Episode 15
Hello, Ms. Oh.
This is Jiwan.
By any chance,
have you talked to my mother today?
No.
My mother...
Hasn't come home yet.
Please don't leave...
Mom.
Mother.
I'm sorry.
Please don't leave...
Come home with me.
Why would you cry? You're breaking my heart.
Your call is being forwarded to...
Eunsu doesn't know anything yet, right?
No.
I don't want Eunsu to ever find out.
I don't want Eunsu to go through what I did.
Eunsu is my little sister.
We ate together, we fought and laughed,
we went through the worst of times
and the best of times together.
Even though I know we're not related by blood,
Eunsu
is and always will be my lovable little sister.
I'm sorry, mother.
It took me a long time
to realize that simple fact.
Don't be sorry, Jiwan.
You don't need to be...
Thank you.
Don't say that, mother.
Thank you for raising me and Eunsu.
Oh, you're giving me a headache. Sit down.
Mom, should I go out and look for her?
Don't.
It's better to stay home and wait.
She might come home when we're out looking.
I'm sure she hasn't had dinner,
so why don't you make something?
Mom!
Why are you out here? It's dark.
Because I was worried about you.
I'm fine.
Don't worry.
Are you sure?
You're really okay?
Of course I'm okay. Honest.
Seonhui.
Seonhui, I'm glad you left them.
You'll fine another job.
You're a hard worker, and you're kind.
You have everything.
Everyone's dying to hire you, I bet.
I'm okay, Haengsuk.
I'm home, mother.
Look what kind of ruckus you've caused!
As if anything good has happened!
Haengsuk, what are you waiting for?
Where's the food? Where's dinner?
I'll go make it, mother.
No, don't.
Watching you cook looking so unhappy
will give me a headache.
Oh, I told you to get some beef out
and thaw some fish long ago,
and you're doing it now?
Geez!
You can't do anything right!
Mom, go and get changed.
I'll set the table.
Okay.
Thanks, Eunsu.
Oh, you're doing everything wrong.
I never do anything right, do I?
You never tried hard enough!
Grandma, please stop.
But I always try so hard.
You're all talk!
Jiwan.
Mom's all right, isn't she?
Don't worry about her.
She'll be fine.
I'm glad.
Get some rest.
Eunsu.
Yeah?
How's your contest portfolio coming along?
Is there anything I can help you with?
What?
You don't believe in your little sister?
You know I do.
Tell me if you need anything.
I'll get them for you.
Whatever.
Mr. Jang's not the only one
who makes empty promises.
Hey, how could you say such a thing?
Jiwan.
Yes.
- Mr. Yun. - Yes.
What's Hyeondo doing right now?
Why is he working so hard?
He wants to become the project manager
and get the bonus.
I'm sure he's not doing it for the money.
Oh, why is this so hard!
What? What's hard?
You want my help?
I'm going to R&D.
I'm going to find out if my idea is doable.
R&D? Okay. Go and ask away.
Where is R&D?
Thanks. I've been wanting to visit R&D, too.
Everything I do sets a good precedence.
How's your family doing?
After that night, they love me, don't they?
They became my fans after seeing me resolve
everything at the police station, didn't they?
Fans? Not really.
Then what are they?
They still hate me?
Not really.
Then what is it?
Okay, let's make it simple.
Let's say I got 50 points before.
What did I get after the police station incident?
50 points.
Nothing changed, nothing.
It'll get better.
But how long do I have to hide this?
I don't feel comfortable lying to them.
Give me some time.
Let me earn some points with them.
And when will you do that?
Soon, real soon.
Soon? I doubt that.
What? What did you say?
It doesn't seem realistic.
It makes no sense.
How could you feel grateful in that situation?
There was violence! She should be scared.
She can't?
The character isn't a violent person.
This is too out of the blue.
But a man in a suit in a fight
can be so attractive to a woman.
It's a different side of the person.
The wild and untamed side coming out.
Hey!
The man you have a crush on fought
against 17 men and won wearing a suit?
No, it was against four men...
We're talking about my male lead.
Let me carry them.
What if it gets worse?
I doubt it was that bad.
You're not taking the bandage off?
It doesn't bother you?
It's still healing.
