- Hello, Mrs. Yun.
- Where's Yi-seol?

She said that she
handed in her resignation.

How dare she!

I understand. I'll take care of it.

(Episode 15)
I came to Seoul last night

as soon as I heard
the news of redevelopment.

People begin calling me
about buying my house.

I made 100 million won in a few days.

I'm going to sell the place.

So, you've become successful, Yong-seob.

You're the one that's really successful.

Your Art Concert
was the talk of the town.

There were advertisements for it
all over.

Good for you.

It's good that you used her.

I quit.

- I didn't start because I wanted to.
- Hey!

That was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

So, you're going to
get revenge for Yeong-ju?

I don't know.

Can I even get revenge if I tried?

Then why did you quit?

Jung Jun-hyeok's father has stopped

searching for the child, hasn't he?

So, all you have to do is play along.

Jung Jun-hyeok probably
doesn't remember you or me.

He knows everything now.

He told me

that I shouldn't act vengeful
just because I was unfortunate.

What the hell…

So, you just let it slide?

Find the child and show him
the consequences of his actions.

He'd dead.

Who's dead?

The child you sent away to be adopted?

I thought

that he would be doing well.

That's what I wanted to believe.

[HAN DONG-MIN]

The child's foster parents
asked me to give this to you.

They asked that you come alone.

The address is in the envelope.

[BIRTH CERTIFICATE]

[FATHER: JUNG JUN-HYEOK

[DATE ISSUED; MARCH 14TH, 2015

[DATE AND TIME OF BIRTH: 11:26 PM,

It's 11:26 PM, March 14th.
It's a boy, and he weighs 3.2 kilograms.

[DATE AND TIME OF BIRTH: 11:26 PM,
MARCH 14TH, 2015]

[CERTIFICATE OF STILLBIRTH
FATHER: UNKNOWN MOTHER: NO YEONG-JU]

[DATE ISSUED; MARCH 14TH, 2015
HOSPITAL: HYEONGSAN OBSTETRICAL CLINIC]

I'm sure he's healthy and well.

And I'm sure that
his entire family loves him.

Somewhere, the people who are
raising your kid

will think of you every day

and thank you

for giving birth to
such a precious child,

even though they don't even know
what you look like.

Hello.

What are you doing here?

Mommy!

Mommy!

Hi, Yi-seol.

I prepared this place as Jun-hyeok's
campaign headquarters.

But you never said that you needed one,

so I took the liberty of using it first.

Mommy.

Isn't Yi-seol coming with us?

Hyeon-wu, I want you to
count to one hundred.

Why?

Just do as I say.

Jeez…

You said you wanted to leave.

So leave.

Do whatever you want.

Mrs. Yun.

What is it?

Do you think this changes anything?

Do you think you've beaten me?

Think again.

Hyeon-wu is my son.

Get that through your head.

I won't forgive you
if you try anything funny.

You already gave up your child,

and you've been doing fine without him.

And you thought he was dead.

So, just keep thinking that

since nothing has changed at all.

Were you

behind this plot?

I wouldn't exactly call it a plot.

How much do you know?

What in the world happened
to make you like this?

You must not want to tell me.

So, how would I know anything
when you won't tell me?

I just cleaned up the mess

created by thoughtless
and irresponsible people.

Talk to Jae-hui

and work it out with her.

Jun-hyeok.

What are you so engrossed in?

- Take a look at this.
- What is it?

After the report on Minister Park,

I've been researching the real estate
investments of government officials.

[NO JIN-YEONG]
No Jin-yeong, Minister Park's
brother-in-law,

and his sister, Minister Park's wife

have been buying up properties

in Yi-Seol's neighborhood

which has also been slated
for redevelopment.

I looked into it and it's true.

He's resigning because of
a real estate scandal,

but he's still buying real estate.

- What about these documents in the back?
- Well…

you always told me that

a reporter's hunch can't be the news

but it can help you uncover the news,
so I kept on digging.

And?

