Mom!
(Episode 97)
You didn't have to run. What if you trip?
- "Mom?" - I didn't want to keep you waiting.
It's okay. I was playing with my phone.
Anyway, is it really okay for you to be out of your office?
We can leave right now. Should we get going?
Let's go.
Dad. Let's get lunch.
Dad?
I forgot about an important business.
Let's have lunch next time.
But...
Didn't he want to get lunch together just now?
What sudden business does he have?
She was clearly the woman Ji Seok was dating 31 years ago.
That woman was Seo Tae Yang's mom?
What? You're home early, Yeon Seok.
Weren't you coming back after lunch?
Listen, Ji Seok.
Where did you meet the woman...
who called you Jung Wook last time?
That woman?
I bumped into her near Tae Yang's store.
But why do you keep asking about that?
Didn't you already ask that in the morning?
It's nothing.
Are you sure she wasn't someone you knew?
Yes. I didn't know her.
I see.
There are many weird people these days,
so avoid anyone you don't know.
What? Okay, I'll do that.
That would mean Tae Yang's mom recognized Ji Seok.
Apparently, she got me mixed up with someone else.
After the accident,
Ji Seok changed. So she thought she got the wrong person.
But I heard Seo Tae Yang grew up without a father.
Wait. Could he be...
Does that mean YJ Group got Kyungan Group's investment...
because of the marriage?
What an amazing man.
To find a way to survive,
he not only stained the honorary chairman's reputation...
but also used his daughter's marriage.
He's someone who'd even go beyond that.
He killed a man to become the chairman.
At this rate, is he going to become the chairman again?
That's what I'm worried about.
Then is Young Jun late because he's taking care of that?
What? Yes. It seems like it.
I thought you wouldn't show up.
I'm sorry.
I didn't ask you to come to get an apology.
You heard the news, right?
Yes.
Gosh. So you knew about everything.
And yet, how could you not get in touch with me?
Just thinking of how you used me until now...
made me loathe you.
No.
Honestly, I'm still very angry at you.
But...
I can't...
get over you, Mr. Jung.
Yu Ri.
I used you.
I know that. I do.
Even so...
I still like you so much.
Mr. Jung.
Can you please hold my hand once again?
If you'll be with me,
I'll say...
I won't marry him.
I'm sorry.
I won't ask you to stay... No.
I can't.
So please forget me.
You really...
make me miserable...
until the very end, Mr. Jung.
I mentioned this hairpin was pretty.
It really touched me that you remembered and gifted it to me.
So I wanted to do something in return.
No, I'm okay.
It suits you.
I can't get over you.
I still like you so much.
But still, this awful...
How can I wear something like this?
I guess you aren't too sick.
And why did you put on something that doesn't even fit you?
It's all because of you.
Because you wouldn't look at me.
My feelings may never be enough...
compared to your feelings for me.
And I'll be rather curt and indifferent...
when I am with you.
That's who I am,
so do you still want to date me?
Really?
Do you mean it?
Yes, if it's okay with you.
Of course, it's okay with me.
No, I love it!
Have some green juice.
Enough of this.
It must be tiresome every morning.
No way.
Do you know how happy I am when I make green juice...
while thinking about you?
Yu Ri.
I'm so happy.
I like you so much, Mr. Jung.
(Planning Team)
- Father? - Hey.
I heard you left without eating breakfast.
You had to come to the office?
I had a board meeting about Kyungan Group's investment,
so I had to come for that.
But you should be in your office to meet the board.
I thought I saw you coming out of the Planning Team's office.
Well, it was because...
I wanted to warn Gyeo Ul regarding this incident.
Anyway, why are you here so early?
I got a lot to do because Yu Jin was disciplined...
after Director Park's incident.
Right, I had to tell you something regarding that.
Are you asking me to appoint you as the director?
Yes.
It looks like your scandal with the shell company will quiet down,
and Kyungan Group will invest soon after Yu Ri's wedding.
