Sowon's mother isn't dead.
Sowon's late father warned me not to so I kept it quiet.
Then this women here is...
I tried to find her before the wedding.
But PI agency says she might not be in Korea.
Her name is Minja Shin and grew up in my neighborhood and of same age.
We won't find her before the wedding so tell Sowon about her someday.
You two can look for her if Sowon wishes to.
Mother.
This money is for the cost of finding her so accept it.
And live happily. I trust you.
It'll get busy for lunch so I should get going.
Reporter Kim.
My.
My. Director Shin.
-How long has it been? -Please sit.
Go back to work.
We didn't have lunch. At least I'll see you out.
Gosh. Don't worry I won't get lost. Go on.
I'll now forget about that matter. So you take care of it for me.
Okay. Don't worry.
Manager Jang.
What photo is that?
It's been a while since we met so time went by fast. Let's meet often.
We can't talk PR much without media.
That's what I wanted to ask you for.
Director Ihyun turned cold shoulder to me for the past 4 years.
Cold shoulder?
Director Ihyun changed the whole thing in the PR.
All the reporters that worked with you got disconnected since.
There's a saying, "New wine needs a new bag."
You know what a fighter my daughter is.
Oh. How's your son by the way?
He's working hard as a low rank employee.
Low rank employee? Isn't Ms. Chairwoman too much?
You're coming back so your son can now prep for the successor seat.
Well, that's...
<Confirmed him receiving rebates from Sangryu Farm. Verify with him.>
- Boss. -Yes.
Where is Manager Jang?
I don't think he's out so call his cell phone.
Oh, Mom.
Come by Han River's terrace area in 10 minutes.
Terrace area? Why?
Did that jerk...?
Rebate? I'll just...
-Are you alright? Are you hurt? -I'm okay.
-If you're hurt, let's go to hospital. -No, I don't need to.
-You know we both are at fault, right? -Pardon?
I'm at fault for not looking out but you shouldn't have jumped in either.
Nothing broke in me so don't worry about it.
Give me your cell phone.
I'll give you my number so call me of any problem.
I'm really okay. Don't worry.
I don't want to get accused wrongly later. Cell phone.
Here. Good?
You got something to tell me?
I forgot you'll be on marriage vacation from tomorrow.
I should know what I need to do over at your office.
I already prepared a project file for you to start with.
Really?
You must start with recipe contest for next Monday.
You can decide on the rest in time without no problem.
There's someone called Sowon Han in the lobby.
Sowon Han?
-Sowon Han? -Yes.
-Let's go. Director is waiting. -Okay.
Mom.
Buy me a sports car otherwise how can I make it here in 10 minutes?
You told me you're doing well and to trust you. But rebate?
Do you even know what you've done?
This is different from taking out money from Grandma's or my wallet.
Did that jerk Hyunwoo Jang tell you?
Hyunwoo Jang?
Your superior that Ihyun mentioned? So he knows too?
Did that jerk Hyunwoo Jang tell you?
Otherwise how'd you know about this?
Does it matter? I might not never be able to get near CE Group thanks to you.
$500,000. Give me $500,000. Then I'll take care of it.
$500,000? Did Hyunwoo say he'll keep quiet with $500,000?
He is neither that gutsy nor flexible.
If I return all the rebate money and clean up the logs, what can he do?
You still don't get it, huh? You think things are that easy?
You let him get a handle on you on top.
You know Hyunwoo Jang in Strategy & Planning, right?
Find out about everything about him.
His family, education, work record, financial status, everything.
This.
-What is this? -Fish roe my mom made.
She said to give it to you for the lunch you bought us.
You didn't have to.
You probably eat great food but please accept this as our thanks.
My Grandma loves fish roe very much.
I should give you good news for this precious gift.
You'll become a team manager's wife after your honeymoon.
I'm telling you this 15 days ahead of the announcement but you're not happy?
No, it's so sudden.
Thank you.
You're getting promoted? So nice, so nice.
My last work is this office is Manager Jang's special promotion.
Manager Jang, let's work well together.
Is this a dream or real? It's so nice.
Oh, I shouldn't be idle. I should let Mom know.
It's not for sure. Don't tell family yet.
But we heard directly it from Director.
It's a promotion for sure so you should be happy too.
I told you not to! Don't make a fuss, just focus on wedding prep.
Hyunwoo.
Then I don't have to worry about Hyunwoo now, right?
-What? -Will you take care of him from now on?
Want to ruin me along with you?
I don't know about this so you take care of your own mess.
How can I win Ihyun?
She smelled something so she's busy making Hyunwoo her ally.
She's not going after him just to get rid of me.
She's using me as an excuse to stop you from coming to work.
You knew it well and still made this mess?
You might as well just help me now.
If Hyunwoo sides with Ihyun, your comeback becomes all useless.
What is this?
It's a congratulatory pot for Director Haeran.
What should I do?
Put it aside hidden and bring it out when this room's new owner comes.
Okay.
Gosh. Are these all for me?
-Yes. -Leave it here.
What the new room owner wants is more important than the old owner.
Do it as she says.
