Episode 24
Something happened to you, didn't it?
You weren't asleep?
Don't even think about lying to me.
What could happen?
I...
I'm going to live here with you, Dad and Kang-san.
What?
Why?
And what about Young Master Jun-pyo, school and everything?
I already told you. There's nothing between Jun-pyo and me.
Also...
Mom, after everything, you still think that there's any future left?
You...
So in this small room, selling fish, crab, and webfoot octopus,
smelling like fish, that's how you want to live?
You want to live like that?
And what's wrong with that?
We're ruined.
We're finished.
Now, with what hope can we live on?
Mom...
Oh, that's enough!
Yi-Jung.
Still no news about Jan-di?
No. I really don't what to think.
She turned off her phone and only said that she was going somewhere.
Whether it was east or west, she wouldn't even say.
She's probably fine.
It's Geum Jan-di, after all.
It seems like you know my friend better than I.
I told you, I know a little bit about women.
How is Jun-pyo doing?
He's a mess, what else?
Ga-eul.
Now, shouldn't we have a talk about us?
Ga-eul, I...
I'll get going.
You don't need to feel any obligation towards me.
I know everything... how you feel.
That's why I'm not going to seek you out anymore.
Ga-eul.
My teacher...
No.
Eun-jae said she did everything she wanted to do,
so she had no regrets or lingering feelings.
Thank you...
for giving me the opportunity to do my best.
When I hear from Jan-di, I'll let you know immediately.
Well, then...
What would be good?
Sir, our Jun-pyo...
If he continues like this, he really might break down.
I'm so afraid.
Miss, you too can't be like this.
That's not it.
This time, I really don't have a good feeling.
Miss.
Dad...
Dad!
How could you do something like that?
Can't you see that even without you causing a fuss, things are difficult enough as is?
Mom...
No, I'm beginning to hate calling you "Mom."
How...
How could someone...
do something as extreme as that?!
Exactly what are you talking about?
How could you tell me that the father I love was dead?!
You...
How did I find out?
At this moment, that's what you're curious about?
I'm asking you.
Leaving Dad buried like that, did you intend to deceive me forever?!
Why did you do it? Why?!
Your father would've wanted it as well.
Wh-What did you say?
I planned to take responsibility for everything.
But then, your father suddenly collapsed.
Into a condition no different than the living dead.
The lineage of the great Shinhwa Group ending in such manner.
I couldn't let that happen.
My pride wouldn't allow it.
Your pride?
You're saying that telling us that the father we love died,
telling the whole world, and also deceiving your children.
That absurd situation was all because of your pride?!
It was for your father.
What are you talking about?
Jun-pyo.
I'll carefully explain everything.
I...
I asked you what you were talking about?!
What does Dad's son have to do when Dad's not around?
I must protect my sister, Mom, and Shinhwa Group.
Gu Jun-pyo!
As one man to another, can you promise?
For the sake of this group, which you might toss away in an instant,
your father did his best to the very end.
Are you thinking of throwing him away too?
I'm sorry, Young Master.
I'm truly sorry.
This time, I realized it.
That you and I are from two very different worlds.
No matter how much you fight it, you're Shinhwa Group's Gu Jun-pyo.
There's not a moment that I ever forgot that.
I'm at the fish market.
Everyone, look over here. Right now, it's overflowing with fresh seafood.
Oh, it's a webfoot octopus, a webfoot octopus! Wow!
These days, webfoot octopuses must be the best.
No! It's so good that if two people eat it together,
one wouldn't notice if the other died!
I'll give it you for cheap. Buy some!
Everyone, you heard, right?
For tonight's dinner, how about cooking some webfoot octopus soup as a spring dish?
Reporting from Isangsaewodo, I'm reporter Cho Bo-ram.
Mister! Mister!
I'm going to see Dad.
You're going to come with me, right?
I'm not going.
Jun-pyo!
Jun-pyo.
Come and talk with your mom.
"Mom"?
Was there even one moment when you were like a real mother?
You should stop the "mother act" now, because such a name doesn't suit you...
President Kang.
I'm not interested.
What?
If you're going, then go by yourself.
Gu Jun-pyo.
Jun-pyo, are you serious?
Don't be like that and just go.
I said that I wasn't interested!
Let me ask you one more time.
Are you serious?
If you want to see her so badly, then leave.
I'm heading out now. Come or not. Do what you want.
Weren't times like these when you needed Geum Jan-di more?
And after I bring her back, what am I supposed to do?
Now, I can't promise her anything.
That I'll always make her laugh,
"I'll make you happy, so believe only in me."
My confidence to say such things has disappeared.
Jun-pyo.
Being the child of that kind of person.
Being a member of that kind of family.
If even I hate it this much, then how do you think she'll feel?
