(All characters, organizations, and events in this drama are fictitious.)
(All child actors were shot under supervision.)
Why are you all so shocked?
Am I not allowed to be here?
Jaclyn.
What do you think you're doing, sneaking into my house like this?
Aren't I better than you atrocious lots...
who are hiding a living man...
to keep him dead?
He was in a coma.
Even if he was alive, he was not far from dead.
Jang Gi Yun.
Did you declare Father dead...
because Ju Kyung would've kept her chairwoman position...
if he had been alive?
Was that why you falsely charged Ju Kyung with murdering Father?
And you, Mother, did not stop your son?
Seo Hee Jae. Did you know Father was alive...
and used that against Gi Yun to make us get a divorce?
Jaclyn.
Your divorce with Gi Yun had nothing to do with this.
Babe. What do think will happen if I tell the world Father is alive?
You will become a scumbag...
for being an undutiful son to fulfill your greed.
WJ Entertainment will also be labeled as an immoral agency...
and go bankrupt.
No, Jaclyn. Don't do it.
Aren't you pregnant with Gi Yun's baby?
Don't do that to the father.
"The father?"
You must've forgotten that you beat me up...
because I wasn't pregnant with a boy.
I'm sorry, Jaclyn.
I had lost my mind and was furious because I got fooled by you.
Gi Yun can't go down like this.
Of course not. I neither want him to go down.
After all, I love him dearly.
What do you want?
Kick Hee Jae out.
Return my place she stole from me.
Break things off with her.
If not, I'll reveal that Father is alive.
But I don't love you.
That doesn't matter.
Even if you don't love me, pretend like you do and respect me.
We'll kick Hee Jae out.
So promise us you'll keep it a secret.
Mom!
Gi Yun. You should think about yourself first.
I can't let you get into trouble.
Too bad, Hee Jae.
Mother will kick you out.
Jaclyn. Don't you know that I can expose...
that Father is alive if I get kicked out of this house?
Hee Jae! Don't do this to us.
Seo Hee Jae. Jang Gi Yun will make the decision.
Father. I'll come again.
Jang Gi Yun!
Why did you have to declare me dead...
and make this mess?
You punk. Are you living with your right mind?
I'm not in the mood for your lecture!
That little...
Gi Yun!
Why didn't you just die? Why did you have to wake up?
How much longer will you get in Gi Yun's way?
You should've just died!
Did you lie that I was dead...
and pinned the murder on Ju Kyung?
How could you have done that to Ju Kyung?
You're going on about Ju Kyung when your son's life is on the line?
Your son is in grave danger, you son of a gun!
I raised him wrong.
Like you said,
I should've died.
I will kill Jaclyn!
Gi Yun.
Come on, Gi Yun. Calm down.
I will kill Jaclyn.
Gi Yun. Getting all worked up won't solve the problem, will it?
We should stay composed and come up with a solution.
Jaclyn's pushing me into the fiery pit.
I can't forgive her.
I'll leave this house.
For now, let's do as Jaclyn wants.
That'll buy us time to come up with a plan.
No. I can't have you leave just because of Jaclyn.
The more time we give her, the wilder she'll become.
So what will you do?
I'll put a stop to her.
Jaclyn...
I'll make sure she can't act up before me again.
(Jung Capital)
You did it on purpose?
Yes. While Gi Yun is busy dealing with Jaclyn,
it is my chance to open the secret safe.
But what if Gi Yun causes a serious problem?
That is why I must quickly open Gi Yun's secret safe.
Did you find a way...
I can get to the safe while avoiding the CCTV?
I found a professional hacker who can hack into the computer...
connected to the CCTV and control it remotely.
Great. Tell me when we'll do it, and I'll look for the safe.
Yang Hee Chan is currently meeting his wife.
You act like you're helping me,
but I'm sure you're planning something.
Hee Jae, I need to know what you're up to.
I'm still suspicious that you may be Shin Ju Kyung.
I came to make up with you, but must you be like this?
How can you force a reconciliation?
Then what? Should we keep acting like strangers?
What if Bit Na senses something?
For someone who thinks dearly of Bit Na,
how could you not know you had a son until now?
If you had made a woman pregnant,
you should've taken responsibility...
for her and the baby and not married me.
I had broken up with her before we married.
But she appeared soon after our marriage,
telling me she was pregnant.
In fear this might happen,
I took her to the OB-GYN and even pushed her into the OR.
