(The Final Episode)
You woke up.
Are you all right?
Where am I?
The hospital.
Do you remember what happened?
You shouldn't move around.
You nearly died. Do you realize that?
Why did you save me?
What?
Why did you save me?
You should've just let me die. Why bother saving me?
Because you wanted to see me in this mess?
Then what?
Did you think you could end everything by dying?
You must live.
Live a long life so that you can pay for everything you did.
You see,
I'll never abandon you...
and let you die like Director Park.
Being exonerated through death?
I will not let that happen.
What...
What did you just say?
Director Park died?
He had stage four cancer.
He refused treatment and neglected his condition,
so there was nothing the doctor could do.
Min Hyuk.
My precious son...
I can't believe you're in this mess.
I'm sorry.
It's all my fault.
You ended up like this because of my greed.
Don't cry, Mom. I'm okay.
I know that you're not okay.
Mom.
I actually feel better now that I'm here.
I feel like I can finally breathe.
Uncle Sang Tae must be resting in peace now, right?
I used to call him like that when I was little. Uncle Sang Tae.
I regret it so much.
Not calling him Dad even once...
before he passed away.
Min Hyuk.
Mom, what happened to Yeon Su?
She...
While running away,
she fell off a cliff.
What?
She suffered serious injuries.
But thankfully, she'll live.
Min Hyuk.
Why did we end up like this?
How could you do such a thing?
Eun Hye was pregnant at the time.
She was collapsed on that cold road.
How could you record a video of it and use it to blackmail them?
Answer me.
Why did you do that?
How could you even think to do such a thing?
That wasn't my intention.
I thought she'd be taken to a hospital,
- but... - Even if you found out later...
Even if it was later,
you should've told the truth...
that you had found out.
How...
How could you try to strike a deal using Eun Hye's life?
Do you even have a heart?
The ones who caused the accident and abandoned her are at fault.
I didn't do anything wrong.
How could you say that?
She's my sister.
She's my family, okay?
And you also lived with her for years after the age of seven.
Whenever we had delicious treats, she gave them to you first.
And when you were ill, she stayed up all night...
to look after you. Eun Hye had a heart of gold.
You're no different from those people.
You're also...
just a murderer after all.
Stop spewing total nonsense.
I ended up like this...
because of your mom.
She treated me like dirt, and she's paying for it now!
Yeon Su.
You...
How could you...
How could you still be like this?
Your husband repented of everything he did and turned himself in.
How could you?
(A few months later)
The defendant violated...
the Act on the Additional Punishment of Specific Crimes,
and he is also guilty of deliberate destruction of property,
obstruction of business, bribery, and blackmailing.
The defendant should rightfully be punished.
Ergo, the court...
sentences the defendant to 15 years in prison.
Min Hyuk!
Min Hyuk.
How's your health?
Is everything okay?
Tell me if there's anything you need.
I'll be more than happy to...
Min Hyuk.
Min Hyuk, why are you being like this?
The defendant is guilty of attempted murder, violation...
of the Unfair Competition Prevention and Trade Secret Protection Act,
extortion, blackmailing,
and violation of the Child Welfare Act.
The defendant committed all of the aforementioned crimes...
for her selfish gains...
without any remorse.
Ergo, the court sentences Defendant Hwang Yeon Su...
to 10 years in prison.
That spiteful wench did all sorts of horrible things,
and now she'll end up wasting her youth in prison.
Come to think of it, I'm hugely responsible...
for the mess Yeon Su is in now.
Had I not been so mean to her when she brought her baby,
she wouldn't have turned out like that.
Mom.
I only cared about my own children.
I didn't care at all about how hurt she'd be.
After all, she's the mother of my grandkid.
I should've been more affectionate toward her.
It's all my fault.
It's pointless to say that now.
Ho Jin is right, Mom. Stop beating yourself up.
Oh, right.
Is it true that Min Hyuk has been sent to a mental institution?
Min Hyuk...
misses you a lot.
Min Hyuk.
Dad.
Yes, hi.
Son, how have you been?
You just got back from your work trip?
Oh, right. Yes.
Dad, I did very well on the exam.
Not as well as Jae Hyuk did,
but I studied very hard.
I see. Good job, son.
You complimented me.
You silly goose.