During that time, given what she went through, she probably detested it.
It's Geum Jan-di, so it could be different.
That's even more reason why I can't.
Because it's the woman I love.
That's why I can't even more now.
It would've been nice if we could've sold the rest of it.
Mom, I'm hungry!
Oh, Kang-san, sorry, sorry! I'll prepare dinner at once.
Let's go.
Wh... what's the matter with everyone?
"What's the matter"? But that's what we want to ask you!
Even if you look down on us because we're simple country people,
you should be discrete about it.
How could you try to con us?
Con?
You said that you're Shinhwa Group's future daughter-in-law?
My daughter says that Shinhwa Group has a different fiancée!
Look at this!
This young lady is the daughter of a wealthy family even bigger than Shinhwa Group!
Those two getting married was even on the news!
But that's already an old matter.
Then what? Are you really Shinhwa Group's future daughter-in-law or what?!
That's not it.
Oh, whatever! Hurry up and immediately pay back the money you borrowed!
Pay it back immediately?
That's right! Who knows if tonight, you'll flee in the middle of the night?
Think about how you sat there and ate the food you got from us.
How is that any different from conning us?
Even if it's only the interest, hurry and pay up!
Wait, how can you suddenly...
No, pay up now!
Hurry and pay up, huh?
I'll give it to you.
Ji... Ji-hoo!
That Yo... Young Mast...
That money... For now, I'll repay it.
He's handsome.
And tall...
He must be the son of a rich family.
Oh, what should we do?
See! See!
So she was telling the truth about having a chaebol for a future son-in-law.
So he's the young master of Shinhwa Group?
Just look at his face!
He just radiates refinement...
Oh my, it's the first time I saw such a handsome young master!
Must be nice.
I'm not dying by myself. I'm not going to die by myself.
How did you know that I was here?
I heard it.
The emergency bell.
I couldn't sleep at night because I was scared I wouldn't hear it.
How could you do it?
How can someone be like this?
Ji-hoo, I've received too much from you.
You've done more for me.
♫ Does it seem like I'd be fine without you? ♫
♫ Are you fine without me? ♫
♫ A world without you is so hard, ♫
♫ I resent myself for breathing. ♫
♫ What should I do? Even now, I live each day broken by your single word. ♫
♫ If being like this is wrong, ♫
♫ tell me. You and me. ♫
How's your grandfather?
Like before, going to work at the clinic.
Perhaps he'll keep going until he collapses again?
That's like your grandfather.
Grandfather gave this to me.
He said that my grandmother gave it to my mother.
Ji-hoo.
I don't know when it started either.
But... now, I can't live without you.
I can't accept this.
Jan-di.
I thought that I could forget him.
I thought that I'd forgotten him.
And yet...
This is the only thing I can't throw away.
It won't let go.
I can't sever my connection to Gu Jun-pyo.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, Ji-hoo.
It's okay.
Jan-di...
I don't think that I can let go of her.
Instead of me who only makes things difficult for her,
I even once thought that it'd be better to send her to you.
No, that's not it.
If I had to give up Jan-di to another guy...
I hated to even imagine it but if I had to do that,
then that other guy absolutely has to be you.
Ji-hoo, it couldn't be anyone else but you.
That's what I thought.
I'm not dying by myself.
I need to see the end of Shinhwa Group!
I won't be the only one who's ruined.
No!
Jun-pyo!
Jun-pyo.
Jun-pyo!
Hey, Gu Jun-pyo.
Quickly, wake up.
Gu Jun-pyo!
He had it coming. You reap what you sow.
It's not your fault.
Hey, Gu Jun-pyo!
Wake up!
Hello?
My friend is dying.
I said that my friend is dying!
Jun-pyo.
Jun-pyo!
Wake up.
Hey!
Wake up!
This is breaking news.
Tonight around 8pm, in a local coastal town, the successor to Shinhwa Group,
Managing Director Gu Jun-pyo, was a victim of an assault.
This news comes as a shock.
Caught at the scene, the defendant Kim was a representative of a company
that was bought out by Shinhwa Group.
It was revealed that he did it for revenge.
Now are you satisfied?
Is this what you wanted?
Miss, please calm down.
You said that in the end, it was all for Jun-pyo's sake.
You always said that it was because of the Shinhwa Group assets
that were to be handed down to Jun-pyo.
So look.
Look at what's happened to your son, your overwhelmingly happy son
if we go by your words.
Mom...
Do you have any idea what your son likes to eat,
what he likes, or what he wants to do?
They say that the surgery went well.
It appears that he's past the critical stage.
That's a relief.
Then, we should go.
What did you say?
There's an urgent meeting in Hong Kong.
Was Dad not enough?
Answer me.
