(Episode 40)
Jung Woo Hyuk?
Jaclyn. Do you need money?
Why are you here?
What are you doing here?
I own this place.
Jung Capital...
The wealthy owner of the company, even known in Myeong-dong,
is you?
Take a seat first.
I need a lot of money.
If you're going to lend me a petty amount, I'm leaving.
Then we must talk about your loan qualifications.
Do you have collateral?
Oh, right.
I won't accept WJ Entertainment's investment share.
I don't have one.
I heard you were getting kicked out of the gallery.
Then you won't have a salary.
Nor will you have money in your bank account...
since you got conned.
You're not qualified for a loan.
Jung Woo Hyuk. I'm Jaclyn.
Shouldn't you lend me money with just my name,
even without collateral?
Who do you think you are?
You are penniless.
You're no different from a bum who got all her money scammed.
Who are you calling a bum?
I won't let this bring me down.
(Jung Capital)
Didn't you trample over Shin Ju Kyung...
because she had nothing?
You thought your money equaled power...
and made her shed tears of agony.
Those who make others suffer will end up...
suffering themselves, too.
Don't compare me to the likes of Shin Ju Kyung.
How about you go through the same thing?
Get thrown away by Jang Gi Yun,
who mistreats people with no money, and shed tears of agony.
Going broke like this is you reaping what you sowed.
They say what goes around comes around.
Leave. I don't lend money to bums.
Hee Jae knew you were rich and approached you on purpose,
didn't she?
She doesn't know I work here.
What's more, she's not a materialistic woman like you.
Do you really think so?
Hee Jae hired a fake father and fooled everyone else.
She's crazy about money.
She must've gotten close to you and Jang Gi Yun...
all because of money.
The two of you are being fooled.
I can't listen to you insult my woman anymore.
Do you know Hee Jae is using Soo A as an excuse to drop by our house?
Yes, I do.
You do?
And you're just letting her do that?
Sorry to tell you this, but I trust her.
Unlike you and Gi Yun,
Hee Jae and I won't waver even if someone tries to.
Get going right away.
(Jung Capital)
Seo Hee Jae.
You already have the powerful Woo Hyuk by your side.
So why are you even after my husband?
Just why?
I really have no idea why Jaclyn...
is letting me down and humiliating me to the public.
I heard a rumor saying...
the gallery was closing due to Jaclyn getting scammed,
and even WJ Entertainment was in a pinch.
Even if Jaclyn goes bankrupt, WJ won't be affected in any way.
Weren't you going to invest in a movie?
Are you all right financial-wise?
The deposit deadline for the investment is nearing.
I must find a way.
From what I heard,
you signed a contract that prohibits you from divorcing Jaclyn.
How did you know that?
Jaclyn came by and told us in person...
that she would forever have you by her side.
To use money against you, her husband,
and demand such a contract.
What an unbelievable woman.
And to think she's your wife.
She should've known how shameful it was, not show it off to you.
I finally understand why people call Jaclyn the real boss of WJ...
and you the puppet boss.
It must be because Jaclyn looks down on you...
and goes wild.
My pride, WJ, and reputation Jaclyn has brought down...
will be recovered.
How will you do that?
You'll find out in time.
What? What do you mean by that?
"Jaclyn has gone broke?"
She got conned an awful amount of money.
Last time, she lost money to cryptocurrency.
And this time, she used up all her fortune on fake paintings...
and became penniless.
It seems that the gallery will close down soon...
due to low operating funds.
What?
That fool.
She should've given that money...
to Gi Yun before she got scammed.
How disgraceful.
She really stained Gi Yun's reputation.
Now that the rude wench Jaclyn is broke,
she won't be able to talk back to you.
If she has a sense of conscience, she should treat me with respect.
Jang Gi Yun turned away from Jaclyn for good...
after she got conned.
That's no surprise.
With how nasty Jang Gi Yun is, he won't miss this chance...
to end his relationship with Jaclyn.
I will also seize this chance...
and have Gi Yun in the palm of my hand.
I will take Jaclyn's money...
and use that to squeeze Gi Yun by the throat.
When Jaclyn can no longer hold out...
and gets completely thrown away by Gi Yun,
I will tell her to return to the US.
Making Jaclyn break away from Gi Yun for good.
That's the last favor I can do for Jaclyn.
I must join Gi Yun's family...
and go to WJ Entertainment.
Must you transfer to WJ?
