You're watching "Challenge Announcer" on MBS.
This is the second mission.
Present yourself with an object.
Ms. Shin Hwa Kyung and Ms. Han Woo Jung are up next.
First, it's Hwa Kyung's turn.
A shot of espresso is concentrated coffee.
You can create a variety of coffees...
depending on how you use this shot of espresso.
I, Shin Hwa Kyung, will become an announcer like this espresso,
who never loses her taste while creating many different flavors.
Is this a coincidence?
Both of you chose espresso cups.
But the content is different.
My cup is filled with sikhye.
The same cup can become different depending on what it holds.
I may not seem as qualified when I'm compared...
to other contestants.
However, I want to reach the viewers...
with familiarity and comfortability...
by filling my cup...
with friendliness and humbleness.
She put sikhye in an espresso cup.
That was an unexpected idea.
Let us announce the top five candidates...
who will make it to the final round.
Ms. Go Eun Sung. Congratulations.
Mr. Kim Young Chan.
- Thank you. - Next,
Ms. Na Joo Yeon.
("Challenge Announcer")
We only have two more people left.
Even I'm getting nervous.
The final two candidates are...
Ms. Shin Hwa Kyung and Ms. Han Woo Jung.
Congratulations.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
I can't even imagine making it this far with my qualifications...
if it wasn't for my friend, Hwa Kyung.
She's a friend...
who helped me realize what my dream is...
and how I shine brightly in front of a microphone.
Their friendship...
- Thank you. - is absolutely beautiful.
Ms. Shin, can we hear from you too?
There is someone that I'd like to thank.
It's Ms. Han Joo Won, my role model and mentor.
Oh, Ms. Han is actually here.
Could I ask you to come up here?
Thank you, Ms. Han.
- Congratulations. - You two don't seem like...
a mentor and a mentee,
- It's thanks to you. - but like a mom and a daughter.
Congratulations.
- Congratulations, Hwa Kyung. - You too. Congratulations.
Let's go somewhere fancy and celebrate together.
That sounds great.
This isn't a fancy place.
Why not? Your home is the most comfortable place in the world.
You always act like my mom's little pet.
That's why he said, "You two are like a mom and a daughter."
"You two look similar."
That's why.
I should turn in my resignation as your daughter, Mom.
I'm the one who wants to resign as your mom.
If I could've chosen my daughter,
I wouldn't have chosen you.
Are you saying you would've had a girl like Hwa Kyung?
Precisely.
She's right. Woo Jung, you'd better get ready.
What if I make it and you don't...
during the final round?
I might as well become your daughter, Ms. Han.
Go ahead.
Then I'll go be your mom's daughter.
Listen to you two.
You can't change moms like that.
Miseong Construction has been creating a slush fund...
through our welfare foundation for the last 10 years.
And I believe a portion of that slush fund...
has already been given to influential politicians.
Do you have evidence?
Of course.
And the evidence I have...
is only the tip of the iceberg.
Then do you believe that Oh Yeon Hee,
the vice chairman of Miseong group...
and chief director of Miseong Foundation,
is responsible for this?
Vice Chairman Oh is the first person to be responsible.
(An interview with a member of Miseong Group)
But behind her, there are President Shin and Chairman Oh...
Don't worry, Dad.
He already took measures with the prosecution.
Why is Mr. Seo throwing a fit?
We found out that Mr. Seo has been embezzling money...
during the process of expanding our overseas branch,
so he was asked to resign.
I understand why he's throwing a fit.
He gave his entire life to this place.
You can't just fire him for pocketing a few dollars.
- Dad. - You can't fire...
a junior managing director on behalf of your own decision.
What were you doing?
Yeon Hee has been busy with the foundation.
"Yeon Hee"? It's Ms. Oh.
I apologize.
Ms. Oh has been busy.
You can't ignore the system just because you two are married.
I asked him to fire Mr. Seo.
Look here. You don't ask him to do things.
You order him, get it?
Yes, Chairman Oh.
Mr. Shin.
Go find Mr. Seo and bring him.
Yes, Chairman Oh.
You need to manage your company well.
I know you're on salary,
but you still have to do your job.
Grandpa, I'm home.
Goodness, there you are, my baby.
Is something bothering you?
You don't look very well.
Grandpa, your shoulders are really stiff.
- Goodness. - How is that?
Your stress just flew away, right?
Yes, you're right.
My goodness.
You're the only one who brightens up my heart.
- Mom, how did I do today? - What?
- For reals? - Yes, for reals.
I didn't know you spoke like that too.
Even a professional show host doesn't always use proper words.
You have to stay up to date with these things...
to make the shows more interesting.
Wait, what about Woo Cheol's dinner?
I already made it.
