Original subtitles

You came.

Yes, I did.

Mum.

Mum?

Yes?

Come outside.

No, I'm tired.

You have to come outside.

Hello, Ma'am.

What are you doing here?

How dare you set foot in this house!

I'm here to see the Chairman.

What? You're here to see who?

I'm here to see the Chairman.

I want to check on his health.

I can't believe this.

Who do you think you are, coming here

and demanding to see the Chairman?

What gives you the right to check

on his health?

I'm here as the Chairman's son.

His son? What?

What?

Did you just say that you're his son?

Yes, I did.

Why, you...

I need to see my father.

Let me go inside.

Tak Goo, let go of her hand.

Mum, step aside and let him go inside.

No, I won't!

The company executives are watching.

Do you want to make a commotion?

He got into a car accident

about 2 weeks ago.

A car accident?

I think he felt danger lurking

around him after that.

He immediately came to me and

wrote this letter of attorney.

Sir...

Just call me Mr. Park.

You said that he felt danger lurking

around him.

Does this mean that someone caused

the car accident on purpose?

Well, I can't say.

I don't have that many people

that I can trust, Tak Goo.

I don't even know who to trust

or doubt any more.

I'm not too late, am I?

I don't know what I should do

to protect you, but I'll give it a try.

I've lost my teacher. I can't lose you too.

I'll do whatever it takes to protect you.

Father.

Come and sit. Let's talk.

Sit here.

Tell me your reason.

You've shocked everyone in this family.

Why did you show up all of a sudden?

He probably showed up to get some

inheritance after the Chairman collapsed.

Mum!

This is a Power of Attorney.

A Power of Attorney?

It says that the Chairman will give me

authority to all his shares and rights.

What?

On the day after the Chairman collapsed,

his legal advisor Park In Taek came to me.

He gave me the Chairman's stock

certificates and official seal.

What?

Kim Tak Goo!

Do you think you're making any sense?

Everything went to you

as soon as Father collapsed?

Are you saying that Father expected

something like this to happen to him

and asked Mr. Park to do this?

That's what I want to know too.

Why did the Chairman think that

something was going to happen to him?

Why did he entrust his rights and shares

to me, and not the Geoseong family?

I want to know that too.

That's why I'm going to act

as his proxy for now.

What?

Kim Tak Goo!

Do you even know what it means

to manage a company?

No, I don't. After all, I'm just a baker.

Then how are you going to act

as the Chairman's proxy?

Because that's what the.

Chairman told me to do.

If he entrusted everything to me,

that means there's something

there for me to do.

Kim Tak Goo!

How dare you even think

about running Geoseong!

Do you think you can do that?

If you don't like it,

then try to stop me again.

I'm going to bring my stuff to

this house in the next few days.

I'm going to take care of the Chairman

until he wakes up.

You're clearly mad.

Now you want to live in this house?

Mr. Park told me that I have

a right to do that.

Let me excuse myself for today.

Goodbye.

Mr. Han!

Get Mr. Park!

Tell him to come and explain everything!

What are you going to do?

Are you going to replace Father?

You heard what I said. Why?

I don't think you belong here.

You should go back to Pal Bong Bakery

and knead the dough instead.

I'm sorry, but Pal Bong Bakery has been

suspended from business for 3 months.

So I'm going to bake at the Chairman's

company for the time being.

The company is not a bakery kitchen.

But they both bake bread to feed people.

You can hurt yourself, Kim Tak Goo.

Thanks for your concern, Gu Ma Jun.

I'll try not to get hurt.

See you around.

This doesn't make any sense.

How could he do this?

Its' 38%!

He didn't even leave 1% for Ma Jun!

He gave everything to that kid!

I didn't think Chairman Gu

would do this either.

How could he be so inconsiderate

of Ma Jun?

Could it be that he knows about Ma Jun?

Don't be ridiculous.

What are you talking about?

He was always very cold to Ma Jun.

He was very inconsiderate of Ma Jun

in his Power of Attorney.

- Maybe... - Shut up!

Ma Jun is my son!

He's my husband's son!

What?

The Chairman got discharged

from the hospital?

But he didn't even wake up yet.

It was Seo In Suk's decision.

I heard that a man who claimed to

be the Chairman's elder son

came by that house in the evening.

He came when the directors

and executives were all there.

Are you... talking about Tak Goo?

We can't be sure yet.

