Just a second!

Why are you arresting him?

Seo-yeon, I'm fine.

Are you his family?

Are you his daughter?

No, we're not related at all.

Then we can't tell you any details.

What? Park Pil-hong was arrested?

Aren't you the one who reported him?

Why would I?

I wouldn't risk letting him talk to the police.

Anyway, Park Pil-hong will be punished for what he did,

so keep your promise.

As you agreed, give the deal back to Jae-hui.

As soon as possible.

It's not certain whether his arrest will benefit me or not.

I can't trust you enough to help.

-Well, I'm done talking. -Ms. Lee!

What on earth?

Who reported him to the police?

Yes.

Please investigate Park Pil-hong thoroughly.

And I'll be questioned as a testifier if necessary.

Yes. Okay.

Sir, give me a little more time.

I'll take care of it no matter what.

I said I can't.

Sir, please.

You know better than I do that things are tough for us.

And you didn't wire the money you said you would.

I'm sorry. Please give me some more time.

Stop apologizing and send me the money.

I'm sorry. This is the best we can do.

SUNHO BANK

MOM

Hello, Mom.

No, I'm not busy.

You must be worried about Jae-hui.

Yes. He left early this morning without having breakfast.

I see.

I guess he's busy picking up the pieces at work.

Don't worry. Jae-hui will take care of it.

Sure. I believe he will.

Hey, Chae-woon.

I wonder

if someone hijacked his contract on purpose.

Didn't he say anything like that?

I don't know.

He's looking into it too.

Then again, he isn't the kind of man who would get on someone's bad side.

If there's anything new, call me.

Okay, Mom.

Hey.

Are you guys going to work?

Yes, ma'am.

-Mom. -Yes?

Things didn't work out for Jae-hui, right?

I think so.

As I heard you talk on the phone, something came across my mind.

There is one person

who might hold a grudge against him.

Who is it?

Park Pil-hong is at the police station now.

He got arrested sooner than I expected.

Who do you think reported him?

Jae-hui?

Or Chae-woon?

The best scenario would be him rotting in jail.

But if that's not the case,

it could hurt us too.

Us?

I mean, me.

If the whole thing is revealed,

I'll be blamed for everything. That's how Chairwoman Lee set it up.

Why did you accept it knowing that?

To get on my grandma's good side?

Do you think that's what I'm up to?

Because I love you.

Because that's what you want.

Even if something happens, you will be fine.

I'll embrace everything.

Did you turn him in?

Yes. But it wasn't just me.

Jae-hui's contractors reported him to the police too.

By the way,

did the police show up when you were with him?

Yes.

You poor thing.

I'm sorry you had to see all that.

I'm okay.

You must be more frustrated than I am.

You had to do such a thing to Park Pil-hong.

No.

If I didn't, he would cause bigger trouble.

More importantly, he'd cause you harm.

I really wanted him to make a fresh start this time.

I stole a blueprint from Jae-hui?

I handed it over to his competitor? Why would I?

For money, of course.

You even bribed them to get the deal.

What? This is ridiculous.

Who reported me? Someone from the construction company?

Let me meet the person.

No, let me speak to

Chairwoman Lee Chun-seok of LX Group first.

All right. Since you keep mentioning the name,

we contacted her.

But she says she doesn't know you.

Really?

I knew she'd be like that. She didn't answer my calls.

Then let me speak to Woo Jae-hui. Okay?

Woo Jae-hui.

Chae-woon.

Jae-hui.

I didn't hear you come in.

What are you doing here?

Aren't you going to work?

I was about to leave.

The office was messy, so…

Once it's clean, it'll help you get yourself sorted

and give you good energy.

You don't have to do this.

Things will get messy again if people barge in here! What's the point?

Jae-hui.

Chae-woon, I'm sorry.

Just go. I'll clean this up.

Please leave.

Jae-hui.

We should help and rely on each other at times like this.

Why are you wavering so much?

I don't know what happened between you and your father,

but you should ask him for help…

You're saying the same thing.

That getting help from my dad will solve everything.

Whenever I try to borrow money from someone,

that's what I hear.

"Ask your loaded father for help and pay off your debt

to make things easy. Why take it the hard way?"

So are you thinking the same?

