(Episode 40)

(Chairman Lee Youngguk)

Yes?

I was able to track down

Ms. Park Dandan's birth mother as requested.

Really?

Her birth mother's name

is Kim Jiyoung.

Kim

Jiyoung?

According to the file the hospital had,

the name Kim Jiyoung was listed as the birth mother.

I searched for Ms. Kim's whereabouts

and found out that she left for the US

less than three months after giving birth.

She then fell off the grid.

Should I look into it more?

My mom

left me when I wasn't even 100 days old.

She abandoned me.

Ms. Park...

I don't wish to find the woman

who deserted me.

So Mr. Lee,

please stop looking for my mom.

No. This is good enough.

Thank you.

Kim Jiyoung?

The US?

It can't be Anna, can it?

What am I thinking now?

Kim Jiyoung is a common name.

My mom must've been so bad.

That may be why I'm not supposed to meet her.

But Mr. Lee.

Even if my mom is

a bad person that everyone in the world mocks,

I want to find her.

Even if it's just from behind,

I want to see her.

Hello?

Find the whereabouts of Kim Jiyoung,

Park Dandan's birth mother, as soon as possible.

Yes, please.

Dandan will be

moving out of that house by the end of this week.

So make sure to get things done

before Dandan changes her mind.

As soon as possible.

Okay.

I'll find a ticket that leaves next week.

Then can I see Dandan again now?

Yes.

Mark my words though.

Sure. I'll never let her find out.

I'll be really careful.

I'll make sure she never finds out that I'm her mom.

I promise.

My gosh. Those two are seeing each other again.

All right. I should leave some evidence.

I'm sure there's something going on between those two.

(Brothers Jokbal)

Hey, Yongpil.

You punk.

Where have you been without sweeping the alley?

You should take a look at this.

Mr. Park is a big disappointment.

He was meeting with that lady again.

Oh, dear. It is Mr. Park.

Yongpil, just look at these two.

It looks like they're having an affair, doesn't it?

Mr. Ma.

What do you mean? Are you talking about my husband?

Goodness. It's Ms. Kim and my husband.

Well... About that lady.

Are you acquainted with her?

Yes, I am. I know her well.

But did you say they're having an affair?

What? My goodness. That's not true.

He was just talking nonsense.

It's not nonsense.

There seems to be something fishy going on.

Mr. Ma, where is this place?

There's a cafe next to the veterinary clinic...

My goodness. You clueless punk.

I think I should call Mr. Park and give him a heads up.

Hey, Yongpil.

You shouldn't do this for social justice.

You silly.

What if we end up breaking up a family?

That's not our fault.

It's Mr. Park's fault for having an affair.

What?

So it's true that they were together.

Yeonsil.

Why were you staring at her so fondly?

Have you been seeing her without telling me?

Are you having an affair with Anna Kim?

What are you talking about?

Then why else would you see her?

You're not going to the States.

I met her to talk about Dandan.

About Dandan? What about her?

Let's not do this on the street. We'll talk at home.

What?

Dandan is going to the US with Ms. Kim next week?

Yes.

So I met with Ms. Kim to discuss the matter.

Then you should've told me so.

Why did you not tell me

when my daughter is leaving next week?

Do you even consider me your wife?

It was decided at the last minute.

I was going to tell you once things were settled.

By the way, what's all the rush?

I mean, this is so sudden.

It's not like she's going to Jeju Island.

If Dandan stays here,

she won't be able to get over Chairman Lee.

And I heard Ms. Kim would go back to the US.

So I met her and asked for a favor.

So Dad, did Dandan say she would go?

Yes, she did.

She said she would never break up with Chairman Lee.

And now she's willing to leave?

I told her to go.

I told her to spend three years

studying and working in America.

If she still can't bring herself to move on,

I will reconsider her relationship with him.

That's why...

I'm grateful to that lady.

She willingly agreed to take Dandan with her.

I know.

How could you say something so silly, Yeonsil?

What do you take Soochul for?

What? An affair?

You silly thing.

Soochul would never cheat on you.

If you had told me sooner,

I wouldn't have gotten the wrong idea.

Mr. Ma Dongpil told me something strange.

That man's horrible.

He's just silly and reckless.

His older brother seems like a decent guy.

If you want to break up with Soochul,

you should live with him instead.

Mom!

Dandan must be busy getting ready to move abroad.

- Why isn't she coming home yet? / - Right.

She hasn't been able to tell the kids yet.

She will move out right after talking to the kids.

They seem to like Dandan a lot.

She must be sad to leave them behind.

I just can't bring myself

to tell the kids that I'm quitting.

Can we wait

until you find my replacement?

I'll talk to the kids.

I think I should be the one to tell them, not you.

Okay. I get it.

Sechan.

Sejong.

Ms. Park and I

decided to break up.

So Ms. Park is going to quit.

You can't ask her to stay this time, okay?

Because she's going to the US with Anna next week.

We should let her go

so she can have a better future, okay?

I'll tell Jaeni about this later.

She doesn't know about me and Ms. Park.

So I'll just tell her that Ms. Park is quitting.

Do you know what I mean?

You and Ms. Park are breaking up

because Mr. Park disapproves of you, right?

This is ridiculous.

Sechan.

No one can live alone.

Sechan, you also live with me,

your sister, and Sejong.

Ms. Park has a loving family.

A family is the greatest safety net anyone can have.

