Stop being stubborn and take it.
If I really need help,
I will muster the courage to ask you.
I can't accept anything right now.
Thank you for the thought.
Come in.
What brings you here, Mr. Choi?
Right, ma'am. I'm...
Why are you here?
My boss told me to give you the foundation's budget.
Did he?
You can go, Soo In.
Yes, ma'am.
Mr. Choi.
- Yes? - Sit down.
Thank you.
Here's the budget.
Okay, thanks.
Putting this report together must've been a lot of work.
Thank Mr. Jung for me.
I will.
May I ask...
who the lady was?
She's just someone I know.
I see.
Why did you ask?
For no reason.
I think I should go, ma'am.
Why so soon? Can't you stay for some tea?
Sorry. I have to meet another buyer.
Do you? It can't be helped, then.
I'll see you again.
Yes, ma'am. Goodbye.
(Chungil Flour)
Soo In.
Why did Madam Cho call you?
What is it?
Did something upset you?
What? No, nothing upset me.
She wanted to see how I was doing.
Is that it? That's a relief, then.
Seeing how she treats you,
I can tell she likes you.
Now you aren't that close because the marriage fell through.
I have to go inside and cut up some fabric.
I have to finish it today.
Okay. I'll watch the store.
Go back to work.
Sorry for keeping you.
No, it's fine.
What brings you here, Mr. Choi?
My boss told me to give you the foundation's budget.
Was Taesan Noodles...
doing business with Chungil Flour?
Madam Cho knows Jeong Wook.
Does that mean Mr. Kim knows him too?
Soo In was with Chungil's Madam Cho?
How do they know each other?
Did everything go well?
Yes, Father.
Did you give Madam Cho the papers?
Yes. Are you going somewhere?
Yes, to meet Director Kim from Sungshim Bakery.
We have to put our Chungil plan in motion.
Right. Stay safe, sir.
Thanks.
I heard your company is in some financial difficulty.
It must be tough.
How did you hear about that?
I heard about it at the foundation's board meeting.
I am in quite a tough spot at the moment.
We spent too much on developing a new product.
It's all because I was a poor executive.
Such trial and error is what makes a great company.
Thank you for saying so.
So, why did you want to see me today?
I thought I could be of some help, however small that may be,
so I called you.
What do you mean?
I could give you a loan.
That should get you through the current crisis.
You will lend me money?
Yes, we're on the same board and hearing about your struggles...
made me want to help.
Thank you so much.
I just can't get any funds right now.
I don't know how to thank you enough.
That's fine. How much do you need?
Well, I need quite a lot.
I need 100,000 dollars. Do you have that much?
Yes, I do.
I'll call you when I have it ready.
Madam Cho had told me you were a great person.
You're greater than I thought.
You're flattering me.
I would like to give you a check if possible.
I like things to be exact.
Would you mind?
Not at all.
Thank you for trusting me and offering to help.
I will pay you back as soon as possible.
No, no. Take your time. Pay me back when you can.
Hello, Dong Chul.
Hi, not you again.
Why are you always delivering the noodles?
Why don't you send one of your junior staffs instead?
You're my brother-in-law and I'm taking personal responsibility.
Do you not like seeing me?
It's just that I think it's extra work for you.
It's not.
And I get to see you one extra time.
You're so cheerful.
This attitude and diligence is what made you factory manager.
It's not just me. Everyone in our family works hard.
Even Soo In works while raising a son.
Soo In works now? Where?
At Jung In's boutique.
They'll move in together soon.
- Oh, really? - Yes.
It must be hard to raise a child alone,
and now she has to work too. I feel sorry for her.
You don't have to.
She chose to live that life.
How can you say that?
Don't you miss Ji Hoon?
I saw him yesterday and I can't get him out of my mind.
I keep seeing the boy's face wherever I go.
If they lived in Incheon, we could...
see him every day.
We can't because of her situation,
and that's such a pity.
