(Episode 69)
Ms. Eun. You're here too?
Chae Rin, come sit here.
Yes, Chairwoman.
You must know each other since you're in the same department.
Let me introduce her to you officially.
She's the one I have in mind as my daughter-in-law.
Chairwoman.
You might not know,
but her father is the director of the heart clinic...
at Hankuk University Hospital.
Chae Rin also graduated from a prestigious university.
That's why I asked her to apply for our company.
I hope for Woo Hyuk and Chae Rin to lead the company together.
Chairwoman, I don't think it's necessary to say that.
Do you see where you lack for Woo Hyuk?
Why don't we talk as we eat?
Sure.
She said she's meeting someone. I thought she was seeing you.
I came without telling her.
Try calling her.
You like this, don't you? Please have some more.
It's okay, you should eat it.
You're still not well.
You can take it.
Please excuse me.
I'm surprised you have me in mind as your daughter-in-law.
I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner.
But I had you in mind from the beginning. I still do.
I thought it was necessary to let Ms. Eun know that.
That's why I called you both here.
Thanks so much for still considering me as your daughter-in-law.
You should do whatever you can to change Woo Hyuk's mind.
It's not easy because he doesn't give me any chance.
Still, I'll try harder.
Hi, Woo Hyuk.
Where are you?
I'm at the restaurant.
What? Restaurant?
Yes.
It's really busy here because it's lunch time.
Why did you call me?
It's nothing. I'll call again later.
Okay.
Why...
is she lying to me?
Wait.
Chae Rin, are you going back to work?
Yes, ma'am.
You can ride with me then.
If you aren't stupid,
you should know why I wanted to have lunch with you.
I know I lack in many ways,
but if you give me a chance...
Don't try to buy time.
Break up with him before it gets ugly.
Mr. Kang.
I'm sorry for asking you to come here.
It's okay.
I didn't feel like eating at a restaurant anyway.
Did something happen?
How's work?
It's taking me a while to get used to this kind of work.
I'm really sorry.
All you did was follow my orders.
And you ended up here.
It's okay, Sir.
I helped you knowing this would happen.
I tried to find ways to reinstate you.
But I don't think it'll be easy to have you back as my assistant.
I see.
I haven't discussed it with Bang Wool yet,
but I'm seriously thinking about sending her to the States.
So...
what do you think about quitting work and studying abroad?
If Ms. Eun says she'll go,
I'll do that.
Thank you.
- Let's eat. - Okay.
Does this need to be here?
Displaying the employee of the year photo for a month is a custom.
Since Ms. Eun developed two new menus,
we're displaying her to promote the menus.
I don't think it's bad, ma'am.
Do I need to see this every day?
Put it away now.
Yes, ma'am.
Please put that away.
Okay.
Go back inside. You have a lot of work to do.
I want to walk you out to the lobby.
I can always stay late for work.
I didn't realize it before,
but since you got transferred, I feel a bit lonely.
You should come over with a lunch box time to time.
You seem to be doing fine.
Why are you moving this?
The chairwoman said to put it away.
Didn't you tell me to keep personal feelings separate from work?
But why are you...
blundering a business because of your personal feelings?
Then from now on,
we won't have this in the lobby officially.
You should make an official notice instead of a verbal order.
What?
Put it back where it was.
Chief Director.
Are you ignoring my order?
I will when I receive an official notice.
Put it back.
How dare he humiliate me in front of people.
Chairwoman, please calm down. Everyone is watching.
Yes.
Was it necessary to upset the chairwoman like that?
You saw her being unreasonable.
Still, you are her subordinate. You should've backed down.
Actually,
Ms. Eun, the chairwoman, and I had lunch together.
That's why she became so upset.
Why did you three have lunch?
I didn't know Ms. Eun was coming.
The chairwoman introduced me as her future daughter-in-law.
She said that to Bang Wool?
Where are you going?
I have to go talk to my mother.
That won't make things better.
The chairwoman has no choice but to pull Ms. Eun away from you.
This isn't good for you either.
