What are you guys doing here?
Jenny.
Man Su came by to visit.
So I brought him here so you two can have tea together.
Man Su, I need to meet a client, so I'll be in my office.
- Okay, Mother. - Okay.
What brings you here at this hour? Aren't you a busy man?
I'm free today.
I don't think that's why you're here.
You've never visited me like this before.
I'm serious, Jenny. I had a free schedule today,
so I dropped by hoping we could drink tea together.
This is my workroom.
This isn't a place where I can have tea with you.
That's right, Jenny.
- Then... - You know we have...
a separate VIP room where our clients can drink tea.
If you have free time, that's where you should go.
Meanwhile, I need to get some work done.
Do you think if I stay here...
That would obviously distract me.
Okay, I'll have some tea and come back a little later.
You're going to come back?
When you're free,
I need to talk to you about the look book.
Okay, fine.
I'll see you, then.
Eun Seok's supposed to come to Japan today.
But he isn't even calling.
- Jenny. - Oh, my goodness!
I'm over here.
Eun Seok.
I came here to find you,
but I heard your mom's voice, so I was hiding over there.
Good job.
When and how did you come here?
Why didn't you answer my calls?
I couldn't get a hold of you, so it drove me crazy.
That's what I should be saying. Why didn't you call me?
What are you talking about? I called you so many times.
I didn't get a single call. Do you know how much I waited?
We should get out of here first.
- I have so much to tell you. - Okay, let's do that.
Jenny.
Man Su.
- Who's this? - Oh, well...
- My name is Oh Eun Seok. - Oh Eun Seok?
What brings you here?
He came to see me.
I heard a lot about you.
Why are you back?
I made lunch reservations for us.
It's a sushi restaurant by the beach.
I'm okay. You can eat with my mom.
By the way, why are you here to see Jenny?
I wanted to meet him.
So I asked him to drop by.
Man Su, can you do me a favor?
What's that, Jenny?
I'll do anything for you.
I'm going to go outside.
If my mom happens to look for me,
please don't tell her that you met Eun Seok.
Just tell her that I went for a walk by myself.
Okay, I'll do that. Don't worry.
Feel free to spend as much time as you need.
Thank you.
Here are the documents you wanted me to look over.
So what do you think? How's the accounting?
The business has been in deficit for many years.
Yes.
And this is how Eun Seok is planning to make things better.
Does it seem possible?
Yes, sir.
If he utilizes the materials that the company already owns,
he won't need to invest in any new facilities.
I agree with you.
This is Eun Seok's business plan,
so you should help him out.
Okay, sir.
Have you given up on catching the Black Rose?
We can get back to that once you're ready to catch her.
Pardon?
Tell me when you're ready.
Okay, sir. I will.
Okay.
Your number suddenly disappeared from the cell phone.
Then how did you send me that text?
What text?
Do you know how much this text shocked me?
(This is Jenny. Please. I'm already busy with a lot of work.)
This is absurd.
You actually believed...
that I would send you something like this?
No, I couldn't.
But I suddenly lost contact, so I got really worried.
All I had in my mind was that I needed to talk to you.
I called you 10...
No, I called you dozens of times.
And I also sent you countless texts.
I never got a single call or a text.
Let me see your cell phone.
Here.
(Blocked number: Executive Director Oh Eun Seok)
See? My number's blocked.
What?
(Blocked number: Executive Director Oh Eun Seok)
You're right.
And all the texts I sent you are gone.
(There are no texts.)
How... How is this possible?
Look.
These are the texts I sent you, but none of them are in your phone.
(There are no texts.)
Someone must've classified all my texts as spam,
deleted them,
and blocked my number.
I never even imagined any of this.
Who would do something like this?
President Wang.
Right.
There's something that's even more shocking.
Something that's even more shocking?
Yes.
Go ahead and tell me.
Whatever my mom did, I don't think it can get...
any more shocking than this.
You're going to get very shocked by this.
About the pickpocket incident...
Here.
What's this?
It's a recording of what the pickpocket said.
The actual culprit was someone else.
It was someone else?
The person who instigated this guy to pickpocket your stuff.
Someone instigated the incident?
Yes.
Then...
was that...
also my mom?
I think so.
I understand that your mom doesn't like me.
But she made you suffer by instigating a pickpocket,
and she even sent me a fake text.
Both of those behaviors are very hard to understand.
Yes.
You're right.
My mom was always overprotective of me,
but I didn't think much of it because that's just how she is.
But...
she even instigated a pickpocket?
I mean... What's wrong with her?
Jenny.
Is there something between you two that I don't know about?
No, not at all.
There's absolutely nothing.
I don't know what she might do again in the future, and that worries me.
More importantly,
I'm worried that we might never get to meet each other again.
That won't ever happen.
I'll do everything I can to prevent that from happening.
She hired someone to steal from her own daughter.
She blocked my number...
and even sent me a fake text.
I'm sure she'll do things that are a lot worse...
to stop what she doesn't want from happening.
