East of Eden

Episode 38

Hyung, are you sleeping?

What's going on?

Can't you tell me at least?

I wonder...

what's making you hurt like this by yourself?

Episode 38

Are you making hang-over soup?

Sister...

you don't have any idea what's going on with Dong Chul right?

If it's making him go that crazy, it can't be something simple.

I wonder what it could be.

The hangover soup is going to get cold.

Hyung...

Yes...

Dong Chul, the day after tomorrow is Dong Wook's birthday.

Don't forget.

Okay.

So, don't cause trouble.

Okay.

Ever since you were young, it's always been like that.

Whenever it was his birthday, something bad happened.

Mother.

- Dong Chul... - Hyung

Dong Wook...

whatever it is...

he probably wants to deal with it on his own.

Hyung, what's going on? Can't you at least let me know?

What's going on... that you're keeping it to yourself?

Since Mother...

was talking about when we were younger, I remember the day...

you took the blame for me,

when I put the house on fire.

Dong Wook...

we can't leave each other,

not even one step, okay?

Okay.

As long as you don't leave us,

then that's fine.

Don't forget...

Hyung, to me... you are my father.

Okay.

Dong Chul! Dong Chul! There's a guest

President Guk is here.

President Guk?

Come out. It must be something urgent. Hurry up.

Something like that happened?

We didn't even know about it.

You're here.

Dong Chul, last night, we got attacked.

What do you mean by attacked?

Young Ran was taken.

Taken? Where was she taken?

No Hyung!

President Guk...

I don't know how you were attacked, but don't involve my brother.

- Dong Wook. - Hyung.

I'm not saying this as a prosecutor but as your younger brother.

The work you do at the casino now, does it still involve fighting with gangsters?

Prosecutor Lee,

don't you think your words are too harsh?

It may be harsh, but forgive me and listen to me, President

Hyung, why don't you quit this job now?

Lee Dong Wook.

Dong Chul, I'm going to leave now.

What's going on right now?

Dong Chul, is this what you were worrying over?

Your brother, Prosecutor Lee,

he treats you however he wants to, right?

What's going on?

For Young Ran to be released,

between either the President or you,

one of your lives have to be taken.

They will do this in Macau in front of the boss.

Did you sleep well?

You must know that I didn't sleep well.

You should go to the blue house.

What is the slogan that this government stands for?

- There is no safe ground - Then there is a safe ground?

- Yes. - Then why are you bothering them then?

The power he is throwing now,

it's no less than Lee Gi Boong who was called as the foster son of the first president.

He is keeping all high level information to himself.

He even took a pledge of loyalty from military generals.

Hye Rin.

Since everyone is closing their mouths,

does HanSae Daily have to do that as well?

You have to think about the people that trust HanSae Daily.

Anyway, he himself wants to see you, so go up there.

Did he contact you personally? To meet Hye Rin?

Is it such a big deal?

Of course it is big thing. He is called as a little president.

Hye Rin, don't be too harsh on him.

You can cause him encourage the reform of media.

If the media should be reformed, it should!

Hye Rin

Myung Hun, do you know what day it is today?

There's a meeting with stockholders.

It's also the day to sell Taesung electronics.

How does it feel to sell Taesung electronics in the way that you did?

You will find out how it feels when you, the president goes with me.

President?

Now you don't want to even call me father?

You will be punished for just trusting a piece of paper

from your grandfather's will and going against me.

Father.

Is that something a father should say to his son?

What about the mother who cut his ties from me?

Will Shin Tae Hwan fall down just because of the loss of the electronics company?

Don't you know that Shin Tae Hwan can't fall even if he wanted to.

As it is said, "Wicked success disappears like fog"

Wicked?

The things that the wicked earn will

be taken away from him someday and he will lose it all.

You

And all his works will disappear like a storm

There is no one in the world that calls his father evil.

You said you buried Lee Dong Wook's father right?

People call people evil when they have killed someone.

There's a saying that...

�A wicked man's deeds are paid back toward the children of the man�

I'm saying that because I'm afraid of that.

Okay, if that's so, from now on you're not my son.

As soon as the stockholder meeting is over, give in your resignation letter.

- Father. - You heard him, right?

This guy is not in right mind.

Your mother and your grandfather aren't in their right minds either.

Myung Hun.

It's done, Mother.

It's time for this to happen.

Honey, why are you doing this? What are you trying to do?

Do as I say.

You shouldn't get involved in trying to save President Guk's daughter.

This is the chance to quit working for President Guk.

Thank you.

Because of you, everything has gone smoothly.

Everything is done.