But she turned up suddenly and told me she had him.
What was I supposed to do?
So why did you do that?
Why did you want her to get an abortion...
and make her resent you so much?
You found out he was your son,
but you continued to deny it just to save yourself.
How do you call yourself human?
Nothing changes even if I accept him as my son now!
Why should my family fall apart because of this son I never had?
You're unbelievably selfish...
and wicked.
Fine, let's say everything was in the past.
How dare you come and visit me in this building?
How would Woo Hyuk and his mother feel...
if they see us reconciled and happy?
Why should I care about that woman and Woo Hyuk?
Woo Hyuk is your son. Don't you feel bad for him?
Don't you feel bad for him...
for making him grow up without knowing his father?
If you were a human, shouldn't you feel sorry...
for your son, Woo Hyuk, and his mother,
who had to raise him all by herself in difficulty?
Jung Jun Hee and Woo Hyuk are the ones who should be sorry!
Jun Hee decided to give birth to a kid I didn't want,
and Woo Hyuk's sin was that he was born.
Have you always been this cruel?
Go apologize to Woo Hyuk and his mother right now, okay?
Apologize to them for your big sin and be forgiven.
I will not do that. I didn't do anything wrong.
I want a divorce.
What? "A divorce?"
You don't even know what you did wrong,
and I ran out of patience with you.
I can't live with someone like you.
I want a divorce.
You want to leave me because of Jung Woo Hyuk? Why?
Woo Hyuk was Yang Hee Chan's son?
Woo Hyuk was Yang Hee Chan's love child?
How can this be?
That was why his aide was seen with Woo Hyuk's mother.
I knew it. Fate is on my side.
I already found out Father was alive and had Gi Yun's weakness,
but on top of that, I also found out Yang Hee Chan...
had a love child.
Mother, we should play Gi Yun and Yang Hee Chan...
against each other.
What do you mean?
When the world finds out Yang Hee Chan had a love child,
his political career will end.
If Gi Yun finds out...
about Yang Hee Chan's love child,
he'll know that it can damage him too...
and try to get rid of Yang Hee Chan.
Once Yang Hee Chan finds out...
Jang Gi Yun will betray him and try to get rid of him,
he'll do what it takes to handle Gi Yun.
Yes.
But one thing concerns me.
Woo Hyuk, right?
Yes.
He could...
get hurt beyond repair.
I need to see Yang Hee Chan go down before I pass away.
That's the only way I can die in peace.
It breaks my heart to take advantage of the secret...
that Woo Hyuk is Hee Chan's child,
but I'm sure this is the best I can do for him.
Jaclyn,
I need you to be my agent and come between...
Yang Hee Chan and Gi Yun.
You tailed me...
and tried to find out who I really was,
but you fell into my trap instead.
I'll take advantage of you to get my revenge.
Mr. Yang, has something been bothering you recently?
You don't look so well.
Gi Yun, women are so hard to figure out.
Young Ran was my first love, so I married her out of love...
even though she was a divorcée.
We never fought through the years of our marriage,
so I believed we had a good life.
What's wrong?
Did you and her fight?
I thought she would stand by my side...
no matter what happened to me.
My heart breaks to think...
that she can leave me.
Why did you two have such a big fight?
It's not a big deal.
She'll get over it soon.
She must be in menopause.
These days, people say menopause is...
scarier than puberty.
They get angry over nothing and get fickle.
I'd protect everything I ever worked for.
My happy family, political prominence,
and exuberant affluence.
I'll get even more...
and enjoy even more.
Yes, of course.
If anything gets in the way of our success,
I'll get rid of it ruthlessly...
and have it all.
You said you thought of me like I was your own.
But recently, it seems like you're hiding something...
from me.
That can't be.
I'm not hiding anything.
You're just like my son.
I don't have any other son.
Jun Hee.
You said it was a shame that you never got to put on...
a wedding dress, right?
I was never married, so it was only natural.
I wouldn't say it was a shame.
But when I was younger, I'd feel jealous...
whenever I saw pictures of others in wedding dresses.
I always wondered why I couldn't marry someone...
like everyone else.
Whenever I saw young children walk around with their dads,
I'd feel sad and angry...
like a fool.
Whenever Woo Hyuk had to fill out questionnaires on our family...
at the beginning of every school year,
I felt bad that he had to leave out...
the name and occupation of his father.
