(Episode 67)
Hello, Ms. Yoon.
I'm Kang Sun Ae, Jae Hee's friend.
"Sun Ae"?
Yes, hello. It's been so long.
But why are you here with Dal Nim?
Mother, she's that friend I told you about last time.
Get lost.
What are you trying to tell her?
There's something you must know.
Mother, you don't need to listen to her.
No. Go ahead and tell me.
What do I need to know?
What you know is wrong.
Jae Hee and Se Na weren't best friends.
Se Na liked Sun Ho from a long time ago.
So she was always jealous of Jae Hee.
She even tried to stop Jae Hee from getting married.
So Jae Hee had a hard time because of her.
What do you mean?
She's lying, Mother.
Stop this nonsense, and get out.
Se Na even threatened me.
She said she won't stand still if I told you everything.
But I got angry when I heard that you think of Se Na as your daughter.
Se Na talked behind Jae Hee's back and called her...
a concubine's daughter.
Jae Hee suffered so much because of Se Na.
Of all people, why do you have to trust Se Na?
Mother, I'll explain everything.
- You shouldn't trust her. - Stay out of this, Se Na.
Now, I understand...
why Jae Wook fell for you.
Is this how you managed to seduce Jae Wook?
You were wrong if you thought this would make me believe you.
Ms. Yoon.
Did you get money from Dal Nim?
If you need money, just ask me...
instead of falling for her words.
Ms. Yoon, that's not it.
I heard you said something weird again last time.
I don't know why you came all the way here,
but you wasted your time. You should go back.
- Ms. Yoon. - I said, go back!
You're the one who's trying to fool me by covering...
my eyes and ears.
How dare you try to fool me by scheming with Sun Ae?
You're not believing the truth when it's right in front of you.
I already know the truth.
You killed Jae Hee. That's the truth.
It wasn't me.
The person who killed her is someone else.
I'm innocent.
I really can't hear any more of your nonsense.
Dal Nim, are you okay?
Jae Wook, what are you doing?
- Step away from her! - Mother!
It's useless to listen to your excuses.
It'll only taint my ears.
- Let's go, Dal Nim. - I'm not done talking.
You got a ring from Jae Wook, didn't you?
What are you trying to say?
Jae Wook, stay out of this.
I guess you at least have a conscience.
I thought it'd be on your finger already.
You're not planning to wear that ring, are you?
Why can't I wear that ring?
I did nothing wrong. So why am I not allowed to wear it?
What did you say?
You killed my daughter.
Do you really think you can become my daughter-in-law?
Aren't you even scared of the skies?
The moment you wear that ring,
you and Jae Wook will be doomed forever.
If you're a decent human being,
you better make the right decision.
I wasn't intending on wearing that ring at first,
but you're really making me want to wear it now.
Let's go.
Mother, you must've been startled.
Calm down.
I told you, didn't I? Dal Nim's not an easy one.
She's so good at making people fall for her naive look.
You're right.
She was talking back to you so confidently.
She's so scary.
My gosh, what are you going to do? This is so outrageous.
- Sun Ae. - Are you okay, Dal Nim?
Yes, I'm okay.
But how did you two meet each other?
I came to Korea a few days ago,
and Dal Nim contacted me...
after she saw the comment I left on Jae Hee's blog.
I wasn't planning to come at first,
but I came because Dal Nim kept pleading me.
I'm sure it wasn't an easy decision to come here. Thank you so much.
I'm upset that Ms. Yoon didn't believe me.
But I'm sure she'll soon see the truth behind Se Na.
Call me whenever you need my help.
- You should come to the restaurant. - Okay.
I'll be off then.
Be careful on your way back. I'll call you.
Do you regret going to my mother's birthday party?
No, I don't regret it.
I'm going to continue to fight.
I'm no longer going to avoid the situation or run away.
By the way, about that ring...
Don't let my mother's words bother you.
It's not like I didn't see that coming.
It's very natural for your mother to act that way.
I hope you don't return that ring to me because of her.
You can give it back for other reasons,
but I'm not going to take it if you give it back to me because of her.
I have no right to wear that ring right now.
But I promise I won't give it back to you because of your mother.
I'm sure she'll change her mind...
once the truth becomes revealed.
Okay. It's not going to be an easy path to walk.
I know.
But even if that path is full of thorns,
I'm still going to walk that path.
No. I have to walk that path.
I'm sure you'll see an end to this fight soon.
And you'll find what you want at the end of this fight.
Happiness and hope.
Let's trust that things will turn out positively.
But don't you think it was a bit too much to kick her out...
after pouring water over her?
Are you serious?
She shouldn't have come in the first place.
