Don't go, Mommy.
No, Mommy.
- Don't go, Mommy! - Soo A.
Please don't go, Mommy!
I'll be back soon.
Don't go, Mommy!
Mommy...
- Mommy! - Soo A. Mommy will be back soon.
I hate you, Daddy.
Mommy...
Jang Soo A. Go back to your room.
Mommy!
Let's go, Soo A. Stop crying.
- Mommy... - Come now.
Gi Yun.
You taught Hee Jae a good lesson, didn't you?
I feel all better after seeing Hee Jae...
get dragged away by the police.
Seo Hee Jae.
She reaped what she sowed.
Soo A. Your mommy will come back.
Mommy...
I'm scared, Ms. Jaclyn.
What's scaring you?
I'm scared Mommy might not return.
I'm also scared Mommy will leave me again.
Don't worry, Soo A. That won't happen.
Just like you,
I used to cry because I missed my mommy.
You too?
That's right.
I cried even as an adult because I wanted to see her.
Soo A. Your mommy will come back.
But the police took her.
Then I won't be able to see her for a while again.
Soo A.
Mommy.
- Mommy! - Soo A.
Mommy.
- Soo A. - Mommy.
It was like that back then.
I couldn't see her for a long time.
Soo A, you missed your mommy and waited for her to come,
then she came back, right?
It's just like that. All mommies in this world...
will come back if their child waits.
So let's wait for her to come without crying, okay?
- Mommy... - Oh, my.
Come quickly, Hee Jae. Soo A is waiting for you.
Don't make her wait too long,
and come quickly.
So, you admit to living your life by creating a non-existing alias...
named Seo Hee Jae?
Yes, I admit it.
I also forged my passport and the My Number Card in Japan.
If you aren't Seo Hee Jae,
then who are you?
Who are you?
I am Shin Ju Kyung.
"Shin Ju Kyung?"
What's your resident registration number?
It's 900607-2711802.
(Background Check Database)
(Shin Ju Kyung, deceased)
Shin Ju Kyung is a deceased person.
Ms. Shin.
Ye Kyung!
Shin Ju Kyung...
did not die.
Then, why did you declare her death and live as Seo Hee Jae?
My husband tried to kill me.
Your husband?
Chairman Jang Gi Yun of WJ Entertainment?
Yes, Jang Gi Yun tried to kill me.
That makes no sense.
You won't believe me.
I will gladly accept punishment for forging official documents...
to live as Seo Hee Jae.
However, Jang Gi Yun tried to kill me,
and that was a fact.
That was why I had no choice...
but to live under another identity.
You cannot take her into custody for an investigation.
Ms. Seo Hee Jae, I mean, Ms. Shin Ju Kyung...
may run away or destroy the evidence,
so we have no choice but to keep her under custody.
There's suspicion of Chairman Jang's involvement...
in Mr. Yang's attempted murder,
and the video he turned in as evidence is...
still undergoing verification.
If Ms. Seo Hee Jae was kept under custody,
it would weaken her right to defend herself.
This is why you have no choice but to release her.
We can file for a review of her confinement,
and the result will be evident.
We shouldn't waste our public resources like that.
Sir.
Seo Hee Jae's counsel is too powerful.
It'll be hard to keep her under custody.
Thank you...
for helping with my release.
I had to do it.
Jang Gi Yun had reported you to the police as Shin Ju Kyung.
It was an emergency.
You should be careful.
This must mean Gi Yun wants to put an end to this for good.
I heard he had you arrested while Soo A was watching.
That cruel jerk.
That man says he does everything for Soo A,
but he doesn't care how shocking this is for her.
He's so wicked that he doesn't care...
about what happens to Soo A if it'll benefit him.
I won't forgive him.
And I will put an end to this...
just as he wants,
if anything, for Soo A's sake.
I heard Jung Woo Hyuk gave you solid defense counsel...
and helped you get released from custody.
But I have bad news.
You're not welcome here.
