(Episode 120)
Bok Shil.
What happened? Where's Mr. Cha?
He's not here.
What do you mean? I was told he'd be here.
That's what we thought.
Why isn't he here? He set this up.
So you couldn't even explain?
You saw the mess. How could we without Mr. Cha?
Jeong Tae, I couldn't say a word.
What now? What'll happen now?
Don't worry. Explain at another press conference.
Yes, Bok Shil. Don't worry.
Kyung Ho, you look after her. I'll go back to Lucky.
- Okay. - I'll come with you.
No, you stay with her.
Bok Shil, go home.
I'll ask Mr. Cha what happened.
Don't worry about her.
Okay.
Hey.
It's okay, don't cry.
Thank you.
You don't have to thank me.
If you hadn't showed up then,
I'd have been really scared.
All I did was cry like a fool.
You weren't a fool.
Anyone would've done the same in that flustering situation.
I'm so grateful that you showed up.
I left you alone believing that Mr. Cha would look after you.
I'm sorry.
Don't be.
I don't know why Mr. Cha didn't show up.
He said he's been trying to help cover up Jeong Hoon's mistake.
But I still don't get why he didn't come.
Mr. Cha's not here.
Se Ra isn't here either.
No one's here.
The phone's ringing off the hook.
Where's Mr. Cha?
I don't know.
Where's Mr. Cha?
- Is he back? - No.
Where does he live? Give me his address.
We can't do that.
You know who I am! I have to see him!
I still can't tell.
- Oh Jeong Hoon speaking. - It's me.
- Hey, what's up? - Give me your address.
What for?
I need to see Mr. Cha. Give it to me.
What happened? Why didn't you show up today?
Why can't you say? What happened?
- Let go of me. - What'll you do about Bok Shil?
Jeong Tae.
Let him go first. Talk it out.
What's this about?
A paper printed an article about Bok Shil singing at a club.
- What? - It's not true.
He organized a press conference...
to tell the truth and didn't show up.
It was all a huge mess...
and Bok Shil couldn't explain.
What happened?
Is he telling the truth?
It's all your fault.
What?
It's your fault that I couldn't be at the press conference.
You know Congressman Oh helped cover up your involvement charge.
What does that have to do with this?
The person who told the press that Se Ra sang at a club...
is Congressman Oh's daughter and singer Hye Rin.
Congressman Oh helped cover up your crime.
Do you think my uncle or I can ignore his wishes?
That's why I couldn't show up.
Does Mr. Hwang know?
Did he...
tell you not to be there today?
He owes Congressman Oh a lot himself.
It couldn't be helped.
It's all on you.
Your father-in-law ruined the press conference then.
I'm home.
- You're late. - Yes.
Did you have a drink?
A few.
Because of that?
Why drink over that?
End things with her right now.
There are other women to date.
What do you mean? Who are you talking about?
I'm home.
Go on upstairs.
You should go upstairs too.
I met Jeong Hoon and his brother outside.
I told them why I missed the press conference.
I don't care.
What does he think he can do about it?
What press conference?
What are you talking about?
You don't need to know.
Why aren't you getting changed?
Can no one else at Daeguk do your job?
Let's leave soon.
I want to forget all about our problems.
Do that for me, will you?
Where's Bok Shil?
She's with Kyung Ho. She'll be home soon.
Why Kyung Ho?
Mr. Cha didn't come and the hall was in utter chaos.
Kyung Ho and Jeong Tae got Bok Shil out of there.
The article in the paper's all a lie, isn't it?
It is.
A fraud conned her into singing at a club...
and she ran away.
What's this about a club?
- Grandma, it's... - What?
Mom. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, Mom.
I trust you so don't be sorry.
Let's talk inside.
- Jeong Woo. - Yes?
- Take her inside. - Okay.
Kyung Ho, Choon Ja told me what happened.
Thank you.
It's fine. She's still shaken, so she'll need comforting.
Okay. You did well too, Choon Ja.
Thanks.
Choon Ja, you go home. Kyung Ho and I need to talk.
Okay.
You didn't see Mr. Cha?
We met. Someone called Hye Rin tipped off a reporter.
Hye Rin?
She's Congressman Oh's daughter. Did you know that?
No, I didn't.
Why didn't Mr. Cha show up?
Who cares if Hye Rin's father is a congressman?
He helped cover up Jeong Hoon's guilty by association charge.
So Mr. Hwang stopped him from coming.
What?
Mr. Cha said he or his uncle couldn't ignore his wishes.
He even said it was Jeong Hoon's fault that he couldn't come.
Stop crying.
Tell us the story about the club.
It's not true. Bok Shil was duped by a conman.