I hope things go well.

President, what's going on?

What are you talking about?

Lee Dong Chul is here.

What?

Lee Dong Chul.

What are you doing here?

You seem to have sent people to my sister's wedding that weren't invited.

Anyways, is it done?

Yes.

Welcome, Representative.

Greet each other,

This is our largest stockholder for Taesung electronics.

I will repeat it,

he will be in charge of Taesung electronics from now on.

That's right,

I am Lee Dong Chul who will be in charge of Taesung electronics

Lee Dong Chul.

Thanks for growing Taesung Electronics.

and handing it over, President Shin Tae Hwan.

It was you.

It was you who deceived in Macau and took Taesung Electronics away from me.

You disguised yourself and was working behind President Guk.

I bought this company even though...

there is a lot of faulty things going on with it, right?

Okay.

If you think that way, it's like buying a broken car.

It's not like you're gaining much.

The company has done many illegal things.

Should I let the public know...

how many illegal stuff you've done?

So much that it would shake the Tae Sung establishment?

This time it's the electronics company,

but just wait till I can shake other parts of Tae Sung as well.

How dare you... in front of the president.

You... you were the one who caused chaos in my sister's wedding right?

Be careful!

Shin Myung Hun, don't forget it.

Because of your mistake, Tae Sung Electronics has gone over to Lee Dong Chul.

You will regret this, do you understand?

Shin Myung Hun tried to keep the company's image...

and ran things honestly.

He must not take after his father?

Lee Dong Chul...

I will see how long you will last.

Before I fall, I will see you fall.

I will show you that you can't last long.

Take care of Tae Sung electronics well.

You will have to be careful with it.

That idiot.

He's trying to take the rest of Tae Sung?

Is he?

Kyung Tae, did you do anything when you sent your men to the wedding?

You should have at least make his mother crippled.

President Shin Tae Hwan!

You must be out of your mind.

You killed Lee Dong Chul's father, Lee Ki Chul,

now your going after his mother, too?

Lee Dong Chul's father?

You... you must really be out of your mind!

I think it's true that he isn't in his right mind.

Since some people saw him at the wedding yesterday.

What? What were you doing at that family's wedding?

Secretary Chun, listen up.

Because of you, I almost died in a car accident.

You should be thankful you're still standing alive before me.

Your daughter's life is in danger, but he went up to check on his company.

I think he has changed since he has become in charge of Tae Sung Electronics.

Yes, this is Lee Dong Wook.

Yes, Prosecutor. It's me.

I'm in Incheon.

Yes. Did you find out?

Yes. You were right.

The people in Incheon are connected to the people from Macau.

Are they the one that made a mess in President Guk's casino?

Yes, your right.

How come then, President Guk...

didn't let the police know and is trying to cover it up?

It seems there must be a negotiation going on.

A negotiation?

Yes. I'll call you back when I get more information.

Okay, I'll be ready.

If it's a negotiation, then maybe they kidnapped President Guk's daughter?

If not, what do you think is the reason...

President Guk is not letting the police know about this incident?

Your problem is you think too far ahead.

Yes, it is a problem.

I just said it from top of my head.

- We're back. - We're back.

Did you find out?

Yes.

President Guk is acting strange.

He sent his strong men to Incheon.

And he has hidden the people that we were connected to, also.

Did you get any information about his daughter being kidnapped?

What?

Ms. Choi seems to collect information even just being at her desk.

Do you have information that she's kidnapped?

- Yes. - Yes.

Yes, according to the info... 90 percent sure.

Even the police drug team are keeping

track of the boats from Macau Triad and warehouses.

Prosecutor...

do you think the main reason of attack

was because they wanted to kidnap his daughter?

I think we should get ready.

It might be more dangerous than we think.

Should I start putting people in Incheon?

Yes, let's do that.

I'm late, I'm sorry.

Did you have to go to the stockholder meeting?

Yes, we had to.

Isn't it because you were against him coming here?

President, Let's go in first.

Do you think I waited for you because I'm afraid for my life?

It's about my daughter, do you think I'm worried for my life?

I'm ready President.

Then give it up, Dong Chul.

President Guk.

Who are these people...

from Macau that want our lives?

And why does Dong Chul have to pay for someone else's sin?

Mr. Jang,

Even if you work for the government, you can't say this to me.

You have no idea what we went through in Macau

we survived through life and death there.

You sold the stocks...

for Tae Sung Electronics to Dong Chul right?

What's going on?

What's so important about the Tae Sung Electronics

that you're back stabbing me?

President.

What is it?

When you said you wanted it, I said okay.

