You saw him that day, didn't you?
Was he fine then?
If he wasn't, tell me what happened!
- What happened? - Fine, I killed him!
I killed Father!
Are you satisfied?
What are you saying?
Why would you?
Why?
- Mother, it's not that. - It's true.
I confronted Father.
I told him I was going to live my life free from Father and Jeokhyeonjae.
I'm sure that shocked him. Yes.
I killed Father.
- Stop it! - Mother, you should know that.
- Yu-min! - Just pretend you never had a son like me.
- Yu-min! - Mother! Mother!
What you're saying is...
Yu-min was home on the night his father passed?
- Yes. - Why, of course.
Of course, he could have come home.
But why is he saying it was his fault? What does that mean?
I'm not sure either, Mother.
I wanted to find out what happened,
but he thought I was blaming him and got quite angry.
Be that as it may,
how could he say that he killed his father?
- If he really collapsed during a confrontation with Yu-min... - It can't be.
You're right. Regardless, he is his son.
There's no way he would have just left.
Bok-Hui, what are you accusing Yu-min of?
It's nothing. Forget it.
Are you saying Man-pyeong died because of Yu-min? Is it?
- Aunt Hwa-ran, please... - You're even worse!
Must you always give him such a hard time?
Oh, my poor Yu-min!
Do you really think he'd do that to the father who raised him?
Would he have just stood by and watched?
He would have tried to give him CPR or something!
I wouldn't put much thought into it.
Are not filial ties of a heavenly order?
What was all that raucous about?
All that running around for the funeral must have given me wrinkles.
I can't believe that prick called me ma'am.
It was the most humiliating moment of my life!
I'll never let that happen again!
Mom, what's wrong? Did something happen?
What are you more scared of, a 5,000 dollar debt or a 10,000 dollar debt?
What kind of question is that?
Of course, a 10,000 debt scares me more.
- The bigger the debt, the scarier it is. - Right?
Yes, you're absolutely right.
I looked everywhere, but couldn't find anything that looked like a ledger.
- If it's not in the house, where is it? - What should I do?
Find out if there's a safe under Cha Man-pyeong's name.
We can take our time...
now that the old man is gone,
and his son has fallen by the wayside.
- There's no need to rush. - Yes.
Yes, please do your best to find her.
I'll try to work within Hwangryong Group.
The picture I sent you is the only one I have.
That's what happens when you enlarge it?
That's too bad. Please try to find out more information.
Are you hiring people to find Won Se-yeong?
- Yes. - Fine, find her if you must.
If you're that curious, you should.
However, let it be just that.
Find out how she's doing and let it go.
Don't let her meet Se-jong. It'll only hurt him more.
- Un-Gil. - Here, I set up another meeting with Hwangryong Distributors.
Also, I'm not your secretary. I can't do everything for you.
You should hire another person to help you.
I'll take care of that myself.
Ms. So, take a look at this.
I got this out front.
- Doesn't this woman look like Director Hwang? - What?
Perhaps.
Her slit eyes does have some resemblance.
But her name is Won Se-yeong.
You're right.
- Her slit eyes are so similar to mine, aren't they? - Right?
That's because you're such a cat-eyed beauty.
Do you have so much time on your hands?
Especially you, Ms. So.
You must be done preparing for our last home shopping show.
Yes? Yes... Of course... Yes.
I'll look forward to it then.
- I'm so sorry! - I'm so sorry!
Can you go and bring me some more of those fliers?
What will you use them for?
I'm going to take them home and use them as a dart board.
Why that...
(Have you seen this person?)
Kang Du-mul, why are you trying to look for me?
Why are you doing this?
I was feeling so distraught that...
I came straight after the burial.
- What is this about? - Director Hwang, Hwang Se-Hui,
I want to leave Yu-min in your hands.
I think you're the only answer for him.
If we leave Yu-min like this, he'll live his whole life in that hole.
I endured so much to see him do well in life.
I can't see him give up on his life like that.
Well,
what can I do?
I know that you like Yu-min.
I knew right off the bat.
You couldn't do anything about it since he's married,
but I'm sure you feel something special for him.
Right?
I won't deny it.
Then, you should try to take him.
I'll help you.
I'll do what I can to help you in any way.
Just as you wanted, I want you...
to have Yu-min.
(Director Hwang)
What is this?
Why did you let her in my room?
Director Hwang let me in.
What reason would you have to meet her?
Because I am your mother.
I knew you'd be out wandering like this,
so I asked her where you're staying. Why?
If you're done, please leave.
What are you going to do now?
I hear you were the reason Man-pyeong passed away.
I'm sure it was just a case of bad luck.
It's not like you wanted him to die from a hemorrhage.
Let's just say it was an accident.
What are you trying to say with that?
The water is spilt now, and there's no turning back.
Will you be able to act as the eldest of Jeokhyeonjae now?
How will you do that...
when Man-pyeong's ghosts are all over the house!
- What are you trying to say? - Don't you get it?
You went around saying you killed him. How are you going to fix that?
