MAY THE DECEASED REST IN PEACE

[Nam-sik] I am so sorry.

I know there's nothing I can say
that will make you forgive me.

This decision

will not excuse what I did,

but someday I hope you'll understand
that I've accepted it.

Fully believing it is my fate.

I want to ask you for forgiveness
in my own way.

I'm leaving this world
holding the happy days

with you and Min-ji

close to my heart.

I'm sorry that I won't be able
to care for you until the end.

Please take care of our Min-ji.

[sobbing]

[sobbing continues]

[breathing heavily]

Bring my husband back!

Tell them you set him up!

Tell them the truth now! [whimpers]

Let me go!

Bring him back to me now!

Let go of me!

[Hye-seung] A person who doesn't
have anything left to lose,

has no fear.

[theme music playing]

[theme music ends]

[Hye-seung gasps]

[dramatic music playing]

Wait, Director.

Please just leave it there, Miss.

It's all right.

[Hye-seung breathes shakily]

Are you okay? Are you hurt at all?

-No.
-You're here for a consultation, right?

Please come and greet our customer.

Well, then.

HIGH QUALITY MARRIAGE

-[female employee 1] Are you all right?
-[breathing shakily]

You seem to have already made
quite the entrance here.

[chuckles]

Oh, it's okay. Don't worry.

Try to enjoy a warm cup of tea
and forget all about that.

Trust me, you've made a great decision.

Your mother asked me to go
and take especially good care of you.

Ms. Seo?

[chuckles] Is everything okay?

-Yeah.
-All right.

Let's try to relax and move on.

Oh!

Your education is quite impeccable.

You were a university lecturer,

now a teacher at a private school
with a daughter in middle school.

And your husband used to be an executive.

Your mother said
that he had recently passed away.

He must've been really sick. I'm so sorry.

-[sighs]
-[dramatic music playing]

[Yoo-hui] Listen, your husband

is a disgusting rapist.

Jin Yoo-hui has tricked me

into covering up her tracks.

She used me.

[Yoo-sun] Ms. Jin Yoo-hui, right?

So that woman back there.

What kind of man does a woman like that
plan on trying to marry?

Ah!

[chuckles]

I'm sorry, but we value privacy here.

Besides, she's not one of my accounts,
so I don't know.

You know, in your case,
while you are quite beautiful,

you're older than our usual clients,
and you have a child as well.

It makes your options less than ideal.

Would you take a look at this?

Here is our member grading system.

Our male members our divided
into different levels

based on their assets, education,
and occupation.

Black Level members have assets
greater than 100 billion won.

Secret Level owns
between 50 to 100 billion.

Frankly, both of these levels
are a bit out of your range.

Normally, you can expect to be matched
with someone around the Platinum Level.

That said,
if you add another 20 million won

as an investment to upgrade yourself
to the Diamond Level,

you can meet wealthy men
with 50 billion won or more.

Did the woman earlier?

Does she have a higher ranking than me?

Regardless of how she has lived her life

or who she really is.

Oh, she…

Do you know her?

[exhales]

Ms. Seo.

You're pretty determined
to hold such a grudge.

I guess you're trying
to dig up some dirt on me?

Anyway,

why are you here?

No way. It hasn't been that long
since your husband died.

Shouldn't you be thinking
about your daughter?

If people like you can just come here,
why wouldn't I be able to do the same?

-Say it again?
-[Hye-seung scoffs]

This place can overlook your past
as long as you pay enough. Is that right?

Look, I'm the one who should be upset.

But it's not like an apology
would be enough for me anyways.

He was guilty of a lot of bad things.

He got his money stolen
because he was conned by a woman like you,

and he lied to cover up your corruption.

And even stupidly abandoned his family.

That man has paid the price for his sins.

I guess that you came here
to meet a good man and live a happy life.

Do the people here know
about what you did in the past?

-[dramatic sting]
-Ms. Seo.

You shouldn't try to drag my name
through the mud. It won't end well.

Hmm?

To be clear, this is a warning.

[dramatic sting]

[tense music playing]

[engine roaring]

[tires screech]

[breathing shakily]

[engine accelerating]

[tires screech]

[breathes deeply]

[Nam-sik] Jin Yoo-hui.

