Bok Shil.
Se Ra.
Mr. Cha, you're here to see me?
It's a TV.
Your family should see you on it.
Also, I came to...
introduce myself properly.
Se Ra, won't you introduce me to your mother and grandmother?
Come in.
- Go and set it up. - Okay.
Why does he want to introduce himself?
Sorry, Choon Ja. Can you get my mom?
Kyung Ho.
Is she going to introduce her CEO to her family?
What was that huge thing? A TV, right?
Did her CEO buy that too?
Grandma.
Oh, hello, Bok Shil.
You just left. Why are you back?
That young man...
Grandma, you met him before.
He's the CEO of my agency.
- Hello, ma'am. - Hello.
What's all this?
Let's go inside. I'll explain inside.
Okay.
The CEO of Bok Shil's agency visited?
What's he doing at our house?
I think he likes Bok Shil.
Anyway, I think you should go.
I'd like to bow first.
Why are you doing all this for?
Oh dear.
Please sit.
- Yes, sit down. - Okay.
Grandma, the square thing is a TV.
I'll be on TV soon,
so he bought you one so you can all watch.
Okay.
Why would you come over here...
and bow to me?
It's because...
I like your granddaughter very much, ma'am.
Bok Shil.
You can sit.
- Okay. - Ok Boon.
This young man says he likes...
our puppy very much.
I like Se Ra...
I mean Bok Shil very much.
I'd like your permission to date her.
How long have you had feelings for Bok Shil?
Not for long, Grandma.
Did you agree to all this?
Yes, Mom.
Mother, Grandmother.
Despite your disapproval,
I visited you at home often to try to make you...
let me make Bok Shil a singer.
I know you don't think highly of me.
But...
I like Bok Shil a lot.
I hope that...
you'll accept me.
We put up the antenna. No we have to work indoors.
Can you wait a bit?
Mr. Cha, you can go.
I'm sorry we couldn't serve you anything.
Don't be. Bok Shil, you stay a bit longer.
I'll see you again, Mother.
What? Bok Shil's CEO came to say hi and brought a TV?
Yes. It looks like Bok Shil and him are dating already.
It looks like she'll get a rich son-in-law too.
Kyung Ho will be so upset when he hears this.
He saw everything when he got home from work.
Kyung Ho saw all that? Oh dear.
I knew Bok Shil would do this.
It was because you disapproved of her.
That's why she broke up with Kyung Ho.
Be quiet.
I feel sorry for everyone involved.
I feel bad for Bok Shil...
and for Kyung Ho too. Oh dear.
Why are you moping?
You saw Bok Shil bring her CEO home.
Do you still want her back?
Mal Soon, will you stop it?
Why are you upsetting him again?
I want to be alone.
You fool. Don't let me see you like this.
Bok Shil is a cunning fox.
She started dating her CEO as soon as she left you.
How could she do that...
even if she wanted to succeed so badly?
That's enough. Let's go to work.
Look at Hye Rin.
You don't care for her, but she stays loyal...
and is trying so hard to win my approval.
That is someone who really likes you.
I said stop it.
You're throwing oil on a burning fire.
Stop thinking about Bok Shil...
and try to make it work with Hye Rin, okay?
Oh dear.
I'm so sorry that...
I can't be of any help when I'm your dad.
Oh dear, what a mess.
Bok Shil.
How long have you had feelings for your CEO?
Did you start dating him to forget about Kyung Ho?
He thought highly of me from the start.
But if you're dating him to get over Kyung Ho,
that's not the right thing to do.
Mom, I'm going to like Mr. Cha from now on.
I need him to become a singer,
and he looks out for me.
Can't we start off like this?
You can't force yourself to like someone.
That's what worries me.
Don't worry. I won't do anything to cause concern.
I like him more than I do Kyung Ho.
He's polite when he greets his elders...
and above all things he thinks highly of Bok Shil.
Don't mention Kyung Ho again.
Did you go to his place...
to meet his family already?
Grandma, the thing is,
my CEO Mr. Cha is...
Mi Jin's distant relative.
What?
He lives with Mi Jin's parents and Jeong Hoon.
How do you know that?
Mi Jin told me.
The four of you had dinner together recently.
Yes. Mi Jin told you?
Why does he live with Jeong Hoon's in-laws?
His parents died in the war...
and Mi Jin's parents brought him up.
