(Episode 85)

Are you feeling all right?

Well, I'm...

Never mind. We can talk about it later.

Something came up in our family.

Other than what happened to us? What else happened?

You see, Hae Mi... My gosh. How could she do that to herself?

She overdosed on pills. Can you believe it?

She's in the hospital now.

What?

Here you go, Mom.

Thank you.

Mom. Eun Ho.

I just heard shocking news.

What is it?

Yeong I... I mean, her family.

Why? Did something happen to Yeong I?

No, not to Yeong I, but to Ms. Kim Hae Mi.

Oh, I see.

Kim Hae Mi? You mean, Yeong I's cousin-in-law?

Yes, her. Apparently, she overdosed and collapsed.

She's in the hospital now.

What?

What kind of medicine and how much of it did she take?

I didn't hear any details.

But I'm pretty sure she got mad because she could do nothing...

to break Yeong I and Mr. Jang up and put on an act.

So what is Yeong I doing now?

I heard she went to the hospital with her father-in-law.

Her parents will lash out at Yeong I and make a scene again.

I know, right?

I hope she'll be okay and wake up soon.

Hae Mi.

My poor daughter.

Please open your eyes, my baby.

Honey.

Get some rest at the lounge.

You might collapse too at this rate.

Hey, you're here.

Where have you been?

What are you going to do about Hae Mi, you jerk?

She tried to end her life because of you.

Then how could you be so selfish?

You ruined my daughter.

What are you going to do now? Answer me.

Honey, let go of him and talk it out.

Is Hae Mi...

still unconscious?

The doctor said she will wake up, but...

Will she even be able to stay sane when she wakes up?

When she left a suicide note?

She left a suicide note?

Yes, she left a suicide note.

Do you know how I felt when I read my own child's suicide note?

Thinking of the pain she felt while writing each of those words...

makes me feel like my heart is torn into a million pieces!

Honey, calm down.

- Hey. - Chang Il.

Chang Yi.

How dare you come here?

Hwa Kyung, please.

Hwa Kyung, calm down.

They're here because they're worried about Hae Mi.

Ms. Seo, if you want to be angry at someone,

please let it be me.

Must you side with her in this situation?

My daughter is bedridden because of her!

Hwa Kyung, as Chang Yi said,

Yeong I heard the news...

and came here because she was worried.

How serious is Hae Mi's condition?

When will she wake up?

The doctor said it was hard to tell...

and that it might take a few days.

Anyway, it seems that Hae Mi was so much hurt emotionally.

Watching her like this,

I only resent your family, to be honest.

Chang Yi.

I'm not going to lie to you.

I almost...

lost my child, Chang Il.

Why are you even surprised, Chang Il?

You, Eun Sook, and even Mother.

Your family surprised me.

How can you care more about your in-law than your blood?

Chang Yi.

My family...

decided to let Yeong I go out with him.

I kind of knew it.

I'm sure Hae Mi found out about it and felt hopeless...

I'm sorry, Uncle Chang Yi. It happened because of me.

Mom and Dad.

I'm sorry.

I...

don't think...

I can go on with my life without Kyung Jun by my side.

He was my only hope...

and my only dream, and Yeong I took him away from me.

All I can feel is resentment toward her.

I hope...

you two will stay happy when I'm gone.

Please forgive me for breaking your hearts like this.

Hey.

Oh, my. Hae Mi.

My baby, are you all right?

Oh, Mom.

Yes, it's me. Mommy is here.

Thank goodness. My daughter finally woke up.

I'll go and bring Dad shortly.

Hae Mi.

Kyung Jun?

Am I dead?

Of course not!

You're in the hospital.

Why did you do such a foolish thing?

I'm sorry, Kyung Jun.

You should've stayed strong.

If you hated me,

you should've moved on like you didn't even care about me.

Kyung Jun, can you...

Can you help me sit up?

All right.

Slowly.

- Kyung Jun. - Hae Mi.

My dear daughter, are you okay?

Can you recognize me?

What's wrong, Hae Mi? What is it?

Hae Mi.

Why are you here?

Get out right now! Get out of my sight!

Please leave, Yeong I.

Right. Let's leave, Yeong I.

Now that we know Hae Mi is okay,

we'll get going.

Try to calm down, Hae Mi.