How could you do this to me?

I covered up for all the bribes you took
and even invested my stock with you.

Didn't you want to live together?

You said that you loved me.

So how can you call that rape, huh?

Because you forced me
by pulling your rank, remember that?

You threatened me with it.

[Nam-sik sighs]

Never forget what you just said to me.

I will remember

until the very end too.

[scoffs]

-[breathing heavily]
-[dramatic music playing]

You died because of that?

[cell phone chimes]

Hey there. It's me.

Was everything okay after I left?

Oh.

That's a relief.

Oh, by the way, that woman from earlier,
she seemed awfully familiar.

Did she happen to say
anything strange at all about me?

-Or anything like that?
-[female employee 2] I'm not sure.

The executive director
handled her consultation,

but I'll check in with her.

Oh. Thanks.

[dramatic sting]

[phone line ends]

[Yeong-seo] Of all the places to go.

That bitch is crazy.

All I could do was call her out.

I don't know how to hurt her
like she did to me.

That marriage agency will try
to get her married no matter what.

They probably have quite a few members
with questionable pasts.

I don't think telling them the truth
will really do anything.

What power does the truth have
in this case?

But you can't let her
just get away with it.

[sighs]

Ms. Hwang, um, do you remember
that woman who broke that vase?

Oh, Ms. Seo Hye-seung?

Did she happen to say anything
about Ms. Jin Yoo-hui?

No. Why?

Did the woman earlier…
Does she have a higher ranking than me?

Now that I think about it…

What?

Do they actually know each other?

[inhales]

[female employee 2] I checked
with the director. She didn't know you.

The woman didn't mention anything.

Really?

[sighs]

Well, I'll be seeking legal action
if anything happens.

So make sure you're certain.

Yeah. There's no reason to worry.

Bye.

It seems she might sue
if things get messy.

Who really cares?
Just say you saw nothing.

To Ms. Choi as well?

[gentle music playing]

["Don Pasquale: 'Povero Ernesto'" playing]

-[man 1] Isn't this place awesome?
-Wow, it looks great.

-How about we start eating?
-Yeah.

-Ah, thank you, thank you.
-Mmm.

-[Ho-chan] Ah! This is incredible.
-Mmm!

When there's about 70 percent marbling
it is considered quality meat,

but this sirloin surpasses that

with 90 percent from the top one percent
of Korean cow.

Yeah? I heard this place was booked
until the end of this year.

Yes, we've been fully booked all year.

Who cares?

I reserved a private room
so that we can come whenever, you know?

[scoffs] For real?

Hey there!
Did you really start the feast without me?

-Oh, game boy!
-Hyung-ju.

Game boy, hey, you hungry?

Try a piece now. This godly cut here.

Thanks, but I already ate.

Besides, I'm here for the water.

All right, water it is.

-Sung-jae, you wanted to talk?
-Mmm.

Let's talk outside.

-Outside? Let's go.
-Yeah.

-Where are you going?
-Be right back.

[Hyung-ju] Maybe Jin-su
actually has more money than us.

[both chuckle]

What did you want to talk about?

-Hyung-ju.
-[lighter flicks]

What would you say to working together?

What do you mean?

My Lionsoft and your Hibull.

-My company wants to invest.
-[sighs]

Why would you even think
I would consider that?

Think about it.

When we were both studying in grad school,
we were working on Hibull together.

We only split up
because we had different goals.

PC games versus mobile games.

Right now, our two platforms
are dividing up the market.

That would mean our agreement
is totally meaningless.

The Chinese market
has become so massive too.

If we want to survive
in the international market,

our companies will have to compete.
Don't you think?

But I'm telling you,

if we join forces,

we'll be able to hold our own
In that gigantic pool.

How though?

You know, they're saying Action Blitz
is going on the market.

-Wouldn't you want a piece?
-[chuckles]

Yeah, they're dinosaurs in the industry.
Elephants can't swallow a dinosaur.

That is why

I want the elephants
to band together to make a herd.

So then we'll have solid ground
to acquire them.

