Jeong Wook. Wait for me.
Jeong Wook.
(Episode 23)
What's wrong?
I sprained my ankle.
Are you okay? Does it hurt a lot?
It's your fault for walking on ahead.
It hurts.
Don't just stand there. Help me up.
I need to sit down.
I think we should go.
That looks tasty. Buy me some.
- Se Young. - I'd get it myself,
but I'm hurt.
Wait here.
Sit.
Thanks for coming with me.
I'd always wanted to come along.
Why?
I knew you always came here on Min Jae's death anniversary.
Did you?
Yes.
I wanted to come here...
and beg to Min Jae.
What do you mean "beg"?
To say I'm sorry.
That it was my fault.
Don't say that.
Soo In.
It's not your fault he's dead.
Why do you think it is? You shouldn't.
I had fun today. See you tomorrow.
Are you saying something happened that night?
Now tell me exactly what happened that night.
That day...
we spent the night together.
Then...
Do you mean that night, the two of us...
Do you think feigning ignorance...
will make it go away?
Se Young.
That night, you and I...
spent the night together, and as soon as the curfew lifted,
I went home, made the soup, and brought you some.
That is the truth.
Do you get it now?
- Mom. - Soon Ok.
Welcome home.
Why are you together? Did you meet nearby?
Actually, Soo In came to the temple with me.
Did she?
Yes.
I see.
Did you two eat dinner?
We ate something on the way back. Have you eaten?
Of course I did. It's late.
You must be tired. Go and rest.
You too, Soo In.
Okay.
- Goodnight. - Sleep well.
Goodnight, Soon Ok.
Soo In, can we go to the seaside?
I said no.
I want to play by the sea.
Can we please go?
I want to fly a kite.
I will hurry home and get it. Wait for me here.
Don't go anywhere else. You have to wait here, okay?
Okay, Soo In. I will wait right here.
Be quick. Hurry back.
- Min Jae. - Save me, Soo In.
Min Jae.
Soo In.
Min Jae! Min Jae!
Soo In.
- Soo In. - Min Jae. Min Jae.
Soo In. Save me!
Min Jae.
Soo In had replayed that incident in her head thousands of times.
Today, she thinks of it again.
If she hadn't taken Min Jae to the seaside.
If she hadn't left Min Jae to get the kite.
If she had returned with the kite a little bit sooner.
Then Min Jae would not have died.
The tragedy she cannot overturn...
breaks Soo In's heart all over again.
Min Jae.
I am sorry.
I am so sorry.
Something urgent came up at work yesterday and we couldn't go.
What a pity. Soo In must have been so upset.
It's your birthday this Sunday.
I'll come and see you.
Okay. All your siblings will be at home.
Bring Soo In with you.
Why won't you answer? Does she have plans?
No. The thing is...
I'll call you back, Mom. Bye.
What was that about?
What? It's nothing, really.
- Good morning, sir. - Good morning.
Hello.
It still looks like he's in a bad mood.
- What could be wrong? - I don't know.
The change of use application for Wolmido's land...
might not be passed.
I'm here to ask about Wolmido's...
change of land use application.
I heard that it might be disapproved.
I said it was in the final stages. I never said it was a done deal.
Thanks for telling me.
Oh, really? What great timing.
Okay, talk to you soon.
Who was that?
Nobody.
Mom, I might come home late tonight.
Are you going somewhere? You don't have class.
I have to go somewhere.
Ms. Oh.
Where were you?
Dae Bong, do I look different?
You?
I can't tell.
Men are so clueless.
I had my hair done.
Oh, now I see it. Your hair looks different.
How is it? Do I look pretty?
Yes, you do.
I like hearing that I'm pretty more than anything.
Dae Bong.
There's flour on your cheek.
You can't look like this out in public.
There you go.
See you at home after work. Bye.
Bye.
What's wrong with me?
Is this not it?
I think this is it.
Excuse me. Is this where Choi Jeong Wook's mother lives?
Yes. I am Jeong Wook's mother.
I came to the right place. Nice to meet you, ma'am.
Who are you?
I'm Jung Se Young. My father owns the factory Jeong Wook works at.
You're the CEO's daughter?
You must be the person Jeong Hee talked about.
Yes, I am.
I heard it's your birthday this Sunday.
I brought something for you and for the others.
You really didn't have to.
Thank you for being so nice to my daughter last time.
