(Episode 40)
Excuse me.
Are you Mr. Choi Soo Chan?
Yes, I am.
Hello.
My name is Han Jang Soo.
I have something to tell you about Suseongjae.
Who are you?
How do you know Suseongjae?
I have proof...
that Suseongjae belongs to your family.
Proof? What is it?
I can't tell you here.
May I speak to you for a moment?
Yes, of course.
Eun Byul, you should go home.
Should I call Han Joo?
It's okay. Let's go.
Okay.
What kind of a proof does he have?
Han Seung Joo.
Han Seung Joo?
Father.
He's not here.
Gosh, that was close.
"I, Han Seung Joo hereby promise not to tell the truth..."
"behind the name transfer of Suseongjae..."
"with Park Sang Cheol."
"As a compensation, Park Sang Cheol will provide..."
"100,000 dollars in cash."
"Han Seung Joo will no longer ask Park Sang Cheol of anything,"
"and promise to not speak of anything regarding this."
What is this?
That man, Han Seung Joo is my grandpa.
He was a civil servant when the name transfer was made.
He helped Park Sang Cheol in the process,
and received money as a compensation.
Are you saying what's written on this agreement is true?
Yes, it was notarized at the time,
and I had it authenticated as an antique document.
There won't be any problem for it to be used as a proof.
Could I ask you how you came to the possession of this?
My grandpa gave it to my dad when he passed away.
Then before my dad passed away, it was handed down to me.
He told me that Park Sang Cheol's descendant...
will be able to help me out.
Wait, then...
did you meet Park Sang Goo?
I came to you first.
Thank you.
This is such a precious document.
Then do you think you can help me out?
Of course.
I want to stand by the truth.
Thank you.
But I do have a condition.
A condition?
Of course, tell me.
Is he Han Seung Joo's descendant?
I should've gotten his number.
I can't let him see Choi.
I'm sure he'll be back. He's probably after money.
Honey.
My goodness, why do you people never knock?
What are you doing?
He's here. What do you mean, he isn't?
He really wasn't here.
You were here before, were you?
What? I've been here the whole time.
What? No way.
You heard him.
Do you have bad eyesights?
No, I'm sure he really wasn't here.
Stop making a fuss, and get out of my room.
Why are you so serious?
The trial went well too.
- Is something wrong? - No.
(Agreement)
He had it notarized and authenticated.
I see, it looks fine.
But why is he helping us?
He wants to stand by the truth.
Doesn't he have any condition?
He needs money.
How much?
He'll let us know soon.
If he needed money, he should've gone to Park Sang Goo.
Why did he come to us?
He might be two-timing us.
There are many people...
who will betray you the last minute.
If he didn't say it right away,
he might make a deal with Park Sang Goo too.
We've been grasping at straws.
We should be grateful that a witness showed up.
- Yes. - You're right.
You should stay calm.
Don't trust him too much.
Talk to Lawyer Oh tomorrow.
That sounds good.
Aunt Soon Young, why aren't you saying anything?
Me?
Do I have to say something?
When Father transferred ownership of Suseongjae to himself,
that man's grandfather helped him as a civil servant.
He could become a crucial witness.
Why did you kick him out?
I thought he was just a crazy person who is after my money.
What's going to happen? Will the verdict be reversed?
No way.
We should keep his mouth shut. He'll come back here soon.
What those guys want is money.
I hope he will come back.
Don't say anything to the kids.
He was definitely not there.
But when I went back with Mother, he was sitting at his desk.
He probably went out for a moment.
I was in the living room.
It's so strange.
Eun Byul isn't replying.
Serves her right. She was so confident.
What are you talking about?
We won the second trial.
Eun Byul and I made a bet.
She'd be so upset right now.
What did you bet on? Money?
My everything.
Me?
Didn't he look like a con artist?
I couldn't tell.
He looked somewhat ordinary, but not ordinary at all.
He seemed to be in his mid-40s.
I'm even more confused now.
Right?
By the way, how much would he ask for?
What if he asks for too much?
I'm not sure. We could never beat Park Sang Goo with money.
Then we should move his heart and win him over.
That might be even harder than paying him.
You're right. Winning someone's heart is difficult.
Let's look for something that could move his heart.
Tonight, our witness is away.
The moon needs some rest too.
Let's go home now.
Drink it up. Right now.
I never drink without guys.
How many times did I tell you?
Nothing could happen...
at a place like this.
Dae Poong is on his way here.
He's a good guy.
Stop playing hard to get and go out with him.
I don't even want to hear his name.
I should leave before he comes.
- Oh, my. - Mi Ja.
Put that away. It's old-fashioned.
The real old-fashioned guy, Han Joo, is on his way.
Really?
- Is he coming here? - He looked so cool.
Dae Poong, you saw him too, right?
All I saw was Soon Young falling in front of a pretentious guy.
There was no cool guy.
A pretentious guy?
I knew it.
Your lips look like red rose petals.
Are you here to sell roses?
Tell Han Joo I'm washing my hands when he arrives.
Gosh, you idiot.
With your both arms raised, you don't look serious enough.
I like your smile here, Father.
