- Check the monitor. - Yes, doctor.
Jae Wook, don't resent me.
You have no right to do so.
You knew how I felt about In Wook. Why did you have to do this? Why?
Ji Sup.
Don't do this.
Please.
Please think about Hae Sol.
Hey.
How much did he drink?
Hey. Are you okay?
Don't even think about blaming me.
I didn't touch you at all.
I know. Please leave.
Get up. It's dangerous out here. You may get killed.
Just leave me alone, and go.
Are you trying to die?
If you want to die,
you should hang yourself or take sleeping pills. Do it alone.
Don't make an innocent person a murderer.
You must have a family too.
Think of your family that's waiting for you at home.
What's wrong with you?
You knew I was waiting. Why did you make me wait so long?
Why?
Do you think only you are having a hard time?
Hae Sol and I are trying our best too.
If you keep doing this, whom are we supposed to rely on?
Sorry.
Did I ask for your apologies?
We can just make more of that stupid money.
- "Stupid money"? - Yes, stupid money!
Because of that "stupid money",
our family is about to be homeless.
Because of that "stupid money",
our home, which we worked so hard for, is a wreck.
Because of that "stupid money",
I was fired from my company that I had placed my future on.
Because of that "stupid money."
Ms. Wi.
Hae Rim.
Ms. Wi.
How's Jae Wook?
He's okay, right?
What's going on, In Wook?
- Did Jae Wook... - He'll be fine.
Once he gets past this,
he'll be fine.
That's right. He should be.
Of course he should be.
Jae Wook. How is Jae Wook?
He is stabilized for now.
- Ms. Wi. - I'm fine.
I'm fine.
Thank you.
It isn't over yet.
I don't know how much more he can endure.
You should prepare yourselves.
What do you mean?
He's alive and doing fine. Prepare ourselves for what?
Our dear Jae Wook...
will wake up, so don't say things like that.
My apologies.
Don't worry.
With you holding onto him so tightly like this,
he can't go anywhere.
Jae Wook can't leave.
Of course not. That's right.
He's my son. He wouldn't dare give up like this.
You must have been shocked.
You should go. It's getting late.
Is that all you have to say?
Can't you comfort me?
I ran over at once after I heard Jae Wook was in a critical state.
I felt like all of my blood was being drained from my body.
I know,
but you're not alone in this.
No one here is hurt any less than you are.
Take care on your way home.
Luckily, Chief Director Kang has stabilized.
He won't be able to leave that easily.
He has too many grudges against me.
Mr. Chairman, I think...
you should call In Wook...
Stop annoying me.
He's tired enough without me adding to it.
Your blood pressure won't come down.
I know well about my own body.
I just need a little rest.
You'd better not call him.
If you do, you're fired.
Is your grandfather...
still not here yet?
It was getting too late,
so I didn't call him.
Late?
Your brother is dying,
but you didn't call your grandfather because it's a little late?
He hasn't been looking well lately.
Jae Wook's accident...
must have been too shocking for him.
Sure.
I'm sure it was too shocking for him.
His grandson, whom he had never been warm to,
is suddenly lying here like this.
I'm sure he feels ill.
Don't put your guard down.
It's too soon to think...
that your grandfather's company will automatically be yours...
now that Jae Wook is like this.
Mother.
- How could you say that? - I'm sure you know too.
Ever since I brought Jae Wook into your home,
he never received any love.
Your grandfather was cold to him for being a mistress' son.
And you...
hated him for being the son of your step-mom who killed your mom.
I was the one person who had to look out for him,
but I was too busy caring for you...
that I had to...
be mean...
and strict...
to this poor child.
Jae Wook...
sacrificed a lot for you.
If you know that,
don't be too hasty.
Brain-dead?
It doesn't look so good.
If his condition persists,
he may become brain-dead.
If he's lucky...
If he's lucky?
He may be in a coma only for a year or two.
So...
he will either be brain-dead...
or in a coma?
Without a miracle,
Kang Jae Wook...
can't recover.
