(Episode 12)

Na In Jung,

did you sleep well?

Wait!

Wait.

Fine,

I'll stay in your sight.

Whether it is...

displeasure or hatred,

I'm willing to put up with all of it before you.

But I have a condition.

Condition?

Don't touch the Faith House before winter is over.

And I'll stay until then.

You have to promise me.

You want more time until spring.

People who lives here needs time to look for a new home.

Answer me.

If you have a request, do it with a better attitude.

I'm not getting into a deal with you right now.

Na In Jung,

if you are making a request,

it means you are in need of something.

But your attitude is really bad.

Do it again.

All right,

please give us some time until spring.

All right, I'll let you have some time until spring.

See you in Seoul then.

Na In Jung,

you shouldn't have messed with me.

All right.

I'll empty my heart like this empty bottle and put up with it.

That's what I'll do.

What exactly I'm doing?

The soup is ready.

There's no point looking through it.

I've already said we should open a seafood shop.

Is there anyone who knows about seafood more than you do?

For the side dishes, my culinary skill is not too bad.

In Jung, you can vouch for that, can't you?

Of course, I can vouch for your culinary skill.

Don't you want to open a seafood shop?

As much as you don't want to go to work.

Why do you have to agitate when it's bad enough she's not doing it?

Thanks to In Jung the Faith House can be kept until spring,

and we as the market sellers can operate in winter.

We can use time to look for Director Jo,

who ran away with our compensation money,

or try to get Daehan Construction to pay some of it.

There will definitely have a way out.

It will only be three months the most. I'll be fine.

Have your breakfast.

It's the first day of work, I shouldn't be late.

I don't want Yong Gi to wait for me.

I'm leaving now.

Since you are going to work there, don't be too soft.

Show them some colours!

You said we can't let In Jung come to Seoul herself,

that's why I've decided to come along.

I shouldn't be duped into this.

I shouldn't have been duped.

Anyway, you said you're getting the poultry business.

Furthermore, you said the village is in an uproar.

You were looking for excuses to come here.

That useless, Yong Gi!

He practically turned the entire village upside down.

This is just my luck!

Shouldn't you report at least 30 minutes early on your first day?

Don't tell me she's not showing up.

- Hello. - Hello.

I'm a new secretary, Na In Jung.

As per your instruction,

Na In Jung will be in charge keeping your schedule from now.

Secretary Kim,

please take a good care of her.

You may leave now.

Ms. Na In Jung.

I didn't ask you to leave, Ms. Na In Jung.

I'm sorry, President.

You didn't ask me to stay either, so...

How do you feel on your first day?

Do all Daehan Construction employees have to report...

to president about how they feel on their first day?

This is the first time I'm asking such question.

What do you want me to do?

I believe I've told you before,

to serve me tea and water.

All right, no problem.

I'll get you some water now.

I may be making you stay by my side...

but it won't be easy to change your heart.

Yes,

hurry up and wear me out.

Wear me out as much as possible if it makes you feel better,

and put me out of your mind quickly.

Even if it's a day sooner. Just hurry.

Please enjoy your meal.

They're delaying the demolition work, they've to rescind...

the contract with the builder.

Does that mean...

they're trying to terminate relationship and look for a new partner?

Of course they are terminating their relationship with us.

I was the one recommended while you signed the agreement.

Of course they are unwilling to have anything to do with it.

Kang Yong Gi has an American investment expert by his side.

It's only a matter of time before they source for new one.

Delaying the demolition work for resort is only an excuse.

Don't worry,

I have already stemmed flow Daehan Construction's fund sources.

I've called the banks to clue them in.

I will make him crawling back to you.

You just have to show that you're fairly upset...

and pretend that you're willing to relent...

and go back to the company.

Congressman Kim,

you think that I'm a despicable person.

I get my motivation from competing with myself.

I have no interest in playing games with Kang Yong Gi.

Something's happened!

What are you talking about?

