But Reporter Kim, you weren't at the press conference.
Where did you get the picture?
How could you write an article about a rumor with just a picture?
Julia Kim is not a celebrity. Please take down the article.
I ask you sincerely.
Goodbye.
How'd it go?
Fashion In is planning to write a special feature about it.
What do we do?
What'll happen to Dream Star's image
if our new brand's head designer keeps having these scandals?
What happened to Julia and Park Jung-woo?
Why can't we reach them?
What is it you absolutely have to say?
Jung-woo, you're not even going to look at me?
Look at me when I talk.
I'm in no mood to be with you right now.
Honey, please don't be like this.
I'm really sorry I didn't tell you. But I didn't intend to trick you.
I love you and I was afraid you'd react like this.
Honey, you know how much I love you, don't you?
Even if you don't believe anything else, believe in my love.
I don't want to have these emotional fights either.
But I can't forgive you for putting me through this humiliation.
Honey.
Is there something else you're hiding from me?
- I doubt that's the last secret you have. - How could you say that?
Are you saying I'm a loose woman with many men?
Tell me the truth.
How did you behave in America? What behavior brought on these rumors?
Fourteenth?
So what if I was the fourteenth wife?
How's it different from the 2nd wife? Not like I got married 14 times.
You should've told me sooner.
What's the difference from finding out now?
Frankly speaking, it's not like I cheated. It's all in the past.
Kim Mi-ran.
I didn't know you were so petty.
Are you going to keep this up? Can't you try to understand me?
Can't you try to consider how hard it must've been for me?
You had plenty of opportunities to tell me.
I wanted you so how could I tell you?
I aws afraid you'd change your mind and leave me.
I wasn't in my right mind back then.
You know it well.
I just lost the baby I carried for 9 months as well as my baby's father.
Do you think I had any hope in me?
I lived in a state of despair. I considered killing myself.
Then I started to drink. And I danced on stages.
Do you know how hard it was for me to let go of you?
I grabbed a chance when I saw it.
If I hadn't, I wouldn't be as successful as I am today.
That marriage was just a steppingstone toward success.
For me, it's always been you. I'm different from Ga-eun.
Ga-eun?
I thought she was the devoted type but she's already dating Ha Jae-bum.
Every other women can change, but I will love only you.
You still don't know how I feel?
Honey.
Na-ri's back home?
Yeah.
She just fell asleep after crying for her mother.
It's for the better.
Even if it's difficult, she needs to forget Ga-eun as soon as possible.
I didn't take her away from Ga-eun.
- Then? - I took her away from Mi-ran.
- From Mi-ran? - Yeah.
She went to Ga-eun and brought Na-ri away by force.
Na-ri was so shocked, I went through hell trying to calm her down.
She didn't even bother telling me that.
You listen to me good.
I won't let that tramp take care of Na-ri, you hear?
- Mother. - Leave the tramp.
And get back with Ga-eun. That's the right thing to do.
Listen to me.
I need to hurry and cut ties with Ga-eun, and it's not just for my sake.
If not, our house and Star Fashion could end up in trouble.
What? What do you mean?
We might end up with Ga-eun's family's debt.
Loan sharks caused a ruckus at the inaugural ceremony
and put me on the spot.
They showed up at your event about her family's debt?
Are they out of their minds?
Why did they come to you?
Because by law I'm still Ga-euns husband.
I might end up with the whole debt.
Really?
Yes.
So I need to settle the divorce as soon as possible.
Oh no, then what do we do?
Na-ri needs a mother, but the tramp and her mother attacked me.
On the other hand, we can't take on the debt.
Sis, where are you going?
To get Na-ri.
Are you crazy? You're heading to Mi-ran's?
Mother probably brought her back home by now.
Whatever. You can't go get her.
Mom, stop Sis from going!
I'll be back, Young-eun.
Sis.
Sis!
Why? What is it now?
Sis went to go get Na-ri.
What? Has she no pride?
It's bad enough she was tricked all those years.
That's what I'm saying.
I get angrier the more I think about it.
Our whole family adored Na-ri. We had no idea she was Ran's daughter.
It's so unbelievable, seriously.
Mother, is Na-ri here? I'm here to take her back.
I knew you'd come.
Did she cry a lot last night?
Before anything, we need to talk.
Is she still sleeping?
She went to the hospital with Jung-hee.
Um...
I thought about it and...
Is there no way you'd get back with Jung-woo?
After everything's that happened, you'll probably never come back.
So what's left is a divorce...
What is it you want to say?
What I'm saying is...
It doesn't make sense for you to take care of Na-ri.
Mother.
If you two divorce, she'll have to live with us.
She'll have to get used to life without you.
Might as well get it over with now, no?
