(Episode 9)
Ms. Lee.
- Wash him and get him to bed. - Yes, Ms. Cha.
Let's go, Young Master.
Grandma, please forgive Mommy.
Please let Mommy come home.
Seo Jun, this is an affair among adults.
It's none of your business, so...
Seo Jun, all you have to focus on is studying.
You might catch a cold.
Go wash up and sleep, okay?
Seo Jun, listen to her.
It's no good if you catch a cold.
Why don't we go upstairs?
Let's go.
You're fast, Mom.
Did you call dibs on Yu Ra as your next daughter-in-law?
Talk with dignity.
(Double life of SA Group's Cinderella)
(So it's true President Hong is weak in bed.)
(A commoner kicked her rich mother-in-law in the butt.)
"Because it was an affair, she'll get kicked out without a penny..."
"from that rich family. What a pity."
You're right.
Ms. Cha is a spiteful woman who would actually go that far.
"Her in-laws must've really put her to work..."
"for her to have to cheat on her husband."
"Doesn't she have a kid? That lady's a wacko."
Guys.
If you guys spread false rumors like this,
you'll get sued.
Look at this one.
She cheated, period.
I saw it at the launching show.
(She cheated, period. I saw it at the launching show.)
What a liar.
You didn't see anything.
I'm her sister.
She would never do such a thing.
If you are her sister,
I would be her mom.
You're asking for a fight, aren't you?
(This webpage cannot be found.)
What?
What's going on?
(This webpage cannot be found.)
What happened? What's going on?
Ms. Cha made them take down the article.
But I was having so much fun.
Mr. Ko! Dae Chul! Hey, Brother!
- What is it? - The article was taken down again.
Write another one.
Hurry.
Do it.
Soo Yeon's not the type to cheat.
I can't believe it.
She fooled us all.
She has an innocent face but a wicked heart.
A scary person she is.
Even I feel so betrayed. Imagine how Jin Woo would feel.
Listening to him yell at her to get out...
tore my heart into pieces.
I tried hard to hold back my tears.
It's strange.
What is?
For someone who held back her tears, you almost look excited.
What does that mean?
Are you saying I pushed her into having an affair?
You'll ruin your health.
I don't believe it.
Could she have really done it?
You saw it with your own eyes and heard it with your ears.
Everyone in Korea saw it including you, me, and your father.
Is it that hard to believe?
How could she...
How could she do this to me?
I loved her with all my heart.
Women know each other best.
Soo Yeon doesn't love you.
She toyed with you. Can't you tell?
You shouldn't let someone like her upset you.
Drink all you want today and erase her from your memories.
Can you even do that, Mom?
Can you erase it just because you want to?
The image of her having fun in bed with that jerk won't leave my head.
Consider it a nightmare. It'll be over once you wake up.
Or think of it as having watched a cheap movie.
Yes, that might be better.
How can you make it sound so easy?
Seo Jun fell asleep.
I see.
Jin Woo,
just know this is all for your own good.
And here I was wondering whose work of art this was.
You've taught me a lesson, Ms. Cha.
Soo Yeon!
Stop, Soo Yeon!
Did you have a dream?
What kind of dream was it to call out Soo Yeon?
No matter how many times I called out for her,
she kept walking toward the cliff.
It felt so real.
Mother.
If you really care for Seo Jun,
stop being unseemly and go to your parents' house.
I'll also send over the divorce papers, so sign them.
Ms. Lee, get her shoes.
- We can't send her off looking shabby. - Yes, Ms. Cha.
It's all my fault, Mother.
Please forgive me just this once.
You're really tenacious, aren't you?
How can you ask for forgiveness? That's outrageous.
Stained clothes will always have a stain no matter how much you wash them.
Nothing happened. I swear.
Please believe me.
Even if I do, what's the use?
The one who kicked you out is Jin Woo, not me.
Get out of here if you don't want Seo Jun to find out what you've done.
I...
I'm pregnant.
How foolish.
Whom are you trying to trick?
You can never get pregnant.
Do you even know what kind of oriental medicine I gave you?
Jin Woo knows too.
We went to see the doctor together.