But why would the CEO's daughter come to see me?
To say hello and wish you a happy birthday.
Why would you wish to see me?
Mr. Choi and I. We like each other.
That can't be.
Jeong Wook's seeing a lady called Soo In.
She's a clerk at your factory.
I know.
Jeong Hee said you are friends with Soo In.
Are you saying Jeong Wook likes you too?
I think you should ask Mr. Choi for the details.
What do you mean?
I don't think I can tell you.
I will come and see you again.
I'm home.
You must be Mr. Choi's youngest sister.
Who are you?
You'll find out in due time. See you again.
Ma'am, I'll leave you, then.
Mom, who was that?
I'll take it.
Taesan Noodles.
Mom.
Is something wrong?
A young lady who said she's the daughter of your CEO...
came to see me.
What?
She said you like each other.
What does that mean?
Mom, that's...
I'll explain later.
Yes. I'll call you back.
Is something the matter?
No, it's nothing.
Mr. Bang. Have you heard from the man yet?
You only just gave him the job and you're asking already?
You said he's an expert that doesn't need long.
Shouldn't we give some interest to the person...
who lent me the money?
It's fine. He knows the situation you're in.
He doesn't want any interest. Pay back when you can.
Can I do that? What a nice person he must be.
Isn't it time to marry off your older daughter?
Why? Is there an eligible young man?
The person who lent you the money likes your older daughter.
What? How would he know her?
He saw her with you in town.
He's a very rich man and has a great personality.
Does he? Then why would he go for Soo In?
See, he was married once before and...
he's on the older side.
How old is he?
- He's 41. - What?
Don't you know how old Soo In is?
Consider the proposal for a minute.
No thanks. That's just nonsense.
(Admission)
Why are you out here, Auntie?
I came out for some fresh air.
I see. Goodnight, then.
Soo In. Is Dae Bong still at work?
I'm not sure. I wouldn't know. Why?
I was wondering why you're home and he isn't.
- Go on inside. - Bye.
Why is he so late?
What are you doing here?
You scared me.
Why are you coming from that direction?
I dropped by the watch store after work.
Were you waiting for you?
Why would I be waiting for you?
Dae Bong.
What?
Do you want to watch a movie this Sunday?
A movie?
Us two?
I don't really want to watch a movie with you,
but I got two free tickets and I can't waste one by going alone,
and the others have plans, so I'm asking you.
I'd love to watch a movie for free.
Would you?
Then see you on Sunday outside the theater at 11am.
Sure.
My goodness.
(Incheon Bus Terminus)
Where are you coming from?
Aren't you here because you know already?
What gives you the right to visit someone else's home?
It's your home, not someone else's.
Se Young.
I went to wish Mother a happy birthday.
Is that wrong? Why can't I do something like that?
"Mother"? She isn't your mother.
She's your mother, so she's mine as well.
How did you know about her birthday?
And where she lives?
I can find out whatever I want if only I tried.
Are you really sure something happened between us that night?
I said yes.
Then why are you bringing it up now instead of back then?
You could have used that to blackmail me without...
going through all that trouble, so why didn't you say so then?
Do you think it's easy for a woman to mention something like that?
Do you think I have no pride...
because I keep throwing myself at you?
I didn't want to use this to hold you back.
However hard I try, you just won't care for me.
I had to tell you.
Don't you see how I had no other choice?
Where were you all day when you had no class?
I had to go somewhere.
Did you have a good day?
Not particularly. Can you go out so I can change?
You can change in front of me.
What happened? Why are you so happy?
I'll tell you some other time.
Fine.
He'll have no choice now.
You've been coming home late these days.
Were you with her?
- Who? - You know.
The lady who brought you home when you were drunk.
Aren't you two dating?
We aren't. I just know her from work.
Is that it? I was wrong, then.
You can't let her keep coming over if you aren't dating.
People will talk.
Right.
That night too. I was so afraid...
she'd end up having to stay because of the curfew.
It's a relief that she left before the siren.
Did she leave before the siren?
Yes. She carried you inside and came right back out.
Don't you remember?
Then was that all a lie?
My goodness.
Do you have business at our house?
Is Se Young in? Could you call her for me?
She left to class.
Why would you want to talk to her?
It's nothing. Thank you.
- Good morning. - Hi.
You're in a good mood.
Not particularly.
It's my mom's birthday this Sunday...
and my siblings will be there. Come with me.
Me too?
