Two Mothers
Why aren't they coming down?
My grandson won't be able to sleep.
Mom, is dinner ready?
Tell them to come for dinner.
They're being an imposition.
This isn't some public display.
Can't they just be patient?
Yeonhui's mother and father
are probably eager to see their grandson.
You should try to understand.
And who should you be thankful to?
Don't forget that I made this all happen.
Okay, okay.
He's so cute.
Yeonhui.
He looks exactly like you as a baby.
Mother-in-law thinks he looks like Byeongguk.
No, he looks exactly like you.
Isn't that right, honey?
Yes, he looks exactly like Yeonhui.
No, I think he looks like me.
Dinner's ready. We should go eat.
Yes, mom. Give Jinwu to me.
Dad, I'm hungry.
- Okay. - Let's go downstairs.
Yeonhui.
I'm happy.
You look happier than you've ever been.
Yes, dad.
Do you still hate me?
Okay.
Thank you.
My baby, Jinwu.
You make me so happy.
But...
I'm not sure if I deserve to be happy.
Go inside. You didn't have to come out.
Father, thank you.
Yes, you're a dad now...
Dad, that's all you talked about during dinner.
Okay then. We're leaving.
Okay.
Bye, dad.
Thank you, Baek Yeonhui.
Thank you. You're sweet.
Let's go inside.
Yes, savor your joy.
I'm going to take that joy away from you.
You think it's your baby?
No, it's mine!
I'm going to get my baby back.
You think the baby belongs to you?
No, it's my baby.
6 years later
Jinwu, come here.
I told you to stay put, not run around.
No.
If you keep this up, you'll be in trouble.
Let him be. He's too young to know better.
You can run around all you want.
But don't go far away.
Make sure you stay close to us.
Why is Yumi so late?
Everyone else came out already.
I keep telling her to get married,
but she decided to study for years instead.
She's a pain in my backside.
But she studied so hard for all those years.
Do you know how much I spent on her studies?
She's like a money vacuum.
Jinwu?
Why? Is Jinwu gone?
Yes.
Jinwu!
Where did he go?
Jinwu?
Grace Lee
Are you Grace Lee,
New York's assistant manager?
Yes, that's right.
YM sent me. Please follow me.
What's this? Why isn't anyone here?
Mom?
Goodness! Why didn't you come out sooner?
Why'd you hit me?
We're in a crisis!
Jinwu's missing.
- What? - Mother.
You didn't find him?
I can't find him anywhere.
What if someone took Jinwu?
How could you assume such a terrible thing?
Let's look for him carefully.
You go this way, I'll go that way.
Mom, watch my stuff.
We can't lose Jinwu.
Jinwu, my baby.
Jeong Jinwu!
Hey, kid.
Don't cry.
Is this yours?
Oh, it's broken.
Don't cry.
Where's your mom?
Did you lose your mommy?
Mom.
Mom!
Shush.
Handsome boys don't cry.
Get up.
Oh, I remember.
I have a doll that's kind of like this one.
If you promise not to cry, I'll give it to you.
And let's look for your mom together, okay?
Ta-da.
What's your name?
Jeong Jinwu.
How old are you?
I'm six.
Jinwu, you're so smart.
And you speak very well.
Jinwu, shall we look for
your mom together?
- Please wait just a moment. - Yes.
Jinwu!
Jinwu, do you remember me?
I'm your aunt.
Auntie!
That's right.
Where were you?
We were looking all over for you.
He seemed lost
so I was about to ask the staff for help.
Thank you.
Don't get lost next time, okay?
Your mom will worry about you.
Okay.
But what's her name?
I didn't name her yet.
Do you want to name her?
Since she's pretty like my mom,
I'll name her "mommy doll."
Your mom must be very pretty.
Mommy's doll sounds nice.
Well then, Jinwu. Goodbye.
- Bye. - Take care.
Bye.
Let's go.
My baby is probably about that age now.
