(Episode 77)
Good work, everyone.
Everything got sold out in just 50 minutes.
Yes, I know.
I had no idea the products would sell so well.
The way Ms. Oh talked and behaved on screen was very natural.
I think it made her seem very friendly to the consumers.
A lot of young people bought the products as well.
Tell Ms. Oh that she did well.
If you tell her yourself, it'll really encourage her.
Okay, I'll do that.
You should give some money to the PR and Marketing Team...
so they could have a team dinner.
Okay, sir.
It's all because the show started off well with Eun Ju.
It's all thanks to her.
How is Eun Ju doing?
She's a lot better now.
I wasn't there to take care of her,
so you should've taken care of your sister-in-law.
Are you sure Ms. Oh did a proper job of supporting Eun Ju?
Are you saying Eun Ju got sick because of Pil Jeong?
That's enough.
The show went well,
and Eun Ju is fine, so it's all good.
Great work.
Thanks to you, we were able to sell everything on our first show.
Thank you.
I was really nervous. I'm relieved we did well.
How did you easily come up with what to say?
I only said what I thought.
I'm sure you still referred to Ms. Lee's lines.
Ms. Lee, how are you feeling?
I'm okay.
Good work, everyone.
The chairman gave us some money so we could have a team dinner.
Does he also think Ms. Oh played a major part...
in making this happen?
Are we going to do another show?
The home shopping company called and asked us to do another show.
Next time, it should be Ms. Lee. Don't you all agree?
Yes, I guess.
What's up with her?
I was just about to go see you.
You must be really upset.
I ended up giving the spotlight to Oh Pil Jeong.
I'm sure you'll get another chance.
And I promise I'll be there when that happens.
I bet your father complimented Oh Pil Jeong...
for having sold everything.
Gosh, that's just him complimenting an employee.
You're his daughter-in-law.
He cares about you a lot more.
I need to get pregnant...
in order to get your father's acknowledgement.
Let's get the IVF treatment and have a baby.
We have an appointment next week. Don't forget.
Okay, I won't forget.
You did great on the show.
I was able to muster up my courage because you were there.
My dad was really happy.
That's what excites me the most.
I feel like he acknowledged me, and that really makes me feel good.
If you keep getting his acknowledgement like this,
he'll eventually approve of you.
I hope so.
I get to see you at work like this.
But it's sad that I can't see the kids.
The kids miss you, too.
Should I drop by today?
Sure.
I need to go to the store now.
We won't be able to see each other until tonight.
Let me hug you for a little while.
A beauty care salon?
When did you start working there?
It kind of happened.
You should visit one day.
I'll make sure you get treated nicely.
Okay, I'll drop by for a facial one day.
I heard you're dating Tae Woo.
Yes.
I could tell there was something going on when you guys worked here.
- Really? - Yes.
I'm very quick-witted.
But his mother and sister are a bit difficult, aren't they?
That's why I was hesitant at first.
But I just decided to focus on the fact that we like each other.
That's great.
What about your sister? Is she doing well?
After Min Ho visited Suk Joon's family in Hannam-dong,
the chairman decided to reconsider about Pil Jeong.
Min Ho played Cupid for his mother.
(Tae Woo)
Hello?
Tae Woo.
You should've called if you were nearby.
Were you going to leave if I didn't drop by?
I know how busy you are.
No matter how busy I may be, I always have time to see you.
The reason I'm working so hard is because of you.
It's because of me?
Yes. I want to get married to the woman I love...
as fast as possible.
You mentioned getting married last time,
but I thought you were joking.
Did you really mean it?
Yes.
My sister and I had to live a tough life.
So I also couldn't wait...
to get married to the man I fell in love with.
I grew up lonely without a dad.
Did you also miss your dad?
Yes, of course. Don't you miss your dad, too?
I'm not sure.
I do miss him from time to time.
But I was mostly upset at him...
for not looking for us.
I'll give you all the love you never got from your dad.
Thank you.
I need to get going now.
I'm free for about an hour thanks to the part-timer.
Let me take you back to work.
Good work, everyone.
The chairman gave us some money so we could have a team dinner.
Does he also think Ms. Oh played a major part...
in making this happen?
Are... Are you...
