[Bad Memory Eraser]

[We followed the production guidelines
when filming child actors and animals.]

No, no!

Whatever you do, you are caught
in self-pity and feelings of inferiority

since you'll never be able to
escape from past memories

until you die.

Hey, are you out of your mind?

Why are you talking about injuries to him?

Just do your own job well.

And yet you live off your
younger brother shamelessly.

Mom!

Mom, take me too!

No.

Goon!

Goon.

Goon, are you okay?

[Episode 15, Here & Now]

This, here.

Thank you.

I heard about it from Shin

that you tried to protect Goon till the end.

But I ultimately couldn't protect him.

It's not your fault.

Before coming here,

I stopped by the police station
and saw the accident video.

You heard it from Shin, right?

That my two sons are living such unhappy lives.

I had no idea.

It's my fault for not taking care of my sons.

My son, Goon.

Can he get better?

The fact that we are by his side.

I'm not sure if that will be of help.

He needs

the family's support more than anyone else.

The origin of his trauma
was a wrist injury, but

the trauma from being hurt and abandoned
by the family was the most severe.

There was no family to lean on
when times were the hardest.

All he has with us are bad memories, but how…

You can fill his bad memories
about family with good ones.

Will that make the memories
of the past disappear?

They won't disappear.

But,

the goal is to increase the importance
of current memories over past ones.

Every day, you lock yourself in that
gloomy room, drinking away.

Do you know that our family is
suffocating because of you?

What kind of way is that
to talk to your brother?

What have you done so well?

You're both the same.

Ah, Mom, he's…

Oh my.

I can't believe this is why I gave birth

to you guys 27, 28 years ago.

Why do you talk like that again?

I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have been born.

If I weren't here, everyone
would have been relieved.

I should just disappear.

If I don't want to see this state
of affairs, I should leave home.

No, I'll leave.

Everyone, come here and sit down.

What are you doing right now?

Why are you making a fuss, taking
down all the trophies and photos?

Come here, and sit down now!

Come.

Up until now, I…

For the peace of the family,

I've been watching over, stepping down
from being the head of the household,

but it can't be like this anymore.

Starting today,

anyone who disturbs the peace
of our home will not be forgiven.

Your dad is right.

Grown-ups are still fighting each other.

The head of the family is talking!

Starting today, our family will be reborn.

In that sense,

let's create good memories as a family,

and take a new family photo.

From today on, there is no past.

There is only the present.

Now, everyone, put this on.

[Goon's mom]

[Goon's younger brother]

[Lovely me]

[Goon's dad]

Two, three.

One more favor, please. Can
you take a picture of our backs?

Hey, turn around.

- One, two, three.
- Our backs.

[My baby, our eldest son, I love you, me too]
Turn around so your faces show too.

- Goon, look back.
- Faces.

One, two, three.

Hey, it's really nice, right?

It's family's first-ever unity event.
It's just so heartwarming.

Even so, a picnic in
the dead of winter is a bit…

No, all their birthdays are in winter.

And we only loved spring.

Let's eat up.

Let's eat up. Come on, eat up.

Wow, that looks delicious.

- Well, wow, that looks delicious.
- Ah, it's cold.

- Cola.
- Hey, don't open it, don't open it.

What's the occasion?

No dust got in, right? Alright, it's fine.

Huh, what's this?

Ah, it startled me.

Now, let's eat again.

Oh dear, are you okay?

Let's pull out!

Oh dear.

Do you want to take a taxi?

- Hey.
- He's coming.

Surprise!

One, two, three.

- Happy birthday.
- Happy birthday to you.

No, again, again! One, two, three.

- Happy birthday.
- Happy birthday.

Happy birthday.

Happy birthday to…

Why is the mood like this?

- Hey.
- Yes?

You guys just go.

- Go?
- Do we have to go?

- What should we do about this?
- This…

How… Should we clean it up?

- Have some cake.
- Oh, cake.

It's delicious.

