01x04 - Episode 4

Post by bunniefuu »

THIS IS A WORK OF FICTION.

ALL CHARACTERS, COMPANIES, ORGANIZATIONS,

LOCALES, PRODUCTS, AND EVENTS

ARE USED IN A FICTITIOUS MANNER.

ALL SCENES WITH ANIMALS

WERE FILMED SAFELY UNDER EXPERT GUIDANCE.

Mom, don't you realize I live alone?

Why did you send so much kimchi?

I usually get a kilo,

and that lasts me for a month.

No, of course your kimchi

tastes so much better, but…

I don't want to inconvenience you.

What?

The ancestral rite for Grandpa?

Oh, it's that time of the year already?

Yes, all right. I'll see you then.

All right.

Oh, and Mom, thanks for all the food.

All right, bye.

Jeez, this is enough for two years.

Little does she know,

I'll be leaving forever in two weeks.

Damn, it just has to be good too.

I'm going to be homesick

before I even leave.

Let's just clean the house.

Jeez, seriously?

Let's make the bed.

I tell her every time, yet…

Jeez.

Oh, she finally got rid of them.

That's so much better.

JUNG JI-h*

Her final client, huh?

She still hasn't cleaned this up.

Jeez.

Should I have a lollipop?

This is from the CCTV

installed on the street.

Here you are,

walking past the convenience store.

And this is from the dash cams

of the cars parked nearby.

Don't tell me

you're suspecting me, are you?

I showed up when this woman

was with the helmet mobster.

In fact, I practically saved her life.

Since we're on the topic of the helmet,

this isn't a model or a design

that's available on the market.

-It may be custom-made.

-Oh wow.

And this is from the CCTV

installed at the mansion gate.

I checked the footage

from before the incident.

You checked it yourself?

Yes, dating back to a month ago.

Do you see right here?

It's a camera flash.

They'd hide here

and take pictures from time to time.

And this is the CCTV footage

of where they were looking.

The assailant's target

isn't Ms. Choi Sang-eun,

but Mr. Kang Hae-jin.

You've been harassed by stalkers,

haven't you?

And before you moved here,

a divorced woman was assaulted

simply because she lived

in the same building as you.

I guess you haven't heard

that I caught all those stalkers.

Anyway, for now,

this may be an act by someone

who has misunderstood your relationship.

Aren't you jumping to conclusions?

I haven't jumped to any conclusions,

but if my deductions

turn out to be correct,

they'll probably

try to approach you again.

So you've made a very important discovery.

That I didn't go through all that

because I deserved it.

As for you, Mr. Kang Hae-jin,

you don't have to feel so guilty

about being so stingy over a shirt

to someone who was assaulted

because of you.

Were you hurt in any way?

Well, not really.

I didn't know

because you looked so indifferent.

I'm not someone to make a fuss

about these things, you see.

Let's go. I'll see you off.

See me off?

Whatever the case,

it's true that someone harbors

malice towards you, Ms. Choi.

But Ms. Choi…

you sure can hold a grudge.

I never knew until now.

You should go.

I can take care of myself.

Then please excuse me.

Wait, please!

Why did you give me that ticket

when you won't be coming with me?

Oh, were you perhaps…

offended?

Well, I wouldn't quite say "offended."

Then I'll come with you too.

Oh, so you'll come with me?

I wasn't begging you to come with me.

Actually, I have a ticket myself.

And I was thinking of

going to the concert.

Then… you were planning

to come with me, after all?

-Not quite.

-What the hell?

Well…

while I dread forcing myself to be social,

I just happened to have

some spare tickets,

and you were the only person

I was close enough to

who wouldn't get the wrong idea.

Why wouldn't I get the wrong idea?

I wouldn't, of course.

But still,

were you going to ignore me

once we were there?

Well, I apologize

if I upset you in any way.

It's okay if you don't

want to go to the concert.

No, I'm going.

I'll see you then.

Hae-jin, shall we look

for a different place?

Somewhere even more private.

Sure, let's do that.

In fact, why not just move

to a deserted island?

Is he sleeping?

No. How do you expect me to?

But your face is glowing.

Have you been sleeping well?

Sleeping well? Please.

One stalker broke into my old house,

one installed spycams on my doorsteps,

and one sent me a knife

smeared with her own blood.