I don't need you to welcome me.
I packed up your stuff.
Get out of here.
The world has now found out...
that I was Shin Ju Kyung, not Seo Hee Jae.
Why would I get scared and listen to what you said?
I'm Shin Ju Kyung, and I am Soo A's mom.
There's no reason to hide this anymore,
so I am not leaving.
Get out before Soo A wakes up.
I'm staying by her side...
as her mother.
You better leave while I'm still nice.
Gi Yun, you can't do anything to threaten me anymore.
It doesn't matter if you kick me out of here.
I'll come back.
Also, you'll want to fire me from your business,
but you can't kick me out without a proper reason.
"A proper reason?"
You're a fake.
You lived under a fake identity. I have all the reasons to fire you.
You can only fire me after the trial ends.
You can't fire me until then.
Hee Jae, I will make sure you're ostracized.
Marketing Manager, the exposal you prepared on Seo Hee Jae.
Release it tomorrow.
My goodness!
What? What's wrong?
Seo Hee Jae was Shin Ju Kyung?
What? What are you talking about?
Well.
"The ex-wife of Chairman Jang Gi Yun of WJ Entertainment,"
"Shin Ju Kyung, had been alive."
"Shin Ju Kyung faked her death, deceived everyone,"
"and began to live her life under another identity as Seo Hee Jae."
"She approached her ex-husband, Jang Gi Yun,"
"to go after his money."
"Seo Hee Jae committed atrocities such as stealing company stocks..."
"from Chairman Jang Gi Yun, breaking up his family,"
"and much more."
"Chairman Jang later found out Seo Hee Jae was his dead ex-wife."
"He reported Seo Hee Jae for fraud and other charges."
First, he made Director Seo look like the worst woman,
then he threw in the fact that she was actually Shin Ju Kyung,
only to make her look worse.
He played the media to begin this witch hunt.
It must've been Gi Yun.
Wait, so Seo Hee Jae is actually Shin Ju Kyung? Really?
Yes.
Director Seo is Ju Kyung.
I can't believe Director Seo is Ju Kyung.
I had no idea. I was completely fooled.
Ju Kyung was alive?
Anyway, why did she return as Seo Hee Jae?
Gi Yun...
cannot ostracize her like this.
Chang Sung, you're back.
Your mind should've cleared up...
during the live streaming.
Sung Il.
How can Gi Yun take things this far against Ju Kyung?
Is there any way to stop him?
If I knew, I wouldn't be here like this.
Director Seo is in trouble.
How can she hold her head up high as everyone condemns her?
Here.
Soo A, why do you look at me like that?
Because you're pretty.
I was so happy you returned while I was sleeping.
Your hair looks soft and smooth.
Really?
My hair must be so smooth because I can comb it...
from the top to the bottom at once.
You're the prettiest one in this world.
I think you're the prettiest one in this world.
Let's get you to school.
- Jaclyn, please take her to school. - Okay.
I need to talk to you.
Soo A, I'll pick you up after school.
Daddy, I am sorry...
for saying I hate you yesterday.
You helped Mommy come home, right?
Thank you.
You'll be late. Go to school.
Goodbye.
Let's go, Soo A.
I reported you to the police, saying you were the dead Shin Ju Kyung,
and you've been put back under a restraining order.
You need to leave this house.
Does that mean you won't let me see Soo A?
That's right. Only then will you suffer more.
I'm Soo A's mom. How can you not let me see her?
Shin Ju Kyung. You're a criminal.
You even served time for embezzlement.
I will protect my daughter from the criminal Shin Ju Kyung.
Yes. That's only reasonable.
We can't leave Soo A to an atrocious criminal like you.
Jang Gi Yun. If you don't let me see Soo A,
I will kill you.
Be my guest.
Good luck.
We're here, Soo A.
I'm off to school.
Okay. Have fun.
That young child has done nothing wrong.
Even Soo A will become pitiful because of Gi Yun.
Soo A!
I heard your mom was alive.
