(Episode 25)
Please sit down.
What's the matter?
Do you have something against me?
Why?
Of course not.
Ms. Shin Nan Sook.
Don't tell me...
that you've forgotten your own name.
What...
are you talking about?
Are you saying...
that Shin Nan Sook isn't your real name?
Of course not.
I don't get what you're talking about.
Look at this then.
(Student Record)
Name, Shin Nan Sook.
Residence, 78 Naegwan-dong, Seoha, Busan.
A junior at Gyeongjin Girls' High School.
You know what they say.
Some people mistake others' generosity and take advantage of it.
Chairwoman Jin's confidence in you only fuelled your audacity.
That doesn't mean you can pour hot water on my hand!
Ms. Jin told you to stop looking into us.
So...
why are you still poking into my past?
Tell me what the reason is.
Let me show you.
Applying it with a brush...
brings out the colours evenly.
Yes.
What comes to mind when you see that?
I'm not sure. I'm glad to be born as a guy...
because I don't have to put makeup on.
Unbelievable.
That's not the correct answer.
We have succeeded in life.
Look at the beautiful ladies we call our wives?
Just look at your mom.
No one would see her for her real age.
She could be Sabina's older sister.
Father, don't you mean that we look the same age?
The same age? It sounds like you want to be my equal.
Anyway, a new addition to the family...
has brought more laughter into this household.
Thanks, Sabina.
I'm grateful too, Father.
Okay, let me try what you taught me.
Sure. Go ahead.
All right.
My gosh!
Honey, what's wrong?
Honey.
Are you hurt?
- Are you all right, Mother? - Step backward. I'll clean it up.
Honey, are you sure you don't need to go for a check-up?
The same thing happened last time.
Stop making a fuss. My hand just slipped.
It will get worse.
You should get shots and undergo physical therapy every day,
so you will need a caregiver.
Secretary Han. Secretary Han!
Secretary Han has an appointment, so she went out.
Oh, I see.
It will be the first day of September next week.
If someone wishes you happiness on the first day,
it will make you happy the whole month.
I wish you all the best in September.
With you staying by my side...
With you staying by my side, I'm so happy...
- and grateful... - Give me that.
What was that? You were writing to me.
I don't know.
Just go. I have to go to work.
Why do you work?
What did you do with the 1,000 dollars I gave you?
I've almost used it up.
Look at you.
I warned you before.
You shouldn't buy ice cream just because it's hot.
Did you just waste the money because it's not yours?
Do you know much the rent is?
I have to pay the electric bill, the water bill, and food expenses.
On top of that, I have to pay for the kids' school.
The education is free. Why would you pay tuition?
I had to pay 130 dollars for Sa Rang's specialized education...
in the daycare center this month.
Okay. I'll give you 2,000 dollars.
I'll give you the money, so don't work.
You can't tell me whether I can work or not.
I'm perfectly healthy and competent.
- I have to work part-time... - Just don't do it.
Why not?
You don't know why?
You really don't know why I'm doing this?
I don't know.
Why are you being like this?
Because I...
Gosh. Forget about it.
I should get going anyway. That's that.
You came all the way here to tell me that?
Sure.
I'm going undercover to catch drug offenders.
They carry knives, so I might die.
- Are you serious? - Yes.
But...
don't worry.
I'm Cha Pil Seung with 99 percent of arrest rate.
See you later.
I better not get hurt.
My gosh.
Please be careful.
Hello?
Yes. Hello, Chairwoman Jin.
Today?
She will miss me all night.
I should show her my face...
so she can make it through the tiring day.
Gosh, I'm just like an oasis.
Why are you so late?
We have to go crack down on scalpers.
Keep your voice down.
I'm after drug offenders, not scalpers today.
- What? - Let's go.
Who are playing today?
Dragons versus Tigers.
Did you not hear me?
Tell me.
Why are you being so cheeky and prying into my past?
Why do you not want your real name to be revealed?
There must be a reason...
why you've lost your cool just because of your name.
I thought you were smart.
I'm disappointed.
Do you think...
I'm all worked up because of my name, Shin Nan Sook?
Isn't that it?
Of course not.
What's the big deal about it?
I have nothing to hide.
I'm not afraid of you prying into my past.
I'm just upset...
that an impudent loach is prodding around,
forgetting itself where they belong.
And I'm afraid muddy water will splatter on my daughter...
who's like a sweetfish in clear water...
that you can't even dare to look at.
You don't have to worry about it.
