Jung Woo. You eat, too. Let's eat.

Yes, sir.

I didn't get the surgery.

I'll have the baby.

Our baby...

that's inside of me.

What is Da Jung saying?

Is this true?

Yes.

You'll really have this baby?

I know.

That I'm totally baffled and unbelievable right now.

Yes, as you just said...

I'm so baffled that I'm speechless.

Let's hear it first.

Why are you so baffled right now?

As you said, Ahjussi.

If Mom had chosen to terminate her pregnancy...

then I wouldn't be here.

The choice my mom made...

I want that, too.

[ Episode 6: Family Scandal ]

Stop trembling.

You'd think we had an earthquake.

Sorry.

It's a habit.

Why?

Are you scared?

No.

Why would I be scared?

I'm the one who said to keep the baby.

When you said that...

it's not because you wanted to.

You just felt very bad for me.

I tried to get rid of the baby because...

you're about to make your debut, and I felt bad.

Why should you feel bad?

I'm the one who's sorry.

No matter what we decide...

let's not feel bad toward each other.

Honestly...

I want to have this baby.

But this isn't for me to decide alone.

If you're not willing,

I don't want to have it for my selfish reasons.

What do you want to do, Oppa?

She's a student, unemployed, and has multiple siblings.

They can't even take care of themselves yet wants the baby?

This is not reckless, it's just plain rude!

For both of their lives and mine!

Sunbae, I know this puts you in a bind.

But consider how Da Jung feels.

From her standpoint, having an abortion is like denying her own existence.

Don't spew abstract statements.

I know one thing for sure.

What's that?

Having a baby is denying her own reality.

I have the responsibility to get them to realize it.

We're the adults here!

Abortion?

Didn't you say it was immoral?

Hey, that's...

I personally don't think it's immoral.

That's what I'm saying.

How can all abortions be immoral?

In many cases, it's a bad idea for all parties involved.

So for all women deciding on an abortion...

should be respected as such.

- I agree.- But...

same goes for deciding to have the baby.

Da Jung may be minor, but she's wise.

Da Jung's decision...

We should respect it.

Jung Soo Hyun.

If Da Jung were your sister, you'd still allow it?

Having a baby.

At least...

I wouldn't enforce my disapproval like you.

We'd worry over it together,

and share the pain together.

Hey, I reached this decision after deliberating.

Emotions do not solve problems.

Father.

We finished talking things over.

Then you made a decision.

If you have the baby, say goodbye to your dreams and the future.

You'll be entering a pitch dark tunnel.

But Da Jung...

went in that tunnel alone today.

What do you mean?

The operating room.

From now on...

I won't send her off alone.

Father.

I'm truly sorry, but...

we've...

decided to have the baby.

You're an idol trainee.

Are you giving up your debut?

That's...

not for me to decide alone.

I need to discuss it with my CEO and the other members.

And your parents?

Do they know about this?

No.

They're not in Korea.

They emigrated to Canada.

I understand.

Go on home.

Yes.

Will you be okay by yourself?

Of course, I'll be okay.

Parents always give in to their children.

Daebak, this is unbelievable.

How could she decide to have the baby?

I understand how Da Jung feels.

You do?

Everyone has one thing they can't let go of.

For Da Jung, it's her mom.

And she wants to take after her.

Unni, do you have one, too?

Something you can't let go of.

I understand how you feel. I understand.

I do, but...

think it over for a few more days.

What decision would be best for you and Jung Woo's future.

I'm not sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing, but...

I...

don't ever look back on my decisions.

Thinking it over for a few more days...

won't change my mind.

That Jung Woo.

He's been a trainee for three years.

Your decision...

is canceling out those three years. You know that?

That's why I had decided to get an abortion.

So I won't hinder him.

So what happened?

As I was lying on the operation table...

I realized those were all excuses.

It wasn't about being a hindrance to Oppa...

but I was consumed by fear.

Mom said this to me before she passed away.

That having me...

was the best decision she's ever made.

I don't know if I can follow in her footsteps...

but I know I won't regret my decision.

I think you've forgotten.

We have a contract.

This is a violation of our contract.

Do you understand?

Yes, I know.

