----
Let’s finish everything today, Lee Jung Ku.
I'll make sure you beg me and my son Hyun Woo...
...for forgiveness for what you've done to us.
Then I'll make the rest of your life a living hell.
This is a gift for you, my son.
Mommy will give you something better…
…when I earn more money later.
Where is this place?
Did you follow me?
Since you lied about John Howard... being your nephew...
...it'd be hard for you to have a meeting with him in the hotel.
I wondered what kind of great conspiracy you’d hatch with him…
…so I came here to hear about it…
…but I’m disappointed.
Didn’t your son tell you about me?
Then you wouldn't know that...
...I...
...will put everything I have into stopping you.
Wow.
What should I do?
I’m scared to death.
You seem to be very secretive.
It makes me wonder what you're really putting into this battle.
Good. You should look forward to it.
I've warned you plenty of times you should wait for the right moment.
But yet again, you failed to control your emotions...
…and fought with my son like an idiot.
If you want to have a war…
…you’d better deal with me.
Mothers are much scarier...
...when their children are hurt.
You better be careful.
I didn't know you cared so much about your son.
Ah. After all...
...I heard he's only your stepson.
Yes, mother?
Where are you?
You told us you were coming, so I cleaned up the house.
Why are you leaving so soon?
The person I supposed to meet here can’t come for personal reasons.
Thank you, Ms. Baek Mi Yeon.
I’m the one, who should be thanking you.
After all, you pay me for using my name.
You’re Baek Mi Yeon, Miss?
Yes.
I’m Baek Mi Yeon, the owner of this house.
Who are you, mister?
Mi Yeon.
What’s going on?
Did anyone visit here after he came by?
No, no one came.
Okay.
Take care.
Bye.
Excuse me.
The house over there with the blue door…
Do you know who owns that house?
No one lives there.
[Real estate office]
[Owner: Baek Mi Yeon] [Date of Birth: May 23, 1977]
[439 Hoenggye-ri, Daegwanryeong-myeon, Pyeongchang-gun, Gangwon-do]
Mr. Yoo.
It’s me.
I’d like you to look into something.
Did you just get back from somewhere?
Did something happen to you?
Why didn’t you tell your mom about…
…Lee Jung Ku and the general manager.
I... I can...
- I can explain. - Let me tell you something first.
What you know is the truth.
The night Chairman Ah died...
…I was in the room with him...
...but it wasn't me.
I didn’t kill him.
I know.
You should've asked me first.
Why did you let Lee Jung Ku and the general manager threaten you?
I didn't want you to worry about this.
I’m sorry.
Don’t try too hard.
You’re the only family I have in this world...
…and that’s all I need.
I need to find out more information about the general manager.
I can’t stand him anymore.
I’ll do it.
He's been bothering me too, so I've been investigating him anyway.
I’ll do it.
He must have startled you pretty badly.
Things would be better for you if I were an ordinary mother.
I’m sorry for who I am.
Don’t ever think that way again.
I love you no matter what…
…since you’re my mother.
Yes.
He told me to find out about a woman named Baek Mi Yeon…
…who was born in May 23rd, 1977.
Tell him she's just...
...a woman with no relationship to me.
Yes, I will.
I should study stock trading and M&A.
I need to know how to fight with them.
I didn’t know that Cha Su Wan was interested in stocks.
You know that I love studying.
Okay.
Serve him well.
Jae Wan trusts you a lot.
It’s me.
This is what I think, Miss Bok Soon.
Yes?
It may not be my business, but…
…the son of Woo Jin Farms, Sun Woo Hyun, has had his role reversed with yours now.
I don't understand why he's still begging for your love.
I just can’t understand this situation.
To help him give up on you, you should disappear from his sight...
...or just accept his love.
Excuse me, Manager Jang Ho Il.
Yes, Ms. Chairman.
No, Miss Ah Bok Soon. Keep going.
We’re just friends.
What you're saying makes our relationship uncomfortable.
Does it?
I didn't mean to make things awkward.
I just have issues controlling my mouth.
It’s crazy. It’s crazy.
Still, I will be more careful in the workplace…
…because I don’t want Sun Woo Hyun to get hurt.
