Episode 1
You can't!
Without my consent, you can't go anywhere!
Get out of the way.
Want to see your mother die?
Minjae, this will kill me.
Is that really what you want?
You've been controlling me like a puppet all my life!
My every single day and night, every breath I take,
everything I do is always and only to satisfy your greed!
But not this time.
I won't let you take away my soul as well!
Your grandfather is waiting.
Not for me, but for your father's sake,
play the violin just this once.
Once he ends up owning the company, then I'll let you decide as you wish.
I'll let you marry whomever you want.
Just for once, I want to live for my own sake!
Get out of the way.
I said this will kill me!
Then, should I kill myself and get it over with?
Baek Ingi is a slut!
Why waste your pity on someone who acts like a prostitute...
That's fine with me.
It doesn't matter what kind of woman Ingi really is.
Minjae...
The only thing I want is your happiness.
It's what I devoted my entire life to.
Did you?!
Yes... I did.
If it's for your sake,
I'm prepared to die a hundred, a thousand times.
My boy...
If you mean that,
then let me go.

If my happiness is what you want,
let me go, Mom.
I know how much you love me.
And I know how many sacrifices you had to make for my sake.
I love you more than anyone in this world.
Yes... I know that you do.
- That you... - I'm going.
We'll never meet again.
Erase me from your memories.
Minjae...
Minjae, I...
I...
No...
No... You can't go there, Minjae!
Minjae!
Minjae...
Honey, stop Minjae.
Let him go.
He said he's going to marry Baek Ingi!
Stop worrying about Minjae's life!
He's not even your own flesh and blood!
- What did you say? - I said let him go.
Wherever he wants to go.
Then, how about you?
Why... What about me?
Minjae!
You can't go there, Minjae!
First listen to me, I'll tell you everything about her!
- Baek Ingi -
Tell me where you're going to meet each other!
Before you see him, let's meet.
I will...
I'll do everything you ask.
I beg you...
Come, then.
I wanted to see you as well.
- Baek Ingi -
Answer the phone, Ingi...
I'm ready to leave now!
Welcome.
What should I call you, again?
Ingi.
That's not my name, is it?
Hyejin.
Did you say it was Hyejin?
Your childhood name.
That's not it, either.
You know that.
Whatever your name is...
I'll never try to dig up your past again.
I'll turn you into a star.
That's what you want.
I'll give you the kind of films that will make you famous,
along with the best CF contracts you could ask for.
No... I'll just give you the money.
But don't meet Minjae again.
Then, I'll give you everything I have.
So you promised?!
That's right...
Tell me.
What is it that you want?
You know...
What I really want...
is to see you dead.
Can you...
do that for me?
Why are you doing this to me?
Why do you resent me so much?
You don't really love Minjae, do you?
I see...
I've finally figured it out.
You never loved him to begin with.
You did all this out of spite for me.
Speak to me!
So that's not it?
Didn't you...
even miss me?
Minjae...
is not going to come.
That guy...
is not fit for the kind of world...
people like you and me live in.
And that's because he's an angel.
Ingi...
Open your eyes, baby...
Open those eyes and look at me.
Let your mother tell you everything you wanted to hear!
Open your eyes...
I'm sorry...
- Keyboys' "Let's Go to The Beach" -
Let's go to the beach pouring down with stars.
- 1973 (Bangeojin, Ulsan) -
Let's go to the beach.
Let's go to the beach exploding with the joys of youth.
Let's go to the beach.
Whisper those sweet sounds of love to my ear.
Look... Look.
You're supposed to whisper sweet sounds of love,
how can you be so clueless?
Just get out of the way, will you?
Take a good look at how you do it.
Let's go to the beach pouring down with stars.
The hell are you doing? Let's hear some chorus!
Let's go to the beach!
Let's go to the beach exploding with the joys of youth.
Let's go to the beach!
Whisper those sweet sounds of love to my ear.
Seen that? See?
When you get to "sweet sounds of love," put some sentiment into it, and...
Nayoung.
Your father's in trouble.
Hurry back home.
The hell are you saying?
They're beating up your father.
You dare lose my money?!
Conmen like you need a little time in the can so they can wake up!
Let go!
I told you I'd pay back!
Daddy...
And when is that going to happen?
A month... Just wait another month.
Shut your mouth!
Wait a month, my ass!
Let's finish talking down at the station!
Daddy, what now...
The hell are you going? Forgot we're heading for the station?
Let go... Let my father go!
You damned brat... Are you out of your mind?
Let's go!
How much is it?
How much can it possibly be?
Nayoung, you stay out of this.
