(Episode 108)
What's the matter, Ha Neul?
(Kang Yu Na, Former Chairwoman Of Lara, Gets Arrested)
Ha Neul.
Dad, what is this?
This isn't Mom, right?
- Ha Neul. - This isn't her, right?
It can't be her!
- Ha Neul. - Let me explain.
I'll tell you everything.
So calm down.
Tell me it's not true, Ms. Do.
This isn't my mom, right?
No, this can't be her.
This isn't her!
Ha Neul.
Ha Neul, where are you going?
- Ha Neul. - Ha Neul.
Ha Neul.
- That needs to be straight. - Okay.
Woo Joo, why did you come down?
I was about to go home and cook you dinner.
Woo Joo, what is it? Is there something wrong?
Ha Neul is a little weird.
Ha Neul? Why?
He ran up to the rooftop crying.
Then Ms. Do and Mr. Han went after him.
- What? - Gosh, what is it this time?
Mom told me she's going on a business trip.
Was that a lie?
So she isn't on a business trip? She went to prison?
Why? Why did she go to prison?
Recently, your mom...
became the chairperson of Lara.
A chairperson is someone who leads a big company.
In the process of doing that, there were many problems,
and she ended up breaking the law.
Because your mother was the chairperson,
she had to take responsibility.
That's why she went to prison.
Does that mean she's a bad person?
A bad person?
No, that's not it.
Bad people go to prison.
Did she get arrested for doing something bad?
The things she did were wrong.
But she made those mistakes while trying to manage the company.
Even if she did it for the company,
it's still bad to break the law.
That means she did something bad.
Yes, it's bad to break the law.
So right now, your mom is looking back on her wrongdoings...
and repenting in prison.
Whenever you do something bad, you get punished, right?
It's similar to that.
She's right, Ha Neul.
I'm sure your mom is reflecting on her wrongdoings...
and full of regret.
Once she's forgiven,
she'll come back to see you again, so there's no need to be sad.
Okay, Ha Neul?
Mom.
For all of us are in need of your mercy.
- Amen. - Amen.
Thank you for that.
Hey, 4885.
Let me ask you something.
You haven't eaten at all ever since you came, have you?
There's something I don't get.
Those who used to run a company...
or have a nice educational background like you...
don't seem to have any trouble...
getting back on their feet even after their time in prison.
Can't you do the same and go back to what you were doing...
after you rot here for a couple of years?
Why does it seem like you've given up on everything?
My gosh.
When someone asks you a question, you're supposed to answer.
Gosh, that spiteful witch.
I've never met anyone as spiteful as you.
Gosh, just ignore her.
She's out of our hands now.
She's so exhausting to deal with.
Judging by your attitude,
it looks like you've lost all hope.
Hey, do you have no kids?
Even if you don't have hope,
you should stay strong for your kid.
You need to stay strong...
so you can get out and meet your kid again.
Please!
Will you please just leave me alone?
My gosh, you startled me.
Why would you yell like that? You darn little brat!
Gosh, hold your anger.
If we cause trouble again,
everyone in this cell will get minus points.
Jae Kyung and I would like to adopt Ha Neul.
Then what's your plan?
How do you plan to raise him?
This may sound cruel,
but you got sentenced to five years in jail.
You might even get a longer sentence if you have another trial.
Do you plan to take Ha Neul from Jae Kyung...
and raise him on your own as soon as you get out of prison?
Or do you expect Jun Ho to keep Ha Neul...
and raise him as his own son?
Inmate 4885, you have a letter.
You have someone writing to you every single day.
If I were you, I'd stay strong...
for that person's sake.
(To Kang Yu Na, From Shin Hyung Ja)
(From Shin Hyung Ja)
Once again, I'm writing this letter after hearing that you refused...
to see any visitors.
I know how much you resent me.
But the reason I chose to report my own daughter to the police...
was because I wanted to save you.
If you continued to commit more crimes,
I was scared that I might lose you for good.
It was the only thing I could do as your mother.
But I still don't regret it.
Even if I could go back to that day again,
I still would've called the police on you.
