(It's My Life)
(Episode 49)
What's this?
I'm sure this is it.
Does that mean she's living in this house?
Could she be working for the family living here?
Let's find out.
Who is it?
Hello. Ms. Yang Sun Ja...
lives here, right?
Yes, she does. Who is this?
I see. I am Yang Sun Ja's...
husband. That's right.
Ms. Yang is not home at the moment.
Then when will my wife Sun Ja be back?
I don't know. Please come back when Ms. Yang is home.
Hello? Hello?
She's so strict.
In fact,
people living in a fancy house like this won't let anybody in.
But what should I do?
Shall I wait here until she comes back?
If he is Ms. Yang's husband,
Ms. Yang said she lost touch with him when Nam Jin was a child.
That's odd.
The phone is turned off. Please leave a message...
after the beep.
What are you thinking?
How dare you make a move on my daughter?
I made it clear to you...
that I want you and your mother to stay out of my sight.
Why are you looking so serious?
Hi. You came in early.
What's wrong?
Why do you look so haggard as if you couldn't sleep at all?
- No, I don't. - Yes, you do.
Is it because what my dad said last night?
If so, don't worry about it.
I'll take care of it.
How can I not worry?
It's all because of me.
What do you mean it's all because of you?
To be exact, it's because of us.
I don't want you and your father to drift apart...
because of me.
What do you mean by that?
I'm just saying we shouldn't rush anything.
That's not what I wanted to hear.
"Don't worry."
"I can wait until he approves of our relationship."
"We just have to maintain a happy relationship until then."
"I will never let you go until the day I die."
These are what I wanted to hear from you.
I guess how I said it made you upset.
I will wait.
I will never let you go.
Actually, I am pretty patient.
I will never leave you unless you leave me first.
Then why did you say we shouldn't rush anything?
I was saying that I won't go anywhere,
so you don't have to argue with your father and get upset.
I'm sure he'll see...
our sincerity over time.
Was that what you meant? I was mistaken.
Goodness, you. You get worked up so easily...
and then smile again quickly. The hot-tempered Seung Joo.
What? The hot-tempered Seung Joo?
Good morning.
What's this atmosphere?
Exactly. It's freezing outside,
but it's hot here.
Mr. Koo, do you want discipline training as well?
Discipline training?
Mr. Ahn, were you having discipline training?
Yes. And it was really intense.
Oh, right. Is the plan to convince Ms. Han Mi Ra going well?
It won't be easy, but we will try our best to the end.
You may not know, but I am pretty patient.
We're going to see Ms. Han after the meeting this morning.
If we don't succeed today, we'll try again tomorrow.
- If we don't succeed tomorrow... - We'll try the day after tomorrow.
My goodness. The two of you hit it off so well.
Yes, Mr. Heo.
Pardon? Right now?
50,000 dollars?
Yes. It seems to me...
that Mr. Han's brother-in-law Ko Seon Gyu...
talked his sister into it.
Right. I have the same thought.
What do you want to do?
If that money could comfort...
Mr. Han's wife at least a little,
I should give her the money.
I knew you would say that.
However, it seems that Mr. Han doesn't know about this,
which worries me.
You're worried he might think you're trying to resolve...
the matter of life with money, right?
That's right.
It's not that you offered it first.
She asked for the money. So even if there will be a misunderstanding,
you just have to explain to him why you gave her money.
You're right.
I'm too ashamed to face you.
Come to think of it,
my mom seemed to have something to tell me yesterday.
I was too caught up in my own problems to understand how she felt.
Your mother was very worried...
she might burden you.
I'm her son. She's not burdening me.
Why was Nam Jin with that girl?
That's pointless anyway.
She looks just like her father.
She won't go against me as long as I have this.
(Han Mi Ra)
Ms. Choi, the meeting on the second contest will begin shortly.
Okay.
The theme for the second contest is "Mature Beauty of a Woman".
