(Episode 29)
Didn't you know that your wife was pregnant?
Sorry?
How could you neglect her in the beginning of her pregnancy?
Her uterine wall is weak already.
With fatigue and malnutrition, her health is a mess.
She seemed to have lost a lot of blood.
Did she have a miscarriage?
Luckily, she did not.
However, it's very possible,
so make sure she gets plenty of rest for the time being.
What a reckless woman.
How could she do errand work while she was pregnant?
I can't leave until her guardian comes.
She must be her daughter.
(Husband)
This must be her husband.
The number you have dialed is not in service.
How much did she drink?
She got drunk quickly because she drank on an empty stomach.
That isn't like her.
Thanks, Jae Wook.
- Show him to her room. - Yes, ma'am. Please come this way.
Okay.
Something must've happened.
Please prepare some tea for Jae Wook and me.
Okay, I will.
What happened?
Hae Rim got very drunk today.
I've worked here for over 10 years, but I've never seen this happen.
Please come down, and prepare some tea.
You could do that much.
The assemblyman is waiting for you in his study.
Please come down for some tea.
Yes, ma'am.
What?
Do I disgust you too?
True,
who could like a monster like me?
I find myself disgusting and sickening too.
Do you know what I did today?
- Must I? - Naturally.
Of course, you must know.
This is my first and last warning, so listen.
You shouldn't...
trust me.
I may stab you in the back at any time.
I'm willing to do anything in order to live...
as my parents' daughter.
If it'll mean I can live in this house,
I can betray In Wook 10 times over.
So get your act together if you don't want that happening to you.
Let me give you my first and last advice as well.
Hae Rim.
You should get your act together as well...
and don't trust me.
I may stick a sharper knife...
in your back, no,
right into your heart.
It'll probably be...
many times more painful than your knife.
So no matter what, don't trust me,
and get your act together...
Who are you to make a fool of me?
Who are you to turn me into this piece of garbage?
Do you know what I did to In Wook today?
Why won't you even let me feel guilty as I please? Why?
Jae Wook. Act like yourself, please.
Stop confusing me.
Be a jerk like the old Jae Wook!
That fits you the best.
Is this what you want?
Isn't this "like" Jae Wook?
You're still drunk.
You'll think more clearly once you get some sleep.
He's different.
He's different from Jae Wook.
She may act tough on the outside,
but she has many scars.
I think her pride was hurt...
when you called off the engagement.
I'm sorry.
I'll be blunt.
Did you say you couldn't marry her...
because of In Wook?
To be honest,
I can't say it isn't.
I thought so.
So, will you let her go?
No, sir. I'm waiting...
for her to make her choice.
You're her fiance, no matter what anyone says.
In Wook was like a brother to her...
on whom she could rely whenever she had a problem.
I know, sir.
She cut him off today on her own.
She's a smart girl. She never makes a foolish choice.
Trust me, and reach out to her.
I'll keep that in mind.
Suh Ra. Oh, my goodness, Suh Ra.
Oh, my goodness. What happened to you?
What happened to her?
- My gosh. - Keep it down. We're in a hospital.
How could I be quiet right now?
She walked out perfectly fine on her own two feet this morning.
What happened to her? Why is she lying in a hospital?
Wait. Oh, my gosh, look who's here.
The jjamppong place...
Aren't you the grandson of elderly man who is a regular...
at our restaurant?
Hello, ma'am. Are you...
her mother?
Oh, my gosh, yes.
Then did you...
bring our Suh Ra to the hospital?
My gosh. What a small world this is. My goodness.
I can't believe I'm seeing you here.
Are you the person...
who just called us?
Yes. It's nice to meet you.
- I'm Kang In Wook. - Hello.
But... What happened to her?
Did she lose the baby? Is that it?
Did she really?
Luckily, the baby's fine,
but they say it's too soon to relax because she lost blood.
Thank you so much. My gosh.
If you hadn't helped her,
she may have lost the baby.
Thank you so much.
That's right. I owe your grandfather so much already,
and now I owe his grandson as well.
- No, not at all. - Anyway,
how do you know our daughter Suh Ra?
I saw her by chance outside the house of someone I know.
It seemed like an emergency, so I brought her here right away.
That's right. I couldn't reach her husband,
so I couldn't contact him.
Well... It's late. You should go.
Your family must be worried.
Okay, then. I'll trust her with you and go.
Don't let her work for the time being.
It's her doctor's orders.
