Episode 4
I think you have to meet me at the police station.
Ji-eun was involved in a car accident, and the other party won't settle.
I'm leaving now. Alright.
Settle with her.
As you can see, she's pregnant...
This wasn't a mistake.
She purposely got drunk and ran into my car. Why should I settle?
I need medical attention as well.
Please take care of this.
Sister-in-law!
Brother, the victim isn't willing to settle. Please help us.
Really?
Excuse me, our lawyer has arrived.
Honey.
Yea...
What happened?
Why did you come here!
Did you speak with the victim?
About that...
I apologize.
Are you badly hurt?
I'm so sorry.
My sister had a bad day and made a mistake.
- Honey. - Please be understanding.
I beg of you. She's expecting any day now.
Dong-joon.
Take your sister and wait over there.
I'll talk to her.
I didn't know they were your family.
Don't worry. I'll settle with you.
What?
Thank you!
Thank you very much!
This must be fate. This is what I do.
Please contact me if you ever need anything.
We've dodged one, Honey!
Hurry up!
Slow down.
Honey.
Let me introduce you.
This is my client.
Ah...
I see.
How are you?
He was my school alumni.
I'm grateful for his help.
He's been coming home late because of me, hasn't he?
I'm sorry.
Not at all.
It's work, after all.
Anyways, thank you very much.
I'm in your debt.
I hope my husband can repay you.
So she's the daughter of the Tae-gang Group?
I thought something was different about her.
Shut up. Be quiet.
I thought she got beaten up, but her face looks fine.
- How can you say that right now? - What of it?
My heart is still racing.
How can you drink and drive while pregnant?
What if something happened to your baby?
I'm looking forward to Mom's lectures.
So I don't need to hear this from you.
Don't let Mom find out about this.
I'm sorry about this.
Take her and go on home.
But he's still over there...
Man, what a nice car.
If we had to pay for those damages, we'd spend the night in jail.
How can we afford that?
What a nice car.
What are you looking at?
So you're really not hurt?
Why can't I get a hold of you?
Are you avoiding me?
I was busy.
Maybe you didn't want to associate yourself with my case anymore?
I didn't hear anything from the other party.
Dong-joon.
Are you my lawyer?
That man told all of the executives about the secret fund.
It's over.
When was this?
When you were avoiding my calls.
This might be a good thing.
It means he's willing to give up on the $30 million.
We're one step closer to a settlement.
He's desperate right now.
I have my suspicions, but...
Anyways, thanks for helping out despite your situation.
I can do anything for you.
If it's for you, I'll do anything.
You and I are different, aren't we?
Grandma, you'll tire yourself. Stop working.
Then your mother will have to do it when she gets back.
I can do it now.
Can't you just read with me?
It won't take long, so wait a bit.
When you do the ironing, Mom hates it.
Why would she?
I'm doing the work for her.
She says that you iron the wrong creases, and that she has to do it over.
Your mother says that?
I heard her last time.
I'll do a good job this time.
Alright.
I wonder if Dong-joon knows that his wife is concerned for him...
...down to the crease line.
I'll stop ironing.
We should show her our gratitude.
She's not expecting anything.
Don't feel like you owe her.
Were you a bit embarrassed today?
She must think your in-laws are a mess.
I didn't have the chance to get changed.
Who knew that I would meet anyone we know there?
Why are you concerned about that?
Given your sister's condition.
I have nothing to say.
You even bought them a plane ticket the other day. I'm disappointed.
It'll all work out.
It's okay.
But, Honey?
About my Mom...
I know.
Let's go up.
One moment.
Thank you.
Hello.
- Ah, yes. Hello. - Honey, this man lives across from us.
How are you?
These little guys were frozen.
I couldn't bring myself to throw them away.
Dad!
Da-yool!
- How are you? - Mom.
- How are you Mother? - Yea, you two are returning together?
We had an errand to take care of.
But you went out looking like that?
