(Episode 43)
Gosh.
All right.
Chew well before swallowing for Carrot's sake.
Also...
- An egg. - Yes.
- You need lots of protein. - Right.
Eat lots of braised beef and veggies too.
- Eat up. - Okay.
It's like a feast for the full moon.
Not bad.
The rice has a great texture, and it tastes nice too.
I didn't think I'd have an appetite if I got pregnant.
I heard you gained 10kg.
- You do? - That's why my mom gained 40kg.
You fool.
- Mom. - Mother.
Yes. Your mom gained 10kg per kid,
a total of 40kg, and look at me now.
And you tell your wife as if it's something to be proud of?
Mom, it was my way of saying it's tough being pregnant.
Mother, you should eat too.
You can eat all you want.
And you.
Will you act giddy and silly again when you're pregnant?
I wasn't giddy or silly.
What do you call that, then?
To find a father-in-law who hasn't appeared in 25 years,
you turned the whole house upside-down.
Then you took your sister-in-law to Yangju.
As if that wasn't bad enough, in front of your mother-in-law,
you danced like this, saying, "Mother!"
I couldn't believe what I was seeing.
I thought you were feeling depressed.
If I feel depressed,
it would be mostly because of you two.
What did we do?
Don't you know what the matter is?
I'll say this again.
Hyo Jun, you'd better pass this exam.
If you don't, I really will kick you out, okay?
- Yes, I got it. - Mother.
- Carrot can hear you. - My goodness.
You act like that when you care about Carrot?
Finish your meal.
- Okay. - Gosh.
The silly Hyo Sim kept cooking porridge...
because I told her I was ill.
It's a rice meal that I want.
She's so dull and lacks common sense.
Where did she go when the porridge wasn't done yet?
Did you see Hyo Sim?
No, we didn't.
(Wonjumin Realtor)
You're here.
Hello.
This is the gentleman.
It's a pleasure to meet you.
Is this the man you're looking for?
Yes.
It's him.
It's the man...
from the piano academy in a building in my area.
A piano academy?
Would you like me to take you there?
Come in.
Was my father really here?
Yes.
At first, he came by a few times a week.
Later on, he ate and slept here.
I complained because it was a small mall.
He stopped coming by after that.
He didn't even sell the piano.
He left it here and went somewhere.
I can't get rid of what isn't mine.
He still hasn't collected his deposit,
so I let him off for now.
Are you sure it was my father?
Yes, I'm sure.
He was as handsome as a movie star,
so the women at the mall gossiped about him.
Go and ask them. They all know him.
Do you know where he went to?
If I knew, I'd have shut down the piano academy long ago.
Hello?
What? A water leak?
Darn it.
I'm on the first floor. I'll be right up.
Can you wait here a bit?
- Yes. - Okay.
Why won't you say anything?
Whose daughter am I?
Am I your daughter?
Are you my dad? Are you?
I'm right, aren't I?
That's why you took me to kindergarten...
and school when I was young.
When Mom was busy going to hair salons, spas, and shops,
you took me everywhere.
When I got into trouble with the police,
you bailed me out.
At the opening of the egg tart shop.
Is that why you sent flowers and helped move the eggs?
Ms. Tae Hee, how about...
you talk to your mother first?
Why? Did she swear you to secrecy forever?
Ms. Tae Hee.
Are you stupid?
How could you live like this...
for over 20 years because Mom told you to?
Why didn't you tell the truth? Why not blackmail us?
You could've gotten a subsidiary and lived in luxury.
What is this mess?
You can't tell your daughter you're her dad.
Please. Stop it.
Oh, I get it.
You had an even bigger plan.
You wanted to be in-laws with Seojin Group.
Your real goal was to take over a company like Taesan.
What a shame.
The family's a mess right now.
You know what Tae Min's up to, and Grandma will return soon.
What if they were to realize I'm your daughter?
Do you think they'll accept you, me, or Mom?
I used to live on the street, so I don't mind.
But wouldn't that be a disaster for you and Mom?
I have...
nothing to say to you.
Why don't you have anything to say?
I'm asking if I'm your daughter!
Please stop messing with Tae Min.
What?
Stop messing with Tae Min.
I raised him as my own for 40 years.
