(Episode 40)
What are you doing here?
Are you here to gloat?
I'm here to ask a question.
Who were you with when you called me...
on my wedding day?
I was with my sister. Why do you ask?
There was someone else.
Now you're really getting on my nerves.
This feels like an interrogation.
Just answer me.
Why should I?
I won't until I know why.
Who was the woman other than your sister?
We were with a waitress.
- A waitress? - Yes, a waitress.
- Should I call her over? - Where is she?
Take me to her.
Sure.
I wanted to check on her anyway.
Ma'am, where's the lady that used to work here?
Oh, her? She quit.
What? She quit?
- Why? - How should I know?
Do you know where she went?
How should I know that either?
Where did she run off to?
So would you like to look for her together?
She'll be working somewhere nearby.
No, I'm good.
Take it. It's my gift.
What's this? Is it a fountain pen?
It'll help sell your lies when you pick up girls.
It's quite expensive.
Gosh, I'm grateful.
I really wasn't expecting it.
What trash gives should go in the trash too.
Don't you agree?
Now where on earth did she go?
Jae Min found it hard to be here without his mom...
which is why I sent him there.
He's still more comfortable around his great aunt.
I hope you understand.
I thought you'd be in bed.
I couldn't sleep.
Anyway, you're back early.
I thought you'd drink all night with your friends.
I slipped out early to come home to you.
You shouldn't from now on.
I'd rather we respected each other's free time.
We'll just stick to the basics.
Should we make a list?
Sure. You go first.
Please don't ask about my ex-wife.
I already promised you I wouldn't.
Anyway, I hear you. What else?
Apart from that, you just need to be good to Jae Min.
Sure.
I don't like it when others tell me what I should or shouldn't do.
I won't wash up if I don't want to...
and go off on a vacation if that's what I want.
Isn't that a bit selfish?
I won't neglect my duties though.
I'll be a great mom and a good daughter-in-law.
I don't see Ja Ok today.
Her mom's ill, so she went back home to her.
I haven't cooked before, but I hope you enjoy it.
Look how neat everything is. It's how I like my meals.
You did great, Young Hwa. Now let's eat.
What's wrong? Does it taste weird?
Gosh.
I'm so sorry.
It's edible, although a bit salty.
From now on, you should just let the housekeeper cook.
She's right.
Have you heard from Hui Joo?
Not since she said she'd come to the wedding.
I was a fool to believe her.
You should've been stricter with her.
She doesn't listen to you, so why should she listen to me?
It's best to send someone to drag her home.
Isn't she Do Hoon's younger sister?
You still haven't seen her then.
No, not yet.
Please don't be too harsh on her.
I want to get off on the right foot.
Don't worry.
There's nobody here who she isn't annoyed with.
(Temporary workers have rights too.)
(Give us back our jobs.)
You lot.
It's not like you were unjustly fired.
Now scatter before I call the police.
Look here.
Who do you think you're thrusting your finger at?
What?
What's so wrong about asking for...
an extended contract period?
You should look out for them, not kick them to the curb.
Are you a temporary employee too?
You don't seem familiar.
Move. I have nothing to say to a nobody.
A nobody? How dare you!
Just so you know, I'm a team manager here.
I might be promoted and be on the board someday.
Isn't that right, Director?
Director?
I know it hurts, but we can't help you.
The group has its policies.
We should go, Sir.
Get rid of them immediately.
Yes, Sir.
- I wasn't done talking. - I thought you were.
So...
you feel for them here, but there's nothing you can do?
The people here...
have it too hard that their hearts are now frozen.
You should've taken care of them before they even protested.
Don't tell me that...
you're cold in here.
That would be disappointing.
Of course, I'm not.
However,
I'm not a philanthropist.
Were you always born privileged?
You were handed this job,
so why can't you extend that gratitude to them?
Shouldn't we all help each other?
After all, we're all a part of this world.
Anyway, extend the contracts of these temporary workers...
or fight me on this till the end.
The choice is yours, Director Shin.
Hold it.
- Do you know me? - Of course.
I know you quite well.
We'll meet again soon.
(Jung Mo Ah)
This is Mo Ah's.
Mo Ah signed it herself.
She forgot to take it which is why I have it.
What's with this seal?
This is Mo Ah's. Why did you bring it?
I found it in my desk drawer.
When she came home after her in-laws kicked her out,
she asked me to keep it somewhere safe.
She said that having it might make her weak.
So we had it way before she got divorced.
Yes. Why do you ask?
Hang on. Then Mo Ah couldn't have signed the divorce papers.
Right?
I need to go.
- What? - My gosh.
This means the divorce is invalid.
But didn't we hear that Mo Ah went to the courthouse?
Mo Hyuk said that she needed to sign in person.
