Original subtitles

Someone else will take on that job this time around.

Here she is.

Hello.

Are you kidding me?

Just because I'm a proxy, you won't even bother to greet me.

I'm here as Lee Sang Jun's proxy,

and the name is Kim Tae Ju.

It's good to see you again.

It's good to see you.

I'm Oh Hee Eun from Mint Communications.

It sure feels different to see you here.

Once again, I see a thick layer of makeup.

It's like I told you yesterday.

The ad campaign is for a hair-loss treatment...

released by Geongangsu Pharmaceuticals.

The advertiser wants Lee Sang Jun to promote the product.

But Mr. Lee has an ample amount of hair.

So why was he chosen for this?

Because it's Lee Sang Jun.

"You can also have as much hair as he does."

That's false advertisement.

If hair can grow after taking a few tablets,

it should win a Nobel Prize.

It's the same as casting...

good looking celebrities in beauty campaigns.

You can't look like the celebrity...

just because you apply the lipstick they're promoting.

We're providing a fantasy for our customers.

Who may you be though?

He's Cho Smith from Mint Communications.

That's right.

Let's take a look at the storyboard.

It's still in the developing stage.

How can we make a decision...

when we don't know the direction you'll be going in?

We thought that you'd be more interested in the payment.

How good is the hair-loss treatment? Does it promote hair growth?

Or does it stop hair from falling out?

It works in both ways,

but it mainly focuses on hair from falling out.

Then will it be something like this?

Just a second.

Will it stop hair from falling out even when you do this?

- What the... - Mr. Cho Smith.

Can you let go first?

Hair won't fall out even in this case.

- Wait, don't... - Even when I do this?

Tae Ju, please.

"Tae Ju?" Do you know me?

No, I...

All I'm saying is that I don't want the ad campaign...

to be something that is equally childish.

It's why we requested to see the storyboard.

We wouldn't do that to a movie star like Mr. Lee.

You don't have to worry.

And in terms of payment,

we'll try to accommodate Mr. Lee's request.

How much would that be?

How much are you going to request?

A lot.

Sure.

We'll be back for a follow-up meeting...

with a storyboard and an offer in mind.

Yes, that sounds better.

I'll look forward to it, Ms. Oh.

I heard you loud and clear,

Ms. Lee Sang Jun's Proxy.

(Episode 48)

Kim Tae Ju, that bulldozer.

I bet she grabbed your hair on purpose.

Because you used to date her sister.

I only let it slide because I had a job to do.

And cut that act as Cho Smith.

You're going to meet with them again, right?

Of course.

I bet she'll end things after pretending to consider it.

Convincing the advertiser might be even harder though.

We can do so by telling the advertiser...

about Lee Sang Jun's scandal.

But he corrected the rumor...

regarding the son he had out of wedlock.

We'll say that he's under investigation...

for tax evasion.

That'll get the advertiser to give up on him.

We'll do that.

And Mother...

Don't give up on Mr. Sin.

I never said I had.

What?

That Smith who was here...

is So Rim's ex-boyfriend, and they ended on bad terms.

Is that so?

No wonder he seemed odd.

I don't know why they teamed up,

but seeing him use an alias...

tells me that they desperately want to work with Sang Jun.

We'll have to see what they present next time.

You must want Sang Jun to be in that commercial.

They're offering a lot of money, so I would agree to it...

as long as it doesn't hurt his image.

Next time, it'll be her hair that I grab.

If she still offers the deal...

and the commercial won't hurt Sang Jun's image,

I'll agree to it too.

Goodness. You did enough of the hair-grabbing today.

She pretended to be terminally ill.

That's an insult...

to all the patients who wish for a miracle.

My dad also collapsed because of that woman.

I won't let her be.

If you hate her that much, we should decline their offer.

No, I'd like to sit down for another meeting.

We're at the bus stop.

Why don't I get my car and meet you there?

It's all right. If you're nearby,

we'll come to you.

Did you park your car at the public parking lot?

Gil Yeon.

Gil Yeon!