And I found some more interesting things

connected with Sungjin Trade.

Kwak Gi-hwan purchased real estate

in the area in Hyeongsan-dong where
the incident occurred 7 years ago

and made quite a hefty profit.

Then, Min Seong-sik…

Why don't you mourn for the death

of your poor child?

It's hard to live in poverty
with nothing to your name,

isn't it?

You can't protect the people you cherish.

Your child may have died

in the arms of strangers.

But mine enjoys a happy life

in the safety of his home
just because he's mine.

That's why I put up with Jun-hyeok.

Do you understand?

I think we should reorganize
the task force.

I don't like the fact that

Min Seong-sik and Kwak Gi-hwan
are under Mother's influence.

Why don't we choose people who
don't have such questionable morality?

Where can we find such people?

Bring them to me

so I can see them.

This is all your fault.

You shouldn't have
involved Dong-min in this.

Didn't I tell you?

He's a dangerous idealist.

You made him into a big shot.

So, for his new report,

he's investigating the real estate
investments of government officials.

The presidential election
is right around the corner.

He has no idea of the kind
of uproar he'll cause

for crying out loud.

You really think he doesn't know?

He just wants to be successful

like any other human being.

Just like you and me.

But that's the problem.

He doesn't know his place.

Everyone has his place
and station in life.

Mother treated me like that,
so I stabbed her in the back.

She said, "how dare you!"

She disregarded me,
thinking that I should be satisfied

with what little she gave me.

You should be over your
inferiority complex by now.

- Mommy…
- Don't come any closer!

Stay there.

I thought that you were aware
that I owned the piece.

I asked myself,
what could your motive be

for placing an advertisement
looking for the work?

Were you trying to reconcile with me

or trying to force me to donate it?

I was puzzling over this

when this unpleasantness occurred.

I'm sorry.

Thank you for telling us about it.

Think nothing of it.

You and I are both working
to advance Korean art.

But the fact that a place like

the Sungjing Gallery couldn't
detect a fake artwork

should be a concern

for all of us that work
in the world of art.

I apologize for

not being more careful.

However,

I can't be sure that your work,
Professor Yu, is real, either.

We'll ask the person who donated
the piece about how he came to acquire it

and if we deem it necessary,

we'll have a panel of experts
authenticate it.

Bring me the acquisition form
for the work by Son Sang-ki.

Yes, ma'am.

Did you meet the foster parents?

Also, is the child in a cemetery?

Give me the number of your boss.

I can't. It's too dangerous.

I thought that he gave you money

when you brought him Yeong-ju's laptop?

You said he was worried

other clients could find out that
the Cho Gang-hyeon video was leaked.

You said that it didn't seem like
he killed Yeong-ju.

So, why are you saying he's dangerous?

I also told you that

they're not the kind of people
we can stand up against.

When I stole the Jung Jun-hyeok video
and gave it to Yu Jin-seok,

I almost got killed.

My Little Boss caught me,
and I went to the house.

I told you I had
a Big Boss who's a woman, remember?

And she was at that house.

She seemed very close with
Jung Jun-hyeok's adopted mother.

Think about it.

I know she owns a bar for VIPs,

but how many bar owners
are close with billionaires?

Jung Jun-hyeok's adopted mother…

Chairwoman Seo Han-suk?

So, your Big Boss is close
with the chairwoman?

That's right.

They seemed to be real close.

So you should forget about everything.

Yi-seol, let's go visit your child.

Look at me.

I'm wearing new clothes to visit
my nephew at his grave.

My son

is alive.

What?

[ARTWORK ACQUISITIONS FORM]

[The number you dialed
is no longer in service.]

It's all fake.

None of the phone numbers work.

Should we call the police?

- Take care.
- Bye.

I hope our next meeting
will be more pleasant.

[BIG BOSS 010-1207-0442]
Here's the number, but be extra careful.

Okay?

What brings you here?

I'm here to see Mrs. Yun.

Is something wrong?

I have something important
to discuss with you about Hyeon-wu.

