(Episode 50)
Do you remember?
Yes. She was very pretty.
We called her "Seoul Girl".
Come to think of it now, I do remember Jung Mi Ae.
Those girls were best friends.
- Best friends? - Yes.
They were closer than sisters.
I think I heard...
they were always together even after they got out.
Even after they got out?
Yes.
Now that he knows we were best friends,
he'll know I approached them knowing all about Cha Mi Yun.
He'll suspect why you decided to invest in J Group.
Yes, he may think...
I'm here for revenge.
Hong In Chul went straight home.
He told her he'd send her a picture of you.
Then he'll find out you're not Jung Mi Ae.
You never took any pictures, right?
He'll find an old passport photo or something.
Carry and Cha Mi Yun...
were inmates together?
Are you sure?
Yes.
What was Carry in for?
Fraud because she couldn't pay her rent.
Can this be a coincidence?
Why did Cha Mi Yun and...
Even if it is a coincidence, this is unnerving.
When did you find out?
Why didn't you tell me sooner?
I wanted to be sure first.
I met with a cellmate and asked about them,
and Cha Mi Yun and Carry were very close. Like sisters.
They were close too?
Then do you think Carry...
approached us on purpose?
It's possible, but it's too soon to say.
What if she really did approach us intentionally?
Why do you think she did?
Is she taking revenge on us?
Why would she take revenge for Mi Yun?
They weren't family.
It makes no sense.
We can't ignore it just because it makes no sense.
Think about it.
Ms. Sul started to have those episodes...
after Carry showed up.
She started begging for forgiveness,
and suddenly brought up Mi Yun's name...
Those suspicious calls and items we received...
Do you think Carry was behind them too?
It's just speculation for now. There's no evidence.
That's not true.
It all started when Carry showed up.
Nothing happened for 30 years, and suddenly,
at the same time as Carry...
Honey.
This is no coincidence.
There was a reason I saw Cha Mi Yun...
in my dream.
Honey, you need to calm down.
Don't get ahead of yourself.
We need to do something.
We must come up with a plan.
If we're rash, it may bite us instead.
Ignore it for now.
I'll meet with Jae Myung tomorrow.
I don't like it.
I have a bad feeling about this.
Be careful of Carry?
I've been digging into her.
What? Why?
Did something happen?
It turns out, she served time in Seoul Penitentiary 30 years ago.
A penitentiary?
Carry?
For what crime?
It was something minor. That's not the point.
Cha Mi Yun shared her cell.
Cha Mi Yun?
That sounds familiar.
Who's that?
Han Myung Ho's wife, Cha Mi Yun, who died 30 years ago.
I heard they were best friends, like sisters.
Even after they got out.
Are you sure?
I asked her if she knew Cha Mi Yun, and she said no.
She admitted it later,
but according to their cellmate,
there's no way she couldn't remember her.
That's how close they were.
That means she lied on purpose.
Why do you think that is?
That's what's suspicious.
If they were that close,
Carry must have heard about our families from her.
That's right.
Cha Mi Yun probably told Carry we were her enemies.
Then Carry must have ill feelings toward us too.
Why do you think she approached us after 30 years?
And as an investor at that.
Are you saying she came to get revenge?
That's what my gut feeling tells me.
What? It's not like they're family.
Why would she get revenge for that woman?
Plus, she died 30 years ago.
How deep could their friendship have been?
Your imagination got the better of you.
We should consider every possibility.
We started getting those strange letters and calls...
around the time Carry showed up.
I doubt Carry did that.
"I know what you did 30 years ago."
Who else would know what we did?
Only we know.
But Carry may know if she heard from Cha Mi Yun.
Then Carry...
But still,
even if they were close, why would she get revenge...
for a dead inmate from 30 years ago?
That's a bit...
You must have gotten old too.
If it were 30 years ago, you would've gotten rid of Carry.
You would've said it's common sense to eliminate sources of trouble.
How could you say that?
That's defamation.
I'm saying, be on your toes.
Look over the investment again.
We received almost 100 million dollars from her.
There can't be a problem with that.
That's why you must be prepared?
What about you? I'm sure...
her grudge toward you must lie deep as well.
That's why I'm here.
We must find out who Carry is.
Can you think of a way?
It's not like we can just ask.
We need to find evidence first.
Suspecting her is useless.
Keep digging into her...
Should we have her followed?
Carry is an ex-con for fraud?
Really?
She doesn't have like 10 convictions or anything like that, right?
Who cares? For now,
keep a distance from her. Okay?
When? How bad was the fraud?
30 years ago,
she was turned in by her landlord for being unable to pay rent.
What? Are you kidding me?
Still, a prior is a prior.
But there's something much more shocking.
What is it?
Do you remember...
