Why won't you answer?
Ms. Mun, how do you know...
How do you know my daughter-in-law's sister?
We went to the same high school.
What? The same high school?
Did you? Did you not get along?
How come things are so frigid between you?
Enjoy your reunion somewhere else.
You said that...
you two have something to say.
Say what you want to say.
Ma'am. I think I should go.
You're not going anywhere, Mun Hae Rang.
You're involved.
Do as my mother said and stay.
Involved?
What do you mean she's involved?
It seems like Ms. Mun lied to the police.
What? She lied?
She was hurt in the accident...
and she was the one in the car with Jin U,
so what nonsense are you spewing?
Do you have proof?
What proof do you have that she lied?
I have it.
I have proof that she fabricated evidence.
What?
What's in there is even sweeter.
Are you trying to bribe me now?
I don't need this money.
What's this?
What do you think you're doing?
I'm giving you a chance.
I'm not here to ask for anything.
What?
I'm sorry...
for surprising you like this.
Nonsense.
It's fine.
No one calls ahead before coming to the police.
I know,
but am I here to see the police...
or to meet the father?
Now I'm not so sure anymore.
It sounds like you're telling me to make a decision.
Well, have you?
Not yet.
It's not easy.
My own daughter's involved.
She has a gentle but injured soul...
and she's not the type to say no to people.
Her bosses must've threatened her...
Parents think that they know their children the best,
but they know nothing when it comes to their children.
What are you talking about?
Is this about my daughter?
What don't I know about?
I heard it's not that he's missing. He eloped.
With his secretary.
Mr. Gu?
I'm just talking about how most parents are.
My mom is like that...
and so is my aunt.
The visible lives of their children are what they only see.
Instead, it'd be better if they could see...
what we need to endure as well.
Living with guilt...
is harder than you realize.
Guilt?
Think about what will truly help your daughter.
Consider that after looking at the bigger picture.
I'm sorry.
All right.
There's footage from the accident site,
so I'll find the witness myself.
I will find the witness...
and I won't stop until I do.
I apologize for coming to you with a burdensome request.
I'll get going then.
The life that she needs to endure?
Guilt?
I guess 100,000 dollars sound good.
Please tell Chairwoman Hong that I said thanks.
Then now, Baek Rim is the assailant.
Cheong Ah's friend says...
he'll end it quietly if we settle with him.
If this gets out to the press, it will damage us, not him.
You don't want to let the world know about Jin U's condition.
Articles will be released in any way.
This is a matter of how the headlines are worded.
"Vice Chairman Do Jin U of Inter Market..."
"Hits a Man with His Sports Car."
"A Man Dozes off While Driving..."
"and Puts Vice Chairman Do in Serious Condition."
It's way different.
My son's life and the future of Inter Market...
depend on what's written in those articles.
What do you think I should choose?
What do you think you should choose?
Secretary Mun, leave us.
We have a family issue to discuss.
Yes, ma'am.
How dare you threaten me?
Do you think I'll do what you want just because of your threat?
Choose...
whether to kill your friend or your sister.
You killed my nephew already.
That's enough, Mother.
No, it isn't.
Which family do you belong to?
You should've stopped her.
How dare you come in here with this darn recording?
Do you think I'm a pushover?
Do you not care about your husband at all?
Delete it.
You, delete it immediately.
I'll have no choice,
but to call your parents in then.
I'll have them come here, show them their sick son-in-law,
and discuss their second daughter's recording with them.
They can take their mighty eldest daughter while they're at it.
I just got the dashcam footage...
from Inspector Mun.
I'll take care of it.
I'll delete it.
Cheong Ah.
I'll delete it now.
(Are you sure you want to delete this file?)
(Yeouido Patrol Division)
I'll send Cheong Ah off.
Go with her.
You...
don't deserve to stay here.
Aunt, it's me.
This is unusual. What are you calling me for?
What is it about that you want to talk as my nephew at this hour?
It means this is personal.
What? You want to see me now?
Neither at the office nor the hospital,
but quietly at home?
Let's go.
What does he have to say this time?
He's trying to take his chance, is that it?
Let's breathe, Seol Ah. Take a deep breath.
Were you intimidated?
Yes, totally.
She isn't always like that, is she?
Yes, all the time.
What?
She's like that all the time. I'm okay now since I'm used to it.
My gosh.
What was that about earlier?
What?
Secretary Mun.
What happened between the two of you when you were in school?