Will you even be able to face the family?
Listen carefully, Cha Yu-min.
Stop hiding out here. Just dust yourself off and leave.
Don't look back on that Jeokhyeonjae and make a fresh start.
That's the only way for you, me, Yu-Na,
and ultimately Jun-yeong to survive this.
Think of Jun-yeong.
Do you want her to turn out like you?
Do you want her to live her whole life...
being weighed down by what her father did?
Mother...
My dear...
I couldn’t sleep, so I thought I'd organize his things.
- You must be quite lonely. - That goes without saying.
I know how much he hates the cold.
I hope he's not cold inside the ground.
I should have sent him in a pair of woolens.
Mother...
You did the right thing, Mo Hwa-ran.
This is the only way to save my children.
- Mother, breakfast is ready. - All right.
How are things going with Cha Yu-min?
I heard his father passed away.
Have heard from him?
I thought he'd need some time to think, so I'm waiting for him.
That way, he'll truly become a part of Hwangryong.
What if he can't?
His father's death may become another shackle for him.
He's a smart man, so I trust he'll make the right decision.
- All right. I'll be right out. - Okay.
Oh!
What's all that?
- It stinks. - I got some seafood to take to Jeokhyeonjae.
- Why? - I want to make them some food.
They must be tired after the funeral.
You're a busy man yourself. Why go out of your way like that?
Take me with you, Dad. Can I go after school?
Of course. I wouldn't want to go without you.
Mr. Gang...
Aren't you impressed? I brought all the finest ones.
You didn't have to do this.
Thank you.
I was wondering what I should make for Mother. She's so out of energy.
It's not just her. I'm also doing this for you, Teacher Oh.
- Really? - You just went through a major ordeal.
You look just as exhausted as she does.
- I'm all right. - Please take care of yourself.
If you damage your health looking out for others,
you're only doing them a disservice.
What kind of person is so selfless?
Thank you, Mr. Gang.
About what? Didn't you just hear what I said?
I'm angry at you.
I'm being burdened because you haven't been taking care of yourself.
All right. I'm sorry.
And thank you.
Good grief!
Se-jong, you must have come to see Jun-yeong.
- I came to see Kkobugi. - Is that so?
Mr. Cha, why don't you believe me?
What did I do?
- Love is a beautiful thing. - Mr. Cha!
Stop it, you're frightening Kkobugi.
Here.
This tastes amazing!
I am quite the cook.
- Eat up, Jun-yeong. - Okay. It's so delicious.
Even the texture is perfect. How did you do this?
Indeed. Didn't you all know how good a cook he is?
Man-pyeong...
always loved to eat clam soup.
Mother...
Excuse me for a second.
- While you're here, could you help us with some chores? - Sure.
What do you need help with?
Can you help me fix the gutter?
Without any men in the house...
Actually, it's not that...
Geez...
It's all my fault.
Mother? Mother, what's wrong?
Mother! Please wake up!
Mother!
- Mr. Cha, water. - Okay.
Mother, are you okay?
Here,
- Ma'am, get on my back. - I'm all right.
No, Mother. You have to go to the hospital this time.
Here.
She went without Driver Cho?
Yes. She left saying it was for a personal matter.
- Look into it. Find out where she went. - Yes, sir.
You're keeping secrets now?
- I looks like you would have had serious migraines. - Yes.
Does it look really bad?
The optic nerve has deteriorated quite a lot since your last checkup.
Then, what's going to happen now?
There are individual differences,
but you'll have about six months at the most.
Does that mean in six months...
There's a high chance you'll go blind.
I told you I'm all right. You didn't have to bring me here.
Still, it's nice to know there's nothing wrong.
I won't be able to live with myself if something happens to you too.
I'll go and get the car.
I'll get your medicine. Please wait here.
All right.
Mommy!
Get up!
Look where you're going!
I'm sorry. Is he all right?
Can't you see? You need to watch where you're going.
She didn't do anything wrong.
I saw what happened, and your son was the one running around.
What's so wrong with a kid running?
Kids may run around,
but a mother should know better.
- I can't believe this. - The boy looks a little shocked, so try to comfort him.
How is your hand?
I told you not to run.
You should go to the nurse and ask her for some ointment.
Okay. Thank you.
Seon-woo, Mun-ho,
what am I going to do if I go blind?
What if I go blind before I ever see you again?
What do I do then?
Thank you.
Thanks to you, I was able to take Mother comfortably to the hospital.
Are you going to thank me all day?
I'm just thankful.
You don't have to mention it.
We're close enough to forget such formalities.
We're close?
Am I not a part of the Jeokhyeonjae family?
You are.
You're family.
What do they think they're doing?
How could she smile like that with what's going on with Yu-min?
I really can't stand the sight of this!
Bok-Hui, I heard you went to the hospital.
Yes. The kids insisted that I go.
That's because you didn't eat properly...
and strained yourself too much.
Don’t worry.
By the way,
- about what we said about Yu-min... - Oh, it's all right.
