The Heirs Christmas Edition
It could be difficult.
But nevertheless...
Straight ahead.
[We, at eighteen years old...]
A mother who's hidden away, a brother who hates me.
My father's wife and mistress... My father who created all of this.
Every moment of my life has been too much.
[A wounded Kim Tan...]
Life is already predestined from the beginning...
Forget having a dream! I was going to settle for an office job
for 2 million Won a month after going to a two-year college.
[A hopeless Cha Eung Sang]
But the bigger problem is that...
your life will always be like this.
Don't try to pretend to do the right thing. It makes me want to hurl.
[A directionless Choi Young Do]
I started to like you.
Like me from this point on. Sincerely if you can.
Starting today, you're mine.
This is just the beginning.
How dare you think that you can come in this room?
[The growing pains of eighteen-year-olds who dream of happiness]
The house you live in and the room I live in...
They're different worlds.
I really feel like I'm going to die.
[Endure the Weight of Love]
When I was banished to California...
The very first thought I had was...
'At least I'll get to eat plenty of almonds.'
That's right.
And for a brief moment, like an illegitimate son would...
I thought that I should be rebellious.
But I decided to just have fun as my brother asked.
[A Midsummer Night's Dream]
- Hey Stella, how's it going? - Hey Stella.
- Always looking good. - Thanks.
- Got it. - Yeah.
To who? You're planning to send money to my sister?
All of this?
Your sister is getting married.
I exchanged the money today.
Don't worry. I'll make sure to get it to her.
- You get home safe last night? - Yeah.
Yeah?
Should I pour you some more coffee?
Cha Eun Sang. What about the money?
Did you bring it?
- Don't touch it. - Hurry and go back to Korea.
I'll call Mom.
Don't do this. I said don't do it!
Do you know how hard Mom worked to earn that money?
Eun Suk!
Don't go, Eun Suk!
Eun Suk!
Eun Suk.
- Hey man, you didn't show up, man! - I don't understand!
You want to come to my place?
This is to pay for the room.
- What is this? - A dreamcatcher.
It catches bad dreams.
Only beautiful dreams get let through.
It doesn't let through beautiful girls?
Forget it. Hand it over.
He said he met a girl yesterday.
That girl said her name... was Cha Eun Sang.
But he was curious about something about Cha Eun Sang.
By chance...
Do I like you?
I ate lunch by myself. Let's have dinner together.
Yes, Secretary Yoon.
There's a family party with the American shareholders at a ranch villa.
The president wants you to attend.
Just get there by lunch.
Where are we going right now?
Sleep if you're tired. It'll be a while.
Excuse me, who is that?
Have you been well?
He actually called you.
And you thought that you could come here?
How could I not? You're here so I came.
We haven't seen each other in three years.
I've... gotten a lot taller.
That's all, right?
What have you done in America.
Just stop there.
Because it was courageous enough for you to come here.
Go.
Are you okay?
I'm not okay.
Your clothes are going to get all wet.
Why were you eavesdropping?
I was going to count to three, take your hand and run if you were in danger.
Then why didn't you do it?
I was in danger the entire time.
Forget what you saw earlier.
I was going to forget everything anyway.
It's all a dream anyway. A midsummer night's dream.
You're back? You got here quick.
I'm leaving now.
- Who are you? - That's a question I should be asking you.
Who are you?
- And you are? - The fiancee of the man who lives here.
I said who are you?
How many times do I have to ask you why you're here?
Go on.
Leave before he gets back.
- You're pretty cute. - As long as you know it.
Oh my goodness!
It was like a midsummer night's dream.
I'm leaving now... Like last night's dream.
Goodbye.
What are we going to do now? Were we kicked out to the streets?
This is where we're going to live from now on.
What?
What did you just say?
It's rude to barge into someone's home like this first thing in the morning.
Someone else's house? You're the one who's not part of this family!
You're not even legally on the family register!
You can't even bear children!
[Welcome! My 'step' sister]
Hi, Sister.
You have to take good care of her now as her older brother.
Of course.
My younger sister is so my style.
The president's son?
Yeah, he's been working here every school vacation since middle school.
It's part of his training as an heir to this hotel.
And he does what he's told?
- He's nice for a rich kid. - What do you mean nice?
Sorry.
You weren't hurt?
- Try to catch me! - Why are you following me?
Why not? This is mine!
Hey, kids.
Why are you being so noisy?
She's sleeping over here.
My son!
Let me look at you.
Let me look at my son's face.
How can you just leave like that?
- Where are you going? - To get fitted for my school uniform.
My figure changed.
- You're not avoiding me. - I don't have a reason to.
You must be out of your mind. You've got no reason to avoid me?
Even though Kim Tan is back in Korea according to my sad prediction?
What are you doing right now? Are you nuts?
Don't you remember what happened on the plane?
You took my name, address, phone number, and everything.
But I'll just take your name.
Call me if you want it back.
You probably know my number.
Hey.
What's this?
Let me ask you a few things.
What's your relationship to Kim Tan?
We're not in any relationship.
What's your relationship to Yoo Rachel then?
None whatsoever.
It looks like we're on the same side.
We just met a few minutes ago.
You sure about that?
I've seen you before.
