(Episode 5)
Ms. Park.
I'd like a word with you.
With me?
Mr. Lee, I deeply apologize for my actions yesterday.
When I found out that Jae Ni was missing,
I was worried and in shock.
It's why I spoke without filtering my words.
- It won't happen again... - Follow me inside.
Ms. Park, have a seat.
Sure.
Ms. Cho, please serve Ms. Park's tea first.
Of course.
Ms. Park, please have some tea.
Oh, right.
Please don't be nervous.
I didn't request this meeting to berate you.
Sorry?
Ms. Park.
Thank you.
If it weren't for you,
I would have never known about Jae Ni's troubles.
And what you said last night?
Well, you're right.
You spoke nothing but the truth.
I thought I was being attentive,
but someone who really cared wouldn't have acted that way.
I haven't been...
showing my children enough interest.
It's why...
I need your help.
My help? In what way?
I'd like to close the gap between me and my kids,
but I don't know how.
They don't easily open up to people,
but you managed it in a short amount of time.
It's why I'd like you to help me...
get closer to my children.
Sure. I'd love to.
So...
I'm not fired, am I?
Why would I fire you? You're doing a great job.
I'd like for you to continue to get along with them well.
Okay. I will. I'll try harder.
By the way, Ms. Park.
Yes?
I know it's important to keep your promise to the kids,
but I want you to share everything about them...
with me from now on.
Then I'll be able to know better about them.
Okay. I'll do that.
So I'd like to ask you a favor.
It can be a hassle,
but I'd like you to keep a record of what happened with them...
and report it to me every day.
Okay. I'll be sure to do that.
Thank you so much.
Ms. Park, can we play a game here before I go to kindergarten?
Se Jong, I'm afraid we can't today.
Just one game, please.
Then you can do it on your way home.
If you play it now, you'll be late.
Okay. Promise you'll let me play later.
Okay.
Yes! I'm so excited.
Ms. Park.
We need to talk.
Okay.
What did you talk about with Chairman Lee earlier?
It was about work.
About work?
Be more specific.
Chairman Lee said he had been inattentive to the kids,
so he wants to pay more attention to them from now on.
And he told me to report back to him...
about the children every day.
Ms. Park,
now that you mention it,
why did you not tell me about Jae Ni?
Oh, well...
I promised Jae Ni that I wouldn't tell anyone,
so I couldn't tell you.
I see.
It's important to keep your promise with the kids.
But what if something happens to Jae Ni or the boys...
when you don't tell me because of the promise?
Who will be responsible for that?
The responsibility falls on the adults.
That's exactly why we hire a live-in tutor.
You seem quite slow on picking things up, being young and all,
but report back to me as well...
on everything regarding the children.
Okay. I will.
You may go now.
Yes.
She's young, so she still has a lot to learn.
Fine. It's better to have someone naive...
than someone sly.
Do you not have...
any feelings for me at all?
To me, you're...
a good friend.
You always have been,
you still are,
and you will continue to be one.
Hey. Guk Hee.
Guk Hee. Are you really leaving me?
Do you have to do this to me?
It's not like I'm leaving for good. Don't be so dramatic.
I'll just stay at Eun Yeong's in Hawaii for a while.
Hey. Listen.
I'll go to Hawaii with you then.
Mi Sook, I will be traveling around.
I won't just stay in Hawaii.
I just need some time alone.
Don't worry.
Guk Hee.
Then...
don't be gone for too long.
Okay.
It's really upsetting.
Why does it have to be Young Guk of all men?
All right. Now that you're leaving,
if you see anyone nice and handsome,
just date him no matter where he is from. Okay?
Okay. I'll try.
(Chairman Lee Young Guk)
Hey, Guk Hee.
What? Where are you going?
I'm going to Hawaii.
I won't be able to see you for a while.
What are you going there for?
I'll stay at my friend's in Hawaii.
I want to go surfing...
and get some fresh air.
Good for you. Have a safe trip.
Call me when you get there.
Okay.
Don't cry even if you miss me.
