(Episode 99)
Hello.
This way, please.
The chairman is here.
Hello, Mr. Chairman.
I leave Dongbang in your hands.
Thank you.
Are you prepared for your inauguration?
Nothing too special.
I couldn't sleep last night preparing my farewell speech.
Let's go.
You've prepared a summary regarding the nursing home, right?
Grandfather will be very happy.
The inauguration should be going well, right?
I was worried that Ha Ru would refuse.
Kwang Nam can step down from management...
without worrying now.
I'm sure the late chairman is smiling right now...
since Ha Ru took over the company that he had founded.
I'm sure he is.
I'm so grateful that you love and adore...
my son so much.
I'm glad you know.
Anyway,
I looked into some wedding venues.
I compiled a list...
of hotels and pretty cathedrals.
Cathedrals? No one we know...
attends church at a cathedral.
It was a fantasy of mine...
to get married in a pretty cathedral.
You're not the one getting married.
I know. I just included some on the list, that's all.
Take a look. See if you like any of them.
Okay. Take a look, Mother.
Let's see.
Who is it?
Police.
Is Maeng Ok Hee here?
Why do the police want you?
(Dongbang Amor Fati Care Home)
(CEO Park Ha Ru)
You punk. You said you didn't prepare much.
How could you give a better speech than mine?
I only did as I always do.
Goodness. You've changed so much.
- Ha Ru. - Yes?
Being a chairman...
is something everyone desires,
but it isn't permitted for everyone.
However, I've permitted it for you.
Didn't I permit it?
There you go again, you punk.
Anyway,
this is a very important position.
You're in charge of the present and futures of 1,500 employees...
and countless shareholders.
Always remember the weight on your shoulders.
Yes, sir.
Here. I'm relying on you.
I'll do my best.
Good.
Hello, Mother.
There's a detective at the house right now.
What?
So get over here right now.
Okay. I'll be right there.
Why is a detective here?
How would I know?
A detective came to the house.
Hold on. Was Ki Tae caught? Or...
Anyway, I need to get home.
I'll call you if anything happens,
so you focus on work.
- See you. - Okay.
What's going on?
Hi, So Ri.
How did the inauguration go?
It went well.
Sorry for congratulating you over the phone instead of in person.
It's okay.
But anyway...
Yes?
There's a detective at your house right now.
A detective?
The body of an unidentified man was found...
in the woods in Yongin a few days ago.
We found the DNA of someone else...
on the clothes he was wearing.
And?
You recently reported...
Park Hee Ok's abduction, correct?
That the abductor had demanded ten million dollars in ransom.
Yes, I had reported that.
Your abductor was Park Ki Tae, correct?
Yes, it was.
The DNA found on the clothes of the dead man...
belongs to Park Ki Tae.
What? Then...
Who is the dead man?
We haven't identified him yet,
but since he's a foreigner,
we presume he may be...
an illegal alien living in the country.
Then why is he wearing Park Ki Tae's clothes?
That was why...
I wanted to ask if you had heard from Park Ki Tae since.
No, I have not.
Based on the case notes,
Park Hee Ok, who was held hostage, was released safely.
And you got the money back, so the case was closed.
How did that happen?
We didn't get two of them back.
Two gold bars.
Yes, I'm aware.
What more do you want to know?
Park Ki Tae, someone with seven priors,
didn't get the full ten million dollars.
So it doesn't make sense that he let the hostage go...
and the victims...
don't seem too interested in his arrest,
which made me think there was something more.
That was...
There was another reason for that.
What reason?
Park Ki Tae...
That louse...
The truth is...
Your mother told me.
Park Ki Tae is your biological father?
Of all the...
How could your biological father take your mother hostage...
and demand ransom from his son?
That man...
is not my father.
He is a criminal who raped my mother.
I was the result...
- of that rape. - Sorry?
I followed the culprits and saved my mother...
and got my money back as well.
My mother didn't tell anyone...
that he was my biological father.
Not even to me.
I see.
I only found out through this ordeal...
about that louse being my biological father.
I see.
My mother didn't want the case to blow up any further.
She didn't want her son...
to be branded a criminal's son...
for the rest of his life.
That was why she wasn't aggressive about having him arrested.
She didn't want the world to find out.
That's right. What parent in the world...
would want their child to be branded like that...
for life?
I understand.
Regardless, there was a murder,
and the victim was found wearing Park Ki Tae's clothes.
Thus, he is the prime suspect...
in this investigation.
I know it'll be uncomfortable,
but please be understanding and assist with the investigation.
I will.
- He didn't say anything else? - No.
Why is this happening on the day of your inauguration?
You don't know anything, okay?
Even if by chance Ki Tae is caught and says stupid things,
I'll say it was all me. You don't know anything.
Don't say anything stupid.
I won't.
Ha Ru.
Congratulations on becoming chairman.
Do your job well, okay? I'll see you later.
Okay.
The senior community is growing rapidly.
The keyword in the Korean business world...
will irrefutably be the senior market.
