- Pil Seung.
- Ko Pil Seung!

My gosh. Pil Seung!

- Pil Seung.
- Pil Seung...

Are you all right? What happened?

I'm all right, but Ms. Jang...

What?

My gosh, Soo Yeon.

Soo Yeon? Please wake up.

Ma Ri, what happened?

A wall came down
while we were on set.

She saved Pil Seung
and ended up this way.

My mom won't wake up
no matter how hard I shake her.

What? She saved Pil Seung?

No...

Not my Pil Seung.

Pil Seung!

Mom, what's wrong? Please wake up.

Wake up.

Mom!

Mom, can you see me?

It's me.

Soo Yeon, are you all right?
Are you awake?

How's Pil Seung?

Ms. Jang, I'm here,
and I'm all right.

Gosh, Director Ko.
Are you sure you're okay?

Yes.

Ms. Jang, goodness.

You must've been worried...

since he could've hurt himself.

Doctor, how's my mom and Pil Seung?

Mr. Ko, tests show
that you're perfectly fine.

However,
Ms. Jang suffered contusions...

on her shoulders and knees.

She'll have to be medicated...

and receive physical therapy.

- I see.
- Right.

Thank you.

It's a relief
the injuries aren't more serious.

But how come you suffered...

most of the injuries
and Pil Seung was left unscathed?

She embraced him as they fell...

so that he wouldn't be injured.

Soo Yeon.

I'm grateful that you protected him,

but you were hurt in the process.

It pains me, and I also feel guilty.

It's all right, Sun Young.

I'm fine, and I mean that.

Even the doctor said I was fine.

Honey, what happened?

How did the accident happen?

Are you all right?

I'm fine. The doctor cleared me.

Goodness.

Goodness me, I'm sweating.

If it weren't for your friend,

Pil Seung could've been
seriously injured.

Tell me about it.

I'm baffled
as to how she was able...

to throw her willowy self
just to save him.

Your friend must truly
be fond of our Pil Seung.

He offered him
a huge signing bonus...

and even saved his life.

Pil Seung, you should work hard...

and be loyal to her.

I should.

I had no idea
she was this fond of me.

You still need to rest,
so head upstairs.

Sure, I'll head up.

- Sure, hurry on up.
- Right.

Myung Dong, get me some water.

My heart's
still pounding like crazy.

- Got it.
- Goodness.

- Gosh.
- Goodness me.

Anyway, I'm glad
Soo Yeon wasn't seriously injured.

What if she was badly hurt...

or had sustained long-term injuries?

I couldn't lift my chin...

when Chairman Gong
showed up earlier.

Tell me about it.
The thought of it makes me shudder.

Anyway, about that Ms. Jang...

Even though
she hadn't fully come to,

she was calling out
for our Pil Seung.

It's as if she was calling
her own son.

If a stranger had heard that,

they would've thought
he was her son.

I'm sure it was because
she lost consciousness...

while trying to save him.

Ever since he was a young boy,

Soo Yeon doted on him.

I must be the luckiest person
to have a friend like her.

I have to agree with that statement.

You also lucked out
with your husband.

Sorry? I lucked out with my husband?

Why? It's not like she's wrong.

That's my mom for sure.

She only says what's right.

Right, whatever you say.

Gosh, what a scare.

Goodness me.

How could you have thrown
that slender body of yours...

to save a young man twice your size?

We almost lost you today.

Tell me about it.

Broken bones
can ruin us at this age.

I can't believe you threw yourself
just to protect him.

Were you that worried
for Sun Young's son?

I couldn't stay put
and see someone get injured.

An employee of mine
was in grave danger.

Let's get you to your room for now.

Hold on.

I left her medicine in the car.

Ma Ri, can you take your mom
to her room?

I'll bring her medicine.

- Sure, Dad.
- Goodness.

Let's go, Mom.

Great luck found us today.

When it comes to Sun Young,
she does everything she can.

She was willing to sacrifice herself
for Sun Young's son.

That's one tear-jerking friendship.

Having barbecue
reminds me of that time.

Back in the day,

you took us all to have Korean beef.

When we lived
at that old man's house.

Do Jun, do you remember that?

I do.

I don't know
where you got the money,

but you told us to eat
as much as we wanted.

The four of us polished off


Ji Young, you must
not remember that.

Yes, the story's lost on me.

Come on.

Don't talk about
what she doesn't remember...

and have your meal.

Here you go. Do Ra, open up.

Mom, we agreed not to call her that.

Yes, of course.
I just blurted it out again.

We have to call her Ji Young
from now on.

It will be a mess...

when people find out
that she's Do Ra.

Ji Young, open up.

- Sure.
- There.

It's good.

Thank you for taking
good care of me.

What is there to thank
when we're a family?

Do Jun, open your mouth wide.

I'll feed myself.

- Open wide. I want to feed you.
- Eat it.

Yes, eat it. Her arm might fall off.