She's right. She should K.W.G.L.
"K.W.G.L"? What does that mean?
Do you even speak the alien language now?
It means "Know when to get lost".
She got kicked out after getting water dumped on her face...
because she didn't know when to get lost.
I can't believe Jae Wook brought her there,
and I can't believe she actually came.
Jae Wook's more of a problem.
How can he think about bringing her to his mother's birthday meal?
Jae Wook was a bit too careless this time.
Anyway, what is Ms. Yoon going to do now?
I know.
I can't believe Jae Wook gave Dal Nim a ring.
Ms. Yoon has every right to get angry.
The woman who killed her daughter is trying to marry her son.
What an irony of fate.
Jae Wook might not be her real son,
but he's the only family she has right now.
If it were me, I would feel so devastated.
But do you think that friend, Sun Ae, is telling the truth?
Do you really think Se Na and Jae Hee weren't on good terms?
Of course not.
She must've planned what to say with Dal Nim beforehand.
Sun Ho, do you know anything?
I'm going to go upstairs now.
Why does he always go upstairs when I ask him something?
My gosh.
Yi Ran. You're not believing what Sun Ae said to you, are you?
Se Na would never talk behind Jae Hee's back like that.
It's not true.
But did you really...
like Sun Ho from a long time ago?
You told me that you started liking him after Jae Hee died.
I should've been honest with you from the very beginning.
It's true that I liked Sun Ho from a long time ago.
But like Sun Ae said, it was just a one-sided love.
I never told anyone,
so Sun Ho and Jae Hee had no idea about my feelings.
But I was never jealous of Jae Hee, and I never put her in trouble.
I asked my high school friends about Sun Ae.
I heard that she came back to Korea...
because her business in Canada didn't go well.
But back when she was trying to get investments on her business,
she lied to the people around her by saying that...
her father is a high-ranking government official in Korea.
Really?
To be honest, she asked me if she could borrow money from me.
But I refused to help her.
So I think she tried to frame me because she was angry at me.
Okay, I understand.
It's too late now. You should go.
Okay, you should rest up.
Bye, Yi Ran.
Happy birthday.
Of course.
Se Na can't have lied to me.
Hey, did Dal Nim really ruin Ms. Yoon's birthday meal?
Dal Nim got me good today.
Jae Wook's a problem too.
But Dal Nim really must've lost her mind now.
She even brought Kang Sun Ae with her today.
We don't know what she might do next.
How many times did I tell you that you need to...
get rid of Dal Nim as soon as possible?
If Ms. Yoon begins to question us and starts investigating on us,
that will be a lot worse than what Dal Nim's doing right now.
Do you think I'm not aware of that?
Things will get out of hand if Ms. Yoon starts to doubt us.
It'll only be a matter of time before we get caught.
Mom, haven't you heard anything from Jo Byung Soo?
If we find Ms. Yoon's daughter,
we'll be able to control her as we wish.
Okay, I'll try calling him.
Just wear it if you want to.
Not yet.
Is it because of Chef Jung's mother?
If it were me, I'd be wearing it around already...
to make her become furious.
Don't say that.
By the way, Ms. Yoon seemed to believe in Se Na...
even after hearing what Sun Ae said to her.
Her trust towards Se Na is too strong.
I feel like I'm banging my head against a brick wall.
They say, "Persistency is key."
I'm sure you'll be able to get through to her one day.
Yes, you're right.
My gosh, Geum Sook. You know how to say the right things now.
Why did you want to see me from so early in the morning?
I have something to tell you.
What is it?
Well,
it's about our marriage.
I'd like some time to think about it again.
What do you mean?
I feel like I'm trapped in a fog.
Everything's so foggy and unclear, so it's difficult...
to see what's in front of me.
Right now, I can't even draw...
our future together.
Are you doing this because of what Sun Ae said yesterday?
It's not entirely because of her.
It's also because of the recipe leak.
This is all because of Dal Nim.
You're doing this because...
she brought Sun Ae yesterday and made her talk nonsense.
I told you not to connect things with Dal Nim.
This is a problem between you and me.
I really don't think this is the right thing to do.
I can't get married to you...
in such a bewildered state.
Did you think you'd be able to...
cancel our marriage this easily?
If you do this,
I'm no longer going to stand still either.
What are you going to do?
You're being like this...
because Dal Nim keeps saying that she's innocent...
and that she got framed.
If our marriage breaks off because of Dal Nim,
I'm also going to ruin her too.
I'm going to tell...
your whole family...
about Dal Nim and Se Kang's past relationship.
- What? - I'm going to ruin everything.
You better make the right choice.