- Mother, I'll raise Na-ri. - Why would you raise her?
She's a child of our family.
Truthfully speaking, you two aren't related by blood.
How could you say that?
That's my decision, so just leave.
I'll take care of Na-ri.
No.
I can't let you keep her. She's my daughter.
- What are you saying? - Mother!
Don't call me like that.
And Jung-woo's having a hard time with your family debt,
so sign those divorce papers soon...
Is that what this is about?
That's the reason you refuse to give me Na-ri?
Frankly speaking, I didn't say you could keep her forever.
I left her with you because she was sick.
How could you and your son be so alike?
You leave her with me while she's sick...
but now that she's better you lock me out again.
Do the right thing.
Saying one thing but doing another is the right thing, is it?
I won't give Na-ri up. I won't.
How's Na-ri? Will she get better?
What? Ga-eun came by to take Na-ri away?
Alright.
Ma'am.
Don't call me that. It disgusts me.
Kim, step out.
Sit.
What is it?
Like you don't know. Give me back Na-ri.
If Mi-ran went to your house, your family must know the truth.
So what? What does that change?
Worried my family will abuse her now?
You live with your mother and Young-eun.
Think they'll like her now that they know who her mother is?
That's none of your business. And nice excuse.
Is that why you and Ran hurt Na-ri so much?
You two hurt her so badly when you care about her so much?
- Don't be stubborn. - Na-ri is my daughter.
Giving birth to a child doesn't make you a mother.
How can she raise Na-ri? She hasn't done anything for her.
This is all for your sake.
What?
Na-ri's young and so she wants to live with you.
But soon she'll want her birthmother. What then?
You'll be hurt more then than now.
Since when were you so concerned for me?
I had no idea.
Is that why you cheated on me with my best friend
and made me raise your lovechild?
Don't be like this. It wasn't because I hated you.
I didn't have a choice.
I don't care about your excuses. Bring Na-ri to me.
Are you confident you'll stay single forever?
You're already meeting another man.
I won't let my child grow up with a stranger.
What man?
You know something's up between you and Ha Jae-bum.
I don't want to argue with you anymore.
So let's settle the divorce and end things.
Then you can meet other guys without my criticism.
Right?
So this is the pot calling the kettle black.
If you don't plan to stay single forever, drop the whole Na-ri matter.
I have to get back to work.
So you want a divorce?
This is my answer.
Mom, I want to wear this to kindergarten.
You look happy as a clam.
Grandma, am I pretty?
- Mommy! - Na-ri!
Na-ri! Na-ri!
My Na-ri... What can I do?
She must be in pain.
Even now she must be crying out for me in tears.
You have to forget her, that's what.
First, this article is completely different from the one about adultery.
It's not stimulating curiosity. It's just repulsive to people.
What do you mean, repulsive?
Your word choice is too harsh for an unsubstantiated rumor.
Am I making things up here?
I'm saying this because it's detrimental to the launching of Dream Star.
You're making an assumption that it'll be detrimental.
It's not like we planned this.
That's why we're holding this emergency meeting.
I say we hold a press conference and tell the truth.
- That's out of the question. - This can't be brushed under the rug.
On top of the picture, there are all kinds of rumors now.
So let's make it into a complete rumor.
We'll say that the picture was photoshopped and ask for a correction.
But it's not photoshopped, right?
Leave that to us. We'll take care of it.
Is this how you always handle things?
You know that denial doesn't always work.
If people find out, the whole thing will blow up in our faces.
Why must be shoulder the risk of that?
You're being too harsh here.
Harsh? Who's the harsh one here?
Our employees aren't your personal scandal disposal squad.
How could you destroy everyone's morale like this?
Don't worry. We'll take care of it.
The clean-up isn't everything here.
How are you going to make up for the tarnished image of Dream Star?
How will we upkeep a first-class image at this rate?
Arrogant bastard.
Sorry.
I'm not cursing at you.
Director Ha doesn't like me because of Ga-eun.
He pities Ga-eun after finding out about you and me.
And who knows?
Maybe he feels competitive because he has a thing for her.
Either way, he doesn't like us. Don't take it personally, okay?
Jae-bum, lighten up. President Park says he'll take care of it.
The whole thing should've never happened in the first place.
Why can't they manage their personal lives better?
You're not one to say that.
What?
There's a rumor that you've got a woman.
If I've heard about a rumor at the cultural center, that means everyone knows.
You should be careful. Don't meddle unnecessarily.
What do you mean, a rumor at the cultural center?
You didn't know?
Some lecturer was fired, supposedly because of her relationship with you.
What?
What's this about Ga-eun quitting because of a rumor?
It's like pushing off a person standing at the edge of a cliff.