We'll come to you.

The one by the intersection, right?

The one near our house and not the curry place.

No, just stay there. I'll pick you guys up.

We'll head out in my car together.

Got it. Don't be long.

Sang Jun will...

My goodness.

Ms. Yoon, where are you?

Ms. Yoon?

Ms. Yoon, where are you?

Ms. Yoon!

Grandma.

Sang Jun, this is bad. Your grandma disappeared!

What?

Gosh, she left her purse here.

My gosh.

What?

Her phone's still in her purse.

How long has she been gone?

She disappeared while I was on the phone with you.

Could she have gotten on the bus?

Let's follow the bus route, then.

She'll be in the neighborhood.

Actually, you should head home.

I'll look around the area.

All right. I'll take her purse home.

Sure.

Ms. Yoon, my gosh.

Goodness me.

If you caught a cold, sit far away.

I'm expecting Yong Sil.

I cleared all your assignments.

I got drenched,

and made up for my past mistakes.

Then you're left with just the four reports.

You look so lethal when you're working on a laptop.

My heart flutters too much.

Sorry, I'll let you work.

What were you looking at so intently?

"Born December 8 at Namjang Maternity Center?"

Why were you reading this so thoroughly?

It's the script Sang Jun wants to turn into a movie.

It's set in the 1970s,

and a woman in her 20s switches two babies...

born on the same day at a village maternity center.

It sounds like fun.

There's a reason he chose this script...

out of all the ones his juniors were working on,

right?

I guess he wants to mess with his cousin.

His junior wrote this, so it'll be a coincidence,

but the name of the woman who switches the babies...

is Jang Young Suk.

Why not just go with Jang Young Sik?

I'd love him to feel guilty.

Ji Woo.

Will he be okay?

This might upset him.

I'm sure Sang Jun has a plan.

What are you doing?

I need to go out.

Where to?

Where are you going?

I found the scumbag.

He lives in Paju.

He still teaches art.

What'll you ask him when you see him?

"Am I a genius or not?"

Let's talk about it later.

Jang Young Sik.

Jang Young Sik.

Jang Young Sik!

Will you please get a grip?

For how long will you let your past hold you back?

I can't find my new memory card.

Honey.

What am I to you?

What are we to you?

Honey. I spent...

half of my life as your wife.

There were hard times,

but I got through them with your love.

Until now, I thought you loved me.

I do love you, Eun Ju.

I have to go.

No.

You lied to me for 20 years.

When I found out...

you'd lied to me, I wanted to leave you.

But, you know...

I stayed. Do you know why?

Because I loved you.

But look at you!

Honey.

How long will you suffer alone...

in the cold, dark studio?

Blaming everyone else?

Sang Jun's not the only one with talent.

Fine. Then start over now.

I'll help you.

And...

kneel in front of your aunt and Sang Jun and apologize.

Apologize to me too!

Can we please talk later?

Honey.

Open your eyes and look at us.

Me, Soo Bin, and Ji Woo, we all love you.

I took in Ji Woo...

so he wouldn't become like me, but he resents me too now.

How could he not?

Even I resent you right now.

Please, give Ji Woo some time.

Let's wait for him.

Eun Ju. I need you to give me some time too.

Do you want to...

lose the rest of us too?

If you don't come around now,

you'll lose your real family.

Do you want me to abandon you too?

You don't get me either.

No. I don't get you.

But I'm sticking with you because I love you.

You can leave too if you want.

(Janghyeon 07, village shuttle)

Grandma!

Sang Jun.

I got scared to hear you'd suddenly disappeared.

Are you all right?

Yes, I'm fine.

I came back to my senses.

You took the shuttle?

Sang Jun.

I keep seeing Gil Yeon.

Your uncle.

Sang Jun.

I'm sorry Young Sik hurt you.

Can't I apologize instead?

I'm sorry, Grandma.

It's all my fault.

If the family suffers, it's on the eldest.

I should've been a warmer person and a better influence.

I was...

Grandma.

Tae Ju's home is closest, so let's go over there.

