(Episode 51)
By the way, it's about Mom. She seemed a lot better.
But do look after her, just in case.
All right. Gyeo Ul, don't worry.
What did you just call her?
Was it Gyeo Ul?
Director Nam.
What brings you here at this hour, Yu Jin?
Grandpa sent me here.
Forget that.
Why did you address Se Rin as Gyeo Ul?
I became close with Mr. Jung's mother...
and promised to call her Mom.
So even Mr. Jung started to see me as his younger sister.
It was simply a slip of the tongue.
Yes, you're right. I'm sorry, Se Rin.
My mother-in-law. You're calling her Mom, Se Rin?
Yes. I visited the store run by Mr. Jung's mother.
That was how we became friends.
I heard she was distressed because of So Yi.
I got worried and came by.
Is that so?
Then I'll excuse myself first.
All right.
Here you go.
You could've just had this delivered.
Why did you come in person?
Grandpa was worried about you and asked me to drop by.
Gosh, I knew it.
You hadn't come by in ages.
I thought you had forgotten our address.
Mother.
I bumped into Se Rin just now.
Why is Se Rin calling you Mom?
"Mom?"
I said Gil Ja and Se Rin looked like mother and daughter...
during our dinner together.
That must be it.
Yes, she's right. Se Rin considers my mom her mom.
I see.
What? You're still here?
Hey, Young Jun.
Do you have feelings for Se Rin?
What?
What are you saying?
You've been hanging out with her these days...
and even asked her to bring fake So Yi's grandmother...
to our house.
So it seemed like it.
It's nothing like that.
But why are you suddenly asking about our relationship?
What?
It's just that Se Rin's such a great person.
If you're not seeing anyone, I can hook you up with someone as nice.
Are you sure that's the reason?
Well...
What else could it be?
It's strange coming from you, who's only interested in himself.
Leave if you're done talking.
Hey, Young Jun. How did it go?
Did anything happen with Nam Yu Jin?
No. He did ask Mom what her relationship was with you.
But that ended well.
That's a relief.
I was worried he might've noticed something.
No. He didn't notice a thing. Don't worry.
Got it. Get some rest now, Young Jun.
Hey, wait.
By any chance, did Nam Yu Jin...
Did he what?
It's nothing. Everything sailed smoothly.
Don't worry about a thing and rest.
I will, Young Jun. You should too.
It's me.
Let's set up a blind date for Hye In and Tae Yang.
Yes, okay. Then let me know once you set the date.
Bye.
Are you introducing someone to Tae Yang?
Yes. It's about time he met a nice lady and got married.
Of course, he should.
But about Tae Yang's background.
He has a tiny flaw.
Is the other party all right with it?
Yes. It's my friend's daughter.
She was the one who asked to set up the blind date.
It could be because she grew up knowing Tae Yang's nature.
She was okay with him, despite knowing the story.
Gosh. Tae Yang's nature is one of a kind.
I hope things work out for him.
Where does Young Soo work? Why won't he tell me?
I'll just find it out myself if he refuses to tell me.
It's already time for me to go to work.
I'm off.
Gosh.
Massaging your back vertically,
it does a fine job.
Take a look. See those? It comes up...
and massages your back really well.
This is his workplace?
He looks good even in his uniform.
Gosh, don't worry about a thing, and try it.
Do you have back pain?
Then try changing to our beds.
I looked into Seo Kyung Sook, So Yi's abductor.
She used to sell vegetables at a market in Sillim.
She sold vegetables?
Then won't we find something in that market?
I'm not sure.
It's already been 20 years. I doubt anyone will recognize her.
Even the police don't know about her whereabouts.
We should go there to find even the smallest lead.
All right. It's currently lunchtime, so why don't we go together?
Okay.
Chairman. Do you happen to know her?
She sold vegetables here about 20 years ago.
What? "20 years ago?"
It hasn't even been 20 years since I came here.
So I wouldn't know.
If you give me the photo,
I'll ask the merchants around here.
Thank you. Please help us out.
Sure.
How did it go?
Are you still looking for Seo Kyung Sook?
We must find her before the police. Or it'll be the end of us.
Yes, Mother. It's me.
Are you feeling better?
Worried about you, I don't get a wink of sleep these days.
What?
You haven't had anything to eat yet?
Oh, my. My stomach is demanding food.
Dad. When is Secretary Kim coming?
He said he was on his way from the restaurant.
He'll be here soon.
Yes. It must be Secretary Kim.
What?
Ms. Ju. Why did you come at this hour?
Ms. Cha's unwell.
And I thought you didn't have any proper meals.
So I bought some food for everyone.
We're all right. You should return.
Yes, Secretary Kim?
What? An accident?
Are you all right?
Yes. Come back after you settle things.
What is it, Dad? Did Secretary Kim get into an accident?
He got into a minor collision and will be late.
Won't it be too late if you wait for Secretary Kim to return?
Let me set up the table right now.
Thank you.
Thanks to you, we had a delicious meal.
I should have come earlier and prepared meals for you.
May I come by and do that...
until you find your next maid?
You're busy enough with work. There's no need to do that.