Are you saying I'm infertile?
Seriously? Me?
I think you haven't been...
able to get pregnant because your husband is infertile.
Shouldn't you go back home?
Are you upset because of the show?
What's done is done. Don't let it bother you anymore.
You'll only end up feeling upset.
Nothing seems to work out...
ever since Pil Jeong started working at our company.
But you told me Suk Joon came back home.
Doesn't that mean it's over between them?
He only came back...
because Father told him he'll reconsider about Pil Jeong.
What?
I will never let her become a member of our family.
Tae Woo told me...
that you went to the hospital.
By any chance, are you guys...
We might get treated for infertility.
You might get treated for infertility? Why?
Who's the problem?
Suk Hwan.
Suk Hwan?
My goodness, I can't believe this.
He's very sensitive thinking that he might not be able to have kids.
Of course he feels that way. It must've hurt his pride.
Your mother-in-law must be disheartened.
No, not at all.
She cares a lot about keeping the family bloodline.
But strangely, she doesn't seem worried at all.
Knowing her personality,
she would've made you guys get a divorce...
if you were the one with a problem.
I need to have a baby...
in order to consolidate my position in the Kang family.
We'll get treated and have a baby no matter what.
- Mr. Kang. - Hey, have you been well?
Yes, I missed you.
I missed you too, Min Ji.
What about you, Min Ho? Didn't you miss him?
We talked yesterday on the phone while playing a game.
Why didn't you tell me?
Do I need to tell you everything that goes on between us?
You know how he's like.
- You're going to eat dinner, right? - Of course.
My dad might want to meet you soon.
Why?
Don't be so nervous.
He just wants to compliment and encourage you...
for having done a good job on the home shopping show.
What did you do while I was gone?
I had fun with Jumbak.
- You did? - Yes.
Jumbak.
- Come here, Jumbak. - Jumbak.
- Jumbak.
Eun Ja, you have a medical checkup next month.
Okay.
Why are you so down?
Suk Hwan is infertile,
so they're going to try IVF.
- Suk Hwan is infertile? - Yes.
The technology is very advanced these days.
There are lots of people who have babies through IVF.
I heard it's really difficult.
I don't know if Eun Ju will be able to put up with it.
She's a strong woman. She'll overcome it with Suk Hwan.
She's getting it done at your hospital,
so you should check on her.
Okay.
You must be tired due to the procedure.
If you're too tired, I'll drive you home.
No, I need to take care of some stuff at the office.
I'll go with you.
Okay then.
Are you going somewhere?
He wanted to treat Ms. Oh to lunch...
so he could thank her for doing well on the show.
Are you guys coming from somewhere?
We had some business to take care of.
If you didn't eat yet, you should join us.
No, you should go ahead.
You don't look so well. Are you okay?
Yes.
You got sick in the middle of the home shopping show.
You should've taken good care of your body before the show.
That's one of the many traits of a good leader.
I understand.
It only happened once.
It shouldn't happen again.
- Let's go. - Okay.
Look at how excited they are.
They're so annoying.
Let's go.
(Vice-chairperson Kim Hae Jeong)
Dad went to eat lunch...
with Suk Joon and Oh Pil Jeong.
How did the procedure go?
We need to wait for the results.
Suk Joon is making me...
want to have a baby as fast as possible.
What if he gets married...
and has a baby first?
Hey.
Never mind.
Let's talk once the test results are out.
Did you lose your handkerchief again?
Here you go, Dad.
I keep forgetting things due to my old age.
You should take care of your health.
Okay.
Is your husband dead?
Yes.
Can I ask you how he died?
Well...
I don't think you should ask her that.
Oh, do you think so?
I'm sorry.
It's okay.
How did you meet Suk Joon's biological mother?
We lived in the same neighborhood.
She gave me a lot of help.
I can't believe Pil Jeong is having lunch with the chairman.
I envy her so much.
I've been here for years, but I never got to eat with him.
I'm sure you'll get your chance.
Did you enjoy your lunch with the chairman?
Yes.
- Where is Ms. Oh? - She went to the store.
There are tons of stuff that needs to be photocopied.
I guess I'll just ask her to do it tomorrow.
Why don't you photocopy them yourself?
