Do you...
not like me anymore?
No.
You don't like me?
No.
(Episode 19)
Did you two know about this when you came here today?
I can't stand this.
Let me go drop off Si Hyun.
Let me come with you. Let's take him to Tae Hee.
Let her go.
I'll call a chauffeur to Si Hyun's house.
Do you know where Si Hyun lives?
What?
No.
Drive Kyung Joo home.
I'll go home after I drop off Si Hyun.
But still...
Let her go.
Hey, Si Hyun. Get yourself together.
Let's go.
I can't help it.
- I'll go check on Tae Hee. - Until when will you keep that up?
What?
Until when...
will you and I clean up after our friends?
We're here. Let's go.
I don't want to go in.
Okay.
Don't go in then.
Please continue driving.
Si Hyun. Si Hyun...
What's wrong with you?
Should I...
stay here tonight?
Why?
Are you that sad?
Look at me.
You.
Me.
And Se Joo.
We only had each other when times were tough.
We truly believed...
that if it wasn't for the three of us,
no one would understand us.
- Soo Ji! - Let go of me.
- We believed so. - Wake up!
We did.
That's why...
I'm here with you today.
That was so natural for me until this day.
Go to sleep.
And when you wake up,
let's go home together.
But I do not...
feel like that anymore.
10th floor. The doors are opening.
Going down.
My gosh.
It was too dark in here.
Can you take this and hand me a cutting nipper?
What? Okay.
What are you trying to do to me?
(Myoungjeong Hospital)
- Yes, President Myung. - Can you bring me...
Vice Chairman Kwon's medical checkup result from last year?
(Physical Examination for Draft, Park Kyu Jeong)
It won't be easy for you...
to get used to JK Group, President Myung.
You can't deal with your business or children..
by only sticking to rules and principles.
I apologize, but we cannot make a false diagnosis.
That's considered a forging of an official document.
Please bring your son to be diagnosed by a doctor,
and let him receive treatment.
We can give you the diagnosis after you do that.
Do you think I don't know the rules?
Kyu Jeong is our heir.
I thought you'd understand now that you became...
a part of the royal family.
Vice Chairman Kwon must go to another hospital...
because it feels like he's talking to a wall.
What do you mean?
Hye Jeong told me that...
she saw Soo Ji's stepdad at her optometrist's office.
Vice Chairman Kwon did not receive a physical checkup last year.
He changed the appointment many times,
but he ended up never coming in.
All right.
What brings you here? You didn't even call.
I wanted some beer, but I had nowhere else to go.
Oh, these.
Soo Ji always tells me not to do this,
but this is so comfortable.
Then you can stay like that.
- I do that too. - Have a seat.
Wow, looks good.
I love beer with chicken.
It's been forever.
I've never seen you happier.
Soo Ji won't eat this with me.
Do you do this often with Si Hyun?
No.
I'm sorry for not calling...
after Tiuzen passed the screening.
That's so refreshing.
This must be why I wanted to stay late.
May I ask you for a favor?
Of course.
Soo Ji's department has an idea for a business and academic cooperation.
It's a program for businesses to sponsor new musicians.
Can you consider their proposal?
You can make a decision and go ahead with it.
Do you have a physical condition by any chance?
Someone has seen you at another hospital.
I guess someone saw me at my optometrist's office.
I'm fine. Nothing is wrong.
You should get checked up.
You need to make some time.
Are you sure you're okay?
Yes, I'm fine.
Our eye doctors are great too.
Okay.
If you don't feel well,
you have to tell me first.
I'm not trying to give you pressure.
I mean, we have to keep our business running.
I will.
I'll tell you first.
Do you think...
Si Hyun really liked Tae Hee?
Tae Hee would know.
There really is no way of telling how someone feels.
How could he do that if he really liked her?
Did she like Si Hyun a lot?
Very much.
That's why she's holding back.
Kyung Joo.
Do you really know how you feel?
Does anyone know accurately how they feel?
How can they know?
You can tell for sure...
after you kiss someone.
