Hey.
(Episode 28)
Stop blabbering and bring me a cup of coffee.
Can't you hear me?
Coffee!
You should've gotten me that coffee.
Hey, know your place from now on.
Did you just slap me?
You deserved punishment.
What? Punishment?
What's going on? What happened to your suit?
Dong Ha, Yoo hit me just now.
No way.
I'm serious.
Believe me!
Is what she said true?
Mom.
Explain to me what happened.
Mom, Yoo slapped me in the face.
What? She slapped you?
She threw the lunch I was having at me.
Well, Yoo wasn't getting me my coffee.
She wouldn't have done so without reason.
She wanted me to make her coffee, so I suggested making it herself.
That's not something to hit her for.
It was worth a punishment.
"Worth a punishment?"
You should pay attention to her upbringing, Chairman.
Let's talk in private.
That's not necessary.
It's not something to talk about privately.
We're at work, and Ms. Yoo is not a coffee shop worker.
In the first place, it was wrong...
for Ms. Hong Jin A, an outsider, to come into our office as she fits.
I'm at fault too.
I should've said it easier for her to understand.
Hong Jin A, apologize to Ms. Yoo.
Dong Ha?
Apologize.
Mom!
I don't want to.
She slapped me!
Stop crying.
Mom, fire Yoo.
Hurry, do it now!
You're at work, not at home. It's different.
I hate Yoo being next to Dong Ha.
Mom, fire her. Fire Yoo for me.
Stop throwing a tantrum.
How much longer will you act like a child?
You can't act spoiled outside as you do at home.
And I told you to be careful as the face of SA Group just recently.
Think, will you?
It's because of Yoo. She didn't make me coffee and...
Isn't it because of Kang Dong Ha?
I don't get why you're so obsessed with him.
What an embarrassment. How can I look Dong Ha in the face now?
Hong Jin A.
Pull yourself together.
Walk with confidence when you leave.
My daughter will not lower her head...
or show her weakness to anyone.
I won't accept that.
Then was it right of me not to apologize to her earlier?
Yes, good job.
She's not worth your apology.
Whatever happens next time, do not cry.
Don't even if you're furious, upset, or in pain.
Think of getting revenge instead. Don't cry about it.
That's what my daughter should do.
Understood?
Yes.
What's so good about Kang Dong Ha?
How do I pull her away from him?
Yu Ra must've found the necklace I gave Seo Jun...
and scolded him badly.
Please comfort him, Young Ji.
What's wrong, Young Master?
Young...
We're not in the Joseon Dynasty.
Seo Jun.
You don't know who I am, do you?
No, I don't.
I'll tell you who I am.
I'm your...
Hey, Hong Seo Jun!
You scared me.
Knock before you come in.
Who the heck are you?
"The heck?" Did you just say that to me?
My apologies.
Get lost.
Leave.
Hong Seo Jun.
Don't you dare cry your eyes out because you miss your mom.
Your mom... No, she's not your mom anymore.
That woman is a total witch. Did you know that?
Isn't that harsh?
She gave birth to him, so talking ill of her...
Get out!
Seriously.
Everyone's pushing my buttons.
Have you given the brand some thoughts?
Countless new brands launch every day.
And the concept follows the trend, so it's all very similar.
Ms. Seo is from abroad.
So it won't be easy to win against her by imitating overseas brands.
So? Do you have an alternative suggestion?
Here.
(Moran Footwear)
Isn't this...
Where did you get this?
I found it in the reference room last time.
The reference room?
I want to bring Moran Footwear back to life again.
- This brand? - Yes.
Trends come and go.
If we renew it according to the current trend,
it might stir up nostalgia for the middle-aged...
and the newtro vibes to the younger generations.
What do you think?
Is it a bad idea?
No, it's a great idea. Let's go with this.
Do you have anything urgent right now?
No.
Let's go out then.
What?
Okay.
Pick one out.
Platform shoes are in fashion again,
so a retro style like this would be nice.
Or something like this.
Try it on if you like it.
It's okay. We're researching the market right now.
Are you going to work in that state the whole day?
