(Episode 109)
(Kukmin Chinese Restaurant)
- Ms. Ham. - Where are the boys?
They're by the back door.
Don't go anywhere and stand guard right here.
Okay.
(Kukmin Chinese Restaurant)
Mr. Kim.
- You... - Hello.
Ms. Ham Sook Jin.
What are you doing here?
I'd like to ask what you're doing here.
Answer my question.
What are you up to?
Oh, this?
I'm here for some jajangmyeon.
Jajangmyeon? You little...
If you came all this way,
then this must be a real famous place after all.
Are you trying to toy with me?
I said I'm here for some noodles.
Do you have other business here?
This punk is definitely here to find Mr. Kim.
Did he hide him?
Here's your jajangmyeon.
Great, thanks. I'll enjoy it.
You can sit wherever you like.
Ma'am?
No, it's fine.
Enjoy yourself.
(Kukmin Chinese Restaurant)
Keep the boys here until they find Mr. Kim.
Is Mr. Kim not inside?
Ji Hwan is in that restaurant.
Tail him when he leaves and see where he goes.
If he got Mr. Kim, he would definitely go to see him.
Okay, I understand.
Woo Ji Hwan.
Let's wait and see what exactly you're up to.
He ate at the restaurant and then just left?
Where to?
He dropped by the mall and then went to his office.
I see.
Do you have men watching Mr. Kim's mom?
Have them keep their eyes peeled and call me as soon as you see him.
That means Ji Hwan made a wasted trip too.
Where on earth is Mr. Kim hiding?
(CEO Woo Ji Hwan)
You will go to prison for something you didn't do.
Must you let your sick mother see that?
What if her health deteriorates? What then?
And your only daughter.
Do you think money will heal the disappointment she'll feel?
But without the money, her tuition...
The money Ham Sook Jin gave you.
Do you really think it's clean?
In the end, you'll get sent to prison as an accomplice.
(CEO Woo Ji Hwan)
Hi, Annie.
Oh. I'm so sorry.
I meant to call after the shareholder meeting.
It's fine. I know how busy you are.
Thanks for everything.
You helped me keep my grandfather's company safe.
I didn't call to brag.
I have something to tell you.
Okay.
Nam Tae Hyung.
Yes.
What?
(Management and Planning Director Nam Tae Hyung)
What's that face about?
You look like a 20-year-old boy that just got into college.
You're making that face after spending the night together with consent?
It's too cute.
Oh, gosh, I'm sorry.
I had so much to drink last night...
That means...
it was the alcohol talking.
It sounds like you weren't serious about me.
No, that's not what I mean.
Of course it's not.
You were so very sincere last night.
To me.
Why don't I remember a thing?
(Missed calls: Baek Ju Hong)
What on earth was I thinking to do that with her?
What are you up to, Nam Tae Hyung?
Jeez.
My mom? What exactly is wrong with her?
I think it's a cold.
She won't eat dinner or go home when I told her to.
I think you should come over.
Of course I should.
I'm leaving work now. I'll be there soon.
Thanks, Jin Ho. Bye.
A drinking session ended late and I couldn't go home last night.
Today, something came up at work and I was here all day.
See you at home later.
(CEO Woo Ji Hwan)
You won't be satisfied with kicking him out of the company.
I feel the same.
We must ruin Nam Tae Hyung's life completely.
- Yes? - You're still here, sir.
I saw the light was on during patrol and I came in.
Once I'm done, I'll turn off all the lights before I leave.
You needn't worry.
Not at all. Director Nam's in his office too.
I'll take another look around.
Goodbye.
Why haven't you found Mr. Kim yet?
Wei Huang in Hong Kong gave them my name.
Even my grandfather knows that.
Won't the police watch me as well as you, Mother?
You might not be cleared even if he turns himself in.
Now...
That's fine. Let's talk again later.
Why did you come in without knocking?
I knocked. Didn't you hear it?
I was passing by and saw your lights were on.
Are you going to come in on weekends...
to campaign to turn off the lights?
Do you want to show off you're the CEO?
I guess so.
Now that I'm CEO, I see things I didn't before.
I'm even grateful you come in on weekends to work.
Cut the nonsense.
- When will you go home? - Why do you care?
I don't think you came home last night.
I'm wondering if you will go home early today.
I don't care where you were or what you did,
but Grandpa was so worried.
In case you get drunk and end up...
behind the steering wheel again.
What?
You seem to have a habit of driving while drunk.
I heard drunken habits...
are so hard to break.
What nonsense are you saying?
I'm not talking nonsense. I just want you to be careful.
Better safe than sorry.
Watch it.
Go home early today. I'll see you there.
You don't seem to know,
but you stepped onto the path to destruction long ago.
From what you tried to frame Mr. Kim with,
to what you did to my mom while driving drunk.
I'll reveal it all.
Remember that day isn't far off.
She should close up early and go home if she's tired.
She works hard every day...
because she hates sitting numbly on her own.
No wonder she got sick.
