EPISODE 2

[knock on door]

[melancholy piano music playing]

Can you give us a moment?

[door opens, closes]

Seeing you getting married

makes me feel like

I can finally face Sunho.

You couldn't face him until now?

You married your best friend's wife

right after he died.

So I didn't think you cared

about things like guilt or shame.

We just need to walk

down the aisle like this.

Just like you and my grandfather,

Chairman Cha Gangcheon, wanted,

I won't stand in the way of this marriage

into a family of prosecutors.

Just answer one thing.

Was my dad's death really an accident?

Eunnam, I didn't k*ll…

your father, Yeo Sunho.

[mysterious music playing]

That's what you're asking, right?

Whether I k*lled your father.

We were in an accident.

Sunho was unlucky and died.

And I was lucky and survived.

That's it.

I have a question too.

About Seo Dongju.

[dramatic violin music playing]

Can you end it for good?

If he clings after learning

you're Daesan's heiress,

it will be a problem.

[Eunnam] How did you know about him?

Do my mom and grandfather know too?

Your mom knows.

I haven't told your grandfather.

An engaged granddaughter

living with another man?

It's not a topic for in-laws to discuss.

[Eunnam] You know what Dongju's like.

He's not the clingy type.

How do you fall and end up

with a bruise like that on your cheek?

You look like you got punched.

Well…

I was washing my hands,

and the sink was wet.

I leaned in to check the mirror, and bam!

That's what happened, Aunt.

They say weddings never go smoothly.

Of course, you had to trip

and mess up your face.

I'm so upset. Come over here.

-Gosh.

-Open your mouth.

[groans softly]

[Boyeon sighs]

How are you going to face

your in-laws like this?

And how will you face your mom

when you die?

Seriously, Aunt.

Why do you always take it that far?

Mom's probably looking down, grinning.

She probably loves her daughter-in-law.

Hey, do you love her that much?

[chuckles]

[Boyeon] That much?

[guests applauding]

[dramatic music playing]

[breathing heavily]

[lock clicking]

[phone vibrates]

[Eunnam] Dongju,

by the time you read this,

I'll be getting married.

[somber music playing]

Make sure you get your revenge

and walk in holding another woman's hand.

[guests applauding]

[Eunnam] Jealousy will eat me alive,

but I deserve it.

[laughs bitterly]

[laughing bitterly]

[crying]

[exhales]

[music swells]

[music fades]

[solemn music playing]

[door unlocks, opens]

The chairman wants to see you.

[sighs]

Promise you won't make a scene.

Only then will you see him.

Move.

He was raised without a mother's care,

so he has his flaws.

Please be understanding.

[Jangseon laughs]

-Professor Yeom.

-Yes, brother.

Excessive humility isn't proper etiquette.

As his uncle, I can confidently say

our Huicheol is a top-tier groom,

not just among prosecutors

but in the entire legal field.

Wouldn't you agree?

Yes.

[Gangcheon] All set

for the pyebaek ceremony?

[Dongju] The staff will let us know

when it's ready.

[Gangcheon] Good.

[tense music playing]

[sighs heavily]

You…

You're an unbelievable b*tch.

Do you know that?

You're right.

I don't need this fake watch anymore.

Take it.

It's actually real.

[scoffs]

Seo Dongju.

-Leave Daesan.

-Hey, Yeo Eunnam.

Cut it out.

You woke up in my bed this morning

and married someone else by noon.

You fooled me into thinking

this watch was fake. Isn't that enough?

I'm never leaving Daesan.

Do you understand?

Huh Ildo knows all about us.

He even knows

that I hid who I am from you.

The guy who threw me out

of the wedding, Cheon Guho.

He works for Yeom Jangseon.

Looks like the chairman doesn't know.

If he knew, he wouldn't have made me

his assistant at your wedding.

Did you ever,

even for a second, consider marrying me?

I didn't.

[scoffs]

And I was going to propose to you today.

What a fool I am.

I was going to ask,

but you went and married someone else.

This marriage comes

with a lot of Daesan shares.

This is the marriage I wanted.

Is it worth marrying someone

you don't even love?

Isn't it me who you love?

