Where do you think you're going?
Don't do anything. It's not your place to get involved.
How can I do nothing? Aren't you furious?
Jung-woo bought our dad's company and is holding an inaugural ceremony.
So we're furious. What are you going to do?
- Crash the party like a gangster? - No reason not to.
It's an eye for an eye.
Gosh, darnit!
We've lost everything, so where'd he get the money to set up a new company?
He received investments.
So why use those investments to buy our dad's company of all companies?
He couldn't do this if he were human.
Like we didn't already know he isn't human.
Don't get riled up for nothing.
Are you a saint? How can you not get mad?
Will my anger change anything?
I realize you feel wronged but this is not the way to go.
I have a plan so leave things to me.
And what exactly can YOU do?
You're in constant fear that creditors will show up.
All you think about is what we can sell next.
If you go cause trouble, you'll be no better than them.
- So just stay put. - No can do.
I'm gonna go spit in their faces.
Young-eun.
This is Yoo Ga-eun.
You know that the inaugural ceremony for Star Fashion is today?
We will begin the inaugural ceremony for the industry's latest star, Star Fashion.
Let me introduce the two driving forces behind Star Fashion.
Park Jung-woo, CEO, and Julia Kim, VP as well as main designer.
Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedules to join us today.
Please continue to watch with interest as Star Fashion flourishes.
I ask you now to raise the glasses in front of you.
For the unlimited success of Star Fashion!
- Cheers! - Cheers!
Cheers, my butt.
Everyone, don't be fooled.
Young-eun.
- My sister-in-law. - Sister-in-law?
Everyone heard that, didn't you?
That's right, I'm his sister-in-law
and the 2nd daughter of the former Sun Apparel family.
In other words, Park Jung-woo is the son-in-law of our family.
As you well know, Sun went bankrupt and went under.
So what do you think of the fact that
this guy bought his father-in-law's company and slapped on a new name?
Move!
Let go!
Julia Kim's no different from him.
She rose to her current position thanks to her immoral relationship with Park Jung-woo.
- Think a company like this will succeed? - That troublemaker.
This is an immoral inaugural ceremony held by shameless people!
Let go!
I said let go of me!
Let go!
- Which way? - That way!
Sorry for the disturbance, esteemed guests.
Park Jung-woo, I want my money!
You establish your own company after ripping off mine?
What the hell do you think you're doing?
I lent money to President Yoo Sung-eun of Sun.
There's still a lot to be paid before the debt's cleared.
Why ask for your money here? I won't tolerate this.
Won't tolerate what? You're the son-in-law of Sun.
If you married the daughter, you have some responsibility for the debt, too.
When are you gonna pay us? Promise us right now.
Why do you keep avoiding us, you slippery eel?
If you don't want this kind of embarrassment, pay us back now!
Pay us back!
Are you okay?
Thank you for the ride.
I owe you yet again.
Don't say things like that. What I did was nothing.
I don't think I ever thanked you properly, Jae-bum.
I'll pay you back the money you lent Sung-eun as soon as I can.
Don't even worry about it. I'm in no hurry.
I remember how happy my dad was to hear about your help.
His death was so sudden.
I can still see his warm smile so clearly.
He must be turning over in his grave.
His son was arrested and his son-in-law usurped the company.
It's my fault for being foolish and a poor judge of character.
That's not true.
Things went bad for their own reasons. How it is your fault?
I'm going to find out how he took over my dad's company.
And I'll help you in any way I can.
If you ever need my help, ring me up.
I appreciate the thought.
Goodbye.
Mom.
Turn on the lights at least.
Why bother? I see your father's smiling face everywhere.
Mom. You have to be strong.
Dad will be sad if you keep this up.
You need to get back on your feet and eat something.
Ga-eun, I...
I miss your father.
Ga-eun, how will I survive? I won't make it on my own.
I can't do anything without your father.
How could he leave me all alone?
Mom.
Honey, is that you?
How'd it go? Did you stop the reporters?
Yeah, at least for now.
But I can't guarantee we won't be on the front page tomorrow.
How humiliating from the start.
I told you to settle the divorce. Then this wouldn't have happened.
Think I'm not trying here?
You should've persuaded her and gotten her to sign the papers.
You're so capable in other matters yet so weak when it comes to Ga-eun.
When was I weak with Ga-eun?
What am I supposed to do if she refuses to sign?
You should've forced her.
Do you know what she wants? She wants Na-ri.
You think she's serious about wanting Na-ri?
That's her way of saying she'll never give me a divorce.
So she'll continue to back us into a corner?
We have to wait it out but who knows what rumors are spreading?
