(Episode 48)
Who put you up to it?
The person who killed my mom.
Was it Ham Sook Jin or Nam Tae Hyung?
Mr. Yang.
What are you doing in here?
I asked why you're here.
It's nothing, really. Excuse me.
Wait.
It's you, isn't it?
You made Tae Hyung resign.
You started it, didn't you?
And you stole Mr. Yang's car.
Can you explain so I may understand?
I was right.
Your silly sense of paranoia caused all this.
Your sister, your mom.
You thought of nothing else,
got consumed by the thought,
and concluded that I had you attacked.
Is that why you dragged Tae Hyung down?
And you followed Mr. Yang to steal the apple box?
It was an apple box.
What?
What Mr. Yang tried to sneak out of my restaurant.
It was an apple box.
An apple box...
You can't have been looking that desperately for apples.
Was there cash inside?
Don't try to get smart. I caught you red-handed.
I came here to ask why...
Mr. Yang searched my restaurant.
You answered my question for me.
Ji Hwan. Is this why you moved in?
To sneak around like a little mouse...
and gnaw away at us.
Watch what you say, Ms. Ham.
I don't know what the box was and how much was inside,
but I had nothing to do with it.
Quit fooling around and show what you're planning.
The day I force you to do that,
you will regret it dearly.
The day my mask comes off,
you will be the one to regret dearly.
What's going on?
Nothing's going on.
Ji Hwan. Mom did something, didn't she?
You two seem to get along great.
Not at all.
I was shocked when he barged in.
Are you hiding something from me?
No.
Look into my eyes and answer.
Trust me. I'm not hiding anything.
Have you forgotten already what our deal was?
You begged me to let you be around your daughter.
It's been 30 years. Is your judgment clouding?
Why are you being so stupid?
Are you thinking you don't need to see your daughter again?
Ms. Ham.
Don't forget that your daughter's life is in my hands.
Unless you want to see me kick Tae Hee out,
do your part.
If you want to stay close enough so you can see her shadow,
you'd better do as I say.
Get rid of Ji Hwan.
Do it so no one notices.
Tell me, Ji Hwan.
Why did you go to Mr. Yang's room...
Forget about that.
The evidence you told me about.
Can you give it to me?
What if I have evidence?
What if I say I'll give it to you,
will you accept me?
Do you know what you're saying?
I'll give it to you.
I'll give it to you. Take my hand.
Side with me and get revenge.
Can you give it to me?
Well...
I won't tell anyone I got it from you. I can promise you that.
If I give him Mom's bloody coat,
he won't need me anymore.
I'm sorry, Ji Hwan.
It's...
gone.
- It's gone? - Yes.
It was security footage showing the front gate.
The car bonnet was badly damaged in an accident.
The camera caught Mom barely hauling in drunk Tae Hyung.
It disappeared a few days ago.
I should've put it somewhere safe.
I'm really sorry.
I knew you wouldn't tell the truth.
But you'd better next time.
Unlike today, I won't let go then.
"I won't let go then."
He said that for me to hear.
He's doing his very best to die an early death.
I have no choice but to help him.
- Dad. - Yes?
Can I see your phone?
- My phone? - Yes.
Sure.
Do you want to play a game?
No. I want Ju Hong's number.
You want what?
I could get it behind your back,
but I'm asking you because you said we shouldn't keep secrets.
So don't be angry.
- Sol. - Ju Hong's number...
got deleted from my phone.
All the other contacts are there.
Just Ju Hong's is gone.
All her photos and texts too.
So...
I went to see her.
But she wouldn't give me her number.
She said you wouldn't like it.
That she's going to the US and can't stay in touch.
It's true. She's going far away.
But if you let me have her number,
I'd like to keep in touch with her.
Will you let me have it?
Will you?
Can I have it?
Thanks... I'll get my own.
This is our first meal together.
I don't like that it's pork backbone in a red broth.
Eat up.
You'll never find a place that sells steak at this hour.
I could find a place if I were to call a chef.
Forget it. That's not my style,
and I don't like steak.
That's hot.
How lethal.
- What is? - You.
You're lethal to me.
I resigned from my post, got egged,
and even got questioned by police,
and all I see is you.
Even I think that's unbelievable.
I'm here because you said we wouldn't talk.
So please stop.
People have a strange effect.
Not long ago, I felt I'd rather die.
The moment I saw you, I was transported to another world.
I said stop it.
How smart of you to think of going to the hospital.
I was talking to myself.
Block your ears if you don't want to listen.
