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

They say that children...

are incarnations of creditors in one's past life.

A mother with a large brood never has a peaceful day...

and life is better without children to care for.

Old sayings couldn't be more right.

I wonder how our ancestors came up with such wise notions.

Nicely done!

You're bleeding.

Joon Seon, are you all right?

Of course.

Some ointment and a good day's rest...

will clear this up instantly.

Please have me again sometime. I can even do more dangerous stunts.

Sure thing. By the way, stay for dinner today.

I'll pass today. I'm already late, you see.

Late for what?

Finalizing my divorce.

My eldest son who's a stunt man or whatever...

signed himself up as a guarantor for a friend three years ago.

He lost his house because of it and ended up getting divorced.

- Mom! - Yes?

He crawled back into my house...

with nothing but the clothes on his back.

Did you land in Paris?

The flight must've been delayed.

There was weather trouble before boarding.

They're making you standby for too long these days.

You should ask for a raise.

You know how it is. So where are you?

I came to see a friend with Ji Hun.

It was getting stuffy at home.

That same year,

my eldest daughter who thinks that being pretty makes her a queen...

found out about her bigamist husband...

and signed the divorce papers right away.

Mom!

She shamelessly barged back home with her young son...

shocking me mercilessly.

I wonder if they can even grasp the level of anger I'm feeling.

Must they have gotten divorced back to back?

It's like getting hit where it already hurts.

Darn them.

Still, a dragon did rise from the ditch...

giving me hope.

Unlike her older siblings,

my second daughter is as smart as they come.

Her job isn't anything to brag about. Just a doctor.

"Also..."

"She might not be the smartest,"

"but my diligent youngest daughter does her best at everything,"

"and she's getting married in a few days."

Goodness, congratulations.

You have a daughter who's a doctor...

and one who's getting married soon.

I guess you were half successful with your kids.

Just kidding.

The anonymous listener...

- from Jungang-dong... - Young Dal!

Ok Boon wrote this letter to the radio show.

I can't believe her.

Why would she when there's nothing to be proud about?

At least she kept it anonymous.

The herbal cosmetics set they'll be giving her...

is worth about 200 dollars too.

- It's worth 200 dollars? - Yes.

- Mr. Song, good day. - Oh, hi.

- Can I get a medium-sized portion? - One medium size,

- but add in some extra chunks. - Okay.

I see that your wife isn't here which is unusual. Is she elsewhere?

Yes, she went to someplace nice.

What now?

What? Is she insane?

You have got to be kidding me.

Again?

What?

Unbelievable.

Did Ms. Jang go on a trip somewhere?

No, she went out to do something even better.

To spend money.

Mom, let's look at this one.

Gosh, how sexy.

I don't know if you can even call this sleepwear.

They all seem pretty to me.

Besides, you should look sexy as a newlywed.

Are you looking for sleepwear for couples?

Yes.

You must be shopping for newlyweds.

Not me though. I'm divorced. These are for my sister.

Gosh, this one's pretty.

Can I see this in a small and large size?

Sure thing. Can you wait while I check our storage?

Sure.

Hey,

being a divorcee is nothing to be proud of.

Well, what else can I say? It's not like I can lie.

Anyway, don't be like that.

Divorce isn't something to be proud of,

but it's nothing to hide either.

It's trending from what I hear.

Don't try to sugarcoat it. It shouldn't be a trend.

I'm just saying that people's values have changed.

Going our own ways...

is better than living in misery.

Why would I live with a man who loves another woman?

Just shut it. It might be a trend for you,

but people my age see it as a flaw.

So don't think about causing a scene at Da Hee's wedding...

and stay quietly in your seat.

I can't help it. I have a face that people stop to stare at.

Anyway, you worked hard too to get what you wanted.

Da Hee's fiance.

After he passed the level five civil servant exam,

you cooked side dishes for him and even made kimchi for his family.

It's finally time for you to collect.

I wonder how much they pay civil servants these days.

Ga Hee, stop it.

I didn't do any of that hoping for something in return.

Is that so? That's not what I thought at all.

Why isn't Da Hee even calling us though?

Is she really going to make us plan the wedding ourselves?

She's not acting like a bride-to-be at all.

Yes, I'm listening.

A low-sodium in-flight meal?

You can choose that option yourself on the right-hand corner...

- of the airline's website... - Do I get a meal or not?

Yes, ma'am. It's all part of the package deal.

Of course, I'll confirm that option for you.

- Then have a good day... - Whatever.

Goodness. Ms. Song, you must be exhausted.

I understand though since you're balancing...

your upcoming wedding and your work.

What do you say? Should I give you the day off?

No, it's all right, sir.

As if. You seem extremely tired.

I should've known better than to promote a package deal...

a few days before your wedding.

I truly apologize for that. I'm sorry.

Don't be, sir. I'm the one who's sorry.

Oh, please. Who cares about...

the company's most important time of the year...

when our intern is getting married. Am I right?

I won't be able to make it to your wedding though...

since I'll be neck-deep in work.

I'm truly sorry, sir!

I'll work twice as hard once I get back.

- Yes? - What's going on with your dress?

The wedding hall called me.

Oh, I forgot. I need to ask Na Hee about it.

Okay, I'll call her right now.

Also, we're meeting the professor who will be officiating,

so make time tomorrow.

Tomorrow? But I still have a lot of work left.

Can't I greet him after the wedding is over?

Da Hee, that professor graduated from the same university...

as the vice-minister.

I need to get on his good side.

Please get a grip on what's important, okay?

All right, I'll make time.

This is why I told you we should push the wedding a bit.

I'm getting a call. Bye.

He always hangs up first.

Please pick up, Na Hee. I really don't have time for this.

Are you the one who changed the meds for my patient on the ventilator?

Yes.

Is it something to get this worked up over?

It seems like you want to punch me.

Who do you think you are?

What gives you the right...

Of course, I had my reasons.

What I prescribed is effective and safe.

It has been for 10 years, so what's the big deal?

But it's pricier.

- The father works... - I know.

He works at a construction site in Paju.

If the bill is too steep,

he should ask Administration for any help he can receive.

You know very well...

that swapping medicines could negate our treatment so far.

Isn't it your job to let him know that and persuade him?

You're a doctor,

not a cook who cooks up orders at a fast-food burger joint.

A what?

Are you kidding me?

Is this payback?

Is this because this patient of yours...

requested a different doctor?

Payback?

Gosh, how childish.

What's up? What's this about?

Dr. Song changed my patient's medication without asking first...

to a more expensive one.

I only swapped it back to what is more stable.

The doctor in charge makes the call on medication.

A hospital is an organization and we have rules.

Also, what you say isn't right all the time.

What she prescribed is fine.

It works just as well and it's recommended by the government.

Good work.

Eat up, guys.

- Enjoy. - Thank you.