You did nothing but hold him back so far,
so why now do you act like you care?
I know you found out you're full brothers,
but did the brotherly love spring up just like that?
You're so strange.
Kindhearted Tae Min will do anything for his family,
and I want you to stop using that.
Where's your conscience?
I can't forgive what you did to me and my brother,
Aunt Sook Hyang.
Sending your son to prison to save your own skin wasn't enough,
so now you want to frame me so I'll end up going away too?
If you had gotten your doctorate...
and became a professor in California as you planned,
none of this would've happened.
Who do you think made a mess of Taesan Group?
You're the problem, not me.
You used Uncle Jin Bum, the incompetent chairman...
to embezzle the company money.
And you messed up the company...
which my grandfather and father put blood, sweat, and tears into...
by bribing politicians.
You'll be summoned as a suspect soon, right?
Your days of high-handedness are over now.
Do you think...
you'll get away with everything?
If I get arrested,
you'll end up the same way.
I don't know.
I have only just started working at the company.
I didn't earn anything from it.
It's all about...
where the money ended up,
after all.
You think you already won, right?
But that's not the way the world works.
You never know who smiles at the end...
before the whole thing is over.
I don't think you will just sit back and do nothing.
But that makes two of us.
Park Jin Myung?
He died of cancer.
No.
Director Park Jin Myung is alive.
Just like how my grandmother is alive.
Tae Min will try to cover up of the Daegwallyeong Pass accident,
but I won't just stand by and do nothing.
I need to find out the truth about the day...
that was disguised as an accident.
Did General Manager Kang leave?
Yes.
What did he say?
Tae Ho is tracking down Park Jin Myung.
And he knows that old man didn't...
die of cancer.
Anyway, someone will eventually find him out.
What if that old man...
takes Tae Ho's side?
I will...
try my best to protect...
you and Ms. Tae Hee.
What is Tae Hee doing?
She's just resting in her room.
By the way, Ms. Jang,
Ms. Tae Hee seems to know...
Things turned out this way...
because you didn't handle things well.
Mother, Tae Ho,
and even the brat in that room.
Is there anything you handled right?
I'm sorry, ma'am.
I've been through the whole thing counting on you,
but look what has happened.
My apologies.
Mr. Yeom, I don't think...
we can get away with this easily.
If things go wrong this time...
You will be compensated well for your troubles.
So can you be the one...
to go to jail, Mr. Yeom?
We can't all go down like this.
Tae Min did the same thing without complaining.
What? Do you not want to do it?
You can't do it?
It's not like that.
I'll do as you say.
Instead...
Okay.
Please make Ms. Tae Hee feels better...
so she will start eating.
Stop talking about Tae Hee!
She's not the problem now.
I'm sorry, ma'am.
Ru Bi, stop. Please.
No...
This is it.
(Indangsu)
Ru Bi, are you really going in there?
Please don't do that. I'm scared.
You go home then.
No, but...
Ru Bi!
I'm peeling it in one go.
It's going well.
Who are you?
Are you the loan shark of Indangsu?
Yes, I am.
Take this. All right.
Here. Have some.
I'm not a bad guy.
Don't cry.
That's good.
You're a man. You're not supposed to cry.
Seeing you cry breaks my heart.
Don't say something you don't mean to a little kid.
Darn it.
Hey, do you want to get in trouble?
Will you stay quiet?
Let me cut to the chase.
Ilegal private loans at a rate that exceeds...
the maximum interest rates permitted by law...
don't need to be paid back,
and they may be subject to criminal prosecution.
That's what the law says.
You know that, right?
Knock, knock. Excuse me, young lady.
The world where the law of the jungle prevails...
doesn't always go by the law.
Why doesn't it go by the law?
It is supposed to go by the law.
They evade the law because of people like you.
You are the evil of capitalism.
What did you say?
The evil, you say?
Look who's talking.
You, young lady. Hey.
You're the evil of this competitive society.
Why do you think your dad came here to borrow money?
It was because of you.
He got a cash advance on his credit card...
to pay for your academy.
That's why he ended up here.
When you raise kids, all you need to do is...
send them to school, feed them, clothe them,
and give them some pocket money.
You don't have to spend thousands of dollars on academies.
Parents are struggling to support kids like you.
