(Episode 88)
Taeho.
What are you doing?
You cold-hearted wretch.
Mom.
What was that for?
What do you think you're doing?
How dare you make my son kneel before you?
Make him kneel before me?
I did so voluntarily.
I had to apologize to her,
so I got down on my knees.
You didn't do anything wrong.
Don't you know who kept me
away from my family
for so long?
No, I don't.
You were abandoned
and only just managed to return home.
Don't take it out on my son.
I was abandoned by your husband!
What do you mean?
You don't have proof.
It's not like there are surveillance footages.
How can be so shameless?
Dozens of times every day,
I consider telling my parents everything
so Mr. An gets what he deserves.
But I hold myself back.
So stop testing my patience.
You brazen little...
Stop it, mom!
Let's go!
Don't you dare mess with my son!
I warned you, okay?
Hold still.
Your hands are tickling me.
They're so soft and tender.
They feel so nice.
Good grief.
Oh, my.
Why did you slither in without a peep?
I'm home.
Hi.
Why do you look so glum?
It's nothing.
Did something happen?
I wonder too.
She barely said anything to us.
She's usually very talkative,
sometimes overly so.
What's wrong with you?
What happened?
Nothing.
Bom...
I brought you here in a fit of rage,
but you know I'm marrying Taejun, right?
That being the case,
about you and Maru...
What's gotten into you?
What did I say to make you cry?
No. It's nothing.
Goodness me. Your cheek is scarlet red.
Did someone slap you?
Did your birth mother accuse you
of defying her and slap you?
It's not that.
Good heavens.
Why did you stop me?
Bom needs to be
told off so that
she knows to fear you and
doesn't take us for pushovers.
Mom, don't be ridiculous.
Why would Bom fear me?
She uncovered our lie.
We're the ones who should fear her.
That's why you should've denied it.
If you kneel before her and
admit our guilt,
what then?
We should apologize.
We should placate her.
Forget that.
What if Bom holds a grudge
because you slapped her?
That would...
Seonyeong.
Didn't I tell you to stay out of this?
I told you not to stir trouble.
Really, mother.
What's with all of you?
I have ears and a voice.
I hear things and
I want to speak my mind.
Geez.
I was just trying to
save our family.
You don't know anything,
so just stay put.
We have enough to worry about.
Father's about to be accused
of leaking our wine recipe...
Enough!
Everyone, be quiet.
They caused this mess, yet they yell at me.
You've reached An Taeho's phone.
Why are you answering my phone?
Your phone was ringing.
And that was a bit harsh, don't you think?
I don't keep any secrets from you.
But you must still be hiding a lot of me.
Never mind. Enough.
Why did you come here?
I've come all this way to you at your house
and you're being rude.
You should invite me in for tea.
I gave you the yeonmiju recipe,
so isn't it over?
I just needed that for reference
to compare data.
Fine. Let's end this once and for all.
It's no use bringing up my dad's
past anymore.
Thanks.
It was nothing.
But I saw everything.
Fine. It's as you saw.
I leaked the yeonmiju recipe.
What were you thinking?
But it's as Bom told the board.
Our competitor's wine is different.
He said he only needed it for reference.
You call that an excuse?
Why did you have to dirty your hands as well?
I was trying to save our family,
not forcing you to make the same mistake.
You're not that kind of person.
So please don't be like this.
Aran.
I'd throw father under the bus to save you.
I've made my choice
if I can't save you both.
How can you say that?
Think about it.
How long can we live like this
to cover up what father did to Bom?
And how long will Bom keep her silence?
After all that big talk,
is this how things will end up?
Will our son's life be ruined because of you?
I don't know
how I ended up like this.
I can't let you ruin my son's life
and let his wife demean him.
If this is how you're going to be...
What do you want from me?
What am I supposed to do?
What do you want me to do?
Let go!
What's wrong with you?
Police.
Mr. An Gilsu and Mr. An Taeho,
we're taking you into custody.
What is this about?
You're under arrest for intentionally deserting
Ms. Choi Paran.
Mr. An Taeho,
you must come with us for leaking
classified company data.
No. I didn't do it.
My son is innocent.
It wasn't his fault.
Step aside.
Gilsu. Gilsu. Taeho. Gilsu. Taeho.
Stop it. No.
Just let them go.
Aran, what's with you?
You must protect us.
Aran.
Let go of me.
Seonyeong, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, Seonyeong.
But Aran...
- Mom! / - Taeho.
Gilsu. Taeho.
Aran.
Taeho.
Mom, help me.
Mom!
Seonyeong, what am I going to do?
Seonyeong!
No. No!