That's my girl. Thumbs up.
It's about time he came.
You can do your cucumber facial massage.
I'll get him.
Really?
Your skin looked a bit dry today.
Things aren't the same.
You must continuously...
take care of yourself to look younger.
- Okay? - Sure, my nagging princess.
Is something going on?
It looked like Grandpa was in a bad mood.
You don't have to be concerned. It's about work.
In that case, I should know.
It'll become my work in the future.
We'll take care of it.
Anyway, Mom, why did you want me home early?
Right, you have a blind date...
with the youngest son of Seongjin Group.
A blind date?
Their youngest son seems smarter than the oldest and the second.
He usually deals with buyers from overseas,
and he has great performance.
The youngest son of Seongjin Group...
is mentioned from time to time in businessmen's gatherings too.
He sounds good enough to possibly become the heir.
Do you want me to meet this guy?
Yes, and it's not just for me.
- It's for you too. - I'm fine if it makes you happy.
Hwa Kyung.
Isn't that you?
Isn't this why live broadcasts are so special?
Didn't I tell you?
The announcer interview process will be broadcast live this time.
You didn't.
I didn't know.
How do you know Han Joo Won?
She was my mentor for the practical exam.
You hug your mentor that hard?
I know her personally as well.
(Practical Music Academy)
Woo Cheol. Woo Cheol.
You won't even say hi? I'm hurt.
Hello, sister of Woo Cheol.
Did you have fun today?
Woo Cheol had fun.
Oh, for real?
For real. As a fact. It's true.
You're good with slang just like Mom.
Who taught you?
The TV.
Mom's on TV too.
That's right. Mom's a famous host.
You know, right?
Mom is famous. Mom is pretty.
That's right. You are handsome because you take after her, right?
(Dongrae Blowfish Soup)
Woo Cheol, soda.
Soda.
Again?
You shouldn't drink it all alone.
Share with your sister.
Stop it, Dad.
His sister might not like soda.
An adult is talking to you.
It's fine. I don't drink soda.
See? I was right.
A clarinet?
I used to play one in my heyday.
If you touch someone else's belongings, you're a bad man.
Did I say I will take it from you?
I'm just curious.
Woo Cheol, stop.
- Woo Cheol, stop. - Dad.
What did you do to set him off?
I didn't do anything.
Woo Cheol, I'm right here.
Calm down, it's okay.
Okay, fine, I won't touch it.
It's not like it'll wear away from a touch. This is too much.
I'm home.
What's wrong?
- This is crazy. - I think Dad did something wrong,
but I'm not sure.
- Sorry. I'm so sorry. - Calm down.
Stop him from shouting.
Let's go, Woo Cheol. Let's go home.
Dad, come with me. Calm down.
Let's go.
- Let's go. - Your soup's ready.
They left without eating their food.
Wait.
Your soup's ready. You should eat it before you leave.
What?
Haven't we met?
Pardon?
Judge.
How are you?
Come in, and eat.
Your brother too.
You must really like soda.
So do I.
You have to drink a can even if you miss a meal.
Woo Cheol's like that too.
Is he?
We should start a gathering for soda lovers.
Here.
Let's celebrate with a toast.
Cheers.
Oh, no.
Sorry. I'm so sorry.
I'm sorry.
- Oh, no... - It's fine, I'll do it.
Well...
Soda.
Cheers.
Woo Cheol.
How could you get his clothes wet?
Woo Cheol.
What have you done?
Woo Cheol. Did you enjoy your clarinet lesson?
Clarinet. It's fun.
Music makes me happy.
- Yes, it seems so. - My gosh.
- He's learning. - I know, right?
- Mom. - What?
- I met the judge today. - Who?
We're home. Let's go inside.
Who are you? What are you?
Aren't you Han Joo Won?
I have something to tell you.
- Calm down, Woo Cheol. - What is it?
How far did you follow us?
I have something to tell you.
I won't forgive anyone, even a saint, for following my mom.
I contacted the TV station over a year ago...
and I heard nothing.
Do you have a photo of the person...
you're looking for?
- Is she your daughter? - Yes.
22 years ago,
when my business failed,
my wife collapsed from shock...
and passed away.
I didn't think I could raise a child on my own.
I was afraid I'd end up killing her too,
so I left her at Somang Orphanage in Cheongju.
What was her name?
What physical characteristics does she have?
Did she have a large mole or scar?
Her name was Park Seon Joo.
She'd be 27 now.
She has a long scar in front of her right ear.
On moving day, a framed photo fell off the wall...
and she needed 15 stitches.
Ms. Han.
I want to see her just one more time.
Please help me.
I don't have long to live. I have terminal cancer.
Please. Please help me out, ma'am.