You sorry-ass little brat, what the hell do you care?
Let's go!
Let go! I said let go!
Let's go!
Nayoung...
What are you waiting for?
Let go!
Does it hurt?
No.
Let me see.
I said I'm okay!
So why are you crying?
It's not this that hurts...
My feelings do.
You don't need to worry about Daddy.
He's all right.
And who ever said it was because of him?
So?!
It's only because we're poor that he had to go through all this.
Everyone else is doing just fine,
why do we have to be so poor?
Other people are having it just as hard.
You just wait.
I'll go to Seoul.
Go to Seoul to do what?
I'll become a singer.
With that manly voice of yours? Dream on...
I can do it! I can...
I'll make a ton of money, buy myself a boat...
Build this huge house...
I'll live well.
Daddy...
Daddy.
Did it go well?
You have a month to pack your things.
Break your promise, and I'll just...
You little brat, who the hell are you staring at?
One month.
Unless you want to be embarrassed in front of everyone,
pack your things and leave quietly.
Dad, what are you doing?
You just let them walk all over you?
I had to write a pledge because of you, didn't I?
To pack up and leave if I can't pay within a month.
You foolish little brat!
Daddy, stop it...
It's not Nayoung's fault.
Tell him you're sorry!
I did nothing to be sorry about!
Say what?
Did I get in debt? You did!
Nayoung...
Go apologize to your father.
Take it all out on me like a coward, will you?
If I had to blame my children for my own mistakes,
I'd rather throw myself in the damned water and die!
Nayoung...
Daddy...
She's right.
It's all my fault.
Nayoung.
Stop lashing out at your father.
What if he really ends up dying?
He's not dying.
Or if he'd die for so little,
then maybe he deserves it.
How can you say that?
How can you drink and cry all day complaining that life is hell?
As if living wasn't hard enough as it is.
That's Daddy's hometown.
Look.
Is this Yoon Sanghoon's house?
Dad, guests looking for you!
Dad?!
Go wait inside.
Come on in.
Is your father home?
My father?!
I'm a friend of his.
He went up the hills in the back...
Why?
To my mother's grave.
Will the dead come back to life if you do this?
How can you leave all the chores to your kids?
Taejin, it's you?
How did she die?
Have no idea.
Left you quite the charming daughters on her way out.
I'm here.
I'll take good care of Sanghoon,
so don't worry and rest in peace.
It's all my fault.
She met a loser like me, and had to suffer her entire life.
Come out!
Is anyone gonna bite you?
Get your ass out of there!
Come stuff yourself with everyone else!
Boiled barley and fresh hot pepper paste... Tastes great?!
It's fresh off the field.
You even farm?
Need to mention it? If I don't, I'm afraid we'll all end up starving...
What?
Would you like more lettuce?
Sure, another serving of barley while you're at it.
Yes...
Pretty, that older daughter of yours.
What did you come here for?
Ohh... Bought some land to open a factory here.
Ajeosshi, are you rich?
I love rich people.
Ajeosshi.
What's wrong with him?
Is he ill or something?
Dad...
When are we going home?
We'll spend the night over.
So cute...
I just couldn't take it anymore,
so this one night I took some drinks and headed for the Han River.
Just thought I'd be better off dead, since nothing seemed to work.
So I empty one, two, three bottles of soju,
and right as I get up ready to walk into the river,
my hometown comes back to mind.
"Ahh... I can't die this way!"
"I must succeed at all costs and go back to my hometown."
Ahh... Sanghoon.
Let's do this.
Let's promise we'll get your eldest and my youngest married.
He's a bookworm.
And your daughter seemed quite pretty as well.
So let's get them together.
Don't even joke about that nonsense.
What nonsense?
Would a city boy have eyes for a country bumpkin like her?
Ehh... If I tell him to do it, he will. What else can he do?
So it's a promise!
Let's sleep.
With all these mosquitoes, what can I do?
So you're going to remain here?
What's the point? It's not like business is any good.
Come to Seoul.
I certainly would love to, but...
Don't you worry about the money.
I said I'll take care of it, didn't I?
I'll never forget what you did for me.
You can bet on it...
The whale ship is here!
Jeongsuk, the whale hunters are here!
What are you waiting for, Jeongsuk?
I need to prepare lunch.
Are you crazy? The whale ship is here.
Let's go.
Aren't you coming?
Come with us.
I'll show you something nice.
Will you move your ass or what?
Stop acting like a sissy and get up.
Hurry up!
Take a look.
It's whale meat.
Take this.
Ever tried whale meat?
It's just to die for.
Here...
