My Secret Hotel
Final Episode 16
Nam Sang Hyo...
What do I do now?
Sang Hyo...
Without you...
how can I go on?
Nam Sang Hyo...
Who are you...
crying over right now?
Last Episode
Hiding away when you're scared...
Why are you here?
Huh?
The murderer has been caught.
I thought it will be okay now.
Jeez, you have a poor attitude.
Do that one more time, or else. I'll have you fired.
You say that all the time.
Remove these things, too.
- Okay. - What the heck?
Are you a shaman?
Hi, Managing Director.
Are you here to see Manager Nam?
No.
Manager Nam isn't here yet.
Do you know if she's sick?
Well, she's not answering her phone.
Don't worry too much.
I'm sure her husband will take care of her.
Yeah, right.
Get to work.
I said I'd wait for you.
I asked you not to forget about me waiting for you.
I'm sorry for saying this to you first.
No, Managing Director.
Don't feel bad toward me.
Everything's...
...my fault.
At times like this,
I'm glad Goo Hae Young is with you, Sang Hyo.
Nam Sang Hyo...
You're at it again.
Yes.
I want to sell it as soon as possible.
Yes.
I'll leave the country as soon as my place is sold.
Yes.
Please take care of it.
Hello.
This is the Secret Hotel.
Manager Nam didn't come in to work.
Excuse me?
Especially with what happened few days ago...
I was wondering if she's sick.
Really?
I can't find out right now.
If you talk to her, please call me...
Never mind.
I'm sure she'll be there soon.
Very carefully...
Why aren't you here yet?
There's a client meeting at 6pm.
We still have to prepare our presentation.
I'll be there.
Of course.
But...
did you make up with Sang Hyo?
I'm almost there. I'll talk to you when I get there.
Is he saying they made up or not?
Anyway, you guys...
...pray.
If Sang Hyo moved out,
we're finished.
Until Hae Young seems okay,
all the projects you worked on...
...hide them well.
Why are we hiding our projects?
Come to think about it...
that Samantha was...
...Sang Hyo.
Samantha?
When we were in the States,
Hae Young...
disappeared...
for about three months.
Fortunately...
Hae Young did come back.
Then he threw himself into work.
He finished a six month project...
in a month or two.
And then again...
he disappeared.
But...
he returned completely...
...defeated.
Hae Young! What's going on? Huh?
Hey!
Are you crazy?
Hey, I have to submit this draft by tomorrow.
I don't care.
Hey, this...
Do you know how hard I worked on this over the last few months?
I don't need any of this.
Goo Hae Young.
What's wrong?
Why did you ask me to come back?
Why didn't you leave me alone?
It's all over.
It's over.
And for a year...
he roamed around all over the US.
Going through every hotels he came across,
he looked for a woman named Samantha.
He couldn't find her in the end.
For another year...
he was wasted.
If it wasn't for his father,
I'm sure...
he'd still be like that.
That's amazing.
How could he put everything on the line for one woman?
It's possible because it's someone like his wife.
It's possible because it's Goo Hae Young.
Because it's Goo Hae Young.
When he falls in love...
he doesn't think about anything else.
In front of love,
he only sees love.
That's who he is.
Sang Hyo.
Sang Hyo, are you in there?
Nam Sang Hyo!
Sang Hyo!
I haven't...
talked to Sung Gyum about anything yet.
I can't face him.
Sung Gyum...
won't forgive me.
He won't...
...even look me in the eyes.
Time will...
...heal.
You put...
...everything in raising him.
In the end...
he can't ignore you.
Aren't you ashamed?
Su... Sung Gyum.
Whether it's you or the General Manager,
one of you definitely killed my father.
That remains to be true even after thirty years.
But how can you look at each other...
...with eyes full of consolation?
Now that I know everything,
are you trying to fulfill your long lost love?
That's not it, Sung Gyum.
Please go to the US immediately.
Immediately.
Managing Director Jo.
She's your mother who raised you despite the obstacles.
If you don't want to lose such a precious son,
please leave now.
How could he...
Did Cha Dong Min really do all that for Lee Moo Yang?
Cha Dong Min confessed to everything.
I'm still not convinced.
Forget it. It's over. Case closed.
The case is closed. Let's wrap it up and forget about it.