We weren't on good terms.
We were close, but then she suddenly changed.
So we drifted apart.
Seeing how you two are getting involved like this,
I guess it isn't a nice relationship.
But why didn't she even greet you?
Nor did she look at you when you entered.
Is she acting so arrogant...
because she made that false statement for Jin U?
What is this?
The 100,000 dollars you gave to Ms. Kim Cheong Ah...
and the dashcam footage that captured the accident.
I came here to see you first before handing it to the police.
You'll know if you watch it, but Jin U caused the accident.
What will you do?
What do you want me to do?
You decided it all already.
You have me on the edge of a cliff...
by showing me this evidence so I can't do anything.
What do you want me to do?
Then do nothing from now on.
I'll correct what you did on Jin U's behalf.
I'm not trying to take his place. I'm trying to protect it.
I'm not interested in business management.
I'm not talented either.
I like my current job.
I want to be better at my work.
I mean it.
Then show me that you mean it.
What?
Anyone will think this is whistle-blowing.
I can't just leave a whistle-blower alone.
If you take responsibility and leave for one of our foreign branches,
I'll follow your decision.
Come back when Jin U wakes up.
Then I'll trust you.
Right away?
Why? Can't you?
Don't think about using your mother as an excuse.
You weren't even here when she needed you.
I'm looking for someone.
If I find her, I'll leave after meeting her.
What?
You went through so much, my friend.
You too.
I was able to put up with it thanks to you.
Thank you for not giving up on me...
when I almost gave up on myself.
What?
I didn't do anything.
If you want to thank someone, go and thank Mr. Gu.
He worked really hard as if it was his situation.
Of course, I will. I'm truly grateful to him.
You know what?
He said he wasn't,
but I could tell he was sincere at every moment.
It feels strange.
I feel somewhat pungent whenever I see him.
What, pungent?
How strange does it feel?
I don't know.
He keeps making me look back.
What do you think his story is?
Don't mind him too much.
Everyone has their own painful experience.
Right.
Would that secretary know that her dad gave us the dashcam footage?
He's impressive.
If I had decided to take it to court,
his daughter could've been punished for perjury.
How can I tell Hae Rang that I gave it to them myself?
She'll feel sorry,
and I will feel sorry too.
Go tell her the truth.
I don't think I can see her face.
Even if it was the upper management's orders,
what she did was wrong.
You should give her a good scolding.
Tell her exactly what she did wrong.
Okay.
How could she do that...
as soon as she woke up?
I guess she did it for her boss,
but she almost put the blame on an innocent person.
I mean, her dad is a cop.
I also came close to committing...
a horrible mistake today myself.
It was just a split-second, but I thought about doing it.
But you didn't.
You didn't do such a thing because it's you.
You did the right thing, Dad.
That's not true.
He protected Hae Rang.
So did I and the girl who wants to be a cop.
Right. I'll visit and thank them later.
What if Hae Rang gets fired because of me?
I don't think...
the chairwoman will let this slide.
Then we won't just sit back and do nothing.
Since we didn't do anything wrong, we have nothing to be afraid of.
It's you who didn't do anything wrong.
But this is about your restaurant...
and your sister's job.
That's what I'm worried about.
Things might be difficult,
but I can move my restaurant, and she can find a new job.
I'm not going to take it lying down though.
What is the briefing for?
Just give the exclusive to Daekyung Daily...
and let the others follow along.
The headline goes like this.
"Vice Chairman of Inter Market in critical condition..."
"from car accident on business trip to Singapore."
Just focus on Jin U's condition rather than the accident.
They will soon find out that he's in a coma.
We need to win sympathy from the public.
We have to hurry.
What's that thing in your hand?
Your guess was right.
The man who was with Ms. Kim...
turns out to be Mun Tae Rang.
Here.
He's sick and tired of you.
He said that he was sick of the sight of you.
He didn't want to go home.
He said he needed a place to breathe.
Why did you say...
such things to her, not me?
What have we wanted from each other the whole time?
I'm not tired.
I didn't do enough for you to get tired.
I'm going to try my best until I get tired.
Only then,
we can talk about it again.
Hello, Ms. Han.
The picture of you on social media from the seolleongtang place...
What is it about?
What?
What picture?
I'll be there in 10 minutes. Come down to the parking lot.
(I'm so lucky today.)
(I saw Kim Seol Ah with a guy.)
(She was so pretty. The guy paid for their meal.)
