Why did you do that? Why?
How can you do this?
Woo Hyuk, what's going on?
"What's going on?"
Do you plan to shamelessly deny that you killed my mom?
What are you talking about?
My mom said she forgave you.
She said she told me not to harbor hatred against you...
because you were still my father.
But...
you were getting ready to stab my mom in the back.
No, Woo Hyuk.
Do I...
Do I mean nothing to you?
Do you find my existence that burdensome?
I might not be able to call you my father,
but I was grateful that you seemed to think of me as your son.
I had no idea I was fooled by your crocodile tears...
and felt grateful because I thought you considered me your son.
How can I deny that you are my son?
You're my blood.
How can I deny it?
"Your blood?"
Yet you tried to kill me.
And how could you abandon your son?
You are worse than a beast.
Get it?
It wasn't me.
I didn't know anything about what happened to your mom.
You're unbelievably despicable.
I'm about to barf.
Would you still deny it was you?
Look.
Who's that?
He asked me for direction a few days ago, so I helped him.
So he was a stranger?
Was he the driver in your mom's hit-and-run accident?
Woo Hyuk, someone did this to frame me.
It's a conspiracy!
Someone must've found out you were my son and did this...
Will you please cut it out?
That's enough.
No, it really wasn't me.
Seo Hee Jae.
Why did you move into my house? What's the reason?
I'll find out why you came into my life.
Where did Gi Yun put his secret safe?
What are you doing here, Hee Jae?
I couldn't sleep, so I came to find a book to read.
You'll only find boring books here.
They're mostly on business management.
Yes, you're right.
Let me find a few books for you to enjoy.
You can come by often and have a read.
Thank you.
I look forward to the day your identity is exposed,
Hee Jae.
It's a misunderstanding, Woo Hyuk. It really is.
Let me keep this short.
You hired someone and killed my mom,
so you must turn yourself in.
And bring me the book on Jang Gi Yun's corruption.
What book on corruption?
I don't keep such a thing.
Jang Gi Yun and you...
have a very close relationship,
but you both keep a book on each other's corruption just in case.
That book.
That's what I need from you.
Woo Hyuk, it's frustrating to see your inability to trust me.
I really don't know that man in the picture,
and I have nothing to do with your mother's death.
I also don't keep a book of Gi Yun's corruption.
I need you to turn yourself in and hand over Gi Yun's corruption.
This is the last way...
you can beg for my late mom's forgiveness.
Woo Hyuk, please trust me!
If you don't do as I say,
I will also drain the life out of you in my own way.
Look forward to it.
(Assemblyman Yang Hee Chan)
I need to find a way out of this.
(Assemblyman Yang Hee Chan)
Mr. Yang.
If you do not do as I say, I don't know what I'll end up doing.
Do not miss your final chance to be forgiven.
- Hee Jae. - Yes?
- Are you going out to exercise? - Yes.
Please go ahead and eat breakfast.
Good morning, babe.
Yes, thanks to you.
Jaclyn, do you want to have a cup of tea with me?
What's wrong? You don't want to?
It's not that I don't want to.
It has been so long since I've seen you smile at me.
Here.
What's going on? Why is he suddenly doing this to me?
About Hee Jae...
Is it true...
that she isn't an heiress?
You never believed me before when I told you time and time again.
Do you finally believe me?
Is she an heiress or not?
She's not.
How did you know?
I hired a private detective.
Suzuki Yamato.
I found her fake father through that private detective.
Do you have Suzuki Yamato's number?
No, he went off the grid.
What about the private detective?
I know his number,
but he went off the grid too.
Send me the private detective's number.
You can try, but it says the number doesn't exist.
I don't care.
Send it to my phone.
Thanks.
Jang Gi Yun will completely change his attitude...
once he finds out Hee Jae isn't an heiress.
Come on in.
(Jung Capital)
I'm sorry for asking to meet so early.
I figured I wouldn't have a tail this early.
It's all right.
I can't seem to find Gi Yun's secret safe.
Why do you think he suddenly moved it from his study?
Who knows? But...
there must be a reason why he suddenly had to move it.
Something doesn't feel right.
Uncle Soo Ho, do you have to do something urgent...
Did you come to the office this early because of her?
I guess.
My mom passed away because of you. How dare you keep coming here?
You said you took advantage of her,
yet you shamelessly came back for my uncle's help?
You still only care about your revenge, don't you?
Woo Hyuk, Jun Hee told me to keep helping her.
Get a grip, Uncle Soo Ho!
Don't let her get the best of you anymore.
- It's not that, Woo Hyuk. She... - Uncle Soo Ho.
If you continue to help her, I'll stop seeing you too.
Leave.
I won't come here anymore.
(Jung Capital)
Woo Hyuk. Aren't you worried about Director Seo?
She can't fight against Jang Gi Yun alone.
Will you be fine if something happens to her?
Seo Hee Jae has nothing to do with me now.
Gi Yun's desire to kill Woo Hyuk will die down...
only when Woo Hyuk distances himself from me.
I always feared Woo Hyuk might fall in danger because of me.
I can put up with the fact that he hates me.
