You pretended to love me because you had to act as a mother.
You can abandon me whenever you need to.
That's not true.
If that were true, how could I cover you...
for the hit-and-run case?
That's why you scare me.
I thought you were my mom, so I poured my heart to you.
Everything is over once you abandon me.
Listen to me carefully, Chae Rin.
I won't ever abandon you.
Unless you want to leave me.
The decision is yours.
What's up?
I've been thinking about something on my own.
I think I better ask you.
Ask away.
I saw Chae Rin crying in your arms in the parking lot.
You two looked like you were more than just colleagues.
Actually...
Chae Rin and I dated for a year when we were in college.
How...
I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner.
That was a long time ago. Since we're all colleagues,
I thought it'd make things awkward if I told you.
You don't need to explain anymore.
It's like how we didn't explain our relationship...
to the chief director and Chae Rin.
Thank you for seeing it that way.
I hope you understand.
Something bad happened to Chae Rin's family.
She came to see me because I'm the only one who knows.
I was actually taken aback when I saw you two.
I'm glad I asked you about it.
Good night.
Chae Rin, are you okay?
I'm trying to be okay.
I tried to hide it from you.
I'm sorry.
What on earth have you been doing?
Why does Chae Rin have to know about your real daughter?
It's nothing to be proud about.
Stop it, Dad. I don't want to hear it.
You can talk to me about that later.
Go upstairs.
Oh, my goodness.
Chae Rin, did I hear it right?
What do you mean a real daughter? Aren't you her daughter?
This is Mom and Dad's second marriage.
Oh, my gosh.
That means you're her stepdaughter.
I can't believe it.
Then who's her real daughter? Have you seen her?
Are you having fun?
You just filed divorce papers.
You barged into my house without even calling.
How can you say that?
I have nowhere else to go in Korea.
You could've gone to a hotel.
You can sleep in the room next door tonight.
But I want you to leave tomorrow.
I don't want to see you. Get out, now!
I'm so sorry Chae Rin found out.
It all happened too fast. I couldn't stop Gang Ja.
It breaks my heart to see Chae Rin so stressed.
Then you should've made sure she couldn't find out.
I've been trying so hard to hide it from her.
Now that Chae Rin knows,
I'll put extra care so she wouldn't get hurt.
You know how she's going though so much because of her memory.
Gosh.
I'm sorry.
- The meeting is over. - Sir.
Is it true that you're transferring to New York office?
Did you hear about it already?
Is it true then?
It was only a rumor when Ji Sook told us about it.
I'll transfer as soon as things get sorted out.
Goodness. We're gong to miss you.
How long will you be there?
- About three years. - Three years?
Are you on your way to the restaurant?
Yes.
Did you get any calls regarding the hit-and-run?
Not really.
Chief Director.
Take care of yourself in the US.
They can...
monitor your heart while you're there, right?
I'll keep eating cherries and nuts.
Don't worry about me.
You always call before you visit.
I got some information to drop off.
It's a list of people who illegally sold cars...
that were suspicious of hit-and-run accidents.
Are there any cars confirmed by illegal dealers?
I can't investigate that, so I handed it to Detective Ko.
I thought you and Ms. Eun should have a copy of it.
Thank you.
Okay. I'll make a reservation for you.
Bang Wool, how did the meeting go?
The chief director...
told everyone that he was transferring to New York.
I see. Did he say when?
No.
He just said soon.
I'll get ready for dinner time.
Hi, Chief Director.
Did Bang Wool arrive at the restaurant?
Yes, she just did.
Lawyer Lee came to my office after the meeting.
I wanted to give this to Bang Wool, but she had already left.
What is this?
It's a list of illegal dealers...
who sold cars around the time of the accident.
He's trying to find the ones on our list with illegal transactions.
Detective Ko should look into this then.
That's right.
Okay. I'll give this to Bang Wool.
Bye.
Chief Director.
Do you have time for coffee?
Sitting here like this reminds me of the past.
I heard you're transferring to a branch abroad.
