(Episode 119)
Hey, what's up with you?
What's going on?
Did Chairwoman Hwang say something?
You look anxious. What is the matter?
I'm just...
so happy. That's all.
I'm so happy now...
that it scares me.
I'm afraid this happiness might vanish.
I should be saying that.
I can't believe I'll manage the New Business Team.
Manager Maeng Gong Hee.
You can't ignore me because you're a hotshot now.
That'll depend on how you behave yourself.
Congratulate me properly.
You've worked harder than anybody else.
No one is more serious about designing clothes than you are.
I know all about it.
Maeng Gong Hee, congratulations from the bottom of my heart.
The position is perfect for you.
You are the best fit...
for the role.
Why are you so serious? This is unlike you.
Congratulations, Manager Maeng Gong Hee.
No matter what happens from now on,
I'll always be on your side.
Thank you, Executive Director Gu Dan Soo.
No matter what happens...
from now on,
I'll always be by your side.
I will not leave you,
ever.
(Oh Pine, You Verdant Pine)
Hey, Gyeong Tae. Stop drinking.
You'll ruin your health at this rate.
Mother.
Auntie.
I am still alive, right?
Gong Hee.
- Can you see me? - What?
Look at my feet.
Am I floating now?
I guess you didn't get any sleep again.
Does Re Ah still whimper all through the night?
Look at your face. You look like the Grim Reaper.
Gong Boo whimpered all night when he was a baby too.
She got that from her father.
I'd try to put him down because he seemed asleep,
and he'd start crying again.
The Maeng family's genes are surely strong.
No Ah is just like Gong Boo too, you know.
So, you're saying...
I have to take care of Maeng Gong Boo...
and his two Mini-Mes?
I have to raise Maeng Gong Boo 1, 2, and 3?
This is too much.
Mother, take your son back.
No, I don't want to.
You said he was yours and told me never to touch him.
I take it back. I want a refund.
I didn't know...
it'd be this hard to take care of a child alone.
Gosh, I'm sorry.
I can't distinguish between what happened yesterday and today.
I don't even know what today is anymore.
Hong Dan.
I'll take care of Re Ah today.
You should go out and get some air.
Enjoy some alone time.
Really?
Can I really do that?
Yes. Go out and do something to cheer yourself up.
Maeng Gong Hee.
I really...
love you. You know that, right?
Seriously, you are the best. My gosh.
Hold on. Here.
Careful. Don't wake her up.
- I'll be going, then. - Yes, go.
Okay, bye!
My goodness. Oh, my.
- She's fast asleep. - She is.
I've made up my mind.
I'll heed your advice and get the surgery.
Good.
I'm glad to hear this.
After we got divorced,
I regretted it, to tell you the truth.
"I should've at least asked him why he did it."
"I should've given him another chance."
Then I found out I was pregnant with No Ah.
I felt anxious...
but happy at the same time.
Something...
came out of our marriage, after all.
I felt like it proved it wasn't for nothing.
You know what I mean.
My, this air and this smell!
I feel so free. How long has it been?
Freedom.
Hang on.
What else do I need to get?
Right, I forgot to buy a hat for Re Ah.
I should buy the same one as No Ah's.
Oh, no. My hair. What happened to my hair?
That man...
That head looks familiar.
The shape of his head looks familiar.
About No Ah...
Take good care of him.
He's the pillar that holds my life together.
You can say that to him...
when you're back after your surgery.
My gosh. Funny running into you here.
I was out shopping, which I hadn't done in a long time.
While buying a bunch of things for the kids,
I lost track of time.
I suddenly felt thirsty,
so I came in here to get something to drink.
My gosh.
That butt looks familiar.
Oh, honey.
Are you here to get a coffee?
My gosh. What were you doing there, honey?
Oh, I saw some money on the floor, so...
I'll explain.
Please save me.
No.
I'll hear it from him.
Follow me quietly.
- Now. - Honey.
Will you let me walk without dragging me?
Shut your mouth.
Okay, sorry.
Oh, gosh. Honey, I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to lie to you.
You said the clinic was busy.
You said you were so busy...
and made me look after the kids alone.
But you had time...
to meet your ex-wife and have coffee with her?
- No, let me... - What were you two talking about?
You looked like you were about to cry.
Why? Did you talk about how you two should've never split up?
Like in those movies?
No, hear me out first.
I told you I'd kill you if you ever lied to me,
no matter the intentions.
I said you'd have to face your death if you deceived me again.
Hey, come here.
You, come here.
- You're so dead. - Wait.
No, let me explain.
I won't let you deceive me again. You little...
- Come here. Hey. - Hold on.
- You jerk! - Oh, that hurts so much.
