(Episode 59)

"Edward Choi"?

That's my American name.

Are you saying...

you're the chairman of Northsky Group?

Is Edward Choi...

really the chairman of Northsky Group?

Are you sure that Edward Choi...

is the chairman of Northsky?

He's the founder of Northsky,

although he doesn't hold a position in the company.

He paints the big picture for us.

Also, he respects me as CEO.

How could Choi Geo Bok, the poor student with a shaved head,

become the chairman of Northsky Group?

Does that make sense to you?

This is...

an official meeting between the presidents...

of Northsky and Guseong.

Please show some respect.

My goodness.

I want Guseong Group to be managed...

in new, transparent ways.

That's why I'm here today,

and everything is ready for that change.

No matter what you may believe,

my company has always been managed...

in transparent ways.

The Northsky Korean Branch...

has handed over all relevant documents...

about Guseong Group to me.

And they are being reviewed...

by the best experts at the moment.

What nonsense is this?

When the review is completed,

I'll send the results over to you.

After reading through them,

I'm sure you'll want to talk to me.

I'll see you then.

Let's go.

We can go now.

Those idiots...

Gosh.

Calm down, Mr. Na.

- We have a problem, sir. - What is it now?

Ms. Do has been taken into custody by the police.

- Do Hee? - Yes.

Why?

- Let go of me! - Mom!

Hae Ri.

What's going on?

Who are you?

We're from the Gusan Police Criminal Department.

Ms. Do is under arrest...

for aiding and abetting the assault of Kim Woo Jae. Please step aside.

If you don't, you may be punished for obstruction of justice.

She may be punished?

No one can mess with her.

She will be the next CEO of Guseong Group.

Mom.

You don't have to worry about me.

I'm sure I'll be released after a few questions.

Get off me.

I'll come with Attorney Kim soon.

You really don't have to worry.

I've done absolutely nothing wrong.

I'll sue you for defamation.

Get off me. I'll get in myself.

I'll be with you soon.

This is driving me crazy.

Since you ruined someone's life, I'll ruin yours.

Witch One, you're doomed.

You're completely done for!

Excuse me.

Hello.

I'm reporter Kim Seung Woo from Wuseong Daily.

What's the matter?

While interviewing some people here,

I happened to overhear what you said.

Has the daughter-in-law of President Na of Guseong Group...

been abusing her power?

You wouldn't believe it.

My injured friend is not the only victim.

Including me,

there are a ton of people who have been mistreated by Guseong Group.

Can you tell me the details?

Well... Let me see.

Just a second.

Get off me.

Look who's here.

What are you wearing around your wrists?

I love everything about your outfit today.

What are you saying?

Did you think you could get away from...

ruining someone's life?

I'll make sure...

you pay for what you did.

What did you say?

Move. Let's go.

I can't believe him.

I'll definitely visit you in prison. Wait for me.

You'll visit me in prison?

Don't be ridiculous.

How could you say such a thing, you jerk?

Be quiet.

What should I do with him?

I have some hard feelings.

Why don't we go grab a cup of tea somewhere?

I have a lot to tell you.

What did I do wrong? I have nothing to pay for.

An innocent man died because of you.

I didn't kill Kang Jin Gu.

All I did was tell him to get away during the tax investigation.

I even gave him money and got him a ship to stow away.

He got himself killed.

Is that how Kang Jin Gu died?

While covering up for you?

No! It was his own fault he died.

Also, the slush funds were to help you one day.

So how can you of all people say that I must pay for my actions?

Hi, Bak Ha.

I've been trying to reach you all day.

I'm sorry. I had a lot of meetings today.

Is it about your business idea?

Is that why you're meeting people?

Yes.

Did it go well?

I think so.

Thank you for taking care of Yeol Mu last night.

No problem.

Do you want to meet me at the car wash when I get off work?

I'm sorry. I'm meeting someone later.

Well, too bad.

See you at home then.

Okay. I'm sorry.

Don't worry.

Why does he sound so depressed?

