Because of me,
just to get back at me,
you told Eunsu?
I warned you.
You crossed the line.
I could handle Hyeondo finding out.
But Sugyeong...
We should've protected each other's family.
You better pray nothing happened to Eunsu.
If anything happened to her,
I'll make sure
you see why they say maternal love
knows no bounds.
Who told you that?
I stole your family's money
and what? (Episode 45)
It was me who made Taesu steal, too?
Tell me.
Did Taesu tell you that?
He stole your family's money because of me?
You actually believe that?
That's not what's important here!
Are you really my mom?
You abandoned Eunha,
and you stole other people's money.
And you're my mom?
How can you be so rude!
Yes, I am!
I am your mom.
I gave birth to you.
What's your problem?
Seonhui?
She's as good a mom as they come.
You should be grateful I left you with her.
What about
my father?
Was my father
my real father?
You think I was crazy?
With Seonhui's husband? How could I?
Your father
was a nice college boy.
Happy?
What's your problem?
That I am your mom?
Or how Seonhui deceived you?
(Mom)
See?
She gets worried sick if she can't reach you.
(Mom)
Eunsu!
Mom...
Where are you?
I'll come to you. Where are you?
Mom...
No! Whatever Jang Taesu said,
you must listen to me.
I'll tell you everything.
Don't believe anything he said to you.
Eunsu.
You
are my daughter. You are.
Mom, did you give birth to me?
I love you so much.
Being like you,
being someone like you
was my childhood dream.
Mom...
I love you so much,
so how could we be not related?
Eunsu!
Later...
I want to see you later.
I can't bear to face you right now.
Eunsu!
Oh?
Is that your father?
Yeah.
He must have been friends with President Jang.
They were much closer than me and Hyeondo.
So how could he...
You never know how people change.
What if Hyeondo becomes just like him?
He might, for his own family.
Don't people like him have regrets later on?
They don't feel guilty at all?
Guilt...
I don't know
if President Jang is capable of feeling that.
I don't know about President Jang,
but his son might feel it.
Even if Hyeondo feels guilty,
the choices he has are predestined.
He's chosen his path already.
For his family.
You're doing this for your family, too.
I feel badly for both of you.
And for Eunsu, too.
Yes.
I wonder, what if we never found out.
If it's possible,
I want to go back to how things were.
Ms. Han.
Eunsu.
Eunsu didn't come here?
She's not at home?
She didn't come here.
You should've called instead of coming here.
Call her?
Eunsu turned her phoned off.
What do we do? I can't reach her.
Did something happen to Eunsu?
Jiwan.
Tell me.
Jang Taesu met with Eunsu.
I don't know what he told her.
What do you think he told her?
Had I told her,
it would've saved Eunsu a bit of pain.
President Jang told her something?
He told Eunsu her mom is Jeongae.
Eunsu hasn't come home yet.
By the way, Seonhui,
where did you go so late?
Jeongae went out a bit earlier, too.
What is it?
What's wrong?
Your runaway report has been accepted.
If we locate her, we'll call you
unless the person doesn't want to be found.
Yes, sir.
I finished the report for President Jang.
Crazy girl.
I thought she'd come home. Where did she go?
How can she just disappear like that?
They didn't find her?
No.
Mom, you really don't know?
You went out to find her yesterday.
No, I went to get something.
How could I find Eunsu?
Then, where is she?
How would I know?
No one's dying here.
Why are you crying?
Then, ask that man.
He might know where she is.
You can't tell anyone Eunsu met with him
or how we left her with him, okay?
We'll be in serious trouble.
What about Eunsu?
I couldn't find her.
Where is she right now?
Throw these out!
- Mom. - Grandma.
That girl!
Don't let her set foot in here again.
You did nothing to deserve this from Eunsu.
You took an abandoned child in
and showered her with love.
You didn't do anything wrong.
You've suffered enough, torturing yourself,
worrying Eunsu might find out
you're not her real mom.
Mom, don't do this.
If it weren't for Eunsu,
you would've had a much better life.
Because of her, you couldn't get remarried
or leave this family.
You never dreamed of meeting anyone,
so you've done more than enough.
Oh...
At her age,
who cares if we're her blood or not?
Why is she causing us this much pain?
She doesn't know how lucky she is!