My siblings and I are crashing at your place,

and now I'm having a baby, too.

It's shameless.

If you know that, why are you doing this? Huh?

I know, but...

I really can't...

bring myself to get rid of it.

I'm sorry.

I mean it.

This isn't something an apology and tears will take care of.

As your guardian, I can't allow this.

No way.

You're right.

I shouldn't be crying over something like this.

There will be more difficulties while raising my child.

Oppa, are you really okay?

Of course I am.

My CEO is a nice man.

He'll understand when I tell him.

What if he doesn't?

You know.

I was struggling because being an idol didn't suit me.

I'll be a dad instead of an idol.

I feel bad because I think I'm ruining your future.

Then should we think this over for a few more days?

Should we reconsider?

You're the most precious person to me.

What scares me the most...

is that you'll regret ever meeting me.

Us getting together and the decision we made today.

I'll make sure you won't regret it.

To sum everything up, this is the current status.

Da Jung has no idea she's not your biological daughter,

and no one knows that you two have a contract.

But Da Jung goes and gets herself pregnant.

And even worse,

she announced that she'll have the baby.

And you're...

trying to convince Da Jung to have an abortion.

But in front of the entire nation,

you made a fuss saying abortions are immoral.

This is amazingly exciting.

Is this fun for you?

Huh? Is it fun?

So what will you do?

Hey.

If she really has this baby,

people will focus on us even more.

Forget the contract, I'll be stuck permanently.

I'll be taking care of the four siblings and Da Jung's baby for life.

No way.

Over my dead body, no way.

What if she insists on having the baby?

If she insists?

The way of the world isn't so easy.

Da Jung won't be having this baby, so don't worry about it.

What's going with the rental apartments?

Most of the market retailers are siding with the rental apartments.

Right?

You must be the king of "dissonance..."

Hey.

It's not "dissonance," it's "internal dissonance."

Repeat after me. "Internal dissonance."

- "Internal dissonance." - Yeah, that's it.

Now you got it.

Anyway, Kang Kyung Hoon will be at the international high school protest tomorrow.

Really?

Then let's give him the VIP treatment.

Hey, guys.

How are the bean sprouts?

I made it for the first time, so I'm not sure if it's good.

It's no good!

It's really salty.

Really?

No, it's delicious.

Right, Song Yi?

Yes, it's yummy.

Came right out of the sea.

It's impolite to complain.

In front of the cook.

What gives? You're taking my side.

But it's true.

Cooking for a family is no laughing matter.

You're right.

All the dishes here require a lot of work.

Eat up.

I think all mothers are admirable.

They cook every day, make rice, clean,

do the laundry, and look after the kids.

They never get a break, never.

When they're babies, you can't communicate, and they poop all day.

When they get bigger, they're ungrateful and start acting out.

Plus, do you know how much it costs to raise a kid?

From birth to college graduation,

it'll cost 300 million won.

Aigoo, I wish they came with money.

Thank you for the meal.

Da Jung, you should eat more before you go...

Aigoo, seriously...

You should let her eat in peace.

Let her be.

By the way,

I hear this week's "People's Assembly Hall" deals with housing issues.

How did you know?

Ms. An called me yesterday.

I'll propose this week's bill.

Did you have something in mind?

Yes, I do.

I'm very keen on young people's housing welfare.

Yes, yes, thank you for your help.

In order to revive the market,

we'll have to be more vocal, right?

Aigoo, of course.

We'll see you later at City Hall.

- Yes, ma'am.- We have faith in you.

Yes, yes, yes, yes. Have a good day.

Yes, yes, please get going.

Yes.

Mr. Jung!

Aigoo, Chairman. What brings you by so early?

Oh, you want chicken for your hangover?

You have the nerve to stab me in the back.

Stab you in the back?

I hear you're going around

persuading all the market's retailers to support the rental apartments.

Chairman, that's not it...

I'm speechless.

Who do you think keeps this market in business?

Aigoo, really.

The ignorant folks are always like this.

You have no principles at all.

Chairman, you're being too harsh.

We're educated well enough, too.

All the owners here are educated enough.

Just because I run a chicken joint,

you shouldn't look down on me.

That's enough.

Let's see how well your business does.