Your dad's back is breaking from supporting you.
I'm going to be a doctor,
and my parents will be proud of me.
But what about your parents?
Did they raise you to become a loan shark?
My mom didn't spend any money...
except on food while raising me.
But I'm still grateful to my parents,
and I treat them well.
I'm just being sensitive because I have too much work to do.
Once I become a doctor, I'll be nice to my parents.
I know you're lying.
You just use studying as an excuse...
to be disrespectful to your parents.
Still, it is better...
than being a loan shark that preys on poor people.
"Prey on poor people?"
Hey!
Smarty pants like you who do well only in school...
can be a lot more dangerous than me.
They say 25 percent of Harvard Business School graduates...
end up in jail later in life.
For economic offenses. You know that?
I would never push my parents off a cliff like Indangsu.
It's not something that happens only in folk tales.
A lot of parents in Korea are about to fall off a cliff...
because they're having a hard time supporting their kids.
Just like your parents!
Listen.
Hey, you should go ask your parents.
Do they have enough money...
for their retirement after supporting you?
How much money do they have in their bank account?
Go ask them.
You should ask your parents.
My mom has an estate of 330,000m² in the country.
She lives happily there.
That's because...
I didn't do well in school.
My mom could save enough money thanks to me.
I may not look like it, but I'm a good son.
And...
You know what?
You should feel bad for your parents.
He's a father...
of a girl who is the smartest of the entire school.
But he had to come here to bow his head to a man...
who was the dumbest in school asking for money.
What? Why?
Do you have anything to say?
I thought you were a smart girl.
I thought you were the smartest in your school.
Ru Bi...
I thought I told you never to call me again.
Lee Hyo Sim, get over here this second!
Why?
Take your niece and nephew home.
One's crying...
and one's glaring intensely at me.
What?
Why are they...
Unbelievable.
Ru Bi, Pil Lip.
- Auntie... - Lee Hyo Sim,
take these kids home.
Look at how she's glaring at me!
She's terrifying me.
Ru Bi?
Get them out of here.
Hurry on inside!
I get that you were frustrated, but have you lost your mind?
How dare you go there by yourselves?
Auntie,
we're sorry.
What if something bad had happened to you?
Are you going to continue to cause trouble like this?
Hyo Sim, what are you doing here?
What on earth is going on?
And what's up with you two?
What's going on with Ru Bi?
What?
Ru Bi...
must've gone there to speak up for you.
In what way could she speak up for me?
I can't believe she'd be this reckless.
Nothing happened to her, so we're good for now.
Anyway, how did you get into this mess?
You know better than anyone...
how shaky things are at the office.
Why didn't Tae Ho tell me about this?
Mr. Kang isn't to blame.
I made him promise me not to tell you.
Why?
If I had known, you wouldn't have gone to Indangsu.
Forget it.
Were you going to help me out of your pocket again?
Why are you worrying about me...
when you moved out to find independence?
The situation is different.
How is it different?
If you keep at it, it will only suck you right back in.
This time around, it was Hyo Do who helped out.
Hyo Do?
That's right.
So don't worry about me...
and look in on Hyo Do when you can.
He seems to be suffering a lot as of late.
Why?
See for yourself. I don't know the details anyway.
Also, don't you dare...
tell our mother that I'm in this state.
Mr. Kang and I have already talked it over.
I'll be reinstated...
once he wraps everything up with the foundation,
so don't tell our mother about this.
All right.
Speaking of, I hope Mother is well.
Due to my state,
I haven't been able to call her since the memorial service.
What now?
You see,
I've been...
looking for Dad.
What... What?
Ever since Mi Rim blurted it out during the memorial service,
we've been looking for him together.
Hyo Sim, please.
What could I do when Mom wouldn't stop crying?
Anyway,
I was able to track his recent whereabouts.
Really?
Where was he?
At a piano academy in Yangju of Gyeonggi Province.
A piano academy?
Yes.
Don't you find that odd?
Why would he be at a piano academy?
He used to teach ethics...
and was never that friendly with music.
So why was he at a piano academy?
I don't get it at all.
Right, of course.
Just think that you got rid of any bad luck.
Gosh, there's no need to put it that way.
Because of the girl Hyo Jun brought home,
talks about your husband surfaced again.
