Original subtitles

- You look natural in them. - Right.

Hold on a second.

Wait.

This woman...

That annoying woman.

Why is she here in tennis clothes?

She seemed like a professional athlete.

She was great at tennis.

She was flying across the court.

She may play tennis well, but she had no basic manners.

That's right.

She introduced herself as a director at Mint.

Oh Hee Eun.

Yes, I think that's her name.

She played tennis and was flying across the court?

She looked like a professional player.

Sang Jun,

it's her. Mr. Sin's ex-wife.

What?

She's the woman with a terminal illness?

What? A terminal illness?

There's no way this woman is terminal.

She's fooling us all.

(Episode 45)

Mom, is it bad?

Can you manage without going to the ER?

Let me sleep it off.

I'm exhausted.

Dad and I talked to your doctor together.

He now knows how sick you are.

I'd like to sleep.

The ambulance is here. You should head downstairs.

What ambulance?

I'll pack a bag for you tomorrow and send it in the morning.

Ji Hye, what on earth is she saying?

Mr. Sin called a private ambulance for you.

It's been informed to take you to Hankuk University Hospital.

Your condition might worsen if you stay home.

Did Dad say that?

I'd rather stay home. I don't have the strength to move.

If you decline,

- I'll ask the paramedic for help... - What?

Are you saying you will force me out?

Ma'am, I'll talk to Dad myself.

I was told to move you to the hospital...

before Mr. Sin gets home.

Please get up.

Fine. I'll leave and die.

Ji Hye, let's go to the residence hotel...

your dad booked.

I don't want to be in a hospital.

What are you talking about? She can't be terminally ill.

You also think she doesn't look ill, right?

Hey, you know I was a PE major.

Considering her jumps, steps, and strokes,

I'm sure she plays tennis like a professional.

And she must've played until recently.

I agree.

She didn't look like a patient when she jumped and ran.

Why would she lie then?

I guess she's been playing sick...

to come between them.

One victim at a time is enough.

Seung Gu, do you know anyone from Mint Communications?

I did have a few meetings with people from the company.

Just pretend I'm interested in doing their commercials...

and ask around secretly.

Ask what?

Who is in charge of Gipeun Cosmetics's projects.

And what she is like.

Okay.

Why do they want to talk to us all of a sudden?

I don't know. And why only the two of us?

Where's So Rim?

She's not home yet.

Oh, right.

Back in college,

she was in the tennis club.

How can she play an intense sport like that when she's terminally ill?

I guess she has led a pretty easy life.

I mean, she made a scene kneeling down at Dad's restaurant.

And she can't be doing this somewhere else.

That's just who she is.

We should never let her near Mu Yeong for his own sake.

Gun Woo, you should find Neurosurgeon Jeong Jin Woo...

of Hankuk University Hospital.

I will.

By the way, why is she doing all this?

Does she want to get back together with Mr. Sin?

Maybe she realized she couldn't find a decent man...

like Sin Mu Yeong.

But I don't think that is all.

What do you mean?

Mu Yeong's company has been seeing rapid growth.

And a lot of foreign investors are showing interest.

For the money. It has to be about his company.

I knew it. She must be lying for a reason.

I asked Seung Gu...

to look into Mint Communications. Let's wait and see.

Sang Jun, thank you.

You're trying really hard as the eldest son-in-law.

I'm just upset. You know I've been there.

I wonder if Young Sik thought...

he could trifle with us like this when he lied to us.

My family...

has been deceived for 20 years.

So I don't want you guys to go through the same thing.

Did you hear from Young Sik yet?

Apparently, he texts Eun Ju.

Oh, right. Are the articles about lawsuits true?

Yes. I won't forgive him.

And I won't let So Rim fall for her either.

Anyway, without telling So Rim just yet,

we'll investigate further.

We should tell her after we find some hard evidence.

(Hankuk University Hospital, Neurosurgery)

(Professor Jeong Jin Woo)

(Professor Jeong Jin Woo)

(Professor Jeong Jin Woo, Neurosurgeon)

Yes, Mr. Sin.

I'm sorry to call you so late, Mr. Kang.

It's all right, sir.

Here's the thing. Do you remember that we gave some money...

to the Children's Ward of Hankuk University Hospital...

on Children's Day last year?

We talked to the hospital director back then.

I'd like to speak with him on the phone tomorrow.

Okay. I'll give him a call.

Thank you.

(Professor Jeong Jin Woo, Neurosurgeon)

Gun Woo.

