(Episode 86)
Ms. Kim,
I just requested a maternity test for you and me.
I'm so scared what the result will be.
I don't think the fear is just about
whether or not you're my mother.
If I am your daughter...
No, what if I'm not your daughter?
Why did you choose this life for yourself?
But I still really miss you.
Ms. Kim.
Welcome.
I have something to give you.
Okay. Take a seat.
Okay.
It's your money.
More accurately, it's bonds.
At first, I didn't even know what they were
as I'd never seen one before.
But I was told they're bearer bonds.
The bank gives you cash, no questions asked,
within the specified time, right?
I agonized a lot about bringing these to you.
I like money too just like everyone else.
Finders keepers, right?
Why didn't you just keep them?
I did think about it.
I thought about opening a salon
far away from Seoul and living a quiet life.
With this money, I'd be set for the rest of my life.
But?
But it wasn't easy.
$800,000 for the rest of my life...
What a blessing.
But...
It didn't seem right as my Inu and Injeong's lives
would be held hostage by it.
I'm sorry I couldn't bring these right away.
I agonized hundreds,
no, tens of thousands of times about
whether I should take these and flee
or give them to Inu since she wants them so badly.
I'm very sorry it took me this long, Ms. Kim.
Thank you.
Money is one thing,
but I didn't lose a friend.
I won't tell you to show Geunseop any mercy.
He must pay for what he's done.
But I'm worried about Inu.
I really don't know what's happened to her.
Her mother's this worried,
so she'll eventually come around.
I hope she does.
I'll make sure she does.
Who am I?
I'm a mother.
(Sanho Group Bond: $100,000)
A mother?
That's right.
There's nothing a mother wouldn't do for her child.
(Sanho Group Bond: $100,000)
Although it wasn't mine, I feel empty without it.
But it's something I had to do.
I did well. I did well.
It's a great relief, like losing a rotting tooth.
Anyway, do I have to find a new assistant?
I wish Dong would come back.
It's hard getting by on the cafe's hourly rate.
I have to make more to pay off my debt.
Whatever, whatever, whatever.
It'll work out somehow.
Hold it like this.
Ow, my back.
Huh? Why are you here during work hours?
Lunchtime is a while away.
I was in the area for work,
and I missed you.
Don't overexert yourself.
You look tired these days.
Hang on. Let's see.
I had the number for the oriental medicine shop.
Oriental medicine?
Huh? I want to put in an order for deer antlers.
You need some restorative medicine.
You take it first.
And then I will.
What is this? Your sudden maturity
is no fun.
Oh, right. Hey.
Look this over.
What is it?
It's an investment proposal from Genius.
I already looked at this.
What you read was President Hong's.
This is from the current CEO.
Seems the two are at war.
Genius' new CEO?
Did Mr. Byeon bring this to you?
Why? You're not interested?
You know what Mr. Byeon has done,
so why do you keep him around?
I told you.
As long as I keep my head on straight,
I can use others to my advantage.
Nevertheless, I can't forgive him.
And aren't we going to work with President Hong?
Have you met him?
He hasn't called yet.
Business is a race against the clock,
so what's he weighing that he hasn't called?
Money and time is everything to an investor.
Hello.
Ms. Kim's inside, right?
Ms. Gil.
Good thing I ran into you.
We need to talk.
This is confirmation of Dr. Jeong's trial date.
Give it to Ms. Kim.
How long will you hover around Ms. Kim?
I must see Dr. Jeong's matter through.
It won't be much longer.
It's not just Dr. Jeong's matter.
Do you mean Genius' investment proposal?
Is that how you'll stay by Ms. Kim's side?
I work for Genius.
I'm just doing my job.
You're not the only lawyer at Genius.
I'll put in a formal request to the company
for a change of lawyer.
Can't I stay by Ms. Kim's side this way?
Can't I make up for the emotional anguish
I caused you and Ms. Kim?