Ah, yes.
I do appreciate your warm understanding.
See you, then.
Miss Ah Bok Soon.
I’d like you to go to the VIP guest room 1303 right now…
…and assist the other staff with a private party.
Hello.
I’m not joking.
This is Miss Ah Bok Soon, the maid in charge of your party today.
I hope you have a good time.
Thank you for your service today.
Ah.
So this is Ah Mo Ne...
...the former chairman who became a maid after causing so much trouble.
Ooh!
She's so poor.
But then, you must be shameless, too.
People don't usually make comebacks like this.
I’ll take that as a compliment.
What do you want me to do now?
Here.
Would you clean up here?
Yes, ma’am.
I’m so sorry.
You should be more careful.
Aren’t you a maid here?
You shouldn’t expect us to treat you differently…
…just because you used to be the chairman here.
No way.
She wasn’t treated well by her employees even when she was the chairman.
And she got fired eventually.
Would you like to have some other food?
No, thank you.
Just clean it up.
Yes, ma’am.
Leave the food there and get out, Mr. Sun Woo Hyun.
I looked into Baek Mi Yeon.
She's just a newlywed woman.
She's not related to anyone at the hotel.
Do you know her?
What’s going on?
I’m not here to talk to the general manager.
I came to speak with Cha Jae Wan as a man.
Go ahead.
Have you started your relationship with Ah Mo Ne again?
That's not an appropriate question to be asked during work hours.
It's because I just saw something absurd during work hours.
Why does Miss Ah Mo Ne have to be humiliated by CEO Song Chae Kyung like this?
Can you be sure that you aren’t involved in this matter?
Do you know how much this shoe is?
I’m so sorry.
Are you trying to clean my shoes with tissues?
CEO Song.
What’s wrong with this hotel?
I’m sorry.
If you wait just a moment, I'll clean them properly.
I’ll do it, Mr. General Manager.
Here. Pour me some more wine.
You know you should be eye-level with a guest when you pour wine.
Yes.
Let me do this for you.
Please leave, Mr. General Manager.
I’m the maid in charge of this room.
The party is over.
Go back now.
I’m sorry.
I’m so sorry.
I’m sorry.
I'm sorry.
Listen to me carefully.
It's your mistake...
...for provoking me like this.
What are you doing?
Aren’t you going to follow her?
If this kind of thing happens again, tell me.
Go after her.
Song Chae Kyung…
...is hurt…
…because of you and me.
What are you doing?
You should have done it to me.
Did I ever beg you to love me?
No matter how precious your love is to you...
...you should've at least let me have my pride.
You completely ignored the promise you made me...
…and only cared about Ah Mo Ne.
You're just a bad man who uses the woman who loves you.
I've put my life on such a bad man...
…and you made me to do it!
Let me explain.
Explain what?
How much you love Ah Mo Ne?
How badly you want to protect her regardless how much I bleed for your love?
Sure.
Ah Mo Ne's become Cinderella...
...so you have to be her Prince Charming.
I'm not the one protecting her, Chae Kyung.
Ah Mo Ne has protected and saved me.
There was a time...
...when I wanted to just stop breathing and die.
She stayed beside me then...
...so I could live my life.
Cha Jae Wan.
There’s something you don’t know.
I’m…
...a woman…
…who loves a man.
You shouldn’t have asked my help in the first place.
You’re right.
The same way you can never leave Ah Mo Ne...
…I can never leave you.
It means I only have one option left.
If I’m not allowed to love you, then I'll hate you just as much.
Poor you, Cha Jae Wan.
You have one more enemy now.
Song Chae Kyung.
You're so pathetic.
Look how ugly you are.
Why did you have to pretend to be so cool?
You should have begged him instead and told him...
...you were sorry...
...and you won't do it again...
...so he might just let you stay close to him.
I didn’t see anything.
You’re here to harass Cha Jae Wan, aren’t you?
I can help.
Ask me anything you need to.
I know all of his weaknesses.
If you say something like that when you're crying...
…no one will trust what you say.
You should take this kind of chance.
Call me when you need me.
You’re here.
I borrowed some books for the chairman.
She's been studying really hard for the last several days.
