What is the meaning of this?
Mom.
What are you doing here so early?
You should've called first.
I see you have a guest.
Well, it's...
Thank you for taking time out to see me.
Goodbye.
The thing is...
Have a seat, mother.
Who is that woman?
Is she the Grace Lee you were talking about?
Yes, let me explain.
There's no reason to explain.
I saw for myself that the rumors were true.
Try to understand, mother.
You know that
Yeonhui and I aren't as we were before.
After Jinwu was born, I was cast aside.
And it got worse after she started the cafe.
In broad daylight, in your own office,
I caught you frolicking with some woman!
And that's the best you've got?
Women will come on to you, because
you have a business and all.
But your father never did that.
He didn't do anything to cause
employees to talk behind his back.
I'm sorry.
I'm a woman, too.
Even if you're my son,
I can't allow you to do this!
I won't repeat myself since you're not a child.
Break it off.
After this moment onward,
break off the relationship so that
the employees don't talk.
What a fool!
Your order is here.
Episode 19
Enjoy.
I think I'm going out of my mind.
Why does it seem like
everyone is talking about Byeongguk?
This is so hard to deal with.
Oh, Huija.
Come inside.
Okay.
What? Really?
She was sitting on Byeongguk's lap
and acting all cute.
I couldn't bear to watch it.
How dare she!
What if the employees were to see it?
I can't believe this.
The two of them must be crazy.
They're crazy!
Tell me the truth.
Did you know about them?
Well, you see...
I did know that Grace Lee was Hwayeong.
Why are you telling me that now?
You should've told me earlier.
You played me for a fool!
I was going to tell you.
But as you know,
there was the matter of the contract.
And I didn't think it'd do you any good,
what with your high blood pressure and all.
I thought that once the deal was sealed,
Hwayeong would be returning to America.
Call her.
Call her and ask her to meet with me.
What will you tell her?
What do you mean, "What will I tell her?"
I'll tell her to stay away from Byeongguk.
Huija, it's no use.
I've already met with her.
She says she loves Byeongguk.
What?
And she said Byeongguk loves her, too.
She says it's fate and won't break up with him.
She made that very clear.
I can't believe it.
Huija, are you okay?
What are you doing here so early?
You should've called first.
I see you have a guest.
Manager Jeong Jinsuk
Hello?
Oh, Hwayeong.
What are you doing here?
Are Ms. Jeong and Mrs. Jeong inside?
Cheer up, Huija.
I tried to handle it on my own.
You call this handling it?
That's just great! You did a great job!
I'm sorry.
I told you that I'm sorry.
Let's let it go.
You know very well that Yeonhui must
never find out, don't you?
Of course I know that!
Hello, ma'am.
Have a seat.
Jinsuk, please leave us.
No, I want to stay.
What if your blood pressure rises again?
Don't worry about me.
Okay.
How have you been?
It's been a while. It's been 6 years now, right?
Yes.
So you're Grace Lee,
the assistant manager from Lasar?
Yes, that's right.
I'll get straight to the point.
Did you know that the child
you gave birth to belonged to Byeongguk?
Is that why you approached him, from the start?
I'm sure you won't believe what I say,
no matter what. But that isn't so.
It was a coincidence.
A coincidence?
Fine, let's say that's true.
What about the rumors
about you and Byeongguk?
Or even better, what was that bizarre scene
I had witnessed earlier?
I'm embarrassed to say but it just happened.
Sometimes, things like that happens between
men and women, even at work.
Leave this place.
What can you expect from Byeongguk?
He's a married man after all.
And you know he has a child.
You're not trying to get Byeongguk to divorce
his wife so that you can marry him, are you?
I don't expect anything from Byeongguk.
I just love him, ma'am.
So can't you
just look the other way?
You want me to look the other way?
I'm Byeongguk's mother.
You expect me to stand idly by
watching my son go down the wrong path?
You're quite brazen.
I'm sorry.
What will it take for you to leave?
Tell me.
Is it money?
Are you still mad?
I'm sorry. I really mean it.
For standing me up?
Or for meeting my sister over me?
Please don't take it the wrong way.
Something important came up.
In any case, I'm truly sorry.
Yeah, whatever.
What will it take for you to be
your happy self again?
Huh?
See? You're even prettier when you smile.
I always lose to you.