Don't know why I'm being like this?

Do you really not know why I'm struggling to survive?

You of all people should understand me.

Jae-hui.

I…

I'm not in my right mind.

Why am I doing this to you?

I'm sorry, Chae-woon.

I'm so sorry.

No, it's okay.

Because it's me.

You're doing this only to me.

I'm fine. Go ahead and yell at me.

Don't hold it in.

It will only suffocate you.

Go ahead and have it out on me.

I'm fine.

Jae-hui.

-Jae-hui. What are you going to do? -Hey.

How could you do this to me?

We've been through everything together like a family.

How could you stab me in the back?

Sir, it's not like that.

Chae-woon.

I'm really sorry. It all happened so quickly.

You punk.

What should I do now?

What do I do about my employees?

What should I do about my family?

I'm really sorry.

I'll be sure to get your factory back on track.

Again, I'm really sorry.

You've got your own problems. What can you do?

I know the situation you're in.

I'm well aware that you're in the mire.

Mother.

-Jae-hui. -Mom.

What…

What is all this?

Mother.

-Mother. -What is going on?

Did Jae-hui do something wrong?

Did he fail to pay you back?

How much is it?

I'll come back later.

Wait. I'll pay you back. How much is it?

How much is… Sir…

Jae-hui, what is…

Are you hurt? Who did this to you?

Who is it? What on earth happened?

-Min-jae, let's go. -Let go of me.

Let go!

It's your fault.

It's all your fault!

It all happened because you kicked him out.

Because of you, he left home and has struggled since college.

That's why he ended up like this.

That's why this happened.

That's why…

-Mom. -Min-jae.

-Are you okay? -Mother.

Why did you come here out of the blue?

It's on you.

This is your fault.

Jae-hui…

I knew it. No wonder why I had that weird dream.

You know how accurate my dreams are.

Especially the ones about you. They're never wrong.

Come on. They were wrong many times.

Listen. Do you know why dreams seem accurate?

It's because you make them so.

If nothing bad had happened,

you'd have just forgotten about that dream.

So what? Are you saying I did something wrong?

If you two want to fight, can you please leave?

I have a lot of things to take care of.

Jae-hui. What happened?

Does someone have a grudge against you?

How could a deal you were so sure suddenly overturn…

Was it Seo-a?

Seo-a?

Let's not jump to conclusions when there's no proof.

Don't you have to get back to your store?

Chae-woon, you should get back to work too.

Yes.

What about you?

I have something to discuss with Jae-hui.

Jae-hui, your panic attacks aren't back, are they?

Chae-woon, did he have any problems?

No. I got better long ago.

Mom, you can go now. Please leave.

You can go now.

Chae-woon, I'm sorry you had to see that.

It's fine, Mother.

You were shocked, weren't you?

Jae-hui went on his knees in front of someone…

I never let him kneel and beg even to me.

When I find out who did this to Jae-hui, I will make them pay dearly.

Seo-a? I won't let her off even if it's her.

I'll have her thrown in prison.

I will repay all your debts.

But in return, close down this company and work for me.

Don't you remember, Dad?

I said I would never work at your company.

I also said I wouldn't inherit any of your assets.

I didn't say you will.

Don't you see you're in no position to fight on

for the sake of your pride or ego?

Why wouldn't I know that? I know that very well.

I've been running about since the break of dawn,

begging on my knees enough to wear them down.

I feel so bad for those who lost money because of me.

I feel like my insides will explode and I'll drop dead.

That's why I'm offering to help you.

Why would you do this when you have a dad who can help?

I bet 100 won that in a few years,

you'll fail and come crawling back home.

What if

I didn't have such a dad?

What if…

I didn't have a rich dad?

What if I were Woo Jae-hui with no one to turn to?

Ever since I cut ties with you after I graduated from high school,

I've been living like that.

This isn't my first struggle.

I once slept on the street because I was penniless. I even had to starve for days.

Others may think I'm positive

smiling all the time, but you see,

my life has been so tough.

"I have no one to look out for me. I must deal with everything on my own."

That's how I've lived.

You fool.

You brat. What did I do so wrong?

Is it

because I didn't help your friend's dad?

Back then, I…

Let's forget it.

What's the use of making excuses now?