Why didn’t you give them to her directly?
She looked really bad…
...just like you do now, Mr. General Manager.
I knew you’d be depressed like this.
I want to have a rematch with you...
...since I lost last time. How's that?
Maybe later.
I’d like to get some rest now.
Did I hear you right?
This is an order from your superior.
Let’s go. Sports are the best thing to cheer you up.
If you don’t like basketball, what about climbing?
Or would you rather go ride bikes? The weather's nice.
Sun Woo Hyun.
You care about me, right?
I don't feel the same.
It’s true that I like you and I appreciate you, but…
…I care about something else.
I think I should tell you this.
You don't like me caring about you?
- That’s not what I meant… - Then it’s okay.
I’m fine as long as you don’t feel uncomfortable about me.
I don’t know.
For now, I’m just satisfied that...
...I can be with you and I can be a help to you.
That’s all.
I’m now sure how I’ll change later.
If I start to expect more from you and it gets difficult to be with you...
…I’ll tell you then.
Don't even tell her that later, Sun Woo Hyun.
I didn’t hear your conversation intentionally.
I had a thought after you came to my office this afternoon.
It's true I was irresponsible and cowardly.
I'd like to take up courage from now on.
We’re in the residence.
I didn’t come here as a general manager.
Cha Jae Wan came here to talk to Ah Mo Ne.
I’m sorry.
I’d like to go in first.
This isn’t like you, Mr. General Manager.
Forgive me.
I was so desperate.
I gave you plenty of chances. You know that, right?
Yes, I do.
But now... I can’t believe you anymore.
The general manager is waiting for you in Mo Ne’s garden.
I…
…don’t want you to go there.
Your head is still only full of Cha Jae Wan in that uniform.
Didn’t you come back here to get revenge on me…
….after you decided to give up on your crazy love?
Cha Jae Wan.
If I hold your hand…
…someone will get hurt…
…and you may get hurt again because of me.
Please let me stand alone.
I lied to you again.
I can't keep my word that I won't try and get you back.
I don't think I can ever let you go.
It may sound selfish to you…
...but I live for you.
I'm satisfied that you come just close enough for me to see you.
Just stay there…
...until I'm worthy of being with you.
I’ll wait for you…
…from now on.
Baek Mi Yeon.
Baek Mi Nyeo.
No, no, no.
Unni?
[Unni: ]
It can’t be her older sister.
Who the hell is she?
Mr. Vice Chairman.
Yes. What did you find out about her?
There's no death certificate for Baek Mi Yeon.
What… What did you say?
Hey, Baek Mi Yeon is dead!
I saw her died with my own eyes.
I'm quite certain.
Are you sure that you witnessed her death?
Why aren’t you getting out?
Lee Jung Ku!
You bastard!
Lee Jung Ku.
You bastard.
I'm okay.
[Fund Management]
I borrowed some books for the chairman.
She's been studying really hard for the last several days.
Hello, Mr. General Manager.
C1988-K305.
Please see if there's a book with that call number in your system.
Oh, of course.
It doesn't exist in the system.
Are you sure it's a call number from our library system?
Yes, it is.
Oh, there are some old books reserved in the basement.
[Monet]
I thought you were taking time to control yourself.
Are you okay coming to the hotel like this?
I feel the steak here...
...is always so tender, CEO Song.
Thank you.
Please enjoy your meal.
Are you still chasing after Jae Wan?
He's so pathetic, isn’t he?
Even with a beautiful and brilliant woman like you after him...
...he's stuck on that impolite brat of a maid.
Tsk, tsk, tsk.
I'll hear you out.
Tell me what you have to say.
I’m here to discuss business with you...
...CEO Song.
The whole world knows you're flat broke.
What could you possibly mean by business?
Yes, I've lost everything...
...but one thing. It's something you'd be interested in.
My son.
Jae Wan hasn't told you yet.
He's tight-lipped, just like his father.
I don't believe you are here to make an obvious lie...
...which could be revealed in no time...
...then why have you been tormenting your own son until now?
No, you misunderstand me.
I’ve never tormented him.
I just educated him a little more strictly than most...
...but it was out of love.
You look surprised.
