They really are the same.
(Episode 74)
My gosh.
Mr. Chairman.
Hey. What happened?
Did you bring Nam Joon's aunt?
You come with me.
Leave it.
Nam Joon, sit here.
Why are you back alone? Where's Nam Joon's aunt?
I'm sorry.
By the time I got to the airport,
she had left the country.
She left the country?
Yes.
When I checked earlier,
Tiffany was on the 8PM flight to LA.
But?
But she suddenly changed her flight.
She got on an earlier flight.
She even changed her destination to New York...
and asked for the next available flight out.
Do you know why?
She said she had to leave the country without saying why,
and rushed.
It was as if she knew I was coming to get her.
This is your necklace, right?
I brought it from your apartment.
Yes, it is.
Who gave you...
this necklace?
Where did you get it?
I don't know.
They said I had it on me when I was a baby.
You had it...
on you when you were a baby?
Yes. Why do you ask?
Esther.
Is this the necklace...
you said you saw before?
You said it looked identical to Ae Ra's.
Yes, Grandmother.
Nam Joon.
This is your mom's necklace.
Our eldest daughter-in-law, Yun Ah.
Mr. Kim. He wants to see you.
I hear you have a paternal aunt.
Yes, I do.
Then how are you our eldest grandson?
I was adopted when I was a baby,
and she is my adoptive father's...
younger sister.
After my adoptive father passed away,
I was sent to an orphanage.
She's your adoptive father's sister?
Tiffany?
Mr. Lee.
Did you try to badmouth me because you didn't like me?
Sir,
I consider her like my real aunt.
My adoptive father...
was...
my real parent.
My gosh.
He should be soothing him and talking sweetly to him.
He must be upsetting our poor Nam Joon again.
Sir.
When did I beg you to accept me as your grandson?
Why are you doing this to me...
and treating me like a criminal?
Think about everything you did to us!
I told you already.
Whether or not I'm your eldest grandson,
I don't want anything to do with this family...
that hates me and is dissatisfied with me.
Don't ever...
call me here for this again.
Nam Joon!
Don't go. Nam Joon.
I'm sorry.
I don't belong here.
Why don't you belong here?
This is your house. Your family.
Why are you leaving your house?
There is...
no one who welcomes me here.
Why not? I'm here.
Can't you...
reconsider for my sake?
I've waited so desperately for you...
ever since we lost you as a baby.
No. I cannot let you go.
I never even dreamed something like this would happen.
I can't let you go. Definitely not.
Over my dead body.
- I'm sorry. - No! No!
Nam Joon!
- Hey, hey, hey. What's wrong? - Mr. Chairman.
Please get Nam Joon back.
Please bring him here.
Dr. Lee. Please bring Nam Joon back.
I need to bring him somewhere.
There's someone who must meet him.
No, no, no.
- Sweetie. Get it together. - No.
- Sweetie. - No.
No.
Hey, hey. What do you think you're doing?
If I can't live here with Nam Joon,
I'll leave and live with him.
What was that?
How many more years could I possibly live?
I longed for my grandson all my life.
I'm going to live with him until the day I die.
Gosh. Put that away.
This is all your fault.
This is because you kicked out my poor son.
If you hadn't kicked him out, this never would've happened.
Yun Ah wouldn't have died an unnatural death,
and our precious eldest grandson...
wouldn't have lived as an orphan...
and alone like some outcast.
Fine, fine, fine.
That's enough.
Do you still eavesdrop on others' conversations?
Get away from there.
Did you know...
that Grandfather kicked out his eldest son and his wife...
and that the wife died an unnatural death?
But Mother,
how did the son die?
Grandmother talked only about Yun Ah,
her daughter-in-law,
and never about her son.
Shut your mouth and go upstairs.
This is about No Ah's family.
As her mom, I have a duty to explain it to him later.
No matter what anyone says,
I'm going to bring our eldest grandson to his dad.
My son, Hae Chul,
lived his entire life like he was in exile.
I'm going to show him how his son grew up.
I'm going to show him how he lived.
Here.
Can you have coffee at night?
It's decaf, so it's okay.
Why did the chairman want to see you?
They say Nam Joon is their eldest grandson.
What?
Didn't they say he died?
There was a mistake.
The police called again,
and they said Nam Joon is their grandson.
That's strange.
Nam Joon's father...
passed away when he was in grade school.
That's right.
I even know when he passed away.
He said he was his adoptive father,
and Tiffany was his sister.
What?
When...
he told me before,
he made it sound like...
he knew about his birth mother, too.
I don't remember the details,
but he seemed to know her.
How's the mood there?
Chairman Park...
is having a hard time accepting it.
But I think it's strange too.
As soon as the vice chairman disappears,
the supposedly dead grandson is identified,
and he turns out to be Nam Joon.
That's right.
And Nam Joon...
seems to know where the vice chairman is...
but is keeping quiet about it.
I'm sorry, Hae Chul.
I'm sorry.
Yun Ah. Wake up.
Yun Ah.
What?
What do you mean,
prepare to accept Nam Joon into our family?