Her family's worried too.

Okay.

- My gosh. You're here. - Goodness.

I was so worried.

Se Ran, Mom just came in.

Don't worry. I'll call soon.

- My goodness. - Mom, are you all right?

Of course, I'm fine.

- Come and sit down. - Yes, sit down.

Please sit.

My gosh.

You aren't in pain, are you?

I'm sorry for being a nuisance.

I must've lost my mind for a bit.

My mother kept...

your phone and handbag safe.

Thank you.

What happened?

I got the impression that your older brother...

was on the bus that was coming in.

Before I knew it, I was on the bus.

Mom.

Did you get on the bus without your bag?

Yes.

My card wallet was in my pocket, so I paid the bus fare.

Did you come to on the bus?

Yes, I came to my senses as soon as I got on.

I'm relieved you're back safe and sound.

I'm sorry, Father.

Our family's going through a rough patch.

I think my mom's very stressed out.

I understand completely.

You don't have to apologize.

I'm sorry for causing concern.

Sang Jun, can you take me home?

Sure, Grandma.

You should stay and chat with me.

That would be better for you.

- Don't go. - Yes, ma'am.

You can stay. Make yourself at home.

I'll come by again.

I'd feel much better at home.

Oh, dear.

Bye.

You wanted a light dinner, so I prepared abalone porridge.

Okay, thanks.

Ji Hye brought back the luggage she'd left with.

What luggage?

She'd taken some clothes, shoes, and books...

to the studio apartment you'd rented for her mother.

She brought them all back today.

Is she here right now?

No. She left after dropping off the luggage.

She said she'd stay here and not with her mother.

Okay. I understand.

I remember Sang Jun said he would have the script modified.

He might want to make it more similar to his own story.

You mean he will make it the same?

That's just childish.

The name of the leading character is Jang Young Suk.

I don't want to help him with this script.

That's not fair. You promised to help him.

This is just about personal revenge.

Can't you just go along with it? You know what he's been through.

And it's not like independent films attract a lot of audiences.

If Lee Sang Jun is the producer, they will promote the film a lot.

And the story is similar to his. I guess many people will watch it.

His agency already filed a defamation suit.

I don't want Sang Jun to go this far.

I mean, for his own sake.

I'm on his side.

Sang Min.

Hey.

Ji Hye, what are you doing here?

Ms. Jang Hyun Jung wouldn't take my calls.

So you're the only one I can talk to.

Can you help me meet your aunt?

My aunt? Why?

I just need to talk to her.

This is really important to me.

Does it have something to do with what happened before?

Please get up already.

Please help us talk her into breaking up with my dad.

Please just get up for now.

Please talk to your daughter.

I'm begging you to help us.

Why did you do that at the curry restaurant that day?

You even kneeled down. That was so unlike you.

I didn't even recognize you at first.

I had some circumstances.

You know Mr. Kim passed out because of your mom, right?

That's why Auntie doesn't want to meet you.

Do you know how I felt watching your mom that day?

"I don't want to be like her when I grow old."

I agree with you.

Sang Min.

Please help me meet your aunt.

Okay. I'll talk to her.

I need to meet her today.

Today?

I'm totally fine.

Don't worry about me.

You know I've been upset these days.

So I just lost my mind for a bit.

Mom, wherever you go, take me with you from now on.

I'm telling you I'm really fine.

Still, I don't want you to go around alone for the time being.

I was really startled earlier.

I guess I should go on a trip or something with Young Sik.

I need to have a talk with him.

If that makes you feel comfortable, you should do that.

All right.

Sang Jun.

Can't you...

just drop the suit against Young Sik now?

I can't.

Do you really have to take legal action against your family?

Grandma.

Young Sik is not my family.

Sang Jun.

Grandma, I'm producing a new movie.

You should come and watch the shoot. I'll take you with me.

You're producing a movie?

I'll show you the script. You will like it.

Well, it tastes pretty good.

Really?

But about a third of the customers say they don't like it.

Don't just try to copy my recipe.

