Are you happy that your father is with you?

You're so pretty.

My baby, you're so pretty.

My pretty child. You are so happy.

Who's a happy baby?

- She seems so happy. / - She must love you a lot.

Doran.

You seem so happy.

Doran, you're so pretty.

Look over here.

Doran, are you happy?

You're so pretty.

1, 2, 3!

(Episode 1)

(Hopes and dreams are by your side.)

Case number 1991...

1875.

Robbery and murder.

Defendant Kim Yeonghun.

I will announce my judgment.

Defendant Kim Yeonghun's crimes are clear.

Therefore, under the Criminal Law, 250-1...

Clause 333,

Clause 37,

and Clause 38 are applied.

Hence, I pronounce that Defendant Kim Yeonghun...

is sentenced to life imprisonment.

Prisinor 1410, Kim Yeonghun...

you have a visitor.

Brother, look at her...

just look at her.

She's your daughter, Doran.

Look up and look at her. Please.

What is this?

You should have contacted me.

I didn't know your wife was so ill.

Why didn't you contact me? Why?

It drives me crazy

that you're like this

after your wife died.

But even more,

how could you think of

sending this child to the orphanage?

Did you really think of

making her into an orphan like us?

It would be better for her to live as an orphan...

rather than as a daughter of a murderer.

What?

I am not Doran's father.

I do not know who that child is.

So please, just take her away

right now.

I will raise her.

Dongcheol...

Doran...

My Doran...

Do not worry.

I will raise her well.

I will raise her healthy,

and beautifully.

Please don't worry.

Just as you have

cared for me

and raised me like your own brother,

I will be a father to our Doran.

Please,

make sure...

that she never finds out that I am her father.

Never.

Doran,

you will now live with me,

your uncle.

No, your father.

Yes.

Let's head home.

Hey!

Why are you outside? It must be tiring for you.

What are you carrying?

What is this?

Let's go inside first, then talk.

Where do you think you're going?

Who is this baby?

Whose is she, and why do you have her?

Yangja,

we have to raise...

this baby from today and on.

She's our baby now.

What?

Oh, gosh. Are you okay?

Dongcheol, did you have an affair?

That's not it. Can't you trust me?

It's not your baby,

so why do we have to raise her?

Why?

We're the only ones

who are there to raise her.

I can't. I can't do that.

If there's no one else to raise her,

just send her to an orphanage.

What?

If you don't want to, I'll raise her alone.

Dongcheol!

She's the child of someone I'm indebted to death.

If I don't adopt her, I'll be punished.

Do you want that?

No.

Accept it if you love me. Trust me this once.

Are you sure all her parents are dead?

Are you sure there's no one else to raise her?

Yes, I'm the only one.

We're the only ones there for her. I mean it.

How could you do this to me?

How could you do this to our baby?

I'm sorry, but I only have you.

Please accept this. Just this once.

Gosh, whatever.

Thank you.

I'll live harder from now on.

I'll be good to you forever.

I'll love only you.

Doran had her meal.

Yes, she drank up all 170ml of her milk.

She did.

Diapers?

What, you didn't think I changed them for her?

Okay.

Buy some sundae on your way home.

Okay, bye.

What is she.

to ruin the relationship between me and Dong Chul?

How annoying.

Gosh.

Gosh, my stomach.

Goodness.

Oh my goodness.

Gosh, it's cold.

Doran.

Wash my indoor shoes too.

Why you little... Wash them yourself.

Why do you always ask me for it?

Don't you have hands?

Mom told me not to do any house chores.

You know, I'm weak.

I'm getting my indoor shoes checked in school,

so wash them nicely, okay?

Wash them yourself.

How dare you order your older sister around?

Let go of my hair!

- Let go. / - Do it on your own.

Mom!

Miran.

Are you okay? What have you done?

These are my new clothes.

You're...

dead meat.

Goodness, let me go.

- Gosh! / - Let go!

You, let go first.

- Gosh. / - Let go first.

Gosh, guys! What is going on?

