What color are your clothes?
My jacket's a khaki color. My bag's black.
What do you look like?
It will be faster for me to find you.
Me?
Look for a handsome and sexy man.
- Excuse me? - You'll notice me right away.
Take a look around. Don't you see me?
Are you wearing glasses? Where are you?
- Right behind you. - What?
- Are you okay, Jaeun? - Yes, I'm alright.
Thank you.
What do you think? I'm handsome and sexy, right?
Excuse me?
Lieutenant Hwang.
We meet at last.
Let's say hi first. Nice to meet you, I'm Kim Jeha.
Hello, I'm Baek Jaeun.
I'm sorry. I didn't know that you had company.
If you had told me, I'd have asked to meet you tomorrow.
- It's alright. - No, I feel uncomfortable.
I'll just go home today and call you tomorrow.
We can't do that. It was so hard to meet you.
That's ridiculous.
Let's go together. Let's go to my office.
Hey, it's Jaeun!
Hello, Jaeun.
Do you know each other?
That's good. We can talk over dinner then.
- How do you know each other? - Well...
In the past, Jaeun...
It's a long story.
- How have you been? - Good.
Jaeun, you keep getting prettier every time we meet.
Don't you think so?
- How do you know each other? - We just met.
She rejected my call 10 times.
I saw the characters and story she entered into a contest.
And I kept offering to work with her.
I want to use her characters to create an animation.
Jaeun, that's wonderful.
Do you want to see it? It's okay, right?
I've been carrying it around with me ever since I first saw it.
No, wait...
What do you think?
This is so cute!
What are these? Birds? Ducks?
That's right, they're ducks. It's about a duck family.
The characters are good but the story's even better.
Jaeun, this is based on a true story, isn't it?
The missing written promise and the four duck brothers...
It's so detailed. It must be true.
Yes, it's based on a true story.
I see... What happens next?
- Do they find the written promise? - Yes.
But it would've been better if it hadn't been found. It's a tragedy.
Goodness... How was it found?
Who does Ojak end up liking out of the four brothers?
I don't think it's appropriate for a children's animation.
I'm grateful for your offer.
But on second thought, I don't think we can work together.
I'm sorry to change my mind after asking to meet you.
It was an honor to meet you.
I know it's rude, but I'd like to leave.
I never said it was going to be a children's animation.
I don't think I ever said that.
Then...
We'll go first.
Our team leader called.
Take your time and talk it over during dinner. Let's go.
Yes, we got a call. All of a sudden...
What's the matter?
Did something happen between you and Baek Jaeun?
You won't talk or even look at each other.
Were you two going out?
They were going out.
- Baek Jaeun? - Yes?
You don't really feel like dinner either, do you?
- No... - Let's go then.
Let's go to the office and discuss work.
I'm sorry. Can you give me some time to think about it?
I'm not confident. I don't know if I'm ready to work yet.
Alright.
But I can't give you a lot of time. Think about it for one more day.
Once you decide, I will provide you with the best possible offer.
Yes. I'm sorry for changing my mind.
It wasn't, was it? Tell me it wasn't you.
Tell me you didn't steal it. Please.
If you say it wasn't you, I will believe you.
Just tell me you didn't do it.
Mrs. Hwang!
Why are you sitting out here alone?
Go inside. Taepil... Uncle Taepil's home.
He is working.
Where did you learn to speak Korean?
I learnt Korean from my mom.
Where's your mom now? Do you know?
Do you know or don't you? Just tell me that.
I do not know.
- Do you know who I am? - Yes.
You do? Who am I?
You are my grandmother.
What's that? Show me that.
What is it? Give it to me.
- Did your mom write this for you? - Yes.
She really planned this out.
Don't cry because you miss mom.
When you feel like crying, hold your nose and don't breathe.
If you still feel like crying, hide alone, cry for 3 minutes.
Then wash your face and wipe your tears.
Let's go inside.
It's cold at night. Come on.
Let's go.
Taesik!
