(Episode 88)

If you hadn't called the cops that day,

Alley could've lived.

She died because of you.

You killed her!

You made her die.

So I'm going to destroy everything you have.

I only came here to take revenge for Alley.

A Jun.

I reported you to the cops.

What does that have anything to do with Alley's death?

You were part of a gang when you were 17 years old.

- How could I not call the cops? - Alley could've lived...

if you hadn't called the cops that day.

What in the world... What are you talking about?

Alley died due to an accident.

She got shot and died during a riot.

If only you hadn't taken the bag full of drugs from her,

she'd still be alive.

But because you took it from her,

she lied that the bag was stolen...

by another gang just so she could protect you.

That's why she got kidnapped.

But because you called the cops,

those gang members just shot and killed her.

I found out...

pretty recently.

And it turns out you were the one...

who called the cops.

Why didn't you tell me?

Why didn't you tell me that Alley was kidnapped?

What if I did?

What if I told you?

If I told you,

you would've lectured me and called the cops anyway.

But still, you should've told me!

Then what about you?

Why didn't you tell me that you called the cops?

A Jun.

A Jun, you were only 17.

You were a twisted kid.

Do you think you would've understood...

if I told you I called the cops for your own sake?

You would've never understood.

- You would've become more hostile. - Who do you think you are?

Who do you think you are to make decisions for me?

You took away my chance...

to save Alley.

But I had no idea.

I cried in front of you.

I leaned on you...

and depended on you.

I was dumb enough not to know I was fooled.

- A Jun. - Don't call my name!

Don't call my name.

For years, I blamed myself for not being able to save Alley...

and was practically out of my mind.

You took away my chance...

to save Alley.

So this time, it's my turn to take something from you.

I'm going to take...

everything that you ever wish for.

Why are you still up?

I couldn't seem to sleep.

Do you also want some tea, Mom?

No, I'm good.

Is there something going on?

Are things not going well with work?

Things aren't so bad.

Then did you fight with Jung Min?

No, we didn't fight.

We just had an argument.

Why did you have an argument when you both love each other?

I'm not sure. I wonder why.

Maybe you were busy saying what was on your mind...

instead of thinking about it in the other person's shoes.

When something happens,

people want others to take their side.

And we get especially upset if the person we love...

doesn't take our side.

Judging by that smile, I'm guessing you didn't take Jung Min's side.

You're really good, Mom.

You should text Jung Min.

Tell him you'll always be on his side.

Text him, okay?

I regret that I never took your dad's side.

That upset him.

Then we slowly drifted apart.

And later on, that led to hatred.

Don't end up regretting it like me.

If you love someone, you should always stay close.

So you should try to understand Jung Min.

(My Man, Seo Jung Min)

I'll always be on your side no matter what, Jung Min.

Why did you want to meet me at this hour?

I'm here to tell you something.

My friendship with Jung Min is finally over.

So you don't need to try so hard.

You agreed to let go of all your resentment...

- and forgive him. - I changed my mind.

Jung Min thinks I'm a joke,

so I'm going to beat him.

A Jun, what's wrong with you?

I'm the one cutting you slack.

How dare you put on an arrogant face and try to lecture me?

Jung Min was sensitive for a reason.

- He saw us... - I don't want to hear it.

Don't take Jung Min's side.

Don't try to blame someone else for your scars.

You just want to blame it on someone because you feel guilty.

So you're looking for someone to resent.

I thought you understood me.

Were you only pretending to understand me...

because you didn't want Jung Min to get hurt?

No, that's not true.

I also used to blame someone and was filled with resentment.

I felt guilty for my dad's death,

so I needed someone to resent.

But you know that's not right, A Jun.

We're all responsible for our own scars.

So don't do anything you'll regret.

You're a good person.

You're a good person...

who cares for Jung Min more than anyone.

I guess Jung Min is more important to you.

- That's not what I'm saying. - Don't try to talk me out of it.

You can't convince me, Ji Eun.

Jung Min.

I can hear you crying.

And most importantly, I'm worried how much it must've hurt.

I feel like an empty shell.

A Jun totally knocked me out.

It's nice that I have another part-time job.

But will you really be okay without a chef?

Why wouldn't there be a chef?

I'm going to receive talent donation.

"Talent donation"? What are you talking about?

I know I'm only in charge during the weekends,

but there needs to be an increase in sales...

in order for my stepdad to give me this restaurant.

So I thought about how to do that.

And I came up with an amazing idea.

I'm going to give couples the opportunity...

to see what it's like to be a chef for a day.

That's kind of similar to celebrities...

opening up a restaurant for a TV program.

But that's not your idea. You just copied it.

It's called benchmarking.

I think it's a pretty good idea.

Then I won't have to pay for the chefs,

and couples will get to experience what it's like to be a chef...

while saving money and time.

It's a win-win for everyone.

I already have people lined up to apply.

Should Bok Ja and I also apply?

Didn't you guys break up?

No, we didn't.

I heard when someone overreacts, it's because it's true.

I don't know what Bok Ja wants.

Then just find out.

How?

