Da Jung.
(Episode 115)
Yo Han.
She left crying, didn't she?
Did something bad just happen?
Well...
Is it about her birth mother?
You knew?
Yes.
She looked upset, so I asked,
and she said she'd found her birth mother.
Give me a call when she comes back.
I'll do that.
She regrets that now.
When she realized you were her daughter, the shock drove her to drown...
When she realized I was her daughter,
she tried to kill herself.
You sly thing.
You're just a gold digger who used Chairman Wang!
How could a mother and daughter end up like this?
How am I to acknowledge this?
What are we doing, with the chairman in the middle?
How could fate be this cruel?
How?
Da Jung knows everything?
Yes.
She saw your death note in your office.
She told me you'd come to see her and called her "Go Eun."
She put all that together.
How did she seem to take it?
She resents me a lot, doesn't she?
Well...
She must be horrified that I'm the mom who abandoned her.
I hoped she'd never find out.
I'm sure she's just in shock.
She'll sort things out once she calms down.
No.
You don't have to try to comfort me.
I'd feel the same if I were in her position.
It's shameless of me to ask,
but will you console her for me?
It's fine.
It's not too late.
Why don't you try to talk to her?
You want me to meet Da Jung?
You got out sooner than I thought.
"Sooner?"
Is that all you can say to someone who suffered for days?
Don't get me wrong.
Considering how serious things were,
I thought you'd be in for longer for a thorough investigation.
It was serious?
You seem to know what the charges are.
Did you and Da Jung plan it?
Plan what? What are you insinuating?
The ones who reported me and replaced my stash with fakes.
Was it you and Da Jung?
Uncle.
If you're planning to wiggle your way out, give up.
I know Da Jung got into my office and looked around.
I have CCTV footage of it.
I don't know what you're talking about.
But however wronged you feel, you shouldn't blame your own nephew.
I see you're going to deny it. You'll regret that very much.
Sir. What's the matter? Sir!
What's that noise?
It was Ms. Yang's voice. What's going on?
Darling.
He had a seizure while eating broiled chicken with lingzhi mushrooms.
Just a moment.
Yes, we did that. Please hurry.
He ate this.
Darling. Wake up.
If he dies, I'll put you out of business!
What?
Things are going crazy at Bobaejung?
Okay. Good job.
I'll wire you the money soon. Just wait.
It worked.
What did she say?
He passed out, frothing at the mouth,
and an ambulance came and took him away,
and the woman he was with was hopping mad.
The place is a mess.
Da Jung should know that if she hurts us,
she will suffer even worse later on.
How dare she attack us?
That's right. How dare she come after us?
I'd have felt better if I saw what had happened.
It's a pity.
Mom. Where did you get the idea?
You're really something.
I used to steal and swap out the ingredients...
to make a few bucks when I was there.
I bought fake lingzhi mushrooms and all sorts of...
weird fake medicinal herbs from unknown places...
and changed the labels to make them look legit.
I see. And you put those skills to use.
The woman who helped me do that still works at Bobaejung.
I used her.
How's the patient doing?
He regained consciousness,
but he could show dangerous symptoms
like hallucinations, nausea, and vomiting, so we must observe him.
Hallucinations?
The mushrooms he ingested seemed to contain psilocybin.
That's a component of poisonous mushrooms.
What? A customer was taken to the ER?
How come?
Yes.
Okay.
What is it? Is something wrong?
Something bad happened at Bobaejung.
A customer ate poisonous mushrooms and went to the ER.
How did that happen?
I need to find out the details, but this will hurt the restaurant.
I hope nothing happens to Da Jung.
Yo Han. Do you think Se Ran and Cheon Ae Ja planned this?
- What? - Isn't this them getting back...
at Da Jung for the warehouse incident?
It could be.
Auntie.
How long will you let Cheon Ae Ja live in the greenhouse?
Should we call the police?
No. We should keep her here and harass her for a long time.
She's been through nothing compared to what she did to Da Jung.
We could keep her close,
use her for all she's worth, and then report her.
Right. You should go.
Okay.
That's a fake too.
Why did you bring the stupid thing back?
I just can't believe it.
You checked with a jeweler.
He said it was gold-plated scrap iron.
That's what is so weird.
Se Ran didn't seem to know it was fake.
Maybe the sly thing knew all along and just decided to mess with you again.
Why do you hang out with her after all she put you through?
You're just as helpless.
Mom!
I feel horrible already. Don't make things worse.
That's not the problem right now.
The problem is whether you'll get out of this alive.