I need to start working there to find out...
the corrupt things Jang Gi Yun has done in secret.
Only then will my revenge end sooner.
What about Woo Hyuk?
I'll end it with him.
Before I do that, I have someone to meet.
(Director Seo Hee Jae)
Director Seo?
Yes.
Come to my office. I'll send you the address.
Was it Director Seo?
(Jung Capital)
That's right.
It looked like she didn't know...
Woo Hyuk was the heir of Jung Capital.
I don't think Woo Hyuk told her yet.
That was why I told her to come here.
It's so that she doesn't look down on my son.
Then I'll stop by another time.
And I mean when you really go bankrupt.
- Give it back! - Stop it for once!
I'm really sick and tired of you, Jaclyn.
Let's go, Hee Jae.
Seo Hee Jae.
You have no idea how I came this far.
And what I went through after getting abandoned by my mom...
and adopted into the US.
Nor how much I endured to survive.
I won't let you bring me down like this.
You...
You're messing with the wrong person.
I will get my revenge...
for destroying me.
I will do everything and anything to protect what is mine.
Welcome.
(Jung Capital)
Hi.
Why did you want to see me here?
She's the chairwoman of Jung Capital.
"Chairwoman?"
Soo Ho. Give us...
some privacy, please.
Are you in shock...
to see me here as the chairwoman?
Yes, a little.
Woo Hyuk didn't tell me anything.
He only found out recently...
after I quit my cleaning job.
Right. I see.
Are you still unable to tell me why you had to lie about...
having a wealthy father?
I'm sorry.
In that case, I won't pry into this anymore.
And why did you want to see me?
Because I thought you'd be worried about Woo Hyuk.
I'll end it with him.
So please do not worry about this.
Can I really trust you?
Yes.
His birthday is coming up in a few days,
so I'll celebrate that with him...
and stop seeing him after.
I plan to leave his side...
and start working at WJ Entertainment.
I can feel how much...
you are in love with my son.
Anyway, thank you for deciding to stop seeing him.
- Please excuse me. - I don't care if I seem selfish.
All I want is my son's happiness.
You do not seem like a bad person,
but a woman with a secret is dangerous.
It's because you're a mother.
A mother can...
always become selfish for her children.
That is why...
I understand you completely.
Yes.
It's because I'm a mother.
What is this, Mother?
I'm going to donate kimchi to the children's home tomorrow,
so salt the cabbage,
then finish making kimchi before you sleep.
How am I supposed to do this?
It's not even your day to volunteer and make kimchi there tomorrow.
Are you abusing me as your daughter-in-law...
because I no longer have money?
Abusing you?
You aren't busy anymore because your gallery shut down.
To this day, you've been busy doing your business outside,
and you haven't done any chores at home.
It's about time you learned how to do housework.
Instead of getting conned and ruining Gi Yun's reputation,
stay home and show him your support.
I will not do that.
(Dadeum Napa Cabbage)
Look at that girl.
She's picking a fight with me, isn't she?
Honey, your mother just told me to make kimchi.
How can she treat me like this?
Jaclyn, how can you be so shameless?
If you got conned and lost your entire fortune,
shouldn't you apologize first?
I'm about to lose the chance to invest in that movie because of you.
I'll recover everything.
My gallery is now closed, so give me a job at WJ.
I'm going to work there.
Didn't you do enough damage when you ruined your gallery?
Are you going to ruin WJ Entertainment too?
How will you be of any help at the agency?
You need to stop running wild and stay home.
If you won't give me a job there,
return the investment I made for the VK business immediately.
I may have lost my fortune, but I have shares at your agency.
You cannot hold me in disdain for any reason.
I'll return it in three months, according to the contract.
Are you going to leave me now that I'm broke?
I wanted to end this ages ago but held myself back.
I wanted to leave you the moment I found out...
you tried to stab my back with Na Seung Pil,
and I only held back because of my business.
But I won't have to put up with you anymore.
Gi Yun, you'll never be able to leave me.
(Contract Prohibiting Divorce)
This contract is now useless,
and so are you.
You are useless to me now.
So...
you better end it quietly while I'm asking you nicely.
Jang Gi Yun.
I will not let you leave me.
Why did you bring me here?
Because of a man named Director Cha, a guy I also know.
He suddenly opened a film company...
and rented out an office at Mom's building by coincidence.
And?
He doesn't have a great reputation.
He's in debt because of gambling, and some say he does drugs too.
Can you find out if it's true?
