Eun Sung.
There's a follow-up article, covering the controversy...
about the fairness of the audition process.
The article says Han blew the whistle,
confirming the fairness of the audition process...
and a fellow actress defamed you.
Hey. Let me read that too.
Here.
You're right.
The one who reported you, Yang,
wanted to take your role, Eun Sung.
He said that she had done this with malicious intent.
Goodness. Is that true?
- Yes. - Then that girl, Yang,
wanted to take Eun Sung's role.
Is that why she took a picture of you and Sun Woo together?
Yes. Nothing can stop her from going after...
what she wants.
But "Han" blew the whistle?
Han Si Heon was the one who exposed her?
Yes.
This guy, "Han," is Han Si Heon?
Your ex-boyfriend?
What? Oh, yes.
But I wonder why he helped me clear my name like this.
I don't know what made him want to help you.
But shouldn't we go and teach this girl a lesson?
She tried to drive Eun Sung's career into the gutter.
Right. In the end, you had to drop out of the movie.
We can't let her get away with this.
Hey, Detective.
Shouldn't you do something? Your sister was framed.
Well, of course. I'll be happy to.
But my involvement might be redundant.
What do you mean?
Are you implying that...
we can still punish her without your help?
Well, probably.
"Controversy About Fairness of Audition Process..."
"Turns out to Be Act of Defamation by Fellow Actress."
"Casting Controversy of 'Hidden Memory' Is..."
"Result of Competition for Roles."
There are so many articles.
Gosh. What on earth happened overnight?
I had no idea Yang Ju Ri had done something so awful.
Then Han Si Heon exposed Yang Ju Ri.
This is indeed the biggest tsunami we've faced, isn't it?
After the controversy article got published,
the public sentiment was so hostile in a matter of a few days.
Then it subsided with Eun Sung's livestream.
Now, with a follow-up article like this one,
the public sentiment is favorable toward us.
"I feel bad for Yoo Eun Sung."
"This is so not fair for her."
"Bring her back."
People are urging us to cast her back.
Mr. Han's parting gift for us was indeed useful.
He's giving himself a reason to leave the project with Ms. Yang.
Right.
He may not be the most imprudent guy.
But he wasn't completely unreasonable...
once I explained the future he would face in the near future.
What? So you fell for Kang Sun Woo's trick?
I didn't fall for anything.
I made the decision myself.
On the day of the audition,
you even locked up Eun Sung.
That's a crime.
You could get locked up for what you did.
So...
you got scared,
met up with a reporter, and exposed me?
You still haven't come to your senses.
Hey. Did you honestly think...
Cheong Film would let you off the hook after knowing everything?
He said they were going to utilize their legal team and PR team...
to ruin our careers.
They were going to make sure you regretted what you did.
Then you should have told me that first!
You're the one who messed it up. Look what you've done to me!
Why would I tell you that first?
I didn't do anything wrong.
I got mixed up in all of this because of you.
That alone is making me furious.
What?
You're furious?
Hey.
Nothing has gone well...
ever since I started dating you.
Even now,
I'm clumped up with you,
so I'm about to be doomed alongside you.
Hey, Han Si Heon.
Why would I be doomed?
You.
Don't you know who my father is?
Oh, your daddy?
Sure, your daddy.
What does your dad have to do with me?
Han Si Heon!
Do me a favor, and read the articles.
Read what people are saying about you and me.
Your career and my career are over.
We'll never have an acting career ever again.
(Good Day for Coffee)
I knew those two would face a horrible end.
Han Si Heon and Yang Ju Ri got what they deserved.
Given the public sentiment,
they will never be able to have an acting career again.
For an actor, not only acting abilities...
but also the public image is important, you know.
That's why I think they got what they deserved.
I mean, it's not like I can write a post...
to reveal their true colors...
whenever they appear in a TV show or a movie.
So, do you feel better...
now that you've seen them become miserable?
Since the truth has been unveiled as it had to,
I'm happy about that.
But it doesn't feel as great as I thought it would.
Why? I'd be dancing with joy and uploading a post if I were you.
Are you worried about something?
You don't look so happy.
They have issues with three actors in Director Kang's movie now.
That basically made the audition pointless.
Are you worried about Sun Woo's film in this situation?
No, it's not that I'm worried about Director Kang.
I worked on the production team for a while.
And even though we didn't start shooting it,
I practiced my scenes a lot.
Then are you going to get back with my brother?
You didn't break up with him...
only because your parents and mine were on bad terms.