What did your sister say?
Did she see a fortune-teller?
No. You were right.
She didn't see anyone. She lied.
She must really dislike me a lot.
Ms. Oh, why don't we just...
move in together now?
We can get married ourselves.
I told you already.
I want to get married with everyone's blessing.
I know that,
but I didn't think my sister would go so far.
I did as you said and moved home to persuade my family,
but I have a feeling my sister and Jae Man won't accept us...
even if a miracle were to happen.
We knew it wouldn't be easy.
Now is the time when we need to be patient.
I don't want to cause you any more heartache.
I'm fine. If you keep trying, they will give in one day.
You made me fall for you.
Can't you do the same to your sister and brother-in-law?
I believe that you can.
Okay. You believe in me.
I'll try again. Wish me luck.
Why did you follow me in here?
Dad, I told you yesterday.
I want to marry Jeong Wook now.
We talked about it already.
Just set a date for our wedding.
We need to rent a hall and get prepared.
Se Young, I already said no.
Why are you being so stubborn?
Please, Dad.
I need to get married now.
You don't have to.
Wait until I say you can.
I can't wait any longer.
What's wrong with you?
If you don't let me marry Jeong Wook now,
I don't know what I'll do.
Se Young!
My goodness.
It's not like we said no.
Why won't she even eat?
Leave her alone.
She wants what she can't get. Don't worry about her.
Honey.
What is it, Se Young?
Do you want some food?
No thanks.
Jeong Wook, let's talk.
Se Young.
Let's just talk.
I don't think we're getting anywhere.
Let's register our marriage first.
Se Young.
That's the only way.
If we register our marriage, Dad will have to give in.
Se Young, why are you like this?
Why are you rushing our wedding?
Is this about Soo In?
Is that it?
No, it's not about her.
Then why are you like this?
Do you really not know how I feel?
I can't wait to marry you,
but Dad keeps pushing back our wedding.
I'm so afraid that one day...
you might leave me.
Why would you say that? It will never happen.
Please, Jeong Wook. Let's register our marriage first.
No. Your father's very angry.
Stop being stubborn.
No. Just do as I say.
I won't.
Jeong Wook.
Will you just stop?
I've had enough.
I don't care what you do next.
Darn it.
Why did you want to see me?
I wanted to ask you something.
Do you know if Chungil Flour supplies...
Taesan Noodles with flour?
What?
Yes.
Why are you asking?
Madam Cho called me to her office today.
I met Mr. Choi there.
Oh. I see.
I wasn't able to tell you. Chungil's been doing business with...
Taesan Noodles for a few years now.
They worked together to create a foundation too.
Really?
Then Mr. Kim and Mr. Choi...
must know each other.
Yes, I believe they do.
I see.
Soo In, I know what you're worried about.
To tell the truth, I knew that you and Jeong Wook...
were dating.
He told me about it.
But what you fear won't happen.
Like you said, Ji Hoon's father is dead.
Tae Soo.
Nothing will happen to you and Ji Hoon.
Don't worry too much.
How about we bring Soo In and...
Ji Hoon to Incheon?
To Incheon? Why so suddenly?
What do you mean why?
She leaves her kid with a neighbor so she can go to work.
It must be really hard for a single mom to raise a son.
It must be better for her to live with us.
No.
Why not?
What about the gossip?
Isn't that why you didn't want her to come home?
At first, yes. But gossip won't last.
We just have to put up with the initial embarrassment.
Let's have her move back home...
so it's easier on her.
Even if we tell her to come home, she won't.
What reason does she have not to?
Her hometown is better than any other places.
She has no one to help her there,
but here she has us.
She might not want to come back because of...
the stigma of the embezzlement charge.
Bringing this up will only upset her.
Leave her be.
What a rotten life.
She can't even come home to live with us.
She should register Ji Hoon's birth...
so that Ji Hoon can start going to school.