It's not like I don't know your blood boils...
whenever you see him,
but we need to save your mother first.
Father, you're so mean.
Don't you think about me at all?
Think about what Nam Joon did to me.
He used Do Kyung's death to blackmail me...
and used that to become CEO.
But you want to accept him into our family?
You're so mean.
I'll take him to get...
a DNA test done secretly.
Just so you know.
Father!
I told you.
Father will always give in if Mother cries.
She's already fallen for you.
She'll give you all of her assets in no time.
We should get rid of...
the vice chairman and Soo Ho.
Sure. The longer he stays missing, the more they'll get suspicious.
We must get rid of the chairman's loyal dogs...
to facilitate the takeover.
Get started.
That's what I'm saying.
What's that?
They're from the auditing team.
That's right.
They're the grim reapers.
Once they're on you, you're out.
Where are they going?
The vice chairman's office is that way.
My gosh. My baby.
Come here, come here. My gosh.
Yes, hi.
Can Grandpa...
hold you, Gun?
Let's see.
Me too.
He's tired.
Do it inside. Let's go.
- Okay. Let's go in. - Okay.
My gosh.
This is your room.
Grandma and Grandpa must have decorated it.
I'm so excited.
Is this really my room?
Thank you.
Sure. Gun.
Don't just read anymore.
You can make a mess...
and play all you want, okay?
Yes, Grandpa.
Soo Ho.
Your necklace wasn't in the bag...
of Gun's things.
Necklace?
Yes.
The key pendant necklace that was around your neck when I found you.
When I gave Gun up for adoption,
I put it around his neck.
That is the only thing...
that can prove where you're from.
I know where the key necklace is.
I had it with me.
You did?
Yes.
When I went to the hospital,
just before I went in for surgery,
it was in Uncle Nam Joon's house.
Hello, Mr. Seo.
My son was discharged from the hospital, so...
What?
To the vice chairman's office?
Okay. I'll be right in.
I need to go to the office.
I think something happened to the vice chairman.
I'll go with you.
Gun.
Mommy and Daddy need to go, but we'll be back soon, okay?
Okay. Have a nice day.
Gosh.
- We'll be back. - Okay.
- Go on. - Bye.
Look, Gun.
Are you sure...
that key necklace was in Uncle Nam Joon's apartment?
Yes. No Ah's mommy...
saw that necklace and asked me...
if it was mine.
- About Soo Ho's necklace... - Yes?
Do you think Esther swiped it?
No way. It's only precious to us.
Why would she need someone else's necklace?
Who knows?
She may be trying to dupe us again.
What? Then call her.
Do I have her number?
I do.
She won't pick up.
It may be at Nam Joon's place,
so call him too.
Just a minute.
What are you doing? The vice chairman isn't even here.
Listen.
This is not your place.
The auditing team received a tip...
that the vice chairman...
embezzled millions of the company's funds.
Embezzled?
The grim reaper, the manager of the auditing team is on it,
so he'll uncover the truth.
The vice chairman would never steal company funds.
He would never.
He would never?
Do you know people that well?
He may appear modest and without greed,
but who can guarantee what he's like on the inside?
This is your doing, isn't it?
You're trying to hide what you did to him.
That's why you fabricated this to frame him for embezzlement.
What nonsense is that?
The day the vice chairman went off the grid,
you were definitely...
at that hospital.
Tell me.
Where did you hide the vice chairman?
Don't just whine.
Bring proof that I did it.
What are you waiting for?
Drag Lee Soo Ho out of my office!
Let go.
Hello?
What happened?
The auditing team took everything including the hard drive...
from the vice chairman's office.
They'll storm the house soon.
Another thing.
I think Soo Ho's on to me.
What?
I'll have to be careful...
about visiting the vice chairman.
How dare you barge in here without knocking?
You still owe me...
the price for my silence.
I'm here for that.
Who was on the phone that you hung up like that?
Just say what you want.
You must have come in here to say something.
All you did was promise to give me the Aura gallery,
but you haven't said anything since, Mother.
How long must I wait?
You know I'm impatient, right?
The 20-year celebration event is coming up.
I'll give it to you after that,
so stay quiet and wait until then.
It's a huge project. You can't handle it alone.
Mr. Chairman.
People are here from the office. Please come out here.
We obtained evidence of the vice chairman's embezzlement,
so we need to investigate.
What? The vice chairman?
Gang Chul, you punk.
Please let us search his room and study.
Father, this is absurd.
Gang Chul? Embezzle funds?
I will not let them into our room.
Take them upstairs.
Yes, sir. This way.
Father.
Please open the safe.
This couldn't be...
part of Mother's plan too.
No. She wouldn't frame Father and ruin his life.
You found this ledger in the vice chairman's safe...
which shows the real flow of funds?
Yes.
When we searched his office,
we found documents that showed...
he siphoned millions of dollars...
from overseas Aura Mall construction funds.
That's why this punk...
suddenly went into hiding.
But there is another crime...
on top of embezzlement.
What was that?
There's more?
We checked his personal email account,
and he ordered that lies be spread...
about Aura Bio inventing a cancer treatment.
What was that?
But...
