(Episode 20)

Mother, why are you doing this?

Please get up. Please.

Let Taejun go.

I'm begging you.

Yes, please help him out.

That heartless boy must have been so miserable

to come to me and cry.

He was 7 years old

when I turned my back on him,

and even then, he never shed a tear.

He must have been so miserable

to sob in front of me.

When I think about that, I feel like dying.

Why are you acting this way?

Because I can't bear to watch

Taejun suffering any longer.

You're the kind one, so let him go. Please?

I'll tell him to give you money.

Okay?

Mother,

you don't pity Saebyeol?

Her dad wasn't there when she was born

or when she was growing up.

She never knew her dad's love.

But Taejun is going to abandon Saebyeol

and marry another woman,

and you expect me to let him do that?

You only care about your own child?

My child is important, too!

Mother...

Taejun doesn't want you.

Even when people are married with kids,

they can grow apart and get divorced.

And you weren't even married!

No!

I can't let Taejun off the hook!

No matter what you say,

I'm going to get Saebyeol her dad back!

Fine.

Let's see which of us

has the strongest motherly love! Let's see!

(Preschool)

Hello.

Saebyeol did?

Okay. I'll be right there.

- Saebyeol. / - Mom.

What happened...

What happened to your face?

How did this happen?

Saebyeol hit me first!

No! You said mean things about my dad first!

Ma'am.

Saebyeol doesn't have a dad, right?

She's like an orphan, isn't she?

What?

No, I do have a dad.

I never tell lies.

Saebyeol and Minjae, go to the classroom.

What happened?

They had a fight.

I think Saebyeol hit Minjae first.

Saebyeol hit Minjae?

He told Saebyeol to bring proof

that she has a dad.

Something like your wedding photo,

or a gift her dad gave her.

Saebyeol couldn't say anything back

and ended up hitting Minjae for teasing her.

Saebyeol, is the chicken good?

Yes, it's yummy.

Oh, my little puppy, you're busy chewing.

I need to go and take care of something,

so can you handle the restaurant for me?

- Sure. / - Thanks.

Saebyeol.

How did you feel about fighting with Minjae?

Good?

Right?

I don't want you

to become a bad kid.

The bad kid is Minjae.

He laughed at me and said I didn't have a dad.

He said he won't play with me because I'm pathetic.

Mom, when is dad coming?

Saebyeol, you want to see your dad?

A lot.

I'm not a liar.

He kept saying I have no dad, but I do.

But mom,

I can stand it.

I'm like you, so I can stand anything.

Saebyeol, let me go get some more of this.

Okay.

(Taejun)

Thank you.

Pretend I made this, and eat it.

It's very similar to how I cook noodles.

No, it can't be similar.

It has to be made by you.

I'm here with you right now,

so just pretend.

No. I don't know about your ex,

but that won't work on me.

Kang Taejun, it has to be you.

The noodles are getting soggy.

Hurry up and eat.

Can you drop by my neighborhood?

Saebyeol really wants to see her dad.

It won't take long. Please.

What does the text say?

What?

Oh, it's nothing. Eat.

Mom, when are we going home?

Saebyeol, you want to go home?

Yes, I'm sleepy.

Okay. Let's go home.

Let me call your grandma.

Mr. Jang, they're ready for the meeting.

Okay.

As you can see,

profits and sales for last year's 4th quarter

dropped by 75% and 5%

compared to the previous year,

and short-term losses

hit their highest point ever.

It's time for a prompt decision.

You think that

it's best to sell AP Foods?

This wasn't a temporary loss

due to moving the factory?

It's not a temporary stagnation,

but a great risk that might end up

affecting Baekdo's core business.

AP Foods is doing badly right now,

but the food and beverage department has had

a profitability ratio over 10% for the past 2 years.

If AP Foods is doing badly,

shouldn't we pick and choose certain areas

and develop the food and beverage section further?

I believe we can minimize losses by selling AP Foods

while the food and beverage department

can still contribute to sales profits.

Oh, did you come out in order to meet me?

You know better than anyone

that such a thing would never happen.

Unlikely things happen sometimes.

Hwigyeong

was assigned to the returned goods warehouse?

My husband didn't tell me, so I didn't know.

How interesting.

Why did it take you this long to find out?

Why is that? Have things been hectic for you?

Sejin's wedding isn't going the way you'd like?

Of course it's going well.

I just visited a fortune-teller to set the date.

Fortunately, they have good marital compatibility.

That's great.

Sejin is pregnant,

so she should get married before it starts to show.

What would people say?

Yun Yeongsuk, you must be pretty relaxed

to be worrying about others.

Then again, it won't be so bad for Hwigyeong

to start out at the bottom.

He needs to do some hard work,

so he can learn how harsh the world is

and how hard it is to run a business,

and realize his place, don't you agree?

Hwigyeong is such a nice little brother, right?

He's made his sad excuse for a big sister

so happy like this.

You're siblings, but you're so different.