She was widowed at an early age.

She often becomes irrational when it comes to her daughter.

We will apologize to the victim...

and pay sufficient compensation.

Please...

let her off the hook this once, Mr. Commissioner.

Yes.

Oh, thank you. I appreciate it. Bye.

Don't you know any better?

I'm sorry.

Like mother, like daughter.

I thought I made myself clear.

And you try to get married without us knowing?

How could you disappoint me like this?

Put yourself in my shoes.

Would you be able to leave the company...

to someone so immature like you?

You tried to get married...

without your family knowing.

How could I leave all my employees in your hands?

President Na.

I should have known better.

Please forgive me and save my mom.

I already talked to the commissioner.

You can relax.

Thank you.

What?

I'm just telling you. You don't have to do anything.

Why did you sue them without telling me a word?

How could you say that when you're suffering like this?

It just ended your career.

It already happened. What can I do about it?

It's not like I can get my shoulder back by suing them.

- What? - When I started dating Hae Ri,

I was prepared for all this.

Gosh, you sound like a saint.

Do you want to take her side at a time like this?

That wench hasn't even shown up knowing you're injured like this.

She abandoned you.

That's enough.

What will you do if you can't play golf?

What else can you do other than golf?

You will be just like me once you retire.

Pull yourself together, you silly punk.

They are being really vicious.

You should at least...

get some money from them to make your living.

Did you sue them for money?

Your body is completely ruined.

We have to get money from them since that's all they have.

Please stop it.

I'm feeling so miserable already.

Don't make me look so pathetic.

It's not pathetic.

We just want to be compensated for the damage.

That's enough. Unless you want me to go crazy,

please stop it here.

All right.

I'll stop.

Fine. Have it your own way.

Darn it.

Please don't be nervous, ma'am.

I will show you some cards now.

I need you to tell me the names of things drawn on the cards.

Tree.

Car.

The person you have reached is unavailable.

Why isn't she answering the phone? Isn't the checkup over yet?

I should've gone to the hospital with them.

Sweetheart, what are you doing here at this hour?

I'm a little tired, so I got off work early.

I'll be better after getting some rest.

Let me take your jacket.

I'd like to go out.

Where are you going?

What?

My friends want to see me before our wedding.

By the way, Eun Ji,

about Choi Geo Bok.

What about Mr. Choi?

When did the jerk...

move in to Nakwon Inn?

Was it early fall last year?

He showed up looking like a homeless man...

and asked for a night's lodging...

I mean, he begged Ms. Bok.

So he stayed in Room One.

How wicked.

Mr. Choi is not like that.

He's very gentle and humorous.

Eun Ji, now you belong...

to Guseong Group, not Nakwon Inn.

So you have to sever all ties with people from there.

Why aren't you answering?

Okay. I will.

So he's sharpened...

the sword of revenge to get back at me for 50 years.

He laid a trap and waited for the right time.

That nasty and spiteful jerk.

Mak Rye, I'm home.

You said...

you'd go to see Na Wang Sam. How did it go?

It went well.

"I'm Choi Geo Bok..."

"from Northsky Group."

I reached out my hand saying that.

And he stared at me...

with surprised eyes like a deer caught in the headlights...

and dropped his jaw.

I wish you could see his face.

It must've been quite a sight to see.

He will soon get on his knees in front of you and say,

"I'm so sorry, Ms. Bok."

"Please spare me." I'm sure it will happen pretty soon.

You can look forward to it.

Okay.

What's the matter? Is something wrong?

No. It's about Geum Hee.

She went to get a checkup, and I'm waiting for her call.

But I haven't heard from her yet.

I think...

she has dementia.

My gosh.

Things just have got better for her with the bakery.

And now she has dementia? It's just ridiculous.

She just cut through a wave, but there's one more coming.

She just pushed a cloud away,

but another comes right away threatening rain.

My goodness.

That's what life is all about.

We don't have long...

to live in our right minds like this.

We don't have a lot of time left, Mak Rye.

Doctor. I don't have dementia, do I?

