(Guidelines were strictly followed when filming with children.)
You must really like Dan Soo.
Oh, my daughter.
I don't want you to be hurt.
Oh, Dad.
Why are you standing there like that?
Well, I was just...
I'm in the mood for a drink.
I'll fix you a plate to go with your drink.
- Oh, boy. - Go and get some rest.
Dad.
I made you worry again, didn't I?
I'm sorry.
There will be many hardships,
but I'll be able to get through them since I'm with Dan Soo.
Come on, Dad.
(Episode 117)
- Is Gu Reum sleeping? - Hush.
How could he be this adorable?
Tell all the cumulus clouds and cirrus clouds to make way.
Our Gu Reum is the prince of the sky.
He'll grow to be a wonderful person who can move people's hearts.
What?
Now, you're blinded by your love for Gu Reum?
I'm still blinded by my love for Maeng Gong Hee.
This eye, actually. It's permanent.
And the other one's for Gu Reum.
Gosh, you.
Today was so hectic, wasn't it?
All the reporters and the family too.
Yes, it was. I still find it so hard to believe.
I still feel like it was all a dream.
Well, it's nice that we no longer have to hide it.
Everyone in the world knows that you and I are in love.
You probably have no idea how much I've waited for this day.
Gu Dan Soo.
I...
will never forget this day.
What you said about me in front of all those reporters.
I'll always remember it...
and become the inspiring person you described me as.
Maeng Gong Hee.
You've always been my hero since we were little.
You were always so cool,
brave, and confident.
"Let hardship come my way. I can handle it."
Maeng Gong Hee never falters.
That is who you are.
Remember this, Maeng Gong Hee.
You're such an inspiring and wonderful person.
That's why some people try to get in your way...
and are jealous of you.
From now on,
I'll have to put up with more people being jealous of me.
I bet you haven't read the comments.
What comments?
"I can't believe she seduced Holly to move up in the world."
"Maybe she has watched too many TV dramas."
"Holly has lost his mind. He's way out of her league!"
You already read all the comments?
What do those people even know?
I know that you're too good for me.
I'll be even better to you from now on...
so you won't have to be stressed.
Hey, this is so unlike you.
Being mature like this.
The more I think about it,
the harder it is for me to forgive you.
How could you hide...
something like that from your wife...
for decades?
What was I to you?
We've lived all those years together calling ourselves a married couple.
What a big joke.
Ever since you married me,
you've never once lived comfortably.
You struggled a lot because of me.
I didn't want to add to your stress,
so I couldn't tell you.
You kept it from me for my own sake?
Did you think it'd make me happy to see you...
with your lips tightly sealed all the time?
I'm a sinner.
I don't want to hear that anymore.
You never once told me...
what you actually did.
You always just said, "I'm a sinner."
Nothing else.
Without even knowing the reason,
I lived like a sinner's wife for dozens of years.
Why would you say you killed someone?
You did not kill him.
Why would you say such a thing?
It was my fault that it happened.
If only I hadn't called him there that day,
and if only I hadn't shouted at him...
to catch the perp on the run,
Dan Soo's father...
wouldn't have ended up like that.
So,
I practically got him killed.
Goodness.
Why would you down it like that?
You can't even drink.
You and I...
gave birth to the kids and raised them,
but we've done nothing for them as their parents.
You know that, right?
Of course, I know that.
If you know that, then what do you plan to do...
for Gong Hee from now on as her father?
We should stop her...
from marrying Dan Soo.
How could you say that as a father?
Gong Hee has finally found her true love.
Do you want her to be hurt again...
because of what you did in the past?
If you're her dad,
you should at least not get in her way.
What's that?
Breakfast.
Isn't it too little for the family?
It's my breakfast.
I like to eat light when I'm stressed.
You ordered breakfast for yourself only?
Yes. Why?
Hey, it's not like you live alone here.
We should eat together.
How could you eat alone?
Don't mind me.
I'm more comfortable eating alone.
I should prepare breakfast.
I'll take care of it. I don't need your help.
Do you even know what we normally have for breakfast?
Still, I should help you.
Wait.
If you're going to do this,
why do you even live here?
Go back to your place and do whatever you want.
Mother, I have my own routine too.
I'm busy enough as I get ready to go to work.
Must I deal with you too, Mother?
What? Deal with me?
What would I ever do to bother you?
I'm the one who's putting up with a demanding daughter-in-law.
I'm tired enough as it is.
Please don't raise your voice at home.
When I hear your voice,
I get a headache.
What?
Are you saying my voice gets on your nerves?
Hey! Seriously.
I don't want to compare, but really?
Gong Hee told me that my voice sounded like a song.
She said hearing my voice lifted her mood.
I can't be fake like that.
"Fake?"
Gosh, the stress!
My goodness.
All right. Let's go over our plan again.
At lunchtime...
I talk to the teacher...
and get my shoes out of the shoe cubby.
And then, you quietly leave the daycare center...
and step outside.
- This is called... - Operation Spy.
A secret operation between two men.
Can you tell Mom or not?
- I can't. - That's right.
This isn't lying. Of course not.
