(Episode 21)
Were you already aware of Suk Joon's interview?
Did you plan this together?
He really is my son. What's there to plan?
We can't keep it a secret forever.
I figured it'd be a good idea to tell people who he is...
by mentioning his performance, so I just let him do so.
What about Suk Hwan?
He did the interview because of the daycare center.
But Suk Joon told them that it was his idea.
What will people think of Suk Hwan?
They'll think they cooperated since they're brothers.
Don't worry.
Suk Hwan only ended up taking credit.
Suk Joon is the one who actually benefitted from this.
Will you stop making them compete with each other?
You're only making them grow further apart.
How can they be the same when they have different mothers?
You brought this upon yourself.
Sir, may I borrow your cell phone?
I need to make an urgent call, but my battery is out.
Sure.
Can you unlock your cell phone?
Here.
The opponent won't answer my call.
Thank you for this.
Is there any progress?
Yes, I know a guy who used to work in the Intelligence Team.
He's printing out a list of all the Kim Bok Soons...
who lived in Guro-gu back then.
When can you find out whether she's still alive or not?
He needs to compare every single person.
So he told me it'll take some time.
Report to me as soon as you check.
Yes, sir.
If Kim Bok Soon really turns out to be alive,
don't ever let my wife and kids find out.
Okay, sir.
Mr. Ha, how much have you found out?
I hired a guy to look into it,
but it must be difficult...
since he doesn't know her social security number.
He's checking everyone who has the same name...
and is of a similar age.
Do everything you need to do...
to keep a tail on Mr. Kim and Mr. Hwang.
We must be the first ones to find out about Kim Bok Soon.
Yes, ma'am.
Dad's worried about Suk Joon while he's trying to find...
about Kim Bok Soon, isn't he?
Mr. Ha, you may leave.
Okay, ma'am.
Watch what you say...
about Kim Bok Soon and Suk Joon around Mr. Ha.
If he finds out,
he might use it as our weakness just like Park Tae Seob.
Okay.
We're done fixing your car.
- How much is it? - Here's the receipt.
- This is a lot. - That's just how much it costs.
Okay.
- I'll be right back. - Okay.
Wait a minute.
I shouldn't be the one paying for this.
I deleted her number.
If I go to the school, they'll ask me why I came.
How am I going to make her pay for this?
Did you check the items headed to China?
Yes. 1,000 boxes.
Don't you need to check again?
Do you not trust me?
That's not what I mean.
But you might want to double-check since it's headed to China.
I checked.
Okay.
Then I might be able to get off work early today.
- Hey, big sis. - Hey, Soon Jeong.
- When do you get off work? - I just left the school.
I finish work early today. Should we go home together?
You should come to my workplace...
since it's on your way home.
Let's buy chicken for the kids.
Okay, bye.
- Are you close with your sister? - Yes.
Do you have any siblings?
I have an older sister.
By any chance, does your sister work at LX?
Yes.
Did the director hire you...
because of your sister?
Kind of, but not exactly.
My sister isn't interested in him.
You never know.
What matters is that he likes her.
Is that how women work?
He's from a good background.
You guys can go home if you're done.
Take a copy of our company magazine.
You guys should take a copy of our company magazine as well.
(The Chairman's Second Son Comes up With Idea for Daycare Center)
See? Who would reject a guy like him?
Nice. She came here herself.
It's nice to meet you.
I don't feel the same way.
Here.
(Receipt: 500.84 dollars)
It's how much it cost me to fix my car.
Why are you showing me this?
You did it.
Stop acting like you don't know anything.
So it looks like you admit that you're guilty.
I got fired from the restaurant and car wash.
So I'm jobless right now.
Stop lying to me. I know you got a job.
You got a job as a PE teacher.
How did you know that?
How did you know I got hired as a PE teacher?
Well...
Are you a stalker?
Have you been following me around?
Have you gone nuts? Why would I do that?
