(Episode 49)
Do you know a Cha Mi Yun?
Who?
Cha Mi Yun.
No, I don't.
Who is she?
I don't mean to be rude,
but you were at Seoul Penitentiary 30 years ago, right?
Did you do a background check on me?
No. Please don't get the wrong idea.
I found out by chance while looking for someone.
Are you saying you're looking for this Cha Mi Yun?
Yes.
You're looking for me?
Why?
You believe I'm dead.
And you found out about me...
while looking for her.
When you were serving time in Seoul Penitentiary 30 years ago,
you and Cha Mi Yun shared a prison cell.
Don't you remember?
How can you be so sure it was me?
I'm sure there are many Jung Mi Aes.
I checked that.
So you did do a background check.
My apologies if I've offended you.
I meant nothing by it.
You don't have to tell me if you don't want to.
Back when I was struggling, I served time for fraud for not paying rent.
Back then...
a Cha Mi Yun in my cell?
She went in for fraud for embezzlement.
She was in her mid-20s.
Mi Yun.
I remember.
I remember she was very upset and said she lost her family unfairly...
and was framed.
We were close at the time,
but I had forgotten since it was so long ago.
I see.
Why are you...
looking for her?
She was married to an old friend.
I wanted to see her and tell her something.
You know she's dead,
but you want to see her and tell her something?
What are you up to?
Do you...
suspect me?
You care so much about your own child.
How are you so cruel to other people's...
No, not other people.
He's your friend's son.
How could you hurt him like that?
Is that how you define motherly love?
You don't care what happens to your friend's child,
as long as your child is happy, is that it?
That's how moms are.
What?
Was your mom not like that?
I heard about your mom.
I heard she didn't care about you because she was man-crazy.
It must have been so hard...
growing up with a mom like that.
That's why you have no concept of what's yours and not,
and tried to steal someone else's man and stabbed him in the back...
with a sex scandal like the cheap girl you are.
You look okay from the outside, but you're dirty to the core.
Did you do a background check on my mom too?
As a fellow mom,
I wanted to warn her to keep her daughter in check.
I'll give you a chance to give her that warning soon.
My mom is in Korea.
If you're looking for someone who died 30 years ago,
it must be something big.
Did Cha Mi Yun die?
That's right, she died.
She was released about a year after I was.
She died in a fire in a motel.
It was all over the news.
Didn't you know? You were a reporter.
I was on leave after getting married.
That's tragic...
what happened to my friend, his wife, and the baby.
That's right.
It was unbearably painful for a woman to bear alone.
She cried every night, calling out her husband's name.
I see.
You want...
to say something to her now?
I did something wrong.
I wanted to see her and ask for forgiveness,
but I guess I'll never get the chance.
What a shame.
Apologies should be made right away.
I wonder what you did wrong that you can't forget...
30 years later.
I'll have to beg for forgiveness when I see her in the afterlife.
Although I don't know if I can be forgiven.
Well,
that depends on what you do.
No.
You have no right to ask for forgiveness.
You can whine about that as you burn forever.
I can't wait to meet her.
Tell your mom I really want to meet her.
I'm sure she's just like you, but still.
You can look forward to it.
It'll be beyond your expectations.
Anyway, what do you plan to do?
Will you tell Hae Joon that you know?
Do you want to know?
I'll report that you'll proceed with the detox project with Nora.
I heard you said you'd get revenge on Hae Joon.
If you tell that to the world, it'll be one great revenge.
I can't wait to see it.
Just the revenge?
You'll have to see just how alike...
my mom and I are too.
Evil witch.
She's so feisty.
Hong In Chul asked you about Cha Mi Yun?
He knows she's dead,
but he asked me if I knew her.
That wicked and conniving bat.
What do you think...
he knows about your real identity?
He was probably shocked...
when he found out that I served in the same prison as Cha Mi Yun.
He played dumb and asked me that question...
to see if I'm related to her in some way.
He even dug up a dead person...
to find out who I am.
He doesn't suspect you...
to be Cha Mi Yun, does he?
How could he suspect me of being a dead person?
He'll go see my other cellmates.
Tell Danny to locate them.
Yes, ma'am.
Go ahead. Figure out who I am...
yourself.
You'll just faint.
Is anyone home?
