(Episode 47)
Haengja, our garden is emptier than I expected.
Let's plant a persimmon tree when we move.
Wait.
Won't blinds be better than curtains?
They're more chic.
I'm so happy.
You racked up a huge bill.
What happened?
Didn't you give it to me to use?
I didn't go over the limit though.
Reckless?
One must spend to keep up appearances.
It looks like the kids will be all set,
but his spending is a problem.
Should I give him another chance?
Excuse me. I'd like to see that.
This is it.
I need something like this to keep up appearances.
Miss. I'll take this.
Yes, sir.
Oh. I'll pay cash.
Yes, sir.
It's $10,000.
Pay back the loan shark.
Also, here's a debit card.
It has a generous balance,
so use it to your heart's content.
What's going on all of a sudden?
I doubt this is from Ms. Kim.
I told you to trust me.
Just trust me and do as I say.
You're sure this is okay, right?
I'm Jung Geunseop.
I trust you, Dad.
As you should.
There are many more surprises to come.
Why?
Do you have a problem repaying the loan?
This is really from your dad?
Yes.
Where did that jerk find this kind of money?
He said we needn't worry about using it.
Repay the loan quickly.
I don't want to see those people again.
I can't help but worry.
You don't suppose it's dirty money, do you?
This is what you wanted,
so why the sudden guilty conscience?
Are you at it again?
What did I do?
It's clear as day where that money came from.
So why won't anyone speak up?
Does that make you feel less guilty?
It beats letting those thugs wreck our house.
If it nags at us, we can work hard and pay it back.
It's our money, so why pay it back?
He gave it to us because we deserved it.
Our money?
You have a warped view of what's ours.
It's Dad's money.
Gil Eunjo's not her daughter but spends her money,
so why can't we use this?
Mom!
You can object to this after we solve
our immediate problem.
Do you feel inferior to Gil Eunjo?
What?
You take issue with her at every turn.
I can't stand how she acts
as if Ms. Kim's money is hers
even though she's not even her real daughter.
What? Being born into a rich family is what?
If I'd known,
I wouldn't have let her talk down to me.
She does have an inferiority complex.
Her parentage is their private matter.
Right! That's it. That is it.
You're sure Ms. Kim isn't Gil Eunjo's birth mom?
Duh.
Don't even bring her up.
So she's not Gil Myeongjo's birth mom either.
What are you getting at?
Ms. Kim and Myeongjo aren't blood relations,
so I can be with Myeongjo.
You're way too obsessive.
Obsessive?
Did you just say I'm obsessive?
If I'm obsessive, what about you?
I'm obsessive but you're in love?
So what are you going to do?
You don't even really know Gil Myeongjo.
You want him because he's off limits.
You might be disappointed once you date him.
Snap out of it.
So I'm going to give it go. That way,
I won't have any regrets even if we break up.
Haengja. Haengja, take a look at this.
How's this?
Classic furniture for the new house.
Or... Oh. High gloss.
Simple is nice too.
What are you thinking about?
Huh? Oh... No, it's nothing.
What? What did you say?
What's worrying you?
You're adopting the kids.
You should be dancing with joy,
so why do you have such a long face?
One gets scared and uneasy
even when things work out too well.
Good grief. Rejoice if you're happy.
Why complicate matters?
Say... Dr. Jeong...
Why? Is he being fishy?
You find him suspicious too, right?
No. Never mind.
Let's go to bed.
Get the futons out.
I've been distracted by my friend who's visiting,
but I should go back to tailing him tomorrow.
Just leave this to me.
Don't waste your time.
Focus on learning the pawnshop business
instead of cajoling Min Yang and playing hooky.
It's always the pawnshop when you're stumped.
This is where we'll be moving.
We all went to see it today.
When are you moving?
Ms. Kim said it'd be another month or so.
I'm glad.
The change in surroundings will do you good.
I think so too.
But would it be okay if I moved?
Why?
Is there a problem?
Then we'll be farther apart.
Then stay at the old house.
Are you serious?
I'm kidding.
Oh, come on.
My goodness.
Let's see. Goodness me.
Let's see. I was...
That's right. That's right.
Haengja.
What brings you here this early?
You didn't hear me calling out to you?
Oh, you did?
I must not have heard as I was bundled up.
Did you have a good look at the new house?
Yes.
It's almost all done,
so you should be able to move soon.
It must've been tough staying at the cafe.
No. It wasn't tough at all.
Hang on, Dr. Jeong.
I tend to forget if I don't do things
right when I need to.
Just a moment.
Oh?
W-What's wrong?
I didn't take it out of the safe.
Is something wrong?
You see...
I don't know what you're looking for,
but look around here and there.
You seem to be forgetful these days.
Yes, that is true.
Then...
What? Did I leave this in here?
You found it?
Yes, I did, but...
Wow. I should keep my head on straight
or I could really mess up.
It happens at our age.
Yes, that's true, but...
The presentation at HQ yielded a similar result.
