(Episode 57)
Tae Poong!
You are Tae Poong, aren't you?
You're Tae Poong, right?
No, sir. I am not.
What do you mean? You're Tae Poong.
Don't you remember me?
Sir, I've never seen you before.
And my name is Yu Min Hyuk.
Yu Min Hyuk?
Are you sure you're not Tae Poong?
Dad!
What brings you here?
You must be Ms. Han's father.
I think he's mistaking me for someone else.
What mistake?
You look exactly like Tae Poong.
You're Tae Poong.
Dad, he's the chief legal officer of our company.
He's not Tae Poong.
He's not?
But how can he look so much like him?
Let's get out and talk. I'm sorry, Chief Yu.
- But... - Let's go.
But he's Tae Poong.
I'm sure he is.
So you're saying he's really not Tae Poong?
No, he's not.
But how do they resemble each other so much?
I was also surprised when I first saw him.
But he wasn't Tae Poong.
Good Lord.
The kindergarten teacher said...
he even came by to be a one-day father.
If he's not Tae Poong,
why would he do such a thing?
He just came to help out...
to teach the kids about what adults do for a living.
My gosh.
You said you even went to the rehab center and confirmed his death.
You told me so yourself. That Tae Poong is dead.
I did.
I went to the rehab center and confirmed it.
Yes. So please resolve your misunderstanding now.
Hey, Yu Jung. How did it go?
I talked to him well. You don't need to worry.
I never imagined he'd actually come by.
How did he find out?
It turns out Dong Ho recognized you from an old photo.
So my dad found out about the one-day father,
and he must have asked the kindergarten...
before coming to the company.
He's really startled, isn't he?
I feel sorry for not being able to tell him the truth.
It's fine. You can't show who you are yet.
My father will understand.
Okay.
How could someone...
look so much like him?
Come in.
You're Ms. Han's father. What brings you here?
Have a seat first.
Are you...
really not Lee Tae Poong?
I must resemble him a lot.
Ms. Han asked me the same thing when she first saw me.
But I heard from Yu Jung...
that Mr. Lee Tae Poong hurt his head when he was little.
So he was a bit different from a normal adult.
Yes. Well,
it's true.
He must have been really important to Ms. Han's family...
seeing that she and her father are both coming to see me.
Yes, he's someone I really miss and want to find.
I'm sorry that I'm not him.
But...
I wish you'd stop coming to my office...
mistaking me for him.
I apologize.
I've caused enough inconvenience.
- Thank you for your time. - Yes, thank you as well.
- Father. - Yes.
How was the interview?
Well, I'm not sure if I've done it well.
I'm sure you did fine.
You're perfect in every way.
My daughter-in-law tends to flatter me a lot, Chief Yu.
But what is Chief Yu doing here?
I seemed nervous preparing for the interview.
He wanted to come along as he was worried about me.
It went well thanks to him.
I see.
Yu Ra, if you haven't had lunch, why don't you join me?
- I'd love that, Father. - Good.
Chief Yu, please tell the restaurant we booked that we have one more.
Yes, sir.
So is Chief Yu also having lunch with us?
Why? Are you uncomfortable with that?
No, there's no reason to be uncomfortable.
Good. He was the one who asked me...
to invite you for lunch.
I see.
Okay.
- Chairman Cha, they're ready. - Sure.
- Let's go, Father. - All right.
It must be winter soon. They're selling fish-shaped buns already.
Is it winter already?
I used to eat a lot of those when I was a kid.
Would you like to try one for a change?
We should have lunch soon, but shall we?
Then I'll go and buy some.
Hello, I'll order some fish-shaped buns.
Sure, how many would you like?
What are you doing here?
Father.
What's the matter? Aren't you getting in?
No, I'm afraid I have an urgent meeting.
I'll have to go back to work.
Is that so?
Do you want a ride back to your office?
No, you should have lunch.
I'll see you at home later, Father.
Okay.
- Don't skip lunch. - I won't.
- Let's go, Chief Yu. - Yes, sir.
What do you think you're doing here?
I told you to leave Seoul, didn't I?
You see, I had a reason to...
A reason?
What reason?
My wife spent all the money you gave me to go to the hospital.
So I couldn't leave.
What?
So?
Are you threatening me to pay you more?
