Eunsu is...
Your little sister.
What?
She really is your sister.
That's how I've always thought.
And that's how I've raised her.
Eunsu is my daughter.
Jiwan is my son.
I'm their mother.
They are my first...
Family.
What are you talking about?
Eunsu...
She's not related to you by blood...
But she is your little sister.
I... I don't understand.
What are you talking about?
Eunsu isn't my little sister?
That's not it.
I'm telling you she is.
Blood relations aside,
she is your sister your father accepted.
You're saying she's not related to us by blood.
No, Jiwan, no.
She's family even if she's not related to us.
Raising you and Eunsu,
I never thought of her as anything less.
I didn't give birth to either of you,
but I've always believed you were my children.
Don't you remember?
When Eunsu cried as a baby,
you used to give her piggy back rides.
When she was 3,
she fell and got a bloody knee,
and you cried your heart out,
saying she was going to die,
saying you didn't want her to die.
You said you'd walk Eunsu down the aisle
at her wedding in your father's place,
so how could you two not be family?
You and Eunsu grew up together for 25 years.
Blood relations aside, you two are family.
Hold on, mother.
Jiwan.
Please give me some time to think.
Jiwan...
Episode 14
Oh? Eunsu, you're home!
Yeongju, you're here, too?
Hello.
I'm home.
Why are you so down?
Why do you look so upset?
Were you crying?
What?
Yes! You were crying!
It's written all over your face!
You're just like your mom, bottling things up.
Yeongju, why don't you tell us?
What's wrong with Eunsu?
Excuse me?
Ms. Han was really worried,
thinking Eunsu was in an accident.
- So? - So...
Seonhui, come here and sit down.
I heard you slapped Eunsu.
I understand you were worried and angry,
but still, that was wrong.
How could you slap such a fragile child?
Don't be too hard on her.
Be quiet!
You're saying that because she's not your niece.
If she were your real niece, you'd be furious.
She's Sangjun's daughter.
Even I have never laid a hand on her.
So how could you slap her, knowing that?
I'm sorry, mother.
You're always quick with apologies.
I know your mind has been somewhere else,
and I didn't say anything.
But your cooking is awful,
and you break dishes all the time.
I'm walking on eggshells every day!
Oh, boy.
Seonhui, she was just angry, you know, right?
She dotes on Eunsu.
I know, Haengsuk.
It's okay.
Where are Eunsu and Jiwan?
Eunsu's in her room, and Jiwan's not back yet.
I thought he'd come home with you.
Eunsu.
Mom.
I'm sorry.
Aunt told me how there was a bus accident
and you thought I was on it.
I'm sorry.
I won't ever turn my phone off again.
No, I was wrong.
How could I have slapped you like that?
It hurt, didn't it?
I'm sorry.
It didn't hurt a bit.
You have such weak hands...
I should get you some herbal supplements.
Breakfast looks really good today.
I'll see you later.
You're leaving early?
What about breakfast?
That's okay. I have to go to work early.
Should I pack you some food?
Just a minute. It won't take long.
I'm late.
I'll see you later.
What's wrong with Jiwan today?
We should've gone to the emergency room.
You still have a fever, don't you?
Emergency room for just a cold?
I'll go see a doctor this afternoon.
You can't stay home? Call in sick.
I'm not in a position to call in sick.
You used to call in sick all the time before.
I'll feel better after I see a doctor.
I'll see you later.
Don't forget to see a doctor, okay?
And if you're too sick, come home early.
And if you feel any worse...
Just quit, honey.
Just quit.
Oh!
What?
Mom, what is it?
I guess nothing bothers you!
Get up and clean your room or something.
Are you crazy?
You can't control your emotions?
What's wrong?
You've got a different personality every day!
You were fine yesterday,
but today, you're crazy!
Be quiet.
She's like a mean stepmother.
She couldn't do this to me unless she is.
Oh, my head.
The kitchen job we talked about before...
Let me have that job.
You said it was for your friend.
It was for me. I'm looking for a job.
I know you know, so why are you asking?
You sound upset.