Then how did you find out?
Well...
We met at the school that day.
You thought I cleaned there and ignored me.
I made a wild guess because someone told me about...
the PE teacher interview that day.
But it's weird that you know I got the job.
Well...
I figured you'd get the job when you brought out the garbage.
You were as strong as a weightlifter.
Anyway, you got the job, so I want you to pay for this.
I'll pay you 100 dollars every month for 5 months.
I'm busy, so come to the school if you want your money.
Hey, wait.
You think I won't go? I'll go and collect every penny.
- Is it yummy? - Yes.
I want to eat chicken every day.
I should open up a chicken restaurant.
Then I'll go eat there every day.
You'd better pay.
You must be tired since you even have to coach...
the track and field team.
To be honest, it's a bit too much.
Just take it easy.
You're not a professional coach, so they won't expect much.
If they don't win a prize this year,
the school is going to get rid of the team.
Why would they do that to you? You're just a short-term teacher.
But the team might win a prize,
so don't worry too much.
Okay.
Mom, can I sign up for another science lecture?
You want to go to an academy for science as well?
Those who want to enter the olympiad all take the lecture.
You're even going to enter the science olympiad?
Yes.
Okay, go ahead and apply for it if you think it's necessary.
It's going to cost a bit more because it's an intensive class.
I'll take care of it.
You can barely afford to pay for his current classes.
Don't worry.
Remember all those women you met in the past?
I wonder how they're doing.
You used to be really popular. You always had women around you.
What's your point?
Are you still seeing any of them?
Stop talking nonsense.
I only met them through work.
It's not what you think.
Then how are you going to explain Suk Joon?
You should at least think before you lie.
That's enough.
Don't you miss Suk Joon's mother?
I said that's enough!
Instead, I also have a condition.
If the track and field team fails to win any prizes this year,
I'm going to get rid of the team.
And of course, I plan to hold you responsible.
What am I going to do with the track and field team?
Hello? Uncle?
- Are you busy? - No.
Why do you ask?
A date sounds nice.
You're even going to pick me up? It's already a perfect date.
Then I'll see you at 12 p.m. Bye.
Hi.
Aren't you getting in?
You can go first. I'll just take the stairs.
Oh, okay.
The guy she's seeing is going to come to the office?
Oh, my gosh.
Get in the car.
What?
He's the so-called perfect guy?
But he's so old.
Eun Ju must have a peculiar taste in men.
My goodness.
What's with the expensive food? You have a favor to ask, don't you?
- Yes. - What is it?
It's about Yu Kyung.
She skips her classes and wanders around by herself.
Really?
She won't even listen to me.
You used to be a teacher, so why don't you talk to her?
She's probably having a hard time adjusting to the new environment.
Tomorrow is the weekend.
So I'll go shopping with her and talk to her then.
Okay, thanks.
How are things going with the director who likes you?
He's not my type.
I hope you meet someone nice.
I do like someone though.
Really? Let me meet this guy.
That's going to take some time.
- Good luck. - Thank you.
One minute, they're serious,
and the next minute, they're laughing.
My goodness, look at her.
You guys can go without me.
Okay.
Gosh, that hurts!
Mom.
Follow me outside.
No, wait.
Did you follow Ms. Lee?
No, I came to meet someone.
You were sitting alone.
I want to know who she's dating.
You're pathetic.
But seriously, isn't she unbelievable?
Did you see him, Mom? He stands no chance against me.
Who cares if she dates a younger guy...
or an older guy?
Eun Ju deserves better.
You darn punk! You fool!
My gosh, wait.
No, stop.
- Mom. - Yes?
- I heard the food here is great. - Oh, really?
I'm surprised to see you here.
Ms. Lee, you must be here to eat.
Yes. I guess I'll leave you guys to enjoy your meal.
Okay.
Let's go.
Look at them. They don't look good together.
You darn punk.
Mom, please. Will you stop?
