Goo Ji Eun!
- Auntie Ha Na. - What?
What's going on, Ha Na?
Ji Eun stole the outfit the chairwoman bought for me.
What?
She won't pick up.
Hey.
- Did you come in just now? - Yes.
I got some gimbap. You should have some before you go.
I don't have an appetite. I'm leaving.
Bye. Have a great day.
(Hardship Vending Machine)
Gosh, she really won't give up.
I'll wear it for a while, then give it back to you.
Darn it.
(Bring it back with the tag! I'm returning it to the chairwoman!)
Bring it back with the tag!
I'm returning it to the chairwoman!
What's she saying?
Why would she give back what she got?
My gosh.
Bring it back while she's nice, you thieving brat!
Has he lost his mind?
I was just borrowing it shortly. Why are they making a huge scene?
They're so annoying!
All right. Let me see you.
Santa Claus is coming to the kindergarten today, right?
- You'll get presents! Good for you. - Yes.
What do you want from Santa Claus, Auntie?
What do I want?
One moment.
Hello, Detective Min.
Do you have the result?
Yes, Eun Chong's DNA didn't match with hers.
Is that so?
Yes, I understand. Thank you for your hard work.
Yes, goodbye.
- Eun Chong. - She wasn't my grandmother?
No.
I think it's good news for you.
You may get to meet your real grandma.
Okay.
Let me see you.
He was the boy I met last time at the hospital.
Okay. Like this.
(Chamsae Kindergarten)
You can't suddenly back out.
The children were looking forward to this.
Can you send us someone else?
I'll look for someone, too.
Whose grandfather are you?
Yes, hello.
The children just seemed quite adorable.
Excuse me.
- Merry Christmas. - Thank you.
- Lee Ro Un. - Yes!
- Merry Christmas. - Thank you.
Kim Tae Hoon.
- Merry Christmas. - Thank you.
(Lee Eun Chong)
Lee Eun Chong.
Yes!
Grandpa, are you all right?
- Grandpa, are you all right? - Grandpa, are you all right?
Merry Christmas.
- Grandpa, are you all right? - Grandpa, are you all right?
- Merry Christmas. - Merry Christmas!
Please have this.
Thank you very much for your help.
The man we hired to play Santa suddenly couldn't come.
But I thought you'd be perfect when I saw your beard.
I hope the children liked it.
They were thrilled.
This isn't much, but it's for your trouble.
No, it's all right. Thank you for letting me do this.
Thank you for giving me a chance to do this.
I'm sorry.
I began to cry more often as I reached my old age.
Yes.
Please call me anytime whenever you need help.
I already retired, so I didn't have a business card.
Please call me at this number.
I'll run over anytime.
Yes, Mr. Han Min Su.
So,
- about that boy, Eun Chong... - Do you know him?
No.
He looked very bright and energetic.
Doesn't he? And he's the most considerate, too.
His parents must've brought him up well.
Yes.
Santa.
Wait, why are you wearing a different outfit?
I can't let people find out who I am, so I change my clothes...
when I go out.
But Santa,
can I have a different present than this one?
Why? Do you not like it?
Well, it's not that.
Instead of a present, can you grant my auntie's wish?
What's your auntie's wish?
My wish is for our family to be healthy,
be on good terms, and live happily ever after.
It's for our family to be healthy,
be on good terms, and live happily ever after.
All right. I'll do my best...
to let her wish come true.
You can keep that present.
But Santa.
Then, who gives you a present?
I don't need one...
I'll give it to you!
The NFS won't make a mistake.
If you still feel uneasy, you can update it regularly with me.
And you should check if Mr. Yoon has read his e-mail.
Yes, right.
(Unread)
He hasn't read it.
He should've left his number instead of sending me pottery.
Even if I died tomorrow, he couldn't show up at my funeral.
It hasn't been a day yet.
I'm sure he'll read it.
I'll keep talking to the police...
to make sure they quickly transfer...
your daughter's DNA to the NFS.
Please let me know anytime if there's anything I can do.
You know that I'm always on standby, right?
Yes, thank you.
Also, Richard Han postponed his arrival to Korea.
He must've done that after noticing our suspicion.
Why does he avoid meeting us?
So, why don't you try to get him on a video call?
Santa, please stay healthy.
Where could he have gone to as soon as he arrived in Korea?
It seemed so important that he moved up his arrival.
It must be about his family,
but he never says anything about them.
The two of us don't know anything about him.
It's Mr. Han.
Yes, Mr. Han. Where are you?
I need to see you today.
Yes, I'll see you there.
I met Eun Chong.
He was Yu Jin's son.
What's your mother's name?