I'm sorry if I offended you.
I need a job.
But you're a bank manager's wife.
Did your husband quit his job?
Or did you get a divorce?
He still works at the bank,
and we're not divorced.
You can ask more questions,
but when can I start?
Oh, you're serious.
But you know what?
We already hired someone yesterday.
But since it's you, I'll work it out.
I can send her to another place,
so you can come and work here.
What? You changed your mind?
No.
Thank you.
I'll do my best.
Fine! I'll work hard!
So mean.
She's still as inconsiderate as she was in college.
Why did she have to ask so many questions?
Mother
Your call is being forwarded to an automated...
Jiwan, can you sort these...
Jiwan?
Yes, sir.
Sort these out and take them to R&D.
Yes, sir.
Jiwan, what's gotten into you these days?
What's wrong?
I'm sorry.
You worked too hard and burned yourself out.
I hope good things come out of this.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Yes.
- Do go ahead. - Walk with me.
Okay.
Gicheol, did you have lunch?
Yes, sir.
Excuse me, Director Jang!
Director Jang!
You mean me?
Aren't you Director Jang of Taehu Industry?
Who...
You don't recognize me?
I'm Kang Jaecheol of Segi Bank,
in charge of Taehu Industry.
I used to be an assistant manager then.
I can't believe we meet again.
You seem to have become quite successful.
I'm sorry, I think you're mistaken.
You don't remember me?
I'm Kang Jaecheol of Segi Bank.
I was in charge of corporations.
Anyway, back then, Director Jang,
the cash amount in your account was so...
Oh, right!
That assistant manager!
You remember, right?
Which bank are you...
I'm sorry but I don't have time right now.
I'll let you get back to work.
Director Jang...
I think he's eligible for a loan...
23 years ago, Segi Bank, Jongno Branch
Power of Attorney Grantor: Kim Sangjun Agent: Jang Taesu
These are
the accounts to be transferred under my name.
Yes, I will take care of them.
Fill this out then, stamp your name seal here.
You're buying a new factory?
I hope you continue to be our client.
Yes.
That's it.
You want the money in the borrowed-name
accounts transferred into this account?
Yes.
Segi Bank, Jang Taesu
I had forgotten them, but people from my past
appearing left and right.
But then again, we all live in Seoul,
so it's natural to run into each other.
Will he cause trouble for you?
No.
It would've been better not to see him,
but he won't be a big problem.
I won't meet him again,
and he won't meet anyone I know.
It'll be fine.
Hi, honey.
Maybe it's because I'm a bit chilly,
but I'm craving spicy pork stew.
Should we go to Seonhui's pork stew place?
Do they do take-outs?
Oh, my!
What kind of cut could that be?
Oh, my!
Look at that, mom.
It looks so juicy.
I'm sure you could eat it raw.
Wait, mom.
We have some, too.
What?
We should eat it with the family, though, right?
Yes.
That's what makes us family.
Shall we just have a taste?
Just a taste?
It's delicious.
Mom, that con man sure knows his beef.
Stop eating.
What if we eat it all?
Mom!
I didn't eat that much.
There's plenty left over.
I'm home.
Oh...
What's all this?
Eunsu, you're home?
We were just having a taste.
Why don't you come and sit down?
Here...
Mom, look...
- Oh, no! - Where did it all go?
Oh, no...
There's nothing left. It's all gone.
How could you eat all of it?
You should've left some for Eunsu.
Me? I did?
You ate more than I did, mom.
What are you talking about?
Oh, it's okay.
If you two enjoyed it, I'm happy.
Jiwan, you're home.
Oh, no...
What do we do?
I'm home.
Hi.
Jiwan, may I come in?
I'm coming in.
Did you have dinner?
I did.
Is something wrong?
What is it?
It was mom and I who had the fight,
so why are you the one who is so down?
I'm the one who got slapped, not you.
It's not about that.
I'm tired.
I enjoyed it.
But...
Was 6 fallen leaves at 4 p.m. in autumn
too abstract for you to understand?
I couldn't feel that in there.
Was the rewrite not good?
