Ji Eun, I bet I'm the only guy...

who can handle a woman like you.

Are we having a staring contest?

How did you know
I wanted to cry today?

A prince always knows
where his princess is.

That guy at Bonita Textile...
I gave him a good beating.

If I end up in jail,

you'd better visit
and give me outside food.

I overheard his conversation
at the driving range.

I overheard it by coincidence.

Why did you only give him
a good beating?

You should've beaten him
to a pulp.

I see you still have your temper.

Why don't we go for a walk?

Did you wait for me to call or not?

I'm not going to tell you.

That obviously means
you waited for me to call.

So I guess I was right.

We both had mutual feelings
for each other.

You're right.
You made my heart flutter.

You made me feel a certain way.

But I'm not in the situation...

to risk my life for those emotions.

Gosh, you're being negative again.

We're living in
different environments,

I have a difficult life,

and I have to let go of many things.

You know all that.

When you say you have to let go,

are you talking about Jang Se Hoon?

Do you still have feelings
left for him?

Divorce makes you completely
turn your backs on each other.

It's over between us.

That's good.

But of course, I've already decided
not to be bothered by it.

Jung Min.

This might not be
any of my business,

but I'd like to know why
you suddenly decided to work...

at Seorin Group.

If you want to know, I'll tell you.

I figured I needed
to break down a wall.

The wall between me and my father.

We both hurt each other a lot.

I always tried to run away
from him...

because I hated how he tried
to control my life.

But I suddenly thought...

I could've been the one
who built that wall between us.

So don't even think
that I joined the company...

because of Jang Se Hoon.

Ji Eun, you told me...

not to forget that you are
who you are right now.

And that's when I told you...

that I like who you are right now,

not who you were in the past.

Let's not let Jang Se Hoon
come in between us from now on.

I personally think
we all meet the wrong person...

until we finally meet our soulmates.

Jung Min, why do you like me?

Because I feel like...

you're just the right person for me.

I feel like you can teach me
what love is.

That's why...

I want to have the right...

to be your man.

Love is a good thing,

and it's a noble thing we feel.

But it could be nothing more
than an emotion.

But love can also make you happy.

I know love doesn't always work out,

and it happens naturally.

So I decided not to rush anything.

I'm going to wait
until you fall in love with me too.

So right now,
I'm going to time out...

and come up with a strategy.

There's another thing
I'm very good at.

I'm very patient.

What's this supposed to mean?

It doesn't look like you're here
to make up with me.

I just bought them for you.
You love red roses.

Is this a breakup gift?

Do you want a nice breakup
just like a scene from a movie?

I'm not here to fight.

I figured we needed to talk.

You hurt me,

and you even want me
to understand you?

I guess I picked the wrong day.

It looks like you need more time
to feel better.

How do you expect me to feel better?

Mi Ran.

I know you ended up in a wheelchair
because of the accident,

and I know that really hurt you,

but no one can help you
overcome that.

You need to overcome it yourself...

in order to be able to breathe.

You're the one who hurt me...

and made me get angry at you.

You have no right to tell me...

that I'm at fault for
ruining our relationship.

It started the moment
you had feelings for someone else.

And of course, people always change
for a reason.

And for you, it was Lee Ji Eun.

How long did you know?

Is that really important?

But if you think about it,

you're just as pitiful as I am.

You desire to be loved
by someone...

who no longer loves you.

Should I make Ji Eun
fall for you again?

If things don't work out
between Ji Eun and Jung Min,

she might come back to you.

So I called Chairman Seo...

so I could tell him
that your ex-wife...

is currently dating his son.

Mi Ran!

Don't you raise your voice at me!

Don't worry.

Luckily enough, his wife picked up.

So I didn't get to say anything.

I hung up because I couldn't stop
thinking about you.

I didn't want to put you in a pickle
at Seorin Group.

Why do you hate her so much?

Why do you
torture yourself like this?

Then what else can I do?

Let me tell you something.

Being obsessed with you...

is the only thing I can do...

to show how frustrated I am
with my pitiful life.

I actually knew...

that you were...

planning to break up with me
before the accident.

