Original subtitles

- This isn't a dream, right? - We're dreaming right now.

Is it fun to tease me like that?

I'm thrilled to be with you.

I'm also thrilled because you're mine.

(Episode 10)

It's really delicious.

Doesn't it feel like we're newlyweds?

Hey, it's too early for that.

I've always wanted to try it.

What else did you want to try?

This.

I know this is immature, but I'm so happy.

Do you know something?

You've changed.

How so?

You were always sweet,

but you hated doing corny things.

But now, you're okay with doing everything I want.

I've matured as much as I was heartbroken.

I thought love was just about how you feel.

But I realized that you need to put an effort...

into doing things for your partner even if you don't want to do it.

I'll do my best for you, Ji Eun. I'll do anything.

Don't cry. You look ugly.

Shall we go to the market?

We're by the sea, so I bet the seafood will be really fresh.

Abalones, shrimp, crabs...

What else is there?

Anyway, let's add all the healthy ingredients...

and cook healthy soup.

- Do you even know how to make it? - Of course,

I don't. I'm a horrible cook.

There's a fish called perch,

and it's only found in the East Sea. Let's also eat that as sashimi.

It's already making me crave soju.

No, it's been less than a week since you got discharged.

I'm just saying I crave it.

I'll just watch you drink.

It'd be great to live like this every day.

What?

I want to marry you.

I want us to be bound to each other by law.

I won't run away.

I won't let you run away.

I'm going to be your stalker.

Thank you for being my man.

Thank you for being my woman.

You're unbelievable.

My KSAT is in less than a month.

What kind of mother...

neglects their daughter like this?

I don't like my writing teacher.

I don't like my teacher!

What do you want me to do?

I want a different writing teacher.

You're already known for switching teachers very easily.

So no one is willing to teach you. Just stick with this one.

It's not like you'll end up going to a nice university anyway.

What kind of a mother are you?

You're pretty unusual yourself.

I've been lying sick in bed,

but you never check up on me unless you need something.

You're not sick because of me.

You're only like this because you're frustrated with Ji Eun.

You cold-hearted wench.

Aren't you worried about your sister who left home?

Why worry? She's no longer my daughter.

You pretty much forced her to leave.

You slapped her and yelled at her to leave.

I would've also left if I were her.

You should've tried to convince her.

But she's only getting worse because you're so hard on her.

She's old enough to know what's right and wrong.

How can you say that even after how she behaved that day?

I can't believe she told me she's not going to be my daughter anymore.

She's willing to cut ties with her own parents...

because she's head over heels for that punk.

- I don't need that kind of child. - I do.

I can't live without Ji Eun.

We already lost Joon Young.

I can't cut ties with Ji Eun and lose as well.

Then go ahead and live with her.

My dad gave me this house.

So why would I leave? You're the one who should leave.

You'd better cut the nonsense before I throw a fit again.

I'm not scared of you.

You're not scared because you and your brother...

own everything.

Meanwhile, I'm just a puppet who obediently slaved away...

for your family all my life.

Everyone knows that you enabled my dad's company...

to grow this big.

You're the head of the company.

What more do you want?

Why do you always have to rub it in like that?

Watch how you speak to me.

How dare you raise your voice at me?

I'm not your employee.

Do you want me to treat you like a chairman even in our bedroom?

You must be insane seeing that you keep crossing the line.

How can I be sane?

My son is dead, and my daughter ran away from home.

If I were able to stay sane, that would mean I'm crazy.

You're incorrigible.

Look who's talking.

Have you been well?

- Yes. - Good.

Let's see.

Here.

Let me know whenever my brother-in-law...

goes somewhere unusual.

- Okay, sir. - You're very handsome.

Hey, Sang Bum. My goodness.

You must have a lot of free time. What are you doing here so early?

My sister loves the choux pastry here.

I heard she's been lying sick, so I got worried.

Your sister must be happy to have a brother...

who puts up with her tantrums...

even though she's over 50.

My gosh, did you guys fight again?

I'm tired of her saying she's sick all the time.

But on top of that, she's become hysterical.

It's impossible to live with her.

When you're depressed,

you naturally become really furious.

My gosh.

He must've forgotten about his past.

He should thank her for the life he has.

Even if he spends his entire life pleasing my sister,

it still won't be enough.

