(Episode 23)
- Hey, stop. - Let's go.
- Are you all right? - Move over.
Is this something to stand and watch?
A woman just fell!
Sister. Sister!
Dong Joo, wake up.
Hey, call 911 now.
- I'm okay. - Are you all right?
There's a hospital right over there.
Get on my back.
- I said I'm okay. - Just get on.
Get on my back.
I knew it.
Let go of me.
I'm really fine.
Stay quiet. You're heavy.
Move over.
Normally, this pattern is evident...
with people who had issues in Korea.
Is something wrong?
You've been awfully quiet in thought.
What? It's nothing.
Oh, right.
Didn't you say you had a meeting at two?
Is it that late already?
Mother, could I be excused?
You seem busy. You should go.
Thank you for today.
I'll stay here and have some tea with Mom.
- Okay. I'll see you later. - Okay.
What's wrong? What is it now?
Hush.
Secretary Han is here.
What is she doing here?
We're in trouble, Mom.
What is going on?
I'm texting you since you're not answering my calls.
I have something to give you. Call me.
Gosh, she's so tenacious.
Who is it?
You don't have to know.
Tell me. What's going on?
Secretary Han, it's me.
I have a favour to ask of you.
What? Prying into us?
Hush. People might hear you.
She found out that we're from Busan?
Yes, she did.
What do we do now?
Don't worry.
It's like looking for a needle in a haystack
It's been a long time.
How would she find us out?
The problem is...
that Secretary Han is still prying into our past.
How dare she.
Why would she want to know about our past?
Han Soo Mi.
What is she like?
She's very intimate with Mother like family.
Mother can't do anything without her.
Does that mean...
Chairwoman Jin is behind all this?
I don't know.
Mother is being nice to me.
She's totally off her guard.
Really?
Then...
If she's doing it all by herself,
we should never tolerate it.
What are you going to do?
I need some time...
to think.
Sister, get up.
Have some of this.
Go home.
I'm not going anywhere.
Did you not hear the doctor?
You're wiped out. You should eat well and fully rest.
Just get up.
Come on and sit up.
Gosh.
Please leave me alone!
Mid Eum, what's that?
Dong Joo is sick, so she needs a wet towel.
Is it that bad?
She was fine, but she just passed out...
on the street?
I guess something happened when she went to meet her mother.
I knew it.
Seriously, even if she meets her mom,
she will be treated like a beggar.
It will just frustrate her.
It won't do her any good.
I know.
She probably shouldn't have met her mom.
Hey.
What are you guys talking about?
Did she go to meet her mom?
Yes. She went excitedly out after getting Reverend Kim's call.
Excitedly?
Then why is she being like this?
Dong Joo. Dong Joo!
Where's Dong Joo.
- Dong Joo! - Wait.
I heard Dong Joo met her mom today.
Did you know that?
Really?
I've been busy working.
That's true.
She even got a gift for her mom.
She didn't have it when she passed out.
I bet she did meet her mom.
You think?
Hey, Dong Joo.
Did your mom say something to you?
Hey!
Stop weeping like a fool and tell me.
Did she say something to you?
She didn't want to see you?
She asked you to leave?
She wants to live without you in her life?
Tell me her address.
I won't let her get away with this.
She abandoned her daughter.
How dare she play innocent like that?
I'll go smash her today.
Tell me where she is.
I said I wouldn't meet her.
I'm not going to see her.
So leave me alone.
What are you talking about?
Do you expect me to believe that?
You were so excited to see your mom.
And now you don't want to see her?
Just tell me where she lives.
Tell me now.
Calm down, Lioness.
I'll look into it.
Hey, Detective Han.
Shin Nan Sook, 52 years old.
I asked you to find her. How did it go?
What?
- No fixed abode? - Please.
Please stop it.
She's my mom.
And I don't want to see her.
I don't want to find her. Why are you being like this?
I'm not going to look for her ever again.
I don't need a mom.
I'll just live without a mom.
So please stay out of my business.
Please.
Please leave my mom alone.
Smile. No one died.
You're supposed to be happy.
Your past really does haunt you.
I thought everything would be over once I got married.
I'm just too nervous.
Don't worry.
I'll take care of everything.
You don't have to worry about anything.
Just make sure to win your mother-in-law over.
Okay?
I'm sorry, Mom.
I worry you all the time.
You didn't forget it, right?
Your happiness...
is the goal of my life.
Okay?
Just go.
[VIU Ver] MBC E23 'Golden Garden' "Nan Sook's Warning" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
You made it.
What is she doing here?
You said you have a favour to ask me.
Could you give this to her?
To whom?
