(Episode 43)
I know you should be getting some rest on the weekend.
I'm sorry for calling you out.
It's okay.
Did you want to say something to me?
I wanted to apologize for yesterday, the rendezvous of the three of us.
That's not something for you to apologize.
Problem is, which one of us...
do you trust more?
I believe you.
What?
I'm pretty sure she is lying about your abduction.
But I think she's telling the truth...
regarding Mr. Seo's matter or when it comes to handing over...
the evidence of Miseong's corruption.
You sound as if you know Hwa Kyung better than me.
Come with me.
I couldn't take the evidence from her...
because she suddenly collapsed last time.
I'm going to go get it now.
Why do I have to go?
I'm going to do this with you from now on.
You helped me out when it came to Mr. Seo's case,
and I think it's better...
for me to go with you when I meet Hwa Kyung.
You don't have to do that.
The fact that the Hwa Kyung I know is different...
from the Hwa Kyung you think she is,
- doesn't mean that we have to... - I want to.
I want to go with you.
Here's your food.
Enjoy.
You look worn out,
my less-than-perfect second son.
Why are you worried about the son of a watermelon seller?
You're talking nonsense again.
Come here.
Why? Are you going to hit me again?
If you have eyes to see, look at us.
You have big, round eyes with double eyelids,
a sharp nose, and thick and sexy lips.
Anyone can tell that you're Heo Yong Sim's son.
I turned the entire City of Seoul upside down when I had you.
I screamed so much.
You're now slim and slender...
because you finally took after me,
but when you were born, you were a huge baby of four kilograms.
Giving birth to you was really tough.
Yes, I'm sure you'll need more time to spill the truth.
I'll wait, Mom.
- You idiot. - Gosh.
Look at this.
You always hit me because I'm adopted.
- Goodness. - You're unbelievable.
Mom, I'll wait to hear the truth later.
Can you pack up some blowfish soup for me?
I have to take it somewhere.
Where? For a woman?
I left her a text message, but I guess she hasn't checked it.
What's her room number again? Let's go up together.
She's in room 3412.
I should wait here.
She might come to the cafe.
Okay, then.
You're still a fake.
Now that I know that,
I can't keep you close.
I couldn't live with you.
How can I keep seeing you...
if you aren't my daughter?
- Hwa Kyung. - Hwa Kyung.
Hwa Kyung.
No, Hwa Kyung.
- Move aside. - Honey.
If I die,
will everything finally end?
Will my fear and anxiety disappear?
Will I finally find my peace?
I just wanted to be happy.
Is that wrong?
Why is that bad? Why?
Will I have to die like this?
I can't do that.
I need to live an even better life for those people...
who abandoned me and hurt me to see.
I will rise up to the ends of the sky.
I can't die like this.
I will survive to the end. To the end!
Hwa Kyung, are you okay?
Are you all right?
Why are you here?
What about you? Why didn't you come out?
Like you were determined to die?
Hwa Kyung.
How dare you save me?
How dare...
you think I tried to kill myself?
Whatever the reason,
I'm glad you're okay.
This will seem like a show to you.
It'll seem fake.
You're shivering.
Let's go. You could get sick.
Hwa Kyung.
Take me to my room.
The phone is turned off. Please...
What's going on?
Hwa Kyung isn't in her room...
and Producer Yoon won't pick up.
Woo Jung.
Mr. Yoon, why are you here?
You brought Hwa Kyung food?
She tends to skip meals.
She must still be suffering physically and mentally.
Why are you here?
Do Bin?
- What'll you do? - What do you think?
Figure out what's going on.
What do you think happened?
Yoon Do Bin, you scumbag.
You're a man too, is that it?
You're a jerk who falls for a pretty woman too...
and you showed off like that?
Don't you know him at all?
He came here with me to get something from her.
Is that what you think after what you saw?
A man and a woman walked side by side...
right into a hotel elevator that went up.
I bet those two...
What'll you do then?
Will you chase up to her room, kick the door in...
and scream for them both to come out?
Or will you steal a master key...
and see what they got up to?
Do you want to?
Yes, I want to do that.
I won't let it happen.
You should feel better now.
Thank you.
Why did you do what you did?
What?
You seemed like a good swimmer. Why...
I guess I wanted to be at ease.
If it all just ended,
I wouldn't have to hate anyone.
I wouldn't have to be greedy.
Maybe I really did just want it all to end.
I'm sorry about earlier.
Did it hurt?
It's fine.
Can I borrow your phone?
Mine's dead.
Why?
I brought Woo Jung.
She'll be at the cafe.
Let's think about the two of us now.
You always refuse me.
