(Episode 61)
Who's here at this late hour?
In Kyung.
Let go!
Was it a prank or what?
Do you want to die?
You're crazy. You've gone insane.
Yes, I have completely lost my mind.
It'd be strange for a mum who lost her son to be in her right mind.
How can any mum be fine in this situation? Do you call that normal?
Step aside. I need to meet with Chairman Nam.
I'm going to tell him everything you did...
and what kind of human trash you are.
Nothing...
scares me any more.
Really?
But...
will you be able to keep that attitude after listening to this?
Mum!
- Mum! - Seung Joon.
Mum, Mum, Mum...
You...
What did you do to Seung Joon?
What on earth did you do to him?
Listen to me carefully now.
If you want to hear this kid saying "Mum" again,
you better leave here immediately.
Also, cancel the police report right away.
- What? - Don't make me repeat myself.
If you want this kid to live,
you'll have to bury this quietly.
No.
No, my Seung Joon.
You should've listened to me when I warned you.
Who should've listened to you?
Father.
It's a line from a new script I'm currently working on.
What is that in your hand?
Oh, it's a voice recorder.
I want to use it to record ideas I come up with for my script.
Let's go in, Father.
All right.
(Queen Salon)
So does Cha Min Woo really have Seung Joon now?
He even has Seung Joon's voice recorded?
My goodness. I suspected it but did not want to believe it.
How can he kidnap his own son?
How can he call himself a human? He's worse than lowly beasts.
Ms Hong.
Seung Joon...
Seung Joon said...
He said, "Mum."
I've never heard him saying that word.
I can't believe I heard it after Min Woo...
stole him from me.
But there's nothing I can do.
How can I call myself a mum?
How... I don't deserve to be a mother.
Don't say that. Who is going to find him if you don't stay strong?
Let's try to come up with a solution.
The missing child report we filed.
I think we should cancel it.
Do you want to give Cha Min Woo what he wants?
I can't make a risky deal...
over Seung Joon.
We should cancel it and try to find him.
Geum Soon will have to cancel it, then.
- What will you tell her? - I can't tell her the truth.
Min Woo told me...
to bury it quietly.
I guess...
I'll have to tell her...
that I've found Seung Joon.
- What? - That's the only way...
we can...
end this quietly.
I cancelled the report.
- Thanks, Geum Soon. - In Kyung,
is Seung Joon really okay?
You should bring him home if you've found him.
No.
If I do that,
Min Woo might try to harm him again.
Min Woo cannot find out...
that we found Seung Joon.
Then where is he now? Is he at the hair salon?
That's not a safe place for him, either.
He's with Ms Hong's friend now.
I'm going to have him stay there for a little while...
until he gets off Min Woo's radar.
This whole thing must've terrified him.
Will it really be okay for him to be away from us?
We have to get through this.
We'll have to endure it even if we miss him.
Only then,
we'll be able to keep him safe.
I did what you wanted me to do since you told me to...
but I'm not sure.
I don't know if this is the right way to go about it.
I'll talk to my mum about it,
so just pretend not to know anything.
You can't just leave him at her friend's place like that.
You have to let me see him at least.
I had no choice.
As you expected, Min Woo is trying to take Seung Joon from me...
after seeing him.
What did you just say? Tell me. Did something happen?
He has been lurking around the hair salon lately.
He also threatened me and said that he'll take Seung Joon from me.
My goodness. How shameless.
He abandoned the two of you. What's his problem now?
Does he want Seung Joon now because he's his son?
Then...
how long will Seung Joon stay there?
Just for a little while.
I'll bring him back home soon.
But...
is he with people whom we can trust?
Yes.
I know them well, too. You have nothing to worry about.
Still, you should've let me see him before sending him to them.
You, heartless girl.
Mum!
Mum, Mum, Mum...
Seung Joon called me Mum.
Seung Joon.
I'll come and get you soon.
We can meet again very soon.
Don't cry and wait for Mum,
okay?
(Baekdu Films)
As you wanted,
I cancelled the police report.
Give Seung Joon back to me now.
I should.
But not now.
Min Woo.
What are you doing right now?
I know exactly what you'll do if I give him back to you.
How can I just give you what you want?
I'll bury it. I'll bury everything...
and live quietly. So please...
Give Seung Joon back to me, please.
