(Episode 38)
You must be really upset.
I can understand you.
But do you know what Jan Di did?
Jan Di...
gave me such a cold glare.
I won't forget it...
until the day I die.
Father.
Do you know what I saw today?
I'm not a mind reader.
How can I guess such a thing?
I saw a drawing...
by Jan Di.
A drawing?
Yes.
She apparently drew her mother.
I could feel her desperate longing for her mother.
A drawing is only a drawing.
Why did she draw such a thing?
She's making you upset.
Father.
This is why I'm asking you to stop pushing things.
Please wait until she's able to accept the situation.
When she's ready,
I'll think about what I want to do.
But we don't know how long that might take.
You'll be too old by the time she's grown up.
No one will accept you even if you want to remarry then.
Please.
What did you bring with you?
Right.
I started a new job...
and got my first paycheck.
Try it on.
Is it a hat?
What kind of work is it?
It's a caretaker job.
I thought you started a big business or something.
It's getting late. You should go.
I'll get going.
Don't skip your meals.
I'm leaving.
He should buy gifts that meet my level.
Doesn't he know I only wear brand products?
Is that true?
That Mom and President Dong were to be engaged?
Yes.
How could you hide that from me?
I heard you knew as well, Grandpa.
The day we had planned to tell you,
Ju Hyuk beat us to it.
Right. It must have been that day.
The day we had a garden party with President Dong's family.
That's when Ju Hyuk proposed to Mi Rae.
Just to make it clear,
President Dong and I are through.
That's why I didn't bother telling you.
You should have told us anyway.
Grandpa, was that the reason why you were against Ju Hyuk and Mi Rae?
Of course.
Their parents were about to get married, and the kids were dating.
It's unspeakable.
It's an embarrassment.
You're right.
How could the parents and the kids of two families date each other?
It's like a soap opera.
Don't you think so?
Honey, watch what you say.
What's the matter? It's true the situation is just like one.
I mean...
it's really astounding.
Keep this information to yourselves.
Don't ever tell Mi Rae.
What do you plan to do?
All of us know now.
You won't let her keep dating Ju Hyuk, will you?
I won't ever give them permission.
Now that you know, I'll be honest.
I want your mother...
and President Dong to get married.
- What? - Grandpa...
Father.
Why aren't you eating?
Can I be honest with you?
What is it?
I'm embarrassed to say this.
Actually,
I'm full from just watching you.
What did you say?
Do I sound silly?
Yes, you do.
Right.
Here.
- Is it a gift? - Yes.
Was it this?
I heard you used to like chess.
Your aunt told me...
you used to play chess a lot with your father.
I want you to make such good memories with him again.
It's all in the past now.
What?
Something like chess...
won't get Father and me to make up.
Still... You should try it.
Go ahead and eat.
Gosh. He was talking about himself.
Who?
President Dong asked me earlier today...
what I would think about Mom getting married to someone nice.
What? That means he didn't give up on her.
Why are you still out here?
We just feel restless.
Mom. I don't like President Dong...
as your other half.
If it's about that, let's stop talking about it.
I don't have any intentions of getting back together with him.
What about Mi Rae?
Will you continue to keep this relationship a secret from her?
Yes. So you can't tell her, okay?
She's involved in the situation. It's her right to know.
If she finds out,
do you think she'll be able to handle it?
That's true. I'm shocked too.
Soo Ji, you should be extra careful.
You should head upstairs now.
We are waiting to see Mi Rae before going up.
Let's go upstairs. Good night.
Good night, Mother.
- Come on. - But Mi Rae...
- Come on. - Why?
Darn this mouth.
What do we do?
Now Jae Hyun and Soo Ji know.
It's for the better.
They would've found out sooner or later.
Still...
Is that you, Ju Hyuk?
Gosh. Hey.
You're late.
- Yes. - Ju Hyuk.
What should we do?
What is it? Did something happen?
Jae Hyun and his wife found out...
about your father and Chan Ran.
What?
Did you tell them, Father?
No, he didn't.
Your stupid aunt made a mistake.
It's a matter of time before Mi Rae finds out.
Kyu Chul, we must keep this a secret from Mi Rae.
If she finds out her mother gave up on getting married to you for her,
she'll be so shocked.
What's more shocking...
is that everyone around her has been hiding it from her.
Including Ju Hyuk.
I'm sorry, Ju Hyuk.
Okay? Hey, Ju Hyuk?
Gosh. What a loud mouth I have.
I feel so bad.
Mi Rae.
- When did you get home? - Just now.
I thought you were sleeping.
How can I when you're not home?
You came home so late today.
Who did you meet?
Who else?
Ju Hyuk?
