You must've sold your soul...

while kissing up to Mama's.

That's a bit harsh.

My soul has already been sold...

to Papa Group. And Look what happened to me.

Don't victimise yourself.

The vote can still go either way so don't get too anxious.

Your wife is here,

so I hope you enjoy dinner.

I'm heading out to meet a shareholder.

Although the house is old, it doesn't feel that way.

My father took good care of it.

He fixed every inch of the house that needed repairs...

and gave it so much love.

I see.

He'd come straight home from the office...

to take care of the house and his children.

Min Soo's a lot like him so he'll be a good father too.

Ah Young and Ho Young also grew up in my father's hands.

That must be why they're so mature.

He's been a father and a mother to us,

but ever since my marriage,

I've done nothing but bring him frustration.

I'm sure that's not true.

Now he'll see my marriage end.

I've failed him again.

What matters is how you move forward.

Well, I hope that you'll be better to him.

I will.

- Here you are. - Hi, Min Soo.

- We should head out. - Sure.

Where on earth is this Choi Choong Bok?

Is that him?

- Are you Mr Choi? - I am.

Here you go.

(Identification Card)

I know this isn't the most ideal situation for you,

but cut back on the calls.

- Sorry? - It's best...

not to leave any trails.

What if it leads to us getting caught?

Right now you need to be patient.

Once Sang Ho is CEO, he'll reward you.

Don't you know who I'm doing this for?

So?

Are you saying you want credit?

You're his cousin, right?

That's right.

I'm staying off the grid...

and that includes not talking to my kids.

I don't know if it's worth it.

Look.

To strike big, sacrifices must be made.

This might be the easy part, so brace yourself and stay strong.

I wonder if you'd say that...

if you were in hiding to save your cousin.

As if I'd ever do such a thing.

He sure is weak for someone with a name that means "loyal servant".

He'll cave almost instantly.

- Min Soo came by to see you? - Yes.

Once he's in charge,

he said he'd bring up the share price.

He was quite compelling.

Compelling enough to make me rethink my vote.

You must be weaker than I thought.

Mama's insisted that I vote for you as CEO,

so I will comply,

but it'll be sad to see Min Soo go.

That's because you don't know who he really is.

What do you mean by that?

- Let's eat. You must be hungry. - Sure.

Sang Ho seems to have many shareholders on his side.

We might be in trouble.

I'm worried too.

Don't you two own enough percentage of the shares?

Combined, we own 10 percent.

The shareholders on our side own seven percent collectively.

That's not enough since we need at least 21 percent.

With Sang Ho only owning three,

I thought I was a shoo-in for CEO,

but someone's been pulling strings.

What do you mean?

Mama's has been persuading shareholders...

to vote for Sang Ho.

He has Mama's on his back?

That means once he's CEO, he'll sell us over to them.

He's the CEO of a tiny wedding hall.

Hara Wedding Hall...

is far from "tiny", don't you think?

He had spark in his eyes.

I could tell that he was diligent and wasn't afraid to take risks.

His prestigious upbringing made him soft.

He's all talk and no game.

How are you different then?

I'm an orphan who made it to Harvard all on his own.

I taught myself English and still managed to be fluent.

I'd chain myself to my desk for 10 hours a day.

In terms of determination,

I'm the most worthy candidate.

I don't want to show off,

but I am a success story.

I hate that he still lives here.

Even though we have photos, he tried lying his way out again.

He just won't divorce me.

Even if divorce isn't an option, one of us still has to leave.

We need to be separated.

Father won't be able to stand him any more.

I know.

We should eat before all the food gets cold.

Come on.

Is this all that you have?

You know I don't cook.

Besides, didn't you eat before you left for the meeting?

Eun Hee was there, so I lost my appetite.

She'll come by often now that she's family.

Sun Young seems to be getting along well with her.

She plans to kick me out and have her move in.

What are you going to do?

I can't take that,

so I should move out.

You'll be separated?

Sun Young wants a divorce,

so I'll move out to give her space and focus on the general meeting.

I need to meet more shareholders anyway.

Where will you stay?

Here, of course.

Fine.

Just promise me you'll buy a bigger house later...

and take me with you.

Why not?

- What's wrong? - It's hot.

Unbelievable.

