(Episode 99)
Thank you.
This is really big.
My husband looks handsome.
I'm so happy.
What are you doing there?
Where were you? I missed you.
Don't you know where I was?
I took a trip into your heart.
You make me love you so much.
Come here.
It tickles.
Mom, what are you doing?
This fell off.
I don't think I can fix this.
Why don't we ask Mr. Seo to come and fix it next time?
When is he coming again?
He promised to come, but why hasn't he visited yet?
He's a bit busy these days.
Do you also like him, Jung Min?
Yes, a lot.
I like him a lot too.
So I want him to be with us.
I'll make sure that happens no matter what.
Hae Sol.
She doesn't seem to have a fever anymore. She seems a lot better.
Jung Min also looks a lot better these days.
His platelet count came back to normal,
and things have been going well with his immunotherapy.
Mom, can I go play with Hae Sol?
You can't go anywhere else, okay?
Stay in the hospital room.
Can you take care of Jung Min for a bit?
Come on.
Did you find what Director Choi asked you to look for?
I know you got bought off by her,
but are you even working as her minion now?
She's not someone we can fight against.
We're no match against a person like her.
So what if they fight over...
who gets to take over Seorin Group?
Who are you to get involved in that feud?
Are you trying to protect Seo Jung Min?
It's time you wake up, you crazy stalker.
All I'm trying to do is to protect my boss.
I'm going to get rid of everyone who gets in his way...
and tries to mess with him.
Do you think...
that will make him show any kind of interest in you?
A heartache is another form of hope.
I bet you didn't know that.
That jerk must've been nice to you.
How dare you call him a jerk?
A punk like you doesn't deserve to talk about him that way.
You can hit on him all you want, but it's going to be useless.
Our life depends on the choice you make now.
So just find what Director Choi asked for.
She promised to stay quiet about what we did...
and even agreed to pay us.
So just do what she asks...
and take the money.
I'm sure you need a lot of money to pay for your kid's hospital fees.
By the way, who's the father?
It smells great.
I cooked dried pollack soup, your favorite, babe.
"Babe"?
I asked you to call me "Honey".
But it sounds so awkward.
Why?
I really love that word.
I don't remember much about my mother.
But I think it was when I was four.
I still remember very clearly...
how my mom used to call my dad "Honey".
Honey.
What do you think?
I'm finally starting to realize that you're my wife.
I won't be eating alone anymore, so I'll digest food a lot better.
I should've married you a lot faster.
I'm honored that you chose me.
Did you get hurt?
I cut my finger while shaving.
Give me that. I'll do it for you.
Gosh, it must've hurt.
This is so upsetting.
We should disinfect the wound first.
I already did. I just need to wrap a Band-Aid around it.
Gosh.
What?
Being loved by you makes me happy.
I'm also happy that I fell in love with a man...
who knows how to love.
It's time to add the tofu.
There we go.
Do you want to try it?
Try it.
Careful.
- What do you think? - It tastes amazing.
We have no green onions.
It's fine. It tastes great already.
No, let's go grocery shopping after we eat breakfast.
Your aunt and other family elders are coming over for dinner.
I chose the menu,
but I don't have a lot of time to cook.
You don't need to cook anything fancy.
It's our first time treating them to dinner after we got married.
So I want to cook them a nice meal.
I'll be able to show off my cooking skills...
and get to earn brownie points from your family.
Thank you for trying so hard.
You're so kind and wise.
And I thank you so much...
for making me reconcile with my aunt.
You chose to reconcile with her.
I'm so proud of you for making the right choice.
I wasn't happy with her, but she's still my family.
Plus, my aunt also agreed to take a step back.
- Hello, ma'am. - Hey, Mr. Kim.
You've lost so much weight during the past few days.
Is it because you work day and night?
Ma'am, this is the machine that you asked for,
an unmanned production line for cosmetic products.
It's 90 percent ready.
And we're trying to improve it...
to reduce the defect rate.
So this is the bio-degradable eco-friendly cosmetic balls?
Yes, that's right.
Aside from this,
can you show me the first baby products for the new line?
My goodness.
This is perfect for my precious babies.
We only used the best ingredients.
Of course.
Mr. Kim, I must say, I'm a great businesswoman.
We're going through a fourth industrial revolution.
So it won't be long before the cosmetics industry...
starts implementing AI to produce products.
Don't you agree?
You're always ahead of your time.
Yes.
Okay, good.
We're going to start our launch with our baby products.
So make sure the quality is impeccable.
We'll make sure to meet the date of the launch...
with the best quality products possible.
Just a second.
Hello?
Why didn't you come home last night?
I was busy enjoying my Friday night at a club.
I understand that you're busy having fun all the time,
but I told you to sleep at home.
Where are you right now?
We're going to have dinner with Jung Min and his wife tonight.
So hurry up and go to a sauna...
and get rid of the smell of alcohol.
Okay.
All your aunts and uncles will be there.
So don't embarrass me, okay?
You're drinking again?
You've been drinking every day...
ever since Ji Eun's wedding, Mom.
Be quiet.
