(Episode 10)
How's Mom?
She hasn't come around from the anesthesia yet.
We'll never know...
where it hurts or what the problem is if she doesn't talk.
Did your mother-in-law say anything?
No.
Nobody's telling us anything.
It's so frustrating.
The doctor is nowhere to be seen because of an urgent surgery.
Goodness.
Isn't it obvious?
She was brought out of the OR the moment she went in.
What will happen to her now?
(Integrated Nursing Care Service Ward)
You can't go in. The doctor is not in his office.
Move.
I'm patient Kim Hye Kyung's daughter.
Doctor.
Please proceed with my mom's surgery.
Please.
I'm sorry.
Aren't you a doctor?
Isn't saving lives the top priority for doctors?
You need to save the patient first.
She doesn't have some trivial illness.
She has cancer, and it can be fatal if she misses the right moment.
You know better than anyone else.
How about transferring to a different hospital?
I trusted you and waited dearly for the day of the surgery.
Don't do this.
Please.
Please, Doctor.
Help us.
Please perform the surgery, Doctor.
I have no choice.
It was an order from the hospital director.
And all donations were going to get cut off.
Sacrificing more patients...
to save one shouldn't happen more than anything.
Instead of talking to me,
persuade the chairman.
That's the surest route.
(My one and only)
Hello?
Congratulations. You are five weeks into your pregnancy.
Jin Woo, do you believe that baby in her stomach is yours?
Even though she lies like a rug?
Well, I don't and can't.
My mom couldn't get her surgery today.
Can't you hear me?
My mom didn't get her surgery today.
Did you already know about it?
Did you?
What do you think you're doing?
My mom couldn't get her surgery today.
Did you know?
How would I know?
I heard you helped my mom get admitted to the hospital.
And even got her surgery scheduled.
I did, like a total fool.
Mother stopped the surgery.
Let's go to the hospital together.
Please help my mom get surgery.
Please.
I beg you.
Help her, honey.
Please.
Bring that guy to me first.
If that jerk confirms everything's a lie and nothing happened,
I'll help.
- That's not important right now. - Why is it not?
Put yourself in my shoes.
I had an affair with an ex-classmate.
I went to a hotel, spent the night, and did all sorts of things with her.
Can you accept it?
You said it yourself that you're going to meet him.
So let's do that together.
What is it? You can't do it?
Where did that confidence of yours go?
Are you pulling out now?
You're the same.
Both Mother and you. How can you toy with a person's life?
A person's life is at stake here.
At worst, she could even die.
She's not some stranger.
She's my mom.
Your mother-in-law.
Jin Woo.
I beg you.
Help me just this once.
I'll get on my knees. Please.
I beg you.
Jin Woo.
Please save my mom.
Please, Jin Woo.
Just this once.
Did you stop my mother-in-law's surgery?
If you're drunk, just wash up and go to bed.
Call the hospital.
Tell them to resume the surgery.
Didn't you hear me?
How am I supposed to face my mother-in-law?
She's not your mother-in-law.
Postponing the surgery a day or two won't kill her.
But what if something actually happens?
What if she passes away?
They say one's life and death are in the hands of the almighty.
So how could that be my fault?
Whether she lives or dies is up to her fate.
But you stopped the surgery.
She should blame herself for not being able to care for her own mother,
not me.
One's capability is also one's fate and fortune.
There's a possibility that guy lied.
We promised to confirm with him again.
You're such a pushover.
She'd do anything to save her mom.
What do you mean?
Does confessing the truth to you, then changing her words...
make it a fact?
Stop being fooled by her words. Try to think rationally.
Are you saying that Soo Yeon and that guy may have planned it all out?
The most humiliating thing happened in the history of our family.
She had an affair.
She made us a laughing stock in front of the entire country...
and ruined SA Group's reputation.
What good came of letting her into the family?
This is the very reason I was against her.
This is the consequence of accepting someone with no class.
There's a limit to my patience.
She dug her own grave. I won't help her get out of it.
I don't care if she or her mother dies in the first place.
Mom.
Divorce her. The surgery will come after that.
It could be a lie.
If you want to believe that, let's wait.
Wait and see who's right.
(Integrated Nursing Care Service Ward)
Mommy's sorry.
You were startled, weren't you?
Just a bit longer...
Hang in there just a bit longer.
How's Mom doing?
She woke up from the anesthesia for a moment,
then went back to sleep. I guess she can't stay awake.
Have you met Jin Woo?
You must've seen him if you went to his office.
Yes, for a short while.
Did you tell him?
About the house.
His in-laws are about to be turned out of their house.
Who would turn a blind eye to that?
I couldn't tell him. And Dad made sure I didn't.
You're so stubborn.
Both of you need to swallow your pride.
He didn't even call when he knew Auntie's surgery was today.
Does he even care?
Mom, are you okay?
I feel as if I got a good night's sleep.