He doesn’t look like it, but…
...he does actually listen to me quite well.
What are you doing, CEO Song?
I'm not selling my food to you.
Instead, I’ll hear more about your business proposal…
…since Cha Jae Wan is worth it to me.
Sure.
What is this?
Long time no see.
You know me, don’t you?
As soon as the M&A rumor spread, all of this month's events were canceled...
...and the chairman rejected the proposal for the new promotion plans...
...even though you approved them.
She says it's cost-effective.
We have no choice.
Let’s prepare other promotion plan.
Okay.
Ah, I heard that Ms. Cha went to Las Vegas.
Yes, she has family business there.
It’s a personal issue, so I don’t know the details either.
Are you sure that she went to Las Vegas?
What is that supposed to mean?
Oh, nothing.
I'm just curious since you seem to be hiding things from us recently.
[Cha Su Wan]
Let’s do our best.
It’s an emergency.
He’s so suspicious.
[Sunbae: Upper-class man]
*Sunbae, do you have a crush on her?
Give up on her. She’s too stubborn.
Who was it that started the rumors?
I told you that I heard it from her.
I read about it on the board.
What happened?
Ah, Ms. Chairman.
The rumors about the hotel's disposal started spreading this morning.
What is she talking about?
Who spread this rumor?
We can’t dismiss it as a rumor, Ms. Chairman.
The postings on the board say your nephew is a corporate raider…
…who came here to sell off the hotel.
The before and after pictures of his disguise are there, too.
What are you talking about?
How dare you talk about the chairman’s nephew like that?
It’s only a rumor.
I think we need a clear explanation about your nephew, Ms. Chairman.
There's too much evidence against him on the board.
I read it with interest, too.
It’s true that my nephew is a M&A specialist...
...but it's just his job. It's not related to the hotel...
...so take good care of the staff to prevent rumors from spreading anymore.
You want me to sell Ciel to you as a whole...
...before Chairman Baek sells it off piece by piece.
You caught on quickly.
It'd be too sad to sell of Ciel, the best hotel in the country...
...in pieces... to a foreign capital company.
That would be too tragic.
I’m sorry, but…
…I don’t have much patriotism for this country.
Then, what about money?
If you’re talking about commission…
…I’ve suggested enough already.
By the way, I don’t think you’re the buyer in this deal, Mr. Lee Jung Ku.
That’s right.
But there are many people...
...who love Ciel other than me.
It’s nice to meet you.
I’m Song Chae Kyung.
Are you here as a representative of GR Group?
What did I tell you?
I told you to do this work quickly.
If you'd let me sell it off altogether, I'd be done by now.
You knew there are less potential buyers when you sell a hotel bit by bit.
The person who asked me to leave no trace about Ciel...
...it was you, Ms. Chairman.
I think that I offered you enough as commission.
As you know, timing is a key.
You told me to start when the stock falls due to the food poisoning issue…
…but you even had a press conference.
You shouldn’t be uncooperative with me like this.
I heard that rumors about us are already spreading.
If my involvement in disposing the hotel without any specific problem is exposed…
...the labor union and media won't be quiet about it.
Then I'll be out of this business in no time.
So, what do you want?
I’m telling you to stop pushing me and ordering me around...
...because...
...I’m not your subordinate.
I’ll be in touch later.
He must have other plan.
It was delivered to the chairman.
How did these two...
Lee Jung Ku... I have to stop him now.
It's not just Lee Jung Ku who you have to stop.
The person who spread the rumor about the disposal…
...and the person who sent us this picture...
Do you think it was the general manager?
I’ll take care of Lee Jung Ku.
You should hurry your investigation on Cha Jae Wan.
Honey!
Da Bae!
I’m back.
Ho… Honey.
[Divorce Registration]
What?
Honey.
I understand you're upset with me, but this is too much.
Was it really you...
...who gave Chairman Ah Sung Won the medicine...
...that killed him?
Hey, what are you talking about?
This is a misunderstanding.
I just gave a sick person his medicine.
Just divorce me quietly.
Da Bae doesn’t want to see you for the rest of her life.
Honey! Honey!
How can I live without Da Bae?
Ho… honey!
