You can tell me comfortably.
Haven't your in-laws...
made their decision yet?
Well... Mr. Kim.
By any chance,
do you know Reporter Nam Dong U?
Reporter Nam Dong U who worked at Myeongmun News.
Do you know him?
If he was with Myeongmun News...
Yes, I remember him. I met him a few years ago...
as he was covering our company.
However, how do you know him, Ms. Kang Yeo Won?
He was my husband.
I heard that Reporter Nam had gotten into an unfortunate accident,
and passed away.
I didn't know...
he was your husband.
Both Mr. Hwang and I were very sad when we heard the news.
I'm sorry for your loss.
May I ask...
what kind of issue my husband was covering...
when you met him?
The reason why I remember him is...
because he wrote a truthful article...
about our company and Mr. Hwang's management philosophy...
with integrity as a journalist.
I recently remembered that Hana Beverages was the last one...
that my husband covered before he passed away.
I was a bit surprised,
and curious. That's why I asked that.
He was a great journalist with exceptional passion.
I see. Thank you for remembering him that way.
It seems that you have a special relationship with Hana Beverages.
Yes, I think I do.
Ms. Kang Yeo Won, you know how important...
this sparkling water project...
you're working on is, right?
Yes, I know that.
Since you have a special relationship with this company,
I hope you will bring good news soon.
If you have any trouble or questions regarding the work,
just let me know.
Yes, I'll do that, Mr. Kim.
Please tell Secretary Kim to come in.
It seems like Ms. Kang is in a different league now.
I think she went to see Mr. Kim again.
Well, her mother-in-law is the owner of the land...
that is so important for our company's success.
She deserves to be treated well.
How would it feel to become rich overnight?
Wouldn't it feel exciting as if you are flying in the sky?
Mr. Bong, how would you feel?
I'm not interested in things like that.
I knew it. You seem to have no greed for material wealth.
I was physically weak when I was little,
and had many brushes with death. Maybe that's why...
I believe there are more important things in life than material wealth.
Come to think of it, I don't think Ms. Kang is just happy.
What's the point of having rich in-laws?
His husband is gone.
I think you're right, Ms. Yang.
I mean, when good things happen,
it makes you think of someone you lost.
You're back, ma'am. I mean...
You're back, Ms. Kang.
- Did you go to see Mr. Kim? - Yes.
You must feel the pressure of high expectation from the company.
Mr. Bae, let's get going now.
Yes, sir.
We'll work outside of the office.
Are you saying that Hana Beverages lied about the country...
the ingredient is from?
Not long ago, I got a tip-off.
I came here because I have to confirm the truth...
with your company as well.
I don't know where you heard that,
but I'm very disappointed that you believe...
such a ridiculous rumor.
We'll find out whether it's a rumor or not...
if I keep following this case.
Reporter Nam Dong U was Ms. Kang Yeo Won's husband.
Why is his family out of all people the landowner?
Come in.
Did you want to see me, sir?
Find all the detailed information about Mr. Nam Deok Man's step-son.
As soon as possible.
- The one who died two years ago? - Yes.
Find out if he got along well with Mr. Nam's biological children...
and every other detail that we can use...
to purchase his land.
Also, from now on, keep an eye on Ms. Kang Yeo Won,
and let me know if you notice anything.
Mr. Kim, actually, earlier today,
Ms. Kang Yeo Won visited the purchasing team.
Why did she go there?
She asked for the ingredient ledger of Fresh Oriental Raisin.
The ingredient ledger?
Since you restricted the access to that file,
she couldn't check the ledger.
That file must not be disclosed to anyone through any channels.
Make sure the person in charge won't show it to anyone.
Yes, sir.
How much does she know about what happened to Nam Dong U?
("CEO Hwang Byeong Rae Opens up New Wave Era of Beverage Industry")
(Reporter Nam Dong U from Myeongmun News)
Ms. Kang, what are you doing?
I remember this interview article.
"The use of good quality ingredients produced in Korea..."