To Shin Nan Sook.
We went to the same high school.
I saw her at Director Choi's wedding.
Shin Nan Sook?
I don't think she was our guest.
Maybe she was the bride's guest.
Hang on.
I have a picture of the guests.
Tell me who she is.
Hello, Secretary Han.
Oh.
Hello.
Hello, Reverend Kim.
I saw you at the wedding.
Yes.
I'm glad you're here.
We were looking for someone.
Do you know a woman...
named Shin Nan Sook who was at the wedding?
Shin Nan Sook?
Yes. Reverend Kim wants to give her something.
But no one with that name is from the groom's side.
I'm not sure.
We didn't have a lot of guests from our side at the wedding.
I don't think there was anyone with that name.
Reverend Kim, are you sure you weren't mistaken?
I will not allow anyone...
to meddle in my life.
Whether it's you or that girl.
Do you understand?
You're right.
I must've been mistaken.
I've been to a lot of weddings lately.
I'm sorry, Secretary Han.
Reverend Kim.
I was about to leave.
I'll drive you to the church.
I'll see you later, Secretary Han.
Shall we go?
Reverend Kim, this...
Why does she seem so flustered?
Where are we going now?
I'll drive you to the church.
Stop the car.
I can go by myself.
Shut your mouth and stay quiet.
Before I lose my temper.
The person you have reached is not available.
Reverend Kim is not answering the phone.
They seem like new clothes. Should I bring them back?
Mom, I heard about you from Reverend Kim.
You went to the wedding ceremony of Chairwoman Jin's son.
And that you are living happily.
I really miss you,
but I won't try to find you...
if you don't want to see me.
Please stay healthy and happy.
Your daughter, Eun Dong Joo.
Eun Dong Joo?
Does that mean Dong Joo's mom attended the wedding?
Could you give this to her?
To whom?
To Shin Nan Sook.
We went to the same high school.
I saw her at Director Choi's wedding.
Are you looking for someone?
Who was the tall woman in the navy dress...
sitting in the front seat over there?
No way.
I can't believe this.
So Sabina's mother is Shin Nan Sook?
Hannah Shin and Shin Nan Sook?
No way.
Hannah Shin and Sabina are from Busan.
Hello, sir.
Do you know where's Reverend Kim's hometown?
Busan?
Did she go to high school in Busan too?
Yes.
Gyeongjin Girls' High School in Busan?
No. I was just curious. Bye.
Chief Kim, it's me.
I found out Hannah Shin's real name.
Explain this.
You startled me.
Look at you.
You're being rude.
Wait.
What's all this?
This is Sabina.
Joon Ki.
Mom, you still don't believe her?
Is that why you hired someone to pry into her past?
My goodness.
Is that true?
Joon Ki, this is...
I didn't know you'd do this.
You approved of our marriage and pretended to take her in.
But you were prying into her past behind her back?
If you found out anything,
would you make me divorce her?
You always say you trust me,
love me, and that everything is for me.
But...
is this how you love your son?
Honey, I think Joon Ki is right about this.
You've gone too far.
You've crossed the line.
Did you really do this?
Is it really you?
Gosh, just stay quiet.
This is about our family.
Joon Ki.
Calm down. I know how you feel.
But I just did it to find out about her...
before the wedding.
If we take in the wrong person, our whole family will go down.
I had to at least do this.
The only thing I did wrong is...
that I forgot to tell them to stop digging after the wedding.
Tell them to stop prying into her past immediately.
Okay.
I'll do that.
Secretary Han.
Did you want to see me, Chairwoman Jin?
Secretary Han, you heard that, right?
As of today,
stop the background check on Sabina.
Chairwoman Jin.
Now that she's our family, I don't care about her past.
Get rid of this.
Good job.
Yes, ma'am.
What if Hannah Shin is really Shin Nan Sook?
Chief Kim, I need to talk to you about Hannah Shin.
I'll see you tomorrow.
You can leave now.
I know what you want to say.
I told you how I lived my whole life before, right?
A barbershop attendant from a shanty town with no buses running...
has come this far.
Do you think there is anything she hasn't tried?
What are you trying to say?
Do you know the expression,
"Defend something to the death"?
I've come this far shedding tears of blood,
but you're now destroying the whole thing.
Before you wag that tongue of yours about my past...
and put me back to the bottom,
I'll just...
end things here.
What do you mean?
End what?
If you don't get it, watch carefully.
What are you doing?
What... What are you doing?
Nan Sook.
Watch carefully.
Now,
I'm dying because of you.
No, Nan Sook.
It's dangerous.
Don't do that. Please stop it.
There are a lot of people outside.