- Taesik... - Yejin...
I'm sorry, Yejin.
I didn't even call you... Are you mad?
Rather than being mad... I thought you were mad at me.
- I thought you were sick of me... - No, of course not!
It's not like that at all. Don't get the wrong idea.
Okay, that's all I need to know.
I'm not angry.
Can you tell me what's going on?
It's family business. I can't tell you right now.
I'll tell you later.
Okay. You would've told me if you could.
Tell me when you feel comfortable.
Let's drink our coffee and go have dinner.
Yes, Yejin.
Tell me what you'd like. I'll buy you anything.
Okay.
I was really worried.
I even went to meet Misuk.
Oh, yeah. Who's that little boy with Misuk?
He looked like he's mixed.
Ouch! It's hot!
Are you alright, Taesik?
- Where? - It's okay...
- Who is it? - Come out. I want to talk to you.
What is it?
Did you take Guksu out when you met Yejin earlier today?
- What? - Yejin asked me.
She asked me who the mixed boy with you was.
So? Are you here to argue about that?
Yes, I am.
Why did you take Guksu out?
Why would you do that unless you want us to break up?
I didn't take him out. He was standing there.
Do you really have to be like that?
Do you still want to get in the way of Yejin and myself?
Hey! Do I have to knock some sense into you?
- What? - That's it!
Hey! Hey!
Kim Misuk! Are you crazy?
Yes, I am. So what?
Have you woken up to yourself now?
So what did you tell her?
Did you tell her who he is? Did you tell him he's your son?
Why do you care?
It's true. That's your motive.
You want me to say that to Yejin, don't you?
You want to break us up.
Why don't you just tell her yourself that Guksu's my son?
You're such a loser!
I didn't take him out.
Call Yejin right now.
I'll prove it to you.
How dare you curse me? Loser?
Yes, you thoughtless loser!
I was parking my car. Guksu was standing there.
She arrived just after I did.
You're not even human!
Plus, I looked after Guksu for quite a long time.
How dare you come running here to argue with me?
If you had a conscience...
How could you come here and tell me off?
Stop acting so good because you took him in for a few days.
I'm grateful you took care of him.
But that doesn't qualify you to meet Yejin with Guksu.
How dare you meet Yejin with the boy?
Stop it right now!
Stop it, you hopeless fool!
How hopeless...
- I'm sorry. - Why are you so late?
- Come and sit down. - Yes, sir.
He's the rising star of IBC, Hwang Taebeom.
Yes, I've heard about him.
I researched the backgrounds of the journalists here.
Did you? You're good.
I don't need to introduce you. You're already so famous.
The CEO scouted him personally as the new head of our department.
- Taebeom, be good to him. - Yes.
I'm Gong Jihwan.
I'm Hwang Taebeom.
I'll pour you one.
- Taebeom, let me give you a drink. - Yes.
Taebeom scored a big deal today.
He got the exclusive interview of Lee Manbok.
Taebeom's already scored a few scoops this year.
You're flattering me.
I'm thinking of making him the next anchor.
What do you think?
You researched before coming here, so tell me what you think.
He's good-looking, has good showmanship and is likeable.
I'm not sure about how credible he is as an anchor.
Are you trying to say my stories aren't credible?
Do you think that they are?
The news about the fire in Gayang-dong in July...
You falsely reported the suspect as the victim, did you not?
Was it intentional?
The report about the conscription corruption of Gwon Uhyeok.
You received complaints for editing his manager's interview.
Things got noisy again recently with Baek Jaeun's illicit admission.
You remember your successes, but forget your mistakes easily.
- Hyeonuk, how about a song? - Yes, sir.
Make it exciting.
- Yes, an exciting song... - Good.
His father's the vice-president of Seil Electronics.
His mother's a professor at Kookje College.
One brother's a university doctor, the other is a public prosecutor.
His little sister's a lawyer.
He's on a different level to us. He's like royalty.
It's not just his family. He's really successful too.