I'll post on mom's cafe about this place.

Hey, hey, Chairman...

- Chairman...- Hey!

- Are you talking to me?- Yeah.

You see anyone else there?

What the...

How dare you speak down on me?

No.

- Mi Sook, please don't.- Move your hand.

Calm down.

Use your words. No hitting, okay?

Even if...

there are no customers,

we all work from early mornings to late at night.

You should be helping people like us.

You shouldn't go around spreading ridiculous rumors!

Give me a break.

You folks are the ones spreading ridiculous rumors.

Oh, yeah?

Let's duke it out

and see who's more ridiculous.

I'll stay here, so don't worry about the store.

Go to the protest and show that woman who's the boss.

- Really?- Yeah.

Okay!

Let's see who wins, you hear?

Unni, here.

Thank you.

One of my acquaintances...

is pregnant, but still single.

Who is it?

Is it someone I know?

No, you don't know her.

And?

And...

she says she'll have the baby, but...

I'm torn if I should be stopping her or not.

- How old is she?- Huh?

Well...

she's still in college.

Whoa.

What are you torn about? You should stop her at all costs.

She couldn't get a job. How will she raise the baby?

Does her family own a building in Gangnam or something?

Building, my foot.

Aigoo...

You look distressed.

Attorney Kang.

What brings you by...

I was in the area and came to cheer you on.

Attorney Kang, what's that you're holding?

Please make me look good on TV.

- Bribing you with spicy rice cakes. - Daebak.

Actually, I was just about to call you.

I guess this week's topic is out?

Yes.

Assemblyman Wie is in charge of that this week.

What is it?

Probably the expansion of rental apartments for the communities.

I like that.

I had wanted to debate regarding that issue.

[ No international high school! / No apartments! ]

Pooreun Rental Apartments will ruin Central City!

Central City will be ruined!

Central City will be ruined!

Supporting young people will revive Central City!

Revive! Revive!

We'll revive!

For Central City's advancement, an international high school is the answer!

International high school!

International high school!

2,000 new residents

mean 2,000 more for the market!

2,000 more! 2,000 more!

2,000 more! 2,000 more!

Everyone, everyone.

Assemblyman Kang Kyung Hoon is here to support

the international-high school!

We'll now hear from Assemblyman Kang!

- Kang Kyung Hoon!- Hello, everyone.

I'm Kang Kyung Hoon, the son of Inju City!

I'll just make a brief statement.

Rental apartments for young people?

Yes, it's necessary.

However, there is an order to everything, isn't there?

That's right!

There is a reason for the saying,

"One's environment makes the man."

The best area for raising your children is

an area with excellent schools!

That's right!

Let's bring in the international high school

and make Central City an enviable place

for all the best mothers out there!

Please stay strong!

Kang Kyung Hoon!

International high school!

Kang Kyung Hoon!

International high school!

Hello!

I'm Wie Dae Han.

Wie Dae Han!

Wie Dae Han!

Wie Dae Han!

Wie Dae Han!

Wie Dae Han!

Wie Dae Han!

Everyone!

Let's say an international high school gets built,

and all the best moms move to Central City.

But even the smartest kid

would not be able to attend this international high school.

Do you know why?

Because tuition is astronomically expensive!

Everyone, he's right!

To attend this high school,

the tuition will be more than 10 million won!

Who here is able to send their kids

to that international high school?

Not us!

An international high school

will only promote discord among the residents,

and incite private education.

However, the rental apartments

will infuse hope to

the young people who are struggling in this day and age!

And their energy will

transform Central City into a town overflowing with vitality!

That's right!

Wie Dae Han is an unbeatable speaker.

Not even the greatest scholars.

Central City will revive!

Everyone, everyone!

Have you already forgotten what this man here has done?

He left his own father to kill himself at a study dorm.

She's right!

It's true.

That's in the past. Why bring it up again?

Aigoo, he even abandoned his own father.

Would he take care of the young people?

Even a dog would laugh at this, everyone.

Will you be all right?

- If you can't, I'll just...- I'm fine.

Everyone.

Everyone.

Everyone!

Yes.

I am...

a "sinner."

I hated my father,

so I had looked the other way.

But everyone,

a "sinner" is still a human being.

