29:27 [Sigh]
29:29 Wait a minute.
29:30 Isn't it easier for you to make a deal if you run again?
29:34 What do you think?
29:35 It's possible.
29:37 But who will train me?
29:39 My father is angry with me.
29:40 Let's get someone else to train you.
29:43 And then, if you win again,
29:46 we will give your father the medal that you will win.
29:50 Right?
29:51 That's possible.
29:53 Okay.
29:56 Your father is really good.
29:58 He's really good.
30:00 Your father is really good.
30:03 Are you still not going to forgive your son?
30:08 He wants to leave.
30:10 He will not listen to me.
30:11 I heard that he is training again.
30:15 That's good.
30:16 He can prove that even if I'm not there,
30:18 he can still run.
30:19 But your son is having a hard time.
30:24 He's not used to other coaches.
30:26 I'm worried.
30:29 It's not enough.
30:35 We need to speed up our training.
30:37 We're not even halfway to your father's speed.
30:40 Okay.
30:42 I'll repeat it.
30:43 I'll rest.
30:44 Okay.
30:46 Maybe you can help him.
30:52 I thought he would be able to free me
30:54 because he's having a hard time.
30:56 Now you're worried.
30:58 You're really stubborn.
31:01 He learned to stand on his own two feet.

31:09 [Music]
31:37 [Music]
31:39 [Singing]
32:01 [Singing]
32:03 Blow.
32:16 Can you do it?
32:18 Mommy did it.
32:22 Okay, kids.
32:23 After you eat, let's start the games.
32:29 Let's eat.
32:30 You guys can eat there.
32:32 Just eat.
32:34 Just eat.
32:39 There.
32:43 I'm happy.
32:46 Mom,
32:51 do you think dad still has a bad feeling about me?
32:56 He won't be able to get over you.
32:59 Don't worry.
33:01 I'll talk to him when I get home.
33:03 But you know what?
33:05 He's really attached to his grandchild, Stephanie.
33:10 I miss him too.
33:12 But when I think about the bad feelings I gave him,
33:16 I get scared.
33:18 My dear,
33:20 your father loves you.
33:22 He's just having a bad feeling about you.
33:24 But,
33:25 but no parent can stand their own child.
33:29 Well,
33:32 Mom, I want to see dad.
33:35 [Music]
33:39 I'm scared.
33:51 You don't have to be scared.
33:53 I'm not scared.
33:54 Dad,
34:11 Dad, I hope you can forgive me.
34:14 I know I hurt you.
34:18 But please forgive me.
34:20 I love you so much.
34:22 [Music]
34:24 Forgive me too, son.
34:28 [Music]
34:31 I'm sorry.
34:50 [Music]
34:52 Grandpa.
35:02 [Music]
35:06 Dad still can't love his child.
35:15 That's why Lydia is with them again.
35:18 She also let Lydia go back to running.
35:21 She was well prepared for a competition.
35:26 And this time,
35:28 her guide was her dad.
35:31 In Lydia's return to the competition,
35:35 she proved that everything won't be easy.
35:38 Especially when critics judge her running
35:43 after a few years of weakness.
35:47 She's old.
35:48 She has no future.
35:50 These are the women who joined Lydia
35:53 in her return to the competition
35:56 as the fastest-growing woman in Asia.
36:00 [Music]
36:04 [Music]
36:06 [Music]
36:34 Your father's patience is really good.
36:37 Yes.
36:38 You know, it hurts my body,
36:40 but I feel good.
36:42 Because my father is not mad at me.
36:45 You know, I'm happy for you.
36:49 I'm more than happy.
36:51 Think, I can have a husband who is understanding, kind,
36:54 and good at reading.
36:56 Go ahead, you can do it.
36:57 You know me.
36:59 But everything won't be easy for Lydia.
37:03 A few weeks before the competition,
37:06 it was reported that she was not in a fighting condition
37:09 because of her foot injury.
37:12 Lydia, is it true that you were not able to run
37:14 in the next semester?
37:16 A commissioner and a doctor said
37:20 that you can't run anymore.
37:22 Is that true?
37:23 Actually,
37:24 Wait, wait.
37:26 Who's going to accept that news?
37:28 It's too early to judge
37:30 whether you can run or not.
37:32 But if it's true,
37:33 even if Lydia can't run,
37:35 what are you going to do?
37:37 Are you going to force her?
37:38 Let's just wait for the day of the competition.
37:45 My daughter will run.
37:46 And no one can stop her from running
37:48 no matter what happens.
37:51 Let's go.
37:53 You can do it, my child.
37:56 I'm okay.
37:57 I'm in good condition, right?
37:59 That's what I want.
38:01 Have confidence in yourself.
38:02 I owe you all of this.
38:04 I love you, father.
38:06 And I'm giving you my support.
38:09 As long as you're determined,
38:12 you'll win.
38:14 As long as I know that you're behind me,
38:18 I won't lose.
38:19 I know I'm always the winner.
38:21 Forever.
38:23 You're right.
38:24 Let's go.