- Where? - If I tell, will you see me again?
- No. - Why not?
What? I don't want to get involved with you, so can you move?
You can't leave because of me?
It wasn't because you weren't leaving?
Wow, was I blocking this whole wide road?
I can get your phone number from Rachel, right?
[Just like we're living together]
Mom, I keep seeing the back of a girl.
- She has long hair. - Ah, the housekeeper's daughter.
She lives here with us.
She's your age and what was her name again?
Cha... Eun Sung?
What are you doing right now? Answer me quickly!
I'm drinking water.
I hate seeing my mother so tired.
Down with Jeguk Group.
[Kim Tan]
Hello?
Look up to the second floor.
Turn around.
You're... Jeguk Group's second son?
Yeah.
Then, when I ran into you outside this house...
You knew... that I was living here?
Yeah.
You knew... that I live in the maid quarters
of this house?
Yeah.
Cha Eun Sang.
By chance...
Did I miss you?
I'm coming in.
- What is that? - The Jeguk High School uniform.
Your father said you should start attending school tomorrow.
I heard the housekeeper's daughter is going to go, too.
She's going to transfer to your school.
You're going to lose to her as the son of this house?
- What? - Eun Sung.
Cha Eun Sang... is going to transfer to Jeguk High?
- What's this? Is this real? - He's for real?
He's even wearing a uniform. He must plan to come to school.
I missed you... friend.
- Welcome back. - Relax.
- I'm not going to do anything right now. - Let's just exchange greetings.
The kids are in shock.
You're done talking, right?
Come with...
We're still talking, Sister.
Wow, how can I go to school when my heart's beating so fast?
If you're worried about that, then consider transferring out.
It's not like I can leave.
My mother's the principal.
Oh, so you differentiate them by 'Mom' and 'Mother,' is that it?
Did I go too far on the first day?
It's because I'm so glad to see you again.
Let's see each other again.
- Why are you avoiding me? - Who's avoiding whom?
Is it because of what we saw the other day?
- Because it was embarrassing? - And so what?
- What did we see? - Choi Young Do.
That isn't embarrassing... It's just painful.
- What do you know? - Everyone's got something like that.
Truthfully, I'm not the principal's son.
- W... what? - I have a different mom.
I'm only telling you for the first time.
- So... - You were a concubine's son?
Hey, transfer student!
- What side are you on, Eun Sang? - What are you talking about?
There are only two reasons for someone I haven't met to show up here.
They're either a charity case or new money.
What do you belong to?
New Money!
Right? She looks just like new money.
She still looks countrified because she doesn't know how to spend money yet.
My gosh, I'm against this.
New Money, come see me.
You okay?
You were the one who tripped me!
I wouldn't be able to catch you if I didn't trip you.
Starting today, you're mine.
I can sit here, right?
Why don't you sit somewhere else?
We should at least enjoy eating lunch.
For you and for me.
I think I finally got my appetite back.
Because I finally got to sit down with the new kid.
- I'm getting up first. - Don't.
Eat up, transfer student!
Fine, let's eat.
You eat up, too.
Look at her.
How can I not be interested when she's like this?
Hey.
Why do you always sleep out here like this?
It makes me want to protect you.
What's the occasion?
You like that ramen?
Oh my god!
Why do you sleep out there? How fearless of you.
Why did you meet up with Choi Young Do?
I didn't meet up with him, I ran into him.
What can I do if I wake up and he's there?
How many times do I have to tell you to be careful around Choi Young Do?
What did he say? He didn't threaten you?
No, he told me that he wanted to protect me.
That's a threat!
Listen to me!
Stay away from Young Do in the future.
I'm not nagging. It's a warning.
I'm heading in first, so come in five minutes later.
Couldn't we run into each other once by coincidence?
I'm doing my best to not run into you.
You should come home early. I went to get this myself.
- I'm sorry... - Mom! Water.
It's nice to meet you.
I've seen you around a lot.
You did? Where? At home?
At school.
I wondered who that countrified girl was, and it turned out to be you.
You haven't seen him around school?
- No, I didn't. - Really?
- He's someone you can't help but see. - Right?
She's strange, this one.
I'm heading upstairs.
Then I'll take my leave too.
- Did you see his face? - Pardon?
I'm definitely not saying that you two should become friends.
Just because you live in the same house and you go to the same school...
You can't act like you know him or he's your friend.
Just like how you live in different parts of this house...
The circles you travel in at school have to be different too.
[Just Like We're Living Together]
[Don't Pick Up]
- What? - I want to eat black bean noodles...
- But they won't deliver just one. - What?
You want to come and eat black bean noodles with me?
Ask someone else. Why should I go there?
You will.
Haven't you seen Joon Young yet?
I told him...
If he can make you come here... I could drop the lawsuit.
Why are you toying around with people when
you don't even intend to drop the lawsuit?
It may just be a joke to you, but to Joon Young...
Who said I was joking?
Then... you're really not going to sue him?
Yeah.
- Why? - Because you came here.
What changes if I'm here?
- My feelings do. - Why should that change?
'You came to me and became a flower.' Something like that?
I'm not in the mood to joke around.
You think everything I say is a joke?
You don't like flowers?
Do you not like 'the flower' or 'come to me' part?
