(Episode 89)

Honey... Honey, it's you.

You're Ji Eun's father.

How are you still alive?

Does she know me?

What happened to you?

What's going on?

I swear I saw it.

My husband's finger moved a little.

He's in a coma,
so that's not possible.

I haven't seen him react
to any sound or light.

Your wife is beautiful.

You're so kind to each other.
It's like you're newlyweds.

We are newlyweds.

We recently got remarried.

Congratulations.

You and Mr. Kim also have
a special relationship, don't you?

You don't look married but...

Gosh, I'm sorry
if I crossed the line.

He was my first love.

I met him again
when he was brought...

to a hospital 10 years ago.

I was his nurse.

You must've been destined
to meet each other.

He was in a very bad state.
It was a really bad accident.

I think I heard someone say this.

But is it true
that Mr. Kim woke up...

after eight years of having been
in a coma?

It's medically hard to explain
how it was possible,

but there are patients who wake up
from comas every now and then.

Yes, I remember reading about
this patient...

who woke up after 27 years.

Mr. Kim had no hope back then.
So his ventilator...

(Central Operating Room)

We can easily forge a doctor's note.

He seems hopeless.
We should remove the ventilator.

If my brother-in-law wakes up,

I'll be the one having a funeral.

He won't forgive me this time for
the money I took from the company.

Of course,
I'm not going to tell my sister.

They may have fought like crazy,
but they had three kids together.

She won't forgive me
if she finds out.

Who are you?

Did you take my husband
from the hospital?

Yes.

I brought him here to save his life.

What's that supposed to mean?

Did someone try to kill him?

Tell me exactly what happened.

Your brother.

Your brother tried to kill him.

I overheard his horrible plan.

Your brother didn't want him
to wake up.

So he brought
a forged consent form...

saying the family doesn't want him
to be on life support.

We never removed his ventilator.

You told us he had a heart attack
and died.

That was the only way to save him.

I clearly remember
what you said back then.

You said you'd rather
have him dead...

than to see him stay in a coma.

I only said that
because I was upset.

Don't blame me.

You should begin...

by punishing your brother
for having done something like that.

I saved his life.

So you have no right
to be angry at me.

I'm sure you're baffled.

And I know it's hard to believe.

But I only did the best I could
in that situation.

Sang Beom was...

the man I used to love.

You should go home now.

Your husband is here.

As complicated as it is,
you should forget about it for now.

I'll see you some other time.

Honey, what's wrong?

She must've been dizzy.
She suddenly dropped on her knees.

My goodness. Gosh.

You should've just stayed home.

You weren't feeling so well
after the move.

I'm not surprised you're sick.

Should I carry you on my back?

No, it's okay.

Let's go home.

Ma'am, we'll be off now.
I'll see you next week.

Come on. Give me your bag.

Always let me know
if you don't feel well.

But don't worry.

If you ever hurt your legs,
I'll carry you around.

If you ever grow old
and can't see properly,

I'll see for you instead.

What's the matter?

Did I touch you?

Don't be too kind to me.

What are you talking about?

You're my wife.
I should cherish and love you.

How am I going to
explain this to you?

What am I going to do now?

About Mr. Kang's wife...

Wasn't she beautiful?

Mr. Kang is a very kind man.

And he loves his wife very much.

They seem to love each other a lot.

You don't eat other fruits,
but you love strawberries.

Do you not get headaches these days?

Tomorrow, you're going to
receive treatment for aphasia.

I hope you get your memory back,

and I can't wait until you're
finally able to speak again.

Why does it feel like
you're hiding something from me?

What is it?
Is there something you want to say?

(Has...)

(Has anyone come looking...)

Has anyone come looking for me?

Don't feel too anxious.

The cops have your identity
registered in their system,

so I'm sure someone will call.

You look really sick.
Let's go to the hospital.

It's okay. I'm just tired.

Don't worry and go to work.

You don't have a fever.

Is there something you want to say?

Never mind. I'll tell you next time.

I'll be off to work then.

Jo Hyun Min, that jerk.

I need to find him first.

(How to find someone
who ran away abroad)

A Jun hasn't called, has he?

I'm sure he'll come to work.

This is between me and him,
so let me take care of it.

Then what should I do
about the promise I made?

I promised to meet
Alley's biological mother with him.

I made him that promise,
so I want to keep it.

Yes, I think you should.

Good morning.

What's with that complicated look
in your eyes?

Life is supposed to be complicated.

I guess you didn't take
the tonics I gave you.

Your face is still dark and yellow.

Have the tonics.

It's made with natural mulberries,
phellinus linteus,

and wild ginseng.

If you want me to be healthy,

don't do anything to make me angry.

You need to control your anger
to build a good character.

You need to refrain
from saying too much...

to build inner strength.

And you shouldn't think too much...

in order to have the ability
to control your emotions.

So don't think of
doing anything reckless...

and just give up on trying to become
the chairman.

My gosh.

You guys look so nice together.

Seriously.

You guys should travel
around the world and have fun.

That's enough.

I guess I should stop provoking you
since the day only just started.

