(Episode 39)
Dan Dan!
Dan Dan, stop!
Dan Dan!
Dad?
Dad!
Dad. Oh, no. My gosh.
Oh, no. Please wake up.
Dad, please.
Dad, please wake up.
Dad!
Oh, no.
Dad...
(Emergency Rescue)
- My goodness. - Soo Chul!
- Soo Chul. - My gosh.
Soo Chul, what happened?
What happened to him?
Soo Chul, what happened?
Soo Chul, it's me.
Open your eyes.
What on earth happened, Dan Dan?
Why isn't he opening his eyes?
Did he hurt his head?
You were there when the accident happened.
Tell me what happened!
Dad was following me on his motorbike.
What? Does that mean this happened because of you?
Why did you run away in the first place?
What are you going to do now?
What if your dad dies?
Yeon Sil, will you calm down?
Why are you yelling at Dan Dan? She must be shocked.
Honey. What are we supposed to do?
Honey, please don't die on me.
Yeon Sil, calm down.
Soo Chul isn't going to die.
Dan Dan, was his doctor here?
What did they say?
Fortunately, he's fine.
He just broke his left arm,
so they put him in a cast.
I see.
Are you sure he's fine?
But he hurt his head in the accident.
He should be hospitalized for further tests.
We'll get the results tomorrow morning.
What? He needs further tests?
Are you saying Soo Chul might be brain dead?
- Mom. - What do I do?
Yeon Sil, why would you say such a horrible thing?
Why would he be brain dead?
She's right, Yeon Sil. Don't say such a horrible thing.
I'm sure Soo Chul will be fine.
Mom, Dad will be all right.
So, Mom, will you please calm down?
- Mom, he's opening his eyes. - His eyes are open.
Honey, do you see me?
Soo Chul, I'm your sister. Do you recognize me?
Can you see your family here?
- Yes. - Thank goodness.
My gosh. Honey.
- What a relief. - Dan Dan...
Dad. Are you all right?
Dan Dan, you should never be with Chairman Lee.
Don't go there.
Just stay home. Okay?
Dad. Why are you being like this?
- Hey, Dan Dan! - My goodness.
Honey.
Mr. Lee.
My dad...
He got into an accident because of me.
What do you mean?
Ms. Park, take your time and tell me what happened.
Well... The thing is...
I ran away from home.
And my dad was chasing after me on his motorbike.
And he got into a car accident.
So he was taken to the ER.
He finally regained consciousness.
But as soon as he woke up,
he told me to break up with you.
What do I do, Mr. Lee?
Ms. Park.
Which hospital is he in? I'm on my way.
We'll get the results tomorrow morning.
If everything is fine, he can leave the hospital.
You should go home now. I'll stay with him tonight.
Right, Mi Sook. Jun O, you should take your mom home.
Okay.
Call me as soon as you get the results, okay?
Yes, I will.
Gun, you take Mom home.
Dae Bum, you go take care of the chicken restaurant.
Okay.
Grandma, Uncle Gun. Let's go.
Dan Dan, you should go home with your grandma.
No, Mom. I'll stay here.
She's right. Let Dan Dan stay.
She won't feel comfortable at home anyway.
We will go home. You stay here with your mom.
- Okay. - All right. Let's go.
Get some rest, Soo Chul. See you, Yeon Sil.
Okay. Bye.
Can you go out and get me something to drink?
I want to talk to Dan Dan.
What?
Okay.
Can't he talk to Dan Dan when I'm around?
Why does he always want to talk to her without me?
If only he weren't injured, I would've knuckled him on the head.
This is why Dan Dan looks down on me.
Dan Dan.
As you see Mr. Lee every day while working in his house,
it won't be easy for you to get over him.
So you should quit immediately as I said.
If you don't see him,
you will forget everything soon, as if nothing happened.
Dad.
My feelings for Mr. Lee aren't just a fling.
I thought it over hundreds of times
But no matter how I look at it,
my feelings for him are true.
I like him a lot.
So, Dad, can't you just trust me and support my decision?
- Dad, please. - Dan Dan.
