Although they're not blood-related, they are brother and sister.
They can't marry.
Brother and sister? What the heck are you talking about?
Ignore him. He's drunk.
What are you waiting for? Take him out.
Okay.
Come out, you jerk!
Aunt Dohee clearly told me...
...that Mrs. Yi switched her dead baby with Mrs. Minn's!
Are you crazy? What's wrong with you?
How dare you show your drunken frenzy here?
Get out of my house!
Hold on.
Can you be responsible for what you said?
Of course.
I may talk in slur but I'm sober.
Please stop!
Seyoon's real mother is...
...her.
My mother-in-law.
What the heck are you babbling about?
Cholgyu! Cholgyu!
Mom, is it true?
Excuse me...
...for leaving first.
Mother.
Choonhee, say something.
What in the world is going on?
Something must be wrong, right?
How can...? It can't be possible.
You're the one to give us a full account.
What happened?
Please go home and ask Solju.
Mother.
Let me take you home.
It's okay. I can go by myself.
I'm okay. Bye.
Seyoon.
You knew everything, and you kept it from me?
How could you?
Both mothers didn't want to hurt you.
I can't believe it. There must be some mix-up.
Excuse us for leaving like this.
Goodbye.
You look shocked. Are you okay?
So it's true?
Yes, Mother.
Oh my. How could she do that?
I know. Men and melons are hard to know.
Can't believe such a dignified-looking lady stole someone else's baby.
I still can't believe it.
By the way, how did Cholgyu find out?
Can't you guess? Dohee has an itching tongue.
Your mouth is trouble.
Why did you have to tell him and stir up troubles?
I felt pity for him.
Pity? Don't you know what he's done to Chaewon?
He's been single-hearted toward her.
Though his mother was awful.
Isn't your crocodile purse a gift from him?
Crocodile purse?
I returned everything to him.
Everything?
That means, you accepted other gifts?
Changing your side readily, you have no principles?
How could you side with him no matter how much you coveted that purse?
It wasn't because of the purse.
I was moved by his pure love for Chaewon.
In any case, she can't marry Seyoon.
So what are we gonna do now?
I regarded him as my potential grandson-in-law.
What to do now?
Why you don't say anything? Cat got your tongue?
I'm sleepy. Make my bed.
Good night.
He seems to be really disappointed, too.
What to do?
We're in a fix.
We can neither push ahead nor call off the marriage.
Listen.
He sleeps here as if it were his home.
Hey, wake up. Go home!
Hey!
You should've discussed it with me.
How could you keep it to yourself?
Aren't I your husband?
I thought I'd better keep it to myself for all our sakes.
I'm sorry I disappointed you.
Then were you going to hide it from Seyoon forever?
He is my son, but Chaewon is also my daughter.
If I get him back, she'll have to cry bitter tears.
What could I have done?
Not knowing that, I kept telling you to get him back.
I don't know what to do about this problem.
I really don't know why things turned out like this.
Seyoon looked very shocked. I'm worried about him.
Tell me the whole story in detail.
Is what he said true? Did you...
Did you really...?
Yes. It's true.
I did it.
Honey.
Mom.
It may sound like an excuse but I had no choice.
After four miscarriages, I bore a son and he died.
How could I be sane?
Your mother hated her orphan daughter-in-law...
...and pressured me to carry on a family line.
I had no other choice.
Choonhee was taken to a hospital after giving birth,
...and I breastfed you prior to my baby.
When you were looking at me while feeding...
...I felt like you were my own baby.
I mean every word I'm saying.
You can't justify your actions.
I'm not trying to justify it.
I'm saying how I felt at that time.
I've never thought you weren't my son, not even in my dreams.
You totally fooled me. How could you do that?
I might sound brazen but...
...if I were put in the same situation...
...I would do the same.
I'm so glad that I'm your mom.
I'm so glad that you're my son.
In the afterlife, beyond the grave, Seyoon...
I will continue to be your mom.
Seems you really care for your mom.