It's awfully nice to have you both over here.

Grandma, can we really come by often?

Of course.

Having you here has made her look 10 years younger.

- You look younger than that. - What?

Now you're just making fun of her.

I'm not. Look at how fair her skin is.

She's prettier than any granny I know.

My gosh.

Where did you learn how to flatter people like that?

Probably from me.

But you really are pretty.

I'll gladly make you dinner any time,

so stop with the flattery.

I'm not joking though.

Then I'm grateful.

How nice is it to have three sweet little puppies?

I'm ecstatic.

Well, it's late. We should get going.

Yes, of course. I lost track of time.

Thank you for dinner. We'll be back again.

Sure, any time.

- I'll see them off. - Okay.

Min Soo,

are you worried you might lose to Sang Ho?

You didn't smile once during dinner today.

I am.

I didn't go into detail since it'll worry Sun Young,

but Sang Ho has been gaining power.

I see.

Rumours are spreading that he's favoured,

which in return has made many turn to him too.

Also, I've been hearing things.

Did you two just get back?

I see you did too.

- That's right. - We had plans.

You better not be fooling around.

We'd never. Just as you would never too.

Good. Now Ho Young,

make sure that she stays away from that rat.

- Good night then. - Have you had dinner?

- Yes. - Where?

What's with the 20 questions today?

Your extreme interest in us is too overwhelming.

Where did you have dinner?

- At a delicious restaurant. - I see.

We should talk.

Sure. Let's have a seat.

What do you want from me?

Isn't it obvious?

I just want you.

Are you an alien?

What on earth does that mean?

Others would grovel after what you did,

but you don't seem at all fazed.

What did I do wrong?

Are you kidding me?

I know I apologise earlier about the photos,

but nothing happened at the hotel with Da Hee.

She was under a lot of stress and needed a change of scenery.

I was only there to comfort her. Nothing happened.

What?

The photo of us kissing?

You know how she likes to joke around.

She caught me off guard.

You've got to be kidding me.

You're the one who's overreacting.

Just because I've been apologising about everything,

doesn't mean that I did something terrible.

I can assure you that I did nothing of the sort.

For now, we should at least be separated.

I've had it with you saying things first.

Besides, it's no fun being nagged by you constantly anyway.

Then sign the divorce papers.

Here. All it needs is our signature.

Let's end this. Right here, right now.

I've had it with you.

Finally, you show your true colours.

That's right, Princess. This is who I am.

Now you know.

Then you know what to do next.

Take off that mask once and for all.

I'll be appointed as the new CEO.

When I am,

you'll grovel at my feet.

Come at me again and I'll have...

all of your family behind bars.

What?

I won't divorce her, Sir.

My life is nothing without her.

I only lied about Da Hee because that was...

my only option then.

Enough!

He has some nerve.

Even till his final breath, he'll break my daughter's heart.

For what reason would they go to jail for?

Once I'm CEO,

I could easily concoct a good excuse.

There are many crimes I could accuse them of.

Separation?

I'd like that too.

You didn't have to tell me to leave at all.

I'd rather die than spend another second here.

If you need a place to stay,

I'll lend you one of my properties.

Why would I need yours when I have Da Hee?

You're the one...

who's been desperately forcing us together.

Now you'll get your wish. I'll go and stay with her.

Whatever you go is up to you.

Dad will be home in a few days, so leave before then.

What will you tell our children?

That you kicked me out because I committed adultery?

It's not a crime any more in Korea, remember?

But it's the truth.

You're too considerate...

to hurt our children like that.

They might figure it out,

even though we don't tell them anything.

You know how smart they are.

I'd rather save face when it comes to the kids.

Then tell them yourself why we're separating.

Being a pathological liar, it won't be too difficult.

Anyway, be gone by tomorrow.

Separation?

Why not?

I have nothing to lose anyway.

I'll be appointed as the new CEO.

When I am,

you'll grovel at my feet.

Come at me again and I'll have...

all of your family behind bars.

(Pre-order Salted Napa Cabbage)

I'm thinking about ordering 50 cabbages.

Why so many?

Some are for Eun Hee and her in-laws.

I see. Don't they have someone who makes kimchi though?

Still, you know how delicious my kimchi is.

You're right about that.

