(Episode 47)
Ms Hong is taking longer than I expected.
You should get going.
Don't go, In Kyung.
Don't go.
It doesn't look like you can see Ms Hong today.
Sorry, I think...
I was too discourteous.
I apologise.
It looks like you drank quite a bit.
Are you going to be all right?
Yes, I'm fine.
It's not because I'm drunk.
It's really not because I'm drunk.
I should get going now.
Have a good night.
(Queen Salon)
You're back.
Did something happen?
Why do you look so troubled?
Nothing happened.
I'm just a little tired.
You don't look tired. It looks like you have a lot on your mind.
Right. I understand.
I'm sure you felt it, too.
Jung Ho used me as an excuse, but he actually came to see you.
Ms Hong.
I think I know why he came here to see you at this late hour,
but I can't figure out what's going on in your mind now.
What does he mean to you?
Both Han Soo and I think that Mr Nam is...
a good person.
We're grateful for all of his help.
He's a good person, and you're grateful for his help.
And?
That's all.
It looks like you've been drinking.
Why did you drink?
Are you anxious thinking about the losses you have to deal with...
after announcing that you want to divorce me?
Or...
are things not going well with your girlfriend?
Think however you want...
and say whatever you want.
Can you have some decency and try to be a little less obvious?
We're not divorced yet, which means I'm still your wife.
Sure.
Soon, you'll no longer be able to demand your way like this.
Enjoy while it lasts, Seo Yeon.
So he's going to keep disrespecting me.
Nam Jung Ho.
Will you really give up everything and divorce your wife?
Then the president position at Baekdu Films will become vacant,
which means I can have a chance at it, too.
So are you saying that you don't agree with Jung Ho?
That's right.
A big war will begin between our families if we get divorced.
I don't want that to happen.
You're wise.
But it doesn't look like Jung Ho will be dissuaded easily.
I think he has already made up his mind.
That's why I wanted to speak with you.
Please help me, Father.
Help with what?
There's actually...
a woman who is bothering me.
A woman?
Who is it?
The rookie actress, Kang Hee Joo.
You must know her, too. There were a lot of talks about her audition.
Yes, I know her.
Are you saying that Jung Ho wants to divorce you because of her?
Yes. Based on what I've seen, that is what's happening.
I went to one of the shoots...
and saw how he was looking at her.
It was different.
Well, those things can happen for men when they work.
You've lived with Jung Ho for long enough to know what he's like.
I'm sure it's nothing serious.
You can say that because you don't know how he has been acting lately.
There are two types of winds that can affect men.
One shakes them up from their roots,
and the other one just gently rattles small branches.
If you cause a fuss and try to interfere when it's the latter,
you can actually end up shaking the roots, too.
Just give him some time if it's about a woman. He'll come back.
No.
He's not in his right mind at all these days.
I see no sign of the wind stopping anytime soon.
You're at Baekdu Films?
Then you won't have time to see me.
No, I'll meet you there.
Yeon Woo.
There is something...
I have to tell you today.
The hair and makeup room? Okay.
Gosh, what is wrong with your skin today?
It's dehydrated. The makeup isn't going on well.
Really?
Could it be because I didn't get a good sleep last night?
Goodness. Sleep is so important for beauty.
Why did you not sleep well last night?
Did something happen?
She probably couldn't fall asleep since she has a lot on her mind.
- Good morning. - Choon Ja.
Madam Yoon from Pyeongchang-dong is here. Go attend to her.
Okay. I'm done with In Kyung anyway.
In Kyung, see you later.
I have to attend to the VIP customer.
Can you see how dull and dehydrated my skin got overnight?
I was tossing and turning all night because of you.
- What kept you up? - I spoke...
to Jung Ho on the phone last night.
He said you also know about him wanting to get divorced.
Yes, I heard about it...
at Baekdu Films.
You said nothing is going on. I wonder why he wants to get divorced.
He knows that he'll lose everything and get kicked out empty-handedly.
Gosh, what a disaster.
Why would he get kicked out empty-handedly?
I told you that it's an arranged marriage.
If they get divorced, Baekdu Group's loss will be immense.
That's why Chairman Nam told him to take responsibility by taking...
his hands off of everything if he wants to create that kind of mess.
That's crazy.
I don't even have to ask you why Jung Ho's wife came by yesterday.
It's obvious.
Whether you wanted it or not,
it looks like you lit the fuse.
