01x45 - Episode 45

Post by bunniefuu »

Ji Young.

- Ji Young. - Are you really Park Do Ra?

Did you undergo major plastic surgery...

to lie that you were Kim Ji Young?

Did you deceive Director Ko Pil Seung too?

Does Director Ko Pil Seung also know that you are Park Do Ra?

- Say something. - Any comment?

A comment, please.

Who do you think you are, ganging up on her like this?

I'll tell you everything.

Everything will be explained in a separate press conference,

so please...

Does it mean he knew everything from the get-go?

Did you two deceive everyone together?

No.

Director Ko didn't know.

It was all me.

The suicide and everything that followed.

Did you fake your own death to get out of your debt?

Did you have to get a new face and still go into acting?

- Say something. - Jae Dong!

- Please explain. - Any comments?

- Please say something. - Any comments?

- Say something. - Any comments?

- Please say something. - Tell us the truth.

Any comments?

Please tell us what's going on!

What on earth just happened?

- Over there. - Check over there.

Ms. Kim!

Ms. Kim.

They went that way.

Wait. Aren't you Ms. Baek Mi Ja?

You're Baek Mi Ja, Park Do Ra's mother.

- Ms. Baek. - Were you also aware of this?

No, I don't know anything.

I don't know anything.

- Please comment. - No.

- Ms. Baek, please say something. - Ms. Baek!

- Ms. Baek? - Ms. Baek, please comment.

- Ms. Baek, wait. - Please say something.

[Park Do Ra Is Alive! Did She Fake Her Death?]

[Actress Kim Ji Young Is Former Top Star Park Do Ra!]

[Did Park Do Ra Fake Her Death to Bury the Sponsorship Scandal?]

My gosh. How's Sun Young doing?

Goodness me.

I still haven't been able to calm myself.

My hands are shaking.

How could they have even thought to marry...

while deceiving us like that?

Now you know why I berate him for being a foundling.

Mom, please.

What? It's not like I'm wrong.

He wouldn't have done this if you were his biological parents.

Is this how he repays you for raising him all these years?

That darn brat.

A marriage isn't just for the bride and groom.

How could something like this happen?

You can only imagine...

how betrayed Chairman Gong must be feeling.

Even if he backs out of the adoption deal,

we'd have nothing to say.

Mom, please stop.

Sun Young's heartbroken as is.

Pil Seung had his reasons.

As if!

Hold on. Did you know about this?

Pil Seung told me...

everything before the wedding.

What? You...

What... What was that?

Are you saying you knew about this?

You knew the truth and still deceived us?

Wait. Did you also know...

that Kim Ji Young is actually Park Do Ra?

- You... - I heard...

about her story from Pil Seung and felt terrible.

That's why...

I gave him my approval.

- What? - My goodness.

How...

How could you approve of this after finding out about her?

Are you out of your mind?

Everyone is hurling stones at Pil Seung.

This is all your fault.

What will you do to correct this?

- How will you save our son? - I...

- What will you do? - I'm sorry. I never thought...

something like this would happen.

- Sun Young. - You...

How could you deceive me like this?

I can't live with you anymore.

- I want a divorce! - Goodness.

- Sun Young, please. - I can't live with you anymore.

- Sun Young, come on. - I want a divorce!

- How could you? - Sun Young.

- How could you? - Sun Young, calm down.

[Shocking! Park Do Ra Is Alive! She Faked Her Own Death!]

My goodness.

My poor Do Ra.

How did the reporters know that Ji Young is Do Ra?

My poor Do Ra.

She was finally making some money,

and then this happened out of nowhere.

Goodness me.

Do Sik, my gosh.

It was you, wasn't it?

You did this. You...

You told the reporters who Ji Young really is.

No!

I'm upset as it is, so why would you accuse me?

Why would I rat out my daughter?

You said so the other day...

that you'd tell the world who she is.

That was the anger talking.

It was out of spite since you were abandoning me.

Mom, for the last time, I'll ask for your honesty.

It was you. No one else could've leaked this.

It wasn't me!

But...

to tell you the truth,

I might've said something I shouldn't have.

You might have said something?

That day...

Mr. Gong came over and kept asking if Ji Young was Do Ra.

He said he heard us talking.