The promissory notes cannot be extended.

They want us to settle it by end of the month.

- Why all of a sudden? - Because we've postponed the construction,

the rumors that we're in financial difficulties are being circulated.

The banks are just trying to protect themselves.

But,

I suspect someone is behind all these.

Do you have any idea who it may be?

Lee Soo Hwan's backer, Congressman Kim.

Congressman Kim...

is stronger than I thought.

What do you intend to do?

Yong Gi,

Congressman Kim is someone who operates in the dark.

In this case,

we can only get Lee Soo Hwan to come back.

Lee Soo Hwan?

You want me to look for Lee Soo Hwan in this state?

He's the only person who can fix this.

Think of something else!

Unfortunately, there isn't anything else.

I can't take Lee Soo Hwan back.

Remove your personal feelings and ask that person to come back.

If you don't get him, Daehan Construction will be in danger!

Let me ask you a question.

What exactly the reason delaying the demolition work?

I can't tell you now.

At this rate, Daehan Construction might wind up. It's dangerous.

Then learn to deal with danger!

Learn it at the expense of losing everything else?

Let me ask you a question.

What exactly the reason for delaying the demolition work?

Remove your personal feelings and ask him to come back.

If you don't get him back, Daehan Construction will be in danger!

I don't think I've seen you before.

Which department are you from?

I've just started working as the president's secretary today.

I see.

I will keep the promise with you...

on behalf of Daehan Construction.

You keep your promises and that's what I like about you.

(Yoon Seok Hyun)

Excuse me for a while.

All right,

it's time for us to meet.

A surprising news?

Okay, sure.

We'll talk about it when we meet.

With Madam Jung around, you'll soften up this business mood for us.

This is your peak hour. Where have you been?

Long time no see.

Why have you brought someone who shouldn't be here?

I didn't bring him here by chance.

He's no longer a part of the Kang family now.

He has been set up by President Kang, just like us.

Let's not speak ill of the deceased.

- Why? - Thanks to President Kang,

you are now a meal preparing owner.

Do you know why I'm no longer selling drink,

but selling rice instead?

Instead of drinking and plotting schemes,

I hope people will eat and interact with others.

That's why I'm selling rice now.

So,

please discuss a good things when you're in my restaurant.

I'll prepare your favourite grilled eel.

Reconsider it.

Nothing bad will come out reconsidering my proposal.

This is the best chance for you to go back...

to Daehan Construction with your head held high.

I appreciate what you're trying to do,

but I have made up my mind. So, don't try to influence me.

I, Lee Soo Hwan,

have no wish to lose myself again.

We'll keep in contact.

Sir,

a company will sometimes run into...

some difficulties or unexpected circumstances.

We will keep going with the resort project at Samcheok-si.

Whether you are continuing or terminating project,

it will have nothing to do with us!

We can't extend the promissory notes...

which will expiring this end of the month!

Hello?

You haven't had lunch.

I feel like eating rice.

Follow me.

How long are you going to keep standing here?

If I want you to understand how I feel,

should I try defending myself...

or should I start speaking from my heart?

I felt pity for Kang Joo Ran who was unable to get your love.

Then,

when I saw Kang Joo Ran who only had eyes for you.

I began to feel jealous.

We didn't begin relationship as a man and woman.

But we developed feelings for each other over time...

and it ended up as a man and woman.

That useless love...

has made me forget that she's my friend wife.

Give me a punch.

It will make me feel better if you give me a good beating.

I don't have the right to beat you.

There's no difference between us.

We're both sinners towards Joo Ran.

Joo Ran loved you with all her heart.

It's just she doesn't know how to be loved.

And I don't know how to love her too.

I've belittled in love.

I'd thought even without love,

without knowing what love is,

our life will not be affected.

But it's not like that in reality.

Someone who doesn't know how to let himself go,

is willing to give everything up,

and lose everything...

in order to spend life with a certain person forever.

Perhaps, this is love.