This script feels like 8 fallen leaves at 5 p.m.
Are 6 fallen and 8 fallen leaves very different?
They are.
The rewritten version must be worse.
But, I saw hope in the 5 p.m. part of it.
What?
This script isn't bad for a TV movie.
It won't take long.
Ten minutes.
Please give us ten minutes...
Without an appointment, it can't be done.
When could we come back to see him?
If you can help us set up an appointment...
Miss!
Let go of me!
Get out!
Fine, we will leave.
Sir, just a minute.
Please give me a bit of your time.
I only need ten minutes.
We have the perfect loan for...
Here are Hyeongmang Industry's
business survey index and evaluation results.
The sales growth and increase in profit in 2012
earned them financial stability.
Loan default risk is low
because they have technological strength
and competitive products.
Their credit rating is level 2,
and the appropriate loan amount is 3.5 million.
Are you sure they are level 2?
Yes.
How can this be level 2?
Did you check these thoroughly?
Well...
Is something wrong?
They could be eligible for level 1.
- Mr. Ma. - Yes, sir.
I'm going to the executive director's office,
so go out for a drink after work.
Don't break open any champaign bottles.
Remember this loan hasn't been executed yet.
Why don't you tell them yourself?
Director, we'll see you later.
See you later.
Congratulations, Mr. Kang and Mr. Choi.
Good work.
- Bravo! - Bravo.
It's been so long.
The beef is so tender and juicy.
It is. Have some more.
Did you see a doctor? You're not coughing.
Dad, you have a cold?
I'm fine now.
Dad, you look very happy today.
Well...
I'm starting a new life, too.
I'm happy you're happy.
You seem to be happy, too.
- You had been frowning for days. - I'm...
I'm too pretty to be frowning all the time.
I'm too pretty for my own good.
You should thank me. You got that from me.
Yes.
What are you talking about?
Dad, be honest with me. Is she right?
Your dad has very high standards.
- Yes. - Right, honey?
Right.
Let's do another toast.
Bravo.
- Bravo. - Cheers.
Are you leaving now?
Yes.
You're not having breakfast?
I can eat at work.
I packed some side dishes you like.
A home-cooked meal is better
than cafeteria food.
Don't worry about me.
I can take care of myself.
Jiwan.
I...
I'm...
What am I doing?
You have to go to work.
You'll be late.
Mother.
Please give me more time to think.
It was something I could never imagine.
So give me a bit more time.
Okay. I understand.
In summary, Marketing is taking the lead in
the development of the new product
for the second half of this year.
Not just product concept development?
Right.
Under President Jang's special orders,
the authority over the entire process
came into this hand right here.
Authority over the entire process.
I'm getting very motivated.
We could get promoted, right?
Are we getting more pay?
You just started.
It's too early to talk about that.
With success, we could get a big bonus.
Are you serious about the big bonus?
Yes.
Let's start by brainstorming for ideas.
Brainstorm for what?
We just need to make a good product, right?
How?
What looks good sells well.
Just make it pretty.
If it's pretty, people will buy.
If you focus on the appearance,
you will miss the important basics.
What is important basics?
Is the function what the consumers need?
Things like cost cutting is a must, right?
How could you say such a thing
after working here for years and years?
Necessary function? Cost cutting?
Basics?
That goes without saying.
We're having a meeting over that!
No, I thought we could come up with ideas...
My father is working his butt off,
relying on people like you!
Thinking about him breaks my heart.
You should be ashamed of yourselves!
How many times have I told you?
According to the format we use here,
you can't switch this and that with each other.
How come you never get it right?
How long are you going to continue this?
- Hyeondo. - Yes?
You spent all this from the corporate account?
Excuse me?
Do you think the company's money
is your own?
Don't you know what "cost cutting" means?
Cost cutting.
That's the basics.
Don't even try to talk back.
What are you doing?
Mom!
I have to go!
Mom, I'm dying!
Be quiet! I'm dying, too.
Mom, hurry up!
I'm about to black out!
Oh, that darn...
Mom!
He wants to kill us? He got us rotten beef!
