Okay.
From now on, I'll report to you before I go anywhere.
Then let's start the meeting.
What are you doing? Please sit down.
Here.
Please take a look at these materials first.
I came up with a few ideas.
Instead of making the sauce in a liquid form,
what do you think about solidifying it?
I think that's a good...
What do you think, Ms. Hong?
We already considered doing that once.
Four years ago, when we were trying to launch cold noodles,
we thought about solidifying the sauce for the broth.
But the unit cost of production was too high, so we gave up.
You must've thought your idea was an innovative one,
but we already tried everything.
I see.
But the broth for cold noodles...
and the broth for Glasswort Instant Noodles are different.
Glasswort Instant Noodles consists of glasswort extract and powder.
Since it contains powder, I think it'll be easy to solidify it.
You're right. The mixture of the powder and extract will make it...
easier for the sauce to become solid.
I think we could talk about this with the production team.
Da Jung, please get me the materials on the broth for cold noodles.
Mr. Kim, please discuss this with the production team.
- Okay. - Okay.
Ms. Hong, please write up a list of glasswort farms...
and make sure to look for the best ones.
It's the main ingredient of the broth,
so I'll need to go to the farms myself and check their quality.
Okay, that will be the end of our meeting.
Solidified sauce?
Yes. Sauce in liquid form is heavy,
and it's larger in size. So it's hard to store them,
and the cost of transport will be expensive.
If we make solidified sauce, we'll need less storage space.
That will help us save a lot of money.
We need to buy a whole new production line for that,
so it'll cost us some money at first.
But once we build that system and systemize it,
we'll be able to use it for other products in the future as well.
I think it'll be efficient for us in the long run.
I'll look into it positively.
Okay. Then I'll try making a sample of the solidified sauce...
and test it out.
Okay.
Ms. Hong and I will look for glasswort farms.
You should focus on developing the solidified sauce.
Okay, I will.
You're adapting very quickly.
You seem like you've been working here for several years.
We don't have much time until the launch date.
Let's do our best to make it in time.
Okay, I'll do my best to make it work.
I wanted to see you because I really couldn't let go of this.
How in the world are you handling things?
You got caught faking your injury,
so Dal Nim became the person in charge of the new product?
You failed to stop the advertisement.
You just ended up helping her out.
I'm sorry, Ms. Yoon.
You and I have a lot more to work on together,
but how will I be able to trust you with anything now?
I know you're disappointed in me,
but I'm sure Dal Nim's head is up in the clouds...
for having won everything right now.
I'll use this chance to bring her down no matter what.
Mr. Hyun, it's me.
How is Dal Nim doing at work?
I'm worried that Se Na might not cooperate with her.
Don't worry.
Dal Nim's doing better than you think.
She's studying how to develop solidified sauce.
I feel like it'll do really well if she succeeds.
Solidified sauce?
That's a great idea.
She needs to succeed,
so that I can boast to the owner of the instant noodle restaurant.
"The instant noodle restaurant"?
Are you talking...
about that place that sells Couple's Instant Noodles?
Yes. He's the one who gave Dal Nim his recipe for glasswort extract.
How did she get that from him?
He was so stubborn and didn't even let me talk about it.
I asked him if he could tell me his recipe,
but he turned me down right away.
It's a long story though.
He recently received surgery, so he's hospitalized right now.
How's it going?
I'm trying my best to look for her,
but I haven't been able to get anything.
Try to hurry up.
Try giving me a large sum of money at once.
Then I'll even make a baby for you if I need to.
Cut the nonsense, and make sure you find her.
I told you. You'll become rich if you find her.
What's all this fuss about? Whose child is it anyway?
You don't need to know that. We don't have much time.
- Hurry up and look for her. - I'm hungry.
My gosh, just go and find her.
- Okay. - Go on.
Look at him trying to be lazy.
Your Honor, I'd like to call out Mr. Jo Byung Soo,
the witness of the incident.
That person is...
