(Episode 74)

What's the emergency?

I thought I should tell you...

before reporting to Chairman Jin.

What is it?

You know that Ms. Heo stopped by a law firm not long ago, right?

I heard it was about the tenant in her building in Ilsan.

That's not all.

- Is it... - You were right.

I think she's preparing for a lawsuit for asset division.

So, she's decided to leave Dad?

However, there's another problem.

Ms. Heo is not alone.

What do you mean?

She has children with her ex-husband.

What?

Ms. Heo has children?

She has children?

Dad must've known about it.

He said he thought that they were through a long time ago.

But what?

It looks like she started seeing her children recently.

I knew something was up.

That must be why they've been clashing lately.

If it's true, your dad will be very shocked.

Suspecting it and confronting it are two different things, you know.

Dad...

He was worried about it, so I told him that it'd never happen.

I honestly don't know how to bring this up to him.

Don't say anything to him.

He might collapse.

What will you do, then?

What do you think?

I have to find a solution.

I'm worried about Dad being distressed, but that's all.

It's happening sooner than I thought,

but I expected this much.

We'll have to deal with it anyway.

Let me know as soon as you confirm it tomorrow.

All right.

She has children?

I'm doing all this for you.

I told you that I'd think about it first.

What's there to think about?

You can't live with your dad and everyone else forever.

You do have to move out eventually.

Shouldn't you think about Hae Chan?

But still, how can you bring it up to Dad like that?

You should've let me talk to him.

I was already feeling so apologetic to Dad.

Why would you be sorry to him?

It's not like you're trying to hurt his feelings.

You just want to lead a good life with your child.

I'm sorry to him.

I know how he raised us by himself,

and how he felt while raising us.

I'm just telling you how I feel.

Okay. I'll be more careful.

I don't want to see your dad again either.

Anyway, I'll prepare everything including a new house and business.

Start preparing Hae Chan to transfer schools.

Father, you're home.

Yes.

Why are you here? Shouldn't you be at the restaurant?

I came home to pick something up.

I'm sorry, Father.

Forget it.

- Where's Choon Rae? - She went grocery shopping.

Father, wait.

Actually, Mother...

knows about your ex-wife.

They ran into each other in front of our restaurant not long ago.

She met...

my ex-wife?

Yes.

Why didn't you tell me that earlier?

I'm sorry.

Once I hid one thing, I had to hide more things.

- You're here. - Hi.

I don't see Ju Young here.

He stepped out to run an errand.

- Have a seat. - Okay.

What are you trying to do with me?

- What? - What do you want to do with me?

Shall we get back together?

Is that what you want?

- Su Hyuk. - I asked you if you want that.

Yes.

I want to get back with you.

I gave it a lot of thought after we broke up.

And this is my conclusion.

I missed you.

I have no intention of getting back with you.

- Su Hyuk. - I'm tired of this.

- What? - I'm just sick of you.

How... How could you...

I never missed you. Not once.

That's a lie.

Wake up, Bo Ra.

I'm already over you!

Ever since that day, there's no room in my heart for you.

You're just someone I used to know.

Someone I hate to think about.

I've said all I had to say.

If you have nothing else to say, leave.

I'm just sick of you.

I never missed you. Not once.

Gosh, it's so spicy.

Everyone, even a strong onion that makes you cry...

tastes sweet after being stir-fried.

We can bear with it for the ones we love.

- Right? - Yes.

Now, shall we start stir-frying it?

Please come in.

Did you wait long?

No, I didn't.

Why didn't you call me when you knew no one was home?

You didn't know when I'd come back.

I don't have your phone number.

You could've asked Ju Young.

I didn't want to bother him while he's working.

I'm not helpful for him.

You must be worried a lot.

Your family members must be worried too.

It's the same for us.

That's true.

My daughter said she wanted to break up with him.

No wonder.

Tae Jin must've been really upset.

He came home drunk.

I heard he never let his family see him drunk.

That wouldn't help him figure out a solution.

In my opinion...

This is purely my point of view.

I think they'll eventually approve of her.

You know how they say that parents have a soft spot for their children.