You haven't forgotten that woman?

If something happens to her again,

I wasn't able to forgive myself.

Even though our bonds have been destroyed,

there's still a wisp of friendship left.

That woman is with Kang Yong Gi right now.

Keep that woman by your side.

You still love that woman, don't you?

Don't bury the love in your heart. Do what Kang Yong Gi is doing.

Tie her down, hold her back and make her stay.

The love which you had to let go because of reality,

is still love, isn't it?

Welcome!

Sit down.

My stomach doesn't feel good so I want eat a meat soup.

- Enjoy your meal. - All right.

Eat up.

Take a bite and I'll let go.

I'm not going anywhere, so let go of my hand.

I'm only giving it to you because I love you.

You blame me, don't you?

Hey, Kang Yong Gi!

Don't conceal your feelings.

You're going through a hard time, aren't you?

Things have turned into a mess because of me, hasn't it?

That's why I've asked you to forget me, haven't I?

You lead your own life,

and I'll lead mine. We'll lead our own separate lives!

Don't meddle into my business.

You were stung by my words, weren't you?

That means I've hit the nail on the head.

You're afraid of Lee Soo Hwan.

You're even afraid him because of me.

Say that again.

You want me to repeat that?

You're afraid of Lee Soo Hwan.

If I'm wrong,

there's no reason when you obviously need him.

Don't sway for some impractical emotions. Stand firm!

And save the company!

That's your responsibility, as Daehan Construction's President.

No matter how hard you dig it in, I will never take Lee Soo Hwan back.

Once a despicable cad, it's always a despicable cad.

If you don't take Lee Soo Hwan back,

then you've lost the battle to yourself.

That woman is with Kang Yong Gi right now.

Keep that woman by your side.

Stop blaming yourself and go to her.

So, you intend to give up everything and live solely?

Yes, that's what I intend to do.

His mother is a gambler and fraudster,

while the son is an adulterer.

That's quite a sight.

Give up to that girl...

while I'm still saying it nicely.

Do you know what your mother has done?

In order to pay her debts,

she fraudulently sold off the Samseong-dong office.

I've heard we will have someone whom we want to keep by our side.

I think that someone is you.

I might as well have told you...

that she was pregnant with your child.

I have no intention...

to forgive you for what you have done.

You said you're sincerely kneeling for forgiveness, didn't you?

But,

do you have any sincerity?

Are you calling me because you're worried about me?

What are you doing?

Let's have a dinner since we haven't done it for a long time.

You should have a cup too.

Here.

Son,

you hate this burden, don't you?

Yes, I hate it.

From now on,

I won't make you hate me again.

Don't laugh at me!

I'm getting married.

He has some money...

and his looks are okay.

Most importantly,

he loves this worthless woman.

Let him carry your burden.

And I'll do all the annoying things to him instead.

He's Japanese descent.

We intend to live in Osaka.

He truly treats you well?

Yes.

Then, that's fine.

I'm your mother, so I'm still worried about you.

What do you intend to do from now on?

Just carry on with my life.

Not now, but I hope...

that you'll eventually find a good woman to remarry.

I've always felt bad...

that you had to give her up because of me.

She should be married by now, right?

It's been a long time.

I'm useless!

Mother.

If I still desire her,

then I'll really be inhumane, won't I?

Didn't you say that you'll handle it? What have you done?

Since you know that the construction is connected to Congressman Kim,

you should have heed Lee Soo Hwan's words!

I know what you're going to say.

But President,

I'm speaking from the experience, so listen to me.

Fishes will never survive in pure water.

If you want your business do well,

it's necessary to use some under handed methods!

He will make the decision after careful considerations.

Even if he's the biggest shareholder,

there won't be a choice if the board raises their objection!

Give up your position as the president,

and we'll all have to resign.

Mark my words.

I should not have been fooled by that unconquerable spirit.

I shouldn't trusting a president who knows nothing.

