I missed you to death.
'So that girl is not Ga-eun's real daughter?'
'And she's seven years old?'
'Seven?'
What did you do today?
Just this and that.
Jung-woo... by any chance...
Yeah?
Never mind.
What is it?
Just that I missed you, too.
Geez, is that so hard to say?
'Ga-eun adopted a baby?'
'That child is seven?'
Have you been wearing the underwear I gave you?
Of course.
'I should've hidden them. What if Ga-eun finds them?'
Is something wrong?
Huh? Of course not. Everything's fine.
Earlier, your daughter broke the picture frame you gave me.
I'm so upset.
What? Ga-eun and Na-ri came here?
Yeah, during the day.
- Why'd you tell her where you live? - Why are you angry?
Because I no longer have a place to relax now.
This isn't a place for you to hide and relax.
You're clearly mistaken. I told you before.
I have a private life and don't want you dropping by unannounced.
So you told Ga-eun where you are?
If you're so afraid of her, go home to her.
Why do I have to be your secret hide-out?
Don't make me laugh. I'm not your mistress.
I can leave you any time I get sick of you.
You mean that?
Until when are you going to tease me like this?
Were you lying when you said you loved me?
I'm going to love you as much as you love me.
If you treat me like a mistress, why can't I do the same?
I can always marry someone else.
Mi-ran!
Would you be okay if I bought you a place
and forbid you to tell anyone else about it?
The same goes for me.
I asked you to wait just a bit longer. Did you forget?
How can I trust you when you get upset over this trivial thing?
How can I have faith?
Don't be like this, Mi-ran. We're almost at the finish line.
If we work together and make the new brand Star a success,
I can edge out the old man and make Sun Apparel mine.
No, it'll be yours and mine.
Yet you insist on rushing me?
You aren't keeping any secrets from me?
Of course not.
Then why is your daughter seven?
What?
If you have no secrets, then tell me the truth.
She should be six if she's Ga-eun's, but why's she seven?
Mi-ran.
Why is she our Sa-rang's age?
What ridiculous idea are you fancying?
I sincerely hope that I'm wrong.
I never saw this before.
Jung-woo?
Are you waiting for Jung-woo's call? You two are still such newlyweds.
Mom.
You sound like you got over your cold.
I did.
By the way, put the kimchi in the fridge.
It should be ripe about now so it'll overly ripen if you leave it outside.
Huh? Kimchi?
Didn't Jung-woo bring home the kimchi?
Ah, right. The kimchi.
Goodness, girl!
Did you forget about it and leave it anywhere?
Sorry, I completely forgot. I'll put it in the fridge.
Mom, I think his mother's home. Talk to you later.
She's still terrified of her mother-in-law.
That's a hard life, if ever I saw one.
Is Ga-eun's cold all better?
She sounded like she was over it.
Why is your husband so darn good at weaseling out of everything?
I can't find any solid proof.
He's practically an expert at lying now.
And he's so shameless he doesn't bat an eye when I confront him.
Even when he's been found out?
Yes, he's all 'what you gonna do about it.'
And he insists on his innocence. Can you believe it?
Are you sure we're not wasting our time over a misunderstanding?
Mom, I'm sure. A woman's intuition is a scary thing.
He's always primping himself these days.
He complains that the lotion he's been using for years smells weird.
Your husband said that? Jung-woo said the same thing.
Oh, Bro, too?
What are you two babbling about?
Stop making unfounded accusations against your hard-working husbands.
Jung-hee, go home and make dinner for Sae-rom.
Um, sweetie?
Yeah?
I saw some underwear I didn't buy. Where'd you get it?
What do you mean? What underwear?
I mean, I buy all your clothes, but I've never seen this one before.
My secretary bought them when I went to the sauna.
What's with that expression? Are you suspecting me?
Suspecting? Of course not. I was just curious.
Where did you go this afternoon?
Why? Did you call?
I took Na-ri to Ran's house.
Why are you wasting time at your friend's house?
If you have time to do that, spend it on Na-ri or Mother.
Yes, sir, dear husband.
By the way, what did you do with the kimchi?
Mom said she sent some with you.
What do you think? I threw it away.
What? Why did you do that?
You're seriously asking?
What is up with your family?
How could they wrap up kimchi and expect me to carry it?
Do you know how it'll stink up the car?
They must really look down on me.
Your family better not keep disrespecting me like that.
It's not disrespect, sweetie. You know my parents.
They didn't give you kimchi because they disrespect you.
How could you think that?
Then would they have done that if they thought highly of me?
They've always thought of me as a pushover.
Is my family so easy to disregard?
Sweetie, that's just your inferiority complex.
Since you bring it up, I've always had feelings of inferiority.
I'm just a big bundle of inferiority complexes.
Your family always looked down on us for being poor and ignorant.
Think I've got no self-respect?
Sweetie!
Why do you ignore the humiliation and shame your family gives me?
All these years I've been disregarded and my pride stomped on,
but I'll take it no more.
I refuse to be the delivery boy for kimchi!
Sweetie.
Wait, what's going on?
After everything I told you, you nagged him again?
No, Mother.