Choose, so I can choose whatever you hate most.
I hate them both.
Oh, I just got rejected.
I have to get back at you.
Cha Eun Sang is in Choi Young Do's suite right now.
It looks like they were eating together.
I'm hanging up.
You went to Young Do's hotel?
That was Choi Young Do's hotel?
Are you nuts?
Where did you think you were going?
Why is Choi Young Do picking on me then?
- It's because of you! - That's why I'm doing this!
Because I'm afraid something might happen to you because of me!
I'm begging you.
Can you let me not worry about you?
Can't you just stay put?
Can't you leave me alone?
It's hard enough for me to just survive.
But it's like I got on Choi Young Do's bad side.
And you're making it worse every day!
I'm not asking for much.
I just want to graduate and be in a better place than where I am now when I'm 20
But I don't know what to do.
Should I tell you what you should do?
Then start to like me from now on.
Sincerely if you can.
Because I started to like you.
Am I crazy if I want to hug you right now?
You're dead meat!
How did you find out about this place?
Hey, who do you take me for?
That's right.
I dropped the lawsuit.
- Really? - I told you that I would.
- Then... - What did you say you'd do?
This is a foul.
You're not going to go work?
Then what about you?
How did you know where she was going to be?
I'm always one step ahead of you.
- Always. - So watch your back.
I'm one step behind you.
You're going to stab me in the back with Cha Eun Sang?
Don't waste your time trying to do something so pointless.
Why? Are you two dating?
Do we look good together?
- Why ask me something like that? - We do look good together.
Don't mess with Cha Eun Sang.
I'm warning you.
You're facing this head-on, are you?
That's not really a great strategy.
Take care of your knees.
There are no rules on my mat.
What? You're going to hit me?
Oh, Madam!
You!
Hee Nam! Hee Nam!
Eun Sung!
My mom's gone.
Don't come to where I work anymore.
Why not? Did Choi Young Do said he'd go instead?
What were you two talking about before I got there?
Something weird.
Something weird what?
You don't have to say anything.
I just came by because I was lonely.
What weird thing did he tell you?
Choi Young Do said he was lonely.
But strangely, he looked lonely.
I don't think he's picking on her for my benefit.
He misses her.
What are you thinking about?
About Cha Eun Sang.
New Money?
Why would you think about her?
That's what I'm saying.
I'm also thinking about... why I'm thinking about her...
What are you doing?
Why else? It's because I want to eat lunch with you.
I don't want to eat with you.
It's embarrassing for me if you keep refusing to eat with me.
Get up.
I said get up!
What kind of dining hall is this?
Do I have to talk about your family in front of all these people?
Let's go.
You bastard.
Stop it. Don't do it.
You must have gotten the wrong idea because I've been nice to you.
I'll kill you.
Did I pick on Cha Eun Sang instead of you?
It feels strange, doesn't it?
Take me outside.
I'm begging you.
- Let me look at you. - Don't come near me!
- You'll ruin my clothes. - Stay put.
- Let me see. - It's fine...
I told you to stay still.
[Choi Young Do]
Don't do that. I have to pick up.
- Don't answer it. - He knows I'm not new money.
- He knows everything! - It's okay if he does.
- Don't answer it. - How is it okay?
- Choi Young Do found out everything! - I said don't answer it!
Hello...
Just try and answer it when I already told you not to.
That is, if you really want to see me go crazy.
I'm going to kill him.
There's no middle ground for me.
What's the matter with you guys?
Oh my god! It's a total mess!
Kim Tan and Choi Young Do are fighting in the hallway...
What about Kim Tan and Choi Young Do?
What the? Are you nuts?
- You shut up. - How dare you...
Let's talk. And let go of me.
What's the matter?
Kim Tan and Choi Young Do are fighting each other.
- What are you going to do about it? - Seriously?
What?
Hey.
Stop it, both of you. Kim Tan! Choi Young Do!
I told you two to stop.
Your life is becoming a mess because of me.
- It's not your fault. - How is it not?
Still, I'm not going to let go of your hand.
I'm going to keep going like this.
If I keep going... you'll be at the end of that road, right?
I won't be.
I'll already have run away.
That's okay. I'll come find you.
Don't.
There's nowhere else for me to go.
Then what should I do?
I like you, so what do you expect me to do?
I... I like you, too.
But so what?
Say we graduate high school.
Say we live our lives with our heads held up high.
All of my plans are falling apart, but I like you. And then what?
What good is that?
You can't protect me.
You protect yourself.
Excuse me! Can I get your number?
- It's closing time. -Hold on.
If you won't give me your number, should I give you mine?
This place is being video recorded
I'll call the police if you keep this up.
- Ooh. - The police is here.
Crazy bastard.
If you're going to be picked on, it should come from me.
Not from those losers.
I can't take customers. It's closing time.
You should thank the person who rescued you.
You're worse!
Why am I on your radar?
Why are you bullying me?
I'm not picking on you.
Will this be more like bullying you?
I went to your old place today.
- What? - Keep listening.
One. You once lived in that shabby house.
Two. But you live in Pyungchangdong now.
That's why you and I met outside the convenience store.
Three. But I'm pretty sure that you're a charity case.
- So, Four! - You're right.