Is there a Ms. Baek Yeonhui?
That's me.
This is a delivery from Lee Hwayeong.
- Goodbye. / - Thank you.
Ms. Baek, they're so pretty.
Here's the card.
This basket of flowers expresses
my heartfelt apology.
I think I was being very thoughtless.
I hope that our friendship won't be affected
by this, will it?
Welcome.
- Yeonhui. / - Hey!
Wow.
Who sent it?
Hold on.
Hello?
Baek Yeonhui.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'll apologize a hundred times over. I'm sorry.
Will you accept my apology?
I love you.
I'm sorry for upsetting you, Yeonhui.
Please forgive me.
You know how much I love you.
You know that I couldn't live
a single day without you.
So please don't be mad anymore.
And forgive me, okay?
Honey.
Let's talk later at home.
Tell me that you've forgiven me.
Or else, I won't let you hang up.
Honey.
Now.
Okay, I forgive you for everything.
Thank you. I love you.
Is it Byeongguk?
What's the matter?
Did you guys fight?
No.
Yeah, right. It's written all over your face.
What did you fight about?
It was nothing.
Is the deal with Lasar
still not final?
I don't know. Why?
I just can't stand that Grace Lee woman.
The way she dresses, and how
she walks around with her nose up in the air.
I know.
She's having an affair with Mr. Jeong.
- Really? / - Yes.
The two of them are crazy.
They're a mess.
I think the two of them are crazy, too.
What am I going to do?
Here comes Jinwu in his car.
Vroom, vroom, vroom!
This side, too.
And the other way.
One more kiss.
Isn't this fun?
Huija.
Don't just sit there in silence. Say something.
What did Hwayeong say?
Did she say she won't break it off?
And that she won't go back?
Come on, Huija!
She wants $10 million.
What?
She said if I give her $10 million,
she won't see Byeongguk again.
$10 million?
She must be crazy.
So she is basically saying
that she won't break up with him ever.
I know.
Huija, we have no other options.
We have to make sure Byeongguk
stops seeing her.
Are you tired?
Let's go to bed.
Go ahead without me.
Why? Are you still mad?
It's not that.
I said I was sorry.
I said I'd apologize a hundred times.
So why are you still mad at me?
Honey.
Can't you just listen to me
when I ask you to come to bed or
when I ask for you to be understanding?
This is really wearing me out.
You weren't like this before.
You used to be so good and understanding.
Why have you changed? Why?
You're the one who has changed.
You know that!
Me?
I'm sorry I've been busy with work.
But that doesn't give you
the right to upset me like this!
Listen to me. It's not like that.
Listen? It's obvious what you'll say.
I'm not an idiot.
I can tell you're obviously still mad at me!
You're right. I am still upset with you.
But I'm trying.
It'll get better with time.
But instead of waiting, you're
commanding me to forgive you and smile.
I'm a woman with emotions.
I haven't come to terms with it yet
so don't force it on me.
We're husband and wife.
What did I force upon you?
Mom?
Yes, my son?
Mom, are you crying?
Yes, I'm crying.
Why?
People cry when they're happy, too.
And whenever I see you, I'm so happy
that it makes me cry.
Mom, I'm going to sleep now.
Okay.
Goodnight. Sweet dreams.
Goodnight.
What? They had a fight?
She looked like she was up all night crying.
Byeongguk wasn't like that before.
Why is he doing this now?
Yeonhui is the best wife a man could have!
Why did they fight?
You know Yeonhui.
She'd never divulge such things.
But dad, don't worry.
Married couples are bound
to get into arguments.
She's right.
If you and I got a divorce over every fight,
we'd have gotten divorced 20 times or more.
Don't say that in front of Junhui.
I was never at fault in any of the arguments.
That's your problem.
You're a perfectionist. Isn't that right?
Right.
It's suffocating!
Dad, can't you be more easygoing?
Easy, breezy, and happy.
Why, you little brat!
Hold on.
Who are you calling, dad?
I want to see what's up with Yeonhui.
Honey, do you know what time it is?
Oh...
You should visit Yeonhui tomorrow
and find out what's wrong.
So Hwayeong won't be coming over anymore?
I guess not.
She must be very busy.
I miss her.
Why are you home so late?
We've been waiting for you.
Uncle, have some watermelon.
Thanks, Sora. You eat up.