I should've stayed as a detective.
Why do you need so much information?
Please help me out.
Hey.
I heard Jaclyn went bust,
so it'd be impossible for Jang Gi Yun to invest in the movie.
Now that Jaclyn is broke, Jang Gi Yun's turn is next.
He already signed with famous actors like Song Jung Min and Jung Il Sang,
so I doubt he'd go bust.
I'm home.
Hey, you're back.
Let me get changed.
Okay. Right.
Mr. Hwang, do you have something to say to me?
Well, nothing in particular.
Is your mother well?
Sorry?
Woo Hyuk.
Some people say,
"We shouldn't bother to try the impossible."
And?
Right here, in my heart,
I have this impossible hope.
But...
even if my hope is impossible,
don't you think it'll be okay just to look at it?
What? What do you mean?
I'll just keep my eyes there.
I don't think I understand what you mean.
It's this thing.
President Park,
it must be tough to get questioned by the prosecution.
You've become the party leader, so please pull some strings.
To be frank, my biggest suspicion is...
the illegal loan I gave out...
for the VK Media business because of you.
I need you to stop the prosecution's investigation now.
I believe you're also...
under questioning for your child's wrongful college admission,
not just your approval of the illegal loan.
It's tough to do something about a sensitive subject...
like corrupt college admission.
Then will you let me get locked up in prison?
I didn't say that.
Do whatever it takes to get me out of the prosecution's questioning.
I won't go down alone...
if I end up going to prison.
I have more than one or two things I can expose about you.
I'm sure you know what I mean.
How bold of him.
How dare he try to blackmail me?
Hello. I'm Yang Bit Na, and it's my first day here.
It's nice to meet you.
Yes, right.
No, it's my pleasure to meet you.
It's my pleasure too.
I look forward to working with you.
Feel free to let me know if something bothers you.
Okay. What should I do first?
First off, you can figure out what your job is.
You can take your time.
Eun Young, can you make a copy?
- I'll do it. - No.
Take your time.
Then let me clean up the break room.
- Goodness, no. - Over here.
- We'll do that too. - Yes.
Why won't they make me do anything?
What's with everyone?
We can't make Yang Hee Chan's daughter work.
You're right.
If we make her work, we may get on Chairman Jang's bad side.
That'd be trouble.
Gosh, I'm bored.
Goodness, do you have work today?
You don't. Why are you so dressed up?
Well...
I have to go and look...
at my impossible hope.
Hey.
- Why are you so dressed up? - I have to meet someone.
I have to go. I'm busy.
What was that?
Is he dating someone?
- Hey. - Hello.
What brings you here, Mr. Hwang?
I was just passing by.
Hello.
(Jung Capital)
This is for you.
Why did you bring this for me?
You let me borrow money without any collateral,
yet I never even had a chance to buy you a decent meal.
Goodness, you didn't have to.
Right.
Goodness. I've made a huge mistake.
Although there was a beautiful flower right here,
I just had to buy a bouquet.
Excuse me?
You're like a flower. I'm serious.
Apparently, Jang Gi Yun is running all over the place for money.
I can't let this chance go to waste.
I will use the money I took from Jaclyn right now.
I heard you were running around asking for money...
to invest in the movie.
I want to help you out.
You will?
My dad must've taken pity on me when he left...
after meeting Jaclyn.
He sent me some money to use as I wanted.
Are you saying you'll invest the money your father gave you...
in me?
That's right.
What's the condition?
There's none.
I can't do that.
Let me give you a portion of my WJ shares.
You really don't have to.
Then allow me to work for WJ.
Does that mean...
you have finally decided to look down on the world together...
with me?
Yes. I want to join you, Gi Yun.
Yes, Gi Yun?
You're coming home with Hee Jae?
Oh, I see. Soo A will be delighted.
Got it. I'll make a feast. Bye.
It's broad daylight, and yet she's still in bed.
Wake up, Jaclyn!
Why?
Hee Jae's coming over. Get us some groceries.
What was that?
Did you just tell me to go grocery shopping...
to make food for Hee Jae?
That's right. I doubt you have any money.
So use this.
Have Ms. Kim do it.
I told Ms. Kim to take a break from work.
- How come? - My daughter-in-law is...
at home doing nothing. There's no need for a housekeeper.
Mother!
I was told Hee Jae invested a large sum of money in Gi Yun.
She helped out with your husband's business.
