(Episode 11)
Shin Hyun Seo.
Who are you?
This little...
(Chief Kim)
What is it?
- Are you trying to be funny? - I found her.
You told me that way too many times.
She went through an extreme makeover.
She received plastic surgery,
and she's working as a housekeeper at President Min's house.
No wonder it was so hard for us to find her.
Plastic surgery?
- Are you positive? - I am.
I'm going to kill her today.
Get ready to take the bracelet.
Wait. I'll call you back. Hold the plan for a moment.
Plastic surgery?
Jee Eun Han went under the knife...
and became Shin Hyun Seo?
Should I be believing this?
Your swelling is almost gone.
But you still can't go swimming or to a sauna for a while.
- Of course. Thank you. - Sure.

(Kang Chan Ki, Jee Eun Han)
(Kang Chan Ki's Blessing, Kang Chan Ki's Reading List)
Did they delete the articles?
She's the daughter-in-law of a rich family, the wife of Mr. Kang.
How did no one report on their marriage?
- Goodbye. - Thank you.
- Thank you. - Bye.
What is that? Is that for your 100th day?
No, it's our one-month anniversary.
At this rate, every single day of the year will be an anniversary.
- That's true. - What anniversary?
She got this as a one-month anniversary present.
Isn't it pretty? We first met at a baseball park.
Look.
If I want to make great presents,
I should meet someone at a pool, someone who has a great body.
What am I thinking?
Can you order me one with someone performing CPR?
- Are you serious? - Make it as quickly as possible.
I'll pay, so you should order one too.
You can give one to that reporter girl.
Forget it. I don't want to give her a present.
Give it to her and ask her to find Jee Eun Han's resume.
She used to work part-time on the news team.
Maybe she'll know better if you say she's Anchor Kang Chan Ki's wife.
Forget it.
You can have the snow globe and my mountain bike.
I'm not the type who wants... No, I am.
Deal.
Why are you looking for Kang Chan Ki's wife's resume?
I need to check what she looks like.
If you have time, please do a search online too.
If you bring me her information in any way possible,
my mountain bike is yours.
Done.
("Kang Chan Ki's Morning Wide")
Not anyone can enter the newsroom.
You should have made an appointment with Mr. Kang.
Well...
Over here.
Come in.
Is this it?
Aren't you here to give me information?
Information? I'm here to see Mr. Kang.
He's not someone that anyone can walk in and meet.
He's my brother-in-law. Mr. Kang.
Goodness, really? Then I should escort you.
One second.
Mr. Kang, your brother-in-law is here.
- Who? - Your brother-in-law.
Didn't you tell him that you'd be here?
No.
Tell him I already went home.
Treat him to a fancy lunch and send him back home.
Hello?
It looks like he went home.
Already?
He comes to work at 5am.
Excuse me. He told me to treat you to lunch.
Hey!
Have a seat.
This is unnecessary.
It's necessary for me.
I have to do everything...
that Mr. Kang tells me to do even if the sky collapses on me.
Are you two close?
We do the morning news together,
but above all, I respect him the most in the industry.
Now that I've met you, I can see that...
the story about how his wife is beautiful wasn't an exaggeration.
I heard she was absolutely popular...
while she worked part-time in the newsroom.
I just know that Chan Ki really liked her.
I heard she came to work at the newsroom...
to get help in writing her novel. Is that true?
The main character of her novel was a reporter of the political desk.
She interviewed him as she worked part-time as the writer's assistant.
- Did she publish that novel? - No.
She quit everything after she began dating him, then got married.
Figures.
I would quit my job immediately for a guy like Mr. Kang.
Mr. Kang, you're way too ahead of yourself.
I got you.
Bad news. I got...
the infallible Anchor Kang...
fooling around with a part-timer.
Let's get going.
My goodness.
It's as if he's putting up a notice.
"Jee Eun Han is my woman, so don't touch her."
You'll be a success. You're very quick-witted.
Be careful, Ms. Jee.
You're going to be hated by all the women in SBC.
