(Episode 6)
(Hong Jin A)
The person you have reached is not available. Please...
It's great that you are so happy and bright...
because you were born with a silver spoon in your mouth.
But I'm not attracted to someone who thoughtlessly wastes away her life.
Did you understand?
Wait and see.
I'll make you fall head over heels for me.
It's so funny I just can't.
Come on, tell us what it is.
Why can't you remember?
- He can never recall it. - Seriously.
Soo Yeon, are you okay?
What's wrong with her? She didn't have any drinks.
Soo Yeon, wake up!
Are you okay?
(Calls)
(My one and only)
You're home late.
I'm sorry, Mother.
I was generous enough to let you go, but you're crossing the line.
Were you out until now?
No, well...
Then what?
I stopped by my parents' house,
but I dozed off.
Really?
Are your parents well?
Yes.
Call ahead of time if this happens again.
Don't make me worry.
Yes, Mother.
You can head upstairs.
(My One and Only)
(Soo Yeon)
The person you have reached is not available. Please...
What on earth?
(Calls)
(Soo Yeon)
Are you up already?
What happened?
Do you know how worried I was?
You never spent the night out without telling me first.
I called so many times.
I'm sorry.
My friend's family passed away.
I had to go to the funeral house and lost track of things.
Which friend?
Just someone from high school.
You wouldn't know him.
I was chatting away with my friends and even forgot to check my phone.
You were going to pick me up, but I couldn't reach you.
So I was worried if you got into an accident or something.
I should've called you on my way back, but I didn't want to wake you.
Sorry.
It's okay. At least nothing happened.
That reminds me, how did you get home?
I couldn't reach you last night. Did you take a cab?
Yes.
Good morning, Ms. Cha.
- Good morning. Come sit. - Okay.
Let's eat.
How was your night out together?
Judging by how late you returned, it must've been fun.
After you went out last night,
Yu Ra took great care of Seo Jun.
So in return, we went to see the night view.
I had to leave first. My friend's family had passed away.
I'm sorry I left you behind.
Don't worry about it. It was an unforgettable night,
thanks to you.
I loved it there, so I stayed for more drinks before I came home.
I'm glad you had a good time.
You left so late at night from your parents' place.
Didn't they say anything?
No.
Everyone was asleep.
Did you visit your parents yesterday?
Just for a while after the reunion.
Honey, where do you think you're going in that state?
I'm only going grocery shopping.
For what? I'll do it.
I won't be home for a while once I'm hospitalized,
so I should make a few side dishes to ease...
Not having side dishes won't starve me to death!
I can buy them.
You didn't have to shout.
Besides, you only eat homemade food. Why would you buy them?
I'm fine.
Yes, you are.
But take care of yourself first, okay?
Hey, Young Mi.
Last night is all a blur.
How did I get home?
Hey, you were getting tipsy after drinking juice.
Didn't you get any sleep the day before?
Gosh, you couldn't keep yourself awake.
Well, I do remember feeling drowsy.
By the way, if it weren't for Tae Hoon, you would've been in trouble.
You almost slipped when you got up to go home.
- I did? - Yes.
He helped you right away.
If not, you would've been badly hurt.
He called for a driver and dropped you off at home in his car.
He's such a nice guy.
Do you know his number?
(Jung Tae Hoon)
The person you have reached is not available.
Thank you.
The view from here is great.
I was thrilled the whole time coming here.
It felt like a date in the office.
What happened last night was a mistake.
It wasn't for me.
Yu Ra.
Don't worry.
I'm not young enough to make you take responsibility for a one-night stand.
I'm sorry. I had too many drinks.
But that doesn't mean my feelings are light.
I simply don't want to make your life difficult.
Because I meant it.
I'll head inside first.
What brings you here?
I heard you stepped outside with Yu Ra.
We needed to talk.
Were you two together until dawn?
I already told you at breakfast.
My friend's family passed away.
I know you're lying.
I'm not blaming you.
It can happen when a young man and woman spend time in a nice place...
and get along well.
It was a mistake.
I was not in my right mind because I'd had too much to drink.
You know they say alcohol brings out your true feelings.
You wanted it too.
Yu Ra is the perfect woman, even in my eyes.
Why wouldn't she be in yours?
No. I simply made a drunken mistake.
That's all.
Think it through.
Have you ever made a mistake like that before?
You must have done so because you also had feelings for her.
I could accept Yu Ra as my daughter-in-law...
Stop. Please stop it.
Soo Yeon is your daughter-in-law. Yoo Soo Yeon.
This was my mistake.
I feel so sorry to Soo Yeon. I could never leave her.
I have a meeting.
I'm not interrupting, am I?
I thought you should take it on schedule.
Is there something you want to have for dinner?
Tell me whatever you'd like.
I'm not sure.
This panic disorder. It's even taking away my appetite.
I lost the joy of eating.
You should try walking around the garden for exercise.
I heard that physical fitness is important for an artist...
because painting is like fighting against yourself.
I think I'm losing that fight lately.
I'm afraid to grab my paintbrush.
I...
feel calm when I see your paintings.
