All right.
We should eat now.
Ma'am, is that woman I saw Do Hoon's ex-wife?
Young Hwa, do you not trust me?
Well, go on and take Ja Ok's place.
Ja Ok, your shift today is over.
Yes, Ma'am.
Are you really a housekeeper?
Yes, I am.
Really?
You just seem young to be one.
I'm sorry for asking.
What's that?
It's dongchimi.
That sounds delicious.
Can you serve that instead of soup today?
- My gosh. - Goodness!
What...
What do you think you're doing?
Young Hwa, are you all right?
Wipe it down with this.
It's all right. I'm glad for the shower.
Young Hwa, thank you for being so understanding.
You can now go about your other chores.
We should eat.
Yes, of course.
Let's eat.
Do Hoon, did you make this?
It tastes like the food from your packed lunch.
I did.
Of course. He cooks for us all the time.
Really? That's so sweet of him.
Jae Min doesn't seem to be home.
He went to camp and won't be back till this weekend.
I see.
Didn't I tell you to go about your chores?
- Please enjoy. - Thank you.
Young Hwa, you too.
I don't know who made this, but it's delicious.
Mom,
how did it go at Do Hoon's?
Honey, what's wrong?
Shin Ae just asked how things went at Do Hoon's.
You knew, didn't you?
Know what?
About Do Hoon's infidelity.
No, I just heard it for the first time.
Is he cheating on Mo Ah?
Mom, I'm sure you're mistaken.
What exactly did you see?
Well...
No, I must be wrong.
I don't know why my heart's pounding though.
Honey, have some water and calm down.
Here you go.
I must be wrong.
Do Hoon would never do such a thing.
Mo Ah, you did well today.
What are you doing?
If I don't throw it away,
those people will eat it.
My aunt brought us this...
for you and your parents to enjoy.
Throw it away for all I care. It's just dongchimi anyway.
What did you just say?
Fine.
I'm sorry for being too harsh on you earlier.
Don't touch it.
We should talk upstairs in our room.
Our room?
Is this even where I live?
How could you do this when we're not even separated?
Why did you play along. then?
It was your chance to speak up.
How could I?
Your mom threatened to send him abroad,
and we both know...
that she's more than capable.
She even made my dad a murderer,
so how could I?
I'm sorry.
Don't you dare touch Jae Min ever again.
He's not your son anymore.
I want him home tomorrow.
Young Hwa must be running late.
You should come back some other time.
No, I need to tell her this in person today.
Hello, Sir. What brings you by?
I thought I'd stop by.
You seem busy though.
I was at your house with my mom just now.
My house?
Yes, I'm hoping to hang a few paintings in my store.
We stayed for a meal.
Was Do Hoon there too?
- He was. - You know,
- about him... - Sir.
Could you leave our marriage to us?
I don't know what the parents agreed to,
but I really could use the space.
It's not that.
- I mean... - Tae Hak,
Young Hwa's right.
If you push things too hard,
Young Hwa and her dad will be taken aback.
Gosh.
Young Hwa doesn't know anything.
She'll be devastated by the truth,
so you should spare her the pain.
I'd more than love to,
but Myung Sook's already making moves.
She's having them over for meals.
Actually,
it's Do Hoon who seems eager to end things with Mo Ah.
Did he say that to you?
He has a good reason.
When Myung Sook was being questioned by the police...
Did that really happen?
You can understand why Do Hoon's upset.
His wife sacrificed his mom to save a complete stranger.
I'm not saying that what Mo Ah did was wrong,
but families are supposed to be there for each other.
It's just like her to do the right thing.
You should see it from Do Hoon's side.
Forcing him to continue this marriage...
will be hard for both him and Mo Ah.
Are you...
Are you saying that they should divorce?
Of course not.
I just think that we shouldn't upset Assemblyman Cha.
One word from him,
and Myung Sook will face the charges again.
Once that happens, we won't be able to save...
either her or the company.
Still, I can't allow this divorce.
Do Hoon will regret it in the long run,
so how could I let him go through with it?
It doesn't look like the CEO will approve,
so I think it's best if you back away too.
The person...
who has the most to lose from Mo Ah's presence...
isn't Do Hoon or Myung Sook.
It's me.
This is my last chance.
Would your nephew take orders from you when...
he becomes the future CEO?
