Then who is Han Woo Jung?
Whose daughter, is she?
Is she... my daughter?
I'm asking you.
Who is Han Woo Jung's father?
I have no reason to answer your question.
What are you doing?
Your daughter, Woo Jung, came to see me.
Give me just 30 minutes.
Please.
We can't go back to how things were.
Rather,
I don't want to go back.
Let's...
stop being friends.
I didn't befriend you because I genuinely liked you either.
I thought I would stand out...
because you seemed naive and nice.
We can't undo our history even if you say this.
Can we really stop being friends just because you say that?
I don't want to wear a mask in front of you anymore.
I'm more pretentious...
and egoistic than you think I am.
I'm not a good company for someone nice and naive like you.
I don't care.
What?
I don't care what you're really like.
Hwa Kyung, you are...
my one and only friend.
Do you remember?
When I hit a beehive when we went to an amusement park,
all the other kids were busy running away.
But you held onto me to protect me,
and you almost died from that.
- That's not all. - Stop it.
You are the one who taught me that it's a huge thrill...
to stand in front with a microphone and to work hard...
to achieve my dream.
I got here because I wanted to be more like you.
Han Woo Jung.
Do you remember my crush during our freshman year in college?
You got so angry when you found out he only approached me...
to get your number.
You made him kneel down in front of me...
and made him apologize too.
That's when you told me this.
"Han Woo Jung."
"Don't ever forget how precious you are."
You really meant that.
Stop it.
Did you forget?
I ignored my birth father's death to go to a job interview.
And I didn't attend his funeral either.
You asked, "How can you do that?"
I'm telling you, I can.
I can abandon my birth father and more to protect...
my position and what I have.
I don't understand that and can't condone it either.
But I won't let go of you because of those reasons.
I can't lose you like that,
Hwa Kyung.
You're like my family.
And a family can never be separated...
no matter how bad or good they are...
and no matter how much you fight.
That's family.
I'm not your family.
This is nonsense.
Hwa Kyung.
You just had a drink.
- I'll drive. Give me the keys. - I don't need you.
Let's go.
Oh, sure. Let's go.
Hwa Kyung. He's...
Please. I'll drive her.
Are you sure it's okay to leave like that?
Isn't she your friend? Is there a problem?
Seong Min.
Yes?
Oh, yes. Tell me whatever you need. I'll do anything I can.
Get out.
What?
I don't need you anymore, so get out.
Gosh. She must be worried after being harsh to her.
What?
Isn't that Do Bin?
Gosh.
What's going on between them?
You need to go see a doctor.
I'm fine.
I can go home and put some ice pack on it.
I can give you a ride. Let's go.
I'll just drive you quietly. Let's go.
Did you see the two of them?
What?
Yes.
How did they look to you?
Well... How can I put this?
It looked like a scene from a romantic movie.
Why did...
Woo Jung go to see you?
She came because she was worried about Hwa Kyung.
She seemed like a great kid.
She reminded of you when you were younger.
Enough.
I don't want to hear that.
Let me ask you one more time.
Does Woo Jung have...
- anything to do with... - No.
Woo Jung is...
just my daughter, who has nothing to do with you.
That can't be right.
If she's the same age as Hwa Kyung,
there is no way you dated another man...
and had a child with him.
Why do you think so?
You also dated Oh Yeon Hee when you dated me...
and had a child with her.
Why are you so sure that I wouldn't do that?
If you can do that, why can't I?
You are different from me.
You're a good person...
I don't need you to judge me.
Don't ever say a word about me...
or Woo Jung again.
You don't have the right to do that.
Don't ever call me again.
I hope we won't ever meet again, even if it was by a coincidence.
I'm relieved.
You just pulled your ligament, but your bone is fine.
You need to be careful for a few days, so don't strain yourself.
Thank you.
I got treated thanks to you.
Oh, gosh.
Hold tight.
Ms. Walking Disaster.
If you don't listen to me and fall down again,
I'm going to leave you here.
Thank you for the ride.
Did something happen to you before?
What?
You don't have to tell me if you don't want to.
I fought with a friend.
Is that friend Ms. Shin?
You two didn't seem the same after what happened to Mr. Park.
Hwa Kyung is in a lot of pain right now.
That's why she wants to pretend like she's evil...
and to avoid me.
Why do you always put Ms. Shin before you?
- What? - Think about it.
She became an announcer,
but you didn't make it.
And you're more worried about her than yourself.
Hwa Kyung deserved to make it.
What about you?
I would be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed.
But this isn't the end.
It's tough, but I can't give up here...
to sit around worrying and struggling in despair.
I just have to believe that I will find...
another opportunity.
By any chance,
do you want to work as a reporter?
A reporter?
"Missing Memories" is preparing a special.
We need to make another segment, so I'm looking for a reporter...
My mom hosts that program.
How can I become a reporter for that program?
What does that have to do with anything?
I'm giving you an opportunity as the producer in charge...
because I believe in your talent.
That's not how other people would see it.