Ehh... It won't kill you.
Taste it.
Just close your eyes and swallow it.
Just stay put...
Nayoung...
How can you treat a guest that way?
Great, isn't it?
Want another piece?
Look... Take a look.
I'm going to build my factory there.
Close your ironworks shop and come work there as a manager.
That's what I'm missing the most, people I can trust.
Don't like the idea?
You owe me nothing.
How can you lose yourself in pride?
It really looks like an elephant?
Wow... It's so pretty...
If you look closely under the rocks, you'll find treasures.
Silly...
Found it!
It's pretty...
I need to show this at school.
It's really pretty.
So tell me, darling. How old are you?
She's twelve.
I'm eleven.
Looks like a boy, doesn't she?
But why do you only call her "darling"?
Isn't your sister all grown-up already?
Are you really going to make her your daughter-in-law?
Sure, your father and I made a promise.
Is he the only son you have?
Why, and if I have more?
Then I could become your daughter-in-law as well.
Listen to her...
I want to marry into a rich family, too.
Quite the filial daughter you have.
See you.
Where did he go?
- Is he gone? - Ajeosshi?
See you again!
You came here just to brag about being rich?
I don't need your money, take it back!
Are you out of your mind?
Nayoung, will you stop?
I'm not.
Yoon Nayoung!
I love this money!
It's much better than you!
It's my money!
It's mine!
It's my money!
Dad.
What?
Is that really true?
What is?
That your friend went to prison instead of you.
It was back during the independence movement, that's all.
Eonni.
What do you want to be when you grow up?
Me?!
Doctor.
What, those who cure people?
I want to live as a doctor, treating people in need.
How about you?
I will become... rich!
Rich?
Become rich, buy a lot of tasty food,
wear nice clothes,
and live in a huge house.
And what will you do to earn all that money?
Why earn money?
If you want to become rich, you'll first need to earn that money.
Are you crazy?
Know how hard it is to make money?
Then?
I could just marry someone who's loaded.
Got a point.
I'll become rich!
I love rich people!
Yoon Nayoung is going to become rich!
- 1987 Seoul -
- Seoul United Transport - YOON Nayoung
Hey... Why do you keep staring that way?
You're always a few tokens short here.
Didn't you see me giving you the entire lot?
It's usually between 120 and 130 on average, but you're always missing a dozen.
Ahh.. I've really had it with this.
Why, if I pocket a few tokens, does that make me rich?
What do you take me for?
Keep it up, and I'll have to report this to the boss.
Do it, be my guest.
Think this is the only bus company around?
Then, I'll consider that as your resignation.
Miss Yoon?
Leave it here.
Yes, see you tomorrow.
You just wait...
Whatever it takes, I'll get that bitch fired.
Can't you show some brains?
Don't you know that she and the boss's son...
Give me a break.
Think he'd let his son marry an employee?
Aigoo... How is it going?
Is it true that you'll be moving the terminal?
That's likely?!
Then, while you're at it, why not go for something bigger?
So we can even play a little football on the side, when given time.
Go on in.
(What?)
Hey.
Who said that nonsense?
Looks like I was the only one who wasn't aware of it?
What am I, some kid still wearing diapers?
Having to ask my parents permission to marry someone...
Did you tell them?
Did you tell the boss or not? That you'd marry me.
- I will... - When?
Aigoo...
Why are you so impat...
You know that if you ever change your mind it'll kill me, don't you?
Ohh... Really...
Hey.
Do you like me that much?
But, why are you leaving so early in the morning, these days?
I never see you when I wake up?!
Told you I'm frequenting a few academies.
What kind of academy?
First I go to cooking lessons, then sewing ones...
Sewing?!
I'll make all your clothes.
And if we ever have children, I'll do the same for them.
How frugal.
It'll take quite a few years for you get your father's inheritance.
Isn't being frugal a given?
Careful on your way back.
Ahh... Right. Nayoung.
Don't think I can sleep over for the time being.
Why?
Got scolded by my father for spending every night out.
- So you could just... - I'll tell him, when I get the chance.
Sweet dreams.
Wow... Take a look at her body, man.
Hey... Come on...
Keep pestering me and I'll report you to the police!
Report?! Sure...
Why don't you try, uh?
Sure got some nasty temper?!
Let go... Let me go!
Let go! Let go!!
Should know your place...
How can you try to seduce the boss's son?!
This is your special severance package, courtesy of the boss.
Try that again,
and you won't get away with it so easily next time.
Is that clear?
Let's go.
Nayoung.
Hey... Are you hurt or something?
How can you skip work without a word?
