Congratulations, Mr. Jung.
No, he's the new chairperson now.
Congratulations again, Chairman Jung.
Thank you all. I hope I do not cause trouble to your reputations.
Of course not.
I'm sure you will do well.
You will do well.
Please support me. I will do my best.
Don't worry. We'll get going now.
Yes, good bye.
Mr. Kim. Unfortunately, this is how things played out.
Don't be too disappointed.
I will have to step out once Madam Cho returns.
Until then, I will take her place...
manage Chungil Foundation.
Do you mean what you just said?
Of course. I hope everything works out...
and she returns soon.
Please excuse me.
Mr. Kim.
Mr. Kim, hello.
We need to talk.
Mr. Kim, what in the world happened?
I'm sorry.
I had doubts about others, but I trusted you.
You told me yesterday not to worry.
I'm so sorry to you and Madam Cho.
But I had no choice.
What do you mean?
I'm a businessman. To save my company,
I had no other choice.
What are you talking about? Save the company?
What's wrong? Is there something I don't know?
It's... To be honest, Mr. Jung...
Mr. Jung? Mr. Jung told you to do that?
Just say it.
Did Mr. Jung threaten you?
Goodness.
You did very well.
It was nothing. Anyway, congratulations once again.
Yes. Chungil Foundation is now in our hands.
Is the next plan to sell it off?
Yes.
Mr. Jung.
Mr. Kim, what are you doing here out of the blue?
What in the world do you want?
I know that you're behind everything that happened with grandmother.
What are you talking about?
I heard everything from Mr. Kim.
You falsely accused Grandmother.
You approached her four years ago and have been lying to her.
Was it all a show to take away our Chungil Foundation?
Mr. Kim, what are you saying?
I understand that the situation is difficult,
but that doesn't mean you can say anything.
I don't know what you and Mr. Choi are trying to do with Chungil,
but I will never let you have it your way.
It was you who embezzled the donations for the orphanage.
I will make sure the truth gets out.
And Mr. Jung, I'll make sure you regret this.
Well, things have become complicated.
Would it be okay to let him be?
Don't worry. He can't get anything out of yelling now.
We can just push forward with our plans.
Okay. I trust you took care of the newspaper companies.
Yes. Articles of Madam Cho will sweep the papers today.
Everything will work in our favor.
There are 16 bags of flour.
My gosh, there's really no one you can trust.
Why? What's going on?
It's about Chungil Foundation.
Apparently, the chairperson embezzled donations for children.
What? Let me see.
What? What in the world is this?
She's known to be kind and I really believed it.
Who knew she'd exploit little children for her own greed?
No, this can't be possible.
Is this real?
Of course it's real. It's in the papers.
My gosh.
There's really nothing scarier than people in this world.
You never know.
No, that chairperson isn't someone who'd do such a thing.
This can't be.
You're really worried, aren't you?
Gosh, what is all this?
Do you think Madam Cho really did it?
No, she would never.
I'm sure something's wrong.
Right? That means she's being framed.
Who would do such a thing?
The truth will come out if they investigate.
I hope she stays well until this is solved.
I hope her health keeps up.
I'm worried about that too.
She's quite old, and her heart isn't well.
I hope she gets through this without much trouble.
This is bad.
Shouldn't you visit her?
Madam Cho is implicated in all this,
but I'm worried about Mr. Kim too.
Wait, so now you're the new chairperson of Chungil Foundation?
Yes. The situation called that I take the position.
Oh my gosh. Congratulations, dear!
Congratulations dad.
Chairperson of Chungil Foundation, that's amazing.
Yes, thank you.
Then what happens to Madam Cho?
Of course, congratulations.
But I'm just worried about her.
She's currently under investigation for embezzlement.
So she's locked up in jail?
No, due to her old age, she won't be detained.
Really? She's not the type of person to do such a thing.
I wonder how that happened.
Look at you. You never know with people.
The papers say there's plenty of evidence.
Where there's smoke, there's fire.
How could you become so cold all of a sudden?
What?
Madam Cho helped me get free when I was arrested for espionage.
She's such a generous person.
It's strange that something like this is happening.
That's why she's a scarier person.
It only takes a second for money to take over someone.
I wish Seol Hee's brother could use his influence right now.
That would be so nice.
What are you talking about? Who's her brother?
I only found out about this recently.
Seol Hee's brother passed the bar exam.