You can't just cancel our marriage like this.
I'm never going to let you go.
No. I can't let you go.
Do you really don't understand why I'm being like this?
I can't bring myself to marry you when everything's so unclear.
It's not too late to get married when the fog disappears...
and everything becomes clear again.
If you keep doing this, not only will you ruin Ruby's life,
but you'll also ruin everyone around you including us.
The peace and happiness that everyone's enjoying right now...
will all break into pieces.
When everyone finds out,
who do you think everyone will end up blaming?
Dal Nim will become the target.
She'll be receiving everyone's...
resent and criticism.
She'll get torn into pieces and become a wreck.
If that's what you want, then go ahead.
What? He wants to postpone the marriage?
He's just trying to break off the marriage.
How can he do this to you?
You even saved him from getting kicked out of the company.
- I better... - Just let it go.
How can I let this go?
If you get involved, you'll only make things more complicated.
It's best to just let us take care of this on our own.
You're right. If his parents find out,
it'll get annoying since they'll start questioning us.
Don't worry too much.
Sun Ho will never be able to escape from me.
I'm going to make sure he never does.
A new product development?
You saw the research materials on the new product, right?
The company's struggling after the cancelation of glasswort noodles.
If we succeed in developing a new product,
I think we'll be able to help the company make up for the loss.
Okay. We may have failed to launch glasswort noodles,
but I'll try my best to succeed with this one.
By the way, about how you gave Dal Nim a ring...
When did you start liking Dal Nim?
I realized my feelings for her as I started working with her...
at the restaurant.
I realized that I started liking her ever since...
she gave me that red scarf when I was little.
But she hasn't given me an answer yet.
I'm still waiting.
I know it won't be easy.
But I'm still going to do my best until the end.
I heard you met with...
Ms. Cha and settled the dispute regarding the recipe leak.
I told you that...
I'll do whatever it takes to beat Choigo Foods.
Are you sure you took care of things properly?
Don't worry.
They won't ever be able to mention the recipe leak again.
How can you be so sure?
I have my own way of controlling Ms. Cha.
What's that?
I can't tell you anything in specific.
Now that I've shown you my skills,
I'd like you to consider taking over Hyun Foods.
A promise is a promise. So I'll look into it positively.
Thank you.
I'll trust that you'll take care of things.
Welcome.
I guess Director Hyun was here to talk about the recipe leak with you.
Yes.
Like you said, he's a complete fox.
Anyway, he really must be pretty competent,
seeing that he was able to stop Ms. Cha from doing anything.
What do you mean?
I don't know the specifics.
But he said he has his way of controlling Ms. Cha.
I guess it's something private between them.
I see.
Mother, here's the wedding date that Se Na's mother has scheduled.
Next month is a bit too quick,
but I guess it could work...
if we simplify the wedding gifts.
Okay, Mother.
I can't believe Sun Ho and Se Na are finally getting married.
Hey, Sun Ho.
Grandma, I have something to tell you.
- To be honest... - I'm home.
How did you guys come home together?
I met her after I got off work, so I brought her with me.
Great timing. We were just talking about your wedding.
I guess you just need to hand out wedding invitations now.
I'm going to boast to my friends.
Ko Bong's dream is to go dancing with his grandchild.
You should make his wish come true.
My gosh.
Se Na can't get pregnant first.
We need to have a baby before she does.
Yes, you're right.
I don't know about anything else,
but I can't let you get pregnant first.
Yes, don't let her get pregnant first.
What are you doing?
Do you think you'll be able to cancel our wedding...
just by hiding a picture frame?
I told you already.
If you keep doing this,
I'm going to tell everyone.
Do you want everyone to become unhappy?
Why do I need to be the only one who's unhappy?
You're just temporarily being swayed by the wind.
You'll come back to me once the wind stops blowing.
I also hope it's just a wind.
But the situation's only getting worse as time goes by.
This isn't love. This is an obsession.
Are you saying that...
all those times of crying and waiting for you to come around...
was all an obsession?
You don't know anything.
You don't know what I had to go through...
to get you to like me.
I came all the way here by having to go through...
such a torturous time.
I want you to choose right now.
Ruby's going to come soon.
You should just tell her the truth and end everything once and for all.
Se Na, how can you do this?
Ruby, we were waiting for you.
You said you have something to say to me. What is it?
There's actually something I didn't tell you.
Sun Ho will tell you what that is.
What are you doing? Go on and tell her.
What is it about?
Should I tell her if you can't?
Stop hesitating and just tell me. What's it about?
- To be honest... - Aunt Ruby.
I'm sorry for not making it to the wedding shop that day.
I know you tried hard to make a reservation for us.