What did you mean earlier?
You said we won't have to do this again.
It sounded like you're going somewhere.
You're right. I'm leaving to study.
You're leaving to study?
I want to grow up fast.
- Why? - Adults get to do whatever they want.
I can't do anything.
- Sol. - I'm tired. I want to sleep.
You should go.
I can't believe I'm walking about this late without a car.
It has been ages since I did this.
I said go. You live in the opposite direction.
Will you really go to the US?
- What? - Don't go.
- This is unbelievable. - I'll treat you well.
Are you drunk on stew? Why are you talking nonsense?
- I'm not talking nonsense. - Stop it and go home.
- And don't come by again. - Don't go.
I have lots of time to kill now that I'm not an assemblyman or prosecutor.
Will you not go? Stay here.
Or...
No amount of time...
will correct your habit of not knowing when to get lost.
Please...
talk to Sol.
She must have been upset today.
Thanks for helping her get over things.
Is that something you should be thanking me for?
It broke my heart.
She won't visit you again. I'll talk to her.
Don't.
If you know how bad it is for her to get stressed out...
No. It's none of my business.
I'm desperate to leave this place as soon as possible.
You barely ate anything last night.
I ground up some yams for you.
Thanks.
Did you get some sleep?
I woke up when Tae Hyung came in.
I couldn't go back to sleep after that.
Looks like the investigation went well. Don't worry too much.
Okay.
Take the morning off to rest.
Call me if there's anything you'd like to eat.
I will.
She's definitely up to something.
Why is she trying to get so close to her grandfather these days?
Did you think about what Tae Hyung should do now?
Why?
I'm just wondering what you're thinking.
I'd like to hear your plans and then talk to Tae Hyung.
What can he do?
The law is the only thing he knows. He should be a lawyer.
- Right? - Why do you ask?
Do you have any other ideas, Ms. Nam?
No. I agree with Grandpa,
but if Tae Hyung says he wants to join the company...
I can't let him do that.
He must practice law and build up his reputation.
Only then can he run in...
the general or presidential election.
- Right? - Yes.
I guess a bad thing isn't always just bad.
Your grandchildren seemed almost estranged,
but they're both so different now.
When something bad happens, family really does stick together.
Isn't it pretty?
I took it off while I got tested, but you can have it.
This is something you treasure and you're giving it to Auntie?
Yes, because she came to see me.
For real? Is Auntie going to stay with us?
Every day?
- Are you pleased? - Totally.
This is my aunt. Isn't she pretty?
Can I have friends over next week?
Why? Is it a special day?
It's my birthday.
I will...
prepare a birthday party.
Shouldn't she go to the ER?
I don't want to go.
If I go, I can't have my party tomorrow.
I invited all my friends.
We just need the fever to go. Get some sleep and don't worry.
Can we have the party tomorrow?
Yes.
I will inflate some balloons...
and cook some food.
I bought you a dress to wear too. You can wear that for the party.
What? Are you ready for school already?
Can I wait in the garden?
Yes. I'll get ready and join you soon.
My gosh. Are you leaving for school, Sol?
Yes. See you later.
You're so polite.
You're raised by a single father.
Where did he get you that pretty dress?
My aunt bought it for me.
Oh, is that so? I see.
Your aunt bought it for you.
Yes. My aunt is sweet and she's pretty too.
Where is your aunt?
- What? - Don't you know where she is?
She used to work at a convenience store,
but now...
- But now what? - I don't know.
She doesn't answer her phone.
Did you not ask your dad why she doesn't answer her phone?
He said she must be busy.
That's not the truth.
Your aunt can't answer her phone forever.
You didn't know that.
Why not? Why can't she answer it forever?
Do you know who your mom is?
Did your dad not tell you?
Do you really not know who your mom is?
Stop it!
Sol, wait in the garden.
- Dad. - Wait outside. I'll be there soon.
Let's talk another time.
What are you doing to her?
She's old enough.
Shouldn't she know about her mom?
Don't you mention my sister again.
I don't think I can guarantee I won't blurt something out.
- Ms. Ham. - Everything will be fine...
if you and your daughter disappear from my sight.
Everything you worry about depends on you.
Remember that, okay?
You ate what with whom?
I wondered who you'd eaten with that late.
Why did he come to see you...
when he must be busy talking to the police?
He said he was hungry.
Don't talk to him again.
Don't even look at him.
Yes. What if you get egged while you're around him?
Don't you remember I was great at dodgeball in school?
- What? - I was the last one standing...
because I'm great at avoiding flying objects.
