What's wrong, Ji Young?

Are you upset?

Take Joon Seo with you.

What about today's show?

I feel like I'm going to mess up the show.

My goodness. I can't believe we bumped into her today.

Okay, if you say so.

Joon Seo.

I think I'll have to be on the show by myself.

I've got some problems to solve.

Are you okay, Mom?

Your face looks pale.

I always get nervous before the shoot.

Who was that lady we saw earlier?

What?

You don't need to know who she is, Joon Seo.

Give me a hug.

I'm sorry, Joon Seo.

I'll give you a tour around the broadcasting station next time.

I'm okay.

You don't feel well, do you?

That's how I feel every time I see Woo Na Kyung...

at the broadcasting station.

Does she come here often?

She's one of the panels for the show.

For what show?

Seo Ji Young is the new host for our show?

The previous host is quitting.

The upper management put Seo Ji Young on our show.

There are plenty of other hosts to choose from.

Why does it have to be Seo Ji Young? She's going to ruin our show.

The manager is a big fan...

of Seo Ji Young.

I don't believe this.

I like her too.

I want to work with...

Seo Ji Young. I'm a big fan of hers.

Fine, you leave me no choice.

- I guess I'll have to quit. - What?

This show is going to be ruined.

I might as well just leave before it does.

Wait.

I thought...

you were going to let Seo Ji Young be the host of the new show.

I know, but the new show is going to start next spring.

You should consider this opportunity...

as a warm-up before that.

I'll think over it.

What's there to think about?

Don't do it.

There will be other people who will try to hire you...

when the word is out that you are back.

I heard you're going to be the host of my show?

Do it.

I'm going to quit.

The show is all you have right now.

It's an opportunity you can't miss.

I can leave.

It's the least I could do.

What's the name...

of the child?

It's none of your business.

Let's do the show together.

Are you out of your mind?

Do you really want to do that?

Are you afraid of being on the same show as me?

You're unbelievable.

Let's do it together.

Don't reject my offer. Or else...

I might go and see my child.

What did you say?

Don't let that happen.

Are you threatening me?

You're crossing the line.

Think whatever you want.

But you might want to accept my offer.

We should use a different marketing strategy for this product.

We have to choose a strategy that effectively tells...

the consumers that it is a product good for your health.

I think it would be better...

if we choose home shopping rather than television commercials.

- Okay. - Okay.

There's a lot of attention to our technical skills at the moment...

so there will be good news.

Let's get to work.

Okay.

(CEO Kim Jae Wook)

Hello, Kim Jae Wook speaking.

That's good to hear.

Good work.

How did that happen?

I'll take care of it.

Mr. Kim, the chairman is looking for you.

Okay.

(Smart City Construction Proposal)

Are you ignoring me on purpose?

I told you to stay out of construction projects.

Considering the size of the smart city, this is a bad idea.

It could destroy the Cheonji Group.

It's my dream. Are you ignoring my dream?

I'll make it come true,

but you have to decrease the size to two thirds.

I see where this is going.

You're going to decrease the size and invest it for your business.

After the launch, the stock price has been going up every day.

The future of Cheonji Group...

is not entirely based on Cheonji Construction.

I can already imagine how the company will look like...

after I die.

This is exactly why I can't die. For the sake of Cheonji Group.

- Come with me. - Okay.

You're...

taking care of that child behind me, aren't you?

There's nothing you can hide from me.

That's why you're putting so much effort to your new business.

It's just a thought.

A thought will lead to an action.

That's the order.

You're going to need a lot of money.

I worked hard enough for Cheonji Group...

to have the rights to take care of him.

He's not our family.

This company belongs to Joon Seo.

Why are you ruining the path of our child...

for a child who isn't even our family?

He is my family. He's Joon Seo's brother.

Who are you calling family?

He grew up with another family for 16 years.

That's not family.

I never asked for your permission.

It's too late for you to ask for it.

You lost your chance 10 years ago.

That doesn't matter. I'm not asking for it.

You scumbag.

You're trying to get my money with that attitude?

Don't even think about it.

Pull over.

I'm going to be late today. You can go home without me.

I'll wait.

Your wife will be worried if I don't take you home.

Okay.

It's nice to finally have a television.

It feels just like the time...

when my father brought home...

the black and white television when I was little.

Are you really that excited?

Of course.

Hyeon Woo will be so happy.

He used to stop crying...

when he saw his mom on television.

I should have brought the television sooner.

Thank you, Min Ho.

I haven't been a good mother-in-law.

I should have treated you better.

You must have been disappointed.