What's going on over there?
There are reporters.
Get her in the car.
Tell me the truth.
Did you take the oriental medicine I told you to?
Answer me.
No.
And why not? Didn't I tell you to?
It didn't suit my taste.
Even if it didn't, you should've forced yourself!
I was trying to prevent things like this from happening.
What do you mean?
That medicine prevents you from getting pregnant.
You'll get caught lying anyway, so tell me the truth.
Did you really not drink it?
You told me it was herbal medicine.
Wasn't it?
Sit down.
Is it true she's pregnant?
Yes.
I see.
You're really nasty.
So you tried to make Jin Woo...
the father of the baby you got pregnant from fooling around, didn't you?
You tried to make that filthy baby a member of our family.
How dare you?
No, Mother. Jin Woo is the father.
The baby is Jin Woo's.
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.
Is it really my baby?
It's your child.
It's our child.
Honey.
Why are you crying? If you have proof, just show us.
Jin Woo is not foolish enough to fall for your tears.
Isn't that right, Jin Woo?
Do you have proof that it's my child?
Honey.
Since you're here, sign the divorce papers.
(Application for Dissolution of Marriage)
I don't want to see you again.
(Application for Dissolution of Marriage)
I can't.
I absolutely can't.
You're the one at fault here.
Don't you know you have no ground to stand on? Sign them.
Right now.
(Application for Dissolution of Marriage)
I'm sorry.
What do you think you're doing?
Is this what you want?
Do you want a divorce?
Is it really my child? Are you certain?
Honey.
Since we got married, I've only loved you and nobody else.
You're the only one.
Think logically.
I got Mother's approval each time I left the house.
And I only went out maybe five times during the whole year.
How could I possibly see another man?
It's not true, honey.
Please believe me. Please?
Mother's not home during the day. You could've gone out without her knowing.
You recently took Seo Jun to your parents' house without permission.
Am I wrong?
That was the only time.
That was the only time I went out without Mother's permission.
Maybe you only got caught that one time.
We can't be sure about the other times.
Let's not be like this.
We shouldn't be like this, at least for Seo Jun's sake.
It's your child.
Even if it is my child,
it doesn't change the fact that you fooled around with another man.
That's a fact.
What can I do to get you to believe me?
I'll do whatever you ask.
Get a DNA test.
I will.
It's definitely your child,
so I will.
You did see that guy, didn't you?
Be honest. When did it start?
I'll forgive you.
Do you think you can forgive me if I admit that I did?
Are you...
confident that you can be okay with it?
I don't think so.
Both of us won't be okay.
That horrible thought will haunt you every day.
I don't want to make you suffer like that.
That's not fair to me either.
You're worrying about me?
How could you do something like that if you're so worried about me?
The things the guy said in front of me keeps on ringing in my ears.
I should've been nicer to you?
When was I ever not nice to you?
Look.
You're already suffering.
Was it nice? Was it? How much?
Is Seo Jun even my child?
I'm not done.
I've never done anything to feel ashamed as a mom to Seo Jun and this baby.
I'm going to meet Tae Hoon and ask him...
why he said such ridiculous things.
I'm sure there's a reason.
What reason?
I'm not sure.
It could be a trap to tear us apart.
Who would do such a thing?
Are you saying that Mother did this?
I'm not sure.
That's why I'm going to meet Tae Hoon and ask him.
I can't sign the divorce papers until then.
The herbal medicine that Mother gave me to take every month...
was medicine to prevent pregnancy.
Yes.
I saw the article.
Everyone at the show saw the pictures. It'll be hard to treat it as just a rumor.
Yes.
She doesn't own any shares, so their divorce won't affect anything.
They're low on funds, so I'm sure they'll come to us soon.
Yes. I'll make them take the bait. Don't worry.
Yes.
Dong Ha.
I'm tired of telling you not to come here uninvited.
Can you at least knock?
But this is a big deal.
Look.
(Hello. This is the Arus Modeling Agency. We would like to work with you...)
Look. A modeling agency contacted me.
They say they want to work with me and to meet right away.
That's great.
Things must be pretty stressful at your house.