There you go. Good boy.

Why are you crying?

The four of us...

are back together sharing a meal...

It feels like a dream.

I'm so happy.

Not again, Mom.

You're making me tear up too.

We should...

live together like this
and never part.

We can't afford
beef ribs but we can...

enjoy a happy meal of pork belly.

You won't remember, Ji Young,
but you're my daughter.

You're Do Sik's younger sister...

and Do Jun's older sister, okay?

Okay. I got it.

I'm so happy right now.

Because our Do Ra... No.

Our Ji Young's alive.

Why are we all crying during a meal?

Let's eat.

It's awkward now,

but we'll get used to it
if we spend time together.

Yes, Ms. Baek.

I'm happy and pleased...

to have a family.

I wish you'd call me "Mom"
when it's just us,

but you keep calling me "Ms. Baek."

Mom, we agreed to take it slow.

Her memory will come back soon.

Yes. Let's take it slow.
We'll take our time.

Ji Young, it's okay
if you call me "Ms. Baek" forever.

That's fine.

I'm sorry.

Don't apologize. It's fine, I said.

Let's eat now.

Eat up, kids.

Eat.

You can eat.

Grandma. What are you doing?

It's nighttime,
so I'm getting ready to sleep.

Why? Is something wrong?

Does something
need to be wrong to call?

Nothing's wrong.

Is everything okay?

Did you wander somewhere again...

singing the national anthem?

No, I didn't.

If I'd lost my mind again,

Auntie Duk Ja
would've called you already.

I'm just fine these days
probably because I'm so pleased...

to see my granddaughter on TV.

Ji Young.

The whole village
saw you in the drama...

and are saying you're successful.

I'm so proud of you,
I'm on cloud nine.

Are you?

I am.

So don't you worry about me.

Work hard
and do your job well, okay?

Okay, Grandma.

You know that...

I love you more than
anyone in the world, right?

I love you too, Ji Young,

more than anything in the world.

Thank you, Grandma.

Thank you.

I love you.

I love you, Grandma.

Ms. Jang offered me...

a crazy deal through the company.

Then did Ms. Jang do such a thing
on her own?

Even without asking you?

Not my Pil Seung.

Pil Seung!

It's weird.

So weird.

It's so very weird.

Why do you keep mumbling
instead of going to sleep?

What do you think is weird?

Myung Dong.
Don't you think it's weird?

What is?

A woman had a close call to death...

when a wall fell on her.

She didn't call
for her daughter Ma Ri...

or for her husband.

Why did she call
for Pil Seung in that situation...

and so desperately?

Are you still talking about that?

That's because...

she passed out
saving Pil Seung's life.

That's what I think is weird.

Why would she
call for Pil Seung at that timing?

Hey. You said so last time.

That it was a big deal...

that she offered Pil Seung
that big a down-payment.

Why did she hire him
for double the pay?

That woman was overly generous
whenever Pil Seung was involved.

She sent gifts and food...

on every special day.

And then...

this time
she all but sacrificed herself...

to save his life.

Is that something you'd do
for a friend's son?

So what? What is it you want to say?

Hey. I...

No, it's just weird.

You're such a nuisance.
Just let me sleep.

It's weird.

So weird.

It's so very weird.

Why would you treat us, Pil Seung?

To thank you and to apologize too.

You got hurt saving me.

Are you sure you should be at work?

I'm out because I'm fine.

I took my meds and had
a good night's sleep. I feel great.

Are you sure you're okay?

Yes, I am. All thanks to you.

Thank you so much.

You thanked me too many times.
That's enough.

How much longer will you say
thank you and it's okay?

It's taking too long.

Can't we stop and eat now?

Shall we?

- Let's eat.
- You start first.

Okay.

- The light blue one.
- The light blue one?

- Gosh.
- Yes, like that.

Here goes.

- What have you done?
- Sorry.

- Okay.
- Don't drop it.

I got it!

- Are you serious?
- Sorry.

I can get it.

You got it! Get one more.

- One more, as a pair.
- One more?

Nice.

Yes.

I wish Pil Seung and Ma Ri could
hang out like this from now on.

I wish they could be this happy.

- You want this one?
- Move a bit further.

- Like this?
- Yes.

It's so hot.

- Ji Young.
- Yes?

I'll make
a fantastic braised pork ribs...

and kimchi
because I know you love it.

When you were Do Ra,

after a crazy diet
before a commercial sh**t,

you wanted nothing but
my braised pork ribs and kimchi.

You polished off two bowls of rice.

Did I do that?

I still love
braised pork ribs and kimchi.

Gosh. You lost your memory
but kept your taste buds.

Let's see.

Hello, it's Baek Mi Ja
from Baek Entertainment.

A nightclub wants to
hire Ji Young to perform...

as the market lady from "Don't Lie."

Are you up for it?

I'll see how much they'll pay
for ten shows.

