(Episode 27)
So it turns out she was one step ahead of me.
They've committed adultery for 30 years living in the same house?
I'll show you...
how it ends.
Is this an express delivery company?
I have some documents deliver.
(1991, Barcelona)
Do you know the word, royal wrath?
A dragon has a scale that grows upside down on its chest.
If you touch it, you end up getting killed by the dragon.
Did I touch your mom's royal wrath?
Is that why...
your mom told you to go through my room while I was out?
To find out this picture?
It's not like that. Please don't get me wrong.
The door was open. So I just got in out of curiosity...
and hid for a while in a twist.
And I just found the torn picture,
so I put them together feeling curious.
- Is that so? - I'm sorry.
I'm sorry if I offended you.
Joon Ki is coming home soon. I should get going.
Do you think I'm a fool?
So you put the pieces together. It means you know it.
What are you going to do now?
If you know that,
know your distance and act like it.
You had an affair with your boss' husband.
How dare you touch my arm?
You should throw yourself at my feet and beg for forgiveness.
What?
My mother-in-law has endured a long time in torment...
because of the mysterious mistress...
from Barcelona.
And you comforted her...
acting like a faithful subject every time.
But...
what do you think will happen...
once she finds out it was you?
For the past 30 years,
you've fooled her living in the same house...
and working in the same company day and night.
You pretended to be a loyal subject taking good care of her,
but you had an affair with her husband...
behind her back.
Did you like it?
Was it gratifying?
To stab your boss who loves and cares about you in the back?
Do you even call yourself a human being?
Get out of here before Mother finds out.
Get lost.
Is saying what you want and leaving something your mom taught you?
I'm not going to deny what you just said.
It's not entirely true,
and there's some misunderstanding.
But I don't want to give you a lame excuse.
So?
I think I misjudged you.
I thought you were a scumbag like me,
but apparently, you have a bit of conscience.
Now that Chairwoman Jin is your family, you seem to care about her.
What are you trying to say?
I don't...
want Chairwoman Jin to be unhappy.
So...
I'll do as I'm told.
Then...
will you get out of this house immediately?
Yes. So please get rid...
of the picture...
Have you lost your mind?
How can I trust someone who fooled her boss for 30 years?
This is physical evidence.
If you break your promise,
I'll show it to Mother immediately.
It's hard evidence.
That's not playing fair.
"Playing fair"?
As long as you keep your mouth shut,
I won't say anything.
About the fact...
that you're Eun Dong Joo.
Is this Chairwoman Jin Nam Hee's house?
Yes. How can I help you?
This is for her.
Who sent this?
Just like I didn't give you a pathetic excuse,
I don't want to hear anything from you either.
"Excuse"?
What are you...
I have a lot of evidence that you're Eun Dong Joo.
You remember the day, right? When we had the event for the VIPs.
No, I'm sure.
How can I not recognize you?
It's been a long time, but I still remember you, Dong Joo.
He's not a fan, but your ex-boyfriend.
And that's not it. You stole the guest list...
of Golden Garden Festival in the archives.
You just did it to hide your real name, Eun Dong Joo.
Do you need more evidence...
that you're Eun Dong Joo?
(Delete)
Are you happy now?
I'll keep my mouth shut.
So don't say anything and get lost.
I will.
To keep peace in Chairwoman Jin's family.
What could this be to not have a return address?
Who is this with Dad?
Isn't this Secretary Han?
Hey.
You're home early.
What are you hiding?
Nothing. Is Dad home?
He said he'd meet CEO Jung and come home late.
Why? Do you need to talk to him?
Not really. I'll go wash up.
Hey, Joon Ki.
Why do you look so haggard? Is there anything bothering you?
Gosh, no.
I guess you're too busy with work.
Don't work too hard.
I didn't trust you a lot before,
but you're very reliable now. You chose Sabina.
I'm very happy thanks to you.
Really?
Do you really mean that?
Sure. You said...
you want me to be happy.
And your wish has come true.
In all my life,
I didn't know that happiness was right under my feet.
Joon Ki, let's not be too greedy...
and keep on living like this, okay?
Yes.
That's my son.
Please have this to eat.
I think you were too shocked to have dinner.
- What about Sa Rang? - She ate dinner.
Finish your meal first. And don't do that ever again.
Even though she's your daughter, taking her like that is kidnapping.
I'm sorry. I just wanted to buy her something delicious.
So you'll live with Sa Rang, right?
Well... I'm going to Peru tonight.
For tuna fishing.
So did you want to see her before leaving?
I heard from her mom that Sung Wook went missing.
I thought it was strange.