I regret my wrongdoings,

and I'm paying my repentance.

After my father passed away,

I only realized this after I went to the

study dorm to gather his belongings.

Even though I was a bad son,

[ Assemblyman Wie Dae Han ]

he was still proud of me.

During my three-step pilgrimage,

I made a promise to my father.

That I'll conduct politics on behalf of people like him.

That I'll be a son he can be proud of!

This is why I'm standing right here.

They may be of a different generation from my father,

but just as he did...

they're suffering in various study dorms!

I want to be on the young people's side, everyone!

That's right!

Wie Dae Han!

Wie Dae Han!

Wie Dae Han!

Wie Dae Han!

Wie Dae Han!

Wie Dae Han!

Wie Dae Han!

Wie Dae Han!

I wasn't aware Wie Dae Han would be leading the opposing protest.

My apologies.

We'll check things more meticulously going forward.

Trust is like that.

It's hard to earn, but easy to lose.

I'll keep that in mind.

However, we now have a new card.

Card?

Someone tailing Wie Dae Han sent over an interesting photo.

That looks like Wie Dae Han's daughter.

Yes. Go on to the next one.

We did some checking, and she's 11 weeks pregnant.

Even though he stated that abortions are immoral,

I don't think he'll let her have the baby.

Interesting.

Kang Kyung Hoon.

He's no ordinary man.

He didn't even blink an eye.

The stronger the foe, the more I can shine.

Since we have the upper hand,

let's keep pushing.

Yes, of course.

You don't have plans later, right?

Tonight?

Why?

Chairman Baek wants to have dinner.

I see.

Okay.

If the party's chairman is taking note,

you've passed through the ring of fire.

Too early to be resting on my laurels.

The general election is still far away.

That's true.

Who knows what unexpected events may occur.

There's Da Jung's issue, too.

That will be resolved today.

She ditches school,

and sleeps all day long.

What a life.

Honestly...

I want to have this baby.

What do you want to do, Oppa?

Jung Woo, CEO is asking for you.

Come in.

Hey.

All right, then.

Thank you for your time today.

You're the busy one, not me.

Let's play golf sometime. I'm happy to have met you.

Your CEO is very cool, you're blessed.

If you do as he says, you'll strike it big.

- Okay, then.- I'll see you out.

Your debut is two months away.

Are you out of your mind?

I'm sorry.

Don't argue with me.

I'll make the appointment. Get her an abortion tomorrow.

Get it done...

and get rid of the girl, too.

I...

can't do that.

This punk, are you crazy?

I feel terrible toward you and the other members.

But I want to protect Da Jung and the baby.

How noble you are.

This blame falls 100% on you.

Pay up three times the contract cancellation fee,

and leave the group.

I hear "Dispute" will be covering the issue of the rental apartment.

Wow...

Just who is your informant?

You know everything.

Geez...

You must do well.

Kang Joon Ho is not to be taken lightly.

He's more difficult to deal with than Kang Kyung Hoon.

Those wealthy kids have no chance against me.

They're only ritzy on the outside, but weaklings inside.

Hello, sir.

Assemblyman Wie.

How long has it been?

I think being a dad suits him.

Thank you.

Chairman, you're looking great.

You must've found the fountain of youth.

Is that right?

Even if they're empty words, it's still nice.

- Okay, have a seat.- Yes, sir.

We have high expectations, Assemblyman Wie.

Our party is lacking a star these days.

Yes.

I'll do my best to meet your expectations.

Good.

Let me pour you a shot.

Mayor Jung, give him your full support.

Yes, sir.

I want our party to take over Central City.

Of course, we should.

Assemblyman Kang has overstayed his welcome.

The rumor that Kang Kyung Hoon's son will run in the general election.

It's all over Yeouido.

Yes, he said so himself.

He's thinking over the general election.

Thinking over means that he'll be running.

If he runs, this paints a fun picture.

It'll be "The Nation's Son..."

versus "The Nation's Dad."

This district will be the hottest topic in the next general election.

If we gain the upper hand here,

we'll shift the presidential election as well.

I'll do my best. Yes.

Mother.

Thank you.

Don't ask Hye Jin to come and go as you please.

