(Episode 93)
Dong Hee.
Your brother's accident...
Can't you...
keep the truth buried?
What?
If I think about how much it hurt you and your family,
asking you this favor alone makes me feel terrible.
But I'll make sure to compensate you well.
Mr. Kang.
What are you saying?
Even your son's sincere apology wouldn't be good enough.
What did you just say?
You want to compensate us in return for keeping the truth buried?
Honey, stop it.
Listen, Mr. Kang.
Do you think that money can solve all problems?
Is that why you're offering compensation?
Of course not.
That's not what I meant, Ma,am.
Then what?
If that's not what you meant, what did you mean by that?
Please stop it, Auntie Myung Sook.
Stop doing what? Why would you say that?
Doesn't that make you angry?
He's trying to pay you chump change for your brother's life.
Aren't you angry?
Calm down, honey. Come on.
He's right, Myung Sook.
Please stand up now, Mr. Kang.
I'll give it some thought. So please stand up.
Dong Hee.
Why did you say you would think about it?
Are you going to accept the compensation...
and forget about Jae Seok's accident?
Is that it?
No. That's not why I said it.
Then why?
Why else did you say you would consider his offer?
Unless you wanted to give him false hope.
I'm not sure.
Since he was asking for my forgiveness on his knees,
I couldn't tell him that I would never do as he asked.
And I couldn't just ignore his desperate eyes either.
I understand. It must've been very hard for him to decide to come here.
I see why you couldn't refuse his favor right away.
What are you going to do now?
I'll find evidence to prove that Director Kang was the driver.
Only then can I suggest he should turn himself in again...
or report to the police.
You're right. That should be done first.
If you fail to find evidence, the truth will be buried.
But she hasn't found anything in the past eight years.
Where can she find evidence?
What are you doing here?
Just as you thought,
Dong Hee came to see me...
to tell me to turn myself in.
What?
What did you say to her?
Did you say what I told you to say?
That Cha Yeol was the driver.
Yes.
Good.
But...
she said with confidence that she would make me pay for my sin.
She said it with confidence?
Right.
I guess she had to at least bluff...
since she had nothing else to do.
She didn't seem to be bluffing.
She seemed so determined.
So?
Are you drinking because you're worried she might make it happen?
No.
I hate myself for being pathetic so much...
that I can't stay sober.
That's why I'm drinking.
You're back, Father.
What?
You even got down on your knees in front of her?
Why? You didn't have to do that.
What did Dong Hee say, Father?
Did she agree to take the money and let it go?
She said she would consider it.
Why does she have to think about it?
She can just accept it while the offer is on the table.
- Honey. - You know I'm right.
You apologized on your knees...
and offered compensation.
She should've accepted your offer even if she didn't like it.
Why did she have to be so stubborn?
Mom, please.
I'm sorry, Dad.
You went through such humiliation because of me.
I'm relieved that you know.
Anyway, whatever decision Dong Hee makes,
I'll fully respect her decision.
Sung Wook, be prepared for what's coming.
Yes, Dad.
Don't worry.
The only decision she'll make is to let you off.
Father.
Didn't you say you would convince Sung Wook?
Then how could you?
I'm sorry. I have no choice.
Sung Wook seemed so scared.
And thinking about the damage it could cause to my company,
I just hoped that Dong Hee would turn a blind eye.
I'm very sorry...
for letting you down.
Jung Eun, you know that the blind date is today, right?
Yes.
You'd better not send someone else as you did last time.
Don't worry. I won't do that again.
Since you agreed to meet him,
give him a chance, Jung Eun.
Honestly, I think he's better than Mr. Jang who is physically weak.
Mr. Jang is not physically weak.
I mean... I'm just saying.
By the way, Him Chan, why do you look so downcast?
Don't you have much appetite?
That's not it.
Then why are you so downcast?
By any chance, did you tell Him Chan?
Yes, I did.
No wonder.
Him Chan.
Are you very sad because you can't see Mr. Kang again?
Yes.
Why wouldn't he be?
Even I'm so sad too when I'm an adult.
I'm sorry, Uncle Jung Ho.
Don't apologize. It's not your fault.
But still...
Him Chan.
I'm sorry again.
By the way, Mom...
Did Mr. Kang do something wrong to you?
What?
Great-uncle Jung Ho said that it wasn't your fault.
Does it mean that Mr. Kang is to blame?
Why do you ask?
What did Mr. Kang do wrong?
Actually, Him Chan...
Mom.
I don't know what he did wrong,
but can't you forgive him just this once?
Can't you do that, Mom?
It's not something that can be solved like that.
I'm sorry to disappoint you, Him Chan.