Hiding the uncomfortable truth is nothing wrong.
Hey, what are you guys talking about so seriously?
What? Well, it's...
Nothing.
We were talking about today's lunch menu at daycare.
You're acting very suspicious.
What are you up to?
Hurry up and tell me.
Dad and I were playing spies.
Hey, No Ah. How could you say that?
Oh, right. He said it was a secret between us men.
Mom, you have to keep our secret too, okay?
Oh, is that so?
You left Re Ah and me out...
and had fun playing spies as a secret...
between the men?
What could it be about?
- That is... - No Ah!
Commence operation!
Let's go.
Hey, what's this?
My gosh.
Unbelievable.
What kind of plan did they cook up this time?
Is it perhaps...
a surprise present for Mom...
who's working so hard?
Gosh, seriously.
(Maeng Dumplings, Tiffany Alterations)
You've been looking so nervous since earlier.
My mom really liked you.
You two were close too.
But things have changed now.
So have my circumstances.
Don't worry.
Mom will be on our side.
What? The shop should be open today.
She must not be here yet.
But she's usually here at this hour.
That's strange.
Dan Soo.
Mom, where are you now?
What do you think you're doing, hiding there like a rat?
How dare you?
I let you into my home...
so you could act like a proper mother.
But you couldn't hold yourself back for a moment and called Dan Soo...
to plot against me?
It's not like that.
Then, why were you calling Dan Soo...
when I told you not to do anything?
And you call yourself a mother.
You don't even realize you're ruining your child's life.
Good going.
I'm warning you.
Don't even think about stepping out of line and scheming.
Don't even go to the neighborhood...
where Maeng Gong Hee or whatever lives!
And cut off contact with Dan Soo for the time being.
I'll deal with this myself.
I plan to...
stand by and watch, no matter what he chooses to do.
You will stand by and watch?
Will you stand by and watch...
as Dan Soo regrets getting involved with that girl for his whole life?
Please look into Dan Soo's heart.
Shut it!
I won't allow it. Not even over my dead body!
Never!
(Mir Home Produce, Tiffany Alterations)
Dan Soo.
I'm okay.
I won't be able to go to the shop for a while.
Don't worry about me.
Dan Soo,
just do what you can from your position.
You asked me to cheer you on, right?
I'm sorry for my late answer.
I always believe in you,
and I'll cheer you on.
My goodness.
They left to officially greet his mom,
but I wonder what they're talking about.
I mean, Sleepwalker was like, "Those two can't be together!"
She was yelling, you know.
Why can't Gong Hee and Dan Soo...
be together?
Sure, they may be childhood friends,
but friends can become lovers and get married.
It happens all the time.
Anyhow, Sleepwalker is...
She can be so stubborn in the weirdest ways.
Goodness.
Oh, my.
They're already back.
- Mom. - Hey.
So, did the greeting go well?
I think something is going on with my mom for the time being.
She won't be coming into work for a while.
She texted me and said so.
But what could be going on...
that she can't even come to work?
She's the one who comes to work before anyone else...
and is the last to leave this building every day.
Dan Soo, will you tell me where your mother is?
I think I should talk to her first.
Do you mean the true culprit is still out there?
(Holly, Executive Director of Jayce Fashion, Announces Marriage!)
I'm sure you'll soon find out who tried to frame Ms. Maeng...
and kick her out.
Oh, my. Mr. Gu is a great man, indeed.
Just making an announcement in the company's lobby.
Announcing his marriage just like that.
I never knew he was this amazing.
I know.
By the way, Mr. Gu said this to the reporters for sure, right?
That the real culprit who leaked his designs is still out there.
Gosh, who could he be talking about?
What do you think you're doing?
We're from the Inspection Team.
Ms. Kang Ji Na. Please come with us.
What?
You shouldn't do this to me.
Ms. Kang Ji Na.
Compared to what you've done,
I'd say I'm being very nice to you.
Let go of me! I told you to let go.
You'd better cooperate with the inspection.
If you lie,
things will only get worse.
Gu Dan Soo, do you think you can get rid of me so easily?
You will regret this for sure.
I'm already regretful enough as it is.
For keeping someone like you...
around me.
Let go of me!
Let go!
Wait.
Why would the Inspection Team take Ms. Kang?
Could Ms. Kang be the culprit who leaked those designs?
Yes.
I hope you all know the truth now.
You said you were the loudspeaker of Jayce Fashion.
Then, let's get the word out loud and clear...
for the whole company to know.
Yes, sir. I'm confident I can do that.
Mr. Gu.
Would you happen to have anything you'd like me to do?
Right.
This desk.
Please have it cleaned out.
It belonged to someone we will never be seeing again.
Yes, sir.
I'll take care of it immediately.
This way.
One moment.
What's going on?
Let go of me. I'll go myself.
Gu Dan Soo did this.
I must meet with the chairwoman first.
For now, just follow the Inspection Team's procedure...
What? How can you tell me to just follow their procedure?
Let's go.
Unbelievable.
Darn it.
Do you have to take things this far?
I should put things right.
This is how I take responsibility.
Do you think I'll let you get away with this?
What will you do if you don't?