What can I do when it has already happened?
What else can you do? Will the chairman just let you off?
You fell for another one of Se Ran's tricks...
and lost the chairman's favor that you were so close to getting.
What should we do about it now?
You're right.
Forget his favor, he'll want to kill me for trying to steal his money.
- What should I do, Mom? - Right now,
the only thing we can do to stay alive is to go to Da Jung and side with her.
(Bobaejung)
We take using fresh ingredients seriously,
so vegetables are delivered each morning.
Excuse me. Wait.
Get ready to close Bobaejung down.
I apologize.
I don't know if you'll believe me, but we don't joke around with food.
However, our negligence caused you great distress and for that,
I sincerely apologize.
No. We don't care about your apology.
How will you take responsibility?
I want practical solutions.
We'll cover the medical cost and compensate you for the damages.
You could've said that sooner.
Anyway, we'll discuss this with a lawyer.
You should be prepared.
I wish you a speedy recovery.
(Bobaejung)
How did I...
end up like this with my own mom?
I want to grab someone...
and ask and scream.
How could it be so cruel?
Go Eun.
I can't and won't believe you're my mom.
I don't want to accept it.
What I did to you,
what you did to me.
How can we take all that back?
(Dream Food)
Father. How did you get the prosecutors to let you go?
Are you displeased that I got out?
Why would I be displeased? I'm just curious.
- Mr. Kim decided to take the fall. - What?
The warehouse was on his land.
And the stock manipulation was all done in his name.
That's how he ended up with the money.
My gosh.
Mr. Kim said he'd take the fall for you?
What else can he do?
I hid a listening device in the pot. Leave it in the greenhouse.
Really? Thank you.
Also...
What? Do you have more to say?
Well...
It's about Kang Se Ran.
Back when I played small roles for a pay,
she hired me to play a part for her.
My gosh. Did she really?
She probably lied about her degree and the fact that she was an owner-chef.
Goodness. There's a cockroach.
This won't do.
What's she on about?
Where's the cockroach?
Is there really one?
I hate gross stuff like that.
Oh, dear.
I can't let a cockroach live here just because it's warmer.
I should exterminate it before it breeds.
Cheon Ae Ja. You still won't crawl out?
Take this.
Oh, my gosh.
She hasn't come out screaming, so I guess she can still breathe.
She's worse than a cockroach.
Breathe all that in and get exterminated.
Goodness.
Mother. What's this smell?
I saw a cockroach in the greenhouse.
So I sprayed some insecticide.
What?
The helper left to run a personal errand,
so clean up and throw away the cockroach carcass.
No, Mom.
Mom.
Sit up.
Mom.
Save me.
Mom.
Se Ran.
Mom. How do you feel?
Why did you stay in there breathing all that in?
You're not a mosquito!
You should've jumped out! Why did you stay in there?
If I jumped out,
the darn woman would jump at the chance to report me.
I couldn't do that.
- Mom. - Goodness.
It's okay.
I won't die over something like this.
You breathed in a whole can.
Mom. Bear with me.
I'll get the diamonds soon.
Once I get them, we'll move to a five-star hotel.
Are you sure we'll get to see...
the diamonds you talked about?
Yes.
They said the work on their side was almost done.
We'll get them in a few days.
(List of Suppliers)
I called and asked all the suppliers.
Recently, they sent us homegrown lingzhi mushrooms,
and they're all suppliers we trust.
What were the lingzhi mushrooms...
they found in our storage that were long expired?
They weren't even homegrown and had fake labels too.
I know.
How did someone know about them and use them...
to make the stock?
It's so strange.
I think someone planned it.
Right?
Who is Jung Da Jung, CEO of Bobaejung?
- I am. - Here you go.
According to Article 8 Clause 1 of the law covering food safety, labels, and notices,
you'll be suspended and fined.
(Bobaejung)
Goodness. What's going on?
Bobaejung was suspended?
Don't you think something's smelly?
What? What do you mean "smelly?"
You know what Da Jung's like. Would she mess with food?
She wouldn't. We can guarantee that.
Exactly.
She cares so much about food.
I think...
it was Se Ran's doing.
What? Se Ran?
You're right. That witch is more than capable of doing that.
It looks too deliberate to call it a mistake.
There are no cameras in the kitchen, so we don't know who did it.
A business suspension is a huge hit.
I feel bad putting Grandma through this.
This happened as soon as I became CEO.
It's not your fault.
Could Cheon Ae Ja and Se Ran have done it?
I thought of that too.
