(Episode 47)
Thank you for trusting me.
I was more scared of...
you being disappointed in me and thinking I'm a liar...
than getting scolded by Grandpa.
Who am I to point the finger at you?
That's never going to happen.
My closest friend...
died before my eyes.
We studied together.
He'd help me out a lot, and I was always thankful to him.
That day, after class,
we were eating at a restaurant near the university.
But of all places,
an armed thief...
entered that restaurant while he was being chased by the cops.
I was really flustered and startled.
And my friend suddenly grabbed me...
and pushed me underneath the table.
And?
Once I finally got to my senses,
my friend was covered in blood.
He got shot...
while trying to protect me.
Then...
did your friend...
I took him to the hospital.
But the doctor couldn't save him.
He was...
He was such a precious friend.
But because of me...
Because of me,
he died right in front of my eyes.
Meanwhile, I tried so hard to live.
I still wanted to succeed.
But I couldn't do anything.
I couldn't stop thinking of my friend.
I couldn't even go to school.
I helped my friend's dad run his dry cleaners business.
And I traveled here and there...
with nothing but a backpack. That's how I lived.
I just tried hard to get by.
I think...
I understand how you must've felt.
If it weren't for Yeol Mu,
I would've lost my mind...
and wandered all over the place.
No one knows the pain...
of having to lose the person you love overnight.
It's hard to know if you haven't been through it.
I really had no idea.
I was always so hard on you...
and neglected you.
I'm sorry.
I guess you know how mean you were to me.
It must've been so hard on you.
I'm really sorry.
You're making it hard for me to pity myself.
You should go home now.
Your family must be worried.
Yes, I should.
You didn't drive, did you?
I drank.
Then I'll help you grab a cab.
Ms. Geum...
(Nakwon Inn)
Wait for me.
(Nakwon Inn)
So you're saying...
you have no idea when, where and how...
this briefcase got switched with yours?
That's right. I was extremely shocked...
when I opened the briefcase a few days ago.
Then the actual owner...
must be looking all over the place for this briefcase.
I bet he's bedridden.
My gosh, how much is all this?
This alone probably costs more than 50,000 dollars.
It's worth that much?
The price of gold has increased, so it might be worth a lot more.
I wonder what kind of person the owner is...
to have had a briefcase full of gold and cash.
Let me tell you what I think.
The fact that this briefcase came to us...
through Mr. Choi...
tells me that the entire universe...
is trying to help us.
We're all connected to each other by fate.
And the same goes for materials.
So I think we were actually destined...
to come across this briefcase.
Therefore, the universe might be telling us...
to equally share all the cash and gold bars...
between ourselves.
How dare you?
Don't try to be sly.
Are you saying we should all become thieves?
Mama, strictly speaking, we're not being thieves.
I'm just saying...
we're not exactly obligated to return it to the owner.
That's the same thing.
I was just kidding.
I just thought we could all have a laugh.
Then what was inside your briefcase, Mr. Choi?
Nothing much.
I just had some miscellaneous stuff.
It's cold. You should go home.
I'll go once I see you leave in a cab.
Thanks.
My gosh, I didn't even do much.
Today,
my grandpa, mom, and everyone else in my family...
just got angry at me for forging my diploma.
No one actually asked why I did something like that.
You're the only person who understood...
and trusted me unconditionally.
Thank you.
It's not something you need to thank me for.
So you can stop thanking me.
Ms. Geum.
Can you please hold my hand?
I think...
that will cheer me up.
Well...
There's nothing difficult about holding your hand.
My gosh.
If you need me to hold your hand to feel better,
I'll hold your hand as much as you want me to.
Yeol Mu...
and I will root for you.
- Thank you. - Cheer up.
Your cab is here.
I'll go now.
I'm home.
My gosh, what's all this?
It's exactly what you think it is. Cash and gold.
My gosh, how much is all this worth?
Where did you get this?
Does that mean the briefcase belongs to Yeol Mu's dad?
What should I do?
If I tell her the truth, she'll get shocked.
My gosh, what am I supposed to do?
Is that really not yours?
My goodness, why won't you believe me?
