(Episode 24)
What tactic is this?
Is this an upfront tactic?
You've got the wrong idea!
You can't take down my defenses with such an outdated weapon.
Retreat at once!
Yes, sir!
I wasn't trying to seduce you.
Don't get the wrong idea.
The mood got kind of weird.
Do you want to take a walk and get some fresh air?
Asking me out on a date is prohibited.
- Sorry? - From this moment on,
you shall consider me a married man.
Thus, physical contact, asking me out on dates,
getting drunk, saying you love me, revealing clothing...
and all other pheromone-emitting behaviors are prohibited.
Upon violation, you shall be banished from this home.
Gosh.
You're the one who cried and begged me to come back.
When did I cry? I did no such thing.
Why? Did you see your first love...
again or something?
Yes.
- I did. - I hear most people...
get disappointed because so much time has passed.
I guess it wasn't bad.
Was she still as pretty to you?
I don't like her because she's pretty.
Still, you're not very disappointed, right?
I was disappointed. Very much so.
But that changes nothing.
I am not a lousy human being...
who succumbs to the tricks of time.
That's right. You're human too.
You must have been disappointed by how I look.
E Do, seriously.
How can he survive in this world if he's so naive and old-fashioned?
Why is he suffering like that over some old woman...
even a stray dog wouldn't want?
Once this perfume runs out,
I need to leave.
Both Min Ye Rin...
and Min Jae Hee.
I want to be with you.
I'm not a playboy.
A love triangle?
I would never do that.
- Are you sure about that? - Are you sure about that?
Leave. Go away!
How could love change because her appearance changed?
Seo E Do's 29-year-old innocent and pure love...
wouldn't be trashy like that.
Gosh, this looks pretty.
Why are you here?
I need about five outfits for the dinner show.
But people must've found out.
Global companies such as Jacobs and Galiano...
offered sponsorship.
However,
I turned them all down.
I want you to take care of this.
I'm giving you your first chance to be a good son.
What did you do to demand me to be a good son? Are you crazy?
Why isn't there anything I did for you?
Your handsome face, perfect physique,
smart brains, and artistic talent.
Where do you think you got those?
All of those genes came from my flesh and my blood.
And on top of that,
I thought you would shrivel up and die alone.
But recently, you seem to be living the romance of the century.
Those romantic genes also came from my body.
You're right.
The filthy lust you gave me...
is corrupting my innocence.
What?
You?
Really?
My heart is supposed to flutter only for one person.
But it flutters for another person...
just the same.
That can't be right.
My heart fluttered for only one man.
Who was that one man?
Yoon Min Suk's father?
My father... Well...
Did your heart never flutter...
when you were with your first husband?
Yes. It never fluttered. So what?
Then why did you marry him?
Why did you marry a man you didn't even love...
and make a child you couldn't take responsibility of?
Is that something to brag about?
Do you want me to give you a medal or something?
That heartless kid.
It's not like I betrayed my country.
When will he stop treating me like a traitor?
He's here. Min Suk.
- Min Suk. - Min Suk.
- Seriously, those brats. - Please, Min Suk.
Please don't date Min Ye Rin.
That woman is a monster.
She transforms into the Hulk.
You're in the biggest danger of your life right now.
I saw that happen.
Hey, what kind of nonsense is that?
Just leave.
Hey, let's just go.
What did you see?
I saw it clearly.
I was alone in the club's bathroom with Min Ye Rin. But...
No. No!
Min Ye Rin suddenly transformed into the Hulk Auntie...
and tried to kill me.
Hey, quickly get on the car.
She's a notorious crazed fan.
We'll see you later. Get on the car.
See you later.
- See you later. Let's go. - You need to watch out.
- Min Suk. - Min Suk, don't leave us.
- You can't go to her, Min Suk. - Min Suk.
- Min Suk. - Min Suk.
Hey, are you believing that crazy kid's nonsense?
Are you sick or something?
Seriously.
How does that make any sense?
How am I supposed to get Susung Electronics' video?
My gosh.
I didn't call you. What are you doing here?
- Well, I... - Quiet. Quickly follow me.
- What? - That way.
CEO Seo is looking for Min Jae Hee?
Yes.
But how could that lady suddenly appear here and there?
I just can't understand.
I've been a private investigator for 13 years,
but I've never seen anyone like this before.
I'll pay you the rest of your payment,
so don't find this woman.
How could I do that?
The CEO keeps threatening me day and night.
Just ignore him.
Add Seo E Do's number on your spam list,
and keep ignoring him whatever he does.
- Why are you so easily scared? - "Scared"?