No.
It's not that. Ma'am.
What the heck are you doing here...
when you're supposed to be a dentist in the US?
If you were paid, you should be worth the money.
Get out of my sight now!
Get out of my sight.
If I see you again, I won't sit still.
May I have a word with you?
You were asked to act like Mrs. Han's father by her, right?
I know everything already.
What did Mrs. Han ask you...
to say about her and her parents?
Why should I tell you that?
I don't know who you are.
Take this.
What's this?
Consider it my apology on her behalf.
Nothing bad will happen to you because of this.
What did Mrs. Han ask you to say?
She asked me to pretend like a dentist in America...
who's been living there for more than ten years...
and say she's an only child who got her master's degree...
in journalism at Stanford University.
Is that it?
Yes.
You can live outside of Seoul with the money I gave you.
Get out of Seoul...
and be out of touch with Mrs. Han.
It's me.
How did it go?
Is he leaving?
Yes. I thought he'd hold out,
but he easily agreed to leave Seoul.
Okay.
Make sure to tell him...
things will get uglier for him than today if he shows up again.
What a deep sigh.
You're shooting the commercial soon.
What if your forehead gets wrinkles?
- Uncle. - Yes?
Did Ye Jin's mother say anything...
after I left that day?
No.
I was so frightened I couldn't afford to ask anything.
This is so hopeless.
By the way, I had no idea...
you were seeing Ye Jin.
Have you been crying...
and having your heart broken because of her?
Yes.
Uncle, I can't live without Ye Jin.
So can you help me out?
You were a legendary dating master in Waikiki.
I do know an amazing move...
that can never fail.
What's that?
Come on.
Here's a delivery.
Is Mrs. Yoon Su Hee here?
Yes. That's me.
Oh, my.
Would you sign here, please?
- Here? - Yes.
Done.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Su Hee, who sent this to you?
I don't know.
Here's a letter.
"Mrs. Yoon. These beautiful flowers reminded me of you."
"No flower can be more beautiful than you, though."
"With love, Yu Myung."
Is that from Yu Myung?
How did he know she loves flowers?
He's smart.
He's considerate with Su Hee.
Imagine how considerate he would be with Ye Jin.
I'm not saying this because he's my nephew.
He's really sweet.
This kind of guy is rare these days.
Su Hee, where should I put these flowers?
It's up to you.
Is the floral gift not working?
It won't be easy.
I'm so busy these days preparing year-end parties.
I'm figuring out a lot of things including the place and food...
as the leader of my school reunion.
Right.
Prosecutor Jang, you went to Stanford University.
You remembered that.
You do have good memory.
There are only two people I know who went there.
Who went there besides me?
It's Anchor Han Yu Ra.
Really?
Did Anchor Han get a master's degree at Stanford University?
Why didn't I know that?
I could've invited her to the reunion if I had known.
It's not too late yet.
What's all this, Hwa Yeon?
My university invited me to its year-end party.
Since you do a lot of activities,
you're invited to a lot of gatherings.
So are you going?
I might not make it...
because it's on the same day as an event at my foundation.
Do you have plans for the end of the year?
Me?
Well, I might have some plans.
Don't you spend the year-end with your lover?
Mi Ri, do you have good news?
Well, I might hear good news.
Doesn't your school have a reunion, Yu Ra?
I have a busy schedule around the end of the year,
so I don't really get to go to gatherings.
Also, I feel a little awkward at gatherings.
But it'd be nice to make some connections too.
Okay. I'll go if I have time.
Hello?
Yes. This is Han Yu Ra. Who is this?
A reunion?
Excuse me.
Let me take this call.
Stanford Graduate School Alumni Night?
I heard you're an alumna.
Would you host the reunion?
I'm sorry,
but I have a busy schedule around the end of the year.
I'll get back to you if I get a chance later.
Okay.
Alumni Night?
It's better not to go there in case they find out it's a lie.
How come I got this call out of the blue?
I've never gotten this call before.
Prosecutor Jang, have you talked to Mrs. Han?
Yes.
She can't make it because of her busy schedule.
Is that so?
Then you have no choice.
After the end of the year,
let's have a party with our friends from the training center.
Bye.
Yu Jung left early this morning?
She had something urgent to take care of at work,
so she left early.
