Honey!

Why are you doing this?

- Aren't you going to think about Jun-yeong? - I'm doing this for Jun-yeong.

I'll explain it to her.

Honey!

If this is proof of the black money between...

Hwangryong Industries and Geumpyo Constructions,

those trying to conceal and those trying to expose the corruption...

would have both tried to get their hands on this ledger.

However, the perpetrator...

wouldn't have thrown that evidence into the well.

If Ju-pyeong was behind this,

why didn't he hand this to the police?

Why did he have to throw these into the well?

Detective Cha was working on a corruption case...

involving a company named Hwangryong Industries.

I believe they changed their name to Hwangryong Group.

The man seemed afraid.

Who was he...

afraid of?

- Cha Yu-min is Head Master Cha's son? - That's right.

He's the one that caused the scene at Se-hui's wedding.

You remember Se-hui's scandal reports.

That was about Cha Yu-min.

What will we look like if Se-hui brings him into the company?

If that is true, I'll have to have a word with her...

and ask why she introduced me to him.

What's there to even ask?

- Isn't it obvious? - What do you mean?

She's doing it out of half-backed sympathy...

since Cha Yu-min was fired as a result.

Still, it's true that he is quite talented.

So what if he's talented?

Have you thought about the repercussions this will bring?

First, Cha Man-pyeong used his brother to accuse us in the press.

Then, his son ruined Se-hui's wedding.

If he enters Hwangryong, who knows what that could lead to?

The person you are calling is unavailable. Please leave a message after the tone.

You know why. Sure, I was at Hwangryong Group.

Who was I with?

I was with Hwang Se-hui. Are you satisfied?

What's Yu-min doing?

He's not home.

What? He left already?

I saw him leave last night with his bags.

I ran into him on my way in.

He left at that hour?

Did he say he's going on a trip again?

I asked him where he's going, but he just left.

Soon-nam, did you guys have a fight?

I bet you gave him such a hard time that he couldn't find...

any peace at home and left to wander outside.

Where did he say he's going?

What's all this raucous about?

Did something happen to Yu-min?

I don't know where he went.

He said he'll be staying out for a while and left.

He ran off?

I'm sorry, Father, Mother.

The one who ran off should be sorry.

It's not your fault.

Did he say where he's going?

No. He got angry and left in a hurry.

He won't answer my calls.

It looks like Jeokhyeonjae and I have caused you two...

quite a lot of heartache.

Please don't say that.

If it's not that,

what reason would you have to fight?

I shouldn't have kept you two here.

Please don't be too distraught.

Yu-min and I must be going through a phase right now.

I'm sorry.

It's all my fault.

Please don't say that, Father.

It only upsets me more.

It makes me feel so ashamed.

I failed to keep my promise to protect Jeokhyeonjae...

and caused Jun-yeong so much heartache.

Now, even Yu-min's gone.

I'm sorry, Father.

I don't think I deserve to be your best pupil.

What is going on?

I can't put on my make-up with you walking around like this!

What's with you? Yu-min is a grown man!

I'm sure he'll be back after a few days.

I don't think he just ran off.

Isn't this technically a separation?

What? Isn't that a lot more serious? A separation?

- Isn't that followed by divorce? - It's more than possible.

Why do you seem excited by the thought of that?

The person you are calling is not available. Please leave a message after the tone.

Why does Yu-min carry a phone if he won't pick up?

Wow! What's gotten into you, Kang Se-jong?

You used to play games until the last minute before school.

It's no fun.

The games we played at Jeokhyeonjae are a hundred times more fun.

When can I go back to Jeokhyeonjae?

- Well, the thing is... - Haven't you heard back from Teacher Oh?

You're not trying to keep me away because I might cause trouble, are you?

Of course not. You're such an exemplary student now.

I want to go back to Jeokhyeonjae.

You should ask Teacher Oh when I can go back.

Okay. I'll do that.

It's me, Yu-min's mother.

What brings you to call so early in the morning?

I was wondering if you're with Yu-min now.

What are you talking about?

Yu-min left the house in the middle of the night.

I was wondering if it had anything to do with you.

He left the house?

Now that she knows, she'll try to find him and ask what happened.

If he uses this chance to get with Director Hwang,

that would be perfect.

Oh dear, Man-pyeong...

What are you saying?

Director Hwang? Does Yu-min have another woman?

Is that why he left the house?

No, of course not. Don't misunderstand.

Why did you have to eavesdrop on my conversation?

How peculiar, listening in on me like that.

(Hwang Se-hui's Marriage Ruined by Her Lover?)

(They say the wedding was canceled because of her lover.)

Was she talking about Hwangryong Group's Hwang Se-hui?

Does that mean Yu-min...

is working with Hwangryong Group?

He left the house?

What are you thinking, Yu-min?

Did you call for me?

Have a seat.

Okay.

I hear Cha Yu-min is Head Master Cha Man-pyeong's son.

