Why are you so surprised?
I brought her to make friends with her. Aren't you going to help me?
What about Ga-eun? Does she know?
Of course she doesn't.
What?
You agreed to help me.
Don't worry, I won't tell Ga-eun that Na-ri's my daughter.
She doesn't have a clue about us.
It'll never even occur to her that Na-ri's my daughter.
Even so. We can't let anything slip until we've achieved our goal.
I know. But I can't NOT see her when I know she's my daughter.
Isn't that too cruel to me?
- Wait just a bit longer. - I'm waiting.
I'm on the verge of dying while waiting.
Anymore of this and I just might explode.
Goodness, where has my precious Na-ri gone?
Why weren't you there to meet the bus?
I was five minutes late. Just five!
Mom, what if Na-ri was kidnapped?
Dear god, don't even say that.
Where in the world is Ga-eun and why wasn't she taking care of Na-ri?
Doesn't consider Na-ri her real daughter, does she?
Geez, Mom!
You know how devoted Ga-eun is to Na-ri.
I'm just worried.
Oh, my heart.
I'll go look around the neighborhood. You stay by the phone.
I hope nothing happened.
I'm sorry for all the trouble I caused today.
Don't worry, I'm sure your daughter's home already.
Thank you.
Isn't that Ga-eun?
Mother.
What are you doing?
Here I am going crazy because of Na-ri...
Are you out of your mind?
Hello?
Jae-bum, sorry about earlier. Did you take care of my sister?
What? Na-ri disappeared?
No, I didn't hear anything at all.
- Na-ri disappeared? - Yes.
So this is what you've been preoccupied with?
Mother.
You're so busy running around with other men
that you lost my precious grandchild?
Mother, it's not like that. You've misunderstood.
Misunderstood, my butt. I caught you red-handed.
I saw you get out of that man's car, all smiles and such.
Wait, is that why you were in Hae-iri?
This is the doom of our family for sure.
Now you go around with a strange man in his car.
For shame, how am I going to face the neighbors now?
They're probably all gossiping about my cheating daughter-in-law!
Mother, that man was the one who helped me find my brother.
You expect me to believe that? He helpd you find your brother?
Nice excuse there.
Mom!
What excuse wouldn't you give to weasel out of this?
I thought it was strange you went so far for lunch.
Mother...
Hello?
Na-ri?
Oh. Hello. Not yet...
What are you gonna do about Na-ri! How are you gonna find her?
You didn't find her yet?
Forgot all about Na-ri while flirting with your boyfriend, eh?
You call yourself a mother?
Not yet.
What is this I'm hearing? You guys suspect my sister?
What are you saying? She went to eat lunch with me!
No, it's not that. I'll call you when we find Na-ri.
Forget your child. All you care about your boyfriend.
How could you behave like this as a mother?
What's going on?
It's Na-ri...
Na-ri!
Goodness. Na-ri, where were you?
Na-ri.
Goodness, my child.
I was so scared.
Thanks for coming back safe and sound.
Thanks, Na-ri.
You serious? That tramp took Na-ri?
Goodness...
Is she gonna make a habit of taking Na-ri and scaring us?
- She won't do it again. - You need to keep her in check.
How can I live under this pressure?
I know.
What were you saying earlier about Ga-eun and a boyfriend?
Ask her yourself. My heart just doesn't get any rest.
Don't grill her for the time being. Just leave her be.
What? How can I not?
She got out of a strange man's car for all the neighbors to see.
I have a plan in mind.
What plan?
Mi-ran took Na-ri to her place?
Yeah, she found Na-ri wandering around the neighborhood.
She did?
She said no one was home.
I guess that was when Jung-hee and Mother went to look for her.
I wish she had called me to tell me.
She said she tried but the line was busy.
That's why she called me.
I see.
What a relief. I'm glad she got in touch with you.
Don't forget to thank her when you see her.
I won't forget.
I was so frightened out of my mind.
Oh, I'm so full.
Mom, aren't you gonna eat?
Geez, you idiot. You've got an easy life.
Your husband forgot you since he's crazy about another woman.
