(Episode 9)
All right.
Gosh, you're really good making stuff with paper.
What else should I make?
Forget it.
I miss Dad.
Is he not coming home tonight either?
The detective and the lady are looking for him, so be patient.
Then should we wait for him at the bus stop?
Let's find out if he remembers to buy chicken.
Sa Rang.
Hurry up.
Sa Rang, close your eyes.
Why?
Just do it.
Are you done?
Hold on.
Are you done?
Just wait.
I'm done. Open your eyes.
Here.
My goodness!
What is this?
Whenever we miss Dad, let's look at that and wait, okay?
Okay.
Dad, where are you?
We miss you terribly.
You better hurry up.
Patient Seo Bin Hee on the third floor,
please come to the visiting room on the first floor.
The nurses were startled at first.
They came in to check on him and saw these drawings.
So they brought him some paper.
He's been drawing the same thing ever since.
Then...
has my nephew finally fully regained his consciousness?
He's suffering from PTA.
PTA?
During the accident, his temporal lobe was injured,
so he's suffering from post-traumatic amnesia.
That means...
he may not remember anything at all.
Do you know her?
Why do you ask?
Seeing how he keeps drawing her,
she must've been of great importance to him.
If he sees her,
it'll greatly help him regain his memory.
Okay, I got it.
I'll look into it.
Hey.
Do you...
really not recognize me?
Eun Dong Joo!
I am right, aren't I?
It's your real name.
Answer me.
You are Eun Dong Joo,
right?
What are you talking about?
Hold on.
Repeat what you just said.
Who do you think I am?
Eun Dong Joo. That's your real name.
It is, isn't it?
Don't tell me you forgot your own name.
You're Eun Dong Joo, not me.
Please. Please tell me the truth.
It's because of the kids.
The kids have become orphaned...
What is this about?
Why are you acting so rudely and blabbering...
such obnoxious things?
It's not that. What I mean is,
Lee Sung Wook went missing all of a sudden...
That's enough.
Stay out of this from now on.
I'm sorry.
I need to investigate something, so I'd appreciate your cooperation.
If you want, we can go somewhere else.
What is your intention?
Why do you keep drawing her?
I have never...
liked you my entire life.
Even worse,
you disgust me and make my blood boil.
You should know your place.
You're just a kid.
You tempted a young girl and ruined her life.
And now,
you ran into her car and became a living dead.
All I have for you is hatred.
Do you know what your sin is?
If the world didn't help you regarding your situation,
you should've tried with all your might to make it better.
So how dare you drag my daughter into your misery?
As if that wasn't enough,
you're grabbing onto her even now.
If you had a slight bit of conscience,
you may have tempted her,
but you shouldn't have ruined her life!
So please forget about her.
Forget her.
Forget her!
What is it?
I'm in trouble.
The police know my name.
How? How did they find out?
They said Lee Sung Wook went missing...
and asked me if I was his kids' mother, Eun Dong Joo.
Calm down.
You need to be calm at times like this.
Mom, please!
Give me a minute.
Just tell them the truth.
If you give them a lousy lie,
they'll find out.
What are you planning to do?
There's only one way out of this.
Wait.
All right. Shall we begin?
What are you curious about?
This could get personal,
so let's talk in private.
No, thank you.
I have nothing to hide from him.
And even if I did,
I don't want to any longer.
All right, then.
I'll ask some questions.
First,
you do know Lee Sung Wook, don't you?
Yes.
I do know him.
Sa... Sabina.
See? What did I tell you?
Look at this.
During the event at Callas Gallery,
he caused a scene...
in front of you.
What was that about?
It was nothing. He barged in and...
He called me...
Eun Dong Joo.
He also said I was Mid Eum's mother.
Mid Eum's mother?
So I'm right. That means everything's true.
Come on.
I'm just frustrated.
The kids don't even know if their dad is alive or dead.
Be quiet.
This morning, you went to his house on a hillside...
in Paran-dong, right?
And you met that boy, Mid Eum.
- Hold on. - You're right.
It's all true.
I did meet...
his son.
What's going on?
Why did you go there?
Then you must've seen this as well.
Yes.
Of course, I have.
Then do you acknowledge...
that this is...
you?
I do.
Then I have one last question.
