(Resignation)

(Resignation)

I...

will leave Haesung Corporation...

and live on my own.

Choi Do Kyung.

You must be out of your mind. Have you gone crazy?

How dare you give me a resignation?

I want to...

open my own business on my own.

You want to open your own business?

Yes.

Are you serious?

Then what did you mean when you said...

that you can't marry Jang So Ra?

It's the same.

I thought...

that I wanted...

to lead my own life.

Is that why you want to leave Haesung Corporation?

Are you saying you will give up...

on being the successor of Haesung?

Yes.

Do Kyung.

Yes.

Give me a reason why you're doing this.

I want to know your honest reason.

But I've kept telling you.

Do you think that can be a reason?

Don't you know how this...

will affect Haesung Corporation?

Yes, you do. You're well aware of it.

The successor of Haesung Corporation left Haesung.

Who would believe that?

Who would believe that he walked out on his own?

There will be a rumor that there must be...

a critical problem to leave.

Gambling, drugs, women, or mental problems.

How could you resign when you're aware of all that?

Those rumors will disappear...

if I do well on my own.

You know that Haesung...

can be influenced even by stock rumors.

And the chairman believes honor is most important.

That's why.

I've been living 33 years of my life...

as the successor of Haesung Corporation.

I...

have never lived the way I wanted.

What about it? It never did anything bad to you.

Have many people do you think are born...

as a successor of a corporation in Korea?

I...

never wanted that.

I realized it.

Did I want to be...

a successor of a corporation?

No.

I want...

to find a way...

to live a happy life...

on my own.

Is that why you told So Ra's family...

that you can't marry her and resign?

I'm actually glad...

that I can do this before it's too late.

Do you remember what I told you...

when you said you won't marry Jang So Ra?

Your grandfather...

always goes with his plan, Do Kyung.

Are you sure you will be responsible for all this?

Choices...

come with responsibility.

Then...

I'll leave now.

It's a woman problem.

Do Kyung has a woman.

I think Do Kyung really means it.

There must be a reason why he means it.

He even...

shook off his tail.

You put a tail on Do Kyung?

He has something...

that he doesn't want us to find out.

That's why he doesn't want to go to Europe.

Do you think Do Kyung resigned...

to avoid going to Europe?

If not,

how can you understand his reckless decision?

How dare he make a deal?

Sending you to the Europe branch...

is a huge warning.

Two ways to respond to a warning.

Obey to the one that gave the warning.

Leave the boundary of the warning.

Leave the boundary?

But that means...

giving up on being Haesung's successor.

Let's focus on the business.

You said you would be my business partner...

if I made my decision.

I didn't believe you.

Why didn't you?

You know more than anyone...

what I went through to get here.

Do Kyung.

Successor of Haesung Corporation,

then later, a leader.

That's what you have.

If you drop it, it'll fall on your feet.

It'll crush your feet.

That's only when I drop it.

I can throw it.

You can't throw it. It's too heavy.

I'll move my feet before it falls.

Is that how much you love her?

Do you want her that bad?

There are many ways to get her.

It's not only for Ji An.

I want to live the way I want...

before it's too late.

You're insane.

When I register my face, it becomes the key,

and the door opens, right?

How about the funds?

I'll use cash for now.

I'll sell my shares.

I think that'll be enough...

until the building in Gangnam is sold.

We have connections in the United States,

but Europe won't be easy.

There's a higher chance of terror attacks.

Things might be easier in Europe.

And I have a few MBA friends in Europe.

But this is strictly business.

I don't plan on treating you differently at all.

This facial recognition system...

is very important to me.

It's important to me too now.

This is the first business since my independence.

Did you find a place for me?

It's hard to find a vacant house on short notice.

You know that you're quite picky.

What?

For now, you should get a short-term rental...

and choose your house yourself.

But did you really have resign?

You're telling me to live in a temporary apartment?

Keep looking.

I can stay at a hotel for the time being.

What is it?

Don't look at me like that.

You should stay with the company.

You're better off at a conglomerate.

Must I meet her?

Who?

Your lover.

My "lover"?

Do you think it's possible for me to date...

in a life which you tightly control?

I hope you will accept...

what I told you as it is.

We can talk about the rest at home.

I must catch up with some work.

I heard you got a random order for the lamp.

What? Oh, yes.

That customer is quite odd.