Taeho!
Gilsu!
Gilsu.
What were you thinking giving Cheon
classified company data?
He's a lowlife who never lets go
once he sinks his teeth into someone.
Do you think giving him what he wants
will make this problem go away?
It'll further complicate matters.
But we have to do something.
If he calls you again,
let me know right away.
I'll deal with him.
And I'll take care of the Bom issue too.
Even if I have to kneel before her,
I won't you or Aran get hurt.
My goodness. Maybe it's the stress,
but I woke up famished.
Go boil me some eggs.
Okay.
Shh.
This way.
Huh? Grandma.
Uncle Baedal.
Be quiet.
Why are you around
wherever I go?
What are you doing here?
We're practically fugitives.
Bom, do you have any money?
What's going on?
What?
This is it?
Good grief.
I don't carry around a lot of cash.
Can we borrow your credit card then?
Once this blows over,
we'll pay you back.
Um...
I only have a bus card.
Good grief.
I thought at least you were enjoying
the high life.
So what if you have a rich mother?
You're living like a beggar
keeping your good fortune at bay.
Other rich girls
carry around credit cards,
dress well, and give
their grandparents spending money.
I'm sorry, grandma.
I'll give you spending money starting next month.
Good grief. I'm all set.
I don't want anything from you.
Good heavens.
Why am I so hungry?
Hang on, mom.
The eggs are boiling.
I'm off to work.
Don't you dare go to the office
and tell your mom
we're here.
I don't know what's going on,
but I hope you smooth things over.
Bom. Bom.
Let go.
I don't know what I can say to you.
There's no excuse for what I did.
I don't want to hear your pathetic excuses.
What are you doing?
This is all my fault.
Please get up.
It's my fault that Gilsu tried to sell
your mom's wine recipe
and abandoned you.
My dad was very ill.
We had no money,
but he was in critical condition, but
I wanted to save my dad, no matter what.
So I pleaded with Gilsu. I begged him
to save my dad.
So you want me to forgive you?
Here.
Take a look at this.
(Application for Divorce)
They want to get divorced because of you.
They should be in their honeymoon phase,
but although they're in love,
they can't be together because of you.
It broke my heart
when I saw this...
What will we do, Bom?
What will weI do?
What now?
Bom.
You're here early.
I really want to see you at home,
not just at the office.
Did you have breakfast?
I have to get to the lab.
It's a relief our competitor's wine
is just a cheap knockoff
of our yeonmiju,
but it's still worrisome.
We should be relieved that
our recipe wasn't leaked from within.
But we do have to
make up for the loss
caused by this knockoff.
The Marketing Team has been instructed to promote
yeonmiju as a traditional wine
different from our competitor's.
Good.
Let's carry out a differentiation strategy.
Mr. Kang.
Here's the comparative analysis
of yeonmiju and the knockoff.
As it says there,
the two wines are different.
Yes, I heard.
You accused my father of leaking the recipe.
Don't you dare make such
an absurd accusation again.
It wasn't just my hunch.
There are things I heard.
I told you to stop, Mr. Kang!
Taeho.
What are you doing?
You seem to have misunderstandings about me,
but I hope you move past that
and just focus on work.
Mr. An,
tell Ms. Bae what happened 20 years ago
and ask Bom for forgiveness.
You'd better stop it!
I won't sweep this under the rug.
This is the analysis of yeonmiju and the knockoff.
Hasn't that been said and done?
Scrap it.
I studied it further
and noticed something.
What is it this time?
You concluded that the recipe hadn't been leaked.
Although our competitor used lotus flavoring
instead the natural extract we use,
but they used nearly the exact same amount.
How could they have known unless
they saw our recipe?
Must you be like this?
Are you desperate to frame someone?
What's wrong?
Are you feeling sick?
No.
Ms. Choi,
the lab sent these over
for you to taste.
Are you okay, Aran?
Leave me alone. It's none of your concern.
Maybe you're...
What are you thinking?
It's not that.
No way.
Why not?
It'd be great if you were pregnant.
With all that's going on?
If I am pregnant, would you
be happy for me?
Genuinely happy?
Of course.
I'd get to be an aunt.
Here.
What's wrong, Jia?
You can't even stomach tangerines?
I feel so nauseous,
and I keep getting out of breath.
But you'll be carrying our Oinky
for several more months.
I wish I could have the morning sickness for you.
It's okay.
I can bear this in order
to become a mother.
You're all grown up now.
Stop it.
I'll have to step up, too,
to be a good husband and dad.
Let's get married and
get our marriage license.
That way, we can make our commitment
to each other official.
Ready?
