Seo Jung Bae.
Seo Jung Bae?
Right.
He's the detective who came by my house a little while ago.
From what I've investigated,
it looks like he engaged in some corrupt deeds...
while working on Noyu's cases.
That's why I've been after him.
"Corrupt deeds"? What exactly do you mean by that?
That's...
I'll have to look into it more to find out the details.
Director Park and Min Hyuk, you two didn't know about this?
What have you been doing?
You didn't even know what was really going on.
I can't believe you made such a fuss over this false article.
- The thing is... - Min Hyuk.
When the other scandal broke out,
you said you'd trust Mr. Choi no matter what.
Why did you react so recklessly this time?
I'm sorry.
Find the journalist who wrote this false article immediately...
and make sure a correction is published, okay?
Yes, sir.
I should get changed quickly.
What are you doing here?
Well... Ms. Han.
What on earth are you doing?
The thing is, I got mugged,
so all my cash and credit cards are gone.
So you sneaked in here like a rat to steal clothes?
Why bother? What you're wearing now suits you perfectly.
If you take anything from our office,
I'll report you for theft, so leave immediately.
- Why must you be so harsh on me? - I'm being harsh?
You hit my nephew with your car and ran off,
so you should've been prepared for this.
I told you that it wasn't intentional.
Whether it was intentional or not, you nearly killed him.
That is considered attempted murder. Do you realize that?
The security office, right? Can you send someone up?
A thief broke in.
I'll leave. I'm leaving.
I read the article about Choi Ho Jin. What's going on?
I asked you what is going on.
Is it true that he's been gambling habitually?
Will he get fired?
I made a complete fool of myself.
I totally fell for the trap that jerk had set up.
Happy now?
What?
Stop being nosy and use the time to prepare for the lawsuit.
We shouldn't waste our energy on the divorce lawsuit.
We must get rid of Choi Ho Jin first.
Don't you know what our priority should be now?
I will deal with Choi Ho Jin.
And look at yourself.
How could you come here looking like that?
Are you deliberately trying to humiliate me or what?
So please let me come home...
so that you won't have to deal with even more humiliation.
Until you sign the divorce papers,
I won't even let you see me.
Leave.
Get out!
Seo Jung Bae?
But why was Mr. Choi after him?
That's what I'm wondering too.
Come in.
My gosh, what on earth are you wearing?
Mother, will you really not do anything about this?
Min Hyuk wants to push ahead with the divorce lawsuit.
I can't believe you came here looking like that.
Don't you know my situation?
By the way, what exactly Choi Ho Jin do to Min Hyuk?
It's none of your business.
You shouldn't underestimate him.
Just look at some of the things he's done to me and Min Hyuk.
Why must you show up like this and upset me even more?
- Leave at once. - See?
Everything is going astray because I'm not there to help.
Things were even worse when you were around.
If Min Hyuk keeps being stubborn,
I'll go public with everything. I won't go down alone.
Hwang Yeon Su!
I need to survive too. I can't give you much time.
Gosh, my head hurts.
Hey, Jae Hyuk. I just sent you an address.
You should visit that laboratory.
I told them you're developing fabric for functional sleepwear,
and they're interested.
Yes, all right.
Ms. Han, is Mr. Han working on a sleepwear line?
Yes, he and So Won are working very hard at the moment.
They'll make samples as soon as they do some testing at the lab.
I hope it goes well so that he can come back to Noyu.
Me too. It feels so empty without him and So Won.
Ms. Han, I'm going to the reference room.
Okay.
By the way, Soo Ho is late.
He called earlier and said he had to visit one more factory.
Everyone is swamped.
But it's not like we can hire new people right away.
I should take a nap here.
Ms. Hwang!
What brings you here?
Are you back now?
Not really.
I heard you're busy these days.
We've been swamped since you and So Won left.
How have you been?
You don't seem to be doing too well.
Well, you know.
I've been pretty busy too.
I guess everyone's busy even after leaving the company.
So Won is busy too.
What is So Won working on?
Don't you know that she's working on a functional sleepwear line?
Functional sleepwear?
I heard they're on the lookout for a lab to do their testing.
Well, I don't know any details.
I'm busy. I have to go.
Functional sleepwear?
(Vice President Han Min Hyuk)
Come in.
You're really distracting me.
Why must you keep barging into my office?
I'll just say one thing and leave.
Han Jae Hyuk and Choi So Won.
Don't you want to know what they're up to?
I heard they're developing functional sleepwear.
- Functional sleepwear? - Yes.
I don't know the details,
but it sounds like they're looking for a lab.