What do you think?
He looks relaxed and trustworthy.
You can see all his wrinkles from his smiles.
It's because I haven't gotten any injections.
I'll have them blurred out.
Don't do that, Father.
These days, it's popular to show your wrinkles and Gray hair...
to look more relaxed and friendly.
People don't like unnatural photos.
You're so handsome.
Even your Gray hair and wrinkles will look good.
All right.
Please take a look at the slogans too.
"Clean politics, competent worker."
"A country where the people are happy."
"Our town's CEO."
They sound too ordinary.
Nothing really speaks to your heart.
They don't have much impact.
Do you have any good idea?
Let me design your posters.
I'll come up with a nice slogan too.
Can you do that?
Mother. I majored in design.
I used to be the head of PR department as well.
Geum Byul is an expert at image marketing.
All right. Head of PR, show us what you can do.
Okay, Father.
Hey, come take a look at photos of your father.
I'm going to use them on my campaign posters.
How do they look to a journalist?
Well, they look great.
I'm sorry.
I'm running late. I have to go.
Are you just a lodger?
Take some interest in family matters.
Otherwise, pay me rent.
The lodger is leaving.
I'm heading to work too. I have to stop by at the factory.
All right. I should get going too.
See you, Father. Have a nice day.
You too.
- See you. - See you.
Father doesn't seem to be angry at me anymore.
I told him you're working hard.
Still, stay on alert.
Okay, Mother.
Can I go see my mother for a moment?
I want to see her before her restaurant opens.
All right. You've been working so hard.
Get some fresh air. I'll give you two hours.
Two hours?
Let me try.
The sweetness is just right.
I used syrup. The taste became much cleaner.
This is for your parents.
You don't have to do this.
Bring it to them.
Sikhye and sujeonggwa are the best in the summer.
There is nothing old people like more than them.
I like them too.
Take a taxi. I'll pay for it.
I have money.
Just take it.
Okay.
All right.
Thank you.
You two are coming in together.
My mother-in-law made sikhye and sujeonggwa for you.
She didn't have to.
Please thank her for me.
I'll get going.
Already? Stay a bit longer.
I know what you're going to talk about.
No. I won't talk about it.
Stay a bit longer.
I won't ask you any favor. You're so petty.
Last time, you came empty-handed and left with full hands.
Did you come empty-handed today too?
Are you going to leave with full hands again?
Why do you care?
Gosh, what is with you?
Take a look at the table, Geum Byul.
Right.
I should take a look at the table Min Ho bought for you guys.
A table?
How is it? Is it nice?
It's great. With a fancy table,
the kitchen looks so elegant.
It looks great even with just a few dishes.
It's made of solid wood. It's good for your health, you know.
Min Ho even took your health into account when choosing a table.
He's not just a son-in-law.
He's like your son.
Of course, he's my son. A golden son.
This tastes great.
All right, then.
Here you are.
What do you want to do during their opening?
We have to make sure our in-laws don't run into each other.
Our shop's opening day isn't the problem.
The problem is with the actors.
Eun Byul should be there...
I thought you weren't going to bring this up.
I'm not. I don't need your help.
Mom, it's okay because we called an actor to play Han Joo.
- What? - Did you hire a fake Han Joo?
Yes.
What? It doesn't matter.
Yes, you can take care of the whole situation.
Make sure you two set up a schedule...
for our opening day so that they don't run into each other.
Okay, don't worry.
How much is your heart's worth anyway?
But even if you gave it out, I won't have it.
Winning the trial doesn't mean that it's the truth.
You should get 1,000 dollars ready.
I think I'm going to have it soon.
I'm leaving.
Did you borrow 1,000 dollars from her?
I think she needs some psychological therapy.
What are you talking about?
We won the second trial,
but she can't accept the truth, and says all those nonsense.
Did you win the second trial?
I'm so glad.
Of course, the truth always wins.
Of course.
Did you just say Suseongjae belongs to someone else?
Who on earth are you?
Who are you to say such nonsense?
I think you know who Choi Soo Chan is.
Are you saying...
he is the real owner of Suseongjae?
What's your ground?
What is this?
This is a proof which can be used...
to find out who the true owner of Suseongjae is.
Please do understand I'm showing you a picture for security reasons.
If this agreement gets taken in as a proof at the court,
Suseongjae's owner will change.
How can I trust this agreement?
It's been notarized. And it's been authenticated too.
If you can't trust it, that's too bad.
What do you want?
You're a young man, so you're very quick too.
It looked like the chairman had no idea at all.
Have you met my dad?
Hello.
I'm at an event where Assemblyman Kim is attending.
It's a housing reconstruction briefing. It sounds boring.
Yes, I'll call you after.
(Housing Reconstruction Briefing)
Why is dad here?
I should go for today.
A million dollars?
I believe Suseongjae is worth that much.
- If not, that's too bad. - By any chance,
did you meet with Choi?
No way.
I didn't think they can help me even if I do meet them.
Okay. I'll call you soon.
You must keep this confidential.
He might want much more than you can imagine.
And he may have made a deal with Park first.
That's what I'm worried about.
That agreement is the last lifeline we have.