In Kyung.
I had no idea that you were this maternal.
Don't try to change the subject. Answer me.
Where is Seung Joon now?
Because you keep getting on my nerves like this,
- I don't want to keep my word. - What did you just say?
I don't want to be backstabbed by you,
so I'll need a safety net for myself, too.
- Wait just a little bit more. - Until when?
How much longer do I have to wait?
I'm not sure yet.
I'll think about it and let you know.
We have to attend the meeting now,
Lead Actress Kang In Kyung.
(Interview and Promotion Schedule)
Mr Cha.
Are you really going to keep Ms Kang's schedule like this?
Yes.
Is there a problem with it?
Interviews with a newspaper, magazine and radio show.
How can you expect her to do all of these things every single day?
She's our lead actress,
and this is her responsibility and duty.
I don't think this schedule is too much.
Mr Cha. Fulfilling responsibilities and duties is great and all,
but it has to be realistic.
How can we expect her to follow this crazy schedule?
Let's ask her.
Ms Kang,
is this schedule too much for you?
No.
It's fine.
I have to do it, of course.
In Kyung.
Sir, why did you want to see me?
I have a question for you.
I heard that there was a conflict among the crew members on set.
I'm wondering how it was resolved.
If the company has to be involved to sort out the situation,
I'll probably have to take action.
What do you mean, Sir?
Everyone in my team gets along so well.
Really?
Mr Cha had to go into a police precinct last night...
because of a quarrel between the crew members. Mr Cha told me so.
Gosh, no. Mr Cha must've been mistaken.
- Nothing like that happened. - Is that so?
I don't think Min Woo...
wants to give Seung Joon back to me at all.
I should meet with Chairman Nam and put an end to this all.
No, Ms Hong. That will only put Seung Joon in more danger.
Right, Byun Geun Tae.
We should make him talk.
I bet Min Woo used that jerk...
to kidnap Seung Joon.
He must know where Seung Joon is.
Ms Hong, do you know where he's hiding by any chance?
In winter, these steamed buns are the best.
I hope Cheol gets home...
early enough to eat these when they're warm. Will he be home late?
Look who is here.
What brings a famous actress like you all the way here?
Mr Byun.
Let's talk.
We don't really have anything to talk about.
You dragged me here, so go ahead and talk. Why are you glaring at me?
Mr Byun.
I know that you took my son.
What are you talking about now?
Why would I take your son?
Someone saw you.
Somebody saw you carrying him out of my salon that night,
so don't you dare try to get out of it.
What? Someone saw me?
Ms Hong, it looks like you're trying to trick me.
Come on. Who do you think I am?
I know exactly who you are. You're Cha Min Woo's minion.
- What? - You know we filed a report, right?
What are you talking about?
Do you also know that the police...
investigated and acquitted Min Woo?
What's she saying now?
The police investigated him?
He's the one who made you kidnap my son,
but he managed to get out of the police dragnet.
He practically framed you for everything.
Why am I even listening to your nonsense? Goodness.
I just need to find my son.
I'll bury everything if you give him back to me safe and sound.
He won't volunteer to give Seung Joon back.
What will you do now?
We got him all rattled,
so he'll take action if he feels guilty.
What brings you here?
I told you to stay away from here for a little while.
I know. I was going to lay low,
but I can't stop worrying.
What are you worried about?
We kidnapped the kid like that,
so In Kyung must be going crazy looking for him.
Don't you think she'll find clues and start prying?
She won't be able to do that.
The most powerless person in the world is a mum who lost her child.
Even today, she did everything I told her to do.
Still, they say that even a mouse can bite a cat when it's cornered.
Not all mice are the same.
In Kyung can't even squeak right now.
So please don't worry...
and lay low. Like I said, be careful not to be seen by anyone.
Okay.
Oh, by the way...
Did the police investigate you regarding this case by any chance?
No, they didn't.
Why do you ask?
Are you scared that the police might arrest you?
Don't worry. If that happens,
I'll do everything in my power...
to get you out.
You trust me, right?
Do I trust you? No way.
Will you actually get me out?
Of course.
I have to trust you. I mean,
we're partners in this, and we share so many secrets.
Exactly.
What? So the police never investigated him?
What's going on?
Did In Kyung lie to me? Or...
is Cha Min Woo lying?