Doesn't this mean you'll soon be the chairman again?
So you must follow through with the promise you made.
We can discuss this after I take my office back.
You need to wait.
Father, does it sound like...
I'm asking you for a favor?
What?
You finally have a chance to claim your office back.
What happened at the clock shop...
shouldn't be exposed.
You understand what I mean, right?
What's wrong? Are you looking for something?
I always leave my toothbrush here, but I can't find it anywhere.
"Your toothbrush?"
What about your desk drawer?
No.
Darn it, where is it?
I thought I left it here.
The women at the ladies' get-together...
must have heard I'd soon be in-laws with Kyungan Group.
But none of them reached out to me. Goodness.
Well, if I were them,
I'd also be too jealous to reach out to me.
Mom, why did you want to see me?
Yu Ri, let's go shopping later.
You have to meet his family soon.
Let's buy something to wear for the family gathering...
and get a massage too.
We need to be ready ahead of time.
I'm not in the mood to shop.
Mom, are you that happy with my marriage?
Of course.
Once you marry him, I'll be in-laws with Kyungan Group.
Those haughty women at the ladies' get-together...
will be so jealous of me.
So you're marrying me off for your own good.
Dad, you, and Mr. Jung...
Why does everyone only want to take advantage of me?
Do you think I'm such a pushover?
Goodness, "take advantage of you?"
You're probably bothered that this is a marriage of convenience.
But honestly, isn't it nice to marry someone in your league?
Look at your brother!
He married twice to women who were nowhere good enough...
and brought this mess upon himself.
What do you mean I have to go to an overseas branch?
What about my position as a director?
You can let Ae Ra take over for a while.
Dad, why are you doing this?
I took the entire blame for the incident last time!
Just think of this as a part of that incident.
I finally have a chance to take my office back as the chairman,
but Director Park's incident may come back to haunt me.
Is that really the only reason?
By any chance, did I do something wrong?
You didn't do anything wrong.
Ae Ra is good enough to work as a director.
That's why.
"Good enough?"
Dad, she's deceived you before.
You already know what she's like!
Yet you're saying she's good enough?
I can no longer trust...
anything you're saying about Ae Ra.
You said you'd find a chance to kick Ae Ra out,
but you've been pushing me out instead!
Something doesn't seem right.
By any chance, is Ae Ra blackmailing you?
"Blackmailing me?"
It's nothing of that sort.
Are you sure?
Please be honest with me.
If that's the case, you don't have to hide it.
Dad, I can protect you.
"Protect me?"
What do you mean by that?
I have a card to play.
Father, I heard you met Yu Jin at home.
Did you two have a good talk?
Yes, we had a good talk.
Yu Jin will keep his position as a director.
What?
Yu Jin is the only successor of YJ.
I won't hand it down to anybody who isn't in the Nam Family.
Do you have amnesia?
Father, did you forget what I had in my hands?
You must be talking about a video of Pyeon Sang Guk.
You've become a family member as bad as me.
How do you have this?
This...
I'm sure I got rid of it.
Don't tell me...
Was this from Yu Jin?
To hide your past,
you killed a woman named Oh Se Rin...
and pinned that on Gyeo Ul's dad.
I thought Gyeo Ul was hostile toward you...
simply because you stole her place as Yu Jin's wife.
But that wasn't the case.
Tell me.
Did Yu Jin give you this?
That's not what's important right now.
We are holding each other's secret. That's important.
Don't you dare...
think of crossing the line again.
Just help me become the owner of YJ.
Yu Jin!
Nam Yu Jin.
How could you deceive me despite having the video?
Nam Yu Jin!
This is it.
With this, I can control Ae Ra.
I told you everything.
Now it's your turn to tell me what happened, Dad.
Once you show that video to Ae Ra,
she'll know it was from me.
When that happens,
Ae Ra will tell me what she used against you.
But I don't want to hear it from her.
Please tell me yourself, Dad.
I had no idea Dad was such a person.