And I always want to seduce you.
Hwa Kyung.
How do you refuse me so easily?
To you, am I not even a woman?
As if that's possible.
When someone as beautiful and charming as you seduce me,
I'd fall for you.
You're too dangerous.
Fatally so.
Where's the file you promised?
No. Hwa Kyung's mine.
Do Bin, you'll pay for this.
No.
Hwa Kyung wants him, not me.
Jae Bin.
Why are you here?
Yoon Jae Bin.
You scumbag. You know how I feel about Hwa Kyung.
What did you do?
What do you mean?
Oh, you're a man too?
Who loves beautiful women?
But you act like you're so cool and uninterested.
- I think you misunderstood. - Did I?
Get a grip, Jae Bin!
So what if Producer Yoon and Hwa Kyung like each other?
Why should I care?
Seriously. Han Woo Jung, wake up.
You should've said that...
you saved her from drowning.
What? Did you give me a chance to?
What is love?
What is sibling rivalry?
If you weren't my own brother,
I'd have beaten you to a pulp.
Are you sure you didn't get up to no good?
Stop it, will you?
Do you really want a beating?
Let me see.
- It must've hurt a lot. - Yes, it did.
You threw a pretty mean punch.
I always threw a better punch than you did.
Are you bragging now?
Woo Jung must've misunderstood too.
I think so. 100 percent.
What?
Yeon Hee thinks Hwa Kyung was...
thrown out for another reason?
Yes.
And she told you to find out what that reason is?
Yes, sir.
What shall I do?
What do you think will happen if she finds out the truth?
She'd be gravely shocked.
Then you know what to tell her, don't you?
I do, sir.
There's no other reason?
That's correct.
Just because she had Woo Jung abducted,
my father told Hwa Kyung to stay at a hotel?
That's right.
What are you doing?
Can't you see what I'm doing?
You want to leave home?
I'll go to Hwa Kyung.
You can go find your daughter, Han Woo Jung.
Honey.
Where are you going?
- Let go of me. - Go get Chairman Oh.
Okay.
What are you doing?
Can't you tell?
I'm going to move out with Hwa Kyung.
Nonsense!
I never knew that you were this harsh and cold.
How can you kick out your only granddaughter...
just at Han Joo Won's words?
For an abduction? Haven't you done that either?
What about you? Haven't you done that because of his order?
Was abducting someone such a huge crime in Miseong?
Dad, have you always lived such a moral and righteous life?
If you want to move out, get out.
Chairman Oh.
Just remember that you won't be able to return if you go out now.
Do you think I won't?
You said Miseong is more important than me, didn't you?
But to me, Hwa Kyung is more important...
than you or Miseong.
If you don't bring her back home,
you will never see me again.
- That little... - Honey, don't do this.
Why are you doing this in front of the chairman?
You're just like him too.
Hwa Kyung isn't a kid that we just adopted.
How can you be so calm?
Every single day I live without her is driving me crazy.
Don't you know what she means to me?
How can you let him take her away from me?
Dad.
Please bring her back.
I'm heartbroken.
I couldn't live a day...
No, I couldn't live a minute or a second without her.
Dad.
If you're going to kick her out,
you might as well abandon me too.
Chairman Oh, something bad might happen to her at this rate.
Mr. Kwon.
Bring that kid back.
- Yes, Chairman Oh. - Goodness.
It's all right now.
Hwa Kyung will come back.
Thank you, Grandpa.
I just gave in for a moment because of your mom.
But that still doesn't change you aren't my real granddaughter.
I still do not wish to see you.
I know.
But I still thank you with all my heart.
I will be a better daughter for my mom, dad,
and to you.
Just because you are back in this house,
don't think that things will be the same.
I already took back all of your shares.
You're nothing but a puppet who has to put on a show for life.
Will you be okay with living such a life?
Yes, Grandpa.
Don't ever let your mom find out the truth. Just do that.
If you do that, I won't ever kick you out again.
You may go.
Mom, I'm not in the mood to shop.
I have to go back to the TV station too.
I'm on my lunch break.
I know how you feel.
Grandpa isn't like how he used to be, right?
But don't lose your heart.
You'll get another chance.
Take a look around.
This is one of the shops that you'll be in charge of.
I'll be in charge...
- of Miseong Apparel? - Yes, of course.
It's been forever since Dad lost Grandpa's favor,
and even if we do find your uncle's son,
how can I trust someone like him to bring our company up?
Your grandpa always told us...
to look far and ahead.
But what's important is what Grandpa wants.
I'm going to win him over...
for your sake.
We already have such a shining jewel right here.
He can't suddenly treat you coldly.
