(Episode 97)
What's wrong?
Why are you in this state?
Woo Jin.
- Drink this. - Thanks.
Why are you here?
Ha Min said Mother...
had gone to see Su Jeong.
She asked me last night if I'd apologized.
I had a bad feeling, so I came over.
Why are you giving me that look?
Will you call Mom that...
to her face too?
No, not for a while.
You know why.
I could be suspected...
just for spending too much time with you.
You're pretty meticulous.
I lived with her for 30 years.
I know better than anyone...
what Min Kyung Hwa is like...
and how to handle her.
Why...
did Mother go...
to see Su Jeong?
To apologize.
She went there...
to apologize in your stead.
I was right, then.
You think she is slow and doesn't notice.
But that's not true.
She sees through people...
better than most,
you know.
That really bothers me...
a lot.
What do you like other than pureed soybean stew and soybean broth?
I'll make you everything you like.
I'll eat anything.
Really?
I'll make bulgogi for dinner. Come home to eat.
Your house here isn't leaking.
I'll keep scolding Woo Jin.
Tell me if Eui Ju is bad. I'll scold him too.
Ha Min and I feel so lonely.
I'm sure the chairwoman misses you too.
Let's live together.
Will you...
really side with me?
I will.
I promise.
When will you tell her?
Su Jeong, I mean.
This will happen more often.
You can't hide it forever.
I will for as long as I can.
I want her to know as late as possible.
And after that? What will you do then?
I don't know what happens then.
I did so little...
for her.
I want to...
make her as happy as I can for as long as I can.
I want Su Jeong...
to accomplish...
everything she wants.
And then...
You're a helpless romantic.
If you really care about her,
get operated on.
Why did you come in? You should take a longer break.
Did Eui Ju go out?
He didn't come in yet.
Didn't Eui Ju come to see you?
I called to tell him you weren't well.
Did you? He didn't come by.
Eui Ju.
You didn't go to see Su Jeong?
Why are you even later than her?
Oh, well,
I got a flat tire.
By the time it was fixed, I was too late.
That sounds dangerous. Are you okay?
You bet.
I'm your undying phoenix.
Goodness.
Are you sure you aren't very sick?
Why didn't you take a day off?
Your mother's cooking cheered me right up.
Did it?
Good for you, sweetie.
I can't stand this anymore.
This is workplace harassment.
Goodness.
Did you have to embarrass us like that?
What's wrong with calling my sweet darling "sweetie?"
Sugar. You shouldn't tiptoe around people too much.
Life is short.
"Sugar?"
Yes, sugar. What's wrong?
"Honey?" "Darling?" "My love."
Are you sure...
you aren't sick?
From now on, I'll call you all the pet names...
in the world.
Brace yourself.
What is it?
What?
Did Myung Chul say he'd help us keep the house?
Why should I?
With what money?
I'm sure you don't have any money.
You gave it all to Min Kyung Hwa.
You...
Do you want to fight like this...
in front of your daughter?
To be honest,
Mom did raise me until now.
Shouldn't you at least help her keep the house?
Listen, Ms. Choi.
Why do you ask that much when you never called me "Father?"
Or you two could get back together.
- What? - Hye Ra.
Here's how I feel.
I won't let you two ruin my life anymore.
So talk to each other and reach a consensus...
and do at least one thing.
I said my part. I'll leave you to talk.
Choi Hye Ra.
Hey.
What does she want us to do?
That means you're my mom's daughter now.
Is my honey my sister now too?
To be honest, I can't say I didn't blame her...
after my dad died.
Deep inside, I did resent her.
Yes, I know.
But if Dad were alive,
he wouldn't have liked that.
He liked Ms. Lee a lot.
Once I realized that,
I couldn't keep it up.
I had to stop.
I can't believe...
his photo fell at that moment.
A lot of things happen that you can't explain.
But that doesn't mean I forgave Woo Jin.
Mother also told me...
not to forgive him if I didn't want to.
Yes.
No one is forcing it on you.
It all depends on...
how you feel.
And I'm always on your side. You know that, right?
I think it's the ringtone I heard.
Hi, Mom. Me?
I'm about to have lunch with my wife.
Enjoy your meal too.
(Director Joo Woo Jin)
Hye Ra is upset, so I'll negotiate an alimony for her.
You'll what? "Negotiate?"
Hey.
Why are you mentioning alimony...
and not your slush fund?
I'm not in a position to get that back.
Oh, I see.
You can't touch the money you gave Min Kyung Hwa,
so you'll get your daughter divorced to cover her expenses?
You don't want even that?