Lee Du Na.
He said his mother's name was Lee Du Na.
Congratulations.
Can you find out...
about Eun Chong and Ms. Goo's living conditions?
Yes, sir.
And is the reinvestigation request for a hit-and-run accident...
only available for the victim's family?
Generally speaking, yes.
But if you believed it was a crime and not just an accident,
then you could make a request even if you weren't family.
However, even if you don't have hard evidence,
you need to provide new information or circumstantial evidence.
Could Eun Chong fall into danger...
if the reinvestigation began?
We cannot overlook the possibility.
I felt bad for her on our way to the NFS.
It'd be better if she could be with her husband in times like these.
Aunt Yeo Jin stayed strong through the toughest time alone.
I find Uncle Sung Ho kind of awful.
How could he do this for 20 years?
It had been too long.
Anyway, we can only learn if someone contaminated the DNA on purpose...
only after we learn if his DNA was also contaminated.
But he won't check his e-mail.
Aunt Yeo Jin sent him an e-mail?
She didn't have his number or address.
That was all she could do.
I hope he checks it soon.
I can't let him do that.
In my opinion, they seem to miss each other a lot.
Then, why would they spend 20 years apart?
They were too afraid to be reunited.
It could feel like the pain might return...
and make their lives harder. They're afraid.
I don't know. I'm not sure about that.
Are you free this afternoon?
I'm doing an on-site survey for the Dubai tourists with Ms. Goo.
Do you want to come?
No, I'm busy, too.
The chairwoman requested at least a video call...
now that Mr. Richard Han postponed his arrival.
I'd prefer that she asked me this herself,
but I heard it from you again, Mr. Hwang.
- I'll check my schedule. - Okay.
Didn't you appoint Ms. Goo?
- Yes. - Could she really trust you?
I thought she might end up falling.
You want us to fall, don't you?
But I'm sorry.
The Dubai contract is working out wonderfully.
You should stick to one thing.
If you worry about her, do that. If you ignore her, do that.
You turned a blind eye to her...
when she almost got kicked out after getting framed as a thief.
Now you're worried about her fall, so it is quite confusing.
I hate confusion...
when it comes to both people and work.
Ms. Goo.
Where are we going again?
I know most tourist attractions, so we don't need to go there.
We'll go to a Korean restaurant and the Kimchi Experience Center.
I'll get the car. Wait for me at the front gate.
Yes, sir.
Going out to do an on-site survey for the Dubai tourists?
I hope you aren't wasting your time.
But still, good luck until the end.
You must bring this to a successful finish.
You don't have to mind him.
We just have to do our job. Let's go.
Okay.
Let's go with Course A and customize the main dish.
Yes, please leave out meat from japchae...
and add in more mushrooms.
You can't use eggs, either,
so please top it with paprika.
Yes, I understand.
- We cannot have any salted seafood. - Okay.
I think traditional hanbok will feel more authentic than modernized ones.
Can you replace this with traditional hanbok?
Then, it'll cost a little more.
We'll pay the difference.
- Please make it traditional. - Okay.
- Hey. - Mr. Han?
What happened, Mr. Han?
Your outfit and that beard.
Do I look good?
Yes, it looks natural on you.
Why are you in a disguise?
This is how I'll look from now on.
From now on, Richard Han's identity will remain absolutely hidden.
May I ask why you're taking things this far?
The reason? You'll find out soon enough.
Yes, sir.
When we said your arrival was postponed,
Chairwoman Shin requested a video call.
If you turn it down, she'll grow more suspicious of you.
Try to postpone it as much as you can.
And she has begun to look for her daughter?
Yes, sir. A few days ago, there was someone...
who matched her DNA on the database,
so she conducted a parentage test, too.
She must've been greatly shocked to find out she wasn't her daughter.
I see.
I heard her DNA was contaminated.
If this was intentional...
It must've been done by those who are after Hyesung Group.
Can you find out who it is?
The strongest candidates are...
Yoon Se Young, her mother, and Hwang Jin Goo.
People are always betrayed by those who are the closest.
- Chairwoman Shin must know that. - Yes, sir.
So, her approach will become even more cautious.
She went to the NFS today and registered her DNA.
Don't let her daughter's DNA go over to the NFS easily.
Drag it out as much as you can by using legal grounds.
I'll pay you as soon as you're done with your job.
I need to find more ways to get more money.
Director Choi, I'll meet you there in an hour.
One moment.
(Se Young)
I'm getting another call. Bye.
Hey, what is it?
She sent him an e-mail?
But Uncle Sung Ho hasn't read it.
What if he reads it and checks if the DNA is contaminated?