[music fades]

Love isn't required

for the marriage I want.

Put on the watch.

I'd rather people not see

the tattoo on your wrist.

[dramatic song playing]

[song fades]

[organ playing softly]

Let's see.

[Dongju] Hey, it looks perfect as it is.

[Yeonju] When did you get here?

[Dongju] A while ago.

[Yeonju] Hmm.

You're not feverish,

but you look worn out.

What's going on, Stephanus?

As you can see, I'm fine.

It must be Pentecost,

judging by the flowers.

I didn't think you cared about church,

but you remember?

The woman you live with… Eunnam, right?

When will I meet her?

I got dumped.

See?

I told you not to get c*ck

over your looks.

With a face like this, how can I not?

[scoffs]

Jeez.

She must be out of her mind.

Dumping our handsome Dongju like that?

Sister Agnes!

Relax. Even God would understand.

-Want me to cuss her out?

-I'll handle the cursing.

You pray for her.

Because I can't pray for her.

So do it in my stead.

Pray that she stays

healthy and happy.

All right.

You curse all you want.

I'll just…

pray for Eunnam.

[Yeonju] Seo Dongju!

Stephanus!

Here, take this.

Put it in tea and drink it warm.

It's the good stuff.

If it's the good stuff,

you should have it.

Come on.

Half of your body belongs to whom?

To you.

I'm leaving.

-Don't skip your meals.

-Okay, I got it.

And make sure you have it.

[phone ringing]

CHAIRMAN

INCOMING CALL

Yes, sir.

The liquor safe is empty, Director Seo.

[Dongju] Understood, sir.

[line disconnects]

[solemn piano music playing]

[Eunnam] Huh Ildo knows all about us.

[exhales]

8 YEARS AGO

[Dongju] Hello, sir.

I got called in while golfing.

I can't even think straight.

Where's my tie?

Great.

The chairman hates men

who do business without a tie on.

He says it lacks class.

I'm in trouble again.

Better me than you.

[Gangcheon] So, you found errors

in Daesan Energy's financial report?

How much did they try to fool me?

[amusing music playing]

[Gangcheon sighs]

REVIEW REPOR

ON DAESAN ENERGY IMPORT DATA REPOR

[folder thuds]

[line connects, rings]

[Deokhui] Yes, Father.

Tell Ildo to come see me.

[knock on door]

[Gangcheon] Wait.

Chief Choi hates raw eggs.

Why are there two glasses?

Ever had raw eggs before?

I've never tried it.

I'll give it a shot.

These are premium eggs.

[quirky music playing]

[door closes]

Sorry?

[Gangcheon sighs contentedly]

You watched me turn the dial, right?

Pardon?

I apologize, sir.

Open it and take out what's inside.

Sir, it's your safe. I can't…

[Gangcheon] If you can open this,

then you and I are the only ones

who know the liquor safe's code.

Isn't it fun?

[laughs]

[Gihyeon] I told you,

he has a photographic memory

and remembers everything he sees.

[laughing]

[Gangcheon] Here you go.

With a drink like this, who needs ginseng?

[laughs]

[door opens]

I'm here, Father.

[Gangcheon] You can go now.

Good work on the audit.

[tense music playing]

[music fades]

[suspenseful music playing]

I went all out decorating

the bride's room on the second floor.

Why make me do it all over again?

Why spend their first night

in the guest room?

My goodness.

Wait.

I see.

I guess they want to be

far from the others.

Probably for a cozy, passionate night

without any interruptions.

[laughing]

Enough.

Got it, I'll stop.

[laughing]

Oh, my gosh!

-[bright music playing]

-[housekeeper clears throat]

You heard me rambling, didn't you?

Yes, "a cozy, passionate night"?

[coughs nervously, clears throat]

But you know what?

I feel like we're on the same boat.

My name is Jaok,

Hyeon Jaok.

First time hearing it?

"Ja" meaning "son,"

and "Ok" meaning "fruitful."

My father was disappointed

that I was born a girl,

so he put "son" in my name,

hoping he'd get one next.

Ms. Kaesong.

It's true that my grandfather

named me Eunnam,

hoping the second child would be a son.