I'm sorry for being so blunt.
No, it's okay. You're right.
If it weren't for you, I would've naturally lived a life...
that my mom wanted me to live without ever doubting her.
I wonder where things started to go wrong.
You should come to Korea, Jenny. Use whatever excuse you need.
I'm worried that you're always with President Wang all the time.
I'll think about it.
Memorize my phone number...
since she might delete it again.
I memorized it already.
Once I'm back in Korea,
I'll also think about how I'm going to protect you.
Make sure you stay safe until we meet again.
Okay.
I'm so worried about you.
Jenny.
Your mother's looking for you. You should go back inside.
Yes, you should go.
Okay, I'll be there. Please excuse us, Man Su.
You have to go now.
Naomi's here to meet you.
She's an important client, so she'll come outside to find you.
It's your mother.
Yes, Mother.
We're outside taking a walk. We'll be right there.
You guys went outside for a walk together?
Great job.
Please send Jenny here.
Naomi is dying to meet her.
Okay, Mother.
You should go, Jenny. I'll call you.
Have a safe trip home.
I hope we'll get to meet soon.
Can we talk?
I have nothing to say to you.
Do you know that President Wang hates you?
Do you know that Jenny isn't interested in you?
You don't have the power to protect her.
You're just constantly angering my mother-in-law...
which will only put Jenny in more danger.
So don't get too close with Jenny.
Are you and President Wang in this together?
What's that supposed to mean?
You say you like Jenny,
but what do you even do for her?
You know nothing. Don't act like you do.
I've known Jenny for 10 years.
I knew her ever since she was a little girl,
and I watched her grow up to be the woman she is today.
So don't act like you know everything about her.
If you know her so well,
why didn't you do anything to prevent all this from happening?
I don't exactly know what you're talking about.
But if you didn't show up, Jenny would be still be...
living a happy life focusing on her work.
"Happy"?
Jenny always gets involved in so many accidents,
and a lot of unusual things happen to her.
Is that what you call "happy"?
Jenny's locked up right now without even knowing that she is.
I knew you were impudent,
but you're also quite interesting.
The more you try to get her out,
the longer she'll stay locked up.
I'll protect her and get rid of what's bad once it's the right time.
So don't do anything reckless, and don't ever meet her again.
You're always following President Wang around...
and flattering her by calling her "Mother".
How is that going to help you protect Jenny?
Do you even know what Jenny's going through right now?
This is going to be my last warning.
Don't ever meet Jenny again.
She's my fiancee.
Didn't you hear what she said?
You can like her for as long as you want,
but she's never going to like you.
So wake up from your delusion,
and stop stalking her.
You jerk.
Hello, Naomi.
Jenny, it's been so long.
You've become even prettier.
Thank you.
Did she like the outfit I made for her last time?
Yes, of course. She received so many compliments...
regarding your outfit during her trip abroad.
So this time, she wishes to make an order for 10 dresses.
Thank you.
What's this?
It's a recording of what the pickpocket said.
Hey, Jenny. I just arrived at the airport.
I just listened to the recording you gave me.
Is this all true?
Yes, it's all true.
Can you take responsibility?
Yes, I can take responsibility. It's all true.
So you're telling me that nothing is false?
It's all true?
I'm also very confused because nothing makes any sense.
If...
If this recording is true...
If it's true,
what am I supposed to do now?
You need to be able to judge what's true and what's false.
Okay.
I'll think about it.
I'll be boarding the plane soon.
I'll arrive in Seoul in two hours, so let's talk then.
If you need me to, I can come back to Japan this weekend.
Call me, Jenny.
Okay, I will.
Is Eun Seok on his way back from Japan?
Yes, he just arrived at the airport.
You don't think he met Jenny, right?
Do you think I'm a fortune teller or something?
How do you expect me to know that?
That's all part of your job as a spy.
I'm sure nothing happened.
And so what if he meets Jenny? It's not even that big of a deal.
My goodness, you're so dumb.
If he meets her, they'll hit it off,
and he'll end up taking this business that's mine.
And if that happens, you, Young Man, and I will lose everything.
Anyway, Eun Seok's success won't benefit us in any kind of way.
Mom, Eun Seok's not an easy guy to fight against.
Don't look down on him too much.
You really have no color of your own. You're so fickle.
What?
The executive director at your old workplace is close with Jenny?
Yes, I was also very startled.
He even calls her.
Really?
He told me that he'll let me say hello...
and have a meal with her once she comes to Korea.
Who's Jenny?
She's a really famous designer.
She's a very popular and young designer...
who globalized the beauty of Korea.
She just turned 29.
If she's 29,
that means she's the same age as Kyung Ah.
My mom always brings Kyung Ah up regardless of what we talk about.
Of course.
Kyung In found a four-leaf clover in our garden and gave it to me.
My wish is going to come true no matter what.
I agree, Ms. Ji.
Good things keep happening in this house.
Of course. I'm sure you'll also get a job soon.
