(Episode 39)
Vice President Han?
So Won.
What are you doing here?
What about you? What brings you here?
I'm just here to meet someone I know.
Well, are you here to meet someone?
I'm here for work.
I'll get going. I'll see you later.
Okay.
I guess he left already.
That must've been Eun Hye's hubby.
So you're saying you don't remember his face at all, right?
Well, I might recognize him if I see him.
(35R 6649)
- It was that man. - Sorry?
I think he looked like the man who just went into the building.
- Are you sure? - Yes.
Yes.
Prosecutor Choi, where are you?
The victim just arrived. You should be here for the interview.
Where did the time go?
Okay, I'll be on my way.
How could she be allergic to the exact same thing as me?
No, something feels odd. I should look into it.
It'll be a nuisance to run into Ms. Song.
Ha Eun.
- Hello, Ms. Hwang. - Where are you going?
The stationery store, to pick up colored papers.
I got you a gift.
What is it?
- What do you think? - Wow, it's pretty.
I'll put it on you.
Ouch!
Why are you trying to pluck my hair?
No, I wasn't. I was just trying to put the hairband on you.
I'm sorry. Did it hurt?
- Shall we go get some ice cream? - No.
My grandma told me not to go anywhere with you.
She told me not to even say hello to you.
I don't need this.
Grandma. Grandma!
- Grandma, Grandma. - Yes.
Ms. Hwang is here again. I ran into her right outside the house.
What?
Why is that sly wench here again?
She's already gone. That witch.
The first step has been completed.
We'll get started with the second step tomorrow.
Good.
By the way, what's wrong?
Pardon? What do you mean?
You seem to have a lot on your mind.
No, I'm fine.
Did you meet the person you were supposed to meet?
No, I didn't.
Who is it?
Just someone...
who I have to meet, at least once.
Sir.
I have to secure investments, and I need your support.
You can't just quit like this.
I'd like to recommend a highly competent guy as my successor.
Who is it?
There he is. Hey.
Hello, sir.
Hi. This is the guy I was telling you about.
Choi Ho Jin, a prosecutor at the Central Prosecutors' Office.
It's nice to meet you. I'm Choi Ho Jin.
Hello.
You two went to the same university.
- Is that right? - Yes.
It's an honor to meet you.
He can help you when you meet with the investor.
He's fluent in Italian.
I see.
That little girl is so clever.
This isn't good. I should try something else.
Eun Hye, that man must've been your hubby, right?
I really wanted to meet him, but we missed each other again.
I'm sure he still loves you and misses you.
- Did you brush your teeth well? - Yes.
Mom, Ms. Hwang came by again earlier today.
Again?
And? What did she say to you?
She got me a hairband. But while putting it on me,
she kept trying to pull my hair out.
What? So what happened?
I stopped her and gave back the hairband as well.
Did you? Good.
Hwang Yeon Su, what are you thinking?
The hairband was so pretty though.
I'll buy you a nicer one later.
Ha Eun, if you see her again...
I know. Grandma trained me up.
I'll never follow her.
- Good. - But I find it strange.
Why do I have to avoid her?
Both Grandma and you told me the same thing.
Did you two fight with Ms. Hwang?
- That's because... - I guess you did.
Okay. I'm going to bed.
All right.
I should do something about Yeon Su.
All right. Attention, everyone.
So Won, who joined the company as a part-timer,
is now a contract employee as of today.
Pardon? Really?
My gosh, congratulations.
Seriously, congratulations. So Won, you rock!
It's such great news. You've been working so hard.
I really wasn't expecting this.
My gosh, thank you so much.
I owe it all to you. Thank you very much.
Thank you for all your hard work, So Won.
Congratulations. You'll have to work even harder from now on.
Okay.
Ms. Hwang, you should congratulate her too.
Congratulations.
Yes, thank you.
(Vice President Han Jae Hyuk)
Come in.
Congratulations, So Won.
Thank you.
Thank you for all the hard work you've done for the company.
You're a contract employee now,
but keep up the good work so that you can get a permanent role soon.
I wouldn't even dream of that.
I'm grateful that I managed to come this far without getting fired.
I can't believe I'm a contract employee now. I'm over the moon.
You certainly deserve it.
Keep up the good work.
I should work even harder.
I'm so excited. This means my pay will go up too, right?
I guess this is why everyone works.
Before this job, I only worked at my mom's fabric shop.
This is my first office job.
Ms. Song will be happy to hear the news.
Yes, sure thing.
I should throw a party at Ms. Han's burger shop and celebrate.
A party? I'll take care of the expenses.
It's to celebrate my promotion, so everything will be on me.
She's now a contract employee?
Gosh, I'm speechless.
She needs to get fired. And what? She's a contract employee now?
She's pretty capable.
And she's good at handling crises.
And most importantly, she knows a lot about fabrics.
Still, she never studied abroad,
and she's certainly underqualified.
I also don't like that she doesn't know her place.
I also can't stand how she spends so much time with Jae Hyuk.
Mom.
Why are you getting so worked up?
It's not like I should be worried about her.