I'm going to wash up first.
Chansik?
We need to talk.
Let me wash up first.
You can wash up after talking.
What is it that's so urgent?
Are you telling secrets again?
I bet there's no one as close as you two,
who share so many secrets.
You know I'm right.
I do.
You're so adorable.
I'm done eating so I'm going inside.
So enjoy your secret conversation.
Thank you.
No! I should thank you.
What is this about?
Chansik, I think we'll have to force
Hwayeong to move in with us.
She says she's become a success.
But I think it's true that she's having
an affair with the CEO.
Everyone at work is talking about it.
She's dating the father of her surrogate son.
How could this be happening?
Maybe they're just rumors.
Chansik!
You know better than that!
You went to law school, after all!
It's a fact.
Fact and truth. Pretense and hypocrisy.
You must understand the aforementioned
in order to fully discern Hwayeong's problem.
Hey!
That makes absolutely no sense to me!
Get off your high horse. Talk simpler.
Oh, gosh.
Did you make up?
Why would you ask them such a question?
It's just a lovers' quarrel.
Byeongguk, you guys made up, right?
Let's stop talking about it.
Jinwu.
What would you like to eat?
Stop it.
Stop doting over your son.
Pay your husband some attention.
Jinwu is old enough now.
He can do things on his own.
Mom, why are you saying this?
Byeongguk, spend less time at work
and take more interest in your wife.
Mom, what's gotten into you?
The family must always come first.
Do you know what I mean, Byeongguk?
Yes.
I'll be paying the office a visit from now on.
Jinwu is all grown up.
I feel like I'm getting older, sitting idly at home.
I won't meddle in the business
so don't worry.
I should get going.
I'm coming, too.
Mom!
Grace Lee
Hello?
Good morning.
Is this too early to be calling?
No, it's fine.
I was wondering if you were free today.
I wanted to make plans with you,
before your schedule filled up.
I think I'll be free.
I'll check my schedule at work
and call you back. Okay.
Who is it, dad? It sounded like a woman.
Huh? Yes, it's a woman.
Who?
Just a woman. What do you mean?
Is she pretty?
Yes.
That's a problem.
Even my cold-hearted father
falls prey to pretty women.
I'm a man, too.
I love all the women in this world
from children to the older ladies.
That's why I have two daughters myself.
What about your grandson, Jinwu?
He's an exception.
There's no one in this world
who can beat him.
You'll be late. You two should get to work.
Let's go.
Are you feeling better today?
What are you talking about?
You were crying before.
When?
You don't have to be embarrassed about it.
Emotions get released through tears.
It's a moment of catharsis...
That's enough.
I'm better now.
But...
I'd like it if you didn't meddle in my affairs,
whether I cry, laugh or get mad.
My heart ached to see you in tears.
It's true that tears are a weapon.
How could she tear up my heart like this?
Ouch.
Oh, Michael.
- Good morning. / - Yes, good morning.
But...
What is it now?
Your good looks are like a weapon to women.
You're so handsome.
Hi, Chuja.
Chansik, are you going to meet me later?
Yes, don't worry.
Oh, my back.
I'm so bored.
Come in.
Mr. Jeong will be a bit late.
Is he with Grace Lee?
No, he has another appointment.
Would you like some more tea?
No thanks.
When he comes back,
tell him I was here.
Yes, I'll do that.
I've long been retired. I can't believe
I have to keep an eye on him like this.
Oh, my back.
What, may I ask, are you doing?
Move your feet.
Excuse me?
Lift up your feet.
Hey!
Oh, you scared me.
Why are you yelling at me?
What's wrong, old lady?
Old lady?
How dare you touch me with that dirty mop!
It's not dirty.
It's cleaner than the rag at your house, I bet.
What?
I can't believe it.
President.
President?
What brings you here?
I just dropped by.
I wanted to see how things were going.
Please come inside.
No, I just left the office.
- Get back to work. / - Goodbye then.
Make sure you do a good job.
President?
That old lady is the president?
So she's the mother-in-law?
Oh my.
Hey, Bae Chuja.
Go clean the hall in front of the CEO's office.
They called to say it was dirty.
You do it!
You won't listen to me?
I'm even letting you leave early today.
You better listen to me!
Fine, stop bossing me around.
Who does she think she is?
It'll just be a moment.
Mother?
Welcome.
