Send out a correction press release,
or else I won't be able to keep my promise either.
I'll have an interview about my married life with a women's magazine.
That sounds fun. Why don't you give it a shot?
(Chairman Cha Hwa Yeong)
Feel free to do the interview.
Go ahead if you want these photos to be plastered everywhere.
Do you still have more to say?
No, Mom.
Why don't you believe me?
Mom, please tell Dad.
You can't believe everything you see on the news.
Mom. I'll call you back, okay? Bye.
Was it your mom on the phone?
Yes.
Sorry. I'm just frustrated. It came out unconsciously.
Tell me why.
My parents must've seen the Korean news.
That Jin Woo and I are having an affair.
Oh, dear.
They must've missed the correction.
It seems so. I keep telling them it's not true,
but they won't believe me.
Rumors about that scandal also spread in Koreatown.
They say they're coming to Korea if I don't return home right away.
That's good.
Tell them to come.
Let's take this chance to meet them and set a date for the wedding.
What do you think?
Are you serious?
Do you not like it?
It's not that.
I'm happy.
Really happy.
I can't right away.
I'll call you back after I ask around.
How are things going? Did you get any offers for an interview?
No, I'm at a loss.
There's a job where you'd have to work in a kitchen.
Would you be up for it?
Of course, I'm in.
Physical labor may look easy, but it actually isn't.
You know that, right?
I'm in no position to be picky.
All right.
I heard it's a great place to work, although it can be tough.
Where is it?
Hello. Young Ji referred me to this job.
What do you think about getting married to Yu Ra?
Your relationship with her even made it to the news.
And she had it hard, being driven as an adulteress.
Are you just going to look the other way?
I got a divorce not too long ago.
That doesn't matter. You're single now. It won't be a problem.
You've learned from this ordeal that love isn't everything.
Yu Ra is talented and has global connections.
Not only that.
Yu Ra's family wealth...
will give SA Group a big boost.
Make a rational decision.
I know what you mean, but I don't intend to get married yet.
You better get rid of the idea that SA Group will naturally be yours.
Don't jump to the conclusion that you're the sole successor.
Jin A's also my child.
She also has the right to become the owner of SA Group.
You know better than anyone else...
that she doesn't know a thing about business.
I jumped into management when your dad stepped down.
I don't intend to pass it on to you simply because you're the eldest son.
Whether it's you or Jin A,
the person who can take responsibility for SA Group will get it.
Make sure you have what it takes to own SA Group first.
Good morning, Mom.
What is it? Why are you glaring at me?
Hey, I want some water.
I'm telling you to take this opportunity.
You're simply being greedy if you say you want SA Group...
without the ability to seize the opportunity in front of you.
I'm sorry, sir.
I only need to look at the security footage from that day.
I can't show it to you because of privacy laws.
I don't need to see it all.
Only the footage with my daughter in it.
I'm sorry.
I can hand over the data to the police...
if you officially ask them to investigate,
but other than that, it's all illegal.
I don't have any choice either.
It's been a while since Jung Tae Hoon resigned.
Do you know where he works now?
We don't.
The number you have dialed is not in service.
Please check the number and try again.
What's this?
It's from the leather craft workshop owner in front of our burger shop.
He told me your shoes looked uncomfortable last time.
So he hopes you wear this more comfortable pair instead.
What about the daily installment loan?
He never forgets to wire it every day.
And he even put up his store for lease.
It seems nothing has been settled yet.
I wonder what happened to their house. Did they get kicked out or something?
About these shoes...
Is he perhaps trying to send me his love?
What?
Love.
What if he's making a pass at me?
I got one too.
His love.
You made a reservation at that French restaurant, right?
- Yes. - Gosh.
It's so hard to please those women.
Last time at that Italian restaurant,
they were acting all posh.
Table manners this, noodles that.
Goodness.
That must be why...
some people are hiring a manner consultant or someone like that.
