(Episode 124)
Dad.
Father.
Aran.
Father.
Hey.
What are you doing in our room?
Aran, you...
No. It's nothing.
What is it?
I asked you to get the nail clippers.
Never mind.
Let's not bother the kids
and leave.
Good night.
- You too, father. / - Okay.
- Good night. / - You too.
Aran, you...
Father,
I'll watch you from now on.
She's been deceiving me all along.
She was spying on me
and mocking me.
Father, you've been straining yourself.
If I had done well,
you wouldn't be this exhausted.
Father, you can't trust anyone.
And check for cameras wherever you go.
Father's being blackmailed.
Someone knows what he did and
is trying to ensnare him.
What am I to do, Aran?
What do I do?
First off, give up your plan to
drive out my mom
right away.
Aran,
how dare you deceive me!
Why you...
I'm relieved mom looks good today.
Mother is strong-willed, so
she'll make it
through this and recover.
Yes.
I'll be focusing on mom's treatment.
That's okay with you, right?
You're hurting my feelings.
Of course it's okay.
That goes without saying.
And don't bring up the transplant again.
You aren't egging him again, are you?
Geez, mom.
Never mind.
What did you do with my nail clippers?
Why can't you just put them back?
I'll find them for you.
How did you open this?
What do you mean?
Why?
Am I not allowed to open
your drawers?
Okay, fine.
I was snooping around.
There wasn't much anyway.
I'm sorry.
It's okay.
Why are you apologizing for your mom?
Father, do you need something?
No.
I made this for you, father,
as you seem tired these days.
I hope this energizes you.
Thanks.
Why are you so thoughtless?
Gilsu is having stomach problems
because he's so stressed.
So why are these grilled?
You should have made porridge
or at least steamed the abalone.
I wasn't thinking.
I'll be more careful next time.
No. Thank you.
Aran went out of her way for me,
so stop carping on her.
Carping?
Geez, Gilsu.
Never mind.
This looks good.
Thank you for always thinking of me.
Don't mention it.
Thank you too.
You all get along so well, don't you?
Why you...
You're in cahoots with your sister.
In cahoots? What do you mean?
Never mind.
You'd never tell me.
If you're nervous, come clean
and take the punishment
instead of being so childish.
What?
What did you say?
I'm worried about you.
President An is getting nastier.
Don't worry about me and just stay safe.
Father's out of his mind.
He's paranoid and suspicious of everyone.
I'm worried he'll hurt you.
I can take care of myself.
But you live with him.
He won't sit back if he finds out
you're not on his side.
I'm bracing myself.
He'll find out eventually,
although it may be sooner
than we hope.
Choi Aran,
I didn't want to take it this far,
but the paper company for
the embezzled funds are in your name.
I had felt bad about it,
but you let me down.
What brings you here?
Word is that investments
have been redirected to a paper company.
That can't be.
Ms. Choi did recommend an investment.
But how were company funds
redirected without approval?
I'll look into it.
How can this be when we thought
operations were stabilizing?
I'm thrown off guard too.
It was a high-risk investment,
so I tried to stop her.
I'll look into it.
Rumors that Aran took funds must spread.
I can't accuse her myself.
I am her father-in-law after all.
This is proof of father's embezzlement.
There's no way dad would do this.
This can't be.
Father's probably buying up shares
with company money to
overtake Maru's father and drive mom out.
I don't know why he's being like this.
Why did you encourage his mean streak?
You could've advised him
to be honest and reconcile
at the get-go.
Are you blaming me?
How can I blame you?
I'm just frustrated.
I don't know what to do about my dad.
I'm sorry.
What is it?
Did you misappropriate company funds?
What are you talking about?
I asked you if
you embezzled company money.
Don't be ridiculous!
I have enough to worry about as the board
is saying company funds have been
redirected to a paper company.
I know it was you.
Aran's under suspicion!
Now you'll frame Aran for
the money you embezzled?
Darn it.
What are you talking about?
Your father embezzled company money?
Gilsu, what's Taeho saying?
It's nothing.
He doesn't know what he's talking about.
Has your wife somehow convinced you
that your father is a criminal?
Good grief.
Is that what she said,
that your father is a crook?
Dad, if you frame Aran,
I won't sit back.
Taeho!
What's wrong with you?
How can you talk to your father like that?
This is because of that conniving shrew.
She'll get it from me.
Please don't disappoint me again
and rectify the situation.