How did it go? Was my surgery a success?
You didn't have surgery, Auntie.
You only got anesthetized.
Is it bad?
No, Mom. That's not it.
The doctor got double-booked,
so he had to take care of the critical patient first.
He'll reschedule your surgery soon.
She's right. His schedule overlapped.
Trust Soo Yeon and wait.
You know how powerful her in-laws are. Don't worry.
(Chairman Cha Hwa Yeong)
Come in.
Hello, Ms. Cha.
Goodness.
Then I'll take my leave.
And I'm here, Ms. Cha.
What brings you here again without notice, Ms. Ko?
I forgot to send you...
congratulatory flowers for the recent launching show.
This one's a fig tree.
It bears fruit.
Once it does, you're going to share it with me, right?
Ms. Ko, coming here out of the blue...
Gosh, forget it. You don't have to thank me.
We're too close for that.
Yes, what great luck.
I heard plants...
grow really well with good energy.
Having done such an amazing job at the launching show,
you'll soon have a botanical...
This fig tree will grow in no time, won't it?
Grow up well, okay?
Gosh, look at these leaves.
Grow big, okay?
I didn't know you had a guest.
No, your report was first.
She came in without an appointment, so I was taken aback too.
Who...
The one from the airport!
Right?
Yes. I'm Seo Yu Ra, the senior manager of the design team.
I was wondering who Ms. Cha brought over from the US.
I see she scouted a beautiful and talented woman.
Nice to meet you. And I'm...
Chairman Ko Mi Sook, right?
I've heard a lot about you.
What an honor to have you recognize me.
Are you from the States?
Where are you staying in Korea?
I'm staying with Ms. Cha.
I'm so curious now.
I wonder how excellent you are...
for Ms. Cha to take you into her house.
My gosh, this ring!
Isn't this your family's heirloom,
Ms. Cha?
Ms. Ko, we better get on with our work.
My goodness, I got carried away.
I'm busy too.
Then I'll see you again next time.
Aren't you shocked at how badly someone can lack common sense?
I can see she's quite a unique character.
Mr. Kim, get rid of this right away.
I didn't interrupt you, did I?
Painting isn't an easy job.
You put your soul into every brush stroke,
so I can't imagine how tiring it must be.
I brought some snacks in case you were hungry.
Please eat it, Father.
Seo Jun, Grandma is a little unwell.
Do you remember Mommy telling you?
So I can't go home for a few more days.
Don't cry. Wipe your tears.
Seo Jun.
You know...
how much Mommy loves you, right?
Yes.
I love you too, Mommy.
If something happens, talk to Ms. Yu Ra.
I asked her to take care of you.
Okay.
Mom, you're coming back, right?
You're going to come back because you miss me, right?
I'll be back no matter what.
I promise.
I'll be there soon.
Just wait for a little bit.
Okay.
I'll be a good boy for Grandma and Grandpa.
Mom, make sure you come back. Okay?
It's me.
I need you to look into something for me.
Dong Ha. Hurry.
Jin Woo.
Are you here alone?
Yes. You?
Say hello. This is Dong Ha, the greatest guy in the world.
My future boyfriend.
- Hong Jin A. - What?
Aren't I right?
Say hello. This is Hong Jin Woo, my one and only older brother.
Hello. My name is Kang Dong Ha.
Sure. I usually don't carry my business cards...
That's all right.
How could I not know who you are, President Hong?
I'll take Jin A home before it gets too late.
Don't worry about me.
I was just about to leave.
Dong Ha. Come and sit.
Who are you people?
Please let me live.
That's enough.
This is the money you asked for.
I did as I was told. Why are you hitting me?
That's for scratching up...
our President's face, you scum.
He's the one who threw the first punch, not me.
Then you should get punched.
How dare you punch him back?
I put in plenty of money for beating you up, so don't feel wronged.
I'm warning you.
If you say anything to anybody,
you can end up dead without anyone knowing.
Keep this to yourself for the rest of your life.
(Yoo Soo Yeon)
Change your phone number...
and live quietly, as if you're dead.
I'll kill you if I see you again.
Let me live.
I made sure he got the message.
Good work.
(Yoo Soo Yeon)
She keeps calling.
It's Ms. Yoo.
Destroy it and throw it away.
Yes, ma'am.
The person you have reached is not available. Please...
Honey.
What?
Soo Yeon said...
the surgery was canceled because the doctor was double booked.
But that's not true, is it?
What do you mean?
I'm wondering if my condition is so bad that they can't even operate.
If that's the case, I want to go home instead of staying here like this.
There's a lot to take care of at home.
Soo Yeon is right.
They said we could reschedule the surgery soon.
You don't need to worry.
I'm not afraid of dying at all.
But...
I want to see my second grandchild's face before I go.
I wish I could at least see Seo Jun start school.
There's really so much I want.
Goodness. It's not like that, I say.