Hey. Goodness gracious.

- Mom. / - Yes, honey.

Doran...

- hit me again. / - Gosh.

Oh, no. Miran.

Look at this nosebleed.

Gosh, I can't take you anymore.

How could you hit her until she has a nosebleed?

Why are you hitting me without knowing anything?

It's because you pushed me in this dirty water,

saying you wouldn't wash my indoor shoes.

You should've just told me you didn't want to.

So you pushed her first.

Why can't you do it for your little sister?

I don't want a daughter like you, so get out.

Get out right now.

Why do you always hate me?

Why do you always side her?

She's your daughter, and I'm not?

Look at you, rude brat.

Yes, I'm not your daughter.

I picked you up under a bridge over there.

So go look for your mom there.

Okay?

How sickening.

Okay? Get out.

Mom.

Mom, are you sure

you picked her up under a bridge?

Shut it.

Gosh, go in and wash up already.

My sweetheart might catch a cold.

Go in.

Take off your backpack.

Where did she go?

Whatever. I don't care.

Dad...

Dad.

Sir.

Did my brother refuse to see his visitor today too?

It's from Mr. Kim again.

Thank you.

I don't know about your story,

but your brother has come to see you for 10 years,

so you should see him at least once.

Don't be so determined.

Yeonghun,

I've brought some pictures of Doran again.

She entered a drawing competition...

and won a bronze prize recently.

Now that she's the prize winner,

her dream has changed again.

Her dream changed from a police officer...

to a volleyball player,

and now, she wants to be a painter.

I was upset about...

how you refused to see me every time.

So I wasn't going to visit you ever again.

But how could I not?

I'm the only one you have in this world.

My parents abandoned me,

but my five-year-old brother fed me with milk,

changed my diapers,

and covered

all my mistakes to raise me.

To me, you're more precious

than my real parents and siblings.

I know you want to cut ties

because you're worried about Doran.

Still,

I want to see your face at least once.

Doran.

Dad.

What are you doing here? Why are you here alone?

Are you a fool?

I'm not.

You're not a fool,

but you trusted that ridiculous thing

and starved until now

when you're a heavy eater?

Dad, I'm all grown up now,

so tell me the truth.

Under which bridge did you pick me up?

- Just tell me that. / - Gosh.

You really are a fool.

Are you sure you didn't pick me up under a bridge?

I was there with the doctor

when you were born.

You were so chubby and big.

Your mom went through so much giving birth to you.

Really?

You sure she gave birth to me?

I'm telling you.

Then why does Mom only hate me?

She always sides with Miran

and favors her.

I told you that she doesn't hate you.

I explained it's because Miran was sickly

ever since she was born.

She was born after just seven months.

Is that my fault?

She always blames me.

But Dad's on your side.

I guess. I have you

and you're stronger than Mom.

Eat all you want.

Eat up.

Go on and eat.

We still have mosquitoes?

I hate them.

- Honey. / - What?

Me?

I won't say it again.

What are you talking about?

If you say we found Doran...

under a bridge just once more,

it's over between us.

What? It's over?

Fine.

I want to know, even if we call it quits.

Who is she that you keep

threatening divorce?

You should be bowing and thanking me

for raising a girl I know nothing about.

I'm not kidding.

Fine, let's get divorced.

I've had enough.

Let's get divorced.

What,

is Doran...

really his child from another woman?

He wouldn't treat me like this

if she weren't his.

Yes.

Let's see if she really is his.

If she is, you die, I die, we all die.

(Gene Research Center)

What if she really is Dongcheol's?

No. He said she's the daughter of...

someone he owes a favor to.

She isn't his.

But what if she is his?

No.

Yes, let's just go home.

No. I need to find out.

No, it's better off if I don't know.

- Ms. So Yangja? / - Yes?

Here are the test results.

Thanks.

"Kim Dongcheol and Kim Doran"

"are not father and daughter."

I knew it.

There's no way Dongcheol cheated on me.

Pass the ball.