- Hey. - Hi.

Didn't you go to work today?

- I'm off today. - I see.

You look great.

When is your wedding?

We are waiting until the weather gets warmer.

- Make sure to invite me. - Of course, I will.

What about the professor?

I asked the people from the department of neurosurgery.

Professor Jeong Jin Woo went to Tokyo...

for a conference yesterday.

He's coming back tomorrow afternoon.

Why? Is something wrong?

I want to ask him something.

What is it?

There's someone I'm curious about...

I mean, there's someone I'm worried about among his patients.

Is it your family?

- Not really. - Then your patient?

She did come to my hospital for treatment.

I don't know what this is about, but you should come back tomorrow.

I will.

I have an operation to perform in the afternoon.

You should get going then.

Okay. I'll see you tomorrow.

Dr. Jeong is out at a conference, so I couldn't meet him.

(Teun Teun's mom)

Mr. Sin.

Mr. Gun Woo.

What brings you here?

Are you here to meet with Dr. Jeong?

I just had some tea with the hospital director.

I heard Dr. Jeong Jin Woo...

was attending a conference.

Right. Actually, I came here to meet him,

but I couldn't.

I'm sorry for all the trouble I've caused you.

Are you here because of the photo?

Photo?

It's nothing.

Dr. Jeong is coming back tomorrow.

So I'll come again and meet him.

Thank you for doing this.

Do you have time for some tea?

That sounds lovely.

- Let's go. - Okay.

The man I talked to on the phone sounded quite young.

But the doctor on the website...

looked older than that.

So I wanted to check it myself.

I see.

So if... I'm just saying hypothetically.

If she's not terminally ill,

why do you think she lied about something like that?

Do you have any idea?

I'm not sure.

Did she want to separate So Rim and you...

and get you back like that?

I'm sure she's not doing this for love.

I'm glad to hear that.

That makes it easier to get rid of her.

Well, I mean...

There could be a miracle, and she could recover completely.

That's what I meant.

It's possible to bring a criminal charge...

for defaming Mr. Lee Sang Jun's reputation.

We also want to file a civil suit for the damage.

How much would be the compensation?

We'd like you to set it as high as possible.

That's for the plaintiff...

to decide.

We will think about it.

Your commercial contract has been canceled...

due to the rumors about your hidden child,

so you can decide the amount of compensation based on that.

You can also demand compensation...

for emotional distress caused by the incident.

I hear such compensation is rarely recognized by the court.

Still, I will give it a shot.

I wept and suffered a lot...

because of the DNA test results.

You will be careful dealing with the media too.

Your cousin might want...

to file a civil suit against your mother.

I'm prepared for that.

By the way, why did your cousin...

tell you such lies 20 years ago?

I've also been thinking hard to figure out why.

This is nice. Make it look a little darker here.

Okay.

How may I help you?

I was wondering if an adult could take a class.

Of course. When would you like to start?

Now.

Did you take lessons in the past?

- Yes. - You're really good.

Thank you.

(Closed for a week due to personal reasons)

It smells amazing.

Is it done? Shall I taste it for you?

Stop bothering me and leave.

I apologized, didn't I?

Was that an apology? It was a joke.

You put on a show to appeal to Mr. Cha.

I did do it to appeal to him,

but I was sincere as well.

Whatever. Just go away.

Auntie.

Don't bother her when she has a lot on her mind. Go home.

I'll help her instead.

You don't have to.

I'm partially responsible for your father's poor health.

What do you want me to do?

Shall I prepare the ingredients for the spinach and cheese curry?

Why are you here and not at our cafe?

Soo Bin's there right now. You should be there too.

Oh? Hang on.

Hello, this is Today's Curry.

I'm sorry but for the next week...

What?

Just a moment, please.

So Rim.

It's Choi Soo Jin, the team leader you worked with.

She said you didn't answer your phone.

She was nearby on business and didn't get to eat lunch,

and asked if she can drop by.

We're not open for...

I told her,

but she said she wanted to taste your food.

She seemed to know you were cooking on your own.

If she's someone you're close to, let her come by.

It would be nice to have someone taste it for you.

I can't guarantee it'll be good, but she can come.

Okay.

She can't guarantee it'll be good, but you can come.

But if you complain about it, I will kick you out.

- Hey! - What?

Quit with the nonsense and peel the onions.

What?

Okay, bye.

She's hungry and wants three portions.

Okay. Peel the onions.

Not the onions again.

I'll bring goggles from now on.

Over there.