Then my legs got paralyzed,

and I even tried to kill myself.

So that's why you couldn't leave me.

I was grateful.

I was so grateful for you.

I was abandoned by my parents
as a baby,

and I even ended up in a wheelchair.

And you were the best thing
that ever happened to me.

But now the world is
trying to take you away from me.

And am I just supposed to sit back
and do nothing?

You should've just
left me back then.

Why did you promise
to stay by my side?

If you had left me there to die,

I wouldn't be
living such a miserable life!

I'm sorry.

I really meant it
when I made you that promise.

But I guess my compassion
only made you feel more miserable.

I'm sorry.

You really know
how to make me feel sad.

Mi Ran.

Compassion...

wasn't the only thing
I felt toward you.

I liked you.

I fell for your charm.

And I even held you in my arms.

But you and I both told each other
from the start...

that we weren't interested in
getting married.

I know I'm selfish.

But can't you try to understand me?

I want to be free.

I don't want to be tied down
by anyone.

Your feelings for Ji Eun
are useless.

Don't you get that?

Ji Eun doesn't like you anymore.

It's not because of her.

After I met her again,

it did remind me of our past.

But I don't intend on
starting over with her again.

But you're obviously...

still not over her.

Then let me try to understand you.

It's better to do that
if I can't stop you.

I'll wait until you get over her.

Breaking up with the person you love
is way harder.

Will, I love you so much.

Look at the sky.

"I cannot quite finish
counting all those stars..."

"that are settling in my heart..."

"because mornings have a way
of coming swiftly,"

"because tomorrow's night
is still yet to come,"

"and because the fire of my youth
hasn't burned out yet."

"I see memories in one star,"

"and love in another."

"I see loneliness,"

"my longings,"

"and poetry."

"And in another, I see..."

And I see you,

Ji Eun.

It's like we're playing
hide-and-seek.

But you're going to lose.

My feelings may be
way ahead of yours,

but they couldn't be more sincere.

Sorry for visiting
at such a late hour.

I'm sorry.

I could've given it to you tomorrow
at work. You didn't have to come.

I was on my way home
after working out,

and I figured I'd pick it up
and read it at home.

It's in my study. Wait here.

Se Hoon.

Didn't Ji Eun used to live
in this neighborhood?

What?

This used to be Ji Eun's house?

I don't know...

my ulterior motive is.

I don't know what it is that I want.

Wait a minute.
Then did you also return to Korea...

because of Ji Eun?

I don't want to lie to you.

You don't want to lie?

That means there's more to tell me.

After Seorin offered me a position,

I imagined myself
returning to Korea,

and that made me think of Ji Eun.

I found out she was single...

and that she was
living a difficult life.

It made me want to help her.

I wanted to give this house
to Ji Eun...

once I left.

You're leaving? Where to?

Oh, are you planning
to go back to the States...

once your contract period
with Seorin is over?

Yes.

You're unbelievable.

You should've
looked for her earlier.

Isn't it too late now?

I guess I didn't have the courage
up until now.

I started taking action...

once I reached a dead end.

What's that supposed to mean?

It doesn't mean much.

I feel like you're still
hiding something from me.

I'm not hiding anything.

You keep being really vague today,

so I can't help but be suspicious.

My gosh, you talk as if you're
about to die or something.

I need to go to the bathroom.

Ho Jin, my body is
heating up right now.

That means my condition is
getting worse.

I'm completely hopeless,

and that's probably why I'm able
to stay so cool-headed.

What are you watching?

Oh, this?

It's about this guy who married
a terminally ill patient.

It really breaks my heart.

I know it makes you feel sad,

but I bet you respect his choice
only because he's a stranger.

Would you let your own child
marry someone...

who's terminally ill?

Of course,
it won't be easy to approve.

I feel bad for that couple.

Life becomes meaningless
the moment you die.

I shouldn't ask for too much.

What is it that you want to ask for?

There's this guy that I really want.

But I'm going to give up now.

A guy? What kind of guy?

It's this guy who likes Ji Eun.

He comes from a really rich family.

He may be rich,

but that's not all that matters.

