Episode 68
Do you have any other concerns?
Not at all.
If you have any problems,
please call me at this number.
We'll return to make any necessary repairs.
Thank you.
Then we'll see you in two months.
Okay.
Hang on.
Would you like to go get some tea?
Enjoy.
We never really get see each other like this,
so let me ask you a few things.
When will your divorce be finalized?
Hwayeong told me
about your divorce proceedings.
You need to end this soon
so that my daughter can find peace
and raise Jinwu properly.
Raise Jinwu?
Why would Hwayeong raise Jinwu?
You really don't know?
Hwayeong's his birthmother.
Don't say such shameless things.
I didn't think you were this kind of person.
Jinwu is my son.
Hwayeong is just his surrogate.
Couldn't you have at least
tried to stop Hwayeong?
Why? Why would I do that?
Why do you deserve mercy?
Was loving Donghyeon that big of a crime?
Did I deserve to have my father bankrupted,
and my mother killed from shock?
Do I really deserve
to have my only son taken away from me?
I truly loved Donghyeon.
I wanted to have a baby
and live happily with him.
Though that didn't happen,
it wasn't my fault.
Do you want me to follow him to the grave?
Or do you want me to
spend my whole life mourning him alone?
Would you have done the same thing?
If you feel that Donghyeon's untimely death
was my responsibility,
then I believe I've paid the price.
But the revenge Hwayeong speaks of
is now mine to take.
Tell me...
Tell me one more time.
What did Hwayeong do?
She bankrupted your father?
Then she became CEO because...
Yes.
She conned my father to steal his company.
Then she blackmailed him with photos
by sending them to my mother.
The shock made her...
If she's taking revenge
because she can't forgive me,
then I will take revenge on her as well.
Was it so wrong for me to love Donghyeon?
Did I deserve to have my mother die of shock?
Did my father deserve to be bankrupted?
Did he deserve to lose his position?
Do I really deserve to
one and only son taken from me?
Goodness.
How could Hwayeong do those things?
How will she ever atone for her sins?
Miranda.
You seem very unhappy lately.
Is something the matter?
No.
Not at all. Never.
It's break time,
but you don't even go to see the professor.
Don't bring him up.
He's like rotten rice.
Rotten rice?
Rags can be reused once they're washed,
but even if you wash rotten rice,
it'll make you sick.
In other words, he's no good.
Professor Oh
You still have his number though.
This is so I know not to pick up.
Ignore.
The recipient is unavailable...
What?
She won't pick up my generous call?
Have I become this pathetic?
The recipient is unavailable...
I'm home.
When did you get here?
Why are you back so soon?
What do you mean? The inspections are over.
But you were only gone for a day.
You are so shameless.
You know your mother did this to my face,
yet you want to move back in?
I'm sorry.
My mother said to apologize.
She misread the situation and...
Misread what?
She's a lowlife and she acted like one.
I heard you said that about me as well.
What?
You called me a lowlife and a dog.
And yet, this dog gave birth to Jinwu.
And Byeongguk is in love with a dog like me.
What does that make you, his mother?
Doesn't that make us one and the same?
How... How dare you?
What makes you so great?
What gives you the right
to disrespect my mother?
Whenever you cut her down
does it give you a sense of superiority?
Don't you know you're
only insulting yourself?
When I marry your son,
my mother will be your in-law.
Where is this confidence coming from?
You aren't as clever as you think.
You think I'll just let you marry Byeongguk?
You should be begging me for forgiveness,
but instead you threaten me?
I'm not threatening you. I'm...
That wasn't a threat?
Don't underestimate Byeongguk.
He loves his women,
but he's very obedient to me.
You still don't get it?
Over the years, I forced him to break up
with countless other women.
You don't think I could get rid of you?
I've been far too lenient with you.
You have two options.
Either force your mother to apologize to me,
or break all ties with Jinwu and Byeongguk
right here and right now.
Can't do it?
Should I call the cops?
You're here without my permission.
You're trespassing. Got it?
I'll apologize in her stead.
Bring your mother here right now!
Bring her friend along too.
In all my days working here, that's the best
thing Ms. Gwak has ever said.
I'm glad she told her off like that.
