(Episode 53)
Why hasn't he called or texted?
Let's see.
Come in.
Do you need something?
I wanted to ask about today's snack.
What is the staff's snack today?
Sandwiches.
I know it's just a snack,
but that's not enough for people tired from caring for the residents.
I'll provide today's snack.
Organic chicken.
Should I order delivery?
No. I'll go get them myself.
That way, it won't get cold.
(Nosang Chicken)
What's wrong with them?
Who knows? They've been like that since morning.
Hello.
Hey!
What's his problem?
He was so into me before, but now, he won't even look at me.
Maybe he's a total player.
Darn it. But...
he looked terrible.
I wonder if something's wrong.
Hello, sir.
Am I late?
No. I came early.
Have a seat.
I didn't know what you liked, so I chose traditional Korean.
Is that all right?
Of course. Korean food is the best for Koreans.
I eat other cuisines at times because I have to,
but they just don't match my palate.
It must've been hard when you were studying in Italy.
There weren't many Korean restaurants back then.
Italy?
Yes. Well, I was young back then.
It's my dream to study in Italy or France.
Actually, that was my father's dream too.
It was?
He was a designer.
He ran a small custom-made shoe store.
He did?
Is that what he does now?
Honey? What are you doing here?
I invited her as well.
I didn't hear from you, so I thought you couldn't make it.
I thought it would be comfortable to eat here.
My amazing husband Chairman Kwon Hyuk Sang is here too.
You didn't have to come.
I could've talked about company matters with Gemma...
and had a cozy, fun time.
Is it not fun with me?
Isn't my expiration date with you approaching?
From what I can see,
you like Assemblyman Son more than me.
You should be careful what you say as a joke, Mr. Chairman.
Ms. Kim is here.
Why don't we eat first, sir?
Gosh.
Hi. Aren't you Gemma's brother?
He brought us chicken that time.
Yes.
Hello.
Oh no. Are you here to see Gemma?
I am.
Sorry. Gemma left early today.
You should've called first.
(Yu Kyung)
I'll go then. Bye.
I wonder if something's wrong.
He seems down. He was so energetic last time.
Ms. Min. May I ask you something?
During which stage...
of your life were you the happiest?
Yes. I wonder too.
When was it?
There's no such thing.
Life is all the same.
Wasn't it when you were studying in Italy?
You said that was where you met the chairman.
Where in Italy did you two meet?
Gemma.
We're not close enough to openly discuss...
personal matters.
Don't cross the line.
There are lies circulating online...
My apologies.
You just...
remind me of my mother, that's all.
You look a lot like her.
Ms. Min is a rare beauty.
Your mother must be as well.
Yes. Not only that. She loved her children...
more than anything.
She did?
Where does she live now?
Our mom is...
Oh no.
You should be careful.
Give me some napkins.
What are you up to?
Why did you call us both here?
I'm going to tell him today...
that I'm your daughter.
You gave a job to...
and took care of your previous husband's daughter.
Secretly, without telling your husband.
I didn't take care of you.
You deceived me.
Regardless, he'll still feel betrayed.
Just as I do. Enough to want to kill you.
Fine. Tell him.
I have nothing to fear.
Rather, you should be afraid of me.
Hello? Lady Choi? It's me, Min Hee Kyung.
I'm with Gemma right now.
What's wrong?
I should tell Lady Choi everything as well.
That you're my daughter.
Why? Are you afraid?
Are you?
You wanted revenge,
so you deceived Lady Choi...
and used her to get a job at Lora.
Not only that, but you tried to kill me.
Hello?
(Lady Choi)
What would you prefer?
Should I tell her, or will you?
Fine.
Let's tell everyone the truth.
Once she finds out,
she'll probably collapse from the shock.
Her heart is already weak, so it'll probably be dangerous.
But she collapsed once already.
She got to extend her life by this much.
She has lived long enough.
What will you do?
The choice is yours.
Why? Can't you make up your mind?
It won't be to the level of self-destruction, but...
Let me repeat myself.
I...
I would've been different, had I known.
Don't make me laugh.
You would've done the same even if you had known.
You wouldn't have been able to lose that despicable...
and cheap greed.
My desires weren't despicable and cheap.
They were hopes that any human being could have.
Can you guarantee you wouldn't have done the same?
Whether you're Jin A or Gemma,
stop being foolish because you can't let go.