The articles about the controversy were the decisive reason.
That's why you appeared on the live broadcast.
No.
It doesn't matter that I've been cleared of suspicion.
Director Kang and I are over.
But aside from the articles,
nothing has changed.
Then why are you so adamant?
Did something happen?
You've changed so much.
Yoo Eun Sung won't try...
to get back with Sun Woo just because of this article, right?
(CEO Kang Ki Seok)
That doesn't change the fact...
that Yoo Dong Gu and Ko Chun Young had an affair.
How can she get back with Sun Woo?
If so, I'd be relieved.
But Sun Woo won't just let her go.
One of the reasons why they can't be together is gone now.
No matter how hard he tries,
he won't be able to change her mind if she rejects him.
As long as Yoo Eun Sung stays firm,
there will be no problem.
Is that so?
Then should I call her over...
and make her promise again?
As long as Min Guk has feelings for Ga Ram's mom,
there's no room for anyone else.
You heartless wench.
Where on earth are you hiding?
Mom, I'm going to the cafe. Do you need anything...
Mom, did you not throw out Hye Yoon's photo?
Give me back the photo.
I said, give me that. It's not yours.
Fine. Go ahead and act all pitiful while looking at this photo...
just as you used to. Happy now?
I heard you had rejected both the show host and the part-timer...
when they told you that they liked you.
You said you were waiting for Ga Ram's mom...
because you're Ga Ram's dad.
Mom, why are you being like this again?
Why would you repeat the same thing every once in a while?
Hye Yoon is the only one for me. In my heart...
You crazy brat!
Did Hye Yoon say that you were the only one for her?
- That no one else was in her heart? - Mom.
You've been acting so foolish for more than just a few days.
You've been an idiot for more than just a few years.
What is wrong with you that you can't let her go?
What is your problem? Why are you so dumb?
If we continue this conversation, we'll only make each other upset.
So I'll leave now. But just one thing.
Even if you see Hye Yoon's photo again,
please don't touch it.
Good grief.
Gosh, that fool.
My only child causes me so much grief.
Hye Yoon. Seriously, where are you?
I'm getting tired.
Jung Hye Yoon?
I think there's something fishy about her.
Min Guk liked her throughout his college years,
but she ignored him.
Then why did she suddenly come to Min Guk,
drink with him, and get pregnant?
From what I heard, she was very upset about something.
She happened to come to our cafe and saw Min Guk.
I guess they drank so much...
that they went all the way and she got pregnant overnight.
Mr. Shin can't handle much alcohol.
Could she have kidnapped him?
I don't think that's the case because Min Guk liked her.
But why didn't she let him know...
when she found out about her pregnancy?
And why did she give birth without him around?
Since she got pregnant while drunk,
she didn't want to tell him to take care of her and the baby.
So she decided to raise him all by herself.
But then, she suddenly fell into a situation...
where she couldn't look after the kid.
A situation? What kind?
Well... I don't know that.
Anyway, she asked Min Guk to live with her and the child...
since she had his baby.
She promised to come back and marry him...
when she sorted out complicated matters.
What are the complicated matters?
Gosh. I must say, she's one weird woman.
Where does she live?
Where do her family members live?
I don't know. Everyone in her family lives overseas,
so there's no one she's close to in Korea, as far as I heard.
My, she's such a mysterious woman.
Why would she have so much to hide about her past and circumstances?
Even the seven mysteries wouldn't be as mysterious as her.
- Gosh. - Goodness.
Ms. Yang and Mr. Han are going through the resignation process.
They will send their statements to the media...
and make their resignation official.
On top of that,
they must be held responsible for breaching the terms of the contract.
Ms. Yang's raising the suspicion...
tarnished the public image of our movie...
and negatively affected the production.
Well...
You know many people say Ms. Yoo should be hired back, right?
Oh, that. Yes.
What are your thoughts on that?
If an actress had to step down against her will...
because someone else defamed her,
I think hiring her back would be a good solution.
We need to ponder that matter for a little longer.
Our opinions matter too.
But what matters the most is what Ms. Yoo wants to do.
I agree. She's the one who suffered the most because of the controversy.
Then I'll let Ms. Yoo know about the current situation...
and where the company stands.
Yang Ju Ri and Han Si Heon will apologize to me?
Yes.
Both of them will quit the movie...
and apologize to you in person.
Whatever people may say,
you're the one who suffered the most because of the controversy.
Oh, I see.
Thank you for taking care of everything so thoroughly.
