(Episode 41)

Yes, can you keep smiling like that

and stay hidden for a while?

Why do you keep showing up

when I don't want you to?

I'm begging you.

I don't care why you're here.

But stay away

from the outside world for at least a week

while Taejun and I get married.

Please, Lee Nayeon.

(Detective Choi)

Detective Choi,

did you find something?

Ms. Baek, you should at least say hi first.

I'll thank you later, so did you find anything?

Whatever. Let's cut to the chase.

I can't track Ms. Lee Nayeon's cell phone,

so that means it's either turned off or broken.

Under the circumstances, I doubt she went anywhere.

There's a pretty big chance she's missing.

Missing?

I put out a lookout for her all over the country.

I'm sure she'll try hard to reach someone,

so let's sit tight and wait, Ms. Baek.

Saebyeol is fine now, right?

She's not going to pass out or...

Fall back into a coma, will she?

Her waking up is encouraging,

but according to her MRI,

her condition has actually gotten worse.

We'll have to keep an eye on her.

What? But...

How can you say something like that?

When she...

When she woke up and looked perfectly fine?

Doctors like us

have to keep trying our best

while expecting the worst.

Let's keep an eye on her for now.

I don't care about that stuff, Doctor.

I'll just keep thinking good thoughts

and keep thinking of a happy future.

Saebyeol.

Thank you, Saebyeol.

Granny is really grateful.

Hello?

Ms. Baek?

Ms. Lee,

may I ask you a rather strange favor?

Go ahead. If it'll help us find Nayeon,

no favor is too strange.

Can I see Ms. Lee Nayeon's room?

Nayeon's room?

Sure. Go ahead.

Hello.

Huh? Saebyeol!

Baby... Saebyeol.

Saebyeol, good job.

Saebyeol, you did great.

I won't ever leave you alone in the house again.

Auntie is so sorry.

It was all my fault, Saebyeol.

This is all thanks to you.

You're amazing.

This is such a happy day,

but the one who'd be happiest isn't here.

Where on earth did she go?

Mom, she'll hear you.

Aren't you smart enough to understand what I say?

How dare you come here again?

I called him, mom.

Saebyeol woke up, so he has to see her.

It's only fair.

Saebyeol.

Dad.

Yes.

Yes, Saebyeol.

Dad, isn't America far away?

What?

My teacher said it's really far away,

so thank you for coming again.

Yes, daddy came back

because I wanted to see you.

Where is mom?

I want to see mom.

I really want to see mom.

Either be a little prettier than me

or not quite as pretty as me.

Why does she look just like me?

That's exactly what I look like.

Why, all of a sudden?

This hairstyle would look nice, too,

but your current style is better.

Do I need a reason to change my hairstyle?

You don't,

but you look like you have a reason.

I just feel like I should.

I have a feeling we'll meet sooner if I do.

Oh, what's this?

Is this yours?

Yes, why do you ask?

Why do you only have one?

What?

The earring that was found

at the scene of my mom's accident...

Why did I find the other one in your room?

Don't ask me anything,

but find the other one and bring it to me.

I'm great at keeping secrets,

so you don't need to worry.

But where is it?

Where is the other earring?

It must be somewhere in Nayeon's room.

You have to find it.

You mean Nayeon's room in Yang Malsuk's house?

I don't know if you'll like these.

It's a tiny house,

so it can't be hard to find an earring.

I'm just so grateful

that you trust me so much.

Wait. Taejun's mother is here?

Like I told you before,

Saebyeol is awake,

so if Nayeon doesn't come back,

that woman and her daughters will get suspicious.

They'll come and question me and bother me,

so what should I do?

Just make something up.

Our children's wedding is right around the corner.

What? Saebyeol is awake?

Hi, Sejin.

Did you just go to the hospital?

What?

Saebyeol is awake?

So you've seen her, right?

Is this because I didn't tell you ahead of time?

I feel so frustrated

and annoyed.

You know better than anyone how awful I felt

about Saebyeol's accident, so how could you?

Why do you put so much distance between us?

I wasn't thinking. I'm sorry.

I know it's hard to apologize,

but getting your apologies is tiring, too.

Just think of it as an oversight,

since I've had too much on my mind.

Taejun,

let's not make any mistakes planning our wedding.

Not a single mistake.

Why couldn't I reach you all day?

I thought something had happened,

since you're so clumsy.

Don't people these days

text way more than they call?

If you had something to tell me,

you could've sent me a text.

Text messages can't express my emotions.

And I wanted to hear your voice.

It's spring, so my skin feels very dry.

Don't give me goosebumps.

How strange.

Your cynical manner feels

cold rather than chic.

You're correct.

I'm feeling crappy right now.