Leave it behind.

I'm Kyung Ju Yeon.

The diffuser has a calming
effect with its lavender scent.

It soothes the mind.

Cape jasmine stabilizes the brain,

and helps with a good night's sleep.

Yellow curtains help alleviate
a lack of motivation.

Blue bedding reduces stress levels.

Green rugs relieve physical and mental
fatigue and generate positive energy.

They aid emotional balance
and provide mental comfort.

I hope it's been of some help.

And,

I'm sorry.

♫ The silent streets are filled ♫

♫ With countless thoughts
and the wounds inside them ♫

♫ You light a small light in a corner ♫

♫ Of my heart that I had ignored ♫

♫ Even if that unreachable dream ♫

♫ Turns away from me and becomes more blurred ♫

♫ I will walk towards that day ♫

I miss pretty auntie.

[My Family]

I can go to Italy and meet her.

Jeez.

Oh my, excuse me.

Have you by any chance not seen Sae Yan today?

You ask me every time. I said she hadn't come.

If you happen to see our Sae Yan,
please be sure to let me know.

Alright.

Come in.

Are those foreigners looking for Sae Yan?

How can there be absolutely no news like this?

It seems she is with her father in Seoul.

I wonder where she's hiding.

I shouldn't have sent her away coldly.

Is she upset with me? And is
that why there's no contact?

Should we… really not report it to the police?

No, don't report it to the police.

If the police find him.

Sae Yan will find out, right?

She'll find that her father
has a criminal record.

I don't want her to know that
her father is such a person.

I'm just worried that if her father harms her.

She's his daughter, surely not.

Oh, right.

Should I tell honestly to Ju Yeon?

Since they are close, they might
contact each other separately.

What about my daughter?

What about the pain my daughter will endure?

Do you mean that it's not okay for Sae Yan
to be hurt, but it's okay for Ju Yeon?

If you're going to say that,
don't ever come here again.

Ah, that…

It seems like I lost my reason
thinking too much about Sae Yan.

Sorry. I'm sorry.

Resignation letter?

What do you mean by this?

If someone has to resign, it should
be me. But why are you quitting?

It was me who persuaded you
to cover up the side effects.

Since it all started with my thesis,
I should take responsibility.

The one who used the subject was
Te O, but it was not you, right?

Look.

Unlike mouse number 109,

there's no damage to the brain fuse,
and all brain circuits are normal.

It's just that everything has
returned to the way it was before.

What about the wounds
the test subjects received?

What about the shock and
pain of feeling betrayed?

Just like he said,

I turned his good memories

of a first love into bad memories.

And,

I also directly referred myself to
the ethics committee for disciplinary review.

Then I'll be the one to take that discipline.

I can't block my junior's
future just to save myself.

Please promise to stay at
the hospital until the end

and take responsibility for the subject.

I can't trust Senior Te O.
Please take care of it.

Hey, Kyung Ju Yeon.

You are really…

A contract termination agreement?

Could you wait just a little longer?

He is momentarily anxious, so…

There's no more to say.

Stamp your seal on the contract
termination agreement. Don't drag it out.

I will continue as Si On's team doctor as well.

I'll at least manage to ensure there's
no problem with the rehabilitation.

If you could be understanding about
the CEO's vacancy for just a while.

CEO also agreed with it.

Shin's mother.

You said I'm your role model, right?

This is my sons' scrapbook.

For 20 years,

I collected articles about their
victories while taking care of them.

Oh my, this many?

That's really impressive.

Every time I collected a page,

it felt like my own medal of honor.

Because I was with them 24 hours a day

as their training coach, as a rehabilitation
therapist, and as a nutritionist.

I'm trying to transfer her company
to make Si On like this as well.

Please understand.

Shin's mother.

I realized I was never actually
a mother to my two sons.

Don't make the same
mistakes I did, Si On's mom.

Excuse me, Si On's mother.

Hey, Shin, Lee Shin.