Why? What do you mean by that?
You're too young to understand it now.
I'll explain to you when you grow up.
Okay?
You'll be late for school. Let's get going now.
Ms. Kim.
Did you post the internship ad on a job search website?
No, not yet.
Then until when will you keep that position vacant?
Is there no possibility that Dong Hee will return?
Are you waiting for Dong Hee to come back?
Is that why you didn't post an ad?
No, that's not the reason.
I'm just saying that it won't be easy to find an intern as good as Dong Hee.
I don't think we can find anyone as competent as Dong Hee either.
How about we ask Dong Hee to come back?
What's so special about Dong Hee?
There are so many other talented people.
Stop saying useless stuff.
Post an ad on a job search website.
Understood.
Cha Yeol must feel uncomfortable when we talk about Dong Hee.
Why wouldn't he?
(Seo Dong Hee)
It's Dong Hee.
Hurry up and give it to Cha Yeol.
Cha Yeol, Dong Hee is calling you.
Dong Hee?
Come on. Answer it.
Then I'll leave you alone.
Thanks.
Hello?
It's me.
Hey.
I heard that my father went to your house yesterday.
I'm really sorry about that.
I'm not calling you because of that.
Then why...
I have something to ask you about.
Can you spare me some time later this evening?
You have something to ask me about? What is it?
I'll tell you when I see you.
Can you spare me some time?
Of course.
Okay. Then I'll see you after work.
(Hyena Hair Salon)
Welcome.
Hey, I told you to stay at home.
My morning sickness got better. I'm okay now.
Besides, you turned three customers away yesterday.
That's not important.
Thunder matters most.
It's not like anything will happen to Thunder because I work.
That's not true.
Have you forgotten?
That you had a miscarriage.
Why would you bring that up?
It's not a good memory.
I know. I just want you not to push yourself...
and end up losing the baby like last time.
Just take care of Thunder.
And let me take care of the hair salon.
I'll be careful.
And I'm doing this for Thunder.
You can't raise a child without money.
My goodness. You're so stubborn.
I said I would be fine.
Welcome. Oh, my, hello. What would you like to get done today?
A perm.
Got it. Then we'll wash your hair first.
Tae Pyung, wash her hair, please.
Got it. This way, please.
Okay.
I wish I had met you last time.
But we finally meet each other after many things happened.
Right.
Maybe because you're a writer,
you look very intelligent.
You must be influenced by prejudice.
I'm not that intelligent.
You're modest too.
You're exactly my type.
I think I heard...
that you had said the same thing about Hye Ran. Am I wrong?
Oh, Hye Ran?
I did like her appearance.
But I broke up with her because we didn't see eye to eye.
How so?
Whenever we met,
she talked about luxury fashion brands.
And she had a subtle way of pressuring me to buy her a gift.
I felt too burdened to see her.
I mean, if she wanted a designer purse, she should've bought it with her money.
Why would she want me to buy it for her?
Wouldn't you agree?
You're right.
Jung Eun,
you're not that kind of person, right?
Well...
Of course not.
Then you pass.
Pass! I approve!
(Hana Dumplings)
This is ridiculous. I'm totally upset.
What's the matter this time?
Tae Pyung told me that Jung Eun is...
meeting Jin Seung Nam on a blind date.
Oh, I see.
Even though we broke up,
this is not cool, don't you think?
Hang on. I thought you were happy with him.
Why did you break up with him?
You said he was exactly your type.
I only liked his appearance.
We didn't see eye to eye.
Didn't you two have anything in common?
All he ever talked about were muscles and health.
What was I supposed to talk about with him?
And he was so stingy.
He never bought me steak. Not even once.
He made me eat chicken breast every time.
By the way, aren't you upset?
About what?
I'm talking about Jung Eun. You guys just broke up,
and she already went on a blind date.
Aren't you upset about that?
Why would I be upset about it?
I'd be happy for her if she finds a good man.
Are you serious?
Of course, I mean it.
He always lies about how he feels.
You're early.
I tried to come earlier than you.
You're here. Have a seat.
I'll order some tea first. What would you like to have?
That's okay.
Since I asked you to meet me, it's on me.
Does coffee sound okay?
What?
Yes.
Why did Dong Hee call Cha Yeol?
I don't know.
She said she would think about the offer.
Does she want to forget everything...
and get back together with Cha Yeol?
Probably not.
How do you know that?
Cha Yeol was involved in her brother's accident.
It must not be easy for her to take him back.
What about you?
Pardon?
Was it easy for you...
to decide to stay married to Sung Wook?
Mother.
I'm sorry.
I shouldn't have said that.
You said you had something to ask me about.
What is it?