Dr. Yoon, that fool…
He hesitated when I told him to prescribe that medicine to Chairman Ah.
Take care of him too.
No!
It isn’t true! I didn’t do it!
If you keep this in mind, you'll become the best hotelier you can be.
That's it for today’s lecture.
Thank you.
[Best service for customer satisfaction]
Want to get some beer since we're already out of the hotel?
Noah, why don't you go back first?
Miss Yoon Da Jung and I need to talk.
It's something between front desk associates.
Wow, this is pretty.
I should selfie in a place this pretty.
By the way...
...what are we going to do if someone sees us walking around a date spot like this?
I'm worried it's gonna cause me trouble when I try and get married.
Hey, I'm the one worried about not being able to get married because of you.
You're the one who asked me out.
I know I can't expect expensive handbags or shoes from you, but...
...can't you at least buy me coffee?
Here, here, here.
What is it?
Happy now?
And for the record, when did I tell you that I can’t buy you handbags or shoes?
You do have a good taste.
Speaking of, this is expensive.
Isn’t it too much for you?
I can afford it.
Don't think you can be my boyfriend this way.
I'm only taking it as your colleague.
You said you'd buy me coffee. What is this?
It's famous in this town.
This is famous?
Look what they’re doing on the street.
Mr. Jin Jung Han, you knew what kind of place this was before you brought me here.
Darn it.
- Mr. Go? - Mr. Go?
Hey, one moment...
Ms. So Mun Jung?
Hey!
We were just passing by here…
By the way, when did Yoon Da Jung and Jin Jung Han start going out?
- No, we’re not! - We're not!
Your hands!
No, it’s nothing.
I’m not late, Ms. Chairman.
You've been visiting the hotel a lot recently, Mr. Lee Jung Ku.
I wanted you to know I got your gift.
Is that right?
You could've thanked me over the phone.
In return...
...I’d like you to treat you a dinner.
There's something I want to tell you, too.
No thank you.
Then...
...do you want me to invite Loman instead?
Where are you going?
We’re almost there.
Stop the car…
…Lee Jung Ku.
You recognized it right away.
I can’t believe that you’re alive, Baek Mi Yeon.
You don’t have to be surprised.
I know who you are now…
...so you can't scare me anymore.
Yes.
You've changed so much, Mi Yeon.
Stop the car!
Get out!
Get out of the car!
Come here!
Here! This is the place, right?
Have you been planning ever since the accident...
...and seeing me in the hotel...
...to attack me like this?
Sure.
You should be awful just like that.
That’s the Baek Mi Yeon I know.
Of course. You've changed so much...
…but one thing is still the same.
It's that gaze of contempt!
That’s right.
You played me?
How dare you, Baek Mi Yeon?
Not anymore! It won’t work any longer.
Let me thank you for not begging me to forgive you...
…even after you know who I am.
Ha!
Do you know what kind of life I've had to live...
...after losing my leg because of you?
Thirty three years ago!
You only lost your leg!
I lost everything I had!
What?
I lost everything!
What are you doing?
I should have killed you then.
My poor Hyun Woo died because of you!
My baby!
He died because of you!
You!
Die!
No…
They went out together. Mr. Lee Jung Ku was driving her car.
Die!
You should die with me!
Mother!
- Mother! - No!
You should die with me!
You!
Die!
- Then what about me? - Die!
What about me, mother?
No, mother.
Doing this will just make you like him.
If it’s necessary, I’ll do it.
I’ll do it.
If you die…
…I can’t live either.
I could push him down.
I could push him down...
...but I couldn't...
I couldn’t kill him.
I’ve waited for this moment my whole life.
I’ve waited for this moment my whole life...
...but I couldn't kill him!
I couldn’t kill him!
What should I do?
My baby...
I’m so sorry.
I’m so sorry, Hyun Woo.
Hyun Woo, I’m so sorry!
Your mother is sorry!
Hyun Woo!
I’m sorry!
I’m so sorry! Mommy is sorry!
Mommy is so sorry...
What will we do?
Ms. Hwang is so desperate to find out who posted that on the board...
...that she'll keep bothering us for a while.
Miss Bok Soon, the rumor about the disposal...