And now, he's at the Judicial Research and Training Institute.
What? Really?
Of course.
Seol Hee's brother is quite brilliant.
Passing the bar exam itself is amazing.
But he placed first in the exams at that institute,
where the country's top brains are.
My gosh, I can't believe Mr. Jung did that.
I never even dreamed of it.
I trusted him too much.
That's how it led to this.
Don't think that, Grandmother.
Mr. Jung came into this with a plan from the very beginning.
How could you have stopped it?
No.
It's my fault I caused this.
I shouldn't have left everything to him and trusted him so.
I should have held my own.
Mr. Jung is now chairperson.
I don't know what he has up his sleeves now.
I won't let him get his way.
Do you have a plan?
First, I'll get to the bottom of this embezzlement case.
I have to prove this is all Mr. Jung's doing.
Then you and Chungil will be fine.
So don't worry too much, Grandmother.
Mr. Jung, that wicked man!
It wouldn't have come to this if only I'd found out a little earlier.
Father, please help me from up there...
so that I can protect the Chungil you built.
(Chungil Flour)
You should rest more. Why did you come out so soon?
I have to keep my place in times like this.
Don't worry. I'm okay.
I said don't worry.
I feel better being at the office than at home.
All right. Then please look over the office for today.
I'll go meet the directors of orphanage who gave false statements.
Okay.
Mr. Kim, we're in trouble.
What's going on now?
There's a boycott against Chungil products right now.
What do you mean boycott?
There was an article about our company yesterday.
Our clients have been calling to call off the deals.
Call off the deals?
But there's worse.
People are issuing bills at us right now.
Bills? What do you mean bill?
Grandmother!
Madam Cho!
- Grandmother. - Madam Cho.
Are you okay?
Is she okay?
I've treated her for now, so let's wait until she wakes up.
And we'll have to run more tests after she wakes up...
to see how her heart is doing.
Okay.
Please excuse me.
Mr. Kim.
Soo In, how did you find out?
I heard from Tae Soo.
Is Madam Cho okay?
They took emergency measures, but she's not waking up.
We'll have to wait to know.
I see. I'll stay here. You can go back to the office.
Will you, please?
Please take good care of her.
Okay. Don't worry about us.
We have to stop the bills for now.
How much cash do we have?
With the cash we have now, we can only cover a portion of the bills.
My gosh. I see.
Then sell all the properties under my grandmother's and my name.
And cash them out.
Okay. First, I'll look into the loans we can get...
with the properties as mortgage.
It won't be easy to get bank loans in this situation.
Get as much cash as you can, even if you have to resort to price loans.
We have to do everything we can to stop this.
Okay.
Yes, Mr. Kwak. This is Kim Seon Woo from Chungil Flour.
I'm calling because of the bill.
Hello? Mr. Kwak? Mr. Kwak!
Yes, this is Taesan Noodles.
Yes, Mr. Nam.
I'm calling about Ms. Oh's brother you mentioned.
He really did pass the bar exam,
and he's in the Judicial Institute.
I see.
And his grades are very good.
He will easily become a judge or prosecutor.
I see. Good work.
Yes.
You called me?
- Man Pyo. - Yes.
Do you like that woman that much?
Seol Hee?
Of course. I'll never meet anyone like her.
So you will marry her?
Yes. Even if someone points a knife at my neck,
my feelings won't change.
So if you are about to tell me to break up...
Marry her.
Sorry?
What can I do when you like her that much?
Marry her.
Really?
You approve of our marriage?
I said yes. But have her quit the cafe.
Don't worry about that!
Thank you so much. Thank you.
All right. Why don't you take off now?
Okay.
Ms. Oh!
Oh, hello.
You'll faint if you run like that.
Did something good happen? Did you find money or something?
No. Something better happened.
My brother-in-law approved our marriage.
Really? Did he really give you permission?
Yes. He really gave us permission.
Mr. Hong.
But he said if we want to get married,
you'd have to quit working here. I said you would. Is that okay?
You did good. We were thinking of opening another business anyway.
But how did you change his mind?
I don't know. But I think it's because...
he saw how much we loved each other.
Really? Oh, my gosh.
So we can really get married now?
Yes. Ms. Oh, we'll be husband and wife now.
I know how hard it was for you.
Thank you for trusting me and waiting.
Let's just be happy.
A bag of flour please.
Flour?