Yes, I live with Mommy now.
My mom told me...
your mom was a wicked, bad person.
No. My mommy's not a bad person!
But it was in the news.
That your mom was really wicked.
She might even go to jail.
That's not true. My mommy's kind!
I'm serious!
Goodness gracious.
I really can't believe everything that's going on.
To think that even Ju Kyung was alive...
after the late Chairman Jang.
I think Woo Hyuk knew about it.
That Director Seo was Ju Kyung.
Good grief. Woo Hyuk sure is amazing.
He kept all those secrets to himself...
and stayed by Hee Jae's side.
Gosh, a man who protects his beloved until the end.
Woo Hyuk knows how to do that.
What's wrong, Bit Na?
Are you still not over Woo Hyuk?
No.
I'm heartbroken because the person...
who died back then wasn't Ju Kyung...
but Ye Kyung.
Not knowing she had passed away,
I waited for her to return from the US.
Good grief.
I feel bad for Ye Kyung.
And I feel terrible for Ju Kyung.
After losing her sister in an accident,
she couldn't tell Soo A the truth and lived as someone else until now.
Nobody can imagine how much pain she must've been in.
Let's have a drink to celebrate the fact that Ju Kyung is alive.
- But without Ju Kyung? - That's no biggie.
We can hold another drinking party when she stops by.
We can celebrate without her today.
I brought a delicious convenience store beer snack.
Here. Try some.
It looks good.
I like it. It goes well with beer.
It's hard to buy it since it's good value for money.
Why are you pushing the plate towards me?
Leave it here for everyone to eat.
What a slowpoke.
He's a slowpoke without any sense of wit.
Gosh, this is good.
Would you like one, Chang Sung?
Here. Try it.
Soo A. You're a big girl now.
You should start sleeping by yourself.
Soo A recovered from her selective mutism not too long ago.
I'll take care of her as we share the bed.
To foster independence, she should sleep by herself.
Give us some privacy. I need to talk to Soo A.
I'll also listen to what you have to say.
I beg you.
Help me out so that I don't raise my voice before Soo A.
Fine.
Soo A. You're not allowed to sleep with your mommy like a baby, okay?
Okay.
Good. Mommy can stay with you for a long time...
if you listen to my words.
I'll listen to you, Daddy.
So please let Mommy stay by my side.
Daddy. Is Mommy going to jail?
No, right?
Everything my friends said was wrong, right?
Mommy's not a bad person, is she?
Only I can help Mommy not go to jail.
Really?
Then please help Mommy, Daddy.
Don't let her go anywhere.
I don't want to be apart from Mommy.
Daddy. You don't hate Mommy, do you?
You're on Mommy's side, right?
Of course. I'm on Mommy's side.
So you're trying to put more distance...
between me and Soo A, even at home.
Seo Hee Jae. Use Father's old room.
If you disobey me and sleep with Soo A,
it'll become hard on Soo A.
Don't make Soo A suffer because of you.
Soo A. Can you really sleep alone?
Yes, Mommy.
Daddy told me we could live together if I obeyed him.
I see.
Mommy. Daddy is on your side.
Daddy will protect you.
Soo A...
I love you, Mommy.
I love you, too.
Father.
Hee Jae.
It's been really tough recently, right?
After all, Gi Yun turned you into the world's most evil woman.
Father.
I don't care what people say about me.
What's causing me pain is Soo A.
Because of her, I can't do anything. Not even get my revenge.
Letting Gi Yun push me around...
stresses me out a lot.
So it's true when they say no children cause no problems.
Everyone is suffering because of their child.
Just seeing Gi Yun is enough to make me puke.
I want to leave that house together with Soo A.
I want to run away and live with Soo A...
in a place where Gi Yun can't find us.
Hee Jae. I know you're in a tight spot.
- Father. - Hee Jae.
My mind is clear right now.
Take me to see Gi Yun...
while my mind has cleared up.
I can't allow that, Father.
