The first 200 lines.
I...
I'm back.
You'll know once you get your memory back...
just how flustering it is...
having you do this to me.
She must have wanted...
to punch my shameless face.
I'm amazed she put up with me...
and stayed with me.
When I was 22,
I felt like my life was over.
I prayed...
for just one reason to live.
That day, she appeared in my life like destiny.
I'll work hard...
so that we can move to a nicer, more comfortable place.
Daddy's home.
Daddy. Did you drive safely today too?
I did.
Welcome home. - Thanks. Where's Mommy?
In your room. - In your room.
In our room?
Welcome home.
Ta-da.
Were you crying?
No.
Is something wrong? Did the kids bother you?
I got sad while reading a book.
You cried while reading a book? Like a child?
You teased me when I cried while watching a movie.
The kids are right there.
I wanted her to be as happy as I was,
and to love me as much as I loved her.
Eun Hee.
What did I do...
to make her leave?
I made a promise...
that if she'd come back, I'll live only as the kids' dad.
I heard Dad proposed to you on this day...
and it was the first day he held your hand.
He said he took this picture to remember this day forever.
Mom.
Dad's mistaken, right?
You said you were already pregnant with Eun Joo here.
She couldn't have been born prematurely then.
You said Eun Joo was born later than the due date.
Were you the one...
who was mistaken?
I don't...
understand anything you're saying.
Your father's memory...
is patchy, that's all.
Do you want some braised beef?
You like having my braised beef and stir-fried anchovies...
with your beer.
Mom.
I always wondered...
Why did you...
only take Eun Joo when you left home?
Why didn't you take me?
Back then,
I was younger than you are now.
I didn't know what to do.
Mom. That's not what I asked.
Ever since then, I was so afraid you'd leave again.
I wanted you to take me with you if you did,
so I was always careful not to get on your bad side.
I want to know that there was another reason...
and that it wasn't because you hated me.
I feel bad...
that I was mean to Eun Joo my whole life, that's why.
Right.
When I came back,
I realized that I had scarred you for life.
You used to smile all the time...
and were confident even after causing trouble.
But you started being cautious...
and looked around...
to check where I was.
I'm so sorry.
I was reminded...
of what Dad said at Eun Joo's wedding.
What's wrong with you?
Why do you keep making an angry face?
I'm not angry.
Is it because I'm not as elegant as his family?
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry I'm not suitable to be Eun Joo's father.
I think...
I now understand...
what he meant.
What do I do?
Just what do I do?
I was going to keep this...
between me and him forever.
What do I do?
Right.
No secret lasts forever.
Who knew your father would suddenly turn 22...
and bring that up?
Give him that picture.
I'm sick and tired of his immaturity.
He's not at fault. I figured it out.
Should I act like I don't know?
Eun Joo is still my older sister. That will never change.
There's nothing to change.
No matter what anyone says, your father is Eun Joo's father.
There's no doubt about it.
If not for that, I wouldn't have put up with him until now.
Eun Joo deserves to know the truth.
Don't let her find out from someone else.
You must...
tell her yourself.
I'm home.
Gosh, what is it this time?
You're not arguing, are you?
Let's get along, please?
What a mess.
Did you...
hear our conversation? - No.
What were you talking about?
Don't you...
have anything to tell me? - No.
Have a seat.
You told me how you feel about me, so I should respond.
I drifted apart from my family once I started med school.
I have no friends I can confide in.
You were my only family and friend.
I mean it.
I'm going to go back to work tomorrow.
I'll give you as much time as you want.
Start afresh.
Find yourself a man too.
I just wanted to have a light conversation with you today.
You need a child, a husband, and love.
That's a real family.
You can never have that with me.
You don't need to plan my future so meticulously.
I'll take care of my issues myself.
I decided to be your friend, but it's hard.
It's hard to forgive you too.
But...
if I ignore that one thing, this won't be a big deal.
Because I know it all.
At least I won't be anxious because I don't know.
Wait until I figure out what I want.
You decided by yourself and only notified me.
Don't pressure me.
That's only fair.
Sure.
Do what you want.
We have to reschedule the meeting.
Mr. Im is taking time off.
He just got here. How could he take a vacation?
Maybe he's shacking up with his girlfriend.
Hey, Eun Hee found out.
What? - About Eun Joo.
I don't know how, but I heard her...
talk with my mom about Eun Joo.
Did she say something to you?
She doesn't know that I know.
Do you really think she doesn't know?
I doubt she knows.
Then she'll ask me about it for sure.
What do you want me to tell her?
Let's just tell her the truth.
But...
I told her not to call you, so I doubt she will.
Why?
Back when you avoided her calls,
I thought it was wrong of her to come to the office.
She's seeing someone, so I told her to keep a distance...
Must she keep a distance from me if she's seeing someone?
And why must she listen to her little brother criticize her?
Is it because you work at my company?
In case you'd become uncomfortable?
You're wrong about that.
That's our business, not yours. Stay out of it.
You're not being punished here. Bring that and come with me.
Leave him be. He has been pulling all-nighters almost every night.
I know.
He gets so many texts these days.
Because he's super popular in the marriage market.
What do you mean?
If you call in response to her text,
you'll just announce that you're old.
Hello, this is Golden Goose Media.
Could I check the director's schedule for today?
Is it possible to pull up our appointment?
A meeting with the publisher?
I see. Okay, bye.
I think the boss stepped outside for a moment.
Do you want your usual?
I'll take it to go.
Sure.
I'm quitting here soon.
You're not taking it to go because of me, are you?
I'll be gone shortly, so don't worry.
Hi, Chan Hyuk. - Hey.
Are you here for the meeting?
No comments yet. Be the first to leave one.