Perfect.
Hello, Ms. Sim.
Have some of this.
What did you make when you must be busy closing up?
Today's meat was fresh, so I made beef porridge.
Have a few mouthfuls.
I caused busy you a hassle.
What could be more important than this?
Here, have some.
- Go on. - My goodness.
It's just a cold.
You've been working too hard.
You should watch your health now.
I know that, but a busy body...
means my mind wanders less.
Whenever I slack off,
I think of my husband and how I was wronged.
My mind just goes crazy with such ideas.
I know.
You should think of Ju Hong.
She'd be so upset to hear you're sick.
For her sake, look after yourself.
I will, so don't tell her.
- Okay. - "Okay."
You'll say that then tattle, won't you?
Finish the whole bowl.
If you eat it all, I won't tell her.
Goodness. As if I have a choice other than eating.
Mom.
Did you tell her?
Of course I did.
I'm more afraid of her than you.
Mom.
I'm fine.
You're not fine. Your face looks so gaunt.
Goodness. People get sick every now and then.
Why make such a fuss over nothing?
Why did you suddenly get sick? Did something bad happen?
Not at all.
Did Tae Hee's lawyer come by again?
Is that why you're sick?
No. It's not that, so don't worry.
This is your fault for calling her.
You say that,
but your face brightened the moment she came in.
My gosh. You're so cheeky.
Eat up.
Okay, then.
Oh, it's tasty.
She ate it all.
Yes, she said it was good.
I hope she gets better after a good night's sleep.
Thank you.
You don't know how reassuring it is to have you around, do you?
Why don't I know? I know very well.
- I'll get going, then. - Ju Hong.
Yes?
Tae Hee's trial is coming up.
So what?
Why can't you just say it?
The US?
I'll appoint you head of the branch office.
Leave as soon as your divorce is final.
Grandpa.
We signed a deal with A Market.
The US market will become much larger than it is now.
Take the experience and know-how you gained here...
and work to your heart's content.
Do I make you feel that uncomfortable?
What do you mean by that?
You want to live happily with Ji Hwan,
and I'm in the way and you don't like that.
Why would you say that?
If that's not it, why now?
Why are you trying so hard to send me away?
You signed two power of attorney, made your shares useless,
and as a result, you got Tae Hyung out of the running.
Your mother will want revenge.
That idea keeps me up at night.
Why do you care?
What do you mean?
You're my granddaughter. Naturally, I'd be worried.
Just be honest.
You kicked out my mom and I'm next.
You're different from Tae Hyung.
You were born without a father and when I held you,
I shed so many tears.
You have been lied to all those years.
You must hate me for it.
- Tae Hee. - I won't go anywhere.
I'll stay at your house, in my room.
I won't leave.
So don't think of sending me to the US.
Let's talk.
I have nothing to say to you.
The lawyer you hired from that amazing law firm.
If she harasses my mom once more...
Then what? Will you sue?
You talk like that to me,
but you have your lawyer see my mom. Don't you think that's cowardly?
I'll say this again.
I don't need your family's petition, so don't make me look bad.
I can prove my innocence in court without a petition.
He wants me to go to the US?
He pretends to care about me when in reality...
he's clearing all of Ji Hwan's obstacles.
He wants to get rid of me in a way that looks nice.
Well? What is this about?
How long...
will you stay in that house?
Oh...
The result of Tae Hee's trial is up to the judge.
You can leave that place now.
I'm just thinking how tough it must be for you.
Seeing those dreadful people every day.
It must be torture.
I've only been there a few months.
Ji Hwan lost his mother overnight...
and lived in torment for the past nine years.
If my dad had said just one word,
he wouldn't have had to go through all that.
However hard it is for me,
I can't just pack and leave because I'm done.
I see your point.
So that Tae Hyung and Ham Sook Jin are ruined sooner,
I must do all I can to help.
Do you think...
that's what Ji Hwan wants?
Thinking only of myself because Ji Hwan won't want it...
is too cowardly.
There must still be something I can do here.
Weren't you on night duty tonight?
I got back not long ago.
I see.
I didn't know my phone had died yesterday.
You texted me. You said a party dragged on.
Yes, it did.
I have to read a few papers.
Okay, go ahead.
Ju Hong won't even imagine.
It won't happen again.
I just need to...
cover it up this once.
What do you say?
As of right now, Youngin Construction's offer...
is the best for us.
I'm not sure. A merger?
That means WIDE will disappear.
You already passed the point of no return.
Ji Hwan may be CEO,
but he's practically a robot controlled by the chairman.
Would the chairman just let you be?
I think you're at the top of the to-be-fired directors list.
Why is Youngin Construction suddenly showing interest in WIDE?
Did you check?
The premium apartment complex Youngin Construction is going to build.
Our company's mats will be offered as a built-in option.
If this merger works out, it'll be a profit for both sides.
If it goes wrong,
we can end up as Youngin's subcontractor.
I don't think you're in the position to worry about that.
