Episode 53
Are you going to lie, even after this?
Ms. Bae...
I don't want to look at you.
Get out!
How could you such a thing
and lie about it?
I didn't give him the document.
Then how can you explain these pictures?
Well...
Just be honest, Ms. Oh.
Yes.
Simply denying it won't work.
We have proof here.
I don't understand.
Ms. Choi, you sent me on this errand.
Ms. Oh, you're using me
as your excuse now?
How can you be so brazen?
You told me deliver some documents.
I didn't know what was in the envelope.
I just handed it over.
You think we will buy that lie?
What about the money we found in your desk?
Ms. Oh, this case will be
dealt by civil and criminal laws.
Be prepared.
That isn't mine.
Stop it, Oh Bom.
I don't want to hear any more from you.
Get her out of here.
Go on in.
I must reveal the truth.
I didn't do it.
Ms. Oh,
you doing this won't help.
Calm down.
If you're innocent,
just wait until the investigation is done.
I was set up.
Sure, sure.
I want to believe you, too.
Please talk to Ms. Bae for me.
That was me in the pictures,
but I never handed over the secret recipe.
I don't know about that money either.
If I did get money from someone
why would I leave it in the office?
If I really meant to sell off the secret recipe,
I should've sold off other recipes, too.
That's right.
If you are innocent,
it'll come out during the investigation.
Please.
You're the only one who can help me.
Okay.
Don't be too upset, mom.
At least we found out
who she really is before it's too late.
What did she mean by that?
You sent her on an errand?
She hates me because of what happened with Taeho.
But why would she lie about that here?
She's desperate.
What she did is about to come out,
so she would say anything.
Let's investigate this thoroughly.
If we wrongly accused Bom in this...
I will look into this thoroughly.
You're right. She shouldn't be wrongly accused.
Mr. An, please make sure
other employees aren't affected by this.
Okay.
I can't believe it.
Oh Bom kept telling obvious lies.
She kept saying she's innocent,
but her stories didn't add up.
I was quite fond of her at first,
so I'm quite disappointed.
I knew she comes from a poor family,
but I never imagined
she would do such a thing.
All right.
You two may go now.
Okay.
Aran.
Do you know anything about what's going on?
I'm sure worried that this may damage Punggildang.
I see.
The leaked information doesn't seem to be going
around so let's look into this.
I can't go home like this.
I must clear my name.
Ms. Choi.
What are you doing here?
Please reconsider.
It's not a matter about me leaving Punggildang.
This isn't fair.
This isn't fair for me either.
I lost everything to the likes of you,
and that outrages me.
So you go through it, too.
I lost everything because of you.
It's your turn to lose everything.
Well, you don't have much to lose, right?
I know that there are no witness or evidence
that you lied to me.
But even if you never tell the truth,
I will somehow get it out.
So what?
Even if my mom found out that it was me who
stole the recipe then framed you, so what?
I'll plead temporary insanity
over what you did to me.
She'll understand.
I'm her only daughter.
Ms. Choi.
Ms. Bae.
Stop it.
Mom.
Bom, you clinging on to Aran won't resolve this.
Go home.
We'll look into this thoroughly.
Yes, go home.
Stop harassing me now.
You must listen to me to investigate this.
I really am innocent.
You're banned from here during the investigation.
Let's go, Mr. An.
Okay.
Huh?
The interest is due tomorrow.
And like I said last time,
everyone must pay more for the expenses.
You got that?
Bom, you agreed, right?
You'll pay a little more?
Your uncle and I can't pay more.
You are an employee at Punggildang
so you're more well off than us.
Sure.
You earn the most money out of all of us.
I...
You don't want to?
You won't pay more?
You're close with the CEO of Punggildang, right?
We aren't friends.
She's my sister-in-law. We're family.
There is a situation at work.
Could you please talk to her for me?
Did you cause trouble?
I was falsely accused of something.
I'm sure that girl is harassing you
because she lost her fiance to you.
I'm sure of it.
Aran wouldn't do that.
Sure she would.
Didn't you see her destroying our pub?
What happened?
What's going on?
Are you about to be kicked out of there?
You finally got into that company
and you're about to be kicked out already?
Tell her, so that your aunt can help you.
Mom, this won't solve anything.
Tell me.