Thus, Dongbang will make the nursing home business...
our core strategic business...
and brand our nursing homes...
as premium nursing homes.
We will expand our high-quality senior care business...
all across the country.
Are you still unable to reach Kyung Jun?
No.
I'll leave the nursing home...
after this month.
You're leaving?
Yes.
But why?
I heard Kyung Jun blackmailed you and So Ri...
and demanded money and the chairman position.
How could I remain here?
I know it's belated, but let me apologize...
on his behalf.
I'm truly sorry.
Do you have a place to go?
No, not yet.
I'll start looking now.
Then just work here.
We need to hire more people since we're expanding the business.
It'll be a great loss for us to lose you,
a core player in our nursing home.
Your duties will grow going forward,
so please stay with us.
Okay, then.
Thank you.
And...
congratulations on becoming chairman.
The body of the illegal alien that Ki Tae killed was found.
You can't get away with committing crimes.
They're considering Ki Tae their prime suspect.
The dead man was a transporter of the gold bars...
and both of them went missing after that day.
So... Anyway...
Should we really not tell the police that Ki Tae...
and Kyung Jun colluded to blackmail us?
What if Ki Tae is arrested and tells them everything?
We'll just look suspicious for no reason.
I'm afraid we'll all be punished for covering up a crime.
I think...
we should tell the truth.
I can't.
Even if I'm punished, I can't.
Ok Hee.
When you think about it, what happened to Hee Ok...
is my fault.
Because...
she got unlucky and saw Ki Tae...
while heading home after bringing me the silverware...
the day before our wedding.
Hee Ok suffered that in my place...
while protecting me.
I owe her...
a debt so big that I could never repay it.
I can't watch her become miserable...
any longer.
Fine. Then let's do as you say.
Thanks for understanding.
Ki Tae is one thing. The problem is Kyung Jun.
That jerk ran away instead of turning himself in.
I know.
It'll be fine if he keeps his mouth shut.
We said we'd bury what he did to us.
He even stepped down as chairman.
So why did he run away?
Do you think he did something else...
that we're not aware of?
Something else?
It doesn't make sense otherwise.
Honey, Ok Hee's here.
- Hey. Sit here. - Hi.
Hi.
Here. Drink this.
You too.
- Did you hear from Kyung Jun? - No.
The police came to our house.
They did? What did they say?
They found the body of the man...
that Ki Tae killed and Kyung Jun buried.
They've put an APB out for Ki Tae and named him the prime suspect.
Once Ki Tae's arrested,
he'll tell them about Kyung Jun.
Please contact him and tell him...
to turn himself in.
We won't tell the police that he blackmailed us.
We can't reach him though.
That's why it's so frustrating for us.
Why did he run away and cut off all contact?
I know. He told us that he'd turn himself in.
We have no idea...
why he changed his mind.
Did Kyung Jun...
commit another crime that we're unaware of?
Another crime?
Yes.
No. He couldn't have.
Honey.
Do you trust Kyung Jun?
Honey.
I'm sure he committed another crime that we're unaware of as she says.
- How could you say that? - Gosh.
We were idiots for trusting him.
Darn it.
If by chance he did,
what do we do?
What will happen to Kyung Jun?
Living on the run is harder than I thought.
Anyway, I want to change my clothes and shoes.
Yes.
They should both be at the restaurant right now.
Yes.
What's going on?
Why are you here?
Won Byeol and I are living here.
Why would you live here without me?
Because I felt sorry for Won Byeol.
He kept whining and asking when Daddy was coming.
I felt too sorry for him, so we moved in here.
So that he can at least receive his grandparents' love.
Why did you run away?
Sorry.
Let's go and turn yourself in.
Sorry, but I can't.
Why not?
Do Hee.
Take good care of Won Byeol.
All I can say to you...
is that I'm sorry.
If you're sorry, turn yourself in now.
Forget me.
Forget me...
and meet a nice guy and start a new life.
Bye.
At least eat before you go.
Are you at least eating?
Of course.
Where are you staying? How are you doing?
I'm fine, so don't worry.
How long will you live on the run?
What are you afraid of?
Sorry.
Don't wait for me.
I'll wait.
Won Byeol and I...
will wait here.
So please come back. Okay?
Yun A.
I wanted to talk to So Ri.
She's out at a meeting.
You can wait if you want. She'll be back soon.
Please drink.
Thank you.
I heard you were moving into your father's home.
I am.
What are your plans going forward?
I don't have any yet.
I'll take my time to think about it.
Yes. Don't rush. Take all the time you need.
Does Saet Byeol know...
she won't be living with her dad?
She does.
She must be very sad.
May I visit her?
It'll be hard for you to come all the way to Gimpo.
I've put my place up for sale.
I'm going to move to Gimpo.
Chul Gu.
I need to live close by to see Saet Byeol as much as I can.
She'll be very lonely as is...
since she'll be away from her dad.
I need to help fill the void.
If you do that, we'll move away.
That's fine.
I'll just move again and follow you.
