Please! Please!
Ji-Eun!
Ji-Eun, please!
I hate myself so much.
I am...
...ashamed of myself.
Ji-Eun!
Ji-Eun! Wake up!
Ji-Eun!
Ji-Eun! Oh, god!
Ji-Eun!
Oh, god! Oh, god!
Ji-Eun!
Ji-Eun! Wake up!
Oh, god! Ji-Eun!
Ji-Eun!
(Episode 16: And We Will Become Something To Someone)
"I always take a nap under this tree's shade."
"You'll provide me a place to nap, right?"
"The mushroom from this tree is very delicious."
"I would hate if if I won't be able to collect the mushroom."
What are you doing?
I want to listen too.
Sure, come here.
What is it?
"Beautiful flowers bloom under the tree."
"Please make sure flowers bloom."
"I can't make a house where everybody could live in."
"I'm asking you to let me live in this tree."
"I won't be able to build a house as great as this tree."
Ta-da!
Wow!
I'm sorry.
Ah-ram is sick so I won't be able to go for a few days.
I'm fine.
Stay there for your kids.
Is Ah-ram okay?
Are you okay, Soo-ah?
I'm fine.
The kids are becoming more stable.
Hope you're doing well too, Ha-yoon.
I'll contact you.
(Choi Soo-ah)
Look here, Ms. Kim.
Why are you making such a big deal over some rings?
I heard you demanded $50,000.
I'll give it to you.
Please just let this go for my children's sakes.
I'll go throw away Do Ha-yoon's ring.
I'm sorry.
My wife lighted some scented candles.
But I guess a breeze caused a fire.
Yes.
The firefighters who were there called us.
Anyways, I'm glad the fire was immediately put out.
It's a new villa so the sprinkler system responded quickly.
Please sign here.
I'm sorry.
There has recently been an increase in fire from scented candles.
So from now on, please be more cautious.
I understand.
Ji-Eun...
Let's...
...get...
...divorced.
You should head back inside now.
It's not like I'm going to die.
It's because you're in your first trimester of pregnancy.
I should stay near you as your mother.
I'll take good care of her so don't worry.
She has Jung-woo so don't worry.
Your mom's going overboard.
Please take good care of her, Jung-woo.
Yes, ma'am. Don't worry.
Goodbye.
It's a phantom pregnancy.
Pardon?
No, it can't be.
Look at this. There are two lines.
I'm sure there were two lines.
This happens sometimes.
Sometimes the pregnancy tests are defective too.
Unfortunately, based on our hospital's tests,
you're not pregnant.
No.
No! No!
Min-young.
Jung-woo!
It can't be true!
It can't be!
We are pregnant!
- Okay. - Jung-woo!
I really am pregnant!
I'm telling you I am!
I know.
It seems like your wife is very shocked.
You should take good care of her.
A married couple should overcome difficult times like this together.
Soo-ah.
Can we meet today?
Oh, my! Your hand!
I accidentally hurt my hand a little.
It's your right hand to make things worse.
It will heal quickly.
So don't worry.
Even so...
I'm...
...leaving for Spain soon.
Again?
This time...
I think I'll be gone for a long time.
How long?
I'm not sure.
I don't know if it will be a year or two.
If I like it there, I might just settle down there.
Ha-yoon.
I'm sorry.
I've always been like a gypsy.
So I get bored of everything.
And I can't stay in one place for a long time.
Including people.
That's enough.
I understand what you're trying to say.
I also realized now that...
...I'm a woman who doesn't deserve to accept this from you.
How is this...?
It probably followed you here like me because it still had regrets.
But you...
...should leave without any regrets.
Forget about everything that happened here.
And...
...forget about me too.
Are you sure you're okay with me taking Hope?
Of course.
Thank you.
Should I call a taxi for you?
No.
I'm just going to walk to the main street.
You should...
...head home now.
How are you going to live from now on?
I don't know.
Can you live alone?
Yes.
I should try.
How?
Just.
As I wish.
That sounds great too.
I'm really grateful to you.
You were a good person, Love's Father.
Go in.
Ji-Eun.
I'm sorry.
For what?
I...
...made you very lonely.
I should go.
Please know that...
...the nest you provided me....
...was always warm.
In the end, you're leaving.
I'm going to try to live my life now.
I'm sad.
Now that I'm back, you're leaving.
Are you back for good?
I'm not sure.
I think for a while,
I'll need to take care of the kids.
Then what about him?
He's leaving for Spain soon.
I think he'll be working there for a while.
And you?
Are you okay?
I don't know.
I don't think I'm okay or not okay.
It's in between.
But I decided to think of it this way.
When I was next to him, I'm happy because I'm by his side.