You can have it your own way and try something new.

How would I do that?

This is all because of that darn ex-wife.

If it weren't for her, your dad would've been just fine.

Let's not talk about her anymore.

Am I wrong?

When that lady and her daughter got on their knees and made a fuss,

I thought my heart would stop.

Anyway, So Rim, you can do this if you want.

If not, you don't have to do it.

You don't have to force yourself just because you feel bad for me.

I'm doing this because I love you.

And I guess I'm pretty talented.

Then you can try working on it.

You can always quit if things don't work out.

Okay.

So Rim, let me taste it.

Yes. I was just surprised earlier.

But Mom is fine.

I guess she's been upset because of Young Sik.

You're coming home soon, right?

Yes. I'm almost home.

Okay. I'll see you soon.

Hyun Jung, can I see you for a moment?

Okay.

What? Sang Min.

Sang Jun took Mom home earlier.

Yes, I heard.

Grandma is home, and fortunately, she's doing fine.

Aren't you here to see your grandma?

I'm here to see you.

Me?

Yes.

You're getting prettier these days.

You mean it?

I mean, you're being nice and sweet.

You used to be like a mean filly.

Let's go to the living room.

I'm sorry, but I brought my friend here.

What?

Why did you bring your friend here?

Is it your boyfriend?

I wish it was, but that's not it.

She's just a female junior.

Make yourself at home.

Thank you. Come in.

Hello.

Your friend is pretty.

She says you're not answering her calls.

Let's go out and talk.

I'll go get my coat.

The weather is still chilly.

You're not wearing warm clothes.

Come on in. Follow me.

Hey...

Gosh.

- You're home early. - Yes.

I was going to take a quick walk around the neighborhood,

but it's chilly at night.

Sang Jun's sister and her friend are here.

They came to see Hyun Jung.

Really?

This place is lovely.

Just follow me.

Come here.

Gosh, this room is so cool.

It's nice.

Why did you bring Ji Hye here?

You weren't answering her calls,

so I didn't think you'd come to meet her if I asked.

Father collapsed because of her and her mom that day.

How could you bring her here? How dense are you?

I'm sorry.

I begged for her help because I needed to see you.

Have you been drinking?

Only a little.

She came by the cafe.

She seemed nervous to meet you, so I gave her a glass of wine.

What did you come here to say?

- Sang Min. - Yes?

I'm sorry to ask, but could you give us the room?

Is it something I shouldn't hear?

She's right, Sang Min. Be on the lookout for us.

Mother and Father shouldn't see Ji Hye.

Got it.

Here.

There. Have a seat.

There's a lot I wish to talk about.

If you want me to side with Hee Eun,

don't even bother asking.

To be honest,

I find you uncomfortable as well.

I'm sorry.

By the way,

did you hear the good news?

Your mom isn't terminal.

She's not sick at all.

She was miraculously healed.

Yes, I know about that.

She lied when she could easily be exposed.

That's who your mother is.

A while back,

you told me...

I should be more grateful to my dad.

Can I ask...

what you actually meant by that?

You seem to know why.

Am I right?

I'm not my dad's biological daughter.

Did Mu Yeong tell you?

No, my mom.

Why on earth did she tell you that?

I can't go into the details,

but...

her boyfriend at the time...

is my biological father.

Did my mom give birth to me...

and then marry Dad?

She married Mu Yeong...

while pregnant with you.

Mu Yeong came from a nice family...

and was a decent man who graduated from a top college.

She asked me to set her up on a blind date with him.

At the time,

Mu Yeong and I were members of the same hiking club.

My dad...

was duped into marriage.

After giving birth to you,

she left you with him and took off.

I told him he should send you away.

Why is she crying her head off?

It's still not too late.

Send her to her maternal grandparents.

Leave her at their doorstep if you must.

She's sick.

I will after she receives treatment.

Why would you bother when she's not your child?

Send her away this instant.

I'll do it some other time.

She'll grow on you.

She already has.

She must know her mother left her...

which is why she cries in pain, and I feel bad for her.