I should go and beat him up!
I should kill him!
Oh, I can't believe this is happening
because of eating that darn beef!
Oh! Haengsuk, hurry up and come out!
Mom, I'm not finished.
I didn't want you to leave in a hurry like this.
I'm sorry.
There's urgent business to take care of there.
It's okay.
I had business to take care of, too.
Come to think of it, I didn't get a chance
to say goodbye to my friends.
Oh, it's my fault. I'm sorry.
Please take care of the business for me.
Don't worry about your family and the moving.
The company will take care of it.
It's okay.
My wife can take care of it.
I'm asking you to focus on work.
Thank you.
I should get going.
Jiwan.
I heard about you.
Congratulations.
It just worked out that way.
You should...
Never mind.
Good luck at work,
and if you need me, call me any time.
I will. Take care, sir.
Thanks.
The movers will be at Director's Lee's house
within a week.
You should join them
and find something for me there.
What is it?
Taehu financial documents from 25 years ago.
You must find them.
I will.
Hello, mother. This is Taesu.
Yes.
I was wondering if you're free today.
Mother, did you go somewhere?
Must I report to you everywhere I go?
Please bring the ginseng box into my place.
Yes, ma'am.
It's been a while, Ms. Han.
Hello.
Aren't you glad to see him?
It's been over 20 years, right?
I brought him to say hello to you.
Did you have lunch with him?
Yes.
He called me because he had free time.
Taesu is so caring.
Take that into my place. This way.
Say hello to him.
- I'm going in. - Yes, goodbye.
You haven't told her yet?
No.
I asked to meet her today,
so I could tell her about Eunsu.
But...
I was afraid she would be shocked if I did.
I haven't changed my mind about
telling your family about Eunsu.
If it's too hard for you to tell them,
I'll find another way.
Another way?
A way that nobody would get hurt.
I showed her an escape route, so she'll take it.
Gicheol, do you think I'm strange?
I'm sure there's a good reason
why you're doing what you're doing.
Do you want her to leave with her daughter?
No.
I don't want Seonhui to run away.
That's the next worst thing.
The worst is for her to tell her family the truth.
That would be the very worst.
I showed her an escape route,
so she will take it, even if it's a trap.
Now that we know the other
knowing each other's weaknesses.
Eunsu
Why won't you answer? It's your sister.
I'm working.
But you always answer your sister's calls.
What's wrong?
You don't have anything to do?
I do.
I'm going back to work.
What is it this time?
Did you have a fight with Jiwan?
You did!
I thought you two never fought.
Yes, siblings should throw punches
at one another from time to time...
Wait, is that between brothers?
Anyway, fights will bring you closer together.
That's not true.
That is true!
That's why Jiwan won't answer your calls.
Jiwan didn't pick up on purpose?
I don't believe you. You're so dense.
You should've known that
when he didn't call you back.
Whatever.
Tell him I'm not going to answer
his calls, either.
Why do I have to tell him that?
Oh, forget it. Hang up!
Hey!
How could she scream at someone
who was trying to help her?
Her whole family's weird.
Thank you.
When is the bandage coming off?
In about two days?
I might have it on for a few more days.
Something's different about you these days.
Something's wrong, isn't it?
Someone
told me a secret she has kept all her life.
I'm not sure why she told me this now.
I'm just a bit confused.
I don't know the reason, but I know one thing.
That she trusted you.
Enough to tell you the secret
she's kept to herself all her life.
So it wasn't because of me.
Now, where did he go?
I'm sure he didn't ignore your call on purpose.
And don't trust that Hyeondo guy too much.
He's too flighty, he doesn't seem trustworthy.
But he wouldn't lie.
Jiwan
Meet me at the bar near home after work
What is it?
Jiwan's text.
He wants to meet after work tonight.
See?
I told you not to believe what Hyeondo says.
Maybe you're right.
Oh...
I have so much free time,
but I have nothing to do.
Have you been waiting long?
Hello. I came with her.
What are you doing here?
What? You told me to meet you here.
You didn't text Eunsu?
I think Hyeondo played a joke on us.
