(The Women's Room)
(Episode 74)
What are you doing?
If you do this, what would people think?
You must deny all of this as you always have.
Tell everyone this isn't about you.
That's how you should act.
I shouldn't have searched for evidence.
You're the evidence and the witness.
You're the clearest evidence.
Min Kyung-chae!
Get out!
Before I call security and make you leave.
I can't let your personal issues interfere with my work...
just because you're the vice president.
What would have happened if my mum had treated you right?
I think the result would've been the same.
You abuse a person's friendship for your benefit.
You repay kindness with contempt.
Then you step all over that person to climb to the top.
Min Kyung-chae.
Is this how you're going to be?
You're doing this because you don't have any evidence?
Yes, Ma'am.
Tell the publishing team to collect the newsletter and...
take it down from the website.
Yes, Ma'am.
What's going on?
The article...
It's so horrible that I can't believe it.
Then don't believe it.
I won't force you to.
But why are you here to ask about it?
You can just ignore it and not believe it.
Aren't you here because you're suspicious too?
Whether you believe it or not doesn't matter to me.
But I'm sure it's important to Hee-soo.
So believe whatever you want.
You threw a good punch. A nice one.
I'm sure she'll have it collected and taken down from the website.
No, she can't do that without my approval.
Everyone who works here is free to write articles.
She can't control that freedom just because she's the vice president.
I wanted to do this.
I don't have anything else to work with.
It's better than burying it in your heart.
I'm sure you feel better.
It must've been hard for you to bury it in your heart.
That's why I took my revenge.
By making your dad work here.
Don't look at me like that.
It is revenge.
I have no other intention but to take revenge.
I don't understand Pil-sub.
What about Pil-sub?
His life is kind of messy but he's really got a good heart.
Why did he turn down Hee-soo's job offer to work at the restaurant?
It embarrassed Hee-soo.
I'm sure he's got his reasons.
I must tell you this.
There's no daughter-in-law better than Hee-soo.
She lives with her in-laws.
She's even promised to have a baby for you.
She takes care of Pil-sub.
I guess.
Hee-soo may seem cold on the outside but she's a softie.
She can't even kill a bug.
If I were her, I would buy her...
meals and compliment her.
It would tell her how good she is doing. I wouldn't just do nothing.
What did I say?
Mrs Gong says the right thing but it still irritates me.
It's because she's so unlikable.
What did Mrs Gong say?
She told me to take care of Hee-soo.
Because she is living with us and even cares for Pil-sub.
She's right.
Be good to her.
Don't waste your energy to top her.
I know how to care for her.
She's just so strong that I wanted to subdue her.
Since we're on the topic, should I buy her lunch tomorrow?
It's been a while since you've thought of such a great idea.
You've made the right choice.
It's about time.
Why are you eating by yourself?
You should've asked me to come with you.
Just because.
Is the article really just fiction?
Why? Do you think it's real?
People have been saying that it's non-fiction.
Is it really non-fiction?
I can't answer that.
If it's a true story, it's really horrid.
How can she murder her father and cover it up as a car accident?
And what she did to her friend...
She even stole her fiance.
I'll get going.
Why don't you publish this online rather than just offline?
I'm sure you'll get a lot of views.
Should I?
So that everyone can read it?
Is it the story of you and Ms Eun?
Why do you think that?
She walked down the aisle with Mr Min.
Yes! It just seems like it's the story of you and Ms Eun.
That's what everyone has been saying.
Then Ms Eun is a murderer.
That's horrible.
I guess some unbelievable stories can happen in the real world.
What are you guys doing?
Do you think you get paid to gossip?
What's wrong with you?
Don't make a scene.
People are watching.
I have no evidence or witness.
It can just be buried depending on your reaction.
You know the gods are on your side.
Why are you overreacting?
Didn't you tell them my orders?
I told you to have them collect this!
I'm sorry, but Mr Jin stopped them.
What?
Jin Soo-hyuk?
Did you stop the collection of the newsletter?
We spent money printing them.
Is there a reason why I should dump them?
Kyung-chae published an article...
that's causing employees to create an awful gossip.
There are some who believe it.
So what?
Rumours are just rumours and a story is just a story.