Don't skip your meals...
and stay healthy, Yu Na.
(To Kang Yu Na, From Shin Hyung Ja)
(From Shin Hyung Ja)
Is he asleep?
Yes, I barely put him to sleep.
I feel so bad for him.
He seemed extremely shocked.
I expected this to happen.
It was impossible to keep it from him forever.
It's going to be very hard for Ha Neul.
Yes.
She may have been an indifferent and unaffectionate mother,
but she was still his mother.
Yeon Hee, I'm sorry...
for putting you through so much.
Don't be absurd.
It's upsetting to hear you apologize.
I'm sorry for making you upset.
(Mom)
Hyung Jin, my stomach hurts.
Can you hurry up and come over?
I think I have an upset stomach.
Seo Woo.
Seo Woo, are you okay?
I'm okay now.
What happened?
I think I had an upset stomach because of what I had for dinner.
I was feeling dizzy earlier, and I thought I was going to faint.
But I threw up twice, and now I feel much better.
Let's go inside.
Fortunately, you seem fine.
Have an IV injection and get some good sleep.
Tomorrow morning, we'll go to the hospital.
I'm okay now. I don't need an IV injection.
Just do as I say.
I'm sorry for calling you in the middle of the night.
I wanted to call my mom,
but it was too late.
And it wasn't anything regarding Pureun.
I knew I had an upset stomach.
Thank goodness it was just an upset stomach.
But if this happens again,
wake your mother and call me right away.
- Okay? - Okay.
Stop worrying about me and go home.
I'm not going anywhere.
I can't leave you here alone.
I'm really okay.
Seo Woo.
- Should I move in here? - What are you talking about?
Let's live together until you give birth.
I don't feel comfortable about leaving you here alone.
Stop talking nonsense.
Why is that nonsense?
Your grandmother's at the hospital,
so I'll sleep in her room.
Who knows what might happen as your belly gets bigger?
Hyung Jin.
Just think about it, okay?
I'm sure you had a long day at the hospital.
You should go home and sleep comfortably.
Okay, don't worry about me and go to bed.
(3H Smart Massage Bed)
- I'll go wake Ha Neul up. - No, I'll go.
Did you sleep well?
- How do you feel? - Not so good.
Your eyes are swollen.
I know it doesn't feel nice when you wake up...
and still have a lot on your mind.
But when that happens, think about the things you need to do.
If worrying isn't going to change anything,
it's better to stop worrying...
and start focusing on things that you need to do.
Like what?
What do you need to do right now?
Wash my face, pack my school bag,
and get ready for school.
Exactly. Let's get ready.
Come on.
You have PE class today, right?
You'll probably sweat a lot, so I think you should wear this.
What do you think?
What do you need to do next?
- Wash and eat breakfast. - Let's go.
There you go.
How nice and refreshing.
Eat up.
Let's eat.
You woke up early.
Hello, Mother.
Hey, Hyung Jin. What are you doing here so early?
I had an upset stomach last night,
so I called him for help.
I told him to go home,
but I guess he stayed because he was worried.
You had an upset stomach?
You should've called me right away.
Why didn't you call?
Why are you all so worried about me?
I'm fine, you guys.
Okay, thank you.
Thank you for everything, Attorney Lee.
- Okay, bye. - What was that about?
He called to tell me about the annulment.
It's finally over.
Really?
So that brat is finally out of our family register?
Gosh, thank goodness.
Will you be leaving soon?
Yes.
When do you plan to leave?
In a few days.
I need to meet someone before I leave.
You need to meet someone? Whom?
- Don't tell me... - I should meet Ha Neul.
Ha Neul?
What are you going to say to him?
Are you going to tell him you're not his father?
Mom, come on.
He's not that dumb.
I also think you should meet Ha Neul.
You should talk to him so he doesn't get confused.
Okay, Dad.
You're going to integrate the two design teams?
Yes, it's time we redevelop the design department...
and start fresh.
I'd like you to be the executive director...
of the newly integrated design department.
You want me to be the executive director of the design department?
