(Episode 40)
(Oh Tae Yang's Wise Investor)
I heard Ji Min was born prematurely,
so Grandfather even had a paternity test done.
Imagine if he found out about her past.
Especially since her ex is Sun Holdings' Oh Tae Yang.
Grandfather may collapse from the shock.
No, right?
Not Ji Min, right?
It couldn't be. Not that. No.
- Are you having fun? - Yes.
Kwang Il found out about us.
So things are a bit messy.
Daddy.
- Here. - What?
Okay. There.
Set Byul, it's time for your nap.
No. I'm going to play some more with Daddy.
Set Byul.
Let her play.
She needs to sleep now so she'll sleep better at night.
Look.
She's sleepy, but she's fighting it.
You should rest too.
Set Byul, come with me. Let's go to your room.
Set Byul.
Play with Daddy after your nap, okay?
Okay.
Seriously.
I'm going to take a walk.
Come back before dinner.
- Okay. - Let's go.
Shi Wol.
What are you doing here?
Did you follow me?
Yes.
What if someone sees?
Is Kwang Il bothering you because of our past?
It's between us.
Don't think about it.
How could I not?
It has to do with me.
I'll make sure you're not hurt by it.
Don't worry.
Someone may see us.
I'm going to go now.
I'm home.
It can't be.
Eat up. You said you were hungry.
What's wrong? You can't eat?
I'm going to leave first.
Ms. Yoon!
Grandfather...
wants to get a paternity test for our baby.
He must suspect me because the baby came early.
That's not it.
Do you suspect me too?
No. Why would I?
You do suspect me.
That's why you want to get a paternity test.
I do not.
Even if no one in the world trusts you, I do.
I trust you, Shi Wol.
No.
Ji Min is my son.
Chairman Jang said you should keep pretty things next to you,
so I picked some although I know you hate it.
Father is so silly.
The spring flowers wilt in June,
and we have to wait some more for the late summer flowers.
It was boring because there are no flowers in July.
These lilies...
soothe the garden from its helplessness.
That's why they're called the queen of summer flowers.
It's my father's favorite.
When I was young,
he told me to grow up...
to become a woman like the lily.
His ideal woman must've been a woman who is like the lily.
I guess so.
Give them to me. I'll trim them and put them in his room.
Okay.
How pretty.
Just like Shi Wol.
Our daughter-in-law is just like a lily.
But...
I think something's wrong with Ji Min's dad.
- Really? - Yes.
I saw him in the garden just now,
and he looked very troubled.
He did?
Ji Min's mom hasn't looked well either lately.
You don't think something happened...
between them, do you?
Mr. Koo definitely didn't do it.
That means it must have been someone within the family.
There's someone else.
There is?
There's someone else outside of our family...
who knew about the development.
And who is that?
Oh Tae Yang, that twerp.
Why is he so obsessed with taking me down?
What did I do to him?
I brought your favorite lilies.
Why are you so down again?
I think...
it was Oh Tae Yang.
What?
The one who leaked information about the development.
I heard he knew.
I just don't get it.
Why is he so obsessed with taking us down?
I doubt it was him.
Nothing's for sure yet.
No. It's obviously him.
It isn't the first time.
He keeps messing us up.
There must be a reason.
A reason?
How dare you mess with...
my big chunk of stones?
You are...
determined to kill me,
aren't you?
You punk!
I...
will not die.
Yangji Group, which I,
Jang Wol Chun, built,
will never fall.
Then I'll wait and see...
how long the kingdom of Yangji...
that you built lasts.
Why would he?
Exactly.
I need to know why.
Why he is so adamant...
about destroying Yangji.
What was that?
You and Tae Yang...
were connected like that?
Isn't that amazing?
My gosh. Talk about fate.
I know.
It was a match made from above.
So why was Mr. Jung...
so negative about our getting married?
I just don't get it.
I know.
I think Mr. Jung...
is losing his touch.
Whenever I ask him things lately,
he doesn't give me a straight answer.
Right?
I'm tired. I'm going to take a nap.
Set Byul should be waking up.
I'll go check on her.
Okay. Go rest.
The person who brought Tae Yang to the orphanage...
was Duk Shil's mom.
You can't fight destiny.
Is that true?
That's right. They were brought together by fate.
Even you think so too, right?
Yes, they sure were.
Why are you still so unhappy about Tae Yang...
and Duk Shil's marriage?
I think Duk Shil and her mom...
are still hurt about that.
So tell them you were wrong...
sometime when you have a chance.
It'll make them feel better.
Why aren't you saying anything?
Okay.
I'll come by sometime soon.
Okay. Hold on. Hold on.
Don't forget...
to bring the liquor you made when you do.
Okay.