He worked at CNN for 5 years. He scored numerous scoops.
He's a living legend.
What if he's really here because of Team Leader Cha?
Look at his eyes. He's so handsome.
- He's really something. - His eyes are sparkling.
- Isn't he handsome? - He is...
Cha Suyeong.
I'm happy to see you again. You're like the spring sunshine.
I didn't turn it off.
It's amazing. Who knew we'd meet like this?
I haven't seen him since I graduated. We lost touch.
Now he's our department head. It really is a small world.
When are you going to throw this out? I told you months ago.
- I'll throw it out. - Don't just say it, do it.
Get rid of all this too.
You should throw trash away. This isn't a junk shop.
Okay, I will. Why are you so touchy?
The general manager even complimented you.
You should make sure your environment's clean.
You can't even see anything with your rear view mirror.
Is it because of Jihwan... Our new department head?
What do you mean by that? What about him?
Just in case he concerns you.
Nothing happened between us.
Us?
I don't care about that. It doesn't bother me.
That's a week old.
Why did your clothes get all wet?
- Something happened. - What happened?
Your clothes wouldn't be that wet unless you got water poured on you.
Just something.
What are you going to do from now on?
Mom.
Mom, please raise Guksu for me.
What?
Yejin came to the hospital today.
I haven't called her recently but she wasn't even angry.
She worried about me. She's an angel.
I can't give up on Yejin.
- Taesik. - Mom, save me this once.
If you raise Guksu for me, I can marry Yejin.
Then you're going to keep Guksu a secret and marry her?
- I don't mean that. - Then what do you mean?
I'll tell her. I will.
She's kind and considerate. Once she hears me out...
She'll be shocked at first but she'll understand.
You just need to raise him for me.
That's just what you think.
How do you know how Yejin feels?
I know, but if you raise him for me, I'll...
I'll take responsibility and convince Yejin.
- Take care of Guksu for me. - Taesik!
How dare you say that?
Don't be ridiculous.
The situation that I'm in right now is ridiculous, dad.
Do you think that the situation I'm stuck in makes any sense?
Are you crazy? What did you say?
Imagine how I must feel to suggest this, dad.
I want to live like a human too.
I want to live a proper life.
If I lose Yejin like this, I think I could die.
Then go and die.
Die if you want to. Your mom's innocent.
- Honey. - Why should she raise your son?
She's not your slave.
She's worked hard all her life to raise the four of you.
She's finally able to rest. You should be good to her as the eldest.
How dare you tell her to raise your son who came out of nowhere?
Please be quiet.
Are you even human? Are you?
This is the only way.
Don't keep scolding me. Think about it from my perspective.
What did you just say?
He's lost his mind now.
- Changsik! - I know I didn't do anything right.
I know this is going against my filial duty to you and mom.
Then just shut your mouth.
If you have a conscience, keep your mouth shut.
Even if you're thoughtless...
How can you suggest that your mom raise him for...
Please be quiet!
I'm mad too. I feel like jumping off a cliff too.
I'm trying to fight back my anger and talk to him.
Why are you getting so worked up and making me even madder?
No, honey...
You're not in the situation to scold Taesik anyway.
This is nothing compared to the trouble you've gotten into.
Am I a slave?
You're the one who has turned me into the slave that I am.
Who's scolding who?
Don't you think this is the result of all your mistakes?
You haven't done anything for him to take after.
And you.
I don't even want to look at you.
Get away from me, you fool!
- Mom. - Of course your dad's mad.
Why do you live such a hopeless life?
You've lived thoughtlessly since the day you were born.
Mother, I'm sorry.
I'm so sick of the Hwang family men.
I'm sick to death with them!
Mister!
Did you pitch this up?
So you're going to live in this tent?
Yes. I won't be allowed inside.
I have to do this to be near Mrs. Hwang.
This tent's really nice too.
I used up all my money to buy this.
The latest one-touch model!
- Here. - What's this?
It's a lucky charm. I made it myself.
I worked hard for 2 days to make this.