Why would they post pictures like this?
Why did you get caught like that...
after deleting all the pictures of your husband's affair?
What's the big deal about the picture?
It's nothing.
It's no big deal, but the picture is going viral.
They will try...
to make a big deal out of it going through your call history,
credit card bills, and even highway toll bills.
You were alone with a man at 4am.
They can make up any stories they want.
You're the one who doesn't have evidence for your husband's affair.
You should meet him and get your stories straight...
before they find out about this.
Something like you just ran into him in the restaurant...
and you didn't even know he paid for your meal.
Pretend not to know anything.
Do you understand?
Where have you been?
I went to my car.
I'll stay with him today.
You can go home and rest.
I heard there's a video of you online.
What is it?
It's nothing.
I guess someone was mistaken.
Didn't you tell me...
that you went to a sauna that night?
Why did you lie?
Is it because of the guy who was with you?
Who's that guy? Tell me the truth.
He just paid for my meal. I don't even know him.
(Entrance to elevators)
You don't know him?
He just paid for your meal?
What did you say when I asked you about him earlier?
Do you still think it's only my son who's at fault?
Do you still want to say there isn't anything between you and him?
No, that's not true.
It's not like what you want.
What? It's not like what I want?
How dare you...
What is this?
That's enough.
I'm saying this in case you're mistaken.
Even if I wasn't here, anyone would've done the same.
You seem to have no scruples about committing illegal activities.
Why would you need pictures like this?
We ate at different tables,
and I paid for her bill because she didn't have money.
If you do something illegal like this again,
I'll report it to the police.
What? Police?
Mother, please stop.
(Kim Yeon Ah)
Sell it?
Or not?
Hello, Yeon Ah?
How did you know it was me?
Are you a stalker?
It's your footsteps.
You recognized me just by my footsteps?
Because I'm a man with superpowers from outer space.
My gosh.
What are you doing with the gold medal?
Is it yours?
Yes. I'm going to sell it.
What do you sell it for?
To win a gold medal.
Do you want to come with me?
Why would I?
You said you have superpowers.
I mean, you said you're a genius in math.
Help me calculate the price of gold.
I'm poor at math.
I don't even know the multiplication table.
What?
Hey, what if he tries to scam me?
What's taking him so long?
Hey, don't worry. You have me.
The gold price is 44.93 dollars per gram today.
And 1 don is 3.75 gram.
Your medal is 3 don. So 3.75 times 3 equals 11.25.
And 11.25 times 44.93 is 505.50 dollars.
I'll make sure you get the right amount of money.
Is this a math competition or what?
Just make sure to get the money from him.
Okay.
Mister, the amount we want is 505 dollars and 50 cents.
That exact amount.
This is a fake.
It's exactly a fake.
- What? - What?
No way. I won this in a competition.
Do you mean to say the organizer gave out a fake medal?
I don't know about that.
Maybe they gave out fakes,
or maybe someone swapped it out for a fake.
What does this look like to you?
Must you ask? It's a medal.
You're wrong. To me,
this is...
the sweat and tears of my youngest daughter.
Hey. What's the matter?
I think my dad sold my sweat and tears.
What? Your dad?
No way.
You're mistaken. What kind of dad would do that?
The organizer conned everyone. That's the only explanation.
No. It's definitely my dad.
Do you know a policeman I can report this to?
My dad is a police officer.
Is he really? Then report him for me.
I'm sure your dad had an urgent reason.
An urgent reason. As if.
We urgently got to eat golden samgyeopsal.
You fool. You idiot.
I ate the food bought with my own medal.
Win another one. You'll have no problem.
You have no idea. It costs a fortune.
Consumables alone cost 10,000 dollars a year.
And that's before the costs for coaching.
Can't you win prize money?
Junior competitions don't offer prize money.
Oh, really?
Then can't you accept sponsorships?
It's not that easy. It's not golf.
It's not like anyone knows me.
Then show me that you mean it.
If you take responsibility and leave for one of our foreign branches,
I'll follow your decision.
Come back when Jin U wakes up.
Jun Hwi. What are you doing?
Do you have something to say? Why are you out here?
You made coffee too?
Were you waiting for me?
Does it show?
Were you really? Why?
Let's have coffee together.
Together?
Okay, let's.
Go and freshen up. I'll have it ready.
Okay. I'll just wash my hands.
Don't think about using your mother as an excuse.
You weren't even here when she needed you.