[sighs] You can't be serious.

Don't worry.

Hibull would still
be under your management, of course.

Don't you trust me?

[breathes deeply]

Action Blitz, huh?

[exhales]

If you have a detailed game plan prepared,
I'll take a look at it.

That's all I'm asking for.
Let's go back inside.

-So is that steak as godly as he says?
-Mm-hmm.

Absolutely.

Sorry.

Uh, how much was…

That's a huge difference.
Can't you just give me a little more time?

I promise I'll pay more next month.

[woman] Aren't you familiar
with a thing called market price?

This rent has been so cheap in comparison.

Even if I raise the rent,

it would still be less expensive
than anywhere else around here.

I'm really sorry,
but if you could just let this slide--

This was just a courtesy call.

Excuse me, ma'am.

TRUTH OF THE GOSPEL CHURCH
MINISTER YANG JUN-MOK

My name is Choi Yoo-sun.

-Cha Yong-hwan's--
-Is my father-in-law coming, then?

Your father had an urgent meeting come up.

He asked me to come
and express his sincerest condolences.

I understand, Ms. Choi.

[exhales]

Thank you for coming.

Yeah.

How is Seok-jin?

Did you remember to tell him
that I miss seeing my son?

Yes, but, of course.

He just seemed to be pretty busy today.

I'm just glad
that he was able to be there in time

as she passed away.

[female employee 1] I've narrowed it down
to five people.

Isn't she the daughter
of the Minister of Justice?

Yes. I chose them for looks and education
rather than will.

That's very good to hear.

She's a doctor. That's good.

JUNG MI-JIN
NOVEMBER 1990, 32 YEARS OLD

MOTHER: GO AE-RAN
(SECRETARY OF CIVIL AFFAIRS)

She doesn't have a father listed.

But her mother is a government official
at the Blue House.

-[Yoo-sun] Baek Jae-hui, the news anchor?
-Baek Jae-hui would be getting remarried,

however, she has no children
and is quite well known.

Her looks rank her high as well,
so her chances of success are high.

Be careful with this one.
If they end up marrying,

wouldn't that bring
a lot of media attention?

What do you think about Ms. Jin Yoo-hui?

While her family is ordinary,

she's a lawyer, very attractive,
and never married.

I strongly believe she has a high chance
because she's just so charming.

A Secret Level
whose parents have been divorced.

Her mother also runs a bakery.

You certainly made sure
to be thorough with this one, Ms. Kim.

Incredible. Well done.

Thanks.

Ms. Hwang.

He's a very important member.

Please make any needed changes
and take extra care of him.

Yes, of course.

Excellent job, everyone.

Hello. Welcome to Rex.

Hey.

This is for last time.

It's probably not enough,
but it's a start.

Oh.

Oh thanks. I'll make sure
that finances receives this.

Also…

I want to change my account manager
to Ms. Kim Ji-sun if I can do so.

Sure, I can see if it's possible.

Excuse me.

Mrs. Kim is currently at her limit

and is unable
to take on new members right now.

However, we can switch you
to a different manager if you would like.

Would you like us to do that?

Oh no. That's all right.

[dramatic music playing]

THURSDAY
SPEECH BY CEO CHOI YOO-SUN

Did they make a decision?

I promise that I've been trying my best,
but I think it's going to be difficult.

What's the problem then?

Ms. Choi prefers members
who come from good families.

Oh also,

Ms. Seo Hye-seung came in
asking to switch her manager.

-But why?
-I don't know.

I do know that she specifically asked
for me to be her manager.

So what? So then, what did you do?

Well, since I wasn't available,
she kept her original manager.

[dramatic music continues]

Could you arrange me a meeting
with Ms. Choi?

I'm sorry, but she doesn't meet
with anyone unless they're Black Level.

And so what?

I'm asking you to find a way
to meet with her.

"Life is a series of choices."

Many of you
have probably heard this too often.

Marriage, though, is also a choice.

And there are always consequences
that follow those choices,

whether it's a success or a failure.

Today, I want to talk about failure
and what it looks like in a marriage.

Let me ask you,

is divorce truly considered a failure?