Being drunk like this isn't going to solve anything.
You should choose if you're going to live with Dad or Mr. Kang.
I'm not going to live with anyone.
What about Mr. Kang? He packed up and left.
Haven't you heard from him yet?
Is he still not picking up?
You rude brat.
You used to call him your stepfather.
But now he's back to being Mr. Kang?
Why would I call him my stepfather when my dad's still alive?
That's not the point. I'm talking about how you treat him.
I get that you're angry and upset at me...
for not telling you...
that your dad was still alive.
But Mr. Kang was nothing but nice to you.
How could you not even call him and ask him if he's okay?
Ji Eun called him when she went on her honeymoon.
That doesn't mean you can't do the same.
The entire family is trying so hard to comfort Mr. Kang.
But what about Dad?
I don't want to take Mr. Kang's side and make things worse for Dad.
Why are you talking about taking sides?
I'm not asking you to take anyone's side.
Mom.
It's only right for you to live with Dad.
You guys aren't even divorced.
If you live with Mr. Kang, that'd be considered adultery.
I can't believe you just said that to me.
So make up your mind already.
I'm not going to live with anyone.
And I'm going to move out of this house.
But we have nowhere else to go.
Then why don't we move to Jung Min's studio?
The three of us can live there.
Let's do that. The three of us can live there together.
Mom.
The fact that I'm still alive even after the funeral...
means someone took me from the ICU...
while I was still unconscious.
Are you not going to tell me what happened?
I don't know anything.
Ji Eun blamed herself for the accident.
She fainted and was bedridden for days.
And Young Eun never went inside because she was scared.
Hyun Min insisted on going inside on his own...
and told me to wait outside...
saying he didn't want me to see you wearing a ventilator.
Who's Hyun Min?
My younger brother.
So he's my brother-in-law?
Where is he right now?
After we went bankrupt,
he took the rest of the money and disappeared.
I'm still looking for him.
The kids are going to visit every now and then.
Feel free to make yourself at home.
Honey.
What do you plan to do with Mr. Kang?
He wouldn't want to live with me anymore.
You must've liked him a lot.
Will you let me get a divorce?
I'll think about it...
once I get my memory back.
I need to find Jo Hyun Min...
in order to figure out what happened during the past eight years.
The wedding venue called...
and told me they found my cell phone there.
I heard they left it at the company information desk.
You didn't have to bring it all the way here.
I figured you might need it right away.
I'm sure there are a lot of important stuff in there.
Ms. Seo, you're the most perfect secretary ever.
You're right. I actually got a new cell phone.
But I saved my speech for the meeting on Monday...
inside this cell phone, so I really needed it.
Where's your wife?
My wife?
Right. My wife.
- There she is. - Ms. Seo, what brings you here?
She brought me the cell phone I had lost.
Someone apparently threw it away in the trash can.
When you pick up a cell phone, you should return it to the owner...
or give it to someone at the wedding venue.
It's weird that anyone would throw it in the trash can.
There are tons of strange people in this world.
What is it?
I washed the scarf that you lent me and brought it back.
I also got you a small wedding gift.
Congratulations once again on your wedding.
Thank you so much.
That's probably Mr. Kim.
I asked him to bring me some documents.
Hello, Mr. Kim.
Did you enjoy your honeymoon?
I really didn't want to come back.
Ms. Seo, you're here too.
Let's talk in my study.
You don't need to bring me tea.
I'll see you on Monday. Thanks for this.
How's the reinvestigation going?
Both the NFS and private agency told me...
the brakes malfunctioned...
because the rain mixed with the brake oil.
No one knows why the dashcam was turned off though.
Didn't the conclude the case saying the brakes didn't work...
due to the vapor lock phenomenon?
Something didn't feel right, so we asked for a reinvestigation.
It's not like the brake oil needed to be changed.
And it was a new car.
I'm also pretty suspicious myself.
I feel like it might've been someone who tried to slander Director Seo.
We were suspicious of Mr. Shin.
And Director Choi is quite suspicious too.
It wasn't Mr. Shin for sure.
But if it turns out that it was Director Choi,
she'll surely be held responsible.
You should find the culprit no matter what.
Would you like a cup of tea?
Thank you.
I'll be frank with you.
Director Seo has a sense of social responsibility as a business owner,
so I respect him a lot.
And I support his plan to reform the company.
Not only is he rich and powerful,
but he's also extremely kind to his subordinates.
And I think that made me fantasize about him a bit.
So I figured I had to do what I could...
to stop anyone from getting in his way of becoming the chairman.
I was out of line.
I admire your loyalty for him.
I hope you continue to be a supportive secretary.
If you don't like it, I'll get you a different one.
Can I open it?
It's perfume.
I hope you enjoy your honeymoon period with a nice scent.
This is the perfume I normally wear.
Do you also use this too, Ms. Seo?
I'd never be able to use such an expensive bottle of perfume.
Gosh, that's nonsense.
It took me ages to pick out the right kind of perfume for you.
So I'm glad you like it, ma'am.
"Ma'am"?
That's so awkward.