Screw him! Don't even mention him.
How can I not?
He hasn't even called when he knows you're here.
Oh, right. We should call Ga-eun's parents.
We promised to call them when we found Na-ri.
Ga-eun will take care of that.
By the way, Mom, I think her brother heard you go off on her.
What? You tell me this now?
Everything was so chaotic with you going off on her.
He seemed ready to start a riot.
You've got a knack for exaggerating. It always causes trouble.
When did I cause trouble? Your sister-in-law behaved suspiciously.
Geez, Mom. You really think she's the type to cheat?
And she ate lunch with her brother.
With Sung-eun? Then what's Mother talking about?
Sung-eun were already set to meet the guy who helped us meet.
But Sung-eun had to hurry back to the office.
So you ate together, just the two of you?
Right.
For so long?
The car broke down on the way back and then there was traffic.
Sweetie, please don't misunderstand. Mother jumped to conclusions.
I trust you, but Mother's different.
So be careful from now on.
I will. Thanks for trusting me.
I'm sorry, sweetie.
I won't suspect you either.
I know now how it feels to be doubted.
I'm sorry, okay?
Alright.
Honestly, I'm in no position to waste time on petty family problems.
What's wrong?
Huh? No, it's nothing.
Go to bed.
Sweetie, Sung-eun mentioned that the company is under some strain.
He shouldn't have.
Don't give it any mind. I can handle it.
Still.
I can still smell Na-ri's scent. When can I see her again?
Don't forget you promised to help us spend time together.
If you don't, I'll take her whenever I feel like it.
Alright already.
We'll take her to an amusement park next time.
And you haven't forgotten what day it is tomorrow, have you?
Huh? What day is it?
It's the day we first met in New York.
Ah, is it?
A most special day to me. I'll prepare a party for tomorrow.
Alright.
Sweetie.
Good night.
It's better to drink this on an empty stomach.
You have to drink it regularly to feel its effects.
You always eat out so it's hard to remind you.
Um, sweetie?
I was considering selling our house.
What?
We're so low on capital, there's no flow at all.
If we had only a million dollars...
Never mind.
I guess that's chump change.
Mommy, my throat hurts.
Your tonsils must be swollen again. You ate something cold.
I ate ice cream.
I told you not to. Does it hurt a lot?
Jae-bum, eat something.
Jae-bum!
Huh?
What's got you so preoccupied?
It's nothing.
Daddy, bye-bye.
Hey. Is your throat all better?
Yup. You're gonna keep your promise today, aren't you?
Huh?
You promised to come early and push her on the swings.
Ah... Alright, I'll come home early.
- Stamp. - Stamp!
- Copy. - Copy?
- I'm off to work. - Okay.
- Have a good day. - Bye-bey, Daddy.
Bye.
Lucky Na-ri.
Yup.
She makes a big deal out of nothing, like always.
Does my sister look like the type to cheat?
What a ridiculous misunderstanding.
I wonder if anything happened.
I'm gonna teach that old hag a lesson one of these days.
She's always glaring at me and giving me the cold shoulder.
I can't even visit my sister's house.
That's why you gotta consider the family when marrying.
Father, everyone tells me I'd be a great president.
Can't you let me try my hand at it?
I'm sure I can do well.
- My soup's all cold. - Right.
Why'd you call me over so early?
Why else? I was worried you were skipping your meals.
I made all your favorites so eat up.
Here.
What is this?
- Buy yourself something pretty. - Geez, girl.
This makes it seem like I'm fishing for an allowance.
Hey, what about me?
Wow, how much is this? It's too many to count.
How could you do this to me? What about me?
Shush, you're throwing me off.
Hold on, where did I count up to?
Geez.
For you.
I knew it. You wouldn't leave me in the cold.
Eh? That's it?
A bit of allowance, for now.
For now?
Alright. Just for now, right?
Here, have some sesame leaves. It's one of your faves.
It's good.
It is? Great, great.
I'll make some more and leave some at your house.
Along with other side dishes.
Not today. I'm having a party.
A party? With whom?
Today seems to be a special day.
It is. It's the best day of my life.