I won't have that.
I have pushed away...
your dad from the deepest part of my heart.
You're the only one for me now.
Me too.
I won't forgive...
anyone who gives you a tough time and who hurts you.
I'll protect you.
Come on. I feel reassured just to hear you say that.
These are the new products of this season.
Choose a few of them you like.
- What about this one? - I like it.
- It's pretty. - Try it on.
Woo Jung.
I called you many times. Why didn't you pick up?
I've been busy.
- About yesterday... - I'm sorry.
People in my office are looking for me.
She definitely got a wrong idea.
(I report on the staged production of "Missing Memories".)
Woo Jung, look at this.
What is it?
Hello. I am someone...
who was on "Missing Memories" as Go Soon Deok,
a program hosted by Han Joo won.
Back then, Ms. Kang Yeong Ji was looking for her mother,
and I appeared on the program as her rmother.
But this is far from the truth. It's been staged.
Woo Jung, do you know anything about this?
No.
Is something going on? Why is it so serious?
Hwa Kyung.
It's bad news for "Missing Memories".
Someone who was on the program...
uploaded a confession video saying that it was staged.
What? What's going on?
It's the program that you almost went on.
You know who Go Soon Deok is, right?
That woman was an actress.
No way.
If the program was really staged,
what will happen, Ms. Jeong?
If it was really staged, the program may get discontinued.
That's not all.
The next chief of broadcasting...
had to quit his job because he faked an interview.
Don't say a word...
until we find out the truth.
Don't let the rumor get bigger.
A staged mother? What is this about?
Ms. Go was a fake?
- Did you see the video too? - Yes.
Mr. Choi sent me the link.
What happened?
If the program was staged,
that means we staged it.
That's what she claims.
I can't believe this.
She won't pick up, right?
We tried to get her many times too.
All we did was find the real mother...
and let her meet the daughter.
I have no idea what's going on.
What happened?
Why is Ms. Go a fake?
Does that mean she acted like she was her real mother?
Did you call Ms. Go?
She won't pick up.
Ms. Lee.
You found her.
What happened?
I'm really flustered too.
I got a report, then went to find her in Anyang.
And she said that she was Ms. Kang's real mother.
How can this happen?
We have to meet Ms. Go no matter what we do.
Should I go to the bathhouse in Anyang?
Yes, this is Han Joo Won.
Who?
Ms. Go?
Where are you?
You just want to see me?
What?
Don't just sit there. Say something.
How do you know the secretary of...
Miseong Group's chairman?
I used to know him a long time ago.
How so?
How would you know a rich chairman's secretary?
Before I emigrated to Canada,
I worked briefly as a secretary at a company.
He was my superior.
Just in case,
does my son have something to do with the Miseong family?
Not at all. There's nothing like that.
Then why do you want to work here?
What are you up to?
I'm not up to anything.
Before I return to Canada,
I want to make some extra cash.
Extra cash? Do you expect me to believe that?
I don't believe that either.
Tell the truth why you want to stay here.
Then we can discuss it and help if we can.
Tell us about our kid's real family.
Be honest.
We're out of tea to serve our customers.
I'll go and get some.
Right. We need tea.
Do you think that our kid...
is involved with Miseong Group?
I don't like what you're suggesting.
Do you want him to be their grandson?
If it must happen, we could wish for better.
A rich would be much better than a poor one.
I should call you Heo Young Sim because that means vanity.
Even if they're the richest of the rich,
they can't have him.
You bet. I never said they can.
You asked to see me?
Where's Hwa Kyung right now?
Pardon?
The real Hwa Kyung.
My poor granddaughter.
Where did you bury
her? She was cremated.
I burned her with...
her favorite toys and belongings so she wouldn't feel lonely.
Lead the way.
A grandfather wants to see his granddaughter.
Of course.
You're going out?
Mr. Shin and I were going somewhere.
I'll come too.
Why tag along when we're just going to meet a client?
Yes. You don't need to come with us.
Let's go.
He's taking just Myung Joon to see a client?
Secretary Min, come in.
Do you know where my father and husband are going?
I don't. They didn't tell me.
Okay.
(Shin Hwa Kyung)
My baby.
I didn't know you were here all alone.
You must've hated me so much.
I'm sorry.
Hwa Kyung.
My puppy.
(Secret and Lies)
Do you want to get dirty?
Are you asking me for money?
Keep your mouth shut.
Hello?
Chairman Oh wants to see me?
You don't need to explain.
Do you really not care if I become...
something other than just colleagues with Hwa Kyung?
Your mom's strange?
You're impudent and disgusting.
Mom.
Get out of this house!
