(Episode 115)
Nam Koo, it's you.
You're sipping tea while others fight for their lives.
That's just how my life is.
Don't think I stabbed you in the back though.
After all, we live in a dog-eat-dog world.
You must know that already.
Keep Mo Ah out of this.
That I'll never do. Now leave.
Again with that temper of yours.
Fine. At least one of you need to go to prison though.
Is this really necessary?
Yes, it is. I have to go this far because...
my husband's incapacitated and his company is tanking.
Now who is it going to be? You or Mo Ah?
If that's how it's going to be,
I'll go to prison.
I knew you'd say that.
In return, I want Jeon Byung Soo's shares.
His shares?
Did you honestly think that sending you to prison was my goal?
That's out of the question. He'll never give them up.
That's your problem, and I could care less.
Don't you feel sorry for what you did to Mo Ah?
I don't.
I did in the past, but I'm now more worried about myself.
I can't guarantee you anything.
Tell Mo Ah that you'll let us both go.
The clock's ticking.
The stock manipulation scandal will hit the news by next week.
Once that happens, I can't help you out of this.
Did you tell her that you're Min Joon?
I'm not Min Joon.
Okay, fine.
I'll do what I can to go to prison on my own.
I'm sure I can talk her into it.
- There's no need to. - Why not?
Don't tell me you're going to take the blame yourself.
She'll let us both go if we bring her the shares.
The shares?
No way. The old man would never agree to it.
We still should ask.
So Myung Sook wants my shares.
She'll trade that for Mo Ah's time in prison.
I'm sorry. I shouldn't have even asked.
Just forget that I said anything.
You can have them.
How can I say no to CEO Shin's son?
Take them.
Are you sure? You might not get them back.
Also, your goal was to have Ms. Hong behind bars.
I'd gladly trade her for her son.
Just think about it.
How would it feel to send your own son to prison?
It's more amusing than seeing her go to prison.
Please don't be upset about it. I'm a businessman.
What happens to you or Mo Ah is none of my concern.
You can bring my shares back once CEO Shin wakes up.
Jeon Byung Soo won't give up his shares.
All will know of the scandal will next week.
The market's been unsettling as it is.
Is there a way for me to take the blame alone?
That's up to Myung Sook.
I'll look for a way, so be patient for now.
You don't seem too well today.
I guess this could also be an option.
What are you talking about?
I'll tell her if she won't budge.
Though she's not my biggest fan, she wouldn't turn down...
a dying man's last wishes.
It's likely that she'll miscarry.
Though it's too early to tell, surgery is her best option.
At least she can save herself.
This is my answer.
You're not worthy of being a father.
Are you insane? Do you know what this is?
Do Hoon.
Are you all right?
What about our baby? Is it all right?
Be good to Young Hwa.
Without her, you have nothing.
You have Young Hwa,
so plead with her father.
Is our baby all right?
Yes, it's fine.
You're clear to go home.
I see.
I'd like to speak with the doctor before I do though.
She was here moments ago...
and now she's in surgery.
I see. We should go home then.
I'm sorry. I don't know what came over me.
I'm fine as long as the baby is.
Don't do something like that again though.
Let me see. With Jeon Byung Soo's...
and Do Hoon's shares, I could have my way.
Will Nam Koo be able to bring me the shares though?
Are you sick?
No, I'm fine.
If so, check into a hospital. Why do you keep crawling back home?
Do Hoon.
- I'd like a word. - Maybe later.
Young Hwa, let's go upstairs.
I'm fine, so talk with your mom.
When will you hand over your shares?
Why would I ever do that?
Her father can't help you, so your life ends when you go to prison.
He'd never let you stay married to her.
He only accepts you because she's pregnant.
How pathetic.
I should do whatever it takes to stay out of prison then.
Sure. I can't wait to see how you manage to do that.
What did your mom say? Is she sending you to prison?
There's nothing I can do now.
Look after our baby while I'm gone.
Do Hoon...
Your parents must be ashamed of me.
I'm a disappointment.
I'll meet with my dad and plead with him.
Please don't. I don't want to hurt his chances at presidency.
It's my duty to protect you.
My baby's father can't go to prison.
Why does my stomach hurt so badly though?
The doctor said it'll get better over time, so please rest.
All right.
Don't worry about me, and go back to work.
She'll let us both go once she has the shares.
I'll at least talk it over with the old man.
I wonder what happened.
There's no way he'll give up his shares.
Too bad. I feel bad for you.