Did you hear it from Bang Wool?
I wasn't sure if I should tell you this or not,
but I don't know when I'll see you again.
I might regret it when you leave.
What is it? You look so serious, it scares me.
Bang Wool...
didn't accept my proposal.
What do you mean?
I saw another ring on her finger.
She even told me that you two are dating.
That's her wedding ring with Dong Joon.
What?
After she broke up with you,
I think she put it on to close her heart to others.
Then...
why did she act like you two were dating?
Actually, she never said that.
She saw...
the couple ring on your finger at work.
She wanted you to get over her, so she stopped me from clarifying.
I didn't want you to go...
while misunderstanding Bang Wool and I.
Thank you.
However, what difference will it make...
knowing how she feels now?
Someone told me this.
The thing with people is that...
you can't force them to stay together or split them apart.
Chief Director.
One day, we'll realize when we turn back.
Where...
our fate ends.
You're saying I could find the assailant car...
if I investigate these people?
Exactly. These people are the ones who did illegal trading at the time.
This man looks familiar.
Take a look.
"Jeong Bong Soo"...
He does look familiar.
He was having a dispute with Ms. Han in the parking lot.
You helped her.
You're right. I remember now.
How did you recognize him so fast? I couldn't tell.
I saw him one more time at our office coffee shop.
I even asked Ms. Han who he was.
Who did she say he was?
She told me he was her mother's college friend.
I think she said she forgot about him because of memory loss.
- Let's go home. - Okay.
Yes, it's me.
I'm in the break room. Can we meet?
Why?
Let's talk in person.
Okay, I'll come right away.
Do you feel better now?
Did you come because you were worried about me from yesterday?
What can I do? I don't feel good about it,
but I'm trying to accept it.
She's been so good to you.
Chae Rin.
Do you remember your old car? I drove it to Daecheon.
Yes?
What was the color?
Why are you asking me that all of a sudden?
Just because.
I got curious while thinking about our past.
It wasn't a dark color for sure.
I'm not sure. What was it?
My stepmom bought it for me, so I didn't love it.
I didn't use it much.
It was still your car. You must remember it.
Was it white?
I think it was silver gray.
Yes. It was silver gray.
Was it?
Silver gray.
You don't have anything else to say, do you?
No.
I have plans. I have to go.
Okay.
Thank you for worrying about me.
I forgot to ask her about Jeong Bong Soo.
Mom, what do I do?
What is it?
Sang Cheol asked me what color my car used to be.
What did you say? You should have told him it was white.
No. I told him it was silver gray.
Why did you lie?
What if he's just testing you? He'll find out you lied.
I wasn't ready for it. It just came out of me.
I thought he wouldn't be suspicious since I showed him the necklace.
Whenever he wants to see you, it's about that. Don't you get it?
Actually, I was so upset yesterday because of you,
so I met with Sang Cheol and cried in front of him.
You saw him yesterday too?
He's the only one that knows about you and I.
That's why I thought of him.
Have you lost your mind?
Don't you see how dangerous it is to see him at a time like this?
He sincerely comforted me yesterday.
So I thought he came to see if I was okay.
It just turned out that way.
What do I do with you?
Mom.
I'm so scared.
Don't leave me.
I only have you to trust.
I really don't want to go to prison.
You'll protect me, right?
I already promised you.
Unless you let go of my hand first, I will never let go of you.
Even if your real daughter shows up,
you won't leave me, right?
You're my only daughter.
Mom.
Mom. Mom.
I thought about it,
and the plan to send Chae Rin after Woo Hyuk...
is a bad idea.
Why is that?
Woo Hyuk wanted to rush his move to the US...
because of Chae Rin, not Bang Wool.
What about Chae Rin?
I don't know exactly what he meant by saying he found out,
but he was very upset by what she had done.
If you're going to find out, find out properly.
What did he get upset about?
He would never tell me such a thing.
It was hard enough finding out that Chae Rin made him mad.
He's rushing because it's torture for him to see her...
because of the treatment.
