Angel Eyes
Organ Transplantation Coordinator Room.
I'm sorry. Donor and recipient information is not released as a rule.
Even if the person wanting to know is the donor or recipient.
Soo Wan.
Hello.
Hi. What brings you here to see me?
This is the information from the organ transplant center. A long time has passed.
And I think you have good intentions.
It's only for you right?
Yes thank you.
Okay bye.
Operation Record.
Doctor - Dr. Oh Young Ji. Donor - Yoo Jung Hwa Age 42.
Donor Information. Name - Yoo Jung Hwa.
Recipient name.
Yoon Soo Wan.
Your call cannot be completed.
Soo Wan.
You should have called me even if it's your day off.
Are you getting revenge?
Dong Joo.
Yeah?
I want to go somewhere.
Where?
Dong Joo.
Yeah.
My donor...
The person I'm thankful for...
Was that person Jung Hwa?
Soo Wan.
Baby.
Cry if you want.
Babies cry when they're upset.
That's what mothers arms are for.
I really want to see.
I want to see you Hye Joo and Dong Joo.
I really want to see you all.
You will.
I promise.
My pretty baby.
I wish I could give you my eyes.
I wish I could.
Actually I'm a little scared Dong Joo.
I'm waiting to find out whether I'll get a transplant today.
It's terrible isn't it?
To get what I want...
someone has to lose their life.
That means I have to hope for someone to die.
It was Jung Hwa.
Soo Wan.
It was Jung Hwa.
Mom.
I didn't know anything.
I just ate pumpkin porridge.
I didn't know it was you Mom.
I was grateful and happy it happened.
I was happy. I was happy.
I was happy.
No.
Don't.
Mom...
Jung Hwa wanted it.
It was what she hoped for until the end.
She wanted you to be able to see...
everything beautiful and good again.
She said it was her wish.
Why didn't you tell me?
Why?
Because you might react like this.
Jung Hwa told me not to.
If you knew...
If you knew you would feel bad.
You wouldn't be happy even if you could see.
You'd just be sad.
She told me never to tell you.
Don't cry.
Don't hurt.
If you do...
Jung Hwa will be mad.
How could you look at me?
Were you okay even though you knew everything?
When I first saw you again
it was fascinating...
to see you look at me.
You looked at me directly.
The fact that our eyes met...
It was like a dream.
Those eyes...
I had missed them so much.
I was so happy.
I finally understood...
why Jung Hwa did it.
Dong Joo.
Don't be sad.
Don't be sorry.
You can see flowers...
stars...
and my face again and smile.
That's what Jung Hwa wanted.
Dong Joo.
So smile.
You just have to smile.
Like you said
you're going to live well and with gratitude.
You have to keep doing that.
Okay?
Do you know the first thing I want you to see?
You.
You don't know how pretty you are.
Jung Hwa help me.
So she won't hurt.
And I can protect her.
Soo Wan.
Dad.
That person...
My donor...
was Jung Hwa...
Dong Joo's mother.
You didn't know did you?
How...
...did you find out?
I found out Jung Hwa donated her corneas.
I had a strange feeling...
so I looked into it.
Soo Wan.
Are you alright?
I'm not.
I can't be.
It's shocking and outrageous.
How could it be Jung Hwa?
It felt different.
I know.
I was so sad and sorry. I felt guilty.
It hurt.
I know.
But Dad Dong Joo...
said he was happy...
that I was smiling at him with Jung Hwa's eyes.
He told me he was happy.
I could see flowers stars and you again.
It was a gift to make me smile again.
If I'm sad and sorry Jung Hwa will be angry.
I'm grateful.
I'm so grateful.
You cried all night didn't you?
Are you going to be like this?
I'm trying not to. But I keep crying.
I'm going to tell Jung Hwa.
Dong Joo.
Yeah?
Does Hye Joo know?
I never told her because she was so young.
I see.
Even if she finds out later she'll understand.
I'm still sorry.
Yoon Soo Wan.
Think about it.
If you were Jung Hwa or Hye Joo what would you have done?
You keep avoiding my eyes and feel sorry to Hye Joo.
Would Mom have wanted you to cry with those pretty eyes?
See?
Dad.
Soo Wan found out...
that your mother was her donor.
Yes.
I'd hoped she wouldn't find out. It ended up like this.
She was in a lot of pain.
But she took it better than I thought.
Thanks to you.
Thank you Dong Joo...
for explaining it to her that way.
Thank you.
It was for Soo Wan's sake.
Please convince her to go to the US quickly.
Dong Joo.
I don't want Soo Wan to keep finding out...
...more unnecessary things.
Convince Soo Wan.
If Soo Wan agrees...
we'll leave right away.
Is there another reason...
for the sudden decision?
Did he just call you Dad?
You're even more amazing than I thought Director.
How can you live hearing that guy call you Dad?