I bet you thought I'd never come.
Shouldn't you be busy with work?
I took the day off so I could get my money.
Give me the money.
We're both busy people,
so just wire it to me starting from next month.
No, come and collect it yourself.
I know you're trying to give me a hard time...
hoping that I'll eventually give up.
But I will come and get my money no matter what.
Go ahead.
Ms. Oh, is he your husband?
No!
I thought so.
What?
I don't want anyone else thinking that way,
so I'll be on my way now.
Hello.
Hello, what do you need?
I need 1.2kg of pork so I can make stir-fried spicy pork.
"Stir-fried spicy pork"? We got some good meat today.
Stir-fried spicy pork.
Here are some pork rinds. It's on the house.
Thank you for the offer,
- but it's not necessary. - Just take it.
No, my son doesn't want me to take this anymore.
But you always took it until now.
From now on, you don't need to give me this.
You're making me feel upset.
Why would you feel upset?
- Will you please just take it? - No.
If you're not busy,
you should sit here and have coffee with me.
- What? - I mean...
Have some tea and take a break.
I said no.
If you keep doing this, I won't be able to come back.
We live in the same neighborhood, so let's be friends.
We can talk about this and that.
- Let's talk about life and... - Let go of her!
Min Ho.
- Is he your son? - What are you doing here?
Why do you keep giving my mom pork rinds?
- What? - You're already married.
So why do you keep bothering my mom?
What? When did I bother her?
I just asked her to join me for coffee.
Why would you ask my mom to join you for coffee?
If you want to drink coffee, drink it with your wife.
Min Ho, what's wrong with you?
You're very rude, you little punk.
Min Ho!
You'd better stop giving my mom pork rinds.
You shouldn't come here either, Mom. Let's get out of here.
I can't believe that little punk.
I can't believe he really bit me.
It hurts so much.
Min Ho.
Stop right there! Min Ho!
What's the matter with you?
I'm always so worried about you.
What? Why are you worried?
Because you're single.
I'm worried because you're all alone.
I feel like I have to protect you.
And that makes me feel so worried.
Min Ho.
You should be the one protecting me, not the other way around.
I don't need you to protect me.
I can protect myself.
Then why didn't you say anything when the butcher asked you...
to have coffee with him?
I wasn't going to have coffee with him.
Why would I drink coffee with him?
I'm not that easy, you know. Don't you trust me?
It's not that I don't trust you.
I just don't trust the other men.
I understand why you're worried, but you don't need to feel that way.
Just live your life like a normal teenager.
I hate Dad!
I was scared of him when he was alive,
but I hate him now that he's dead.
What are you doing?
Hey, you're home.
Did you fight with Min Ho?
No, let's go inside.
Min Ho, did you upset your mom again?
What did I do?
- No, he didn't do anything. - Don't lie to me.
It's not easy for your mom to raise you guys on her own.
That's enough. Just eat your food.
Min Ji might be too young to understand,
but you're a middle school student.
It's time that you understand her.
I said that's enough.
My gosh, you should've just let him eat.
It's not always best to be easy on him.
Min Ho is about to hit puberty soon.
Just learn to ignore it.
What's puberty?
It's when kids start being rebellious.
My goodness, stop it.
Your brother is becoming an adult.
I can't wait to grow up.
Min Ji, don't grow up.
You're adorable right now.
Min Ji and Jumbak.
Stop growing up
Is there something wrong?
No.
I didn't know it'd be this hard...
to raise my kids without a husband.
That's why I sent my son to another family.
But you've been doing great.
Just keep it up.
Do you really think so?
After my husband died, I promised myself...
that I'll protect Min Ho and the baby that was inside me.
But Min Ho is the one who's worried about me.
He's mature for his age.
He's a considerate kid.
I feel bad that he's growing up so quickly.
Min Ho grew up well.
You raised him well.
Eun Ja, I'm so tired that I might faint.
I just got home after two days of doing surgery.