What is this?
Is the great Kang Chan Ki...
going to marry a part-timer or something?
Five minutes until the news.
Anchor Kang, please stand-by.
It's a legend at our newsroom.
A deep and passionate kiss that signaled the beginning...
of making their relationship public...
in front of the staff.
(Hee Young)
- What? - "What", not "Hello"?
Gosh, here you go again. What do you want?
Can you find me a resume?
I need Jee Eun Han's resume,
Mr. Kang's wife who used to work there.
It looks like you have overestimated me.
I don't have the power to get someone's resume for you.
Goodness. You are very arrogant.
Gosh, I already look awful enough from getting no sleep...
with my dry skin and dark circles under my eyes.
Why did he call me with no business?
He keeps on making my face more wrinkly.
You should try using a moisturizer.
What?
People who don't use a lot of makeup...
can use a little bit of moisturizer with whitening ingredients...
to make the dark circles go away.
How do you know that I don't even use lotion?
Your skin's peeling.
In the summer, just basic skin products...
go a long way.
Do you work in...
the beauty industry?
(Jee Soo Han)
Ask Mr. Kang to call me.
I couldn't see him because I don't know his number.
You don't know your brother-in-law's number?
(Seodaemun Police Station)
I can't wait for Chan Ki anymore.
Jee Eun Han...
A mountain bike is at stake, Hee Young.
Did you check social media?
I did earlier.
Jee...
(Jee Eun Han)
(Literary award, Jee Eun Han)
(Literary award ceremony)
(SBC Cultural Foundation TV literary awards)
This Jee Eun Han should be his wife.
I wish they'd posted her photo.
(Anchor Kang Chan Ki)
- Hello? - It's Kang Chan Ki.
- Are you free today? - Come anytime.
I don't operate today, so I'm up for a consultation.
It's not for that.
I called to ask you to appear on my TV show's panel.
The writers can't find anyone appropriate,
and I recommended you.
I'm not experienced enough to be on TV.
Just meet my writer.
If you're busy, we can come over.
Well...
(Grand prize winner Jee Eun Han)
I'd like to look around the TV station.
I'll come over.
- It'll take 30 minutes. - Call me when you get here.
I will.
Yes. I'll find something in person.
Did you do something to upset Ms. Jung?
No, I didn't.
Then what's going on?
I don't know. Maybe she wants to say something.
She went through an extreme makeover.
She received plastic surgery,
and she's working as a housekeeper at President Min's house.
Doesn't that sight look familiar?
She could pass for the same person.
Her back profile.
My throat requires special care. Not anyone can think of...
serving warm water in this heat.
She's much better than someone who brings...
cold water with ice.
This is Mr. Kang's preferred snack.
How do you know that?
Why is he wearing that tie?
He doesn't like silver.
That woman doesn't...
just look like her from the back. Their voices also sound similar.
You don't show your belly to anyone other than to me and your mom.
Why did you show it to her? Did she smell like your mom?
Show me your left hand.
Pardon?
What are you doing?
I want to ask you that. What are you doing here?
You saw me working. I just finished cleaning.
Your face.
Now you're going to...
find fault with my face of all things?
She's definitely not acting.
So she got plastic surgery.
How can she act like that...
unless something's wrong with her head?
Hey.
Would you like to be my right-hand woman?
Report everything Shin Hyun Seo does directly to me.
If you do well,
I could put you in charge of the annex.
What's on your wrist for Ms. Jung to glare at you?
You tend to hate everything about someone you don't like.
She's just being prickly.
Doctor Han Kang Woo?
Yes.
You're really nice-looking.
The "Morning Wide" writer left,
so I'm here instead.
(Lee Hyun Soo)
Do you know Han Hee Young?
I do know a Han Hee Young from elementary school.
It's you.
He bragged about his friend...
being close to the son of one of Korea's top 10 richest people.
No way.
You're the senior that he said he'd recommend?
He said he'd recommend me?
Wait here.
Mr. Kang will be here soon.
There's something I'd like to ask you.
