What is it? Am I that handsome?
You seem to be in a good mood.
Am I? When was I in a bad mood?
We should try to live happy and fun lives.
You should smile more, kid. You're always all gloom.
Did you forget we're supposed to be professional at work?
With no pet names like 'kid.'
Geez, he's strict.
I wonder if her interview's over.
Huh?
What brings you here?
Jae-bum, please don't get involved in my affairs.
What are you...?
You're the one who set up my interview today, didn't you?
Ah. I'm sorry if you were insulted. I just wanted to help.
I'll handle my own affairs.
I can take care of myself just fine without your help.
The thing is, you misunderstood. I did show them your portfolio.
But I didn't bribe them to hire you or anything.
Regardless, I can take care of myself.
Please don't do this again.
Goodbye.
Ga-eun.
Don't jump to ridiculous conclusions.
What conclusions?
Ga-eun!
Yoo Ga-eun, is what I did so wrong?
Don't, please. Stop meddling in my life.
- See, I can't do that. - What do you mean?
Is there some reason you have to help me?
There's no reason for that when I'm against it.
This isn't something to get so angry over.
I'm helping out during a hard time. Why refuse it straightaway?
Do I look pathetic to you?
I'm not under duress. I don't want your pity.
And I don't want your help.
Please, stay out of my business.
Ga-eun.
What? You refused the position?
I did.
Why'd you do that? You're in no position to reject job offers.
Yu-mi, I'd rather starve to death than work there.
Why can't you work there?
You gonna work at the rib place then? Thought you were fired.
If getting in easy hurts your pride, work hard and prove your worth.
That's not the only problem.
No?
Jung-woo is making us out to be in an adulterous relationship.
He had pictures taken of us together and is trying to separate me from Na-ri.
Oh my god...
That man just outdoes himself each time.
Doesn't he have a shred of conscience?
If I'm not careful, this could hurt Ha Jae-bum as well.
You saw her. She even visits his office.
I can't believe this.
I'll give you your divorce.
It's a waste to want revenge on a fool like you.
'So you changed your mind because of that jerk, did you?'
'Then I can't make it so easy for you.'
What are you thinking about?
Isn't this for the better?
Get her to sign the papers and marry me.
Aren't you insulted? It's clear they're dating.
Our first priority isn't the divorce. It's getting Na-ri to like you, right?
That'll naturally happen if we live together, I think.
Mother says Ga-eun stopped by yesterday to see Na-ri.
What?
She let her into the house, just like that?
How could she let them meet?
Na-ri was asleep so she didn't see Ga-eun.
I told her not to let Ga-eun in, but since Na-ri's so sick...
Keeping Ga-eun away won't solve things.
If we cut off Ga-eun so abruptly, I'm afraid Na-ri will never get better.
Impossible.
Don't tell me you're hung up over Ga-eun.
Don't be ridiculous.
Then why are you hesitating?
Fine. Keep this up and I'll do things my way.
I'm not done talking here.
Mother, it's me. I heard Ga-eun came by yesterday.
What the heck was that weird tension? Don't tell me you...
We'll talk later.
Come in.
I have to talk to you.
What is it?
As promised, we took care of the articles. There's no need to worry.
That's a relief.
Please make sure nothing like this happens again.
I will.
You have something more to say?
I'm just curious about your relationship with my wife.
Your wife?
Are you referring to Yoo Ga-eun or Kim Mi-ran?
What kind of question is that?
Ga-eun and I are still technically husband and wife by law.
Are you now?
I catch you two together frequently these days.
My wife is still a married woman. I wanted to make that clear.
What's that?
I'm afraid you'll be misunderstood, just like how Julia was recently.
President Park Jung-woo!
Your hair's a mess. Why won't you let me brush it?
You don't want me to brush it?
Na-ri.
Why are you here? Huh?
I came to see Na-ri.
You were doing your hair? I'll brush it for you.
You shouldn't just come by like this.
I'm still the mistress of this house. You need my permission to come.
Mistress of the house?
What do you two think you're doing?
Don't raise your voices. Sit and talk like adults.
You'll scare Na-ri.
Let's make things clear today with Mother as our witness.
You refuse to sign the papers unless we give you Na-ri?
I believe you already knew about that condition.
Listen to me good.
Jung-woo and I will not give Na-ri to you.
Technically speaking, you're a complete stranger.
You may have given birth to her, but you're a stranger as well.
Na-ri's my daughter on the family register.
Don't be ridiculous.
Jung-woo and I, and even Mother here...
What? Me?
No one in our family wants you to raise Na-ri.
Our family? I haven't signed anything yet.
- Getting ahead of yourself? - No one here is on your side.
So stop making things hard for everyone and make a clean break.
When will you get it?
Give me Na-ri and I'll give you what you want.
I told you, you can't have Na-ri.
Is Ha Jae-bum willing to accept Na-ri?
I didn't know he was such an open-minded person.
Why are you bringing him up?
Kim Mi-ran, you're really gonna take that alley?
Is this why you wanted to talk in front of Mother?
Hold up, hold up. What is this about?
- A guy? - Yes, Mother.