Director.
Dr. Choi.
Dong Joo...
Did you meet with Park Dong Joo?
Tell the truth.
He's finally...
starting to believe me.
What?
He wouldn't believe me.
What did you tell him?
The truth.
As it happened. As I saw it.
But there seems to be another who should know the truth.
Soo Wan.
You can't.
Leave this hospital.
Leave?
Even Park Dong Joo is asking me to keep quiet for Soo Wan's sake.
You can't do this Director.
Dr. Kang.
Get back to work.
Is the ER work demanding?
It's okay.
But at least you get to see Team Leader Yoon often.
Oh yeah. Is Team Leader Yoon okay?
What?
Why?
What? Didn't she tell you?
Tell me what?
Tissue Evaluation Report.
Evaluation by Dr. Oh Young Ji.
Yoo Jung Hwa.
Park Dong Joo's mother...
...was Soo Wan's donor?
Are you okay now?
Promise me...
that you won't cry anymore.
Go in.
Dong Joo.
Let's stay like this for five more minutes.
What did you tell him?
The truth.
As it happened. As I saw it.
But there seems to be another who should know the truth.
Soo Wan.
I'm home.
Dad!
Dad what's wrong?
Dad!
Dad.
Hello.
Dong Joo.
My dad...
- My dad... - What is it?
What's wrong?
Dong Joo.
I'm alright.
I don't need it.
It's nothing.
The pain is short-term and getting more persistent.
Did he take an antigen?
Yeah.
You need an evaluation and treatment at the hospital.
I know my illness well.
It's not time yet.
Dong Joo came for nothing.
You can go.
Please rest.
Dong Joo.
Unless he goes to the hospital there's not much we can do.
Convince him to get evaluated as soon as possible.
I'm leaving.
You're leaving?
He's stable now.
Let's wait and see.
How is he?
The Director.
He hasn't gotten worse.
But he won't go to the hospital.
I feel weird.
You're a doctor and I'm a paramedic.
It's our job to rescue and treat others.
But I didn't notice my only family member until he collapsed.
It's hard to know those closest to us.
Even though Dad's a doctor he doesn't care about his own health.
I don't know what he would do without me.
Dong Joo.
Let's rethink going to the US.
Let's rethink who comes first us or Dad.
Please?
- It's perfect for Captain Park. - Oh yeah.
Excuse me.
Is Team Leader Yoon here?
Hey.
Ahjussi.
Hello.
You were a bakery owner?
Yes I'm not that skilled but I was able to feed my family.
I couldn't compete with the bakery inside the new supermarket.
I couldn't survive and had no hope.
I wanted to die every time I drank.
You always came to rescue and worried over someone like me.
You did call us a lot.
But I guess even I'm a human being.
When I saw these two fall with me
I thought I was going to die.
My next thought...
was that I killed these innocent people too.
I thought I was going to pee in my pants that day.
When I woke up the first thought I had...
was that people had risked their lives for me.
I can't live this way.
Of course you can't.
So...
as soon as I was discharged...
I cleaned up my shop and started to bake again.
It's all thanks to you.
Thank you everyone.
Thank you Team Leader Yoon.
Thank you Team Leader Ki.
It's no big deal.
We're grateful for your change of heart and fresh start. Right Team Leader Yoon?
Yes.
Where is your bakery? We'll become regulars.
Don't change your mind.
Boy you're so strong.
Let's eat.
It's delicious.
We're home.
Welcome.
Oh my.
Daddy welcome home.
Did you have a good day son?
Jin Mo and I made pork cutlet today.
Because you like it.
Wow really? It sounds so good.
We made a lot so eat up.
Thank you. Let's eat.
Thank you. Um Hye Joo.
I like pork cutlets too.
Teddy you eat a lot too.
Now let's eat.
You have to eat a lot.
Okay.
Thank you for the food.
Eat a lot.
- Wow. - Eat more.
Oh.
Thanks.
Jin Mo chew well. Is it yummy?
It's really yummy.
Do you want more?
The noodles are good right?
Yes.
Chew well.
Enjoy.
Daddy's smell.
Oh I'm sorry!
I should have knocked but the door was open.
I'm really sorry.
It's okay. I'm done.
Is it a sober examination today?
It's not an examination today.
It's an important question.
Park Dong Joo and his family...
What did they mean to Soo Wan?
You asked me before...
A love like a sudden downpour.
Is that why your love was gone in a second?
Park Dong Joo's strength...
was not only in the simple memories of a first love.
Back then I witnessed Soo Wan's dark despair.
She was just barely alive. But Dong Joo's family appeared and she grew bright.
In particular Dong Joo's mother. How do I say it?
I can't think of any other words.
She was Soo Wan's sun. Like sunlight to her.
She called Dong Joo's mother "Mom" and she wasn't in the dark anymore.
She was such a good person.