So?
If you thought you could change my mind...
by getting me this information, you were wrong.
- Min Hyuk. - Leave at once.
You'll need my help going forward.
No, I won't.
I just need you to sign the divorce papers. That's it.
Do you think I'll just sit back and watch you do this to me?
Let the messy war begin, then.
(Vice President Han Min Hyuk)
Hello, it's me.
Hello.
Ms. Han at Noyu sent me here.
I'm sorry.
We need to use the machine unexpectedly, so we can't help you.
Sir, please help me out.
I apologize.
Sir. Wait, sir!
Sir.
The companies are hounding us for late payments.
What?
Because of the land purchase...
and factory expansion for the deal with the home shopping network,
we're under financial strain at the moment.
And our stock price keeps dropping too.
I heard the company is under severe financial strain.
Yes, because of the home shopping deal falling through.
This is all Choi Ho Jin's fault.
What should we do about that jerk?
We could be stirring up a hornet's nest,
so we must not do anything rash.
I heard Jae Hyuk and So Won are developing functional sleepwear.
Jae Hyuk?
So the thing he was working on was...
It might do pretty well.
They got fired, for goodness' sake. They should just lie low.
Look at them doing whatever it takes to get their jobs back.
By the way, how did you find out?
- Yeon Su told me. - Yeon Su?
Goodness, she's a pro at obtaining and spreading information.
You need to stop them now.
I already took care of it. I called the Head of Research at the lab.
Good.
You must not let their project succeed.
We suffered tremendous losses because of the home shopping deal.
What if they succeed?
Don't worry.
I will never let that happen.
The subcontractors are harassing us, demanding payments.
They're worried that we're trying not to pay them.
The company must be struggling financially.
How's Jae Hyuk doing?
You're actually curious?
He's working on developing something,
but all the labs he's contacted turned him down.
I feel so bad for him.
To me, it looks like a great project.
Both Jae Hyuk and So Won are working very hard to make up...
for all the losses from the home shopping deal falling through.
Well, that being said...
Can you please forgive them now, Tae Seok?
No, I can't.
They deceived me. The more I think about it, the angrier I get.
They've both been extremely distressed about it.
Think about how they must've felt, having to keep it from you.
My gosh, I'm just speechless.
He told me that he'd help you guys out,
but he suddenly changed his word.
I wonder what happened.
I'm utterly baffled.
I totally lashed out at him.
Someone is trying to stop them.
Who?
Those who don't want So Won and Jae Hyuk to come back.
Don't tell me it's Min Hyuk.
This isn't the time for an internal feud.
Father must be deeply concerned.
Yes, of course. Tae Seok looks so weary these days.
I wanted your project to go well...
so that Tae Seok could feel better soon,
but the lab I know wouldn't work out.
Everyone seems so swamped at the moment.
- Jae Hyuk. - Hey.
I found a lab.
- Really? - My gosh, I'm so relieved.
That's such great news.
Which lab?
My friend's acquaintance works there.
I told them about our situation, and they said they'd help us out.
Jae Hyuk, why don't you...
keep everything about the research confidential for now?
Yes, I was planning to do that anyway.
I think someone is deliberately trying to get in our way.
Yes, you should go public with it when you have the results.
So Won, let's start making samples as soon as we have the results.
I don't know much about this industry.
Will people want to buy functional sleepwear?
When kimchi refrigerators first came out, people scoffed at them.
Everyone was like, "Who'd buy a fridge just for kimchi?"
But now, every household has one.
You're right.
We'll be able to breathe once we get it into department stores.
Then we can rebuild trust with the companies we work with.
Well done, Jae Hyuk.
I'll go wash up.
I should head in too.
I feel like this is my fault, so I feel bad.
What can we do?
Let's just put our strengths together and overcome this crisis.
All right. I'll do everything I can to help you and Jae Hyuk.
Okay. Oh, how come Mom isn't home yet?
I wonder too.
Why are you eating like a bird?
Because of the kids?
Or is it because of the company?
Give me some water.
Sir.
If you're here to talk about that, please leave.
I fully understand how flabbergasted and furious...
you must be.
If that is the case,
how could you give them the go-ahead to get married...
while completely deceiving me?
Please forgive me.
But you see,
my heart utterly broke into pieces when I had to accept it.
Both of my daughters with the same guy...
How do you think I must've felt when I had to come to terms...
with something so crazy?
I don't even think...
I can face my elder daughter when I die.
What else could I have done though?
They said they couldn't live without one another.
They love each other very much.
If someone must be punished,
I'll take it all on.