What's strange about that?
He'd never abandon the kids...
and go off the grid because of money.
He doted on Mid Eum.
Something's wrong.
That's what we thought, but Mid Eum got a text message.
It said he's doing well, so Mid Eum shouldn't look for him.
Still, it doesn't sound right.
I'm sure something's going on.
He must've had an accident or something.
This woman. Do you know her?
It's Sabina.
I saw her on the Internet.
Sung Wook met her at the gallery on the day he went missing.
It turned out to be another person.
She looks like Mid Eum's mom,
so Sung Wook followed her around.
That's ridiculous.
She's Eun Dong Joo. She's Mid Eum's real mom.
- Do you have evidence? - I'm the witness.
I hung out with them all the time when they lived together.
Then...
do you have any pictures from the time?
No.
Now I'm just being chased by creditors.
Mid Eum, my bag is so full that it's about to burst.
Don't worry, Sa Rang. I packed your stuff in here.
You can carry them yourself, right?
Myself?
Where am I going? You're not coming with me?
I should stay here and wait for Dad.
Sa Rang, wherever you go, you should eat a lot,
behave well, and grow with a lot of love, okay?
No.
I'm not going anywhere without you.
We're not strangers.
You have to come with me.
Don't cry, Sa Rang.
Stop crying.
You've always waited to meet your dad.
You'll go with your dad and live a happy life.
Okay?
No.
I'll ask my dad...
to bring you with me.
- Dad! - Sa Rang!
Dong Joo, where's my dad?
He just left.
What is she saying?
Dad. Dad!
- Sa Rang! - Sa Rang.
How did Sung Wook and Mid Eum's mom meet?
At an art institute.
Oh, right.
It should be at the art institute.
Her picture.
Mid Eum's mom was very pretty,
so her picture was used for the promotional materials.
What's the name of the art institute?
Well...
It was next to Deoksang High School in Eunpyeong-gu.
Picasso. It was Picasso.
Picasso?
Give this to Sa Rang.
I just can't say goodbye to her.
(Town Shuttle Bus)
Please take good care of Sa Rang.
And make sure to find Sung Wook.
Dad! Take me with you.
I'll go with you.
Dad.
Take me with you!
Sa Rang.
Dad!
Please take me with you!
Don't cry, Sa Rang.
- I'm home. - You're here.
Are you crazy? What if someone sees us?
Grandma is sound asleep.
Let's take a selfie together.
- For my profile on social media. - This is for you.
My gosh.
I'm moved.
All the guys I've dated just sponged me off.
You're the first one who got me a gift.
What is this? A dress, flowers, or shoes?
Makeup?
What is this?
I want you to clean up your room.
It's a mess. There might be a cockroach.
Am I not a woman in your eyes?
Otherwise, you wouldn't give such a thing as a gift.
Mi Joo.
Stop drinking soju.
You make me want to drink.
All right, Mi Joo.
Let's take a selfie together.
Forget about it. It's not like I'm crazy about it.
How could you get me a dustbuster as a gift?
Smile.
What? My room is a mess?
- Then you should clean it up... - Look at the camera.
You're so cute.
I am?
[Kocowa Ver] MBC E27 'Golden Garden' "The Anonymous Letter" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
Ki Young.
My goodness.
Gosh, what are you doing here at this hour?
You should go to sleep early.
Gosh.
Since when has she been sleeping here?
Hey.
Lioness.
Are you...
Are you sleeping there?
Yes.
That night, I came home with 50 dollars in my hand.
I was envious of the college girls in the bus,
so I cried a lot.
I really wanted to go to college.
It was hard to put Sa Rang to sleep.
She kept crying saying she wants to go with her dad.
Why did you do the laundry in the middle of the night?
Sister.
Come here.
I'm busy.
You haven't got a speck of romantic ambiance.
Okay.
All right.
Go ahead and fan me.
This is nice.
There are a lot of stars in the sky.
Sister.
Get me the star over there.
What?
Get me the star.
That's what you do for someone you love.
My gosh.
This is fun.
Here.
What is this?
(Play in a Different League!)
(Follow Your Dreams)
Entrance requirements for cyber universities?
Korea National Open University?
You said you wanted to go to college.
Quit working part-time tomorrow...
and study hard.
I'll support you with that.
If you don't do well on the exams,
I'll find you good teachers.
No.
You should have some herbal medicine first.
Your IQ only has two digits.
What did you say?
All right. I know how you feel. You don't have to explain.
It's so touching, right?
Gosh, you're so lucky.
You have such a cool boyfriend.
I'll think about it.
Think about what?