You take care too.
Ms. Park. You didn't forget your promise, did you?
Of course not, Master Se Jong.
But it has to be just one game, okay?
Yes.
All right. Go up. Push it.
- This is mine. - Oh no.
This is mine. I'll take it.
No. It's for me.
Follow me. It's going well.
Se Jong.
Ms. Park.
What on earth are you doing here with Se Jong?
Well... The thing is... On our way home...
After kindergarten...
Dad.
I asked Ms. Park...
to let me play one game.
Ms. Park.
Did you let him do it just because he asked?
Aren't you supposed to teach him...
that he shouldn't play things like this?
Why are you playing it with him?
Do you do this with Se Jong every day?
Dad, don't give her a hard time.
Ms. Park said no,
but I pestered her.
Se Jong, who said you could do things like this?
Playing games on the street is bad.
But all the other kids are doing it.
So why can't I?
You have to listen to me. This is a bad thing.
It's not bad. It's fun.
I hate you, Dad.
Se Jong.
What...
- Hey, Mom. - Jun O.
I'm really lonely and sad now.
Guk Hee went off to Hawaii all of a sudden.
I'm so scared to be alone in this huge house.
Mom, I'm late for class. I'm hanging up.
Hello?
He just hung up on me.
How ungrateful.
What? It's the realtor.
Hello?
What? What did you say?
My apartment, Unit 101 was put up for lease?
Says who?
It's my apartment. Who put it up for lease?
Your friend who lives in Unit 101.
She told me to talk to you since she's just a tenant.
Didn't you know?
Did you two have a fight?
My gosh. Did she really...
Am I her maid?
She keeps calling me, telling me to do this and that.
I'd rather move out.
My gosh.
What do you want?
Did you put this apartment up for lease?
You told me to leave.
When?
You said you couldn't live with me anymore.
Doesn't that mean I must move out?
So you put this place up for lease without so much as a word to me?
I'm leaving because you told me to,
so that's that. Now get out.
Do you have any money?
Where in Seoul will you move to without any money?
Hey.
Do you think there won't be a place for me to go?
Don't you brag just because you have some money.
My goodness. When did I brag about having money?
Didn't you?
You said that my Sa Ra didn't know her place.
You keep saying that and look down on her.
So what? Your amazing and smart sister Guk Hee.
Why was she rejected by Chairman Lee?
Goodness. Are you my friend Ki Ja?
How could you say something like that to me?
My sister left Korea because she felt so hurt.
She left?
You evil brat.
Fine. I get what you mean.
I'll find another tenant.
You can leave. I won't stop you!
My gosh.
Just because she was rejected by a guy,
she left the country at her age? She's no longer young.
Should I not have said I'd move out?
No.
I might not have much, but I have pride.
I can't live with that brat anymore.
I won't.
I'll leave. I'm leaving.
Hey. Were you waiting for me?
I said I would skip dinner because I'm on a diet.
Eat up.
It's because of Se Jong.
He's upset and refuses to eat.
Gosh. What's up with him?
My goodness.
The kid is going on a hunger strike already?
What is he upset about?
I'll talk to him and bring him downstairs.
Yes, do that. Things get sorted out...
when Ms. Cho gets to it, right?
The rest of you can start eating.
I said I wouldn't eat. Why do you keep asking me?
I don't want to eat with Dad.
Will you really be like this?
Dad always does what he wants.
I can't even get through to him. It's so tiresome.
I won't ever eat with him again. You can tell him that.
Lee Se Jong. You're going too far.
Why are you scolding me, Ms. Cho?
I don't want to talk to you.
You're just the same as Dad.
Get out of my room.
Se Jong really said he wouldn't eat with me?
Yes. I think you should eat without him.
I'll make sure he eats later, when he feels better.
Jae Ni, Se Chan. Let's eat.
- Okay. - Okay.
Lee Se Jong. Can we talk?
If you won't let me play arcade games,
I won't talk to you.
And I won't eat either.
Se Jong.
Do you really want a scolding?