It still doesn't feel like it's over.
I gave her medication, so her fever should come down.
It could've been bad.
Thank you.
Hi, Shi Chan.
Dude...
why don't you answer the phone? Why aren't you here?
Why aren't you here?
They've been waiting for two hours now.
Sorry, I can't make it.
Hey, do you know how much this contract is worth?
Sorry.
Goo Hae Young.
If it's not about me...
what's torturing you this badly?
Even if...
the General Manager is Sang Hyo's father,
I can't give up now.
To the end, I'll ask the General Manager...
about Hwang Dong Bae and Heo Young Mi.
I'll find out if he's responsible for those two deaths.
I'm sorry, Sang Hyo.
Sang Hyo, are you okay?
How are you feeling?
Why are you here...
Don't get up. Stay put.
I'm okay.
How come you're here?
I got a call yesterday.
You didn't show up for work.
Were you here all night?
I'm okay now, so you can go.
You're sick.
How can I leave you here like this?
I don't want to go.
You being here...
makes me feel more uncomfortable.
But still...
I can't leave you alone.
I'm fine now.
I have to go to work anyway.
I'll take you then.
I'm worried you'll faint on your way. I can't let you go alone.
I'm okay.
I can't go alone.
Alright then.
I'll call Jo Sung Gyum for you.
Go with him.
Don't call him.
You can't go alone.
Ugh...
I told you not to call him.
He's...
struggling because of the hotel at the moment.
Okay, fine.
Then you take me to work.
When you're with me,
I feel like you're genuine.
So, I want to trust you again, but...
when I turn to look at you again,
why does it seem like you're lying?
I'll get going.
Go now.
Will you be okay by yourself?
Yeah.
Be careful going home.
Hae Young.
Don't...
come looking for me.
Even if I'm sick...
or worried about me...
don't come looking for me.
It's easy for you to come and go, but...
it's really hard for me.
You think I came back to you so easily?
No, not even once.
It was never easy.
It's not that it's easy to come to you, but...
leaving you is...
...so hard to do.
Because I've lost you before.
Because I know what it's like to be without you.
For me to return to you...
it's really hard.
But...
whenever you shake me up...
whenever you hold onto me...
it's harder for me to go with that flow.
So, let's...
be like strangers.
You do your thing and...
I'll do mine.
Let's live like that.
I really want to break up with you for good.
Is that really...
what you want?
Yeah.
For me to leave you completely...
is that what you want?
Yeah.
Alright.
If that's what you want...
I'll do that.
Sang Hyo.
I won't...
come back again.
Until you want me to.
Managing Director asked me to take you to the airport.
How about Sung Gyum...
Well...
He has a meeting he can't miss.
I see.
Can you...
...stay?
What?
Leave.
What's going on?
It's according to the report you received.
For the last thirty years,
I protected your mother by covering up the secret.
But now...
I'll protect your mother in a different way.
Do you think you're making sense?
Even if my father's death was caused by my mother,
you ordered Heo Young Mi and Hwang Dong Bae's deaths.
Do you think I'll stay silent about that?
I didn't...
...do that.
If you're against it,
your mother won't accept me.
But...
it's this old man's last wish.
Please give us your permission.
If...
you hate seeing me,
I'll leave this place that I devoted...
...the last thirty years to.
No.
I won't have it.
I decided to give up on my love...
in order to punish you.
I can't let you do that.
Will you leave...
...with that woman?
Assistant Manager Yang.
This has nothing to do with you.
Do you really think so?
It has nothing to do with me?
- For you... - Stop...
No...
All I did was wait for you for twenty years to take a look at me.
And now...
I have...
...cancer.
I don't have much time left.
I'm fine even if it's a short time.
Please...
let me just be...
...by your side.
I can't do that.
Don't you even feel sorry for me?
For you...
For all of you...
Did you think I'd be grateful?
For Dong Min's sake...
you can't say this to me.
Why?
What? What now?
Shi Chan.
You know I like you, right?
Hey...
what's wrong with you now?
Giving me the creeps.
After this project...
I'll leave for the US.
What?
I can't forget her completely here.
What's that supposed to mean?
I think that's what Sang Hyo wants from me.
For me to leave her for good.
Hey, Goo Hae Young!