And I'm not bothered by it.
Didn't you say they were coming off last week?
Juri, you heard wrong.
No, I'm sure I heard correctly.
Jiwan, we're meeting with R&D at 2 o'clock.
Is everything ready?
I need to make corrections and I forgot.
You forgot?
Can you do it before the meeting?
Of course.
Don't give R&D any excuse to make complaints.
I won't.
Something's not right.
Let me have yours too.
It's okay.
What are you doing?
You said the loan would be approved!
How can you do this to us?
You have bad credit because
of your bankruptcy two years ago.
I'm sorry. We weren't able to verify that part.
You didn't even check that
and assured me of the loan?
I want to see the person in charge!
I am the person in charge.
Not you! The real person in charge!
Do you have something against me?
Why didn't you check the CEO's credit score?
- Well... - Why didn't you check it?
How much money did you get from them?
How much did you get
to promise them of a loan?
If this is too much, you should quit!
Why did you drag me into this!
Actually,
I didn't get anything from them.
Are you saying this was a simple mistake?
If that's how you work, quit!
Who cares if you get big loan contracts?
It's like you're playing with fire!
Excuse me, Mr. Jang,
the executive director wants to see you.
Brace yourselves.
You won't get away with this.
I guess we got lucky.
They were able to stop it
before the loan was approved.
We'll probably only get a warning.
What happened to me at the branch
has happened again here.
We'll fix it with a bigger loan.
I've been to all of my old acquaintances.
Old acquaintances?
I have no more left.
I should check with people I know
to see if they need to get a loan.
Dad.
Why are you eating noodles alone?
Where's mom?
I'm not sure.
She must be busy.
I knew it wouldn't last.
Mom was unusually good to you.
Don't say that. I actually like eating this.
I've been craving for this for a while.
Why didn't you get some kimchi?
Would you like some?
I'd love some.
What?
Our fridge is empty!
What's mom been up to lately?
She's an awful housewife.
Oh, no.
No...
This is bad.
Wait a minute.
No!
What do I do?
Oh, no!
No, no!
Hot! Ouch!
What do I do?
Why is this so hard?
What the heck is going on here?
Hi.
You said you were great at this,
so what's going on here?
There's water everywhere.
If you slip, you'd get seriously hurt!
And why didn't you turn the water off?
Is this how you run your household?
And this cloth,
if you keep it wet like this, it'll get moldy!
It'll smell!
Sorry.
I'm not used to making Western food.
But I'm a quick learner,
so I'll get good at it quickly.
I hired you because I wanted to be considerate,
but this isn't working out.
I shouldn't have hired just anyone.
Right. I'll work hard and make you happy.
Don't worry.
I'll be watching you.
I won't go easy on you because we're friends.
And look at that! They are all burnt!
I don't believe this.
It's President Jang.
But it's Sunday.
President Jang, hello.
It's okay.
I just need to do something upstairs.
Library
Account Book, Taehu Industry
What's this?
These are all copies.
Where are the originals?
Those were the only
Taehu Industry related documents.
Does that mean there are only copies remain
or the originals are somewhere else?
Taehu Industry
What's that?
I think these are dad's company documents.
There's an old account book, too.
Should I store them somewhere?
Throw them away.
Who would need them?
The sunlight is so warm today.
A day like today is perfect for hanging laundry.
Get our blankets and hang them.
I've already done that.
They are already being hung to dry.
Seonhui, is it going to take longer?
It's almost done, mother.
I'm finishing making the noodles.
Taehu Industry
It's a relief.
I have insurance I can use against her.
Eat up.
Jiwan, you did all the hard work.
You worked a lot, so eat up.
Grandma, does that mean I shouldn't eat?
Oh, you're a great help, so you must eat.
Thank you.
It's been so long
since the last time we had lunch together.
It's because you're so busy.
After you started working,
you work on Saturdays and Sundays, too.
Are you still that busy?
We're working on a new product,
so we're busy.
If you're good, you get more work.
Be diligent and do your best.
Think of it as a learning experience.
I will.
Here come the noodles.
Here's the broth.
Give that to me.
Tada.
Mom, this is yours.
You should give Jiwan his first.
- Eat this. - Grandma, you first.
President Jang Taesu
Who's next? Mom.