Do you want me to call the people reading the Bible?
Do you want me to make a scene?
And tell them a minister is killing someone?
No.
I will never get in your way again.
I'm going abroad on a mission trip next month.
Then you won't see me again.
So please stop it. Please.
Are you sure?
Yes, I'm serious.
So please stop that.
Promise me.
Swear on a stack of bibles.
Even if you come back,
you'll get me...
out of your head forever.
I swear. I promise.
I will...
keep my mouth shut forever.
Please...
Please stop this.
Your hand.
How do you feel?
Now that you've come to your senses?
If you...
break your promise,
I will...
cut off my head instead of slapping you in the face.
Remember that.
Look into Secretary Han.
I'm going to destroy her.
(Episode 24 will air shortly.)
(Episode 24)
Dong Joo, wake up.
I'm... I'm all right.
Here, this is mudfish soup.
Here.
You are working so hard night and day to catch bad guys.
You need to eat something nice and hot.
- I'll enjoy this, thank you. - Okay.
Wait. This is mudfish soup?
Grandma, can you pack a bowl of this for me?
- Why? - Quickly.
Which girl will you take this to?
How did you know?
That it was a woman and not a man?
Dong Joo!
Mommy.
She refused.
Mommy.
She doesn't want to meet you.
Mommy!
Did you have a bad dream?
Did you dream about losing your mom again?
Be strong.
The detective said we are family too...
if we take care of and worry about each other.
Because you are lying here like this...
I have no strength at all.
I'm sorry.
I'm all right now, so hurry up...
and get ready to go to school.
Here.
Here it is.
Take it to Dong Joo.
What?
You know?
How did you know I was taking this to Dong Joo?
You like her, right?
Are you crazy?
Tell me honestly.
There's nothing you and I can't talk about.
Really?
To be honest,
when she fainted on the street yesterday,
I felt a little strange.
How?
I ran to the hospital carrying her and thought my heart would stop.
I made many women cry.
But this is the first for me.
- What I think is... - Yes?
What you think is?
Something happened to my heart.
To your heart?
Something happened.
Because she was so heavy.
You crazy boy.
Stop playing innocent.
There's no need for delay. Let's set the date for autumn.
Set the date? What date?
What do you mean "what date"?
I'm talking about your wedding date.
Grandma.
How many times do I have to tell you?
I have high standards.
You have lots of money.
You have two buildings in Gangnam.
Your grandson is good-looking.
You should be more picky about your granddaughter-in-law.
Raise your standards.
Look here.
Now that I've lived to this age,
I've realized something about life.
It's not to fill it.
It's to empty it.
I don't care about standards.
Bring someone like Dong Joo.
She has a good heart.
If you like her, that's all I need.
I don't like her. I have high standards.
The water kimchi was tasty.
Pack that too.
Okay?
(Paldo Health Pill)
(For those who can't eat, get dizzy, can't sleep, and have no energy.)
Oh, my. That's exactly what Dong Joo needs.
You're right.
If she eats that, she won't be sick anymore.
Mister.
Is this medicine really good?
How much is it?
Shin Nan Sook?
I don't know.
We didn't have a lot of guests from our side at the wedding.
I don't think there was anyone with that name.
Did you want to talk to me about Hannah Shin?
Church of Happiness, Reverend Kim Soo Na.
Born in 1967, graduated from Gyeongjin High School in Busan.
Who is this?
Look for someone named Shin Nan Sook...
among those who are one year her junior.
Shin Nan Sook.
I think it's Hannah Shin's real name.
Compare her to this photo. I'm sure it's the same person.
I understand.
But what is it that you want?
Do you want Director Choi to get divorced?
Then I'll look into that further.
I'm personally curious.
I'm indebted to Chairwoman Jin.
If there is anyone dangerous around her,
I can't just let it be.
Please look into it.
I'll leave for Busan immediately.
Oh, mama Mia.
Did you cook...
all this food by yourself?
I started a little early.
If we don't have breakfast, it's hard to get together.
I applaud you.
Every word you said is a gem and so right.
Honey, our life is a success.
How did we get so lucky?
She is our luck, fortune, gem and...
I get it.
We got really lucky.
Bingo.
This is unusual.
In this braised fish, you added sweet potatoes...
instead of radishes.
Right.
This also looks like sweet potato balls.
Did you learn it from your mother?
Yes. When we were living in Flushing...
my mom used to cook me Korean food.
She said I needed to taste it to cook it when I get married.
Is your mother's hometown Busan?
In Busan, they add sweet potatoes into braised fish.
They also make sweet potato balls.
Really?
Is your mother from Busan?
I don't think so.
