(Episode 25)
Joon Seo.
How did you guys get here?
By train.
I asked him to visit our place.
I see.
I'm glad you're here.
Thank you for visiting.
You're about to cry.
It's because she's happy to see you.
He's right.
I'm so happy to see you.
Thank you.
Let's go in. It's cold.
(Woo Na Kyung)
Seo Ji Young.
Answer the phone!
Joon Seo, sit down.
Wasn't it cold outside?
Your hands are freezing.
Your cheeks are so cold.
I'm fine.
Mom, you should cook him something delicious.
Right.
What was I thinking?
What do you want?
Is there anything you want?
Tteokbokki.
He likes tteokbokki just like I do.
Okay.
Mommy will...
I mean...
I'll make it...
for you.
Okay.
You can spend time with the kids. I'll make it.
No. I'll do it.
It won't take long.
I'll be in my room with Joon Seo.
Okay.
Let's go.
My room is upstairs.
Okay. Let's go.
I can't wait to see your room.
Your room looks amazing.
This is an attic.
I study and play games here.
This is my favourite room.
The robot is cool.
Can I touch it?
Sure.
You can take anything you want.
Give me Ji Young's address now.
I'm on my way to Yangpyeong. Just wait.
I have to barge into her house.
She's not answering my calls now.
I told you to wait.
My son is somewhere I don't even know about now!
You know where he is. It's Joon Seo's birth mother's house.
Who is his birth mother?
If you want me alive,
call Ji Young and find out her address now.
Calm yourself down first. Just pull over the car and wait.
Give me her address first!
Wait.
Mom.
Here.
I think it's Joon Seo's mom.
She keeps calling me.
Oh.
Don't worry.
Tteokbokki will be ready soon. Wait a little more.
Okay.
I think you should talk to her and calm her down.
Okay.
Tell me your address. What is it?
I'll be there. Wait.
Bring Joon Seo back now.
Take Joon Seo with you.
What are you talking about?
Why did Hyeon Woo take Joon Seo to his place?
He stayed here, so I guess he wanted to invite Joon Seo over too.
Joon Seo has nothing to do with the family.
Why would he go there?
Joon Seo is his brother.
He would want to show Joon Seo how he's lived so far.
So I said yes.
You told them to go there?
Yes, I did.
Why would you let them go there for no reason?
Na Kyung went there to pick Joon Seo up, so he'll be back soon.
She can't come home unless she brings my two grandsons back.
Gosh.
Why are you alone? Where's Joon Seo?
He will stay with me for a few days.
Don't be ridiculous.
Let's go to your house. Lead the way.
Just go back.
You said you won't see Joon Seo.
So I've lived in hiding for 10 years.
But he came to me like a miracle.
Can't you just let me spend a few days with him?
How would I trust you?
You wouldn't want to send him back after a few days.
You even threatened me that you'd take Joon Seo back.
Na Kyung.
Stop being ridiculous and give Joon Seo back.
If you don't, I'll call the police.
Police?
If you take a kid without a parent's consent,
do you even know what crime it is?
How could you do this to me?
Why can't you be more considerate?
I know what you're up to.
I know you sent Hyeon Woo to my place deliberately!
Ji Young.
Mom.
What are you doing here?
Look who's here.
What are you doing here?
Hyeon Woo brought Joon Seo, Mom.
What?
Where's Joon Seo?
He's at home.
What is happening?
Did you send Joon Seo to us?
What nonsense are you talking about?
Hyeon Woo brought Joon Seo here without telling me.
So?
Did you come all the way here to take Joon Seo back?
Of course, I did.
If you don't send Joon Seo back to me, I'll take legal steps.
Before things get messy...
What? Take legal steps?
All right. Do whatever you want!
What... What did you say?
I've been looking forward to seeing you. I'm glad you came.
Let's do things legally.
Let's go to the police station.
Mom, please stop.
Dozens of times a day,
I wanted to go teach you a lesson.
I've been waiting for 10 years.
I'm glad you're here.
Let's go to our house. Go there and take Joon Seo back.
If you take Joon Seo with you,
I'll go straight to Kim Sang Chun...
and tell that old fart everything.
You think I can't do that?
You even brought a false charge against me.
I have a lot to talk about.
You've lived well off the whole time, right?
Now it's my turn to drag you down.
Let's go. Come with me.
You guys just can't wait to take the kid back.