Excuse me. Wait!
Who are you?
Didn't you testify as the witness in court four years ago?
Who are you?
I'm Choi Sun Ho.
Wasn't he the fiance of the woman who died?
I'd like to ask you a few things about the case.
Can you spare me some time?
I think you have the wrong person. That wasn't me.
Where do I take the bus?
Hey! Wait!
Hey!
Here's the list of glasswort farms.
I heard you and I are going to look into the farms together.
What are you thinking about?
It's nothing.
I have something to ask you.
It's about that witness who testified in court four years ago.
I saw him at the restaurant.
What witness?
What are you talking about?
His name is Jo Byung Soo.
He seemed to be meeting Ms. Ma.
Why would my mom meet him?
Why would she meet someone she doesn't even know?
Are you sure you weren't mistaken?
Do you not know who Jo Byung Soo is?
How would I know him?
I've never even seen his face,
and this is the first time I've ever heard of his name.
I'm sure you were mistaken.
No, I'm sure it was him.
I tried talking to him, but he ran away.
If you and your mother both don't know him,
why would he have gone there? Isn't it a bit weird?
Are you doubting me and my mother again?
No, that's not it.
This is exactly...
why I've become more sensitive towards Dal Nim.
Let me make this clear.
That person has nothing to do with me and my family.
And if it really was him who came to the restaurant,
I'm sure he just came to eat.
Our restaurant's famous for its delicious food.
He could've just gone there after reading good reviews.
Don't you agree?
We don't have time for this right now.
I don't understand...
why we have to keep fighting about these kind of things.
I want to succeed in making the new product.
I want to work hard,
so that I can recover my pride.
I want to be acknowledged for my competence again.
You're the one who told me...
to focus on the new project.
Isn't that why you wanted to postpone the family meeting?
We can't even be sure that we'll succeed or not,
but if you focus on other things,
things will turn out worse.
I've contacted a glasswort farm.
We have to go now.
Okay, let's go.
Sun Ho, I think I left the meeting materials in my seat.
Please wait for me here.
Okay, don't take too long.
Hello.
Long time no see. What are you doing here?
- I have an appointment here. - I see.
How's the development of Well Being Instant Noodles going?
It's going pretty well.
I guess our products will be competing against each other.
We're getting ready for the battle.
I look forward to the competition.
Bye then.
Sun Ho, I'm sorry for making you wait.
We'll be late. Let's go.
Okay.
What's wrong?
It's nothing.
- Where's your hometown? - I said it's Mokpo.
- Do you have any siblings? - I'm the only child.
Do you live with your parents?
No, they both passed away.
Then do you live alone? You must be lonely.
- Where do you live? - I go with Dal Nim...
With Dal Nim? Go on.
I take the subway home with Dal Nim.
Where do you live? How long does it take?
Why do you have so many questions?
I haven't gotten interrogated in so long. It feels upsetting.
What are you talking about?
I'm only asking as your work colleague.
But what do you mean "you haven't gotten interrogated in so long"?
I'm just saying it's been a while...
since someone asked me so many questions about my background.
Stop being interested in me. You're not my type.
Do you like men with muscles?
- No. - Do you like smart and rich men?
I know my place, so I don't ask for that much.
I just want a guy who's fairly well off,
who only has affection for me. Also, kind and diligent.
Do you understand that you're not the one?
I don't think I'm not the one.
My gosh, what's this nonsense?
Why did she order me to come and go?
I thought you had an appointment. Why are you back so early?
I went to the head office because Ms. Hong wanted to see me,
but she said something urgent came up.
So I just had to come back.
- Why did she call you there? - I have no idea.
Honey, come out and drink tea.
Honey, honey.
Let's just practice dancing one song.
Have you still not given up on dancing?
My gosh, it's the wedding of my only son,
and I want to perform to celebrate the happy occasion.
I don't understand why my mom won't let me do it.
Didn't you hear what Mother said?