I heard Bok Ja went on a blind date with that Lee An guy...

and is still deciding whether to date him or just be friends.

You don't need to tell me in so much detail.

Let's invite them here tonight.

And do what?

Bok Ja knows I'm interested in you.

Wait a minute.

You're really interested in me?

- Is that wrong? - Yes, it's wrong.

That's why I'm not hitting on you.

So what's your plan?

Yeo Jin, I'll pretend to hit on you.

Let's check how Bok Ja reacts to that.

If she doesn't seem to care, that means it's over.

But if she gets angry,

that means she still has feelings for you.

Why are you helping me?

Me?

Because I like that friend of hers.

He has a nice background.

What? Didn't you just tell me that you're interested in me?

That doesn't mean we're dating.

Gosh, you like having a pool of men around you, don't you?

Well, I wouldn't say no to that.

What brings you here?

That's what I should be asking you.

Jung Min is sick.

I knew he'd fall sick.

It's not poisoned, so make sure he eats it.

Jung Min seemed exhausted the last time I saw him.

Thank you.

Come and sit down.

I've actually been meaning to talk to you.

Yesterday, Jung Min told me...

that I must've felt wronged and bitter...

because I was discarded by my father...

and that my self-pity eventually led me to be selfish and greedy.

He told me that's why I'm trying to take over Seorin.

He's not entirely wrong.

But there's something Jung Min doesn't know.

There's something that no one knows.

I'm not trying to be the chairwoman...

because I hate Jung Min.

As you already know, my son isn't very bright.

Jung Min is the only one who has what it takes...

to carry on the family business.

One day, I'm going to give him all of Seorin's shares.

And I'm also going to give him all my shares of CLB.

You seem pretty shocked to hear my big picture.

Do you know why I'm against reforming the company?

A reformation of the company...

will lead to voting limits to all the major shareholders.

Then the company owners will have very little control of the company.

Foreign investors will use that opportunity...

to challenge the owner's management rights.

That's why I'm fully against the reformation.

But you and Jung Min don't think alike.

A reformation could allow the company to grow.

Yes, of course.

But it's only a possibility.

What if I ask you if you'll bet everything on a possibility...

or something stable even though there could be a few problems?

Then shouldn't you choose the latter...

and try to fix the problems along the way?

I guess you guys could come to a compromise...

as long as you find a way to keep a balance in management rights

Then why don't you try and convince Jung Min?

You know he's a bit too radical.

I'll be off now.

By the way, why were you hugging A Jun yesterday?

Are you cheating on Jung Min?

There's absolutely nothing going on between us.

I just gave him a hug to console him about something.

A Jun has no control over himself.

If you give him what he wants, he'll ask for more.

Do you know this saying?

"A friend of everyone is a friend of no one."

If you've decided to be with Jung Min, then focus on him.

Stop trying to be nice to everyone.

Fortunately, your fever's gone down.

I bet you didn't get any sleep because of me.

I think I gave you my cold.

Thanks to me, you no longer have a cold.

Should I apologize?

Just thank me.

Have some food so you can eat your medicine.

I thought about it all night even while I was sleep.

I think...

I should meet A Jun.

Of course.

That is if you're not willing to cut ties with each other.

But I don't know what I can do to make him feel better.

Time solves everything.

Giving him some time might be a way to solve things.

I really don't know what to do.

I hope you don't think I'm cold-hearted...

after hearing what I'm about to say.

I feel like he's determined to do anything to hurt you.

So you should call Chairman Chung.

Because A Jun has the power of attorney?

He won't abuse that.

He may have said some things out of anger.

But he's not the type to play dirty.

We all have a tendency to be hypocritical.

We see and hear different things.

And we sometimes think differently as well.

Director Choi, you have a visitor.

(Director Choi Myung Hwa)

Look who's here. The man who could be my best running mate.

I heard the coffee here tastes great.

I'm sure you're not just here for coffee.

Have a seat. Let's sit down.

(Jung Min)

The receiver cannot be reached. You will be directed to voicemail.

Please leave a message after the beep.

He won't answer my call.

It's not your fault.

And it's not his fault that he got hurt from what happened.

But he is responsible for locking himself up in the past...

and refusing to move on from it.

I'm not trying to point out what he's doing wrong,

but I'm saying we all need...

to overcome our scars ourselves.

Do you know how I was able to overcome my scars?

It was all thanks to you.

I totally got to my senses after I got rejected by you.

I realized that I almost lost my chance to be happy...

because I was so caught up with how hurt I was.

Thank you for always being on my side, Ji Eun.

Why don't you tell me that you love me instead?

I love you.

I love you no matter what.

You lack creativity.

Try harder if you want to receive a lot of love from me.

You lack creativity.

You should try harder...

if you want to receive a lot of love from me.

By the way, your aunt dropped by.

She didn't say anything upsetting.

She bought you herbal tonics because you seemed exhausted.

It's like a punch and a kiss.

Do you remember telling me something?

It's what you told me a long time ago.

You told me that families are obligated to forgive each other.

Why did you want to see me on a weekend?