If the termination agreement has been sent,
that is enough, but why call a busy person here?

It's you, right? You're the one who
spread the video of our Shin, right?

Oh my!

Don't come close. You have bad breath!

And this is a custom-fit suit!

Well, I just stated facts. Did I
commit forgery or something?

Thanks to you, CEO Hong, the ad
agency cut ties with us first,

and we don't even have
to pay the penalty, right?

Yeah, I'm the one who tipped them off.

It's kind of like a deposit.

Let's say you make a comeback after a year.

How would I know where you would go to?

You have to contract with
a big agency like ours

to completely clean up your negative
image, and rehabilitate your career.

There he comes.

Since you'll obviously join that rookie
agency just because the CEO is your family,

I need to half-ruin it, so you'll understand
how tough this industry really is, right?

Oops.

I heard that even Cha Si On terminated
her contract with your agency.

Are you shutting down now?

Look at you. You've totally
turned into a loser.

A loser, Lee Goon.

A loser? You're calling my son a loser?

Stop grabbing this!

CEO Hong!

I made Shin to contract with your
agency for 10 years out of loyalty.

But what? What did you dare say to my sons?

Jeez.

Shin's, uh… No, ma'am!

In this business, once a contract is broken,
loyalty and everything else get trampled on,

tossed aside, and you're left
hanging. That's just how it works.

Are you talking about loyalty without
realizing how scary the big agencies are?

I'm a former lawyer!

You know what a lawyer is, right?

Judges, prosecutors! They're all my friends.
I have many friends in the court.

You know a judge? Don't laugh!

I mean…

How did Si On's mother get here…

This is all a misunderstanding.

It's like a situation play…

If Player Lee Shin hadn't called,
I would have been fooled too.

It's collaboration with Ju Yeon.

I'll wait only while my daughter
is in rehabilitation.

Oh my, this contract…

No, I…

It's my first time drinking with my sons.

I never let you drink alcohol
since you are athletes.

I've drunk without you guys knowing, though.

It's my first time seeing Mom drink.

I'm a heavy drinker.

Shall I tell you a funny story?

When there was an accident 15 years ago,

when Goon injured his
wrist trying to save Shin.

Do you know what I was thinking?

I thought it would be better Shin got hurt.

I thought it would be better if Shin's
wrist was broken, not athletic Goon.

I'm cruel, right?

I was originally an ace volleyball player.

I damaged my growth plate
due to poor management.

As a volleyball player, I couldn't grow tall,

so I went from the court to the warm-up zone.

But after seeing Goon's athletic ability,

my heart fluttered again.

My son could do it.

I thought I should teach
him everything generously.

We pulled out the deposit for our rental,

made your dad retire,

and even scraped together his severance pay

to send all the money for Goon's coaching
and immigration costs to Australia,

but Goon's wrist got injured.

It must have broken Goon's heart,

so I shouldn't have done that.

I thought Shin would be able
to do it, if Goon couldn't do it.

To Shin,

I placed on him all the crowns
it was originally meant for Goon.

"You must do well."

"You have to do both your
part and your brother's."

"Your brother's dreams
were hurt because of you."

"You must fulfill them all in his stead."

I brainwashed him, over and over again.

I thought that was for the sake of my two sons.

No.

On second thought,

the grades you received,

the medals, the career,

all of it felt like it was mine.

Through you, I…

I wanted to achieve the dreams I never could.

Shin.

It's time to stop.

You can stop sacrificing for the family.

You've done enough.

Goon.

Don't get hurt because of your
greedy and selfish mom.

If your life is hurt because of me,

then your life would be too pitiful.

When there is thunder and lightning,

that's when I felt it.

The embrace of the mother I longed for…

"Now I have to hold you…"

That's what I thought.

Goon.

I'm sorry to you guys.

Parents aren't born as parents, right?

She wasn't a mother from the beginning,

and I wasn't a father from the start, right?

I'm sorry for being clumsy.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry to you guys.

