(Episode 88)
Mother, what are you doing here?
Yeon Su.
Did you have a child?
Sorry?
Did you give birth in the past?
Tell me.
Is that Min Ah?
Is that child Min Ah?
Your doctor told me everything.
She told me that you have given birth in the past.
That photo...
It was taken seven years ago.
It must be...
an ultrasound photo of your baby, not your friend's baby.
No, Mother.
Shut your mouth. Don't call me "Mother".
How...
How dare you hide something like that and marry my son?
Don't even call yourself human.
Say something. Speak!
Mother!
Mother.
So where is the child?
You really got the wrong idea. I don't have a child.
Do you think I'm an idiot?
Shall I bring the doctor here so you can talk to her?
Let me ask you again.
Where is the child?
Don't tell me that the child is dead.
I'll find her at all costs.
I gave her up for adoption.
- Adoption? - Yes.
She was sent abroad for adoption.
Then what about the father?
Where is the father?
He was...
He died in an accident.
Listen.
I will make my son divorce you at once.
Mother.
- Please forgive me. - Forgive you?
Do you think what you did can be forgiven?
My son fell victim to such a horrible marriage.
I can't just sit back and do nothing.
Then I won't keep quiet either.
What? You won't keep quiet?
I'll tell everyone who Min Hyuk's biological father is.
What did you say?
How dare you!
Mother, don't tell anyone. Please?
Please make sure Min Hyuk and Father won't find out.
Hands off! How dare you touch me with those filthy hands?
Do you actually have the right to treat me like this?
What?
You fooled Father...
and made him believe that Mr. Park's son is his child.
You're as bad as I am.
Actually, no. You're worse than me.
You...
You evil witch!
Mother!
Grandma, are you not feeling well?
I'm okay.
Mother, are you really all right?
Yes, I'm fine.
Dad, I heard you visited Mr. Park earlier today.
Yes, I did.
I'm sure he didn't do it intentionally.
Do you know something?
About the arson case.
Did you...
tell him to do it?
What?
Of course not.
Then why did he do something like that?
I have no idea either.
What did Mr. Park say?
He said he did it because of his grudge against the factory owner.
But I don't buy that.
He'd never do something like that on the spur of the moment.
I'm sure he had a reason.
Dad.
I heard he had a son around my age. Did you know?
What? A son?
You didn't know?
This is my first time hearing about it.
I heard his son...
died at a young age.
You fooled Father...
and made him believe that Mr. Park's son is his child.
You're as bad as I am.
Actually, no. You're worse than me.
Grandma.
What is it?
You didn't have dinner, so I brought this for you.
I eat this when I don't have much of an appetite.
So?
You brought this for me?
Yes. Don't get sick, Grandma.
You're the only one who's worried about me.
Grandma, shall I feed you?
No, it's okay. I'll eat it later.
Let me take it.
Mother found out.
Gosh...
They turned out great, right?
These are amazing.
And her poses look so natural.
Did you say...
- Ha Eun wants to be a model? - Yes, sir.
I think she has the talent.
What has the consumer feedback been like so far?
Good. The word about our kids' line has spread amongst moms,
so the sales have been going up.
The fact that So Won has a kid actually worked to our advantage...
and has benefited us.
What? What do you mean?
People are focusing on Jae Hyuk's devoted love.
His unconditional love.
And thanks to it, the company's public image has greatly improved.
We should thank the person who wrote that article.
It worked out for the best.
(Director of Strategy Han Min Hyuk)
Darn it.
So I ended up helping Jae Hyuk?
What brings you here so early?
Hey, tell me the truth.
Who is Min Ah's mother?
What? "Min Ah's mother"?
Is she really Yeon Su's friend?
You came all the way here this early to ask me that?
I don't know who that is.
I bet you're in on this too.
What are you talking about?
I bet Yeon Su was in a serious relationship...
and even had a child.
Who told you such nonsense?
How could you do this to me?
Yeon Su's ob-gyn told me that she's given birth in the past.
As for her, I'll just think she's crazy.
But you, of all people, should've told me.
How could you keep it from me?
Keep what from you? I really don't know anything about it.
You don't know? How is that possible?
You used to live with Yeon Su. How could you not know?
It's true that she used to be like a member of my family,
but she packed up and left one day.
How would I know what she's been up to?
So? Where's the kid now?
She said she sent the kid abroad for adoption,
and the father is dead.
But you know what? I'm not sure if I can believe her.
She lies about everything.
Are you sure you know nothing about it?
Yes, I don't know anything about this.
Hey, you'd better not bother my daughter about this.
So Won doesn't know anything about it either.
What?
She said that to Mother?
Yes. My mom said she kept playing dumb.
Thankfully, Ms. Jang doesn't know that Ha Eun is Min Ah.
She finally found out.
I know.
Ho Jin. When you get home, tell Mom she absolutely can't tell anyone.
She cannot blurt it out especially when she gets worked up.
She cannot tell anyone that Ha Eun is Min Ah.
Yes, of course.
Yeon Su isn't the only one who will be doomed if it's revealed.
All of us, including you and Ha Eun, will suffer.
Mother.
