(Episode 53)
Was your baby Jun Soo's?
What a ridiculous thing to say?
I just saw a message Jun Soo sent you,
giving you folic acid.
Look!
Why would you look at my phone?
Don't try to feign ignorance. I saw the proof.
Is it Jun Soo's baby?
What the heck is this?
- You... - Hey.
Are you arguing in the morning again?
What is it this time?
It's nothing.
Producer Um had a misunderstanding.
What? Misunderstanding?
Don't you feel embarrassed in front of your subordinates?
Is this your way of telling us that you're at work?
Why would you go at each other's throats whenever you meet eyes?
Sir... Oh, my gosh.
- Ms. Shin... - Producer Um!
Your wedding with CEO Na Jun Soo is going well, right?
You have a good thing ahead of you.
But if you don't watch your mouth, it'd backfire on you!
What?
What in the world are you saying?
Why don't we go somewhere private and talk?
This is absurd.
Come with me now.
If you're going to argue, argue in the office!
Don't be an embarrassment to the whole building!
When did you guys do that behind everyone's back?
Was it the day you had a drink with him at a hotel bar?
We've already agreed to pretend nothing ever happened. So...
Then why did he send you that message?
I clearly told him...
that I'll take care of the baby regardless of the father.
But he won't accept it.
That's nonsense!
Fine.
It sounds like it was a mistake.
Then you could not have the baby.
Whether I have the baby or not, that's none of your business.
Of course, it's my business.
We're setting up a date for the parents to meet.
Whether your family meets or get married,
I have no interest at all.
Don't mind me and proceed with whatever you're doing.
Tell me honestly.
You're plotting to get Jun Soo using the baby as an excuse, aren't' you?
Think however you'd like.
Keep this in mind though.
The moment you open your mouth about the father of my baby,
you should know your wedding is done for.
What did you say?
Are you threatening me?
Do you think I'd give up on Jun Soo just because you're pregnant?
I can't. No, I won't.
So you better take care of that baby when I tell you nicely.
Don't regret it later.
Why did this jerk have to send me such a message then?
He's so useless.
They say make hay while the sun shines.
How about meeting this Sunday?
Let's do that.
But would your son be all right with that?
Have you talked to him?
Sun Han says...
he ignores her and embarrasses her whenever she sees him.
That's just how he is.
He's cold to me when I'm his dad.
But Jun Soo is more ambitious than you think.
Once he comes to his senses, he'd realize what's better for him.
You know we have the shareholders' meeting for DBS in early January.
It seems they'll decide which production to take over before that.
If you please my mom when our families meet up,
won't she be a great support for you?
Right.
About our YouTube channel.
We should prepare a Christmas special.
Of course, we should.
So I was thinking about inviting Ms. Kim Bo Ra as a special guest.
What? You're going to invite that ridiculous girl?
It'd be a hit if she'd come as a guest.
Whatever.
What are you waiting for? Call her before her time gets taken.
I'm going to deliver the lunchboxes to the station later,
so I'll ask her when I see her.
Hello? Director?
Hold on.
Hello?
Jae Soo, come out the back door now...
and look around carefully, so no one is watching.
Come to Byeol Coffee shop near the intersection.
What? Byeol Coffee shop?
You can't say the name of the shop!
Someone might hear you, so come quietly without telling anyone.
All right.
Goodness me, that girl.
I wonder what Jun Soo would do on Christmas Eve?
Jun Soo, what are you doing on Christmas Eve?
(Jun Soo, what are you doing on Christmas Eve?)
Hey, Bo Ra.
I'm having a party with my employees on Christmas Eve.
Wow, a party?
A start-up company sure is different.
How should I put it? It's more freewheeling.
But is the party just with you and the employees?
No, it's not.
Employees' families, friends, and their loved ones.
Anyone can attend.
Of course, you're welcome as you're in our commercial.
Really?
Then should I grace you with my presence?
Sure.
If a rising star comes, they would be ecstatic.
All right. Send me the place and time.
Yes?
Mr. Kang, what brings you here?
I came to deliver the lunchboxes. I got your lunch too.
This is our dish we'll present on "Marketaurant."