I don't know.

I'm not so sure...

what I should do.

It seems that Tae Jin is so deeply in love...

with Officer Moo.

- He even said he'll move out. - What?

He said he'll move out and live with Officer Moo.

That must've caused a commotion.

Well, yes. However, it's thoughtful of him to think of doing that.

That's why I'm asking you of this.

Please tell Officer Moo to give Tae Jin another chance.

He can't eat or sleep lately.

It breaks my heart.

My daughter is a mess too.

I guess so.

- We're home. - Oh, my.

Hello.

Oh, goodness. You look so haggard.

Mom, what brings you here?

Why else would I be here? I'm here to see you.

Go to our room with her.

Have a good time.

Where is Woo Ri?

She went to see a movie with her friend.

You know Woo Ri's classmate named Lee Jae Won, right?

His mom said that he pestered her to bring Woo Ri with them.

She said she'll bring Woo Ri back home after dinner.

Woo Ri must be happy.

I should wash my hands first.

Mom, I'm hungry.

Okay.

Why did you come here?

Don't say that. It hurts my feelings.

You should've come in and given me the bread yourself.

It was so delicious.

The restaurant isn't large, but it makes good Chinese food.

The owner is from Taiwan just like us.

No wonder.

Honestly, it was 100 times better than the one Sang Chul bought.

Come on. Just 100 times better?

1,000 times, no, 10,000 times better.

- Are you free this weekend? - Why?

I want to go on a date with my son.

Goodness, it's fine.

It's not okay with me.

Never go back without seeing me like you did last time again.

It made me really upset.

Oh, gosh. Fine. I won't do it.

- Okay? - Okay.

I heard Tae Jin told his family he wants to move out.

What?

He wants to move out and marry you.

I didn't say I'll marry him.

Didn't he say anything to you?

No, he didn't.

He didn't even tell you.

I guess he's struggling by himself.

Where have you been?

Why are you out here?

I went to see Ju Young.

Why didn't you answer my call?

I enjoyed talking to him so much, I forgot to check my phone.

Let's go inside.

You're back. Did you see your son?

Yes, he's doing fine.

You should've told him to come over on the weekend.

Did you tell him?

We don't need to rush it.

I'll get changed quickly and fix dinner for you.

She should tell me how that family is doing.

She's so tactless.

Why do I need to know how they're doing, anyway?

It'll just upset me more.

Ju Young must've been happy to see you.

Does he find staying there uncomfortable at all?

It looks like he's fine there.

Everyone in Officer Moo's family is kind-hearted.

It looks like Officer Moo has made up her mind to end it with Tae Jin.

Tae Jin must be very frustrated. There's nothing he can do right now.

- Sit down. - I have to make dinner.

Sit down for a second.

- I'm sorry. - For what?

I heard you met my ex-wife.

I was going to see until when you'd keep it from me.

Well, I didn't mean to hide it from you.

I know.

It must've been hard for you to bring it up to me.

But it still hurt my feelings a lot.

It made me feel as if I was all alone in this family.

I'm serious. I felt like I was being alienated by the rest of the family.

Choon Rae.

Dinner is already late.

When did you get home?

A few minutes ago.

Why are you drinking here? Shouldn't you be in bed now?

Just because.

I can't fall asleep.

You need to sleep well to stay healthy.

You shouldn't be drinking at this late hour.

I bet it's making it harder for you to fall asleep.

Goodness, don't act like you care about me.

I see that you're turning into a nagger.

I have a busy day tomorrow, but I guess...

I need to be your drinking buddy tonight.

Gosh, who knew you'd try to make me stop drinking like that?

Shall I carry you?

Goodness, cut it out.

You all are aware that two homicide detectives...

got seriously injured trying to catch some thugs, right?

I heard they need about eight weeks to recover.

They took a sick leave and are hospitalized now.

The division will look for volunteers to fill in for them.

Would it be okay if I volunteer? I'd love to work at the scenes.

Do you have investigation specialization certificate?

No, I haven't had a chance to get it yet.

Officer Choi, being brave is great and all,

but not all police officers are allowed to do investigative work.