I hope you can feel the same way as you paint them.
Ms. Yoo. Ms. Cha is on the phone.
I see.
Yes, Mother.
To the office?
It's your first time coming to the office since you got married, right?
Yes.
How does it feel to come here?
Does it remind you of when you used to work here?
Don't you want to work again?
I feel that I'm in some way working for the company...
by being at home...
and helping Jin Woo focus on his work.
I'm not asking to hear the typical opinion of a housewife.
It seemed like you were analyzing new trends each season.
I wanted to know if you were still interested in design.
I want to try working again...
when Seo Jun is more grown up.
Are you unwell?
It's taking a while to recover from the peanut allergy attack.
The doctor told me not to overwork myself for a while.
You know the launching show is coming up soon.
It's an important event that we're inviting our VIPs to.
Yes. I'm aware of the event.
So I was thinking...
I thought I'd give you one last chance.
Jin Woo told me...
that it's about time I accept you as my daughter-in-law.
You and I had a lot of ups and downs,
but I agreed with Jin Woo.
If you're able to show your talents and abilities...
as SA Group's future lady of the house...
at this public event,
it would be good publicity,
and I would be able to accept you as my daughter-in-law.
What do you think?
Do you want to give it a shot?
Yes. I will.
I want to do a good job and win your approval.
Okay. Try your best. I'll look forward to it.
You were with Soo Yeon.
Should I come back later?
No. Come sit.
Yu Ra. You're in charge of the launching show, right?
Pass it over to Soo Yeon.
What? To Soo Yeon?
She wants to try. I'm going to trust her and give her a shot.
You can focus on...
the US select shop project with Jin Woo.
Yes. I understand.
Oh, that. I gave it to her.
I owe her my life.
I thought it would be good to give her something I was wearing...
as a token of gratitude for saving my life.
It seems like Ms. Cha is no longer angry...
seeing how she put you in charge of such an important event.
Do you want the materials related to the show now?
I was meaning to go by the office to see Jin Woo anyway.
That sounds good. You go ahead.
I'll take care of a few things here and be right over.
- I'll see you later. - Okay.
What on earth is she thinking?
Has she changed her mind that quickly?
You said you'd do it?
Yes.
You can't. Didn't you hear the doctor telling you to be careful?
Tell her you can't do it.
If you can't, then I will.
This is the first project she's put me in charge of.
She said this is my last chance to be accepted as her daughter-in-law.
I want to do it. I want Mother's approval.
I'll be careful.
I'll make sure the thing you're worried about doesn't happen.
But you have to quit right away if you feel even slightly ill.
I promise.
Oh, right. Why did you go to your parents' house?
Oh, that.
Honey. You trust me, right?
What do you mean?
Is something going on with your parents?
No. Answer me first.
Don't you know me? I trust you.
I trust whatever you say.
I'd trust you even if you tell me that water is alcohol.
Actually, that day...
Yes?
I came to give you the materials related to the show.
There's quite a lot
(Analysis of the Smart Shoe's Technical Environment)
My mind went blank because I didn't know anything.
I could get my thoughts in order, thanks to your help.
Much of it has been prepared already by the design team.
It shouldn't be too hard if you follow what's already been set up.
Thank you.
I hope I can do well.
You always do a good job.
You must be very happy, Soo Yeon.
Jin Woo is such a sweet husband.
Couples who have been married for a while...
often say they're staying together for their kids or just out of loyalty.
But the two of you seem different.
I'm still happily married, thanks to Jin Woo.
I'm jealous.
I could be happy with that person too.
That person?
Actually, I met my first love again in Korea.
Really?
So? What happened? Are things going well?
I thought we had feelings for each other.
But it seems that wasn't the case for him.
Still, I can't stop thinking about the day we spent together.
Aren't I foolish?
They say whoever likes the other more loses the upper hand.
But don't give up, Yu Ra.
If you keep going,
I'm sure he'll understand how you feel.
Do you really think so?
Of course. They say sincerity always reaches the heart.
Right, honey?
You're going to head home, right?
I'll see you off. Let's go.
Let's go.
Let's head out.
(President's Office)
Your feelings for me were sincere,
at least for that night.
There.
- Hello. - Welcome.
What brings you here? What about work?
I hear Mom is going to be here for the first time in a while.
For the first time in a while?
She comes often, even though I tell her the staff and I had it covered.
It's not like we're still running the gukbap restaurant.
She should take a break now.
Dae Chul.
You can lose everything in a moment if you forget your roots.
That's right.
My son.
Everyone thinks that I, Ko Mi Sook,
live lavishly after getting rich.
They have no idea that I got here...
by working in front of a hot stove all day selling gukbap.
We became successful. We closed down the gukbap business.
I thought you would have fun spending money like water.
I had no idea you would open up a burger shop...
and make a franchise out of it.
The taste of money.
Haven't I told you a million times that you should never forget...
the taste of money that you worked so hard to earn?
If not, how am I any different from the super-rich of this country?
Do you think they ever worked for their money?
They're just playing around with the money they already have.
But I, Ko Mi Sook, am different, I say.