I beg you.
Darn it!
Where did this girl run off to after
driving a wedge between father and son?
You listen to me.
If you believe your wife
and accuse your father again,
I won't forgive you for
your rudeness.
Got it?
Mom,
you have no idea what father's plotting,
so please stay out of this!
Excuse me?
What's happened to my son?
What happened to
our sweet, devoted son?
This is all her fault.
Aran did this to you,
didn't she?
Taeho.
She'll get it from me.
Bom's working late at the workshop.
Thank you both for your help.
But shouldn't you go home?
Your in-laws won't like it.
So you were hiding here.
Mother.
Hiding?
You schemed with your mother to
frame President An for embezzlement.
That's not true, mother.
What are you talking about?
Embezzlement?
Who's framing whom?
I know what's going on.
You got Aran
to drive my husband out.
Look, Seonyeong,
I don't know what this is about,
but I won't sit back if
you frame Aran or
some other innocent person.
You'll be punished.
But nothing will befall you if you're
honest and upright.
Who are you to lecture me?
I know you two are
scheming together
to harass my husband.
Why can't you just suffer alone
instead of trying to destroy
my husband with you?
Please stop it!
Don't come home.
Stay here with your dying mother!
Hey!
Hey, you!
Hey!
Apologize to mom for what you just said.
I'm not apologizing to anyone.
Apologize to her for offending her!
How dare you yell at your mother-in-law!
All you learned from
your mom is her aggressiveness.
Listen.
Apologize to my daughter.
For someone so sick,
you're being quite fierce.
Apologize before you leave!
Move aside.
Stop it!
Gukhui!
- Mom! / - Gukhui!
Mom, are you okay?
What are you doing?
How dare you show up and cause a scene!
Didn't I warn you I'd give it to you
if you messed with Gukhui again?
Where is your human decency?
How can you stoop so low?
I'll be watching you and your husband
reap what you sow!
What's with all of you,
ganging up on me like this?
Scram!
Go away!
- Scram! / - Get lost!
We have nothing to say to you!
Darn it.
Scram!
Stop it!
I did nothing wrong.
Don't you fear the heavens?
The heavens?
Don't you fear divine retribution?
Be careful when there's
a lightning storm
as something may hit you!
That's right!
Let's go back in.
Come on, Jeonggi.
What did I do?
What did I do so wrong?
All I wanted was to make my husband CEO
and give my sons a good life.
I worked just as hard as all of you!
I did nothing wrong!
When will that scumbag get ousted?
That's not enough.
They should be driven out
penniless into the streets.
Ow, my stomach.
Why? Why?
Peanut must be ticked off too.
He's kicking away.
Mom, lie down.
You need to rest.
That's right.
Gukhui needs to get some rest.
We're home.
We're home, mother.
Mom, are you feeling unwell?
An Gilsu's wife came by and
caused a scene.
It wasn't like that.
Nothing happened.
I'm sorry.
This is all my fault.
Aran,
we said we wouldn't go there again.
Yes, that's right. Let's not.
But can you go to your in-laws'?
After what your mother-in-law did...
I have Taeho.
Call me bullheaded,
but I won't let them kick me out.
I'll endure this.
No. I'll overcome this.
Aran.
Mom, get the transplant.
Your good health will give me strength.
That's right, mom.
We decided whoever's the better match
will be your donor.
Let's not discuss that anymore.
Gukhui,
I don't want Bom to go under the knife,
but she convinced me after days of
pleading and convincing.
I can't stop a daughter
from saving her mother's life.
Get the transplant.
Yes, Gukhui.
Mother, our family has
no worries so long as you're healthy.
We'll only have good days to
look forward to.
That's right.
Shouldn't you live
to see how well
our kids do?
How can President An's
wife be like that?
I warned that woman several times,
but it's gone over her head.
If it hadn't been for Peanut,
I would've pummeled her.
That wasn't for you to hear, Peanut.
Just close your eyes
if you see her again.
Just looking at her
can harm Peanut's emotional development.
They need to learn a lesson.
I'm home.
Why are you in such a good mood?
Mother, is that a new...
That's right.
I learned from the senior citizen center
how to get a free one.
My kids refused to get one for me,
so I took matters
into my own hands.
If you had told me,
I would've gotten you the latest model.
Who's Mr. Park?
No one. Just a friend.
Hello?
Yes, Mr. Park.
Yes. Right.
My goodness.