She's a busy girl.

I didn't ask her to.

Hye Jin, did I do that?

No.

I come over to see you, Mother.

Going to restaurants and shopping with you

is more fun than hanging out with my friends.

Did you hear that?

Hye Jin and I get along so well. Don't you know?

Since I live with two such boring and stoic men,

I'm so envious of people who have daughters.

After we got close,

all of my envy disappeared.

Let's not delay any more.

Set the date for this year.

That's right.

A man needs his own family to achieve great things.

Hye Jin is a suitable candidate for your wife.

I've already told you.

Hye Jin is like a sister to me.

Since you're already close, you just need a wedding.

Isn't that right?

There is someone I like.

Who?

Well, I don't want to tell anyone yet.

If you'll discuss marriage, don't call Hye Jin over.

It's rude.

It's not rude.

I come over on my own will.

But I am curious about the person you have feelings for.

He's not answering the phone,

and not answering my texts.

Oppa has never been like this...

I'm a little worried.

Men are like that.

If they're disturbed about something, they go into a cave.

If you wait, he'll come back out.

Unni...

Don't I seem pathetic to you?

Well,

not quite pathetic.

Truthfully,

you do seem thoughtless.

So why aren't you stopping me?

If I do, will you listen to me?

No.

Sunbae will try to stop you.

I'll just stay by your side.

You can lean on me when going gets tough.

Since the man upstairs took my mom early...

I think he sent me to you.

Hey!

You're pregnant?

Yes, I understand.

What grade is your daughter in?

She's a junior in high school.

Why are you mentioning Da Jung...

An article...

stating she's pregnant just popped up.

My God, holy moly...

How could something like this happen?

And the baby's dad is an idol trainee.

From what I saw on TV, she looks boy-crazy.

We don't know if this is true.

It's from the gossip pages of Wall Street News.

I'm sure they're gossiping for a reason.

Wie Dae Han stated on TV that he thinks abortions are immoral.

What will happen now?

To abide by the law, she must have the baby.

This means Wie Dae Han will be a grandfather?

Grandpa Wie Dae Han.

Please stop.

What? What did I do?

If the article is correct, a family is about to be shattered.

Is it something to laugh about?

Leaking this gossip piece...

Was it you?

Yes.

We must pay back for what you had to go through today.

Did you confirm on the abortion?

Well, not yet...

You'll have the rice before it's fully cooked?

I think I expected too much from you.

Can I talk to you for a minute?

Go on home.

Yes, sir.

The article...

It was you, right?

Yes.

I found out about it by chance.

I released it for the good of the public.

But it's a personal matter.

What does it have to do with the public?

It's important info to judge a particular politician's character.

Of course, people should know.

Must you really resort to this?

If I can win,

I would do something even worse than this.

This is the way I learned and conducted politics.

Because you conduct yourself this way...

the citizens detest politicians.

Anyone can...

be critical of others.

If you don't like my style, then do it yourself.

Stop the lecturing,

and show them what a "healthy conservatism" should be!

The world has changed,

but you're still the same as you were...

20 years ago.

You're such a weakling.

Even if it's not true,

there's no point in hearing any nonsense.

Yes. I'll take care of it.

Let's go.

It's really not true?

The gossip column makes up stories every day.

You keep your kids in check.

If a politician's kids get in trouble,

they don't criticize the kid.

They criticize the politician instead.

"The Nation's Dad" could spiral down in an instant.

Aigoo, I know that.

I used to be the "Nation's Sinner" until recently.

Aigoo.

This is why gossip column is deemed trashy.

It's a complete fabrication.

Aigoo, don't worry.

She's a junior in high school.

It's not possible for her to be pregnant.

Aigoo, it's an error, an error.

Reporter Heo, what's the matter with you?

Aigoo, really.

Unless you pull the article, I'll press charges for falsification and defamation.

Don't say I didn't warn you, okay?

I'm not screaming at you...

Reporter Heo. Reporter Heo?

Reporter...

You bastard!

Darn it.

What will you do?

What do you mean, what will I do?

I'll deny it,

and get her an abortion discreetly.

It'll be difficult to be discreet at this point.

Kang Kyung Hoon's paparazzi could be trailing you.

