Dad!
(Episode 37)
What do you think you're doing, Chairman Choi?
What do you mean?
Ms. Jang, what were you talking about earlier?
I was talking about testing your leg muscles, sir.
Some people also call it a longevity test.
You were talking about testing his leg muscles?
Will you stop talking nonsense?
I'm serious.
I heard people who are good at that live a long life.
So I asked him to try it out.
Why are you testing if my dad's going to live a long life or not?
You don't know how I feel because you're married to a younger guy.
- What? - Try being with someone...
who's 20 years older than you.
"He said he was fine yesterday."
"I wonder if he woke up feeling okay today."
That's all I ever worry about.
Dad, can you get rid of that content facial expression off your face?
You were even worse back when you were dating.
"Dating"?
Does that mean you're dating my dad?
What's the big deal about dating?
It's when you miss someone when they're not around,
don't want to say goodbye when you have to part,
and want to bring them...
to all the nice restaurants you've ever been to.
We feel everything that you feel.
Do you think there's a limit to dating or what?
You said you broke up with him.
You're the one who said he's no longer your sweetheart.
So why do you keep talking as if he is?
Once a sweetheart, always a sweetheart!
Dad!
This is the office of LX Group's chairman.
Will you please get to your senses?
You're the one who came in here and started yelling at me.
Dad, make her leave...
so that we can talk.
- She's my guest. - Excuse me, ma'am.
I have something private to talk about with my dad.
So would you please get lost?
Jin Bok, do you want me to get lost?
If you want me to get lost, I'll get lost.
How dare you tell my guest to get lost?
You're the one who should get lost.
What? Dad.
What did you just say to me?
Jin Bok, I don't think she got the message.
You should also say, "Would you please get lost?"
Say exactly what she said to me.
- Dad! - Gosh, what?
If you make me leave your office,
things are going to get really serious.
You better think properly.
My gosh!
I'll tell him that you're here first.
What? Move.
It'll only take 30 seconds. You can go after I tell him...
I said, move.
1, 2, 3.
What's the matter?
I'm only letting this slide because I'm busy.
What kind of tea would you like?
It's not necessary. You can carry on with your work.
Okay.
Why are you always taking your anger out on Secretary Eun?
You're doing it again.
If you add onto this, I might really go crazy.
What did I do?
Dad can't think straight...
because he's hooked on a third-class actress.
And my brother can't straight...
because he's hooked on a good-for-nothing brat.
What's the matter with this family?
I'm thirsty.
Why isn't she bringing us any drinks?
- I might as well just... - My gosh.
I told her not to bring us anything. Wait here.
My gosh, I'm so angry.
- Secretary Eun. - Yes, sir.
Can you get us a drink? Anything cold will do.
Okay, sir.
- What are we going to do about Dad? - What about him?
He might remarry Jang Mi Ri.
- That's good. - What?
- You're okay with that? - Of course.
I'm totally okay with it as long as it makes Dad happy.
Have you ever seen a guy become happy because of a gold digger?
A gold digger? She seemed like a decent person to me.
If she's so decent, why would she seduce a guy for his money?
But she might actually love him.
Do you think it makes sense for her to love an old man...
who's 20 years older than her?
Why wouldn't it make sense?
People in Hollywood even get married when they're 40 to 60 years apart.
My gosh, your outfit is unbelievable.
Didn't I tell you that you need to become a high-class secretary...
if you want to work for a high-class boss?
Seo Hyung.
Don't get in the way. I'm trying to educate your subordinate.
She's always on a high horse...
and looking down on me because you keep taking her side.
You practically represent Seo Jun.
- But what is this? - Seo Hyung.
I can't believe you're wearing something so tacky.
Did you pick it up from a trash can and reform it?
Listen.
If Mi Ri becomes 60,
then Dad will be over 80.
Do you seriously think that will last?
- Seo Hyung. - You should threaten him...
and say you'll go to the States if he remarries her.
Seo Hyung.
Do you really think you can call her your stepmother?
Seo Hyung!
Why are you yelling at me?
If you talk that way to Ms. Eun one more time,
- I won't let it slide. - What are you going to do?
You look as if you might even hit me.
Seo Jun, why are you being so scary?
I really like you, Seo Hyung.
I admit that you filled up Mom's empty space.
Seo Jun.
Why are you being so serious? It's really not like you.
But I really hate it when you behave like this.