I think she learned it here and there.
Find out about Secretary Han.
I'm going to destroy her.
Are you going to the factory today?
Yes.
You start working Monday so fully rest today.
I will.
What kind of a person is Secretary Han?
Why? Is anything wrong?
No.
It's strange that an outsider is living in the same house.
She used to be the secretary of my mom's doctor, Dr. Cha.
Dr. Cha introduced her to my mom.
It's been 30 years. No, it's been 29 years.
It's been a long time.
So, even if you're not happy...
try to understand for my mom.
Of course.
But why didn't she get married?
Doesn't she have anyone?
I asked her once at a company dinner.
She confessed to me when she was drunk.
Before she came to my house,
she loved someone passionately for the first and last time.
Why did they break up?
I sensed that...
she still had feelings for him.
I think there were some problems with the guy.
What kind of problems.
I don't know.
Maybe he was married.
No way.
But she never had any problems with your mother all this time?
She nearly quit once.
Because she blamed herself for the Golden Garden accident.
Why was that her fault?
At the time, I was sick so Mom couldn't go.
She and my father organized the event.
- Really? - Ask her if you're that curious.
So you can get to know each other.
Okay.
I might stay as the second favourite because of Secretary Han.
It isn't the same as being part of the family.
If you give them a grandchild, you will be unconquerable.
That's why you should come home early.
I want to become unconquerable.
You're so scary.
I understand, Mrs. Unconquerable.
(Employee Card)
She has been with Chairwoman Jin for over 30 years.
Does she have a man?
She had a relationship just once before she became the secretary.
She doesn't have anyone.
That's impossible.
When she looks like this?
What about her family.
She has an older brother who is married and a nephew.
She loves him so much.
Not only does she get him food, but she pays for his education.
Really?
This won't be enough...
to chase her out.
What do we do?
The way she looks at me is scary.
You told me everyone has a weakness.
We have to find that.
Be quiet.
Every time I look at her,
I know I have seen her somewhere.
What?
Where did you meet her?
I didn't have time to think properly until now.
This picture...
This face...
I know I have met her before.
You mean to say she knows you too?
If she did, she wouldn't be digging about me.
Where on earth did I see her?
Anyway, we can't let her be.
We have to take care of her.
(Gyeongjin Girls' High School)
Sorry to keep you waiting.
I had a hard time finding it.
Did you find Shin Nan Sook?
She dropped out in grade 11 so she wasn't on the list of graduates.
This is the student record of Shin Nan Sook.
Is she who you were looking for?
Yes.
I think she is.
1, 2, 3, 4.
Daddy shark is strong
I don't care about standards.
Bring someone like Dong Joo.
She has a good heart.
If you like her, that's all I need.
No, no, no.
I have high standards. I do.
What?
Are my eyes playing tricks on me?
Sa Rang, you must be tired.
It's so hot.
Oh, dear.
Do you want me to carry you?
No, you must be tired too.
Come and look here.
Look over there. There are so many things.
Great. Let's go and get it.
Let's go.
If we take these, we'll be able to sell them.
Are you sure?
Then can we go home and eat. I'm so hungry.
Of course. Let's hurry up.
Let's get it.
What are you doing?
We're getting boxes.
Run!
You guys, stop! Come here.
Are you all right?
Are you okay?
You kids.
I'm going out of my mind.
I went to the daycare center, and Sa Rang is not there.
What?
She went there in the morning.
I sent her there for sure.
She ran off holding her brother's hand but she didn't show up.
That little thing must have played hooky.
What's going on?
Hello, teacher. This is Mid Eum's house.
What?
No. I see.
Mid Eum didn't go to school either.
Then these two must have cut class together.
Let's look for them first.
You'll die before you find the kids.
Where can we find them this late?
Where could they have gone?
Mid Eum.
Lee Mid Eum!
- Sa Rang! - Sa Rang!
Lee Mid Eum.
You're dead when I find you.
Mid Eum!
Hurry up.
Mid Eum.
Sa Rang.
What on earth happened?
Why didn't you go to school?
Do you know how worried I was?
Look at yourselves.
You look like beggars.
What's going on?
Where did you find them?
Can't you tell?
They were collecting paper from trash around the neighbourhood.
What?
What's all this?
Why are you collecting these?
Aren't you going to tell us?
Why did you skip school to do this?
We wanted to make money.
What? Money?
Why do you need money?
I wanted to buy medicine for Dong Joo.
She's crying all the time. What can we do?
The pharmacist said...
if you eat that medicine, you will get energy and get better.
Dong Joo.
I'll get more of these.
But some medicine with this.
Dong Joo.
