Are you okay?

I'm fine.

RECIPIENT EUN SOOHYUN

Honey.

You went through so much today.

You must be tired.

No, I'm fine.

I'm afraid you'll come down with something.

Suho...

I think your mother's here. What do we do?

If you're not feeling well, let's reschedule this.

No, I'm fine. Let's not keep her waiting.

Okay.

Coming.

Mom, how is it?

-You should try too. -There we go.

Why are you bringing so much?

It's not much, but eat up.

Wow, it smells great!

-Am I late? -You said you couldn't come.

It's a historical moment for this couple.

I can't miss it. I rearranged my schedule.

Suho, it's great to see you.

-It's been a while. How have you been? -Yes.

-A seat. -Soohyun.

What did you buy?

This is the bestselling golf wear in our store.

I brought it for you. You golf, right?

Yes. Thank you.

-I appreciate it. -Sure.

-Make sure to take her around more. -I will.

Now, this is for you.

-A scarf. -You didn't need to get me anything!

Of course, I did.

Take a look.

-It's nice. -Goodness.

-Looks good. -It's perfect.

Right, Soohyun?

-Thank you. -Yes.

-I'll bring more plates. -No, it's fine.

-What? -I'll get it.

Honey?

-It airs tomorrow, right? -Yes.

I can't wait to watch it.

-Have you eaten? -No.

It looks so good. Thank you.

Thanks for coming, I know you're busy.

Of course. I had to come.

-Wow, it looks so good. -Why did you buy this?

It's so pretty.

You can just pass it on to me later.

Soohyun, are you okay?

Yes.

I must have an upset stomach.

Can you open the door?

No, it's fine. I'll be out after I brush my teeth.

-Go to bed. -Are you really okay?

Yes.

I'll put some medicine on the table. Take it when you come out.

Okay?

EPISODE 4

-Babe, where are you? -Stop messing around.

Isn't it your day off? Let's get something to eat.

I have plans today.

Really?

How about a late dinner?

Okay. Fine.

What plans do you have today?

Hmm.

Who is he meeting?

TEXTS EUN SOOHYUN

MEET ME AT SOLGANG NURSING CENTER AT 2.

I lost my child.

I still break every day

in a pain that can't be healed.

That's why I came to find you.

But I was wrong.

You were living your life well in your own way.

I am truly sorry.

EUN SOOHYUN

Thank you.

THE NOVEL, LOVE IN TIME, RECEIVED ROSALINE LITERARY AWARD

The son of Eun Soohyun,

the first Korean to win the Rosaline Literary Award,

has tragically died in a car accident.

The driver who killed Gunwoo

was on his way home after receiving a suspended sentence, when he was killed.

After a scuffle, Kang Gunwoo's mother intentionally...

...retaliatory murder to be unacceptable

and an antisocial crime in our society.

Viewers. Just once, think about why...

she had no choice but to do what she did.

Is there anyone out there who can really judge her?

What are you doing?

You're up.

I'm making some porridge.

I don't know how it'll taste.

Why would you do that? I'm sure you're busy with work.

How do you feel?

I feel much better.

I must've been nervous about the show.

I'm relieved.

Are you going to volunteer today?

Yes, I am.

I'd ask you to stay home today if I could.

Don't overdo it, okay?

Yes.

See how it tastes.

-Is it okay? -Yes, it's good.

I'm going to see Taeho for lunch.

When we last saw him,

he looked like a complete bum.

I want to buy him something to eat.

I don't even have time for a shower.

This is my first meal in 10 hours.

I wanted to buy you something good.

At this rate, you'll get sick while treating others.

Don't skip your meals.

I want to,

but I get called whenever I try to sit down.

Still, I'm going to make sure to watch your segment.

No, don't even bring that up.

I regret it so much right now. I should've done it alone.

Why?

Your sister-in-law...

threw up all night last night after the shoot.

It was really hard on her.

But it's not like you forced her to do it.

It's because she made the appearance for me.

I should've stopped her.

-It's my fault. -That's awful.

What is this?

Your wife is sick, and you're upset.

Why am I so jealous?

It feels like I'm experiencing the love of a real couple.

Seriously.

Stop messing around.

Did you look into what I asked you?

I picked a few best for her.

This and this one.

It covers the respiratory system and heart CTs.

You just need to add cerebrovascular MRIs.

Also, you can find disease characteristics with genetic testing.

Yes, okay.

I'll take a look. You eat. You don't have time.

