(Episode 86) Tell us. So?
What is it that you want to say?
No. Stop it!
Let her speak, Aran.
Do you think we abandoned you 20 years ago?
We told you how desperately we looked for you.
Let's stop talking about that.
Let's just move on, Bom. Please.
I'm not trying to blame the family.
I want to know if my memory is correct.
What memory?
Do you remember something?
Bom was three years old at the time.
She could barely speak then!
That's right.
When you first came to us,
you couldn't even tell us your name.
That's why I want to ask you
if what I remembered actually happened.
It's all my fault.
I remember the day you went missing.
Mom told me to play with you,
but I didn't want to be bothered,
and went to a friend's.
That's not true.
I didn't check on you two, because
I was going to my studio and...
That day, Mr. An and I...
Must you drag my father-in-law into this?
You're so shameless.
That's right. You shouldn't blame Mr. An.
Come.
I can't stand seeing you do this
to the family.
I wish I died long ago so I didn't have to see this.
What a mess!
My babies are at each other's throats!
Why are you doing this?
What is it that you want to say?
It's come back to me.
Mr. An abandoned me because of this.
Don't be ridiculous.
Are you sure what you remember
is accurate?
That's why I'm here to find out
if my recollection is right.
Because I did go missing
along with this notebook.
If you blurt out what you're thinking
and my father-in-law falls under suspicion,
my marriage goes bust,
and my family life is ruined.
What will you do then?
What about me?
What are you two doing?
Bom, let's go in.
I'll answer all your questions.
Bom doesn't want to live here.
Hey.
You said you weren't going in.
Let's talk inside.
Aran, let's go in.
Why did you bring this troublemaker back?
Stop it, mother.
You said everyone looked for me.
So didn't you ever wonder
why and how I went missing?
We told you.
You were last with your mom in her office.
You begged me to play with you,
but I said no because I was busy.
And then awhile later,
I realized you were missing.
You must have remembered that.
I'm sorry.
I was so busy and frazzled.
Why is she harassing her own mother?
Bom, what's the point in digging up the past?
Geez.
Bom, how did you get so mean?
Must you rub salt in your mom's wound?
I feel bad enough that I'm causing mom grief,
so cut it out.
Let's talk about this.
What are you doing?
Whatever it is you remembered,
please let it go.
Why should I?
The day I was abandoned,
Mr. An gave mom's notebooks to someone.
When I asked him why he did it,
he bought me ice cream
and abandoned me.
That's why I'm on my knees.
You have something on me now,
so you're not losing out.
Please stop this.
Aran. Bom.
What are you doing?
What's the matter with you two?
Why take it this far?
I told her that I tainted
her wine with artificial sweetener.
I was about to say I planned to harm Master Kim.
I don't know why I always feel
so insecure around Bom.
I don't know why I feel so small.
I just don't get it...
- Aran! / - Aran!
- Aran, wake up. / - Aran.
Aran.
So now my wife knows too.
I have to speak with you.
About what?
I heard everything you said to your wife.
Did you harass Bom and
put her in danger
to cover up what you did?
What are you talking about?
I'll be watching you, Mr. An.
If you harass Bom again,
I'll make you pay.
How dare you
spout such nonsense?
Hon,
lie to me if you must.
Please tell me you didn't do it.
When Bom went missing,
you scoured the country
looking for her.
So how could you have done it?
It wasn't you, right?
No, it wasn't me,
so please calm down.
You know I'm always on your side, right?
Even if you committed a mortal sin,
you know I'm on your side, right?
Yes, of course I know.
Gilsu.
Gilsu...
Your mom found out what I did.
She may act tough,
but she's actually a very fragile woman.
I don't know how she'll manage.
She needs time.
She'll come to see that what you did
was for all of us.
Aran fainted?
The doctor came by.
He said we need not worry.
Bom, what happened?
We had a spat over the tainted wine.
She must've been stressed out about it.
I see.
I'll take her home so she can rest.
She's fast asleep.
Why don't you let her spend the night here?
That's okay.
She'll be more comfortable at home.
Good grief.
I feel terrible that your new bride
passed out here at her parents'.
I'll take good care of her.
Okay. Thank you.
It's nippy out.