You're the groom's father. You can't make a fool out of yourself.
Just give up before she beats you up again.
Don't be like this. Just be my dance partner for just one song.
I can't tango by myself.
I'm very stiff, so I can't dance.
Honey. Just one song. Come on, honey.
Honey, come on.
- Come on. Just one song. - My gosh.
- Honey, please help me out. - What's going on?
Ruby, come here.
- Please be my dance partner. - What are you doing?
Please dance one song with me. Do it for your nephew.
Haven't you given up on the performance yet?
Come on. Just one song. Here, watch this.
You just have to do what I tell you to.
Loosen up your body and sway side to side like this.
Okay, here we go.
My gosh, what's wrong with you?
I'm an actress.
Don't try to embarrass me.
Gosh, my arms hurt.
Se Kang.
Don't do this, Ko Bong.
Why are you trying to dance with a man? Go away.
- But... - My gosh.
Why isn't anyone being cooperative?
My gosh, Mom must be...
My goodness gracious.
Mom, that hurts.
You deserved it.
You ask for your own beating.
I'm home.
Look at him.
He's been working hard at work until now,
but you're just busy at dancing when you're the CEO.
Sun Ho does well without me.
I can't believe you.
You should go upstairs and take some rest.
Okay.
What should I do?
Mom, please help me out just once.
What? What did you say? Are you crazy?
- Mom. - You punk. Stop right there!
Mother, please calm down.
My goodness, Mother. You should try stopping her.
- Mother, calm down! - How can I calm down?
What? Did Sun Ho see Jo Byung Soo?
That stupid fool is driving me crazy.
I should call him right now.
Mom, stop it.
It's no use crying over spilt milk, and you'll only ruin your health.
Sun Ho is suspicious of you and Jo Byung Soo.
Plus, he might even tell Jae Wook and Dal Nim about him.
You're right. It's only a matter of time...
before Jae Wook and Dal Nim find out about him.
If Dal Nim hears about this,
she'll try her best to look for Jo Byung Soo.
I think we should send him abroad for a while.
Do you think he'll willingly go?
He'll do anything for money.
I'm using all the money I got from Yi Ran on him.
Then how are we going to find Yi Ran's daughter?
We can ask a detective agency to look for her.
I see.
More importantly, how are things going with the new product?
I said I'm going to bring her down.
Dal Nim will be ruined in just a couple of days.
Here. Give these a read.
They're materials on the glasswort farms I visited yesterday.
I'm going to go visit a few more farms tomorrow.
Good work.
Do you need me to do anything else?
You can always ask me for help.
Why are you looking at me that way?
It's awkward to see you be so kind.
We need to succeed in making the new product.
I know it's an important project to you,
but it's also very important to me.
You know who I am.
Very soon I'm going to become the daughter-in-law of Choigo Foods.
The new product needs to succeed...
in order for Director Choi's position to strengthen.
I've analyzed how we could succeed in making Glasswork Instant Noodles.
In order to make solidified sauce,
we need to add more powder.
But that could make the extract lose its taste and deep flavor.
I think it'd be a good idea...
to make a few different samples by using different ratios...
of glasswort powder and extract.
Okay. Let's try making the samples together. Let's go.
What? They were so cold to each other yesterday.
Why are they suddenly being so friendly now?
My gosh.
Why are you so busy? You didn't even notice me coming in.
When did you get here? I'm glad you're here.
Honey, come here and help me put these in the box.
Why are there so many?
My fan ordered a lot of products,
so I'm busy packing them right now.
Who's the fan? That fan's buying an awful lot of cosmetics.
He runs a small business.
You know him too. He's my first fan ever.
What? Are you talking about that guy who got divorced?
You're talking about that guy who invited himself to our wedding,
and gave us a huge sum of money to congratulate us, right?
Are you still keeping in touch with him?
He's someone who even made a fan club for me...
back when I used to be an unknown actress.
He's just ordering these as a fan.
Why are you being so sensitive?