Get a grip on yourself!

If we're being honest, you weren't even married to Hee Eun.

You barely lived together.

Send her to her grandparents and live your life.

If her grandparents had wanted her,

they would've come by for her.

They haven't been in contact though.

Besides, she'll be like the black sheep of the house.

Her life will be miserable.

What are you going to do if you meet someone?

What if you met the woman of your dreams?

Having a child will mess up your chance.

I doubt that'll ever happen to me.

It will. I'm sure of it.

You're a great guy, Mu Yeong.

I'll take care of it.

I'll take responsibility for the choice I make.

Don't choose to raise her.

I'd feel guilty.

The decision will be mine.

Don't feel guilty about anything.

Oh, dear. This won't do.

Ji Hye?

Do you get it now?

That's why I said you should be grateful.

Ji Hye,

you shouldn't want Hee Eun to get back together with your dad.

Instead,

you should protect him from her.

Why didn't my dad say anything to me?

Around the age you started school,

you asked him...

why you didn't have a mom.

I don't remember that.

When he told you that you couldn't see her...

because he had divorced her,

you refused to talk to him...

and went on a hunger strike.

You then got sick,

and he carried you to the ER in the middle of the night.

Maybe that...

hurt him...

deep down inside.

He believed you didn't need to know the truth.

I had no idea.

I didn't know of the sacrifice he had made.

Mu Yeong...

raised you with love.

So stop hurting a man like him...

and help him this time.

I want him to have a happy life with someone nice.

I already...

hurt Ms. So Rim...

too much.

I heard you were here with a friend.

That's right.

Why are you out here alone, then?

My friend wanted to talk to my aunt.

What kind of secrets are they sharing?

Would you like something to drink?

No, we're good.

Ms. Yoo, we're fine.

We don't need any beverages.

Still.

Auntie, Ms. Yoo is heading in.

- You don't need a beverage, right? - In here.

- But... - Lie down.

- Anyway... - Mother.

I heard Sang Min's friend was here.

- Yes, but... - Hold on.

Why is she lying down?

She wasn't feeling well,

so I told her to lie down.

- What... - Really?

Hold on.

My goodness.

Why is she in a newlywed's bed?

If she's sick, she should lie down in Tae Ju's room.

Gosh, no. That's not necessary.

As if.

Young lady. You...

Sleep in the other room.

Grandma. I'll wake her and take her to the other room.

We'll take care of that. Don't you worry.

But...

Is something the matter?

Hello, Uncle.

Hi, Sang Min.

My goodness.

Who's this?

Who's in our bed?

I'll take care of it.

Grandma, Mother, how about you leave now?

What's going on?

- What... - Let's go to the living room.

I'll sing you a song. Come with me!

I'll send her home. You don't have to worry.

What friend of yours is this rude?

Don't hang out with her.

I know, right? How dare she sleep in a newlywed's bed?

She won't stay much longer.

Can I have a glass of water? I'm so thirsty.

Can I have some water?

Yes, sure.

My goodness.

Let's get some water.

Who is she? Why is she sleeping in our bed?

She's asleep?

She's Mr. Sin's daughter.

What?

She brought her mom to the restaurant...

and that's why your father passed out.

I couldn't let your parents see her.

Why is she even here?

Sang Min brought her over.

She found out she wasn't Mu Yeong's daughter...

and came to ask me about it.

What should we do?

We should let her stay,

then take her home after Mom and Dad go to bed.

(Today's Curry)

My gosh. What are you doing here this late?

Ji Hye's asleep at your place.

What?

She begged me to let her talk to Aunt Hyun Jung,

so I took her home after confirming your parents were here.

I didn't know they'd come home so soon.

Did my parents see her?

Not yet.

She hid in a bed and pretended to be asleep.

Let's go. Quick.

Dad.

She must've been really upset.

She passed out after a glass of wine.

I'll take her home after Mom and Dad go to bed.

What did she want to talk about?

She knew Mu Yeong wasn't her dad.