That's right.

I have to go.

-Why? -It's the ER.

-It's a five-car collision TA. -What?

Well...

Hey, hey! At least drink some water. You'll get an upset stomach.

-Take care of that for me. -Yes, okay.

-Call me, okay? -Okay!

It's displayed in the wrong order, Jeongmin.

Ms. Han!

Where shall I display the VIP goods?

-Uh, near the window by the entrance. -Okay.

Okay.

SOOHYUN, IS EVERYTHING OKAY?

-I'll bring more plates. -No, it's fine.

-What? -I'll get it.

Honey?

Yuri!

-Oh my god! -It's been a while!

Mary and Jazz, how have you been?

-Great. -Yeah, we just wanted to visit your shop

-while traveling. Yes. -Traveling? So nice!

-Oh. This is awesome. -Awesome?

-Yes. -Thank you. Come here.

-I will show you around. -Okay.

-Wow. -Jazz.

Sorry!

The woman.

Who is she?

Don't come here anymore.

There's no room for you...

in my life anymore.

You really...

don't need me in your life?

No.

That's when it was.

Then who sent this to me?

Yes, I'm the one who put the envelope

in the waiting room that day.

By chance,

do you remember who you got it from?

It was a deliveryman.

Things were hectic because of the shoot, so I don't remember anything else.

A man asked me to get it to you.

Okay, thank you.

I'm Gwon Seonyul.

Why are you doing this?

What are you doing?

Don't do this.

You bastard!

Why did you come back here?

-Tell me. Where's your bank book? -You took it last time.

-Why do you want it? -Damn it!

-Tell me right now! -Goodness.

-Where is it? -Good grief.

What are you doing?

Damn it! Move!

-Goodness! -Yes, take it and sell it!

You worthless punk!

-It's got to be worth something! -Hey!

-Tell me! -Goodness!

-Gracious! -Goodness, what's he doing?

Goodness!

Tell me!

Wait...

Look at me. Right here.

He did that to me.

Wow, I've never seen trash talk before.

You little punk!

Detective, let's follow the law.

Both of you, be quiet.

Even if it was legitimate,

you'll face criminal charges if you don't settle.

Is there no one for you to call?

No.

I'm his guardian.

Who asked you to settle with a creep like that?

Follow me.

Do you always use your fists first?

Just give me the diary.

If you don't settle,

will you go to jail?

Would that make you feel better?

I don't think I did anything wrong.

I know.

I think that too.

But the world doesn't.

They'll just... remember you as an ex-con.

I'm telling you that

as someone who's experienced it.

I mean it.

I don't want your life to end here.

Think of the settlement as my investment in your future.

Here's your food.

The settlement money.

I'll pay you back.

Yes, sure. Pay me back.

I know where you live too.

But...

why are you talking so casually to me?

Can't I?

Do whatever you want.

Can I order some dumplings?

Can we get a plate of dumplings?

Sure.

By chance...

If you go through a hard time after reading this,

call me.

And...

don't try to dull the pain.

Make sure to treat your wound.

It was taken with a film camera.

The photo from earlier.

Thank you.

They used a CineColor 800T tungsten film.

The person who took it is a professional.

I know a bit about photos.

You can call me if you need my help.

-Isn't she the author? -It's the kid's mom.

-Goodness. -She was released from jail.

Hyegeum, have some tea!

-Yes, Hyegeum. Come on. -Maybe later.

Get in.

We're going in the same direction. I'll give you a ride.

Come on.

We took that on our first overseas trip with Heejae.

Drink it.

I wanted to have a cup of tea with you.

People will talk

if you hang out with me.

It doesn't matter.

You were the same.

Don't you remember?

Heejae's nickname was "Bubble Freak."

He would foam at the mouth whenever he had a seizure.

So the kids gave him that nickname.

But...

Gunwoo approached him and said,

"Heejae isn't a bubble freak.

"He is the best soccer player in the world."

He said that's what his mom told him.

I cried so much that day.

No one would let their kids play with Heejae.

You let Gunwoo play with him.

When my friends were...

taking the college entrance exams,

I was lying in a hospital bed about to give birth to Heejae and I thought,

"I shouldn't have had him."

That's who I was,

and I learned so much from watching you.

You really are a good mother.

I...

am not qualified to hear that.

No.

Thank you for teaching me

and taking care of me as well.

I promise to repay...

that debt.

-You should go inside. -Okay, bye.

I was comforted today thanks to you.