Jae Wook, ask them to bring Joon Seo back.
I'll spend a few days with Joon Seo.
Okay.
I said no.
Let's go, Mom.
Hey, Ji Young.
Seo Ji Young!
Let's go home.
I can't go without Joon Seo.
Father said I can't go home without Joon Seo.
Is that why you're trying to take Joon Seo with you?
Because you're afraid of Father?
Jae Wook.
Is that why you came all the way here?
Then you have no right to take him home.
Let's go.
I can't go like this.
Get in the car.
Sit.
Gosh.
This is so cool, Dad.
He tried his best to make this.
Stop it.
Thank you, Dad.
It's nothing.
My dad has a desk like this too.
I'll ask Dad to buy me one.
Do you want me to make one for you?
Really?
Yes. I can make you one too.
Yes! That's so exciting.
Hyeon Woo.
- Hyeon Woo. - Grandma.
Hyeon Woo. Sweetheart.
My dear. Where have you been?
This is Joon Seo.
This is my grandma.
Hello.
All right. You must be Joon Seo.
Look at you.
You grew up so pretty.
Gosh, my hands are rough.
I don't want to leave scars on your pretty face.
It's okay, Grandma.
You're so sweet.
So Hyeon Woo, you brought Joon Seo here?
Yes.
He wanted to come to our house.
You did?
Gosh, I'm so glad you're here.
Let me look at your face.
My gosh.
Gosh.
Look how well you turned out.
You'll never know.
I've always thought...
that Joon Seo might leave me...
all of a sudden like this.
I know you are nervous.
But you should understand Ji Young too.
This is her first time to spend some time with Joon Seo.
Ji Young always comes first for you.
She has lived without her own son for the past 10 years.
Can't you just wait for a few days?
I'm really afraid.
What should I tell Father...
why I couldn't bring Joon Seo back?
I'll explain it to him. Just stay still.
Don't say anything unnecessary.
So make it sound like...
he visited his place as if he were visiting a relative's.
Just leave it to me.
Did you bring the kids home?
I'm sorry, Father.
What are you doing?
How could you return empty-handed when both of your kids...
are gone?
I could report you for negligence!
I sent them away, so you can report me.
Please don't mock me when I'm talking.
What does that make me?
Joon Seo wanted to go there.
I told them you were worried,
but they didn't listen.
Why would you mention me when he's your kid?
If you stay at a place where you're not supposed to,
it'll only cause trouble.
It's Hyeon Woo's house.
It's good for Joon Seo to see how his brother grew up.
You're so softhearted.
Follow me.
I don't care if Joon Seo spends a few nights there.
Then...
Why haven't you reported back about changing the family register?
It's still in preparation.
You've probably thought about how it'd be...
if Hyeon Woo became Kim Joon Gi.
What?
I'm sure you had a lot on your mind while he was here.
I've never been calculative like that.
Don't act like you didn't.
But it's easy to calculate this.
This could've been easily thought over,
but you made it more complicated than it actually is.
Father.
Look for some lot immediately.
Why?
She raised your kid. We should give her something in return.
Joon Seo, do you not miss me?
I'm missing you terribly.
Of course, I miss you too.
I'll go back home...
after playing with him.
You will come back tomorrow, right?
Only one day?
Can't I stay longer?
It's so fun here.
Joon Seo.
You can come back whenever you want.
Really?
Okay.
I love you.
You're so mean.
You are.
I'll get you a drink.
Have it, and go to bed.
Mom.
He wants to take a shower.
Do you want me to bathe you?
It's okay. I can do it on my own.
Really?
Of course. I'm 10.
We can shower together.
Okay.
Is it that hard for you?
You told me...
to think in her shoes and about how she couldn't see him for 10 years.
I'm also human.
Of course, I know how she feels.
But she has Hyeon Woo.
Joon Seo is my everything.
Joon Seo feels the same way too.
Don't be so anxious.
Do you really think so?
Do you think he feels that way?
He can't go to bed without me,
but he wants to spend the night there.
What if it's because he somehow feels a bond with them?
I wish that you'd be more courageous.
Joon Seo is bound to find out one day.
Is that what you think?
No secret lasts forever.
Joon Seo won't stay as a kid forever.
Honey.
Just treat him...
the way you do right now.
Then he's ought to understand when he grows up.
So this was how you've been thinking all these years.