Anyway, I'm thinking about buying 10 cabbages.

- Sounds good. - Right.

- Let's take this one. - Be careful, it's heavy.

- Let me help. - Sure.

Mama's asked us...

to vote for Kim Sang Ho.

I'm sorry, but you should ask elsewhere.

We can't let it happen.

Our father poured his life into this company.

We can't let Kim Sang Ho take it from him.

Remember what you promised.

I'll ask the children to...

a family meeting tonight.

We should at least explain to them.

You want us to talk about us separating over a meal?

"Kids, I don't want to, but your mother insists on a divorce."

"There's a man she's been meeting for brunch these days."

"He might be your stepfather, so you should look into him."

How's that?

Say whatever you want.

Leave Da Hee out of it...

and I'll leave him out too.

Kim Sang Ho.

You sad excuse of a man.

Look who's talking.

Whatever.

Just think of what you'll say to the kids.

You cow!

Min Soo.

- Are you off already? - Yes.

I want to see what the shareholders think...

and look into what Sang Ho's been up to.

You should eat breakfast though.

I will. Can you check in with my father?

Of course.

The chili flakes are a nice shade of red.

My gosh.

You're doing gimjang already?

I'm using sun-dried chilli flakes this year.

Why do it alone when I could help after work?

It's only 10 cabbages. It won't take me long.

Here. Tell me what you think.

- It's good. - Really?

Try it this time with an oyster.

Is it fresh?

It is.

- Can I have another? - Sure.

Hello?

Father, have you had breakfast?

We're having some right now before we go to work.

Thank you for calling. I'll be home tomorrow.

The house felt empty...

without you there to greet us.

I see. Well, I'm sorry about that.

We'll come by again tomorrow.

Should I put Min Soo on?

That's all right. I'm about to eat breakfast anyway.

I see. Enjoy your meal then.

I will. We'll talk again soon.

Thanks.

Did you just call this delicious?

Of course. It's not something you eat every day.

You should go and eat breakfast too.

I'll get some later on.

Then join me instead.

I'm good, Sir. It's not enough anyway.

You're right. It really isn't.

Did your mother tell you about today's family meeting?

Yes.

What's it about?

Something quite serious.

I bet I know what it is.

We'll talk later this evening.

The soup is delicious today.

Eat up, you two. I'm all done.

The day has finally come.

I know.

Sun Young.

Maybe I should go to a different coffee shop.

Why? Because of me?

Yes.

Then I'll go to somewhere else.

Please don't. You love it here.

I like their coffee and how it's quiet here.

I've tried other places,

but I always come back.

You'll see what I mean...

once you try other places too.

I see.

Did you two...

argue that night?

It's like living in a war zone.

However, it's finally come to an end.

While we're separated,

I'll be filing for divorce.

- Hi, Jung Hoon. - Hello, Sir.

- How's Hae In? - She's good.

Sir, are you aware of the strange rumours going around?

Regarding what?

Principal Kim is already appointing members...

to serve on his board of directors.

I'm somewhat aware of it.

They've been meeting in private...

and addressing themselves as CEO and Director.

I appreciate the Intel. Let me know if you know more.

Of course.

Director Park!

Hello, Principal Kim.

Right. For now, that is my title.

I heard your followers were already calling you CEO Kim.

It's a shame that I'm not good at flattery.

Like I need that from you.

Just be ready to clear your desk once I become CEO.

Either that or you'll have to pledge...

your full service to me.

You barely own 3,000 shares, right?

You have me wrong.

Even if the world is turned upside down,

I'll never serve you as my CEO.

You'll never be rewarded by being that stubborn.

I'm a good judge of character.

If you become the new CEO,

Papa Group won't have a future.

So even if you ask me to stay,

I'll resign...

for my own sake.

As you were.

The little git has style, I'll give him that.

His words mean nothing to me though.

Has anyone talked to the choir recently?

I called them this morning.

Professor Jang is in the hospital.

What? Why?

Apparently, there's a tumour in her breast.

She wasn't able to put off the surgery any longer.

- Which hospital? - Eosan Hospital.

- I should give her a call. - Sure.

I can't believe it.

- Jin Ho. - Yes?

Have some carrot juice.

I hear it's good for those suffering from...

