[Episode 12]

Director, have you arrived?

Yes, come to room number 4.

Go in now.

There you are, Honey...

Look here.

Madam...!

What do you think you're doing here?

And who is that woman?

Director.

I swear I don't know who this woman is.

Who are you?

I'm sorry.

Manager Koo.

What are you saying?

Hyun-ah sent you a pre-recorded video?

Watch this.

Hyun-ah sent this to me.

Manager Koo, by the time you see this,

I'll be away on business to Shanghai.

Hyun-ah...

I'm bashful, so I'm sending you this once I've left Seoul.

When I get back, let's have lunch together.

What are you doing here, Attorney Cha?

I have an appointment here, but I entered the wrong room.

Is that true?

Why would I ever lie to you, Director?

Cha Gun-woo.

Yes?

You told me earlier in the rest lounge...

that you have an important meeting tonight.

Was this the location?

Yes.

What a small world.

It's not often people run into each other in a restaurant.

But you entered the wrong room and ran into us.

That's why you can never get away with anything.

The world continues to turn,

and by running away, you only invite karma.

You're right, Director.

You can't get away with anything.

Everything comes back around like a boomerang.

Then I'll be on my way now.

Se-na, when is your boyfriend going to arrive?

He said that he's on his way, but he must be running late.

I'm sorry, Director.

After seeing this video,

do you still think that she committed suicide?

Based on her diary and this video,

she wouldn't have taken her own life.

Do you think someone pushed Hyun-ah that day?

What?

Are you suspecting murder?

Am I wrong?

You know more than anyone that she was a strong person.

How can this be...?

I'm going to get to the bottom of this.

I'll find out the truth behind her death.

Hyun-ah...

I'm heading back to Sokcho now.

Right now?

Yes.

I'm going to search around the vacation home.

I might find a clue regarding her death.

I'll go with you.

Jin Song-ah, you stay here for now.

I'll go alone.

Manager Koo!

I'll call you when I arrive.

What happened on that day?

I'm sorry, Director.

He had an emergency, so it can't be helped.

I'll leave for today.

Director.

I'll go and see you tomorrow with the business plans.

Really?

Then I'll see you tomorrow.

Goodbye.

Gun-woo, you're still here?

What if someone sees us?

Follow me now.

Why did you show up there?

I'll tell you the truth.

I overheard you talking with Detective Kim.

Were you following me?

I thought you'd worry,

so I didn't tell you that I'm going to meet Detective Kim.

Se-na.

I cancelled my meeting with Detective Kim...

and met with Director Hong instead.

She's been suspecting us.

I lied to her and told her that I'd introduce her to my boyfriend,

because I wanted to protect you.

But when I saw you there,

I had second thoughts.

I wanted to tell her that Cha Gun-woo's my man.

Do you know how much I wanted to tell her that?

Still, I had no choice.

But because you refuse to leave Song-ah,

I can't put you in danger because of my feelings.

I'm sorry.

I didn't know that you care about me this much.

Trust me.

My feelings will never change.

Se-na.

I'm satisfied as long as I can look at you.

Like now.

Why are you so late?

I had plans.

Don't stay out so late.

Stop fighting with Mom.

Even if you're angry, let it go.

You're a nice person, Sister.

Alright. Don't worry.

Don't be so angry.

Mom will understand you someday.

Hyun-ah, you're on my side, right?

Do I have to say it?

It'll be alright.

I'm cheering for you.

Fighting!

Thanks. You're the best.

Did you sleep well?

Yea.

Kang-min didn't come home last night, either?

I can't get in touch with him.

I don't care if you take time off of work,

as long as you find him!

Yes.

You should ask your assistant to do that,

not Kang-mo...

If my assistant can do it,

I wouldn't ask Kang-mo to do it!

And instead of loafing around at home,

you look for Kang-min, too!

You're his mother, but you don't even worry about him.

Stop putting this on me.

I'm worried sick about Kang-min.

Just because you say so?

You were relaxing with a facial pack last night.

That's not how a worried mother behaves!

I'll be on my way.

He's full-grown, and he left on his own,

so how do you expect me to find him?

He takes everything out on his wife!

Why does your father treat me like this?

There you go overreacting again.

You didn't do your homework, did you?

Homework?

Ah, something you muttered about water?

The softness of water.

So what is that about anyways?