You didn't tell your family about Eunsu yet?
How long are you going to deceive them?
Fine.
I'll send my driver tomorrow,
so come with your mother.
If you can't tell her yourself,
I will tell her myself.
You're going to tell my mother?
Yes, I will see you tomorrow.
Taesu, hold on.
Mother, is something bothering you?
Is it about Eunsu?
The fact that you told me about Eunsu
so out of the blue has been bothering me.
Something's happened concerning Eunsu, right?
Jiwan.
Please tell me, mother.
Eunsu is your daughter, but she's also my sister.
No! I'm not meeting them!
Don't you remember the deal we made?
You promised to go on matchmaking dates.
That deal was broken when you handed
my car and my credit card over to father.
But you promised...
You're keeping the deal you made with father
but not the deal you made with me?
Isn't that convenient?
Your line of thinking is very simple.
How dare you say that to me, your own mom!
You have to meet them.
You better!
I'm going to cover the walls of your room and
this living room with photos of potential dates!
Wow! Your line of thinking really is simple!
You're using the same method I used.
Let him marry whomever he wants.
For the first time since taking my car away,
you're saying something I actually like.
Madam Jeong Sugyeong,
speaking from experience,
the woman you're comfortable with is the best.
You're right.
So?
What did you lose by being with
a woman who makes you uncomfortable?
Unbelievable.
You think things were comfortable for me?
We were both uncomfortable,
so we're a match made in heaven.
But why not let Hyeondo find
someone he's comfortable with?
You're right.
Goodnight, father.
How odd.
You seem happy.
Are you signing a contract tomorrow?
Yes.
You must have a big advantage.
Big advantage.
Yes, I have one.
Big enough to compensate for my Achilles heel.
You keep talking about weaknesses.
After tomorrow, it'll all be over.
Tomorrow, my opponent will have to sign
the contract I give them, no matter what,
without realizing how big the deal is.
It must be a huge deal.
It's huge. Really huge.
Financial Statements
Come in.
It's five minutes to the general meeting.
Wait a minute.
I haven't gotten the seal on
Kim Jiwan's share transfer form.
But we need that.
He's the eldest son of President Kim Sangjun.
Wait,
Kim Jiwan's legal guardian is Ms. Han Seonhui?
You can't! What if something happens?
The company's at the verge of bankruptcy.
There's no money to give or receive,
so who cares about a document like this?
But such hasty decisions like that
always causes trouble later on.
You have to get her to stamp it later.
Okay.
I got it, so let's go.
Because of that stamp
I didn't get over 20 years ago,
I could end up losing my shares now?
Hello, mother. This is Taesu.
I'm near the restaurant we had lunch together
the last time, and I was wondering
if you'd like to join me for lunch again.
Oh, you're home now?
No, if you came now, I'd be late to my meeting.
Why don't I call you again next time?
Yes. Goodbye.
She hasn't told her yet.
Jiwan, why are you...
Why don't you have a seat?
I'm supposed to have lunch with your mother.
So what are you doing here?
I heard.
I came in my mother's place.
In Seonhui's place?
Yes.
My mother told me everything.
Thank you.
I had no idea you cared
so much about my family.
I heard you and my father were like brothers,
but I didn't expect you to
feel the same way about him
25 years after his death.
I can't ignore Sangjun's family issues.
So, how much did your mother tell you?
Did she tell you about Eunsu?
Yes.
I heard you know Eunsu isn't my real sister.
Yes, I do know that.
Does your grandmother know about it?
No, not yet.
How long do you plan on deceiving her?
I want Eunsu and grandmother to
stay ignorant of the fact.
You think that's possible?
Wouldn't you feel guilty
for deceiving your grandmother?
Lying to her when she thinks
Eunsu's her granddaughter,
is like betraying your own father.
Tell her.
I'm not saying this as your father's friend.
I'm saying it in your father's place.
Mr. Jang.
May I address you as
my father's friend, not as President Jang?
Sure.
I'll treat you as my friend's son,
not as your boss.
I don't know much about my father.
So I want to ask you.
Go ahead.
If my father were still alive,
what would he have done?
If your father were still alive...
Yes.
He would've made the same choice as you.