Which is more important to you, Shinhwa Group or Jun-pyo?
Just once, tell me!
Madam President.
Jun-pyo...
really likes egg roll-ups and ramen.
He especially likes to eat the fish cake from street vendors.
In one sitting, he probably would eat about 20 of them.
He also likes to pack a lunchbox and go on a picnic.
Using the telescope that his parents bought him,
he likes to look at the stars.
Don't worry.
Gu Jun-pyo.
He'll get better.
Jun-pyo.
- Jun-pyo. - Are you okay?
Jun-pyo, it's your sister.
Jun-pyo.
Jun-pyo was moved to a room.
You should go.
If he knows you're by his side, he'll wake up sooner.
Stop here for a second.
Do you have any idea...
What your son...
Likes to eat?
What he likes or...
what he wanted to do?
Jun-pyo...
really likes egg roll-ups and ramen.
He especially likes to eat the fish cake from street vendors.
In one sitting, he probably would eat about 20 of them.
Let's go.
I don't know when it started either.
But...
Now, I can't live without you.
Jun-pyo!
I told you before.
It can't be anyone but you.
Grandpa.
Ji-hoo.
Grandpa.
Yes, yes.
Tell me.
Setting aside Shinhwa, and my being a plutocrat,
have you ever considered me as just one man?
No.
No matter how much you try, you're still Shinhwa Group's Gu Jun-pyo.
I've never forgotten that, not even for a second.
Gu Jun-pyo.
Can you hear me?
I lied to you again.
To me, you're...
always just "Gu Jun-pyo."
You're the dummy Gu Jun-pyo
who likes the ugly, poor, nameless Jan-di.
So wake up.
Wake up.
Wake up, Gu Jun-pyo. Wake up.
Honey!
Is everything okay?
You're healthy, right?
We... We moved back to our house.
This is all because of you.
Because you suffered a lot on the boat.
Yeah!
The building owner felt bad about last time, so we're renting it out for a cheaper price.
Dad! When I become a pro-gamer, you won't have to work on a boat.
So come back soon! Soon! Soon!
Dad! Dad! Dad! Don't worry about us and be safe!
Yes, Honey.
Come back soon!
Ji-hoo.
Jun-pyo woke up.
Jan-di, welcome.
You look so normal for just waking up.
That's the miracle of human recovery.
Thanks.
For what?
For living.
Did you think the almighty Gu Jun-pyo would live an unnatural death?
You really are Gu Jun-pyo.
He said "live."
Jan-di, why are you just standing there?
Come here.
You worried a lot, right?
All the test results came out fine.
That's great, Gu Jun-pyo.
But who's this rustic girl?
Jun-pyo, don't you know Geum Jan-di?
Stop playing around.
Geum Jan-di? What's that?
Gu Jun-pyo...
Jun-pyo...
Do you remember everyone else?
Are you kidding?
Tell me my name.
So Yi-Jung.
Then me? Do you remember me?
Are you crazy? You're Song Woo-bin.
But...
You don't know who Geum Jan-di is?
Am I supposed to?
Is she your girl, Ji-hoo?
It's selective memory loss.
For this particular patient,
It's Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder due to the accident which was almost like a terror.
But how come he can't remember just one person?
It's perhaps because the memories of that person were too painful
or too important that the strain made him forget those memories.
Then, when do you think they'll come back?
I'm not sure.
Usually it takes about six months,
but sometimes there are cases when they never come back.
Hi, Gu Jun-pyo.
The weather's really nice, right?
Do you want to go take a walk?
You.
Who do you think you are, to come barging into my room?
Are you interested in me?
Don't you think you're being ridiculous as Ji-hoo's girl?
Hey!
I'm not anyone's girl!
If I must say it, more than being Ji-hoo's girl...
I'm your...
Get out.
Are you deaf?
I said to get out. I hate girls like you.
Gu Jun-pyo.
Can you leave? I'm going to sleep.
Why aren't you coming out?
Come out!
I said to come out!
Come out!
Hey!
Here you go.
So don't cry anymore. Okay?
The vending machines here have to be hit to do their job.
Thanks.
It sounds like you been in the hospital for a long time.
- What's your name? - Yu-mi. I'm Jang Yu-mi.
I'm a junior at Korea Arts School.
I'm Geum Jan-di.
A senior at Shinhwa High.
You go to Shinhwa High?
I'm so jealous.
Anyway, whom did you come to see?
A friend.
I see.
I broke my leg while skiing so I'm a long stay guest here for the whole vacation.
Do you want to sit here?
Be careful.
Yu-mi, your personality seems really bright.
It's just because.
In the hospital, everyone gets very depressed and annoyed,
And I hate that.
What can you to do for that type of people?