It's nothing compared to what she's done for me.
She thinks the world of me.
Like I'm a Prince Charming.
Really?
If you stare at me like that, I can't eat.
I'm sorry.
Aren't you shocked?
The person you have reached is not available.
His phone is turned off. Where on earth is he?
You're still up?
How can I sleep since you left like that?
Where were you until now?
I went to my in-laws.
- Which in-laws? Chaewon's? - Yes.
They were having dinner with Seyoon's family, and I threw a wet blanket.
What do you mean?
I disclosed that his real mom is Mrs. Minn.
Wait. Maybe you were misinformed.
Are you sure Mrs. Minn is his real mom?
Yeah.
Mrs. Yi switched her dead baby with Seyoon.
Oh dear! That's terrible!
Oh my. She acts all noble and sophisticated...
...but she's such a lowlife in reality.
What are you doing up at this hour?
Juri, you were lucky that you broke up with Seyoon.
How so?
It turned out that he's the son of Chaewon's stepmom.
What are you talking about?
You're back. I was worried about you.
Leave me alone.
Seyoon.
Please.
I don't want to hear or talk about anything.
I see.
I'll let you rest.
Seyoon just came home.
Where are you going?
I'll sleep in the study for now.
You're up early. I can prepare breakfast.
I'm sorry about what happened last night.
I didn't know Cholgyu would do that.
She's giving me the cold shoulder.
You deserve the chill on you.
It's a shame that you ratted on it to Cholgyu for the crocodile purse.
I told you. I didn't do it for the purse.
I was moved by his pure love!
To hell with pure love.
Good morning, Sook!
I'm having ramen after a recording job overnight.
The spicy ramen soup reminds me of you.
Who sent a message from the morning?
Just a spam message.
The person you have reached is not available.
Can I come in?
Yes.
Have you heard from Seyoon yet?
No.
I'm afraid something bad has happened to him.
I'll visit him in his office later today.
I was going to keep him in the dark. I don't know how things got this way.
How disappointed you must be.
Going to work already? What about breakfast?
It's okay.
How come we still show a loss while sales keep increasing?
Why do we have to take out a private loan?
Give me a month. We'll begin our turnaround.
Can I trust you?
In the launching stage, we had lots of promotions and events.
We spent a lot on ads.
Now that we raised brand awareness, we'll begin routine marketing.
By the way, is what Cholgyu said true?
Yes, it is. My goodness.
Mrs. Yi is such a snob acting all gracious.
Can't believe she stole a baby.
We almost became in-laws with that lowlife.
A mere thought of her makes me shudder.
I might be late. Bye, Mom.
Oh, okay. Take care.
Tsk, tsk, tsk.
Your sister already went to work on an empty stomach.
Look at you.
Aren't I a dummy boss?
How laidback.
Laidback? I can't even sleep at the thought of Chaewon.
She can't marry Seyoon anyways, can she?
Don't just sit back.
Visit her family and persuade them. Please?
Not like Juri and Seyoon are still on. Why would I visit her family?
You don't want grandchildren?
What?
I'll remain single if I can't have Chaewon.
Do as you like if you don't want grandkids.
Do I really have to do that?
She doesn't believe my words that you have changed.
So you visit them and prove that you have changed.
Blame my fate. Why me?
Mom!
You scared me!
Please, do me a favor.
Hi.
Seyoon.
When did you come?
Just now.
Have a seat.
I couldn't get a hold of you, so I was worried.
Are you alright?
I'm trying to be alright, to stay cool.
But it's hard.
Mom was worried a lot about you.
You didn't have breakfast, did you?
She packed your breakfast.
I made the heart-shape...
...with Mom's heart.
How is she?
She's doing okay.
It must've been hard for her all this time.
When did she find out?
I guess it wasn't very long.
Her Mother Superior sent her a diary as she passed away.
There won't be any changes.
Even though my real mom is your mother...
...nothing changes in our relationship.
Later.
Let's talk about us later.
Sales are dropping after the promotion.