(True correction for a brighter future)

(True correction for a brighter future)

Yeonghun.

Dongcheol.

Yeonghun,

I never imagined I'd see you

on the outside. Is this a dream?

How did you find out?

How do you think?

Guard Song told me you were pardoned.

I didn't believe him.

Here, eat this.

Eat this.

You haven't changed at all.

Let's go.

Where to?

I found you a place to stay.

- Let's go. / - Dongcheol.

We parted ways 27 years ago.

You saw me now, so let's just part.

I'll change my name and go by someone else.

Consider me a dead man

and forget about me.

How can I forget about you?

It's my fault you ended up like this.

If you hadn't

done time as a youth for what I stole,

you wouldn't have suffered

or ended up doing time.

Dongcheol. It wasn't your fault.

Forget about that.

Yeonghun.

You should see Doran.

Won't you?

Why should I see your daughter?

I know why you're like this.

You're afraid that

you'll ruin her life and future.

But no one knows that you're her father.

Let's go back to being old friends

and eat together and go fishing together.

I should go.

Take care.

Yeonghun.

Yeonghun.

Darn it.

(In session)

For about a year since

September of 2016, he deceived the victims...

and took 15 million dollars

in investment funds.

Dozens of victims suffered.

One family lost everything they had

and tried to commit suicide.

Your Honor.

The defendant

didn't just take money.

He destroyed the hope

and happiness of numerous families.

Your Honor.

I plead that you

give this scumbag

the maximum penalty allowed by law.

The defendant planned the crime

and tried to blame his accomplice

throughout the trial showing no remorse.

His victims also wish he be severely punished.

The defendant Kim Kyungho

should be sentenced to 10 years in prison.

I got to see a trial thanks to you

and it was awesome.

Will you be like her as a prosecutor?

You bet I will.

I'll get into law school

and become a prosecutor.

Then I'll put every fraud who ruins families...

behind bars.

Right. Until the world is free of con artists,

- keep going. / - I'll keep going.

We should go to work. Let's run.

- Run? / - Run!

I'll race you.

Bear with me.

- How long will it take? / - Sorry.

The burgers are ready.

Why? You failed it again?

I don't know.

Gosh, I'm so upset.

Miran.

I guess you're not meant to be an anchor.

So why don't you give it up and try...

Juri passed the test this time.

The girl who attends the same class with you?

Yes. What makes them think she's better than I am?

She's not prettier nor skinnier than me.

If I went abroad to go to college...

I mean, if I studied English abroad for a year,

I would've passed this time.

You should go abroad to study English.

Really?

Do you have money to afford that?

I'll have it out with your dad

and send you abroad this time. Don't worry.

Okay?

Okay.

Gosh, you poor thing.

You always say that I'm poor.

If you really feel that way,

just make sure to send me this time.

Okay.

Just wait.

What's the matter?

If you're not busy, come home early tonight.

Yes. Miran's home early.

So I'll cook galbi jjim. It's your favorite.

What? Galbi jjim?

Gosh, Doran loves that.

Did you call Doran?

What? I was going to call you now.

After talking to you.

It's okay. I'll call Doran myself.

All right. Bye.

Gosh, he always talks about Doran.

If Doran didn't go to college,

we could've let Miran study English abroad.

Because of Doran,

Miran has had to give up so many things.

My gosh.

Who'd understand how I feel?

Dad.

Where are you?

Of course, I'm in the library now.

That's my girl. You're studying so hard.

Mom is cooking galbi jjim which is your favorite.

You should come home early and have some, okay?

Then you can study again.

I see. Okay, Dad.

Bye.

Your dad still doesn't know you work part-time?

No. If he finds it out, he'll get mad at me.

He wants me to study for the bar exam.

You should listen to your dad.

Why would you work part-time?

Hey, do you even know how much law school costs?

I should save some money for the entrance fee.

I know my dad works really hard.

That's why I'm working part-time secretly.

What a nice daughter.

I'm such a good daughter.

Are these all you have?

Don't you have a bigger one?