That's true.
Who cares whether or not she's a contract employee now?
Just focus on securing the investment for now.
You must make it happen, okay?
Okay.
You're acting like you own the company now.
I don't care about my position.
I didn't join the company to fulfill my ambition.
Then why did you join Noyu?
Tell me the truth.
Why did you join this company?
And why are you so determined to stay?
What about you? What is your real reason for joining Noyu?
- What? - I just don't understand why...
you have to win the competition, using such an underhanded trick.
I mean, you're already pretty successful.
Why did you do such a thing?
What are you really after?
I don't know what it is,
but don't use such an underhanded trick ever again.
"Underhanded trick"? Are you done?
Why? Am I wrong?
Reflect on what you did.
You don't even know what wrong you did.
What's wrong with what I did?
How could you be like this?
You're utterly shameless. You can't get any lower than this.
What?
What are you doing?
It's nothing.
You were about to hit your subordinate. You call that nothing?
I don't think you have the right to do this.
So Won is my employee, and she's on my team.
Do not mistreat her in any way.
Your mother always gets so angry when talking about Ms. Hwang.
Is there something that I don't know?
That looked quite tense.
Yes.
We don't exactly have an amicable relationship.
I heard she used to be like a member of your family. What happened?
Not sure.
I don't know at what point things started to go wrong as well.
I wondered how you could be so arrogant, and I now know why.
It must be nice to have his support.
That's enough. I don't want to argue with you anymore.
Same here.
Hey, Ho Jin.
Mom probably told you about my promotion already.
Yes.
Let's have a family dinner at a restaurant somewhere tonight.
I got promoted, so it'll be my treat.
Yes, tell Mom.
Okay.
It's nice to be close to the VP of the company.
You got promoted right away.
Mom, please.
It wasn't me.
Ms. Song, please. Noyu isn't a corner store.
The HR team makes all decisions regarding promotions.
Mom, does it mean you have a high position now?
What?
No.
It just means that I now have to work even harder.
I see.
Congratulations. You're really impressive, So Won.
Thanks.
Our vice president worked so hard today, as he always does.
Open up.
Oh, I'll eat it on my own.
Open up.
Just eat it. You're embarrassing her.
Are you two really getting married?
That'd be amazing. She even proposed to him, you know.
If he's a decent man, he has to marry her...
now that he's accepted that expensive watch.
- I didn't accept... - Do it sooner than later.
Before she gets any older.
You guys should hurry if you want a kid.
Where will you live after you get married?
I'll happily look after your baby. Just pay me, and I'll do it.
What are you talking about?
Mom, stop it.
What? Both of them are busy.
Who's going to look after the kid?
It's not like the hammer witch will do it for them.
Cake, you said both of your parents passed away.
Just get married already.
I really think you two are meant to be.
Gosh, how could I marry my nephew...
- "Nephew"? - Your nephew?
I clearly heard you say "nephew".
I guess I have no choice. I'll just tell you.
I'm actually Jae Hyuk's aunt.
I'm his aunt, and he's my nephew.
What?
Jae Hyuk, I'm Aunt Yu Jin.
You don't remember me?
Aunt Yu Jin...
Aunt Yu Jin?
Ms. Song is at the shop,
so there may not be anyone at home now.
Here, take my key.
You're really Aunt Yu Jin?
Yes, that's right.
You were very young back then, so you probably don't remember me.
We exchanged letters occasionally back when I was in France.
Yes, you're right.
Do you remember me now?
I can't believe this. Why didn't you tell me all this time?
Gosh, I'm speechless.
What is going on?
Why didn't you tell us?
At first, I just didn't want things to get awkward at work.
But then, I thought it was fun to see you guys getting the wrong idea.
I had no idea. You totally fooled me.
My goodness. How could you fool me like this?
I'm sorry. I just found it so funny.
What's so funny about it?
Why are you laughing?
What?
Well, it's funny. She totally fooled all of us.
Does that mean Mr. Get Out has to call you "Aunt" from now on?
Yes, he should.
"Aunt" at home, and "Ms. Han" at work.
So if Chairman Han is your brother,
that means you're the hammer witch's sister-in-law.
My gosh, it's so complicated.
Hold on. You're Chairman Han's sister, and you're his son.
That means you're both rich.
Right? How bizarre.
Our house will be on a TV show or something at this rate.
Then does Dad know about it too?
He just kept it from me?
I told him not to tell you.
Ms. Song, you were pretty easy to fool.
But I can't believe how gullible you are, So Won.
When you asked me if we were actually getting married,
I almost died trying not to laugh.
You're all so gullible.
This is why I love this family.
Will you accept my love now, my dear nephew?
Yes, Aunt Yu Jin.
My goodness.
Gosh.
Oh, boy.
It'd be nice to eat here when I don't want to cook.
- I have to go and do some work. - Come home early and get some rest.
I have a team dinner. I'll see you guys later at home.
- Okay, thanks for the food. - Thank you for the food!
- See you later. - See you guys at home!
Please have a seat.
Hello. I'm Choi Ho Jin, and I'll be your interpreter today.