The car involved in the accident.
What did you do with the car?
Was it scrapped?
I think so.
Why do you ask?
I want to find evidence to prove that Director Kang was the driver.
So that my brother can finally rest in peace...
and you won't be wrongfully accused.
So go on and tell me more.
Who had it scrapped?
Probably, it was Mr. Cheon.
Who is Mr. Cheon?
My mother's chauffeur.
He quit his job not long after the accident.
I think that my mother asked him to take care of the car...
and let him go with compensation.
Then I should find Mr. Cheon first.
Do you have his number?
No.
But I think I can get his number.
Then can you do that for me?
You don't have to do anything.
I'll find evidence or whatever needs to be done.
No. I already told you...
that I wanted to get to the bottom of Jae Seok's wrongful death.
So when you get Mr. Cheon's contact information,
call me.
Okay. I'll do that then.
Then I'll get going now.
Hey...
Are you looking for a new job?
Why do you ask?
If you haven't found one,
shall I ask my father to help you with that?
No.
I can take care of myself.
Don't mind me.
How did the blind date go?
It was okay.
Why? You don't like him?
I don't know.
Why don't you know?
I heard that he liked you so much.
Really?
So meet him at least three more times, okay?
Will do, then.
Obviously, she doesn't like him.
Does she have to meet him three more times?
You should see a person more than once to get to know him.
She could grow on him over time.
Did you meet Dong Hee?
I guess Seung Ju tells you everything.
Tell me. What did you talk about with her?
Are you that curious?
Why don't you tell her...
to take the money while she can?
She might not even get any money if she keeps being stubborn.
I don't know where you get all the confidence,
but it won't turn out as you want it to.
You think so?
Then try all you want.
Thank you for the water.
Mr. Kim.
Yes, Cha Yeol.
Can I talk to you briefly?
Of course.
Mr. Cheon's phone number?
Yes. Do you have his number?
Of course. Just a second.
Oh, here it is.
I'll text it to you.
Thanks.
Done.
I got your text. Let me check.
The number you have dialed is not in service.
Please check the number, and try again.
It says the number doesn't exist.
Really?
That was the only contact information of him that I had. I'm sorry.
Then do you happen to know where he lives?
I don't know that much about him.
Oh, right. I heard that his mother was running a snack bar...
around Geumdong Intersection.
Why don't you visit there?
It's called Smile Snacks.
Mr. Kim.
Why did you go upstairs?
I talked to Cha Yeol.
What did you talk about with him?
- Mr. Kim, let's get going. - Yes?
Yes, sir.
Smile Snacks at Geumdong Intersection?
Yes.
Okay. Then I'll visit the shop.
Let me go with you.
I'll be there during my lunch break.
That's okay.
I'll go by myself. I'll call you if I need your help.
- I should go now. - Dong Hee.
Dong Hee...
(Smile Snacks)
Excuse me.
Welcome.
Doesn't Mr. Cheon Jong Dae's mother run this snack bar?
Mr. Cheon Jong Dae's mother?
Who's Mr. Cheon Jong Dae's mother...
Oh, I guess you're talking about the previous owner.
She sold this shop to me last year...
and retired.
Oh, I see.
Then can you give me her address?
Her address?
It must be written on the contract.
Right. Give me a minute.
I clearly remember that I put it in here.
Oh, here it is.
Did you want to see me, Ms. Choi?
I'm just wondering...
what you talked about with Cha Yeol this morning.
What did you two talk about?
Cha Yeol asked me about Mr. Cheon who used to work for you.
Cha Yeol asked you about Mr. Cheon?
Is this it?
This is it.
Who are you?
Pardon?
Who are you? And why were you lurking around my house?
Oh, do you live here?
By any chance, are you Mr. Cheon Jong Dae?
Oh, are you here to see my older brother?
Are you Mr. Cheon's younger brother?
I'm here to see Mr. Cheon.
Is he home now?
Why do you want to see him?
I have something to ask him about.
About what? What do you want to know?
About something that happened while he was working at Inha Fashion.
I'm here to ask him about it.
Can I see him now?
Sorry to disappoint you.
But my brother is gone.
Pardon? What do you mean by that?
He's gone?
My brother died a long time ago.
What? Mr. Cheon passed away?
(Bravo, My Life)
- What did the doctor say? - That I might have a miscarriage.
If I get treatment regularly,
I can get pregnant again, right?
Is Mr. Cheon dead?
I have nothing to worry about now.
Who was the lady?
She wanted to ask about what happened when he worked at Inha Fashion.
Is there a dashcam among the belongings...
that Mr. Cheon left behind?
The dashcam that was in the car involved in the accident?
