Once Again (I Have Been There Once / Han Bun Danyeowasseubmida / 한 번 다녀왔습니다)

Gosh, it's hot.

- Grandpa. - Yes.

I need to go to the toilet.

Can you watch Seo Jin?

- Sure. Go ahead. - Thanks.

Shall we see what you drew, Seo Jin?

Oh, what is this?

Oops, I got paint on me.

What should I do about it?

Oh, thank you.

You're wiping Grandpa's arm.

Seo Jin, wait.

Seo Jin.

Where did you get this?

What?

Where did you get this handkerchief?

A friend gave it to me.

A friend?

Which friend?

The friend in fifth grade.

She's funny.

What?

Gosh, I'm hungry.

How far did they go for groceries?

Young Suk,

did you give her this handkerchief?

What is it?

Gosh, it's old. You should probably throw that away.

What?

This is our mom's handkerchief. The one you said you lost.

What?

Is that so?

Let me see.

It sort of does look the same.

But I don't think it's the one though.

Your memory must be tricking you.

No way.

This is our mom's embroidery. She loved this yellow flower.

Embroideries like that are common in old handkerchiefs.

It's similar, but it's not the same.

Your memory is 40 years old.

I'd know better since I had it longer.

We're here!

Father, you're back already.

Gosh, you're here.

I see you bought a lot of groceries.

I'm going to make pollack soup, Father's favorite.

Goodness, I love pollack soup too.

Here. Let me help.

It's all right. I can do it myself.

I'm hungry, that's all. It'll be faster this way.

Gosh, Seo Jin. What were you up to?

Were you drawing?

This is great.

Gosh, that was close.

How on earth did that end up in her hands?

It's too nerve-wracking to stay put.

I need to collect my money fast and get out of here.

Sorry?

Oh, I... What other side dishes are you making?

Thanks, Hyun Gyung.

Hyun Gyung, it's delicious.

Gosh, you didn't have to go through all this trouble.

It only looks like there's a lot.

I made enough of the side dishes, so eat them at meals.

How's the soup, Father?

Isn't it too salty?

Not at all. It's good.

You're not fully recovered yet, so thank you for this.

I'm grateful but also sorry for leaning on you.

Please don't say that.

I was worried about it not suiting your palate,

so I'm glad.

That's ridiculous. You season food better than Ok Boon.

Joon Seon sure got lucky with his wife.

She displayed all her nice qualities in the kitchen today.

Thanks to her, you gained two beautiful daughters.

That is true, Auntie. I got lucky in marriage.

Your youngest daughter can only still eat with a fork though.

Didn't you say she's five?

Yes, she's not good at using chopsticks yet.

How can she get better if she doesn't practice?

I starting eating with chopsticks even when I was younger than that.

Although, we didn't have forks at the time.

Do you remember things when you were five?

I thought you didn't remember anything from when you were young.

Oh, right. Of course, I don't.

I don't, but those aren't memories that the brain remembers.

It's just been with me, I guess.

Hyo Sin, could you pass me the water?

Sure.

Hold on. What happened to your hand? Did you injure yourself?

Yes, while playing soccer with Ji Hun.

It's fine though. It's only a scratch.

You should've been more careful. Our shoot begins next week.

It'll be fine.

Joon Seon, bring your sisters out to meet me.

Don't tell your father.

What do you mean you find our aunt suspicious?

I'm sure you're aware that your father paid off her debt.

- Of course. - Mom told us.

What about that?

I saw your aunt...

meeting with the loan shark who was after her.

Very discreetly might I add.

Really? Why?

Has she more debt to pay off?

I doubt it.

From what I heard, your father handed over...

the money himself and told them firmly to get lost.

Then why?

Why would she be meeting with the loan shark?

How should I know?

Shouldn't she be disgusted by even the sight of him?

What's more suspicious though...

is the call she took in the alley that I overheard.

- She called the caller her mom. - What?

Mom?

She has a mom?

Exactly. She called the other person her mom.

To make sure, I tried to look at her phone...

but got caught.

What did Aunt Young Suk say?

Of course, she denied everything. She denied ever making that call.

She accused me of spreading lies.

But then your father entered,

and she told him about it with tears in her eyes.

I heard an earful from Young Dal.

You have no idea how upsetting that was.

Are you sure you heard it right?

Maybe you heard wrong.

No, I'm right.

It wasn't even once.

She said "mom" twice.

Actually,

I heard it once before as well.

While talking on the phone,

she called the other person "Mom."

- What? - Really?

Yes.

I thought that I had heard it wrong at the time,

but I guess I didn't.

Don't you think that this is weird?

They're supposed to have the same mother,

so how is this possible?

That's not all that's suspicious though.

I have a bad feeling about this.

There are a few things I'm not sold on either.

Her stories don't add up...

and she's nothing like our dad.

They don't seem at all like siblings.

But they already had their DNAs tested.

Wasn't it a 99 percent match?

Auntie,

how was the DNA test done back then?

That? Your aunt asked for the DNA test first.

Your father was thrilled to have found his sister,

but she suggested that they do a DNA test first.

She pulled out her toothbrush...

Her toothbrush?

That's not a good source for a DNA test.

It could belong to anyone...

and there's a high risk of contamination.

What do we do then?

If we ask for another DNA test,

she'll claim that we're accusing her.

We need to do it without her knowing.

This time, we'll make sure of it.

- Without her knowing? - Without her knowing?

What are you doing in here?

I came in to ask if you had anything to wash.

Do you have anything you need to wash?

I gave you mine yesterday. You took it, remember?

Yes, of course. I guess I forgot.

Sorry about this.

What on earth? She can be the weirdest at times.

Come in.

- Grandpa. - Yes?

It's apple and carrot juice. Mom asked me to deliver it.

Oh, I see. Tell her I'm grateful.

- Sure. - Good.

Grandpa, do you want me to pluck out some of your gray hairs?

But most of my hair is gray anyway. What's there to pluck out?

There's one that's sticking out.

It really shows, you know.

Anyway, it won't take long.

Is one sticking out?

Sure, go ahead.

Good job, Ji Hun. Thanks for this.

Sure. Why do you need Grandpa's hair though?

We have our reasons. Anyway, get ready for school.

Thanks again.

I have a friend at the DNA test lab.

I'll ask for a favor and put a rush on it.

Gosh, my heart's pounding.

Am I supposed to hope for a match or not?

I don't know. If it's not a match, Dad will be devastated.

But if it is a match,

we'll have to live with her as our aunt for the rest of our lives.

We'll think about it once we get the test result.