So keep it with you always, okay?
Why do the people I trust always betray me?
Mrs. Hwang and you...
The missing written promise and the four duck brothers...
It's so detailed. It must be true.
Yes, it's based on a true story.
What happens next?
- Do they find the written promise? - Yes.
But it would've been better if it hadn't been found. It's a tragedy.
Do you like it?
Thanks.
Yes, alright. Let's do that.
What are you doing on the phone so early?
Someone wants to buy the farm. They want to see it tomorrow.
Really? It's really being sold then.
I was worried as the real estate market hasn't been promising lately...
Jaeun wanted us to sell it quickly. She'll be pleased.
She will. Who wants to buy it?
A film company.
Are you free today, honey?
We have to look into a house.
If you don't have time, I can go alone.
Let's go together. I have to squeeze time, I guess.
If it's a film company, they won't be farming here.
I guess so. Does it upset you?
Mother, let's eat.
Yes, let's eat.
Thank you for the meal.
Guksu's so smart.
He learns things without even being taught.
- Eat up. - Yes, eat up.
Auntie, we're here.
Hey.
- Hello, Hyeonjae. - Yes, hi.
- Taebeom, you're here too. - Yes, congratulations.
- The store's nice and spacious. - Congratulations, auntie.
But we don't have time to stay.
I'm just grateful you came. Thank you.
Where is the manager?
He went to get the leaflets. He'll be here soon.
Your little brother must be talented in sales.
This store's changed a lot since we first saw it.
Don't you agree?
It's too early to tell. They haven't made any sales yet.
I'm back.
Taepil, who are they?
They're my friends. They're going to help with our opening day.
Hello.
Friends? What friends?
Those passing by, please stop where you are.
Enjoy our event before you go.
An impressive breakdance performance. Aren't they good?
Come close and take a look.
Applause!
Enjoy this a little longer.
Turn the music up!
Now, I'll conduct a quiz.
What's the relationship between these two performing here?
If you can guess, there's a prize.
Me! A couple!
Couple? No, that's wrong.
Are they married?
Married? No, they're not.
- Friends. - What was that? Friends?
- Wrong! Sorry. - Colleagues.
Colleagues, no.
- Brother and sister! - Brother and sister?
That's correct. Applause!
- Sir. - Sir.
- Taebeom! - Yes?
Who on earth did you interview?
Didn't you even check before you conducted it?
What do you mean by that?
The man you interviewed wasn't Lee Manbok.
It was his twin brother, Lee Cheonbok.
- Excuse me? - Twin brother?
Didn't it feel strange when you were interviewing him?
For someone who had been in hiding and refusing interviews...
He was really eager. Didn't you notice?
And the final clue was that he said he donated in August instead of September.
Didn't you notice that?
The preview's already gone out. What do we do now?
Jihwan met the real Lee Manbok this morning and interviewed him.
- Show me the footage again. - Okay.
I didn't do anything that special. Why do you keep coming?
I've always been kind-hearted.
I've done so many things to be ashamed of.
I have nothing to tell you.
What would you have done if it weren't for Jihwan?
Suyeong, finish editing this and pass it on.
- Sorry, sir. - I'm sorry.
I'm sorry about this.
Hwang Taebeom, you're in my bad books now.
Do you think you're qualified to be a journalist?
Suyeong, can I see you?
Yes...
We're in the neighborhood.
We'd like to see you and say hello while we're here.
Yes, we'll see you soon.
Yes.
I don't know if we should visit them.
I spoke to Taesik firmly.
If he was the type to tell his parents after speaking to you...
He wouldn't have kept it a secret all this time.
We shouldn't ignore this. We're parents too.
What is this?
It will help you relax. Take it.
Take it before you hear my words.
Yes, take it just in case. Please take it.
I'm really worried.
We took it. Tell us what you have to say.
I discussed this deeply with my husband.
We're both parents too. We believe it's too important not to tell you.
It's very unfortunate that we have to tell you this and you have to listen.