I'm hanging up.

Hello?

Dohui. Dohui!

What the... How disappointing...

Trying to propose at my age

is really hard.

Even in first class,

being on a plane too long

won't be good for our baby.

I think Guam is perfect.

Can I go ahead with reservations?

Don't mind me, and do what you want.

I picked out the rings by myself,

I bought our formal wear,

and I'm choosing our honeymoon destination.

I'm afraid.

I feel like I'm the only one in love.

How can you say that?

Is it because of Saebyeol?

She's awake. Saebyeol is awake.

I just have a lot on my mind.

Because of Nayeon?

You have a lot on your mind because of her?

Lee Nayeon is really something.

She's not here, but her presence is still strong,

torturing us both.

Sejin...

Just a second.

Hello?

Mr. Kang Taejun?

I'm Baek, that reporter from Jungle News.

Isn't it about time we met in person?

Isn't it about time

you stopped calling me?

You know, don't you?

Where is Ms. Lee Nayeon?

Ah, I have a strong feeling that you know.

Please, that's enough.

You crossed the line a long time ago.

I'm writing

a fascinating article about you,

and I'm warning you to brace yourself.

Suit yourself.

I'm not the kind of man who's easily shocked

by reading ridiculous fiction.

What's wrong? Who was that?

It was nothing, so don't worry about it.

You're making White Viper

feel very venomous.

Hello, who is this?

Who?

Ms. Baek Dohui from Jungle News?

Yes. If it's okay with you,

I'd like to come and see you.

Is that really necessary?

You're refusing, as I expected.

Then can we talk on the phone?

There are some things I'd like to ask.

Go ahead.

You have three minutes.

Let me cut to the chase then.

Ms. Lee Nayeon is missing. Did you know that?

Why do you think I would know that?

I heard you were trying to stop my article.

I thought it might be because

you knew the article's contents.

The article was about your daughter

Jang Sejin, Kang Taejun, and Lee Nayeon.

Continue.

Assuming that's the case,

I had a rather strong feeling

that you might be involved

in Lee Nayeon going missing.

I'm hanging up.

I've no reason to keep listening

to rude and unreasonable speculations.

Hello?

Hello?

Yes, Mr. Jang?

Tell Director Park Hwigyeong to come to my office.

I called you for a reason,

so I won't beat around the bush.

Okay. Go ahead.

Sejin and Taejun

had a rather messy beginning.

Taejun had a girlfriend for a long time,

and even though Sejin knew,

she still chose Taejun.

But that girlfriend had a child.

A child even Taejun didn't know about.

So Taejun and Sejin

turned them into victims without meaning to.

Can you really say "without meaning to"?

You think I'm being too loyal to my family?

I'm a bit flustered, because you seem to have

lost your sense of reason.

Right.

I can see why you'd think that.

But now that I've lost it,

let me ask you for an unreasonable favor.

You know Ms. Baek Dohui of Jungle News?

I know you two have been dating.

And I know she's growing on you,

even though you never thought she would.

What is it that you want to say?

It's Baek Dohui who's writing that article

about Taejun.

You stop her.

If that article is printed,

Sejin will have a very hard time,

and her life will be ruined.

Kang Taejun

really fooled us all.

Do you really want Sejin to marry him?

You think that's the right choice?

It's what Sejin wants.

Sejin desperately wants to marry him.

For your niece's sake,

please help us.

You're the only one who can stop Baek Dohui.

- Gyeongwan... / - Can you set aside

your sense of reason and help out your family?

There's no other way.

And that's why I'm asking you.

Help us, Hwigyeong.

It's me.

Do you have time tonight?

How about dinner?

You got your hair done?

I know I've gotten prettier,

but I can't buy you dinner.

Why are you being petty? It's unlike you.

This is my mom's restaurant,

but she's not here today.

So you have to open your wallet.

I picked the perfect day.

Perfect.

And since you have something to say,

you should get the bill.

So what is it?

I heard you're writing an article.

You must have heard that from your brother-in-law.

Please don't publish it.

It's about my niece.

You know that

I'll say no to you.

That's why I'm asking you.

That's why I'm forcing myself to ask you,

even thought I don't want to.

I'm begging you.

No.

It's enough that I already

quit working on one article because of you.

You can't stop me.

But it might end up hurting us.

Please don't write it.

Did you say "us"?

Now I'm finally waking up.

I've finally woken up.

I was so busy playing lovers,

I had forgotten what my job was.

To me,

work is more important than marriage.

I'm going to do my job.

Kang Taejun and Jang Sejin

ruined a woman's life,

and I'll keep writing my article as planned,

without any hesitation.

Okay.

If that's what you want, go ahead.