Aren't you working from tomorrow?
-What's the occasion without a notice? -I need to go over the takeover.
And to chat as daughter and mother over some coffee.
Stop that nonsense and get to the point.
What do you need to say that you couldn't say it at home?
About Sukhyun.
I stopped by after meeting Reporter Kim to ask you something.
Yesterday, you talked as if Sukhyun is into some big trouble so what is it?
Tell me if you know any. Don't make Grandma find out and faint.
Find it out for yourself.
You said a few days ago. That Hyunwoo knows what Sukhyun did wrong.
Should I go ask Hyunwoo now?
Maybe it's the only way.
Don't bother that working man.
That's why I came to see you, so I don't bother him.
I want to get rid of Sukhyun right now but I still haven't found the right card.
He doesn't even work and ruins his office atmosphere.
So I warned him firmly to make him come to his sense.
I see. I lost sleep past a few days thinking he messed up big time.
You should just live like now, taking care of troublemaker Sukhyun.
You're going to have many sleepless nights from now on.
I believe you, my daughter, will help me sleep comfortably.
Me help you, Ms. Shin?
You're not really serious, are you?
Ihyun.
I beg you not to act so grossly in Grandma's absence.
Act? I'm sincere. I want to help you and Grandma in any way.
-Really? Then help me right now. -What? Tell me anything.
I was going to ask Chauffeur Kim but you can take this back home.
The only help I want from Ms. Shin is this sort of thing.
I can only do this for now but someday I could be a big help to you.
Don't skip meals.
Too bad such a day will never come.
You shouldn't say never so easily.
I thought she had a mighty big card.
Looks like Hyunwoo hasn't said a word.
Let's meet at the same place in an hour.
Beauty shop lady will buy with some neighbors so join her.
Croaker?
It's a little expensive but it's an excellent health food.
Okay?
Mom.
-Did you give the fish roe? -Yes.
Director accepted it gladly, saying Ms. Chairwoman loves it.
Really?
-Take care. -Come tomorrow.
Hey.
Yes.
Did you hurt your leg? What's wrong with the new bride's walk?
I hurt my ankle a little. I saw fresh cucumbers on my way.
Make cold cucumber soup for your dinner.
Okay, I will. Should've been careful.
Let's go.
Should've been careful. What if end up marching into your wedding limping?
That won't happen. I'll be okay tomorrow morning.
I might pass away before the dinner.
Their new house is around here. Will we be climbing here every day?
-No way. -I'm afraid it's, yes way.
Where the heck is this restaurant?
What's wrong? What?
-Hi, Ms. In-law. -So refreshing, refreshing.
Gosh. Where did you buy this? So, so pretty.
I tried, since today's my audition. Did you come for Sowon's new house?
Yes, well... sort of... Where's your restaurant by the way?
Go into that alley a bit. I'll be late to audition, bye.
Go into that alley a bit.
-What's the role you're auditioning for? -Nun #2.
Nun #2?
Must be a naked nun role.
In-law miss is an actress wannabe like when I was young?
Let's find the restaurant as the wannabe told us before we die of heat.
Is this it?
Huh? But why is the restaurant named Dawon, not Sowon Restaurant?
It's obvious. Why'd she name it after her stepdaughter?
Welcome.
Is the owner away?
You look unfamiliar. Did you come for Jungsook?
Sowon must be away too.
Then? Jungsook and Sowon will come after grocery shopping.
Really? I'm so hot so bring me iced water.
Excuse me but the restroom...?
You have to go inside the house for restroom. Go this way.
It's obviously so small. So...
So cozy.
This place is doing very well.
By the way I should tell you that you're getting a great daughter-in-law.
Sowon is pretty, nice, and can cook so well...
So what? She's only a Cinderella daughter-in-law.
Cinderella daughter-in-law?
Since the topic is out... Do you know this place's owner well?
Didn't she abuse Sowon a lot?
I don't need to ask.
It's obvious when she named the restaurant in second daughter's name.
You shouldn't say that without regard of other people.
What other people? Abused Sowon will become my daughter-in-law.
Jungsook tried her best. You don't even know anything.
You must've abused Sowon together.
What?
I can tell. You must've abused her together in team.
How dare to judge? You yourself better not abuse Sowon.
Who fed poor son that was studying in a tiny study room and starving?
-Poor son? Who are you talking about? - Who? Your son, Hyunwoo.
What's with the stepsister and this restaurant worker?
These two are trying all might to break off the marriage, huh?
Looking at you, I think it's better to fold this marriage now.
What? I'm short of breath as it is. This wench raises my blood pressure.
I, Chooja Kim, used to be well known all over Busan.
How dare you mess with me?
Ha. Who wasn't infamous wench in old days?
What?
Hey!
This wench!
-Mom, Mom! -Mother!
Wait! Mom, Mom!
Mom, what's wrong? What's wrong?
That wench...
-Ignorant... - What a ridiculous wench!
-Gosh, how dare you challenge me? -Cool it, Mom. What's wrong?
So ignorant, so ignorant. She must've been a gangster in old days.
She's not such a bad lady.
What? So I was wrong?