Stop stealing glances.
How else am I to see you then?
I can only see you when you let me.
Did you decide where to go for dinner on Saturday?
I'm still thinking.
We only eat out twice a month.
We should go somewhere nice.
What do you want to do with me other than eat?
What's the occasion? Will you do as I ask?
It depends.
Really?
Then I'll think about it and tell you during dinner.
Just one thing, right?
Yes. Two is too much.
Mom.
What?
Sorry for not being there when things were tough.
What?
I thought a lot about you.
What?
I'm just saying.
She's Jin U's secretary?
You have the hiccups again?
Yes. Did dad wash those?
Yes.
He added too much fabric softener and no detergent,
so the clothes aren't clean but smell lovely.
Dad says he got a job as a homemaker.
Will he really take over the housework?
My gosh. That job isn't for everyone.
I forced him to do something before the laziness...
ruined him completely.
He won't last a month.
No, right? Still, he's trying hard.
Why won't the hiccups stop?
I don't know.
I'll get you some water.
Forget that, Mom.
Sit down.
Rim and Jin U's accident. They decided to settle.
What?
They admitted they're at fault. They'll start things tomorrow.
So you don't have to worry anymore.
Do you think Seol Ah will be okay?
She'll be fine. You know what she's like.
She has a strong mentality.
Still, her husband's at fault.
I hope her mother-in-law doesn't torture her.
Why did they suddenly settle?
The woman was so adamant.
Someone found a witness.
A witness?
Oh, so there's no way out?
That someone did us a huge favor.
Yes.
She took her time.
Hello? Mr. Gu, it's me.
So what?
What?
I said I'd call.
So what?
Is it a bad time?
I'll call you again tomorrow. Bye.
Don't hang up.
What?
Let's talk.
Okay then.
I'll be brief so I don't take up your time.
Thank you, Mr. Gu.
Is that it?
Yes.
That's too short.
It is, isn't it? I'll try again.
Thank you so, so much, Mr. Gu.
Don't you have anything else to say to me?
You mean the camera, don't you?
I started two part-time jobs,
and I won't cause you trouble, so you needn't worry.
I should buy you a meal,
but you'll just refuse.
We'll never see each other again.
You won't feel the same,
but I was pleased to have met you.
Why?
I don't know. I can't explain.
To borrow Anne Shirley's words,
it's great to know there's someone with...
a soul similar to mine.
Do you mean to say my soul is like yours?
How so?
Are you angry I said we're alike?
Who on earth is this Anne Shirley?
Who keeps saying such nonsense?
Anne of Green Gables.
What? "Anne of Green Gables"?
What? She's a beacon of light to me.
Shall I send you the book instead of treating you to a meal?
I have it.
I think I do.
What? You have it?
You buy books like that too?
How girly.
I found it. Someone had left it on a train.
Oh, you found it?
Then try reading it. It's good even for the second time.
I don't really want to read it.
I don't want to remember.
What?
The day I found the book.
What about that day?
Mr. Gu?
Let's hang up.
Okay. Oh, wait.
Take care then...
and good luck with your job.
Right, you too.
Goodbye then.
What could've happened on the day he found the book?
Not going as planned is quite exciting though.
It means that we'll experience the unexpected.
I'm happy that October exists.
Can you imagine the panic of jumping over to November?
Look at the colorful leaves.
Don't they excite you?
No way.
Many people have read this book.
You're awesomely handsome, Mr. Soldier.
I think...
I've fallen for you.
No way.
That's insane.
How can that high school student be her?
I think...
I just fell for you, Mr. Gu Jun Hwi.
That's the second time I fell for a guy in my whole life.
(Episode 30)
Are you off to your part-time job?
Yes, but is Yeon Ah still not home?
She's not in her room.
No, she's home.
Look. Just look at it. Look!
Look at the fake blood and sweat on this medal.
How can I possibly look at it?
No, you will look at it.
Look at the blood coming off it.
See the sweat? The medal is actually sweating!
Can't you see?
I'm dripping with cold sweat too,
so let me finish washing the dishes...
and calmly talk about it.
Get it back.
Go to where you sold it and get my medal back.
How on earth can a dad sell his daughter's medal?
Selling it is bad enough,
but then you bought samgyeopsal for me with that money.
Can you even imagine how I'm feeling right now?
- I... - Mom, don't.
You said you had quit tennis.
You said you were going to be a K-pop idol.
Didn't you also go to the jewelry store to sell it?
