(Episode 69)
What do you want?
Don't you know who I am?
What?
Oh, you are Seo Dong Hee.
What's your name?
What is your name?
I'm Kim Min Kyung.
No.
What do you mean?
Your name isn't Kim Min Kyung.
Look, Ms. Seo Dong Hee.
I just so happened...
to see Reporter Kim Min Kyung from "Power of Women" earlier today.
I'm going to ask you one more time.
What is your name?
I'm Cho Yoo Na. Reporter Cho Yoo Na from "Power of Women."
Then who sent you to my place?
No one did.
Was it someone from Inha Fashion?
Ms. Baek Seung Ju, perhaps?
That look on your face tells me that it was her.
What are you doing?
I'm defending myself.
I should at least try to defend myself.
Then lastly,
let me ask you just one more question.
The article...
about me and Him Chan.
What do you plan to do with it?
Will you actually write it?
You look like you'll punch me if I say yes.
I asked you if you were planning to write it.
No.
I may get in trouble if I write it, seeing how angry you are.
I won't.
I won't write about you, so don't worry.
Dong Hee, what are you doing here?
Let's talk inside.
What's with this attitude? This is awfully rude.
Reporter Cho Yoo Na...
from "Power of Women."
Why did you send her to my place?
What?
The woman who left this room just now after meeting you.
Why did you send her to my house?
What are you talking about?
Then let me rephrase my question.
Why did you meet Reporter Cho Yoo Na?
In broad daylight, in a hotel room at that.
Why do I have to tell you?
Then would you prefer to tell Director Kang?
Or Cha Yeol?
Dong Hee, are you threatening me?
If you had nothing to hide,
this wouldn't sound like a threat.
So answer my question.
You left the office saying you had a meeting with a client. So why...
Why did you meet Reporter Cho Yoo Na?
Answer my question.
Because of you.
To make sure she wouldn't write the article about you.
What do you mean?
I heard she knew about Him Chan's secret.
Who do you think told her about it?
Who told her?
Mother.
Cha Yeol's mother.
- What did you say? - You know he was adopted, right?
And the fact that she doesn't like Cha Yeol.
But what does exposing Him Chan's secret...
have to do with her not liking Cha Yeol?
Why does it matter?
Because Cha Yeol has decided against returning to the US.
She wants to send him back to the US no matter what.
Are you saying she did this...
hoping it'd scare us and make us move to the US?
That's right.
If you don't believe me,
you can ask Reporter Cho directly.
Ask her who ordered her to write the article...
and who tried to stop it.
I had no idea.
I'm sorry, Ms. Baek.
I misunderstood your intentions.
You sure did.
I did this to help you.
Had I known you'd react like this,
I would've just turned a blind eye to it.
I'm really sorry.
At least you apologized.
I'm off.
If Cha Yeol finds out, he'll be so hurt.
What should I do?
What's wrong?
Is the homework too hard?
No.
Then why did you let out such a heavy sigh?
There's only one thing that makes me sigh.
My mom and dad.
Your mom and dad? What about them?
I thought they had gotten close again, but they're back to square one.
Grandpa, can't you help my mom and dad?
Me?
But how?
That's something you need to figure out.
Hye Na, I understand how you feel.
But shouldn't you be considerate of how your mother feels about it?
It doesn't look like she wants to get back together with your dad.
Don't you agree?
No, Mom likes Dad now.
She's just embarrassed to admit it...
after hating him for so long.
Is that so?
Yes!
So it's very important that you and I help them now.
It's not this woman either?
Who is this woman?
A reporter who is notorious...
for preying on people's weaknesses to write her articles.
So I thought it could be her.
It's not her?
No, it's not.
Well, I knew it was a long shot.
Cha Yeol.
You can stop now.
Stop? What do you mean?
Are you telling me to give up looking for the reporter?
I can't do that.
What if this reporter actually publishes the article about Him Chan?
The thing is, I met the reporter earlier.
Really? Where? How?
I met her by chance on my way back after sending the parcels.
What did the reporter say? What's her name and where does she work?
What is her name and where does she work?
She is Reporter Cho Yoo Na at "Power of Women."
Hey, where are you going?
What do you think? I need to meet her now and take it up with her.
I already talked to her.
She promised me that she wouldn't write the article.
So? You're just going to let it go?
I already talked it out with her.
You know how I am. I can be scary when I'm angry.
Besides, this is about Him Chan.
Of course, I wouldn't go easy on her.
I showed her that she couldn't mess with me.
You did?
Yes, I totally did.
So you don't need to step in.
After all, provoking these people...
won't do us any good.
Don't you agree?
All right.
You're so competent, Dong Hee.
Are you realizing that just now?
(Hyena Hair Salon)
I got this for you.
What is this, Father?
You like corn.
I bought it because it made me think of you.
Thank you, Father.