Our spokesperson Ms. Seol Miryeong
wants to wear your dress to the publishing party.
Really?
She said the dress was a perfect match for the book.
How did you know?
I'm curious too.
I said to imagine a fictitious publishing party,
so what happened?
I looked up Ms. Seol's schedule just in case,
and the publishing party was on it.
So I looked up the book and the author.
We gave your contact info. to Ms. Seol's stylists,
so join them when they call.
Me?
Go and learn.
This is a rare opportunity.
Yes, Director Gu.
Do you know why you were outperformed on this task?
No, I do not.
You lagged behind in interest and passion.
People call that capability.
You still have something to say
after texting with me all night?
All night?
Oh. Your idea for the presentation worked, Mr. Hong.
I'm impressed.
Hong Seok?
Okay.
Lunch is on me today.
See you at Pentagon in Cheongdam-dong,
okay?
Okay.
So she's carrying on with Hong Seok after Busik?
She said Pentagon, right?
Did you set up a meeting with Ms. Kim Haengja?
No. More importantly, Gongsin Bank called to say
they want to meet with you in person.
They did?
They see potential in your project
and will favorably review your investment proposal.
Thank goodness.
I want to see them as soon as possible.
Okay.
Oh. What should I do about Ms. Kim?
I'll go to the bank first.
Very well.
I hope Gongsin agrees to invest.
If it goes well, I'll convene the board next week.
Prepare for that in advance.
Yes, President Hong.
That's Gil Eunjo's aunt.
She was tailing Dad the other day too.
Dad,
Gil Eunjo's aunt is tailing you right now.
You know?
What's wrong with that family?
A man.
A man?
That's the surest way.
Based on what I've observed.
Ms. Gu Jonghui is lonely.
No way. She doesn't like men.
Pardon?
Do you mean... She likes women?
No, it's not that.
Anyway, she's so difficult and testy
that most men find it tough to handle her.
Even so, you can't
just leave your sister like that.
If your mother were alive, she'd arrange
blind dates so she wouldn't die a spinster.
Oh... Spinster...
Well, you see...
I've been moved by Ms. Gu as of late.
Turns out she's a walnut-type person.
Walnut?
She has a hard outer shell,
but inside, she's empty like a walnut.
And I'm going to crack her shell.
Oh. Then what about me?
Hmm... You are
like a persimmon.
You're soft and sweet inside and out.
Persimmon... Persimmon.
I like that.
That's why I like you.
Should we finish this conversation over lunch?
Okay, Chungseo.
I'm sorry I'm late.
Don't be. I came early.
We haven't ordered yet.
It was me.
Oh...
But I'm buying today.
You can settle the bill.
Very well.
I didn't know you were this suave.
Hurry up and eat.
Thank you.
I can't eat
if you keep staring at me like that.
Stop looking at me.
You're pretty even when you eat.
You know pickup lines like that?
You're a player, aren't you?
How many women have you used that line on?
Tell me.
Why are you laughing?
You're just like when I first met you.
It's reassuring you haven't changed.
This is the real you.
That's right.
I'm Gil Eunjo of Geumdong Market.
What's keeping him?
My lunch break is almost over.
- Busik. / - Did I keep you waiting long?
The trial took longer than expected.
Let's go in.
You must be here for lunch.
Enjoy then.
This place is very expensive.
Oh. I guess you paid for lunch, Eunjo.
It was Mr. Hong's treat
for my successful presentation.
You two enjoy your lunch too.
Why is she so full of herself?
Ultimately, she's got nothing going for her.
Did you call me here to show me that?
Why do this
when she always gets the better of you?
I'm angry too.
Must you put it like that?
Either make sure
you crush the opponent
or don't do things like this again.
Let's go in and eat.
What in the world?
How long has he just been sitting there?
He's been reading all day.
Does he step out often these days?
No, not really.
Why do you ask?
No, it's nothing.
You can just get back to your work.
She can watch me all she likes.
She won't get anything out of it.
Ms. Kim.
Good grief. Good grief.
Did I keep you waiting long?
I had to take care of something.
Reading made the time pass so quickly.
Can you concentrate on a book here?
We'll have to set you up with an office quickly.
Speaking of, I was thinking of setting up my study
on the ground floor of the new house.
What do you think?
Oh, well, you see...
How about letting my kids
and Eunjeong live there
and we stay at my current house?
Pardon?
The thing is, I'm so comfortable at my house.
And it'll be like new with a little renovation.
You should've discussed it with me first.
But then again, it's your house,
so what can I say?
It's not because it's my house.
You must be upset.
Um... Here.
It's your allowance for the week.
Use this since you don't have the credit card.
And let me know if there's anything
that requires a large expenditure.
Then I'll give you money if need be.
Please let me be in charge of all money matters.
I'll make sure you're not strapped.
Wow. Survive on this for a week?
Good grief. What does she take me for?
Thank goodness I set aside my own share.
Hello.
Oh? What a surprise.