I'm not new money.
I am a charity case.
Right! I knew that.
So what are you going to do about it?
Are you going to kick me out of Jeguk High now?
I like you too much to do that.
What?
But you hate me, right?
He says he's your friend.
Hi Tan.
The president... I mean, where's your mother?
I should greet her first before we play.
Mom.
Say hello.
This is my friend.
Why are you doing this?
Wow.
I didn't recognize her because she's not the mother I knew.
She must be your birth mother.
We'll talk outside, Mom.
Follow me. Before I kill you.
If this is what you wanted...
then you went about this the wrong way, Choi Young Do.
Look at that.
I did set this up well.
You even visit each other at home?
That's not what I came here for.
Jackpot.
I had plans with Cha Eun Sang.
Sorry for making you come all the way over here.
Let's go watch it next time.
- Hey, Cha Eun Sang! - Just go!
Straight there.
What are you two?
What does it look like?
For her to visit a house full of secrets...
That means only one thing.
Are you siblings?
We're brothers, you idiot.
I'm telling you to at least give me an excuse.
Why is she visiting you in broad daylight?
Does your fiancee know about this?
I'm dating Cha Eun Sang.
It's not an excuse, but a fact.
Rachel already knows.
What does your family do? How rich is your new money family?
I think I should know now.
That's really childish.
That's really annoying.
Kim Tan and I are engaged. Do you know what that means?
What's your point
It doesn't mean we're dating, but it's a pact between our companies.
They will share stock shares, shared technology...
It's a deal that could be worth hundreds of millions of Won.
That's childish?
You've... wedged yourself in this pact.
But this is childish to you?
Aren't you curious about what I told Choi Young Do?
Our stories should match up.
What did you tell him?
I told him that we're dating.
- What? - Do you have a better idea?
Still, how could you lie like that?
Who said I was lying?
I'm going to go out with you.
Let's date. Starting today.
If your mother finds out about this, my mom and I...
We'll be kicked to the streets.
So can you stop talking about changing my fate, young master?
Do you find my feelings laughable?
Is my sincerity funny to you?
Do you find my efforts laughable?
Are we suited for each other? Do I suit you?
Fine. It seems like it.
You and I aren't suited for each other.
I'm out of your league.
I took a risk for you.
But you won't do anything for me.
I thought you were a beautiful dream...
Cha Eun Sang, you're a bad dream.
I think that's Eun Sang. Would you like me to pick her up?
Do you think we can ride together?
Her... and myself?
Did you fight with Kim Tan?
I'm in the middle of running away
You two sitting here, there's no prettier picture.
I'm sorry...
But what do I need to do to break of this engagement?
I don't want to do it anymore. Being Tan's fiancee.
Why would she say that?
I don't like Rachel.
Is that a reason?
I'm getting the sense that your brother was right.
I think that it was better that you were in America.
- You're different from Won. - Yes.
Because I'm an illegitimate child.
That's why you need Rachel!
This is so that you can survive.
You need insurance to have power.
Rachel is the best insurance you can get!
I don't need that kind of insurance.
[I'll cross all the world's thresholds for you] - Let's talk.
- Why aren't you going on the camping trip? - Because I don't want to see you.
So how can you not...
What are you doing outside someone's door?
If you've got something to say, come inside and say it.
If you don't, then forget it.
I do!
You were probably alone with Young Do in his room like this, too.
What?
When he called you over to his hotel. What did you guys talk about?
Good night.
There's a chance you could run into my mom if you leave right now.
I can avoid her.
You probably can't.
Because I'm going to scream as soon as you step out that door.
Do it.
You told me to. Mom!
Really!
Wait.
Just one minute.
This is the first time you're in my room.
I can't come in here.
The house you live in and the room I live in...
They're different worlds.
There are thresholds I can't cross in this world.
Your room... is one of them.
- Do you ever listen to what I say... - Just wait a bit longer.
I'll let you cross any doorway you want in this world.
I'm trying to think of how right now.
What's your relationship to Kim Tan?
What about it?
What are you going to do about it? What are you?
Just torment me.
Just do what you always do.
I'm not afraid of you anymore.
Don't any of you come outside.
I warned you!
Sorry. My hands slipped.
Do you really have to go this far?
Is this the kind of sincerity you wanted to get across?
You must be serious about her.
What are you going to do if I am?
Then do you want to relay my sincerity too?
Tell Cha Eun Sang...
That I think I like her.
What I did to you just now... is what Kim Tan will do in the future.
He'll pretend to catch you...
but he'll let go in the end.
So let go before he does.
Let go and go far away.
Sorry.
- My foot slipped. - It can happen!
It doesn't feel so bad.
It feels like I've won.
Get out.
What do you plan to do?
What?
You're going to let her be called a concubine like someone else I know?
Shut up.
Can you even handle it?
I just asked you.
Can you handle your engagement?
Ah, let me ask you this favor.
It's time for it to be changed.
I saw you.
Come in here for a second.
If you turn your back on me, I'll hug you.
You'll be dead meat.
If you talk back to me, I'll kiss you.
What do you expect me...
to do?
Be nice to me.
- Later. - Later when?
You didn't keep your word from even five minutes ago.
I had a bad feeling about this.