Thanks.
Alas, we can't stop her husband
from taking her.
I don't know what happened at work, but
aren't you being too hard on Aran?
This is all your fault!
How mean were you to your sister
that she'd pass out?
I'm sure this is uncomfortable for you.
I should go.
Where are you going?
But you just came back.
She'll only cause trouble if you
make her stay against her will.
Get going then.
Bom.
Why are you so intent on driving her away?
You're all so awful to her.
I just want to go away.
I'm scared.
I don't know what to do anymore.
Don't be scared.
Why are you scared when you have me?
And we need to protect my family.
How long do you think we can keep Bom quiet?
It's all over if she says anything.
We'll talk some sense into her.
And if that doesn't work,
we'll make sure no one believes her.
You're late.
Did you tell Ms. Bae
that Mr. An abandoned you?
Was it because of Aran?
Aran just got married.
And yet she's probably
living in fear every single day.
So how could I?
Why is that your concern?
If you don't speak up,
I will.
Otherwise, they'll go after you again.
I'll take care of it.
Rise and shine, sleepyhead.
Wake up.
I, An Suho, solemnly swear
to live for you and you only.
Say goodbye to this stupid plane ticket.
Who cares about studying abroad?
All I need is you by my side.
Suho, are you sure you won't regret this
no matter what happens?
Of course.
So long as I have you,
I won't regret a thing.
Then come with me.
Is it serious?
Is it a terrible disease?
Is it terminal?
Jia, I'll take care of you
until the very day you die.
I was worried about you.
I'm glad you brought him.
There's a lot for the father to do.
Pardon? What?
What did you just say?
Suho, I'm pregnant.
But...
How can you do this to me?
What am I going to do?
I just don't know.
We can get through this.
You said you'd take care of me.
But I never said anything about being a dad!
I haven't even finished college.
This is beyond my wildest imagination.
Then what?
Should we just end it here?
There's so much I want to do with you.
But you'll start to show soon.
Does that mean you'll get fat and ugly?
Will your beauty just vanish?
Is that what you're worried about?
Why are you crying?
Stop it.
How embarrassing.
In truth, although I love your sweet personality,
what I love more is your hot body.
What?
Never mind.
I shudder to think that someone like you
is my baby's father.
Forget about it.
Just go abroad.
Jia.
This is really tough.
Taejun,
I made pancakes.
What's all this?
They belonged to Maru's mother.
Although she and I ended things a long time ago,
I thought it'd only be right for me
to get rid of these before we wed.
Thank you for being so considerate.
I also took down my family portrait.
The kids were upset,
but it didn't feel right to have
my late husband's picture on the wall.
Right.
We should both forget the painful past
and live happily ever after.
(Haneulae Construction)
This firm...
It was Maru's mother's.
The firm wasn't doing well
right before the accident,
so she spent a lot of time
on-site in that work jacket.
I feel so sorry for her.
She died at the firm's construction site.
My husband died at the same site.
We were told the firm's CEO was killed too.
That's why we were denied compensation.
It was so unfair.
How can this be?
Wait.
Midal.
How did your mother die?
Tell me.
Did she die in the same accident
that took my husband's life?
Maru.
Do you know anything about this?
I should've told you and begged for forgiveness.
I'm sorry.
Your husband died trying to save my mother.
He tried to help her at the construction site,
but they both...
What are you saying?
So will Bom live here?
I'm for it!
She's here now because
she's uncomfortable at Gukhui's,
but you just wait.
With Punggildang's ownership on the line,
there's no way she'll stay.
Huh?
Has Bom gone somewhere?
She went to the store to get some milk.
Did you know?
About your brother's second wife
and my late husband?
What about them?
I heard my husband died
trying to save her.
What's that about?
What?
Bom.
Tell me the truth.
Did you know?
You knew?
Really?
How can this be?
But you're dating Maru anyway
when you knew your dad died
trying to save his mother?
I'm sorry, mom.
How could you,
you wretched girl?
How can you
be with him despite knowing that?
This is why I say
you sent your father to his grave!
Don't hit her. Talk it out.
I couldn't help it.
I didn't know.
I found out later.
But that wasn't his fault or mine.