I know.

Welcome.

So Rim, I brought two more people who haven't eaten yet.

The curry smells amazing.

Take a seat.

You have to eat what you're served.

Here's the curry.

Thank you.

So Rim, you really made this?

I should take a photo to send to my wife.

Enjoy your meal.

I will, thanks.

Ms. Sin? Shall we eat?

Yes, of course. Let's eat.

It's still cold outside.

The curry's just as good as your father's.

We broke up.

I never agreed to it.

If a couple can't agree on it, it's as good as a breakup.

Ms. So Rim.

I believe you feel the same as I do.

Why are you making it so hard for me?

Ms. So Rim.

Treat your dying wife well.

We can't mourn every single...

dying person as if they're family.

She and I divorced long ago,

and I'm just helping with her treatment.

I'm so upset that I'm not your first love.

Forgive me.

For failing to wait until I met you.

Ever since Ms. Oh's visit,

my father has been very ill.

I don't know what to say.

But Ms. So Rim.

Please give me just one chance.

For what?

To start over...

our lives together.

Sin Mu Yeong.

You don't have to be so polite in this situation.

Do you have to take in a treacherous fraud...

who came back asking for love because she's dying?

Tell her to die somewhere else.

Hyun Jung.

Tell her to leave with Ji Hye.

You raised her daughter who had nothing to do with you.

Jang Hyun Jung!

What more does the cuckoo want?

She left her child with you,

and she still wants more?

Stop it.

I'll tell Ms. So Rim about Ji Hye later.

So Rim.

You didn't know that Sin Ji Hye wasn't Mu Yeong's daughter, did you?

Ji Hye isn't Mu Yeong's daughter.

She married him while she was pregnant with another man's child.

Let's go.

This is why Mu Yeong's frustratingly sweet.

"She's not my daughter, so don't mind her."

He never said that, did he?

He didn't.

You love So Rim like crazy,

but you still feel so responsible for Ji Hye.

You fed and clothed her and paid for her studies.

Send her away.

Stop it. That's not a topic for this time or place.

Hee Eun came back because Ji Hye's still around!

Pretending to be terminally ill!

What are you talking about?

What?

What...

does that mean?

Oh, well...

What does that mean?

We were going to tell you once we had proof.

I got worked up.

Tell me what's going on.

Sang Jun recently did...

a fashion shoot at a tennis court.

I heard about that.

That day,

he saw a woman running around, playing tennis really well.

Mr. Wang had taken a few photos with his phone,

and it was Hee Eun.

Just so we could be sure,

Gun Woo went over to see her doctor today.

He was away at a conference.

Yes. I met Dr. Gun Woo at the hospital.

We still suspect her,

but her doctor returns tomorrow.

We should confirm it...

before confronting Hee Eun.

Up here...

is a monster that's killing me.

So what if they did?

She begged and said...

she wanted to spend her remaining days as a family!

The upcoming spring...

(Today's Curry)

will be my last.

Can't you show mercy...

to a person headed to her grave?

I must meet her.

There's no way I'm forgiving her.

I've been reading up on people who fought and won against...

their illness.

Miracles happen more often than you think.

I have a feeling that a miracle will find your mother as well.

I really hope it does.

Wait.

What is this?

A chewable vitamin tablet.

It tastes nice.

It really does taste nice.

Ji Hye, how about a wager?

What will you do for me if your mother...

is granted a miracle?

What?

- Did I make you wait? - Mom.

I thought long and hard about it,

and driving an asset like you out of the company...

seems unfair.

Maybe you should file a report...

to the Ministry of Employment and Labor?

I can't say it didn't cross my mind,

but if I do,

a call will be made to the company,

and the CEO will be given a warning.

Doesn't he deserve it?

Mom, that's...

He's Ji Hye's father.

Exactly.

For Sin Mu Yeong's sake,

an asset like you...

should become his second-in-command.

Aren't I right?

Report him to the ministry.

Sure, I will.

So how are you feeling?

Well...

The pain is manageable today.

I'll pray for your illness to go away...

as if you had never been sick.

Right. I hope for that too.

I'm sorry...

for not telling you about Ji Hye sooner.

Whether she's related to you or not...

doesn't change anything.

Not long after our wedding,

I found out that she had married me...

while bearing another man's child.

We separated right away, and I filed for divorce.

She had Ji Hye during that time but took off afterward.

You could've had Ms. Oh's family take Ji Hye.

Why did you raise her instead?

Ji Hye came into the world with an illness.