I went with this man who said he'd let me sing.
He took me to a club.
So I ran outside, Grandma.
Mr. Cha was there as a customer, saw me and helped me.
If he knew all that, why didn't he come to the press conference?
I was against you singing because I was afraid of these things.
Bok Shil did nothing wrong.
I'm not saying she did something wrong.
It's that people won't believe her.
We just have to find the conman. Then we can prove her innocence.
I'll do what I can to find him.
Yes.
If a sister's in trouble, her older brother must help.
Jeong Tae, did you see Mr. Cha?
No.
Today again
I swallow my sighs
I wander the streets
And alleys at night
I bet my life on just one thing, love
Don't call me names because I'm a man of the street
I look up at you as if you're the sun
A day will come when you see my love
Oh dear, that's terrible.
Is there something in the paper?
There's another article about Bok Shil singing at a club.
What?
(Singer Oh Se Ra)
Oh dear.
Dad, you haven't left yet?
Choon Ja, did you know about this?
It's not like that.
There's another article?
Kyung Ho, read this.
There's another article because of yesterday's ruined press conference.
I'm really worried about her.
It's not like that.
We know. Your mom just feels sorry for her.
That's right.
You go to work. I'll tell them.
See you.
- Take care. - Bye.
I'll explain what we couldn't at yesterday's press conference.
If you have any questions, take turns and ask one by one.
Me. Is the article in the paper true?
No.
My turn. Why do these articles keep showing up?
What's this called?
What do you call a mistake?
- A mistake? - A false report.
It means it's untrue.
That's it.
This is a false report. Okay?
But there's no smoke without fire.
That's right. There must be a reason these articles were printed.
Will you stop it?
- Okay. - Fine.
Don't get the wrong idea. Press conference over.
What? You changed the lead actress?
We decided to go with Hye Rin instead of Se Ra.
Prepare accordingly.
I'll explain everything. Don't change the lead actress.
Hello? Director?
They hired someone else as the lead?
Why didn't you show up yesterday?
I trusted you. Why didn't you come?
- Your brother didn't say? - My brother?
He didn't.
You'll find out anyway, so I'll tell the truth.
The man who covered up your father's defection is Hye Rin's father.
Hye Rin?
Her father's a congressman.
He helped us cover up your guilty by association charge.
That's why I couldn't come to the press conference.
I couldn't go against him.
You couldn't go against him because of Hye Rin?
Yes.
Because she's the one who...
told the press that you were at a club.
What?
Will she play the lead in the film too?
Yes.
(Daeguk Construction)
Kyung Ho.
Did you read about Se Ra?
You're the one who gave the press fake information.
I did that? That's nonsense.
I know you did. Don't make excuses.
Did you have to do that?
You made me angry.
What?
You did that because of me?
Yes.
How dare Se Ra get in my way of success?
She got you, the radio drama theme song, the film lead.
Why should I lose it all to her?
I really can't stand you.
Kyung Ho.
It's true that she was at a club.
Who told you that? Do you have his number?
How would I have the number of someone I met in the streets?
Is Se Ra that special?
Special enough that he won't even care for me?
I enjoyed the article.
Are you crazy?
Do you think you can crush me with such cheap tactics?
You're wrong. I won't go down as easily as you want me to.
How dare you? I'll make you pay for that!
Stop it, both of you. Stop it.
Will you stop it? What are you doing?
Hey! Do you think you're a match for me?
Doesn't she know who I am?
They were here?
Yes. Bok Shil said she met the fraud here.
Look carefully. You said you know his face.
I do.
He's not here.
- Are you sure? - Yes. He's not here.
Sit down for now.
He might show up if we wait long enough.
Don't worry.
I know what he looks like, so I'll find him...
and help you and Bok Shil.
Thanks. When you said you'd be Bok Shil's manager...
You laughed at the idea, didn't you?
It's okay. It's in the past.
I don't dig up the past and complain about it.
I never ask you about what you did with Yoon Joo.
I told you why I dated her.
I know. She was sick,
asked you for a few days and you couldn't say no.
You have to forget that I dated Tae Shik, okay?
Okay.
He's dead if I get my hands on him.
Oh dear.
Oh Jeong Hoon speaking.
Jeong Tae, any news?
We're at the cafe Bok Shil met the guy at.
We haven't seen him yet. We'll keep on looking.
Okay, keep it up.
I'll come over after work.
What did he say?
He's looking for the fraud who conned Bok Shil but it's not easy.
Hye Rin, the person who tipped off the reporters.
She lost the movie's lead role to Bok Shil...
and did it out of spite.
Even if she loses the role, she should clear her name.
Can't you ask Mr. Hwang to arrange...
a press conference to explain the truth?