So I told her...

all the things he'd done and sacrificed...

just for her.

Mu Yeong!

You said you wouldn't give up.

Keep your word.

I'll pretend...

this didn't happen.

What you said today,

I'll forgive you for it.

Yes, hello?

Ji Hye is asleep at our place.

What?

She came to talk to Ms. Jang, then fell asleep.

I'll leave with her when my parents are in bed.

I called in case you'd worry if she didn't call all night.

No, I'll come over right now.

We'll bring her to you. Don't worry.

Ji Hye won't be able to wake up during the night.

She rarely wakes until the morning.

I'll come over now...

and leave with her without your parents knowing.

I'll call when I'm there.

(Born December 8 at Namjang Maternity Center)

(Movie Summary)

I'm home.

Did you get groceries?

I saw your grandmother.

Is it not too serious?

No. She remembers everything clearly.

I think she'll be fine.

I was so scared.

Her eldest son died before his time.

I think what your cousin did brought her trauma to the surface.

She's having a mental cold.

I blame Young Sik for what Grandma's going through.

What's that?

A script my junior wrote.

Do you want to read it? It's fun.

Okay.

I did a great job today as your proxy.

Don't go too far. Ms. Oh doesn't seem normal.

I'm not normal either, so it'll be fine.

Looking for Grandma took its toll.

I didn't do much today but I'm so tired.

What do you think? The first line draws you in, right?

It's about a maternity center worker...

swapping her friend's baby.

Did you choose this topic on purpose?

I chose it because it's fun.

Wouldn't a film set in the 70s be grand?

I'm going to start filming right away.

And enter it in film festivals here and abroad.

The name of the woman who swaps the babies is Jang Young Suk.

Was that your idea?

It's what my junior wrote.

Isn't it amusing?

Sang Jun.

Your hurting deep inside, aren't you?

No, I'm fine.

You can be honest with me.

You want to get revenge, don't you?

I can't deny that.

Do you think it'll make you feel better?

Yes.

I lived and worked for my family,

and my family betrayed me.

I feel so empty.

Everything was in vain.

I think I'll lose my mind if I don't even do this.

Okay.

Do what you want.

If you can work your fury out, then great.

Dad is not answering your calls again?

Soo Bin told me that.

Why...

are you here instead of Tae Ju's place?

I came because I was worried about you.

Ji Woo.

Mom.

I filed a suit against her. Lee Jang Mi.

What?

For abduction, captivity, and assault.

So the police went to the detention center to question her.

She will be punished for a long time.

Now...

no one can mess with us.

Why are you staring at your son like that?

Mom.

Ji Woo.

- This way. - Okay.

- Hey. - You're here.

Hey, Ji Hye.

I'm really sorry about this.

I could've taken her home.

I guess Ji Hye...

has been through a lot and is very distressed.

That's why she fell sound asleep like that.

We should take her out carefully without my mom and dad knowing.

Okay. Can you help me carry her on my back?

Okay.

- Ji Hye. - Ji Hye.

Gosh.

Dad.

I guess I fell asleep here.

I'm so sorry.

You can apologize later. You should get out of here first.

Okay.

Ji Hye. Pull yourself together and get your stuff.

Hurry. Let's go.

My goodness.

What? Gosh.

Oh, dear.

What is he doing here?

Grandma, shush. I'll tell you the whole thing later.

Grandma, go back to your room and sleep.

Why is he leaving...

with Sang Min's friend?

I'm so sorry to disturb you at this hour of the night.

This isn't about the time.

How dare you show your face here?

Do you not know my son collapsed...

because of your ex-wife and her daughter?

I'm sorry.

What?

What... Is she your daughter?

My goodness. I can't believe this.

Isn't it enough...

that you came to the curry place and made my son collapse?

I'm so sorry.

Grandma, you should talk to me.

We can't wake Mom and Dad up.

Gosh. Hey, Jung Sook.

- Grandma. - Haeng Bok, come on out.

- Grandma. - I can't believe...

- this is happening. - Please.