Please review it after trying it.
Thank you.
By the way,
my parents had dinner at Grandpa's last night.
Yes, Ms. Han made boiled chicken, so we all enjoyed it together.
Mr. Lee even took the wild ginseng wine out for Director Shin.
Thanks to that, Chan Sung and I enjoyed it too.
It must've gone well.
Thank you for everything you've done.
Are you?
Well, you did make a promise last time.
Could you come on the "Wonky Show"?
All right. When?
We're preparing a Christmas special.
We'll be shooting it on Christmas Eve.
Please come on the show as a special guest.
On Christmas Eve?
What should I do? I already have an appointment.
Oh, do you?
Are you meeting someone special?
I got invited to a Christmas party that Jun Soo's holding.
I was too late.
I promise I'll be on the show one day.
All right. I'll be waiting.
Thank you.
Goodness, they still have a corny place like this.
Jae Soo!
Are you from Hollywood?
Who'd know who you are?
Do you think you're still a diva?
It's not that.
My husband had been digging up about me.
He found out that you're Han Jae Soo.
What?
So?
He threatened me that he'll tell my mom...
if I don't make him the CEO of Plus Market.
Mom's in Korea right now.
Oh, my goodness.
Out of all men, why did you pick an evil man like him?
I know.
I was kicked out to study abroad...
and I was so lonely, so...
Anyway, nothing's going on between us,
but your husband must have misunderstood.
Don't come here ever again.
Don't worry.
I'll stop him however I can, so you're not put in danger, Jae Soo.
I told you not to call me Jae Soo.
Call me Eok Shim instead.
All right. Eok Shim.
But you look thinner as if you have been starved.
I've never been at ease...
ever since I came to Korea because of my husband.
He looked for his daughter without telling me as soon as he came here.
Then he met up with his ex-wife, and now, he's digging about me.
I saw his true colors here.
You're too good for him.
I must've been blinded.
Oh, you know the weather forecaster Kim Bo Ra, right?
My husband is her biological father.
I know her.
She's the granddaughter of the owner of the house I'm living in.
What?
That house was Kim Bo Ra's grandpa's house?
Yes.
It's so complicated that I have a headache whenever I mention them.
I should've known...
when his ex-wife came and told me that everything was a lie.
What did he lie about?
He told me that he came to study in the US...
after he agreed to get a divorce.
That's why I started seeing him.
But according to his ex-wife,
he cheated on her with me so he one-sidedly divorced her.
I better smack some sense into him!
I denied it back then.
But seeing the way he's behaving now,
I think what she said is right.
From the beginning,
his goal was to become the CEO of Plus Market, not me.
He wanted my background, not me.
Don't cry.
What can you do? He's still your husband.
Husband?
I've fallen out of love with him.
Cheer up.
You should go home. He might start doubting you again.
All right?
- Take a seat. - Okay.
Your office is so large. It's so cool.
Congratulations, Director.
Thank you.
I wanted to see you today...
to suggest opening up your first branch at Plus Market.
I'd love to!
It would be good to start here and gradually expand.
Of course.
I'll support you for sure and also, promote your store.
Thank you.
Then I'll trust you and give it a go.
Let's get ready to open in the new year then.
Oh, Mr. Kang Dae Ro.
What brings you here?
Hello.
I came to meet Director Shin.
Did you?
What for?
From the new year, the Wonky Box Lunch...
will open at Plus Market.
That would be difficult.
Pardon?
What do you mean?
You have an employee with an uncertain identity.
So it feels uncomfortable to have your store in our market.
You said you were looking into information about Ms. Han Eok Shim.
Did you find anything out?
I'm looking into it.
What take you so long?
Why are you covering for her when you know she's a fake?
What are you saying?
Seeing how you're so surprised, I must be right.
Ms. Han Eok Shim's brother is Han Jae Soo.
And that Han Jae Soo is your stepdad. Am I right?
Casting a person who is reported to be dead...
and who even disguised his identity?
Isn't that too risky?
If this is revealed, he'd be reprimanded by the media.
What are you trying to say?
Don't think about opening a store at Plus Market.
