(Episode 117)
What's that supposed to mean?
Are you really getting swayed?
You're already suspicious of me right now.
So no matter what I say to you,
you'll only think of it as an excuse.
So I don't want to say anything.
I'll go with you.
Ye Eun, you're here.
Thank you. Thank you.
Director Min, you're here too.
- Hello. - Ye Eun.
I'm really sorry for asking you to come all the way here.
You must be going through a lot because of Jin Sup.
I can't be going through...
more than Jin Sup right here who's already destined to die.
I called because he kept calling for you...
even when he was unconscious.
Director Min, I'm sorry.
Ye Eun, once Jin Sup wakes up,
you should sternly tell him to stop having feelings for you.
I know he's my precious son,
but I don't want you to sacrifice yourself because of Jin Sup anymore.
Just because he is sick and is going to die...
doesn't mean he's free from his sins.
Okay.
Ye Eun. Ye Eun.
Jin Sup, are you awake?
Ye Eun's here.
Ye Eun's finally here. You've been asking for her.
It's really Ye Eun.
You should've told me that you were going to come.
I'm probably a mess right now.
Lily.
I don't want to miss out on a great opportunity like that.
I can't believe we're going to form a band...
and go on a world tour. I'm already so excited.
I'll call you as soon as everything's ready.
I feel so happy...
that you're here.
Ye Eun.
I don't have much time since I'll be dying soon.
I know I shouldn't be saying this in front of Hyung Joo.
But can you stay by my side until I die?
What?
If you know that's out of line, then don't say it.
How can you brazenly ask her to stay by your side?
I'll be living two months at most.
Can't you yield her to me for just two months?
It's my last wish. Can't you do that for me?
Ye Eun, I know I should be ashamed to ask you this.
But can you please grant Jin Sup...
his last wish?
You guys are as bad as Jin Sup.
Do you think of Ye Eun as a pushover?
You forced Ye Eun...
to get a divorce even when she cried and begged.
But now, you're asking her to take care of Jin Sup since he's sick?
How are you all so brazen and selfish?
Like Mr. Lee said,
just because he's dying doesn't mean he's free from his sins.
I won't let her do it.
I don't care if Jin Sup's going to die.
I'm never going to let my girlfriend...
take care of her ex-husband.
Ye Eun.
Can you please do me a favor?
If you refuse to stay by my side, I'm not going to get treated.
I'm just going to die here.
Ye Eun, why can't you say "No"?
He's a selfish jerk who only cares about no one but himself.
So why can't you say "No" to him?
Ye Eun.
It's my last wish.
You're going to do it for me, right?
Let's go. Don't even listen to him.
Do you remember what you said to me when we broke up?
You said I'm someone you don't want to give to anyone else,
but you also said you don't want to have me either.
You slapped me in front of Hwa Young...
and asked me why I hit her when she had done nothing wrong.
Even after we got divorced, you mocked me...
regarding my infertility. Do you not remember that?
- Ye Eun, that was... - Two things came to my mind...
when I heard about your illness.
"You jerk."
"You're getting punished."
"You should've died a long time ago." That was my first thought.
But I also felt a little sorry that you're going to die soon.
Yes.
Can... Can you just keep feeling sorry for me?
Can you please pity me...
so that you can forget about all the bad things...
- I once did to you? - No.
I get reminded of every single thing you said and did to me...
every time I see you.
The way you mistreated me like I was nothing but trash...
is still very clear to me in my memory.
Murdering someone doesn't always have to involve stabbing.
You can also murder someone...
by hurting that person with your words and actions.
To me, you're already a murderer.
I'm sorry.
I don't know why I did all those things to you.
I know I shouldn't have.
I really don't know why...
Please stop harassing me.
If you really loved me,
and if you feel sorry for what you did,
don't let Hwa Young show up before me again.
I hate her as much as I hate you.
Ye Eun.
I'm sorry.
I'm having trouble taking care of my own self right now.
No.
You did a good job.
You can't let Jin Sup cause you trouble...
until the moment he dies.
He'll soon understand...
that he can't keep doing this to you.
- We'll be off now. - Okay.
I'm sorry.
I won't ever ask Ye Eun...
to do anything like this again.
You must be going through a lot.
You're already busy with work,
but Jin Sup keeps making things worse.