Just a moment.
Here you go.
Don't you have anything else?
Sorry? I don't have anything else.
Chungil Flour has the best quality.
I see.
But the chairperson there is a scum.
I can't buy flour from them.
I'll come again if you don't have anything else.
Ma'am, wait. Ma'am!
I had so many customers today saying that.
Hello, it's me.
Yes, hello.
What's wrong? Is something up?
My customers don't want to buy Chungil Flour.
They leave without buying.
It's good quality so I bought a lot. I have a lot in stock. I'm worried.
Oh, no. What will you do?
We'll have to bring in other brand flours to keep customers coming.
Oh, right. How is your factory doing?
You use Chungil Flour too.
Yes, but the CEO hasn't said anything yet.
So we're still using Chungil Flour.
You guys might have to change flour too.
What if people boycott Taesan Noodles?
I'm worried about it too, but they can't just cut off deals overnight.
That's my problem too.
If I had no associations with Chungil Flour, I'd cut off the deal.
But my wife's mother-in-law is the chairperson.
I can't just cut off the deal. I don't know what to do.
That's what.
Goodness.
Soo In.
How is Madam Cho doing? Is she okay?
She hasn't woken up yet.
She hasn't?
Oh, no. What do we do?
I'm going to go see the doctor,
so you should go inside.
Soo In.
Before you go, I have something to say.
To be honest, I was so worried how things were going.
So I just stopped by Chungil Flour and met Mr. Jang.
And?
He said something so strange.
I still can't believe it.
What did you hear?
I heard that Madam Cho went to the station...
because of Mr. Jung.
Sorry? Because of Mr. Jung Jae Man?
Yes. Apparently Mr. Jung framed Madam Cho for embezzlement.
What I can't understand more is...
Mr. Choi worked under him and helped out on it.
I don't know what this all means.
Are you serious?
Mr. Jang really said that?
Yes. Do you think he misunderstood something?
Both of them would never do such a thing.
I'm sorry, but please take care of Madam Cho for me.
I have to go somewhere.
Are you and Mr. Jung really behind...
what's going on with Chungil right now?
You wanted to see me to ask that?
Just answer me.
Did you really plan all this? Did you?
What if I say yes?
What in the world is your reason?
Mr. Jung is greedy. I can see that.
But you're not that type of person.
That type of person?
Yoon Soo In. You're the one who made me like this.
What do you mean?
I said I'll never forgive you and Kim Seon Woo...
for what happened to Ji Hoon.
Jeong Wook, I told you it was a misunderstanding.
If you need to blame someone, blame me.
As you said, it was my fault. Mr. Kim had nothing to do with it.
Don't waste your time and go.
Nothing will change by you doing this.
Jeong Wook, please don't do this. I'm pleading.
Don't get on my nerves.
If you keep acting this way, I don't know how far I'll go.
Mother, are you feeling okay?
What are you doing here?
I heard from Soo In that you fell ill.
What if Seon Woo sees you here?
Get out now.
Mother.
I said get out right now!
Thank you for coming.
Yes.
Grandmother, are you okay? Are you comfortable?
Well,
Soo In called her and she came because she was worried.
She's on her way out.
Yes. I'll get going then.
Soo In will be back soon.
Can you stay until Soo In gets back?
Please.
Grandmother, I'd feel better if she stays here.
Then, I'll go get some water.
How is the company doing?
We gathered as much cash as possible to cover urgent bills.
That couldn't have been enough.
No, so we sold our properties and small factories.
No, don't tell me.
Did you sell Seonil Sewers too?
Yes.
You can't.
That was the first sewing factory your father built.
I'm sorry. I had no choice.
I see. It's all my fault.
I trusted Mr. Jung too much.
Now Chungil Flour is in risk.
And we lost Seonil too. Your father worked so hard for it.
That's not true. Don't say that.
Mr. Kim.
Soo In, did you go somewhere?
Yes.
Mr. Kim,
I have something to say.
To be honest, I went to Incheon and met Mr. Choi.
Mr. Choi?
Yes. I don't know where I should begin.
To be honest, Ji Hoon's living biological dad is...
I already know.
He was at the hospital that day.
I knew when he started sobbing.
He's Ji Hoon's biological father.
I see.
But why did you meet him today?
I heard he and Taesan Noodle's Mr. Jung are...
involved in what's going on right now.
I wanted to see what was going on and stop him.
