(Episode 76)
Come in.
I'm home.
I see you're all in here.
Why did you stay out so late?
Mi Rae, come here and sit down.
What is it, Jae Hyun?
Soo Ji had someone spy on me to keep an eye on me.
What do you think about that?
Spying on you?
Mi Rae, to tell you the truth, I planted a spy in the company...
because of Ju Hyuk, not because of Jae Hyun.
What are you talking about now?
It seemed like Ju Hyuk had another woman,
so I wanted to keep an eye on him.
He has another woman? Mi Rae.
Oh, my. Mi Rae, you look like you already know.
Did you really know that all along?
Is what Soo Ji said true, Mi Rae?
Mi Rae, why can't you say anything?
Did you know that Ju Hyuk was seeing someone else?
No, Mom.
That woman Soo Ji is referring to...
is an acquaintance of his whom he met in the US.
Turns out, she also takes classes at the academy.
That's all.
Really?
Soo Ji, why did you bring it up without even fully looking into it?
Well, it's common for men to lie and call their secret lover...
"an acquaintance."
Am I wrong?
Soo Ji, Mi Rae knows her too.
Mi Rae, then why didn't you tell me?
Soo Ji, I did tell you that I'd take care of it.
Soo Ji, you're too paranoid.
You nearly ruined Mi Rae and Ju Hyuk's relationship for no reason.
No, that wasn't my intention. I was truly concerned about Mi Rae.
Okay, all right. Let's drop this.
And you, Soo Ji. Do not meddle in the business again.
I won't, Grandfather.
Mother, why are you glaring at me as if you want to kill me?
What? Oh.
I just came to take a look around to see if you had any laundry.
You and Ye Ju came to my room together to pick up laundry?
Well...
I'm just trying to help Mom because of her bad knees.
Don't mind us, and just go wash up.
You have to brush your teeth before bed.
What? Brush my teeth?
Come on. Sang Soo, you're a good boy.
Hurry up. Go brush your teeth and wash up.
My goodness, Ye Ju. You're acting cute today.
- I'll go wash up. - Okay.
Go on.
Hey, his phone. Where is his phone? Look for his phone.
- Here it is! - What?
You found it? Then before Sang Soo comes back,
hurry up and find the solid evidence Mr. Geum told us about.
Okay. I know his passcode.
Good.
It's 369369369.
- I unlocked it. - What?
You did? Then check his call history first.
- Quick. - Okay.
My gosh! He's been talking to "Ms. Choi" on the phone...
- every single day, Mom. - What?
This woman called "Ms. Choi" must be his mistress.
What? "Mistress?" Gosh, what should we do?
Does that mean Sang Soo is really having an affair?
Wait, Mom. We should check the text messages too.
What?
My goodness. This is embarrassing.
Gosh, what is it? Show me.
What? "Come to Chamjoeun Hotel by 7 p.m."
These crazy rats!
Mother, I need to brush my teeth,
but we're out of toothpaste. Do we have a new tube...
Toothpaste, my foot!
How dare you cheat on Jin Ju?
What? "Cheat?" What on earth are you talking about?
Sang Soo, we saw the text message. Don't you dare try to play dumb.
You even went to a hotel with your mistress called "Ms. Choi."
- Ms. Choi? - Yes! Ms. Choi.
Who is this darned woman, Ms. Choi?
- Mom, shall we tell Jin Ju now? - Yes!
Ye Ju, why are you being like this too?
Mother, please let go.
I can't. How could you...
Mother! Why are you being like this?
Sang Soo, what is going on?
I have no idea either.
What do you mean you have no idea?
You had an affair with a woman called "Ms. Choi" behind our back!
An affair? What do you mean?
I need to move out of this house as soon as possible.
I'm really sorry, Sang Soo.
Mother, I think it's so unfair that I was falsely accused...
while working for Ms. Choi in an espionage operation.
But you even accused me of cheating on my wife.
This is nuts.
Sang Soo, I must've been out of my mind.
Forgive me just this once, okay?
I'm really sorry too, Sang Soo.
"An espionage operation?"
You got caught while secretly spying on someone.
- What did you say? - Father!
- What? Am I wrong? - I mean...
Gosh, forget it.
Anyway, my parents never once hit me while raising me.
They treated me like a prince growing up.
But today, I was grabbed by the collar twice.
My goodness. I'm sorry.
Mr. Geum! Why did you tell us that he could be having an affair?
I told you to find evidence. I never said to grab him by the collar.
But you... Well, you're right.
Anyway, why did you go to the hotel with that lady?
I told you. To listen to her vent.
You see, based on my experience,
that's how every extramarital affair begins.