I told you to get them locked up.

Why the last-minute settlements?

-That's why they keep doing it.

-One is a minor.

One sent 370 letters of apology

to the media,

and one was your old classmate

who turned himself in,

saying he did it out of

his inferiority complex.

Even your fans pity him.

We can't get him locked up.

Think of your reputation!

Why should a victim be worried

about his reputation?

Look.

I'm about to lose it.

But nothing has been confirmed yet!

Don't get so worked up

over your neighbor's delusional--

This neighbor is a judge.

You're just stressed about your schedule.

How about a break

after you finish the current drama?

I'll take it upon myself

to give you some time off.

But first, let's work

on your explanation to the media.

-What explanation?

-It's nothing.

Just a petty rumor, no more.

Take a look at this.

"According to our sources,

he wouldn't stop making video calls

even while on a date

with his girlfriends."

"Even A, the dream girl of every man,

has failed to seize his interest."

"It's possible that he's been

using these scandals

to cover up his sexuality."

I'm so fed up with this.

It would be harder

not to recognize this as you.

Anyway, leave it to me to handle this.

I know you hate those rumors.

Such terrible timing too.

Hey, it's nothing for you to worry about.

But what if people

start suspecting me too?

I'm always following you around.

That's what worries you?

Of course.

I get it, Jung-han.

Would you rather worry

about finding a new job instead?

Then you won't have that problem anymore.

-Right?

-Wait! Sir!

Sir!

Thanks for the ticket.

Hope you enjoy the show.

He even got the good seats.

So he'd rather give up

all of these seats than be social?

Hey, can you believe it?

My seat was in the back row,

but some hot guy came up to me

and offered to switch with his VVIP seat.

He says he'll sit at the back.

Amazing, huh?

Totally, yes.

I loved it!

Yet you fell asleep?

Judge Jung.

Oh, sir.

Are you here for the concert too?

It's not really my cup of tea,

but I'm here to escort my queen.

So, where is your team?

Have they gone to the restroom?

Judge Jung, I went out of my way

to get those tickets

so you can earn some brownie points.

Did you get to show off

how hard it was to get them?

Why don't we stay and say hello too?

Well…

What is it?

What is it this time?

You don't look too good, Judge Jung.

I wonder why.

I didn't come with them.

-What?

-Why not?

I didn't want to sabotage my way of life

to get on the good side with my team.

But most of all,

I didn't want to look like

I had an ulterior motive.

-That's why…

-That's why

you came here alone?

Did you enjoy the concert, then?

Look, Jung Ji-h*.

I've never thought this lowly of you.

Are you a sociopath?

This is hardly normal.

There you were.

You should at least say…

Oh, they're the ones

who gave us the tickets.

He happens to be my boss too.

Oh, I see.

Thank you so much,

it was a lovely concert.

And who is this?

I'm, well…

This is my wife.

What?

Wife?

As in your spouse?

Or partner?

I looked all over for you.

There's plenty of steak and wine here.

I've seen all kinds of cases,

but I've never been this shocked.

He got married without telling anyone,

and he's so devoted that he gave her

the tickets he got from his superior.

I guess I haven't seen

everything just yet.

He may not sound like it,

but he's actually

in a really good mood right now.

To finally see that his dear pupil

is a human, after all.

-Am I right?

-Honey.

Is my husband that bad?

He can't tell a white lie

or look after his team.

He's by far the court's

least favorite judge

and the most avoided person.

-Honey.

-Goodness.

Didn't you know?

Not at all.

At home, he only ever talks

about his team.

Like how much they've got on their plates.

I'd like to invite them sometime

for a delicious meal,

but my husband is just too shy.

Who, Judge Jang?

I can't believe it.

And to think he's kept silent

about his marriage all this time.

Well, that's…

Can I tell them?

Tell them what?

Well, you see…

I was pregnant.

We'd been co-writing a thesis

at college, you see.

I was the only woman.

Everyone was up all night, working so hard

until their noses were bleeding.

so there was no way

that I could tell them

about my wedding

or about my pregnancy.

Yes, I totally understand.

Honestly, it's the men

who like to gossip more.

If you had said anything…

"So she still had time

for all that, did she?"

"Come to think of it,

she was a bit of a vixen."