Okay, I'll do that.
This is Daeguk's CEO's office.
This is the hospital that's treating Hwang Mi Jin for infertility.
I'm calling because Doctor Kim told me to contact Mr. Hwang.
- Infertility treatment? - Is Mr. Hwang not in?
I'm Ms. Hwang's husband. You can tell me instead.
Doctor Kim did as Ms. Hwang asked...
and found an infertility specialist in Italy.
She can come before she leaves to get the contact details.
Just a moment.
Mi Jin asked for an infertility specialist?
Jeong Hoon.
Okay.
Bye.
Who did you just talk to?
A nurse.
You're being treated for infertility?
It'll be a wrong number.
Why would I be treated for infertility?
The nurse called because Doctor Kim...
told her to call your father.
Why didn't you tell me?
If I did,
you won't give up on your son.
What about your grandma?
She'd want him registered as your son.
That's why I couldn't tell you.
You still should've told me.
What would you have done if I did?
Would you have divorced me?
How can you say that? We're married and...
We should tell each other and discuss such issues.
It's not that I can't get pregnant.
I just have a lower chance and I'm being treated for it.
Does your father know?
He told me not to tell you.
That was my plan too.
Are you disappointed? Because it's hard for me to have a baby?
That's not it.
Let's eat.
Why did you cook? I can do that.
I'm okay now.
I'll get well and get Min Su back.
Must you get him back?
Jeong Hoon's grandma said she'll give him back.
Did she really say that?
She'll give Min Su back?
Yes. I said she can register him under her family...
as long as she lets me raise him.
So I need to eat and get my energy back.
Okay. I give up trying to persuade you.
We decided to send Min Su back to Soon Young.
Did she come over?
It looks like she can't survive without the kid.
But we'll register him as our family,
so you need to accept that.
Thanks, Grandma.
Mom, Bok Shil and Jeong Tae are home.
I'd like to talk to Bok Shil.
Her CEO didn't show up at the press conference.
- Why didn't he? - Something came up.
Talk to Mr. Cha for her.
She should clear her name at least.
- Any news? - Nothing.
The only place I know is the cafe where we met at.
I don't know where or how to find him.
You won't be the only victim.
He seems to target people who want to debut.
Ask around at other agencies or singing academies.
Okay. I'll do that tomorrow.
What did your CEO say?
Will he do another press conference?
Jeong Hoon. Your departure was postponed?
Yes. I need to sort something out at work.
Is everything okay? Is there nothing wrong?
My father-in-law dealt with the guilty by association charge.
He did?
That's a relief.
Why do you look discontent?
I'm really grateful.
I am too. He saved our family. I'm grateful.
Bok Shil. I'm really sorry.
It's my fault the press conference got messed up.
Don't say that. It wasn't your fault.
I feel bad about saying this, but it's Dad's fault for defecting.
Right. But let's not blame him anymore.
He didn't defect on purpose.
That's right. I'm grateful that you said that.
You suffered way more than I did with that issue.
You're all grown up now.
I was worried, but I'm glad you're tough.
And I'll get even tougher.
Don't you worry.
And you too, okay?
Okay.
Bok Shil. I want you to quit going to Lucky Entertainment.
I'm not against you singing.
I'll find you another agent.
I'll think about that.
Okay.
Darling, why are you so late?
We've been waiting for you for ages.
Why? Is something wrong?
Jeong Hoon found out that Mi Jin's being treated for infertility.
What?
I went to your office to ask you to send us abroad sooner.
I saw him take a call...
from the hospital that was meant for you.
The last time I was there,
I'd asked Doctor Kim to find me a specialist in Italy.
Now that he knows, he won't want to give his son back.
What if he wants to register his son as his?
Don't worry about that. I'll make sure it doesn't happen.
You'll do that?
You'll sort out that baby's custody even after we move abroad?
Yes, I will.
Is he not home yet?
Did he go straight to his family after hearing about your treatment?
To tell them to keep the baby?
Why are you so late?
- I visited my family. - What for?
Did you tell them that Mi Jin's infertile?
I didn't.
Mi Jin's just having trouble becoming pregnant.
She's not infertile, so don't get ideas.
Let's talk.
I'll go upstairs.
Why did he visit his family if not to tell them that?
Did you really not tell your family?
I didn't.
Then why where you there?
Because of my sister.
Is that baby still there?
You must've felt different seeing him today.
Let's not talk about that.
(Jini Boutique)
Ms. Jung, did you pack some stock?
Yes. I'm packing everything that weren't customer orders.
Where will you be moving to?
I'm thinking of going to Italy. I'd always wanted to study design.
I see.
Hello?
Yes, Mother.