Ms. Han Myung Sook!
Who are you looking for?
Hello. Do you know Ms. Han Myung Sook...
who lives there?
She's in the hospital.
The hospital?
He went to the hospital to see her, but she had a stroke.
She can't speak or communicate in any way,
so I doubt he'll go back.
If he's going himself,
it means he's very suspicious of me.
Which other cellmates are left?
Lee Young Ja.
I'll keep following him.
We're ready to strike him,
right?
Yes. The article regarding the greenbelt is ready.
We can post it at anytime.
Okay.
Ma'am. Koo Hae Joon is here.
Okay.
He's here to ask about you.
Jennis' father really was in the restaurant business?
That's what she told me.
She said she moved to Canada with her mother when she was young...
and went through a really tough time.
Unlike how she looks,
she endured great hardship and started from the bottom...
and rose to where she is today.
Did she say what her mother does?
I heard she has a business.
She's very close to her mother.
Her alum said she has absolute love and faith in her mother.
Did she?
Like comrades who barely survived a war together.
That's what she said.
Comrades?
That term got to me too.
They must have been through such hardship,
that even their lives were in danger.
I guess so.
Tell me if there's anything you want to know about Jennis.
I'll ask her for you.
She told me that she'd take over J Group.
I want to know why.
Whether it's just ambition,
if there's another reason,
or if she just said it to bother me.
I guess...
you're desperate to kick her out.
If she's innocent, there's no reason to kick her out.
The company just needs to check the facts.
I'll ask her,
although I don't know if she'll tell me.
Would you like to visit the fashion park construction site?
I heard you went with Jennis.
That's good enough.
But you're interested in it.
Since you're an investor, you can...
It's fine.
Okay.
Do you think Jennis will tell Hae Joon?
The moment she does,
he'll become more miserable.
People only know that he isn't Jae Myung's child.
They don't know he isn't J Group's blood.
It's not like he can say...
his grandmother switched babies for his mom's sake.
If word gets out that he isn't J Group's blood,
no family will take him to be their son-in-law.
Yoon Kyung...
will never be able to let him go.
J Group will eventually become his.
Do you really think...
Jae Myung didn't continue his lineage?
Do you know something?
No.
He got married on the condition that he doesn't have his own kids,
but that's hard, especially for him.
Who knows?
He may have a hidden child somewhere.
My little kid.
You are not your own.
You are...
the future of J Group.
You must succeed me...
and build it to become one of the best in the world.
Understand?
My precious baby.
It's what you used to say...
to Hae Joon 30 years ago.
Do you remember?
Now, do you know how I felt...
back then?
They threw me into Distribution,
and Hae Joon and Jennis...
went to the fashion park construction site.
I'm so upset.
I know.
Why did they stick them together? They should be torn apart.
I already told the chairman not to send them together again.
Hae Joon even lent her his scarf...
so she wouldn't catch a cold.
How long must I see them together?
That's because he's kind.
A real man doesn't ignore a woman who's cold.
Even if Jennis tries to seduce him,
he won't fall for it.
Really?
He's gone all-in with the company.
You know he's meeting with Nora's accounting manager...
to kick Jennis out.
I know. He's there again now.
So trust him.
Once you suspect someone, it never ends.
Ma'am. The food is ready.
Okay.
Bring Father.
Yes, ma'am.
He went into the study and never came out.
He has been doing that a lot lately.
Maybe he hid something there.
My gosh. He's so good.
He's so excited. Gosh.
Father.
Gosh.
That's right.
Father.
Hey! What's wrong with you?
Why didn't you knock?
I knocked and called out to you.
Didn't you hear me?
What?
You must be into videos of kids lately.
Which channel is it?
Why?
So I can subscribe to it too.
What? I don't know.
They're different kids each time.
You must want grandchildren.
We'll give you one quickly once we get married.
Wait just a little bit.
Sure.
Why are you wearing that indoors?
Take it off.
I'll put it back on you later.
It's Mi Yun's.
Mi Yun?
Who's Mi Yun?
Did Mi Yun give you this scarf?
Okay.
Seo Eun Ha is in Ms. Sul's room.
Okay. Let's go there.
This...
was from Carry Jung.
Why did she say Mi Yun?
Who's Mi Yun...
That...
Do you mean Cha Mi Yun from back then?