What? Do you even hear yourself?
How can you say that when you were an athlete too?
I thought that you of all people understood me at least.
I thought you knew why I wanted to sell this.
I didn't think I had to explain myself to you.
You're the worst!
Yeon Ah, I'm sorry.
I'm truly sorry.
I'm sorry I sold your medal...
and bought samgyeopsal with the money.
I'm truly sorry.
I'll bring back your medal. I promise.
But,
I don't want you...
to be a professional athlete.
I want you to quit.
Of course, since you don't want me to end up like you.
You're worried that I'd win one gold medal...
and be forgotten like you were.
- Tell me I'm wrong. - Yeon Ah.
Watch what you're saying.
Have you ever been on the national team?
Have you made your country proud?
No one hands you that chance.
Neither of us was ever able to get that far.
You have no idea how great our dad was.
I saw his games.
I watched them over and over again in secret.
I saw the video of him...
winning the medal more than 10 times.
I acknowledge him as a fellow athlete...
but as our dad...
Stop. That's enough, Yeon Ah.
I retired at the age of 34.
What job in the world makes you retire at 34?
I trained all my life,
but all you're left with is a damaged body.
Your heyday ends too quickly and life is too long.
I...
don't want you to live like that too.
That's why I was thrilled when you said...
you'd quit tennis to become a K-pop artist.
I don't care if you make it or not.
If it makes you quit tennis, then I'm excited for you.
That's...
how I truly feel.
Your medal I sold...
I'll get it back to you.
(Shinchon Hankook Hospital)
One might think I'm punishing you or something.
Don't your legs hurt?
Leave already.
My mouth hurts.
My throat hurts too and my blood pressure is abnormal.
I won't allow it.
I won't allow you to stay by my son's sickbed.
I apologize for upsetting you...
with the photos and the recording.
As if you even mean that.
I may be upset about this ordeal, but you no longer even care.
You said we were in the same boat,
but here you are presenting a recording.
How dare you lie to me.
I still feel the same way, Mother.
My heart is still here. It can't leave.
If you think about it, your heart never did leave.
You never gave it to my son in the first place.
I regret what I did...
and I'm sorry for putting Jin U through this.
It's why I can't leave.
Mother, I can do better.
Everything I put my mind to, I do well.
You're regretful?
Is this the attitude of someone repenting?
You stand with your back straight...
and say whatever that's on your mind.
That rotten brain of yours must be the first to go.
I will then.
From head to toe, I'll change everything about me.
Gosh, my neck.
Is that how your attorney advised you?
That you must hold out...
until I'm dead...
if you're to inherit the fortune?
That's not it.
Yes, it is.
You can't stick your head in the sand.
I told you.
You will be kicked out like a beggar...
without a single penny.
It says in the law...
that you can't kick me out.
What?
Okay.
Then I'll kick you out right this instant.
Let's see if the law comes first or me.
Come drag my daughter-in-law out.
And tell the hospital security team...
to block her from entering starting tomorrow.
Do you want to get dragged out by the security team...
so that all the nurses find out?
Or do you want to leave decently by having me see you out?
Hurry and go home.
Go home.
I'll send your stuff home later, so go home.
Hurry up.
Stay out of my sight, please.
I don't even want to see your face.
Hurry and go home.
Go now.
- Mother. - Don't call me that.
Gosh.
- She's a reporter, right? - Yes.
She's from Jodong Daily. She wrote an article about you.
Hello, ma'am.
- Who are you? - Don't you remember me?
I'm the reporter who first wrote an article about your power abuse.
I'm Han Se Hee of Jodong Daily.
I heard the news about Vice Chairman Do's accident.
And that you gave an exclusive to Daekyung Daily.
Hello, Ms. Kim.
Hello.
Your husband is in a coma.
I guess you're in great shock.
I heard he and his secretary were on their way for a business trip.
You two are on such good terms.
Not to mention the pictures on your social media,
people who don't know might think you're mother and daughter.
We were close,
and we became even closer after what happened to my son.
- Why, what? What do you want? - Mother.
I boil with rage whenever I see reporters.
I'll be careful.
Did I make your heart drop, my dear? You're such a good daughter-in-law.
We can't do any interviews at the hospital,
so please go back.
You're going to your house, right?
Let me join you...
and check some facts in the car.
Or I'll follow you to your house.
"You weren't abandoned."
"You were gems that were preciously saved and protected."