When he grows up and asks you,
you will tell him everything.
You were on Ji Young's side, not mine.
Honey.
No one has to protect him for me.
I'll protect him.
I'm his mom.
Get out.
You should've let him sleep in Hyeon Woo's room.
Hyeon Woo said his bed was too small.
He wanted us to take him.
You can sleep here with him.
And you?
I can sleep wherever I want.
I have some leftover work to do.
I'll sleep in the living room,
so don't worry.
Thank you.
Don't say that.
You should go to bed.
My baby.
You've grown up so well.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry I've only found you now.
I'm truly sorry.
Mom...
Joon Seo...
I can't believe you're treating me to lunch.
This is unexpected.
We can understand each other.
What are you talking about?
Jae Wook would be disappointed to hear that.
I didn't forget what you did.
Is that what you wanted to tell me?
Father cares for Hyeon Woo a lot.
He wants Hyeon Woo to get his family name.
But Jae Wook is lukewarm about it.
He's doing that for Ji Young.
Isn't it better for Hyeon Woo...
to be the eldest grandson of the chairman of Cheonji Group?
Of course, it is.
Convince Jae Wook for me.
You two speak the same language.
Jae Wook and I have no secret.
If you convince him,
I'll never forget it.
Jae Wook is busy with the new business,
so he has no time to care for the construction.
And I can take care of it.
Among other things,
if it's good for Hyeon Woo,
I just can't say no.
I know.
What about Seung Hoon's diploma?
I just got a fax.
Take a look.
Is this real?
The Department of Construction Engineering in MIT.
He even graduated magna cum laude.
I can't believe this.
He always made trouble in the States. How is it even possible?
They checked it several times.
I told you to look into it sooner.
The whole thing turned out to be good for others, not me.
You should take a look at this too.
We got this from someone at the Madrid branch.
Did you find something?
She was dying to go to Madrid.
I see she had a boyfriend there.
He's married.
Really?
His wife is an influential person.
Are you sure?
It might not turn out to be good for others, right?
Make sure it won't leak.
Sure I will.
Look at this.
There are frogs in there.
And fish.
You can even take your sleigh on it in winter.
It sounds fun.
I guess during the summer we can take our boats on it.
Yes. We can ride a boat in summer.
- Joon Seo. - Yes?
Do you want me to give you a piggyback ride?
Yes.
Here.
1, 2, and 3.
This is exciting.
What are you doing here?
You should go play with him.
I like seeing Joon Seo and Mom together.
I'm glad...
that I brought Joon Seo.
Hyeon Woo.
Did you...
hear anything about Joon Seo?
That he's my younger brother?
How did you know?
My grandma in Seoul told me.
I see.
That's why you brought Joon Seo here. For your mom.
You're all grown up.
How could grown-ups make such a decision?
I just can't understand that.
But I know one thing for sure.
They did it to save my life.
That's right.
That was the only reason.
Thank you, Dad.
I want to be a good son for you.
It's good that you want to be a good son,
but I just want you...
to feel that way because you're my son.
I hope I can pay you back.
I really want to do that.
Hey.
Parents don't need anything...
as long as their children are happy.
It means I paid you back.
I brought Joon Seo.
And I'm glad to see Mom feeling so happy.
Right.
I'm happy too.
And you'll love Joon Seo too, right?
Just like you loved me.
(Episode 26)
Director Kim is here with the buyer.
She can't see any further than her nose.
Will you disclose it immediately?
I have to think for Jae Wook, so I'll see how she acts.
The conditions for this contract is good.
That underwear company is trying to expand.
I think they can fill in for all overseas sports brands.
How was the trip?
It was good. Director Kim made it a really great trip.
That's great.
I'm sure you'll have a lot more experience with us.
I'm really looking forward to that.
Thank you.
Please meet our company's general counsel.
- Nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you too.
Please have a seat.
Thank you.
I've read over the contract. You can go with this.
Here is the contract for you to review.
Thank you.
I'm only helping my family.
Thanks to you, this has worked out. Thank you.
I used all the resources I had to live up to your expectations.
I received a lot of help.
I guess I lived a good life.
Yes, let's make a contract like this.
Okay.
- Then let's do it. - Let's do it.
Thank you.
Did you have fun during your business trip?
Doesn't the result answer that?
I must've forgotten...
how competent you were.
Was that a compliment or a sarcasm?
We should talk.