I know I can easily manipulate him.
Did you have feelings for Young Hwa?
He nearly won me over by asking me to be his son's mom.
Darn.
Why can't I get her out of my mind?
I need to forget about her.
What brings you by at this hour?
I don't know.
Some guests arrived and I was asked to leave.
The madam didn't want you to serve the guests?
That's what I'm telling you.
Things are tense around the house these days.
I think the son will for sure get a divorce.
Really?
I feel so bad for his wife.
Who were the guests?
Do you know Assemblyman Cha?
His wife and daughter came over,
and they seemed very friendly.
We're handing out stickers...
to families who are with their children.
Nam Koo.
What do you think of him?
Who do you mean?
What are you talking about?
The man who proposed to you.
I see.
He seems all right.
Well, that isn't enough.
You should love him.
You should be so in love to want to get married.
Is this how you waste your life?
Love?
I don't need love.
You said so yourself that I was born privileged.
You're right.
I've never had to work a day in my life,
so money trumps love.
Is that why you're...
settling for Shin Do Hoon?
How did you know that?
Is that really important?
Did you look into him? Is he really divorced?
Don't worry. If there were an issue with him,
my dad wouldn't have approved.
You know how thorough he is.
Are you going to marry him?
I easily could.
He doesn't care that I'm infertile, so he wouldn't divorce me for that.
Not being able to had kids isn't a crime.
Many couples do fine without them.
My dad will force me to remarry someone anyway,
so Do Hoon isn't such a bad choice.
Listen to me for once...
and check his phone.
Who are you to speak ill of him?
Besides, it's my life.
Young Hwa.
- Hand me your phone. - Why?
To see photos of your wife.
Is this necessary?
Why? Do you have something to hide?
Why aren't there any of your wife?
- I erased them. - Why?
Do you have photos...
of your ex-husband on your phone?
Of course not. That's why I asked.
Why are you doing this?
Do you hate me that much?
Let's see each other.
Sorry?
We'll see if we're compatible for marriage.
I thought we already were.
Why isn't she here?
Is she not coming today?
- Are you waiting for someone? - Gosh!
Move and let me get to work.
Show me your identification card.
You really must be petty to actually come out here for that.
Petty?
Yes, I am petty, so how me yours now.
You're being rude again.
Show me your identification card,
or I'll sue you for calumny.
I looked into what calumny is.
- It's a serious crime. - I'm glad you know.
Now show me your identification card.
Do you really have to see it?
There's not really a reason why you should.
Afraid, are we?
You barely look like you're 30,
so I hope this will teach you some manners.
(Identification Card)
You were born in 1980 which makes you 38.
You're older than I thought.
Mr. Kong.
What?
I'm sorry for everything.
Please don't sue me for calumny.
I only said that to scare you.
I'd never actually do it.
Just remember you promised.
Finally, you know your place.
All right, then.
Now get lost, so I can get to work.
- "Get lost"? - We're only a few years apart,
and it was you who was rude first.
Gosh, you really have no shame, do you?
Why did you suggest we reveal our ages then?
Oh, boy.
Move.
I'll get going, then.
Whatever.
Where are Mo Hyuk and Sook Ja?
Mo Hyuk ate earlier,
and Mom's not hungry.
I wish we could always eat like this.
The three of you are my real family.
Are you all right with me being a single father?
Is that what was implied?
If only Chun Soo were married too.
Is there a woman you find decent these days?
Mom, don't get me started.
You made me think of her and now I'm pissed again.
How dare she acts cute at that age.
Unbelievable.
Who is she kissing up to?
Try that with me again,
and I'll show her what it means to be older.
What's with the grand monologue?
Who are you talking about?
Is she from a rich family?
She's the vendor I bought sweet potato from.
A sweet potato vendor?
I've heard enough. Don't you dare associate with her.
Why is she acting cute around you?
- Are you two dating? - Shin Ae!
Are you kidding me? You know my standards.
I even once turned down a Miss Korea.
You're disgusting!
- Do you mind? - Gosh.
Now I've lost my appetite.
- Me too. - It's disgusting.
Unbelievable.
You seem lost in your thoughts.
Honey,
it's about Mo Ah.
This again?
What exactly did you see?
Do Hoon escorted a woman into his house.
A woman?