I was curious all day yesterday.

What is it?

Hey, you think you're better than me because you graduated from Harvard?

I've raised you, and now you're acting like an insolent brat!

Tell me what it is now!

Lao-tse teaches that you should live like water.

Ha!

The world is a battlefield.

Living like fire makes much more sense.

You need to be ruthless, and if you live like water,

you'll get eaten alive!

That's why Lao-tse's got nothing on Confucius.

What?

[Employee reassignment notice]

[Attorney Cha Gun-woo is being reassigned to the Russian branch.]

Attorney Cha from the legal team has arrived.

Tell him to come inside.

Yes.

What's going on?

Were you the one who reassigned me to the Russian branch?

I did.

How can I expect you to break up with Song-ah...

when you see her every day?

It's out of sight, out of mind.

I believe that I've explained myself for what happened yesterday.

Do you think this is about what happened yesterday?

Is it not?

Can you explai these pictures to me?

I don't want you to see my daughter ever again.

Come to my office right now!

Did Cha Gun-woo finally see them?

You took our picture at the hotel.

How do you know that?

Gun-woo, what's wrong?

Did something happen?

You startled me...

Why are you behaving like this?

Stop being angry and explain it to me.

Did you send those pictures to the director?

Of course not.

Those pictures were sent to me as well.

What do you mean?

I uploaded our pictures to my private homepage,

but I think I was hacked.

I think the pictures got out.

What?

Why did you upload those pictures?

I wanted to hold onto our memories.

But someone sent me a threatening letter...

asking what would happen if the director saw our pictures.

Is that true?

I think someone found out and decided to blackmail us.

What should we do?

Who's responsible for this?

Song-ah.

Se-na, what are you doing here?

I had to consult the attorney about a new product that we're developing.

Since I'm done here, I'll leave the two of you alone.

Gun-woo, you don't look so well.

No, it's nothing.

You don't have to hide it from me.

I know that it's been difficult for you.

Did my mom really order you to go to Russia?

No, it's not like that.

She doesn't mix her family with business,

so don't start making assumptions.

This is good.

It's more impressive than I thought.

Not at all...

You're too kind, Director.

I'm still lacking in many ways.

I look forward to your guidance.

And you're humble?

We're in the middle of a meeting. Let's talk later.

Didn't I say that I'm in a meeting?

I'll leave the two of you alone.

Song-ah's expression tells me that it's important.

I'll come and see you again this afternoon.

Please excuse me.

Okay. We'll do that.

Did you reassign Gun-woo to Russia?

That's why you decided to interrupt my meeting?

It may seem like nothing to you,

but it's a big deal to me!

This is a place of business.

How dare you raise your voice at me?

Can't you separate family from business?

I could ask you the same thing.

Why are you letting your personal feelings affect your business decisions?

You're sending him away to break us apart!

Since you know now, stop seeing him.

Why are you doing this?

You didn't even give me a reason why you're doing this!

What has he done that's so wrong?

That's enough!

Tell me why you're behaving like this!

Why can't you just accept that I have my reasons?

Mom, you've always been like this!

You've always forced your will on me!

What did you say?

Get out.

I said get out!

You're in a good mood today?

I've been looking for you, but I didn't know you'd be here.

You didn't get your phone,

so I thought you were outside of the company.

Chief, why were you looking for me?

I'm temporarily handling the manager's duties.

Oh, I see.

Let's have lunch together sometime.

Sure, why not.

I'll contact you soon.

Excuse me.

Young-suk, it's been a long time.

I was wondering if you heard from Kang-min.

Really?

The entire family is worried sick.

Yea.

Let me know if he contacts you.

Okay. See you.

Chief.

Manager Koo is in Sokcho right now.

Is that true?

Did you get in touch with him?

Last night, I met him at the bar where he called for me.

Really?

Jin Song-ah, you must be confused as well.

I didn't think he'd head back to Sokcho again.

If he contacts me again, I'll let you know.

Yea, Se-na.

I called you out because you seemed down.

You can tell me about your troubles.

I can keep a secret.

Thanks for offering.

You're having a hard time, aren't you?

I feel bad towards Gun-woo.

My mom's gone too far.

How can she send him to Russia?

Why did she even approve of our wedding?

She had Cha Gun-woo trailed.

That slipped out...

Is that true?