There's nothing
to discuss about him.

And even if there
were something to discuss,

what right do you have

to bring it up with me,
Hyeon-wu's mother?

You're right.

I don't have the right.

I already abandoned my child

seven years ago because of money.

However,

I can't let the child I gave birth to

live under the same roof
as Jung Jun-hyeok.

So, what do you want me to do?

You and I were used

- during Hyeon-wu's adoption.
- No.

I'm the victim.

You, Jun-hyeok, and Chairwoman Seo

caused this problem,

and Hyeon-wu and I are the victims.

I didn't even know that

and was wracked with guilt
about secretly adopting a son.

So I did my utmost to love
and care for Hyeon-wu.

My only wrongdoing

was to show you
my sympathy and generosity.

I thought your sad story

somehow guaranteed
that you were a good person.

This is the reason I got involved
with the fake artwork.

I was so taken by the offer
to sell us the work for a nominal price

that I trusted a person
I'd never seen in my life.

Don't you ever play victim
in front of me again.

I won't forgive you.

Then don't forgive me.

Don't just talk.

Just do it.

How dare you!

You don't even have the courage.

Do you think it's
because I'm scared of you?

It's because I don't want to hurt my son.

I don't want to do anything to hurt him.

That's why I'm doing
my best to be patient.

So don't anger me anymore.

The moment I reach
the limit of my patience,

there's no telling
what I am capable of doing.

You must take responsibility
for this incident.

You should quit your post
as CEO of the gallery.

And if you can't bear it,

you can get a divorce.

I'll give you a handsome alimony
since you did

such an excellent job raising Hyeon-wu.

I'm sure

that as a human being,

you do have a conscience.

But you can't make a decision right away.

I'll give you a few days

so give it some careful thought.

Thank you, Mother.

I no longer have to feel guilty

for secretly adopting
a son without you knowing.

But I can't quit being CEO.

Nothing is going to change.

Hyeon-wu is still my son

and I am still the CEO of
the Sungjin Cultural Foundation

and director of Sungjin Gallery.

And my husband, Jun-hyeok
is still the future president.

Mother,

all you have to do is help us
the best you can, just as you promised.

I'm going to keep my eye on you.

If you keep your promise to help,

I'll forgive you
for deceiving me until now.

Don't you want to make the son

you gave birth to out of wedlock
into the Chairman of the Sungjin Group?

You should take
better care of your mother.

Yes, Father.

And keep better control of your wife.

Okay.

How dare she talk about divorce?

Do you know what your mother went through

by merely choosing to give birth to you?

I'd rather not hear that

anymore.

You won't let me return home?
Why are you being like this?

Mother?

Dad, that's not my fault.

I can't bear it anymore!

You can't hold me responsible for that!

Dad!

The reason you keep repeating that

time after time is because

you want to hide all the hurt

you caused mother by your mistakes.

You want to increase my sense of guilt

so you keep repeating what you just said.

I've had enough.

Mother pulled all the advertisements,

and my parents have
forbidden me to return.

My father wants us
to maintain this marriage,

but we can't do that, can we?

You take care of it.

I'll stay away until then.

Didn't your father forbid you
from returning home?

- So, where are you going?
- Take care of it quickly

and give me a divorce.

What are you doing here?

I need you to investigate these people.

Find out everything,

everything that could
possibly be used against them.

Someone is accusing one of the pieces
at my gallery as being fake.

I have to get it authenticated
no matter what.

So this is…

You're right.

It's a list of the most influential
people in the art world.

Jae-hui…

Is it too difficult for you?

So, there's nothing I can do without
Chairwoman Seo Han-suk's help?

Did Chairwoman Seo hold you
accountable for the fake?

You asked me whether I'd met

Hyeon-wu's birthmother, remember?

I didn't think you wanted to
talk about it.

It turns out that

Hyeon-wu is Jun-hyeok's real son.

And Yi-seol is the birthmother.

Seo Han-suk was behind it all.

