The two security men
who were there at the conference.

They weren't Seorin's employees,
were they?

They were from some other company.

It took me a while
to check the list of employees...

and kick them out.

But I don't know who hired them.
They refused to tell me.

They got sent to the police station,
so I'm sure we'll find out soon.

I don't think Mi Ran would've
hired men from another agency.

Honey! Honey!

Honey!

Honey, wake up!

Dad! Dad!

Move aside. Please.

Dad! Dad!

Dad, wake up! Dad!

What's wrong with him?

Isn't it obvious?

He collapsed because you kept...

insisting on staying together
with Ji Eun!

How dare you come in here?

I want her out of my sight!

(Taesan University Hospital)

Not only does he have
a ruptured brain aneurysm,

but he also has severe
brain swelling due to bleeding.

We're going to try and get rid of
the blood clots,

but things don't look good.

I'm not sure if he will be able
to regain his consciousness.

And even if he does, it could cause
a problem in his nervous system.

Doctor.

I just don't get it.

He got checkups every year.

How could he have not known
about his condition...

until things got so bad?

After I met Dr. Lee
yesterday morning,

I told your father that he needs
to get surgery right away.

He was going to fix
a surgery date today...

as soon as Mi Ran's press conference
was over.

And he begged me not to tell you.

But because Mi Ran exposed
Mr. Jang and Ji Eun's past...

You can't blame Ji Eun for this.

We can't blame anyone at this point.

Let's save the argument for later.

Doctor.

I trust that you'll do your best.

This is what I thought while I was
pretending to be unconscious.

She must've hated me so much
seeing that she didn't even...

bring me to the hospital right away
even after I collapsed.

So tell me.

Did you find out why
she resents you so much?

There was once a company
named Taeyang Textile,

and she turned out to be
the daughter of the owner.

Right after I became the president
of Seorin Fashion Group,

we had an ugly dispute
with Taeyang Textile.

And right now,
I need time to prepare...

for what she has up her sleeve.

You asked me for help,
so I'm doing what I can.

But like we promised,
this can only last a week.

That's more than enough time
to make her give up.

Normally, the surgery
takes about three hours.

So you'll be sent to the VIP ward
in three hours.

I'll try to keep
everyone's mouths shut,

but I can't guarantee
that nobody will talk.

I'll take responsibility
for making you do this.

So you just need to do what I asked.

It's not too severe yet.
The size is still under 2mm.

And it's not ruptured yet, so you'll
recover as long as you get surgery.

Will you please excuse us?

You haven't told anything
to Jung Min, have you?

I feel very uneasy about it,

but I haven't told him anything
because it's what you asked.

I can't get him involved
in this mess.

And I need someone who can help me.

I may not be very fond of you,

but I know how much you care
about my son.

In order to set up a trap
to catch Myung Hwa,

one needs to be sly and do things
that aren't very ideal.

But Jung Min loves
to face things head on.

And he's a horrible liar.

I trust Jung Min.

That's how I was sure
that Director Choi was lying to me.

That painting...

(2 days ago, Christmas)

It's actually mine. I bought it.

You bought that painting?

Yes.

But why did you hang it
in Director Choi's office?

My stepmother asked
if I could lend it for a while...

so she could hang something nice
in her office...

to celebrate the opening
of her gallery.

Mom.

Are there fake paintings
of Han Su Min's work?

I guess there could be.

But her work has never been
involved in anything like that.

I told you.

It's hard to forge her paintings.

I recently bought
a very expensive painting,

and it turned out to be fake.

The phoenix flower painting
that's in my office.

I need to buy the real one
before the chairman finds out.

And in order to do that,
the photo exhibition...

must go as planned.

I got fooled by Director Choi.

(Inbox, Chance)

"Chance"?

(5 attached files)

Why did this person send me videos
of Mi Ran walking?

I wonder who sent it and why.

(Download, Delete, Cancel)

(Download complete)

As soon as I found out
that Director Choi lied to me,

I received the videos that showed
that Mi Ran was able to walk again.

What kind of sign is this?

It can't be a coincidence
considering the fact...

that I even have
evidence against Director Choi.

Was it wrong to have compromised?

If I'm unsure,
should I just turn things back?

Is this a message telling me
to turn things back?

Hello, sir. It's Ji Eun.

(Seorin)

What is it that I need to know?

What do you know
regarding Director Choi?

First, you need to see a video.

Let's just allow Mi Ran
to go up on stage.

If we let her go up on stage,
it'll be an act of fraud.

I made a big mistake.

I recently bought
a very expensive painting,

and it turned out to be fake.

The phoenix flower painting
that's in my office.

I need to buy the real one
before the chairman finds out.

And in order to do that,
the photo exhibition...

must go as planned.

A rich Chinese decided to buy
the publication rights,

and we already signed the contract.

If people find out we took part
in helping her lie,

they'll become greatly disappointed.

I can't turn a blind eye to this...

when I know how much
it will harm the company.

You're so coldhearted.

I won't let you take the blame.