Was that what you wanted to tell me?
My gosh, how lame.
But you really shouldn't have stood up on her that day.
When are you planning to go again? I'll make a reservation for you.
We'll tell you after Sun Ho and I agree on a date.
Okay.
Sun Ho, you better not stand up on her again. Make sure you come.
(Matna Short Rib Soup)
I've looked over the recipes you gave me...
regarding the new product development.
Mi Jung's teriyaki-seasoned meat.
And Dong Jae's...
fried pork with honey and red chili paste.
Both your ideas weren't bad.
But our restaurant specializes in making short rib soup.
And they weren't fit to be in the menu.
So I'm sorry to say that your recipes didn't get picked.
Lastly, Dal Nim's recipe was for steamed short ribs with seafood.
Your recipe is going to become our restaurant's new menu.
Really?
I think your menu goes well with the concept of our restaurant.
You're really the best, Dal Nim.
Congratulations.
But your sauce needs more development.
So starting from today,
you and I will be developing the new menu.
Okay, I'll do my best.
Let's talk in my office.
What should we do?
I asked a friend I know to get this fixed,
but he says it's impossible.
I didn't expect much anyway.
Director Choi already told us that it wasn't possible.
- Did you want to see me? - Please sit down.
I was wondering if Geum Sook could help us with this.
Geum Sook, do you know anyone who can repair a broken hard drive?
This hard drive has the original photo of Se Na wearing the bracelet.
But it got attacked by a virus, so it's hard to get it repaired.
Give it to me. One of my cellmate's boyfriend...
was a hacker.
- I'll ask him to fix this. - Please do us a favor.
You said you found someone similar. How are things going?
Don't you know where she is yet?
We got in touch with one of her friends from the orphanage.
We're asking around, so I'm sure we'll be able to find her soon.
If she ends up being someone else's daughter,
I'm not going to sit back and watch like this anymore.
What? What do you mean?
Does that mean you're going to look for her yourself?
Yes.
I can't keep waiting for you...
to bring me results.
No, don't do that Yi Ran. I'm sure she's going to be your daughter.
So you don't need to get involved.
Just try to be calm and wait until we find her.
Why hasn't Jo Byung Soo called me yet?
Speak of the devil.
Yes, it's me. How did things go? Haven't you found her yet?
What? You found her?
Come inside.
She's Seo Moon Joo.
She lives in a gosiwon in Sillim. I barely managed to find her.
Come on inside.
You can come here and sit down.
Were you born in May, 1983? Are you 35 years old?
Did you get adopted after getting abandoned in a market?
Yes.
Can you tell us how you lived your life until now?
Are you really going to find my parents for me?
Of course.
I'm asking to check if you're the real daughter.
My gosh, I already checked with her. She's her real daughter.
Can I eat this?
Yes, go ahead.
Slow down. Here.
It seems like you haven't eaten for days.
Not exactly. But I haven't eaten anything since yesterday.
Are you struggling financially?
To be honest, I have bad credit,
so it's hard for me to find jobs.
And I might have to move out of the gosiwon soon.
How did that happen?
My foster parents abandoned me when I was eight years old.
So I lived at the orphanage until I graduated high school.
I worked as an accountant at a small architecture firm after graduating.
But the firm suddenly went bankrupt.
So I had to leave without getting my overdue payments.
That's when my debt started to grow.
She couldn't find a job after that, so she had to wander around.
My gosh, be quiet. The question was for her.
I got into a motorcycle accident while I was doing a part-time job.
I was hospitalized for about 3 to 4 months,
which cost me so much money.
And the deposit money for my house was being used as monthly rent.
Then I ended up getting kicked out.
And I couldn't even pay off my credit card bills.
Have you ever seen this before?
I'm not sure.
There's no way she'll still have that old thing.
Please give me a strand of your hair.
Okay.
- Keep it well. - Okay.
You can go back for now.
We'll call you as soon as we have the results.
But can you tell me who's looking for me?
We can't tell you that yet.
Just know that it's someone famous, so this can't get out to the public.
Really?
We'll tell you when we have the results.
You'll only end up getting disappointed...
if the results tell us that you're not her real daughter.
Okay.
Please find my parents for me.
You can't just send her back empty-handed.
You should give her some money.
- But... - No, it's okay.
- Here. - My gosh.
My gosh, thank you. Thank you so much.
- Please contact me. - Okay.
- Let's go. - Okay.
Okay, bye.
I'll go to a facility I know and ask them to conduct a DNA test.
I hope she turns out to be her daughter.
Yi Ran said she's going to look for her herself...
if she doesn't turn out to be her daughter.
