Tell me. The real reason you want to marry me.

Is it to get your revenge?

On Han Yu Ra and Lee Jung Hye?

Yes. Because I know Han Yu Ra wants you.

If Yu Ra is hurting,

Se Hyeok's heart will break too because he loves her.

The same goes for my mother, for her real daughter is her everything.

They'll all be in pain.

Yes.

This was exactly what I wanted to hear.

I should prepare this much when rescuing my princess.

For now, this will do.

This is okay with you, right?

Would you...

marry me, Han Yi Ju?

No.

Marry me, Yi Ju.

I didn't prepare anything though.

I'm sorry.

Then just show me.

Was this not what you meant?

Gosh, I'm sorry.

I just thought...

That's...

simply not enough.

What?

(Episode 3)

Hello?

What's going on between you and Seo Do Guk?

What are you talking about all of a sudden?

There's an article about you two dating.

What?

(Taeja Group's Second Grandson Caught Having Secret Rendezvous)

Who wrote this?

(An Soo Jin)

(Reporter Choi Mi Hyun)

(Sending Email, Please Wait)

(Message Could Not Be Sent, Invalid Email Address)

It says the reporter's name is Choi Mi Hyun,

but it won't help us. The email address doesn't exist.

"A-Best News?"

Do you know this company?

They'd write about anything if you paid them.

- What? - As for the major daily newspapers,

the desk wouldn't release this like what I'm doing here.

They can just take it down, you know.

That's why they found a company...

that would distribute it to every web portal.

Once it's published like this, it can't be undone.

No way.

Who's meticulous enough to plan all this?

(Seo Do Guk was caught having a secret rendezvous with a woman.)

Oh, no.

I want you to look pretty.

That's right.

It was all planned.

What? So you think you know who did this?

Who?

Anyone can tell that this was all your doing, Do Guk!

Why would you assume that it was me, Mother?

- You have no evidence. - I know you.

I don't care what you say.

This marriage cannot happen, no matter what!

Oh, no. I've got a meeting. I have to go.

- Mr. Byun. - Yes, sir.

I'll tell them to take down the article as soon as possible.

No, you don't need to do that.

Okay. Pardon me?

You don't need to tell them to take it down...

- because I'm marrying her. - What?

- What do you say? The two of us. - Oh, dear.

- Do we look cute together? - Well...

Shall I answer this as your brother-in-law...

or as your executive assistant?

Well...

Either way, I want to hear a positive answer.

That is impossible.

As you and I both heard a moment ago,

Mother yelled that she would never allow...

She reacted the same way when you and Do Na decided to get married,

but you guys got married in the end.

However, the countless struggles we faced in that process...

Whether it's about your business or marriage,

the outcome is what matters.

And I'm a man who produces outcomes.

Let's go and start the meeting.

What is this, a hunger strike?

Why won't you eat?

You don't care if I collapse.

- I know you don't, Dad. - What?

How could you approve of Yi Ju's relationship with Do Guk?

I liked him first.

Then you should've won him over.

He came running...

and said he wanted to marry her at once. You saw that.

No one can stop a man who is head over heels for a woman.

Dad.

They can't get married just because they want to.

The wife of Choikang Group's president said...

Seo Do Guk's family was utterly offended by what happened.

The family would never approve of it.

They're getting way ahead of themselves.

- What? - Oh, that's right.

Doesn't someone in the family...

work for the Financial Supervisory Service?

You know, everyone's watching like a hawk now.

What if they meddle in our takeover because they're offended?

We can't let that happen.

Han Yi Ju.

Come here.

Can we really trust Seo Do Guk?

What if he makes a fuss and says he's crazy about you...

only to do a 180 and ditch you later on?

What exactly do you mean?

For people like us and the Taeja Group family,

marriage is like two companies signing an MOU together.

They'd approve of Yu Ra,

but you...

What are you going to do?

I'll get their permission.

The two of you will sit in the parents' seat at my wedding,

and Yu Ra will catch my bouquet.

We should hold our wedding...

with everyone's blessing.