I, not you,
will punish Hyuk Sang.
I'll destroy him.
You lived a lie all your life.
But you want me to trust you, who dumped your husband and kids?
You probably think I'm the lowest of the low,
but even someone like that tells the truth at times.
It's your prerogative to believe it or not.
Leave Hyuk Sang to me.
I'll handle him.
Where's Gemma?
She left. She wasn't feeling well.
She asked me to relay her apologies.
You sent her away.
The greedy, jealous woman that you are.
What? Am I wrong?
You must've been excited about eating alone with her.
Too bad that I showed up.
Are you still jealous?
Be careful of Gemma.
She's not the one I should be careful of.
You are.
You stabbed me in the back...
and are trying to steal my spot.
You're the true conniver.
What happened to the car?
Did you get rid of it? Did you wash away the blood?
Kwon Hyuk Sang. How's your blood-stained car?
Did you...
What?
Why do you suddenly want to know about my car?
Isn't it obvious?
Even if the statute of limitations did expire,
you and I will be finished if that gets out.
Thus, you need to take care of it thoroughly.
I'll take care of it.
How dare you order me around?
Why are you getting angry?
I'm not ordering you.
It's a request.
You stupid airhead.
Request?
Hee Kyung.
Was it you?
Did you get the hanbok made at the shop in DDM...
that I referred you to?
Can't I get it made somewhere else?
You know how superficial she is.
Look at her. She's decked out in all designer brands.
She wouldn't want something from DDM.
What use is it to cover yourself in designer goods?
It's the quality of the person underneath that matters.
I'll talk to your mom as well,
but I refuse any dowry or wedding gifts for the family.
And you should move in here after you get married.
What?
Here?
No, Grandmother. What about our newlywed home?
You can move in later.
It doesn't have feet. It won't run away.
What's family?
You should eat together...
and live together. That's how you grow on each other. Right?
Yes, I'm good with that.
I'm for it.
Gosh.
Hey, you. Gemma.
You're going to live here for a while again?
What are you up to?
Why did you crawl back here?
Why are you ignoring me?
Why won't you answer me?
I didn't crawl in here, I walked.
What?
Why must you say something so utterly unworthy of a response?
You're so ignorant for someone who even studied abroad.
- Gemma. - Have some manners.
Have some dignity.
What? I'm speechless.
She's acting like she's above me in the family.
Look at her bringing Grandmother tea to kiss up to her.
I can't stand her.
Come in.
Why didn't you ask Hye Bin to join us?
She must not like tea.
And she said she's leaving soon.
Oh well.
Gemma.
Thank you for coming here.
Sorry?
Whether it was because of the renovations or whatnot,
you asked if you could stay here for a few days...
because you were comfortable enough with me to ask.
That's right.
To be honest, I've been very nervous.
I was afraid you'd never talk to me...
or visit me ever again...
because I was against you and Ki Seok going out.
I regretted it and repented.
I'll be leaving this world soon.
Why am I so greedy? Why can't I let go?
You two are happy. That's all that matters.
Why must I butt in?
You must've been very hurt.
Grandmother.
Yes.
You two take care of your own problems.
You don't need my permission.
That's all I have to say.
Ki Seok is too soft and frustrating,
but he's a good kid.
Take good care of him.
Yes, Grandmother.
Okay.
Come in.
I'm home.
My gosh. Speak of the devil.
You're the devil.
What?
Come and sit.
When are you going to get married?
You two are young.
But you were hesitant because this old woman disapproved.
Where's your confidence? Why are you so useless?
Grandma.
Darn it.
I'm so annoyed.
I'm going to snap.
What's wrong with that old hag?
What era is this?
Why must I live in that house when I have my own place?
And Gemma was adding fuel to the fire.
She was lecturing me about manners and dignity.
Gemma?
She moved back into Grandmother's house.
She's living there for the time being.
She must be determined to latch herself onto Ki Seok.
Hey, Hye Bin. Watch how you speak, will you?
You're getting married soon too.
What do you mean?
You always annoy me when I'm already upset.
What?
Stop it, Soo Yeon.
She's annoyed already. Leave her alone.
I'm speechless.
Was I wrong?
I can see why that family brought up your lack of manners and dignity.
It's clear as day.
Hye Bin.
Did Gemma really move into Lady Choi's house?
How long will she be there?
The phone is turned off. Please leave a message...
after the tone.