"Who knows, she may have flirted

with the professor too!"

-Honey.

-So well done.

What you did was wise.

But I felt bad for my husband,

so I only wanted to keep it a secret

from my acquaintances,

but he…

He told me it didn't matter

as long as he had me.

Oh my, Hallelujah.

Judge Jung, you're such a good man.

Honey.

So you're saying…

you have children too?

It didn't go well, did it?

Gosh, it must've been all the stress.

You're right.

Your hands are so warm, ma'am.

Gosh, you poor thing.

Looks like you had

no reason to worry, dear.

And you said Judge Jung was smart

but had terrible character.

His team is gritting their teeth

about how indifferent he is.

She says he's just shy.

Gosh, people are so heartless.

Didn't you see how he never spoke

a word throughout dinner?

What makes you think so highly of him?

I could totally tell

by looking at his wife.

She was impeccable.

The way she was looking at him

was just so sweet.

-Judge Jung has to be a good man.

-Honey.

We had fun tonight. I'll see you later.

I hope to see you again!

-Let's go, my queen.

-Sure.

You drank and talked too much tonight.

Oh, please.

You said you loved me for that.

Of course.

Shall we head back to our cars

at the concert hall?

Sure, but…

why did you tell them

you didn't drive here?

It's a bit strange for a married couple

to drive separately on a weekend.

I'm sorry about tonight.

No. I'm quite pleased

to have finally done my share.

So why did you introduce me as your wife?

-Well, because…

-"Because you're my wife."

"Aren't you my wife on paper?"

Did I guess that right?

It doesn't take me long

to figure someone out.

Do you also think

that I have a problem?

This is a serious question, isn't it?

I'll give you a serious answer.

In my recent conversations with you,

there were moments that made me wonder

if you're the same person

I've known for the past five years.

But the way I see it,

this is your problem.

It's the door that's broken, not the room.

The door?

Yes, the door is broken,

so people keep turning back at the door.

It's a shame

I didn't know about this a little sooner.

Right?

How so?

I'm an expert

on interpersonal relationships.

I could've given you a tailored solution.

I've actually been

studying the subject on my own.

How can you teach yourself

interpersonal relationships?

Gosh, I'm sorry.

Ms. Choi?

Yes?

Will you fulfill

the rest of our contract period?

But why?

Well…

I haven't finished analyzing

the CCTV footage,

and I feel like

I'll need to contact you quite often.

I'll make sure

to take care of the recent incident,

so you don't have to worry about it.

All right, then.

I'll teach you my secret

for the rest of the time.

How to be loved by everyone.

But why would I want to be--

Come on.

KANG'S AGENCY DENIES g*y RUMORS

THEY WILL HAVE ZERO TOLERANCE

FOR MALICIOUS COMMENTS

Seriously, I hate him.

What's wrong with being g*y?

It's not that big of a deal.

It's always people

with a lot to hide like him

who make a fuss about the tiniest rumors.

I hate him so much.

Why are you so down?

How are the preparations

for your work visa going?

You need me to look into anything?

No.

Did you have a farewell party

with your family?

Sang-eun.

Can you feel my head?

Why?

-Do you feel a bump?

-Yes.

-Right?

-Did you hurt yourself?

It's been over 20 years

since I had this bump.

Was it when I was seven?

My mom would only buy organic soap for me,

and one day, I opened the bathroom door,

not knowing my big sister

was in the shower,

and she just lost her temper.

She never gets mad.

So I told Mom that she was using my soap.

Jeez, you're such a brat.

I was seven.

Anyway, my mom took the steel ladle

she'd been stirring the soup with

and started beating my sister.

Even at that age, that was shocking.

So I ran away,

but I felt this sudden pain

in the back of my head!

What happened?

My other sister,

who was pooping at the same time,

had chucked a soap at me.

It was a Saltrang too.

What's a Saltrang?

Well, it's…

Never mind, you're too bougie to know.

It was the cheapest soap out there.

Anyway, that's how I got this bump.

So why are you telling me this now?

Exactly. That's what I mean.

Why do I keep remembering these things?

I always slept on my side

because of this lump,

and I was furious at my sisters.

But these days, I keep…

feeling bad for them.

And I want to give them a hug.

Jeez. They were such witches back then.

Woo Gwang-nam.