Hey. Haeng Bok and Jung Sook.

Gosh, what is going on?

This is unbelievable.

Father, I'm so sorry.

I'm sorry to disturb you so late at night.

- Gosh. - What?

What do you think you guys are doing?

- Gosh, Mom. - Mom, wait.

- Mom, calm down. - Stop it, Mom.

Haeng Bok, you should go back to your room.

If you pass out again, it will be really serious.

Mr. Sin, can you tell me what is going on here?

Dad, let's talk tomorrow.

- You should go. - Okay.

I'm really sorry.

Please excuse me for having caused you distress.

If you knew that, you shouldn't have come!

Why did you let her in in the first place?

I'm sorry, Grandmother.

You always do things that are not good for your baby.

You're unbelievable.

Grandma, that's enough. Please go back to your room.

Ji Hye just came by to ask us something.

And she fell asleep.

Get out this instant!

Don't you ever show up in front of us again.

Of course not. I'm sorry again to have caused you trouble.

I'm sorry.

I wasn't in my right mind that day.

I thought my mom was really sick.

Are you here to make excuses?

It's all my fault.

Please blame me for everything.

No. Please blame me.

I'm not even Sin Mu Yeong's daughter.

So I don't want him to give up on Ms. So Rim...

because of me.

Please don't disapprove of my dad.

Stop it.

I'm sorry again for bothering you so late. I apologize.

- Come on and follow me. - Dad.

Gosh.

Get home safe.

Ms. So Rim.

I'm sorry.

It's all my fault.

It's late. You should go home and rest.

Your parents would be worried because of us.

I'm really sorry.

I'll take care of everything. Don't worry about my parents.

Okay. I'll give you a call later.

Get in.

No. Please blame me.

I'm not even Sin Mu Yeong's daughter.

You should go sleep.

Why did you raise me?

Why did you do that when I'm not even your daughter?

The daughter of your ex-wife who betrayed you.

Did you hear that from Hyun Jung?

Mom told me that I wasn't your biological daughter.

And Ms. Jang told me why you raised me...

when you weren't my biological dad.

Whether you were my biological daughter or not,

I thought there was a reason why we ended up together.

And...

I was happy living as your dad.

By the way, why did your mom...

tell you such a thing?

She wanted me to take over your company.

So I shouldn't be so weak and naive.

Since I'm not your daughter, I have to keep my head on straight.

I think Mom is after your company.

That's why she lied about her illness.

You should be careful.

I can take care of it myself.

Listen, Ji Hye.

There's one thing I'd like to ask you.

No matter how hard it gets, you should know the least...

of what's called courtesy and decency.

Things like how you begged on bended knees.

You should never do such a thing.

Can you promise me?

Yes.

Dad.

All right.

Can I give you a hug, Ji Hye?

Come here.

My dear Ji Hye.

When did you grow up like this?

Hello, sir.

Are you Young Sik?

That's right. The stepson you regularly beat.

I wanted...

to punch you endlessly the next time I saw you.

But I don't have the urge anymore.

That's how pathetic you seem.

Have a drink and go.

Are you in touch with my mom?

Why would I be in touch with her?

Why did it end for you two?

Money was the reason.

The money...

from my dad's life insurance and the house she sold.

Did she give it to you?

She lost all that money in a bad investment.

Even now,

some of the undeveloped lands in Gangwon Province remains unsold.

If you don't believe me, check the land register.

You'll see when she bought the land.

Why did you treat me that way?

You treated me like trash.

It didn't seem like your mother loved you,

and I took my cue from her.

Gosh.

How nice of you to catch that.

Your mom...

relied on you though because you were her son.

She was afraid of you leaving,

so she said she stopped it.

If you know where she is,

visit her on holidays.

She...

stopped me...

from going somewhere far away?

She said she had ripped a painting or something.

She hadn't done much for you,

but it shows that she wanted you by her side.

She ripped a painting?

She accused your aunt of encouraging you...

to sever your relationship with your mother.

She came home relieved after ripping the painting...

that your aunt was going to submit.