It is true Yu-min came home that night.
You know Yu-min doesn't show it,
but he cares deeply for you and Man-pyeong.
Compared to you, I'm nothing more than the dirt under his shoes.
What kind of talk is that?
I was hoping Yu-min would come home by now.
Oh dear...
Did you meet him?
Did he say he's not coming home?
I really...
didn't want to have to say this.
Do you know why Yu-min left and is having trouble with Soon-Nam?
It’s all because of money.
Since Yu-min left the hospital, he has no income.
Soon-Nam is in the same boat.
Now with the school closed down, she has no way to make a living.
Once poverty enters through the door,
love exits out the window. Haven't you heard?
What? What leaves?
At their age, they have to spend a lot of money.
If they're going to pay for Jun-yeong's surgery in a few years,
they need to save up as much as they can,
but they're spending their savings.
It would be strange if they were on good terms.
That's why I was thinking, Bok-Hui.
I have a really good idea.
It's true.
I confronted Father.
I told him I was going to live my life free from Father and Jeokhyeonjae.
I'm sure that shocked him. Yes.
I killed Father.
Stop it!
Think of Jun-yeong.
Do you want her to turn out like you?
Do you want her to live her whole life...
being weighed down by what her father did?
This is Cha Yu-min.
You should go and lie down.
I was thinking about Yu-min.
Have you tried to call him?
After the way he left,
I'd be surprised if he answered your calls.
From what he said,
I'm sure he was troubled by how he had confronted his father.
And he just said that because he thought we were blaming him.
Though he may seem cruel, let's try to understand him.
Tell him to come home.
- Mother... - How much longer are you two going to live apart?
Whether you live here or out there, you should be together.
Go on and give him a call.
Don't just sit around because he's not answering your calls.
Go out and try to find him.
Before we start our meeting, there's someone I want to introduce.
This is Cha Yu-min, the strategic adviser for our new brand.
Hello, my name is Cha Yu-min.
I look forward to working with you.
What were you thinking, bringing him on board?
Didn't I tell you we don't know what he might scheming?
Why are you trying to crush me like this?
How is hiring him tantamount to crushing you?
I'll ask one more question.
Why do you hate Jeokhyeonjae so much?
Didn't Head Master Cha Man-pyeong pass away? What more is there?
Did you forget Cha Yu-min is Cha Man-pyeong's son?
Like father, like son. Who's to say Cha Yu-min won't try to give us trouble?
That means there's still something that's making you feel uneasy...
enough to make you this anxious.
Stop trying to put words in my mouth.
I just wanted you to be more critical.
If you like him that much, hire him.
It should be fine as long as he doesn't cause any trouble.
- I'm very sorry about what happened to your father. - Yes.
- Why did you want to see me? - Now,
I no longer have to overcome my father's opposition.
I wanted you to know you won't be taking on any risk.
I'd like to start work as soon as possible.
All right.
However, I have one condition.
I want you to be on my side, not Se-hui's.
Can you do it?
I need someone on my side...
until I find Sun-woo and Mun-ho.
I want you to be on my side, not Se-hui's.
Can you do it?
Why didn't you tell? There are so many things to prepare.
All I need is a desk.
That won't do. You are our adviser after all.
Let's go to my office first.
I'll introduce you to the staff and get your papers.
- Hi, Soon-Nam. What is it? - Sorry to be a bother,
- but is your director in her office right now? - I'm not sure.
Psst!
I think she's at a meeting. Why?
I need to go inside the building. Can you let me in?
- Yes. This is So Myeong-ja from the Planning Team. - Ms. So?
You came late, and you're already busy.
I'm sorry for being late.
I have an announcement. Everybody come around.
This is Cha Yu-min, who'll be joining our Planning Team, as of today...
as our new strategic adviser.
Nice to meet you. I'm Cha Yu-min.
He will play a major role in Hwangryong Group's new brand.
I've been working quite a long time to have him hired.
What is that look about?
Does Soon-Nam know about this or what?
Is that why she said she's coming here?
We haven't gotten any calls from the Planning Department.
It can't be.
Please give me a second.
You don't know how worried I was.
About what?
I thought you might not come back...
from Jeokhyeonjae, your wife, your daughter, and your father.
I thought you may never leave.
That won't ever happen.
Does that mean...
you've cut ties with your family there?
To put it more precisely, will you be leaving your wife?
I'll promise you one thing.
There is no way I'll be going back to Jeokhyeonjae.
All right, then.
I'm fine with that for now.
We're at work.
("Teacher Oh Soon-Nam")
Cha Yu-min! Cha Yu-min! Cha Yu-min!
She brought Cha Yu-min in to antagonize me.
How could you do this? What was that I saw then?
It's because of that woman, Hwang Se-Hui, isn't it?
Yes, it is. I don't care.
You bastard! Are you in your right mind?
This is why I hate Jeokhyeonjae. This is why I'm sick and tired!
Whatever it is you died for won't change anything.
Now, I can't stop or go back.