Why would CEO Seo investigate Min Jae Hee's background?
I didn't know about it either,
but we knew each other.
You knew each other?
How?
Min Jae Hee...
Well, I...
am Seo E Do's first love.
Come on.
That's impossible.
Really?
I saved a boy from drowning when I was young.
That boy was Mr. Seo.
I forgot about that until now.
This is amazing.
His mysterious first love...
was you?
How could fate be like this?
This is amazing.
Okay.
So how do you feel...
after finding out about that?
I'm not sure.
I'm taken aback...
and touched.
What will you do now?
Will you confess everything to CEO Seo?
I'm not sure about what I should do.
Just tell him.
- What? - He's rich and has connections.
CEO Seo might help you...
if he learns about the secrets of that perfume.
Anyway,
if you drag this on,
it will be only a matter of time for him to find out.
I'm 100 percent sure.
(New mail)
("Hello, it's Min Jae Hee.")
"Hello, it's Min Jae Hee"?
I'm hallucinating again.
Am I about to pass out again?
I'm not passing out.
Hello, it's Min Jae Hee.
I came to contact you like this...
because I had some recent troubles.
Why are you investigating me behind my back...
like some lynx?
Stop being shady,
and say it to my face if you have something to say.
What? "A lynx"?
"Shady"?
Is she crazy?
If I'm a lynx,
are you a hedgehog?
Why are you raising unnecessary spikes?
Is a great man's interest in you...
making you nervous?
I don't know how great you are,
but seeing you get provoked by insignificant words...
What? "Get provoked"?
You must be very petty.
I am not petty.
I am detail-oriented, however.
I see.
When shall we meet? Let's get it over with.
I'll send a car to pick you up. Where should I send it to?
Jae Hee, it's nice to see you again.
Let's go inside.
What is he planning to do?
Hello, everyone.
Here you go. Have some coffee.
- May I please see... - Yes?
the 17th-floor security video from four days ago?
Give me a minute.
- Here is it. - Okay.
I'm a manager in the marketing department.
This is related to sensitive company matters,
so I'd like to look at it alone.
I opened the first E-do Collection Store in 2012,
and there are 65 stores nationwide.
We also launched in London, Paris,
Tokyo, Shanghai, and Hong Kong.
You will get to see my creations that were highly praised...
during a world-renowned Fashion Week.
I edited it down to 60 minutes...
just for you, Jae Hee.
I rented out this place for the day, so take your time.
As you can see from our first date,
I am definitely not petty.
E Do.
It's all good and all,
but why did you call me here to brag and boast about yourself?
Look here. I'm not boasting.
This is my profound art...
You haven't...
dated much, have you?
Let's continue for now.
The climax comes just before the ending.
Height, 187cm. Weight, 78kg.
Body fat percentage, 9.7 percent.
Blood pressure, 105 over 78.
Fasting blood sugar level, 74. GGT level, 21.
According to my health report,
I am normal in every category. I received an A.
He's only saying the good stuff.
He left out his allergies and phobias.
Do you remember?
The first day we met.
The summer 29 years ago...
when you saved my life.
I had completely forgotten and remembered recently.
Almost dying isn't such a great memory after all.
That's right.
What we experienced that day...
wasn't all good for me either.
After that day,
I started to get sick little by little.
So,
I have 52 phobias...
and 35 different allergies.
I've become a sickly man.
I may look fine,
but the wounds you can't see hurt more.
However, I recently began receiving treatment.
The person who gave me the courage...
to face the wounds I had been evading for so long...
is exactly like you, Jae Hee.
Thanks to her, I am able to listen to the signals...
my body and heart sends me.
I'm not one to believe in miracles,
but I'm positive...
there's something...
between us.
I've got you, Jae Hee.
When a person comes,
it is a very significant thing.
It's because...
she brings her past,
her present,
and...
her future with her.
It is because a person's entire life comes.
Her heart,
which is easily broken...
and may have broke, comes.
Jae Hee.
Your past,
your present,
and your future.
Please bring them all to me.
Thanks to you taking my hand...
29 years ago,
I was able to safely...
become an adult.
Are you...
looking at me?
Not Min Ye Rin,
but Min Jae Hee?
This time,
I'll save you.
Actually,
there's something...
I need to tell you too.
If everything you said and did today...
came sincerely from your heart,
please...
hug me just once.
Here?
Right now?
You don't want to?
No, no. That's not it.
Then let's hug.
Then you'll come to learn a lot.
This person isn't a stranger.
She's the woman...
I've waited for my entire life...
only from afar.
Wait.