I'm not following you.
I'm following Saet Byeol.
I'll go anywhere Saet Byeol goes.
Don't worry. I won't do what you're worried about.
I told you.
I'll remain a good uncle...
to Saet Byeol.
That's good enough for me.
Can you really be satisfied with being her uncle?
Even if you are,
what would she think about you?
She's young right now, so she thinks you're an uncle.
But what would she think of you once she gets older?
Saet Byeol is a very smart kid.
She'll figure it out someday.
Then you can tell her.
That I'm her dad, not an uncle.
Can't you tell her that?
That way, she'll fully understand...
why her parents got divorced.
She's only six.
Exactly.
Isn't it better for her to find out...
sooner rather than later?
It's your choice,
and I'll follow whatever you decide.
But that's what I think.
Yun A.
Sorry.
Did I interrupt you?
No. She came to talk to you.
I'll let you two talk.
Okay.
What's wrong?
Nothing.
You wanted to talk to me?
Yes.
I'm moving into my dad's place soon.
I was packing my things in my basement...
and found 50,000 multi-balms.
I thought about what I should do with them.
I'm thinking of donating them.
Donating them?
Yes.
That's a good idea.
In your name.
Why would you do it in my name when you bought them?
I ruined your good image.
You want to call it even with 50,000 multi-balms?
Forget it then.
Don't do it in my name.
Donate them to a good cause in your name.
I won't do it if it isn't in your name.
I want to repay you...
to relieve myself of the guilt at least slightly.
You know I'm not a selfless person.
Okay, fine.
You choose the organization to donate them to.
Okay. Anyway, thanks.
About Saet Byeol...
Do you think I should tell her who her real dad is?
Chul Gu says he'll move to Gimpo...
to see her as much as possible.
I don't know how to explain who he is to her.
Han Byeol...
recognized his dad on his own even though we didn't tell him.
- He did? - Yes.
He said he could tell.
Saet Byeol may not say it,
but I'm sure she wonders who Chul Gu really is.
Unless you cut all ties with him,
she'll become more and more confused.
"Who is this man?"
Just as Han Byeol was.
I see.
Actually, she has been asking about him recently,
so it has been uncomfortable for me.
I can't tell her the truth.
I don't know what to do.
But shouldn't you tell her at some point eventually?
You want me to tell Saet Byeol...
that Chul Gu is her dad?
I know it'll be painful for you,
but it's important to her.
Ha Ru stressed out about it all the time.
He wondered why no one told him about his dad.
That was why he thought he had been abandoned.
Saet Byeol's situation is different.
Yes, it's different.
But Yun A.
Unless you plan to keep it from her forever,
I think it may be better to tell her the truth up front.
As you say, her situation is different from Ha Ru's.
There was a reason to hide it from Ha Ru,
but not Saet Byeol.
Chul Gu genuinely loves you...
and loves Saet Byeol more than anything.
Think hard about what's best for Saet Byeol.
- Han Byeol. - Yes?
I'm moving.
Where to?
To my grandpa's house.
My mom and dad are getting divorced.
My dad...
is marrying someone else that he loves.
That's why I won't live with my dad anymore.
- Saet Byeol. - Yes?
Don't be too sad.
Your dad loves you a great deal.
So don't be too sad that you won't live with him.
I know. He said the same thing.
That he loves me a lot.
We can't live together,
but we can meet anytime I want.
I see.
Then why are you so sad?
Once I move,
I won't be able to see you anymore.
I'm sad.
Aren't you sad?
You're not sad at all...
that we'll be apart?
I am sad.
- But Saet Byeol... - Yes?
We can meet again.
How can we meet again...
when I'm moving far away?
The thing is...
You and I are now...
Kids! What are you two doing?
I was having an important talk with Han Byeol.
An important talk?
Saet Byeol is moving.
Really?
Yes.
Why are you moving?
My mom and dad are getting divorced.
So they are getting divorced.
So? You and I are what?
Never mind.
You and Han Byeol will be brother and sister now.
Your dad is marrying his mom.
That's why you'll have the same dad.
Hey!
What? Was it a secret?
Is that true?
(Star Land Kindergarten)
I didn't get to say bye to Won Byeol.
I should at least see him before I leave.
I said to send Won Byeol out. Why is Han Byeol...
Daddy!
Why are you just leaving?
Didn't you come to see me?
Yes, I did.
Have you been well?
Yes. What about you?
Have you been well?
Yes.
Didn't you miss me?
I did.
What about you?
Me too.
I've missed you.
Daddy.
Even if I live with another dad...
instead of you, you'll still love me, right?
Will you stop loving me now?
Of course, I love you.
Han Byeol.
Yes?
Sorry.
Daddy...
is so sorry.
Don't cry.
Han Byeol.
I'm sorry, Han Byeol.
(Love Twist)
All that's left for us to do is get married.
Are Han Byeol and I brother and sister now...
since we have the same dad?
Saet Byeol. We'll meet again.
Daddy. You can't forget me, okay?