I'm begging you now. Aren't you going to listen to me?
This just isn't right.
What...
I heard you were injured. How are you feeling now?
How dare you come here?
Who told you to come?
Get out of here this instant.
Dad, don't be like that.
I told him that you were injured.
He came here because he was worried.
It happened because of me. I'm really sorry.
I don't want to hear that from you.
Dan Dan will quit working at your house.
So pack up her stuff and send it back right away.
Dad, please.
You're old enough to know better.
What do you think you're doing with this young girl?
Aren't you ashamed of yourself?
Dad, you're being ridiculous.
Honey, calm down.
Send him away.
Chairman Lee, maybe you should leave now.
My husband just had an accident, so he's not feeling well.
We can talk next time.
Okay. I'm sorry.
I hope you get better soon.
Dad, I'm telling you.
No matter what you say, I will never break up with him.
Dad, I'm sorry, but I should go with Mr. Lee now.
- Mr. Lee, let's go. - Dan Dan, stop right there.
Let's just go.
Ms. Park.
Stay here.
You should take care of your father tonight.
I'll get going then. Please take care.
Dad, you're unbelievable.
Mr. Lee came all the way here to visit you.
I'll just go see him off.
- Dan Dan. - Honey.
She will just see him off. Stop it.
My goodness. Oh, dear.
It's me.
Why were you so startled?
You caught me by surprise, hugging me like that from behind.
I don't see why it would startle you so much.
Aren't I the only woman in the world...
who would hug you like that?
I guess you're right. It was just too sudden.
What are you doing here? I told you to stay.
You came all the way here,
so I wanted to walk you to the parking lot.
Let's go.
You're happy that I'm seeing you off, aren't you?
Are you touched?
Yes, I am happy. I'm touched.
We're here already.
This won't do.
I should take you to the building again.
It's okay.
I'm here to see you off,
so you should go first.
Then I'll leave once I see you head inside.
Go on inside.
You go first.
I will go inside once I see you drive off.
No one can beat how stubborn you are.
I give up.
It's cold out. Go inside.
Mr. Lee.
Let's keep fighting.
Okay. Let's keep fighting.
I'll head back, then.
Bye.
I'm sorry, Mr. Lee.
What should we do now?
What will Dan Dan do?
I don't think my uncle will give in.
I don't think he will either.
I never even dreamed that Dan Dan...
would date someone so shocking.
It's something I only saw on TV or in the movies.
I didn't think it would happen in real life.
None of my friends...
are dating anyone that much older.
I think Uncle is more upset that...
he has three kids rather than about the age gap.
But then, I don't know any couples in this situation.
It is quite shocking.
What would you do?
What if your future daughter were in this situation?
You're going way overboard.
I'm not even married. Why would I think about my daughter?
I said "what if."
I think we have a bigger problem than Dan Dan.
Jun O. What'll happen to us later on?
We're not that shocking a couple.
We're in-laws. That's just it.
So, Mi Rim,
don't worry.
Mi Rim. Shall we go over there and have a fishcake?
Yes, let's.
My dear daughter-in-law, I need you to give me some money.
Not much, just 50,000 dollars.
My friends and I decided to go to Hawaii for some fresh air.
Mother.
I told you many times before.
I can't give you any more than your allowance.
Tailor the trip to fit your budget.
But...
I'm not crossing the Han River.
I'm going to Hawaii.
Still, mother. My dear husband...
told me not to give you any money other than your allowance.
You know he said I can't. Not ever.
So I'll pretend I didn't hear this request.
Okay?
Honey! Sweetie! I'm home!
My goodness. My dear husband is home.
Honey. Sweetie.
I bought you a diamond necklace.
Oh, my gosh. Darling, thank you so much.
What kind of diamond is this huge?
It's beautiful.
Do you like it, sweetie?
So much.
It's even prettier because it's big.
I love it so much.
Just the idea gives me chills.
If that were to happen, what should I do?
No way. That can never happen.
Yes, I must tear them apart.
I will crush that family of frauds down to the root.
I shouldn't waste time.
Oh, my. What brings you to my home?
