Two Mothers
It feels great to be having a meal
with such a famous man as yourself.
I heard you were in America for a long time.
Why did you come back?
For work.
What line of work are you in?
You'll be very surprised if I told you.
If I've fallen on tough times,
would you mind if I called you?
I don't know if I'd be much help.
You'd be a great source of comfort.
Actually, I grew up without a dad.
Every time I see you,
It would be great if you were my dad.
A good dad everyone seems to have but me.
It was very tough growing up.
I'm not such a good dad
as you may think.
What do you mean?
You're kind and amazing.
I think you'd always side with your daughter.
I read an interview of you in a magazine.
You said your 2 daughters mattered most
in this world.
Yes.
My daughter means everything to me.
That's why I hurt her
beyond forgiveness.
When I think back, I'm not sure if
I did the right thing.
May I ask why you'd say that?
Do you have regrets?
No, I have no regrets.
It was the best I could do
for my daughter at the time.
You must really love your daughter.
What parent wouldn't love his daughter?
Let's eat.
- Yes. - Eat up.
Please help me carry this inside.
Ma'am, ma'am?
What?
There's a delivery for Jinwu from the mall.
Who sent it?
There's no sender information.
Thank you, ma'am.
Thanks to this ice water,
I'm happy beyond words!
I'll give you more anytime so come back.
Okay.
It cooled me down to the core!
How refreshing!
Thank you.
- Goodbye. - Bye.
You shouldn't be too nice to her.
She'll keep coming back.
Yeongeun, don't say that.
Do you know how hard it is to clean?
Hello, mother.
Hey, Jinwu is really excited today.
Did you order the toy car?
No.
Byeongguk said it wasn't him, either.
Not Jinsuk either.
Then who sent it?
Do you think it was your parents?
I haven't had such a laugh in a long time.
It's all thanks to you.
Cheers.
I'll make you laugh often.
Hi, Yeonhui.
Dad?
Did you buy a toy car for Jinwu?
A toy car?
No, I didn't buy one for him.
Did someone send a toy car for Jinwu?
Yes, mother just called to say
that someone gave it to Jinwu as a gift.
Really? That's great.
I was going to buy him one
but I don't have to anymore.
Okay, bye then.
I'm sorry.
Can't you love me like that, too?
I want to be loved
regardless of type or form.
Jeong Byeongguk
Let's eat.
She's not picking up?
You should persuade Grace Lee
to make things go smoothly.
My name is Grace Lee.
Should I tell this to Michael or not?
I'm going mad.
Chef Michael, can we talk?
Ms. Lee, I have a favor to ask.
Can you please stop looking at me
with that strange look?
You're so handsome every time I see you.
Even like this?
Like this?
Oh, you're a work of art!
What do you want?
Shh! This is a secret.
What are you doing?
I'm afraid you'll have a heart attack.
Your hand is so soft.
Tell me quickly.
It's about Hwayeong.
Hwayeong? What about her?
Hwayeong is actually
Grace Lee.
What do you mean?
Hwayeong is actually
Grace Lee from Lasar in America.
What? That can't be.
Let's start the meeting.
You're so good at it.
Come here.
He's been wanting that car so badly.
Jinwu is so excited.
I wonder who sent it.
It's not your father.
Maybe it was a wrong delivery.
You said it Jinwu's name was
on the delivery form.
Yes.
Then it must be right.
Yeonhui, did you get the toy car?
I hope Jinwu likes it.
I want to see cute Jinwu
so can you take a photo?
It's from my friend whose from America.
Friend from America?
She's a regular customer of mine.
She gave Jinwu his clothing.
Oh, really?
Jinwu, I'll take a photo of you.
Look at me!
One, two, three.
That's good.
Mom, you should eat.
I can remove the bones myself.
Okay, you should eat though.
Mom, is Hwayeong not coming home?
I miss her.
Hwayeong?
Don't even mention her name.
That awful girl. She won't be coming.
It's hot.
Uncle?
Why are you eating so late?
I just got back from my lessons.
You're always the head of
your class like I used to be.
You don't need extra lessons.
Just play all you want.
Studying should be done while having fun.
Don't tell her that.
That's why you turned out like this.
If you studied hard, you'd be a judge.
Stop saying that already.
You're like a broken record!
Right, Sora?
Yeah, that's right.
The two of you make a great team.
I need to talk to you.