If you keep getting upset like this, you'll only suffer more.

- Mom, you and Dad should go. - What?

Kyung Jun, stay by my side, okay?

Don't go anywhere and stay by my side, okay?

Hey.

I'm back.

We're back, Mom.

Did you see her?

Did Hae Mi wake up?

Yes, she woke up before we left the hospital.

I heard it could've taken a few days.

I'm relieved she woke up.

Goodness.

What a relief.

All that's left for her to do is recovering well.

Didn't Hwa Kyung say anything to you, Yeong I?

Knowing her, I'm pretty sure she lashed out.

She didn't say anything.

Yeong I, you look so weary too.

Go upstairs and rest. You should go to work tomorrow.

Yes, Grandmother.

Go on.

Good night.

Honey.

What did Chang Yi say?

He said he resented us.

What?

Of course, his child comes first.

He's a father of a child, you know.

Right. Of course.

How's Hae Mi doing?

Did she wake up?

Yes.

That's a relief.

I must say, she's so scary.

You know what I mean.

Who would do that just because she got dumped?

That's not love. She did that to see you suffer.

Think about me. Even though Eun Ho dumped me,

I'm still working with him with no problems.

Also, I heard that too.

When he told you that he had feelings for you.

Why didn't you tell me that?

What's the point?

It wouldn't have changed the fact that he liked you.

But I don't hate you.

This is normal, and Hae Mi is crazy.

I'm getting goosebumps again.

Hey, what's that?

Did he propose to you?

Well... Yes.

At a restaurant before we went to the hospital.

My gosh. Hae Mi totally ruined your day.

You can't get excited or brag about it.

Come here, Yeong I.

Congratulations. I'm so happy for you.

Thank you, Do Young.

You should go now. It's getting late.

He can't leave.

What if she wakes up...

and faint again while asking for him?

I'll wait until she seems fine...

and then leave.

You're worried about me, aren't you?

I'm okay, Kyung Jun. I'll see you at work tomorrow.

(I'm okay, Kyung Jun. I'll see you at work tomorrow.)

I don't know what to say.

I'm sorry, Yeong I.

See you tomorrow.

What is it that you said I'd regret if I didn't hear about?

Just forget it if you're going to beat around the bush.

Time is money for me.

Se Jun...

found out about everything.

What do you mean? What did he find out?

That he...

is not President Jang Yi Jae's son,

and that he's...

mine.

What?

Hello.

Hi, Yeong I.

What's going on in our team lately?

They're taking turns taking time off work.

Ms. Kim and Managing Director Jang took the day off.

Do you happen to know what's going on with them?

No, I don't.

Welcome home, Kyung Jun.

You must be tired.

Yes.

I heard from Ms. An.

Is Hae Mi all right now?

She keeps falling asleep and waking up.

I'll change my clothes and go back to the hospital.

I understand that you must feel sorry for Hae Mi.

But you should maintain the right distance from her.

I understand, Grandpa.

Se Jun is in his room, right?

I think he is.

Why are you looking for him?

I might have to take a few more days off,

so I'm going to ask him to fill me in.

There are a few things I need him to take care of in my place.

Right. You two should help each other out.

Se Jun.

What was that?

Nothing.

(DNA Test Results)

This is a DNA test report.

Why did Se Jun take a DNA test?

"This serves as evidence that..."

"Jang Yi Jae and Jang Se Jun..."

(Jang Yi Jae and Jang Se Jun are not biologically related.)

"are not biologically related."

Se Jun is not Dad's biological son?

This can't be true.

Se Jun, I won't just forget about all the things you've done for me.

I will make sure to repay you.

So please don't carry the burden alone and discuss it with me. Okay?

Okay. I'll do that.

Se Jun.

Is this why you looked sad that day?

When did you start suspecting this?

Kyung Jun, you will have breakfast, right?

Oh, you were in that room.

Se Jun just called.

He said he went out early this morning.

Where did he say he was going?

He didn't say where he was going.

I have no idea.

Oh, I see.

You don't have to make me breakfast.

I'll take a shower and go back to the hospital.

Mom.

Yes? Hae Mi, you keep feeling sleepy, right?

It's probably because of the medicine you took.

But you should eat something.

