He said he would wait here.
Where is he?
Yes, Yu Jin. Did I do okay on TV?
I'll have a glass of beer with the director and the writer.
Okay, bye.
Jang Mi?
Jang Mi, it's you, isn't it?
Jang Mi.
I've been looking high and low for you.
But to meet like this? It's unbelievable.
I'm not sure what you're talking about.
You've got the wrong person.
Jang Mi.
It's me, Seo Tae Yang.
Don't you remember? Ten years ago, we...
I said you've got the wrong person.
Oh, Ae Ra!
Producer.
- Is it this way? - Yes.
- Do you like fried chicken? - Yes.
- The place we know is the bomb. - Jang Mi.
- Let's go, Ae Ra. - All right.
- How about some beer too? - I'm in.
- Tae Yang. What took you so long? - That sounds delicious.
- Right? - Did the show turn out okay?
Do you know her?
No. I don't, Uncle.
She was definitely Jang Mi.
Or did I really get the wrong person?
Oh, Ae Ra!
Producer.
No. Wasn't Jang Mi's real name Ae Ra?
Did she act like a stranger because of the people she was with?
Excuse me. I came to meet Joo Ae Ra.
"Joo Ae Ra?" Which department is she in?
Oh, I don't really know.
Please wait.
I'm afraid no one named Joo Ae Ra works for our company.
Are you sure?
But that can't be possible.
Can you look again?
How did Seo Tae Yang find me?
But if he had known where I worked,
he would've come to YJ Group, not the TV station.
What's more, he called me Jang Mi.
I'm sure bumping into each other was purely a coincidence.
Yes, a coincidence.
- Seriously. - My bad.
Ms. Joo. We watched the show.
You talked so smoothly.
I thought you were a professional broadcaster.
Did you watch it too, Se Rin?
Of course. I watched the premiere.
Ms. Joo. My friend told me...
the TV station wanted to cast you again.
Ms. Joo?
Yes? What did you say?
The TV station wants to cast you again.
How about it?
No, I'm good.
I don't think I'm suited for TV.
I'm aching all over because of the tension from yesterday.
Let me go get some medicine.
What is it? You must be afraid your fake credentials...
will be exposed.
Hi, Producer Han.
It's me, Joo Ae Ra.
Would you be able to take down yesterday's show?
Oh, yes. I'm getting calls from here and there.
It's getting in the way of my work.
Yes. I'll leave it to you.
I'm sorry. Bye.
It will be troublesome if Seo Tae Yang watches it.
I checked again, but Joo Ae Ra doesn't work here.
But she clearly knew the workers of this TV station.
So what's going on?
- So this is an overnight shoot? - Yes.
I can't even recall the last time I saw my kids.
Let's hurry up and go.
Come on. Get in the car.
Oh, Ae Ra!
She's over there.
Producer.
Wait. That man was with Jang Mi yesterday.
Excuse me!
Hey! Excuse me!
Director Nam and I are in love.
If I could, I'd like to get married to him.
Young Jun. Go on a date with her.
I bet you two will get along really well.
No, I'm good. I'm not interested.
By any chance, is there someone you like?
What?
Seriously? You have a girlfriend?
No, I don't.
Anyway, is that guy named Yu Jin treating you well?
Yes, extremely well.
That's why I'm hoping you will date too.
Then we can go on a double date, right?
Gyeo Ul.
You held those two really dear.
Because of how much pain...
you'll be in when you wake up...
and realize they got married,
I can't let those two...
get married.
Miss.
Is there a way I can know who is sponsoring...
Gyeo Ul?
We don't know about that, either.
Only the director knows.
I'll see you again next time.
- Yes, thank you. - Bye.
What? Wasn't she Oh Se Rin?
Why was she here?
- Director. - Oh, hello.
Aren't you Ms. Jung Gyeo Ul's guardian?
Yes, hello.
I would like to show some gratitude to Gyeo Ul's sponsors.
Could I know who they are?
I'm afraid that's not possible.
I'll thank them for you.
Okay. Then please let them know my family really appreciates it.
Sure thing. Well then.
- Thank you. - No problem.