Cha Mi Yun?
30 years ago,
she had a baby in my hospital at the same time as you.
That baby died not long after, as well as her husband.
Cha Mi Yun.
What about her?
She died too.
Cha Mi Yun and Carry...
were cellmates...
in prison.
And they were best friends, too.
Oh my gosh. What a huge coincidence.
I just got goosebumps.
What I'm about to say is much worse.
Do you think it's a coincidence?
If not?
Don't you think...
Cha Mi Yun would've told her about us?
I'm sure she did, if they were best friends.
Then if we're Cha Mi Yun's enemies,
Carry couldn't be favorable toward us either.
Why did she approach us, knowing all of that?
You don't mean...
Carry approached us because of Cha Mi Yun, do you?
Why?
- To get revenge. - For what?
The baby's death, losing the patent right, and everything.
Why would Carry get revenge for that?
Plus, her baby didn't die because of malpractice.
Regardless.
Who knows how Cha Mi Yun exaggerated to Carry?
We must think of the worst-case scenario.
Listen.
Stay away from her for the time being.
Stay away from the nursing home too, okay?
Then are we not going over to her place?
We have to go there...
if we want to find a clue...
as to what she's hiding.
A clue?
Did Carry...
hear everything that happened 30 years ago from Cha Mi Yun?
J Cosmetic, stop stealing my patented technology!
J Cosmetic must apologize for stealing my technology...
and compensate me!
How is that farm being used now?
We should use it for something,
but it's in a greenbelt, so it's just sitting there.
You can always get it out of a greenbelt.
I'd like to see it sometime.
I feel like I could think of a use for it.
I will make it the best fashion park in all of Korea.
Take those pictures down.
Give them to me.
I'll keep them as a souvenir.
Was there a reason she was interested in the farm...
and took those stupid pictures of it?
Mr. Bong, it's me.
Look into all of Carry's shares and bring me the details.
She may have some under different names too,
so look thoroughly at other people's shares too.
Get on it.
The two families are one thing.
Why did she go to the nursing home?
Did Cha Mi Yun tell her about the baby too?
Is that why she went to see Ms. Sul?
Hold on.
Does Ms. Oh's aunt really have dementia?
Carry knows you're here to meet me, right?
No. I didn't tell her.
Why not?
Should I have?
Is your aunt's dementia severe?
Yes.
I'm sure that wasn't why you wanted to see me.
I'll get to the point.
Carry and Sul Mi Hyang...
knew each other from before, didn't they?
They met because of my aunt.
My aunt likes Ms. Sul.
Did Carry tell you to say that?
- Dr. Seo. - How did Carry...
and Sul Mi Hyang get to know each other?
When did they meet?
They met now and then when we visited my aunt.
That's how they got to know each other.
Is she really your aunt?
Yes.
That will be easy to confirm.
Since you and Carry are like family,
I knew you wouldn't talk that easily.
I depended on and trusted Carry a lot as well.
Come to think of it, it's as if I was possessed.
Tell me...
why she's interested in Sul Mi Hyang.
I'll make it worth your while.
I don't know anything...
about her personal matters.
If she's really your aunt,
I'll pay for her medical bills.
I can't.
Take a look first.
Did you think you could bribe me with this?
I can give you more if you want.
I'm being paid very generously.
If you want to find out so badly, don't do things like this.
Find out yourself.
"Things like this"?
You have money and power.
And you have a cunning brain.
Bribing people...
is in bad taste.
Good day.
How dare a mere assistant...
Find out for myself?
Fine.
Seeing that she's meeting Sul Mi Hyang openly like this,
Carry may be the one starting the fight.
(Nora Fashion - LaLa Skin Clinic)
Seo Eun Ha deposited half as soon as she signed the contract.
She used the money we received from Chairman Wang, right?
Yes.
The building the clinic is in is mortgaged up to the hilt.
It's time to shift over to Hong In Chul.
We tied the two families together with the greenbelt.
There's a suspected illegal slush fund by LaLa Skin Clinic...
for Illegal political funds.
There's so much already.
If Seo Eun Ha signs the contract for the detox line,
it'll be game over.
I'm back.
You're all here.
I heard you met with Seo Eun Ha.
I did.
As expected, she suspected your relationship with Ms. Sul.
She gave me an envelope full of cash.
Cash?
That's so her.
She'll hide Mi Hyang since she suspects us.
Make sure to get information from Dr. Park.
Yes, ma'am.
Keep it up!
- Sun Ho, faster! - Sun Ho!
Mommy!
Sorry I'm late.
He played with me.
He bought me a hamburger too.
He has quite the appetite.
He isn't picky either.
Thank you.
Why would Carry take revenge for that woman Cha Mi Yun...
about that herbal line now?