Listen, mister.

Ji Young will be the second lead
in a 30-million-dollar project.

She'll become a star once that airs.

So forget stuff like that.
Get me something classy.

Things like advertisements
for cosmetics or beverages.

Call me when you have
something like that.

Who does he think we are?

What's wrong?
Who was that on the phone?

What? Oh, you don't need to know.

Is that all we're good for?

Let's sort this out.

Goodness.

Are things going as planned
for the restaurant opening?

Of course.

Everything is going so well.

Are you sure?

Yes.

I'm going to surprise you this time.

We're opening a restaurant
thanks to Pil Seung.

What a devoted son we've got.

You're right.

We're so lucky
to have a son like him.

All right. I'll work hard
running this restaurant...

and pay back Pil Seung's money.

And when he gets married someday,

I'll buy him a decent apartment.

- What? Are you serious?
- I am.

My goodness. That sounds great.

Hey, Jin Dan.

What's wrong?
Why are you drunk again?

You promised
you'd pull yourself together.

We're meeting
with Tae Hee's family next week.

You can't be like this.

Mom.

Can we push back
the meeting a little?

Why would we push it back?

What's the big rush?

It's not like
we're getting married soon.

Jin Dan, don't tell me...

this is about Do Ra again.

Haven't you come back
to your senses yet?

I don't know.

I just don't know
why I'm being like this.

What do I do with you?

My goodness.

So, Hyun Chul,
is this our restaurant?

- Yes, Mom. This is all ours.
- My gosh.

Congratulations, Hyun Chul.

Thanks.

Congratulations, Dad.

Thank you.

Thanks to Pil Seung,
we paid off the loan...

and got this great restaurant
of our own.

I promise I'll work hard.

We will work really hard
and pay back your money.

You don't have to.
I gave you the money.

Don't say that.

The down-payment is like a debt
that should be paid off.

We can't just spend up
our son's hard-earned money.

In matters of money,

you should get everything straight
even with your parents.

I agree. Your mom has a point.

All right then.
You can pay me back later.

All right.

The place is really spacious.

- It's so nice.
- I know.

Welcome.

A table for two? This way, please.

My gosh. Soo Yeon and Ma Ri.

- Hello.
- How did you get here?

Why do you even ask?

Of course, we should come.
I mean, this is your restaurant.

My husband wanted to come with us,

but he has a seminar to attend
on Jeju Island.

He asked me to tell you sorry.

He will definitely come next time.

I'm just grateful Chairman Gong
sent us this beautiful wreath.

It says it's from
the chairman of APP Group,

so people in the neighborhood...

keep asking how we know
the chairman of APP Group.

My husband is all high-spirited now.

He's been smiling the whole day.

Then should we ask him
to send a wreath every day?

Gosh, there's no need.

You're here.

Hey, Pil Seung.

- Hi, Pil Seung.
- Hi, Ma Ri.

You should eat. This way, please.

The meat is really good.

- Be careful.
- Okay.

Pil Seung, you should sit.
I'll cook the meat.

No. We cook the meat
for customers here.

I'll grill the meat for you.

My gosh.

You're sweating.

Thank you.

Why would she wipe the sweat
off the face of someone else's son?

I mean, he's a grown man
in his thirties.

Why would she wipe his face?

- Enjoy it, Ma Ri.
- I know.

That's way over the line.

Take your time and eat a lot.

We know that
she's Sun Young's friend,

but those who don't know that
would get the wrong idea.

Get the wrong idea?
What do you mean?

What?

Nothing.

- Try this, Mother.
- Hey.

- Yes?
- About your friend, Soo Yeon.

Pil Seung was sweating,

so she wiped his face like this.

Why would she do that
to her friend's son?

Hey, tell her not to do that again.

It looks strange.

Come on, Mother. What's so strange?

She just wiped the sweat. That's it.

- Just eat your food.
- Excuse me.

Coming.

Why would she
stare at him like that?

That's just weird.

- Bye.
- Bye.

- Come again with Chairman Gong.
- I will.

- Ma Ri, did you like the food?
- Yes.

- Come again. Okay?
- Sure.

- Bye.
- Thank you again for coming.

- Bye.
- Bye. Have a nice day.

What?

Myung Dong,
I think this belongs to Ma Ri.

I'll go give this to Ma Ri.

Okay.

Mom.

Can I stay here
and hang out a little more?

What do you mean
you'll hang out here?

Did you not see how busy they were?

I'm not saying
I'll stay here for fun.

I want to help Pil Seung out.

Maybe next time.

Today is the grand opening,

so they are too busy
with a lot of customers.

Okay. Get in the car.

I hate that we have to part
from Pil Seung like this every time.

I want him to live with us
at our place.

I mean, Pil Seung is my brother.

He's your son.

How long do we have to live
separated from him?

Ma Ri.

We promised
we wouldn't bring that up.

- Just get in the car.
- My gosh.