You've always been supportive.

You're such a caring person.

(Joeun Workshop)

There's an article about Ji Young.

Already?

She's going to be the new host of "What's Your Choice."

I'm such a big fan of that show.

She told she was going to be the host of a new show.

What kind of show is that?

I'm really sorry,

but something urgent came up.

I don't think can make it to dinner.

That's why I came with my student who will accompany you.

He accepted my favour when I asked him.

I trust you, Hyeon Woo.

Please take a seat.

I have a question.

What?

I only came because...

the teacher suddenly asked me to.

I shouldn't be here, should I?

Why do you think so?

I don't think you'll be able to enjoy the meal...

if you're with a little kid like me.

I'm thankful that you're here with me.

If you feel uncomfortable with me, feel free to leave.

I'm okay.

Should we eat now? What kind of food do you like?

I like...

(Mom)

Can I take this call?

Sure, go ahead.

Hello, Mom.

I'm on my way to Yangpyeong.

How did things go in Seoul?

Are you done?

I'll pick you up.

I'm done,

but I'll go home after I hang out with my friend for a little.

Okay.

Okay, Mom.

Drive safe home.

I'm sorry about the lie.

My mother doesn't like it when I eat outside.

She's too worried about me.

This restaurant has pretty good food.

Okay.

He made such a mess.

Why can't he sleep in his bed?

Is the attic more comfortable than his own room?

My goodness.

Let's watch some television.

When did she get here?

What are you doing outside?

Nothing much.

Didn't things go well...

in Seoul?

Mom, I saw...

Yes.

that child today.

What child?

Are you talking about Joon Seo?

Joon Seo?

How do you know the name of that child?

Have you named the child yet?

- His name is Joon Seo. - Joon Seo.

Joon Seo.

He told you that?

He told me...

after you gave birth to the child and almost died.

How could you hide this from me?

Why didn't you tell me sooner?

What's the point? He was sent to another family.

Still, you should have told me, Mom.

I didn't even know his name.

I had to call him "that child."

I always felt so guilty for doing that.

I felt like I had sinned.

Ji Young.

How could you not tell me?

How can you do that?

I wanted you to forget about it.

He's not even your child. I wanted you to forget about him.

How can I do that, Mom?

That's why I like architecture.

Architectural works last for 100 years, 200 years, even 1,000 years.

You're right. That's why people say that architects pursue eternity.

I want to build something like that one day...

so that even after I die,

people can visit my work...

and remember me.

Like Gaudi.

Do you like Gaudi?

He's my favourite architect.

Is that so? I see.

I really want to visit Park Guell.

Also,

I want to go to the cathedral that is still under construction...

for 130 years.

Yes, the Sagrada Familia.

That's right.

All you need to do is go.

I'm not sure if I'll be able to.

Why do you think so?

Nobody knows what will happen tomorrow, right?

Thank you for the meal.

- Hyeon Woo. - Yes?

Can I give you a hug?

I'm so proud of you. As an encouragement.

Let's go and see Gaudi, okay? I promise.

Did you leave something?

I just came back.

Don't worry about me. I'm okay.

You didn't have dinner yet?

Min Ho didn't come home yet.

Hyeon Woo said he'll be late as well.

The lights were still on in the workshop.

He must have a lot of work.

I guess so.

Jae Wook sent these to the store...

every year.

I didn't want you to see them.

You never talked about Joon Seo...

so I didn't want to bring it up either.

I didn't know you felt like that inside.

Thank you, Mom.

Can you be satisfied with those pictures...

without doing the show?

Min Ho doesn't deserve this.

He would be shocked if he finds out who Na Kyung is.

Do you have a lot of work?

I'm almost done.

Thank you for bringing the television.

I have a question for you.

Did you read the article?

There's a lawyer named Woo Na Kyung...

as one of the panels on that show.

I know.

You agreed to do the show even when you knew?

Why?

What do you really want?

Why do you want to get involved with those people again?

I don't know.

I just wanted to be close...

to the person who is raising the child.

Now?

Why do you want to do that now?

It's probably about time to...

forget about the past.

Haven't you had enough?

I can't forget it.

Even if I hit my chest and try my best to forget about it,

I can still hear the cry.

Honey.

I wondered if a hole in my chest would help me forget.

Would it make me feel less pain?

I even begged to suffer from memory loss.

I guess I don't deserve any of that.

It's only getting more vivid.

I'm sorry...

for not being able to understand you better.

It's all my fault.

Joon Seo.

You're late.

Mom wanted to have him sleep here.

Okay.

