(Episode 77)
Where do you think you're running off to like rats?
Did you think I'd let you run away so easily?
Take them to the police station right now.
Ms. Hong Se Na and Ms. Ma Yoo Kyung.
You need to come with us to the police station...
for forgery and attempted scam.
We'll arrest you without a warrant to prevent you from running away.
- Mom. - My goodness.
Mom. Se Na.
- No, wait. Please. - My goodness.
My gosh, wait.
Are you okay?
Yes, I'm okay.
We would've missed them if we got here a minute too late.
Let's go, Mother.
Thank you for letting us know.
Ruby.
What brings you here at this hour?
I felt a little uneasy,
so I didn't want to stay at home.
But when I came outside, I didn't have anywhere to go.
- Did I disturb you? - No.
Are you upset because of Sun Ho?
Both his engagements ended up not working out.
I'm starting to blame myself as his mother.
He'll get through this.
Se Na's the problem.
You already know...
how devoted she is to Sun Ho.
I don't know how I'm going to face her from now on.
Hi, Se Kang.
What? Mother and Se Na?
Okay, I'll be right there.
- What's going on? - What should we do?
Mother and Se Na got taken to the police station.
- What? - My goodness.
Eun Jung, I need to go to the police station.
- I'll see you at home. - Okay.
My gosh, I can't believe this.
This is unbelievable.
(Police)
What should we do now, Se Na?
- Mom. - Mother.
Mother, are you okay?
Se Na.
Se Kang, do we really have no way out of this?
They have Seo Moon Joo's testimony.
And they have evidence to prove that you forged the DNA test results.
So there's absolutely no way out of this.
Then what's going to happen to them?
Does that mean they're going to end up in prison?
Go to Yi Ran.
Go to Yi Ran, and ask her for forgiveness.
She's right. Let's go to Ms. Yoon.
- We need to try whatever we can. - Okay.
Se Na, take good care of Mom.
- We'll be right back. - We'll be right back, Mother.
- I'll see you later. - My goodness.
My goodness gracious.
We're so busy these days.
Why isn't the head office sending us anyone to replace Ms. Ma?
That's exactly my point. She even got taken to the police station.
What? Ms. Ma got taken to the police station?
Didn't you know?
Ms. Ma and Ms. Hong are...
in a holding cell right now for faking Ms. Yoon's daughter.
- My gosh. - My goodness.
Then are they going to go to prison?
Ms. Yoon's very persistent about punishing them.
It's their first offense, so I don't think...
they'll get sentenced to prison.
They even failed to get...
Ms. Yoon's shares, so that only makes it an attempted scam.
But Ms. Yoon has a lot of power,
You know so much.
How do you know so much about crime?
What?
I just happen to know a lot of things.
Se Na, Sun Ho's here.
Why did you come when you're not even going to help?
Were you planning to live the rest of your life like a fugitive?
Running away won't solve anything.
It's not too late to confess everything you know.
You can set things right, and have a new start.
If that's what you're here to say, you can go back.
Se Na.
Can't you see?
I'm doing this for you. It's not too late to set things right.
You already know what happened at the summer house four years ago,
and why Dal Nim's mother suddenly had to...
disappear.
It's true that I faked Ms. Yoon's daughter,
but I have nothing to do with everything else.
I'm sick and tired of having to say the same thing over and over again.
Se Na.
I told you to stop. You should leave now.
Just wait and see.
I'm going to do whatever it takes...
to get out of here.
I can't believe they got taken to the police station.
I guess they're finally paying for their crimes.
Se Kang and Ruby should be home by now.
How did it go?
Did you meet Ms. Yoon?
Ms. Yoon didn't even wish to see us.
I guess she's made up her mind already.
I guess there's no other way out of this.
They'll just have to pay for what they did wrong.
I'm very sorry for worrying everyone.
I'm very ashamed.
I'll go upstairs now.
Mom, did you really have to say that?
She said nothing wrong.
People need to get punished if they did something bad.
You guys are way too mean.
You're so coldhearted.
Mother was right.
You liked Se Na when she could help you, but you don't anymore.
You don't even know anything, Ruby.
You should be grateful that things ended here.
- That jerk, Se Kang... - Dad.
I'm so disappointed in every one of you.
You shouldn't be doing this if you care about me and Se Kang.
I now understand why Se Kang always wanted to...
move out of this house.
- Ms. Kang Sun Ae's here. - Welcome.
You may excuse us.
Sit down.
You must've been startled to hear from me so suddenly.
Why did you want to see me?
There's something I want to ask you.
You can ask me anything.
Remember what you told me when you came to my house last time?
