[Episode 46]
I received a letter from Hyun-ah.
I think my sister is alive.
Hyun-ah.
Hyun-ah?
Hyun-ah...
Hello?
Who is it?
Hello, please say something.
Who is this?
Is it Jin Hyun-ah?
Why aren't you talking? Who is this?
Hello?
What do you think you're doing?
Jin Song-ah.
Are you trying to put on a show?
Why?
Why do you think that way?
So you deny it?
That's ridiculous!
Then who is it?
Who's playing this sick game?
Why do you think this is some sort of game?
My sister is alive!
Don't make me laugh!
Your sister is dead!
I saw it with my own eyes...!
Say that again.
You saw my sister die?
I'm asking you if you were there!
My stomach! My stomach!
Kang Se-na.
Call an ambulance!
My stomach is killing me!
That's enough.
Do you really think I believe you?
Answer me.
How do you know that my sister is dead...?
Have you lost your mind?
Don't you think about blaming me for this!
Her body didn't show up in the search!
You witnessed it yourself,
so why are you getting suspicious again?
If you insist that your sister is still alive,
will that bring her back to life?
If that were the case,
my mother would've come back to life!
She wouldn't leave me alone,
and she would've returned to me.
If you're so sure that she's dead,
why did you come out here?
To meet with you.
What?
I knew that you were behind all of this.
If you ever harass me about this again,
you won't get away with it.
Got it?
Everything that spews from your mouth is a lie!
Doesn't your stomach hurt anymore?
It hurts to death!
But I'm holding in the pain!
I've been through much worse pain!
Ah...
you're not a director's daughter anymore.
Then why should I hold back in front of you?
I don't have to care about what you think anymore.
Good to see you!
I should break those wrists of yours...
Why, you lazy...
Why are you here...
instead of at your hometown with your Kyung-suk?
You must've missed me quite a bit.
You're delusional.
Why else would you memorize my fiance's name?
Did you miss me that much?
Am I listening to a fly yawning?
I was happy knowing that you were gone.
Mister, why are you looking at my mom like that?
How am I looking at her?
Like this.
That's got to be the creepiest look I've ever seen in my life.
Did I do that?
Seriously...
Look here, dear daughter.
How am I your daughter?
You're the daughter of my lady here.
And to be clear,
my looks aren't creepy.
Then how would you describe them?
More like, the look of someone who's fallen in love?
Oh, my...
I really wanted to eat a chicken today.
But my heart is beating now because of someone.
I'm leaving for now.
Mom!
Mom, get a grip.
Get a hold of yourself!
Why have you fallen for a creep like that?
Bong.
I think I need glasses.
I'm starting to warm up to that scoundrel.
Once I get paid for this work,
I'll be able to buy ingredients...
to make ginseng chicken soup for Song-ah and Do-joon.
Mom.
Mom, I'm home...
Mom.
Is this why you haven't been getting your phone all day?
I was bored, so I started this.
I could work here all day, but Ms. Oh won't pay me a dime.
But I get a nickel for every one of these I finish.
10 of them earns 50 cents!
Mom.
This isn't difficult at all.
When I'm doing this, time flies...
and it keeps me active.
Song-ah.
Can I keep doing this?
No.
Don't do it.
Why not?
I work at a company.
I can make enough money for all of us,
so please don't go out of your way, okay?
I don't want you to do things like this!
That's one good cup of coffee.
I'm home.
Do you work late on the weekends as well?
There was an emergency.
How busy were you...
that you had to leave your child with Hyun-soo?
And you call yourself a mother?
Don't worry.
Woo-joo has gone to sleep.
Woo-joo is a gentle child.
That's because all of the people in our family are gentle people.
But what if the child were to fall ill all of a sudden?
I'll be more careful.
Don't you remember why I allowed this marriage?
It was because of Woo-joo!
The least you can do...
is take care of your child!
I'm not loafing around. I'm working...
You listen to me!
Your marriage depends on your child.
Take good care of your child if you want to remain here.
More so, in your case!
Mother.
Father did not allow for our wedding...
just because of Woo-joo.
Then why did he allow it?
It's because he's noticed my potential.
I'll go on upstairs now.
She doesn't know her proper place.
If she's so talented,
why hasn't she gotten promoted?
My goodness.
Stop talking so much.
The older you get,
the less you should talk.
Kang-min.
I want to beat some sense into that girl,
but will she stand for it?