"is Hana Beverages' company philosophy and core value."
The product became a big hit as soon as it was launched.
I see.
By any chance, did you organize this interview?
No. The former manager organized the interview.
But he was held responsible when Ms. Hwang...
caused a controversy by pulling a big power trip,
and left the company.
And then Mr. Bong replaced him.
Then I guess...
Mr. Bong doesn't know much about the interview.
Most likely.
Why was Dong U covering the issue that is contrary to this article...
after the interview?
I should talk to the people Dong U met regarding this case.
(Daeyeong)
- Please enjoy it. - Thank you. Have a good day.
- Here. - Thank you for this, Grandpa.
You're welcome. Be careful because it's hot, okay?
Yes, Grandpa.
Hello. We have opened today.
We have opened today.
Hello.
- Excuse me. - Yes?
Where can I have flyers like this made?
Yes, Mr. Hwang.
I went to the community center to get the form as you asked.
Here you go, Mr. Hwang.
Thank you.
Here.
We'll finally register our marriage.
Ms. Yun, why are you still standing there?
Go and bring us some fruit.
Yes, Ms. Koo.
Fill in the form and finalize it within this week.
Gosh. I want them to wait for about a year...
after they get to know each other better.
You say that every single day.
Aren't you getting tired of it?
Since Ji Hun was a junior in college when I was in high school,
he must've been born in 1985.
February 19, 1985.
Maybe he was born in 1986.
How do you know?
Well...
Most people who were born in January or February back then...
entered school a year early.
Right, that's possible.
You should ask Ji Hun.
I'm home.
Oh, perfect timing.
- You're getting in just now? - Yes, Father.
I'm home, Mother.
Ji Hun, you were born in 1985, right?
No, I was born in 1986.
- Really? - Yes.
- You entered school a year early? - Yes.
My gosh.
You were right, Ms. Yun.
Well, did you have dinner?
I did.
I see.
Whose surname should we give to the baby?
We have to pick one of the parents' surnames.
I heard young people these days aren't fussy about such things.
Let's see. Jenny...
Choose ours, Hwang.
Ji Hun, you're fine with that, right?
Yes. I'll do as you say, Father.
You said you don't even know what your parents look like.
She couldn't even fill out the section about your parents.
Are you sure your surname is actually Kim?
Yes. I'm sure, Mother.
Gosh, this is so complicated.
Fill out the section about yourself.
I'll fill out the rest and submit it.
(Mother's name: Yun)
It's just a name. Why am I still...
I don't even know if she's alive or dead.
Trang.
Have you had a chance to think about what I mentioned?
Between Mr. Choi and I, whom will you choose?
I'm busy.
Don't you know how important the closing shift is?
You're being so difficult.
You see,
I have a million dollars.
Even if you're a multi-millionaire, I don't care.
Gosh, that's a total lie.
- I'm sure you're very surprised. - Il Nam.
I want to see you turning over a new leaf...
and setting your mind to working hard.
That's what's important to me.
I don't care about money.
Trang, they say that one has to be full before feeding others.
I can't turn things around if I don't have any money.
Even I'm this upset.
Ms. Wang must be so upset and worried.
I can just imagine, Il Nam.
Trang, I'm sorry.
I must've hurt your feelings a lot.
Let's put it all behind.
I'd like you to seriously consider what I said.
You see,
I'm no longer...
the pathetic loser you used to know.
Make sure you get some rest.
And lock the door.
Yeo Won, can you submit this when you get to work tomorrow?
This is...
Yeo Won.
Yes, Il Nam.
It's a business proposal.
Yes, I heard they plan to build a resort on our land.
I want to run a sauna at the resort.
Using red clay and the steam...
from the sparkling water. What do you think?
Good idea, right?
I don't think it's up to us to decide such things.
And the deal hasn't even been finalized yet.
That's exactly why we need to be aggressive about it.
It seems like...
they keep delaying things because we asked for more money.