Is this how they're getting back at me for stopping them from stealing?
I can't forgive them for threatening a life.
Okay. See you later.
Da Jung.
Don't be too upset.
I worked practically all my life without taking a decent break.
Let's take this opportunity to go on a family trip,
and get some good-earned rest. That's how I see it.
I'm so thankful you said that.
But I still feel terrible.
Why should you feel bad?
We should make the evil things pay.
I didn't think they'd toy with food too.
Someone here must've helped them.
Let's not doubt people for no good reason.
So, are you not ready to ever...
forgive your mother?
What on earth did Da Jung do to them...
that they'd go this far?
All we have is suspicion, so it's a pity I can't report them.
My goodness...
- Auntie. - Yes?
How about you talk to Da Jung?
I'm not ready yet.
It would be better for Da Jung if I pretended not to know.
Me getting involved would only hurt her.
Don't you think ignoring her could hurt even more?
The mom who abandoned me as a child...
is abandoning me again as an older adult.
Wouldn't Da Jung feel as if she's being abandoned yet again?
That's not...
what I mean to do.
Of course, I know what you mean.
But if you don't say anything, Da Jung's thoughts...
might get more negative and darker.
Whether you make excuses or apologize,
you should do something.
Are you not ready to ever...
forgive your mother?
What?
You suspect Mr. Kim was in touch with Yo Han?
Why are you telling me this now?
What's that about?
Isn't Mr. Kim the guy who does everything for the chairman?
Why would he meet with Yo Han?
Se Ran told me to record everything, so I should record this too.
Then it's possible my slush fund was exposed...
because Mr. Kim leaked the information.
How dare Kim stab me in the back?
When someone hurts me, I always return the favor.
Make him look guilty and take care of it.
I let him off after he stole from me and this is how he repaid me?
How dare he?
Goodness.
They can't even open because they got suspended.
We can't open for a while. Please leave.
Wait.
I came to see you, Da Jung.
Can you spare me some time?
I have something to say.
What could we have to talk about?
I have nothing to hear or to say.
Let go of me.
I won't take long.
Please do this for me.
(Bobaejung)
I can give you three minutes.
Say what you will and then leave.
Da Jung.
Mom's sorry, Da Jung.
I mean...
Go Eun.
Don't say that name.
What right do you have to say it?
It wasn't easy.
I hurt so much I thought I would die.
That's why I thought I shouldn't show myself before you.
Then you never should have.
Why are you doing this now?
I didn't think it through.
Whatever the case, as soon as I'd found out,
I should've come to you and begged for forgiveness first.
I was a coward and couldn't do so.
Did you think...
I'd say thank you,
and that I was sorry too?
What's the point of this now?
You go on with your life.
I'll go on with mine.
The time's up. You should go now.
There is a point to this.
The twisted knot inside of you.
I caused it.
I must apologize before I die.
Only then can you move forward.
You care so much about me,
but the first thing you did when you knew who I was was try to drown?
How horrified must you have been to do that?
No. That was...
I thought getting out of your life was the only thing I could do for you.
I'm sorry. I won't do it again.
I won't do anything to hurt you like that.
I'm sorry.
Do you know...
how hard I tried so no one would say...
I was a certain way because I was an orphan?
I never learned how to cry or get angry.
I lived at a diner since I was five.
I ran away at 13,
and walked on eggshells at the orphanage.
All I learned...
was to suck it up.
And how to smile when I was taunted.
Go Eun.
But...
But you said to me what hurt me the most.
Yes. I grew up with no parents...
No, don't say that. It's my fault.
I'm so sorry, Go Eun.
Mom's sorry.
Even if I weren't your daughter,
you shouldn't have said things like that.
If you wanted to apologize,
you should've done so before you knew who I was.
Do you know...
how badly my dad wanted to find you for me?
Do you know how I felt when I went to the Namsan Cafe?
Do you know how hesitant I was?
I'm sorry.
Back then, I didn't remember anything.
If I'd known it were you and your dad...
I'm sorry.
Even if you had no memory,
if someone practically begged to meet you,
you should've shown up to hear them out.
I'm sorry, Go Eun.
Mom's so sorry.
Madam.
Madam. Wake up.
Madam!
(The Third Marriage)
You call yourself a chef,
but you can't tell the difference between Madam Yoon's and your soy sauce?
Stay out of my sight.
How much longer could I possibly live?
While I'm alive,
I'd like to see you spend time with your mom with smiles on your faces.
Don't ever turn your back on me again.
Don't let me see you turn and walk away from me again.