A manner what?
A manner consultant.
- A manner consultant. - It's hard to keep up...
with the good manners of the rich unless you are born into money.
So there are consultants who coach people on those manners.
How about hiring one too?
Should I?
Why don't I bring those women down a peg or two?
But you'll enjoy today's get-together.
The background check on Yoo Soo Yeon you asked me to do.
She works at that restaurant you're going to today.
Really?
I knew I could count on you!
My gosh, I suddenly have this urge to go.
I should hurry!
- How about I wear these out? - No, these are a bit...
These look fine. Let's try them on.
- Oh, my. Help me. - I'll put them on for you.
- Ms. Yoo. - Yes?
Do you mind serving for a bit?
Me?
They're our VIP guests.
They're asking you to serve them.
Okay, I'll do it.
- It's been a while, no? - Yes, it has.
My gosh.
- Here is your bread. - I should try it out.
Here is your bread.
Thank you.
My goodness.
Don't people tell you that you look like someone?
I'm not sure.
Chairman Cha's daughter-in-law.
Doesn't she look like Chairman Cha's daughter-in-law?
Oh, my. I made a mistake.
Her former daughter-in-law.
Yes, ex-daughter-in-law.
She does look like her, doesn't she?
But there's no way.
We're talking about the SA Group.
Who would let her ex-daughter-in-law work in such a place?
Right, Chairman Cha?
- Then I'll be going. - Okay.
Why is the bread so tough?
What's so funny?
Come on, tell me.
Just act like you normally would.
My gosh. I'm splashing it everywhere.
It's no biggie.
I'll pour it for you, ma'am.
Thank you.
The knife.
I know, the knife.
Oh, my. I'm wrong.
I can't sleep well...
when I owe someone.
Here.
No, it's all right.
Don't refuse it. Just take it.
Only giving and not accepting anything can become a habit, you know.
I was only doing my job. It's okay, really.
Gosh. I'm just thankful to you.
How can I not thank you...
when you saved me from those sly foxes?
Your words of appreciation are enough.
Then join me, Ms. Yoo Soo Yeon.
What do you mean...
You can be my private secretary...
and manner...
What is that called?
Right. Manner consultant.
You can stay by my side...
and teach me manners like you did earlier.
How could I teach you, Chairman Ko?
I appreciate your offer, but I can't accept it.
That's what I expected you to say.
But you never know how things might turn out,
so take this.
(One Heart Association, Chairman Ko Mi Sook)
Letting people step all over you...
doesn't make you nice. It makes you dumb.
You should grab the foot that's stepping all over you,
and stand up on top of it.
How are you going to get your son back, making pocket change like this?
Aren't I right?
Reconsider my offer.
(One Heart Association, Chairman Ko Mi Sook)
I make one little mistake of letting someone into my home,
and look how embarrassing it is.
Why, Mom? Did someone humiliate you?
I went to a One Heart Association meeting, and Yoo was working at the restaurant.
Oh, my goodness.
Yoo is working at a restaurant?
Don't worry, Mom.
I'm going to pay her back for what she did.
Hey, Yoo.
So it's true that you're working here.
Jin A. Did you bring us here on purpose?
Why? We can eat dinner...
and donate to Yoo at the same time.
I heard things are going well for you two.
Jin Woo is a kind person.
- Are you okay? - Yes, I'm okay.
- Here. Put this over your lap. - Thanks.
Are you telling me to eat this?
Is there a problem, Miss?
Can't you see?
It just looks like it tastes bad.
Do you call this food?
Are you out of your mind?
I'll bring you a new dish.
I don't want it, so take it.
My time is worth a lot, you know.
Apologize.
What are you saying?
Ms. Hong... No, Jin A.
I don't deserve this kind of treatment from you.
So apologize.
Seriously.
How are they training their employees here?
Do you think it makes sense for me to apologize to you...
when you're the one who brought me this poorly cooked food?
