Doo Su.
What are you scheming right now?
(Episode 112)
Duk Ja, where were you?
I was so bored because I was all alone.
Mal Shim.
Seung Mi.
Duk Ja, you finally managed to bring her here?
Yes.
Mal Shim.
I'm glad you're here.
In regards to our newly launched toothpaste,
we've not only contacted the biggest open market in China,
but we're also negotiating our terms with Inhwa Group,
the biggest distribution company in China.
Chairman Wang of Inhwa Group...
is known to be very discreet and secretive.
And I heard he signs contracts...
only after he attends the business meetings himself.
Do you think we'll be able to reach out to him?
The Foreign Marketing Team is very well aware of that.
So they're ready to try whatever they can to make it work.
Okay, you may leave.
Yes, Director Min.
I'll work really hard so that you won't think my paycheck is a waste.
I'm busy. Why did you ask me to come?
Busy, my foot. You're doing absolutely nothing.
How's Man Bok's place?
I don't like it because there's no bed. It's shabby too.
You always complain about everything.
You need to change that about yourself.
Did you ask me to come here to lecture me?
Jae Woong's friend who's a director will be coming over for dinner.
Really?
Did you invite him so that you can introduce him to me?
- Yes. - You should've asked him to meet...
at a hotel lounge or somewhere really nice.
Why did you have to invite him over to your house?
People will notice you.
Everyone knows who Jae Woong is.
If they see him with his ex-wife,
people will spread weird rumors about him.
Okay.
By the way, you keep talking to me like a friend when you're younger.
You're the one who started it. I'll treat you exactly how you treat me.
Forget it.
I don't have any clothes.
Get me some new clothes before I meet the director.
Why are you so demanding?
Come on. I'll pay you back next time.
Can you get me some clothes?
Let's go.
Instead, you can't get anything that's too expensive.
Thank you.
(Jam Un Medical)
Hello, Mr. Lee. It's me, Director Kim.
- Have you been well? - Of course not.
I got fired from a company I worked so hard to build.
But what brings you to call...
an old CEO that recently got fired?
Well, I'd like to meet you.
Can you come to the office?
I'd love to, but I can't move at all.
I'm hospitalized right now...
because I'm terminally ill.
What do you mean you're terminally ill?
It's all because of you guys.
How could you fire me from my own company? What did I do wrong?
I became terminally ill...
because I felt so upset.
Mr. Lee.
Does that mean you have cancer or something?
Yes, that's right. I have cancer.
I won't be able to live for long!
Mr. Lee, I'll go visit you at the hospital.
Se Ran, did you see that? I'm such a good actor, aren't I?
I can't believe you lied that you have cancer.
Director Kim and the other executives...
need to feel guilty for firing me.
What a mess. You're really incorrigible.
- I'm going to go now. - Hey, wait.
At least call Ye Eun for me before you leave.
Tell her that I'm about to die soon. Tell her that I have cancer.
I might get cancer myself...
if I stay with you for 10 more minutes.
Bye.
You're so diligent with packing side dishes...
for your eldest daughter now that she's pregnant.
Sang Eun doesn't have morning sickness,
and she doesn't crave stuff either.
So I just made some of her favorite stuff.
What's Ms. Jin doing?
She cleaned the bathroom a while ago...
and made the entire house smell of bleach.
And now, she's cleaning the garden.
I guess she feels uneasy about staying here for free.
- Are you going somewhere? - To see my eldest daughter.
You should take some rest.
I know this is my friend's house,
but I can't just stay home and do nothing.
- I'll see you guys. - Okay, see you.
- Bye. - Bye.
Mal Shim, I really can't get used to you behaving like this.
You're the one who told me...
that a woman needs to behave like a flower.
What do you think?
Am I like a flower?
This is all so awkward.
I think I might faint.
Hey, what's the use of slacking around?
Let's cook dinner before Ms. Kang comes back.
What? Me?
Why must I do that?
Are you saying you're not going to do anything...
when you invited me over?
Did you ask me to come so that you could slave me around?
No, of course not.
Then follow me.
Why does it feel like I'm being controlled?
- It's delicious. - Okay.
Do I need to peel this much garlic?
Yes, you also need to peel the onions.
- Okay, I got it. - Okay.
- What is it, Mom? - Come here.
Jae Woong's bringing a guest for dinner, so we're busy.
Have you gone mad? Are you crazy?
How could you bring Jin Hee's birth mother over to your house...
and have fun with her while you cook?
