That must be Hyera.

I'll get it.

(Episode 7)

Hey! Dongseok was outside, so I brought him in.

I bought porridge, so I'll bring it right in.

Dongseok.

What are you doing here?

I heard Mira was sick,

so I stopped by on my way to work.

But what about you?

Oh, I had something to ask her.

Really?

- What were you talking about? / - What?

- Well... / - You should go first.

If I feel better, I'll go in this afternoon.

No, no. Don't come.

Don't come, and rest.

Dongseok, I'll see you later.

Sure. I'll come later.

You haven't left yet either?

No. See you later.

I'm sorry about last night.

I was just too angry

and said things I should never have said.

You hurt my pride first, though.

Otherwise, I never would have said such things.

It was the first time I had ever proposed,

but you kept evading the question, using

- silly excuses... / - That hurt your pride that much?

Enough to insult my late father?

Please leave for now.

I'm not well. I'm tired.

Let me ask one thing.

Are you pushing off your answer

because of Kim Jihyeok?

No, I'm not.

I don't know what's what anymore.

"What a man should do after kissing a woman."

What?

I'm sorry, I needed you to review...

But what are you reading?

I got an e-mail

and this popped up when I clicked on it.

So this is what they call e-mail spam.

But it's a search engine.

So Mira. Kim Jihyeok.

Why did you put them together?

Pardon?

Did you ask her to monitor him?

Yes, Sir.

You never noticed anything strange between them?

Please don't beat around the bush.

I'm not well, as you know.

I thought they seemed interested in each other.

Okay. You may leave.

Interested...

Hey, Mira.

Are you feeling better? Did you have your porridge?

I wanted to stop by with some fruit after work.

What do you like?

Should I bring something I usually eat

like pineapples?

What?

Where are you? In the lobby?

Wow. I was just heading to the lobby, too.

Wait right there.

I'm almost there. I see you.

I told you not to come in.

Let's get something to eat. It's my treat.

Mira.

What are you doing?

I'll be honest.

I was a coward. I was afraid I'd lose you.

I'm sorry. I love you, Mira.

Please stop. People are staring.

I won't hide our relationship any longer.

I'll be open and proud.

- Drink slowly. / - Let go.

I'm going to drink myself to death.

Talk about choosing the wrong girl.

Mom.

What should I do?

What should I do, Mom?

What else? You need to let go of your feelings quietly.

She's the first woman he's ever liked.

It's not that easy.

Why do you think she never told you?

It's because she has no feelings for you as a guy.

- Really? / - That's not necessarily true.

If she had no feelings for you,

she would've told you right away to make you stop.

- That's true. / - You brat.

You found your brother after 30 years.

You shouldn't start a fight over some woman.

You're right.

Yes, he found his brother after 30 years,

but Mira is the first woman he found in 30 years, too.

She's just as important.

You're right, too.

Give up on her.

If it's messy from the start, it won't end well.

There are plenty of women out there.

Why do you want someone so complicated?

- Give up? / - I think...

Mira's opinion matters the most in this case.

See how she feels. If she doesn't like you,

it's not too late to give up on her then.

That's true. I should talk to her first.

Mira. I'm going to see her now. Mira!

Good luck!

Why is his life always so messy?

Nothing is ever easy for him.

- I need to tell you... / - I have something to...

You first.

I'm sorry, Sir.

What

are you sorry about?

Consider what happened this morning as an accident.

An accident?

And I'm sorry for not telling you

that Dongseok and I were dating.

It's okay.

You had no reason to tell me.

What did you want to say?

It's nothing now.

Pardon?

Because

you just gave me your answer.

It's cold tonight.

Go in. You'll catch a cold.

I'm sorry.

I'm deceiving you too much

to be honest about my feelings.

A subpoena from the Prosecutors' Office came in.

Do you want me to postpone it?

Or request that it be kept confidential?

No, I'll go.

And there's no need to keep it confidential.

Let it go public.

That way, my brother will help me.

How will the questioning go, Prosecutor Chang?

Really? They're done gathering evidence?

This will be a pretty exciting game.

Dongseok.

Just a minute.

Thanks anyway.

Don't worry. It'll have an interesting ending.

What's up?

- I heard you were subpoenaed? / - Yes.

Can't you postpone it for health reasons?

It's not like that will help. I should go.

You can't undergo questioning when you're not well.

Don't worry. If it gets too hard for me,

I'll just grab my chest and collapse.

- What? / - Just kidding.