She knew I was planning
to adopt a son in secret

and tricked me into adopting
Jun-hyeok's real son.

Do you know what she said to me?

Why are you standing here?

If you have something to discuss,
we can talk inside.

You promised Ju-yeon's parents

that you'd advertise on their paper
when we got married.

But she wants a divorce.

Then we'll divorce.

Please give us your permission.

And give Ju-yeon
the alimony that she wants.

And what do you want?

I want nothing.

That is your problem.

I've always

done as you asked.

Please, do as I ask.

This is the first favor

that I'm ever asking of you.

How is Hyeon-wu?

He's been asking about
when you would come home.

He just fell asleep.

Hyeon-wu is already asleep.

I've missed you all day long today,
my dear Hyeon-wu.

I should have come home earlier.

Then, I could have seen Hyeon-wu's face.

Hyeon-wu, honey,
did I wake you?

Mommy.

Why'd you scream at me this morning?

Were you upset about that?

Yeah.

Come here.

Mommy is so sorry.

It's because I was scared.

I was scared that you
would get hurt, Hyeon-wu.

Mommy, do you want to play dominoes?

You should sleep at night.

So you can be tall and healthy.

Let's play dominoes later.

Right now, you should sleep
with your teddy bear, okay?

Okay.

I love you, Mommy.

I love you very much, Hyeon-wu.

Mommy, isn't the nametag
on my teddy nice?

Yes, it's very nice.

Did the maid make it for you?

No. It was Yi-seol.

She made it for me.

Remember when grandpa brought

a whole bunch of your favorite grapes?

I let Yi-seol borrow my teddy then.

I promised to buy her
lots and lots of her favorite apples

when I grew up and made
lots of money like Dad,

and Yi-seol made the nametag
because she was thankful.

Didn't I do good, Mommy?

You did good.

You did very good, Hyeon-wu.

Mommy, stay next to me
until I fall asleep.

Of course!

Mommy will always be by your side.

Let's sleep.

This is a picture
from the artist's family.

They say it's true that Mr. Park Chi-ho
purchased it 35 years ago.

They said they'll check on the piece

that Yu Jin-seok owns and get back to us.

What a relief.

Mrs. Yun will be so happy
when she finds out.

You've helped us even though
you don't work here anymore.

Thank you so much for everything.

Have you found where Ju-yeon is staying?

Yes. We've found the hotel she's
staying at by tracing her credit card.

I'm sorry. I tried to stop her but…

Hello, Big Boss.

- You're dismissed.
- Okay.

You knew about it too, Chairwoman?

You knew that Goh Mi-seon has been

running an illicit bar
called the Minerva?

What is the reason for your rudeness?

You know about what happened

on that day seven years ago?

What is it you want to say?

Hello, Mrs. Yun.

I wanted to tell you myself.

But the chairwoman
found out about it first

and instructed that the piece
be put on display again.

- Is the chairwoman in?
- She's talking with a guest.

You must be relieved.

I'm glad that the work
has been authenticated,

but that's not the only thing that
Yu Jin-seok visited you about, is it?

So, you knew?

If he wanted to just get back at me,

he wouldn't have gone to visit you first.

That's why I was planning

to have the painting authenticated
no matter what it took.

Yi-seol made such a thing unnecessary.

Yu Jin-seok wants to join us.

He's grown ambitious, seeing how
quickly Jun-hyeok's numbers have gone up.

He may be

part of the current administration,

but he's only an old albatross

that needs to be
looked after in their eyes.

And he knows it as well.

However,

I think he could be useful.

What do you think, Jae-hui?

I'll do as you say, Mother.

Also,

Kim Yi-seol wants me
to make you divorce.

I won't divorce.

So, you'll raise Hyeon-wu
and support Jun-hyeok

as if nothing ever happened?

Can you live like that?

[KIM YI-SEOL'S ART CONCERT]

You don't have to investigate
those people. It's been resolved.

There's one thing I didn't tell you.

Yu Jin-seok was behind

the accusation of forgery.