Yu Kyung got caught while trying to climb over a wall...
to skip class yesterday.
What?
Nothing happened because I told the teacher that I'll deal with it.
But if this happens again,
I won't be able to help her then even though I'm the principal.
I met up with Eun Ju for lunch and asked her for a favor.
I asked her to talk to Yu Kyung.
You should talk to your ex-wife.
I'm sure something happened there.
That's probably why she's being like this.
Okay, I'll talk to her.
Why are you drinking?
I wanted a glass of wine before I went to bed.
Did something happen? Is the director bothering you?
He came to the distribution center.
What?
Did you tell him that you're seeing someone?
- Did he come to check? - That's what it looked like.
- So what did you say? - I told him I don't know.
I had lunch with Uncle Dong Seok, and he even followed me there.
He's a stalker.
It's not that bad.
If he does it again, you should call the cops.
- He's the director. - So what?
He could be abusing his authority.
- Should I report him for you? - Report whom?
The director keeps following him around.
Just mind your own business.
If you're not interested, don't give him any hope.
Tae Woo, just stay still.
Don't get involved in someone else's life.
You'll only end up causing trouble.
And who knows what might happen between him and your sister?
Don't assume that nothing will happen.
I'll never get together with Kang Suk Hwan.
But it's weird.
He's exactly the type of guy you'd normally show interest in.
He's the chairman's son.
He's not the chairman's only son.
What's that supposed to mean?
You don't need to know.
After the interview got published,
a lot of people are curious to find out where you work.
How are things at your workplace?
Only the head manager knows.
I'll try my best...
to help you get promoted as a director.
I'll work hard and do well...
so that everyone will approve of the appointment.
Okay, I hope you do well.
Your birth mother will be happy if she sees you right now.
You're upset with your mom, aren't you?
To be honest, I was upset with her in the past.
If you expect a lot from someone,
you only end up getting disappointed.
So I don't expect anything from her anymore.
I'm so curious about how you guys ended up getting married.
We're very different, aren't we?
Yes.
I was a successful country boy from Gangwon Province.
I got a job at LX Group and did very well.
That caught your grandfather's attention.
And he chose me as his son-in-law...
instead of someone from a rich family.
He chose the right person.
Your mother always lived a fancy life,
so I'm sure it was hard for her to live as my wife.
Do you love her?
I'm not sure.
But I do feel very sorry.
I also left her with a huge burden.
Then you'll have to be nice to her for the rest of your life.
Do you think so?
I guess you're right.
(Mr. Kim)
- Hello? - Are you alone, sir?
I'm with Suk Joon. Go ahead.
He found a person who moved to the same address...
as the woman you're looking for.
Really?
He told me he'll call after he checks her current address.
Okay.
Who was that?
No, it's nothing.
About Suk Joon's birth mother...
How did Dad end up dating her?
She was a bar hostess.
She was a bar hostess?
It's so embarrassing that I can't even talk about it.
Does that mean Suk Joon is the son of a bar hostess?
What's even worse...
is that he lied and told me she died even when she was alive.
But he must be looking for her since he hasn't met her in a while.
What's the point of looking for her now?
Even if we find her, I'm going to make your dad think that she's dead.
I guess it really is scary when a woman gets angry.
- Is it Mr. Ha? - Yes.
Hello?
Mr. Kim just called the chairman.
It looks like they found someone who might be Kim Bok Soon.
What's the matter?
(Mom Has an Affair)
Do you still have eyes on Mr. Kim?
I think he'll soon find out Kim Bok Soon's phone number.
- Who's your new friend? - He met him while playing a game.
It'd be great to have a rich dad.
I will never get married again.
Ms. Oh, you and I are the ones...
who have to inspect the area tonight.
Stop!
Excuse me! Hey! Nuthead!
They found Suk Joon's mother. Don't make any mistakes.
Who knows what we might do?
I'm going to wait for my son!