- Get up, will you? - Stop it.
What's the matter?
Hey...
What's wrong with your face?
Did anyone hit you?
Just lost my footing and fell down the hill.
Aigoo... Look at your face...
This won't do it. Get up, let's go to the hospital.
It's all right.
They said it'll be all right in a few days.
Do nothing, and your face will be ruined.
Want those scars to ruin your pretty face?
You know that a woman's face is her everything.
So what did I tell you?
Told you to be careful at night!
One needs to be careful at night,
how can a smart girl like you lose her footing?!
- Won't that be the end for her? - The hell is wrong with you?
She's done.
Look what acting all prissy got you.
Are you looking for trouble?
I hear his bride-to-be is really loaded?
Looks like they'll move to the States after marriage?
The States?!
Eonni, will you go catch the bouquet?
Will they even let her in?!
So you're getting married?
Things just turned out that way.
And how about me?
What about me?!
I'll compensate you.
Compensate?!
Compensate me with what?
Since you like money so much, wouldn't that do?
A hundred million?
Or two hundred?
Three?
Are you out of your mind?
How will you compensate me for ruining my life?
I like you, too.
I wish I could marry you myself.
I'll lie down at your parents' door.
What?
Or maybe I could kill myself under your watch?!
Nayoung...
Everyone at home knows you've been abused by thugs...
What am I supposed to do?
What did you just say?
Of course it wasn't your fault.
- But... - Nothing happened to me.
Why, what happened to me?
Just call it bad luck and get it over with.
Then you can just start anew, I'll help you every step of the way.
Are we clear, Nayoung?
It was you, wasn't it?
You nasty son of a bitch.
Think I'll just take this lying down?
You're pregnant?!
Excuse me?
You're not too quick on your feet, are you?
You're three months pregnant already.
- Seoul-Ulsan -
Nayoung...
Wow... You've gained quite some weight, haven't you?
My father?
Take a look,
he's researching this water purifier that'd help you drink right off the Taehwa River.
Ohh... Give me that.
I'll handle it. Let me do it.
Let's go.
But you've really gained some weight?!
Is my sister still working at the hospital?
Sure she is.
Looks like by this fall or next spring, she'll officially become a nurse.
But aren't you going to say hi to your father?
Did you rent out my room?
I... I'm actually... using it.
Why? Planning to stay a little longer?
I'll find myself another place right away, then.
Think I better sleep a little.
Ohh... Go ahead.
Looks in good spirits.
Even gained some weight.
She looks healthy.
Did she say she got into trouble?
Saw she was carrying bags on her way in.
She looked just fine?!
Go back to work.
Yes.
Nayoung, have some of these.
I'm growing them.
Aigoo, Boss...
Let's cheer up a little, shall we?
How can Nayoung eat with this mood?
How about school?
Didn't I tell you I took a leave?
Why?
Tuition has gone up again.
Didn't I wire you some money last time?
That wasn't even close, even working as private tutor wasn't enough.
One spends all day prancing around with men...
Dad...
Wonder if you even have time for school?!
Where are you going?
Going out for drinks.
Just sit.
Wanted a drink myself.
Don't let him drink too much.
It's bad for his health.
Dad might be acting like that in your presence,
but he always thinks about you.
Nayoung...
I really can't take it anymore...
Aigoo... Now that's more like it...
Don't tell Dad.
Unless you want to see him beat me to a pulp, that is.
If you had no intention of giving birth anyway, then why?
Just in case, I gave it a try.
His son knocked me up like this,
so I just thought I'd go meet him firsthand.
Brought a bottle of cyanide along.
Told him that if he wouldn't accept me as his daughter-in-law, I'd die right there.
And then?
Without even blinking once, he threw a bundle of money at me.
"This is for the hospital and your severance, so handle it yourself."
How despicable...
Eonni.
You work at a hospital so you should know.
I'll just get an abortion.
What are you saying?
What about the six-month-old child in your womb?
At this point, wouldn't that be murder?
Then, what else can I do?
Am I supposed to give birth to a child when I don't even know who the father is?
Nayoung...
Speak to me.
What is that supposed to mean?
You don't know who the father is?
Nayoung!
Find me a hospital.
It could be dangerous...
If things go wrong, you could be in danger as well.
I'm prepared to die!
Eonni...
I can't let this ruin my life.
How can I give birth to that child when I don't even know who the father is?
I must start anew.
I can do it.
I can find someone much richer than that Deokseong.
I can marry into a family much better off than a simple bus company owner.
Eonni...
What are you doing?
Making a diet infusion?
