Episode 36
Why are you sighing like that?
It's nothing.
Don't frown like that.
It upsets me to see you angry.
I'm not angry.
Don't make that face.
Now, will you please smile?
Like Jinwu?
See? You're so handsome when you smile.
You really look so much like Jinwu.
It wouldn't be so hard
if I had chosen you to begin with, right?
Let's go out.
Where to?
I'm totally stressed out, so
how about we go to a hotel spa?
Oh, no. I have plans tonight.
A friend of mine is flying in from the States.
I have to go to the airport.
Who's the friend?
A secret friend you wouldn't know about.
Is it a man?
Maybe.
John!
How have you been?
I've missed you!
This is my friend Hwayeong.
Hi. I'm Robert.
Welcome.
Good to meet you.
- Let's go. / - Shall we?
How have you been...
Come on!
I'm not going!
We should go together to get ice waters!
Come on! Come with me!
Come on!
Is your boss not in?
No, she went out.
Two ice waters.
Here. It's iced tea.
What?
You didn't even want to give us
ice waters before.
It's like a donation.
And my boss asked me to be kind.
What? A donation?
How dare you?
It's only an example. I said "like"!
Thank you.
I'm not thankful at all!
Watch it!
We could've enjoyed these inside.
Why did you want to come out here?
The ice in my iced tea is melting.
Having so many kids brings me such heartache.
So many kids?
You don't have a lot of kids!
You only have two daughters!
Ssangsun, compared to you who has none,
I have two.
That's a lot comparatively.
And Chansik makes 3!
Oh yeah!
What was wrong with my Chansik darling?
Why did he get so drunk?
I'm not sure.
He won't tell me but
he's upset about something.
I think it's over a woman.
What? A woman?
Who is she?
Who's chasing after my Chansik darling?
Calm down. He's my brother, not yours.
Your brother?
If he's your brother, he's my brother, too.
Who is she?
Who's tormenting my darling brother?
How should I know?
All I know is,
I've never known him to come home
drunk over some woman.
If I only knew who she was, I'd destroy her!
My fists of fury are itching for a fight!
Oh, geez!
Ms. Jeong couldn't make it to the meeting,
because she's not feeling well.
There's no other news.
Cheese!
Whiskey!
Miranda?
Why is Ms. Jeong not well?
She said she had a headache.
A headache?
She's a bit over-dramatic, as you know.
She said she'll get some rest
before leaving the office.
So you should go home, too.
Oh! Oh, my head!
I feel like my head is about to explode!
Why is everything so complicated?
It's killing me...
I brought you some medicine.
I hope you feel better soon.
It hurts me so much
to see you in pain, Ms. Jeong.
For the first time in my life,
I was drawn to someone...
But look at what's happened!
How could this be? Geez!
Do you remember
how we drank this before and you passed out?
I woke up and I was in your bed.
You left quite an impression.
You were passed out drunk, so
I carried you to my house and let you sleep.
And you boldly demanded I make you
breakfast the next morning!
Isn't my boldness why you fell for me?
You're right.
That's why I'm here in Seoul.
About President Baek Cheol.
What is he like?
He seems really sweet,
but he's got a dark heart.
By that, do you mean
he's the kind of person who feels
no remorse even after murdering your brother?
Yes.
If you take this on as if it's child play,
it will surely fail.
Okay. I'll keep that in mind.
You know that
he and I are of the same flock.
Right.
I was drawn to the darkness in your heart
from the moment I met you.
To our victorious day. Cheers.
Cheers.
What's this?
How could they leave me out like this?
Oh my!
It's just me.
You scared me.
What are you doing here?
Why haven't you gone home yet?
How could I go when you're not well?
Are you better now?
You're not dizzy, are you?
I'm fine. It's bearable.
Let's go. I'll take you home.
I won't let you go
How could I let you go?
If you must go, if you're to leave
Mend my heart, before you go
So that I don't feel such pain
So that I can go on
If not, I won't be able to go on
I won't let you go ever!
Let's disregard them.
Let's focus on just us.
You've been to my house so you know
that I don't have much to offer but myself.
If I don't do this,
I don't think I could see you ever.
So what I'm saying is...