Yes.
Oh, my. What a shame.
I see.
Oh, wow.
You've come all this way?
Just a moment then. Okay.
Oh, my.
♪Fluttering heart♪
♪Like that of a young lady♪
♪Butterflies in my stomach♪
Ms. Kim,
have some fruit...
Isn't that my jacket?
You never wear it.
What's wrong with sharing?
I have important business to attend to,
so don't ruin it.
Oh, my. My goodness.
What's with her these days?
She's been like that for a while.
My hunch is that she's in love.
I hope she doesn't get her heart broken.
(International Earth Day Conference)
Thank you for your interest.
Show him in.
Welcome. Nice to meet you.
We're from Punggildang.
There's lot of talk
about Punggildang's toast wine,
introduced for the first time at
the International Earth Day Conference.
President An Gilsu of Punggildang
is here with us.
Hello, President An.
Hello.
In organizing the International
Earth Day Conference,
we, at Punggildang, worked hard
on undertaking a green campaign
and making a great toast wine.
The staff joined forces with me to make
our toast wine, and it is an honor that...
What's An Gilsu doing when it was you
who made the toast wine?
He's the company's president.
Outsiders are bound to think
that it was him, not you, who
created the toast wine.
What does that matter
so long as people enjoy a good wine?
Of course it matters.
I'm enraged.
Once the wine hits stores,
I'm telling everyone
it was my wife Bae Gukhui,
not that scumbag, who made the wine.
The company keeps delaying the launch.
I think President An is trying to avoid
selling the wine with your name on it.
Petty scoundrel.
Why can't he see that the success
of the wine will benefit him?
(Bae Gukhui's Toast Wine)
What is it?
I have to ask you something.
Why do you keep pushing back the launch?
Big-box stores and retailers
keep inquiring when
they can buy the wine.
Listen.
How is that any of your concern?
We have marketing goals to consider.
But the toast wine was on television.
I think it's the perfect time to launch.
I don't know if you're insolent or
too devoted as a daughter.
Yes, your mother did make the toast wine.
And it's called Bae Gukhui's Toast Wine.
But that's what worries me.
Would it be right to launch the wine in
your mom's name when her very life
is hanging by a thread?
What are you saying?
Let's say we promote the wine
and create a hype
but something happens to your mother.
We'll end up with a product without
its namesake.
If you're worried about my mom,
rest assured.
She won't crumble that easily.
So go ahead with the launch.
(Bae Gukhui's Toast Wine)
I don't get why the launch
is being delayed when we have
so much toast wine in stock.
So the marketing team is thinking of
a pre-launch promotional event.
But would it be okay without
President An's authorization?
We're not starting sales.
We're just doing a promotional event
to introduce the wine to consumers.
Should any problems arise,
I'll take full responsibility.
Then I'm in.
Can't say no to the president's son.
I'm glad you're being so cooperative.
Our team will help too.
Then let's think about a theme.
No more cross-dressing or blond wigs.
It's Bae Gukhui's Toast Wine.
Come raise a toast with us. Cheers.
Come.
Come and taste.
Have a shot.
Stop it.
Why do I have to wear this?
Come enter
the giveaway for great prizes.
It's Bae Gukhui's Toast Wine.
Come try your luck.
Sure.
Bae Gukhui's Toast Wine will bring luck.
Go ahead and spin.
Wow. You got "Twice the Love."
You won a love shot with us.
Oh, really?
Could I do it with this lady?
Men can't get enough of me.
A love shot?
Not her.
With you.
- Me? / - Yes.
Sure.
We ask for your interest in
Bae Gukhui's Toast Wine.
Sir, do it with me.
You remind me of
a very good friend of mine.
Is this it?
It's over there.
Hi. Hi.
It's rice soup.
A promotional event?
Why didn't you ask me
for my help?
Geez.
This is my treat.
(Premium Kimchi Refrigerator)
Just make it land here.
Thank you.
You're the best, father.
Really?
But we brought rice soup.
Is that necessary?
The toast wine's success
will boost the company I invested in,
and in turn, benefit me.
We'll donate our rolls.
Have kimbap with
Bae Gukhui's Toast Wine.
Peanut Kimbap welcomes
phone orders and large orders.
Thank you all so much.
What should I be doing?
Let's just watch how the kids do.
Coming.
Have some toast wine too.
- Cheers. / - Cheers.
Toast Wine is the bomb.