When I'm next to my kids,
I'm happy because I'm by my kids' sides.
Very happy.
Like this.
I knew there was a reason why I liked you.
At first,
I was really envious of you.
I wondered if I would be able to live like you in 10 years.
Could I live so splendidly and elegantly?
But you realized I'm just an empty shell, right?
No.
I was actually the empty shell.
I lived in a world created by someone else,
doing what someone else told me to do.
I lived, thinking that was for the best.
And now?
I don't know.
You don't know?
Starting today,
I plan to live the way I want to live.
Son Ji-Eun.
You can do it.
I can do it!
The wild life!
3 p.m. on a weekday.
Soo-ah returned home.
And...
3 p.m. on a weekday.
I...leave my house.
Last hot summer,
what kind of dream did we dream?
I can't go to the airport to see you off.
I'm busy.
I also hired a divorce attorney.
Another one for you too.
Now that I think about it, standing in court with you...
...is more horrifying!
I realized getting a divorce is the easiest thing to do in the world.
Have a safe trip.
The amount Denmark demanded is...
$2 million dollars.
Tell them we got it.
Sir.
It's $2 million dollars.
If we try to weasel our way out of this,
we might not be able to stop it even with $20 million instead of $2 million.
How is his hand?
Is he badly injured?
You did that, didn't you?
I...
...broke up with him.
Even though I truly loved him,
there were so many reasons why I should break up with him.
Are you okay?
I'm trying.
Chul.
Thank you for loving a woman like me.
You should date a woman who deserves your love now.
[OnDemandKorea Ver] Channel A E16 'Love Affairs in the Afternoon' "And We Will Become Something To Someone" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
Now...
...I will live as the real me.
Not as someone's wife.
Not as someone's daughter-in-law.
Not as someone's lover.
I will live as Son Ji-Eun.
I plan to live my life in the most Son Ji-Eun way.
What is it, Hope?
Do you want to escape too?
All right.
Goodbye, Hope!
From now on,
live the way you want to live!
Don't care about what others think!
All living organisms find their own places in their own ways.
I'm sure Hope will live its own life.
And I, Son Ji-Eun, will too.
Where are you going today?
We plan to go to the Mural Village today.
That place is nice
but if you have time, I strongly recommend visiting Somaemul Island by boat too.
- Really? - Yes.
We should go if we have time.
See you later!
- We'll be back! - Yes.
(Our Forest Ecological Research Institute)
Mr. Yoon!
Are you really the head of this institute?
Probably?
You've become successful.
You even earned your PhD in the U.S.
What about you?
How have you been?
Don't you know that my cafe owner carries me on his back?
Then I should carry you on my back today.
Bingo.
Mr. Yoon.
Have you been happy?
Of course.
I was happy.
Why are you suddenly asking me that?
No reason.
Studying isn't easy either.
That was easier to me.
Jeez!
Hello! I applied for the script competition.
You already contacted the winners?
Yes, I understand.
Yes.
I already failed 3 times this year to win script contests.
But my script might be chosen on the 30th time.
(Pak Kyong-Ni Memorial Hall)
Is the Do Ha-yoon article ready?
You sent it as email?
Okay, hold on.
Yes.
Looks good.
Publish it as it is.
(Meet a Genius's Studio: Artist Do Ha-Yoon's Exhibition, Dancer)
This exhibition was a success too.
Your artwork, Dancer, was especially praised by critics.
Where did you get your inspiration for that piece?
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.
You should repeat.
Place your leg like this.
Yes, that's right.
And make your abs tight.
Here, here. Good.
From your neck to all the way here.
- Picture someone tugging this end here. - Yes, yes.
I understand.
Good work!
- Good work. - Thank you.
- See you next week. - Yes, see you next week.
Thank you.
You're so pretty, Ms. Choi.
Thank you for the compliment.
Don't be absent on Friday.
Of course!
Have a safe trip.
Thank you!
Mom.
Pick an outfit for me.
- Here. - What outfit?
The pink looks pretty.
The pink?
Doesn't it seem too childish?
It's too girly.
Then...
The white!
White?
This seems too much like a swan.
Then black!
Doesn't this look like a black swan cosplay though?
You look pretty in everything.
So wear what you want to wear the most.
The one I want to wear the most?
Mom, what would that be?
Mom, I really don't know.
No.
You already know what it is.
So instead of asking me, ask your heart.
Okay.
Bye!
Bye, Mom!
Hello!
Welcome.
Wow, it's abalone!
You collected so many!
This isn't a lot.
Would you like to try one?
Yes.
Good, good.
It's good, right?
It's so good!
It is, right?
Anyways, you said your knees are bad.
So why are you crouching down like that?
Then you should buy everything.