Can I help in any way?

I don't know.

They won't imprison you right away, will they?

I doubt that.

And if they do, there's nothing I can do about it.

Take care of yourself until you have to go in.

I'll try to think of something, too.

- Okay. Thanks, Big Brother. / - Wait.

Mira returned to the FB team.

She did?

Yes. She should be of help by your side.

You must've been shocked when you heard we were dating.

No, I totally understand.

I think you look good together.

Big Brother.

But keep it a secret from Mom and Dad.

They'll have a fit.

That's why I couldn't tell you either.

Why? You think they'll disapprove?

Why would they disapprove of someone like Mira?

All parents think their son is the best.

Anyway, this is a secret between us, okay?

Sure. I'm sure it will work out.

You've been transferred back to the FB team.

Pardon?

Go back to what you had been doing.

Yes, Sir. I will.

And

don't feel bad about me.

Be good to my brother.

That will make me feel better.

Yes, Sir.

Is he naive or stupid?

I heard you're back on the FB team?

- Yes. / - Good.

Come with me to the Prosecutors' Office tomorrow.

- Prosecutors' Office? / - I'm to undergo questioning.

It's nothing special, but I think

I'll be more at ease if you are next to me.

Please.

Not at all. This is my job now.

Good. Anyway, I'll see you tomorrow.

Legal department? I'm So Mira of the FB team...

Let the game begin.

Did you get the document?

Good work. Thanks.

No, not now. Go see him later.

Kim Jihyeok is with someone else right now.

I'm counting on you.

Thanks for coming. Shall we go?

What are you...

Dongseok is going in for questioning today.

We felt down, so we came to see you. Is that okay?

Sure, of course it is, but...

Please come in. Give me a minute.

Please have a seat here.

You should've let me known first.

This way.

Please have a seat.

Sure.

Don't worry too much about Dongseok.

He's smart, so he'll do fine.

Thanks. That makes me feel better.

We got you an outfit on our way here.

For me?

Try it on.

It fits well.

Let's see.

It looks better if you button it all the way.

Let's see now. It looks good on you.

Honey, how does our son look?

Good. It looks good on you.

I'm sorry, but I have nothing to bring out...

- Would you like some tea? / - No.

You haven't eaten yet, have you?

Let's go eat.

Yes. What do you want to eat?

I'm fine. Pick whatever you want.

No, let's go somewhere you want today.

What do you want to eat?

Me?

Sorry.

It's a bit run-down for you, isn't it?

No, I like it. You like it, don't you?

Yes, of course.

I'm fine as long as our Jihyeok likes it.

I really wanted to bring

my mother and father here.

This is what I envied most

after school orientations and graduations.

Going to Chinese restaurants with Mom and Dad

and getting black bean noodles and sweet and sour meat.

I see.

You must've been so envious, you poor thing.

It's okay. It was just for brief moments.

I wasn't heartbroken or anything.

I only said it because it came to mind.

Please eat.

Thank you

for being so good to someone like me.

No, compared to all you've suffered,

this is still not enough.

Not at all.

I think I had the wrong attitude.

For the last 30 years,

I was upset about the things I've lost.

I never thought about doing something for my parents.

From now on,

I'll repay you for everything you gave me.

We did exactly as you asked. Happy?

Good. Thanks.

That's plenty for bait.

- Was that the chairman? / - Yes.

It's time. Cast the bait.

- Yes, Mr. Do. / - We have a problem.

Kang Dongseok may be arrested after questioning.

What?

Our sources in the Prosecutors' Office say

they have the documents on the foreign contracts.

If that's true, he'll be imprisoned immediately.

What? That can't be.

I kept it for him somewhere nobody knew about.

Are you certain?

Mira.

The questioning may run late, so you should go.

I'll call you when I'm done.

No, I'll wait here.

I may not be able to come out.

What do you mean?

I thought you were just going in for questioning.

I'm just saying there's a risk, that's all.

That's absurd.

There's no way.

If I'm locked up,

one thing will nag at me.

What is it?

Not having heard your answer to my proposal.

I think that will hurt me the most.

Bye.

That's weird. I left it right here.

Mom, did you touch the document in this box?

Why would I touch it?

Then what happened to it?

He'll be imprisoned for sure, then. This is bad.

Why did Hyunsung suddenly appoint a new president?

It wasn't sudden.

It had been prepared for a while.

Jihyeok ran things for a while

before he became president.

He was only recently discovered as the long-lost son.

What could he have done in that time?

