[Episode 54]

Why are you acting like you're sick?

I'm sorry.

Your face is looking pale.

You should try and get some sleep.

Get some rest.

Yes, Father.

Let's go.

I don't like anything about you.

I'm really not feeling well.

Is that an excuse these days?

When I was raising my kids, I wouldn't avoid my responsibilities...

unless I was being dragged off in an ambulance!

How can you avoid your in-law's funeral?

I feel like passing out.

I'm sorry, Mother.

There's no use talking to you.

What are you doing in my room?

Don't worry.

We're the only ones here today.

Let's go out.

Should we go for a drive?

Mr. Moon?

Mr. Moon.

Mr. Moon.

Why aren't you getting your phone?

The chairman would like you to join us.

My phone's out of batteries.

I forgot to charge it.

Madam, if you wait for me outside,

I'll get changed and meet you upstairs.

Why do I smell women's perfume?

It smells like the brand that Woo-joo's mother uses.

What are you doing here?

You said you were too sick to attend the funeral,

so what are you doing in Hyun-soo's room?

I needed to talk to him about work.

Then why were you hiding behind the door like a mouse?

You were hiding because you felt the need to hide!

What are you accusing me of?

I often feel the need to hide from you!

You're always giving me a hard time,

so I'm simply trying to avoid you!

What are you talking about this time?

Everything that comes out of your mouth is a lie!

Mr. Moon, talk to me.

Is this woman telling the truth?

Yes.

She wanted to talk to me about the marketing spokesperson.

Are you sure?

Of course.

I'll trust you, only because it's coming from Mr. Moon.

You trust Moon Hyun-soo, but you can't trust me?

I'm Woo-joo's mother and your daughter-in-law!

I usually stick my neck out for my family,

but something's fishy about you.

There's nothing about you I find trustworthy.

I even wonder if Woo-joo's actually a member of this family.

Mr. Moon, the chairman's waiting.

Let's go.

Yes, Madam.

Get some rest.

You're overworking yourself.

Don't worry about me. I'm just fine.

You remind me of your father.

I do?

Yea.

If Hyun-ah takes after me, you take after your father.

Your father had high expectations of you.

I know.

I had foolishly forgotten about him for a long time.

But these days,

I'm starting to recall my memories with him.

I know it's hard, but try to hang in there.

I'll put things back the way they were.

I'm old now,

but Hyun-ah would've been helpful if she was with us.

Oh, my... What do we do?

Boss, Ra-bong might be in danger!

Oh my, hey!

Get me some cold water!

Bong, Bong!

Hey!

Bong, are you awake now?

Silly girl...

She takes after me so she's a coward...

How do you expect to weather this harsh world?

You need to be stronger.

Don't worry about her.

I'm going to protect Bong.

What?

It sounds to me like Do-joon and Bong like each other...!

Are you okay, Bong?

You're humiliating me!

Maybe the mother and daughter will get married at the same time.

What?

I thought you're dating, too?

Big Sis, it was only a movie...

and some potato stew afterwards.

What more do you expect from him?

What?

Why, you little...!

Must you put me on the spot like that?

Where did you get that insensitive gene of yours?

But why haven't I seen Song-ah?

Oh, she went to work earlier.

What?

She's been in front of your house for four hours?

I'm so sorry.

Yes, I'm on my way now.

I'm Kang Se-na, the daughter-in-law...

to the chairman of the JH Group.

Let's hear what you have to say.

Do you normally start off meetings with an envelope?

It's my business style.

I get right to the point and ask for cooperation later.

Does this behavior bring you success?

It never fails me.

Even you eventually opened your door for me.

You will eventually sign a contract to be our spokesperson.

I read about you.

How as a normal employee, you got married...

to the chairman's son.

Your sudden rise has undoubtedly given you...

a healthy dose of pride as well.

But it's the exact moment your life begins to spiral downward.

I'm honored to see that you're worried about my life.

You're a mother-like figure to housewives everywhere.

We need your image.

Please join our marketing campaign.

It'll be an easier decision for you,

once you see the amount that's inside.

Get out of my house right now.

What more are you asking for?

You drive a hard bargain, don't you?

Do I look like someone you can buy with money?

It's hard to believe that you made it as far as you have.

Did you purposely ruin my meeting with Mrs. Hyun?

What?

You're trying to ruin my meeting so that you can be the one to sign her!

Follow me outside, Se-na.

