QUEEN OF TEARS

Well, I…

So what…

Yes?

…I wanted to say was…

I…

-Yes?

-"I'm sorry."

"About today

and everything that I did until now."

"It won't happen ever again.

I'll treat you better from now on."

That's what I wanted

to say.

But you only have three months to live?

How's that possible?

How can I live without you?

How is that possible?

I'm so dumbfounded

that I don't know what to say.

Are you serious?

Yes, you fool.

I love you, Hong Hae-in.

I love you.

If you can't live without me…

Yes?

Do you want to die together?

What?

You said you couldn't live without me.

I didn't mean I was certain

that I couldn't live without you.

I was simply wondering

if it was possible to do so.

I was curious.

Exactly. Then we should just die together.

It was an official thing back in the day.

It was called sunjang.

They buried you with your spouse.

Right.

Sunjang.

Yes, sunjang.

You can treat me better in the afterlife.

It's not bad.

You've always been good

at making terrifying jokes

with a straight face.

Do you think I'm joking?

You're serious?

I'm saying don't be dramatic.

Tell me.

What exactly did the doctor say?

Where are you hurting?

Did the doctor really say

that it'll only take three--

That you had only three months to live?

Hello, Professor.

The test result?

Can you e-mail it to me?

I don't have time to go there.

We need to go somewhere.

You're free today, aren't you?

The car is waiting downstairs.

I'm not going.

-I didn't even tell you where we're going.

-It doesn't matter.

I refuse to go anywhere with you.

Where are you going right now?

I don't know.

I have no idea where I'm headed.

SUNGMIN UNIVERSITY MEDICAL CENTER

Unlike normal tumors,

these fuzz-like tumors are scattered.

Hold on.

When did I get here?

Sorry?

I remember being in the lobby.

So how am I already here?

It's like I teleported.

Has this ever happened before?

I told you last time.

Sometimes, I had headaches

and was often forgetful. And sometimes…

Our VIPs loved the art class

we held in the first half year.

We invited famous artists…

Restea will be joining us.

These days, sleep quality…

Ten minutes? Thirty minutes?

Sometimes, I couldn't remember

what I did for the past several hours.

Ms. Hong.

I thought you had canceled your plans

to meet with Director Baek Hyun-woo.

Why are you still here?

I even missed an important appointment.

Why didn't you visit me sooner?

I just thought

I had dozed off or zoned out

due to exhaustion

I didn't feel any physical pain.

So…

is there something wrong with me?

You have Cloud Cytoma.

It's a very rare disease.

There aren't many cases worldwide.

It's safe to say

that you're our first Korean patient.

-Do I need surgery?

-No.

I see. It can be treated with medication.

Your case is a bit more complicated

because it's different

from regular tumors.

It's not a clear lump of tumor.

The tumor cells are dispersed

throughout your cranial nerves.

They're spread over a wide area.

It's the most concentrated

near your temporal lobe.

I believe this is the cause

of your temporary memory loss.

It's a rare disease.

The symptoms are nonspecific

and differ from case to case.

If it worsens, you could suffer from

hallucinations or personality disorders.

The problem is that

taking medication won't help much.

And it's too dangerous to receive surgery

since the tumor cells

have spread too much.

Ms. Hong?

Ms. Hong?

Are you okay?

-Okay.

-Pardon?

So that's the case for ordinary people.

I get it.

Now, tell me what treatment I can get.

I want to know about my case, not theirs.

I heard you're raising money

for a new children's hospital.

I can take care of that.

So tell me

how I can get rid of them.

To my knowledge,

there's no medical solution

for this as of now.

The best we can do is give you medication

to alleviate your headache

and temporary memory loss.

However, it's impossible to cure

the disease itself for now--

You've been insinuating

that I'll be dying soon.

Fine. Tell me.

When will I die?

Judging by

the spreading of the tumor cells,

I believe you have about three months.

What does he know anyway?

He knows best as a doctor.

I know my own body.

You're talking like a stubborn, old woman.

Have you ever seen me

eat instant or junk food?

-No.

-Exactly.

I've never drunk soda in my entire life.

Do you think I enjoyed drinking

vegetable juice and watching what I ate?

I meditated in the morning and did yoga

at night for my stress.

I watched my breathing

if there was no oxygen concentrator.

I've tried to stay healthy

since the moment I was born.

I get it.

Calm down.

Even people who harm their bodies

by drinking, smoking,

eating whatever they want,

and not minding their breathing

aren't subjected to this disease.

So why me?

I don't know either.

Fine.

I get that I'm sick.

But why can't they fix me?

People travel to the moon,

and cars drive themselves.

But they can't remove

a tiny tumor in my head?