Mi Yun...
died.
Do you mean Cha Mi Yun, who died?
The dead Cha Mi Yun gave that to you?
I know you have dementia, but seriously.
Let go.
It's Mi Yun's!
Let go!
It's Mi Yun's!
Why are you bringing her up and annoying me? Let go!
Why did you bring her up?
Why are you bringing up Cha Mi Yun, who's dead?
Why are you suddenly saying her name?
What's so special about that scarf?
Seriously.
Are you okay?
Carry.
Yes, Dr. Seo.
What's going on?
She's scared.
What are you...
I was in my aunt's room...
and heard a scream, so I ran in.
What's wrong? Did she have another episode?
Yes. She suddenly started to twist around...
and fell.
Doesn't her guardian ever come?
It's her.
What are you talking about?
So you're her guardian.
No, I'm not.
I heard you didn't want people to know.
You can be honest with me.
You reached Lee Young Ja's son?
Where is he now?
They're not close, so she works at a restaurant.
She works and lives at this restaurant in Ansan.
I'll go and meet her.
No, I'll go myself.
Please don't tell anyone that there's some here...
that I look after.
Please don't tell...
Yoon Kyung either.
Is something wrong?
Please.
You know that scarf you gave her?
My friend is obsessed with it.
She must have liked it.
She must confuse you for someone else. So...
she thinks she gave it to her.
And who is that person?
Why can't you say it's Cha Mi Yun?
You said that name so easily in front of Mi Hyang.
Are you too afraid to say it?
Please invite me over sometime to your home.
With Yoon Kyung.
I was thinking of doing that, actually.
How about next weekend?
That sounds good.
Mi Hyang.
Don't you want to tell me something?
You'll tell me...
how my baby died, right?
You have to, Mi Hyang.
Lee Young Ja is off today?
Can I get her number?
I can't just give out her number to strangers.
I see. Then...
please ask her to call me here.
Okay.
She said the scarf from Carry...
was Mi Yun's.
Mi Yun? As in Cha Mi Yun?
You're stunned too, right?
I never expected her to say that name.
Did she say anything else?
I lost my temper...
and was yelling at her for bringing up Cha Mi Yun,
and of all the luck, Carry came in.
Carry?
She was in Ms. Oh's aunt's room,
and ran over when she heard Ms. Sul scream.
Did Carry hear you talk about Mi Yun?
I'm not sure. Who cares if she did?
But...
why do you think she suddenly brought up that woman?
I know she has dementia,
but she must have a reason.
What could a dementia patient do, even if she does remember?
It may be her dementia worsening.
At times, she seems perfectly normal.
I wish I could look inside of her head.
She said the scarf from Carry was from Mi Yun?
What's going on here?
Are you saying you'll betray us?
Let me finish.
If you want to catch a tiger, you must enter the tiger's den.
I'll go into Nora Fashion...
and take it over.
What?
I'll set the stage, so you can join later on.
I'll find a way to take over Nora Fashion...
legally.
Then we can get the detox line back.
That's right.
How did you think of that?
Business is more your forte than medicine.
You can't tell Jennis.
That brat may try something if she finds out.
Of course not.
Jennis is our enemy.
We have to keep this a secret.
Seo Eun Ha went to see Koo Jae Myung?
Is she here to tell him about the detox collaboration?
He'll throw a fit if he finds out.
Why would she tell him?
I'm sure she didn't agree to work with Nora...
unless she had something up her sleeve.
I'm sure she's planning something that we don't know about.
Oh my gosh.
Look at this office.
Did Hae Joon see this?
Is he leaving you here after seeing this?
I don't know.
He went to the fashion park site with Jennis a few days ago.
He should've gone with me.
I'm so annoyed.
Be patient.
Once we get the detox line back,
you'll be on top of the J Group pyramid.
Do you really plan to work with Nora Fashion?
I told you not to.
Am I stupid?
I already talked to Jae Myung.
Did Father approve it?
Why do I need his approval?
He's just tagging along with my plan.
What do you mean?
You don't need to know.
Just prepare to be the happiest spring bride.
Seeing how quiet things are,
I guess you haven't told Hae Joon yet.
You acted like you'd tell him right away.
I plan to use it at the most opportune time.
The most opportune time.
