(Episode 94)
Oh, my goodness.
Oh, my.
Eun Hyuk.
Yes. Hi, Mom.
What...
What are you doing here...
Who is this young lady?
Hello.
Right.
Hello to you too.
But what were you doing with my son?
Mom. Why are you being like this?
Ha Young, you should go inside.
Where are you going?
Excuse me.
Can we talk for a minute?
Over there. Come this way.
What should I do?
I'm here, so don't worry.
Aren't you coming?
Eun Hyuk?
Yes, we're coming in.
Hey, Eun Hyuk.
(Haha Chicken)
Who is this young lady?
Right...
This is my girlfriend.
Girlfriend?
You had a girlfriend?
This is so sudden...
If you were bringing your girlfriend, you should've told us.
Well...
It just happened that way.
Right. I saw them outside,
so I told them to come in.
Oh, is that so?
Come. Have a seat.
- Right. - Okay.
Please.
Hello.
I'm Shin Ha Young.
Right. Welcome.
It's a bit unexpected, but it's nice to meet you.
Well... How long have you been dating?
How much do you like each other...
that you'd do that in front of a restaurant where people pass by?
Well... Mom.
Why? Did something happen in front of the restaurant?
Well...
But...
you look familiar.
I feel like I've seen you before.
Oh, well...
Her family runs the cafe across the street.
Ha Young...
is Mr. Shin's daughter.
What? Mr. Shin from across the street?
Wait, the man who has had numerous divorces...
and frequents dance classes and dance clubs?
Oh, my.
She's really Mr. Shin's daughter.
Mom!
Honey!
Gosh...
Oh, dear. I'm sorry.
That just slipped out of my mouth. How silly of me.
I was just so surprised.
By the way,
how long have you been dating?
You were right under our noses.
Were we the only ones not to know?
No, it hasn't been that long...
since we started dating.
We've known each other for a while, but we only recently got close.
That's true.
I met Detective Yoo for work,
and we found out we were neighbors much later.
- I see. - I see.
Is that so?
(Haha Chicken, Good Day for Coffee)
What should I do?
I don't think your mom likes me.
That's not true. She was just surprised. That's all.
She saw something that left quite an impression.
On top of that,
you're Mr. Shin's daughter.
I guess it was shocking to her that I was his daughter.
It's because she couldn't connect...
you and your father together.
You guys are quite different.
What should I do?
What if your parents are against our relationship?
Why would you say that? They won't.
Why would they be against you?
If anything, they'll welcome you.
You're pretty, kind, and competent.
Isn't that surprising?
How could Mr. Shin have a daughter like her?
Of course, I heard that his daughter was normal.
I know.
She's very different.
How could we have imagined him having a daughter like her?
Was her mom pretty?
If her mom wasn't beautiful,
they couldn't have a daughter like her.
I know.
If you were to dominate over his genes...
and have a daughter like her,
her mother must have been incredibly beautiful.
She works at a film company, right? Cheong Film?
Yes.
Then Eun Sung must know her too.
I'm sure since they worked at the same company.
Then we should ask Eun Sung...
what kind of person she is, what her personality is like,
and what people at work say about her.
Why?
Do you like her?
It seems like you're curious.
Of course.
She's the first woman our son brought home.
Of course, I'm curious.
They seem completely in love with each other.
Gosh. How would you know if they're completely in love?
I'm sure they like each other because they're dating.
Goodness. I know something.
Something you didn't see that I very clearly witnessed.
Where's Ga Ram?
He's sleeping.
He must've had a hard day.
He fell asleep as soon as he went to bed.
Okay, Hye Yoon. Let's hear what you have to say.
What were you doing for you to show up now?
I already told Min Guk,
but after my father's company in Vietnam went under six years ago,
my family's situation got really bad.
My family had to go separate ways,
and we were being chased by creditors.
So?
It was shortly after I had Ga Ram.
I found out my mom collapsed from the shock,
and I couldn't reach my dad or my younger sibling.
I had no choice but to go back...
to take care of my mom.
Then you should've told us about your situation.
Why didn't you say anything?
I went through with the pregnancy on my own,
and I had him by myself.