You're right by not using under handed methods,

that's why I have nothing to say in regard to that.

Should I save the company first...

or should I continue sticking to my established way?

That decision belongs to you, President.

Listen to me carefully.

Daehan Construction is not a private entity.

It's made up from 1,000 blood and employees sweat.

It is driven by their passion and hope. It is everyone's company.

Congressman Kim is not someone to be reckoned with.

He can set all traps for you to fall.

If I die, you will be left to face hostilities all around you.

The company is my painstaking creation.

I don't want to hand it to someone else on a silver platter.

I'm not getting into a deal with you right now.

Don't touch the Faith House before winter is over.

Same goes for me.

I have given my dream and youth to Daehan Construction.

(Na In Jung)

The number you are calling is currently not available...

What is the matter?

Let's meet.

Lee Soo Hwan,

what are you thinking about?

You can knock off now.

I'm about to leave too.

Tomorrow as well, just leave when it's time.

Sit down.

I'll have a drink first before I go on.

- One drink, please. - Yes.

You like it, don't you?

It's refreshing with a bitterness and the taste is special.

Have I said that before?

I'll keep it short.

Please help Kang Yong Gi.

Indeed. But, will Kang Yong Gi accept it?

Whether he's willing to accept it or not,

you have to help him.

If you feel that you owe me something,

then repay it now.

Answer me.

If I repay the debt,

can I be with you and have an aboveboard relationship then?

I've uttered words that have been hidden in my heart.

No matter how much has been endured and suppressed,

what remains is the unchanged heart.

I didn't meet you so I can listen to your heartfelt words.

Even though I hope that he can forget about me,

I don't want to see him suffering any misfortune.

All right.

I don't want to see you suffering either.

In that case, give him a call and help him...

with all your heart.

If it was my father,

he would held his hands under this circumstances, won't he?

President had never done anything definite in his entire life.

He had merely grasp on the right timing to attack or retreat.

This is time to retreat.

You have to learn to face those whom you dislike.

This is what you call business.

Conceal your feelings and shake hands with him.

Keep him by your side and defeat him.

Right.

The deciding point of a match last for five minutes.

If Lee Soo Hwan is the right choice,

there's no need to waste any more time.

It's my treat.

In Jung!

This isn't something that I can decide by myself.

I've deserted my pride for the favour.

You.

The problem with you...

is with that great rational mind of yours.

You could never make up your mind in anything.

I'm pleading with you once more.

Be the first to give in and help him out.

My heart shatters whenever I think the fact...

that he's in this plight because of me.

I could not find anything to say...

whenever I see him because I feel so sorry towards him.

Do you love Kang Yong Gi that much?

Is it that hard...

to let go of Kang Yong Gi?

Yes.

I can't let go.

I know it's quite ridiculous to behave like this,

since I'm the one who deserted him.

People will point and laugh at me for being shameless.

But what I can't help is...

he is the one and only in my heart.

We have caused him...

so much hurt and pain.

We are both sinners...

before him.

We...

don't owe Kang Yong Gi anything.

If you must blame, blame fate for setting it's trap.

All right.

I'll change my decision for your sake.

You should know why I'm here.

Give me an answer.

Hatred for your enemy will mar your judgment.

No matter how angry you are, you'll need me.

That's right,

I don't want to see Daehan Construction winding up either.

That's not what I wish for.

You gain that position because of your father,

whereas I started out at the bottom of the corporate world.

I've staked my life for Daehan Construction.

This is the difference between you and I.

And other difference is,

I won't use despicable ways like you do by torture the woman I love.

I won't abandon her when I run into difficulties.

Yes, I have abandoned her.

That's why I'm afraid regretting it when I'm dead.

So, I intend to get her back.

Who knows?

Fate might have arranged our meeting...

by putting you between us.

Enough of your nonsense.

Don't presume to understand the love between In Jung and I.

I will see to our relationship and problem for myself.

Will it really be so?