For people who've been in the hospital and have gotten really annoyed.
You just have to act naturally.
Naturally?
Hey, are you okay?
Brother, it looks like you're not fully healed yet.
If you just walk around like that, it's dangerous.
"Brother"?
Do you want ride a wheelchair?
Don't worry about it.
Then do you want my crutches?
Brother, do you know how to use crutches?
Hey, Peanut, don't pretend like you know me, and get away.
Your personality is nasty, huh?
I'm not a Peanut, but Yu-mi. Jang Yu-mi.
What?
You're the one in the VIP room, right?
I don't know what kind of great person you are, but all patients are the same!
No, wait. In this hospital, I'm your senior!
If you don't want to break your other leg, here lean on me.
No. No, Yu-mi.
Since your leg isn't healed yet, here, lean on me.
You... didn't leave yet?
Jan-di, I'll see you later!
So we should do something to give him some shock.
Or how about re-enacting something to trigger his memories?
Like?
What events with big impact, relating to Geum Jan-di, are there?
Gu Jun-pyo.
What's with her now?
What are you doing?
When you get your memory back, call me.
What?
What kind of crazy girl is this?
What kind of girl are you?
Jun-pyo, did you remember anything?
Remember what?
How am I so unlucky, that a trash girl is teasing me?
Was the memory too old?
No... I think it was too weak.
We should try something harder next time.
Harder?
I told you this is the last time I'm going to let it go.
Hey.
Whom are you, to keep playing jokes on me?
I'm not going to hold back any longer, even if you're Ji-hoo's girl.
Gu Jun-pyo.
I told you I wasn't going to let it slide!
I told you!
Hey, Yoon Ji-hoo.
Make sure I never see this girl again!
Understand?!
Don't worry about it.
You're not a person who's easily forgotten.
He could've been having such a hard time that he wanted to forget me.
Even if he did,
if it was a connection to be forgotten,
do you think you'd feel more comfortable?
That makes no sense!
Where in the world is there a person that gets special crutches?
I'm being serious.
Do you think the almighty Gu Jun-pyo would use any kind of crutches?
Here, hold it once.
You're serious! Why is this so light?!
It doesn't feel like I'm holding it.
It's called titanium.
This is so funny, Brother.
Jun-pyo.
Ji-hoo. You were here?
Oh, it's Jan-di!
Hey!
Jan-di, did you see Jun-pyo's crutches?
He says it's titanium. Isn't it funny?
It's not like he's Iron Man or anything.
Wow. Your boyfriend's really handsome.
Hello, my name's Jang Yu-mi. It's nice to meet you.
It's cold, let's go in.
Who is it?
Late night delivery.
It'll be really nice to look at the stars through a telescope.
Do you like stars?
Stars?
The star that shines the brightest on a winter night.
I guess I can say it's a star like the almighty Gu Jun-pyo.
What?
Then I'll be that one.
Brother, what's wrong? Does something hurt?
I feel like I forgot something important...
but I can't remember.
I feel like my chest is going to explode.
Don't try so hard.
If it's important, you'll remember.
If you can't remember, then it probably wasn't important.
It's not good for your body either if you stress out about it.
How are you feeling?
Hello!
We're seeing you a lot more.
We're HC.
HC?
All the patients and the nurses in the hospital said that we were.
What do you think? Do we look good together?
Jun-pyo, do you still not remember everything?
What am I supposed to remember?
Geum Jan-di.
Do you not remember?
You keep saying something about Jan-di.
Why do I need to remember your girlfriend?
Just forget all that...
And of all girls, where did you find such a forceful girl like her?
Does she think she's a gangster or something?
Make sure she doesn't come into my room ever again.
Gu Jun-pyo!
Just stop.
What's wrong with him?
Ji-hoo.
I'll get some tea.
I'm sorry.
What are you sorry about?
I should the one that's sorry.
I got angry without thinking.
I didn't stop you because Jun-pyo would had gotten hurt.
I thought that you'd have been more hurt if you had hit him.
So I stopped you.
How long did you wait outside.
Why is your hand so cold?
Give me.
The thing that's cold right now is your heart.
You don't have to act so strong in front of me.
It's not acting strong.
But because you're here...
Because you're here for me, I can become strong.
I'll go get the tea.
Abracadabra... Gu Jun-pyo will remember Geum Jan-di.
I remember now.
The person I forgot is you.
It's all over now.
I'm not going to allow this ridiculous situation break you two up.
That girl's expression won't disappear from my head.
In the end...
Geum Jan-di and Gu Jun-pyo were only...
were only just this.
Today, we have something to tell everyone here, which is why we arranged this party.
Gu Jun-pyo, Jang Yu-mi...
We'll be studying abroad together in America starting next month.
