Jeong Hoon's late today.
Is he very busy?
Don't wait for him.
Don't be so cold.
He saved Min Su's life.
I'm so grateful for what Min Su's dad did.
My goodness.
"Min Su's dad"? Do you mean Jeong Hoon?
Ms. Hwang...
How did she find us here?
Ms. Hwang.
You stay here.
Wait. Talk to me.
What happened was... Where should I start?
Uhm Soon Young.
Hadn't she left?
She did. She did disappear.
But then Min Su got very sick.
He needed surgery, and that's why she returned to Seoul.
But then...
Mi Jin.
You two can talk it out.
Mi Jin.
Did she leave? Is she gone?
She met Min Su's dad in the corridor.
Jeong Hoon?
Yes. Why did he come just then?
What should we do? What now that she knows?
Oh, dear...
Jeong Hoon.
Why is Soon Young here?
Why did you come here?
You said Soon Young had disappeared without a word.
Why is she here?
How could you come here to see her?
The baby got sick.
So she came back.
You said it was over.
You said you'd end it with her and start over with me.
Was that a lie? Did you deceive me?
The boy needed surgery, and...
he had a rare blood type.
So they contacted me.
I gave him a transfusion.
I was here today to see how the surgery went.
Behind my back...
you did all that?
I couldn't ignore a sick child.
Stop it.
Stop it!
Mi Jin. Mi Jin.
(Jini Boutique)
- Mi Jin. - Why follow me?
Go to your son!
- I'm sorry, Mi Jin. - Go.
Soon Young will be waiting for you.
Mi Jin.
What's wrong?
What's the matter?
Mom.
Mom... Mom...
Jeong Hoon.
You look terrible. Is something wrong?
Jeong Tae.
Mi Jin found out.
About what? What does she know?
She knows Min Su's in the hospital?
Darn it.
Jeong Tae, I'm really sorry.
Can you go and ask if Min Su can be transferred?
Is that possible?
I'm wary because it's too soon after the surgery,
but we can't leave him there in case someone else comes.
I want to ask myself but I'm not able to.
Okay. I know what you mean.
Doctor, can Min Su go home?
Go home?
When he had surgery yesterday?
What about transferring to another hospital? Can we do that?
Doctor, something came up, and we can't stay here.
We operated on him.
If he's transferred and something goes wrong,
who would take responsibility for that?
Doctor.
If you really want to leave, sign a memorandum.
A memo that says if the patient falls ill...
after the transfer, you will be held responsible.
Jeong Tae, what should we do?
Jeong Hoon's wife found out.
He told me to ask about a transfer.
I think the doctor has a point.
Right now, we should put Min Su's health first.
Jeong Tae.
Can you stay with my aunt and Min Su for a while?
I need to go out.
Soon Young, where are you going? Oh, dear.
Ms. Hwang.
How dare you come here? Get out.
What are you doing?
I'm really sorry for everything.
I deserve to die.
I really did leave Seoul to live quietly.
But my baby got very sick,
and I had to reach out to save him.
He needed surgery immediately,
but couldn't get it because of his rare blood type.
Jeong Hoon had no choice but to help...
when he heard the situation.
Ms. Hwang. Jeong Hoon did nothing wrong.
I contacted him because I was so anxious.
Did you come here out of concern for him?
Are you begging me to save him?
It's not that.
There was nothing else we could do.
I'm just telling you the truth.
Get out.
I can't stand looking at your face.
Please forgive us.
I will never see Jeong Hoon again.
I'll leave again once Min Su can leave the hospital.
I'll live quietly where no one knows us.
Mi Jin.
Why are you here?
What are you doing?
Mi Jin, are you crying because of her?
Is that why you called me?
Mom, let's go home.
You should leave. Get out.
Hey! Are you all right?
Mi Jin, what's wrong? What happened?
Ms. Uhm's son had surgery.
Mr. Oh gave him blood and visited the baby.
Ms. Hwang was already crying when she came in.
He did what? I should just...
Let's just go home.
Okay. Let's go home for now.
Get some sleep.
The sleeping pills should kick in.
Come in.
I have something to say.
What is it?
To tell the truth,
my son...
Are you talking about that woman's child?
How dare you describe him as your son in my presence?
Honey.
You scumbag.
How could you do that to our daughter?