In order to add uniqueness of Han Mi Ra,
who will appear publicly in seven years,
we need to combine elegance and mysteriousness.
I like Mr. Jang and Ms. Jung's draft designs.
However, both of you need to improve your designs.
Exactly what should we improve?
Mr. Jang, your clothes are elegant, but a little ordinary.
It looks like common middle-aged women's clothes.
Okay.
I'll add Ms. Han Mi Ra's own style to it.
Okay.
As for Ms. Jung's design, the fabric is the problem.
Linen wrinkles easily, so the model becomes cautious.
Then how about we use fabric that doesn't wrinkle easily?
I think a polyester mixed fabric would do as well.
I like Ms. Seo's design too.
Her design shows Han Mi Ra's style better than the others.
It's luxurious and elegant.
Han Mi Ra will be on stage for the 1st time in 7 years.
Rather than a common and popular design,
don't we need something new and mesmerizing?
That's true, but as you saw in the first contest,
it'll be pointless if the clothes don't sell well.
Many customers will return it or request repair service.
Do we really need to take the risk?
Then how about we make samples...
and have them evaluated?
Good. Let's do that.
Since we have a tight schedule, start making samples right away.
Oh, right. Ms. Choi, has Ms. Han agreed to stand on our show?
She'll end up joining our show, so don't worry about it.
Okay. Let's wrap up the meeting.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Who is it?
It's Ahn Nam Jin.
Mi Ra, I'm here too.
I don't want to see you, so please leave.
Will you really be like this?
We should resolve the misunderstanding.
Will you never see me again?
Uncle Beluga.
- Soo Ji. - Hi, Soo Ji.
Soo Ji, Auntie Dolphin is here too.
Auntie Dolphin is funny.
Come on in.
This is the same as this.
The beluga and this.
You can watch this.
- Ms. Han. - I have nothing to tell you.
- You got the wrong idea. - "The wrong idea"?
All of the photos Ms. Choi sent are dated yesterday.
You can clearly see Soo Ji's face in them.
May I see the photos?
Had I known Ms. Choi sent you,
I wouldn't even have met you in the first place.
What do you mean she sent me?
That's what Ms. Choi told me.
She said she sent you.
Mi Ra, we're competing against her team.
I couldn't tell you the details as it's about the company,
but either Ms. Choi's son or Nam Jin...
will inherit Hyunkang...
through three rounds of the contest.
So why would we do as she says?
Hang on.
Isn't this the cafe we met you?
I think so.
If I took Soo Ji just to get these photos taken like you're saying,
how come there are no photos from the aquarium?
The photos would've looked clearer as it was during the day.
But...
you were the only person who knew...
I was in front of that cafe.
Where did you and Ms. Choi meet...
by any chance?
We met at that cafe.
Then it's obvious.
I bet she hired someone to take photos of Soo Ji.
I guess that is possible.
What did Ms. Choi say?
She said she'd tell the media...
about me and Soo Ji's father having a child out of wedlock...
if I didn't appear in her show.
Seriously?
She is really out of line.
I get that the contest is important,
but how could she threaten you using your weakness?
What do I do, Seung Joo? What should I do now?
I think...
you should just appear in Mr. Choi's show.
What are you talking about now?
If you want to protect...
your daughter and her father,
you should keep them safe.
In my opinion, you agreeing to appear in Mr. Choi's show...
is the only solution.
But you said your team would lose if I helped the other team.
I have no choice.
Have you lost your mind?
If we lose the second round, it'll be game over.
Then Hyunkang will fall right into the hands of Mr. Choi and Ms. Choi.
How could you say that?
Then what else can we do?
We can't make this kid suffer in this fight.
That is true, but...
I'll be frank with you.
I came to see you to persuade you to appear in our show,
and that's why I took Soo Ji to the aquarium.
I thought winning Soo Ji over...
might influence you to decide to help us out.