Thank you. We'll do that.
- Okay, then. - Thank you.
Her husband should run over first...
and be by her side in a situation like this.
He didn't even know she was carrying his baby.
That evil punk.
If he were going to go like that, at least don't get her pregnant.
Stop being like that.
Why talk about someone who's no longer here?
Gosh. This poor thing.
My gosh. The poor thing.
I had no choice.
Jin Hae Rim.
You've never lived your life how you wanted.
Not once.
This wasn't your choice either.
It isn't your fault.
You're mistaken.
Yes, he comforted me a few times after Jae Wook's accident.
But that must've confused him.
He threatened me ridiculously.
He used the fact that he took the fall for my medical malpractice,
and he tried to take over me.
So I had no choice but to date him.
I had no choice.
The exam is coming up, but my brain won't work.
I don't think I'll get into college.
If my family were rich, I'd just start a business.
You're lucky your family is rich.
Didn't you hear me say I'm living with my relatives?
It's because I feel bad for my aunt.
Life is tough for me too.
I fit in like oil in water.
Let's stop the serious talk.
Why aren't you eating?
Don't tell me you can't eat chicken feet.
What?
Do you think a man can't eat chicken feet?
Chew on it.
I picked one without athlete's foot.
Chew on it. Chew. Chew.
You call yourself a man?
He's utterly impossible.
Darn it.
Hi, Mom. What's up?
What? She did?
- Mommy! - Hae Sol.
Are you very sick?
You look like you lost weight.
I'm not sick at all.
I'm just a bit tired, that's all.
Whatever. You're as pale as a ghost.
Don't work for a while.
We won't starve her even if you don't make money.
It's okay. I'm fine.
You are not fine. Do you think your body is made of steel?
After what happened to Ji Sup,
you couldn't eat or sleep, and your mind and body are a mess.
How could your body handle working on top of that?
Quit working right now.
I'm not working just to make money.
Don't try so hard to do well.
You can just wing it at times.
Go lie down.
Hae Sol.
Go to bed with Mommy, okay?
Let's go in. Let's go.
- Good night. - You too.
But... Why I don't I see Dae Ra anywhere?
I think something's up?
Sung Hae hasn't come home for a few days,
and she's been in a cruddy mood.
She's like a ticking time bomb. One touch, and she'll blow.
You're a ticking time bomb to me.
Drop the nonsense and go study.
Your test is coming up. Don't be a busybody.
I'm not kidding.
I think Sung Hae completely turned his back on her...
after finding out she lied about being pregnant.
What if they end up breaking up?
Why you...
Hey, Sung Hae. Get out here right now!
You only took your clothes.
Take every item you have in my house!
Get out here. Come out while I'm being nice!
Sung Hae isn't in right now.
What? And how do you know that?
He said he's going to his mom's for a few days to clear his head.
Were you two that close?
So close that you tell each other where you're going?
Stop being so uncultured.
Shut it. You go around seducing married men.
How dare you bring up culture?
Watch your mouth. I have standards.
- I'm not desperate. - What? Desperate?
What's wrong with Sung Hae?
The rooms aren't soundproof here.
How could you do this here?
Do you think everyone can bum around thanks to their parents like you?
I can see why Sung Hae is sick of you.
What? Hey you!
What? He's sick of me?
What do you know? How dare you?
Are you insane? What are you doing?
- Let go of me! - Hey!
Let go!
What do you think you're doing?
- Honey. - Sung Hae.
You'll ruin your eyes.
Is Jae Wook home?
He'll be home soon. You should go to sleep.
The Jae Wook that came back to life...
Is he the Jae Wook that you and I once knew?
What do you mean?
I'm simply grateful that...
he woke up from his coma.
It's because he did something...
Jae Wook would never have done.
Sorry? Something he never would've done?
That rumor that our company was involved...
with the shopping mall scam...
Why is he digging that back up?
Jae Wook is doing that?
He must not have recovered yet.
Dr. Choi said it's too soon to relax as well.
Father. I'll look after Jae Wook.
I'll take care of him.
Ji Sup.
You've truly lost your mind.
I'm home.
You're home late.
Is Grandpa sleeping?
We need to talk.
Assemblyman Jin called.
You took Hae Rim home?
I had no choice. She was drunk.
Good.
The assemblyman is very thankful to you.
Do you have something else to say?
I'd like to change.
Don't do anything stupid.
Why are you digging up something that's been put to rest?