Yes, you're the best person for the job.
I don't know if I'll be able to do a good job...
in leading the integrated design department.
I'm sure you'll do great.
The board also agreed with me yesterday.
I also think so.
Ms. Do will do a great job.
I also plan to integrate your marketing team...
with the marketing team we originally had.
Mr. Han, you'll get promoted as the director...
of the integrated marketing team.
What?
I need both of you to help me out,
but it's also for the normalization of Lara Fashion,
so please don't refuse the offer and do your best.
Okay, I will.
Okay, I'll also work harder.
But I do feel bad.
You guys won't be able to work in the same office anymore.
I'll be busy running around anyway.
I'll drop by the design department every now and then.
Africa?
Yes. He finally got the annulment today.
So he'll be gone in a few days.
But why Africa?
Maybe he's planning on going to a remote area in Africa.
He's been through so much in such a short amount of time.
I'm sure he's not in the mood to go to a resort or go on a tour.
I guess his goal is to forget the miserable past...
by going somewhere remote and uncomfortable.
I wonder...
if Yu Na also heard about the annulment.
It's hard to imagine...
the look on her face when she hears about it.
What's with your face?
I had a small fight.
Jun Ho, you don't look too good yourself.
You must resent me a lot.
I know it's a lot more than just resentment.
I know I have no right to say this,
but I've really been reflecting on myself.
Jun Ho.
Can you please forgive me?
What? Forgive you?
I really want you to forgive me...
regardless of the punishment I get.
What's that supposed to mean?
I know you can't forgive me right now.
But I promise I'll reflect on myself,
repent on my wrongdoings, and leave this place...
as a whole new person.
When I get out in five years and meet you again,
I will pay for all my wrongdoings...
and do everything I can to make up for it.
I promise. I swear I can do it, Jun Ho.
Our annulment got finalized today.
- What? - I told you...
that I'll file a lawsuit if you don't sign the divorce papers.
I got the final results today.
Are you saying...
we got a divorce?
Are we divorced by law?
No, it's not just a divorce.
We got an annulment.
Our marriage that was filled with nothing but fraud,
deception, and crimes...
is no longer valid.
Jun Ho.
I'll be leaving the country soon.
You're leaving? Where?
When will you be back?
I'm not sure.
I don't plan on coming back anytime soon.
I'll probably be back...
once I'm able to forget about our entire past.
But I'm not sure if that day will ever come.
Jun Ho.
It's over now...
between us.
I hope we never meet again...
both in this life...
and the afterlife.
Jun Ho.
(A happy correction leads to a happy future.)
Hello, I've been waiting for you.
It's been a long time, Director Jang.
Can you promise me something?
Promise me that you'll make this work.
Okay.
Let's give it a try and see where this leads us.
Yu Na.
I love you.
I love you, Yu Na.
No, it's not just a divorce.
We got an annulment.
Our marriage that was filled with nothing but fraud,
deception, and crimes...
is no longer valid.
It's over now between us.
I hope we never meet again...
both in this life and the afterlife.
It's over now.
Everything is...
over now.
What do you mean?
You want to move in with Seo Woo?
I literally mean what I just said.
I want to move in with her.
You want to live with Seo Woo?
Yes, Dad.
Seo Woo had an upset stomach last night.
You have no idea how startled I was...
when she called after midnight.
Things are only going to get more difficult for her,
and she might find herself in an emergency situation.
I want to be there for her until she gives birth.
I know what you mean,
but that just seems wrong.
What did Seo Woo say?
She refused and told me she'd be fine.
If she refused, then you need to accept that.
I know you're Pureun's father,
but she might think you're asking for too much.
How am I asking for too much?
She's pregnant with our baby.
I want to be there so I can take care of her and the baby.
What's so wrong with that?
Seo Woo's mother won't approve of it either.
We can't just ignore what other people might think.
Dad.
Hyung Jin has a point, honey.
Back when I was pregnant with Hyung Jin,
you have no idea how reassured I felt...
to always have you by my side.
When a woman is pregnant, she needs her husband.