Joo Ae Ra asked for the show to be taken down?
Right. Okay.
Do you think taking down that one show can hide your true nature?
The moment you went on TV,
you stepped right onto the stage I built for you.
(Y Group's female senior manager...)
(suspected of fabricating an academic background)
(YJ Group)
"Y Group's female senior manager..."
"suspected of fabricating an academic background?"
"She recently appeared on a TV show..."
"as a Washington University alumna."
"However, other Washington University alumni,"
"including myself,"
"have never seen her on campus?"
Is this talking about Ms. Joo?
I think so.
Oh, my goodness.
Did she really fabricate her diploma?
Se Rin. Don't you know anything about this?
I wouldn't know. After all, Ms. Joo and I attended school...
at different times.
Good morning, everyone.
What is it? What's with this atmosphere?
Wait. Were you talking badly about me?
Ms. Joo.
Well...
Ms. Joo, what's going on?
This is an absurd rumor.
Are you sure?
So you have never faked your credentials, correct?
No, Chairman Nam.
Even so, this rumor...
can affect the project you're working on,
so we must keep the record straight.
In that case, we can recheck Ae Ra's diploma.
She must have turned it in when she started here,
so I'll check with the HR.
I already did.
They didn't have your diploma.
What? Where did it go?
Didn't you turn it in when you started here?
Of course, I did. It was one of the requirements.
Chairman Nam, it's been a while since I started working here,
so the HR must have lost it.
Why isn't the HR doing their job right?
Everyone makes mistakes.
I'll have it reissued by my school.
I'll get it reissued...
and turn it into the HR.
(Office of the Chairman)
I pulled the fake diploma out as soon as I got the job here,
just in case they noticed that it was fake.
What do I do now?
Hello? It's me.
(Office of the Chairman)
It's been a while.
I meant that I got a good rest thanks to you.
Anyway, what brings you here this time?
I need a diploma from Washington University.
Making a fake diploma is a piece of cake.
I know an expert who does that.
If this is urgent, I can get it done today...
No, it can't be fake.
I need a real diploma.
A real diploma from Washington University.
A real diploma?
Yes.
The diploma is given under an English name,
so it's tough to confirm who it really belongs to.
So find me a real diploma from someone who has my last name.
Okay, I got it.
It's an emergency, so you get it as soon as possible.
(Staff Lounge)
Hello, you must be the senior manager of HR.
Yes, and you are Ms. Oh Se Rin, who recently became...
a member of the Planning Team.
Yes, you remembered me.
Of course. Ms. Joo told me lots of great things about you.
Really? She's such a great person.
Yes.
But she's now caught up in this absurd rumor.
I feel bad for her.
It must be disconcerting for you too.
Tell me about it.
Chairman Nam also wanted to see Ms. Joo's diploma,
but it was somehow gone.
He gave me a harsh talk about my careless management.
The diploma was gone?
Yes, and I don't understand why it suddenly disappeared.
Anyway, Ms. Joo said she'd turn it in again,
so I'll check once she gives it to me.
But even if she turned in her diploma once again,
people are going to go on and on about whether it's fake or real.
People like that only believe what they want to.
You're right about that.
Instead, the company should make an official request...
to Washington University for Ms. Joo's diploma.
We should make an official request instead?
Yes, so that no one will ever talk about this again.
That way, things will be much more relieving for you too.
Right, if we also find a photo of Ms. Joo's graduation ceremony,
that should stop everyone from spreading such rumors.
Yes, that sounds like a good plan.
Ms. Joo, right?
Yes, I knew it wouldn't be true.
Okay, then. Get back to work.
You should've checked your facts before you relayed that news.
All I did was tell you exactly what I saw on the internet.
What did she say?
Did she really graduate from Washington University?
Yes, she's a graduate.
People can be very mean.
They got jealous of her and wanted to belittle her...
because she was both pretty and talented.
Anyway, I never knew she graduated from Washington University.
That's a tough school to get into.
Right?
The more I get to know her, the more I like her.
She's a perfect match for Yu Jin.
Anyway, is it true that Ms. Joo and Director Nam are...
in that kind of relationship?