Or is staying in a terrible marriage
that is filled with regret

the true failure here?

Divorce shouldn't be seen as a failure.

Divorce is an opportunity.

An opportunity that leads to victory.

An opportunity that

can lead to a successful marriage
with someone else.

It's not a marriage based on
the naivety of love,

but rather a business-minded choice
setting up the second stage of your life.

Marriage is a business decision first.

-[female member 1] Ms. Choi.
-Yes, please?

So are you telling us that money

is more important than love
when you remarry?

[female member 2]
How's that right?

Shouldn't love always come first,
even if it's a second marriage?

Love. Yes, it is important.

Very important, in fact.

But instead of trying to change someone
to fit your standards,

you should look for someone
who already fits that criteria.

That is the smartest possible choice
you can make.

And the only path towards
a successful union.

[all applauding]

SUCCESSFUL REMARRIAGE, VICTORY IN LIFE

Oh.

I'm really sorry about last time.

They told me that you just reimbursed us.
Thank you for that.

I only gave what I could.

I also heard
you cancelled your request for a refund.

That was a wise decision.

I guarantee that you will find
someone great through Rex.

Well then, goodbye.

[Hye-seung] Ms. Choi.

There's someone
that I want to triumph over.

So much that I want to kill them.
I hate her to death.

What can I do?

You have to become a woman who is…

who is feared.

How do I make them afraid?

With money.

Become wealthy.

But what If I can't do that?

Then try to show them love.

Keep an eye on that desire of yours.

It's greedy.

Until next time.

[Yoo-hui] Ms. Choi?

How can I help you?

If you have the time, by any chance,
could I talk to you for a second?

I'm really sorry,
but I'm needed somewhere else right now.

If you need anything,

please bring it up
with the manager of your account.

I'm seeing you a lot.

What was it you were discussing
with Ms. Choi just then?

Is there a reason I should be reporting
my conversations to you?

You work at the university, don't you?

How would the school react
if they found out about…

what your husband has done?

[dramatic sting]

[Hye-seung sighs]

Why don't we try to avoid any bloodshed?

[dramatic sting]

When he first told me
that he was leaving me for you…

I thought he was pathetic.

But I had to let him go,

especially if that's how he really felt.

But how…

can it be that he fell in love
with someone like you?

[chuckles]

In love?

He only loved my body.

Kang Nam-sik was a dirty rapist.

So you say a criminal

really jumped on their own

all while he was trembling in fear?

[dramatic sting]

[dramatic music playing]

PUBLICATION CELEBRATION

[reporter 1] Being considered
as a presidential candidate,

the actions
of ex-congressman Son Pil-young

are drawing much attention
to this election.

Many major figures in the ruling party
are in attendance at the publication event

for Mr. Son's
recently released book of poetry.

Some speculate that this may be a sign

that Mr. Son has plans
to return to politics.

[Pil-young] Thank you. [chuckles]

Good afternoon, Mr. Son.

Chairman Cha sends me
with his warmest congratulations.

Ah, ah, yes, yes!

I'm Yoo-sun, his wife.

Oh, of course.

How has the Chairman been doing?

He's good. About the same as usual.

Good, I hope he gets well soon.

Please give him all my best, will you?

Mmm.

Welcome, director.

-I apologize.
-[director] No, no.

Congratulations, Mr. Son.

Oh! Look who it is!

If it isn't the Ms. Choi.

Have you been well, Congressman?

Ah, the same as always.

Is there any way that my daughter
could be connected to a dynasty?

What would I need to make it happen?

Should I send her to some kind
of Ivy League school to get a master's?

An Ivy League education would not matter,
and neither would getting her master's.

What do you mean?

The mother-in-laws of those families

don't like it when their daughter-in-laws
are better educated than they are.

They would rather have girls
who will marry young

and who they can later send
to study abroad.

Oh.

Is there anything I can do?

You can try investing
in her physical appearance.

Oh.

Plastic surgery or skin care.

Pilates or ballet.

It would certainly give you an advantage
if you focus more on her looks.

Ah, now I see. [chuckles]

-[chuckles sarcastically]
-[congressman exhales]

-[man] Congratulations, Mr. Son!
-Looks like the big man's here.