What did I do?
Let's not cross the line and say things...
that are unacceptable to other people.
I want you to apologize on your way out.
If not, I don't ever want you coming back here again.
If Seo Jun asks you whether I apologized or not,
you better tell him that I did. Do you understand?
Do you understand or not?
When are you actually going to apologize?
You crazy...
Your outfit is unbelievable.
I can't believe you're wearing something so tacky.
Did you pick it up from a trash can and reform it?
(Advisor, Hong Baek Hee)
Hey, Executive Director Choi.
I was thinking about dropping by your office in the afternoon.
What? You have a favor to ask me?
I didn't really know whom I could ask.
I'm a professional when it comes to stuff like this.
Don't worry.
I'll make sure Seo Hyung won't ever be able to say that to her again.
You're really similar to how your dad used to be.
Really?
Yes, he used to be just like you.
Like So Yu, I wasn't doing very well financially.
And once he found out about that,
he did everything he could to help me out.
Tell me the truth.
Do you not like me, or do you not like marriage?
Of course, it's marriage that I don't like.
Why? You said you had a nice marriage life with your late wife.
You always become like this every time I talk about marriage.
I'm really not going to let you drop the subject today.
Tell me why you can't marry me.
- Next time. - You always say that.
You made me hold hands and kiss you by tricking me like that.
Today, I'm not going to leave until you tell me.
But I need to get to an appointment.
Hey, get ready to head out, and bring me my coat.
Jin Bok.
Why does he always run away every time I talk about marriage?
My goodness.
- Secretary Eun. - Yes, Ms. Hong.
Get your coat and meet me in the lobby.
- Pardon? - I already told Seo Jun,
so you don't need to report to him.
Don't worry about work. You should go.
Okay.
- Are you on your way to eat lunch? - Yes.
I hope you enjoy your lunch.
I was just about to call you.
- Long time no see. - Yes.
I'll leave you guys to talk.
Okay.
- Does your stomach feel okay? - Yes.
I came running as soon as I finished my meeting.
There's a nice hangover soup restaurant nearby.
Let's go there. You need to relieve your hangover.
I have an appointment.
Really? With whom?
If it's with Chae Young, can't I just join you?
It's not Chae Young. It's someone you don't know.
Okay, then.
Don't just eat anything. Eat something nice and warm.
Okay, I'll see you.
Quietly follow me.
Like this.
Okay? You should give it a try.
Straighten your back and loosen your legs.
Seo Kyung.
You got here quickly.
My golf clubs were in the car.
I came as soon as we hung up.
- Come here. - Okay.
Let's try it one more time.
Is she your stepdaughter? The one who was in the States?
- Yes. - Straighten your shoulders.
You guys could be seen as sisters.
- How old is she? - She's 12 years old in Korean age.
Didn't you have something to say to me?
I don't feel so comfortable talking about it here.
I need to take her home after she's done with her lesson.
It's nice and quiet. You can tell me.
I just really want to know how Seo Jun really feels about me.
Didn't you guys go on a date?
Yes, we did. But...
It's probably because he feels awkward.
You know he never does anything he doesn't want to.
So the fact that he stepped up and asked you out on a date...
means he's willing to give it a shot.
Ye Ji has improved a lot.
- You know Myung Ji Yoon, right? - Of course.
I'm a fan.
- Do you teach here? - Yes.
That's great.
I wasn't taught very well back when I learned in Florida,
so I have a bad stance. But the thing is, I have a shoot.
By any chance, can you teach me if you have time?
I should make time even if I don't have any.
Thank you.
Aren't you going to carry my golf bag?
Carry it yourself.
But it's way too heavy.
What do you think?
Do you like the menu I picked out for you?
It's nice since we're able to eat it according to our palate.
Can I have another one to go, please?
Sure.
That looks nice as well.
Oh, that?
That's garlic jokbal and garlic bossam.
Then I'd also like some garlic jokbal as well.
And I'd like a serving of garlic bossam to go.
Okay, I'll place your orders.
Hello.
You come here often these days.
She said she won't eat anything else other than this.
I want half a serving of jokbal and half a serving of bossam.
Okay.
Ma'am.
I didn't know you had a guest.
Hey, we met last time at an event.
Don't you remember me?
Hello.
But what brings you here?
Are you here to ask her about your fortune?
Grandma, I'm hungry.