This is my client's home!

Miss goody two shoes...

Your hypocrisy is making me nauseous!

What are you doing in my home?

I apologize, Mrs. Hyun.

Jin Song-ah,

take this person out of my house!

Yes.

Follow me, hurry up!

Let go.

I said let go of me!

Jin Song-ah, why are you always getting in the way?

Are you sore because you can't beat me?

Quite the opposite.

You're doing everything to try and beat me,

but you're angry because it's not working out for you!

What did you say?

Why, you...!

Let go of me, Kang Se-na!

I said let go!

You're a tough cookie, aren't you?

I told you!

I'm not standing for your atrocities anymore!

If I knew who you really were,

I never would've been your friend!

I wish I never met you.

You have a sad life, filled with regrets.

Instead of blaming me,

why don't you blame that pathetic life of yours?

Aren't you hiding something from me?

Of course not.

I've got nothing to hide from you.

Get it now?

The world is on my side.

Mrs. Hyun.

Is she the one who did this to you?

Yes.

I'm sorry that I can't help you.

Not at all.

I'm sorry that I got you involved in all of this.

I'll make sure that Kang Se-na never comes here again.

Wow, it's nice that we have ice-machines now.

Why have you been lost in thought?

What?

No, it's nothing.

Wait.

Who knows what this liar could be scheming next?

Hwa-kyung, what are you talking about?

She's gotten away with lying about her family,

so I won't stand for any more!

Jung-ok, watch the house for me.

I'll be right back.

Yea, okay.

Ice in my mouth is the perfect way to cool off.

I was afraid we'd get caught yesterday.

We should be more careful.

You're more cowardly than you look.

I don't want to put you in danger.

It doesn't feel like home.

But I'm glad that I have you around.

You're the only person I can depend on.

Woo-joo's mother?

I'll be going now.

Who was that man?

He was a colleague.

Really?

Go and make sure if you don't believe me.

I didn't know that my colleague and I are under suspicion.

Can you imagine what made me so suspicious?

With Kang-min's wedding and you lying about your family,

I'm starting to suspect a thing or two.

What are you doing with my phone?

I can't believe a liar like you.

I'm going to have to verify everything with this.

Give it back!

Give that back to me now!

I've heard of the Cinderella life before,

but this is ridiculous!

See, you're making me more suspicious now.

Aren't you taking this too far?

What is it?

Yes, um...

Hyun Mi-sook is going on air with Jin Song-ah.

What did you say?

The show is tomorrow morning?

It's a popular show among housewives,

so it'll be good exposure for our product.

I'd imagine so.

I didn't think Mrs. Hyun would agree to the show,

but I think she wanted to help us.

It's more like she wanted to help you.

Thanks to your relationship with Mrs. Hyun,

all of us are benefitting from it.

Jin Song-ah mustn't go on the show alone.

Let me go on the show as well.

We can't leave something important like this...

in the hands of a new-recruit!

I'll take responsibility for this!

Bro, can you give us a moment?

Yea, alright.

Jin Song-ah, I look forward to your program tomorrow.

Yes.

Why didn't you mention anything?

You should've told them that I'm to join her tomorrow!

You should feel fortunate that you're not being held responsible for Oh Bit-na.

The only way you'll help the company is if you do nothing.

Stop getting involved in everything!

This is unbelievable...

What did I do that was so wrong?

Why did you tryto bribe Mrs. Hyun with an envelope full of money?

You should know that not everyone in the world is crooked like you!

What the...!

What's everyone doing right now?

Can't you see?

We're trying to get prettier.

So it's true that you're dating, isn't it?

No!

I'm just pampering myself.

Oh, my...

You don't have to be young to treat yourself sometimes.

These days, there are things I want, things like you~

Wow.

And you, with the things you want, things like me~

I don't only listen to the old stuff.

When I was young, I used to compete in pageants.

You're still beautiful now.

But I'm nothing like you, Song-ah.

Good luck on the show tomorrow.

Since you used a face pack today,

you'll look great tomorrow.

Yea, yea...

Thanks.

But I'm so nervous.

Why are you nervous?

Let's go, fighting!

Yea.

- Fighting! - Fighting!

Fighting, fighting.

Are we ready?

Action!

It's nice to see friendship that crosses generation gaps.

I lost the will to live after losing my husband and son...

in an auto accident.

Jin Song-ah was working as a planner for me at the time,

and she helped to mend my broken heart.