Oh, no...

I know you're trying really hard,

but I'm not getting upset at all.

Oh? My father's not here.

He went up to get an MRI.

If things look okay, he might go home.

He has so much work to do,

and he's been here too long.

Of course.

My father has to stand strong

so that he can drop a bomb now and then

as a wake-up call for Hwigyeong.

Your father will be taking a while.

Are you going to wait?

It's something of an embarrassment

for us to be in the same room together.

You're right.

But actually, I didn't come here to see my father.

I came to see you.

I was really curious how you were doing,

but I'm glad that you're just as I expected.

Bye.

Yun Yeongsuk,

keep your tail between your legs,

or I won't be very nice to Hwigyeong.

Really, mom?

I'm getting married next month?

I got the date from a very famous fortune-teller.

It's an auspicious date.

I wish I could take it back.

Don't be like that, mom.

Not after setting the date.

You're my only child,

but you got pregnant

before getting married, so what can I do?

Not letting you marry him will ruin your future,

but letting you marry him will drive me crazy.

Thank you, mom.

I was born to the most amazing parents ever.

Get away from me. I hate you right now.

Silly...

Why do you look so upset

after a great presentation?

I'm opposed to your opinion,

but I didn't think it was bad.

I have to tell you something important.

Tell me. What is it?

May I come to your office?

Is it work-related?

Or is it a private matter?

It's an extremely private matter.

I have a short meeting,

so I'll see you after that.

Since it's a private matter,

let's meet somewhere outside my office.

I'll let you know the time and place.

Congratulations.

Our wedding's on the second Saturday of next month.

My mom went and got the perfect date.

And we have good marital compatibility.

I should go and say hello to your mother.

Can you drop by my neighborhood?

Saebyeol really wants to see her dad.

It won't take long. Please.

The second Saturday of next month?

You told me to set the date as soon as possible.

I did what you asked,

so you take care of the rest.

Okay. I'll talk to you when I get home.

You came early.

I should've moved more quickly.

You're 20 minutes early.

The expression on your face earlier made me curious,

so I felt anxious.

Sit down.

I don't trust alcohol,

so I want to hear it before we start drinking.

What is it you want to tell me?

It's a difficult subject,

but I thought I must tell you.

What is it?

I won't interrupt.

I couldn't sort things out

with the woman I dated before I went abroad.

We were together for a long time,

so we were very close,

and we were going to get married.

So...

So?

I'm sorry for interrupting

when I said I wouldn't.

So what does that change?

I need time.

What can time change?

Are you going to tell Sejin about her?

No.

There's a child.

That woman and I

have a daughter together.

I...

I'm responsible for her.

That was to show my disappointment

for your inability to resolve things.

And that was

for the absurdity of your filling your head

with worries about another woman

when you should only be thinking about Sejin.

And finally, this is...

A toast to myself for picking

the right man.

Thank you for telling me.

If you'd waited and forced me to bring that up,

I would've made Sejin give you up.

Now I feel reassured about you.

That woman and her daughter...

I should've made you sort things out 5 years ago.

I won't make the same mistake twice.

So you just get ready for the wedding.

I'll take care of the woman and her daughter.

I'll become the devil from this point on,

so you need to stay out of everything.

That's all you need to do.

This is my final

wedding gift to you.

What? Me?

What?

You're grateful and moved to tears?

If you are, go and get me a scoop.

Who knows?

Maybe there's a scoop

behind that wedding, like a pregnancy.

Why? Why does it have to be me?

You don't have any other reporters here?

What?

Ms. Lee.

As a freelance reporter, when I give you work,

you should say thank you and run out the door.

How dare you glare at me!

You don't want to work?

You don't want to make money?

I like working, and I like money,

I really do...

But I can't do this job.

Get someone else. I'm sorry.

Hey! Lee Eunbong!

Hey! Eunbong!

She's saying no to money?

Why would I go there?

That man is only 9 years older than me, your son.

Whatever! Do what you want!

Look at all that dandruff!

Please let go of past grudges,

and just think of Hwigyeong

and my company Baekdo Group.

I don't have much time left,

and I wanted to tell you this before it's too late.

It must be very hard.

Taking care of a sick person

can be exhausting.

You don't look so well.

No, it's not hard.

You must be busy, so you should go.

So, you're keeping your promise?

Dad, I told you I was going.

So why are you doubting me?

Can I really trust you

and not worry about anything?

I'm right in front of the place.

You sent a spy with me, so why are you calling?

I'm getting a call. Bye.

Seriously,

he's treating his daughter like an old leftover.

What's so bad about being engaged twice before?

You won't answer your phone? You said a call came.

I lied.

If I hadn't, he'd still be nagging.

Don't you have to fix your makeup

and do something about your hair?

Right?

Did I look really pretty earlier?

I wouldn't say "really pretty,"

but I have a feeling with some touching up,

you'd look completely different.

Right.

How's this?

With a little more work,

you'll look perfect.

