(Episode 81)
Mr. Choi.
Hello.
What brings you here?
I'm the chairman's doctor.
So I came to tell him his test results.
I see.
I'm working here as an intern.
Yu Kyung told me.
Is she doing well?
Yes. She's doing well in school too.
She's a very adaptable kid.
Whatever she chooses to do, I'm sure she'll do great.
I have something to tell you.
Will you spare me some time one day?
What is it about?
I'll tell you when we meet again.
Okay.
I've been meaning to talk to you about my sister as well.
I'll call you then.
Okay.
What did Mr. Choi say to you?
He wishes to meet me one day to talk to me about something.
About what?
I'm not sure.
So are you going to meet him?
I personally don't want you to meet him.
Why?
Yu Kyung's father...
likes you.
He might confess how he feels about you.
That's nonsense. He wouldn't do that.
You just haven't noticed...
He took good care of your mother until the day she passed away.
He's a kind man. Don't misunderstand him like that.
I heard your son...
asked the chairman to approve of your marriage.
Doesn't that already prove...
that you're using your kids to hold onto Suk Joon?
That's...
Are you going to tell me your son asked him willingly?
How naive.
You must've really wanted to hold onto Suk Joon...
seeing that your kids even got involved.
Watch what you say.
If you talk badly about my kids one more time,
I won't stand still.
Then let me ask you something.
What can you do for Suk Joon...
if you marry him?
I can fully support him so that he can spread his wings...
and make full use of his ability.
If we get married,
he'll go with me to the States and take over my dad's business.
He's not the type of guy to waste his time...
on answering calls from kids and looking after a single mother.
Suk Joon should get to choose...
whom he wishes to be with.
He's making the wrong choice,
so I'm just trying to set things right.
If you really love Suk Joon,
you should think about what will be best for him.
Why isn't he calling?
Whose call are you waiting for?
I'm just worried because Suk Hwan isn't home yet.
He has a wife.
Why would you get anxious and worry about him?
It's his wife who should be feeling that way.
Even if he's married, I still worry about my son.
Mom!
There you go. That's why he's late.
He's a married man, but he comes home drunk...
and looks for his mother. My goodness.
- Why did you drink so much? - What?
I couldn't help it.
They didn't tell me anything...
because they wanted me to keep drinking.
- Darn it. - Tell you what?
Don't bother listening to him. He's drunk.
Just take him upstairs and put him to bed.
Stop talking when you're drunk and just go to bed.
Do you understand?
Oh, okay. Got it.
Come on. Let's go.
Whatever he says, just remember that he's drunk.
- Don't take anything to heart. - Okay.
What did he find out?
What happened?
Suk Hwan, take off your clothes before you go to bed.
Here. Wait.
- My goodness. - Gosh, come on
(Call Logs: Ms. Yang)
"Ms. Yang"?
(Ms. Yang)
Executive Director Kang, did you go home safely?
I bet you had fun today, didn't you?
We have a lot of pretty girls,
so stop looking for Mi Ae.
"Mi Ae"?
Mr. Kang? Executive Director Kang?
Then let me ask you something.
What can you do for Suk Joon...
if you marry him?
I can fully support him so that he can spread his wings...
and make full use of his ability.
If we get married,
he'll go with me to the States and take over my dad's business.
He's not the type of guy to waste his time...
on answering calls from kids and looking after a single mother.
Suk Joon.
I missed you, so I thought I'd drop by before going home.
We never get to talk at work...
because we're both so busy.
- Where are the kids? - They're sleeping.
I want to see them sleeping before I go home.
Who did you meet today during lunchtime?
Tae Woo's mother.
Tae Woo is Ms. Lee's little brother.
That means his mother...
is the principal of Daehan Middle School.
Yes, you're right.
She brought up my parents...
and asked me to make them break up.
It was quite upsetting.
It's not your fault...
that your parents passed away.
To be honest, our dad is still alive.
Really?
He left us when I was in elementary school,
and we lost touch with him ever since.
Our mom had to go through a lot because of him.
It must've been hard for you and Soon Jeong as well.
We just pretended like he didn't exist.
We didn't let him worry us.
That's why I never got to tell you.
I understand.
By the way, about Yu Kyung's father...
- Look who's here. - Hey.