She sent us 300 dollars as the downpayment and...

said she'll pay in full when we settle on a price.

She called to tell us to price it however we want.

She did?

Yong Gook said they will cost 300 dollars each.

Hang on. Let me finish this up.

You've been using the fact that we lost you...

to do whatever you want.

And that ends today.

Sir,

we should listen to why Ji Soo did...

You shut your mouth!

If you were adequate,

do you think this disguise would be necessary?

Think how inadequate you must have been.

Ji Soo.

Close the shop. I'll teach you how to make the dough.

You'll teach me now?

Come home when you're done with work.

You have a lesson today.

I have an appointment with my family today,

so I must go home early.

You looked down throughout the day.

I don't know why both of us are so down lately.

I'm sorry.

I'm sincerely sorry.

There's nothing I can say to you.

What a shame.

Vice President Choi is old enough.

He must know how things are too.

He told me that he liked So Ra.

After becoming the vice president,

he must have felt a lot of pressure with work.

So Ra must be upset.

No, she understands him.

To be honest, I'm quite offended,

but she said she'll handle this after she graduates.

Is that what she said?

I guess there's a hope for them.

She said she brought up the engagement too soon.

Anyway, she said they will give it some time...

and reconsider the engagement.

Yes. Of course. Do Kyung also said that...

turning down So Ra wasn't because he disliked her.

I don't want to go inside.

You're home.

Hi.

I'm home.

Say hello.

She's your French tutor.

Hello, I'm Park Ji Young.

You want me to learn French?

English is too common.

You must learn another second language.

Ms. Min, show her to the second floor.

Okay. Please follow me this way.

I'll send some refreshments upstairs.

Have dinner after your class.

When you're full, your mind gets cloudy.

Okay.

You're home.

Hi.

Are you teaching her French?

Ms. Min, tell Do Kyung I'd like to talk to him.

Yes, ma'am.

It'd be better to send her to France.

Let's sit and talk.

"B, c, d,"

"e, f,"

"g,"

"h."

No, "H".

"H."

There.

"H."

Since Ji Soo likes to bake,

he told me to send her to a baking school in France.

I'm relieved to hear that.

He won't let her study it for her graduate studies.

She should study baking for her graduate studies.

She can launch a baking franchise for our FNB.

To where and when will she leave?

I'm looking for her school in various cities.

Somewhere with not many Koreans would be good.

By the way, I met with Ms. Son.

Do Kyung and So Ra aren't completely over.

He was telling us the truth for that matter.

They decided to give it some time.

Is that so?

Then why did he resign from his position?

He wants Father to cancel the transfer to Europe.

I'm home.

I heard that you wanted to see me.

I'll have the transfer cancelled,

so get your head straight, and work at the company.

Mom, I already submitted my resignation.

Enough is enough.

There's only so much I can let you have your way.

You didn't cause trouble when you were young.

You're too old to act up.

If canceling the transfer isn't what you want,

you truly want to be independent.

Yes, I do. That's what I told you earlier.

I will leave Haesung and this house.

I want to run a business on my own.

You'll leave this house?

Did you pick a destination?

Yes, a college friend lives in Namhae.

How long will you stay there?

Well, I haven't decided that yet.

During my time there,

I'll think about how I'll live the rest of my life.

I can't run a cafe when I get old.

Why can't you?

I'm thinking of running a cafe for senior citizens.

But aren't you giving Ji An too much work?

She hasn't come home yet?

I thought she was sleeping.

No, she hasn't come back.

I went to her room to give some of my clothes,

but she wasn't there.

It's almost 1am.

Of course I will.

When is your engagement ceremony?

We already had it.

As I said that,

you dropped your pencil.

That was a mistake. A mistake.

Hey, Ji An.

Don't you look at the time? It's 1:30am.

It's 1:30am?

Stop immediately, and get up.

Just a bit more. I want to finish this quickly.

Is it that fun?

Yes. Even this lamp is fun to make.

"Even"?

What lamp is that?

Hyuk, I am too hungry to walk.

Can I eat instant noodles before going home?

You can't. Never.

Come on.

I had to cut the wood for the DIY furniture...

and make the custom-order lamp. That's why I'm late.

I had to work on two things.

Can't you spare me some time to eat noodles?

You're such a useful part-time employee.

We are looking to hire a regular employee.

I don't know where to find someone like you.

If you let me eat noodles,

I will continue working for you.

What?