Like hell you didn't!
Looks like Jung-woo will be sleeping in the study again!
What did I tell you?
Didn't I say it'd be your funeral the day you forced him out again?
Why are you doing this to me? What did I do wrong?
Wh-what?
That little... She's got nothing to fear, is that it?
We need to talk.
I've got nothing to say. Get out!
You resent my family that much?
You're exaggerating if you think asking you to carry kimchi is disrespect.
Get out! I've had enough.
Just how many times did you carry kimchi?
If you're right, then all Korean men are disregarded by their in-laws.
You think this is just about the kimchi?
Want the whole list of complaints?
What did my parents do that upset you so much?
My mom being against our marriage?
Can't you understand that she was just worried as my mother?
- Shut up and leave me alone. - Put yourself in her shoes.
Imagine if the guy Na-ri wanted to marry didn't meet your expectations.
And my mother treated you so well after we got married.
You know that!
You think I'm being petty and nitpicking right now?
I think I've been disregarded because I feel that way.
Do you want to control my feelings, too?
You've changed. Why did you change so much?
Are you really the same person I know? I feel like I'm talking to a stranger.
Why are you so distant?
What about you and what you do?
It's not so strange that I'd buy underwear,
yet you bother me and give me the third degree.
You changed, not me.
Fine, let's say that was my fault.
But what wife wouldn't ask if her husband wore unfamiliar underwear?
You're actually mad about that?
Stop this instant!
Mother.
What are you doing to your husband?
How dare you lash out at your husband like this?
Come out now.
Mother!
You must disrespect your husband so much to behave like this.
Mother, you're being unfair.
Unfair?
This isn't even half of what your family did to Jung-woo.
He must have a lot pent up for him to act like this.
How badly did your family insult him for him to act like that, huh?
Oh, how my heart aches. I can feel my heart breaking.
It breaks my heart to think what pain he must've endured.
Mother, I don't see what humiliation my family gave to him.
My father would never do that to him. My mother...
How dare you talk back to me!
Mother!
Stop this instant!
Goodness, goodness. Jung-woo
See how she's glaring at me.
She looks like she'd attack me.
You, you shouldn't do this to me. You can't.
And Mother, even anger doesn't excuse your actions.
What is it that I did that was so wrong?
Where is she going so late?
She better not even think about coming back.
Mother.
Why did you have to interfere?
You say that even after seeing her talk back to me?
Let it slide and she'd do it more often.
Pretty soon I'd end up the poor neglected old woman.
Gotta nip her rebellious attitude in the bud.
Even so, you should've been careful.
What if she goes to her parents' and refuses to come home?
Don't worry.
She can't leave because of Na-ri. Watch, I'm totally right.
But Na-ri's still someone else's child.
Don't you know that Ga-eun would give up her liver for Na-ri?
We still have to be careful.
Na-ri's mother is back from America.
What? That tramp is... she's back?
The accident ended up rendering her infertile.
So she brought home a baby from some single mothers' home
and adopted her as her own.
MI-RAN
Is Mom beside you? Then just listen quietly.
Come out that café from last time.
What is this about?
We'll talk in person.
Why'd you call me out privately, huh?
I'm dead if your mother finds out.
Finds out? We've got nothing to hide.
Time has passed, but don't tell me you've forgotten already.
Or are you just playing dumb?
I have no idea what you're talking about.
You can't play dumb when you caused Ga-eun's infertility.
You call yourself her friend.
I mean... I just...
'Do I tell her or not...'
'...that I used Ga-eun's brother to cause the accident?'
'No, I can't tell her that.'
Listen to me good.
The miscarriage and the unfortunate infertility were all Ga-eun's fault.
That accident didn't happen because I told you to do it.
Don't even think of it like that, understand?
Fine, let's pretend that's true.
Is that what you wanted to talk about?
You said you're close with Ga-eun's brother?
Sung-eun? What about him?
Ask him quietly where Ga-eun adopted her daughter.
What? Why do you want to know that?
That's none of your business. Just find out.
No, I can't do it. I won't do anything no more.
Even now?
Did Ga-eun not come home last night?
After storming off about something so trivial, she stayed out all night?
She's out of her mind.
What are we gonna do about this?
Everything will be fine. Don't worry.
I'm off to work.
Have breakfast first.
Hold on, I'll get it ready.
No, thank you. I'm not hungry.
My precious son is going to work on an empty stomach.
Oh, I'm furious.
Grandma, where's Mommy?
I don't know! Don't even ask about her.
That evil thing...
I'm attempting to form a partnership with Dream for the new clothing line.
Is it confirmed we'll be working with Dream?
Almost. When it is, we'll send over one of our designers to start.
If we work with Dream, we'll have better sales and more awareness
than if we were do it alone.
Right. It's so easy to talk to you about anything.
Oh, and can you come with us when we go to meet with Dream?
It'll be best if our main designer explained the concept and direction.
Fine. When is it?
So is there any progress in establishing a partnership?
Did you decide on which company?
I'm seriously considering Sun Apparel.
Sun Apparel? Not Wippy Fashion?
Their concept doesn't match with ours.