You just need to keep quiet...

and not tell anyone
that you saw Mi Ran walk.

And that's solely up to you.

- Stop the video.
- First, I'll tell Mi Ran...

to stay in her wheelchair
not just for this event...

Why are you showing me this video?

Wouldn't it have been better for you
to use this against Director Choi...

so that she could help you
get what you want?

I said a lot of harsh things to you.

So why are you
offering to stand on my side?

I'm not here to be on your side.

And it's not about
choosing sides either.

Then what is it about?

It's about my conscience.

I want to start
living a confident life.

Before I blame Director Choi
for lying to me,

I'm embarrassed to say
that I made a mistake...

by compromising with
what I shouldn't have.

But my attempt to hide my mistake...

was probably because
I couldn't forgive myself.

Do you think this will make me...

approve of your relationship
with Jung Min?

I'm not naive enough
to expect something like that.

Then what do you want?

Sir.

After my family went bankrupt,

I was always very intimidated.

People condemned me
saying the business went down...

because my father managed the firm
based on irregularities,

and they also laughed at me.

Your father was a great businessman.

He had insight,

and he also knew how to turn things
to his advantage.

I may not know everything in detail,

but he managed to stay strong
even though your grandfather...

kept giving him a hard time.

It's a pity.

If your father didn't die,

Bisang Apparel...

would've been able to
overcome the crisis.

Yes, I think so too.

But no matter how competent
the executives may be,

the moment an organization
loses its leader,

people become lost.

And I learned that things can come
crumbling down in an instant.

That's why...

your close aides matter.

I was conciliated
and I compromised.

And I lost my responsibility
as the brand manager.

I'll hand in
my resignation tomorrow.

Sit down.

I need you to help me figure out
what Director Choi's intention is.

You're partially
responsible for this.

So do as I say.

He used to be very close
to your father.

He's Reporter Kim Hak Cheol
who works at Donghae Daily.

I used to be
pretty close to him myself...

back when I was the team manager
at Bisang Apparel.

Call him...

and tell him about Mi Ran's lie.

I don't quite understand.

She was determined
to bring damage to Seorin.

That's why she insisted on
letting Mi Ran go up on stage.

Then she'd want to leak that
to the press.

I guess that's her next plan.

When someone deceives you,
you deceive them back.

She knows how to play tricks,

so she was able to convince you
by lying about the fake painting.

But just because you came clean
doesn't mean your job is done.

What do I need to do?

Meet Reporter Kim Hak Cheol...

and give him those videos of Mi Ran.

Then tell him to blackmail me
tomorrow morning.

If a reporter calls
and blackmails you...

before Director Choi leaks
anything to the press,

then she'll have to postpone
causing damage to the company,

and that will lead her
to suspect me.

Yes.

She'll think you felt guilty
and confessed the truth.

But she knows I'm not fond of you,

so she won't ever imagine
that we're in this together.

First, I need to buy time
while making her think...

that things are going her way.

I need to find out
what she has up her sleeve...

and why she resents me so much.

Her spitefulness...

could put our entire company
in danger.

They say, "A small leak
will sink a great ship."

What's wrong?
Are you not interested in helping?

I already got myself involved,

and since I've come too far
to avoid this,

I'll just do as you ask
and call Reporter Kim.

And once this issue
is taken care of,

I'll leave the joint project team.

First, I'm going to fire
Jang Se Hoon.

Did you really think I didn't know?

I knew a long time ago
that you guys were once married.

That's why I told you
to stay away from Jung Min.

I know you're a bright kid.

You take after your father,
so you know how to be political,

and I even once wanted you
to marry my late son.

But not Jung Min.

I'll let you date him
for the time being,

but you can't marry him.

Not only will you be his wife,

but you'll also become
the face of the company.

And I won't have a divorcee...

as my daughter-in-law.

I don't expect to marry him.

(Resignation Letter)

Put it back in.

I want you to keep working for me.

I refuse, sir.

I no longer want to lie...

or keep secrets from Jung Min.

I don't care that you feel uneasy.

Resentment only gets bigger
and deeper with time.

And Choi Myung Hwa,
that darn woman,

has been planning
to take over Seorin for a long time.

There's a reason why
I'm pretending to have collapsed.

I must make her take the bait
and put an end to this.

If I don't do that,
Jung Min will be in danger.

The inheritance process
wasn't very transparent.

Seorin Fashion Group
issued convertible bonds,

and I bought them
at a very low price.

And I gave those bonds to him,

which made him become
the second biggest shareholder.

I did it without his knowing.

But it's all in his name, so he will
be the one getting arrested.

So I need to forestall Myung Hwa.

And in order to do that,
I must get in her way.

While I do what I can
to turn the tables around,

I want you to be my eyes and ears
and help me throughout the process.

My secretary, Mr. Son,
will give you a call.

Stop being unreasonable.

My dad...

is a very strong-minded man.

He's not the type of person to faint
just because he found out...

about Jang Se Hoon and Ji Eun's
past relationship.

People are weak
when it comes to their children.