Do you see this?

This is the hippocampus in the lobus temporalis.

I can see a bit of denaturalization occurring as well as atrophy.

The result of the checkup shows...

that you are in the early or mid-stages of dementia.

But... She's still young.

How could she have dementia?

It's called presenile dementia.

A lot of young people get dementia these days.

What should we do to cure it?

What should we do? We will do anything.

We can help slow the progression of the disease,

but it's impossible to cure it completely.

Unfortunately,

the best thing we can do is slow the progression.

It was expected to some extent.

So it's not so surprising.

Right?

I know. It's no big deal.

The doctor said...

we can slow the progression with medication.

Just hold out until when you turn 90.

- Honey. - Yes?

Once my dementia gets worse,

and it costs a lot of money,

you should go far away...

and ditch me at a place where you can't find me.

How could you say that?

Are you crazy?

Do you think...

I'm the kind of person who abandons his own wife?

Is that how you think of me?

I just feel bad for you that you will have to...

take care of me all by yourself.

Don't worry.

I'll be just fine.

I've gone through all sorts of hardships.

I will never get swayed by something like this.

Honey.

We've worked really hard to come all the way here.

We can overcome it again.

You are my everything.

(Hand Wash Zone)

Ms. Geum, aren't you hungry? Come and eat.

I'm coming.

If the USB drive Kang Jin Gu left behind...

is revealed to the public,

what will happen to us?

I doubt we'll be able to continue like this.

We'd all be happy...

if this didn't exist.

What should I do, Bak Ha?

(Gusan Police Station)

Look here, detective. I only told them...

to scare him off a bit.

My daughter was going to elope.

I had every right to teach him a lesson.

They're the ones who took it too far due to their violent nature.

I never hired them to physically harm Kim Woo Jae.

Ma'am, that's a bit harsh of you.

Harsh, my foot.

I only told you to scare him,

not physically harm him, you punks!

Ma'am, please.

Her only daughter was about to elope.

As her mother, she only wanted to stop it.

It can't be categorized as a crime.

If there's anyone to blame,

it should be to those who crossed the line...

at the scene.

My client is in no way directly involved...

with this assault.

I concur with my lawyer's statement.

If we don't have evidence of her involvement,

we should let her go for now.

But, sir...

You may head home for now.

We could summon you again after investigating your call log,

so please don't go anywhere far.

Have a good day.

Ma'am, we should go.

Is this what you put me in cuffs for?

What an annoying little bunch.

Let's go.

Mom!

Mom...

You almost gave me a heart attack.

Why did you come when I only had to answer a few questions?

If it weren't for Grandpa, things could've been worse.

I can't believe you'd be this reckless.

And who did I do this for, you imbecile?

I told you many times not to do this.

Last year on Anmyeon Island, I ended up passing out.

It never goes well.

Is that all you can say when I was just grilled by the police?

Shouldn't you console me for the trouble I went through?

And you call yourself my daughter?

I'm upset, that's why. This is upsetting.

Let us calm down for now.

Rather than pointing fingers,

it's most important to settle with Mr. Kim first.

- Settle? - Settle?

Come in.

Do I know you?

I'm Kim Dae Seob, the legal representative of Guseong.

Can I help you?

Here you go.

What's this?

It's consolation money from Ms. Do.

I don't need it.

She sends her deepest apology and concern.

We'd appreciate you taking the settlement.

Her apology and words of concern?

I'd like to hear it from her in person.

I don't need the money, so take it with you.

Mr. Kim, please think this through.

Just leave!

Man Ho, is that you?

Right, do you have the result?

- How did the test go? - What did the doctor say?

She has dementia, just like we thought.

Then why didn't you come straight home?

Where are you two?

She wanted to visit the church in her hometown,

so we're on our way there.

We'll stay the night and head home tomorrow morning.

Find some peace within you and come home tomorrow.

Sure, I got it.

I can't believe you hung up without letting me talk to him.

They're on a bus to Geum Hee's hometown.