Come on.

There you go. Get in.

My goodness.

What is this all about?

Is what they said true?

Sit here.

Mom, you should lie down.

Why are you feeling dizzy
all of a sudden?

Did you work too hard today?

No. Maybe you have
anemia or something.

You should go to a doctor
and get some blood tests.

I don't have anemia.

I'm just in a state of shock.

Shock? What do you mean?

Myung Dong, I think...

I know
who Pil Seung's birth mother is.

Pil Seung's birth mother?

What are you talking about
all of a sudden?

Myung Dong.

This is just between us.

Make sure to keep the secret
to your grave.

Don't tell Pil Seung or Sun Young.

Come on.

Hyun Chul has just opened
his own restaurant today.

Why are you talking nonsense?

Myung Dong.

Ma Ri's mother.
I mean, Sun Young's friend.

You know CEO Jang.

She is Pil Seung's birth mother.

Pil Seung is her son.

What are you talking about, Mom?

You don't sound like
you're in your right mind.

You should go and get tested
for dementia.

Come on! I don't have dementia!

When I went out
to give Ma Ri her earing back,

I heard that with my own ears.

Do you know what Ma Ri
and CEO Jang said?

"How long do we have to live
separated from him?"

"Pil Seung is your son
and my brother."

This is what she said.

Mom. You're being really strange.

You should get tested for dementia.

Come on. What?

You're just being ridiculous!

You shouldn't say such a thing
to someone else.

If you spread something like that
with no proof,

you'll be sued for defamation.

And you know how Ma Ri had...

a crush on Pil Seung
and treated him like her brother.

Is that it?

My gosh. I'm heading back out.

We're busy as is with Hyun Chul
opening his new restaurant,

but you're speaking nonsense.

- What's the matter with you?
- What?

Was I really mistaken?

I'm sure I wasn't.

My hearing's just fine.

Or maybe it isn't.

- Nice.
- Cheers, everyone.

- Good job, guys.
- Good job.

Do Sik,

join us
for team dinners like this...

rather than going off on your own.

Got it.

I see Kim Na Bi
is now promoting that soju brand.

You're right.
Didn't it used to be Cho Sa Ra?

Her career tanked
after that sponsor scandal.

It reminds me of how
Park Do Ra took her life.

Excuse me, but Park Do Ra
didn't have a sponsor.

As if. It was all over the news.

She needed money
to cover her mom's gambling debt.

We all saw that photo of her
at the hotel.

I said you were wrong.

Who are you to talk about
what's wrong?

As if.

You can still
read the articles online.

Those stories were made up.

Cut it out, will you?

Why is this punk
getting on my nerves?

That's enough.
Let's go back to our drinks.

They're both drunk, that's all.

Who are you to say
that the rumors aren't true?

Should I show you a photo
of her and a guy at that hotel?

The photo proves
that she k*lled herself...

because she was too ashamed
of trading sexual favors for money.

- Hey.
- I said you were wrong.

Who do you think you are?

Are you a relative of hers?

Are you her brother?

That's right. I'm her brother.

Hey, that's enough!

Goodness.

Do Sik!

What happened?
How were you charged with as*ault?

You've never done
anything like this before.

Excuse me. Are you
Park Do Sik's mother?

Yes, I'm his mother.

And I'm his sister.

The victim is currently
in the hospital,

and I advise that you settle.

It'll be a mess for you
if he presses charges.

It seems as though
he got into an argument...

with a coworker
while out having drinks.

The last thing you want
is a rap sheet at that age.

He hasn't had a brush
with the law until now.

Why you...

I can't believe you.

My gosh.

What was that?
Did you say 50,000 dollars?

Gosh, we don't have
that kind of money.

We barely put food on the table.

Can you please cut us some slack?

Have him serve time
if you can't pay up.

It's not like
Park Do Ra is his sister.

How can he beat me up like this
when all I said was that she died...

because of a sponsor scandal?

I won't settle...

until I get 50,000 dollars. Got it?

I'll take legal action!

Goodness.

He should pay for doing this to me.

My gosh. Please have this.

And this.

Can you please cut him some slack?

- Please.
- I'm so sorry.

I had no idea...

he fought with that man
because of me.

My gosh.

How can I pay 50,000 dollars
when I don't even have 5,000?

Wait. Let me call Do Jun.

No, I can't.

He probably gets by
on part-time jobs...

and wouldn't have the money.

If I call him,
all he'll do is worry.

Ma'am, have some water
and take a breather.

Gosh.

Goodness, Ji Young.
Do you have money saved up?

If you do, let me spend it.

We need to do what we can
to prevent jail time.

I have 5,000 dollars
which is the deposit I received...

when I moved out
of Director Ko's house.

Is that all you have? Gosh.

Wait. You'll receive a signing bonus
for this new series.

Ask Jae Dong...

- when that'll be wired. Hurry.
- What?

Right.

Gosh.