You didn't hear that from me.

How could she?

Gun-woo was probably suffering this entire time.

Gun-woo kept this from me in order to protect me.

He was worried that a rift would form between me and my mom.

Mom has no idea how deep Gun-woo really is.

I'm so disappointed in her.

I never knew she'd go this far.

With her so opposed to your wedding,

must you marry Cha Gun-woo?

Song-ah, I'm telling you this as your friend.

Marriages often fail without the blessing of your parent.

I've seen plenty of marriages end up in divorce that way.

Marriage is based on reality.

It involves not only the two of you,

but your families as well.

Is Cha Gun-woo really the right man to join your family?

Yea, Do-joon.

Sis, Mom collapsed due to her high blood pressure.

What did you say?

Samba, samba, samba, samba~

You're the one I love~

Why are you so happy to be cleaning?

Have you lost your sanity?

You and that mouth...

Being ugly isn't shameful,

but an ugly tongue will follow you forever!

Let me tell you why.

Someone with three 5-story buildings is determined to make Se-na his wife!

Jackpot!

Now that I see it, she's not only my niece,

but my winning lottery ticket!

Stop laughing.

You're going to lose your jaw.

Right, right.

But a man of that caliber would kick back an apartment building...

to his new in-laws, right?

Nonsense.

Those are the ambitions of a thief.

Are you selling off your niece?

It's the very least that Se-na can do for me!

If I didn't empty my bank account to send her to college,

she wouldn't have had a chance to go to school!

You're going to flaunt that for the rest of your life?

You can't read a book for the life of you,

but why do you have such a good memory?

Anyways, is Se-na running the company by herself?

I need to see her if I want to set her up.

She's not getting her phone.

It feels like she's ignoring your calls...

You and that mouth....

You've got no chance against me.

What do you mean Kang-min's in the countryside?

He's out there to get some fresh air.

If he's had enough, tell him to come back home.

The longer he stays away from home,

the more humiliation and confusion he'll face.

How do you know that so well?

I've experienced it in my younger days.

And you're bragging about it?

Do you really want to talk about your past...

in front of your children?

Is Kang-min still distraught over Manger Jin by any chance?

No, he's not.

Show everyone what you're capable of while Kang-min is gone.

Your father talks about Kang-min all the time,

but you're the oldest son in our family, Kang-mo.

I don't want Kang-min's job.

Why not?

What makes you any less than him?

You graduated from Harvard and you're a member of MENSA!

You've got everything, but you lack ambition.

You're a man, but you're not greedy for anything!

I don't know, did you adopt me by any chance?

Now you're asking to be hit by lightning.

Hey, you brat!

When I think about what I've been through...

after giving birth to you, I just...!

It's frightening to see how much you take after your mother!

Sis.

Where's Mom?

Doctor.

She's doing fine, so you don't have to worry.

But if she keeps going through this, it could get serious,

so please be careful.

A person who has high blood pressure must avoid stress.

Her blood pressure was over 200 earlier today.

She's taken medication, and she's resting now.

She needs her rest, so please give her some peace.

Yes, Doctor. Thank you.

Sis.

Is something going to happen to Mom?

Don't worry. She'll be alright.

Hyun-ah...

Where are you, Hyun-ah?

My daughter, Hyun-ah...

I miss you.

[My love, Song-ah]

[My love, Gun-woo]

Are you busy?

No. I'm fine.

Why couldn't I get a hold of you last night?

I was worried about you.

I see.

From now on, don't worry about me,

even if you can't get a hold of me.

What do you mean by that?

Gun-woo...

Song-ah, wait.

It's too stuffy in here.

Should we step outside?

You look down,

so maybe we should go out for a drive?

Gun-woo, I'm sorry.

For what?

What are you sorry for?

I'm the one who should be sorry.

Song-ah.

I don't think I can marry you.

[Subtitles provided by MBC]

[Preview]

Chief, did you follow me here?

The TF team consists of the two of us,

so if I don't look after you, who will?

You want to comfort me again?

Detective Kim!

If you don't open the case again,

I can report you for negligence!

How can you show yourself here?

Manager Koo Kang-min is suspecting that Jin Hyun-ah was murdered.

But he doesn't have any proof.

You've already closed the case as a suicide.

Remnants of her scarf were found, burned.

Se-na? Detective Kim?