Yeongeun, can you get some iced coffee?
That's alright. I'm not in the mood for coffee.
What's wrong with your hair?
Didn't you say you were going to the hair salon?
I didn't have the time.
No time?
You should make time to maintain yourself.
How can you be this way?
That's why your husband has...
Women must be pretty to be treated well.
Is Yeonhui not being treated well?
Mom?
Hello. What brings you by?
I was in the neighborhood
and I wanted to see Yeonhui.
If I don't stop by to see her,
it's hard to see Yeonhui at all.
But what were you just talking about?
Yeonhui isn't being treated well?
It's...
It was just a passing remark.
I'll get going now.
Have a good time with your daughter.
Your mother seems to have missed you.
Do her a favor and spend time with her.
Well, I should get going.
I'll see you later, mother.
Goodbye.
She is such a rude woman.
Don't be like that, mom. Let it go.
I'm right, you know.
"Your mother seems to have missed you."
"Do her a favor and spend time with her"?
How could she say that in front of me?
What brings you here, mom?
Did you and Byeongguk get into an argument?
Did Junhui tell you that?
It's not that. We just had a tiff.
Why did you two argue?
It's over now. Don't worry.
I don't know what the problem is, but
Byeongguk regards what you say so highly.
Just be patient and...
I got it, mom.
You look awful.
Let's have dinner with your dad.
Your dad is very worried about you.
I'm sorry, but I'm really busy.
And I have to go home early.
Your mother-in-law told you to
"do me a favor and spend time
with me." Remember?
Alright! I'll do that.
Happy?
Why didn't I realize
how amazing she was sooner?
Ready?
You're really good at squash.
I won, so you better keep your promise!
Fine.
What do you want? I'll buy it for you.
A golf club? If I want to stay here for a while,
I think I'll have to get some exercise.
Okay, let's go.
I can't believe them!
This one's okay. And this pattern works, too.
I've brought some coffee.
You sure are a crowd pleaser.
I was just thinking I needed some coffee.
Your timing couldn't be better, Mr. Yu.
If I'm to believe that you brought it for me...
You'd be psycho.
Take it however you'd like.
I just hope you enjoy the coffee.
Mr. Yu?
But I prefer dinner over coffee.
And I have something to discuss with you.
Dinner? Sure.
Let's all go out to dinner.
All of us?
Wow!
Mr. Yu, you're is the best!
Wait, is this the place?
Yes, I was here once before.
Are you sure about this? Hwayeong isn't home.
We can't worry about that right now.
At this rate, you, me and Hwayeong
will be in deep water.
Got it?
Do you know her door code?
Yes, the date of Donghyeon's death.
What? Why use his date of death?
I don't know
what Hwayeong is thinking right now.
I can't figure her out at all!
- Let's go inside. / - Okay.
Hwayeong has made it big.
What do you think?
We'll be moving just a few things.
There isn't much to move.
Once we take everything out...
Hurry up.
And call the moving truck services.
Okay, Chuja.
Chansik.
Really?
While I was at the office,
those two were out galavanting?
You being there makes no difference.
If someone really wants something,
you can't stop him, no matter
how hard you try.
They were walking arm in arm.
Gosh.
Dad.
Jinwu, did you have a good day today?
Mother.
I'm home.
Come in here.
Where were you earlier?
I went to your office.
I heard. I was out meeting a client.
By that do you mean you were out with
Grace Lee to buy her golf clubs?
What's wrong with you?
How could you completely ignore what I asked?
I told you to break it off!
You must be out of your mind.
What's wrong with you?
Did you hire someone to tail me?
Yes, I did. Why?
I hired someone.
Huija, stop. Okay?
Byeongguk, that's enough. Get out of here.
I'll take care it, so please leave me alone.
Things are hectic as it is!
Why are you making a big deal over nothing?
Do you think Hwayeong is acting like this
because of the baby she gave birth to?
Can I meet Jinwu just once?
I want to see him.
I'll introduce you to my family's angel.
What do you intend to do?
Why did you come back here?
Tell me.
I love Mr. Jeong Byeongguk.
Are you going to end it
with Grace Lee or not?
I told you several times. It's work!
Give up that US contract.
I don't need the contact.
I miss you, don't you get it?
Mr. Jeong Byeongguk,
I don't think things will work out with Lasar.