Your husband has been transferred to a mental institution.
Congratulations, our team manager.
- Congratulations. - Congratulations.
Thank you, everyone.
You started out as a part-timer and became a team manager.
Do you know that others at Noyu call you a legend?
Cut it out. Stop flattering me so much.
Ms. Ko, congratulations on becoming our assistant design manager.
Gosh.
Thank you, our team manager.
Anyhow, I'm happy for Ms. Han that she got promoted...
to Director of Strategy,
but I'm so sad that she's leaving the team.
- Me too. - You guys know...
that you can't slack off even though I won't be around, right?
I'll be watching you.
- Of course. - Don't worry.
You don't even have to tell us.
All right, let's get ready for the meeting.
You know it's your first briefing as a team manager, right?
- Yes. - Can you do a good job?
Yes, of course.
(Chairman Han Jae Hyuk)
Come in.
Ho Jin.
Congratulations.
From now on, I should call you "Chairman Han Jae Hyuk".
Well...
(Letter of Resignation)
Why all of a sudden?
I think I accomplished everything I had set out to do at Noyu.
Please accept my letter of resignation.
(N-tex 365 Presentation)
(Skin-like Fabric, N-tex 365)
What you see here is...
functional outdoor apparel made with N-tex 365.
Its value came to be...
widely recognized in just a month after its launch.
Now, the line is sold at 50 stores all over the world,
in places such as Sydney, California,
Salisbury, Istanbul, and Boracay, to name a few.
This success wouldn't have been possible without everyone...
at our lab, who worked day and night,
the entire design team including Director Han Yu Jin,
and Mr. Yoon,
who gave us all the support we needed.
Let me tell you a little bit about the new project we're launching.
We plan to further improve N-tex 365...
through eco-friendly materials and all-natural dyeing.
We're calling this project "Eco 365".
A number of companies overseas have already placed orders,
and we plan to launch it immediately after...
conducting some tests upon getting the samples.
Director Park.
What's it like there?
Are you doing okay there?
(Park Sang Tae)
Director Park.
Sang Tae.
Because of everything I did,
Min Hyuk is very ill.
How am I supposed to go on with my life?
I can't even die because of Min Hyuk.
Ha Eun, are you ready?
Dad, you cannot let it go. Okay?
All right. I'll hold on to you, so don't worry.
Keep your hands on the handlebars and look ahead.
- Start pedaling, and it'll move. - Okay.
- All right, let's go. - It's moving!
My gosh, you're good.
Dad, you're holding the bike, right?
Yes, of course.
Ha Eun, you're so good.
Mom! Uncle Ho Jin! Aren't I so good at this?
Ha Eun is picking it up so quickly.
Right?
So Won, I heard you guys will take Ha Eun tomorrow.
Yes, my father-in-law misses her so much.
You must be sad.
Yes, I am. It's okay though.
Ha Eun looks happiest when she's with you and Jae Hyuk.
So Won, I'm...
happy with how things are now.
I'm fine with living as Ha Eun's uncle forever.
Yu Jin said a while ago...
that I should make a decision...
that will hurt Ha Eun less, whatever that may be.
Ho Jin.
Ha Eun wrote this letter for Yeon Su.
I told her that Yeon Su is far away on a business trip.
I came to give you something.
Ha Eun wrote you this letter.
I heard you went to see her before heading to the villa.
You must've found out that day.
The fact that she knew all along that you're her mom.
From now on, live a decent life for Ha Eun's sake.
From time to time,
I wonder...
what would've happened had I never left you.
Your mother would've ignored and treated me like dirt,
and I would've been so miserable.
I would've had to serve my prosecutor husband...
while looking after our child all by myself.
It would've been one pathetic life.
What are you trying to say?
I'm trying to tell you that I do not regret...
choosing Han Min Hyuk over you.
Even if I could go back to that point in time,
I'd still leave you.
So...
you'd better not expect me to apologize.
Never.
You haven't changed one bit.
All right, don't apologize to me.
However,
you should apologize to Ha Eun, for the rest of your life.
Is there anything fun to do?
Hey, stop. Enough.
Goodness. Gosh, that hurts.
Aunt Yeon Su, how's everything with you?
I'm doing well.