I'll do that for her.
It will put her in a difficult position if people find out we're separated.
Just come up with an excuse and say we're apart for work.
When you go to the States...
are you going to destroy yourself and become an alcoholic like before?
No, I won't live that way again.
Now...
I can't do that.
Shi Chan.
Go and prep our employees.
I'll wrap up the current project before I leave.
Whoever you're with...
Whatever you do...
I don't care.
But...
don't drink 'til...
you can't walk straight.
Okay.
I won't do that anymore.
Gi Chul.
It's nice to see you work so hard.
Do your best in the future as well.
Excuse me?
Sung Min, since you got this job...
...do it well.
Okay.
Why do you say that all of a sudden? As if you're going somewhere far.
It must look strange to you.
Manager Nam.
Resignation Letter
Assistant Manager Yang.
Please accept it.
No, I won't.
Without you, I can't...
You'll be fine alone.
What's wrong?
Why all of a sudden?
I think it's time for me to leave.
This hotel...
Him...
You didn't know I'm in love with...
...the General Manager, right?
As soon as I finished high school,
I came to work at this hotel and struggled.
He was always encouraging me by my side.
I know he wasn't like that with me alone.
No...
because he wasn't like that only with me,
I liked him even more.
This man...
seems like a really wonderful person.
But...
I'll stop now.
But you don't need to submit your resignation over this.
Manager Nam.
No, since I quit...
Nam Sang Hyo.
Don't...
hesitate between...
Goo Hae Young and Managing Director Jo.
Just...
take a look at where your heart is.
Don't hesitate and go.
Even if you make a wrong choice...
Even if it ends in pain...
It doesn't matter.
The time that's given to you...
don't waste it hesitating like me.
Spend it loving someone.
The time that you have...
It may not be...
...as long as you think you do.
If according to Cha Dong Min's confession...
he killed Hwang Dong Bae and Heo Young Mi,
where is that necklace?
He said he lost it.
You think he'd lose a necklace he got after killing two people?
It doesn't make sense.
Lee Moo Yang...
he's a big enough man to take care of someone who killed his own nephew.
The fact that someone like him would kill people using Cha Dong Min...
Cha Dong Min lived with guilt over killing a classmate by accident.
Would he have killed for Lee to repay him for his goodness?
Cha Dong Min is definitely hiding something.
Seeing you like this...
it takes me back to the time when I first met you...
when I came here with the General Manager.
Were you eighteen then?
Yesterday...
I confessed my love to the General Manager.
But...
he refused me in one breath.
Thanks, Cha Dong Min...
...for loving me.
I won't say I'm sorry.
Your heart...
I'll take it with me.
Assistant Manager Yang.
Noona means older sister or older female from a male perspective.
Noona.
Kyung Hee noona!
Noona!
No, noona!
Noona!
If Cha Dong Min is indeed hiding something,
it must be love.
Love?
Why else would a man falsely confess being a killer?
It must be love he wants to protect.
Love...
Let's go find the necklace.
Where?
Yang Kyung Hee.
Yang Kyung Hee, are you inside?
It's the police.
Wait.
Team Leader.
Yang Kyung Hee?
Yes.
She confessed everything in a suicide note.
She said she was in a one-sided love with the General Manager.
She came back to the hotel on the day she was diagnosed with cancer.
She witnessed...
Hwang Dong Bae threatening Lee Moo Yang.
When she thought of him being...
threatened for thirty years,
she got angry all of a sudden.
She stabbed Hwang Dong Bae.
But she ran away from the scene and...
she found out about his death...
...at Goo Hae Young's wedding.
After Hwang Dong Bae died...
she realized...
Heo Young Mi had the necklace.
And from Heo Young Mi...
she tried to get that necklace back and inadvertently...
Then Cha Dong Min...
He saw what happened from the Security Office and ran over.
He erased the recording and...
in Yang Kyung Hee's place...
he took care of the rest.
So, you're saying all this happened because of love.
In place of my mother...
the General Manager tried to cover up the truth.
In place of the General Manager...
Yang Kyung Hee tried to get the necklace back.
For Yang Kyung Hee...
Cha Dong Min confessed to everything...
...as his doing.
In the end, everyone...
did it in the name of love.