I was going to send her away once she got better,

but the timing wasn't right.

I became fond of her too.

Her not being terminal...

doesn't mean we'll be back together.

I'll be severing our contract with Mint,

and I will sue Oh Hee Eun on charges of fraud.

I'll be pressing criminal charges against Cho Nam Soo as well.

Yes, Mr. Kang.

What?

It seems like Cho Nam Soo filed a report...

to the Ministry for wrongful dismissal.

That actually works for me.

Prepare to take action.

Criminal charges must be brought up against Cho Nam Soo.

Yes, sir.

I'm severing our contract with Mint.

Pay for breach of contract if we must.

I don't mind it being taken to court either.

Also, call reception on the first floor...

and have security block Oh Hee Eun from entering the building.

Sir, is that really necessary?

I will soon sue her on charges of fraud.

Right, I see.

And Mr. Kang, thank you for joining me for lunch today.

What I happened to hear about Ms. Sin...

will be kept a secret.

I wish for that as well. Keep up the good work, then.

Sure.

(CEO Sin Mu Yeong)

(Hankuk University Hospital, Neurosurgeon Jeong Jin Woo)

Hello?

Hello, is this Dr. Jeong Jin Woo?

We talked briefly on the phone yesterday.

I'd like to know more about Oh Hee Eun...

who is one of your patients.

Could you make time for me this evening?

Are you cleaning up?

Hey.

I'm going to practice minimalism and stay organized.

You're home early though.

I only had a morning shift today.

Oh, right.

Did you talk to your lawyer?

Yes.

Seung Gu and I met with him this morning.

What is all this?

They're headed for the trash.

I also promised myself to only buy what I really need.

I've been leaning toward minimalism as well.

What on earth is this?

Gosh, these are spectacular.

Who drew these? A fan?

Did you make me look handsome?

How could I make you look more handsome than this?

I'm done, and you look great.

There you go. Congratulations on passing the audition.

- I love it. - Congrats.

It's all thanks to you.

Once I get the down payment for the movie,

I'll help you purchase the photo studio.

Forget about it.

I only work there part-time to make a few bucks.

It's not my dream to run a small photo studio.

You can start small...

and make a name for yourself.

I want to win myself the chance to study abroad.

Study abroad?

I didn't know there were such things.

(The 1st Art Competition for Young Artists)

The top prize...

is a full scholarship to an art program in France.

I want to win it,

and I think I have it in the bag.

Mom told me to rise to stardom fast...

so that I could pay for your art school.

It's fine. Just wish me luck instead.

It'd be insane...

to hang out with you in Paris while I'm there filming a movie.

All right. How about this, then?

(Paris...)

"Let's meet..."

"in Paris."

"Jang Young Sik."

Nice.

He's still asleep.

Young Sik.

My gosh, you need a doctor.

Sang Jun, I'm too sick to do it myself.

Can you submit this for me?

Of course. When's the deadline?

It's 6 p.m.

(Let's meet in Paris. Jang Young Sik)

"Let's meet in Paris."

What's that?

"Young Sik."

Young Sik must've drawn this for you.

Sang Jun.

What?

A penny for your thoughts?

I need to tell Young Sik something.

Sang Jun.

Ji Woo.

Will you come back home now?

Dad isn't here.

I'm so lonely.

Eun Ju.

Why are you here?

Are you here to sue me too?

Where's Young Sik now?

I don't know.

I heard you two were in touch.

But he doesn't tell me where he is wandering about.

I bet he's looking for his mother.

When you hear from him,

say that I have something to tell him about his mother.

Make sure to tell him that I want to look for her with him.

Would he look for his mother...

with someone who filed lawsuits against him?

It's him who lied to his family for 20 years!

Get out of here!

In a few days,

he will get a call from the police.

And he will soon get a complaint from the court.

Are you here to threaten me?

Get out! I want you to leave now!

Get out of here this instant!

Dad.

Dad...

Dad.

(One unread message)

This is Reporter Ko Hyun Ju from Exclusive Dispatch.

I'd like to hear your story...

about Actor Lee Sang Jun's legal action.

(Eun Ju)

(Eun Ju)

Hey.

Where are you now?

When will you come home?

I said I'd go back home after finding my mom.

Sang Jun says he has something to tell you about your mom.

Just come home.

Come home and ask him to drop the charges.

About Ji Woo...

Is he still staying there?

I'm on my way to pick him up now.

So you have to come home now!

Unless you want to see me kill myself.