Who will catch your bouquet?

Then what? You won't do it?

I have no friends.

What about the pre-wedding meeting? What will you do about that?

"Pre-wedding meeting?"

Yes. The families should meet before your wedding takes place.

And Father should be there too.

Right, honey?

Well, I'm not sure about that.

Chairwoman Lee Tae Ja will be there, so Father should come too.

Don't you agree?

Yes. I'm meeting Do Guk today anyway,

so I'll talk to him.

- Hello? - What are you waiting for? Hop in.

You're awfully impatient.

You even parked your car here...

- My gosh. - Who are you?

I'm sorry.

- Do Guk, someone else is here... - Yes, he's my executive assistant.

- Come with him. - What?

I'm Byun Jae Ho.

I'll take you there safely.

Yu Ra, you need to eat something.

Do you want to see me worrying myself sick?

Have you thought about how devastated I must be?

What is going on, Mom?

Those two...

Have you decided to side with them?

Have you?

Yu Ra.

When there's something you so desperately want,

do you know what you must do?

You must create an opportunity...

and learn to wait for it to come to pass.

Think about it.

Your father will do anything to do business with Taeja Group.

You can't just go against him because you're displeased.

The haughty Seo Do Guk fell for her too.

If his family were to give permission...

They won't.

Don't worry about a thing.

I'll take care of everything.

I'll head back, then.

Thank you.

If I may ask,

did we meet somewhere?

Pardon?

No, never mind. Goodbye.

When did you arrive?

Just now. What are you doing?

It won't be much longer. Sit down.

You won't have eaten yet.

It's a protein-based coffee. Drink as you wait.

It's not bad.

You can cook?

Did you take lessons?

I didn't have to.

I'm a good cook, I'm handsome,

and I'm pretty smart too.

I'm sure you are.

It's abalone risotto.

I made it extra smooth.

Let me have a taste first.

It's good.

Is it too good?

What are you doing?

Why are you doing all this?

Because...

I like to.

- What? - You asked why I did this.

It's because...

I like to cook.

The article about us. That was all you.

You even got them to print scandalous photos.

Why did you pay someone to write about us?

For fear that...

- you'd get cold feet? - What?

The offers you made me. They were too good to miss out on.

I want it all.

The information you promised me.

About the stock, company listing...

What was the other thing?

If you don't back out first,

you don't have to worry about me.

Is that so?

Then should we make things clear?

(Prenuptial Agreement)

A prenup?

We manage our own finances, ignore each other's love lives, etc.

What we discussed before is all there.

The duration of the contract...

We can agree on something.

The duration.

Let's make it a year.

And I'd like to add another clause.

Saying what?

That this union requires our families' blessing.

Only then is it worth it.

Lee Jung Hye, Han Yu Ra, and my father.

I want them to attend the wedding and bless us.

If you're to get the investment,

you need your grandmother's approval anyway.

I think that clause is something we both need.

(Date of Termination: July 25, 2023)

Do you agree?

I agree.

(Seo Do Guk, Han Yi Ju)

Are we business partners in earnest now?

Yes.

Then we'll need a base camp.

A base camp?

A place for us to discuss strategies.

A place for us to rest when we return from war.

Won't we need one?

What do you think...

about this place?

Isn't this where you live?

Why don't you leave home and live here?

You want us to live together?

- Are you insane? - I will...

return home today.

Shouldn't I do at least that...

to get my family's permission?

But still...

How am I to live in someone else's empty house?

All you need to eat is here.

They're all still sealed, so they're safe to eat.

And this will be our shared living area.

You can play games if you're bored. And...

this is my bedroom.

Unfortunately for you, I won't be here,

so don't go inside because you miss me.

And...

this is your bedroom.

Everything you need is here.

Who picked this out?

Was it you?

Tell me if you don't like it.

I can always fire my secretary.

No. I like it.

Give him an extra bonus.

So, when will you move in?

Will you be okay...

with me living here?

This place is already your home.

You can come whenever you want.

Don't you get a sense of deja vu?

You're right.