Do you have any idea who came to me back to the company,

and pleaded with me to help Kang Yong Gi out?

Would you still say the same after this?

All right!

I'm willing to return to Daehan Construction.

We'll talk about the rest next time.

Why did you look for Lee Soo Hwan?

Why did you meet Lee Soo Hwan without my permission?

Have you forgotten?

Until next spring, you have...

to follow my instructions, Na In Jung.

You go when I ask and come when I want you to.

You will do whatever I tell you and stop when I want you to stop!

Don't ever go crawling to Lee Soo Hwan again.

Don't ever plead on my behalf again.

I didn't plead on your behalf.

I did it for myself.

And so?

Lee Soo Hwan is willing to help me now?

Lee Soo Hwan, who dare not utter a single word in front you...

is helping me out because of you?

Then, what do you want me to do?

Everything happened because of me!

Do you want me to stand around and do nothing?

I've clearly heard that we need that person.

Only him can help Daehan Construction,

so how can I do nothing about it?

Do you know what your problem is?

Your immature sense of responsibility,

your naive conscience, and your insolent pride...

have always left me in misery.

You only think about yourself.

Your reckless stubbornness,

your fantastic pride,

and your ways in making people obey...

have always forced me to comply.

That's right,

we're both just as bad.

You and I are just as incorrigible.

Even if he return to the company,

it will have nothing to do with me.

I went to see him...

because I want things to turn out better for you.

Don't see Lee Soo Hwan again.

Just stay by my side...

and fulfill your duty as a secretary.

One more thing,

you're not allowed to deny me loudly.

All right.

Finish up with what you're doing before coming over.

Prepare yourself before you get here.

All right, I know.

What is this?

We're meeting by chance when I couldn't find a reason to meet you.

He's the ex-director of Daehan Construction.

Please go back first.

He might be useful to us.

I've trusted you and invested, so you'd better solve the problem.

Since I've already sat down, I won't ask your permission to sit.

Why don't you like me?

Because you're too full of yourself.

To you, being frank is considered full of myself.

- Ms. Lee Shin Young. - Yes, go ahead.

Frankness is only possible...

after a certain amount of interaction with the other party.

Ms. Lee Shin Young, your actions aren't frank,

it stems from a lack of concern for other people.

We are merely acquaintance, aren't we?

Director Lee, you are certainly hard.

You don't give me any opportunity to get close to you.

Are you curious?

I've committed suicide,

because I was in need of money.

Can you find me ways to make money?

Whatever it is, I'm willing to obey.

Enough of your nonsense.

Don't presume to understand the love between In Jung and I.

I will see our relationship and problem for myself.

Ms. Lee Shin Young,

are you willing to obey anything if you can make money?

In that case,

can you change the reason for slashing your wrist?

Director Lee,

do you mean to say that you need me, Lee Shin Young?

I've finally found a reason to shake your hands now.

Are you feeling better now?

Don't want to answer my question?

I'm just worried about you.

Someone who always throws a tantrum stopped doing so.

A person who's willful has stopped being wilful.

What exactly is the matter?

I can't digest and lost my appetite.

Do you want to go traveling?

Bring Mi So with you. Take a break before returning.

Yong Gi,

I've been thinking about it.

Nothing will change even if I go traveling.

And staying at home all day is driving me out.

I think I need to find something to do.

All right, that's a good idea.

Tell me, what do you want to do?

You'll give me your consent, won't you?

Find me a position in our company.

What kind of nonsense is that?

Hey!

Can't you come up with something good?

Because you've not raised me morally...

hence what I'm saying now doesn't sound moral to you.

Yes,

I have to bear half of the responsibility for what you've turned out.

Since your father became mesmerized with Yong Gi's mother,

I've invested all my love in you.

Maybe that's what the problem is.

Don't talk...

about the pain in the past anymore.

All these grievances will be brought up by time again.

I can't help it either.

She's still punctual even there's not much work.