Do it at home.
I'm tired. I'm going home to rest.
It's not something I can bring up at home.
It won't take long.
Are you still digging into me?
I'm just managing my VIPs.
It's not digging.
You should know.
He's my lover. So what?
And he's married.
He was single when he met me.
He was dedicated to me,
but I left him there.
I'm not interested in your love story.
You know that his wife...
is an influential person, right?
Are you trying...
to denigrate me for receiving help from my lover for this deal?
I'm not interested in how you got the deal.
I can easily send these photos to his wife.
Who knows? Maybe she already received more controversial photos.
This man will probably get divorced.
Or he might get kicked out penniless.
Don't tell me...
But that's out of my interest.
The club will cancel this deal,
words will spread,
and the overseas sports business will take a hit.
Jae Wook might have to let go of this new business.
Don't touch him.
If he gets divorced, that'll be the end of him.
Is that what you're worried about?
Are you not concerned about your brother's business?
You won't let that happen...
because it'll all be Joon Seo's.
That's exactly why I can't turn a blind eye on you anymore.
What do you want?
Leave...
Cheonji Group.
What?
Just lie low as a VIP member and live a happy life.
You can date all you want.
I'll pay...
for all your spending.
How... How could you do this to me?
- What is it? - I'm here to meet Ms. Woo.
You can't meet her right now.
- You're all garbage. - Sorry?
Were you talking about me?
Excuse me! Goodness!
Wait! What is it?
- Seung Hoon. - My goodness.
What are you doing? Excuse me!
- Be quiet. - Call me if you need me, ma'am.
What are you doing?
Don't harass my mom.
Just turn a blind eye.
If this goes haywire, Mr. Kim will have to deal with it.
What do you want me to do?
I'll take my hands off of Smart City.
Isn't that what you want?
I'll back off.
I'll back off from it, so you secure that land.
I was right.
You were planning to take back the land for him...
and also take over Cheonji Group.
That land is his.
If it wasn't for your M and A,
we wouldn't have lost that land,
and he wouldn't have lost his father.
Should I tell Father that?
Should I tell him that his daughter...
is planning to overthrow her own father?
How dare you?
You know Father well, right?
He'll never let this slide.
It's over for you.
Seung Hoon!
Please.
Don't harm her.
It's you.
- Hello. - Hello.
Who is this?
- My brother. - You had one?
You're so adorable.
Thanks for the gift.
You should be more polite to her since she'll be your senior.
Say, "ma'am" at the end of your sentences.
Stop it.
I heard your mom is Seo Ji Young.
- Yes, she is. - I'm a huge fan of hers.
Thank you.
I have a favour to ask.
Don't, Mom.
Why? A chance like this doesn't come that easily.
Come on. Just don't.
He'll feel pressured.
She wants to see your mom in person.
Bring her here.
Tell her I'll cook many delicious dishes for her.
Please, I beg you.
Okay.
Hyeon Woo, what will you buy me?
Right.
Can I use this?
I'll make it extra yummy.
I made sure it was special.
Hold on.
It's good.
- You can eat now. - Okay.
It's good.
(Yangpyeong Udon)
Hey, Hyeon Woo.
When will you come back?
I'm not sure.
How about tomorrow?
Why?
What do you mean?
There's an expiry date on that coupon.
Hurry up, and use it.
- Bye. - Bye.
So will he come or not?
He didn't even answer me.
He's such a weird boy.
Is Joon Seo doing well?
He's not sick, right?
He's doing great.
Please send him back home.
Please.
I'll send him back tomorrow.
Really?
I had a wish when I sent him to you.
I wished he'd be happy about coming to this world...
and grow up to become a cheerful kid.
Looking at Joon Seo, I realized my wish did come true.
Thank you for raising him...
into a bright and healthy kid.
Did you...
just thank me?
I did.
And I meant it.
I never expected you to say that.
Whenever I saw you,
I was anxious and worried that you'd steal him away from me.
What's wrong with me?
I must've been in sorrow all these years.
I raised him as my own.
I don't doubt that.
I've never forgotten about him.
But he has been living such a happy life without me.
I was grateful towards you.
I'm a shameful mother who cannot even...
approach him.
Ji Young.
I've checked with my own eyes that he's doing well.
That'll suffice.
I think this is all...
that I can take from this.
Thank you...
for raising him so well.
Thanks...
for saying that.