Just worry about yourself.
I see you do have a glow.
What are you talking about?
Do you remember the fortune teller?
She said you were born to marry someone rich.
That's right. She must really be gifted.
She even knew that something was off about you.
From what she said, you were born to fail.
That's your destiny.
My destiny?
I'm thinking about turning that around.
You won't ever marry someone rich...
for Young Hwa agreed to help me out of this mess.
You two can go to prison alone.
You must've used your baby as leverage.
Fine. Do your best.
Here.
You can't give Do Hoon the will though.
We both know he'll destroy it.
That's the necklace Mother gave you.
What?
That's right.
It's not too late to tell her the truth.
I'm sure your mom will understand.
Don't worry. We're in the clear now.
(Transfer of Shares)
Mr. Il Kwang gave up his shares.
What? There's no way he'd do that.
I had my doubts, but he gave them up.
You're lying.
He'd never give them up without a reason.
How would it feel to send your own son to prison?
It's more amusing than seeing her go to prison.
I agreed to give them back once CEO Shin wakes up.
I guess he felt sorry for us.
Are you sure?
Yes, I am. Anyway, we're in the clear now.
Nam Koo, we're officially meeting Mo Ah's family today,
so join us there.
Mo Ah, we're having dinner with Nam Hui's family,
so bring Nam Koo.
My aunt wants me to bring you over for dinner.
That's great. We can go together.
Is this really necessary?
It's time we headed out.
This needs to be done.
Mo Ah's aunt has great skin, so we need the extra help.
What good would a single use of this do?
Let's go already.
It won't take that long anyway.
Did you text Nam Koo?
Yes, he'll come by with Mo Ah.
Can you leave the necklace at home though?
No.
Chun Soo's mom approved after I started wearing this.
Still, you should.
It's too valuable for you to lose.
Don't worry. I won't lose it.
All right. Mom, why don't you say a few words?
I'm good. There's nothing to say anyway.
As the elder of this family, you should say something.
If that's the case, I'd like to say this.
They're both old enough, so let's set a date.
Mother, we were just asking for a simple dinner toast.
What's wrong? Are you against the idea?
It's a good business trade on your part.
Mom, what's gotten into you now?
Marriage isn't a business trade.
That's not it. You just caught me off guard.
I want a grandchild before I pass away,
so please excuse my abruptness.
Isn't Shin Ae your grandchild? Was she adopted?
Hold on.
Will I finally learn who my real parents are?
I'm talking about a grandson.
One that'll carry on the family name.
It looks like you're saying that directly at me.
It's a good day, so just let her be.
She has a habit of ruining those.
So should we set a date?
Don't just sit there and say something.
Well...
- Hi. - Let's set a date.
There's no point in dragging it out. Right, Mom?
If that's what you think, then we should set a date.
See? A man enters and all is immediately set.
While we're at it, you should set a date too.
What if you have the wedding together?
It'll save a lot of money.
- What? - Don't you dare think of doing so.
How can in-laws of in-laws throw a wedding together?
You're being unreasonable again. Why can't it happen?
Why do you keep talking back to me today?
Mom, please. You two should stop it.
I'm terribly sorry. Normally, they're not this bad.
No, it's fine.
I like how your family is loud, noisy, and full of life.
Really?
Once Nam Hui's married, you'll live alone with Nam Koo.
May I have a cup of water?
Here.
Nam Koo...
Are you going to marry Mo Ah?
Sorry?
Well...
I know I'm in no position to ask.
You'd probably want someone who's not a divorcee.
No, that's not the case.
Does that mean you'll marry her?
I'm glad you think that way.
You know Mo Ah's story, so there's nothing to explain.
You're more than welcome in this family.
It was sweet seeing you enter our home with her today.
She normally comes home alone looking glum.
I'm truly glad that she has someone like you.
I trust that you'll be good to her.
Is it okay if I do?
Mo Ah hasn't changed at all. Don't you agree?
She was always very mature.
There aren't many photos of you though.
Stay right here. I'll bring my album.
It's Mom.
Why does Mo Ah have this?
Nam Hui, what's up?
Mo Ah, where did you get this photo?
We took this at our old neighborhood.
I must've picked it up when I left your house.
That's weird. I don't recognize this photo.
Recently, Nam Koo and I went to...
Darn it. It was supposed to be a secret.
It's okay. I know all about it.
Then I'm taking this.
We don't have any baby photos of Nam Koo.
What's wrong? Are you sick?