-What?

-You still haven't told them, have you?

Are you going to tell them?

Or are you not going to leave at all?

I'll tell them and go.

I'm going to.

What about you?

Have you said your farewells?

Me?

It's not like I have anyone

to say goodbye to.

I've asked several times,

but the restrictions

will be lifted, right?

Of course.

It's confidential, but it's 100%.

John is an architect

sought by many around the world.

I've set the table

as per Director Kang Sun-jin's orders,

so the rest is up to Kangjin now.

But if I were you,

I wouldn't expect

an amicable partnership with that man.

Are you here to see Father?

No way.

I'm here to see my eldest son.

Shall we go out for a meal…

I see you're busy.

About your brother, Hae-jin.

I should tell him to move back home.

They keep writing

strange articles about him,

and he's been very edgy with me.

I'm worried about that boy.

I'm sure you got on his nerves again,

Madam Choi.

Oh, please.

That's not true.

Anyway, Hae-jin will listen to you

if not anyone else.

-You still don't know.

-What?

The place that your biological son

dreads and fears the most in this world

is our house, all right?

Take a hint.

Hey.

Does he like the land?

Okay.

What?

Contract?

What kind of stupid nonsense is that?

Of course the contract comes first!

Who cares about the green belt?

Throw a noose on him first,

no matter what!

I'll take responsibility

for the 15 billion won deposit, okay?

Yes, of course.

Okay.

Mother, let me talk to him.

I should do my filial duty

as your eldest son.

Sure, thank you!

What's up with him?

When he gets all arrogant like that,

he always ends up

getting into big trouble.

Knock, knock.

How about next, next Friday?

I'll bring the liquor. A single malt.

Pardon? I'm not following…

You wanted to invite the team over.

I'll invite them for you,

just have a generous dinner ready.

Oh no.

Actually, I decline.

And I decline your declination.

Besides, I've already told your team.

And their eyes…

widened in surprise.

Sir.

Sir, I don't wish to invite

anyone to my place.

You are abusing your authority

as my superior.

It's a form of hierarchical violence…

Violence?

This is the court.

So sue me, like a professional.

And I'll tell everyone

how I gave you VIP tickets

that cost 300,000 won each

for the harmony of the infamous

Family Division led by Judge Jung,

but they were lost during their delivery.

That you, Judge Jung,

a cold-blooded workaholic,

embezzled the tickets to enjoy

a date with your wife.

I can make you the star

of the court for another reason.

Next, next Friday, did you say?

That's the quickest judgment

you've made in a while.

Thanks to your initiative, Director,

Kangjin will be the owners

of a new landmark in Korea.

I owe it all to you, Madam Tiffany.

For Madam Tiffany…

Yes, we will pay out

her incentives right away.

He has one request.

Certainly.

Hello, sir. How are you doing?

Oh, I'm really sorry,

but I'm actually retired.

Should I cancel my family trip?

Of course. It's a housewarming party.

-So what are we getting him?

-That's right!

-Should we all get something?

-Wow.

It's on the intranet!

Where?

Wow, do you see that?

FAMILY DIVISION

SENIOR JUDGE JUNG JI-h*

Gosh, I'm so curious.

What do you do at a boss's house party?

I've never been to one.

Me neither!

Wait, where does he even live?

What? No idea.

If she wants to make a fresh start,

I shouldn't bother her.

This mother gave up everything

to get her son

into the best university in the country.

Next, she wanted a daughter-in-law

worthy enough for her son,

but her son wasn't interested

in marriage at all.

I'm not interested in marriage or kids.

I'm afraid I'll meet a woman

just like my mother

and end up being

the same kind of parent as her.

The very thought scares me.

It's been a while since I quit.

Thank you for coming all this way

when I didn't even make

an appointment, Ms. Choi.

Do you remember

when I told her we were getting divorced,

and she confronted you?

Oh, you mean how she gave me

a nice cold shower?

I gave you everything

you wanted, didn't I?

As you wanted,

I got married to a woman I didn't deserve,

and you got to show off

your trophy daughter-in-law.

Whether I stay with her forever

is up to me, all right?

It's my life!

It's about time…

you stay out of my life.

I hadn't talked to my mother since.

But then, my little sister called me.

She told me Mother was on her deathbed.