If it was mine, I would've said so.
Why would I lie to you?
Okay, fine.
Then what about the documents in your briefcase?
You said they were evidence of corruption within Guseong Group.
How did you come by to have those?
Well,
Wang Sam and his men...
raised all that money dealing in dirty business.
There are a lot of people who they ended up hurting.
I sought out each and every one of them...
and collected the evidence I needed.
Are you sure?
Unbelievable.
Didn't I tell you...
that Wang Sam...
will soon be on his knees begging for your forgiveness?
I'm not one to say anything that I don't mean.
That punk!
Your doctor said you shouldn't get worked up.
Please calm down.
You're only hurting yourself by getting angry.
After all I did to raise him,
he shoves...
a knife in my back?
That imbecile.
Why are you kneeling? What for?
I won't ask you to forgive me.
I'm sorry.
I won't believe anything that comes out...
of that sly mouth of yours.
Remove yourself from my sight.
Father,
he told you what happened to him in the States.
Please consider the circumstances...
- and ease up... - What?
It's the same for everyone.
We all have sob stories.
Why are you making excuses...
for something that happened because of your incompetence?
Rather than putting my company...
in the hands of someone ungrateful,
I would donate...
all of my shares to a foundation.
- But Father... - Shut it!
I thought I was raising a tiger, but you were nothing but a cat.
In Sook,
you are in no position to say anything, so keep quiet.
How dare you?
How much of a fool did you see me as?
As long as you didn't get caught,
you thought you could...
take this company from me?
I never thought of it like that. Please believe me.
I'm done listening to your lies, so leave.
Get out.
You and your mother both!
I don't want to see either of you, so get lost.
Yelling like this will not help your condition.
I'll let you know once he calms down,
so please leave for now.
Please, the both of you.
Come on.
No one is to enter!
Seek Eun Ji's approval first.
Please leave.
We'll let you rest, Father.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Would Grandpa kick Hae Jun out of the company?
You know your grandfather.
He'd never let Hae Jun stay after all this humiliation.
This must be a gift...
from your father up above.
Dad?
This happened right after you went to see him.
You're right. Dad!
He's doing this much to look out for us,
so don't you let him down.
You must be on high alert.
Don't be too upset about it.
You know how much...
your grandfather believed and trusted in you.
His response is completely reasonable.
I would've done the same.
Still,
how can you stab us in the back like this?
You're my whole life,
so how could you do this to me?
I'm sorry, but...
I hope you can understand...
that I had no other choice.
You lived your whole life...
dreaming of me taking over Guseong Group.
However, that incident paralyzed me.
I know...
I'm your whole life...
which is why I couldn't let you down.
I should've been more attentive,
so I'm sorry.
I'm sorry too.
How can your degree be a big deal...
when you almost died...
thousands of miles away?
All I wanted was to become the leader of Guseong...
and make you happy.
I'm sorry.
It's too soon to be disappointed.
We'll do everything we can...
to subside your grandfather's anger...
and make you his successor.
Nothing has changed.
In life,
we all lie about a few things.
Have you never lied before?
Even I lied to Mama,
I mean to Ms. Bok, about us dating.
That's a completely different case.
It's not because that person is bad.
In some cases,
we're left in a situation where lying becomes the best option.
Just think about it.
A close friend...
he studied with died right before his eyes.
Of course, he'd lose it.
How could he possibly go back to his life so quickly?
Only a psychopath would be able to.
He still came back...
without getting into bigger trouble.
That alone is something to be grateful for.
Don't you agree, sweetheart?
It must be hard looking after Father.
It's not like I'm doing much.
I apologize for my actions.
You being this way is scaring me.
You see, I only followed Do Hee's lead...
since she was too against the idea.
That's not how I felt though.
I know it's a bit late, but I'd like to apologize.
You might not understand this...
because you don't have children of your own.
I lost my husband at a young age,
and Hae Jun was all I had to live for.
If he's thrown out and loses his chance to be the successor,
I'll have no reason to live anymore.
I can understand that.
My gosh. I'm grateful just hearing you say that.
Eun Ji, I thought you were only beautiful on the outside,
but you're more beautiful on the inside.