It's my fault that Chungil is in huge risk.
What do you mean it's your fault?
He has something all wrong.
He thinks Ji Hoon died because of you and me.
So he wants revenge against you.
Is that what Mr. Choi said?
Yes. I'm so sorry.
But what do we do?
It's just an excuse when he says it's your fault.
An excuse?
Mr. Choi and Mr. Jung both approached Chungil Flour...
with the intention to bring us down.
You said when you were pregnant with Ji Hoon,
he was engaged to another woman, right?
And his fiancee is Taesan Noodle's Mr. Jung's daughter.
He can throw away love for his ambition.
And because of that ambition, he's taking us down with Mr. Jung.
So there's no need for you to feel bad.
Then what do we do now?
Mr. Jung is a scary man.
It won't be easy to stop them.
No. I won't ever lose.
I'll do whatever I can to protect Chungil, so don't you worry.
Yes. How are things at Chungil?
Madam Cho is in the hospital...
and Mr. Kim is busy covering bills.
Of course they are.
He sold all their personal properties...
to cover their bills.
They can't really do anything now.
Chungil will fall.
They're in their final movements.
I'll bring up selling off Chungil Flour at the board meeting tomorrow.
Yes. I'll see if anyone is interested in acquiring it.
Okay. Go search.
Okay.
(Chungil Flour)
I'm sure you all know, but I gathered today's meeting...
to hear your thoughts on selling off Chungil Flour.
Selling off Chungil Flour?
This is ridiculous. How could you bring it up?
Mr. Kim.
It's not that we don't understand,
but Chungil Flour's fate is on the line.
Us board members have no choice but to be cautious.
He's right. The situation has never been this bad.
Right now, it's the best to sell off Chungil Flour for the foundation.
My grandmother never embezzled money.
Once the investigation starts, the truth will come out.
And Chungil Flour will go back on its feet.
Please wait a little longer.
If we don't sell off Chungil Flour right now,
we won't be able to pay back the bills and go bankrupt.
You must know that if that happens, there will be nothing we can do.
My grandmother found Chungil Foundation, where you all...
are sitting here as board members.
Without Chungil Flour, Chungil Foundation wouldn't have existed.
So please, think again.
If Chungil Flour's value plummets down and we can't get a good price,
then Chungil Foundation will fall along with it.
Everyone, please think carefully.
So what will happen to Chungil Flour?
We decided to sell it off.
Good work.
And I found the right person to acquire Chungil Flour.
Did you? Do you know who it is?
Yes, his name is Kang Myung Han. He's Korean-Japanese.
He settled in Japan during the war.
He's quite famous there for being a good businessman.
Why would he acquire Chungil Flour in Korea then?
He has a son. I think he wants to come back home with his son.
So he's been looking for a good business opportunity in Korea.
He heard about Chungil Flour just in time, and plans to acquire it.
Really? So when should I meet him?
There's no need to stall time. I think you should meet him today.
If you're free in the afternoon, I'll arrange a meeting right now.
Okay, let's do it.
All right.
They're selling off Chungil Flour?
Yes.
I don't know how to tell Madam Cho about this.
We sold all the factories and houses to cover the bills.
We still failed to protect Chungil Flour.
It was all in vain.
Then she lost all their fortune?
Yes. We poured everything she and Mr. Kim had...
to protect Chungil Flour.
So they both have nothing now.
My goodness. How could this be?
I know there's no use saying this now.
If I hadn't lost that bag in that battle field...
if only I had that money right now,
I'd be able to help Mother and my Seon Woo.
Please don't say that.
I found out that Mr. Kang has huge connections in politics here.
It's because he did business both in Japan and Korea.
Yes. He'll be a helpful acquaintance.
Welcome, we were waiting.
I'm Jung Jae Man, the Chairperson of Chungil Foundation.
Hello. I'm Kang Myung Han.
If we close the sale deal well, half of the money...
- will go to you. - Yes.
Is there really no way to stop it?
Recently, the Director of Haneul Orphanage saw...
a sharp increase in his fortune.
Who are you?
I'm Kim Seon Woo, the CEO of Chungil Flour.
Do you have any evidence I did something?
I'm sure Madam Cho would never embezzle public money.
That's why I'm telling you this.
I have bad news. Mr. Kim met Haneul Orphanage's Home Director privately.
Do you have any evidence to back up what you just said?