I'm seriously so anxious and worried.
Byun Geun Tae.
Can you still say that you didn't do it?
Those rats...
I have to make Byun Geun Tae talk.
In order to do that...
I need proof.
I need to find evidence.
(Director Cha Min Woo's Studio)
Yes.
Pardon me?
There's a problem with the recording?
Okay. I'll be right there.
What's the issue?
It sounds fine.
Why did Ms Kang say that there was a problem?
- Do you mean Ms Kang In Kyung? - Yes.
She asked me to check one scene with you.
That's why I called you urgently. This needs to be submitted soon.
If they're related to Seung Joon, he probably didn't take them home.
He must've kept them in his office.
Why can't I find anything?
What's going on?
Why are you coming out of my office?
I stopped by to talk to you about my schedule.
I was just about to leave because you weren't there.
But it looks like we'll have to talk another time.
Something just came up.
Are you a thief or what?
How dare you rummage through my desk?
Don't worry. I couldn't find anything.
You took my child from me. Shouldn't you have expected this much?
You clearly have gone crazy.
Will you have to hear your son crying...
- in order to come to your senses? - Cha Min Woo, how dare you...
I told you not to cause trouble.
I warned you not to get on my nerves.
Okay.
This won't happen again. So please...
Don't do anything to Seung Joon. Please.
Speak more politely.
Please don't...
do anything to him.
I beg you.
Your child's life is in my hands.
Don't you forget that ever again.
I can't let something like this slide twice.
You know how I can be, right?
Yes.
Get going, then.
We can't find him with this photo alone.
- We can't? - No.
I bet they picked an orphanage that can't be found.
If it's in a remote area like this,
it must be an unregistered and unlicensed orphanage.
We won't be able to find where it is with this single photo.
How about you take it to the police precinct?
We don't know for certain that this is where Seung Joon is.
If it gets out of hand and Min Woo finds out about it...
Seung Joon will be put in danger.
You're right. That will be dangerous.
That leaves us with only one option.
I should go to the person who kidnapped him...
make him take me there.
What do you mean?
I'll have to use Byun Geun Tae.
Will it be okay, though?
He can go tell Cha Min Woo.
I don't think...
he trusts Min Woo.
He definitely seemed anxious.
I should find out.
Why do you keep summoning me? I have nothing to tell you.
Yet, you keep meeting with me, so there must be...
- something you want to hear. - No.
I only came here to make it clear to you for one last time.
I really didn't do it. I don't even know anything.
You must be worried and anxious. I'm aware...
that you know what Min Woo is capable of better than anyone else.
He's heartless and ruthless.
He can abandon anyone when the odds are against him.
What are you talking about?
This must be where Seung Joon is.
I know...
that Seung Joon is at this orphanage.
I don't know anything about it.
I've never even seen this place before.
Is that right?
I thought it'd be bad for both of us if this gets out of hand,
so I wanted to deal with it quietly.
But I guess I can't.
Wait. Where are you going?
I should go to the precinct and ask them to find my son.
- The police precinct? - Yes.
"My kidnapped son is kept here. Please find him for me."
I'm going to file an official request.
Then they'll find out that you kidnapped my son...
and took him there.
I wanted to give you one last chance...
before heading to the precinct,
but you blew it.
(Star Cafe)
What should I do?
Shall I go tell Cha Min Woo...
that In Kyung has found out everything?
Gosh, then he'll say that I should've handled it better...
and lose it.
But if I don't do anything and let the police find that kid...
Will I be put behind bars alone?
There's no way Cha Min Woo will help me if the kid is found.
I have to do something. Before In Kyung does anything,
I should move the kid to a different place.
Yes. That's the only solution.
Why aren't they picking up the phone?
My goodness.
Someone, please answer. Pick up the phone already!
I don't have time to waste like this.
I shall go there in person and move him to somewhere else.
Gosh, Seung Joon left so suddenly...
that I didn't even have a chance to pack up proper clothes for him.
It'll get cold soon. I'm worried.
I know.
How can she send a kid there alone even if she knows the people?
Well, she did it because it's only going to be for a short while.
Goodness, how are we going to wait until we can see him?
With Seung Joon gone, nothing makes me smile.
Because of it, I don't even look forward to coming home.
Oh, dear. That's exactly how I feel, too.