Jin A. Just leave it.
Where's the manager?
I want to speak to the manager right now!
You're fired as of today.
(One Heart Association, Chairman Ko Mi Sook)
I'm assuming...
you didn't come here for a house tour at this hour, looking like that.
I want to join you, Chairman Ko.
I guess you're tired of getting stepped on now.
I don't want to live like this anymore,
for Seo Jun's sake.
A manner consultant?
That's right. My private secretary...
and manner consultant.
It was so hard to hire her, you know. She rejected me so many times.
What do you need manners for?
Just live comfortably being yourself.
I will live comfortably,
but I still need to take those women down a peg.
They're always looking down on me, you know.
- Right? - Yes.
- You hired someone reliable, right? - Yes.
I do have one little concern...
Uncle.
Well, she's so pretty, you see.
I'm worried that I might fall for her.
- I'm heading to bed first. - Okay.
- Goodnight. - Sleep well.
- Seriously. - Hey.
Don't say anything to Dong Ha.
Why shouldn't I?
He'll definitely tell me to fire her...
if he finds out that she's SA Group's ex-daughter-in-law.
Make sure they don't run into each other.
Okay.
Please lose some weight, Mi Sook!
Thirty-six, twenty-four, thirty-six.
So you got a job?
Yes. It's a full-time position, not a part-time job.
That's great news.
This means you no longer have to do physically exhausting work, right?
Gosh, Auntie. She's a secretary.
You don't have to worry about a thing.
All I need to do is to catch that guy.
Wait just a little bit.
Did you go looking for Tae Hoon again today?
He quit his job,
and there's nobody he's in touch with, so I have no leads.
Dad. My friend figured out Tae Hoon's home address.
Mr. Jung Tae Hoon.
Please come out if you're inside.
Mr. Jung Tae Hoon.
I haven't seen him around lately.
I can't tell if he's home or not.
The landlord even came by...
but wasn't able to meet him.
He hasn't been paying rent, so he's about to be evicted.
But nobody has been able to reach him.
Welcome, sir.
Right this way.
It'll be over soon. Just wait a little.
Okay.
Why? Is there something you need?
No.
Isn't the man who just went inside...
a national assemblyman?
He is.
There's one thing you need to keep in mind while you work here.
You have to pretend...
you didn't hear...
or see anything...
regarding our clients.
What exactly does Chairman Ko do?
Fourth-tier financial service, more commonly referred to as...
moneylending.
But we're not like scary loansharks...
you see in dramas.
We don't threaten to take people's eyes, livers, hearts, or kidneys...
or make people sign away their body parts to sell them on the black market.
We don't do anything like that.
We mostly lend to medium or large businesses,
rather than individuals.
We have a lot of funds...
invested in SA Group.
That means...
Chairman Ko Mi Sook's investments...
have a small but important impact on the growth of our economy.
In short, she's a big player in our economy.
This is lunch?
Yes.
She had three meals at the same time every day,
and she ate small portions.
They're all vegetables.
Do you think we can work after eating this stuff?
It's not your taste, Chairman Ko.
I only used organic ingredients...
that came straight from a farm.
She eats anything well when she's out of the house.
She's very pretentious at home, I see.
What about breakfast?
She had an espresso as soon as she woke up.
She said it cleared her head.
Is that right?
I'll do that too, then.
What time does she wake up?
She woke up at four every morning.
Four? Every morning?
She must not need a lot of sleep.
- It's a symptom of menopause. - Goodness.
I'm going to follow Chairman Cha's schedule starting tomorrow,
so tell me what to do.
Whatever Chairman Cha does, I do too.
- Yes, ma'am. - I'm so hungry. Let's eat.
But where's your food?
Get your food quickly and sit.
Chairman Cha considered eating a part of her work,
so she didn't eat with anyone who wasn't working with her.
How inconsiderate and abusive.
Come in.