So what? You can avoid eggs too?
Yes.
It's no laughing matter.
Don't chat with Tae Hyung again.
Ignore him.
You're making such a huge fuss when all we did was eat together.
I don't like him. Even thinking about him.
I got it, okay?
Yesterday was the last time. Are you happy now?
Why are you here this early?
I'm packing up.
Leave it. I'll do it for you.
You can pack your things, chief.
I'll pack mine.
"Chief?"
Throw out anything related to the election.
Weren't you going to keep this office to prepare for the next election?
What next election?
Do you think that's plausible?
What happens to me, then?
Consider this a holiday and take a break.
Sir, you can't...
I quit my job to serve you.
I'm no longer an assemblyman, so you're no longer an aide.
Doesn't that mean our deal is done?
Don't you get something that simple?
Sir, you can't let me go like this.
I need an income to support my family.
Sir. Can you please reconsider?
You're so impatient.
I need to pack things up here...
if I'm to find us a job somewhere else, okay?
Go on.
Yes, sir.
You can't expect to be let go...
after what you did to my son.
A list of the chairman's properties that you asked for.
Good job.
So, did you make up your mind?
It can't look like an accidental death.
Don't involve anyone else because that's even riskier.
Take care of him yourself.
Do it tonight if you can.
The thorn in my side is getting too big.
Do you know who your mom is?
Do you really not know who your mom is?
Do you not have a desk here yet?
I'm under probation and I'm touring all the departments.
Get lost when you're done.
There's no room for you in this company.
Sorry. I don't plan to get lost.
Then you'll only have a rotten time.
Who can stop you?
There's one more thing.
Stay away from Ju Hong while I'm being nice about it.
Why did you jog all the way to her neighborhood?
I'm at work. Can we talk about our personal issues at home?
Watch out. I warned you.
Here.
Including the building he bought recently,
that's the full list of properties your grandfather owns.
He has properties scattered all over the country.
Shopping for land and buildings is the old man's only hobby.
How many of these are in the company name?
About half of them, I think.
Then let's start with those.
Take out mortgages on them starting with the ones furthest away.
- So he won't notice. - Mortgages?
We'll take out loans on them and gather cash.
I'll find some investments.
Be ready to launder it.
Do you have something to say?
Why are you suddenly interested in your grandfather's assets?
Why? Isn't it natural?
Who other than me would do that?
You're right,
but I don't like you getting your hands dirty.
No. The company and the assets. I will take what's mine now.
You should take a break and then get back into politics.
Once the uproar dies down,
we'll find a way to get you back in the game.
- I'm done with politics. - Tae Hyung.
I don't have the time for that.
Not when Ji Hwan joined the company.
Don't mind him.
You can't make such a rash decision about your whole future.
I'm done thinking. Get me a job here.
Tae Hyung.
Darn it.
Can you do it?
It's not a tough task.
Are you sure you're safe in there?
Don't worry about me.
Look after yourself.
I don't want to worry but I have nightmares every night.
About you drinking poisoned water...
or getting smothered with a pillow.
I won't drink their water, so don't worry.
How about putting a digital lock on your door?
I have to go. Take care of that for me.
I'll start working at the company next week.
What are you talking about? What company?
Which do you think?
WIDE, the company you worked hard to build up.
What do you think you can do there?
Whether it's a country or company, you only care for number one.
I'll make it number one.
I'm home.
I'll join WIDE...
and make it the number one company in Korea.
Teach your grandson and successor well.
Now. Do it.
Let's meet in the basement.
The basement?
I'm against...
you joining the company.
- Grandpa. - Let's not rush the decision.
We'll think about it for a while.
You'll find a staircase to the right, outside the main entrance.
Mother.
What is it?
Read this.
I'll read it later. Put it on my table.
You should read it now.
The sender is...
What about the sender?
(Nam Chan Woo)
- What is it? - It's in Dad's name.
What?
- Shall I open it? - No. I'll open it.
(Nam Tae Hee's not my father Nam Heung Sik's granddaughter.)
- Mom. - Mother.
What's the matter?
Don't!
Leave it.
(The Secret House)
You stepped foot in a swamp you can't get out of.
- Proof? - It was sent in Dad's name.
No, you don't have to.
It's not that I don't like you. I dislike you.
Every time I see the person before me, I think of Min Young.
Take my father-in-law somewhere.
- What? - Take him out of the house.
We must find that woman.
I'll cause you so much pain, you'll feel that living is like dying.
I swear.
