Thanks. You can go home now.
Yes, ma'am.
I knew you'd come.
How's your mother?
You came here to find out
if what I said is true, right?
Or
are you here to slap me?
for making a mess of both your families
and making your mother faint?
If that's not it,
are you here to kill me?
You...
When I first met you long ago,
I thought you were alright.
I know it was brief,
but it wasn't bad spending time with you.
When you returned
as Lasar's assistant manager,
back then,
I childishly believed that this was destiny.
I didn't know about your horrible plan.
Do you hate me horribly now?
Is that what you're here to tell me?
You and that doctor
plotted to deceive my family from the start
to pull off that awful scheme.
Calm down, Byeongguk.
Look on the bright side.
I'm not just a surrogate you paid off.
Aren't you glad I'm Jinwu's real mom?
It's bad enough that you're his surrogate,
but you even switched the eggs?
And now what?
Look on the bright side?
You're a criminal.
An insane criminal!
What do you think you're doing?
Are you crazy?
You...
You know nothing about being a mother.
From the start,
you used Jinwu for your revenge.
It disgusts me to think
that I loved you for a brief moment.
Love?
You loved me for a brief moment?
Don't lie to me.
You have your way with women
and you toss them aside when you're bored.
What love?
Well then...
To get revenge on me and Yeonhui,
you committed this heinous act?
What's wrong with you?
You're insane.
You're a monster!
I'll end all this...
I'll kill you...
With my own hands.
I'll kill you...
Die!
Yes, President Lee?
Die!
President Lee!
Die!
Get off. Get off me!
- Are you okay? / - Get off!
What should we do with him?
Call the police right now!
Get off me!
Just you wait.
I'll destroy you, I will!
Die!
I won.
It's all over now.
I, Lee Hwayeong, have done it. Me.
Get off me.
Get off!
Get off me, you bastard!
Get off!
How may we assist you?
This man attacked our CEO.
What?
He choked her.
He choked her?
Okay. Let's go down to the station together.
I'm not the one you want!
It's Lee Hwayeong, this company's CEO!
Don't worry.
She'll need to be questioned as well.
- Bring the victim. / - Okay.
Where is she?
Right this way.
Byeongguk choked Hwayeong out?
I'm sorry I didn't come by sooner.
You don't need to be sorry.
Donghyeon doesn't even live here anymore.
Hwayeong's little sister, Sora...
Is what Hwayeong said true?
Is she really Donghyeon's...
You came to ask that?
Why do you care?
Yeonhui doesn't even care.
Why do you care?
I simply can't believe Hwayeong.
Go. I have nothing to say to you.
Even though Yeonhui's parents
didn't want her to be with Donghyeon,
they're not cruel enough
to abandon her child like that.
They're not cruel enough?
What happened to Donghyeon?
After they killed him,
they didn't even show up to the funeral.
They went on living their happy lives.
If that's not cruel enough, then what is?
Back then...
It's all in the past now.
It pains me to think of Donghyeon, even now.
But
Yeonhui has suffered thoroughly,
just as much as you and Hwayeong did.
Please tell me.
Is Sora
really Yeonhui's daughter?
Please.
Sora and Yeonhui have no relations.
So quit being ridiculous
and don't ever come back again.
Something's not right.
Please tell me the truth.
Did Yeonhui's child really die?
Sir.
Yes. That's what the doctor said.
He said he couldn't save the child.
Which hospital was it?
I'm sure they'll have records.
I called them to find out
but the hospital closed down years ago
and the doctor moved abroad.
But it's the truth.
Sir, if by any chance,
you gave up the child for Yeonhui's future...
I told you, I didn't.
If my wife and the doctor hatched a scheme
and lied to me...
No, no.
My wife would've never done that.
She wasn't like that.
Our only choice is to have Yeonhui and Sora
take a paternity test.
That'll give us hard evidence.
I'm sure the doctor said
that the baby was dead.
Are you saying that you switched out
Ms. Baek's egg with your own
during the IVF process?
Yes.
Now do you get it?
Do you know why I kept saying
that Jinwu was my son?
No one here believed me.
No. This doesn't make any sense.
She can't do this to me.
Prepare to say goodbye to Jinwu forever.
Is this the OBGYN?
May I speak with Dr. Jin Myeongseok?
I'm sorry but he's on leave for a while
due to personal reasons.
On leave?
When will he be back?
We're not sure.
I'm sorry.
Hello?
Dr. Jin Myeongseok's Home
Doctor!
Dr. Jin Myeongseok!
Doctor!
Why are you being so loud this late?
I'm sorry. Let me ask you something.
Does Dr. Jin Myeongseok
of Hanguk Hospital live here?
I think he's a doctor, but I'm not sure.
Ma'am! Ma'am!
Choi Sangdu
Hello?
It's nothing urgent.
I just wanted to let you know
that Byeongguk was at the police station.
I don't want to know and I don't care.
I'm hanging up.
He tried to kill Hwayeong.