I know how to make my money work.
Making money do the work.
This is what you have to learn.
Mom, I'm hungry.
I talk too much whenever I come to the restaurant.
I sure am a natural saleswoman.
Well, then.
What would our handsome guest like to eat?
Right. This is the new menu, right?
- Yes. I added a ton of mushrooms, - I see.
and it tastes amazing.
Wait just a moment.
Here.
Thank you.
Isn't it tasty?
Isn't the aroma great?
It's even better than the handmade burgers you had in America, right?
Yes. It's way better than American burgers.
Mom.
You put Yoo in charge of the launching show?
Jin A. How many times must I tell you? Knock before you come in.
I want to do it too.
What?
What Yoo is doing.
Things that cool women who don't waste their lives away do.
It's not something you can do.
Don't be stubborn and go upstairs.
Why? Why can't I do it when Yoo can?
How can you be the same as one of our company's low-ranked employees?
Why would you do something that our employees do?
We receive the applause.
Others do the work for us.
Then I want to officially receive the applause.
Let me be a model for the launching show.
A model?
Forget it.
But why...
Mom. Why? I want to. Please?
Mom, I can do well. Let me. Please?
Let me.
- Hello? - Hey, Soo Yeon.
Sorry to call so late.
You called many times. I was wondering if something was up.
So I called even though it was late.
Why is it so hard to reach you?
Sorry. I've been busy these days.
You said you had a question. What is it?
Actually...
Let's call again tomorrow afternoon.
Okay.
Who is it?
What?
A friend.
You should just call now. Why wait until tomorrow?
I'm too tired to talk for long.
I have to get up early starting tomorrow. I should sleep.
Let's sleep.
That's true. Get some sleep.
You said you have to go to the office to meet the design team.
Let's go together.
They must think I got put in charge of the show because of my connections.
It must annoy them even more if they see me driving in with you.
I don't want to be hated even more.
Why do you care what other people think?
Your health comes first.
I'm too worried to let you go alone.
Let's go together in my car.
I promise I'm fine.
I'll take a deluxe taxi and get there safely.
There's no need.
Follow me out.
It's your car.
Why are you just standing there?
Mother.
This launching show is SA Group's pride and joy.
I'm giving you this so the commute doesn't affect your work.
Yes, Mother. Thank you.
I'll really do my best.
I want to see results, not just hear your words.
Honey.
Enjoy. You deserve all of it.
Mother sounds harsh, but she knows how hard you work.
(Incoming Call, Jung Tae Hoon)
- Hey. Is that you, Tae Hoon? - Yes.
I'm sorry about yesterday.
It was too late to call.
I did call late.
Hey, Soo Yeon. I have to get to a meeting with some buyers.
What should we do?
Well, then. What time can you call?
If not, I'm hoping we can meet up and talk in person.
I think this meeting will be pretty long.
Tomorrow, I'm going on a business trip.
Is it urgent?
Actually, do you want to come to my office for lunch?
I think I can make some time during lunch.
Oh, okay. I'll come.
Okay. See you later.
Hello?
Mr. Choi. It's me.
I think I have to sell the store...
because of some personal issues.
Here's your receipt.
Thank you.
It will be delivered to your home tomorrow.
- Yes. - Yes. Thank you.
Goodbye.
(Jung Tae Hoon)
Hey. I'm here. Where are you?
Here.
You surprised me.
Sorry. I'm just glad to see you.
I see.
Oh, wait. Here.
All good.
Sorry for making you come all the way here.
No. Thanks for making the time.
Let's go in and talk.
You're sure nothing happened, right?
I told you so. How many times are you going to ask?
You were so out of it as if you were drunk.
I thought it would be best to take you to a hotel.
I laid you down in the room and left right away.
Thanks.
I'm relieved now that I've heard your story.
Hey. I'm hurt.
I'm not a bad guy.
I'll buy you a nice dinner sometime.
Sounds good.
I have to get going. I'll see you later.
(Chairman Cha Hwa Yeong)
Come in.
I thought I should give this back to you.
Did you change your mind so soon?
I think it's your mind that's changed, not mine.
You put her in charge of the launching show...
and even gave her a car.
You said she wasn't your daughter-in-law,
but she sure seems like SA Group's daughter-in-law.
I see you're upset that I had you hand over the launching show.
But we can't kick her out for no reason.
I baited her so that I could use it as an excuse,
and she took the bait.
Are you saying you don't care if she ruins the show?
The show represents me. I can't have it ruined.
The show will go on.
I don't know how well she'll do,
but I won't forgive her if she disgraces my reputation.
I'm sorry for the misunderstanding, Ms. Cha.
You don't know yet, do you?
I make the decisions.
(Gold Mask)
What can I do? She's my daughter-in-law's mom.
- It's all thanks to you. - Take care of Soo Yeon's health.
Don't worry and focus on the launching show.
I'll show her how tough this industry is.
- What is this? - Be there. I have something to show you.
Chairman Cha.
She just ignored me, right?
Gosh, seriously?
Whoever you are, I'm going to make you pay!
Jin A. What's wrong?
