Original subtitles

(Episode 5)

Serve each side of the hall. Be quick.

Begin.

Please, sit.

I heard you recently became Chief Prosecutor?

Yes.

I hope he gets to head his district.

Could you put in a good word?

He should do more than that.

How about Prosecutor General?

What's going on?

What is this mess?

Sorry. I'll clean it up right away.

Why are you here?

How dare you show your face here.

I work for the hotel.

I don't care. Get out of my face.

Why should I?

I'm here to work.

How dare you talk like that?

Wasn't killing my husband enough?

Get out of here.

This is my workplace.

You don't have the right to boss me around.

That should cover your pay.

I don't ever want to see you again.

I'm sick of you.

(Jin Hyeong Woo, Kang Il Joo)

(Administrative Assistant)

Nice to meet you.

What did you say?

Of course you should give me back my constituency.

What's the problem?

We shouldn't be discussing that now.

She's right. You had too much to drink.

Be quiet.

Listen.

My father left me that constituency.

You only took my place in the by-election...

when I slipped up.

It's not your constituency. Give it back to me!

It's not something I can give back.

The voters make the decision...

and what you are doing right now...

would only make them turn away.

Be quiet.

Are you lecturing me?

What are you doing?

Oh, I'm sorry.

Why did my wine end up on you?

Why did you do that?

Why did you do that? How dare you.

That's enough.

Father.

It was all a mistake.

Father.

I am no coward.

I will say what I must in public.

I told you to stop.

- Sir, please stop. - Let go. Let go!

Let go of me.

Let me go!

What should we do? Your dress is ruined.

Don't worry about it, it's fine.

Thank you.

You just improved my dress.

Let's go.

- You're drunk. - It wasn't enough.

Get me more wine. I want more wine!

A party should have some drama for it to be fun.

Let's all have a toast.

To the future of this lovely couple, cheers!

Please sober up.

Dress, oh, dress.

You blood-red dress.

Let go of me, will you?

Miss.

I'm so annoyed.

Why am I so bloody artistic?

Why does her dress look even better now?

It didn't look better.

She was embarrassed and just said that to hide it.

You were the prettiest there.

- Really? - Of course you were.

Even my heart fluttered.

What's the use of that? I need the men's hearts to flutter.

I want to get married again.

Who will comfort my lonely soul?

Why don't all the nice men in this world notice me?

Psycho...

- Hey! - What?

I didn't say anything.

What nonsense is that?

Let's go meet some men!

Miss, please, don't. Not today. Take the day off.

I know you're drunk,

but you shouldn't have said all that.

Do I look drunk to you?

Were you sober when you said all that?

Your father won't like it.

I wanted him to hear it.

I wanted everyone present to know that I can...

take a stand against him.

Honey.

That is why, however hard you try,

you'll never be more than a typical woman.

A great man sometimes sacrifices his image...

to select and secure an heir.

Father, think about it.

I'm your eldest son.

Why do you coddle Il Joo?

You said I could...

get my constituency back from her once my trial is over.

- Father. - Your problem...

is that you got here without a struggle.

Prove that you have more guts than she does.

Use me if you must.

Quit whining like a girl and show me what you've got.

Do you mean he gave permission?

Is your brain finally working now?

My father wants to turn me into a lion.

Everything we worked toward for 15 years went down the drain.

The cunning old man.

I had no idea he would rush the wedding like that.

I'm glad you're back alive.

I almost lost you as well.

What should we do now?

Hyeong Woo.

Nothing will change.

It will just take longer.

It's not that simple.

Whether she likes it or not,

she will always side with her husband.

Once they have a child,

there will be no room for you.

Are you listening?

- Why? - Are you...

Do you really trust Il Joo?

She isn't...

the type that would change that easily.

Trust me.

He didn't see her there, did he?

Do you think Moo Hyeok can manage?

If he were anything like you, I wouldn't worry.

I wish he could at least stand his ground.

Don't you think Kang Seok Hyun acted a bit strange today?

How do you mean?

Take her away.

Let go of me.

I will see myself out.

What did she say?

She said he did nothing wrong...

and that she seduced him.

Men can fall for women like her.

Destroy her for me.

Now I see why...

you looked so confident on television,

but yet so sad and lonely.

It all makes sense.

You must have...

felt so hurt and alone.

Don't worry.

I will help you now.

I'm really sorry.

Sorry. I'm still tense from the marriage ceremony.

Aren't you tired?