What did you just say?
In Kyung actually gave birth to the baby.
She really...
gave birth?
Are you sure? Is it accurate information?
I told you about the midwife the other day. I met her in person,
and she confirmed that In Kyung gave birth to the baby.
My goodness.
- Then where is the baby? - That's all I know.
She said that the baby looked a little weak,
but she doesn't know whether he's alive or not.
But I'm certain...
that there's no kid around In Kyung now.
I can't believe it.
First,
find out where he is as soon as possible.
I want to know if the kid is alive and where he is if he's alive.
From his name to his age, find out everything about him.
Don't leave anything out.
Okay, I will. Please consider it done.
It's driving you crazy just as I expected.
(Baekdu Films)
In Kyung.
You gave birth?
You actually gave birth to that baby?
Ms Kang. You said you'll stay and practise after this, right?
Yes, Mr Nam.
Mr Cha.
- Yes? - Gosh.
Is something bothering you, Mr Cha?
You look very pale.
You do look pale.
Let's wrap up the meeting here.
Good work, everyone.
Thank you.
Ms Kang.
I'd like to have a word with you.
Sir, Chairman Nam is waiting for you in your office.
You should go now.
Go ahead.
Let's go to somewhere quiet and talk.
I don't have anything to talk to you about.
If it's something you can't say here,
I have no reason to hear you out.
That little...
- What are you doing now? - In Kyung.
Answer my questions truthfully.
- Why do I have to do that? - Don't be cheeky.
I'm trying very hard to restrain my anger now.
I'm not interested in your emotional state.
That baby.
Did you...
give birth to that baby?
Answer me.
That day, you told me that the baby died. Was it a lie?
That day?
Oh, right.
That night, I begged you...
to help me save the baby's life in the torrential rain,
but you just abandoned me there. You mean that night, right?
Stop wasting my time and just answer my question.
- Did you... - How dare you.
How can you think that you can dare to bring this up?
How dare you talk about my baby!
I don't want to bring it up, either. I don't even want to know more.
Just answer me.
What happened to the baby?
Ms Kang, I'd like to have a word with you.
- You must be nervous. - What?
Why are you bringing it up all of a sudden?
Didn't you say that you have nothing to do with the baby?
You tried to kill him.
Why do you want to know about him suddenly?
Just answer my question.
What happened to him?
Did he die?
Is he alive?
Well...
What do you think could've happened to him?
Keep wondering in fear.
That's your punishment.
Kang In Kyung!
I'm not done yet.
Do you want to see me going crazy?
Tell me. What happened?
I'm asking what happened!
Cha Min Woo, what are you doing now?
What is going on?
You two are brothers-in-law. Before we even go there,
how can you punch each other at work because of a woman?
Does that make any sense to you?
I'm sorry.
Father, that was...
I don't want to hear it!
Jung Ho, I will not allow you to get divorced.
I can't stand that all of this mess was caused by one woman.
Father.
I told you that she has nothing to do with me wanting to get divorced.
Then why did you punch Min Woo?
You can't even separate your personal emotions from work.
You're in no position to raise your voice now.
I want you to take your hands off of "Mask".
Min Woo will make all decisions related to the film.
- Father. - Don't you dare complain.
If you do, I'll make you take your hands off of the entire company.
Min Woo.
Sort everything out. I don't want there to be any noises.
- Do you understand what I mean? - Yes, Sir.
I'll take care of it.
Why did Min Woo ask me about Perky out of the blue?
How does he know that I gave birth to Perky?
Ms Kang.
Stop it unless you want to ruin the entire shoot.
- What are you doing now? - I told you.
I clearly said to you that I'll drive you out of the industry...
and that you won't be able to hold out.
I must say, it worked out a lot more easily than I expected.
What are you...
- trying to say? - I'm telling you that you're fired.
Actress Kang Hee Joo...
has been fired from my film, "Mask".
What?
Why?
- What's the reason? - Do you have to ask?
You caused a ruckus in front of Chairman Nam.
Did you think there would be no consequences?
Did you actually think that you'd be able to be in my film after that?
How can you blame it on me?
That is complete nonsense.
Where are you going?
Are you going to beg Nam Jung Ho?
The sight of him getting worked up because of you got Chairman Nam mad.
Do you want to make the situation worse or what?
Jung Ho is getting divorced because of you.
Are you trying to cause a rift between him and his father now?
