I've decided. I'll follow your plan.
Let's run the story that we're dating.
Good call. It's the better option.
You're probably shaken by all that has happened. So I'll head home.
Sleep tight.
See you later, Mr. Han.
Bye.
Are you
-really going to date him? -We're not dating.
We're just pretending.
It's the same thing.
What if you start liking him?
That would never happen.
I've known Yu-jin for 14 years.
Don't be so sure.
Your feelings could change anytime
depending on how he treats you.
But...
That's... What?
Did I do something wrong?
[Oh! Master]
[Episode 6]
[83 missed calls, 102 unread messages]
[Is it true that you're dating?]
The media is going insane over the dating rumors.
What's there to be concerned about?
Yu-jin isn't really your boyfriend anyway.
Yesterday, you were telling me
that things could get serious between him and me.
But you said that would never happen.
After thinking about what you said yesterday,
I've decided to date whoever I have feelings for.
I don't see Yu-jin in a romantic way,
but you never know.
Going somewhere?
I have research to do.
["Oh Joo-in Is Dating KT Cosmetics' Top Executive"]
I thought you were in need of some dating advice from me.
Since when did you start dating her?
I'll tell you how we started dating some other time.
So when can I meet Ms. Oh?
I'll ask Joo-in when she's free.
And then we can get together or something.
I'm the company's CEO, so shouldn't you ask me when I'm free?
You care more about her than me. That hurts.
It's all good, isn't it?
What should I tell the boss?
That I had to make a choice between letting a scandalous story
about me and Writer Han get leaked or tell everyone that I'm dating Yu-jin?
-I can't tell her that. -Of course, not!
Just tell the boss that you're dating Yu-jin for real.
But what did Han Bi-soo say?
Didn't he react to this news?
Actually, he confessed his feelings to me.
-He said he likes me. -Oh, my gosh!
You won Han Bi-soo's heart?
He's one cold-hearted guy though.
So in public, you date Yu-jin.
But in private, you live with Han Bi-soo.
You're amazing, Joo-in.
You live in your own real-life romantic comedy!
This isn't funny.
Thanks.
You have nothing to gain from these tabloid articles about who you're dating.
It'll limit the TV roles you get.
You'll lose a few sponsors.
Viewers will be more interested in your dating life
than the roles you play on TV.
Are you sure you want this?
Yes. Everything happened so quickly.
So I didn't have time to tell you. I'm sorry.
I had no idea you would date Director Jeong.
It's not what I expected.
You don't need to be concerned.
We'll be discreet.
Now that the cat's out of the bag,
commit yourself to the relationship.
-What? -As the head of a talent agency,
tabloid stories about my clients aren't good news.
But I want what's best for you, Joo-in.
I sincerely congratulate you.
Director Jeong is your longtime friend,
and he knows your mother well.
You could say he's the perfect boyfriend.
Try to become a great couple.
Okay, I will.
I shouldn't have said that to her.
What are you talking about?
She's just pretending to be dating him.
It won't turn into anything serious or will it?
Could you make some sense?
Did you get delirious
after reading tabloid articles about Joo-in?
What on earth? Why are you reading the tabloids?
We set you up on a blind date with Joo-in,
but some guy stole her away.
No, he didn't steal her away from me.
What did your mom say? Didn't she say something?
My mom is a busy person who doesn't have the time
to check celebrity news like someone I know.
I know your mom. She won't take this well.
Darn it.
Come on.
Bi-soo,
do you have time to meet me today?
Hi, Joo-in!
You came.
Let's go in.
I only found out recently that you knew each other
since high school.
My brother doesn't tell me
what goes on in his life. He keeps things to himself.
You two make a cute couple.
So when did you start dating for real?
Very recently.
Did Yu-jin ask you out first?
-He made the first move. -I knew it.
Actually, Yu-jin moved back here from Paris
because of you.
You didn't tell her that?
Let's not go into the specifics of my personal life.
I can tell you this.
Yu-jin will treat you really well.
I can guarantee he will.
Oh, I know that too.
Do you see your mom often?
From time to time.
Is there something going on with my mom?
She's been acting strange lately.
-Like how? -You know what she did, Doctor.
She sold the house I was living in without telling me.
And she set me up on a blind date
without letting me know until the last minute.