- You were having coffee with her... - No, but...
- in broad daylight? - Please hear me out. It hurts!
- Gosh, seriously. - I'm sorry. I was wrong.
My goodness!
I'm impressed, Ms. Maeng Gong Hee.
You were shameless enough to crawl back in here.
I've only returned to my rightful place.
I've done nothing wrong.
Listen carefully.
Your place is beneath my feet.
Got it?
Congratulations on your return, Gong Hee.
No, I mean... Manager Maeng.
Congratulations, Manager Maeng.
You must've been busy with me gone.
Since I'm back now,
I'll get used to my new duties soon.
Hey, you're already starting to sound like a team manager.
Oh, come on.
All right, then. Manager Maeng.
Where should you sit now? Let's see.
What do you think you're doing in my chair right now?
Well, I'm sorry,
but I think you need a little update.
This desk belongs to someone else now.
Oh, the thing is...
Ms. Kang, you're not a manager anymore.
The results of the inspection showed...
that you, Ms. Kang Ji Na who leaked Holly's designs,
must step down from your position as the design team's manager...
to a regular employee as of today.
I wanted to tell you this important news in person.
Manager Maeng Gong Hee.
This is your desk now.
What do you all think you're doing?
Oh, right.
Ms. Kang Ji Na, you'll be working on the same team from now on.
I'd appreciate it if you could do your best...
to support Manager Maeng.
Darn it.
You ordered me to do this, ma'am.
You told me to kick Maeng Gong Hee out of the company!
Ms. Kang Ji Na!
How dare you speak so rudely before the chairwoman?
You should take responsibility.
How could you do this to me?
Did I ever order you to kick that employee out of the company?
Ma'am.
I never said a word.
The misinterpretation was on your part, Manager Kang...
No. You are just a regular employee now.
Seeing how you ran over here...
the moment you heard about your demotion,
you neither have any self-restraint...
nor a plan for yourself.
What? And what is this about the New Business Team?
Are you telling me to work under Maeng Gong Hee?
A promotion to team manager...
was promised to the winner of the contest.
Of course, it is only right.
The entire TF Team...
will be fully focusing on the new business.
That's that. You should go now, Ms. Kang.
Oh, and...
you're a line-level employee now. When you have a meeting with me,
please be sure to conduct yourself properly.
(Chairwoman Hwang Ik Sun)
Ma'am, they're ready for you now.
Let's go.
Were you just going to use me and throw me out like this?
This is...
the end for me?
Be grateful you weren't fired.
If you spew nonsense,
it'll cost you your career.
Just remember that.
Goodness.
Do you know what I just had to go through?
Did you pull a stunt like that without even expecting this much?
Seo Min Gi, you have no intention of taking my side, do you?
I'm just saying that what's wrong is wrong.
So, you think I'm in the wrong?
I was the only bad person?
When you had Gong Hee terminated...
by going as far as to fabricate the situation,
you should've expected to face this in return.
Both you...
and me.
What do you mean by that?
I think we're being punished...
for all of our wrongdoings.
Even in this moment, all you care about is...
Maeng Gong Hee!
Hey.
The meeting is about to start.
Are you going somewhere, Manager Kang...
Oh, sorry. You aren't a manager anymore.
I'm taking the day off! So what?
Let's get started.
Joo Ri, are your son's wedding plans coming along fine?
What? Yes, of course.
She moved in here...
with all of her stuff even before the wedding.
They'll be living elsewhere once they're married,
but she says she wants to have time to bond with me.
She's such an affectionate girl.
She's not at all like a rich family's daughter.
I see.
Is that right?
Time to bond? As if.
I'm losing any and all affection I had for her.
I wish I could cry on your shoulders right now, girls.
Hey, by the way,
I've heard some strange things about Dodo Group lately.
I know.
All that stuff about building up a slush fund.
It was even on the news.
Gosh, I hear their stock prices are all over the place too.
Goodness. What are you talking about?
That's not true at all.
Is that so?
But...
even my husband said he heard about it at work.
Apparently, Dodo Group will be audited soon.
I said it wasn't true.
Don't get swept up by such rumors.
My future daughter-in-law is Dodo Group owner's only child.
How would I not know about such things?
Oh, my.
You're here, my daughter-in-law.
What brings you home so early?
My goodness.
Oh, my.
She seems to be very stressed these days.
She's not usually like that.
Oh, dear. I'm so worried.
My gosh!
Goodness. What's going on?
- Hey, let's go. - Oh, my. Let's go.
Hey, what are you doing right now?
Why did you come in here again?
I asked you to keep my privacy, didn't I?
Hey! My friends are here right now.
Quiet down, will you?
