(Episode 16)
What are you doing here?
I hit...
Woo Ji Hwan's mother?
I asked what you're doing here.
Where did she go, then?
- Nam Tae Hyung. - Is she...
dead?
- Don't you hear me? - Your mom.
What about my mom?
Focus on finding her.
Don't waste your time on anything else.
Quit trying to hit on other women.
- What? - Is Ju Hong not enough?
You seem to be using Tae Hee too.
Did you think I'd just let you?
Don't toy with my sister.
You can't have Ju Hong either.
Tell me why you came here.
What were you doing staring at that flyer?
You heard me. I just explained!
You came here just to say that?
To tell me not to hit on women?
You know that...
you're acting weird, don't you?
Move.
(Mom's Seolleongtang)
It should've stayed hidden.
Why did I remember it all now?
What about Sol?
I want to take her with me.
What are you talking about?
I'll take care of her now.
I'll raise her myself.
Min Young.
Ju Hong's parents disapprove of you.
Well...
I thought about it,
and I understand where they're coming from.
Min Young.
They won't disapprove of you if Sol's out of the picture.
- If I take her... - No.
I'll persuade Ju Hong's parents.
It'll be tough with Sol.
Since she was born, I was never without her.
Before opening the restaurant, I carried her everywhere...
to shop and fix the interior.
I took her, spare diapers, and formula...
to meet work clients.
I don't want to hurt her by sending her away.
I won't do it.
But you have your own life to live.
I can get Ju Hong's parents to accept me.
Don't worry.
I returned the envelope.
To whom?
Tae Hyung.
The moment Tae Hyung gets wind of this,
I'll expose you for what you are, so beware.
Did he take it?
Yes.
He's usually chatty but he was lost for words when he saw it.
He was that bewildered.
Why did you go and do that?
My goodness.
Do you look down on me?
Did I say that?
You took the money and returned it.
Isn't that looking down on me?
We might as well talk about it now.
Ms. Ham. What did she tell you to forget?
Why did she tell you to stop talking about conscience?
Why couldn't you say a word?
What did you do wrong that you cower before her?
Isn't it obvious?
"Don't mind Ji Hwan. Forget about him."
"Stop talking about conscience..."
"and end up ruining your daughter's future."
That must be it.
Right?
Where are you going? Finish your food!
Do you understand why he's doing that?
Of course I do.
Gosh, why are you doing this to me? Don't treat me like I'm a kid.
You'll know when you have your own child later.
You're trying to go into the fiery pit.
No parent can say yes to that.
Who's going into the fiery pit?
Why is seeing Ji Hwan going into the fiery pit?
Do you really not know why?
No matter how hard I think, I have no idea.
My goodness. Don't thank me later when it's all over.
Even his sister couldn't say anything considering Ji Hwan's situation.
What are you talking about?
Did you talk to Min Young?
Of course I did. Did you think I wouldn't do anything?
Mom!
I was the one who did it.
That woman...
I had some work to do,
so I came out again after putting Sol to sleep.
Min Young must be upset, right?
My parents shouldn't be doing this. Don't you think so?
It's so cheap to use Sol as an excuse.
We already knew that they would be against us.
And it's only natural for them to do so.
How can you be so generous, Ji Hwan?
How are you doing at home? Are you walking on eggshells?
Either eggshells or top shells, I'll walk through them.
I'll hang in there, so don't worry about me.
Okay. I trust you, Ju Hong.
All right.
Thank you.
I like you.
Why aren't you saying anything?
Oh, well... Me too.
"Me too?"
"I love you," comes after "I like you."
I know I'm impatient, but I'm going to wait until you say that first.
Just keep that in mind.
Taebaek?
You know this place called Gangin Nursing Home, right?
No. I've never heard of it before.
Park Kyung Taek from the nursing home. Don't you know him?
I don't know him.
Then I guess you don't know what's going on between him and my mother.
What can I do for you?
How far do you know about her matters?
You do whatever she tells you to do, right?
- Yes. - That's why.
If you said you knew him, I wouldn't have any doubts.
But you said you didn't know him.
I guess there is something going on between Mr. Park and my mother.
And Ji Hwan and I should not find out about it, right?
(Search route.)
(Integrated search)
(Office, Home)
Does she delete the places right away so they won't cause any trouble?
You could've been in trouble if it weren't for me today.
- Am I wrong? - You are.
I've never done anything that would get me into trouble.