I'm his guardian.

I don't want your life to end here.

Don't try to dull the pain.

Make sure to treat your wound.

Honey, I'm home.

Wow, what's this?

I wanted to have some wine with you.

That's good.

Your favorite. Misty Blue.

It's been years since I got you flowers.

Thanks.

I'm going to go change.

I drank this wine in the States. The aroma was so nice.

I wanted to drink it with you one day.

I can't believe that day has come.

Here.

It's nice.

How was your day?

I volunteered.

I had some tea with Heejae's mom at her house.

Heejae's mom?

The next door neighbor.

Yes. I ran into her by chance on my way home.

She said...

I was a good mother.

Of course.

You are a good mother.

A good wife too.

Honey.

Did something happen today?

You're being strange.

Yes.

To be honest

I have something to talk to you about.

Really? What is it?

Someone sent me this.

What have you been doing?

Why did I get something like this?

Soohyun.

I once thought that

while you were apart from me,

you could meet another woman.

If...

you were in love with someone else,

I'd have to let you go one day.

What are you saying?

You know how I feel and why I came back to you.

I'm really sorry.

It was my mistake.

Anything I say will sound like an excuse right now,

but the truth is...

it was brief and happened while we were apart.

But this...

It meant nothing. It's not even worth remembering.

I just...

It's all in the past.

Before and now,

you're the only one for me.

Believe me.

Okay.

Perhaps

that's what I wanted to hear.

You said it's in the past.

I won't blame you.

Let's bury it.

We agreed to start over.

I'm so sorry.

I will never...

disappoint you again.

I promise.

Okay.

That photo...

you can throw that away.

The day we did the broadcast together,

a man came to the station and asked to relay that photo to me.

By chance,

do you have any idea who it could be?

No.

Congressman Choi Juseok said

he'd support Congressman Kim Joon today.

He officially announced that he'd give up running for the primary.

Therefore, the candidates who have passed

the preliminary rounds have now been reduced to three candidates

and an intense three-way competition is expected to take place.

According to a recent poll,

Candidates Kim Joon and Son Hyeonmin are in a close race.

Congressman Choi Juseok's supporters could be absorbed...

-Yes. -It's going according to plan. Good job.

-Do you want to go on vacation? -No, I'm fine.

It has been raising a lot of questions. Kim Joon had normally been

-called an internal sniper... -You coming?

...but has shown a completely different side.

Did you break all the plates I made you?

Why is this all you have?

What's this?

I got it today.

Where did you get it?

Shall I sleepover tonight?

Why not? I feel like I should protect you today.

Still, I got to see you smile. That's good enough.

That woman said

she was my guardian.

She said to call if I ever need to.

Hey!

Are you talking about another woman in front of me?

Is it good?

Gonggam Talk Show will be starting after this,

with anchorman Kang Suho and writer Eun Soohyun.

Today on Gonggam Talk Show, the new face of ABS's 8 O'clock News.

We have Anchorman Kang Suho and his wife here with us today.

Yes.

I really wanted to meet you.

Recently, you won the grand prize for journalists.

-Yes. Thank you. -Congratulations. Yes.

As for Ms. Eun Soohyun,

you took quite the difficult step.

I was...

the mother of a child...

...whose life was more precious than mine.

And...

I lost that child overnight.

Great job.

He was a child who loved the stars,

and he became a star to us.

I try to accept that every day,

but there are times when I can't.

A parent who loses a child

still hurts no matter how much time passes.

Still...

I think it's time...

...to let everything go and forget.

My wife and I

have endured a hard time together.

It has made us stronger.

-The comments are good. -...our feelings for one another...

I CRIED WATCHING THIS

...have strengthened.

KANG SUHO IS LIKE A MOVIE STAR HE'S AWESOME!

That will never change.

To all the parents out there who have been through the same pain...

This is it.

It has to ferment to taste like this.

...you can endure it.

Thank you.

-Director Kang. -Sir, hello.

-Hello. -Yes.

The response from the segment was good.

I feel at ease now.

I'll put my faith in you.

-I'm leaving. -Thank you.

-Goodbye. -Bye.

-You two looked great. -So impressive.

-You were great. -Congrats!

How is he like that?

Yes?

It's the security footage of the day you asked for.

Great job.

I checked the security footage, but I couldn't find him.

Ta-da!

Soohyun, try this.

This place is famous. The pastry chef here's dating my employee.

I put in a good word.

Thanks.

Soohyun.