But then, why did you stab me in the back?

I will tell you what's going on when I come back.

You can't Dong Chul.

How many lives do you think you have?

- You can't, no way. - Uncle, I will take care of it.

Hold on, do you have a relationship of uncle and nephew?

So, are you doing this because you feel bad for me?

No, I'm not doing this for you.

Then why are you doing this?

If it's not, then why?

Do you love Grace that much to die for her, is that why?

President, I don't know about love.

But I'm doing this because I have to do it.

- Let me do this. - No Dong Chul

Uncle don't worry about me.

Don't worry about it.

She thinks she's coming here to see me.

Oh, who is that?

- Who is that? - That boy...

Isn't it Seung Wook?

Does he think I won't recognize him since he has glasses on?

Seung Wook

Hey Seung Wook.

It's me. In Nan's aunt.

Hold on.

It's been a long time, aunt.

Yes, since you're a prince, do you think your all that with wearing your sunglasses?

You used to come to my house often.

Are you dating?

Yes?

I heard you had a broken-heart.

I'm having an interview with a reporter, aunt.

Oh greet each other, this is Tae Sung's President Shin Tae Hwan.

Hello.

If you are the president of Tae Sung, then I owe you a lot.

Oh, is that so?

There's a lot of people we meet so.

I will visit you soon, aunt.

When you do, bring your interest money.

Yes, ma'am

If you want to hide your face, put on bigger glasses.

Who is that?

You idiot.

He's the son of Korea's President.

Oh, I see.

How much money did you give them?

Mother, please be a strong support for me.

They don't look like they are on a date.

If you came up to the Blue House, then I wouldn't have to hide my face.

I think, you actually enjoy wearing sunglasses.

It makes you look like a celebrity.

I don't think so.

My father is amazed every morning.

He feels your writing...

is very sharp like a sword.

Even though he skips his breakfast, he has to read your writing.

Your being too modest.

But, was it hard for you having the title of a female reporter?

Why are you asking?

Why do you think?

A reporter is a reporter.

Why do they have to add female to that.

I don't think your skills are that bad that you have to emphasize you're a woman.

You know what to say to please a female reporter.

Even in England and America, there is discrimination against female reporters.

Female reporters cannot go up the ladder because they are not allowed to.

So is it harder to go up the ladder in newspaper companies

than in any other professions?

Okay...

that's all I prepared to impress reporter Min Hye Rin.

Your honest

Min Hye Rin...

give up on the interview with me.

The way you speak makes you sound like you're the head of the NIS?

NIS = National Information Service

You seem to live up to the rumors, that you're one person NIS.

I heard you opposed the reforms of media being made.

Why did you fail?

Because of the criticism covered the newspapers about the reforms.

But I'm not giving up just because I failed.

So how can you admit that easily that you're the one who proposed the media reform?

Because I'm in front of you right now.

I like your writing...

as much as my father does.

Every morning I listen to your voice.

Let's eat since I prepared this to thank you.

No, I will pass

Eating food from immoral wealth...

can cause my liver affected by fat.

Immoral wealth...

Is there any moral wealth?

You still don't know?

That your life is located on the top of the mast.

So you're saying that I'm on the top of the mast...

that I can fall at any moment?

Why Mother is keeping you...

and not abandoning you... I don't know.

Don't you know?

I thought you would.

It's the same for you too.

You feel sorry for me.

I struggled...

to make it in this cruel and tough wilderness.

Yes,

she protects me

because she feels sorry for me since I left the ones I loved.

You don't know that you're living an abandoned life at that wilderness.

I was abandoned?

Yes, I was abandoned... that's the truth

My wife is against me...

and my son...

doesn't call me father.

That's why...

I've been starting to look back at my life nowadays.

If there is anything I regret,

there is only one thing.

Throwing you Jae Hee out of my life,

It is the only thing I regret.

If that's the only thing,

you're so far.

Of course you're so far.

That girl Janice,

was she your first love like me?

How many first loves does a evil man like Shin Tae Hwan have?

But it seems you still have romantic feelings left for her.

Located on the top of the mast...

You guys still think about each other.

What a sight to see.

So the only thing you regret is abandoning her?

A man who took a life from me,

he is still living as a human.

Yoo Mi Ae

Yes,

Yoo Mi Ae was crazy and didn't know that.

So the truth is I must take Janice from you before I take you

to crush your heart.

Yoo Mi Ae...

you should leave this place seeing as you're still breathing.

It seems like your own wife has given up on you.

So I think I will crush Janice in a car, like you did to me

What?

I have to see Janice,

full of blood on her face...

like this.