No, not that...
You need two hands to clap.
Stop ruining your style and let's go see Hyunwoo's honeymoon house.
Yes, Mother. We'll have hangover soup ready when we come back.
Hangover soup? Do I look drunk?
Hyunwoo overdrank last night.
We'll have croakers party tomorrow when we get them.
Meanwhile, let's eat hangover soup at the restaurant today.
Restaurant? You expect me eat the food that wench made?
She doesn't cook in the kitchen. Mom and I make food.
Forget it. Let's go to hotel. I can't see their new home feeling like this.
Why don't we eat hangover soup?
Didn't you hear? That wench is still in this restaurant.
I'm afraid of eating the food she might've added poison into.
No, not the poison. She might spit into it though.
Oh. Oh. Dirty.
Mom, Mom. Gee, really.
Mother.
This.
What is this?
Tell that Hyunwoo or whatever.
That if he waits with that $100,000, I'll prepare him a position.
$100,000? Aren't you unnecessarily freaking out by that nobody loach?
Loach? You know what happens when a loach willfully messes up the mud?
You don't know him. He won't be moved by money or promotion.
-There's nobody who won't be. -There is. This won't work on that jerk.
Then make it work.
Hyunwoo.
Yes.
Will you be late?
I won't be too late. Why?
I made yummy hangover soup.
Will you be eating out?
No, I'll eat over there.
Good.
I'm sorry about earlier.
I know. Let's talk later.
You're off right on time today.
I'll stop by the warehouse.
Warehouse? You go there often these days.
Yes. I'll go ahead.
Manager Jang.
Let's talk
What is this?
Let's just say it's scout money.
Scout money?
You and I are in a same boat now.
So you want to tie me up with money.
It's $100,000.
Think of it as cash gift for your wedding expense.
If you wait a little, you can hope for a promotion too.
Promotion...
You know what'd happen if I accept this incredible scout offer?
You'll advance flawlessly next to me.
No, I'll become a human trash like you.
This is not the solution I was waiting for.
So stop disappointing me. Suggest me a satisfactory solution before too late.
Did you enjoy your pre-work practice?
Yes, thanks to you.
-Where's Mother? -She's not back yet from hospital.
Regardless of your effort, you might just get stuck home thanks to your son.
Watch what you say.
I have limits to my patience. I mean that I cannot endure endlessly.
What you going to do if you don't?
You don't know since you got no child. No mom endures her kid being abused.
What'd I do especially when you abuse my kid to torture me?
I have no choice but to stop it no matter what.
That, that... Ihyun or Chairwoman should've seen this.
Oh gee.
Who abuses who? So what if I said he's a fool when he is?
Sukhyun has no future.
I feel sorry for your life that you must embrace your time-bomb son.
-Same thing, huh? -It doesn't seem to improve.
Shall I just become a jobless?
What are you saying?
I hoped a superior would fix this, but it seems hopeless as it is.
I even think about sacrificing myself to expose and clean this up.
Don't do that. You haven't done anything wrong.
Just trust Ms. Chairwoman.
I really hope Ms. Chairwoman finds out and sends a problem solver.
You've done your best.
Anyway, do you know a good hangover soup place?
It's been a while since I drank so my stomach still hurts.
-There's an awesome one. -Really? Where's that?
Sukhyun's herbal tonic. Give it to him warm morning and evening.
Yes, ma'am.
-Hello? -Ms. Chairwoman. This is Jinhee Kang.
What's the occasion? For you to call me first?
I'm back.
Okay. I feel I'll hear a good news.
If it's still effective, I'd like to accept your offer.
Do you mean it?
I think I should be with CE Group. If you let me, I'll work hard.
Thanks. So when will you be in Korea?
-I'm already in Seoul. -Seoul?
Then let's meet tomorrow right away. Meet me at noon at my hotel.
Yes, I'll see you tomorrow.
What happened?
You didn't get rejected, did you?
I told you. He can't be bought with money.
You can tell when Ihyun must've pushed him hard and he hasn't said a word.
He's not even an Ivy League grad, has a 6 figure loan but refuses $100,000?
Maybe he plans to blackmail and use you all his life?
Was my muscle in shock? My ankle still hurts.
I skipped restaurant all day today so I should help at night at least.
I say this since Sowon's not here. Honestly, you've done your best to Sowon.
That wench's done such evil to you.
I might've dumped Sowon at an orphanage, if I were you.
So ungrateful to pay good with evil. She'd lived a vagabond life for years.
She came back all messed up and you took her in but she stole her friend's lover.
Sowon might hear. Told you not to mention that brat in this house.
If she had stolen other's man, then she should've stuck with him.
When Sowon's dad's family went broke,
that wench ran away. Leaving just 100 days old baby.
There exist circumstances for people to abandon their children.
I should meet at least once. I have something to say then.
Grandma. Please promote Manager Jang.
We must think about ways to catch Hyunwoo with persuading words.
If persuasion doesn't work, then no choice but to step on him.
Are you crying, Sowon?
Did you run away, abandoning my daughter? How could a human do that?
What do you mean, run away?
