(Episode 22) When I first

got your call,

I had a glimmer of hope.

I thought that you of all people

would understand my situation

and make the right decision.

Because you were like that 20 years ago.

20 years ago?

It's natural for you not to recognize me.

The girl

who was sent to an orphanage

for stealing your wife's jewelry 20 years ago

is all grown up.

It's natural that you wouldn't recognize me.

Are you...

Nayeon?

It's not too late.

I'll forgive you, so open your hand.

No, I didn't steal anything.

So open your hand.

If you open your hand, this will all be over.

This is the last thing my mom held when she died.

I can't show you until I check for myself.

I can't show it to anyone.

You're really

Yunae's daughter, Nayeon?

Yes.

I am Lee Yunae's daughter.

I'm Nayeon. I am.

Fate has linked us

in the most twisted way.

So you were Taejun's girlfriend...

What are you doing?

Get up.

Please help me.

Sejin has everything.

She'll be fine without Taejun.

But...

But I won't be fine at all.

Taejun is family to me.

For 20 years,

Taejun was my whole life.

We were never separated from each other.

Even apart, we were always together.

Here, in my heart...

We were always together.

We laughed together,

we cried together...

We were always together.

Get up now.

Please help me.

If you help me,

Taejun will realize his mistake.

Please stop this wedding.

Please do it.

That won't happen.

I can't let Taejun go.

You want a strong family for your little girl,

but I want the same thing for my own daughter.

Let me beg you.

I'll compensate you adequately, so end it here.

Compensate me?

Don't waste your energy on a hopeless fight.

No matter how hard you try, you will lose.

Be wise about this.

I'll call you back.

Maybe I should've met Sejin first.

Sejin wanted to see me, too.

She must be waiting for me right now.

If you bother Sejin and give her a hard time,

I won't stand for it.

You'll get no special treatment from me.

What's wrong with this woman?

She can't even show up on time,

but she expects to get her man back?

Something came up, so I have to postpone this.

I'll call you back soon.

What?

Is she trying to stall?

Hi, dad.

Where are you?

I had an appointment, so I'm outside.

Come to my office right now.

Your office? Why?

I'll tell you when you arrive.

Come right now.

What's going on?

My dad asked to see me right now.

I'm an expert driver.

I don't want you to worry, Taejun.

Segwang!

Do you like it?

I heard they released a new line of products,

so I was going to go and check them out.

But this must've been very expensive.

Are you sure I can accept this?

No matter how expensive it was,

compared to my feelings for you, it's nothing.

Segwang...

Don't get too emotional just yet.

Ta-da!

Segwang!

Should I help you put it on?

Thank you.

But there's nothing I can give you.

I'm sorry.

It's okay.

All you have to do is be gorgeous.

Thank you.

What? She's still not back?

Oh Manjeong!

Yes, keeping hiding from me,

so I can have fun looking for you.

Let's do this hide-and-seek properly,

Oh Manjeong!

Manjeong! You wretched Oh Manjeong!

Oh Manjeong!

Just wait until I catch her...

Man...

It's me.

I know, buddy. I'll pay you back.

If I move forward just one more inch,

I'll be rolling in dough.

With just a little more time,

I'll get a ton of money.

Hey, are you crazy?

That's my workplace!

If you cause a scene there,

you'll never get your money back from me!

I said I'd pay you back soon!

Seriously, I can't believe how he's fussing

over a measly $2,000.

What's this? The junk cards?

What bad luck...

I can tell from that cheeky-looking bottom.

Manjeong, did you think I wouldn't find you

if you were hiding in here?

You'd better get up.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I thought you were someone I know.

That heartless woman.

Kicking me out in the freezing cold wasn't enough?

She has to come looking for me?

How am I supposed to control the love life

of my adult son?

The best thing to do is to sit and watch.

His mom's been evicted and has no place to live,

but he won't even call.

Right, desperation leads to action,

so I'll take action.

'Dance and dance so happily'

'And then stop'

'Dance and dance so happily'

'And then stop'

'Don't blink, don't smile'

'Don't cry, don't move'

'Dance and dance so happily'

'And then stop'

'Dance and dance so happily'

'And then stop'

Dad, you mean it?

Can we really do that?

Why didn't you tell me?

That your mother lives alone in a rooftop place?

Have your mother move into your apartment,

and you can move into our house.

Your wedding is next month,

so think of it as moving in a month early.

Do you think mom will agree with that?

Leave that to me.

I'll deal with your mom.

Thank you, dad.

How did you come up with that idea?

Don't overdo it.

You'll be a mom soon, so stop acting like a baby.

Taejun, call your mother.

She'll be so happy.

I appreciate your concern,

but I'd rather not do that.

Why not, Taejun?

I've already received too much help.

I'll look for a place for my mother.

As for moving in with you,

I think that

I should do it after the wedding.

Why is that?

It's just that...

I think it's too much to ask of Ms. Park.

I'm very grateful for her accepting me,

so I don't want to concern her with another issue.

There's no need to complicate things.

Just do as I say.