And about your baby.
Do you think...
that I won't be able to find out if you keep it from me?
You better not mess with me.
Fine.
Do whatever you want.
Go investigate all you want.
Cha Min Woo.
So this is your game plan.
Do you think...
I'll back off like this?
Father, I just need a few minutes of your time.
Please let me explain.
What more is there to explain?
You and Seo Yeon are having problems because of Kang Hee Joo.
That's not true.
Father.
What...
What did I just see?
- Father, please. - Step aside!
I couldn't get through to you, so I was worried.
Yeon Woo.
Let's...
end this.
I wanted to say it to you in person.
I don't believe you. Don't be like this, Ms Lee.
Take care.
Thanks for everything.
I will...
miss you sometimes.
You can't do this. I cannot let you go like this.
- We cannot break up like this. - What's the matter with you?
- Do you not understand what I said? - No.
I don't understand it. I don't even want to understand it.
Yeon Woo. Don't be like this, please.
Gosh, Father.
How...
How could you...
Father, I can explain.
It's...
What is this mess?
I must say, you're one gutsy, daring young lady.
I'm aware of how you must view me now.
But I thought I should explain what happened,
so I came to see you even though it could look rude.
If that's the case, you shouldn't have come here.
Where did you get the courage to come here? Leave immediately.
There is really nothing going on between Mr Nam and me.
I'm sure you already know everything.
Mr Nam helped me in the past,
so it's true that I feel grateful and indebted to him.
But that's everything.
We're nothing more than a producer and an actress,
- and it won't change. - Even if it was a misunderstanding,
I saw my son punching my son-in-law because of you.
I don't want to listen to your excuses. Leave now.
Ms Hong trained me.
- What? - I care about my future.
I'm not dumb enough to ruin my own future.
Offering me another chance was a big decision for you.
I will not waste that chance like this.
Go on.
Mr Cha...
notified me that I've been fired from "Mask".
He has full authority over those matters as he's the director.
Sir.
Please give me one last chance.
Why should I?
I'll be sure...
to make "Mask" become a big hit.
I like that you're so confident,
but confidence alone isn't enough to make a film become a hit.
If you're here to ask me for such a favour,
you should present me with a card that can entice me.
I will bet...
my life on the film.
If...
the film doesn't yield the result that you want,
I will never set foot in the film industry.
You're willing to bet your entire career as an actress on the film.
Where does your confidence come from?
I believe in myself.
Here.
By the way,
do you really think that it's okay to bring Seung Joon here?
I mean, In Kyung will also visit occasionally.
I'll be fine.
I want to bring Seung Joon here...
- because of her. - Sorry?
Geum Soon, does that mean you're...
No. Now is not the time.
But we should tell In Kyung about Seung Joon...
after she becomes successful.
I think bringing him here is the right thing to do...
for their future as she'll at least be able to see him occasionally.
- Oh, hello. - My gosh. What are all those?
Oh, boy.
You've already prepared so much.
So it's really happening.
Oh, right. Did you say that it's your nephew?
He must look like you since he's your nephew.
What?
Well, he is...
Right. He's my nephew, so he looks a lot like me.
You silly. He won't look like you because you're a complete stranger.
By the way, who's going to look after him when you two are working?
You know Young Soo's mum, right?
I'm going to ask her for help.
What are you talking about? We're a big family.
Why would you ask a neighbour to look after him?
- I'll do it. - Pardon me?
Well, you're busy. You have to deliver milk, too.
I only work very early in the morning.
I'm the one who has the most amount of free time.
I should look after him.
You know how much I love kids.
My gosh. You love kids?
That's right, you wench. Not only do I love kids,
but I'm also a great babysitter. Don't you worry.
I'll take great care of him, okay?
Ms Park, I'm so sorry.
I have to do this, though.
I trust that you'll understand everything later on.
You probably thought I'd give up.
Are you out of your mind?
How dare you show up here?
You'll find out soon anyway,
but I wanted to let you know as soon as possible to torture you more.
You're so desperate that you've gone crazy.
What's the problem? Are you mad that you got fired?
Who's fired?
- I'll see you at the next shoot. - What?
I bet you don't want to believe it.
Ask Chairman Nam directly if you want verification.
You allowed her to come back?
You saw why she shouldn't be in the film.
Yes, I saw it clearly with my own two eyes.
However,
she proposed a very interesting deal to me today.