[man] The President wanted me
to express how touched he was

after reading your book of poetry.
It was very moving.

[congressman] Big man on campus.

Isn't that Park Geon-yeong,
the secretary for civil affairs?

No, not Mr. Park.
It's the one next to him,

Go Ae-ran,
the senior secretary for civil affairs.

Some people say
that she's Mr. Son's right hand.

Apparently, she and his wife
are from the same hometown.

[indistinct chatter]

[gentle music playing]

[sighs]

So you say a criminal
really jumped on their own

all while he was trembling in fear?

[news anchor] Ex-Congressman Son
continues to refuse comments

on his possible return to politics,

saying he wants to focus
on taking care of his wife, Choi.

How can you ask me about politics?
Not while my wife is so sick.

As of right now, I have no plans for it.

[reporter 1] Mr. Son, give us a comment.

Any comment on the rumor of you running
for the presidential election?

-Please tell us about your plans.
-[reporter 2] Do you have any comments?

[Pil-young] Publishing the book
was pretty smart.

It made me happy.

[Ae-ran chuckles] Well,
it was pretty well written.

[Pil-young] It's all thanks
to you, Ae-ran.

You're the one who inspired me.

That's really nice to hear.

[chuckles]

I've always been grateful for you, Ae-ran.

[heart monitor beeping]

[Pil-young on TV] My wife
has been very sick.

While I have been involved with politics
for nearly 30 years now…

When he becomes powerful,
does that mean we'll be powerful as well?

[Pil-young] Truly belong to my…

And that's how I'll get my revenge.

But will that be enough, though?

Your revenge should be harsher.

And that's why you must marry
a Black Level member.

I'll seize the power,
and you'll seize the money.

That's how we regain control
of the Sangwon Group.

[Pil-young] It is possible to…

So you said the first match
has yet to be chosen?

Yeah, but I'm at a disadvantage.

They'll probably want
to prioritize choosing someone

who still has both of their parents.

-[Pil-young] Express well wishes…
-[sighs]

I spent most of my life trying…

[inhales]

…to fill a hole left by your father.

[Mi-jin] Even with that,

I need to be the first
to match with a Black Level.

If I can make that happen,
then I'm confident he will fall in love.

[chuckles]

Did you meet with Son Pil-young?

What did he say?

He wanted to know how you were doing.

I didn't get to talk to him much.

The line was really long.
He's really popular nowadays.

Did he still remember me?

Have you ever met a politician

who forgets
where they got their money from?

[both chuckle]

He says that he's not running for office,

but he continues to host
these publication events.

Well, the election is coming up soon.

There's definitely no better way than that
to legally accept someone's cash.

-[knocks on door]
-[door opens]

[housekeeper] Sir,
there's a guest here for you.

So. Did you give your mother
a proper send off?

Yes.

You did good.

How's your health going?

Well, my body's
been breaking down here and there, but…

it wouldn't be strange
even if I dropped dead tomorrow.

You shouldn't say that.

Hey, Father.

I'll move back in with you.

[Yong-hwan] My.
Have you finally matured enough?

Now that you're older, are you starting
to understand how the world works?

[chuckles]

He says that he's moving back
to live with us. [chuckles]

That's good to hear.

He has been thinking a lot
about his son lately.

But do you think
you'll be comfortable with us?

It can't be ideal
to come back living with us

when you've been on your own for so long.

That's really all right.

Since my mother is gone,

I should stay by my father's side.

[Yong-hwan] Oh my.
That's perfect. Thank you.

It feels like things are finally heading
in the right direction. [chuckles]

[chuckles]

[cell phone vibrating]

Yes, who is this?

Yes, that's correct.

[suspenseful music playing]

Thank you for taking the time to meet me.

My name is Go Ae-ran.

[exhales] This is a good plot of land.

Since you work at the Blue House,

I assume it's easy
to run background checks.

Despite it being restricted,

the air is fresh here,
and it's close to Seoul.

It would be really nice to develop this
into a residential neighborhood.

Do you know why I'm here?

Do you?