Thank you, Mr. Jang.
You should go back to your office.
Your lunch hour will be over soon.
I still have a bit of time.
What is it?
I'm just happy.
Because I'm so happy.
I can't believe how grown up you are.
I'm marveled and happy.
I didn't expect you'd be able to
convince Mr. Jang Taesu.
He's an amazing man.
And he is wise beyond my imagination.
So you respect him?
I'm proud a man like him
was my father's friend.
I feel reassured knowing he'll be there for us.
If my father were still alive,
what would he have done?
You were my father's friend, so you must know.
What would my father have done?
What an intriguing boy...
He looks so naive,
but he knows how to defeat you.
It's okay.
It's okay, Jang Taesu.
There's no evidence to be found, not one trace.
There's nothing left.
Taehu Industry...
That sounds familiar.
I think his last name is Jang,
but I don't remember his name.
I think he was a director before,
but anyway, I met him recently,
and he looked very successful.
He left in a car with his own driver,
and he seemed very powerful.
Don't you remember anything?
Well, I don't remember anything.
Why don't you visit the bank's warehouse?
Warehouse?
It's been over 20 years.
Don't you think all the documents are gone?
It has been a bit too long.
Why don't you ask Mr. Kim in General Affairs?
He must know.
I'm sorry to be calling so late.
I didn't know who else to ask.
Our bank has a document warehouse?
No, it's nothing.
I need to see someone about a loan,
but I don't remember his name.
There is?
Even when it's from over 20 years ago?
Yes, Taehu Industry.
Account Book
Income statement
What's this?
Taehu Industry's account book?
Yes.
Where did you find this?
I found it when we did the spring cleaning.
There's nothing left of father,
so I didn't want to throw that away.
I haven't seen this in a long time.
The logo brings back memories.
I thought I could learn something from it.
Aren't you too busy to look at this?
Come to think of it, I remember
Mr. Lee Seokjin, your director,
making entries in the book a few times.
- You do? - Yes.
So when he said there was money,
I felt concerned.
Maybe I should see him again and ask him.
He was assigned to an overseas branch.
Overseas branch?
He told me to call him if anything happened.
He did?
Why does your family hate me so much?
Why do they? Why!
You're spitting on me.
You really don't know what you did?
They hate you because you're flippant.
What did I ever do to them? What?
I took them out to eat and bought that gift...
Yes, things didn't turn out so well.
But I stayed at the police station
and resolved everything.
Did you forget why we ended up there?
Kim Jiwan!
But you started everything!
Talk about being an ingrate!
Because there's nothing to be grateful about.
How much is it?
It's ten dollars.
You're not going to eat anymore, are you?
Wait.
Are you thinking
my family went bankrupt or something?
I never thought such a thing.
You feel sorry for me. You do!
Don't feel sorry for me just because
my car and my credit cards are gone.
The spicy rice cakes?
I'll pay you back tenfold.
Usually, when I take a girl out, I pay for...
Pay for what?
You mean the revolving door of women
who changed monthly?
Well, it wasn't every month.
- I'm going home. - Hey!
Hey!
Here.
What's wrong with you and your family?
What is it this time?
When you see me,
do you get an urge to give me something?
You feel sorry for me?
You buy me drinks, give me money, and...
What's your problem?
Did you forget?
That my dad owns this company?
Does that get deleted whenever you see me?
Deleted?
It doesn't. Why? Should I delete it?
I said don't.
What's the problem?
I've never seen you speechless before.
Is it serious?
It's not serious...
I'm just sad I can't do anything
because I have no money or a car.
For whom?
Someone.
I don't know.
I hope your feelings for her are true this time.
It's not like that.
Don't say that.
If your feelings for her are true, show her.
If they aren't, show her that, too.
What's so hard about that?
Nuga Global In-company Contest Enter the Nuga Global in-company design contest
Where did you get this?
I check for new contests every day,
but I've never seen this.
Of course you can't find this online.
It's an in-company contest.
Don't you have to work there to enter?
Look at the bottom. Anyone may enter.
It says it right here.
You're right.
Oh, the prize is amazing.
If you win, you can get mentoring
and participate in the future project.
This is incredible.
Happy?
Of course I'm happy.
You only did good-for-nothing things.