If you keep sleeping without eating anything,

you'll feel tired despite the IV injection.

Where is he?

You mean, Kyung Jun?

He went home to change his clothes.

He'll be back shortly, so don't worry.

Are you sure he went home?

Maybe he went to see Yeong I.

No. I'm sure he went to see her.

I have to see them with my own eyes.

Stop it. You can't go anywhere in this condition.

What if Yeong I called him out?

Kyung Jun is not good at saying no.

I bet that wench nagged him not to be with me.

- Hae Mi, please. - Mom.

Hae Mi, what is wrong with you?

- I'll be back shortly, Mom. - No.

- Hae Mi, stop it. Honey! - Mom.

- Stop it. - Let go of me.

Hae Mi, please. Why are you being like this?

What are you doing right now?

You need to rest. Don't you know that?

Pull yourself together, Hae Mi.

Mom.

Dad.

I feel so uneasy.

I feel like this is all a dream...

and will disappear.

But Kyung Jun will stay by my side...

at least out of pity, right?

Hae Mi.

I will break Kyung Jun's legs if I have to...

to make him stay with you.

So put your worries to rest.

I can do anything for you.

I promise you.

Make sure to do so, Mom, okay?

Yes.

Honey, you can go to work now. I'll stay with her.

A branch manager shouldn't stay out of his office for too long.

Sorry?

Work doesn't matter when my child is bedridden.

I can take a day off.

No, honey.

You took a day off a few days ago after pulling an all-nighter.

What are you talking about?

The bank can't function properly without the branch manager.

Go on now.

Lie down.

Then I'll get going now.

Call me if anything happens.

I'll do that.

Yes, Mom.

Is Hae Mi all right?

I'm so worried about her,

but I'm afraid I might only bother you if I visit her.

Mom, I'll go to your restaurant now.

Yes. See you later.

So I don't think I can see you today.

I'm sorry, Yeong I.

Why are you apologizing? Don't worry about me.

I'll call you again later.

Yes. Bye.

(Se Jun)

Yeong I.

Hello, Director Jang. Are you back at work?

No. I came to see my father.

I stopped by to organize my office.

Did Kyung Jun propose to you yesterday?

You two went through a lot.

Thinking that you'll get married, I'm choked with emotion.

Thank you for rooting for us.

By the way, why do you have to organize your office?

I'll take a leave of absence.

A leave of absence?

Don't be so surprised.

I'm just taking time off for personal reasons.

It's been nice to take time off work.

I overslept and went out for fun.

So I'll enjoy myself for a few more months.

I think I'll finish cleaning out my office in the evening.

How about we have dinner with everyone on our team?

Well, actually...

Ms. Kim and Kyung Jun... No, I mean...

Ms. Kim and Managing Director Jang took the day off.

They took the day off?

I didn't know that as I couldn't see him this morning.

Do you know the reason?

Ms. Kim...

collapsed last night...

because she overdosed on pills.

She overdosed on pills?

Are we at a Buddhist temple or what? It's too quiet in here.

Ms. Im, since we're feeling blue,

how about the three of us have chicken together? What do you say?

I'm not feeling blue.

It's good to be in a quiet office. It helps me focus.

Did Mr. Jang Kyung Jun call you?

Well... Yes.

What is he doing on his day off?

Ms. Kim happened to take a day off on the same day.

There's no way they're together...

Se Hee.

Is that supposed to be a joke? That's a bad joke.

I agree. That's a bad joke, Mr. Heo.

Now that you're employed full-time, you even criticize me.

I'm so sad.

Gosh. Since I'm sad...

I'll go to the cafeteria.

Let's go.

I'll skip lunch today.

Oh, right. Ms. Im.

About the food ingredients we have left in the kitchen.

Would it be okay if I use those?

Go ahead. We'll have to throw it out if we don't use it up today.

Did you come up with a good idea already?

An idea?

I mean, Managing Director Jang said our project for the first quarter...

will be launching a new lunchbox product.

He suggested we should use your proposal that fell through...

because of DG Distribution.

I'm wondering if you plan to work alone on that project.

If you have a good idea, let us join you.

I won't work alone to succeed faster than you.

I promise I'll let you join me. But...

today, I need it for a personal reason.

I told him not to tell anyone.

But you know how rigidly honest Se Jun is.