Could...
I ask for a favor?
A favor?
Please...
put in a good word regarding my son.
I will never forget your kindness.
What right do I have to say such things?
Of course, you have the right.
If you marry my father-in-law,
that'll make you Hae Jun's step-grandmother.
His grandmother?
You are in terms of kinship.
Your future step-grandson is in trouble.
Shouldn't you come to his aid?
Then are you saying...
that you approve...
of my relationship with your father-in-law?
Who am I to approve anything?
Father is in love with you.
As his daughter-in-law, I should be happy for him.
Actually, I should even help you two get married.
What nonsense are you spewing?
Hold on.
You've got to be kidding me.
Has the deal with Hae Jun shocked you into insanity?
How are you even considering helping her marry Father?
It's what Father truly wants.
As his daughter-in-law,
shouldn't we obey his wishes?
This coming from the person...
who would rather die than to see them get married?
What changed your mind?
I said no such thing.
Since you were utterly against the two of them,
I slightly took your side for a moment.
Slightly took my side?
This must be a joke.
I get it though.
Considering what happened, you'd have to be insane...
to be in the right mind.
Stop.
Stop? What on earth?
You can't enter his room.
My sweetheart needs to rest,
so no one may enter.
Hold on.
Who are you to stop me from seeing him? Are you kidding me?
You can't enter his room without Ms. Bang's permission.
That was Father's orders.
Who gives you the right to act like our mother-in-law already?
You can't tell me whether or not I can enter his room!
Do Hee, please show the least courtesy to Eun Ji.
What did you say?
She is Father's official girlfriend after all.
She may be younger than we are,
but that doesn't mean you can treat her so rudely.
Thank you for saying that, In Sook.
You don't need to thank me. I'm only doing the right thing.
What are you two doing now?
Are you serious?
Hello.
Hi.
I just wanted to call you.
Did President Na scold you a lot?
Yes.
It totally woke me up.
Did you get hit too?
What?
I'm wondering if President Na lost his temper...
and swung a golf club at you or something.
I'm a bit worried.
Are you okay?
It's no big deal.
My right arm is broken, and my left leg is bruised.
I scraped my forehead in the same place as the last time.
Did you see a doctor? Did you go to the hospital?
What did the doctor say?
I'm joking.
You scared the life out of me.
You're so silly sometimes.
Thank you for earlier.
Because you comforted me and cheered me up,
I could handle everything a lot better.
You've...
given me a lot of courage so far.
I'm only paying you back.
There's no need to get touched.
Thank you for...
holding my hand too.
When did I hold your hand?
You did before I got in the taxi.
You're being ridiculous.
I never did that.
You said you and Yeol Mu wanted to give me energy...
and held my hand tight.
Who?
- You did. - When?
- Earlier. - Where?
In front of the taxi.
My goodness.
Well...
You're just making that up.
I never did anything like that.
Gosh, are you pretending it didn't happen?
Whatever.
I don't know what you're talking about.
Hang in there, Mr. Na.
I have to go.
Why is she so shy?
He's being all silly again.
Maybe...
he is fine, Yeol Mu.
It's time to sleep now.
Bak Ha.
(Episode 48)
Gosh, I was just about to wake you up.
Woo Jae, come and have a seat.
Woo Jae, you don't look so good.
What's that?
It's a passport that was in...
the briefcase.
There was a passport in the briefcase?
I picked it up from the ground.
So the briefcase belonged to someone.
Why are you showing us this now?
It must've been his.
The briefcase must've belonged to him.
Let me see.
Hold on.
Wait, this is a photo of my late husband.
- What? - What on earth...
are you talking about?
I'm sure of it.
This is a photo of my late husband.
Is his name Yang Tae Won?
No,
it's Kang Jin Gu.
The name on that passport is completely different.
Maybe it's just someone who resembles him?
No, I'm sure of it!
How can I not recognize my late husband?
It is...
Yeol Mu's father.
How do you know it's Yeol Mu's father?
On the day of the fire,
I was in the storage unit too.
What are you saying?
I wanted to tell you, but I didn't have the courage.