The person who brought Tae Yang to the orphanage...
was Duk Shil's mother.
What a strange twist of fate.
Where's Kwang Il?
He had a breakfast meeting, so he left early.
I see. He did?
I hear Poongsan Industry's second daughter-in-law...
is having an affair.
With a boyfriend from her past.
So they're getting a divorce.
So they really are getting divorced.
They dated secretly for three whole years.
Talk about guts.
What was their second daughter-in-law thinking?
She must have been blinded by love.
Why are you talking about other people's family problems?
In front of Father, especially.
Other people's family problems may become our problem.
You never know.
That will never happen in our family,
so if you're so worried, take better care of your family.
Really?
Then let's see...
if it'll be our family or someone else's.
Be quiet.
It isn't...
one of you here, is it?
The one who leaked information about the development.
If by chance...
it was someone here,
I will not forgive you.
Come now, Father.
No one here would've done that.
We gather and eat together every day.
Why would we do that?
It was definitely an outsider.
Of course.
That's right.
Now that information about the development leaked,
we must come up with a new plan.
What? How?
Forget about dissolving Shimmi Foods.
Normalize management instead.
Are you saying you want to save Shimmi Foods?
What choice do we have?
Being the largest shareholder isn't enough.
We need to win over...
the employee shareholders and the small shareholders to our side.
Do you think they'd trust us?
That's why we must...
beg and plead.
I have a strategy for normalizing Shimmi's management.
I'll use that to try to persuade the employee shareholders...
and the small shareholders.
Did you do that?
Yes. I was going to show it to you...
and discuss it with you anyway.
I'm glad...
you prepared that already.
The shareholders meeting is coming up soon.
Don't just sit still.
Get your employees out there.
Have them meet the small shareholders...
and beg and plead no matter what.
Yes, sir.
It's hot out.
Don't go empty-handed.
Tell them to each bring a watermelon or something.
Got that?
Yes, sir. I will.
We almost got counter-punched after trying to land a blow.
Min Jae, you punk!
Why did you have to do that?
Seriously. You're so useless.
Min Jae.
Don't do anything for the time being.
Don't you dare cause trouble without permission again.
I'll disown you. Understood?
Okay.
Anyway. What was that about Poongsan's second daughter-in-law?
Shi Wol's having an affair.
What?
Did you tell Mom?
With whom?
Not yet...
Sun Holding's Oh Tae Yang.
How could you tell them that?
What? You didn't tell her that?
No.
What's the big deal?
Shi Wol's ex-boyfriend is Mr. Oh,
the man who lives next door to them?
Yes.
Does Kwang Il know?
Yes.
But Mother,
you can't tell anyone for the time being, okay?
Kwang Il said he won't forgive anyone...
who divulges this information.
How could I keep this a secret?
This is too huge to keep a secret.
Forget that. I'm going to go now...
and tell Father and Jung Hee.
Sit down.
Don't get so worked up.
How could I not?
This is huge.
Okay. I got it. But let's think calmly about this.
We need to think about when to drop this bomb...
so that it helps us the most.
That's right.
We've been waiting for the right time. That's why we didn't tell you.
What? Are you saying you knew,
but didn't say anything?
What if we tell them without being prepared...
and end up being counter-punched?
That's right. That's why we wanted to drop the bomb...
once everything was confirmed.
Kwang Il, that punk.
So that's why he asked me to look into James Oh.
James Oh?
Oh Tae Yang's English name.
Anyway,
no one may talk of this...
without my permission. Okay?
I'm going to build it up into a giant snowball...
and wipe him out with one blow.
Got that?
- Okay. - Okay.
Why aren't you answering?
Fine.
Is that the watermelon?
I heard there was an order for all the general managers and up.
We were told to bring this to every shareholder of Shimmi Foods...
and beg and plead...
to vote for the new CEO at the shareholders meeting.
Yes. That's the current situation.
You poor thing. It's hot out too.
Anyway, I'm glad it was decided...
to normalize Shimmi's management.
It's what you wanted.
Yes, I'm glad.
Otherwise, I would've owed Yoo Wol a huge debt.
What do you mean, you would've owed him a debt?
It's just something.
- Anyway... - What?
Chairman Jang suspects Yoo Wol for leaking information...
about Shimmi's land's development.
So?
But it wasn't him. I can guarantee it.
What about it?
I need to find out who leaked information about the development.
Why do you need to do that?
Otherwise, Yoo Wol will be in danger.
If Chairman Jang and Chairman Choi...
conclude Yoo Wol was the leak,
they won't forgive him.
The chairman's office is looking for the leak.
I need to know.
I should've just stayed at my old law firm.
You scouted me to have me do things like this, didn't you?
Sorry.
Fine.
I'll show you that my people...
are much more useful than Mr. Koo's people...
one more time.