Oh, my god.
Sorry. Wait.
But this is a happy occasion.
Stop it.
I never thought I'd get married
at a photo studio without
any family to give us their blessing.
Hon, I'll make it up to you for
the tears you shed today.
I'll make it big as a musician
and make you
the envy of the world.
Our Oinky too.
Do you mean it?
Yes, I do.
Come.
(Marriage Registration)
Do we have to do this?
Of course.
This legal contract
reinforces our vow to forever
care for one another.
An and "Su," I know, but what was
the Chinese character for "Ho"?
It's the "Ho" for tiger.
What an idiot.
Sir,
do you know how to write
Ho for tiger?
- "Ho" for tiger'? / - Yes.
Chinese characters are hard, aren't they?
But you should know how to write your name
with manly penmanship.
Look.
Is this really
how you write it?
You must be newlyweds.
I wish you much happiness.
Thank you.
Taejun, you haven't submitted it yet, right?
- Ms. Lee. / - Ms. Lee.
What are you kids doing here?
What about you?
I suppose I can't keep it from you
since I ran into you here.
I'm marrying this man.
Wow.
They say late love is more fiery,
but didn't you say
you'd never remarry,
not even a business magnate?
What?
You really said that?
You must really love me then.
How embarrassing in front of the kids.
I'm not embarrassed.
Let's go with these matching jackets
for our honeymoon.
How much are these?
We'll think about it.
What's there to think about? ($238)
It's perfect for you.
It's a nice design
and a vibrant color.
For this kind of money, we can go
to the market and get
an outfit for every season.
You only marry once.
I mean, we won't be marrying again.
We can splurge a bit.
Good grief.
Getting married will lead
to bankruptcy at this rate.
These are nice, but
we forgot to bring our wallets.
We'll come back.
Hurry up.
Take that off.
Our wedding is tomorrow. When will we
get matching looks for our honeymoon?
Midal,
why wouldn't you let me get us
matching looks for the honeymoon?
We'll wear what we have.
We don't need new clothes at our age.
Can't we dress to the nines at our age?
What a find.
What are you doing?
Hang on.
This will be good for another 10 years.
It truth, a shopping trip is a rarity for me.
I've never spent money on clothes.
Look. Look.
There are used clothes that look like new,
so why waste money?
Hang on.
Wow. This has your name on it.
Try this on.
I threw that out.
I said no to the jacket earlier
to help you save money,
but how can you
gift me a secondhand jacket?
Geez.
This is called recycling.
Oh, my goodness.
Where are all my empty bottles
and wastepaper?
I gave them to the old lady who collects them.
Why would you give them away?
We can get $2.50
at the junkyard.
We can let her have that, can't we?
Do you like money that much?
Yes, I love money.
You didn't know?
Fine.
Then let me ask you something.
What do you love more? Me or money?
My goodness.
What a juvenile question.
It's like asking a child
to choose between her parents.
How is that the same?
You won't answer me?
Let's have this
and make up, okay?
But why'd you insist on
bringing me here?
Geez, Taejun.
I'll ask you again.
Do you love me or money better?
Good grief.
As much as I love money,
how can it compare to you?
- Right? / - Oh, no.
Oh, my goodness.
How cute.
You got chili sauce on you.
Ma'am,
can we have some napkins?
Here you go.
Wipe it off with this.
It won't wipe off that easily.
What is this?
Oh, wow. My goodness.
Good heavens.
What in the world?
Oh, wow.
I saw on TV that
this is how young guys propose these days.
If I knew how happy you'd be,
I would've done it sooner.
Oh, my goodness.
I'm so happy.
I'm so happy that I could cry.
It just keeps on coming.
Good heavens.
Go ahead and cry.
I don't know what we're doing, sneaking in
like tomcats morning and night.
I'm hungry.
This is when Midal is the busiest,
so we must eat now.
Don't worry.
There's no way Midal will call
the cops on her only brother.
Hey, Lee Baedal.
Midal, Midal, Midal.
Ms. Lee...
Listen, Ms. Kim.
Shame on you at your age
for talking your gullible
son-in-law into pulling a franchising scam.
And you, are you trying to
your husband behind bars?
Behind bars?
It's a misunderstanding.
Baedal did nothing wrong.
That's right.
We just wanted to make a little off
my daughter-in-law's franchise.
How is that a crime?
Fine then.
Let's go the police and
tell them there was no scam
as it was authorized
by President Bae Gukhui.
Lead the way.
Midal, why get the police involved?
This is something the family
can resolve on our own.
Don't worry, Midal.
I'll take care of it.
Hey, numskull.
Where are you going?
