(Episode 108)
(CEO Woo Ji Hwan)
This should be enough.
That has letters and numbers.
It should be enough for a comparison.
You can't beat me.
You will never be able to reveal anything.
Yes, is everything taken care of?
I have bad news.
What is it?
Mr. Kim. He vanished.
What? Is that true?
How did that happen? Hang up for now.
Is something wrong?
You needn't worry about that and think of giving up your title.
I'll overturn the shareholders' vote...
and bring you down.
What happened to whom?
Jin Ho.
Find out where Yang Man Soo is headed.
Yang Man Soo?
Yes. He's on the move now.
Yes. Call as soon as you know.
Bye.
(Petition)
Hello?
The trial is just days away.
Do you still not have a petition from the victim's family?
I told you it's unlikely.
We tried calling them,
but they just won't see us.
Still, perhaps you could find a way to...
Figure out what to do without it.
I said I'd pay you double if we win.
Very well. If that's what you say, I have no choice.
Let's just move on.
We must find him. Go to his house.
We can't lose him. Get everyone to find him.
Who is it she can't lose?
Yes, Jin Ho. Did you locate him?
Yes. He's headed to Namtan in Gyeonggi Province.
Namtan?
What's over there?
Which is why I'm about to set off to follow him.
You?
Yes, of course I should go.
You're a busy CEO who must catch up and meet people.
I can't let you leave work on your first day.
Okay, thanks. Take care.
Don't you worry and focus on your job.
Sir.
What is it?
Well, it's a report...
for the new CEO about our department.
He told each department to brief him starting today.
- You do it. - Me?
I don't think that's the right way to greet the new CEO who...
Just do as you're told!
Yes, sir.
I need Mr. Kim to turn himself in if I'm to be let go.
How dare he do this after all the money he took from me?
If I get him this time,
I'll make sure he never acts out again.
Ms. Ham.
Well? Did you find him?
No, I don't think anyone's home.
What kind of answer is that?
How did you lose him and cause such a mess?
- I'm sorry. - Enough of that. Find him.
Do whatever it takes to find him.
(CY Card)
(Kim Yoon Tae)
"Kim Yoon Tae."
What? Kim Yoon Tae?
Mr. Kim?
Yes. The house is empty...
and Mr. Yang rang the bell before leaving.
That means the person Ms. Ham is after is Mr. Kim.
Weren't they on the same side?
He'd taken the fall for what that woman had done.
He heard Ms. Ham is no longer CEO...
and that Tae Hyung didn't become CEO either.
He's wavering.
He is. Then we should get to him first.
Mr. Kim disappeared?
You said he'd turn himself in today.
You talked to him yesterday.
He showed no signs at the time.
Why run away now?
He thought of turning himself in...
and decided the money he'd taken wasn't enough, I guess.
I told you to watch him carefully!
He'll call.
He's on the wanted list, so he can't have gone far.
What if he changed his mind?
He almost became homeless when he lost everything.
Would he change his mind to avoid going to prison?
It's definitely about money.
Search every place he could be and find him.
If this doesn't go right, we might lose the company to Ji Hwan...
before we even put our plan in motion.
We can't let that happen. Never.
Yesterday, the police questioned Ham Sook Jin.
She'd have told Mr. Kim...
to turn himself in sometime today.
However,
the shareholder meeting vote...
made him realize there's no hope for Ham Sook Jin and Tae Hyung.
It could just end with him taking the fall,
so he changed his mind at the last moment?
He hasn't seen his family in a while,
so I think they're the first people he'd look up to.
The house was empty with mail piled up outside.
I think his wife went into hiding when he did.
Where are we to find him?
You said his elderly mother's in a hospital.
Yes. Hang on.
I looked up the location,
but I doubt he'll visit her there.
Ham Sook Jin must've thought of that already.
We should still check. How's your schedule for tomorrow?
What, you'll come too?
It's the weekend. Let's go together.
Okay. What about Ham Sook Jin's handwriting?
