(Episode 116)
Ye Eun, have you been doing well?
I'm pregnant.
Ye Eun.
I thought you were infertile.
I thought so too.
But Jin Sup was the problem, not me.
Jin Sup was the problem?
So...
you thought you were infertile until now,
and I even faked my pregnancy and miscarriage...
when Jin Sup was actually the infertile one all along?
I want to become a mother.
Ye Eun, you should be thanking me right now.
I'm the one who saved you from that wretched family...
that did nothing but mistreat you like a housemaid.
And thanks to that, you even became pregnant...
when you thought you were incapable of having babies.
You know what it feels like to lose an unborn baby. So please...
You saved my life from Doo Su once.
So I'll let you go this time.
Jin Sup's really sick.
He won't be able to live for long.
He has pancreatic cancer.
Pancreatic cancer?
Jin Sup's going to die soon.
Can't you just turn yourself in and get punished for what you did?
I let you live, and you still have the guts to act all high and noble?
Hey, don't try to lecture me.
Just because I let you off the hook this time...
doesn't mean I'll be doing the same again the next time we meet.
Or I should just make you live the rest of your life in misery...
- and kill Hyung Joo instead. - No, don't do that.
I hope you live the rest of your life in fear...
wondering when I might show up...
and kill you and Hyung Joo.
I'm home.
Mom.
Se Ran, have you been doing well?
Where have you been staying at?
Do you know how worried I was?
I'm not the problem right now.
You're brother's in a serious state.
What's wrong with him?
Jin Sup has cancer.
- He won't be able to live for long. - What?
I guess that's why he came by and gave me some money...
and acted as if he was going somewhere far away.
Jin Sup went to see you?
He didn't even pick up our calls or reply to our texts.
I can't believe Jin Sup has cancer.
How can something like this happen?
What's wrong? Is there something wrong?
I suddenly felt dizzy and tired.
I should go inside and rest.
Here.
Thanks.
You're hiding something from me, aren't you?
No.
I'm really not hiding anything.
Now that I'm a team manager, I just feel a lot more pressured.
And I'm tired of dealing with...
Jin Sup constantly visiting me when he's terminally ill.
I think I'm just exhausted.
Bye.
She won't pick up my calls either.
Where in the world is she? And why isn't she picking up?
Don't bother worrying about her.
She's probably drinking, not being able to fight her anger.
Why did she have to show up?
Please pick up. Come on.
(W Chicken)
Due to the owner's wedding ceremony, the restaurant...
will be closed for two days.
I'm an actress.
That fact doesn't change even if I'm not popular.
But they want me to tell everyone in the country...
that I have alcoholism and show them the process of my treatment?
How lowly do they think of me?
How can they ask me to appear on that kind of show?
(Utility Pole)
I'm not going to pick up your call, you brat.
Free alcohol tastes great.
They say, "No one can predict the future."
I thought Mal Shim would live recklessly for the rest of her life,
believing that her son was the best son one could ever have.
I feel sorry for Mal Shim's life.
I'm home.
Hyung Joo, why do you look so tired?
You should take care of yourself.
If you end up with a terminal disease like Mal Shim's son,
I won't be able to live.
- You know that, right? - Don't worry.
I'll continue to stay healthy.
You said you wanted to go see...
the Little Mermaid's statue before you died.
Let's go there together.
Just because I let you off the hook this time...
doesn't mean I'll be doing the same again the next time we meet.
Or...
I should just make you live the rest of your life in misery...
and kill Hyung Joo instead.
Stop taking this medicine.
We're almost done. You might end up ruining everything.
Ye Eun's pregnant.
I thought she was infertile.
She wasn't the one with a problem.
It was Jin Sup.
Doo Su performed a hysterectomy on me,
so I naturally thought I'd be the infertile one.
And I always felt sorry toward Jin Sup about that.
I also wanted to have a baby...
and start a family...
of my own.
The reason you're still staying here and can't leave...
I thought it was so that you could kill Doo Su.
But is it actually because you can't leave your husband?
That's not it.
He threw away the last chance I tried to give him.
He promised not to call the cops,
but he brought them with him.
If he had kept his promise,
I would've asked him to run away with me with my money.
That's what I was going to do.
I heard he's going to die.
He's going to die soon because he has pancreatic cancer.
Hey.
You're a wanted criminal. Are you allowed to come to places like this?