I hope the directors aren't affected.
Leave the divorce to me. I'll make her sign.
- What are you gonna do? - Just leave it to me.
Mommy made this for me.
Yeah? It's real pretty.
Na-ri, I love you.
Me, too, Mommy. I love you lots and lots.
Mommy, our special sign.
Ga-eun, it's me.
Oh, Ga-eun.
What's so urgent?
The thing is... First, have a seat.
If you want me to get back with Jung-woo, I'll just leave now.
No, no. That's not it.
Truth is, I wanted to discuss Na-ri with you.
Na-ri?
What is it? Since when do you discuss things with me?
Why'd you do it, Mother?
You're a mother, too, so how could you do this to me?
What do you mean?
You knew Na-ri was the child of Jung-woo and my friend.
You knew and you still made me raise her.
How could you do that? Have you no fear of God?
How could you tear my heart to shreds like this?
The thing is...
Because I can't have children?
Must all infertile women be punished and forced to bear it in silence?
How could you watch me with Na-ri while playing me for a fool all these years?
Did you believe it would stay a secret forever?
Well... you know...
How dare you glare at me and attack me?
I didn't do anything that deserves death or nothin'.
And to be honest, isn't this better than raising the child of a complete stranger?
This isn't something to get so riled up about.
You're a mother yourself.
I can't hold Na-ri the same way ever again.
Yet, I also can't forget her.
I see her when I close my eyes and hear her voice on the streets.
I think of her when I see something good to eat or something she likes.
You should understand well, being a mother yourself.
So what am I supposed to do if that child came from betrayal?
If it was a secret, you should've taken it to your grave.
Why didn't you let me remain blissfully ignorant so I can love her?
How could you put me through such terrible torture?
What did I ever do to you to deserve this pain?
Why?
I'm sorry.
I know, I know.
I did something real terrible to you.
Of course your world is collapsing. I made you raise your enemy's child.
We're both women. Of course I understand.
Frankly, this would've never happened if you had had Jung-woo's child then.
I was just worried this was the end of our family line.
You understand.
Of course. All you care about is your bloodline.
I know what a great daughter-in-law and mother you were.
You're my only daughter-in-law.
And you're the only mother Na-ri has.
I'm serious. I told Jung-woo the same.
So... speaking of which, how about you raise Na-ri for the time being?
I'm human, too.
I felt terrible after snatching Na-ri away from you.
I was worried if she'd be okay after being ripped apart from her mother.
Can you consider raising her until she's old enough to understand?
How can you ask this after taking the crying child from me?
Didn't you understand a word I just told you?
When I hold Na-ri, I feel like I'm being pricked by thorns.
I can't hold her close yet I can't forget her either.
Can you even begin to imagine these terrifying feelings of mine?
Ga-eun.
Ga-eun, Na-ri is really sick.
Na-ri, it's Mommy.
Mum...my...
Mummy...
Mummy... Mummy...
Na-ri.
Na-ri, what's wrong?
What's wrong, Na-ri?
She became like this.
Na-ri.
Na-ri. Na-ri.
Na-ri, I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry, Na-ri.
How much pain were you in? You don't deserve this.
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
Mummy.
Na-ri.
- Mommy. - Na-ri, I'm sorry.
Goodness.
She was so pretty and bright.
Mom.
What did they do to her to make her like this?
Oh, poor thing. You poor thing.
Na-ri, eat more.
Say 'ah.'
What exactly happened to our pretty Na-ri?
Stress-induced regression.
Regression? Then what do we do?
She's been getting treated at the hospital.
But first and foremost, she needs to feel secure.
So this is the result of Jung-woo being obsessed with Ran?
Does he feel at ease after doing this to the child?
Na-ri, do you remember me?
Recognize me?
Mama...
And she was so bright, too...
Don't worry, I'll bring her back to how she used to be.
Na-ri, you're going to get better if you stay with me, right?
Mummy, water.
She wants water.
Here.
What did they do to the child?
How could this happen after staying a few days apart from you?
She became like this after that woman took her.
She shocked Na-ri by telling her she was her birthmother.
You've gotten even prettier.
I'll go throw this away real quick.
Mummy! Mummy...
'Na-ri, how could your birthparents do this to you?'
'I can't forgive them.'
After the havoc Young-eun caused, you have something left to do?
How could you do that to Na-ri?
How can you smile and eat when she's like that?
That's what you came to say? Aren't you being ridiculous?
- Ridiculous? - It's no longer any of your business.
You should be working on forgetting her and moving on with your life.
Giving birth doesn't make you a mother.
There are things you can't say to a child.