I cried in misery too.
There were men who liked her,
but she never married them and only raised Woo Hyuk.
She only lived as a mom,
but not as a woman.
At times, it breaks my heart to think about that.
Jun Hee.
It must've been very hard...
to raise a child all alone.
You're so amazing.
You raised Woo Hyuk into such a wonderful person.
I always feel...
sorry and grateful for Woo Hyuk.
He never went astray and grew up into a good guy.
Jun Hee, he grew up into such a good man,
so you should see him marry and have children too.
Yes, I should.
Goodness, I'm sorry.
I need to get some rest.
Yes, sure. You should get some rest.
- Let me help you. - All right.
Uncle Soo Ho.
I feel so bad for Mom.
It broke my heart that she never lived happily...
as a woman.
Yang Hee Chan did that to her,
so I can't forgive him.
My father was the man who did this to her.
Then, he made himself a happy family...
and lived on as if everything was fine.
I can't condone this.
Father, my foot.
Just fathering you doesn't make him your father.
Yang Hee Chan was a man...
who brought shame to the word fatherhood.
Mom.
Take your medicine before you sleep.
Did Mr. Hwang leave?
Yes, he did.
Mom. My shoot ends early tomorrow. What should we do?
What do you want to do together?
It doesn't have to be anything special.
Getting a meal together and talking with you...
is more than enough for me.
That's boring, Mom.
Getting a meal and talking is what other mothers and sons do, too.
Woo Hyuk.
Don't go out of your way to do something special for me...
simply because I'm going to die soon.
I'm happy even if you don't do that.
Had you not given birth to me,
you would've gotten married...
and lived an ordinary yet happy life.
Because of me, you had it rough.
That could be why you got sick.
I feel bad about it.
Quit thinking like that.
Because of you,
I continued to live despite wanting to die.
And you made me smile at hard times.
Had I not had you,
I wouldn't have realized children were a gift...
from the deity.
Thanks for putting it like that, Mom.
Woo Hyuk.
What I'm about to say is out of worry.
Can't you stop supporting...
the civic groups signing against the casino bill?
Are you uncomfortable...
because I'm fighting against Yang Hee Chan, my father?
Nothing good will come out of opposing him.
Only you will get hurt if you fight against those...
who wield power.
Mom. Running away is losing.
I want to give that man,
Yang Hee Chan, a chance to find his conscience.
I want him to realize that...
what he's doing is bringing down the country.
That's the least goodwill I can do for my so-called father.
Woo Hyuk. Hee Jae and I will get revenge.
You should stay out of it.
(Eunhye Nursing Home)
I'm waiting for Eun Ha.
She promised to come.
So she'll come.
I'm trying all sorts to settle things with Gi Yun.
Do you think he'll accept me back?
Or...
he might try to kill me.
But I won't run away,
even from death.
After all, I have nowhere to return.
Jang Gi Yun...
is the only place I can return to.
Gi Yun was the first man who made me feel loved...
after I left behind all the high society men in the US.
He made me want to form a family for the first time.
Choi Eun Ha.
He's the worst evil being who killed Eun Ha...
and a jerk who threw me away. I know that.
And yet, I can't help but love him, which makes me feel pathetic.
Not being able to break free from my fate pains me.
I'm waiting for Eun Ha.
I'm going to end it now.
Whether Gi Yun chooses me...
or takes my life,
this is the only decision I can make right now.
I want Gi Yun to accept me, even if it's to survive.
Even if he has no feelings for me,
I want to give birth next to him.
I'll accept whichever decision Gi Yun makes.
I no longer want to live pathetically.
It is up to him whether I live or die.
In any case, I can't undo things...
or stop.
When Eun Ha comes,
let's meet her together.
I...
I might not be able to come here again.
Mom.
Thank you for waiting for me.
Thank you for not forgetting me and remembering me.
Mom.
I didn't want to call you Mom. But I will from now on.
Mom.
Because I might not be able to see you again.
Visit again.
Mom.
(Patient: Im Sun Ja)
You're visiting your mom often.
Why did you do it, Seung Pil?
Do what?
You didn't have to tell me you scammed me...
with the fake paintings.
But why did you tell me...
and break our friendship?
It was because you were blinded by love...
and chose the wrong path.
It was meaningless to be your friend.
It was only right to go separate ways.
Right. You and I can't get along, just like water and oil.