What matters is whether or not
he's a decent man.

And you need to check out
his parents too.

How did a nasty guy like him...

end up with such a decent son
like Jung Min?

How do you know
if he's decent or not...

when you haven't even met him
that many times?

I can tell.

I have an amazing eye for people.

Don't just fall for his background.

You should take a thorough look
at him and his surroundings.

What are you doing this weekend?

- Why?
- I told you we should go together.

I know someone
who works at a broadcasting station.

I told that person about you.

I'm just a fool who lost his kid.

There's nothing much to say on TV.

Do you know what comes
to my mind sometimes?

I registered my DNA sample,

and my son should be
all grown up now.

So if he wanted to find me,
he would've done so already.

But he hasn't, and maybe
that's because he doesn't want to.

Maybe he doesn't even know
he was lost.

I thought about it,

and if he knows he was adopted,

he would've naturally looked for
his biological parents.

At least that's what we think.

But if he hasn't
reached out to you yet...

even if he's still alive,

the parents who adopted him
might not have told him.

Like you said,

it'd be great if he was adopted
by a nice family,

but who knows?

So you should tell your story on TV.

His adoptive parents are
probably old now,

and they might change their mind.

Let's think of
all the possibilities.

Are you going to continue
living in despair...

instead of getting back
on your feet?

If I go on TV
and succeed in finding my son,

I'll give you
every single penny I own.

You'd better have that notarized.

(Seorin)

(Director Seo Jung Min)

You're wearing a bright suit today.

And you have a smile on your face.

Mr. Seo, you must be dating.

I guess I can't hide my expressions.

It's nice to see you this bright.

It's my first time
attending a meeting today.

I'm a little nervous.

In order to rise to the top,

you'll eventually
have to exceed Mr. Jang,

but you need him right now,

you should hold hands with him
for now.

I want to seize initiative.

It's not good to be too stubborn.

It'll only backfire on you.

You should always be open
to making up with him.

I know I should listen
to your advice.

But maybe not today.

Is your father doing well?

After he retired from
being a minister,

he went to the countryside
and started a small farm.

It's been about three years
since he left, right?

I truly respect your father.

He enjoys the comfortable life
he has there.

Let's go inside.

Oh, hey. Mr. Jang.

Why are you just standing there?

It looks like he's ready to have
a full-scale war already.

Chung Group is asking for
over 50 percent of the shares.

More and more foreign capital
keeps leaving the country,

so I don't think it's a good idea
for us to hold hands with them.

I disagree.

A CEO should know...

how to look into the future
with a broader mind.

It's been a long time
since many companies...

started focusing
on the Chinese market.

And the Chinese market...

is almost as big as the US market.

So I think we need to hold hands
with Chung Group...

and come up with
a long term strategy...

to stabilize our position
in the Chinese market.

Every company knows the limit
of our domestic market.

It's true that the Chinese market
holds great potential,

but it also has many variables...

based on different
political situations.

But if you don't take risk,
you gain nothing.

China is known as the last bastion
of the global economy,

and that means we should invest
in the long term effects.

It only seems like you're unwilling
to give it a shot...

because you're scared
it might bring...

negative results
during your contract period.

When you run a business,
you need to make a choice...

in order to reach your goal.

You need to analyze
the predictable environment,

and you must be prepared
to solve the possible problems...

and know how to position
our company in the market.

Isn't that the basics
of business management?

Let me ask you something.
Are you just scared...

that your competence
might come into question?

That's enough.

You both have a point.

Try your best to cooperate
with Director Seo.

I believe our conflict
can help Seorin...

take a bigger leap in the market.

If we don't make any profit,
you both will get fired immediately.

I know very well
that you always played fair...

to achieve success.

I respect you for that.

But if you want to fight against me,
you need to be ready for a race.

Because I won't give in.

If we decide to do a joint project,

someone will be put in charge.

And that will either lead you
to follow my orders...

or lead me to follow yours.

It'll be either one or the other.

- That's how power works.
- Of course.

Power can't be divided into two.

You used this, didn't you?

I told you not to use my cosmetics.

I didn't even touch it.

You think I don't know you?

Mom.

