Your alarm rang.

[Episode 13]

I have to go.

I only have cereal. Do you want some?

No.

I'll eat at home.

What do you have for breakfast?

What?

You live by yourself.

What do you have for breakfast?

Whatever I can fix.

Sure.

Go on.

Your scar...

I got surgery.

It's completely gone.

It is.

You should have gotten surgery sooner.

Could my past be erased like this?

You just have to keep your mouth shut.

Forget anything I said last night.

Sure.

Why are you sitting here alone?

I'm waiting for my mom.

- How old are you? / - Seven.

You're so pretty.

You're up early.

Yes.

Are you alright?

Sure.

Why?

It's nothing.

Are you sure you're alright?

Are you worried about my checkup?

It's all gone. Don't worry.

Okay.

The weather is nice.

We should go see some flowers.

Mom.

Yes?

I'm your daughter

and she's my daughter, right?

What's wrong with you?

Isn't Yugyeong your daughter?

I don't think you could have forgotten her.

She's your daughter.

I'll get breakfast ready.

Is something wrong?

No.

How is work?

Fine.

What should

I buy you when I make some money?

What?

You bought me a suit.

Don't you need anything?

There must be something. What is it?

It's a bit expensive.

What is it? Tell me.

I need a new cell phone.

A new cell phone?

It has a new number

and I stored the old pictures.

Thank you.

It's the model Korean Wave stars

use the most these days.

It is?

Do you like it?

All the pictures are stored.

Nobody can see them without a password.

Use your old phone for everyone else.

This is only for three people.

Number 1 is home, number 2 is your

mom's cell phone and number 3 is me.

What?

Aren't we the three most important

people in your life?

You think you're equal to them?

You don't have any pictures of

the two of us.

You only took pictures for us.

The weather is so nice.

Should we take a picture today?

We're not little kids.

We never got a chance. Come on.

Come here.

Smile. Here goes.

One, two, three.

Shouldn't you be doing kiss scenes soon?

Let me know if you have to.

I'll help you practice.

Hi, Miryeon.

What?

I'll be right there.

Jeongeun!

I'm not late, am I? Let's go.

Sit down for a minute.

Be careful what you say.

Don't say anything about your baby,

rabout living with a man or

about being Lee Aerin's daughter.

I put down my address as yours.

Lee Aerin and I agreed on this.

You can tell everyone after

you're successful and married.

Am I wrong?

I understand.

Let's go.

Why isn't Hansu coming?

Why is he coming?

I'm so nervous.

Where are you? We're going up now.

Everyone is asking who Seo Jeongeun is.

We'll start filming this soon. Read it.

Okay.

She might be the leading character

in director Choi Gangu's movie.

You can do what you want.

How much are you getting for

the drama you're in now?

It's my first...

Probably...

We want double of what

she's getting now.

What?

Double, nothing less.

I'm sorry. She means double of double.

I need to educate her a bit. Come here.

She only gets about $70 a day.

Double isn't much.

They're talking $1,000

and you're asking for double?

You're not negotiating for taxi fare.

$1,000?

When did you get to be so expensive?

Just sign with us.

What?

She's my actress.

You can come, too.

I'll nurture the both of you.

What are the conditions?

I'm sorry, but no.

Why not?

You worked for Heaju 7 years ago.

I'll just do this with Miryeon.

I don't want to get involved with you either.

You're married.

What does that have to do with anything?

You're married, too.

Oh, right.

It won't do us any good to get involved.

No.

They didn't decide on the leading

character for director Choi's movie, right?

Han Yugyeong really wants Seojin.

Director Choi really wants Jeongeun.

Seo Jeongeun is like Cinderella.

There's an article saying

she's the second Seojin.

That outfit really made her look good.

Just go with Seo Jeongeun.

She's not that well known.

Send the investors a video of

the drama scenes and articles about her.

She lacks public recognition.

We have to create an issue.

Where is Yugyeong?

I don't know.

Hasn't she been a bit too quiet?

I won't come down.

Hello.

I know you.

How do you know me?

We met at the airport.

Oh...

You're so smart.

What's your name?

Hanbyeol. Seo Hanbyeol.

Oh... Hanbyeol.

What are you doing here?

My friends are going home with me

to watch my mom on TV.

Yeah?

Goodbye. Let's go.

I'm home!

Hello.

Hi. You should wash your hands.

We can't miss mom.

She's on TV for a long time.

Come on, wash your hands.

Grandmother!

- Okay, I give up. Go on in. / - Okay.

She's fine.

That's good enough.

This is far as I should go.

You're practically shining.

I'm so glad you're helping me.

Listen to you.

Didn't you say you were wearing white?

Are you telling me to change because of her?

This is the only outfit they gave us.

You have a lot of outfits.

Give her a break.

She doesn't even have a stylist.

What are you doing?