It's kimchi fried rice. Did your sister cook it?

I cooked it. I made it.

You did? Why did you make it?

I didn't want to be blamed for being too hard on you.

Then can I eat this every time I work late?

What? Are you willing to stay at our company?

Why?

I'm home.

- You're home. - Hello.

Aren't you going to apply to other companies?

You're 29 next year.

It's your last chance to get into a big company.

Don't tell me to live that life again.

I'm going to...

stop trying so hard. I don't want to do it.

But it was your choice.

Didn't you come here to clear your mind?

I used to think that was how I should live.

I thought that was my best shot.

But...

that wasn't how I wanted to live.

I worked really hard.

I did everything I could.

I had to do well to become a regular employee.

There were times when I was proud of myself,

but I had never felt any sense of accomplishment.

Don't you want to succeed anymore?

Don't you want to work at a big company like others?

No.

Why not?

This work is fun.

It may be fun,

but it's not something you can be proud of.

In this house, I've seen people who are happy...

even if they don't have the fanciest jobs.

You've seen them too.

I thank you for that.

Ji An.

But I won't be a regular employee.

I might suddenly decide to go somewhere.

I'll volunteer to become a temporary worker. Okay?

All right.

I'm glad I have you.

I'm leaving, Mom.

I told you that I'll go to the airport with you.

He's seeing me off.

We're going to be late. Let's hurry.

I'll get going then.

I can't understand them.

I was so worried...

that she might insist on going to the airport.

She always sees me off at the airport.

How do you feel right now?

About my successful escape?

It doesn't feel good yet.

I can't be relieved until the airplane takes off.

Then I should hurry up and let you...

get on the plane as soon as possible.

Please cancel the engagement.

And don't attend our foundation day event.

If I could do that,

I wouldn't have thought of getting engaged so fast.

If you were willing to marry a man...

who loves another woman,

you wouldn't have observed me so closely.

You said that you don't want a fake marriage.

Why don't you just say that you have a woman...

and that she's yours?

Just break the news.

I can't do that.

We're nothing yet.

You're nothing yet?

Not yet.

You're not even in a relationship,

and you are calling off the engagement?

Why?

I have no other choice.

I don't understand.

How can you do that?

She made me like this.

How...

did you know...

that I am in love with another woman?

My lover...

looked at me with those eyes....

when he was seeing me off at the airport.

He was just like you when I first met you.

His mouth was smiling,

but his eyes looked sad.

He was adopted from Korea.

And his adoptive parents are African.

I was planning to marry someone similar to me...

and just date him for fun.

But it didn't turn out the way you wanted.

If you didn't love another woman,

I might have ended it with him.

If you were willing to do that,

you wouldn't have tested me.

Didn't you need an excuse?

Didn't you want to get engaged before leaving...

because you wanted me to call it off?

Or maybe...

you knew I was going to call it off.

Maybe you're right.

When I looked into your eyes,

I couldn't stop thinking about him.

But you were scared of your parents.

Are you going to marry me just because...

you don't want to disappoint them?

Help me leave Korea...

and get to Chicago.

I will cause trouble there.

So Ra.

If I break the news in Korea,

I won't be able to go to the US.

You said you are leaving right away...

when you get to Chicago. Where are you off to?

Why would I tell you that? It's a secret.

You won't get any help from your parents now.

You might need my help.

What do you think of my man?

You and I are even now.

I sold some of my stocks,

withdrew my savings, and sent it to my friends.

I also packed everything that might be of value.

When you're determined, you become brave.

You're just like someone.

Do you mean Ms. Seo Ji An?

How do you know Ji An's name?

Ji An has feelings for you.

Did you...

meet Ji An?

I stirred her up a bit.

I am curious about the result.

So you met Ji An.

How?

Did Gi Jae tell you about her?

Two lamps will be delivered to your office.

They are my gifts to you.

(Jang So Ra)

(Choi Do Kyung)

You said I could have him.

Can you stick to your words?

If you deliver the lamp to Do Kyung's office,

I will feel better.

Is she feisty or mean?

I will be relieved,

you will prove that you got nothing to hide,

and Do Kyung...

will feel something.

Wouldn't it benefit all three of us?

Right.

It will benefit all three of us.

(Choi Do Kyung)

Thank you, So Ra.

Same here.

Just a moment.

It... It's Ji An. It's from Ji An.

I'm going to deliver lamps.