Jae Wook, I never imagined...
that you'd give me such a big gift.
Is Jae Wook still unconscious?
Who are you to ask about him?
You know. Don't be so hypocritical.
I can handle spoiled brats, but I can't stand hypocrites.
Follow me.
How dare you come here?
This is why you really need to get to know people.
Now that I see it, you're totally my type.
I was scared for nothing.
- What? - You and I are of the same breed,
so I'm sure you'll understand.
Are you insane?
I'm not insane. This is only being fair.
You're worse than I imagined.
How can I understand you...
when you are shameless enough to show your face here...
after making Jae Wook like that?
You're the one who made him like that.
You trampled on his pride and insulted him!
Then shouldn't you thank me?
Thanks to that, a woman like you...
got to be a booty call for the son of a conglomerate family.
You've got a point.
Whenever you trampled on him,
he always embraced me.
I have something else to thank you for.
But it wouldn't be fun to tell you everything at once.
I'll have another chance later.
What do you want?
There's only one thing that I want.
Your father, Assemblyman Jin Kook Hyun,
has a lot of money.
And I have heard that you are a doctor.
So do whatever it takes to save Jae Wook.
If he dies, I will never forgive you.
(Gangin Group)
How could I take Jae Wook's position away from him?
You're not taking it from him.
There's no time to be emotional and sentimental.
The project he was working on is about to become nothing.
Do you know how big a loss the company will suffer?
Look around. There are plenty of people more suitable than I am.
Do you think I'm made of steel?
I'd like to settle things in my life now.
But when I think about the employees and their families,
I just can't.
I'm too anxious to sleep comfortably.
Each and every day is a battlefield.
The world scares me more each day.
Can't you help your grandpa from all these troubles?
In Wook?
Okay.
That sly old fox.
He brought in In Wook already?
Hello, Ms. Wi.
What did you just say?
They'll probably make the announcement soon.
Why is the chairman in such a rush?
I don't understand.
I agree.
Thank you for your concern.
I'll call you soon.
I don't think so.
Should I wash these, Madam?
No. Throw them all away, and replace them.
Oh, gosh. Ms. Wi ordered these not so long ago...
from Cheongdam-dong at a high price.
Then you can send them back to her.
Oh, gosh. What is with my head?
The Assemblyman told me not to forget.
Leave it there. I'll take it myself.
Make sure to take it on time.
What is all this?
Are we having a party? Is there a celebration?
Don't talk to me. I'm busy.
What's so great about a family moving in...
because they lost everything they had?
The emptier you feel, the more you need to eat.
Watch your mouth.
They already have heavy hearts.
Who doesn't have a heavy heart?
If you think about it, everyone lives in pain!
What's wrong with her?
- My baby. - Grandma!
My goodness. My puppy's here.
I'm glad you came.
I'm sorry.
Why are you apologizing to your mom? We are family.
Wow. That smells yummy. Grandpa!
Where's Ji Sup?
I'm sorry to bother you. It won't be for too long.
You can live here forever, so come in.
But is that all you have?
I know, right?
I feel bad for Cha Ra.
She's studying for college, but we took her room.
There you go again.
What happened, happened.
We have to endure it to get through it.
Right, husband?
I'll go help my dad.
Take a short break, and come out for dinner.
Okay.
He went out again. I knew it.
Excuse me.
Is Sung Hae out?
Who are you?
I live in the room next door.
Here. Tell him it was delicious for me.
You ate this food?
My family lives far away, so I don't get home cooking much.
That's why Sung Hae would bring me food every so often.
You look too young to be his mother.
You must be his aunt.
What? Aunt?
Every deity out there...
that exists above regardless of religion.
Please have mercy...
upon this poor soul.
(Jackpot Lottery)
Darn it.
(Prep School)
Okay.
What's this?
I saw you in the lectures.
You're taking the college entrance exam class too, right?
Isn't it so difficult retaking the college entrance exam?
But do you know what's even harder than that?