If you want to get the reward money, you can report me to the cops.
Both you and Hwa Young...
are so good at staying hidden from the cops.
I wear a mask everywhere I go.
Everybody wears masks these days because of the fine dust.
So it's hard for people to recognize me and call the cops.
I should be thanking the fine dust at this point.
Did you get a call from Young Sook?
She'd have to be crazy to call me.
She hasn't called ever since I brought the cops with me...
when I actually was supposed to meet her in secret.
I threw a bait and provoked her.
So I'm sure she'll make a move soon.
My throat's so dry after eating just eggs.
Give me money so that I can buy instant noodles.
What?
Don't you want to?
Fine, okay. What's there to lose?
I guess I have no choice. I'm not earning any money,
so I should report you to the cops and get some reward money instead.
Do you really want to take money from a wanted criminal?
I only take money from people who deserve to have their money taken.
I'm talking about guys like you who have no choice but to give me money.
Good for you.
I'll call you soon. I hope you manage to survive...
with the money you just took from me.
Nurse Jeong.
I knew you'd call.
Your guess was right.
I am with Hwa Young.
I knew it.
Give me some time to think things over.
What's there to think about?
We're both after Young Sook's money.
I'll call you again.
Hey, Nurse Jeong. Eun Jin.
My gosh.
Who just called you?
She's currently in hiding with Young Sook.
It won't be long until she tells me where Young Sook's hiding.
That's when we can steal Young Sook's money.
You're going to let me know where Hwa Young's hiding, right?
Young Sook's smart and quick-witted,
so I won't be able to fight her alone.
I should prepare for the worst and let you in on the act...
since you got betrayed by Young Sook as well.
Instead, just know that we'll be splitting the money in half.
It's true that I need money,
but I'm also doing this out of anger.
Hwa Young thinks money is everything.
So I want to see that backstabber's face...
as soon as I take all of her money.
You should eat more.
I'm done.
Is it because you're worried about your mom?
She'll be fine.
Don't even call that woman a mother.
What kind of a parent makes her kid worry?
Don't even consider her as your mother from now on.
I'm going to get ready for school.
Jae Woong.
Why do you keep saying that? You're only upsetting her.
It's not like I said anything wrong.
How can she do this to Jin Hee when she showed up after years?
Mom.
Please pick up.
My gosh, what's this noise?
It's Jin Hee.
Jin Hee, my daughter.
Mom, where are you?
Me? I'm in paradise.
I'm in paradise where I can drink as much as I want.
Mom, did you drink?
Where are you? I'll go.
You must be worried about me because I'm your mom.
Mom, where are you?
Jin Hee.
Don't let that woman fool you.
She pretends to be nice,
but she's only trying to separate me from you...
by humiliating me in front of the entire nation.
Mom, just tell me where you are right now.
Mom. Dad.
Mom's at Mr. Joo's chicken restaurant.
She's there?
How did she manage to get in there?
She sounded drunk.
I can't believe she drank there without even asking for permission.
Sang Eun, you can drive Jin Hee to school. I'll go see her.
No, I'll go.
You can drive Jin Hee to school.
Let's give her money and send her away.
I can't let her stay with Jin Hee anymore.
Jae Woong.
We're going through so much because of her.
I'm going to give her money...
and make sure she never comes near us again.
Jin Hee, you should go to school.
I'll call you as soon as I find out where Young Sook is.
By the way, aren't you a bit laid back for someone who has cancer?
Darn it.
Even you know about my terminal illness?
If I'm going to die anyway,
why bother to frown?
I might as well live a cool life until I die.
And what exactly is a cool life?
I'm going to take money from Hwa Young and splurge.
I'll see you.
Should I go to Jongno?
- He's so weird. - Should I go to Myeong-dong?
Mr. Kim.
The employees found out that you have cancer,
and they gathered money to help you out with your treatment.
Please take it, Mr. Lee.
Mr. Kim, I'm Lee Jin Sup.
You know I can't let myself take this.
Forget it.
I heard the company sales have increased.
The executives and employees gathered money...
to buy your stock...
that Ms. Jo had sold for a really low price.
And the employees are very eager to salvage the company.
Thanks to all that, our sales have come back to normal.
That's so weird.
I wonder how the company manages to function without me.
It's supposed to go bankrupt.
I'm just joking.