-Try to be a dutiful son. -Sure.
I don't think you came here to talk about that.
I don't care if your mom gets mad at me later.
I must tell you this.
Tell me what?
You can't tell her that you know the truth.
If she finds out that you know--
Just tell me what it is.
Your mom
has late-stage pancreatic cancer.
She was diagnosed with it six months ago.
Your mom doesn't want you to know about it.
But I'm telling you this because
I don't want you to say or do anything that you'll sorely regret later.
Where...
Where is she right now?
[Sein Hospital]
[Chairwoman Kang Hae-jin]
[Thank you]
[for being my mom. I'm sorry that I'm always busy.]
[Let's go on a trip on your next birthday.]
Oh, you came to my office.
I was in a meeting, so I couldn't take any calls.
You hardly ever come here. What's the occasion?
I just missed you.
You missed me? Is today a special day?
What are you doing later?
I'm having dinner with the board members.
Why are you meeting them?
I submitted my resignation.
So I'm having a farewell dinner with them before I quit.
I want to retire and relax.
I've been managing the hospital for many years.
I should go.
Where to? I have some time before I leave for dinner.
Oh, I forgot I had an appointment.
I'll call you.
But why would you ask me to move in now?
It's hard to understand.
[If you've got money and a lot of time on your hands,]
then pick up a hobby.
And don't obsess over your grown-up son.
Why are you only eating vegetables?
You don't crave any foods
[because you've tasted almost all fine cuisines?]
-What was that? -Gosh.
Hey!
You should say sorry after bumping into someone.
I'm sorry!
-I'm sorry! I'm sorry! -He's crazy.
I said I'm sorry.
Writer Han!
Did something happen?
[Writer Han?]
[Writer Han.]
Is he still asleep? He hasn't left his room all night.
After he confessed his feelings to you,
the tabloids broke news about you and Yu-jin. It must have cut him deeply.
He knows that Yu-jin and I are pretending.
Then why is he acting like that?
Let's go.
[Sein Hospital]
I'm not going to sign the divorce papers.
If I have done something reprehensible as a husband
or if you no longer love me,
then I'll agree to a divorce. But if that's not the case,
-I want to stay married to you. -Honey,
how was our marriage after 40 years?
We didn't have any problems in our marriage, did we?
I agree. We didn't have any problems, but we didn't have any love either.
When we got married, it wasn't for love.
But I did my best.
Did I act in any way that dismayed you?
Did I do anything wrong?
No.
I wished you could have doted on Bi-soo a bit more.
A more gentle dad.
But you don't show your affections, and I accept that.
Then why are you demanding a divorce?
Before I die
and be laid to rest,
I don't want to be a wife
or a hospital director.
I want to break free.
I merely want to
live my life as an independent woman.
It's my last wish before I die.
Honey.
Please sign the divorce papers.
Signing them won't affect your reputation or career.
It'll stay intact.
Nice pose. Great.
You're so radiant.
Nailed it.
Nice.
Great.
Hold it right below your eye. Okay.
Let's hold that pose.
Toward your lips.
You're shining so brightly.
Nice neckline.
Good.
[Mom, 5 missed calls]
You're really good.
Oh, Mr. Jeong. Joo-in, he brought you flowers.
What are the flowers for?
It's to celebrate my girlfriend's first ad shoot
after signing the contract renewal as our spokesmodel.
Congratulations.
-They're pretty. -You're prettier than the flowers.
Are you waiting for me to ask you all
-to give us a little bit of privacy? -Oh, my.
We should've gotten up sooner.
-Let's go. -Oh, okay.
-I'm sorry. -That's okay.
-You look stunning. -You don't need to overdo it
by giving me flowers in front of everyone.
I'm not overdoing it.
I wanted to give you a bigger present but settled on flowers.
Anyway, you always try your best.
-Joo-in. -Yes?
Since we're in this together, could you give me a chance?
Don't push me away or draw a line between us.
Just give it some serious thought at least once
while we go through this charade of
smiling in front of people as a couple.
I no longer want to be in the friend zone. Consider me as a potential boyfriend.
Enough talking about that.
Let's go have dinner.
Okay.
I can't believe you called me first to have lunch.
Life is full of surprises even at my age.
You're still in your prime, Mom.