- Honey. - Yes... I'll tell you now.
Your eldest son has a son he's been hiding.
You don't understand?
Your eldest son has a 9-year old son.
They must be too shocked. They must not be able believe it.
I can understand.
You probably can't believe it. But there's something else.
I'm sorry to say this. He's of mixed race.
Are you alright? Can you hear me?
Talk about frustrating.
Sometimes, reality can seem so harsh.
But what can we do? We must live on.
You must be strong and live on.
I hope you can battle this...
Goodness!
Are you talking about Guksu?
Guksu, come here and say hello.
Come over here.
I said no.
Why do I have to advise on the film?
Dongmin knows more about the Kim Jonggi case than I do.
- Same with Detective Jang. - No, you have to do it.
You're more experienced than they are.
I'll remove you from investigations. Think of it as a vacation.
- Team Leader! - I said no!
Don't mention this again.
Come inside, Lieutenant Hwang.
I was shocked to hear that you were coming.
I would've gone to see you.
Please take a seat.
The film company's on the 5th floor. I'm working on the animation here.
I'm going to start official preparations soon.
Do you want a drink? How about milk tea?
It's alright. I came here to tell you something.
Alright.
What is it? Tell me.
I want to finish advising on the film as soon as possible.
There are investigations I have to be on. Let's end it in a few days.
I'll cooperate as best I can.
Alright then.
Then I'll wrap up in a few days...
Where is it?
This is the screenplay that uses the Kim Jonggi case as its motif.
Can you review it for me?
- Let's talk after you've read it. - Yes, alright.
- Is she going to work with you? - Excuse me?
Baek Jaeun? She's going to think about it for another day.
I thought I'd found the owner of this studio at last.
Something must be bothering her.
Do you know that's the first question you've ever asked me?
This is a pleasant surprise.
Is there anything else you want to know?
No, I'll call you once I've read this.
I thought I'd found the owner of this studio at last.
Something must be bothering her.
I'd like to talk to you.
It won't take long.
Listen to me before you go.
Talk then.
I'll do as you want me to.
I won't bother you ever again.
I'm sorry I hurt you and made you feel uncomfortable.
I'd like to apologize.
I'm sorry I was selfish and inconsiderate.
It won't happen again.
I won't stand in front of your door or come to see you.
I know that doing nothing is the best thing right now.
I will try my best to erase the feelings I have for you.
I'm done working with the film company too.
I only need to come here for another day or so.
If you want me to, I can come when you're not here.
After that, we won't bump into each other again like yesterday.
So start working on the animation.
It was something you wanted to do.
Do you still want me to ignore you if I run into you?
If it's alright, I'd like us to be friends and keep in touch.
Okay. I understand.
I understand what you want.
Can you at least look at me as we say our final goodbye?
Take care.
Hello.
Jaeun.
What are you thinking about?
Are you still worried?
You won't regret working with me.
I'll do it.
- Excuse me? - I'll do it.
I want to make my animation.
What is it? Why did you ask us to have lunch suddenly?
Hurry up. I don't have much time.
I told our parents yesterday.
I told them I want to marry Yejin.
I asked them to raise Guksu.
- You mean it? - Yes.
I know it's shameless of me. I'd like you all to help me.
Please help me.
Mom and dad listen to you, Taebeom.
- Taesik! - Yes?
That's wrong. You raise Guksu.
- Taehui. - Guksu's your son.
You should raise him. It's the right thing to do.
I'm holding back my anger as I speak.
I'm holding it back because it's you.
If you had been a stranger or a friend, I'd have thrown a punch already.
My...
My real mother re-married and left home.
So mom and dad had no choice but to...
I'll say it like you did.
Uncle and aunt had to raise me, but it's different for Guksu.
Guksu has a dad. Why should his grandmother raise him?
Do you know how painful and lonely it is to be abandoned by your parents?
You never forget and you live as a loner.
Do you know how it feels to grow up as a family addition?