You're President Bae Gukhui, right?
Yes.
I only drink Punggildang wines.
Thank you.
Pretty ladies!
Stop being demure
and dance a little
to attract a bigger crowd.
That's why
I brought music.
Tada!
We were too busy
working to taste the toast wine.
So I grabbed a bottle.
Baedal!
I've never been prouder.
That's right.
We all worked hard today,
so let's kick back.
Thank you for all your help.
This belly made it tough,
but it was worth it to
see Gukhui smile.
I know.
Gukhui didn't look good earlier, but
we shouldn't treat her like she's sick.
Let's try to make her smile more.
Okay.
I should get back since
we've tidied up.
I'm so thankful for all your help.
You can't leave yet.
Let's raise a toast to
Gukhui's health.
Cheers!
You saw how popular the toast wine is.
Should we go to the office?
I have other wines
I'd like to show you.
I make ihwaju this time of year.
What a surprise to hear you say that.
You must be in a good mood.
I am.
Being around young people
has revitalized me,
and I got to see my two girls dance.
Is there anything you'd like to eat?
Should I make you something?
It's okay.
Get some rest.
No.
I haven't felt this good in a while.
Would you like rice cakes?
I make great spicy rice cakes.
Really?
Shall I try your rice cakes then?
Mom, we did
this survey at the tasting...
Bom, get me more tissue.
Mom.
Mom, what's wrong?
Don't worry. I'll be fine.
Don't worry. It's nothing.
Mom! Mom!
Mom, you'll be fine.
Hang in there.
What is this issue I'm hearing of with
the management of company funds?
Word is that Ms. Choi Aran is involved.
Is that true?
I looked into it,
and Ms. Choi did set up a paper company.
Father, what are you talking about?
Ms. Choi,
is it true you set up a paper company
and embezzled company funds?
Of course not.
But there is proof.
Explain the large sum that was deposited
into your account.
Father,
you set it up to misappropriate...
Stop denying it and
tell us the truth.
How could you use company money?
An investigation will
prove that this is all fake.
I have proof you embezzled company funds.
I'll go get it
if you'll wait.
What are you talking about?
Sneaking out won't get you off.
Tell us the truth!
That's right, Ms. Choi!
We have proof of your embezzlement.
There is something going on here,
so we'll give them some time.
You two can bring whatever you have.
We'll determine who's telling the truth.
Ms. Choi,
admit your wrongdoing
and pay for what you did.
I should have taught
my daughter-in-law better.
I apologize.
Once you're done,
put all the shares in my name.
Okay.
You shouldn't have betrayed me, Aran.
If you hadn't,
I would have used you
and rewarded you handsomely.
Father,
why are you doing this to me when
I've been so loyal?
Is that why you spied on me?
Did you think I'd never find out?
So you found out?
I won't drag this out then.
I won't even have to tell you why.
But I won't let you get the better of me.
These papers prove your embezzlement.
I have videos and pictures of
all your wrongdoings.
I'm going to the police right now.
Aran.
What are you saying?
Stop!
Aran!
What do you think you're doing?
Do you think I'll just sit back?
You can be penalized too
for illegal surveillance and blackmail.
If I was scared of that,
I wouldn't have come this far.
Hand that over.
Stop Aran
from going to the police!
Mom.
Are you okay?
Gukhui.
Mother.
Gukhui.
I was so scared that something
was terribly wrong.
I'm sorry
to have alarmed you.
How are you feeling?
I must have passed out.
I can't remember...
It's okay.
We just got your daughters'
test results.
Really?
I can be the donor, right?
Taeho,
I'm going to the police to report father.
But Aran...
I'm sorry.
Hello?
Yes, I'm Choi Aran.
Pardon?
The test results says I'm a match?
Thank you.
I'll be right there.
Okay.
Aran! Aran!
Choi Aran!
Darn it!
What is this?
Move! Move!
I have no time for you.
Aran, stop.
Stop!
Stop it. I have to get to mom!
No! No!
Aran!
How can both girls be a match?
The doctor said Aran,
in particular, is a perfect match.
Aran's agreed to be your donor, right?
I was hoping I could be the donor.
I'm a scumbag, right?
What are you talking about?
Do you know what I've just done?
Gilsu.
You did this to me!
It's all your fault!
Aran!
How can this be?
Gukhui, pull yourself together.
Calm down.
I should make this toast wine mine.
With Aran silenced,
no one can mess with me.