Have you forgotten what Dad said?
It protected me and my pride.
It raised me up whenever I fell down.
There are lies you aren't supposed to tell.
How could you try to ruin someone else's life?
Are you really my sister?
Are you the Mun Hae Rang whom I used to know?
I know what I did was wrong.
Do you think I don't?
I know.
I'm aware of it.
But I thought of him first before Dad.
I totally forgot that Dad was a police officer.
I felt so sorry to the victim...
that I wondered if I should say I drove the car.
If I should say I caused the accident.
It was all I was torn about.
What?
The chairwoman said...
she can't trust her daughter-in-law, but she can trust me.
I mean my love, not me.
Do you believe her?
She used you so you'd make a false statement.
I don't care...
as long as I can stay beside him instead of that woman.
Just for a month, Tae Rang.
I'll stay by his side just for a month.
Make some sense already.
Do you really think that's possible?
The chairwoman told me to come and work...
because she has to take care of his work.
What?
When we came back from a business trip,
I was back to being a secretary.
I always had to lock my heart up...
in my desk drawer in the office.
It came out for the first time.
I'll leave it out for a little more...
and lock it back up.
At least until I get discharged.
Just look the other way until then.
Resign.
Resign from the company tomorrow.
No.
You don't have to.
I'll write the resignation letter and hand it in myself.
Tae Rang!
So keep your promise...
that you'd keep your sister...
away from my husband.
- Let's go. - There's something in your hair.
Oh, really?
- Done. - Oh, goodness.
I'll ride in the passenger seat.
Okay.
How dare you...
- There's something in your hair. - Oh, really?
- Done. - Oh, goodness.
Why are you getting worked up?
Just be glad and let it slide.
Don't try to understand her.
She's incomprehensible...
and doesn't make any sense.
Just stop minding her.
Stop.
Gosh, why are you bothered by that woman?
Mind your own business, Tae Rang.
Mind your own.
This one...
goes here.
And this...
I'm not in the pit of despair this morning.
I shouldn't be depressed first thing in the morning.
(Soju)
I think it's so nice to have mornings.
Done, done, done.
(Daily Vegetables)
Oh, okay.
That will be two dollars.
Just a moment.
Do you want to eat this?
It's only an hour past the expiration.
Here.
Thank you.
Is it her?
I'm sure it's a far-fetched idea.
But why does it feel like it's the same person?
All I remember is her hair.
Can I come in?
Yes.
Are you going to work on Saturday?
The Sports Marketing Department is busier on weekends.
Main sports games are held on weekends.
I see.
You shouldn't stand me up though.
I made a reservation already.
I'm not going to stand you up. Don't worry.
I read articles about Jin U.
Did you know about it?
Yes.
I guess Hwa Young did it.
Right.
It's not like she can hide it forever.
She did the right thing.
The company and the stock prices might be reeling for the moment,
but it's something we can overcome.
You should support your aunt.
And you should help her with Jin U's work.
She can't deal with it all by herself.
I'll see you tonight.
You have to come.
Okay.
It's Anne.
Is it your book?
No way. I picked it up on the street.
I'll return it to its original owner.
Do you know who the owner is?
I'm going to look into it.
I'm home, Dad.
Dad, do you want some gimbap?
Your sister's husband.
I mean, your brother-in-law.
He had a car accident.
He's in a coma or something.
He's unconscious.
That's what the news says.
Hey, call your mom. We have to go to the hospital.
No, hang on.
Tell her to come to the hospital after work.
We should go first.
Call Seol Ah and ask which hospital it is.
Dad, we can do that later when things are settled.
We should go when Seol Ah says we can come.
There must be a lot of reporters now.
If we show up without calling her, it might put her in trouble.
You know we're not supposed to exist.
What?
Mom knows about Jin U.
And I knew.
What?
Then...
was I the only one who didn't know about it?
While he was lying in a hospital with a respirator on,
did you tell me that she had a fight with her husband and got kicked out?
While your sister was worried sick,
her dad was just talking nonsense nonchalantly?
She was here because she was having a hard time.
She came home to see her parents.
I mean,
why would you make me look like a puppet? Why?
("Vice Chairman Do Jin U of Inter Market in coma")
They must have a death wish.
What? "A warning sign in succession of management?"
"The interest is focused on who is taking over management?"
Darn it!
The articles keep focusing on the transfer of management.
In those articles, Jin U is already dead.
Those stupid reporters.