Thank you for the offer, but I'll have to decline.
What happened?
Why did you hurt your leg?
Let me see it.
It would've been bad if it wasn't for Producer Yoon.
You should be careful.
Did you go see President Shin Myung Joon...
of Miseong Group?
How do you know that?
Don't you know what he's like?
He tried to pay Mr. Park to silence him...
and gave pressure to our team to stop the program.
He didn't use the right means,
but he did what he had to do.
He probably wanted to protect Hwa Kyung.
And?
What did you discuss with him?
I was worried because I couldn't reach Hwa Kyung.
I just asked...
if she was okay and where she was.
Did you meet her?
It looks like she needs some more time.
After that, we can go back to...
It can't be like how it was before.
That can't happen, Woo Jung.
Mom.
Hwa Kyung doesn't consider you as a friend anymore.
She knows that you know a secret that she wanted to hide...
No, she thinks you're someone who knows her weakness.
She feels uncomfortable with you.
Aren't friends supposed to share big secrets...
and comfort each other...
You fool. Don't you know what she's like?
She's different from you.
She's way too ambitious.
If you stay with her,
you'll be hurt even more than you are.
- So Woo Jung... - Stop it, Mom.
It's not like she stole anything or killed someone.
It's not like that.
How can you not embrace her,
and tell me to stop seeing her when she's in so much pain?
People don't have a button on their emotions.
She can't just turn it on and off.
You're always like this.
You don't care about anything else when you're busy at work.
You often ignore Woo Cheol and me too.
How many times...
have you cooked for Woo Cheol and me?
Have you ever ironed my uniform?
Have you ever brought me an umbrella on a rainy day?
You get treated like an elegant queen outside,
but you never do any chores at home.
It was always up to me to take care of you and Woo Cheol.
There are many times...
when it gets too tough and frustrating for me.
Woo Jung.
Do you know why I became such a tomboy?
Do you know why the great Han Joo Won's daughter...
began to hear from people that I'm nothing like you?
I thought...
that I needed to protect you.
I couldn't look like a girl...
because I didn't have a dad.
I wanted to be dependable, strong, and energetic.
But Hwa Kyung changed me.
She taught me that I am...
very precious.
But you are asking me to stop seeing her?
I'm already frustrated enough.
You don't have to add to this.
Hwa Kyung...
wants to stop being friends.
Are you happy now?
Are you?
My gosh.
Gosh. Why are people...
doing this to me?
Why? Do you have something to say?
I met with...
Ms. Han this afternoon.
You did?
- Why? - Why do you ask?
You're a busy man, so I wanted to help you.
- Did you make the offer? - Yes.
She declined even after I offered to pay her three times more.
What do we do now? Dad really wants to have her there.
We'll just have to tell him what has happened.
You always made sure you do whenever my dad ordered.
Is there a reason to get a model who isn't impressed...
by Miseong Apparel?
Then aren't you going to...
meet Ms. Han?
You already met with her. I don't need to see her.
It looked like Hwa Kyung met with her too.
What if she manages to get her?
That won't happen.
Ms. Han won't say yes to anything that's related to Miseong Group.
How can you be...
so sure?
I heard she declined all the offers that our marketing team made,
including advertisements and private events.
I'll find another way. You don't have to mind.
Right, honey.
Make some time tomorrow.
Let's go to the villa in Yangsu-ri that I got as a birthday present...
with Hwa Kyung.
I want the three of us to spend some time together.
I have a board meeting in the morning,
so we can leave in the afternoon.
Why are you drinking?
Do you need something?
Do you want lotus leaf tea or puer tea?
I'll take chrysanthemum tea.
I couldn't fall asleep easily for the last few days.
Your friend, Woo Jung, visited me in the afternoon.
I heard.
She was really worried about you.
She seemed nice and merry.
Does she know that you were adopted?
Yes.
She was the first to know.
And that Park Choon Sung...
is my birth father.
She stayed with him as he passed away...
and gave him a funeral too.
Woo Jung did that.
He wasn't even her father,
and she went that far?
Yes.
That's why you're avoiding her.
She does the things that you can't do.
Woo Jung is...
nice, warm-hearted,
and almost too naive in trusting people.
But you won against her on the interview.
You sound like someone who lost.
Not at all.
She has never won against me.
And she never will.
This interview won't be the end.
You might see here again next year as a rival,
or even sooner.
There's no one stronger than someone who's nice and warm-hearted.
And it's a powerful thing to trust people so much...
that she would come off as naive.
Do you...
also like her?
You just met her once.
It's late. You should sleep.
Is Myung Joon good to you?
Of course.
He's always been the same...
since when we began to go out.
I'm happy.
Both Myung Joon and Hwa Kyung...
love me a lot.
That's good.
- Get out. - What?
I don't need you anymore, so get out.
She's a toughie.
She's playing around with my heart.
I have no idea what she'll do next.
What's wrong with me?
What are you doing?
Why are you working out this late?
What about you? Are you putting on a one-man show?
Right.
What's going on between you...
and Woo Jung?