I don't want to talk to you.
My friends' dads buy them gaming consoles...
and even play games with them.
Just like Jae Ni said, you're a narrow-minded dictator.
What?
Sir. When you told me you wanted to communicate with the kids...
and grow closer to them, didn't you mean it?
I did mean it.
I did, but what's wrong is wrong.
Kindergarten kids these days communicate by playing games,
and they sometimes make friends that way.
I'm against letting them play too often and lose control,
but if you let him...
play games three times a week...
Three times a week?
That's too often. No way.
Sir. Se Jong won't even drink any water.
What if he ends up getting sick?
Then persuade Se Jong to eat if I let him play once a week.
I can't allow any more than that.
Once a week isn't enough.
How about...
twice a week?
I can't talk to Se Jong for anything less.
Fine. You do that.
You agreed to let him play twice a week, right?
Really? My dad really said that?
Yes. He'll let you play games twice a week.
Yay. That's great.
Are you that pleased?
Yes, I am.
Then will you go downstairs and have some dinner?
Yes.
Dad. Keep your word and let me play games twice a week.
I will. It's a deal between two men.
But you can't play more than twice.
Okay. A deal between two men.
A deal between two men?
It's good to hear laughter again.
Since you finished your dinner,
- will you have this now? - Okay.
You're a good boy. You'll grow to be really tall.
I will. I'll be as tall as Dad.
Then you'll have to eat well,
and have that every day too, okay?
Okay.
You have something to say?
Yes. It's about Se Jong.
Go on, then.
Sir. Letting Se Jong play arcade games...
twice a week outdoors on the dirty street...
doesn't sound right.
I know what you're concerned about.
I thought so too.
But I don't think we can force our ideas on kids to control them.
Pardon?
From what Ms. Park told me,
kids these days make friends...
and communicate with them through games.
We can't prevent that completely.
You saw for yourself how strongly Se Jong retaliated.
That's just...
I'll talk to Se Jong and change his mind.
No, don't.
I don't want to push him and damage our relationship.
And I also think twice a week isn't that bad at all.
- But, sir... - Ms. Cho.
I'd like you to focus on running the house.
I'll handle the kids now.
Okay, then. I understand.
Why are you scolding me, Ms. Cho?
I don't want to talk to you.
You're just the same as Dad.
Get out of my room.
He talks to me that way because I'm not his mom.
For Se Jong's sake,
I'll do what it takes to become the lady of the house.
I'll do whatever it takes.
I'm off to school.
Se Chan, wait.
Why?
Hats should be worn properly.
I'll get going.
That rascal.
As a dad, shouldn't you know how kids like to dress?
Wearing caps to the side is the trend these days.
- I'll get going too. - Jae Ni.
Why don't I give you a ride to school?
What's with you today? It's not like you.
Gosh. What's with the cold shoulder?
Se Jong, why don't you take your dad's car to school?
- Okay. - Really?
All right. I'll drop you off at your kindergarten.
Got it. I'm off to kindergarten!
Let's go.
Ever since you came to live with us, the kids have gotten merrier.
Really?
Yes, really. Especially Se Jong.
He laughs as often as he used to when his mother was alive.
It puts a smile on my face as well.
Thank you for seeing it that way, Ms. Yeoju.
I hope you'll keep on taking good care...
of the little prince of this family.
Sure thing.
I still remember it as if it were yesterday.
Their late mother adored Se Jong, you see.
Even though he was adopted, she loved him with all her heart.
Se Jong was adopted?
As per her request, she and the chairman...
brought Se Jong into this family.
Like I said, he was adopted.
I had no idea.
Of course. The chairman was against it at first,
but his late wife insisted.
But he now treats Se Jong like one of his own.
He and his late wife are admirable people.
Ms. Yeoju!
Ms. Yeoju, are you out of your mind?
Have you gone crazy?
Who says that Se Jong was adopted?
I didn't mean to...
Se Jong is the chairman's son!
Understand?
Yes, of course. I understand.
Do you want to get fired? Is that it?