- What's wrong with that? - What?
It seems like she has a really bad temper.
Plus, you said she's an alcoholic.
What if she gets drunk and causes a mess?
If I just disregard her,
she might die on the street with a bottle of alcohol in her arms.
I can't just ignore her.
And what about Jin Hee?
We need to do everything we can...
to persuade her to get treated for her alcoholism.
You're pregnant right now.
Don't worry.
I think my baby's going to be really strong.
I've been feeling so energetic ever since I became pregnant.
And it's not like you're acting sane either.
What do you mean?
I heard you asked Ms. Jin to live with you at Ms. Na's house.
Who in the world would invite an ex-in-law...
to live with her?
Are you sure you'll be okay?
I have this to rely on.
Are you talking about your incredible head-butt?
- Sang Eun, the soup's overflowing. - Okay.
Mother.
Pardon?
- Me? - Yes.
I know I told Sang Eun that her soup tastes okay,
but I don't think she's that good at cooking.
Can you please come over and have a taste?
"Mother"?
Is she brazen, or does she just have a bright personality?
I just have a bright personality.
Okay.
My gosh.
What are you thinking about?
It's time to set up a trap for Doo Su.
Doo Su.
This place is way too beautiful for you to die here.
What are you talking about?
Young Sook asked you to do something for her?
I'm not sure if it's her.
But someone did ask me to find Doo Su...
who's currently gone missing.
And Young Sook's the only person...
who'd want to find him.
Did you find Doo Su?
Yes. I tailed him at first, but my boys are doing that now.
But what's weird is that he keeps hovering around Jin Sup.
Doo Su's hovering around Jin Sup?
Yes. Even now, he's at the hospital where Jin Sup's hospitalized.
And he's roaming around wearing a doctor's gown.
Jin Sup's hospitalized?
Byung Sook, did you follow me?
Yes. It felt like you were going somewhere weird,
so I followed you.
And I can't believe I was correct.
But why is my brother hospitalized?
Was he involved in a car crash?
No, he's just a little sick.
He was getting checkups when I was there, Ms. Lee.
"Ms. Lee"?
That's quite pleasant to hear.
Il Sam, should I report Doo Su to the police...
and just get the reward?
What should I do?
So that means Young Sook's still in Korea.
Don't report him to the cops yet.
Make sure you keep following him.
If Doo Su gets caught, we won't be able to catch Young Sook.
We can't let Young Sook just leave the country.
Okay.
Hello?
I'm Yoon Ye Eun, the team manager.
The broadcasting station?
Yes, I'm a writer for a show called "Successful Women".
And I'm calling because we wish...
to do a show regarding how you managed to become...
a team manager at TMO Group even as a high school graduate.
I'm not that great of a person who deserves to appear on TV.
Ms. Yoon, did you get a call from a broadcasting station?
Okay, I'll call you back after I discuss it with the company.
Okay.
What show is it?
It's a show called "Successful Women".
My gosh, that show focuses on interviewing successful women.
It has really high ratings too. You should appear on the show.
You can use this chance to promote our company as well.
Why are you asking me for permission?
You can decide that on your own.
It's a show where they interview successful women.
And I'm not sure if it'd be okay for me to appear on that show.
I'm a high school graduate who managed to become a team manager.
And they call me Ms. Truck because I drive a truck.
Apparently, they think people might really like that kind of stuff.
You should appear on the show.
You're the treasure of our company,
and you'll be able to give hope to many female high school graduates.
The fact that you're able to show how diligently you lived...
and give hope to others by doing that...
is a good thing.
Okay, I'll appear on the show.
Ye Eun.
Ye Eun, you're the best
My ears are rotting right now.
Bye.
Ye Eun.
At least admit that I'm a better singer than you.
Hey, stop talking nonsense.
Ye Eun, you're the best
Hey.
I'm sorry for being late.
I already cleaned everything.
I told you that you didn't have to come today.
I have nowhere much to go, and I have nothing special to do.
Are you proud of that?
- Pardon? - Try going to prep institutes.
You'll see so many people studying really hard...
so that they can pass a certain test.
Those kinds of people even use their spare time to do part-time jobs.
They don't waste a minute of their day.
But on the other hand, you waste time...
and say you have nothing much to do.
Why do always scold me and get angry at me?
- Because you seem pathetic. - I seem pathetic?
Do you have any kind of license that can earn you money?
Have you ever even thought of learning anything?
You're old enough to be mature.