I'm sorry, but I won't give you up like this.
I can't.
Let's just do this.
Sora?
Sora!
Is she sleeping already?
Why are you sitting there like that?
Are you mad I got home so late?
Sorry. I had a work dinner thing.
Did you have dinner?
No?
You didn't even have breakfast!
Why would you skip dinner as well?
I'll go get you something to eat.
Mom?
Did Uncle Chansik drink
because of me?
No.
Why would you even say that?
Hwayeong said so.
She said he drank...
Because of me.
That's not so.
He drank because he was
upset over something.
You know how much he loves you.
That would never happen.
Mom?
Why does Hwayeong hate me so much?
Sometimes...
I think that I should have never been born.
How could you say that?
I couldn't live a single day without you.
I can go on like this because of you.
So don't say that.
Hwayeong just said that
because she's going through tough times.
She doesn't hate you.
Come here.
That wretched girl.
How dare she break my sweet Sora's heart!
Wretched girl!
Aunt Jinsuk!
Oh geez! You scared me!
What?
Nothing.
Wait!
What happened to your lips?
What?
Your lipstick's all smeared
and your lips look all swollen!
This is fishy!
What? What!
Be quiet! Go to bed!
Kissing takes skills!
How could he do that to your lips!
Oh, geez!
What will I do?
Oh, geez!
Look at me!
Ouch, that hurts.
Don't get up.
You didn't even have breakfast.
I'll get you some warm milk.
I can just go on a diet.
You can finally get a break from the kitchen.
Don't joke around.
Dad.
I made breakfast. Come have some.
Come on. We don't have much time.
Mom, I made you some porridge.
You should have some later.
What's gotten into her?
I can't believe Junhui's made me breakfast!
That was my daughter
Junhui who just said that, right?
It's as good as
the coffee at Yeonhui's shop, huh?
Sure is! This is great coffee.
Don't worry about Yeonhui.
She'll overcome this.
I wouldn't call refusing
to divorce "overcoming."
I don't get her.
Can't you just get a lawyer and
make her get a divorce?
You know how headstrong she is.
And I'm worried about Jinwu, too.
Everyone's all about Jinwu!
That's enough. And by the way...
My friend's son just returned from the States.
He will become a professor at a music school.
A music professor?
What's his concentration? Piano?
Cello.
Cello?
Well? Do you want his number?
No thanks.
I should get to work. Bye, dad.
You should finish eating...
That kid!
Eat up!
Thank you for breakfast.
I should get going.
Bye. Watch out for the traffic.
Have a good day, Sora!
You too, Uncle Chansik.
Bye, Hwayeong.
Wretched girl!
What?
How can you be so nonchalant after
being so mean to your sister?
Why are you attacking me?
Sora didn't eat all day yesterday.
And last night, she said she feels
she should have never been born.
That it would've been better that way!
What? Sora said that?
Hwayeong! What did you say to her?
I thought she was oblivious
but finally, she's getting it.
She even knows her place now.
Hwayeong, how could you do that?
You shouldn't treat her that way!
Sora's my daughter.
If you ever say anything to her again,
I will disown you for good.
Got it?
So watch what you say to her.
What did you say to Sora?
This is all your fault.
It's because you got drunk and yelled at me.
Me?
Oh, geez! Love is to blame!
Love!
Welcome.
Have a seat.
I've heard a lot about you.
I heard you were a skilled businessman.
Really?
I prefer to be labeled as being professional.
So I'd like you to get my attention
by showing me something with impact.
Or rather,
not mine but get Robert's attention.
I'd like to determine the benefit of
HS Group with my own eyes.
Don't worry.
We want to verify the value of
the John Moss company
through this meeting, too.
Great.
Our design team
used the shade blue to give it a refreshing look
and with this see-through fabric...
It's very special...
The design, quantity, all the factors are set.
Okay, okay. Good.
What? Really?
I'm on point with these things.
Something happened between
Chef Michael and Ms. Jeong.
What do you suppose that something is?
Maybe...
They slept together again!
Jessica!
Yes, Ms. Lee?
Why are you goofing off?
What about the new menu?
Well...
I couldn't think of any ideas.