Should I make that happen for you?
If the chairman got wind of this,
he'd fire you in a heartbeat!
Is that really what you want?
Sa Ra, I hear you.
I'm sorry. I won't mention it again.
Ms. Park, hear me loud and clear.
I'll say this once again.
Se Jong wasn't adopted. He is the chairman's son.
So what Ms. Yeoju said just now...
You are to disregard what she said.
Got it?
I... Yes.
Ms. Yeoju!
How dense can Ms. Yeoju be?
If she blabbers such nonsense again,
I'll make her pay.
- Nice! - That was amazing.
- Nice shot! - Nice shot.
As if.
By the way,
I heard that the wife of Miso Steel's CEO was a member here.
Yes, she comes by sometimes.
Speak of the devil.
She just made an appearance.
- Is that her? - Yes.
Gosh, she's quite young and has an elegant side to her.
Could you perhaps make an introduction for me?
I hear the family might be hosting a wedding soon.
As if.
My son is seeing a young lady,
but the relationship is relatively new.
How did the two meet?
While jogging in Central Park.
It's like a scene from a movie. How romantic.
Could "Central Park" be the club's name?
Of course. How could she possibly say...
that they met dancing at a club...
like some commoner?
My daughter saw them at a restaurant once...
and was amazed by how compatible they seemed.
His girlfriend is prettier than any celebrity out there.
My Se Ryeon does take after me in terms of her beauty.
I haven't seen her myself,
but I'm looking forward to meeting her soon.
Ms. Wang, didn't you say...
that your daughter was going on a blind date?
How did it go?
She must hurry if she's 36 already.
But 36 is still a young age these days.
As it turns out, she's dating someone as well.
She said she'd introduce me to him, so I'm being patient.
There's no need to be stuck-up.
You should know that your son...
is head over heels for my daughter.
I look forward to my daughter being your daughter-in-law.
It's me. Where are you right now?
Are you with him at the moment?
Yes, we're out on a date.
What's this about?
I see. You're out on a date?
Well, have fun and don't get into any arguments.
Of course.
Did you call me just to say that though?
No, of course not.
I just thought it'd be better to make introductions first...
to both families involved.
Only then will the relationship mean anything.
Mom, we agreed to take it slow!
Okay, fine.
Se Ryeon, wait a second.
It's about the club where you two first met.
Is it called Central Park?
Mom, what are you talking about?
Oh, it's nothing. Hang up and have fun.
I see they're still going strong.
My goodness. Do I already need another brow lift?
Mr. Park, can you take me to my plastic surgeon?
- Of course. - Why does my face keep sagging?
How annoying.
Unbelievable.
You already bought something similar.
That's not it.
It reminded me of my mom.
This is her style, you see.
Then buy it.
No, maybe next time. I was only looking.
Why would you say that?
What's the matter with you?
Have you still not grasped the concept?
Who does my money belong to now?
My money is yours.
And your mom is like a mother to me too.
Se Ryeon.
Must you keep making me cry inside?
You're driving me crazy.
Whatever.
I must truly be in love with you.
My gosh. I love you so much.
What's this smell?
It smells like ramyeon.
That's odd. Why do I smell ramyeon here?
It really is ramyeon.
Is Mr. Park making himself a bowl?
Mr. Park, are you inside?
Darn, that's hot.
No, wait.
Mr. Park left this morning to drive Ms. Wang around,
so no one should be home.
So why do I smell ramyeon from an empty house?
Could someone be inside?
What on earth? Could it be a ghost?
My gosh!
Gosh, that darn wench.
Did she react like that after smelling the ramyeon?
I almost had a heart attack.
Could I get caught for this?
Ms. Park!
What is it? Is something wrong?
Ms. Park, you won't believe this. It's about the annex out back.
The annex? What about it?
Mr. Park left this morning to drive Ms. Wang around,
so no one should be home.
But I smelled ramyeon coming from the unit!
Ramyeon? That's absurd.
Tell me about it.
It's adjacent to a street,
so why would I smell ramyeon coming from the unit?