But how can you still not know what you want to do with your life?
I know that I wasn't able to graduate from college,
but I can still speak good English since I studied abroad.
Should I try working as a tour guide?
You speak good English?
All you can say is "Oh, my gosh."
Hey, it seems as though you think of me like a piece of trash...
just because I once got a job...
by forging my diploma.
- Did you pay for what you did? - What?
Are you saying I should've gone to prison for that?
Of course.
And let's say you were lucky enough to avoid going to prison.
But haven't you ever thought that you lost someone their job...
by taking their place?
You managed to avoid going to prison,
but you should forever feel sorry...
to the people you've caused damage to and live diligently.
That's why I'm always stooping so low.
I put up with feeling so small...
and having to do all the dirty work for a jerk like you.
The reason you stoop low and feel small...
is because you like me.
Yes, you're right. It's because I like you.
Listen to me, Se Ran.
Healthy people end up having a healthy relationship.
You need to become human first.
You can start loving someone after you become human.
Don't you think you're being too harsh?
Do you think of me as a monkey or a dinosaur?
You're not human. You're just stupid. You're Lee Stupid.
I hate that nickname!
You can call me anything else but that.
That's what Hwa Young used to call me all the time.
Why do you think she called you that?
You should look back on your life and try to find out why.
I'm going to go exercise.
My gosh, stop calling me stupid.
My gosh.
Do Hoon's never kind to me.
But why do I like him so much?
Seung Mi, if you're done chopping the onions,
- can you trim the bean sprouts? - Sure.
No, wait. Remove the black lumps from the dried anchovies first.
Okay.
Did you finish chopping the leek?
- Here. - Thanks.
Hey, you also need to clean these mushrooms.
You brat! Stop ordering me to do stuff.
Why are you asking me to do so many things?
You've been doing nothing but giving me orders on what to do.
I'm in charge of tasting the food.
Do you want to cook the stew instead?
I think...
it's a little tiring to have you live at my house.
Come on. It's fun.
We grew old together, and we're even cooking together now.
It's not fun.
My back's about to break.
Fine. You can take some rest if you're too tired.
No.
I'll get rid of the black lumps from the dried anchovies.
Jin Sup, you must be feeling okay.
What are you talking about?
Can't you see that I'm nearly dying?
Where's Ye Eun?
Don't tell me you came here by yourself.
Why would Ye Eun come here?
I didn't know Ye Eun could be so cold-hearted.
How could she never visit when I'm almost dying right now?
On top of that, we used to be married for seven years.
You keep using that title of being her ex-husband.
Aren't you even embarrassed?
Why? Are you jealous?
I used to be happily married to Ye Eun for seven years.
Does that make you jealous?
It hasn't even been a year since you started dating each other.
Let me tell you something as someone who's been married twice.
Married couples sleep in the same bed,
and there's an unbreakable bond between them because of that.
I'm sure you have no idea what that is, you jerk.
Do you want to get beaten up at a hospital?
Ye Eun's never going to come to visit you,
so don't get your hopes up.
Let's wait and see.
She'll come visit me no matter what since I'm sick.
- Mr. Lee. - Director Kim.
I told you that you didn't have to come.
Your condition must be pretty bad.
I'll need to see the results to be sure,
but I'm sure I'm terminally ill.
How can you say that?
Like you requested, the results will be ready for you...
by tomorrow.
By the way, what exactly is your relationship with Lee Jin Sup?
He's just someone I know.
Please call me once you have the results.
Okay.
It can't be anything serious, right?
We'll need the results to be sure.
Bye, then.
What?
You want me to make an official apology to the employees?
I think you'll need to sincerely apologize...
in order to stop the employees from trying to sue you.
Listen to me.
I'm also a victim.
I'm even terminally ill, and I'm hospitalized right now.
But you're asking me to write an official apology?
Are you guys even human?
I'm only saying this for your sake.
I really don't like you.
You acted like you cared about me,
but you ended up firing me...
and taking my place!
I'm going to give that position back to you...
once you return. I'm being serious.
Forget it.
I'm too sick to write an apology letter right now, so please leave!
Mal Shim.
Mal Shim, are you alive?
Is it Mal Shim?
Where are you?
I looked all over the place for you. I even posted flyers.
What? You're staying where?
I'll go over there right now.
- Where's Mal Shim? - At Seung Mi's.
At Director Min's place? But Ms. Kang lives there.
I know. I'll have to go and see what happened.
Gosh.
Stay away from each other!