You're the senior manager of the brand development team.
And the designer to boot.
You can't go around looking like that.
Don't worry about the price. It's on me.
Try it on.
I'll pay you back on my payday.
I don't like owing people.
And I already owe you a lot. You helped me out last time as well.
Even today.
So I feel grateful and bad at the same time.
Do as you like.
Mr. Kang.
What is it?
Can I pay in installments?
Sure.
Why are you laughing?
No, it's my throat that felt ticklish.
Are you happy now?
Let's go.
I can't even thank him...
for sending me such a beautiful plant.
Hello?
I'm calling from the tteokbokki place you sent the potted plant to today.
Would it be possible to get...
the phone number of the sender?
Well, he left his bag at my store.
I see. So you don't know his number.
Okay. Thank you.
Will he come back to get it?
But going out seemed tough on him.
What about Seo Jun?
He looked dispirited, so I was going to comfort him.
But that brat is mind-blowingly rude.
Who? My sister-in-law?
Sister-in-law, my foot.
She spoke ill of you to Seo Jun and threw things at me.
- Did you get hurt? - No.
She must've been more snappy because of me.
We had an incident at the company.
I hope Seo Jun doesn't get hurt.
I know it's upsetting, but don't worry about him too much.
I heard some things inside the house.
And it seems like his stepmom is nice to him.
I see. I'm relieved.
- Welcome back, Mom. - I'm back.
- Come sit here, Auntie. - Okay.
You're home early.
Yes.
I promised to drop by your place but haven't kept it yet.
It's tough, isn't it? I'm sorry.
Not at all.
Your dad ran the leather craft workshop all by himself, so I should too.
Don't apologize. I'm doing fine alone.
By the way, did you find out anything?
No. I posted the surveillance footage on the bulletin board,
but nobody got in touch.
Do you think he's from the company?
No, right?
It won't be easy to find him.
If it's giving you a hard time, you can...
No, forget it.
Since you started it, give it your everything.
And ask for my help if you need any.
You should take care of your health, Mom.
That's your way of helping me.
I'm going to live a long life.
Don't worry about me.
I promised your dad...
that I'd watch Seo Jun, Young Ji, and you live a happy life.
You're going to take Seo Jun to work?
His kindergarten homework is to visit his parents' workplace.
That's what Ms. Lee told me.
Didn't you know?
So that's today.
I was too busy, and it totally slipped my mind.
You won't be that busy from now on, so pay attention.
I will.
But will he be okay?
What do you mean?
It bothers me.
And I mean Ms. Yoo.
Seo Jun will waver when he sees his mom.
Even so, should I let them meet?
No. Don't say a thing to Seo Jun and keep him away from her.
Okay.
What's your intention?
What do you mean?
Why did you only tell Jin Woo about the homework?
Did you want us to have a fight?
No way. I had no bad intention.
I reported it to him first because we bumped into each other.
Seo Jun is my son. Report it to me too.
I will.
Why aren't you addressing me properly?
Tell me who I am.
The daughter-in-law of the family.
Treat me like an outsider,
and you won't be able to stay here for long.
So if you don't want that to happen, do your job well. Got it?
Be careful.
I think you're mistaken.
The person I serve is the chairman.
Is she dying to get fired?
- We're here. - Seo Jun, this is the office I work in.
Why don't you take a seat in that chair?
Let's go, Seo Jun. Take a seat.
Here you go.
Seo Jun, you're going to sit in that chair someday.
So don't cry and be brave, okay?
You're no ordinary child.
- Understood? - Yes.
Have fun touring with Dad. I'll see you at home.
Seo Jun, how about we go to my office next?
Let's go.
Come.
Yes?
Chairman Ko Mi Sook is here.
Good morning, Chairman Cha!
You're here early.
When I heard you had great news for me,
I ran here at full speed.
So what is that news?
We appointed a non-executive director...
And that's me, right?
- Yes. - I knew it!
My gosh, it's such an honor.
I'll support SA Group with all I've got...
and light this place up!
Yes, I will!
