Ms. Seo.

I think you can stop now.

But how did you manage to slice the radish so evenly?

What should I do now?

It's okay. I'll do the rest.

I'm already grateful that you helped me this much.

- My goodness. - I'll carry it.

No, it's heavy. Let's carry it together.

Oh, my gosh.

Are you okay? Can you walk?

I don't think I can get up.

I'm sorry. This is all because of me.

Ms. Seo.

I think you can stop now.

But how did you manage to slice the radish so evenly?

What should I do now?

It's okay. I'll do the rest.

I'm already grateful that you helped me this much.

Just a second.

Are you okay? Can you walk?

I don't think I can get up.

I'm sorry. This is all because of me.

I should call an ambulance.

Jung Min!

Jung Min!

My goodness.

Ms. Seo, are you okay?

What happened?

She got hurt because of me.

Can you please carry her?

No, it's okay.

That's a really bad burn.

Hold onto me. Here.

Okay.

- Ji Eun, can you get me some ice? - Sure.

Oh, dear.

It must hurt a lot. I'm sorry.

It's okay. It wasn't your fault.

Gosh, I suddenly slipped.

Why did you ask her to cook?

She didn't ask me.

I offered to help.

Let's call an ambulance.

No, it's okay. I'll just take a cab.

Jung Min...

I need to go to the hospital to see my son anyway.

So don't worry.

Can you get me my bag?

My cell phone is inside.

I left it on the dining table.

Okay.

Can you take her to the hospital, honey?

It's okay. I'll take a cab.

That's nonsense.

You got hurt at our place, so I should drive you there.

Wait here. I'll go get my coat.

Why would you make him get his coat himself?

You don't deserve to be his wife.

Is there something wrong?

My bag...

Oh, right.

Do you think you can get up?

Can you?

Is it okay if I hold onto Director Seo's arm?

Yes, of course.

You're expecting guests, but the floor's a mess.

I'm sorry I can't clean up the mess.

It's okay. Don't worry.

That's going to leave a scar.

I'm a woman with a kid, so it's fine.

Don't talk nonsense.

Go and get treated at the hospital.

Don't worry.

I won't take long.

Come on.

Are you her guardian?

Oh, well... Yes.

It's a second-degree burn, but it's nothing serious.

Fortunately, it didn't reach the dermis layer of the skin.

So she just needs to apply ointment...

and come by regularly for treatment.

But it could still hurt, cause edema, or get infected.

So she should receive antibiotics and an IV injection.

You should go now, sir.

Okay. Take good care of yourself.

You'll need to come to the hospital from home, so take a few days off.

No, it's okay. You have an important meeting on Monday.

And you have meetings all week, so I should be there.

Just do as I say. I'll be off now.

Mom!

Mom, did you get hurt?

- I'm okay. Don't cry. - Okay.

Does it hurt a lot?

I'm fine. Don't cry. Don't cry.

Did you say hello to Mr. Seo?

He's here?

Hello, Mr. Seo.

Have you been well, little Jung Min?

Why are you smiling?

My name is Seo Jung Min, and your name is Seo Jung Min too.

It's funny.

I know. I find it funny too.

Why didn't you visit me?

Did you miss me?

Yes, a lot.

Sir, you should go now.

Ms. Seo, it's time for me to go home now.

Who's going to take care of Jung Min now?

Just lie down and finish getting your injection.

I'll take care of Jung Min.

Will that be okay?

Jung Min, would you like to spend time with me?

I'm so excited.

Let's go play board games.

Mom, I'm going to go and have fun with Mr. Seo.

Let's go play board games.

Ta-da.

You're the best.

I wish you were my dad.

What?

I didn't really mean it.

You must feel awkward about what you just said.

It's not wrong to be honest and speak your mind.

I may not be able to be your dad,

but I can be your friend.

Friends are supposed to meet often.

Okay, I'll try to visit more often.

Just a second.

Hey, Ji Eun.

Apparently, the burn isn't that deep.

But I don't think I can go home right away.

Little Jung Min is all alone.

Okay.

Then you should spend time with him.

But isn't Ms. Seo's boyfriend there?

"Boyfriend"?

Ms. Seo's seeing someone?

Yes, she told me that her boyfriend...

was spending time with Jung Min earlier.

I'm not sure. I don't see anyone here.

Anyway, I'll go home as soon as she finishes her injection.

I'm sorry for making you cook everything on your own.

Hey, Jung Min.

Did your mom's friend come by?

I hate him.

Let's play this board game.