But Hyung Jin can't be there, so I get why he's frustrated.
Even so,
nobody will think this is normal.
Why don't we have Seo Woo move into our place?
- What? - That's not a good idea either.
Imagine how uncomfortable she will feel.
Do you think so?
I'll talk about it with Seo Woo.
I just think my idea...
is the best choice for both Seo Woo and the baby.
You know, I'm upset.
I know it was late at night,
but I'm just right across the hall.
How could you not call me?
Because I knew it had nothing to do with the baby.
I didn't want to wake you and Mr. Han...
in the middle of the night...
just because I had an upset stomach.
I care more about your wellbeing than sleep.
Why is everyone so sensitive when it comes to me?
You and Hyung Jin both.
I know it's because you guys care and worry about me,
but you both treat me like I can't take care of myself.
What's wrong?
Did something happen with Hyung Jin?
He wants to move in here with me.
What? Hyung Jin said that?
Last night, he told me...
that he'd like to move in and live with me...
until I give birth.
He must be really worried about me.
What do you think about that?
I understand how he feels,
but it's just absurd.
Why do you think it's absurd?
Although we couldn't get married,
I told him he could still do his part as a father,
and he willingly accepted it.
So although people might have a hard time...
understanding our relationship,
we still managed to come this far as Pureun's parents.
But I'm starting to think...
that I'm being selfish.
You think you're being selfish? What do you mean?
I feel like I'm tying him down...
just because he's Pureun's father.
Seo Woo.
If I was going to behave like this,
I should've just accepted it...
when he offered to marry me for the best.
Back then, I rejected the offer.
But I feel like he's being tied down because of me.
Why would you think that?
You can't force someone to stay with you...
if they don't want to stay.
I'm sure Hyung Jin thought about it before he asked you that,
and it's even worse to take away his right...
as the baby's father.
That's what I thought,
and we haven't had any problems until now.
But because you guys keep treating me like this,
I find myself becoming weak and more reliant on you guys.
I don't like that.
I get what you mean.
Take some time...
to talk about it with Hyung Jin.
It's not good to just hide your feelings...
and hope that things will work out for the best.
Tell him everything you told me.
I think you should talk to him...
and tell him how you truly feel.
Okay, I'll do that.
Okay.
After Lara Group went through a big commotion...
due to the former chairwoman's slush fund and irregularities,
things are finally going back to normal...
after they've appointed Seo Min Koo as their new chairman.
Chairman Seo Min Koo held a press conference today...
regarding the normalization of Lara Group.
He announced that he would do his best to help Lara Group,
a company that was once known as an impartial company,
take a big leap toward a better future.
I'm the chairwoman of Lara.
She's lost her mind...
now that she's been starving for a week.
I feel bad for her.
I'm the chairwoman.
It's me.
It's me, Kang Yu Na.
I, Kang Yu Na,
will humbly accept the chairwoman position at Lara...
and do my very best to reconstruct...
an impartial and transparent company...
so I can follow the footsteps of Chairman Jang Cheol Yong.
Also,
I will manage the company with a new goal that fits the new era...
so that Lara Group can become...
the number one company...
in both our country and the world...
- My gosh! - Hey, 4885!
- Kang Yu Na!
Wake up!
Yu Na.
Mom.
Do you feel better?
Inmate 4885. Kang Yu Na.
Where am I?
You're in the infirmary.
Don't you remember? You passed out in your cell.
I heard you refused to eat for a whole week.
Are you trying to get yourself killed?
Yes, just let me die.
I don't want to live anymore.
Ms. Kang.
I just want to die.
So just let me be.
You're pregnant.
What? What did you just say?
You're eight weeks pregnant.
What?
(Amor Fati)
I need to adopt you.
Then what about Mom?
That baby will have a mother who's penniless...
and also an ex-convict.
That baby came to you to give you one last opportunity.
Why do you keep calling her Ms. Do?
Shouldn't you call her "Mom"?
I bet he's confused.
He's probably wondering what's going to happen to his mom.
I hate my mom so much,
but I miss her.