Did Mr. Kang's wife...
The woman in that photo...
That's his wife. Isn't she pretty?
Ms. Lee.
Doctor Han isn't here yet?
He was, but he left.
He left?
He couldn't have been surprised by that.
He fumbled around like he was in shock...
and just left.
No way.
Shin Hyun Seo is Jee Eun Han?
How is that possible?
Kang Woo.
I was going to call you.
I found something on social media. Shin Hyun Seo's...
(Missing person. Jee Eun Han, 33)
What happened?
You redid the face of Kang Chan Ki's wife who had left home?
I don't get it.
Hyun Seo said she needed the surgery to live.
She begged and cried that I operate on her.
Why did one of the richest women in Korea do that?
Mr. Kang is acting strange too.
His wife hasn't contacted him for half a year,
and he looks so composed.
I almost forgot. I called the police,
and it wasn't Mr. Kang who reported her missing. It was Shin Hyun Seo...
I mean, it was Jee Eun Han's brother.
- Her brother? - Yes.
Let's call the police first.
- Should we contact her husband? - No, not her husband.
I don't think President Min's house is a safe place for Hyun Seo.
She's a married woman.
She's not any married woman. Her husband is Kang Chan Ki,
and her mother-in-law is the president of EF Group.
She married into a conglomerate family.
Pull it together, and stay out of this.
(Father)
Did you leave the entrance door open?
What do you mean?
I came to give you some food, and your entrance door was open.
- Hello? - Was there...
something wrong with the door when you were leaving for work?
No. Why?
It's nothing, so don't worry.
Your voice doesn't sound right.
Is something going on?
- Are you coming home late today? - No.
I have something to say, so don't be late.
What is it?
Can't you tell me now?
I have to talk to you face to face.
Okay.
Did he find out something important?
I haven't found out anything yet.
Excuse me.
That...
That pen.
I'm... I'm sorry.
What about this pen?
I feel like I've seen you with that pen behind your ear.
Here you go.
I'll finish cleaning the curtains when you're not here.
Why does that face seem so familiar?
That woman...
Now that I look at her,
she looks like my wife when we were dating.
She's bright but mature.
She's shy...
but honest about her feelings.
You must miss your wife.
If I could go back to those days,
I'd do anything.
(Episode 12)
You're home.
I looked around,
but I don't think you got robbed.
By the way,
did you not kick her out yet?
I don't approve of her.
You should pay her back in another way for saving your life.
I'll take care of it.
You must have affections for her because of your mom.
You have to forget about certain things in life.
Why should I forget about my mom?
How is it bad to remember the person who gave birth to you?
Your mom is not like any other moms, you punk.
- That woman... - She's just a mom to me.
I don't know how she was to you,
but I think of her in good times...
and bad times.
"Just a mom"?
Oh, dear.
Don't you know why you still have so much debt?
If you look at her,
she looks like somebody...
who'll mooch off of you like your mom.
- She'll break your back. - What do you know about that woman?
How can you say such harsh words like it's nothing?
Your mom ruined my life. Don't you see that?
If you don't want to end up like me,
please kick her out of this house.
Even if I don't kick her out, she has to leave.
Even if I want to hold on to her, I can't.
So stop worrying over nothing, and please leave me alone, okay?
You...
Excuse me.
You're a nurse at that clinic, right?
Yes.
I know that woman got plastic surgery here.
What I want to know is...
the relationship between Director Han and her.
I heard those two are dating. Is that true?
- What did you say? - I don't know.
They're not dating.
Hyun Seo has side-effects from the plastic surgery...
and can't remember anything.
Director Han is protecting her until she recovers her memory.
She doesn't remember anything?
She doesn't know how old she is, where she lives,
or who her family is. She doesn't remember a thing.
Tell your client...
to wait until I come.
Move.
Did you follow me?
Then...
she has amnesia?
See?
You should have told me from the beginning.
But now,
you need to be quiet.
If you start talking...
Think about...
what I would have said next. Okay?
All right. Go.