Have you forgotten how you started things with me
and how you behaved after
Ms. Kim collapsed?
I don't know what trick you pulled
to get out of going on trial with Dr. Jeong,
but you and Dr. Jeong are both the same in my eyes.
An investment proposal despite everything?
Don't you think you're being just like Dr. Jeong?
The proposal's normal and legal.
How can you liken me to Dr. Jeong?
President Hong sent his first,
and we're reviewing it favorably.
That's a legit reason?
Business may be cutthroat,
but it involves people.
And there's loyalty among people.
Loyalty? Loyalty for whom?
Have you met President Hong?
Why do you ask?
He wants an investment
but can't even appear before you.
So why must you wait for him?
Bringing faster and greater gains
to the investor is loyalty.
Fine. You live by that,
and I'll live by my own principles.
You said you wanted to make things up to us?
If you really want to do that,
get out of our lives.
I'm sorry about yesterday.
Something urgent came up.
No matter how urgent, you couldn't even call?
I waited for over an hour.
I didn't ask you to dinner.
You're the one who invited me.
I know. I'm very sorry.
Whatever.
Can't we reschedule?
I have something to ask you.
Forget about it.
But if you insist, fine.
I'll give you another chance.
Thank you.
Hi.
What's going on?
I'll tell you later.
I'll text you.
But Mr. Hong...
He says he must speak with me,
but I don't know what about.
Speak with you?
I said to tell me here,
but he insisted we talk over dinner.
I wonder what it is.
What should I do?
That's between Mr. Hong and you.
Do what you will.
Really?
Oh. We have to hand all these out today.
We're backed up because
you weren't here yesterday.
Bring the rest.
What is it that he asked her to dinner?
What? There's no toothbrush?
Did she hide it?
Like that will stop me.
This won't do.
I'll have to pluck some off her head.
Haengja. Haengja's inside, right?
Oh, she's with someone right now.
Really? Who?
Is it that scumbag Byeon again?
He came by in the morning.
Right now, she's with Mr. Hong Seok.
Hong Seok?
Eunjo's boyfriend Hong Seok?
Yes.
What does she have to say to him?
Are they setting the wedding date?
Or she wants them to break up.
Right. That would make more sense.
No way. Ms. Kim really likes Mr. Hong.
She likes him?
Of course. And Eunjo loves him too.
Really?
I can't hear a peep when I do that.
She's something else.
You haven't contacted Eunjo yet.
What are you thinking?
Don't be too trusting of an investor.
Investors are people chasing high returns.
There's something I must tell you first.
What is it?
It's about my mother.
About Chairwoman Gu Aesuk?
Do you remember now?
Whether or not I remember,
that was between your mother and me.
I must apologize to you first on my mom's behalf.
Apologize?
Apologize?
I only did what I had to, Ms. Kim.
The apology should've come from the wrongdoer.
Ms. Kim...
What does this mean?
So that handsome good-for-nothing was actually
Hong Seokpyo, the son of Genius' founder Gu Aesuk?
So he's a second-generation tycoon.
But of course. I should have known.
I don't need to pluck her hair.
So it's true. Eunjo is her daughter.
Unbelievable.
I don't believe this.
Hello, we're from the Beauty Center.
We're from the Beauty Center.
Please take a look.
Hello.
Hello.
There's a promo event, so please come.
Why is she working so hard?
Because the Center will be hers soon, right?
Fine. You take the Center.
I'm going to get something bigger.
Gil Eunjo speaking.
Oh, okay. We'll do that.
Yes, okay.
Who was that?
It was Ms. Seol Miryeong's manager.
They like the clubber look
but want some improvements.
Why are they so demanding?
Just forget about it.
They'll drive us like slaves
but then pick their own look.
We should still do our best.
Suit yourself.
Hey, is it fun going to clubs?
Pardon?
I've been to a few,
but I've never been a to fancy, members-only club.
It's no different from a regular night club.
Give me a break.