Do you think it's easy to prove someone's intention?
You don't have to be scared.
You keep saying that, but words aren't helping.
Stop whining!
Just trust me.
I have to go. Bye.
I taught her all her life,
yet she remained too soft-hearted and docile.
Are you leaving?
The duck soup was still untouched.
You should boil it and have it with the chairwoman...
Why would she eat something that was already days old?
That rude brat.
You and I...
would be the same without the chairwoman.
No matter what the situation is, I'm still your in-law.
I'm only putting up with you because of Jin Goo.
Anyway, why is she so sullen again?
Why haven't you found any dirt to kick Head Director Goo out?
I couldn't find anything.
He has no girl problems like most men do and no money trouble either.
If you couldn't find any dirt,
you should put some on him and give him some.
How long are we going to wait?
We might end up getting caught instead.
Do you think he's an easy fight?
When Richard Han returns to Korea...
And when exactly is he coming?
Is he actually coming?
Well, it was postponed, so we'd have to wait.
Good grief.
Hey.
I need to find some funding.
Can you take out a fake loan?
That's too dangerous.
If anyone outside hears about this...
I recently found 60,000m² of land for sale.
It's near the new town of Eunseong,
so it'll go up at least threefold if you build a resort on it.
"Threefold?"
Are you sure about this?
Find Choi Myung Ji when it comes to real estate.
Don't you know that everything turns to gold...
once it goes through me?
There's some company fund you can finance, right?
Let's start with that.
Goodness. My gosh.
Hey, duckie.
Both you and I are suffering a lot.
I went through a lot to make this,
so it would've been great if she had a bite.
I didn't expect to bring it back just the way I took it there.
Gosh. Goodness.
My goodness! Oh, no.
No! Wait, that pot. My gosh.
Goodness. Hey.
Oh, no.
- My goodness. - Granny.
My goodness.
- Do you know her? - Yes.
She's President Hwang's mommy.
She is?
So, she's my sister's boss' mother?
My gosh. Goodness gracious.
Granny.
Hey, little one. It's you.
Goodness, thank you.
Hello. Nice to meet you.
I heard you were President Hwang's mother.
I am the younger brother of his subordinate, Guide Goo Ha Na.
My name is Goo Ji Chang.
Is that so? Sure.
Good grief. The delicious broth is all gone.
Goodness, what a shame.
This must be the duck you bought...
when your grocery bag was mixed up with my sister's.
There's abalone and octopus, too!
- Gosh, it looks so healthy. - Gosh, it looks so healthy.
Do you want some?
Why won't you eat, Granny?
Are we devouring this and making you lose your appetite?
No, it's nice to see you two eat so well.
- Chew a lot and eat up. - Okay!
Then, I'll go back to eating.
Granny, have a bite.
Goodness, you're so kind.
Let me give you one, too.
Goodness, it's all right.
Gosh, you're making my hand feel embarrassed.
Then, I'll have it.
You don't have to mind me. Dig in.
- Okay. - Okay.
The tourists from Dubai can't eat any of these.
- Even tteokbokki? - No.
It's made with anchovy broth.
What do they eat?
They had...
Yes, they liked hotteok. And fish-shaped buns.
Tteokbokki is the origin of K-street food.
It's a shame that they won't get to taste this in Seoul.
My mom makes the meanest tteokbokki.
I'll let you try it if I get a chance.
Okay.
You have no idea your mother is a maid for the chairwoman's family.
Have some. It's hot, so blow on it.
Thank you.
- Ouch. - Goodness.
- Are you okay? Were you burned? - Yes.
Hey, you just hit her. You need to apologize.
Sorry.
How is that a proper attitude for an apology?
What do you want?
Mr. Hwang, I'm fine.
It's fine, so just go.
We're sorry.
You aren't okay. You burned yourself.
Please let my hand go.
Right. I'm sorry.
Where's the pharmacy?
Well, Mr. Hwang.
Someone's calling you.
My phone.
Hello, you've reached Hwang Jin Goo.
Yes, the interpreter. Hello.
Hassan is here?
Yes, I understand.
Hassan wants to meet at Restaurant Mirim.
And you, too.
Me?
He said you were the savior who found Amira's brooch,
so he wanted to meet you.
I was really happy, too. Thank you.
Why don't we have a seat and talk?
May I ask what suddenly brings him here without notice?
He wanted to meet you today...
because he'd have to postpone sending tourists for a while,
the ones that were to come in starting next month.
What do you mean?
Hassan and President Hwang are in a meeting?
Yes, today will be the last supper.
Right, I thought you said your sister was a tour guide.
Which agency does she work at?