Hello.
I'm Han Min Hyuk.
I heard you own 100 shopping malls all over the world.
It's truly impressive. I'm honored to meet you in person.
He thinks it's truly impressive that you have 100 shopping malls...
all over the world, and he's honored to meet you in person.
The honor is mine. I'm delighted to meet you,
Director Han Min Hyuk of Noyu Group.
He said that he's honored to meet you, Mr. Han.
I guess only handsome men work at Noyu.
He said only handsome men work at Noyu.
Thank you.
This is our business proposal.
Please review it and let us know.
This is Noyu's business proposal.
Let us know what you think.
I'm so glad I could have you by my side today. Thank you.
No problem.
Could I ask for your help again...
when I'm drafting the investment agreement?
Of course, anytime.
(Prosecutor Choi Ho Jin, Central District Prosecutors' Office)
(Director of Strategy Han Min Hyuk, Noyu Fashion)
I'm home.
Home sweet home!
My room!
My pillow. There's my pillow.
I should lie down.
He's at it again.
Peter.
There he goes again.
Ms. Song!
Ms. Song.
The furnace must be broken.
My feet are so cold.
It's cold. I'm freezing.
Do it properly, you fool.
Cover me with the blanket. Goodness.
What are you doing here? It's cold. Your face will be paralyzed.
It's you, the cutie-pie prosecutor.
Gosh, you reek of alcohol.
I need to sober up.
Wake up. Sober up!
That sobered me up a little.
Why did you drink so much?
I was only going to have one drink with my team members, but...
How much did you drink?
You were lying down there thinking it was your room.
Well, I'm just so happy today.
Your entire family gathered at my burger shop,
and we laughed and chatted together.
To tell you the truth,
I was very lonely when I was in France.
Here, not a day goes by without some kind of trouble,
and it's quite hectic.
But I'm fond of everyone that lives here.
And my favorite of them all is...
It's you, my cutie-pie prosecutor.
Goodness.
Be honest with me.
You were relieved to find out that I'm Jae Hyuk's aunt, right?
What?
I know how you feel, so don't even try to play dumb.
Feel free to make a move on me now. Got it?
Just go to bed.
My cutie-pie prosecutor is going to bed.
Then I should go to bed too.
Good night, my cutie-pie prosecutor.
Tomorrow, I can find out who Ha Eun really is.
- Ha Eun. - Mom.
Hi, Ha Eun.
Ha Eun, come to Mommy.
Mom.
My dear daughter, come with me.
Okay.
Ha Eun.
Ha Eun. No.
Ha Eun, Ha Eun!
Ha Eun!
No, Ha Eun.
Ha Eun, Ha Eun.
Ha Eun, Ha Eun!
Mom.
Yes.
Ha Eun.
Did you have a bad dream, Mom?
Gosh, Ha Eun.
Ha Eun.
I can no longer tease Cake and Vice President Han.
Ms. Song, please. I guess you had too much fun teasing us.
My cutie-pie prosecutor, I must've made you very upset.
Jae Hyuk is my nephew.
You're the one I love.
Shush! Stop spewing total nonsense and just eat your food.
Ha Eun, don't go anywhere. Don't leave me, okay?
Why aren't you eating? You look all spaced out.
You should eat quickly and go to work.
What? Right, okay.
Mom, you shouldn't be late for work. Eat quickly.
What? Okay. I always listen to you, Ha Eun.
I'll finish my food quickly.
Will you accept my gift this time?
Still, this is too much.
When I was little, I had a character watch, which I loved.
Your mom was the one who bought me that watch.
I'm giving you this in return for the gift I received from her.
Your mom is no longer with us,
so I got you a gift instead.
So just accept it. Please?
Okay. I'll accept it, then.
Aunt Yu Jin.
We're all ready for the new material collection.
And we'll proceed with the launch as planned.
All right, good work.
Functionality-wise, they're all superb,
so I'm excited to see how the buyers will respond.
Yes.
I found out yesterday that Kate is Aunt Yu Jin.
Oh, I guess Yu Jin told you.
Yes.
You probably don't know, but she took great care of you.
Especially because you two live together.
- Right. - Be good to her.
I'm not just saying this because she's my sister.
She looks like a free spirit,
but she's actually grounded and very thoughtful.
She'll help you out a lot.
Okay.
This came for you.
You weren't here, so I went to the lobby and picked it up for you.
(DNA Parentage Test Report, Hwang Yeon Su, Choi Ha Eun)
(Test Result)
(Bad Love)
You'll quit being a prosecutor?
Why all of a sudden?
We must uncover the truth behind the accident.
I should enter the tiger's den to catch the tiger.
Thanks to you, I could become a prosecutor,
so I thought I should tell you.
What do you plan to do after quitting?
You'll find out soon enough.
I'm speechless.
Choi So Won, brace yourself.
Choi So Won has a kid?
- Move out of that house at once. - I don't want to.
If you're going to keep this up,
I'll have to do something about Choi So Won.
Fire her and help her find another job.
Fire So Won? Why?