We don't know what Gi Yun might do to you.
It's too dangerous.
She's right, Chang Sung. The risk is too high.
No. I need to talk to Gi Yun.
There's something I must tell him as a father.
Father...
Do this for me.
Please take me to where Gi Yun is.
Babe. Why is Father suddenly coming home?
Who knows?
But Dad will probably take Hee Jae's side and spout gibberish again.
If he dares do that, I will punish him.
It seemed like you'd never return until you let out your last breath.
Did you suddenly miss...
your wife and son at home?
I'm busy. Tell me right now if you have anything to say.
Take me to the room where I used to stay.
Tell me what it is that you have to say.
Gi Yun.
I am sorry.
I beat you as I brought you up...
and always urged you to be at the top of your class...
because I thought that was your only way to success.
I am sorry for bringing you up...
only by emphasizing that.
I didn't know any better.
I should have taught you...
how to live a happy life and love others.
But I only taught you to always come out at the top.
I'm sorry.
I mean it.
I am very sorry...
if I hurt you in any way.
Please forgive your foolish father.
Why are you suddenly doing this?
It's all my fault.
It may be belated, but I want to right the wrongs.
Gi Yun, I already knew...
you were not my son...
by blood.
But I never considered you...
anything less than a son.
You are...
my son.
That is why I just can't give up on you.
You should have...
apologized to him long ago.
If you had done that long ago,
Gi Yun and I wouldn't have been this harsh on you.
I was grateful and happy...
that you loved me and took me in.
But as soon as Gi Yun became scared of you...
and grew further away from you,
I had to keep him safe.
I felt grateful and sorry for you,
but I had to live for Gi Yun.
I know.
I accepted everything because I knew how you felt.
It's too late.
It's too late to go back.
Gi Yun, it's time to stop.
You need to stop the wicked things you are about to do now...
and look back on what you have done to this day.
How can I stop everything now?
Apologize to Hee Jae for everything you have done...
and make a happy family...
with Hee Jae and Soo A once again.
"Apologize to Hee Jae?"
So, you're telling me...
to beg her for forgiveness...
and go to prison to pay for what I did.
Once I go to prison, will you make Seo Hee Jae the chairwoman...
like you did back then?
No, that's not what I mean.
Both you and WJ Entertainment can't go down like this.
Of course not!
How can you ruin everything like this if you know that?
Everything would've been fine...
if you didn't make Ju Kyung the chairwoman.
Dad, I lived my entire life on the edge...
trying to earn your approval,
so you should've given me this business.
You gave...
what was yours to your daughter-in-law, not me.
Why are you telling me to stop now?
How am I to stop this now?
Gi Yun.
I'm sorry.
Please!
Please change your mind!
Don't think of me...
as your son after this moment.
Let us...
give up on each other and live on, as if we're strangers.
Gi Yun!
Honey.
Do something about him!
Please!
It's too late.
As always,
Gi Yun is my priority,
and I will take his side.
Honey!
- Gi Yun... - Are you all right, Father?
I was too ashamed to face you.
I am sorry.
Don't say that.
I'd like to spend some time alone.
Okay.
How can I call myself a parent and a father...
if I cannot change my son's mind?
I do not deserve to be a father.
The only thing I can do for him is...
for me...
to disappear.
So, you're saying Jang Gi Yun will not budge...
although Father begged him for forgiveness?
He's impossible.
I'll leave with Father.
Father, let us go.
Are you asleep?
Father!
Father! My goodness, Father!
No. Father! Wake up!
Father!
- What's that sound? - Father!
Father!
Father.
Dad.
Honey!
Father...
Father.
Father!
(The Elegant Empire)
How dare you come without permission and take my money?
How dare you go against my command?
In the end, you'll only get used by Gi Yun...
and get tragically abandoned.
Your dad came to apologize,
knowing that he could die.
It's too late to go back.
I'm sorry, Dad.
I don't care even if I end up in a fiery pit.
I will not stop.
