(Episode 108)
Your dad's fully awake now.
Dad.
Why are you here? I thought you never wanted to see me again.
Dad.
That's far from what he actually did.
He was scared that something bad might happen to you,
so he would come here every day and cry his eyes out.
Do you know how much he waited for you to wake up?
I'm sorry, Dad.
Why are you crying?
I'm not about to die any time soon.
I can't die yet because I have a lot to do.
Ji Young, thank you for coming here every day...
to take care of me.
I'm so grateful toward you guys.
Thank you. It's all thanks to you.
I didn't do anything. Father's the one who fought through.
I knew you'd become better, Father.
Don't ever collapse again, okay?
Okay.
Is everything okay with the company?
You should get better soon, Dad.
By the way, where's Kyung Shin?
Did she go somewhere?
You should just focus on becoming healthy again.
Practice walking.
Okay.
Let's not tell him about Kyung Shin until your dad fully recovers.
I'm scared that he might get shocked and collapse again.
Okay.
Where did she go anyway?
I don't know.
She probably went to a hotel or something.
She took everything that's worth money.
So don't worry about her.
And don't even try to contact her.
Use this chance to cut ties with her.
Now that Dad's awake,
we'll be able to find out who made that paper company.
This must be hard for you, Hyun Joon.
What do you want?
Mother kicked me out.
She made the bodyguards drag me out of the house.
How could she do that to her daughter-in-law?
Keep in mind that my proxy will be handling the divorce procedures.
Fine, let's get divorced.
I'll agree to the divorce.
Instead, I'm going to raise Tae Woong.
What?
A child needs to grow up with a mom.
And the fact that I'm his mom will never change.
My dad's fully awake now.
Everything will be revealed soon,
so just worry about yourself.
- Yes, Ms. Choi. - The chairman's awake.
I'm going to hide somewhere.
So I want you to act like...
you don't know anything if you ever get investigated. Okay?
Oh, okay.
You know nothing.
Okay?
Yes, ma'am.
Okay, then.
How are things with the company?
It wasn't doing so well,
but Sang Hyuk and I are trying to take care of everything.
Don't worry so much, Dad.
We're handling it pretty well.
He's right. You should just focus on getting better soon.
Now that...
I've come back from the doorsteps of death,
I finally realize that I've been living such a lousy life.
I was too crazy about money,
and I abused my power to people who were weak.
I should've known how to share,
but I was so obsessed about making profit.
My gosh.
I deserved to get bombarded with bags of flour,
and I deserved to get criticized.
My gosh, that wasn't because of you.
It was because of Kyung Shin.
Back when we were young, our economy was skyrocketing,
so it was normal to pressure subcontractors like that.
But the world's different now.
I should've listened to you guys earlier.
I'm sorry for being so stubborn.
My generation's over now.
I'm going to step down from management now.
I'll leave you guys to take care of everything.
But let's be grateful that Mr. Nam came...
and apologized for what he did.
He knows you did nothing wrong,
but some bad person asked him to say all those stuff on purpose.
What? Who?
I don't know.
We reported the case to the police, and they're trying to find him.
I think it could've been one of our competitors.
They probably wanted to scar our brand image...
since we were already going through a mess.
Anyway, Mr. Nam confessed the truth to the press.
So not a lot of people are criticizing you anymore.
It's a relief.
I'm glad I didn't die.
Dad, do you happen to know a company named JNC?
What? What's JNC?
Have you really not heard of it?
No.
I knew it. It was Kyung Shin.
What was she thinking?
Where is she? Do you know?
I don't know. Let's go to the company first.
- Yes, Ms. Choi. - Everything's over now.
My father-in-law's awake now,
so it won't take long for them to find out about the paper company.
- Let's run away together. - What?
Run away?
Let's go abroad.
You can come back once the issue dies out.
And even when you return, you won't be sentenced for a long time.
Instead, I'll financially help you support and care for your mom...
until she dies.
Okay, Ms. Choi.
We don't have time.
Hurry up and bring all the money.
Okay.
You don't have a separate office,
so you can use the chairman's room for the time being.
Chairman Shin also agreed to it.
Okay.
Now that you've become the new leader of the company,
I'm going to step down.
A new batch of alcohol should be poured into a new bottle.
You should appoint a new chief secretary.
But you play an important role in keeping our company stable.
So you can't just quit.
You've been working with my dad for a really long time.
So I'd like to appoint you as the chief secretary...
of our honorary chairman.
Please do me a favor.
Okay, sir.
I should do whatever I can to help the chairman.
I'll also step down.
Hyun Joon, you're the one who knows most about the company.
And you wanted to lead the company toward a better path.
You can't step down.
You need to stay and help me out.
He's right.
Your brother will feel reassured...
if you help him by his side.
Yes, of course.
Okay, then I'll quietly support you by your side.
Thanks, Hyun Joon.
The first thing we need to take care of is the bank issue.
Please schedule a meeting with the bank presidents.
- Okay, sir. - Okay.
Gosh, you must be tired. You can stop now.
No, I need to keep massaging your legs to help with your blood flow.
Is there anything you want to eat?