It isn’t true, is it?
I’m not sure myself.
I've finally gotten used to my new job.
If the hotel is sold...
...part-timers like us will be the first to get fired...
…so I’m so scared.
- Really? - Really?
I haven’t paid off my student loans yet.
I have fifteen years left on my mortgage.
Huh?
Kitty!
Kitty.
Were you looking for me?
If your leave your house, your brother will go look for you, too.
Go home now.
Fine, I'll take you home.
Let’s go.
No, it's dangerous to expose it all at once.
Okay. Thank you.
Did you tell the chairman...
...that you found the diary?
Not yet.
Kitty.
Don’t leave your house again.
If you leave here, your brother will get really lonely.
Then you should come here more often and take care of him.
If you aren't here, he'll just become an alley cat again...
...so come by often to feed him…
…and pet him.
We promised to do the work together.
Why aren’t you telling me where Cha Su Wan went?
There's something I have to return to you.
Can you just wait for me a little longer?
I've been a coward recently.
I can’t believe this!
I'm never coming back here again.
The suite renovations were supposed to start next month...
...but they suddenly started work this morning.
I don’t know what happened, but…
...electricity and water to the guest rooms have been cut.
What about refunds?
We gave them all refunds, but...
...I'm worried some of them might try to sue us.
I can't believe what's happened here, Mr. General Manager.
This hotel opened less than half a year ago…
...and now we're remodeling guest rooms during our peak season.
I have authority over guest room changes as a general manager.
Leave skeleton crews on duty and gather everyone else in the seminar room.
Okay.
Be careful. Be careful.
Is it true the chairman's trying to sell off the hotel...
...piece by piece like the rumors say?
As far as I've been able to confirm, it is the truth.
I've also confirmed...
...the information you saw on the board about John Howard.
What's happening, then?
Will we all be fired?
I didn't ask you here so we could worry together.
I want to ask you all a favor so that we can live together.
With my authority as a general manager...
…I’ll stop the room renovations and reopen all suites to guests.
The room rate will also return to the usual price.
Deliver my message to guests clearly.
What you're saying goes directly against the chairman's will.
What if this gets us in trouble?
It won't matter if there is no Ciel.
I'll deliver your message to the guests so we can run smoothly during peak season.
Thank you.
The general manager called up his staff...
...so he could lie to them.
You’re so pathetic.
Do you really think that it’s a lie?
The general manager can just move to another hotel when his contract expires.
I'd like to advise you all not to listen to him.
Do you know the number of guest rooms in Ciel?
What about average number of guest per month?
Do you know how many employees we have?
Do you know the places they use most often?
You should know all this before you can protect Ciel.
You and I think differently, Director Lee.
[Chairman: Baek Mi Nyeo]
He wants to give it one last try.
Take care of employees loyal to the general manager.
Whether it’s an disciplinary action or discharge…
…I need to set an example to keep them from going against me.
Let go!
Let go of me!
I called you to clean up the room.
I haven’t cooked in a while…
…so I messed up the kitchen.
Please take care of it.
Miss Ah Mo Ne, please have a word with me for a moment.
You don’t have to do this…
…to call me.
I've been sick recently.
It's been making more cheap and immature as time goes by.
It is a horrible disease.
People are cheap and immature naturally.
You didn't know that because you pretend to be elegant.
It does comfort me.
I'm here to threaten you.
First, harassing me...
...and now you're trying to exile me to a foreign country?
The lengths you go to are really impressive.
It belongs to Cha Jae Wan.
Yes, of course.
As I explained, the room rate is the same as it was.
Thank you.
I’ll transfer your call to the reservation center.
You are so arrogant.
Is it because you're the son of Jin Woo Farm's CEO?
How dare you change the hotel’s policies like that?
It's because it's the right thing to do.
A concierge ignoring the chairman's orders like this...
…is the right thing to do?
Even a concierge is doing his best to save this hotel.
What are you doing, Ms. Chairman?
Mr. General Manager.

Get out of my sight.
Don't ever show yourself to Cha Jae Wan again.
I want to clean up all of this...

We should do lots of good things from now on.
Why did you hide that your father is Lee Jung Ku?