Are you here to apologize to me?
Hey, you. The root of all fraud.
Even if you like and crave money,
how could you even think of nabbing Chairman Lee?
As if trying to take Se Ryeon wasn't enough,
you turned your niece into a gold digger...
to try to take over my household?
What did you just say?
A gold digger?
Are you talking about Dan Dan?
Yes, you root of all fraud.
This was your plan, wasn't it?
How could someone so much younger even go for Chairman Lee?
- What else is a gold digger? - My goodness.
Tell her to leave Young Guk alone.
Tell your niece to leave my house.
Do you think I'll just sit by and watch this happen?
My gosh. This is unbelievable. I should be the one complaining!
I might not own a company like FT Group,
but I have enough to live in comfort!
That's why wherever I go, no one looks down on me!
That's why I don't accept Chairman Lee,
and my brother Soo Chul also disapproves of him!
Our sweet, young Dan Dan fell for a much older man...
who even has three kids, and my brother Soo Chul...
is in the hospital right now in utter shock!
Oh, my goodness, what? You people disapprove of Young Guk?
Do you think I'll believe that?
I don't care if you don't!
At least we won't sell our daughter or niece, unlike you!
Watch who you're talking to!
What? What did you just say?
When did I "sell" my daughter?
All you people do is cling to a rich family and con them!
- What? My gosh! - You!
You're the root of all fraud and you're the ringleader!
Do you want a real fight?
- Do you? - Oh, my gosh.
They say it takes one to know one.
You're just as bad!
Just so you could get a chunk of your company's shares,
you tried to sell your daughter into marriage.
Am I wrong, you mistress?
What was that? Did you just call me a mistress?
When you're a ringleader of a family of fraudsters?
- Darn you! - Let go of me, rich mistress!
- Let go of me! - Rich mistress!
- Will you stop it? - Get off me!
- You! - You!
Ms. Cho, she called me a mistress.
She said I tried to sell my daughter!
Ki Ja, that rich mistress called me the ringleader...
of a parasite family of fraudsters.
That's what she said!
You are the root of all fraud!
- That's what you are! - No!
- Darn you! - Stop it!
- You mistress!
- You'll pay for this! - Darn you!
- You're nothing but a mistress! - Stop it!
- You root of all fraud! - You mistress!
- You need to stop! - You mistress!
Mi Sook was Ms. Park's aunt?
You really can't trust anyone.
How could she keep that from us for this long?
Did you really have no idea?
I didn't.
Is Dae Ran right about Mi Sook?
Did she really not plan the whole thing?
So her niece could get close to Mr. Lee?
Why didn't you manage to figure that out?
No, it can't be.
Mi Sook is not that bright.
Is Mr. Lee out of his mind?
He broke off the engagement with you just to date a country bumpkin?
My gosh, how unbelievable.
I'm lost for words, this is so hard to believe.
But... That part about Ms. Park's father...
not approving of Mr. Lee. Is that true?
You were there when she said so.
That he locked Ms. Park in a room...
to stop her from seeing Mr. Lee.
But why should we care who Mr. Lee dates anyway?
Don't even look that way. I'm sick of that family.
That root of all fraud.
Mr. Kang, take me to the company, not home.
Yes, ma'am.
How dare the likes of her belittle me?
I'll make them pay.
That ringleader of fraud.
(Chairman Lee Young Guk)
You're old enough to know better.
What do you think you're doing with this young girl?
Aren't you ashamed of yourself?
Chairman Lee.
I just met Ms. Jang.
Are you really considering marrying Ms. Park?
Did you visit her family?
I did.
Is that all you can say?
Her father is against this relationship.
The family shut the door right in your face.
Goodness, how embarrassing.
Hey.
I'm worried that people will get wind of this.
How could you be rejected by those parasites?
Did you interrupt my work...
just to tell me that?
As if there's a more important matter.
Does it embarrass you that I'm mentioning this in public?
It's exactly why you should get a grip on yourself.
Have you forgotten...
how your father built this company?
His blood, sweat, and tears went into this place.