Hey, Ji Woo.

Why is your great-grandmother coming late?

She's always punctual for appointments.

I guess she's tied up in traffic.

Who bought the sirutteok?

Sang Jun's mother sent it by Gun Woo.

We've been through a lot, so she probably wants us...

to exorcise evil spirits with it.

Then our whole family should eat it.

Anyway, I'm so happy...

that I can be here with you.

I'm happy too.

Look at you caring about each other.

People might think you two are father and son.

All right. I think that's Ms. Yoon Gab Bun.

What?

Jang Ji Woo!

Mom.

Dad.

Ji Woo.

What are you doing here? Let's go home.

Ji Woo, what are you doing at a stranger's house?

Go ahead and make up with your dad.

He's here because he missed you a lot.

This isn't a stranger's house.

We are in-laws.

I'm sorry for causing you so much trouble.

Ji Woo, let's go.

I'm not going.

Jang Ji Woo! What are you doing at someone else's house?

Why are you yelling at him?

You're the one who used Ji Woo...

causing all the mess.

How could you say such a thing?

She's not wrong about that.

How could you tell such a lie to your own child?

I mean, for 20 years.

Mom. Honey. That's enough.

You can't be like this when Ji Woo can hear you.

They owe us an apology, but we've been putting up with them.

Tae Ju went through a lot.

Ji Woo, let's just go home.

I don't want to live with Dad.

I'm grateful that you raised me.

But I can't forgive that you lied to me.

Let's get out of here and talk.

I said no!

He says no. Ji Woo, come here.

Honey... Ji Woo!

Why are you doing this to us?

Is this Sang Jun's idea?

Mr. Jang.

I don't know what it is that you misunderstood,

but that's not why my children brought Ji Woo here.

When Ji Woo feels better,

we will send him back home, of course.

What gives you the right to do this?

Ji Woo is my son.

As his elders, we should focus...

on soothing his wounded heart for now.

I'm the one to soothe his wounded heart.

He's my son.

But Ji Woo refused it.

He's your son, but you never understand him.

Mr. Jang, anyone can make a mistake.

What's difficult is to apologize for what you did.

Are you trying to lecture us now?

What did you just say?

What do you think you are doing?

How could you make a scene at your in-laws' of all places?

Grandmother, we're here to get our son back.

But you're putting the cart before the horse.

Young Sik.

You should've come back home first.

You should've asked Sang Jun and Tae Ju for forgiveness...

and straightened out the misunderstanding with us.

And you should've waited until Ji Woo sorted himself out.

I'm the one who should accept apologies.

Let's go home, Young Sik.

What is the misunderstanding you have had about us?

And what made you hold such grudges against us?

Let's go and have a heart-to-heart talk.

Ask Sang Jun and Auntie first.

About what they did to me.

Young Sik, come on!

I'm leaving now for today.

Once Ji Woo comes home,

the four of us will never come back.

- Let's go. - What...

- Gosh, Ms. Yoon. - Oh, dear.

Are you all right?

I'm fine.

I'm so sorry that you had to see all this.

You should go to my room and lie down for a while.

- Hey, get her some water. - Okay.

All right. This way.

Where do you think things went wrong?

Where did we go wrong?

The day Auntie and Sang Jun...

lied to me.

About what? What did they lie about?

I'm hungry. Should we order something to eat?

Jang Young Sik! Are you seriously...

Auntie.

I was passing by and saw the lights were on.

Young Sik.

It's been a while.

Have you been doing well?

Mom is lying sick at Tae Ju's parents' place.

Once she gets better,

Ji Woo will bring her home.

Did Ji Woo call you?

Tae Ju's mother called.

Where will you go next?

Why do you ask?

Tomorrow,

I'd like us to get together as a family for a nice dinner.

To celebrate your return,

I want to prepare a lavish meal.

I'll willingly...

accept the invitation.

Good.

See you tomorrow.

I'm sorry.

I got really upset earlier...

and told him everything.

Good for you.

We'll know for sure tomorrow.

Won't that be tonight?

The doctor's here.

Great.

Hello, Dr. Jeong.

Thank you for coming.

I thought we'd be alone.

We're all family.

- Please, sit. - Okay.

I'm an orthopedist myself,

but it's quite unusual...

to visit a patient's guardian at home.

How admirable.

Ms. Oh pleaded that I do so.

I'll get to the point.

Is Oh Hee Eun seriously ill?

Yes. As I told her daughter on the phone last time,

she has about six months left, a year at most.