Dr. Yun...

I'm getting my men on it.

We'll be able to hear the details soon.

What are you doing?

Did you just get back?

Yes, what are you doing here by yourself?

Nothing.

Let's go inside.

Tak Goo!

Tak Goo might have to leave

this house soon.

Why? Why would he leave us?

It's because of Chairman Gu Il Jung.

What about him?

Is he going to offer Tak Goo a job?

Tak Goo is his son.

Tak Goo is the elder son of Geoseong Foods.

Mi Sun.

Hey ugly.

You're acting strange today.

What's wrong?

Nothing.

I don't think so.

I think something's going on.

Did something happen at home?

Did the chief scold you again?

- Or... - Did you...

see your father?

I heard that the Chairman is ill.

How is he? Is he okay?

Mi Sun.

My father told me that you might leave us.

Why did you keep that a secret from me?

I'm disappointed.

I don't keep any secrets from you.

I'm not leaving for good.

I'll be away until the Chairman wakes up,

and until I get to the bottom of how

they closed Pal Bong Bakery down.

Really?

Yes.

Did you think that I was going

to leave for good?

Yes.

Are you stupid or something?

This is my home.

I'm not going anywhere.

Thanks for being sad about me leaving.

You're the one who is stupid!

Of course I'm sad to see you go.

I...

I really like you.

You don't know how much I like you.

Of course I do. I really like you too.

Geez!

Let's go inside. It's late.

Yang Mi Sun!

I'm not a puppy!

Don't pat my head like that! I don't like it!

Mi Sun! What's wrong?

Why is she acting like that?

Why is everyone so slow? Get moving!

Jae Bok! Where's the red bean?

Coming!

What I'm looking at aren't memories.

I'll come back to this life.

That's what I'm looking forward to.

I'll be back.

I'll be back, Mr. Pal Bong.

I'm a little nervous.

If you're not confident, then say it now.

Once you get in there, it'll be a war.

You can't go back.

If I gave up every time I wasn't confident,

I wouldn't have done anything.

Sometimes, you need to go for it

even if you're not confident.

It won't be an easy fight.

Yes, I know.

Let's go inside.

Hi, I've been waiting.

I'm Yeo Eun Jin from the secretary's office.

Hi, I'm Cha Jun Hyeon.

They'll be assisting your duties.

I see.

Hello, I'm Kim Tak Goo!

It has nothing to do with table tennis.

It means to seek what's noble.

I look forward to working with you.

Excuse me.

They're your subordinates.

They'll feel uncomfortable if you treat

them too highly.

Oh, I see.

Let's go upstairs.

Okay.

You actually came.

Yes, Ma'am. I told you that I will.

What if I won't allow this?

Will you still go upstairs?

Kim Tak Goo is legally allowed to act

as the Chairman's proxy in his duties.

You can't stop him.

Mr. Park! Why are you doing this to me?

I'm only carrying out what I promised

to the Chairman.

If you have any objections, save them

for the board meeting on Friday.

Let's go upstairs.

I have to go.

Hi.

Oh, hi.

Yug Yeong, you're back.

Let's talk later.

The Chairman's proxy is here.

What?

Uh...

Was this necessary, Father?

Did you have to give everything

you have to him?

What am I?

What do I mean to you?

That's enough.

I'm not going to beg you any more.

I won't be hungry for your approval.

And...

I won't let him take anything from me.

I'm going to crush him

until he begs me to stop.

Just wait and see.

Watch how I crush the son

that you love so much.

Just wait and see.

I asked you all here today because

of the board meeting this Friday.

We have an unqualified proxy

in the company right now.

I think we need to stop him.

I agree. This is preposterous.

I agree.

We can't let this happen to Geoseong.

I agree.

But I'm sure the Chairman had

a reason for trusting this man.

I agree. The Chairman loves Geoseong.

He won't give his shares to someone

who is unqualified for the job.

That's because the Chairman is suffering

from poor judgement.

That's why he needs our help.

But I'm going to do as the Chairman says.

I'm sorry.

Ma Jun!

Are you all standing

because you're against me?

I'd like you to make your position clear.

That way, I'll know what I want to do

with you too.

I'm not against you.

I just want to give this more thought.

Kim Tak Goo is an elementary school

drop out who was a thug for years.

He has 2 years of

experience at the bakery.

That's pretty much his resume.

Yet you're comparing him to me, Mr. Yu?