Uncle. How was the school reunion you went to with Mal Ja?
Yes.
Even though we got together after a while, nobody had changed.
Uncle. Wasn't it a school reunion?
But you took Mal Ja with you?
Yes. Introducing Mal Ja as my girlfriend to my friends...
sounded like a good idea.
"Introduced her?"
Does that mean you will...
Well, you see.
I'm going to marry Mal Ja.
I will propose to her later.
Help me out when that happens. Okay?
Sure. Just say the word.
Aunt Mal Ja will love it when you propose to her.
What does that mean?
What?
It's asking the person you love to marry you.
Did someone propose to you as well, Mom?
What?
Well...
Ha Neul. What should we do at the park tomorrow?
I want to play with bubbles.
Bubbles? Okay, let's do that tomorrow.
Yes, I'm excited!
Grandpa Ji Seok also likes bubbles.
Can't we invite him to come tomorrow?
Why not? We sure can invite him.
Really? Then I'll give him a call.
The result should be out by now. Why aren't they calling?
Yes? How did it go?
Are you sure?
Seo Tae Yang...
is Ji Seok's son?
I can't believe it.
Yeon Seok.
Have some fruit.
Yeon Seok. Why are you staring at me?
Is it because I'm stealing a piece?
No, not at all.
Thanks, Ji Seok.
Yeon Seok. Can I go somewhere with Secretary Kim tomorrow?
Go ahead.
Where are you going?
Ha Neul is going to the park tomorrow with Tae Yang and Gyeo Ul.
So I'm tagging along.
With Seo Tae Yang?
You scared me. Why are you so shocked?
It's nothing.
Will it be just the three of you without anyone else?
No.
Gyeo Ul, Ha Neul, Tae Yang,
and me. It'll be the four of us.
Right. Have a safe trip.
I'll let Secretary Kim know.
Okay. Thanks, Yeon Seok.
Ji Seok and Seo Tae Yang.
It's okay. They don't know about each other's existence.
I just have to make sure Ji Seok stays away from Seo Tae Yang's mom.
Come on, Ms. Seo. Go with them.
But Uncle, I really don't have to go.
Taking care of the store alone is tiresome.
But you haven't been able to get some fresh air...
because of the busy store.
Take this chance to change your mood...
and have fun with Ha Neul.
He's right, Aunt.
You'll get to meet Uncle Ji Seok and get to know him.
Mom, Grandpa Ji Seok is a great person.
You'll like him, too.
Come with us.
All right.
Tae Yang. Great uncle Ji Seok is coming straight to the park, yes?
Yes. I called him just now. He'll soon be on his way.
We should also get going.
Right. Making him wait is bad manners.
Then I leave the store to you, Uncle.
I'll be there right away if anything happens. So call me.
Okay, I will. Don't worry about the store.
Enjoy your time together.
Then we're off.
Let's go, Ha Neul.
My gosh.
- We're off. - Okay.
- Have a safe trip. - We will.
Go ahead. Goodness.
How do I keep Ji Seok from meeting Seo Tae Yang's mom?
Ji Seok. Have fun!
Honey. Let's have gimbap for lunch.
- Honey? What's on your mind? - What?
Well, it's nothing.
What did you say?
I wanted gimbap for lunch.
"Gimbap?" That's out of the blue.
Ji Seok went to have fun with Ha Neul's family today.
He asked for a lunchbox, so I made gimbap for him.
But he didn't take it because Seo Tae Yang's mom made a feast.
She should've said something if she had planned to join them.
Then I wouldn't have had to make the lunchbox.
Hold on.
What did you say just now?
Seo Tae Yang's mom joined them?
Yes. From what Ji Seok told me,
their whole family was coming.
What? Honey?
Good grief. What has gotten into him?
Really.
(Calls: Ji Seok)
Why isn't Ji Seok answering?
Pick up your phone. Pick it up!
Where is Great Uncle Ji Seok?
He'll be here anytime soon.
Yes, Uncle?