And from now on, please do not visit us at home anymore.
Our family will manage its own affairs.
Honorary Chairman.
When will you...
come to like me, Honorary Chairman?
Ms. Ju.
This is not a matter of my fondness for you.
You already know that.
I do.
However, you also know that...
Gyeo Ul probably won't wake up.
Ms. Ju.
I couldn't get over my feelings for him...
after I saw how troubled Director Nam was.
I'll also do my best for Gyeo Ul.
Then when she wakes up,
she may understand too.
So please,
let me be with Director Nam.
Ms. Ju.
It's not just Gyeo Ul. There's So Yi too.
Sorry?
There is all kinds of trouble with my family right now...
because of So Yi.
One day, when we find So Yi,
how will she feel when she sees...
you and him together?
I don't want to hurt So Yi in that way.
So Ms. Ju, please understand how I feel.
Hello?
What?
You may leave.
Why was he so startled by that phone call?
Where are you right now, Ms. Seo?
"Ms. Seo"?
No.
Honorary Chairman, I'd like to meet you...
and tell you in person who ordered me...
to take your granddaughter.
I'm now wanted by the police, so I can't go abroad either.
I'm not going to take the blame for everything.
I'll expose Ju Ae Ra...
and have my sentence reduced.
Ju Ae Ra, why are you here?
You got away like a sneaky rat...
and wanted to expose all my secrets to Honorary Chairman?
No, you can't.
Let go. Let go of me!
Yes, just in case,
drag her out through the back door where nobody is around.
Yes.
She said that she was already here.
Where did she go?
What? I need to stop watching Ms. Oh and Mr. Jung?
Yes, I asked Young Jun, and he said...
there was nothing going on between them.
Really?
But if you ask him like that, of course, he'll say no.
Why would he say, "Sure, yes?"
Hey, you don't know what he's like.
He's such an upright type, so he never lies.
Right, from what I've seen, he seemed to have...
a simple, honest, and manly personality.
Simple and honest?
He's inflexible and uptight.
Anyway, there's nothing going on between them,
so you can stop.
Okay.
(Business Support Team)
All I heard was that there's nothing going on...
between Mr. Jung and Ms. Oh.
So why am I so excited?
Ma'am, what are you doing?
Is the senior manager of Law Department here?
What does this concern?
He's not in the office, so you can tell me.
I've worked here for years.
How can he dismiss me overnight?
Right, it was you.
So why did you change your shift as you wished?
That's why you were fired.
It wasn't just me.
We switch our shifts around when things come up.
That's not right.
If you're going to switch your shifts around as you like,
why do we have rules, and why do we sign the contract?
I'll be careful from now on,
so please, show me mercy just this once.
Please, I ask of you.
It's already done, so I can't help you.
We did everything by law,
so please stop making a scene and leave.
If you won't, I'll call the police.
What? The police?
Oh no!
Mr. Jung! My goodness.
Oh no.
Are you all right, Mr. Jung?
Ma'am, I'm so sorry.
Everything was already decided by the higher-ups.
I don't think we can retract your dismissal.
Is there any way you can help me?
I beg you, please.
Instead,
please call this number.
What's this place?
They were looking for a cleaner, so I recommended you.
Not only do they have better terms,
but you'll be employed permanently,
so the working conditions are better.
You've worked hard for over ten years with us,
so I'm truly sorry it all came down to this.
Let me apologize instead.
Thank you.
Please.
Seo Kyung Sook still won't say where So Yi is?
No, she won't say anything before she's released.
Threaten her or drug her, I don't care.
Do whatever it takes to make her talk.
One day, when we find So Yi,
how will she feel when she sees...
you and him together?
I don't want to hurt So Yi in that way.
Once I find So Yi,
Nam Man Joong, that old man, will have to accept me.
Wait.
If he's opposing me because of So Yi,
then there won't be a problem if she disappears.
How am I going to make him believe that So Yi is dead?
Wait, the necklace.
Right, she's wearing a necklace with her name and number.
Someone might notice, so I'll take it off.
Okay, sure. I'll take the necklace.
Okay.
Where's that necklace?
(YJ Group)
This is it.
This is So Yi's necklace. Where did you find this?
I recently took over a plot of land,
and I found it in a deserted house there.
A deserted house?
What about So Yi? Was she there too?
No, I only found the necklace.
I just called you because I saw that number.
Where's that deserted house?
Father. If So Yi's necklace has been found,
it must mean she's near that area.
Then it's only a matter of time before we find her, right?
That's right. Yu Jin and the police...
are investigating the area around the deserted house.
He'll get in touch soon. Let's wait.
Dad. Is So Yi really coming back to us?
I really miss her.
But why hasn't Yu Jin called yet?
He's really testing my patience.
Look.
Yu Jin. What happened?
Has So Yi been found?
Don't tell me you couldn't find her.
She's been found.
Really?
Then where is she? You should've brought her with you.
You see...
Our So Yi...
is dead.
What do you mean by that?
How is So Yi dead?
Wasn't her necklace found?
The necklace was found in a deserted house.
But a few years ago, the homeless there started a fire...
to warm themselves up.