If we let her follow him, I feel bad for Woo Hyuk.
He's running away from her, but he'll have to see her again.
Ms. Cheon, what are you doing?
Gosh.
I was just about to serve tea when you walked in.
Weren't you listening to my mother-in-law and Woo Kyung?
Don't accuse me.
I was just on my way.
Excuse me. Have some fruits and tea.
Okay.
Honey, are you home?
- I'm home, Mother. - Good.
What were you talking about? Didn't you notice her eavesdropping?
What? Hold on. What were we talking about, Mom?
About Woo Hyuk going to the US.
Right, right.
We were talking about Woo Hyuk leaving for the US.
Young Bae, have some fruits and tea.
I'll go get changed first.
Woo Kyung, come with me.
What is it?
Did you talk about me with your mother?
What are you talking about?
Then why else would Ms. Cheon jump like that to see me?
When I asked you what you were talking about, you couldn't say it.
It's because you were talking behind my back.
I really wasn't.
What could I possibly say behind your back?
A lot of things.
I have no money or a house. I'm living off your mother.
Goodness. Do you have an inferiority complex?
Nobody looks down on you because of that.
You weren't talking behind my back then?
No. Go take a shower and come down for dessert.
Wan, why are you becoming so small-minded?
Wasn't she really?
What have you been doing all day?
Why didn't you fix the buttons?
I'm sorry. I was too busy.
Leave if you won't do your job as a mom and a wife.
Don't you know this is your job?
Don't talk like that to Mom.
Chae Rin.
You know how busy she is because of me.
Go to your room. You shouldn't meddle.
I decided to forgive her past.
So you should too.
What?
She abandoned her child and you'll forgive her?
Yes. I will.
You know...
how hard she worked for us after she married you.
It would've been nice...
if she didn't have that past.
Even with her past, she's still my mom.
I don't know about you,
but I can't forgive her.
If...
If you...
divorce her because you can't forgive her,
I'll go live with her.
Wake up. You're my daughter!
Anyway, now you know how I feel.
Don't be mean to Mom.
Mom, let's go to my room.
How on earth did she get Chae Rin on her side?
(Ava Hotel)
Oh, my gosh.
What's the stench?
I won't use these blankets.
How can Chae Rin be so mean?
I let her sleep and eat at my place when we were in the US.
Gosh!
I should've gone to a nice hotel.
Why did I try to save money?
Dong Min, I miss you.
Hey. Stop it.
You've been doing that for an hour now.
Your arms are going to break.
Leave him alone.
He's upset because of the divorce papers.
Hey! Get up!
I need to clear my head. Just leave me alone.
You're an idiot.
Why don't you just beg and bring her back?
Why did you sign the divorce papers?
What am I going to say to her? Nothing's changed!
She doesn't need to have a baby.
I don't need a grandchild. You two live happily ever after.
Are you happy?
I already told her that.
But she said she was sick and tired of living with me.
What?
Ji Yeon still wanted to divorce him?
We'll need something else to get them back together.
What? Something else?
I don't know what exactly she wants,
but we'll have to offer her something amazing.
Like a new house.
Never in a million years!
I don't like her enough to do that to bring her back.
Mother.
Why aren't you in bed?
I came out to get water.
Are you upset because Ji Yeon and Dong Min signed the papers?
All I did was love my son.
But that led to their divorce.
I don't know why it came to this.
Have you talked to Ji Yeon alone?
I actually really want to,
but I don't know why I can't get myself to do it.
I don't understand.
Is it because you're afraid you can't persuade her to come back?
I think so.
You know how she doesn't listen to me.
It didn't work when your dad talked to her.
I don't know if it'll be any different if I talked to her.
I still want you to go and talk to her.
Bang Wool.
Am I a really mean mother-in-law?
No.
It's just that you and Ji Yeon aren't compatible.
I don't want to let Dong Min get a divorce because of me.
If I don't do anything, I'll regret it for the rest of my life.
Please meet with Ji Yeon for Dong Min's sake.