I heard Ji Young is going to be the host for your show.

I read the article.

I can't believe how easily you call her name.

I thought nobody remembered it.

You're right.

There are better terms.

Like your friend or Jae Wook's ex-wife.

I should have reminded you that.

I'll make sure I watch the show from now on.

I think it's going to be fun.

It's too bad that you won't get to have fun.

You must have been so excited to watch it.

I'm sorry but it's not going to happen.

It sounds like you won't do the show just because of me.

I guess you're afraid of Ji Young.

Jae Hee.

Don't you have to be nice to me these days?

What?

You're preparing for an event.

The legal department is going over the funding right now.

You requested for a lot.

So you're telling me that...

you're going to interfere?

I'm not interfering.

It's my job to take care of the funding.

I'll let you know what would happen if you dare to deduct any.

What's with the noise?

I'm sorry.

Are you going to sleep with Joon Seo?

I don't think you'll be able to sleep well.

Don't worry about it. You can go to your room.

Okay. Good night.

Why are you talking about Ji Young?

I think it's a good idea.

Do you really think so?

You said you didn't want to get into a fight with my sister.

Are you sure that's the only reason...

why you want me to quit the show?

You already have a lot on your plate at the company.

Besides, you've been on the show for a long time.

You almost fooled me...

until you said that I've been on the show for a long time.

You never watched my show.

You knew that I was on the show...

when Joon Seo wanted to have a tour of the broadcasting station.

Are you saying that you feel upset because I didn't know?

No.

I'm saying that I feel upset...

because you're telling me to quit the show now...

as Ji Young will be the new host of my show.

No, I'm not upset.

I feel mad.

Where are you getting at?

You gave me a reason to be on the show.

Thank you.

You gave me courage for confrontation.

Thank you.

Do you know you always say that to me?

It's because I'm thankful.

Is that everything?

That's not the word I'm looking for.

To me,

you and Hyeon Woo are everything.

That's the smile I was looking for.

You look the most beautiful when you smile.

(Episode 12)

Gosh, Ji Young.

I told you to apply some makeup.

They'll do it for me at the broadcasting studio.

Of course, I know that.

But you'll meet people on the way there.

Mom looks more beautiful without any makeup on.

What if you don't recognize me...

when you see me on TV?

As if that would ever happen.

He'd find you easily even with his eyes closed.

I wish you the best, Mom.

Thanks.

Where's Min Ho?

Dad's outside.

I'll drop you off.

Aren't you busy, though?

I happen to have business in Seoul.

You should just give in when someone offers you a ride.

Come on, get in.

- I'll be back. - Okay.

- See you later. - Drive safely.

Bye.

Mother.

Hey. Let's sit over there.

If it can wait until this evening...

No, have a seat.

You should quit the TV show.

I've decided to keep doing it.

Why are you being stubborn?

It's not me being stubborn.

Joon Seo absolutely loves to see me on TV.

I'm doing it for him.

Which is precisely why I want you to drop it.

I don't understand.

You should know that better than I do.

There won't be any reporters writing about...

Jae Wook being Ji Young's ex-husband.

You can't stop people from spreading words.

All the more reason for me not to back down.

I don't want to hear people saying that I'm running away from it.

I want to be a proud mom to Joon Seo.

Your father-in-law won't just take it when he finds out.

He'll think it's quite like me to come to such a decision.

Father always says we should take the bull by the horns.

Gosh.

Just don't shoot yourself in the foot.

Say hello to Ji Young.

Oh, my goodness. You look just the same as before.

- Hello. - It's nice to meet you.

You have no idea how thrilled I was to hear you'll be hosting this show.

Not because you had a grudge against the former host?

That's nonsense. I told you I'm a fan of hers.

I'm a fan, too.

Thank you.

Why isn't Na Kyung here yet?

Is she usually this late?

Well, she seems to be busy almost every time.

Oh, here she is.

- I got here a bit late. - Hi, you're here.

Why wouldn't I be here?

Hello, Ji Young. It's nice to meet you.

It's nice to meet you, too.

Why didn't you pick up your phone?

You know how busy I am.

It's not like I've ever pulled a no-show or something.

You're right about that.

Okay, shall we get the rehearsal started?

Are you done shooting?

We just wrapped up.

We're all going out for dinner since it's the first day of shooting.

That's for the better. I'm actually not done with work yet.

Where are you now?

Not very far from where you are. Call me when you're done.

I'll go and pick you up right away.

Okay.

Was it your husband?

How is he doing?

Where is the dinner gathering?

Let's go together.