He wants to join the election task force.

Thanks to that,

I was able to get a new opportunity.

Tell Jun-hyeok what kind of man

Yu Jin-seok is.

What if I tell him?

I could tell him that Yu Jin-seok

tried to coerce me into sex.

But

what if he threatens to kill him
just as you did?

And what if he

really follows through with that threat?

Then what am I going to do?

Men always care more about their pride,
especially in cases like this.

Also, it isn't easy for me

to tell people

that I received such treatment.

I thought about

pretending that I was dead

and doing what he wanted

to get what I wanted in return.

I was so angry at myself

for even considering such a shameful

and insulting offer.

That bastard was using
your poor circumstances.

It's not your fault.

It would have been nice had you
been so understanding back then.

Back then, you were angry at me

as if I caused such behavior.

You told me to quit my work

and offered to marry me as if
you were doing me a favor.

I don't care what happens.

I'm going to bear it.

I'll bear both Jun-hyeok and Yu Jin-seok.

I'm going to bear it and do
everything Seo Han-suk tells me to do.

And in the end,

I'm going to get everything I want.

I won't let myself become the object

of pity ever again.

Oh my,

I'm honored to meet
a presidential candidate.

I'm Yu Jin-seok.

It's a little early
to call me a candidate.

But, it's nice to meet you.

- I'm Jung Jun-hyeok.
- Thank you.

Mrs. Yun, you've grown
even more beautiful than before.

You must receive
lots of love from your wife.

You have quite a way with words.

For men of weak constitution like us,

living with a beautiful woman

requires a quick wit and a silver tongue.

I can see that you'll be
of great help to me.

I see that your judgment
of character is uncanny.

- Take a seat.
- Thank you.

Hello, Mr. Yang. Are you here?

Thank you for coming all the way here.

The meal is almost over,
so you can join their table.

Okay.

Mrs. Yun.

You shouldn't have involved me
if you were going to recruit Mr. Yu.

I'm the one that prosecuted him
and had him interrogated.

- He must still be angry at me.
- I'll make sure that

things won't be uncomfortable.

We're counting on you.

Go on inside.

Did Chairwoman Seo

say anything when she decided
to have Yu Jin-seok join us?

I mean about

the party organization

or the organization of
the administration in the future.

Don't worry. Mr. Yu won't take
your position, Congressman Min.

You didn't tell Han-suk about

our petty little misunderstandings,
did you?

Of course not.

She would have addressed such issues
if she had been aware of them.

Well, let me jusy say

you once again prove yourself
a very clever woman.

What about after the meal?

I heard that Yu Jin-seok likes to party
so I prepared accordingly.

But Chairwoman Seo told me to ask you.

Give him what he wants.

Okay.

Go on inside.

I'll take my leave.
Thank you.

[HYEONGSAN AREA 5
REDEVELOPMENT CONFIRMED!]

[RESIDENTS REDEVELOPMENT ASSOCIATION]

[ASSOCIATION PRESIDENT / PARK MAN-GUK]

Hi. I'm Han Dong-min, a reporter of JBC.

I have some questions to ask about
the redevelopment of Hyeongsan Area 5.

It's been a long time, Mr. Han.

How are you?

What brings you here all of a sudden?

Well,

you know Hyeongsan Area 5 which
was confirmed for redevelopment?

I heard that it was confirmed after
it was almost cancelled.

They must have hurried because they were
worried it could get cancelled again.

It hasn't been long
since they've been confirmed,

but it seems the construction company
has already been decided.

- Is that what the association says?
- They said that they'll have a bid.

But the real estate brokers say that
the apartments will be built by Sungjin.

That's how it was with us.

Everyone knew that
the construction company was decided.

But they put the project up for bidding
and when that failed,

they gave the project to Sungjin Trade.

Everyone said it was collusion,

but the people with the houses liked it

because Sungjin brand apartments
are the best.

It was the same with
the demolition company.