That's ludicrous.

How about

we go to the hospital tomorrow

and check again?

What for?

We need to be sure.

What do I do if it's a misdiagnosis?

What do you do if it's a misdiagnosis?

I'd be ecstatic.

So let's go and reconfirm everything.

You're on edge right now.

Just forget everything and rest up…

Do you think I can sleep?

Right.

I'm too shocked as well.

I don't know if I can sleep tonight.

It sure feels different

compared to yesterday.

Humming? Really?

Do you want to get buried with her?

I'm sad.

We'll be parting ways.

We'll be parting ways

in three months even without a divorce.

No.

Don't smile.

Go down.

Hae-in?

Wait. She never sleeps in.

What's going on?

Hey.

It's past 7:00 a.m.

What?

What is it?

Morning kiss.

Good morning.

You must be in a good mood to say that.

Even your skin looks better.

You must've slept well.

I tossed and turned all night.

Me?

My skin?

You're wrong.

No, that can't be.

Let me warn you.

You're the only one who knows about this.

So if anyone finds out, it's your fault.

I understand.

But will you keep this a secret forever?

Yes.

Shouldn't your family know?

Of course not.

They should be the last ones to know.

But I think--

I'm very close

to joining the One Trillion Club.

You know what Grandfather said

when he gave me the department store.

"I will choose you over your father

if you make

over one trillion won in sales."

And you want me to ruin that?

When I'm this close?

That's why you won't tell them?

Hong Soo-cheol

is the type who calls my doctor

to confirm if I really got the flu.

Do you think my mom

would be any different?

If they find out about my illness,

I'll be kicked out of the house.

They'd fight over who would get my assets.

I won't allow that.

Over my dead body.

Why do you think Grandfather wants

to see me prior to having breakfast?

Does he want to give me

an earful and get it over with

before eating breakfast?

Any ideas why he wants to see you?

Maybe it's about

how I wanted to launch

that organic New York coffee brand.

The one that you were confident

about launching?

Yes, but I was wrong.

Those scumbags put one over on me

and decided to work with Yeom Sang-jin.

Why is this world

full of immoral scumbags?

Do you think Grandfather knows?

Even I found out only recently.

Risks are required to run a business.

Don't be afraid. It was only force majeure

that the deal fell through.

Yes, you're right. It was only force…

The deal only fell through

due to force majeure.

But I'm still worried that he'll get mad.

He's your grandfather, not Satan.

Be confident and tell him.

-I should, right?

-Yes.

How are you so incompetent?

Grandfather, this deal only fell through

due to force majeure--

What? A deal fell through?

What deal are you talking about?

The launching

of the organic New York coffee.

Isn't that what this is about?

I'm talking about how

you overpaid eight billion won

in corporate tax!

-What?

-Hyun-woo's Legal

found out about it

and will file a rectification claim.

That money would've gone down

the drain had it not been for him!

Isn't your brother-in-law

the finance director?

-Fire him this instant!

-But--

Also, you were so confident

about that coffee deal.

Did that go down the drain too?

-No--

-Answer me!

Why can't you do anything right?

Haven't you learned anything from Hae-in?

-Haven't you?

-You see--

Say something, you scumbag!

Talk, you scumbag!

Make use of that mouth of yours!

-I--

-Answer me, you idiot!

I want to reply, but I can't--

Then talk!

I can't breathe.

What?

Get up!

Doctor Jeong thinks he has panic disorder.

Goodness.

You must've been

so stressed out by your grandfather

This is Hyun-woo's fault.

Why is he so good at his job?

I'm sorry, Mother.

It's my brother's fault.

Honey, that's ridiculous.

Your brother worked hard

and just made a mistake.

Eight billion won isn't that serious.

Eight billion won?

Is all of this just because

of eight billion won?

Where's Hyun-woo?

I'm truly sorry,

but the results are the same.

Do you mean

she really has three months left?

-Exactly three months?

-I can't say.

That's an irresponsible answer.

You've been a neurologist for 30 years.

Please be exact with the percentage.

Please give us the exact number.

That's enough. Let's go.

No, Hae-in. I need to hear this.

Fine then. I'm leaving first.

Sir.

I'd appreciate it if you could be exact.

My life is on the line here.

This is ridiculous.

I'm different.

Why are you here?

Why isn't Hyun-woo picking up?

Is he in his office?

I asked why you were here.

So what if Soo-cheol overpaid

a few billion won?

Hyun-woo could've taken care

of it quietly.

Your grandfather was livid with Soo-cheol.

He must've found out somehow.

Hyun-woo wouldn't do that.

What do you take me for?

I know you were behind it.