We should hurry and switch the frame.
Stay out of this. It's none of your business.
How dare you tell me what to do?
You must think this is a good chance with the reporters outside and all.
But they won't hold out for long. And you won't either.
Why don't you go pack your stuff in the meantime?
I'm going to my husband.
If I don't stay with him, reporters will find it strange.
There can't be an article about his affair.
So please make sure Secretary Mun doesn't come to the hospital.
What did you say?
My whole life,
your love, and our journey...
might have been a coincidence...
like a twig snapped in the wind falling to the ground at my feet.
Surrendering myself to the coincidence...
and sometimes resisting it, I've spent my days...
and ended up here like this.
Do you want me to stop reading and play some music?
Who are you?
What are you doing in this room when there's no guardian?
Do you know who I am?
I'm Jin U's aunt.
Who are you?
Hello, ma'am. I'm Vice Chairman Do's secretary.
I see. You were in the accident.
I'm glad that you came around.
Thank you.
I know you're his secretary, but this isn't right.
Even I feel uncomfortable to watch this.
Jin U's wife wouldn't be happy to see it.
Will you turn off the music?
This is Chairwoman Hong's order.
She asked me to read books and play music for him.
She wants me to talk to him.
It will help him wake up.
Give me the book and get out.
Jin U's wife will read it.
What are you waiting for? Give me the book.
How can you be a secretary when you can't see reason?
There are reporters outside.
And doctors and nurses are watching too.
I don't want you to do something rash like this again.
And make sure to behave around my nephew's wife.
Get out.
Aren't you going to greet me?
Seol Ah.
You're here.
Yes.
What are you waiting for?
Did you see everything?
No. I just got here.
I guess she was reading him a book.
What? Well...
Hwa Young asked her to do that.
It was her order.
Let's have a seat.
It's not like his secretary is a caregiver or something.
This is Hwa Young's mistake.
Maybe I should talk to her.
Come have a seat.
Excuse me.
(Dad)
Who is it? What's the matter?
It's a reporter.
Reporter?
Give me that. I'll answer it.
Is she not answering?
No.
You should call her. She might answer your call.
Just hang it up for now.
She might not be able to pick up the phone now.
I guess she'll call you back when she can.
You think? Maybe you're right.
We shouldn't get caught.
I'm sorry. It's my fault.
It's okay, Cheong Ah.
It's not like Seol Ah is going anywhere,
and my calling won't help wake up Jin U.
Let's wait for her to call.
We'll wait, okay?
Okay.
- Have some Solomon's seal tea. - Thanks.
Are you okay?
Yes.
Do you have a concern you can't tell me about?
(Eunjin High School Kim Yeon Ah)
(Inter Market Marketing Department Gu Jun Hwi)
(Ms. Kim Cheong Ah)
Yeon Ah starts practice at 2pm.
Come to Eunjin High School.
Eunjin High School...
is close to her studio.
Is it Seol Ah?
What? Why is Mr. Gu calling me?
Hello?
It's me, Gu Jun Hwi.
I know. So what?
I'll be in the area on business.
Can we meet up?
What?
Yes, if it's for just a while.
I'll be there in 30 minutes.
The cafe opposite the studio.
Text me.
Okay.
See you later.
What's going on? Why did he ask to meet?
He can't have begun to miss me overnight.
What's going on?
It's not a good occasion then.
What's going on?
I want to ask you something.
Ask away.
You said I'm the second.
What?
Who's the first guy you fell for?
What?
I know I'm being rude,
but I'd like you to tell me.
You've confused me a bit.
I confused you?
Because I said you're my second?
Yes.
Where were you?
When you fell for the first guy.
On a train.
Then... Was the guy...
a soldier?
How do you know that?
Do you know that soldier?
Of course. Very well.
(Anne of Green Gables)
I'll give you back your book.
(Anne of Green Gables)
Then that soldier...
was you?
You have a clear taste,
seeing how you fell for the same guy twice.
(Beautiful Love, Wonderful Life)
Do you know someone named Mun Hae Rang?
She bullied Cheong Ah.
Do you remember...
what you did to my sister?
Kim Cheong Ah, Kim Seol Ah?
Gu Jun Hwi?
What are you hiding, Cheong Ah?
What is your sister hiding by pretending to...
be an orphan when she has a family?
If you hang in there...
until the divorce is final,
I'll let you replace Seol Ah.
- Are you human? - Who are you?
Are you even human?