Mom, don't say things you don't mean.
I said throw them all out!
Knowing all of us would be worried sick,
how can she not call us?
Doesn't she know how much she means to me?
If she did, she couldn't do this.
Ugh!
Oh,
why are you folding them? Throw them out!
Please, mother.
Mother,
the thing is...
I was able to go on because of Eunsu.
I'd always been alone until Sangjun put
Eunsu in my arms,
I felt connected for the first time.
Eunsu made Sangjun and me
a real married couple,
and her brother Jiwan, her grandmother you
and her aunt Haengsuk...
I had my own family for the first time.
Mother,
I didn't raise someone else's child.
I raised my own daughter, mother.
Oh, geez...
You still love her
even after she puts you through this...
If she cared about us, how could she do this?
Mom, that's enough.
You're making Seonhui more miserable.
Why would you cause this much trouble?
What are you doing to do?
Eunsu disappeared.
Seonhui's family is miserable right now.
She disappeared for that stupid reason?
They didn't raise her right.
What exactly did you say?
I heard you blamed me.
You stole money and Sangjun's family
went bankrupt because of me?
How could you lie to a child like that?
It wasn't a lie. It was the truth.
Jeongae, you started all this.
Had you not stolen that money and run,
I wouldn't have thought of transferring
Sangjun's money into my account.
You started everything.
It was all your fault.
You think I'm Eunsu?
Stop talking nonsense. I know better.
You and I both were blinded by greed.
I betrayed Seonhui, who was like a sister.
You betrayed Sangjun, who was like a brother.
We're just about the same.
Don't act like you're above me.
I'm glad Han Eunsu is nothing like you.
But Hyeondo is exactly like you.
What?
You don't want him to be like you?
Then try being decent.
You shouldn't be so rude to me right now.
But you're the one who needs me.
If you keep this up, I'm going to testify.
So enough already.
Don't push my buttons!
So what did Lee Jeongae do in America?
I'm still trying to find out.
Is something bothering you?
No.
She'll do anything for money.
Mom!
Don't run. You'll get hurt.
Where were you?
I've been waiting for you forever.
Why? When everyone here loves you?
I get worried when you're gone.
Don't worry, you little brat.
I would've already left you if I was going to.
Why did I grow fond of you in the first place?
Have you eaten?
You waited for me without eating anything?
Yes, she'll do anything for money.
Lee Jeongae is so easy to control.
What do you want?
Has Eunsu called you?
Don't you know we broke up?
If she calls you, call me...
Even if she calls, I won't answer.
Just tell her to stop coming to see me.
Eunsu came to see you?
When?
When was that?
What do you think you're doing?
Tell me when it was.
Last night, in front of my workplace.
Last night?
And?
She didn't come see you again?
Who cares?
I don't care about her anymore.
Did you come to ask me that? Why?
Why!
Eunsu hasn't come home? Since last night?
What is it? Tell me!
Your father told Eunsu
who her birth mother is.
Briefly, I'd thought
my family and you two
could be like how we used to be.
Must I sacrifice my family and keep fighting?
As long as your father had nothing to do
with my father's death, nothing else matters.
But...
Your father,
I can't forgive him.
Hey.
Wait.
Eunsu disappeared again?
What is it this time?
How did you find out?
It was my day off, but I went to work.
Seonhui asked me to cover for her,
because she couldn't work today.
Pretend you don't know anything.
She must be having a very hard time.
Was that why you were calling
your old friends all last night?
Why didn't she just come here?
Where did she go?
Disappearing like that might become a habit.
Eunsu wouldn't make a habit of that!
Why are you getting mad?
I said that because I'm worried.
By the way, why isn't your dad coming home?
You told him not to.
That's why he isn't coming home?
He chose that moment to do what I say?
He was having a hard time at work, so I was
good to him, and that spoiled him rotten!
I'll see you later.
Where are you going this late without eating?
You go ahead and eat without me.
I'll eat later.
Problems with your kids are the hardest of all.
Wait,
should I bring her some side dishes?
Ms. Han, have some porridge.
I'll do this.
No, I should do it.
I haven't been able to buy Eunsu
new clothes in a long time.
Other moms do that every season.
Ms. Han...
All I did was cook her food.
I first met Eunsu in middle school.
I thought she was a total mama's girl.