Then why are you telling me to help Ms. Choi Soo Hee now?
It's because of Soo Ji.
She taught me a very important lesson.
She trusted and went with me without any doubts.
Her innocent heart...
put me to shame because I was trying to win her over...
only to persuade you to be our model.
Regardless of the reason, using someone for your own goals...
can never be justified.
I'm truly sorry.
I sincerely apologize again that I tried to use your daughter.
We'll be fine, so please go ahead and be in Mr. Choi's show.
For Soo Ji's sake.
Oh, right. Our team finalized our designs at a meeting today.
What are they?
Matching outfits for mothers and daughters.
For mothers and daughters?
Yes.
It was Seung Joo's idea.
They best represent your love for your child.
We'll have to find another model for the outfit,
but we'll send the set to you later on as a gift.
Thank you.
Soo Ji and I will definitely wear them.
Okay. Take care, then.
We'll be off, Mi Ra.
Well, I think...
Soo Ji wants to communicate with the world.
get back out there and face the world confidently with Soo Ji.
Many people are looking forward to seeing you...
with the confidence that you've gained over the years.
I'm telling you my wish as one of your fans.
Goodbye.
You drive me crazy.
You totally ruined it.
Why did you tell her to be in their show?
Goodness, there she goes again. The dolphin screech.
Gosh, my ears hurt.
Are you giving up on the contest?
Don't you know that we'll be doomed if we lose the second round?
But we beat them in sales in the first round.
That makes it 50 to 50, so we're even.
Even if we lose the 2nd round, we can beat them in the 3rd.
Gosh, what is this?
What is this unrealistic optimism?
My grandpa told me...
that people come before all else.
If Soo Ji and Ms. Han can be happy, that's good enough.
Gosh, you kill me.
Let's do a super impressive job in the third round.
And who knows? We may beat them in sales again in the second round.
We've done our best, so we'll leave the rest up to the universe.
Gosh, I'm crazy.
What do I even like about this guy?
It's too late to regret now...
because I'll never let you go.
Gosh, it's so cold.
Goodness.
I can't wait outside any longer.
I guess I won't see her today.
I give up.
Why are you getting in so late? You didn't even answer my calls.
I wandered around because I had a lot on my mind.
You called me?
Your husband came by earlier in the day.
My husband? I don't have a husband...
No way.
How did he even get this address?
Gosh, what do I do?
It's freezing outside.
It's so cold.
Did you go somewhere?
Hey, turn on the heater.
I'm almost frozen.
It's so cold.
I've run out of oil.
If you ran out, you should buy some.
Get it delivered now.
What will you do if our faces get paralyzed?
If I order it now, it won't be delivered until tomorrow morning.
What? Tomorrow morning?
Hey, go to the gas station and pick some up now, okay?
The gas station.
Why? Are you going to go?
Cheol Woong, make a list of gas stations in Oepo.
- Right now? - Yes. Right now.
That's right. The gas station.
I want to use a foreign image for the embroidery.
How about Northern European embroidery?
What about traditional Chinese embroidery?
Traditional Chinese embroidery?
Ms. Han was very popular in China before she disappeared.
I think we can describe her unique and mysterious charms...
using traditional Chinese embroidery.
That's a good idea.
Good job.
I'll give you 100 out of 100 points.
Thank you.
Other people would never know...
the joy of working with the person I love.
Hello? Is this...
the gas station run by Dae Sik's father?
Yes. I'm Dae Sik's father. Who is this?
Oh, my. Mr. Kang, it's me.
It's Bang Cheol Sang, Nam Jin's dad.
Nam Jin's dad?
Oh, it's you. What makes you call me?
Well, I'm calling you to ask you...
about something.
Is something going on with Nam Jin's mom,
by any chance?
Did you just get out of prison or something?
Why haven't you heard anything?
Gosh. Please don't say that. Why would I go to prison?
I stayed in a foreign country...
for a few years for my business.