39:13 Lidia became the champion again
39:18 under the guidance of her father.
39:21 She proved that their tandem was still effective.
39:25 She was able to follow the next victory
39:29 and after breaking her own track records,
39:33 Lidia continued to retire.
39:35 But this is where the next obstacle in her life came.
39:40 Stephanie, call your dad.
39:47 Stephanie, call your dad.
39:49 Call your mom.
39:50 Your sister is sick.
39:51 Okay, mommy.
39:52 Do you need me?
39:55 Call your dad.
39:56 Call your dad.
39:58 [crying]
40:00 Stephanie!
40:02 Your sister is crying!
40:04 Call your dad, now!
40:06 Hello, daddy.
40:09 Jonathan is sick.
40:12 [crying]
40:17 Jonathan was first diagnosed with bronchopneumonia.
40:20 But a few days later,
40:22 it was confirmed that the child was suffering from raptured appendicitis.
40:27 He immediately underwent surgery.
40:30 But it wasn't easy.
40:32 The first surgery was complicated
40:35 and Lidia's heart almost broke
40:38 when she saw the condition of her child
40:42 after the second surgery.
40:46 I feel sorry for her.
40:47 Please do everything you can.
40:50 I'm sorry, sir.
40:51 This is a second operation.
40:53 Her body is very fragile.
40:55 I don't know what will happen.
41:00 But for now,
41:05 I'll leave you and I have a patient on the other side.
41:08 [music]
41:09 Son,
41:17 Jonathan,
41:19 I'm sorry.
41:22 Don't leave me.
41:24 I can't take it anymore if you leave me.
41:29 Son.
41:32 Jai,
41:34 be strong.
41:37 Don't leave me.
41:41 Son,
41:44 please don't leave me.
41:48 I can't take it anymore if you leave me.

42:38 With the help of the children of Paul and Lydia,
42:42 Jonathan's operation was successful.
42:46 In the absence of worry,
42:48 they almost lost all their attention.
42:53 [music]
42:55 God really knows.
42:58 He didn't let Jonathan leave us.
43:01 Mom, I can't forgive myself if something happens to our son.
43:06 Mom, please let me go to my toys.
43:12 What's wrong with you?
43:14 You see that Mommy and Grandma are talking.
43:16 Mommy is a good girl.
43:18 Don't be mean to her.
43:20 Mom, please let me go there.
43:23 Oh, my.
43:25 Do you love me, Mommy?
43:29 [laughing]
43:32 [laughing]
43:33 This is so funny.
43:36 Of course, Mommy loves you.
43:39 That's why I'm always angry with you because you're always with your toys.
43:45 But because I love Mommy,
43:48 I'll let you go there.
43:50 I'll take you there.
43:52 Yay! My Mommy is so kind.
43:55 Oh, my. This kid is so smart.
43:59 Mom, please let Jonathan go.
44:02 I'll cook.
44:04 I'll just bring the food.
44:06 I'll take care of it.
44:08 [music]
44:28 [music]
44:29 Don't turn around too much.
44:39 Yes, Mommy. Thank you.
44:42 I love you, Mommy.
44:44 Oh, my. My son is so naughty.
44:46 I love you, too. Stay here.
44:48 Mommy will just cook.
44:50 [music]
44:53 [music]
44:54 Don't fight. Just play.
45:03 Yes, Ma'am.

49:56 I remember John Michael.
49:58 The day he died.
50:02 He was a gentle child who was always ready to smile and hug everyone.
50:11 At the same time, he had a dream of becoming an athlete just like his mother.
50:23 During the past few nights,
50:26 I've been thinking about a lot of questions that I can't answer.
50:35 Why did God allow me to go through this kind of trial?
50:42 But,
50:48 I can see and feel the love and trial from all of you.
50:53 I can see and feel that God is with us in our trials.
51:03 Now,
51:07 I forgive that not only my son was able to go through this,
51:16 but also myself.
51:18 Now,
51:22 I'm letting God end my life.
51:27 Now and forever.
