Episode 18

The two of you should get married.

Get married? Did you just say, "get married"?!

It's good to get married.

Ji Eun, do you want to marry me? Do you want to get married?!

Would you excuse us?

I have something to say to the Chairman privately.

I will call you later.

It seems he has something to say to me. You're excused.

The Chairman will live a long time.

You have such a strong heart.

How far are you going to take this?!

How far into a corner are you going to push me?

As long as I live. Forever.

Let's go.

The reason I'm not raising my voice is because I'm ashamed to be your son.

Let's talk outside.

Chairman, did you forget that you told me that a deal acquired from a weakness isn't a deal?

It sounds like something you've always told me.

If I marry Ji Eun, do you think that will cleanse your sins?

I will repay them. I will repay everything to her.

I'll welcome her into our family and treat her with my remorse.

I can repay them as I live.

How are you going to repay her?

By putting some stinking money in her hand?

Jeong Min,

can't you just cover this up? Can't you forgive me?

I can't. I won't.

How can you make a deal using your son?

How can you think of using your son?

Chairman, are you really my father?

I asked if I was really your son!

Thanks to you, I have to live as a coward for the rest of my life.

I'm sorry.

It seems like a lame excuse now,

but had I not won the defense department bidding then, Seolin probably wouldn't exist now.

I couldn't bear to see Seolin, which was like a child to me, go down.

Over the defense department bidding,

I competed with him.

We were at a great disadvantage.

Only until the bidding was over,

I wanted to keep him in the hospital for a while.

I couldn't imagine that such an accident would happen.

I had no idea he would leave like that.

I'm begging you. Can you please let it go just this once?

Can you please close your eyes just this once?

Due to the guilt of sending my friend away like that,

I've had to take tranquilizers forever.

So this is how it was. The things that woman should've enjoyed,

I took it away.

You should've paid for your sins back then.

If you had done it, then I wouldn't have fallen in love with her.

But it's too late now.

Everything is over.

- Jeong Min. - Don't call my name.

Your son, Seo Jeong Min, has died now.

After all, you have decided my fate.

I will never see you again.

I will never see you again.

He approved of the marriage? Why didn't you tell me you met with Jeong Min's father?

What's with that expression for a person who just got a marriage blessing?

That's not it.

Are you embarrassed?

See that, wench? What did I tell you?

I said there is no child who can't defeat their parents.

Your father must've helped you from up above.

You should've told him your father was his fellow alumnus in the first place, idiot.

Then you wouldn't have suffered so much.

It's a problem that you never listen to me.

Mom, does marrying Jeong Min make you that happy?

Of course! Why are you asking the obvious?

Do you know why I want you and Jeong Min to get together so badly?

After your father left, we've lived like this.

But you and Jeong Min have similar upbringings.

Isn't it called married life?

Do you know why it's called married life?

You eat together and sleep together. When you open your eyes, whether you hate him or not,

you need to see each other everyday. No matter how much you love each other,

there will be many incidents you'll clash over and have hurt feelings over.

So one side must always know how to lose.

But Se Hoon always wanted to win.

Jeong Min will lose to you.

Do you think I am pushing you to him because he's rich?

But I heard that Jeong Min's mom is his stepmom?

Yes.

How is she?

- What do you mean? - Is she prettier than me?

No.

From her voice, she sounds like a type of person acting very elegantly.

Since she's the lady in a filthy rich family, she'll show up very flashy.

But what should I wear? I don't like to be looked down upon.

I should take a look at my wardrobe.

Get married? Did you just say, "get married"?

Marriage is good.

Will you marry me Ji Eun? Do you want to marry me?!

I promise. I promise on that sky.

The woman named Lee Ji Eun, I will put her on a pedestal and treat her above me like the sky until my dying day.

♫ ​In the dark sky, the glittering glow of the stars tells me ♫

♫ That if I do not do it now, I can never do it. ♫

♫ The yellow stars caress me and shout your name ♫

♫ In silence, the hidden memories awaken me ♫

What will become of us?

What do I do now?

Should I elope with you and hide?

Will we be happy if we hide well?

I have no courage to tell her this enormous truth.

I'll probably lose her now, right?

If I lose you, then how do I live?

♫ The yellow stars caress me and shout your name ♫

♫ In silence, the hidden memories awaken me ♫

♫ When you have never needed anyone. ♫

♫ And I've just tried to be the man you need. ♫

♫ In silence, the hidden memories awaken me ♫ Hey!

