(Episode 17)

Saebyeol?

Saebyeol.

Wake up.

Saebyeol, it's your dad.

You really wanted to meet your dad, didn't you?

Stand up and say hello to your dad, Saebyeol.

Mom, I'm sleepy. I want to sleep.

Just a second. It won't take long.

Saebyeol.

Saebyeol, you really wanted to meet your dad.

Saebyeol, come on.

Saebyeol.

Saebyeol!

Do it right now!

Dad's here, so you can't sleep.

Say hi to your dad before you go to sleep.

Hurry up.

Stop crying. Stop. Stop!

Hurry up and say hello.

Stop it already!

No.

Saebyeol sings so well.

Saebyeol? Please?

Stop crying

and sing for your dad.

Stand up.

We practiced a lot. Hurry.

'Three bears...'

Hurry up and sing!

Hurry! Sing!

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

I was mean.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.

(Audit Report)

When did you get back?

Let's talk.

I told you it's useless.

How could you bring...

What are you trying to do, bringing her here?

When did you become like this?

I should ask you that.

You're the one who made me this way.

Why would you make me this way?

Taejun...

Don't do this.

I'm sorry.

It's all my fault.

Not telling you about Saebyeol...

That was totally wrong of me.

I wasn't disregarding you.

I just didn't want to burden you.

You were studying in a foreign country

where you didn't know anyone,

so I didn't want to add to your trouble.

Because I trusted you.

I trusted you...

Right, that was why.

That was why I tried to fight it.

I fought so hard

not to get distracted.

But after fighting it for so long,

I couldn't understand what I was fighting for.

Hey, Nayeon.

Being out in the world, I almost lost it.

It was such a shock.

I could see what a nasty dump

I'd been living in.

The time you shared with me

was nasty?

Every moment

was a precious memory to me,

but those precious memories

were nasty to you?

When you're living in there,

you can never see the truth.

Once you escape from there, it's only then

that you can face the truth. Do you get it?

That woman...

That woman you say you'll marry,

is she that great?

Is she that great?

You didn't read the article on my wedding?

Article?

If it was someone from an average family,

there wouldn't be an article.

It's someone you know.

Jang Sejin.

Baekdo Group's chairman's granddaughter,

Jang Sejin.

This is such a great chance for me,

greater than you could ever imagine.

I think I'd better go.

You should cool down

and clear your head, and we'll talk then.

What took you so long?

I thought you'd spend the night there.

He told us to stay overnight,

but I said no.

It's an apartment his company got him,

so how could we stay?

What did Taejun say?

Wasn't he surprised to see Saebyeol?

I heard he didn't know about her.

Well...

He could feel the connection.

Of course. Now you should have your wedding

and get your marriage legally registered.

Once Taejun settles down.

He's not coming to visit us?

I can hardly remember what he looks like.

Of course he'll come.

He'll come as soon as he's less busy.

Mom, let me go wash up.

Yes, you should. You must be tired.

Saebyeol, I'm sure you were so happy.

What?

You think sleeping in my room and breathing this air

makes you part of my family?

No way. I'm different from you.

I won't share anything with you.

You're not getting anything from me.

You can't take anything that's mine. Got it?

Why did it have to be Sejin?

Why...

Oh? Mr. Kang Taejun, is that you?

You finished your studies and came back?

Mr. Kang Taejun, it's nice to meet you.

I've heard a lot about you.

But you've been gone for a long time,

so I'm above you, right?

I'm back.

It's been so long.

Mr. Bae!

Taejun knows where our office is,

so why did you go to meet him?

Are you aiming to become

Employee of the Month?

- That's too much! / - I know!

If you're done laughing, say hello.

This is our general director.

What?

When is he coming?

I heard we're getting a new director,

so I've been feeling really nervous.

I know.

I hope we get someone open-minded.

Right?

The man standing next to me

is our new general director!

I'm sorry for raising my voice.

Say hello to him!

It's not "Taejun."

He's General Director Kang.

I'll do my best to be

a good and open-minded

general director.

I look forward to working with you.

Hwigyeong. Hwigyeong!

Where are you taking that?

Returned product storage.

Put them in the freezer for now.

We can use them.

Use them for what?

Aren't these supposed to be discarded?

It's the college graduates

who are the slowest of all.

Instead of learning on the job,

you're not picking up anything!

How will you justify getting paid?

If we wait for the right occasion

and donate these to charity organizations,

we can cut expenses and earn credit.

But I think that's wrong.

These should be discarded.

What?

They were recalled due to defects,

so giving them to the needy to earn credit

is not something a company should do.

A company's existence depends on being trustworthy.

Nothing is more stupid

than losing the priceless trust of consumers

just to cut costs.

What? Stupid?