She talked about you all the time.
She did?
So much so that I was actually disgusted,
but I understood after I met you.
I thought "No wonder she's a mama's girl."
Don't try too hard to console me.
I'm serious, Ms. Han.
But I think I know why Eunsu is so sad.
It's the same reason as you.
"I should've been good, I should've behaved.
Why does she love me so much?
I'm so sorry, I was so bad," stuff like that,
thinking all the bad things she's done.
Eunsu will come home soon.
She's my friend, so I know her.
She's my daughter, so I know her better.
It's me.
Where's Seonhui?
She's in her room, sick.
You know what happened?
There's no secret between me and Seonhui.
Eunsu hasn't called?
No.
Oh, what is she thinking?
Even if you're worried, you must stand strong
so you can look after the rest of your family.
Here, I brought you some side dishes.
I'm sure you couldn't make any.
Thank you.
But you didn't have to bring more.
You already sent us plenty.
What?
What do you...
I don't think she can eat...
You're here?
And you're here, too.
Seonhui had a few bites, at least.
Thanks, Yeongju.
Seeing you made her feel a bit better.
It was nothing, aunt.
I'll come back in the morning so don't worry.
Thanks, Yeongju.
Let me go in and see her. Here.
Yeongju,
you're not her daughter-in-law.
Why are you looking after her?
Wait, these are my containers!
Let go of this.
You! I can't believe what you did!
I bought the broiled beef for you!
And the expensive ginseng pickle, too?
You!
You're doing this because of Jiwan, right?
I understand falling for a man, still,
you can't bring him everything in the fridge!
Mom, please.
Don't overreact.
This has nothing to do with Jiwan.
Come on, that wasn't at all convincing.
If I ran away from home and you were in shock,
don't you think Eunsu would come over, too?
She would.
She's too nice not to come.
See? So we should be good to her family.
Just in case.
So if you ran away from home...
Why would you run away from home!
You better not run away from home!
Yes, director. Hello.
Yes, everything's fine.
Who?
So that really was Eunsu.
I wasn't sure, because I saw her years ago.
What happened?
Why was Eunsu here?
She was looking at your photo.
One of my kids here
told me about it, so I found out.
Can we talk to that child?
A pretty lady was sitting here.
What was she doing?
She was just staring off into space.
Huh?
That's the woman who was here before.
She's your mom?
You look like her.
I really look like her?
Yes, you do.
Yes.
My mom and I look a lot alike.
Very much alike.
And?
She just stared off some more, and she was
looking at your photo, so I looked with her.
Did she tell you where she was going?
No.
Had she eaten?
She didn't look hungry?
She wasn't crying?
She didn't look sick or hurt?
I don't know, ma'am.
Just tell me what you remember.
Anything's fine, okay?
Mother, please stop.
Let go of me.
I don't know anything!
A young woman was here alone.
She stayed for a long time.
Do you work here or something?
Why do you keep coming here?
What's your motive?
Are you here to keep tabs on me
or to get dad?
I'm helping dad out, so what's the problem?
Where did your dad go?
He and his boss went to move peach boxes.
They work so well together, totally in sync.
In sync my butt.
Why won't your dad come home?
I think the feng shui here is really bad.
Meeting a totally petty man like his boss
turned your father...
Oh, my...
Have you been well, sir?
- You're back? - How could a petty man
like me be doing well?
I was saying that about Jaecheol.
How could I say that about you?
You think I'm happy being called petty?
Honey, you're not coming home?
You should go home.
You shouldn't steal Jiwan's couch.
Okay, if you say so, I will.
Jiwan still sleeps here?
Then, where is he?
He hasn't been coming here lately.
Is it because we make him work without pay?
You didn't pay him?
When someone works for you, you must pay him.
Jiwan works so hard.
Why are you butting in?
Why do you care?
You have to pay Jiwan!
Eunsu still hasn't called?
Eunsu
was at my father's grave.
She was probably in a lot of pain.
Regardless of what happened,
I didn't want Eunsu to ever get hurt.
That was why
I kept it from her.
But
what I did for my family is hurting
Eunsu
and the rest of my family even more.
It's so hard for me to take...
KIAT wants to provide support
regarding our new design patent
exploring the overseas market.
Okay. Proceed as you'd like.
Yes, sir, and...
