Original subtitles

Hwa Kyung came by earlier in the day to apologize to you, right?

She didn't swing by the restaurant. She left right away.

Did you two make up?

Not at all.

She upset me even more, Mother.

What did she say?

She treated us like materialistic freeloaders.

As though we want to marry Yeong I off to that rich family...

so we can benefit from it somehow.

Benefit from it? How?

That is out of line.

You think so too, right?

Even the earth and the sky know.

If I expected to benefit even just a bit...

from her relationship with that guy,

I would change my surname.

What is a surname, Grandpa?

You're Kim Mi Ri Nae, right?

- Yes. - Your surname is Kim.

The Kim family. That's what a surname is.

I see.

Hey. Wouldn't her surname be Jang soon?

Be quiet.

Eun Sook.

It's all because she's putting her own child first.

You're her elder sister-in-law,

and you're more understanding and forgiving than she is,

so just try to understand.

What's gotten into Mother? She complimented me for once.

Does Eun Jin pay you for all the work you do?

Or are you working for free because she is your girlfriend now?

- Girlfriend? - Girlfriend?

Mom, are you going crazy or something?

Eun Jin would never date him in her right mind.

Is she your girlfriend now?

Gosh.

I won't go to her cafe anymore.

Hey, Do Young. I do not appreciate what you said.

You think she wouldn't date me unless she lost her mind?

I thought she already lost her mind.

What do you mean?

I saw them kiss.

What? Kiss?

You mean, the kind that we do?

Yes.

Why did you guys do that?

Goodness. Why are you interrogating me like this?

Mom, Dad. Do Young, you too. Listen carefully.

I think I have feelings for Eun Jin.

Although I don't think she feels the same way.

Anyway, that's all you need to know for now.

Gosh, that fool. Why did he have to drop out of college?

Why are you bringing that up again?

Eun Jin is far out of his league in every aspect...

even though he's my son.

Agreed.

So he asked for the managing director position?

Out of the blue?

Yes, well...

He has completed his internship.

I suppose he thought about it and arrived at such a decision.

Father, you also think...

that it's a bit of a stretch, right?

Well, why not?

Appoint him on the coming Monday.

- Pardon? - What?

Father, but...

Why? Do you have a problem with it?

No, it's not that.

I thought you'd make Kyung Jun start at the bottom of the ladder...

so he could learn step by step.

He worked at the convenience store and completed his internship.

He did start at the bottom of the ladder...

and has learned everything he needs to know.

I'm back.

Hey, Se Jun. Welcome back.

My younger son. You're back.

Did you have a good trip?

- Yes. - Where did you go?

I was so curious...

but didn't want to bother you. That's why I didn't call you.

Sit down and tell us.

Maybe later. I'm tired now.

That brat.

I guess he went to a bunch of places.

Please excuse me.

Where have you been?

Don't tell me you went to see Won Sub.

No, I didn't. I just met up with some friends...

and had drinks with them.

It was nice to hear about their lives without having to worry...

about work.

It helped me relieve stress.

Did it?

I'm tired. I should wash up and go to bed.

Will you keep standing there?

What? Oh, sorry.

Get some rest.

Mom, I must find out...

the truth behind that day that you're hiding.

Even if it pains me to know the truth,

I won't run away anymore.

I will uncover the truth on my own...

and face it head-on.

I'm home, Father.

You're getting in late. Get some rest.

Soo Wan told me what happened.

Hae Mi did such a foolish thing.

The truth was bound to come out like this.

I heard you asked for the managing director position.

Yes.

Please help me, Grandpa.

I hope you can keep your promise.

When you look down from a high place,

you see things that you shouldn't see.

Will that be all right?

I'll deal with it.

Once you go up, you shouldn't even think about coming back down.

Can you handle that too?

I'm prepared.

Excuse me. Who are you?

Oh, didn't we meet at Do Jin's niche?

Yes, that's right.

It looks like I've come to the right place.

What brings you here?

