(Episode 113)
(Director Lee Eun Ju)
How did you think of killing Park Tae Seob...
and framing it on Suk Joon?
Pardon?
I figured that'd be the best for both of you.
Mr. Ha killed Park Tae Seob...
for my mother-in-law?
But who's Park Tae Seob?
I don't know who he is,
but this means my mother-in-law was involved in a murder case.
I really don't know what to say.
I know how much you loved Eun Ju.
That's why I feel even more betrayed.
Yes, of course. I understand.
If you're here to tell me to give her a second chance,
I won't be able to give you what you want.
No, that's not why I'm here.
But instead of making a decision when you're still very emotional,
I think you should wait and think about it a little more.
So I can forgive her later on?
That's up to you.
You can always get a divorce.
I'm not going to change my mind.
There's nothing that doesn't change in life.
I'm saying this as someone who's already been through a divorce.
I got a divorce because I thought that was the best thing I could do.
But I still ended up regretting it.
By any chance, did Suk Joon ever tell you about his past?
"His past"?
Did anything happen in the past that made him have a hard time?
What are you talking about?
Before he left Korea.
Are you talking about the incident...
that occurred while he was studying for the bar exam?
What was the incident?
I don't know. Why are you even curious?
Never mind. You can go.
I wonder if that incident was Park Tae Seob's death.
Who in the world is Park Tae Seob?
If Mr. Ha also knew him,
maybe he was an employee here.
This is Director Lee Eun Ju.
Bring me the personnel records of all the employees...
that are named Park Tae Seob.
Even those who quit.
(Director Kang Suk Joon)
I'll have the legal team go over the contract...
and call you as soon as they're done.
Thank you. Bye.
I just got a call from Thailand...
saying they wish to open up our store.
They also want us to send us the PR materials.
I think our overseas advertisements are starting to bring results.
That's great news.
By the way, didn't you meet Eun Ju just now?
How does she look?
She seems to be doing a lot better than expected.
But she asked me about your past.
My past?
She should be worrying about her divorce.
Why did she ask about my past?
I'm worried she might be scheming something again.
You got a call from Thailand saying they wish to open up our store?
Yes.
The company is struggling,
but you still managed to sign a new deal.
Great job.
Our sales seem to be increasing, so that's a relief.
But I'm worried because Suk Hwan keeps trying to expand our business.
We need to cut down on our expenses, but he won't listen.
Some of the board members also seem a little worried.
He's not doing well with Eun Ju either.
Yes, I heard.
I'll talk about it with your mother.
I heard about Eun Ju.
Who told you?
Her mother told me.
It's a really big issue. Were you never going to tell me?
It's nothing good, so I didn't want to tell you.
I was going to tell you after we settled things.
What do you plan to do?
What's there to ask?
We should make them get a divorce.
I don't think Eun Ju wants to get a divorce.
You think we should accept her even though she had a miscarriage...
with another man?
Suk Hwan even turned out to have a kid.
Eun Ju is the only person...
who can keep Suk Hwan grounded.
There are tons of other women who can do that.
Are you suggesting that we forgive her?
We all tend to see a bigger fault in others than ourselves.
What's your point?
I'm saying Suk Hwan and Eun Ju...
both did something equally wrong.
Dad really said that?
He wants you to forgive her since you also once made a mistake.
He's unbelievable.
It's because he doesn't even expect anything from me.
I wonder if he would've said the same thing to Suk Joon.
Knowing his personality, he would've thrown a fit.
Don't even dream of forgiving Eun Ju.
Okay.
Do you want to go eat outside, Mom?
"Eat outside"?
I don't feel like eating outside. You might get a divorce soon.
Don't worry. I'm not going to get a divorce.
Should I meet Suk Hwan one more time?
No, forget it. Are you going to beg and ask him to forgive me again?
I'm doing this for you.
Are you going to let them kick you out?
Who says I'll get kicked out?