Did you leave that out on purpose?

I did...

because it wouldn't help you to know.

Then, what reason did you have to weigh the pros and cons...

and introduce me to the man...

who ruined your wedding?

Gi Seung-jae is the one responsible for that.

That happened because Seung-jae had cheated his little sister.

As a result, I was able to become free from Seung-jae.

I was actually thankful for what he did.

- You were thankful? - Yes.

If it wasn't for that,

I wouldn't have had the courage to break off the wedding.

I was being dragged into a path I knew was not my own.

Do you know how that feels?

Of course, I understand Dad's intentions.

He wants me to be with a man who can help me and the company.

But still...

I am a woman.

In any case, I didn't introduce you to him because of my personal feelings.

If he hadn't been fired,

he would have driven out Gi Seung-jae in a few years...

and taken his seat.

I saw potential in him.

I also saw his ambitions.

There are bad ties between our company and Jeokhyeonjae.

Your father will heavily oppose this.

That's what I expect.

But I'm curious why.

What reason does he have to hate Jeokhyeonjae so much?

Aren't you curious?

I'll go with you, Mother. There will be a lot to carry.

You just stay home and rest.

Look at your eyes all sunken in.

Calling him isn't going to make him come home.

I'll be back before dinner.

I prepared your father's lunch.

You just need to set it for him later.

Don't worry.

I'm a lot better with groceries than you are.

- I'm going along too. - My goodness.

Is anyone home?

This is the one, right?

Yes. I didn't know it was here and looked all over the place.

- I see. That's good. - By the way,

- did you find out what that package was? - Excuse me?

I found something in the well and gave it to the head master. Don't you know?

It seemed like a book.

It looked important.

- Really? - Yes.

Are you still trying to stop me after everything I told you?

What was it you said again?

Right, you said I was terrorizing Jeokhyeonjae. Is that it?

You can't tie me down forever.

The decision is in Mom's hands.

Perhaps.

However, there is one thing you don't know.

Business isn't done based on speculation.

What's visible is more important.

What do you think your mother will see in Cha Yu-min?

What are you trying to say?

We can easily find men who are just as talented.

Why would she bring in someone from a family with bad ties?

Who knows what he could be scheming?

(President Yong Seon-ju calling...)

- You said you weren't sure because you don't know much about business. - Yes.

After hearing you say that,

you almost had me fooled.

I thought you were an honest and trustworthy man.

I hear you were the reason...

Se-hui's wedding was canceled. Is that true?

Yes.

That means you're not trustworthy.

You're just brazen.

With your credentials,

you have no right to be a part of Hwangryong Group.

What were you planning to do behind Se-hui?

I wasn't planning anything.

She asked asked me to work with her, and I agreed.

I'm sure you know that...

your father has been suspecting our company for unbeknownst reasons.

He seems to think the recent incidents...

at Jeokhyeonjae were caused by Hwangryong Group.

He also said he's looking for evidence.

If I accept you into the company,

will you be able to work here?

Your father will be quite opposed.

- I move according to my own will. - But you're a member of Jeokhyeonjae.

Unless you overcome your father's opposition,

it will be impossible for you to become a part of Hwangryong.

Don't rush into a decision and think about it carefully.

Father, it's time for lunch.

Where did he go?

Hi, Myeong-jae.

I was so worried after I talked to you last night. Is everything okay?

- Yes. - Then again, Yu-min looked completely fine.

In fact, he looked well rested!

- You saw him? - Yes. I just saw him here at the company.

Myeong-ja, I have something to ask you.

You'll have to stay sharp there.

The CEO of Hwangryong Distributors is notorious for being a total viper.

- Really? - He may seem like a loyal husband who takes care of his president wife,

but they say he holds the real power in the relationship.

It's clear he's someone we have to watch out for.

And my business card?

Ungil Food's Charlie Kang? What are you even thinking?

It's too obvious if we go in as Kang Un-gil and Kang Du-mul.

You're always complaining about being a front man anyway,

and Charlie Kang has a good ring to it.

You should just go as Kang Du-mul, the CEO of Dumul Foods.

Also, Charlie Kang sounds ridiculous.

You being the CEO is better for the company's image.

Let's go.

What kind of dog-brained notion is that?

Ungil Foods?

I remember hearing about them.

I'll have to meet them myself for things to proceed quickly.

- Hello? - Hello, this is Cha Man-pyeong.

What is it this time?

Do you have something more to ask?

Is it all right if I come see you? I have something to ask.

I'm rather busy. I'm sorry.

Ju Gyeong-hwa! Do you know...

anyone by that name?

"I found out where Cha Yu-min is staying. I'll send you the address."

Hello? Yes.

Excuse me?

This is rather sudden.

All right.

Okay.

What was that about?

The CEO of Hwangryong Distributors has...

an urgent meeting and canceled ours.

What? Who does that so close to the meeting?