But here you are...
trying to marry into that parasite of a family...
just so that you can feed them...
your father's accomplishments.
I don't care if that gold digger has you wrapped around her little finger.
Your father will be turning in his grave right now.
Ms. Yoon, Ms. Kim, please come in.
Escort her out.
Chairman Lee!
And from now on, she is not to enter...
my office or the building without my permission.
Let the front desk know.
Yes, Mr. Lee.
Ms. Wang, let us escort you out.
No, let go of me!
You.
I lived with your father for over 20 years...
and I'm the mother of your sister!
That makes me a mother to you as well.
That is not how one treats a parent.
You brat.
Move!
Unbelievable.
Your brother banned me from entering the office.
He's treating me like some peddler.
Why did you barge into his place of work then?
Should I sit around...
until that minx marries Young Guk?
If I have to receive my allowance from her,
I'd rather kill myself.
Mom, Young Guk isn't saying he'll marry her anytime soon,
so why are you throwing a fit?
You don't know the half of it.
He already went to introduce himself to his family.
Do you know what this means?
Marrying her must be on his mind.
What? Young Guk introduced himself to her family?
That's right.
What's hilarious though is that her father is against them dating...
because he's an older man with three children.
It truly left me speechless.
Is that true?
Yes, of course!
Ms. Cho, what brings you around?
And what are these flowers?
I'm here on behalf of Ms. Jung.
I'll be your florist from now on.
Are you saying you work at Ms. Jung's flower shop?
Yes, that's what happened.
I see.
By the way, where's Ms. Park?
Something must've happened to her.
According to Jae Ni, her father...
took her home with him.
I bet it's because...
I received Ms. Jung's message.
The flowers will be placed...
in the downstairs and upstairs living rooms,
Mr. Lee's room and study,
and Ms. Wang's room. That's five in total.
I'm sure I didn't have to remind you.
Of course. I hope we get along then.
The flowers today are beautiful.
They smell exceptional as well.
Ms. Cho, I'm always grateful.
Se Jong, hi.
Ms. Cho.
Se Jong, have you been well?
Yes.
Se Jong, how about you go upstairs,
put down your backpack, and wash your hands?
- I'll have your snack ready. - Sure.
You know what? I don't mind the humiliation.
Being able to see my Se Jong...
is enough.
Dad, now that you're home with no serious injuries,
I'll head back.
Would that be okay?
Dan Dan, let me take you.
We'll grab some tea first.
No, you don't have to. I can manage on my own.
You shouldn't move around too much when you're still recovering.
No, it's all right. Let's go now while we're at it.
We'll go and collect your things.
Dad?
You shouldn't stay there.
Do as I say.
Dad, what's wrong with you?
I told you how sincere my feelings are.
Isn't that enough to make you rethink this matter?
Why are you only against us dating?
I'm 27 now and an adult.
I have a right to date the man I love.
Dan Dan, please.
I wouldn't have started this if your words were going to sway me.
Besides, I'm still the children's tutor.
I have work to do,
so I'm leaving.
Dan Dan!
Honey, that's enough.
Why are you being this way...
when going after her is how you got injured?
Let go of me!
Mr. Lee.
Ms. Park, why are you here?
Is your father doing better?
Yes, his test results showed no serious injuries,
so he was discharged.
Really? That's great news.
But why are you back here?
Did your father...
give us his approval?
No.
I left the house against his will again.
Mr. Lee,
I won't go back home anymore.
I know this will hurt my dad,
but I made myself clear to him.
That I have a right to be with the man I love.
Mr. Lee, as long as we're happy and we trust each other,
my dad will come around.
So, Mr. Lee,
you have to stay strong, okay?
I won't...
let this sway me either.
All right.
I will never change my mind, so don't you worry.
Mr. Lee.
Ms. Park,
have you not had lunch? Are you hungry?
Well, now that I think about it, I skipped breakfast...
and lunch.
What?
You skipped breakfast and lunch?
Come on. I'll treat you to pork cutlet.
Sure.
But Mr. Lee, are you sure we can hold hands...
so close to the office?