Oh, boy. I should...
go put away Seung Joon's clothes.
Choon Ja, are you done with folding your clothes?
What did you just say?
Did you not hear me? Shall I say it again, Choon Ja?
My goodness. You're being ridiculous.
How dare you talk to me so casually?
Have you forgotten? We decided to talk casually to each other.
Also, our relationship has been taken to the next level.
I mean, we spent a night together.
Hence, I think it's totally okay for me to talk casually to you now.
What did you just say?
Don't worry. I'll talk to you like this only when no one is around.
I'll be more polite to you in front of other people since I'm younger.
We're good now, right?
That kid keeps crossing the line these days.
I must say, it's getting a little dangerous.
Ms Kang,
- is this schedule too much for you? - No.
It's fine.
I have to do it, of course.
Mr Cha had to go into a police precinct last night...
because of a quarrel between the crew members. Mr Cha told me so.
Gosh, no. Mr Cha must've been mistaken.
Nothing like that happened.
Something must be going on between In Kyung and Min Woo.
I'm getting a bad feeling.
You had to go into the precinct yesterday.
Did everything get resolved?
Oh, that...
It has been resolved,
- so you don't need to worry. - I'm sure everything is fine...
because there was no conflict among the crew members to begin with.
It sounds like you've been trying to dig things up.
It was so easy to figure out that it was a lie.
I didn't even have to look much into it.
Why did the police get in touch with you?
It's nothing serious.
There was a small misunderstanding.
What was that misunderstanding about?
It has already been dealt with,
so you don't have to worry about it.
Do you think I'm worried about you?
Well...
I know that we're family,
but I don't like that you're trying to meddle in my personal life.
- What? - If you're done,
I'll leave you alone.
I'm not done yet!
I have nothing else to tell you!
You better tell me the truth.
Otherwise, I'll go to the precinct and find out myself.
Why do you need to go to the police precinct?
Why are you guys raising voices at each other?
What is this about? You're making Min Woo uncomfortable.
Hee Ae, you stay out of this.
- Dad. - Min Woo, tell us.
Why did you have to go into the precinct?
Tell us what happened.
Actually...
Someone reported me to the police for obstruction of business.
- Honey. - Obstruction of business?
Who would do something like that to you?
Do you know of anyone who might be holding a grudge against you?
I'm not too sure.
The police said that the report was filed by anonymously.
Then why did you lie?
If you told us the truth, there would've been no misunderstanding.
As you're aware,
many things can happen on set.
The misunderstanding has been cleared up,
so I didn't tell you because I didn't want to worry you.
I'm sorry that I ended up worrying all of you like this.
Why are you apologising?
Hee Ae, I told you to stay out of this.
Dad.
- Min Woo. - Yes.
It's wrong to keep a secret from your family not to worry them.
Family members must not keep any secrets from each other.
Your family would worry about you...
when you're not open and honest with them. Do you understand?
Yes.
- I'll keep that in mind. - That's enough.
It was no secret.
He told me everything.
I knew everything.
What? He told you what happened?
Yes. We don't keep any secrets from each other.
He just can't tell the two of you because you treat him like this.
Lower your voice.
Don't be rude to Dad.
I hate you the most.
Why are you out to get Min Woo?
I mean, you're like this at home. You must treat him horribly at work.
Stop it.
I should've been more thoughtful. I'm sorry I worried you.
This won't happen again. I apologise.
Why are you apologising to them?
They should be apologising to you.
That's enough, Hee Ae.
Father.
Hee Ae and I should head upstairs now.
I'm sorry again.
- Let's go. - Honey.
Hee Ae doesn't even care about me any more.
Thanks.
They could've gotten the wrong idea. You saved me.
You don't need to thank me.
Of course I should take your side. You're my husband.
My gosh. You're cheering me up.
I'm sorry. I know that it was my idea...
to live with my family.
How do you feel about moving out?
What are you talking about? I told you.
I grew up with no family, so I enjoy living with your family.
By the way, about you going into the precinct...
- Yes. - It's nothing serious, right?
Has everything been resolved?
Of course.
Don't worry about it.
But it does worry me a little.
Who did such a thing to you?
I'm not sure.
This is the place.
I found it!
Byun Geun Tae, you piece of...
Just a second. Wait, In Kyung.
Let go!