"Grandma"?
You said you don't have any friends or relatives.
Why is she calling you "Grandma"?
My gosh, she's just calling me that.
Every restaurant owner is called "Grandma" or "Auntie".
Oh, I get it now.
You guys can sit over there and eat.
Gosh, you should've properly introduced me to her.
I need to become close with Jin Bok's daughter.
Why are you here?
How are you so good?
- What do you mean? - You said I'll be disgraced.
And I actually ended up humiliating myself.
You humiliated yourself?
What happened?
The thing is...
I'll tell you about that next time.
Can you first check Jin Bok's fortune and see if he'll end up...
marrying twice?
Why? Are you going to marry him?
If he's destined to marry twice,
I'm going to do everything I can to become his wife.
Show me some classy outfits for her. She'll be wearing them to work.
What's your job?
You don't need to do this.
Seo Jun told me that he's upset.
Is he upset because I don't dress well?
You need to try your best to keep your end of the deal.
What does buying clothes have anything to do with our deal?
Did you not check the money I wired you?
I did.
Then you'd better do as I say.
I don't need a new outfit to stop them from getting engaged.
Seo Jun has high standards.
You need to try your best if you don't want to lose him to Ji Yoon.
Hurry. We don't have time.
Okay, ma'am.
Wear this on your way back.
I'll wear it next time.
You have a very bad habit.
Stop talking back to what I say.
- If you keep doing this... - Doing what?
This is only the beginning.
I can even barge into your house...
if I feel it's necessary,
so just shut your mouth and do your job.
You're not supposed to know...
that Seo Jun bought you clothes, okay?
- Why didn't you eat with me? - I wanted to eat with someone else.
Isn't that So Yu?
So Yu.
You look really fancy today.
Back when you used to be a stylist,
you wore really tacky clothes that made you seem poor.
But you look different today. You look great.
What happened?
What are you wearing? And what are all those shopping bags?
- Well, they're... - My goodness.
Are they really from the actual brand?
Yes.
But this brand is really expensive. Did you buy all of them?
Let's talk later.
I need to go to my office. I've been gone for way too long.
What's wrong?
Are you jealous? Should I buy you clothes?
I'm Manager Wang.
- Stop it. - Stop what?
Do you not want any clothes?
(Executive Director, Choi Seo Jun)
What are you doing?
I'm letting you check my outfit.
What do you mean?
I can't believe...
I was able to choose an outfit without looking at the price tag.
Why are you telling me that?
It seems like you were worried about what I wore to work,
so I just wanted to reassure you.
Did my sister not apologize?
She did.
I guess an apology isn't enough to make you feel better.
But I hope you ease up. I'll apologize on behalf of her.
Why would you apologize?
Thanks to you, I got five nice outfits.
I feel like I perked myself up with gold.
Did I upset you again?
What are you talking about? I'm really happy right now.
So Yu, I'd rather have you get angry at me.
Why would I get angry at you? You bought me nice clothes.
I just didn't want you to get scolded by my sister.
Yes, I know.
I was too thoughtless. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
Please don't apologize.
I don't deserve your apology.
(Chae Young)
Are you sure everything's okay?
Where did you get that coat?
You're making me feel really nervous.
Chae Young, to be honest...
We need to be the only ones who know about this deal.
If you tell this to anyone,
you'll have to pay a huge cancelation fee.
And you know I'm not joking, right?
(Chae Young, to be honest...)
(Cheongung Medical)
You should call Yoon Tae.
Why?
You should call him and ask if Mi Ri's planning on...
marrying the chairman.
Why are you so interested in Mi Ri?
What?
They say, "Old habits die hard."
Are your old playboy habits starting to come back?
You're more than enough for me, honey.
Then why do you want me to ask if Mi Ri's marrying the chairman?
Because our store's future depends on her marriage.
What do you mean?
Mi Ri's our business partner.
But imagine what will happen if she becomes the chairman's wife.
What's going to happen?
So many people will start coming to our store...
so they could earn brownie points from the chairman's wife.
Yes, you're right.
So you're saying if Mi Ri and my father-in-law get married,
Seo Hyung will try hard to stop them...
but will end up getting neglected, right?
Yes, at least that's what I predict.
Then what about Hong Baek Hee?
She'll side with Mi Ri.
Then what about me? Do I need to side with Mi Ri and Baek Hee?
