Who's Ha Ru's dad?
(Episode 19)
Whose son is Ha Ru?
Did you see Ki Tae?
That's right. He came to my office.
Is what he said true?
Did you really tell him that Ha Ru was my son?
Sorry.
I wasn't thinking straight. It just came out.
It just came out? How could that just come out?
I'm really sorry.
I must've lost my mind.
You must've been shocked.
Do you want some water?
Sit down.
- Is Ki Tae Ha Ru's dad? - No.
Then why did you say something so outrageous?
He said he'd get a DNA test.
What?
I don't want to admit it, but Ha Ru has...
Ki Tae's genes.
You said he wasn't Ha Ru's dad.
He only has his genes. That's all.
I want to kill him with my own hands,
so don't call him Ha Ru's dad.
Ha Ru has no dad.
I got artificial insemination and had him by myself.
That was what I told myself until now.
The situation has changed.
What will you do now that Ki Tae knows?
What if he demands a paternity test?
I'll kill him.
What?
I'll kill him and then myself.
Don't even joke about that.
I'm not joking. I mean it.
The moment he confirms that Ha Ru is his son,
he'll be a leech and ruin Ha Ru's life.
I'm angry enough that he ruined my life.
I can't let him ruin Ha Ru's too.
I'm really sorry for dragging you into this.
That lowlife kept insisting that he was his son,
so it just came out.
I was going to leave everything and return to the US,
but that louse ruined everything.
You were planning to go back?
Why would I stay here?
Now that we broke up.
Don't worry. I can just die. Problem solved.
Why do you keep saying things like that?
There's no other solution.
Still, you can't die.
I need to get rid of him.
I'll kill that louse and then myself.
I should've done it sooner.
Hee Ok.
What do you want from me?
What do you want?
I know you don't have an appetite, so try this.
It's delicious.
How's Kwang Nam these days?
Does he still refuse to break up with Hee Ok?
They broke up.
They did?
Yes.
Thank goodness.
They finally came to their senses.
What about the kids?
So Ri and Ha Ru?
Are you having fun watching our family fall apart?
How could you say that?
I can't stop worrying about you.
The show's over, so go home.
Already?
I haven't been here for ten minutes.
I'm not in the mood to chit-chat with you.
Fine.
Regardless, I'm so glad to hear...
that Kwang Nam broke up with Hee Ok.
I guess all you have left is the kids.
- Right? - Are you still here?
I'm leaving. Bye.
I won't see you out.
Don't. Take care of yourself.
Anyway,
I saw someone recently. Park Ki Tae.
- Who? - Park Ki Tae.
That thug who used to chase you like crazy.
So?
Dong Man and I happened to run into him.
Did he say anything about me?
Shockingly, he didn't ask about you.
He asked Dong Man only about Hee Ok.
He used to throw hissy fits like he'd die without you,
but he only barraged him with questions about Hee Ok.
Isn't that weird?
I'm grateful that he forgot all about me.
I guess.
But Ok Hee.
Never mind. Try this. It's good.
Your blood pressure went up.
Give him an IV with nutrients.
He hasn't been eating much lately.
Okay.
You don't look well.
Is something bothering you?
Well...
May I ask you something?
Let's say you're in love with someone.
But your parents are absolutely against it.
What would you do?
Would you listen to your parents?
No.
People these days don't break up because of their parents.
So, you drank here with Yun A all night long and waited for me?
Yes. I thought you'd come home eventually.
I didn't know you'd stay out all night.
I had no idea. So Ri and I waited for Yun A...
at her place all night long.
You were? Why?
To tell her something.
That you're shutting down Twist and going to the US with So Ri,
so she should give up on you?
Don't worry. She says she'll give up on you.
- Yun A said that? - That's right.
Here. She asked me to give it to you.
She says it's a gift.
She says to cancel her flight and rebook it in So Ri's name.
She says she'll get over you and make a new start.
So don't feel bad.
Just be happy with So Ri.
Sorry. To both Yun A and to you.