I wish you good luck with Tae Woo.
Thank you.
Everything's okay between you two, right?
Of course.
Pil Jeong, should I move back here?
I don't understand why we need to be apart...
when we love each other so much.
Is it because of Hye Jin?
I moved back to my old house to convince my dad,
but because of Hye Jin, you keep getting upset.
After Hye Jin came back,
I feel like you're always feeling uneasy.
And that makes me feel so sorry.
I heard her father decided to invest in the company.
It looks like she's involved with the company...
as much as she's involved with you.
You don't need to worry that far.
Okay, I won't.
You shouldn't let Yu Kyung's father bother you either.
Okay?
Who did you drink with last night?
I had a few drinks with my clients.
Thanks.
Did you also drink with bar hostesses?
They just poured drinks.
I didn't even let them come near me.
I swear.
I won't ever go there again.
My gosh, I need to go. Hold this for a moment.
My gosh.
Gosh, what a headache.
Eun Ju hasn't noticed anything, has she?
No, she just thinks I went to a bar.
Did you find out her number?
Ms. Yang was very careful about it.
She didn't tell me right away.
She told me she'll ask Mi Ae first.
So are you saying you didn't get her number?
Don't you know what I'm capable of?
I asked for all the expensive drinks and drank them.
Then I paid for everything in cash.
And that's when she told me.
So did you call her?
She told me she'll call...
as soon as her husband leaves.
- Yes, what do you need? - It's time to eat.
Oh, okay.
What did you talk about with your mother?
It's nothing important.
I might get an upset stomach while I eat because of you guys.
Ask him how he's able to eat...
after having disappointed his mother.
Ask her how she's able to eat...
after having slapped a beautiful lady.
You slapped Min Ho's aunt?
You darn punk.
I feel like you might become a really mean mother-in-law.
I'm not going to be her mother-in-law.
You're both being unreasonable.
You both need to yield for each other.
Are you saying I should let them get married?
You should try to reconsider your opinion about Soon Jeong.
And Tae Woo, give your mother some time to think.
If you agree to reconsider,
I'm willing to wait.
What do you say?
Okay, fine. Bring Soon Jeong home.
I'll meet her and see if I can reconsider
- Do you mean it? - Yes.
Try your best to make her change her mind.
Okay.
You met Tae Woo's mother?
Yes.
What did she say? She disapproves of me, doesn't she?
I had no idea she'd disapprove...
just because we have a dad who abandoned us.
She must've told you she disapproves because of our dad.
She's just looking for reasons to disapprove of me.
People always bring up family matters before marriage.
This is so upsetting. I just want to give up.
Hey, Tae Woo.
Your mother?
What's gotten into her?
Okay.
Tae Woo's mother invited me over to their house.
She was against our relationship up until yesterday.
I wonder what's gotten into her.
That's great.
Make sure you dress nicely when you go there.
Please tell your sister to think of Soon Jeong...
a bit more positively.
I keep telling her that.
Fortunately, this morning,
she told Tae Woo to bring Soon Jeong home.
Yes, I heard.
I think she'll approve of their relationship.
So don't worry about it too much.
Okay.
My high school friend...
is a vice-principal at this school.
And he told me they're currently hiring a PE teacher.
We were having a few drinks when he told me that,
and I suddenly thought of you.
You must worry about me a lot.
No, don't get me wrong.
I heard Kang Suk Joon's fiancee came to Korea.
I also ran into her at the office.
I just don't understand why you need to suffer because of them.
It upsets me a lot.
I'm sure it's hard for you...
to keep running into her at work.
And I also remember you telling me that you really enjoy...
teaching kids.
Thank you for looking out for me.
But I'm going to keep working here.
I love working as a teacher,
but now that I'm an intern here, I want to do a good job of it.
I don't want to give up on what I've already started.
You might continue to get hurt.
It's okay. I'll have Suk Joon by my side.
Thank you for worrying about me,
but I'm not Yu Kyung's teacher anymore.
So if I may be honest,
it feels a bit uneasy to see you worry about me so much.
Gosh, she should call me by now. Why isn't she calling me?
Should I try calling her?
Hello?
Mi Ae!
I'll send you my husband's photo.
I want you to follow him starting from today.
He might meet a woman named Mi Ae.