Wait and see.
Look especially carefully into Mr. Park Jae Yong's people.
Park Jae Yong? Kwang Il's aunt's family?
Yes.
Yangji's people are visiting...
every small shareholder of Shimmi with watermelons...
and begging them.
But the president and the management don't trust them.
How could they not?
They found out about the development and planned to take their land...
and dump the company.
You knew about the development plans for that land.
Why did you pull out?
You wanted to save Shimmi more than anyone.
Was it because of Shi Wol?
You two are just sickening.
Mr. Han came to see me?
He did. He was bawling and begging.
He asked you to help him.
They're normalizing management now because they have no choice,
but once the new CEO is appointed at the shareholders meeting,
they'll change their tune and dump them last yesterday's paper.
That's what Mr. Han said as he cried.
Did you want to see me?
Yes. Have a seat.
I looked over the documents you prepared.
You put in a lot of work.
It's still insufficient.
I'm still preparing the details,
so give me a little time.
There's no need.
Sorry?
You don't need to do that.
What do you mean?
This is plenty to persuade the small shareholders.
Shimmi Foods will be dissolved...
as originally planned...
if the shareholders meeting goes as planned.
This decision was made for the group,
so I hope you understand.
But... Chairman Jang said to save Shimmi Foods.
Did you really take that at face value?
You still don't know him very well, do you?
We need to appease the angry shareholders.
So we need a carrot to hold in front of them.
Are you saying this strategy that I prepared...
is nothing but a carrot?
Sorry about that.
So don't waste your energy on useless things.
That's why I wanted to see you.
It's me. I'd like to meet, right now.
What is it?
I'm sorry.
I don't think I can keep my promise.
I don't think...
I can save Shimmi Foods.
What do you mean?
Didn't Yangji decide to save them?
So it was a lie.
Yes.
There's no way Yangji would do that.
I had my doubts, but I didn't want to believe it.
I'm sorry.
It's beyond my control.
Why are you telling me this?
Are you telling me...
to jump back in and invest in Shimmi Foods?
Is that it?
If I get involved,
you'll lose a lot.
Is that okay?
It was never ours, to begin with.
I don't want innocent people to be sacrificed anymore.
I especially don't want to be the one to do it.
Your company...
is like a magic castle.
The illusion is so big,
that it's impossible to tell how extensive...
its fraudulent accounting is.
Unless someone stops them...
The tragedy from today,
the tragedy you experienced, will repeat itself.
Do what you want.
You're precise, just like numbers, so you can't even lie.
So follow your heart.
Like you said, I made you an accountant.
So become an accountant that I won't be ashamed of.
Shi Wol.
I don't need a fancy apartment.
We can just live here.
Yes.
That's how you were.
You always took the side of the weak.
Why did you change like this?
I just don't understand.
You'll save Shimmi Foods, right?
Yes. I'll try to save them.
Thanks for coming all the way here.
I've said what I want to, so let's go.
Shi Wol.
You freak!
He is your baby!
We did the test already.
What did you just say?
I said he really is your baby, you loser.
Shi Wol came...
and said let's do the test.
She said you will refuse to the bitter end.
That's right. We already had a paternity test.
It can't be. There's no way.
No. Definitely not.
But what if...
He has my eyes and my nose.
He has my mouth too.
Even my ears.
Then why doesn't he take after me at all?
I'm burning up inside. Why would you want scorched rice soup?
Ji Min, aren't you going to have scorched rice soup?
I like the cold soup noodle.
That's right.
See? You really are my blood.
I remember when he had a DNA test for your son.
No.
He was so happy when he confirmed that he was your son.
What is it?
It's about my son, Ji Min.
My grandfather...
had a paternity test done, right after Ji Min was born, right?
That's right.
You said my grandfather was very happy.
That's right. Why wouldn't he be?
He finally had...
his first great-grandson that he'd been waiting for.
I see.
Why are you asking about the past?
Well, back then,
did you run the test using my grandfather's DNA sample?
Ji Min's paternity test.
That's right.
I heard you refused.
That's why we tested him using Chairman Jang's DNA sample.
He asked me to keep it a secret.
I guess you knew.
A secret?
Who asked for that?
I heard your wife asked...
that we say we used your DNA sample...
for Ji Min's paternity test.
Regardless, he was so happy when he confirmed...
he was indeed his blood.
I can never forget that day.
(A Place in the Sun)
Shi Wol. How could you?
Three years ago,
what were you trying to tell me?
Tell me everything you know about James Oh.
This is James Oh?
So who exactly is Oh Tae Yang?
I'm so sorry.
I have no excuse to give to you.
You mocked me and deceived me all those years, and you're sorry?
I'm really sorry.
I will never forgive you two.