Is that so? Then I'll be right there.
Mom. What's wrong?
We suddenly got a group order to be delivered as soon as possible.
I better go and help.
Let me go.
It's your day off. Stay here.
No. They ordered all new menus, so it's better for me to go.
Ha Neul. I have to go to work.
I'm sorry.
Have fun with Grandpa, Gyeo Ul, and Tae Yang.
Okay, Mom.
- Bye. - Bye, Mom.
Young Soo, I'm here.
You're here, Ms. Seo.
I'm so sorry.
I tried to do this alone, but I couldn't.
You can't make all these by yourself.
Anyway, who ordered so much food?
Someone asked to have them delivered to a nearby children's center.
And he paid for everything too.
Did he pay for everything already?
- Then we should hurry. - Yes.
Hello, Ji Seok.
Hey, Yeon Seok, I didn't know you called.
What is it?
I'll be nearby today, so I'm going to pick you up.
Yes, then I'll be there on time.
Open up.
This is so good.
Your mom is a great cook.
I'll let her know.
She'll be happy to hear that.
Tae Yang, pose for the camera.
Hey, me too.
Ha Neul, you're so good at taking a picture.
Uncle Ji Seok and Tae Yang,
you two oddly look like.
Really?
I want to see it too.
No, Tae Yang is handsome and cool.
No, you're more handsome and way cooler.
You two are both handsome and cool.
That's why you two look alike.
Thank you, Ha Neul.
Anyway, aren't you all thirsty?
Are you thirsty?
Should I run over and get something to drink?
Tae Yang, I can go with you.
All right.
- We'll be back. - Okay.
Goodness.
- Here. - Thank you.
Let's go. Dribble. Go.
Be careful. That's it.
What's wrong, Tae Yang?
They look very happy.
My dad wasn't around while I grew up,
so I always envied my friends who played soccer with their dads.
I see.
You can play with me.
I'll be your dad today.
Here we go, Mr. Nam.
Come at me!
Go, Tae Yang!
- Go! - Go!
- Go, Uncle Ji Seok!
Go!
- Hold on. - Go!
Go!
Go, Tae Yang!
Yes!
- All right! - One more time.
Great job!
I somehow managed to keep them away from each other.
But what am I going to do in the future?
It'll be a matter of time before they find out.
Here, Tae Yang.
Thank you.
Here.
Thank you, Mr. Nam.
I had a lot of fun today.
Me too.
Tae Yang, let me know if there's something you want to do.
I'll do it with you.
Okay.
Hey.
We need to go.
Aunt Jung Hye is hurt.
What? What happened?
We'll have to find out in person.
She's home now.
Tae Yang, I'm worried. Let's go home.
Okay, Ha Neul. Let's go.
Then I'll go with you.
Okay, let's go.
Let's go.
Honey, Ji Seok isn't a child.
Mr. Kim will escort him home as he always does.
Just get some rest.
It's fine. I'll be back.
Okay.
Hey, Ji Seok. I'm about to leave.
What?
You're at Mr. Seo's place?
Yes, I'm at his home.
I'll call you later.
Wait, Ji Seok!
Gosh.
Grandpa Ji Seok, it's your first time here, right?
Yes.
We put your painting here.
Hey.
Yes, you're right.
Anyway, where's Aunt Jung Hye?
Mom, we're home.
I said I was fine. You should've stayed out.
We were too worried about you.
And Ha Neul's great uncle came with us.
Really?
If I had known, I would have prepared something.
Hello, Tae Yang's mom.
Yes, hello.
Hey, lady.
(Woman in a Veil)
Did you meet that man named Jung Wook?
Who's this man named Jung Wook? Why does she want to know so badly?
Ha Neul's great uncle may be Jung Wook.
I need to send Ji Seok abroad before that woman notices.
You want to send Grandpa to a hospital in America?
What do you mean Uncle Ji Seok is going with him?
Jung Wook?
That's the man Tae Yang's mom is looking for.