- Take it out.
- Yes, ma'am.

I work out by taking the stairs.

I see.

I once climbed up Mount Kilimanjaro.

And later on,
I plan to climb Mount Everest.

Let's go.

She's so hard to figure out.

The more I get to know her,
the more I find her confusing.

She has no malice,
but she's too ambitious.

I don't feel comfortable
that she and I have to compete.

You came to work early.

Why didn't you answer your phone?

Jung Min called you several times.

I told you not to try so hard.

When we're angry,
we tend to say things we don't mean.

You should resolve the hard feelings
you have toward him.

You're the one
who made yourself feel that way,

so it's your job to resolve it.

Ms. Lee.

Are you worried
I might use my power of attorney...

to vote against Jung Min...

so that he won't become
the chairman?

Yes, I'm worried.

But the Chairman Chung I know...

doesn't let his personal life
interfere with his business,

and he's our ally.

So I trust he'll support Jung Min
more than anyone.

That's very contradictory.

You trust him, but you're worried?

I'm saying I want to trust him.

Then keep trusting him.

We were supposed to meet
Alley's biological mother,

but you postponed it.

When is it?

You don't need to keep your promise.

I want to keep the promises I make.

- Good morning.
- Hello.

Good morning.

I see you both
came to work early again.

Director Seo will get jealous
to see you guys together so often.

Ms. Lee, I shouldn't have said that.

Na Kyung, do you act like
you're slow-witted on purpose?

Do you always provoke me on purpose?

Do you guys always fight on purpose?

Let's get to work.

May I help you, Ms. Seo?

I'm here on Director Seo's behalf.

He wishes to meet you.

I'm not Seorin's employee.

Must I go see him
just because he wants to see me?

He should come to me
if he needs to talk.

He said you should come to him
if you need to talk.

(Director Seo Jung Min)

Okay. You may leave.

A Jun.

Do you think this is a hotel
or your playground?

How dare you ask him
to drive your car out for you?

I wasn't feeling well,
so I asked him to do me a favor.

You asked for a favor?

Don't you know
that it's not allowed?

Are you trying to show off
that you're Chairman Chung's son?

Jung Min, that's enough.
You're embarrassing A Jun.

This is going against
the company rules.

Please don't get involved.

You're going to tell me
that I broke the company rules...

just because I asked a security
guard to bring my car out?

When will you start
behaving yourself?

Do you like
seeing people bow down to you...

just because you got in here
using your connections?

Don't you think you just
crossed the line?

You're the one who crossed the line.

Stop acting so haughty.

Hey! Stop right there!

Was I too harsh on him?

I guess I acted that way
because I got jealous.

What's going on?

Director Seo, it looks like
the investment...

for the new project
we proposed to Chung Group...

might not go through.

Where did you get
this information from?

I heard it from the executives
of Chung Group.

We didn't get any official messages,

so let's wait and see.

If this information
came from the executives,

I think it's pretty much valid.

Sir.

In order to reform a company
while trying to keep things stable,

it's essential to have enough money.

If we try to reform the company...

using our own money
with no investments whatsoever,

the board members
and stockholders will be against it.

And it's highly likely that our plan
will go down the drain.

If rumors start to spread
saying Chung Group...

has decided not to invest
in our new project,

many of your supporters
might turn their backs on you.

Then I won't be able
to become the chairman.

I'm sure the stockholders felt
very safe and secure to know...

that I had the support
of Chung Group.

First, it's important to find out
if this is all true.

But if we do anything now,
it might pressure them,

and that might result
in something worse.

So why don't we ask Mr. Shin
to ask for us instead?

Sir.

Mr. Shin jokingly said this to me
a few days ago.

He told me
I should start thinking about...

what I can offer him once he hits
the peak of his success.

He also told me he won't take long.

And Chairman Chung
apparently told him...

that when you're
planning something important,

you should work with an employee
who's rational and cool-headed.

What could that important thing be?

I'm somehow bothered by that.

"Something important"?

I'm not sure.

(Director Choi Myung Hwa)

I heard the coffee here
tastes great.

I'm sure you're not just here
for coffee.

Have a seat. Let's sit down.

(Jung Min)

It looks like Jung Min's calling.
Aren't you going to pick up?

We're having a conversation.

I'm a man of manners.

My mom wants you to visit Shanghai.

Did I just get invited?

She must've really liked
the painting you sent her.

You must've done your research
about my mom.

I've only heard rumors.

I heard she's very beautiful,

does her best to support
Chairman Chung,

and that she rarely goes outside.

And I heard she owns a lot of
famous artwork from abroad.

That's about it.

Oh, right.

I also heard she loves collecting
pottery from the Song Dynasty.

My mom likes things
that are graceful and refined.

But it's still hard to understand
why she'd pay 43 million dollars...

for a porcelain.

You mean at Sotheby's in Hong Kong?
I was there too.

I only saw her from afar.

I think she's planning to build
a personal museum at home.

That's why she's inviting you.

I came to tell you this,
so I should get going now.

Mr. Shin.

Should I give you a tip?

What do you think you need to do
to be happy?