I think she's really anxious to find her.
Sun Ho's trying to postpone the marriage.
So we need to at least have full control over Ms. Yoon.
Everything will be over as soon as we have the test results.
If she really turns out to be Ms. Yoon's daughter,
we shouldn't hand her over so easily.
We need to keep her in our hands...
and take everything we can from Ms. Yoon by using her.
How does it taste?
It smells a bit fishy. It also smells of meat.
We need to get rid of the bad smell of fish and meat.
When I used to sell meat,
we used ginger and garlic to get rid of the bad meat smell.
We're cooking seafood and meat at the same time,
so I don't think that'll work.
What do you think about using red chili paste with tomatoes?
Here's the steamed short ribs with seafood.
How does it taste? Does it taste okay?
It tastes amazing. Try some.
My gosh, what is this?
What do you think? It tastes amazing, doesn't it?
It's sweet, salty, and weird.
Why are you taking it out on me? You're the one who made this.
What should we do now? This recipe won't work either.
We only just got started. You can't get disappointed already.
Do you know how many years it took for me to develop...
soybean sauce in New York?
Oh, right. What do you think about using soybean sauce?
We use a spoon of soybean paste to get rid of the bad meat smell...
when we boil meat.
What are you doing?
Don't try to accuse me for filming something in secret.
I didn't take any weird photos.
Let me see. Show me what you took. Come on.
My gosh, show it to me!
What if there aren't any weird photos in my cell phone?
Will you go on a date with me?
Forget it.
Aren't you curious to see what I took?
I'm not curious at all.
Don't disturb me while I'm working. Go away.
Okay, I won't disturb you.
Let's get to work.
Let's see.
(Matna Short Rib Soup)
I want this and this.
I want this too.
And get me the most expensive alcohol there is in this restaurant.
Are you going to eat everything by yourself?
I'll take home the leftovers.
- Is today a special day? - Yes, it is.
I'll be able to buy a building soon.
Things must be working out for you.
I went to all the orphanages in Seoul...
and finally completed my mission.
I told you that I'll be able to open 12 restaurants like this.
"Orphanages"?
Do you have plans after work?
What do you say? Should we...
go to Mojito to drink some Maldives?
I'll treat you to some drinks.
Jo Byung Soo's here right now.
Really?
Did you find anything out?
He said he completed his mission by searching all the orphanages.
He's apparently going to get rich soon. He's so happy.
I think this is something huge.
You said you found a list of orphanages in Ms. Ma's room.
Exactly.
I think Ms. Ma asked him to look for someone.
And he must've succeeded in finding that person at an orphanage.
Did you ask Jo Byung Soo to look for...
my mother's long-lost daughter?
Why do you want to know that?
It's just so weird.
You only met him a couple times.
How can you ask him to do something so important?
Don't jump to conclusions. I didn't ask him to do anything.
Then who did you ask?
I asked a trustworthy person, so don't worry.
I have a right to know.
I may not be her real son, but she's still my mother.
And that person's going to become my sister as well.
Just be patient and wait.
I'll let you know once I find her.
What? You really found Ms. Yoon's daughter?
We're waiting for the DNA test results to come out.
I'm 99 percent certain.
When are we getting the results?
Se Na's going to bring it with her on her way back from work.
She should be here by now.
I'm so curious to know the results.
Se Na, how did it go?
It's her, right?
You should look for yourself.
(The DNAs do not match.)
What is this?
"The DNAs do not match"? That means it's not her.
My gosh, this can't be true.
Are you sure they checked properly?
We made the wrong guess.
This is ruining everything.
My gosh, I knew something was weird.
It's not an easy job to find a long-lost child.
Hey, don't you think Jo Byung Soo should do a better job...
when he's being paid for everything?
Gosh, how am I supposed to tell Yi Ran this?
She said she's going to look for...
her daughter herself if we fail this time.
That's why we need to find her before she does.
My gosh, it's not easy to find someone with just a photo...
of her baby's clothes.
We need more clues to find her.
Is that what the baby was wearing?
Let me see.
I think I've seen this somewhere.
Where did I see this?
What's that?
Dal Nim was wearing this...
when we first found her.
This is...
Mom. Mom. This is...
What's wrong with you?
Why are you shaking and stuttering?
No. This is... This is... Dal Nim...
What about Dal Nim?
This looks exactly like Dal Nim's.
I saw it. I saw Dal Nim's mother holding this.
- What? - Are you serious?
Yes, I saw this with my own two eyes.
(Sweet Enemy)
Let's go to Dal Nim's house.
My gosh, what are we going to do?
I think she's the daughter you're looking for.
Did you really find my daughter?