I beg of you.
Please help me, Ms. Han.
- Please get up. - I will never forget you if you do.
Ma'am, help me out, will you?
- Honey. - Hey.
What were you thinking about that you didn't hear me come in?
Did I not?
You're a workaholic.
You need to relax.
Do you like that?
Give me your arm.
I love your smell.
We had some wine. Let's go to bed.
You go ahead.
Will you stay up again?
Mom.
What's up with you?
I don't want to sleep alone.
What's up with you tonight?
That man we met this evening...
reminded me of Dad.
Even when he died when I was so young...
that I don't remember his face.
I want you to help him.
So he can find his daughter and get better.
I hope it happens.
I envy his daughter.
What do you mean?
Her dad is alive.
There's hope that she'll see him again.
If he dies,
she can't see him even if she wants to.
Park Choon Sung, is it?
Here he is.
He was looking for his daughter.
There was so little information...
that I deemed it unsuitable for the show.
Let's put it up next time.
"Contact us if you recognize her."
Isn't that too flimsy?
Use all the connections you have.
Let's give it a shot.
Do you know the man?
No, but I feel sorry for him.
He's terminally ill.
Give us his daughter's details.
How old is she now?
Just a moment.
Han Joo Won speaking.
It's been a long time.
It's Shin Myung Joon.
I'd like you to spare me some time.
I have no time to spare.
It's about Hwa Kyung.
That girl...
is my daughter.
What do you think as your weakness?
My weakness is that I'm clumsy,
lack self-esteem,
often make mistakes...
Aren't those critical for an announcer?
Well, I...
Rule number one, confidence. Rule number two, confidence.
Just say "yes" to any unexpected questions.
"Yes, I do have many weaknesses."
"However..."
However, I feel confident that I can turn my weaknesses...
into my strengths.
I have the competency to host a show...
smoothly and interestingly.
That's it.
That's your charm, Woo Jung.
Gosh, girl.
And your weakness is that you're way too charming?
Here is the scarf you ordered.
You do know that it was hard for us to get, right?
Of course. Please wrap it up.
Sure.
Hey, you said your dad runs a small business...
and your mom is a stay-home mother.
Why are you getting her such an expensive birthday present?
She really wanted that.
I went a bit overboard. Happy now?
Give me a call once you reach your credit.
All I've got is money.
You just have to pay it back.
- No. I'm not paying back. - What?
Fine, whatever.
I would appreciate it...
if you can make this quick.
- I have to be on air soon... - It's great to see...
how you live with such confidence.
I only watch you on TV, but I always send my support...
Did you say...
Hwa Kyung is the daughter of Mr. Shin from Miseong Group?
I'm guessing you didn't know.
Should I have known?
I don't want you to have Hwa Kyung around you anymore.
What if she finds out...
that long ago, you and I were...
Is this why...
you wanted to see me?
What went on...
between you and me long ago?
It's been too long,
so I do not remember anything from that time, Mr. Shin.
Excuse me.
I am not going to say...
that I'm sorry.
I'm a guy who's that selfish.
It's been over 20 years.
What are you so afraid of?
I can't let the smallest thing from my past...
become a stumbling block for me.
Please. I ask of you.
Do not let Hwa Kyung...
hang around with you anymore.
That's not how you ask for a favor.
And I have no reason to do you a favor.
Even if she is your daughter,
the time I spent with her...
cannot be tossed away in a day.
Can't you do this for me?
Like our old days.
Can you do me a favor one last time?
It was a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Shin.
I listed our vacation home in Yangsu-ri under your name.
My goodness.
Thank you, Dad.
It's such a meaningful place for our couple too.
He proposed there.
I hope you like it.
Goodness.
I heard there were only six of these in Korea.
How did you know that I wanted this?
This is why I'm your husband.
Put it on me.
Come on, Father is here.
It's fine.
I'm relieved...
that you two get along well.
Mom, I'm sorry.
I forgot to get something because I was in a rush.
It's fine.
You're the biggest birthday present for me.
Hwa Kyung, is your interview process going well?
Yes, I just have the final round left.
Dad.
Why did you tell Hwa Kyung...
to make sure that she goes into broadcasting?
Don't just focus on the present. You have to look into the future.
You have to paint a larger picture.
You're right, Grandpa.
I want to become an announcer to become well-known,
and if possible, I'd like to go into politics as well.
Politics?
I thought you wanted to take charge of the group...
after your dad.
There's no order in things like these.
Whoever has the talent will make it first.
I'm sorry. This is important.
It's me.
Okay.
We found Mr. Seo.
Let's go.
Hwa Kyung, you're coming too.
Father, she's still too...
She'll do great things in life.
She has to know what's going on.
Let's go.