Do whatever you want.

However,

there's something I want to do, too.

I won't let you go.

Work being more important is your own problem.

For me,

you come before anything else,

so don't try to stop me.

Because this is my own problem.

Are you finished?

I should go.

Don't stop me, and stay for another five minutes.

This is actually better.

It is...

This is great.

I feel so refreshed. Thank you.

You must have had a lucky dream last night.

As an opening event,

I have a prize for my 100th customer,

and you are the 100th.

Please come often,

and please tell your friends about this shop.

But you don't have to.

Thank you anyway.

Do come back.

Goodbye.

Yes...

Welcome...

Oh, Ms. Park!

I was going to come and visit you.

I don't know where she hid it in that tiny house,

but I just couldn't find the earring.

I went there twice in secret

and searched everywhere, but it wasn't there.

You have to find it.

You have to, no matter what!

Understand?

I asked if you understood!

Okay, fine.

They say the third time's the charm,

so maybe I'll be able to spot it.

Please sit down.

Have you seen Saebyeol at the hospital?

Oh, I can't go there unless I want to become bald...

I mean, if I want to keep my hair,

I shouldn't go there for a while.

But you're Saebyeol's grandmother!

You can't feel so discouraged!

The moment Saebyeol gets out of the hospital,

take her and raise her.

If you do, this shop will become much bigger.

Of course! I should do that!

Why would I leave my granddaughter with them?

Don't worry.

That family isn't related to my granddaughter,

so I won't let her stay with them.

But you have to keep the promise

you made with me.

What promise?

The promise to bring Nayeon back

after our children's wedding.

You must keep that promise no matter what.

Or else I'm going to lose it.

You shouldn't lose it.

Don't worry about that.

I got a tip saying a woman believed to be

Lee Nayeon is at a hospital in Gyeonggi-do.

Lee Nayeon?

I'll text you the address of the hospital.

Mom, I'm leaving.

Wait, Dohui.

I need to talk to you.

Why?

What is it, mom?

I had a really bad nightmare.

It gives me chills just thinking about it.

Do you have to go out today?

Mom, don't be silly.

They say dreams are opposite of reality.

Don't worry about anything.

And today,

I have a very important appointment.

Wait, Dohui.

Even if you don't want to, wear this.

Please do as I say, okay?

Come here.

Come in.

Aren't you wondering why I'm here?

If you wanted to make me curious, you've succeeded.

I'm dying to know. What is it?

I'm on my way to find

the woman Kang Taejun dumped.

So that's how it's going to be?

You have to do it?

I told you.

It's something I need to do.

Dohui...

Now that I've seen you, I'm good.

You know how sometimes you feel like

you have to do something?

I had a feeling that

I had to see your face today.

Right.

There are times you feel you must do something.

Right. That's it.

I don't think I can let you go right now.

I think I must

make you stay here.

That's what I must do right now.

Don't go.

I'm not asking. I'm ordering you.

Just once, just this once,

please be my woman, and listen to me.

I'm sorry. I told you already.

To me, work comes before love.

I'm leaving.

Wait.

Just a minute.

Whatever you do,

whatever choice you make,

I won't lose you.

I will never lose you.

I'm not...

I'm not

coming back to you.

I said I'm not letting you go.

I said I'm going to hold onto you.

Fine.

Let's do this.

If you really love me,

then you should

upload this article yourself.

You choose, Hwigyeong.

Is it me? Or is it Jang Sejin?

If you really don't want to lose Baek Dohui,

this article

must be uploaded by you.

But you

will choose Sejin.

You won't able to watch

your niece's life getting ruined.

That's why I have to let you go.

That article

is in your hands now.

It's a 5cm malignant tumor.

It's an extremely rare tumor

called a cardiac sarcoma.

This tumor occurred in your heart valve,

and it's inoperable.

Anticancer drugs hardly ever work.

It's too hard to understand. Can you just

explain it to me simply?

How much time do I have left?

Hello?

Hello, Ms. Baek Dohui.

The results of the DNA test you requested are out.

It's our policy for you to come in person,

so when is convenient for you?

I'll come now.

I'll be there right now.

That looks so pretty.

What kind of jewelry is that?

It's an earring.

I keep thinking about this earring.

Just this one earring.

(Family Relation DNA Test Results)

(99.9% Probability of Family Relation)

She declined all visitors.

Is there any other way?

I really have to see her.

She said she went to find Nayeon, so what happened?

You're a nervous wreck.

Dohui isn't a child.

This is the article on Sejin and Taejun

that Baek Dohui was working on.

She's the only one

who can help Hwigyeong get back on his feet.

If Nayeon is hurt in the slightest,

you won't get away with it.

Who are you?