It wasn't Maru's fault.
Do you call that an excuse?
Mom, I'm sorry.
Why did I think I could actually be happy?
So what if he's a good man?
The heavens won't let me love him.
Why should that be an issue?
It's sad and shocking,
but why should it come between us?
Please go.
It'd be one thing if I never found out.
But I did, so how can we get married?
Go.
Unfortunate ties
can be rectified
and lead to a new beginning.
I can't let you go
because of the past.
Listen, dude.
This is just another reason that you shouldn't
be with my sister.
Baedal.
There's not much to it.
It was a just fleeting encounter,
so go your separate ways.
Midal,
I got you a sedative.
Take this and calm down.
Get out, Baedal.
I don't want to see anyone.
Both of you, out.
I'm done with everyone.
How much will Jeonggi get
if he divorces Gukhui?
That ship has sailed.
Jeonggi doesn't want a divorce.
Right.
Even if he gets divorced,
he won't make anything of himself.
It's better for him to stick around
and amass a fortune off of Gukhui.
I see.
Speaking of which...
My friend wants to open a Punggildang wine bar.
Do you think we can ask Gukhui?
I'd make a little something as a go-between.
Oh, right.
My academy director seemed
interested in running a wine bar too.
Mom, should we talk to Gukhui and
become franchise agents?
Enough with your nonsense.
There's no way that heartless
woman will say yes.
Is that you, Gukhui?
She's here.
Okay.
How was your day, Gukhui?
My goodness, Gukhui.
Even with a golden futon,
I'm just not comfortable
taking over your room.
Gukhui,
I'll give you back your room,
so come.
I don't know why you're being so...
Gukhui, is there anything you'd like to eat?
Should I make you cucumber kimchi, your favorite?
Don't worry about it.
Midal makes the best cucumber kimchi.
I'll go steal some.
Why am I such a ditz?
Gukhui,
you know I watch out for Bom
at Midal's place, right?
Gukhui, I vow to keep Bom safe...
Since when did you care about Bom?
She never would have left
if you had been nicer to her.
Is the pot calling the kettle black?
How is it our fault that she left?
It was you who
drove her away.
Yes, I know it was mostly my fault.
But your sudden concern seems
very insincere.
Good heavens.
Why did you have to
to make more trouble?
Was it obvious that we had an ulterior motive?
That woman
is more cold-blooded than a lizard.
We'll go see her butler.
We'll go see Mr. An tomorrow.
I'll ask him for a wine bar for Jeonggi.
(Punggildang Wine Bar Franchise Agreement)
Knock, knock.
Mr. An.
What brings you here, ma'am?
I'm sure a man of your stature is very busy,
so I'll cut to the chase.
My son wants to run
a Punggildang wine bar,
so help us.
Pardon?
You should discuss that with Ms. Bae.
Gukhui did agree to it,
but she said she was busy
and told us to speak with you.
Okay. I'll ask Ms. Bae
and get it done right away.
Why are you being such a square?
There's obviously a reason
we've come to you.
Just give us the contract.
What are family and friends for?
I'll come visit you at your house soon,
so let's discuss it then.
I'll get a car ready to take you home.
But...
This way.
Wait up, mother.
Jeongmi. Mother.
What happened, Baedal?
Did your friend go for it?
Tada.
He signed on the spot.
I offered Yongman
a 50% discount on the franchise fee.
He was thankful
and paid me on the spot.
And he said he'd be in touch as
a buddy of his is interested too.
Good job. Good job.
I'm finally being rewarded
for all my good deeds with easy money.
I can't make Jeonggi run a wine bar,
so I'll use this to get him a studio.
But Jeongmi, is it okay
for us to be doing this?
More franchises
means more money for Gukhui.
We're just helping her get richer...
What are you doing?
A growing number of people
are falling victim to scammers
posing as franchise agents.
These scammers claim to know the CEO...
My goodness. What low-lifes.
Hon, you be careful.
You make an easy target
given how gullible and naive you are.
You tend to underestimate me.
I'm actually very shrewd
and meticulous.
At least no one here would try
to make money off of Gukhui's name.
Oh, right.
Is our expansion plan for
the wine bar franchise going well?