I have no time for that. I'm…

a bit distracted by a serious matter.

Soo-cheol had…

a panic attack today.

I see.

You must've been startled.

But, Mom,

I just told you

that I had a serious matter too.

Aren't you curious?

You always know what to do

whether it's big or small.

Right.

I'll take care

of my business.

You should go. This is my workplace.

Hey, don't mind me.

I'm here to see Hyun-woo anyway.

Stop provoking us.

Or I'll torment your son

until the day I die

no matter how busy or distracted I am.

-What?

-I'll torment him forever.

Is that so?

Do you think I'd just sit and watch?

Bring it on.

Why did you want to eat here?

Hey, I don't even feel safe

in our law firm's meeting room.

A public place like this feels safer.

Why is that?

Because I'm risking my life

to go against Queens.

Why would you?

I thought long and hard

after seeing you cry.

I'll help you. Let's have the divorce!

-About that--

-This wasn't an easy decision.

I'm risking my job.

Okay, but don't do it.

Why not?

I'm not getting a divorce.

No? Hey, didn't you tell me

that it was too unbearable?

Well…

I said that because I saw no end to this.

But now that I see one,

I think I can endure it.

What do you mean? What end?

Well…

God granted me a safe parting.

Let's just say that.

Explain in layman's terms.

Come to Hangang Jamwon Parking Lot

Section One in 30 minutes.

What are we doing?

What I'm about to tell you

is confidential.

-So if anyone finds out, it's your fault.

-Come on.

What's this about?

Are you serious?

She told me when I was about

to give her the divorce papers.

That she had three months left.

I met with her doctor today too.

Gosh, Hyun-woo.

Hey.

This is insane. What am I supposed to say?

First…

-Let's shake hands.

-Don't.

Right, you shouldn't show your happiness.

Let me be the scumbag.

So Lady Luck is on your side.

You would've left her

without a single penny to your name

had you gotten a divorce.

Those few seconds saved you.

What? Does this mean

you'll take over Queens?

Do you think

-they're that dumb?

-What do you mean?

Did she sign a prenup or something?

About not dividing her assets?

You know it won't matter

once you file a suit

unless she wrote it in her will.

Yes, she wrote it

in her will.

Seriously?

Yes.

It happened before we got married.

She refused to give anything to me

and even got the will notarized

before we got married.

Conglomerates sure are different.

They're extremely thorough.

It's okay.

I'm just happy

that I can escape from them

safe and sound in three months.

But think about this.

Why did God give you those three months?

Hyun-woo.

Attorney Baek.

Let's talk professionally.

You know she's free to revise

her will in those three months.

You just need to win her over

in the next three months

so that she'll think,

"Gosh, he must love me so much."

"I should hand over my beloved

Queens Department Store before I die."

What are you saying?

Three months is nothing

after serving two years in the military.

Consider that and it'll be easier.

Put your heart and soul

into loving her.

You.

Do you seriously think…

I'm that materialistic?

What's that for?

Today is our wedding anniversary.

So?

I had made a reservation

and prepared a surprise two years ago.

But you got very upset

and told me not to make a scene.

-So?

-So I didn't prepare anything last year.

But you still got mad

that I actually listened

and asked if I would die

if you told me to.

Are you here to nitpick

about my inconsistency?

No, of course not.

What kind of person

brings flowers to nitpick?

Then has our marriage ever been

so lovely that you'd bring flowers

on our anniversary?

To be honest,

I can't say yes to that.

But we could always

make it lovely, can't we?

Happy…

wedding anniversary.

Bring me a vase.

How are things?

Did they fight or anything like that?

No, they didn't. Rather…

-"Rather"?

-They've gotten closer.

-"Closer"?

-Yes.

He takes great care of her.

It's very unlike him.

Has this table always been for ten?

Twelve.

It's always been just the two of us.

But we sat so far apart.

What's wrong with you?

From now on,

I'll be sitting here.

There are too many cons in the contract.

We need to provide

the store's renovation fee.

I don't think

it's that big of a loss on our part

given the popularity of the brand.

Correct, but they're not required

to stay for a certain amount of time.

Let's say we spent five billion won

to bring them in.

We have no right to stop them

if they want to leave after a year.

We're also required

to pay a penalty if they find out

people are selling counterfeit products.

Are you okay?

Hold on. I'm okay--

Don't talk. Let me.

-Please call the ambulance.

-Sorry?

I'm fine.

Are you really?

I just choked on some water.

-Really?

-Yes.

So?

Can we resume?

Yes, sir.

No need for the ambulance.

What's gotten into him?

He's just trying to survive.

Goodbye, sir.

I'll call you later. Goodbye.