I want to let go of everything...
and go somewhere far away.
Are you saying you want to run away again?
I think...
I'm sick and tired of Jin Sup...
and Hwa Young who linger around me all the time.
You don't look so well.
You should go home and rest.
I'm sorry, but I want to go home by myself.
I'll take you home.
I want to go home by myself today.
Stop bothering Ye Eun.
That's what's best for her.
You should man up and leave a good impression.
Just focus on getting the treatment so that you can get discharged.
I don't...
resent her.
I have no right to resent her.
The fact that I betrayed and abandoned her...
even when she did nothing wrong kept bothering me.
So I just wanted to be nice to her before I died.
That's why I asked her to stay by my side.
But I think I should've thought things through.
You're awake.
Who brought me to a hospital?
I told you that I hate hospitals.
You're trying to lock me up in a mental hospital, aren't you?
- Stop being so obstinate. - Then why am I here?
Who gave you permission to hospitalize me?
I'm going to leave. I'm going to leave the hospital.
Do you have a place to go?
I don't care. I'm never going to see you guys again.
Jae Woong's going to give you money.
He's going to give you money...
and make you sign a memorandum saying you'll never show up...
before Jin Hee ever again.
I don't care where you live.
Just make sure Jin Hee never hears of anything bad.
You should've done that earlier.
Are you sure...
you can live without seeing Jin Hee for the rest of your life?
Why wouldn't I be able to do that?
I left her as soon as she was born and didn't see her until now.
That may be true,
but I know you came because you missed her.
And you're telling me that you're ready...
to say goodbye to her once more and never see her again?
I know you didn't come to Korea because of money.
I also know that you didn't come to make a comeback as an actress.
You only came here...
because you wanted to see Jin Hee.
What do you know?
You can leave with the money if you want.
But I really hope you don't give up your right and obligation...
as Jin Hee's mother.
You should finish your IV before you get discharged.
Your organs have become weak due to all the alcohol you drank,
so I heard you might collapse again.
My right and obligation as a mother?
There are so many women who live fine without any of that.
I abandoned my child as soon as I gave birth.
Does she really think I deserve to be a mother?
Come in.
You should've come at noon. Why did you come so late?
I work, don't you know?
I only have time once I get off work.
Is it agonizing to live without money?
Why are you here?
Are you here to tell me that you're going to go back to England?
I came...
because I heard you went to visit...
Director Min, my current boss.
Why did you go see him?
I told him to fire you.
And he was brave enough to reject it.
I told you that I'm going to live without receiving any of your help.
What you did was cheating.
I really liked his courage of being able to say...
whatever he wanted to say in front of me.
Are you confident...
that you won't get divorced if I let you marry him?
I asked you if you're confident...
that you'll live a happy marriage if you get married to Hyung Joo.
Yes.
I think I'll be able to live happily if it's with Hyung Joo.
Really?
Then you should get back together with him.
Dad.
If I train him well,
he'll be able to become the heir of our group.
I saw him in person,
and I really liked how big and confident his spirit was.
I now get why you had such a hard time getting over him.
Hyung Joo's seeing someone right now.
What's the big deal?
- Steal him from her. - What?
A true businessman has to be able to...
take something he likes even when it belongs to others.
You're my daughter. Shouldn't you know that?
I'll help you out.
Make him become yours.
You must've been startled because I asked you to meet out of the blue.
No, it's fine.
Is there something going on? You don't look so well.
Hwa Young came to see me...
even when she's a wanted criminal.
Why? What did she say?
She was going to kill me with a knife.
She was going to kill you?
How can she do such a thing when she's being chased by the cops?
- Are you okay? - Yes.
I was able to get out of it,
but I'm really scared and worried because I don't know...
when she might show up and try to do something like that again.
And the thought of her trying to murder Hyung Joo as well...
is enough to make me feel terrible.
I really don't understand why she won't stop...
harassing you and Hyung Joo.
I even thought about asking the cops for personal protection...
or hiring private bodyguards to protect us.
But I think it'd be better...
for Hyung Joo and I to be apart from each other for a while.
In order to protect Hyung Joo, me,
and our baby from danger,
I think that'll be the best solution.
"Baby"?
Are you pregnant?
Mal Shim.
Why are you here? You didn't have to come.