It got upgraded from a hotel key...

to a house key.

That day, Han Yi Ju decided to use that key,

and I decided to bet my life on her.

So don't give up.

I'll be with you...

through this fight.

Mr. Byun.

Mr. Byun?

- Mr. Byun! - You startled me.

What is it? Stop calling me...

Is it true? Is Mr. Seo getting married?

- I guess so. - Who is this woman he's marrying?

How great can she be to win over Mr. Seo's heart?

I guess she is.

(Secretary's Office)

I can't believe this.

First, Mr. Yu, and now Mr. Seo.

"Mr. Yu?"

I heard you even met her...

in front of the office the other day.

I'm sick of working overtime.

I hate it so much.

What? Gosh.

I packed you some food.

- Mr. Yu? - Is it going to be a late night?

Is that his girlfriend?

I think so.

- I'm sorry to hear that. - She's pretty.

I made a lot of tasty stuff.

Make sure you eat it.

What's the matter, Mr. Byun? Did something happen?

Yes.

In fact, something huge.

What's with Mr. Byun?

I guess the news of Mr. Seo's marriage shocked him.

What?

You must know, don't you?

Who is Mr. Seo going to marry?

Kang Si A.

Seol Soo Mi.

It's something about our CEO that hasn't been verified. No.

It's a baseless rumour.

It's not right for us to talk about it as his secretaries.

I was only curious since they released articles.

We're sorry, Mr. Yu.

Please be more cautious next time.

(Do whatever you want.)

Do whatever you want.

How's your mother?

Worried sick, of course.

By the way, what's wrong with your sister?

She must have the blues or cold feet.

What is there to be blue about?

She was head over heels for my brother.

She's a total psychopath.

It's okay.

I know that you're upset.

You do, right? I knew it.

You're the best.

But why don't you and your mom...

try to persuade her?

Us?

Give me this one.

If your family can coax her,

she might change her mind.

Most of all, she really liked Se Hyeok.

Yu Ra.

Hey, Han Yu Ra!

You're way too nice.

Too bad your sister isn't even half as nice.

How many zeros is that?

You should get it. I have a gift card.

Really?

It's nice, isn't it?

I saw something similar on Seo Do Na's social media account.

What do you think?

Honey,

are you saying the woman my brother wants to marry...

is the woman his secretary was going to marry until recently?

Yes, Honey. I saw them with my own eyes.

I'm sure of it.

Is she a femme fatale? Is she that seductive?

"Seductive?"

No, she's the opposite.

She's pure and innocent...

and it makes men want to protect her.

She's more of that type.

Did you fall for her too?

Do you want to marry her while you're at it?

No, Honey.

That's just the vibe I get.

You know my taste.

Your Honey finds women...

like Do Na who can really crush a man in a heartbeat...

much more attractive.

- Kiss, kiss. - I knew it.

I'll crush you later.

Yu Ra.

It's Do Na.

Long time no see. Are you well?

Let's skip the formalities.

- What's with your sister? - What?

I heard she already had a man she was going to marry.

Is this true?

Yes, it's true.

- Who are you? - My social media is SeHeeJjang.

You know it, don't you? I always comment on your posts.

I guess you don't.

- You have too many followers. - Yes.

She's the daughter of the man who used to drive for us.

The man my sister was planning to marry...

- was her brother. - What?

Your sister must have a wide range of tastes in men.

My sister...

is not mentally well.

I don't know if I should say this,

but she has a victim mentality.

It must be because she was adopted as a child.

Even when people are nice to her, she takes it the wrong way.

She's always trying to beat me somehow.

What is it? Why are you looking at me like that?

No big reason.

It's just that what you say is unexpected.

What is?

Since she was your sister,

I thought she would be like you.

Perhaps wrestling with each other...

to win over a good catch.

What? "Wrestling?"

But from the way you talk,

I can tell she's not your kind.

You don't see her as an equal.

That means you two are not the same kind.

Han Yi Ju is really strange.

My brother treated her so well...

I'll check for myself.

I only trust my own eyes.