No.
She practically lived here.
She stood right next to you and cared for you.
And she brought me delicious food...
so that I could gain strength and cheer up.
I don't know how we would've lived without her.
Thank you.
Don't mention it, Father.
I'm so sorry...
for what I did to you.
I did so many unforgivable things to you.
I'm sorry.
I...
came from the countryside,
so all I ever cared about was making money.
I was living my life based on greed.
And I did all those things because I was dumb.
I was very merciless and cruel to anyone who dared...
to mess with my family.
But the problem was that I was misinformed about you,
but without even knowing that, I threatened you...
and even bullied your family.
I did so many unforgivable things.
I wouldn't have been able to say this to you if I just died.
But I guess the skies let me live so that I could get a chance...
to apologize to you like this.
Thank you, Father.
I'm so grateful that you became our daughter-in-law...
because you brought warmth into our family.
I don't know why I couldn't recognize your kind heart.
I'm both sorry and thankful.
From now on, I'll be really nice to you.
I'm going to adore you very much.
So if you're still upset about anything I've done to you,
I hope you forgive me.
I'm not upset. I'm serious, Father.
Thank you.
We have such a kind daughter-in-law.
Be careful. Walk slowly.
- Be careful. - Watch out.
Sit down.
I want to go home.
If you wanted to go home so badly,
what took you so long to wake up?
Let's wait until the doctor gives you approval to go home.
Practice walking while you're here.
Is Tae Woong doing well?
Did he cry because he was worried that I might die?
Of course. He cried every day.
I miss him.
- Should I bring him here? - Yes, you should.
- You're home so early. - Yes.
Soo Ji!
Soo Ji, it's me, your dad.
I came running like lightening because I missed you so much.
To be honest, I missed you more than I missed your mom.
What?
No, no.
I missed your mom way more.
I suddenly have a girlfriend and a baby.
I'm not even sure if this is real.
It's not a dream. It's real.
Hye Rim.
I want to live here starting from today.
What? Here?
Yes, I'll take care of the baby and do all the house chores.
You have to return to the hospital soon.
Then what about your work?
Should I take a leave? Or should I just quit?
What are you talking about? You just started working there.
I can't focus on work because of you and Soo Ji.
I keep wanting to run over here.
Then are you telling me to become the breadwinner?
Do you think I'm a moneymaker or something?
I'm seriously so happy these days.
I'm going to live here, okay?
I have nowhere to go anyway.
You're not giving me a choice.
I can't believe Hye Rim's mine!
I've waited 20 years for this.
I'm so happy.
Hey, let me down.
Wait.
Did you clear things up with Doctor Jo?
Nothing's going to happen before you clear things up with her.
I told her today...
that you're the woman I love.
I told her that you're the only woman I'll ever love.
And that I'll love you until the moment I die.
Can I take a short trip to the bank?
Sure.
- Come on. - Grandpa.
- My goodness. - Goodness.
My little puppy's here.
- Grandpa. - Come here.
My gosh.
I almost died without getting to see you.
Exactly. You can't die without seeing Tae Woong.
Grandpa, are you sick?
No, I'm okay now.
Grandpa, here.
My goodness, I'm all better now thanks to you.
- My gosh. - Goodness, my little puppy.
My gosh.
Yes?
Ji Young, I called because I have a favor to ask.
Can you let me see Tae Woong?
- Tae Woong? - It won't be for long.
Let me see him for just a short while.
Please.
Ji Young, please.
- Hello? - Hyun Joon.
Kyung Shin asked me if she could see Tae Woong for a short while.
Will that be okay?
Can I let her see him for just a little while?
Okay.
Go ahead.
- Tae Woong. - Mom.
Tae Woong.
Mom, where were you?
I'm sorry.
I was really busy.
Tae Woong.
Something urgent came up,
so I need to go on a business trip.
So I won't be able to see you for a really long time.
For how long?
It's going to take some time.
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
You should be a good boy and have fun...
with your grandparents and your dad until I come back, okay?
Mom, don't go. Don't go, Mom.
I'm sorry.
You're a good boy.
I'll come back as soon as possible.
Okay, Tae Woong?
Thank you. I'll go now.
Where are you going to go?
Do you have a place to go?
Don't worry about me.
Just turn yourself in.
Then you'll get a lower sentence.
I can't do that.
Mom. Mom.
Mom.
Mom. Mom.
My gosh, I'm so relieved that the chairman's okay now.
Exactly.
His children wouldn't have been able to live with his death.
Especially Sang Hyuk.
I guess the skies pitied him and let him live...
after seeing Ji Young take such good care of him.
They say, "Even the skies get touched by sincerity."
Yes, Ji Young practically saved him. I mean, she's even pregnant.
- Yes, exactly. - Gosh, seriously.
Ki Sook.
- Young Ran. - Hello.
We were just talking about the chairman.
I'm so relieved that he's okay.
Yes, I know. He met all his kids including his grandson...
after he woke up.
Chairman Shin used to eat so many healthy food,
so I didn't even think he'd pass away.
I thought he'd live until he was 200 years old.