Chairman Oh, please spare me.
I am sorry.
I brought my precious granddaughter here.
Of course I should go easy on you.
I'm going to leave.
Mr. Shin, you take care of this.
Hwa Kyung, you can watch and learn.
Yes, Grandpa.
Going easy?
I'm not sure if that'll happen...
with Mr. Shin here.
Chairman Oh.
Chairman Oh!
Why did you do that?
What Chairman Oh hates the most...
is when someone destroys the image of the group...
and gets Vice Chairman Oh's name out in the media.
Didn't you know?
If you mess with me,
I will destroy the entire Miseong Group.
Let me go.
If they can't reach me within two hours,
the evidence will be shown to the public.
There's something you should know before that happens.
One second.
This is your son, who's on vacation in Macau.
He created trouble in the casino...
and got arrested by the police.
No! Don't you lay a finger on Jin Ho.
Don't touch him.
Hello?
Jin Ho?
Don't worry, Jin Ho.
I'll take care of everything.
Please don't do this.
Did you forget about how you used to learn from me?
So what?
Do you think I'm the type who would ruin a great work...
because of some old friendship?
That's not me.
Come on, Mr. Shin.
(Wife)
Honey.
Is everything all right?
Honey, what's going on?
The foundation said they reported me to the prosecution...
because I embezzled money.
Honey.
- Don't worry about anything. - Are you all right?
I'll take care of everything, okay?
Mr. Shin.
It's your turn now.
You evil jerk.
You will be darned forever.
You'll be punished for eternity!
Mr. Seo. Where are you taking him?
To a psychiatric ward.
How can you do that?
Dad, were you this cruel?
How could you ruin an entire family? Just how?
Do you think I did it?
What?
- Then... - It was your grandfather.
"Make him think..."
"that living is worse than death."
That's how the Miseong family deals with traitors.
There are no exceptions.
Since we're on the topic,
you should keep your distance from Han Joo Won.
What do you mean?
Don't you get it?
Have you forgotten...
your status or situation?
What does Ms. Han have to do with that?
Give up becoming an announcer too.
You could lose everything...
in a second.
If anyone who knows you shows up...
I could also gain everything.
It's a double-edged blade.
For fear of losing everything,
I can't ignore Grandpa's order.
You know...
that I've never failed an exam yet.
My self-esteem is at stake here.
I'm glad we met.
Let me meet Ms. Han again.
Is she looking for my daughter?
Can I see her again?
How dare you throw it away?
I can't go a day without alcohol.
I can't live unless I drink.
Mister.
You found her?
The director from back then is dead.
However, a girl...
who was up for adoption alongside Seon Joo...
now teaches there.
Her name is Kim Soon Young.
And?
She thought Seon Joo...
went to America as soon as she was adopted.
But they met by chance...
seven years ago in a jewelry store.
I should go to Cheongju and meet Kim Soon Young.
You don't have to. She will come to see us.
At that time,
Seon Joo was a college freshman.
She gave me money.
A lot of money.
She asked me to use it well for the orphaned children.
Did you meet her ever since?
No.
If that's all, do you mind if I go?
I need to catch a bus.
Everything you just told us.
Could you repeat that in the studio?
I don't think so.
I'd rather not have you record...
what I'm about to tell you now.
To tell the truth,
Seon Joo asked me to do something strange.
She asked me to pretend not to know her...
even if we happened to meet again.
She doesn't want anyone to know she was adopted?
After what she asked me to do,
I can't go on TV to talk about her.
I have to go now.
But...
(Nagging Princess)
Yes, Woo Jung.
How is it going?
Did you find his daughter?
I think we're stuck.
Why?
You said you found a friend from the orphanage.
I did meet Soon Young...
but she doesn't know.
I think she's hiding something.
Where is she now?
Hello?
Ms. Kim Soon Young?
Who are you?
I'm Han Woo Jung.
You met Han Joo Won.
She's my mom.
And?
Park Seon Joo's father is very sick.
He could die soon.
It depends on you.
Mr. Park could die without seeing his daughter,
or he might not.
Help us out.
Please.
Hello.
- You teach her. - We'll see about that.
That's Seon Joo.
- I'm positive. - The finalists are...
(Find out next week!)
(Secret and Lies)
Do you know him?
He said his daughter's name is Park Seon Joo.
Kim Soon Young.
I met his daughter's friend.
I asked you.
Did you tell him that I'm Park Seon Joo?
Is she my daughter?
It's not true. It can't be.
About Hwa Kyung.
She wouldn't lie to me about something, would she?
Park Seon Joo, that's your real name.
Will you help me?
Your birth father showed up?
You're afraid too, aren't you?
I'm Shin Hwa Kyung forever.