Ma Jun, that's not what I meant.

Are you doing this in hopes of getting on

the Chairman's good side if he wakes up?

In that case, I won't stop you.

But let me make this clear.

The minute you walk out of here with your

back turned against me, you're my enemy.

And I will show no mercy to my enemies.

That's enough. Sit down, everyone.

Sit down, Mr. Yu.

I'd like to hear your opinions

on this matter.

You mean all these files are...

You need to read and understand them

before the board meeting.

You can start with the ordinary profit.

Huh? Or... what?

It's income other than capital gain.

Oh, I see.

It's used to measure how profitable

a company is.

I see.

But isn't this a bread company?

Yes.

But I don't see anything on bread.

I see a lot of big words.

This is where you manage business,

not bake breads.

I told you not to start in the first place

if you're not confident.

I see.

Excuse me.

Can I have coloured pens?

I need red and blue pens.

Hi.

Do you have dictionaries?

I need Korean and English dictionaries.

Can I get a glass of water?

Thank you.

I think he's going to thank us all day long.

Yug Yeong, give him a glass of water.

Okay.

Come in.

I'm sorry.

I'm not used to this.

It's okay. I can do that.

You can give that to me.

Pick up the phone and press 0.

Come on.

Yes, Sir?

Hello, secretary.

Excuse me?

No, nothing. Carry on.

If you need the secretary's help,

you can call us.

I see.

You don't have to thank us

every time we do something.

But everyone is working so hard for me.

We're here to help you work.

We enjoy seeing our boss get his job done

more than hearing words of gratitude.

Oh...

If you don't have anything else to ask me,

then excuse me.

Yug Yeong.

I'm sorry. I didn't know that you'd be here.

You don't have time for someone like me.

I don't know what made you

want to be here,

but now that you're here,

you should get your act straight.

Because in here, everyone will devour you

as soon as you make one mistake.

Is this your first day of returning to work?

When did you get here?

How does it feel to meet Tak Goo again

like this?

Why? Are you regretting it?

Are you being tempted?

Now that he replaced Father,

do you want to go back to him?

- Gu Ma Jun. - But too bad.

I don't think Tak Goo will take you back.

Even if he does, I won't let you go.

What are you trying to say?

This is why I told you not to regret.

Because if you regret it, I'll get mad.

Don't make any plans for dinner.

I'll come and pick you up.

Tak Goo! Is that you, Tak Goo?

Who is it?

Tak Goo sent this person to get these things.

To get Tak Goo's things?

He'll be staying at the Geoseong

residence for a while.

I'm here to get his stuff for him.

This belongs to Tak Goo.

And this belongs to Tak Goo too.

Wait.

You can wait here.

Isn't that Kim Tak Goo?

I heard that he only graduated

from elementary school.

I heard that he didn't even get to graduate.

Well, I heard that he's dumb.

I heard that he didn't understand a thing

during the executive meeting.

How can they hire him as the CEO while

the Chairman is sick?

Maybe I should find a new job.

Tak Goo! Kim Tak Goo!

Yang Mi Sun! What are you doing here?

I just wanted to come by.

Why? Am I bothering you?

No.

This is for you.

Huh?

Ta-dah!

Wow! Did your mother make this for me?

Mum said that you need to eat well

in order to work hard.

Here you go.

Ah...

I'll eat it later.

You should eat it right now.

You look famished. Here.

Mi Sun.

You need to eat well in order

to have energy.

It's good, huh?

Yes, it's good.

Join us, secretary.

No, thank you.

Join us, Jun Hyeon. I mean, Mr. Cha.

Come on, join us.

Yes, Ma'am.

Here you go.

Thank you.

It's good, huh?

Yes.

Please take good care of Tak Goo.

Yes, Ma'am.

Tak Goo is a slow starter, but once he gets

the hang of it, he's very good.

Do you know that Tak Goo was born

with a perfect sense of smell?

Yes.

Did you hear the story of how he baked

my grandfather's bong bread?

No.

Nice work, everyone. You too, Mr. Han.

It was a successful meeting.

Why is everyone so happy?

Something delightful happened today.

You should've seen Ma Jun today.

Still, Father is sick.

I don't think you should drink a toast.

Don't spoil the moment. I feel great.

I'm home.

Is that you, Ma Jun?

What are you doing here again?

Don't be so cold to her.

