(Episode 25)
Here's the list of people who wish to donate to help Ms. Seol.
I'm sending exactly what I sent the chairwoman.
Joo Bum Seok, Joo Se Young, and Jung Hye Soo.
Hye Soo wants to donate?
Who does she think she is?
(Seol Yu Gyeong and Jung Hye Soo are a 99.99 percent match.)
If Hye Soo's results show she's a likely match,
Mom might realize she's her real daughter.
What if, on top of that, my results show I'm not a match?
She'll suspect I'm not her daughter.
Seol Yu Gyeong needs a kidney transplant?
Okay. Keep an eye on her.
I'd known her kidneys weren't in great health,
but she needs a transplant?
Here's the list of people who wish to donate.
Joo Bum Seok, Joo Se Young, and Jung Hye Soo.
Hye Soo.
You're incapable of hating or resenting, aren't you?
I took your daughter from you who means your life,
and foolish you are thinking of trying to save my life?
- You're mother's back home? - Yes.
Until a donor's found, she'll go on dialysis...
and resume her regular duties.
I doubt she can go back to normal.
She's a gravely ill patient.
When are you scheduled for a biopsy?
My appointment is in two hours.
- And Jung Hye Soo? - She's being tested right now.
Why come to see me when you should be at the hospital?
I'm concerned the result of the biopsy...
will expose an incredible secret only you and I know.
I need you to prevent it.
Is that all?
You know that's not all.
That Hye Soo is my mom's real daughter.
You knew all along.
That makes us accomplices in the same boat.
We're accomplices?
Your bravado comes purely out of ignorance.
Remember whom you're taunting.
Even if the fact that I'm not my mom's real child comes out,
I lose nothing more.
You lose Ji Ho.
No. It's the opposite.
What?
Do you think Ji Ho was alone when he moved Hye Soo's aunt's body?
Do you think I vanished after taking the video?
Did you believe Ji Ho's white lie?
How could I move a grown woman's body on my own?
I called Ji Ho to Yusimwon.
He comforted me and said he'd take the fall for you.
I wonder what he'll do this time.
If I were to reveal what you did,
would Ji Ho willingly go on to take the fall...
for what you did?
You wench.
What will you do?
That Hye Soo is my mom's real daughter and I'm the fake one.
Will you let that come out?
What do you want me to do?
I'll find a way to somehow avoid getting tested.
Even if Hye Soo's able to donate,
the truth cannot come out.
I must save your mom's life...
and cover up that Hye Soo's her real daughter?
Yes.
Did Ji Ho need Han Byeol to be accepted...
as the chairwoman's grandson?
She's my daughter.
You know better than anyone what Han Byeol means to me.
How could you...
She's not on my side anymore.
She's on yours, completely and utterly, as a mom.
The chairwoman wishes to discuss something with you about the results.
What about the results?
You just have to follow her decision.
Are you testing my conscience as a doctor?
She said that next year,
you qualify more than enough to become the hospital director.
- Hello. - Let's have lunch together.
I apologize. I have urgent business at Yusimwon.
Excuse me.
What...
I'm not leaving!
Get up this instant.
How dare you barge in here and cause a scene?
I know where I am. It's where the thief who stole my son lives!
How could you take the son I raised for over 30 years...
and just open me a medical appliance store?
I'm glad you brought it up.
Did I force your son who's in his 30s to move in?
He said he'd never abandon his mother, so I said fine, so be it.
But then he walked in here with his kid, my great-granddaughter.
He's the one who decided to be a Yoo, not a Kang.
So don't you complain!
I did all the hard work raising him and then you took him away.
Are you happy now?
Your great-granddaughter?
My gosh. So you took Han Byeol away from Hye Soo too?
She lost her aunt and her daughter.
She must spend every day in tears.
If you're that worried about her, go and cry with her.
I'm more upset about losing my son than I am about losing a lover!
Mom.
- What are you doing here? - My dear son.
How could you? You rarely call.
You lost some weight.
Is your grandma harassing you?
What's that? You brought a bag of clothes? What were you thinking?
I'll live here with you.
- What? - I'll stay here with you.
What?
What? Grandma!
My little puppy dog!
You sweet thing.
You look adorable.
Mom. I'm really sorry.
But...
this is the only way I can make sure...
you remain my mom.
Is it ready?
Okay.
(Cheonha Hospital)
Se Young. A motorcycle ran into you?
It's not bad.
How is this not bad? Were you hurt anywhere else?