Mr. Lee, it's me.

When will I receive
the signing bonus for my new series?

Is that so? Got it.

No, it's nothing.

I just asked.

I'll hang up, then.

I'm afraid that money
is inaccessible.

I'll receive 30 percent of it
after the first day of filming,

but that must be spent on expenses.

What now, then?

Hold on.

Doesn't your grandma
have some money saved up?

My grandma?

What money could my grandma have?

What will happen to Do Sik, then?

Oh, no.

Goodness.

Do Ra... I mean, Ji Young.

What is it?
Have you figured out a solution?

If you agree to it,

there's a job
that'll get you 30,000 dollars.

What? What's the gig?

Then I should do it right away.

What's there to think about?

[Hoho Nightclub]

I wasn't going to have you take on
these kinds of gigs again,

but this was the only way
to earn quick cash.

It's all right.

They're offering me 30,000 dollars
to act like a street vendor...

and sing ten songs.
Why would I turn it down?

I don't see a way of making
easier money than this.

Besides, I can't let Do Sik
go to prison.

He got into that fight
while standing up for me.

Do Ra... I mean, Ji Young.

Thank you so much.

Thank you, my daughter.

Thank you.

Ma'am, don't worry too much.

Ladies and gentlemen,
you have waited long enough.

It was not easy
to book this actress...

who was the star in "Don't Lie."

I'm sure you all know her.

"Pick them."

"Pick and choose whatever you want."

Please welcome
"Pick Them" Lady, Kim Ji Young.

- Nice.
- Look at that.

I remember her. Pick and choose.

I want him to live with us
at our place.

I mean, Pil Seung is my brother.
He's your son.

How long do we have to live
separated from him?

Ma Ri, please.

That's right. I heard it for sure.

Could Pil Seung
really be Ms. Jang's son?

If that's true, then...
Gosh, this is insane.

What now?

Why am I shivering all of a sudden?

Where on earth
did one of these earrings go?

Yes, Grandma.

Wait. You have one of my earrings?

Why isn't anyone home?

They all went to work
at the store or the restaurant.

Ma Ri,

you and I are true friends,
aren't we?

Of course, Grandma.

You must know that true friends...

don't lie to each other.

I guess.

Why are you saying that?

On the day my son
opened his restaurant,

you dropped this earring
on your seat.

I followed you out
to give it to you...

and heard everything
you and your mom said.

About what?

You said...

that Pil Seung was your brother
and your mom's son...

and you didn't know
why you had to live apart.

You didn't like
parting ways with him...

and asked
when you could live with him.

That's what you said.

What?

Ma Ri.

Is Pil Seung your mom's son?

Is Pil Seung
your biological brother?

Grandma, no. This is a secret.

No one can know about this.

My goodness.

Is it true?
Are you saying it's true?

Yes.

But you won't tell anyone, right?

My dad can't know about this.

He can't.

My mom will be kicked out
once he knows.

What?

Your mom will be kicked out?

Wait. Are you saying...

that Pil Seung isn't your dad's son?

He's not.
Pil Seung isn't my dad's son.

Only my mom is his parent.

No one can know about this.

How on earth did you find out?

Goodness me.

What on earth?

Do Sik?

Do Sik!

You didn't have to be here.

Look at you.
Your cheeks have sunken in.

Do Sik, are you all right?

You seem to have hurt yourself
in the scuffle as well.

Come on. Let's first see a doctor.

No, as if a doctor is necessary.

I have no right to spend money
on a doctor.

I'm fine.

Mom, I'm sorry.

Ji Young, I'm so sorry.

Have some tofu,
stay away from this place,

and don't fight people
just because you're angry.

Here's your tofu.

Mom, how did you settle?

Don't tell me
you paid the guy money.

As if we even have
any money to give him.

Hurry up and have your tofu.

She's right.
We didn't pay him any money,

so don't worry and eat up.

Take huge bites.

She's right. Huge bites!

Come in.

Ms. Jang,
I'm afraid there's an issue.

As in?

Take a look at this.

[Hoho Nightclub Presents
"Pick Them" Lady from "Don't Lie"]

What's this?

[Hoho Nightclub Presents
"Pick Them" Lady from "Don't Lie"]

Ms. Kim.

Is it true you'll be performing
at this nightclub?

Yes, it's true.

Really?

Ms. Jang, I'm sorry.

Director Ko, Writer Kim,
I'm so sorry.

Ms. Kim!

Why would you work a gig like this
without telling us...

when you're supposed
to be on our show?

Didn't you read your contract?

Didn't you read the notifications
specified on it?

I'm sorry. I badly needed the money.

Also, I had no idea
this would be a huge deal.

You didn't know
it would cause an issue?

I don't care
how clueless you are, this...

I'm sorry.

Ji Young's a rookie,
and I should've been on top of this.

It's all my fault.

I'm so sorry.

I'm sorry.