Okay.

How's this?

Sort of perfect.

Okay.

What time is it?

Just 5 minutes left until 7:00.

I should get going.

Segwang, you get going.

No! Your father will fire me!

I'll call you when I'm finished,

so you can go on a date, too.

You're nuts about that girl you just met, right?

Who told you that?

She's the one who's nuts about me.

Just go.

But I shouldn't! Man...

Geumbong?

Hey!

You!

Why did you stop me?

Just let him go.

It might get really dangerous.

There wasn't anything important in there?

I had a laptop, but it's okay.

This is what really matters.

Let's go.

I go after the rich and powerful,

so this kind of thing happens all the time.

Let's go. I'll buy you dinner.

Thank you.

You had to run really hard,

so enjoy the chicken feet.

But I didn't catch the guy,

so isn't this too much?

If you had caught him, there would be

pig trotters here instead of chicken feet.

But seriously,

haven't we met somewhere before?

Now that you're really looking at me,

you like what you see?

Why are you trying to flirt with me?

Do you have a twin sister?

Who knows?

Maybe my parents hid my twin sister

somewhere out there in this world.

Maybe we never did meet.

I've seen you before.

Right? You have, haven't you?

I've seen your photo in newspapers and magazines.

Was that article about you true?

If that was really true,

it would make you a real piece of garbage.

Ms. Baek Dohui,

did you come for a date with a piece of garbage?

I don't care

if you're a piece of garbage or not.

But I have a feeling that

you're not a piece of garbage.

My father has a very keen eye

for people.

I'm impressed

by how you toy with a person's feelings.

You're Jang Sejin's uncle, aren't you?

What kind of man is Kang Taejun,

the man she's going to marry?

Let's get this straight.

Are you out on a blind date,

or are you working?

Two birds with one stone.

Everyone's busy.

I like your work ethic...

- But you got one thing wrong. / - What is that?

Sejin is my niece,

but I learned about her wedding from that article.

No matter what you ask, I won't have answers,

so let's just drink.

You didn't come here willingly, did you?

That's obvious?

Do you know what everyone has in common

whose parents force them to go on blind dates?

Every single one of them is attractive.

Are you saying that

you think I'm attractive right now?

Correct!

You have great taste.

Am I not really pretty?

I didn't do anything special,

but I'm gorgeous, right?

Are you trying to say that

you were forced to come, too?

I was forced at first.

But not anymore.

To be honest,

I went to see you this afternoon

to get this all over with.

But I'm really glad that

I didn't end it too early.

Hey, Geumbong.

What is it?

You don't like my being casual with you?

Being casual?

Why? You don't like it?

It's more like I wasn't expecting it.

Geumbong,

sometimes unexpected events are good.

Like a thunderstorm on a midsummer night.

You've fallen for me, haven't you?

Just do it.

Just keep going!

Hold that thought.

Hello.

I got it. I'll be right there.

I'm sorry. I have to go.

My father needs me urgently.

He's at the Federation of Korean Industries meeting,

and he needs some files right now.

The Federation of Korean Industries?

Oh, that Federation of Korean Industries!

You should go, then.

Doesn't your mother attend

the Federation of Korean Industries meetings?

Of course she does.

She had other plans tonight, so she couldn't go.

Good night.

Man, what am I doing here?

If only this really was my house.

When am I going to get home?

You're home late.

Drink this before you go.

It's still cold out.

In the past,

when you did these things for me,

I used to be really touched.

But now I feel awkward and uncomfortable.

I'm uncomfortable about your visits, too.

I hate it.

How else can I see you?

You won't answer my calls or reply to my texts.

So what am I supposed to do?

I told you that all this is useless.

It was about Saebyeol.

It wasn't about me, but Saebyeol.

Saebyeol really wants to see her dad.

Is that so hard?

Is that it?

I've been busy.

If this is about Saebyeol,

I'll figure something out.

If it's too hard for you, I'll ask my fiancée.

What?

I'm her mom, and I'm right here,

but you want to make Saebyeol an illegitimate child

and have people look down on her?

No.

I'm never going to let

Saebyeol be treated that way.

Never.

Lee Nayeon, why are you so stubborn?

Why are you making me so sick of you?

Stop screaming, Kang Taejun.

I came here to ease your burden.

I'll accept our breakup.

You don't have to come back to me.

But be a father to Saebyeol.

You have to tell Sejin.

Tell her about Saebyeol

and get Sejin to accept her.

And be

a proud father to Saebyeol.

I came here to tell you that.

Maybe I have a twin sister.

Maybe there's a secret behind my birth.

Wouldn't it be nice

if you had powerful in-laws

to help you when you needed it?

Which bed will make us happier

when we wake up every morning?

I'm giving this to you so that your cheap taste

won't rub off on my daughter.

Do you know

what Yang Malsuk did to me?

When his wife and daughter are right here,

why would he marry another woman? Why?

Mom, I'm so sorry...