You might not like me that much either.
Hey, I don't think I liked you that much.
I guess I just liked you as a friend.
Oh, my gosh. This is embarrassing.
Goodbye.
Bye.
Kyung Joo.
What's wrong, Kyung Joo?
What's wrong, darling?
Let's meet up. I have something to say.
Ko Kyung Joo, are you missing lectures again today?
Poor Kyung Joo hasn't been eating...
or sleeping.
Look right here. I've aged too.
I brought tteokbokki and tempura.
Get up.
Here.
You kissed him...
and realized that you really liked Se Joo?
And you could clearly tell that he didn't like you?
Yes.
Eat up.
You know how you both feel, and that's that.
Why cry about it?
Are you okay?
I'm fine.
Not dating won't kill me.
It's for the best.
I unwittingly relied on him and let him get on my nerves.
I don't like that now.
- That's a lie. - It's true.
Don't mention him anymore.
Congratulations on ending your unrequited love.
Still, it's the first time I dumped a guy, isn't it?
Yes.
You two can still be friends.
It worked out.
Will you really end it like this?
I thought of clinging onto him...
or demanding an explanation.
I won't.
It's a waste of time.
Where did it go?
- Did you get home safely? - Right.
I had a really hard time hailing a taxi.
You shouldn't drink. You keep blacking out.
You'll get alcohol-related dementia.
Sorry.
You're sorry?
For what?
You don't remember.
I'm not sure.
Did you do something wrong?
Okay, then.
What is it? Did you two get into a fight already?
Did you get home safely?
Well, I slept here.
Soo Ji dropped me off and went home.
Why sleep here and not at home?
Why did you summon us, Soo Ji?
Seol Young Won.
A potter. The same age as Seok Woo and from the same university.
Can you guess what's next?
(Potter Seol Young Won)
Do you know her?
No.
Did you check?
I saw them together with my own eyes.
She held an exhibition at Joosung Hotel.
Does your mother know?
Yes.
I'm embarrassed to say that...
she bought the woman's work.
You should have a few at home.
She used to be quite prolific back in the day.
In an interview, she said that her works sold out,
and she has no idea where they went.
For an artist to become famous, the buyer should...
exhibit them, give them as gifts, and brag about them.
Artists become famous when people talk about them.
Someone's ruining her chances to do so?
Did my mom ruin this woman's future?
- It can't be that. - It could be the opposite.
Your dad could be trying to help her.
Isn't that touching?
That has her email address.
(Studio Address)
She has studios in Icheon and Jeongeup.
What'll you do?
Revenge...
is to take what's most valuable.
What's that to her?
Si Hyun's dad?
Her work?
- Or her child? - Soo Ji.
What's wrong with you?
Is she married? Any kids?
No.
- I don't know. - Will you stop...
Isn't it enough to know who she is?
The marriage will be all over the news.
There's no way she won't find out.
If your dad keeps seeing her, deal with it then.
You could do that.
It's up to you.
I'll deal with it. See you.
Take care.
Hi, I'm Eun Tae Hee.
She's Kyung Joo's friend.
She's very smart.
Say hi, Hye Jeong.
She got full marks in the SAT and won many math olympiads.
She holds a Myoungjeong scholarship.
Hello.
Hye Jeong, can you show me the books you've been studying with?
Oh, yes, yes. Come this way.
Let me see.
You have lovely handwriting.
It helps to go over the basics many times.
I went back to middle school math a lot.
Really?
So it wasn't wrong at all.
Let's work a bit more on factorization.
If you can't factorize, equations will be hard to solve,
and then linear and quadratic functions will be really hard.
To be good at factorization...
Look.
Myoungjeong Group consists of the hospital and medical foundation.
It looks like she stepped away...
from management to research,
but President Myung is the actual operator.
When JK Bio merges with Myoungjeong Research Center...
that researches artificial internal organs...
and stem cell cures,
we hope to turn a profit and expand our bio research capabilities.
What's the most promising thing they're working on?
A new stem cell treatment for atopy.