Jinwu.
Jinwu, where were you?
Are you okay?
If you wander off again,
daddy is going to scold you.
Got it?
Okay then.
Okay. See you later, Jinwu.
Yes?
What about Grace Lee?
I just escorted her to the hotel.
She didn't say much?
Did you tell her about the meeting tomorrow?
Yes, she's busy in the morning
so she'll be here in the afternoon.
Really? Did she seem prickly to you?
No, not really.
She was friendly and kind.
That's a relief.
Please show me my baby.
Bring my baby here!
Can't you show me his face once?
You didn't give birth to that baby.
My daughter-in-law did.
Hello?
Officer Park Yongun?
I was the one who called you from the States.
My name is Lee Hwayeong.
As you requested,
I did go through the case again.
But there was nothing unusual.
Please look through it one more time.
I'm sure there's something you missed.
I'm sorry, officer, for being a nuisance.
It's an old case
and the statute of limitations has run out.
Why do you insist on digging up this case?
Is it because you don't trust the police?
Or is there another reason?
Of course, I understand that you think
you're a victim.
This isn't the first time
I've come across a case like this.
But still,
I'm sure you know
that this case is already closed.
Isn't the person who caused the accident
the real perpetrator?
I know. The famous...
What was his name?
President Baek Cheol.
Your brother crossed the central lane
and crashed into the oncoming car.
Mr. Baek Cheol didn't follow the motorcycle.
Your brother chased after his vehicle.
Then he crossed the central lane.
So how is that Mr. Baek's fault?
No.
If Mr. Baek stopped deliberately...
Then he would've hit Mr. Baek's car.
But that's not what happened.
And even if he had crashed into him,
the driver in the rear would be responsible.
In that case, your brother would actually
be the perpetrator.
To avoid the halting car,
he could've crossed the central lane.
And if he crashed into the oncoming car...
We're all police officers here.
Don't you think we already looked into that?
Crossing the central lane
that's completely Lee Donghyeon's fault.
Believe me.
No, no, no!
Don't do it!
No, don't do it.
I'm sorry.
But can I see the photo one more time?
Okay then.
It's a miracle that we still have this.
We normally throw out old files.
Officer Park, we're on call.
Yes, I'm going.
All homicide case files
are sent to the prosecutors' office.
If you wish to pursue this case
you can file for a re-investigation.
Baek Yeonhui.
Your father, Baek Cheol.
You two essentially murdered my brother.
Just wait. Now it's my turn.
Oh my...
Michael, why are you serving it yourself?
They're VIPs.
I should serve it myself and explain the dishes.
Michael, you're so kind.
Oh my goodness...
How is he so good-looking?
Who is, Ms. Lee?
Sunnam.
Mind your own business and get moving.
Did you clean the tables?
Ms. Lee,
could you please address me properly?
What's wrong with calling you Sunnam?
I'm Jessica.
Jessica, my foot.
Why would I call you "Jessica"
when your name is Sunnam?
Choose a name that fits your image.
Jessica? Ha!
It's way better than "Miranda Kerr."
Kerr? Miranda Kerr?
I bet you wish you were that tall.
Kerr, Kerr.
I swear, one day I'm just going to...
Here's the steak you ordered.
Wow, it looks delicious.
I selected a dry-aged cut
and cooked it rare to give it that special flavor.
I used the sous-vide technique
to cook this steak medium-rare.
When you try it, you'll taste the difference.
He's our new chef.
My name's Michael.
Michael?
Thank you, now get back to work.
Understood.
Michael?
Jinsuk, is his name really Michael?
Come on, Huija.
Everyone is into English names these days.
It's the global age.
Gosh.
It's delicious, auntie.
Even the pasta
was better than what I had in Italy.
This is good too, and that's tasty as well.
What's wrong with you?
Why are you making such a fuss over food?
I don't understand young folks these days.
And the steak.
Tell him to cook it fully.