I'm fine otherwise. I got checked up.
Se Young.
I'm fine.
How come you ended up in the hospital too?
I meant to get the biopsy today but this happened.
What if I can't give my kidney to Mom?
- Se Young. - Mom.
Were you badly hurt? You should've been careful.
What happened? Do you know how worried I was?
It must hurt so much.
I can't tell which of you is in a worse condition.
Don't worry too much. I'm fine.
It was a motorcycle accident. What about the rider?
Honey.
Okay.
Find him.
Go to the end of the earth, no, even to the fiery pits.
Yes, sir. Don't worry. I will find the guy.
Don't get hurt. It worries me so much.
Mom. I'm really sorry.
This was the only thing I could do.
I wish I were your real daughter.
I wish I were able to give you a kidney.
A motorcycle accident?
It was a hit-and-run.
A motorcycle accident?
I guess she managed to avoid getting a biopsy, then.
Okay, bye.
Was that about Se Young? She was in an accident?
The further you stay away from her, the better it will be from now on.
You go to bed now.
Okay. Goodnight.
- Mr. Ko. - Yes, ma'am.
Se Young's motorcycle accident.
It sounds like a setup.
Look into it quietly.
I just want to confirm the facts.
Yes, ma'am.
- You're drinking alone? - Oh, sorry.
Sit back down. I'll join you.
Okay, thank you.
- Kyung Won. - Yes?
I figured out who I like.
But our relationship is a bit weird.
Anyone would say it's wrong.
What do you mean?
My heart races because I'm infatuated,
but my head's against it.
You should go home too.
I'm your guardian and I'm here to guard you.
Don't look into my accident.
What do you mean?
You won't find the rider. I arranged it.
Se Young, you...
Yes. I put on a show.
You said you love your mom more than me.
And you staged an accident?
I got scared.
That we'd be a match.
What?
I talked to her doctor earlier.
I asked if the donor would have any lasting effects...
or if it could end with me becoming infertile.
What did the doctor say?
You're still young and healthy.
After a few days of treatment,
you should have no problem getting a biopsy done.
As a doctor, he would recommend I donate if possible,
but as the father of a woman who's about to marry, he wouldn't.
He said if I want to donate, I should do so after having a child.
Ji Ho, are you okay with having no more kids other than Han Byeol?
I want to have your child.
Wouldn't it be pretty?
Wouldn't it be smart, like you?
I want to have a boy.
Han Byeol's a girl.
Think of a baby boy looking up at you...
with puppy-dog eyes as dark as yours.
You can imagine Yusimwon too.
You and I, together with our son.
Doesn't it feel like you own the whole world?
Even if that were the case,
how could you stage an accident and scare your mother?
Were you always this terrifying?
I made the choice for you and that's how you respond?
How far will you go, Se Young?
How far can you go?
I love Mom and you both.
And I want a child that looks like you.
This was the only way to get it all.
I'm saying we'll put it off only until we have a child.
If Mom finds a donor before then, great.
If not, I'll get tested after we have a baby,
then give Mom a kidney if we're a match.
That'll take at least two years.
Mom will have to put up with dialysis for her daughter's happiness.
Couldn't a mom do that much?
It's hard on me too.
For you and Mom, the two people I love the most,
and for the child we'll have in the future,
I'm making a terribly hard choice.
Don't you get it?
I love her.
But this is hard to believe.
I can't believe it.
Ms. Joo's accident happened...
where the traffic cameras were broken.
It's as if the motorcycle rider knew it.
Cheonha's security team scoured around 100 cameras...
in the three closest spots.
This leather jacket...
and this motorcycle were spotted the most.
You want me to cause an accident?
- Se Young. - Kyung Won.
Just do as you're told.
Se Young. What if it goes wrong? What if you're badly hurt or...
You think I'll die?
Then I will.
I'd rather die trying to do something than do nothing at all.
Do you have feelings for her?
Hide your expressions. Like me.
Don't you work for Chairwoman Ma?
Do you work for Director Yoo?
Sometimes I'm not even sure whom I should serve.
They suspect me anyway, so I just do as my heart says.
What should I do with you?
I'll do as I wish.
So the accident was staged,
but the rider was hired anonymously...
from a website with motorcyclist members?
Yes. He seems to have taken the money and left to China.
Joo Se Young.
Is she cunning or evil?
Se Young caused the accident on purpose?
Yes.
My daughter...
staged the whole thing to avoid getting tested?