- Do you really think so? - Of course.
Let's see.
This is more than incredible.
That's my desk.
And that right there is for my female secretary.
If a competent and kind secretary is sitting in front of me,
it will increase my work efficiency.
Let's see.
I wonder how many people applied.
Jenny.
Jenny, about Naomi...
Jenny, did you cry?
No, something went in my eye.
- Let me see. - It's nothing.
Jenny, what's wrong?
It's nothing. What's up?
What did Naomi say?
She didn't even ask the price for the silk dress.
She's willing to pay whatever we request.
Jenny, you really are incredible.
I'd love to give you less work,
but people keep asking for you,
so I feel like it's going to be impossible.
By the way, where's Man Su?
Man Su.
What happened to your suit?
It's nothing.
Look at all these stains. Did you fall somewhere?
And what's that scar on your face?
I ran into a rude punk,
so I taught him a lesson.
A rude punk? Who's that?
I ran into him by accident outside. It's nothing to be worried about.
I didn't know you also knew how to fight.
Mother, can I get a glass of water?
- Okay, wait here. - Okay.
What happened?
Did you guys fight?
Yes.
You punched a guy who came from so far away?
I did start the fight,
but he hit me a lot more.
I'm relieved to hear that you got hit a lot more.
What in the world did you do?
It wasn't a big deal.
Don't worry.
Here you go, Man Su.
Thank you, Mother.
Should I apply some ointment on your face?
No, it's okay.
I made lunch reservations for us,
so we should go eat.
Should we do that? What do you say, Jenny?
I don't want to go. You guys can go without me.
I'm tired all of a sudden, so I want to go home and rest.
Jenny, you're going to go home?
You're supposed to work until late.
I'm not feeling very well.
Enjoy your lunch.
- Jenny. - Mother.
Just let her go.
How can I do that when Oh Eun Seok is in Japan?
You have no idea how persistent he can be.
Oh Eun Seok is probably on his way to the airport.
How do you know that?
I already checked. His flight is scheduled to leave soon.
Really?
Yes, Mother.
So you can let Jenny be alone. She'll be fine now.
Man Su, you know me so well.
When did you check all this?
You should go after Jenny and take her home.
Okay, Mother.
Now that Oh Eun Seok is gone,
I can finally live in peace.
- Jenny! - Stop following me.
Let's go to my car. I'll drive you home.
Man Su.
- Please stop. - You know I can't stop.
But you already saw how I was with Eun Seok today.
That doesn't matter to me.
I'm telling you not to waste your time.
- I don't think of it as a waste. - But I don't like...
I'm going through something really difficult right now,
and it's something you won't ever be able to handle or imagine.
So please stop bothering me.
Oh Eun Seok...
is a very bad man.
What?
Your mother was right.
Ever since you met that guy, you've become so down.
Why do you look so unhappy when you just met someone you like?
I heard he upset your mother back when you guys were in Seoul...
and that he even caused you guys to have a quarrel.
Now, I finally understand.
He didn't do any of that on purpose. It's because something happened.
You and your mother used to be so close.
But he brought doubt and anxiety into the relationship.
How can anyone like that be good?
If he really cares about you,
he shouldn't make you worry about such petty things.
He should be telling you that it's not a big deal...
and make sure you feel at ease.
You don't even know what it is to say it's not a big deal.
I would never make you feel unhappy...
regardless of how devastating something can be.
So you'd even hide the truth from me?
The truth can wait until you're fully ready to handle misfortunes.
What kind of nonsense...
What kind of nonsense is that?
Do you even have the slightest idea...
about what's happening to me right now, Man Su?
Yes, I know.
What do you know?
That's why I can't leave your side.
Please...
Please stop beating around the bush and making it hard to understand.
Just keep it simple, and tell me what you know.
The firecracker incident on stage.
The pickpocket incident in Seoul.
What...
about them?
I don't know what Oh Eun Seok told you.
But what you see isn't always what you get.
You...
knew everything?
Even the culprit?
Really?
You knew...
who the culprit was all along?
That wasn't important to me.
Then what's important to you?
You already know I don't like you and that I'm bothered by you!
But you continue to follow me around and treat my mom...
like she's your mother-in-law. Is that what's important to you?
Yes, that's what's important to me.
I'm very angry right now.
So you'd better answer my questions very carefully.
Okay.
So you knew...
that I got pickpocketed?
Yes.
Even the culprit?
Probably.
Yes.
And you think...
it's better...
that I don't know about any of that stuff?
Yes.
I told you to answer carefully because I'm angry right now.
I did answer carefully.
If that's what you think,
this is my answer.
(Shady Mom-in-law)
You blocked Eun Seok's number,
and you even sent him a text pretending like it was me.
Did you...
I met Oh Eun Seok, the guy you hate so much.
I met up with him, and he told me everything.
You're just going to believe him and think I'm the culprit?
Then who would've done something like that?
If that really happened... Jenny, are you...
Are you what?