Yes.
- Hey, Mom. - Yes?
Are you feeling sick?
You look pale.
I must be tired.
Are you sure you're not sick?
Of course not.
- Come and eat breakfast. - Okay.
What about your workbook?
I did all the problems.
Have a look.
Gosh. Good work.
Let's work on the mistakes tonight.
Okay.
It's Grandpa. Why aren't you picking up?
I don't want to talk to him.
He must have something to say to you.
You should answer it.
It's obvious. He wants my help with your divorce.
That's why I don't want to pick it up.
Jan Di.
What are you two doing?
Hurry up and eat your breakfast.
Okay, Grandma.
Good.
Let's eat together, Dad. I'm hungry.
- Okay. - You should hurry, or you'll be late.
Come on. Gosh.
Where did I put it yesterday?
Gosh. Soo Ji.
Are you looking for this?
Yes. But why do you...
It was in the bathroom upstairs.
Thank you.
You must have been really tired last night to leave it behind.
It's the proposal ring from Ju Hyuk, right?
Yes, Soo Ji.
Your dating life isn't so smooth, either.
You have to carry the memento in secret from your family.
Meanwhile, Mother will grow old alone and die a lonely death.
I'm sure she'll meet someone nice soon.
How can you say that?
Don't you know she had to break up with someone nice because of you?
What? What do you mean?
Honey.
What are you doing in here?
What's wrong with that?
I'm late. Give me my tie. Hurry.
- I'm talking right now. - See you, Mi Rae.
- Come on. - Gosh.
- Get in there. - What's the matter with you?
You know how to put on a tie.
It's not about my tie.
Mom told you not to say anything.
What's the matter with you?
No matter how much I think about it,
it's ridiculous to keep it a secret from Mi Rae.
What's so ridiculous?
Mother had to give up her marriage to President Dong for Mi Rae.
It's such a heartbreaking story.
Mi Rae should know about it more than anyone.
Do you think she'll be able to date Ju Hyuk after finding out?
That's not my problem.
What?
Do you want your sister and Ju Hyuk to keep dating...
in this situation?
That's what Mom wants.
Are you sure it's not because you don't want Mother to remarry?
Well, that's...
It's better if Mother and President Dong get married.
Mother already gave you and Mi Rae her shares.
She doesn't have any of her own.
But think about having Ju Hyuk as your brother-in-law.
He'll use the shares Mi Rae has to his advantage...
and threaten your position.
I'm only going to think about what's beneficial for us.
Honey, that's still wrong.
I'm not doing this for my own well-being.
I'm doing it for Jun Pyo.
I can do anything if it's to protect...
his position as the heir.
This is driving me crazy.
Don't get in my way.
(Caution: Hot)
Ms. Dong!
- Goodness. - What are you doing with bare hands?
You almost burned yourself.
Gosh. I forgot my gloves.
Step aside. I'll take it out.
Okay.
Did something happen?
Your head is in the clouds today.
Actually,
I caused a really big problem yesterday because of my big mouth.
A big problem?
The thing is...
There I go again.
I really shouldn't talk about it.
This won't do. I'm going to stay outside.
Could it be something serious?
(Hwang Dong Food)
Chairman Hwang, I'm sorry for the shock yesterday.
My sister had a slip of the tongue.
I heard Jae Hyun found out about me and Chan Ran.
I'm sorry about that.
If you're sorry,
deal with the kids first before things get too messy.
That is the only way for you and Chan Ran to start over.
That's why I plan to persuade Jae Hyun first.
When Jae Hyun turns his back on them,
it will put them under pressure.
All right. Take care, sir.
Did you ask for me?
Sit down.
I bet you were shocked to hear about your mother.
It'd be a lie to say I'm not.
Your mother asked me to stay silent, so I couldn't tell you.
I'm sorry.
I'm sure she asked because of Mi Rae.
Also, my mother told me she had already broken up with you.
Right.
But your Grandfather might not agree.
Until you find your place,
he wants me to continue leading Hwang Dong Food.
It's for Jun Pyo's best interest as well.
It's the reason why the chairman wants me as his son-in-law.
I know.
It's because I'm not good enough.
It wasn't easy for your mother to make the decision.
After deciding to marry me,
she dreamed of a beautiful life as a woman.
But because of Mi Rae...
She was reluctant,
but she gave up because of Mi Rae.
She went through a rough time because of it.
Really? My mother?
Yes.
You must know better than anyone...
how lonely she has been after being widowed.
I want to be her rock...
for the remainder of her life.
(Horang Art Academy)
Do you mean...
Kang San didn't even bat an eye...
when you presented the divorce papers?
Exactly. He wouldn't budge.