We have to control those things too?
- Mr Jin! - Ms Eun!
I don't understand this.
What is your concern?
What concerns me is to see you taking sides with Kyung-chae.
You think I'm taking Min Kyung-chae's side?
Are you at war with her?
Your family will feel betrayed if they find out.
She's your parents' enemy and you still have feelings for her.
No one is betrayed as Min Kyung-chae.
She probably feels betrayed by both you and me.
Don't you think?
Hi, Mother.
Hi! You're home.
Ji-sub's been home for a while.
You must be tired.
Yes, Mother.
Hee-soo.
Your mother decided to be nice to you from today.
You know, I'm really a softie too once you get to know me.
It's just a role I had to play.
You're being good to Ji-sub and Pil-sub,
so I'm going to be really nice to you.
I see.
Come to Pil-sub's restaurant tomorrow.
Let's have lunch.
Just you and me. It'll be nice.
Sure.
I guess I'm just a woman and a daughter-in-law after all.
What happened?
I'm so touched that mother is nice to me.
She even held my hand.
Really?
I'm glad to hear that.
What?
Do you have something to say?
No.
That's enough Eun-chae.
I feel much better.
I'm okay with my work now.
But is it still hard for you to see me at the hotel?
Honestly, yes.
I'm sure Mr Jin has a good reason for this.
I know it's not because he doesn't...
have anyone else who can do this job.
Is that what you think?
Of course. Mr Jin is a good man.
I know what you're worried about.
But I'm sure Mr Jin didn't hire me with evil intentions.
What are we going to about you since you're so bored?
Mr Pil-sum took me to the centre.
I told him I didn't want to but he still took me there...
so that I can play with my friends.
I think you should return to the centre.
If you go back, your friends will be nice to you.
I'll talk to the teachers, so let's go to the centre.
I think you should go too.
You should play with your friends.
It'll be better than staying home by yourself.
Okay.
I'll go to the centre.
Oh my gosh!
What is this?
Then this is a true story?
It's real?
Eun Hee-soo did this?
Come on! It's just a story in a newsletter.
Don't overreact!
I can tell this is a real story.
Fiction can't have all these details.
Then she's a murderer and an arsonist...
who stole a man and a house.
This is no joke.
Did she write this as act of revenge?
How can she take revenge without solid evidence?
You did the same without solid evidence.
Did you come to scold me for that?
With this?
It's not that.
I just want you to know who Eun Hee-soo is.
I know enough about her.
You didn't have to do this.
It seems she has a big grudge against her...
for her to write this article.
Han Pil-sub.
I don't see that slow girl.
I may have to change jobs because of you.
You're coming by every day.
I think I may have to work for the hotel to avoid you.
How can you get a job at that hotel?
Jin Soo-hee.
I have no talent but someone has my back.
My sister-in-law is the vice president there.
Oh my!
That can't be.
Your sister-in-law is really the vice president there?
Why are you shocked?
Do you think only your grandma is great but my sister-in-law isn't?
What a small world.
How can she be your sister-in-law?
Do you know the rumours going around at that hotel?
Rumours?
Do you think Ms Eun really did that?
That's murder. A crime!
How horrible.
I think Mrs Yeo's ghost stories are more horrible.
They say they can hear a wheelchair...
moving by the vice president's office at midnight.
You know Mrs Yeo was in a wheelchair.
If Ms Min's story is true, then what happened to Mrs Yeo...
Ms Eun.
What I'm saying is...
Who started this?
Who started this ridiculous rumour?
We don't know.
We just heard ourselves.
You're fired.
This is for talking such nonsense!
Many people walk around in that area.
How can you slap her in such a place?
They were talking nonsense!
I heard the rumour, too.
It's just a rumour.
There's no evidence to back it up.
You said rumours are scarier than the truth.
That's what you said.
That's...
Do you believe this too?
I can ignore this if I want to.
What I want to know is the truth.
The truth?
Yes, the truth.
So you believe in Kyung-chae's...
fiction rather than having faith in me, your own wife?
I want to believe you, more than anyone.
That means you don't believe me.
Stop this. Just ask me straight up.
Sure, let me ask you.
