Mother!
Go ahead. You won't watch me die, right?
Then it's your responsibility to end things here.
Don't be afraid. It won't hurt too much.
It's the least you can do after fooling around with two brothers.
Why? Scared?
Did you plot this terrible situation without considering the consequences?
I know what I did was wrong. I deserve to die.
But I'm not going to kill myself, Mother.
You're not going to...?
I'm a mother. Death is not an option for me.
Then what about my son?
What about all the pain and scars you'll give him?
What did he do to deserve this?
He loves you more than me, his mother. He could give up his life for you.
As of this moment, you're dead to him.
Do you understand?
Mom!
What the...? Did you take the medicine?
Did you?
How pretty! Is that for me?
How much is this?
Five dollars.
The change is five dollars.
We won't be needing the change.
Isn't it pretty? Thank you, Hyeong-woo.
Mother.
Didn't we agree that you're dead to us?
We did. I'll leave and you'll never see me again.
But please, give me a few days.
If I leave now, Hyeong-woo will be hurt.
Just a few days. I'll make him hate me in that time.
You'll make him hate you? How dare you..!
Mother.
Can't stand the sight of you. Get out!
Mother!
I said, get out!
Get out. Don't excite her anymore.
You get out, too.
At this rate you'll have to ask her to come back in less than a day.
Nonsense.
It's not nonsense. Did you forget?
You're the one who said he'll die without her.
What if he leaves again?
What if he refuses to eat or drink? You'll have to bring her back.
You hate the sight of her? Can't stand her, right?
I get it, but think of Hyeong-woo.
Give Hyeong-woo some time to let her go.
Three days. That's all I'll give her.
I'll make sure she understands.
You have three days.
Thank you, Shin-woo.
How will you make him hate you in three days?
I'll do something. I don't want him to be in pain.
I just can't figure you out.
You're home.
Hello.
For you.
Take it. It's pretty. He bought me one, too.
Where did you buy this?
On the street.
You don't know women very well. We don't like cheap gifts like this.
You're angry because he gave me one, too?
I am. I don't want the same thing you gave to another woman.
Have this one, too.
Here.
You serious?
Now you have a matching pair.
She seems on edge. Well, more for me.
Hyeong-woo?
What..?
I am sorry.
Hyeong-woo!
When did you get home? I must've missed you.
One person I just can't figure out. The other's way too transparent.
Excuse me?
I'm talking about a soap opera.
What the..?
I am sorry, Eun-young.
For what.
For making you angry.
Do you know why I'm angry?
Women do not like cheap gifts.
They do not want the same gift as another woman.
I'm tired. Can you leave me alone?
Franz Schubert's "Blessedness."
I don't like classical music.
I like what you don't. Rock music, trot, pop. Noisy stuff.
What do you know? We have nothing in common.
I am sorry.
Eun-young, our wedding photo...
It tore so I threw it away.
What's wrong? You upset?
How can I ever make this up to you? What can I possibly do?
Wha? I - I have a terminal illness? You want me gone that bad?
Of course not, Mother.
You take one for the team and our family can have the good life.
I understand you want to off me, but I have no intention of going to jail.
Mom, don't imagine the worst case scenario.
Enough! You're worse than he is!
You didn't try to talk him out of it?
My daughter and son-in-law are a pair of crooks.
Mother. Our first priority is saving the restaurant.
We'll give back to society by donating to charity and paying our taxes.
We'll keep the money flowing.
Shut it! Your father-in-law will kill you.
Stop with the nonsense before I spill the beans.
Mom will never do it, not even if it guarantees ten grand a month.
How much?
You're right. She'll never throw away her pride for money.
I'm sorry I asked, Mother.
What a loss. Ten grand.
Yeah, ten grand.
What's going on?
What? A restaurant?
Yes.
They don't have any money for that.
President Kang's chauffeur Ju Hong-jin came up with the money.
He did?
He didn't look that capable. Find out where he got the money.
Yes, ma'am.
- What's Jeong-woo up to? - He's still laying low.
Watch his subordinate Jeong Hyeon-woo. He could be doing all the legwork.
He's at his parents' in Daegu, helping out with the family business.
You sure?
Yes, I checked with those who know him.
Alright.
Good work.
She's sharp. She'll try to stop you if she finds out you're in Japan.
Did you know it's pretty much decided Manager Han will take your place?
I suspected as much. He played a crucial role in kicking me out.
Oh, I have some good news, too.
Good news?
Kenta is the leading candidate for the Dodo presidency.
It's good news, but not something we should depend on.
We don't have time. We need an alternative plan.
Yeah. Bye.
What are you doing?
Juice is good for when you are tired. It gives you energy.
Look at the mess you made. All to make this juice?
Yes.
What were you thinking? Are you a kid?
No, even kids don't make mistakes like this!
What's going on?
Other husbands work and help out their wives.
Why do you make things worse for me?
I am sorry.
Again! You're always apologizing to me. I'm sick and tired of it.
I am sor...
Eun-young, it's not my place to say anything, but...
Then don't.
You made the mess, you clean it up.
I'll clean it up...
No. Let Hyeong-woo do it.
I will do it.
You were born an actress, weren't you?
Move, I'll do it.
- No, I will do it. - I can do it faster...
I will do it to make Eun-young happy.
We need to talk.
About what?
I don't get it. What's gotten into you?
What do you mean?
What's with the sudden attitude change? You were always nice to Hyeong-woo.
I'm tired of acting.
I'm tired of acting like an angel. That's my reason.
And he has no idea. I feel bad for him.
You're actually worrying about him?
Excuse me?
You're angry because you're worried about him, is that it?