Yi Ju.

Can we talk for a minute?

I have nothing to say to you.

How can you change your mind and call off the wedding?

What about Se Hyeok? Don't you feel sorry for him?

Do you have any idea what state he's in right now?

He must be happy since he won't be married off...

- for money. - What?

I know my family promised to get you a store.

Did you sign the contract already?

Are you doing this because you already paid...

the deposit and the premium?

How did you know?

But I had to do it since the location was good.

- I didn't know you would do this. - How pathetic.

- "Pathetic?" - If you need to suck money...

out of someone, get it from your son.

Don't ruin my life too.

What are you doing? Let go!

You're going to get it today.

You rude little wench.

Gosh.

Gosh, I'm in pain.

Get out of my sight.

I'll leave.

Please... Please take Se Hyeok back.

What are you scheming?

I'm not scheming anything.

I'll do everything you tell me.

So, please... Please take Se Hyeok back.

Let me go!

Mom! Mom, are you okay?

Han Yi Ju, you're stepping over the line.

You're the one who begged my brother to date you.

Dumping him wasn't enough, now you're dumping my mom.

How can you call yourself a human?

Are you crazy? Lower your voice.

At least you know this is shameful.

Everyone, take a look at this woman!

She dumped her boyfriend just a month before the wedding...

so she could switch over to a rich guy!

- What is she saying? - Is it true?

- Gosh. - Really? She did that?

Poor lady.

Observing you taught me this firsthand.

A life where you can't even say what you want.

And living that life, not even knowing...

that people look down on you and bad-mouth you for that.

- My goodness. - How can someone do that?

She's totally crazy.

My poor Se Hyeok...

- That is just unbelievable. - How can such a thing happen?

Really?

- That's crazy. - Gosh.

- Let's go. - That woman is evil.

I can't believe such a person exists.

Poor Se Hyeok. My pitiful son.

Your acting was great, Jae Sook.

How is your butt? Is it okay?

Yes.

But, Madam Lee.

Even if we do this, will Yi Ju come back to Se Hyeok?

Of course.

Yi Ju is just reaching for a pie in the sky.

We need to break her fantasy so that she knows her place.

We'll welcome her with open arms then.

This is for all of our sakes.

Don't you agree, my in-law?

- We're in-laws? - Of course.

Good work today.

If you feel any pain, do visit the doctor.

I will.

When that time comes, what will happen to me?

Yi Ju, please?

We're family, after all.

Will I die again?

(Dress Tour)

Or...

will I gain a new life?

That day, Han Yi Ju decided to use that key,

and I decided to bet my life on her.

So don't give up.

I'll be with you...

One thing's for sure.

I will...

never repeat the past again.

(Lee Jung Hye)

That is how...

I can change the future.

(The gallery)

Edouard Vuillard.

Instead of realistic portrayals, he added his own subtle nuances.

Having that air of elegance was his trademark.

Not bad. This is pretty good.

The canvas and paint that you provided...

were just like his. I feel like I am back in 1980s Paris.

You're a perfectionist when it comes to work.

How unusual of you to give me your comments.

Ms. Oh, take this painting and store it.

It still needs some touch-ups.

This is just nice.

Yi Ju, you should know when to stop.

One extra step and you'll end up ruining things.

Why did you go into the office?

I had a look at the list of customers.

Why would you?

I want to sell some paintings.

Didn't I have some paintings in the storage?

Please return them so I can take them.

You want to sell the pieces that even the gallery couldn't?

If you're so free, you should go get your marriage approved.

Have you given up already?

Of course not.

I'm just getting started.

I was planning to go visit Grandfather at the care center.

In that case, I'll get Mr. Kim to bring you.

He knows the way since he's been there often.

Is that okay?

Of course.

I'd be glad for the favour.

Grandfather.

Grandfather.

Grandfather, it's Yi Ju. Can you open up, please?

Grandfather.

Please stop her. She's been at it for ten minutes.

Call the police, then. That'd make my work easier.

- How can I? She's the... - Grandfather.