Do you think that little of Mi Jin?
What's all this about?
Mi Jin's at death's door because of him.
She saw his son and that woman.
Do you know how much she cried?
Honey, Mi Jin had no strength to walk home,
so she called me crying and asked me to come for her.
I gave her some pills to put her to sleep.
How long did you stay with her with the excuse of...
giving your son blood?
How long will you torture Mi Jin like this?
Honey, I can't stand this anymore.
Let Mi Jin get a divorce!
I get what you mean, so stop. I need time to think.
You two can leave.
Dong Cheol, you fool.
Did you tell Mi Jin about the hospital?
I told you to keep quiet. Why didn't you listen?
She seemed to know about everything already.
I couldn't deny it.
You should've denied knowledge to the end!
I can't work because I'm worried about Min Su.
Leave it. I'll do it later.
Ms. Cheon.
You're both at home.
Jeong Hoon visited the hospital because of his sick child.
Have you two been there too?
My goodness. I was right.
You knew about it already.
Ms. Cheon. It's not like that.
How long will you deceive us?
Your whole family made us look like fools.
How long will you let that woman stay around?
Please calm down. We never condoned this.
I'd rather you say nothing.
You two are just watching while your son is having an affair!
How can you say that?
What else would you call it then?
He wanted to succeed,
so he married my daughter, but loves his ex.
Why does my daughter deserve this?
All she did was love your son!
Jeong Hoon couldn't have ignored a sick child.
Yes, Ms. Cheon.
How could he ignore a sick child who needs blood to have surgery?
Could you please be merciful and forgive him this once?
Be quiet.
We'll get them divorced. We won't put up with this anymore!
Oh, dear...
That's what I came here to say. Just so you know.
Ms. Cheon.
Dad, I'm going out.
My gosh. Are you off to see Tae Shik?
Do you want some money?
No thanks. See you.
- Bye. - Bye.
I wish I were her.
I could date and get money from Dad.
That's just nonsense.
My goodness. What should we do now?
What's wrong?
I went across the alley because I heard a commotion.
Jeong Hoon's son just had surgery.
Jeong Hoon gave him his blood.
What? Why would a newborn need surgery?
My goodness, that's so sad.
How sick was he that he'd need surgery?
That's why Ae Shim hasn't been at work.
I feel so sorry for her.
There's a disaster.
Jeong Hoon's mother-in-law came and screamed that he's cheating.
She said she'll get him divorced.
His in-laws would be furious.
Oh, dear...
That's why we should let Kyung Ho marry Bok Shil, the girl he likes.
If we force him to marry another, something like this will happen.
Why would you talk about that now?
What's all that?
Paperwork from the production company we merged with.
Put them on my desk.
- Stack them into categories. - Sure.
I have a job today. I'm ready.
We should go.
Choon Ja's not coming?
She doesn't want to be my manager.
I thought she'd be pleased.
Okay then, I'll find someone else. Let's go.
Bok Shil.
You brat. Why are you here?
To be your manager, okay?
You said no. Your dad said no too.
I'll talk to my dad.
I'll be your manager.
I'll do it out of spite,
just so you become more famous.
What do I do today?
We're going to a campaign event to promote snack foods.
Let's go. I'll explain on the way.
Choon Ja, you can carry Se Ra's bag.
Okay. Come on out.
Why did she just leave?
Let's go, sir.
Yong Chil.
Why are you following me and my brother?
I didn't do anything like that.
Mr. Jo told you what to do.
Does Mr. Jo report to Daeguk's Mr. Hwang?
I don't know what you're saying.
If you keep this up, I'll take a stand too.
I won't let it go that you tampered with the alcohol.
It really wasn't me. I've been so busy recently.
Mr. Jo and Lucky Entertainment's Cha Sang Pil were in cahoots...
to take over some kind of production company.
They took over a production company?
Yes.
They went in and took it by force.
I played a huge part in that.
I strangled the CEO who refused to give in at first.
I do all sorts of dirty work for Mr. Jo.
Do you know that?
How long will you be his dog?
- What? - Wake up.
I'm giving you advice as a friend.
I have no idea what you're talking about.
Keep your mouth shut about the alcohol that I swindled.
Then I'll stop following your brother.
Let me ask you something in exchange.
You said long ago that Mr. Jo took me back to watch me.