See? That's why when I heard your name,

I knew we had something in common.

[Jaok laughs]

Where's your groom?

Why are you here alone?

[Eunnam] Grandfather called for him.

He gathered everyone

for some cold sujebi

and a round of drinks.

Gosh. Oh no.

My poor husband must be so busy.

-You may go.

-Yes, ma'am.

[chuckles softly]

My dress code for the night.

The chairman was pleased with you two

during the pyebaek ceremony.

He said you both looked great in hanbok.

Sorry for making you do the work twice.

Are you staying here because you don't

want to run into your parents upstairs?

Yes.

Especially…

my mom.

[somber music playing]

[music fades]

Hey, Huh Taeyun.

Why did you back away when you saw me?

You won't even talk to me?

You don't like me,

so I'm keeping my distance.

When did I say I didn't like you?

Before you went abroad…

Maybe a thousand times?

I left in middle school.

That was ages ago…

Wait… You actually counted?

Eunnam.

Are you happy

that you're married?

I just got married today.

It hasn't been a day yet.

Asking that to a sister who said

she hated you a thousand times?

I thought you'd marry Director Seo.

What?

Taeyun! What did you say?

[Eunnam] That reaction means

you didn't tell Taeyun yourself, right?

Mom, you knew about this?

Both of you, shut your mouth.

It'll upset your grandfather.

He never expected much from me.

What's there to be upset about?

If that were true,

would he have arranged your marriage?

For once,

Grandfather was probably glad

I was born a girl

since he could

marry me off to the Yeom family.

Eunnam.

Don't look at me like that, Mom.

I agreed to this marriage.

How did you find out?

-Seriously…

-Eunnam.

If your grandfather finds out,

he'll feel intimidated by Yeom Jangseon.

He must never find out. And…

What else?

Be careful.

Don't let Prosecutor Yeom find out.

Be extra careful.

[Gangcheon] What's taking Eunnam so long?

And where's Director Seo?

[Deokhui sighs]

You invited Director Seo too?

This is a family gathering.

An outsider would make

Prosecutor Yeom uncomfortable, Father.

Oh, as for me… [chuckles awkwardly]

No, I'll be fine.

He's coming.

I thought it'd just be you and me.

I'll just go home.

Come sit, Director Seo.

The chairman invited you

because he considers you family.

Leaving now would be rude.

[dramatic music playing]

[music fades]

[Boyeon laughs]

You should've seen

Huicheol grinning like a fool

even with his face all puffed up

from hitting the sink.

[chuckles]

He was smiling like that

from the day we set him up.

Thank you both.

Huicheol wouldn't have turned out this way

without you two.

That's true.

Honey.

What did we even do?

Well, the one thing we did right

was finding a good match for Huicheol.

[Boyeon laughs]

Boyeon.

The secretary who was

with Chairman Cha at the wedding

looked familiar.

That's Director Seo.

He comes by here often for work too.

You might've crossed paths

when you visited Seoul.

[Boyeon chuckles awkwardly]

[sighs]

[door opens]

[dramatic song playing]

Dongju.

Dongju.

Seo Dongju.

[chuckles softly]

[song fades]

[suspenseful music playing]

[music fades]

[gasps loudly]

[breathing heavily]

[groans]

Got a hangover? No surprise there.

God, you reek of alcohol.

Were you covered in alcohol or something?

[sighs]

Secretary Gong didn't ask me to wake you

out of formality.

She just didn't want to deal

with the smell herself.

Did I do anything stupid yesterday?

[sighs heavily]

[chef] Besides chugging

a fresh jar of liquor and passing out,

not much.

-Jeez.

-[sighs]

The groom carried you here last night.

He didn't seem so,

but he's quite manly and strong.

He carried you with ease.

Jeez.

Yeom Huicheol…

Is Prosecutor Yeom still here?

He went back home

first thing in the morning.

-Gosh.

-[sighs]

Hurry and go see the chairman.

He's been waiting for hours.

Can you even drive?

You still reek of alcohol.

Where is the chairman?

Where else? He's at the office.

Gosh, you reek of alcohol.

I should air out this room.

sh**t.