Please open up.

And? She was turned away at the door?

Yes. She stayed there for 30 minutes while I came back first.

I told them to call the police if they had to.

Good work.

Go ahead and stay there all night long.

Go away!

I said, go away!

Go away at once!

All he'll do...

is quiver under the sheets in fear.

Han Yi Ju.

Let's see.

What will you do now?

It's so good.

Aren't you eating?

Help yourself.

You need to stop being such a picky eater.

Your husband will abandon you.

I need to be married first to even have a husband, right?

Why? Is it not going well?

It's not easy.

That's why I need lessons from Ms. An Soo Jin...

to marry into Taeja Group.

Okay.

Look. When faced with many enemies,

do you know what's the best way to win?

Just attack one guy.

I'm not telling you to attack literally.

Focus on the strongest guy and beat them.

That's the most effective way.

And who would that be?

My aunt.

It's Seo Do Guk's mother, Cha Yeon Hwa.

At first, after Uncle's divorce,

he didn't want to remarry because of Jung Wook.

But he caved in to Aunt just after two years.

Even her mother-in-law can't win over her.

And I'm supposed to go against her? Can I even win?

What's this?

(Cooking Class Membership)

A cooking class membership?

It's like a social club...

hosted by a woman called Jamie for elite women.

Aunt goes there.

There's always gossip and drama among the members.

She must be getting rumours because of you.

So you're saying...

- I should just face her head on? - Right.

I should show up at the rich ladies' battlefield...

and tell them I'm the rumoured girl.

- Is that it? - Yes.

You're very straightforward. Aunt may like you.

So even if you get ripped to shreds or fight it out,

just try doing what you want.

Just keep this in mind.

The more you try to please her,

you'll only lose her favour.

What does she want me to do?

- What do you think? - My, it's gorgeous.

She keeps buying these things. I'm too blessed.

- Goodness. - Madam.

Did you get a new ring?

My, you have keen eyes.

I can't believe you noticed this. Goodness.

- My, what's this? - It's so pretty.

- It's so bright. - She has incredibly keen eyes.

That's why she paired up your son with Prosecutor Min.

Tell me about it.

Prosecutor Min was the one who gave me this ring.

Every morning,

I bow in the direction of Jamie's house.

I didn't do anything much.

I just set up a date for the two.

Look at how good she is with her words.

I can't help but be grateful to her.

Of course, I am also always grateful...

to Madam Cha.

Because her second son rejected Prosecutor Min,

she was able to become my daughter-in-law.

I had wondered...

what kind of woman her incredible son would date.

Oh, my. I heard they were getting married?

I think you heard some silly rumours.

You mean you wish they were rumours?

- What? - As a mom myself, I understand.

You must want to deny it.

He was so stuck up...

that he even rejected a prosecutor.

He's fallen head over heels...

for an adopted girl from goodness knows where.

And now, he won't even listen to his parents.

Honestly, I don't even want to imagine myself in such a situation.

Did you just speak ill of my son?

Goodness. What are you talking about?

I just feel so sorry for you.

Shall I make you feel sorrier for your face?

- Gosh, stop. - Ms. Cha, don't be like this.

- Let go. - Goodness.

Gu Bong Ja, you need a beating.

- My gosh. - Why are you being like this?

- Oh, boy. - My goodness.

I guess I'm quite famous.

Who might you be?

Are you the one who's supposed to be here for the interview?

Yes.

It's nice to meet you.

I'm Han Yi Ju.

- See you. - Bye.

Bye, I'm off.

- Take care. - Bye.

Great work today.

I know Soo Jin's mother very well,

so I accepted her recommendation,

but wouldn't things be awkward between you and Ms. Cha Yeon Hwa?

I'm here to prevent just that.

So, in other words...

You're here...

to convince your boyfriend's mother so you can marry him?

That has nothing to do with the cooking class.

I'm sorry.

However, I was told that this was where the marriages...

of all the politicians and financiers' children get decided.

So I believe I've come to the right place.

And to tell you the truth, I do need to learn how to cook.