You should do well even without me.
Please tell the employees...
that I'll forever be grateful for their help...
when I've done nothing but caused trouble.
Okay, Mr. Lee.
Don't worry about a thing, and I hope you get the treatment.
I'll protect the company until you return.
Okay.
I will be back!
My gosh.
Wake up.
What do you want?
You promised that you won't drink.
What do you care?
Sorry, I forgot you're pregnant.
Aren't you ashamed to face Jin Hee?
Jin Hee's going through so much because of you.
I'm ashamed.
That's why I'm trying to make a comeback.
But you keep asking me to appear on a weird show...
just so you can humiliate me.
You can use this chance to quit drinking...
and show the world that you're willing to start acting again.
Plus, you're not obligated to appear on that show. Why did you drink?
I don't want to drink either.
But my body craves alcohol all day long.
That's why you need treatment.
Until when are you going to live like this?
You're a mother. Why do you make your kid worry about you?
Please think about Jin Hee before you do anything.
How annoying.
You sound as if you're Jin Hee's birth mother.
Try as hard as you want.
They say, "Blood is thicker than water."
Jin Hee will end up taking my side, not yours.
I'm only dealing with you because you're her birth mother.
You gave birth to Jin Hee,
and that's the only reason I'm treating you like you matter.
But I guess I shouldn't.
You keep failing to come to your senses,
so I want to give up on you now.
Jae Woong will give you money.
So don't you ever show up before Jin Hee again.
If Jae Woong gives me money and sends me off,
Jin Hee will miss me and start looking for me.
This shows that you're nothing but a stepmother.
You say you think of Jin Hee as your own daughter.
But you just want to enjoy seeing Jin Hee miss me and live in agony...
after I leave.
Do you know who the most pitiful person on this earth is?
Someone who fails to acknowledge other people's sincerity.
And that's you.
What's wrong?
Ga Hee, wake up.
My gosh, she's driving me crazy.
How are the sales of our new products, Mr. Lee?
Our competitor started selling all of their products...
at a low price,
so our sales have decreased a little.
Ms. Noh, have you reached Chairman Wang?
No, not yet.
Mr. Wang's very discreet,
and he does everything by himself unlike other company CEOs.
So it's taking us some time.
But I have a friend who graduated from Beijing University,
and she's working at Chairman Wang's company.
So I'm constantly asking her for information.
I always think a crisis is always the definition of an opportunity.
Let's keep up the good spirit.
- Okay, sir. - Yes, sir.
(Team Manager, Yoon Ye Eun)
Ms. Yoon, don't you think you're working way too hard?
You don't look so well.
I'm fine. I just couldn't sleep that well yesterday.
Ms. Lee.
Do you have the documents for the meeting I have at the lab?
Yes, Ms. Yoon.
- Thanks. - You're welcome.
I'll be back after I visit the lab.
- Bye, Ms. Yoon. - See you.
Thank you. Please visit again.
- Thank you. - Thank you for the meal.
Hye Jung, I should go now.
You're going to leave?
You can stay at our house.
I already feel sorry that Se Ran has to live with you.
I can't join her.
People will think of it weird...
if they find out that I live with my ex-husband.
By the way, where is everyone?
Why are you working all by yourself?
They all went outside to find Jin Sup.
Are you saying Sung Pil also went outside to find Jin Sup?
Of course. He's his son.
He doesn't hate Jin Sup like he says he does.
He couldn't sleep a wink after he heard about Jin Sup's illness.
So he went outside...
with Byung Sook and Il Sam to look for Jin Sup.
How is he going to find him?
Jin Sup's in hiding because he's too ashamed to face his family.
Then I guess I should help you out a little with the restaurant.
Here you go. My gosh.
We need to find Jin Sup by today no matter what.
They say, "The foot of the candle is always dark."
Apparently, a lot of people...
who run away from home end up going to familiar places.
I think we should go to the places that he used to go often.
I hate everything that Jin Sup does.
He should be receiving treatment and making sure...
his family doesn't worry.
- Why did he have to run away? - Don't say that.
He's probably too ashamed to face his family with his illness.
Hey, it's me. What?
Are you saying...
he was with Doo Su at a dry sauna until this morning?
Hey, why...
Why didn't you stop him from leaving?
You asked me to tail Doo Su.
You never told me to tail Jin Sup.
Okay.