I have nothing personal...
against Sabina and you.
On the contrary, I'm actually grateful for Sabina...
since she's the peace keeper in the family.
Then why are you doing this?
Why are you poking around all over?
It's for Chairwoman Jin.
No matter who it is,
I can't let anyone harm Chairwoman Jin.
So...
are you saying...
I'm trying to harm Chairwoman Jin?
We'll see.
You just told me earlier.
You don't have anything to hide about your past.
Let me ask you one thing then.
If your real name is Shin Nan Sook, you are Eun Dong Joo's real mother.
Then who is Sabina?
I checked the patient record. It says Eun Jeong Soo had...
a wife and a daughter.
Where did Sabina come from?
They are of the same age. How would you explain it?
You abandoned your real daughter, Eun Dong Joo in Busan.
And you raised Sabina as if she's your own daughter.
Tell me what happened.
Is that why...
you had a contractual marriage and changed your name in the States?
Answer me.
Shin Nan Sook, what's the truth you're hiding?
Answer my question.
Who told you...
that Eun Dong Joo is my daughter?
You're right about that.
I have only one daughter.
And, of course, it's Sabina.
You're just saying that...
because Eun Dong Joo says so.
Bring her.
I can have...
a DNA test with her immediately.
That's what she heard from Reverend Kim.
You married Eun Jeong Soo...
and had a daughter named Eun Dong Joo.
Like you said, if Eun Dong Joo is not your daughter...
Then...
Sabina's real name is Eun Dong Joo?
Is that it?
Why aren't you saying anything?
You said you have nothing to hide.
Is this the secret you didn't want to reveal?
That Sabina's real name is Eun Dong Joo?
All right.
If it's hard to answer,
I'll figure it out myself.
The past of Sabina and you.
Everything about it.
(Student Record: Shin Nan Sook)
(Daughter)
Mom, I forgot to tell you this.
I heard Secretary Han went to the Golden Garden Festival.
Do you think she saw you there?
The Golden Garden?
What are you doing?
It's Professor Cha's car.
(Han Soo Mi)
That's right.
It's her.
She's the witness to the accident.
If Sabina's real name is Eun Dong Joo...
Eun Dong Joo.
No way.
It can't be.
I'm sure it isn't.
Ms. Jin, it's me.
I have something to tell you.
Yes, I'll be right there.
(Han Soo Mi)
Are you insane?
Getting involved in this case...
will lead to everyone knowing about our relationship.
So?
Are you saying we should leave him?
He could be in critical condition!
It's not like there's much you can do.
Reporting it via payphone is the best course of action.
Mommy!
Mommy...
You said so yourself...
that you don't want people to know we're his parents.
Then...
just do as I say. Get in.
You dare poke around my past?
You who had an affair and a child with a married man?
Han Soo Mi, stop.
You're going to dig up my past?
Actually, it's in your best interest not to do so.
Like I said,
I won't sit on information that can hurt Ms. Jin.
What is the meaning of this?
Follow me.
It says so in the Bible.
"Let the one who has never sinned throw the first stone."
Have you never sinned before?
What?
Don't you have a dirty past you're keeping...
from everyone else?
What on earth are you talking about?
I'm sure you know what I mean.
If you wish to be unscathed,
heed...
my warning.
Understood?
A dirty past?
No way...
Enjoy.
Ms. Jin,
I'm still wondering why you asked me over here.
I had a few questions to ask.
Secretary Han told me...
that you worked as a caregiver.
Yes, I'm a certified nurse's aide.
Are you still working as one?
No, I've been taking a break and looking for other work.
Then I'm glad.
What if I offered you a job?
At I and K?
What could I possibly do?
All new recruits go through training,
so I'll tell Secretary Han to make arrangements.
Would you be interested?
I'm sorry, but could I get back to you on this?
Of course.
Take your time and give me an answer.
Hello, Ms. Han.
Right. It's been a while.
We're done here, so please call me with an answer.
Yes, ma'am.
Why was Ms. Eun here?
I want to keep her by my side.
- Are you... - That's right.
I'm thinking about hiring her as my private caregiver.
Ms. Jin...
She was quick on her feet when I fainted in the elevator.
Also, she's a daughter of a patient in our MS Patients Organization.
If she's up for the job, don't hesitate to hire her.
Anyway,
you said you had something to say. What is it?
Oh, well...
If you wish to be unscathed,
heed...
my warning.
It's nothing.
I'll make arrangements for Ms. Eun like you suggested.