She was so important to them.
I really wanted to find the perpetrator.
You know she died in a car accident right?
Yes.
Dr. Kang.
I acknowledge your love.
I know my acknowledgment doesn't matter.
But I'll say one thing as a long-time observer.
Go ahead.
Don't torture yourself...
...with hope.
Let Soo Wan go.
Letting go is love too.
When I had no hope
it was more torturous for me.
If there is a one percent chance
it's not torture...
it's a reason to live.
I remembered something I have to do.
Thank you Detective Cha.
Mom.
Please watch over Dad.
I heard about...
your mother from Detective Cha.
What she meant to Soo Wan.
Just hearing about it...
...hurt my heart.
I'm sure she wished for Soo Wan's happiness when she gave her eyes to her.
Dr. Kang.
I understand Father too.
He must have felt so desperate.
It wasn't hateful or frightening.
I felt sorry for him and felt sad.
How did you find out?
How much do you know?
Everything.
All of it.
I know everything...
that has to do with Soo Wan.
Didn't you know everything from the beginning too?
That Father is responsible for your mother's death.
It wasn't a simple medical mistake. It was to give Soo Wan sight.
Didn't you already know?
Dr. Kang.
Knowing that how could you want to be with Soo Wan?
If Soo Wan finds out do you think she'll be okay?
Stop.
You'll guard her?
And protect her?
Do you really think that's possible?
Even if you run away to a deserted island she'll always be in danger and unhappy.
Don't you get it?
You are the one person...
who cannot be near Soo Wan.
Stop it.
Leave by yourself.
The only thing you have to offer Soo Wan...
...is the miserable truth.
You must be tired from working night shift. Go home and rest Teddy.
Okay.
Teddy!
Yeah?
Thanks.
For what?
I kept forgetting to buy aftershave.
You're sharper than you look.
Thanks. Next time I'll buy you one okay?
You totally got the scent right.
Hi.
It's Teddy.
Can we meet today?
Okay.
You must be busy.
What is it? Did Jin Mo and ahjussi fight again?
It's not that.
I got my paycheck today.
Paycheck?
So?
I wanted to treat you.
Why?
What?
Why would you want to treat me?
Well...
- We're both from overseas... - Oh yeah Texas.
Right?
Yeah Texas.
I keep forgetting.
You don't have friends in Korea either?
Yeah.
Okay. Let's be friends.
Really?
What kind of food does ahjussi like?
He works out a lot right?
He must be a good driver right?
What's his favorite number?
What kind of music does he like?
It's good. Isn't this expensive?
It's not. I got paid today. Please eat.
Why aren't you on a date on your payday?
Now that you bring it up Grandmother.
There's this girl.
She always smiles at this guy.
She always asks "What does he eat? What does he like?"
She's only curious about that.
What...
...does that mean?
You know already.
Sweetie.
A one-sided love is still love.
But it may hurt because you're left wanting.
It hurts when you think about that person.
But it's still better to know love right?
Yeah.
That's enough then.
You're right.
Grandmother what flavor should I buy next time? What do you like?
I like everything.
Okay.
Mr. Lee Jung Hyuk?
Yes that's me.
You witnessed the car accident?
Yes.
Hey where's my reward?
If we confirm the information helps catching the suspect we'll file a request and it will be wired to you.
It'll take awhile. I'll let you know.
You're not giving it to me today?
How much is the reward?
It said $500 on the banner.
In cooperation with the victim's family and the police...
Is that all?
Twelve years ago the reward was $2000 in cash on the spot.
What are you talking about?
It's true.
A detective at the Se Young Police Station gave it to me.
They called me an outstanding citizen and paid the money even after they found the suspect.
Jeez.
You got a reward even though the suspect was already in custody?
That's what I said.
At the Sewondong intersection the ahjumma on the bike.
Have you eaten ahjussi?
Eaten?
Not yet.
Let's go eat. It's my treat.
Really?
Yes. What do you like?
Se Young Police Station. Cha Min Soo.
That was a good meal.
This is really important ahjussi.
I'll reward you.
You have to trust and only contact me.
Okay okay.
Keep your promise officer unni.
Okay. Bye.
Thanks for the food.
Bye.
What is this a sweet potato field? The more I dig the more comes out.
Director Yoon.
Choi Jin Sang.
He shouldn't have been allowed back.
Why?
Did something happen?
Dong Joo...
He found out everything.
Choi Jin Sang told him.
Really?
What did Dong Joo say?
Nothing.
He acts like he doesn't know.
He just wants to...
leave with Soo Wan to the US.
Young Ji.
I regretted that moment every day.
I should have admitted it and been punished.
I should have begged Dong Joo for forgiveness on my knees.
No.
This is a cowardly excuse.
Twelve years...
For twelve years...
I had the chance to admit my mistake.
I...
ran away instead.