Now, you've spent days crying and being miserable.
How else would you put it?
You and your choice of words.
Don't tell me you're still crazy about your husband.
No one said that.
What else can I do when he's the children's father?
It's just another rough patch that we have to go through.
Yes, think of it in a positive sense.
You've now gained a lawyer for a daughter-in-law...
who'll soon be giving you a grandchild.
Mr. Park, have you made it your goal to live here?
What about your work at the gym?
Well, a young and handsome man...
was apparently hired as a new instructor.
It's why Mr. Park got the boot.
Ms. Bang, please.
Wait. Is that true?
Well, a lot of my clients...
didn't want to continue their sessions.
Anyway, I had nothing better to do,
so I've been helping Ms. Bang out...
until Ga On gets home.
Ms. Lee, can't you pay me a salary?
As if I have the money to pay you a salary.
The cafe has been a huge success.
Customers came flooding in even on the days you were absent.
Forget it. I'm going to earn all I can...
and spend it on Hyo Jun's wedding and then Hyo Sim's.
Gosh, I was only joking.
By the way, Mr. Park,
can't you have a joint wedding with Hyo Jun...
when he gets married?
- Ms. Bang! - Kkeut Soon!
Unbelievable.
Hello, everyone.
Mr. Hwang, what brings you by again?
Why else? I was craving the red bean porridge again.
We met on our way in.
Gosh, I see.
Right. He's a client at the gym.
Is that so? Welcome.
We haven't opened for business yet,
but please have a seat.
Right.
- Ga On. - Unbelievable.
Why does that old geezer come by every day?
Ms. Bang, not again.
Mr. Park, come have a seat. The red bean porridge will be on me.
Right.
Goodness. Here's your water.
The owner is an absolute beauty.
I get that sometimes.
Actually, quite often.
What will it be? The red bean porridge?
For Ga On, Mr. Park, and me. That will be three.
- Sure. - It'll be on me.
I see. I got it.
Mr. Hwang, thank you. We'll enjoy it.
Kkeut Soon, three bowls of red bean porridge.
Forget it!
I'm too annoyed, and I'm going home.
Kkeut Soon?
Goodness. Mr. Park, what's with Kkeut Soon?
Goodness.
What on earth was that?
Gosh.
What have you been up to?
What... Why aren't you at the cafe?
I was there,
but an annoying situation had me return home.
What got you annoyed?
I had to get away from an annoying customer.
One shouldn't discriminate against customers...
when running a business.
He was someone I just didn't want to serve.
What do you want me to do about it?
Let's...
study English.
I need to master English as soon as possible...
and make my way to my son who's in the US.
I can't stand this place anymore.
Where's the pencil?
You should study on your own today.
Why's that? Did you forget the promise we made?
I'm just not in the mood to tutor anyone today.
Why not?
I feel terrible, that's all.
As if I feel any better.
A weird old geezer keeps coming back to the cafe.
What do you mean by that?
It's like I said.
It was all my doing.
Embezzling from Taesan,
accounting fraud, bribery,
and setting up Ms. Jang's paper companies.
Those were all my doing.
Mr. Yeom.
As you know,
I served Ms. Jang in close proximity...
which allowed me to dig my claws into the group's operations.
In order to win the favor of Chairman Kang and Ms. Jang,
I went through with it all.
Are you hoping I'd believe that?
I've always thought this way,
but you are one loyal subordinate.
I was worried...
that the lifeline I was holding would turn to dust...
if Vice Chairman Kang Jun Bum outshone Chairman Kang.
Being born with nothing...
is how I became susceptible to the idea of losing power.
So for over 40 years, I've been here at Taesan...
How do people put it?
Yes, I've been mooching off the group.
Do you really think I don't know who ordered you...
to make this confession?
I plan to confess to it all...
when questioned by the prosecution.
Fine.
It must be your dream to be incarcerated,
so I'll grant you that wish.
However, it won't only be you behind bars.
You'll have to be prison buddies with everyone...
who was involved.
Let me tell you once again...
that I acted alone.
What do you gain by taking the blame?
Money? Power?
I'm not sure.
What one hopes to gain...
can differ according to the value of life...
that one has believed in.
Gosh, I'm sorry about that.