Had he stayed still,

she would've been furious

that he didn't do anything.

I really feel bad for him.

It's cold. You should just wait inside.

You're freezing.

What if you catch a cold?

Jeez.

Why are your hands so cold?

Secretary Na, is the car coming soon?

Well, yes.

Will you be okay?

Should I call an ambulance?

There it is.

It's okay.

Gosh.

They should just argue instead.

What's gotten into him?

Didn't I tell you?

Don't be dramatic.

Hae-in, I don't know how to be dramatic.

This is being dramatic.

Sorry.

I don't know why

Hyun-woo reminds me of Grace Kelly.

Didn't she get married to a king?

-He reminds me of Diana.

-That's wrong.

Those two got divorced.

-Sorry.

-Mi-seon.

I came here

to get my hair done, not pulled out.

I said I was sorry.

Maybe it's because we're housewives,

but you really don't treat us well.

-I agree.

-Be honest with us.

Does it annoy you

when we talk about Hyun-woo's looks?

Hyun-woo has always been good-looking.

It's not like that.

Right.

Did you hear?

-About what?

-The daughter of the electronics store.

-Whose in-laws are doctors?

-Yes.

-They're getting a divorce.

-Really?

-Seriously?

-Yes!

-Goodness.

-Goodness.

Jeez, that's not a big deal.

Divorces are common these days.

There are even TV shows

that feature divorced couples.

It's not a shame

to be divorced these days.

Her mom must be so humiliated

to see her neighbors.

She used to brag all the time

about her son-in-law being a doctor.

I thought she was a doctor too.

She always gave advice

to others if they were unwell.

-Tell me about it.

-Why are they splitting?

They're too different.

I told you before.

The marriage won't last if the wife

and the husband are too different.

But I'm not saying that's always the case.

Is Hyun-woo happily married?

Of course, he is.

But you know what they say.

Those in Seoul look down

on people like us.

Right.

And Hyun-woo is married

to a conglomerate family.

My sister-in-law is not like that.

Right. I'm sure.

Then why didn't she attend

your dad's 60th birthday?

People started gossiping afterward.

-Saying?

-That they're not on good terms.

They think Hyun-woo isn't treated well.

Only those who don't treat

their in-laws well

attend birthday parties

and pretend like they do.

But people like her

who are good to their in-laws

don't need to do that.

I see. But are you mad?

Why would I be mad?

Then loosen up those fists,

or you're going to land a punch.

-I have a headache.

-What's wrong with her?

-She's mad.

-I see.

My entire body is sore today.

Don't throw things.

Pinky is watching, you know?

Hyun-woo, that idiot.

I get it. Studying law at SNU

probably made him arrogant,

so it must've been difficult

to brown-nose a conglomerate family.

But wouldn't it be better

to brown-nose them, if anything?

Of course.

I brown-nose middle-schoolers every month.

-Why?

-So they register for the next month.

Hey, it's not my hands

that keep me in business either.

Not at all. It's my mouth.

"Gosh, you're so beautiful today.

Your skin is glowing!"

"You look ten years younger

with this new haircut." That's what I say.

I wish Hyun-woo could be like us.

Gosh.

I doted on him too much.

Mom, shouldn't you do

something about this?

-He might actually get a divorce.

-A divorce isn't a big deal.

Honey.

People divorce when they think

they're on the brink of death.

It's better to divorce then.

The noodles are tasty.

More sesame oil?

Yes, add more.

I prepared different meals for each of you

based on last week's blood test results.

As for the vice-chairman,

I prepared a low-FODMAP diet

for your irritable bowel syndrome.

Thank you.

Where's Grandfather?

He needs to fast

for his medical checkup tomorrow.

I bet he'll live up to 120 years of age.

Mine doesn't have any meat.

It's because of your cholesterol.

Hae-in.

Yes?

You'll receive

a certification of contents tomorrow.

I'm going to file a suit

for how you built your department store

over my land in Gwanggyo.

We already talked about this

when the construction began.

And it wasn't that much land.

Listen. All wars began

because one party stepped over

-another party's land.

-You gave me your permission.

I did, but Attorney Shim was against it.

Rumors might spread about how

I gave you special treatment,

and I might have to pay a gift tax.

So you're going to file

a suit now that the building

has already been built?

You haven't opened yet.

I see. Then should I just demolish it?

Hae-in, she doesn't want

to prolong the case.

She wants to negotiate.

-Hyun-woo.

-Yes, sir.

Look over it with her

and come up with an appropriate measure.

"An appropriate measure"?

What does that mean?

Should I be afraid and back off?

Is this what you meant

when you said bring it on?

You're threatening me with that lawsuit.