Since it turned out this way, why not just keep the baby?

What, punk?

You have four already, one more won't hurt...

Are you out of your mind? Huh?

If the word gets out about Da Jung's abortion,

it'll destroy your "Nation's Dad" image.

During the broadcast,

you were gung-ho insisting on the immorality of abortions.

Even so, never.

Taking in these orphans was for a mutual win-win,

and because I can handle it.

Having a baby is entirely different.

Hey, having a baby when you're not ready

means a rocky road for both the parents and the baby.

I'll never allow it.

No way.

The siblings will now have a nephew? How sad.

If it were me, I'd be too embarrassed to go outside.

Then Wie Dae Han will be a grandpa?

Speeding violation runs in the family.

I knew the moment his daughter came out on TV.

She has a reputation at her school for being bad.

Aigoo, pimping out his daughter for politics.

Look at him now.

Can we talk?

Okay.

Tak must've read the article.

Yes.

He's a quick one, so I told him the truth.

Make sure he doesn't say anything.

If anyone asks, deny it.

That may work for now...

but what about later?

Later?

When I start showing.

Let's wait a few days,

then get your surgery.

I'm really sorry...

but I won't.

I met with Jung Woo's agency CEO earlier.

If he doesn't get rid of the baby, he'll ask for thrice the amount spent on him,

for breach of contract. It'll be over 100 million won.

Doing this to us...

Isn't it cruel?

No.

Contracts are usually like this.

At first, it's good. But when it's broken...

one of the parties gets ripped to shreds.

What a relief.

That Mom didn't live with someone like you.

♫ Please talk to me today ♫

♫ Please talk when you want to ♫

♫ I say these words to you ♫

Why weren't you answering the phone?

Sorry, sorry.

Today was really hectic.

Were you worried?

Of course, I was.

Is everything okay?

Of course.

Don't lie to me.

Ahjussi said he told your CEO everything.

Thanks to Father, it worked out for the better.

Truthfully, I wasn't sure how I should spill it.

Don't you have to pay the penalty?

Oh...

I had a hard time convincing the CEO,

but it worked out okay.

Don't you worry about me.

Get some good sleep.

You're carrying a baby.

Oh, right.

Those comments after the article...

Don't ever read them.

It's not good for you.

♫ For you're leaving me now ♫

- Look at her.- I think she is pregnant.

It's true, it's true.

- She is pregnant.- Her stomach.

The pregnant girl.

- It's her.- Yup, that's the girl.

Lucky you.

You're famous now.

Shut it.

Why did you do...

- That's her.- Yeah, it's true.

Forget it.

She was acting so pure and innocent,

but she was being dirty behind our backs.

- I know.- Totally.

Aren't you curious who the baby's dad is?

He's an idol trainee.

Not all trainees are the same.

I'm positive he's a troublemaker.

- I'm sure.- She's coming.

She's here.

Hey, can you tell?

[ Reserved for Pregnant Women ]

I can't ask him straight out if the gossip columns are true.

Man, today is the broadcast. I'm going nuts.

Assemblyman Wie told the reporters it's not true.

Let's believe Assemblyman Wie.

Of course, he would deny it.

I'd say the same thing.

Ms. Jung, you're close with Assemblyman Wie.

Do you know anything?

You know, we're not that close.

Unni.

It's true, huh?

What?

The pregnant girl you mentioned before.

It's Da Jung, huh?

What on earth?

Then it's true?

Geez, it's not, so please stop.

Let's just focus on our work.

Our work, okay?

There's even an article. What will you do?

They're all speculations.

They have no way of knowing if she's really pregnant.

They have no access to her patient records.

And?

What do you mean? I'll deny it.

Until when?

Da Jung insists on keeping it.

Maybe the article will wake her up.

What's that supposed to mean?

You know how people treat pregnant high school girls.

After experiencing it firsthand, she'll give up.

I agree with Dae Han oppa.

Why?

You can always have a baby again.

But once she becomes a mom,

what about her youth?

What about her 20s?

There is no "next time" for those.

[ Attorney Kang Joon Ho ]

Yes, Attorney Kang.

How about night fishing this weekend?

Why night fishing all of a sudden?