We didn't hire interns to make them photocopy stuff.
Well, yes.
But I used to photocopy stuff when I first started working here.
It's not like you to make her do something unfair...
just because you had to do it.
We should slowly get rid of the bad customs.
He obviously said that to take Ms. Oh's side, right?
But he's right.
Ms. Lee, I totally understand why you hate Ms. Oh.
When did I ever say I hate her?
Pardon?
After I started leaving the spotlight on at night,
a lot of people ask for the outfits underneath the spotlight.
I know, right?
I thought we had to leave all the lights on.
One way to catch people's attention even after the store is closed...
is to make them focus on one specific area.
Yes, it looks like you're right.
I didn't know the display would have such a big effect on our sales.
We've been getting more customers...
ever since you came.
See?
Welcome.
Hello.
- This looks nice. - Okay.
- Feel free to look around. - Okay.
I wonder if it's new.
Hey, Pil Jeong.
- Hello. - Hi.
I asked him to come over...
so I could introduce him to you.
I'm glad you're here. Let's sit down.
Soon Jeong told me about your relationship with my mom and sister.
I told him that you're not on good terms with his sister.
But that doesn't mean you hate me, right?
No, I don't hate you.
But I'm worried that your mom and sister might disapprove of you guys.
I tend to go against them.
When they tell me not to do something, I do it even more.
He knows how to take initiative and put things into action.
Whatever the case, please make sure Soon Jeong...
doesn't end up getting hurt.
Don't worry.
Are you going to marry my aunt?
I want you guys to get married.
You guys are so adorable.
- Is it yummy? - Yes.
Come sit down. I need to talk to you.
I really don't want to care...
about whom you marry.
But lots of people think of you as the son of LX Group's chairman.
That means you need to marry someone that suits our family...
if you don't want to humiliate us.
Are you telling me to have an arranged marriage?
Yes, if that will end up helping the company.
It's the least you can do to thank us for raising you.
I can't believe you want to marry a single mother.
If people find out, it'll be an embarrassment to our family.
Pil Jeong is a great woman.
It looks like Dad's willing to reconsider about her,
so you should also try to see her for who she really is.
Don't think that your father...
will approve of Oh Pil Jeong.
He still wants you to marry Hye Jin.
I decided to end it with her a long time ago.
Then why hasn't your father told her anything yet?
That's because her mother is ill.
Do you really think that's why?
Do you no longer want Hye Jin to be your daughter-in-law?
To be honest, I'm still hoping that Suk Joon will change his mind.
Then why did you treat Oh Pil Jeong to lunch?
That was for work.
She might get the wrong idea and start having hope.
Don't lead her on.
Enough about that.
Have you heard anything from Suk Hwan?
I'm talking about a baby.
I don't think they want a baby yet.
Why don't they want a baby yet? They're both pretty old now.
Let them decide on their own.
If Eun Ju isn't getting pregnant because she's too tired,
you should buy her some tonics.
I'll deal with that. Just don't try to get involved.
Why not? This is regarding my bloodline.
You were willing to hand over the company to Suk Joon...
even though he isn't your son.
But now, you make it sound like you care about your bloodline.
I insisted on handing it over to the person who's more competent.
I never said that was going to be Suk Joon.
That's pretty much what you meant.
I'm sorry, but the implantation didn't take place.
This was only your first try.
Does this have a low success rate?
Not a lot of people succeed that easily.
But do you think we'll succeed at least once...
if we keep trying?
I can't guarantee anything.
If you can't get pregnant through IVF,
you can always adopt.
Even I could say the stuff she said.
Like the doctor said, we only tried once.
Even if it has a low success rate,
this is our only way to have a baby.
Are you thinking about giving up...
and adopting a kid?
"Adopt"?
I want our baby.
The doctor told us that it's common to try this multiple times.
Are you saying you want to keep doing this?
Yes.
I thought about it.
And I started to think that maybe you keep bullying me...
because you're jealous of me.
You think I'm jealous of you?
You're unbelievable.
What could possibly make me jealous of you?
There are a few.
You've never been married, but I was married once.
You don't have kids.
But I have two.
I'm going to keep trying until I get pregnant.
I'll keep trying until I succeed.
Yes, okay.