Well, I do take care of myself.
Mom, why don't you wear clothes that aren't black?
This color looks nice.
I've always worn black.
I'm not changing my style overnight.
Let me buy this for you.
No, thanks. It's too late to change.
It's never too late.
You can just start now.
You don't need to raise your voice.
Let me buy this for you.
I came here to shop to get you a gift.
But you won't let me.
The best gift is just spending time with you.
I cherish these moments.
Let's go.
All right. Come this way.
Bi-soo!
It looks so nice. Try it on.
-No, thanks. -It's a beautiful outfit.
Come here for a second.
It's so bright. It'll fit you perfectly. What?
Oh, that's pretty.
Doesn't that one look pretty?
Yes.
How much is it?
Don't worry about the price.
I really didn't need a gift. You're so persistent.
Sure. You ended up getting something extravagant.
A shiny ring.
It's beautiful.
I'll hand this down to your future girlfriend one day.
You just got it, so banish any thoughts about handing it down.
And I'm not going to date anybody.
How did your date go with Joo-in?
I thought you were going to get mad at me for setting you two up.
Why would I get mad over that?
We merely spent time somewhere outside of the home.
Did she look prettier on the date?
-Oh, come on. -I know you, Bi-soo.
What do you think about her? You can be honest with me.
It wasn't special.
I see her around the house and get worried
when she's not around.
Sometimes she gets in the way, which bothers me.
What else?
When I get home
and see her room light on, it gives me a sense of reassurance.
See? It's nothing special.
-You're clicking. -What?
The things you just mentioned...
That's how you become attracted to someone.
They're nothing.
Bi-soo.
What's wrong?
This house is really cozy.
That's right.
And do you watch TV together?
With Writer Han? No way.
I hardly watch any TV because it could distract him while he works.
Maybe I should move in here too.
What?
I noticed you had an empty room.
I get lonely living by myself.
You're not being serious, are you?
Why? Did I make you nervous by asking that?
How about some coffee?
-Yes, please. -Okay.
Hi, Writer Han.
Did you have dinner?
I hope you didn't eat another ready-made meal.
You're here, Mr. Han.
What is he doing here?
That makes me feel like I'm entering a stranger's house.
Mr. Han, I'm not mistaken, am I?
Seemed like you were dropping the honorifics.
I always speak in a polite form.
Oh, did I, bud?
I'm an impatient person, you see.
So I have a habit of dropping honorifics.
But I'll try to fix that, pal.
Thanks.
Would you like some coffee too?
I'll pass on the coffee.
-Do you also cook? -What?
Well, I saw you working in the kitchen so naturally
like it was your space.
So I thought you were going to cook something up.
I didn't know you had such a sense of humor.
I should come and hang out here more. It's fun.
Let's all sit down instead of standing.
Master.
How was your day, Master?
Master?
-Yes, Master. -Why are you suddenly calling me that?
What do you mean?
You put it in the contract
on how to specifically call you.
Those were the terms you wanted.
I call you Master. I'm Writer Han.
Before, you told me you needed time
to adjust to those terms.
I'd like to make up for the lengthy time
it took to get used to it.
So I'll call you Master from now on.
That's an awkward way to address someone.
It's what she wanted. Don't ask me.
Should I ask her to change it? Would you like to?
Oh, no. I'll try to get used to it.
Sure, Master.
Okay.
I'll retire to my room then, Master.
Sure.
And enjoy your coffee as a pretend couple.
What is it?
What are you doing, Writer Han?
Can't you tell, Master?
I've never seen you play with that before.
I've never seen a pretend couple before either.
Yu-jin left.
Then come in.
Why did you send him home so early?
I didn't ask him to go.
He just wanted to brew a cup of coffee before leaving.
I see.
So you came to tell me he left?
I had a commercial shoot today.
After the shoot, Yu-jin came, and we had dinner.
Then he gave me a ride home.
Why are you telling me this?
Nothing much happened. It was just a regular day.
How is that nothing?
That's how people start dating.
What? You're also good at shooting baskets?
You can shoot well too. You just need to learn the right posture.
You're confident with your skills, aren't you? You want to play?
-I'm ready. -So am I.
Here I come.
I'll go back to my room.
All right.
Doors are
meant to be open.
Tell me what you think about it.