What's your relationship with Lee Sung Wook?
Is what he said true?
Are you his ex-wife who abandoned her kids 12 years ago...
and the biological mother...
of Mid Eum?
Everything you said up until now...
is true.
I do know Lee Sung Wook.
And I did meet his son this morning.
And...
the drawing is me.
Does that mean...
you acknowledge the fact that you two were married before?
Is he your ex-husband?
He is...
Well...
Lee Sung Wook...
was...
A stalker.
I hurried over after receiving a call from her.
I was going to call the police anyway.
What nice timing.
Wait. What did you just say?
- He's a stalker? - Yes.
We 1st met him 2 years ago.
After watching her on TV, he approached her.
I don't know how much they look alike,
but he's been claiming that my daughter is his ex-wife...
and has been tormenting her ever since.
That's ridiculous.
He's such a great father to his kids.
Do you have any proof he's a stalker?
He sent these to us.
Every time we moved, he somehow found out the address...
and sent numerous drawings.
Why didn't you report this to the police?
What could you have done?
If I did report him,
he would've retaliated.
If I provoked him,
my daughter could've been in danger.
Then why did you go to his house this morning?
If you were so afraid of him, why did you go there?
I wanted to dissuade him...
from doing this.
There's only so much we can take.
He knew Sabina's schedule...
and approached her while disguised as a valet parking agent.
If it were you, would you have stood still and watched?
He wasn't home,
so I could only meet his son.
If you can't believe us, call him over.
Call him here immediately and let's talk face to face.
I can't take this any longer.
So call him right now.
Mom.
Calm down.
No.
I'm going to see the end of this today.
Well... He's...
He's missing at the moment.
Missing?
Does that mean...
you were interrogating her to find out his whereabouts?
I got it.
I'm sorry for offending you.
I truly am.
I'd like to ask you for a favor.
If you bother her like this one more time,
I won't stand still.
Do remember that.
- Let's go. - Hold on.
- But still... - Let's go.
Wait.
Are you okay?
Don't worry.
I'll protect you so that this won't happen again.
What do you mean?
I'm going to tell my mom tonight...
that I'm going to marry you.
Joon Ki.
She can't stop me anymore.
[VIU Ver] MBC E09 'Golden Garden' "Sabina Gets Questioned" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
Are you seriously leaving?
Are you going to blindly believe everything they said?
Come on, detective!
There's no way he's a stalker.
His kids love him.
- He's such a great dad. - Shut it.
Didn't you see the video from the event?
He said himself that he was a fan of hers.
I'm warning you.
You better stay out of this.
You're only interrupting my investigation,
so don't try to act smart ever again.
I'm warning you too.
We shouldn't leave like this.
- Think of the kids... - Kids, kids, kids!
Are you their mother?
Stay out of this.
If you don't, I'll put you in jail for obstruction of justice.
I warned you.
My gosh.
Wait for me.
Hey, hey, hey, stop!
Stop!
I didn't bring any money!
Darn it.
Grab a cab.
Gosh!
You're so annoying!
He could've given me five dollars more.
This is nice.
Gorgeous.
Fantastic.
Hey, he's not a kid.
Why are you waiting for a 33-year-old?
If you hold onto a bird because it's pretty,
do you think it'll survive?
Now, stop worrying about him...
and smell this flower.
It's just as pretty as you.
You're seriously one of a kind.
Even if the world fell apart, you'd be relaxed.
Do you think I have the time to smell some flowers?
He said it was an elk.
You should believe him, okay?
Seeing how several days have passed with nothing happening,
it means everything is all right.
I want to believe that,
but what can I do if I'm concerned?
You should direct that concern of yours toward me.
- Okay? - You've gone insane.
Oh, my.
Let me go! How dare you touch me with those filthy hands of yours?
We're a married couple.
Can I not hold my own wife?
Ma'am.
Goodness.
Honey, honey, honey.
Follow me.
What are you doing?
You saw us back there, right?
I want to try again with her.
I set the mood thanks to Joon Ki's accident.
Did you have to get in between?
Han Soo Mi. Listen carefully.
I've always loved and still love her and her only.
And it will stay that way forever.
So?
What does that have to do with me?
I decided to remain here for her, not you.
Darn it!
Do you really not get it?