I'd had a bit to drink that day.

"My Do Ra isn't Ji Young."

"Would I tell you something like that?"

I said that, and I think that was a mistake.

What?

I can't prove it,

but I think it was Mr. Gong who did it.

Do Sik, will you believe me?

Shall I go to Gong Jin Dan and put him in his place?

Shall I slap him or something?

It was your fault, then.

No one would've known if you hadn't said anything, right?

Don't talk like that to me. You're making me feel sad.

Don't show yourself before us ever again.

Even if Do Ra and Do Jun are okay with it,

I can't stand you.

You can live here if you want.

But if you appear before Do Ra or Do Jun...

and mention money again,

I'll put this place up for rent.

- No, Do Sik... - Mom.

This is the end.

Let's never meet again.

No, Do Sik, wait.

It's not like that, Do Sik.

That's not what happened. Do Sik.

Do Sik! It wasn't on purpose!

Pil Seung.

What should I do?

[Kim Ji Young Was Park Do Ra! She Deceived the World!]

[Ko Pil Seung Knew of Park Do Ra's Disguise!]

[Park Faked Death and Changed Looks to Escape Sponsor Scandal!]

[Kim Ji Young Was Park Do Ra! She Deceived the World!]

[The nation's in shock after learning "Seoul Lady" star...]

[Kim Ji Young turned out to be Park Do Ra.]

[Park Do Ra's Kim Ji Young? I feel like I drank raw sewage.]

[Isn't Ko Pil Seung just as bad?]

Oh, no.

What now?

I told you not to read this stuff.

They don't know what happened.

There's no context in the articles and it's provoking the public.

In time, they'll come to see you didn't do this...

on purpose.

I'm okay.

I deserve to be cursed out and stoned.

I can make no excuses.

But what about you?

Why should you go through this because of me?

This is why I said I wouldn't marry you.

Do Ra.

I said I was okay.

We knew we'd have to go through this at least once.

Let's just think it happened sooner than we thought.

The public's excited and on edge right now.

Let's take the time...

to explain what happened.

Then they'll see the truth about us.

Let's get through...

this wave together. Okay?

Do you really think so?

Do you?

Yes.

They'll see the truth one day.

Stop crying.

I'm by your side.

[Park Faked Death and Changed Looks to Escape Sponsor Scandal!]

Yes.

Justice prevailed.

They should pay for lying to the public.

These two...

will have to leave the country.

Darn it.

They should've listened to me.

Jin Dan!

I have some big news.

Do you know who Kim Ji Young is?

You kept saying she looked like Do Ra.

Well, she is Do Ra.

She pretended to be dead, but she was alive.

Reporters raided the wedding hall as she walked down the aisle.

The people there had never seen such a sight.

Jin Dan. What would've happened if you'd ended up with her?

Our family and you would've gone down.

Jin Dan. Why aren't you surprised?

Ji Young is the Do Ra you missed so much.

I read the news. I know all about it.

Do you?

Don't you think Do Ra's a scary freak?

Oh, right.

I talked to Mr. Kang, the lawyer. They've postponed...

Pil Seung's adoption for now.

- Is that true? - Yes.

Your brother knows right from wrong.

He figured it out and put a stop to it.

We would've taken a tumble if he'd adopted Pil Seung,

but he avoided that.

I don't know who leaked this to the press,

but I'm glad they did.

How could she lie to everyone like that?

She even got a new look.

It gives me the chills.

She's a crazy freak. Seriously.

Dad. It's me.

Hey, Pil Seung. Where are you? Are you okay?

Nothing bad happened to you?

Are you sure you're okay?

Have you eaten?

How is she? She seemed to be in shock.

Are you out of your mind? Who are you worried about?

- Give me the phone. - Okay.

Don't worry about us here.

Call if something happens. Bye.

Why did you hang up? I asked you to put me on.

- Goodness me. - Pil Seung, that punk.

He hasn't called me or answered my calls.

When did you start colluding with him?

Why would you call that "colluding?"

They're fine and in a safe place. He says we don't have to worry.

He'll come home once the frenzy dies down.

That's all.

You should've told him to just come home.

What if something happens to him while he's out there?

Everyone's out there to get them.

Sun Young. How can he come home when there are...

- reporters waiting outside? - Yes.

