(Episode 2)
See?
What woman? You're jumping to conclusions.
Then what are those shoes?
A gift for you.
I was checking to see if the jewels fell off.
This is so frustrating.
I wish I could open up my heart and show it to you.
Don't you believe me?
If I hear people say the heir of Aura Group...
has a messy personal life,
you'd better be ready to bury me.
Are you done? Then please go.
Don't you fret.
You're the only woman in my life.
Whatever.
Esther.
Grab on. Trust me.
Come on.
What are you doing out there?
Be right there!
I'm really sorry.
Get back safely.
Hang on.
Out of my way.
Who are you?
Get up, San Ha!
Get up right now!
Mom!
Hey. What about the deal with the Chinese company?
That? It didn't work out.
It fell through.
"Fell through"?
To be honest, what can I actually do?
Nam Joon always did everything for me.
When we studied abroad together, he wrote all my reports for me.
When we joined the company, he set everything up,
and I just took the credit.
What are you talking about?
You should've thought of a way to make it happen somehow!
How could you just give up?
It's almost time for dinner with your grandfather.
Get moving.
He hates it when people are late.
Fine.
You... You're going to take that?
You said they were for me.
What's wrong?
Sorry. My mom changed the door code.
You're out of your mind.
Stop that.
Talk it out.
He needs surgery urgently,
and miraculously, we're a match.
But I hesitated a full 10 seconds when I thought of you two.
Because I know that although you love Soo Ho,
you wouldn't let your daughter give him her kidney.
You think your body is your own, don't you?
It isn't.
I have a right to half of it.
The other half is your dad's.
But you'll take out what?
Take it back!
Mom, Dad.
Soo Ho is my man.
I could give him much more,
even my life.
I'm sorry.
I'm really sorry.
How could you say that to your parents?
What about him?
What does the punk you give your life to have to say about this?
He doesn't know any of this.
He'd never agree to surgery...
if he knew I was the donor.
You stupid... Hey you!
- You... - Honey.
Mom.
They would've removed his kidney already.
It's too late to take it back.
I'm really sorry for doing this without telling you,
but can't you cheer us on...
for a successful surgery?
Dad.
I really have to go. There's no time to waste.
Honey.
San Ha said...
the two of them are a miracle.
Let's believe in that miracle.
I can't let her go.
I can't let my baby go.
You'd better come back safely!
I won't forgive him otherwise!
What do we do?
Hello?
Is anyone home?
Who...
Your name is Lee Soo Ho?
Your name is as nice as you are handsome.
It sounds like a name for a guardian angel.
When is your birthday?
It's my birthday today.
That's why we were having seaweed soup.
Happy birthday. But...
I don't know my real birthday.
I was abandoned as a newborn.
I'm sorry.
Then let's make your birthday today, just like me.
In light of that, let's share the seaweed soup.
Happy birthday, Soo Ho.
Why aren't you eating?
There I go again.
I'm a lefty, so...
San Ha.
You... You got in.
Thank you! This is all thanks to you!
Because you taught me math so well!
And from now on,
we're equals.
I'm all grown up too, now.
Soo Ho.
The original plan was...
to supply shampoo, lotion, et cetera...
to the Tokyo location of the hotel chain,
but the final deal was...
to supply to all 190 locations in 26 countries.
Here's the contract.
What will you do about the increased volume?
190 location would require an enormous supply...
of products.
I've already signed a subcontractor...
to supply the additional volume just in case.
This new face mask...
was your idea as well, correct?
Yes, sir. It was.
Good job.
You get a gold medal.
Next. Do Gyung.
Yes?
The thing is...
What did you say to me before you left for China?
"I'll jump over the Great Wall."
Isn't that what you said?
As you know, there's a big supplier in China.
I tried my best...
and even called the CEO of J Hotel in Shanghai who went to my school,
but that punk took off after I wined and dined him...
- and was unreachable... - Are you kidding me?
- Father. - Father.
Calm down and eat first.
Stop punishing the kids who came back after working hard.
Let's eat.
It's your favorite, maesaengi guk.
It's hot, so be careful.
Sit down.
Remove Do Gyung's food!
Sorry?
I don't need...
someone who doesn't earn his keep,
even if he is my own flesh and blood.
I don't want to look at you, so get out!
Grandpa.
Ms. Hong! Didn't you hear me?
Do Gyung.
Don't even think about eating with me...
until you get the supply deal in China.
Let's eat.
Father.
The soup is refreshing and delicious.
Nam Joon, do you like it?
Yes. It's delicious.
That volcano.
Volcano?
Mr. Kim.