The only reason she would come at the cost of plastic surgeries is...
to get her phone back.
Why isn't she looking for her phone?
What is she doing?
I told you to wait until I call you.
I wanted to give you a bonus for keeping you waiting for so long.
A bonus?
That woman lost her memory.
- What? - She can't remember anything...
post-surgery.
That means she's about to die without knowing...
who's been trying to kill her and why.
Excuse me.
Did someone say they found her?
No.
Bring her in front of me no matter what you do.
That's the most urgent matter in my life.
Tomorrow is the D-day.
Stand-by...
until I call you.
(Missing person. Jee Eun Han, 33)
I had to go grocery shopping.
I'll get changed and cook dinner right away.
Give me just 20 minutes.
It's all done. Come and eat.
Did you make these yourself?
Yes. It looks like I probably had a license to work as a cook.
My hands just moved automatically.
I wanted to make cold jellyfish salad.
But why did I want to pick up abalones and cuttlefish?
I'm sure I lived a life of eating fancy food.
Have some.
Compare it to the one you had at the Chinese place last time,
and tell me which one is better.
What if I don't say this is better?
You'll have to sing.
You'll have to sing a song for having an awful taste.
Did you practice the song your mother used to sing?
- Not yet. - It's a Korean song, right?
No.
She must've been very stylish.
- Is it a pop song, then? - No.
Then what could it be?
Canzone, chanson, yodel,
fado, or enka.
It has to be one of them.
- I don't think so. - It's not?
And this is much better,
so I don't think I have to sing.
You said it's all right, so why did you put down your chopsticks?
Right, you said you had to tell me something face-to-face.
What is it?
Well...
What is it? Why are you taking so much time?
Are you about to confess your love to me in a rush?
I guess not, then.
I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
But I don't think you and I are both ready.
I'll look a little more into this then tell you.
I'm so sorry.
The lawyers said you have a 99-percent chance of winning.
The married couple themselves do not agree to this divorce,
so how can this work?
I got her medical records that show how she took depression pills...
for the entire time that she was married.
And I have a witness who can testify...
that she hasn't been home for over six months.
Above all, you aren't going to pretend to be...
a husband who works and eats well...
after your wife has gone missing.
Why are you so desperate to get us divorced?
If she stays by your side,
I will continue to hate you.
That's all.
She even makes me,
who gave birth to you, despise you.
What on earth do you mean by that?
I'm saying the only way for you, me,
and her to live is...
for you to get a divorce.
So don't say another word, and sign the papers.
The only way...
for the three of us to live is for you to embrace her.
I want to beg you...
one last time.
I might freeze to death. You're wasting electricity.
You'll get billed so much if you keep this on all night.
Who told you to worry about the electricity bill?
Stay cool while you sleep.
He barely ate anything that I cooked.
What's going on?
People come to see you to become more beautiful.
But I came because I must survive.
Getting plastic surgery is my last struggle to stay alive.
If going under the knife was her last struggle to stay alive,
that means she was definitely not happy back then.
Why did she need to get plastic surgery...
to go back home to her husband?
This is a Chinese song.
This must be the song that his mother used to sing.
- Hello? - Who are you?
Why are you answering someone else's phone?
Are you the owner?
Yes.
Where did you find it?
Where did you lose it?
I lost it at President Min's house.
You are the owner.
How should I get this to you?
He couldn't have gone to work already.
Did he go exercise?
(Kang Chan Ki)
You left without seeing me yesterday.
Why are you here so early?
Can you spare me some time?
I'll catch up. You go ahead.
Okay, don't be too long.
Even considering that you're well-known...
and want to stay private,
there's something I just can't get my head around.
What can't you get your head around?
First, what do you think about plastic surgery?
- Plastic surgery? - A woman who had it.
How would you feel if your wife had plastic surgery?
I don't live with a woman who had plastic surgery.
I think this is enough of an answer to your question.
That's not the answer I wanted.
What answer were you expecting?
I hoped that...
you'd say that if someone had plastic surgery,
then she must've had a reason to.