She was the one who ripped your painting.

My mom...

taped the ripped pieces together...

and cried at the reception desk begging them to take your painting.

I guess she wanted her son to remain in her life.

By ruining my future?

Pick up the tab for me, will you?

I wanted to tell you something.

Growing up, I saw your drawings and paintings...

and thought that someone less talented than me...

was earning money as an art teacher.

It seemed like a joke.

You're the reason I look down on everyone.

Sure.

You were a gifted artist.

Pay for the drinks, okay?

Thank you for being alive.

I'm grateful that you ended up a pathetic old man.

And thank you for telling me the truth.

My gosh.

(Born December 8 at Namjang Maternity Center)

(Production Conference)

This way, please.

Can you look this way as well?

(Han Jae Min, Lee Sang Jun, Kim Ji In, Yoon Mi So)

Back in 1977, when our lands were rich with rice,

rice makgeolli was produced.

The movie is set in the era when the country had bumper years.

An employee at a maternity center in the countryside,

switched a friend's child to get back at her.

It may be a short movie of only 50 minutes,

but I hope to present one that is well-made.

Yes?

Did you choose to work on a movie of this plot...

because of what you went through recently?

Of course not.

He has always wanted to help his juniors,

and the stars aligned for him this time around.

Let me introduce you to the two leads.

Playing Jang Young Suk, the maternity center employee,

is Kim Ji In.

Hello, I hope for the best.

And playing the victim Lee Song Hee...

who has her child switched is Yoon Mi So.

I'll do my best.

And here's the rookie director Han Jae Min,

a junior of mine I respect.

I hope for the best as well.

In 1, 2, 3.

- "Born December 8"... - "Born December 8"...

- "at Namjang Maternity Center." - "at Namjang Maternity Center."

- Wish us luck. - Wish us luck.

(Born December 8 at Namjang Maternity Center)

What are you hoping to gain by producing this movie?

My goal is to create an entertaining movie.

Isn't it to stick it to your cousin?

I don't know.

This isn't like you at all. This is wrong.

Hasn't Ji Woo crossed your mind?

I'm sure he'll be unfazed by this.

I won't help with the production of this movie.

All right.

We'll meet when we film "Masters of Korea."

Does Tae Ju...

know about your intentions?

Yes, and she supports my decision.

I'm sorry to hear that.

Are you Ms. Oh Hee Eun?

Who's asking?

You must be aware...

that CEO Sin and Ms. Sin at Gipeun Cosmetics...

have charged you with fraud and blackmail.

You have also been sued for manipulating...

Green Bean Partners' stock price.

Please come with us for now.

What on earth? Why are you doing this to me?

You should've come by the station when we asked.

What do you think you're doing?

I'll be there along with my attorney.

For now, you'll have to come with us.

Go with them.

It'll be better for you that way, Mom.

What do you mean I should go with them?

Ji Hye, why are you just standing there?

Stay out of Dad's life and mine.

You abandoned me a long time ago.

I'm only doing the same.

What? Get a grip on yourself.

Come on.

Ji Hye!

Shall we?

Forget it. I'll be there with my lawyer.

Why aren't you letting me in?

Come on.

Hey, Sin Mu Yeong! Open this door.

Open it!

Why won't you open it?

Open this door!

Mu Yeong, how could you do this to me?

What are you doing here?

I live here.

Where's Mu Yeong?

Get out.

Darling. Mu Yeong!

Darling?

Why are you looking for my husband?

What?

We registered our marriage.

So get out of this house, Ms. Oh.

(Three Bold Siblings)

I thought I warned you.

I said you crossed the line big time.

Loving each other...

and taking each other's sides are what families do.

Did Ji Hye ask to meet you?

Yes, she has something to say.

I took Sang Jun's grandma to get tested...

at the dementia care center.

Couldn't you at least open up to your mom?

Would you like to visit Sang Jun on set?

We'd love to have you say a few lines...

as the assemblyman's wife.

That's absurd.

There's another character you can play.