Did you see him eat that piping hot soup...
without complaining?
He's a volcano.
There's no visible steam,
but he's boiling with ambition on the inside.
Father values results and skills...
more than blood.
Why are you blaming Mr. Kim? He's innocent.
If only you were chairman by now,
Do Gyung wouldn't have been humiliated like that today.
We never would've let...
someone like Mr. Kim into our home, either.
Is it my fault again?
Half of Aura Group is mine.
I will not give it to anyone other than Do Gyung.
What are you doing out there?
Be right there!
I'm really sorry.
Get back safely.
Hang on.
Esther.
Esther!
I know you're inside.
Let me in!
I'm sorry about earlier.
But you know I had no other choice.
We couldn't get caught...
Do you call that an excuse?
I almost died.
Sorry.
But I really need you right now.
I'm having a really tough time.
You're the one who let go first. Did you forget?
Yes, I was wrong.
So let's talk face to face.
Bring me my shoes.
Shoes?
My green shoes that you bought for me.
Sorry.
My mom took them.
So what?
Bring them right now.
Either tell her about us and get them back or steal them.
I want those shoes.
Don't even think about seeing me until you bring them.
Honey. The doctor.
The transplant was successful.
Thankfully, they're both doing well.
Thank goodness. Thank you so much.
Thank you.
Honey.
- I need to sit. - Okay.
Hey.
Yes. Okay.
Honey. I need to get to the factory.
There's a problem with a machine.
Go on.
I'll stay here.
Okay. I'll call when I can.
Go on.
Soo Ho.
I'll go after I see my daughter wake up,
so please look after him until then.
San Ha.
Are you okay, San Ha?
(Hangang University Hospital)
San Ha.
Are you awake?
You can't move yet.
You were just moved here from the recovery room.
The doctor says...
you're recovering at light speed.
Where's San Ha?
You're making me jealous.
I'm the one who waited all night for you to wake up,
but you only want San Ha.
Esther, where's San Ha?
Don't worry. Her surgery went well too,
and she'll wake up...
What do you mean, surgery?
What surgery?
You can't go anywhere right now.
Then what about the donor?
What else?
You should become healthier and happier,
and help even more patients.
That's what I'd want if I were the donor.
I said I'd check on him.
What if you pop your stitches?
I'm going to check for myself...
and make sure Soo Ho is okay.
San Ha.
Soo Ho.
Why did you do it?
You didn't even tell me.
If I were sick,
you would've done this for me too.
What will I do with you?
What...
Here are the proposed questions for the interview.
The car is in the shop, so we'll move the last two paintings...
by cab.
I'm sure you'll take care of it.
You could've just told me over the phone.
Must you annoy me and call me in...
Hey, I like her the best.
She looks modest and comes from a great family.
I think she's the perfect match for you.
Match for what?
To marry you.
Your wife...
must be someone who will give you wings.
Ms. Jang, were you still here?
The only way to take down Nam Joon...
is to get married.
Stop badmouthing Nam Joon in front of me.
He's like a brother to me.
Let's see if you still say that...
after he takes everything that belongs to you.
This girl's mom is coming...
to the class later.
I'm going to get the ball rolling with this.
You're being too mean.
You've been screening my calls for over a week,
and you won't let me in if I come over.
Where are the shoes?
I'll buy you nicer ones.
One with diamonds.
I've missed you.
That hurts!
I told you...
not to even contact me until you get the shoes.
Esther. Why are you doing this?
Life has been...
If you don't bring them by the end of the day,
I'll tell her everything.
About how long and how deeply we were in love.
That we even almost had a baby.
Esther.
Hey, Es...
I won't lose anything anymore,
be it an item or a person.
I won't lose what's mine.
Darn it!
Darn it.
I'm bleeding.
What? You want to know more...
about your blind date?
Okay. I'll bring it...
right now down to the lobby.
What? You need to get back to the office?
Okay.
Remember.
You're the only heir of Aura Group,
and if it isn't you, I'd have no reason to live.
Got it?
Where were you...
instead of in your office?
Mom... I mean...
At my mother's gallery.
My gosh. How old are you?
You're still hiding behind your mommy's skirt.
You blew an important deal,
but you still have no clue what's what.
Fine.
If you can't survive without Mommy,
just quit right now.
Just trail your mommy wherever she goes.
What are you doing, Mr. Kim?
Clear out Do Gyung's office!
- Mr. Chairman. - Grandpa.
The Chinese deal isn't dead.
I'm renegotiating with them,
- so give me some time... - Why you...
Mr. Kim.
As of today, you are Do Gyung's superior,
so don't let him step foot inside the building.