Have a bite.

Forget it.

It's too early for choux pastry.

Tell me. Where is she?

I think they went on a trip as soon as he got discharged.

Are you saying she slept at the hospital...

until the day he got discharged?

Sometimes, she slept at the hospital.

And other times, she went to Bok Ja's studio.

Apparently, she didn't go anywhere else.

What a devoted girl.

I know people say daughters live just like their mothers.

But it hurts to see her live the exact same life as mine.

I guess I'm being punished for putting Mom and Dad...

through a hard time.

You also married someone without Mom and Dad's approval.

So why can't you be on Ji Eun's side?

It's because I regret...

having married the person my parents disapproved of.

I should've listened to Dad.

Other than the fact that he's not well off,

why do you hate Jang Se Hoon so much?

Isn't it obvious?

The fact that he's dating Ji Eun in his poor state...

means he's expecting a lot, no?

Are you saying he constantly reminds you...

of Sang Bum?

On top of that, he's not the type to let Ji Eun have what she wants.

I bet he'll do everything he can to please her when they're dating.

Your brother-in-law was just the same.

Before we got married,

he acted like he couldn't live without me.

I don't like that his family doesn't meet up to our level,

but I also don't like him for being such a difficult person.

He didn't seem to care...

even when I said some terrible things to him.

That means he's a confident and decent man.

What's so decent about that?

That's enough to make me suspicious of him.

It means he's arrogant enough...

to think he has control over Ji Eun...

regardless of what we say to him.

And he'll show his true colors once he gains power.

Look at your brother-in-law.

He's out of control...

now that Dad's gone.

Did he pay you 300 dollars again?

He paid me 250 dollars this time.

What a cheap punk.

I guess he took out 50 dollars because he hasn't been...

getting much out of you.

Keep the money.

And don't get too deeply involved with Hyun Min.

It won't do you any good.

Yes, sir.

How dare a fool like him...

try to trick me?

Should I continue to keep a tail on her?

Isn't the answer obvious?

I need to know where she is in order to feel at ease.

You should meet with her.

And say what?

Tell her to come back once she's done having fun.

Give her a credit card.

- She can't live without money. - Obviously.

The yearly salary of our newbies is just her monthly allowance.

If you're so worried, why not just approve of him?

Why can't you just think of it differently?

Listen, Hyun Sook.

Going through with the merger and making her marry their son...

is pretty much the same thing as giving up a part of what's ours.

Rather than doing that,

it might be better to have someone whom we can control.

You can make him get accustomed to our family.

Were you not listening?

He might become...

just like your brother-in-law once we're all dead.

Once they have babies, things will be secured.

And it's much better to fight within our family.

My son, Min Jae, will be going to college in 10 years.

Our dad started this company,

so the successor should be someone in our family.

Is that why you were against the merger with Seorin?

Because you were scared...

that you might not be able to have your son work at the firm?

I can't deny that.

But you always come first.

I wouldn't have coveted anything if Joon Young were still alive.

He was more than qualified to take over the company.

But let's be honest while we're on the subject.

Ji Eun and Min Jae are the next in line to take over the business.

And even if things may have changed, a woman is considered...

as a member of her husband's family when she's married.

Who lets their daughter take over the family business?

Meanwhile, Min Jae is a member of the Jo family.

Must you be so calculative in this situation?

Tell her to stay with Jang Se Hoon.

Until Min Jae grows up,

we can support Ji Eun...

and keep Jang Se Hoon by her side.

And once Min Jae graduates university,

we can give him a job...

and have Ji Eun teach him how to manage the company.

You know how much Ji Eun adores Min Jae.

You really drew up a big picture.

Married couples become nothing once they're divorced.

We only have each other to rely on.

We should do our best to protect our dad's wealth.

The merger with Seorin isn't going to happen.

Sang Bum is planning a different future for the company.

He already gave me an earful...

for telling you everything.

So just act like you didn't hear about this.

I'm the major shareholder. I have the right to know.

Gosh, come on.

Okay, fine. You should leave.

I have a headache, so I'm going to lie down.

(Seorin Wool Textile Layoff Plan)

(Seorin Wool Textile Layoff Plan)

When it comes to choosing between loyalty and one's interest,

people tend to choose the latter.

But why did you choose to hold hands with me?