What is it?
You have good news?
Yes.
You're a strong candidate for
the Presidential Businessman Award.
Presidential Businessman Award?
Yes.
This year is the first one.
It's for upright and exemplary businessmen.
My wife would be thrilled.
Yes, madam.
Of course.
We owe it all to you.
Thank you.
Of course, he...
Definitely deserves the award.
He never once evaded any taxes
and has a good relationship with his workers.
He ran his company for a long time,
following every rule there was.
Yes, I will see you that day.
Goodbye.
CEO, Jang Taesu of Best Global is likely
to win the first Presidential Businessman Award.
This award is to honor exemplary businessmen.
The award boosts morale and improves
credit standing for Korean businesses.
Candidates were chosen on the 13th and
the winner will be announced on the 30th.
What the...
Oh, my...
This is unbelievable.
This can't be.
Honor my butt!
Has the definition of "honor" changed?
Mother.
Where are you going?
I was going to wait until Eunsu comes home,
because that's the most important thing.
Eunsu's safe return is more important to me.
But Jiwan,
I can't do this anymore.
I tried to stay calm for Eunsu, but I can't.
What are we to do about Jang Taesu?
What should I do?
I'll take care of it.
So don't worry.
(Seoul High Court)
We filed the lawsuit.
I'm sure Taesu got the notice.
Good.
It was the right thing to do.
Thanks, Jeongae.
Are you here to see Hyeondo?
Didn't you two break up for good?
I'm here to see you, not Hyeondo.
Hey!
What kind of reaction was that?
Are you waiting for your girlfriend?
She was here to see President Jang.
You're too young to be miserable in love.
Don't take it too seriously.
Who's here?
Your girlfriend.
The pretty girl who brought you food once.
You have something to say? Go ahead.
Why did you tell me
who my real mom is?
Telling you the truth is a problem?
You should know where you came from.
It's not like you have nothing better to do.
What is it you want to know?
You're suspicious it may not be true?
I'd find out soon enough,
so you wouldn't make up such a lie.
What I want to know is
why you told me,
despite knowing I broke up with Hyeondo.
Did you want to hurt me?
You and my father were like brothers?
You've known me since I was a baby?
Then,
you must have known
how much love my parents raised me with.
In spite of that,
did you have to tell me about my real mom?
You must know better than anyone else
how my mom must feel,
and you still wanted to hurt my family?
What is it you want to say?
You expect your family to be okay
after hurting someone else's family so badly?
From now on don't use me
to hurt my mom or my brother.
You're not the only one who loves his family.
To me, my family is
more important than anyone,
and I want to protect them no matter what.
So stop doing this to me.
This is why blood ties are important.
From listening to how you talk,
I can tell you're Lee Jeongae's daughter.
No.
I'm Han Eunsu,
and my mom is Han Seonhui.
I am my mom's daughter
and Jiwan's little sister.
That will never change.
Eunsu!
You can't go to your interview without this.
How can you be so absent-minded?
Don't get too nervous at the interview.
Don't ever get too nervous.
You look more nervous than I do.
Bye.
Mom.
Why were you hiding?
Because you were with a boy.
Who is he?
When did you two start dating?
He's just a friend.
I couldn't share you with anyone.
I'm back, mom.
Okay, mother.
What?
Eunsu's home?
- Okay. - Hey,
she's home?
Eunsu's okay?
Yes, mom.
She's fine. She's well.
Excuse me, take this out, please!
Oh, you idiot!
Why did you nag me to get an IV injection
and made me miss her coming home?
Wait, how dare she come home?
Who said she could?
I'm going to go home and kick her out.
Eunsu!
Why would you cry?
It's not like I went far away.
You're home?
Come with me, Eunsu.
Eunha, I'll see you after I get some rest.
I love how you smell.
What did Taesu say to you?
He hurt your feelings, didn't he?
Whatever he said, forget it.
Just remember what I say.
I will tell you little by little
how happy I was
and how I felt
when you came to me as a baby.
So whatever that man said,
just forget all of it.
I'm sorry I didn't tell you about it.
I wanted to avoid it as long as I could.
I kept pushing it off,
thinking I would when the time was right.
Eunsu,
I didn't want you to get hurt.
I was scared.
So...
I wanted to tell you
in a way that would hurt you less.