What are you two doing here?
Are you crazy?
- Mom. - Madam...
- It's not like that? - You won't quiet down?
Were you two dating in secret?
Mom, talk to me.
Are you nuts?
Do you think this is your house because you live here?
Did you think you could come up here if you had something to say?
Don't, Mom!
It's hard enough for her because I like her.
What?
I said I like her.
I don't like you doing this to her!
Your father will hear. You won't be quiet?
Hurry up and go.
What's wrong? Did something happen?
What do we do, Mom?
How did you raise your daughter?
She doesn't even know her place and she goes into Tan's room?
I'm sorry, Madam. I'm sorry.
It was wrong of my daughter to go into your son's room.
But it's your son who keeps asking where she is.
Why do you keep pinning the blame on her when you don't know the entire story?
Mom, come with me.
I'm sorry. I'm truly sorry.
What are you sorry about? Let go of me.
I don't ever want to see you again, so get out of this house immediately!
Let go!
I'm sorry, Mom.
I'm sorry that you had to hear that.
I'm sorry that I can't speak and take your side.
My daughter...
No, I'm the one who's sorry.
Because I like him.
I'm really sorry, Mom.
[8 Missed Calls: Kim Tan]
Do you want my help if you're trying to avoid Kim Tan?
I don't need your help.
Still, let's give it try anyway.
You don't have anything to lose, so you just clap by the sidelines.
Get off of me.
Get off of me while I ask nicely.
Bear with it even if you hate it.
It's better if you don't hate it.
I'm curious what Kim Tan will gamble.
What?
Cha Eun Sang, look at me.
- Let go. - You, shut up.
I can't take it anymore.
I'm sorry.
We made it all this way.
- Let's not do this anymore. - Don't do this!
You always make people leave you.
What about Tan?
Did he leave?
I want to party right now, but why are you crying?
It doesn't hook her in.
- Whoa! - What?
Jackpot!
- Hey Choi Young Do! - Do you like Cha Eun Sang for real?
Half of this vast world are women and you look for your first love in this school?
Oh my god. This is your first love?
So that's what I look like.
When I'm looking at Cha Eun Sang.
- Where are you? - Why did you call?
I'm in your neighborhood. Do you want to eat noodles with me...
What a mess.
- If you don't like noodles, then... - Fine.
I like noodles.
I'm at the intersection. Meet me there.
Why are you coming from the convenience store
if you said you were at the intersection?
You're Eun Sang's mother, yes?
Tell the other kids if you want to.
Torment me if you want to.
Instead, don't come looking for me or my mom until we move.
Because... that's where my mom works.
Who said anything?
If you're done talking, let's go get noodles.
Don't change the subject and tell me.
That way I can prepare myself.
- What are you going to do to me? - What would I do?
I don't even know what to do with my own scars!
What am I going to do with yours?
I was just sad when you weren't here.
And I'm happy that you're back.
Your secret is heavy.
And that's it.
Did I say I was going to do something else?
I've seen what you can do plenty of times.
You did that to me, too.
That's why I can't do anything to you now!
You should have just said, 'Let's go get noodles.'
I can't hang out with you.
Let's get noodles next time.
Do you think the other kids will be shocked that Kim Tan is an illegitimate son...
Or that Cha Eun Sang is the housekeeper's daughter?
You found out.
- Do we look good together? - Your voice is trembling right now.
I know you put in a lot of effort...
But don't you dare think of using that to threaten Cha Eun Sang.
Why would I threaten her?
I'm threatening you right now.
So you...
Don't protect Cha Eun Sang.
If you don't protect her...
then I'll protect both of you.
It doesn't matter what you do to me.
But... Not Cha Eun Sang.
Don't mess with her.
I don't have time to fight with you.
I'm... preparing for a bigger fight right now.
- What are you doing? - I told you.
That I would show you where you belong in this family.
It's been a long time. Seeing you like this.
It's been eighteen years, hasn't it?
When you were first caught by me.
Get out!
Mom.
Yeah?
Don't let go of my hand.
What's gotten into you?
Let go of me.
The person next to me...
Is my mother.
The one who had me. My birth mother.
And I'm... Chairman Kim Nam Yoon of Jeguk Group's second son...
And his illegitimate son.
Wait. Just a minute!
It's all my fault!
What are you doing? Tell your father you're sorry!
Chairman!
Stop.
- Beg for forgiveness, Tan! - I don't want to.
I won't beg this time.
I'll live my life. And if I later regret my decision...
I'll beg for forgiveness then.
I'm confident that I won't regret it.
What are you going to do?
You awful boy!
What are you going to do?
What happened?
You told me this once when we were in America...
That you would hold my hand and run away if I was in danger.
Does that still hold true in Korea?
I see.
Does spending the night together and going to school together
feel different all of a sudden?
Wifey?
Let's try having courage.
I'm sorry I took so long.
You smile so easily.
Let's go.
[The One I'm Waiting For]
It feels like you're just trying to find something to do.
Sit down and rest for a minute.
You should probably listen to me.
Hey!
It would have been better for you to sit in the first place.
- You always make me do this... - What do you want?
For you to answer your own phone.
For you to reply when I talk to you.
For you to say hi when our eyes meet.
I get it now.