We need to get in on the management side to get more out of it.
They're being like that because you asked for a crazy amount.
They seemed more anxious to finalize the deal than we do.
Don't you agree, Yeo Won?
Well, yes.
Mom's the problem now.
She's saying nothing about when and for how much she'll sell it.
We can't sell it because we're worried about upsetting her.
What if Hana Beverages gets annoyed by us...
wasting their time like this and decides not to buy the land?
At times like this, your role is so crucial.
You need to be a wise mediator between the one...
that wants to buy the land and the one that wishes to sell it.
However, you should...
obviously favor us a little. I mean, a lot.
Go talk to Mom. See if you can sound her out.
Find out what she's thinking.
Bo Ram, follow your mom...
and ask your grandma whether or not she wants to sell the land.
Mom, should I really ask Grandma...
whether or not she'll sell the land?
Ji Yeong, we're going upstairs.
Bo Ram's been sleepy all evening.
Gosh, this is driving me crazy.
(Registration Certificate)
Yeo Won must be put in a bind at work,
so I can't keep insisting on not selling the land.
I can't let those punks...
harass Yeo Won forever.
Would it be better to just sell the land?
(Hana Beverages)
I double-checked.
Nam Dong U is the stepson of Nam Deok Man, the landowner.
He was very close to Nam Deok Man's biological children.
Thank you. You may leave.
She asked for the ingredient ledger of Fresh Oriental Raisin.
Since you restricted the access to that file,
she couldn't check the ledger.
Yeo Ju, have you given up on your dream of becoming a fashionista?
No, I haven't.
It's just that I lost all my savings for studying abroad...
and can't even afford to buy clothes because of that con woman.
Since I'm receiving an inheritance, I'll buy you an outfit.
Do you want to go shopping?
I'll buy you some good food as well.
For real?
Yeo Ju, don't be such a loser.
Can't you hide your excitement a little?
- When would be good? - Forget it.
You're doing this out of pity.
No, that's not true.
Then why are you being like this all of a sudden?
I'm just worried about you giving up on fashion altogether.
That's called pity.
No! Don't do that, Yeo Ju.
Just don't.
Why not? My ponytail got loose, so I want to tie it again.
Do not do that in front of me.
Never.
What's with him?
What is wrong with me?
I mean, it's Yeo Ju of all people.
Why on earth is my heart fluttering?
I must come to my senses.
- Hi, Seon Hwa. It's me. - Hey, I Nam.
Ms. Hwang stepped out.
I can talk now.
Then can I ask you something?
What is it? Is everything okay?
Yes. It's about a friend of mine.
Is it possible to suddenly develop feelings for a friend...
whom you never found attractive in the past?
Number 1, it's possible. Number 2, no way.
Number 3, it's just crazy talk.
What's the answer?
What's going on?
You already like someone else?
You're hurting my feelings a little here.
No, it's not that.
I'll call you back.
Gosh, what is this?
My heart keeps fluttering no matter what she does.
Am I really going crazy?
Trang.
I told you to rest in your room when we have no customers.
What are you doing here?
Sang Mun said he would step out with Ji Yeong,
and asked me to do the dishes.
I'm almost done, Ms. Wang.
Please go in and get some rest.
Gosh. They've been closing the cafe so often lately.
And Sang Mun doesn't seem to care about house chores.
They've lost their minds.
Where did they go this time?
If you look at this side, these are all very popular.
Honey.
- How about this one? - It's nice.
Oh, my.
It's sophisticated.
My goodness. It's so unique.
- It's pretty. - Honey, let's go that way.
How nice.
This one is even prettier.
This one is our signature product.
- Really? - Yes.
What do you think?
Honey, you look so great in it.
You look pretty.
Really?
This one looks even prettier on you.
Be ready to be surprised. Isn't it cool?
Gosh, you look so cute.
Do I look cute?
I'm starving. Let's hurry.
- Are you hungry? - Yes.