Janice.

Wow, Tae Ho you were playing well as you waited for me.

So were you going to go buy Dad a present?

Of course.

Dad taught me a greeting.

What kind of greeting?

Do you know what this means, Mom?

Mom I love you, Mom you are the best in the world.

That's what it means.

When did Dad teach this to you?

It's a secret, he said it's a secret.

This is Tae Sung Hotel.

Hello

Hello

Ji Hyun

Ji Hyun, it's me.

It's Lee Dong Chul.

Dong Chul oppa what is it?

Can I meet you right now?

Do you have time?

Why do you want to meet me all of a sudden?

Why... do you want to be congratulated for taking over Tae Sung Electronics?

You don't know why?

I don't know.

So if you don't know why, just meet up with me.

I'll be waiting downstairs.

You're Tae Ho right?

You've got big.

Mister, You know me?

Of course.

Do you know what this means?

You don't know, right?

I know.

My dad only taught me.

I know it too.

Wow you're the best.

Tae Ho, we have to talk.

So let's stop now.

Come here.

Okay.

Tae Ho go ahead and play.

Mom, I need to pee.

I'll go use the bathroom.

- You know where it is right? - Yeah.

Let's sit down.

Ji Hyun...

You knew it too, right?

This crazy fate that has happened to us.

No, no I don't know Dong Chul oppa.

I know this crazy fate that is happening to us.

Okay... Okay.

I want to live not knowing it too.

Because it feels...

like I wasted my life for nothing.

Even though you feel like you wasted your life for nothing.

Let's just live life the way we are living know.

I know how you lived your life,

But...

whether your brother is Shin Myung Hun or Lee Dong Wook,

You would have lived for him.

Yes oppa, even though you feel like you wasted your life.

It's all in the past now.

So...

we can't go back now.

Okay.

I'm thankful that you think that way too.

I came here to ask you to think that way,

to ask you for that favor too.

Then...

can you stop your revenge

against President Shin Tae Hwan,

too?

No, I don't think I can do that.

I don't think I can forgive him yet.

Neither me nor my family.

Not yet.

What about Prosecutor Lee Dong Wook?

How long...

will he have to do that to his father?

I don't know.

Anyways Ji Hyun,

let's just stay like this for a while.

Let's just stay like this for a while.

Please.

I'll leave first.

You came.

Yes.

What happened?

Just sit down first.

I have something to tell you.

Myung Hun.

Who is it?

- Who put him in the hospital? - Who do you think it is?

It's your father who did this.

What?

Your grandfather...

can't wake up again.

How did you know he was here?

Lawyer Hong,

who was going on a business trip overseas called me.

Grandfather's will was stolen too.

What?

Your father is a really scary man.

Don't call him my father.

He isn't my father.

He isn't my father.

Grandfather... Grandfather.

It's Myung Hun, Myung Hun!

- Grandfather! - Father!

Father!

We can't leave him here.

Let's put him in another hospital.

Dong Chul.

Even if the world is cruel,

something like this can't happen.

What kind of sin did we commit for something like this happened to us?

This can't be.

This definitely can't happen.

Dong Wook...

is not related to you but related to Shin Tae Hwan?

No, no it can't...

it can't be... it can't be.

Dong Chul,

what you just told me...

Don't let it out!

Please don't let it out.

If your mother finds out...

the day she finds out...

We have to just live like this...

We have to just live like this!

Your mother... me...

Ki Sun... you...

and Dong Wook.

It's so hard to live in this world.

Even if it's hard to live...

Where is she...? I'm going to go find her!

I'm going to go find nurse Yoo Mi Ae.

And make her keep silence.

Where is she?

Little Mother

So Little Mother, it's only for you to know.

Honestly, it was only for me to know.

But I told you because I have to go somewhere for a little while.

If something happens while I'm away,

so that you can take care of it.

No, Dong Chul.

I can't take care of it on my own. I can't handle it.

Dong Chul, don't ever leave home.

No matter who it is for.

Please don't do it, Dong Chul!

I ask of you.

Little Mother...

you know what I mean right?

What's wrong honey?

Honey, what are you doing here?

I was going to take Father to the Blue House.

Blue House?

Honey, since when did you look at things like that?

Father said...

Can you stop saying "Father" in front of me?!

If you follow my father well enough, then you don't need me,

to get inheritance and then you can make Tae Ho the heir.

But my ears can't handle you calling him father in front of me!

Tae Ho's dad!

Tae Ho's dad... why are you doing this?

Are you crazy?

Yeah, I wish I was crazy.