Your existence itself tortures me.
Whenever I look at you,
I'm in so much pain and cry tears of blood.
Lower your voice!
She might hear you!
I have no idea why you're still working here.
Why are you tormenting me so much?
Have you not tormented me enough?
Do you want me to die?
- Are you taking revenge? - Sir.
You know...
that that's not true.
I don't know.
No matter how many times I think about it, I just don't get it.
But one thing for sure is that...
as long as she trusts you,
my life will be over.
I'll be doomed. Doomed.
Do you understand?
My head is about to explode.
Drink this.
The lavender will calm you.
You were startled today.
Have a sleeping pill and go to bed.
I heard Lee Sung Wook woke up.
Don't worry.
Luckily, he can't remember a thing.
He's a ticking bomb.
We don't know when he'll regain his memory.
Don't you trust me?
We'll dump him somewhere hidden...
before he regains his memory.
Life isn't easy, but it isn't that terrible either.
If you lose one thing, you'll naturally gain another.
See?
This drawing saved you.
Get that out of my sight.
I don't want to see it.
Loosen up, already.
Happiness is just around the corner.
Don't you remember what Director Choi said?
He said he'd persuade his mom this time no matter what.
Chairwoman Jin isn't a pushover.
It'll be very difficult to do that.
Don't worry. You have me right behind you.
Honey.
Are you going to sleep?
Gosh, I'm so knackered.
I should sleep here tonight.
How dare you?
My goodness.
You're being so harsh.
That happened 30 years ago.
We've all gotten older now.
So how could you still be just as jealous?
What?
Jealous?
Did you just say that I'm jealous?
Do you think I'm like this because I'm blinded by jealousy?
Choi Dae Sung!
You betrayed me when I was at rock bottom!
Honey.
I told you that I was wrong.
How much more do I need to apologize for you to forgive me?
There's only one way for me to forgive you.
Tell me.
Tell me who this woman you cheated on me with...
in Spain is!
Come on, honey.
I've been apologizing to you for the past 30 years.
So please. Please.
Please forgive me, will you?
- Let me go! - Honey.
- Let me go! - It was a stranger.
Mom.
Hey, it's getting late.
Darn you. That was great timing.
Do you have something to say?
For my entire life,
I tried my best to obey you.
But of course, it wasn't enough for you.
But I did try.
Don't beat around the bush. What do you need to tell me?
Honey.
It's been a long time since we've gathered together.
Don't intimidate him.
Joon Ki, say whatever you wish.
Don't tell me you're about to repeat what you said...
at the event.
Event?
What did he say?
I don't know how Sabina persuaded you,
but my answer will remain the same.
I won't allow you to get married, so give up.
I'm not asking for your approval.
I'm telling you that I'll be getting married.
What?
What did you just say?
I don't need your approval.
I can't imagine my life without her.
I'll marry her.
And it'll happen as soon as possible.
Joon Ki, that's not right.
Then what are parents for?
I can understand how you feel toward me,
but if you ignore her, you're refusing to be a good son.
I'm not happy with my decision.
I want to receive your blessings and marry proudly.
So...
please accept her.
I beg you.
Joon Ki.
Hey!
My goodness.
He's completely head over heels for her.
Honey.
He's never been this stubborn before.
How about you give in just this once?
Just once.
Do you want to ruin our family?
Joon Ki isn't just my son. He's the heir of I and K.
So how could a good-for-nothing wench like her...
marry him?
So what are you planning to do?
Tomorrow,
I'm going to put an end to this once and for all.
Oh, my gosh.
(Episode 10 will air shortly.)
(Episode 10)
Gosh.
Let me see...
Unbelievable.
The taste always brings back memories.
The extra crispy skin...
reminds me of the kind Dong Joo and I always ate.
You!
Unbelievable.
How many times must I repeat myself?
I told you numerous times not to eat the leftover food!
Leave this as is and wash the dishes instead.
Ma'am, please.
Washing the dishes isn't what's important right now.
How long have you sold fried chicken?
Oh, please.
They did say that big eaters usually ask the most questions.
What on earth do you want to know this time?
How long has it been?
I'm 80 this year,
and I started my business when I was 20.
How many years is it then?
- Once again, you're unbelievable. - 60 years?