That caused a big fire accident and killed everyone.
There was a dead body belonging to a child back then.
That child...
was likely our So Yi.
Why was our So Yi there?
Didn't the maid take her?
I don't know.
No. That can't be true.
There's no evidence that the dead child is So Yi.
When the accident happened,
a DNA test must have been conducted to find out who it was, no?
Then we would've gotten a call...
saying that DNA...
matched So Yi's DNA we registered.
No. The dead child isn't So Yi.
The body was far too damaged...
to run a DNA test.
Mom. I don't want to believe it, either.
But even the police said it was So Yi under the circumstances.
Then our So Yi...
is really dead?
Is that it?
Our dear So Yi.
- Dad? - Grandpa?
- Dad! - Father!
- Dad. - Oh, my goodness.
Everyone will believe that So Yi is dead, right?
That old man Nam Man Joong can't disapprove of me now.
Se Rin, I'm in desperate need of a drink today.
Can't you treat me to some?
All I have to do now is win Yu Jin's heart.
What's taking Mom so long?
Tae Yang.
Hey, Hye In.
Tae Yang. I kept you waiting, didn't I?
I'm sorry.
But I can't believe we're on a blind date.
How awkward.
What?
Mom. Why did you do it?
Do you know how shocked I was to see Hye In?
Why were you shocked? You two already know each other.
I told you, didn't I?
That the person I like is Se Rin.
Yes, I know that.
But Se Rin has no feelings toward you.
And I even know that Se Rin finds your feelings uncomfortable.
So stop making things difficult for her.
Date someone who likes you.
The lunch hour must be over. Go back to your office.
I went over to the market I used to work at to hang out after so long.
That was when I heard you were looking for Kyung Sook and called.
But why are you looking for her?
I have something I must ask her.
Is there anyone close to her you can get in touch with?
Like her family or someone.
Let's see. Kyung Sook lost her parents early in life...
and didn't get married. I doubt she has any family.
Is that so?
Oh, right. There was a newlywed bride...
who ran a snack bar Kyung Sook was very close with...
like best friends.
That woman could get in touch with Kyung Sook.
She was a single mother who was raising a son by herself.
Could I possibly know her number?
I might have the memo with her number at home somewhere.
I'll call you after searching around.
Thank you. I'd really appreciate that.
This is very important to me.
All right.
Find that snack bar owner,
and I might be able to find where Seo Kyung Sook is.
Hey, Young Jun. Great timing. I have something to tell you.
What?
You're lying, right, Young Jun?
How is that possible?
How is our So Yi dead?
Wasn't it Nam Yu Jin who checked?
I can't believe him.
I checked with the police.
What Nam Yu Jin said was true.
No. I need to confirm it with my own eyes.
Let go.
Se Rin, please.
No. It's not our So Yi.
No, it's not So Yi. I will check myself.
It's not our dear So Yi.
Gyeo Ul? Jung Gyeo Ul!
Oh, Tae Yang. Come and have some fruit.
No, I'm good. Let me get some fresh air.
What? Did something happen to him?
He didn't seem all that happy during dinner.
I'm not sure.
Anyway, Se Rin's quite late today.
Se Rin!
Mr. Jung. How did this happen?
I was giving her a ride after working overtime...
when she suddenly passed out.
"She suddenly passed out?"
Could Se Rin be unwell?
It must be from overworking.
Gosh. I knew she was pushing herself with work these days.
Since you're all here, I'll excuse myself now.
It must've been tough bringing Se Rin here.
Thank you.
Don't mention it. Bye.
Mr. Jung.
Did you work overtime with Se Rin today?
What? Oh, yes.
Before coming home, I dropped by your office...
to get a contract reviewed. But you had already gone home.
Se Rin had an urgent matter to discuss and handle.
So I went back to my office.
- Really? - Yes.
Then I leave Se Rin in your care.
She's going through a difficult time right now.
Don't worry about her.
I'll look after her well.
All right.
Get home safely.
Father. I heard you fainted earlier.
Are you sure you don't need to see the doctor?
I'm fine.
That aside, has Yu Jin not gotten in touch yet?
No. He's not picking up my call.
Yu Ri, try again.
What if Yu Jin disappears like So Yi?
Why won't he answer his phone? Where did he go?
It hasn't been half a day since he left.
Let's wait a bit longer.
I'll call him again.
Oh, Yu Jin! Where are you right now?
Why didn't you pick up?
All right. Don't drink too much before you come home. Bye.
Is Yu Jin out drinking?
Yes, and he sounds quite drunk.
He must be devastated after losing his daughter.
It would be a relief if he could drink...
his sorrows away.
I'm glad that he's all right.
I'll go to my room too.
Let me help.
Yu Jin!
Ae Ra.
Ae Ra!
Ae Ra, wake up. Ae Ra!
Ae Ra!
(Woman in a Veil)
Who are you?
Ae Ra has amnesia?
So Yi is dead.
It's all my fault.
Please tell me whenever something troubles you.
Did she really lose her memories?
Oh Se Rin, you're such a nuisance.
I must put an end to this.