Actually, your mother-in-law was just here
with her daughter and her daughter's husband.
Ms. Kim said your husband wanted a wine bar.
How could they?
I'm embarrassed.
Be very clear that it's impossible.
Yes, Ms. Bae.
How is Bom?
I can't keep checking on her...
She's working in the Product Development Room.
I think it would be best for you to let her
focus on making traditional wines.
I can't see her
although she's so close by.
You're something else.
How can you be studying wine samples
amid all that's going on?
Work is like a dose of vitamin and medicine for me.
Focusing on winemaking
puts me at ease when
I have a lot on my mind.
Why don't we call it a day?
We can do this tomorrow.
You go ahead.
Maru, I'm sorry, but I'd like to
work a bit more and gather my thoughts.
Okay.
Call me if you need a late-night snack.
See you.
Why can't you come
sleep at home?
So what?
What good will this do?
Bom.
Bom, I'll just tell you one thing.
No matter what you remembered
or what Kang Maru told you,
none of it is true.
So you mustn't be rash.
I'll help you remember
what really happened.
I'm not sure about you
or what you say.
From now on, I'll only trust
what I recall and what's in my head.
Bom! Let me explain.
Bom.
Please don't be overly nice to me.
I'd like you to treat me like any other employee.
I'm sorry,
so please forgive me
and come home, okay?
I know the family doesn't want me there.
Bom.
Ms. Bae's pleading with you.
Why don't you return home?
Do you really mean that?
Bom.
Punggildang will set out
to restore long-lost traditional wines.
We plan to work with you,
Korea's foremost traditional wine experts,
to undertake more aggressive R&D.
Please take a look.
Four traditional wines no one has
yet succeeded in restoring,
will be presented under the four seasons motif.
What will happen to the baeksandongju
you were working on?
The team's project comes first.
This project will be overseen by
the Development Support Team.
Ms. Choi is so driven...
No one else could've come up with this.
Thank you, Taeho.
Your presentation was amazing.
The other staffers were in awe too.
Ms. Choi,
you'll probably make vice president in no time.
And when you do, don't forget about me.
Ms. Bae.
Put the project on indefinite hold.
What are you talking about?
We must get it started and publicized
as soon as possible
to make up for last quarter's loss.
Your business proposal
is nothing but your assumption
that everything will go as planned.
How can I have faith in a project
whose only goal is to impress?
Stop it, Aran. What will the staffers think?
Calm down.
Mom no longer sees me as a potential heir.
She doesn't even see me as her daughter.
And if Bom tells her how she went missing,
we're all done for.
I told you not to worry.
I'll take care of that.
Taeho.
What is the meaning of this, Taeho?
I have something to tell you.
I told Aran to taint the wine
with artificial sweetener.
What are you talking about?
Aran was stressed out about Bom,
so I told her to taint the wine
to get Bom to leave her job.
Taeho,
do you think you can protect Aran
with this flimsy lie?
You're actually destroying her.
I'm not lying.
It's all my fault.
Get up this instant.
Bom clearly remembers that you gave
mom's notebook to someone
and then abandoned her.
I'm sorry
I'm so pathetic.
And she has that notebook.
If she shows it to mom and
tells her everything...
Bom.
Give me the notebook.
What for?
What are you doing?
What will you do with this anyway?
This is to keep you from doing something stupid.
Mr. An!
All this to conceal your wrongdoing?
Shame on you.
Listen carefully, Bom.
This is nothing.
And your recollection is just
a figment of your imagination.
Stop it.
Must your tear our families apart over this?
Do you think you can be happy
after putting everyone else in misery?
Bom.
You knew too, didn't you?
You knew that your father
stole Ms. Bae's notebook and
abandoned me, didn't you?
So it was just Ms. Bae and me who didn't know.
We need to talk.
I don't want to hear anything from anyone.
I'll tell Ms. Bae everything and...
We really must talk.
You're wrong.
What you've recalled never happened.
So lying was your plan?
No.
Let's say what you remembered did happen.
Aran will suffer.
Don't you care about that?
Then what about me who was abandoned?
What about my parents whom your dad
deceived for 20 years?
Why dig up what happened 20 years ago?
Stop it!
Bom!
Bom, please.