You have no idea how freaked out I am.
Ms. Park, come with me.
Come on.
Ms. Park, you smell the ramyeon too, right?
I'm not sure.
I think I can smell it,
but then again I don't.
It smells less than before.
But this is what cooked ramyeon smells like.
I don't think so.
Ms. Park, is your nose clogged? Do you have rhinitis?
Is someone in there?
Ms. Park,
do you think...
we could have a squatter like the ones you see in the movies?
Of course not.
Right? Mr. Park would never.
Could a ghost have made the ramyeon then?
It's not like I can go in and check. This is just frustrating!
Dan Dan will throw a fit over this.
That darn flirt has the most sensitive sense of smell.
How on earth did she smell the ramyeon I cooked?
Mom, you almost got caught!
How can you cook ramyeon...
when Dad isn't home with you?
I knew it.
How clueless can you be?
What if you get caught? What would they think of Dad?
If you're only going to be a nuisance,
go and stay at a sauna instead.
Why are you hiding there anyway, like some criminal?
What? A criminal?
How dare she?
How dare you write such a thing? A criminal?
That's not what one should say to her mother.
I'm not hiding there because I want to.
It's because I have nowhere to go.
Of course you do.
You can stay at a sauna.
How can you be so clueless...
as to cook ramyeon that you can smell a mile away?
Dad has it rough enough, but all you do...
is make life harder for him.
What? How dare you?
What did I do that was so wrong?
I cooked some ramyeon because I was hungry.
What's so wrong with that?
The ramyeon isn't the issue here.
Don't you feel bad for Dad?
He works his fingers to the bone for this family.
If you had a conscience,
you'd at least get a job washing dishes at a diner.
I may be a mother who brings trouble,
but you wouldn't act this way if you thought of me as your mom.
You're being this way...
because Gun and Dae Bum lost the money our family had.
It's true that Gun and Dae Bum made us lose our apartment...
and the deposit we had.
But it wasn't on purpose. It wasn't their intention.
Your Uncle Gun doted on you...
and gave you piggyback rides whenever he could.
Can you imagine how hard it must be for him and your grandmother...
since they had to run away after losing all the money?
I don't even know if they're still alive.
It breaks my heart just to think about them.
I don't care about any of that.
Just don't make it harder on Dad.
This is what I get for raising her?
Remember this.
You will regret what you just said, you darn brat.
Don't you dare call me your mother ever again!
Dae Bum...
Why did you have to cook ramyeon there?
She must've been worried...
that you'd get caught and be accused of being scammers.
You wouldn't have yelled at me like she did though.
"Be careful next time."
"If you're hungry, I'd gladly buy you a meal."
That's what you would've said.
That's true.
My dear Yeon Sil. You're the love of my life, Mom.
You know how Dan Dan can be a brat sometimes.
Right?
She's not some ordinary brat. She's the worst!
Hold on.
- Hey. - What?
Dae Bum, these look like clothes from designer brands.
They look high-end.
These dress shoes are from the G brand!
They don't seem fake.
You look different today.
It's like you're a son from a wealthy family.
Is that so? Do I make them look good?
Yes, I guess it's nice to see you this way.
But with what money did you buy these?
What's going on?
Did you perhaps...
Don't worry, Mom. I didn't do anything illegal.
Are you sure? You're not doing anything shady?
Mom, what do you take me for?
Right, of course.
No matter how tough life is,
you should always act in good faith.
"You shouldn't make others shed tears of blood."
You've been drilling that into me from a young age.
Then how is this possible? Did you win the lottery?
What?
Yes, something like that.
And what would that be?
Mom, I'll let you know some other time.
Anyway, this is for you. Clothes and a purse.
This is a jacket for Dad.
And a sweater for Dan Dan.
My gosh.
You shouldn't have.
Why did you buy something for Dan Dan too?
That darn brat.
Mom, don't be like that.
Think of the mess we made.
I see you bought something in the color she likes.
Awesome, right?
Goodness, my sweet boy.