What? My house?
Right. Soo Yeon's affair?
You sound like it has nothing to do with you.
I never treated Soo Yeon as part of my family.
She's not on the same level as us.
Anyway, enough about that. Dong Ha.
I'm going to be a top model in no time.
What do you think? Aren't I perfectly your type now?
A smart woman with a career.
I must've forgotten one thing.
What is it?
A woman who knows how the world works.
Not a princess that thinks...
she can be a top model after one agency reaches out to her.
I have a meeting.
Dong Ha.
You wait and see. I'm going to become a top model!
- Gosh. - Thanks for your hard work, Mi Sook.
Why are you doing this?
Pay me back right now!
Why are you doing this? What's the reason?
- What? Why aren't you paying me back? - Tell me.
I've never borrowed money from you.
I don't know what you're talking about. Why are you doing this?
I'm going to call the police.
Old man!
You borrowed money from us using your store's contract as collateral.
Do you think you can act like you're clueless and steal our money?
Of course not!
That money is like blood to us.
If you don't have the money, pay with your life.
This is illegal, what you're doing now.
"Illegal?"
Hey, burn some incense. It must be this old man's funeral today.
- What? - Darn it. I should just...
It hurts. Please let go.
Be gentle. He says it hurts.
We're all adults here.
You should use your words, not your fists.
Isn't that right, Mr. Yoo?
Lady, are you this old man's wife?
Look at this rude little punk, speaking to me like that.
Hey! I'm not his wife. What's it to you?
If you're not, shut your mouth.
If you want to live, leave quietly, you boomer.
He only got me by surprise.
If you don't want to get beat up, get lost.
Dae Chul, you should teach them a lesson.
They're very rude.
I'll be gentle.
They will only need two weeks to heal.
Do whatever you want.
What? Two weeks?
You little...
So, this good-for-nothing friend of his...
stole the store's contract.
It seems you all are victims.
Am I right?
If you sign a contract in someone else's name without their consent,
you can be charged for falsifying a document.
In fact, Mr. Yoo here can...
press charges against his friend and these two punks here.
You've heard of me, right?
I'm Yeongdeungpo White Bear.
What? You're the legendary...
Gosh. We apologize we didn't recognize you.
Goodness. It's fine. Raise your heads.
I like the strong will you have to get your money back.
Nowadays, causing a ruckus like this doesn't get you anywhere but jail.
Times have changed.
Hey. The moneylending business...
is getting a bad rap because of hoodlums like you.
It's making me look bad in the financial community.
How much is it?
Twenty thousand dollars.
Do you think I'm stupid?
I'm Yeongdeungpo White Bear. What's the principal without the interest?
Three thousand dollars.
You should've said that before.
- Here. The principal. - Thank you.
You got your money. So don't come back here again.
If I hear that you've been back here, then you'll...
Die.
Go.
- Yes, ma'am. - Thank you.
Let's go. Hurry.
Goodness.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
A friend can lead you to good places, but they can also lead you to a son.
A son?
You don't know? A son that nobody wants.
As in pri-son.
It's nothing. Choose your friends wisely.
That's all I'm trying to say.
I see.
By when should I pay you back?
I can't right away because I have something going on right now,
but I'll...
No. I'll pay you back little by little.
Don't worry about it. I'll just say I lost some pocket change.
Just take care of your store.
Mr. Ko. Lead the way.
Yes.
You can't just leave.
I don't like free money.
I'll make sure to pay you back.
At least take a promissory note or an IOU.
If you insist. Mr. Ko. Give him my card.
Yes.
Wait. You need to tell me your bank account.
(Shinan Bank)
It's hard to forget the old times,
no matter how hard I try.
What are you looking at?
Does it remind you of your husband?
(Seoul District Court)
We're from the courthouse.
Provisional seizure of moveable assets?
What is this?
You should've received the notice of seizure already.
Mr. Yoo Dae Sung's receivables, bank balances, moveable assets,
and real estate will all be seized.
Wait. Are you sure you got the right house?
Are you sure you didn't come to the wrong place?
Tae Hoon, it's me.
Call me when you get this message.