So if your family disapproves of something,

you can't just go against them

no matter how much you want it.

Sechan and Sejong, I know how much you love Ms. Park.

I'm so sorry that I have to tell you this.

Why are you sorry?

This isn't your fault.

Ms. Park once said that

those who meet eventually say goodbye.

That's how it works.

Dad, it's not your fault. It's okay.

Yes?

Sechan. Sejong.

Ms. Park.

Dad just told us everything.

He told us you're leaving us.

Ms. Park. Are you really going to the US?

Sechan. Sejong.

I'm sorry.

I'm really sorry.

Don't be.

We're still young, but we understood what Dad said.

So you don't have to be sorry.

Ms. Park, be happy in America.

Thank you, Sechan, Sejong.

Ms. Park...

Sechan. Sejong.

I will come back in three years.

Until then, stay healthy and happy.

Are you quitting?

Is that why you're packing?

Jaeni, let me explain.

How can you quit just like that?

I didn't know you were this irresponsible.

I'm so disappointed!

Jaeni.

Can we talk?

I don't want to talk to you.

Jaeni.

I was given the chance to go to the US with Ms. Kim.

That's why I'm quitting.

I had no time to tell you because it was too sudden.

I'm really sorry, Jaeni.

You said you'd stay until March.

How can you break that promise?

I don't want to see your face. Get out of my room!

You don't know what's going on, so stop this!

Ms. Park likes us so much!

She's doing this for a reason.

A reason? What reason could there be?

Well, there is a reason!

So stop breaking Ms. Park's heart!

Just tell me already.

Sechan. Don't do it.

Ms. Park. Tell me.

What's the reason?

No, Jaeni.

My plans were just brought forward.

I'm really sorry, Jaeni. I really am.

What is wrong with you?

Even if you can't make Ms. Park happy,

at least don't make her sad!

How do you think she feels, having to leave us?

Yes?

Jaeni.

Ms. Park.

You must have a good enough reason for doing this.

I'm sorry for being a brat.

It wasn't because I hated you.

I don't want to say goodbye,

and you're leaving so suddenly and so soon.

I yelled because I felt so sad.

I guess I'm less mature than Sechan and Sejong.

I'm so sorry, Ms. Park.

No, Jaeni. I should apologize.

Look after Sechan and Sejong,

and take good care of yourself as well.

I know you can do a good job, Jaeni.

- Ms. Park. / - Ms. Park.

Ms. Park.

Ms. Park...

Yes?

My gosh. What brings you to my room?

Ms. Wang, thank you for everything.

I won't be working here after this week.

My goodness.

You're resigning? Is that true?

Yes. I'm going to the US next week.

The US?

Why there, all of a sudden?

Is Youngguk paying for whatever this is?

No.

I got a job at Ms. Kim's company,

so I'm leaving with her.

Oh, Ms. Kim...

Then,

what about you and Youngguk?

Is it over? Did you break up?

Yes.

My gosh. That's really... Good thinking!

I'm glad you did.

You and Youngguk are a poor match.

You did the right thing.

This is right and just.

You're young and smart enough to get the message.

You'll do great in the States with that brain of yours.

Go and achieve the American dream.

Meet someone your age,

get married, and have kids.

I'll be going.

Okay. Go ahead.

How satisfying.

I feel so much better.

My goodness...

What's this, Ms. Park?

Is it a farewell gift?

Thank you so much for helping me

and looking out for me on my side.

Thank you.

I liked having you to rely on.

I'm sad you're leaving.

But what's with this sudden plan on going to the US?

Whom are you going with?

I found a job at Ms. Kim's company,

so I'm leaving with her next week.

Oh, really? That's great.

Ms. Kim is a really nice person.

Yes. She really is.

She cares for me like I'm her daughter.

I bet she cares for you even more

because she doesn't have a family.

The helper before me said that

she moved to the US alone at an early age

and went through so much to find success.

She almost died in a car crash.

Her face was badly hurt,

and she got over ten reconstructive operations.

Reconstructive operations?

Really?

You saw it too.

When the chairman became 22,

he didn't recognize Ms. Kim and yelled at her to leave.

Oh, that's why.

I found it strange at the time.

I didn't know what the circumstances were.

Still, isn't it great that she made it?

Ms. Park.

Moving to the US with Ms. Kim

might be better for you if you consider your future.

You made the right decision.

Ms. Park.

It depends on how you think.

Forget what happened here

and be happy in the US.

I will.

Thank you.

What?

You want to go on a farewell trip?

Ms. Park went through so much because of us.

We can't let her go like this.

Tomorrow is Friday.

We can all go to the vacation home,

enjoy fishing, play games,

and say goodbye over a barbecue.

I'm not so sure.

Dad. You need to say yes

so Ms. Park can join us without feeling uncomfortable.

Dad, we want to make some final memories with Ms. Park.

Dad, please. Say yes.

All right, fine. We'll go on a farewell trip.

- Nice. / - Yes!

You agreed, right?

Then we'll ask Ms. Park.

Sure.

- Nice. / - It's going to be fun.

Really? Your dad agreed to it?

- Yes. / - Yes!

We can't possibly say goodbye just like this.

- Exactly. / - She's right.

Please?

Sure thing.

We'll go on this trip.

We'll play games, eat delicious food,

and take lots of photos.

It will be a blast.

- Yes! / - Nice!

It sounds like fun.