Should I ask him to cook it well-done?
Just eat it, mom. Don't be old-fashioned.
I'm not old-fashioned. It's just what I like.
Okay, sorry.
Jinwu, stop fooling around and eat.
Eat like a gentleman.
Let him be. Let him eat while he plays.
Why are you always scolding him?
He's so precious.
- Byeongguk is here. - Jeong Jinwu!
Dad!
Dad, look at this.
A lady gave this to me at the airport.
It's a mommy doll.
Mommy doll?
Because the doll is pretty like his mom,
that's what he's calling it.
Come and eat. I'm sure you're hungry.
Okay.
It's delicious.
It's amazing, isn't it?
It's great.
Do you know how your uncle got a job
as a cook at that famous restaurant?
Because he's like me and
he's amazing at cooking.
Not a cook, a chef.
That's what they're called these days.
It's all the same.
Who is it?
Hwayeong?
Hwayeong, let me see your face.
It's been ages.
When did you get here? You should've called.
I would've gone to the airport.
Come and sit down.
Sora, come sit with me.
What about uncle?
Oh.
Chansik got a job.
He's a cook at a famous restaurant.
Not a cook, a chef.
Yes, a chef.
Remember the restaurant you worked for?
That's where he is.
What?
Why there, of all places?
Why not?
It's such a famous place.
You haven't had dinner yet, have you?
I just cooked some bean paste soup.
Sit tight for a sec.
Hwayeong, you've gotten so pretty.
Do you have a boyfriend?
I have one.
Don't act like we're sisters.
And why do you already have a boyfriend?
You should be focusing on your studies.
Why are you yelling at her?
Sora is just glad to see you.
Raise her properly.
How can she already have a boyfriend?
Kids these days are all like that.
Just let her be.
Do you have to be so mean?
Hey, no matter how
big of a success you became in America,
she's still your family and your sister.
Mom, don't get upset at her.
It was my mistake.
You should go to class.
Go, quickly.
I'll be home later.
Hwayeong, see you later.
What's wrong with you?
It's been 6 years since you've seen her.
Why are you being so mean?
What did Sora ever do to you?
Forget it. I'm sorry.
Okay.
Things must've been tough.
Whenever I thought of you,
I felt so sorry.
Try the bean paste soup.
You always said my soup was the best.
I have to get going.
Where are you going?
I'll call you.
Wait.
This is a gift for you.
Hwayeong, Hwayeong.
Hwayeong, talk to me first.
Hwayeong.
Oh, that temper of hers.
It just never seems to change.
It's been years and she's still the same.
Oh, my life is so pitiful.
- Excuse me. - Okay.
What would you like to drink?
A Bloody Mary, please.
Bloody Marry?
I'm sorry, but we don't...
Then how about a Red Eye?
Yes, thank you.
You must like red cocktails.
Bloody Mary.
It's got a sharp taste.
Isn't that where it gets its charm from?
The red blood from the queen of England.
Like the name of an epic revenge story.
Revenge.
With your slender frame
that word doesn't suit you.
It's an honor to meet someone so famous.
Do you know who I am?
I saw your magazine interview.
You're renowned for your sophistication,
the godfather of Korean fashion.
You're much more attractive in person.
I'm old enough to be your father.
It's nice to get such a compliment
from a gorgeous girl like you.
This cocktail's on me.
See you next time.
We'll be meeting again.
Even though we've worked hard
to revamp our restaurant.
I think our employees still need to change.
Ms. Lee.
Yes, ma'am?
What kind of complaint did we receive today?
The pasta sauce was a bit salty.
Even though Chef Michael
was the one who cooked it.
Michael.
Yes, ma'am?
I think I talked to you
about the sauce three days ago.
Yes, that is correct.
So why did we get the same complaint?
I don't know. I'm sure I fixed it.
If you fixed it,
how did we get the same complaint?
I can't fix the customer's bad taste...