["Guitarist, Female Killer", Episode 1, Episode 2 Final draft]
Could you send a copy to my boss and yours?
That way, we can do things quicker.
-No problem. -Are you going out?
-I'm meeting my mom. -I see.
You're going to do the charade with Yu-jin again?
No, I'm going to stay in and read your script.
That will be a very productive day.
See you later.
[Chairwoman Kang Hae-jin]
Mom.
Hold on.
Since when did you become such a warm person?
I'm only like this around you, Mom.
So just enjoy it.
I'm so touched, Bi-soo.
It's fun hanging out with you, Mom.
So make more time in your schedule.
Well, tomorrow is my last day as the hospital chairwoman.
I'll have a lot of free time soon.
Why are you staring like that?
Because you're beautiful.
Oh, please.
Let's go.
["Guitarist, Female Killer"]
You could have ordered a steak.
Why did you order the same dish?
I noticed you were eating a lot of salads.
I wanted to check it out.
-How is it? -It's not bad.
Tell me if there's any food you'd like to have.
You can tell me anytime.
You know,
I filed for divorce.
All of a sudden?
Did Dad do something wrong?
No, it's not like that.
Lots of people get divorced after 50.
I'd like to live my own life.
Now that I quit my hospital job,
I have so many things I want to do.
And you'll do it alone?
Include me too.
Of course, I'll do a lot of things with you too.
I saw that you took a photo with Joo-in's mom.
It looked like you were her son-in-law.
Don't be jealous.
Ask me to take a photo with you, and I'll do it.
Okay.
Smile.
1, 2, 3.
I finished reading your scripts.
-I read them three times. -How was it?
How are you going to write these scripts without me?
-What do you mean? -The lead character is
a role made for me.
She lets out steam by boxing.
She agrees to not say "thanks" after being forbidden to say it.
She drinks warm milk to sleep after having a traumatic experience.
And she even lives with the male lead.
You wrote the exact things that happened to me.
So what's your verdict? Was it good or not?
It was very fun.
I knew you'd bang out a good script.
I need you to keep hanging out here. It helps.
[We look great together, don't we?]
[Mom]
[Obviously.]
Who are you texting?
My mom.
Do we look nice together?
Yes, totally.
It'll be her last day at the hospital tomorrow.
I don't know what to get her.
How about throwing a party?
-Throw a party? -Yes, a farewell party here.
Here? Will that be okay?
I'll help out.
You were nice to my mom when she came over last time.
I'll also bring my mom.
It will be nice if we invite everyone.
As long as you agree.
My mom would love it.
What kind of script is this?
I didn't get a heads-up on this.
Now you're calling the shots?
Well, Chief--
I'm wondering why
the show is going in a totally different direction.
After reading it, you'll see that it's much better and improved.
I'm not having it.
The show title is now, "Guitarist, Female Killer".
The doctor suddenly became a female killer.
There're a murder plot and romance altogether.
I apologize for these changes without telling you.
You're sorry?
I accept your apology. Let's get this going.
So in six months, we'll have
a hit show on our hands, right?
The network is picking up the show?
Thank you!
I asked Bi-soo to come out and celebrate together,
but he hates parties.
Well, that can't be helped. Let's celebrate ourselves.
I'm surprised that you chose this place.
I thought you were more of a wine-drinking person.
On a day like this, soju is the perfect drink.
My goodness.
I was so worried that the network wouldn't pick up our show.
But the chief gave us a big break. I'm so relieved.
During my 15 years in the business,
I've gone through so many ups and downs.
And the job never gets easier.
For 15 years? I've also been an agent for 15 years.
-Really? -I started out as a road manager at 25.
But I quit to start my own agency with just hopes and dreams.
I also started out as a TV producer at age 25.
We have a lot in common.
Here.
-I'll pour you one. -Oh, sure.
Joo-in!
Congratulations on having your show picked up.
What? You asked me to come to congratulate me?
How did you find out so fast?
I keep a close tab on what goes on in your career.
I even made mojito, your favorite.
Yu-jin, you know me too well.
I'm going to have my mojito drink right now.
Just a minute.
Let's open this bottle of champagne first.
Are you okay?
This brings back memories.
The day we celebrated together when you got your first lead role.
And you spilled all of the champagne.