Director Shin must've proceeded without notifying me.
But not a chance.
You're home.
You're here early?
Aunt, what do I do?
I couldn't stay in the office as I was so angry.
Why? What is it?
Well, apparently, Ms. Shin...
has Jun Soo's baby.
Oh, my gosh!
I can't believe this.
Are you sure?
How did you find out?
I confirmed it with Ms. Shin herself.
Jun Soo even sent her folic acid so he'd be a good father.
How could this happen?
I met CEO Na Seung Jin because of our families meeting,
but he seemed clueless.
He wouldn't know about it.
What do I do, Aunt?
What the heck is this when we set up a date on Sunday?
So? Are they going to get married?
Ms. Shin said they've agreed to pretend it never happened.
She says she'll raise the baby on her own. Does this make sense?
I can't watch this.
I'll go and crush her.
Aunt, she's no pushover.
She threatened me that if I tell anyone about this...
that marrying Jun Soo would be off the table for me.
I can't believe her!
Why would she have a baby when she won't get married?
You should've told her to give up the baby!
I did.
But she said she'll have the baby and raise it responsibly!
If she's impossible to talk to,
I should meet her parents.
Mrs. Lee.
- Hey. - I'm back.
It's the school holiday starting today.
You must be happy.
This...
is my school life report card.
Is it?
Should I have a look?
"She was introverted before but recently have become social..."
"and gets along well with her friends."
Byeo Ri, you must get along with your friends now.
Yes, I have many friends now.
Since I don't go to school now,
I'll look after the shop when I have time.
You should have a nap sometimes.
Just hearing you say that makes me feel energized.
What a good girl you are.
Welcome...
Why are you here?
Don't you know?
Byeo Ri, go home and have some snacks.
- All right. - Here.
Byeo Ri? She must be the little sister.
What brings you here?
You should teach your daughter some self-respect!
She had drinks...
at a hotel bar with the guy Kim Bo Ra had a scandal with.
And now she's pregnant?
What did you say?
Didn't you know because she's not your biological daughter?
You must've cared less about her not coming home.
You should watch your mouth.
How dare you insult her?
You're finally showing your true colors.
Also,
she had an abortion not long ago,
so enough with your rubbish and get lost!
Are you kidding me?
She must've lied to you about getting an abortion.
She's hopeless.
My niece confirmed from Ms. Shin that she's pregnant today.
What?
Your stepdaughter Shin Ah Ri...
must be putting on a show to get Jun Soo using the baby.
But tell her to dream on!
You know nothing about Ah Ri.
Persuade your daughter, so she'd get an abortion!
Unless she wants to hear that she seduced somebody's fiance...
and become a single mother for the rest of her life!
Don't you dare slander my daughter!
Kim Won Tae and you...
must be making things up in your favor.
Get out.
Get out of my shop!
How dare she try to get a man with the baby as an excuse?
I'm warning you.
I'm going to stomp and crush...
anything that gets in the way of Sun Han's wedding!
Mom, why did that woman come here?
I haven't been seeing my biological dad recently.
Is there a problem because Dad had become...
an executive director?
No.
If it's not that...
Did Ah Ri and Producer Um get into a huge fight?
Did she come because of Ah Ri?
Ask Ah Ri yourself.
Did she tell Producer Um she'd quit because she's pregnant?
No, who'd come here for that?
That's strange.
Hey, Ah Ri.
What?
Producer Um's aunt came to the flower shop just now to see Mom.
Do you have any clue why?
Mom seems to know something,
but she told me to ask you instead of telling me.
I'm busy right now. Talk to you later.
What do I do?
Mom would've found out all about it.
About who the father is too.
Ah Ri, about the shooting of Mr. Kang going to dig deodeok.
Should we schedule it for early next week?
Ms. Shin.
Yes?
Right.
I'll give Mr. Kang a call later to let him know.
Is Director Kim going to report me?
No.
He wants me to cancel opening Wonky Box Lunch in the supermarket.
Oh, my. Dear me.
It seems that I am standing in your way.
Rather,
he seems to be wary of Director Shin getting a better work performance.
You know, their relationship is sour.