Were you really telling me the truth?
Don't exaggerate or leave anything out. Just tell me the truth.
Yes, Ms. Yoon. Everything I told you is true.
Please believe me. Why would I lie to you?
You probably didn't know anything,
but Jae Hee really went through a hard time...
because Se Na tried to... disturbe Jae Hee from...
getting married to Sun Ho.
That's why she even tried to send Se Na overseas to study.
She tried to send her overseas to study?
Jae Hee was trying to be considerate of Se Na.
She tried to end the situation by sending her abroad.
She thought she'd be able to solve the situation...
without having to let you or Sun Ho know about anything.
She thought Se Na would be able to get over Sun Ho...
if she spent some time abroad.
She was also planning to start working...
at Choigo Foods since the team manager position...
would've been vacant if Se Na had accepted the offer.
I want to start working at a company.
That's great.
But not our company.
I want to try working at Choigo Foods.
Then was Se Na the reason why...
Jae Hee wanted to start working at...
Choigo Foods instead of Hyunsung?
Yes, Ms. Yoon.
Thank you for coming here.
Please forget about all the mean things I said to you...
the last time you came here.
I know you did that because you didn't know.
Would it be okay for me to call you again?
Yes, of course.
I'm just so relieved to see that you're believing me now.
- I'll go now. - Okay.
I didn't know you had a guest over. I'm sorry if I disturbed you.
No, it's okay. Please sit down.
Is it true that Ms. Hong got taken to the police station?
Yes, it's true.
My goodness, what happened?
Why did you turn backs on each other?
I thought you thought of her like your own daughter.
Please don't talk about her in front of me from now on.
I need to know what happened to choose sides.
Plus, she's the one who introduced me to you.
If I turn my back on her...
Don't stay too close to Ms. Hong.
She's very cunning.
She deceived me and tried to...
take my shares of Choigo Foods.
This is all I have to say to you.
I need to go to the police station right now.
Okay.
What happened? Did you meet Yi Ran?
She didn't even let me inside the house.
She found out that Dal Nim's her real daughter.
I'm sure she's not going to forgive us easily.
She's probably going to throw us off a cliff.
But we can't just stand still and do nothing.
We need to come up with something...
Se Kang, why don't you try calling...
Dal Nim's mother?
I think we should tell Ms. Yoon...
about how she's doing right now.
Oh, that?
Yes. We can't do anything right now because we're locked in here.
So you should tell her about Dal Nim's mother on behalf of us.
And tell Ms. Yoon that we'll...
go say hi to her once we get out of here.
- Do you understand? - Yes, I understand.
They're telling me to use Dal Nim's mother to threaten Ms. Yoon.
I'm a lawyer.
I can't believe I have to do this kind of stuff.
My gosh, this is driving me crazy.
It's time to take your medicine.
We're out of medicine now.
Here.
I should ask Ms. Ma for some more medicine.
It's Ms. Ma.
Hey, Ms. Ma. I was just about to...
I'm Ms. Ma's son.
Why are you calling instead of her?
She's at the police station right now.
Why? Did we get caught?
What are we going to do?
You'll be safe if you do as I say.
So listen to me carefully.
What is it this time?
I can't go to you myself because someone might follow me.
I'll send you a new illegal phone,
so that no one will be able to trace your location.
Bring Dal Nim's mother outside far away from the motel.
You must be happy to come outside.
I finally feel alive now.
Aunt Soon Hee, hold this for a moment.
(Hanmin Daily)
What are you doing?
Just a second.
I heard everything from Jae Wook, and I also met Sun Ae.
I heard you tried to stop Jae Hee from...
getting married to Sun Ho because you were jealous of her.
The black box, bracelet, Jo Byung Soo, and Dal Nim's mother.
You guys were behind everything, weren't you?
That's why you framed Dal Nim for what you did.
I don't understand what you're saying.
You shouldn't say that without having any evidence.
Shut it.
You guys aren't even human.
You're just a devil who killed Jae Hee.
You already did enough by killing Jae Hee.
How could you even go further and falsely accuse Dal Nim?
Do you think you have the right to say that kind of thing to me?
You're the one who abandoned your own baby.
Maybe this is karma coming back...
to get you for what you did wrong in the past.
Okay.
If that's the case, I should purge away my sin.
I'm going to protect my daughter, Dal Nim.
I'm going to become a devil like you if I have to...
in order to protect her.
This is just the beginning.
While you're doing your time in prison,
I'm going to investigate everything regarding Jae Hee's death,
and I'm going to have you rot in prison for the rest of your life.
You won't be able to do that.
I can't believe you're still so confident.