Divorce Min Hyuk immediately.
End things quietly and move out.
Mother, please don't be like this.
If you pretend to know nothing about it, I'll be so good to you.
Must I humiliate you in front of the entire family?
- Mother. - Divorce Min Hyuk.
I want you two to get a divorce immediately.
I can't divorce him. Never.
Then what?
You're going to be stubborn even though I know everything now?
Mother, you know how I am.
I will never go down alone.
Get out.
Mother.
Get out. Get out at once. I said, get out!
Yes, this is all your fault.
What was that about? Why did you drop it?
I'm sorry.
You need to be punished for what you did. Reflect on it.
Aunt Yeon Su.
Mom, you really have to make sure you keep your lips sealed.
Ms. Jang will go bonkers if she finds out that Ha Eun is Min Ah.
- The same goes for Yeon Su. - I know that.
I feel like I've been so worried every day since So Won got married.
Even I am this anxious. So Won must be under a lot of stress.
I know. She must be stressed out.
But she has Jae Hyuk, so don't worry too much.
You're right. Jae Hyuk is the most amazing husband.
The problem is that Yeon Su lives with them.
In any case, you really have to be careful, Mom.
Okay, I heard you.
Where's Ha Eun? I can't find her anywhere.
I guess she stepped out.
You were supposed to be looking after her.
Ha Eun!
Mom.
- My gosh. - Mom.
What happened? Why are you out here?
Mom.
Ha Eun, go to your room.
Okay.
Yeon Su, did you kick her out?
Answer me. Was it you?
I asked you if you kicked Ha Eun out earlier.
Why would I do such a thing?
Yeon Su, did you kick her out?
You're really unbelievable. Follow me.
Ha Eun.
Drink this. I brought you warm water. Come on.
Sit up.
Here.
Are you okay now? You're not cold?
No.
Well...
Ha Eun.
Did you do something wrong?
Yes, I spilled some cereal.
The other day, you gave her that salty fried rice.
And you even kicked her out to punish her?
Did you take your anger out on her because you can't do it to me?
- No, it's not that. - Don't lie to my face.
Right, you're utterly spiteful and ruthless.
That's why you could abandon your own child.
Mother.
Where's the child you abandoned?
Are you sure she was sent abroad for adoption?
I don't believe you.
Where is she? Where is that child?
"Child"? What child?
What are you talking about?
Yeon Su, what is this about?
We were talking about Ha Eun. We don't know where she went.
Yes, that's right.
Why does she keep causing trouble?
Hey.
Are you going to keep being so mean to Ha Eun?
How could you kick her out without a jacket to punish her?
What did she do so wrong?
She said she spilled some food.
Did you really have to kick her out for something like that?
Yes, she shouldn't have done that. I can't stand things like that.
You'd better discipline your kid.
Why are you so twisted?
You're such a loser for taking your anger out on a kid.
What are you talking about?
I was trying to discipline her because you never do.
Stop spewing complete nonsense.
Mom.
Don't fight with Aunt Yeon Su.
It was my fault.
It's all because I spilled my food.
That happened today?
Yes, I was utterly speechless.
Yeon Su...
No, I don't even want to call her like that.
We need to stop her. How much meaner is she going to be to Ha Eun?
She's obviously being like this because she's anxious...
now that Mother's found out about her child.
But Ha Eun is...
What about her?
Ha Eun's been acting a little strange.
Yeon Su is so mean to her, but she tries to protect her.
She's very kindhearted and mature, you know.
But...
it hurts my feelings a little.
Is it because blood is thicker than water?
I keep thinking that.
All right.
Ha Eun, look at this delicious strawberry. Try it.
Mom, why do you seem so down?
Are you not feeling well?
I'm fine.
Ha Eun, I saw the photos.
I think you can actualize your dream of becoming a famous model.
By the way, I heard Aunt Yeon Su also wanted to be a model.
Not everyone can be a model. You have to be very tall.
Ha Eun, you'll have to be over 180cm tall.
She's taller than other kids her age.
But her mom isn't tall. I guess her dad is tall.
Goodness, you didn't have to say that.
I'll get going, then.
Get home safely.
My gosh, thank you. You're so polite.
The more I see her, the more I think that she looks like Ms. Hwang.
What kind of nonsense is that? Why would she look like me?
Hold on, let me see. Now that I've heard that,
I feel like I see some resemblance.
And you're both allergic to peanuts. What a coincidence.
Yeon Su, you're allergic to peanuts?
You too?
Yes.
I need to do something.
If it's revealed, I'll be finished.
Ha Eun, I heard you're going on a field trip to the fire station.
Yes, I'll meet real firefighters.
You sound so excited, Ha Eun.
You'll get to see many fire trucks, which you love.
Yes, we'll learn to use fire extinguishers too.
Be safe though. And listen to your teacher at all times.
I will. Don't worry.
All right. Then let's get going.
(Sarang Daycare Center, Choi Ha Eun)
Are you sure you can do that without anyone finding out?
There should be no record of it.
Is Ms. Hwang not here?
She stepped out for a meeting.
She stepped out for a meeting? Out of the blue?