I barely saw her before she passed away.

Do you know what her last words were?

That she was too embarrassed

to tell everyone her son was divorced.

She was worried

about how I'd look at her wake

without a wife by my side.

I guess this is the last thing

I can ever do for her.

I'm sorry for your loss.

But you know, you're still so beautiful.

You haven't aged a bit since your wedding.

They say young people these days

choose not to have children

so they can stay in shape.

I bet the same goes for her too.

This is why you don't want

a daughter-in-law who's too good.

You should really have children, you know.

Sang-eun.

I'm so sorry.

I know you guys are divorced.

Mom asked me to give this to you.

She said this would be the last time

we ever see you.

Thank you so much for today.

Right.

This is for today.

Thank you.

It turns out…

there was a reason

your mother wanted me at her funeral.

Here.

Please excuse me.

I wanted to beg for your forgiveness

the moment you parted ways,

but I was diagnosed with cancer.

I'd harassed my son all his life,

so I couldn't be a burden to him now.

That's why I turned back

after watching you from afar.

I'm to blame for all of Seon-h*'s faults.

As a single mother

who had to raise him all alone,

I feared that he'd inherit

my life of poverty.

But I ended up making him unhappy.

So could you lay all the blame on me,

and give my Seon-h* another chance?

There.

That should help cheer you up.

So they won't ever do wire transfers?

Those weasels.

They're ready to cut ties

if anything goes wrong.

I guess Yu Mi-h* will live a long life.

This product here was restocked

after six months of waiting,

and it's currently the only piece

left in Korea.

I guess without love, there's no hatred,

and without hatred, there are no tears.

I don't remember

the last time I shed tears.

This is just too damn sweet.

MADAM YU

MADAM YU

Change your mind already?

I thought you never wanted

to see me again.

Hello?

People aren't always

so consistent, you know.

Life must be so easy for you.

How about a cup of tea?

Wasn’t she the one who wanted to cut ties?

Sorry, but I'm busy preparing

to leave the country.

I'm moving abroad.

But I bet you're not even curious

about where I'm moving to.

Anyway, have a good life,

Madam Yu.

I'm hanging up.

No.

No, Choi Sang-eun.

Don't you start crying.

What was I thinking?

Seriously…

There's no use talking to her.

Unit 102.

You can't throw out your trash like this.

Surely, you've seen me sorting your trash

time and time again.

Are you doing this on purpose?

It's like I'm your servant, and…

Oh my, what's this?

Oh my.

Do you eat anything other than fruits?

You should eat better.

Excuse me.

CIVIL SERVANT ID: SONG MIN-SEOK

NATIONAL POLICE AGENCY

That woman just now.

Is she Ms. Yu Mi-h*?

There was nothing out of the ordinary

since that day.

-Ms. Choi?

-Yes?

Oh, I'm sorry.

I just got off work,

and I'm a bit out of it.

I thought you said you'd retire.

Yes. But sometimes,

I'm required to do some customer service.

So you do customer service?

Like, for one day?

Not really.

Today was a huge exception.

The last one, at least.

I even cleared my client list.

Right.

Good call.

I don't think it's a good idea

to complicate relationships,

whether they be business or personal.

I bet you never have trouble with anyone.

You're an expert.

You're quite right.

But that's not because I'm an expert,

but because there's no one in my life

who's worth all of that.

Oh, maybe there's just one,

but he's such a softie.

-Ms. Choi.

-Yes?

I'd like your advice.

There's been some trouble at work.

Like what, for example?

I may have to open my door for once.

Door? What door?

Well, the door you mentioned last time.

You know, my door.

Oh, that door!

What, that door?

Right.

Do you think it can be repaired

on such short notice?

It won't be an easy task.

You see, this isn't a simple issue,

so it may take some time,

but let's try it.

First of all, Mr. Jung,

try relaxing your entire body.

Close your eyes,

and relax all the muscles in your body.

That's right,

imagine you're in a pool of water.

Or you're floating in space.

Yes, very good!

Now try relaxing a little more.

So even if someone came up and pushed you…

Did you get startled?

I think so, yes.

See? That's it.

Even you show your emotions

when you're taken by surprise.

This is exactly what I mean.

There's nothing to it.

Gwang-nam. What's up?

Hey, is Madam Yu's full name Yu Mi-h*?