Seriously? Is your brain filled with dung?
Why do you need all 10 fingers and toes...
to do simple math?
How pathetic.
The truly pathetic one is you, not me.
You've been selling tasty chicken for 60 years.
How is it that you only made it as far as one store?
I would've earned enough money to buy a building.
Hello, this is Ddobong's Fried Chicken.
What? Fried chicken with galbi seasoning?
You little jerk.
Must you order the dish that takes the most time and effort?
Yes, I know your address.
I'm hanging up.
One order of fried chicken with galbi seasoning.
Ms. Kang!
You weren't able to earn money because of your terrible manners!
Watch what I do carefully...
and learn.
- Give me a bell ring. - What?
What show are you putting on this time?
Ring!
This is a dish you've never tasted before.
Is this fried chicken or is it galbi?
Got it? You try it this time.
Will saying that help me buy a building?
Of course!
It'll even be one in the heart of Gangnam!
Go ahead.
Fine.
There has never been a wench like this before.
Is she a part-timer or is she a fraud?
If you want to parody a famous line,
I suggest you do it properly!
Who on earth are you trying to fool?
Aren't you too old to have watched that movie?
Unbelievable.
Just so you know,
I'm a member of Ryu Seung Ryong's fan club!
Know who you are dealing with!
Grandma, please.
Why are you beating up somebody again?
The ride cost me more than 10 dollars.
Why did you come here instead of going home?
Darn you.
Where are the kids?
Didn't you see them?
Detective Han took them out to take them home.
Why hasn't Dong Joo called?
She went out to find my dad.
She called and told me she wasn't able to.
Mid Eum,
you'll be staying with me tonight,
so tell me whenever your dad calls.
Got it.
Wait!
My backpack!
Mid Eun, where's my backpack?
You must've left it at the chicken place.
Wait here. I'll go and get it.
No, let me.
This is Sa Rang's backpack.
Why would you take that?
Isn't it obvious?
The kids are home alone, so I should keep them company.
Do you have a condition where you forget things?
Do you have amnesia?
What are you talking about?
I warned you earlier...
to not cross the line or interfere with the investigation.
I'm not trying to get in the way.
I just want to make sure the kids are safe...
And who says you're qualified to do so?
Who needs qualifications to look after children?
Are you kidding me?
Hey, you. Who do you think you are...
and what did you ever do...
to earn the right to yell at my grandson?
Just listen to what my grandson says...
and stay cramped up in the corner!
Ms. Kang, how can you say that?
I don't care how precious your grandson is.
What did Dong Joo do wrong to deserve that comment?
If there's anything she's at fault with, it's the fact...
that she's too soft for her own good!
Unbelievable!
Who are you to yell at me hysterically...
at my very own store?
You'll bring bad luck!
You, Big Eyes, step aside for a second.
We should go somewhere quiet where I can teach you a lesson.
All right, fine. Let's see who wins!
- Bring it on! - As if I'd lose!
Guys, please!
Keep it down.
Sister, there's nothing more to talk about.
You're work here is done,
so don't come anywhere near the kids from this moment on.
Got it?
Now run along.
- I told you to leave. Come on. - But...
- Leave. - Wait a second.
Okay, fine!
Unbelievable.
No matter what you say,
I'll look after the kids until their father comes back,
so deal with it.
How can you say that when it could take years?
He lives for his kids,
so I'm sure he'll be back soon.
A man who put his kids first...
wouldn't take the money and run away.
He'll probably go to prison too,
so it might take more than a couple of years.
My gosh.
What about the kids then?
Tell me about it.
Those poor little kids.
What else can be done?
They'll stay in the system until they're of age.
What if only Sa Rang gets adopted?
The siblings will be separated forever.
No progress can be made if we consider all the outcomes.
This discussion ends here, so say no more on the matter.
Our dad isn't a bad man.
He'll come back.
I'm sure he'll come back,
so why must we be separated?
I won't...
I won't let that happen.
I won't let anyone take my sister!
Dad...
(Dad, I love you!)
Ms. Kang, it's me.
My goodness.
What brings you by so early in the morning?
I stopped by on my way to work.
Tomorrow is the anniversary of your son and his wife's death.
Why would you still remember the date?
It's about time you forgot.
Chairwoman Jin sent it.