SIGNING CEREMONY FOR THE DREAM STAR JOINT VENTURE
Congratulations on the official launch of the Dream Star line.
You put a lot of effort into this deal and you've finally done it.
Thanks, Mi-ran. It's all thanks to you.
Feels good to hear. Let's celebrate privately later.
Sounds good.
If we weren't at the company, I'd give you a congratulatory kiss.
Shall I lock the door?
Jung-woo!
What are you doing here, Mi-ran?
Ms. Young-eun, my name is Julia, not Mi-ran.
We signed the contract for the partnership, did you hear?
Yes.
Work hard. I'll be watching you.
I'm gonna sleep over at my great aunt's. Watch the house well.
Have fun, Mother.
Bye, Ga-eun.
Have a safe trip, Jung-hee.
Let's go.
Director Choi, it's Ga-eun. How are you?
I have something I want to ask you.
Money's right tight at the company these days.
Until now, Jung-woo managed somehow but it's getting harder.
It didn't help that Sung-eun's been causing problems.
It's so bad that Jung-woo is looking into private loans.
Sweetie, take this.
What is it?
This is...
The stocks and savings my dad gave me.
Use this to for what's urgent now. Don't even think of getting a private loan.
No, I don't want to use your private money on the company.
Put it away.
That's nonsense.
How can I do nothing when the company's in a pinch?
This is my family's business.
Take it.
I want to be of help to you at times like these.
This is a way for me to help as a wife.
I didn't want to worry you like this. I'm sorry.
Don't say that. I'm glad I can be of any help.
Thanks, dear.
I just don't see the appeal of wine. There's no kick to it.
I'm worried that your sister ended up in trouble because of me.
That's not your fault. It's mine for leaving early.
Don't even think that.
The more I think about it, the more that hag pisses me off.
- Did something happen to your sister? - That hag of a mother-in-law...
Never mind. It's nothing pleasant.
Let's have another drink.
You're not going to stay and eat with me?
I can't, it's time for Na-ri to come home.
Come to think of it, it's been so long since we went out.
- You realized that only now? - Sorry, but you know how busy I am.
Why don't I come home really early today?
Okay, I'll prepare something good for dinner.
Alright. I'll keep my promise with Na-ri for sure.
By the way, Mother and Jung-hee went to the countryside.
I know, Mother told me yesterday.
Separate the cold plates from the hot plates.
Yes, ma'am.
I wonder if Jung-woo's on his way?
Is that you, honey?
Ran.
I bought some extra for you while I was shopping for dinner.
Thanks. I'll have to give it to my lover.
You practically set up house with him, didn't you?
I considered calling you yesterday but I didn't want to disturb you.
- Why were you gonna call? - Why else?
I wanted to thank you for taking care of Na-ri.
Don't mention it.
Are you going somewhere nice for dinner with your guy?
We're gonna throw a little party here to celebrate some good news.
I see.
When is he gonna get a divorce?
Others might look on your relationship disapprovingly.
- I'm worried for you. - Don't be.
It'll be settled soon.
I gotta go.
Bye.
Hi there, honey. When are you coming?
I've been waiting with our party ready.
I'm sorry, but I don't think I can make it.
What? Why? You have work?
Do you realize what day today is?
Am I someone you can set aside while work takes priority?
Come right now. I mean right now.
You talked with Ga-eun? She's always trusted you, Director Choi.
No, I don't think it's necessary to bother President Yoo with this.
Right.
If everything goes well, you'll be amply compensated.
Goodbye, sir.
Shall we have a private celebration later?
I can't take it anymore. No more of this.
What's for dinner tonight?
Spring rolls with shrimp and onions.
I'm trying to get Na-ri to eat onions since she doesn't like them.
You're on your way already?
Yeah, I'm done with work sooner than I thought.
Okay, then I'll whip up some of that egg dish you like.
See you soon.
I don't like onions. I'm only gonna eat the shrimp.
You can't be picky with food if you wanna grow up faster.
Didn't you say you want to be all grown up?
I'll make it taste good. Just try it, okay?
Huh? Daddy must've flown home.
Ran...