Get up, bastard. Get up, bastard!

♫ Never needed anyone. ♫

♫ And I've just tried to be the man you need ♫

♫ In silence, the hidden memories awaken me ♫

♫ When you have never needed anyone. ♫

♫ And I've just tried to be the man you need ♫

♫ Now love and hate, I have sent them far away ♫

Do you really think the simple technology will work in the market?

Are you worried because Seo Jeong Min is adamantly against it?

As Seo Jeong Min said, the risk can be big.

What if you get blamed for everything later?

You just need to be one step ahead. If you are two steps ahead, that can bring disaster.

Don't worry. I am confident.

Okay. Of course you got this.

Yeah. Yes, I am Kim Ho Jin.

Seocho Police Station?

Did you come to gloat?

Let's talk.

I have nothing to say or to hear from you.

Let's have a drink.

Us?

Don't you know that I hate you?

I don't hate you, Seo Jeong Min.

So what?

I'll continue to hate you. So keep that in mind.

Isn't it a good feeling to be friendly to your opponent?

We need to cooperate for Seolin.

You're skipping work and misbehaving, you must have a reason—

Don't worry about my business.

You are...

a really unpleasant human being.

Aren't you asleep?

Despite giving them permission to marry, you're not happy with it?

Is it really hard for you to accept Lee Jin Eun as your daughter-in-law?

Then take it back.

What's the big deal taking it back?

This is so unlike you losing sleep over it and sighing.

It's not like that.

But Honey, let's hear the reason you suddenly changed your mind.

Honey!

Ah, you told me to give them permission!

Why blame me when you're the one who caved in to your son's pressure?

How can you be whipped around by Jeong Min?

Every day, you're all talk.

You're always losing to Jeong Min.

Listen to you? What's to win or lose?

Between a father and son...

Just as, the way he's born, as he's lacking,

accepting as is, that's the relationship between parent and child.

That's why we call that a relationship made in heaven.

Don't provoke Jeong Min for awhile.

- I don't provoke him unless he provokes me first! - Shut up!

- Just don't talk back— Aigoo. - Honey.

Go get my blood pressure medicine.

Why? Is your blood pressure rising again?

You can't even once just say "yes" and do it when I ask something.

How can I live with no one listening to me even in my own home?

Just go get me some water!

Okay, Honey.

♫ How hard has my life been? How hard have I tried to forget you? ♫

♫ In front of you, I have hidden it deep inside of me. ♫

♫ Since that day when I walked away, How has it been for me? ♫

♫ If you are also like me, you will understand. ♫

♫ It was hard to bear without any breathing space. ♫

A measly president on a payroll who can be fired overnight.

What's the big deal about that position?

I never gave much thought to beating someone until now.

Just understand that you made me this way.

You are...

a really unpleasant human being.

Did you spend the night here?

You might damage your health.

l won't die from working hard.

Would you give me a cup of coffee?

Yes.

We've been energized since you came on board.

You can't ask for a raise.

Instead, there will be a bonus once the project is completed.

I'll bring your coffee.

Vice President didn't come to work again.

I called you because I was frustrated.

Just think of it as an old man's grumblings

and hear me out, OK?

Yes, Chairman. Go ahead and tell me.

To fathers,

problems with their sons are like life's homework.

It makes you want to fight to the death.

That's why you get greedy

and tie down the kid who's kicking around like a pony

and even try to train him.

Did something happen with Vice President Seo?

Nothing much.

We had an argument.

He doesn't even show up to work these days.

He seems intent on going back to the way he was.

Hence, I am asking you to give him a little jolt.

That kid feeling competitiveness and likeness simultaneously toward any person,

I've never seen aside from you.

Yeah. I understand, Chairman.

I am envious of Vice President Seo.

You are like my son to me, too.

If I have you and that kid both on my sides,

I feel assured as if I have the whole world.

Think of him as your little brother and be lenient.

Since I already gave him permission to marry Lee Ji Eun,

he'll probably calm his rebellious feelings and clean up his act now.

You don't look so good. Why don't you go home and get some rest?

I am fine.

Take it. It's okay.

Yeah. This is Jang Se Hoon.

It's me.

What's the occasion?

I want to see you because I have something to tell you,

not because I want to see you.

Just come to the coffee shop by my house!

My Ji Eun's mate was Mr. Seo in the first place and not you, punk.

You know

that woman is my first and last love, right?