Without telling me where she was going?
Oh, right.
So Won, what do you think of this scarf? It's new.
It's nice. Scarves look so great on you.
I love wearing scarves.
Oh, right.
The scarf I brought to you. Is that Ms. Hwang's?
Sorry?
She looked so surprised when she saw it.
Yeon Su saw that scarf?
Yes, a few times.
Well, Ms. Han.
By any chance, did you tell her that scarf is mine?
Yes, I did tell her.
Why?
This isn't the one.
This isn't the toothbrush I bought for Ha Eun.
Does this mean Yeon Su knows?
Hi, Ha Eun.
Mom, I left my name tag at home.
What do I do?
Your name tag?
Oh, that. Where did you put it?
On your desk?
Okay.
I'll bring it to you now.
- They already left? - Yes.
- Where is it, exactly? - I'll give you the address.
Thank you.
I'm just wondering... Has anyone other than me and my mother...
visited the daycare center to see Ha Eun?
Oh, her aunt came by the other day.
Her aunt?
Yes, Seung Cheol said he saw her.
You've all seen a two-liter water bottle, right?
- Yes. - Yes.
You can think that each fire truck has...
5,000 of those bottles.
Now, you'll get in the truck and...
Kiddo.
- Are you Ha Eun? - Yes.
Your mom's name is Choi So Won, right?
How do you know that?
And Mr. Get Out is your dad.
Yes.
Ha Eun is not your biological child? Then who's her mother?
What on earth are you talking about?
I heard what Ha Eun said earlier.
My gosh...
Ma'am, Ha Eun is missing?
Yes. All of a sudden, I couldn't find her. I was about to call you.
Gosh, where did she go?
Her phone is off.
I told all the kids to keep their phones off during the field trip.
Well...
Seung Cheol told me that he saw Ha Eun talking with a man earlier.
A man?
(Vice President Han Jae Hyuk)
Hi, So Won.
What do we do?
What happened?
Ha Eun is gone.
What do you mean?
Wasn't she going on a field trip to the fire station today?
Apparently, a man took her.
I can't even reach her by phone. What should we do?
Where are you now?
Mister, where are my parents?
They're over there.
Mister, my tummy is hurting.
I need to go to the restroom.
(Storage)
Look.
If you press number one,
I'll answer.
(Ha Eun)
Call me whenever you miss me, okay?
Okay.
(Uncle Ho Jin)
(Legal Manager Choi Ho Jin)
Hey, So Won.
What? Ha Eun is missing?
What do you mean?
Okay, I'll look for her too.
(Ha Eun)
- Ha Eun! - Uncle Ho Jin.
Ha Eun, where are you now?
Uncle Ho Jin, a suspicious-looking man...
brought me here.
Ha Eun, do you know where you are now?
No, I'm not sure.
Ha Eun. Ha Eun!
Ha Eun, please... Where are you?
Why isn't she picking up?
Hey, Ho Jin.
Hey, I just checked the security footage.
She's caught on the footage with some guy.
Really? So can you find her?
I'm trying to track down which route they took.
It looks like they went to the harbor nearby.
I'll head there now. Meet me there.
- I'll send you the route. - Okay.
Who took her there?
Gosh, please...
Please...
Hey, Jae Hyuk.
You spoke with Ho Jin, right? I'm on my way there too.
Ha Eun will be fine. Calm down and meet us there.
Okay, I'll see you there.
Aunt Yeon Su!
- She'll be sent to the Philippines? - Yes.
Make sure she's sent to the residence I picked.
I'll pay the rest when I confirm that she's arrived safe and sound.
You know that no one can find out, right?
And video-call me so that I can see how she's doing.
Come on. I know the drill.
Don't you worry. Just make sure you send me the rest of the money.
I'll go aboard first.
Calm her down and make sure she comes aboard.
Aunt Yeon Su, where am I going?
Somewhere very nice.
Can I not go?
Just go, and your parents will meet you there very soon.
You're lying. I won't go.
Just go. You must. You should get going.
No, I don't want to go.
Mom! Mom!
Be quiet.
I told you that your parents will meet you there soon.
- Come on. - No, I won't go.
Aunt Yeon Su, please don't send me away.
Ha Eun.
You're a good girl.
I know...
how kind and sweet you are.
That's why...
you don't hate me, right?
So...
just do as I say. Please?
No, I don't want to go there.
You must go.
No, I don't want to go.
Aunt Yeon Su, please don't abandon me.
Hwang Yeon Su!
(Bad Love)
- How could you! - My life is a mess because of...
- How could you do that? - you, Ho Jin, and your mom.
I can't believe you did this to your own child.
Do you even have a heart?
Then what? If they find out, I'll be finished.
Do you know what it's like to abandon your own child?
Shut your mouth!
- Where is the kid? - I told you. She's been adopted.
If you think I'm a joke, you'll regret it big-time.
You got out sooner than I had expected.
You're probably not happy about that.
I'm sure Tae Seok wants to pass the company down to Jae Hyuk.
- I can't let that happen. - Ma'am.
I know everything. This isn't the only crime you've committed.
I'll uncover the truth about everything.