Oh, yes, I'll light this place on fire.
And I'll push you into that fiery pit, Cha Hwa Yeong.
If you're here about plagiarizing the design,
I've got nothing more to say.
It's coffee.
And why?
Putting aside work,
I'd like to thank you.
I know you're taking good care of Seo Jun.
I'm sorry. And thank you.
Why are you thanking me?
Seo Jun is my son.
I don't know why you're thanking me for doing something so natural.
Also, take this back with you.
How do I know what you put in there?
Don't you remember the time you put peanut oil in Mother's salad?
It was Mother...
Are you saying Mother staged it?
Who knows? It seems like you're more than capable of doing something like that.
Don't come talk to me about Seo Jun from now on.
I can raise my son on my own, so mind your own business.
Do you understand me?
Yes.
Hurry. Seo Jun is waiting.
Okay.
Let's leave. Jin Woo is waiting for me.
I know you don't like me, but please don't take it out on Seo Jun.
Aren't you going to take the coffee?
I told you I wasn't going to drink it.
I didn't put anything in there.
I'm very distrustful.
Let's go.
Security is very important for the design team.
Nobody else is in the office, so I have to lock the door.
The meeting's going to start soon.
Take Seo Jun and give him a tour of the office.
Okay.
Oh, right. Jin A got the modeling gig.
Tell her to prepare for it well.
Jin A?
Mother pulled some strings. So tell her to do a good job.
She'll be wearing our company's clothes. Please get them ready for her.
Okay.
Listen to your mom, okay?
She's not my mom.
Yes, Dad.
Walk faster. You're getting in my way.
How annoying. He brought him here, so he should take care of him, not me.
Just go sit wherever and stay quiet.
Hello?
There's something wrong with the fabric?
No, it's okay. I'll come to you.
- Hong Seo Jun. - Yes, ma'am.
Something came up for work.
I'll be back in one hour.
You can be alone for one hour, right?
Don't go anywhere, okay?
And don't tell your dad.
You're going to get in trouble if you tell him. You got it?
Yes, ma'am.
(Design Room)
What if he walks around on his own and runs into Soo Yeon?
That can't happen.
(Design Room)
Ms. Seo. I'm scared.
I want to go with you.
I told you I'd be back soon.
Please open the door.
Wait.
Ms. Seo. Please open the door.
Mom.
Is someone in there?
Mom.
Is this the security team?
Please come to the design room right away.
Eat this.
- You can go back now. - Yes, sir.
You were here alone?
Gosh. You must've been so scared.
I'm here now, so everything is fine.
How did you come here?
Can you tell me?
I came with Dad for a tour of the office.
Dad?
Is there a man on the design team?
What's your name, little guy?
- Seo Jun. - Okay. Seo Jun,
where did your dad go?
He went to a meeting.
He told me to stay with her,
but she left me here.
She did?
Where did she go?
Didn't she tell you when she would be back?
She said she would be back in one hour.
Oh, I see.
Okay. How about you stay with me for one hour?
Mom told me...
that I shouldn't follow strangers.
Wouldn't it be okay if we stayed within the building?
We won't go outside. How does that sound?
Since you're here for a tour, I'll show you around.
Let's go.
(Seo Jun is with the Investment Development Team. Kang Dong Ha)
Okay. Let's head out.
There we go.
Here. Let's take a seat here.
Good.
Seo Jun. Let me take a picture of you.
Look over here.
One, two.
How cute.
Come here.
One, two.
This one turned out nicely.
Hong Seo Jun.
Where are you hiding? Come out.
Hong Seo Jun.
Come out now, or you're going to be in trouble.
How did he get out?
Seo Jun.
Hey. Where's Seo Jun?
Honey. What do I do? Seo Jun disappeared.
What are you saying? What do you mean he disappeared?
Weren't you with him?
I was, but I went to the restroom for a minute.
I couldn't take him since he was a boy.
I told him to stay here and not go anywhere.
Seo Jun.
Honey. What do I do? Our Seo Jun...
Seo Jun!
Honey.
Seo Jun is missing? What happened?