That's what I'm saying!

They're the ones who begged us to work with them and meet their CEO,

and now they're breaking it off with a call?

Let's take this one.

What's wrong?

What is it?

Du-mul! Where are you going?

It's so good!

- The baby kicked. - Wait.

- I felt it. - Right?

Wow!

Look at that!

What is it you want to ask this time?

Here.

(Geumpyo Construction's Balance Sheet)

What is this?

I received this from someone who knows about my brother's death.

What do you think this looks like?

- It looks like something out of a ledger. - Yes.

As you can see, the name Ju Gyeong-hwa is in the record.

He says he suspects this woman.

If this woman used to...

work for Hwangryong Industries or Geumpyo Construction,

I thought you might know her and wanted to ask you.

I'm not sure. I don't know if you'll take what I tell you at face value.

If you felt like I was accusing you,

I'm sorry.

I will be meeting with the man who gave me this...

to discuss the details,

but I just couldn't wait...

and wanted to ask you first.

First, I have no idea who that is.

You'll find out soon enough.

I hope you resolve all your misunderstandings about me.

Let's go.

Here are the papers you asked for.

Thank you.

Take care.

Was it really her? I didn't see her.

Won Se-yeong must be working for Hwangryong Group.

Unbelievable!

I bet she's lying about her past and acting like good girl.

I told you not to talk about her like that.

She is still Se-jong's mother.

She may have done wrong, but you can't disrespect her.

I'm really disappointed in you.

On my first leave from the army, you were out looking for her with Se-jong.

Like some crazed man, you didn't eat or even sleep.

Don't you remember how you got pneumonia and almost died?

Do you know how scared I was?

I was so scared you might die and leave me to raise Se-jong by myself!

I was petrified!

Do you know how much I hated that woman?

- I told you not to call her that! - Du-mul!

Dear heavens!

My goodness...

It was Hwang Bong-cheol.

Ju-pyeong was trying to protect that ledger from him.

I'm really not supposed to let you in.

Cha Yu-min, what are you doing here?

- Hello? - This is Oh Soon-nam.

I am Cha Yu-min's wife.

I'd like to meet with you.

Okay. Let's meet.

Yu-min...

I'm glad you're back.

What happened?

You left without a word.

You should think of your family.

I'm here to say my last goodbye.

What do you mean?

I'm leaving Jeokhyeonjae.

I already told Soon-nam.

Is it because of Hwangryong Group?

Is it because of Hwang Se-hui?

Yes. I'm entering Hwangryong Group...

to work with Director Hwang Se-hui.

You can't do that! That's out of the question!

Why not? Why can't I?

What does Hwangryong Group have to do with Jeokhyeonjae?

Forget it.

There's no reason to get so heated.

I don't know why you're saying this,

but I'm leaving.

Your father, Ju-pyeong,

was done an injustice because of that company!

That again?

Listen to me.

- I finally found evidence. - Forget it!

I believe...

my birth father really was a corrupt cop.

He died because he deserved to!

How dare you?

I know you don't want to admit it.

You've comfortably lived your whole life as the eldest...

and never had to toil for a day in your life.

Do you know what it's like to have your pride ground into dust?

Do you know how it feels to be trampled on like some worm?

My birth father...

took bribes because it was hard to make a living,

while my birth mother was being chased by creditors...

and did the unfathomable.

Who do you think I'll take after more,

since I'm not...

your real son?

Yu-min...

It looks like I didn't raise you right.

Yes.

Unfortunately, it's true.

So stop talking to me like a babe in the woods.

You can hide here and go on about Confucius and Mencius...

all you like.

Stop trying to blame Hwangryong Group and let me go!

Here!

Here it is.

It's proof of your father's innocence!

This here...

is the reason you can't be a part of Hwangryong Group!

- What is this? - Look.

- If you look inside... - I don't know what these are,

but I'll consider it your last gift.

No! Yu-min! No, Yu-min!

- Don't do this! - What are you doing?

- Let go of me. - Cha Yu-min!

- I told you to let go! - Cha Yu-min! Yu-min!

Hey, Yu-min! Yu-min? Wait!

What's with him?

Man-pyeong? Are you home?

No one by the name Won Se-yeong works here.

Please check one more time.

I already checked several times.

I'm sorry.

Yes, Mother?

Mother, what's wrong?

Won Se-yeong?

What are you saying?

I'm on my way.

I'll be right there, Mother.

Won Se-yeong...

("Teacher Oh Soon-nam")

- Let go of me! - You're going to run again? How long will you run?

I'm sorry about yesterday.

Forget it. There's nothing to be sorry or careful about.

What's with Uncle?

- What? - He had a brain hemorrhage at his residence late last night.

It looks like the heavens helped us.

- What should I do about the ledger? - Find it.

Who are you?

- How did you know I was here? - Don't you know what happened?

- What are you talking about? - Hurry and go to Jeokhyeonjae.