How long must he be in hiding, then?

What did he do to have to do this?

This is all your fault.

Why did you give permission?

If you'd told me, I'd have stopped him...

and none of this would've happened!

- Sun Young. - Stop it. Sun Young.

Why on earth is that Hyun Chul's fault?

It's Park Do Ra's fault.

What should we do now?

What should we do about Pil Seung?

Sun Young.

- Why you... - Oh, the poor thing...

Where did she go?

Do Ra.

Ji Young!

Ji Young!

The person you have reached is unavailable. Please leave...

I'm sorry for making this decision without telling you.

But I thought it was only right that I took care of this.

I'm doing a press conference.

Pil Seung, I'll call you when it's over.

Don't worry too much.

A press conference?

What is she saying?

Chul Soo, it's me.

Park Do Ra is holding a press conference.

Can you find out where it's happening?

First and foremost,

I wish to apologize for stirring up such a scandal.

It may be a little too late, but I thought...

I should explain everything myself,

which is why I'm here now.

Ms. Kim, are you really Park Do Ra?

Yes.

I am Park Do Ra.

It is true.

But I can assure you that the rumours...

that I deliberately underwent plastic surgery...

and impersonated Kim Ji Young...

to evade the sponsorship scandal...

and the breach of contract penalties...

aren't true.

What do you mean?

You did undergo plastic surgery and lived as Kim Ji Young.

I'll explain everything.

It all began...

because of...

my mother's gambling debts.

We're from the court.

As of this moment,

we will seize Ms. Baek Mi Ja's assets.

When I was working as Park Do Ra,

I found out that my mom was deep in gambling debts.

This is an odd place to meet for a commercial contract deal.

I wanted to work hard to pay off her debts.

I thought I was attending a meeting for a cosmetics ad,

but people accused me of trying to get a sponsor.

Is this where we'll be discussing the cosmetics ad campaign?

Then...

I became an actress who had a sponsor.

Ladies and gentlemen.

I never had any sponsors.

Ever since I made my acting debut at the age of 13,

I've been working hard and diligently,

and I've never done anything I should be ashamed of.

But because of the sponsor scandal,

all my hard work went down the drain,

and no one believed me.

Back then, I had no hope.

I did everything I could to survive,

but I felt like I was falling deeper into a swamp the harder I tried.

So, even though I knew I shouldn't do it...

I went to the beach, without even realizing it.

Are you saying you didn't deliberately fake your death?

Correct.

Back then, I really felt like death was my only option.

I really...

don't think I can live as Park Do Ra anymore, Dad.

What?

I know you'll find it hard to believe,

but I jumped into the sea...

- and woke up... - Oh, dear.

- in the hospital... - What happened?

as Kim Ji Young, Ms. Lee Soon Jung's granddaughter.

At the time, I didn't remember anything,

and I was diagnosed with amnesia.

So I truly believed...

I was Kim Ji Young, Ms. Lee Soon Jung's granddaughter.

Recently, I started regaining my memories little by little...

and discovered that I was Park Do Ra.

But I was already working as an actress,

so I debated countless times...

whether or not I should tell everyone I was Park Do Ra.

But I didn't think that anyone would believe me...

until I proved that I never had a sponsor.

So, I was planning to clear my name first...

and confidently confess everything,

but this all came out first.

Does that mean...

Director Ko deceived everyone with you?

No, he didn't.

He had no idea either.

He only found out recently that I was Park Do Ra.

Either way, he married you knowing you were Park Do Ra, right?

He knew you were Park Do Ra...

when he cast you for the role in "Seoul Lady," didn't he?

Well, he did.

But he didn't make that decision alone.

Either way, he cast you for the role knowing you were Park Do Ra.

Reporters.

Please, reporters. I beg you.

Stop making groundless accusations against Director Ko.

Director Ko did nothing wrong.

This is all my fault.

What do you mean he did nothing wrong?

You two orchestrated this together. Who are you trying to kid?

- Are you writing a novel now? - What is this?

You want to clear your name when you had a sponsor?

You got a new face and a new name.

You've done nothing to be ashamed of?

You're a fraud!

If the sponsorship scandal was just a groundless rumour,

why did you totally change your face?

Why undergo plastic surgery and live as someone else?