If he does, take a photo and send it to me right away.
What are you doing there?
Hey, you're here.
The meeting is about to start. Let's go.
Ms. Lee is running late.
Hye Jin will also be participating in our live streaming event.
So I called her to join the meeting.
I wasn't included in the list.
My goodness, really?
I think it's because we took volunteers.
From what I know, some people were invited.
Didn't the director invite you?
I also thought he would've invited her.
Thankfully, the chairman invited her to join.
Thank goodness.
I also think she can help us promote our products...
since she has a lot of followers.
But instead of just introducing the products,
I think it'd be better to wear the outfits yourself.
You want me to wear all those clothes?
We need to do our best to promote our products.
You're right. She should wear our products...
in order to have an advertising effect.
How about I just show the outfits that are on display?
Seeing an outfit on display...
and actually seeing someone wear it are both very different.
If you wear the outfits at the store,
your followers might feel the urge to buy one right away.
I agree with Pil Jeong.
The focus should be on our outfits.
So I think you should wear them.
After all, that's the purpose of our live streaming event.
Did Ms. Oh just embarrass me in front of Suk Joon?
I told you that she won't be an easy match.
She lived a tough life.
So if you're easy on her,
she just takes over.
How did Suk Joon fall for a woman like her?
At least it won't be a boring fight.
Let me know if you need my help.
Hasn't Suk Hwan ever upset you?
What?
He used to have a lot of issues with women in the past.
What kind of issues?
He always got involved with bar hostesses.
He spent so much money there,
so it's natural that they kept clinging onto him.
That was when he was young.
Now, he's a loyal husband.
I guess you're right.
He probably knows you won't stand still...
if he ever cheated on you.
Did you meet Yu Kyung's dad?
Yes.
Why did he want to meet you?
His acquaintance works as a vice-principal,
and he heard they're hiring a PE teacher,
so he told me I should apply.
So are you going to apply?
How could I? I'm working here.
Do you want me to leave and start teaching again?
I want you to stay.
But what you want is more important to me.
That's why I turned down the offer.
Teaching kids was fun.
But I like my current job as well.
Then do your best as an intern...
and try to become a full-time employee.
You just need to keep up the good work.
Hey, wait.
Didn't Mr. Choi say anything else?
Like what?
You're all I have.
Mom.
Park Tae Seob raised my son.
He lied to us and told us he sent my son to an orphanage.
- What? - Mi Ae called me.
She got married pretty recently,
so she was really worried that her husband...
might find out about her past.
Did she tell you that Park Tae Seob raised your son?
He turned out to be a real jerk.
He also wanted the money we gave to Mi Ae.
So he offered to take good care of her and the baby.
So he was living with both her and the baby?
Yes.
The business he started with her money didn't go very well,
and that's when he started being violent with her.
And one day, Mi Ae couldn't take it anymore,
so she just ran away to the States.
What about your son?
She left him with Park Tae Seob.
So she thinks either he raised him...
or sent him to an orphanage.
If that's the case,
then that means Park Tae Seob raised your son.
How can you be so sure?
We threatened to kill him,
but he still didn't tell us the name of the orphanage.
That means he never sent him to an orphanage.
Are you saying he was raising my son even when he tried...
to blackmail us for money?
That's highly likely.
So my son was being raised by Park Tae Seob's wife?
We still need to look into that.
Mr. Kim went to Park Tae Seob's funeral...
to compensate and settle for his death.
So that means he met her.
Call Mr. Kim right now...
and ask him about Park Tae Seob's wife.
Okay.
Mr. Kim.
Can we meet right now?
(Executive Director Kang Suk Hwan)
Did you meet Park Tae Seob's family?
His old house is going to get demolished,
so the place was empty.
By any chance, can you tell me his wife's number?
You gave her the compensation for his death.
The loan sharks took it right away.
Does that mean you don't know his wife's number?
His wife told me she didn't want anything from us...
and told me to take care of everything.
So I just got a confirmation note from the loan sharks.
Then I'm guessing you know the number of the loan shark.
Should I look into it?
Yes, I need you to do it right now.
Okay, I'll call you as soon as I check.
Okay.
Who was that?
He used to work as our attorney.
He came to tell me that he moved to a different law firm.
Are you sure he didn't come for anything else?