I have something I need to ask you.
Please call me.
Oh, right. Did you see that on the internet yesterday?
SA Group's daughter-in-law. She had an affair.
I saw that too. She must be crazy.
Why would she cheat on such a great husband?
Right. Isn't she the girl everyone was calling real-life Cinderella?
That's her. She really doesn't know how lucky she is.
She basically threw away her own good fortune.
You're right.
(My Cousin Young Ji)
Hello?
Young Ji.
Oh, Soo Yeon.
What happened?
I don't know what's going on either.
They suddenly came in here, put these stickers on, and left.
What about Dad?
He's not picking up no matter how many times I call.
I can't tell your mom. She's in the hospital.
That's why I called you.
But why didn't you answer? I called you all day yesterday.
Young Ji. What are you saying?
Is Mom in the hospital?
Did I say that?
- Mom. - Hey...
Hey. How did you know I was here?
I'm sorry, Mom.
I didn't even know you were sick. I'm sorry.
No, it's fine.
Don't cry.
I'm well taken care of thanks to Jin Woo.
What are you sorry for?
- Jin Woo took care of you? - Yes.
He said you needed to be careful with your health since you were pregnant.
So we kept it a secret from you.
I'm so grateful for Jin Woo.
I was really trying hard not to call. How did you find out?
It was Young Ji, right?
Gosh. She has such a big mouth.
It's not her fault. I kept questioning her.
Right. This hat is for Seo Jun.
What do you think? Do you like it?
Why are you making this while you're sick? You should rest.
It's boring to lie here all day
I'm doing it to pass the time.
You must be so surprised.
How are you doing? Are you sick at all?
What about morning sickness?
I'm okay.
Your mother-in-law must be so happy...
knowing that you're pregnant.
Is she taking good care of you?
Yes.
That's a relief.
I kept having bad dreams, so I've been worried.
I feel so much better now that I can see you like this.
But...
why do you look so pale?
I look really tired, right?
It's because I'm pregnant.
Right. Mom, you're having surgery soon, right?
Yes. Two days from now.
The surgery will go well, Mom.
Of course.
It's going to be fine. Don't worry about me.
Just worry about yourself.
You've had miscarriages before.
You have to be really careful, okay?
Why are you crying?
I don't know. It must be because I'm pregnant.
Maybe my hormones aren't normal.
Don't cry.
Soo Yeon.
My surgery will be fine. Don't worry.
(Operating Room)
(Mother-in-Law)
It must be your mother-in-law.
You should hurry up and answer.
Yes.
Yes, Mother.
Yes, I understand.
Dad, I have to go meet Mother. I'll be right back.
Hello?
Doctor. We're being told to stop the surgery immediately.
(Application for Dissolution of Marriage)
It's not good for any of us to drag this on.
Let's quietly end this.
There will be no alimony.
There will, of course, be no division of assets.
But I'll give you some money for consolation,
so sign the papers.
I can't.
Do you want to know how much the consolation payment will be?
Will you sign then?
No.
I won't even if you give me all the money in the world.
Money is not important to me.
What's important to me is Seo Jun and Jin Woo.
I can't get divorced like this...
for Seo Jun's sake.
I can't have him think of me as a shameful mother.
Somehow, I'll prove that...
Do you think I'll stand by...
while you ruin SA Group's public image with this mess...
just so you can protect your honor?
(Dad)
I'll be going, then.
Pick up the phone before you say no.
It could be urgent.
Yes, Dad.
What do you mean...
She was already given anesthesia,
but they suddenly said they had to stop the surgery...
and brought her out of the operating room.
They won't even give me a clear reason.
Hang up and sit down.
Dad, I'll call you back later.
Now, we can really talk.
If you want to save your mom,
(Application for Dissolution of Marriage)
sign it.
Divorce my son.
(Gold Mask)
Please help my mom get surgery.
Bring that guy to me first.
I can save someone and also kill someone.
Isn't this your family's heirloom, Chairman Cha?
I keep feeling bad about it.
I heard you were pregnant.
I want to see my second grandchild's face before I go.
Do you really have to go this far?
This is for us and the SA Group.