It hasn't been long since it became public.

So he was already working before then.

It's just that it wasn't in the media until recently.

Correct.

Anyway, our issue is

something that happened while you were the president.

You look serious now.

Would you like some tea?

Okay. How long until we get his arrest warrant?

Thank you.

We should have it in a few hours.

Arrest him as soon as we have it.

I'll end the questioning then.

Arrest him as soon as he walks out.

- Yes, Sir. / - Yes.

You contracted the construction in Guchang-dong, right?

Yes.

You know that's enough to arrest you.

I'll get to the point.

The contract is under your foreign branch,

but you went and signed the contract yourself.

Wait, no...

I did not do that.

The contract was for Hyunsung Market.

Who else, other than you, the president

could have signed such a large-scale contract?

You can't be telling us that a mere employee signed it.

Regardless,

- I did not do it. / - President Kang Dongseok!

We don't have the contract,

but we confirmed the money trail!

That's enough evidence! Do you understand?

Let's stop here.

You may go.

Here he comes!

A statement, please!

It may be difficult to arrest him once he goes home,

so pull him over after a short while and arrest him.

Yes, Sir.

- Yes? / - Delivery.

- Give it to him. / - Okay.

I'm from the Prosecutors' Office.

An arrest warrant for you has been issued.

- Yes, I'm... / - We received crucial information,

so hold off on the arrest.

Yes, Sir.

I'm sorry for the trouble. You may leave.

It makes no sense. Look at the timing.

It was while Kang Dongseok was president, so why...

It does make sense.

Kang Dongseok told us that

Kang Jihyeok was working there before he took office.

Our primary suspect is someone else.

I'm done. Where are you?

Yes, thank you. Yes.

He saw the document being delivered to the prosecutor.

Thank goodness!

I can finally breathe now.

Will you be okay?

Of course I will be.

You may be harmed.

This happened because I lost it.

I must take responsibility.

I hope the prosecutor believes

the one I signed is the original.

Don't worry.

Luckily, we had a copy.

It will be difficult to distinguish from the original.

But we had to say that the first document they had

was a forgery that you had created. Sorry, Sir.

That's fine.

As long as Dongseok isn't hurt, I'm fine.

Understood. Excuse me then.

Wait. But about this...

I wish that you won't tell the chairman and Dongseok.

Okay, Sir. I won't.

How did it go?

Game over.

It's a happy ending.

It all went well.

Really? Everything went well without a hitch?

You won't be arrested or anything?

No.

Thank goodness.

Are you still upset?

Let's not talk about that anymore.

When I saw you with Kim Jihyeok,

I felt my heart drop to my stomach.

But do you know what was more embarrassing?

I was more worried that my heart

would stop again.

That embarrassed me more.

Mira.

The reason I told you about your father

while knowing how much it would hurt you

was to bring you down to my level.

To make you as embarrassed as I was.

I'm still nervous

that you would leave me.

And that everything will stop.

Can't you put me at ease now?

Okay, I will.

Everything went as President Kang Dongseok planned.

That kid is so devious.

Your parents must be waiting for you. Why are we here?

We need to celebrate.

It was the most exciting day of my life.

Another glass, please.

- Is someone coming? / - Yes.

There he is. Big Brother!

How did it go? Did it go well?

Yes, thanks to you.

I didn't do anything.

So everything is okay?

It all went well.

And I have another piece of good news.

What is it?

Mira has

agreed to marry me.

Really?

Nice. Congratulations.

I wanted to tell you first

since I felt bad about keeping it from you before.

You don't need to feel bad.

And it would be weird for Mira not to have someone.

That's true.

But are you sure you didn't have feelings for her, too?

That's ridiculous. That's not even funny.

We're just president and employee.

Plus, we didn't even get along.

There was such a wide gap between us.

We couldn't even hold a decent conversation.

But I'm sure she listened to you.

That's because I was her boss.

What else could she do but do what her president says?

We were just president and employee.

We never crossed that line.

I never said you did. Why are you so flustered?

I am?

Anyway, you're saying you were president and employee.

Nothing more, nothing less.

Yes, of course.

Do you agree?

What do you want to hear from me?

I'm just kidding since he's so flustered.

And Big Brother, be nicer to my Mira from now on.

You two will be

family soon.

Of course.

I will.

Why are you drinking alone? Is something wrong?

You don't look well.

No.

I'm tired. It's been a tiring day.

True, a lot has happened today.

Let's drink, just you and I.