It was on purpose. I got so emotional.
Did it mean a lot to you too?
Well, that was two days before I was leaving for Paris.
I was happy that you won that role,
and at the same time, I was sad that I was leaving you.
You probably didn't know that I had such mixed emotions.
Why wouldn't I know?
I acted like I didn't notice because I didn't want to kill the mood.
Really?
At the airport, you were smiling as you waved goodbye.
I was crying inside.
I didn't want to dampen your mood during your Paris flight.
I had no idea. I'm sorry.
Let's eat.
I wish we could spend the whole night together.
Not like that. I just want to be with you.
We used to hang out all night.
When I got my first supporting role, I remember how we stayed up all night.
You helped me read my lines.
It doesn't feel right that you'll be going back home
with Mr. Han there.
Excuse me for a second.
What is it?
Open it.
I didn't get you anything though.
I don't want something back.
Give me your hand.
I knew it would look nice on you.
Thanks.
[I didn't come to your rescue to receive a thank you.]
It makes me feel awkward.
And I don't want you to feel grateful toward me either.
So I forbid you from ever thanking me.
Wear it often, okay?
Of course, you won't need to check the time when you're with me.
And why would I not need to?
Because I won't let you be bored.
It fits perfectly, doesn't it?
It looks great on you.
The Guitarist, Female Killer is here!
What is this? You surprised me.
Did you go somewhere?
I just met Yu-jin.
Were you waiting for me, Writer Han?
No.
I wanted to have some champagne today,
so I had some.
But I see two glasses.
Well, you know I love champagne.
So I pour two drinks for myself
and drink it left and right.
You should've called me that you were waiting.
The champagne was for me.
That's a new watch.
Oh, Yu-jin gave it to me. It's a gift.
He has a knack for picking nice gifts.
When Yu-jin gave me this watch,
I thought about you.
I wondered what you were doing.
-I see. -You worked so hard because of me.
I demanded that you do a rewrite. And you made all the changes I asked for.
I'm glad you know that.
I delivered, and the network picked up the show.
When I agreed to join the show,
the network already committed to picking it up.
So you've got star power, is that it?
I really wanted to drink all of the champagne by myself.
If it weren't for you,
the network wouldn't have picked up the show.
Thank you for turning things around and trusting me.
Thanks.
I forbid you from saying thank you.
I can't be the only one banned from saying it. It's only fair.
I'll have to follow Master's decision.
Cheers.
[Sein Hospital]
[Kang Hae-jin]
[Chairwoman Kang Hae-jin]
It's your last day.
Here.
You did a great job.
You didn't have to bring me flowers.
My wife is retiring as the hospital chairwoman,
so you deserve a flower bouquet at the least.
The board will make their decision soon.
Oh, right.
Now that the network has picked up the show,
won't you be too busy with work to go on dates with me?
I'll always make time to see you.
But Mr. Han is focused on other things than writing.
He's infatuated with Joo-in.
So who are you rooting for?
-Mr. Han or Director Jeong? -I'm rooting for Director Jeong.
At first, I thought they were pretending to be dating,
but Director Jeong seems to have real feelings for her.
He treats her like a goddess.
From simply being friends to becoming her boyfriend...
He knew her for 14 years. How romantic.
I'm rooting for Mr. Han, of course.
He's a cold-hearted guy,
but all of a sudden, he turned into a hopeless romantic.
It doesn't get as romantic as that.
So this is where we disagree.
I'm not changing my position.
How is Han Bi-soo attractive as a guy?
He's always angry. Glaring eyes.
He's all smiles nowadays.
-He always yells at me. -You haven't seen him recently.
-I entrust the hospital with you. -Please come to visit.
Everyone is sad to see you leave.
I'm not going anywhere. You'll always find me here.
So call me if you need anything.
What if I stay up all night drinking like I did in my college days?
Come on.
Go ahead. It won't hurt.
If you hadn't supported me,
I don't think I would be here today.
I love you, Hae-jin.
I'm always on your side.
Me too.
Sang-eun, you made working here a lot more enjoyable.
Thanks, Sang-eun.
What if we let your mom and my mom
stay over in the guest room?
I think it would make them happy
and bring back good memories.
You're coming up with a lot of good suggestions.
Writer Han, seek my advice.