Yes, that's her name. What is it?

Well…

Wow.

Her name is all over the news.

She must have done something wrong.

A broker was arrested by the police

trying to get away with millions

by falsely advertising a green-belt area

to be available for development.

Yu Mi-h*, known to many as "Tiffany Yu,"

misled her clients into believing

a green-belt area in Gyeonggi-do

to be available for development,

and closed a 15 billion-won

shopping mall project deal

with a renowned international architect.

In the process,

she even illegally assumed the name

of Korea's biggest conglomerate,

Kangjin Group,

but was caught red-handed

when a national green project

was later announced--

The phone is turned off. Please leave…

Is she someone you know?

Yes. I see. All right.

I'll be in touch later.

All right.

So about this woman, Yu Mi-h*.

It seems she's well-known in the industry

as a competent headhunter.

She held the real power

in INA Group a long time ago.

Were you aware of this?

Yes.

So what happened?

She brought John Brown into the project

at the request of Kangjin Group.

They jumped into a development project

in an area that's designated

as a green belt.

Ms. Yu is claiming

it was all under Kang Sun-jin's orders.

And Kangjin claims

that Ms. Yu Mi-h* pushed forward,

blinded by her commission.

Still, the 15 billion won

must've come from Kangjin.

They're claiming

it was a breach of trust on her part

regarding the project funds.

There's a fierce family feud

going on at Kangjin.

There's a chance Kang Sun-jin

made a scapegoat out of Yu Mi-h*

after he made a critical mistake

by reaching too far.

I know them quite well myself,

and I wouldn't say it's just a suspicion.

If this was Kangjin's big picture,

she won't get out of this easily.

The 7.5 billion-won downpayment

they won't get back

will become Yu Mi-h*'s responsibility.

Is she someone who's close to you?

No.

She's the woman who raised me.

And I'm the biggest failure in her life.

Gwang-nam.

Hey, sis. Let me take that.

It's too heavy.

Have you finally matured?

Give it to me, here.

Hey.

How's your ex-wife doing?

Don't get started now.

Gwang-nam, you should go

on some blind dates.

I don't plan on

getting married again, ever.

I just want to live alone.

You've got to be kidding me.

I guess you haven't matured.

Forget about us.

Think about how much work

Mom has to do every year.

Isn't it time you find someone else

to help the family?

You're the only son in this family.

You want me to get married

because of the ancestral rites?

Seriously, what are you thinking?

Look at this punk.

He's spewing nonsense again.

You remember when you were up to no good

and told us you could never date a girl?

Still, you managed to marry one just fine.

Do you know how hard we've been trying

to set you up with someone?

You sure have it easy, Gwang-nam.

Do you think I was born a guy

because I wanted to?

Do you think it was my life's wish

to be born into this family?

-What are you…

-Are you serious?

Right.

I'd forgotten.

You'd all be worry-free without me.

I'll disappear from your life.

I'll move abroad for good.

And I'll never show up again.

You've finally lost it.

Hey,

-Do you think anyone can move abroad?

-Stop it.

I've already found a place to live

and booked my ticket too.

In fact, I came here to tell you that.

You'd never have the nerve to,

-but I'm different.

-Why you little--

-Stop it!

-Hey, are you done?

Do you have to be so heartless?

Do you have any idea

how frustrating this is?

I'm nothing but a problem to you guys.

Just pretend you never had

a son in this family.

Gwang-nam. Gwang-nam!

I told you to cut it out!

Gwang-nam.

What do you think, sir?

Yes, I think it's all looking good.

That's…

I mean…

Why don't we wrap up?

Yes, okay.

-Thank you, everyone.

-Good work!

He says he'll remove his makeup at home.

Thank you all!

Thanks.

Man, I'm tired.

You're so hot!

Hae-jin!

Do you know what the time is?

Aren't your parents waiting for you?

Sorry, but he needs to go.

Am I seeing things?

I'm sure that was the guy.

Yes, I'm sure she's fine.

I took care of everything.

What?

Nothing, just tired.

Yes, sir.

Oh, right away?

Yes, I'm taking him home

because he says he's tired.

Yes, I got it.

Hae-jin.

The chairman wants to see you

in his office right now.

Oh man, why is he doing this to me?