If you ever see him meeting Doo Su again,
please bring him to me.
Okay.
- What is it? - Who was that?
It was a call from my friend who owns a detective agency.
I asked him to tail Doo Su.
And it turns out that Jin Sup was with Doo Su...
at a dry sauna until this morning.
Jin Sup was at a dry sauna in this neighborhood?
Yes.
Isn't Doo Su the doctor who forged Hwa Young's medical certificate...
saying that she's pregnant? He's a wanted man.
Jin Sup, that jerk, knows that he's going to die soon.
He should be coming to his senses by now.
Why would he hang around with someone so dreadful?
Let's find Jin Sup first.
Okay, let's look around little more.
- Mr. Lee, I'll go this way. - I'll go that way.
- Bye. - See you.
What happened?
She got drunk and collapsed.
The doctor said she probably collapsed...
because she had a minor shock due to excessive drinking.
She'll wake up soon,
but the doctor said she needs to get treated no matter what.
You know that...
we can't interfere.
It's something Ga Hee has to decide willingly on her own.
Jin Hee's really upset, isn't she?
I can't let her stay...
near Jin Hee for Jin Hee's sake.
I'm going to give her money...
and send her away regardless of whether she gets treated or not.
Do you really think that would be the best choice for Jin Hee?
I don't know what will be the best for her.
Director Min, hello.
Why are you all alone?
Ms. Yoon went to the lab for a meeting.
Mr. Hong and Mr. Seo went to meet some clients.
Ms. Yoon's meeting should be over by now.
- Have a good day. - Thank you.
The receiver cannot pick up...
(I'm sorry. I'm in a meeting. I'll call you back later.)
She's been avoiding my calls really often these days.
I'm sure there's something wrong.
Hey, don't try to lecture me.
Just because I let you off the hook this time...
doesn't mean I'll be doing the same again the next time we meet.
Or...
I should just make you live the rest of your life in misery...
and kill Hyung Joo instead.
I keep feeling nervous.
I've been through so many things,
and I'm finally happy. But I feel like it all might disappear.
I wanted to become a mother.
And the skies gave me a chance to become one.
I want to protect my baby. That's all I can think of.
Master Gong, the foot of the candle really is pitch dark.
I can't find Jin Sup anywhere.
Maybe he went somewhere far away.
You guys tried your best.
It's past mealtime. You guys should go back to the restaurant.
What about you?
I'm going to look for him a little more.
You should go eat with Byung Sook.
You might end up collapsing at this rate.
No, it's okay. I'm just not that hungry.
I'll look for him. You guys can go.
Then we'll also look for a little longer and take you with us.
We can't eat without you.
Come on. Let's not waste time.
Let's split apart and look for Jin Sup again.
- Okay. - I'll go this way.
- Then I'll go that way. - Let's go.
- Thank you for the meal. - Bye.
Jin Sup.
Jin Sup. Jin Sup.
Stop right there.
Hey.
How... How could you run from me?
Because I wasn't glad to see you.
You and I are never glad to see each other.
Let go of me. Let me leave.
I heard you're sick.
Let's go to the hospital.
It's all for the best, isn't it?
You always hated me,
so I'm sure you're happy that I'm going to die soon.
You punk. Regardless of how much I hate you, you're still my son.
What kind of a parent would be happy to hear...
that their child's going to die?
You'll understand how I feel once you become a father yourself.
I'm infertile.
I'm an idiot who can't even become a father.
So I'll never be able to understand how a parent feels,
- so just get lost! - Jin Sup.
I don't care if you keep living your life recklessly.
Just please don't die.
I'm sorry for all the things I've done to make you upset.
So please don't die.
You punk. How do you think I'm going to live...
if you die before me?
Why are you being like this all of a sudden?
How or when I'll end up dying is none of your business!
Should...
Should I get on my knees? Is that what you want?
I'd love to show you how I feel, but I can't.
So should I just get on my knees?
Forget all that.
Why are you suddenly apologizing now that I'm going to die?
What are you sorry for?
You don't even know what you're sorry for!
I didn't give you much love.
I never spent that much time with you.
And I was never a good father to you.
I should've loved you more.
That's what I regret the most.
It was...
It was because I felt incompetent.
I felt too ashamed.
I was never able to be there for you as a dad.
Every time you showed your hatred toward me,
I was never able to show you how much I actually loved you.