We're late, aren't we? Let's go, I'll drive you home.
It's fine. I'm two bus stops away.
- Da-yool, I'm off now. - Goodbye!
Thanks to Da-yool, I didn't even have to do any work.
Huh?
I kept Grandma from ironing the wrong creases.
What?
You have a million dollar girl there.
Yes, Mother.
- I'll be going. - Bye, Mom.
- Bye Da-yool. - Be safe.
Thank you, Mom.
I'm sure Ha-eun told you, but lecture Se-chan when you meet him.
Yes.
I really need you to talk to him.
And stop loaning him money.
I'll take care of it.
He'll keep depending on your good nature if you keep letting him.
You've done enough for him.
Nobody can say anything to you.
How much have you given him already?
Right?
I did help him a bit, didn't I?
But Mother. It's the least I could do as the older in-law.
How can the two of you be so different?
I wish I could mix you two up and divide you in two.
Once the child arrives, they'll straighten out by themselves.
Since Da-yool was born, she's all I think of day or night.
Right?
You think so?
Of course.
Aren't you going to sleep?
I can't sleep.
It would be odd if you could.
Why are you so abrasive?
You could have taken care of this sooner.
But you didn't.
Why do you and Hyun-ji seem to think that Tae-gang group belongs to me?
You are the Chairman, not some common employee.
Don't you have any authority?
Maybe if she wasn't my daughter.
How can the Chairman cover up his daughter's misdeeds
and proceed to promote her?
I've heard enough about that.
You've made me well aware.
Where are you going so late at night?
I'm not going far.
To wait for Hyun-ji?
Leave it to the manager.
It's not the same as her mother.
Go to sleep without me if you're tired.
Hyun-ji.
When did you arrive? What are you doing?
Try to understand your father.
You know how things are at the company.
Don't rush things... take it slow.
Everyone makes mistakes.
You'll have a chance to make it up.
My only mistake was to leave that money with Sae-hoon Kang.
There were no other mistakes.
So stop talking about mistakes and failures.
Hyun-ji.
I'm trying to build strength for business, and there's something wrong with that?
I'm different than Father.
A democratic company?
How long do you think the company's going to last like that?
What's the use if you get hurt in the process?
You know what really hurts?
Falling even lower from here.
Being branded as a failure.
Why are you being so stubborn?
You'll destroy yourself.
Who cares if it hurts a little?
I want to succeed.
I want to show the world that I'm not worthless.
So stop telling me to back down.
I'll succeed, no matter what it takes.
I'll have it all.
I can do anything for you.
If it's for you, I'll do anything.
You and I are different, aren't we?
I wish I was a powerful person, Da-yool.
I want to help out your Auntie, and support your Dad.
I wish I could tell others to depend on me.
I'm running as fast as I can, but it's not enough.
Let's go inside.
Huh?
Who's that?
What's the matter with him?
Mom, where are you going?
Da-yool, go on without me.
It's an emergency.
What do you think you're doing?
How are you?
Forget the greetings, why are you snooping around my kimchi jars?
So this belongs to you?
Goodness...
Why are you keeping the lid off for so long?
Don't you know that kimchi hates oxygen?
And why do you snoop around other people's jars without their permission?
I had doubts that I would find kimchi, but I was surprised that I did.
What kind of kimchi is this?
You didn't touch any of my kimchi, did you?
No, of course not.
But I'd love to try some if you'd give me.
Never... touch my jars, ever again.
Don't even look at them!
Are you coming out?
What a weirdo!
How long did he open it for?
Yea, Mom.
Hey, Ji-eun left to have her baby.
Baby? Already?
She was struggling all night, and she just left for the hospital.
Yea, alright.
I'll be there after walking Da-yool to school.
Yes.
Baby?
Younger cousin!
Oh my!
Things not going your way?
Let me ask you one thing.
If a client starts to have personal feelings for you,
should you continue to work for her?
Something smells fishy.