Should I just take you home?

This better be urgent.

Turn the car around.

Let's go to the agency.

RENOWNED INTERNATIONAL ARCHITEC

FALLS VICTIM TO IDENTITY FRAUD

YU ARRESTED FOR 15 BILLION-WON FRAUD,

PROSECUTION STATES FLIGHT RISK

YU OF KANGJIN GROUP ARRESTED FOR FRAUD

What's this?

What?

Hold on, this woman is…

I'm Yu Mi-h*,

Chief of Management Support at INA Group.

Why would someone influential in INA

try to scam Kangjin?

What's going on here?

JAMIE 2

Oh right, it's that guy's number.

They sent this to the media already!

If I ever get my hands on them, I…

But before that,

are you really living with her?

Who's this woman, anyway?

What do I do?

Hae-jin.

-Hae-jin!

-What?

Why don't we just say

that you're g*y?

What are you…

-This is for the best.

-What did you say?

At least people won't say

that I'm g*y anymore.

I'd rather be called

a supporter of free love than g*y.

Kang Hae-jin, you little…

Hey, wipe that crap off his eyes.

YU MI-h*

YU MI-h* UNDER INVESTIGATION,

DID SHE ACT ALONE?

YU ARRESTED FOR 15 BILLION WON FRAUD

THE "GREEN BELT" SHOPPING MALL SCANDAL

She's the woman who raised me.

And I'm the biggest failure in her life.

Come to think of it,

I know nothing about Choi Sang-eun.

Like this. There you go.

Just like this.

"You haven't forgotten

those magically happy,

peaceful moments, have you?"

Ms. Jamie!

Mom.

"Mom"?

I'm merely a consultant hired to raise you

as the perfect heiress.

And this is a huge project.

From now on, try not to be crude

by expressing too much emotion.

"When someone seems too nice to you,

they probably have a reason."

Isn't that what you taught me, Madam Yu?

How did you let that foreigner

get the better of you?

There are exceptions

when there's a debt to be paid.

He's someone who tried to use his power

to have me a long time ago.

I didn't take him up on his offer, but…

he didn't even understand

the concept of not getting what he wanted.

I thought this was

the chance to forgive him

for what he'd done to me.

So in other words,

you did something so reckless

for someone

who never needed your forgiveness.

So you have something

to learn from me too.

You don't use people

to get on the fast track.

Let me ask you one thing.

Did you contact me,

knowing this would happen?

Did you regret ditching me

for another source of income

now that it has come to this?

You must think you've been

taking care of me all this time.

But you just gave me money

I never asked for.

You've always been like that,

ever since you were little.

You could never stand having a dent…

on your pride.

All your generosity so far

was for your own pleasure,

was it not?

Madam Yu,

you really deserve punishment.

The investigation indicates

that the woman in question

has been visiting the premises

several times a week.

As you can see, only two households

reside in each building,

and according to the neighbors,

living downstairs from Kang

is a working practitioner of law.

Kang has been known to be

very sensitive about his privacy

to the point he was rumored

to be involved with many women.

That's why this recent scandal

may have massive repercussions.

I won't make it long.

Move back home right now!

What?

Me?

But why?

Hae-jin.

You ought to be polite.

I'm done putting up

with your child's play.

Child's play?

I made 30 billion won this year

from commercials alone.

Must you put yourself through such shame

for such petty money?

KANG HAE-JIN'S AGENCY

STRONGLY DENIES g*y RUMORS

He's been receiving daily updates

on all the headlines concerning you.

This is how much your father

cares about you.

So go on and tell him that you're sorry.

Move back in,

and get married.

You schedule a time

with Sunghan Group, dear.

You remember the second daughter

of Sunghan Group, don't you?

They're expanding their business

to bioindustry next year.

And what have you gotten yourself into?

I'm sorry, Father.

It's all been taken care of legally.

I don't care

if you put that broker in jail.

What about the loss

that our company has suffered?

Our company suffered no losses, Father.

She paid us the 7.5 billion won back.

Some young woman

bailed her out, apparently.

My eyes hurt.

Hey, off to work?

Where's your car?

I didn't see it anywhere.

-I sold it.

-You sold it? Why?

Right, you have to sell it before we go.

Hey, after we leave for Canada,

let's never come back here, all right?