- Of course, I'm your boy. - My dear son.
Honey.
Soo Chul?
Where on earth were you...
and why weren't you answering your phone?
Honey.
Were you worried when I was gone?
I didn't know that my phone ran out of battery.
This isn't your house, you know. You can't come and go as you please.
I had a reason to go out today.
What's all this?
This? Let's get inside first.
What? What's going on?
I like toy trains the most in the world.
It's true that Gun and Dae Bum made us lose our apartment...
and the deposit we had.
But it wasn't on purpose. It wasn't their intention.
Remember this.
You will regret what you just said, you darn brat.
Don't you dare call me your mother ever again!
Dan Dan, can I see you for a moment?
I heard what happened today.
Your mom...
almost got caught eating ramyeon.
You two even met outside and had a fight.
Yes.
I'm nervous about Mom secretly staying in your room.
And I feel bad that we have to act as if we're strangers.
I'll quit as soon as they find a new driver.
Just hang in there until then.
Your mom said she would be more careful.
Okay.
Make sure she does be careful.
Oh, right.
Here.
What is this?
Your mom met Dae Bum today.
He bought this for you.
Where did he get the money to buy something like this?
Dad, is Dae Bum causing some kind of trouble again?
Dan Dan.
You can't jump to conclusions...
and speak ill of your brother like that.
Dae Bum isn't the kind of person who'd cause trouble.
I didn't raise you guys that way.
Okay?
Okay.
Go inside before someone sees us.
Dad, you go in first.
Okay.
This is an expensive brand.
How could he afford this?
Hi.
How have you been?
Jin Sang Gu. How are you here?
It's been a while, but you recognize me.
Well, of course you should recognize your own hubby.
How dare you come here?
Get out of here immediately.
I can't stand the sight of you even for a second.
- Wait, Sa Ra. - Let go of me.
Don't be like this, for old times' sake.
I'm just here to ask you something.
Let go of me.
All right.
Fine.
Hey, Sa Ra. Let me ask you one thing.
You had a baby six years ago. He's my son, isn't he?
Jin Sang Gu's son.
- What? - Were you...
Were you pregnant when we broke up?
You should've said so.
Why did you have a baby without telling me?
You crazy jerk.
Gosh, Sa Ra. Your slap still has some heat to it.
Hey, Sa Ra. If you keep treating me this way,
you'll get in trouble.
Tell me before you go.
Is he my son? Just tell me that.
Apparently, someone saw you at the hospital, almost due.
Hey, Jin Sang Gu.
You married another woman without telling me.
Why would I like a shameless jerk like you?
Why would I get pregnant and have your baby?
Do you think I'm a fool? Am I a moron?
Why would I do something crazy like that?
So you're saying no, right?
Do you mean my friend was mistaken?
Do you want me to call your wife here?
Will you get lost then?
Fine. I'm on my way.
Okay, then.
I'll take it we don't have a child between us.
Sa Ra.
Mom.
Who is that guy?
And what was he talking about?
It's not true, is it?
No. He was talking nonsense.
So you don't need to worry.
Hey. Wait, Sa Ra.
Sa Ra, open this door.
I need to talk to you, Sa Ra.
Mom. It's nothing. What you heard is not true.
So don't worry about it.
Sa Ra!
Sa Ra, open it.
We need to talk.
Here is today's report.
Jae Ni was at school from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.,
and at private academies from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m.
At her English academy,
she made a new friend named Heo Won Seo.
Se Chan came home two hours late today.
He told me beforehand that he had a classmate's birthday party to attend.
And Se Jong had well-balanced meals...
both at the kindergarten and at home.
But on his way home from kindergarten,
I bought him some junk food called Opollo.
All his friends were eating it,
so I had no choice but to buy it.
I'm really sorry.
All right. Thank you.
I'd like him to refrain from eating junk food though.
If the same thing happens again, tell me in advance.
Yes, I will. Goodnight, sir.
Goodnight, Ms. Park.
Today was another good day.
(Hospital Hours)
Please.