All right. Then show me.

The thing I asked you to bring.

What is this?

I asked you to bring something you made with your own hands.

Right, but you didn't say it had to be food.

What?

So you brought a painting?

I totally wasn't expecting this.

Painting is the only thing I'm good at.

I was hoping you'd accept me if I gave it to you as a bribe.

I don't need a bribe.

How about I buy it?

Have you sold your paintings before?

Pardon me? No.

So you're a complete rookie.

And this is a number-four canvas, so...

Here, take it.

I hate feeling indebted.

Thank you.

Does this mean you'll accept me?

Twice a week, from 4 to 6pm.

I look forward to working with you.

This cooking class is very expensive.

There's no way you're here just to learn how to cook.

What do you say, Ms. Han?

Do you have time for a cup of tea?

Yes.

I called her here. You're okay with this, right?

Why is it that a father and son are more awkward around each other...

than they are around complete strangers?

Don't say that, Mother. That's not true.

Why are you eating like a bird?

Do you not have much of an appetite?

It's not that, Father.

I'm eating just fine.

I suppose it's because his girlfriend isn't here.

- Am I right? - Gosh, no.

Ms. Lee Tae Ja, I have you right here. You're way cooler.

Goodness. You have a way with words. Thank you.

It's been a while, Do Guk.

It has been, indeed.

Do Guk is getting married.

Are you seeing anyone?

If I had time for that,

I'd check out one more site for a new apartment complex.

Are you a workaholic?

I'm against you turning into a workaholic.

You need a happy family to be more successful at work.

Who'd marry off their precious daughter to someone like me?

Why not? There's nothing wrong with you, Jung Wook.

The one who has more potential should get your support.

All the wealthy bachelorettes were smitten with Do Guk.

He's finally found the one.

He must be so in love...

for him to move back in of his own accord.

Aren't you equally uncomfortable when I'm around?

Don't worry.

I'll move out as soon as Mother changes her mind.

What if the reason is something you can't change?

What?

One can't change one's background.

I heard she was adopted.

What about it?

"She grew up with a stepmother,"

"so she probably wasn't raised with love."

"She must be twisted in the head since she was picked on."

Most people would think that.

Jung Wook.

Do you think that too?

Gosh, I'm just telling you what most people would think.

Prejudice is a scary thing.

About what you said earlier.

Don't you think that was petty?

- What? - You keep poking me...

to see how I'll react. Stop that.

If you keep doing that, people will say you're insecure.

What did I do?

Are you sure it's me being insecure,

not you being delusional?

So I'm wrong?

Okay, I hope you're right about that.

Do Guk, you seem to have changed a little.

I'll no longer let my past sway me.

Dwelling on the past changes nothing.

I see that my little brother has become a grown man.

I suppose you're happy that you're getting hitched.

I sure am happy.

So, that woman made you change like this.

I'm curious what kind of person she is.

All right.

You'll meet her at my wedding.

Try to keep a poker face.

We shouldn't show everyone that we hate each other, right?

Why do I have to act like I don't hate you?

What?

I don't want to be fake.

If you want to be fake, go for it.

I heard you liked Viennese coffee,

so I prepared this in advance.

Thank you.

Here's your citron tea, Yi Ju. It's hot.

Are you two on bad terms?

No, we get along very well...

Yes, we're not exactly on good terms.

Well, I shouldn't meddle in your family matters. It's okay.

But...

Two sisters fighting...

over the same guy. How should I put this?

It doesn't look good. You know?

Here's what I think.

How about you give up, Yi Ju?

- Pardon me? - Yu Ra was the one...

who met him first.

Also, I believe she's the one...

at Do Guk's level.

Besides, it'd look nice if you conceded to your little sister.

However,

I have never once conceded to Yu Ra.

Really?

You don't seem that selfish. Are you really that selfish?

Nothing in that house was ever mine to begin with.

Yi Ju, what are you talking about?

Ms. Cha will get the wrong idea.

I understand what you're trying to tell me,

I don't think one giving up for the other will solve anything.