What time should I go there?

She's going to deliver the lamps.

It's as if she knows that I am leaving.

I am heading out now.

If you're out, I will leave it at the lobby.

What? I should get it myself.

No way. I must get it myself.

I'm in a meeting. Come in an hour.

I should go, So Ra.

Don't change your mind on the plane.

He's going to wait for me at the airport.

Don't worry, and go.

Take care.

Sir, whose is this?

That's mine.

Can I borrow this?

I've come to deliver the lamps...

to the vice president.

Right. I got his call.

You can go in.

Thank you.

Hello.

You're here.

You can go in.

Okay.

Excuse me.

What?

What are you doing here, Ms. Seo?

I've come to deliver the lamps.

Were you the one delivering the lamps?

Yes, it was me.

My goodness, So Ra was naughty.

You must've felt bad.

"Felt bad"? I felt terrible.

Why do you make me an idiot?

I told you so many times not to come.

Why did you have to make your fiance come to me?

Are you insane? You're even engaged.

I am not insane.

Your fiance ordered matching lamps.

So Ra is not my fiance.

I will neither get engaged nor get married to So Ra.

I was going to explain. Why are you so impatient?

But she said they were engagement gifts.

That's why I said she's being naughty.

Did you make these well?

If you made mine well...

and So Ra's badly, it might be troublesome.

You're surprised, aren't you?

Stop.

You should wait, Ms. Seo.

You have to wait until I check the lamps.

If you have any questions, you may ask as you wait.

Ask me why I didn't get engaged.

Ask me for whom I called off the engagement.

(Haesung will lead an eco-friendly life.)

The money.

Mr. Choi is not here.

He's not here?

He was just here.

He left right away.

He's got an important meeting.

- Right. Then... - I'll tell him...

to call you right away.

No, tell him he can send the money to our store.

I will tell him to contact you right away.

- No. - I am his secretary,

so I have to follow the manual.

Please understand.

Okay then. Bye.

Look at this.

Ji An made these.

Aren't these amazing?

Do you... Do you really want to do that?

I needed time...

to think. That's all.

I've been working for you for five years. Five.

It's my legitimate chance...

to meet her once again. Missing this chance...

would be a bad choice for a businessman.

Why did I get shocked and forget to get the money?

(Relocation announcement)

(Choi Do Kyung will be relocated...)

(to the Europe office.)

Going to the Europe office...

is getting demoted.

So Ra is not my fiance.

I will neither get engaged nor get married to So Ra.

Is it because of me?

No way.

Why would he do such a crazy thing?

He wouldn't do anything like that.

I tried to persuade him not to leave the company,

but he wants to move out of the house too.

You two can't handle him.

You should meet him yourself.

You can't even control your young son.

I'm not happy with you, but your husband is worse.

He's so soft. Gosh.

He told me to send her to a baking school in France.

She should study baking for her graduate studies.

She can launch a baking franchise for our FNB.

I've been living 33 years of my life...

as the successor of Haesung Corporation.

I...

have never lived the way I wanted.

We stopped by a rest stop to use the toilet,

and she didn't check the back seat.

How could you call yourself a mother?

Dad.

Please find my daughter.

The press is outside, right?

Detectives are waiting too.

We didn't lose Eun Seok at the rest stop.

What?

Everyone will gossip...

about the heiress of Haesung Corporation...

not being able to even take care of her child.

I can't let that happen.

But if we don't disclose where we lost her,

How can we find her?

It's already been 20 days.

How can the mother wake up from a coma...

after 20 days and say...

that she didn't check on her child before leaving?

We lost her at the site of the accident.

You will...

talk in front of the press and the detectives.

I will cover the mouths of the directors.

They won't just let this slide.

Gosh.

- Ji Soo. - Yes?

Please put up a sign on the door...

that we won't be baking in the afternoon.

- What? - I can't work today.

But you can't do that.

What about our customers who come in the afternoon?

Then you should make them.

I'll bring you my secret water.

- You should make them. - How could you say that?

That's making a fool out of all our customers.

Copying is all I can do.

I am nowhere near as good as you.

Then close the shop, and go home.

I feel really sick. I can't work.

You have experience in this, so you're good.

It'd be better if you stay here for a few more days.

Things are still unfamiliar to me.

Give me a call when you need anything.

Mr. Sunwoo will come help you in the afternoon.

Okay. I'll work hard.