That's already the 14th time you yelled at them today.
(TS Shampoo)
(Team Manager, Yoon Ye Eun)
You're working all by yourself again, aren't you?
That won't get you a raise, you know.
What about you? Why are you still working?
I got off work right after meeting a client outside the office.
So if you don't mind,
can you get me the paper bag that's on my desk?
Congratulations on appearing on a TV show.
I hope you like it.
Gosh.
Hello?
Gosh, you startled me.
I got it for you so that you can wear it on TV. Do you like it?
It's pretty.
You really need to stop impressing me like this all the time.
I'm a guy who always tries hard to find out...
new ways to make you smile.
I'm not sure if I deserve to be this happy.
I was always desperate to become happy.
But now that I'm actually happy,
it feels so unreal and awkward.
And it also scares me that someone might steal...
this happiness from me.
What you think, what you say, and what you determine...
all become your reality in life.
So make sure to always think about positive things.
No one can steal your happiness from you...
because I'll be protecting it.
You're being all cheesy again.
If you can't stand that,
I'll rot your ears this time.
Ye Eun, you're the best
Here you go.
Mal Shim.
How did you end up here?
Things just kind of happened.
I was going to cook after I came back from meeting my daughter.
You didn't have to cook everything like this.
Eat up.
I used to give Ye Eun...
a hard time by always making her cook.
I'm hoping I can repay for what I did by cooking for you instead.
Gosh, what's going on?
I really can't get used to seeing Mal Shim and Ms. Kang...
get along so well like this.
Right? I really can't get used to it either.
By the way, Hye Jung. You're so mean.
I get that you wanted to find me.
But why did you have to use the ugliest photo?
Were you trying to embarrass me with the excuse of...
trying to find me?
That was the only photo I had.
Hey.
You should've used this photo instead.
Didn't I used to be really slim and pretty?
Is... Is this you?
Aren't I pretty?
Let me see.
Let's be honest. You're not pretty in this photo.
You're just slimmer than you are now.
Right, Duk Ja?
To be honest,
she's not that pretty.
If this is how she looked when she was young,
that means she was a ticking bomb.
A ticking bomb?
A bomb.
You're a bomb.
That's the best word to describe her.
- She called you a bomb, Mal Shim. - My gosh.
Gosh, let's just eat.
My goodness.
Eat slowly.
Gosh, I'm so nervous. The director should be here soon, right?
How do I look?
You put too much makeup on.
No one puts that much makeup on these days.
This isn't too much.
I'm an actress.
I think she's right. You put too much makeup on.
I said, I'm an actress.
I have a nice cleavage. Should I pull this down?
That's too much. Pull it back up.
Gosh, come on. I'm an actress.
My gosh.
They're here.
- Sang Eun, I'm home. - Hey.
Sang Eun, I'm here too.
Welcome, Producer Jo.
Hello.
Hello, my name is Ham Ga Hee.
Oh, hello.
This place smells amazing.
You must've cooked so many delicious meals.
We did our best to cook what we could.
We spent so much money on buying the ingredients.
Everything's so expensive in Korea.
It hasn't been that long since I came back from Canada.
Oh, I see.
I know you didn't ask, but I wanted to let you know...
because I thought you might be curious.
You must be hungry. Let's eat first.
Let's go eat.
Even her walk is way too much.
(Part-time Job Recruitments)
What are you doing?
I'm going to renew the webpage for our jokbal restaurant.
It's pretty nice.
Our franchise business keeps growing these days.
So not only...
do we have to develop new menus to meet our customers' needs,
but we also need to be more strategic with our marketing.
Master Gong and I are even doing market research.
I can really picture you as the CEO of a jokbal restaurant.
Of course. Mom worked so hard to build this business.
I should make it more successful since it's a family business.
Are you still interested in taking over the jokbal business?
Let's not fight over money like conglomerates...
and end up cutting ties with each other.
We're not conglomerates,
so we won't be fighting over who gets the business.
Why are you so disheartened these days?
I feel so pathetic. I don't know what I did all my life.
I don't even have a license.
The only thing I have is my fake diploma.
This isn't like you. What's wrong?
Is your crush treating you...
like a piece of trash because you forged your diploma?
I'm glad to see that he has a decent mindset.
Yes.
Do Hoon's mindset is so just and decent...
that he treats me like a piece of trash.
But I have to say, it doesn't make me feel that good.
Ye Eun, I'm sick.
I'm even more sick because you're not coming to see me.