Sure.

Big Brother, get up.

You should go home.

He's a lightweight. I'm surprised.

Mr. President. Get up. Let's go.

- What? / - Get up.

You're super hot.

Sure. Let's go. Let's go!

What are you doing?

I told you that I'd pay him back generously.

Now, let's start our party for real.

Turn right.

- Go straight. / - Pardon? Straight?

We have to make a right to go to the hotel.

Where do you want to go?

To the market.

You're driving anyway, so drop me off there.

Pardon? But...

I won't make you give back the money,

so just go.

Okay.

Why aren't you drinking?

Mom.

I don't want to drink.

You? Don't want to drink?

That's a first.

What's wrong?

I'm just sad.

Sickeningly sad.

Do you want me to drink that for you?

Mom.

What should I do?

You should wait.

Wait until she accepts you.

Yes, I'm Hedgey. Hedgey!

I can't be sad over some girl.

Right, Mom?

Right.

It's because it's my first time.

I was caught off-guard.

It's nothing, but I just feel sad for no reason.

Right, Mom?

No.

That's true sadness.

I can't fool you, Mom.

I feel like I can breathe again!

I think I can drink again.

Pour me a glass.

I remember

When the persimmons grow

I remember my mom

My mom gave me her heart

rather than sing me a lullaby

I remember my mom

She worried I'd get wet in the snow

She worried I'd get wet in the rain

She worried I'd fall down in this harsh world

She worried I'd be hurt because of love

I remember

When the persimmons grow

I remember my mom

She said

I was an apple to her eyes

I remember my mom

Compare it to last year's numbers.

If you'd leave me your number...

I was nervous.

Then I said...

I was so nervous...

My parents keep nagging.

Listen up! Everyone stop what you're doing!

We're going out. It's a company outing!

Let's quit for the day and go eat. My treat!

You mean, right now?

Yes, right now!

- Cheers! / - Cheers!

Here's to our half-day of working

and afternoon of inebriation!

And to our best president ever!

- Bottoms up! / - Bottoms up!

Everyone, bottoms up! Empty your glasses!

That's nice.

Did something happen today?

No. We never properly celebrated the Zaroque deal.

Especially you and Mr. Choi

went through a lot because of me.

You're acting strange, like you're leaving us.

Leaving? Then our company would be done for.

Nonsense! I haven't done anything.

As Mr. Gu said, I always made a mess.

You took that to heart, didn't you?

Here.

What happened to the DNA test I asked for?

I told you it's urgent!

How dare you ignore me? Do you want to die?

What?

Fine. Get it done by then.

It's very important.

The rest of my life depends on it.

It will either be heaven

or hell.

Isn't it nice here?

I always feel good whenever I come here.

It's nice. It's lively.

This market saved me.

Until I met my real family,

these people were my family

and this was my home.

And that's why I'm saying this.

If anything were to happen to me,

please take care of this market and the people.

They were critical in getting the market deal through.

They all made a sacrifice for me.

I don't want anything else.

Just take good care of these people.

Don't worry, I'll take good care of them for you.

Thanks, Dongseok!

Hey, you said brothers don't need to thank each other.

Oh, did I?

Sorry about that.

Now you're saying, "Sorry"?

What's with me? I'm the one who said it.

It's because I'm so dumb.

At least you're healthy.

I wish I could give you my body right now.

That's genuinely how I feel.

Thanks for the thought.

Hold on.

You came all the way here.

Side dish Mom! What's good today?

Pack some up. Everything!

Wait here, okay?

I got you soy sauce beans and spicy squid.

Thanks.

And here.

You keep this.

What is this?

It's the silver medal I won

in a national competition in high school.

Why are you giving this to me?

It's the only thing I can brag about.

Think of me when you look at it.

Okay. Bye.

- Get home safely. / - Okay.

Now I feel better.

Thanks for today, Dongseok.

Where do I start?

It's so easy.

Kang Jina, is there anything you can't do?

Why is it so dark? Is there a power outage?

Hey, Jina!

Jina!

Next, a toast for Kang Jina.

Hey, raise your glass.

What's with the look?

You want a love shot? Fine.

If you want to do it that badly.

Drink.

Psycho.

Eat up.

How do I eat this?

Why aren't you eating?

I'm full from just watching you eat.

What's gotten into you today?

- It's my birthday. / - Your birthday is in winter.

I told you I've been reborn.

Then that day should've been your birthday.

I was like, in Mom's womb then.

I entered the world today.