Who's going to call me out for holding my girlfriend's hand?
Mr. Lee, you're so cool.
What does he think he's doing, right outside the office?
What if someone sees him holding Dan Dan's hand?
Kids, I'm home!
Jae Ni, Se Chan, Se Jong!
- Ms. Park? - Ms. Park?
Are you back for real? Are you all right?
Yes, I'm fine.
I know you were worried about me.
I'm sorry about that.
It's all right.
I'm just glad that you're back.
Talk about a family reunion.
It hasn't been that long, you know.
Ms. Park, you should never leave again.
Thanks for welcoming me home.
Come in.
Anna, what brings you by?
Young Guk, are you out of your mind?
Out of my mind? What are you talking about?
You and Ms. Park were hugging and holding hands...
right outside the office.
How can you be so careless?
- Anna... - Young Guk, this is wrong.
How can you date her when she's only 27?
What if people got wind of this?
They will point fingers at you for taking advantage of her,
and Ms. Park will be the center of people's gossip.
How can you be so ignorant?
Anna, that's enough.
Things are tough for us as it is without you adding onto it.
Why are you being this way anyway?
I'm only speaking up...
because you're clearly not thinking straight.
You need to get a grip on yourself.
Don't you have a daughter of your own?
How would you feel if Jae Ni were to date a man...
14 years her senior with 3 children when she's 27?
Would you approve?
Would you be able to give her your blessing?
Anna...
Young Guk, there's an urgent matter to discuss.
Young Guk, think this through.
This is just wrong.
I overheard everything.
Why was she yelling at the top of her lungs?
What's up with her?
I get that you two are like family,
but that's crossing a line.
Her worries weren't channeled at you.
One might think that she was Ms. Park's mother.
Mr. Kim, can you pull over?
Yes, sir.
How many hotteoks are you going to have?
- Two for me. - Two for me as well.
- Two. - I'm going to have ten. No, a thousand!
I'll get home myself, so you're free to go.
Are you sure?
That sounds delicious.
- Exactly. - I know.
Did you say a thousand?
I'll have 10,000 hotteoks!
It's Dad.
What...
Where are you all off to?
To celebrate Ms. Park's return, we're off to get some hotteok.
You should come with us.
Hotteok? Nice. I was actually craving some too.
I'll come with you.
- Sure. - Come on.
Let's go.
I bet it'll be good.
Dad, how many are you going to have?
Me? Well...
Four?
- Look! - We look awesome.
Ms. Park, Dad. Let's take some photos.
- What do you say? - Sounds like fun!
We should do it.
Sure.
- Nice! - Let's do this!
Dad, just get over here.
I'm going to put on sunglasses.
Se Chan, check out Se Jong.
- Nice. - You're the king!
Here you go.
And the sunglasses.
Nice!
- One, two, three. - Three.
Nice.
- One, two, three. - One, two, three.
(My Dan Dan)
The receiver cannot be reached. You will be directed to voicemail.
Dan Dan, where are you?
I'm outside Mr. Lee's residence.
Pack your bags and meet me outside. I'll wait.
Your message has been recorded. Thank you for using our service.
Why are you calling me?
Soo Chul, we need to talk in person.
Why should I do that?
I'm busy. Goodbye.
It's about Dan Dan.
- What? - You said you'd take care of it,
so why is she still dating Young Guk?
I have something to say, so get over here.
Mind your own business and live your own life.
Get over here!
Or I'll come to see you at your restaurant.
What?
How dare you?
How dare you threaten me?
Who are you to talk to me about Dan Dan's life?
Okay, fine. It's like you said.
I tried to stay out of this because I have no right...
to interfere in her life.
And I trusted that you'd take care of it.
But what have you been doing?
She's still dating Young Guk.
I went to see him...
and it didn't seem like they were going to end things.
Are you going to let Dan Dan date him?
If that's how it's going to be, I'll take her to the US with me.
I'll tell her that I'm her mother and take her away.
What did you just say? You'd tell her what?
What? You'll take her to the US?
Says who?
That will never happen,
so get out of this country!