Ga-eun's involved with a man these days.
She even had a private meeting with him in his office today.
Kim Mi-ran!
Private? What is this nonsense?
Ga-eun, you're already with another guy?
Incredible, right?
She used Sung-eun as an excuse and now it's getting serious...
Write a novel, why don't you?
Hold up, are we talking about the guy I saw in front of our house?
You know about him?
They've been together a while.
Goodness gracious...
So you've been badgering my poor Jung-woo for nothing?
Mother, I don't see why I have to explain myself like this.
But it's not true. I'm innocent.
Innocent, my butt. I saw it with my own two eyes.
You insisted it wasn't anything so I let it slide then.
But if you're still meeting him, that changes things.
- Mother. - Don't even call me that.
You listen to me good.
Even if Na-ri cries every day for you, I won't let a stranger raise her.
Keep that in mind. It'll happen over my dead body.
Mother, please don't misunderstand.
Ask any stranger if it makes sense for you to insist on raising Na-ri
when her birthparents are alive and kicking.
Mother, you've raised children before.
How can you not understand me when you're a mother also?
I can't live without Na-ri. I can't live apart from her.
And if you don't?
What are you going to do if neither Jung-woo nor I give her up?
- You can't have Na-ri. - Mother!
I don't want to hear anymore. Get out of my house.
And don't even think about coming back. You'll only confuse Na-ri.
Just stamp your seal here.
Is that good?
You made the right decision.
A loan like this is nothing compared to the money you'll make.
This is what they mean by money makes money.
Is land speculation any different?
You use a loan to buy land and wait for it to multiply in value.
I've never done that before but my friends made their fortunes that way.
So in 3 months, I'll have double my investment excluding the profits?
Yes, you will. That's what the contract says, right?
If you don't make that much, we'll refund you everything.
See, it says it right here. You read it, remember?
If this doesn't work out, I'm ruined.
I even took out a loan. This is a sure deal, right?
Geez, ma'am, why do you worry so much?
Yesterday, the president of Wonju Construction invested 30 million.
- So much? - It's true.
Think about it.
Would a man of his position give that huge sum to just anyone?
Ma'am, if you don't trust us, you can back out now.
We'll just destroy this loan contract.
Oh no, oh no.
One second.
Hello?
Hello, Chairman. Of Hwangsan Construction.
Chairman Park?
Cheers!
Cheerios!
Oh, that's good.
So refreshing after a hard day's work.
Baby, I understand now why Koreans can't give up soju.
I'm with you.
It's so refreshing and tasty.
I saw you in a different light, Mister Cho.
Why are you so good at stuff like that?
How'd you scam her out of that huge sum in just days?
I've got a widespread network.
Those guys can talk anyone into anything.
Baby, if you ever need to scam anyone, I'm your man.
I'll call my boys and set the trap straightaways.
Good for you. You must be SO proud.
Thanks.
Then how about hooking a rich man?
You're good at that stuff.
For who? Ga-eun's mom?
Should we? Scamming her money is too boring, right?
Shall we spice it up a bit?
Not for her mother. I want a rich guy.
What!
I'm starting to get a little sick of you.
I know you're helping my daughter but I can't believe I'm living with a crook.
Geez.
What the hell, baby! Getting sick of me?
I'll be real upset if you say things like that.
I'm dirtying these clean hands for you.
Baby, I'm making a huge sacrifice here.
What if things go wrong and I'm found out to be behind everything?
I'll land back in the doghouse and have to eat rice with beans.
Alright, it was a slip of the tongue. Calm down already.
Am I wrong, baby?
I left you out of it for your sake.
Acting so righteous.
Frankly speaking, you're the one who lost Mi-ran's money while in America.
Why are you drudging up the past?
So don't judge me.
I don't ask about the loser you hooked up with while there.
Go away.
Mister Cho, I'm sorry.
Please? Don't be mad.
No.
C'mon, please? Please?
- You gonna stay mad? - What are you doing, baby?
Smile.
Chairman, I heard a bad rumor about Seo-jin's mother.
Yeah?
- A scandal with some Mr. K? - You heard?
Not like this is her first scandal. I'm okay with it.
It means she's still attractive for a middle-aged actress.
How generous of you.
Does it upset you?
This isn't your mother's first scandal. I'm long over it.
I wish she'd meet someone better than you and settle down.
That'll put a stop to all the gossip.
Kid, think it's so easy to meet someone better than me?
I'm the one who raised you. Are you on your mother's side?
Of course not.
I would've lived with her then.
I'm your son but you made me start at the bottom and won't promote me.
It's all for your sake. You're not even very ambitious.
So you're disgruntled?
Father, who isn't ambitious?
I'm following your orders because as of yet I lack the confidence to take over.
Then stop complaining.
Where's Jae-bum? Why isn't he eating any fruit?
I think something upsetting happened to him.
These days he acts like a boy going through puberty.
One day he's happy, the next sad. It's real strange.
He's in love. I'm sure of it.
Who is it?
I wouldn't tell you if I knew, I mean, I don't know.
I'm not under duress. I don't want your pity.
And I don't want your help.
Please, stay out of my business.