Plenty of companies want me, so I'll just choose one.
Yun A will get past it too.
The person you have reached...
(Twist)
(Kim Chul Gu)
I gave the plane ticket to Ha Ru.
How do you feel?
Last night...
Anyway, take care of yourself.
I've lost my mind.
Completely.
Whom did you drink with?
Should I pick up some medicine?
Forget it.
I made bean sprout soup. Get up and have some.
I don't want any.
Eat for my sake. I spent all that time cooking.
How is it? Does it taste good?
It tastes bad.
The bean sprouts are undercooked.
It's just crunchy.
They're practically raw.
They're stiff and don't mix. Like you and I.
Brat.
It's my first time making bean sprout soup.
Must you be so honest?
I don't say things I don't mean.
I can't eat this. It's disgusting.
Fine, don't eat.
It's your loss.
Since you prefer honesty, I'll be honest too.
Ha Ru and I are leaving next month.
So... Don't be too hurt.
Don't cry.
Expel Ha Ru and me from your heart.
To Siberia or somewhere harsh.
Are you being excommunicated?
You're pursuing your California dream, so don't give me that.
What California dream?
There's no place like home.
It's not like we want to go.
We might as well be excommunicated.
You keep talking nonsense supposedly to comfort me.
Just leave quietly, okay?
Be gone with the wind.
Forgive me for being mean to you until now.
I know our dream of being besties is out the window,
but let's not be enemies.
Don't hate me too much.
That's up to me.
Who are you to tell me how to feel?
I'm going to hate you.
I'm going to hate you a lot.
Fine.
If that will make you feel better, go right ahead.
You need to be happy too.
Don't just look at the sky as if you lost your balloon.
Okay?
Witch.
You're an evil witch.
I know that I'm an evil witch.
That's why I'm leaving my parents to live my own life.
It's hard, isn't it?
Yes, it is.
Because of you and your dad.
I feel like I'm going to lose my mind.
Sorry.
How long do you plan to stay at Yun A's place?
Your dad said he ended it.
So come home.
At least for Grandma and Grandpa.
Can you forgive Dad?
I can't.
But it's not like you can cut all ties with him.
I'm going to.
I'm going to marry Ha Ru and move to the US.
- So Ri. - I knew you'd be against it,
so I didn't want to tell you until after we left,
but I felt like I'd regret it later.
That's why I'm telling you.
You're going to the US?
Yes.
You'll leave everything behind?
Yes.
I'm really sorry.
Don't be like that.
I know how you two feel,
but be rational.
What will happen to the people...
that you leave behind?
How are we supposed to go on?
Ha Ru and I aren't teenagers.
We're not being impulsive and following fleeting emotions.
We've loved each other for 18 years.
That's why we can't break up.
This isn't a passing fling like Dad's.
What hurts me though...
is you.
I get excited at the thought of my life with Ha Ru,
but I get so worried...
whenever I think about you.
Regardless,
I care more about myself than you.
I'm an evil witch.
So...
please help me.
Please bless our marriage.
I know it's cruel of me to ask you,
but I...
I have no one else to ask.
Please?
I'm begging you.
You're so your dad's daughter.
You really are an evil witch.
Fine.
Have a happy life.
Have a happy life there with Ha Ru.
I'm sorry.
Love?
What's love?
Me too.
Hey, you.
Is it good?
Is it sweet?
What's her problem?
Fine. Stuff your face with the sweetness.
She must be insane.
- Let's go, babe. - Okay.
What...
It may be sweet now,
but give it time.
You'll be throwing up bitter bile soon, you idiots.
(Payment due is 3,557 dollars)
What, 3,557 dollars?
I knew it. I just knew it.
- I'm home. - Honey.
Hey. So? Did you see Ok Hee?
I did.
- What did she say? - She's still ice cold.
I couldn't even bring up borrowing money.
You didn't tell her that we were starting a business?
Of course, not.
How could I bring that up to her with everything going on?
I just gave her the pizza and left.
You should've at least tried. Who knows?