- The demolition company?
- For Area 5,

since the construction company
is Sungjin,

the demolition will be done by
Myeongseong Industries.

But hopefully,

nothing bad will happen this time
since Jung Jun-hyeok gave his promise.

Yu Jin-seok seems
like a decent man, doesn't he?

We'll have to make him compete
with Congressman Min.

I'm glad. I was worried because I know
that you don't like Congressman Min.

How should we do it?

Should we send Yu Jin-seok into
the Liberty Party before I join

to clean it up and invite me?

- What do you think?
- I think it's a good idea.

Tell me when you've decided,
and I'll make it happen.

Okay.

Yes, we've just arrived home.

Put him on.

Hi, Hyeon-wu.

Really?

Hold on. I'll be right there.

Bye.

Hyeon-wu is in the playground and wants
me to bring him his scooter.

I'll take it to him.
Go inside and get some rest.

I want to play with him today.

I'll see you later.

It started to pour all of a sudden.

Huh? There's Yi-seol.

Mommy!

Take a seat.

Why are you giving me such a hard time?

You turned a blind eye on Aunt
and her brother, Congressman Min.

If you won't let me get a divorce
for going against you,

then what do you expect me to do?

A sinner cannot decide on her punishment.

That's not something
you should say, Mother.

We all know how you treat everybody here.

If Father or Jun-hyeok
did anything wrong,

you swept it under the rug lest
it be the source of rumors

and turned a blind eye.

Then, you'd use it

to control the two when you needed to.

That is how I protected this family.

And that's what you need to learn
how to do in the future.

Do you know why I turned a blind eye
on Ji-yeong and her brother?

Do you think I forgave them
for the trouble they caused

hand-in-hand with you?

No.

But I would get nothing
for punishing them.

And I don't do anything unless
I gain from it somehow.

Now,

think again.

Why do you think I'm doing this to you?

What

do you want to get from me?

There you go.

Why won't you leave me alone?

Are you scared?

That I'll take everything from you?

That will never happen.

I'll do anything to protect what I have.

Have you thought about
the price you'll have to pay?

You saw it yourself.

The kind of treatment I get here.

Still, I realized thanks to you,

that this is the safest place for me.

You lost your parents when you were young

and in order to protect the home
you lived in with your grandmother,

you needed the help of someone powerful.
When I heard that,

I felt sad for you but also scared.

You showed me that in this world,

you had to give
your own child up for adoption

for money to buy a home.

I don't want to live like that.

You mustn't act like you deserve

everything that you have,
all your luxuries.

If people like Yun Jae-hui

whom you scorn,

don't envy you
and hold you up on a pedestal,

all of that can disappear
in the blink of an eye.

Make Jae-hui long for what you have.

Make her do things for you

and think for you.

Make her want to fill your needs
even before you ask.

Just leave.

I'll have no more problems with you gone.

No.

I can't just leave like this.

Please.

Help me out this once.

I told you, no.

Are you trying to ruin me?

Do you think there's
anything else to ruin?

Do you know how pathetic you are?

You live alongside
people who disrespect you,

trying your best to please them
and to get something out of them!

Like you're crazy.

Yes, I am crazy!

How else can I go on?

Nothing gets better
no matter how hard I try.

I try to bear it.

So until when
do I have to live like this?

Yi-seol.

Please go away.

I beg of you.

I can't.

There's no way that's happening.

I beg of you!

Wait until I've made a decision about

what to do with you.

(Artificial City)

How do I explain it to Hyeon-wu?

About the relationship
between Jun-hyeok and Yi-seol

and how Hyeon-wu was born.

I had a child out of wedlock?

Is that what

your wife told you?

I will take care of Yi-seol.

I'll make sure of it.

[TO JBC REPORTER HAN DONG-MIN]

If anything happens to me,
send it to this person.

He says that he knows where
the two were

on the day of
the Hyeongsan-dong Tragedy 7 years ago.

Jae-hui isn't that kind of person.

You knew about everything
that happened that day?

What do you think you could do
in opposition to me?