- You're a fraud! - Darn you.

Stop!

- You're a fraud! - Liar!

- This is ridiculous. - Unbelievable.

- Stop lying. - Stop conning us.

Do Ra!

- Ko Pil Seung is here. - Director Ko is here!

- Director Ko is here. - What?

- Director Ko! - Director Ko!

- Get him on camera! - Director Ko Pil Seung!

So, he was in on it too!

- How dare you show up here? - Darn you!

I bet you thought you could fool everyone...

at this press conference.

Ko Pil Seung, you crook!

Don't you think you owe the other actors an apology?

Director Ko did nothing wrong.

You can yell at me all you want,

but please don't do this to Director Ko.

- Please! - Let's go.

Director Ko did nothing wrong!

Unbelievable.

Guys.

Park Do Ra's pathetic demise is on full display now, live.

Guys, don't lie.

This is what happens when you lie.

Why did you do that without even telling me? Why?

See?

I told you that you'd only suffer if you stayed by my side.

Why did you have to be so stubborn?

Look at yourself now.

What is this? Because of me, you've ended up in this mess too!

Do Ra.

I'm okay, all right?

Pil Seung.

I'm not okay.

I really want to clear up the misunderstanding about you.

You did nothing wrong.

Why do you have to put up with this when you did nothing wrong?

I'm so upset that I'm about to lose my mind!

Do Ra.

I said I was fine.

So, why are you being like this?

What breaks my heart more is the fact...

that you were sitting there alone.

You must've been so scared, all by yourself.

Pil Seung.

Pil Seung,

what will we do if Hwang Jeong Sik never shows up?

We'll never get out of this mess...

if we don't find him.

It's not too late for you to leave me.

Just leave me!

Leave me and stay away, Pil Seung.

Park Do Ra!

Pil Seung, cut your losses.

Do Ra.

Get a grip on yourself.

Pil Seung, leave me.

Stop saying that.

Together, we can rise above this.

Seeing you get criticized by people...

is worse than having my life turned upside down.

I'd rather die than watch people condemn you.

Do Ra.

Calm down.

I'll be fine as long as I have you.

Pil Seung, what are we going to do?

Have faith in me.

What are we going to do?

Pil Seung, what are we going to do?

It's all right.

It'll be all right.

What?

You put a pause on Pil Seung's adoption process?

Honey.

What other choice do I have at this point?

I'm actually relieved the court hasn't started processing it.

What if he were already our adopted son?

The scandal would've eaten APP Group up alive as well.

Honey,

how could you stop the process without discussing it with me?

You were the one...

who insisted on adopting him as your son in the first place.

You said he was like your son.

When your children are in a crisis,

it's up to the parents to help them.

How could you turn your back on him...

over this matter?

You're calling it a pause,

but you've already decided to pull the plug, haven't you?

Dad.

Aren't you going to adopt Pil Seung?

How can you turn your back on him when he needs our support?

Pil Seung agreed to be your adopted son,

which means you should help him.

Ma Ri, my hands are tied.

This was the choice he made.

I told him not to marry her...

if he wanted to be my son,

but he chose her instead.

I can't let that young lady...

ruin the company's reputation.

You'll probably choose the company over me as well.

I'm disappointed in you.

Ma Ri, wait.

Honey, don't just sit there and go after her.

What?

Jin Dan had feelings for Park Do Ra?

Exactly.

They almost got engaged back in the day.

Back then and even now, she was and still is a vixen.

How could she lie about her identity and take up acting again?

My goodness. Our Jin Dan must've been shaken.

But isn't Park Do Ra dating Pil Seung?

Yes, and Jin Dan was barking up the wrong tree.

My poor baby.

He got duped by Do Ra...

and then again when she was Kim Ji Young.

But I'm sure he had his reasons.

Park Do Ra must've sent him signals...

while she was dating Pil Seung.

Of course, she did.

She's a cunning minx.

Anyway, this ordeal turned out to be a blessing.

A blessing? How so?

Chairman Gong was so disappointed in Pil Seung...

that he put the adoption on hold.

That's what he says,

but we all know he's pulling the plug.

Really?

Will Jin Dan be adopted instead then?

Not right now,

but I'll push Chairman Gong in that direction when it's time.