Your daughter is as beautiful
as her mother is fearless.

I can get rid of the restrictions.

[dramatic sting]

Just support my daughter.

I'm aware that the secretary's power
has quite a bit of authority,

but a huge development project

would oppose the current
administrations policies, wouldn't it?

[chuckles]

[Ae-ran] The next regime
will be different.

I can promise you that.

Congressman Son Pil-young
has really taken a liking to Mi-jin.

She's like a daughter.

[dramatic music playing]

[cell phone vibrating]

INCOMING CALL
DEPARTMENT CHAIR

Hello, Professor.

Hey, Ms. Seo.
Do you have some time today?

[knocks on door]

Yes?

-Hi.
-Welcome, Ms. Seo. Please take a seat.

[chuckles]

[sighs] Okay.

[exhales]

Did you get home safely?

Yes.

I apologize.
I had way too much to drink.

[chuckles] And said a lot
of unusual things that day, right?

[chuckles]

I have good news for you.

There's an open adjunct position.
You can start next semester.

-Professor, I won't.
-And I told you I would do it for you.

I'm not the type of person
who can go back easily on his word.

[chuckles]

Thank you so much, Professor.

Just recently, I snagged a project funded
by a corporation.

So I want you to lead students
on the upcoming project

in addition of giving lectures
to graduate students.

Ah, yes, sir.

-[knocks on door]
-Yeah?

Excuse me.

[professor] I almost forgot!
Welcome, Ms. Jin.

[chuckles]

Ah, this is Professor Seo Hye-seung.

She will be leading the project
with the grad students.

Oh hey. It's really nice to meet you.

I'm Jin Yoo-hui.

[professor] It's actually
because of Ms. Jin here

that our department managed to secure
the project you'll be working on.

I've been getting stressed out
about my performance with the school.

Oh, it's no worry.

Honestly, we should be
the ones thanking you for helping out.

-[professor chuckles]
-[cell phone vibrating]

Hmm?

Oh hello, sir.

Oh what? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Oh good. Yeah.

[door opens, shuts]

[tense music playing]

We meet again, Professor Seo.

Well, it seems you've done
a lot of research on me.

What do you mean research?

I was only trying to help you out.

I just happened to have a connection
in the company, and since I know you,

I figured it would be nice
if you were the one who got the job.

But why?

From what I heard, you were left sobbing

after your last company
fired you without pay.

Was it enough to live comfortably?

Enough to misinterpret
someone's kindness?

[Hye-seung scoffs]

Kindness?

I don't think you have anything like that
inside of you.

[scoffs]

It seems that I'm a big enough challenge
that you need to threaten me like this.

[Yoo-hui chuckles]

I don't have any trouble stopping
someone like you from getting in my way.

My guess is that you're also trying
to find a proper husband

for a lady like yourself.

[scoffs]

But I wonder just how impressive
the man is that you're targeting.

Someone from a dynasty?

Well, that's just too bad.

There's no way that a family like that
would ever be able to

accept your scandalous past.

Seeing how your mouth's still running,

I suppose you still have yet
to learn your lesson.

[dramatic music playing]

If I were you, I'd be more worried
about your next paycheck than being tough.

You must really think that you're the one
who has me on a leash.

But you shouldn't kid yourself.

Because this time, I'm the one
holding the leash around your neck.

[music building]

[music ends abruptly]

[door opens]

Oh ladies, I'm really sorry.

That call took much longer
than I expected. [chuckles]

Is that so?

[breathes shakily]

[sighs]

Hye-seung.

Dear.

The land in Hanam.

-Should we try to develop it?
-[exhales]

No. There's a restriction
on the site I can't touch.

Maybe in the future,
it could be lifted for Seok-jin.

It could even last

until my grandchildren get older.

So were you going to pass it down
to your grandchildren?

Have you already planned that out as well?

Well, my plans don't matter.

I can't use it
if the country put a restriction on it.

What if I could loosen the restriction?

What?

How could you? [chuckles]

I guess you're free to give it a try.

If I succeed,

I would like a 50 percent stake
in the company

that would be developing the land.

You would, of course, still be making
a tremendous amount of profit.