Ow...
Hey, are you sleeping?
Ssangsun, can I ask you something?
Am I really that awful?
Yeah.
Why did I even ask?
What is it this time?
Did somebody say something to you?
Tell me who it is.
I'll grind them into powder with my fists.
I'm talking about Hwayeong.
Yeah?
Who did she take after to become so cruel?
Why'd you come back?
I thought you moved back into that house.
Get dressed and come with me.
Where to?
Ms. Lee, you get dressed, too.
Tell us where we're going first.
To beg for forgiveness.
What?
Why should I be the one to apologize?
Yeah! Have you lost your mind?
Mom.
Do you know what my main priority is?
Being Jinwu's mom.
But because of you and Ms. Lee,
I've been kicked out.
What's so bad about that?
Then move back home.
Why should I beg that hag for forgiveness?
She treats us like dirt.
Let's go, mom.
One day, I'll make sure she pays
for treating us like dirt. I will.
But now's not the time.
So for now, let's swallow our pride.
Once I become Jinwu's mom,
I'll make her pay. I will.
Hwayeong!
I have to marry Byeongguk. Once I do,
I'll not only have Jinwu but all their wealth.
Don't you get it?
If you just do this for me,
I can have it all and succeed.
Hwayeong!
Why do you have to live like this?
Why do you do these things?
I heard you tricked Yeonhui's father,
bankrupted him and stole his company.
You're also responsible
for her mother's death.
Says who?
Where did you hear such nonsense?
I'm not an idiot.
Hwayeong, please don't do this.
Please just stop!
Please just do as I say. Please!
Please, mom.
Don't you think it'd look great
on your father?
What? Yeah.
I'd like this one, please.
I'll get it.
Use my card.
It's fine. I wanted to buy him a gift.
Use this one.
Wait.
I'd like these as well.
This is for you
and this is for Yeonhui.
She'll look pretty in it, don't you think?
This is a bribe, isn't it?
Yeah, fine.
Do you know where I stand now?
I thought you were on Hwayeong's side.
Is that what you think of me?
- Here you go. / - Thanks.
- Have a nice day. / - Thank you.
- Want to eat something? / - Sure.
Huh?
Attorney Lee.
Junhui.
This looks so delicious.
I was starving.
Let's eat.
It's really good.
Do you like it?
Free food is the best food.
Come on, Mr. Lee.
This is a famous restaurant.
No wonder.
How's Hwayeong doing lately?
I don't mean to be rude,
but has she been acting strangely lately?
She made a fake bank account
in order to start a slush fund.
A slush fund?
That's embezzlement.
That's a very unethical thing for a CEO to do.
She should be punished by the law.
Seongbin, be careful.
She might drag you down with her.
I'm really worried.
When your father lost the company,
I couldn't do a thing.
I want to do whatever I can do to help.
Oh, right.
How are things going with Jinwu?
Do you think you'll win custody?
We're going to win.
I'm a pretty strong guy.
That's why I'm Tarzan.
First of all,
we need someone to verify
Byeongguk and Hwayeong's relationship.
Do you have anyone in mind?
We desperately need to find proof.
Do you have any photos
that verify their relationship?
Or do you have any voice recordings?
Anything of that nature?
Man...
Even though there's nothing going on
between you and Mr. Yu,
Hwayeong still took photos.
Why don't you have any recordings?
The opposing lawyer said that they'd submit
pictures of Seongbin and me as evidence.
If that holds up in court,
what do we do?
Are the photos suggestive?
Were you kissing or embracing?
If that's not the case,
those pictures won't hold up in court.
Don't worry about that.
If you can find a piece of evidence
that verifies Byeongguk
and Hwayeong's relationship...
Hold on. What about the housekeeper?
Oh, right!
Try asking her.
She might be opposed at first,
but you may be able to persuade her.
No. You have to persuade her.
Okay.
Jinwu's coming tomorrow, right?
When I asked my mother to come,
she said she was already on her way.
I'm sorry.
I should've listened to Hwayeong
before I decided to act.
Dimwitted people tend to act in haste.
Why aren't you saying anything?
I'm sorry, President Gwak.
This is the hospital report
and this is a report for assault.