I told you that I'm not going to get a divorce.
Suk Hwan has already made up his mind.
How are you going to change that?
I have a plan, so don't worry.
It won't be good for them to kick me out.
I'm not going to give up.
Is this a list of all the employees named Park Tae Seob?
Yes, there are three in total including those...
who already quit.
(Personnel Record)
One of them is missing a photo.
He quit 13 years ago.
The file was made a long time ago, so I think the photo fell off.
Okay.
(Name: Park Tae Seob)
(Vice-chairperson's secretary)
"Vice-chairperson's secretary"?
He was my mother-in-law's secretary?
Hello?
I want you to look into something.
One of them is probably dead.
I want you to find out how he died...
and who his family is.
- Can we talk? - Hand in your resignation letter.
You still don't believe me...
even after what I told you about Oh Pil Jeong?
I'm ready to do anything for you,
and I will.
Why are you so eager to support me?
Why are you trying to make me become the chairman?
I'm obviously doing it for you.
You just want to become the chairman's wife.
Is it hard to let go of that desire even in this kind of situation?
You married me because of my background.
You were never interested in me,
but you married me because I was the chairman's son.
Suk Hwan.
Now that I think about it,
your friend wasn't lying when she said...
you were interested in Suk Joon at first.
That's not true!
You can say whatever you want, but I won't believe you.
I just can't.
So please leave.
I don't want to see you, so just get out!
I heard you framed Pil Jeong...
for having accepted a bribe seven years ago.
That's just what she thinks.
I trust Pil Jeong.
Of course you do. You're always on her side.
Can't you be more sincere with Suk Hwan?
I'm very sincere when it comes to your brother.
But he still wants a divorce?
We're not going to get a divorce.
We won't break up that easily.
That's good to hear.
But why did you ask about my past?
I heard you asked Pil Jeong.
Did Suk Hwan tell you something?
"Suk Hwan"?
Forget it if he didn't ask.
I'll soon find out what your relationship was...
with Park Tae Seob.
Did you buy tteokbokki?
- Did you crave this? - Yes.
Here.
It's so delicious.
You're not even going to offer me a bite?
Sorry.
Do you think I should've bought sundae?
The thought of sundae just made me lose my appetite.
It tastes really good...
if you dip sundae in the sauce.
Stop talking about sundae.
Why?
Talking about sundae just ruined my appetite.
You can finish this.
Is this your dad?
Yes.
Isn't he handsome?
You never even got to see him.
I saw his photos.
Min Ho, do you remember a lot about your father?
- No, not really. - I see.
I can't really say this to Min Ho.
But Min Ji, you should stop looking at your dad's photos.
Why?
Your mom is going to marry Mr. Kang.
He won't like it if you keep looking at your dad's photos.
Do you agree, Min Ho?
I think he has a point.
From now on, your dad is Mr. Kang.
Okay?
- Hey. - I'm home.
Welcome home.
Were you guys looking at photos?
Am I not allowed to see photos of my dad anymore?
What? What do you mean?
Grandpa told me to stop looking at my dad's photos...
now that you're going to become my dad.
Why would you tell her that?
I didn't say anything wrong.
You can look at his photos whenever you want.
Are there photos of your dad inside this album?
- Let's look at them together. - Gosh, don't bother.
Just look at them next time.
My goodness, my back.
My goodness.
Okay, let's look at them next time.
Okay.
Did you look into it?
2 of the people are still alive, but 1 person is dead.
Really? How did he die?
He was murdered.
They still don't know who the culprit is.
Did you find his family?
I'm still looking into it.
First, do you want me to send you Park Tae Seob's photo?
Yes. Call me as soon as you find out.
He used to be my mother-in-law's secretary?
Why does he look so familiar?
What did he do to my mother-in-law?
I wonder why Mr. Ha killed him.
What are you thinking about?
I was reminded of my late husband...
after hearing what Suk Joon said earlier.
I also thought of the same thing.