It's all my fault.

Fine.

You deal with it on your own.

Like I did when I was young,

get beaten up by your creditors

and live with the trauma for the rest of your life,

or get sued for fraud and go to prison.

Do what you will.

Then,

when I lost my memories

and stayed at Samgwang Villa,

why were you nice to me?

I thought we reconciled to a certain extent.

Was I mistaken?

That was because

it was James,

not you.

I see.

I wish

my memories didn't come back at all.

Eat well.

And take your medicine.

Dad…

I owe it to you, James. Thank you.

Your father must be happy to have a thoughtful son like you.

Hwak-se. I'll do the cleaning. Stop it.

No, Soon-jung. I want to do this today.

My gosh. You have to work later.

You should rest until then.

Did you call Man-jung?

No.

Give her a call.

I tried calling her many times,

but she refused to pick up saying she was busy seeing her patients.

But if you call her, I'm sure she'll love it.

Right.

Actually, no.

You should just go and bring her home today.

This is your homework, Hwak-se. Okay?

By the way, are you going out?

Yes. To see Ms. Kim.

Did you get what I said?

Bring Man-jung home tonight.

See you later.

Soon-jung.

Yes?

What is it?

Thank you for everything.

My gosh.

You don't have to thank me.

Just do the homework I gave you.

The three of us can have a chat later today.

Have a good day.

-Bye. -Stop cleaning and rest.

-See you. -Bye.

Thank you

for everything you did,

Soon-jung.

Thank you.

Jun-a, let's meet.

I need to talk to you about Seo-a.

Hiding from Mom while working at her company isn't my style.

Darn it. Let's just tell her.

I'll tell her.

Hello.

Meet Mr. Kim Dae-won.

He was our Design Team intern but recently became a regular employee.

I'm Kim Dae-won. I'll be working with you from now on.

I hope we get along.

Nice to meet you. It's a pleasure.

Wait. My sister didn't get the job?

What do you mean?

This is bad.

My sister didn't get the permanent job.

Wait.

You didn't know that Bit-chae-woon didn't get the job?

But you're sisters.

No one in my family knows.

My sister must've been devastated.

That's not nice of her. She should've told her family.

She probably didn't want to upset us.

That's how considerate she is.

Right, she is. Bit-chae-woon did nothing wrong.

Bit-chae-woon, you, and your family

seem to be so considerate.

I guess I am.

Exactly.

God, that woman Ms. Kim… I can never like her.

That woman?

What about her?

Think about it.

My sister was probably more competent.

I bet Ms. Kim didn't choose her on purpose to show everyone that she was fair.

Especially with the rumor of them being related.

Come on, a CEO of a big company wouldn't do that.

I doubt it.

Are you kidding me?

She even denied that Chae-woon was her daughter.

All right, so don't be angry.

Did that actually happen though?

Then again, you don't know her.

Of course, I don't.

-I should go and see her. -Who? Ms. Kim?

What business do I have with her? It's someone else.

I have an errand to run.

Where exactly?

Let me just go somewhere.

You always go somewhere!

Why is it so hot in here?

But what was that all of a sudden?

It seemed like he was hiding from someone.

Why on earth is it so hot in here?

CEO KIM JUNG-WON

Ms. Kim, your son is here.

-Jun-a! -Mom, it's me.

Jun-a.

Goodness, my son.

This is unexpected. I didn't think you'd respond like this to my text.

I've been a bad son to you, so…

You realized that?

I see you've matured.

-Let's sit. -Sure.

How's your clothing store? Is it doing well?

Sure.

So Mom, the thing is…

Jun-a.

Seo-a has been upsetting me so much these days

which is why I texted you.

I see. Right, Seo-a.

She's been getting close to a guy.

A guy? Who?

Other than Jae-hui?

In a serious matter?

That's something I can't tell.

It could be because she got rejected by Jae-hui,

or maybe she's being serious.

I really can't tell.

Gosh.

Could it be something else?

Maybe he's after our family's money.

You know how Seo-a is. She looks cold and cranky,

but she gets carried away with people

who are nice to her or cater to her every whim.

I know. That's why I'm worried.

Come in.

I came for your signature on behalf of Director Jang.

-Where's Ms. Jang? -In a meeting.