We both lost loved ones, and we had that in common.

Once we started talking, we started to comfort one another.

She's much younger than I am,

but Jin Song-ah is a very deep person.

Wow, she's looking great!

I don't know whose daughter she is, but look at that elegance!

I envy her mother!

You have Ra-bong, too.

That's not a good comparison...

Boss, don't be like that.

In my opinion, Ra-bong's much prettier than my sister.

What?

I've met a variety of people while working as a planner,

but some clients end up becoming like family.

Mrs. Hyun is someone like that.

When making water kimchi,

the quality of the water is the most important.

Mrs. Hyun regards water as the most important ingredient...

when making water kimchi.

Ah...

Jin Song-ah was able to provide you with your most important ingredient?

You could say that.

And here, we end up with delicious water kimchi.

I'd like to thank Jin Song-ah and Hyun Mi-sook for being here.

Thank you very much.

Yea, Jin Song-ah did a great job for us!

At this rate, we'll recover from the negative press

concerning Oh Bit-na's fiasco.

Hey, stop pouting.

You're only going to give yourself wrinkles.

Great work today.

Thank you very much.

You did a great job today.

You've suffered for a long time,

so I'm sure good things will come your way.

I know that you agreed to this for my sake.

I'm very thankful, Mrs. Hyun.

I can't do the marketing campaign,

but I wanted to help in any other way.

I'm grateful for what you've done for me.

I'm thankful that we met.

Mrs. Hyun...

The people really look up to Jin Song-ah.

Wow, look at this!

Her name was trending for a while!

Our company's image is improving as a result.

People are calling about our brand new water purifiers.

Jin Song-ah's definitely handling the marketing.

Give it up for Jin of Arc.

Please stop, Mr. Hong. You're embarrassing me.

No.

You deserve a standing ovation.

When did you decide to kiss up to Jin Song-ah?

I certainly kiss up to Chief Kang,

but my applause to Jin Song-ah is sincere.

Is that a mosquito...?

Do you think that you're a star now that you've been on TV?

I never said that.

Forget it.

I don't know how you convinced Mrs. Hyun,

but know that I'll be keeping an eye on you.

What did you say?

There's something wrong with the fact that you're still here.

People are suggesting that Jin Song-ah...

becomes the company spokesperson.

People view her favorably after the broadcast.

She can represent the friendly and fresh employee concept,

if we make her our spokesperson.

I agree with Brother.

The public identifies with her.

She's been given the nickname, Freshwater Angel.

I strongly suggest that we make her into our new spokesperson.

It doesn't sound like a bad idea,

but why don't we give it a little more thought?

You want me to be the company spokesperson?

It's not for sure yet,

but I'd say it's about 90% certain.

I'll make sure that you become the company's spokesperson.

Sir, I don't know if I can pull it off.

Shouldn't you give yourself a little more credit?

Instead of being humble,

you need confidence in yourself right now.

What brings you here at this time?

Why do you look so surprised?

I'm not.

Are you feeling ill?

I feel like I'm coming down with something,

so I'm back early to get some rest.

Honey, I'm going to go grocery shopping.

I feel like some buckwheat noodles.

Yea, okay. I'll go and get some.

Father, I have something to say to you.

Father...

I'm the daughter-in-law of the JH Group.

I've worked hard knowing that I'm the face of this company.

You are aware that I'm the role model...

to all of the female employees in our company?

Jin Song-ah becoming our spokesperson...

is the first step to her revenge.

Aren't you taking it a bit too far?

She's not like the Jin Song-ah from before.

She wants to cause trouble in our family...

and she's trying to challenge you.

How can that be?

I'm home now,

but I'll be heading back to work with a document.

Yea.

Father, don't you trust me?

Have you forgotten?

Jin Song-ah is the daughter of President Jin, the man you killed.

Father!

[Preview]

I'm a woman who lives for ambition, not love.

I can't risk everything I've worked for.

I'm finished with it.

You'll come back to me.

Because you're already caught in my trap.

Will you allow Jin Song-ah to be with brother-in-law?

What?

She's throwing herself at him.

Oh, my mom...

You can speak freely. We're not at work.

Song-ah.

Yes, Kang-mo.

I'm being framed!

Jin Song-ah's behind it!

Shut your mouth!

Jin Song-ah isn't like you!

You won't get away with this!

I'll crush you even harder!