I've been curious.
It's not you, right?
You didn't do this, right?
Is this what you wanted to ask me since last night?
It's not me.
No matter what Kyung-chae says, it's not me.
I didn't do anything!
You choose.
Whether you believe your wife or Kyung-chae who is nothing to you.
Please drink this.
I know this is hard work even for young people.
It's okay.
I'm glad I can do something.
When you first woke up,
the doctor said familiar places will help you remember.
I asked you to work because of that.
But I'm afraid you're working too hard.
I have to remember so I can help Kyung-chae.
Take your time.
Please take your time.
I'm sure Kyung-chae is happy to have you near her.
Why don't you rest in my office?
Please have a seat.
No one will come in so take it easy. I have to go.
Since you're here, why don't you sit at your desk?
And look out the window.
I kept everything the same as it used to be.
Take your time and try to remember.
What shall we do today?
We can't dig...
more about the resort project because Hee-soo has hushed them.
Then the Lubyni contract...
Why are you looking at me like that?
Is something on my face?
You said I'm foolish.
But you're even more foolish.
Foolish...
It's not pleasant to hear that.
Please explain yourself. Why am I foolish?
Why did you make my dad work here?
- Why at the hotel... - You know very well.
No, you're lying.
It's not about revenge. You never thought that.
How can I face you if you're like this?
How much worse are you going to make me feel?
I didn't do this to make you feel bad.
I just wanted to do this.
CEO Jin Soo-hyuk.
President Min?
No, you're not the president anymore.
Why are you sitting there?
I'm just...
Do you remember something sitting there?
You were really mean to me back then.
Pardon?
I was?
Don't you remember?
It may be better that you don't remember.
So you're saying I was mean to you, Mr Han?
Me?
If you hadn't disapproved of us, our lives...
would be different from now.
By us, you mean...
Min Kyung-chae and Han Ji-sub.
The man that you would never accept as your son-in-law is me.
What are you doing?
- Are you okay? - My head...
It hurts.
Are you okay?
Go to Mr Jin's office.
Your dad didn't look good.
My dad?
Dad!
I think he has a headache.
Is it bad?
No, it's okay.
It's bearable.
It'll get better.
No. I think we should take him home.
He can't just stay here like this.
Don't you like it that we're here alone?
I like it.
It's cosy with just the two of us here.
Come to think of it,
I've always wanted to do this with you.
This is nice, just you and me.
I want to have a good relationship with you too.
Can you be more loving towards me?
I don't dislike you.
We just didn't click well in the beginning.
I know.
I'll be better from now on.
Your father said there's no one like you these days.
Honestly, I think father gives me more love than Ji-sub.
If he ever turns his back on me, I don't think I can bear it.
Although that would never happen.
That doesn't sound right.
Ji-sub should love you more than my husband does.
So don't rely on my husband but rely on yours!
Pardon?
Don't covet my husband.
Here, Mother.
This tastes so good.
When did you get home? Why aren't you at work?
Work isn't the problem now.
What else could be the problem? Work should be your priority!
Do you know what I heard today, Dad?
I'm not sure if I should believe this or not.
What should you believe or not, Pil-sub?
It's nothing, Mrs Gong.
It's nothing.
Come here.
What's going on now?
That family is so good at leaving me out of things.
Listen to me carefully, Dad.
Don't be shocked and keep your sanity.
Just get to the point. Stop beating around the bush!
What are you talking about?
Look at this.
This is an article written by Kyung-chae.
What did Ms Kyung-chae write for you to be like this?
This isn't fiction.
It's about Kyung-chae and Hee-soo.
This fiance who married the friend is Ji-sub.
Doesn't it just grab you?
Ms Kyung-chae isn't one to make up such a story.
Does this mean Hee-soo...
That's what I'm saying!
I was so shocked after reading this that...
I almost grilled my hand instead of the meat.
Then Hee-soo murdered...
This doesn't make sense at all!
How can Hee-soo kill her own father?
That can't be.
I'm sure it's not true. It's not.
That can't be.
Eun-chae told me that she saw Hee-soo...
in the house when it was on fire.
You know Eun-chae or Kyung-chae are not ones to tell lies.
I know that but...