I didn't want to be a burden on Min Guk.
I didn't think...
I could raise Ga Ram...
on top of taking care of my mom...
in a foreign country while being chased by creditors.
My gosh. How old are you?
How frustrating. My gosh.
Even still,
you could've called us at least once.
At least once in the past six years!
Mom.
I'm sorry.
I was consumed with just trying to survive.
I was overwhelmed trying to resolve the issues that came up daily.
I kept pushing everything back.
I kept telling myself,
"I'll call today. I'll call tomorrow."
But it wasn't easy for me to tell people about my situation.
I lived every day as though I was being chased.
So?
Why show up now?
You abandoned your son...
because your life got too difficult.
So why did you show up now?
Mom, please don't yell.
He's right.
I understand how you feel,
but let's hear her out.
Although...
I wasn't a mother to him,
I never once forgot about Ga Ram.
My life was so messed up,
so I did leave him for your family to raise.
What? Are you being serious right now?
Ask anyone you come across...
and see if they believe in anything you're saying right now.
See if they believe you!
It's true, Mother.
Please believe me.
Mom.
Gosh, I can't believe this.
Why did you invite Ji Yeon to the house so suddenly?
You didn't even tell me.
What if I told you?
Would you have had dinner with us?
I told you I had plans with someone.
I know.
I invited her over, so people who had time could chat.
But I heard Ji Yeon...
was the managing director of Big Legacy.
I guess that means you guys will keep seeing each other.
Yes, since Big Legacy invested in my movie.
We already met at the office twice.
Really? Twice?
I bet it's nice to work with someone from your childhood.
I'm sure it's easier to talk to each other.
I bet she'll understand your perspective too.
I'm not sure.
She's good at separating work from her private life,
so I don't think she'll compromise for work.
Makes sense. That must be why she became a managing director.
By the way, Ji Yeon...
is a lot prettier now than when she was a kid.
But when I think about it, she had nice features,
so she was cute.
Ji Yeon was popular among our friends.
I'm sure she's still just as popular.
Do you think so too?
But as it turns out,
she's not dating anyone.
Oh, I see.
I think...
you and her would be...
No.
Never mind.
Let's talk about Ji Yeon later.
I'll go upstairs then.
I came down just as I was about to call the casting director.
My gosh. He's so dense.
I told him a nice woman isn't seeing anyone,
and he says, "I see?"
You'd think he was made of stone.
Did you take Hye Yoon home?
Yes. Her friend lives close by.
It's been a while since she came back to Korea,
but how could she stay with a friend and not her family?
So?
What will you do with Hye Yoon?
I will have to give it careful consideration.
But if Ga Ram accepts Hye Yoon as his mom,
we should live together.
You're right.
It makes sense to live with the mother of your child.
Ga Ram and his mom and dad.
Did you talk to Sun Woo?
Yes, but...
he's not interested.
I told him Ji Yeon wasn't seeing anyone,
but he had no reaction.
It hasn't been long since he broke up with Yoo Eun Sung.
If he shows interest in Ji Yeon right away,
that would be weird.
Gosh, don't you know what things are like in this day and age?
Who stays hung up on ex-girlfriends?
There are many people...
who start new relationships the day after they break up.
Why is he being so plaintive?
Regardless, since we know Ji Yeon is interested in him,
if she makes the first move,
I'm sure Sun Woo will open up.
I see. Do you think?
Of course.
There's a saying that men are moved by what women do.
If you're single and a charming woman approaches you,
there's no man who could say no to her.
Makes sense. Men aren't that complicated.
On top of that, Ji Yeon is so amiable,
and she's sensible too.
So...
don't get impatient and rush into things.
All you and I need to do is try to set up events...
so that Sun Woo and Ji Yeon can see each other often.
Okay.
Based on her background and her family,
there's no better match for Sun Woo.
Eun Sung, do you know someone named Shin Ha Young at Cheong Film?
What? Ms. Shin, my manager?
Wait, that young lady, Shin Ha Young, was your manager?
Yes. How do you know her?
How else would I know her?
She's your brother's girlfriend.