I bet you felt dejected.
I'm upset for you, Father.
I can't even describe it in words.
I went all the way...
to meet with Jan Di's uncle-in-law at his work...
to get him to write the divorce complaint. It was so much work.
What? He wrote a divorce complaint?
At first, he refused to do it.
Then he felt pity for Kang San and ended up writing one.
Gosh. I thought he was a self-centered guy.
I didn't expect this from him.
Anyway, Jan Di is the problem.
She's mad at me because I want her dad to get a divorce.
She won't pick up my calls.
I was so good to her all these years.
Really? You must be upset.
Father,
it's almost time for Jan Di to arrive.
Do you want to see her before you go?
Forget it.
(Horang Art Academy)
Are you heading out?
I don't have anything else to say, so I'll go.
I understand.
The artworks of our students are really beautiful, aren't they?
They're all the same to me.
Right.
I heard Jan Di drew something.
Did she say this was a drawing of her mother?
Yes.
She told me it was the image of her mother in her head.
Goodness.
Instead of her mother's face,
she drew a picture of an ugly foot.
But I think she drew her mom's foot...
because she desperately wished for her mom to return.
That's a nice way to put it.
Why does she like her mom so much when she left her?
But Jan Di is doing very well...
thanks to the love of her family.
Also, she talks about you all the time.
Did she talk bad about me?
No. She seems to like you a lot.
Really?
Yes.
Ma'am.
Yes?
Are you attending the parent meetings today?
Of course, I should since my son is the school president.
I took a look around the school grounds last time,
and the recycling area was worn out.
It's a safety hazard.
Also, there should be a mat at the front door to avoid any slipping.
So?
I can't attend the meeting because of my work here.
I came up with a few recommendations.
Could I give them to you?
Let me see it.
Thank you.
Here.
You're quite an overzealous parent.
It's for our children. Of course, I should keep an interest.
Is that so?
Of course.
(Hwang Dong Food)
Did you hear Mr. Han from HR...
and Ms. Yoon from Sales might be dating?
Yes. I heard someone witnessed them acting lovey-dovey over dinner.
It's all over the bulletin board.
I didn't expect you to be interested in such gossip.
Gosh. News travels fast.
This is why I'm always cautious at work, Ms. Park.
People might talk behind my back for being handsome.
Have you heard of this one?
If there is Bae Yong Joon in "Winter Sonata,"
you have me at Hwang Dong Food.
I have to admit you're handsome,
but you're old.
"Old?" How could you?
By the way, are we going to have a welcoming party for you?
It's too much of a hassle.
But all of us want to spend...
some heart-to-heart time with you.
- I'm not sure. - Gosh.
- Hello. - Hey.
Mr. Dong, can we step out to talk?
I heard you knew about my mom and your father.
Yes. I heard about it recently from my aunt.
So Mi Rae is the only one who doesn't know.
What do you plan to do?
What else?
I sincerely love Mi Rae.
Can I take your word for it?
What do I need to do to prove it?
On top of that, your mother doesn't have any intentions...
of getting together again with my father.
That's why she supports us.
You'll keep on cheering us on, right?
That was what I was intending, but...
But what?
After hearing about it from President Dong,
I kind of feel sorry for my mom.
Her life as a woman is pitiful.
Gosh.
I don't know what to do.
Don't tell me you support their marriage.
What about Mi Rae?
What about the shock she'll get?
Ju Hyuk.
To be honest, my mind's in a mess.
I can't make up my mind.
Why does Grandpa keep calling me?
Don't think I'll ever pick up.
(Turn off)
(Let's embrace our friends who are heartbroken.)
Ms. Choi. Mr. Geum is really something, isn't he?
What do you mean?
He sent us his recommendations in writing.
They were good.
The other moms liked them too.
That? I gave him some ideas.
I see.
By the way, Yu Jin told me...
she saw Mr. Geum with a woman.
- A woman? - Yes.
He was making such a fuss about finding Jan Di's mom.
I guess he's just a man, after all.
It can't be helped.
I knew it from the start.
We'll soon hear of his wedding and new family.
I think so.
But I'm a little curious...
who the woman might be.
Me too.
Gosh. I think she heard us.
You should greet your elders first.
Why are you glaring at us?
That's very rude.
What did you just say a minute ago?
What? What did I say?
Did you say my dad will get married?
Why is he getting married?
(Apple of My Eye)
It came. I got in.
I got in!
I passed.
Father. Is it true you blackmailed for money?
I didn't blackmail anyone.
Hey, how much longer do you plan to date in secret?
- What? - No way!
Is it true Ms. Ok is Mr. Dong's girlfriend?