I'll go and change. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Hurry.

Did you get the call? I'm sorry.

You can't do this all of a sudden.

I'm sorry.

I don't think this will fit.

- I'll take this one. / - Sure.

Where is Jeongeun?

Hurry up!

I'm sorry.

Wait. Wipe off your sweat.

Do I have to wait for that, too?

Let's do a rehearsal.

I'm the daughter of your family's servant.

I ate your leftovers and used

your old notebooks to study.

I thought of you as my friend.

That's what you thought.

This is just a rehearsal.

You should turn your face.

Don't you know that much?

I can't work with her.

I think I sprained my wrist.

How frustrating.

Where are you going?

We have to film this scene.

I can't believe it. Her face is swollen.

I'm alright.

Don't be like that when

you become famous.

- Assistant director! / - Yes, sir.

- Go get her. / - Okay.

Did you see this article?

Seo Jeongeun overwhelmed the leading

actress after four appearances.

Do you know they're calling her

the second Seojin?

No way. She's no match for me.

You're a setting sun and she's a rising sun.

I'm tired. Leave me alone.

Are you drinking all the time these days?

Image is important for an actress.

Manage it well.

Are you trying to lecture me?

I'm Park Seojin.

Choose her for your movie.

We're thinking about it.

What?

Do you know she auditioned for the part?

She doesn't want a supporting role.

She's going for the lead.

She said that?

That's hilarious.

She acts pretty well. Take a look.

I'm tired of hating.

I hate you and I hate him.

She's diligent and humble. There she is.

This is Seo Jeongeun.

How does it feel to become popular overnight?

How were you discovered?

She had many auditions.

I was an extra.

Seojin recommended me.

That's not true.

Seojin recommended you?

Yes, I was just a passerby.

I'm very grateful to her.

You became a star playing an extra role?

It's Seojin!

Where?

Seojin.

Did you really recommend Seo Jeongeun?

Is that so important?

Do you want some news?

I decided on my next role.

Director Choi Gangu's "Eternal Love".

Can we print that?

Sure. The producer is here.

Let's go somewhere we can talk.

Let's go.

What about our interview?

It's not because I hate you.

It's just business. All I have is work.

You don't have to explain.

I wouldn't come near me if I were you.

Do you want to be in our movie that much?

I'm not afraid of you and I don't hate you.

And I want to be in that movie.

I think I could do a good job.

How can you play a single mom

when you live by yourself?

I'm an actress.

I have to go.

Did I ever thank you?

For what?

For coming that night when I asked you to.

Go on.

Gangu

Hi, Gangu.

It's too bad I can't play the role,

but it's better for you this way.

It wasn't easy for Seojin either.

What?

It was close.

The investors really liked

the drama you were in.

You were at a disadvantage

because you're not famous.

- Really? / - Yes.

It feels good to hear that

even if I didn't get the part.

Can I get an autograph?

I never gave an autograph before.

I'm your first fan.

You didn't think of an autograph?

Sure, I did.

I changed it every year since I was fourteen.

Then give me all of them.

So, this was your first autograph. Next.

This was an imitation of Taeiji.

His last name is Seo, too.

It's that house.

What a nice place.

It would have been nice if I knew sooner.

I'm relieved. Go on in.

Come over some time.

My mom wants to see you.

Can I? I will definitely do that.

Be careful.

Bye.

You were with Gangu this whole time?

Yes.

You didn't worry about the dishes?

I didn't get the part.

Aren't you going to comfort me?

I'm so happy. It serves you right.

I must be crazy to like someone who's so cold.

Gangu is much more charming.

Why do you like me?

I might lose to Gangu for everything else,

but I have Hanbyeol.

She should call me dad soon.

I heard about what happened. Have a seat.

Thank you.

I grew up tiptoeing around, too.

You heard about my company, right?

They're just rumors.

UB is a firm company.

It's going to be ripped up to pieces.

Will you take over?

You weren't interested in fashion

when I suggested it 6 years ago.

I think you qualify now.

Fashion is an industry with high added values.

It's much more profitable than selling fabric.

You must have a condition.

My daughter, Seojin.

I think she's going to get into trouble.

There's nothing I can do.

You're a businessman.

You need this much power to fight Yeongguk.

I have principles and I have a woman,too.

I'm sorry.

A man should live by his ways.

Are you prepared?

He's my brother, but isn't Yeongjo

really charming?

He's supplying 100,000 yards of fabric

to Heaju Fashion starting tomorrow.

Let's talk about our business.

I'll agree to the terms of the contract.

Sure.

Forget about all the troubles from before.

Please take good care of Seojin.

You won't find an actress like her.

It's Seojin.

Hi, Seojin. Why?

You can't do that.

It's nothing. Excuse me.

The work is hard, isn't it?

We smile in public, but cry in secret.

We make money in public,

but lose money secretly.

Teach me.