Let's see the end of each of our ways...
until we see what's at the end of it.
Na Seung Pil.
We may be taking separate paths,
but I'm grateful to you for two things.
And that's taking care of my mom until now...
and being my friend for a while.
I will never forget it.
Mother. What brings you to the agency?
I'm here to see Gi Yun.
- He's inside, right? - Yes.
Great.
- Get to work. - All right.
I'll prepare the tea.
Mom. Why are you here? I didn't get any calls from you.
Jaclyn is making me anxious.
I'll take care of her so that you won't feel anxious.
The more I think about Jaclyn, the more I get furious.
She lied that her baby was a son...
and made a fool out of me.
Now, she's blackmailing you about exposing your dad's state...
and trying to destroy you.
We can't keep her by our side.
She's an unpredictable and dangerous woman.
If she's dangerous, she must be gotten rid of.
Sorry? What do you mean by that?
I'll make it so that she never appears before us again.
How?
You don't need to know that part.
Good idea. Get rid of whatever gets in your way.
I agree that we should eliminate the bomb...
that could go off at any time.
And your dad.
When he becomes an obstacle in your life,
I'll take care of him.
Let Dad be.
He can't walk.
He's no threat to me.
Don't worry about him.
You're right.
Your dad is now a powerless person...
stuck in a small room.
So, Jaclyn will never step foot inside our house again, right?
Yes.
You won't be able to meet Jaclyn after tomorrow.
Who will you not meet after tomorrow?
Just someone.
It's a friend who keeps asking me for money.
They told me they were going off somewhere far away tomorrow.
Gosh. I'm so glad that...
such a troublesome friend is leaving.
Gi Yun.
What are you going to do to Jaclyn?
(Jung Capital)
I'm glad you're alone.
And I'm glad to be busy.
Stop wasting my time and go away.
Jung Woo Hyuk.
The hidden love child of Assemblyman Yang Hee Chan.
You can't lie to me and say...
it's a false rumor.
What do you want?
You hated Yang Hee Chan.
But did that hatred melt away when you found out he was your father,
wishing he'd treat you like a son?
I never had such an idea.
When the world finds out you're his love child,
he'll lose everything and go under.
You're staying silent because you don't want that either.
What do you want?
I want to leave...
my life in your hands.
What? Explain it so that I can understand.
I found out Gi Yun's weakness...
and used it to blackmail him.
I think he will...
either accept my terms...
or kill me.
Wait, you blackmailed him with your life,
knowing that you could die?
I'll call for help if something happens to me.
Come and save me.
Then I won't tell anyone that your father is Yang Hee Chan.
This is a location tracker that'll show where I am.
Why do you think I'll save you?
You may not like me,
but I don't think you'll leave me to die.
It doesn't have to be me. If someone is about to die,
you're the type of person who saves them. Isn't that so?
You're on the wrong page.
I'm not as good of a man as you think I am.
Woo Hyuk, remember.
It doesn't matter if you come to save me or not.
But I still left my life in your hands.
Why did she come to me?
Should I handle her tonight?
I'll do it myself. You don't have to mind it.
You'll do it?
I need to see her...
begging for her life in front of my eyes.
Jaclyn is in danger.
Perhaps my help blew up the matter.
But I also need to get my revenge against Jaclyn.
What's with me?
I can't believe Jaclyn is pregnant.
I'm quite concerned.
You must feel uneasy, too.
I don't think Gi Yun will let Jaclyn live.
Are you saying...
he'll hurt her?
He wouldn't go that far.
He even tried to kill me after ten years of marriage.
She even said she'd expose that you were alive,
so there was no way he'd let her live on.
No, you have to stop him.
I can't let him become a murderer again.
Hee Jae, please. You have to stop him.
Please stop his wicked act.
It's me, Jaclyn.
I've been too harsh on you lately.
You must've been disappointed.
(Chairman Jang Gi Yun)
It's been a while, so why don't we dine together?
I'll send you the address. I'll see you there.
Let's put an end...
to our cursed relationship, Jaclyn.
(The Elegant Empire)
Are you going to kill me?
You should've accepted my mercy when I offered it to you.
Go die in torment, Jaclyn.
Spare my life!
- Someone help me! - Go say hi to Ju Kyung for me.
Did something happen to my baby?
Jang Gi Yun, it's your turn to be tormented.
I will put an end to you with my two hands!