And our rival company released a new product today.
New product?
This is our new product. Please try some.
Try our new noodles.
Hello.
Long time no see.
Now you're doing everything from developing noodles to sales?
If you're not gonna try it, move aside.
Let me try.
I wonder what my competitor's noodles taste like.
Thanks.
Oh.
Congrats...
You got such a reliable brother like Seyoon.
Again, congrats.
Hi, try our new noodles.
Put Mr. Kim on.
Do you know our rival released a new product today?
I just tasted it and it's a whole new product.
Find out how they made it.
Thank you.
Hi. Try our new noodles.
Try our new noodles.
What a surprise!
Since you texted me you ate ramen, I brought radish kimchi.
I didn't text you to ask for kimchi.
It's okay between us.
I wanted to bring my kimchi to you, so feel free to eat.
You made it yourself?
Of course.
I'm moved...
...that I can eat your kimchi!
Is it a dream or a reality? Pinch me.
Ouch.
Since you came here, let me show you around.
Oh. Your brother-in-law is in.
My brother-in-law?
Gene. His album is released today.
Well. I have to leave now.
Why?
Today isn't the only day. Bongsoo...
Don't tell him I was here or that I brought kimchi.
Why?
He's kind of freak and he's on bad terms with my family.
Okay. Don't worry.
You had a visitor?
Oh. Just a friend.
I mixed it for you. Enjoy it.
Thank you!
Have some kimchi.
Thank you.
It tastes quite familiar.
Excuse me?
Never mind.
Tastes the same as my in-law's kimchi.
We've got his album hot from the oven.
Wow.
Do you like it?
What are you doing?
Mr. Khang, you are the savior of my life.
I'll make a great hit and pay you back.
I will become the Psy of trot music!
Okay, okay. Now calm down.
I'll never make you regret choosing me. I'll do my best!
I'm confident!
Okay. Now, let's eat.
I'll start a new trend in K-pop!
Okay, I see what you mean. Enough.
You're the guiding light of my life!
Now, enough!
The noodles are all soggy now.
The thing I hate the most is soggy noodles.
You finish it all.
Sorry, I was too excited.
I think it'll taste okay.
Father?
Father! Father!
You look sick. Are you okay?
Take me home.
You don't need to see a doctor?
Just take me home.
Okay. Get on my back.
What happened?
He was collapsed outside the pharmacy, so I brought him home.
Then you should've taken him to a hospital.
No, no. I'm okay.
You're not okay. You can be in big trouble.
I collapsed on purpose to test my son-in-law's strength.
Father, did you just call me your son-in-law?
Seeing you run with me on your back, I'm sure you'll live long.
I think I can entrust you with Keeok.
Does that mean you'll accept me as your son-in-law?
Thank you.
Thank you, Father.
Today, my album was released. I was on cloud nine.
And you called me a son-in-law.
I can die without regret.
Hey.
What will become of Keeok if you die now?
I'm just saying.
What's that nonsense?
Hi, Mother.
What are you doing here?
Father accepted me.
Please accept me now, Mother.
Cut the crap.
Are you senile? How could you accept him?
Is it dementia?
Please stop.
What is it you want to say?
Maybe I shouldn't say this but...
...I feel light-hearted.
I've never felt at peace for the past thirty years.
I always suffered from nightmares and felt restless.
From the moment I stole your son...
...I've been shut up in my conscience...
...weighed down with guilt.
I thought that was the price I should pay for my sin.
You deserved it. You messed up my life.
You wouldn't be human if you slept in peace.
What can I do to open your heart?
Though I can't soothe your wounded heart...
...what should I do to make up for your life?
If I am punished by law, would that make you feel better?
Or do you want me to vanish?
You want me to go abroad?
Or do you want me to put Seyoon,...
...your son, into your family register?
If he lives with you, would you feel better?
I'll do whatever you say.
I mean it.
I'll think about it.
I really....
...missed you.
Though I browbeat you to go back to America,
I was so glad to see you again after 30 years.