Your future looks bleak...
and you're worried about the company?
My position, pay, and benefits.
Are they guaranteed?
Of course they are. No doubt.
I have nowhere to go. I'll just take it head on.
If I waste time and end up jobless,
no one will look after me in my old age.
Even if I end up quitting,
I'll do what Ms. Ham told me to,
get the money she promised to finance my business, and then quit.
But if the chairman...
recognizes my voice from that day and reports me,
I'll end up behind bars.
Oh, what should you do, Yoo Kwang Mi?
Hello.
Seolleongtang lawyer.
Oh, not anymore.
You're the CEO now.
I texted a few times but you didn't reply.
I thought something was wrong.
What? Oh, right.
When I heard the chairman had recovered,
all the nerves and tension melted away,
and I got sick.
Oh, you were sick?
Should you take more days off?
I should, don't you think?
I'm not fully recovered and I'm breaking out in a cold sweat.
I should take a few more days off, don't you think?
Then I'll get myself back together...
and then come back later on.
Ms. Yoo!
Where is Mr. Kim right now?
Keep him there. I'm coming over.
Don't touch a hair. We must send him straight to the police.
The police?
Mr. Kim?
Sol, did you not have a stomach ache after having ice cream before bed?
No, I was fine.
It was hard staying away from the extra mouthful, wasn't it?
I should listen to you if I'm to stay away from the ER.
I know that much now.
Once it's your turn and you get the transplant,
you won't have to worry about going to the ER.
"I hope our Sol gets surgery soon."
Is that what you're thinking?
How do you know?
Sol knows everything.
Granny was listening to us, Dad.
I guess so.
Sol is pretty.
Yes. Our Sol is pretty.
Min Young is pretty too.
I'm drawing Min Young. I'll make her pretty.
Woo Ji Hwan speaking.
Who is Mr. Kim?
What?
Ms. Ham left in a hurry.
Something about going to the police.
Is someone called Mr. Kim important?
Jin Ho, do you have the location?
Yes, I got it and I'm on the move.
What if Ham Sook Jin gets to him first?
Whether she forces him there or he goes voluntarily,
the destination is the police station.
And either way, Mr. Km will have made up his mind.
It'll be dangerous if you stay too close.
Just follow their route.
Okay, thanks. Bye.
You're doing the right thing.
We wasted so much time when it was bound to end like this.
If you wanted to see your mother, you should've said so.
You didn't have to worry so much about something so trivial.
Even the heavens will acknowledge what a good son you are.
The men outside my home...
and my mother's care home. I want them gone today.
Don't worry about that.
- Did you hear that, Mr. Yang? - Yes.
Things have changed and prison life isn't as bad.
It shouldn't be too inconvenient.
Don't worry about things on the outside and do your thing.
(CEO Woo Ji Hwan)
Hi, Jin Ho. What's up?
Mr. Kim sided with Ms. Ham again.
She has a huge smile on her face. I think he'll turn himself in.
They just went into the police station.
Did he go to the police station as soon as he met Ham Sook Jin?
No, he stopped by his mom's care home.
He must've asked for time to say goodbye.
Really? Are you sure about it this time?
Mr. Yang made sure he went inside the police station.
That's good to hear. Well done.
We took a detour and it took a while longer,
but things got sorted out and that's that.
We just have to wrap things up with Youngin Construction.
What did Director Kim say?
What can he do when everyone knows he opposed the chairman?
He has no choice but to side with us.
Director Kang seems interested too.
- Did you talk to him? - Yesterday.
The police will announce...
that the embezzlement and dereliction were Kim Yoon Tae's doing.
They will all move on in peace.
When are you meeting the people from Youngin?
This evening.
That's perfect.
What do you want now?
I'm not here to see you.
I'm here to see ex-CEO Ms. Ham.
Me?
What business could you have with me?
Come in.
Ex-CEO Ms. Ham is in here.
I'm from Iryu Police Station Team 1.
Detective An Seung Gil.
This is an exigent arrest or embezzlement and dereliction.
An exigent arrest? Do you have a warrant?
Yes, I do.
Come with us.
You can keep quiet, hire a lawyer,
and all you say can...
What are you on about? What are you saying I did?
Let's talk at the station.
I told you that it was all Kim Yoon Tae's doing.
Mr. Kim came to the station not long ago.
Then you can investigate him.
Why are you arresting me when he turned himself in?
He didn't turn himself in.
He reported you.
What?
Wait, let go of me.
I didn't do anything.
I didn't do...
Was it you, Ji Hwan?
Did you plan all this?
(The Secret House)
He was allowed last time. Why can't he come in today?
Mr. Nam will be investigated soon too.
Mr. Kim's wife.
Her phone's turned off and can't be traced.
We must find her quick. I bet she has it.
I'll be there in 20 minutes.
Okay, I'll be right there.
Tae Hyung also knows Mr. Kim took the money.
He'll be dealing with the million dollars.
It'll blow over just fine. It has to.