I get that you like me.
And I know that you're pretending that you don't know my secret when you do.
I'm sorry for avoiding you.
Then there's only one thing I can do.
Reject your feelings. I'm sorry.
I really got rejected.
Can I get revenge on you?
I can't harass you anymore.
Because it hurts my heart.
So I'm going to harass everyone else but you.
My beloved Jeguk High classmates.
I just wanted to share a fun story with all of you.
A story about the second son of Jeguk Group.
Kim Tan.
I have mixed feelings about finally getting to say this.
The truth about Kim Tan is...
Unbelievably...
The truth is...
going to be revealed in sixty seconds.
The time has come.
The one I was waiting for.
Get out.
You won't let go?
Is the revenge you wanted to take on me?
- Let go. - No.
I went through all that trouble for this one moment.
So you bear with me.
Open the door.
Open this door before I kill you!
Open it.
You'll die by my hands once I get in there.
Open it!
The 'everyone else' I intended to torment...
includes Kim Tan.
And also myself.
Get out of the way.
Don't.
Don't come in here.
Who are you laying your hands on, you crazy bastard?
How far are you going to go?
How much more do I have to put up with?
I told you to leave Cha Eun Sang alone.
You have to let go of her first for me to leave her alone.
I warned you.
Not to protect Cha Eun Sang.
- You're going to take this to the end? - I have to.
I already came this far.
A bigger fight?
You've got to be kidding me.
Did you call off your engagement?
You're going to end up begging on your knees in front of your father.
What you're doing...
It's not a bigger fight, but a senseless one.
Then have you even tried to tackle a senseless fight?
If I have to kneel down, then I will!
But I just need to get back up again.
And if I keep getting up, then there will be a day I won't have to fall.
Are you the reason behind this fight?
[Cha Eun Sang]
This is only the beginning.
It already pisses me off enough that the housekeeper's daughter
is pretending that she's new money.
But that fearless crazy bitch is now dating my fiancee.
You think doing this will make me feel better?
I wanted to remain friends with you.
But that won't do.
I'll just lose another friend then.
I'm outside Cha Eun Sang's part-time job right now.
Aren't you curious what I'll do?
Follow that motorcycle.
You really want to kid around?
You're going to hit girls now?
I'm not afraid to be an ass for Cha Eun Sang.
You should be afraid.
Because the fact that you like Cha Eun Sang is poisonous to her.
Why are you out here? It's cold outside...
Yoo Rachel found out that you work here.
If Rachel comes looking for you later, make sure you call me...
I've got plenty of dark knights.
Don't worry.
Why does our transfer student have so many dark knight around her?
It makes me feel competitive.
I think it was around then.
When I started to like you.
It still worries me even if you've got a lot of dark knights.
Call me.
Yoon Chan Young and Lee Bo Na's Back Together Party! Thanks for coming.
This is the catering service!
Truthfully, it's that...
- I'm really... - Kim Tan!
- Follow me. - Not now.
I'm her to provide catering service.
I ordered it. I thought there weren't enough drinks at this party.
Coffee for me.
- Fine. - When do you finish?
After I pour everything.
Why do you have to do this?
Why did you come here if you already knew what would happen?
How could I not when I'm here to earn money?
I hate seeing you be treated like this!
What I'm most embarrassed about...
When you called me New Money at school...
I couldn't say anything.
I wasn't embarrassed that I was poor...
but I was embarrassed that I had to lie!
Don't you think I know that already?
Can't you just take the easy road?
I came here to tell the kids everything.
You said it too.
You hid your secret your entire life until a few days ago.
- But you did it anyway! - Even if I did, can you not?
I know from experience! Don't do it.
Telling them won't make you happier.
- But still... - You'll get hurt!
Why are you so stubborn?
I learned that from you.
I know that I'll get hurt, but still, I'll look straight ahead.
I'll be back.
What? Say it again.
The reason I have a part-time job is because I have to earn money...
And the reason I have to earn money is because my family is poor.
I'm sorry for deceiving you.
I'm not new money.
I... transferred here as a charity case.
- What? - What?
A charity case?
- What happened? - What's going on?
- Oh my god. - Oh my...
Kim Tan, did you know she was a charity case?
Were you deceived too?
Yeah, I was.
I thought she was pretty okay because she pretended to be so strong.
But she's trembling.
I did it.
Nice to meet you.
Charity Case Cha Eun Sang.
I'm... Illegitimate Son Kim Tan.
Totally cool Kim Tan!
Stop being so cute.
Kim Tan... who only walks towards me.
What have you done?
What have you done that this would be returned to us?
Rachel had no intention of calling off the engagement!
She finally made the right decision.
Is Cha Eun Sang the reason you're doing all of this?
It's because of you, Father.
Must I do something to her?
Do you never want to see me again?
Those children are just eighteen years old and in high school!
It's not like they intend to get married right away!
They weren't going to get married but now the engagement has been called off!
You... don't you dare leave your room!
You can't go to school.
You came by yourself?
Has Kim Tan been locked up?
There are security guards standing in front of the stairs to the second floor.
Tan's probably really scared, right?
Hey.
Why are you going so far, Cha Eun Sang?
Do you think I'm on your side because I like you?