She'll probably tell the police that I'm abusing her.
Gosh...
How did I end up with a daughter-in-law like her?
She should feel fortunate that I'm holding back.
Here.
Let's cheers.
Cheers!
Do you like your room?
This place already feels like home.
That's good to hear.
We're no different than family now.
Thank you.
Since you're my brother's friend,
I'd like to address you as my brother as well.
Sure. We'll do that.
Why don't you join us?
Who was the original owner of the room downstairs?
It was Gun-woo's room.
I see.
There are rumors that he loved some woman.
Do you know who it was?
Why are you curious about that?
My acquaintance informed me that...
Cha Gun-woo had left something with the woman he loves.
Would you happen to know who that is?
That would be Jin Song-ah.
They were engaged to be married before they broke it off.
Is that true?
There was a woman between them.
Gun-woo was meeting...
with another woman besides Jin Song-ah?
Who was that woman?
Woo-joo's mother, aren't you going to do the dishes?
Yes, I'm on my way!
Please excuse me.
I don't know who the woman is.
Can you give me a cup?
Here you go.
Stop talking about Song-ah's past.
I was only speaking the truth.
Is there something wrong?
The two of them broke up...
because of you.
Honey.
It must be nice to have Hyun-soo join your team as well.
Absolutely.
I feel confident knowing these three are by my side.
Father, I feel left out.
You should be happy that we're allowing you to go to work.
Do you really need your father-in-law...
to put you on a pedestal?
Mother.
Before I'm Woo-joo's mother, I'm Kang Se-na.
When a woman becomes a mother,
she abandons her name.
I've forgotten my name while taking care of my family!
It's a different era now.
That's enough!
Now, now.
If things are complicated in the morning,
the entire day becomes hectic.
Let's go.
We'll be back.
Yea, have a good day.
If it wasn't for Woo-joo...
It'd be all over with one spinning heel kick.
Hello.
Mister!
You're back?
Has your father recovered yet?
Thanks to you, yes.
That's great to hear.
Have a great day!
Yea, you, too.
So you weren't behind all of this?
There's no way Hyun-ah's alive.
You can't fool me.
What are you doing at my desk?
As the chief, I have the right to look through my employees' desks.
Get it straight.
This company belongs to Woo-joo's grandfather.
And this office is my world.
Chief.
Mr. Hong.
Teach the new recruits properly!
What?
Yes, Chief.
Jin Song-ah, can't you be more cooperative?
I'm the one who's getting pressure for it!
I'm sorry.
I'll be more careful.
How should we handle the marketing...
for our new water filtration product?
Since it's a world-class product,
we should use celebrity marketing.
Allow me to contact some of the hottest Korean Stars right now.
It would be great if they got on board.
Leave that to me.
I'll get them on board, no matter what it takes.
I have a different idea.
Celebrity marketing will provide a significant impact,
but we should carefully consider this.
We should look into other marketing strategies as well.
Why don't we get some marketing suggestions from the employees?
That's a great idea.
What are your thoughts, Chief Moon?
Since Chief Kang developed the product,
shouldn't she be entrusted with the marketing?
She has the most knowledge on the product itself.
I think we should...
incorporate both Manager Koo and Chief Kang's ideas.
Yes?
What's going on?
Thanks you for endorsing my proposal.
We're partners.
Why?
I feel secure with you on my side.
I've had a good partner before.
You remind me of him.
Is that so?
I'm starting to feel jealous.
Are you interested in me?
Yea, is this Bong's Chicken?
Do-joon, that must be you.
It's me.
Where do you live now?
We pay for rent in an extra room at the restaurant.
Oh, really?
Yea, okay.
Jung-ok is renting a room now?
I guess I should see how she's living.
You're my ball and chain, aren't you?
I can't go anywhere because of you!
Kang Se-na, you're probably my long, lost enemy.
Yea, yea, okay.
Mr. Hong.
How about Korean sausage rice soup for lunch?
Korean sausage rice soup?
I'll go with you.
Ms. Kim?
Don't worry about them.
He's pulling rank on you.
Let's go have lunch.
Please enjoy.
Thank you.
You've been looking gloomy lately.
Forget about your troubles, at least while you eat.
I will.
Do you remember this place?
If I mix it with my right hand~
and then mix it with my left hand~
I end up with two bowls~
You sang that silly song.
I'm thankful that you remember.
I practiced hard before singing that to you.
Here's your pork cutlet.