To tell you the truth,

I lived in the town where Dr. Kim worked as a public health doctor.

I know this may come across as intrusive,

but I really wanted to thank his family in person,

so I contacted the public health center and asked them.

I thought you might have moved,

but I figured I should check anyway,

so I'm here.

I'm glad you came.

Oh, the elders are inside. Let's go inside together.

My gosh. Thank you.

I'm home.

Goodness, speak of the devil. Come on in.

Father, Mother. We have a guest.

A guest? At this hour?

- Here. - Hello.

I'm sorry to visit you at this late hour.

Who is he, Yeong I?

Who's here?

Grandma, Father, and Mother.

He's here to thank us because Do Jin helped him a lot...

when he worked as a public health doctor.

I met him once when I was visiting Do Jin's niche.

This is Do Jin's grandmother. Meet his parents too.

Hello, ma'am.

Hello, sir and ma'am.

My name is Sim Won Sub.

I was abroad for many years.

I recently returned to Korea but settled down in the countryside,

so I couldn't visit you sooner.

My gosh.

Do Jin helped you? What do you mean?

Let's sit down. Please sit down and tell us.

- Eun Sook. - Yes?

Go bring out some fruit and tea.

Sure thing, Mother.

Yeong I, go upstairs and tell Do Sik and Do Young to come down.

They should meet him too.

- Okay, Father. - Please sit here.

Okay, thank you.

Everything in this house looks so old.

This big family still lives in this tiny house.

No wonder they couldn't afford to investigate their son's death.

So when Do Jin was working as a public health doctor,

you ran your own woodworking studio in that town?

Gosh, it was just a small studio.

I did it as a hobby.

Dr. Kim was always very polite to the elders...

and sweet to children.

I knew that he was a kind person,

but he was so good to me.

When I hurt my leg and couldn't move,

he visited my home every day...

to give injections, change bandages,

and make sure I would take my medicine.

I'll never meet another doctor like him.

Thanks to him, my leg healed without a single scar.

My son was like that.

He was incredibly tenderhearted,

and he was such a nice person.

I went away for a few days,

then I heard he suddenly went to Seoul.

I wondered what was going on.

Later on, I found out...

about the incident.

"Incident?"

You're making it sound like he died a wrongful death.

Oh, my bad. It was an accident.

I heard the accident took place...

when Dr. Kim went to the sea alone.

I still find it so hard to believe.

He was very athletic.

I can't believe he lost his footing and fell into the sea.

So? Have you looked into it?

Oh, it's just that...

I find it so hard to believe too.

He was such a nice person.

We did our best to look further into it,

but the police concluded...

that he died after losing his footing.

I don't believe it.

Even if everyone says that is what happened,

I don't believe it.

Honey.

It feels weird to hear about Do Jin after so long.

Mi Ri Nae, your dad was such a wonderful person.

Don't ever forget that.

I won't. Mom tells me the same thing every day.

I knew Dr. Kim was married,

but I didn't know he had a daughter.

She was born after her father died.

My goodness.

Gosh.

You're trying to forget about him and move on, but I showed up.

Gosh, I'm sorry.

Don't be.

Losing your child is not something you can forget.

We're just trying hard not to think about him.

It was nice to hear about Do Jin after so long.

Thank you, Mr. Sim.

Oh, right.

Here, it's red ginseng.

My goodness. You didn't have to bring anything.

We would've been so grateful even if you came empty-handed.

We run the beef bone soup restaurant across the street.

Next time, visit us at lunchtime.

I'll make you delicious beef bone soup.

Thank you, ma'am.

I just stopped by to say hello.

I should get going.

My gosh. You're leaving already?

Stay healthy, all of you.

I'll never forget Dr. Kim's kindness.

Thank you. You should look after your health too.

Gosh, don't come out. You should go back inside.

Just go back inside.

I didn't get to say a proper goodbye the last time.

Thank you for visiting us today.

Stay strong, Ms. Lee Yeong I.

Yes, thank you.

- Get back safely. - Thank you. Take care.