There's no need
to even talk about this.

We'll cut Ms. Kim from the project.

Having an actress who sings
and dances at a nightclub...

star on our show...

will only make our series
look just as cheap.

Ms. Kim, this is just wrong.

I say we cut Ms. Kim.

Director Ko,

I could work around it
if it was a one-time thing.

But she has to keep performing
at this nightclub.

If this is true,
I don't think we'll be able...

to work with Ms. Kim.

I can't believe this.

Ms. Kim.

How could you be this reckless?

Tell me how this happened.

My brother...

was out having drinks
with his coworkers,

and one of them said...

that Park Do Ra died
because of her sponsor scandal.

He must've said nasty things
about her.

My brother
got into a fight with him,

and his colleague was injured.

He threatened...

to press charges...

if we didn't settle, so...

He got into that fight...

because he was standing up for me,

and I couldn't let him sit in jail.

At the time, all I could think about
was paying his settlement.

The nightclub offered
to pay 30,000 dollars in advance...

if I agreed to do ten shows,

so I performed there.

You should've called me first
if you were in that mess.

How could I possibly
ask you for money?

Ms. Baek put you up to this,
didn't she?

Gosh, no. I chose to do this.

Tell me the truth.

How could you have known
about the offer?

You haven't even been
to nightclubs like that.

Ms. Baek put you up to it.

Director Ko.

Why do you keep blaming my mom?

Why are you making her out
to be the bad guy?

I agreed to this gig.

Also, I couldn't
let my brother go to jail.

That's all I thought about,

and I did it
not knowing it was wrong.

I honestly didn't know
that it was a huge mistake.

Director Ko, I'm sorry.

I'll apologize over and over again.

I should've thought about our show,

and this was wrong of me.

I'll...

be replaced, right?

I'm so sorry.

Ms. Baek, this...

What is this?

How could you do this?

Ji Young might be replaced
because of what you did.

They might annul her contract.

Also, I'm co-CEO of this agency.

How could you let her work there
without informing me?

I didn't think it'd be a big deal...

since she's an unknown actress
and the show hasn't started filming.

What could we do
when we needed the money?

We couldn't let her brother
and my son rot in jail.

You should've thought
of another way.

What were you going to do...

when videos of her performing...

got posted on social media
after she made a name for herself...

in "The House of Roses?"

You can't take anything back
once it's on social media.

You know how this industry is.

So?

Will they cut her from the show?

Yes, and there's nothing
we can do to argue about it.

What now, then?

[Hoho Nightclub]

I'll pay back the money
you paid Ms. Kim Ji Young.

The contract she has with you
will be terminated.

But there's also a cancellation fee.

Do you still want it
to be terminated?

Yes, how much is it?

Director Ko, can we meet up?

We needed the money.

There was a fire
that had to be put out,

and that's all we thought about.

I had no idea
it would backfire this way.

My Do Ra...

I mean, Ji Young...

can't be cut from this show.

Please cut her some slack.
I'm begging you.

Even if you badly needed the money,

how could you sell Do Ra...

I mean,
Ji Young to a place like that?

Why would you say I sold her?

My son was about to go to prison...

and I had no income.

I didn't force her to do it.

Do Ra offered to perform there.
How was I to stop her?

Have you already forgotten...

about the pain
you inflicted on Do Ra?

Have you already forgotten the world
of torment you put Do Ra in?

She came back from the dead.

If you were a real mom,

you should care for her
more than anyone.

How could you...

let Do Ra sing in a place like that?

And you call yourself her mother?

What?

This is why...

I didn't tell you she was alive.
Because this would happen.

Why do you think we went that far?

Don't you feel an ounce of pity?

How dare you talk like that?

Ms. Baek.

I'll warn you again.

If this happens once more,

I won't let it slide then.

Remember that.

Director Ko. I didn't...

My gosh.

How dare that punk
talk to me like that?

My daughter is mine.
Why does he care...

what I do to her?

What gives him the right
to lecture me like that?

Goodness.

He went way too far.

Where should I hide this?

No. I should bring this up.

How can I keep quiet
about something this important?

But I promised Ma Ri.

What do I do?

This is driving me crazy.

What do I do?

- What's wrong, Mom?
- What?

Why were you so startled?

I wasn't. I wasn't startled.

What are you hiding?

Are you in trouble again?

I'm not. It's nothing, okay?
Don't ask about it.

Give me that. Goodness.

Hey, it's a gene test report.

Mom. Why would you have this?

Gosh. Did you request the test?

Yes.

I did it.

I had Pil Seung's toothbrush
compared to Ma Ri's hair.

I had their DNA tested...

and they really are siblings.

They're what?

Pil Seung and Ma Ri are siblings?

Ma Ri's mom...

is Pil Seung's birth mom.

- Wait.
- Okay.

No way.

[Maternal gene match proves
biological sibling relationship.]

- It says...
- Mom, I'm home.