I think you could use some cheering up.

Geez, you can read people's minds?

Because of Dae Han's article.

I'm sorry about Dae Han...

but I'm more worried about you.

One of my acquaintances...

is pregnant, but still single.

What are you torn about?

You should stop her at all costs.

Aigoo...

If the article is true,

and you know about this...

you'd feel very disturbed.

I feel disturbed as well.

Let's go together.

Night fishing is the best cure for the blues.

I guess some stories do start out of nowhere.

How can Da Jung be pregnant?

Aigoo, I'm speechless, really.

I know.

She looks so nice and smart.

- Doesn't she?- Yes.

But this rumor is all over the town.

What rumor?

That she's pregnant,

and she already had an abortion.

Who keeps spreading that nonsense?

It's Jae Yoon's mom, right?

Hey, it doesn't matter who started it.

Rumors get everyone talking.

Truthfully, the market retailers are talking, too.

"How can we trust someone who lied on TV?"

Father, you too...

No, not me. The people here.

Geez, even the water is lukewarm...

Yes, CEO Kwon.

They're calling him "Mr. C" for now,

but they'll find out soon.

The reporters these days are like the CIA.

But he was with you for three years. You kick him out just like that?

What else can I do?

If Jung Woo's identity is revealed,

it'll be problematic whether he has the baby or not.

The other members need to survive.

Okay, fine.

Why did you want to meet today?

Since Jung Woo is no longer with our agency,

we could care less if your daughter

has the baby or not.

But please ask your daughter to keep quiet.

Pardon?

I mean...

keep quiet about what?

Just because Jung Woo left the group,

she might diss us to the media.

If this becomes a mud fight,

it won't be good for you, either.

I understand. Then...

since you fired Jung Woo, there's no penalty, correct?

Assemblyman Wie.

Do you think idol agencies subsist on dirt and air?

If this was the good old days,

he would've been maimed for sure.

Hey!

I used to be an assemblyman.

How dare you pull that bulls***?

My apologies.

Where is Jung Woo right now?

I've never worked in a warehouse.

But I danced eight hours every day for three years.

My lower body strength is no joke.

If you hire me, I'll work every day and every night, too.

Yes.

Father...

What are you doing here?

Come out.

Let's talk.

When will you pay off the penalty working part-time?

I'll have to pay it off slowly.

He knows I have nothing.

What would the CEO do?

Must be nice to have nothing.

Please keep this a secret from Da Jung.

If she finds out what happened,

she'll feel terrible.

I'll wait for the perfect timing and tell her.

And the baby?

We'll have it.

You'll have a baby in this state?

I was torn because I felt bad toward the CEO and the members.

But I feel so relieved now.

I had wanted to pursue music,

and not necessarily be an idol.

You said your parents emigrated due to a failed business.

Even double-income married couples with parents fear having kids.

You guys have some nerve.

I'm not sure.

What nerve...

- Aigoo...- But...

after going through this,

I realized one thing for sure.

About what?

That...

I can't live without Da Jung.

I want to spend my life with Da Jung.

Even if it weren't now,

we would have a baby someday.

I started thinking that things sped up a bit.

It strengthened my resolve.

Are you eating your meals?

Huh?

Come over for dinner later. We'll eat together.

Then...

we have your approval?

You're unemployed,

and in debt for over 100 million won.

Let my teenage daughter have a baby?

If you were in my shoes, would you?

Your debut is two months away.

Is it okay for you to be out?

CEO gave me the day off.

He told me to get some air.

Is everything really okay?

Of course, it is.

Hyung, sleep over tonight.

Tae Poong and Song Yi.

Only if you finish your rice.

All right!

I'm excited!

How can you smile right now?

Why not?

You really don't know?

If I were older than you, you'd be dead.

See me for a second.

I guess Tak knows.

Oppa, do you...

still feel the same way?

You're unemployed,

and in debt for over a 100 million won.

Let my teenage daughter have a baby?

If you were in my shoes, would you?

Yes.

One hundred percent.

I'm on my way to the TV station.

You're discussing the rental apartments today, right?

Yes.

Chairman Baek will also be watching.

You must do well.

Yes, I must.

It's my golden opportunity.

Come on, who believes gossip columns?