Please help me.
(Baby Box)
Mom.
Sa Ra. Was that when it happened?
Did you suddenly barge in here to talk nonsense?
I'm going to sleep. Get out.
Six years ago.
You told me...
You told me that you were going on a trip,
and you didn't come back for over six months.
Was that then?
Did you have a baby on your own?
Will you not tell me the truth?
Where's the baby?
Did you get rid of it? Is it dead?
Will you stop...
What baby are you talking about?
You're wrong. Nothing of the sort happened!
What are you talking about? Get out!
I remember seeing you...
holding a newborn baby's blanket.
I saw you holding a baby blanket and crying your eyes out.
That's not something a childless woman would do.
Where's that baby blanket?
Where is it? What did you do with it?
There's no such thing, Mom.
Will you stop it and get out?
Let go!
Stop it, Mom. No, don't touch that!
What...
Who is this?
It's...
It's that family's youngest kid.
It's Se Jong.
Why...
Why do you have so many photos of him?
You... Are you saying...
Yes.
It's Se Jong.
Se Jong...
Se Jong is my son.
Mom...
My gosh.
My gosh...
My goodness.
What is happening?
My gosh...
Goodness.
Oh, dear...
Oh, my gosh...
How could this be?
Let's talk.
I'm late for work.
Forget about work.
That guy from last night. What does he do?
Does he have some money?
That punk...
is married and penniless.
Don't talk about him around me.
How could you have a thing with a fool like that?
Are you crazy?
Do you think I knew about it then?
I didn't know about him.
You should've told me about it!
Why didn't you?
I was afraid you'd do something drastic.
You were all I had left and...
So what?
Was the reason...
you worked so hard for Chairman Lee and his family...
for Se Jong's sake?
So you could be his mom?
I have to go.
I didn't know about that at all.
What do you mean?
Se Jong's grandmother took him?
Yes. Se Jong greeted her and called her "Grandma."
I haven't been working here that long,
so I really thought she was his grandmother.
Was it Ms. Wang?
It can't be. She went out with Dad.
Hello, Ms. Park.
We have a problem, Ms. Cho.
I'm here to pick up Se Jong,
and some grandmother took him already.
What do you mean?
What grandmother?
That's why I called you.
Ms. Wang left with Da...
She went out with Mr. Park,
and she's the only grandmother.
Does Se Jong have another grandmother?
Someone he'd call Grandma?
No.
What should we do, then?
Did my mom take him?
Ms. Cho, I have to do something.
I'll call the chairman first,
then call the police too.
No, Ms. Park. Just a moment.
I'll ask around and call you back.
Give me a moment. Just a few minutes.
Mom.
Hi, Sa Ra. I'm with Se Jong.
Why don't you join us?
I'll tell you where we are.
Okay. Fine.
My gosh.
Ms. Park, it's me.
Don't worry about Se Jong.
Really?
Then you know who took Se Jong?
Yes. It was my mom.
Pardon?
Your mother?
So don't worry and come back here.
I'll explain later.
Ms. Cho. What should I tell the chairman?
I should tell him something.
We can talk about that later too.
Okay, Ms. Park?
Okay. I understand.
My goodness.
Eat this too.
Grandma.
Are you crying?
No, Se Jong.
I guess something must've gotten into my eyes.
Will you have a look?
- Grandma. - What is it?
I want to go home.
Already?
But...
Someone you like a lot will be here soon.
Let's wait a little bit longer.
Sa Ra.
Se Jong.
Ms. Cho. I want to go home.
"Ms. Cho?"
My goodness.
Okay. Let's go.
Wait.
He hasn't finished his ice cream.
I've had enough. I might get an upset stomach.
Wait. What about the rest of this?
Sa Ra! Hold on.
I thought she came to pick me up instead of Ms. Park.
She wanted to walk you home today,
but then suddenly remembered all the ice cream coupons she had.
It made her want to buy you some ice cream.
Because you're such a sweet boy.
Oh, I see.
Right.
Come in.
Ms. Park.