There's no reason for me to meet an attorney.
Our company attorney takes care of everything related to work.
Are you planning to drink again tonight?
No.
Should we go home together tonight?
Sure.
(3H Smart Massage Bed)
Soon Jeong went to Tae Woo's house?
Yes, I'm so nervous.
The principal invited her, so I'm sure things will go well.
How about you? Are things going well with Suk Joon?
You didn't seem so well last time. What happened to his fiancee?
She's a famous influencer,
so she's helping us promote our products.
That means she wants to stay right next to Suk Joon.
That's probably why I keep running into her at work.
She treats me so uncomfortably.
But you're not going to give up, right?
The person who endures everything will end up winning.
I'm so nervous.
You have me, so don't worry.
My mom invited you over to our house,
so I bet she'll approve.
- Okay. - Let's go.
Soon Jeong bought cream cake, your favorite.
- Do you want to try some? - No.
Do you want to get married that badly?
Yes.
If you give us your approval, I'll try hard to win your favor...
although I may be very lacking, Mother.
"Mother"?
She was really happy when my brother-in-law called her that.
Be quiet.
If you guys get married,
how much can you invest in buying a house together?
Pardon?
You guys need to buy a house if you want to get married.
It should at least be 82m².
You need at least 400,000 dollars to lease a place that big.
So if you were to split that money in half,
you need at least 200,000 dollars.
We agreed to start out in a small room.
She's right.
Oh, wait. I have my own apartment.
There's nothing to worry about.
You're going to marry her...
and expect to move in there?
Didn't you get it for me so I could live there once I get married?
You didn't buy that apartment.
You didn't invest a single penny.
I worked my guts out to buy that place.
I thought you were going to give it to me.
Yes.
I was going to give you the place...
if you brought home a decent woman whom I liked.
But you're telling me that you're going to live there with her?
I knew it.
I bet she dated you because she knew...
you had an apartment.
- Mom. - Don't even dream...
of living there without my permission.
Don't tell me you expect to move in here with us.
Did you ask me to bring her home so you could treat her like this?
I never once thought of moving into an apartment...
or living here.
I may have lived a tough life,
but I never coveted what wasn't mine.
I made my own money and got what I wanted myself.
She's right. She said we should start out by paying monthly rent.
Do you actually believe that?
Mom, don't make me hate you.
I think I should go.
Take back the cake you bought.
How dare you ignore me?
Tae Woo.
Oh, my gosh.
I'm sorry.
I can't take this anymore. I don't think we should get married.
Soon Jeong, don't make things worse for me.
Your mother won't approve. What do you want me to do?
Just leave it to me.
What do you plan to do?
I'm going to move out of my house.
Tae Woo.
I won't go home until my mom gives us her approval.
That won't work.
Just trust me and give me some time.
I'm sorry I upset you again.
I'll deal with my mom on my own.
Do you know Park Tae Seob?
"Park Tae Seob"?
You mean that guy who died seven years ago...
without even paying me back?
By any chance, do you know his wife's phone number?
How does 10,000 dollars sound?
"10,000 dollars"?
I'll let you know after I look into it.
Hey, wait.
Do you also know if Park Tae Seob had a son?
"A son"? Oh, yes. I saw him.
He was with his mom when we visited to collect money.
He was probably about seven years old.
Yes, that's right.
Just make sure you send me the money you promised.
What did he say?
He saw Park Tae Seob's wife...
with a kid who was around seven years old.
He must be your son.
Yes.
I got the number.
- Try calling right away. - Okay.
Come on.
Hello?
By any chance, are you Park Tae Seob's wife?
(Mom Has an Affair)
This guy right here is Director Kang Suk Joon.
It's my video.
I'm going to do what I want.
Stop interfering.
Pil Jeong is the woman I love.
- Do not mistreat her. - Suk Joon.
Have you lost your mind?
- Are you really going to marry her? - Yes.
Your life could change completely...
depending on what kind of woman you meet.
Who are you to ask about my son?
I'll tell you the details once we meet.
Where are you?
I'm sitting by the window. I'm wearing a white blouse.
Suk Hwan.
Oh Pil Jeong is Park Tae Seob's wife?
Remember Ms. Oh's son who came to our house last time?
Do you think he might be my son?