I just confirmed it myself.
No. There's no way Se Young would do that.
Ms. Seol.
You can go.
- Are you all right? - Just go.
That can't be. Mi So wouldn't do that.
She wouldn't have done that to avoid...
giving me a kidney. That's nonsense.
(Cheonha Hospital)
Based on the results alone,
I have some good news and bad news.
Which do you want first?
I like happy endings. Start with the bad news.
We tested and compared your results,
and you are not a match.
What's the good news?
A woman in her 30s that's not your daughter wanted to donate.
Surprisingly enough, she turned out to be a suitable donor.
Who's that?
Hye Soo?
Hello, ma'am.
As Cheonha Group's chairwoman and the head of both families,
I called you as I can't ignore the issue of Managing Director Seol's health.
Did you catch the motorcyclist who hit Se Young and then fled?
Prosecutor Yoo has been on the case for days and nights,
but the motorcyclist can't be found.
The accident happened in a blind spot with no cameras...
Drug traffickers or addicts have been fleeing abroad after causing accidents...
under the influence.
I'm thinking this could be one of those instances.
Then he'll have left the country that day.
After scrapping the bike.
I'm sorry, sir.
Ji Ho, are you helping Se Young, or are you being duped?
What on earth are they talking about?
Should I go outside?
I can't hear a thing.
Did you find a donor?
Well...
We did but...
Who is it that you look so sour-faced?
It's Jung Hye Soo.
Hye Soo?
I'm a match with Ms. Seol?
Yes. You're both type B and have similar frames.
The biopsy shows you're a good match.
Even mother and daughter rarely show this close a match.
Does that mean I can give her a kidney?
We need KONOS, the government organization that's in charge...
to sign off on the legal issues.
What legal issues?
The most important issue...
is whether the donation is done in return for a favor or payment.
I can't ask her for a kidney.
Her life is tough as it is.
Many people would frown upon it.
My wife used to be her benefactor,
and now that Hye Soo is in a tough spot, she donates my wife a kidney.
Wouldn't people assume demands were made...
or money changed hands?
- It could be the opposite. - The opposite?
If we can prove Ms. Seol didn't approach Hye Soo and sponsor her...
with the prospect of receiving her kidney one day...
and instead...
their relationship's built on trust despite not being family...
It's too risky to leave to luck.
If they conclude it's reciprocal,
no one knows when the next donor will appear.
Anyone who knows both Ms. Seol and Hye Soo...
knows the pure nature of their relationship,
but if people get the wrong idea,
it would hurt Mr. Joo's chances of trying to be...
a public prosecutor general.
Then we can make her family.
Mr. Joo.
Are you suggesting you adopt her?
I am.
Hye Soo must become Seol Yu Gyeong's family...
in order to donate her kidney?
You must have a lot to think about. You can return home for now.
Ms. Seol.
Let's have more tea.
They say the heavens decide how long one lives.
I believe so as well.
What do you think was the best thing you ever did?
Having Mi So.
And getting Mi So back.
Nothing means more to a mom than her child.
We both lost one,
so we know exactly how horrible that feels.
Whenever I think of Min Sung...
What's your biggest regret?
Why are you talking to me like I'm about to die?
I'm not.
When you're my age,
you find yourself looking back and wondering...
what you did well and what you did poorly.
If I were to leave this world before...
getting to deal you a crippling blow,
that would be my greatest regret.
Yu Gyeong. Change your life around.
Legally, you're unwed.
I can't turn my back on my family.
Mi So!
No!
Do you think I don't know you tried to kill Mi So?
That's not all.
(Late Jung Ho Jin, Late Jung Mi So)
If you must leave, go far away.
Only then those remaining can go on.
To save your son Yoo Min Sung,
you killed my husband to marry me off to Joo Bum Seok.
Ma Hyun Duk, it's my turn now.
I'll return everything you gave me.
You'll pay a thousand times more.
I won't die until you do.
Or rather, I'll become a witch that returns from the dead...
because I'll never forgive you.
(Game of Witches)
Save my mom's life.
Legally adopting you is the best way to avoid the scrutiny that it's reciprocal.
Be my sister.
- Agree to the adoption. - Don't give commands.
You have no right to tell me what to do.
You said Ms. Seol was like a mother to you.
Shouldn't you save her life first?
Why didn't you tell me first?
For fear that it would bring you down.
Run away while you can, Hye Soo.
I made up my mind. I won't be your daughter.
I say no to the adoption.