- Mom.
- Dad.

I love you.

Oh, what a relief! Isn't it great?

Oh my, it's so nice.

You saw CEO Hong earlier, right?

He probably has a palm
tattoo on his back by now.

What a foul temper…

Did you just say that to me?

Did I? When?

What…

Ugh, that refrigerator is really noisy.

Goon.

Do you know why your mom
brought a refrigerator into this room?

I know that.

She just wondered what you were doing.

But it was awkward to just
open the door and look,

so she made up an excuse
about taking out side dishes,

and looked inside more, right?

Lying here all together makes
me think of the old days.

Do you guys remember?

When Goon was assessed as a tennis prodigy,

we wanted to teach you well.

So we took out the lease deposit
and all crammed into a tiny room.

Ah, even though we lived in a tiny room,

we were so happy being all together.

Hey, you guys might not know,

but when you guys were sleeping next to us,

we've done everything, even slept together.

- Oh my, goodness, what nonsense.
- Jeez.

Ah, why? You said it was thrilling.

- What are you saying? I can't hear it.
- Oh my.

Is it really tinnitus? I
hear something strange.

Right? Goon, you can't hear it either, right?

Really, why are they saying things like that?

The fact is,

I wasn't sleeping that day.

- Hey!
- What?

It's a joke.

A joke?

Jeez, he makes the strangest jokes.

You're really just kidding, right?

Didn't you see something that day?

But Goon, what's gotten into
you? You are even making jokes.

What? We all just slept.

Goon knows how to make everyone laugh.

That's right, oh my.

[Brain Research Center Director Yoon Te O]
I'm Brain Research Center Director Yoon Te O.

Valuing each and every life,

with the heart of a family, Hanseom
Hospital Neurosurgery is with you.

Jeez, how can he be…

That guy's obnoxiousness just
comes through the screen.

That hypocritical punk.

It's a complete mess because
there's no Dr. Kyung here.

The things delivered to the lab. The rumor
has totally spread that they took a rebate.

But why do you call her Dr. Kyung
instead of calling her Elsa?

Actually, Dr. Kyung seems cold
because she's such a perfectionist.

But she does all the lab menial work herself.
There's no such a person like her.

Auntie!

Yes, Seung Hyun. What's wrong?

Take me to pretty auntie.

I heard that pretty auntie is still in Seoul.

Huh? What do you mean?
Sae Yan didn't go back to Italy?

Shh.

If you tell Grandma, I'll be in trouble.

Who says that? Why would you
get in trouble with Grandma?

Grandma…

Grandma chased away the pretty auntie.

What?

Grandma…

I overheard Grandma talking
with the pretty auntie's mom.

I heard that pretty auntie is
in Seoul with her dad.

She's in Seoul with her dad?

- Mom?
- Yeah?

Is Sae Yan with her biological father
now? She did not go to Italy?

Sae Yan was chased away? What's going on?

I didn't chase her away. Sae Yan's
mom came and took her.

She insisted on not going,
so I had to say a few words.

She said she's doing well. Don't worry.

But I can't reach her. She's not
someone who wouldn't contact me.

Should I keep trying to contact her?

Don't do it.

No, just… Leave Sae Yan alone.

From now on, don't ever interfere
with Sae Yan's matters.

Just listen to me.

Seung Hyun, you need to get ready
for kindergarten. Shall we go?

No…

Ah, the cell phone…

Beer.

Thank you.

Shall we toast?

Yes, sounds good, cheers!

Ah, it's good.

Well… dad. Could I possibly go out today?

I've felt confined, and a bit
bored staying in all the time.

Oh, then shall we go shopping together?

Or shall we go out to eat something delicious?

Oh? Sure!

I think I should call and meet

the community leader as well
to express my gratitude.

He helped me meet you again like this.

I appreciate that the community
leader gave me the address,

but your mom is frantically searching
for you. Let's contact him later.

The address…

I only gave the phone number
to the community leader.