I only use this for my face,

but you always use my toner
for your body.

Why do you use something
that's not even yours?

What?

Are you seriously
going to be like that?

Mom, I accidentally spilled
some of your toner while cleaning.

I forgot to tell you.

Unbelievable.

People don't even
treat their dogs this way.

That little brat.

You were too mean to her.

You shouldn't have
accused her like that.

Think of all that she's done.

I'll buy you a new toner
on my way home.

Where are you going?
Do you have another interview?

I'm going to drop off the documents
that I translated,

and a guy I know is...

going to introduce me
to another translating gig.

The guy you know
just sent you a text.

What do you mean? Give me that.

"You're coming to the advertising
agency this afternoon, right?"

"I have a meeting this afternoon."

"So wait until tonight
even if you miss me."

Are you seeing Jung Min again?

It's not what you think, Mom.

You always act so innocent.

But then again,

Ji Eun was always great
at surprising us.

You can keep
surprising me like this.

Tell me what happened.

Did Jung Min tell you
that he doesn't care about Se Hoon?

No, it's nothing like that.
We just decided to be friends.

Now that things worked out with him,

you just need to get
his father's approval.

Mom.

I'm never going to
get married again.

I'll get a job
and have you live in luxury.

So don't get any funny ideas.

Do you have any idea
how long that will take?

Who knows?
I might get lucky one day.

Ma'am, are you okay?
Let me help you.

How are you
going to carry these apples?

I have an idea. Just a second.

Here.

It looks like you need this
more than I do.

But I feel so bad.

Are you sure I can take this?

Then why don't you give me
an apple in return?

Thank you.

It's really sweet.

Mr. Chung.

I can't believe this.

You're Ms. Lee,
the team manager at Bisang Apparel.

I didn't know
you were so fluent in Korean.

She's my mother-in-law.

I got remarried to a Korean woman.

That's why I learned Korean.

Congratulations.

How have you been?

I tried looking for you back then,

but I didn't know how.

Jung Min went to meet a client...

after we finished our meeting.

- I see.
- We don't know the results yet,

but you did a great job
in translating...

the advertisement we made
for Chung Group.

The person who looked over
your work told me...

that there are lots of translators,

but there aren't many
who have the right kind of mindset.

And she asked me where I found
a gem like you.

That's how...

you got yourself another job.

Thank you.

By the way, do you also know this?

Our advertising agency
will be joining Seorin's TF team...

to help them with the marketing
regarding their joint project...

with Chung Group.

That's great.
You wanted to be a part of it.

I'm starting to wonder
if it's a good idea.

I know I was able to get
this opportunity...

because Jung Min
joined Seorin Group.

But I feel a little uneasy about it.

Why?

During today's meeting,

he had a pretty big conflict
with Mr. Jang.

It was as if Jung Min
was determined...

to bring him down.

He won't tell me what's going on,

so I'm asking you instead.

Do you know
what happened between them?

I thought you might know.

During today's meeting,

he had a pretty big conflict
with Mr. Jang.

It was as if Jung Min
was determined...

to bring him down.

So don't even think
that I joined the company...

because of Jang Se Hoon.

(Seorin)

(Emergency)

My goodness.

The elevator must be broken.

What's going on?

What if someone's inside
the elevator?

Send someone from the facility team.
Hurry.

- What's going on?
- Someone's inside?

- Is there really someone inside?
- My gosh, this is bad.

Check what's going on.

- Can you please hurry?
- Okay.

Did you call 911?

What's taking them so long?

Se Hoon, Ji Eun got locked inside
the elevator.

What?

- What floor is it?
- She's on the third floor.

My gosh.

Sir, are you okay?

Ji Eun! Ji Eun!

Se Hoon.

You're okay. You're okay now.

I'm here now.

(Phoenix 2020)

This man has entered my life again.

I feel like I'm trapped in a maze.

Ji Eun was trapped inside
the elevator.

And Mr. Jang came outside
carrying her in his arms...

and desperately calling her name.

That's enough.

I'll step away
once Ji Eun officially becomes...

your woman.

Then I guess
this fight isn't going to end.