What do you mean?
Why do you suddenly ask?
I saw you two by coincidence,
and it looked like...
you two were in a romantic movie.
Why is it so hot in here?
You seem suspicious.
Something is definitely fishy.
What is?
Forget it. I don't want any.
I want to get you new clothes. Why don't you want any?
I don't have anywhere to go to in a new outfit.
You buy clothes only when you have to go somewhere?
You can look pretty everyday.
I'm fine.
Goodness. You're so stubborn.
Well, then you don't want to buy new clothes?
Right?
- Come on. Let's go. - Why?
How can I wear your clothes?
This suits you.
This is definitely yours. Put it on.
You look beautiful.
Mom, I'm sorry...
that I was really mean.
I'm glad you know that.
Put these on.
These are your favorite shoes.
You're right.
I wore these when I debuted as a freelancer show host.
Then why are you giving them to me?
What do you think?
Because you are thousands and millions times more precious.
They probably won't fit.
See? You are Han Joo Won's girl.
We even wear the same size.
How's your ankle?
It's almost healed.
I'll go back to the hospital and get it checked.
You don't have to be a tomboy anymore.
And you don't have to be a guardian to me or Woo Cheol.
You are Han Woo Jung.
The nice and warm-hearted daughter of Han Joo Won.
You'll be late for work.
Oh, right.
Will you be at home?
Woo Cheol gets off early today.
How are things coming...
with our 30th anniversary event?
We booked a venue...
and made a list of our VIP guests.
Pianist Baek Seung Joon,
who won in the International Chopin Piano Competition, agreed to play.
Good job.
Oh, right.
What about Han Joo Won? Did someone get her?
Woo Jung is...
just my daughter, who has nothing to do with you.
President Shin.
- Pardon? - Goodness.
Unbelievable.
He asked about getting Han Joo Won.
She turned down our offer, just as we expected.
Did Hwa Kyung fail too?
Yes, Chairman Oh.
You should give up on her.
We'll get Announcer Jeon Myung Woo instead...
Will you give up just because you failed once?
You need to try 10, no, 20 times more.
She doesn't want to do it even after I offered...
to pay three time more.
I don't care if you pay her 10 times as more. Bring her.
A businessman must know when to invest his money.
Goodness.
It's not like I'm asking you to bring me the elixir plant.
Why do you bums never do any work?
All of you have zero ambitions.
Gosh.
Only if Yeon Seok had been alive. Gosh.
Chairman Oh.
How long will you treat me...
like I'm nothing compared to Yeon Seok, who's already dead?
You will pay dearly if you keep insisting on keeping...
the power within your bloodline.
I actually came to see your wife, but she wasn't in.
I'm second best?
No, sir.
(Han Woo Jung)
Your phone.
Hello, President Shin.
Ms. Han.
May I see you right now?
Right now?
- Enjoy. - Sure.
How does Woo Jung know...
that awful gentleman?
He doesn't seem awful. He looks great.
You're right. He definitely looks like someone in power.
A son of a rich man, or a son-in-law.
You should never judge anyone by their looks.
People who have...
a great character and intellect are the best people.
There's a guy like that around here.
His name is Yoon Chang Soo.
A man of great character and intellect, my foot.
Three puffer fish stew. Deliver them to the hair salon.
Don't be so vulgar. Show some character and intellect.
Hurry up.
I'll be back.
Woo Cheol, say hello to him.
This is Hwa Kyung's dad.
Hello.
This is Woo Cheol's second time...
meeting Hwa Kyung's dad.
The second time?
No, this is your first time.
No.
This is exactly the second time.
It's the first time.
I'm sorry. He must've gotten confused.
He's never done this before.
Why did you want to see me?
Did something happen to Hwa Kyung?
She's fine.
I just wanted to see you one more time.
Why?
To be honest,
we want to ask...
Ms. Han to be Miseong Apparel's model.
She must have turned it down.
Oh, yes.
I couldn't help you either.
She's extremely stubborn.
I'm sorry. I shouldn't have asked you.
No, it's okay.
I asked you for a favor because of Hwa Kyung too.
It's great to see someone as bright and healthy as you are.
It looks like you were brought up very well.
What's your father like?
He passed away a long time ago.
It was around when he was born.
I don't even remember him...
because it was so long ago.
I'm so full.
Thank you. We had a great meal.
Woo Cheol thanks you too.
I'd like to formally invite you over for dinner later.
Would that be all right?
Just give me a call. I'll be there with a big appetite.
Someone's calling.
It's me.
The villa at Yangsu-ri?
I'll come home now.
It won't take long. I'll be there soon.
(Secret and Lies)
How many times do I have to tell you that she isn't?
Then why are you so angry, and why did you come here?
Can you really face the truth?
I found out a huge secret,
and it could be a huge scandal.
Whose secret is it?
Don't pop your champagne too soon.
What do you want to say to me?
A background check on Han Joo Won?
Please find out in detail.
Which part of her life do you want me to focus on?
The men in her life.