I gave the sample to the expert on the way.
She's way too confident which got me a bit worried,
but we should check to be sure.
Ji Hwan.
Hello, Ms. Sim.
I heard the news.
You run your grandfather's company.
Well, yes.
- You did great. - Not really.
You did. It's an amazing feat to be a CEO at your age.
Still, it's a huge weight on your shoulders, isn't it?
Yes. I'll pick my grandfather's brains and learn as I go.
I'm sure you'll do fine.
It seems like yesterday...
when your mom jumped for joy that you got into law school.
Yes.
Is your mother doing okay?
Jin Ho and I talked about inviting her over for a meal.
Yes, she's doing okay.
If you're headed home, I'll drop you off.
No, don't mind me. You go on home.
Ju Hong was here a while ago.
Sol had such a sweet idea.
Sol?
Sol, you have something to give me?
Yes.
So, what does the little lady...
have for me?
This.
What is this?
I bought a pair of sneakers for you.
Sneakers?
I love sneakers.
I'll buy you a pair next time.
Really? Thank you.
- Hey. - Hi, I'm home.
Sol bought me a pair of sneakers.
I see.
Ju Hong helped me.
I see.
Where did she get the money to buy me this?
I'd been saving up since kindergarten and I opened the piggy bank.
Ju Hong paid the remaining amount.
Sol had been saving up for so long, I didn't pay much.
Is that so? You dipped into your precious savings to get me this?
Why don't you try them on?
Shall I, then?
Well? Are they nice?
Yes. They're not like your ordinary shoes.
Oh, really?
The sole of my feet feels more relaxed.
How interesting.
Are you that pleased?
Of course I am.
My great-granddaughter bought them for me.
Why wouldn't I be pleased?
I feel healthy already.
Sir, you look nice.
I hope these make you healthier so you never go to hospital again.
I'll wear these and become healthy.
Okay.
I love them. They're nice.
- They're nice. - You look so cool.
Nice.
You can push me away, but I'll stay and survive.
I will not get pushed aside. Never.
Can we talk?
What about?
You laughed and talked,
then realized that other people live here too?
You suddenly remembered?
Grandpa's grateful for what you did.
I told him clearly he doesn't have to feel that way.
You don't have to thank me either.
We'll both do whatever suits us.
If seeing me at work makes you uncomfortable...
Whether you're in the CEO's office or my mom is,
I don't care.
However long it takes,
I will fight on until that office becomes mine.
You know our divorce will be finalized next week, right?
We must go to court, so check your schedule.
I don't want to drag it on a single day.
It must've been hard on you.
It would be nonsense to say you feel nothing.
But still,
I know you'll do better than anyone.
You're still young, and so admirable.
No.
It feels like everything...
came crumbling down at once.
You only just started to think so?
After all you did to harass my sister and Ji Hwan's family?
There used to be nothing but...
a wide, paved road before me.
And on that wide road,
I was always at the front, going straight ahead.
I didn't even have to...
swerve between other cars to go faster.
There was not one car ahead of me.
But then suddenly...
it all became a mess.
It became an utter mess.
Another wide road will appear again.
That's what roads are like.
You think it's cut off, but it leads somewhere.
You think it's a dead end,
but an alley appears.
You managed to get here. Stay strong a little longer.
Whatever your goal may be, you can make it.
Thank you.
This is how it feels to be comforted by someone.
Thank you...
for letting me feel it.
I'll always be here. I hope you remember that.
If things get rough, you can lean on me.
Cheers.
(Ms. Yoo)
She knows the chairman was discharged.
Why isn't she back yet?
I don't think Ms. An...
reacted to her like that on purpose.
Wait. My car's in the parking lot.
You can't drive like this, Tae Hyung.
No. I can get home.
Then sober up a bit first.
Stay with me for a while,
then call a driver to take you home, okay?
I don't want to.
(Nam Tae Hyung)
Should I feign ignorance and just walk in?
I can just stay put as if nothing happened.
Back then, what if he recognized me?