- What? / - What?
I haven't pressed charges yet.
My next move depends on how you act.
I may not be pressing charges now,
but what happened is truly inconceivable.
I, a CEO, was assaulted by her janitors.
Truly inconceivable.
We're really sorry about what happened.
I'm just such a hothead sometimes,
there's no need to go and press charges.
I'm very sorry.
Ma'am! Ma'am?
Yes, Ms. Gwak?
Let them apologize to you.
I'm fine, Ms. Gwak. You should...
Do I look like I deal with *** like them?
Whether you make them bow or beg,
it's in your hands.
Mother...
Have you forgotten?
Do you have dementia?
I told you not to call me that!
Your dimwitted mother
is sitting right here.
You crazy hag!
What did you say?
Let's go, Ssangsun.
Fine. Sue me!
I'll gladly go to prison. Sue me.
You think being a CEO makes you great?
That's right. To pay for my daughter's sins
I came here to apologize.
I came for my daughter's sake!
But what?
You crazy fool.
You actually want to live here?
Are you out of your mind?
Pack your bags right now!
I knew that this crazy hag was rude,
but I had no idea she was a total lunatic!
Hey! Look at me while I'm talking to you.
Because of people like you,
our country's economy is in the dumps.
Got it?
Come on.
Mom.
Don't even pretend to know me.
You're no daughter of mine.
You old bat! Open your eyes!
You need to save the economy!
Like mother, like daughter.
Low-class ***.
Bae Chuja!
You were amazing back there.
That felt so good. I feel like I'm flying.
Great job, Bae Chuja.
Let her sue us!
I don't mind going to jail!
I hear prison food is pretty good!
Bring it on, you crazy hag!
Chuja.
Chuja, what's wrong?
Chuja.
Don't cry.
You crazy fool.
You actually want to live here?
Are you out of your mind?
Pack your bags right now!
Like mother, like daughter.
Low-class ***.
Jinwu, my darling son.
All I need is you.
As long as I have you,
I can endure anything.
I love you, my son.
Ms. Jeong.
I need to talk to you
about this week's supplies.
Yes. Go on.
It's about the onions.
We both promised each other
that no matter what storms may come,
we'd put everything else aside,
and think only of each other.
I know my sister went to your house.
I heard the news.
You're frustrated and upset.
Everything's getting on your nerves.
I totally get that.
But let's go back to thinking about us.
Do you think
we'll actually ever get married?
No. Even if we did marry,
could we ignore all our family issues,
and live happily?
Why not? We can do it.
I'm doubtful.
As time goes on,
I'm getting more and more doubtful.
Be honest with me.
Are you over me?
Are you sick of me?
Do you think I'm not at your level?
If that's the case,
I'd be happy to let you go.
But if that's not the case...
To be honest...
I wanted to propose to you properly.
Whatever the case, I prepared this for you.
If you want to break up with me,
then just leave this here tomorrow.
I will take it back.
Welcome.
Hey, Suk.
Giseop, do you have any alcohol?
You can't ask for alcohol at a coffee shop.
If you want to drink, find a bar.
What's wrong?
Don't you have a date with Chef Bae?
Giseop.
I think I'll have to break up with Chansik.
What?
I'm really happy to hear that!
Hey dork! How can you say that?
You're breaking up with the guy
who stole away the only girl I've ever loved.
Of course I'm happy.
Hey, but what's with the ring?
Oh.
I have to go.
Hey.
Sit down, Suk.
I don't have any customers anyway.
I'll just close up the shop,
and we'll drink until we can't walk.
Michael.
Why are you still here?
Miranda, do you have any plans for the night?
No.
Then have a drink with me.
I feel very lonely tonight.
Loneliness and I
are super close friends.
When I think about it clearly,
love is a really cruel thing.
It's a torturous ordeal.
It lifts you up and tears you down repeatedly.
Are you and Ms. Jeong having problems?
Are things going well with Professor Oh?
If you asked me what love is,
I'd tell you it is the seed of all tears
You came to me so suddenly...
Cutie pie, Jeong Jinsuk.
You'd be betraying him, silly.
You promised to only think of each other.
Even if the whole world is against you,
all that matters is your love.