We need to move quickly with the project,

so I brought it for you to review.

Leave it with me.

Yes, ma'am.

Hello.

Did Seo-a get a new assistant?

Yes, she hired one more.

This is Seo-a's older brother.

It's a pleasure to meet you. I'm Hwang Na-ro.

Hello. I'm Jang Jun-a. It's nice to meet you.

Wait.

Mom, are you sure Seo-a hired him?

This seems weird.

She's too suspicious to hire her own people.

I don't mean you're suspicious or anything.

Jun-a, what brings you by?

I heard you were in a meeting.

It just ended.

Na-ro, I see you brought it to her. Thanks.

What? Do you call him by his name?

I'll get going then.

Since you're here, I'll introduce him to you.

There's no need. Mom told me. He's your new assistant.

Right, and there's more.

He's the man I'm dating.

What? Did you just lock arms with him?

Mom, is he the person you just mentioned?

Is this him?

Since we're all here, why don't we have dinner together?

We'll invite the chairwoman too.

Seo-a.

What are you talking about?

Dinner with the chairwoman?

I'll choke on food. Besides, I'm busy.

Jang Jun-a?

That's one unpleasant gaze he has.

Hey, Mr. Sideburns.

-Me? -Yes.

You said my name wrong. It's Hwang Na-ro.

What is it again? Hwa Na-roo?

I was just kidding.

I'm bad with names, you see.

I heard from Ms. Kim that you lived at Samgwang Villa.

Yes.

I guess our fates are somewhat entwined then.

You know Jae-hui, right? Woo Jae-hui. He's my best friend.

You must be friends with him since you lived there.

Not really.

Besides, I don't live there anymore.

Really?

You must be the one who lived in the basement, Mr. Sideburn.

I slept there yesterday, you see.

Is he that dumb?

-What did you just say? -Nothing.

My name is Hwang Na-ro, not Mr. Sideburn.

Gosh, I keep slipping up.

I'm that bad with names.

What was your name again?

Mr. Sideburn?

Gosh, I'm sorry.

It's a joke.

Are you really dating Seo-a?

Yes.

Really? You're actually together?

Gosh, that gaze. You must really be together.

You must be a patient man.

I mean, Seo-a has quite the temper. Do you cater to her every whim then?

You must truly love. Right?

Do you know

Woo Jae-hui is currently in a bad place?

No, I don't. What's up with him?

You don't? You must not be his best friend.

I have a meeting to get to, so…

Sure, go ahead.

Why does he keep being informal with me?

Unbelievable.

I should look into him. He's suspicious.

By the way, what's up with Jae-hui?

Wait.

I didn't get to tell Mom the truth, again.

How do I get back in there? I missed the right time.

Come back in two days. Get a lot of rest and fluids.

-Thank you. -You're welcome.

CHATS

What's with all the texts?

Meanwhile, Hwak-se hasn't even bothered to call.

Is he angry with me?

Send in my next patient, please.

Hwak-se, what's going on?

Hello, doctor. I'm here for your medical advice.

What seems to be bothering you?

Are you sick in any way?

In every way.

It was only my throat before,

but now I'm hurting everywhere.

As if I've fallen victim to a nasty disease.

A kind of disease

that makes me trouble a certain person.

Has that person been deeply troubled?

I think so.

Whatever the issue is, it doesn't lie with you.

It's the other person's fault.

She must be the worst.

I made you worried sick last night, didn't I?

After making such a big scene,

I took off,

leaving you behind.

I'm really sorry.

No, don't be. Why would you apologize?

Let me see your hand. I saw you got something on it.

That's my treatment. Aren't you feeling all better now?

Yes, I've been cured. You're the best, doctor.

That's just who I am.

I bet my sister told you to bring me home.

Since you came to get me, I should let you drag me home.

I honestly wasn't going to.

We should go home.

Wasn't it cold sleeping here last night?

My face almost froze off.

It was drafty.

So you should hug me warmly when I get home later.

You should get going now. I have patients to see.

Go make some money.

All right.

Bye.

-Doctor. -Yes?

-Just a second. -What?

Could you perhaps give me a hug?

Gosh, we really should be doing that at my workplace.

You must need a special prescription.

All right.