Do you want to sleep alone tonight?

Would you mind?

Not at all. You must be more used to sleeping alone.

Sleeping with someone else will only make you feel uncomfortable.

Don't worry about me.

I'll sleep in the guest room.

Sleep well.

Il Joo.

I... love you a lot.

Why was she there looking like that?

Tell me. Where is it?

Where's the original?

Do you really not know?

Did you show it to anyone?

Where... did you get this?

I made it with the papers I found in your bag.

Well? Did you like seeing her?

All people are the same.

I'm talking about Kang Il Joo. Was she pretty?

Yes, she was.

The pure white dress...

was very beautiful.

If you like her that much,

do you want to go to an interview with me?

What interview?

My friend works there as a secretary,

and they're looking for helpers.

The pay's good and they treat you well.

So I'm interested.

You should come as well.

No thanks.

You said you liked it there.

Let's go together.

No. One day was more than enough.

They all...

live in a world different from mine.

Good morning. It's a lovely day.

You look like you lost weight overnight.

Did you not let him sleep?

Mr Kang is here.

Sit.

Did you sleep well, sir?

I did. Let's eat.

- How about Gangnam? - Pardon?

You want to work.

Wouldn't you prefer Gangnam to Il Joo's constituency?

Of course I would. That would be nice.

I'll ask the party members.

There's still time until the general election.

Plan how to get the voters.

Thank you, Father.

I will do my best.

Does that mean you'll get your congressman badge back?

Someone's going to be very proud.

Shouldn't you two go on your honeymoon?

Well...

We'll go after Congress closes session.

I have a very busy schedule.

You should go once the media announces your marriage.

You don't do anything important.

Are you Jin Hyeong Woo?

Yes.

You live here, too.

We'll meet often.

I heard a lot about you.

She said you're indispensable to her.

Please take good care of my wife.

Of course.

Have a good day.

See you.

Oh.

See you later. I love you.

I'll inform the press this afternoon.

The answers to their questions are in the envelope.

To avoid suspicion of an arranged marriage,

it's best to say you dated for a while.

You first met him at a zoo in Singapore.

Three years ago should work.

You should say it was before working at the Blue House.

The press likes an outgoing woman,

so say you asked him out first.

Are you all right?

What happened earlier will happen a lot more.

I'm sure.

He's your husband.

Yes.

Lady.

Lady!

- Yes? - What are you doing?

I asked for more spareribs.

Coming right up. Sorry.

Get them more spareribs.

We need to talk.

What's wrong?

Did something bad happen at the hotel?

You've been distracted all day long.

I'm really sorry. I was thinking about something.

What do you do tomorrow?

Work at the hotel, of course.

I told you to quit working there, didn't I?

Someone with your looks, going in and out of a hotel,

will make people wonder what you do there.

I told you I could support you so you don't have to work there.

Let's go to a stream...

and have some stewed chicken.

I don't like chicken.

There are so many women who like you.

Why do you want to marry a single mum?

You know how I feel about you.

If you keep doing this, I'll find another job.

You can't do this to me.

I'm not some pushover.

You took my money...

and now you cut me dead?

What do you mean?

Mum.

- Wake up. - What's wrong?

Get up, will you?

What is this about?

What time is it?

Did you borrow money from Mr Ma?

How much did you borrow?

At first, I borrowed 20,000 dollars.

Then 10,000 dollars more.

Why did you need the money?

You gambled again, didn't you?

You brat.

You always bring up the past.

I needed it to survive.

Because of your idiot father who...

was involved in a car crash and then drank himself to death.

I needed money to repay his debt.

Were you the one who paid it off?

I was the one who paid.

I just paid it off at last.

I'm sick of being in debt,

so why did you borrow more money?

Have you not thought about your own husband?

- What? - That idiot.

How do you think I managed after he stole two million...

from his company, died, and you went to prison for it?

Don't badmouth him.

You have no right to do so.

Why can't I?

He is to blame for our current situation.

Compared to that idiot,

Ma is a catch-and-a-half.

So what?

Will that catch-and-a-half accept Mi Rae?

I can raise her if he won't.

Maybe even Beom Soo can.

Don't brag about working so hard.

Get remarried when you still have a chance.

You don't want to be like me.

Don't nagging me.

It's hard for me, too.

I just want to live.

I know. Good for you.

I don't care if you live or die.

Where are you going?

To get drunk and die!

Wouldn't that make you happy?

Mi Rae.