Not like I gave her money. All I did was find her a job.
Why the stiff pride?
I catch you two together frequently these days.
Did I cause some sort of misunderstanding?
Sis, how did the interview go?
I don't think it will work out. It went badly.
Don't be too disappointed.
Even young people have a hard time finding jobs.
Yeah, don't worry. We won't starve.
I know. I'm looking around so I'll find something soon.
Don't run yourself into the ground.
Divorce Jung-woo and get a lot of alimony out of him.
You can't hold out forever. Think of your future.
Mom's right, Sis.
Get a buttload of money from both Jung-woo and Mi-ran.
They gotta pay for ruining the family.
That's reprehensible by law.
Don't think I don't know.
I'm just waiting for a chance to bring Na-ri home.
After everything I said, you're still being stubborn?
I won't forgive you if you bring her here.
Don't bring that disgusting woman's child here.
I already regret loving her and treating her well.
Mom.
I feel the same, Sis. I don't want to see Na-ri.
I can't because I think I'll feel this urge to hit her.
Even you?
It's me.
Did you decide to sign the papers?
Was that it?
That why you're spreading rumors about me and Ha Jae-bum?
Is that your plan?
Don't be so crude.
You and Ha Jae-bum really do have an intimate relationship, no?
Fine, if that's how you want to play.
What do you mean fine?
You're going to end things?
You made the right decision. You should've done so sooner.
No, I'm not going to do that.
I told you, I'll never do what you and Jung-woo want.
You messed with the wrong person.
Ga-eun!
What is she...?
What did Na-ri's mother say?
Na-ri's mother is me.
She keeps thinking she's Na-ri's mother because you call her that.
I messed with the wrong person? What is she thinking?
What are you going to do if Jung-woo and I don't give her up?
You can't have Na-ri.
'Dad, would you also want me to give up Na-ri?'
'You understand me, don't you? You know how much I love her.'
'I can't live without her.'
'She is my hope. My everything.'
'How can I give her up when she is my life?'
'I won't have any hope left without her.'
'Dad...'
I'm sorry, Mom.
I can't bear my life if I don't do this.
Mom, it's terrible!
What is it, Young-eun?
What terrible thing is there left to happen?
Look at this, Mom.
What is this?
Young-eun, I can't live without Na-ri.
I'll leave Mom in your hands until I find a way to bring Na-ri back.
What is this? She's going to bring Na-ri back?
You think she went to Park Jung-woo's house?
What? She did what?
Mommy.
Na-ri.
- Jung-hee, how've you been? - Ga-eun.
Were you eating breakfast? Did you eat a lot?
Your face is brighter and you look better.
Na-ri, don't worry. I'm going to live here with you.
Are you disregarding everything I said to you?
How dare you come crawling back here?
We need to talk.
Na-ri, I'll play with you after I talk to your father.
Go finish breakfast.
Goodness, what is going on? Is she moving back in?
Hurry up and say what you want.
What are you doing? How am I supposed to interpret this?
I'm going to move back in.
I have no choice since you won't let me have Na-ri.
I have to come back if I want to protect her.
What? You're moving back in?
So you'll continue being married to me?
Does the idea scare you? Why so surprised?
You're the one regulating me since I'm still your wife.
Must you go so far?
So far? You and Mi-ran forced my hand.
You two humiliated me and pained me!
Don't do this, Ga-eun.
Na-ri wants me and I want her.
Who are you to keep us apart?
- Yoo Ga-eun. - Just try to take her away from me.
I can do anything. I can do much worse than this.
Having to tolerate your repulsive face? I can do it ten times over.
Yeah?
Did Ha Jae-bum break up with you already after I warned him?
What?
Are you using Na-ri as an excuse to come back since he won't accept you?
Fine. Since you're so sly you've hit the bull's eye.
What are you going to do about it?
Then get out this instant. This is bad for Na-ri's education.
Since when do you care about her education so much?
Whatever you say, this is my house.
I have no intention of leaving or signing any divorce papers.
Yoo Ga-eun.
You should've given me Na-ri and lived with Mi-ran when you had the chance.
You're the one who screwed yourself.
Don't even think of blaming me.
What are you going to do?
Are you two divorcing or not? Make that clear.
I had no idea Ga-eun would do something like this.
I don't know what to do.
The tramp says Ga-eun's already with another guy. Is that true?
Oh-oh-oh, so it is true.
This is why they say you never really know a person.
What's going on?
I'm not sure yet.
Please take care of this. I have to get to work.
Alright, go to work.
What do I do about this?
Na-ri, I'll take you to the hospital today.
Na-ri, shall we do our secret sign?
I love you.
Let's see if you still remember.
Love you.
Na-ri, what did you say? Say it again.
Mommy, I love you.
Na-ri. Na-ri.
Everything's okay now.
You're talking now. You're all better.
What?
Mother, Na-ri is speaking again.
Is that true? Na-ri, say something.
Grandma, I love Mommy.
Oh goodness, goodness. You did so well.
That's my baby.
Let me look at you.
You're the cure-all for Na-ri's problems.
Na-ri.
Ga-eun.
Mom..