I'll leave you to your work then.

Ms. Sunwoo, are you going somewhere?

Ji Soo, thank you for all your hard work until now.

I'm sorry we couldn't even have a meal together.

What's going on? It sounds like you're leaving.

Well, I'm going out of town for work.

"Out of town"?

Then are you leaving Seoul?

Ma'am, there's something in the customer list.

(Mr. Baker)

The phone is turned off. Please leave a message...

Here. It's for the lamps.

The new employee got me some money. Then...

I should pay you for your work.

But it hasn't been a month yet.

Today is the employees' payday.

I'm paying you by the days you worked here.

Overtime pay is included.

Thank you.

Did I work well enough for what I'm being paid?

Your boss says...

that he would've been in big trouble without you.

We're getting more orders for the DIY furniture.

And you cut the wood at an inhuman pace.

It feels great to get paid for my labor.

Mr. Baker.

Mr. Sunwoo.

Ji Soo.

Ji Soo, are you all right?

Please give me a ride to the bakery.

Okay.

- Please hurry. - Okay.

Thank you.

What's wrong?

Mr. Baker, why is your phone turned off?

Ms. Sunwoo is leaving Seoul.

She's going out of town for work. Hurry.

Go quickly.

Gosh.

Ji Soo.

Yes?

What should I do?

Hee!

Wait, Hee!

Hee, wait.

Please hurry.

Hee, wait for me.

Hee!

A man is following us.

Please don't care about him.

Hee, wait.

Hee.

Hee.

The guy collapsed.

What?

Stop the car.

It doesn't hurt now.

They already broke up. Why did you run like that?

Because they couldn't move on.

Mr. Baker can't get over her.

Mr. Baker can't move on for the rest of his life.

That's what she means to him.

So I just couldn't let her go like that.

You can't read Mr. Baker's mind.

I can't tell you all of it since it's his business.

But he said she was his only love.

She was the first person...

to give him a sweet smile.

How would he forget her?

Now, all he can do is to wait for her.

It must've been hard for him.

If anything urgent comes up again, give me a call.

It's acute gastric ulcer.

He has a swollen stomach and inflammation.

He should receive treatment as an inpatient.

It's not serious. I don't have to be hospitalized.

Just prescribe some medicine, please.

No, he'll receive hospital treatment.

How could you let it come to this?

You make easily-digestible bread for other people.

But why did you not care about your own stomach?

You've had gastritis since you were 20.

Why would I care about myself?

I have no reason to take good care of my body.

Ji An. That's enough for today.

You must not work overtime today.

Why?

We never work overtime on our payday.

That's the rule here.

I'll have some soju with my friend. See you later.

- Okay. - Yes, sir.

You should hang out with your family or friends.

Never work.

I'd like to extend my stay for an hour.

Again?

- I'm leaving. - See you.

Hello?

Ji Tae, it's me, Ji An.

Ji An.

So I'll meet Ji An.

I think I should see her alone today.

Okay. I'll see her next time then.

It's cold today. Make sure to wear your scarf.

Okay.

(My period is 24 days late.)

- Thank you. Goodbye. - Goodbye.

Hey, Mi Jung.

Hae Ja, what are you doing here?

I was going to call you,

but I needed to ask you some questions.

Is anything wrong with you?

I'm not important. What happened to you?

Tae Soo says he'll move out.

Move out?

I was away from home for a while.

I'm working at my friend's company now.

All right. I don't have to know...

where you've been.

I'm just glad you're back.

And you came back much earlier than I'd expected.

Earlier than you expected?

You went there thinking you were their daughter.

But that wasn't true.

You must've been miserable and devastated.

Our parents did this to you.

I understand not wanting to meet them.

I feel the same way.

It must be much harder for you and your wife.

Maybe I should've told her about it before marriage.

I thought about that only now.

I just...

didn't want you to...

break off your engagement because of our parents.

You'd blame them for the rest of your life.

I wouldn't have gotten married if I knew that.

I guess your wife is having a hard time now.

Soo A doesn't seem to mind much.

She said she'd have still married me.

Mom and Dad come home late,

so we barely meet.

Anyway.

I didn't get you anything for your wedding.

Pick whatever you like.

Does your friend's company make lamps?

Sorry.

It's Mom.

Dad put up the house for sale.

She wants me to hurry home.

Ji Tae, you're home.

What's that about?