Why are you out here? Do you need to pee?

Mum, are you going to leave me...

so you can marry Mr Ma?

- Mi Rae. - Don't leave me.

I want to live with you.

I don't want to live with Granny.

What nonsense are you talking about?

I will never leave you.

Okay?

Even if the sky were to fall,

I would never leave you.

Are you sure?

Do you swear on the sky and the stars?

I do.

Back then, when I had to leave you,

I cried so much.

I swore to never leave you again.

Dad.

How are you?

Is it nice up there?

Down here...

I'm...

really struggling.

Each time I think I got ahead,

I'm back to square one.

Why is my life like this?

Why won't Mum change?

Why did my husband die like that?

When will we...

move away from here?

Why did you leave us so soon?

I miss you.

Is it bad?

As I said before,

this kind of reaction is a bad sign.

If ventricular fibrillation occurs,

it could kill you before we can stop it.

And the treatment that you suggested before...

Is still the only option?

Yes. Medication will only do so much.

You need surgery,

but considering your age and blood pressure,

the risks are too high.

Be honest with me.

How much longer can I live?

Sir.

I can't say for sure.

It's fine. Tell me.

How many years would I last...

without surgery?

There are many variables,

but I'd say less than five years.

(Diagnosis)

He's...

Five years means...

he'll be dead before you announce your Presidential candidacy.

Maybe he already had that in mind.

That's why he's making you fight against your half-brother.

Come in.

Woonkang Foundation's chairman of the board is here.

Jin, I see you're here as well.

Were you busy?

No, sir.

Why are you here?

Can't I visit my little sister at work?

I shall leave you to it.

No, you should stay.

It seems like I'm not a welcomed guest here anyway,

so I'll get to the point.

Hand Jin...

over to me.

What do you mean?

You heard what our father said.

I need a very talented aide.

You got my constituency.

Give me something in return.

Jin isn't an object.

And I need him.

I'll pretend I didn't hear that.

Hey.

You seem to have it all wrong.

Politics isn't just for anyone.

You were the Blue House spokesperson...

and a congresswoman. You've done it all.

Stop ruining your own reputation and...

look after your husband.

That is what a woman should do.

Honestly, what do you think you'd be doing now...

if we hadn't taken you in?

You'd be working at some restaurant, don't you think?

You're stealing from others, just like your mum did.

A woman in politics? What a joke.

You're the joke.

- What? - Was there anything...

that you achieved by yourself?

You could barely keep the constituency...

your father had given you,

so you bribed people and lost your seat.

Shut your mouth.

How dare you lowlife talk to me like that.

You should shut your mouth.

How dare you call me a lowlife!

Have you lost your mind?

- Please, stop. - Step aside.

Come here.

How dare you!

Please, stop!

I won't work for you.

What?

Working for you would be nicer,

but I prefer working in a very rough environment.

I want to keep working with Ms Kang.

I'm sorry.

What an idiot.

He might as well wipe her backside.

Where to, sir?

- My office. - Yes, sir.

Why did you react like that?

You know what he's like.

He always hated my mother.

Taking it all in and biding my time isn't the only option.

He needs to know that I can take him down.

Hyeong Woo.

I will become President.

If this is what Father wants,

I'm confident that I can win.

But.

I need your help.

I'm scared to do it alone.

I'm scared I will...

end up like my mum.

I told you.

I'll stay and protect you.

That won't change until your dream comes true.

But...

I feel sorry for you.

Don't.

Let's look ahead.

Looking back will only drag us down.

Trust me.

The box has to be 40 by 64.4 cm,

- the golden ratio. - Okay.

You wouldn't have bad taste and pick a box...

the same colour as the flowers, would you?

Not at all.

With the heart in the centre,

surround it with red roses that symbolize passionate love.

White roses of purity,

and pink roses of happiness.

And no yellow roses of jealousy, please.

No blue roses of failure as well.

You understand, right?

Yes.

One more thing.

Fill in the extra space with baby's breath.

They look like snowflakes.

Okay.

- Oops. - Do it properly.

I'll do it.

Where were you for the last three hours?

I went shopping.

Do you think I let you marry her...

so that you could fawn over her?

Then...

was it so I could be your spy?

What kind of father does that?

They say women prefer jewels,

but I think Il Joo...

would prefer flowers.

Wait. What is she doing here?

I hear someone is about to spend a fortune.

Il Ran.

I see you're busy...

feeding, clothing, and educating your family...

with my family's money.