She works for Hyesung Tour.
That's a twist of fate.
Is that all right with you?
Yes, you don't have to worry.
So, where have you been?
There was someone I missed.
(Unread)
What on earth is he up to?
You need to check your e-mail!
He still hasn't read it.
Who could have contaminated the DNA?
Who would you suspect the most if you were me?
Someone who would suffer the most if your daughter returned.
In that case...
It's my personal take, ma'am.
Anybody would think so.
Se Young and Myung Ji would suffer the most.
And Jin Goo.
What do you think about President Hwang?
Be honest.
I don't think his motivation is personal gain.
He wanted to repay your kindness, so he took up a job at Hyesung...
and decided to marry Ms. Yoon, too.
Well, of course, he must love her a lot.
But I believe the foremost reason was to keep you safe.
But of course, I can't tell everything he is thinking.
Was it because you have known him for a long time?
You have a profound trust in him.
What about Se Young and Myung Ji?
You must stay suspicious of everyone right now.
And that includes Mr. Hwang, Ms. Yoon, and her mother.
But it's also dangerous to become suspicious...
without any hard evidence.
I should be careful.
Your business was suspended for three months?
What happened?
Local Dubaian travel agencies...
reported his business for breaking the law.
Going out to do an on-site survey for the Dubai tourists?
I hope you aren't wasting your time.
May we check the official notice of business suspension?
Yes, you may.
It'd be three months at most,
so he'd resume the tour after that.
I understand the situation,
but you are aware this may be a breach of contract, right?
What can we do?
Let's sign a supplementary contract apart from the original contract.
Please put our terms into the supplementary contract.
He'll do that.
But of course, under the term that Ms. Goo is the exclusive guide.
Me?
The original contract was sealed under the same term.
- You didn't know? - What?
So, you hired me because of the contract term...
with the Dubaian business.
You couldn't seal the deal unless I was here.
- Yes. - Yet you kept that quiet...
and told me to come to work...
- like I was a charity case. - That's not the case.
I tried to tell you. I did.
I kept missing the right time to do it.
But all these are nothing but cowardly excuses.
I have no excuses to make.
I'm so sorry.
You must've had fun toying around with me.
I'm going home.
Ms. Goo.
Ms. Goo, wait.
Please hear me out until the end.
Right, if the contract with Dubai gets called off,
will I automatically be fired?
No, it won't get called off,
and even if it does, it won't hurt you in any way.
But first, get in the car.
I'm taking the bus.
We live in the same neighborhood. You don't need to spend money.
The bus doesn't come often, and you'll have to call for a taxi.
Mind your own and go.
What can I do?
What can I do to make it up to you?
First, you need to let go of me.
That hurts. Let go of me!
You deserve to be mad,
and I am utterly embarrassed right now.
I wanted to tell you everything from the start.
Did someone stop you?
Was it Ms. Yoon?
No.
- Hassan is in Seoul? - Yes.
He's meeting President Hwang and Ms. Goo at Restaurant Mirim.
Why is Goo Ha Na there?
Hassan wanted to meet her.
They got a call during their on-site survey...
and went there right away.
Why is Hassan in Seoul?
Mr. Hwang didn't know, either.
Goo Ha Na shouldn't find out we got the contract because of her.
If it wasn't Ms. Yoon, then what was the reason?
The chairwoman also knew I was why you got this contract.
You heard that? Why didn't you tell me?
I thought she mistook me for someone else.
Only I became a total idiot.
I apologize sincerely for this.
You can say whatever you want, so just get in the car.
- Let's talk on our way back. - No, thank you.
It's after hours, so please excuse me.
You have five minutes left.
It's past five on my watch.
Your watch is too fast. Mine is accurate.
So, get in the car.
Get in the car and say everything you want to.
Man, I can't believe this nonsense.
I don't care if it's work hours. You can't treat your staff like...
Buckle up.
- Hello? - Where are you?
Are you still at Restaurant Mirim?
We just walked out.
Why was Hassan here?
- Who was that? - Let go of me!
- Is Goo Ha Na next to you? - I'll call you at home.
This is kidnapping!
Yes, it is.
So, stay still.
(Cinderella Game)
You look nice, Auntie Ha Na!
I earned this with my performance, so I'd wear it proudly from today.
You two are wearing matching outfits.
- You need to apologize to her. - No!
Ms. Goo Ha Na?
The Goo siblings are something.
You're nothing but a fraud.
And you like that fraud, so what does that make you?
Please wait just a little longer. We'll meet soon.
Excuse me. Hey.
Yes, I am Eun Chong's guardian. What's going on?
"Child abuse?"