Please...
give me one more chance.
Why are you doing this?
You should've helped her get back to her senses.
I thought...
I was completely over you.
But when the chairwoman said that...
my feelings for you came back.
I'll pretend I didn't hear that.
I have no time to argue with you.
Leave.
So cute.
Mom's hair is curly like ramen noodles.
Let me see.
It does.
Back then, your mom had no fashion sense.
Who could that be? Is it your grandpa?
Wait a minute...
Goodness. Who is it?
Byeol, who is it?
Ji Yeon. What's wrong?
What's wrong with her?
Hello.
I'm the owner of the beauty salon she works at.
I see. Nice to meet you.
What happened to her?
She looked like she was coming down with a cold, so I brought her here.
Thank you.
Come here, Ji Yeon.
Goodness. She looks so sick.
Is she sick?
Goodness.
Ji Yeon.
Did you go see a doctor?
Yes.
I'm sorry, ma'am.
Don't say that.
If you don't feel well, you should take a day off tomorrow.
Okay.
Get some sleep.
You don't look well.
Take a rest.
What's your name?
Eun Byeol.
How old are you?
I'm seven years old.
What's your name?
I'm Na Young Sook.
Na Young Sook? I see.
My grandma's name is Im Soon Bok.
What are all these?
This is my dad, and that's Grandpa and Mom.
It's my grandparents' pictures.
Can I look at them?
My mom's hair is curly like ramen noodles.
Byeol, can you clear the table?
Okay.
You came when it's so messy.
Move them. Here.
Have some sikhye. We made it at home.
Thank you.
I heard from Ms. Shin.
I'm acquainted with the BH Group family, so I heard about you.
Are you close with them?
Yes.
You must be upset these days.
Don't even mention it.
To be honest,
I want them to break up because I feel bad for Bang Wool.
I'm sure.
I heard she was even slapped.
Of course you'd think that way.
Did they tell you that too?
They're not doing well either. The chairwoman fell ill.
I see.
You're really amazing.
How did you decide to keep living with your daughter-in-law?
She doesn't have a family to go back to.
Does she not have parents?
Her father died in an accident,
and her mother left her when she was an infant.
She has an unfortunate fate.
I don't know who her mother is, but she's so mean.
I don't know what happened that made her leave like that,
but shouldn't she look for Bang Wool after all those years?
I'm sorry, I've gone too far.
Ma'am.
Since you know their family well,
please put in a good word for Bang Wool.
I'm not saying this because she's my daughter-in-law.
There's not a bad thing about her as far as I can see.
It's no surprise the chief director likes her.
Sure.
What is it?
Why do you keep lying to me?
What are you talking about?
You had lunch with Mom and Ms. Han. Why did you say you were here?
Did you talk back to the chairwoman again?
I didn't say anything to her.
I found out because of Ms. Han.
Why would she tell you that?
What were you thinking hiding that from me?
I could understand why the chairwoman did that in her position.
It's something for me to handle.
What will change by telling you about it?
You'd just go argue with your mother again.
I don't know what to do with my mom.
I'm glad you didn't say anything to her.
Please just act like you don't know about it.
While getting this far,
I was afraid you'd get hurt and cry a lot.
Rather, you're calm.
I'm sorry.
Bang Wool.
I don't think it's a good idea for you to be close to Mom.
I talked to Mr. Kang.
You should consider moving to the States with Mr. Kang.
I don't want to go.
I don't want to send you either.
However,
Mom will continue to bother you.
Consider it.
It could be good for Byeol.
Hey.
Why are you always leaving your shop?
When did you come?
About 30 minutes ago.
With all the mess happening around the chief director's woman,
you and your daughter must be busy.
What do you mean?
I can see you trying desperately to bring the chief director...
and your daughter together.
Watch what you say.
It's the chairwoman that's worried about Chae Rin getting blind dates.
She's the one who wants Chae Rin as her daughter-in-law.
Hey.
Do you really love that girl?
She's not your real daughter.
I never thought of it that way.
You should look into how your birth daughter is doing.