What brings you by and why didn't you call ahead?
Since when did we meet like that?
How was your honeymoon?
It was good. Now what do you want?
You said that Mo Ah signed the divorce papers.
Yes, we met at the courthouse.
Right.
It just doesn't make sense though.
Believe what you want.
But you know very well...
that a proxy can't sign divorce papers.
I do know that...
which is why I'm confused.
Why did she sign the papers...
and then suddenly disappear?
I don't know.
But the fact remains that she signed the papers.
The fact, you say?
Can I see Mo Ah's seal?
I won't pester you about this again.
This does look like Mo Ah's seal,
and now I'm confused.
What do you think?
I honestly can't tell which one is real.
Which one is it?
One was in your drawer,
and one was in mine.
You're smart, so you tell me.
This can only mean one thing.
Mo Ah hid hers in my room...
before she disappeared.
You used a replica to sign the divorce papers.
How did you divorce her without her being present?
Now you're overreaching.
You won't be able to register your marriage.
That won't change the fact though.
Mo Ah and I are divorced.
So you'll register your marriage?
Fine. I'd like to see you try.
He must be working late today.
I should just call it a day.
There you are. Wait up!
Are you all right?
What do you mean?
You were beat up by high school kids, remember?
Of course, I'm fine.
Did you stop me to make fun of me?
No, I wanted to thank you.
Of course. I did take a hit for you.
Here. I bought this for you,
so apply it before going to bed.
This wasn't necessary. You should save up what you earn.
Did you wait here to give me this though?
Of course. I waited over an hour.
You always seem to know how to make a guy fluster.
Don't wait for me again. I'd hate for you to catch a cold.
Are you saying that because you're worried?
Of course.
If you caught a cold because of me,
I'd have to buy you medicine.
Unbelievable.
Now give me some sweet potatoes.
Don't fancy me.
My heart still aches from my first love.
Your first love?
Unbelievable.
You've mistaken my kindness for something else.
I don't fancy you at all.
I took on the boys to gain back my pride,
not to help you.
I get it. There's no need to yell.
How many sweet potatoes do you want?
Save it. I'm not buying today.
Gosh.
Don't forget the pain relief patches!
Do you like your room?
Yes, I do.
I'm registering our marriage tomorrow.
That you should. Should I accompany you?
No, I'll go with Do Hoon.
Can I ask when Jae Min will be back from his great aunt's?
You see,
Jae Min is very fond of his birth mother's family.
He's been dispirited ever since his mom took off.
It killed me to see him like that.
You're more attentive than I expected.
I'm only formidable at work.
At home, I'm just like any loving mother.
I was actually scared of you.
Likewise.
Assemblyman Cha,
who's now my in-law,
finds you intimidating, so it's obvious that I do too.
We should first bring Jae Min home.
I think you'd be the better candidate for the job.
- Am I? - Yes.
His mom's family would find me uncomfortable.
Even though I won't.
Sure.
I'll bring him home soon.
Nam Sil quit?
Yes, that's what the owner said.
Good for her.
Did her memory come back then?
I don't think so.
Anyway, she probably quit because she had a good reason.
What was that for?
- I know you told her to quit. - Why would I?
You told her to leave our house.
Go outside and find her right now.
Where would I even look?
She'll come home if she wants to.
Nam Koo, go to the auto shop.
- Why? - I left my phone there.
- Unbelievable. - Hurry.
Gosh.
Nam Sil.
(Nam Hui Auto Shop)
You're up.
When did you get here?
About two hours ago.
I'm sorry for trespassing.
- We should get going then. - Where?
Home, of course. Where else?
No, I should get going.
Then why did you come here...
and not somewhere far off?
Do you really have nowhere better to go?
I came to pay you back.
I didn't want you to report me to the police.
I don't want to take you home,
but my mom wants me to.
Can't you see this bump?
Nam Hui hit me for throwing you out.
You can tell her that I didn't.
Nam Koo's bringing Nam Sil home.
How did she end up in the auto shop though?
She was cold and needed somewhere to go.
How did she get in without a key?
You're right. That's very peculiar.
My gosh.
I brought Nam Sil.
Hi.
It's good to have you back.
Why didn't you come here instead of the auto shop?
Nam Sil, you might've been a thief in the past.
Why do you think that?
You managed to unlock the auto shop door.
It wasn't locked.
Wasn't it? But I remember locking it myself.
Nam Koo, did you leave it open on purpose?
I didn't want her to freeze to death.
Also, I didn't want her to go to Han River.
- Thanks, Nam Koo. - Save it.
Leave again and you won't ever find it unlocked again.
Nam Sil, you need a get a job.
How else would you ever pay us back?
Of course. I'll look for one tomorrow.