You're close enough...
to bring him home to meet your family?
Yes. Now do you see how I feel?
You should get over it as well.
Bok Shil.
I don't want to talk about this with you anymore.
Mr. Cha will make me successful...
and I want to work with him.
So...
I don't want you to suffer because of me.
Bok Shil.
Are you sure you won't regret doing this?
Yes. I won't regret.
I want to think of you now as a neighbourhood friend.
You can do the same.
I have to go.
Jeong Hoon.
I got back from your home.
What do you mean?
I met your family...
to ask for permission to date your sister.
I'd like you to accept Bok Shil and my relationship...
and show us some favour.
Jeong Hoon.
What did you and Sang Pil talk about?
Nothing much.
Jeong Hoon. Uhm Soon Young...
Are you sure you didn't take her somewhere?
Mi Jin.
Okay, I'll believe you.
You told me to be strong,
but people keep giving me ideas and it's tough.
I talked to Soon Young's aunt earlier.
I asked her nicely to stop coming to see me and you.
Can we both stop being distracted?
I'll try as well.
So will I.
Okay.
I hope you live up to my expectations.
I want you to keep the promise you made to yourself.
Jeong Tae.
Hi.
You're able to work?
I'm worried sick.
I came over because I'm stressed.
I'll only feel better after I talk to someone.
Golden Chariot Cabaret.
Sorry. May I speak to Gu Ae Shim?
This is Jeong Tae.
Just a moment.
- Take it. - It's for me?
Is it Soon Young?
Soon Young, is that you?
Aunt.
Soon Young. Where are you?
How could you do this?
I made a lot of mistakes,
but how could you leave without a word?
Where are you? I'll come to see you.
Soon Young, will you dig clams early tomorrow morning?
What's that noise? Soon Young. Soon Young.
Aunt, Min Su and I are well.
Don't worry about me and don't drink too much.
I called in case you were worried.
I won't ever call again. Take care.
Hello? Soon Young.
Soon Young. Soon Young.
She hung up.
She hung up without telling me where she is.
Calm down.
Where could she be?
How am I to find her?
Oh dear... Soon Young...
Min Su. What's wrong?
Soon Young.
Will you come dig clams at dawn tomorrow?
I don't know yet.
Min Su's been crying for a while now.
Okay then. Go to sleep.
Goodnight.
What's wrong, Min Su?
Are you hungry?
Where did you get a TV? Did Jeong Hoon send it?
Bok Shil's CEO brought it.
Bok Shil will be on TV soon.
Really?
Her CEO...
seems to like her a lot.
Did you know about that?
I did know but...
I'm not too pleased because I feel bad for Kyung Ho.
I told you all not to mention Kyung Ho again.
Her CEO and Jeong Hoon live in the same house.
Did you know that too?
Why do we keep getting involved with that household?
Forget about that. Jeong Tae.
Have you heard anything about Soon Young?
I don't know, Grandma.
How can I when she went into hiding?
The evil thing.
How dare she do that with a sick baby?
Why do you think she did so?
Will you just forget about Min Su?
I have to go and take care of something.
He's just upset, Grandma.
What are you doing here?
Did you come to take Min Su?
Have you heard from Soon Young?
Didn't Jeong Tae tell you?
She called the cabaret yesterday.
Did she? Where is she now?
Would I have drunk all night if I knew?
At least she was worried about me.
She told me not to and just hung up.
I don't want to see anyone from your family,
so don't come here.
Cheers.
Well done, congressman.
Half the credit of Mr. Hwang's nomination is yours.
You won the bid to a large construction project...
and the party members think highly of him.
You flatter me.
Mr. Hwang, did I praise him too much?
No, sir.
I don't mind you praising my son.
You should let him pour you a drink.
- Sure. - Why not?
You have one impressive son-in-law.
I do. I'll leave the company to him now...
and focus on my campaign.
You should do that.
- The thing is though... - I'm listening, sir.
You managed to get the nomination,
but there still are people who show some concern.
If you were to make...
a sizeable donation to the party coffers,
wouldn't that be good for everyone?
Yes, it would be.
It looks like I must leave first.
I have another appointment. Sorry.
- Goodbye. - See you again soon.
Jeong Hoon.
I need to spend the profits from the highway construction project.
Father, we must invest that into building Hoseo...
Yes, Father.