So isn't it your job as a wife to prepare a nice meal for her?
Leave this house if you don't want to do that.
Mother.
You're dying to kick me out of this house, aren't you?
But it won't go as you please.
What's wrong?
My mom used to make braised half-dried pollack.
I loved it when I was little.
Do you miss your mom?
No. I feel horrible, all right?
I was ordered to make food...
since Seo Hee Jae was coming by our house.
Don't do it if you don't feel like it.
No. I will do it.
When Hee Jae comes,
I will prove to her that I'm Gi Yun's wife, Soo A's mom,
and Mother's daughter-in-law.
Gi Yun and your mother-in-law are being awful to you, aren't they?
Don't let them insult you. Just return to the US.
I won't.
Where I should be is next to Gi Yun.
I joined you because you didn't want to eat alone.
But I've changed my mind.
Even though you're being mistreated at home,
you're still all over Gi Yun like some fool.
And I can't stand that.
"Eunhye Nursing Home?"
(Eunhye Nursing Home)
What is this, Seung Pil?
It's where your mother is.
That woman...
Didn't she go missing after Eun Ha passed away?
I found her not long ago and started taking care of her.
Go visit her whenever you miss your mother.
This scumbag Na Seung Pil.
Who asked you to find my mom?
I will not visit her.
Not even if I die.
Hee Jae, what are you up to?
I'll keep you from danger no matter what you do.
In my own way.
All right.
Great.
I got the investment money.
Oh Na Hee and Yoon Ji Tae have signed the casting contract.
- Please take good care of us. - Likewise.
By the way, who is the lady beside you?
Oh, her name is Seo Hee Jae. She's my business partner.
I was shocked, you know?
She's the spitting image of Director Shin Ju Kyung.
- Please produce a good movie. - Of course.
Listen, Chairman Jang.
I'm going on a business trip to Southeast Asia to find locations.
Let's have a drink after I return. Okay?
- Okay. - I'll have a good booze ready.
I'm in your care now.
Welcome.
Have you been well, Soo A?
Welcome.
I poured my heart into making a feast.
Thank you.
I'm looking forward to the meal you cooked.
Jaclyn. Let's talk before our dinner.
Mother. Please take Soo A and give us some privacy.
What? All right.
Let's go, Soo A.
What's this?
(Divorce Application with Parental Authority)
"Divorce application?"
Let's end this.
Aren't you being too cruel to me, Gi Yun?
How can you give this to me in front of Hee Jae?
Gi Yun can no longer live with you, Jaclyn.
It breaks my heart to destroy one's family.
But I decided to accept Gi Yun's feelings.
I'm sorry, Jaclyn.
Why on earth would I divorce you?
I will never agree to this.
Mother, let's have dinner.
Let's eat, Soo A!
Jaclyn won't back down so easily.
Don't worry.
When you join our family,
she'll leave voluntarily.
When will you move in?
As soon as possible...
after I finish my job at NA Entertainment.
What's with this atmosphere?
I asked Jaclyn for a divorce.
What?
Bring Soo A with you. Let's have dinner.
No, it's okay. You three can enjoy it.
With how things are, I'm worried something might happen...
when Soo A is present.
I'll eat later with Soo A.
Well, go ahead.
Jaclyn, you made seaweed fulvescens soup.
But you hate this.
I do.
But you like it, just like your father.
- Hee Jae, enjoy. - Sure.
Jaclyn! What are you doing?
Gi Yun.
Do you remember how your father...
threw this soup all over me because of you?
I made seaweed fulvescens soup because you didn't seem to remember.
When you lost the chairmanship to Shin Ju Kyung,
when you were at the lowest point of your life,
I was the one by your side.
How could you ask me for a divorce after I gave you everything?
If you want a divorce, be ready to lay down your life.
Darn it, Jaclyn.
How disgraceful.
This was exactly what I wanted.
You two attacking each other...
and loathing one another.
Did you have fun with Soo A?
Your birthday is in a few days, right?
Will you make time for me on that day?
I don't want to.
Woo Hyuk.
That's the day I leave you.
Dad.
(The Elegant Empire)
You want to split the investment...
I'm trying to run away with?
Things will hit the fan at WJ Entertainment tomorrow...
when he finds out Director Cha ran away with the money.
I have to think of a way to help Jang Gi Yun out of this danger.
Then he'll trust me and need me even more.
I'll move into your house tomorrow.
I'll do this to keep her safe,
even if she doesn't know.