- We do. Do you want it? / - Yes, please.

My gosh.

Hello, Eunyeong?

I'm so sorry, but I totally forgot about it.

Don't wait for me.

I'm grocery shopping

for my husband's memorial ceremony.

What?

Your husband's memorial ceremony?

That's right. It's around this time of the year.

All right. Okay.

She has her husband's memorial ceremony today?

That's what she said.

She says she's sorry that she forgot this

and will treat us next time.

Hasn't it been more than 20 years since he died?

Not 20, it's been 27 years.

Gosh, you're right. How time flies.

Hongsil lost her husband when she was 27.

And she's raised

her young children all by herself the whole time.

I feel proud and bad at the same time.

Hongsil's children still think...

their dad died from a car accident?

Yes.

I see. It's better that they don't know the truth.

The guy who killed Hongsil's dad...

must still be in jail.

Of course. He was sentenced to life.

A guy like him should rot in prison his whole life.

I know. He actually deserves to die.

A woman became a widow because of him.

And two children had to grow up without a dad.

Oh, I'm sorry. I should answer the phone.

Hello? Ms. Yoon.

What? The chairman is on his way?

Okay.

I'm sorry, but I should get going.

Why? Is anything wrong?

Today is Mother's birthday.

We're having dinner all together,

and my husband is on his way home already.

The housekeepers will take care of the whole thing.

That's true, but I should be there

before my husband comes home.

Otherwise, he'd complain that I didn't cook

for Mother's birthday dinner.

I'll see you guys later.

- Okay. Bye. / - See you.

I think

she's the luckiest woman in the world.

But she has her Achilles heel.

Her mother-in-law and her husband who's a good son.

You're right.

Talk to the planning and strategy divisions

- to take care of it. / - Yes, sir.

Hello.

Hey.

- Are you going home? / - Yes.

I'll be home after taking care of one thing.

- Just don't be late. / - Okay.

Hello? It's me.

Jang Soyoung just returned from England?

A friend's birthday party?

Please find out where the party takes place.

Thank you.

Director Wang?

We got an email from Hong Kong.

They say they will consider the investment.

Mr. Oh wants to talk to you on the phone.

- Really? / - Yes.

I assure you...

we will put our money directly into...

the research and development department...

once we merge with the DK Group.

Are you sure they will agree to the merger?

Of course.

Yes. I'll send you the detail via email.

- Okay. Bye. / - Thank you. Bye.

Email me the data for DK immediately.

Okay.

Jang Soyoung is in Korea,

and Mr. Oh shows his interest.

- Is everything done? / - Yes, it's almost done.

- What about geotjeori? / - It's finished.

Don't add too much chili pepper powder.

Don't make it too red.

Yes, ma'am.

Ms. Cho, what's wrong?

Did you break a coffee cup again?

Well... It's not that I break it every day.

That's not it.

Well...

Madam Park went out with her car key.

What? When?

A while ago.

You gave her the car keys?

Don't you know that she shouldn't drive?

She kept pushing me to give her the car key.

What was I supposed to do?

My goodness.

Chairman Wang is here.

Gosh, what should I do?

What do I do?

I'm home.

- You're home. / - Yes. Where's Mom?

Well... That's...

I guess she went out in her car.

You guess?

You weren't home?

I told you not to let her drive.

No, that's not it.

While I went out to buy the mango cake

that Mother loves,

she pushed Ms. Cho to give her the car key.

Ask her where she is now.

If she's gone far, I'll go pick her up.

Okay.

Hello?

Mother, are you driving now?

Where are you?

Jinguk is worried about you.

I'm out for fresh air.

Why would he worry about me?

Today is your birthday,

so we are having dinner together. Did you forget?

My birthday?

Are you talking about me?

Gosh, you even had seaweed soup this morning.

Did you really forget that today is

your birthday?

No, I just came out to get some fresh air.

I will be home right away.

I had seaweed soup for breakfast?

Why am I like this these days?

(The next episode will continue soon.)