Where's Se Jong?
I just brought him back and he's washing his hands.
Could we sit down for a bit?
Sure.
My mom only picked up Se Jong today...
because she saw him at the kindergarten...
as she was passing by.
She was so happy to see him that...
Anyway, she couldn't leave without buying him some ice cream first.
She has always adored him, you see.
Oh, I see.
That being said, Ms. Park,
I'd appreciate it...
if you didn't report this to the chairman.
I'll tell him myself.
Words can be taken the wrong way...
when they're delivered through a third party.
This only happened...
because my mom adores Se Jong.
Of course. I hear you.
Mom, are you insane?
How can you be such a fool?
What's so wrong...
about buying ice cream for my own grandson?
You have no right...
to raise your voice at me.
This is exactly why I kept it from you.
Mom,
even when I wanted to see him...
or touch him,
I held back the urges over and over again.
Mom, please. I had to hold back...
for a total of six years.
Six years!
Then why did you do it? Why?
If you don't hold yourself back right now,
you'll ruin everything.
I'll ruin everything?
All right. I won't do anything like this again.
I won't go to see him.
My poor daughter.
You poor thing.
Here is today's report.
Jae Ni and Se Chan returned home from school...
and after receiving extra classes at the same hour.
Meanwhile, Ms. Cho picked Se Jong up today.
Jae Ni and Se Chan finished their homework.
You should also know that Jae Ni is laughing a lot more these days.
Good job, Ms. Park. Have a good night.
Got it. Good night to you too, Mr. Lee.
Hey, Anna.
What? You're coming to Korea?
When?
Got it. I'll have the guest room ready.
Ms. Yeoju.
Yes, Mr. Lee. Can I get you anything?
No, it's not that.
An important guest will be coming by tomorrow,
so please prepare some food...
and make up the guest room.
The guest room?
Goodness. Could it be Ms. Anna Kim...
who was here last time?
How did you know that?
How could I not...
when it's been a while since I've seen you beaming?
Well, please get on it.
Oh, and don't forget the soy sauce marinated shrimp.
Of course. Don't you worry.
I'll have Mr. Park head to the fish market...
to buy the freshest shrimps early in the morning.
- I leave it in your hands then. - Sure thing.
It's been a while since Ms. Kim came to visit.
What else should I make for her?
Ms. Yeoju, I see you're still awake.
A dear guest is arriving from the States tomorrow.
I was deciding on what else I should make.
A dear guest?
She's someone who is like a sister to Mr. Lee.
She's the daughter of the nanny who raised him...
and owns a big share of the company.
Mr. Lee cares for her so much, you see.
Not even Ms. Wang can say anything about it.
Oh, I see.
- Ji Young! - I feel like I'm being suffocated.
I've been slowly dying.
This isn't what life should be.
This is a cave without the slightest of light!
Just consider me dead.
Ji Young, no. No!
No!
Honey, what's wrong? Was it a nightmare?
What?
Oh, it was nothing.
What do you mean it was nothing?
Gosh, you're sweating.
Worrying about leaving this place...
made you have nightmares.
I've been having the weirdest dreams as well.
Hello, were you perhaps sent by Chairman Lee Young Guk?
Yes, that's right. Are you Ms. Anna Kim?
That's right. I'm Anna...
Ms. Kim!
(Young Lady and Gentleman)
He looks so much like Soo Chul.
She's our tutor.
Hello, it's nice to meet you.
As if I have any right...
to think about Soo Chul and Dan Dan.
- Jae Ni! - Have you been...
checking up on me?
That's rich coming from you when you're out with a boy.
Mr. Lee, you are insufferable.
What?
Isn't that Chairman Lee?
Who's that darn wench?
Chairman Lee and Ms. Park?
My son is here to pick up his girlfriend and me.
They will all be in shock...
once they find out that I'm Se Ryeon's mom.
Yeon Sil lives in this mansion? How can this be?
Isn't this our back gate?
Why do I hear something at this hour?
- Who's there? - My gosh!
Ms. Park?