- Is the client a woman? - Just answer me.
You get clients you like and clients you want to beat down.
I'm sure it's the same from the clients' perspective.
You'd never have any work if you do.
It's nonsense.
Right?
I couldn't do that.
But it's only been 6 months!
Why is that so important?
Sir.
Cut!
Who are you?
Mr. Sae-hoon Kang.
People are already talking about the news, and you show up?
I went to your management first.
But, everyone seemed to be furiously on the phones.
I'm guessing it's not really working well for you?
How's Hong Kong?
Why you rotten...
According to the locals, there are no signs and the office is empty.
Did they move somewhere?
To the Swiss, or perhaps Singapore?
I don't expect you to answer.
Where could you move a company that doesn't exist?
What are you getting at?
Are you trying to ruin me?
You know what you did involving a non-existent company.
You must have shuffled to get rid of your paper company.
If this gets out, your career is over for good.
Don't you know that?
What do you want?
Are you leaving for lunch, Director?
I'm fine.
Any word on the approval documents?
Not yet.
Don't mind me and go have lunch.
Yes.
I have some documents to give you. Do you have time?
Now is good. What's going on?
We'll talk when we meet.
Where should we meet?
I'd be thankful if you could come here.
Then I'll be there in thirty.
Please let her in.
Yes, you've come to meet me?
Are you Dong-joon Im?
I'm Hyun-ji Park's mother.
Ah...
- How are you? - I didn't contact you beforehand.
- I apologize. - No. Not at all.
I would like to have a word with you if you have the time.
Yes. Let's do.
It's cold.
- Stop being childish... - Ji-eun!
I thought you'd still be in the delivery room, but you already had your baby?
Already?
I was hurting all night.
All mothers go through that!
Don't you think I went through the same with you two?
Mom.
Good job, Sis.
Congratulations. You're a mother now.
All of the staff members are talking right now.
They're saying that they've never seen such a pretty and smart baby before.
Of course.
Just look at her mother and father!
I have no more worries.
After a smart, pretty daughter, what more could I want?
Think of how you're going to raise her, not how you're going to depend on her.
I think Mother's just jealous. Right?
Stop it. Mom doesn't want to hear it.
Hasn't becoming a mother changed you?
But I have to admit, it is a pretty baby.
I want to see too!
- When can we see her? - I took a picture... see here.
Se-chan. Se-chan!
Go back to the store.
How many times do I have to tell you that a stranger is watching the store?
I thought the vegetable vendor is watching the store?
I should stay near my wife.
Go back.
Mom, you too.
I'm so stressed out, so leave me alone.
So you can claim for years that I wasn't by your side during your child's birth?
Mom, Mom...
I'll go watch the store.
You stay by Ji-eun.
So he abandons our office to tend to another store?
You know he can't refuse a favor.
Why am I the only one who's busy?
Yes. You've reached Ha-neul Farm Vegetables.
The boss isn't in at the moment.
That completes the order?
Yes, plenty of red beans.
Is there anything else you need?
Yes, it's on the way.
Thank you.
Welcome.
- Do you buy rice cakes from here? - What are you doing in this store?
The owner here asked that I watch the place because of an emergency.
I have the price list here, so take what you need.
You can be on your way now.
Go on, this is my Mom's store.
Hey, Tae-kyung Shin.
What are you doing here?
Mr. Choi from Samil Agriculture is threatening to withdraw.
Why all of a sudden?
We store away cabbages without any start to the business...
What investor would stick around?
They've been patient as it is.
Let's go. Let's talk to them.
Hey, you have to do this right this time.
We need to sign with the kimchi factory.
We need that contract to buy us some more time!
Let's go.
Sorry for the commotion. If you'd excuse me.
Kimchi factory,
- That stubborn... - Goodbye!
So 904 was the vegetable store owner?
Oh no!
I forgot to apologize again!
Hyun-ji didn't want me to meet you, so I couldn't call in advance.