She went out to see Mr. Park that day, but she said she wasn't.
Park Kyung Taek from Gangin Nursing Home. Do you know him?
When I went to Taebaek to find my mother,
he was the chief administrator at that nursing home.
Ji Hwan asked me about him, so it means Mother is related.
(Lawyer Woo Ji Hwan)
Mr. Baek.
Why are you looking at me like that?
Am I not allowed to be here?
Where did you drink so much?
How can I not drink like this?
I can't even breathe when I'm sober.
I'm the one who made this mess.
You should sit over here, Mr. Baek.
I can't let you be with her.
I can never let you do that.
- Mr. Baek. - Don't call me like that.
Please don't do that.
Mr. Baek.
You took care of me as if I were your son.
When I was so miserable after my mom went missing,
you were the one who took care of me.
Give me a chance...
so that I can pay you back.
That's what I'm saying.
I took you to the countryside...
and taught you how to cook meat and make broth.
That's how I saved you.
So I'm asking you to save me this time.
- Mr. Baek. - Please cut me some slack.
Please let me live, Ji Hwan.
Gosh. Why are you doing this? Please get up.
I'm the one who's at fault.
Either when I'm alive or dead,
I will get punished for what I did.
My Ju Hong...
Please let go of Ju Hong.
- Mr. Baek. - I hate it.
I hate you and Sol too.
I hate all of you.
I said I hate all of you!
Tae Hyung.
What's wrong? Are you not feeling well?
Do you think you need to see a doctor?
It was...
Ji Hwan's mother who I hit that day, right?
Right?
Why are you saying that all of a sudden?
Why is she missing?
- Tae Hyung. - Is she dead?
Calm down and listen to me.
Is she dead?
Yes, she's dead.
But it wasn't because of the accident. She lived after the accident.
She was hospitalized.
She lived until just recently.
Then what happened?
She got as much money as she wanted.
She died after causing enough trouble for me.
She had lived long enough and had died when it was her time.
The time when she died won't make any difference to us.
- So... - So...
you've been hiding her for more than nine years?
That was the only way to protect you.
You were about to enter the Judicial Training Institute.
What other choices did I have?
Besides, without Ji Hwan,
you were the top student.
Is that why I could do the oath as the representative?
You didn't know about it back then.
And you still don't know about it.
I'll end up in the fiery pit.
So please pretend as if you don't know it.
Just let it go, will you?
Of course.
You caused all this.
You need to take care of it.
You're the one who caused the accident.
The victim is dead and gone.
It's perfect.
Tae Hyung, are you okay?
It seemed that you drank a lot yesterday.
Give up on Ji Hwan.
Why did you go and talk to Ju Hong about him?
Do you think that makes sense?
It's not a bad deal for you.
- Nam Tae Hee. - I'll help you.
If I take Ji Hwan,
Ju Hong has no choice then.
She will reconsider you.
Don't act up.
Give up on him.
Just trust me this once.
I have everything planned out.
(Woo Min Young)
I won't say this again. I'm against that punk, okay?
Woo Min Young?
Is that Min Young?
That's enough. You should stop now, Woo Min Young.
Ju Hong.
Min Young.
Why are you out here this early?
Can we have a word?
You must be upset about my mom.
I'll make sure it never happens again. I'm really sorry.
Are you here...
to tell me you don't want me to marry Ji Hwan?
I'm here...
because of Sol.
Sol? What about her?
It's such an embarrassing story.
I don't know where to begin.
Sol isn't Ji Hwan's daughter.
What do you mean?
Sol is mine.
Min Young.
I was single and unmarried,
and at the time,
I just wanted to die.
I had...
abandoned her,
but Ji Hwan took her in.
He was just 24 and I turned him into a dad.
Ji Hwan...
never considered Sol a burden.
You know how much he loved her.
He's dating someone great like you,
and because of me...
I want to tell your mother the truth,
but Ji Hwan won't let me.
He says it'll only hurt Sol.
I'm with him on that.
I don't want her to get hurt.
Thank you for telling me this.
I'll be really good to her.
Let's...
raise Sol as best we can.
The three of us can look after her.
Can't we?
(Lawyer Woo Ji Hwan)
Ju Hong, why are you here?
You're a liar, a fraud, and a jerk.
How could you do this to me?
What's the matter?
You have no idea how stressed out I was.
Who's your first love I had no idea about?
What did I do while you went off and had a kid with someone?
Do you know how upset I was?