I'm sorry, Bak Ha.
I'm really sorry.
What on earth are you talking about?
Why were you even at that storage unit?
The day before...
the KPGA event took place at the Guseong golf course,
I went to Anmyeon Island.
Don't look behind you and just walk.
My mom has someone trailing me.
I'm dead if she finds out about you.
I met Hae Ri that night.
Her mother had someone trailing her,
so we hid in the storage unit.
That's when we met Yeol Mu's father.
- Who are you? - He mistook us for thieves...
who were after the briefcase.
He must be the man my mother hired.
We mistook him for the man...
that Hae Ri's mother hired and there was an altercation.
Just then,
a candle dropped to the floor setting the place on flames.
My gosh!
What do we do?
Don't just stand there and help me put this out!
Where's the water?
I opened a water container to put out the fire,
but it contained fuel instead.
The flames erupted even more.
- My briefcase. - I persuaded him to leave.
Don't be ridiculous. We must leave!
He stayed behind to get his briefcase.
Hae Ri, stay with me.
Hae Ri!
We must go! We'll all die at this rate.
Go without me then.
Hae Ri passed out from the smoke,
so I had to leave with her in my arms.
He won't make it in there.
I tried to go back inside to put out the fire.
But the fire had spread fiercely.
And I didn't have the courage.
- Don't go. - I couldn't go back inside.
Woo Jae.
Please don't go.
No.
I should've gone back inside and brought him out.
It's all my fault.
I was a coward.
I'm sorry, Bak Ha.
I know an apology isn't enough.
But I'm still really sorry.
How...
How could you tell me that now?
So you just...
lied to me?
I tried to tell you numerous times.
But I didn't have the courage.
Even after you saw...
how tormented I was?
You should've told me...
why my husband...
ended up dying in a fire.
I didn't know you could be so cruel.
I don't know what else to say to you other than to apologize.
I'm really sorry, Bak Ha.
How could you do this to me?
My goodness.
Bak Ha.
So that's why Woo Jae...
was always so kind...
and caring to both Bak Ha and Yeol Mu.
He was so kind to them like they were his own family.
I really can't believe this.
- Bak Ha. - Let me go.
I would wake up in the middle of the night...
not being able to understand why he suddenly left me and Yeol Mu.
Didn't you feel sorry every time you saw me?
I'm sorry.
It's all my fault. I won't try to make any excuses.
I guess I was wrong about you.
I'm so disappointed.
- Bak Ha. - Don't ever...
call my name again.
How is this even possible?
To be honest, on the very same day,
I was at a street stall near the warehouse that caught fire.
I was introducing Eun Ji to her blind date.
- What? - What?
We were also nearby.
Why were you there?
We were planning to take sleeping pills...
and drive our car into the sea.
But we stopped because of the fire.
My goodness.
You went so far away to die.
I can't believe you went that far.
But how did the briefcase end up in your hands...
when it was inside the burning storage?
You couldn't have gone inside yourself to get it.
I know, right?
My family gravesite is on Anmyeon Island.
And I was on my way back from there.
I also saw a fire from far away,
but I didn't even go near the storage.
This is so creepy.
That means we were all nearby...
on the day of the fire.
Then we all met each other at Nakwon Inn.
You're right.
What a crazy connection.
The dashcam.
Our car was parked near the warehouse...
on the day of the fire.
I'm sure there's a recording of what happened that day.
Honey, where did you put the memory card?
What?
After we went to the used car dealership and sold our car,
they gave us our memory card back. Where did you put it?
I don't know.
I wonder where I put it.
You took it and put it in your bag.
I did?
I don't remember.
My goodness.
Honey, wait for me.
Once we find the dashcam memory card,
we'll be able to find out what happened that day.
Yes, you're right.
I hope they find it.
It's not here, honey.
You put it in your bag that day and brought it home.
Where did you put it after we came home?
I don't know.
Where did I put it?
Honey, wait.
Don't get flustered. Calm down and think.
I don't know why I can't remember.
But I wouldn't have thrown it away.
Did you find it?
Are you still looking for it?
We looked everywhere, but we can't find it.