She's your future daughter-in-law.

Ma Jun.

I'm hungry.

Don't come out, Mr. Cha. Bye.

Wow, you have a huge house.

This isn't my house.

It's the Chairman's house.

When are you going to stop by home?

I'll stop by after the board meeting.

See you then.

Mr. Cha, take Mi Sun home safely.

Don't worry, Sir.

Go home safely.

Tak Goo!

Don't get discouraged.

Don't skip your meals.

Be yourself. Be Kim Tak Goo.

Straighten your shoulders.

Thanks, ugly.

Be myself. Be Kim Tak Goo.

Let me hear you out.

You're not really thinking of

marrying him, are you?

I'm really thinking of marrying him.

Shin Yug Yeong.

Yug Yeong.

I told you that I'll show you.

I'll show you what I can do

and how I can easily break your will.

Don't you remember?

Fine, you win.

You win. So get away from Ma Jun.

I'm sorry, but I've gone too far.

The Chairman already approved of us.

What?

I'll do my best.

I'll be a good daughter-in-law.

Please approve of me.

This is unbelievable!

Are you saying that you're

going to get on top of me?

That's enough.

That's enough. Get up, Shin Yug Yeong.

You're not going anywhere.

I'm not finished with you yet!

But Yug Yeong and I are done with you.

Ma Jun, stop acting like a kid!

Why are you wasting your time with her

at a crucial time like this?

I already told you.

She's the only one that I want.

I'm not giving up on her.

So you should give up.

Ma Jun!

Do you want to see your mother die?

If you don't want to see me die,

then you should approve of our marriage.

Ma Jun!

I told you that I don't want to hurt you.

Ma Jun...

Let's stop here.

I don't want to go any further.

Please, I'm begging you.

Let's go.

What's wrong?

What is it?

You'd better not regret this.

If you do, I'm going to get mad.

I'm working at the company in your place.

I'm bombarded with paperwork.

I used to think that being a chairman

meant that you get to sit in a fancy chair

and give orders to people.

I never imagined how much work it takes.

I don't know if I'll be able

to persuade the board.

Did you really decide to move in?

Jag Yeong.

No one welcomes you.

Everyone is uncomfortable around you.

Isn't it rude to move in like this?

I'm only going to stay here

until the Chairman wakes up.

I'll try to make myself scarce.

I can stay at the workshop if you want.

Just let me say hello to the Chairman

every morning and evening.

That'll be all.

Be myself. Be Kim Tak Goo.

Be myself. Be Kim Tak Goo.

That's right.

Good morning.

Good morning, Sir.

Excuse me.

Can you remove all the files inside?

And draw me a graph.

I want a graph of all the bread

that sold well or didn't sell well

and list the reasons why

they had those sales.

That way, I'll understand better.

And bring all the products that Geoseong

made in the last 3 years to my office.

All the types of bread that we made?

Yes, all of them. I want them all.

He's a consultant for many

prestigious companies.

This is my business proposal.

I'd like your advice on this.

They're marketing experts.

I look forward to working with you.

They will back you up financially.

I'm Gu Ma Jun.

I look forward to working with you.

What? Who?

The elder son of Chairman Gu Il Jung

that I talked about before.

He's working for Geoseong Foods

as Chairman Gu's proxy.

Wow! I think it's really him this time!

Is it really Tak Goo this time?

I think so.

Today is the day.

Ma Jun and Tak Goo's fates

will be decided today.

And Ma Jun is going to win.

It's time. Let's go.

Bye, honey.

Sir.

Sir.

Tak Goo.

Yug Yeong.

Get up, Sir. Today is the board meeting.

Oh, right. The board meeting.

Am I late?

You still have time.

I brought your suit.

Thanks.

Uh... Yug Yeong?

You're okay, right?

You're okay in the Geoseong

residence, right?

I'm sorry, but work is not a place

for private conversations.

Oh, right.

I'm fine.

I chose this path. I'll be happy.

Okay.

Do well in the board meeting, Sir.

Okay, I will. I'll do well.

I'll be myself. I'll be Kim Tak Goo. Okay.

I'm ready. Let's shout cheerfully.

I'm ready. Let's go.

Welcome, everyone.

Chairman. It's me, your attorney.

Everything is going

as you wanted them to be.

Chairman.

Is this where Tak Goo is?

Yes.

Is everyone here?

Let's begin the board meeting.