Mom, I'm sorry.
Dad, I'm sorry.
I'm trusting you, Yu Ra.
Win over Jin Woo's heart, so he doesn't waver.
Why aren't you saying anything?
After seeing him at the office,
I lost some confidence.
Soo Yeon has a strong weapon.
A weapon?
I hear she's pregnant.
What loudmouth is going around...
It's not Jin Woo's child
Really?
If I say it isn't, then it isn't.
Don't mention the pregnancy anywhere.
Mr. Hong doesn't know.
I understand.
As I said, focus on Jin Woo and ignore everything else.
But it keeps weighing on my mind.
People could think that I'm tempting a married man.
It's true that I like Jin Woo,
but I don't want people to think of me as a home-wrecker.
Also, it'll be bad for Jin Woo's image...
if people find out that he got divorced because of me.
I don't want my parents to hear news like this either.
More importantly, if they get back together...
That won't happen. They'll get divorced.
I promise you that.
If I move too slowly,
she might get the surgery at another hospital.
That room should be mine.
Wait a little bit longer, Jin Woo.
You're mine.
You think they should postpone the divorce?
Tell him to take some time to themselves while living apart.
Why do they need time?
We need to make sure if it's true or not.
It's all true. Is it not?
We don't have proof.
We saw it with our own eyes.
What's more certain than that?
Soo Yeon insisted it wasn't true.
It feels wrong to make a decision...
based on only what he said.
So, you trust Soo Yeon?
I trust her more than that man I don't even know.
Do as I say this time.
If you hadn't let Jin Woo get married,
we wouldn't have become the center of such gossip.
We have to look for the best way.
It's Seo Jun's mom, not just some stranger.
You're Jin Woo's father, not Soo Yeon's.
Do you think it's right for you to push them to get a divorce?
This is all for Jin Woo.
This is for us and for SA Group.
Do you really have to go that far?
(Hankuk University Hospital)
Wait. What's going on?
The patient went into shock.
Please wait here.
What happened?
I'm not sure. They're treating her inside.
Dad, what should we do?
What should we do?
Doctor. Is everything okay?
She's okay for now.
She suddenly went into shock, so we have to keep an eye on her.
- Thank you. - Wait one moment.
I think you should take her to another hospital.
You need to save her, don't you?
You want to expand the New York store this much?
It's New York.
I think we'll be able to attract more customers...
if the store looks more glamorous...
and has more things for customers to do and see.
Do you think we can finish the remodeling before the opening date?
I think it's possible if I use my connections.
Your connections?
Okay, then. Try writing up a plan for the store.
What do you think you're doing?
Do you think you can just burst in here like that?
You must be out of your mind.
I'll divorce Jin Woo.
I'll leave you two to talk.
No. Stay.
We need a witness so she can't change her mind.
So, you're going to get a divorce?
Yes. I will.
I'll do as you wish, Mother.
Please,
save my mom's life.
Please let her get surgery right away.
There's something you need to do before that can happen.
If you do it, I'll see to it so she can have surgery.
You have something to say?
Why aren't you saying anything? You called me here.
Let's get a divorce.
You said you didn't want to before. Why now?
I'm sorry.
Tae Hoon and I...
are just as you imagined.
Say that again.
I...
cheated on you.
You said that wasn't true. You swore on your life.
I was afraid you would get angry...
if I told the truth.
I'm sorry.
I want to tell you the truth and be forgiven.
You said you would forgive me.
If you're okay with it... If you don't want to get a divorce...
(Hong Jin Woo)
Don't walk around so shamelessly.
You're no longer Seo Jun's mom.
Don't even dream about seeing Seo Jun again. And don't contact him.
I'm going to tell him that you're dead.
Better yet, just go ahead and die.
Director, it's me.
That surgery I asked you to put on hold before,
please proceed with it right away.
Are you happy?
Don't forget what you agreed to.
If you break a single promise,
I'm going to publicize your confession.
Then everyone will know you as a woman who cheated on her husband.
The hate will be thrown at your parents, not just at you.
Your mom's health might worsen from the shock.
More than anything, think of Seo Jun.
If Seo Jun finds out...
I promise.
I'll take this secret to my grave.
I promise.
Finally, you get what I'm saying.
Seo Jun...
Please let me see...
Seo Jun...
one last time.
You just said you would keep your promise.
That includes...
not seeing Seo Jun.
I saved your mother's life.
Don't repay me with ingratitude.
I can save someone and also kill someone.
Don't forget that.
(Gold Mask)
Mommy is sorry.
Jin Woo must be really hurt.
Couldn't it be that she loved both of us?
You chose him over Jin Woo and Seo Jun.
I grabbed this first.
Jin A. What are you doing here?
Baby, you're here.
Are you into older women, Dong Ha?
I'm happy to finally have a daughter-in-law who's on our level.
I miss Mommy.
I'll be back no matter what.