But just imagining him falling in danger...
kills me inside.
Woo Hyuk. Director Seo...
chose to be hated by you for your sake.
Just for your sake.
The sudden death of Woo Hyuk's mom...
must've left him heartbroken.
He must feel so bad and distressed...
that he can't sleep or eat properly these days.
I have no appetite.
Honey.
Woo Hyuk's mom passing away all of a sudden...
has put you in low spirits, right?
If it hurts you that much,
catch the driver who hit Woo Hyuk's mom and ran away quickly.
Catching that culprit...
will ease your mind, no?
Seriously, whoever that guy is,
I hope he gets into a deadly accident.
When you catch him,
I'll go slap that guy across the face.
Am I the police?
How can I catch the hit-and-run driver?
Honey?
What has gotten into him?
I need you to turn yourself in...
and hand over Gi Yun's corruption.
This is the last way...
you can beg for my late mom's forgiveness.
(Assemblyman Yang Hee Chan)
Why did you want to see me this early in the morning?
Gi Yun. Woo Hyuk stopped by.
Is that so?
What did he come to say to you?
He already knew I killed Jun Hee.
He knew you killed her?
I wonder how he found that out.
He had a photo.
A photo of me with that hit-and-run driver.
Good grief.
Things have gotten complicated.
Gi Yun. What do I do?
As long as Woo Hyuk is alive,
he'll only get in your way.
Get rid of him.
What is it?
Does it pain you because Woo Hyuk is your son?
Should I do it in your stead if you can't do it?
I don't know...
what I should do.
I had no idea you were such a weak person.
Do you want to spoil everything because of Woo Hyuk?
Do you want to waste everything you and I dreamed of...
and succeeded in because of him?
That's not all.
Even your family will go down.
What is Woo Hyuk to you? Why do you have lingering attachments to him?
I know, okay?
That I will get destroyed if I don't get rid of Woo Hyuk.
Yang Hee Chan. Why are you so lost because of that son of yours?
I've had enough.
You're going down alone.
Can't you think of a plan?
Woo Hyuk told me to turn myself in.
Turn yourself in?
He's one crazy jerk.
Were there any other demands besides...
turning yourself in?
"Other demands?"
And bring me the book on Jang Gi Yun's corruption.
No. That was the only demand.
All right. Got it.
I'll find a solution.
(Assemblyman Yang Hee Chan)
Director Seo met with Jung Woo Hyuk earlier this morning.
What I thought was right.
Seo Hee Jae and Jung Woo Hyuk were a team.
Use all possible means to bring...
the private detective Jaclyn mentioned to me.
Understood.
Seo Hee Jae.
She said she was Ju Kyung's friend.
Did she come into my life to get her revenge?
Is she trying to bring me down alongside Woo Hyuk?
Jaclyn. I need you to disappear from my life now.
Babe. Please save me.
Jaclyn. You're not worth saving.
No, please.
Why am I having nightmares every night?
Jun Hee.
You were such a beautiful person.
Beautiful like a flower.
You should've stayed with me a little longer.
What was the hurry?
Why did you have to leave me?
No.
You didn't leave me.
I don't know who said it.
But if you keep remembering that person,
that person isn't dead.
They're alive.
I will...
never forget you.
So, Jun Hee, you didn't die.
You're alive.
(Jung Capital)
Woo Hyuk. I made some new side dishes.
Thank you.
The side dishes from last time were delicious.
I'm happy that you enjoyed them.
Do me a favor, Ms. Woo.
Please stop bringing side dishes to us.
How come?
I don't want to burden you.
I'm only making a bit more while making some for my family.
Don't let it bother you.
I'm sorry. I want...
to cut ties with Mr. Yang.
What? Cut ties with him?
What do you mean by that?
I want us to live like strangers.
That includes you, Mr. Yang, and Bit Na.
Woo Hyuk. What's this out of the blue?
He's right. You acting like this...
hurts me.
Did I do something wrong to you?
No, you didn't.
Mr. Yang wants to hide the fact that I'm his son.
I also began to think we should remain strangers.
Woo Hyuk, but you aren't a stranger. How can you two remain strangers?
Don't say that.
Don't be like that, and come by for dinner soon.
I'm sorry. Please don't do that.
Woo Hyuk, don't say that and make her feel awkward.
Uncle Soo Ho.
Yang Hee Chan was the one who killed Mom, not Jang Gi Yun.
I just can't forgive him,
and it's also hard for me to see Ms. Woo.
Woo Hyuk, I'm not sure why you're doing this, but...
I'm sorry. I have to do something.
I signed the contract for your next film.
Do you want to see...
the synopsis and the script for your next mini-series?
Yes, sure.
Right.
How are things going at the headquarters...
for the anti-casino bill movement?
Things sped up, so the number of signatures suddenly jumped.
Starting next week,
we're also uniting with politicians who are against the bill.
Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Na.
It's all thanks to you.
You've given your full material and emotional support.
Can you speed it up?
I have to stop Jang Gi Yun and Yang Hee Chan's madness.
Let's see.
I need to talk to you, Hee Jae.
What is it?
Gi Yun began to be suspicious of your identity.