Fine, okay.
Gosh.
Kwang Nam and Hee Ok broke up.
- Really? - That's right.
Goodness. This was how it was going to end anyway.
Did you have to cause all that drama?
Anyway, that's good.
The problem is So Ri and Ha Ru.
I wonder if they'll break up.
Goodness.
Stop worrying about other people's kids.
Look at this.
It's Kyung Jun's credit card bill.
I was right.
It was a total lie that he borrowed them from a friend.
He bought them all himself.
Where did he get all that money?
My point exactly.
- Did he win the lottery? - Give me a break.
He's being suspicious.
We need to keep an eye on him.
Hello.
Are they in their room?
Yes. Go in. They've been waiting for you.
I'll drop off the chairman's briefcase.
Did he finish his IV?
Yes.
Please stay for dinner.
No. It's late. I should go.
Madam said to make sure you stayed for dinner.
Thank you for the thought.
I'll see you next time.
I'll go now.
- Stay for dinner. - I had a late lunch.
I'll eat at home.
- Okay, then. Get home safely. - Thank you.
Kyung Jun?
What are you doing?
I'm taking a walk in my neighborhood.
What about you?
Me? I was thinking about taking a walk too.
I just left home.
I see.
Where do you live?
Me?
I live in Pyeongchang...
Pyeongchang-dong?
Well... I want to live in Pyeongchang,
but I live in Hannam-dong.
I see.
Where do you live?
Me?
I live in Pyeongchang-dong.
So you live in Pyeongchang-dong.
Anyway, when do I get to see you again?
Why? Miss me?
Well... I was just asking.
- What are you doing tomorrow? - Tomorrow?
I'm free tomorrow.
Let's meet then.
I'll call you tomorrow.
Okay. See you tomorrow then.
Okay.
She's completely smitten with me.
So Ri. I think...
I may finally stop having a crush on you.
I finally met someone who likes me.
She is from a rich family too, just like you.
Which means...
I won't be your family's driver...
much longer.
Mom. I finally got myself a rich boy.
I don't have to go here and there treating sick people anymore.
You're happy too, right Mom?
Why does she have to live here?
I'll have to be careful.
Why is she dressed like that if she's taking a walk?
She looks like she's working.
Why are you opposed to Ha Ru?
How long will you make So Ri live...
at her friend's place?
I'm sorry.
What about Ha Ru do you dislike that much?
Why are you so against him?
Tell us.
They love each other so much.
What's the problem?
I think...
Ha Ru was destined to join our family.
Accept it.
You need to stop being stubborn...
and let them get married.
Say something, you punk!
I have no excuse.
He doesn't even come in here anymore.
You don't even want to see me anymore, is that it?
I assume you don't want to see me.
That's why I'm quarantining myself.
I met with So Ri today.
She's leaving for the US with Ha Ru.
Although she knows about me and Hee Ok?
They say they're not a fling like some other people...
and refuse to break up.
I know she's my daughter,
but I couldn't stand her. And I was hurt.
She's self-centered just like her dad.
That brat. That witch.
I cursed her out the entire way home.
But at the same time, I tried putting myself in her shoes.
What would I have done if I were her?
As she says,
she has loved him for 18 long years.
Could I give it up because of my selfish parents?
Could you, if you were her?
When you said you wanted to marry me,
Mother and Father were very against it.
Their future daughter-in-law...
was a poor girl who only finished high school...
and had several little siblings...
that she had to take care of.
But you went against them...
and married me.
I decided back then...
to live for you.
To be devoted to you.
I put my hand to my heart...
and swore to the stars...
that I'd love you forever.
- Honey. - But...
that very man...
had an affair...
with my best friend Hee Ok.
To be honest, I don't know...
if I could love you like I used to.
Ok Hee. I'm really sorry.
I was wrong. I'm sorry.
I won't divorce you.
I can't break up my family...
because of Hee Ok.
Thanks.
Which gets me to my point.
Let's let So Ri and Ha Ru go.
Have you lost your mind?