I had thought I'd better tell you the truth and beg for your forgiveness.
My heart was getting weak, so to steel my heart...
...I was much meaner and harsher to you.
Can't we go back to our old days?
You're shameless.
How can you hope to go back to the old days?
I'll never forgive you till you die.
No. Even after I die, I wouldn't forgive you.
Stop harping on the same string.
Okay. Okay, I got it.
I'll have their definite answer today, so be patient!
Oh, Mrs. Minn! How have you been?
I guess you've been uneasy.
How upset you must be because of that human trash.
What brings you here?
Cholgyu told me everything. I was worried about you.
So I came to comfort you.
Ha. Speak of the devil.
What a shameless lowlife!
Acting all gracious, she's entirely sly.
I've seen all sorts of thieves, but you're the worst.
The newspapers must banner her face so she can't live among us.
She's trash!
Enough.
Oh, you're so generous.
If I were you, I would cuff and throw her into a cell!
Still acting elegant. She's so disgusting.
If you're done, please leave.
Oh, I have business with you.
I have nothing to say to you.
Oh, Mrs. Minn. You could at least offer a glass of water to us.
Ma'am, I'll be waiting outside.
Okay.
How are you?
Last night, her son made a scene, and now it's her turn.
What are you doing here?
Come on, we promised to join our forces.
Do we have a visitor?
Oh, how are you?
What is she doing here?
I have something to discuss with you.
So my point is, let's hook them up.
Come again?
Now that Chaewon's marriage talk with Seyoon went up in smoke,
let's set things right and reunite her with my son.
Marriage isn't a joke. That's impossible.
Yeah, impossible. Who knows what you'll do to her again?
What? I think you're going too far with your words.
We're not going too far.
The thought of how you mistreated her still makes us angry.
Why don't you say anything?
Please put in a helping word for me.
What helping word? Please stop bothering me.
Like I sent a video message the other day...
...if she remarries Cholgyu, they can move out.
I'll only visit them once a month. I swore it.
I realized there's no daughter-in-law like Chaewon.
I painfully realized it.
So I bore shame to come and ask you a favor.
Let's hook up Chaewon with Cholgyu.
We don't want to do that.
I never thought of anyone else but Seyoon as my grandson-in-law.
You can't really mean that.
His real mom is Chaewon's stepmom.
Yet you would go ahead with their marriage?
I had my say. Excuse me.
What a boorish family.
Come in.
What brings you here?
Did I interrupt you when you're busy?
Not at all. Please have a seat.
Would you like to drink something?
No thanks.
I know it's tough for you.
It won't be easy but I hope you understand both mothers.
My wife thought you were dead.
Your mother raised you.
They're both your mothers.
You can't deny either of them.
Birth mother, adopted mother.
Both made you who you are.
I know it's hard for you but I hope you understand them both.
And regarding the marriage talk, let's take some time to think it over.
Father, I can never break up with Chaewon.
Let's talk about it later.
Mom! Mom!
Mom!
Stop calling me.
What did they say?
Unbelievable.
Why?
Chaewon's grandfather.
What about him?
He flatly refused my request, saying no one but Seyoon is Chaewon's mate.
A dotard.
That's strange. He favored me.
Wake up. No one in that family supports you.
Wake up and smell the coffee.
Are you telling me to give up Chaewon? No, I can't!
Whatever. I did the best I could. Now you take care of it.
There's big trouble.
What is it?
We got a call from the Health Office.
Harmful metals were detected in our noodles.
What are you talking about? How can metals be found in noodles?
I think it's because of mugwart, the main ingredient.
What are you saying?
When we purchased the mugwart, didn't we check the inspection certificate?
We did. But I think some cheap mugwart caused problems.
Call Juri to come to my office now! Hurry!
Honey!
Are you sick?
No. I felt drowsy so I was lying on the floor.
Ta-dah!
Wow! It's your album!
How does it look?
Awesome. You took a very good picture.
I'm photogenic.
You look better than your picture.