He said she's a business partner,
but who invites one to their home?
Things seemed serious between them.
What if she's really his mistress?
Don't be ridiculous.
Besides, it doesn't make any sense.
Who would bring his mistress to home?
You're right. No one is that obnoxious.
Those who cheat do it discreetly.
Are you thinking about telling Mo Ah?
Of course not. What if I'm wrong?
I'm going to talk to Do Hoon tomorrow.
Are you insane?
What if Mo Ah finds out?
Why don't you talk to Do Hoon, then?
What?
Don't be absurd.
I want you...
to go to the US for a while.
Dad.
I mean it.
I'd rather stay here.
This is for you,
so do as I say.
Do Hoon doesn't want to,
and I have no intention of forcing him.
What's your plan, then?
Do you want to divorce him too?
Of course not.
We just need some time to figure things out.
Is...
Is his mom pressuring you?
Dad, it's me who want this divorce.
Be quiet.
Mo Ah, answer me.
You won't ever be able to find Jae Min.
I'll make sure that he stays hidden from you.
Are you really willing to fight me to the end on this?
No, she didn't say anything.
Anyway, I want us to sort things out.
I heard you're off to China on business tomorrow.
That's right.
Can you take Tae Hak with you?
I'll take this time to wrap things up.
Are you sure you can get this over with?
Young Hwa's on board, so why wait?
Besides, Mo Ah's holding on because of your brother.
Once she agrees to the divorce, he'll have to let her go, too.
- Can I count on you? - Of course.
This is for the company.
I'll trust you to make it happen, then.
Jae Min...
Mom!
My puppy's home.
Look how much you've grown. Did you miss me?
I did. Where's Mom?
Jae Min.
Some might think he's been away for a few years.
Let's go upstairs and change.
I told you not to touch him.
Mom, what's wrong?
You're scaring me.
Jae Min,
how could you leave without telling me?
Grandma told me to go.
Still, you should've told me. I was worried sick.
Next time, never go anywhere without telling me.
I won't.
How very touching.
He's probably tired, so take him upstairs to bed.
Let's go.
(Request for Leave)
All right. Hi, there.
What are you typing away at?
A request for leave?
Why? Is something going on?
I want to take care of my son.
Mr. Ma might ask you for your resignation.
Didn't you work really hard to get this job?
Gosh.
If only I could join them.
I want nothing more than to go with them to China.
When will I ever get the chance to accompany the CEO?
He's going on a business trip?
- That's news to me. - Are you ill?
Sorry?
Why would anyone tell you where he's going?
That's not it.
Both the CEO and his brother are going,
so it's up to us to serve Director Shin.
He'll probably be lonely being all on his own.
We're all set to go.
Do I really need to go?
That was their request.
If you want, I can ask them to reconsider.
We already agreed to go, so don't bother.
You should join us.
Why?
Mo Ah would be more comfortable that way.
I don't bite, you know.
I'll treat her nicely, so don't worry.
Father.
At the office, you call him, "Sir".
Sir,
could you not go on this business trip?
Do you need me to stay behind?
Well...
He's not going on a vacation.
Who are you to interfere with his business?
Is there something going on that I should know about?
Of course not.
If you're that worried, you don't have to go.
Mo Ah...
Mo Ah had better be home when I get back from China.
Don't worry. I'll be back before you know it.
We'll get going, then.
Mo Ah,
we need to talk.
He's the divorce attorney I hired.
Feel free to ask him anything.
You shouldn't have come.
We're not getting a divorce.
She has no questions, so just lay it out for her.
Are you willing...
to give up the custody of your child?
No, of course not.
Then here's how it is. Your son is only six,
so his opinion won't matter in a custody battle.
You should know that...
your husband will be granted full custody.
But I'm his mom.
Doesn't it matter what I want?
Not according to the law.
Custody is always granted to the side that can provide,
and it's not like he's on bad terms with his son.
The parent's wealth is a huge factor.
How much do you have in assets?
She has about 5,000 dollars...
thanks to her bonus last month.
I'm right, aren't I?
Then it'll be easy.
Your husband will for sure be granted full custody.
But we're divorcing because of his infidelity.
That doesn't matter when it comes to providing for his child.
You heard him.
You can sue Do Hoon,
but then you'll lose Jae Min.
