Unpredictable Family (Udangtangtang Paemilri / 우당탕탕 패밀리)

Well...

The person who can become a donor for Ms. Ko Chun Young is...

none of you.

What?

What do you mean, none of us?

All four of you are not a match.

All four of us are not a match?

Do you mean none of us can become Mom's donor?

That's right.

Gosh, but how could that be?

Why am I not a match?

Your age is one thing,

but you also have high blood pressure and diabetes.

Well, my blood pressure is a bit high,

but can't I take medication to treat it?

It takes time to control your blood pressure,

and your blood vessels aren't in the greatest condition.

Then, what about us?

Mr. Yoo Eun Hyuk, you can't become a donor...

as you have alcoholic fatty liver disease.

Ms. Yoo Eun A and Yoo Eun Sung,

your livers are smaller than average in size.

It would be hard for you to donate.

If we try to push ahead and excise your livers,

both the donor and recipient could be in danger.

Then what must we do?

We have to save our mom!

Is there anyone among your family or friends...

who could become a donor?

It's okay.

I was going to go on the transplant waiting list...

and wait anyway.

I wasn't going to let you guys be my donor.

Sorry, Mom.

My body wasn't enough.

Me too.

I wanted to donate my liver to you, no matter what.

Sorry, Mom.

I couldn't do my duty as your son.

Honey.

Why are you all acting like this?

You guys are acting like you've committed a sin.

If anyone should feel sorry, it should be me.

And if anyone should beg for forgiveness, it should be me.

It's not like anything will happen to me right away tomorrow.

As I wait for a donor,

I can take care of my condition.

That way I can undergo surgery when I get the chance.

It's okay.

All right?

Father, Mother.

Hey.

Let's sit down and talk.

I heard...

that you were tested to see if you could donate your liver.

And about your mom too.

Oh, right.

All right. Let's sit down first.

So, what were the results?

None of us can become a donor.

What?

None of you can become a donor?

The whole family?

No.

Gosh, is that what they said?

Your whole family must've been devastated by the news.

Yes, we were.

So? What did you decide to do?

Since none of us can donate our livers,

we can only wait for a donor who is brain dead.

Then,

I'll get tested too.

What?

Sun Woo.

Sun Woo.

If the whole family is unable to donate their livers,

it's only right for me as the son-in-law to get tested.

Sun Woo.

This isn't such a simple matter.

A transplant surgery is a big deal.

You must think things through more seriously...

That's right.

You can't base your decision on affection...

or think of this as a way to save face as her son-in-law.

Mom, my mother-in-law is sick.

How can you say that I'm only trying to save face?

I'm not doing this just to save face.

I was going to get tested with everyone else,

but the family said I didn't have to step up as well.

That was why I had backed out for now.

- Sun Woo. - The family said...

they'd donate their livers,

so I only followed their decision.

But if none of them can become donors,

it's only right for me to step up.

A son-in-law is a son too.

I'm Eun Sung's family too.

Even if a son-in-law counts as a son,

you don't have to step up for every single problem.

I'm sure that saying does not exist...

to force sons-in-law to make such sacrifices.

Mom.

Honey. How can you say such a thing in front of Eun Sung?

I can never allow you to get such a dangerous surgery.

Then, should I just turn a blind eye...

when no one can become the donor?

Mother's life depends on this.

And what about your safety?

What if something goes wrong during surgery?

What will you do then?

Mom, why do you speak with the worst-case scenario in mind?

How can I not consider the worst-case scenario?

My son is about to go under the knife.

Mom!

Honey, that's enough. Let's go inside for now.

Sun Woo, you too. Think this over once more, okay?

Think about why we're reacting like this.

Dad.

Yes, I understand.

I'll tell Sun Woo to think about it more seriously.

Mother, I'm very sorry...

for upsetting you.

My gosh.

Sun Woo.

Why did you talk like that to Mother?

She only said things that she had a right to say.

How worried would she be from her perspective?

Sure, it's not that I don't understand.

But we can't waste any time.

And I shouldn't have to tiptoe around anyone either.

I don't mean that we have to tiptoe around anyone.

I just mean that we should be more cautious about this.

I also think it's not right for you to do this so blindly.

What do you mean, blindly?

I'm family too.

Just like how you, Eun A, and Eun Hyuk got tested,

I'm just trying to get tested too.

Sun Woo.

I'm very grateful for the thought.

But Mom won't allow this easily.

I'm sure Dad will think similarly too.

Mom was so heartbroken...

over the fact that we had to get tested.

How would she feel if you stepped up too?

It's one thing for her to feel heartbroken.

But she has to get surgery and regain her health first.

Once damaged,

the liver will only get gradually worse.

Still. You're making a decision too hastily.

Eun Sung.

In order to save Mother,

there is no other way than to find a donor.

I know that's true, but...

How does this make any sense?

Why should Sun Woo make a sacrifice for Ko Chun Young?

Why should he have to have his perfectly fine liver cut out?

I feel the same way as you.

Sun Woo got married after so much turmoil,

so I tried to understand and let most things slide.

But undergoing surgery is on a whole other level.

Right. We have to stop him, no matter what.

I can't watch my son bleed for Ko Chun Young's sake!

Right, I'll try to persuade Sun Woo.

Sun Woo is getting riled up right now...

because he heard that no one was a match.

But once he thinks things through calmly,

he might change his mind.

Even if he likes his wife so much,

how could he think to give his liver to his mother-in-law?

He's crazy.

Honey. Where are you?

The store?

I may be sick, but I have things to organize,

so I will go to the store too...

Honey.

Yes, I was going to go out right now,

but I feel so drowsy.

I'll go to the store later.

Okay.

Oh, my stomach...

What? Ms. Ko has liver cancer?

They all got tested...

to see if they could donate their livers for her transplant,

but Mr. Yoo and all the kids...

were not a match?

That's right.

So, everyone is so worried right now.

So, what will they do?

She will only be able to get a transplant if there is a donor.

Mother is an only child...

and doesn't have any relatives she is in touch with.

So it is a rather frustrating situation.

She went on the waiting list for a donor who is brain dead,

but she might have to wait indefinitely for that.

How unfortunate.

How is it that she has three kids...

and not one of them is a match?

I'm sure Mr. Yoo isn't a match because of his age.

My dear Eun A must be so worried.

Why did this have to happen?