What I'm saying is--

I think…

Hyun-woo.

Did you just cut me off?

I apologize.

But since

you've already filed a complaint,

we'll look over it and give you our reply.

However, the press

will learn about this in the process.

And that could cause

a fall in the stock price and more.

I'll have to inform her grandfather.

I'll do that.

Yes, ma'am. Then that'll be all.

She's feeling a bit unwell.

Please excuse us.

You wanted to keep it

a secret from your family.

But?

But wouldn't they suspect

that something's up

if you're all tense

and your fists are trembling?

Right. I know I was acting

out of character.

But what about you?

You interrupted my mom and sided with me.

You also looked me in the eye lovingly.

You were the most suspicious.

Just act like you always have.

When did you ever peel shrimp for me?

It just won't work for us.

It's impossible.

How can we change

after years of living as strangers?

But wasn't that the case

-three years ago?

-What was?

Weren't you in love?

-That was--

-You were both head over heels.

She visited you on a helicopter

and disobeyed her parents. You too.

You weren't sane back then either.

You were crazy in love.

So wasn't that love?

That was years ago.

Yes, you're right.

But let me give you an example.

We learn how to survive in water as kids.

Then we don't swim for decades.

Even if we end up in water again,

we'll still float.

You may think you forgot it all,

but your body remembers.

It's the same with love.

You may think you forgot how to do it,

but your heart remembers

once you get into it.

But this isn't like swimming.

Of course, it is.

Being in love isn't special.

It's strange, isn't it?

We get married because we're in love.

So why does that love disappear?

As a divorce attorney,

I think the problem

is that marriage is exclusive.

Couples don't find the need to try.

So they get disappointed and fight.

Then they come to me.

Marriage just makes it impossible

to stay in love.

-Do you think so?

-I think it's best not to marry

if you want to be in love for a long time.

Please accept this

as a token of my love and loyalty.

Honey.

Are you crazy? She's not your honey.

Long time no see, Secretary Kim.

Hello, ma'am.

You're getting married? You two?

And in Korea at that?

Right.

You must've heard that I was in jail.

That's why you came back.

But what a shame.

I got out.

Calm down, honey.

What did I tell you?

I said I'd spare your life

as long as you left

the country and lay low.

-Right.

-So how dare you

get married in front of all your relatives

when you cheated on me?

Honey.

Honey.

Honey.

Honey!

Ma'am, you have blood--

It's not mine.

-Where?

-On your cheek.

You shouldn't do this

when you're on probation.

You could get aggravated punishment

for as*ault and defamation.

Defamation? What I've done so far

to those cheaters is far from that.

Should I show you

what true defamation is like?

You could be behind bars

until you're 60 if you do that.

Will that be okay?

I've settled with their attorney.

How much?

-Do you want to know?

-Forget it.

It'll be enough

to build a pool in their house.

You shouldn't have done that.

Do you still resent them?

Do you smoke?

-I quit.

-Because I do.

I learned how to smoke

because all my ex-husbands cheated on me.

You can't smoke here.

Let's go.

Go? Where?

Damn it.

I was dying to get out of jail.

But now that I'm out,

there's nowhere to go.

You should go home.

The chairman is waiting for you.

Beom-ja.

I heard you didn't eat all day.

What's it to you

if I starve to death or not?

You put me behind bars

because you didn't care.

Gosh, it wasn't me who did that.

You assaulted an innocent woman,

so you were punished for your actions.

I see.

The woman who k*lled Mom

and became the madam of the house

is completely innocent.

She's not the madam of the house.

She's not in our family register.

All I did was gently grab her

by the hair, but I'm the sinner here.

You can't say it was gentle

when her disc slipped.

Exactly! So mind your own business

and let me die for slipping her disc!

Hey, Beom-ja.

You have the wrong idea about her.

Seul-hee doesn't want anything from us.

She's not interested

in fortune or becoming family.

That's even scarier.

What grand plan could she be scheming

to live with you and not want anything?

You're just a geezer with tons of money!

Hey!

Gosh.

I wonder when she'll wise up.

I shouldn't have hope

since she's already in her fifties, right?

Don't let it bother you.

By the way, I know I'm no match for you.

But you're not focused on the game at all.

What do you mean?

-Goodness.

-Staring at the board won't help.

You need to see the bigger picture.

You're right.

You'll get caught if you run away in fear.

But if you try to catch the tiger

without being prepared,

you'll lose everything.

Goodness.

This is why janggi

can teach you life lessons.

I took over your palace.

Where will the king flee to now?

Checkmate.

Did you see this coming?

Or were you just lucky?

I'm not sure.

You need to grant me

one favor since you lost.