You must have practiced a lot. You were pretty good.

I came, just like you wanted.

It's not because I got scared that you'd be coming for my son.

The way you provoked me got me thinking that...

you must have led a tough life the past few years.

What is it you want to say?

If you need any financial aid, I can help with that.

Think of it as a compensation.

But on one condition.

Don't get in contact with anyone other than me. I won't allow it.

You were able to gain Cheonji Group thanks to raising my son.

There is only one thing I want for compensation.

That's having my son, Joon Seo.

Who told you his name?

Did you meet with Jae Wook?

It's my way of telling you that I won't accept your preconditions.

All you need to do...

is tell me how he's doing whenever you're asked.

You've been quiet this whole time. Why are you doing this now?

When I met Joon Seo for the first time,

you shouldn't have tugged him away like that.

If you had the heart to consider what it would feel like...

for a mother to reunite with her son in 10 years,

the least you could do is let her hug him.

It shouldn't have been so hard for you...

to give his name when you were asked.

Fine, let's just say that you were scared that you might lose him.

I guess it's not surprising that you're not considerate enough.

Just like how you used to covet what's not yours.

Not a single thing about you has changed.

You've become spiteful.

Because there's nothing I have to lose.

Like you, it's natural to live in fear the more you possess things.

It's why you're still on the show.

So you can keep your eyes on me.

Don't flatter yourself.

It's baffling that you think you're a match for me.

Let's not keep the rest waiting.

The products are excellent, thanks to the preparations we made.

Coupled with the great marketing strategy,

the product's quite a hit already.

Oh, and this.

This one's the most popular among consumers who are athletes.

Is this the main product that we're pushing for?

Yes, sir.

We're doing our best to create underwear with improved qualities.

It'll set a new paradigm for underwear.

Have the employees tried these on beforehand?

Of course.

Our employees are accustomed to our high-quality products.

I see.

Please ensure that consumers are able to recognize good products...

even from a glance, by paying extra heed to marketing and report to me.

Yes, sir.

Sir, Ms. Woo called you several times earlier.

Really?

(Na Kyung)

What is it?

I'll be drinking tonight. Pick me up when I'm done.

I'll send Mr. Kim instead.

I want you to come yourself.

Isn't this what you wanted?

You've always wanted to see Ji Young.

Don't be so immature. It's all in the past.

Then there's no reason for you not to come, is there?

I had a long day today, so you should pick me up.

If you send Mr. Kim instead, I won't move an inch.

- You did well today. - Thank you so much.

It mustn't have been easy.

What theme should we tackle next episode?

- Goodbye. - Thank you for the meal.

- That was a great dinner. - Thanks for the dinner.

Oh, he actually came.

I told him not to but he insisted on coming.

It's a pleasure to meet you. I'm Jung Kyung Soo, the producer.

- Ji Young! - Honey.

- I'll get going. - Go ahead.

- Thanks for today. - Bye, then.

- Get home safely. - Bye.

Let's go.

- See you. - Bye.

How did the shooting go?

I don't think I made any mistakes.

I really hope the viewer ratings will soar.

Do you know why I called you out?

So that you'll get used to this,

with me also being present.

Get used to what?

I'm saying that I won't forgive you if you see her in my absence.

Hyeon Woo.

Can you come for a second?

Can you escort me to Seoul tomorrow?

To Seoul?

Hae Ji was supposed to take part in a relay tomorrow,

but she got injured.

It's a burn from hot water.

Did you hurt yourself while cooking?

How did you know that?

That's because it happens to my mom when she's in the kitchen.

She's burned her foot before from spilling hot water.

That's exactly what happened.

Can you take part in the match in my stead?

I'm not very good at swimming.

You're better than me.

- Me? - At diving underwater.

Should I take the picture?

He's a cute one.

Who? The guy you deluded yourself into thinking he likes you?

It's not a delusion, okay?

I'm sure he likes me.

It's a shame you can't even go to the swimming pool...

because you hurt your foot.

I know. Do you think there might be a way?

How would I know?

It's been ages I last had a romantic relationship.

You're of no help.

Speaking of which, how about I get remarried?

As long as he doesn't have a pot-belly.

I'd prefer it if he is a bachelor.

That would be unconscionable of me.

What bachelor would marry me when I have such a grown daughter?

I'll pretend to be your sister.

Okay, sis?

This looks delicious.

(My Notes)

(The 10 recipes I'd like to eat before I die)

Scoop your rice.

Are you the first to swim in today's match?

Yes, Grandma.

You better eat a lot to power up.