The concept we want is a flashy yet sophisticated party look.
Wippy is targeting a teenage demographic.
But why Sun Apparel of all places?
Kid, how can you work with only the companies you like?
Decisions should be based on profit and progress.
Yeah, Jae-bum's right.
Even a small shop shouldn't be run so carelessly.
Even more so for a large company.
Seo-jin, you've got a long way to go to catch up to Jae-bum.
Speaking of which, Uncle, give Seo-jin to me.
You want him?
Yes. Since he's so knowledgeable in marketing, he'll be of great help.
Hey, you're asking Father before you even ask me?
Your opinion's not that important. You just follow orders.
Father.
Hold on, is Sung-eun attending the meeting, too?
Yes, sirree.
Of course I gotta be there if you are.
For sure, for sure.
You know how much I like you.
Of course.
Hey, Sis. Hold on.
Of course.
Is your sister there?
Yes. You know how she is.
When I see her, I can't help but laugh.
You like your sister that much?
Then again, blood is thicker than water.
I thought she was a regular angel even before I found out we were family.
The kids at the orphanage nicknamed her Auntie Angel.
Auntie Angel?
The volunteer worker Auntie Angel was your sister?
Oh, you've heard of Auntie Angel?
Of course, every orphanage I sponsor mentions her.
But I had no idea it was your sister.
You help out everywhere just like my sister does, huh?
That's why you know so well, right?
I don't volunteer that much.
Anyway, I'll see you later. Bye.
That backstabbing witch was Auntie Angel?
What a surprise.
She managed to shock me yet again.
Oh! What brings you here?
- Coming back from the golf course? - We got some much-needed exercise.
Why didn't you bring Na-ri?
She went to kindergarten.
Why do you look so pale? Are you feeling unwell?
No, I'm fine.
You should've called ahead.
I would've prepared your favorite snacks and drinks.
It's not like I'm a guest or anything.
Still.
You rarely visit these days. Your father misses you like crazy.
What about you, Mom? Didn't you miss me?
I missed you even more than your father.
- Hey, Sis! - Young-eun!
How noisy. Hey, you're overdoing it.
You always exaggerate everything.
Sis, visit more often.
You went golfing with Mom and Dad?
Yeah? I drove them.
Sis, stay here until I come back from work.
I'll come with Jung-woo, okay?
Why? Stay and go home with Jung-woo later, yeah?
Please?
We're late.
Goodness gracious.
Goodness, goodness. Stop crying!
Seriously.
Mommy...
Goodness, we're late. Go in already.
Grandma, is Mommy gonna be home soon?
Of course she is.
Stop crying and go inside. Listen to your teacher, you hear?
Why's she making my granddaughter cry?
Did something happen to Ga-eun?
Yeah, Sung-eun heard it so long ago he says he doesn't remember.
Yeah, 80% of it is true so call them yourself.
- Mister Cho. - Oh god, oh god!
Why did you hang up so abruptly?
It - it was just Sung-eun. Right, Sung-eun.
The One Love Center for Single Mothers, please.
Yes, the one in Kangbuk.
Yes, yes.
Thank you.
Ga-eun adopted as soon as she became infertile.
Something smells fishy.
Is this One Love Center for Single Mothers?
I have some questions about a baby that was adopted from there.
'I wonder if Na-ri went to kindergarten alright.'
'I hope she didn't cry.'
Ga-eun, let's go to the hair and skin salon.
You're in major need of a massage. You look so haggard.
I'm fine. You go.
You are not fine.
How many times have you gone since you got married?
Not a single time, right?
Baby, how does it feel? Don't I have magic hands?
Yes, you do. It feels so good.
By the way, Mister Cho.
Yeah?
Who was the tramp you talked to earlier?
Geez, it wasn't no tramp. It was your daughter...
Who? Mi-ran?
Mister Cho, you were talking to Mi-ran?
Ah, well... the thing is...
Truth is, she kept asking me to find out something for her.
Find out about what? Huh? What?
Nothing important. Just about Ga-eun's daughter.
She wanted to know where Ga-eun adopted Na-ri.
What?
- Why are you so surprised? - So...
So you found out for her?
What choice do I have? Your daughter's scary.
Oh god, oh god. You idiot.
How could you find that out for her?
What if she finds out something?
What is it I shouldn't find out?
Mi-ran.
What is it? What is it I shouldn't find out?
Huh? Ah, well...
I don't know what you're talking about...
You know something, don't you?
Right?
I don't... I don't know nothing.
Look at me. You're keeping no secrets?
Seriously, what is with you? I don't know anything.
I just went to the single mothers' center where Ga-eun got her daughter.
What?
So tell me everything. Tell me what is it you're hiding!
Hiding? I'm not hiding anything.
The girl Ga-eun adopted is my daughter, right?
Mi-ran...
What are you talking about, girl?
Your baby's dead...
Don't lie!
Think that's the only place I checked?
I also went to the hospital where I had my baby.
Mi-ran.
They told me my guardian had my healthy daughter released that very day.
Still gonna lie to me?
Mi-ran.
The little girl Ga-eun is raising is my daughter, isn't she?