But if you don't want to know, goodbye.
Hello?
Listen, Mr. Jeong.
If you don't cooperate with us,
you'll be arrested
and you'll go straight to jail.
Hello?
Fine. Go ahead.
Do you admit to choking Lee Hwayeong?
Yes.
I strangled her.
I was trying to kill her.
I wanted to end it with my own hands.
Hey. This is a very serious situation.
This can be assault or it can be
attempted murder based on your testimony!
Jeong Byeongguk.
You're the CEO of YN Group, I see.
You should call your lawyer. Afterwards...
It doesn't matter. Just do it.
My life is over anyways.
Geez.
Listen, President Jeong. Stop this...
I'm tired of your suggestions!
Just do your job!
Interrogate me or put me in a cell!
Lee Hwayeong, I'm not done with you!
I'm going to kill you!
I'll kill you. You won't get away with this.
See that?
It's not assault. It's attempted murder.
He tried to kill me.
I won't let you get away with this.
I'll kill you.
I won't let you get away with this!
I'll kill you.
News sure travels fast.
You're here to see your ex-husband?
What happened?
I put Byeongguk in jail
for attempted murder.
What?
Why? Aren't you glad?
I got revenge on him for you.
You know better than I do
that Byeongguk would never do that.
Get off your high horse.
He choked me. He tried to kill me.
See the wound on my neck?
It was definitely attempted murder.
I won't take this lightly.
Lee Hwayeong.
What?
Are you going to act all sweet again?
Tell me to forgive him and free him?
You should thank me.
I know you're enjoying this.
I bet you feel fantastic.
He's Jinwu's father.
Regardless, he tried to kill me.
Just you wait.
I won't forgive him even if he begs.
What are you doing here?
What happened?
You strangled Hwayeong?
News sure travels fast.
Why didn't you just kill her off?
If you were bound to fail,
why did you even try, you fool?
I tried.
I tried to kill her.
I wanted to end it all.
Don't you feel the same way?
She switched out your egg with her own.
Our Jinwu
isn't your son. He's hers.
Doesn't that upset you?
I wanted it to.
But how does this affect you?
Jinwu's surrogate is now his real mother.
Shouldn't you be dancing for joy?
Why are you being like this?
You...
Get off your high horse.
You should be shaking with rage,
yet here you are visiting me in jail
to give me a lecture?
I came to rub it in your face.
I wanted to see you behind bars.
You used to love Hwayeong so much.
Now, you want to kill her on my behalf.
I'm moved to tears.
I'm sorry.
I'm really sorry.
No. Don't be sorry.
No matter what you do,
I have no intention of forgiving you.
Just know that
if I have any shred of sympathy left for you
it's only because
you're Jinwu's dad.
It's all over now.
No, it's not over.
It's just the beginning.
Please...
Forgive me.
I messed up!
Please forgive me.
Just this once.
Tell me you forgive me.
Please, tell me that you forgive me.
Yeonhui.
Yeonhui...
Jinsuk, Jinsuk.
Are you okay?
Are you still not well?
You should stay in bed.
I'm not sure how this happened.
I don't know what's going on.
Huija.
Do you think it's true?
Did Hwayeong really do
something like that behind my back?
I just don't understand it.
How could she do such a thing?
How could she switch out the eggs?
Please, Huija.
Once the paternity test results come in,
we'll find out the truth.
How could that doctor
deceive me like this?
They all fooled me.
Jinsuk.
When I hear Hwayeong's name,
it makes me tremble.
But you...
Are you really going to stay with Chef Bae?
Huija.
Jinsuk.
We're married now.
We're man and wife.
We even have a kid on the way.
I completely understand how you feel,
but Chef Bae isn't like Hwayeong.
And from now on,
I'd rather not discuss this again.
Is that what you really believe?
Yes.
I know he's Hwayeong's uncle,
but Chef Bae,
he's definitely not a bad person.
Then tell him
to pack his things and move in tomorrow.
Okay.
What?
What choice do I have?
I lost.
I can't live a day without you.
You can't live without him.
So now that it's come to this,
tell him to move in and live at our house.
I wish I could say
I never want to see you all again, but...
Huija! Huija, thank you so much!
Thank you!
I... We promise to take good care of you.
Thank you so much!
I won't be around for much longer.
Why must I suffer so much?
It's Yeonhui.
Hi, Yeonhui.
Aunt Jinsuk, it's me.
Hey, Yeonhui.
Are you having a tough time?
Byeongguk is in prison right now.
What? Prison?
Byeongguk.
We heard that Jeong Byeongguk
is being held here.
He's the detective in charge of that case.
Excuse me.
Jeong Byeongguk is being held here, right?
Yes. Hang on.
Jeong Byeongguk has visitors.
What?
Okay.
He says he doesn't want to see anyone.
W-What?
Who could that be?
Who is it?
It's me.
That sounds like Jinsuk.
What are you doing here at this hour?
How's your health?
We came to see Hwayeong.
Why?
Do you know what time it is?