Things will become different if I tell you that...
we have Dal Nim's mother with us.
What?
What did you just say?
I'll tell you one more time.
We have Dal Nim's mother with us.
Quit playing tricks.
I know you're just trying to get out of this by lying to me.
You can see for yourself...
if I'm lying or not.
(Hanmin Daily)
The safety of Dal Nim's mother is now in your hands.
You never know what one might do if you corner them too much.
I need to survive too.
I can't just die like this.
How dare you?
Dal Nim's mother is the person who raised the daughter...
that you had abandoned.
If Dal Nim finds out that something happened to her mother...
because of you,
do you think you'll be able to endure her resentment towards you?
I noticed that Dal Nim already resents you a lot...
for having lost her mother right before her eyes...
because of you.
- If anything bad happens to... - That's enough.
What do you want?
I want you to drop all charges against us,
so that we won't have to face criminal punishment.
Also, I want you to reinstate my mom as the owner of the restaurant.
It'll be pointless to report this to the police.
We didn't kidnap and imprison her.
She willingly came with us.
You know that we took care of her for four years, right?
She came with us because she trusted us.
Fine. I'll do as you wish.
Instead, give me Dal Nim's mother to me.
I can't do that.
We'll keep her safe. You should just be satisfied with that.
Really?
Then I won't be able to do anything for you either.
Do as you wish.
I'll give you time to think about it until tomorrow morning.
If you refuse my request,
Dal Nim will never be able to see her mother for the rest of her life.
I hope you'll make a wise decision.
I'll be off now.
(Hanmin Daily)
She's holding today's newspaper.
That means she's safe.
It's a relief,
but I'm worried to hear that she's not doing well.
From the looks of the video,
it doesn't seem like they're keeping her with them against her will.
Mr. Park's looking into this,
so he'll be able to tell us something soon.
How did it go?
I traced the cell phone that sent you the video.
It turned out to be an illegal cell phone.
I looked into where the video was taken.
The background of the video matched with Hyangju Park.
Then ask some men to search that area.
That's going to be useless.
Time's already passed, so I'm sure they already ran away.
If Jo Byung Soo's the one who's looking after Dal Nim's mother,
they probably asked him to take this video.
I'm sure the planned things out strategically...
seeing that they even thought about using an illegal cell phone.
I can't believe they made planned to make a fool out of me.
Mother, we need to be coolheaded right now.
Dal Nim's mother's safety is the most important thing right now.
I think you should do what Se Na asked you to do.
Let's think of what to do next after that.
Drop all charges,
and reinstate Yoo Kyung as the owner of the restaurant again.
You can explain everything to the police.
Okay, ma'am.
Don't tell Dal Nim about the video.
She'll be worried if she finds out.
Okay, I won't.
Se Na and Ms. Ma are both...
going to end up in prison.
I feel so relieved now.
We can't be sure of that yet.
Haven't you heard from Jo Byung Soo yet?
He won't even pick up.
What if he went somewhere far away with your mother?
(Matna Short Rib Soup)
Ms. Ma!
Why are you guys all standing here?
You should get changed, and get ready for work.
Ms. Ma, did you get reinstated?
I thought you got fired.
What are you talking about?
I just took a few days off...
because I was too burned out from having worked so hard.
I got some good rest, so I should get back to work now.
You must've gotten a good rest at the holding cell.
What did you say?
I don't know what you heard, but they're all lies.
Can't you tell that by seeing me back here again?
If anyone offends me by saying anything about a holding cell,
I'm going to sue that person for defamation.
Do you understand?
- Okay. - Okay.
Why?
Do you want to know how we managed to get out?
You can ask Jae Wook if you're so curious.
What happened?
Did something happen overnight?
Well...
I think Se Na knows my mother's weakness.
She must've used that to make a deal with my mother.
Does it have anything to do with the recipe leak?
I don't know the specifics.
But this isn't going to be the end.
My mother had to back down for now because she didn't have a choice.
It won't be easy if her weakness...
got caught by Se Na.
Do you think she'll be able to...
sacrifice herself to help me?
I'm pretty sure she's going to compromise with Se Na.
Why are you so surprised?
How did you get out?
I'm happy to see you again.
I guess you're not.
I asked how you managed to get out.
Ms. Yoon dropped all charges against us.
What kind of deal did you make with Ms. Yoon?
Is it related to the recipe leak? If not, what is it?
You can think whatever you want.
What's important is that my mom and I managed to get released safely.
I heard you were going to take disciplinary action on me.
But you won't need to do that anymore since I got released.
Our marriage is going to get back on track,
now that I've come back to where I belong.