[tense music playing]

[music fades]

[solemn music playing]

-[Dongju] Yes, thank you.

-[taxi driver] Thank you.

I'm sorry…

[sighs heavily]

[sighs]

[exhales]

[music fades]

[Gangcheon sighs]

[Gangcheon] How does it feel

that you can't freely open

the liquor and money safes anymore?

When the liquor safe wouldn't open,

I figured you might've

changed the code by accident.

Then I saw the bottles were gone

from my briefcase.

That's when I realized

you'd found out about Eunnam and me

and changed the safe codes.

But even after realizing it,

I didn't want to accept it.

That's why I checked the inner safe.

Sir…

If you already knew,

why did you invite me to the wedding?

[suspenseful music playing]

Since you prefer

getting straight to the point,

I'll cut to the chase

and tell you the reason

why I asked to meet you in private.

Your granddaughter,

who's about to become my nephew's wife,

has been living with Seo Dongju.

The wedding is tomorrow,

yet they're still together as we speak.

I apologize.

You could've called off the wedding

with a phone call. Why did you--

Kick Seo Dongju out of Daesan.

In exchange,

I'll overlook the mistake

of my nephew's fiancée,

and you can pretend you never

heard any of this.

I needed to confirm something.

Whether you…

really didn't know

Eunnam was my granddaughter.

To see if you wanted to marry into Daesan

with ulterior motives.

I had…

ulterior motives.

I knew about

your granddaughter, Jennifer Huh.

On a business trip to New York,

I planned to approach her,

hoping to eventually marry her.

I wanted to marry into Daesan

and rise through the ranks,

just like President Huh Ildo.

That was my initial plan.

But a day before my trip,

I met Eunnam.

You chose a woman over a fast promotion?

Back then, I was confident.

I was sure I could have both,

love and success.

[exhales softly]

[melancholy song playing]

After the wedding yesterday,

I told myself

to curse Eunnam until I forgot her,

throw myself into work, and move on.

That was the plan.

I guess that's out the window now.

I'll make sure to hand over

my management files to Chief Choi.

Give me two days to wrap things up,

and I'll resign in three.

Thank you for everything, sir.

Spouting nonsense like that

just because you have a mouth.

Is it that difficult

to say that you're sorry?

What are you doing?

Your resignation isn't final yet.

I'm going to drive.

Sir, I'm sober now.

[Gangcheon sighs]

BAKERY CAFE

You drove all this way for a bakery?

This is a good one.

-[Dongju] Here you go.

-[cafe employee 1] Thank you.

[cafe employee 2 whistling]

Darn it, why leave the tongs here?

-[knock on window]

-He's there!

-Hey! Seonu!

-Come on!

[Seonu's friend] What are you doing?

Get out here!

[Seonu] I'll be back in an hour.

[door opens, closes]

[motor engine revving]

[motor engine starts, revs]

[clears throat]

[customer] Can I get a cappuccino?

JI YEONGSU, FORMER NEWS ANCHOR

AFTER DIVORCE, SHE DISAPPEARED…

[indistinct chatter]

[Gangcheon] That's Ji Yeongsu,

the news anchor.

I see…

I come here often,

but she acts like she doesn't know me.

Did you see the guy

who sped off on a bike?

-Yes.

-That's Ji Seonu.

[Dongju] Sir…

The reason you came

all the way to this bakery…

It is…

because of my son.

[solemn music playing]

With a father who couldn't

even pass down his surname,

he's Ji Seonu, not Cha Seonu.

He's my son.

[Deokhui] Ji Yeongsu's son dropped out

of school and started baking with his mom.

[Ildo] Honey,

you're still keeping tabs on that kid?

[Deokhui] You don't know my father well.

The moment Ji Seonu becomes Cha Seonu,

Taeyun could end up being devoured.

You're worrying over nothing.

That will never happen.

[Taeyun] Mom.

Hey, Taeyun!

You called me for this medicine?

Can't you drink it for me, Dad?

What?

Sure.

Worst case? Mom kicks us both out.

Hey, Taeyun.

I get the bitter stuff,

and you take the candy?

Hey…

[Taeyun grunts]

[exhales] Candy makes it less bitter.