I'm shopping for Il Do.

Wow, look at you lie without as much as a blink.

You get thicker each day, don't you?

Look.

Do you think your father could pull off this look?

It's for Il Do when he has to dress casually for a luncheon.

What?

If you were really going to make him wear this,

then I am very concerned about your terrible taste.

Do you see this? This is what level she's at.

Oh dear.

Where's the limited edition item I ordered?

It just got in.

Watch who you let in.

If you accept people just because they have money,

you're no longer a designer brand.

What a joke.

What are you talking about?

Was I ever not on your side?

Exactly.

Now pick between Il Joo and me.

You're smart enough so stop acting like you don't get what I mean.

I always support the eldest son.

You should know that.

I'm serious.

You raised Il Joo then sent her to my father.

Stop testing my patience and just say it.

Very well.

What can I do to help you?

The foundation's slush fund.

Send it bit by bit to my wife's gallery behind my father's back.

What do you mean?

What slush fund?

What do you take me for?

Yeong Ae.

You took over from your husband...

and managed my father's secret funds.

That's what Il Joo and I spent...

on our campaigns.

If I get elected,

I will pay it back.

You can't let Hyeong Woo work under Il Joo forever.

I can only move the money...

with your father's approval.

You're so stubborn.

Han Yeong Ae.

My old man doesn't have long to live.

Get a grip and pick a side.

So it's true?

Kang only has five more years?

It's not certain.

Medical issues are never final.

Hyeong Woo.

Let's side with Il Do.

Before he dies,

we must take all that he has.

I will then tell him face-to-face...

that this is the fruit of the seed he sowed.

Il Do is our best bet.

He isn't cut out to be a politician.

It looks like he's weighing them both,

but in the end, Kang...

will pick Il Joo.

That is why we must join forces with Il Do.

A fool is easier to control.

Il Joo is too dangerous.

She's too cunning and now...

she has powerful in-laws.

She won't do as we say.

Trust me.

I can control her.

A married woman is different.

Are you...

having second thoughts?

Il Joo is only a tool.

Have you forgotten that?

Mother.

What are we trying to take from Kang?

His dream and all his money.

The money my father died for.

That money...

will never go to Il Do.

Kang's dream is to make Il Joo President.

To get what we want,

we must stick to Il Joo.

No.

I am better at making political decisions than you are.

Il Do is our best bet.

What's wrong with the colour?

Who would wear this?

Could you just... wear

this in front of Il Ran?

Did you two fight again?

I went to buy something for my dad...

and got insulted in public.

Compared to what she bought...

Why were you even there?

You know my sister only shops there.

And you could buy your dad's clothes...

at the market.

Have you forgotten...

it's his birthday tomorrow?

Is it?

Send him something to eat, like ginseng.

Was it the lighting?

What's wrong with the colour?

Is this real crocodile skin?

You can have it.

Are you sure?

Throw everything away.

Are you sure?

Shove them in the lowest drawer of my closet.

They don't deserve to see the sunlight.

This and this should be burned.

You paid extra to buy this.

Because the other woman wanted it,

not because it's my style.

I'm exhausted.

Run me a bath.

I shopped too hard today...

and my joints ache.

Yes.

Thank you.

They're aster flowers.

The Germans pluck the petals to see if someone loves them.

While waiting for you,

I plucked them all off...

trying to see if you loved me.

Did you?

This is our first date.

Let's...

start off on the right foot.

Let's go on dates and hold hands.

Let's slowly build on our love.

I won't mistreat you...

just because we are married.

Thank you.

There's one more.

This jewel symbolises fidelity.

We belong to each other...

until the day we die.

(German Love)

"Ask a flower in the field why it blooms."

"Ask the sun..."

"why it shines."

"The reason I love you..."

"is because I can't help it."

What is it?

You didn't eat much for dinner.

Are you unwell?

I'm fine.

You lose interest in food at my age.

Ms Ko said that...

she's looking for a new helper.

Look after yourself.

Il Joo.

When I was young, I had a dog.

It was more loyal than most men.

But one day,

it swallowed rat poison and died.

I was so sad I couldn't eat for three days.

But...

then my mother bought me another little puppy.

As time passed,

I grew to love it more than the previous dog.

In the end,

a dog is only a dog.

We must be extra careful with hunting dogs...

because they might turn out to be wolves.

Father.

Used well, a poison can be very useful.

Are you aware it's a poison?

