There are two powerhouses eyeing the Noma Group right now.
The top companies in distribution, Inkyung Group and Dawin Group.
Dawin?
Yes. They're third in the industry and known for their aggressive takeovers.
Noma in Kangnam is the cream of the crop and its takeover will change tides.
So we're dipping our feet into the battle between Inkyung and Dawin.
What are our chances?
It's going to be a hard battle, but we'll win through
meticulous research, a perfect plan and a flawless execution of said plan.
Welcome.
Here.
What did you say?
Sis went out with Mi-ran to retrieve the laptop?
They've probably already met. I'm worried about what she'll might say.
She's gone too far. Why'd she go with Sis?
She still hasn't given up after everything?
Where are they meeting?
Okay. I got it.
Where are you going?
I have to step out real quick, Seo-jin.
Get the statistical data ready. We can't hold the meeting without it.
But...
If you leave without doing this, don't bother coming to work tomorrow.
It's your call.
You brought along your friend.
I wanted to show her pictures of my boyfriend.
Pictures of your boyfriend?
'What? She doesn't know that gangster woman stole her boyfriend?'
You look uncomfortable.
I guess you didn't expect to meet me again.
That's why you should be careful of your actions at all times.
You should listen to your own advice.
How can you be so shameless, I wonder?
Shameless?
I was going to let things slide if you apologized,
but now I'm gonna teach you a lesson.
Teach me a lesson? What could you teach me?
Ways of the fist?
What?
Have you no conscience? How could you come here?
Seriously, your conscience needs a sound beating.
What did you say?
I can't believe this.
You hear this, Ran? This is what he's like.
What right have you to criticize my conscience?
Ga-eun.
Fine, whatever.
In the least I want to know why I'm being insulted.
Why do you say I have no conscience?
You really want to hear?
I'll be the bigger person and apologize for slapping you.
You seriously holding a grudge because I slapped you?
You should be studied for science.
If you keep playing dumb and acting innocent, I'll spill the beans.
I'd prefer you come clean yourself, but if not, I'll lend a hand.
Come clean about what? Go ahead, tell me.
I've never been so frustrated.
Take your call first.
Hi, Young-eun. Why do you sound so breathless?
Calm down and explain slowly.
I'll find out when I come home?
Fine, I'll hurry home.
Sorry, but I think I have to go.
What is it? Why are you leaving?
Sorry, Ran. I think something happened to Young-eun.
Thank your lucky stars.
Same to you. You're the lucky one here.
What perfect timing for a phone call.
What? I'm not gonna dignify you with an answer.
Bye.
You should be pickier with your friends.
If you're not careful, you'll find a knife in your back.
You talking about me there?
That's a guilty confession, if anything.
How dare...
Thought you had to hurry?
Better go before you lose the chance to leave.
One more minute with you and I'll probably go insane.
You're beyond any comprehension.
- I'm going. - Ga-eun.
Look here, Mr. Ha. Why are you acting like this?
Even if this is about the airport thing, you've gone way too far.
I'm curious myself why you're friends with a woman like her.
Excuse me?
'Do I tell the truth or not?'
Never mind. Better for you if you don't know.
Let's look at the laptop. The pictures are all intact?
Huh? Well...
Um, about that...
Jung-woo, mission complete.
But Young-eun, she has the pictures.
Don't worry about that. I'll erase them all.
I definitely don't want my sister to see them.
'Kim Mi-ran, try as you might, you'll never get the best of me.'
I'll take two of these to go.
What happened? Where'd all the pictures go?
I'm sorry. The pictures couldn't be restored.
What?
'Is this Young-eun's doing? Why didn't I consider that?'
'It's true that even monkeys sometimes fall from trees.'
I'm sorry. It's all my fault.
That brat...
Excuse me?
It's nothing. I was just talking to myself.
You didn't handle my laptop yourself, did you?
Ah, the thing is...
I was a little busy so I had my employee take care of it.
How could you shirk your responsibilities when it was your mistake?
How are you going to make up for this?
Perhaps I could get you a new laptop.
Will that laptop come with my fianc's photos?
Your mistake has ruined everything.
My last ray of hope has vanished.
I'm really sorry. I understand how you must feel.
Mom, where's Young-eun?
She called and said something came up at work.
She sent this by quick delivery.
- What is it? - Go on up and see.
She said you have to open it by yourself.
What is this?
'Sis, this is my wedding present.'
'Wear it on the first night and melt Jung-woo's socks off, okay?'
I can't believe her.
Yoo Young-eun, what's this about?
You make a big fuss over nothing.
Why do you keep making me run around, huh?
One more time and you'll be the boy who cried wolf.
I'll never believe a thing you say, got it?
Your present?
Whatever! Bye!
She training me like a dog or what?
What is up with her? Is she trying to tell me something?
You have to pick up my aunts on the day of Jung-woo's wedding.
They're both inclined to get carsick so get them some medicine.
Okay, good.
Tell them to dress expensive, even if it means maxing out their cards.
Make sure of it yourself.
Alright. See you at the wedding.