You'd better think this through...
because you can't break them up as long as she stays in Korea.
Wouldn't going to the US with me be a better choice?
Why should someone her age become a mother of three?
I'll be good to her in the States,
so please let me take her with me.
Since childhood, she has only lived a tough life.
Shut it!
This is all your fault!
If you had taken better care of her,
she would be out there having fun.
Why is she working as a live-in tutor...
when girls her age should be enjoying life?
This wouldn't have happened had she not worked there.
You're the reason why she met him,
so why won't you let me fix this mess?
Dan Dan never got to enjoy her life.
It's why I can't let her...
become a mother of three at that age!
Father.
Father, please don't do this.
Mr. Lee.
Please. I'm begging you.
Please end it with Dan Dan.
My Dan Dan...
Please let her go.
I'm begging you.
You have a daughter, don't you?
So please reconsider this from a father's perspective.
My daughter is only 27.
She's a young lady with her whole life ahead of her.
Mr. Lee.
What can I do to make you end this relationship?
I'll do anything you ask.
So please, just let her go.
I'm begging you.
You're a father too.
Please think of what's good for Dan Dan.
I understand what you mean.
So please, stand up.
Thank you, Mr. Lee.
Then,
I'll be counting on you.
Ms. Park.
Mr. Lee...
Mr. Lee.
You know what?
When I turned 20,
I felt like a grown-up.
And when I started working...
and started making money,
I felt confident that I could support myself.
So I thought I was an adult,
and I could lead...
a life that I wanted according to my own free will.
But...
it's not like I've lived on my own...
the whole time.
It was only possible...
because of my parents and family.
I had forgotten that.
I love my dad...
more than anyone...
in the whole world.
Just like you loved your mother.
And my dad begged you on his knees.
I can't believe I hurt him like that.
It's me who told you to stay strong...
over and over again.
I'm so sorry that I came to this conclusion.
Ms. Park.
I understand what you mean.
So you don't have to force yourself to say anything else.
I'll tell the kids that I'll be quitting.
I should get going then.
Dad.
I broke up with Mr. Lee.
Are you serious?
Yes.
Thank you, Dan Dan. I appreciate it.
But Dad, just because I broke up with him,
it doesn't mean I can quit my job right away.
I should keep working until they find a new tutor.
You understand, right?
Of course.
It's fine as long as you don't change your mind.
I should get going then.
Dan Dan, you can't change your mind.
You gave me your word.
You're breaking up with Mr. Lee, okay?
I know. Don't worry.
Dad, I should go.
Mr. Lee, this is Dan Dan's father.
Yes. I'm listening.
Mr. Lee. I just met Dan Dan.
Is it true that Dan Dan broke up with you?
Yes.
We broke up.
Thank you.
By the way, Mr. Lee,
may I ask you one more favor?
Please find a new tutor as soon as possible...
so Dan Dan can move out immediately.
It will be uncomfortable for you both to stay in the same house.
Okay. I'll do that.
Please don't worry.
I appreciate it.
Mister.
How did you know I was here?
I went to your place to see you and met your mom.
She told me this was where you worked now.
My mom did?
And why didn't you tell me that you got a job here?
We're friends now.
I should know where my friend works, don't you think?
I never agreed to be friends.
Come on. Just be friends with me.
I was a friend for you when we first met.
Just go. I'm busy now.
This flower shop is pretty.
It's perfect for you.
Mister, please.
I'm here to buy flowers.
Can you make a pretty carnation bouquet?
A carnation bouquet?
It's for my mom.
What is this flower called?
Ranunculus.
What about this?
Delphinium.
Delphinium? That's difficult.
What about this?
It's a rose.
Do you not know what a rose is? It's a Victoria rose.
I see. It's a rose.
I know what a rose is.
Go ahead and finish up.
Young Guk.
You ending up like this...
I think it's my fault.
After Young Ae left,
it seemed like you were finally seeing someone nice,
and I was pleased.
So I ignored the circumstances...
and egged you on.
The issues that troubled you...
Maybe I thought too lightly of them.
I'm sorry, Young Guk.