Besides, if no one gets adopted,

Jin Dan will inherit everything.

That's why I need Pil Seung to tank his life for good.

Then Chairman Gong will lose faith in him.

That's why he needs to be with Park Do Ra.

Staying together will be his demise.

Yes, you're right.

He should've been out by now.

- Where? I see. - Over here.

Why is nobody coming out?

That's why I need Pil Seung to tank his life for good.

Then Chairman Gong will lose faith in him.

I see you're working hard in this hot weather.

Here you go.

Take these fans...

and have some beverages while you wait.

Thank you for this.

But who may you be?

I live at this residence.

- Really? - Are you Director Ko's family?

Not exactly.

I'm an acquaintance of his father's.

You're an acquaintance.

Since you know the family, I'll ask some questions.

During the press conference,

Park Do Ra said...

that Director Ko didn't know she was Park Do Ra.

Is that true?

I'm not sure.

I hear they've been dating for a while now.

It seems odd to think that he didn't know.

My guess is that he always knew.

Could Director Ko have cast her for his show...

just because of who she is?

She's his girlfriend, so yes.

Working on set would be like a date.

It's a win-win situation, so why wouldn't he have cast her?

Has Park Do Ra been by this house?

Have you seen her here?

I think I did see her a couple of times,

but I can't be sure that it was her.

Many women have been by.

What do you mean by that?

Are you saying Director Ko had other women?

It doesn't feel right to talk about someone else's love life,

so I won't comment on that.

Jin Sang Gu!

Jin Sang Gu, you punk. What do you think you're doing?

- You punk... - What's going on?

What he said is all lies.

- He has nothing to do... - You!

- with our family. - Sorry?

He's only a tenant here.

- What? - Stop camping out here and leave.

- Jin Sang Gu, you. - Leave!

- Get lost! - My goodness.

- What's her problem? - Get lost!

Leave!

Goodness.

The skies helped us this time around.

It's a relief...

that this all happened before the adoption was processed.

We dodged a b*llet on that one.

Jin Taek, I know...

you want to adopt Pil Seung for Ma Ri's sake.

But Jin Dan is her family.

He is the one to protect her,

this family, and APP Group.

Only Jin Dan can do that.

Mark my words.

Auntie said that to Jin Taek?

What was his response?

He kept quiet and listened.

But you know what it means for him to keep quiet and listen.

He let her talk because he knew she had a point.

Jin Dan,

Pil Seung and Park Do Ra saved your life big time.

From here on out, make sure...

you're never in the doghouse with your aunt or brother.

[Actress Kim Ji Young Says "I'm Park Do Ra"]

[Park Do Ra Screams With Urgency, "Ko Pil Seung Didn't Know"]

[They're both so full of it.]

[Ko Pil Seung's even worse.]

[As if you can lie your way out of this.]

I told you not to read news articles...

or online comments.

Don't read them.

Have some water instead.

Hey, Do Jun.

What? Grandma?

Got it. I'll be right there.

What is it?

I need to head home, Pil Seung.

Grandma won't eat anything and has been asking for me nonstop.

She's close to passing out.

I can't allow that to happen.

Sure, let's go.

We can't avoid the matter anymore anyway.

What can I do without any patronage?

What am I supposed to film when no one's showing up?

Gosh, that's pretty.

- Right. - Wasn't it nice?

- Of course. - I think it came out well.

Hey! That's Park Do Ra.

- Over there. - Isn't that her?

- Park Do Ra. - You minx!

- I can't believe you. - Park Do Ra!

- Ms. Park, say something. - You're unbelievable.

How could you deceive everyone?

- Ms. Park, show us your face. - Unbelievable.

- Ms. Park, show us your face. - Move out of this neighbourhood.

- Get lost! - Over here, Ms. Park.

- Ms. Park, hold on. - Unbelievable.

Ji Young!

My goodness, my Ji Young.

Grandma.

My gosh.

Where were you?

I thought you had fallen into the sea again.

Gosh, no. Why would I be in the sea?

That won't ever happen,

so, don't worry about me, Grandma.

Ji Young, my gosh.

Grandma, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, Grandma.

No, don't say that.

It's fine since you came back to me alive.

You will get to live.

Ji Young, don't you worry.

Grandma.