Let's go.
Why? Let's have a drink now that we're here.
You go ahead. I'm going home.
What did I do wrong?
What are you saying?
Tell me.
What did I do to deserve this from you?
You've been acting very weird
toward me lately.
I have stuff to think about.
Go ahead. I'm not trying to stop you.
But why won't you tell me what it's about?
I'm your little sister.
You know I'm worried about you and mom
so how could you do this to me?
This is hard for me, too.
It's bad enough mom slapped me.
It made me feel like crying,
but you won't even talk to me.
You got slapped?
Your mother beats you?
Kim Jiwan!
Your family beats women?
Hyeondo, it's not your place to butt in.
You sent me that text, didn't you?
Why would you play such a joke on me?
That's not what's important here!
Why are you getting excited
about my family affairs?
- Leave. - Your family issue?
It's my friend's family issue.
Hey!
You come with me!
That bastard hit me!
What the...
What do we do?
I don't know.
Hey!
You leave.
I'll take care of it.
You can talk to me.
- I'm the one at fault. - You bastard!
Oh, no!
Why would you punch him?
You know that was a mistake!
Who the heck are you?
What do you think you're doing!
What? A fight?
Eunsu and Jiwan?
My grandkids are at the police station now?
Police station? Why?
What? Police station?
Oh, my! I don't believe this!
How could you do such a thing!
Honey!
Yeongju's at the police station!
Police station? Our Yeongju?
Yes.
Yes, ma'am. I'll be right over.
Who could be calling you at this hour?
Don't you know how I work?
I only focus on one woman at a time.
The Minster's wife?
She acts all classy, but she's weird.
She said to get her son out of police custody
without her husband finding out.
I can't believe I have to run such errands!
You should go.
It's not bad to know about their dirty laundry.
You always get beaten up.
I wasn't ready, and he punched me first.
- Oh, my! Over there! - Jiwan!
- What's going on? - Grandma.
Hello.
My baby!
Are you hurt?
Was it at the pub?
How could you end up at a place like this?
What happened?
We were drinking, and there was a dispute.
Oh! Seonhui!
- Ms. Lee! - Oh, my!
What's going on here?
Mom, be quiet.
They're writing up a report.
It'll be over soon.
How can you embarrass us like this!
How could you end up at the police station?
How dare you make us come all the way here?
That hurt!
I didn't ask you to come.
You ran here when I said "police station."
What happened?
Hey, what were you two doing?
What happened?
Mom, him.
Oh!
Yes.
It was you!
I knew it was you!
Hello!
Do you know the problems you caused us!
Mom, get him!
You con man!
What?
This happened to you because of him?
Yes.
Why that little!
Wait...
So all of this happened because of him?
- Yes. - Yes.
What's wrong with you?
It looks like you're mistakenly
accusing me of being the cause?
- Yes. - Mistakenly? I think not!
I can tell you're a con man!
He took money from Jiwan.
That's it for now.
Can you please make them settle down?
And you two, please go sit over there.
How could you do that?
Don't say it wasn't you!
Grandma.
Kim Jiwan, come here and explain things.
It wasn't just Hyeondo's fault.
Right!
But he was the cause of it all.
Yeah.
Jiwan, you tell us.
You ended up here because of him, right?
I said you're wrong!
I tried to protect
everyone with all that I had! I really did!
Protect?
You look like the type who'd run away!
No! I'm serious!
I tried to stop them.
I punched them.
Right.
Is that true?
For you to have done that,
I'm sure there was good reason for it then.
Oh, I can't believe you!
If that was true, you should've said that!
Why did you make us believe it was you?
Are you badly hurt? I'm sorry, my son...
Please use this to get treatment.
I'm sorry.
I'm really sorry.
I can't believe this.
Man.
Hyeondo.
Mom.
Who is it?
I'm sorry.
Please take care of this.
My eye...
What happened to your eye?
That handsome eye!
Oh, my!
That hurts.
What do we do?
Are you all right?
You don't need a doctor?
I'm fine. I'm not hurt.
My grandson is home safely.