Did you throw it away?
I doubt it since she doesn't easily throw things away.
It's not like the memory card has feet.
Where could it be?
Did you check the refrigerator?
No, we didn't.
Really?
Why did you put tissue in here?
- What? - What's this?
- What's this ball of tissue? - Let me see.
Here it is.
This is it.
- What? - My gosh.
What was that doing in the refrigerator?
Women tend to do this when they age.
They become absent-minded and sometimes...
leave their belongings in the fridge.
Then they forget about it and look for their stuff all day.
Let's check what's inside.
I'll bring my laptop.
- Okay. - Give me that.
- Let's go to the living room. - Okay.
My goodness, what's that on your head?
Is that for Father to see?
Must you be so mean?
It's because I have a headache.
Do you want some painkillers?
You want me to take painkillers on an empty stomach?
Gosh, you startled me.
What is the matter with you?
You shouldn't yell when you have a headache.
You're the one who's been provoking me ever since yesterday.
Why do you keep doing that?
Mom, calm down.
- Hello, Father. - Hi, Grandpa.
How do you feel, Father?
He's doing a lot better than yesterday.
I see.
Hae Jun and I couldn't sleep a wink.
He spent a long time self-reflecting on what he did.
Hae Jun.
You stabbed me in the back.
It's utterly unforgivable.
I'm sorry. I'm ashamed of myself.
Father.
- Let me finish! - Okay.
But Eun Ji is right.
Your friend suddenly died right in front of you,
so I'm sure it was hard to focus on your studies.
I can understand that.
I can't believe these two.
So...
I want you to go back and finish your MBA.
Not one that's a fake.
I want you to bring me a legitimate one.
How long do you need?
Your grandfather is giving you a second chance.
There's no need to think about it. Just leave as soon as possible.
Do your best to study...
and come back with your degree.
Then you can finally become the president of the company.
Can you give me some time to think about it?
What's there to think about?
Your grandfather is being very generous right now.
Listen.
If you don't want to see me bite my tongue and die,
go back to the States as soon as possible.
Do you understand?
Someone keeps walking back and forth,
but I can't tell who it is because of the bad video quality.
Where's Bak Ha?
I don't know.
She probably needs some time alone.
I'm sorry.
I'm too ashamed to even be here.
Don't be too hard on yourself.
It's not like you did it on purpose.
You were flustered and made a mistake.
He's right.
It's natural that you thought there was water in the water bottle.
Who would've thought there was fuel inside?
No.
I should've been braver.
No. With a big fire like that,
it's only natural to try and save yourself first.
It's all just a twist of fate.
No one is to blame.
Gosh, you frustrate me.
Why didn't you tell me what happened?
By the way,
didn't you say you had a computer expert friend?
I do.
(Hand Wash Zone)
- Hello, ma'am. - Oh, no.
I'm sorry to tell you this,
but Ms. Geum didn't come to work today.
How come?
I think she had some family matters to take care of.
Leave your keys in your car and wait for a moment in the lounge.
I need to finish up washing the car before you.
- Sure. - All right.
The person you have called is unavailable right now.
What's wrong? Did something happen?
(Yang Tae Won)
What happened?
What's this passport?
And the briefcase full of cash?
What were you doing...
without me knowing?
Can you improve the video quality?
The video is not that long,
so I'll be done in about a couple of hours.
A couple of hours?
Okay.
It's me, In Sook.
I have something to tell you in person.
Right now?
I didn't sleep well last night, so my makeup is all cakey.
Here he comes.
Poong Ki! I'm over here!
Poong Ki!
Hold on.
Oh, my. Someone could see us.
You're embarrassing me.
Why would you be embarrassed?
I've even kissed you on the mouth.
Goodness, what if someone hears you?
Who would? There's no one else here.
Oh, my.
What are you doing? Gosh, it's hot.
Canned coffee?
To keep it warm, I held it in my chest...
and rushed here.
Can you feel my warmth?
This clearly isn't your first time. Are you a player?
Yes, I am.
I don't want to be an amateur in front of you.
I'd rather be a perfect player.
You and your words.
Let me feel your warmth then.