You didn't leak the information, did you?
I'm stupid for asking you.
If you were capable of doing that,
you wouldn't be living with us.
What are you going to do?
They said they'll go by civil and criminal laws?
Can you handle what's about to happen?
What if they come after me for being your mom?
That would be a bigger mess.
Oh gee.
Over there.
There they are.
Mom.
Hey, boss lady!
Hey, boss lady.
You kicked her out for
selling company's secret recipe
or something?
I know you don't like my daughter,
but you can't do this to her.
To be honest, she isn't my birth daughter,
but I never taught her to steal.
Stop, mom. Please.
I can't stop.
They're the kind to torment you to the end.
They're the ones who got the recipe stolen,
but they'll be sure to make you pay.
They are all thieves.
We are thoroughly investigating this matter,
so please do not worry.
Get off your high horse.
I swear on my life that
she didn't sell the recipe.
Mom, don't even associate with her kind.
What did you say? Look here.
I know that you're doing this out of hatred
towards Bom for losing your fiance to her!
This is a place of business.
Please quiet down.
Oh gee.
Hey!
Don't you dare lay a hand on me.
You'd better watch out!
I'll tell the world about
how you Punggildang people kicked
my poor daughter to the curb
after falsely accusing her!
That's not all.
I'll spread rumors that you kicked her out
without giving her this month's salary.
Why are you talking about my salary?
Please don't this.
Let's go.
This all started because of money.
What are you doing!
Let go of me!
It's like talking to a brick wall with those people.
Just ignore them.
I'm sure Bom was blinded by greed.
Afterall, she did grow up under a mother like that.
(Looking for the owner of this yellow hairpin)
Bom was acting like she was so smart, but
she's just been letting them get the best of her.
Don't worry.
We have Jeongmi.
She is their family so
they'll resolve this quietly for our sake.
I'm impressed by Bom that
she decided to stay at home
even after knowing that you're not
her birth mother.
Where else could she go?
Hello.
Huh?
I can't stand the sight of you.
This is all because of you.
You seem to hate me so much now,
but there's a fine line between love and hate.
There are so many mysterious things in the world,
but you being here is what I don't get the most.
You seem to be able-bodied, and
you used to be a successful at your previous job.
Why would you volunteer to be a slave here?
What do you mean a slave?
I'm thinking of learning her trade secrets,
and start a franchise of this pub.
You're making things up.
You like Bom that much?
Yes.
Just go.
Be nice to him.
He's thinking of only one woman.
This isn't for Bom.
He's ruining her future.
Hey, look.
Everyone has his or her own destined love.
I think you are attracted to Bom because
you're bored of your rich, luxurious life
so you want Bom who's warm and homely.
But Bom isn't the one for you.
You know how poor she is.
So you need to get this sorted out, and
go back to where you belong.
I will pretend I didn't hear that.
That's how love is.
Let me tell you something.
It's actually Bom's birthday today.
I marked it on the calendar,
but no one has noticed it.
Even she has forgotten that it's her birthday.
What's so important about her birthday?
Comfort her today.
Maybe she'll start liking you.
Thank you so much for helping me out.
Hi, honey.
Watch Chisaem.
I'm going to the pub.
You don't have to go.
Taeho is there to help.
Hang out with me instead.
We don't have time to have fun.
If we want to pay less
for monthly living expenses
we need to work so we can say our piece.
All right.
But stay with me just a little while.
I fell asleep first
while waiting for Chisaem to fall asleep.
Oh gee.
Unbelievable.
What, what, what?
You know.
Oh gee.
Hey.
What's this mess?
This is my ledger.
You can read books and
act like you're so smart.
Why are you ripping my ledger?
Oh gee.
Why are you crying?
You're crying because I hit you?
Stop it.
Oh no.
Why are you crying?
She hit me.
I did not.
Look at what she did to my ledger.
That's why I gave her a noogie.
Midal.
Children tend to play around with things.
You didn't have to hit her because of this.
Hey, look.
She isn't even yours. Why are you taking her side?
I've been holding this back, but
you've been neglecting Baedal
ever since that kid moved in here.
When did I neglect him?
I'm fine, Midal.
You're not fine.
You can't go near your wife because of this girl.
Jeongmi gets terrible morning sickness.
I wonder if she's eating well.