What is it?

I'll tell you when I have one.

Honey, did you see that?

I think I just saw a sh**ting star.

I didn't know I could see them in Seoul.

You dreamed of sh**ting stars

before having Hae-in.

Did I?

You were excited because you thought

you'd be having a baby girl.

I'm not sure. I don't quite remember.

Honey, don't be so harsh on Hae-in.

What did I do?

How long will you let your past haunt you?

You should let go and move on.

That's what you said back then.

Your father didn't want any issues,

so you obliged.

I still don't understand

why Su-wan had to die.

It was just an accident.

No one is to blame.

You're right. It's no one's fault,

but Su-wan is gone.

I'm still upset and in pain

every single day.

To others…

To you, it's just a past event.

But I relive that moment every day.

I'm haunted by the day

when I lost my child.

So don't expect me to be reasonable.

Why hasn't she come home yet?

Is she really sick?

She has great stamina.

To be honest,

her chance of survival is very low.

But miracles do happen.

Sorry?

How often do these miracles occur?

Do they happen often?

During my 30 years as a doctor,

I've witnessed many patients

recover miraculously

from even less hopeful illnesses.

Don't lose hope.

CLINICAL CASES FOR BRAIN TUMORS

MALIGNANT TUMOR

DON'T GIVE UP ON TREATMEN

"Given three months to live

but still alive after 30 years."

Thirty years?

Seriously?

I didn't know it was this common.

I guess a doctor's prediction

isn't always correct.

This is-- Gosh.

This is unlike the dramas.

"The tumors disappeared after waking up.

A medically impossible case."

How could it be medically impossible?

Is this the reality

of modern medicine? Really?

TERMINALLY ILL PATIENTS CAN STILL RECOVER

GIVEN 3 MONTHS TO LIVE,

BUT STILL ALIVE AFTER 30 YEARS

THE MIRACULOUS HEALING

OF MY PANCREATIC CANCER

THOSE WHO CLING ONTO HOPE

Hey, Hae-in.

When did you come in?

Why are you sleeping here?

Sleep on the bed.

Right, I should.

You should too.

Good night.

Hyun-woo.

Yes?

To be honest,

I suspected you.

What?

I thought you'd be happy

to hear that I was dying.

I thought that was why

you were being so good to me.

I also suspected that you had

an ulterior motive.

I admit.

I was a bit suspicious.

I didn't know

you had looked up those things.

These miracles happen

more often than you think.

What…

You don't have to come here.

Don't worry. I will live no matter what.

I acted tough,

but I was shocked to hear my diagnosis.

I was dispirited.

A part of me didn't care

about what would happen to me.

"But if I really had only three months,

would receiving treatment even help?"

"Should I just give up?"

"No one would mourn my death."

"Not even my family."

I had all sorts of thoughts.

I see.

But there's one person.

You of all people want me to live.

Me?

Yes. Of course.

Yes, I do.

It had been tough for me.

It was too much to handle,

but seeing you gives me hope.

I did my own research.

Unlike in Korea,

there were similar cases abroad.

There are many labs out there

that are developing new drugs.

They'll be able to speed up the process

as long as they have the funds.

I'm going to actively look

into supporting them.

Really?

Are you that happy?

Yes.

Of course, I am.

Don't worry.

I'm not going to die

that easily for your sake.

Is this for your social media account?

What if it's just a part of your face?

I really want the world to see you.

But the media will post articles about me.

And your parents don't want that.

I don't want to worry them.

You're really…

All right.

Also,

Jun-h* told me to keep it a secret

since it wasn't confirmed yet.

Our finance director? About what?

He feels terrible

about the eight billion won.

It's totally fine.

Still.

He's trying to hook you up with someone

to make up for that.

-Who?

-A private equity fund investor.

He was the one

who invested in the organic coffee deal

for Yeom Sang-jin.

Really?

His name is David Yoon.

He's Korean-American.

He recently came to Korea.

He has control

of Middle Eastern oil money,

and he's here to find new investments.

He's looking to invest

at least a couple trillion won.

Hae-in has been trying

to bring Hercyna into her store.

And David is the reason

why the brand could launch

their first Asian flagship store in Seoul.

Hi.

Hi.

Congratulations. I'm loving

your food section's new renovation.

I eat at your food court often these days.

Right. I heard you came by often.

Anyway, Royal still has

a long way to go to be on your level.

Our desserts need some tweaking.

We have a lot to do.

Once the fountain plaza is built

on the first floor,

we're going to bring in Hercyna

and we'll work from there.

No, we need to work harder.

So what if our food section is great?

A department store without Hercyna

is just a big restaurant.