This is new.
You're not around enough to see,
but I'm a very useful person.
Scene 25, the love confession scene!
Yes!
Right here!
It'll happen right here.
A canary-like woman confesses her love
for the man who's as solid as a rock.
Right here?
Yes.
And after that, the man jumps over,
expressing his despair.
Yes, yes!
That!
That was the image I had in my mind.
Our drama will come out totally literary.
You feel like rewriting, don't you?
Yes, I do.
I think I can do it right this time.
Ms. Kang, you can do it!
I can do it!
Ebadom Restaurant
There's no competition around,
and there's a lot of traffic here,
so the location is prime.
What?
The terms are very good.
You've won the Best Employee Award
three years in a row.
And that's why we're offering you this.
Still, this is too good to be true.
Come to my branch.
I'll hire you as the manager.
I'm not sure.
I'm very grateful, but it's so sudden.
You shouldn't be grateful.
We're asking you for a favor
because you're very reliable.
Because this is unprecedented,
she seems very cautious.
She's hesitating,
but I'm sure she'll take the position.
She's a very cautious person.
Still, keep an eye on her just in case.
But don't pressure her.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Jang Hyeondo
You're not a kid. Why do you eat this?
What's wrong with this?
Don't you know ice cream
makes people feel happy?
Happy? It's making my teeth ache.
When I was little,
my brother used to buy me ice cream
when I got exhausted from playing too hard.
He said ice cream gave you energy.
Maybe that's why, but even now,
when I eat ice cream after work, I get energy.
Oh, Kim Jiwan is great with words,
so he doesn't have to spend that much money.
Ice cream is cheap!
You think everything is about money, right?
Sometimes a bite of ice cream can
make you feel better than a stack of money.
What nonsense are you talking about?
How can you compare ice cream to money?
You're impossible to talk to.
Wait!
I'm getting paid tomorrow.
So?
Wait until I get paid.
I'll buy you a box of this ice cream.
You won't ever have to
feel exhausted anymore.
Funny. As if you can afford to!
It seems your borrowing money from everyone.
Shouldn't you pay them back first?
I know.
I owe my mom $300, and...
I won't even get to use any of it.
How can you owe more money than you make?
You're not a very capable man, are you?
That's not true.
But don't worry.
I'll set aside money to buy you ice cream.
What do you want to do? To eat? To have?
Tell me.
You're the type to do as the woman asks?
As you did for all the women you dated before?
Why would you even go there?
Hey!
You don't meet Sangjun's mother anymore?
She's beneath me.
Why do you keep asking?
But she's Sangjun's mother.
Don't cut her off like that
and visit her sometimes.
For old times' sake.
Why?
Is there a reason why we must stay in touch?
There isn't. Why would there be?
You're hiding something from me
about that family, aren't you?
You're jumping to conclusions again.
Jang Taesu, he's hiding something,
but he won't tell me.
Then I'll find out. It won't be hard.
Hello, mother.
I'm sorry I haven't been in touch lately.
Is something up?
Is there a good opera or something?
Seriously?
Mom!
Why don't you come over for lunch tomorrow?
- Haengsuk? - Mom!
Take those photos down!
Can't you see I'm on the phone?
If you want me to go on blind dates,
give me back my car and my credit card!
I won't let you do this!
You and dad are con artists!
Get out of here!
I gave you back your card!
The bus card?
Have you ever used it before?
You can cover my walls. I'm not meeting them!
So that's that!
Give me back my credit card!
Be quiet!
Sugyeong has a problem child, doesn't she?
Oh, boy.
What is it, grandma?
The coworker jerk who framed your brother,
he was screaming at his mom
for his car and his credit card.
He must be a total weirdo.
How could he do that to his own mom?
I know.
He must be a complete loser.
We got paid, everyone!
We got paid!
Wow! We got paid!
How much did I get?
This is it?
How much did you get?
That's the right amount.
Talk about stealing from the poor!
She took $300 from me!
$300?
How am I supposed to survive on this?
People, let's go on a strike!
Let's go on a strike!
Hyeondo, you shouldn't say that.
They pay us pennies,
and they take taxes and pension,
without considering the inflation rate.
Let's get together
and go on a strike and demand a pay raise.