(We invite you to the Fried Chicken of Love Event.)
(Ddobong's Fried Chicken)
In every small heart
We gather beautiful love
Let's make it together
A wonderful world
You said you were going after a drug dealer.
When did you find the time to decorate the place?
I found these at the drug dealer's house.
Gosh.
Anyway, Mid Eum's shining more thanks to them.
I know you only have eyes for me, but please watch Mid Eum sing.
Unbelievable.
Gosh.
Let's warmly embrace each other
Together in this place
Let's applaud!
Just so you know,
how loud you clap shows your beauty and kindness.
All right then.
Now it's time to hear from the CEO...
who made this event happen.
Our owner and captain.
The successful granny with a foul mouth...
I mean, here's the owner of the fried chicken restaurant.
Come on out!
Will you shut it?
Listen up.
Fried chicken is best to enjoy when it's still hot.
Why on earth are you starving these children?
Who agrees with me?
- You're right! - Me!
Gosh, my ears almost fell off.
Whatever. Even though you don't have parents,
your voices are still loud and bold.
I love how brave you all are.
Today, you are invited to an all-you-can-eat buffet,
so stuff yourselves as much as you can.
I want to see those bellies pop.
- Guys, go ahead. - Enjoy.
Here. Try this.
It's so good.
Over here. Lay those puppies over here.
Good.
They say we rest while lying on the ground.
She's getting the royal treatment by sleeping here.
Can you help me with him?
Must you make a big fuss?
How can you catch criminals being this weak?
- Here. - Keep being a fine young man,
my handsome singer.
Hold on.
Why is your butt suddenly the size of a mountain?
What's this?
- It's beer. - You...
This idiot must be craving for some alcohol.
- Of course. - Why is that?
What do you say to fried chicken and beer?
What?
We couldn't drink because of the kids earlier.
- How about a sip? - Get a grip on yourself.
How can you drink every single day?
Not every day.
I take Sundays off since it's Lord's Day.
Indecent is what you are.
And you're more like constipation than a stuck-up nerd.
You're no fun at all.
Dong Joo's waiting, so good night.
Don't be stupid and sleep tonight here as well.
Let those two have some time to themselves for a change.
Wait. Has this been your plan all along?
Yes, of course.
It's a busy world, so why be slow and patient?
Are you tired? You should've just slept at my place.
I have a job to get to early tomorrow morning.
Then get some sleep.
I'll wake you up once we're there.
I'm fine. I'm not sleepy at all.
Just get some sleep!
I said I'm fine!
Fine!
I saw today that Mid Eum is a talented vocalist.
Should we get him some lessons?
That sounds good, but it'll cost a lot.
I told you that I'd pay for the expenses.
Why?
Who knows?
He might be an idol artist and make me run an agency.
I'm happy just to think about it.
I'll name it "Jackpot Agency".
And you know the van celebrities use.
I'll get a white one.
And he will have his own autograph.
Are you asleep?
She said she's not sleepy, but she fell asleep in three seconds.
(Episode 26 will air shortly.)
What's there to life anyway?
It's all pretty much the same
People are trying to sleep, you know.
When will this end today?
Is it your goal to drag everyone down with you?
Yes, I'm the most miserable person on earth.
After a drink or two,
I start remembering all the guys that dumped me.
Young Chul, Sang Min,
Joo Young...
Also, what was his name again?
He had a huge mole on his forehead.
I was quite popular back in the day, you see.
I get it, so please get some sleep.
Meanwhile, you're just the worst.
You're like constipation that one can't get rid of.
Are you kidding me?
Why am I like constipation?
Let me show you.
Go ahead and sing.
Fine.
1, 2...
That's how life is
Many days are full of hardship and pain
But living is good
Good job on making it through the day
Darn.
My gosh, that was so cool.
You're like the chopsticks master.
The superstar of chopsticks.
I never said anything, but I was in a band.
My dad wanted me to study so...
What are you doing?
How was it?
Did that tingle?
It was barely a peck...
Darn.
Are you all right?
Sister.
Sister?
Of course, you're exhausted.
Get some sleep.
My gosh.
I must've fallen asleep.
Detective Cha. Detective...
He must've been tired from the drug bust.
He has really long lashes.
He has a sharp nose too.
Did he put something in it?
I didn't.
Am I that adorable?
You've fallen deeply for me, haven't you?
What did you just say?
Okay, fine. I'll grant your wish.
Here.
What on earth are you doing?