You know that, don't you, Jeong In?

What do I need to do?

What would you do if it were you?

I should let her go, right?

Since I don't have the choice...

I never knew that I was this cowardly.

I don't think I have anywhere to hide anymore.

Jeong In. I'll never forgive my father even in my death.

I think this is the last time I'll come to see you.

Stay well. I'll see you later.

I know it's useless to say this now.

But do you know why I hated you so much?

Parents with daughters

always raise them feeling on guard.

Especially my Ji Eun, I raised her so preciously.

Yet you showed up from nowhere

and injured my Ji Eun.

If you had been a proper person, you shouldn't have dated Ji Eun even when she clung to you.

I was against you not only because you were a poor self-supporting student.

Although I admit you are smart,

but we don't live with our brains alone.

You may call it pride, but it's brazen arrogance.

I really didn't like you acting so smartly and arrogantly and all that.

You need to know when to be humble in front of elders and go along.

And who could break your stubbornness?

I know my daughter Ji Eun can't handle your personality.

Am I wrong?

The more I think about it, the more I think it's an ill-fated relationship.

An ill-fated relationship. If you weren't entangled with Ji Eun,

I don't think her father would ever have gone that way.

Now, we only have a wedding date left to set for Mr. Seo and Ji Eun.

I'm telling you clearly once more: you take the matter between you and Ji Eun to your grave.

If by chance this wedding breaks up, I won't leave you alone.

Jeong Min.

Do you know how dumbfounded I am?

What's your reason?

You must have a reason to ask to break up.

I told you. I've come to dislike you.

Do you take me for a fool?

I couldn't reach you for awhile, and the Chairman calls me suddenly and gives me permission to marry you.

Yet you've come to dislike me today?

Just how should I accept this?

Why can't you understand?

It's no fun now that my father gave me permission.

So let's end it.

If you've really come to dislike me, I have no intention of begging you to change your mind.

But something must have happened.

You can't even make eye contact now.

Tell me what's going on.

What else do I need to tell you when I've come to dislike you?

I've... come to dislike you.

So this is the kind of person you were?

That's right! I was this type of punk in the first place.

A coward and a bad jerk.

You didn't know?

Just think of it as you having been played by a crazy jerk.

Jeong Min.

I hate the clinging type.

A person's feelings can change to like or dislike in a moment.

At any moment.

We should never have met.

I dreamed of a world with you.

With you beside me, I was confident.

But how can I look at you and smile?

How can I dare... love you?

I'll probably be punished for it.

Get up.

Seo Jeong Min. If you are a man, then be a man.

Keep your word that you spat out!

You said you'd change for her.

If you love her, then you need to keep your word.

Do you love her that much? You love Lee Ji Eun that much?

Then you take her and live with her.

- Why don't you take her and live with her? - Seo Jeong Min!

Don't turn your back on her now.

Please don't make her cry.

You are the only one who can make... Lee Ji Eun happy.

If I am the problem, I'll disappear.

I guess I can think about it again since you are begging.

I've... come to dislike you.

It's no fun now that my father gave me permission.

Just think of it as you having been played by a crazy jerk.

Are you awake? We have vegetable porridge for breakfast. Is it okay?

Do you want coffee first?

Okay.

When did you get home?

What's to come or go from my own home?

Stop playing around and go take a shower first.

You might be late for work.

Where did you sleep? Why didn't you come home?

Are you having an affair behind my back?

Mi Ran. Get a hold of yourself!

Who are you? W-who are you?

Where is my Will?

Will! Will!

Where's Will?

Will!

Will! Will!

Mi Ran!

Will. Where have you been?

This is Jang Se Hoon.

What the occasion?

I think you need to come back.

I think Mi Ran is...

Do you think I'm insane, too?

I'm not insane yet.

Going insane doesn't happen that easily.

Do you think I'll release you that easily?

You won't live to your fully allotted lifespan.

Face head-on! Right, this is the only way.

If I confess the truth, will they kill me or something?

I shouldn't have used Ho Jin. It only backfired on me with an attorney and all...

Where are you going?

Wow, you startled me.

I came to beg PD Nam for forgiveness.

I am going to beg forgiveness for lying all this time, and propose to her properly.

Ah, right. You do know that PD Nam has a personality, right?

If she finds out that you and I colluded in deceiving her all this time,

you may get killed for it, so make sure you dodge her.

You naive thing...

That's why Bok Ja is not interested in you.