You're my boss' wife.
So I should call you that.
But just call me "Ms. Lee" when we're at work.
Okay.
Thank you for the tea. I should get going now.
You must be expecting guests. Do you want me to help you out?
Do you have time?
Isn't your son all alone at the hospital?
We have a caregiver.
And he's currently having fun with my boyfriend.
You have a boyfriend?
We're going to get married once Jung Min gets...
his bone marrow transplant.
I respect Director Seo, but he's not my type.
You're good with knives.
My boyfriend owns a restaurant.
I helped him out a lot in the kitchen.
I was having a hard time cooking all on my own.
You're like my savior.
I love cooking.
I'll help you with everything.
Will you do that for me?
I bet you don't know...
how touched I was when you wrapped your scarf...
around my knee that day.
I feel like I might like you even more than Director Seo now.
We'll invite you to our place soon.
You should come with your boyfriend.
The four of us can have dinner together.
I'd be honored to spend time with you and Director Seo.
I guess we'll just have to accept...
the reinvestigation results regarding the brakes.
But the studio lighting is a different subject.
Ji Eun almost got hurt.
If Ms. Seo really did see Mr. Han that day,
it has to be Director Choi.
Chairwoman Seo changed her mind and agreed to support you,
and you were able to come to a compromise.
And now that you've decided to hold hands,
you'll be able to protect your management rights.
Her goal was to take revenge due to her ill-fated past.
But now that she no longer has a way inside the company,
she must be trying to vent her spite just like what he previously said.
That's why it's crucial to have her on her knees.
Other than the illegal documents you have on her,
I also brought you additional files regarding her slush fund.
You should look over it...
and give it to the chief prosecutor tomorrow once you meet him.
Whenever I think of Director Choi, it makes me think...
that what she went through was unnecessary.
I bet that made her suppress her sadness...
and make her get angry even more.
And that backfired on her...
and made her go blind for revenge.
Sir.
It's time for you to stop tolerating things.
Anger causes you to do things you might regret.
But my anger won't die down.
(Director Choi Myung Hwa)
Seo Jung Min has an appointment...
with the chief prosecutor tomorrow.
Jung Soo Ho just called and told me.
Mr. Kim just went to Seo Jung Min's house...
to give him additional files regarding our slush fund.
What's taking so long for Seo Eun Ju to call me?
Yang In Cheol thinks she wasn't able to find anything.
That cunning brat must be having second thoughts.
It's been over a week since Jung Min's wedding.
She's his stalker. She knows everything about him.
Stalkers observe the people they stalk very meticulously.
So they act and think...
in that person's shoes.
It's much more detailed than doing a background search.
Then are you saying she found it but is keeping it from us?
She's trying to settle a deal with me.
She'll probably ask me...
for all the video footages that prove her guilty.
She already found the files regarding my irregularities.
She just waited for Jung Min to come back...
and set an appointment with the chief prosecutor.
She's trying to close in on me.
What are you going to do then?
Find out where she is right now.
Didn't you hear the beep?
Ms. Seo.
Can't you hear me?
Don't raise your voice.
What's the matter with you?
You don't belong here.
Have you lost your mind?
Lee Ji Eun.
Have you ever met an insane person?
When someone's insane,
they never lose what they think is theirs.
They get furious and will never let you take it from them.
Crazy people only focus on one thing.
All they ever long for is to get what they want.
Seo Jung Min is all I care about.
I'm crazy about him.
So you'll never be able to steal him from me.
I saw him stroke your porcelain-like skin.
Do you think he'll do the same even if you get a burn?
I'm going to kill you. Die!
Die!
Ms. Seo.
I think you can stop now.
But how did you manage to slice the radish so evenly?
What should I do now?
It's okay. I'll do the rest.
I'm already grateful that you helped me this much.
- My goodness. - I'll carry it.
No, it's heavy. Let's carry it together.
Oh, my gosh.
Are you okay? Can you walk?
I don't think I can get up.
I'm sorry. This is all because of me.
Ms. Seo.
I think you can stop now.
But how did you manage to slice the radish so evenly?
What should I do now?
It's okay. I'll do the rest.
I'm already grateful that you helped me this much.
Just a second.
Are you okay? Can you walk?
I don't think I can get up.
I'm sorry. This is all because of me.
I should call an ambulance.
Jung Min! Jung Min!
My goodness.
Ms. Seo, are you okay?
What happened?
She got hurt because of me.
Can you please carry her?
No, it's okay.
That's a really bad burn.
Hold onto me. Here.
Okay.
- Ji Eun, can you get me some ice? - Sure.
(Phoenix 2020)
I wish you were my dad.
Instead, I'll be your friend.
Mr. Kang, please end it with my mom.
I bet you're really upset.
I'd ask for nothing more if I had a son like you.
I've come to a decision, so you'd better brace yourself.
You must be determined to have me investigated by the prosecution.
The files regarding Director Choi's irregularities have disappeared.
Seo Eun Ju.
I think she got bought off by Director Choi.
If you ever show up before Ms. Seo again,
I swear I won't let it slide.