Right, candy to chase down the medicine.

[Ildo chuckles softly]

How did you learn about

your sister and Seo Dongju?

You'll upset his stomach

after his medicine.

When did you find out?

Dongju…

I mean, Director Seo…

It's over between them.

Why does it matter

when or how I found out?

[sighs]

Honey.

Did you hear that?

He just addressed him as Dongju.

[sighs]

[violin playing]

[violin screeching]

I've practiced a lot, but I still mess up.

Well, even musicians make mistakes.

Proposed yet?

Not yet.

Practicing this for your proposal?

I want to play it when she walks

down the aisle at our wedding.

[chuckling]

You'll need a lot of practice then.

[Taeyun laughs]

Dongju, show me a picture of her.

A picture?

-You want to see?

-Yes.

Hey, try not to be too shocked.

She's really pretty.

Let's see. There.

[suspenseful music playing]

[Dongju scoffs]

That shocking?

Yes.

[Dongju] Her parents live in the States.

So right now, she's living with me.

[music fades]

Enjoying a good meal?

[Taeyun] Grandfather.

Want some ramyeon?

It's okay.

We already had plenty of bread.

-Your grandfather came home, right?

-Yes.

Didn't he ask for ramyeon?

He said he had some bread.

-Bread?

-Yes.

With Director Seo.

He usually likes my ramyeon.

The bread filled him up.

[tense music playing]

[Dongju] It's just a liquor carrier.

I apologize for overdrinking

at dinner yesterday.

[door closes]

[music fades]

He explained everything to you,

yet you still invited Director Seo

to the wedding.

That really upset Mr. Yeom.

What a petty man.

A pathetic wretch,

not even worth chewed-up straw!

That Yeom b*stard.

He talks big

about the National Patriotism Fund,

but at his core,

he's just a money-hungry leech!

Father!

No matter what, Seo Dongju has to go.

[tense music playing]

[Gangcheon] The new codes

for the liquor and money safes.

Someday, Ji Seonu must become Cha Seonu.

Do you understand?

[music ends]

You b*stard…

What the hell are you doing here?

Move, as*h*le. It's narrow as it is.

Hey!

Quit swearing at me.

I said I'd stop hitting you,

not swearing at you.

You b*stard…

How are you a prosecutor?

Prosecutor…

I swear, I'm about to…

Seriously!

Want me to even out the other side?

Okay.

I won't swear at you either.

So you stop too.

Got it?

The words from your mouth

are yours to control, so suit yourself.

My mouth, my rules. I'll say what I want.

Got it? Bye, then.

[laughs incredulously]

Damn that thug, seriously…

Sir, Director Seo is here to see you.

Sir, my apologies

for showing up unannounced.

[Jangseon] Indeed.

No one shows up at my house

without notice.

Well…

The chairman figured if I called first,

you'd tell me not to come.

He told me to just go.

Chairman Cha Gangcheon…

Always thinking ahead,

isn't he?

[tense music playing]

Sending Director Seo here

with gold and dollars…

What kind of message is this?

[Dongju] The chairman didn't say much.

But I assume

it's his way of asking you

to take good care of his granddaughter.

From my perspective, it seems more like

he wants me to take back

my request to have you fired.

You didn't know?

No, sir.

Sir,

I'm not leaving Daesan.

It seems neither the chairman nor you

plan on that happening.

You don't need to worry about me.

I am worried.

Having you at Daesan feels like…

How can I explain this?

It feels like you are curled up

right at the foot of the bed

where my nephew and his wife sleep.

It's no different from that.

That thought won't leave my head.

That's not something

I can erase for you, sir.

This all happened

because you chose the woman I lived with

to be your niece-in-law, sir.

[scoffs]

The only thing I can say

is that I respect Eunnam's decision

to marry Yeom Huicheol.

[Huicheol] Uncle!

My friends keep nagging

about the secret wedding,

so I set up a meetup.

-Are you going alone?

-Yes.

She still feels a bit awkward.

[scoffs quietly]

[melancholy music playing]

-[Huicheol] Are you coming with me?

-[Eunnam] Yes.

I'll go with him.

And Aunt doesn't

feel like cooking tonight.