Goodness gracious.
Every inch of my body is sore
from being on the run.
Good heavens.
Peanut must be stressed.
My stomach feels knotty.
Jeonggi.
Son.
What in the world were you trying to pull?
Don't you know that forgery is a serious crime?
How could you steal our franchise contract
and use Jeonggi's name
to sell it?
No, you see...
We were just trying to help you.
We wanted to
make you money by signing a franchisee.
Do you think I don't know that
you offered a 50% discount
and charged a finder's fee?
Gukhui,
we were driven by desperation.
It pained us to see my brother
being a kitchenmaid here,
so we wanted to get him
his own studio for him to
gain some confidence.
You're shameless too, Jeongmi.
I have nothing more to say.
Take mother and move out.
Must you drive out the entire family?
I'm not moving out.
Call the police if you
want to kick us out.
Get the police to drag me out.
Hello?
Hurry. Hurry.
How cold-hearted is she?
Did she really call the police?
I think so.
The way she was on the phone...
What are we going to do?
Where can we go?
Quick. quick.
Come on in.
Why didn't you call me
and let me know?
Aran did tell us to come here, but...
I'm not sure we should be staying here.
I'll be out all day
and only sleep here.
No, no. Make yourselves at home.
But did Ms. Bae really kick all of you out?
My goodness.
We have no one
to turn to with our sorrows.
She said she'd put us behind bars
if we didn't leave.
Goodness gracious.
How can she do such a thing?
So you just let her get away with it?
What could we do?
We have no power.
That's true.
None of us have any power
before the almighty Ms. Bae.
My goodness.
You can make yourselves at home for the night.
Whether we like it or not,
Ms. Bae does
provide for us,
so we must reconcile with her.
I promise to be your liaison.
What's with this apartment?
It's a proposal gift.
(Lease Agreement)
I told you.
I want to start a family early.
The bank owns more than half.
I'll be making monthly payments
on the lease though.
Won't this do for our first home?
I'm at a loss for words.
Let's get married right after my dad
and Ms. Lee's wedding.
But without our parents' permission...
There's only one thing on my mind right now.
To be by your side to make sure
no one hurts you.
That's why we must live together.
Let's forever be there for one another, okay?
Okay.
I prayed every night for god to bring you to me.
You're finally by my side.
Love ordained from above,
we'll live to the fullest
with body and soul.
Shouldn't our families be the first to get this?
I doubt any of them will welcome this.
I'll be good to you.
I'll make you happy and
prove everyone wrong.
Don't worry.
We'll be very happy and
prove our families wrong.
What if our families see us?
Who cares?
We love each other
and will be responsible.
How dare they?
Midal, just focus on me.
An independent lab also concluded that
our competitor's wine is but a cheap knockoff.
We're actually happy that this served
to reaffirm the incomparable
quality of our wines.
I heard you're a quiet benefactor of
charities for children and
and the underprivileged.
I don't do much.
She made sizeable donations to a nursing home
and an orphanage this past Seollal.
Ma'am,
just so do as I told you to.
You trust me, right?
Of course.
If I can get my cocky daughter-in-law
to bow down to me,
why not?
At Punggildang, making profit is second to
bringing people comfort with good wines.
We make wines that are about sharing and love.
My goodness, Gukhui.
I'm sorry.
I understand why you kicked me out.
Mother, what are you doing?
I should have just taken it
no matter how hard you were on me.
Why did I dare defy you?
Your pregnant sister-in-law almost
suffered a miscarriage,
but it's all our fault.
Grandma, what are you doing?
We're suspending the interview.
Please step outside.
She shouldn't do this with the press here.
It's a family matter, so we ask
you for your understanding.
I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.
These are for the press to taste.
Oh, my goodness.
My poor granddaughter.
What use is finding your parents after 20 years?
You're back at your adoptive mother's because
they didn't welcome you and kicked you out.
Grandma, what are you talking about?
Did you see that?
The press was on a feeding frenzy
like they got a major scoop.
Mother, you took it too far.
Didn't you see how flustered my mom was?
You did it on purpose?
Focus, you two.
This is when we can cripple Ms. Bae
so she appreciates you guys
and respects Gilsu for all the hard work
he's done for her.
I got all the reporters' business cards.
I'll take care of this from now on,
so rest assured.
And Aran,
don't tell me I'm too harsh and
use this opportunity to oust your mother.
You can be president,
and Taeho can be vice president.
What did you just say?
Bom...
We didn't say anything.
Do what to Ms. Bae?
Nothing.
Mind your own business and scram.
Leave mom alone.
I won't let it slide, even if it's you.