If I was crazy, I could live like a person!

What are you doing over here?

You must really be crazy!

What are you doing?

Tell me what happened to grandfather?

What happened to President Oh?

Who made him collapse and moved him over to a hospital?

Shin Myung Hun, put this golf club down.

What are you doing in front of your father?

This time you helped do it, right?

Tae Ho's dad!

Shin Myung Hun!

Shin Myung Hun

You're trying to violate a moral law as well.

It wasn't me the one who started violating a moral law, but you, President Shin Tae Hwan!

You have no right to say that in front of me.

You were the one...

who signed President Oh's will to become heir and put me out of my position.

With a will which is nothing but a dummy.

You were about to take over my position illegally.

You were even about to throw stone to your father's face.

But since it isn't working out, your making a mess in my office?

Your using a gold club in your father's office?

Tae Ho's dad...

President.

You try to kill my grandfather twice,

and you go to the lawyer's office and steal the will.

Was it all your doing?

Daughter-in-law... call the police immediately!

Report that my son is being blinded by trying to become the heir,

and is swinging the bat in front of me.

Report...

that President Oh's will is stolen.

Shin Myung Hun!

Write a resignation letter now!

I have no reason to keep you here!

Should I do that president?

Do it right now!

From now on, you have no right to be here.

Then before I write my resignation,

there are some things I have to take care of.

Should I call The National Tax Service first or The Public Prosecution?

And tell them where Tae Sung's secret safe is.

Should I tell them that first?

What?

Should I tell them the secret lobby plan for Iran waterway construction to blow it away?

He must be crazy... he must be crazy.

He must be crazy from wanting to become the heir.

- President should I report him? - Secretary Chun, please leave.

These are family matters.

Please leave now.

How did he find out about all this?

I didn't even let you know about it.

We knew the son of a construction building company

who went to university in the U.S.

There was a phone call from him asking,

if your son knew about the things you were doing?

Don't you think you went too far, father?

I went too far?

Then let me ask you one thing.

Did you or did you not know

that Myung Hun signed President Oh's will?

Did you or did you not know?

I'm asking you if you knew?

I didn't know father.

You didn't?

I didn't know. I didn't know president.

President?

Are you not going to call me father anymore?

The construction you're doing cost more than $2 million, right?

Myung Hun can take care of it.

Is it your plan or Myung Hun's?

The son of the construction building company was my friend.

Since Tae Ho's dad sold the electronics company,

shouldn't he be in charge of the construction company?

Okay

It's what you wanted as well.

For Tae Ho's dad to become a heir, and put me aside

I don't know about that.

But...

isn't it obvious for a mother to want Tae Ho

to inherit a healthy Tae Sung?

Healthy Tae Sung?

Okay, your honesty is always a good point about you.

Please give...

the construction company to Tae Ho's dad, Father.

I ask of this favor, Father.

What are you going to do about the Blue House event?

I will pass this time.

I have to spend some time with Tae Ho's dad.

Okay, did you have good dreams last night?

Yes, we dreamed of having three sons and three daughters.

You're so greedy.

What are you going to do with six children? Make a basketball team?

Where did Mother go?

I don't know.

She left without saying a word and is still out.

We made a newlywed room, so go in and take a look at it.

We were going to go get ourselves our own room.

No, let's just live together, just live together.

Eat the restaurant food and make some money.

You knew they were coming back from their honeymoon today?

Where did you go?

Your eyes are all puffy.

Did you go somewhere and wailed?

Mother...

What happened?

Ki Sun's mother...

As a first son

I have to take care of them, uncle

You know you can't go back there

You don't have the power to take care of your family now.

You can go back...

when you have the power to take care of them.

Mister, you're so filthy poor.

How old are you?

One-nine, 19

I can do it

But you're the one who can't do it

You have things you have to take care of

You have to make the dreams of your father come true

And you have a family you love more than Guk Ja

That's why I like you Lee Dong Chul

I like you so much that...

that I can't throw a tantrum.

- What is this? - It's from President Guk.

Give them a signal.

President Guk, won't ever go in a position that he will be killed in.

But instead he'll put out someone he wants dead

- It's been a long time, Miss Grace. - Lawyer Kim Tae Sun.

We were entrapped by President Guk.

Have I lived a life where I knew everything?

Stop it!

This is Korea Public Prosecution special division.

Cooperate the inspection quietly.

How does a mother not know that?

You take after your mother.

Stop pretending you're the only one who feels pain.

- Grace - Hyung

This time, really leave me

But there was love, I had days that I could feel a life being beautiful.

Thanks, Guk Ja.