Eating rice without soup.
Aren't you thirsty?
Ramen broth is the best with box lunches.
What?
For every sip of broth, I'll take two pieces of egg rolls. Okay?
Fine, fine. I'll be fair. 1 to 1.
One piece of egg roll for each sip of broth. Deal?
Gosh.
These egg rolls are great!
These are really delicious. Does your family run a restaurant?
My bad.
Darn it.
- Disgusting jerk. - What?
Korean guys have no manners.
Hey. Why are you throwing that out?
Seriously. Are you crazy?
My name is Do Ra Hee.
Hey! Crazy Boy! Crazy Boy!
Eat up, Ji Sup.
That's right. You need your strength from now on.
Be strong, and get back on your feet. Eat up.
Thank you. I am eating enough already.
- You too, Mom and Dad. - Why are you giving this to me?
It's you two who should really eat and cheer up.
I smell perfume. Grandma's perfume.
What? What perfume?
I'm not wearing perfume.
How could they move without me?
Fine. Let's see how well you live.
Isn't that bulgogi?
I smell japchae and beef and radish soup too.
I'm hungry.
I'm starving.
Seriously.
Mother.
What happened?
Where have you been these days?
How have you been?
Hold on.
Here. Have some water.
You'll get sick.
Seriously.
If you have no shame, at least have a clue.
I'm so sick of her.
Have some soup, and take it easy.
Thanks, Suh Ra.
Well...
I'm not shameless.
I can't eat for free.
I'll help with the chores and go grocery shopping.
I'll take Hae Sol to and from kindergarten too.
Do you mean it?
It would be so great if you'd help.
It's only natural.
A family has to work together to overcome hard times like these.
Right?
Isn't that right?
Yes, of course. That's right.
That would be great. Starting tomorrow,
you take care of Hae Sol.
And come to the restaurant to help with deliveries too.
How can I make deliveries?
Yes, of course. I should.
I'll do anything you ask. Of course.
Of course. "Conscience is a man's compass."
It's not a compass, but a map.
Seriously. You are so ignorant. Goodness.
A compass or a map. They both guide you the same.
Furthermore,
you clearly use neither of them.
What?
Come with me.
Me?
Why did you want to talk outside?
This is my last warning as your son.
If you ever cause trouble again,
I'll disown you.
What trouble do you mean?
I can't do anything anymore.
Suh Ra's parents took us in without saying anything.
Don't be any more of a burden than you already are. Understand?
Did I say something?
She'll pay me for working at the restaurant though, right?
If you...
If you bother Hae Sol or Suh Ra ever again,
I will die first.
Fine. I get it.
As if people could die that easily.
(Kang In Wook, Chief Director of Management)
What's going on?
(Kang In Wook)
How could they do that?
What is it?
Please cancel In Wook's appointment.
Are you trying to control how I run my company now?
Our dear Jae Wook isn't dead yet.
His heart is still beating.
I'll make sure he wakes up...
and returns to the company.
So please...
Please wait just a bit more.
Your child is fighting for his life,
and all you think about is to send him back to the company?
Is your objective the company or Jae Wook?
Father.
Save Jae Wook first. The company comes after that.
That's what a real mom should do!
If Jae Wook dies,
you have no reason to remain in my house.
(Chief Director of Management, Kang In Wook)
Go ahead.
You seem to know why I'm here,
so I'll get to the point.
Resign from your position as the chief director.
That's what's right for you.
I thought a lot about it too.
You thought about it, and that's what you came up with?
It isn't right to steal your brother's position...
as soon as he falls ill as if you were waiting for it.
If you thought about the pain he suffered, you couldn't do this.
I thought only about Grandpa.
He's gotten significantly weaker than I thought.
You know that if he falls ill,
this company will falter. We have to prevent that.
So?
You insist on taking Jae Wook's place?
I'm sorry.
However, I can promise you this.
If Jae Wook wakes up,
I'll give him the chief director position without hesitation.
Can I trust you?