Yes. You don't deserve someone like him.
Why are you looking at me like that?
We need to talk.
Why'd we have to come out here to talk?
Isn't Hyeong-woo a nice guy?
What kind of question is that?
Just answer me.
Truthfully speaking, I get a little envious when I see how he treats you.
He's much better than men who play around with a woman's emotions.
Does that answer your question?
There's more.
When I got married, his mother bought my parents an apartment and a spa.
Oh, she also paid for my father's surgery. And...
Hold up. What are you going with this?
I'm leaving in a few days.
If you care about him and not just his money...
If you can love him for who he is... will you take my place?
Are you dying?
No.
Then you messing with me?
I just think that you...
You're right. I'm in it for the money. Taking your place is the cherry on top.
But I'm not just going to accept if you offer it to me.
Sorry if I offended you. I didn't mean to.
I see why you've been acting like a witch all day.
It was all an act.
I don't get people like you. Why can't you just be honest?
You're so self-righteous, pretending to be a saint.
You hurt others then act like the victim.
Deep down, we're all the same.
Try as you might, you're no different than I am.
Why are you laughing?
That's a load off my chest.
You just might be a better person than I thought.
Where's Jeong-woo?
In the study.
He's even busier now that he's not working.
That's what I'm saying. He's a workaholic.
You're not nagging him about being unemployed, are you?
Speak of the devil. You can ask him yourself.
- Ask me what? - Nothing.
Sit, I have something to say.
About adopting... let's do it.
Thank you.
What else can I do but accept fate?
If I think of him as my real grandchild, he'll become my grandchild, right?
Absolutely. You made the right decision.
What's with the face?
Na-kyeong, are you pushing for adoption against Jeong-woo's wishes?
Of course not.
I have work to do. Go to bed.
Sweetie, my father will be here soon.
He didn't say anything when I talked to him yesterday.
I asked him to come out and support you.
What for? We should be the ones going to him.
He also has a wedding to attend. A friend's son's.
Is that so?
He thinks I had a natural miscarriage. You follow?
I get it. Good night.
Sweetie.
Does it hurt your pride to accept his help?
Of course not. He's my savior.
That's good. Can you turn off the light for me?
Sure.
Sleep on the bed.
It's the first gift you ever gave me. It's pretty. So pretty.
Hello, I'm calling for the contest results.
Kang Hyeong-woo.
Kang Hyeong-woo? I'm sorry, he didn't place.
Okay, thank you.
Hello?
Is this Kang Hyeong-woo's home?
Yes, it is. Who is this?
I'm the artist Lee Gwan-woo.
The Lee Gwan-woo who painted The Green Tree"?
May I speak to him?
Excuse me?
Mr. Lee Gwan-woo?
Have a seat.
Thank you. Hello, I'm Seo Eun-young.
I'm a fan of your work.
You studied art?
No, but I wanted to.
You have an artist's face.
You really want my husband as your apprentice?
Depends on what he's like. Why didn't he come with you?
Frankly speaking, he's not like others. I wanted to give you a fair warning.
Does he have three eyes?
No.
Does he have a gimpy arm?
No.
Then what? No two people are alike.
I'm good as long as he has the will to paint.
I hate geniuses who create brilliant work without putting in the effort.
You were the subject of his drawing, weren't you?
He doesn't go out much, so he only knows to draw me or our son.
I could sense the love he feels for you in the drawing.
I hate to be a nuisance, but I have a favor to ask.
Please don't give up on him even if he seems uncooperative at first.
He isn't good at expressing himself. But he truly does love to draw.
Please.
I have nothing to lose by taking on a talented apprentice.
Bring him to my studio.
Thank you. Thank you so much!
You called for me, ma'am?
I did. Come have a seat.
You have something to say?
When did you first find out?
About your husband and Eun-young.
You knew before I asked you to switch documents, right?
I did.
You were grateful for a chance to punish him, weren't you?
I'm sorry I didn't tell you.
Don't apologize. I can imagine how traumatized you must've been.
I want to ask you something.
You know everything, yet why haven't you kicked her out?
What do you suggest I do?
Strip her naked and kick her out? Strut her out on a red carpet?
Ma'am!
Lower your voice.
Sorry.
You couldn't wait for me to find out. But things seem a little unfair.
Jeong-woo's the one who abandoned her and made her the way she is.
Why is she the only one being punished?
What?
Think of what she did to you, Hyeong-woo and me.
Jeong-woo's no less guilty.
What is it you're trying to say?
Don't help Jeong-woo.
Ma'am!
Leave him to crash and burn. In return, I'll punish Eun-young for you.
What if I decide to help him?
I'm not worried. You're a smart girl. You'll make the right choice.
There's no need to answer right away. I'll give you time to think it over.
I understand.
Good. Then get going.
I don't need your help. I'll punish her myself.
Mother's not home.
I know. Where's Hyeong-woo?
Upstairs. What do you want with him?
Hello, Na-kyeong.
Sorry for barging in like this. I have something to tell you.
Na-kyeong!
That's right. I'm going to tell him the truth about you.
Don't! Don't, Na-kyeong!
And why not? He deserves to know.
How can he not know when everyone else in the family does?
Please, Na-kyeong!
Hyeong-woo! Do you know what your wife is really like?
Let me rephrase, do you know who Bi-an's real father is?
I'll tell him. Please let me tell him myself.
Na-kyeong, please!
Then I'll let you do the honors. Tell him.
Hyeong-woo.
Go on.
Listen to me carefully.
Remember I told you that Bi-an is my real son?
Yes.
Bi-an... his real father... you see... Bi-an...
It's your brother!