What for?

Apparently, Geum Hee wants to visit the church there.

Could they be having bad thoughts again?

No, don't worry about that.

I highly doubt it.

How can life be this cruel?

Dementia...

for someone so young?

Since that's the case, we should also...

start over before we get older.

Until when will we stay...

as an innkeeper and a tenant?

What are you getting at?

Isn't it obvious?

I'm asking for your hand in marriage.

You're insane!

How is that crazy?

Even someone young...

was diagnosed with dementia today.

Who knows what'll happen to us old people in a day's time?

As I told you before,

we don't have much time.

Unbelievable.

Time and tide wait for no man.

Gosh.

Him and his English.

(Episode 60)

Life is so hard.

Things have just got better for her, but now she has dementia.

It's just ridiculous.

I feel really bad for Geum Hee.

But I also feel terrible for Man Ho as man...

as he will have to deal with the whole thing all by himself.

They barely got out of the long tunnel,

but they have one more ahead of them.

Gosh, this is crazy.

Why is the world so unfair?

The bread always falls on the buttered side.

What about Woo Jae? Can't he play golf again?

The doctor says it's impossible.

But for Woo Jae, it's his heart, not his body...

that's seriously hurt.

They broke up right before the wedding. He must be frustrated.

It's not like that.

He's supposed to be jumping up and down now.

Is he a saint or a holy man?

That stupid idiot says he understands and forgives her.

That's because Woo Jae is good-hearted.

He's just too good.

That's why I'm upset.

Darn it.

Room Six, you're the only one who's leading a decent life now.

Not really.

Why? Is something wrong?

Oh, right. Someone told me.

Women feel somewhat restless before their wedding.

Is everything going well?

There's not much to do.

Is it really okay to start a loveless marriage?

I can't stop thinking about it.

But it's not like you can date a penniless guy at your age.

You're the one who doesn't want to date a woman without money.

That's true.

I've led a pathetic life the whole time.

I don't want to spend the rest of my life that way.

My point.

But at the same time,

money might help you live a happy life,

but it doesn't necessarily bring you happiness.

My point.

Think about Wang Sam's family.

I realized people can be unhappy when they have so much money.

It's just surprising.

However, let me ask you this.

I'm only saying this as a possible scenario,

but what if someone poor proposed to you?

Yes?

Would you accept it?

Would you accept a marriage proposal...

from a woman who's poor?

I don't know.

I should probably think about that.

Me too. I'll think about it.

Right, of course.

Sir, I'm back.

Right.

Are you coming from meeting your grandfather?

He's still furious with me,

so I haven't been able to ever since I left home.

Then you won't be back at Guseong any time soon.

I'm thinking about beginning a startup...

that develops an app for foreign sightseers.

I see.

Do you have the funds?

I'll start off with money from those I know...

and apply for government funding once the app is developed.

I see.

Send me a copy of the project plan once you have one.

Sure, sir.

So where's Yeol Mu?

I just put him to sleep in my room.

I'll take him off your hands then.

At least that punk has a decent grandson.

Goodness, Yeol Mu.

Did you have fun today?

You can go back to sleep now.

Gosh.

So? You weren't able to retrieve the USB drive?

He kept insisting that I turn myself in.

I couldn't say anything more.

I can't believe that your son isn't taking your side!

What is he thinking?

Just like his father, he's a stickler for the rules.

Also, he's not in his right mind due to recent events.

He's a loose cannon.

Talk about an ill-fated relationship.

Mr. Son,

you know someone in Japan, right?

Yes.

I converted a good amount of money in dollars and yen.

Leave the country and get a new cell phone.

For the time being, don't try to contact me.

What about you though?

Don't worry.

I can take care of myself.

Sure.

I'll head to safety first then.

Take care.

I'll call once things blow over.

Yes, ma'am.

I know it's difficult, but turn yourself in.

Turn myself in?

What if I don't?

Then I'll hand the USB drive over to Bak Ha.

You're out of your mind.

You'll hand it over to her...

knowing what will happen to me?