I'm telling you.
People even said they were about to get married.
Why are you sighing so deeply?
Is something troubling your mind?
No, I was just thinking about Gyeo Ul.
Ms. Yoon, hello.
Oh my, hello.
What brings you here, Mr. Nam?
I came because I missed Gyeo Ul.
You seem to be the only one who cares about her.
Please sit here.
Have you been well?
- Yes. - Please.
- Bring him something to drink. - Okay.
Young Soo, what happened after you went to meet your first love?
Don't even get me started on that.
Why not? Did something happen?
She came out to see me...
to sell an insurance plan.
- Insurance? - Yes.
She bombarded me with questions as soon as we met,
asking me if I was married, healthy, and what I did.
I got all excited, thinking she was into me.
But in the end, she pulled out the insurance plan application.
And?
You didn't, right?
I didn't have a choice.
She told me about her troubles and even began to cry.
So I reluctantly took out a plan.
You took out another insurance plan?
You already spend a fortune on your existing plans every month.
You're much more softhearted than you seem.
Come on. I'm still no match for Tae Yang's soft heart.
Right, what time did he come in last night?
I fell asleep a little after midnight,
but he wasn't home until then.
What has he been up to lately?
Is something going on?
Let's go.
You've all done well over the last two days.
Let's all go home and rest.
- Yes. - Yes.
- Good work. - Good work.
Excuse me.
Who are you?
Do you know Ms. Jang Mi... No, Ms. Joo Ae Ra?
Ms. Joo Ae Ra?
Who's Ms. Joo Ae Ra?
Right, Joo Ae Ra, the senior manager of YJ Group?
Ae Ra, don't mind that absurd post on the internet.
Everyone is jealous of you because you're such a big shot.
I don't care.
The truth will prevail anyway.
It's an unknown number.
Hello?
Is this Ms. Joo Ae Ra's phone?
Yes, I'm Joo Ae Ra. Who's calling?
It's me, Seo Tae Yang.
How did you get my number?
I met the guy who was with you at the TV station and asked him.
I always wanted to know how you were doing.
I'm glad to see that you're doing so well.
You may have wanted to know how I was doing,
but not me.
Instead,
I feel tormented whenever I see you because I'm reminded...
of my past.
I'm sorry.
Actually, I recently met the owner of the bar...
you used to work for.
And he told me...
that I wasn't the one who killed the manager there...
and that I'd been framed.
He told me...
that the hidden CCTV in that store had captured those scenes.
But that you disappeared with that footage.
Jang Mi. Where is that footage right now?
What are you talking about?
I quit my job that day.
So I found out about the incident between you and the manager...
a while later.
This is my first time hearing about that footage.
Are you sure?
The owner was certain you had taken it.
No. I didn't take the footage.
Then didn't Se Yeon come and see you, Jang Mi?
Who is this Se Yeon?
My sister.
She was looking for you, trying to clear up my false charges.
No. I never once met this person named Oh Se Yeon.
Only when I find the footage can I clear my name.
Are you done asking me questions now?
Then let me ask a favor.
I'm no longer living as Jang Mi.
I don't want you to come looking for me again.
What was that?
(Planning Team)
(Planning Team Senior Manager Joo Ae Ra)
Ae Ra. Did something happen?
You don't look so good.
It's nothing. I'm simply tired.
Here. The diploma you requested.
(Services: Confidentiality Guaranteed)
"Anna Joo?"
This person is a real Washington University alumna, yes?
Yes. I only do a proper job.
(Private Detective Agency)
Thank you.
(YJ Group)
Good morning, everyone.
- Good morning. - Good morning.
I'll be right back. I need to submit something to HR.
Is it your diploma?
That weird rumor only made things bothersome for you.
It isn't bothersome. This will clear up things about me.
I'll be back.
Joo Ae Ra. You must have somehow gotten your hands on a diploma.
But I doubt you know that HR asked the school for the graduation photo.
How unfortunate.
Ms. Joo. I'm sorry we lost your diploma.
Don't worry about it.
Here. It's my diploma.
"Anna Joo?"
It's my English name.