Sun Young had something else
to take care of.

Gosh, I'm exhausted.

Why are you two
sitting so awkwardly?

What's that piece of paper?

- What is it?
- What?

Let me see it.

- What is it?
- Hyun Chul.

- Pil Seung's birth mom...
- You darn brat.

I promised Ma Ri I'd keep quiet.

That's not important.
He needs to know.

He is Pil Seung's dad.

What about Pil Seung?
Did something happen to him?

What is it?

Hyun Chul. Read this.

Okay.

- What about this?
- Pil Seung and Ma Ri.

They're siblings.

What?

Mom. What is she talking about?

Goodness.

- Cheers.
- Cheers.

It's so nice and cold.

It is.

It's so cooling.

Soo Yeon.

My husband wanted to have
a business of his own so badly.

You made his wish come true.
Thank you so much.

Don't thank me.

It was Pil Seung's money.

You paid him so much,
so you could say...

we still owe you.

You keep saying
I paid Pil Seung a lot.

How many times must I say...

I scouted him
because he was good at his job?

If you want to thank someone,
thank our Pil Seung.

Soo Yeon.

You must've been an angel
in your previous life.

Or did my mom send you to me
to look after me?

How was I blessed
with a friend like you?

I'm sick of thanking you
all the time.

I want to thank you...

for being there for me as a friend.

I'd have had such a hard time
if I didn't have you around.

You were there
whenever I hit a rough patch.

Okay, I got it.

To celebrate, I'll treat you today.

Let's have a lot of cold beer...

and then sing at a karaoke later.

Sounds good.

- Cheers.
- Cheers.

Who on earth are you looking at?

I'm standing before you right now

Don't make me wait for too long

Don't wander too far from me

One day you will tell me

That you love me

My gosh.

How...

How could this be?

Now that I think about it,

that woman started coming by
ever since...

Pil Seung came to live with us.

Calling herself Sun Young's friend.

She was so good to Sun Young
and to Pil Seung too.

It was all planned.

She left her kid with us...

and watched how he grew up.

In TV dramas, women who do that
are the worst-ever villains.

She's not just a villain.
She's evil.

She's the worst kind of person ever.

Sun Young was so proud
to call Ma Ri's mom a friend.

Sun Young relied on her so much,

so how could she do this to her?

They say
nothing's scarier than people.

Hyun Chul. Will you tell Sun Young?

Tell her what?

She'd pass out
if she were to hear this.

No. She might even die.

Pil Seung is my son.

He's not that woman's son.
He's my son.

So Mom,
pretend you don't know anything.

Okay, I will.

Ko Myung Dong.
Don't you say a word either.

Okay. Don't worry.

Honey. Mother. I'm home.

Sun Young's home.

What do we do?

We keep quiet, of course.

What are you all doing here?

We were discussing if we needed to
get anything for the restaurant.

Where were you at?

You were able to
open your own business...

all thanks to Soo Yeon.

So I treated her to say thanks.

We had a beer together
for the first time in a long time,

and we went to a karaoke
and sang to our forever friendship.

I'm going to bed now.

I'm so tired.

They sang
to their forever friendship.

What should we do about her?

Oh, dear.

What should we do about this?

She trusts the evil woman
with her heart.

Goodness...

- Happy birthday to you
- Happy birthday to you

- Happy birthday to you
- Happy birthday to you

- Happy birthday, dear son
- Happy birthday

Happy birthday to you

I wish you a happy birthday, son.

Blow out the candles
and make a wish.

This is embarrassing.

I told you not to do this
because I'm too old for it.

- I'm not in kindergarten.
- Come on.

Stop complaining
and do as you're told.

Goodness.

Dad, Mom, Grandma,
Auntie, thank you.

- Happy birthday.
- Happy birthday.

Gosh. Honey, are you crying?

What's up with you?
Why are you acting up?

I...

What do you mean?
I'm not crying at all.

Oh, dear.

Dad.

I love you.

I should get to work.

Hey, you should
at least have some cake.

- I'm busy.
- My gosh.

Gosh, my son is so busy.

It seems like yesterday...

that he was crawling
around this room.

He grew up so fast.

Hyun Chul, you're being funny.

I hear men also go through
male menopause.

I've never seen a guy
who burst into tears...

while singing a birthday song
for his son.

Hey. A newborn baby that was
this small has grown like that.

Isn't that just touching?

Well...

I guess Mom is
going through menopause too.

Why are you being like this?

My gosh.

Excuse me.

What? Who's that?

Sun Young, I think
someone's at the door.

Soo Yeon.

You didn't have to do this.

You send gifts
for Pil Seung's birthday every year.

Thank you.

What?

It's Pil Seung's birthday,

but why did you buy gifts
for me and my husband?

My gosh.

I'm so grateful
that I don't know what to say.

Okay. Thank you.

It's Pil Seung's birthday,

but she got you and Hyun Chul
gifts too?