It's all my fault. It's all because of me.
What happened? Did you find Seo Jun?
I can't find him anywhere.
Oh, Seo Jun.
Honey. What do we do?
The police. Let's call the police.
What if someone kidnapped him?
Don't make a scene.
It hasn't been very long since he went missing.
So let's wait a little.
Tell the security team to track him with the security camera footage.
I already did. They'll call me soon.
Don't cry.
One of the security team members said...
he saw the young master.
He saw him? Where?
He said Chief Director Kang probably took him.
Seo Jun. Let's go see Daddy.
There.
Seo Jun!
Dad?
Why did you take Seo Jun?
Don't you know how serious kidnapping is?
Don't be so rude.
I saved him because he was locked in the office.
How is that kidnapping?
You took him without asking his parents. That's exactly what kidnapping is.
Didn't you see the note I left in the design room?
I clearly wrote that Seo Jun would be here.
I heard you got a restraining order on Ms. Yoo for being unfit to be a parent.
Isn't it more of a problem to leave a young child alone with no supervision?
Who left him alone?
She left briefly to go to the restroom.
Who goes to the restroom for one hour?
How does that make any sense?
It's not true.
Seo Jun. Why are you lying?
Are you scared I'm going to scold you?
It's okay.
I was so worried.
Seo Jun.
He must be confused from the shock.
Seo Jun. It's me, your mom. Come here.
No. You're not my mom.
Mom.
Seo Jun.
Mom.
What are you doing? Get away from him.
Please stop.
You shouldn't behave this way in front of your son.
Seo Jun.
Seo Jun. You've gotten so big.
You said you'd come. Why didn't you?
You said you'd come to see me.
Mommy's sorry.
Don't cry, Seo Jun. I'm sorry.
Look.
This is why Seo Jun doesn't accept me as his mom.
Look at me.
I'm going to come get you no matter what.
No matter what. I promise.
You have to come, okay?
Seo Jun. Let's go.
Seo Jun.
Can you explain to me...
why Seo Jun was here?
Yu Ra is taking him down.
Please take him home, Mr. Kim.
Okay.
- Where's Seo Jun? - He's on his way home.
Did you hear?
He was locked in the office by himself.
It was for a short moment.
Yu Ra went to the restroom, and that punk Kang Dong Ha took him.
Did you two set this up?
What?
Did he do this so you could see him?
Don't be nonsensical.
She told him to stay there alone for one hour.
You don't believe it?
Kids lie sometimes.
Seo Jun has been lying recently.
Are you saying Seo Jun lied?
Did you even ask him?
What's the point of doing that?
Nothing would've happened if he stayed in the office.
If something happens to Seo Jun,
I won't stand by and watch.
You cheated on me.
I don't want to hear you talk about our son. Get out.
Don't forget about the restraining order.
Don't come near Seo Jun.
Be good to Seo Jun.
Pay attention to what he says.
Hug him and tell him you love him every day.
You're his dad.
Are you trying to teach me how to be a parent?
You don't need to lecture me on what I know.
Don't act like a know-it-all and get out.
He's your son.
I'm sincerely asking you.
(Revealing Yoo Soo Yeon's Secrets)
(Here are some secrets of Yoo Soo Yeon of the Investment Development Team.)
(Would you like to post this message?)
(Here are some secrets of Yoo Soo Yeon of the Investment Development Team.)
Da Young. Did you see the article posted on the company bulletin board?
That's crazy.
Did you see it too?
Soo Yeon must be crazy. How could she...
(Revealing Yoo Soo Yeon's Secrets)
(Adulteress! Nepotism! Sponsored! Resign from your job!)
(Gold Mask)
A sponsor? Where did that rumor come from?
I'm going to ask the administrator to take down the post.
It's okay. Just leave it.
She's hoping I'll leave because I can't stand the scornful looks.
Was that you, Mother?
Oh, my gosh!
Yoo and Dong Ha are in a relationship?
Hand in your resignation letter. If you don't, I'm going to fire you.
Chief Director Kang and I are both single.
That's right. I'm her sponsor.