So I prepared a little something for you.
Back when we used to date each other,
you used to love it every time I sang this song.
There's a tadpole swimming
In a small stream
His front legs come out followed by his back legs
And now, he's finally become a frog
Jin Sup's unbelievable.
Is this what he used to do back when you guys dated?
I found it cute back then.
Sure you did.
Followed by his back legs
And now, he's finally become a frog
Gosh, Ye Eun should be calling me by now.
I knew it.
Hey, Ye Eun.
Did you start missing me after seeing me...
act all cute?
Jin Sup, you really need to stop behaving like this.
How old are you?
Did you see the video as well?
Ye Eun's already tired from working so hard.
So please refrain from sending her disgusting videos like this.
Please do us a favor and stop.
That was humiliating.
Sang Eun.
Why did you say no to appearing on a talk show...
for married couples?
You've become really popular after having appeared...
on the home shopping channel.
Gosh, that's not true. I'm not interested in appearing on TV.
Enough about me.
Jin Hee's birth mother used to be an actress in the past.
And we invited you to meet her because she wants to act again.
I see.
I know how to sing chansons.
And I know how to do method acting.
I figured you might want to know,
so I'm telling you all this before you even asked.
Oh, okay.
If you give me an opportunity, I promise that I'll do my best.
Well, okay.
I must be a bit too nervous. Please excuse me.
What do you think?
Do you think she has a shot in acting again?
She's got no chance at all.
What do you mean?
Are you okay?
I have indigestion, and I have a headache.
I must've been too nervous.
Her makeup style is too old-fashioned.
And there's nothing special about her looks.
Who puts on that much makeup these days?
She's too out of date as well.
Who would want to cast an actress from a long time ago?
On top of that, she was never popular...
to begin with.
Come sit over here.
Your makeup's too thick.
I told you that it was too much.
Cheer up. You can get through this.
I'm suddenly craving alcohol.
You should go home now.
- I can't do that. - What do you mean?
Hi, Director Min.
See?
Did you invite him over?
He reserved a really expensive hotel for us...
when he heard that we're not going on a honeymoon.
So I wanted to show him our gratitude.
- Come inside. - Okay.
Da Hong wanted to have a small wedding,
so we decided to get married at a park.
- You're going to come, right? - Of course.
Ye Eun must be really tired.
She's overloaded with work these days.
Ye Eun. Hey.
I'm sorry. I didn't know I fell asleep.
It's too early to sleep, but you should take a short nap.
I think that's a good idea.
I don't know why I'm always so sleepy these days.
I suddenly feel sorry because it seems like...
I'm responsible for making you work so hard.
What's this?
You'll be appearing on TV.
You need to look pretty.
Gosh, when did you prepare this?
- Goodnight. - Okay.
What? I'm outdated?
My makeup was too much?
Sang Eun.
Did you scheme behind my back with that director...
so that you could make a fool out of me?
What are you talking about?
Sang Eun did everything she could for you.
It's just funny.
How could he not recognize my talent...
and talk gibberish like that?
Do you think I'm not aware of what you wanted to do?
You planned for this to happen...
so that you could humiliate me in front of Jae Woong and Jin Hee.
Stop being so stubborn.
Can't you see...
that three of us are trying really hard to help you out?
Forget it. Don't look for me from now on.
Where are you going? You don't even have any money.
That's up to me to figure out.
If you just leave like that,
Jin Hee will be worried.
Why are you so strong when you're pregnant?
Stop acting up when you can't even win against me.
(Ex-husband)
What?
Are you still with Ye Eun?
You guys are incredible.
Jin Sup, where are you?
I came to Ye Eun's house to see Ye Eun. Why do you ask?
Gosh, he's unbelievable.
He keeps answering Ye Eun's phone for her,
and now he's hanging up without even telling me.
You must think of Ye Eun's place as your own house.
You're not even married yet. Do you think this is appropriate?
You should be at the hospital. What are you doing here?
Were you trying to make...
Ye Eun pity you by showing up in a hospital gown?
Whatever I was intending to do is none of your business.
Young Sook.
I know exactly how to provoke you.
(Happy Sisters)
I feel like this is my only opportunity to get Ye Eun back.
Ye Eun's my last chance.
- Doctor Ma? - Are you going to call the cops?
If I get arrested,
you'll never be able to catch Young Sook.
Don't worry. Doo Su can't outsmart me.
I have two things to tell you.
What would you like to hear first?
The shocking news or the less shocking news?