You didn't tell me anything...
and pretended to be a great guy.
What...
Can you tell me what this is about?
- Sol. - Sol?
I just met Min Young.
She told me everything.
- Oh, dear. - It must've been so stressful.
I had no idea.
I'm sorry. But...
I couldn't tell you the truth myself.
I get that. That's why I like you,
but sometimes... I feel left out.
I won't do it again.
Whatever.
I promise. I won't do it again.
Since when were you that great a guy?
Don't say that. I didn't do anything to deserve praise like that.
No. You are so admirable.
I'm proud of my boyfriend.
Good for you.
Who's the scumbag, then?
This is so infuriating.
The jerk abandoned his own kid.
Who's that?
Hello, Professor.
It's been a while, Ju Hong.
It has.
Ms. Nam Tae Hee who just left.
- Yes. - What was she here for?
She's a friend and I'm worried she's sick.
The law forbids me from sharing medical information.
I'm an ER resident.
Can't you tell me?
Sorry, I can't.
You have a good friend, though.
Why are you at home?
Is Sol sick?
She came home early with a fever.
She was fine in the morning.
I know.
Shouldn't she go to the ER?
I don't want to go to the hospital.
If I do, I'll have to cancel my birthday party.
I invited all my friends.
We just need the fever to go down. Get some sleep.
Can I celebrate with a party tomorrow?
Of course you can.
I'll blow up the balloons,
and cook something.
I even bought you a dress to wear for the party.
Okay.
I'll bring a cold towel.
My dear Sol.
Were you sick all this time?
I should be punished instead.
I should be sick instead.
When you were inside me,
I'm sorry for having bad thoughts.
You were such a tiny baby.
I won't ever...
leave you again, Sol.
Ms. Nam,
Friday, May 6, 10 a.m., ultrasound.
Come to Radiology, Block 1 2nd floor.
I'll save Sol, Ji Hwan.
Don't you have work?
Shouldn't you get ready?
I quit. I don't have to go.
What do you mean you quit?
Get up already!
Why did you quit your job? You've been doing well!
Yesterday, Ju Hong...
returned the envelope to Prosecutor Nam.
I apologize.
I will resign.
Does that mean Tae Hyung knows?
Sang Gu, you idiot!
When did she get sick? You didn't say anything this morning.
She was fine in the morning.
Let's do a blood test first.
Over here.
I don't want to stay.
Give me a fever reducer so I can go home.
I'll run some tests...
and see if that's all you need.
I have to set things up for my party.
Right. It's your birthday tomorrow.
Let's try to get you well soon so you can hurry home.
There. Well done, Sol.
Let's see.
Can you excuse me for a bit?
Min Young did?
Yes. That's what she said when I met her earlier.
Soon, I'll get someone for the transplant.
Really? Who is it?
I'll get a definite answer today or tomorrow at the latest.
I'll call you when it's decided.
She said it will only take a few days.
Didn't you hear anything?
We can't wait forever.
We have to save Sol.
I must do that at least.
You forgot your phone? Do you want to use mine?
No. I'll call her later.
I hope it will be decided soon.
So Sol won't have to suffer anymore.
Gosh. Why the long face?
- Tae Hyung. - You should discuss...
everything with me from now on.
You don't have to care about trivial things.
I will decide if it's trivial or not!
It's a different situation since I know about it now.
Making decisions or taking care of things on your own...
- won't happen from now on. - Tae Hyung.
Don't you know that what you did to Ji Hwan's mother...
can cause a serious problem for me?
I had no choice.
If you were going to forge it as your fault,
you should've done it better.
You should've said that you caused the accident and you were sorry.
You should've told Ji Hwan that, compensated him enough,
and ended everything nice and clean.
To protect you,
I've hidden that woman for nine years.
And you're resented for what I did?
How can I not resent you?
Because of you, Ji Hwan is full of spite now.
Tae Hyung.
- Why are you here? - Was it you?
Was it you...
who did that to my mother?
Nam Tae Hyung!
Answer my question!
(The Secret House)
Wait. All right.
I'll tell you where your mother is, so calm down.
If you keep quiet, I'll do anything for you.
You need to save Sol, right?
- Gosh, you startled me. - Why would you go there?
You said you will go to Taebaek.
Ji Hwan. I found mom.
I'm on my way.
Did you really find your mom?
I won't go down alone.
I'm telling you not to forget what I have on you.
Well...
An Kyung Sun might not be the only one to go missing.