Could there be a miracle?

We hope so.

Doctor.

I'm planning to sue...

Ms. Oh for fraud.

Unless you wish to get dragged into the lawsuit,

it would be best if you tell the truth.

Hankuk University Hospital's neurosurgeon Jeong Jin Woo.

It's the same name,

but a completely different face.

Shouldn't you have prepared a bit better?

What's your real name?

Are you...

currently dating Oh Hee Eun?

Speak up right now.

I think this is nicer than yesterday's.

Did you stir-fry the onions a bit longer today?

How can you tell?

If he can't, no one can. He's a curry expert.

I'm thinking of opening just for lunch starting next week.

So Rim, you can do whatever you want.

Dad. I want to work at the restaurant.

- What? - Let her.

It would be nice to have a successor.

She quit and is between jobs right now.

Mom. That woman.

She's not terminal.

She lied.

- What? - What do you mean?

At Sang Jun's shoot,

someone took a photo of her playing tennis.

Even if you're terminal,

can't some people play tennis?

If that weird ex-wife...

hangs around instead of dying,

that's an even bigger problem.

Don't even think of it. Stay away from him.

I wasn't going to say we'd get back together.

Good.

Hey, Ji Woo.

Do you want some of So Rim's curry?

I had some already.

- Grandma. - What?

Can my grandma spend the night here?

She can.

No, stay in bed.

Relax and make yourself at home.

I can't.

This is such an embarrassment.

It's nothing of the sort.

In-laws are family too, so don't say that.

Mother.

Oh, dear.

I keep hearing the voice...

of my dead eldest son.

Grandma.

You and I can sleep in Tae Ju's room tonight.

I'll take you home tomorrow.

Yes, let's do that, Ji Woo.

Let's go home together.

Okay.

Grandma, are you okay now?

I feel all better now, thanks to Ji Woo.

Jang Ji Woo.

Don't go anywhere ever again.

Thank you, Ji Woo.

I'm sorry.

Don't say that from now on.

Stay here.

We're gathering for a family dinner.

Will my parents be here too?

Yes.

If it makes you feel uncomfortable, you don't have to join us.

No, I'll join you.

(Hankuk University Hospital)

Oh Hee Eun?

When did she come in?

Very recently.

I don't recognize the name.

Wait.

Do you not know her?

Sorry. I don't know her.

She was diagnosed with a brain tumor.

I don't know her at all.

Professor Jeong remembers patients from ten years ago.

I see. Thank you, professor.

Sure.

- Thanks for your time. - No problem.

As we thought, he didn't know her at all.

The fake doctor who talked to Mr. Sin on the phone was a gym trainer.

They're not dating,

but he was offered 2,000 dollars for taking the call.

He'll have told her that his cover was blown.

No. Mr. Sin told him to keep his mouth shut.

That if he talks, he'll get sued for fraud as well.

He was so charismatic.

He wouldn't dare talk.

If Ji Hye were to find out,

she won't want to see Hee Eun again,

even if she were her birth mother.

Her unrelated dad Mu Yeong...

did more than some dads.

What do you mean they're unrelated?

Ji Hye isn't Mu Yeong's daughter.

She married him while pregnant by another man.

That's why they got divorced.

She left her child with him...

and got remarried right away.

So Rim.

You knew all this?

I found out yesterday.

Ji Hye got really sick as a newborn,

so he meant to send her to Hee Eun's parents...

after she got better, but he couldn't.

That's how he ended up raising her, despite his family's disapproval.

Shouldn't we tell her...

that her mother's faking her illness?

She'll be so sad and worried.

I'll tell her.

Hello, Ms. Kim.

If you're free this evening, I'd like to meet.

Will Mu Yeong be joining us?

No, it'll be just you and me.

How about the curry restaurant?

Sure. Sounds good.

We're here.

Hello.

- Goodness. Welcome. - Hey.

It's been a while since we had a bustling home.

Tae Ju, isn't it your first time...

having a meal with Gun Woo over on our side of the family?

It is.

Seeing him at your place makes me laugh for some reason.

You didn't have to cook so much.

We haven't had a feast in quite some time,

so I got greedy.

Ji Woo, shouldn't your parents be here?

- They're on their way. - Right.

Have a seat, everyone.

- There you go. - Welcome.

Yes, welcome.

We made a lot of pollack jeon which is Young Sik's favorite.

Enjoy as much as you can and take some home with you.

Sure. Thanks, Auntie.

- Right. - Take your seats.

Sure.