What?

Oh, okay. Let's play.

I figured it might be uncomfortable for him to use chopsticks,

so I cooked him scorched rice soup.

Is scorched rice okay with you?

Let's eat. My wife is awfully considerate.

Here.

I didn't know you were here, honey.

Honey, what brings you here?

I told you I went to the orchard today.

The sanatorium was located on the way there.

So I dropped by to see Mr. Kim.

I bought you some freshwater eels.

How about we eat them together and play a game of Go?

My wife is here, so we can all spend time together.

Mr. Kim is in a bad condition today.

I see.

Did you bring this, honey?

We had a lot of leftovers even after I gave some to Jung Min.

Good choice.

You should've called and told me you were going to come here.

Hyun Sook.

You're a very good liar.

I tried so hard to understand you.

But I just can't seem to do it.

My heart can't seem to accept it.

We're closed.

It's me, Mr. Kang.

What brings you here alone?

I just came.

Did it bother you...

to see me walk out like that...

at the wedding?

- Would you like a glass? - Sure.

Hold on.

Are you drinking on an empty stomach?

It's okay.

Wait just a bit. I'll make you rolled omelettes.

It's okay. Don't bother.

I want to make one for you.

Mr. Kang.

You used to call me "Stepfather", but I'm back to being Mr. Kang.

I'm sorry.

But this is nobody's fault.

What are you here to say?

I know how kind you were to me,

so I feel really bad about saying this to you.

Please end it with my mom.

Hey.

How could you say that to him?

I know you're her daughter,

but it's not for you to decide.

Who are you to get involved in our family matters?

Are you his son or what?

I may not be his son,

but what you're doing is very rude.

Don't you think it's rude of you to get involved?

I thought my dad was dead, but he came back in 10 years.

Our family has the right to live together.

Then what about Mr. Kang?

That's enough, you guys.

I get what you mean, Young Eun. You should leave.

I'll go see your mom soon.

I'm sorry, Mr. Kang.

My goodness.

I bet you feel really upset.

I'd ask for nothing more if I had a son like you.

You do have a son. I'm sure you'll find him soon.

I don't think so.

I kept convincing myself that he has to be alive...

so I could continue to cope with it.

But I see no hope now.

I tried everything I could, but he still hasn't shown up.

That means he's no longer in this world.

Mr. Kang.

No misfortune lasts forever.

If you muster up your courage and let go of the past,

a new kind of hope will come find you.

You're a very brave man.

Yeo Jin, you grew up to be a great person.

You should bring your parents one day.

I'd like to treat them to a meal.

Thank you.

But where's my rolled omelette?

My gosh, I bet it's all burned now.

Oh, gosh.

I really like you.

I like you too, Mr. Kang.

You kind of feel like family.

How did Seo Eun Ju end up getting a burn?

She must've caused trouble again seeing that she came to the ER.

Gosh, how do I need to control this crazy freak?

Right now, I have her weakness,

and that's the only reason she can't do anything rash.

But she's more than capable of turning her back on me.

I want you to do a more thorough check on her.

Okay.

I knew you wouldn't be glad to see me.

But you don't need to glare.

I told you not to come to my son's hospital.

You made me come here.

I know you found the files regarding my irregularities...

at Jung Min's place.

Why aren't you giving them to me?

Why would I give you those files for nothing in return?

I want you to give me the video footage of me first.

You know better than me that money is what moves...

Yang In Cheol.

I don't see why I owe you anything in return.

I didn't know Jung Min was here.

Jung Min already knows my ill-intentions,

but you're different.

If I decide to open my mouth,

Jung Min will find out who you really are.

I have the files regarding your irregularities,

so you won't end up going to jail.

Now hurry up and leave.

Even a worm will turn.

Director Seo, you should go. You were here for too long.

Okay. I put your son to the bed.

Do you feel better? You don't look so well.

No, I'm fine.

Okay, let's go.

Gosh, what excuse am I going to give this time?

I should still tease him though.

Bring the car.

Long time no see, my son.

Why didn't you invite your mother to your wedding?

I warned you...

to know when to stop.

What are you here to do this time?

You easily get suspicious without giving the benefit of the doubt.

You're just like your father.

The people around me aren't the type of people...

who will easily get swayed.

Jung Min.

The people and things you care about are what hurt you the most.

I really didn't want to make things worse between us.

I hope you know that you chose to stand...

on the edge of a cliff.

My goodness, how scary.

You must be determined to have me investigated by the prosecution.