You're so crazy.

What are you doing?

Sing for me.

Hey, Jina. If you want to go crazy, do it alone.

Don't try to make me into a weirdo too.

Can't you just go crazy with me?

Just for today.

Please, Big Brother?

Big Brother?

Fine. Okay.

Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday to you, dear Sister

- Happy? / - I don't like the "dear Sister" part.

Change it to "Dear Kang Jina."

- You called me "Brother". / - It's up to me. Do it!

I'm going to lose my mind.

Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday to you, dear Kang Jina

What am I doing?

Drink.

Let's drink ourselves to death tonight.

What if Father and Mother come home?

They went to Jejudo for a seminar. No one is home.

What? What about Dongseok?

I asked him to stay at a hotel so I can have a party.

Hey, so...

It's just you and I alone in this house.

Don't I look pretty today?

Why are you doing this to me?

Are you afraid? Big Brother.

You! Gosh!

Get off!

You're not my brother, are you?

You can't be.

I'm right.

I read through the document all night.

If this is true, you'll be heavily punished.

Why were you so careless with the document?

A thought went through my head at that moment.

Puppet president.

Yes, the two people you asked to run the test on

aren't related at all. Not in the slightest.

I knew it.

But why did they appoint you as their puppet president?

Why their son? And their eldest son, at that?

I just don't get it. Why did they do that?

Was there a deal made?

For money perhaps?

What a piece of trash.

Was that directed at me?

Do you make deals with your family?

Would you cuff your father for money?

You're coming off strong.

Do you want to see who's stronger?

Let's see whose skull cracks open first.

Who picks part-timers on grades instead of looks?

I'm so tired from walking all day.

I want meat.

Squid?

Squid!

Excuse me. One more order, please. Just one.

I just don't get it.

You borrowed money from me to buy stuff,

but I didn't have enough so you couldn't get the squid.

So how do I owe you?

Money is irrelevant.

The person's heart is what matters.

You deprived me of my squid which I longed for.

So, you owe me.

Fine. I'll buy you squid.

That's much cheaper than meat.

I don't want squid right now.

There will come a day when I really want squid.

Buy it for me then.

You owe me squid again.

- What a lunatic. / - Look who's here?

It's Hedgey's eternal sidekick, Lee Daeseop!

Hey, there.

You should greet your elders, jerk.

That jerk.

She's as thin as a model,

but she eats like a pig. Goodness.

I'm ruined. What do I do?

I heard Hedgey is probably going to prison.

But he's been living in luxury.

True. I wish I could live as a corporate heir.

Me too.

What's so good about being lied to like that?

- It's better to live in peace here. / - Lied to?

President Kang Jihyeok of Hyunsung Distributions

will soon be released after questioning.

President Kang will speak with the press

regarding his feelings about the investigation.

Isn't our job done once he goes to prison?

Really?

Then you'll have to pay more than what was agreed upon.

Yes, I understand. Thank you.

This jerk thinks I work for him.

He keeps ordering me around.

I recorded this too, so save it onto the computer.

Yes, Boss.

Don't you dare mess with me.

I'll release the recordings and we can die together.

Hey, Jina.

I kept telling you that you aren't my brother.

Look at this.

I'm sorry, but we're not family.

No, it's one or the other.

Either I'm not my mom's daughter, or you're a fake.

What are you talking about?

- Look at this! / - Fine. I will.

I'm busy right now, so let's talk later.

- Hey! / - Let's talk later.

Hey! Listen to me, you idiot!

You're a fake!

- What? / - Jihyeok.

- I'm at Beomsik's office. / - What?

He saved his calls with someone on his computer.

I just heard it and...

Jiseok, listen carefully.

The reason that family took you in...

I'll call you back.

Hello?

What are you doing?

- Lee Daeseop? / - Hey, about before...

- I didn't greet you properly... / - You jerk.

Gosh!

Stop right there!

Stop!

Listen to me, you idiot! You're a fake!

Here he comes!

A statement, please.

I'm President Kang Jihyeok of Hyunsung Distributions.

All the charges

the prosecution has made against me...

Things are finally back to normal, don't you think?

You know what this family means to me!

Please tell me it isn't true!

The one I gave you is a fake.

Beat Kim Jihyeok until he's just short of dying.

We made that jerk family because of my wretched heart!

Would you be satisfied if they are all in prison?

Mr. President! Wait!

Will you trust me if I do what you wanted?

I'll kill you all.

Because I know I'll lose in the end.