No, I'm coming down with a cold.
Being questioned by the police will weaken you like that.
Are you really going to send Mo Ah and Nam Koo to prison?
I'll decide when they bring me the shares.
Jeon Byung Soo will never give them up.
Besides, the company needs them right now.
Locking up Do Hoon should be enough.
What's to worry when the company has you?
I won't be around!
Why not? Are you going to the States?
No, I'm not.
Anyway, that's how it is.
So just eat properly and focus on your health.
I don't want Tae Hak to accuse me of starving you.
Does your stomach still hurt? I could make you porridge.
No, I'm good. I should force myself to eat.
I'm sorry about earlier.
Did you ask your father for help?
He gave me an earful.
What?
That's too bad. I'll call him myself and...
This is the last time.
He won't help you anymore after this incident.
Will he help me this time then?
Yes, so be a better man from this day forward.
Of course.
Thank you, Young Hwa. Thank you.
What are you grateful for?
Did her father agree to help you?
I heard you blackmailed Myung Sook with her slush fund.
I expected that from him, but not from you.
I'm sorry,
but I had to do something before my dad found out.
I have an offer for your dad myself.
If he helps Do Hoon out of this, I'll turn his life upside down.
Threats like that won't work on him.
He might send you to prison again.
That's too bad...
because I couldn't go even if I wanted to.
Anyway, tell your father this.
A slush fund is nothing...
compared to illegal funding of presidential campaigns.
You see, I gave him a gold bar.
(Transfer of Shares)
(Jeon Byung Soo to Hong Myung Soo)
How would it feel to send your own son to prison?
It's more amusing than seeing her go to prison.
Would you like me to make you a pancake?
No, I ate a lot at Mo Ah's house.
That's a lie. You barely ate a thing.
Is something troubling you?
Whatever it is, you can tell me.
Once Nam Hui's married, let's live in the countryside.
You've always wanted to.
I'd actually like that.
Would Mo Ah join us?
You live with Mo Ah,
and I'll earn some money in Seoul.
Just the two of us?
Stop talking nonsense and go to bed.
Your sister will insist that she comes too anyway.
I'm off to see Ms. Hong.
I'll come too.
What for? I'm only handing her the shares.
Don't try and stop me for I want to hear the terms myself.
He should be here by now.
I wonder if the old man gave up his shares.
Come on in.
Have a seat.
Do you have the shares?
This is for real.
Why did he give these up? I don't understand.
Ask him yourself.
He's dying to meet you anyway.
I'd rather not.
Mo Ah, you tell me.
There must be a reason why he gave these up.
We promised him that we'd get them back.
I appreciate your honesty.
Do you really think you can win these back though?
Just keep your promise...
and make sure only Do Hoon goes to prison.
Thank you. I appreciate the shares.
Anyway, stay for lunch.
Nam Hui, wake up.
The sun's already shining brightly.
Aren't you going to Chun Soo's mom today?
I don't have to now. She approves of us.
I'd rather sleep in.
Gosh, that's quite bold of you.
What's this?
Why is this here?
Do you remember the house with the blue front gate?
The three of us lived in the basement.
Nam Hui, wake up. Wake up this instant.
Why? I'm tired!
Where did you get this photo?
It's mine. Give it back.
Mo Ah found it when she lived here.
Why did you recently ask about the house with the blue front gate?
Oh, that?
I just suddenly remembered it.
Tell me the truth before I yell at you.
Fine. Just don't yell at me.
Nam Koo and I went to that house recently.
You and Nam Koo?
How did you even remember the house?
I followed him to find CEO Shin's son,
and it all came back to me.
I promised to keep it a secret, so that's all I'm saying.
I'll keep your secret too, so tell me what happened.
We went to where the son got in a car accident...
and the memories came back.
That's where Nam Koo was hurt too.
I'm sure you remember where.
It's weird though.
Why did me being at the site...
remind me of Nam Koo's accident?
I still don't get it. Do you know why that happened?
No, I don't.
I don't know why either.
I'm going back to bed now.
(Transfer of Shares)
Finally, everything's going my way as if should have days ago.
Finding Min Joon and Tae Hak's recovery are left.
Am I being too harsh though?
Nam Hui will get married soon.
With Nam Koo gone, his mom will be all alone.
I should at least give her this.
It'll provide her a living.
Who is it?
Where's your mother?
Ms. Hong, what brings you by?
I see you're home. Where's your mother?
I have something for her.
She's not here.