Let's celebrate the release of my album.
I bought pork hocks and rice wine.
What's wrong?
Maybe the pork hocks are spoiled. They smell bad.
They taste okay. They're not spoiled.
Maybe I feel bloated from lunch.
I can't eat. Help yourself.
Then try some rice wine.
It'll hit the spot.
I think the rice wine went bad, too.
It tastes okay.
Really? That's strange.
Were you bent on ruining me?
How could heavy metals be found in our noodles?
Something must be wrong. That can't be true!
They have the evidence!
Cholgyu. How did it go?
I think we should recall the entire batch of noodles.
What?
But we pumped money into it.
The news already spread online.
We might be slapped with a suspension of manufacturing or business.
What?
- Mom! - Mom.
Mom, Mom.
Are you okay?
Ms. Bhang was here?
She begged and pleaded with us to send you back to Cholgyu.
Do you want to rejoin him by any chance?
That's nonsense.
But Seyoon is...
I'd rather remain single than remarry Cholgyu.
Good night.
I met Seyoon this afternoon.
I was worried about him so I visited him in his office.
Thank you.
His eyes sank in. Guess it was hard on him.
Live with him if that's what you want.
Don't mind others.
Do as you like. I'll submit to your decision.
Why did you drink so much?
I couldn't sleep sober so I drank.
Seyoon.
I thought you were the warmest and nicest woman in the world.
I believed it.
But it turned out that you were a terrible woman.
You did such a terrible thing. How could you live with a calm face?
The thought of it makes me shudder in horror.
And I can't face you.
Forgive me.
Don't touch me.
I can walk by myself.
Hello?
Chaewon.
Yes.
Nothing changes between us.
We'll get married next month as planned.
Why don't you answer?
Whose son I am doesn't matter.
We love each other and that's important, isn't it?
You're drunk. Go to sleep and let's talk tomorrow.
Chaewon, you are mine.
From head to toe, you are mine.
I won't lose you to anybody. No.
Seyoon.
We've come this far. Break up?
I'd rather die than do that.
I'd rather die...
Seyoon...
Seyoon?
Are you sleeping?
We need to talk.
I gave it a lot of thought.
Let's forget about your marriage.
Father.
We found out the truth.
It's impossible for you two to get married now.
Honey.
If you push ahead with marrying her,
I'll take it to mean you don't regard me as your father.
How can you say that?
You stay out of it.
Whoever your real mom is, you are my son.
You've been my son and you always will be.
If you insist on marrying her...
...I'll take it to mean you'd disown me as your father.
Father.
And since your mom is to blame for that...
...I'll divorce your mom.
Father.
High rate of metals were detected in Green Noodles by Golden Dragon Foods.
Green Noodles are being recalled.
About 390 tons of Green Noodles have already been sold.
What's this I'm hearing? Golden Dragon Foods?
- Cholgyu's company? - I know.
We poured money into this business and even got private loans.
Recall all the products? What the heck should we do?
Why the heck did you do business with this improper company?
To save costs, I looked for a cheap supplier.
I'm sorry.
You get what you pay for.
Are you that thoughtless?
What is it?
Who the heck are you?
The court issued a search and seizure warrant for Golden Dragon Foods
on charges of the production, distribution and sales of harmful noodles
What?
We'll search your office.
Wait. Wait!
How dare you search my office?
What the heck is this?
The court issued a bench warrant for Ms. Bhang on charges of
the production, distribution and sales of noodles containing harmful metals.
You have the right to an attorney. You have the right to remain silent.
Anything you say may be used against you in the court of law.
What the heck are you doing?
- Mom! - Mom!
Mom! Wait!
I didn't do anything wrong. I can't believe this!
She is innocent. Our supplier conned us.
Take me instead of her. Don't put cuffs on her.
This is unbelievable. Call my attorney.
Please come with me.
Mom!
Hey. My mom is innocent. Let her go.
What the...!
Don't take pictures! Get away! Get away!
Mom...Mom...