Why are you reinvestigating the scam where they sold...
the company's shopping mall?
Even the police dropped it. Why are you digging into it?
Is there a reason I can't?
You must want to use Jae Wook's position...
to pursue your personal vendetta, Ji Sup.
Why am I here today?
If my mother wasn't scammed,
I wouldn't be tortured...
being controlled day after day, living behind a mask.
So?
You gained Grandpa's suspicion to soothe your petty pain?
Do you really want to return to being the dead Han Ji Sup?
I may gain his suspicion now,
but he will...
have no choice but to accept me as Jae Wook.
I'm saying it isn't only about my personal vendetta.
What?
I think reporters...
are digging into the shopping mall scam already.
I,
Kang Jae Wook, will find the culprits first,
and hold them accountable,
and if the company must be accountable for anything,
it should take responsibility.
That will gain the chairman's trust...
and help us achieve our goal.
That's what I'm saying.
I'll be watching you.
If your personal interest takes the lead over our objective...
a single centimeter, no a single millimeter,
you'll have to return to being the dead Han Ji Sup.
Danger accompanies opportunity.
If we avoid danger out of fear,
we'll lose the opportunity as well.
If you let me close out this matter,
I'll do what you want, ma'am.
Not "ma'am," but "Mother."
Maybe you aren't Jae Wook yet.
Don't burn it into your brain.
Burn it into your heart. Your heart! Got it?
I'm sorry, Mother.
Okay.
You'll do what I want?
What could that be?
I'll rush...
marrying Hae Rim.
Are you trying to make a deal with me?
Yes.
I need an ambulance...
What were you doing until things got this far?
If it weren't for that man,
it could've been very dangerous.
Mommy's so very sorry.
Mommy will be extra careful from now on...
and protect you, so you don't get hurt.
I promise.
Hello, Director Park.
I'm sorry for coming in while you were out.
It's fine. My doors are always open.
This is enough for me. Would you like some tea?
I guess you really have changed after all.
You're drinking cheap vending machine coffee...
and coming to work this early.
But they say a person changes drastically only before they die.
You should be careful.
Okay. I guess I should...
for the sake of the people who worry about me.
But...
what brings you here first thing in the morning?
About the shopping mall scam that flipped the company...
upside down not long ago...
Rumor has it...
you've been studying the documents very carefully.
I guess the rumors are true.
You're correct.
I'm reviewing them.
The directors are very concerned.
It's nothing good.
There's no need to dig up the incident...
where scammers used our company's name...
and drag it through the mud for no reason whatsoever.
If...
that harms the company in any way,
the directors will not be pleased.
Can you handle it?
Why?
Will you push me out...
as you did Kang In Wook?
We never pushed him out.
In Wook left on his own.
Is that right?
Don't worry.
Someone else will be pushed out.
Someone else?
It's too soon to share. You'll have to wait.
Regardless,
I'm sure I've relayed the directors' position,
so I'll go now.
Oh Kwang Chul in product development...
I heard he bought quite a bit of property in the Philippines.
Did you know that?
Well, you're his uncle,
so I guess so.
His wife and children live in the Philippines,
so it's possible.
You're right. However,
the CEO of Golden Development, which pulled the scam...
using Gangin Construction's name...
Do you know where he fled to?
Jae Wook.
Know who made you chief director before messing with me.
I pushed for you when you weren't qualified.
How dare you threaten me?
And you used to be buddies with Kwang Chul. And now,
the Philippines what?
Sure. Try me.
Let's see who gets hurt.
I'm prepared.
Kang Jae Wook.
How far are you involved with Oh Kwang Chul?
How did it go, Uncle?
What did Jae Wook say? Will he bury it?
You crazy fool.
Why did you get involved with those scammers in the first place?
He isn't the Jae Wook we knew.
Look for something we can use on him just in case.
Whether it's women, money, find something.
Okay.
Wait a little longer.
I'll catch those rats that did this to us...
and make them pay for what they've done.
Hello. We meet again.
Are you here about Hae Rim's necklace incident?
Yes. I just can't drop it like this.
I'm sorry for dropping in like this.
There's no need to apologize.
I hope it gets resolved well.
I'm surprised. I thought you'd keep denying it.
Did you come to apologize?
No. I came to clear my name.
I have to prove my innocence, at least for the baby in my womb.
If you're pregnant, focus on taking care of your fetus.
How dare you cause a scene here?
Get out before I press charges for trespassing.