We also have space for Hercyna.

Do you want a tip?

Sure, if you want to give me one.

Okay.

I'm sure you know that Mr. Hermann

puts company value and mindset

before anything else.

He believes that those

who form good relationships with others

are the best business partners.

That's his belief.

-So?

-Look around you.

Everyone here has brought

their spouse, lover, or family members.

You're the only one here

who came alone.

What?

You impress me.

Everyone knows that you have no friends,

but how could you think of coming here

of all places by yourself?

You're the only lone wolf here.

It's just you, Hae-in.

Poor you.

BAEK HYUN-WOO

-Where are you?

-I'm in a trial.

What did he say?

What do you mean?

You were frantically calling

your husband for help.

Is he not coming?

-He's in a trial.

-How fitting.

-What?

-What can you do?

You can't tell him to bail.

I think that was a fitting excuse.

It's not an excuse.

He's really in a trial.

Why are you so serious?

I was just kidding.

Hey, don't mind the rumors.

I don't believe them.

-What rumors?

-I'm sure you heard.

That you two have separated

and will divorce soon.

That he only married you for your money.

I don't even want to talk about them.

But you have.

I've barely begun.

You should've had an ordinary marriage.

Even gossipers wouldn't have much

to talk about had you married someone

on your own level.

I've realized something in life.

Marriage is about finding a life partner

who looks in the same direction as you.

My past four years of marriage

have been nothing but peaceful.

And that piqued my curiosity

about couples who couldn't get along.

How does it feel?

I've never been mad at my husband before.

Why are you asking me?

You shouldn't take your anger out on me

for not being loved by your husband.

You should've just married Yoon Eun-sung.

Why would you suddenly bring him up?

You don't know anything, do you?

He's Mr. Hermann's right-hand man.

He's the key to reaching Mr. Hermann.

What?

Hey, he became really successful.

He's not the same guy from university.

He's in charge of managing

sheikhs' finances now.

That's why I went

to greet him at the airport.

Eun-sung.

It's been a while.

You should've let me know

if you were back in Korea.

Don't you remember

the last thing you said to me?

To not contact you.

-I did?

-Yes.

I doubt that.

"Let's continue to stay in touch."

Isn't that what I said?

You're right. I told you

not to reach out to me ever again

because you kept crossing the line.

Right. But now,

it seems like you have something to say.

I'm sure you already know this,

so I'll just say it.

Ye-na and I are in a brutal competition

to bring Hercyna into our stores.

It seems like you have

a good relationship with Mr. Hermann.

So tell me.

-Can you help me?

-Me?

Why should I?

To be honest,

I don't remember much of the past.

So why don't we just say that we broke up

on good terms?

When will the trial end?

Is it almost over?

-What about the trial?

-I won.

I won quickly to come here.

Here you go.

One non-alcoholic c*ck, please.

What did you say marriage was again?

Finding a life partner who looked

in the same direction as you?

I didn't get it at first,

but seeing your husband made it clear.

What do you mean?

You see,

I'd rather look at my husband

than elsewhere.

He's that handsome.

Here you go.

Honey, have you tried this yet?

It's really something.

-Did you come here to eat?

-What?

I don't want to see it.

I'm talking about your face.

Go away.

A heart? You little…

Here.

Thank you.

I thought of Hae-in now and then.

So it feels odd

to meet her husband.

Sorry?

Well, Hae-in and I

had a good relationship in the past.

I see.

Hae-in isn't the type

who has had

many good relationships in her lifetime.

That's quite impressive.

To be honest,

I liked her a lot.

I see.

It doesn't bother you?

Sorry?

That only means one of two things.

You trust her completely,

or you just don't care.

Is it the latter?

I'm just kidding.

Mr. Yoon.

Coming.

Goodbye.

That b*stard.

How did he know?

I'm offended.

How ridiculous.

To be honest, I liked her a lot.

If he truly

liked her a lot,

then he should've worked hard

and married her.

Then he would've saved my life.

What's the point of telling me

about his feelings now?

Is he teasing me or what?

What an annoying scumbag.

Hello.

-We meet again.

-Hello.

Gosh. Isn't this place teeming?

You're right.

More than half of these people

came to see him.

They want to meet him.

What does he do?

He's a tycoon.

Even the wealthiest people

from Wall Street

borrow oil money from him.

Even Chairman Yeom is dying to meet him.

Soo-cheol is trying to meet with him too,

but it's not easy.

And this Yoon Eun-sung attended

the same university as Hae-in?

Yes.

I don't know

what to say to you at times like this.

Why would you feel bad?

I should've introduced

someone like him to Ms. Hong Hae-in.

What can she do? She dug her own grave.