I'm wondering when and how I should use it...
so that it's more fatal to you.
It'll be fatal to Hae Joon, not me.
No. To be more precise,
to his mom.
Worst-case scenario,
I'll be criticized for being a jerk,
but her life will be destroyed.
You can't even fathom how she'll feel, can you?
You must know very well...
since you've already experienced your life falling apart...
after losing your daughter.
Do you want...
to gift that pain to your friend?
Look at this girl talk.
Are you really even friends?
How could you do that to a friend?
But then again,
friendship...
means different things to different people.
Some call people friends when they have no relationship.
Many people are friends in name only too.
What kind of friends are you two?
First, you threaten me, now you want to lecture me?
You get more amusing by the day.
Did you want to see me?
Hey. Nora Fashion and Dr. Seo...
are collaborating on the detox line.
- What? - Do you know what the plan is?
She's entering the tiger's den in order to catch the tiger.
Do you understand?
Are you saying she's collaborating with Nora to take them over?
Exactly. That's it.
We'll get the detox line back.
Father.
Dr. Seo is coming up with the plan, so just wait.
How much did you find out about Jennis' connection to them?
We need to find evidence quickly and kick her out...
and swallow up Nora.
Nora isn't that easy.
- We can't... - That's why you need to find proof.
I'll take care of it, so just go.
Go with it.
Ma'am.
Why do you keep doing this to me?
Aren't I growing on you now?
Are you going to pick up your son? I'll drive you.
Forget it.
It's hard to get a cab at this hour.
I won't ask you a thing. I'll just drive you.
Sun Ho's waiting for you.
How do you know my son's name?
I overheard you talking on the phone last time.
You should hurry. Sun Ho's waiting.
- Hi, Sun Ho. - Hello.
How cute.
I'll drive you home.
It's okay.
Thank you for the ride.
Mommy, I'm cold.
You're cold, right? Do you want a ride home?
Yes.
Let's go. I'll take you.
Let's go, Sun Ho.
Hae Joon is working hard on the accounting manager.
I think it'll be a matter of time before they find out who owns Nora.
We may want to beat him to the punch before we're found out.
What do you guys think?
A counterattack sounds good.
Offense over defense.
Is this Ms. Lee Young Ja?
Hello. I'm the person who left the business card.
Can we meet today?
I need to ask you something in person.
Yes, thank you.
I'll call you from there in an hour.
If his mom died less than a day after he was born,
he probably never got to be held by her.
Poor thing.
I know.
They must miss each other so dearly.
The baby, the mom.
The mom, the baby.
Mom.
I'm okay.
He's so tiny.
How much did I weigh when I was born?
You weren't quite 3kg.
Did you breastfeed me...
until I was one?
Yes.
Seeing the babies here,
I realize how blessed I am.
Thank you, Mom.
I'm the one who's thankful.
Jung Mi Ae?
She shared a cell with you in the penitentiary.
I wouldn't know just from the name.
That was 30 years ago.
Do you have a picture?
I'll send it to you later. Then...
what about Cha Mi Yun?
I heard she was in your cell too.
Cha Mi Yun?
I'm not sure.
She was in her mid-20s at the time.
She went to jail for embezzling funds from a bank.
Her husband had died in an accident...
and her baby in an incubator...
Do you remember?
Yes. She was very pretty.
We called her "Seoul Girl".
Come to think of it now, I do remember Jung Mi Ae.
Those girls were best friends.
- Best friends? - Yes.
They were closer than sisters.
I think I heard...
they were always together even after they got out.
Even after they got out?
Yes.
Find a nice mom and dad soon...
and grow up happily, okay?
Danny texted.
Hong In Chul found out that Cha Mi Yun and Jung Mi Ae...
were best friends.
(Gracious Revenge)
Put it in my name.
In your name?
You poor dear. You can't rely on your dad's status anymore.
It overlaps with when Carry showed up.
Are you saying she's here to get revenge?
If Carry approached us, she probably prepared thoroughly.
We can't show our hand first.
Tell me why you're interested in Sul Mi Hyang.
I'll make it worth your while.
Once Seo Eun Ha signs the contract for the detox line, it's game over.
Isn't it odd?
Something bad happens to everything Carry invests in.
What proof do you have for saying Carry caused the problems?