I think you've relieved me of my sorrow.
Do you feel rejuvenated?
- I feel great. - Let me help.
Whenever I come here, my back feels so much better.
- This is just wonderful. - I know.
You should stop by often as if you're visiting your son.
- It'll make you feel better. - I will.
Have a safe trip back home.
- Okay. - Goodbye.
- Be careful. - Okay.
- Let's go. - You're so pretty.
Did you go to the market?
I did.
I wanted to go home with you.
Okay, I just need to wrap up.
Gosh, thinking that I'd see Joon Seo back home...
made it so hard to focus on work.
I'm going to send him back home tomorrow.
Why?
Why so soon?
He probably misses his mom.
Who do you think is his mom?
You're his mom.
When I met him,
I felt grateful towards Na Kyung.
What?
I wonder if I would've done that great of a job raising him.
I might've neglected him...
since I had to focus on Hyeon Woo.
Still, you're his mom.
I gave birth to him to save Hyeon Woo.
But Na Kyung raised him with love.
That's a true mother.
All she did was hurt us.
Don't be ridiculous.
Let's hurry home.
I'll cook up something yummy for them.
- There you go. - Wow.
Thank you for the meal.
Eat up.
- Have this. - You should visit often.
Yes. You should visit me often too.
Okay.
Right.
Let's take a photo.
Right. I completely forgot to do that.
Hold on. Let me apply some lipstick.
The more you age, the more you should take care of your face.
Oh, come on. You're already so beautiful.
Did you really say that?
- All right, then. Let's take it. - All right.
- Joon Seo, come here. - All right.
- Okay. - Here I go.
1, 2, 3.
- One more time. - Hold on.
- Sit here. - Yes.
- Sit there. - Yes.
1, 2, 3.
Sorry, I'm late.
I had to send out something.
It's okay.
I asked to meet you beforehand...
to tell you two things.
Sure.
Even if it's just for the break,
please send Joon Seo over.
I will.
But we won't send Hyeon Woo there.
When he turns 20,
it'll be up to him which family he chooses.
Even if he chooses yours,
he'll still be my son.
But until then,
please don't hurt Ji Young...
with any legal issues.
Hyeon Woo told me...
that he only has...
one dad.
I will never...
hurt you and your wife.
I know very well that that is all I can do...
for you guys.
I'll bring Joon Seo.
Please wait here.
Are you ready?
- Yes. - Yes.
Dad.
Can I give this robot to him?
It's up to you.
Joon Seo.
My dad...
bought this robot for me when I was six.
You can have it.
Really? Thanks.
It's a great gift.
Joon Seo.
This robot protected Hyeon Woo.
Now, it will protect you.
Joon Seo.
Let's say goodbye here.
I won't see you out.
Goodbye.
Joon Seo.
Goodbye.
Be healthy.
Be happy.
Okay.
Let's meet again.
You have to visit us, okay?
Okay, I will visit again.
Good.
I'll see him off.
Explain well to your grandparents.
Don't worry.
All right. Let's go.
When will we ever see him again?
I'm sorry for taking him there...
without anyone's consent.
It's okay as long as you guys had a good time.
I heard...
you named me Kim Joon Gi.
We did.
That's what your grandpa registered you as.
I'll become Kim Joon Gi.
Really?
But in return,
please send Joon Seo to my mom.
What? Hyeon Woo, that is a bit...
My mom gave birth to him.
As you have said,
I don't know everything that the adults know.
But I think I can fathom how much my mom...
missed him.
Right.
I also understand how she must've felt.
But Hyeon Woo...
If you do understand,
please return him to my mom.
Once you agree to it,
I will move into this house.
I wear these clothes...
once I return to this place.
But... Hyeon Woo.
Hyeon Woo. Hyeon Woo.
No way.
So this was it.
It was this.
Joon Seo?
- Joon Seo. - Hi.
Where's Joon Seo?
I sent him to the main house.
We haven't finished talking.
I'm sure we're done talking about Seung Hoon.
I've thought about the solutions.
And it was quite simple.
I just need to kick you out.
You'll get kicked out before I do.
Would you like to go to Madrid?
What did you just do?
You're dead meat.
I told you not to do anything that'd make you weak.
Little did I know, Joon Seo was that weakness.
You were a stranger before you came here.
How dare you deceive us and make my son kneel?
I will never forgive you.
Kneel!