We can't go to Canada anymore.

I've got nothing to my name.

Hey, don't lie to me.

That's not funny at all, okay?

But you never lie. What's going on?

Unpack all your stuff.

Knock, knock.

Have you thrown a welcome party

for your new colleague?

No, I haven't.

I knew it. Then do it today.

I've already told your team.

But this is unfair.

You're in a court. Sue me.

Then please excuse me,

I've got a date with my queen.

Where else will I look, if not everywhere?

Look up and down, and you shall see all

Today, it's opera.

I'll leave you to it.

You can't do this to me.

Today?

-Are we leaving now?

-Really?

Let's go, then.

Is this better than inviting them home,

and inconveniencing Ms. Choi?

Yes, let's just take them on all alone.

Yes, let's go.

Gwang-nam, I'm sorry.

But…

this was the worst punishment

I could give that woman.

Please understand.

Actually, you don't have to.

Even I don't understand myself.

I don't know what's wrong with me.

Seriously, you're scaring me now.

All right, I won't ask you anything.

So just be yourself.

But you know…

now I want to tell someone

that my life is tough.

Gwang-nam,

do you think I can lay down my burdens

and finally be at peace one day?

All right, Sang-eun. I lose.

So please stop saying that.

I'm not going to Canada either, darn it.

Are you on your way to that judge?

If I were you, I'd just have dinner

and chat away with him.

That would blow all my stress away.

You always make me laugh. Bye.

JUNG JI-h*

Hello, Mr. Jung. I'm on my way.

Hey, so this is awkward.

I have to attend a dinner

with my team tonight,

so I don't think

I can join you for dinner.

Really?

That's fine.

-Actually, Mr. Jung.

-Yes?

I know this may sound odd,

but may I still go to your place

and have dinner alone?

I don't want to go back home.

Would you be okay with that?

It's fine by me.

Yes, thank you.

Judge Jung, are you not coming?

I'm coming.

Why can't you do it?

Is there really a girl?

How is my getting married going to help

with the partnership with Hansung Group?

It's a collateral!

You're the only son left

who isn't married at Kangjin.

Oh, you know I didn't really mean that.

I just want to see you

settle down for once, that's all.

It's because you haven't settled down

that people spread these rumors.

I mean, what's all this

about you being g*y?

So in other words,

-you just want me to settle down, right?

-Of course!

We, the Kangjin family,

don't need arranged marriages.

If you want it that bad,

I can't continue to let you down, can I?

I'm sorry.

About what?

Why are you…

This place is really great.

The food is good.

We didn't even make a reservation.

-Cheers!

-Let's say cheers.

-Cheers!

-Cheers!

-Welcome aboard!

-Welcome to the team.

Judge Jung.

You said you'd invite us

to your home soon.

Doesn't Judge Jung seem like

one of those people

who goes home to a capsule?

I can't believe

he actually lives in a house!

Well, I'm really sorry,

but maybe not my house, after all.

Why not?

You must really hate us, Judge Jung.

No, it's not like that.

You see, my wife is

leaving the country soon.

Oh, is she going on a trip?

It's a lot longer than a trip.

Oh, it'll be a long-distance relationship.

Goodness,

you're still young and full of vigor.

Will you be all right?

I respect my wife's decision.

Everyone has

their own way of life, after all.

Goodness!

Gosh, he's such a strong soul.

Who's that woman?

Is he really seeing someone?

Isn't he at the peak

of his career right now?

May I still go to your place

and have dinner alone?

I don't want to go back home.

Have dinner alone?

But why?

Look at them holding hands!

Looks like they've been

dating for a long time.

Is she a celebrity too?

Wake up, Hae-jin!

Can I get another drink here?

I'm not g*y,

and I'm not living with anyone.

I'm getting married.

To this woman.

BREAKING NEWS: KANG HAE-JIN'S

SHOCKING WEDDING ANNOUNCEMEN

-Let's make a deal.

-Mr. Jung.

Well, what happened is…

Let's save that for Wednesday.

Today's not the day we see each other.

Just quit this damn job.

You deserve far better than this.

You may have been involved in a crime.

I really need you.

The men at this address

are both getting on my nerves.

You look distraught.

Why didn't you come to work on Friday?

What do you know about me?

Do you wish to extend our contract?