She's as sorry as always.
That fool.
She tries to look formidable, but she's a softy on the inside.
Why does she need to apologize?
It was his fate to have his life end so soon.
What I'm still upset about...
is the fact that the police...
were never able to catch the hit-and-run driver.
Is Ki Young out on a stakeout again?
Why?
Did you make marinated crabs for him again?
Goodness.
You're willing to give your nephew everything, aren't you?
Well,
you should stop devoting yourself to the wrong person,
get married before it's too late,
and have a kid of your own.
Ki Young is all the family I need.
Please give him this when he gets back.
Aunt Soo Mi, you're here.
Hi.
You're practically the same,
so stop calling her like that.
Grandma, please. Ki Young's aunt is my aunt too.
Gosh, it's her magnificent marinated crabs.
Let's get rid of the bean sprouts...
and mix rice with the sauce...
Don't touch it. It's for Ki Young.
Grandma, but I love marinated crabs!
Stop it, that's making me sick.
I need to buy eyes that don't see him whine.
Gosh, what a baby.
Hello?
What?
Okay, I'll be right there.
I hear that's how life is
Although there are many painful days
I hear that life is a beautiful thing
Good job today like always
Mi Joo.
Mi Joo!
Wait, I'm on a roll.
I hear that's how life is
Just stop it already!
Hong Jin Young already sang that song.
Hong Jin Young?
- Really? - Yes!
Darn it.
This is why I consider her my rival.
Whatever I'm planning to do, she does it first.
There's only one thing to beat her at.
I have to get married first.
What if you meet the wrong guy and ruin your life completely?
What's there to worry...
when we'll live until 100.
I'll just divorce and remarry.
Remarry?
That's right!
- He remarried! - What?
- What do you mean? - Lee Sung Wook remarried.
The kids were gone when I woke up.
This is unbelievable.
Where are we supposed to find them?
Did you contact their schools?
Neither of them went to school today.
Unbelievable.
This is why I hate kids. You never know how they'll act.
This was in the box though.
Seo Hye Young.
This one says Seo Hye Young too.
These are all from the same person,
but she never came up during the background check.
You're right.
The name suggests that she's female.
I wonder who it is.
Mid Eum!
You're here...
out of all places.
Leave. Get out.
- Well, I... - Leave!
I have information to share.
The kids won't have to be taken to an orphanage.
We just have to find Sa Rang's mom.
Sa Rang's mom?
And who may that be?
Just think about it.
Mid Eum's mom took off 12 years ago,
but Sa Rang's only 5.
That means...
Sa Rang has a different mom.
If we locate her,
the kids won't have to stay at an orphanage.
Then Seo Hye Young...
I think it is.
Sa Rang's photo is in here.
Then did the kids go off to find her then?
We should go after them right now!
Sister!
Hurry!
Unbelievable.
Mid Eum.
Mid Eum?
What is it?
Where are we going?
Like I said, we're off to see your mom.
Really?
Are we really going to see my mom?
My goodness.
Did Dad call and tell us to stay with her?
Yes, he called.
Are you happy that you get to see your mom?
Yes, of course.
If we stay there with my mom,
will Dad come for us?
- Yes. - Then...
we are rich for sure now.
We will be when Dad, me, you,
and my mom all live happily ever after.
Right?
That's right.
Nice!
[VIU Ver] MBC E10 'Golden Garden' "Mid Eum & Sa Rang Disappear" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥->
A conservative dress would be more appropriate.
I've been bracing myself,
but I'm nervous to finally go through with it.
There's no need to be.
Just think of it as a performance,
just on a very different stage.
Sabina, you did a great job coming this far.
People will point fingers at us if they knew how we got here,
but the most beautiful flowers...
are supposed to have the blackest roots.
The preparations regarding the event booths...
have all been finalized.
We'll contact I and K and confirm the VIP guest list...
for the last time.
What events will be taking place at the booths?
Actually...
(Sabina's Mother)
Please excuse me.
Yes, Ms. Shin.
I called because I was worried.
Is my daughter with you right now?
I'm afraid not.
Is there something wrong?
I don't know if I should say this,
but she received a call from your company.
Your mother wanted to talk to her.
My mother?
All right, I'll look into it.