When you get something free, you must take it no matter what.
Actually,
I'm training to work at I and K Group.
What?
I and K Group?
Quit it immediately.
Detective Cha.
Just quit it.
Sometimes I get hunches working as a detective.
You shouldn't be involved with the family.
Think about it.
There is Lee Sung Wook's case, Golden Garden Festival,
your mom Shin Nan Sook, and your dad Eun Jeong Soo.
The whole thing is involved with the family.
The more I think about it,
the more ominous it feels.
Detective Cha.
Just do as I say.
You just quit looking for your mom and got out of that mess.
Do you want to get into the whole thing again?
It's not like that.
I've already warned you.
It's your choice. Is it me or the family?
Do you even hear yourself?
I do.
Give me an answer by tomorrow.
Otherwise, we'll...
I'm leaving.
Why is he so upset?
Gosh.
If we are remembering the same accident...
and is why we're having the same dream,
it means you are either the witness' daughter or...
Or what?
Or the hit-and-run guy's daughter.
Is she slow or stupid?
If she gets involved with the family,
she and I might end up becoming bitter enemies.
She's so foolish, silly, and clueless.
(1991, Barcelona)
What are you doing?
Can't you see?
I'm packing my stuff.
Are you really moving out?
When?
Today. I'll go tell Chairwoman Jin soon.
Okay. I'm glad you decided to do that.
Thank you so much.
I'm finally free.
Thank goodness.
Are you happy that I'm leaving?
No, it's not like that.
You should live your life now.
The end of adultery is only disastrous.
Before we face dissolution, we should move on...
and wrap things up without no one knowing.
Why did you want to see me?
I'd like to give you something to thank you.
Here.
You know it.
I'm the chairman's husband,
but I don't own anything.
Use it to find a new place.
Give it back to CEO Jung.
You can't even pay it back.
Gosh, Soo Mi.
Please leave.
Chairwoman Jin might want to see you.
All right then.
Fine.
Let's say you just took my heart.
Mr. Choi.
It might have been...
one short fling during a trip for you,
but I was serious.
Thank you for everything.
I didn't know you were here.
What are you doing here so early in the morning?
Is there something outside?
I had a lot of coffee yesterday, so I had a light sleep.
Actually, you don't look so good.
Is there anything troubling you?
Why would I be troubled when I have you with me?
Thank you for marrying me.
Sometimes I'm afraid.
I'm so happy now...
that I'm afraid I might lose my happiness.
Don't worry. We went through a lot to win this happiness.
I'll never let anyone take it from us.
I'm so sorry. I thought the room was empty.
It's okay, Mother. Please come on in.
So you guys are newlyweds.
I didn't know you'd be here in the study.
What are you doing here?
Are you guys having a meeting here without me?
Hey, you're so mean.
You know I can't sleep without you. Why did you leave me without a word?
You went out of the room first.
Where did you go so in the morning?
I went to the garden to pick a rose with dew on it.
Ta-da.
Good morning, ma'am.
Gosh, you're so silly.
Mother, it seems like Father and you are the newlyweds.
You think? Let's go to our room then.
(Letter of Resignation)
(Han Soo Mi)
Yes, Director Choi.
I need to have a word with you urgently. Are you free today?
Today? What is it about?
About Chairwoman Jin.
Okay. I'll be head to your office right away.
No. Let's go out and have lunch together.
I'll text you the time and location.
Dad, can I steal a minute of your time today?
(Episode 28 will air shortly.)
Good job, everyone.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Good job.
It's your choice. Is it me or the family?
Give me an answer by tomorrow.
Did you really mean what you promised yesterday?
My dream is to become a nurse.
Then I will study to become one.
Be ready to send me abroad to study.
Actually,
I'm training to work at I and K Group.
So you insist on working there?
What is it now?
"Did you really mean what you promised yesterday?"
"Be ready to send me abroad..."
Okay.
The goal now...
is the Nursing School at Harvard.
(Episode 28)
You said it was Picasso Art Academy.
It was so long ago that there isn't one in front of the high school.
I think we have to search for it on foot.
Shall we get going?
I'm busy today.
What do women like these days?
Forget it.
I'll take care of it myself.
Daddy shark
Is strong
(Human Resources Development Lecture Room)
Dong Joo.
Is your training finished for today?
Yes, Ms. Han.
How is it? It isn't too hard?
I'm not sure as yet.
I want to talk to you about something.
What is it?
After you finish your training,
you will be doing something else.
You won't be working as a specialist consultant.
Really?
What will I be doing?
You will be taking care of the Chairwoman.
