(Episode 102)
I'm done making pumpkin cream soup. Do you want to taste...
People who don't know you will think you're strong.
But Hye Won,
you don't seem strong to me. You've just grown numb to pain.
I can see that...
you're just tolerating the pain.
That's why my heart breaks...
every time I see you.
You talked a lot in your sleep.
What did I say?
"No, I can't live..."
"I can't live without Lee Jun Mo."
I can live without you.
What?
But I don't want to live without you.
You're now leading me by the nose.
It's fun to tease you.
I get to laugh a lot more after reuniting with you.
And your future will only be filled with laughter.
All I need is for you to be healthy.
It's a temporary drop in the platelet count.
My immunity dropped because I was tired. I'll be fine.
The doctor said you had to rest.
I know the re-foundation ceremony...
for the Judan Foundation is coming up,
but you need to cut down on work.
I'll do that after the re-foundation ceremony.
You know how good of a mother-in-law...
Director Oh Soo Hyang was to me.
Yes, I know.
That's why I'm sitting on my hands and watching you.
Something smells good.
I made tenderloin steak today.
It's your favorite cut.
But our guests may prefer something else.
Who cares? Your preference is my priority.
You invited them. You should've made what they liked.
What great timing.
They arrived as soon as the steak was finished.
You should probably sell this.
I almost did because Hye Won loved pumpkin cream soup.
I met Jun Mo in college during my language study abroad.
He made this soup for me on Halloween,
and it was so good that I suggested we open a soup place.
If we had opened a soup place then,
we would've been a huge hit by now, right?
You were fired from Vision,
so it wouldn't be a bad idea to start over and open a soup place.
Vision already called me and asked to have me back.
Why didn't you tell me?
I haven't decided yet.
I'm still thinking.
Are you considering returning to Vision?
I'm still thinking.
How much longer do you need?
- Why? - If you have nothing better to do,
come fishing with me.
Attorney Baek, you must've been really lonely while I was gone.
I wasn't lonely. I was bored.
Please return to Vision...
for YJ's sake.
We already received an investment from Vision,
but we'd continuously need to cooperate.
It'd be great for YJ...
if you stayed with Vision.
Don't you think...
you sound too biased for YJ's benefit?
I've been promoted as President Lee's close associate.
Of course, I should do that.
Listen to this girl. She's so blunt with her ambition.
Attorney Choi is a talent anyone will want to work with.
I don't want to agree with that,
but I do.
Attorney Choi was smart and diligent,
so she was wanted by many.
Didn't you say you wanted to quit YJ...
and become a civil rights lawyer for teenagers?
I decided to postpone that because of this situation.
I need to save up lots of money...
to help my troublemaking brother, Choi Pil Seo, make a living...
once he gets released.
Choi Pil Seo should be grateful that he had such a kind sister.
And right. Here's the thing.
I recently heard a dead body of a young woman was found...
by the Han River, so I went to check just in case.
But it wasn't Bae Do Eun.
It has been two weeks, but we have no idea where she is,
and the investigation has come to a halt.
Could she have...
stowed away already?
She isn't a girl who'd give up 50 million dollars and leave.
I know she's hiding somewhere...
until this uproar becomes quiet.
Where could Bae Do Eun be hiding?
The police searched through just about everywhere.
Where could she have gone...
if she didn't disappear like smoke?
We searched through Hye Won's home, but she wasn't there either.
Her stepfather and Bae Do Eun are mortal enemies.
She knew he'd report her, so she wouldn't go there.
And the police would often come by for a search.
Who ate this?
Was someone here?
Hey.
Why did you buy so much grocery? It's just the two of us.
Things were on sale, so I picked up a few things.
Anyway, was someone here?
Like who?
I came back after work...
and saw that empty snack bag.
And the kitchen sink was filled with dirty dishes, too.
I ate that snack,
and I was too tired to wash the dishes.
You never eat snacks.
I didn't have an appetite, so I took some of yours.
My gosh.
Wait.
Why did you buy meat to make both bulgogi and braised beef?
Stop meddling with this.
The meat was on sale, so I bought some in advance.
Aren't you spending too much on groceries lately?
And the side dishes are running out quickly, too.
I packed some and gave them to San Deul.
You've done well.
I'll wash my hands and come. Can you make something? I'm hungry.
Goodness.
Hey.
Why are you standing there? I thought you were hungry.
- I made you something. - Wait.
I heard someone's footsteps.
I went to the bathroom.
You just came out from the kitchen.
I was going to go, then I turned around.
Wait,
have you been hiding Hye Ji?
Are you crazy?