Well, yes. As a father myself,
Ms. Park's father...
I do understand him.
I'm sure that's why you broke it off.
I didn't stop to think how Ms. Park's father would feel.
I hoped you would turn a new leaf.
I wanted you to be happy again.
So I put my wishes for you over everything else.
What...
Where did that handkerchief come from?
No.
I'm too old.
I have three children.
How did that handkerchief get there back then?
I still don't understand.
Mr. Lee.
Ms. Park.
Where did you go at this hour?
The convenience store.
Mr. Lee. Did you have a drink?
Yes. I had a little to drink.
Mr. Lee. If you do this,
it'll make me upset and worried.
Must you do this?
I'm...
trying to hold back too.
Be cool about it and let it go.
Ms. Park.
Don't worry about me.
I'm fine.
I'm really fine.
But I'm worried that...
you might suffer.
Mr. Lee.
Dan Dan. What did you just say?
Like you said, I really tried to break up with Mr. Lee.
But Dad,
it's just too hard.
What you want is for me to be happy.
You're worried dating Mr. Lee will be hard on me.
But Dad, I can be happy.
I don't think I can break up with Mr. Lee.
Can't you give in just this once?
Dan Dan.
It is hard to break up with someone you loved.
Hang in there.
Time will sort it out for you.
Dad.
I don't think I can forget about him.
I think I really love him a lot.
Dan Dan.
You promised to break up with him.
Why are you upsetting me?
Move out right now.
Don't wait for them to find your replacement.
Okay. Fine, I'm sorry.
Dan Dan.
Honey, wait.
Can't you let her do as she wants?
She likes him so much.
What are you talking about?
Are you saying we should accept him?
What's so wrong with that?
Is this situation really that bad?
Mr. Lee is rich, so why worry?
You seem to be worried about his kids,
but it takes money to raise kids these days.
They can study abroad when they're older.
And to be honest, rather than marrying someone her age...
and having to work her whole life only to live an average life,
it's better for her to marry Mr. Lee...
and never have to worry about money.
What's so bad about marrying a man 14 years older?
People 20 years apart marry and live happily enough.
He has three kids.
Do you want 27-year-old Dan Dan to raise 3 kids?
Are you saying that because she isn't yours?
My gosh.
What did you just say?
Is that how you've thought of me?
I spoke up out of pity for Dan Dan...
and is that how you respond?
I'm speaking like that because she isn't mine?
I raised Dan Dan since she was a baby.
I changed her diapers and fed her.
I'm saying this because I consider myself her mom!
Rather than her marrying someone her age and struggling,
I'm saying a chairman is better. Is that a bad thing to say?
Darn it.
You fool.
You just make things worse.
Soo Chul is stressed out as it is.
Why did you say that?
I don't care! I feel better now that I spoke up.
Am I wrong?
I'm not scared of him anymore.
Will you stop it? Be quiet.
Hey!
Are you crazy?
Are you trying to mess with me?
How could you bring a newborn to work?
I'm sorry.
My Dan Dan...
After all I went through to raise her...
You wanted to talk.
Listen.
Take Dan Dan and return to the US.
Soo Chul.
Can I really?
Can I really do that?
But...
don't tell her you're her mom.
She knows her mom abandoned her.
If she realizes you're her mom,
she'll never go to the US with you.
So don't ever tell her the truth.
Okay. I'll do that.
I'm letting you take her...
because you're her mom and I trust you'll be responsible.
Help her...
get over Chairman Lee and start over.
Yes, Soo Chul. Don't worry.
I'll take good care of our Dan Dan.
I'll support her...
so she can become a well-known designer.
Thank you so much.
I'm not letting you take her...
because I forgive you for what you've done.
Don't forget that.
I know.
I'm sorry.
Right.
Rather than dating a single father of three,
she's better off going to the States.
Dan Dan.
Here.
I thought about it,
and you keep going back on your word about Mr. Lee...
because he's physically nearby.
Out of sight, out of mind, right?
So that's why...
Dan Dan.
You should join Ms. Anna Kim and go to the US next week.
Dad?