She told me

to tell you that she wants to eat out.

[Jangseon] Barely married a few days

and she's already bossing you around.

Dinner out? [chuckles]

All right, go on then.

[Eunnam] See you later.

[Huicheol] Right, see you later.

[music fades]

[suspenseful music playing]

There's something

Mr. Yeom forgot to pass on.

Manager Yoo

from Energy Resources Corporation

is meeting reporters after returning.

Oh, that.

[Manager Yoo]

Since the hearing got canceled,

reporters won't leave me alone.

It's driving me nuts.

I'll give you a news angle you can share.

Drop that one instead.

Preemptively?

An attack is the best defense, right?

Then, did you intentionally

make that story go public?

Yes.

[tuts]

[music fades]

[opera music playing over speakers]

Since President Huh

takes such good care of himself,

we tailored the waistline

to be more streamlined.

This is a gift from our daughter

for his vice-chairman promotion,

so make sure it's perfect.

[manager] Yes, ma'am.

Mom, why would I do that for him?

Get him a nice suit

for the appointment inauguration.

I'll get your husband a suit

for his birthday.

Let's see a suit for my son-in-law.

[manager] Of course.

Congratulations on your promotion!

You're getting ahead of yourself.

The announcement hasn't been made.

It seems like he wants to settle it today.

Otherwise, why would he

rush you here by helicopter?

[tense music playing]

[Gangcheon] I know you had high hopes

for the promotion, President Huh.

But that is the general opinion.

The subsidiary executives

and the board members at headquarters…

They think promoting you

to vice-chairman is premature.

The chairman

wants to promote you

to the group's vice-chairman.

I was told to meet with executives

over the next 10 days.

[Gukhui] Father.

Address me as Chairman.

This isn't a private setting.

I understand that Ildo needs to lie low

for now because of the hearing.

But, Chief Choi,

does jumping from chief secretary

to vice-chairman make sense to you?

Well, I'm not sure.

And the board hasn't even approved it yet.

The decision will be made

at the next company-wide

personnel announcement.

Starting next year,

you'll be carrying the burden

of being vice-chairman.

Since you know the company inside out,

you'll serve as vice-chairman for now

and hand it over to President Huh.

President Cha, forget Daesan Energy

and focus on acquiring Yuseong Chemical.

Father, I really wanted

to take over Daesan Energy…

I mean, I really wanted to lead it.

So I'm truly disappointed.

But no one is more crushed

than my brother-in-law,

who just slipped off the track.

You're too harsh on him, Father.

[Gangcheon] It's just a business decision.

But let's hear from the man himself

before we wrap things up.

[music fades]

I went to prison.

I sat through the hearing.

I'm the one who gave everything to Daesan.

[solemn music playing]

I should be vice-chairman.

[Gukhui] Ildo.

Father wants to hear your opinion.

I will follow your decision, sir.

[music intensifies]

[Gangcheon] Director Seo.

-Come in.

-Yes, sir.

[music ends]

Yes.

How did it turn out

after rushing to Seoul by helicopter?

I got so excited that I couldn't wait.

I had to call you first.

I got nothing, sir.

Seems the internal poll

conducted by Director Seo

didn't work in my favor.

[exhales deeply]

[Jangseon] Again.

Again. [chuckles incredulously]

Again.

It's Seo Dongju again,

isn't it? [chuckles]

[chuckling]

[doorbell rings]

[doorbell rings]

[line ringing]

Are you sure Manager Yoo moved here?

Yes, I'm sure of it.

I went to see him when I heard he was

leaving Energy Resources Corporation.

He wouldn't open the door,

so I couldn't see him.

[man] Where's Seo Dongju?

[dramatic music playing]

Buried Hearts

[Dongju] The fund exceeded two trillion.

[Guho] It resembles the hacking program

I encountered at the institute.

[Dongju] I hid some of the slush fund.

Let me live,

and I'll return it and disappear.

[Jangseon] Seo Dongju

pocketed all my money

and took off.

Sending off Seo Dongju is so…

[Dongju] Is Daesan

more important than a life?

Right now, I only want two things.

Money and you, Eunnam.

All that's left is for you to come.