Then you murmured if Deguk's...
Mr. Hwang really doesn't know the truth.
Were you talking about my accident at the demolition site?
Why would you bring up the past?
Does Mr. Hwang know I wasn't the killer?
Is that true?
What are you talking about?
I know you feel wronged and all that,
but don't try to look into Mr. Jo.
You could get into trouble again.
That accident. It wasn't me, was it?
You know the truth.
I do not, okay?
I have nothing more to say about that.
Stop trying to get more out of me.
(Bok Shim's Snackfoods)
(Improve your eating habits)
Well done. Congressman Jung, you did well too.
I should do what I can for my country.
This young lady worked very hard.
She carried around heavy trays...
and smiled while promoting flour products.
What is your name?
I'm Oh Se Ra.
She's our new singer.
She sang a radio drama theme song and was on TV.
Oh Se Ra.
It was nice to meet you. I hope to see you again.
- Let's go. - Yes, sir.
- Are you tired? - No, it was fun.
I thought it was something special.
It's just like delivering soup.
See you.
Thanks, Choon Ja.
My goodness. Was she really here as your manager?
Kyung Ho.
- Are you off work? - Yes.
Let's have a drink.
Is it about Bok Shil?
Sorry. I haven't been paying you much attention.
Jeong Hoon's son had surgery, and he gave his blood?
How did you find out?
His mother-in-law came to work.
I felt terrible seeing him getting yelled at.
Is the kid okay?
Jeong Hoon drives me crazy.
Why do things keep going wrong?
The CEO of Bok Shil's agency.
What's he like?
Mr. Jo from the cabaret helped him take over a production company.
I think they used thugs.
What do you mean?
They used brute force.
You know Yong Chil.
He bragged about how he played a part.
Jeong Hoon and I rejected his proposal.
That's how he took the company?
Mr. Cha's really scary.
When we were bidding for the Hoseo Dam contract,
he leaked our information to threaten Jeong Hoon.
What do you mean to threaten Jeong Hoon?
I think Mr. Cha wants Daeguk Construction.
It looked like Jeong Hoon would inherit it,
and he couldn't let that happen.
Kyung Ho.
Did you let him date Bok Shil knowing he's like that?
The news about Jeong Hoon shocks me,
but I'm about to get angry with you.
I know Bok Shil left you first,
but if you knew what Mr. Cha was like,
you should've protected her.
Do you really like her?
Forget about that.
What's your CEO like?
Jeong Hoon's father-in-law.
I met him just once.
He seems like a gentleman.
But knowing his connection to Mr. Jo makes me think otherwise.
What do you think?
What do I know?
He started from scratch and made his own fortune.
What he did in his youth,
and how he established Daeguk Construction...
Almost no one in the industry knows of his past.
Really?
Why are you so late? I was waiting for you.
I met Kyung Ho for a drink. What's wrong?
Jeong Hoon's mother-in-law was here.
I don't know how she heard, but she knew about Min Su's surgery.
Jeong Tae, you're home.
My goodness.
Did you talk to your brother?
Don't worry too much, Grandma.
He wouldn't be pleased to know that you're worried.
We're so frustrated. It's worse because we can't visit.
I don't know how Jeong Hoon survives each day.
I can't be of any help. What should we do?
Grandma. To be honest, I blame Dad.
If he hadn't defected to the North,
Jeong Hoon's life wouldn't be this twisted, would it?
You're right. This is all on your dad.
I know that very well.
- You're home. - Keep playing.
I know you feel wronged and all that,
but don't try to look into Mr. Jo.
You could get into trouble again.
He started from scratch and made his own fortune.
What he did in his youth...
and how he established Daeguk Construction...
Almost no one in the industry knows of his past.
Why are you so late?
Do you know the state Mi Jin is in?
I would love to punch you in the face.
Go upstairs.
Mi Jin, get up and have some gruel.
Honey, shouldn't we call the family doctor?
Please leave.
What's wrong with you?
I thought you'd gone to that woman.
Leave.
Don't you care about Mi Jin's fever or condition.
Go back to her!
Will you all just get out?
Please get out.
Mi Jin.
Don't touch me.
What should we do about her?
I've never seen her like that.
I'd rather she scream in a rage.
She's already hurt because she's almost infertile.