Hello.
Why aren't the DNA results out yet?
It'll take some time because...
there aren't enough epithelial cells from the hat.
I already told you that.
But you said you'd have the result by this time.
It's probably because it's difficult to gather enough cells from the hat.
Anyway the result isn't out yet. You'll have to wait.
Please hurry. It's urgent.
Okay.
If Eun Bang Wool is her daughter,
I won't leave her alone.
Let's try both samples at our next meeting.
Good work, Ms. Eun.
Ms. Han.
The one I saw at the coffee shop, your mother's college friend.
What about him?
Do you know him well?
Not really.
Could you ask your mother for his phone number?
Why do you need his phone number?
I need to ask him a few things.
How can I ask my mom that without giving any reason?
It's okay if it's too much trouble. Don't worry about it.
Why does she want his number?
I need to leave the country. I'm on pins and needles.
Woo Kyung.
Why did you take the flyer off?
It didn't look good and it was on there for too long.
I asked you not to take it off. Why did you?
I didn't like people asking me about it.
Also my brother-in-law said something about it.
You mean Doctor Han?
Yes. Who else could it be?
What did you tell him?
He asked me who was in the accident.
I said someone you used to like died.
Why did you tell him that?
You scared me!
My heart almost stopped. Why are you yelling?
You shouldn't tell people about that without asking me!
Gosh.
Hello.
Why is she so angry?
I don't know. She's always like that.
By the way, why are you here?
I'm here to buy you lunch.
Does my nephew want anything?
Really? What should we eat?
By the way, what's Director Na's name?
Na Young Sook. Why do you ask?
Na Young Sook?
I want to send an invitation for Company Founding Day reception.
Na Young Sook. Na Young Sook...
Why does it sound so familiar?
It's because I saw it here.
(Na Young Sook)
Is this the realtor? I'm Na Young Sook.
I need to ask for your favor.
I'm accompanying my husband to a conference abroad.
That's why I couriered the registration certificate today.
I don't think I can be there to settle the balance.
I'll leave it to you. Can you take care of it for me?
Yes. I'd really appreciate it.
It's rare for you to knock.
You told me to knock.
To be honest, it wasn't just me.
Your husband and daughter don't knock either.
Why are you here?
I don't have the energy to talk with you.
I'm indebted.
I'm curious how it went for you and your daughter too.
She was shocked,
but that won't cut the relationship between us.
Goodness.
You two are closer than a real mother and daughter.
Is that why you won't look for your real daughter?
I'm tired. You should go.
By the way, didn't you act like you'd break up with your husband?
- Why are you still with him? - What?
I thought you were preparing something.
If it works out, you promised me and your real daughter some money.
Why hasn't there been news?
Gang Ja.
You can't do housework for someone else forever.
What are you talking about?
Things have to work out for me for you to get any benefit.
Pushing me won't do any good.
Why does it feel like her car wasn't silver gray?
- Chae Rin. - Yes?
Drink this.
Hold on, it's hot. Let's cool it.
Are you okay?
I'm fine.
We better wipe it. It might stain since it's white.
I don't like anything about her.
Why did she pick white out of them all? It'll get dirty.
That's right.
It was white.
Then why did she lie to me again?
It's my father's keepsake.
He was holding onto it when he died.
It's what you gave me, right?
Who are you? Why are you bothering her?
I'll call you another time.
It was still your car. You must remember it.
Was it white?
I think it was silver gray.
Yes. It was silver gray.
Sang Cheol.
Why are you waiting here?
Chae Rin.
You lied to me, didn't you?
What? What are you talking about?
You're the culprit behind the hit-and-run accident...
of Bang Wool's father!
(Love is Drop by Drop)
If you do as I say, I'll give you double the amount.
That means they found out about you and me.
Could that be why?
Why are you upset?
That's hardly one tenth of the anger I have.
I'd rather get a divorce than live like this!
You think Chae Rin has her memory back but is acting like she doesn't?
Wake up. You can't break down now.
Should I turn myself in now?