What if he heard my voice?
Then I'm done for.
No. If that were the case,
he'd have called me over and yelled at me.
He hasn't called.
Does he not know anything?
- Hi. - Ms. Yoo.
Are you headed to work, Dr. Baek?
Why haven't you come inside?
Oh... I was just about to go in.
I called you many times.
Did you? I didn't know.
If you're free, can we have a word?
A word? What about?
What do you mean?
Do you know Ji Hwan's mother from somewhere?
How could I know the seolleongtang lawyer's mom?
Did you meet her at the chairman's, then?
Yes.
Why are you asking me all that?
While caring for the chairman,
you almost never gave him an injection.
An injection?
What does she know that's making her ask me about that?
She never saw you give anyone an injection at home.
Why is Ji Hwan's mother afraid of you?
She's afraid of me?
When did we ever meet that she'd be afraid of me?
She told you to go away, that she doesn't like injections.
No?
Oh, she doesn't know what I almost did to the chairman.
You don't know what that's about?
Of course I don't.
How would I know that?
I said I don't know. Why are you giving me that look?
Dr. Baek, don't you know? The woman's demented.
Ms. Yoo.
Whatever memories she has are a twisted mess, and are you...
suspecting me of something over what she said?
Do you think only she's afraid of me?
I'm afraid of her too, okay?
It's offensive, so don't bring it up again.
This is unbelievable. It's like being hit by a bolt from the blue.
Are you up?
Do you have a headache?
What... Why am I here?
You must've really had a lot to drink last night.
Do you not remember anything?
You were drunk and you insisted on driving.
I brought you up so you could sober up.
And I fell asleep?
Why didn't you wake me? Or kick me out?
Kick you out?
You clung to me and wouldn't let go, asking me to stay.
How could I do that?
When you wake up tomorrow,
we'll have crossed the point we cannot return from.
I can't wait to see the look on your face.
So what? So...
You wouldn't let me go, so I stayed by your side.
All night long.
I even got a confession.
From you.
Hello?
It's Kim Yoon Tae.
Where on earth are you...
You agreed to turn yourself in yesterday. Where are you?
There's a timing for everything.
Delaying things now won't be good for anyone.
You said you'd give me a promotion once I got out of prison.
I did. And I swear, the CEO position will be yours.
How?
Your son isn't the new CEO.
How can I trust you and do years in prison?
What else should you trust? Trust in money.
You can't do this now, not after taking a fortune from me.
- Give me that much more. - Mr. Kim!
If you can't guarantee me a future, I'll need more cash instead.
(Cheonhyang Senior Care Center)
Hello, ma'am.
I'm Mr. Kim Yoon Tae's subordinate.
I'd like to ask you something.
It won't take long.
Do you know where Mr. Kim is?
Wait, we...
I think she's hard of hearing.
(Eldest daughter)
Hey.
(Eldest daughter)
Mother, it's Yoon Tae.
Mother, do you hear me?
It's Kim Yoon Tae.
Do you have the number?
Yes. Hang on.
Here, I got it.
It's a Chinese restaurant in Suwun-dong.
A Chinese restaurant?
Does Mr. Kim's older sister run a restaurant?
Yes, it looks like it. Hang on.
What?
- You should step on it. - Why?
I looked up Ms. Ham's call history, just in case.
This restaurant's number is at the top of the list.
Come to Suwun-dong now, Mr. Yang.
Tell Mr. Oh to send his men over, right now.
It's not too late, Mr. Kim.
Don't make another foolish call.
Mr. Kim.
You...
(The Secret House)
Do you have other business here?
Did he hide Mr. Kim knowing I was coming to get him?
No, that's not what I mean.
Of course it's not.
You were so very sincere last night.
Why don't I remember a thing?
You don't seem to know,
but you stepped onto the path to destruction long ago.
Don't touch a hair. We must send him straight to the police.
The police? Mr. Kim?
Woo Ji Hwan speaking.
Is someone called Mr. Kim important?