Quit making the fuss and just make the donation.

How will that help?

It's going out of hand, so I'm going to need some reserve funds.

The money I invested in that foundation is 80 million dollars.

The profit estimated is worth over 100 million dollars.

Invest 80 million and gain 100 million dollars?

You call that making a profit?

We're not running the foundation as if it's business.

Are you teaching your father? Where does that pride come from?

I'm sure they've got your point...

with enough lecturing at the breakfast table.

There wouldn't be a need for me to lecture them every morning...

if they understood my point.

People call me an angel for donating money...

but it's a shame that Father can't see that.

Mom.

Do you think I'm unhappy?

Why, my son?

You told me once before,

that if I'm unhappy, I should consider...

that it could be because I'm out of money.

Wire me some money.

How are you the complete opposite of your dad?

You said I shouldn't take after him.

I took your word.

Aren't I a devoted son?

It's time I got into in a relationship.

Does something about my face say so?

Yes.

Whenever I looked at your face, I saw your dad...

so I didn't feel lonely.

But now, I don't see him.

Even though I try hard to.

So...

you're feeling lonely, is that it?

Do you want me to set you up with someone?

Don't make any mistake.

Next, we're aiming right for the heart of Cheonji Group.

Mom.

Yes, did you sleep well?

I think I overslept.

I didn't know it was this late.

I left you so you could catch up on your sleep.

Is Hyeon Woo still in bed?

He got up early and left for Seoul.

Seoul?

Why would he go there?

He said there's a swimming tournament.

Well, something of that sort.

He said he's filling in for his friend because she's injured.

Is this aquatics center?

This is Song Hyeon Woo's mother calling.

Yes, hello.

Is there a tournament being held in Seoul today?

I was told Hyeon Woo will be taking part.

(Swimming Relay 2018 The 5th Let's Do It, Friends! Race)

The Let's Do It, Friends! Race held every year,

with contribution from Cheonji Group,

finally begins today.

I am here with Ms. Kim Jae Hee, the founder of...

the Sharing Love Foundation that is hosting this tournament.

- Hello Ms. Kim. - Hello.

This is the 5th event, right?

Yes, that's correct.

Could you tell us the purpose of this event?

At the Let's Do It, Friends! swimming relay,

children swim together with the hope that...

children with cancer will have a speedy recovery.

All donations will go to the Child Cancer Foundation...

so that low-income myeloid leukemia patients...

are able to receive surgery.

I heard you'll be donating 10 million dollars.

That's right.

- How old are you? - I'm 10.

How cute.

What's your record for 50m?

I'm not sure. What about you?

It's 32.60s for 50m freestyle.

That's impressive. Are you an athlete?

I'll be competing in the youth tournament.

You must have a great coach.

Should I tell you a secret?

What is it?

My coach is...

my mom.

That's amazing.

By the way, are you sick too?

Do I look that way?

Those who've recovered from an illness...

also compete in this tournament.

I used to be sick.

Are you well now?

Should I tell you my secret?

Yes.

I might die.

Really?

You, silly.

Every human is bound to die in the end.

You got me.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

Have a good day.

Hi, Seung Hoon.

Hi.

- Hey. - Hi.

Mom, you're getting better at it, aren't you?

The lies, I mean.

Is Na Kyung not coming?

As if threatening to cut the funding wasn't enough.

Is she not going to show up when her son's participating?

She'll be here.

- Is Hyeon Woo taking part too? - Hyeon Woo?

Are you talking about Ji Young's son? Is he actually here?

Hyeon Woo is here? Where is he?

Can you get me the list of the swimmers?

Yes, ma'am.

Hey, Jae Wook.

Jae Wook!

Where are you going?

You need to deliver your congratulatory speech soon.

I'll find someone to do it instead.

Is it because of Hyeon Woo?

Why should you avoid him?

Isn't it about time you met him?

What are you doing here?

What's all this seriousness?

Were you talking behind my back?

Who do we have here?

The mother has showed up.

Mom?

Mom!

Mom.

Hey.

(A Pledge to God)

Are you stupid? Should we let Joon Seo know...

how he was abandoned by his mother?

Is it too late for us to start over?

Can't you see that they're together?

Let's be together, Ji Young.

How could you grab her hand and take her in front of my eyes?

How could you?

You should tell him the truth. You're Hyeon Woo's father after all.

The time Min Ho has devoted to me and Hyeon Woo...

is more precious to me.

I'm having nosebleeds because I swam for too long.

It could happen to anyone.

It's drawing closer.

The time for consequences.

Dad.

I miss you.