Or do you think I'm on Kim Tan's side?
Why are you so absent-minded?
We can't even talk like this as friends?
Who says we're friends? Why am I your friend?
Don't draw that line.
Before I just jump over it.
I said I'm here to see Kim Tan.
State your reason first.
Do you know who I am?
Tell him that the heir to Hotel Zeus, Choi Young Do, is here.
Hello, Father.
Right, it's Young Do.
But... why did you create a fuss and brought your guards to my house?
I came here to do homework with Tan.
What?
Why do you look so moved?
Hey, you crazy bastard.
Don't you register the mood in this house?
What did you plan to do by coming here?
My father hates me enough as it is.
How filial of you.
You never cease to amaze me.
How could an illegitimate son become the major shareholder
in just half a day?
Buy our company's shares before they go up any higher.
I'm the only illegitimate son in this family.
But there won't ever be a chance like this one again.
- Why are you getting dressed? - I have to get out of here.
You want to stay here or help me out?
I shouldn't help you.
In our relationship. But...
I like the idea that you'll be indebted to me.
Then take it.
Get him!
Let go!
Come on you guys!
Do you have business with me?
Find him.
Find him!
They're highly suspicious.
My hair's completely messed up.
I saw the notice.
I thought that I had to come see you once I saw it.
So look at me, hear me out... and believe me.
I can't trust you now, and I can't trust who you'll be ten years from now.
Today's only the beginning.
Your true intention is to have the same number of shares as me.
What do I have to do for you to believe me?
Then go to America.
Hand over all your shares and go to America.
Go and never come back.
Then I'll believe you.
I'll ask you for the last time.
Do you have to do this?
I'll say this for the last time.
Just tell me whether you're leaving for America or not.
I'm not going.
I don't want to.
And I don't want to give you my shares.
Just now...
I changed my mind.
You want my shares?
Try and take them.
[Painful Love]
I'm sorry. For locking you up like this.
I think it's all my fault.
Cha Eun Sang. Look at me.
It's not your fault.
I came back on my own so that I wouldn't be locked up anymore.
Because the way to be with you...
is to not be with you.
Instead, no matter what choice I make...
You have to trust me.
Now all I have left is you.
What's happening to you?
I'm liking you.
I think this could be the right time to tell you or not...
There's something I need to tell you.
- What is it? - Did you hear Eun Sang is going overseas?
Study abroad?
I'll give you two weeks.
You can see Tan however much you want in that time.
On the condition that you break up after those two weeks...
And you must go where I send you.
What are you doing? Class hasn't...
- What is he doing? - Hey, hey, hey.
Hey, Kim Tan!
[Seoul: Buenos Aires]
Come out with your passport. Or I'll come in there and you're dead meat.
I'll keep this.
Don't go anywhere.
Promise me.
Where is this? Whose house is this?
Your house.
Is this your way to cross every doorway in this world?
It's just the beginning.
That I'm too impatient and that it's this way...
I'm sorry that it's so general.
I'll be better.
I'll work hard to make sure it's close to the way
that you can understand.
I'll be back.
See you at home.
Come back safely.
I'll wait for you at home.
About Eun Sang...
The girl you hid away.
She left Korea... an hour ago.
I'm sorry for running away like this.
Kim Tan, the relief is in my unhappiness.
I'm really... going to disappear like last night's midsummer night's dream.
In that dream...
I was glad to see you in it.
Kim Tan.
Cha Eun Sang disappeared.
You made that happen.
She is alive, right?
I'm not in the mood to worry about you.
I don't have the time for that either.
I'm going to find her in my own way, so you find her in yours.
The Gangnam Police?
- What's the matter? - You got in contact with her?
I'll head down to where the victim is.
Mister, why isn't Cha Eun Sang here yet?
- What? - Did she run away?
That's why I came down here to meet her!
It's really Choi Young Do.
Hey, Choi Young Do, you're really...
Thanks.
For being safe.
For showing up.
Thanks a lot.
I traveled a long way. Aren't you glad to see me?
Looks like you're looking forward to seeing someone else.
But I won't dare mention him, so don't expect it.
So you're going to stay here?
You're not coming back to Seoul?
- When I forget about Kim Tan. - Then you'll come back to Seoul soon.
Is this her?
I think so.
She had a Seoul accent and was here an hour ago to buy plastic gloves.
What right do you have to completely ruin someone else's life?
I was trying to make sure you were living up to your standard.
- Don't do it. - Don't... go try to find her.
The moment you try to...
will be the day that girl's life is truly ruined.
Then start liking me from now on.
I've started to like you.
I'll make it so you can cross any doorway in this world.
All I've got is you now.
I can't lose you, too!
What?
I'll do everything you want.
If you want me to go to America, I will.
If you want me to hand over all my shares, I will.
If you tell me never to come back again...
I won't.
If you tell me you never want to see me again...
Then I will.
So you...
From Father, from me...
Rescue Eun Sang.
So you have to return Eun Sang to the way things were.
Are you saying that you won't see her again?
Are you okay with that?
Lastly...
I'm going to see her one last time.
How can you be here?
What do I do if you suddenly show up like this?
Sorry.
If you're sorry, then leave.
I ran away to avoid you, but why did you come find me?