The truth finally coming out is for your own good, that's why.

Give me three days.

I need some time to think.

Yeol Mu, you seem awfully happy.

Let me get changed.

Wait, your shoe.

What about my shoe?

It's about to come off.

Look at the heel.

It's fine. I'll fix it with superglue.

I'm sorry.

Jin Gu,

I'm sorry.

I haven't been here in a long time,

but it's still the same.

It's just as how it used to be.

As a kid,

I'd used to come here when I was upset.

I found peace walking the grounds.

You brought me here on our first date too.

What a relief.

I remember that day clearly.

I haven't forgotten any detail.

It's okay if you do...

because I still remember.

I can always tell you again.

Thanks.

I followed you to my first mass ever...

and I was shocked by...

how beautiful you were in the veil.

It's when I thought that you were the one.

Was I really that beautiful?

You were then and you still are now.

You too.

You were handsome then and you still are now.

Then we were meant to be.

I'll head inside to pray.

I'll come with you.

No, please stay here.

It won't take long.

Every moment with my husband has been warm.

The happiness that I didn't deserve is ending...

and now we face our darkest moments.

Darkness will fill my world,

so please let me be the only one to suffer in it.

Don't let Man Ho...

suffer alongside me.

Please take me away as soon as you can...

so that I don't become a burden to him.

Honey...

I'm sorry.

What are you sorry for?

This only happened...

because I couldn't give you the best life.

I'm the one who's sorry.

Geum Hee has dementia?

I see that Poong Ki didn't tell you.

This is so sudden.

How could this be happening?

You're one to ask.

What about your life, Woo Jae?

The doctor said that your career as a pro athlete is over.

Poong Ki went to the police station and filed a complaint.

So let's just leave them to get punished by law.

An attorney came earlier this afternoon.

- An attorney? - An attorney?

Yes, he gave me money and asked me to settle.

What a bunch of monsters.

They must think money solves everything. So what did you say?

I told him I won't settle until I get an apology from them.

Good job. Don't ever settle.

People like them will only learn their lesson...

once they get locked up in jail.

We can also hire an attorney.

I'll help you find a really competent one.

It's time for dinner.

Your grandfather and mother are waiting for you.

I don't have an appetite.

Then I'll leave you to rest.

She doesn't want to eat right now.

My goodness.

I'm sorry for worrying you.

Did you settle?

Mr. Kim visited him at the hospital.

And he apparently refused to settle.

So what?

I'll go see him tomorrow myself and get him to settle.

Give him enough money...

so that the situation won't get out of control.

Okay, Father.

And...

once Eun Ji and I get married,

I want both of you to move out.

- Father. - Father.

I'm sick of having to take care of my daughters-in-law.

I want you out of here...

the moment we get married.

You're home.

Hello.

That sounds like Eun Ji.

Sweetheart.

I'm home.

Do you think money is everything?

Is money more important to you than a person's life?

Did you drink?

Yes, sweetheart.

I was really angry...

and upset.

So I had a few bottles of soju.

Hey!

I'm starting to sober up now that I'm in front of you two.

Sweetheart, can you please get rid of them?

- Please? - Will you calm down?

How could you be ignorant enough to get drunk...

and throw a fit in front of Father?

You're the one who's ignorant.

I can't believe...

you sent a group of gangsters to your daughter's fiance.

Listen to me.

You're nothing but a bully.

You darn witch.

Eun Ji, you're very drunk. You should get some rest.

How dare you?

Stay out of this.

What did you just say?

You turned a decent man into a gigolo.

You're just an old fox who likes young men.

You old fox.

You'd better watch what you say.

That's enough out of you. Let's get you to your room.

You're also not in the clear.

I heard you stole money from Nakwon Inn 50 years ago...

- and ran away with that money. - That's enough.

- Really, Father? - Really, Father?

What?

You're a thief, sweetheart.

- Enough! - You thief!

Miss.

- He's a thief. - Yes, ma'am?

Take her upstairs.