An easy man like you doesn't arouse her fighting spirit.

Hey! Hey, let me come with you.

Ah, you kid, really?

Yeah. I'll be your support.

Ah, this is helping me.

Fine. Let's go!

But why are you holding that?

Ah, this? You know that PD Nam likes that damn...

Ah, that damn Jjangu's food. So I bought some.

What?

For some reason, I think foreshadowing was set up.

Foreshadowing...

It's no fun if he confesses so easily.

Why aren't you saying anything?

Are you so furious that you're speechless?

The fact is because Yeo Jin likes you,

I got involved in this to help out.

But I am a bit dumbfounded hearing you like me.

So I thought coming clean about now

was better.

It's not like you are

going to sue me for fraud... are you?

I will.

I'll be sure to put money in your prison account.

Forget it. It's not your fault anyway.

It's all Yeo Jin's prank.

Excuse me. I need to get ready for the taping.

Don't worry about it.

Okay.

Bok Ja!

Actually, I've been thinking a lot since you confessed your love to me.

I also know that Yeo Jin is pursuing you with all his might.

Fine. I've made up my mind.

I'll accept your love.

I think we can make a nice couple. Let's date officially!

What the heck? What do I do with this ajusshi?

Hold that thought, Sunbae.

About that time...

I didn't know you had an innocent side.

See? I knew you'd end up like dog food (that no one wants).

What to do, you poor thing?

Thank you.

The contract is sealed under the name of Lee Ji Eun.

I'll take care of registering it too.

Hold on to it for now.

President Choi.

I have a favor to ask.

I heard the Vice President and Lee Ji Eun were getting married.

- Who said that? - I heard it from Jeong Min while working for the Chairman's office.

How on earth did she seduce him?

I heard a rumor that she's divorced.

She must be talented.

Congratulations.

You'll invite us to your housewarming party after the wedding, won't you?

That sounds persuasive.

The test result shows a positive response,

and we are preparing from various angles for the samplings as well.

Okay. I'll give you my support, so you take care of it.

Chairman. You don't look so good. Why don't you go home early?

I think I should, too. My blood pressure keeps rising these days.

The Madam is out. Should I call her?

No, leave her be. Would you give me some water?

Let's talk before you leave.

Are you leaving like that despite my begging?

Jeong Min!

You can't give me five minutes?

You can't even give your father five minutes?

♫ By chance did we know now? ♫

♫ Those many memories we believed were beautiful ♫

I dreamed of a world with you. ♫ Like the falling raindrops Like the blowing snowflakes ♫

With you beside me, I was confident.

♫ That street gleaming through cloudy evening ♫

I promise. I promise to that sky.

The woman named Lee Ji Eun, I'll put her on a pedestal

and above me like the sky until my dying day.

And no matter what, [I am okay with you loving me]

I'll be with you forever.

When I first saw you, I should've run away.

Sitting next to a nice person like you,

I'm really not sure if that is okay.

If we hide well,

will we be happy?

♫ I want to go back to you ♫

Take a look. This is the certified copy of Shin Yeong Textiles' corporate registration that you requested.

President. Isn't it a bit weird?

Even if they had a temporary financial difficulty, given the financial status of Shin Yeong Textiles at the time,

there was no reason at all for bankruptcy.

[CEO Lee Sang Bum, inaugurated 3/12/1991, registered 3/24/1991] [Director Lee Ji Eun, inaugurated 3/8/1994, registered 3/18/1991]

[Director Park Seung Jun, inaugurated 3/8/1991, registered 3/18/1991.]

You don't need to worry.

It's a temporary condition due to his depleted stamina.

He'll be fine after he rests for a few days.

Will you admit him?

How is he?

They said he's fine. It's because he drank so much.

I told Secretary Kim to have him hospitalized.

Aren't you going in?

Later.

What the heck happened with Jeong Min?

At the same time of CEO Lee Sang Bum's death,

if you really think about how Shin Yeong Textiles' financial credit deteriorated so quickly to bankruptcy,

then there are many questionable aspects.

You can't pull out it like that. You could hurt your vein. Sir!

Vice President!

What are you talking about?

You didn't know?

I think I heard vaguely that my name would be on the Board of Directors list.

But why do you ask?

I just want to know about the company's situation after your father's death.

Why? Why do you want to know?

What's wrong?

The thing is...

Let go of her hand.

You... don't deserve Lee Ji Eun.