My hands are full with the wedding. What to do about Jung-hee?
- Mother, I'm here. - Huh?
Hey, Jung-woo.
Did you look into Jung-hee's matter?
What to do?
We might end up with a lawsuit. Goodness.
Go to the victim's house and apologize.
That's just it. That's not enough.
I don't think this can be solved with an apology.
What's that?
Don't touch that.
Is it for Ga-eun?
You bought her more stuff when she's getting her gifts tomorrow?
And two, at that!
As for Jung-hee, go apologize to them.
I have enough to worry about as it is, Mother.
I know, I know.
But we should take care of this before Ga-eun moves in.
I think that girl's family is trying to rip us off for more money.
Can't you do something about them?
If you give them a call, I think they'd back off.
I'll see. If I have time.
Look into it, okay?
What good will it do to have Ga-eun find out about this?
One's for Ga-eun's mother?
Showering them with money, isn't he?
Goodness.
I hope you like it.
I thought a necklace was too common, and I didn't know what you'd like.
Do you like it?
Of course I do.
I have slim wrists so bracelets look good on me.
I agree.
You've got great taste. This is beautiful.
Thanks, Jung-woo.
Mother, is Ga-eun home?
Yeah, she just came home.
Ga-eun! Ga-eun, Jung-woo's here.
How am I supposed to wear this?
Ga-eun.
Hey.
What's that?
Nothing.
- What is it? - Nothing. It's a secret.
You already have secrets? You better not.
It'll be a surprise for you.
I don't like surprises.
So, did you go with Mi-ran to get her laptop?
Don't get me started. I was so pissed.
That ratfink.
Ratfink?
Seo-jin, ready for the afternoon meeting? We start in ten minutes.
Maybe he's interested in you.
What? No way.
Guys never really grow up. He could be expressing his interest.
Nonsense. You're saying that because you haven't met him.
Huh? You think?
It might be true.
After all, I'm quite the beauty. You should be on your guard.
You... Don't meet him, even by coincidence, okay?
Don't you worry, dear husband.
The only person I care for is you.
Really?
I swear.
Good. I want you to always look at me and trust only me, no matter what.
Trust my love and believe only me, okay?
Okay, I will, Jung-woo. You're the only one for me.
Geez, idiot. We'll never pay Mi-ran back.
It's a breeze to double the money? Like hell. We just lost everything.
What now?
You can't always win. Sometimes you lose a little.
Don't ever mention horse racing again.
I should've stayed away from gambling. I'm so upset.
Baby, let's scrape together a little and try once more.
What?
We can't return everything you're wearing, can we?
We'll win big for sure.
We'll pay Mi-ran back and buy you another bag, yeah?
That's enough out of you.
Listening to you is gonna send me into convulsions.
Talk about gambling one more time and I'll strip you naked.
Who is it?
Who would come at this hour?
Excuse me. I'm here on Park Jung-woo's behalf.
Excuse me?
This is the contract you signed, promising to stop Kim Mi-ran.
Remember?
You didn't keep your end. How will you make up for that?
Well, the thing is...
Wait, look here.
He didn't give me enough to do my job.
How can I stop her with that pocket change?
Did you see what Mi-ran wears?
I didn't have nearly enough...
You're saying you can stop her if you have more money?
I guess you can say that. Right, baby?
Who's your baby? You lost all the money.
Is this money enough?
Can you two make sure Mi-ran will not cause any more trouble?
We'll need more action from you this time.
What do you want us to do?
First, get her to move out of Yoo Ga-eun's house.
Then you two can stick by her side and keep an eye on her.
So separate Mi-ran from Ga-eun and bring her here, is that it?
- Yes, that's right. - That isn't hard at all.
When Ga-eun's married, she has to leave that house.
She'll have no choice but to come live with us.
Don't worry about that.
- And... - What else?
If Kim Mi-ran stirs up trouble before the wedding,
you'll have to hand over double the money you were given.
Double?
How much is that?
Just make sure it doesn't happen.
But...
Alright, we got it.
We'll tie her up so she can't do a thing.
Just until the wedding's over, right?
Tie who up? She's not a package.
What will you do?
Fine. We'll handle Mi-ran, so don't worry.
It's urgent. That's why I need you to come.
Stop asking questions and just come.
Is she coming?
Of course. She has to listen to her mother.
Baby, can we really do this? I'm so nervous.
She'll flip out, I'm sure. What if she hits me?
Then you get hit. Like you have a choice.
Your fault for using the money.
We'll have to hide this where she won't see it.
Yeah? That was easier than expected.
But it's too early to let our guard down.
If she were so manageable, I wouldn't have this problem in the first place.
Now that we have the ball rolling, let's prepare a back-up plan.
Look into what I asked you earlier, okay?
Jung-woo, let's eat.
Okay.
Jung-woo, you been keeping up with skin care?
Excuse me? Well, I've been busy.
Nonsense. Even if you're busy, skin care is a must.
The groom's skin is as important as the bride's.
Everyone talks about the groom's looks and the bride's figure.
Jung-woo, get skin care treatments for my mother's sake.