Look at me. Only those with the certificate can do it.

When did you get your certificate?

I'm surprised too.

Wasn't your career doing nothing risky to ensure a long career?

Guys, what's with you all?

I still do what I have to do. Don't underestimate me, okay?

It is a tough job,

but I'd make about 600 dollars more than working here.

Shall I do it?

In the Violent Crimes Unit, you need to look for what needs to be done.

It doesn't suit you at all.

Enough with the chit-chat. Let's get to work.

This meeting is done.

- Go, Chamsu-ri! - Go, Chamsu-ri!

Officer Moo, spare me a second.

You still haven't changed your mind?

No, sir.

I heard everything from Mr. Cha.

So please allow me to do it.

Me transferring to a different division will be best in many ways.

Doing a transfer is easier said than done.

There has to be a vacant position.

Mr. Cha said he wants to be transferred.

- Pardon me? - Since you live in this area,

and you need to raise your kid, he said he'd leave instead.

Chances are, he'll probably be transferred sooner than you.

It's almost time for him to return to headquarters too.

- How did it go? - My guess was right.

She asked them to prepare for a lawsuit.

The war has finally begun.

What should I do?

It must've taken her a lot to come to this decision.

We should dig up everything about her first.

Let's start with her children.

All right.

What brings you here?

Did something happen?

Quit what you're doing and go to the US for a little while.

- Do Hyun. - You wanted to go back to school.

What is going on?

You knew, didn't you?

The fact that Ms. Heo has children.

Dad gave her permission to see them.

- Just pretend you don't know. - Ms. Heo...

She's getting ready for a property division suit behind Dad's back.

- How can I pretend not to know? - What did you just say?

So leave the country until it's all sorted out.

I told you...

that she'd eventually reveal her true colors.

A lawsuit?

You just watch. I'll be sure to kick her out empty-handed.

I guess we were never family to her.

You're right.

I should get away.

Let's talk for a minute.

Go ahead. What is it about?

I heard you said you want to be transferred instead of me.

You want to go because I make you uncomfortable.

If that's the case, I should leave.

I also heard you told your family that you want to move out.

I was going to move out anyway. I should've done it sooner.

It has nothing to do with you, so don't worry about it.

I'm so grateful that I'm about to cry.

I'm jealous that you're so competent.

I have to wait even if I want to transfer to another division,

but you can do it whenever you want to.

Think logically.

Woo Ri will start school next year.

This is driving me crazy.

Why do you keep making me feel indebted?

It's making both of us go crazy, so let's end this fight now.

- Bo Ra. - Officer Moo.

Are you free this evening by any chance?

Hey.

Do you have a mind of your own or what? I should teach you a lesson.

Why did you bring me here?

No one welcomes me here.

Everyone always tells me to leave.

Let's go back.

- Don't get up. - Okay.

Here you go. Eat up.

Thank you.

I didn't think you would really cook a meal for me.

Don't say that.

I didn't cook anything special.

I'm sorry that I only gave you the dishes my family always eat.

Gosh, please don't say that.

Whatever you cook is delicious.

The lunch box you made for me last time was amazing.

It touched my heart.

Thank you for saying that.

Eat up.

Thank you for the food.

How is this possible...

You must have magical hands.

Every dish is so good.

Gosh. Bo Ra is a good cook.

So is Ms. Heo.

Bo Ra is good, but she makes fusion food.

Your dishes...

taste exactly like my mom's dishes.

This is how we live.

The four of us are living in a house that's smaller than your room.

It's nice and cozy.

Do you really think so?

Well, what's the point of living in a large house?

Whom you live with is more important.

As you know, our house is only large.

It has no warmth.

Is Bo Ra doing well?

It seems like she's trying hard to be okay.

She's working harder than before.

I really liked her.

What about me?

Gosh, I don't know.

I suppose I've grown to like you too.

Grown to like me?

I guess it's fine. At least, you like me now.

As long as you like me.

Oh, right. Isn't it almost time for Woo Ri to come home?

I hope I can see her before leaving.

In fact, I told you to come in to tell you something.