My point exactly.
And her baby died because he was sick.
It's not like she's Cha Mi Yun.
That's ridiculous.
You know how Eun Ha blows things out of proportion.
Still, we should be ready just in case.
So don't trust Carry too much.
It's a bit much to say she's taking revenge,
but it makes me uneasy too.
Why did she have to be involved with that woman Cha Mi Yun?
She can't be too favorable toward our families.
It'll be awkward seeing her now.
Don't make it obvious.
If Carry approached us, she probably prepared thoroughly.
We can't show our hand first.
Try to find out what she's thinking,
and why she showed up in our lives.
Eun Ha and I decided to go to Carry's place...
and look for clues.
Good. Look carefully when you're there.
Hong In Chul got a picture of you.
If he sends it to Lee Young Ja,
he'll find out in no time that you're not Jung Mi Ae.
Let's upload the article about the greenbelt.
Yes, Mom. Danny.
Okay.
Hello, Ms. Lee Young Ja. It's Assemblyman Hong.
I obtained a picture of Jung Mi Ae.
I'll come to you now. Please take a look.
Assemblyman. Did you see the article?
What article?
("Assemblyman Suspected of Nepotism Regarding Greenbelt Development")
What is this?
"Assemblyman suspected of nepotism regarding greenbelt development"?
"Company J suspected of receiving special treatment?"
Who wrote something like this?
It was Choi Tae Sun of Hana Daily.
Did you see the article?
Come up with a plan right away.
We're talking to the portal to take it down.
Does Assemblyman Hong know?
He does. He's in shock too.
What did he do, that this got leaked?
Hello? Assemblyman Hong? It's me.
I'm looking into it as we speak.
Don't worry. I'll stop the media as much as I can.
Did you find out?
Yes. I spoke to the reporter, and he said he received a tip.
From whom?
He said he can't say because he must protect his source,
so I did some digging,
and I think this was it.
(Innam City Fashion Park Tourism Complex Greenbelt Release Proposal)
(National Land Development Committee Chairperson Kang Min)
This is Assemblyman Kang Min's document.
Did this get leaked?
I needed advice from assemblymen regarding some real estate.
Remember Carry Jung, who came by a few days ago?
Yes.
Find out whether she visited Assemblyman Kang.
The public sentiment is bad.
I think they'll defer the release of the greenbelt.
Then what about the fashion park construction?
We'll have to stop for now.
We can't!
What about all the money we put into it?
We can't let that go to waste!
I'm sure Assemblyman Hong will take care of it.
He may take care of it politically.
Who ratted us out?
The problems never cease.
Prepare a rebuttal article.
It's ready.
"J Group has nothing to do with that."
Make sure they don't mention J Group at all.
Sir. Carry is here.
What?
Why is she here already? Darn it.
The article just came up.
Hello.
Hello. Come in.
Jennis, Mr. Koo. You were here too.
Yes.
Would you like to visit the fashion park construction site?
I heard you went with Jennis.
That's good enough.
But you're interested in it. Since you're an investor, you can...
It's fine.
Did she know there would be a problem?
Let's hold off...
on the fashion park for the time being.
The chairman did not approve.
You know that's what we have to do.
We shouldn't delay.
Isn't it odd?
What is?
Something bad happens to everything Carry invests in.
She came as soon as the article went up today too.
The detox fabric, the fashion park.
It's odd that there's always a problem with everything she pushes.
I believe the company persuaded her regarding the detox line.
What proof do you have for saying...
Carry caused the problems?
Do you really not think it's odd?
I'll think about it now...
and see what's odd.
We removed the article,
and Assemblyman Hong is on it, so it'll quiet down quickly.
The media always blows things up...
about nothing and makes a big deal out of them.
From what I hear, they decided...
to hold off on releasing the land from the greenbelt designation.
What?
Where did you hear that? That's preposterous.
It's in the news already.
Given that's what the media is saying,
I can't help but be concerned as a large investor.
I think I had too much faith in J Group.
Did she really come here to take over my company?
Is she a hunter rather than an investor?
Do you have something to say?
No. Naturally, you're concerned.
It'll be resolved soon.
Please have faith and wait,
and I'll have good news for you soon.
There's no need.
I think this is where it ends for us.
Let's end things now.
End things? Carry.
You know the contract dictates you must return my investment...
if the land isn't released from the greenbelt designation.
I'd like you to return the 50 million dollars...
I gave you as a retainer.
No, Carry.
The article only came out today.
You are too cold and rash.
The construction is in progress. Please give us some time.
I'm too cold?
I heard you were as cold-hearted in business...
as I am.
Pardon?
I wanted to learn from you.
Our motto is "honesty and fairness".
If that's what you wanted to learn, give us more time...