What? Oh, I see.
What? "Oh, I see?"
Wait.
Did you already know...
that your brother was dating a producer of Cheong Film...
and that the young lady was Mr. Shin's daughter?
Yes. I didn't know from the beginning,
but I found out later.
What? Eun Hyuk is dating Mr. Shin's daughter?
So that means she's Min Guk's aunt?
Why are you so surprised?
I mean it is surprising, but not that surprising.
When did that happen?
When did you start dating his aunt?
Gosh, it just happened.
Because Ha Young is so pretty...
and charming.
Your dad and I...
haven't given our blessing yet.
She still has to be vetted by Eun Sung.
What? Me?
Right, Eun Sung. How is this young lady Shin Ha Young?
Is she a good match for your brother? Does she pass?
Why are you asking me such a difficult question?
Hey!
Why?
Don't you like her?
No, it's not like that.
I guess she doesn't know yet.
She wants to reserve her judgment. Right, Eun Sung?
We understand,
so let's give your relationship a little more thought.
Relationships aren't that easy
Why are you saying that all of a sudden, Eun A?
They were just about to give us their blessing.
Eun Sung can't bring herself to say anything.
I'm just saying we should push it back a little.
What? Me?
Why are you the one suggesting we push anything back?
Gosh.
When did Eun Hyuk start dating Min Guk's aunt?
I'm flabbergasted that Ga Ram's mom showed up out of nowhere,
but how could two siblings like an aunt and her nephew...
at the same time?
Ga Ram,
did you meet your mom yesterday?
Yes.
How was she?
I didn't get to see her.
Well...
I'm not sure.
She was just a mom.
But she was pretty.
She was really pretty.
A lot prettier than her photo.
The photo you have is her, right?
The one in the book.
Yes, that's right.
She's prettier than in the photo.
I think I know why you like her.
Thank you, my son.
Can I see her again?
Why?
Do you want to see her again?
She's not going anywhere again without me. Right?
Of course not. Where would she go?
He must be so anxious.
I don't blame him.
He wouldn't be like this if it was only a couple of days.
It's been six years.
Mom.
I guess you liked your mom. Am I right?
Yes.
She was crying...
as she told me she missed me.
When I saw that,
I teared up too.
I see.
I hope my mom doesn't go anywhere ever again.
I would like her to stay by my side like right now.
So that Dad won't be sad anymore,
and we can see her whenever we want.
Are you going to see Hye Yoon today?
No, she didn't mention anything. Why?
She came back after taking care of her complicated situation. Right?
She's not up to something again, is she?
"Up to something?"
Do you think...
she'll disappear again like she did six years ago?
No way. Why would she come back if that was her plan?
She wouldn't have bothered.
It's because I'm so nervous.
Ga Ram said he wanted his mom to stay by his side,
but I'm scared he'd get hurt again.
Hye Yoon is a mom too.
It's true she abandoned us for the past six years,
but she had her reasons.
She won't do that again.
You should look into her more carefully.
Don't sit by like and do nothing and get stabbed in the back again.
Okay. Don't worry.
I won't lose Hye Yoon again for Ga Ram's sake.
About Ms. Yoo. I think we need to get her back.
Is it because of what Big Legacy wants?
That's one reason,
but it's the right thing to do for the sake of our company.
For the sake of our movie too.
Is it because of Eun Sung's videos on social media?
Did you see them too? Ms. Yoo's videos of kind acts?
Yes,
since it's something a lot of people have taken an interest in.
I saw them too.
It seems that what started as an opinion piece for her to return...
has now spread into social media.
Public interest...
can be really scary but also very powerful.
How did people find...
all the good deeds that Ms. Yoo has done?
Thank you.
Enjoy. We're from Cheong Film.
The movie theater over there is playing movies.
- So... - Come watch a movie. Thank you.
these are all good deeds that Eun Sung did?
Although Eun Sung didn't do everything out of self-sacrifice,
it's true...
that she was the victim of the audition controversy.
So it seems people are rallying to say they can't lose...
someone like her.
Right.
Eun Sung's actions...
weren't for her sake but for the sake of others.
Even the comments say that.