Dad's selling this house?

That's all Hae Ja said. I don't know much else.

I asked your dad to come home soon too.

Did you talk to him?

He didn't pick up, so I sent a text.

He's on his way.

Soo A.

I'll wait upstairs.

No, you stay with us too.

Honey.

Is what Hae Ja said true?

Did you ask her husband to sell the house?

I told them to sell the house.

What for?

I told you already.

The deposit we get back is yours, Ji Tae.

You got a loan to get this house,

so pay that back or do whatever you want.

And I told you to find a small apartment.

- Were you serious? - You really meant that?

I'll join the crew of a deep-sea fishing vessel.

Everything's settled.

You'll go deep-sea fishing?

You're too old for that. And deep-sea fishing?

It's not about age. It's about necessity.

When we moved back to Seoul from Busan,

I boarded a fishing vessel...

for 18 months to pay the rent.

That was years ago.

We can't all scatter just like that.

What about Ji An and Ji Ho?

What about me?

We'll talk about you later.

Dad.

Are you doing this because you're angry with us?

You planned to move out after two years anyway.

Will Ji An move back in?

Will Ji Ho move back in?

It's not about us.

We're worried about you and Mom.

Fine, let's say you'll go deep-sea fishing.

What about Mom?

Aren't you too young to be forgetful?

I said you needn't worry about us.

The rent is cheap,

so the landlord will find another tenant soon.

You should all get ready.

Are you really going fishing?

Ji Tae.

Did I ever say anything I didn't mean?

Do you not believe anything I say now...

because I sent Ji An away instead of Ji Soo?

No, that's not what I mean.

We're moving out,

and I'll board the ship in a month.

I'll make sure your mom...

won't need your help.

So don't ask anything about this matter again.

Honey.

What should I do then?

I can't stay with...

Ji Tae and Soo A if you're gone.

Don't even dream of it.

Don't you dare living with...

any of our kids.

Then do you mean...

I have to live on my own?

Live on your own.

I can't do that.

I lived my whole life for you until now.

You lived your life for me?

Out of all people, how dare you say that?

Don't you know what you did to me?

I don't want to mention that.

So don't pretend...

you were a loyal wife to me.

I'll wire you whatever I make on board the ship.

That should pay your rent.

Is it because of what I said when I sent Ji An?

I trusted and relied on you my whole life.

I couldn't stand seeing our kids suffer.

You trusted money.

You didn't trust me.

Honey.

If you feel guilty towards the girls...

and sorry for Ji Tae and Soo A,

there's only one thing to do.

Live on your own from now on.

I'll wire you my salary on time.

Father's serious.

You felt that too, right?

Yes.

If someone wants to rent this place,

let's say we will instead.

Us?

You got a loan to pay the deposit.

Can't we stay here?

We can't tell Mother to move out alone,

but we can lease the smaller room.

Wait, Soo A.

I think it's too early to discuss that.

What did Ji An say?

Will she come home?

Not for a while.

She won't want to face her mom.

Then it's settled.

I'll go get a shower. Do you need anything?

Hey.

I have to...

check the inventory before leaving.

Go ahead. Listen while you work.

Are you serious?

Here. For your services.

(100 dollars)

Princess.

I can't spend time with you today.

So I don't need your money.

No one will ask me...

what happened since my recital.

How could they do that?

I'm practically invisible.

You said you'd take them on...

and ask if they're really your parents or not.

Wait, the 270D model's missing.

Here it is.

Thanks.

I couldn't do that.

Ji Soo escaped...

and the whole house got frigid.

What do you mean? My sister...

She ran away from home?

You want to talk about her too.

I'm here because you're the only person...

who can keep my secrets.

It's natural for a brother to worry about a sister.

I guess so.

If that's so natural,

why doesn't anyone in my family care about me?

Where are you going?

You think I'm a nuisance too.

Goodbye then.

You won't see me out?

Ms. Choi.

You were born with access...

to an everlasting spring of cash,

but I have to do this to keep my job.

You agreed to do part-time work to relieve my stress.

I did. That's my part-time work.

This is my regular work.

256D is right here.

Can you play with me if you finish quickly?

Sure. It's a deal.

Also,

I'll tell you how to figure out...

if you're really their daughter,

so tell me about my sister's escape.

What?

I can't.

I'm not allowed to tell family secrets.

Goodbye then.

Okay, fine.