Lee Soo Ho...
seems to have worked with him.
What was that? Soo Ho?
We have the statement...
of a whistleblower from Aura Bio.
A whistleblower?
Yes.
The vice chairman? Embezzling funds?
I don't believe it.
He didn't seem like the type to do that.
He wouldn't do such a thing just for money.
- Mr. Lee. - Hey.
San Dal.
How did it go?
I just checked the movement of Kim Nam Joon's car.
This is our company garage.
But the one who drove it...
Yes. Around 3AM, Kim Nam Joon's car came to the company garage.
As you see, someone else drove the car.
If he needed to bring the car here...
so badly that he had someone else do it,
did he need some sort of alibi?
He may have.
But if Nam Joon...
didn't take his car,
what did he take from the hospital?
He hurt his arm and had a wheelchair.
I'm sure someone helped him.
Why don't I ask the hospital guards?
They may know something.
Let's go to Aura Hospital.
I'll be right back.
Okay. Be careful.
Call me if you find the vice chairman.
Okay.
Gang Chul, Soo Ho.
They were my left and right-hand men.
How dare they stab me in the back?
Listen to me.
You must dig into this matter...
thoroughly and without mistake.
You won't receive any pressure,
so investigate freely.
Yes, sir.
These are Park Gang Chul's assets...
laundered through the paper company.
Use them all to buy up Aura stock.
Yes, sir.
Yes, Mr. Chairman.
Come to the house.
Unless it's regarding work, please say it over the phone.
Your grandmother needs to talk to you.
It's about your parents.
What?
Give me that.
Nam Joon, it's Grandma.
Come home.
The chairman is sorry too.
Nam Joon.
I need to introduce someone to you.
So come quickly,
okay?
Okay.
I'll go for your sake.
She'll introduce someone to me?
Honey.
Did Esther...
or Nam Joon call you back?
I texted saying it's important, but they ignored me.
Personally, I find Esther...
more suspicious since she asked about Soo Ho's necklace.
Since she won't take my calls, I'll go over there in person.
What if she says she doesn't have it?
Then I'll have to go to Nam Joon's place.
It's not just any necklace.
It's the only clue to finding Soo Ho's family. We need to find it.
Then let me go with you.
You can't go to Nam Joon's apartment by yourself.
I'll tell San Ha to meet us there.
Let's go to Chairman Park's house first with her.
Okay.
- Excuse me. - Yes?
Have you seen these men?
I don't think so.
What now?
I asked everyone I could.
Let's ask one more person.
Okay.
Excuse me.
Did you see these men a few days ago?
I remember him.
- You do? - Yes.
He was pushing a wheelchair with a bad arm,
so I offered to help, but he just left.
Was the person in the wheelchair...
this man here? Please look closely.
I saw them put him in an ambulance.
I think it was a private ambulance.
A private ambulance?
Yes.
Is this the building?
The security camera that caught Nam Joon's car is in?
Yes, sir. That's it.
That camera should've caught all the private ambulances...
that went in and out of Aura Hospital as well.
If we can get the license plate number,
we can find out where it went.
That's right.
Gang... Gang Chul.
Hae Chul!
He hasn't woken yet.
I'm adjusting the coma-inducing drug,
so he won't wake up.
I need to tell him.
I need to tell Soo Ho everything.
(Jo Sil Hospital)
So this is where the ambulance dropped them off?
That's right.
- Let's go inside. - Okay.
Excuse us.
Do you have a patient named Park Gang Chul?
Give me a minute.
We do not.
You don't?
I see.
Let's go.
What is that?
- Let's split up. - Okay.
(Insufficient Battery)
I didn't find him.
Me neither. Let's check upstairs.
Okay.
Honey, don't do this.
No. Don't tell them.
I said not to stop me anymore!
So why did you upset me?
You've become her dog now, haven't you?
I don't care what you say.
You cannot go.
What right do you have?
Out of my way.
Mr. Park!
Nam Joon!
I told you...
to keep your mouth shut about Soo Ho being the eldest grandson.
You wouldn't do that little thing for me.
Have you any idea how sad I was?
You... Ae Ra, you...
My gosh.
Nam Joon.
Hello, Grandmother.
Thank you. Thank you so much.
Gosh.
But...
what did you want to tell me about my parents?
And who's the person you want to introduce to me?
Look. Let's go inside and talk.
Who is it?
Ms. Oh San Ha and her mother are here.
Ms. Oh and her mother.
Yes.
They say they're here to get Mr. Lee Soo Ho's necklace.
Soo Ho's necklace?
What necklace do they mean?
Ms. Cho?
Why is she here?
This is where Nam Joon is hiding the vice chairman.
So why?
(Left-Handed Wife)
Esther, you took Soo Ho's necklace, right?
Mother, we're in trouble.
San Ha suddenly came over.
She's here for Soo Ho's necklace.
- Mr. Park. - Nam Joon won't back down easily.
I'll come home now. Stay there and watch what's going on.
Forget this.
Go to the hospital with me...
and we can test whether or not you're my blood.
This won't do. Let's just get rid of him.
What are you doing without my permission?