I'm an introvert, so you can approach me instead.
Here you go.
My gosh. You're insane.
Seriously?
Should I do it then?
I'll save that for later.
I value myself too much.
Come on. Let's take a walk.
Hand.
Is this your foot? It's rough and dry.
My gosh.
It's why I didn't want to hold hands.
They're rough from all the work I had to do.
Did you have to work many jobs?
Once you're 18,
you have to leave the orphanage.
I had to earn money myself to keep food on the table.
When other kids went to college,
I worked at a fish cake factory,
a parking lot as an assistant,
and even a parcel delivery company...
because I heard they paid well.
You have no idea how exhausting it was.
That night...
as I came home with 50 dollars in my hand,
I got so jealous of the college students...
that rode the bus with me.
I cried my eyes out.
I wanted to study in college too, you see.
I got in one,
but I couldn't pay the tuition.
Gosh, this is silly of me.
I rarely talk about myself to other people.
It's all right.
I'm not just anyone.
Dong Joo,
I'll make up for all the hardship...
you had to face in your life.
For a long time.
A long time.
You said so yourself...
that you don't want people to know we're his parents.
Then just do as I say.
She had to keep the baby's identity a secret.
That means the father isn't just anybody.
I wonder who it is.
Sabina, nice shot!
Wow, mamma Mia!
I've never said this before,
but do you know what I've been most jealous of?
It's winning the family golf competition.
You have no idea how much...
CEO Jung bragged about his trophy last year.
Let's enter it this fall and show him what we're made of.
Why not?
With Sabina, we make a perfect four-man team.
Okay? Yes!
- Sabina, okay? - Yes!
Yes!
(Mom)
May I be excused?
When are you free today?
We need to talk about Secretary Han.
Don't you have a dirty past you're keeping...
from everyone else?
(Baby Journal)
(1991, Barcelona)
Your mom has already begun her training.
She's still swinging out there.
So have you come up with plans for the fall?
When will you go on your trip?
That reminds me. I should renew my passport first.
My last trip abroad was 30 years go.
I haven't been out since...
just to say on your mom's good side.
My gosh. Is that so?
Then why don't you visit Spain on your way back?
It's one of the hottest destinations right now.
Sabina...
Please don't mention...
even the S in Spain to your mother-in-law.
Don't ask questions. Just promise me that.
Who's texting me this early in the morning?
This is urgent.
Can you please call me?
What...
Will you guys excuse me?
Why can't I mention Spain to your mother?
Did something happen there?
It's where my dad...
had his affair.
Why are you texting me this early in the morning?
It's urgent.
Can we meet?
Are you insane?
I'm risking a lot by just talking to you on the phone.
Someone knows about us.
What do we do?
What do you mean?
Someone knows about us? Who?
It's why I want to meet.
Okay, I'll call you later.
No, it's can't be.
That's impossible.
My gosh!
Joon Ki, what...
What are you doing?
Who were you on the phone with?
Who else would it be?
My friend, CEO Jung.
You know him, right?
"About us"?
That's how you refer to your relationship with him?
Oh, that.
You know, him and I...
Dad!
All this time,
I've been disgusted by you.
However, I tried to...
put that behind me and mend our relationship.
Why can't you see that?
Don't you feel bad for Mom?
Joon Ki, come on.
You've got this all wrong.
I won't say more.
Break Mom's heart again...
and I'll consider you dead.
So wrap up loose ends, all right?
Joon Ki, it's not what you think...
You've got this all wrong!
Why did he have to have a temper just like his mom?
This is her fault for calling me!
Did you sleep well?
Your job is demanding so take care of your health.
The kids miss you a lot.
You shouldn't use the kids like that.
Gosh.
It's you who misses me, not the kids.
As if.
Really?
Then I'll leave.
Okay, fine.
I missed you too.
You're too honest for your own good.
So what brings you by?
I could almost feel you missing me,
so I stopped by on my way to work.
Where are the kids?
They're still sleeping.
Here.
Are you insane?
I should get paid for driving over here.
Unbelievable.
Hurry.
Gosh.
Are you free today?
I get off work early today, so let's take the kids out to eat.
I actually have to go somewhere today.
Why? Is something up?
I'll tell you later.
Dong Joo shark
Pretty
Actually,
coming to think of it, you look beautiful today.
Are you going somewhere?
I'm starting my training today.
Wait around with your teacher if I'm a little late today.
Will you be earning a lot of money too then?
Of course.