And you'd have more than enough
to share with your son.

Even after giving me 50 percent
of the total earnings.

Absolutely.

[both chuckle]

JUNG MI-JIN

[phone line ringing]

[knocks on door]

[Yoo-sun] What is it now?

I have something for you that you'll want.

Ms. Jin.

You continue to cross the line.

What is this?

This is Congressman Son Pil-young.

Why on earth
would you show me this picture?

Tell me.

You will let me marry
a Black Level member.

[dramatic music playing]

[inhales]

I am Congressman Son Pil-young's
illegitimate daughter.

I'm handing you a knife with this picture.

Who you decide to stab with the knife…

is totally up to you, Ms. Choi.

We are not going to match anyone.

Instead, we are going to host a party.

Twenty male members from our upper levels

and 20 female members
that include those five there.

They'll have the freedom to choose,

and everyone will be
on an equal playing field.

Ms. Choi, as you already know,
our top members that would be included

are extremely opposed
to revealing their identities.

Especially Black Level members.

How can we do this?

Their identities will never be revealed.

It will be a totally anonymous party.

Everyone is required to wear a mask.

At the very end,

everyone will take off their masks
and reveal who they are.

But until then,
if anyone speaks about the event,

they'll be permanently expelled from Rex.

Make sure that everyone understands.

Now, let's get started.

SUPREME COURT

Is that so?

[Ji-sun] It's such a relief.

The competition was so strong

that I didn't think
you had much of a chance.

Now everyone is playing on the same level.

Just try your best
to show yourself off to everyone.

In my honest opinion,

I know you're gonna be
the most popular one.

Will that other woman be coming by chance?

Ms. Seo Hye-seung? [scoffs]
There's no way that she will.

This party requires certain qualifications
that she clearly doesn't have.

All right, then.

[gasps] What? For real?

Oh yeah! I thought I couldn't go
because of my divorce.

Oh, for sure. I'll be the prettiest woman
in the entire room.

[chuckles]

Yeah.

What do you mean a masquerade?

They didn't set you up
on a date by yourself?

What's really important
is that I meet someone.

So don't worry, Mom.

I'm Jung Mi-jin, all right?

[sighs]

SECRET MASQUERADE
YOU ARE INVITED TO OLYMPUS

I'm really sorry,
but I don't think I can go.

If I'm being honest,

this entire party
was planned specifically for you.

I can always recommend people to you,
but this way,

you can personally come and see
if there's anyone that you may like.

I'm not comfortable with events like this.
Plus, what are people going to think?

You won't have to worry
a thing about discretion.

But don't you think the whole masquerade
is a little too silly?

Let me be frank.

I think that we are all living
with masks on.

As we go through our lives,
we keep hiding behind them.

But as we're adding even more and more,

the masks start to reveal
who we truly are.

So by putting on a mask,
we're actually removing another mask.

When people see you,

they immediately start treating you
a certain way, don't they?

Do you think their treatment
shows their true feelings?

Wouldn't you want the chance
to meet someone

who is completely genuine with you

even when they know nothing
about your wealth?

[opera music playing faintly]

[Yong-hwan clears throat]

If I had gone to college,

I think I would've been a professor
or a minister, certainly. [chuckles]

This kid got his intelligence from me.

[chuckles]

[Yoo-sun] Of course.

How old are you turning this year?

-Forty-two.
-Oh already?

And still not married?
What have you been doing?

Do you at least have a girlfriend
that you're dating?

-Not yet.
-[Yong-hwan sighs, sucks teeth]

You need to get married soon,
so I can hold my grandchild.

Come on, you're my only child.

Right. Please, eat.

Yeah, okay. [chuckles]

Set him up with someone for me, okay?
You're the professional here.

-Sure.
-[Yong-hwan] And also…

Please, call her "mother" from now on.

[Yong-hwan clears throat]

There's only four years between us, dear.

Even with four years between you,
a mother is still a mother.

[sighs] Come on, eat.

[theme music playing]

[Ji-sun] That must be Mr. Zeus.

[Hye-seung] Oh. Excuse me.

[dramatic music playing]

[music fades out]