Eat up.
What? Grace Lee?
Yes, Ms. Lee...
I mean, Lee Gonghui told me
that Grace Lee from America is Hwayeong.
Then...
So that's why she comes to the building.
Chansik, so it means
Hwayeong has become a great success?
That's an understatement.
My boss is trembling with fear.
So if she's so successful,
why isn't she coming back home?
Wait.
Yeah, mom?
Where are you?
At home.
What home?
Your home is here with your mom.
I told you I got a studio.
So where is that?
How can I not know where my daughter lives?
Where did you rent the studio?
Why, this little... Gosh.
Jeong Jinwu.
You're so adorable, my dear son.
What are you looking at?
It looked like a photo of a child.
Can't I see it, too?
How can I help you?
Grace Lee.
No.
Lee Hwayeong.
You are as beautiful and sexy as ever.
Provocative, too.
I didn't know I'd meet you again like this
even though it's a small world.
You should stop.
I'm not meeting Grace Lee right now.
I'm meeting with Lee Hwayeong,
the woman I had loved in the past.
Love?
You?
Yes, I used to be in love with you.
Do you think I'm doing this over the contract?
Well, I'm not.
I've given up on the deal.
I just want...
I just want you to know how I feel.
Please try to understand.
Lee Hwayeong.
I understand.
I've missed you, too.
You were the only thing on my mind.
Hwayeong.
Mr. Jeong?
It's getting late.
I've missed you, too.
You were the only thing on my mind.
Honey?
When did you get in?
I was worried about you.
You didn't pick up the phone.
My dear wife.
Baek Yeonhui.
What are you doing? You'll wake Jinwu.
Jinwu, Jinwu, Jinwu!
Is that all you care about?
Good morning.
Hey, newbie.
Is the woman from
yesterday really your daughter?
What are you talking about?
Of course, she's my daughter.
I saw her walking
alongside the CEO just now.
The CEO?
Yeah.
Gonghui told me
that Grace Lee from America is Hwayeong.
You included all of our terms, too.
Yes.
You must be really worried.
You don't have to go all out like this.
Make some adjustments after
looking over it again.
Don't regret it later on.
I'll discuss the revised contract over
with the main office.
Okay then.
We look forward to
hearing good news from you.
Oh, wait.
Are you free in the evening?
May I ask why?
We haven't treated you to a proper dinner
so we'd like to do that today.
I'm free.
Then I'll call you later.
Now, if you'll excuse me.
What are you staring at?
I just think it's fascinating.
You're Grace Lee from Lasar.
And I'm seeing you again like this.
Our first encounter was a coincidence
but maybe a second encounter is fate.
I thought you were just
a rich man's son before.
But now...
You seem quite attractive.
But I'm sorry.
You've already become married
so I can't do anything.
Call me.
I'll keep my evening free.
Wait. I have to go to the restroom.
What are you doing right now?
Hwayeong!
I heard you've become greatly successful.
Is it true that even
the CEO trembles before you?
Why do you care?
That's none of your business.
And I told you to quit the job here.
Why would I? I have to make a living.
And how would I raise Sora if I quit?
Stop talking nonsense
and come home with me.
Pretend you don't know me.
Or else I will disown you for good.
Don't do this. Just come home with me.
Do you want me to be gone?
Do you want me to disappear?
Gonghui.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Sorry, sir!
Ms. Bae, what are you doing here?
We need to talk.
It'll only take a moment.
Sit here.
Ms. Bae, I have to get back.
What is this about?
Hello. May I take your order?
I'm the cleaning lady here.
We'll only be a moment.
Gonghui?
Tell me about Hwayeong.
What's going on with Hwayeong?
Is it true that even the CEO
trembles before her?
Is that true?
Yes.
But why didn't she tell me anything?
Hey, newbie.
I was wondering where you were.
You should be cleaning,
not chatting away here!
I finished all my tasks!
So don't mess with me!
Finished all your tasks?
Yeah right!
The men's toilet in the fourth floor
is clogged up.
You should go. I have to get back, too.
Gonghui, please.
- Hello. - Hello, ma'am.
Oh, no.
Gonghui, let's finish this talk!
Newbie, that toilet needs unclogging!
She's just too noisy.
She doesn't even order coffee.
She's always asking for water.
Just go easy on her.
What's so hard about giving her water?
I'm going mad.
How could I forget about that?