I had pizza with Uncle Ho Jin yesterday.
I thought of you while eating pizza.
Let's go for pizza together later on.
I can eat button mushrooms now.
And I can even ride a bike well now.
Dad taught me.
Aunt Yeon Su, take good care of yourself.
Stay healthy.
From Ha Eun.
(Choi Eun Hye, May 8, 1985 to November 6, 2014)
Eun Hye.
We've finally uncovered the truth we were after for so long.
Eun Hye, rest in peace now.
I'm sorry, and I love you.
Eun Hye, I know it took so long.
I'm sorry.
Now, forget everything and rest in peace.
Let me have a look at you, son.
You look extra handsome today.
Son.
Don't do this again, okay?
But...
why do you keep calling me "son"?
Hi, Jae Hyuk.
You're still here?
I can't live without Min Hyuk, you know.
What happened to his wrist?
He hurt himself again.
While I stepped out for a few minutes.
Min Hyuk.
Min Hyuk, it's me, your brother. How have you been?
You're not my brother.
Jae Hyuk is studying abroad at the moment.
I finished my studies and came back to Korea.
No, you're not my brother.
Min Hyuk, he is your brother. He's Jae Hyuk.
No, he's not.
Min Hyuk.
I'm sorry for not visiting you often.
Make sure you take your medications on time and stay healthy.
And don't hurt yourself like this, okay?
I bought a few things that I thought he might need.
I'll be off, then.
Jae Hyuk.
Visit me again.
All right.
Let's see. I'll do this.
My gosh. You're so good, Grandpa.
- You're the best. - Right?
Have a seat.
I have something to tell you. That's why I asked you to come by.
I heard about your son.
I'm sorry, sir.
But it was something that I had to do.
I'm aware.
I know he's my son, but he should pay for what he did.
I owe an apology to you and your family.
I apologize...
on my son's behalf.
You see, about Ha Eun... I heard everything.
I heard that you're...
her biological father.
I'm sorry, sir.
I don't know what to say.
Jae Hyuk told me what happened.
I'm not trying to berate you for that.
After all, blood is thicker than water.
You can't sever such ties.
If you ever want to see Ha Eun, feel free to come by anytime.
I'm totally fine with it.
That's what I wanted to tell you.
Thank you.
Thank you, sir.
(The 2020 Korea Textile Industry Award)
First off, congratulations.
You joined Noyu as a part-timer,
but you now manage the design team,
and you're also the company's fabric development expert.
And because of all your contributions to the industry,
you received the Minister's Award.
What's your secret to such a successful career?
I'd say it's not having tomorrow.
Pardon me?
I've always lived as if today is the last day of my life.
Fiercely, as if tomorrow won't come.
That led me to live tomorrow that was better than today.
And little by little, my hard work brought me to where I am today.
I see.
Your philosophy does set you apart from others.
But the thing is,
my real secret to success is actually something else.
It's my husband, Chairman Han Jae Hyuk.
He always encourages me...
and makes a nobody like me feel as if...
I'm the most important person in the whole world.
I owe this honor to him.
Were you trying to get me choked with emotion?
It's true, you know.
You made me the happiest man on earth today.
I'll make you even happier from now on.
That sounds familiar.
We have to go somewhere today.
Let's work hard to launch Eco 365.
Shall we?
What is love?
Mr. Choi!
What is all this?
What is it?
Mr. Choi.
If you wish to take it off, do it now.
If you keep it on, I'll take that as a yes.
I love you.
To some,
love means warmth rather than passion.
And to some,
love means affection built over many years.
And to some,
love means a sense of longing that even regrets can't shake off.
Pull it more.
It's done.
Finished.
- Gosh, that hurt. - To me, love means...
holding each other's hands when falling...
and dusting off each other's clothes when soiled.
Just sharing ordinary moments like that.
Walking into that person's life...
and embracing everything about that person.
Understanding that person's pains and scars...
and enduring difficult times together.
Turning the fear of an unknown future into excitement.
A love like that...
is right before my eyes now.
We should get some work done.
And that's why I love, even today.
Because life goes on no matter what,
and we must endure today.
Even when you feel like it's the end,
an unknown future awaits you.
The strength that helps you get through each day.
That's...
love.
(Thank you for watching Bad Love.)