Her last request is not to reveal what she did...
to the hotel employees.
I don't know if that secret can be kept.
Oh...
The necklace...
I'll give it back to you.
How could...
Assistant Manager Yang do that?
She should be in the hospital if she was ill.
How did she manage to work in that condition?
I had no idea she was gravely ill.
She loved...
the hotel that much.
I came by to give you something.
I plan to...
...leave this hotel.
Managing Director Jo.
I'm not sure if I can bare to see you two together.
If one of us should stay,
it should be you...
who protected this hotel
and my mother for thirty years.
My mother...
please take good care of her.
When I thought the General Manager...
was the one who killed my father...
Even after knowing...
he loves my mother...
Sang Hyo and I...
...can't be together.
I...
can't forgive that girl's father.
If you're not her father,
who is Sang Hyo's father?
Is it the dead Assistant Manager Hwang?
It's an evil destiny that's going on for thirty years.
There's no way...
your mother will accept Manager Nam.
I...
can't give up on her for that reason.
I submitted my letter of resignation.
Don't worry too much.
Lots of hotels want me.
I just...
want to take a break.
I'll take it easy for a few days and...
will go back to the US.
Did you examine your heart...
at Goo Hae Young's house?
It must not be an answer I want to hear.
Then...
if I hold onto you...
will you waver for me?
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, Managing Director.
You don't have to be sorry.
I'm the one who's hanging onto you knowing how you feel.
You know...
I realized it in a moment.
You tried to be with me and...
I tried so hard to pull you toward me.
But the fact that we didn't make progress is
because your heart was...
already with Goo Hae Young.
I hung onto you knowing that fact.
I shouldn't be so greedy.
That's how much...
I loved you, Sang Hyo.
It wasn't Goo Hae Young, but...
it was me who tried to change your heart.
Don't be sorry.
Sang Hyo.
By chance...
if you ever need me...
if you ask me to stay because you need me...
only then...
I'll take you back.
I'll get going first.
Good-bye, Sang Hyo.
Okay then...
I'll see you on your wedding day.
Please take care.
Thank you.
Soo Ah.
What brings you here?
I came to see you, unni.
By chance...
are you getting married?
No.
I just wanted to talk to you.
I felt uneasy keeping this to myself.
Hae Young oppa...
He's going back to the States.
Hae Young oppa...
He's going back to the States.
He's already set to work in New York.
He doesn't know for how long.
Why are you...
telling me this?
We're done and over with.
That's why I'm here.
It looks like you two are finished.
Because it's over with you,
he must be leaving.
I don't think he'll come back.
When I pestered him to marry me and...
he said yes,
he told me this.
Would it be okay if he never loved me?
In his heart...
there's only one woman.
He won't be able to love me ever.
He loved once in his life.
He only loved one woman.
He said he married her and...
even after they split,
he only loves her.
You must be mistaken.
Please don't tell me stuff like that, Soo Ah.
Oppa...
went back to Las Vegas to look for you.
When he went back,
you were already gone.
Your landlord came by and said...
you had left.
You left with another man.
That's what she told him.
I believe oppa.
You don't believe him?
There's no way...
There's no way that happened.
That sounds like the truth.
Ah...
I came by to let you know the case is closed.
I saw a picture of you from seven years ago inside Goo Hae Young's wallet.
I told him it's not good for a new groom to carry around another woman's picture.
I have...
to go somewhere.
Unni.
She needs time to think things through.
Once in your life...
he loved a woman.
He said he married her and...
even after they split,
he only loves her.
Take a look at where your heart is.
Don't hesitate and go.
Even if you make a wrong choice...
Even if it ends in pain...
It doesn't matter.
The time that's given to you...
don't waste it hesitating like me.
Spend it loving someone.
The time that you have...
It may not be...
...as long as you think you do.
But...
I'm still scared.
Sang Hyo.
Be well.
Sang Hyo.
Are we really...
...over?
Excuse me.
A woman is here to see you.
Hey, hey!
Hey!
Hey, what's going on?
Don't go.
Don't go, Hae Young.
Why...
Why did you drink so much?
Huh?
I don't know...
Don't go, okay?
Don't leave me behind.
Hey, Jung Eun.
It's late.
Go home, okay?