There you go.

Goodness, it's all right.

It's all right.

Grandma...

My sweet puppy.

If I had known,

I would've stopped you from marrying her.

I'm sorry you got dragged into all this.

Don't be ridiculous.

Besides,

this was something we would have to deal with.

That's why I rushed the wedding.

To stay by Do Ra...

in case the scandal broke.

Pil Seung...

Others may be clueless, but we know the truth.

We know the sponsorship scandal was a trap.

The truth will be revealed someday,

so let's stay strong until that day comes.

Pil Seung, I'll find that Hwang Jeong Sik guy.

Where in the Philippines could you find him...

when there are over 7,000 islands?

I've been working with a reporter friend...

to track him down by asking Koreans who live there.

Recently, someone saw him.

He's been living under an alias.

Why wasn't he caught?

There's no evidence, and he's not a criminal.

But Hwang Jeong Sik has run out of money...

and wants to come back to Korea.

Really?

By the looks of it, he won't be able to hold out for long.

Once he's back in Korea,

the truth can be revealed.

We'll get to know who hired him for the job.

Once Do Ra clears her name in that scandal,

people will be more understanding of her.

Pil Seung, thank you so much.

Hold on.

Yes, Director Yoon.

Is that so?

Sure. I'll be right there.

Do Ra, something came up, and they need me at the office.

I'll be right back after handling that,

so stay put.

Do Sik, Do Jun, take care of Do Ra.

- Sure. - Sure, don't worry.

But the reporters must still be camped outside.

Don't worry about me and rest beside your grandma.

I'll be right back.

Mr. Ko.

Mr. Ko.

The series by Writer Kim Min Ah we were going to film.

We got the call that it was cancelled.

I see.

Those who wanted to invest have already backed out,

and the existing investors...

are demanding reimbursement and compensation.

The contracts for "Seoul Lady" to air overseas...

have also been terminated.

Those that have already paid us...

will sue us for breach of contract penalties.

[CEO Ko Pil Seung]

Yes, Chairman Gong.

[Letter of Resignation]

[Chairman Gong Jin Taek]

Is this...

your solution?

I'm not trying...

to avoid the matter by resigning.

However, I'm to blame...

for the scandal just as much.

It seems like I must leave GOGO Entertainment...

to prevent the company from any more losses.

That is why this is my first course of action.

For the damage I have already caused,

I will do my best to make up for it one by one.

I'm truly sorry, sir.

Pil Seung handed you his letter of resignation?

Yes, he thought he had to resign from GOGO Entertainment...

to stop people from attacking the company...

and to prevent us from further damage.

How could you have accepted his resignation?

You know how much he has achieved as the in-house director.

He made GOGO Entertainment what it is today,

but he's also the reason why it's now close to shutting down.

He should take responsibility for that as the CEO.

The other employees shouldn't have to suffer.

Honey.

And look at what happened.

The announcement of his resignation...

calmed the public down instantly,

and those who were willing to sue...

are now abandoning the idea.

From the company's perspective, it sure is a relief.

That is why CEO Ko quickly decided to step down.

Anyway, just know that it's done.

I can't sit by and do nothing.

Pil Seung stepped down from the CEO position?

Soo Yeon, are you sure?

All right.

Sun Young, what do you mean by that?

Did Pil Seung step down from his CEO position?

He must have.

Public sentiment almost ruined the production company.

My goodness.

Our poor Pil Seung.

Everyone thinks...

he lied about Park Do Ra.

On top of that,

he is now considered an unethical film director...

who cast his girlfriend solely for personal reasons.

My goodness.

Being with the wrong woman completely ruined him.

Chairman Gong might also withdraw his adoption offer.

I'm home.

- Hey. - Pil Seung, my goodness.

What on earth is this?

Did you really...

quit your job...

as the CEO yourself?

I got the company in trouble.

I should do the responsible thing.

Oh, come on.

All this is happening because you dated the wrong girl.

You quit as CEO of that great company,

your adoption was put on hold,

and your successful career's on the rocks.

You lost everything you worked so hard for!

Why should you go through this for Park Do Ra?

My goodness.

Pil Seung, you...

You should break up with her.

Then the chairman will take you back.

Park Do Ra's responsible for all this,

not you.