There's no need. I'll call the police myself.
I'm calling about a theft.
What do you think you're doing?
I want to call the police to under the truth. Is that a problem?
I said to get out.
Get out. Right now.
Stop it, Ha Rim!
Didn't you hear her? She's pregnant.
Mom.
I'm sorry. Please let me apologize on her behalf.
Mom.
She should be apologizing to me, not the other way around.
No. I did nothing to apologize for.
I didn't do anything my baby would be ashamed of.
Just tell the truth, why don't you?
Admit you wanted to kill my pride.
- What? - Isn't that what you were after...
when you called me to do housework for the day,
made me wash blankets and curtains that didn't need washing,
clean this spotless house,
and made me cook food you had no intention of eating?
And then you framed me for stealing.
She's right. I thought it was strange that you randomly...
sent the housekeeper out.
You stay out of it.
What happened? Is what she said true?
No. Don't believe a word she says.
Is that what you think of me?
Why would I frame a nobody like her of such an absurd thing?
This woman stole from me.
She stole from someone while carrying a baby within her.
Watch what you say.
Are you insane? You're shameless.
That's enough!
Mom.
Okay. I believe you are innocent.
I vote for you too.
No. I won't accept this.
I'm sorry.
Let me apologize on her behalf.
No, don't be. Thank you for believing me.
I'm sorry for causing a scene.
Your husband isn't even around.
Do you plan to have the baby all by yourself?
Of course. It's a gift that my husband left me.
I'll raise it well.
You look like you're still young.
How old are you?
I'm 29.
I already have a five-year-old.
I see.
I'll go now.
I'm sorry for troubling you.
- Take care of your health. - I will.
Thank you.
She's still so young. The poor thing.
Even having money causes stress.
Should I invest it all in Tears of Divinity?
Or should I invest in the Arabian gold mine?
I'm so worried.
Mr. Ki?
Come this way. It's okay. Come here.
- Here. - But...
- Sit here. - This way.
It's okay.
There's no need to be uncomfortable.
There are only women in here.
There are many men in here too, if you look.
You can detox in the hot rooms, relax, chat,
and eat good food.
It's very therapeutic.
Okay. Let's make him the sheep head first.
It's a must for these spas.
Come here.
Mr. Ki. You look super cute.
He looks so cute.
What a great life he has.
He goes to the spa with women from the neighborhood.
- Right? - That's awesome.
- Really? - Totally.
But is it necessary to do it here?
Why not? It's fun.
He looks so good with it.
Isn't he so super cute?
I should've called right away yesterday. Sorry.
I was in no condition to call.
Is that all you're sorry for?
My dad was too angry yesterday.
I wasn't myself.
I've never seen him that angry at me before.
You too.
I said I'd talk to my dad when the time is right.
How could you tell him that you like me?
What would that make me?
Am I someone...
you can destroy if it helps you?
How could you say that?
If I didn't say that yesterday,
you never would've told him.
You would've kept me hanging...
and betrayed me without hesitation when the moment came.
I told you, I had no choice because of my dad.
You said you knew how I felt.
Can't you understand me?
Understand? Do you have that little respect for me?
That's not it.
You know what my position is in my family.
If I fall out of my dad's favor too, I'm finished.
I have nowhere left to go.
I told you not to lie to yourself.
But you...
keep lying to yourself and destroying yourself.
If I stay by your side,
you'll keep becoming a monster.
You should just leave me instead.
- In Wook. - Leave me,
and go back to being the honest and cheerful person you were.
That's the last gift...
I can give you.
In Wook.
Stop right there!
- Hello, Dad. - Where are you?
I'm shopping at a department store.
Come out with Jae Wook for dinner.
Let's have dinner together.
I'll do that. Okay, Dad.
In Wook! You said you'd wait for me.
You're the one who acted too rashly!
How could you throw this heavy burden onto me?
How could you do this to me?
I said I didn't want to get thrown away anymore.
In Wook.
In Wook!
I, Kang Jae Wook,
won't abandon you.
(The Secret of My Man)
Hey. Mister. Mister.
What crazy talk is that?
What does Hae Rim really want?
And what do you want?
Don't let her keep you hanging, and don't be clingy.
End it cleanly.
You may have to...
step down from your position as In Wook did.
I have no regrets.
You talked big, but you...
made a mess of everything.
Could you tell me what your alibi is...
for after you left Yang Mi Ryung?
So, that day...