- haemorrhoids. - Haemorrhoids?

Thanks. This isn't like you.

Of course it is. I'm being a good colleague.

Good colleagues, you say?

As a sign of my appreciation,

I'll help you out in the best way I can.

Would you like me to set you up?

- What? - My gosh.

I'm so jealous.

First you catch Eun Hee's bouquet and now this.

You should go on the date instead then.

I'm good. I'm not interested in meeting random men anyway.

All I need is just the one.

What's wrong with her?

You don't have to set me up with anyone.

It's all good.

How about this weekend? I'll tell you when.

Hang on a second.

Sir!

He forgot this.

You should take him up on his offer.

Who knows? You might like him.

The person you have reached is unavailable.

Hello.

I couldn't reach Professor Jang...

and I wanted to know which room she was in.

Sir, I'll pop off to the store for a while.

Sure. Take your time.

I'll...

wash up a bit and go on a walk outside.

Yes, Sir.

Oh my gosh!

This is my room.

Who are you?

I'm sorry,

but I think you're in the wrong room.

Aren't you CEO Na?

Min Soo's father.

That's right.

We met at his wedding.

I'm a good friend and client of the couple.

I see.

I think you're in the wrong room though.

Isn't this Room 1109?

No, this is Room 1009.

My gosh.

I must've gotten off the wrong floor...

and didn't look to check.

My room's in the same spot, just on a different floor.

So you're staying in Room 1109.

That's right.

So what brings you to the hospital?

Min Soo, Professor Jang is in the hospital.

I'm heading over there during my lunch break.

Okay. Tell her I said hi.

I'm done with my surgery and will check out tomorrow.

What about you?

I'm checking out tomorrow as well.

I've been ill for a while now,

but I haven't taken a good care of myself.

Since you're here, you should stay for some tea.

- Why not? - Let's have a seat.

Enjoy lunch, everyone.

I'm off to visit Professor Jang at the hospital.

- Sure. See you later. - Bye.

- Bye. - Carry on.

That reminds me.

If you...

come across my children...

Yes?

Please don't tell them you saw me here.

Of course.

They're busy as it is around the office...

and I didn't want to burden them with this.

Besides, it wasn't much of a surgery anyway.

I see.

I don't have any family,

so I always come to hospitals alone.

I've actually gotten quite used to it.

I see.

Anyway, I won't tell them.

Thank you for the tea.

Don't mention it.

Secretary Jang?

Secretary Jang!

- Secretary Jang. - Ma'am.

Hello.

Didn't you go away with Father?

- Why are you in the hospital? - Well...

That's...

Did something happen to him?

Please be honest with me.

Well...

Father!

Eun Hee.

What are you doing here?

I'm sorry, Sir.

How could you?

Sang Ho isn't alone.

There are people doing his bidding for him.

Probably those hired by Mama's.

Right.

Sang Ho, thinking that he's already won,

has been appointing those in his inner circle...

as the new board of directors.

- So I've heard. - His goal all along...

was to report Father before the general meeting.

The way he's been contacting the shareholders...

makes me think that this was carefully planned.

Once Mama's release its new snack,

Papa Group's shares will plummet once again.

That's when we buy them with all the money we have.

Okay.

Will that guarantee our win?

Of course.

SD Corporation is my biggest worry.

They've been buying our shares consistently over the years.

Who's the CEO?

It's an investment company located in Bermuda.

The owner on paper is a Korean-American named Bob Kim.

They don't seem to have any connections to Korea though.

Bermuda?

A company there is our shareholder?

That's right.

I'm not sure if they'd attend the general meeting.

Even if they do,

who knows which candidate they'd vote for?

If only we could meet them in person.

I can't seem to get in touch with the CEO.

They own three percent of our shares...

which is just as much as Sang Ho owns.

They've been consistently buying more over the years.

I can't wait for the general meeting.

The look on Sun Young's face will be priceless.

SD Corporation.

It's a beautiful name.

Who'd possibly guess that I'm the one who owns the company?

- S for Sang Ho. - Right.

- D for Da Hee. - Exactly.

I put a lot of thought into the name.

Tell Bob to fly in ahead of time so that...

he can attend the meeting too.

Don't worry. He'll be here right away.

Cheers.