How could you tell a 7-year-old you're her real mother and shock her,
purely to fulfill your greed?
- Do you ever think? - Don't worry.
I'm going to cure her.
So what are you doing in order to cure her?
If you loved her at all, you should've called me when it happened.
Must you make her a casualty in your little affair?
Don't act like you're the only one who cares.
My heart aches more than yours.
Aches?
You didn't want Na-ri. You just wanted to be Jung-woo's wife.
This incident made that clear.
So don't come looking for Na-ri. You're not qualified to be her mother.
You've got no right to say that.
Do you know the pain of giving birth after carrying a child for 9 months?
If you feel so deeply, you should've thought of her more.
Na-ri's with me right now.
What?
Mother asked me to take her.
She wants me to raise her until she's all better.
What?
Don't even think of seeing her.
Don't make things worse by making her more confused and shocked.
And don't even think about telling people you're her mother.
That's what I came to say.
Yoo Ga-eun!
Na-ri will only get worse if she sees you.
If you truly love her, I trust you won't show up in front of her.
You'll forever live in regret, hiding in the shadows of Jung-woo
and unable to hold Na-ri ever again.
Do you realize now that your unforgivable act brought this on you?
Stop it already.
Why are you making me uneasy by building your body?
I don't expect you to have a great body.
Baby, why do you think I'm exercising so hard?
It's all for you.
But I don't want you to.
Don't stop me. Beastly men are in, don't you know?
Shut up. I'd prefer you to be a rabbit man.
Baby, women take pride in their skin and...
Goodness.
Men take pride in their muscles. Let me have some pride.
Oh, Mi-ran.
Oh! Oh!
Mom, what do I do? I'm so furious at her.
What is it? What's got you so angry?
Mother gave Na-ri to Ga-eun.
What?
Julia, what are you saying? Gave Na-ri to who?
Unbelievable. We've been so patient, too.
What did you say? Gave Na-ri to Ga-eun?
How can she give your child to Ga-eun?
How can she?
What law supports this?
Are they looking down on us?
Since she won't divorce him, I've got no right to stop her.
How can I force her to divorce him?
Ga-eun's refusing to divorce him, is that it?
Mister Cho, use your noodle. Any good ideas?
Ideas? From me?
Step up as the stepfather of the VP of Star Fashion!
Shut up!
'Why would I have ricecakes? I don't have any.'
'Then shall I ask Na-ri for some?'
How can you give Na-ri to Ga-eun without consulting me?
Didn't you hear what the doctors said?
What Na-ri needs most is Ga-eun, not the tramp who gave birth to her.
She'll be cured if Ga-eun cares for her and gives her security.
Security can be formed naturally if she stays with her real mother.
She has to get used to Mi-ran sooner or later.
Enough with your nonsense. You trying to ruin your only child?
Look at the state Na-ri's in.
So you're going to let Na-ri stay with Ga-eun indefinitely?
We can't do that.
Don't worry about Na-ri. I'll take care of it.
How can I not worry? We might lose her to Ga-eun forever.
Foolish boy, you think I'd let her take care of our child?
Mom, why are you backpedaling?
You asked Ga-eun to take care of Na-ri until she's grown.
- Until she's grown? - Don't worry.
Ga-eun has no wish to get back with you.
We just leave Na-ri with her until Na-ri's better.
That's when I'll go and bring Na-ri back.
Think I didn't even think about that?
Seriously, Mom, you're talking about using Ga-eun.
Will you shut up?
But we don't know how long it'll take.
That's not an explanation Mi-ran will accept.
So why did you betray your faithful wife?
You raise what you sow.
You REAP what you sow.
Shush!
It's amazing, actually.
Not a single line was printed anywhere about the ruckus yesterday.
Goes to show how quickly Jung-woo cleans up.
But a lot of people from the industry were there.
It won't be easy to kill the rumors from spreading.
Soon it'll be passed around like fact among the people who matter.
Anyway, you guys just focus on launching the brand successfully.
By the way, Jae-bum, we need some new recruits.
Okay.
Uncle.
Do you know the specifics of how Jung-woo bought out Sun Apparel?
- Why do you ask? - They'll be working closely with us.
If they've got skeletons, we have to know ahead of time.
I'm sure he's too meticulous to leave any trails around.
That's true.
He was called in for both the tax investigation and the embezzlement case
but he came away completely cleared.
- It won't be easy to find any dirt. - Don't bother, kid.
I just know someone who suspects him but has no evidence.
I just want to help.
Geez, good for you. What a meddler.
Ga-eun!
We need to talk.
I have nothing to say.