Why aren't you getting in?

I'll get out. You can go up first.

Which floor is the president's office on?

Are you a new employee?

- I've been here for about a month. - I see.

Nice to meet you. I'm Han Jung Woo.

What a pity I have to follow the president around at work.

I'm Kang Yong Gi.

You're looking for the president's office?

We'll be seeing each other often.

Don't feel obliged to me.

Anyone can tell that Daehan Construction...

needs Lee Soo Hwan right now.

Everyone has set their personal grudges aside,

and put the company's need in the first place.

Thank you for making this decision before I bring it up.

It won't be for too long.

I'll have to get you manage the branch office in Japan.

It's nice to enjoy the hot spring in winter.

Please look for me again next spring.

I have finally realise...

how much you love this company, Director Han.

This is our ancestral clan first born.

He's been idling away all these time.

My brother passed away and I treat this boy like my son.

He wanted to be a singer. So impractical.

Please keep him by your side and teach him something about life.

All right, please rest assure.

Secretary Kim,

let him...

be my driver.

All right.

- Do you know how to drive? - Yes.

Let's go for the meeting.

Shall we begin?

Go ahead.

Hey, Lee Seung Chul, make sure you shoot it properly.

It's Joanne's birthday today!

- Happy birthday. - Thank you!

You don't have to shoot this part!

Let's blow the candles.

One, two, three.

What did you wish for?

I wish that you'll listen to me.

I'm willing to listen to Joanne.

She really resembles me.

Even if I resemble his first love,

he might not fall for me.

That depends on your performance, Ms. Lee Shin Young.

Yes, that's my responsibility.

I'll do as I deem fit then.

But what's your motive for putting me at his side using this method?

You don't have to know.

Even if you find out later, you'll have to hold your tongue.

All right.

I will be Kang Yong Gi's woman from now on.

Give me more information about Joanne.

I'll introduce you to someone who can help.

Stay by her side for some time.

She's the owner of this tape.

- Where is the director? - Please follow me.

She's in this room.

Introduce yourself.

You really look alike.

But,

why did you bring her to me?

Please treat her as your own child.

Why should I?

I don't have any other reasons.

This girl is all alone by herself,

and you've lost your daughter and alone as well.

I thought both of you might be able to provide some comfort.

Can't we see each other once in a while?

We have...

rubbed shoulders before.

I had drink...

to much that day.

What's your name?

Lee Shin Young.

How did you go with the matter that I asked you to do?

It will be an old folks home so make sure the view will be nice.

Yes, I'll send someone over tomorrow.

Hey!

Why are you standing there? Open the door.

Pretty, isn't she?

You're tired, right?

Give me the car key.

Okay.

I'm going then!

Get in. I'll drive you home.

Why should I get into your car?

I don't want any rumor from this company,

and I don't want our relationship cross the line of our agreement.

Don't think too much.

It's natural to drive an employee home when she's not feeling well.

You're suffering from indigestion!

- Get in. - Stop bothering me!

Get in.

I'm not staying by your side to have a relationship with you.

I should really hate you...

but this hatred is subsiding.

That's great.

You're not feeling well?

I'm fine.

- Are you okay? - Yes.

Why don't you listen to me?

Are you okay?

(Cruel Love Preview)

No matter how much we love each other,

if heaven forbids us together, there's nothing we can do.

Do you live here?

Yong Gi, don't look at me like this.

Don't look at me with those hurtful eyes.

I thought I've forgotten about it,

but it's all coming back.

I thought I've let it go, but it's all coming back.

I won't appear in your dream.

I don't have the right to.

So, I will never appear in your dream.

Even if the request is made by the president, I can't agree.

It's not a request, it's an order.

Director,

shouldn't a director behave like he is one?

Why is Ms. Lee Shin Young sitting in front me right now?

Looks like the fate between us is pretty extraordinary.

Stay for a little while.

Can you console me?

Can you stay quietly by my side?