There's still time to do that.
We can discuss that with her.
Se Young's acting like that...
for a reason.
Why did you lie to me?
Did you think I wouldn't know?
How long were you going to deceive me?
Se Young, why are you so angry?
Do you really not know why?
What's this about?
You said no. You said it wouldn't be.
You said nothing happened.
You said you weren't keeping anything from me.
Be direct. I have no idea what you're talking about.
Yoon Soo In.
Soo In. Soo In and you!
It's about Soo In.
Soo In and Se Young.
What happened between them?
Why did you drink so much?
Jeong Wook.
Is it about me?
Yes. Se Young.
It's so hard.
Can't you stop being so hard on me and tell me the truth?
Why are you like this?
Can you just tell me the truth?
Jeong Wook.
You can go.
Jeong Wook.
I wish I could tell you...
the reason I'm like this.
Not being able to tell you...
is really hard on me too.
Yes. Tae Soo works at Chungil.
He must've met Soo In.
Why did you call?
I don't think we're close enough to meet like this.
Tae Soo, I want to see Soo In.
What do you mean you want to see her?
I must ask her something.
You must know her number.
Said who? I don't have it.
Then give me her address.
I don't have it.
You don't?
I don't have it.
Don't lie. I was at Chungil yesterday and...
I saw Soo In with Madam Cho.
They knew each other.
You're Madam Cho's driver. You must have Soo In's address.
Whether it makes sense or not, I don't have it.
Even if I did, I wouldn't give it to you.
I couldn't.
Is there a reason I shouldn't see her?
Is that what this is about?
There is no such reason.
Then why can't I see her?
It's over between you two.
Why should you see Soo In?
Tae Soo, I really need her number.
After what you did to her,
you want to see her again?
Tae Soo.
You framed her for embezzlement years ago.
I didn't tell her about it.
Do you know why?
So I don't ruin the memories...
she has of you.
Greed turned you into a monster.
I can't let you see her.
Don't come to me about this again.
Tae Soo.
Sook Hee, what will you do about Se Young?
I don't know.
To be honest, I understand how she feels.
She loves him so much.
What?
Think about it.
You know how much she loves Mr. Choi.
They've been engaged for four years now.
She managed to wait for this long.
Be quiet. Don't you make me feel worse.
See if you can talk to Jae Man...
and marry them off.
Or Se Young might do something drastic.
You know what she's like.
Remember what she did to not go on a blind date?
Shut your mouth. Why would you mention that?
I'm just saying this out of concern for her.
- Oh dear. - It's all your fault.
Her only uncle fell in love with someone called Seol Hee...
and is being belligerent.
Where do you think she got the idea?
Why are you blaming me for this?
Don't you worry about Se Young.
What will you do?
Will you not give up that woman?
I won't.
Se Young appreciates love because she takes after me.
You talk like that's a virtue.
Pure love...
is something you can't buy with money.
Are you going to skip work again today?
I was just about to leave.
See you later.
I should sort him out first.
What should I do?
What's this?
You must've been through this before.
Don't feign ignorance.
This is a first. I don't know what it is.
Don't be silly. It's obviously money.
Yes, I guess so.
What I want to know is why you're giving this to me.
Are you still playing the fool?
Forget it. I'll get right to the point.
Take this and leave my brother alone.
What? Mr. Jung's wife gave you an envelope full of money?
Yes, she did.
What did you do?
I took it, of course.
Will you break up with Mr. Hong then?
Why would I break up with him?
You took the money. Doesn't that mean you must break up?
Gosh, no. I have no intention of doing that.
Then you shouldn't have taken the money. Why did you?
Why turn down a gift like that?
What?
I know what I'm doing, so don't worry.
Is Young Sun out again?
She went to Seoul to give Tae Soo some food.
She's so generous and thoughtful.
She is.
Mother.
Why are you here?
Have you lost your mind?
What if you were to meet Seon Woo?