I'm talented in many things.
Have a nice day at the hospital.
You too.
[Chairwoman Kang Hae-jin]
Finally, it's my last day.
Is this all you need to pack?
You don't have any more stuff?
I realize I didn't keep much stuff in my office.
Don't dwell on that kind of stuff.
Just focus on how you'll enjoy
your retirement and do the things you want in life.
Yes, I will.
-Bi-soo. -Yes?
Are things going well?
It seems like everything is going well, but...
Why are you asking me that suddenly?
What are you talking about?
I'm talking about Joo-in.
I read an article that says she's dating someone.
Now you're bringing it up?
It would affect you the most.
I didn't want to make things worse for you.
It's fake.
-It's fake? -It's not true.
A reporter was going to run a story that Master and I
were living together. So they released a fake story to bury that.
Then who is Jeong Yu-jin?
He's an old friend of Master.
They knew each other in high school.
Why did you just call her Master?
What?
Well...
She calls me Writer Han,
so I call her Master.
It's only fair.
I thought you were really something,
but Joo-in is on a different level.
-I mean, Master. -What?
-Your face is beet red.
What? Isn't it right though?
Oh, my.
How pretty.
-A lot of work went into this. -Obviously.
Joo-in spent hours decorating the place.
How could I not love you when you prepare something like this?
Can I just call her Joo-in?
Of course. Don't call her, Ms. Oh. She's my daughter, after all.
I feel more comfortable if you call me that.
Thanks, Joo-in.
Is someone else coming?
What on earth?
You never miss a party.
I would never miss a special day like this.
Come in, Chang-gyu.
Welcome.
-Ta-da. -Thanks so much.
-Isn't it pretty? -I love it.
Hae-jin, you worked so hard in your career.
Even running a record store isn't a piece of cake.
I can't imagine running a hospital.
I grew up in a family of doctors.
Hospital work is all I'm good at.
When people compliment you, just accept it without a word.
- Okay. - Yes, Hae-jin.
Now make a wish.
I made a wish on my birthday though. I'm a lucky woman.
I get to make more wishes.
Making wishes is a good thing.
And the chances of them coming true go up.
-Congratulations on your retirement! -You had a great career!
-Thanks. -What did you wish for?
What?
I wished that each and every one of you would find happiness.
You didn't have to wish for us.
-Just wish for something you wanted. -She did well.
Having the people around her become happy will make her happy.
You should come to my store often now.
-Will you serve tea? -Tea and much more.
I'll play records for you and be your friend.
Ta-da. A present.
You're doing so much for me lately. I'm so touched.
Open it. I want to know what he got for you.
Not now. Open it in the guest room.
-And wear it for us. -Oh, my. I think it's clothes.
-Put it on. Let's go. -Wait for us.
What are you staring at?
My mom was your first love, right? Are you excited?
Don't say such things!
All right.
-Ta-da. -Wow.
You look stunning, Mom.
Hae-jin, you still have it!
That color fits you so well.
-You look wonderful. -I do?
Bi-soo has good tastes.
You're lucky
to have a son who gives you beautiful presents.
Thanks, Bi-soo.
I don't know why you always stuck with wearing black.
I'll buy you a lot of dresses, Mom. In different colors.
I won't
ever forget this day.
Hold still.
Mr. Han, don't you feel like having a drink?
Yes. We didn't drink during the party.
[Thanks to you, this special day was possible.]
[I merely provided the venue.]
[You also provided a priceless memory.]
[You're the best, Master.]
[What kind of snacks do you like?]
[Dried snacks.]
What? Joo-in? You're Joo-in, right?
Yes.
Are you Writer Han Bi-soo?
Are you together?
We met by coincidence. I live in this neighborhood.
We're close.
We're working together on a show.
Oh, right.
I read the news.
Oh, so you're very close.
Yes. Hope you'll watch our show.
Of course, I will.
Cheers.
Why did you tell him that we're close?
-But it's true. -Yes.
It's funny.
I feel better after you said that.
-Quite strange, isn't it? -What is?
That our mothers know each other.
And that we both owned this house at different periods.
It seems like we're on the same timeline.
Yes, you're right.
-Coffee? -I'd like that.
Our moms left early.
Smells good.
What is your mom planning to do now?