Yes, this is the car service center.

Yes, is it about the tires?

Yes.

Then, if you send me
the location, I'll come to you.

Yes, understood.

I might have to step out for
a bit. Can you stay alone?

Of course! I'll just be here
drinking beer by myself.

- I'll be right back.
- Okay.

Oh, my head hurts.

Did you sleep well?

What is this place?

This is my workplace.

I was planning to give you
a surprise once the work was done.

You've already seen it all.

It was taken well, right?

This was before I met you.

I've always

been watching over you.

Wow.

The house seemed a bit
bigger when I was younger.

Wow.

This room is exactly the same.

As expected, there's no single photo of Dad.

Huh?

What is this?

Did some kid drop this while playing?

Good. Let's get started.

It's done.

Please help me find Dad.

Please.

It's addressed to me?

What's this?

Elementary school alumni reunion?

Elementary school alumni reunion, right.

Yes, hello. You're the alumni president, right?

Yes, I'm Jeon Sae Yan, who received
the invitation to the alumni reunion.

Yes, I attended that school from 2006 to 2007.

If I go to the alumni reunion, can
I meet someone who knows me?

Actually, I'm looking for someone right now.

No, no. I'm not looking for an alumnus.

I'm searching for my biological father.

Right? I should meet them in person…

Ah, yes. I understand.

Yes, in that case… Ah, I…

I found a medal.

It says '2007 Junior Tennis' on it.

Ah, is there a tennis player among the alumni?

Yes, then I'll bring it with
me. Yes, see you then.

Great.

I'll go to the alumni reunion and find
Dad and the owner of the medal.

Mister, don't you have an umbrella?

Here, use this.

Catching a cold at an old age won't
get better quickly, so please use it.

Then I'll leave the umbrella
here, and you must use it.

I'm fine, so please make sure to use it.

Ah, what should I do?

Hello, my name is Jeon Sae Yan.

Thank you.

- Hey, Park Seong Hoon!
- Huh?

[Durimoe Elementary School Alumni Reunion]

Oh, right, the medal!

I'm just living like an unemployed person.

What are you saying? I heard you
are making a lot of money, dude.

- Lee Goon?
- Hey, Goon!

Hey, over here. Here!

Lee Goon, you said you wouldn't
come, but here you are?

Well done, come over here.

Excuse me, one moment,
please. How did you get here?

Is there someone you are looking for?

No, just a moment, please.

Could you please show me your ID?

Is there someone you are looking for?

Could you please show me your ID?

Please leave.

It's done.

Hey! You!

You!

Hey!

I'm sorry.

My medal…

My medal.

- Excuse me.
- Just a moment.

Where did the person with this medal go?

She was here few minutes ago.

Oh, there!

How about it? Let's see each other again.

What, what?

And now,

let's break up!

So you've been following me?

Lee Shin…

Then who is the person who threatened Lee Shin?

I can't just let go of the guy who bullied you.

This guy retired thanks to me.

Do you like my gift for you?

Ju Yeon.

You didn't mess with Ju Yeon's family, right?

Please don't hurt them. They didn't bully me.

Everyone has been really nice
to me. Like a real family.

They have been the people I
loved the most since I was young.

Oh my, my daughter.

My daughter, you're so naive,
so it makes me worry.

Why do you think those people
are being so nice to you?

What does that mean…

Those people.

They are trying to get revenge on you.

Revenge?

Revenge for her own father.

Ju Yeon's father?

Don't worry.

They should know if they bully my daughter,
their own daughter will also be in danger.

Don't worry.

Let's just see.

It would be safest for you
to stay here for now.

Dad, dad.

Dad, dad!

Dad, please open the door.

Ah, please!

You know it's a fake pain.

Please don't call the doctor.

I can't call her anymore.

Because Dr. Kyung is going to be resigned.

I heard that she will be facing
the disciplinary review

that will soon take place at
the ethics committee alone.

That has nothing to do with me.

This experiment.