It's out of control.
You've become a star on social media.
Really? Did I become that famous?
Be honest. Since people are doing this,
don't you want to go back to "Hidden Memory?"
Don't you want to practice again and shoot the movie?
I'm not sure.
I'd be lying if I said I wasn't still attached.
But what can't be, just can't be.
Why can't it be?
Because you broke up with my brother?
Or is it because you said you were quitting on a livestream?
That was back when people had a misunderstanding.
Now everything has been cleared up, people are rooting for you.
Why are you the only one who's standing your ground?
I gave it a lot of thought before making my decision,
so it's not easy to go back on that.
Even if you gave it a lot of thought,
couldn't your mind change if you thought about it some more?
I respect your decision,
but my opinion is no different than the others.
Ms. Shin.
Why did you call me?
I'll get straight to the point.
Ms. Yoo.
Please return to "Hidden Memory."
Pardon? What do you mean by that all of a sudden?
I'm not here to persuade you for emotional reasons.
I'm here as a producer for the film company...
because our investor wants you back in the movie.
The investor wants me back?
Yes.
The investor feels uncomfortable...
going against public opinion and casting a new actress.
Because it could cause adverse results.
I see. I didn't think about that.
This might be your last chance to come back.
This moment, when the public is supporting you.
More importantly,
Director Kang's movie really needs you right now.
So? If your friend goes back to the movie,
will she get back with Sun Woo?
They won't get back together.
Mom is totally against them.
She's totally menacing.
Your mom can be like that.
She says she doesn't care about background,
but it's very important to her.
That's why I'm worried.
If I say I like Mr. Shin, how will she react?
I'm not sure.
I don't think you need to worry about that.
As long as Ga Ram's mom is back,
I would say it's game over for you.
You said there was always a possibility.
You said we could have a chance to turn the tables.
I only said that because I didn't want you...
to be too disappointed.
Everyone has a chance to win the lottery.
It's just that it's impossible.
Aunt Jung Sook. I'm not going to have lunch with you anymore.
I'll make sure you're lonely.
(Members of the lab, Su Hyeok, Dong Hoon, Sang Min)
I passed.
I got cast for the role of Ye Won.
More importantly,
Director Kang's movie really needs you right now.
Hello, Ms. Shin.
I met with Ms. Yoo.
I told her what the company wanted,
and she said she'd think about it.
It's up to Ms. Yoo to make the final decision.
Okay. Thank you.
Director Kang.
Did you okay Ms. Yoo's return...
simply because of the investor's demand...
and the position of the company?
Since this was a difficult decision to make,
I want it to be meaningful.
The truth will be revealed to the world in time.
The truth will be revealed...
(Cheong Film)
(Yoo Eun Sung)
("To Become A True Actor")
It's been a while, Eun Hyuk.
I know.
Why did you call me at this hour?
Oh, right.
There are some things that Eun Sung left at the office.
I wanted to give them to you.
Did you leave it in your car?
Yes, I did.
I see.
This is awkward. Isn't it?
Is it because of Eun Sung?
I can't say that it's not.
I think I'm Eun Sung's brother...
more than I'm yours.
Right.
That's how it should be.
That's why I'm relieved.
Why did you want to grab a drink together?
It's because I know you're upset.
If you have some fishcake soup and soju,
you'll feel better.
Why am I upset?
It's all over social media...
that you should go back to the movie.
I can only imagine how you feel after seeing that.
You had to let go of an opportunity you got...
for something you really wanted.
Look at you.
Why are you acting like you're okay?
Let's go.
We could've been really close,
but I feel like things fell apart.
I'm disappointed that things ended up like this too.
Ma'am, can we have some soju and a rolled omelet...
Okay.
Eun Hyuk.
Sun Woo.
Eun A.
Eun Sung.
Why are you guys...
Eun Sung.
Did you say something to Min Guk...
- about Hye Yoon? - What is this?
You. What did you say to my sister?
You ended up meeting again like this.
Come back and just film the movie.
Just as a director and actress.
Who would want to play a part that another actress was chosen for?
I'm thinking...
about getting married to Ha Young.