Traditional medicine is not going to cut it!
You need to eat properly and do some exercise to lose weight.
Stop trying to meddle in other people's business and worry about yourself.
As if last summer I didn't do that enough, and what did that get me...
Jungu.
No matter how hard you try, Dad is not giving you my sister.
Why?
Haven't you heard?
He and his rich friend promised each other they'd get her and his son married,
so that's what he's been living for all this time.
I've heard.
Enough to get tired of it.
So don't pretend you've given up, and focus on what really matters.
Would someone who hasn't shown up once in over ten years come for her?
That's exactly what I'm saying.
Ahh... That's useless! Start working out if you want to trim the fat!
Anyhow...
Aconite... Gourd...
But, Boss... With a water purifier that big,
wouldn't it be useless?
You silly, what would you possibly know?
I was just thinking aloud.
Think everyone can invent things like this?
Ohh, I agree on that, obviously.
Listen.
Using your fists and your head is a different story.
Think all those were given to me for free?
- Efficiency Award, Commendation -
But you're really something, Boss.
- You got all those awards, and still... - Say what?
Are you making fun of me?
"You got all those awards, and still can't make any money?!"
Isn't that what you meant?
Ahh... Of course not!
I really have a ton of respect for you.
Take deep breaths.
You must be out of your mind...
Think that would make any difference?
Use those folk remedies the wrong way,
and you could get into serious trouble.
Don't ever try that again.
If things go wrong, both you and the child could die.
I'd rather die as well.
What's wrong with you?
No matter how hard things might be,
it's always better to survive.
Eonni.
I'm wicked, isn't it?
Is that your fault?
It's still my child we're talking about...
How could I try to kill it...
I'll be punished for this.
But...
I will still become rich!
Whatever it takes!
I will become rich!
I'm going to work.
Get up and clean the table.
Don't spend all day dozing off!
Ahh... Leave it there!
Looks like Nayoung is not feeling well.
Are you really bent on driving me mad?
I even sent you to college in your sister's place.
What's there to complain about?
Aigoo, Boss... Let's just go, we have a ton of work to do.
Here you go, coffee with two spoons of sugar.
She only cares about herself.
Boss.
That friend of yours you always talk about.
He was all over the newspaper.
Looks like he's one of the richest tycoons in the country?!
And what does that have to do with me?
I mean...
You said you even promised each other you'd get Jeongsuk and his son married?
Can't people even speak?
He just said that because he thought he owed me something.
Boss, where are you going?
Ajeosshi, drive faster, will you?
It's urgent.
Aigoo... If the car starts rattling, the baby will push harder?!
Ajeosshi...
Just relax.
If you ever end up giving birth inside here,
that brat from the taxi company will never leave me in peace.
Nayoung!
Nayoung...
Eonni.
Looks like I'm about to give birth.
But you should be weeks away from that?!
I said I think it's time!
Let's go in.
Not there.
Not where you work.
But it's urgent.
If people start spreading rumors, I'm dead.
Somewhere else Dad doesn't know about, Eonni...
Wait just a moment.
I'll go get changed.
Ajeosshi, drive faster.
My sister is going to die!
Nayoung. Get a hold of yourself.
You must stay awake.
Nayoung!
Open your eyes!
Nayoung!
I think she should be moved to a bigger hospital.
Can't you do it here?
It might be premature,
but natural delivery is still too dangerous.
I think we'll have to go with a Caesarean.
No way...
No.
- No way... - Nayoung.
You can't cut me up.
How can I get married with a scar on my belly?
If we don't get the child out via a Caesarean,
it could even die.
Then just kill it, Doctor.
This child cannot be born.
I don't even know who the father is, what would be the point?
Just do it.
Both the child and me, kill the both of us, Doctor...
Nayoung!
Nayoung...
I'm here.
The baby?
What happened to the baby?
Is it dead or alive?
Dead.
You almost risked death as well.
It's dead?
Nayoung...
A woman's destiny depends on who she marries.
As if you didn't know your father.
You know what he's capable of, to get what he wants.
I'll send your future wife to the States with you.
Live there.
Dad...
Don't you remember, whale meat?
I'm not Jeongsuk, I'm her sister Nayoung.
Am I boring you?
Don't you worry, Jungu Oppa.
They won't take Jeongsuk away from you.
Are you naive or just stupid?
It's over if you don't stop her.
Are you so happy to see her get ruined?
I'm asking if you ever had any feelings for me!
Stop it... I'll scream!
I... I'm sorry...
I'll take responsibility!
So!
Don't even try to lay a finger on her.
It all depends on who you get married with.