Right now?
Okay.
- Hello, ma'am. - Hi.
What's wrong, Mi Jin?
Mother called to ask if I can come over right now.
They want to talk.
What? What's there to talk about?
Did Jeong Hoon tell them that you're infertile?
That kid's still here?
You wanted to talk to Mi Jin, so I came along.
I'd like to hear what you have to say.
I'm glad you're here. I hoped to see you too...
to ask you for a favor.
What is this about?
Wait. A favor?
Jeong Hoon told you yesterday.
Do you want to ask Mi Jin to raise that baby?
Could you hear us out first?
There's nothing to hear. Mi Jin isn't infertile.
She's just having trouble getting pregnant.
What?
What are you talking about?
She's infertile?
Can you not have children?
Mi Jin. Ms. Cheon, what are you saying?
She's infertile?
You didn't know?
Isn't that what Jeong Hoon came to tell you yesterday?
He never said anything like that.
I asked to see Mi Jin to ask her to talk to Mr. Cha...
about my daughter.
She's infertile?
What was that about you being pregnant last time?
You said you miscarried. Were you not pregnant then?
- Grandma... - It's not that she can't have kids.
She's getting treated right now.
She will get pregnant soon.
I can't believe what I heard.
Since it came up, let's conclude Min Su's situation once and for all.
Mother.
Register him as Jeong Hoon's.
What?
Who says you can register him under Jeong Hoon and Mi Jin?
If Mi Jin's having trouble conceiving,
this is the only way to have an heir.
The baby's mom said I can register him under our family, so it's done.
Soon Young said that?
Mi Jin. We'll only register him as our family.
Soon Young will raise him.
We won't cause you any trouble.
I can't do that, Mother.
I can't accept that kid as Jeong Hoon's.
Jeong Hoon's our eldest son.
If you can't have children,
it's only right that he adopts a child to carry his name.
He must adopt? This is unbelievable.
If you want to do that, do it. Mi Jin just has to divorce him.
You threaten us with that all the time. Do as you want.
What? Do as we want?
Mother.
Get out of here. You're all too noisy.
Mi Jin! Oh no.
She's infertile?
And she still won't accept Min Su?
She doesn't want Jeong Hoon to carry on the family name.
My goodness.
Mi Jin, Mi Jin.
Are you angry with me?
Because I brought up your infertility?
Infertile, infertile! Will you stop saying that?
Okay, okay.
Is that old woman senile?
She's not scared of your divorcing.
I have to go somewhere. You go home.
Mi Jin, where are you going?
My goodness.
Uhm Soon Young!
Why are you here?
What are you up to?
What do you mean?
You said you'd let Jeong Hoon register your son as his.
You'll do that first,
wait until we get divorced, then reunite with his family?
Is that your plan?
It's not like that.
How is it not?
Aren't you using the kid as an excuse to get back with him?
I told you clearly that I'm not. Now get out.
You aren't going anywhere.
I have nothing more to say. Get out.
Uhm Soon Young.
Uhm Soon Young!
Where did you go?
To see Soon Young. I had to do something.
What did she say?
Will she really let Jeong Hoon's family register her kid?
I guess so. She didn't say anything. She acted so dignified.
I hate Jeong Hoon's family more than her.
You heard what his grandma said.
I said you're just struggling to get pregnant, that you aren't infertile,
and she talked about adoption right away.
She said that as if she's glad you're infertile.
People adopt strangers' kids,
so she thinks she can make you adopt Min Su.
She'll want you to raise him too later on.
I'd rather split up with Jeong Hoon...
than register him as our son.
I won't let that happen. Why should you raise someone else's kid?
Tell your dad and get him to sort it out.
No. I won't wait until Dad does something.
I'll sort it out myself.
Mi Jin. Where are you going now?
Min Su.
Oh dear.
Gosh.
There's no more formula.
Just a moment.
Oh dear. I'll get you some food.
Grandma, we need to talk.
Jeong Hoon's our eldest son.
If you can't have children,
it's only right that he adopts a child to carry his name.
She said that as if she's glad you're infertile.
People adopt strangers' kids,
so she thinks she can make you adopt Min Su.
She'll want you to raise him too later on.
(Through the Waves)
Who'd take him other than Min Su?
She said we could register him...
and she changed her mind.
Are you forcing yourself to eat?
It's about my sister.
Don't give up, Bok Shil.
Give up something small for the greater good.
Don't disrespect me like this.
- Min Su isn't here? - He's with your family.
Why did you keep him for so long?
This wouldn't have happened if you gave him back!
I have a strange feeling.
I did nothing wrong.
Min Su disappeared.
Why should I become unhappy because of that kid?