This is nice.

I know.

We'll have a talk with Soon-jung tonight.

I love you.

I'll get going.

-Bye. -See you.

Now get going.

-Bye. -Bye!

Excuse me.

You can't stay here like this.

Young man? Excuse me.

Just leave me alone!

Soon-jung.

Soon-jung, you saved my life.

But I've been a nuisance to you

instead of returning the kindness.

Mom!

Hae-deun.

Goodness. You look amazing.

You're here to see Ms. Kim?

Yes, but I arrived early, so I thought I'd come and see you.

Has the work been fun?

Yes, it's been a blast.

Right. Mom, I just heard it.

It seems Chae-woon didn't get the permanent job.

Really?

She must've been upset.

This is all because of Ms. Kim.

I asked to see you today

because I wondered

if the chairwoman

could be behind Mr. Woo's misfortune.

If that's the case,

it means he was caught in the middle of our mess.

For now, it appears to be

Park Pil-hong.

Mr. Park?

How would he even know Mr. Woo?

Are you saying that he's been

lurking around Chae-woon this whole time?

I think so.

He's being questioned by the police as we speak.

I reported him, you see.

You did?

Whether he'll be punished or not is still unknown,

but he's being investigated.

Then,

does my Chae-woon know about this?

Yes, she does.

The grown-ups are bringing her too much pain.

It's true

that Mr. Park shook up your whole life,

so I realize how hard it was to make this decision

just for the sake of Chae-woon.

Na-ro!

Have you been well?

Hae-deun, what brings you by?

Do you work here?

Yes, as part of the online task force. I started a few days ago.

You look completely different in this nice suit.

Amazing, I say.

Is everyone doing well?

Not really. Things have been hectic.

How could you leave without saying goodbye?

We were all flustered and sad when we found out.

I'm sorry.

Anyway, the person who felt the saddest about it is here to see you.

Mother.

Hey, Na-ro.

Mother, have you been well?

Gosh.

Do you know how upset I was

when you moved out leaving a single letter?

I'm sorry.

This…

I wasn't going to wear it because of what you did,

but it was too pretty not to.

Thank you so much.

There's no need to thank me. It looks great on you.

Right? Isn't it beautiful?

Yes.

Na-ro!

Hello, Ms. Lee.

Are you here to meet my mom?

Yes, Seo-a.

To talk about Mr. Woo.

You know things didn't work out for him, right?

Yes. Mom told me.

But why are you talking to Na-ro?

Because he moved out of Samgwang Villa suddenly?

Please don't worry. He's doing fine.

I'll see you around then.

Well, Na-ro.

Are you and Seo-a…

Yes.

We're dating.

Why did you not take my calls sooner?

I'm sorry. I was busy.

What took you so long? I waited so much for you.

Detective, Mr. Woo will tell you everything.

He will tell you that I'm innocent.

So are you saying he didn't steal the blueprints from your office?

No.

We didn't have our blueprints stolen.

See? Why did you not believe me?

Stay quiet.

Then did you know that he approached you and bribed the company

to hijack your contract?

About that…

Mr. Woo, it wasn't me.

I found out when I went there to run an errand for Chairwoman Lee.

That your company was going to sign the contract.

That old hag framed me to send me to jail.

Gosh, Mr. Park Pil-hong.

I'm not sure about that.

whether he did such a thing for money or not.

No, Mr. Woo.

No matter how desperate I was for money,

I'd never ruin your business. You're dating Seo-yeon.

That's not true. It wasn't me.

Why didn't you tell me? Why?

Mr. Woo, you're the biggest victim here.

If you sue him, we can request an arrest warrant.

According to your business partner, Yoo Do-hyun,

he worked at your company with a fake identity.

If it's proven that he did it

to hijack your contract,

he can be charged for fraud as well.

Mr. Woo, you know why I worked there as Lee Dong-chul.

To see Seo-yeon.

That was the only reason.

I didn't do anything wrong.

Help me. Please save me.

Seriously, I didn't do anything.

Can I think about it until tomorrow?

Sure.

Mr. Woo, I'm Seo-yeon's dad.

Don't forget I'm Seo-yeon's dad, okay?

Chae-woon's dad?

Do you really think you deserve to be her dad?