She can't possibly find one in a day.
You should just rest for now.
She can work at our auto shop.
No, she's caused us enough trouble as it is.
I like Nam Hui's idea.
I'll pay you and everything. What do you say?
I'd love that.
Teach me the ropes and I won't let you down.
I like your attitude. You're hired.
I second that.
Well, I don't.
I wonder if Do Hoon bought me gifts from his honeymoon.
I'm running low on shampoo.
Maybe I shouldn't have yelled at him.
Like free things too much and you'll end up bald.
Don't worry because that will never happen.
Do Hoon has to be insane...
to come over here bearing gifts.
Don't you remember what he said before?
He said he'd never forget Mom and Dad's hospitality.
He only said that because he's sorry.
- My gosh. - Hi, everyone.
Shin Ae, here you go.
I can't believe you're giving me this...
when you recently kicked me out of your office.
Shin Ae, don't be like that.
It's rude to turn down gifts.
Hurry up and take them.
Take them back with you. We don't want it.
Now why are you here?
I heard that my mom came by.
So did you come to finish what she started...
- and take Jae Min? - No.
He should stay here until Mo Ah comes home.
I think that's for the best.
Good. You made the right choice.
So why are you here?
I came to see him.
Go ahead. He's in his room.
Auntie,
I'd like to take him out to dinner.
- You can't. - Don't be like that.
We can't stop a dad from taking his son out to eat.
She's right. It's not like he's here to take him.
Won't you be back soon?
Yes, I'm just buying him dinner.
Take Shin Ae with you then.
Mom, I don't want to!
Please let me do this, Auntie.
(Petition for Invalidation of Divorce)
That won't change the fact though.
Mo Ah and I are divorced.
What brings you by at this hour?
I'm taking Jae Min out to dinner.
When did he go to bed?
Just so you know, he cried himself to sleep.
I'm sorry about earlier today.
Save it.
Do Hoon,
what's your address?
Why do you ask?
You know what, I'll figure it out myself.
- Figure what out? - It's none of your business.
You'll find out what it is soon.
- Jae Min! - You should let him sleep.
Like I said, he cried himself to sleep.
That's why I'm waking him up.
A dad by his side is better...
than a mom who abandoned him.
A mom who abandoned him?
Whatever.
I'd like to see just how long you'd be able to say that.
Jae Min, you met her before.
Say hello.
Hello.
Hi.
I'm sorry for taking so long. We should go.
I like it here, so let's eat in.
You promised to make me jjajangmyeon, remember?
Jae Min, let's eat jjajangmyeon.
One that your dad makes.
Dad, where's Mom?
I told you that she went to the US to study.
Why didn't you go with her?
I want to go to her.
Do Hoon,
don't you think this is cruel?
He should know the truth.
I think it's too early for that.
Let me do it, then.
Jae Min,
do you not like me?
No,
I think you're all right.
Really? Then I hate to say this...
because you'll hate me once I do.
Jae Min.
Your mom and dad are no longer together.
Do you know what that means?
Liar.
Jae Min, I never lie.
You now have to live with me and your dad.
Do you understand what I'm saying?
Dad, I don't want to live with her.
I'm going to live with Mom.
Jae Min.
Mom... I want my Mom.
Mom!
Jae Min, that's enough.
Let him be.
We should let him cry it out.
Young Hwa.
Wouldn't you cry too...
if a stranger suddenly became your new mom?
Mom...
I'm sorry.
It's all right. I knew it'd be a bumpy road.
I'll try and calm down Jae Min a bit.
You shouldn't worry too much.
How can I not?
For better or worse, I'm not his mom.
Should we go back and bring him home?
Let's not force it.
Wanting him to call me his mom so soon...
would be clueless of me.
(Divorce by Proxy)
I looked into it like you asked,
and divorce by proxy is easier than you think.
One guy came back from a business trip...
only to find him divorced.
People fake marriages and deaths too,
so anything is possible.
Do you think that Mo Ah is a victim too?
I'm not certain,
but I'm going to look into it.
- Don't tell anyone though. - Of course not.
What will you do if someone did pretend to be her?
There's probably nothing you can do.
Filing for a divorce is easy.
Getting it invalidated isn't.
Do you have a game plan?
I'll have to think of one.
Anyway, thank you for your help.
It'll be easy if Mo Ah were here.
She could set everything straight.
So 1 Mississippi, 2 Mississippi,
3 Mississippi, 4 Mississippi.
Here.
Is it for me?
No. Help me count.
Where did you earn this money?
I sell sweet potatoes.
Why when you can work at the auto shop?
We'll be forced to close soon.
Don't tell anyone that you know,
and keep quiet about this money.
It'll close soon? What will you do then?
It won't be the end for us.