So please forgive them.
You should leave.
How could you show up here knowing that the company is in turmoil now?
You're utterly slow-witted and shameless.
That's why Jae Hyuk and So Won should return to the company.
Forget it.
Don't even dream that they can set foot in here again.
Broken glass can't be put together.
Tae Seok will never forgive them.
Hey, So Won. Oh, that?
I'm sorry. I have to go in a meeting now.
No, don't bother. You don't need to come all the way here.
I'll send Ms. Ko.
Okay.
- Ms. Ko. - Yes?
- Are you going to the store later? - I'm actually heading out now.
Then can you stop by So Won's place on the way...
and drop this off for her?
Her place is on the way to the store.
This is perfect. I have to meet her anyway...
to discuss fabric development.
- All right then. Have a nice day. - You too.
Excuse me.
Can I help you?
Does Choi So Won live here?
She's my daughter.
Hello, I'm So Won's co-worker in the design team.
My name is Ko Eun Hee.
Oh, I see. Nice to meet you.
Ms. Ko? Is she the one who had the blind date with Ho Jin?
So Won, come out for a minute.
What's up?
My gosh!
- Ms. Ko. - Hi, So Won.
Here, Ms. Han asked me to drop this off for you.
- Thank you, Ms. Ko. - No problem at all.
- So Won, get the door for me. - Okay.
Here, try this.
My gosh, thank you.
Why are you staring at me?
Well, I was just thinking you seem so friendly and nice.
My gosh.
To tell you the truth,
I hear that wherever I go.
Thank you for this.
No problem.
Thank you so much for coming all the way here, Ms. Ko.
No problem. Keep up the good work. I'm off.
Oh, tell Mr. Han that I said hello.
- You should go back inside. - Okay.
- Get going, then. - Bye.
Mr. Choi!
Ms. Ko, what are you doing here?
Ms. Han sent me here on an errand.
I had to drop something off for So Won.
By the way, what brings you here?
Oh, well...
There's something I need to get Mr. Han's approval on urgently.
But he's no longer with the company. How can he approve things?
What I meant was...
I had to get his approval on something but never did.
Oh, I see.
But he's not home at the moment.
Really?
You'll go back to the office, right? Let's go together.
No, I'll wait for him here and head back after I see him.
He'll be home late.
Let's just go back together.
We can have some coffee on the way.
No, I have to see him today.
Let's just go back to the office together.
Well, Ms. Ko.
I have to get his approval on it today,
so let's have coffee together another time.
Okay. Then I'll get going.
For goodness' sake.
Ms. Ko, did you give the document to So Won?
Yes, I did.
Why are you in such a good mood?
When I was at So Won's place,
I unexpectedly ran into Mr. Choi.
- Mr. Choi? - That's right.
He said he needed to see Mr. Han to get his approval on something.
I said to him that he should head back to the office with me,
but he said he wanted to wait for Mr. Han.
Then he suddenly held my hand.
What? He held your hand?
Yes.
But how could a guy's hand be so soft?
My gosh, I'm not going to wash my hand today.
Also, So Won's mother said that I look friendly and nice.
Older ladies always love me.
Ms. Ko, I don't want you to go to So Won's place anymore.
What? Why not?
Just do as I say!
What's with her?
Oh, right.
She doesn't know that So Won and Mr. Choi are siblings.
I could've gotten myself in trouble.
(Test Result Report)
It's a success!
This is perfect.
We did it.
I was so worried about not being able to launch...
the functional sleepwear line.
Now, we'll make samples and start manufacturing them.
Okay.
This is amazing.
You worked so hard for this.
You did too, So Won.
Jae Hyuk got the testing done and is working on the samples now.
Tae Seok, you should have Jae Hyuk and So Won return to Noyu.
The company needs them.
Doesn't your heart break when you see them working so hard?
You need to support them for them to focus and get the job done.
Are you aware that the board members are gossiping...
about their sudden departure from the company?
Tae Seok, please.
This is the functional sleepwear we'll be launching.
Try it on tonight and give us a full review tomorrow morning.
This will help us fall asleep?
Yes, it'll energize you while you're sleeping.
That's so cool. Where's Ha Eun's?
She's already sleeping in it.
Already? She went to bed early today.
They're saying it's good for us, so let's try it on.
Does it help you snore less too?
If it can help messy sleepers, it'll be good for Jae Hyuk.
What?
Jae Hyuk isn't a messy sleeper.
That's right. We hold each other like this when we sleep.
They say only losers get jealous. I guess I lost again.