Ms. Gil, welcome.
Just call me Eunjo.
Really?
I supposed you are younger than Inu,
and as Haengja's daughter, you're my daughter too.
Am I right?
Yes.
This is the first time I'm seeing you alone.
So it is.
What is it you want to say?
Don't be shy. Ask me anything.
It's about Ms. Kim.
I've caused her a lot of grief.
I was a big troublemaker.
But she seems happy these days.
She smiles a lot and seems at ease.
I know that's all thanks to you.
Thank you.
You must have felt I'd stolen her from you,
so thank you for saying that.
Please keep her smiling like you're doing now.
That's all I want.
Of course. That's not hard.
Thank you very much once again.
Oh, right. Other than with money,
Ms. Kim is a very generous person.
Wow. She demurely hit me below the belt.
She rubbed me the wrong way from the get-go.
First impressions never lie.
What is it?
You saw my dad, right?
What did you say to him?
I had to tell him something.
Who are you to talk to my dad?
I did it for Ms. Kim.
Did you tell him to go easy on her?
But of course.
It was a ridiculous match from the start.
You're right. They're not a good match.
Of course not.
The ignorant gamecock of Geumdong
and my PhD-holding dad are a world apart.
Ignorant gamecock?
What I'm saying isn't false.
What about an educated man mooching off
someone you call an ignorant woman?
What? Oh. Money?
You think you're all that because you have money?
Ms. Jeong Inu.
Money comes and goes.
But education and refinement can't be had overnight.
Isn't their disparity too great to quibble over?
So you're blatantly disparaging Ms. Kim?
I only say and act out how I feel.
You're really hopeless and vile.
Is this how your refined father taught you?
Vile?
Do you know your aunt's tailing my dad?
Why would she do that?
She's tailing him to see
if he might rip off Ms. Kim.
Is such blatant disrespect okay if you're rich?
That's what's called vile.
Min Yang, you can go.
Okay.
What's with you?
Are you staring me down?
You're scaring me.
Why are you tailing Dr. Jeong?
What?
I'm sure you have a reason.
You don't need to know.
Don't meddle in what your elders do.
You shouldn't have gotten caught then.
Why give his family cause for contempt?
Who in his family?
Anyway, stop tailing him.
Who are you to tell me what to do?
It's for Ms. Kim's sake.
What right do you have?
You're looking out for Haengja?
Good grief.
Why don't I have the right to?
Hey, you are... You are...
Never mind.
Go ahead.
Just lay it all out.
I don't want to.
Don't get dare get cocky.
Because I'm just a foundling?
That's what you want to say, right?
What?
Y-You knew?
When? How?
You knew yet you've shamelessly carried on as is?
Didn't you ever feel sorry for me?
I wasn't abandoned because I wanted to be.
Did you ever think about how I would feel
if I ever found out?
Why would I?
Why do I have to worry about your feelings?
That's right.
You wouldn't have been so mean to me
had you worried about my feelings.
Wow. You have a twisted way of putting things.
You must feel sorry for yourself,
but our family treated you well.
My dad, whom the entire town respected,
doted on you like his own grandchild.
And my saintly brother? Let's not even go there.
And do you know how much love
my sweet sister-in-law showered you with?
And then there's Haengja,
whom we don't even have to discuss.
So don't you think it's shameless
to want my love as well
after all the love you've gotten?
What did I say?
Talk about returning kindness with malice.
Just 3 years after you came...
Never mind. Never mind!
That I'm cursed?
That's right.
It's true we fell to ruin after you came.
That's why I'm going to watch over Ms. Kim.
How will you do that?
You can't even take care of yourself.
It's best if you just stay put.
No.
I'll repay Ms. Kim
and Myeongjo
for all they have given me.
So you stay put.
Hey!
Just don't do anything
because you're no help.
Hey. Hey!
How dare she chastise me?
If you knew anything about gratitude,
you wouldn't pounce on me like this.
Who are you
to take it out on me?
How long were you there for?
Again, the whole time.
Why do my secrets get found out by you?
I don't want them to be.
You did well.
I did well?
I'm always on an emotional roller coaster.
So what if I'm a foundling?
Like you said, our years together are what count.
What's important are the many years
and love that we've shared.
But then I wonder why my mom abandoned me.
Why did I start my life cold and alone?
How will I take care of anyone when I myself
was abandoned at birth?
Do you know how much strength you give me?
If you can't take care of anyone,
just take care of me.
I have lots of problems,
and they're all my doing.
Mr. Hong...
I haven't been brave enough to do this.
If you still have feelings for me,
I don't care if it's just pity.
Please take care of me.
I have a big picture.
A big picture?
What do you mean
the building's been sold?
Busik.
Father.
We've decided not to extend your contract.
Really?
But no one knows what the future holds.
No matter what happens,
don't resent me, Gil Eunjo.
How can you do that? How?
I have something to tell you.
Tomorrow's an important day for me.
President Hong, we walked into a trap.