Anyway, what happened to her?
It turns out that Nam Jin...
is the grandson of Hyunkang's owner.
What?
He's the grandson of Hyunkang's owner?
Gosh. They say a person's life can change overnight.
I heard he's living a wealthy life in a fancy house.
Then Nam Jin could...
inherit Hyunkang Group soon, right?
Yes, Mr. Kang. When you come to Seoul,
give me a call. Yes.
Finally, I, Bang Cheol Sang,
will enjoy a prosperous life.
Oh, yes!
What is it? Did you just snag an opportunity of some sort?
Yes, you brat. I just snagged...
an amazing opportunity.
Why do you come home late every day?
I needed someone to talk to.
I had a lot of work to do.
You must have missed me a lot.
Of course, I missed you.
I agreed to work with Hyunkang until the contest is over, so wait.
After I finish that work, let's go on our honeymoon...
that we canceled for many reasons.
- Honeymoon? - Yes.
Will we go on a cruise?
I really wanted to go on a cruise.
All right! Let's go on a cruise.
Oh, my. Man Seok, you're the best.
- I'll go wash up and come back. - Okay.
Let's have a romantic time like a newlywed couple...
- since Seon Gyu isn't home. - Okay.
Okay.
Hello?
Hello. It's Ahn Nam Jin.
I heard you're sick.
I just have a headache.
You don't have to worry about me.
You should have told me.
Why were you worried alone?
You knew about it?
- Oh, gosh. - I prepared 50,000 dollars.
I'll meet Mr. Han's wife today and give her the money.
Do you want to go with me?
I have a bad headache.
Can you go by yourself?
Okay, Mom.
Don't worry about anything, and get some rest.
Thank you, Nam Jin.
Don't say that. It's not like we're strangers.
I'm off.
My goodness.
Maybe I should leave this house.
So that jerk won't get to bother you.
Gosh. I'm so unfortunate.
It's 50,000 dollars.
You could've wired it to my account. Why did you ask me to see you?
I thought it'd be appropriate to give you in person.
Money doesn't mean anything since I lost my baby.
I think of Savior all day and night.
My mom and I...
will carry a burden in our hearts for the rest of our lives.
Goodbye.
- Did you receive it? - Yes.
Here. This is your cut.
You have such a great brother, right?
Should we have asked for 100,000 dollars?
Right. He's the grandson of Hyunkang's owner.
He would've given me 100,000 dollars. It's a shame.
No, no.
It's better to take a small amount and forget about it.
What if he tells Man Seok?
If Man Seok finds out, both of us will die.
Exactly.
50,000 dollars is enough.
It's too little to tell Man Seok,
but it's enough to fill your empty heart.
Right.
- Are you leaving already? - Yes.
I saw a mink fur coat that I want.
See you at home.
Bye.
I'll do it. Please stop it and lie down.
It's okay.
I need to wipe the table at least to feel at ease.
Who is that?
He's the man who came yesterday. What should I do?
Sun Ja, how long has it been?
Have you been well?
Gosh. Put it away. How dare you come here?
I want nothing to do with you, so go back.
What do you mean, go back?
My wife and son are here.
Where else should I go?
Your wife and son?
Stop spewing nonsense and leave right now.
Or else, I'll call the police.
Fine. If you insist,
I have no choice but to talk to Nam Jin.
I heard that Nam Jin is the grandson...
of Hyunkang's owner. Right?
Stay away from Nam Jin.
If you do anything to Nam Jin,
I'll kill you and then myself!
(It's My Life)
I will stand on your team's show as you want, Ms. Choi.
Under one condition.
What is this, Yeon Sil?
Seon Gyu bought it for me.
Seon Gyu bought you a coat worth over 10,000 dollars?
Tell me the truth right now!
Oh, my. Isn't that Jin Ah?
I can't believe them.
They said they were going to a meeting, but they're on a date?