This is the first time you're asking to meet me.
I'm getting butterflies.
Please take a seat, Yu Ra.
Jin Woo.
Ms. Seo Yu Ra. Will you marry me?
This isn't a very cool proposal, is it?
I thought a lot about how to propose, but I couldn't think of any good ideas.
I thought it would be best to be straight to the point.
I have one condition.
I'm never going to betray you like she did.
So promise me...
that you'll trust and love me...
for the rest of your life.
I'll put it in our prenuptial agreement so there's no confusion.
I'll even include...
that I'll compensate to your satisfaction if I break this promise.
Does that sound okay?
Please put it on for me.
That's great news. Congratulations.
Honey, say something.
I can congratulate them later.
Don't you think it's a bit too soon?
Take a bit more time...
You sound so old-fashioned.
Love and time are separate things.
Some people fall in love at first sight.
What does it matter how long they dated?
It's important that they love each other.
We haven't even met her parents yet.
Yu Ra's parents are coming to Korea soon.
We can invite them over and be introduced then.
We should decide on a wedding date and get it done too. How does that sound?
Marriage is a major life event.
It's better to take our time to plan the wedding.
Think of how Yu Ra's parents must feel, living apart from their daughter.
She got pulled into a scandal because of Jin Woo. They must be worried.
If they have a wedding, people will stop gossiping about them.
It'll be nice if Yu Ra's parents no longer have to worry.
What do you guys think?
It doesn't matter to me.
My parents just want me to be happy.
I want to get married soon if Jin Woo is okay with it.
It's settled, then.
Let your parents know and ask them to come to Korea soon.
I will.
Thank you for your approval,
Mother and Father.
Use this.
I'm okay.
Take it.
I don't want to trouble someone I just met.
I do know you, Ms. Yoo Soo Yeon.
Is that enough?
My mind has been all over the place lately. I apologize.
What was your name again?
Let's just say that it's better if you don't know.
- Well, then. - Wait.
Gosh. Something's gone bad.
How annoying.
Gosh. Should I throw it away or not?
Hello, sir.
You're coming every day.
Why are you wasting your energy? He hasn't been around at all.
You never know.
What is this smell?
This package arrived a while ago, but nobody claimed it.
I didn't even know it was in the corner over there.
I thought I smelled something rotten, so I looked around,
and it was this.
(Recipient Jung Tae Hoon, Sender Lee Ok Ja)
Who are you?
Are you perhaps Ms. Lee Ok Ja?
Why do you ask?
Jung Tae Hoon is your son, right?
I came here to ask you something.
I don't know much.
You came to the wrong place.
Gosh.
What? They're getting married?
Okay. Let's talk again later.
How do I look?
You look much better.
Did you hear about your ex-husband?
I heard he was getting married.
You had no idea.
Then did you also not know that he's getting married to Seo Yu Ra?
You really didn't know.
Didn't you say you left your son at that house?
He'll get kicked to the curb soon if he gets a new mom.
How unfortunate.
I have another meeting in 20 minutes.
What did you want to say?
I heard something strange.
Someone told me...
that Jin Woo's going to marry you.
I should've contacted you first,
but I honestly didn't know how to tell you.
So it's true? You're getting married?
Yes.
Jin Woo and I are getting married.
I want to hear an explanation.
I don't understand.
And I don't understand you, Soo Yeon.
Do I need your understanding to marry Jin Woo?
A single man and a single woman fell in love and decided to get married.
It's nothing out of the ordinary.
What part don't you understand?
Was that enough of an explanation for you?
Can you congratulate us on our marriage?
(Gold Mask)
I'm Seo Jun's mom now, not you.
What if Seo Jun forgets me?
- Mommy. - It's okay.
No. I don't like you.
Wait.
What are you doing?
I'm trying to remember how we know each other.
I think we'll have to postpone the wedding.
What do you mean?
What do you think about taking care of this on your own?