We can go together.
I know you're handsome as is, but skin care makes a huge difference.
Just until the wedding.
If you don't want to go with Ga-eun, I'll go with you.
Ah.
The soup's so good.
That was a joke.
Ga-eun, I'm on cloud nine today.
So this is what it's like to receive gifts from a son-in-law.
Thanks, Jung-woo.
What? You took more money from Jung-woo?
See, what happened is...
You stay quiet.
I hear you're planning to tell Ga-eun's family about you and Jung-woo.
What happened with Young-eun wasn't enough?
Why did you take his money again?
I took it for your sake. All for you.
- What? - It's the only way to stop you.
This is what they call killing two birds with one stone.
Who says taking the money will stop me?
You can't stop anyone with money, you hear?
Snap out of it.
Stop chasing something you can't have.
Think of Ga-eun and leave those two to marry in peace.
I'm gonna marry Park Jung-woo. Me, not Ga-eun.
Is Park Jung-woo so special? Why can't I marry him?
You poor delusional girl. Know your place.
What about my place?
I can handle things if you two would get out of the way.
There's no reason I can't marry Park Jung-woo.
You're the problem, Mom!
Stop showing off, you brat. You were born from me.
Like you can compare with Sun Apparel's heiress.
Stop chasing rainbows and get a reality check.
You're only hurting yourself. Can't you see that?
Get out of my way!
The way I see it, he'll never marry you no matter what you do.
See how desperate he is to get rid of you?
What do you know?
He loves me. Park Jung-woo loves me!
Like hell he does.
Ask anyone. Who would pay his love to disappear?
Wake up and smell the coffee already!
Baby, baby, stop.
Let's go in.
Park Jung-woo, how can you do this to me?
Think I'll let you get away with this?
How long will it take to get here from the States?
Ah, is that so?
Before you mail the memory card, check the pictures with Michael's camera.
Remember Park Jung-woo? Check if his pictures are on the card.
Good, mail it as soon as you can.
Thanks.
Thought you lost all the pictures. You had more?
Yeah, I have a memory card I left in the States.
Pictures more explicit than the ones on the laptop.
These pictures are of Jung-woo and me in my studio.
Jung-woo, seems these pictures slipped your mind.
How are you gonna weasel out of this one?
You're gonna blow the lid with those pictures?
Yup. If I'm not careful, Jung-woo will convince Ga-eun I'm a stalker.
I need more definite evidence.
It's working out for the better.
Pictures of the studio are more fun than ones taken on the beach.
What are you saying?
You want to take me by the hand and go to Ga-eun's house?
Is that what you're saying?
Mi-ran.
Don't call my name. The look you give me creeps me out.
You're wrong if you thought you could change my mind.
Think I've got no self-respect, after making me out to be a stalker?
You might not believe me, but I'm worried for you.
You're right, I don't believe you. Stop treating me like an idiot.
I'd be an idiot to love you after what you did.
I'd rather kill myself than to have lingering feelings for you.
- You disgust me. - I didn't want to back you into a corner.
But you forced my hand.
Please, Mi-ran, enough with this pointless fighting.
You want to stop?
Yet, you paid off my mother yet again? Why?
She demanded more, saying she lost what I already gave her.
They approached you first? That's nonsense.
It's true. Your mother asked me for more.
She threatened to tell Ga-eun everything.
That so? Let me confirm what you just said.
- Hold up. - Let go.
Give me a moment.
This is for you. This is how I feel.
How you feel?
Yes. If this is what it takes, I'll do it to hold onto you.
My feelings for you have never changed.
Enough of your games, Jung-woo.
My love for you has never wavered, not even once.
I've always been the same from the start.
Can you hear the way my heart reacts to you?
I always want to hold you. Always.
I will always love you.
You're a terrible person, you know that?
I'm sorry.
You know I love you and want you.
You know I'll waver if you do this to me.
No, this isn't a plan.
Please, Mi-ran.
Trust me and wait for me. Please?
Wear this when the gifts arrive tomorrow.
Wear this after the wedding.
Wow, the colors are so vivid. How does it look on me?
An angel, if ever I saw one. How can you be so beautiful?
I'm back.
Welcome home, Young-eun.
- Oh? Your hanboks are finally here? - Yeah. Aren't they pretty?
Wow, they're stunning. Beautiful.
Mom, I want to get married, too. Let me get married.
Stop joking around.
Thought you didn't understand why people got married.
You didn't want to get married ever, but now you do?
I always change my mind at least a dozen times a day.
By the way, Young-eun, what was that earlier?
You made me rush home to give me lingerie?
You've been acting weird. No more of that, you hear?
Sis, you gotta wear that the first night, okay?
Hey, hey!
Mom, is something up with Young-eun these days?
Why? Did something happen?
I couldn't teach that psycho a lesson or see Mi-ran's boyfriend thanks to her.
Psycho?
Jung-woo, where are you? At home?
Jung-woo, what time are you and your friend Young-gyu coming tomorrow?
Okay. Good night, Jung-woo.
You, too. Good night.