But he's no longer alive.
Forget about the past and just focus on your future.
Forget about it all and just think about the good things in life.
Eun Ju.
Eun Ju!
You really need to stop.
Ms. Oh.
Mr. Kim, you weren't like this.
You were well-mannered and a real gentleman.
You keep harassing her even though she doesn't want to be with you.
It's sad to see that you're no longer the man you used to be.
(Director Lee Eun Ju)
What are you doing in my office?
The vice-chairperson asked us to clean out the office.
What?
You may leave if you're done.
How could you be brazen enough to keep coming to work?
Are you ignoring me and Suk Hwan?
Do you want everyone at work to find about your past...
and get kicked out feeling humiliated?
That will also be humiliating for both you and Suk Hwan.
Is that why you're still here?
I never once...
had feelings for any other man after I married Suk Hwan.
I wanted him to become the successor more than anyone.
That only was to fulfill your desire and greed.
I want you to leave right now.
The next time you come, you'll be here to sign the divorce papers.
Did you hear?
The vice-chairperson had people clean out...
Director Lee's office.
Then she told her not to come starting from tomorrow.
Why?
I don't know why.
But Director Lee must've gotten on the vice-chairperson's bad side.
But still, how could she do that to her daughter-in-law?
Is Mr. Kang Suk Joon here?
He went outside. Is that a parcel for him?
Yes. Please sign here.
Thank you.

(To. Kang Suk Joon)
(PR and Marketing Department, 176, Dogok-ro, Gangnam-gu, Seoul)
I want you to leave right now.
The next time you come, you'll be here to sign the divorce papers.
Is it true that your office got cleared out?
You heard about it as well?
Does Mr. Kim visit you often?
He's like a leech.
I told him to stop coming.
Stop acting like you care. I know you're smiling inside.
Did you think I'd be happy seeing you so miserable?
I only wanted the best for the people around me.
That also includes you.
Stop being so haughty. I'm not getting a divorce.
And I'm going to keep coming to work.
You were cold to me...
when I asked you for help...
after my husband died.
And now, you even told your husband that I'm a liar.
I'm a real fool for worrying about someone like you.
You know nothing, so don't even think of judging us.
Cheol Gyu and I are in love.
He's going to get a divorce.
You really think so?
Everyone at school thinks he's happily married.
Get to your senses. You'll only end up getting hurt.
- Let's go for another round. - Let's go!
Stop being so nosy.
Mind your own business,
and just take good care of your own husband.
- Let's go home. - What do you mean?
- What? - What are you saying?
- Don't talk nonsense. - We're going to keep drinking?
Come on.
- Hey, stop! - My gosh.
Isn't that your husband?
He always shows up at school and asks you for money.
But is that why he needed money?
Let's go.
Yes, I remember.
He's Pil Jeong's husband.
Is Soon Jeong home?
She came home because she wasn't feeling well.
She's probably in her room.
She's still very young. I don't get why she's so weak.
What's with her?
Hey, wake up.
Wake up.
What do you need?
Why are you sleeping so much?
I haven't worked at the pizza restaurant in a while.
So I'm really tired.
Hey, about your brother-in-law...
"Brother-in-law"? Who are you talking about?
You mean my future brother-in-law?
Who do you think? I'm talking about the guy who died.
Park Tae Seob.
What about my brother-in-law?
So it really was him.
Why are you asking me about him all of a sudden?
I just wanted to ask you how he died.
Why do you suddenly want to know?
Are you trying to stop Pil Jeong and Suk Joon from getting married?
Forget it if you don't want to tell me.
Pil Jeong, it's me.
Eun Ju asked you about Tae Seob?
Yes, she asked me how he died.
She might be up to something again,
so be careful.
What can she do? He's no longer alive.
Okay, bye.
- Are you done with your meeting? - Yes.
You got a parcel.
Is it for me?
But I don't know who sent it.
(Director Kang Suk Joon)
(Ha Yeol Do)
What is it?
