(Episode 74)
Are you her son?
Yes, doctor.
Why isn't she getting surgery?
She will not survive.
"She will not survive?"
What do you mean?
Jun Hee.
Please be ready to face the worst.
No.
Doctor,
please help her.
Please save my mom.
No, Mom.
You can't pass away like this.
You wanted to go on a family trip.
Mom.
You can't leave like this.
I can't live on if you go like this.
He's right, Jun Hee. This is wrong.
Jun Hee.
You can't pass away so suddenly.
Woo Hyuk.
Mom. I'm right here.
Hee Jae...
Call over Hee Jae for me.
"Hee Jae?"
I have something to tell her.
All right, Jun Hee.
Why can't I get in touch with him?
Everyone's safe, right?
Yes, Detective Jung?
What?
Got it. I'm on my way.
Where are you going? It's late.
Something urgent came up.
What urgent thing?
I'll talk to you when I come back.
Is she on her way to see Woo Hyuk?
If you are still torn between Woo Hyuk and me,
I can't let it go on.
Don't let me down, Hee Jae.
My dear son.
You must have suffered so much because of this foolish mother.
I'm sorry for bringing you up without a father...
and stopping you from becoming an actor,
although it was your dream.
I did my best to raise you,
but I always felt sorry...
for everything to you.
Don't say that, Mom.
You lived your life sacrificing yourself for me,
yet I never got a chance to look after you.
I should be sorry that I didn't know how sick you were...
until it was too late.
Yang Hee Chan.
Your father.
You may never get to call him...
your father,
but forgive him.
He apologized to me,
and that was more than enough.
Mom.
After all,
he is still your father.
Please do not harbor hatred against him.
I won't, Mom.
I promise.
I'm so glad...
I can leave this world...
without resenting...
someone I hated and resented all my life.
And Hee Jae.
I have something to tell her.
She'll be here soon, Mom.
Ms. Jung.
Hee Jae.
Yes.
Hee Jae, I have a favor to ask of you.
Can you come a little closer?
Please don't get your revenge...
against Hee Chan, Woo Hyuk's father.
I...
already forgave him.
I hope...
you find your happiness with your daughter, Soo A.
Please don't pass away...
until you see me happy.
I'm sorry...
for not letting you and Woo Hyuk stay in love.
I stopped you two...
from staying together.
I'm sorry for breaking your heart.
Woo Hyuk.
Please give your love to Hee Jae.
I will.
Hee Jae.
Please give your love to Woo Hyuk.
Yes, Ms. Jung.
Please don't...
let go of each other...
after this moment.
Promise me.
I promise, Mom.
I won't let him go, Ms. Jung.
Don't cry. I...
No.
Mom.
- Ms. Jung... - Mom!
- No. - Ms. Jung.
- No... - Jun Hee.
Jun Hee...
- Mom. - Jun Hee.
Mom!
- No. - Mom!
No, Mom! Don't go.
No, don't go!
Don't go, Mom!
No, Mom!
No...
No!
Jun Hee...
- No, Mom. Don't go! - I had no other choice.
There was nothing else I could do to protect my wife and daughter.
I couldn't lose everything I had worked for.
I felt bad for Jun Hee and Woo Hyuk,
but I really had no other choice.
Hey, Gi Yun.
I need to see you now.
Take a seat.
I heard Jung Woo Hyuk's mother died, not him.
The root of all troubles,
Jung Woo Hyuk, should have died.
Why?
Am I wrong?
Jung Woo Hyuk will ruin your political career.
As long as he's alive,
he can push both you and me into danger.
You may have failed this time, but find the right time...
to get rid of him for good.
Don't put it off for too long.
You need to get rid of him yourself as soon as possible.
Gi Yun.
He just lost his mother.
How can you ask me to end his life myself?
How can I do that?
If you let him live,
you and I will die.
By any chance, do you want to let him live...
because he's your son?
You abandoned him.
The moment he was born,
you never knew he existed.
So don't pretend like you're his father now.
I have thought of you...
as my own father to this day,
so I'll be a son for you.
Remember.
You must abandon Woo Hyuk...
for us to him.
Mom.
Woo Hyuk.
She must be in a better place now.
I feel so bad for her.
All she knew in life was pain.
I feel so bad for her.
Hello, Mr. Hwang.
What? Woo Hyuk's mother passed away?
What do you mean Woo Hyuk's mother suddenly passed?
What will Woo Hyuk do?
I heard she had terminal cancer,
but I didn't expect her to pass away this soon.
What's going on, Seung Pil?
Let's go.
What's with all this noise? What on earth is going on?
Woo Hyuk's mother passed away.
What?
Look how delicious this looks.
I'm sick of this.
I'm sick and tired of it.
I had no idea. Please believe me.
Hey, Sung Il. It's rare for you to call this late.
Sorry?
What do you mean? This is out of the blue.
Woo Hyuk's mother said she was going on a trip.
But to die out all of a sudden?
My gosh. I can't believe it.
How did this happen so suddenly?
Mom. Woo Hyuk's mother passed away.
I just got a text about her death. I'm in disbelief.
Same here. My heart is...
Wait. When I saw her during the day,
she was excited about her first family trip.
So how could this happen?
I feel so bad for her.
And I feel so bad for Woo Hyuk, too.
Bit Na. Get ready to go to her funeral.
Okay.
Honey.
Listen. Woo Hyuk's mom passed away.
You knew about it?
I feel terrible for her.
She was over the moon about the family trip.
Get changed quickly, honey. We should go to her funeral.
Me?
I'm too ashamed to go.
You should go alone.
Honey. Nevertheless, you must go.
Woo Hyuk will be suffering alone.
You should comfort him.
And you should see...