- What? - He asked me how I found out...
you weren't an heiress...
and took the number of the private detective.
You aren't an heiress.
It'll be a matter of time before he finds out.
Jaclyn, my father is Suzuki Yamato,
and I am his heiress.
You continue to hide your identity, even from me.
Jaclyn.
Why are you sharing Gi Yun's suspicions with me?
Once Gi Yun finds out you're a fake,
that'll be the end of you.
So you need to leave before he wrecks you.
That's not going to happen.
He'll begin to trust me as his suspicion toward you grows.
And the more he trusts me, the easier my revenge will be.
Jaclyn, I will not move out of this house.
I'll stay by Gi Yun's side.
Hee Jae.
Let me ask you for a favor.
If something happens to me,
you don't have to help.
But if something happens to me,
tell my mom in the nursing home not to wait for me anymore.
I've been very anxious lately, even having nightmares.
I drink bottled water and watch Mother cook...
because I'm afraid she'll put sleeping pills in my food.
And I lock the door before I go to sleep.
The memories of how Gi Yun tried to hurt me...
haunt me to this day.
If you're that anxious, why are you in this house?
You're afraid you may die here, so why do you continue to stay?
Everyone lays their life down to get their revenge.
How can I fight against Gi Yun without such determination?
I will pay him back...
for what he did to me.
I already died...
with the baby in my womb.
So, I don't care about dying, and I have no regrets in this life.
I was just concerned my mom would be left here alone.
If something happens to me,
will you tell my mom not to wait for me?
Thanks.
Father, I have a feeling Gi Yun is suspicious of me.
Do not let him find out you're actually Ju Kyung.
If you do, your life will be in danger.
Yes, I'm being careful.
I need to leave this room as soon as possible...
to give you a hand.
Please wait a little more.
I'm looking for a way to help you escape.
Hee Jae.
What are you and the chairman chatting so happily about?
About this and that.
You're so friendly, Hee Jae.
You became his good friend very quickly.
It's because she looks a lot like Ju Kyung.
She reminds me of Ju Kyung, so I'm fond of her.
I see. Is that so?
Jaclyn once made you do some digging on Seo Hee Jae, right?
Detective Jung is going to kill me...
if he sees me here.
"Detective Jung?"
Who's that?
Jung Woo Hyuk's uncle.
Jung Woo Hyuk's uncle was a detective?
A former detective.
He was a detective before, but he quit.
Tell me everything you know about Seo Hee Jae.
I really can't tell you this.
Tell him everything you know.
Well, Seo Hee Jae...
isn't an heiress.
Suzuki Yamato isn't real.
That's all I know about her!
Just as I thought.
You may leave.
Sung Gu.
Just as I thought, Seo Hee Jae wasn't real.
But how did she have that much money?
She gave me a huge amount to invest in that movie.
It looks like Jung Woo Hyuk is behind Director Seo.
The two of them toyed with me?
In that case, I'll make them pay.
Very slowly...
yet brutally.
(Assemblyman Yang Hee Chan)
Have you made a decision...
on the offer I made?
I'll do as you say and turn myself in.
I'll do it.
But give me some time.
I have no intention of giving you time.
If I turn myself in to the police,
it'll mean abandoning everything I have.
You need to give me time to settle my affairs.
Then bring me the book of Jang Gi Yun's corruption.
I don't keep such a book.
It looks like you'll deceive me until the end.
I'll start doing things my way.
Woo Hyuk.
You'll regret this.
(Jung Capital)
Come in.
Woo Hyuk.
Ms. Woo, you said you'd invite me home for dinner.
May I come over tonight?
Tonight? Yes, of course.
Thank you.
I'll visit your place tonight.
What do you like to eat, Woo Hyuk? I'll make what you like.
I can eat anything.
Excuse me now.
I should cook up some good food for Woo Hyuk.
Hold on. Should I invite Sung Il, too?
Here.
Did Woo Hyuk really say he was coming to our house?
That's right.
I can't believe he's suddenly coming over.
What could he want to say?
Oh, it must be them. Open the door.
- Okay. - Good.
I hope the food is to Woo Hyuk's taste.
Come this way.
- Good afternoon, Ms. Woo. - Hey.
Welcome, Woo Hyuk. Sit down.
Something smells amazing.
You've prepared a feast.
Since Woo Hyuk was coming over, I put in a bit more effort.
- What about Mr. Yang? - He'll be home soon.
Who is this special guest I have to come home early for?
Honey. It's Woo Hyuk.
He's the special guest I mentioned.
Good afternoon.
Right. Good afternoon.
- Let me get changed. - Gosh, just sit down.
She's right. I'm starving. Sit down.
- Aren't you hungry? - Sit.
Mr. Yang.
I'd like to date Bit Na. You'll give us your consent, right?
Woo Hyuk!
(The Elegant Empire)
I'm sorry, Bit Na.
I did something horrible to you.
That jerk Yang Hee Chan...
must go through everything my mom and I have suffered.
Are you going out, Mother?
That means Father and I are the only ones in the house.
Father, I'll help you escape.
- Mother? - Where are you off to, Jaclyn?