We'll find a way to survive.
Anyway, you should live your hard too.
I will.
What do you think I did for a living?
How would I know that...
when I barely know about myself?
That reminds me. I have something for you.
This is yours.
I was keeping it safe for you.
Is this really mine?
Yes, try it on.
Rings hold special meanings for women.
Once you put it on, you might remember...
who gave it to you and why.
It's not expensive though.
Jong Dae appraised it, so I'm sure it's true.
Does it bring back any memories?
Not really.
Try saying some incantations, then.
Abracadabra!
I'll go wash up now. Give me that.
Abracadabra!
It won't be the end for us. We'll find a way to survive.
Anyway, you should live your hard too.
What's going on out here?
Look at all these cars.
Don't they know that this isn't a parking lot?
Call the owners over now. This is bad for business.
Darn.
Don't call them.
They brought them in to have work done.
When?
I came in early today, and there they were.
That one needs waxing, this one needs polishing,
and this one needs a wash.
You did well.
Maybe she's an angel in disguise sent from above.
Let's get to work, then.
I can do a good job as well.
You should just manage things in here.
He's right. It's cold anyway.
You can greet customers. That's more than enough.
No, I can do a good job.
Nam Koo can teach me.
Sure. Why don't you teach her the ropes?
She's here anyway.
Mom, this work requires expertise.
It's not something you learn in a day.
I might end up messing up like I did last time.
Do I look like that easy to you? Why do you never listen?
Just teach me already. I'll call you my mentor.
I didn't ask for an apprentice like you.
Master!
What's with that smile?
Again.
Nam Koo.
She must've been gold-digger.
How dare you say that? Now just teach her a few things.
Darn.
Here you go.
Here.
- Here. - Thanks.
But who are you?
Let's just say we're on the same side.
- Hang in there. - Sure.
Unbelievable.
The CEO's on his way, so clear out already.
- Darn. - Look here, Mister.
Mister? I thought you said that I was trash.
Here you go.
Shouldn't we all get to live anyway?
I should take this up with the CEO.
Don't you dare. You'll get me fired.
Gosh, he's here.
Don't tell him I was here.
Who are these people?
No one important. We should go.
They should be your concern.
That's it. Now you've gone too far.
Why don't you both eat this snack...
and extend these people's contracts.
You should take it before things get messy.
Isn't hanging out with bossy guys...
boring?
Do Hoon.
Renew their contracts like I asked.
Did you have to stir things up the moment you got here?
Hui Joo, that decision should be made by human resources.
Did they voluntarily hand your son a spot...
on the board too?
That's enough.
Aren't you at least happy to see him?
Of course, I am. I'm almost in tears.
You don't seem that way.
The feeling is momentary...
when this is their lives hanging in the balance.
Can't you see...
that you upset your brother?
Are you really?
No, I'm good.
See? He's fine.
Gosh.
Do Hoon.
You seem gaunt than in your photo.
- Are you stressed out over work? - What?
Of course not.
It must be because of Ms. Hong then.
No, she's been great.
Then are you not happy to see me?
- I am. - You don't seem that way though.
You could've at least cried.
I heard you did when you met Mom.
Cry for me or I won't talk to you again.
Maybe later.
You promised.
I'm really going to be angry if you don't.
Do Hoon, I really missed you.
I hope you don't hate me, even though I'm a handful.
I love you.
I almost forgot. Congratulations on your wedding.
Don't tell Mom or your wife that I'm back yet.
See you.
You were gone long.
You see, Hui Joo...
It's nothing. What did you come by for?
If you're not busy, I'd like to go somewhere.
- Where? - The borough office.
We should register our marriage.
You won't be able to...
register your marriage.
You seem alarmed.
Don't tell me that you want to hold off on registering.
No, of course not.
- We should go. - I can do it by myself.
All I need is your seal and identification card.
We're talking about our marriage registration.
I wouldn't miss it for the world.
(Mo Hyuk)
What do you want?
Right now?
Okay.
I'm sorry, but I have to meet with someone.
That's too bad. We'll go some other time.
No.
It won't take long, so wait for me downstairs.
Sure.
I'm sorry.
What a jerk. He didn't even say thanks.
Unbelievable.
It's your wedding gift.
Open it. I'm sure you'll like it.
(Petition for Invalidation of Divorce)
A petition?
I told you that you won't be...
able to register your marriage.
What do you think you're doing?
Your divorce was barely finalized.
Don't you think it's too soon?
I'll see you in court.
I'm going to make sure...
that this divorce is invalidated.
(I Am Sorry, but I Love You)
What if we reported Mo Ah's death?
What?
I met Mo Ah. I'm meeting her in court tomorrow.
- Who is it? - It's Do Hoon's wife.