So Ri is your daughter.
Just as you chose love over your parents,
so will she. So...
No. So Ri and Ha Ru just can't be together.
Why not?
You know.
Didn't you end it?
You said you did.
That's not it.
And we can't let So Ri go.
Then who will take over Dongbang?
Then you stop her.
Do you think...
I want to send away my one and only child?
Darn it. Seriously.
Why does my life keep getting more and more twisted?
I should just die.
Hee Ok. There won't be a single soul...
who will be sad that you're dead.
- Hello? - It's me.
It just doesn't make any sense.
How could Kwang Nam be your son's dad?
What are you trying to do?
I'm just not convinced.
Do I need to convince you? Why?
Hey. Of course, you need to convince me.
Your son may be my son.
I said to stop that.
Who's your son?
That's why I want to get a test.
Work with me, will you?
What?
Work with me so that I can get a DNA test for your son and me.
If you call me about this again,
I'll call the cops on you. Got that?
I'd get a test run right away if I had money.
That darn money.
Gosh. Anyway, where will I sleep tonight?
It's so cold.
My temper has died down so much.
Hey! Darn it!
What is it?
That jerk Ki Tae says...
he'll get a DNA test.
What do I do?
What if he really does get a DNA test?
Look. Hee Ok.
I want to die.
I'm going to die.
Hee Ok.
Beat him to the punch.
What do you mean?
Attack that jerk first...
before he makes his move.
No. Block his move.
How?
What can I do?
Are you out of your mind?
Yes, I am.
So do as I say before I come to my senses.
But keep it a secret from Ok Hee.
I'm out of my mind.
How could I not be?
I'm going crazy every minute of every day.
Yes.
As Kwang Nam says,
this is a preemptive block.
It's self-defense.
Anyway, thanks...
for giving me a son.
Hug me from behind.
Don't think anything of it.
Not all parents and children get along.
I understand. I don't know my son's door code either.
He says to respect his privacy...
and refuses to tell me.
I'll be right back.
He was such a nice young man.
I'm sad to see him go.
- He's moving out? - Yes.
He says he's moving out and going to the US.
What? Ha Ru is going to the US?
Yes. He's going with the young lady who worked here.
Didn't you know?
No. I was against them getting married.
No wonder you're on bad terms.
It's exhausting taking pictures. Aren't you tired?
It's tiring but fun.
I feel so awkward. How are you such a natural?
I'm a social media star.
A fashion influencer.
This is a piece of cake.
Sorry, I didn't realize.
Anyway, this makes it feel real that we're getting married.
Doesn't it?
It does.
We just have to register our marriage now.
Are you sure you're okay not having a wedding?
How many times must I tell you? It's fine.
I mean it.
Let's have a small wedding once we're settled in the US.
That was the plan anyway.
Did you get enough rest? Should we continue?
Okay.
Long time no see.
It's me. Ki Tae.
How have you been?
What are you doing here?
What else? I'm here because I missed you.
How dare you come here?
I have nothing to say to you.
Leave right now.
Don't be so mean. It has been ages.
- Should I call the police? - No.
Don't worry. I'm not here to do anything to you like before.
Then why are you here?
I wanted to see if you were doing well.
Why do you care?
How could I not?
You were my first love, Ok Hee.
Stop talking nonsense and get lost.
Are you happily married to Kwang Nam?
Yes, I am.
So hurry up and leave.
Why are you laughing?
Because I feel sorry for you.
You feel sorry for me?
I saw Hee Ok recently.
Your best friend, Park Hee Ok.
But she said something strange.
What did she say?
You know her son, right? Ha Ru?
She says his dad...
is Kwang Nam.
Your husband, Oh Kwang Nam.
Did you know that?
(Love Twist)
You said to make a preemptive block.
Did you not mean it?
- I was being stupid. - Do you regret it?
Was it fun playing me?
- Hee Ok. - Don't say my name.
It makes me sick.
Ha Ru.
Don't run away. Live here with us.
Why did Hee Ok tell such a lie?