Now she saw her husband...
fawning over his ex and their baby. No wonder she's upset.
That's why she's worse.
Let's get them divorced.
The other woman will stay around using the sick baby as an excuse.
Honey.
What's your priority, the company or your daughter?
If you're worried about the company,
there's Sang Pil, isn't there?
I said I'd think about it so stop nagging.
If Mi Jin wants a divorce,
don't think of saying no, okay?
(Golden Chariot Cabaret)
(Bok Shil's Snackfoods)
Hello, Ok Boon.
You're here for lunch already?
No, I dropped by while I was out on work.
I heard about Jeong Hoon yesterday.
His son got sick and got surgery.
You must feel terrible.
I'm sure Jeong Hoon feels worse.
His own son is sick,
and he can't be there for them. It must break his heart.
Right.
As parents, our hearts sink...
whenever we hear our children coughing.
Jeong Hoon's a dad now, and he must feel the same.
I feel terrible too.
He can barely breathe right now, and...
as his mom, there's nothing I can do.
He ended up like that because he had terrible parents.
His dad ruined his life by disappearing to the North.
As if that wasn't bad enough, his own mom...
told him he's the man of the household...
and burdened him since he was young.
The more I think,
the worse I feel for Jeong Hoon.
Mi Jin, How do you feel?
I brought water. Take your medicine.
Why won't you go to work?
How can I when you're sick?
Take your medicine or do you want gruel?
I'll ask Mother for some.
I guess Min Su's dad can't visit anymore.
His wife found out so I bet her family's a mess right now.
I feel sorry for him too.
He wasn't a bad guy.
Soon Young.
Grandma.
Why are you here?
My goodness.
How did this tiny thing survive all that pain?
My goodness.
Is he okay now?
Yes.
You've been through a lot too. Well done.
I blamed you when I heard...
you'd disappeared with a sick kid.
But your own child went through a huge operation.
You must've been so stressed out.
You did well.
Min Su's dad saved our lives.
Thanks for that.
My goodness.
I'll get going then.
I saw Min Su's well, and that's good enough.
- You'll really just leave? - Yes.
Take care, Soon Young.
You could walk me out.
I'll do that.
Don't take me wrong.
I'm saying this for Soon Young's sake.
You need to marry her off...
so she can live a normal life.
She won't want to leave Min Su to start over,
but as her aunt, you have to force her to.
Do you think I never thought about that?
You don't know what I put up with because I'm still single.
But Soon Young has a baby.
That keeps me up at night.
You should give Min Su to us...
so she can start over.
Let's do that.
Who will raise Min Su?
Will Jeong Hoon's wife adopt him?
She can't do that right now,
but don't you worry. If all fails, we have Jeong Tae.
- The floor manager? - Yes.
We'll register him as Jeong Tae's son and raise him right.
You talk to Soon Young for me.
What took you so long?
Did she say anything? Did she mention Min Su?
Soon Young.
She isn't completely wrong.
Aunt.
I never told you but...
Stop it. I don't want to listen.
Soon Young. My heart breaks when I see you worry on your own.
What we just went through...
makes me think you can't manage on your own.
I said stop it.
Neither of us have any money or anyone to rely on.
You'd feel terrible,
but living with them might be better for Min Su.
Get out. And don't come back.
- Let me do it. - No. I'll do it.
Why aren't you at work?
Are you looking after Mi Jin for fear that you'll get divorced?
Mi Jin.
Please leave, Mom.
I want to talk to Jeong Hoon.
What more is there to say?
Forget about it and eat this.
Mom.
Fine.
Mi Jin, I'd like you to eat before you talk.
You won't go to see your baby?
Why hold back when you want to go?
Jeong Hoon.
I want to hear how you really feel.
Tell me...
exactly how you feel and don't lie.
If I let you go,
then do you want to live with...
Soon Young and that baby?
(Through the Waves)
You'll go to Soon Young. You won't say no.
Stop thinking that I'll always forgive you.
Divorce isn't that easy.
I want Min Su gone.
Soon Young and the baby. Can you not see them again?
Why can't you answer?
They're Jeong Tae's in-laws. How can we frame them, right?
Congressman Jang said that?
- I'll like him as a man. - Oh Se Ra.
I'll go to the hospital today.
- My gosh! - Let's break up.
I like her.