But don't waste your money on stuff like this.
Spend it on buying what you want to eat.
I know you don't have a lot of money to spend.
You don't have to buy things for me.
If you're that worried,
why don't you buy me some snacks?
Me?
Why? You don't want to?
No, it's not that.
Sure, I'll do that. I'll buy you snacks from now on.
Oh, Dad. What are you doing here?
Hey, I'm not here to see you.
I'll be off, then.
Okay. Bye, Father.
Hey, why was he here?
He remembered that I liked corn and bought some...
for me.
What's gotten into him?
My gosh. You didn't have to get me anything.
You've done so much for my family.
This is nothing.
Even if I bought you a corn field, it wouldn't be enough.
That's true.
A corn field wouldn't cost much anyway.
Stop it, Hye Ran.
Anyway, is Jung Eun hiding a jar of honey here or something?
She won't come home.
She doesn't realize that she's inconveniencing you.
My gosh. You think she's hiding...
a jar of honey here?
What do you mean?
So she's actually hiding something here?
She sure is.
Stop it, Hye Ran.
Why? Are you afraid that I'd tell him?
Hey, what's with you today?
Well, I guess there's something amusing that only I don't know about.
What? No, not at all.
Hye Ran, go inside and wash the dishes for me.
Wash the dishes? I don't want to.
What?
Mr. Kim! She's hiding...
Stop, Hye Ran.
I'll do the dishes.
Just sit down and have some corn.
Can I really do that?
Yes, sure thing.
Please excuse me.
Sure.
Ms. Bang, what is it that Jung Eun is hiding?
I'll tell you later when the time is right.
Are you washing the dishes?
Yes.
I'll help you.
Wait, Jung Eun. Your brother is outside.
Hey, Jung Ho.
What are you doing in there?
What? Oh...
I figured I should at least do the dishes to thank him for all the free food.
Exactly. So come back home already. Stop inconveniencing him.
Well, I'll decide what to do.
That brat... Goodness.
Anyway, I'm off.
All right. See you.
- All right. - Bye.
(Hana Dumplings)
He's awfully slow-witted.
I think I should...
drag Jung Eun home even if she doesn't want to move back home.
Why?
Mr. Jang is single too, you know.
What if strange rumors spread?
Then she can't get married.
I should drag her home before that happens.
If that happens, she can just marry him.
Why are you worried?
How could you say such a thing?
That's absurd.
"Absurd"? Why?
People would think that they're father and daughter.
Father and daughter, my foot.
I think they'd make such a cute couple.
Don't even think about that.
Come on. He's such a good catch.
He's rich and kind.
And he's pretty good-looking.
It doesn't matter how rich and kind he is.
He's not Jung Eun's type,
so don't even dream about it. Do you understand?
What's with you? My goodness.
Gosh.
I'm sorry, but he is your sister's type.
Must he always take off his socks here?
Really? You made sure the article wouldn't be published?
Yes. Dong Hee met the reporter by chance and persuaded her.
I'm glad.
Then did you find out who told the reporter about Him Chan?
That I'm not sure.
Dong Hee said she took care of everything...
and told me not to worry about it.
Dong Hee is very mature for her age.
She said that because she didn't want you to worry.
That's right, Father.
Tell her to come over soon with Him Chan.
I miss Him Chan.
Okay, I'll let her know.
Honey, don't get too attached to that kid.
They'll move to the US soon.
What will you do if you get too attached?
Must you say that? My goodness.
Anyway, what if Him Chan's birth mother shows up...
and says that she wants her son back?
That won't happen.
She hasn't called once since the day she abandoned her son.
You never know.
If she finds out that Dong Hee is marrying into the family,
she may try to extort money from her. Who knows?
That's why I'm so relieved that we managed to stop the article.
She might have tried to reach out to us if she'd read the article.
It's better that she stays out of the picture forever.
Of course.
Dong Hee is hoping she never shows up.
(Reporter Cho Yoo Na)
Seung Ju, someone is calling you.
It says "Reporter Cho Yoo Na."
Really?
I turned down her interview request.
Why does she keep calling me?
Hello?
Aren't you going upstairs? What's wrong?
It's nothing. You go ahead.
Why are you calling?
I was worried.
You ran into Seo Dong Hee at the hotel earlier, didn't you?
You met her too?
That's why I'm calling.
What did Dong Hee say to you?
Okay.
And stop calling me.
I have to go.
Dong Hee, can we meet now?
Cha Yeol.
Why did you want to see me at this hour?
Did something happen?
Earlier today...
You didn't just run into Reporter Cho. You also met Ms. Baek.
What? How did you know?
Why didn't you tell me?
That's...
Tell me what's going on.
How does Ms. Baek know Reporter Cho Yoo Na?
Tell me!
The truth is...
What? The person who told Reporter Cho about Him Chan...
was my mother?
Yes.