Yu Myung,
your shoot is next week, right?
Once the commercial airs, you'll become a star.
No. I'm just shooting one commercial.
That's how they start.
By the way, Yu Myung,
take care of your skin.
Your skin looks so dry.
Honey, give me some money...
to take him to a dermatologist.
Honey?
Yes?
What? Me?
What are you thinking about so hard?
Did you ignore me to avoid giving me money?
What are you talking about?
Well, look.
I have glowing skin just like Mom.
I'd rather remove the scar I have here.
What scar?
I have a huge scar on my shoulder.
I'll have to do a lot of shooting where I have to remove my top...
such as swimsuit commercials.
The scar on my shoulder wouldn't look too nice.
That's true. That scar you had was too big.
But how did he get hurt?
Don't even mention it.
You have no idea what a scare I had on that day.
He rolled off the stairs while playing,
and Yu Myung's shoulder was ripped and Tae Poong hurt his forehead.
It was such chaos.
I think I've politely mentioned...
that I don't feel comfortable having you come see me.
You see,
could I just check one thing?
What are you referring to?
Could I...
take a look at your forehead?
My forehead?
If you are the person I know,
you must have a scar on your forehead.
I'll just leave after checking that.
You're done looking, right?
Hold on.
Have you ever rolled off the stairs as a kid...
and got a scar on your forehead?
I never did.
If you're done checking, please leave now.
My goodness.
That's right. There's no way he is Tae Poong.
Tae Poong is already dead.
That's right.
I was mistaken as he looked too similar.
Dad came again?
Yes.
He asked me to show him a scar I got as a kid.
A scar?
That's true. You had a scar.
And? Did Dad see it?
No.
I got it removed in the US, so I don't have it anymore.
I see.
Then was Dad convinced that you weren't Tae Poong?
Yes. He seemed to have given up.
I don't think he'll come back.
- Wait. - Yes?
What are you doing here?
Cleaning.
I'm cleaning instead of you.
I'll do it.
I don't think you ever had a drop of water...
on those tiny hands of yours. I'll do it.
Not at all.
Your wrist is injured. I'll do it.
This is fine. I'm telling you it's all good now.
It's okay. Let me do it.
- Geez, give it to me. - Oh, my gosh!
- Oh, my. - No.
Well...
Would you like a cup of coffee?
Yes?
I like instant coffee now.
Oh, I see.
This is the one you like.
Isn't this it?
You were making fun of it saying it was cat poop.
When did you have this prepared?
You must've bought it for me.
Well...
Why is it so hot here?
Ms. Han Yu Jung,
congratulations on being selected as DL's best employee.
Please continue to show good work.
Thank you.
Congratulations, Ms. Han. Let's give her a hand!
- Chief Baek. - Yes, sir.
This is for the entire sales and marketing team.
It's a special bonus as you showed great performances and results...
during the second half of the year.
Thanks for your work, everyone.
- Thank you, sir! - We'll do our best!
And Ms. Han, let's have a meal in the coming days.
Okay.
Let's go.
I'm so happy for you!
Congratulations on being chosen as the best employee, Yu Jung.
I'm so jealous of you!
Thank you. You can do the same, Ye Jin. You're a great worker.
But is Yu Jung's different from ours?
It must be, right?
I'm sure it is.
Jin Woo, why would you ask such a thing?
You will also be chosen as the best employee later.
I mean,
I was just asking her to treat us to a nice meal!
Of course, I will.
What should I get?
Ms. Han the best employee.
Seo Jun.
How do you feel?
You've been recognized and awarded...
for something you wanted to do.
How do I feel?
It feels nice.
But I'm not sure if it's okay I get this.
Why?
I submitted a letter of resignation.
Yu Jung,
do you really have to quit?
Let's not talk about this anymore.
You are more than qualified to be chosen as the best employee.
You are still working...
and you are considered as our employee until the moment you quit.
You were recognized as you did well.
Of course, you should get it.
But still...
Should we have a meal today to celebrate it?
I have to go home early today, so let's take a rain check.
Okay.
What a shame.
Yu Ra,
so you won't come to the school reunion.
I'll force you to go, then.
Yu Ra, this is Yu Min Hyuk.
What is it?
I wanted to apologize to you.
I misunderstood you.