You think you know better than I do?

Fine. I don't know anything.

But at least I know about

the obligations of companies and human beings.

When those irresponsible behaviors add up,

our company's reputation

and our product reliability will be ruined.

I'm taking these to returned product storage,

not the freezer.

Who does he think he is?

Sit down.

Is it time yet?

We still have 20 minutes.

He'll be here soon.

He's very hardworking.

Welcome, Mr. Baek.

I should've visited sooner. I'm sorry.

No need for formalities. Have a seat.

Can you give us some privacy?

This won't take long.

Take your time.

Are you just going to stand there?

I'll sit down.

So, did you talk to your daughter?

She's a reporter?

Yes, for a magazine.

I tried nagging and coercing to make her quit,

but nothing worked.

Her mom has spoiled her rotten,

so she's very clear about what she wants

and very stubborn.

That's great.

My son is also stubborn,

so when he doesn't like something, he shuts down.

They're perfect for each other.

Mr. Baek, let me read your palm.

My palm?

Let me see your hand.

Mr. Park?

When you get old, you get sneaky.

I wanted to hold your hand,

but I felt embarrassed.

I'm sorry that I lied.

But I'm going to be sincere.

My son Hwigyeong...

Please be open-minded about him.

He's divorced,

and there are rumors.

But I trust my son.

Aside from his having no greed,

I believe I raised him right.

I know that.

Please let go of old grudges

and just think about Hwigyeong

and my company Baekdo Group.

I don't have much time left,

and I wanted to tell you this before it's too late.

You were waiting here?

Thank you for coming despite your busy schedule.

Goodbye.

It must be very hard.

Taking care of a sick person

is exhausting.

You don't look so well.

No, it's not that hard.

You must be busy, so you should go.

It must be around here somewhere.

How would I know?

Maybe your panties grew legs and walked up here,

or grew wings and flew up here. Who knows?

If you don't know, who does?

Why are my new panties

hanging on your clothesline?

I don't know!

Maybe a cat dragged them up here.

Are you serious?

You think you can treat me like a thief

just because I'm your tenant?

My son is marrying into a rich and powerful family.

After the wedding,

even if you beg me, I won't live here.

So why are you acting like this?

Look here, woman.

How can you tell such a lie?

A rich and powerful family?

I don't know who they are,

but if you're becoming in-laws with them,

they must be nasty people.

What? Are you done talking yet?

Whatever! If you ever touch my clothesline again,

you'll end up in prison.

Prison?

You'll go to prison for false accusation!

How dare you say such a thing?

This one's mine, too!

What the heck?

Does it say it's yours?

Let go! It's mine!

Look! It's my size!

It's too small for you!

Let go!

Let go!

Let go!

Oh, man!

Where's Sejin?

She just came home. She's in the kitchen.

In the kitchen?

Sejin.

What are you doing right now?

Mom, would you like some, too?

The housekeeper made it, and it's delicious.

You make me so proud.

What a great daughter I have!

Mom.

I know how you feel,

but let's not drag this out any longer.

Whenever you act this way, I feel miserable.

You feel miserable? I feel even more miserable!

I'm going crazy inside!

Do you know where I just came back from?

I went to see

Taejun's mother, and...

Unbelievable.

She's the worst.

No one could be worse than her!

You went to see Taejun's mother?

How could you do that without telling me?

Don't worry! I couldn't even say hello.

I wouldn't stoop to her level!

You're driving me to the edge. Do you realize that?

There's nowhere for me to go!

If you keep doing this,

I'll have no choice.

If you have no choice, what will you do?

I told you.

I'll go back to America with Taejun.

What?

Fine, go!

Go wherever you want!

I'm not making empty threats.

Do whatever you want!

Even if I can't see you again,

I won't let you marry him!

Why did you do that?

What were you thinking?

I have no idea what you're talking about.

And this is my office.

Family issues should be discussed at home.

I have to go to a meeting.

I don't care, because this is serious!

You have 10 minutes.

Calm down and explain what happened.

Why did you do that?

Our daughter was going abroad to study,

so why did you send such a loser along with her?

And why did you just

sit there and watch Sejin

fall for him like that? Why?

You planned everything, didn't you?

Didn't you?

You did the same thing. And we did the same thing.

What are you talking about?

I saw you in Sejin's face.

How you were when we first met...

I saw that in our daughter Sejin.

Sejin can't live without Taejun.

Taejun helped her heal,

and thanks to him, she pulled through.

Now she's getting a new start thanks to him.

You think that makes sense?

You and I got married under the same circumstances!

Why did you have to do that?

The person who helped Sejin pull herself together

and get a new start...

Why did it have to be that jerk?

Just like it had to be me for you,

it has to be Taejun for Sejin.