You've been weird lately.
- How so? - You always go around...
turning lights off to save on our electricity bill,
but you kept everything on before you went to get groceries.
And you never snack, but you just had some, too.
You were always quick to wash the dishes,
but you left everything piled up in the sink.
On top of that, you got so much food for just the two of us.
You're making me have reasonable doubts.
It's not reasonable at all.
And I don't want to be reasonable.
What are you talking about?
What do you want to know?
Hye Ji would be sentenced to death if she got caught.
Do you think I can be reasonable right now?
Do you think I want to go on with this life?
I'm about to go crazy right now.
Don't get suspicious of me.
Why did you borrow money from San Deul?
How did you know?
I asked him to keep it a secret,
and he already told you?
That's not what's important right now.
Did you borrow it to give it to Hye Ji?
How can I get in touch with her?
I don't even know if she's dead or alive.
You better tell me now. Why did you borrow that much money?
I gambled a few times.
What?
You suffered so much to quit gambling!
How can you get your hands on cards again?
I won't go back again. Don't worry.
I lost everything and only felt awful.
I'm sorry.
If I ever get my hands on cards again,
you can cut my hands off.
I made you something. You can eat it and clean up.
My goodness. I have a headache.
Hey, I have to go out.
Where are you going?
The store manager texted me...
and asked me to come to the store.
The night shift staff...
had a family emergency and went home,
so she asked me to come to the warehouse and clean up.
You come and go as you're told.
The manager keeps making you cover shifts...
because you're such a pushover.
I mean, we're still their in-laws.
Don't you think she's too much?
She shouldn't take you for granted.
The problem wasn't that she took me for granted.
If I get called this late, she pays me twice as much, too.
I've been making money by myself lately.
I'll have to work hard to buy a piece of land...
for us to farm somewhere out of the city.
I'm sorry. I won't gamble again.
I'll be late. You should go to sleep first.
My gosh. He was unnecessarily quick-witted.
I would've put him to sleep if I had sleeping pills.
You brat.
That hurts. Why did you hit me?
"Sleeping pills?"
Do you like to hurt people for fun?
Don't you feel guilty?
Giving him some sleeping pills won't hurt him.
I should just kill myself.
I should kill myself for not raising you properly.
I'm the sinner for birthing a girl who failed to become human.
"Failed to become human?"
That's really offensive.
How can you say you're human?
How can you be so brazen?
You didn't even flinch after hurting people...
and even stabbed your own sister. How can you be human?
I gave her my liver in return. She's living in prosperity now.
She acts all high and mighty like a saint,
but that annoying girl always makes sure she benefits.
All I want to do is destroy her.
I'll wait and see how long her prosperity will last.
What else are you going to do?
If you lay a hand on her,
I'll kill you and kill myself.
I was as good as dead now. How can I lurk around her?
Anyway, where did Bae Jang Gun go?
He suddenly had to work the night shift.
He ran out without eating.
Go and eat the meal.
It's my favorite, bulgogi.
Wait, Bae Jang Gun...
didn't even eat on his way to work the night shift?
Hey, why? What's wrong?
My goodness. What?
Honey.
Sir, the window is open.
What?
Not only are you ruining Do Eun,
but you're also putting Hye Won in danger.
She wasn't hiding here.
Why is the storage window open?
Because it smelled bad.
It didn't smell.
Then, the room must've been ventilated.
I had opened it a while ago.
I understand you wish to hide her, although she's a heinous criminal...
because she's your daughter.
I have a daughter myself.
But Bae Do Eun is a murderer.
She must be punished.
How can she live her life if she roams about freely...
after committing crimes?
Detective, I didn't hide her.
I mean it.
Please consider the bereaved families of the victims...
and help us arrest her.
- Let's go. - Yes, sir.
Will you be like this until the end?
Do you have evidence that I'm harboring her?
Fine. I knew Hye Ji should be arrested,
but you weren't even the police. Do you have to do this?
Do you have any idea how heartbreaking this is for me?
If you're my husband, why can't you just stay quiet?
Did you have to go out and make this big scene?
She couldn't even eat some bulgogi before she left.
I didn't get to say goodbye to her.
I'll probably never see her again...
until the day I die.
That's red ginseng tea.
It helps boost the immunity level,
so our family always has this because of Chairman Yoon.
Oh, my. I just called us family.
I take that back.
If we live under the same roof, we're all a family.
Try some. It'll make you feel great.
Hye Won has been drinking this often, too.
Thank you.
Hey, you're here, Mr. Lee.
Gosh, Mr. Lee.