You're not a father,

so you must not understand
how much it shocked him.

On top of that,
he already had an aneurysm.

What were you doing?

You always acted like
you cared so much about him.

So it's hard to understand
that you had no idea...

he was in such a severe condition.

If things were that bad,
he would've had severe headaches.

Why did you neglect him?

"Neglect"?

I get that you're worked up,

but stop blaming me.

I noticed today
that you're two-faced.

So who knows?

Maybe you've been
waiting for him to collapse.

Watch what you say.

You're the one who should've
watched what you said earlier.

I will never forgive you
for telling Ji Eun...

that you want her out of your sight.

She was the reason why
your father collapsed.

So I couldn't stop myself
from getting angry at her.

I admit that I crossed the line.

I'll apologize to her later on.

Jung Min, everything's become
so complicated.

The compromise I made...

is making our relationship unstable.

What should I do?
What do I need to do?

Here.

My goodness.

That's already
your third cup of water.

I feel so frustrated.

Why do you feel frustrated?

Ji Eun was proven innocent.

Chairman Seo,

Jung Min's father,

now knows that Ji Eun
and Se Hoon used to be married.

So he won't just stand still.

He'll fire her,
make her break up with Jung Min,

and blame Ji Eun for everything.

I know their relationship
is very complicated,

but Ji Eun is the biggest victim
of all this,

so that's just wrong.

They kept running into each other
after they got divorced,

and look what that led to.

It only ended up
putting Ji Eun in a pickle.

My gosh, I should go
and put an end to them.

My goodness,
don't make things worse.

You know how they say
it's always darkest before dawn.

And you never know
what life has in store for you.

Every pain comes with a blessing.

And every hardship
is followed by happiness.

And Easter comes after Passion Week.

If they overcome this,

Ji Eun and Jung Min will grow closer
to each other.

Mom.

Calm down.
I took revenge on Yoon Mi Ran.

What did you do to take revenge?

I took revenge
by writing some comments.

What did you write?

"Send the attention seeker
to a mental hospital."

"She lied to the entire country."

"Why isn't the cleaning lady
getting rid of that piece of trash?"

"She framed his ex-wife..."

"just to save herself.
She isn't even human." And so on.

My goodness.

Those are just facts,
not malicious comments.

But you shouldn't leave
malicious comments like that.

You can get sued for defamation
and libel, you know.

Smartphones are always a problem.

Humans aren't smart enough
to use smartphones.

But now that we have smartphones,
everyone leaves malicious comments.

Whose side are you on?

I'm on your side, of course.

But I'm just worried...

that you might get in trouble
for writing those comments.

I mean, we're like a little family.

Yes, but that doesn't mean
we are a family.

I smell something fishy.
I smell love in the air.

You guys aren't dating, right?

No.

Is she telling the truth?

Well, I'm not sure.

But we are dating.

If you want to be all lovey-dovey,
do it outside the house.

Keep it outside. Outside.

Did Young Eun
just give us permission?

We never know
when we might break up.

I don't think it's a good idea
to be so open about it to everyone.

My gosh,
you almost made my heart stop.

If your heart stops,
I'll make it beat again.

You look exhausted.

Did Chairman Seo give you
a hard time?

Mom, I'm really tired.

Let's talk later.

What did Jung Min say?

How is he going to convince
his father?

Will you stop it already?

Why can't you leave her alone?

You should go inside
and get some rest.

Okay. I'm going to get some sleep.

Rumors only last three days,
so don't worry.

You didn't do anything wrong.

Se Hoon's fiancee is a lunatic.

Why is he dating someone like her?

Why aren't you saying anything?
I'm taking your side here.

I won't be coming home tonight.

Young Eun.

I don't know what you're up to,
but please at least come home.

I should leave before you start
nagging at me again.

I'll see you.

Bye.

Dad! Dad!

Move aside. Please.

Dad! Dad!

Dad, wake up! Dad!

What's wrong with him?

Isn't it obvious?

He collapsed because you kept...

insisting on staying together
with Ji Eun!

How dare you come in here?

I want her out of my sight!

You're the one who needs
to disappear, Director Choi.

It looks like we're enemies now.

(Taesan University Hospital)

He's in a coma.

The surgery went well,
but he's still unconscious?

Yes.

Is it possible
that he might not wake up?

To put it simply,
it's as if he's asleep.

He makes sounds
and murmurs from time to time.

And he reacts to people
talking to him,

so it's possible for him
to regain his consciousness.

But...

he might've experienced
a very big trauma,

and that might be keeping him
from waking up.

Let's see how he recovers.

I'll have to figure out what kind
of trauma he experienced.

It looks like your son will have
to pay for your sins.

(Phoenix 2020)

Why did you send me
Mi Ran's videos?

I figured fate might help me
make up for what I regret.

It looks like you're the one
who will end up regretting this.

I'm no longer going to be
easy on you.

Don't stop yourself
because I won't either.

I want to know everything
about Taeyang Textiles.

I won't let that witch
get things her way.

I'll be the one
to turn the tables around.