That's why I couldn't tell you about running into Ms. Baek.
Because if I did,
I'd also have to tell you about Mother.
Don't be like this, Cha Yeol.
Let go.
Cha Yeol.
Let me go!
Let it slide just this once, for my sake.
Everything's been resolved now.
So let it go, just this once. Okay?
How could I do that?
This isn't just about me. It concerns you and Him Chan.
So how could I just let it go?
I want to just let it go.
So do it for my sake. Please?
Dong Hee.
I understand why you're so angry.
But what's the point of being angry with Mother?
If being angry could change the situation,
then I'd yell at her with you.
But it won't change anything, and you know that.
So please calm down.
Cha Yeol.
I really didn't know that she'd do something like this.
I always knew she didn't like me,
but I didn't think she'd stoop so low.
I'm too embarrassed to even face you, Dong Hee.
I'm okay.
As long as you're not hurt.
I'm really okay.
You know, I think she did it because she loves Director Kang so much,
not because she hates you.
Not because she hates me?
You think she did it out of love for Sung Wook?
Yes.
So don't be too hurt by it.
Thank you, Dong Hee.
For being right by my side.
Thank you so much.
Me too.
Thank you so much for being right by my side, Cha Yeol.
But I don't understand why Ms. Baek did that.
What do you mean?
If she wanted to stop the reporter,
why didn't she just tell one of us?
Why do it herself?
And she said she did it for you.
Right.
It's strange.
And she lied...
to meet the reporter in a hotel room, which is weird.
That's true,
but it's also true that she stopped the article.
She had no other reason to do it, if not for me.
So do you believe her?
Do you really think she stopped the article for your sake?
Why else would she do such a thing?
She has nothing to do with me or Him Chan.
Exactly.
She has nothing to do with you or Him Chan.
So why did she stop the article?
Just try to see it in a good light.
In a good light? How?
Just think, "She probably did it because she didn't want us to worry."
You shouldn't always try to only see the good in people.
What if they blindside you?
No way. Why would I be blindsided?
Where were you? It's getting late.
I went to see Dong Hee.
You'll see her tomorrow at work anyway. You're really something.
You must be tired. Get some rest.
Seung Ju.
Let's talk.
I heard you stopped the article about Dong Hee.
Yes.
What about it?
If you knew who the reporter was,
why didn't you just tell me or Dong Hee?
Why did you stop it yourself?
Am I being criticized for helping?
No, it's not that.
Dong Hee must've told you...
that Mother was the one who told the reporter about Him Chan's secret.
- Yes. - That's why I did it.
I thought your relationship with Mother would be destroyed if you found out.
Then the whole family would be thrown into turmoil.
As the eldest daughter-in-law, I wanted to prevent that.
Is that really all?
Of course, that's all. What other reason would I have?
Anyway, thanks for your concern.
I won't help anymore.
Even when I try to help,
you suspect my intentions.
What? Your manager made sure the article wouldn't be published?
- That's right. - Isn't she the one who hired you?
Yes, she is.
My gosh.
Your manager saved you.
I agree.
(Song Chan Woo)
Hey, Chan Woo.
What's up?
You're in the area now?
Yes. I came here to meet a client...
and thought of you.
Can you step out now?
Well, sure. Okay.
Give me a moment.
Who was that? You sounded very excited to talk to him.
He is my brother's best friend.
Were you close to him too?
No, it's not that.
I ran into him recently.
He said we should meet up.
I didn't know he'd actually come here to see me.
Are you jealous right now?
Don't worry. He got married recently.
I never asked.
What about you, Dong Hee? Don't you want to get married?
I'm getting married soon.
Really? Who is this guy?
We work together.
Is that right?
Congratulations, Dong Hee.
Thanks, Chan Woo.
By the way, I heard you were raising Jae Seok's child.
How did you know?
A few days ago,
a reporter I know came to see me and asked about you.
A reporter you know?
You mean, Reporter Cho Yoo Na?
Yes.
How do you know Reporter Cho?
She came to interview me.
I see.
So? You still can't get in touch with Jae Seok's wife?
No.
What?
What's wrong?
What's that woman doing here?
Do you know my manager?
What?
She's your manager?
Yes. What's wrong?
Hello, Ms. Baek.
- Hello, how have you been? - I've been well.
What's the matter?
Dong Hee.
Do you really not know who that woman is?
Ms. Baek? Who is she?
Jae Seok's wife.
What are you talking about?
That woman, Baek Seung Ju, is your late brother's wife.
What did you say?
- See you around. - See you.
Bye, have a good day.
(Bravo, My Life)
What if something happened to Dong Hee?
What's going on?
Jung Ho, why are you doing this?
If you're gone,
he'll miss you and want to see you.
Spare me a moment.
I can't believe you were gone all day.
What's with this attitude now?
Why did you abandon Him Chan?