You're the company owner's son, remember?
You are all just amazing.
You've been living off of this measly amount?
Why is everyone glaring at me?
- Did I say something wrong? - Yup.
It finally feels like you're working
now that you got paid, huh?
Yes.
It's a weird sensation.
Don't worry about it.
Excuse me?
Don't worry about how they say
you should take your immediate boss
to dinner when you get your first paycheck.
I was going to ask you.
Do you have plans tonight?
Everyone in Marketing goes out on payday.
- What? - I have to work overtime tomorrow.
I'm free the day after tomorrow.
I don't want you to pay, so we'll go dutch.
I make more money than you.
Yes, Ms. Seo.
I got paid.
Come out. What would you like to eat?
I'll pay you back tenfold for the spicy rice cakes.
I got invited to lunch with my grandma.
Where's your grandma
taking you all night long?
Where are you going?
Eunsu, hurry up!
This house is amazing.
What you don't know is that
my house is better.
I wish I could live here just for a day.
You want to live at my house?
No thanks.
I should take some photos.
I think it'll help me with my design.
Bye.
Why don't you send me the photo?
So I can tell you how it is.
It looks just like my house.
This is my house!
No, it's nothing. I didn't do anything wrong.
I didn't deceive them on purpose.
It's okay for them to find out...
I'm going to cover the walls
with the women's photos.
Oh, my god!
Oh, my god! Mom!
My mom's going to ruin me!
Mom!
I'm in a hurry.
Please come to my office right now!
What is it?
I'm having guests.
Who's more important?
Your guests or your son?
It's urgent, so please come! Hurry!
What's wrong with you?
Okay, I got it. Bye. I'm coming.
Oh, boy.
My!
Mother, you're here.
Yes.
- Eunsu, you're here, too? - Eunsu's here.
Hello.
You know what, mother?
Can you have some tea and wait?
Something urgent came up.
I just need 30 minutes,
so why don't you look around
and have some tea?
- Okay. - Excuse me.
- Okay. - May I look around?
Of course. Go right ahead.
- Excuse me, mother. - Okay.
What?
Photos?
Yes, photos!
The women's photos in the living room!
Please take all of them down!
Sir, I'll pay for any traffic tickets,
so please step on it!
This house is amazing, grandma.
It is, isn't it?
Maybe it's because this is my second visit,
but the decoration seems a bit old-fashioned.
Sugyeong has no style.
She has better style than you.
Mom!
You dropped this.
Excuse me?
Thank you.
Ma'am, what about the second floor photos?
You have to take them down, too!
What? The second floor?
May I go up to the second floor?
No!
Wasn't that Hyeondo?
Shouldn't he be at his office? Why is he here?
What's going on?
Mr. Park, turn the car around.
How dumb!
It's okay.
I'm okay!
Why does her son have
women's pictures everywhere...
Darn it.
Man!
Take those photos down...
Man!
Ouch.
Man...
It's not what it looks like...
- A thief! - A thief!
It's not what it looks like. I swear.
It's not like that.
I told you, it's not what it looks like.
I'm not a thief. I'm their son.
Call the police!
We'll get the blame!
Yes! Call 411!
- No! - It's not 411!
Don't!
Where's Eunsu?
Oh, my! He followed Eunsu here!
Yes! I knew he was eyeing Eunsu!
- Wait! - You!
Where do you think you're going!
Oh!
Just who do you think you are!
Because of you, my grandchildren
ended up at the police station!
But Jiwan punched them first!
And you framed Jiwan at work!
You deserve a beating!
Wait!
- Help! - You jerk!
Grandma!
What do you think you're doing!
Your darling eldest grandson
was humiliated at the office today.
Kim Jiwan! Run!
Are you saying you slapped my Jiwan?
Who is Taesu's son?
That jerk.
The co-worker who took money from Jiwan.
Hyeondo wanted to tell you himself,
so I couldn't say anything.
Why do you look so sad?
Did something bad happen?
This person couldn't keep his eyes of someone,
and it made me feel sad.
Where did our desks go?
Yes, his name was Jang Taesu.
I did a lot for that man back then...
Records from Taehu Industry?
You asked to see me for that?
We did find something while cleaning before.