Your son's sick.
I can't just pretend like I didn't know.
- Hi, Ms. Kang. - Hello.
You son must be really sick.
He looks so unhealthy.
If Ye Eun stayed by his side,
he'd be more eager to receive treatment,
and his desire to stay alive will become stronger.
But Ye Eun came by earlier...
and coldheartedly rejected him.
And that made me feel really upset.
I kept wanting to cling onto her...
knowing that she has the keys...
to saving my own son.
Was Ye Eun here?
Yes.
Jin Sup kept asking for her even in his sleep.
I know this may sound a little harsh...
since your son's lying sick in bed right now.
But how can you and Jin Sup think of doing such a thing?
How could you ask Ye Eun to come here?
Do you still think she's your daughter-in-law?
You really don't have a conscience.
Ms. Kang, I know very well...
that it was wrong of us to call Ye Eun.
But we couldn't help it because Jin Sup's so sick.
I wanted the skies to punish Jin Sup.
He's a jerk who made Ye Eun shed tears of blood.
So he deserves to get punished.
I came here because I couldn't help but pity him.
But I guess my initial thoughts were right...
seeing that you still had the audacity to call Ye Eun...
and ask her to come here.
Ms. Kang.
Don't you think you're being too harsh?
I know Jin Sup did things he shouldn't have done.
But how can you say that he deserves to get punished?
If he was scared of getting punished,
he shouldn't have treated Ye Eun that way.
They say, "You reap what you sow."
My heart's getting ripped apart because my son's sick.
How can she say such harsh comments?
I know she was harsh.
But she didn't say anything wrong.
Why did you...
ask Ye Eun to come all the way here?
She's my daughter-in-law now, not yours.
Why would you ask...
my daughter-in-law to come here just because your son's sick?
- It's making me angry too. - Hey, you brat.
My son's dying right now. The least you can do is console me.
Do you have to make things worse?
You're not even my friend.
I'm going to cut ties with you.
Come on.
You're the one who made a mistake. Why are you taking it out on me?
So I was wondering if you could help me out.
What can I do to help you?
Remember that farm you once took me to?
Can I stay there...
until Hwa Young gets caught by the cops?
That place is empty, so you staying there isn't a problem.
But are you saying you're going to hide even without telling Hyung Joo?
That way, no one will be able to find me.
That's why I came to ask you for help...
instead of going to my mom or Sang Eun.
If they find out that I'm pregnant,
my mom and Hyung Joo will want to hurry the wedding.
And if Hwa Young finds out about that,
me, Hyung Joo, and our baby might end up being in danger.
But I still think Hyung Joo should know.
No.
I know he'll go through a hard time...
because he won't know why I'm being like this.
But when he finds out later on, I'm sure he'll understand.
You're going to do what you want even if I stop you, right?
It was so hard for me to get pregnant.
It's a gift I got from the skies.
And the only thing I can think of...
is that I need to protect this baby.
Honey.
We don't even know when Jin Sup might die now.
Let's just let Byung Sook get married to Il Sam.
No. I'm okay with the fact...
that he's an orphan and has nothing.
But he's an ex-convict.
I don't want an ex-convict as my son-in-law!
Then what about Se Ran?
- Isn't she a criminal as well? - What?
She didn't go to prison only because she got lucky.
She forged a private document and committed fraud.
It's not a light crime.
Just because she didn't go to prison doesn't mean she's innocent.
Just because she didn't get punished doesn't mean she's not a criminal.
Of course, there are guilty people who live confidently...
just because they didn't go to prison.
But do you think that's right?
I personally think we should always think of Se Ran as a criminal...
and get rid of our greed.
I'm a mother, so I care more about my own children.
And I don't think Il Sam is enough to be Byung Sook's husband.
The most important thing in marriage...
is to be respected and loved by your husband.
I'm sure Il Sam will love Byung Sook...
and stay loyal to her for the rest of his life.
That's all we need. Let's not ask for more.
Are you looking for money?
I didn't hide it here.
I wasn't looking for money.
Then what were you looking for?
- Do you not trust me? - You don't trust me either.
We both only believe in money.
Aren't I correct?
If that was the case, I would've fled a long time ago.
We'll see if that's true or not.
Hyung Joo.
You said you were going to go home and rest. Where were you?