Forget it, then.
How much...
do you think you can get her?
Will it be enough...
to secure this house and a decent living?
Do your part and get Hye Ra to sign the divorce papers.
And...
you.
Don't show yourself ever again. I beg of you.
Goodness.
Once I know I can keep this house,
I won't have to or want to see you again.
You're just Min Kyung Hwa's minion.
How dare you...
You're nothing compared to her.
What?
I bet my life and future on her.
If it weren't for Hye Ra,
you'd be in lockup for assaulting her.
How dare you attack someone like her?
Jang Myung Chul. Get back here.
You...
An alimony is all good,
but Hye Ra will threaten to kill herself...
if I mention divorce.
How am I to get her to agree?
Alimony?
Why should I pay her when she signed a prenup?
I'm aware of that, but things happen.
What? Did she say she wouldn't...
sign the papers if I didn't pay her?
It's Geum Han Yang,
not Hye Ra.
She lives for money, so she'll give in for small change.
Woo Jin said the divorce wasn't his priority.
At least give her some room to breathe.
You saw her.
She'll break her own leg if she thinks that will help.
So...
how much did she say she wanted?
Well...
Don't answer that. It was a stupid question.
If she'll give up her life for small change,
the amount doesn't matter.
Mr. Jang.
I've become a skeptic about our relationship.
Pardon?
You're relaying everything that woman says and demands.
I'm beginning to wonder if I had you all wrong.
Chairwoman.
I'm afraid you'll ask me to cough up your money if I say this,
but that's how I feel.
I don't see...
why I feel like I've dropped a few social classes.
It makes no sense.
Did you manage to talk to Mr. Jang?
Get out of my sight.
What's wrong?
What are you thinking? Why are you playing matchmaker?
You want us to get back together?
Complete strangers get married, and you two have me already.
It's not entirely impossible.
Hey!
There was another condition.
The house.
Did he say anything about it?
No. He didn't.
Woo Jin?
Who is...
- What? - Why are you here?
Oh, sorry.
Joo Woo Jin is here?
Woo Jin.
Mother.
How are you doing?
Well,
as you can see,
I'm not doing well, but I'm getting by.
You must be...
very concerned.
Why is he talking like he is not involved?
Yes.
Now that you know, perhaps you could give us some money.
Woo Jin.
Why did you come out of the blue?
I thought you and Mother...
would be worried.
Really?
Why are you suddenly so considerate?
Mother.
You look...
the worse for wear.
I brought some herbal medicine. I hope it makes you feel better.
Give me money instead.
Okay, thanks. I'll be sure to take it.
Don't worry too much...
about Hye Ra and I.
We have a plan.
I'm relieved if that's the case.
I wonder what the plan is.
Woo Jin.
I'm so touched.
You called my mom "Mother."
It's a first.
I thought that was what I called her. Didn't I?
You didn't.
But thank you.
That was nothing.
We're in the same boat now.
What?
You covered up what I did.
I'm very grateful for that.
Woo Jin. Don't think of it that way.
Don't call it "covering up."
Your flaw is mine too.
Do you think...
you can do something about Mr. Jang?
I'm not sure. He and Mom hate each other.
I wish Mom would try to win him back.
The reason I want him gone...
isn't just because of my mother.
I want you...
to cut ties with him as well.
Kelly Jung.
Do you know she disappeared?
- What? - No one is talking about it,
but I think...
Mr. Jang was behind it.
My mother would be connected, but the actual abduction...
Kelly Jung...
is well-known in the US too.
If the feds start investigating, we could all fall under suspicion.
Why us?
Kelly went after my mother and Mr. Jang's slush fund.
Wouldn't they investigate us too?
Not to mention...
what you did to Ji Woo.
You could be suspected...
of hurting her to hide the past.
Do you really...
not know anything?
No.
This is the first time I heard anything about that.
Okay.
I hope none of that is true.
The likelihood...
seems slim, though.
What's all that about?
Jang Myung Chul, that fool...
If this keeps going on,
we might really become homeless.
Auntie.
Ha Min.
I missed you so much.
Is your house all fixed?
Yes, it's all fixed.
There are no more leaks.
I'm so glad.
I was worried your house would get carried away.
Why would you worry about that?
Welcome home. Thank you.
- Hey. - Dad.
Welcome home.
This feels like a party.
Dad, Uncle, and Auntie are all here.
Did you go...
to see Su Jeong because of me?
What?
Oh, well, no.
I just...
wanted to apologize.
I did something wrong too.
Don't do that anymore.
Okay. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have...
I'll handle it.