It's her second pregnancy at her old age
so I'm sure she's having a hard time.
Jeongmi.
Ms. Lee.
Then I'll move out with Chisaem.
Don't be so drastic.
What's going on?
- Honey, honey. / - Let's go, Chisaem.
Mom.
Grandma.
What are you doing here?
Hey, look.
You're living here for free.
How can you give me another mouth to feed?
She's only going to stay here a few days.
Ms. Kim.
How can you send a niece to your daughter
who has just gotten married?
I'm afraid a rumor might get started that
my brother got married to a widow with a child.
Why would people say that?
It's not true.
Whatever!
That's your problem.
Do something so I don't have to deal with this mess.
Gee!
Unbelievable.
You pretended to be single to get married.
What are you doing here with your daughter?
You'll be twice divorced at this rate.
Don't do this.
Chisaem.
Let's go live with grandma.
No.
I'm going to stay with mom.
- Chisaem. / - Oh no.
Think about it, honey.
Rather than Chisaem staying here
being scolded and not calling you mom,
it might be better that she goes with her grandma.
Is that how you feel?
She came to me after nearly being
kicked out by her dad and stepmom.
I can't send her away again.
I can hear you two nearing a breakup already.
How can you keep her here?
I don't care if you get kicked out, too.
- Mom. / - Mother.
Jeongmi.
Oh gee.
Why did Ms. Oh leave that money in her desk?
She shouldn't have gotten caught.
I know.
Doesn't it feel like she's being set up
because of what happened with Mr. An?
Right? Right?
Mr. Yang.
Are you suggesting that someone
has set Bom up to frame her?
No.
There will be a thorough investigation on this.
Until the investigation is finished
be careful of what you say.
If there's an investigation,
shouldn't they start with you?
What are you talking about?
You know very well
what I'm talking about.
Come on, Mr. Kang.
Calm down.
- Calm down. / - Relax.
Good work.
I'll see you there.
Good work.
Let's not see each other ever again.
That hurts.
If there is a problem, give me a call anytime.
What are you doing here?
Where did he go?
Who?
What are you talking about?
Your accomplice.
I told you.
I'll find out what you did to Bom.
I don't know what you're talking about.
Hey, you.
What did Choi Aran give you orders to do?
What did you two do?
What are you talking about?
Stop right there.
Stop.
Don't waste your time, Maru.
If you get involved with Bom,
you'll face many problems on your hands, too.
She has a knack for ruining
the lives of those around her.
Unless you want to be in hot water, too,
I'd stay away from her if I were you.
Bom, please come to the Hangang Cafe.
The call is forwarded to voicemail.
I have something to say to you today.
I will wait until you come here.
Ms. Oh.
I don't know if I should tell you this, Mr. An.
It's about Ms. Oh Bom.
Something happened while you were away.
What are you talking about?
I see.
I didn't even realize what was going on with her.
I am so foolish.
Why are you doing this to Bom?
Take your anger out on me instead.
If I do,
only you will be in pain.
I want you both to suffer.
Aran, how...
Please don't do this.
I beg you.
You're begging for her sake right now?
This isn't just for Bom's sake.
It's for your sake, too.
This isn't who you are.
Oh? Who am I, then?
You spent your allowance volunteering at
orphanages and retirement homes in middle school.
For vacations, you went abroad to meet children you
were sponsoring that you never went on a real trip.
You even bragged that you still contact them
and exchange gifts with them.
I don't want to hear it.
Who wants to hear those stupid stories?
Yes, this is who I am, too.
I, too, have a cruel side.
You shouldn't have made me this way.
Aran.
How dare you come here!
I couldn't sit back and wait.
I have nothing to hear from you.
Please go home.
Please tell them the truth, Ms. Choi.
At least call that man who got
the document from me.
If we ask that man in the picture,
the truth will come to light.
We'll do that for our investigation.
I don't know what's going on, you're so brazen.
How dare you come here!
Seeing you makes me sick to my stomach,
so get out!
There's no one here who'll believe you.
You pretended to be nice,
and then, did all those things behind our backs.
Who will believe you?
Just leave.
You're causing a scene here.
If you keep acting like this, Bom,
this problem will only get bigger.
Please listen to me, Ms. Bae.
Get out.
Give it to me.