Sa Rang and I will be good kids.
Even if our mothers don't want us,
we can live happily just by ourselves.
Dong Joo.
We will really be good kids.
I will be a good girl too.
Don't be sick and let's live together.
[VIU Ver] MBC E24 'Golden Garden' "Gyeongjin Girls' High School" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
You promised.
You have to keep your promise and do everything you said.
You have to listen to Dong Joo.
Stay by her side so she won't get sick, okay?
Yes.
Let's go wash you guys off.
You guys are so dirty and filthy.
Come.
You should be ashamed.
You are an adult.
Even Sa Rang lives without her mom.
Aren't you ashamed of yourself?
Why are you crying?
Can't you give up on you mom still?
Come with me.
Where are we going?
I come here whenever I feel suffocated.
Just let it pass by.
You lived well without your mom for 28 years.
Are you a child?
Just let it all go.
Get back on your feet.
You were right about everything.
My mom...
she didn't lose me.
She discarded me on purpose.
But do you know what is harder?
My mom is so happy now...
that she's afraid of losing that happiness.
So she doesn't want to see me.
I...
I didn't want anything from her.
I...
I just wanted to find out what she looked like.
I only needed to see her once.
So...
I just...
wanted to call her "mom" once.
She didn't even want that.
That's why...
So forget everything.
All the things you wanted to say to your mom...
let them flow away with the river.
From today, live as if you don't have a mom.
Say it.
Say everything you wanted to say.
Mom.
Mom, it's me Dong Joo.
I miss you so much.
But...
I'll never look for you again.
Although I hate you so much...
Although you discarded me twice...
I won't live hating you.
Have a good life.
Be healthy.
I'll live a good life too.
Just you wait and see.
I will...
I will have a really good life too!
Just you wait and see.
I will have a really good life too.
Detective Han.
Oh, dear.
Hey.
Look here!
What are you doing in here?
What? You told me to get ready for an event.
That doesn't mean you have to be here at the crack of dawn.
This is a guy's room.
- You're so... - You want to say crude?
Wait outside.
I'll get ready soon.
Okay.
But...
you've fallen for me, right?
- That's why you got me this event. - Get out, right now.
Okay.
Welcome.
I looking for a bed.
Of course. Please look around.
I've been working out too hard and my body aches.
Do you have anything suitable?
Of course. Why don't you lie down?
You have a good body.
I told you, I've been working out.
I'm here.
What is this place?
What are you doing here?
You're always telling me you're too busy to come and see me.
It will be Chuseok soon.
I thought you'll be holding an event so I came to help, Dad.
- Dad? - I've been worried...
what I should be doing for this year.
How about a singing event?
Invite a singer to promote this place and hold a sale too.
Invite a singer? Who?
You're not laughing on purpose, right?
You're only cold to me, right?
I know your heart
You're afraid you'll fall for me
That's fine.
We want to do something quiet.
Are you on your way home?
Your shoulders look heavy
Am I too daring?
Will you buy me a drink?
This is so refreshing.
I really like this.
- I'll take this one. - Of course.
Did you find evidence that Hannah Shin is Shin Nan Sook?
(Student Records)
(10th Grade: Satisfactory 11th Grade: Satisfactory)
(Name: Shin Nan Sook From: Seoha-Gu, Busan)
What do you think? They are obviously the same person.
(Satisfactory)
Time has passed.
But it is Hannah Shin for sure.
Then she is Eun Dong Joo's real mother.
Eun Dong Joo and Sabina are the same age.
Are they fraternal twins?
No.
Eun Jeong Soo's patient record says he only has a wife and a daughter.
If Eun Dong Joo is the daughter, who is Sabina?
Good question.
Even if the records are wrong and he had twins, I don't understand.
Of the twin daughters...
why would she raise one and discard the other?
Furthermore,
Hannah's love for her daughter Sabina is...
is nearly unconditional.
There must be another reason for discarding Eun Dong Joo.
That's why she hid her identify so thoroughly.
I have a bad feeling about this.
I searched for her hometown address.
But it was so long ago so nobody remembered.
What should I do?
Hello?
Today?
I have time.
I wanted to ask you something too.
Where would you like to meet?
Please sit down.
What's the matter?
Do you have something against me?
Why?
Of course not.
Ms. Shin Nan Sook.
(Golden Garden)
Shin Nan Sook.
I hope you haven't forgotten your name.
You think you're something because Chairwoman Jin listens to you.
Did I find something I shouldn't have?
Why did you want to see me?
How about working for my company?
Our relationship. Who on earth?
- What? - Dong Joo.
I'll make up for all the hardships you had to experience in your life.