He's trying his best to try to get over things.
How would he feel if he were to see you?
Didn't you think this through?
I'm sorry, Mother. I didn't think of that.
I brought Tae Soo some food and...
I don't care who you're here for.
Don't you ever come here again.
I won't, Mother. I'm sorry.
Please, forget about Seon Woo and get on...
with your own life.
If you care for him at all,
not letting him see you is the best you can do for him.
I feel uncomfortable seeing you as well.
Mother...
Do what you always did.
Go back and care for your current family.
I'll live with Seon Woo.
Let's go back to before we met.
Get on with your own life.
This trip went so well thanks to you.
I had a great time traveling with you.
Let's report to Grandma and go home.
Sure.
Se Young, what are you doing?
Don't stop me. This is the only way to marry Jeong Wook.
I won't come home until Dad gives in.
Are you sure you're thinking straight?
It's the middle of the night.
Then what?
Dad will never let me marry Jeong Wook.
He will let you, just not right now.
Why are you doing this when you can just wait?
How long must I wait? I don't trust Dad anymore.
Se Young.
I need to get married.
I have to and soon.
I get it now, so will you calm down? When your dad comes home,
I'll ask him if he can't hurry things up.
Don't scare me by threatening to...
leave home. Calm down and wait, will you?
Darn it.
Yes?
Mother.
You must know why Se Young's like this.
No, I don't know.
Who does if you don't?
Do you know how stressed I am because of you two?
I apologize.
To be honest, you're the reason she's acting like that.
Why would she want to rush the wedding?
It has to be about you.
What happened between you and Soo In?
What did she find out? Why is she so upset?
It has nothing to do with Ms. Yoon.
I really don't know why Se Young's like this.
You don't? What else would upset her so much...
other than you and Soo In?
Are you still seeing her?
No, I am not.
I don't believe you anymore.
Mother, please.
Se Young's my only child.
If something happens to her because of you and Soo In,
I will not forgive you.
Tae Soo, I want to see Soo In.
What do you mean you want to see her?
I must ask her something.
After what you did to her,
you want to see her again?
Tae Soo.
Greed turned you into a monster.
I can't let you see her.
Don't come to me about this again.
I need to see Soo In.
Whatever it takes. I must see her.
(Taesan Industries)
Here.
I need to go to Seoul.
Daesung Store's Mr. Kim called.
He wants to increase his order.
Does he?
Isn't that store located in Shinchon?
It is.
Then talk to Se Young while you're there.
See if you can find out why she's acting so strange.
I will.
I'm sorry for the trouble.
Do you want to rush the wedding as well?
No. I do love Se Young and would love to marry her,
but I don't want to force things.
I want to take my time because...
Se Young's still in college and it's hard for me to...
let go of my only child so quickly.
I hope you don't misunderstand.
I don't.
Talk to Se Young...
and see if you can persuade her.
I will, sir.
(Shinchon Boutique)
Soo In.
Mr. Kim.
Why are you here?
I got something for Ji Hoon during my trip to Japan.
It's just a toy.
It wasn't expensive, so don't feel any pressure.
Thank you.
I just came to give you this.
You must be busy. I won't keep you any longer.
Bye, then.
Mr. Kim.
Mr. Choi.
Were you here to see a buyer?
Yes. I heard about your business trip to Japan.
I got back yesterday.
I see.
Who's the young lady that you were with?
Oh, did you see us?
Yes, I just happened to.
She's the person I told you about back then.
Then you mean...
she's the person you love?
Yes.
The live-in helper...
who has a child?
Yes, you're right. That's her.
You two can get married.
Can we? Thank you, Dad.
What's that look about? Are you not pleased?
Your son. Who's his dad?
Why should I tell you that?
Is he my son?
No. He isn't.
Find out about Soo In and her child.
Hello, everyone.
Hello.
Did you know that Soo In has a child?
Is she in Incheon?