How about telling everyone the rumor is false?
I'll talk to the people at the cultural center and ask them to rehire her.
It won't be easy.
The students already know and it'll be too hard for Ga-eun.
Enjoy your food.
Excuse me, Miss?
How's it going?
Don't worry. I've got my guys working on it.
But about Ga-eun. I hear she's working at a rib place.
Life sure is unexpected. To think, she was of the Sun Apparel family.
Are you pitying her right now?
No...
I'm just saying life is full of twists and turns.
Did you say a rib place? Get her fired from there.
What? Get her fired?
Isn't that pushing it?
She'll sign the divorce papers when she's backed into a corner.
- You don't want to be paid? - Fine, I'll do it.
Consider it done.
Mister Cho, how do I look?
Are you filming a spy movie?
Dude, it's all about getting into the mood with the right clothes.
If you wear clothes like it, it's like announcing to the world,
“I'm off to do something sinister.”
Huh?
Think about it, baby.
How do gigolos and con artists usually dress?
Well... you used to be a gigolo.
I remember you used to dress normally.
Exactly. That's my point.
The real gigolos don't look like gigolos, especially in looks and clothes.
True. You approached me all friendly and broke through my walls.
Baby!
What the...! Why are you yelling?
Who said I was a real gigolo?
That was my first time and I fell for you when I met you.
- How could you say that? - Uh huh, sure.
You ran off with my alimony.
If that's not a gigolo, I don't know who is.
Whatever.
You just stay home. I'll handle the dirty work.
I don't want to get you involved with the dark side.
But it's for Mi-ran. I should go.
Baby, I'll take care of it. I'm already in the shadows.
This is unlike you.
Mister Cho, I almost feel like you're older for once.
Don't underestimate me because I'm young.
Okay, Mr. Man.
I'll be back with that.
DIRECTOR HA JAE-BUM
- Miss, we'd like to order. - Coming.
- Are you ready to order? - How's the ribeye today?
- It's very good today. - Then we'll order that.
- Two servings of ribeye? - Yes.
It'll be right out.
Your call has been forwarded to a voice message system...
It's beef-rib soup today. Help yourselves.
You got a woman?
What?
Kid, you can fool everyone else but not me.
Geez, Uncle...
If I had a woman, I'd tell you. Why would I hide it at my age?
He's got a point.
You never know. You could have a reason to hide it.
Idiot, there's ridiculous.
See, his defensive reaction is suspicious.
I didn't say anything because I know you've been hurt by women.
But it's time to think about remarriage.
Chairman Min just had a grandson, and it got me thinking.
Same goes for you, Seo-jin.
Me, too? All four of us should just stay single.
I'm included?
Oh, I'm so happy!
Speaking of which, let's all go to the sauna together.
We'll sit in a row and scrub off dirt.
He's so silly.
You're really not dating?
Nope.
Miss, you look out of place here. How old are you?
What pretty hands you have.
- Don't do this, sir. - You're just so pretty.
You know you like it.
What the hell? You ruined my clothes!
Are you okay? Oh no...
You know how expensive this is?
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Do you realize how expensive that cleaning bill was?
Your daily wage doesn't even cover it.
I'm sorry.
Forget sorry. I'm worried we'll lose customers.
I should've known better than to hire someone so inexperienced.
I'm sorry. I won't mess up again.
Forget it. Don't come back.
You didn't answer my calls.
Please leave. I don't want any misunderstandings.
Hold on.
What is it you want to say?
I wish you'd just mind your own business.
I'm sorry.
I didn't know you were fired from the cultural center because of me.
I thought I should apologize properly.
It wasn't because of you.
I was an unreliable employee.
I should've done everything I could to do my classes...
But I didn't with the excuse that life was too hectic.
It's all my fault.
But you had plenty reason to miss classes.
That's my problem.
I didn't quit because of you, so don't feel bad.
You say that, but I still blame myself.
So I want to help you any way I can.
You must be in a tight spot after losing the lecturer position.
No. I can't accept your help.
I can hardly pay you back for everything you've already done.
Ga-eun.
Please.
Just pretend you don't see me.
What are you looking at?
I knew my hunch was right.
About what?
It's the quiet ones who are worse.
How can she criticize my past the way she's behaving?
Honey, isn't this a clear-cut case of adultery here?
Don't jump to conclusions. They're not like us.
What do you mean they're not? How do you know?
How can you say that after seeing these pictures?
You're actually defending her?
- Stop it. - You're being weird.
How can you treat me like dirt and Ga-eun like she's so clean?
- Why do you trust her? - I told you to stop it!
Your pride's hurt. I get it. I should've thought of that.
Sorry.
Don't go digging around like this. I'll take care of the divorce.
Honey.