You claim to have manners,
but don't you know this is too late for a visit?
Come in.
Hwayeong.
Mom, we have guests. Go get some tea.
At least pretend like you have manners.
Sit down, President Gwak.
Lee Hwayeong.
How could you do this to us?
How could you put Byeongguk in prison?
Calm down.
I didn't do it.
Byeongguk nearly killed me.
Why blame me? What did I do wrong?
Hwayeong!
He strangled me.
He tried to kill me.
That's why he went to jail.
Is that my fault?
What?
He strangled you?
Is that true?
Why would Byeongguk do that?
You're subhuman trash. Why would he care?
Subhuman trash?
Fine. You think we're vermin?
My whole family?
What? He choked you?
He tried to kill somebody?
How dare you come here after that?
Hwayeong did nothing wrong,
so get out! Get out now.
Okay. Let's say that's true.
Even so, you and Byeongguk
were practically married.
This isn't right.
If you don't press charges, Byeongguk
can be released immediately, so please...
No way. I'll never do that.
Why not?
What makes you so great?
President Gwak.
Who doubled Byeongguk's company revenue?
Who endured all the judgment
to give birth to your family's heir?
Who?
Did you say like mother like daughter?
Well, when it comes to Byeongguk,
like mother like son, no?
How dare you?
Don't you dare hit my daughter!
Would you like me to hit you back?
Fine. Let's do this. Bring it on!
Please...
Jeong Byeongguk
went to jail for attempted murder.
Let him suffer
so that he knows not to mess with me.
Don't be like that, Hwayeong.
I'm sure he wasn't really trying to kill you.
You don't know anything, so stay put.
He really tried to kill me.
You're mistaken.
You know Byeongguk wouldn't do that.
What can we do to change your mind?
How can we make you settle?
Beg.
You...
Mom.
She owes you and Ms. Ssangsun an apology.
Hwayeong, don't do this.
Byeongguk
is the father of your beloved Jinwu.
If you care about Jinwu's future at all,
can you really do this to Byeongguk?
Will you make Jinwu's father a convict?
Fine. I'll beg.
I'll get on my knees and beg.
President Gwak, apologize.
Hwayeong!
I said get down and beg!
If you want me to drop the charges
and get your heir, Byeongguk, out of jail,
then beg.
Huija.
Okay. I'll get on my knees and beg.
Since you had a child too,
you'll understand how I feel.
If it's for my son,
I could do this a dozen times.
I could grovel before you 100 times.
When I think of my dear son
sleeping on the cold prison floors...
Please...
Please release my son.
I'm sorry for all that I've done to you.
I humbly beg for forgiveness.
Apologize to my mom and Ms. Lee as well.
Do it!
I'm sorry.
Mom.
Jinwu.
Where are you going? It's late.
I have to go to my real mom.
Ms. Lee's my real mom now, right?
No, Jinwu. What are you saying?
Jinwu, don't go.
Jinwu.
Mom, wake up.
Wake up, mom.
Jinwu. My darling Jinwu.
Jinwu.
Did you have a bad dream?
Yeah.
Don't be afraid, mom.
I'll protect you.
I'm right here, so don't be afraid.
Okay.
My darling son.
What's with the bag?
Where are you going?
I'm going to live with Jinsuk, Chuja.
I'm moving into her place.
What?
What is that supposed to mean?
Why would you move into their house?
Try to understand. We're married now.
She's pregnant. I need to be there for her.
Are you kidding me right now?
You're lucky I didn't kick you out
when you brought your wife here.
And now you're moving into her place?
Please just stop.
I'm going to be a father soon.
And I realized yesterday that
Jinsuk really needs me right now.
What is marriage about?
It's about being there when times get tough.
And with the trial and all,
Jinsuk's been completely stressed out.
You jerk! Even so...
You know our families aren't on good terms!
Whose side are you on exactly?
You ignore your niece for that manager?
Huh? Is that it?
I guess these days when men
get married, their wives steal them away.
Sora.
When you get married,
don't ever have a son.
Hwayeong.
I understand if this is upsetting, but...
It's fine.
If that's what you want, go right ahead.
Later, when I bring Jinwu back,
it'd be nice if we weren't on hostile terms.
I'll have to get alimony from them, too.
Also, Jinwu will inherit all their wealth.
Jeong Byeongguk may
beg me for forgiveness.
He might even beg me to take him back.
I'm Jinwu's mom, after all.
Huija doesn't like me all that much,
but because of Jinsuk...
Did you just call her by her first-name?
She's our sworn enemy!
I can't believe you're that friendly with her!
You traitor! Get out!
Don't ever step foot in this house again.
You and I are no longer siblings!
You jerk!
That bastard...
Chansik! Call and visit every now and again.
Okay?
Uncle Chansik!
Sora.
Are you really leaving?
I'll come by often.
And if you ever miss me,
you can always come by the restaurant.
Don't cry.
Sora.
Always remember that you're my most
precious niece.
Right?
Right.