Do whatever it takes!
And you should think
rather than run your mouth!
I saw on TV that if you
look into a mirror on the night of a full moon,
your future husband
will appear in the reflection.
Oh, my!
What's the matter?
When did you get here?
Just now.
This is definitely destiny.
Destiny?
Will there be a full moon tonight?
Oh! Why yes, it is.
Professor! Oh, professor!
What will I do? Professor!
What do you think about
the CEO of John Moss?
He seems as sharp as they say.
And seamlessly so, too.
That's why he's keen
on investing big in the fashion industry
even though the economy
is down in the States.
He seems very audacious.
That worries me, though.
I feel like he's just bulldozing through this.
Wouldn't that be a big risk to us?
Mr. Yu,
don't you trust my instincts?
I tend to think long and hard about something,
but once it's set in motion,
I go for it all the way.
Trust your instincts once you've decided.
Otherwise, you miss out on opportunities.
We can go visit their headquarters and
factories to make sure.
Yes, sir.
You started this.
Let's not lie about it, Ms. Baek.
You're the one who started this.
You put the wrong buttons on the samples.
It's my job to help you correct your mistakes.
- 1:0. / - I wasn't the only one working on that.
Then what were you doing?
1:1.
You've been attacking me
because of private matters.
You better stop it. I can't take it anymore!
Private matters?
I'm glad you brought that up!
I've been itching to take
my anger out on something!
I've been holding back since we're friends!
Remember?
I said I'd return what
you did to me in ten folds?
Well? Are you ready?
You might end up fist fighting here.
You're not going to do that, are you?
Ms. Jeong, you can't beat Ms. Baek.
She's too strong.
I can, too!
I had taekwondo lessons in elementary school!
I took hapkido!
You're dead meat!
Mr. Yu! Thank goodness!
We were about to have a war on our hands.
Please call for an armistice!
What are you doing?
Are you on something?
Mr. Yu.
Fire Ms. Jeong
or transfer her to another department.
Oh, bring it on!
This is why people say
you got this job through connections!
Why did you say that to her?
She said I got here through connections!
You told me to fire her first!
They're snacks.
Geez!
Have some coffee and cool down.
Thank you.
You must be really upset.
It's been really difficult for me lately.
Getting along at work can be tough sometimes.
And you're friends and in-laws at that.
Try to be understanding of her.
Okay. I guess I have no choice.
We just know too much about each other.
Hey, Jeong Yumi.
I'm sorry.
What? She's not the type to apologize.
Jinwu!
Ms. Lee!
Hello.
Did you have a good day today?
What? Someone took him?
A young, pretty woman took her.
Jinwu knew her, too.
How could a school be so negligent?
What if something happens to him?
I kept calling you, but you wouldn't answer.
So I got in touch with his dad
and he said I could let Jinwu go with her.
She spoke to your husband herself.
With my husband?
Okay, then.
I'm sorry, Ms. Baek.
It's fine.
It's me. Where are you?
Don't run like that, Jinwu!
What if you fall!
Where's Jinwu?
You came quicker than I expected.
Get off!
Why are you acting so cheap?
What?
Look how happy he looks.
Do you want to raise him locked up in a cage?
Is that your idea of motherly love?
Who are you to intervene?
And how dare you take Jinwu?
Didn't the teacher tell you?
Byeongguk said I could.
Don't ever approach my son again.
And the affair?
Go ahead and do that!
The world is pointing fingers at you,
but do as you wish.
Just keep away from my son.
I won't let an awful woman like you take him!
Awful?
Yes! Awful!
I didn't know before!
But you're such a filthy, trashy tramp!
I've always wanted to do that.
You act all sweet and innocent.
Thanks.
Anyone who's called a trashy tramp would
do exactly as I just did.
What are you doing?
Get off me!
Why are you acting so cheap?
How could you do this?
You let her take Jinwu without telling me!
That's why I'm here.
I'm his father.
Jinwu!
Stop.
You're not being yourself.
How am I supposed to act
when some crazy woman takes my child?
Should I sit idly and watch?
Should I just sit there and take it like a fool?
Why did you even come here?
You should've just let them be!
You're crazy.
You've gone mad!