So I can hurry up and go home!
My boss would scold me.
Tell your boss not to be so stingy!
You should eat this by yourself.
No, please just give me 1 kg.
Really?
How much is this?
This is $50 per one.
(Noh Min-young)
"We got married!"
(Chang-gook)
Hello, Chang-gook.
How are you?
Yes, I'm fine.
Mom misses you very much.
Would you like to come by during the weekend?
I will.
Okay.
My goodness! He's so handsome!
I heard his coffee is great too.
I heard he learned from a great barista.
Really?
He's so perfect.
So cool.
Ji-min.
What brings you here?
I came because I felt uneasy. Why?
What happens if you cheat on me because woman flirt with you?
You'll lock me up. Imprisoned.
(Garam Convalescent Hospital)
(Na Ae-ja)
Ma'am.
Oh, my! Oh, my, my!
You're here, Ji-Eun!
You should put your slippers on.
That's not important.
Anyways, what brings you here?
I just wanted to see you.
Where are you sick?
I'm not sick.
I'm not sick at all!
Chang-gook wanted me to get all kinds of tests
so I got so many needles stuck in me.
I'm glad. I was worried.
See! See!
This is my daughter-in-law.
She's Ji-Eun.
Is that so?
You were always bragging about your daughter-in-law.
She really is pretty.
- Thank you. - She's not just pretty.
She has a really good heart too!
Goodness! There you go again, Mother!
Your daughter-in-law, Yoon-ah, is here.
What are you talking about?
I have another daughter-in-law?
So...I...
Ma'am.
Are you happy to see your daughter-in-law?
Yes.
I am.
I'm very happy!
I'm sorry.
Her dementia isn't severe.
But she has episodes like that sometimes.
Whenever she does, she asks where you are.
She tells me to bring you.
No.
Thank you for contacting me.
I wanted to see her again at least once.
But seeing her like this...
...breaks my heart.
Don't be too worried.
These days, medications are great so if we just take good care of her,
the disease won't get worse.
I'm glad.
Ah-Jin!
Wow, look who it is!
Wow, you look so pretty!
I'm going to learn ballet too!
Goodness!
Ah-Jin.
Congratulations on your graduation show ahead of time.
Don't get your hopes too high. I'm just going to do what I can.
Yes, don't be nervous and just do whatever you want.
I like that better.
Okay, the performance will start soon.
Family members should return to their seats now.
Ah-Jin, she wants us to go in.
See you! Good luck!
Thank you!
Ah-Jin, you can do it!
I can do it!
You're special so don't worry.
Mom, Dad.
I'm sorry, Yoon-ah.
I didn't come here for this to happen.
No, it's okay.
In Mother's memory, she may get confused.
Oh, baby. Did you spill?
Would you hand me a handkerchief?
You spilled?
It's okay.
Love must be happy
that her parents dote on her so much.
I'm glad to see you so happy.
Goodness, you're sleepy.
Sleep.
Are you leaving right away?
No, there's a place I have to stop by.
I see.
Have a safe trip.
Chang-gook.
Raise Love well.
I will.
Goodbye.
Ji-Eun.
Be happy.
Yes.
I will be.
Love returned to his arms again.
Thank you for being happy, Chang-gook.
She kept following me.
She asked how I have such a great body.
That's why you should invest in your body.
Goodness, I don't even have money to eat!
Jeez!
Gradually and deeply permeate.
"Gradually and deeply permeate?"
That's what the Japanese bindweed means.
It has an interesting meaning.
It's a vine
so the long roots go in all directions and they go deeply into the ground.
The shoots sprout inside the ground so that's probably why it has that meaning.
I see.
For some reason, it has a lonely meaning.
You're right.
It can't even bear fruit.
Bye, Mom!
Bye!
Ah-Jin, Ah-ram.
Come to my house during the weekend.
I'll be waiting for you with a delicious meal.
Mom, please make me spaghetti.
Shall I?
You can't! I'm going to gain weight!
Hold on! I'll drive you home as soon as I see the kids go inside the house.
It's okay.
I'm going to get some air while I walk.
Go inside with the kids.
Okay then.
Bye, Mom!
Bye!
Go home safely, Mom.
I'll come over with Ah-ram during the weekend.
Okay.
Go inside.
Go in.
Congratulations!
You're the best!
What is this?
I became the real Son Ji-Eun now.
Although I'm a poor aspiring writer who worries everyday about her finances,
I still...
...like who I am right now.
Did you find love?
I guess you haven't yet.
I think...
...I just saw it.
My Love.
I think I finally understand why Love flew away.
Maybe Love wanted to confidently fly into that rough sky
with its own two wings?
In some way, like me in this moment...
...and like you.