I'm sorry.

This time I must say no.

My goodness!

This company is enormous!

So my Taejun will be the son-in-law

of the owner of this huge company?

What a wonderful life this is!

- Why did he do that? / - What do you mean?

My dad. I don't understand why

he wanted you to move in before the wedding.

And he didn't even discuss it with mom.

I think he's rushing it too much.

He told you.

It's because of my mother's situation.

Still, it was so unlike my dad.

I have to go.

I have a meeting.

Okay.

Oh, I was supposed to meet that woman,

but I got stood up.

What? What are you...

What woman?

Who do you think?

Why would you meet her?

Did she contact you, asking to meet up?

She wanted to see you?

What? Yes.

Don't meet with her.

She's out to get me.

If you meet her, you'll get hurt.

I'll deal with her.

It's that bad?

She's that stubborn?

I'm begging you.

Please let me deal with her.

I don't want you to get involved.

If you do, things will get more complicated.

Okay, you deal with it.

I'll stay out.

Drive home carefully.

I came to see my son!

So why can't I go in?

You're just impossible.

No matter who your son is, you can't just barge in.

Lady, if you want to go inside,

give me your son's department.

Lady?

How dare you call me "lady"?

Look, if you want to work as a security guard,

you should learn to recognize people.

What?

Please get out. Go.

Oh, how dare you touch me?

Why did you grab my bottom?

You want to go to jail for sexual assault?

What?

You're some kind of old money-grubber!

An old money-grubber?

Are you done talking?

What about me looks old?

What's going on?

This woman showed up

and insisted on going inside.

She said her son works here,

but she doesn't know his position or department.

I couldn't let her in with just a name.

I have a feeling

she's a solicitor.

A solicitor?

You're going to get fired today.

You're finished!

Ma'am.

If you came to see your son, instead of doing this,

you can try calling him.

Of course I know that,

but he won't answer his phone.

Why are you butting in? Who are you?

Do you work here?

You're causing a scene

and making people uncomfortable.

You should try to reach your son

and come back another time.

What?

I didn't want to boast,

so I wasn't going to say this, but I have no choice.

I am going to become

an in-law of the owners of this company.

My son is going to be

the grandson-in-law of this company's chairman!

Don't you know Kang Taejun? Kang Taejun!

Did you say Kang Taejun?

Oh! I can't believe they deliver

such fancy steak to your home!

I've only seen it done on TV!

You should see where Taejun lives,

so I thought eating here would be best.

Mother, would you like some wine?

Wine?

That does count as alcohol.

Having it with your steak will refresh your palate.

Then let me have some.

A meat dish with no alcohol

is like a party without cake.

I had no idea that

you were this youthful and beautiful.

Oh, my!

You know just what to say!

Oh? I wasn't trying to flatter you.

And I'm sorry.

I should've come and introduced myself to you,

but I didn't get the chance.

I'm glad I ran into you like this.

I know.

I was so curious about what you're like

that I almost lost my head.

But you're so pretty.

You're friendly, sweet, and elegant.

Taejun really hit the jackpot.

You're too kind.

Oh, did Taejun tell you?

That our wedding will be next month?

Uh, of course I heard.

You should meet my parents,

so tell me when it's convenient for you.

Meet your parents...

So you are really getting married.

Of course.

Eat up.

Cold steak is tough, and it tastes awful.

I'm sorry.

What's wrong with her?

Are you, by any chance...

Pregnant?

I'm sorry. We're not even married yet.

Oh, my! This is a double jackpot!

Oh, would you like some water?

Or should I pat your back?

No.

I think you're wearing a lot of perfume.

What? Oh...

That's one of the reasons why I'm so popular.

He doesn't have much time left,

so he wants to spend it with his family.

Is it fun to go out by yourself

when your husband is sick in bed?

You expect me to lie next to you, feeling bored?

Why would you feel bored doing that?

Come and lie down.

Let me hold my wife in my arms.

Here?

That's no fun.

Shall we go home?

What's gotten into you?

To think of something that admirable?

I thought about it,

and it's been too long since you've left home.

And I'm getting sick of this hospital.

It's been too long.

That's what I'm saying.

Life away from home is full of suffering,

and look at how terrible this is.

When I have a perfectly fine home of my own.

Fill out the discharge forms.

Go home

and make me a pot of chili paste stew.

Okay.

Let's have chili paste stew with Hwigyeong,

just the three of us.

Hold on a second.

I forgot to buy fruit.

Hwigyeong.

Your father is coming home tomorrow.

He is?

That's such great news.

He didn't even bat an eye

after sending me to a dump like this,

so I'm sure he's got at least 20 years left in him.

I think he really wants to go home.

We're finally going to be

a complete family now.

I'll come to the hospital when I get off work.

Bye.

Were you waiting for my call?

What is it?

Here.

Here.

Make it look good.

Open your mouth really wide.

It's hot.

Do we have to do this?

You promised to cooperate with me.

This is the most delicious barbecue in the world.

Nice. Smile.

Very nice.

Why are we doing this?