- Are you jealous? - What are you talking about?
Why is he buying so many women's cosmetics?
Gosh, these are for his employees at work.
Come here and help me put these in the box.
The delivery guy will be here soon. Hurry up.
I think we should use less than 40 percent of glasswort powder.
I think so too.
If it exceeds 40 percent, it seems to lose its deep flavor.
Since we're using less amount of glasswort extract,
we should try condensing it so that it becomes highly concentrated.
Okay, that's a good idea.
You guys are working so hard.
I brought you some late-night snacks.
- Thank you. - Thank you, sir.
Hello.
- Chef Jung. - I came to cheer you up.
I'm sorry if I've disturbed you.
No, we were just about to take a break and eat a late-night snack.
What's that?
I made some late-night snacks for you guys.
This is incredible.
My gosh, you're such a great cook.
I'm sorry, but I think I'm going to eat this instead of yours.
I feel like I've lost a game that never even started.
Let's all sit down.
How's everything going?
Isn't it obvious?
We're all working overtime.
Eat this and cheer up.
- Bye, then. - Be careful on your way back.
Hey.
I heard you got a ring from Jae Wook.
- What? - Don't get mistaken.
Ms. Yoon will never let the two of you see each other.
If you don't intend on separating their relationship,
you should just give up on Jae Wook.
You'll only end up getting hurt.
I have no other intentions.
I'm saying this because I'm worried about you.
How's Dal Nim doing?
Se Na's helping her out with the new project.
So things are going pretty well.
I'll update you on the specifics during the directors' meeting.
I'm glad to hear that Se Na's helping her out.
I was worried that she might be harsh on her.
My gosh.
Se Na's not the type to do such a thing.
Se Na always wants the best for Sun Ho...
and Choigo Foods.
If the new product succeeds,
that will benefit the company and Sun Ho.
Why would the future daughter-in-law...
of Choigo Foods do anything to harm this company?
She's right.
Se Na cares and loves Sun Ho and the company so much.
My gosh, Ko Bong.
She's going to be your daughter-in-law soon.
But you seem to know nothing about her.
My gosh.
I just said one thing wrong, and they're attacking me like cats.
I have to read over some materials, so I'm going to go upstairs now.
Okay.
You should be careful about what you say in front of Se Na.
She'll feel upset if you ever say this kind of thing to her. Okay?
Okay. I'll be careful.
Here's the result of the solidified sauce sample test.
We still need to make a few changes to the percentage of glasswort.
But the result itself wasn't so bad.
We'll try to figure out the adequate percentage of glasswort.
By the way...
Why? Do you have something to say to me?
Do you remember the witness...
who testified in court four years ago?
His name's Jo Byung Soo.
Yes, of course. I remember him.
But why are you asking me about him all of a sudden?
I think I saw him a few days ago at the restaurant.
Are you sure it was him?
I'm not completely sure,
but it seemed like he was there to meet Ms. Ma.
I also recently saw him meet Ms. Ma in front of the restaurant.
I wasn't sure if it was him back then.
But if you definitely saw him too...
I'll make a short trip to the restaurant.
Why do you suddenly want me to go abroad?
Do you really not know why?
You met Director Choi.
I didn't say anything to him. I ran away as quickly as I could.
That's even more suspicious. Why would you run away?
I was too flustered.
Director Choi is suspicious of us.
You should lay low before you get caught.
Did you bring my money?
This is the last time I'll ever see your face.
Okay.
But this can't be the end, Ms. Ma.
I'm going to call you again when I run out of money.
You can call me, but don't ever come look for me at the restaurant.
Go far away so that no one will be able to find you.
Then what about that child you wanted me to find?
I'm going to ask your friend at the detective agency to look for her.
So don't ever come here again.
No. Just don't even think about coming back to Korea.
- Okay? - Okay.
This is for the better.
I should use this money to go see my son.
Hello? I'd like to reserve a plane ticket.