Woo Hyuk's mom off.
It will make you regret less.
(Our deepest condolences.)
I'll come back after getting changed.
Woo Hyuk. How did this happen?
Hey.
By any chance, was Hee Jae at the hospital?
Yes.
Did you settle that urgent thing that had come up?
Yes.
You said you would tell me about it once you returned.
What was it?
It was about casting our actors.
Is that so?
Where are you off to this time?
Woo Hyuk's mother passed away.
Really?
I'm going to her funeral.
It's better for you not to go there.
Excuse me?
Despite being with me,
how much longer will you care about Woo Hyuk?
Don't go.
My pride won't let you...
go to Woo Hyuk.
I'm not going to Woo Hyuk right now.
I'm leaving to pay my respects to the deceased.
Woo Hyuk used to be an actor I managed.
I can't disregard his mother's death.
I can't tolerate...
you going to Woo Hyuk for whatever reason...
it may be.
How can you be this nasty, Gi Yun?
Aren't you the reason Woo Hyuk's mother passed away?
And yet, you're stopping me from going to her funeral?
The one who should've died is you, Jang Gi Yun.
If you love and respect me,
don't go to her funeral.
I'm sorry. I'll be back.
Hee Jae.
Gi Yun is telling you not to go.
Do you think he's joking or something?
I'm sorry.
That little...
Does Hee Jae have any respect for you?
How can she act as she wants?
Gi Yun. Are you going to let her look down on you like this?
By the way,
why did Woo Hyuk's mother die all of a sudden?
She had terminal cancer.
Her time was probably up.
She must be so upset to leave behind...
that large sum of wealth.
Teddy Girl, Mr. Woo Hyuk's mommy passed away.
He must be very sad.
I was really sad when my mommy passed away.
Mr. Woo Hyuk must be crying a lot in pain, right?
I want to go and comfort him.
Where are you going?
To Woo Hyuk's mother's wake.
I should share my condolences.
There's no need to go there.
I'll be back.
Good grief.
How about I pay that man a visit...
to tame him?
How does it feel to starve for a few days?
You woman!
I'm hungry. Give me food.
I thought you'd reflect if you didn't have food for days.
But I was wrong.
How long will you have to starve to become docile?
Honey!
Give me food. I beg you.
That's it.
I love it when you're being polite.
I'm starving.
I had no plans to act childish over your meals.
But because you went on about how Gi Yun wasn't your son and all,
I had no choice...
but to make you starve for you to come to your senses.
Here you go.
Enjoy your meal.
Oh, that's too bad.
You can't reach the table.
I should help you, shouldn't I?
Come now.
Here.
My goodness. I can't believe I made such a mistake!
Are you trying to starve me to death?
How can you make me this miserable?
You will get punished for this.
Before I get punished,
you'll starve to death first if I don't give you food.
So don't you dare think about yelling at me like you used to!
Hye Rim!
You're a monster!
The deity will punish you!
What's the use of living like this?
There's no meaning in living if my life is more miserable...
than the dead.
I will survive.
I'll survive...
and make sure...
you pay for everything you're doing to me.
- Woo Hyuk. - You're here.
Woo Hyuk, I couldn't believe she suddenly passed away.
I'm sorry, Woo Hyuk.
How can she be this harsh on you?
Why couldn't she live just a little longer?
Thank you for coming.
I'm sorry.
- Sung Gu. - Yes, Chairman Jang.
Woo Hyuk must be devastated...
because his mother passed away.
I'm going to pull him away from her wake.
That would make him...
more devastated and distressed.
If Woo Hyuk hits me at his own mother's wake,
his image will be tainted,
and the police will take him away so he can't stay for the funeral.
Sung Gu.
Call the police right away once he lays a hand on me.
Sorry?
Yes.
I heard Woo Hyuk's mother passed away in a car accident.
Do you think she passed away...
because of me?
I had been going between Gi Yun and Yang Hee Chan,
so were they the ones who did the worst to her?
Is Gi Yun behind this?
I knew it. It was him.
(Messages)
(Manager Min Sik: My condolences. Jay Company Director: I'm sorry.)
(Kwon Min Jae: I just heard. I'm so sorry for your loss.)
(Seo Hee Jae)
I was worried about you, Woo Hyuk.
It looks like Gi Yun is up to something.
Please be careful.
Wait.
Did Gi Yun kill my mom?
(Condolences)
It must be tough.
I just saw your text message.
Was it Jang Gi Yun?
I think so.
Jang Gi Yun, that crazy murderer.
I can't believe I'm seeing everyone here.
What a surprise.
Well, Woo Hyuk was once an actor at WJ.
I can't believe I'm seeing you here.
This is a much bigger surprise.
Jung Woo Hyuk.
Did it come to your mind...
that she passed before her time because of you?
A hit-and-run accident?
She didn't even die in peace.
Jang Gi Yun, how do you call yourself human?
You cursed jerk.
- Woo Hyuk. - Let go of me!
- Don't do this, Woo Hyuk. - Let go.
Is this the police?
- Hey, Woo Hyuk! - You crazy jerk!
That's enough, Woo Hyuk.
Let go of me. Let go!
- Woo Hyuk! - Let go of me!
Let go!
That's enough!
- Stop it, Woo Hyuk! - Let go of me!
- Please. - Stop it, Woo Hyuk.
Woo Hyuk.
Please let go of me.
(The Elegant Empire)
I won't let Jang Gi Yun live.
I will get the revenge for my mom's untimely death,
no matter what.
Gi Yun and Hee Jae's relationship began to fall apart.
I need to make use of this chance.
Why are you here, Jaclyn?
I'm going to live here now.
I'm glad you moved in here.
Jang Gi Yun and Mother will suffer because of your presence.