How can Hee-soo...
What do you mean how can she? Come on!
Look at this!
I'll take care of him.
He's been having headaches frequently.
How about taking him to the doctor?
He doesn't want to go.
I think he doesn't like being treated like a patient.
I understand.
I think his memories are trying to return.
It may be hard but I hope he can bear this.
You're still worried about my dad.
Now do you know why you're a fool?
I'll get going now.
I want to love you again, but I have no right to love you.
Come on! Why are you so drunk, Mum?
Pil-sub. I was so happy today.
So I drank and even went to sing with Hee-soo!
Did you?
It must've been hard for you to humour my mum.
It wasn't hard at all.
I enjoyed being out with her.
I got closer to her and had a good time.
We did.
Where did you get so drunk?
Honey!
We drank and promised to be good to each other.
So please don't scold her.
Please, Father?
Father.
Hey. Put her down on the bed, Pil-sub.
Sure.
She reeks of alcohol.
Come on, Mum.
Why are you so heavy?
Are you upset with me, Father?
Why should I be upset with you?
You seem strange today.
You're not looking into my eyes and are not saying much.
Am I?
Did you have a good time with your mother-in-law?
Did it make you feel good to spend such time with her without me?
Mum. Did anything happen at home?
Did I do anything to upset him?
What could be wrong?
Even if something's wrong, he won't show it.
What's wrong with him?
You're late.
I went out with mother.
I know.
I heard from your mum.
Are you still upset over that senseless rumour?
Don't you trust me?
If you say it's not true, then I guess it's not.
I finally became close to mother for the first time since marriage.
I'll be good to her and she'll be good to me too.
I want to be like a daughter to her.
She only had two sons.
She said she doesn't know the joy of having a daughter.
I want to be like a daughter to her.
I want to scrub her back and go shopping with her.
When I become pregnant, I want to go see the doctor with her.
I got it.
I'll trust you.
I've nothing to do with Kyung-chae now.
I'll take your word for it.
I knew you would.
I'm going to bring up your promotion at the next board meeting.
You've been the GM for long enough.
How's your dad?
He won't be able to come in today.
I thought it would be better for him to rest today.
That's good.
I heard that Eun Hee-soo fired two employees at the shop.
Was there any problem?
Fired?
No. There wasn't any problem.
I think I know why she fired them.
I heard you fired two employees at the shop.
I had a good reason. Why?
Do I need your approval for that?
You didn't have any legitimate reason.
And I'm in charge of managing employees at the shop.
Then you should've done a better job.
They weren't doing their job.
They only gathered to gossip. Didn't you know that?
Gossip?
You couldn't stand them talking about you to others?
If you were so afraid of the rumours,
you shouldn't have done what you did.
Hire them back.
Do you think I'm doing this because of your third-rate fiction?
Ji-sub says he doesn't believe your word.
No matter what you say, he says he won't believe you.
I'm sorry the one that you want to shake up isn't budging.
Get out before I call security to force you out.
I can't let you interfere with my work...
just because you're the supervisor.
It's me, Ms Kyung-chae.
He's still calling her "Miss".
I wanted to meet with you today.
I have some questions to ask.
Do you have time for me today?
I'll be right there.
Thank you.
He's such a slave for the Min family.
Why is he still addressing her as miss?
What's this?
(The Women's Room)
What's this?
We're in trouble, Hee-soo.
This story that was published in the newspaper by Kyung-chae.
It's about you!
It's about you killing Eun Ki-man.
How we came to this house.
And you stealing Ji-sub to marry him.
How did you know about this?
Me knowing this isn't the problem.
Mr Han just read this and went out to meet Kyung-chae.
What? Father is meeting who?
What are we going to do now?
What if she blabs everything to your father?
Even about what happened to Eun Ki-man and her mum?
You know Mr Han will believe anything Kyung-chae says.
Why did you want to meet me?
I wanted to confirm something with you.
Sure, go ahead.
I read the article that you wrote.
I know you won't publish something like that for no reason.
I know you well.
Did Hee-soo really...
murder someone?
She set the house on fire and ultimately killed Mrs Yeo?
Did Hee-soo really do that?
Yes, she did.