There are lots of people who make a lot of money.

But it's rare to find a businessman who has a philosophy of his own.

And I want to believe that you can become one.

I don't have what it takes to become someone like that.

I always had an easy life.

And I'll continue living that way.

If that was the case,

you would've left your father do what he wanted with Ms. Han.

May I ask you what made you change your mind?

I thought you were a sensible man.

But I guess I was wrong.

Because of a certain woman.

She thought I was a sensible man,

and she was disappointed to find out that I wasn't.

Do you love her?

I felt like she could be a turning point in my life,

so I wanted to love her.

But I guess love doesn't make everything possible.

And if love doesn't work out, I should give up.

Won't you regret it?

I have no other choice.

There's another woman who's pregnant with my baby.

And I can't just neglect her.

Is Na Kyung doing okay?

My in-laws in Uljin are...

taking good care of her.

There's a briefcase in my car trunk.

The passcode is Na Kyung's birthday.

Please take that to her.

And tell her I'll drop by this weekend.

Yes, sir.

Get out of the car! Get out, you darn thief!

- That malicious punk is here again. - Get out!

Where is the security team?

They're not doing their jobs, so I want them fired.

- Do you want to get fired as well? - Pardon?

Oh, right.

- Please come this way. - Let go.

Let go.

- Get out! - Please stop.

- Come out of the car and apologize! - Get out.

Get out! Get out of the car now!

Get out! Get out of there!

I want you to apologize! Get out!

- Apologize! - Get off me!

- We want an apology! - Get back here!

- Get off me! - Move!

- Move! - Get out!

Seo Mun Su! Come here!

- Apologize! - Get back here!

I had no idea that you had the layoff...

all planned out on a document.

We can be expedient.

But must we even break the law?

We're a pretty big firm.

Isn't this too hypocritical?

Everything is hypocritical in this world.

When it's needed, it's okay to cheat at times.

You want to sit in that seat,

but you don't want to get your hands dirty?

Either take my side...

or don't even dream of taking my position.

You should choose a side.

Every decision...

is followed by responsibility.

Do you know what your problem is?

You have a lot of greed, but you get scared too easily.

You were also like that with Na Kyung.

You could've had your fun and ended it with her.

But you let her drag you around because you were scared...

she might cause trouble.

And because of that, you ended up getting yourself in a mess.

He's still your grandson.

He isn't until he's born.

(Chairman Seo Mun Su)

He can't be registered as your son.

Otherwise, it'll cause trouble later on.

He needs to be registered as Jung Min's son...

so that he won't fight your future children for money.

And it'll also prevent him...

from dividing our business once I'm dead.

I'm starting to think that it's all useless.

- What's useless? - You...

don't care about your family.

You only care about this firm.

Stop being so emotional.

They no longer have a hidden card up their sleeve.

So dismantle them...

and get ready to file a lawsuit against them.

The discrepancy between us...

It's very tiring.

I thought I had gotten used to it.

You're always so mushy.

That's why you're having trouble winning Ji Eun's heart.

How are things going with her?

She's not an easy one to coax because she takes after her father.

She has a mind of her own, and she's honest.

So I like her.

A dragon needs its Cintamani to rise to the sky.

And Ji Eun is your Cintamani.

Do you really think...

so little of me?

I guess I'll have to work harder.

What are you looking at?

I was choosing what photos I should upload on social media.

Why don't you save that for later?

Your parents are probably upset that you're with me right now.

So if you rub it in like that,

you'll become a really bad daughter.

I don't get why they can't see what a great person you are.

Let's try what we can to calm their anger.

Let's try doing everything we can.

Can I be honest with you?

Unless you had a secret to your birth...

and you turned out to be the son...

of a really prestigious family,

it's going to be hopeless.

I'm embarrassed that my parents are so materialistic.

I'll just live a life of my own and be happy with you.

Let's be happy together.

Let's make each other giggle like children.

We can't always have fun.

We need to earn a living.

Why don't you let me work at your furniture studio?

But I don't need an assistant.

No, it's not that. You know I majored in Marketing.

Your designs are unique and have a competitive edge to them.

But you sell them at a cheap price,

so the downside is that you can't use high-quality materials.

You really are a businessman's daughter.

Listen to me carefully.

What if we standardize the products?