He won't pick up.
He turned off his phone.
Maybe his phone died.
He didn't pick up all day.
Tae Gil. Have you heard from Gun Wook today?
Gun Wook?
What about him?
Is something wrong?
His phone has turned been off all day.
How could he not be upset after the fit Gemma threw?
He found out that we took hush money to pay for his heart surgery.
It's all my fault.
I'm the jerk.
At least you know.
All of this is his fault.
He tricked me into staying quiet.
But you saved Gun Wook's life.
Do you think he contacted Gemma?
Call her.
Come to my office.
I heard...
you moved back into Lady Choi's house.
Must I tell you...
where I'm living?
Hye Bin will be getting married and moving in there soon.
As her mom, it is my business...
whether or not...
you keep visiting.
I'll be getting married and living there soon too.
It is none of your business, as far as I can tell.
What?
You expected it too.
Ki Seok and me.
Do you think that will happen?
Why not?
Grandmother wants it too.
(Auntie)
If that is all, I'll go now.
Gemma.
Did I come at a bad time?
It's fine since it's lunchtime soon.
Did Mom send you?
No. I came on my own.
Gemma.
You must be so upset.
Gun Wook turned off his phone and can't be reached.
He hasn't come home.
Did he contact you by any chance?
No, he hasn't contacted me either.
My gosh. That poor kid.
He found out that he got surgery and lived...
because of your dad.
He must feel terrible and painful too.
Auntie.
I'm sorry, but I don't want to hear anything right now.
Sure, I understand.
You must be so livid when you think about your dad.
But when you think about it,
the one who should really be punished is your mom.
No. That woman.
She was in the car with him when he ran him over.
How could she play dumb and not say a word...
like that?
What did you just say?
She was in the car with him? Who was?
- That's not it. Never mind. - Auntie.
Tell me.
Now.
(Pulses Krill56)
Thank you. Have a nice day.
Come again.
Gosh.
Goodness. What do I do?
What's wrong?
I'm the birdbrain. Me.
I'm the birdbrain, not you.
Gosh. What will I do now?
My big mouth.
Darn it.
Auntie. Please tell me.
Tell me.
The truth is...
the day Mr. Kim passed away,
your mom, I mean,
that woman was in the car that hit him and drove off.
Ok Kyung said she saw him.
Is Gemma not back yet?
No, not yet.
(Mr. Yoon Hyun Seok)
Mom.
It's me.
Sure.
There's no turning back.
There's no use keeping anything else from you.
Ms. So!
Ms. So, Gun Wook...
Gun Wook? What about my son?
Gun Wook is slumped over on a park bench over there...
because he isn't feeling well.
What? Where is he?
My poor son.
I had taken Gun Wook to the hospital that day.
After getting him admitted, I was on my way home...
with Tae Gil to change.
It was pouring that night.
I heard a loud thump.
That's how I knew someone was hit by a car.
I assumed the driver...
would take the victim to the hospital.
But the car just drove off.
That jerk! Why that...
Hey, you jerk!
Hey. Hello?
Mr. Kim!
Oh my gosh!
Mr. Kim! Wake up!
And your mom...
was in that car with a man.
And the person who had died was Mr. Kim Jung Guk.
Why didn't you tell me?
Why didn't you say something sooner?
How could I?
How could I tell a little kid that her mom was in the car...
that killed her dad and drove off?
It would only break your heart.
I had hoped...
you'd never find out.
It would be better not to know.
What good will it do to know?
That's ridiculous.
You should've told me.
You still should've told me.
It tormented me every day too.
Every time I saw you,
I kept seeing Mr. Kim. Imagine how I felt.
What could be a worse punishment?
Are you saying you were right?
Do you think you paid for your sins because you raised us?
No, Gemma.
Definitely not.
You traded my dad's life for Gun Wook's.
You profited from it!
But you acted like you cared for me.
That's not right.
You can't do this to me!
Gemma.
That's not it.
Dad.
What do I do?
Wake up, Daddy.
Wake up!
Dad.
(Red Shoes)
Did you find out who it was?
You don't suspect me, do you?
It's not like you to be scared like some loser.
Kwon Hyuk Sang must pay.
- What are you doing here? - I'm looking something up.
Ask me if you need my help with anything.
Can you kill someone for me?
What did you mean, you caught the killer?
This has the evidence and the names of witnesses.