Is that really true, Mr. Geum?
Yes, I'm telling you.
I'd say the probability is around 97.7 percent.
- Father. - Hey, Kang San!
Stop your father, will you?
This is so frustrating!
- Sang Soo. - Sang Soo.
- Sang Soo! - Wait, Sang Soo.
They say a strong denial is like an affirmation.
Something's fishy here. Very fishy.
Father, that's enough.
He must've had a really stressful day today.
And he's working very hard these days, for the family's sake.
Yes, I know how hard he's been working,
but I suspected him and upset him like this.
Anyway, why did that woman have to ask my dear son-in-law...
to keep an eye on her husband? Why tell him to do something so hideous...
and get him into this mess?
Right, exactly. Kang San, isn't this considered abuse of power?
Well, I don't think so.
In any case, Sang Soo was stuck in a difficult position.
It is considered abuse of power.
If this isn't considered abuse of power, what is?
Gosh. That day,
I really should've knocked some sense into her.
Kang San, why did you have to give the 300 dollars back to her?
Hold on, Mr. Geum. Something happened between you and that woman in the past?
Yes, that's right.
A while back, I tried to teach her a lesson.
She kept going on about how Jan Di doesn't have a mother...
and said so many mean things.
But this fool ruined everything.
Goodness. Kang San, why did you do that?
Why do you keep taking her side?
Mom's right, Kang San. Why did you take that woman's side?
You traitor.
What?
Why are you here? It's getting really late.
Mi Rae.
There are no more misunderstandings between us, right?
And you don't need to worry about Cha Yu Jin anymore.
It really is all over now.
This isn't about Cha Yu Jin.
This is...
about trust.
The trust between us.
"Trust?"
What does this mean?
I tried to trust you.
But it didn't work out as I hoped.
However, I liked you for so long,
so it's just really hard to let go of all those years.
That's why I haven't made my final decision yet.
Mi Rae.
You witnessed everything I went through at work today.
So you understand me, right?
Yes, of course.
Even after getting grabbed by the collar,
I can't just quit and walk out.
And I have to live with my in-laws because I can't afford to move out.
Honestly, I feel so sorry for myself.
Sang Soo, you're doing all this for Se Chan's sake.
Just like how I live for Jan Di,
no matter how hard and stressful it may be.
But I wonder if Se Chan...
would understand how I feel later on.
What if he doesn't? Would you regret doing all this for him?
No, of course not.
What? Ms. Choi texted me.
Mr. Eun, even the chairman found out...
that you had been working for me as my spy,
so we can't do this anymore.
What the...
Even the chairman has found out?
What's the matter?
I ended up in this mess because of Mr. Dong, that jerk.
Because of Mr. Dong? What is going on?
I think Mr. Dong was the one who took the photo of me and Ms. Choi...
and ratted us out.
I knew something was up from the way he was staring at me earlier.
Why would Mr. Dong do such a thing?
What do you think?
It's because I told Mi Rae about seeing him with another woman.
He's warning me.
That man really scares me.
Mi Rae must be stressed out all alone because of it.
That's true. It must be hard for Ms. Ok...
to tell her family how she really feels.
Exactly.
I can't digest what I ate earlier.
Shall I step out and pick up some soda for you?
Would you do that for me? You're the best.
I'll be right back.
Eun Sang Soo, you can't afford to worry about others now.
You've lost your chance to win over the chairman and even the president.
I've got nobody now.
I'm sorry, Haeng Bok.
The happier I feel with Kyu Sun,
I feel guiltier when I think of you.
Doo Ho, you're here.
Hey.
Are you stepping out?
Yes, to pick up some soda.
Sang Soo has indigestion.
Oh, right. Your father told me that Hwang Dong Food is helping you...
look for Jan Di's mother.
I hope to hear some good news.
You know, Doo Ho.
How about we look for your daughter too?
What did you just say?
Well, you don't seem to be in touch with your daughter at all.
Doo Ho.
If you want to find your daughter, just let me know.
Hwang Dong Food is accepting applications from missing persons' families.
Thanks for your concern, Kang San.
But I don't even have the right to look for my daughter.
Anyway, get going.
All right, then.
Guys.
Ye Ju and Jan Di aren't in their rooms.
- Goodness, Mother. - Yes.
Hwang Dong Food is launching their missing persons campaign today.
That's right! They must've left the house early to buy those products.
Jan Di has been waiting for this day, Mother.
Right. I really hope we can find Sun Ju this time.
Dad, Grandma! We're home.
- Yes. - Yes, sweetie pie.
Mom and my brothers-in-law. Look forward to it.