We didn't pay attention at all.

Aigoo, Producer Koo, you're firm in your conviction.

You're totally my style.

I knew it the moment we first met.

They shouldn't weave such stories, huh?

Your daughter seems like a good student.

Pregnancy would be a complete joke.

Yes, thank you.

I know.

It's absurd, isn't it?

Since I'm hot now, all these stories are coming out.

Sunbae, you're proposing the bill today. You're prepared, right?

Of course.

I'm personally interested in the rental apartments.

I'm worried about Attorney Kang here.

You are?

I was worried about you, Assemblyman Wie.

Why worry about me?

I don't believe gossip columns either.

But if it's true, you'd be at a loss.

I worried if you'd be adequately prepared.

Seriously...

This is the case of

the cat being considerate of the mouse.

Let's do well today for the live broadcast.

Thank you in advance.

I don't mean to be a nag,

but don't even breathe a word relating to "pregnancy" on air.

Of course not.

As you said, Ahjussi.

If Mom had chosen to terminate her pregnancy...

I wouldn't be here.

From her standpoint,

having an abortion is like denying her own existence.

If the word gets out about Da Jung's abortion,

it'll destroy your "Nation's Dad" image.

Even if it weren't now,

we would have a baby someday.

I started thinking that things sped up a bit.

It strengthened my resolve.

But still, this isn't right.

We'll be ruined together.

[ Han Da Jung ]

I'm sorry to send this text before your broadcast.

After the article was released,

my classmates are harassing me.

I'm having a hard time, but...

I feel better when I see this picture.

Ahjussi, I know I should be very sorry.

But...

because I'm a mom...

[ Father and daughter contract ]I want to protect my baby.

As you said,

contracts are good at first.

But when it's broken, one of the parties get ripped to shreds.

If you'll graciously allow it this once,

I'll diligently focus on my contractual duties.

[ People's Assembly Hall ]

This week's proposed bill for the "People's Assembly Hall"

pertains to special laws for expansion of

rental apartments for the communities.

Former Assemblyman Wie will be proposing today's bill.

Is this correct?

Yes, correct.

This bill has a particularly long title.

Are there any special reasons for today's bill?

[ People's Assembly Hall ]

I'm getting a bad feeling...

Before I speak about today's bill,

I want to offer sincere apologies...

regarding my recent family issues.

- No way...- What's even worse

is that I was not being honest.

I have consistently denied my daughter's pregnancy.

But she is...

pregnant.

What show is he putting on now?

Huh?

She's 12 weeks pregnant and...

Why, this punk...

Has he gone mad?

My daughter...

wants to have the baby.

During our last broadcast,

I stated abortions are immoral.

But after I found out about my daughter's pregnancy,

I advised her to get an abortion...

even though she wanted to keep the baby.

In accordance to my statement,

I was being immoral.

I know it was shameless,

and my actions weren't logical.

I was worried about my young daughter's future,

and it felt very...

burdensome for me to bear.

That is why I demanded her of such a thing.

But my daughter's words...

really moved my heart.

She said she wanted to

protect her baby...

as her mom had done.

When her mom gave birth to her,

she didn't have me by her side.

But her baby's dad...

is by her side.

She knows she won't be regretting her decision.

So I've made a decision to respect my daughter's wishes.

And I'd like to say this...

to my daughter right now.

Even though I wasn't by your mom's side,

I promise...

to stay by your side.

- Isn't he amazing?- I can't believe this.

My apologies.

Wow, that's really great.

"The Nation's Dad," daebak. He's so cool.

He's so amazing, so amazing.

And he's handsome to boot.

"The Nation's Dad," my a**.

What on earth? What a weirdo.

He's not blood-related to her.

[ The Great Show ]

Why are those people at our house?

Please help me keep my children's lives private.

If it helps Ahjussi become an assemblyman again.

Yeah, sure.

It'll be a piece of cake.

"The Nation's Grandfather." You'll help me, right?

What about you? Do you have feelings for Ms. Jung?

I'm super close with Ms. Jung's parents.

We're practically family.

Hey, hey, stop!

Do you have feelings for Ms. Jung?

Yes, I do.

Is someone here?

Daddy!