If you need anything else, please let me know.
- Keep up the good work. - Thanks.
Sir. Washington University just sent...
Ms. Joo's diploma and graduation photo to our e-mail.
Got it. I'll check it right now.
Let's see.
Good morning.
Hey, Se Rin. What brings you here?
I brought some coffee on my way to get my proof of employment.
- Here. - Gosh. Thanks.
Wait. "Washington University?"
That's from my university.
The requested diploma and graduation photo of Ms. Joo came in.
Is that so? Go ahead and check.
(Mail: This is the graduation certificate you requested.)
The diploma looks identical.
Next is the photo.
It's Ms. Joo.
How did this happen?
(Staff Lounge)
Thank you.
I almost forgot.
Your company requested that the university...
send your diploma via e-mail.
Did you know about it?
Really?
Well, I'm guessing the company is going to cross-check the diploma.
But even if they do,
it's useless since I'm submitting the diploma of a real alumna.
Here's the thing.
The company even requested a graduation photo.
What? "A graduation photo?"
Hold on. Then...
the real alumna's photo will be sent to them.
(Find It Detective Agency)
Now, I'll hack into HR's computer...
and install a phishing program.
And then?
After intercepting the e-mail sent by Washington University,
I'll send a mail disguised as Washington University...
to HR.
My academic background will not drag me down again.
Gosh, Ha Neul. You're doing a great job.
Is it someone's birthday today?
It's my older sister's memorial service.
In other words, she's Se Rin's mom.
What's a memorial service?
It's like a birthday celebrated in paradise.
Mom. I got the pears.
Okay. Thanks.
It looks fresh.
I didn't get the pears at the fruit shop yesterday.
They didn't look too good.
But you got excellent ones.
You even got mangos?
I recalled that Ms. Lee liked them.
Gosh. My sister loved mangos the most.
Thanks, Tae Yang.
Thanks to you too, Ms. Seo.
For holding her memorial service every year.
Don't thank me.
It's all thanks to her that my son and I can live like this.
Tae Yang, we need to get the plates from storage.
Okay. I'll go get them.
Where were those plates again?
It's Se Yeon's photo.
Se Yeon. How are you doing?
Why did you keep it from me?
You should've told me I got framed.
Wait. Why is this in here?
Does that mean Se Yeon knew that Ae Ra was Jang Mi...
and that she was working for YJ Group?
Then the two must have met.
Then didn't Se Yeon come and see you, Jang Mi?
No.
I never once met this person named Oh Se Yeon.
That's right. I clearly told Jang Mi she was my sister.
But she knew Se Yeon's full name.
Are you all free tonight?
I want to treat you to dinner.
Really?
If it's on you, I will never miss it.
Ms. Joo. I heard the rumor about your diploma fabrication cleared up.
These past few days must've been tough.
It wasn't a big deal.
After all, it was just a rumor.
Se Rin, will you come along?
I have to go home today to attend a memorial ceremony.
Is that so?
It would've been nice if you could come. What a shame.
Then maybe next time.
Okay. I hope you all have fun.
Let's go then.
- Okay. - Okay.
I don't know how you got away with this,
but don't be so thrilled.
I already have enough plans to destroy you.
Ms. Joo, can we really go somewhere we want to?
Of course.
Then we'll pick a luxurious and expensive place.
Sure.
Yeon Soo, I left something in the office.
You should go first.
Let's go together. We'll wait.
You should go ahead. I'll be right behind you.
- Okay. - Okay.
- See you soon. - Okay.
Yes, Uncle Young Soo.
Your mother's memorial ceremony is tonight.
Se Yeon isn't with us, but I'm glad you're here.
Me too. Anyway, I'll be there soon.
What was Joo Ae Ra's connection to Se Yeon?
Why is Mr. Seo here?
What? Do they know each other?
(Woman in a Veil)
Tae Yang, please stop visiting me.
I know there's a secret between Mr. Seo and Joo Ae Ra.
Where are you, Teacher?
I'll find your teacher, so please don't cry.
How can you do this to your friend?
I told you to stop!
Mom, I will make sure those two are punished.