Why did you order pork cutlet?
This is a noodle house,
but the pork cutlet is really good here.
Let me slice it for you.
Here, try it.
Hurry up.
It's really good.
It's good, right?
Let me give you another one.
Big Sis.
You're chopping beets differently now.
Huh?
How so?
You used to chop with force and conviction,
but now your chops are weak and hesitant.
Oh, that...
I'm sorry.
I've been a bit tired lately.
Why would you be tired?
About that...
Mom, are you feeling ill?
No, it's nothing like that.
I've been stitching buttons onto dolls...
Ma'am, are you stitching buttons onto dolls?
Really?
No, I'm bored during the day,
and it's fun to play with dolls!
Goodness!
I think you're the happiest person here.
There's nothing to it.
As long as you're well-fed and happy, right?
Now, everyone.
Good news about the idea competition.
What's the good news?
There's $3,000 on the line for the winner.
$3,000!
The competition is being held by the general manager,
so the prize money is significant!
The competition will run for a week.
If any of us happens to win,
let's agree that the winner...
buys coffee for the rest of us. Okay?
Just coffee?
Why are you such a cheapskate?
The winner should pay for dinner.
That's easy for you to say, Ms. Kim,
since it's unlikely that you'll win.
Jin Song-ah, do you have any ideas?
I'll have to start thinking about it.
The general manager would help you win.
Considering your past with him.
Miss Park!
Please refrain from speaking such nonsense.
I passed all the necessary exams, and I made it here on my own.
So please stop assuming things.
Wow, Jin Song-ah has changed a lot.
She used to be a pushover,
but she's like Joan of Arc now.
I like it.
Why are you standing there like that?
Go take care of your child.
I'm exhausted from watching the child all day.
Honey, what if I die early because of this?
Like a delicate flower,
there's nothing more beautiful than an infant.
If you continue to look after Woo-joo,
it'll extend your life by at least 10 years.
Sometimes you seem so knowledgeable and respectable.
What are you doing in front of our children?
You're never too old to flirt, am I right?
You're right.
Sometimes, I envy your relationship.
You can say that it's thanks to my efforts.
A man is only as good as his woman.
But our Kang-min...
The world is filled with different men and women.
You eventually get used to everyone.
Who do you take after?
Let me see Woo-joo.
You don't know how to take care of a child.
Woo-joo.
You should go and get some dinner.
Then I'll leave him to you.
Kang Se-na's source of happiness...
seems to be delicate like a glass castle.
Now, please submit your proposals.
Has everyone submitted the proposals?
Yes.
I wish everyone luck.
[Chungho Nice Water/ Marketing Strategy by Jin Song-ah]
Wait.
Yea, so I understand that the marketing strategy...
will be determined through a competition?
Yes, Father.
Thanks to you, we're rolling out our water filtrations systems.
With the proper marketing, this could be successful.
If this project proves to be a success,
I'll look forward to a promotion.
Yea, okay.
We'll talk after we see some results.
This was placed in the garbage in the hallway.
You should keep track of your proposals.
Since everyone worked so hard with their proposals,
should we have a company dinner tonight?
Jin Song-ah, why are you looking at your superior like that?
It's offensive.
I'll let it slide this time, but be careful next time.
One moment.
I can't let this go this time.
Did you submit all of our proposals?
Of course.
I've submitted all four of your proposals.
What's the matter?
Stop lying.
Why was my proposal found in the garbage?
Must you take it this far?
How can you, as the chief, treat your employee this way?
To be honest,
I want you to leave this company on your own two feet.
Why?
Do I make you feel guilty?
What are you insinuating?
Why would I feel guilty?
I've done nothing wrong.
Really?
Then allow me to point out what you've been doing wrong.
What?
Kang Se-na.
You watch and see how I deal with this.
[Subtitles provided by MBC]
[Preview]
You started the marketing competition because of Jin Song-ah?
Are you being too personal with work?
Hey, don't think of it like that.
There's no guarantee that Song-ah will win.
Whenever I look at you, I'm reminded of someone.
Your first love?
If you think that I resemble your first love,
it must mean that you have feelings for me, too.
What do you think you're doing?
Stop looking at me like that!
You're trampling all over my pride!
I'm a woman, too!
This is why I don't like you!
You're always so selfish!
Kang Se-na, what are you doing here?
Aunt, you were renting out the room to Song-ah's family?
Do you even know who these people are?