Don't waste your time taking care of someone else's child.
Don't ever come back here if you want to talk about that.
Gosh.
Why are you so sensitive?
My only daughter is Chae Rin.
If you break moral laws, you'll be punished.
You had a hard time then and you had to ran away,
but you should find her now and atone for your crime.
Gang Ja!
Hey, who knows?
Your daughter might be searching far and wide for you.
Get out if you're going to talk about this.
It's not like I said anything wrong. What's wrong with you?
I said, get out!
Fine then.
I'll leave.
You won't get to keep up with your innocent act much longer.
Whatever you're trying to hide,
I'm going to tell everyone.
Young Sook, you'll see.
Gosh.
- Hello. - Hello.
Are you leaving?
Yes.
Young Sook doesn't look very happy today.
Why is that?
I'm not sure.
She just came back and was cranky.
I waited 30 minutes to see her.
I better go.
- See you again soon. - Okay.
Why are you so serious?
Gosh.
When did you get here?
Why do you look so down?
Gang Ja told me that you're in a bad mood.
Did you see Gang Ja?
What is it? Did you two fight?
What could we ever fight about?
Ms. Shin went home sick,
and there are a lot of things to take care of.
I see.
Gang Ja said it so seriously, and it worried me.
Why would she say that to you and make you worry?
I need to dye my hair.
- I'll get prepared. - Okay.
(Rental Contract)
Sir.
I'm here.
What are you looking at?
It's the contract to rent a theater,
and also receipts of payment for the music and art directors.
My goodness.
If you rented the space, then do you have the dates for the musical?
It's two months from now.
My goodness.
I'm so nervous.
I better start praying tonight.
I thought those amulets were for the musical.
Why are you bringing that up?
Do you know how precious I've been treating them?
Anyway, how much are they?
I gave her three pieces of clothing.
You can trade things for it?
Actually, my housemaid did it.
You mean it's not done by a professional?
She learned it from somewhere.
Should I ask her for another good luck amulet?
I can't trust her.
Don't do anything.
I don't want to go broke because of it.
Okay.
Let's go out and eat.
I'll buy you beef barbecue since you signed the contract.
Let's go have some barbecue.
- Barbecue? - Yes.
That's a great idea. Let's go.
Gosh. Why is he here again?
Why are you so happy?
Don't come here if you don't have any business here.
We don't want to see you. Don't drop by.
I'm here because I do have business here.
What do you mean you have business here?
How is the show coming along?
Why do you need to know?
I need to know that since I invested in it.
What investment? I never received any money from you.
You got 20,000 dollars.
I never got 20,000 dollars from...
Wait.
Did you donate 20,000 dollars to the online funding?
Bingo!
Was it really your money?
I thought small donations wouldn't do you any good.
So I donated a lump sum.
You're crazy!
Why did you donate 20,000 dollars?
It was all because of you.
You seemed like you really wanted the show to go on stage.
I wanted to see you smile.
You're mad.
I used the money without knowing it was from you.
I'll pay it back to you.
Goodness.
Why did you say you'd pay it back?
We already used up all the money.
Do you want me to do a show with your ex-husband's money?
20,000 dollars is nothing to him.
It's not like we received it from him directly.
We got it from the online funding. We don't have to pay it back.
My pride won't allow it.
What pride? You have no such thing.
Woo Kyung! How can you say that?
Well...
What I mean is...
we don't need to pay it back.
Now I know how exactly you think of me.
To you, I'm a broke man with a big ego.
Don't put it like that.
I don't want to see you right now. Please leave.
- Give it to me. - It's okay.
You've never done this before.
You've never done this either. I can do it.
Put it down there and have a seat.
It's not easy to go see Mother and Byeol like I used to.
So I came to see you.
I'll go visit Mother soon.
I'm here to ask you to say good things about me to her.
You must be going through a lot to persuade people.
Ji Yeon. What's wrong?
Be quiet.
You don't have a fever.
Is it a cold?
Just stay down.
I think my body is aching because my heart is aching.
Is it because you can't get pregnant?