I was
so shocked and flustered
that I made you sad again.
I'm sorry.
I'm fine.
I really am.
Thank you for raising me.
I'm so happy
I grew up as your daughter.
Where is she?
She can't just leave when she wants to
and come back when she wants to!
I'm going to break her legs and kick her out!
Mom, no one believes what you say.
Be quiet, you fool.
Eunsu just got home and went to bed.
How dare she sleep after doing what she did?
Wait, she didn't get any sleep?
It's hard when you leave your home.
That's what everyone says.
Where have you been going
instead of coming to work these days?
I'm going up to my room.
Come with me.
I heard Han Eunsu finally went home.
Did you come home because she went home?
So that breakup wasn't really a breakup.
It's over.
You made sure it was over.
You wrote that in stone
when you stole Jiwan's family's money
25 years ago.
But did you really have to be so kind
to tell Eunsu her real mom,
that of all people, she was the woman
who stole money from her family?
You didn't have to do that,
because we already broke up.
It was unnecessary to hurt Eunsu.
Why did you do it?
Is that really the kind of man you are?
How dare you talk to him in that manner!
He did nothing wrong!
How dare you say that to your father!
Eunsu?
Why would your father tell Eunsu
who her real mom is?
I don't know what nonsense you heard,
but why are you attacking your father?
Stop it, mother.
Stop talking nonsense or get out of this house!
I'm not leaving.
I'm ashamed of you and have no respect for you,
but I'm going to stay by your side, father.
I'm your blood, and I can't sever that.
Whatever you do, I'm going to stay with you
and let people point fingers at me, too.
How dare you!
You two, stop it!
Get out!
I want to be alone, so please,
get out.
So you're going to attend the trial
and contact the press?
He's most concerned with his good name.
But is Jeongae's testimony enough?
I think so.
We have evidence, and she's a strong witness.
It's just that...
Mother.
Do you trust Ms. Lee?
You know I respect you, right?
Whatever you do, the fact that
you lived for our family doesn't change.
However, President Jang Taesu,
there are a few things
you mustn't meddle with in this world.
What are you talking about?
If Eunsu is Lee Jeongae's daughter...
Yes, I understand why Seonhui acted that way.
I didn't know why she was so overly concerned,
but she did it to hide that.
Knowing who her real mom was,
I would've done the same.
Outside business, you're a fair person.
You wouldn't have done that.
Why would you want to
hurt that fragile girl?
Right?
What do you want?
Your answer.
I will believe it, whatever it is.
Believe what you want.
Ma'am, tell Park to bring my car around.
You had nothing to do with Eunsu, right?
You're still talking about that?
It's important to me.
I need your answer, Taesu.
Or else I have no choice but
to believe what Hyeondo said.
Was it true?
Is it okay if I think that?
Are you prepared to deal with
whatever I'm going to do afterwards?
I never did such a thing.
Hyeondo was mistaken.
Why would he think that?
You know Eunsu's family's out for my blood.
Who knows what they told Hyeondo?
Okay.
I believe you.
I know you wouldn't lie to me
after what I just said.
Okay. Bye.
Then
all I need is to get an apology.
What?
I'm in front of Eunsu's apartment.
I want to get their apology
for lying and framing you.
Sugyeong!
You wouldn't lie to me about things like this.
Right?
We're partners.
Do you trust Ms. Lee?
Why does that jerk appear on TV so much?
Haengsuk.
Okay.
Is that man an actor?
Why is he on TV?
You know him?
How?
He took Eunsu with him on mom's birthday.
Oh, that was refreshing.
What?
You've never seen anyone washing their face?
What was that about?
I said what was that about!
What do you mean?
Is it true?
On your birthday,
you let Taesu take Eunsu with him?
Seonhui...
Was it a coincidence?
Or did you make it happen on purpose!
Must you do this over Eunsu?
You thought Hyeondo and I would never find out
when Seonhui's family and the whole world knows?
It's over between us, Jang Taesu.
You've shown us the lowest you could be,
so you must feel at ease.
I don't want to testify.
That's not good.
Why do you do that?
You'll regret it so much later.
What is it, Hyeondo?
I think I'm turning into father.
What do I do, mom...
It'll take less time than having the trial
to punish President Jang.
Okay. I'm staying here to do that.