She isn't at the auto shop nor is she here at home.
What are you looking at?
Did Nam Koo give you that necklace?
Give it back. It's mine.
Nam Koo did give it to me, but how is this yours?
It's my son Min Joon's.
I recently gave it to Nam Koo, so hand it over.
You're wrong. This belongs to Nam Koo.
Come on. Hand it over.
If you don't, I'll have him fired!
Okay, fine. I'll give it back.
Just don't fire Nam Koo.
I can't believe I have this back as well.
This belongs to my son, so I'm taking it with me.
Good day then.
She's wrong. That belongs to Nam Koo.
The company couldn't survive even in his brief absence.
I know.
He sure is the true CEO.
You should at least massage his hands.
How would that be of any help?
Come on.
I saw everything, you know.
Why were you holding my dad's hand?
Well...
My hands were sore, so he was massaging him for me.
Is that so? Then carry on.
What?
The doctor said that it'll help with his recovery.
While you're at it, massage his legs too.
My grip is too weak now.
Yes, you should massage his legs.
Mo Ah, can you come by my office?
What's wrong? Are you ill?
No, I'm good.
Don't try manipulating the stock price again.
I was worried sick because of the scandal.
Do this again and...
Are you sure you're all right?
Go away. Don't you dare touch me.
I feel bad for your baby,
but Do Hoon must go to prison.
Your baby will at least learn about morals.
Don't worry for he won't go to prison.
Is there something wrong with your baby?
Just stay away. The baby's just kicking.
It wouldn't be kicking this early into your pregnancy.
Are you sure you're all right?
I'm good, so leave already.
Just stop going after Do Hoon.
Stop worrying about him, and go to see a doctor.
You don't look so good.
Father, I'm sorry for troubling you.
Yes.
Thank you so much. Thank you.
What now? What evil words do you have to say?
Young Hwa isn't feeling well. Take her to a doctor.
It's because of you.
She's stressed out because of your antics.
That's not true at all. You're the cause of it, not me.
Just worry about yourselves.
The scandal will blow up soon.
Go to Young Hwa. She doesn't seem well at all.
We went to where the son got in a car accident...
and the memories came back.
That's where Nam Koo was hurt too.
I'm sure you remember where.
Ms. Hong should be back by now.
There must be a photo of her son somewhere.
Where should I hide this?
I can't let Do Hoon see it.
Maybe I should blow it up now.
Ms. Kim, what on earth are you doing?
Ms. Hong, you're home. I was just cleaning.
Why would you go through my drawers though?
I wasn't. I was just tidying up.
Fine, whatever. Anyway, I went by your house.
My house?
I'm hungry.
Please fix me a meal, and I'll talk afterward.
This is unbelievable.
That necklace is Nam Koo's.
What now?
Mom will be mad that I lost it.
You know what? I'm going to get it back.
Thank you for lunch.
So what was it that you wanted to tell me?
Here. This is for you.
What's this?
I said I'd help you open a restaurant.
That'll be more than enough.
No, this isn't necessary.
I'm grateful for everything that you've done for us.
Please just take it. I'd really feel less guilty.
Why would you feel guilty?
You'll find out soon.
Someone must be here.
My gosh.
Nam Hui, what are you doing here?
Ms. Hong, I want my necklace back!
What necklace?
Nam Hui, it's you.
It's really nothing.
Since you're here, you should stay for some tea.
I want my necklace back.
It belongs to Nam Koo.
This again? That necklace is mine.
Actually, that belongs to my son Min Joon.
Nam Hui, don't be rude to Ms. Hong.
- I'm so sorry. - Give it back.
If you don't, I'll cry on the spot.
What? Unbelievable.
Okay, fine. Look at this.
I had two of these made. One for me and one for my son.
Mom, you tell her.
That's Nam Koo's necklace.
Not this again.
I already told you that Nam Koo took this from me.
All right, fine. Ms. Kim, you tell me.
Is this Nam Koo's?
Tell her. It's Nam Koo's.
Just tell me. Is this Nam Koo's?
- Mom? - Ms. Kim!
Yes, it's true.
(I Am Sorry, but I Love You)
Your mom now knows.
What if she says nothing though?
I made your life as rough as it is.
Go to Ms. Hong before it's too late.
We're moving to the countryside.
- Me, Mo Ah, and Nam Koo. - I can't go.
What will you do if you find Min Joon?
Isn't it obvious? I'll immediately bring him home.
- What is it? - Mom...
