Andante (안단테)

Shi Kyung said he's studying with friends for a performance assessment.

Don't you need to?

What do you mean?

Lee Shi Kyung is watching a movie with his girlfriend.

Seriously, that kid.

So, that's Bom.

Mom, you know Bom too?

I've seen her at the hospital before.

What's she like?

I don't know her very well.

From what I can tell, she is smarter than Shi Kyung.

She does better in school than Shi Kyung.

That's a relief, at least.

What does her father do?

- What? - What's with you adults?

You have to even if you don't want to.

It may only be convulsions now, but you could go into a coma.

I really can't do it.

I can do anything else but not that.

Mrs. Shin Kyung Ae.

We understand why you feel this way.

Still, you must get an enema to stop these convulsions.

You think you'll be able to talk to your daughter with that hand?

Why does my hand have to do this?

No one will see.

I will be in here alone, so you will feel at ease.

How can I feel at ease? How?

You must like drip coffee.

No, not me.

The patient Song Kyung Ae requested it.

I don't think she's allowed to have coffee.

What?

When it comes to food and drinks, you need to get the doctor's permission.

Ah, I forgot.

I'm sorry.

What should I do then? Should I put it away?

No, just give it to me.

Oh, what is that smell?

Are you crazy? Why are you in here!

I thought something happened to you, Soo Bin's mom.

What are you looking at? Get out of here.

Oh... yes.

What am I to do?

Soo Bin, what is your mom going to do?

Do you know that painting?

It's "The Scream" by Munch.

After my children's father went missing...

I kept this painting by my side.

Your husband?

It has been over 10 years.

I must have wanted to scream like the person in this painting.

I'm sorry about before.

I was acting so crazy, wasn't I?

I would've done the same.

I'm craving coffee again.

I bought beans. Should I grind them for you?

Could you?

You can only enjoy the smell.

Caffeine is not good for you right now.

That movie was really fun, right?

You were funnier than the movie.

Me?

You have no idea how funny you look when you laugh, do you?

I've been told I look very handsome when I laugh.

Laugh.

You see? It's funny.

- What are you doing? - Just enjoying my own private view.

It's just something.

Who is it that you're not answering?

The president of a modeling agency.

Why is the president of a modeling agency calling you?

I met him years ago on the street.

He's been bothering me about modeling ever since.

Does he, perhaps... have other motives toward you?

Other motives?

There are a lot of dark and strange people out there.

Isn't that why he's calling you?

Give the phone to me if he calls you again.

What will you do if I give it to you?

Once I pick up I will...

Say he calls.

Hello, uh...

I'm from Violent Crimes of the Gaon Police Department.

How can I help you?

The president of a modeling agency?

Oh, really.

- Forget it. Come on. - What?

"Gi Uk."

Grandma, you sure like "Uk."

It isn't "Uk." It's "Yeok."

Like for the word seaweed.

Okay, like for the word seaweed.

Why didn't you say so to begin with?

"Yeok" like the word seaweed.

What is this one?

"Ni..."

"Nyun."

Oh, Grandma!

This is "Nieun."

Oh, it's not "Ni Nyun."

- "Ni Eun." - Why?

"Stupid, dumb idiot."

"Eat crap and take a hike."

You had no problem memorizing those music lyrics.

Why can't you memorize easy Korean?

Because my old brain is full of curse words.

From now on, "Giyeok" and "Nieun."

Read it out loud, and write it 20 times.

20 times!

That's how Dad taught Shi Kyung how to read and write.

If you can't memorize it, read and write it until you can.

I told you to stop calling your older brother Shi Kyung.

If you manage to learn all of this, I'll call him "older brother."

You promise?

Yes.

"Ni...nyun."

You are doing this out of spite.

Stop picking on Grandma.

Take care of your own problems.

You told Mom you were studying for our performance assessment.

How did you know that?

Mom came to town and saw you two in the store.

Really? You should have told me!

She caught me while I was taking out the trash.

Was Mom mad? She didn't say anything?

She said something I can't repeat.

What am I supposed to tell Mom?

Just tell her the truth.

"I like my girlfriend more than you."

Hey, Mom would feel bad if she heard me say that.

Have you ever cared about Mom when you have lied in the past?

You only do it for your own comfort.

That's not true! I care about Mom, too.

Sure, I'm sure you feel guilty, too.

You wouldn't be human if you didn't.

Lee Shi Kyung.

There you are.

Eom Yong Gi.

The music teacher wants to see you.

I wonder if you and Shi Kyung should just live in the consulting office.

What?

It's nothing.

Get going. She's waiting.

What nonsense...

Stop right there.

What is it you want to say that's making you take so long?

I said some really nonsensical things last time.

So, you know.

I wanted to talk to you about that. Can I take it back?

You're not even friends with Shi Kyung.

I invited you to his birthday party all on my own.

I think I was really crazy at that moment.

Could you just take it as nonsense and forget about it?

I don't want to. I'm going to go.

You're going to go?

Yes. I was invited, so I'm going.

That's my answer.

You wouldn't have to worry about getting caught if it was a normal call.

Soo Bin says she has to see my face once a day.

Otherwise, she can't study. What else can I do?

I miss my Soo Bin, too.

She shouldn't be able to see the hospital building from here.

It should be okay.

I think so too.

How do I look? I don't look sick, do I?

You still look very healthy.

How long are you going to hide it from Soo Bin?

Until my daughter is accepted into college...

Soo Bin would stop studying if she knew I was terminally ill.

She would come running to act as my nurse.

Yes, but what if...

What if I die before then?

Even still...

I still need to hide it.

I will be gone someday.

I don't want Soo Bin to destroy her life because of me.

That's the way all mothers feel.

- It's time to talk to Soo Bin. - Okay.

I'll be over here.

- Daughter. - Mom!

How are you feeling today?

Very good.

Did you do well on your social studies presentation?

I did just as you coached me.

I discussed the issue of comfort women using law and politics.

The reaction was totally great.

That's great!

What about the book? Did you read it and write a report?

I wrote it and mailed it to you.

You haven't read it yet?

You did?

I'm out at a college entrance exam information session, so I haven't yet.

I'll read it later and review it.

Are you looking for someone?

Yes. My mom.

I wronged my mom yesterday, so I wanted to cheer her up.

I saw your mom out in the yard with the patient Song Kyung Ae.

Really? I better go see my mom.

Oh, Bom. Do you want come too?

You know you have the TEPS exam this weekend, right?