Oh, right. About Ms. Ko who came by yesterday...
She seemed very friendly and nice.
What do you guys think about setting her up with Ho Jin?
What do you say?
Ms. Song.
I told you that she doesn't have a good personality.
What are you talking about?
She was very friendly and personable.
That's all fake.
Mom, she's not my type.
See? He says that she's not his type.
Then what's your type? What kind of woman are you attracted to?
Why are you all quiet?
What kind of woman do you like?
I need to know so that I can pick out someone for you.
Pick out someone? You're talking as if women are ice cream or something.
I'm tired.
How come he's not interested in dating at all?
Gosh, I'm upset.
Your dad is drinking all by himself now.
How pitiful.
Right, I get it. He must be so distressed.
He had to kick out his son and daughters-in-law,
and the company is in turmoil.
Min Hyuk.
Getting a divorce won't solve all your problems.
Even if you must divorce her, now's not the time.
Wait until you have more power. It still wouldn't be late.
Whenever I think about how she deceived me,
- the anger drives me crazy. - I know.
Still, you should be patient for the sake of your future.
Think about all the things you had to do to get here.
Will you ruin everything because of Yeon Su?
We're not interested.
Sir, we need just a few minutes of your time.
We have no need for a new sleepwear line.
- Please take a look at this. - I said, we're not interested.
We totally got rid of that.
It's functional sleepwear that improves the quality of sleep.
As you can see in this graph...
The data prove that. And we...
(Sleep-inducing Sleepwear Store Launch Proposal)
Have a look.
If you see here...
Please go through this.
As you can see, the stripes...
We really need to get the line into a department store,
but we keep getting turned down.
Still, we shouldn't give up.
Keep on knocking, and the door will open.
Father will be so happy if we manage to get it into a department store.
And the company will be able to overcome the crisis as well.
We have to make sure this becomes a success.
For Father, not to be forgiven.
He must be so worried about the company,
but we can't even be there for him at the moment.
Ha Eun misses him a lot too.
And so do I.
We'll see him soon.
- So Won. - Yes.
I made some gimbap for you guys.
Eat it when you get hungry. Don't skip meals.
Okay. Thanks, Mom.
- Thank you, Mother. - No problem.
I made plenty, so eat as much as you want and cheer up,
my dear son-in-law and daughter.
- Will do. - All right, get going.
- See you later. - Yes, see you.
You two are so stubborn.
I made time for you because I felt bad about saying no again.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Here's another sample of the sleepwear.
Okay.
This isn't ordinary sleepwear.
The far-infrared rays from it...
improve blood circulation and moisture retention,
which promotes better sleep.
There isn't a lot of demand for a new sleepwear line,
and many brands are already waiting for store spaces.
Just leave this with me. I'll be in touch.
Oh, wait...
Let's try not to be disheartened.
We've reached out to every department store.
Let's eat this first.
You're right. It's too early to be disappointed.
I know the light is awaiting us at the end of this tunnel.
You should eat too.
Let's go back here tomorrow.
Okay, let's do that.
Another department store rejected their proposal.
What did I say?
They can't get into a department store with a sleepwear line.
Exactly. Are they playing house or what?
I hope they wake up and learn their place soon.
My, this feels so nice.
The soles of my feet were so sore earlier.
I'm making my beautiful wife work so hard.
I'll just visit the stores by myself from now on.
No, I can't let you do that.
We promised to always share each other's joy as well as pain.
Because we're husband and wife.
I wanted you to be happy without having to lift a finger.
I'm such an incompetent husband.
I'll actually get angry if you're going to keep talking like a loser.
All right, I'll stop.
- Just a second. - Okay.
Hello?
Pardon me?
Are you serious?
Yes. Thank you.
Yes, right. Then I'll see you tomorrow.
Okay.
What's going on? What was that about?
The department store we went to wants to sell our sleepwear line.
What? Are you serious?
Yes. They want us to bring them tomorrow.
Really? That's such amazing news!
We finally did it!
Great work!
My gosh.
(Bad Love)
When can we go see Grandpa?
- Well... - We'll visit him soon, Ha Eun.
What if your dad lets Jae Hyuk and So Won return to the company?
What did I do in my past life that I have to put up with all this?
- Thanks for this. - Give me back my clothes. Get lost.
How could you be so cruel?
You're kicking me out when you invited Jae Hyuk and So Won?
Are you scared that my project will go well?
What are you saying? Do you think I have that much time on my hands?
The company vehicle information got hacked again?
The office? No, I wasn't there.
So our tenant, Mr. Seo, was Seo Jung Bae?