You said you exchanged names the day you visited Do Jin.

Why didn't you ask him for his number?

Then I could've thanked him.

I'm so grateful to him for remembering and visiting Do Jin.

I didn't have a chance to ask him for his number.

That day, he left in a hurry.

But I don't recall telling him my name.

Honey.

Mother.

I'm just so grateful.

Someone else other than the family...

remembers Do Jin. I'm incredibly grateful for this.

I thought...

the world had completely erased Do Jin.

I'm sure he's not the only one...

who remembers and misses Do Jin.

- Yes. - Do Jin was a wonderful person.

Yes.

These fools. Their enemy is right in front of them,

yet they have no idea.

Lee Yeong I... Shall I get rid of her now?

Or not?

No one is even trying to find out what really happened.

Instead of rocking the boat,

I should just keep my lips sealed and let it go.

Cha Yoon Hee.

You're one lucky woman.

That was it.

The picture I saw that day.

The truth I found out that day.

Perhaps, my father is...

Hey, Kyung Jun.

Did you just get home?

Yes.

Join me if you aren't too tired.

Let's have a beer.

Let's sit down.

Do you have an important announcement to make?

You even prepared snacks.

You want me to get straight to the point?

We don't need to beat around the bush, do we?

But if it's about work, I'll be disappointed.

It'd better be about...

you getting married or something.

Look at you, Se Jun. You can crack jokes now.

I'm sorry to disappoint you, but it is about work.

The person who stole Yeong I's proposal...

It was Hae Mi.

What? It was Ms. Kim?

She did it to make sure Yeong I wouldn't get a permanent position?

She really is putting everything on the line.

If she gets caught,

she could end up in court for corporate espionage.

So? What happened?

She got a six-month pay cut.

As for Yeong I, she's getting a permanent position.

Just a pay cut?

That's too light a punishment.

To be honest,

this was the reason I wanted to have a drink with you.

I...

asked for the managing director position...

on the condition that I wouldn't expose Hae Mi.

Father and Mother...

already knew about what Hae Mi did.

Mom's like that, so I'm not surprised.

But Father too?

I'm disappointed in him.

Well done, Kyung Jun.

You have to protect Yeong I, so you made the right decision.

I made such a decision without even consulting you first.

- Sorry about that. - Hey, what are you talking about?

Of course, you should be my boss.

Kyung Jun.

Congratulations.

Thanks.

By the way,

where did you have to go all by yourself?

I could've gone with you on the weekend.

I need some alone time too, you see.

I just wandered around from place to place.

You know, when we were little...

You knew well that I couldn't see,

but you always asked me to open bottles for you,

make drawings for you, and play soccer with you.

You always bothered me like that and never left me alone.

Was I a nuisance to you?

Yes, a huge nuisance.

But you see,

I was always grateful to you for that.

Back then, you were the only one who treated me like a normal person,

not someone who was visually impaired.

You never pitied me.

You totally respected me as your older brother.

Jang Se Jun.

You've done so much for me, so it's my turn to return the favor.

I will be sure to repay you.

So please don't keep everything bottled up inside. Talk to me, okay?

Okay, I will.

Kyung Jun.

No matter who my father is,

you'll always be...

my brother, right?

(Jang Kyung Jun, Managing Director)

Talk about a fast-track promotion.

I wish Ms. Kim were here to see this.

Why did she take the day off?

I can't believe the company owner's son was a mere intern for so long.

Congratulations, Managing Director Jang Kyung Jun.

I feel like things are finally falling into place now.

Thank you, Ms. Im.

Are you already trying to curry favor with him?

Of course not.

Congratulations, Kyung Jun.

I'm now a permanent employee too,

so I'll make morning coffee for everyone.

What? You're making coffee? Not buy them from a cafe?

I guess she's sad because she can't see her boyfriend every day...

in the office.

Don't worry. I got this.

I'm sorry I couldn't give you a heads-up.

You must've been surprised.