I felt frustrated, so I took a little walk.
How long have you been waiting here?
Ye Eun.
Think about how we got this far.
We went through so many things together.
I don't know what we might have to go through in the future,
but we need to go through it together...
because we love each other.
I know that.
Even when we don't feel confident in our journey,
and we suddenly feel like we want to quit,
we still need to hold onto our hands and keep going.
That's what you call love.
Why are you suddenly saying that to me?
Because it feels like you're keeping a secret from me.
It feels like you're worried.
Don't worry about a thing. We managed to come this far.
And we'll keep going like this.
Do you remember...
when I proposed to you asking you to live happily from now on?
Happiness only comes to those...
who confront and fight with what they need to fight with.
We both...
need to be worthy of becoming happy.
I came to tell you that.
I get what you mean.
I don't know what it is that's making you feel worried.
And I don't know why you're hiding it from me.
But I'll wait...
until you tell me.
Thank you.
You should go inside. I'll be off now.
You should go first.
I'm going to check if you look handsome from the back.
What's there to check? I'll definitely look handsome.
Enjoy looking at my back, then.
Hyung Joo.
I love you.
I'm sorry for worrying you.
But please remember this.
Remember that I love you.
I really love you so much.
How can I forget that?
I'll never forget that you love me even for a split second.
Okay. That's all I need to know.
But you're being really weird.
I guess there's definitely something going on...
seeing that you're being like this.
I told you. Everything's fine.
Don't worry and go.
Aren't you going to leave?
Then I'll go inside first.
Ye Eun.
Something's going on, right?
Why aren't you telling me what that is?
She talked to me as if she was never going to see me again.
But why is she sleeping here?
A pregnant lady shouldn't sleep so uncomfortably.
Hey, wake up.
What is it? Do you need something?
Why are you here? I thought we were going to cut ties.
I thought you'd feel lonely if you got discharged by yourself.
We'll cut ties when we have to.
But you have no one to rely on in Korea,
so I wanted to do at least this much for you.
You should sleep on my bed.
Like you said, you're pregnant.
You shouldn't sleep uncomfortably like that.
Are you worrying about me right now?
Why would I worry about you?
I just don't want you blaming me if anything bad...
happens to your baby.
Thank you...
for worrying about me.
What a joke. I'm not worried about you.
I know you did.
No, I didn't.
I would've killed you already if you weren't pregnant.
You're the one who would've died if I wasn't pregnant.
I'm only holding it in for the sake of my baby.
Your knuckles make such loud noises.
Dad.
What's the big news? What's taking you so long to say it?
Byung Sook and Il Sam.
You guys can get married.
Byung Sook, what did Mr. Lee just say?
I think I heard something wrong.
I heard something weird too.
I think he gave us permission to get married.
No way.
Are you really going to let Byung Sook and Il Sam get married?
Yes.
We don't know when Jin Sup might die.
It'd be nice for him to see Byung Sook's wedding before he goes.
Dad, are you seriously going to let us get married?
Ms. Yang, will you be okay with a son-in-law like me?
Of course. It's not like I have much choice.
You guys are so in love.
Mom! Thank you!
- My goodness. - Hey.
You're squishing us to death. Get away.
I'm sorry. Sorry. I'm just so happy.
Thank you.
I won't make Byung Sook suffer. I promise that we'll live happily.
- Thank you so much. - Of course, you should.
If you don't live happily, you'll have to split up with her. Okay?
Yes, Mr. Lee.
Don't call me that. I just gave you permission to get married.
From now on, you should call me "Father".
Father?
I've never called anyone that before.
Then you can call him that...
as much as you want from now on.
Okay.
Father. Mother.
It's still here.
What's this?
Why is the restaurant a mess?
Do you think a thief broke in?
What kind of thief just leaves after drinking?
Man Bok. Da Hong. I'm sorry.
We were going to come and clean this up before you came.
But things were just too hectic.
Why are you apologizing? You're not the one who did this.
I'm sorry, Man Bok.
I wanted to drink alcohol,
but I didn't have money, so I drank at your place.
- Can you please be understanding? - My gosh.
How can he be understanding? You stole from him.
I drank nothing but alcohol.
I didn't even eat anything with it.
I was trying to keep my conscience.