What?

How to run a secret fund.

You adapt quickly.

What do you want to know?

Your know-how.

I worked for Choi Jongdal for 30 years.

He ruined Lee Aerin's company

and got Heaju to take over.

Do you know how many shares he gathered?

You know how he did that?

He wrote double contracts and

added money for expenses.

Even the accountant doesn't know.

Heaju Fashion won't accept the delivery.

What are you talking about?

Why won't they accept delivery?

They won't allow the delivery.

They found a defect.

There's no way.

What's the defective score?

41 points.

We need 40 to pass, but it's 41.

Someone's messing with it.

I knew it was a trap from the start.

We paid for the unprocessed fabric

to meet the deadline.

It must be Lee Yeongguk's doing.

I gave the order.

You need two trucks and about

$1,000 for storage.

I'll appeal to the Fair Trade Commission.

My employees are too strict.

What can you do?

There isn't time for another examination.

You won't get a good price for

summer fabric after a month.

I guess you won't even get that.

The fabric has the designer's logo.

You can dye it black and sell it cheap

to your shopping mall.

That will ruin the fabric.

You have a conscience, huh?

You worked at the market for 6 years.

You can't still be naive.

Didn't you know I'd do this?

I was hoping you wouldn't.

I was hoping you'd be better than that.

Being arrogant won't settle anything.

What will you do now?

Did it make you that jealous

that I had Heaju Store?

You didn't even know.

I can understand why grandfather

kept it a secret.

He wanted you to learn there

and take over Heaju.

He wanted you to challenge me and beat me.

That's why you were in hiding.

Now show me what you learned there!

Thank you for the opportunity.

It wouldn't have been fun if

the delivery was that easy.

Yeongjo is ruined?

Says who? Don't say that.

We can't sell the fabric because

it has the logo printed on it.

It was a trap from the start.

How much did he lose?

He has that much money. He's alright.

He'll take care of it.

How can you be so carefree?

I'm going to separate from his company.

What do you have to separate?

You get paid by him.

I'm the president of MI.LMOR.

You used to sell clothes,

but you became pretty successful.

Stop being greedy.

Am I wrong?

Everyone is loyal to Yeongjo, huh?

Let's make beef soup with

plenty of beef for dinner.

Okay.

Oh, boy. I'm going to run away.

Hey!

Come back here right now!

What about Yeongjo?

His older brother got him again. What a life.

Seriously. I can't believe it.

I finally got my life straight.

What's wrong with his other brother?

You must be really mad.

This can't ruin Yeongjo.

Annual sales are tens of millions.

It will affect him.

Where is the fabric they refused?

In storage.

Why? Do you want some?

I want to live in a world without phones.

Yes, sir. Sure, you can call any time.

I guess he can't buy that house in Gangnam.

You have some money, don't you?

I don't have any money.

Find some. I always pay you back.

Excuse me.

Who is it?

Gyesun!

Do you recognize me?

Give this to Yeongjo.

Don't tell him I gave it to you.

He'll be happier if you give it to him.

I haven't been a very good mother.

It's very awkward for me.

Trust him. He's strong.

Sure. He's his grandfather's grandson.

You've aged.

What about you?

I heard you're happy with your daughter.

My granddaughter should be home soon.

She's pretty.

You suffered a lot.

We should have met more often.

It's all because of pride.

The flowers are really pretty.

I remember the day you got married.

The apricot trees were bright

as if they were lit up.

Your mother made me a pretty dress.

Everyone was happy because

the groom was tall.

Who knew he'd die after 2 years?

I didn't think of becoming an actress

at that time.

I was going to learn how to sew

and get married like you.

You and I've both lived very tough lives.

Let's just say it's destiny.

I wandered a path I didn't have to go.

I'm making beef soup.

Come straight home after work.

I'm home.

Hi.

You came right on time.

The soup will get cold. Eat.

Let's eat.

I think they made this so you'd

work harder, right?

Yes.

Eat.

Hakgu, just eat.

This is good.

Eat a lot and beat all those bad guys.

What do you mean?

- She wants uncle to work hard. / - Right.

Oh... Good luck!

Good girl.

Hakgu, eat.

Do you have money to pay for

the unprocessed fabric and dyes?

Sure, but I think I'll have to

move out a bit later.

The times aren't good to buy a house.

Take your time.

Do you have something to say?

I changed the ownership of the store.

Get a loan if you have to.

This is from your mother.

This is the allowance you

gave to me and Sungeum.

What's wrong with everyone?

Pay us back with interest. It's not free.

I don't need it.

You can't just sit and take this.

You need money to fight.

You must be upset because of your brother.

Yes, very much.

Try to comfort me.

How?

You did all sorts of things

when you wanted an audition.

You pretended to be drunk

and you sang a strange song.

I cooked for you. That was hard work.

Is that all you can think about? Gee.