Do you remember me telling you...

to do what you want and that I'll do what I want?

Let's wait and see which one of us will be the one...

standing on a cliff.

What brings you here?

I've come to a decision, so you'd better brace yourself.

Thank you for preparing everything for all the guests.

You're a great cook, Ji Eun. I envy you, Jung Min.

You should meet someone nice and get married too.

It'll help you get to your senses.

I don't want anyone to suffer by marrying him.

You can just live alone.

I'm relieved that Jung Min has you by his side.

It feels great to know that he has a wife...

who's beautiful and cooks well.

I'm also glad that you're back to whom you used to be.

If you hadn't almost died,

I might not have changed my mind.

I know.

Thank you for offering to negotiate.

We managed to come together thanks to Ji Eun.

You were too radical, and you agreed to meet me in the middle.

And I agreed to accept some parts of your reformation plan.

Now all that's left is for us to work together.

You're well acquainted with Kim Myung Seok, aren't you?

No, I don't know him.

He's your first love. Stop acting like you don't know him.

You were excited that he might get appointed as Seorin's CEO.

When did I ever get excited? My gosh.

He worked at JY Corporation in the States...

and Golden Financial Corporation in Hong Kong.

He worked there for 10 years.

Taeyang was suffering due to a deficit,

but he helped them make profits in only three years.

He's cool-headed, so he never gets biased.

And he has a great character.

Seorin wants a neutral CEO,

and I personally think he's the best man for the job.

Let's talk about it on Monday with the executives.

And we also need to discuss it with the board members.

I bet you're tired. You should get some rest now.

You need to be in a good condition to get pregnant.

Don't think that I'm pressuring you to quickly get pregnant.

But it'd be nice to have babies.

And imagine how great it'd be to see your kids...

running around in this big house.

Not only do I want you guys to stay home tomorrow,

but I also want you to stay in your room.

Let's go. Get some rest.

My goodness.

Gosh, you must be tired.

I'll do the dishes today.

I can put them in the dishwasher.

That's what I meant. I meant I'll put them in.

(Chief Prosecutor Kim Jong Hyuk)

It's Chief Prosecutor Kim Jong Hyuk.

Seeing that he's calling you...

as soon as he's back from his business trip,

he seems very determined to investigate the case.

Hello, this is Seo Jung Min.

Like I texted you, there's something I'd like to give you.

Ji Eun.

The files regarding Director Choi's irregularities have disappeared.

What do you mean?

Can you please do me a favor?

If you go to my place and open the dressing room cabinet,

you'll find a leather case with a watch inside.

Can you take that to the studio where A Jun is?

I'll send you the passcode to my place via text.

You even know the passcode to my house now.

I think she got bought off by Director Choi.

- Whom? - Seo Eun Ju.

Director Choi was at the hospital.

She saw me and hid behind the curtain.

So you think Seo Eun Ju took the hidden files...

regarding Director Choi's irregularities?

I don't want to be suspicious,

but that's what the circumstances are telling me.

I once asked her...

to pick up my watch and take it to A Jun.

And because of that, she knows the passcode to our place.

Without those files,

it'll be impossible to put Director Choi in jail.

Director Choi needs to get punished for constantly crossing the line.

We have no proof, but my hunch keeps saying it was her.

The fact that she messed with the brakes to cause an accident...

is the same thing as attempted murder.

That's why I need to find the files.

I need to go to the hospital.

Where are you?

Come to the hospital right now.

There's something you need to do for me.

Don't you want money?

Hit me.

You're crazy. I can't believe you're making me do this.

Hurry up and hit me.

You'd better brace yourself.

I can't!

I can't betray Director Seo.

Get to your senses. Don't be such a fool.

If we do what Director Choi asks, our lives will change completely.

So just do what you're told.

No, I can never betray my boss.

My son and I think of him as a savior.

I'd be no better than a beast if I even think about betraying him.

I want you out of my life!

Great acting.

Hit me one more time.

If you ever show up before Ms. Seo again,

I swear I won't let it slide.

Why didn't you tell us?

Have you been getting abused?

Don't worry.

We'll protect you.

Ji Eun, you've fallen for my trap.

(Phoenix 2020)

I was suspicious of you, Ms. Seo. I'm sorry.

She asked me to find the files regarding her irregularities...

and bring them to her.

Just do as I say...

until I take over Seorin Group.

I won't give up on my woman.

Legally speaking, she's still my wife.

Do you love her?

I need to meet you.

You and Jung Min won't easily be able to get out of this.