Of course, you'll get to choose what to design.

These days, interior design isn't just about...

the living room and bedroom. It's also about the kitchen.

So first, why don't we target...

the upper class and then make it more accessible...

to the public by creating a second brand?

Consumers in the US and Japan are individualistic...

when it comes to spending money.

But Koreans are influenced by what other people buy.

So you want to target the upper class...

and benefit from its ripple effect?

I can use my connections to give out samples...

to the upper class.

And I can gather the money we need.

- And as for the investment... - Wait.

What's wrong?

I think I saw someone in the garden.

Didn't you hear anything?

We have a guest.

Is it a lost dog?

Hey, you're not lost.

Did you also run away from home...

so you can be with the person you love?

Am I being too honest? Does it make you feel uncomfortable?

I respect your decision.

You made that choice so we could stay together.

Did my briefing make you feel uncomfortable?

No, let's think about it.

Really? I thought you'd say no.

The woman I love is very fond of money.

So I'm starting to think that I need to earn a lot...

in order to be with her.

The best revenge is to become successful.

"Revenge"?

I'm going to take revenge on my family.

You're adorable.

Unbelievable.

What? What's unbelievable?

Look at this.

("Bisang Apparel's Daughter Gets Involved in a Love Scandal")

("Is It the Birth of a Male Cinderella?")

("Eldest Daughter of Bisang Apparel Is Known To Be Dating Someone")

My gosh.

"The Birth of a Male Cinderella"?

Even I feel offended...

by such a vulgar headline.

It's going to make Se Hoon furious.

What do you expect? It's an article based on gossip.

This won't be good for them.

I know, right? Their love is putting them through so much.

But I have to say, it looks like they did a photoshoot.

Look.

I wonder if they know about the articles.

("A Conglomerate's Daughter Dates a Laborer's Son")

Your daughter is unbelievable.

Did you know that she was dating someone?

It looks like we won't be able to proceed with the merger.

It's better to turn you down than to promise you something...

that I won't be able to keep.

Then what about the promise we already made?

You can't always keep your word when you do business.

This is why I like you.

You're audacious and brazen even in this kind of situation.

Friends and enemies never last forever.

So just let it slide.

It's not like your son wasn't dating anyone else either.

Men and women are different.

I know you're quick to calculate what's best for you and what's not.

But you'd better watch out.

I came to tell you this myself.

Chairman Seo.

I want you to make the article bigger.

I want it to be the most searched article on the web.

I've seen enough negative articles.

Now, start writing fluff articles that support their relationship...

saying a conglomerate's daughter is dating a normal man.

Make sure you upload some positive comments as well.

Okay, bye.

They say parents are weak when it comes to their children.

Have you finally decided to let Ji Eun have it her way?

"I want to call you..."

"using the most beautiful word in this world."

"But regardless of how much I try,"

"I can't seem to find a better word..."

"than your name."

"My beloved Clara."

This is what Schumann wrote to his wife, Clara.

I see.

He didn't use any fancy words, but it's still very touching.

It's probably because it shows Schumann's sincerity.

Let's also spend...

the rest of our lives...

filled with love.

"A conglomerate's daughter dating a normal guy."

It's good for publicity.

It's not like it's their marriage announcement.

It's just about them dating.

So it won't become a flaw.

I know it'll get out of control once people add stories to it.

But in the long run, people will lose interest.

Does that mean you're going to approve of him?

When you convince someone, you need to use power, not words.

You need to show that things change from the outside...

just like the law of inertia.

Does that mean you approve of him or not?

In order to win this fight, I need to think outside the box.

If I can't control Ji Eun,

I need to start harassing him.

People in our country tend to think guys like him are petty...

because they think he's trying to benefit from the woman's family.

It's not a bad idea to see if Jang Se Hoon has what it takes...

to endure being treated that way.

- Hello? - I'm Ji Eun's father.

Are you interested in making a deal with me?

(Phoenix 2020)

I see Ji Eun everywhere.

Can't you even look at me in the eyes?

Let's stop being pretentious.

- Is it because of Lee Ji Eun? - I'm tired. Let's stop here.

Are you angry at me,

or are you angry at yourself?

I have the document regarding Seorin's layoff project.

If you promise to break up with my daughter,

- I'll give this to you. - I will not break up with Ji Eun.