Jin Sup, I'm sorry.
My gosh.
Why are you doing this? I was going to hate you until I died.
I was going to blame you for all the bad things...
that had happened to me until now.
Why are you doing this to me?
Jin... Jin Sup. Jin Sup.
Jin Sup! Jin Sup!
Jin Sup. Jin Sup!
I came to tell you something.
I thought you'd never come back.
You're right. I'm never going to come back.
I got a job at a beauty parlor.
You feel a little upset that I won't be coming here, right?
Of course not.
Thank you for everything you've done.
Why did you suddenly get a job at a beauty parlor?
You were right.
I need some kind of license to earn a living.
It won't be easy to become a hairdresser,
but I'm still going to give it a try.
I want to earn my own money...
instead of depending on others.
Did you come here to break up or something?
Are you doing this because your mom doesn't approve of me?
Nonsense.
I meant that I won't be able to work here anymore.
I never said I'll stop liking you.
I'm going to keep hitting on you...
until the day you fall head over feels for me.
Do you think that day will ever come?
Don't be so sure.
You never know how things might turn out.
I'm going to do my best to get a license.
Then you can get a haircut from me.
I want you to be my first customer.
- Sure. - Promise?
I promise.
Hey, honey.
Stop looking for Jin Sup, and come eat.
What? You found him?
Then why didn't you bring him here?
What? You're at a hospital?
Jin Sup's at a hospital?
The hotel was nice,
but home really is the best. Don't you agree?
I didn't mind the hotel since we were able to passionately...
discuss the future of our country and world peace.
You're so naughty.
My gosh.
- Mom! - Hey.
Soo Ji.
Wasn't it scary to sleep all by yourselves?
Aunt Ye Eun stayed with us until we fell asleep.
By the way, Mom. Are we getting another sibling?
Is there a baby inside your belly?
Well, the thing is...
You're right. Your younger sibling's inside your mom's belly.
We were going to tell you after the wedding.
- How did you find out? - The supermarket owner told me.
The supermarket owner's always right about everything.
How do you guys feel about having another sibling?
I'm happy.
But the supermarket owner also told me that our sibling...
will receive more love than us when it's born.
She said Dad will naturally end up loving his child more...
since he's not actually our real dad.
My gosh, that woman always says way too much to the kids.
I should teach her a lesson and make sure she shuts her mouth.
Da Hong, you're pregnant. Did you forget that?
You can't get agitated.
There are so many things I need to look out for now that I'm pregnant.
My gosh, I'm so angry.
Soo Chan. Soo Ji.
I'll love you guys equally...
even when your sibling is born.
So don't worry about a thing. You trust me, right?
- Yes. - Yes.
Look at them chanting their answers like that.
Gosh, you guys are so adorable.
(TS Shampoo)
- Aren't you going home? - I should.
I called you earlier.
I'm sorry. The meeting ended a bit late.
Something's weird.
Why do you feel so distant?
Just a second.
Hello, Father.
Ye Eun, I'm sorry.
I know I should be too ashamed to call you like this.
Is there something wrong?
Jin Sup collapsed.
But he keeps calling for you even when he's unconscious.
I know that I should know better...
than to call you like this.
But can you please come see him just once?
Although I'm pretty sure...
you wouldn't want to see Jin Sup.
I'm sorry for calling you and asking you to do such a thing.
I'll be there.
Really?
Thank you. Thank you, Ye Eun.
- Is she going to come? - Yes.
How grateful.
We gave her such a hard time,
so she probably didn't want anything to do with any of this.
What did you just say?
You're going to the hospital to see Jin Sup?
I can't believe his family.
How can they ask you to come...
because of their son when you're an ex-daughter-in-law?
Don't you think they're too shameless?
They're parents. It's understandable.
I'll see you tomorrow.
Don't go.
Don't let yourself get controlled by Jin Sup and his family.
Are you...
getting swayed now that he's about to die?
Did you forget about everything he's done to you...
until now?
- What if I am getting swayed? - Ye Eun.
(Happy Sisters)
Can you please stay by my side until I die?
I'm not going to let my girlfriend...
take care of her ex-husband.
Let's go. Don't even listen to him.
Ye Eun.
I'm sorry. I want to go home alone.
Ye Eun did what?
She went on a leave for a year?
Do you think Ye Eun left with her ex-husband?