What are you so afraid of?
You only live once.
If you want to live with who you love,
who can stop you?
Hey, dork!
You don't understand, so hush!
Love may be important,
but if circumstances tear the love apart...
How do we endure that kind of pain?
I've been through a divorce, so I know.
That pain is very brief.
What else is there to life?
You're in charge of your life.
Live the way you want to live.
Cheer up!
Cheers!
Come on.
Giseop, I...
I'm so cold.
It's not even windy. How are you cold?
Careful.
Suk, Suk!
It must be because your heart feels cold.
I hate it when men say goodbye
You hardly drank anything.
Why can't you walk straight?
Chansik!
May I link arms with you?
Hurry up.
Wow!
Careful. Careful...
What the...
- Professor! / - Ow! That stings!
You jerk!
Ow! It stings!
Please stop!
I'm home.
Welcome home. Did you have dinner?
Yes. Where's Jinwu?
In his room, I presume.
Mother.
Please take good care of Jinwu.
He doesn't even have his mother.
Why?
Does it seem like I don't take care of him?
Well,
I never have the chance to take care of him.
Hwayeong's practically glued to him.
Go upstairs.
See if she's brainwashing him again.
The little groundhog
peeped his head through the hole
to see if the sun was up yet.
And then, something strange happened.
Jinwu.
- Dad! / - Jinwu.
Welcome home.
Did you pack Jinwu's things?
Pack? For what?
He's visiting Yeonhui tomorrow.
He's only going for a day, so pack lightly.
Jinwu.
You're meeting your mom tomorrow.
Did you know?
Jinwu won't want to go.
Right, Jinwu?
Come here. Give him here.
Okay.
I'm going to go change.
Jinwu.
If you go, I'll miss you so much.
Even if it's only one day, it'll kill me.
Even if you don't want to go, be patient.
You'll get to live with me soon enough.
Okay?
Answer me, now.
Okay.
What time tomorrow?
Ten.
I'll take him there.
Don't worry. I know you're busy.
So you can fight with Yeonhui again?
Honey, Jinwu will be there.
I won't do things like that anymore
for Jinwu's sake.
I'm so tired of hearing about fights.
I can't believe what your mother did.
Just thinking about it gives me a headache.
My mom already hates that we're together.
What did you tell your mom
to make her come here and do that?
I'm sorry.
Still, my mom came by today
and apologized to your mother.
Don't worry about that anymore.
Once the trial's over,
we can get married, take Jinwu
and live happily ever after.
Let's just be a little more patient.
Yeonhui, how can I help you?
Hold on.
Why do you look so surprised?
We're out of aspirin aren't we?
Go buy some more.
Yes, ma'am.
Weren't you just on the phone?
What? Yes.
I can't talk right now.
Okay.
You never talk on the phone.
Who was that?
A friend.
If Yeonhui ever calls...
She would never!
Why're you getting so flustered?
If she calls, don't let her talk to Jinwu.
- Got it? / - Yes, ma'am.
This is Yeonhui.
Please call me when you have time.
I need to ask you something.
What's taking you so long?
Go to the store!
Yes, Ms. Gwak!
If she finds out about this, I'm dead meat.
She has to call me back.
Sangmok Children's Welfare Center
I'm sorry,
but unless you're a part of the family,
we can't reveal our adoption records.
Where did you hide him, Hwayeong?
Your friend said you gave birth!
This is Choi Sangdu.
Have you found the child's whereabouts?
No.
It's hard to locate him
with just the mother's name.
You may have to wait a while.
Okay. Please keep looking.
Jinwu.
We're going to see your mom now.
Do you want to see her?
Be honest.
Do you want to go see her?
Her house is way shabbier than ours
and it doesn't have toys or good food.
Is that okay with you?
Great.
Then don't go.
Instead, let's get something good to eat.
We can go buy some new toys
and then go to the playground.
How's that sound?
Let's go.
Sir, the meeting's about to start.
Okay.
My Dear Wife
The recipient is unavailable...
Hello? Byeongguk?
It's me.
Don't wait for Jinwu. He's not coming.
What'd you say?
He says he doesn't want to go
and he doesn't want to see you.