Before you, there was someone
who volunteered as a test subject.

Dr. Kyung.

Dr. Kyung also has memories she wants to erase.

Her father is Professor Kyung Sang Hyun.

He listened to all the stories
from the patients.

He was famous for his high
reputation in mental health.

But at the place where he went
for medical volunteer work,

he was brutally m*rder*d

by a patient.

And Dr. Kyung

happened to see it herself.

At just 13 years old.

Ah, dad.

- The clinic was stained with blood.
- Ju Yeon.

Her father closing his eyes in pain.

The face of that m*rder*r.

She probably wanted to erase all her memories.

She forgot all her memories
because of the shock.

But she remembers the face
of the m*rder*r clearly.

She is still suffering from the trauma.

That's why she is even
more concerned about you.

Because she's like you.

You might not let go of your feelings,

but Dr. Kyung tried to protect
you until the end, Mr. Lee.

She deceived and used me.

She experimented with
my feelings, like a lab rat.

I can never forgive her.

Somethings don't change,
even when everything else does.

It's wonderful, right?

That's right.

That's cool.

♫ You were hotter than anyone else ♫

♫ It's okay no matter ♫

♫ What kind of abyss I fall into ♫

♫ The day when it becomes dazzlingly bright ♫

♫ Even if your steps are still heavy ♫

Ah, Player Lee Shin.

Ah, I forgot to report while reading the book.

Goon seems to be getting better.

We've also made a promise to have at
least one meal a day together as a family.

He's going to the hospital,
but he also goes out.

That's fortunate.

I'm sorry for the inconvenience every day.

I'm the one who's more grateful.

Thanks to you, I've felt
this way for the first time.

I have my real family now.

But I haven't told him yet.

About what?

About his real first love.

I couldn't tell Sae Yan, either.

Because Sae Yan suddenly left.

She left?

Where did she go to?

Because Sae Yan found her dad.

She's with her dad,

but strangely, I can't get in touch with her.

There's a quick delivery for Ms. Kyung Ju Yeon.

Yes, please leave it here. Thank you.

- Thank you.
- Yes.

[Kyung Ju Yeon, Psychiatrist]

Excuse me!

Is there anybody there?

Ju Yeon's family wants to take revenge on me?

But why?

Revenge for Ju Yeon's father?

Surely not…

Alright, then I'll hang up.

Excuse me, you dropped this.

Excuse me, this…

Isn't this yours, sir?

Ju Yeon!

Ju Yeon.

Uh, Mom, just a moment.

Why aren't you coming in? What
are you doing there? Who's that?

No, nothing.

But why are you out here?

Huh? Sae Yan… I mean, I was waiting for you.

Don't be late at night.

Even though I was late every
time, nothing ever happened.

Let's get inside now.

It's okay.

Here it is.

Huh?

This.

Your last medal.

Your first love left it at the alumni reunion.

Do you remember?

I've been keeping it.

Thankfully, your first love

saved you and

found that medal.

If it's about Ms. Kyung Ju Yeon, that's enough.

No.

Your real first love.

Aren't you curious about her?

It's someone you know.

Is it Sae Yan?

Sae Yan is that girl?

Are you okay?

Open your eyes.

Are you okay?

Why have all the other memories returned

but the memory of the first
love is still the same?

Why do I still have the memory
of Kyung Ju Yeon?

♫ Drowning ♫

♫ In an ocean of grey ♫

♫ Running ♫

♫ Running backwards to you ♫

[Bad Memory Eraser]

The ethics committee will now commence.

As the person in charge of this clinical trial,

I demand the suspension of
the experiment that caused the side effects.

She's a grown adult, but I'm wondering if
that qualifies for a missing person report.

Why would Ms. Jeon Sae Yan's
father try to harm Shin?



Here, please save me.

Could that person possibly
harm their family, too?

I have to protect Ju Yeon.

I have to get out of here, no matter what.

What do you mean you
can't get in touch with her?