But I was curious, and I wanted to hear about your plans.
Of course you'd be curious.
You've come to the right place.
How's the situation at the moment?
I wanted to hear from her directly, but she wouldn't talk to me about it.
She may have been shaken up by the collision accident yesterday.
Collision?
She was in a car accident?
I didn't know you were unaware...
It wasn't a serious accident.
And don't worry about Sae-hoon Kang.
It hasn't been easy for Hyun-ji, but I think it's over now.
Mother!
How are you two together?
I came looking for him.
I told you not to. I said it wouldn't help.
What are you trying to do now?
Hyun-ji.
Am I a little child?
Are you meeting with my homeroom teacher?
What is this behavior toward your mother?
I'm already suffering as it is.
I'm not getting my approvals at work, and I can't stand everyone looking at me.
Must you remind me of my incompetence?
Enough.
Alright.
I understand.
I'll be on my way.
Please stay.
I've received his agreement.
The divorce is over for now.
I just wish I could have taken care of it sooner.
Hyun-ji went through so much.
I'm sorry.
Dong-joon...
Things will work out at the company as well...
Stay strong.
Da-yool.
When do I get to see the baby?
When your Auntie is released from the hospital.
You must be excited, it's a girl.
Yea. I want to see her.
I'm going to hold her, change her, and feed her.
Auntie probably won't let you...
Why not? I need the practice.
Huh?
That way, when I get my own in Christmas, I can take care of it.
What makes you think you'll get a sibling in Christmas?
Soo-jin.
Did you eat alone earlier today?
Did Ji-eun have her baby?
Yes.
It was such a cute, small baby.
You should have one of your own too. I'll take care of it.
How can I have one without getting married?
I know.
So you should get out more and start dating.
Enough of that.
I need you to make radish kimchi.
Radish kimchi?
We still have some more.
It's all gone.
Stay home tomorrow and make some more.
That's odd.
- I'm sure I packed some... - Mom, Auntie was eating out of the tub.
What are you talking about? It hasn't been that long...
Huh?
What is this...!
Hey guys, sorry.
What is this? Who's going to eat this after her?
I'm sorry.
[Divorce Decree]
Bring it to me now.
I'll meet you in front of the law firm.
What did you want to give me?
I don't know what it is, but forget it.
I just did my job.
Can you drive me somewhere?
You have to tell me the destination if I'm going to keep going.
How's the car?
Does it feel alright?
It's nice and runs smoothly.
Where are we going?
Do you like it?
This is your car.
- What? - My gift to you.
You expect me to accept a car?
An expensive car, for no reason at all?
Do I need a reason?
What reason should I make up for you?
Forget it.
I can't accept it.
- Dong-joon. - I know how you feel.
I know you're thankful, and I'm glad that it's all over.
But this is it.
This has nothing to do with pride or anything.
Shouldn't you simply accept a person's gesture of gratitude?
I'm sorry I can't.
It's who I am.
Yea, Honey.
I'm still at the office.
I had a lot of work to do today.
Your sister?
But she wasn't expecting yet.
She must have been shocked yesterday.
What do you mean?
You heard wrong.
Alright then.
I can't go today, but I'll visit them tomorrow.
What do you think you're doing?
Are you going to accept the car?
I can't!
Really?
Then throw it away.
Hyun-ji.
Hyun-ji! Hyun-ji!
Hyun-ji.
You watch. You'll drive that car right back to me.
Why, can't you sleep?
That's not it.
Should I warm you some milk?
Hmm?
Honey.
Yea.
I'm just curious...
What would you do if you were left alone without me?
What?
Subtitles provided by MBC
I'll call you later.
Honey!
Yea, Honey.
I would like her to bring the delivery.
Where are you, can't you come?
I have an important meeting tonight.
I wanted to introduce him earlier.
- How are you? - Welcome.
Thank you for your invitation.
Hello.
Rice cake delivery! Rice cakes.