We should ask what Do Guk thinks too.

And...

from now on, I'd rather you not invite Yu Ra.

She talks back at every turn.

Are you always this impolite?

You're the impolite one, Mother, not her.

What the heck is going on here?

What are you doing here?

Did Yi Ju call you?

No, I didn't.

I dropped by to pick you up.

To earn some brownie points.

I don't want to anymore.

Let's go.

Stand up.

My goodness. This is unbelievable.

You barged in here to see me,

and my own son...

is anxious I said something untoward.

Shouldn't I be the offended party?

Mother, that was...

I apologize for barging in to see you.

If I may say so,

I thought you'd understand where I was coming from.

I would? Why?

Like us, you also...

got married against your family's will.

No.

- Our circumstances are different. - Pardon?

My husband was a divorced man with a son,

and I had never been married.

I have a great temperament, am feisty,

I speak my mind.

And I'm beautiful.

I married the man practically out of charity.

That means I most definitely married for love.

But to be honest,

you're way beneath my Do Guk.

You recently broke off an engagement.

There are truckloads of women...

who'd love to throw themselves at Do Guk.

How can you prove you're not one of those women?

- That's... - Do you love Do Guk?

You want to marry him,

but you can't even answer that?

You must want to know...

why I broke off my engagement.

It was because I was betrayed.

I realized the man's family used me to get what they wanted.

I'd told myself I'd never love again.

But then I met Do Guk and...

I thought...

this man at least...

wouldn't betray a woman...

he cares about in that manner.

Even if he were to do so,

he has a feisty mother...

who speaks her mind and who'd never let him get away with it.

What?

I apologize for today.

I hope to see you again, Mother.

I got your call...

when I was at the department store with my mother.

She told me to give this to you.

Sorry, but I didn't bring anything.

You don't have to.

Please accept this. No strings attached.

Next time. "Give and take" is my motto.

You did well.

I should've gotten to her first.

It's fine.

You look a bit tired.

I haven't slept.

Why not?

You're concerned?

No. I just asked a question.

I don't like my family's home.

Like you.

I see.

We have that in common.

Can you take me to your place?

I don't want to go home today either.

I have a condition.

- A condition? - Can I...

get a glass of water?

Are you hinting...

I'm an unwanted guest?

- Why? - It suddenly got so awkward.

- Could it be that... - Be what?

You can't stand my guts or...

You're starting to feel something for me...

- It's the former. - Shoot.

How will you ever get our families' blessing?

- What? - We must...

get to know each other and grow closer.

Only then will other people take us for a real couple.

Aren't I right?

You are.

You have a point.

Right?

- So let's... - My details.

I'll give you a full portfolio.

Give me your email.

A portfo...

Why would you do that?

Can't we just talk?

Then shall we play Twenty Questions?

Or take turns asking each other something?

Here. This will help.

Why are you offering me beer?

Let's talk only until you finish that.

You're a lightweight.

I couldn't drink much then because I wasn't feeling my best.

You said you wanted to get back at Lee Jung Hye and Han Yu Ra.

What would be the best way to do that?

Love me.

- What? - You and I...

don't fit the rich family arranged marriage formula.

To say we'll benefit each other,

Hanul is hardly on the same level as Taeja Group.

That means...

we must take the opposite approach.

Regardless of our families' companies,

as a man and a woman,

we love each other too much, so we have to marry.

Only then, as you wish,

do we stand a chance to get their blessing as you so want.

You mean...

I must throw myself into the act.

- As if I really love you. - Can you do that?

You bet.

Look at you.

You could grab an ox by the horns.

Aren't you a little too resolute?

I always manage when I put myself to it.

- Show me. - Show you what?

Confess your love for me. I'll judge for you.

Why don't you go first?

If I do,

do you think you can handle it?

It won't be anything you can imagine.

What?

You don't know...

how much I love you or...

when I fell for you.

How was that? Did your heart flutter?

You should've taken up acting instead of business.

Thanks, but I'm pretty good at business too.

Do Guk. You should leave.

What? Now?