Please have some tea,
although I'm not sure if you'll enjoy it.
Thank you.
I bought these for you, ma'am.
Joon Ki must've told you...
that I like hydrangeas.
I hope you'll think fondly of me.
That must mean...
you know why I asked you here.
There's only one reason...
for you to want to see me.
You're a smart one, just as I predicted.
Since you're being honest,
it'll be easier for me to tell you this too.
What is your view on marriage?
- Sorry? - Don't give me the obvious,
and be honest with me.
What does your marriage to my son...
mean to you?
I know very well what you're worried about.
You must think that having privilege means you have a lot to protect.
No one wants flies to sit on expensive fruit.
Are you saying you're not a fly?
My mom emphasized this as she was raising me.
Instead of doing your best, be the best.
I've been trying all my life to be the best in every aspect.
- So? - I know the position and status...
that Joon Ki must fulfill.
Instead of being a normal husband and father,
he is on the course of becoming...
the man who will lead the entire company.
I truly believe...
that someone like him needs a wife who is prepared like I am.
I admire that confidence of yours.
However,
I'm sure you said this yourself.
The buyer is the one who assesses products, not the seller.
Then,
to marry Joon Ki...
I'm not saying that.
I can now see that you have some decent qualities.
Ms. Jin.
Someone who is prepared...
is the kind of daughter-in-law I'm looking for.
However, there's something I must know first.
Please ask me anything.
I did my research on you.
There's no record of you before you emigrated.
Why is that?
Do you have a past that should stay hidden?
Why aren't you answering me?
Is there really a past that no one should know about?
You're cruel, Ms. Jin.
Actually,
my life in Korea as a child was miserable.
I want to forget about it so much...
that I never talk about it.
So you're telling me to stop digging into your past.
Yes.
Then it's my turn to give you an answer.
(Cashier's check)
What's this?
I'm sure it's self-explanatory.
You'll just hand over...
whatever amount I write down?
Of course.
In return, you'll stay away from my son forever.
All right.
I appreciate your offer.
Just so you know, I only accepted this...
because of Joon Ki.
He...
treasures you more than anyone in this world.
I don't want to be why he ends up hating you.
Then...
Director Choi!
No, don't. Joon Ki, please.
Mom...
I tried.
You said you love her, so I tried to see the good in her.
However,
I can accept a daughter-in-law without even knowing...
her real name.
I like her. She's the woman I love.
Who she is now is enough for me!
Get a grip on yourself!
Who knows what mess you'll be in...
if you marry a woman of unknown origins?
She's hiding something because she's not proud of her past.
How can you know what kind of skeletons she has in her closet?
I don't trust your perspective, Mother.
Just look at your marriage to the man you chose?
You're worse than strangers and all you do is doubt each other.
You loathe each other more and more...
and now you're trying to ruin my life too...
Get out.
My gosh, Ms. Jin.
Go back in and apologize.
Apologize!
Joon Ki, this won't help at all.
This isn't what we want.
Sabina,
would you still be with me if I had nothing?
What if I was a normal guy...
and not the director at I and K?
Would you still want me?
Are you saying that you'll go against your mom?
Can you do that?
I have never wanted anything more.
All I want is you.
Is it good, Sa Rang?
Here you go.
You have it all. I'm full.
I'm having the time of my life today.
You bought me these new shoes,
this new hairpin, a bun,
and even a sausage.
It's my lucky day today.
Tell me whatever you want, and I'll buy them all for you.
It's all right. My stomach is...
about to pop like a balloon anyway.
Let's finish this and look for my mom.
What else can be done?
They'll go to an orphanage.
Sa Rang,
don't you ever forget about me.
What?
What did you just say?
Even after you grow up,
don't you forget about me.
Mid Eum, are you leaving me?
Of course not. Go ahead and eat.
There comes our bus!
Is this the place?
My gosh, it's a mansion.
Sa Rang's mom must work here.
Just stay in the car...
if you don't want to grab a cab again.
You wouldn't have found this place if it weren't for me.
Seriously?
Okay, fine. I'll leave you.
My gosh!
You must work here.
I do. Who's asking?
We're looking for someone.
Is a Ms. Seo Hye Young here?
Seo Hye Young?
I'm Seo Hye Young.
What is this about?