I should be having fun right now.

I know you're busy having fun these days,

but you should visit your mother once in a while.

Well, I'm here. Can I go now?

Hey, cut it out. But what's wrong with your face?

What about my face?

Your mother runs a cosmetics company.

Do you really think it makes sense for you to look like that right now?

What's wrong with how I look? Don't I look charming enough?

You look exhausted.

You must've stayed up all night having fun.

Let me look at you. My goodness.

I'll give you some cosmetics.

Make sure you apply the products every night, okay?

Do you know how hard it was to develop custom-made products?

We provide different products for each individual.

It's different for each and every day.

Do you think it was easy to develop that?

Thanks to that, you've aged so much.

Well, keep up the good work.

Hey, sit down.

I'm busy.

You're not busy, you darn punk.

I'll show you how it's done.

Here.

My goodness, it came out younger than I actually am.

You got 82 for moisture, 65 for elasticity,

60 for wrinkles,

73 for freckles and pigmentation.

You got 280 points in total.

Danny, you're not supposed to add the numbers.

Whenever I see numbers, I can't help but add everything.

My goodness, Danny.

It's a pity that you're only good at mental calculation.

Cheers.

Here you go.

- Thanks. - Thank you.

No problem.

You guys, we're all acquainted.

Why don't we all sit together?

- What do you think, Yoo Na? - I don't mind.

Will you be okay?

Sure. Why not?

Then let's push the tables together.

I actually gathered everyone here for a reason.

First of all, Ho Jin and Yoo Na have officially become...

a couple now.

Meanwhile Bok Ja and this mister seem to have something going on.

I guess you don't know my name.

My name is Lee An.

And I'm no mister.

Well, you seem old enough to be called that.

Gosh, Young Eun.

So what's your point? Why did you call us here?

Listen to me carefully.

Where was I?

My gosh, you're unbelievable.

You were saying Bok Ja and this mister...

No, I mean Lee An. You were saying...

there's something going on between them.

Yes, that's right. Bok Ja, there's something going on, right?

We're just friends. We went to the same kindergarten.

Why are you suddenly drawing a line?

I really want to know why you called us here.

To be frank, the six of us have a complicated relationship.

And I feel like we should be clearer about whom likes whom.

We're an official couple now, so leave us out of it.

She's right.

Let's be honest. Bok Ja and Ho Jin...

both had feelings for each other.

What's the matter with you?

We're like brothers.

There's nothing going on between us.

Bok Ja, you're in the center of this complicated relationship.

So let me ask you something.

Is it Ho Jin, your first love from 10 years ago?

Or is it Yeo Jin, the guy who's had feelings for you for 10 years?

Or is it that new face over there?

It's time you choose.

Just make up your mind already.

That way, I'll be able to hit on Yeo Jin...

or try to make a move on that mister over there.

Or Ho Jin...

Well, I guess he's not so bad.

We're seriously like brothers.

What?

You need to win your love.

It's the weekend, so my wife and I were outside getting some fresh air.

And we bought some fruits for the people at the sanatorium.

Thank you.

What's taking her so long?

There she is.

- Hello. - It's nice to meet you.

I plan to come with him next time to do volunteer work.

We'd be grateful to have you here.

You have a very nice impression. You seem familiar.

By the way, where's Mr. Kim?

He's sleeping right now.

Where should I put the fruits?

You can come with me.

Okay.

I'll move the boxes. You can wait here.

Okay, let's go.

Your wife is beautiful.

You're so kind to each other. It's like you're newlyweds.

We are newlyweds. We recently got remarried.

Congratulations.

You and Mr. Kim also have a special relationship, don't you?

You don't look married but...

Gosh, I'm sorry if I crossed the line.

He was my first love.

I met him again when he was brought...

to a hospital 10 years ago.

I was his nurse.

You must've been destined to meet each other.

He was in a very bad state.

It was a really bad accident.

I think I heard someone say this.

But is it true that Mr. Kim woke up...

after eight years of having been in a coma?

It's medically hard to explain how it was possible,

but there are patients who wake up from comas every now and then.

Yes, I remember reading about this patient...

who woke up after 27 years.

Mr. Kim had no hope back then.

So his ventilator...

(Central Operating Room)

We can easily forge...

a doctor's note.

He seems hopeless.

We should remove the ventilator.

If my brother-in-law wakes up,

I'll be the one having a funeral.

He won't forgive me this time for the money I took from the company.

Of course, I'm not going to tell my sister.

They may have fought like crazy, but they had three kids together.

She won't forgive me if she finds out.

Who are you?

Did you take my husband from the hospital?

Yes.

I brought him here to save his life.

(Phoenix 2020)

It's you. You're Ji Eun's father.

How are you still alive?

Did you take my husband from the hospital?

Yes. I brought him here.

I loved him a lot.

Has anyone come looking for me?

Don't feel too anxious. I'm sure someone will call.

Jo Hyun Min, that jerk. I need to find him first.

I'm going to have one of my guys become the CEO of Seorin...

and make him be my avatar until I finally take over.

I want you to get moving right now. We have no time.