I think it's my uncle's wallet.
What?
Do you think my uncle sent it to me?
Then why didn't he leave a contact number?
- Look. There's a note. - What?
(Please give this wallet to Vice-chairperson Kim Hae Jeong.)
Why was this wallet sent to me...
if this person wanted it to go to my mom?
I don't know.
Why does this person want you to give...
your uncle's wallet to the vice-chairperson?
Then was she raising him?
The guy who was supposed to send the kid to an orphanage...
wanted the money that Mi Ae got from me.
So he told Mi Ae that he'll take care of her and the baby.
Park Tae Seob used the kid...
to ask Suk Hwan for money.
And Mr. Ha killed Park Tae Seob...
for both Suk Hwan and my mother-in-law.
Now, it all makes sense.
The lawyer is going to bring the divorce papers tomorrow.
She won't get a single penny.
We can't make her leave empty-handed.
"Empty-handed"?
She asked me for my shares and building...
in return for agreeing to raise Min Ho.
She was willing to raise Min Ho.
I would've done the same for her.
Are you still on her side?
She was going to tell me about her past.
You believe her?
Let me tell you something now that it's over.
She knew that Suk Joon was born out of wedlock...
before you guys got married.
What?
Apparently, you told her when you were drunk.
She even did a DNA test to find out if Suk Joon and I were related.
That's how calculative and cunning she is.
She married you after she did her research.
Why didn't you tell me anything?
I found out after you guys got married.
If she refuses to sign the divorce papers tomorrow,
just tell her everything and file for a divorce suit.
(Please give this wallet to Vice-chairperson Kim Hae Jeong.)
Who had my uncle's wallet?
How do you feel, honey?
When you get into a car accident,
the symptoms normally start to show the next day.
You were in a car accident?
Yes, it's nothing to worry about.
How did it happen?
Why do you keep asking?
What matters is that I'm fine.
This is Ha Yeol Do.
Mr. Ha, what brings you to call me?
I need to urgently meet you and tell you something.
(Please give this wallet to Vice-chairperson Kim Hae Jeong.)
Why did you want to see me?
Now that I think about it,
you must've had a hard time...
dealing with your husband coming to school all the time...
to ask you for money after his business went bankrupt.
I heard you also asked my sister.
Why are you suddenly so curious about my husband?
Your husband was broke,
so he probably would've done anything for money.
Is that correct?
I don't know what you're scheming this time,
but don't mess with someone who's no longer alive.
Your happy days with Suk Joon will soon come to an end.
(Mother)
(Mutual Divorce Petition)
We have a meeting soon, so make it quick.
Okay, ma'am.
(Mutual Divorce Petition)
You're the one who caused the divorce,
so you won't be receiving alimony.
The vice-chairperson will let you keep the shares...
and building she gave you.
Will you please excuse us for a moment?
You're leaving with my shares and a building.
So this is a pretty good deal for you.
I'm not getting a divorce.
You can't do anything to change this.
My mom already told me everything you did behind my back.
I should also get a chance to talk.
Cut the nonsense.
Just sign the papers.
You can see for yourself if I'm really talking nonsense.
I told the boys to stay hidden.
Mr. Ha. You're one scary guy.
- I'm impressed. - Thank you, sir.
How did you...
think of killing Park Tae Seob and framing it on Suk Joon?
Pardon?
I figured that'd be the best for both of you.
Do you still want me to sign the divorce papers?
(Mom Has an Affair)
Are you refusing to give up on my company?
You mean "our" company.
Did you forget everything I did to support you?
We have no other choice.
What matters is that her goal is also to make you...
become the chairman.
A lot of our shareholders are greatly in favor...
of your business management method.
You lost your chance while you were...
the acting chairman.
Do you really think I'll let Suk Joon become the chairman?
- Who sent you this? - I don't know.
Why do you think this person sent this to me...
instead of directly sending it to you?