I can't believe the result.
Everything else checked out fine.
But why can't I get pregnant?
I'll get re-tested.
If you want to,
let's go to a different hospital.
Shall I look into it?
I'll ask Ms. Na...
if Dr. Han could introduce me to the best obstetrician.
Okay.
All right.
Let's do everything we can. Everything. All right?
Dong Min. Is Ji Yeon okay?
Yes.
She took medication and went to sleep.
By the way,
I know she's sick because of a cold.
But she hasn't been looking well for the past few days.
She told me...
she felt like she was coming down with a cold.
You also don't look well. You look really down.
Is there something going on that we don't know about?
There's nothing.
They're so in love. I'm sure there's nothing going on.
Dong Min.
Doesn't Ji Yeon say she feels chilly?
Why do you ask?
The symptoms of early pregnancy is like having a cold.
She's not pregnant!
- Goodness. - Gosh.
Why are you yelling at us?
You keep stressing us about it.
What stress?
You are the ones who bought the belly suit and baby shoes.
A really pretty lady came by today.
A pretty lady?
The owner of the beauty salon brought Ji Yeon home.
By the way,
I heard she knows the chief director's family.
Do you know who she is?
I don't know.
Her daughter works with you.
She's Chae Rin's mother.
Is that right?
Ji Yeon works at her beauty salon?
Everyone knew each other except us?
What a small world.
Is Bang Wool an orphan then?
Since her dad died and her mom left her when she was little.
She's not an orphan.
Her mom left her when she was young.
You don't know if she's alive or dead. Right?
I don't know all the details.
How could I ask that?
Bang Wool's mother is probably dead.
Otherwise, she would've found her.
Not all mothers are mothers.
There are a lot of women who abandon their children.
Didn't you see the news? They just dump the babies.
Maternal love is dead.
If you say it that way, I think Mom's really amazing.
I was a brat when I was young.
But you never made me feel like I had a stepmother.
There's nobody like her in Korea.
So you should be good to her.
Of course.
Don't make any excuses
- Ms. Cheon. - Yes?
Give me some mushroom onion soup.
Pardon? Mushroom onion soup?
Well...
I only made enough for breakfast. I don't have any right now.
Then make me some. I'm hungry.
Gosh. What do I do?
This is bad. I don't know how to make it.
Goodness. Miss.
Your apple can wait.
The woman the chief director is dating. What's her phone number?
Why do you need her phone number?
This is an emergency.
The chairwoman wants me to make the soup from the breakfast.
I didn't make it.
If you didn't, then who...
Did Ms. Eun make it?
Yes.
She left it in front of the gate every morning.
Goodness. Did she really make that?
Who could it be?
Hello?
I'm the chief director's housemaid.
Hello.
Why are you calling me?
Let me go straight to the point.
The soup you made.
Tell me how to make it.
Why?
The chairwoman wants to eat it right now.
But I don't know how to make it.
I see.
You must have onions. Do you have mushrooms?
Yes.
First, rinse the onions and fry them with mushrooms.
Okay, so I fry the onions and mushrooms.
I have to blend them together?
Chairwoman, try this.
What's wrong?
Does it taste bad?
It's different from what you made this morning.
Gosh.
When I cook something, sometimes it tastes good...
and sometimes it tastes not as good.
I'm not a robot. I can't make it exactly the same.
Well...
It must be because I made it in a rush.
I'll make it more delicious tomorrow morning.
Please just have it.
All right. Thank you.
Chairwoman.
You have a bad habit of stabbing people in the back.
Did you think I would thank you for this?
I heard you have high blood pressure and wanted to help.
How should I know if you cooked this...
to help me or to poison me?
(Love is Drop by Drop)
Please, I'm begging you.
The moment it's revealed, you'll be fired, but not me.
Gosh, what's going on?
When you lost the earring, you added pineapples in Bang Wool's meat.
Do you know what's in this USB?
Stop talking nonsense.
I can do worse if it's for you.
Do you know how ashamed I am to be your son right now?
Chairwoman.