I'll earn a lot and buy you the biggest...
watermelon which you love...
and pay for Mid Eum's classes.
That's awesome!
Sa Rang, you're here.
- Hello. - Hi.
Bye!
I only got away during my lunch break.
What do you have on Secretary Han?
I don't have time, so just tell me.
Is she really your mother-in-law's right-hand woman?
What are you talking about?
She had an affair which is something your mother-in-law loathes.
Really?
How on earth did you find out?
She's the witness of the car accident at Golden Garden.
She was at the site of the crash...
but never officially reported it.
It's because she was with her lover.
She couldn't report it because it'll uncover her secret too.
She even had a child with him.
No way.
My mother-in-law has no idea.
If we tell her...
No, don't. If she plays dumb and denies it,
you'll only look like a fool.
What? Are you saying you have no proof?
Not yet.
Also, it's not like I can come forth.
I'll be telling the world that I was the one...
who caused that car crash.
Then what are we going to do?
It's why I called you here.
You must find out who she had the affair with.
She was on her way back from the Golden Garden Camp.
There's a high possibility that he works at I and K.
She nearly quit once.
Because she blamed herself for the Golden Garden accident.
Why would it be her fault?
At the time, I was sick so Mom couldn't go.
She and my father organized the event.
Mom,
I heard that she...
hosted the event with my father-in-law.
No way. That's impossible.
That can't be true.
I'm terrified just by thinking of it.
Joon Ki and his mom just barely found happiness again.
You're not in a position to worry about others.
Keep every option open and find evidence on her.
If you don't, then both our lives will go down in the drain.
Got it?
Are you insane? What if my wife...
She has a meeting until 4pm, so we're good.
What were you talking about earlier?
Does someone know about us?
Sabina's mother.
She asked if I had any dirty secrets of my own.
What?
Why on earth would she say that?
I was looking into her past.
My gosh.
You're truly insane.
You were asked to let it go, so why would you do this?
I have a bad feeling about her. I know something's not right.
I don't care. Just let it go!
But what if there are skeletons in her closet?
I doubt that's true, but even if she does,
she'll stay quiet just as long as you stay quiet too.
So stop arguing with me and just do as I say.
But how did she find out about us?
There's no way she knows.
She only took a shot at you because you've been poking around.
This is why I told you to leave the company.
Stop putting it off...
and leave the company before things get messy.
All right.
I'll wrap everything up by the end of the month.
I'm sure you're tired from the long lectures today.
You must listen to these courses...
to become an expert consultant at this company.
We'll start with the description for this product for children.
Who knows what children worry about the most these days?
- Yes? - They want to be taller.
That's right.
In order for that to happen,
they must take supplements that promote growth.
They'll grow taller and have improved immunity...
as well as balanced nutrition.
It all comes down to constant care.
I'm sorry, Detective Cha. I'm still not done.
Can I ask you for a favour though?
Why is your mom always late to pick you up?
It's because my mom and dad are divorced.
What does that word mean?
It means that they suddenly disappeared.
Really?
Then my dad is divorced too.
He just didn't come home one day.
Guys, are you hungry?
How about I bring a snack?
- Sure. - Sure.
- Wait here then. - Okay.
Did Dong Joo...
get a divorce too?
What's taking her so long?
So you're Sa Rang's uncle?
Uncle? Yes, I am.
I'm sorry for being so late.
Go ahead then. She's been waiting for you.
Really?
Sa Rang?
Where is she?
She's not here.
Do Yoon, where's Sa Rang?
She just left with a man.
What? Who?
She went with a man dressed in black.
Do Yoon, eat this and wait here.
Sa Rang!
Sa Rang?
Hey, stop right there.
Sa Rang, are you all right?
Who are you?
Tell me who you are!
You're home early.
Were you coming from Secretary Han's room?
She likes things to be clean, so she tidies her room herself.
But the sun was shining, so I thought I'd dry her sheets.
(Baby Journal)
The baby mother is Han Soo Mi and the baby is Yeol Moo.
Could it be a nickname?
(Baby Journal)
Why does she have a photo of Father?
1991, Barcelona?
Barcelona is where my dad had his affair 30 years ago.
So Secretary Han and Joon Ki's father...
You're back, Chairwoman Jin.
I saw Sabina's car. Has she come home?
Yes.
She was in the garden just a minute ago.
(Mom)
Mom, my hunch was right.
Secretary Han was involved with my father-in-law.
(Secretary Han was involved with my father-in-law.)
(Golden Garden)