Eun Ju, you too.

For the first time, we're having a family meal...

with my new son-in-law.

We gathered you all here today...

so that we could bury the hatchet and clear misunderstandings.

Young Sik and Eun Ju, thank you for coming.

Why don't we enjoy the champagne today?

Sounds good.

I opened the bottle I've been cherishing.

- Cheers. - Thank you.

- Cheers. - Thanks.

It's delicious.

Please have your fill, Uncle.

That reminds me, Sang Jun.

I was served the document sent to me by the court.

Thanks to you, I'm experiencing new things.

I'll do my best to defend myself.

Sure thing.

My agency sued you for defamation of character...

and is holding you liable for damages.

Why don't we talk about this after dinner?

Grandma,

I'm too uncomfortable to stomach anything right now.

We should just talk first.

We'd like...

to hear from Young Sik first.

Young Sik.

Why...

did you fool us?

Young Sik.

Do you admit to lying to us?

Yes.

The skies gave me an opportunity.

It was a chance to get back at you.

And in the place of the baby we lost,

we were given Ji Woo...

who we could raise with love.

Get back at us for what?

For taking good care of you...

when my mom barely made ends meet?

Or...

was it for how I filmed with a broken arm...

so that I could earn money for your wedding?

Let me join in on that parade.

After I came to live with your family,

you never had to worry about family affairs.

You never had to unclog toilets...

or change the lights.

When people from the broadcasting station came by,

Eun Ju waited on them.

Even I unclogged toilets and changed the lights.

Young Sik.

Cut to the chase.

I doubt changing the lights...

infuriated you to the point...

that made you lie and get revenge on us.

That's right, Auntie.

The life insurance payout from my dad's death...

and the money from selling our house.

You took it all to pay off your debt.

You also spent it to buy Sang Jun a 10,000 dollar suit.

Your aunt is not insane!

What nonsense are you spewing?

Your mother took all that money.

Why won't you believe me?

I only believe what my mom told me.

Rather than believing your aunt who took you in as one of her own,

you're choosing to believe your mom who abandoned you?

Yes.

Fine.

You may believe whoever you want,

but...

I swear...

I didn't take the money.

She's right, Young Sik.

What do you take her for?

You know how she thinks about you.

What does she think about me?

She must've thought of me dearly...

not to have submitted...

my painting back then.

(The 1st Art Competition for Young Artists)

Young Sik.

Auntie.

My goodness.

It's splendid.

You did great.

The luck that helped Sang Jun pass the audition...

must be rubbing off on me as well.

Even as a kid,

you won all the art contests you entered.

Your father would be thrilled...

to see this painting from above.

I've been talking to him like I'm writing a letter...

asking him to watch over me.

And I'm sure he'll help.

Anyway, you should eat this.

You've been looking haggard these days.

Will you be pulling another all-nighter?

The D-day's just around the corner.

Right.

I'll stop bothering you and get going.

- Don't forget to eat, okay? - Sure.

All right. I'll get going.

(The 1st Art Competition for Young Artists)

He's still asleep.

Young Sik.

Didn't you say you had to submit the painting today?

Goodness, he's burning up.

My gosh, you need a doctor.

He has had the shivers for days.

Sleeping out in the cold...

- must've worsened his condition. - Young Sik.

You have to submit your painting today.

Young Sik, isn't it D-day? It's the 25th.

Right.

My gosh.

Sang Jun, I'm too sick to do it myself.

Can you submit this for me?

Of course. When's the deadline?

- It's 6 p.m. - Wait, 6 p.m.?

We should take my car.

It's the French Cultural Center, right?

- Yes, Auntie. - Good.

Don't worry. We'll submit this for you.

Don't worry about it. Meanwhile, you need a doctor.

Right. Please submit it for me.

Of course. My gosh.

- We should hurry. - Let's go, Mom.

It was the first and last art competition...

held by the French Cultural Center.

That painting...

was my last hope.

My last hope to study in France.

My last chance...

to escape your house...

and to live freely without having to tiptoe around you.

(Third Time's a Charm, Heading off to Study in France)

What?

No, please check again.

The name is Jang Young Sik.

The painting was submitted in the afternoon on the D-day.

Jang Young Sik, was it?

Yes, that's right. I drew the Venus,

and my watercolor painting is called "Mid-day in Spring."

I'm talented enough to make it to the finals.

Please check the name again.

Nothing was submitted under that name.

Nothing was submitted?

That's right. No one by that name submitted any artwork.