I told you.

I need evidence that I went on a date.

But why do I have to be

a barbecue restaurant model for that?

I can't eat

sitting across from anyone I hate.

Especially my favorite food, barbecued meat.

It's weird, but I can't eat in those circumstances.

So now you understand

why I need this photo?

Okay, let's eat now.

It looks delicious.

That can't be all.

Aren't you supposed to be straightforward?

Be straightforward with me.

If I can cooperate, I will.

Okay then.

We're on the same wavelength.

I have no intention of getting married,

but my father's been pushing me.

"Will you quit your job, or go on blind dates?"

So of course I went with blind dates.

You're my seventh match.

Why don't you want to get married?

What about you, Hwigyeong?

Do you really hate marriage

enough to put on a show like this?

Or is it like the rumors say?

You can't be satisfied with one woman?

Is that why your first marriage failed?

What kind of woman do you like?

Let's go home.

I was like that, too.

It happened to me, too.

Twice.

I was going to get married,

but things went down the toilet, and I couldn't.

Why are you looking at me with pity in your eyes?

Acting like a victim doesn't suit you.

When it comes to this topic, I feel like a victim.

Sit down. I can't finish this by myself.

I don't know what you really want,

but I'm not really attracted to you.

So let's focus on our deal.

I think those rumors were false.

About you being a womanizer.

Nice men who pretend to be womanizers

say things like that.

Don't worry. I'm not sure about other stuff,

but I'm sure that I won't fall for a man.

So from now on,

we'll meet three times a week

and create our alibis.

That way, our parents will leave us alone.

Here.

Here.

Don't let your imagination run wild.

Go! Go! Team!

- Team. / - Eat.

That ungrateful jerk.

After everything Nayeon did for him...

No decent human being could act like that.

We're saving so much rice, we're going to be rich.

If you don't want rice,

have some porridge.

You've turned into a wrinkly old woman.

The bags under your eyes go down to your chin.

Take that away.

Eat, get your strength up, and sell fried chicken.

I got fired from my part-time job,

so I need to work at your restaurant.

Just one bite.

I said get that away from me!

Oh, whatever!

Starve yourself, if that's what you want!

Man!

Where's Nayeon? She's not home yet?

I don't know.

She took Saebyeol out to get some fresh air.

What took you so long?

Did you go to the South Pole for fresh air?

Is mom home?

Just go to your room.

She's in a terrible mood.

Nayeon, we need to talk.

What?

I don't think that

Taejun is ever coming back.

He's not the Taejun we used to know.

I know you're upset, but what can you do?

He's not in love with you anymore.

Just let him go, Nayeon.

I'm going to my room.

Nayeon, you were doing great with Saebyeol

while Taejun was away.

You can keep doing that!

I'll help.

I'll take care of it,

so don't worry.

Why cling to a man who betrayed you

and waste your tears on him?

Just spit on him

and let him go. Be cool.

Be cool?

How can you say that so easily?

Nayeon,

do you think it's easy for me to say this?

Haven't you looked in the mirror lately?

Do you know what you look like these days?

You look like a girl

from a third-rate tearjerker movie!

I don't want to see that!

Right.

I don't want to see that, either.

I really hate to see that.

I want to let go, too.

I want to be cool and let go of him.

But I can't do that.

I can't do that, so what should I do?

Nayeon, why are you crying?

You heartless girl.

Come with me.

Want me to sew your mouth shut

so you can never talk like that again?

Your sister's heart is already torn apart,

so how could you say such things? Come with me.

Because I'm upset, too!

- I am! / - Come!

(Taejun)

Hi, it's me.

I'm coming to your house right now,

so meet me outside.

Right now?

Don't go overboard.

Your baby doesn't have fingers or toes yet,

so why did you get mittens and shoes?

Why not? I can already feel

my baby's heartbeat.

Would you like to feel it?

Don't make such a big deal out of it.

Drink this. It's herbal medicine.

What's this for?

It prevents miscarriage

and helps protect the baby.

It helps if you take it during your first trimester.

Drink it.

What is it? Are you okay?

Your morning sickness is bad right from the start.

Are you okay?

Was I like this, too?

Did I give you a hard time

when you were pregnant with me?

You don't know the half of it.

When I had you, it was so hard

that I swore to myself

I would never have another baby.

But maybe those words were a curse.

I couldn't get pregnant again, even when I tried.

I must take after you, not dad.

What?

If I took after dad, I would've been a good kid.

I would've been

a really nice baby before I was born.

Taejun.

Hi.

Bring Saebyeol out here.

Kang Taejun...

She's going to take Saebyeol in?

She's going to raise her?

I'll do my best to compensate you.

How dare you say that?

Why does your fakery seem real?

Because I have a clear reason why I'm faking it.

I'm going to the hospital

for X-rays and a CT scan, so give me your number.

Give me your cell phone,

and I'll put my number in!

Unless you want to lose Saeybeol, too,

you should disappear from our sight.

I have a sudden urge

to make every effort to stop this wedding.

You think I can't do that?