Do you know how jealous of you all I was when I was young?
Especially Taepil, who exclusively received mom's limitless love.
Do you know how sickeningly jealous I was of that?
Growing up as an addition, this comes naturally to you...
The parental love that's a given for you all,
has always been something I've had to be thankful for and repay.
You naturally become someone who annoyingly acts too old for their age.
You always pretend to be fine, cool, as though you're not lonely...
You pretend to the point you no longer know who you really are...
And end up an emotional retard.
I can't even tell when someone I really like is standing right in front of me!
You raise Guksu.
He's already been abandoned by his mom. Don't scar him with memories...
And make him live a life of pretence like me.
I wasn't okay at all when I was young.
I'm going.
I'll call you.
Did you really feel that way?
We never knew. You were so quiet and grew up well.
I'm proud of you, little brother.
Good job, my brother.
Something's up, isn't it?
Yeah.
I pretended again today.
I pretended I was fine when there's no way I am.
I pretended I'd be okay when there's no way I can be.
I even declared that I would be.
Is this about Jaeun?
Yeah.
It's over.
It never even began really...
Jaeun doesn't want to see me.
How did you get over it after you broke up with Hyeryeong?
Goodness.
Work saved me.
I didn't really get over it. Time just passed.
I didn't think about tomorrow. I only lived for today.
Of course I didn't feel like I was alive.
But I could lead a good life.
And this is what I thought back then...
If I ever love again, I'll love as though the world will end tomorrow.
I won't just exist... I'll be alive.
- How do you feel now? - Now?
Now...
Now... My phone's ringing.
Hyeonuk, it's okay.
Is he home already?
Mom!
I forgot. You told me to drop by earlier.
What's the matter?
What's wrong?
Where did Eunji find her studio?
Somewhere in Gangnam. Why do you ask?
When is she giving you the $20,000? Was it next month?
Yes, when she takes out her installment savings next month.
Mom, if it's okay to get it back slowly...
Cha Suyeong! Since when did you lie to your mother?
I met Eunji by chance at the bookstore.
What? She rented a studio?
She'll pay you next month?
How can you lie without even blinking an eye?
How could you trick me?
- I'm sorry. - Where did you spend it?
Where did you spend the $20,000? Tell me the truth.
Why can't you tell me?
Where's the money you borrowed by selling your friend's name?
Did you give it to Taebeom?
No, mom. I needed it for some other reason.
So tell me!
What did you do with $20,000?
Why did you need it?
Are you going to keep your mouth shut?
You gave it to Taebeom, didn't you?
I heard his family's moving. Did he ask you for money?
Tell me!
It's not like that. Taebeom has nothing to do with it.
I lent it to a colleague. They said it was urgent.
I just told you it's Eunji because you don't know them.
Mom...
Call them and confirm it.
I don't trust you anymore, so call them right now.
Mom, can't you just let it go if I'm being like this?
Do you really think I would've just wasted it?
Taebeom...
- Yes, it's Kim Jeha. - This is Hwang Taehui.
I'd like to wrap up today. Can I visit you now?
Have you read it already? Okay, come over.
Yes, I'll go there now.
You're going to meet Producer Kim at this hour?
Yes, I want to finish it quick. I'll be back.
He went out for a little while. He'll be back soon.
What would you like to drink?
It's alright. Don't worry about me.
I'm sorry, Lieutenant Hwang. Someone came to see me.
Have you eaten? If not, there's a nice...
What's going on here?
Do you recognize her?
I hoped you wouldn't find out until after you'd advised me.
Who are you?
As you suspect, the woman in the photo...
The woman who gave birth to you, Oh Yujin...
I'm her son.
The man she re-married 24 years ago, is my father.
That makes me your older brother.
I wanted to meet you.
I was very curious about you.
Listen up, Kim Jeha.
Only Hwang Taesik and Hwang Taebeom are my older brothers.
Sometimes, my anger gage gets faulty...
So don't ever show up in front of me again.
This is my last rational warning to you.