Neither of us will remember this anyway.

I'll email you an Excel file with my details.

- Wait. I drove here. - I know, that's why you must...

Will you let me...

stay the night?

How many did he drink?

Hey.

If you're going to sleep, go sleep in the room.

He's sweating so much.

Do Guk.

What are you dreaming about?

Who are you talking to, and what are you saying?

I really don't get you...

the more I see you.

Gosh.

My goodness.

- Ms. Han? - Mother?

Mother, we didn't do anything. I swear.

Come on, I'm not an oldie.

I'm open-minded.

I studied abroad, you know.

I see.

Maybe it's because I studied in Korea.

What happened to him?

Son. Seo Do Guk?

What's wrong with him?

What do you mean? He's sleeping.

How can he sleep with all this noise? Him?

- Should I wake him up? - No.

He always struggled with sleep.

Just let him be.

Are you leaving just like that?

Fine. I guess I could tell you directly.

Let's have our families meet. All of them.

- Pardon? - But there's a condition.

Can you keep a secret from Do Guk?

His family wants to meet us?

Yes.

She asked if this weekend might work.

It's me. Cancel the weekend booking I have at Yushin Restaurant.

Make up an excuse for them.

Yes.

"Yushin Restaurant?" Were you going to meet financiers?

I was going to spend money on them to build more networks,

but we're about to become the in-laws of Taeja Group.

I can make more connections through them.

But not like this.

Ms. Lee Tae Ja will be coming from their side.

We also need to prepare...

Yes. It's me.

Can I pass the phone to Father?

Father.

(Grandfather)

It's Grandfather.

Yes?

Hello, Father.

Understood. Please take care.

Bye.

He says we should go ahead and plan Yi Ju's wedding.

He gives her his approval.

What did you do?

Grandfather, please open the door.

We'll have to call the authorities if you keep this up.

It won't work.

He only listens...

to what he wants to hear. He ignores everything else.

He only listens to what he wants...

Yi Ju...

I can't let you die.

No way.

Please forgive me.

Please... Forgive me.

I...

I don't want to be punished in the afterlife.

Yi Ju.

He wanted to be forgiven.

But for what?

(Patient: Han)

Grandfather.

I met a good man.

I want to marry him and start a family of my own.

That's why I came to get your permission.

You know,

I resented you before,

but not anymore.

I've forgiven everything. I mean it.

So you should also...

(Patient: Han)

What did you say?

Grandfather.

What did you just say?

That I've found happiness.

After that!

That...

I'll forgive everything.

Yi Ju.

Did you already know it all?

Is that so?

Yes.

I did.

As for the location,

I'll let you know when they choose a place.

Yi Ju, you...

Don't get ahead of yourself.

You haven't achieved anything yet.

Then why do you look so anxious?

- What? - You shouldn't frown so much.

You should try to smile when we meet their family.

Just like how I had to smile...

all of my life while living here.

Darn it.

Gosh.

(Big Person Foundation)

Is this the right place?

Why are we meeting at a place like this?

There they are.

- Gosh, you're here. - Ma'am.

Thank you for travelling all this way.

It was our pleasure.

It's nice and tranquil.

If we meet at a crowded and noisy place,

it'll only start strange rumours.

I thought meeting somewhere humble like this might be nice.

To be honest, it's hard to understand.

If you had any intention...

of welcoming our daughter into your family,

you wouldn't treat us like this.

- Honey. That's rude of you to say. - No.

You have the ability to grasp the situation well.

You must be the big shot behind Hanul Group.

I'm Cha Yeon Hwa.

I'm Lee Jung Hye.

(Perfect Marriage Revenge)

I prepared a gift.

You could say it's a forgery.

Are you out of your mind?

Yes. So don't get on my nerves.

I bet you didn't know Mr. Seo tried to kill someone.

Didn't you see Yi Ju's shocked face?

What happens if it's not fake?

What if I want a real marriage? What will you do?

You can't possibly want the best for their marriage.

Ms. Han, I'm hoping you'd leave on your own terms.