Are your friends important?
Don't you even want to know what I've been through?
Do you know how irresponsible your son is...
and what humiliation I had to endure?
Oh, my!
Gong Hee, I heard you went back to work...
and started your job as a team manager today.
Congratulations.
Dan Soo helped me out a lot.
What did I do to help?
You did it all on your own.
Mom, she is...
Oh, right.
There's a cake to congratulate you in the backseat of the car.
I forgot to bring it in.
Hey, you didn't have to prepare all that.
Could you go and get it?
I have something to discuss with Mom for a minute.
Oh, okay. I'll be right back.
I heard from Mr. Maeng.
About what happened to Dad.
You found out in the end.
What about Gong Hee?
She doesn't know yet.
I don't want her to know.
All his life, Mr. Maeng...
has had to live with the guilt that it was his fault.
Who do you think Gong Hee takes after?
She already feels so apologetic toward me.
I don't want to make it worse for her.
Things will become more difficult once Chairwoman Hwang finds out.
Are you prepared to deal with that?
Yes, we can get through it.
It was a tragedy no one could stop.
People getting hurt by it...
and turning away from each other because of it.
I don't want that to happen anymore.
I'm just going to ask you three questions.
Here's the first one.
You kept trying to avoid me.
So, how come...
you've been lurking around my house since your release?
I know I can't hide forever.
I was hoping you'd save me,
so I went to your house.
Here's the second question.
Tell me...
why you killed Hae Joon.
You are laughing?
Why, you...
You see, that day...
I wasn't the only one there.
That fool...
shouted at your son like this.
"Chase him!"
If only he hadn't shouted that,
your son...
wouldn't have died that day.
Who is this fool?
Who is this scumbag that got my son killed?
Detective Maeng Gyeong Tae.
Do you know him?
Here's my last question.
What do you want from me?
What do you think I'm after?
Money, of course.
Money?
Even handing you my trash would feel like a waste.
How dare you!
The pain my son experienced.
Starting today,
you'll experience it too, slowly but surely.
There's no point in running away...
because I will find you.
Every day.
Every single day, slowly.
You will experience more pain than my son did.
To the point...
that you'll think living is more painful than death.
Wait. Hold on.
Ma'am. I have something to tell her! Let me go!
Don't move!
No!
Whack him!
What?
This is...
This is Hae Joon's.
My gosh.
This...
Maeng Gyeong Tae.
Find him and bring him to me, no matter what.
Alive or dead, I don't care.
What are you doing here?
I just... I was cleaning.
Don't you dare touch it.
Get out!
Isn't that...
Hae Joon's diary?
It looks like...
Hae Joon's diary he always carried with him.
You've kept it all these years?
Why?
Do you want to say it's yours now?
I told you to get out. Did you not hear me?
You still...
haven't opened Hae Joon's diary?
He probably wrote about...
how much he resented me.
Because of me, he lived like a fugitive...
and died like that.
Enough about this.
First, take care of what I asked you to do.
The man involved in Hae Joon's death.
Maeng Gyeong Tae. Find him at once!
Ma'am.
The thing is...
I already know him.
The father...
of my ex-daughter-in-law, Maeng Gong Hee,
is Detective Maeng Gyeong Tae.
Earlier,
Ms. Audrey looked worried.
Did you...
talk about something worrisome when I wasn't there?
No.
It's just...
Sometimes, we all wonder this, you know.
"What is the most important thing in my life?"
Stuff like that.
So?
What was your conclusion?
What's really important to me?
You and Gu Reum.
Nothing else really matters.
It helped clear my head.
I won't think about things that don't really matter.
Verdict sealed.
What?
I'm anxious for some reason, though.
Don't you worry about anything.
Just hold my hand tight.
Don't get lost, Ms. Maeng Gong Hee.
(Can you pick up some formula? We've run out.)
Oh, Hong Dan says we've run out of baby formula.
I should run to the store.
No, I'll go.
Then let's go together.
The corner store should still be open.
No, just go inside...
and see Gu Reum.
I'll be back in a moment.
(Dry Cleaning, Ready for Pickup in 40 Minutes)
Ms. Chairwoman.
(Bubble Up Laundry)
What brings you to my house?
Do you know...
what your father did?
Pardon me?
Your father...
killed my son.
The person who got Dan Soo's father killed.
It was your dad!
(My Merry Marriage)
I'm worried you'd be hurt too.
I'm really sorry.
How could you do this? How?
It's an accident that happened while trying to catch a suspect.
Even if you're against it,
I won't back down.
It was all my fault.
- I got my son killed. - Ma'am!
Would that make you happy?
Grandma hasn't been able to move on since that day either.