We already canceled our marriage.
No, we haven't.
Our marriage will never get canceled.
Do you know how hard it was for me to get to where I am right now?
Why do you think I struggled to live such a hard life?
It was all because of you.
Letting go of you would be the same thing as...
letting go of my life.
I waited here to tell you this.
I'm going to get back to work now.
Ms. Ma, have some tofu.
No, it's okay.
You need to eat this to never set foot in a holding cell again.
You don't want to go there again, do you?
Hurry up, and eat some.
I'm glad things didn't get any worse.
Okay.
Thank you.
By the way, how did you get released?
Well...
Ms. Yoon decided to let us go for old times' sake.
Thank you for letting me know about Dal Nim last time.
We didn't even know Dal Nim was following us. If we went there...
Go where?
Anyway, I'll never forget what you did for us.
Don't mention it.
You can ask me for help anytime.
Mother.
My goodness, are you okay?
I'll leave you two to talk then.
Did you run over here because you were worried about me?
Yes, of course.
I guess you already had tofu.
Mother, what happened?
Did Ms. Yoon let you go?
I'm sure you were going through a lot.
It must've been hard for you to make this decision.
You did ask me to drop charges against them,
and I figured it was enough to have showed them their lesson.
Like you said,
I did think of them like my family for many years.
I didn't feel comfortable...
to see them locked up in a holding cell.
If you start hating someone, that hatred will never end.
I'm sure Se Na will look back on what she did wrong and regret.
I know you care for Se Na...
because her brother's married to your daughter.
But you still shouldn't keep her close...
to prevent anything bad from happening to you.
You must also never let...
Sun Ho get married to Se Na.
I understand.
I'll keep that in mind.
How are Se Kang and Ruby doing?
I heard they're completely in love with each other.
Se Kang's ashamed of what's been happening recently.
But they still love each other very much.
But why do you suddenly ask about Ruby and Se Kang?
No, it's nothing.
Well, I hope you'll be able to let go of what happened,
and manage to become calm again.
Yes, of course.
What?
Se Na has Dal Nim's mother?
That's why my mother had no choice but to meet her request.
It was important to keep Dal Nim's mother safe.
I figured she might've made a deal with Ms. Yoon to get released.
I can't believe she has Dal Nim's mother with her.
- Does Dal Nim know about this? - No, not yet.
If she finds out, she'll throw a fit.
We're planning to find her, and bring her back...
before Dal Nim finds out.
So don't tell Dal Nim anything.
Okay, I understand.
I hope Dal Nim's mother is safe.
My mother hired some men...
and ordered them to look for her everywhere.
So I'm sure we'll be able to hear something from them soon.
Ms. Yoon can continue to do what she's doing.
Meanwhile, I think we should try to find Jo Byung Soo ourselves.
I guess it's not easy for you to punish Se Na.
You've done so many things with her until now,
so I'm not surprised to hear that she knows your weakness.
As long as you're connected with her in any kind of way,
it won't be easy for you to catch her.
You guys are already tied together like fishnets.
So if she says she won't die alone,
you won't have a choice but to give in to her.
I had a reason for backing down this time.
You'll never be able to catch Se Na if you calculate...
what you might gain or lose.
You'll never be able to succeed if you're not determined enough...
to sacrifice yourself to catch her.
That's why I told you before that I don't need your help.
I'll be off now.
I'm sorry, Dal Nim.
I can't reveal my identity to you just yet,
so please wait until I can.
Hello, Ms. Yoon.
I felt like I should officially thank you.
Thank you for forgiving us and letting us get released.
Cut that nonsense. How despicable.
What's wrong with you?
I'm just trying to thank you out of sincerity.
Do you think you'll be safe after doing this?
No way.
I let you go this time because I didn't have a choice.
But I'm not going to let you fool me like this.
And you better not do anything to my daughter, Dal Nim.
If you do anything to harm her,
I don't know what I might end up doing to you.
Why are you just watching her from afar...
if you care for her so much?
Dal Nim doesn't seem to know about anything.
You're close enough to hug her if you want to.
Why aren't you telling her that you're her real mother?
She deserves to know, doesn't she?
On top of that,
she didn't even seem to know that her mother's with us right now.
If she knew,
she would've came to us and thrown a fit.
But she hasn't done a thing.
It's none of your business.
I'll tell her myself if I have to.
If you do anything before I do, you won't be safe.
You better keep that in mind.
Are you saying Yi Ran hasn't revealed to Dal Nim...
that she's her real mother,
and that we're the ones who have her foster mother right now?