I hear children of business magnates
and celebrities go to such clubs.
All I did was dance, so I don't know.
Heard security's very tight at those places.
Someone I know lost a necklace at one
but found it in a week.
It's not like that.
I lost an accessory too but never
found it.
So what happened?
What do you mean? That was it.
How did you lose it?
You see...
It must've fallen off while I was dancing.
You're so hard on me.
But then again, I'm reaping what I sowed.
I'm to blame, not you.
What are you talking about?
I thought we had bonded a bit.
Never mind, given what I've done.
It wasn't a big deal.
It happened while I was helping some guy.
That's all.
What guy?
No. This is plenty.
We're talking more than we used to,
aren't we?
Come in.
This is the 7-iron,
and you need to sign off on these right away.
And your mail.
Most of them are invitations.
Leave the golf club there.
I need to sign off on these right away?
The CEO's office wants them ASAP.
These aren't that urgent.
I'll talk to President Kim myself,
so leave them here.
Okay.
Um, Director Gu.
Do you have something to say?
About President Hong's derma project...
Can anyone invest in it?
If that were possible, are you interested?
Not with money.
I want to invest in it by doing what I can.
Like what?
I can make marketing materials
and take them to clients,
find a good designer for the logo...
I think there's a lot I could do.
Ms. Jeong, you're treading in dangerous waters.
You are an employee of Genius.
Many staffers expected the venture would be huge.
It's unrelated to anything the CEO office is doing,
but isn't there a chance?
I'm your assistant.
I also want to help you.
You want to help me?
Why do you think I have anything to do with it?
I know both you and Mr. Gu Chungseo
are related to President Hong.
Do you know President Hong?
Of course I do.
This is my fourth year at Genius.
How can I not know the former CEO?
Have you ever met him?
I don't know him in person.
I just know him as the faceless CEO.
Fine.
I'll think about how you can help
President Hong and me.
Thank you, Ms. Gu.
We're starting a 10-minute flash sale.
Just $20 for
a $50 pack of Korean beef ribs.
- One pack per person? / - $20 for beef ribs?
Come on. Hurry.
You'll regret it if you don't get it.
One per person. One per person.
Settle down. Only one pack per person.
It's only one pack per person. One pack.
I grabbed it first. What are you doing?
Give me a break. I got it first.
I grabbed it first. What's wrong with you?
- How dare you? / - It's so slippery.
Huh? Dong!
Dong, Dong, Dong, Dong!
Hey. Hey, stop right there!
- That was hilarious. / - I'm out of breath.
Oh, right.
Here it is. Your ribs.
Let's split it.
Don't bother. It's not a lot to begin with.
At least one family should enjoy it.
- Are you sure? / - Of course.
Oh, no. I thought I had two $10 bills.
1, 2, 3.
Oh, no. I'm short $1.
It's fine, it's fine, it's fine.
I feel bad.
Can you afford to close the salon and go shopping?
I don't get many customers these days.
People are merciless.
They also forget easily too.
It'll get better in time.
Things seem to be going well for you.
When's the wedding?
Wedding, my foot.
He's penniless, without a single room to his name,
so what wedding?
How is it we always end up talking about money
despite the horrible ordeal we went through?
Probably because it's something we need to get by.
That's true.
Enjoy the ribs.
It'll be my turn if there's another flash sale.
Okay.
Thank you for today.
Don't mention it.
Dong.
Huh? What is it?
I just wanted to say bye.
Right. Bye to you too.
Take care.
Can't you come back?
Why is that so hard for me to say?
Are you throwing a feast?
Pardon?
I'm inviting people over for dinner.
Ribs, glass noodles,
seafood salad, sweet and sour pork, sashimi...
Who's making all this?
Who else? I will.
You can really make all this?
I'll order the sweet and sour pork and seafood salad
and get the sashimi from a seafood market.
I'll just have to make the ribs and glass noodles.
Must be important guests.