Don't worry about it.
The fact that we have a witness at this point is very meaningful.
Park's probably more anxious.
This may overturn his already-won trial.
I need 2 iced vanilla lattes and 1 americano.
Ms. Choi. Ms. Choi?
- What's with her? - She's lovesick.
She's smitten with one of our customers.
Which one?
- Welcome. - Mi Ja.
Ms. Choi, you can't stand around here.
Customers are looking for you. We're really busy.
You can run the place.
And move aside. You're blocking my view.
I can't let this go on.
Mi Ja, I know why Ms. Choi is like this.
She's lovesick. Lovesick.
Goodness, stop blowing into my ears. You're creeping me out.
I also know that she's lovesick.
A million dollars? What a thief!
Dad.
Is that agreement true?
What do you mean? It's a lie.
Don't be fooled with such a forged document.
Please be honest.
I can only help you if you're honest.
What?
If he's a con artist, I'll take care of him.
But if that agreement is true,
we need to find a way.
Are you saying you can't trust what I said?
I don't care what the truth is.
What's important is...
the fact that I'm your son,
so I'll do anything according to your will.
I am...
your son.
That darned family.
It is true that your grandpa transferred his name...
as the owner of this house with that civil servant's help.
But even I don't know...
if it was illegal.
We have many things we can legally expose about your family.
I'll tell the world about how your dad's book is...
filled with fake stories.
Is the autobiography fake?
Eun Byul got so angry saying he plagiarized...
her in-law's history.
Fine.
Let us fight this fight properly, Han Joo.
I'm going to tell them everything after their opening day.
I don't care about Geum Byul.
Is everything going well with the shop?
Yes, we have to schedule the time so our in-laws don't meet.
- Give me your hand. - Okay.
It sounds like we will see some 007 action that day.
What if we expose everything on that day?
Like a soap opera.
What's wrong?
I thought you told dad that you'll tell him in a few days.
It was just a thought.
What's wrong?
It feels like I have a knife on my throat.
I can't even wait a few more days.
I really want the time to stop right now.
When are your in-laws coming?
- At 2pm. - At 4pm.
I wanted it to be further away, but they want to come then.
Tell your in-laws to not be late.
Tell your in-laws to not come so early.
You should just leave when my in-laws come.
I have to tell them you're sick.
(Agreement)
How much did he want?
- A million dollars. - A million dollars?
Did he visit the other party?
He says he didn't because he thought they had no money.
But I can't trust him.
What will you do?
We need to get that agreement...
before Choi's family finds out.
Are you going to pay him the full amount?
I'm not sure.
Anyway, what's wrong?
I was surprised because you called me first.
You didn't seem like the friendly type.
I was passing by, so I thought I would check in.
It's been a while I've seen you, and I wanted a cup of tea.
You must have something.
Why would a busy man like you come here for a cup of tea?
Mother.
I'll take you to the hair salon before we go to their shop.
You are too precious to live in my neighborhood.
Too precious for my son too.
Stop buttering me up with words just because it costs nothing.
You're embarrassing me.
Are Soo Chan and Han Joo coming too?
Han Joo is going in the evening.
I see.
You ordered two more beers, right?
Your food is ready.
Eun Byul.
Go get some more disposable plates and paper cups. They're running out.
Okay.
Enjoy.
We should know.
- Is this the place? - I think so.
Let's go in.
Eun Byul's in-laws will be here soon.
It'll be awkward. I'm going out.
Aren't you going to say hello?
Congratulations.
Myung Ja, congratulations.
You said you'd be here at 4pm.
Why are you so surprised?
Is there a reason we have to be here at 4pm?
- Please have a seat. - Okay.
The place looks nice.
It looks okay.
Have a seat.
You should have kept an eye on them.
Why are they here now?
I was in a meeting. Do something.
Isn't Han Joo there?
No. I have to hang up.
Why isn't Eun Byul picking up her phone?
My goodness.
- This must be the place. - It seems so.
Mother, Father.
- You're here. - Where are you coming from?
I went to the supermarket. Please go in.
- Okay. - Okay.
- Yes. - It tastes good.
It tastes very good.
That's a relief.
Eun Byul isn't picking up her phone.
Go out and stop her in-laws from coming in here.
- Okay. - Is something wrong?
Why do you look so worried?
It's nothing.
Mom, Dad. My in-laws are here.
You're here.
In-laws?
Honey, are you okay?
- Give me some water. - Drink some water.
- What is going on? - What is going on?
Why are they here?
Eun Byul.
Are they your sister's in-laws?
In-laws, my foot.
Are they Eun Byul's in-laws...
we were going to meet today?
Oh, my.
- My goodness. - Honey.
- My goodness. - Father.
(Sisters-in-law will air at 8:55pm on Mondays and Tuesdays.)
(Please continue to send love and support.)
(Sisters-in-law)
They're your in-laws?
- I'm sorry. - This marriage should end.
They ruined his life.
They shouldn't be his in-laws.
- Get out. I said, get out. - Father.
- You brat. - Father.
How dare you come in here?
Get out right now!
Can you divorce Eun Byul?