Yes, Pil Seung.

Break up with her now. You still can.

You didn't go through with the wedding.

It went wrong.

Break up with her, and all will be well.

Please, Pil Seung.

Leave her now while you still can.

Mom.

Should I ditch the woman I chose...

so the chairman will adopt me?

I can't do that.

I quit my job,

but I'll get back up.

Don't worry.

- My gosh. - What a fool.

Oh, dear.

- My gosh... - Sun Young.

- Sun Young. - Oh, dear.

Don't cry again, Sun Young. You could end up very ill.

- That darn fool. - Why, Mother...

What an idiot.

Stop it. You'll exhaust yourself.

I'm so darn upset.

Hyun Chul!

- What should I do? - Get over here.

Stop crying, Sun Young. You're exhausted.

Stop it.

You quit as CEO of that great company,

your adoption was put on hold,

and your successful career's on the rocks.

You lost everything you worked so hard for!

Why should you go through this for Do Ra?

Honey, I got you...

Where are you going?

Mother.

"Mother?"

How dare you call me that?

Pil Seung lost his CEO title,

his adoption was cancelled,

and the whole world thinks he's a con man.

He lost everything because of you.

He lost everything.

What will you do about his life now?

What will you do about him?

You...

Years ago, you dated Pil Seung,

and then your engagement to someone else hit the news.

Do you know what Pil Seung was like after he thought you had died?

We thought we'd lose him too!

He was like an empty shell!

You broke his heart once already.

Just when things were getting better,

you showed up before him again...

just to drag him down with you?

If you want to die, die on your own!

Go somewhere and die!

I'm sorry, Mother.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, Mother.

You...

If you care for Pil Seung,

you should leave him right now.

If you care for him at all,

even now...

Yes, Mother.

I'll do that.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, Mother.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Mom.

She's asleep.

Here.

Hey, Do Ra. Hang on.

Where are you? I'll come and get you.

Reporters are still around. You can't come in on your own.

Do Sik. I won't go home.

I'll go somewhere for a while.

You'll go somewhere? Where?

I'll tell you...

later on.

I'm worried about Grandma.

I want to take her with me,

but it would be too much for her.

I can't take her with me.

I'll come too, then. I'll pack right now.

No, Do Sik. It would be too hard on both you and her.

That's why.

Are you...

thinking of doing the same thing again?

If you are, I won't ever forgive you.

No, I won't do that.

For a while,

until things calm down, I'll stay somewhere else.

I'm going to break up...

with Pil Seung.

Do Ra.

Do Sik.

I must let him go.

Only then can he live.

I can't ruin his life too.

That would be too hard on him.

You know what I mean, don't you?

Yes.

But you promised.

Don't leave us behind.

Don't do anything stupid, okay?

I promise.

Look after Grandma for me.

I'm sorry.

Thank you.

Where's Do Ra?

She's not here.

What do you mean she's not here?

She left. Don't look for her.

You two aren't meant to be.

Do Ra...

doesn't want to ruin your life.

Do Sik.

You did enough.

I'm grateful for all you did for her.

I feel bad to ask any more of you.

If I feel this bad, how do you think Do Ra feels?

So, please...

forget about her.

What are you talking about?

Where's Do Ra?

Where is she?

I don't know. She said she'd call again.

Do Sik.

Please tell me where Do Ra is.

I really don't know.

She didn't tell me in case I'd tell you.

Pil Seung.

Let her go so she can do what she wants.

Her heart...

must be breaking...

to see your life crumble because of her.

So let her go!

She can't be alone right now.

Don't you get it?

She can't be alone right now!

Please leave a message after the tone.

Park Do Ra, where are you?

This is a mistake.

You can't do this to me.

You promised me that you wouldn't do this.

You said you'd never let my hand go no matter what!

You'd better tell me where you are now. Call me!

Ma'am, isn't Ji Young here?

No, she's not here.

She has nowhere else to go other than here.

Are you sure she's not here?

Tell me if you know anything. Please?

My goodness. I don't know anything.

I haven't seen Ji Young in a while.

I saw her on the news, but that's it.

I see.

Please call me if she comes here. You have to call me.

All right.

Director, wait.

Well, Ji Young really isn't here.

Ji Young isn't here.