I have much to give you.

I wish you could have a clear focus.

I can't look out for you forever.

I'm really sorry.

I can't repay it all in one go.

But I'll pay you a little each month with interest.

You're really upsetting me. Do you know that?

Do you think this is about the money?

I have enough to live on even if you don't pay me back.

You know me.

I own two buildings.

But I would feel uncomfortable if I were to not pay you back.

If that's the case,

repay the 30,000 dollars in 50 year's time,

and repay the interest over those 50 years.

You can deduct my pay starting this month.

I should get back to work.

No, you don't have to work.

Why...

That's hot.

Your face looks terrible.

It didn't work out, did it?

Why is she so stubborn?

She won't give me any leeway.

She's always been like that.

A gentle push isn't enough to get through.

Even the hotel manager...

seems to adore her,

but she won't budge.

A hotel manager?

She takes after me and has a pretty face.

She even has a great figure.

Why wouldn't the men drool?

Don't you worry, though.

You have me, don't you?

Is there anything you can do to help?

To get her to open up,

you must open up your wallet.

What? Again?

Then give up.

I'll have the hotel manager pay you back.

Hello?

Did you find it?

Yes.

What's going on?

Why do they have these papers?

Why did my husband...

pose for a photo with Kang Seok Hyun?

I cannot tell you that.

Is Kang...

somehow involved...

in my husband's...

death?

I suspect Kang Seok Hyun...

had your husband killed.

Do you remember your first anniversary?

Kang was chasing your husband that day.

Why? What for?

Why would he...

kill my husband?

For money?

That is what you must find out.

Who are you?

Why are you telling me all this?

If you wish to find out about your husband's death,

get close to Kang Seok Hyun.

When you do, wear glasses.

Glasses?

Why?

Hello? Hello?

Hello?

"Hotel chef".

"Restaurant chef".

"Korean cuisine chef".

"Meat diner"?

Isn't she the one who made a mess at the wedding?

- The meeting's over already? - Yes.

Did you meet the head of our party?

Yes.

I dropped by the Blue House as well.

Let's go inside.

Are you interviewing the helpers?

Yes, ma'am.

I was going to report to you when I found one.

Oh?

What a coincidence.

It's the same dress.

The same design and colour doesn't mean it's the same dress.

They're different materials.

Where did you get this and for how much?

I paid 25 dollars for it at the Namdaemun Market.

Wow.

She just described your sense of fashion.

Even designer brands...

look so cheap on you.

No, ma'am.

Even I think my dress is totally different from hers.

The shoulder lines and the waist lines are different.

If they're so different,

why does she look just as cheap?

Let's see, is she the problem?

Doesn't our guest look much nicer in the dress?

She's much taller, so...

No, no, no, no. She may be tall,

but her front is just as flat as her back, poor thing.

No. She's very curvy...

Shut your mouth.

How dare you keep talking back.

- Take her outside. - I apologise.

Come with us.

Let go of me. I will see myself out.

Take her away.

Let go of me.

I will see myself out.

What is it, Father?

(Glamorous Temptation)

Shin Eun Soo?

Sang Hee.

I need you to find someone for me.

Is that all you want?

I was with her for 15 years.

Isn't it only natural we fall in love?

It's ambition, not love.

Leave.

You crossed the line.

I got the job as their helper.

You'll be able to find out how your husband died.

She was his wife?

And she got a job in my house?

(Glamorous Temptation)

(Previously)

I like you. You like me, too.

I thought you were my only friend.

How could you do this to me?

It's no crime to like someone?

Why did you even say that?

Because I liked him.

I've liked him for a long time.

I quit.

Clean up the mess you made.

You talked about our slush fund.

You said you wouldn't manage it anymore.

Where's the original?

Are you trying to ruin our family?

Tell me, you fool! Where is Eun Soo?

Was it you? Did you have Eun Soo kidnapped?

That's why he's under investigation.

I am so sorry for all the trouble.

You killed him! How dare you come here!

You heard me!

There is no legend anymore.

I'm sorry, Eun Soo.

I didn't think it would go this far.

Sang Hee, he's your father.

Baek Cheong Mi gave birth to her.

She is your biological daughter.

Kang Seok Hyun is the most powerful man in Korea.

We must use her...

to take all that belongs to Kang.

Sang Hee will be the boost we need.

Join his family. I will protect you.

With my life.

Hyeong Woo?

Sang Hee?

(Glamorous Temptation)