Chae-woon has suffered so much because of you.

She's in dreadful pain. You know that?

To think of her,

I want to put you in jail right away.

Do you understand?

Mr. Woo.

Chae-woon.

Mom.

Where's Mr. Woo?

I guess he's still busy with work.

Too bad.

Well…

Chae-woon.

The thing is…

I heard the whole thing from Ms. Kim.

That Park Pil-hong

is at the police station.

So you heard it.

Yes.

Mom.

There, there.

I know how you feel.

I know how you're feeling.

Chae-woon.

Hey, Ra-hun.

You must've been disappointed.

You had high hopes for the food truck.

No.

It's you who was upset.

But about the man…

Is he your birth father?

Yes.

I see.

He seemed like a nice guy though.

Ra-hun.

If you found out that your birth father

was a man like him, how would you feel?

I don't know.

I'd ask why he was up to such a thing.

To see if he was in need.

If that was the case, I could help him.

With what money would you help him?

I've saved some money to start a food truck.

You've worked really hard to save the money.

Why would you give the money to a fraud father?

If my money

can stop him from doing such things.

If it can stop him from doing such things.

I don't know. Will that stop him?

Maybe things just happened that way.

I bet he wasn't like that before.

You're a decent and upright person.

Your genes came from him.

Do you think I'm decent and upright?

Sure.

Then I'm probably a mutation.

Or he is.

Let me lie next to you.

Anyway,

I wish I could meet

my birth father.

It might be better not to see him.

Still…

What are you doing here?

Jung-hoo.

Please help Jae-hui.

Actually, I…

I talked to Jae-hui about it, but he refused my help.

You don't have to listen to him.

He would never swallow his pride before you.

He's just like you.

Please help Jae-hui.

He might end up in big trouble!

He refuses to take even a dollar from me. What can I do?

Jung-hoo.

Why don't you help him, then?

Fine.

I'll sell my apartment I'm leasing out

and help Jae-hui with it.

You really don't care about your son.

Money is your priority.

Even if Jae-hui loses everything and drowns in debt,

all you care about is money.

You know me so well, Ms. Jung.

Yes. Money does come before my son.

This is what you're like, and I came here hoping to reach out.

Good night.

Wait…

Min-jae

still thinks I'm a heartless, stingy man.

Do-hyun.

I think I can get the money to pay back the loan shark.

-I met my friend earlier today and he-- -I…

I paid it off.

You did?

How?

Hey. How?

I heard you helped Do-hyun with the private loan.

I told you earlier that I'd deal with it.

-I didn't ask… -Can't I do something for my son?

Because

I've lived as a heartless, stingy dad my whole life,

must I go on living like that?

Can't I…

Can't you give me a chance to change?

I didn't pay it off for free.

You can pay me back over time.

I ran around all day to borrow money.

And I found someone to lend me the money.

Do you mean

you don't want to owe me a single won?

That you don't want to give me a chance to do anything for my son?

Even if you're desperately in need, you don't want my help?

I guess that's it.

What I owe you,

I'll work hard to pay back.

Thank you.

You can't drink plain soju. You have a weak stomach.

Don't mind me.

Darn it.

Hey, you brat.

What am I to drink if you finish the bottle?

Good night, Dad.

What? Hey, you.

Buy me another bottle of soju.

Welcome, Ms. Jung.

Sorry to visit late at night.

Jae-hui's not back yet, is he?

No. Are you here because you're worried about him?

Hello, Mother.

Bit-chae-woon.

Bit-chae-woon.

Mr. Yoo. Is Jae-hui in?

Yes.

Did he go to the police station today?

I'm furious about that right now.

He could just sue Park Pil-hong for fraud,

but he's on the phone trying to clear his name.

To clear his name?

Hello, sir.

Mr. Park didn't sabotage the deal on purpose.

He got involved without knowing what was happening.

Yes. I called to ask you not to sue Park Pil-hong.

Yes, I hate him for doing that too.

But he has a good heart.

I think he was framed.

Please be understanding.

Yes, sir.

I'm sorry. Goodbye.

Moong.

What are you doing?

Are you seriously trying to clear his name?

I was at the police station earlier, and Mr. Park got framed too.