But I don't want you to suffer damage because of me.
No, not at all.
Director Kim is trying to use our weakness to his advantage,
so that gets me.
But we'd have many options other than Plus Market.
Don't worry.
Goodness me.
Hello.
I heard your mother came in from the States.
Yes.
Since you mention it, I met...
CEO Na at lunch and set the meeting of the two families for Sunday.
Did you hear it?
I did.
But you must be coming back from somewhere.
I went to Pieora Flower Shop.
To Hae Shim's shop?
Why would you go there?
Exactly.
I never wanted to see her again, but something came up.
Goodness. I heard Joong Han got back to work.
Did something happen between the two men?
No,
it was regarding your son.
Jun Soo?
What do you mean?
Please ask him yourself.
Oh, my.
My gosh. The salmon melts in my mouth.
Salmons keep the brain healthy too, Mr. Lee.
Mr. Lee's son-in-law brought this, so enjoy it.
We have the Christmas special episode tomorrow.
But Ms. Kim won't be on the show. What's going to happen, Dae Ro?
Why? Is Bo Ra not coming on the show?
Yes. Jun Soo invited her to a party at Daybreak.
Then have Byeo Ri come.
She's a good singer.
Whenever I listen to her singing,
all the trouble in the world seems to go away.
Goodness. I wasn't expecting that of you, Mr. Lee.
You're talking some sense.
Having Byeo Ri as a special guest sounds nice.
Right. Let's invite her.
Okay.
Make sure to pay her.
Of course, we will.
I'll be very generous.
Where have you been all day, Ji Ran?
I set a date for Sun Han's family meeting with her future in-laws.
And I had some things to take care of.
So, did you decide on a date?
It's going to be Sunday.
But Mom,
I don't think my sister can come when Sun Han gets married.
So should Won Tae and I sit at the parents' table?
What?
In that case, rather than him being the director of Plus Market,
sitting there as the CEO...
would be more encouraging for Sun Han, right?
Why would you sit at the seat for Sun Ha's parents?
I should sit there.
Yes, of course.
It's you who raised Sun Han.
So you are very deserving.
Does it keep weighing on your mind?
Is it because of her?
It turns out...
she lied to me.
She said she got an operation,
but it wasn't true.
Pardon?
Then what do you plan to do?
To think...
that I have a baby,
I feel distraught.
Do you plan to be responsible for the baby?
Could I...
become a father?
Ah Ri.
Where are you?
I'm in the office writing up a script.
Did you...
lie to me?
You said you got an abortion. Was it a lie?
I'm sorry.
I was at the hospital,
but I couldn't bring myself to do it.
The father...
is Jun Soo, isn't he?
That doesn't mean anything.
I'm going to raise the baby on my own.
When I went to see him,
he shamelessly said he didn't do anything to be responsible for.
How could you both do this?
Don't defy me.
I will look into a hospital again.
Mom, I'm not willing to do that.
Be quiet.
You don't deserve to have a say in this.
I could never see you live as a single mom.
I met the woman next door.
And she said something weird.
What is it?
It seems she went to Hae Shim's flower shop because of Jun Soo.
Because of Jun Soo?
Yes.
I'm back.
Jun Soo, sit down.
Okay.
What is it?
Jun Soo, we have an important plan this Sunday.
Make some time.
What plans?
Well, you see,
Producer Um's grandma next door came back from the US.
She's the owner of Plus Market and a major shareholder of DBS.
She's super rich.
And?
Wouldn't it benefit you to know her as you're in business too?
So Producer Um arranged this special occasion.
Will you make me have an engagement with this excuse?
It's not an engagement.
It's a meeting of families of the groom and bride over a meal.
I'm not going.
No, I can't.
Hey. Be rational about this.
Can't you see how it would benefit your business?
I...
became a dad.
What?
What did you say?
(No Matter What)
What is that?
Why would she send you such a designer bag?
You have to listen to me on this.
I'm going to have the baby.
Did Ah Ri say that? That you are the father?
What if she goes to see her and causes a scene?
Where are you, Ms. Shin? It's an emergency.
- Hello? - It's Jun Soo's mom.