Like Ms. Im said,

I got the position because my family owns the company,

so it was a little embarrassing to tell you myself.

Come on. Do you think I'm being like this because I'm surprised?

I feel very small right now.

"His family is rich."

"His grandfather is the chairman of this company."

"His father is the president, and his mother is the vice president."

"His brother is a director."

"So a day like this is bound to come."

I reminded myself every single day so I wouldn't forget.

And?

But every day, I forget.

We worked in the same office and saw each other every day,

so I felt like we had become very close.

But now, I suddenly feel like there's this huge gap between us.

"Right, that's where he belongs."

I keep telling myself that,

but I still can't help but feel so small.

We're at work now.

I know that.

And luckily for us, my grandfather owns this company.

Let's stay like this for a moment.

I'm not going far.

You can always reach me,

so don't worry.

You didn't take the day off because there are problems at work, right?

Gosh, I told you. Everything's fine at work.

I took the day off because I was tired.

Right, aren't they announcing whether or not Yeong I can stay?

I guess she got the position.

Yes.

After all, she's staying in the company.

My poor daughter has to keep seeing her enemy at work.

My enemy? Yeong I is no match for me.

Honey, you're home early today.

Actually, you didn't come home yesterday, so this isn't "early."

Hi, Dad.

I heard they were doing some kind of internal investigation.

How did it go? It's nothing serious, right?

(Manager Yoon: I'm sorry.)

You're in charge of everything that goes on at the branch,

so a disciplinary hearing will be held soon.

Honey! Here.

I blended apples, carrots, and cabbage together.

Drink up.

You will go back to work, right?

Not today. I'm taking the day off.

What's happening today? How come no one's going to work?

Did you and Hae Mi plan this together?

Why didn't Hae Mi go to work today?

No idea. She said she was taking the day off...

because she was tired.

Then how about we go out for lunch? It's been too long.

Hae Mi! Let's go out for lunch.

I've got plans for lunch.

I need to get ready now.

Get some rest, Dad.

Well, it's her loss.

It's a date, honey. It's been too long...

A date, my foot.

Go out alone if you want to.

I'm going to bed.

You need to wash up first!

Honey, wash up before you sleep. Take a shower!

Honey.

Did something happen at work?

Did the internal investigation not go well?

Gosh, this is frustrating. Get up and tell me.

Hey, Kim Chang Yi!

Seo Hwa Kyung! Leave me alone!

When a man goes into his cave,

you should leave him alone and wait!

Shouldn't you know that by now?

(Vice President Cha Yoon Hee)

Jang Kyung Jun.

You're finally starting to show your claws.

You can't go in there!

I'm sorry, ma'am.

I told him that he couldn't meet you without an appointment.

It's okay. You can go.

Yes, ma'am.

Have you lost your mind?

This is my place of work.

There are many eyes watching. You can't barge in here like this.

Why? Are you worried that Mr. Jang would see us together?

Don't you worry.

I called him, and he said he was out having lunch.

That's why I came here.

All right. The problem involving Se Jun has been sorted out now.

Today, I'm here to seal the deal.

Don't you want to know the real reason I suddenly showed up...

in front of you?

I let...

Jang Yi Jae marry Cha Yoon Hee, who was my fiancée.

I'm here to collect my compensation in a lump sum.

So this is about money, after all.

I knew it.

You used to mooch off women. Of course, you haven't changed one bit.

But you let me marry him...

hoping that you could cash in using our marriage.

How dare you act like you're the victim here?

Yoon Hee, you'd better not provoke me.

You're only making me want to tell Lee Yeong I...

that it was your fault that her husband died.

I had decided to keep my lips sealed for Se Jun's sake.

(The Love in Your Eyes)

Ms. Lee, come to our place with Kyung Jun after work.

Let's have dinner together.

What? Yi Jae and High Heels invited Baby Chick over for dinner?

What are they up to?

I wanted to ask if there have been any updates.

I really want to find them.

So Yeong I is at his place now?

I'm sorry.

Don't ever forgive me.