I think it's the chairwoman and Na-ro's doing, but there's no proof.

Why do you care whether he's framed or not?

Look what he did to you. He used an alias and approached us.

Why would you forgive him?

Then what? Let him go down?

If he's arrested this time, there'll be an extra sentence.

We can't let him go back to prison.

Why can't we?

It's only right he should go to prison for what he did.

He's your dad. We can't let it happen to him.

He's not my dad.

I don't have such a dad!

It's not that he actually did something wrong.

He was framed too. Will you just stand by?

He won't show any remorse even if you help him.

That man won't change.

He'll only cause more trouble and give you a hard time.

Why do you think so? We can stop him.

He's a poor man in a sense.

If you keep being like this, I can't be with you.

How can I possibly face you? What right would I have to love you?

Having to consider his feelings in this situation.

Having to be so strong and responsible…

I feel too bad

to stay with you.

Chae-woon.

Then shall we

take some time apart?

Considering our situation, we can't get married right away.

For a while, I must focus on sorting this out.

I found a job at a construction site in Incheon.

I'll be there for a while.

Are you saying

you'll leave home?

For now,

I think I should work like crazy and clear my head.

When do you leave?

Tomorrow.

Tomorrow?

How could you decide without talking to me…

Why am I saying this?

I have no right to.

Excuse me.

Hello, sir?

I'm sorry. I asked everyone I know today.

Could you extend my loan a bit?

I know. I'm sorry.

Yes.

I start work at a site nearby your place tomorrow.

I'll visit you.

Yes. I'm sorry, sir. Bye.

MOONG

NEW TEXT MESSAGE

Your mother's in your room.

I think you should put her at ease.

Jae-hui.

What are you doing here?

Go home. I'll call you a taxi.

What happened?

I gathered the money I saved up.

So for now…

Look.

It's been handled, Mom.

What?

The money…

Dad lent it to me.

Your father?

But earlier…

Gosh, I didn't know.

I was able to push back the other deadlines.

Everything was handled, so don't worry.

Is this true?

You'd better not be lying to ease my worries.

Why don't you check for yourself?

Let's go.

It's okay. I can go alone.

Let's go, Ms. Jung.

I'm sorry for the intrusion.

It's okay.

Please hang in there and don't skip your meals.

Sure thing.

Chae-woon, I'll get going.

Good night, ma'am.

Good night.

Soon-jung.

Man-jung!

Auntie.

Goodness, Man-jung.

I'm sorry.

-No, it's all right. -I'm sorry.

Let's head inside.

-It's cold. -Okay.

I'm home!

What on earth?

Wait, he wasn't at the restaurant either.

Hold on.

Why are the drawers empty?

What on earth?

Hold on.

Is he gone? Did Hwak-se go somewhere?

Wait.

-Bye. -Bye!

So that was him saying goodbye for good.

Man-jung, what's wrong?

-Is Hwak-se not home yet? -What?

-Soon-jung. -What is it?

I think Hwak-se left.

What?

He must've gone somewhere.

He took all his things.

But why?

I have no idea.

He must be gone.

My gosh.

Man-jung…

Man-jung.

Hwak-se will be back.

Don't worry. He'll be back.

He'll be back for sure.

Mr. Woo, did you take your mom home safely?

Yes, why are you still up?

I was about to go to bed.

I'm so sorry for troubling you.

Gosh, don't be.

Goodness.

It was a hard day, wasn't it?

Stay strong and hang in there.

I'm sure it'll all pass.

Yes, Mother.

-I'll head upstairs then. -Sure.

-Good night. -Good night.

Hwak-se, where are you?

Please answer your phone.

Bit-chae-woon,

I love you.

I know you're watching me right now.

I know, but…

But…

The money was wired in Hwang Na-ro's name? So Chairwoman Lee used him as a front.

Now you want my help?

Go back to the States while I ask nicely.

A subsidiary company of LX Group stole the deal?

Then was Seo-a really behind it all?

What's the meaning of this?

It means that I love you.

It must be upsetting to be away from Jae-hui.

I…

Jae-hui, are you well?

I've been very busy working.

I've been very, very busy.

Enough to have no time to think about you.

But despite keeping myself busy like this…

I miss you each moment.

-I miss you. -I miss you.