She's so annoying.

I also think you're annoying.

That little...

- What a complete mess. - He's a thief.

I can't believe what's become of this family.

Since we're on that subject,

are you really done with Coach Gam?

I don't have any ulterior motives.

I'm only asking out of curiosity.

I'm already angry, so don't make me blow up.

But then again, he's probably the last thing on your mind...

since Hae Jun got kicked out from home.

Sorry.

This is...

all because of you.

What's wrong with you?

If you hadn't reported me to the National Tax Service,

they wouldn't have come for a tax investigation.

Then Kang Jin Gu wouldn't have died...

while trying to avoid the investigation.

This all started because of you.

What in the world are you talking about?

I'll get back at you one day.

So you just wait and see.

Who's Kang Jin Gu?

Wait a minute.

He's Secretary Geum's late husband. But why is she...

bringing him up all of a sudden?

Can we meet in the backyard?

What are you doing here?

Bak Ha.

You reek of alcohol.

Why did you drink so much?

You'll catch a cold. Let's go inside.

I'm sorry.

What's wrong?

I'm...

I'm sorry that I have...

such a horrible mom.

I didn't choose this.

It's just how I was born.

I just happened to end up...

with a mother like her.

I'm sorry.

You're extremely drunk.

You should go inside.

You'll catch a cold.

Did something bad happen?

Why did you drink so much?

I'm sorry.

Isn't this something important?

You could've lost this.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

(Nakwon Inn)

Hey, wait.

Hae Jun's cell phone is turned off.

Will you please call him out for me?

Wait here.

Hey, wait.

Can we talk for a moment?

Aren't you here to see your son?

It won't take long.

What do you need to say?

I'm busy. I need to get ready for an interview tomorrow morning.

Someone...

got me fired from the golf club,

so I have an interview early tomorrow morning.

I really have nothing to say about that.

I'd like to sincerely apologize.

Did you buy me...

this bitter coffee so you could apologize?

I have a favor to ask.

If you do that for me,

I'll pay you a huge amount of money.

What kind of nonsense is this?

Hae Jun has a USB drive.

Can you please find that for me? I also need his laptop.

What do you take me for?

Are you telling me to steal?

Unbelievable.

One million.

Do that for me,

and I'll give you a million dollars in cash.

You're home late.

- Yes. - How's Woo Jae doing?

He's recovering fast. He can go home tomorrow.

That's great.

Is Mr. Na asleep?

He was drunk and fell asleep.

He drank?

He was very drunk. He completely passed out.

He must be feeling bad about running away from home.

- Good night. - Good night.

Mr. Na.

Hae Jun.

(Nakwon Inn)

Wait.

Where are you going? You haven't had breakfast yet.

I'm in a rush to meet someone.

Aren't you hungover?

Drink some honey tea.

Thanks.

Why did you drink so much last night?

I'm sorry. Did I make any mistakes?

You didn't, but you talked nonsense.

You said you were sorry for being your mom's son...

at least 30 times.

What did you mean by that?

Let's talk later. I'm running late.

Thanks for the tea. See you.

Come in.

Welcome, Poong Ki.

I've been waiting for you all morning.

I'm sure you've been waiting...

for this.

You brought it.

I'm not sure what happened between you and your son.

But I doubt you'd do anything to hurt your son.

That's why I brought it.

Thank you.

I'll make it up to you.

Not so fast. We had a deal, remember?

Gosh.

It's a promissory note notarized by a lawyer.

A million dollars, I believe?

Of course.

All right. We exchange them at the same time.

Sure.

(Power of Attorney)

Settle with him and sort this out.

Woo Jae is a kind man.

I'm sure it'll be all right.

- Go back now. - I still love you.

Help me this once.

I don't want to see you again.

Poong Ki, do you think I should come back?

- Really? - Really.

Sweetheart, try it on.

You're the most beautiful bride I've ever seen.

Why is everyone in my family so obsessed with money?

What's with you? You sound as if you're going far away.

Please take good care of Hae Jun.