I'll calculate what we can spare.
On my desk you'll find a report that Sang Pil left.
It's about buying an album production company.
Tell Mr. Han to take a look at it.
I have to drop by the party office to say hi, so you go ahead.
Yes, sir.
Calculate up to today's profits from the highway project...
and the costs for Hoseo Dam.
Up to today's profits?
The end-of-month balance sheet...
that comes out in a few days will be more accurate.
I need it urgently.
This is...
Just a moment.
Oh Jeong Hoon speaking.
Grandma, what is it?
Bok Shil's CEO visited us at home yesterday.
He said he's Mi Jin's distant relative.
Yes.
I want to ask you something. Drop by this evening.
- See you. - Bye.
Did you know that Mr. Cha visited my family?
I know about it.
He asked me to accept him.
How do you feel? Is it really over?
Bok Shil is too adamant.
Mr. Hwang told you to look this over.
Mr. Cha wants to buy out a production company.
I'm sorry I have to make you do this.
It's fine. Goodbye.
Oh dear.
Is anyone in?
It's Jeong Tae.
Jeong Tae.
Why is Min Su crying? Is he sick?
Why are you here?
Jeong Tae.
Right. He's not very sick, is he?
Did you tell your brother?
Don't worry about that.
Why did you bring this?
I make a living. We have enough to live off of.
Okay.
You didn't tell my aunt where I am, did you?
Of course not.
I'll look out for your aunt as well.
You should go. Don't worry about Min Su.
Jeong Tae.
Okay.
I'll leave then.
Min Su.
What's wrong?
How exactly is Bok Shil's CEO...
and your wife related?
They're distant relatives.
Then there's no reason he can't marry Bok Shil.
You're considering that already?
They both like each other.
What kind of person is he like?
He was orphaned and raised...
by relatives so he'll be scarred.
Don't such people tend to have a mean streak?
I'm bothered that...
Bok Shil chose to date him.
Why is that?
If it's about Kyung Ho, don't mention it.
Grandma, Bok Shil and Kyung Ho like each other a lot.
Bok Shil said she no longer does.
Kyung Ho's mother threw such a fit.
She had no choice but to change her mind.
It bothers me that...
the man grew up without parents.
But he thinks so highly...
of Bok Shil and cherishes her.
If he's a decent person, I'd like the two to get married.
Since you live with him,
keep an eye out for your sister.
And you. You must find Soon Young.
You can't ignore poor Min Su who is sickly already.
We should bring him home.
Grandma, we talked about that...
- Quiet. - Hello, Jeong Hoon.
Why are you here?
Where were you?
Soon Young...
called her aunt at work.
Where is she? Where did she go?
She didn't say where she was.
She just said she's fine and not to worry.
The evil girl.
Doesn't she care about those who are concerned?
That's why she had the baby in secret.
You must find her, okay?
Did she really not say where she is?
She didn't.
You scumbag.
Don't pretend to be distraught. I feel worse than anyone.
Could you not guess where she was when she called?
Where there no hints at all?
I don't know.
Wait.
I heard someone speak.
Something about clams.
Did she ask about digging clams?
Clams?
Find Soon Young for me.
She needs me to help with Min Su.
She can't raise a sickly baby on her own.
Even Jeong Tae doesn't care now.
He answered Soon Young's call first.
He didn't sound shocked or ask where she was.
He just handed the phone to me.
He doesn't care anymore.
Will you please find Soon Young for me?
I came to introduce myself properly.
Bok Shil.
Are you sure you won't regret doing this?
Yes. I won't regret.
What did your mother and grandmother say about me?
They only saw you once.
You're right.
Where did you get the idea to visit them?
It was so unexpected.
I felt so nervous yesterday.
Do you mind that I visited your family?
It wasn't that.
I just needed some time to think.
Your grandmother didn't know that I live with Jeong Hoon.
- I explained that later. - Did you?
I hope they like me.
I should try to earn some points.
Just a moment.
Cha Sang Pil speaking.
What's the occasion?
Yes.
Okay. Bye.
I wanted to take you to dinner but I have to go out.
That's fine.
- Another glass, please. - Sure.
I thought you'd call me at least once.
So,
what do you want to say?
I don't trust you as a human being.
So...
why and how much you like Bok Shil...
I don't have a clue.
I had a rough life.