I met with her recently...
and heard about your replacement backing out.
She was thrilled to hear that you were available.
But Dad...
Dan Dan, you may think that you're all grown up,
but you're still a child in my eyes.
You have barely lived your own life,
so you wanting to be with Chairman Lee...
isn't something I can approve of.
Dan Dan, going to the US...
will help you move on.
Study some more...
and spread your wings.
You said before that you wanted to study design.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Dad...
I'm not saying you should live there forever.
Just stay there for three years,
study some more,
and live your life like other young people your age.
After that,
if you still can't bring yourself to move on,
I'll reconsider your relationship with him.
Do you mean that?
After three years,
if I say I want to be with Mr. Lee,
you'll reconsider the idea?
That's right. I will.
So please spend three years in the US.
Dan Dan, this is...
my one and only wish.
All right.
I'll do as you say.
Thank you, Dan Dan.
Thank you.
Young Guk.
I heard that you and Ms. Park broke up.
It was a wise decision.
Anna.
Is that what you came to talk to me about?
Oh, actually,
Ms. Park's father...
So, Mr. Park...
came to see me.
He begged me to take her with me when I returned to the US,
so I agreed.
She once agreed to work with me, you see.
I thought that you should know...
which is why I came to share the news.
Right. I got it.
Young Guk, what's done is done,
so try to move on even though it's hard.
Don't worry.
Ms. Park and I agreed to end things.
Of course. And I'm grateful.
But Anna,
why is the end of our relationship...
something you should be grateful for?
Oh, well...
So...
I don't believe you two are compatible...
and this opens you up for a new relationship.
That's what I meant by it.
Anna.
You've been in love before, right?
You know how hard it is...
to manage after a breakup.
The pain is excruciating.
This breakup isn't something I wanted.
As the father of a daughter,
I tried to see things from his perspective.
So you being this way hurts me even more.
You're not the Ji Young I remember.
At any given time,
I thought I could count on you to be on my side.
Yes, Young Guk.
I'm sorry it came down to this.
I apologize for being harsh on you.
But please know that this is for your own good.
What?
It's for my own good?
How does this benefit me?
Shouldn't you want me to be with the woman I love?
How can this be for my own good...
when I'm wallowing in pain?
Anna, I have something to ask you as well.
I get how Mr. Park...
can be against us dating.
I fully understand his situation.
So why are you of all people against our relationship?
Young Guk.
Well,
I didn't want people to point fingers at you.
I'm only looking out for you.
Anna.
Let me be clear.
Don't ever say you were looking out for me.
Anyway, I have a meeting to attend.
Yes, I got it.
I'll get going then.
Mr. Lee, I agreed to go to the US.
I know. Anna informed me.
Mr. Lee,
could you wait for me?
I only agreed to go so that we can be together again.
After spending three years in the US,
if I still can't move on,
my dad will reconsider our relationship.
What I'm saying...
is that I'll live my life in the US,
so don't forget about me during that time.
All right.
I'll be the one to wait for you this time.
So don't think about me during your time there,
study some more, do whatever it is you want,
and go on dates if you meet someone nice.
Mr. Lee, don't say that.
I'll come back to you in three years.
I promise.
(FT Group)
Yes?
I was able to track down...
Ms. Park Dan Dan's birth mother as requested.
Really?
Her birth mother's name is Kim Ji Young.
Kim...
Ji Young?
(Young Lady and Gentleman)
She'll be moving out of the house this weekend.
Hurry with the preparations.
Heed my warning though.
I'll make sure she never finds out that I'm her mom.
Those two are seeing each other again.
Goodness. It's Ms. Kim and my husband.
They're having an affair?
Sa Ra, where's our son?
You, me, and our son. Let's start over.
Do you have a death wish?
My gosh!
A farewell trip?
We can't let her leave without one.
I promise to come back.
We'll be together again.
Ms. Park, be happy.
It's why she wanted to take Soo Chul to the US.
Please accept this, Soo Chul.
Didn't I warn you about...
telling Dan Dan that you're her mother?
Dan Dan's mother?
What did I just hear?