To hear you talk about the value of life...
took me aback.
I would appreciate it...
if nothing were to happen to Taesan that would shock people.
Then, I'll be on my way.
Yes, Ms. Tae Hee.
Mr. Yeom, what are you up to?
It's good to hear you sounding chipper.
Just like you said,
I got eating, and now I'm out shopping.
Would you like to come here?
Of course, Ms. Tae Hee.
(General Manager Kang Tae Ho)
Ms. Tae Hee.
Mr. Yeom, over here.
Are you all right?
I said I was, didn't I?
You're such a worrywart.
Don't be like that and try these on.
I chose them for you.
No, that's all right. I'm good.
Don't be like that and try these on.
Your daughter chose them for you.
Ms. Tae Hee...
Excuse me. Could he try all of these on?
Sure. Let me help you get settled inside.
Gosh, no. I'm fine.
Try them on, will you?
- Try them on. - But I...
Hurry. This way.
Mr. Yeom, you look incredible!
Do I look all right?
Yes, those were meant for you.
However... Goodness.
You've got quite the pouch, don't you?
Ms. Tae Hee, please don't touch me.
This isn't the place.
I bet it's a beer belly.
You should cut back on the alcohol.
Please stop that. You're embarrassing me.
Please don't do that, Ms. Tae Hee.
Having a belly means I have character.
There's no need to be startled.
I nursed you back to health when you were sick as a boy.
Do you hate it now?
Do you hate it now...
that you know I'm not your birth mother?
How upsetting.
Don't be like that.
They say nurture trumps nature.
Please stop.
You want me to stop?
That's right.
All right. I understand.
I won't do it.
I warmed up some ssanghwa tea.
Drink up and go back to sleep.
Whenever you were sick, that was an instant cure.
Your mom will leave the room.
Honey.
What on earth are you doing?
Now that you're up, you should get back to work.
And do what?
Would you rather throw our lives away?
The son we raised with love for 40 years...
is about to lock us up in prison.
Is Tae Min in bad shape?
How is that more important?
I told you numerous times that we were close to being doomed.
Then let us be doomed.
Honey!
Honey, don't be like this...
and persuade Tae Min for us.
He may have found out that he and Tae Ho are brothers,
but it doesn't erase the life we had.
Talk to him about this.
He's always been fonder of you anyway.
You two have always had a close relationship.
Right?
Don't you feel sorry for him?
Why should we?
We raised him...
and made him Taesan's vice chairman.
Tae Min would've been successful even without our help.
He's so smart and capable.
Just like his father.
You raised him like a father!
Isn't that why you were going to leave everything to him?
If Tae Hee had been a boy,
things would've been different, right?
Why would you mention Tae Hee?
If Tae Hee had had a more ordinary life,
you'd have chosen her husband over Tae Min.
You had no love at all for Tae Min.
Jin Bum.
Honey. Don't be like this.
Let's pay for what we did.
You for stealing from Taesan, me for the Daegwallyeong incident.
That's the right thing to do.
Are you out of your mind?
Where are you going?
- Don't touch me. - Oh, my gosh.
Darn it.
Tae Min.
Father.
So...
It's true that I killed your father.
Please send me to prison.
I'll go to prison.
So don't you suffer anymore.
Be free from the pain.
That's my last wish, Tae Min.
Father.
I killed him.
I killed them both.
So don't say or do anything else.
Just send me to prison.
(Tteokbokki, chicken feet)
Here.
Have another drink, Mr. Yeom.
Aren't we...
drinking a bit too much, Ms. Tae Hee?
Hey.
You can accept a drink with one hand now.
I can't do that.
Why not?
You and I shouldn't be like that anymore.
Fine, then.
Gosh.
Shall we clink glasses?
- Here. Cheers. - Cheers.
Hey.
I told you to drink facing me, without turning to the side.
- It's a habit, you see. - Goodness.
Forget all that. Let's do a love shot.
A love shot.
A love shot?
Yes.
Let's link arms and down the shot.
Dad.
Can you not do that, Ms. Tae Hee?
- It's fun. - Goodness.
You know...
You're so cute, Ms. Tae Hee.
Who do you think I got that from?
I don't know.
Who are you like?
You're adorable.