Of course. Very important guests.
I should have done this sooner,
but it's a long story.
You look tired.
Would you like jujube tea?
Thank you.
What's this?
I'm inviting people over this weekend,
so clean the house.
People won't have to create a path
through your filth, right?
What people?
Mi-ae and Busik,
you, me, and Seokpyo.
Seokpyo?
Will he come?
I'll have to make him.
It'll be a family dinner and engagement party.
Suit yourself.
Engagement party?
Okay.
Why are you moping in here?
I must still have a long way to go.
What do you mean?
I don't know people.
I don't know to what extent I can trust someone
or whom I should trust.
Why are you being like this again?
I was taught not to trust anyone,
so I never learned to trust someone.
Don't look at me with such pity.
At least one thing I know for sure is that
I have nowhere left to hide.
You'll tell Ms. Gil who you are?
Yes.
Ms. Gil will understand.
Hello?
This is Human Lab.
You asked for a DNA test, right?
Yes, I did.
Okay.
I'll be right there.
What are you doing there?
You didn't even acknowledge me.
Is Eunjo Changsu's daughter or not?
Just tell me that.
What is this nonsense again?
Have you forgotten? Eunjo was a foundling.
Foundling?
So that must've come back to you.
Haengja.
Hey, Haengja, this is so wrong.
What is it now?
Didn't you give birth to Eunjo?
And when my brother was still childless,
did you get her in the family as a foundling?
If Eunjo is Changsu's child,
fine, I can take it
because she's our flesh and blood.
But if you had her with someone else
but had my brother raise her,
then that's not right.
Watch what you say.
Don't spew nonsense you can't take back.
It's better to spit it out and regret it than
keep it bottled up and die of stress.
How can you say whatever you want to?
That's what I'm going to do.
If that's the case, pack up
and go back home.
Fine. I was wondering why that hadn't come up.
What will you do after sending me to the States?
Do you think I'll leave under the circumstances?
What circumstances?
Myeongjo might be left high and dry.
Turns out Eunjo wasn't the foundling.
Our Myeongjo was.
You got your daughter into our family and
took over my sister-in-law's place when she died,
even being lauded for raising someone else's kids.
You're something else.
Is that how little you've thought of me?
Why? Are you scared the world will find out?
Don't be fooled.
Secrets never remain secrets.
Why in the world are you so angry?
Do you not know?
I don't.
I'd been grateful to you solely for
raising Myeongjo so well.
But it was a sham.
I feel sorry for my brother and sister-in-law
who were deceived for so long.
It infuriates me!
I told you.
Both Eunjo and Myeongjo are my kids.
That's how it's been,
and how it will be.
So what's the problem?
Why are you prying into this now?
It will only hurt the kids!
The kids? They know.
What?
I told them everything.
Gil Eunjeong!
They need to know where they came from!
Is that what you told the kids?
Don't pretend to care about them.
Be truthful if you really do care!
Why can't you admit it?
Why can't you admit to what's been revealed already?
You'll avoid this?
I'm getting a DNA test done tomorrow.
They can have the result in a few hours,
so let's see how long you can avoid this.
(Medical Record: Gil Eunjo - Kidney transplant)
(Date of surgery: November 11, 2006)
(Medical Record: Kim Haengja - Kidney donor)
(Date of surgery: January 20, 2007)
Eunjo, I have something to tell you.
Are you free?
Where?
Okay. I'll head over.
Eunjo.
I asked for a maternity test,
and this is the result.
I haven't looked at it yet.
What do you have to tell me urgently?
I'll tell you after we look at this.
You need this, right?
Is this authoritative?
So when will that be?
You must deal with the consequences of kissing me.
Should we date?
Sure. What?
Inu keeps getting weirder.
Will you make her give up or not?
Come out here!
President Hong Seokpyo was here?
There was someone I wanted to meet,
someone I wanted to thank if I ever met her.
You said it had a story. What is it?