Jan Di, show them the products.
Okay. Dad, Grandma. Look at this.
Hwang Dong Food's products with the information on Mom are really here.
(Missing Persons Awareness Campaign, Lee Sun Ju)
(Dried Pollack Hangover Soup)
Finally, it's out.
You can find these products at every convenience store in the area,
and they're displayed at the most prominent spot.
Most importantly, they're all popular products,
so many people will see it.
There's more, Ye Ju.
The company will also launch a large-scale campaign...
to help look for the missing persons.
Really?
Then we'll soon be able to find out where Sun Ju is.
Mother. During the campaign,
the planning team will run a temporary call center...
to answer all the phone calls about the missing persons.
Is that really true?
Yes, of course. I'm in charge of the call center.
Kang San, I'll carefully pick out highly credible tip-offs...
and hand them over to you right away.
Thanks, Sang Soo.
Well, if you want to thank me,
how about you give me some cash to express your gratitude?
All right, Sang Soo.
Mom. Since the image of how she'd look now is placed right beside the photo,
people will recognize her easily. What do you think?
Yes, you're right.
A decade has passed,
so my second daughter would probably look like this now.
Kang San. You said this was Mi Rae's idea, right?
Yes, that's right.
I knew it. Ms. Ok is the best.
Mom's so pretty.
- Isn't she really beautiful? - Yes, she really is.
I'm heading out now.
You're leaving later than usual.
Oh, am I?
Mi Rae, can we have a quick talk?
Sure. What is it, Mom?
You're sure everything's okay between you and Ju Hyuk, right?
What? Why do you ask?
It's been a while since the last time he took you out on a date,
and he hasn't been visiting us at all.
Ju Hyuk is very busy because of the new instant porridge products.
And I've been busy too.
Really? There's nothing else going on, right?
Yes, of course. I'm going to work, Mom.
All right. Have a good day.
You too, Mom.
See you later, Soo Ji.
See you later.
Mother.
Something must be up between the two of them, don't you think?
You can't be happy every day when you're in a relationship.
Every couple fights once in a while.
You know...
Don't you think it's because Ju Hyuk has another woman?
That's enough, Soo Ji. Mi Rae said it wasn't true.
Mother, if you end up regretting not believing me later on,
I can't help you then.
I don't believe Mi Rae.
(Sun Bakery, Hong Do's Side Dishes)
My gosh. It smells so sweet.
The sweet juice is dripping right now.
Here, Doo Ho.
Open wide.
It's okay. I'm good.
Come on! We're close enough now. Don't be shy.
Here, open wide.
No, it's not that. I don't eat peaches.
My gosh. Why not? It's so good.
Are you allergic to peaches?
No, not me. But my daughter was.
I didn't want to eat it alone knowing my daughter couldn't eat it.
So I always avoided eating it,
and it's become a habit.
What? You said you hadn't seen her for over 20 years.
And you still don't eat peaches?
That's right.
You can't live with your daughter whom you love so much.
You must miss her a lot.
Yes, I do.
(Sun Bakery)
I'm here, Auntie Kyu Sun!
Oh. Hello, Ms. Ok.
What brings you by so early?
I wanted to pick up some snacks for my students on my way to work.
How have you been?
We've been well, of course.
That's right. I'm glad you're here. Have some peach, Mi Rae.
My gosh. It's so sweet.
What's wrong, Mi Rae?
I'm really sorry.
I can't eat peaches. I'm allergic.
You were allergic to peaches?
Oh, you didn't know?
No, I had no idea.
Have you always been allergic to peaches since you were little?
It was way worse when I was younger.
It's gotten a lot better.
- Oh, Mr. Kim. - Yes.
I really enjoyed the omija tea.
I love sweet and tart things.
My gosh, really? So does Doo Ho.
I don't like it because it's too sour for me,
but he even loves dishes like seaweed salad with vinegar.
What? Really? I love it too.
Gosh, I should finish this then.
It's so good.
(Hwang Dong Food)
Congrats...
Congratulations, everyone!
- Hello, Mr. Choi. - Hello.
You're here.
Oh, I heard the news.
Mr. Dong hit a home run!
What? A home run?
Mr. Dong, did you win the lottery or something?
No. I have no interest in such things at all.
No, it's not that.
Thanks to Mr. Dong Ju Hyuk here, a big distribution company in the US...
placed an order for our instant porridges.
Mr. Dong, you're so amazing.
You're Hwang Dong Food's treasure and precious asset
Gosh, Mr. Choi. We haven't even officially reported it to the higher-ups yet.
Anyway, how did you manage to land the contract?
Tell us your secret.