Is there a flight to the Philippines tomorrow?
No, I want a one-way ticket.
No, wait. I'll call you back a little later.
Wait a minute. She never wants me to come back?
Does that mean I have to be on the run forever?
What if she doesn't pick up my calls after I leave?
I can't even speak English, so I won't be able to last long.
What if my son doesn't remember me because it's been so long?
My wife already got sick of me ages ago,
so I'm sure she's not going to welcome me with open arms.
What should I do?
My gosh, what should I do?
You have a guest waiting for you.
"A guest"?
Why are you so surprised?
You gave me your business card and said you wanted to meet me.
But you ran away. How did you find this place?
I looked up the address on your name card.
I was in a hurry, so I couldn't remember who you were.
I owe people some money, so I thought you were a loan shark.
I asked you about the trial.
I'm sure you knew that I wasn't a loan shark.
Oh, that. Well, I do remember...
seeing you in court.
But I thought you were on the culprit's side.
Later on, I figured out that I was wrong.
That's why I came here.
More importantly, I'm thinking about starting my own business.
And I heard your company's franchise business is doing well.
So I was wondering if I could start one myself.
Oh, really?
Then would you like to take a look at the restaurant?
What are you doing here? Were you waiting for me?
I have something to ask you.
Why did you meet Jo Byung Soo?
How do you know him?
Who's Jo Byung Soo?
I don't know who you're talking about.
Don't lie to me.
Director Choi and I both saw you meeting him.
You met him in front of the restaurant.
What did you ask him to do?
What are you talking about?
What did I do to hear this from you?
Did you pay him, and make him make a false testimony?
What did you say?
If you keep talking nonsense, I'm going to sue you for calumny.
Do you have proof to show that I paid him to do such a thing?
I don't know what he looks like,
and I've never even heard of his name before.
Are you going to deny that you know him even after looking at this?
I know you met him.
Dal Nim, hurry up and come outside.
This is the head restaurant. You should look around.
What are you doing here?
You are...
You're the person whom I testified against, right?
You must've gotten out.
Do you work here?
My gosh, the world is so tiny.
What a huge coincidence.
What's he doing here?
Ms. Ma, please say hello.
Oh, hello.
Who are you?
He wants to open up a franchise.
So I brought him to show him around.
Oh, I see. Hello.
- It's nice to meet you. - Hey.
I know you already knew about everything.
You already knew that me and Ms. Ma would be here, didn't you?
I don't quite understand.
I know you're already acquainted with Ms. Ma Yoo Kyung.
What did you two talk about?
What? Who are you talking about?
I just met her today.
Ma'am, do you know me?
No, I don't know you.
Who is he? Why are you doing this?
Stop causing a fuss. Let's just talk outside.
Why?
Are you scared that people might find out?
I'm sure you also want to know why...
he came here.
Don't lie to me, and tell me the truth.
How do you know Ms. Ma?
What kind of nonsense are you talking about?
I really don't understand a word you're saying right now.
I once came here to eat.
Then I asked a woman for help because I got lost.
But I didn't know that she would turn out to be the owner.
Do you expect me to believe that?
Whether you believe it or not is up to you.
I'm just telling you the truth.
Are you trying to lie again,
just like how you lied in court?
What are you talking about?
I testified only what I saw.
I never lied.
Did you really see me four years ago...
at the summer house?
I'm definitely sure it was you.
I have very good eyes.
I swear on my parents.
I never lied.
I just testified what my eyes witnessed.
Are you sure no one paid you?
My gosh, what are you talking about?
I might end up in prison...
if I make a false testimony. Why would I ever do such a thing?
Try being logical.
If I had something to hide, I'd try to stay out of sight.
Why would I go to Director Choi myself?
Don't you agree?
Anyway, how much will it cost for me to open this restaurant?
How are the sales? Do you make good money?
I'll explain to you more specifically in my office.
Follow me.
What happened?
Why did you bring him here?
I'm sorry to shock you.