Wait.

I need to practice tomorrow's scene.

What?

I got the scenario.

Oh...

Explain the scene.

This man is always tricked by

his older brothers.

He's a bit stupid.

Why does the woman like him?

Is she a bit strange?

She's an original fool.

That makes sense.

Then it's not something

we can practice here.

Discuss it with the director tomorrow.

What?

Our partners heard and came.

Heard what?

Heaju will take it for $5 a yard.

It's $10. They want it for $5?

Is that what the Heaju Group is like?

We could increase it to $6.

Let's consider it an expensive lesson

and sell it for that price.

No.

Refuse delivery.

Yeongjo.

Sir!

We won't supply our fabric to Heaju.

What about the cost of

our unprocessed fabric?

What about dyeing and processing costs?

We all need that money.

If we do this,

other companies will do the same thing.

Your costs will drop.

We have to get our original costs.

It's better than nothing.

What are you going to do with this fabric?

Burn it?

I will if I have to,

but I won't sell it at that price.

Yeongjo.

Pay them their money.

Mr. Lee! Mr. Lee!

I'm sorry.

Do something.

He won't sell it at half price?

He refused.

He's going to lose all the money

he made in 6 years.

People with pride dig their own graves.

Yeongjo can't fall like this.

He has to beg for me to benefit a bit.

If Yeongjo won't supply the fabric,

how will Heaju make the clothes?

They're launching a top brand by

a designer from Paris.

That designer is going to be really upset.

Is this how you made money?

You messed with my work?

I won't work with you.

Give me back my designs.

I'm breaking off the contract!

How did you make the fabric?

Why can't it be supplied?

You tested the sample.

Is this some kind of a fight between brothers?

What do you think of me?

Do you think my work is a joke?

Do you know how many people are

waiting at the factory?

Give me my fabric.

Now!

I won't sell it at a cheap price.

I'm sure you don't want to make

your clothes with cheap fabric either.

It's almost time for dinner. Let's go.

How can you eat?

How about makkeolli?

You drink makkeolli at a place like this?

You lost $1 million.

Should I buy you makkeolli

at an outdoor stand at the market?

Don't talk to me like that.

I'm not your friend.

Didn't we agree to be?

Just treat me like a friend then.

Can you smile after all this?

Are you just going to smile?

You never got a tip for carrying fabric

at Gwangjang Market, did you?

Are you talking about me?

It was 6 years ago.

I bought my baby a rattle with that tip.

Are you telling me about your bitter past?

I won't be in despair over this.

Let's talk business now.

Hanbyeol, come on. You'll be late.

Coming, grandmother.

Don't fall or cry today.

Study well and have a nice day.

Okay.

Let's go.

I hope I meet that pretty lady again.

What pretty lady?

The lady I saw at the airport.

Let's go, Hanbyeol.

Who is here?

Lee Aerin.

Where is she?

I was going to come see you tomorrow.

You beat me to it.

You're a busy person.

I should come to see you.

I'm flattered.

You're still beautiful. I admire you.

Hi.

Look who's here.

It's been a long time.

Yes, it has.

You look prettier.

That hairstyle looks nice.

I was surprised to hear that you were here.

Go ahead and talk.

I'll drive you home later.

Sure, thanks.

What brings you here?

I saw you on cable TV.

You became very successful.

You seem much healthier, too.

You couldn't use your arm then.

I guess raising a baby is good exercise.

I'm raising a granddaughter.

Didn't you hear a baby cry when

you came to my place 6 years ago?

I don't remember.

Her mom had to work.

I raised the baby.

It's been hectic.

She's so smart and pretty.

I don't want my baby to get hurt.

It rips my heart to pieces awhen she cries.

Do you know what that feels like?

I can put up with everything,

but I won't allow my baby to be hurt.

Why are you telling me this?

Really.

I must be really comfortable around you.

You're smart and have deep thoughts.

You cared for me before.

It's nice to see you again.

I'm happy you've gotten

so very successful.

I'll see myself out.

Take care of yourself.

Stop by when you have time.

Sure. Bye.

Goodbye.

- Bye. / - Goodbye.

[Yugyeong]

Hi.

I'm headed over there right now.

How do you know where I am?

I'm headed to your neighborhood!

Why?

Why would Yun Myeongja say that to me?

Yun Myeongja, I mean, my mom.

Does she know who I am?

Why don't you answer me?

Say something!

I'll have to see for myself.

See what for yourself?

What you're hiding.

Do you feel sick?

Am I going too fast? I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I need some fresh air.

Sure.

What are you doing here?

It's already my third time.

I saw Hanbyeol, too.

What? How dare you come here?

Forget it. Yun Myeongja already warned me.

Does she know I'm her daughter?

Does she know what I did? Answer me!

Mom!

Hanbyeol, see you tomorrow.

This is my daughter.