Then I'll give in this time.
Put the land...
in my name.
That's okay, right?
In your name?
Are you trying to steal the land for the farm like this?
She's trying to take it for free.
If not, the retainer...
No.
Prepare the title transfer...
so that I can sign it.
We will.
What did Dad say?
People are commenting like mad, saying an Assemblyman...
gave his future in-laws special treatment.
We need to stop it before it gets worse.
Let's talk at home, Mom.
How did it go?
We left midway because Carry came.
Carry?
Did she come to withdraw her investment?
What do you think about Carry?
What do you mean?
Did something happen?
No.
I hope this doesn't hurt my dad.
My mom's worried too.
What do we do?
We'll have to fix it.
What did the party say?
They won't drop your name from the nomination, will they?
They haven't said anything.
I'll explain and post a rebuttal article.
Who did this?
Can you think of anyone?
No.
Goodness.
We already have so many things to worry about.
I hope this won't affect my clinic too.
I'll talk to you later. Bye.
Assemblyman, Carry Jung did visit Assemblyman Kang...
on that day as you suspected.
She said she was here to discuss a real estate matter.
It was either Carry,
or she and Assemblyman Kang are on it together.
The company is on red alert,
but the chief director...
seems very calm.
Because it isn't a big problem for me.
Satisfied?
- What? - I'm your superior.
That's no way to speak to your superior.
Was being sent to Distribution not enough for you?
What, punk?
Are you going to keep speaking rudely to me?
I heard you asked to be transferred to the fashion park team.
Should I transfer you there?
The fashion park?
Now?
Didn't you hear about the article about the greenbelt... Ma'am?
You're at J Group thanks to your parents.
But you can't rely on your dad's status anymore.
You poor dear.
What about my dad?
He's doing just fine.
People should live honestly,
and according to their skills.
Your incompetence is bound to show eventually...
if you're relying on your parents.
Hey, you!
You're at J Group thanks to your parents.
But you can't rely on your dad's status anymore.
You poor dear.
Darn it!
Hey. Hold on. What are you doing? Calm down, will you?
- Let go! - What's wrong with you?
Hey. Why are you crying?
Are you hurt?
Stop crying. Enough.
Your make-up is going to run.
Get out.
Get out of my face.
Stop hitting on me.
I'm not hitting on you.
I was passing by, but I heard an animal crying.
That's why I came in.
Seriously...
Hey.
She's the accounting manager at Nora Fashion.
Although you may already know.
Hello, I'm Jennis Han. I'm the chief director.
Hello.
Okay, then.
Let's go.
Thank you very much.
I'm sure it wasn't easy.
I'm going to quit soon.
I want to focus more on my son.
It's true. Mr. Kang is just a figurehead.
Do you know who the de facto president is?
I don't think Mr. Kang knows either...
since he has never met or heard about the person.
All we know is that the funds go abroad somewhere.
It's China, isn't it?
It isn't China.
Then?
It's Canada. And it's a woman.
A woman from Canada?
Carry may be the one...
who leaked the greenbelt matter?
Yes. I confirmed that she met with Assemblyman Kang Min.
She asked me to transfer the title of the farm.
Already?
I barely talked her out of demanding the retainer back...
in exchange for the title transfer.
You can't do that.
Of course not. I will not lose it to her.
Did you check her shares?
Well...
Father.
Yes? What is it?
Nora Fashion's accounting manager says Mr. Kang is a figurehead,
and that someone else is the de facto president.
Is it Chairman Wang?
I think there's someone bigger above him.
The funds went to Canada.
Canada?
I couldn't be Carry, could it?
Carry?
Nora Fashion's accounting manager...
came to see Hae Joon.
He finally won her over.
I'll tell Mother.
I guess it's time to say bye to this place.
Did you hear that Nora's accounting manager went to see Hae Joon?
Yes.
They'll soon find out who really owns Nora.
Close the account in Canada.
They'll find out soon enough,
but it'll be boring if they find out too easily.
Jennis grew up in Canada too.
Why are they both from Canada?
It's too big of a coincidence.
Carry and Jennis came to the company around the same time.
What if...
it isn't Jennis and Mr. Kang,
but Jennis and Carry?
(Gracious Revenge)
It's a shame that you couldn't find the proof.
I wanted to show you how I keep my promise.
Don't be disappointed.
Since Mr. Kang is just a branch.
I can't protect you at the cost of my career.
I want to give it to Carry.
I don't like that land.
I'm prepared.
We'll find clues to find out who Carry really is.
Were you talking about something you don't want me to hear?
Did you hear us?
Is it the telltale heart?
What is your relationship with Carry?
No. Definitely not.
Who knows what they'll do to her...
if they find out Yoo Jin is my daughter?