Yes.

She says it's for the trouble...

we've had while raising him.

Anyway, she used every excuse
she could to send us gifts.

I see.

This is a purse for me.

And this is a belt for you,
Hyun Chul.

You should try this on.

I don't need it.

What?

Why would that woman do this
for Pil Seung's birthday...

when he wasn't even her son?

Tell her to care
about her own child.

Hyun Chul, what's wrong with you?

Soo Yeon has always sent us gifts...

for Pil Seung's birthday,
which we should be grateful for.

Why are you being like this
all of a sudden?

And how could you say such a thing
about Soo Yeon?

It's not like we're a poor family
who needs charity...

or we don't have clothes to wear
and food to eat.

We are just fine
even without her stupid gifts.

Tell her to stop
sending stuff like this.

And you shouldn't get
anything from her.

Hyun Chul, seriously,
why are you being like this?

My gosh.

Hyun Chul,
what is the matter with you?

If you keep being like this,
Sun Young will find out.

You told us to pretend
we didn't know anything.

Why are you showing it?

My goodness.

How could I just sit back
and do nothing?

Maybe it was fine
when we didn't know anything.

But now we know what she is up to.

We are aware of
that despicable woman's intention.

Are we supposed to accept
her lousy gifts with no hesitation?

Hey, what else is there we can do?

Do you think we're happy
to get those gifts?

Just like you said,
if Sun Young finds out everything,

she will die.

And Pil Seung will find it out too.

Do you want that to happen?

No. I'm well aware
that I shouldn't be like this.

I know, but this is just wrong.

Who is she to thank us
for the trouble we've had...

while raising Pil Seung?

She abandoned her own son.
How dare she?

How dare she say such a thing?

Gosh, Mom.
I can't take this anymore.

I'll go see her
and give her a warning right away.

So she won't act
out of line ever again.

I'll tell her to stay away
from Sun Young and Pil Seung.

My goodness. Hey.

Hyun Chul.

What are you talking about now?

Well... Sun Young.

A woman who abandoned her son?

Who are you talking about?

Well... Sun Young.

Mother, are you...

talking about
Pil Seung's birth mother?

Who is she then?

No, wait. Sun Young.

That's what you just said.

You said you'd go see her...

and give her a warning.

Tell me who she is.

Go ahead and tell me. Who is she?

Who is the woman you want to see?

It's Jang Soo Yeon.

Your friend, Jang Soo Yeon.

What...

What did you say?

That's right.

You should know that.

Pil Seung's birth mother is
your friend, Jang Soo Yeon.

So tell her not to do
things like this ever again.

No.

That can't be right.

Sun Young.

- Sun Young.
- Honey.

What do we do, Hyun Chul?

- Sun Young, wake up.
- Honey.

Let me see.

Aren't you sweet?

Let's go.

What? My goodness.

Sun Young?

Hey, you're Jang Soo Yeon, right?

Yes. That's right.
Do you remember me?

Of course.

Back in high school, there was
no one who didn't know you.

By the way, what are you doing here?

I was in the neighborhood...

to meet someone,
and I just found you.

My gosh.

How adorable.

Is it a boy or a girl?

He's my son.

He's so adorable.

Well... Sun Young.

It's so nice to see a friend
from high school after a long time.

I'd like us to keep in touch.

My sweet baby.

Are you curious?

Sun Young, can I try
holding Dae Chung in my arms?

Of course. Go ahead.

He's so adorable.

She's Ms. Soo Yeon.

How adorable you are.

Soo Yeon, what's wrong?

Nothing.

Dae Chung is so lovely.

I wish I had a son like him.

Gosh, I'm sorry.

- Oh, dear.
- I'm sorry, Dae Chung.

Soo Yeon.

You'll have a child of your own.

My gosh.

- My gosh. I lost!
- Dae Chung.

What? Auntie Soo Yeon is here.

- That's Auntie Soo Yeon.
- Dae Chung.

Dae Chung!

Have you been doing well?

You've grown a lot, Dae Chung.

Give me a kiss, Dae Chung.

Oh, dear.

Honey.

Take this medicine.

Honey. Where are you going?

- Honey.
- My gosh.

- Honey.
- What's wrong?

- Where are you going?
- Sun Young.

- Wait, honey.
- Sun Young.

Wait.

Sun Young, what are you doing here
at this hour?

Hey.

Sun Young.

You evil witch!

[Beauty and Mr. Romantic]

I'm sure Ms. Baek
was aware of your contract.

Would she have suggested it
if she had truly cared for you?

How could she cause trouble
of this magnitude?

One should know better.

This bothers me too much.

What did you urgently want to say?

I was cut from the show, wasn't I?

What on earth did you do wrong?

Just tell me.

I'll tell you sometime later.

I'll tell you later,

so stay off my case!

We'll keep this from Pil Seung.

I don't want to drive
a knife through his heart.