Take care of the Chairwoman?
The most important thing is her health.
If you are all right with it, I want to hand over the work to you.
Don't you want to do it?
Actually...
I'm planning to leave this job.
I thought about it a lot.
I don't think it's a good idea for me to be involved with I and K.
I am sorry.
I'm sorry.
Dong Joo.
Do you know the difference between fate and destiny?
The arrow of destiny flies in from the front.
And the arrow of fate flies in from behind.
Destiny...
can be avoided.
But fate can't be avoided. Is that what you mean?
I also hoped you won't have any connection with I and K.
But the Chairwoman chose you.
The fact that you keep getting involved with this place...
means that you and this company share the same fate.
If you can't avoid it, stay with it until the end.
The truth that you are searching for...
could be there at the end.
Where is Director Choi?
He just left for an engagement.
- Really? - Yes.
What has mom done?
Joon Ki, where are you now?
I'm going to a lunch engagement.
Are you going to meet Ms. Han?
I know about it.
I beg you, please don't go. I will take care of it.
I don't know how you found out.
Don't concern yourself about this.
I will take care of this messy problem.
Joon Ki.
Ms. Kim.
(Letter of Resignation)
Did you ask for me?
What is this?
Why are you resigning all of a sudden?
I'm sorry.
I didn't call you to hear you say that.
What is the reason for this?
Why do you want to leave my side all of a sudden?
Just let me go, please.
What on earth...
Tell me.
Something is wrong, right?
Don't suffer alone. Tell me what it is. I'll take care of it.
What is it?
Soo Mi.
You know better than anyone.
I can't do anything without you.
Let's solve this together.
What is the problem? Is it money?
Is your family in a situation?
What is the problem?
I am very sorry.
Please don't ask me why.
Please accept my resignation.
Soo Mi!
Mr. Kim. Get the car ready.
Follow that taxi.
(Secretary Han)
The person you have reached is not available.
Why isn't she answering the phone?
Please sit.
You said you wanted to talk about something.
What is it?
You said it was about Ms. Jin.
One more person will be coming.
Let's talk when that person comes.
My son. What's happening?
I guess introductions are unnecessary.
Since...
you two know each other so well.
Mother?
Mother.
What are you doing here, Sabina?
I'm meeting someone here.
What about you?
I was...
tailing Ms. Han.
She resigned suddenly without a reason, and I want to find out.
The elevator stopped at the seventh floor.
I wonder who she came all the way here to meet.
Wait a minute, please.
She is here to meet me.
You? What are you talking about?
I actually asked her to meet me.
I had things to ask her about the company.
That's good.
I can stay with you, right? There are things I want to know too.
That would be hard.
If you are with us, it would be hard for me to ask things.
Really?
I understand.
Have a good talk with her then.
I will.
I will see you later.
Don't come in until I ask for you.
Joon Ki.
Why did you call Ms. Han and me?
If you have something to say, you could do said it home.
I forgot I had a prior engagement.
- I'll be going. - I saw the picture.
The year 1991.
In Barcelona.
Barcelona?
What picture?
I thought about bringing it as evidence.
But it was offensive...
and disgusting.
I didn't want to look at it again.
- I'm sorry. - My goodness.
This is why I told you leave my house already.
Joon Ki, this is a big misunderstanding.
Ms. Han and I...
We met at a vacationing spot 30 years ago.
We were overtaken by the mood of being on a trip.
You know, that restless feeling.
So we had a fling.
We spent three days in Barcelona.
We ate, drank tea, and toured around the place.
That was all we did during those three days.
After returning, I have been loyal to your mom all my life.
I have never thought about her.
Father...
do you expect me to believe that?
It's been 30 years.
Mother suffered so much during that time.
How could you keep your mistress in the same house?
I objected from the start.
I was against her becoming our secretary.
But your mother said she didn't want anyone else but her.
You should have stopped her anyway.
You know she doesn't listen to me.
All right. I was wrong about that.
But...
every time I saw her, I told her to leave my house.
I told her to disappear because I wanted to keep my family.
I begged her, pleaded with her, and even threatened her.
Don't just sit there like a stubborn bull.
Say something. Did I tell you that or not?
Everything he said is true.
It is all my fault.
Ms. Han.
How could you be so shameless?
You know how much mother cared for you.
How can you betray her like this to her face?
I'm sorry.
You're sorry?
What does that mean?
This is murder.
You two...
killed my mother twice.
Once in Barcelona.
And once again while staying in my house all this time.
You two are murderers.
Mother.
You can't go in.
Get out.
What will you do now?
What will you do now you've killed a person?