I'll try to correct...
what I did wrong. So...
don't worry too much about me.
Okay. I won't.
And...
thank you.
For naming a plant after me...
and...
for going there to apologize in my stead.
Thank you.
No.
I'm your mom.
Why would you thank me for that?
Sleep well.
Eui Ju. Did you really not come to my old home today?
What?
No, I didn't.
You didn't?
Why? Are you upset?
No.
Is your car all fixed?
Yes.
What's this?
What is all this?
No.
No!
No.
No. Get off my things.
Go away!
What a nasty dream.
It's not good.
It's not right.
I must do something.
Get a grip, Geum Han Yang.
What do you want?
What...
do you want me to do?
What do you mean?
The red stickers on everything in my home.
They're driving me insane.
I lost five kilos.
Others say they gain weight after menopause.
I'm withering away.
Will you settle out of court?
You married into a great family.
A house like mine...
It's a drop of water in an ocean.
I don't know.
You know this isn't about money.
Yes. I know that.
You're doing this to make me pay because you hate me.
Yong Su Jeong.
I'll live...
with the guilt and remorse forever.
I'll do anything and everything you want.
Just...
call off the sequestration.
You know...
Hye Ra...
lost the baby, don't you?
We have...
no one to rely on now.
Can you really...
do anything?
Yes.
I'll do anything...
as long as it doesn't mean hurting Hye Ra.
You'll do anything...
I tell you to?
Yes.
I'll do everything.
My gosh.
What...
What are you wearing?
What's wrong with my outfit?
The house is a mess, and I'm stressed out.
I decided to cheer myself up.
What do you think?
Well,
where's Hye Ra?
Hye Ra?
She went out for some air.
She wanted to see me.
Take a seat and wait.
Did you have lunch?
It's way past lunchtime.
You're right. It is. Then...
Let's drink instead.
What is she up to?
This powder...
will make anyone who takes it...
tell the truth?
What are you doing in there?
Forget the alcohol and call Hye Ra!
Okay. I'm coming.
What got into you?
Would I want to drink with you in broad daylight?
What?
You won't drink with me because I'm not Min Kyung Hwa?
The thought of...
telling Hye Ra to get divorced...
breaks my heart.
You know...
how much she likes Woo Jin.
At first,
I thought she went after him because he was rich.
But...
the longer I observed, the more I realized I was wrong.
If we tell her to get divorced,
she might go...
and do something drastic.
The only two options she has now...
are to divorce for a lump sum or get kicked out penniless.
Do you think she doesn't know that?
She knows that too,
but she's still hanging on.
I feel...
so bad.
I feel sorry for her.
You're...
You know too.
Isn't that...
what love is like?
I can't believe you're talking about love.
- Goodness. - He drank it.
A ledger?
You said Jang Myung Chul...
and Min Kyung Hwa made a lot of transactions.
Yes, I did.
You saw Jang Myung Chul's ledger.
It's useless because he only wrote down what he received.
What I need is Min Kyung Hwa's ledger.
It has her transactions with Jang Myung Chul,
but also the money she got from others. That's the real deal.
Do you think...
Jang Myung Chul knows where it is?
He must.
He knows all there is to know about Min Kyung Hwa.
Do you have more wine?
What? I do have more.
You bet there's more.
Why is he acting so normal?
Isn't the powder working?
It must be working.
I just need to deal him the final blow.
Jang Myung Chul.
Hey, Jang Myung Chul.
Yes?
Here.
Look at this.
What...
What is this?
Just keep your eyes on it.
I saw on YouTube...
that this was the best way...
to put someone to sleep.
Hey. Jang Myung Chul.
Will you listen to my question...
and answer truthfully?
Yes.
Did you...
write down Min Kyung Hwa's secrets?
Secrets?
Yes. Something about her that's a weakness.
Do you think...
Min Kyung Hwa has a safe?
There's no safe.
That's not where you keep...
what's really important.
Yong Su Jeong! The car.
It must be in Min Kyung Hwa's car.
Will you settle with me now?
Do I get my house back?
Why is the soup so salty?
Hello, Minister Park.
Oh, dear.
No, I'll set off right away.
Tell me where the funeral hall is.
(The Brave Yong Su Jeong)
Is that worth believing?
Would Jang Myung Chul share that so easily?
I'll finalize Hye Ra's divorce with Director Joo within the day.
I'll make sure we never see Geum Han Yang or Hye Ra again.
Woo Jin can't take me back because of you.
Because you and my mother-in-law are sleeping together.
Woo Jin. Are you all right?
Open your eyes. Woo Jin.