You've gone crazy over that woman, huh?
Now she's not only trying to take you
but she's trying to take Jinwu, too?
Tell me.
How did it get to this?
I was going to take him back soon.
You didn't even answer your phone.
Why didn't you just call me?
Why did you come here?
That woman took my son!
Mom!
Jinwu!
What's wrong, mom?
Don't cry.
I'll catch you a butterfly!
Jinwu... Jinwu...
Jinwu.
Go home with mom.
I have to go back to the office with Ms. Lee.
Okay.
Jinwu...
I think we should break up.
I don't want to be caught in the middle like this.
Things are tough as they are! Why add to it?
If you kept quiet, I said I'd take care of it!
That way I can get a divorce or whatever else!
I'm sorry.
I missed Jinwu so much, though.
You don't know how scary
my father-in-law can be.
He's no joke. He can't be messed with.
If I say we're getting a divorce...
If you do, then what?
Would he kill you?
Then let him kill you.
I'll just die with you. I'd have
no regrets, as long as I'm with you.
Hwayeong.
You know how much I love you.
You know I couldn't last a day without you.
I'm Jinwu's mom.
I carried him inside me for 9 months!
We breathed the same air,
slept and ate as one.
And I just wanted to see my son.
Was that so wrong?
And do you know what
your sweet and innocent
wife said to me?
She called me a filthy, trashy tramp.
You don't have to believe me.
I only need you.
Even if I'm attacked,
as long as I have you and Jinwu by my side,
I can withstand anything.
You know that, don't you?
Tada! I caught these!
You caught these? Great job!
Now that you caught some dragonflies,
do you want to go home?
Sure.
Get your dragonflies.
Let's go.
Are you glad you caught so many dragonflies?
Hello.
Who are you?
Don't you remember me?
I was waiting for my mom
and you let me wait at your cafe.
My mom is a custodian at your building.
Oh, I remember now. How are you?
Fine, thank you.
Mom, who's she?
Me?
I'm Lee Sora. What's your name?
- I'm Jeong Jinwu. / - Hi.
Here. This is for you.
Here. Have one.
Thanks.
Wow! Is this your bike, Sora?
It looks like junk, huh?
But it's sturdier than any other!
I want a ride.
May I give him a ride?
I won't go fast.
Sure.
Yay!
Come on, Jinwu.
Hold on to her tightly and be careful.
We're off!
Yay!
Are you having fun?
Jinwu!
Mom!
It's Sora.
Hello?
Mom.
What's wrong?
I'm at the hospital right now.
What? Why are you there?
Okay.
Okay, I got it.
What's wrong? Did Sora get into trouble?
She got hurt riding her bike.
I have to go see her.
We have general evaluations today.
The captain's going to be here.
You can't go.
What will I do?
Call Hwayeong and see if she's free.
Okay.
Hello?
Hwayeong? It's me.
Hwayeong! Where's mom?
Mom was too busy to come.
What happened?
I fell while riding my bike.
And...
A little boy got hurt because of me.
What?
Where's the little boy?
He's getting treated in there.
You made him get hurt?
Yes, I was giving him a ride.
Are you crazy?
Do you even know who that is?
What's wrong, Hwayeong?
Come with me!
Sora! Hwayeong!
Hwayeong...
What were you doing at that park?
If you weren't there,
he wouldn't have gotten hurt!
I'm sorry, Hwayeong.
What is wrong with you?
Why are you tormenting me like this?
I really loathe you. I truly can't stand you!
Hwayeong...
Don't ever say my name again.
You...
You aren't my sister.
Hwayeong...
I told you!
You are a cursed child!
You have cursed my life!
Hwayeong!
My Jinwu got hurt!
Why are you making mother mad?
I'm not allowed to express how I feel?
I can't say it's not fair?
I can't say I'm upset?
What are you doing?
I won't back down this time.
I can't take it anymore.
I know how it feels to be in great pain.
And I'll make sure to return the favor.
Oh, my darling Jinwu!
I said stay away from Jinwu!
Mother, I'm here to see Jinwu.
My son.
Your son?
We haven't met officially, right?
I gave birth to Jinwu.
I'm his surrogate mother.