Thank you.

[Bed and Breakfast]

Park Do Ra!

Do Ra.

Park Do Ra.

Seriously, why are you doing this to me?

Why must you break my heart like this?

You promised me...

that you wouldn't do this!

You're having a hard time because of me.

No, I'm fine.

I'll have a hard time without you in my life!

Why won't you believe me? Why?

My gosh.

Good riddance.

But...

Park Do Ra and Ko Pil Seung.

By now,

they must've ended things after fighting...

and blaming each other, right?

Ko Pil Seung.

You'll have no choice...

but to ditch her if you want to survive.

Oh, my.

Even the air in the office...

feels cleaner now that Ko Pil Seung is gone.

[CEO Gong Jin Dan]

Let's see.

[CEO Jung]

Why is Mr. Jung calling?

Hey, Mr. Jung.

What's up?

Mr. Gong, we have a problem.

What's going on?

Hwang, whom we had sent to the Philippines,

is back in Korea now.

Hwang? Which one?

What? That guy, Hwang?

He was supposed to stay in the Philippines for good.

He said he'd never come back to Korea!

Right, the thing is,

he said he had to return because of his sick mother,

but he's broke.

He said he'd return to the Philippines...

as soon as his mother received the treatment she needed.

He's asking for money.

What should I do?

Darn it.

I gave him enough money back then. He's asking for more?

[CEO Gong Jin Dan]

Fine.

But you'll have to give him a stern warning.

If he shows up in Korea and asks for money again,

he really will pay for it.

I'll certainly remember that.

Thank you.

He has extorted so much money from me.

If he gets caught, he'll end up in jail too.

Yes.

He won't do anything stupid.

Do Ra.

You can always run away.

So, even if you do decide to run away,

we'll run away together later on.

Before we decide to run away,

let's try everything we can do.

Let's resolve our problems, one by one.

It may take some time,

but let's try our best.

Even if no one...

believes you or us,

let's tell them the truth...

and explain we're innocent before we run away, okay?

Do Ra.

Don't do this again alone.

Let's go.

I'll take you home.

You'll come with me, right?

Yes, come on in.

Anyway, what brings you ladies here?

I heard Sun Young wasn't feeling well.

Here.

What?

We got you some medicinal herbal tea.

Make sure you and Sun Young drink it regularly.

All right. Thank you.

By the way, are the reporters still camping outside?

Not today. I didn't see a single reporter today.

I guess they all gave up.

They were camping outside...

until very late at night without going home.

My goodness.

Pil Seung! Oh, dear.

Pil Seung, where have you been? I couldn't even reach you.

Do you know how worried we were?

- Pil Seung is here? - Pil Seung.

Pil Seung, are you all right?

Where have you been?

I'm fine.

I have something to tell you.

Mom.

Dad.

I've never said this to anyone before.

The truth is, Do Ra tried to take her own life...

because of me.

What?

Pil Seung.

What do you mean she tried to take her own life because of you?

Mom, be quiet.

I'll tell you the truth behind...

the sponsorship scandal everyone is talking about.

Someone hired a re-enactment actor named Hwang Jeong Sik...

to call Do Ra to the hotel...

using the meeting about the ad contract as an excuse...

and to make it look like she had a sponsor.

After that, he fled to the Philippines.

But back then,

I didn't believe Do Ra either.

When Do Ra was being falsely accused like that,

she came to see me thinking I was her last hope.

She said it wasn't true at all and begged me to believe her.

She said she thought I,

of all people, would believe her,

but I didn't.

And...

she took her life that day.

Mom.

Dad.

You two know...

how much pain I was in...

after Do Ra died.

But then,

Do Ra came back to me.

Mom,

how can you ask me to abandon her again?

Do Ra is...

on the edge of a cliff again,

but you're telling me to abandon her.

Mom.

Dad.

Is that what you truly want?

Do you want me...

to regret it my whole life...

and live in agony?

[Beauty and Mr. Romantic]

Who was the one to leak to the press...

about Park Do Ra on the day of Pil Seung's wedding?

Get Hwang out of the country.

He must leave this instant.

I can't take it anymore.

You did nothing...

to deserve such vile comments from people.

Do Ra, we'll tackle this head-on.

Head-on? What do you mean by that?