But did you ask me to see you to tell me this?
Well... No.
Actually...
I have something to tell you in private.
I...
would like to apologize to you too.
Pardon?
For what?
I, too,
gave you such hard times...
because of my desire for Director Kang.
And I can't deny that I mistreated you...
by using my title as manager.
Ms. Shin.
This whole experience...
made me realize I wasn't so different from them.
To get what I wanted,
I hurt others' feelings...
and did the wrong things without even hesitating.
Before I said anything to Mr. Han and Ms. Yang,
I had to apologize to you. That's what I realized.
I'm sorry...
for all the wrong things I did to you.
I sincerely apologize.
Also,
I...
gave up on Director Kang once and for all.
I know it's a little too late.
But still, I thought I should tell you.
I see.
All of us...
are now...
going our separate ways to start anew.
As it was a hard decision to make,
I hope there will be no regrets.
I very much appreciate you apologizing to me first.
I'm surprised. You're going home so early?
Yes, I took half the day off.
My body aches since I worked several night shifts in a row.
Even the super strong Yoo Cha Sa gets tired?
That is so hard to believe.
Oh, right. Constable Lee said he had a pretty friend from school.
Do you want to go on a blind date?
A blind date? That's random. I'm good.
Why? Give it a chance.
He said she was very pretty and had a good personality.
I said no.
If you're so interested in her, you should meet her.
I guess you have a lot going on in your mind...
because your Cinderella said she had given up on her crush.
No, that's not the case. You're talking nonsense again.
Then why are you getting worked up? That makes you look more suspicious.
Well... That's because you keep talking nonsense.
Even I can hear what your heart says,
but I guess you can't hear it.
Try to listen carefully to what your heart tells you.
See if it says you want to go to her or not.
(Stationery Store)
Yong Jun, go for it.
Go for it.
Yes! Over there!
- Over there! Get it! - Can you stop?
It's not like I can smack you instead.
There!
Detective Park was right.
Yoo Eun Hyuk.
You want to go to Ha Young.
(Kindergarten, Academy)
I met with Eun Sung.
I'm in the neighborhood. I'll get off work now.
The reporters have been pestering me,
so I'm a bit tired.
Can you mark it as a personal day?
Okay.
Go for it.
- You're so sweet. - Yes.
- Hey. - Go for it.
Yong Jun, go for it.
- Let's go. - Okay.
Detective Yoo.
Ha Young.
(Stationery Store)
What are you doing here at this hour?
Are you already off work?
Yes. I got off work a little early today.
What about you?
Me too.
I just met up with someone and am on my way home now.
I see.
I'll head home now.
Okay. Get home safely then.
- Ha Young. - Detective Yoo.
Do you want to...
How about a cup of tea?
(Haha Chicken)
Gosh. They are meeting often lately.
Hello.
- Hello. - Hi.
I see. The restaurant hasn't opened yet.
- I see. - Did you just finish...
your morning shift?
You must be tired from cleaning.
You know how it is.
Is Sun Ju inside?
She went out to have lunch.
I see. She went out to have lunch.
- Bye now. - Okay.
Whom did you meet? You even took a half-day off.
Can I ask you that?
Oh, that.
The woman Director Kang likes.
The woman Director Kang likes?
Don't look at me like that.
I didn't meet her to bully her today.
I met with her to apologize.
To apologize?
Yes. I wanted to apologize for mistreating her all this time.
I had hurt her and was mean to her...
while using my love as an excuse.
Really?
Did you really apologize to her?
Why? You can't believe it? Was it too sudden?
Gosh. Well...
You made me change little by little.
So I was able to apologize to her.
I made you change?
You told me...
I was warmhearted...
and kind...
when I was coldhearted...
and even when I wasn't kind at all.
Your words were comforting.
So I could be warmhearted and kind.
That's why I'm trying...
to be a bit kinder and a bit more warmhearted.
Did you want to see me?
Yes. I wanted to discuss with you about bringing Ms. Yoo back.
I see.
What do you think? Where do you stand on this matter?
As she was pushed out unfairly,
I believe she should join your team again.
I agree.
If she says yes, I would be happy to bring her back.
I can't find anyone who can replace Ms. Yoo either.
Then you need to get her to change her mind.
Tell her to come back.
But she already said she was dropping out of the project.
I'm not sure if she'll change her mind that easily.
That's why I need you to take care of this.
I don't know if you guys are taking...
some time apart like she said or not.
But this is work.