Sorry.
By chance...
From the moment we met to now...
did I cause you pain?
Yeah.
So I did.
I won't come to see you again.
For asking you to hold my hand...
For asking you to be courageous...
I'm sorry about everything.
Goodbye.
Cha Eun Sang.
Tan! Tan!
Tan, open the door! Open the door!
I won't ever meet her again.
You've won, Father.
I... lost.
So... leave her alone.
You half-wit.
Why would you cause so much trouble because of one girl?
Because it hurts my heart!
I'm in pain and I'm lonely!
Because living sucks!
This punk won't listen!
- Huh? - You want to die?
Let go!
Don't!
Do you really want to die?
You punk! Come to your senses!
If you miss Cha Eun Sang, then at least go and see her at a distance!
I'm not going anymore.
You take her.
Do you even deserve to break down like this?
I don't.
I can't do this anymore.
Young Do.
How long are you going to be like this?
Nothing in this house will change if you behave like this!
You're the one who knows that best!
Won.
When am I going to America?
I really feel like I'm going to die.
Can't you just send me?
Save me, Won. Please.
He probably came by. Did you see him?
He told me that he was going to see you.
I'm not seeing him anymore.
I won't see him.
- Isn't that enough? - When do you want to go back?
To your old life.
If making a decision is too hard...
Don't look too far into the future and just look to tomorrow.
If you think about what you want to do tomorrow
your answer will change.
I took a risk for you.
But you won't do anything for me.
[Nevertheless, Straight Ahead]
Hi Kim Tan.
I'm not going to run away anymore.
For now, I'm going to take the finals.
After that, I'll make another excuse.
And... I'll stay here.
By your side.
I like you.
I missed you.
I thought I was going to die.
I heard Cha Eun Sang came to school.
What? She didn't quit?
I'll say.
You want to walk out or be dragged out?
Did something happen?
Now I understand how a loan shark feel.
How nice would it be if you repaid your debt without notice?
Do I have to come collect it from you by force?
Let's go eat noodles.
Why did you come back to school?
- To take the exams. - Besides that.
Because I wanted to come back.
So you're saying you have to take that road, do you?
I wanted to take it.
Don't get hurt while fighting the Chairman.
You can stand down if it's too difficult.
That way I can say, 'Nice, I knew that would happen.'
I will.
Take care. Let's not see each other again.
I'm dumping you right now.
You and I...
can't be friends either?
I told you before. I don't do that.
You were a woman to me from the start...
And you're a woman to me now.
And from now on...
You're my first love.
Let's not say hi when our eyes meet.
Let's not ask each other how we're doing either.
Even after a long time passes...
Let's not smile and pretend to reminisce about how we were back then.
Tan! Let me ask you a question! A remark if you can!
At today's party...
Who is that? Is that his new fiancee?
A fiancee?
Who is that?
Are you nervous?
A little.
This could be difficult.
But nevertheless...
Straight ahead.
Kim Tan! A word!
Are you out of your minds right now?
Do you know how many eyes and gossipy mouths are here?
If you're not crazy...
How can you appear in front of the cameras like that?
I told you that I would give you a bigger world!
I said that I paved a way for you!
I know what world you'll give me.
But Father... that world you'll give me...
I don't want it more than I want her.
So... give us your permission, Father.
You two like each other that much?
Go on and date then.
Are you being serious?
If you think this is my permission, it's not.
I'm positive... that you will come... to regret this decision.
Were we just given permission or a threat?
Permission that can always be changed into a threat?
- Then we... - Yeah.
We just... crossed a doorway.
I'm sorry for causing you so much trouble and worry.
Please forgive me.
Please give us your blessing, Mother.
Is your mother opposing this right now?
My son is handsome, tall, and kind...
He even risked his life for Eun Sang.
It's a pity for my son. Why don't you like it?
My Eun Sang is pretty, kind, and good at her studies.
What dd she say?
So... that...
Your curfew is at 9 PM from now on.
Just try and be late.
If you come home holding hands like today, you'll get a beating!
She says for you to always take me home and that it's okay to hold hands.
Do what you're good at! Do what you're good at!
Huh?
Ow!
Oh my goodness! Hee Nam!
- Did you just hit my son? - Tan, are you okay?
It must hurt a lot!
I think I'll be okay if she gives her blessing!
Sue her if she doesn't!
Sue her!
Ow!
Thanks, Mom.
Thank you, Mother.
When we were eighteen years old...
We fell for each other, liked each other...
Cried and ran away...
Fell on our knees...
And we turned our backs on each other countless times.
Nevertheless, when we were eighteen years old...
Ran into each other's arms, held each other's hands...
And tightly held onto each other.
But when are you going to treat me?
You actually believed that I would?
Hey, what wouldn't a girl say when she's flirting?
Look at you.
Are you trying not to treat me on purpose?
Because you want to cook for me yourself every morning?
By chance... was I just proposed to?
Probably not.
That's not charming at all.
Hey, Cha Eun Sang. Stop right there.
What did I tell you I'd do if you turned your back on me?
Why aren't you talking back to me?
Want to come over to my place?
Are you only glad to see me in your dreams?
We might stumble or kneel again.
- But we... - Despite that, we...
We go forward.