It's just natural for her!

Please...

Stop torturing our daughter, please?

Please.

What are you doing?

I told you.

I'm going back to Boston.

I'll go and find a place

and have Taejun join me later on.

Mom!

Call him!

Call that jerk over.

What are you saying?

Mom, you're giving your permission?

Stop overreacting.

It's just one dinner.

Mom, thanks! Taejun...

I mean, that jerk will be so good to you.

Don't overdo it. I'm not expecting anything.

Oh, look at the mannequin's pot belly!

It's so realistic.

Right!

I guess they make realistic mannequins now.

It's so real.

Please go away.

I can't breathe.

Hey, the mannequin's turning red.

You're right.

There are veins popping out on the forehead!

Is it a real person?

What? What is that?

What's wrong?

Did the chicken insult you or what?

You're eating like there's no tomorrow.

Stop eating, and go wait tables.

I'm not in the mood, so stop talking to me.

Your mood won't help you pay the bills.

Bring pickled onions

and kimchi brine to Table 3.

This is why I hate coming here.

Oh, you're the one who spends most of the money

I earn here.

What?

What's Segwang doing here?

I'd like to order, please.

Just a second.

What are you doing? Go take his order.

You wait tables. I'll cook.

Don't even...

You think cooking chicken is easy?

Stop driving me crazy, and go.

What would you like?

I heard that the chicken here is delicious.

What do you recommend?

Everything's good.

Onion chicken and curry chicken are the most famous.

I'll get half and half, then.

Sure.

(Baekdo Group's Jang Sejin to wed soon)

Yes, sir.

Yes, I'm in the area.

Yes?

Yes, sir. I'll be right there.

I'm sorry. I'll have to come back another time.

What?

I heard he lives in Gangnam,

so how did he find this place?

What? He left?

He said he was busy.

Okay.

I'm in front of your apartment.

I'm still at work.

When do you finish work? I'll wait for you.

I can't guarantee a time. I'll call you later.

I'll wait until you get here.

Hello?

You ordered food for your daughter's welcome party?

Yes, I'm sorry it took me so long.

The food I ordered last time,

I can order it for tomorrow evening, right?

Tomorrow evening?

I'm very sorry,

but things are a bit hectic

with my family right now.

But you still have to work.

Work is work.

So please do it for me.

I'm having a special guest for dinner.

I have a housekeeper,

and she's great with everything else,

but she's not a very good cook.

I want to order Korean food

for my daughter and our guest.

I'll pay you well.

Okay then.

I'll get things ready for tomorrow evening.

Text me the address, please.

Sure.

Are you okay?

I'm sorry. I was in a rush.

I'm sorry.

You should watch where you're going.

Don't be a hazard for others.

You must be expecting a baby,

so I'm sorry.

I'm really sorry!

What are you talking about?

You like keeping house so much

that you got pregnant? Is that it?

Anyway, congratulations.

I'm busy, so bye.

I mean Jang Sejin. I think she's pregnant.

I caught her

in a baby product shop.

What's this?

Jang Sejin and Kang Taejun are already...

What are you implying?

What do you think?

I'm deducting, like Sherlock Holmes does.

Stop jumping to conclusions, and be quiet.

Too much speculation can ruin you.

Bye!

Pregnant?

No, that can't be true.

It just can't.

Have you been waiting a long time?

It doesn't matter.

What is it?

I understand.

When you're far from home,

and you meet someone you know,

it's easy to fall for that person.

I'm sure you met Sejin that way,

and I can see how you'd feel attracted to her.

Sejin is pretty,

and she's rich and charming.

Any man would be attracted to her.

But don't go any further.

I'll only be understanding up till that point.

I thought about it all night long.

But there's only one answer.

Our daughter Saebyeol

grew up without a dad

because I'm such a bad mom.

Now she's finally met her dad,

but you don't want to see her again.

You don't want to be her dad.

Please reconsider.

I know it's hard,

but don't give up on being Saebyeol's dad.

Please tell me.

Tell me that you'll reconsider.

No.

I've come too far.

Nothing is going to change.

No...

We...

We're in the same place we've always been.

Taejun, just go back to the beginning.

You need to go back to where you were.

Don't try so hard. It'll only hurt you more.

I'll meet with her.

If you can't do it,

I'll meet with Sejin and sort things out.

I'll do everything.

It's because I want to marry a rich woman

to move up in the world.

I'm going to turn you back.

Back to who you were before you went to America!

He's not with that woman again, is he?

He dumped you in a place like this

and placed his future son-in-law

in a key position?

The son with all those rumors about him?

I'll go and meet him.

I'll pick you up at your house in an hour.

Go faster!

If you weren't here, this wouldn't have happened!

Why did you make me into a piece of trash?