No, it's mine.
Give it to me.
Mom. Mom.
How dare you!
Not only did you take Aran's fiance from her,
you also tried to ruin our company?
I don't want to look at you.
Get out!
Leave before things get worse.
You thought you would be forgiven
if you come crying and begging to us?
Mr. Choi. Mr. Choi.
I'm innocent.
Please believe me.
I don't want to hear it anymore.
Please, Mr. Choi.
Mr. Choi. Mr. Choi.
Mr. Choi.
Daddy, daddy, daddy.
Mr. Choi, Mr. Choi.
Mr. Choi.
Ms. Oh.
I really didn't do it.
I'm innocent.
I'm sorry.
This is all my fault.
You were falsely accused because of me.
I told you I'm not interested in Taeho anymore.
I'm begging and apologizing to you on behalf
of Taeho. How can you do this to me?
Could you really go on without him?
Was your love that insignificant?
Can you live with the fact that you lost Taeho
to that nobody?
I shouldn't say this about my son, but you need to
get him back even if it's to just dump him again.
As a woman, I'm too upset and
I want to take your side.
Take this to Taeho's place
and talk to him.
I don't want to.
Aran.
Taeho has never gone on blind dates.
You were the only woman in his life.
He broke my heart saying he'd only marry you...
You can't leave him over something like this.
Oh, I forgot.
I should've given this back to him.
This looks like the card key to his apartment.
Mr. An, I was just about to call you.
I'll go to your place.
It's faster that way.
Ms. Oh.
This place is really close to my place.
I took a shortcut and I got here quickly.
I moved here to live close to you.
I see.
I'll get going now.
It's your birthday today, right?
What?
You're right...
I was so busy that I forgot.
Then you didn't get to eat birthday soup?
No.
Do you want to have dinner with me?
No thank you. I should go.
I haven't eaten all day.
Come and eat with me.
Come on.
Unbelievable.
Sit comfortably.
Want some help?
No.
Just sit and prepare to be surprised.
Happy birthday.
I only have instant soup and instant rice,
but please enjoy.
This is the most special birthday soup ever.
The door was left open.
I left it open because I'm afraid of you.
It's okay, right?
Don't worry. I won't attack you.
I didn't even know it's my birthday.
I had such a rough day.
I'm smiling thanks to you.
Thank you.
Thank you for smiling.
Kang Maru.
Do you know where I am?
Do you know who Oh Bom is with?
What?
I'm eating with you,
but I don't feel comfortable.
I'm afraid I might get you in trouble again.
Don't say that in front of your birthday meal.
I'll make you great instant coffee for dessert.
Oh Bom.
Maru.
Come with me.
Why are you doing this?
Come with me right now.
Maru.
Kang Maru!
How could you do this?
What are you talking about?
There must be some sort of misunderstanding.
Misunderstanding?
There is no misunderstanding.
I just saw you and An together.
We were just having dinner.
I have been trying to clear my name all day
and got water thrown at me.
Mr. An comforted me.
What about me?
I could've comforted you.
Well...
Why can't you say anything?
Mr. Kang.
Bom and I were just having a meal.
I don't know why I'm making excuses to you.
You seem to be too worked up.
Go home.
I'll take Bom home.
Hey look, Mr. An.
Who are you to take care of Bom?
Stop it, Maru.
Oh Bom.
Go home.
What are you all doing here?
Ms. Choi.
Aran.
Both of you, get a grip.
Look at you two.
Don't act so immature over her.
You...
Whatever you try to set me up with,
I won't sit back and be a victim.
I will clear my name
and get back at you.
How dare you.
I won't be intimidated.
I won't let her do this to me anymore.
I'm home.
Did you drink?
I'm sorry.
Gee.
Jia is asleep.
Why did you do that?
Why did you make that call to me?
I don't want to deal with a drunk.
You have nothing to do with Bom and me.
Just take care of Mr. An.
I have nothing to do with you and Bom?
Let me tell you a secret.
That's alright.
I don't care what secret you have.
I'll tell you.
That man you've been calling your father,
is Oh Bom's birth father.
The girl you like
is my parents' daughter.
What are you talking about?
Father, Ms. Bae.
(Looking for the owner of this yellow hairpin)
That hairpin...
I've seen that pin.
What are you talking about?