(Third Time's a Charm, Heading off to Study in France)

Were you worried about me leaving you?

Because you wouldn't have anyone to unclog the drains?

Or maybe, did you need me to take Sang Jun's photos?

Sang Jun, Se Ran,

answer him.

What on earth is he saying?

Young Sik's mistaken, right?

Is that why you lied about Ji Woo...

being Sang Jun's son?

Yes, I wanted to punish you...

for ruining my life.

I see.

You punished us.

For 20 years,

you fooled us.

They could've been stuck in traffic on their way...

and failed to meet the deadline.

Or maybe...

you mixed up the dates.

What's important though is...

that you wouldn't have won even if the painting had gotten submitted.

Why you...

Sang Min, you sorry excuse for a human being.

Just shut it, will you?

Young Sik, please.

What on earth happened, then?

What's the truth?

Young Sik.

We need to find your mom to settle this matter.

It's not like you're going to believe us.

Whether I believe it or not...

Auntie.

Say something, please.

If you didn't submit the painting,

if you still have it, please give it back.

It...

It means everything to me.

You wouldn't have won even if the painting had gotten submitted.

You're wrong.

Young Sik's painting...

was spectacular.

It was as if his deceased father...

had inspired him from the skies.

That's...

how splendid it was.

So you remember.

If you have it, please give it back.

Where is it?

Young Sik, that painting...

That painting...

I couldn't submit it.

I couldn't let you go to France...

and become more famous and recognized than Sang Jun.

I...

couldn't lose a manservant...

that I could order around at a cheap price.

I hated that painting.

Mom?

I couldn't let you...

become a more prominent figure that would outshine Sang Jun.

You were mooching off us,

and for that,

you needed to pay by serving us well.

I wanted to stop you from going to France...

and let you rot...

as a small-time photographer at a neighborhood photo studio.

It's why...

I burned that painting.

Mom?

Grandma.

I was right to get revenge.

She deserved to be stabbed in the back.

Gil Yeon.

Gil Yeon!

- Mom? - Mother?

Grandma!

- Gil Yeon... - Mom.

- Gil Yeon! - What's the matter?

Grandma!

Gil Yeon!

- Be careful. - Gil Yeon!

- Grandma? - Gil Yeon.

- My gosh. - Gil Yeon...

- Gil Yeon! - Grandma.

- Grandma... - My gosh.

- Mom, please. - Gil Yeon.

- Gil Yeon! - Grandma.

We're now even.

Sang Jun,

drop the lawsuit right away...

unless you want to be humiliated.

Young Sik.

Your painting.

Your mom ripped it outside the art studio...

so that we couldn't submit it.

Is that...

Is that all you could come up with, Sang Jun?

But...

The food is probably cold now.

I'll come back some other time.

Let's go, Eun Ju.

Mom.

- Mom. - Mother!

Hello.

Yes, hello.

Right. Ms. So Rim will be here shortly.

Please take a seat and wait.

Can I get you a beverage?

Coffee or milk tea?

Water will do. Thank you.

Right. Sure thing.

Who may you be though?

I'm a friend in the neighborhood who is close to the three siblings.

I see.

Isn't the restaurant open for business?

The chef collapsed after your visit,

so the restaurant's been closed.

I'm sorry to hear that.

But I believe Ms. Kim is responsible for that.

The younger brother and his wife...

wanted you to have this in return for your gift.

- May I open it? - Of course.

I hope this isn't anything childish...

like a photo of Mu Yeong and Ms. Kim.

The three siblings are classier than that.

(Condolences)

(Condolences)

(Closed for a week due to personal reasons)

Do you like it?

The frame wasn't cheap.

Darn it.

Look this way, Ms. Oh.

What do you think you're doing?

Smile.

I asked what you were doing.

Usually, people cry harder when they see a photo...

of the deceased smiling.

That's why I told you to smile.

So much for being terminal, Ms. Oh.

Get that out of my face!

Hey!

Stop it right now.

Darn it.

(Three Bold Siblings)

Your wife's family invited you over for dinner for the first time,

but you came home without getting to eat.

Something came up.

She's lying about being terminally ill.

Her being alive and kicking is even worse.

It's best that you remain single.

I had something to return.

I won't give up on us.

We need to find Young Sik's mother.

Find your mother, then.

And prove that Sang Jun is lying.

I'm pretty sure it's her.

I confirmed that her name was Choi Kyung Soon.

It's me, Young Sik's mom.

It's been a while, Auntie.