That's pretty warm.
I have something to discuss with you.
What is it?
My son is probably going back to the US...
to finish his studies.
What about the CEO election?
That'll have to wait.
Then what will happen to us?
You said our relationship would be a secret until he became the CEO.
I think we have to go on like this for two more years.
Don't you think that's too cruel?
Not two months, but two years?
Are we supposed to keep meeting in secret?
I'm a red-blooded young man.
I do understand your position,
but considering the situation...
I'm sorry to interrupt,
but I'm having second thoughts about our relationship.
Does that mean...
you're considering breaking up with me?
Maybe.
Poong Ki.
Obviously, you consider me as nothing more than a spare tire.
I'm deeply disappointed.
I'll be going now.
You can't be serious.
What is this?
If he really loves me,
shouldn't he be able to wait 20 years and not just 2?
What's going on?
After kissing me and stealing my heart,
he can't just disappear like that.
What am I supposed to do?
You jerk!
Then...
Does Father want to wait for Hae Jun to get his MBA...
and make him the CEO?
This is unfair.
(New Message)
Look at these two.
All lovey-dovey.
Are you going out?
My sweetheart is getting a car for me.
I'm going out to choose one.
Goodness, I can't believe this.
Hold on.
He never gives his daughters-in-law more than 100 dollars,
and he buys a car for his girlfriend?
He even gave me an unlimited credit card.
He really gave that to you?
Are you sure you didn't steal it from him?
What do you take me for?
This is driving me crazy.
After looking at the cars, we're going for dinner.
We won't come home until late.
Wait.
When did In Sook and you...
become a team?
Stay out of our family matters.
I, of course, have a say in my sweetheart's family matters.
See you.
Hey! Stop calling him sweetheart.
How many times do I have to tell you?
Did President Na send you here?
Yes, that's right.
Did he call you?
His secretary called me and asked me...
to show you around.
- I see. - Come this way, please.
Have a look at this model.
It's very popular with ladies these days.
I'm sure you'll love the design.
Try sitting in the driver's seat.
Try starting it as well.
Oh, my.
You're so fun.
Can you take a photo of me?
- Of course. - Use the app.
Here we go.
If the briefcase did get switched,
it must have been on Anmyeon Island.
Was it at that time?
Gosh, look at that huge fire.
I hope no one is in there.
Gosh, my stomach.
Did I eat too much? My stomach is suddenly aching.
Why would you be in such a hurry on your way out of the bathroom?
You're leaving without apologizing?
Hey, watch where you're going!
That's right. It's him.
That's what happened.
Why didn't I think of this earlier?
It's all in that memory card or whatever it's called.
Let's wait for Poong Ki and Woo Jae to come home.
Why was...
my husband's passport in that bag?
And why did it have a different name?
I just don't understand.
Neither do I.
Did he really get a fake passport...
to flee?
He would never leave...
me and Yeol Mu behind.
I know that.
But sometimes, people change...
according to the situation.
We're not that reliable.
Unfortunately, we're not that strong.
So you're saying...
Of course not.
What I said isn't about your late husband.
No matter what the video shows,
you should accept the truth. That's all I'm saying.
All right?
(Nakwon Inn)
It's been a while.
Have you been well?
Hi.
What's with that car? Is it yours?
Mr. Na offered to buy me a car,
so I went to the dealership.
I took one out for a spin.
Want to go for a ride?
You speak words of luxury. We don't have time for that.
Why? Is something up?
I'll tell you later. We're a bit busy right now. Let's go.
Did something happen?
Here.
Play the darn thing.
Right.
Who's that?
Jin Gu...
Jin Gu... It's Jin Gu!
Pack up a bag and head to the US immediately.
I never told you that I'd go, Mom.
Please let my son go.
Ms. Oh, what are you doing?
If my kneeling isn't enough, I'll even beg with my hands.
We'll tell your mother first.
She'll kill us once she finds out.
Let's have the wedding and go on our honeymoon.
Hae Ri, what are you doing in a wedding dress?
I was wondering if you remember me.
You still have my briefcase?
Who are you?
You said you weren't involved.
Why did you lie to me?