Of course. My mom told me to bring you.
Do you feel uncomfortable?
Or is it about Jeong Shik?
Don't worry. I talked some sense into him.
He won't be rude again.
If you're still worried, I'll talk to him again this week.
Will you come with me?
Okay. I will.
This is Jung Jae Man.
I'd like to meet the congressman.
He is busy. Call back again...
Are you a parrot? You just repeat...
This is really important. I won't be there long.
Tell the congressman I just need five minutes.
Sit.
Thank you.
What is so important?
I don't have much time, so keep it short.
Help my application for the change of use of Wolmido...
go through.
Isn't that an old topic?
I told you already that it will be too difficult.
That's why I need your help.
Make it happen.
It must happen.
Mr. Jung, why are you like this? If you won't stop...
Because...
now that land belongs to you, sir.
What do you mean?
I will transfer the deed of all the Wolmido land I own...
so it becomes yours.
Mr. Jung.
Jeong Shik.
- Hi. - Hello.
Are the jackets done already?
We worked overtime.
You must be tired. Jeong Wook's in the office.
See you.
Jeong Shik.
What is it?
Well...
Never mind. Go on inside.
Why are you here?
I'm here to deliver the uniforms.
Where can I put them?
Leave them here. I'll sort through them.
It's almost lunchtime. Let's chat over tea.
I'll go to the bank, then.
Soo In.
Are you here to see your mom?
She went grocery shopping with Dal Ja.
I'm not here to see her. I'm here for lunch.
Are you? I'll get you some soup.
Here you go.
Thank you.
Eat all you want.
Remember what you said to me in the kitchen last time?
In the kitchen?
Oh, about you and Mr. Choi?
Why did you ask about us?
I was curious, that's all.
Actually, I saw you together on the way home,
walking side-by-side.
Did you?
You two looked lovely together.
Since you already know,
can you keep it from the others...
until he comes to say hello?
Why should I?
Mom doesn't approve of him.
She wants me to study.
I know what you mean. I'll do that.
Thank you.
Thank you for what?
It's nothing. She's thanking me for the food.
That's it?
You haven't been here for lunch in a while. Why today?
I dropped by on the way back from the bank.
Eat up. You have to get back to work.
Yes.
Your CEO's daughter visited Mom.
What's going on?
Nothing.
And she visited our mom?
Mom said she said you like each other.
- That's what she says. - Wait.
She said she liked you and you refused her?
How could you refuse a catch like her?
"A catch"? You don't know what she's like.
I do know very well.
Other men would just love to meet someone like her.
Stop talking such nonsense.
Do you know this Sunday is Mom's birthday?
Yes.
Are you going to bring Soo In?
Yes. Mom told me to.
Don't. I don't want to see her.
I told you to watch your tongue. If you're rude to her again,
I will teach you a lesson, okay?
I told you clearly. Do not bring her.
(Taesan Industries)
Se Young.
Let's talk.
Do you have something to say?
Why did you lie?
About what?
We spent the night together?
You left as soon as the curfew was lifted the next day?
Why do you keep asking?
You won't give in.
My landlady saw you leave before the siren rang...
and you're still insisting you stayed the night?
If you toy with me once more, I will make you pay.
My patience has limits.
I'll let you off this time.
I will not let you control me ever again.
Do you understand?
Why do you think I told such a lie?
I'm willing to go to such lengths to make you mine.
That's how much I love you.
I can do even worse to win you over.
Until you like me,
I will not, I will never give up.
I can do even worse to win you over.
Until you like me,
I will not, I will never give up.
Is something wrong?
You've been down the whole afternoon.
Did Jeong Shik say something hurtful?
He didn't.
Then what's wrong?
Soo In.
I have something to say.
If you toy with me once more, I will make you pay.
I will not let you control me ever again.
Does he think I'll give up?
He's wrong. I can't. Never.
What do you want to say?
Jeong Wook.
Let's...
get married.
I can meet your family tomorrow.
I want us to be married before autumn.
I'm going to the movies this Sunday.
With a man?
Did you think about the offer?
- He's too old. - Age means nothing.
Do you know how rich he is?
Give me your daughter. I will treat you well.
How old is Soo In this year?
Shouldn't she get married?
Stop talking nonsense and get out.
Mr. Choi asked me to marry him.
Do whatever you want.
Have fun. It'll be over soon.
Do you know who Se Young is dating?