(Daeyeong)
Are you saying that Reporter Nam Dong U...
was covering the case...
based on incorrect information?
That's right.
I don't know where he heard such a rumor,
but he even visited our farm,
and talked about an ingredient from China,
which was nonsense.
However, the access to the ingredient ledger of...
Fresh Oriental Raisin is restricted at our company as well.
Even so, it can't be true that Hana Beverages...
lied about the country where the ingredient they used was from.
Since Fresh Oriental Raisin was launched,
we've been the only ingredient supplier for the product.
It's been made with 100 percent of Korean ingredients.
I can stake my name, Park Ho Sik, on it.
Oh, I see.
Oh, gosh. It's almost time.
I'm sorry I can't treat you to dinner when you came so far.
That's okay. Thank you for seeing me...
on such short notice.
Mr. Park.
If you remember anything about the conversation you had that day,
please call me.
It's really important to me.
- I'm imploring you. - I'll do that.
Be safe.
Yes, she just left.
Did you do as I said?
As you said, I was being evasive to send her away.
But how did Reporter Nam Dong U's wife...
come here to see me?
Moreover, she said she works at Hana Beverages.
It makes no sense.
Mr. Park, all you have to do is keep your mouth shut...
just as you have until now.
If she calls you or visits you again,
just let me know.
It can't be true that Hana Beverages lied about the country where...
the ingredient they used was from.
Since Fresh Oriental Raisin was launched,
we've been the only ingredient supplier for the product.
It's been made with 100 percent of Korean ingredients.
I can stake my name, Park Ho Sik, on it.
(Ingredients from China, corruption)
(I must find out the truth. Hana Beverages)
Could Dong U have covered Hana Beverages...
based on incorrect information?
Yeo Won. Yeo Won, can you come downstairs?
Yes, Il Nam.
Yeo Won, did you negotiate the price of the land...
with your company?
Not yet.
Mother hasn't told me anything yet.
My gosh. She's dragging it on for so long.
Listen, Yeo Won. If we step in,
Ms. Wang will follow our decision.
We should hurry up.
We also found a perfect apartment. We should sign the contract soon.
- Will you buy an apartment? - Yes.
However, to send Yeong Jae abroad to study in the future,
one million dollars won't be enough.
I also want to get just 500,000 dollars more.
Yeo Won, try to raise the price at least just a little bit.
However, should I Nam get the same amount?
I mean, he doesn't share a single drop of blood with us.
Ji Yeong, what do you mean by that?
Yeo Won, didn't you know?
I Nam was a foundling...
My goodness. Dong U was so discreet.
He never told you about I Nam?
Then was I Nam really...
a foundling?
I thought Father had him with another woman.
I Nam is my dad's hometown friend's son.
My dad's friend and his wife passed away when I Nam was a baby.
My dad felt sorry for I Nam, so he took him under his wing.
Mother didn't want I Nam's feelings to be hurt,
so she said that Father had him with another woman,
and he is also Father's son...
while raising him.
Right, honey?
Il Nam, don't you think...
it's unfair for us to divide the money evenly?
Maybe it's a little unfair for us.
How about he gets half... No. How about he gets a quarter?
How dare you!
Ms. Wang.
- Mom. - Mother.
Mother.
What? Why?
- You punks! - What is it?
- Gosh. What's wrong? - My goodness.
- Ouch. - Oh, boy. Mother.
You can't even recognize your own siblings...
because you're blinded by money?
You mean brats.
I'm not going to sell that land.
I will never sell it!
- What? - Mother.
(Unasked Family)
Do you think we can't sell the land if you refuse to sell it?
Excuse me. Oh, my. Mr. Bong.
Mr. Bong, are you in charge of the project?
Il... Il Nam.
I Nam, can you take me for a drive on your new motorcycle?
Come on. Take me for a drive. Okay?
Buying that land won't be possible as my mother-in-law disapproves.
I'll find a way too.
Mr. Bong, hello.
I'm in charge of the land purchase of your family's land.