Yes. If Jae Wook recovers and returns to this office,
I will do so right away.
Here's the medicine you requested.
Take it after each meal.
- Thank you. - But...
you look pale.
- You should just see a doctor... - I'm fine. Just go...
Madam.
Are you going to eat all of that?
Isn't it too big for you to eat all by yourself?
I'll get in trouble if you get a tummy ache.
You can have this then.
Right? I'll eat it for you.
Why are they here?
Koo Mi Hong.
- Oh, gosh. - Stop right there!
- Oh, gosh. - Hey! Stop!
Grandma!
- Darn it. - Stop! Get her! Hey!
- Hey! Stop! - What is this?
Stop!
What?
What about Hae Sol?
Stop crying, Mother.
What about Hae Sol?
Hae Sol!
Have you seen a girl this tall?
Oh, no. Hae Sol!
Hae Sol!
Hae Sol.
Hae Sol!
Hae Sol. Oh, no.
Poor Hae Sol.
If you ever cause trouble again,
I'll disown you.
Mi Hong, you should just die.
Die.
What's the use in living like this?
You useless piece of trash.
All you do is cause trouble. You're just a nuisance.
- Hae Sol. - Hae Sol.
- Mommy. Daddy. - Hae Sol.
You must've been scared. I can imagine.
Mom. What happened?
Well, Mi Hong took Hae Sol to the market with her...
and ran away, leaving Hae Sol behind.
She ran into some creditors or something.
Luckily, one of our regulars recognized her...
as she was crying in the streets and brought her here.
That woman is utterly useless.
You must've been scared that Grandma disappeared.
It's okay.
Ji Sup.
Yes, Father.
What?
What about my mother?
I don't know what the rush was, but he brought in In Wook already.
It's as if...
they've all been waiting for Jae Wook to get sick.
Wait and see.
Once Jae Wook gets back up,
Father won't have another choice.
He'll give Gangin Group to him.
I'll make that happen.
Of course you will.
I feel so sorry to Hae Rim.
If not for the accident,
they'd be enjoying their honeymoon right now.
Ms. Wi.
Don't take this the wrong way.
- What... - If Jae Wook...
were to wake up tomorrow,
that would be the best thing for Hae Rim.
But it looks like he'll be there for a while.
I think...
we should call off the engagement for now.
Call it off?
I can't keep Hae Rim like that...
as Jae Wook's indefinite fiance.
Please understand how I feel...
as her father.
Yes, I understand.
Of course I understand.
Luckily, she didn't take that much.
They pumped her stomach.
They said she can leave...
once she's done with the IV,
so don't worry too much.
I'm sorry, Father.
Imagine how terrible she felt to have done such a thing.
Don't be too harsh on her when she wakes up.
Be nice to her, and bring her home.
Okay.
I'm sorry, Dad.
I keep making you worry.
Don't be silly.
I'll go home and make some porridge.
Chin up.
That poor thing.
Goodness.
Drop the act, and get up.
What's wrong with you?
If you really wanted to die, you should've taken a lethal dose.
You should've ended it for real.
What is this?
You're making it impossible for me to face my in-laws.
What did I do to deserve all this?
This is a hospital. What's wrong with you?
Fine!
I'm sorry. I'm sorry for not dying.
I'm sorry that I didn't die!
I'll just die right now!
- I'll just die right now! - Mother!
Why are you doing this? Please stop!
Let go! I'll die as you wish.
I'll die! I'll just die already!
Poor me.
Calling off the engagement?
Jae Wook isn't dead yet.
He isn't dead yet.
(The Secret of My Man)
Wait just a bit more.
I'll get you Gangin Group...
and Hae Rim back.
Jae Wook? It can't be.
I'm sorry, Suh Ra.
I'm sorry.
What are you trying to say, Mother?
I wish you'd be a little more careful.
What are you doing?
This is my final warning.
I never want to see you again. I don't know what I may do to you.
What are you people doing?
Call me if anything happens.
Let me meet your boss right now.