In the end...
they were in love...
and wanted to marry.
When they asked for permission...
I lost my chance to admit my mistake...
...forever.
It was for your child.
Not your own happiness.
But for Soo Wan's.
If you admit the truth now...
do you think Soo Wan will thank you?
Think only of Soo Wan.
You protected her this far.
Graphic record.
Did you drink even though you're not feeling well?
Soo Wan.
Yes.
Don't worry about me.
Dad.
Please go to the US with Dong Joo.
As soon as possible.
His youth and skill are valuable.
Don't waste time because of your old father.
Dad.
You love each other.
You...
love Dong Joo.
Yes.
Then think of him too.
I'm fine now.
How can I leave you like this?
I'll go too.
I'll follow soon.
After I take care of the hospital.
Really?
Yes.
So please.
Don't lose Dong Joo. Go quickly.
Woo Jung.
I guess the time has come to join you.
I...
want to escape this hell.
Once I see them off...
I'll have no regrets.
What did you have to say Dr. Park?
I'm sorry to say...
I must return to the US.
What?
Please don't tell the others yet.
I'm preparing to end my work here.
I already got permission from the Director.
Jeez everyone will be disappointed.
I'm sorry.
I knew you couldn't stay long but I guess there's no other choice.
Alright.
What is it?
A report.
Were you talking about something serious with the Chief?
Oh not really.
Why?
Let's go somewhere after work.
Where?
If you don't go you'll regret it.
So?
What did he see?
He saw an imported car coming at her.
And?
He heard sounds of a crash but left because it's common very early in the morning.
Seeking witnesses.
On 2/28/2002 at 5:30am...
A woman in her forties on a bike was hit by a hit-and-run driver.
Contact Detective Kim Woo Chul.
Are you Lee Jung Hyuk?
Yes.
Did you call? I was waiting.
Hello.
Come with me.
Yes.
I never got that phone call or met him.
He gave him an envelope with $2000 right there.
$2000?
He wasn't questioned in detail. He even asked about writing a report at the station.
He told him the suspect had been caught but rewarded him for being a good citizen.
He believed that fraud?
What do the citizens know? It's just free money.
One thing is for certain.
I don't know who but someone apprehended the witness.
Right.
I didn't even know that.
Did you secure the witness?
He's a critical witness in this case.
I told him he should only contact me.
That's not enough. Ugh it's so frustrating being stuck here.
Park Dong Joo is leaving as planned.
What happened to Kim Woo Chul and Cha Min Soo?
Kim Woo Chul is stuck in the hospital.
And Cha Min Soo is quiet too.
Thank goodness.
Keep checking.
Welcome.
Hello.
Let me see.
What would look best?
Soo Wan.
There's nothing as powerful as Jung Hwa's ring but something strong enough to tie down Park Dong Joo.
I want one too.
I convinced Dad.
He's coming too.
He wants us to get married quickly.
Good job.
Okay.
Thank you.
Are you alright these days?
Yeah.
Okay.
Thank goodness.
Ji Woon.
I want you to be happy.
I wish I was the one...
who made you happy.
But as long as you're happy...
I can endure it.
Ji Woon.
But Dylan...
Park Dong Joo is not the one Soo Wan.
Don't.
I don't want to be disappointed in you.
Think it over. There's no rush.
We're getting married soon.
And we're leaving for Boston.
Soo Wan.
Bye.
I regretted that moment every day.
I should have admitted it and been punished.
I should have begged Dong Joo for forgiveness on my knees.
No this is a cowardly excuse.
Twelve years...
For twelve years...
I had a chance to admit my mistake. But I ran away instead.
Yoon Soo Wan.
The ring you ordered has been delivered.
Hold on I'm almost done.
I'll leave first today.
What?
I have plans.
Really?
Do you need a ride?
No. See you.
Choi Jin Sang.
I heard you met him.
Yes.
You must want to ask me something.
I don't.
You must want to confirm something.
I don't.
Please go.
What do you want me to ask?
Instead of saving my mother...
did you take off her oxygen mask and kill her?
You're not the father who raised me out of love...
but did it to appease your own guilt...
because you're a murderer?
The fact that it was a result of a doctor's desire to give his daughter sight?
Don't do this.
Get up.
It's...
...all my fault.
No!
That's not what I want to hear.
That's not the answer.
Is that why you came to find me?
Is that why you tried to separate me from Soo Wan?
Is that why you forbade me?
Dong Joo.
That...
Don't say a word.
Not a word.
Don't say one word. No excuses or apologies.
Dong Joo.
Don't call me like that!
In my life...
you no longer exist.
However
I will take Soo Wan.
I'm going to marry her...
and take her to the US with me.
So Soo Wan can never know.
You know better than I do...
why that must be.
The only thing I have left...
...is Soo Wan.
To protect Soo Wan...
I will do anything.