I wonder if this is a dream.
Hey.
There's something on your hair.
- Hold still. - Wait.
My head's secured.
Did that hurt bad?
It didn't hurt.
It didn't hurt me at all.
It didn't hurt.
Welcome.
Look at you.
Go away if you came to nag.
Let's see your face.
Come on, now.
Come here.
You idiot.
Hyo Sim.
Where's the girlfriend who lives with you?
I don't know.
Lee Hyo Do.
She left. I sent her away.
What for?
Mom said you even got a marriage license.
We weren't a good fit.
So I sent her away.
Why did you register as a couple, then?
How dare you ruin a woman's life?
You've lost your mind.
I didn't do it on purpose!
I'm not that kind of scum.
We registered as a couple because I liked her too.
It meant something.
Then why did you break up?
Because...
she was too different from me.
I thought I'd want to leech off her.
I know I have no future,
so I sent her away in case I'd drag her down.
I liked her a lot, though.
I loved her.
Lee Hyo Do.
Mother. Please take this.
What are you doing?
Mother.
Ru Bi and I talked.
Investing in my golf lessons...
is as good as throwing money away.
Also, I hate golf.
Pil Lip.
You can't say things like that to a mom...
who worked all day long making side dishes.
- Because of you two, I'm... - If it's because of us,
you can stop working at the side dish store too.
Sell that golf club and spend the money...
on our household expenses.
I will find my dream on my own.
I don't believe this.
What will you do if you don't play golf?
What will you do?
Your grades are horrible.
Mother.
I think I'm cut out for a different field.
- A different field? - Yes.
What field is that?
Must you upset me like this?
Just you wait.
I'm waiting for the results.
The results?
Did you take some exam?
Wait and see.
Ru Bi.
We need to talk.
I'm studying.
You can study later.
Will you look at my face?
You can't do something dangerous like that without telling us.
You did something dangerous yourself!
Were you still crying?
You were a deputy manager...
at a big company,
so I thought you'd be okay.
But why did they fire you?
I am okay. I'll be reinstated soon.
Then...
why did you get beaten up?
There are many bad people...
at the company.
But that doesn't mean they can hit others.
What was Aunt Hyo Sim's boyfriend doing?
I didn't want you guys to see this.
I'm sorry.
Why did you take out a private loan?
Well... That's...
Because you wanted to study.
But you didn't have to take out a private loan.
You just sacrificed yourself for your family like in a folk tale.
Ru Bi.
You may not know this,
but there are a lot of parents like me in this country.
I don't care about other parents.
I just don't want my dad to do such a thing.
Your dad is no different from them.
Of course, you're different.
You're our great dad.
Hey, you silly thing.
You're lying through your teeth.
When did you ever think I was a good dad?
You'd always turn on me.
Don't you remember that?
Still,
I always thought you were great.
It's just that I'm not good at keeping my temper.
But that wasn't how I really felt.
I admired you and liked you.
Sometimes you sound old-fashioned,
but you're a good person...
and a grown-up whose footsteps I should follow in.
I'm grateful...
that you feel that way.
Ru Bi.
I'll study on my own...
watching lectures on the Internet during the vacation.
If there's any subject where I don't do well,
I'll sign up for an academy when the new semester begins.
I won't ask you for money you can't afford anymore.
And I'll stop comparing you with Joo Hyun's dad.
I won't be mean to our family on the plea of studying,
and I'll take good care of Pil Lip.
Can you really do that?
Don't laugh at me. You look like a boomer.
Fine.
I'm sorry I'm a boomer.
Please get out of my room now.
I need to study.
All right.
I will.
I'll leave you alone.
Dad!
All right.
That's my girl. You're so sweet.
My Ru Bi.
I always knew you were a girl...
with a warm heart.
All right.
It's all right.
It's been a while.
Yes, it's been a while.
I'm sorry.
I was so busy that I had no time to call you.
I'm sorry.
I was so busy...
that I had no time to answer your call.
I had a lot of family issues to take care of.
I also had a lot of family issues to take care of.
Maybe that's just an excuse.
Are you cheating on me?
No. I'm not cheating on you.
But I've been looking all around for a man.
A man?
Gosh.
It was another grueling day.
Why is it so hard to run a cafe?