You just need to get what you want.

Don't you want Ji Eun?

So what if I want her?
That doesn't mean I can have her.

She's head over heels for Jung Min.

It's too late for me.

There's no such thing
as being too late in life.

You just need to make it happen.

Jung Min was right.

What did Jung Min say about me?

He said you know
how to enter people's minds.

That's my strength.

Should I tell you what you can do
to do the same...

with Ji Eun?

No.

It's not fun to know the future.

It's more fun to enjoy the process
of seeing her become mine.

I must say, I'm impressed.

I had to be quick-witted
and on my toes to survive,

so I'm not dumb.

Ma'am, I have good news.

I just got a call from Jung Soo Ho.

Apparently, Chung Group is
planning to cancel the investment...

they were planning to make
on Seorin's new project.

That means it will be difficult
for Jung Min to become the chairman.

I'm so happy that my heart
is beating like crazy.

I didn't know A Jun had
that much influence.

It looks like his mother...

has full control
over Chairman Chung.

When a son begs his mother
for something,

mothers have no choice
but to give them what they want.

He had to tiptoe around the family
to survive,

so I'm sure she has
a very soft side for him.

I should become closer with A Jun.

Mom, just do as I say.

You're good at convincing Stepdad.

You agreed to help me out,
so do it properly.

You're a pro at making him
change his mind,

so I'll leave that to you.

Meanwhile, I just need
to receive his acknowledgment...

by exceeding his expectations
regarding the joint project.

And I need someone
to support me here.

So find a decent guy
and send him to Seorin.

Dad is also a major shareholder.

So he has every right
to recommend a CEO.

I'm going to have one of my guys
become the CEO of Seorin...

and make him be my avatar
until I finally take over.

I want you to get moving right now.
We have no time.

(Restricted area)

I can't wait to see
how Jung Min will react to this.

Dad is also a major shareholder.

So he has every right
to recommend a CEO.

I'm going to have one of my guys
become the CEO of Seorin...

and make him be my avatar
until I finally take over.

Turn it off right now.

Sir, I think you should
prepare yourself for this.

Ms. Seo.

Thank you for caring.

But don't ever do this again.

It's illegal to record
a private conversation.

I don't want people
to criticize me...

thinking I made you do this.

It was very thoughtless of me.

I only recorded it because
I was worried he might harm you.

But I guess it could've gotten you
in bigger trouble.

I'm sorry, sir.

I won't ever do this again.

I'll delete it right now. I'm sorry.

(Recording File 2)

(Delete)

It's okay. People make mistakes.

But not many people are able
to acknowledge their mistakes.

I feel very reassured to know
that a wise woman like you...

is working for me as my secretary.

I'm going to do everything I can
to support you, sir.

If anyone gets in your way,

I won't stand still.

You moved back to your old house,

and you even got back together
with Jung Min.

Only good things keep
happening to you, Ji Eun.

Congratulations.

I'm so happy for you.
I really mean it.

Thank you.

I'm really grateful too.
I'm also very happy.

But Bok Ja,

I find myself
feeling nervous at times.

There's no need to feel nervous.

You're only feeling that way
because you've been through so much.

I guess I just have
a habit of worrying.

You've seem to have lost
so much weight.

Is work stressing you out?

I've been doing this for years,
so everything's fine with work.

But as you know,
my love life is complicated.

Didn't you get back together
with Yeo Jin?

I don't know
if we're broken up or not.

Regardless of whether or not
you're dating,

you and Yeo Jin have
known each other for a long time.

I think that's the problem.

We've known each other
for so long,

so it feels awkward
not having him around.

But I'm not ready to fight against
his mother's disapproval,

so I also feel like running away.

To be honest, I was really hurt.

Yeo Jin's mother treated me
like I was a criminal or something.

I was dumbfounded and furious
at the same time.

He may be a precious son to her.

But let's be honest.
Yeo Jin doesn't have much to offer.

You must've been really hurt.

But let me tell you something.

If you really love each other,
you can't break up.

Just like me and Jung Min.

Unbelievable.

Do you know how annoying you are
right now?

It's impossible
to break up with him.

- Here.
- What's this?

You're running low on sugar,
aren't you?

By the way, Ji Eun,

your sister, Young Eun,
can be a bit silly, but she's cute.

I bet it'd be fun
to have a little sister like her.

You know my sister?

I'd like to get to know her.

Are you interested in her?

She's cute.

You totally drew a line between us
that day.

Don't you remember?

That means I can start
liking someone else.

But I still like Bok Ja a bit more.

Thank you.

What?

You told me to come see you
if I needed to talk.

What do I need to do...

to make you feel better?

Break up with Ji Eun.

(Phoenix 2020)

Break up with Ji Eun.

Do you think you'll feel better
by hurting me?

I'm done talking to you. Get lost.

You look really depressed.
Should we turn on some music?

I should spend
a lot of time with you, Ms. Seo.

The man with a cane
left just now in a hurry.

If you don't tell me what it is
that you're hiding from me,

I should find out myself.

I need some time.
I'll see you tomorrow.