If the clinical studies are clear, they'll go on sale in the fall.
That's too late.
What about the potter?
I heard Seok Woo's seeing her again.
I confirmed that she ended things first with him.
The vice chairman isn't contacting her either.
I am well-aware of your capability.
But you tend to cause some chatter while doing your business.
The matter regarding the shares under borrowed names has surfaced.
I'm quite uneasy about that.
I'm sorry.
Please, you don't need to treat me so formally.
I will treat you casually after you become my family.
And as of now, you're not my employee either.
Aren't I right?
You're right.
I heard you're running clinical trials for a new drug.
I will keep my eye on it once it gets released.
I hope that you will produce a great result so it can silence...
the matter regarding the shares under borrowed names.
- Mom. - This is about our business.
Your effort will be compensated.
Depending on the result, I plan to transfer...
a sizable amount of my shares.
And it depends on your performance...
whether my shares will be given to Seok Woo...
or to my grandchildren, Yeo Min and Si Hyun.
Ma'am, I say this with respect,
but if shares are not inherited, there may be a problem with taxes.
That's precisely why I said it depends on President Myung.
If you're capable,
you don't need a lot of shares to run the company.
I understand.
I will do my best, ma'am.
Here. It's a present.
My gosh, this is good.
You're the daughter of a barista, indeed.
You're great at making coffee.
Did you know that Dad isn't teaching anymore?
Do you two talk?
How could we become strangers to each other?
We have a beautiful daughter together.
When you were in the hospital,
I was so scared, and it was hard on me,
so I called him once.
As soon as he picked up, he said,
"The beans I'm roasting right now..."
"are for you."
That sounds like him.
I couldn't bring myself to tell him that you were in a car accident.
I told him that he made a great barista.
I told him to stay healthy and hung up.
Why didn't you tell me that?
If you knew, you might've gotten your hopes up.
Dad still misses you.
I also miss him from time to time.
But...
we might be better off this way.
When I miss him, I can just see you. I can see his face in yours.
I'm sure he's the same.
He can see my face in yours.
I'm going back to Icheon.
My exhibit is over.
I checked that you're fine.
- Okay. - And...
I'm not dating anyone.
I came here to tell you that.
I wasn't curious.
If I was more like your dad,
you would have come see me.
Your dad is warmhearted,
but I'm coldhearted, aren't I?
You don't look so good.
Are you sick?
No.
Did you get dumped?
Nonsense.
I said I'm not dating anyone.
Besides,
I would be the one doing the dumping, not being dumped.
Whatever. Good for you.
When I return to Icheon, I'll focus on my work.
Visit me when you're on break.
I'll try.
You didn't say no.
Bring your boyfriend if you have one. I'll cook you a nice meal.
You're a bad cook.
You have a boyfriend. You do have one.
- No, I don't. - I doubt it.
I just told you I don't have one.
Who do you think contributed to my lack of dating life?
Why are you getting all riled up about this?
It's refreshing to hear you say something like that.
Whatever. Have your drink, and go.
Tae Hee.
Thank you so much...
for accepting my present.
Mr. Yoon.
I asked you once why there was no record...
of my mom's car accident.
Yes, you did.
You said you'd look into it, but I haven't heard anything.
I know why you didn't tell me anything.
You're worried that...
the fact that my mom caused a car accident might shock me.
Then answer this, please.
I doubt that you don't know.
I know that the potter and Dad have...
some sort of relationship.
My mom said this once.
She said when she's looking at the piece...
I feel like I'm the owner of this place.
Now, I understand what she meant.
Did she buy these pieces? Or...
You won't answer as expected.
Tell me the connection between...
my mom's car accident and the potter.
What connection?
Just tell me. Or I'll have to visit her.
Your mother...
was on her way to meet the potter.
She had an accident on her way.
And about the pieces.
The chairwoman instructed to buy her pieces from a long time ago.
Grandmother did?
No way.
Everyone in my family knew. Everyone except me.
You won't even say hello?
No. He shouldn't act like he knows me at all.
It's over between us.