Oh, dear. It's killing me.
Mother.
Thank you for your hard work today.
My goodness.
Gosh.
What...
Gosh.
Hey, Hyo Jun! Hurry and come on out!
My gosh.
What?
I told you not to do this.
What do you think you're doing?
Mother came home after working hard at the cafe,
- so I... - Come here.
- Go to your room. - My goodness.
You guys are driving me nuts.
Mi Rim, I told you not to play jokes on me!
Are you playing jokes on your mother-in-law for your baby?
Mi Rim, will you do that again?
My goodness.
My heart just skipped a beat.
Your father?
Yes.
Why all of a sudden?
Mi Rim tried to track down my father once,
and things got crazy in my house.
It was the anniversary of my father's death.
I see.
So...
I thought it wouldn't hurt to try and decided to find him.
And I found the place where he had stayed until recently.
Really? So did you find him?
No.
That's why you seem depressed.
It's not because I failed to find my father exactly.
I feel bad that my mom had to live without him.
I feel bad that Hyo Sung had to support our family at an early age.
I also feel bad that Hyo Jun had to give up on his dream...
and study for the bar exam.
And I feel bad that Hyo Do had to wander through life...
even without knowing his dad's face.
So I've been feeling depressed all day.
What about you?
Tae Min passed out.
I pity him and feel bad for him.
So I've also been feeling depressed all day.
I see.
What are we talking about now?
We're talking about our families.
We used to be busy catching up by sharing our own stories.
Still, we have our own families, so...
I don't feel like I'm alone.
We can't be alone.
You're not alone even when you're alone.
Thank you for listening to the story about my family.
I'm glad...
I can share stories about my family with you.
Who else would want to hear all that?
And who else could I tell stories like that?
It's embarrassing.
Are you embarrassed?
Yes.
I'm embarrassed.
My dad ran away from home,
and my family was heartbroken.
Things have become twisted and messed up because of that.
I'm ashamed of all that.
We've been looking for Dad for over 20 years.
But Dad...
has gone with the wind once again.
I should be the only one you say these things to.
Gosh. No one likes a sob story, right?
It's not that. Even while telling me about him,
you're utterly...
beautiful.
I'm worried someone else will whisk you away.
You and your jokes again.
Come here. Let's hold each other like a pair of deer.
Do deer usually cuddle?
Beats me.
I think there was this song.
Hold on.
It's from a song my parents used to sing to me.
I remember that now.
Really? Don't you mean koala bears?
Is that so?
Koala bears or deer.
I just want to hold you.
Sure. Like koala bears.
Father.
Tae Min.
I still can't believe...
that you did such a thing.
But it's true.
I killed them.
I'm the one who killed them.
So have me locked up in prison.
No, the father I know...
couldn't have done such a thing.
And every time this came up,
you denied it.
It wasn't you, was it?
It wasn't you.
Tell me everything in detail...
about what happened...
that day.
Come on, Father.
At first,
I followed them out with the intention of killing them.
To be exact,
I was going to commit murder-suicide.
I was done being compared to him...
as the incompetent older brother.
So I followed him out that day...
to kill him and take my own life.
Honey, what's with that car?
Isn't that my brother's car?
Why is your brother out here?
But then,
I got scared.
What on earth?
Honey, it's your brother's car. Honey!
Honey, look out.
I crashed into the foot of the mountain...
and lost consciousness.
When I came to...
I saw that your birth father's car had rolled off the cliff...
and was engulfed in flames.
No... Jun Bum!
Jun Bum...
I was so scared...
that I drove off.
Is that true?
Yes, it's true.
That's everything.
Then who...
killed my birth father?
(Live Your Own Life)
I'm glad to have been respected as your father.
So spare yourself the heartache...
and send me to prison.
Tae Ho, I'm somewhere really important.
- Did you find anything? - Not really.
There's nothing here.
Mother, Hyo Sung was fired from Taesan.
- Can't you help him? - In what way can I help him?
Hyo Sim's boyfriend is part of the family that owns Taesan.
Three cheers for Hyo Sim's independence!
Mr. Kang's a decent guy.
He's not like your average conglomerate heir.
Kang Tae Ho, you're killing me.
Hold off on your wedding for now.
Mom!