However,

even if it turns out you aren't related,

that's your problem.

What is it?

The trick is...

to conduct a DNA test.

Science is most accurate.

Nothing beats it.

- A DNA test? - Yes.

Gosh, why didn't I think of that?

Let's finish up and go play, okay?

- Don't you care if... - Be quiet.

- And... - Take this.

Here. These are for you.

You came here to play?

It's because I'm too tired today.

I don't read comic books.

Don't they have any classic novels?

What classic nonsense.

Just read what I brought you.

This is unbelievable.

You want me to read this?

What is this?

Where did she go?

Hey, Choi Seo Hyun.

I'm over here.

What are you doing?

This is so gripping.

How can a dentist be this handsome?

A dentist?

My goodness.

What's all this?

I got them so no one else could.

Volume 15?

Oh, no. You have to go home.

It's 11pm already.

- 11pm? - Yes.

Can't I finish this first?

Wake up, Cinderella. You aren't the heroine.

Just this volume.

- I'm not done! - Get a grip.

- Come with me. - I want to finish it!

Is this it?

The winning design for our new line?

Yes.

That's a cute duck. I wonder who drew it.

The tag...

makes it look much nicer.

Then good luck with the premium brand.

The president will give you a launch date.

Okay.

Thank you for your hard work until now.

Thank you, Mr. Choi.

I wish you luck planning the next two quarters...

and serve whoever takes over my position well.

Thank you for your help until now.

Will you return when you're back from Europe?

I wish you good health.

We'll take care of things until you return.

I have so many memories of this place.

I think I'll miss it.

He's sorting things out at work?

This should do for today.

I should see her one last time.

I need to be on time.

You'll get sick...

if you don't eat on time.

I slow down when I'm full.

Go ahead. I'll see you tomorrow.

Okay.

Goodbye.

It's freezing.

I'm here to pay for the lamps.

But I asked you to wire the money.

Did you? I never got that message.

You're so scatterbrained.

How did you forget the money?

I went right back, but you'd already left.

You came back?

I left for an urgent meeting right afterwards.

I see.

Thanks for bringing this over.

Have you eaten dinner?

I'm working on something that has to be done soon.

Goodbye.

Why do you always want me to leave...

when you know I can't?

So Ra is not my fiance.

I will neither get engaged nor get married to So Ra.

Hyuk should be here. Where is he?

He's coming to take me to a team dinner.

Okay. Fine. I'll leave you alone.

All right.

I came in time for dinner on purpose.

It's so hard to eat with you.

Bye.

Good...

bye.

Wait for me, Ji An.

I'll come back...

as a decent man...

and entrepreneur.

Grandpa.

You decided to be independent?

Yes, Grandpa. Sorry.

Like you,

I wanted to start my own business.

- Do you? - Yes.

With what money?

Don't you need money to do business?

I have assets.

Your "assets"?

Do you mean the company shares,

the land in Pyeongchang,

and the building in Gangnam?

And some cash?

Are you talking about everything I gave you?

You want to be independent from Haesung,

and all you could think of was to sell...

the assets I gave you?

Since you gave them to me so long ago,

I assumed they were mine.

That's under the premise that you're my grandson.

If you have any pride or conscience,

you shouldn't spend anything that's Haesung's.

Don't you think so?

Make your choice.

Is it independence or marriage with Jang So Ra?

I choose independence.

You choose independence?

Yes.

All right then. Do as you wish.

Thanks.

Give me your car key first.

You have...

your ID card...

and accounts under your name.

I can't stop you from secretly withdrawing,

but will you stoop down that low?

Wallet.

Hand it over.

You can keep the cash you have in here.

You are still my flesh and blood.

I don't want you to...

end up starving or freezing to death...

in this cold weather, right?

Thank you.

Is that it?

I think so.

Then leave now.

Very well.

Goodbye.

It's freezing.

(Special thanks to Yoo In Young.)

(My Golden Life)

I'm warning you. Don't give any help...

to Choi Do Kyung from now on.

I'm sorry, Friend.

Goodbye, you jerk.

Come to my house.

I have so many places to go.

I didn't want to eat alone.

I had no one to have lunch with.

You scared me.

Let's have lunch.

You're here to say goodbye.

How's your knee?

Yes. It's all good.

If you care about her, it means you're in love

I keep my words, Grandfather.

He's gone. He left.

I never want to see Choi Do Kyung again.