She's basically betting her entire life on me.
She promised to leave the industry if the film isn't successful.
Father.
I'll be sure to make "Mask" become a hit.
We don't need an inexperienced actress like Kang Hee Joo.
I'll make it happen as the director.
Of course. I know that you'll do a great job.
But if we let her go now,
we'll struggle to find her replacement.
We'll also have to discard the films we've shot and retake the scenes.
The cost isn't even the main issue.
We'll have to postpone the release date.
Father, I can certainly take care of...
It'll create immense additional stress for you.
Is he basically notifying me of his decision now?
It'll be a great thing if everything about the film goes swimmingly.
Even if any issue arises,
I'll hold Kang Hee Joo responsible,
so you're not losing anything in this deal.
What a dynamic day for you.
You went back and forth between paradise and nightmare all day long.
I ended up in paradise, so it's all good.
But still,
you shouldn't have bet your entire life and career on it.
I only said it because I'm confident that I won't lose.
You're the one who taught me that the best defence is a good offence.
I want to live like that from now on.
I can't lose everything while waiting for things to happen.
Don't worry.
I'm confident.
So...
I still can't have my way with anything.
Chairman Nam doesn't trust me at all.
But...
If...
If he finds out about In Kyung giving birth to my child...
How did I get here?
I went through so much to come this far.
I can't just sit around and have everything taken away from me.
I will never let that happen.
(Queen Salon)
They're going to bring a kid?
Yes, that's their plan.
Chil Bong's brother is ill,
so his family can't take care of the kid at the moment.
Are you saying they're adopting his nephew?
Yes, you can say that.
Gosh. They love each other so much,
yet they can't conceive. That's why they decided to raise their nephew.
I feel so bad for them.
I'm sure they'll have a baby soon.
But when the kid comes,
the house will feel more lively and full.
How old is he?
Well... Did they say he's three years old?
Yes, I think that's what I heard.
He's three?
If my Perky was alive,
he'd also be turning three this year.
Yes, he would be.
It's cold. I'm worried that he might catch a cold.
Don't worry. I'm keeping him warm.
Let's hurry. We might miss the bus.
- Okay. - Let's go.
Cha Min Woo.
Wait just a little bit.
I'll show up before you with your son.
(Baekdu Films, Filming Set)
Gosh, why is my makeup not sitting well on my skin today?
I'm upset.
Let's try to finish the shoot as soon as possible today.
I'm not feeling so great.
Okay. I'll do my best, Ms Yoon.
Kang In Kyung.
This is the end of you.
Follow the storyboard and locate the actors.
Okay, I will.
All right. This is the scene where Jin Ah and Hye Young meet.
Ms Yoon, please have a seat here.
Hye Young...
should sit in front of the blue cup.
We have to show that Jin Ah is repenting her sins,
so she needs to sit in front of the white cup.
Mr Cha.
You know that the left side of my face looks better on camera.
Let's just go like this.
No, we can't. Please switch seats.
We can just swap the cups.
I don't want to.
I always drink coffee in white cups.
Holding a white cup makes my skin look...
more radiant on camera compared to when holding a blue cup.
Right, but...
the colour white symbolises...
Gosh, you're so fusty.
The audience won't think about those things.
We just have to look pretty while we drink this.
This smells really nice.
What kind of tea is this?
Wait!
Put it down.
Don't drink it.
What's the matter with him?
What did he do?
Mr Cha.
I see that you're getting cheeky with me.
I need to keep my composure.
Even if this goes wrong, I can find a way to get out of it.
Yes.
That's actually not a bad idea.
If I can't kill her,
I should turn her into a murderer.
Jin Ah.
So the man you loved...
is Ji Han?
Yes.
Gosh, I can't believe it.
How... How can something like that happen?
There's definitely something in that tea.
I really can't believe it.
How can Ji Han be that man?
My gosh!
What are you doing now?
Gosh. My goodness!
I was fully immersed in the scene. What will you do about this?
I'm sorry.
- Are you all right? - Gosh, seriously.
Mr Cha, I cannot work with such an inexperienced actress.
I'm really sorry.
Thanks to Ms Kang,
it looks like we should wrap up the shoot here.
Gosh, this is crazy. What are you going to do about all of this?
Goodness. Mr Cha, I...
Today...
I don't think I can...
Ms Yoon!
- Ms Yoon! - Are you okay?
Ms Yoon.