Still, I regret not trying harder.

To do what?

I think you're mistaken.

I'm always grateful

that you didn't try harder.

I'm truly thankful

that you excluded me from your list

of marriage candidates.

So spare yourself that useless guilt.

Why did you call?

You overheard us.

Invite Yoon Eun-sung to our family hunt.

Right. I can guarantee

that he'll come if I tell him to.

But why should I do that?

I have no reason to.

I'll withdraw…

the lawsuit.

Hae-in.

Here is the number of preys you can catch.

There's no limit for magpies and crows.

As for boars, water deer, and pheasants,

you can each catch a maximum of five.

An accident might occur

if you get in each other's way

and mistake each other for an animal.

So make sure you stay in your course.

You should not hunt boars by yourself.

Do not aim or turn your back on them

if you're alone.

Can we let her use a firearm?

As you already know…

What can we do? She chose to carry one.

What if she commits m*rder?

Look at that murderous look.

She should've gone

to a mental hospital, not jail.

Let's go.

Aunt, we need to move.

Over here.

Don't hold the firearm like that.

Did I hit it? I can't see very well.

You did, Father.

The biggest one fell. Gosh.

I saw it too, Grandfather. Gosh!

Did you? I believe I did as well.

You did.

Did you really get it?

I don't think any of them fell.

Hyun-woo, are you a Native American?

Or a Mongolian hunter?

Is your vision that great?

I think it fell into the woods.

I'll tell our men to get it.

What if Hyun-woo goes home

empty-handed this year as well?

Right.

He's right.

You've never caught anything on our hunts.

We come here every year. You should learn.

Are you afraid of g*ns?

You served in the military.

So? Should I teach you?

That's okay.

You should worry about yourself.

I'm already good at it.

That's why I offered to teach you.

What about you? Are you any good?

I'm not sure.

I doubt I can hold a candle to you all.

He's humble in every way.

Right.

Let's see who'll catch the pheasants

for this year's dumpling soup.

Let's begin.

Let's go.

-Let's go.

-All right.

Catch something for once.

There's a reason why

my grandfather brings us to this mountain

to hunt every year.

What is it?

Does he want us to pretend

like he successfully shot a duck

and praise him?

Stamina is important when hunting,

but quick judgment

and objective decision are also required.

And those are all virtues

that those who do business should have.

Is that why you catch so many every year?

To prove to him

that you're a worthy businesswoman?

Of course.

And I'll catch the most this year as well.

Take your time.

Yes, it's ready.

It's near the middle

of that course.

WILD BOAR HABITA

RESTRICTED AREA

PROPERTY OWNED BY QUEENS

Where in the world is she?

Your call cannot be connected.

Darn it.

Sorry. I thought you were a water deer.

Why are you here?

This isn't your course.

Is it not? This is my first time hunting.

Don't you know it could be fatal to invade

someone else's territory when hunting?

I didn't know that.

I look forward to learning more from you.

You shouldn't do anything

in other people's territory.

You wanted me to teach you, didn't you?

What's wrong with me?

That's just a dumpling.

That's just pheasant soup.

It's a pheasant dumpling.

Pheasant soup.

Don't fool yourself. This isn't real.

Snap out of it, Hae-in.

Snap out of it.

What do you say?

I'm dying. I have three months left.

I love you, Hong Hae-in.

I love you.

Are you okay?

You refused to date

that civil servant or that music teacher.

Why do you suddenly want a housewife?

Didn't you say

that intern was going to get fired soon?

Someone who's jobless?

I don't want to pressure you, but how

will you save up money to buy a house?

I agree.

I didn't expect a wealthy daughter-in-law

just because you studied law at SNU.

I just hoped

she wouldn't be poorer than us.

That's all.

-Exactly.

-I've never felt this way before.

She's always

on my mind.

I wonder why her clothes

always have holes in them.

I'm worried

that she'll go around kicking things.

I'm worried that she'll get scolded again.

I think of her when I eat tasty food.

I want to bring her some.

I'm so distracted

because of her.

She'll be the death of me.

Then marry her.

-Honey.

-Mom.

Marry her if it's that serious.

It's better than dying.

Yes, that's true but…

Yes, I will.

We're going to get married.

And I'll protect her forever.

QUEEN OF TEARS

Are there women whose hearts still race

when they see their husbands

despite being married

for over three years?

No way.

I noticed that the fence was pried open.

You actually believe that he loves you.

Yes, I do.

I've never been this annoyed

at someone's smile.

I'm going to k*ll

every single scumbag who betrays

and stabs me in the back.

Don't be afraid.

It was because I was scared.

That's why my heart was racing so much.