Michael!
Yes, ma'am?
Remember that this is the second time
and check the recipe again.
That's all.
Cheese.
Whiskey.
Dismissed.
Chansik?
Did that hurt your feelings?
Ms. Jeong is too harsh.
After you started working here,
a lot of folks say our food's gotten better.
Look, Miranda Kerr.
Yes?
My name's Michael.
Call me Michael.
Michael.
Yes, Chansik. I mean, Michael.
Hello?
Yes, this is Miranda Kerr.
I'm sorry.
But isn't this Lee Gonghui's phone?
Yes, that's correct. May I ask who's calling?
Happy, happy. Very happy.
This is unexpected. You've changed so much.
It's amazing and surprising.
You're full of surprises, Lee Hwayeong.
In any case, congratulations.
Congratulations!
Thanks.
You have money and an education now.
Your company awarded you too.
Your face and body have gotten even hotter.
All you need to do now
is to meet a prince and get married.
Gonghui, are those people doing well?
Those people? Who?
Since they're well off,
I'm sure they're doing fine.
Have you seen the baby?
Has he been to the restaurant?
Who does he take after? Does he look smart?
What's his name?
Lee Hwayeong, forget about it.
What's he got to do with you?
If you were in my shoes,
wouldn't you be curious?
Would you be able to forget him forever?
He's not your baby. Forget him.
You're right. I should forget.
How could I forget him?
I birthed him with my blood, sweat and tears.
He's cute.
He's a fine young boy.
But from now on,
don't ask me about him anymore.
Got it?
You should've stayed in New York.
Why'd you come back?
In any case, forget the past
and just focus on being happy.
Got it, Hwayeong?
Happy?
Yes, when those people cry tears of blood,
that's when I'll be happy.
And the prince and princess
lived happily ever after.
Did he fall asleep?
Yeah.
He should sleep early. He always stays up.
Get over here.
Wait, let me apply some lotion.
Hurry up.
Gosh.
I know you like it.
Come here.
My honey.
Mom.
Jinwu, you woke up?
I want to sleep with you.
Jeong Jinwu!
You promised me you'd sleep on your own
after you entered kindergarten, right?
I don't want to.
Hey, Jeong Jinwu!
Don't cry, Jinwu.
You can sleep with me.
My dear Jinwu.
It's like this every time.
I'm not sure who gave birth to them.
But those are some beautiful babies.
Why are you home so late?
You're not sleeping?
I went to see a movie.
What's with the soju?
I couldn't fall sleep.
You have one too, Chansik.
Did something happen?
Please return
my youth
Be quiet. You'll wake Sora up.
Chansik.
Do you want to visit Donghyeon tomorrow?
Donghyeon?
Right, tomorrow is...
Forget it. What's the use?
My dead baby is already dead.
But my living baby is still alive.
Hwayeong came by.
What? Hwayeong?
When?
Looking for a four-leaf clover again?
I'll find one for sure this time.
And then I'll give it to you.
Look at this.
I found a four-leaf clover!
Donghyeon.
Where are you?
Donghyeon.
What are you doing? Come here.
Donghyeon.
Donghyeon?
Donghyeon!
Hello?
You requested a wake up call?
Yes, thank you.
See? You were thinking the same thing.
It wasn't an accident.
Baek Yeonhui and her father killed you.
I will never forgive them.
I thought of you every night for 6 years
so that I wouldn't forget you.
I'm in so much pain and agony.
But you're still the same.
You're President Baek's right-hand man.
You're his strategist and secretary.
Are you going to be his lapdog
and lick up the scraps he leaves you?
My brother was murdered.
I'm going to see
how long you can stay happy
even after you murder someone.
Jeong Jinwu.
Your mom's not Baek Yeonhui,
it's Lee Hwayeong.
You'll see, soon enough.
Baby, my son.
Is this Mrs. Jeong's home?
If she's home, I'd like to see her.