He's the type...

that would even run into a fire with a time bomb in his arms.

What in the world made him suspect the truth of his birth?

(Vice President Cha Yoon Hee)

What is it?

President Jang is asking for you.

Honey, when did you come back?

I just came back.

Se Jun was waiting for me when I got back. Have a seat.

Se Jun, you're taking time off.

Why do you keep coming here instead of resting?

I have something to tell you two.

I'll take a leave of absence.

It could be months or years. I haven't decided yet.

Since I worked so hard, I think I'm in a slump now.

That's nonsense. You can't take time off now.

No. Just take a few more days off and return to work.

Honey.

Why would you blindly oppose his plan...

without trying to understand him?

He didn't tell us anything until now,

but you know how hard he worked to fill Kyung Jun's absence.

But that's his duty.

It's like his fate as a son of this family.

A son of this family?

You're so brazen.

Anyway, you can't do that.

The trends in the industry change so quickly.

You must always know what consumers want...

and what we can offer them.

Once you're left behind, it's over. That's how this industry works.

But you want to take an indefinite leave of absence?

Aren't you only worried that I might lose my position?

- What did you just say? - Enough, Se Jun.

How could you say such a thing?

Don't be prickly toward your mom.

Even if she's worried about your position in this company,

it's natural for her to say that as your parent.

If you really want to do that,

I'll let you take six months off for now.

What? Honey.

Thank you.

Dad.

I'm sure Kyung Jun can fill his absence.

That's why I'm against the idea.

Kyung Jun will take Se Jun's place.

Is there any place you want to go to?

Or something you want to learn?

Don't just waste six months.

You can go on a trip to European countries...

or study abroad.

I'll support you financially.

You've done enough for me until now.

And I'm very grateful to you for that.

From now on, I'll try to do everything on my own.

Whatever I may do.

You sound like you're leaving us to be independent.

Silly you.

I'm your father. You don't have to thank me for looking after you.

Se Jun, if you're upset about Kyung Jun...

becoming the managing director before you do,

don't be upset.

I'll help you get the position you deserve when the time comes.

You've been quick at figures since you were little.

The management support department...

with the accounting and finance team would suit you.

And since you're good at analyzing trends,

the marketing team would suit you well too.

So you don't have to be anxious.

I don't know...

if I deserve that...

Se Jun.

Before you leave... The importation of beverage products...

you've been working with a Japanese company...

Actually, I'm working on that project right now.

Can you come to my office to give me a brief about it?

Come on, honey.

Must you talk about work while we're having a moment?

Se Jun, this is what your mom is like.

All she cares about is work.

She must not understand why you want to take time off work.

Gosh.

Dad, I'll get going now.

Let's go, Mom.

What are you doing?

Are you trying to get back at me?

Why would I get back at you?

Do you feel guilty about something?

Se Jun, quit joking around.

Won Sub came by this morning.

Oh, I see. Then you must've heard everything.

Did you tell your dad? You didn't, right?

Your dad didn't seem to know when we talked to him.

Whom did you tell? Your grandfather?

Don't tell me you told your brother.

How can you worry about that when things got this messy?

I just found out that I'm not my father's biological son.

Do you not care how I feel?

How you feel? That's not important at all.

What's important for us now is...

to make sure no one in our family will find out about that.

Only then can you survive. Can't you see that?

It's you, not me...

who wants to keep living as a part of this family.

You're so brazen.

You've been judging and mistreating other people...

based on their social status, but that wasn't enough.

How can you even think of making me the chairman of this company...

when I'm not even Dad's biological son?

Pull yourself together!

I bent over backward for the family for the past 30 years...

to make you Jang Yi Jae's son.

Whatever others may say,

you're Jang Se Jun, the second son of this family.

You keep talking about sincerity and having a clear conscience.

That's a load of crock.

No one would praise you for that.

You would only get kicked out without a penny.

So you just make sure to keep your lips sealed.

That's the only way to save both of us.

Do you understand?

(The Love in Your Eyes)

I'm afraid of losing anyone I know.

So never say such a thing again.

I thought things would finally work out for Kyung Jun and Baby Chick.

But I have a feeling that a storm is coming.

I wonder whose heart it might scar.

I hope it will pass without hurting anybody.