The child Hwayeong gave birth to
belongs to Yeonhui.
And here they are, right in front of me!
What am I to do?
Ms. Lee.
Where is Ms. Jeong?
I'm not sure. Why?
Hello.
Hi.
Ms. Jeong is out.
Yes, I know.
You're handsome.
How is the contract with Lasar going?
I'm dying to find out.
But you're never home.
We made some revisions and sent it back.
So we'll be hearing from them soon.
When the contract is signed,
will Grace Lee be returning to New York?
I'm not sure.
I think she'll be here long-term.
What? Long-term?
Then what about her relationship
with our company?
I'm not sure. We'll have to see.
I don't really like Grace Lee.
She's so haughty and I don't like her.
She pretends to be so important.
Don't fall for a woman like her.
I don't have a good feeling about her.
Come on.
I'm no kid. Why would I like her?
No, I'm just saying.
Yeonhui?
Ms. Lee.
Ms. Lee?
We're supposed to be friends now.
Then should I call you "Hwayeong"?
Of course.
Yeonhui.
Ta-da.
You can have Jinwu wear this.
You didn't have to.
You must've spent a lot of money on the car.
Jinwu is just too cute.
He is so cute that I want to bite him.
Thank you.
Aunt Jinsuk?
Yeonhui.
She's a regular at my shop.
I mean, she's a friend of mine.
Friend?
Hello.
Would you like some coffee?
Huh?
No, I just had some.
I was just in the same building.
Yeonhui, I'll have to get going now.
See you again.
Why she's...
Do you know her?
Huh?
No.
Yeonhui, I have to go since I'm busy.
- Keep up the good work. - Bye.
What do you think you're doing?
Why are you here?
Why don't you let go of me first?
Why come to a coffee shop?
To drink coffee, of course.
You promised not to do this.
What do you mean?
Hwayeong!
I don't know what you're thinking
but I came to have some coffee.
And I'm meeting Mr. Jeong Byeongguk
because of work.
Yeonhui is a good woman.
So stay away from her.
Stay away from her?
What? Why would you say that?
What's wrong with you?
It's not like I'm here to kill her or something.
I know you have to meet Jeong for work,
but stay away from Yeonhui.
If you keep this up,
I won't turn a blind eye to it.
What did I do?
Well, I think you should stay away from me.
You know who has the short end of the stick.
Jinwu, you look adorable in these!
It's even the perfect size!
I don't know who she is
but she's got great taste.
Isn't that a little tacky?
Don't say that.
You never bought Jinwu
a single present as his aunt.
Wait, Jinwu.
Look at this.
Wow, it's a car.
Who gave him the car?
Is it the same woman?
No, mother.
I had received it a while back.
It's from a college friend of mine.
College friend?
The one who works at your dad's firm?
Oh, are you talking about Yu Seongbin?
Yes.
He's quite something
to give his friend's son a present.
Why buy a gift for a someone else's son?
Come on, mom.
Yeonhui and him used to be friends in college.
Mr. Yu is so charming.
Thank you. Let me pour you a glass.
Thank you.
Shall we drink?
Thank you.
Let's dance.
The person you are trying to reach...
Thank you, Mr. Jeong.
Goodbye.
Hwayeong.
Grace Lee.
I'll see you at our next meeting.
The sandals are very cute.
And the size is perfect, too.
Thank you very much.
Mr. Jeong Byeongguk?
I have a nice bottle of wine...
Would you like to come in for a glass?
The person you are trying to
reach is not available.
After the beep...
Who sent the text message?
You've been smiling all night.
It's none of your business.
You'll be hurt if you found out.
So? Keep going.
Wait.
Is it too late to talk?
My husband isn't home yet.
What are you doing? Sleeping?
I'm having wine with a friend.
Friend? Your boyfriend?
Isn't it rude to do this while you have a guest?
Tell me.
Do you still have feelings for me?
I know that
the person you've fallen for
is not Lee Hwayeong of the past.
But Grace Lee of the present.
Byeongguk didn't come home last night.
Honey, I'm sorry.
Do you still have feelings for me?
I've missed you so much.
Sir.
I love you.
He's married already...
I don't know if I should keep seeing him.
It's not right to see him.
He says
he doesn't love his wife.
Don't worry.
It'll all work out.
This isn't proper behavior for the office.
Are you toying with me?
Isn't it fun?
This is thrilling.