When I was at the US branch, I befriended the CEO of that company.
Anyway, thanks to Mr. Dong,
my grandfather... I mean, I can now proudly face the chairman.
Mr. Ok. The missing persons campaign has improved the company's image,
and Mr. Dong has landed a huge contract.
How about a team dinner this evening? It's been too long.
- Shall we? - Yes, I'm in.
Me too. I'm all for it.
Of course, no one will say no to free food.
All right. I'll make a reservation right away, Mr. Ok.
Mr. Eun, are you joining us too?
Pardon me? You don't want me to join you guys?
Well, you normally prefer...
to eat alone in the office.
That's just because I like to focus on work.
Mr. Eun, it looks like you've fallen out of favor with Mr. Ok.
Gosh.
(Dried Pollack Hangover Soup)
It turned out great, sir.
Have we received any tip-offs?
No, not yet.
It was just launched. It's too soon to expect calls.
This was your idea, so I hope the campaign is successful.
Thank you, sir.
I'll leave you two to talk.
All right.
What is this?
Jae Hyun's planning team...
has landed a huge deal.
They landed a pre-order for our instant porridge products?
A company in the US placed the order.
I bet Ju Hyuk pulled this off.
Yes, sir.
He sure is very competent.
About Ju Hyuk and Mi Rae, do you plan to leave them be without intervening?
Everyone in the industry already knows that they're dating.
Yes, that's true.
If they keep putting off their wedding,
people will start gossiping about them.
President Dong.
This report isn't the reason why you're here.
I bet you came to tell me this.
Sir. If Ju Hyuk marries Mi Rae, builds a stable family with her,
and assists Jae Hyun,
I'm sure it'll help the company too.
Please keep this in mind.
Did you have a good meeting with my father?
Yes.
Kyu Chul, have you heard anything from Ju Hyuk?
Mi Rae denies it,
but I think they're having some problems these days.
Ju Hyuk has been very busy landing a contract...
for our instant porridges. I bet that's why.
It was an important contract.
Oh, really?
That said, Chan Ran...
How about we tell them to get married as soon as possible?
What?
If they're busy and don't see each other often,
they'll grow apart.
So wouldn't it be better for them to just get married right away?
I've already told your father about it.
If my father's okay with it,
I want them to get married this fall.
Why wait until the fall?
They should get married as soon as they have his permission.
What do you say?
(Horang Art Academy)
This is painful.
I really am hurting.
I just want to take off. I really do.
Ho Rang!
Did you see this?
It's Sun Ju.
If this photo gets distributed all over the country,
Sun Ju will show up soon, right?
The moment that happens, my dream will be shattered.
Be honest. You don't want Sun Ju to show up, right?
Hey, I'm not that evil.
To tell you the truth, I do feel conflicted.
What about you? How do you feel?
Me? Well...
I don't know what to say.
Gosh, this is really hard.
Ms. Jang.
(Horang Art Academy)
I've finished my afternoon classes.
Okay, thank you.
Oh, about Seo Yeon and the kids.
They called and canceled the group class in the evening.
So you can call it a day, Ms. Ok.
Okay. What about you, Ms. Jang?
I'll tidy up, so you can get going.
Okay, thank you. I'll be off, then.
Bye.
Father.
Kyu Chul told you earlier that we should let the kids...
get married as soon as possible, right?
Yes.
What are you planning to do, Father?
It does look like Ju Hyuk has been helping Jae Hyun.
Father, I have a favor to ask.
When you're making your decision,
please only think of Ju Hyuk as Mi Rae's husband-to-be.
You're too naive.
Hwang Dong Food and the future of the family depend on their marriage.
It is practically a marriage of convenience.
A marriage of convenience? What do you mean?
They fell in love because they truly cared for each other.
Why do you think President Dong wants them to get married soon?
Because Mi Rae is the granddaughter of Hwang Dong Food's chairman,
he's dying to marry his son off to her.
Yes, come in.
Sir, it's time to take your medicine.
Right, yes. Thank you.
- Here, sir. - Thanks.
Mr. Geum.
Have you received any calls about your wife today?
I did receive a few calls,
but the information didn't sound credible, ma'am.
What are you waiting for? Answer it.
Yes, sir.
Hello?
I beg your pardon?
You know Sun Ju?
It's about Jae Hyun.
Do you think he really needs Dong Ju Hyuk's help?
Considering the current situation...
Ju Hyuk, I'll hang up first.
Gosh. Mr. Dong, it's you.
- Wait, Mr. Dong. - What is it?
Mr. Geum, is something the matter?
I got a call from someone who knows Jan Di's mom.
I'll go with you.
You'll come with me?