Why should I say that?
Mr. Kang.
Our director's waiting for you. You need to hurry.
Goodwill turns into animosity in an instant.
You showed up out of nowhere to ask such a random question.
I just don't get it.
Can I slip out during lunchtime...
to run a personal errand?
We'll be busy during lunch.
Go right now if you must.
Do you know...
how long it takes to get to Musin Station from here?
If you take a bus then switch to subway,
about 40 minutes?
I need to drop something...
that I found at Minju Gardening that's near the station.
To be safe, let's say I'll be away for two hours.
Okay, go ahead. I'll make up an excuse for you.
Thank you.
The owner has to go south today.
Thank you.
She just went out to return something she found.
She's meeting the person at Minju Gardening near Musin station.
Okay. You can go.
Can you get to Musin Station in 40 minutes?
- I can. - That woman...
went to Minju Gardening near Musin Station.
Okay.
I'll leave now.
Please just disappear.
Are we set up around the gardening center?
We have a van in a security camera blind spot.
I can smell blood on him just by looking at him.
Your team should wait in the car.
Yes, sir.
Come with me.
I just got to the subway station.
Which way do I go?
- Sorry. - It's okay.
- What are you doing? - What do you mean?
I'm supposed to meet someone here.
Are you?
Then I'll leave you to it.
You can't leave.
Let go of me.
The security camera is recording everything.
I even see someone from security coming over here.
- Let go and go on your way. - You tried that one on me before.
- I won't fall for it again. - Is something wrong?
Help me.
He's been following and harassing me.
What's the matter?
- Stop right there. - Wait, sir.
Do you want to become accomplices with that con artist...
who stole a fortune?
- What? - Let go!
Mister!
This train goes to Incheon.
We will leave shortly. The doors are closing.
(Missing person. Jee Eun Han, 33)
(Shin Hyun Seo)
That man.
He knows I'm the woman he's looking for.
What man? You mean...
I barely shook him off just now. I don't know where to go.
I'll text you an address.
My place and President Min's are both dangerous.
- Go to that address, okay? - Okay.
(Jongno-gu Naksan...)
38...
(Kang Woo)
(12-40 Sungkwak-gil, Naksan, Jongno-gu)
Do I have to keep going?
What brings you here?
I've seen her before.
You've seen her before?
You're the housekeeper at President Min's place, right?
A housekeeper?
I don't know what you were thinking to come all the way here,
but you should let my son go.
I'll pay you back in another way for saving his life.
So is it her?
Is the person you fell for...
President Min's housekeeper?
- Where is she? - Answer me.
Did you push me away because of her?
Do you think your father...
would have let her in the house...
when she tried to transform her life by saving yours.
Kang Woo.
(Shin Hyun Seo)
Why didn't you pick up?
I'll take care of myself.
So you shouldn't be involved in my life anymore.
Even if I want to,
I can't anymore.
I understand. Let me go.
I thought I'd have more time,
but I can't delay it any longer.
(Seodaemun Police Station)
Go inside. There's somebody waiting for you.
Somebody's waiting for me?
Aren't you Mr. Han's mother-in-law?
You're the housekeeper. What brings you here?
This can't be.
Are you Dr. Han Kang Woo?
- Are you Jee Soo Han? - Is she...
really...
That's right. As I said, I operated on Eun Han.
What operation?
You said I could see my daughter. What are you saying?
This...
(Missing Person. Jee Eun Han, 33)
This is my face.
Why is Jee Eun Han's name on this?
Chan Ki.
(Missing Person)
(We would like to thank E Xi A for her special appearance.)
(Let Me Introduce Her)
If she has amnesia, how much does she remember?
We can talk about that later.
You should catch the guy who's trying to kill her first.
You'll regret coming back here.
This place is worse than the fiery pit for you.
It's so easy for you.
I feel like I'm stuck in a maze without an exit.
Trust yourself. You are a good person.
Sorry for everything. I wanted to do more for you.
She's not coming back. Don't wait for her.