[Kocowa Ver] MBC E28 'Golden Garden' "A Party of Three" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

Honey.
What are you doing here?
Ms. Jin.
You. How could you?
How dare you in my house?
- How dare you in my house? - Mother!
In my own house!
How dare you?
- Please, calm down. - How dare you in my house?
- Let me go! - Let's go outside.

- Mom! - Mother!
- Mom. - Are you all right?
Mother!
Mom!
Drop the beat
Day, day, today bed, bed, cool bed
Thank you for visiting us
Come on, come on, come in
- Me! - Please lie down here.
Lie down here.
Oh, this bed is fabulous.
This feels so good.
It has three functions in one bed
One shot, two kills
Displayed over here
You're so good at rhyming.
Get down and find your cutie
Jump around and shake your booty
Come on, come on
What do you think?
She is pretty good, right?
Shake, shake
She is good at selling things.
You can't live without this
This is between you and me.
Come on, come on
She is a bit vulgar.
She isn't that at all.
She isn't vulgar. She has a lot of energy.
Put your hands up
Why are you taking her side?
Come on, come on
By any chance, are you...
No. She on probation...
I'm supervising her.
Probation? She's a criminal?
Father.
You must never go out with someone like her.
Understand?
Peace
This place looks expensive. Why does he want to meet here?
Detective Cha.
I picked it up while on duty at a drug dealer's house.
It's pretty.
But it seems like a waste of money.
I told you.
When you get something for free, accept it without a word.
Let's just leave.
It's really expensive here.
Stop.
Stop worrying about money.
Today,
I want to eat in a nice place.
Why? Is today a special day?
Of course. It's an important day.
What day is it?
Did you by any chance...
Did you put on a suit for this?
What do you think? I look great in a suit, right?
You do, but...
I am not ready.
Open it.
I mean...
Just open it, okay?
What is this?
This...
What are you doing?
Why are you giving me this?
Why?
You have to start studying for university entrance exams tomorrow.
I could wake you myself, but I'm not a morning person.
That will work just fine so get up right away.
Did you put on a suit to tell me that?
What?
A teacher will be joining us.
It is a famous coordinator for university applications.
And the person will be responsible for you.
What's wrong?
Are you scared already?
Oh, dear.
Actually,
I want to work at I and K.
No.
I will.
I'm sorry.
But I have to work there.
I thought about it all day.
I think I'll regret it for the rest of my life if I don't.
So...
The parking is free even if I leave now, right?
Detective Cha.
Please talk to me.
You can't leave like that.
Talk to me without getting angry.
I have to work there.
Do you know why?
Ever since I was five,
I have always wanted to know who I was.
Now I finally managed to find out the names of my parents.
I think I will go crazy because I want to know so much more.
I thought you let it all float away in the Han River.
I know.
If I get mixed up with that family, I'll have to face my mom.
But I'm not looking for mom any longer.
It's me.
I'm looking for myself.
I want to know how I was born, how I grew up,
and why I was abandoned. I have to know.
That's why I want to work there.
Don't you care about me?
I told you before.
The reason why we have the same dream is...
because your mom...
could be the hit-and-run driver who killed my parents or...
Do you think I didn't think about that?
But if I pretend to not know anything...
and stay by your side,
I think I will live my whole life feeling guilty.
So I will continue until the end.
I want to know who I am.
Who my mother is.
I have to know what happened that night.
Don't you know?
Sometimes the truth turns into poison.
Because everything collapses.
The fact that I met you,
never happened from now on.
Detective Cha.
Did something happen?
You don't look well.
Thank you for making up your mind.
You might have to start earlier than expected.
Ms. Jin is in the hospital.
Can you tell me what I have to do in detail?
It's all explained in there.
It's secret information which even the staff don't know.
It must not be revealed outside.
I understand.
And...
I have something to give you separately.
Did you say the name was Eun Dong Joo?
She came here around 2004.
Then it must be her.
This should be her.
Did she win at an art competition?
It was paper cutting art. She was very good at that.
This is a photo of her winning in that competition.
Paper cutting art?
It's Sabina.
It's a photo of her winning at paper cutting art in the US.
Why are you showing me this?
I avoided my fate like a coward.
But I hope...
you will find what you want.
I think that photo will help you.
(Golden Garden)
There is a connection between Sabina and me.
Sabina has what you are looking for.
From this moment, you don't exist to me.
I am so sorry.
- What do you think? - You are...
setting her up with Pil Seung?
Pil Seung.
Is this Lee Yu Jeong Obstetrics? I want to ask you something.
A new secretary will be coming today.