What I needed, wanted, and required,
I had to fight for.
When I found out that you and Se Ra liked each other,
I considered stepping back.
But...
I couldn't give up.
Se Ra had taken up...
too much space in my heart already.
When I think of Se Ra,
I feel at ease and want to be around her.
I never thought that...
I'd ever feel this way...
about a woman.
So despite...
knowing you were in the picture,
I couldn't give up.
I apologize.
Bok Shil was...
never taken seriously.
I was just as bad.
I told her not to sing.
I never tried to understand her.
But you...
You believed in her from the start.
Since she entered the audition,
you followed her around, offering to make her a singer.
You acknowledged her and...
helped her get this far.
Compared to that, I did nothing.
So...
Now that she wants to date you,
I can't stop her.
Bok Shil has...
a huge and very clear dream.
I acknowledge and admit that you can make that come true.
You win.
Mr. Han.
Bok Shil really means a lot to me.
Don't hurt her at all.
Make her happy so that...
she laughs and smiles...
all the time.
Please.
Mr. Han.
Sorry for the wait.
Where were you?
Yong Chil only just passed me the message.
Where were you? I called twice and you only just got the message?
Don't snap at me. I was busy.
Jeong Tae.
Are you looking for Soon Young?
Yes. Why ask when you know?
Did you not meet her?
Didn't you meet her on the island?
I didn't.
I searched everywhere for her.
She called the cabaret yesterday and asked for her aunt.
Yes. Did you take the call?
Did you ask where she was?
I did but she didn't answer.
And the call wasn't for me either.
You asked where she was?
- Instead of just passing the phone? - What?
Okay.
You can go. I'll stay a while.
You should go home.
Mi Jin will get worried if you're late.
It's late. You should go home.
I can't let a lady walk alone in the dark.
I'll take you home.
I know the neighbourhood much better than you do.
You needn't worry.
Choon Ja.
I quite like you. What do you think about me?
How can I tell when we only met twice?
Then we must go on meeting until you can tell.
Right?
I guess.
Just a moment, Tae Shik.
Jeong Tae.
I want to introduce you to someone.
Say hi to Jang Tae Shik, my blind date.
What are you doing?
Say hello. He lives across the alley from me.
The second older brother of my best friend.
- That's it. - This is unbelievable.
Hello.
My, you look handsome enough to be a film star.
You can go now.
Let's go, Tae Shik. You said you'd walk me home.
I heard someone speak.
Something about clams.
Did she ask about digging clams?
Did you not meet her?
Didn't you meet her on the island?
I didn't.
I searched everywhere for her.
Jeong Hoon.
Drink this.
Thanks.
Jeong Hoon, I'm seeing the doctor tomorrow.
To check the test results.
Can you come with me?
Sorry. I have something to do early in the morning.
It can't be helped. It's okay.
- I'll take this downstairs. - Okay.
What's wrong, Min Su? Min Su.
Why won't the baby stop crying?
- Can you have a look at him? - Oh dear.
Let me see.
Come to me.
My goodness. He's burning up.
What should I do?
I wiped him with a cold wet cloth all evening.
Take him to the local clinic first thing in the morning.
You poor thing. Oh dear...
Oh no...
What should we do with you?
Where's Jeong Hoon?
He had something urgent to do and had left when I woke up.
What could be so urgent?
He will be busy. He has to run Daeguk on his own.
Did you have a look at the buy-out proposal I gave you?
Mr. Han will take a look at it. Give him a little time.
Okay.
You'll have to see the doctor with me, Mi Jin.
- I'll come to the boutique. - Okay.
What's wrong with him?
He ran a fever all night.
This wasn't the first time, was it?
What? No.
A doctor in Seoul said he has a weak respiratory system.
There's nothing I can do for him.
Take him to a larger hospital.
- Doctor. - Right now, without delay.
You can't miss the boat.
Oh no... Min Su.
(Through the Waves)
- I sent her to a larger hospital. - What?
- He didn't come to work. - What?
- He went to an island. - She's on an island?
- You should've told the truth. - You said it's over.
Retroflexion of the uterus?
- He has a deformed heart. - What?
Do you think I can have a baby?
Your son has a rare blood type.
I love Jeong Hoon's sister.
Your father-in-law told her...
he'd do something to Min Su if she didn't leave.
Why did you have me followed?
How dare you talk back at me?