When people retire after a long career,
they have a hard time choosing what to do with their lives.
My mom has it all planned out.
On what she'll do.
Sir, what service do you provide to customers?
Oh, it's coming right up.
Thank you for coming to
Just Record Cafe again.
I see I have two customers.
For two close friends,
I prepared this music.
Yes, Sang-eun.
It feels great to not go to work.
It's loud here, isn't it? Hold on.
I am having so much fun. It's great.
DJ Chang-gyu, I'm counting on you to bring the beat.
Okay.
Chang-gyu, where is the restroom?
It's down the hallway.
That was a short call.
My work friend called. She asked me how retirement feels.
-You should've told her it's fun. -I know.
I should've quit my job sooner if I had known how good retirement is.
Where's Jung-hwa?
She went to the restroom.
What? By herself?
Yes.
Jung-hwa...
Jung-hwa. She's not answering her phone. Oh, no.
-Chang-gyu, where is the restroom? -What's the matter?
I can't let her go by herself.
What's going on?
Jung-hwa
has Alzheimer's. She can get lost.
What is she talking about?
Yes, Mom.
How is your first day unemployed?
What?
Joo-in's mom?
Okay. We'll look for her too.
What was that call about?
Your mother disappeared.
What should we do?
-Stay here. -What are you saying? I have to find her.
She might find her way here.
People are looking for her.
So you should stay home.
You need to stay calm in moments like these.
She's probably doing okay.
I can't stay home.
Where are you going?
I want to comb the neighborhood.
Isn't that Oh Joo-in?
-Is it her? -That's Oh Joo-in.
[Oriental medical clinic]
Are you unwell?
-Joo-in! -I'm calling to report
a lady who seems to be lost.
-Mom. -What should we do?
Hold on.
She must be her daughter. She'll be okay.
She'll be all right.
Are you okay, Mom?
Let's go home.
Let's go.
That's Writer Han. You don't remember?
Honey.
Who is this young lady?
Drink this.
You should serve your guest first.
Not me.
She must be your favored student. You even invited her over.
She keeps calling me Mom. How endearing.
I think you're like a mom to her.
Do I resemble her mother?
Did her mom pass?
She looked sad to me.
Honey.
-Yes. -I don't know why,
but I feel exhausted.
Why don't you take a nap?
I think I will.
She must be very exhausted.
She fell asleep.
Joo-in must be shaken.
It must hurt a lot.
She can't recognize her own daughter. It's so cruel.
I know. I feel so bad.
Mom.
Don't forget me.
Okay?
-I need to return to my store. -Sure.
Bi-soo, we need to get going.
-Go ahead. I'll call you later. -Okay.
Thank you all for looking for my mother.
I'm sorry, Joo-in.
I should've stayed by her side at all times.
You should get some rest. It was a long day for you.
Bye.
I knew the day would come
when my mom wouldn't be able to recognize me.
But I thought that day would be far away.
Even if she didn't recognize other people,
I thought she'd
be able to remember me.
I told myself that.
I couldn't handle the day
that would happen to her.
It looks like
you can
handle it without a problem.
Your mother is so thoughtful.
She assigned you a different role to keep things interesting.
Today, she thought you were a student of her husband.
I wonder what role she'll give you next time.
Try to go along with it.
You're an actress. That's what you do.
You can do this.
It's nothing to cry about.
You're right.
I'm relieved that I'm an actress.
I'm confident in playing a daughter role.
And I could play other roles too.
I'll be able to keep her amused.
Thanks to her, you'll improve as an actress.
Even if the day comes
when Mom will completely forget who I am, I'll remember her.
You're her daughter. Nobody can change that.
I'm the witness.
Bi-soo, do you think I can handle it?
You're already doing a fine job.
You're doing a fine job.
[Oh! Master]
That was so dumb.
[We're not officially dating.]
[-So let's take some time.] -I'll enjoy this meal.
[He's always hanging out with her.]
[I'm not going to let you steal her away from me.]
[-Memories lose their power.] -I like you.
[What's important is the present.]
[Bi-soo, memories are more powerful than you think.]
-Joo-in. [-How much longer can she live?]
[I guess I'll cherish this moment tomorrow.]
[I treat you nicely for a reason, Joo-in.]
[You know why I do.]