When Gong Hee was wrongfully terminated,
what were you doing?
The thing is,
Ms. Kang actually did something wrong.
And you'll step in to help her?
My gosh. Aren't you embarrassed?
Gu Dan Soo.
Stop calling my name so fondly,
or I might grow attached to you.
Also, don't step in.
If you keep doing this, more rumors will spread.
The business trip report you two submitted...
No.
Your travel report is in my hands now.
Do you need people to know about your affair...
to learn your lesson?
What are you saying?
Ms. Kang was dragged away by the Inspection Team?
I just got a call from the Inspection Team.
That means...
it's too late for me to step in.
(Jayce Fashion Design Leak, Real Culprit Was Someone Else!)
Public opinion has completely shifted.
Now, people believe...
that someone else did it, not Maeng Gong Hee.
Will you be all right?
If Ms. Kang tells them...
that you ordered her to do it...
Hush!
How dare you say such a thing?
Ms. Chairwoman, you must have a big headache now.
How dare you provoke me like this?
Do you want to fight me?
Oh, please. You were the one who started this fight.
You framed a hardworking employee and fired her.
You're also keeping Mom at home, so she can't even work.
Don't you think you're being too reckless?
Should I show you what it really means to be reckless?
You seriously underestimated me.
Doing things the right way?
Why should I care about that?
I will do whatever it takes to protect my grandson.
I will stop you from marrying that girl,
at all costs.
Whatever you do,
it won't work.
Now,
the whole country knows that I'm taken.
Why, you...
I'm heading home to get Mom.
When Mom said she'd go and live with you,
I should've talked her out of it.
And about Ms. Kang Ji Na.
She's not one to go down alone.
What?
If the board finds out that you ordered her to do it,
can you handle the consequences?
Keeping your position will be secondary.
What about all the humiliation?
To fire a mere employee,
you had a team manager frame her.
Talk about a shallow trick.
Only amateurs would make such a move.
Why are you standing there?
Go and get the car ready.
- Oh, give me that. - My gosh.
I got this.
My goodness.
Hey, Mr. Detective. I guess you have nothing to do.
Why do you come here every day?
I always have stuff to do.
I make time to come here and see you.
What is it that you do?
I'm like a private detective, so to speak.
I gather evidence of extramarital affairs...
and catch them in the act.
Stuff like that, you know.
My gosh. You scared me.
Do people still hire private detectives...
to catch their cheating spouses in the act?
Oh, boy.
Then your fantasy of marriage...
must've been shattered to pieces by now.
I do...
want to get married.
Even after seeing all that?
You still want to get married?
You've been married once. Isn't that enough?
Gyeong Bok, don't you want to marry?
It'd be so sad to grow old like this...
and die alone.
Goodness. But considering my age now,
why should I bother getting married?
Cohabiting may be a different story, though.
We all have our own opinions.
Does that mean...
he was considering marrying me, even?
Is Maeng Gyeong Bok's life...
about to welcome a warm spring breeze at last?
Where did I put the green onions?
Cohabiting?
I'm really sorry for making you come all the way here, Myung Ja.
So, you've been staying here?
Yes.
Have some.
I heard about everything.
About Dan Soo's father.
Audrey.
Now, I understand why you said...
Dan Soo and Gong Hee could never be together.
Now, I also know why you and Gyeong Tae...
kept talking in private.
Audrey, I owe you an apology.
An apology? No.
You were always so good to me.
To be honest,
I had the wrong idea about you, Audrey.
"Why is my husband telling Audrey what is on his mind..."
"when he doesn't tell me a thing?"
"Why does my husband always put everything aside..."
"and disappear to help Audrey when she's in trouble?"
I apologize for thinking like that.
I mean it.
When I first met you and Gyeong Bok,
I had no idea what had happened...
between Mr. Maeng and Hae Joon in the past,
and I really wanted to cherish our friendship.
You were so warm to me.
When those people tried to kick me out of the building,
you ladies protected me.
Because of what happened to Dan Soo's father,
you don't want Gong Hee and Dan Soo...
to be together. Is that it?
It wasn't entirely Mr. Maeng's fault.
I know that.
I just needed someone to blame.
How foolish of me.
Honestly, I'm more worried about Chairwoman Hwang now.
She is too attached to her son and her grandson as well.
Even with me,
she did whatever she could...
to separate me and Dan Soo's dad.
Are you saying...
she might do something to Gong Hee too?
I hear...
Gong Hee has been let go.
What?
The fact that she's dating Dan Soo...
is enough to make her do something like that.
If she finds out about Hae Joon,
things could get even more dangerous.
What are you two cooking up right now?
Who are you?
Is this Chairwoman Hwang Ik Sun's home?
Yes, it is.
Why do you need to see my grandmother?
(My Merry Marriage)
You said the contest winner...
would go on to manage the New Business Team.
That hasn't changed, right?
I just wanted to make sure.
Who won the new business contest?
Let me pay...
for what I did.
How is that forgiveness?
Don't ruin Gong Hee's future.
Let's keep our lips sealed.
Let's just bury it.
Mr. Maeng!
What does this all mean?