Is something wrong?

It's just, before...

you didn't seem well at the barbeque party at your house.

You didn't text me back either.

-Yuri. -Yes?

When I...

gave you my divorce papers.

I was

really going to let Suho go.

I know.

How could I not know that?

I told him to get out of my life.

That there was no place for him anymore.

I said awful things to him.

I hoped he'd meet someone else

and live a happier life.

To forget about me and start over.

But...

a person's feelings are so strange.

It felt awful knowing

that he actually met someone else.

Someone else?

What are you saying?

Suho...

was seeing another woman.

Did he say that?

No.

Someone sent me a picture of them to me.

Then you know who the other woman is.

I don't know.

Her face can't be seen in the photo.

It's for the best.

If I had seen her, it would be on my mind forever.

What did Suho say?

Did you talk to him?

Yes.

Last night.

He said she meant nothing

and wasn't even worth remembering.

We agreed to bury it.

But...

I don't think I meant it.

I understood it in my mind.

I know he went through a hard time after we separated.

What can I do about someone he met during that time?

Not to mention,

he says it's all in the past.

But I can't help but wonder

about who sent that photo to me.

I can't stop thinking about who the woman in the photo is.

Soohyun.

Just because you get hit by lightning,

enduring a rain shower

doesn't get any easier.

Why am I letting this bother me?

Aren't you a woman too?

Although it's the past, it'll still bother you.

But, Soohyun,

just bury it.

Don't look back.

Suho told you.

That she wasn't even worth remembering.

The person he really loves...

is only you.

I can guarantee that.

I've seen it for myself.

Hello?

I'll be right there.

Sorry.

-Something came up at work. -Go ahead.

-I'll call you later. -Okay.

-Mom. -Hey.

You called.

I didn't know. I was grocery shopping.

Yes.

I just wanted to hear your voice.

Then come by.

I want to see you too.

Yes, the farmer's market.

They have fresh goods.

I bought a few things while I was there.

I guess I lost track of time.

That's too heavy for you. Your wrists are bad.

You should've gone with me.

My daughter's too precious for that.

Shall I...

come see you now?

Do you want to? I'd love that.

What shall I make you? Tell me what you want to eat.

What's this?

Hello?

Mom?

I just got some mail.

There's no return address and nothing's written on it.

Mom.

Mom?

Mom!

Mom?

Mom?

Mom.

Mom?

How did you find me?

Mom.

I am...

I'm okay.

You...

know?

Suho.

I didn't want to let him get away with this.

I wanted to go see him.

But I couldn't bring myself to go.

I didn't want to hurt you more.

You did well, Mom.

He said it's all in the past.

It happened while we were apart, Mom.

That bastard.

He should've held back.

My daughter loses her child overnight.

While she was enduring on that cold prison floor...

He should've held back.

Wait.

Did someone send you that photo too?

Who did it?

Was it the woman in the photo?

I don't know.

How dare they mess with my daughter?

I'm going to find them and teach them a lesson.

Just as Gunwoo was the world to you,

it's the same for me.

There's nothing I wouldn't do for you.

Soohyun.

Mom.

I'm so sorry.

I'm sorry to worry you again like this.

Why would anyone do this to my poor daughter?

Mom, I'm okay. It's fine.

Good. Smile just a little.

Okay.

What a picture.

You look great.

-Great job. -Are we done?

Great job.

Good work.

It's more of a pictorial than a newsletter.

How can an anchorman look better than an actor?

It wasn't easy.

-Good luck. -Okay.

-Great job. Thank you. -Wonderful work.

Hello?

I wanted to check something with you.

Was it you?

Did you send the photo?

Let's talk in person.

#701, CINDERIA HOTEL

ST. ANDREA ORPHANAGE

Here it is.

It's the last picture before you left the orphanage.

Yes, anything new?

He must not even go to a hospital.

There are no medical insurance records, and his current address is unknown.

Go through criminal records.

Aren't you working me too hard?

Still, I'll do everything you ask me to.

You owe me chicken and beer.

St. Andrea village

Hey, Soohyun.

When will you be finished?

I think my meeting's going to run late today.

I'll call you as soon as it's over.

Okay.

I think my meeting's going to run late today.

I know who you're with right now.

There was a tail today.

Things like this...

don't hurt at all.

Seeing as you thought I sent it,

it must've been very expensive.

What does this have to do with the photo?

Words can be a scary thing.

It can get so inflated.

What...

are you doing here?