Your first goal is to make Choi Seo Hyung...
become the outsider of the family.
Hey, Soo Kyung.
What do I think? About what?
Do you think the chairman and Mi Ri will end up getting married?
Hey, you're the one who should ask Mi Ri and find out.
I think it'll be beneficial for us...
if the two of them get married. Am I right?
You really are my sister.
Love at an old age can get out of control.
If he starts enjoying his marriage life with Mi Ri,
he'll completely disregard the company.
And the company has no one else to depend on other than you.
You'll be able to take the chairman's spot right away.
That's why you need to do your best to make sure they get married.
Okay.
You know how good I am at inciting people.
Instead, promise us that you'll give us this store...
once you become the chairman.
Don't worry.
Why would I want that store when I'm the chairman of LX Group?
You better not go back on your word, okay?
Okay, bye.
Come this way.
You should try it first.
You need to experience it firsthand.
There's no need for an explanation. Lie down comfortably. There.
Goodness.
Isn't it comfortable?
Have you gone crazy?
Why would I spend time with Mi Ri?
I never asked you to spend time with her.
I'm talking about your friends.
The ones who are good at acting cute in front of older women.
That goes for women who are slightly older than them.
Mi Ri's way too old.
But still, she has good skin.
So what?
Everyone in this country knows how old she is.
So are you refusing to help?
Okay, fine.
I'll just have to cancel your photoshoot.
A photoshoot?
- Me? - Yes.
You've been on a very long hiatus,
so I booked a photoshoot for you.
I want to do a photoshoot, honey.
I'll gather my friends right now.
They just need to please her a little, right?
Make sure she loses interest in my dad...
by showing her the vibrant energy of young men.
Okay.
Do you finally get it now?
Make her go head over heels for young men...
by showing her the benefits of being with them.
Okay, I'll do that.
No, not you. I'm talking about your friends.
- Okay, my friends. - Not you.
I'm home.
Chae Young, take a look at these clothes.
They're So Dam's clothes.
But I think you can make them into So Yu's work clothes.
There's no need for that, Ms. Oh.
What do you mean?
So Yu has a lot of clothes.
What do you mean So Yu has a lot of clothes?
I saw her today at work,
and she had already bought a lot of clothes for herself.
So Yu bought clothes? Where did she get them?
She's someone who used to think it was a waste to buy cup noodles.
I wonder where she got the money to buy such expensive clothes.
My goodness, do you think...
What is it?
Sell her organs?
There's no other reason...
to explain why she would've spent that much money on clothes.
She probably thought she might as well buy nice clothes for herself...
before she sacrifices herself like Shim Cheong...
Chae Young, don't say stuff like that.
(2 years ago)
I want to be the surrogate.
Please let me do it.
To be honest,
So Yu can do anything for her mom.
No, we need to stop her no matter what.
Chae Young, please look after my mom.
(Ji Yoon)
The receiver cannot be reached. You will be directed to voicemail.
Please leave a message...
(Seo Jun)
I might die while waiting for your call. Call me.
- So Dam. - Se Hyun.
- What brings you here at this hour? - I'm here to see So Yu.
Is there something wrong?
No, I was nearby, so I wanted to go home with her.
What do you say we go and surprise her...
instead of calling her beforehand?
Hello, this is the Global Business Division of LX Group...
This is Myung Ji Yoon.
- Hello. - Where's Seo Jun?
He's currently in his office.
Please tell him...
that I'll wait in front of my house until he comes and picks me up.
This deal will get canceled the moment Seo Jun...
gets engaged with Ji Yoon.
If you stop him from getting engaged,
I'll let your mom receive as much treatment as she needs.
We need to stop him from marrying Ji Yoon.
What's the matter? Do you have something to say?
Ms. Myung told me that she's going to wait...
in front of her house until you come and pick her up.
Sir.
If you didn't already agree to meet her,
can you buy me a drink?
So Yu.
(Gangnam Scandal)
I won't stay still if you mess with my sister.
I practically saved you from drowning to death,
and that's all you have to say to me?
Do I need to explain to you why I asked...
Executive Director Choi to buy me a drink?
- Do I need to feel sorry? - So Yu.
I think you'll have to try harder, Secretary Eun.
I'm just wondering if things are going well.
Why did you ask me to buy you a drink?
Because I had something I wanted to ask you.
We couldn't do it yesterday, so let's do it today.