How did it go?
It didn't work.
Is it supposed to be this hard?
People normally try a few times before they succeed.
So don't get too disappointed.
Eun Ju wants her own kid.
I think that's why she's so eager to keep trying.
I see.
If things don't work out,
I guess she'll just have to adopt.
You shouldn't say anything.
If you keep talking about it when they're sensitive,
it'll only give them a hard time.
Okay.
Hello, sir.
Hello.
It's a handkerchief.
I noticed that you might need one last time.
It's totally fine with me even if you end up losing it.
So there's no need to feel pressured.
I'm surprised you remembered.
Thank you.
Thank you for accepting my gift.
I'll be off now.
She's going to try and win Father's favor?
Hey.
How did it go?
It didn't work.
Where is Suk Hwan?
He left the hospital without me.
But I guess he isn't back yet.
Where is he? We need to go to a meeting soon.
Did you pressure him?
What?
He's already depressed about this.
Did you say something to upset him...
because things didn't go well?
No, I didn't. I'm upset about this, too.
But I'm sure Suk Hwan has it worse.
We'll succeed if we keep trying.
I'm not going to give up.
- What? - Are you drinking?
Yes.
Drinking alcohol is the only thing I can do.
You missed the meeting because you were busy drinking?
Your father's really angry at you...
for not attending the meeting without even calling beforehand.
I don't care if he's angry at me.
Behaving like that won't solve anything.
What else can I do?
Come home for now.
Let's talk once you're home.
I'll decide when to go home.
Let's hang up.
Isn't Suk Hwan home yet?
No.
He's having a drink with the clients.
He missed the meeting but found the time to drink?
He's doing it for the business.
What a bunch of nonsense.
Why haven't I seen Mr. Ha lately?
I heard he quit.
He quit without even telling me?
He went back to the States because his foster parent was sick.
Hey, Chairman Park.
Yes, of course. Have you been well?
Yes, I'm doing well.
Who's Chairman Park?
He's Hye Jin's father.
Who's Hye Jin?
She's the girl who almost married Suk Joon.
I thought they broke things off.
Hye Jin's mother is ill,
so your father-in-law didn't think it was right to tell Hye Jin.
I heard he told Chairman Park,
but I'm not sure.
Does that mean Hye Jin still expects to marry Suk Joon?
Yes, that is, if her father didn't tell her anything.
Hye Jin liked Suk Joon a lot more than he liked her.
What is it?
I think we can use Hye Jin to our advantage.
If Hye Jin is still willing to marry Suk Joon,
she might be our only way to make Oh Pil Jeong...
break up with Suk Joon.
You want Hye Jin to take Oh Pil Jeong's place?
Yes.
If she becomes your sister-in-law,
it'll put you at a disadvantage.
I don't care. I'm going to use Hye Jin...
to make Suk Hwan the successor.
You're going to do that by using Hye Jin?
I know Suk Joon gave up on all his inheritance...
and says he isn't interested in becoming the successor.
But you never know when he might change his mind.
We need someone on our side...
to make sure Suk Hwan becomes the successor.
Are you saying that's Hye Jin?
No, Hye Jin's father.
You know her phone number, right?
Should I sleep over tonight?
The chairman will think I made you sleep over.
My dad asked you...
a lot of questions today while we had lunch.
He seemed to be interested in you.
Is it okay for me to have hope?
Of course.
Let's go to the suburbs with the kids this weekend.
Min Ho and Min Ji will love that.
I'll come pick you up, so get ready to leave.
- Okay. - I'll be off now.
See you.
Welcome.
I'll take your bag.
- Suk Joon. - Hye Jin.
I missed you, Suk Joon.
(Mom Has an Affair)
I missed you a lot, Suk Joon.
Didn't you miss me?
You know Suk Joon likes someone else, right?
Is she that better than me?
What did I tell you?
I told you Suk Joon is too good for you.
You're the woman I love.
Both their families wanted the two of them...
- to get married. - Let me help you with that.
Why do I feel so nervous?
We can always try again.
I'm sure we can have a baby.
I wasn't like this in the past.
All it took was one shot.
Let's find your son and bring him back.
What did you just say?
To be honest, I didn't give birth to Min Ho.