I'm starting to get really angry at your conscience.
I'll clean this up before we start taking customers.
Man Bok, I'm sorry.
How dare you act all cute to my husband? It's gross.
My gosh, it's really hard to watch.
So please don't talk to my husband like this.
I'm an actress.
My cuteness can't be gross.
You pregnant ladies should go home and rest.
What's wrong with her?
Man Bok, aren't you grossed out by how cute she tries to act?
What? It's cute.
What? It's cute?
I think it might make me throw up.
It's totally disgusting.
- Are you happy now? - My goodness.
Gosh.
You have an investment meeting...
at 2pm with the president of EK Bank.
And after that, you'll have to visit the lab.
Okay. You can wait while doing your work until then.
(TS Shampoo, Director, Min Hyung Joo)
Hey.
My dad told me that he really likes you now that he's met you.
What's that supposed to mean?
Don't you want to become the heir of Shinsung Group?
Hello, sir.
I'm Yoon Ye Eun from the Product Development Team.
(Team Manager, Yoon Ye Eun)
I'd like to apply for a long leave.
And I was wondering for how long I can apply for.
Did you just ask me if I want to become the heir of Shinsung Group?
My dad told me that he'll let you become the heir...
- if you marry me. - I'm not interested.
You didn't even hesitate for a second.
I'm not interested in exchanging my love...
for money, power, and fame.
So you can tell your father that he should look for...
another candidate to become his heir.
Ga Hee says she's sorry.
She promised to never drink again.
And you expect me to believe that?
Forget it.
Take the money I'm giving you, and get lost from our lives.
After having thought about my reckless life,
I just want to stay with Jin Hee instead of taking your money.
How much more are you going to make us suffer?
Do you know how dark Jin Hee's become ever since you came?
Jin Hee used to be full of smiles.
But she hasn't smiled ever since you came.
She doesn't know how to smile anymore because of you.
I know. I know that.
That's why I'm apologizing. I'll really quit drinking now.
Why are you suddenly being like this?
I want Jin Hee to accept me as her mother.
I came to Korea because I wanted to repay her...
for abandoning her when she was a little baby.
But I only ended up showing her my bad sides...
by not being able to quit drinking.
Then just leave before you show her something worse.
That's what you can do for Jin Hee.
I don't want to give up my right and obligation...
as Jin Hee's mother.
Please give me one more chance.
She's right, Jae Woong. I think she really means it this time.
I think it's too harsh to make her leave.
She's going to quit drinking, and she's going to appear on that show.
She'll also receive treatment for alcoholism.
I'll think about it.
I have an appointment, so I need to leave.
But this is really important. You need to give me an answer.
You know how frustrated I'll feel while waiting for your answer.
He said he'll think about it.
I hate it when people say they'll think about it...
or that they'll get back to me later.
Why can't they just tell me on the spot?
It's so torturing to wait.
If Jae Woong says he'll think about something,
it means he's going to make a positive decision.
He kept telling you to leave with the money he was going to give you,
so it would've seemed a bit weird for him to suddenly change his mind.
Is that what it is?
Ms. Mermaid, will you marry me?
Let's live happily from now on.
Are you ready...
to live happily with me from now on?
I love you, Ye Eun.
Hyung Joo, I'm going to leave without saying anything...
just so I can protect our baby.
I'll be waiting for the day I can come back...
and see you again.
(Director, Min Hyung Joo)
- Hello? - I'm calling from HR.
Ms. Yoon told me to keep this a secret from you.
But I still figured I should tell you.
What's this about?
She went home after applying for a long leave.
She applied for a long leave? For how long?
The maximum amount allowed by the company is for a year.
She took a leave for a whole year?
What was her reason?
She said it was due to personal reasons.
Why would she do that without saying anything to me?
Okay.
Let's go, Jae Woong.
The person you have reached is not available. Please leave a message...
The person you have reached is not available.
We're ready to go.
Ye Eun.
Ye Eun!
Ye Eun.
(Happy Sisters)
My baby, this place will be safe.
Nothing will happen here.
I wonder why she left without telling me anything.
Are you sure Ye Eun really ever loved you?
I changed my mind.
I'm not going to give up on you.
I'll tell you where Hwa Young is.
Today will be the day that Young Sook dies.
So this is where Hwa Young is?