Got that?
Mr. Chairman...
(Gyung)
Let's see if you still say that...
after he takes everything that belongs to you.
Remember.
You're the only heir of Aura Group,
and if it isn't you, I'd have no reason to live.
Did you finally succeed with the face mask?
The money will start pouring in now.
Well, not to that extent yet.
You closed down...
the pharmacy to start making cosmetics,
and even went into debt for this, but it was worth it.
I'm proud of you, Oh Chang Soo.
My husband is the best!
My gosh.
Welcome home.
You must be tired.
Congratulations on a successful surgery. Here.
My sister and brother-in-law's favorite, hyacinth.
What brother-in-law?
They never even had a wedding.
What? If they registered their marriage, aren't they married?
I don't know...
what to say to you both.
And...
thank you.
For not passing me by.
Soo Ho!
- For embracing me. - Auntie!
It's okay.
Soo Ho.
For sending me San Ha, my love.
Mother, Father,
thank you very much.
Get up.
It's cold. Come inside.
Here's to our family's health.
- Cheers! - Cheers!
I made the food slightly bland so they don't upset your stomach.
You yelled at them so much, but look at you taking care of them.
Thank you.
Okay, let's eat.
San Ha, did you know?
That face mask that you and Dad were developing...
is finally finished.
For real? Is that true, Dad?
That's right. We just have to tweak it a little more.
And the Thanaka series is almost finished too.
You've worked hard, San Ha.
Thanks for your contribution, too.
That's right. The Thanaka face mask...
was your idea to begin with. You said you learned about it...
when you went to Myanmar on a medical volunteer project,
and that it was all-natural.
Thank you. It's all thanks to you.
Not at all.
This was your study, Dad.
Where are all your books?
Why are Soo Ho's things here?
Well,
surgery is important too, but so is post-surgery care.
You should stay here for the time being.
Don't sleep at the hospital.
- Father. - Look around.
Tell me if you need anything.
My gosh.
It must have been hard, moving all the stuff.
Soo Ho.
Let me hold you for a minute.
I don't know if it's okay for me to be this happy.
It's making me nervous.
You have me.
We're together.
I love you,
San Ha.
Me too.
I love you too.
Let's break up.
What are you talking about?
The limited edition.
You and I were a limited edition as well.
Are you doing this because I made you get the shoes back?
I don't regret loving you.
Go on.
At first, you amused me.
You worked so hard to survive.
You walked instead of taking the bus to save a few bucks.
You ate the same food from the day before.
But then...
you were as pretty as a flower.
To be honest, I'm not confident.
I can't take on my mom.
My mom...
Actually, she has a sad life.
She works hard just like you...
to buy my grandfather's favor,
to keep my dad from straying,
and to make a man out of a son like me.
So,
I want to own Aura.
I'm going on a blind date.
I'm going to marry the woman my mom wants me to.
You knew when we started this...
that it would never work out. So...
Fine. Get out.
- Esther. - Get out!
I'm not sorry at all,
so resent me all you want.
Okay.
You coward.
You scum of the earth.
You jerk.
No, Do Gyung.
I won't lose you.
I will never be dumped...
ever again.
My gosh.
It's been 30 years already.
You're alive, right?
I'm sure you are. My grandson.
Goodness.
Stop being such a sap.
Gang Chul is...
the only child we have,
and Do Gyung is our only grandchild.
What? Ms. Jang hasn't come in yet?
Is Ms. Jang out of her mind?
She knows we have an important interview today,
but she doesn't show up to work?
Hello? Jang Esther speaking.
Are you out of your mind?
Don't you know I have an interview with an art magazine at 11am?
Where are you...
Why are you standing tall like that?
Did you just laugh?
Did you just laugh at me?
Don't talk down to me.
I'm not an employee anymore.
I'm not your personal assistant.
What?
(Resignation)
What is this? Resignation?
Have you lost your mind?
Come in!
Are you going back to work already?
You know how it is in the ER.
You're going to the factory to check on the products, right?
Take care of yourself.
You too.
Where's your blow dryer?
Why?
Look down.
That's so warm. How nice.
Your colds usually start at the back of your throat.
If you dry this part, you won't catch a cold too easily.
(Left-Handed Wife)
I won't live like you, Dad.
I'll have Grandpa accept me, and I'll claim Aura Group.
And I'll be devoted to my wife and kid!
Why don't you look for your biological parents?
You should find out whether he has the blood of a murderer or thief...
before having kids with him!
Stop this!
Forget him.
You can find someone much better.
I'm going to marry Do Gyung, no matter what.
I won't lose this opportunity.