Please feel free to say anything. I've heard a lot of harsh things.

I'm ready to accept anything.

Give up on my daughter, Goong Hwa.

- Ms. Lee. - You know...

It's not like I don't know how Chairman Jin and Ms. Heo are.

Also, considering what happened between Su Hyuk and Bo Ra...

My feelings for Officer Moo are real. You know that.

But my daughter doesn't feel the same.

I should stop you two even if you two are in love.

You know that Goong Hwa likes someone else.

So...

please give up and leave now.

- Ms. Lee, I... - Affection is quite scary...

seeing that it made me want to cook a meal...

for you.

I think I got attached to you and Bo Ra while working there.

However, I don't want to get involved with your family.

Right in front of me,

your dad slapped my son in the face...

His face...

I'm sorry.

That's why I don't feel very comfortable seeing you.

I hope you can understand me.

Did you stay because of me?

Yes, I did. Have you been eating?

I ordered this soup, so I can say that.

I'm sorry for making you worry.

That's okay. Eat up.

I told Officer Moo that you might be transferred to Busan.

She seemed to hesitate a bit.

She won't change her mind easily.

I had no idea.

When did you two start dating?

Anyway, make sure you take care of everything.

Make she doesn't get hurt.

- Yes, sir. - Eat up.

I'm sorry for asking you to see me so many times.

I'm not bothering you, am I?

You're not bothering me at all.

I needed a friend too.

Shall we drink to that?

I finished my glass.

You said you'd be my drinking buddy.

Thank you.

Is Su Hyuk causing you distress?

Yes, very much so.

He says so many hurtful things to me.

Su Hyuk? I mean, my brother does?

Officer Moo, you told me last time...

that Su Hyuk still likes me a lot.

I don't think he does.

Bo Ra.

You can't be too cruel to someone you love.

However, Su Hyuk has been very cruel to me.

As if he would never see me again.

Bo Ra,

shall I tell you a secret?

Actually, I'm in love with someone.

But his family disapproves of me because I have a child.

So I've been very mean to him lately.

It hurt my pride and broke my heart.

So I've been mean to him knowing how much...

it could hurt his feelings.

Maybe, he thinks...

that I hate him,

or my feelings for him have changed just like you.

But that's not true at all.

I'm afraid I might change my mind.

That's why I talk more harshly to him.

However, being mean to him...

makes myself upset and breaks my heart.

I think Su Hyuk is feeling the same way.

We're twins, as you know.

Thank you.

You're wrong. We are over.

Bo Ra.

You didn't hear what Su Hyuk said.

If he cared about me, he wouldn't have said that.

How could he say such a thing?

What did he say?

He said...

I think I'm going to cry if I say that.

Why would you cry?

You should go and punch him until he comes to his senses.

I don't even know what to do.

I should end it to make Su Hyuk feel comfortable.

I wish I could end it and leave him.

But I can't control my feelings.

He doesn't come to me,

and it doesn't seem like he ever will.

By the way, I think I'm the only one who's drinking.

It's unfair.

- Is that so? - You said you'd drink with me.

Are you really not going to drink?

All right.

Let's drink.

Officer Moo!

(Emergency Room)

Please help her.

- This way. - Hurry up.

Officer Moo. Officer Moo!

Do Hyun.

- What happened? - I don't know either.

She fainted while having drinks with me.

What? She drank?

Is she allergic to alcohol by any chance?

Yes, that's right. I remember hearing about it.

My goodness.

Officer Moo.

Officer Moo!

(Lovers in Bloom)

Tell him Ms. Heo saw the lawyer because of the arcade project.

Do you have a plan?

I need to make her leave empty-handed no matter what.

- Seoul Corporation? - Do you know the company?

The chairman is a man named Jin Dae Gab.

Are you saying that jerk, Mole, works for Chairman Jin?

If you have something to say, just say it. I'm busy.

Who do you think you are to put me through this agony?

I'm cursing meeting you and all the times I spent loving you.

Isn't this Moo Goong Hwa's number?

The owner of this phone fainted, and the ambulance took her.

Don't go anywhere near her again. I can't tolerate it anymore.