You're quite stylish today.
But I guess you were usually stylish.
I took extra care today.
I wanted Yong Ki's friends to like me.
Yes, Yong Ki is thrilled right now.
He has been excited...
since last night because you agreed to come...
to his kindergarten as a guest English teacher.
I'm grateful that Yong Ki likes me so much.
Anyway, are you not going to marry Hye Won?
Well... All in good time. I'll take it slow.
Is it because of me?
I couldn't deny that, sir.
Well, if you're a friend's son,
you can be my son, too.
Am I getting too ambitious?
It's not a bad idea...
to turn your daughter-in-law's boyfriend into your son.
Am I the only one who finds this conversation uncomfortable?
I wasn't saying I wanted him as my son.
I'm saying he can feel free to live with Hye Won.
He's giving you his permission...
because he has found his peace.
You couldn't have sat here if he was anything like before.
Good grief. You didn't have to ruin this.
That's her thing.
Goodness. Stay quiet if you have no idea.
I have to ruin things and rub them in his face...
to make him angry and stay energized.
Sure, Soo Jung. I understand how considerate you are,
so please stop glaring.
You and Hye Won can just keep this relationship easy.
You don't have to marry her.
It may be easier for Hye Won,
but that may not be the case for Mr. Chase.
Did you enjoy your crazy marriage?
I hated every moment of it and concluded...
humans were meant to live alone.
It's easy and simple.
It depends on who you marry and how you live your life.
Women become wicked like you when they aren't loved.
Like me?
Soo Jung, you're the one who always says mean things.
You should see yourself with an objective perspective.
Well, I have a behavior issue,
and you have an issue with filtering your words.
Wouldn't you say you were wicked, too?
My gosh. My strategy today is to stay far away from you.
I'm going to work, Yi Chul.
Yi Ra.
You should end your depressing lifestyle...
and find someone new to remarry.
No, thank you.
- Bye, Yi Chul. - Gosh.
I have to be somewhere, too. I need to get ready.
All right.
Do you plan to return to Vision?
I'm still thinking.
If you're still thinking, that must mean...
you do not wish to return. Why not?
Mr. Chairman.
While I was briefly locked up in prison,
I began to think about the things I couldn't before.
The people I met there were...
all criminals, but they all had a painful story to tell.
I had something to learn from everyone,
even those who didn't graduate elementary school.
Then, I came to a realization as I learned to play go...
from a death row inmate.
What? What was it?
Go stones either die or live on the board.
When I was out of moves to play,
I realized I must look at the board from a distance.
Just as how go players looked back on their games,
I also looked back on my life every single day.
Since childhood, I have always lived in financial difficulty.
So, I understand the value of money very well.
I've made as much as I wanted to,
and at times, I even decided to take unjust benefit instead of a loss.
That was why you were known as the corporate hunter,
the cold-hearted expert of acquisition and merger.
I didn't care about such names before,
but recently, I slowly became concerned.
The turning point of your life doesn't only come with glory.
People say it also comes in the toughest moment of your life.
If a smart man like you also came with a great character,
you could even be the president of a huge corporation...
and take charge of many people's livelihoods.
Chase!
Hey, Yong Ki.
- A fist bump. - A fist bump.
When did you learn to fist bump?
Chase taught me last time.
He said comrades say hi like this.
Do you know what comrades are?
People who are on the same side.
You're right.
Yes, Chase will always be on your side, Yong Ki.
Of course.
A boy needs his dad.
People say sons mature as they watch their fathers grow old.
I was an awful father to my son,
but you'd make a great dad.
Mr. Chairman, you're a great-grandfather.
Please live a long life...
and stay with Yong Ki for a long time.
I don't know. Shall I?
Where's Mommy, Yong Ki?
She's been on the phone in her room for a long time.
No, I have to be there myself.
It wasn't easy to have Artist Taiji Tomomi.
The late Director Oh was close to that artist, too.
Yes.
One moment.
The artist is coming to the exhibition in Jeju,
so I have to say hello myself.
I also need to ask for a video for our re-foundation ceremony.
Yes.
No, you don't have to pick me up. I'll be at the hotel in Jeju.
Okay, thank you.
Do you have to go on that business trip to Jeju?
Can't you see?
I can't even attend parent's day at Yong Ki's kindergarten.
You don't look so well. You look like you'll collapse soon.
You're always worrying about me.
Because you always make me worry.
I'll go to the hospital early, so my condition will return soon...
after I receive a platelet transfusion.
Why does that matter? You'll go out and work again.
I don't do anything difficult.