That's all that matters.
You must be exhausted. Go get some rest.
Yes, grandma.
Don't worry about me.
Yes, mom.
Jiwan's back, so let's go to bed.
You'll get sick.
Okay. Let's go to bed.
You go to bed, too.
Let's go.
Jiwan.
Thanks.
Are you all right?
You're not in shock, are you?
I'm fine.
And I didn't get hurt.
Good.
I'm sorry for making you worry.
I brought some ointment just in case...
You can leave it there.
I'll take care of it myself.
Jiwan...
I haven't changed my mind about
telling your family about Eunsu.
If it's too hard for you to tell them,
I'll find another way.
Another way?
A way that nobody would get hurt.
Are you out of your mind?
- I'm sorry. - Seonhui,
what's wrong with you these days?
I'm sorry.
What are you going to do about this?
I'm sorry! Let me pay for the dry cleaning...
Dry cleaning? I have an appointment to make.
Why aren't you paying attention?
I'm sorry.
- What do we do? - Man.
I'm sorry.
I will pay for the dry cleaning.
That's okay. I'll pay for it.
You don't have to come to work anymore.
You know you haven't been
a good worker, right?
Yes, I know.
Let's end things here.
I'll deposit your pay up until today.
I'm sorry.
Are you getting off?
If she finds out I saw that,
she won't ever see me again.
Yes, sir.
Find out how I can help her
without her knowing.
I can't watch her suffer like this anymore.
My son
Mother
Your call is being forwarded to an automated...
Jiwan, you're home?
Yes.
Work must be tough.
You don't look so good.
I'm okay.
Let me rest a little.
Jiwan, come and have dinner.
Okay.
Where's mother?
Right.
Where's Seonhui?
She wasn't here, so I made dinner.
She had the day shift, so she should be home.
Maybe she's working overtime.
Stop yapping like that and try calling her.
If she's running late, she should call us.
Oh, you're worried for nothing.
Okay, I'll call her.
Your call is being forwarded to an automated...
What?
Mom.
Seonhui's phone's been turned off.
Maybe she turned it off because she's working.
Then call the restaurant.
Okay. I'll do it.
Hello.
Hi.
I'm Seonhui's sister-in-law.
I was wondering if Seonhui's really busy.
What?
Okay. Thank you.
Why did you hang up like that?
What did they say?
I can't believe this...
Seonhui got fired today.
What are you talking about?
Are you serious?
I just spoke with the restaurant owner,
and she said she fired her this afternoon.
What?
Why didn't she call home, then?
Why hasn't she called?
This is why I call her dense.
Seonhui always keeps things to herself.
Mother
Oh, she worked there for so long.
She must be heartbroken.
If it happened this afternoon, it's been hours.
So where did she go so late at night?
I know...
I'm sure she didn't even have dinner.
I'll go look for her.
Your call is being forwarded to an automated...
Hello, Ms. Oh, this is Jiwan.
Have you talked to my mother today?
No.
My mother...
Hasn't come home yet.
Jiwan.
Oh...
Mother, you should...
You're the reason
why Sangjun ended up this way.
Everyone said you were bad luck.
That you were ill-fated to lose
your parents, husband and children.
So I begged you to let Sangjun go,
but you wouldn't.
Now, look what you've done.
You were abandoned at an orphanage,
but I looked after you because you were smart,
so how could you repay me like this?
What have we done to you to deserve this?
You made us have two funerals!
Leave.
Seeing your face makes me furious,
so I can't live with you.
Please leave this house.
Please don't leave me.
Mom.
Mother.
I'm sorry.
Please don't leave me.
Come home with me.
You must have something up your sleeve
to be so confident.
Yes, I do.
One that'll hide all my shortcomings.
You will tell mother yourself?
If you can't tell her, I will.
Something happened to Eunsu, right?
Jiwan.
What's this?
These are copies.
What about the originals?
What is that?
They look like dad's company documents.
There's an old account book, too.
I heard our bank has a document storage.
Yes, Taehu Industry.
I can find them at the storage?
What's this? Taehu Industry's account book?