I'm definite that Ms. Yoon's scared to reveal...
that she's Dal Nim's real mother.
Why do you think she hasn't told Dal Nim...
anything yet?
Yes, I think you're right.
She's done so many bad things to Dal Nim until now.
If you think about it,
Dal Nim also lost her baby because of Yi Ran as well.
On top of that, Dal Nim lost...
her mother right before her eyes because of Yi Ran.
Even I don't think I'd be able to reveal my identity if I were her.
I'd be too scared to tell her who I am.
Ms. Yoon's biggest weakness is Dal Nim.
We'll be able to get what we want from her...
if we succeed in using Dal Nim to our advantage.
But what are we going to do about Dal Nim's mother and Jo Byung Soo?
Until when do we have to leave them there?
Yi Ran and Dal Nim are looking for her everywhere.
We need to come up with a solution.
I think...
we should send Jo Byung Soo and Dal Nim's mother abroad.
"Abroad"?
I guess he didn't show up today either.
He must be hiding well.
Ms. Ma and Se Na only recently got released...
from the police station.
So I'm sure he's being more careful.
You should go back to the company.
Is it okay for you to leave your office all the time?
Dal Nim. You didn't study so well when you were in school, did you?
That's not true!
Seeing you get so angry like this...
tells me that you really didn't study that well.
My gosh, why are you bringing that up all of a sudden?
Just because you sit on a desk for a long time...
doesn't mean you get good grades.
So what's your point?
I'm saying I don't need to be at the office all the time...
to get good results regarding my performance.
So you don't need to worry about me...
leaving the office often.
I'll go back to work now. I'll come back tomorrow.
Bye, Ms. Clumsy.
My gosh, why does he always say I'm clumsy?
What brings you here, Director Hyun?
I was nearby, and I got reminded of the past.
I'm sure you didn't come to talk to me about your past.
Then I'll cut straight to the chase.
What happened between you and Ms. Yoon?
I deserve to know...
why you turned your backs on each other.
I was planning to go see you soon.
I'm glad you're here.
I don't think Ms. Yoon and I will be working together from now on.
Why are you on bad terms with her?
I need to know in order to choose whose side I should be on.
Ms. Yoon will only end up abandoning you...
once she's done using you.
Once Food and Top becomes stable in the market,
she'll disregard you right away.
She even promised me that she's going to take over Hyun Foods.
I don't think it'll be easy for her to get rid of me.
Is taking over Hyun Foods all it takes to satisfy you?
Ms. Yoon earned a lot of money...
from the recipe leak.
To be frank, you and I were the ones...
who planned and carried out the recipe leak.
Ms. Yoon just gained a lot of profit...
from following our lead.
That's true.
Ms. Yoon may have promised to...
take over Hyun Foods to you.
But I can offer you something a lot bigger than that.
"Something a lot bigger"?
Tell me what you want.
How will you be able to get me what I want?
I'm in full control of Ms. Yoon's weakness.
Can't you already tell by seeing that I got released from...
the police station overnight?
What is it that you want?
Go on. Tell me.
Will you be able to give me Food and Top?
Yes, but you need to tell me the little secret...
between you and Ms. Cha.
Tell me Ms. Cha's weakness.
If you do,
I'll let you have Food and Top.
What do you want to say to me?
I'll get straight to the point.
I'd like you to transfer all your remaining shares of...
Choigo Foods to me.
What did you say?
Have you gone crazy?
I'm completely sane right now.
I think you're the one who's not thinking straight.
You haven't forgotten that Dal Nim's mother is...
with us, have you?
And if you're having trouble telling Dal Nim...
that you're her real mother,
I'll tell her myself.
I just feel so sorry for Dal Nim...
whenever I look at her.
Her birth mother is right in front of her,
but she keeps looking for her foster mother who already abandoned her.
I told you not to mess with Dal Nim.
- What's wrong with you? - I have no other hidden intentions.
I'm just trying to help you...
because it seems like you're being hesitant to tell her.
Dal Nim will be here soon.
I told her to come.
Are you really trying to go against me like this?
Welcome. Sit down.
What is it that you want to say to me?
I told you to come because there's something you must know.
Something I must know?
I came here during break time,
so I need to go back to the restaurant soon.
Hurry up, and get to the point.
Listen carefully to what I'm about to tell you right now.
To be honest,
your mother...
(Sweet Enemy)
I'll give you Dal Nim's mother.
How do you expect me to trust you and sign this?
I have a plan.
Where are we traveling to?
They're leaving abroad tonight.
We need to catch them before they get away.
- It's me, Dal Nim! - Dal Nim! Dal Nim!
Mom! Mom!