Quietly agree to this divorce,
and we'll give you Jae Min and a generous alimony.
What a nice office.
Let me call Mo Ah up.
Don't. I'm here to see you.
What about?
What's going on with you and that woman?
The business partner I met.
Like I said,
we're business partners.
Then you should only see her at work,
not take her to your home.
I saw you two while dropping off the dongchimi.
Anyway, it's not a good idea to invite other women home.
There are better places to talk.
I'm just worried.
I did hear that all men...
cheat at least once on their wives.
You should end things before Mo Ah finds out.
If I'm being honest, Mo Ah's way prettier.
Anyway, I trust that you understood.
My gosh.
Your aunt came by, but she's doesn't know about us yet.
Make sure she gets home safely.
Did Mo Ah tell her? Why is she suddenly here?
What a mess. I can't believe I have to deal with her temper.
She's probably here because she knows,
so it's best if I end things once and for all.
So...
Yes?
Go ahead.
Do you know about Do Hoon's infidelity?
Yes, I do. But you're mistake about something.
What do you mean I'm mistaken?
I saw his with her with my own eyes.
He's not cheating with her.
She's officially his girlfriend.
His official girlfriend?
How can that be...
when he already has a wife?
That depends on how you look at it.
Their relationship has been dead for a while now.
People meet and break up. That's how the world works.
You wouldn't say that if you knew Do Hoon.
How can I not when I'm his mom?
Have you ever washed his underwear?
Do you even know how many boxers or socks he has?
You don't.
He can't sleep with the light on...
nor can he sleep with a high pillow...
due to the injury he suffered when he was young.
He was too considerate to say anything,
and I didn't know until his swollen neck gave it away.
I asked why he didn't tell me he was hurt.
Do you know what he said?
He didn't say anything because he knew...
that I'd stop him from helping out at the restaurant.
I still choke up every time I think of that incident.
Do you need to hear more?
No, of course not. That's more than enough.
A man as sweet as that would never cheat on Mo Ah.
It's not even possible.
What can I do about it? They say they like each other.
That's why I came to talk to you.
If you make Do Hoon see his way again...
Auntie, that's enough.
There's no need for this.
Like you said, he's only cheating on me.
Did you know about this?
I'm all right. He'll come back to his senses soon.
See? What did I tell you?
Your aunt's leaving, so see her out.
When did this all start?
I'd appreciate it if you turned a blind eye.
How can I?
Unbelievable.
Would it kill that woman to actually apologize?
Whatever's going on, you tell me right now,
and I'll have it out with her.
Auntie, don't be this way. It'll only...
It'll only what?
As his parent, she should knock sense into him,
not encourage him down the rabbit hole.
You saw how she wasn't ashamed of any of this.
I was civil for Do Hoon's sake, but I've had it with her.
I'm going to talk to your father-in-law.
Auntie, please. He's away on business.
Just let me handle this myself.
Please.
I know all too well that you can't handle this on your own.
All this time, you've been going through this alone.
Auntie, please.
All right, fine.
Just promise me that you won't get a divorce.
(Play Message)
I love you!
I love you.
What was that? I didn't hear you.
I love you.
I love you!
I'm on the roof.
The air's really refreshing.
I have something to say,
but I won't force you to come.
I guess you still care.
What are you playing at?
Were you really going to commit suicide?
I was going to,
but I couldn't.
I was too angry to.
Jae Min doesn't deserve this.
Don't mention him with that filthy mouth of yours.
If it weren't for him, I would've already jumped.
Well,
I'm glad, then.
Can you live...
without your son?
I won't ever give him up.
I'd rather die than to lose him.
Are you sure you want this divorce?
Raise...
Raise him well.
Do Hoon.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry about everything.
Still, Jae Min doesn't deserve this.
Let's be a family for his sake.
Please consider him.
Not all couples stay together because they're in love.
There's more to marriage than that.
If you want, you can date Young Hwa.
I can turn a blind eye and pretend all is well.
You saw me at the house.
I'll make sure to treat her better next time.
Please.
Please rethink the divorce for our son's sake.
Mo Ah!
Just stop it.
You look pathetic.
What?
Do you hate your old life that much?
Is being a rich man's wife that important to you?
I said I'll pay you a generous alimony.
So stop being pathetic and...
Good.
That's more like it.
Now I feel less guilty.