He apparently held Ji Young's hand...
and apologized to her...
for everything he did to her in the past.
He also said he's sorry to all of use.
He gave us a sincere apology.
And I couldn't stop crying...
the moment I heard that.
Why are you crying? Don't cry.
Everything turned out well.
Sang Hyuk became the chairman,
and Ji Young's now the chairman's wife.
Yes, you're right.
Ji Young's the wife of A One Group's chairman.
This is incredible.
- This is unbelievable. - I know!
The chairman's wife.
Exactly.
My skin.
It's back.
Really? That's good.
That dermatologist is famous for being really competent.
Thank you so much. I'm so much better thanks to you.
The organic lotion you gave me is also really great...
for soothing the skin.
That's good.
Thanks to you, I'll be able to go on that blind date again.
I was so sad that I couldn't meet him because Mi Hyun told me...
that he's tall, handsome, and well-built.
But now that my skin's better,
I think I'll be able to meet him this Saturday.
Thank you so much.
Okay, that's good to hear.
I'm sure it'll work out great.
Okay, bye.
Vice chairman Shin.
- What do you need? - Well,
I have something to tell you.
What is it?
Ms. Choi Kyung Shin was the one who ordered me...
to hack Lotieler's server system.
- What? - I'm sorry, sir.
I only did what she told me to do. I'm telling the truth.
What else did you do?
Tell me everything.
She made Seung Mi wire the wrong amount of money,
and she was also behind bribing Mr. Nam.
What?
You jerk.
I'm sorry. Please forgive me.
But I had no choice but to follow her orders.
I only did what I was told.
You're fired.
Sir, please forgive me just this once.
I have a family to take care of.
You not only betrayed the company,
but you also betrayed Kyung Shin.
We don't need a piece of trash like you.
Get out!
Hey, Hyun Joon.
What?
Mr. Park, where's Seung Mi?
- She left to go to the bank. - When?
It's been a while.
Call her and tell her to come back to the office right now.
Okay.
The receiver cannot be reached. You will be directed to voicemail.
Please leave a message after the beep.
- She's not answering. - What?
Ms. Choi.
Did you withdraw the money?
It's here.
Okay, what about our flight ticket?
I booked the tickets. We have to get on the 8pm flight to LA.
- Good job. - Ms. Choi.
Will I really be able to return and take care of my mom?
Of course. Don't worry about that. You have my word.
Okay, I'll trust you.
Sir, please take us to the airport.
Wait. I need to meet someone.
Sir, please take us to the drama producing center in Ilsan.
Ms. Choi, we're short on time.
What if they forbid us from leaving the country?
It's on our way. It won't take too long.
Sir, please hurry.
Seung Mi suddenly disappeared. We can't reach her.
I'm so sorry.
Mr. Hwang confessed everything.
The server attack on Lotieler.
Bribing Mr. Nam.
And wiring the wrong amount of money to the firm in Germany.
She was the one who ordered all that.
Why in the world did she do all those things?
She used to be paranoid that you'll end up taking...
- everything from her. - What?
And that fear ended up growing as time went by.
I warned her so many times.
But she eventually ended up like this because of her greed.
I'm going to file a lawsuit against Kyung Shin...
for embezzlement, malpractice, and illegal hacking.
Why...
isn't Kyung Shin coming?
She can't come.
Why not?
To be honest...
Don't be shocked.
Why do you keep calling me? I said, I didn't want to meet.
I'm...
currently on the run.
I lost everything.
Do you feel better now?
I'm going to go abroad.
I'm not sure if I'll be able to come back.
But...
I wanted to meet you before I left.
I'm sorry.
I didn't know I'd end up like this.
I came from a poor family,
but I got lucky and got married to a rich man.
And as I tried my best not to get kicked out,
I ended up becoming very evil.
I couldn't help but become tenacious.
I didn't want to go back to where I came from.
It was like a fiery pit.
It was horrible.
I was...
very mean to you.
So what?
Are you telling me to understand you?
No.
Don't forgive me.
You can hate me forever.
But...
just know that it was painful...
for me to treat you the way I did.
I just wanted to tell you that before I left.
Are you done now?
Goodbye.
This is the happiest moment of my life.
I told your dad everything about Kyung Shin.
I'm sorry, Dad.
It's all my fault.
Where is she?
I don't know.
Do you think she went abroad?
She probably did.
No wonder why she took everything that was worth selling.
Why isn't the prosecution catching that witch?
We're looking for Ms. Choi Kyung Shin.
Will Ms. Choi Kyung Shin...
please come to the check-in counter right now?
I will repeat the announcement.
We're looking for Ms. Choi Kyung Shin.
Will Ms. Choi Kyung Shin...
please come to the check-in counter right now?
Why are they calling me?
There's no reason for them to call you.
Something's weird.
I think we're forbidden from leaving the country.
(I am also Mother)
- Who is she? - She's my secretary.
She's going to get on the boat with me at Incheon.
Is that money?
He can't be trusted, so take good care of the money.
That's illegal money.
- How about we split it? - What?
Why are you being so stupid? Where do you think you're going?
A murder incident?
What?