He suddenly came to my office to see me.
Seeing that he came here himself,
he must be prepared to do worse.
That's why I brought him here. I wanted to see...
how Ms. Ma would react to him.
Hi, Mr. Jang. Right now?
Okay, I'll be right there.
I have to go to the office now.
- I'll see you later at the meeting. - Okay.
You thick-faced jerk. How dare you come here again?
You're supposed to be on a plane. What are you doing here?
I thought about it and realized that I've been hiding for so long now.
Why do I need to hide again?
Even the real culprit's living a great life.
So why do I need to be the one that needs to hide?
You better shut that mouth.
My gosh, I can't believe Dal Nim and Sun Ho found out about you.
Did you go to Sun Ho yourself?
I can't be on the run forever.
You're doing this to get more money off of me, aren't you?
I need to be out in the open for you to treat me with respect.
You better treat me well from now on.
What a great way to use that brain of yours.
He showed up before us himself.
So I don't think we'll be able to get anything from him.
It's as if he wants us to try him.
We must make him tell us his secrets.
He's Jo Byung Soo.
He looks perfectly normal. What a jerk.
- Where are you going? - I need to hit on him.
You're not done working.
He'll come here often anyway.
Okay. Leave everything to me.
Why do you keep ordering me to come and go?
What did you talk about with Sun Ho?
Is that really all you said to him?
Do you think Dal Nim and Sun Ho would stay still if they found out?
He's a smart one,
so he'll never do anything to harm himself.
I already told them that I don't know you. What are they going to do?
They won't be able to find anything out if we keep our mouths shut.
It's not like they can read our minds. Aren't I correct?
My gosh, I feel alive now.
No one's going to tell me off for walking out in the open.
This is really going to be the last time.
If you ever try to fool us again, you should know that...
- your son isn't going to be safe. - My gosh.
Leave my son out of this.
Don't you think you're being too harsh?
That's why I'm telling you to watch out.
This is my last warning.
Since things turned out this way,
just keep looking for that lost child.
Okay.
But who is she? Why are you so obsessed with finding her?
I said, you don't need to know.
It's so boring without you at the restaurant.
How were things at work?
Se Na's being cooperative, so things are going pretty well.
But I don't know what she's planning behind my back.
I'm sure she has something up her sleeve.
I don't think I should fall for her kindness.
By the way, when I went to Ms. Ma's place a few days back,
I saw a list of orphanages on top of her vanity table.
"Orphanages"?
I was in a hurry to come out, so I didn't get to see specifically.
But I remember that it was a long list of orphanages.
Our restaurant is sponsoring an orphanage at the moment.
I wonder if they're looking into sponsoring more orphanages.
Anyway, did you find anything else, such as bracelets?
That's probably in Se Na's room.
I'll look for a reason to go to their house again.
When I do, I'll search Se Na's room.
Dal Nim, I'm so tired. Let's go to sleep now.
You should sleep first. I need to read over some materials.
- Then I'm going to sleep first. - Okay.
Dal Nim's making us work so hard.
I know. But I think she's more competent than I thought she'd be.
I agree.
Her idea on solidifying the sauce for the broth...
shows me that she's not inexperienced.
But why are you carrying so many materials?
Did you even look up the company newsletter?
Dal Nim wanted me to look up every single material I could find.
The seminar we carried out four years ago...
was dealt with in our company newsletter.
I found this in the reference room.
What if Ms. Hong loses her position to Dal Nim?
No way.
I'm sorry, Da Jung.
- I'll pick them up. - No, I'll help you.
(Choigo Foods Company Newsletter)
Ms. Hong, what's wrong?
Do you feel sick?
No.
Ms. Hong, I need that.
Would it be okay if I take a look at this first?
What?
Why would you want to take a look at it first?
(Sweet Enemy)
We're in trouble. Dal Nim saw this.
Have you gone mad?
My goodness.
Do you have an original photo of this?
- Here it is. - Did you find it?