All I have to do is meet Taiji Tomomi, eat dinner,
and talk about art.
Then, I'll go back to the hotel, sit at the cafe by the sea,
and rest in the room.
Next morning, I'll go to the exhibition,
buy lunch for the staff of the Judan Foundation for Arts,
get on the flight in the afternoon, and come back.
I won't do anything difficult.
My gosh. I can never win against you.
You look gorgeous today.
I should match the color of your tie...
with Yong Ki's shirt.
That means we'll be in matching outfits,
so I'll take lots of pictures after kindergarten ends.
Please do that.
- And send them to me. - Sure.
Yong Ki and I are going to the baseball park...
after he's done.
He already told me.
He's really excited because this is his first time.
I'll keep him safe with me,
so don't worry about him, and go do your business.
Is it because I know that you aren't supposed to overwork?
Why do I feel so anxious?
Don't be worried ahead of time.
Gosh.
Are you that nervous?
I took two calming pills this morning.
You said you'd practice at home. Did you really?
My dad isn't even here.
Why are you so nervous already?
I practiced a lot.
As you said, I practiced straightening my shoulders,
flexing my core muscles, and speaking loudly.
But my mind is going blank...
as his visit is near.
You can do this.
- Keep it up! - Keep it up!
- You're here, Dad. - Hey.
Hello, sir.
Are you Eun Yu's boyfriend?
Yes, sir. I am Eun Yu's BF.
You can just say you're her boyfriend.
Why do young people these days always shorten everything?
- Stop finding such petty fault. - It's okay.
I will rectify myself, sir!
Why do you talk like that?
You should be more natural.
Why are you sitting over there?
Sit next to me.
Sit down.
Yes, sir.
I wanted to meet you at your restaurant...
for a reason.
Please tell me.
Don't be so nervous. You can relax.
May I relax, sir?
You can judge a person's character by the way they work.
I thought...
seeing your workplace would show me who you really were.
You are the owner, right?
Yes, sir. I am the owner.
It looks like you can make a living.
You two can marry.
Dad.
What's wrong? You don't want to?
It's not that.
We haven't discussed marriage yet.
If you don't want to marry her, stop dating her.
Why do you get to choose what to do with my life?
I get to choose for you because you're my daughter.
Sir, that is wrong.
What about you?
When a man and a woman date, it's only natural that they marry.
Is it right for you to just date her...
and not marry her?
I was not saying I wouldn't marry her.
I meant that the two of us never had a chance to discuss it.
Dad, let me be frank with you.
I never want to marry.
You never want to marry? What do you mean, Eun Yu?
I want to marry.
One of my goals in life is to marry,
have lots of kids, and become a good father.
I'm going to do it.
How can you say that?
Exactly. People should marry and make a family.
I really don't want to marry anyone.
And I don't plan on having kids.
Then, what about me?
I plan on marrying.
He says he plans on marrying,
so you can change your mind.
Sir, you have an odd daughter.
She likes me, so why won't she marry me?
You're right. She seems a little weird.
San Deul.
Why are you standing there?
Hey.
What?
It's you, Lee Min Sook!
Wait, Jang Hyun.
You're Jang Hyun, right? Lee Jang Hyun!
Hey, it's been so long.
You still look just as you did when we were kids.
You look the same, too.
I could still recognize you, although we ran into each other...
after 40-something years.
Aunt Min Sook, do you know Eun Yu's father?
Your girlfriend is Jang Hyun's daughter?
How do you know my dad?
We went to elementary school together.
We were really close.
You came to see...
if San Deul was good enough to be your girl's boyfriend, right?
I wanted to see what he was like.
So? How many points did it get?
I'll have to get to know him and find out more,
but for now, 70 points.
Just 70 points?
Why? What do you not like about him?
It's out of 100,
and he loses 30 points for not handling my girl too well.
You must know that your daughter is a wild one.
Of course I do.
She's my daughter, so show her a little more love.
Yes, I'll show her my favor because she's your daughter.
They like each other, so be nice to San Deul, too.
I'm not saying this just because he's my nephew.
She really won't find a guy like him anywhere else.
He's good-looking.
Right?
(Hankang Medical Center)
Lee Hye Won.
Did you think it was all over?
I'd get sentenced to death anyway once I got caught.
I'm not going down alone.
Let's just die together.
(The Two Sisters)
Did you think you could have...
the 50 million dollars by abducting me?
I'll kill you!
You should take this empty position.
Did I get on your nerves again?
I truly hope Hye Ji will look back on herself and repent.
- I'm sorry. - I'm Lee Hye Won,
the president of YJ, a prominent group.