Misunderstood?
The wedding photo.
I'm sorry.
I want to treat you for dinner as a way to apologize.
Would that be okay?
Dinner? That's fine.
And I also have something important to tell you about Seo Jun.
About Seo Jun?
What is it?
I'll tell you in person.
Okay.
Come in.
Min Hyuk, do you have plans this evening?
Let's go eat dinner.
I'm meeting up with Yu Ra.
With Yu Ra? Why?
I don't think I know much about Yu Ra.
I'm planning to talk to her.
Whether I find a reason or convince her, I need to know more about her.
Is that so?
Then Min Hyuk,
I'll go with you too.
What?
I didn't expect Seo Jun to come either.
I was going to have dinner with Min Hyuk,
but he told me he had plans with you.
I see.
Hello?
Yes. Now?
Okay, I got it.
I'm sorry, Yu Ra,
but I got a call from a friend after making plans with you.
He asks me if he can come see you.
He's around. Would that be okay?
Why would your friend want to meet Yu Ra?
He's someone who got a master's degree from Stanford.
He has a favor to ask her regarding the reunion.
No, I'm not comfortable with that.
Hey, you are here.
He's my friend.
Hello. I'm Jang Sung Cheol.
Hello. I'm Cha Seo Jun.
Hello.
We talked over the phone yesterday.
I'm sorry?
I didn't know you attended graduate school at Stanford.
We studied around the same time.
But I feel like I never saw you before.
Is that so?
Let me quickly go to the bathroom.
- You guys go on and chat. - Okay.
Yu Ra must be in trouble by now.
Oh, gosh.
You are such a hilarious person.
What?
You must know that too, Sung Cheol.
There was this legend at our school.
A legend?
Yes, Seo Jun. There was a legend which said that if you studied...
by the windows in the library, you'd pass all the classes.
That's true!
You know that legend.
That's why it was really competitive to get that seat.
Have you ever gotten a seat there, Sung Cheol?
No. There were so many people every time I went,
so I never had a chance. What about you?
I sat there maybe once.
Wasn't there any legend like that at your school?
We didn't have that.
My gosh.
But Yu Ra,
can't you make it to the reunion?
It'd be perfect if you came to host the meeting.
I have work on that day.
And I don't feel comfortable going somewhere crowded.
I see.
How about you take this chance to join our group, then?
Your group?
I'm not into such things.
It's just a small gathering.
People who went to school in the US get together...
to exchange information or make connections.
Do you know Shin Yeon Woo? His son is there too.
There's also the daughter from K-group.
You'd be more than qualified to join our group.
Is that right?
You simply have to submit your college certificate.
It's a formal procedure, but we still need to verify things.
I see.
That sounds fun.
Wasn't it boring for you as we mostly talked about us?
Not really.
You must be tired. You can take a shower first.
Such powerful people are in the group?
It would be helpful to know them.
So they need my college certificate.
I'll have to contact the broker...
who made it for me last time.
Yu Ra is much more meticulous than I thought.
When did she study so much about her fake university?
She did seem to be interested in that gathering, though.
She'll surely look for a broker to make a certificate.
I'll have to find them before Yu Ra does.
Yes, Yu Jung. I just got home.
Right. I heard you were selected as the best employee.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
Right. You haven't forgotten...
about going to the alpaca park on the weekend with Min Woo, right?
Of course not. It's a promise I made with you.
No wonder you are father and son.
Both love alpacas so much.
Yes. I'll see you at work tomorrow, Tae Poong.
Tae Poong?
What did you just say now?
Well,
Dad, that's not it.
Don't you dare lie to me. I heard it all.
That Yu Min Hyuk is...
Tae Poong, isn't he?
(A Man in a Veil)
Seo Jun, I'm meeting up with Yu Jung now.
Yu Ra, why would you meet with Yu Jung?
You were just talking about misunderstanding and apologizing.
You must've not gotten a grasp of the situation.
What happened?
How did he get away?
So you said you were dating, right? Who is the girl?
Do you know who it is, Yu Jung?
Let me tell you a funny story, then.
I'll talk to Yu Ra so that she can repent her fault.
Tell the truth and come back to where you used to be!
Where I used to be? You want me to go back to that ditch?
Are you crazy? Do you want to see me die?