If you need her for your movie, you must bring her back.
As a producer, that's what I want too.
Okay. I'll try.
I'll meet with her and try to persuade her.
(Haha Chicken)
That might be Sun Woo. Why don't you check it?
Something might be up.
Right. You can at least check his messages.
Can we talk on the phone, Eun Sung?
I need to talk to you...
about the movie as a director.
(Director Kang Sun Woo)
Hello?
Eun Sung.
What's this about?
We decided never to see each other again.
I needed to discuss a matter with you about "Hidden Memory."
"Hidden Memory."
I have nothing to do with the movie now.
There's nothing I need to hear from you.
Eun Sung. This isn't about us.
This is an official matter between a director and an actress.
Even if it's an official matter, I don't want...
I didn't know you were such an irresponsible woman.
If you're serious about acting and truly love acting,
stop saying no. I'll meet you after work.
(Haha Chicken)
Come back to "Hidden Memory?"
Is that why you asked to see me?
Yes.
Mr. Kim and I both believe you should come back.
The audition process was conducted fairly.
No.
I will not go back.
I had already decided to leave your team...
when I did the livestream.
Eun Sung. Come on. Don't be like this.
You worked so hard to get the role.
All the misunderstandings have been cleared.
Why do you want to give up on everything?
Do you have to ask?
I do not plan on...
seeing you ever again.
I don't want to see you anymore.
Eun Sung.
You sound like a different person.
You know, I've made up my mind with determination.
So stop trying to change my mind.
Okay.
Then come back for the movie. It has nothing to do with me.
I'll stop clinging on to you.
Stop it, please!
I said...
I never wanted to see you again...
both in professional and personal capacities.
Eun Sung.
I didn't want your hard work to go to waste.
- Your dream... - Whether it's...
my hard work or my dream,
I'll deal with it. So mind your own business. Don't you ever...
call me again for stuff like this.
Eun Sung.
Let go.
Eun Sung. Why are you doing this to yourself?
Why are you giving up on the movie and your dream?
Director Kang, I'm sorry.
This is the only choice I have...
to protect my parents.
Let's see if there's anything I want to buy.
(A short padded jacket with drawstrings)
Gosh. I wonder who gave birth to her.
How beautiful she is.
Oh, my. She's got the figure and the looks.
Mom, how could you do that?
How could you tell Eun Sung what happened with Mom and Dad?
Come to think of it, she hasn't been calling me lately.
Is she still upset that...
just because I told her younger sister...
that her parents had an affair?
Why aren't you answering it?
I don't have to take this.
Is she avoiding my calls?
Or is she shooting her show?
Hello?
Hey, is it you, Eun A?
Yes. Why are you calling me?
What do you mean why?
I'm your mom. Must I call you...
only when I have something to say in particular?
I'm busy getting ready for work.
Eun A, because I told Yoo Eun Sung...
I mean, because I told your younger sister...
about what your parents did,
are you sulking with me?
Sulk with you? Who's sulky?
I'm not sulky. I'm angry.
Listen, Mom.
How could you tell Eun Sung that her parents had an affair?
I understand you wanted to separate her and Sun Woo, but...
What do you mean by all this?
Mom.
I asked what you meant by all that.
Gosh. Did she hear everything?
Mom, the thing is...
Eun A.
Whom are you talking to?
Mom, I'll explain everything, so...
Hey, Sim Jung Ae.
Why? What is it, Ko Chun Young?
What on earth did you tell Eun Sung...
What are you talking about?
I'll go to your house.
Let's meet.
Fine. Come to my house.
Mom!
Oh, no. What do I do?
Goodness. This is bad.
Sim Jung Ae!
Did you really tell Eun Sung...
that her dad and I had an affair?
Yes, I did. I mean, it's true...
that you two had an affair.
How could you tell my child such a thing...
I talked to your daughter over and over again,
but she refused to leave my son.
So I wanted to knock some sense into her...
What is wrong with you?
Sim Jung Ae, you...
are still the same person you used to be 30 years ago.
You haven't changed a bit.
Ko Chun Young, how dare you...
You...
Hey, Ko Chun Young! You homewrecker!
If you ever hurt my dear Eun Sung again,
I'll do more than slap your face.
How could you do such a thing to my daughter?
If you have something to say, say it to me.
Then there's nothing to worry about.
Now you two can think of each other and move forward.
If you like it that much,
I can stay by your side forever. I'll be glued to you.
Other than them telling her to end it with me,
I'm sure there was another reason.