If I go home...
will you stay in Korea?
What's with that expression?
Does it shock you that I'm here?
How did you know to come here?
There's nothing I don't know about you.
Jo Sung Gyum is inside the palm of my hand.
Your mother sent me here.
She said you'd be here.
Let's go.
You took a long enough break.
Your mother is worried.
Go ahead. I don't want to go back yet.
C'mon, follow me.
Uh?
It's not working.
Fine.
Let's stay here then.
Sit.
You want to stay here.
Oppa...
went back to...
Las Vegas to look for you.
When he went back,
you were already gone.
I saw a picture of you from seven years ago inside Goo Hae Young's wallet.
The time that's given to you...
don't waste it hesitating like me.
Spend it loving someone.
The time that you have...
It may not be...
...as long as you think you do.
What's this?
Why are you here again?
Hae Young is in the shower.
Do you want to wait inside?
Joo Jung Eun.
Did you see my dress shirt I left out?
I need to go to Hae Young.
Are you coming in or not?
Joo Jung Eun!
My dress shirt.
No...
It's fine.
Hey, you...
What?
Take that off.
Here?
Forget it, just take it.
I'll get it.
What? Get dressed.
I'll get it.
Sang Hyo.
Goo Hae Young.
Let me ask you one thing.
Seven years ago or now...
why is that woman wearing your shirt inside your house?
What...
What are you...
...talking about?
I...
had gone to New York.
To find you...
I had quit my job at the hotel and went to New York.
But...
even then and now...
why is that woman wearing your shirt inside your house?
Joo Jung Eun.
What is she talking about?
Huh?
Hae Young.
Well...
Nam Sang Hyo...
That's why...
I asked you to come inside.
Hey, Joo Jung Eun.
Joo Jung Eun!
You came?
Did you...
...come?
Did you really...
...come to me?
Sang Hyo.
Let's go now.
It's chilly.
I can stay longer.
Since I'm here anyway,
let's forget about Nam Sang Hyo.
Hurry.
It's okay.
Let's go inside.
Won't you hold my hand?
I'll make it clear.
I'm holding on only because you asked me to.
Yeo Eun Joo.
Let's go.
I found this.
It's mine.
How can you say it's yours when I found it on the ground?
That's not what I mean...
It's really mine.
I feel good about it.
As if my love will be fulfilled.
This stone, Eun Joo...
It's best to leave it where you found it.
Why?
I like it.
No, it's just that...
You should leave it.
Let's hurry up and go.
Your mother must be waiting for you.
Sang Hyo.
I'm really sorry.
No...
I'm the one who's sorry.
I had no idea.
For calling your feelings light.
I was the one who took it so lightly.
I heard...
you have to leave for New York.
I'll go with you if you want me to.
I'll wait for you if you ask me to wait.
Visitors registration. Deceased - Yang Kyung Hee. Visitor - Nam Sang Hyo.
Yang Kyung Hee
Assistant Manager Yang.
No...
...unni.
I'm sorry I couldn't visit you more often.
But...
you know how much I miss you.
When I was struggling,
I really relied on you a lot.
It might...
...take some time.
It's okay.
I'll wait for you.
Can you...
really wait for me?
Yeah.
Okay.
Then...
I'm leaving.
You're not...
asking me to go with you.
Because I know...
how much the hotel means to you.
I'll wait for you, Goo Hae Young.
This time...
until you return.
I'll wait until you return.
Nam Sang Hyo.
Sang Hyo.
Didn't you go?
I told you.
I'm not going...
anywhere without you.
People are staring.
Who cares?
One year later
Nam Sang Hyo.
Goo Hae Young.
Yeo Eun Joo.
Did you...
come back after studying abroad?
Yeah.
It worked out that way.
But you two...
are you still together?
Jeez...
Of course.
We won't split again.
You two didn't forget who married you off, right?
Don't stand around like that. Sit down.
Hey...
Are you getting married?
Why wouldn't I?
What kind of man is he?
Who?
Here he comes.
Look, look. I knew this would happen.
Managing Director.
Long time no see.
Congratulations on your upcoming wedding.
Wedding?
I never said right this minute.
Wait and see.
He's halfway there.
- Jo Sung Gyum. - Yes.
I missed you.
Whatever...
