[tense music playing]

Did you watch the show yesterday?

It was great. Did you see it?

[Byeon] The menu seems all right overall,

but please add more desserts.

Yes, ma'am.

And let's change the wine selection set

for dinner on Wednesday and Thursday.

-Something that's not too strong.

-Yes, ma'am.

[Byeon] Everything looks good.

[Wansoo] Everything you told me that day.

I don't trust a word of it.

I'm going to keep suspecting you.

[suspenseful music playing]

Bring me evidence

if you want me to believe you.

Red Swan

Why were you in there?

I was going to ask the butler something

but she wasn't in.

The vice-chairman is looking for you.

You should go to the second-floor study.

I will.

[suspenseful music playing]

[knocks on door]

Come in.

Episode 4

Q1.

Seo Doyoon, was it?

Yes, that's right.

I'm asking because I really don't know,

but is a bodyguard supposed to do

something like that?

Meddle in their client's affairs

and hold them by force.

I'm sorry, sir.

Both of your safety is my priority.

Were you hurt by any chance?

[Yongkook scoffs]

Weren't you worried

that you might be fired?

I know that I went a bit overboard,

but I thought you'd understand

that it was for both of your safety.

I am rich,

but I don't boss people around.

Bossing others is embarrassing.

I got it. You may leave.

Go easy on me next time, all right?

[uneasy music playing]

[sighs]

[door slides close]

[breathes deeply]

[suspenseful music playing]

[zipper zips]

I'll be heading out, sir.

Do it quickly.

[Doyoon] Judging by the volume,

it looks to be

around $700,000 to $800,000.

That's a billion in Korean won.

What could it be for?

[Doyoon] It's too much money to be paying

to have someone k*lled.

[sighs]

Siblings

Oh Hyunsoo, Oh Wansoo

First son Kim Yongkook

Lover Jang Taera

Late Kim Duo, Hwain's former chairman

Park Miran, Hwain's current chairwoman

[suspenseful music continues playing]

[birds chirping]

[exhales deeply]

[knocks on door]

[Byeon] Did you want to see me, ma'am?

Why did you put

Chanhee's belongings here?

I couldn't throw them out,

and I couldn't return them to you either.

I'll store them elsewhere.

I should have put more thought into it.

Yes, you really should have.

Have Chanhee's stuff stored elsewhere

and throw out

all the furniture in this room.

And keep this door locked.

What?

[Chairwoman Park scoffs]

She must think I'm a joke.

[in English] Okay.

[in Korean] Do as she wants.

We've got plenty of rooms here.

Yes, ma'am. I will do that.

-Call Mr. Han over.

-Yes, ma'am.

[footsteps receding]

[door opens]

Did you want to see me?

Just as you've suggested,

I should have Yongmin become

the new director of the foundation.

Wise decision, ma'am.

Do a good job convincing him

so that he doesn't complain

that he's getting a useless title.

What about Director Oh then?

We'll have her resign.

Don't force it since public opinion

might sway against us.

-Yes, ma'am. You don't need to worry.

-[sighs]

[breathes deeply]

What do you mean, a resignation speech?

Mr. Han sent it over, saying that it was

Chairwoman Park's order.

NOW FOUNDATION

Resignation speech

[scoffs]

What's going on all of a sudden?

Yongkook has a son out of wedlock.

-[Hyunsoo sighs]

-Did you know about this?

I'm sure you did too.

[exhales deeply]

Leak it to the tabloids.

Tell them that Hwain Group's

Vice-Chairman Kim is having an affair

and has a 10-year-old son with the woman.

Tell all the tabloids immediately.

[dramatic music playing]

Are you going to divorce him then?

I won't divorce him.

I won't let them take away

NOW Foundation either.

Then why tell the tabloids?

We should be stopping any possible rumors.

Do you really want me to do it?

[dramatic music continues playing]

[Ms. Yoon] Ma'am.

You should see this.

What's this?

[Chairwoman Park] That darn

Rumors of Hwain Group's Vice-Chairman Kim

having affair and with love child

[reporter 1] There he comes.

-[reporter 2] Let's go.

-[camera shutters clicking]

[reporters clamoring]

What's this? What's going on?

-Take us to the underground parking lot.

-Yes, sir.

[reporter 3] Here they come.

[reporter 4] Excuse me.

[reporter 5] Please wait.

[dramatic music continues playing]

[reporter 6] Were you aware of this?

-[reporter 7] Care to comment?

-[reporter 8] A word, please.

[reporters clamoring]

Is it true

that he has an illegitimate son?

[reporter 9] Are you aware that the photo

of the mistress was in circulation?

[reporter 10] A word, please.

Wansoo.

[sighs]

Director Oh Wansoo

Wansoo. Did you hear about the tabloids?

I'm busy. Get to the point.

I mean,

don't you keep up with the news?

Stop them.

I thought you'd be happy.

[scoffs]

I have a face that people can remember

from seeing just once.

I can't even go shopping anymore.

You should keep your neck straight

and carry on with your life.

You think so?

[Taera] Then should we just let them

publish those tabloid articles?

We can't do that.

Do something.

-Me?

-Yes.

Right. An interview.

You should do an interview.

-An interview?

-Yes.

[knocks on door]

You called me over

because of those tabloid articles, right?

You get out of here.

I never asked to see you.

What do you mean? The article is about me.

My photo is plastered

all over messengers in Korea.

[shouts, clicks tongue]

Get out!

You, sit down.

Yes, ma'am.

Wansoo No.

Director Oh has to do an interview, ma'am.

She's not only the daughter-in-law

of the Hwain family,

but she's a celebrity.

You know what I mean, don't you?

Why you I said get out. Get out of here!

-[door opens, closes]

-[Chairwoman Park] Goodness.

We're looking for the source,

but it may be difficult to find.

At times like these

silence is the best solution.

You should stay out

of the public limelight for now.

That's the best for all of us.

The stock prices of our five subsidiaries

have plummeted.

-Darn it.

-Why would that affect our stock prices?

Those darn apes.

[Mr. Han] You know how it is.

They want the group to be transparent

in its management and succession.

Moreover,

the business world holds

Director Oh's business acumen

in high regard.

[Chairwoman Park] Unbelievable.

Everyone must be worried

that she might end up divorcing Yongkook.

[Chairwoman Park scoffs]

[groans]

That will be all.

[shouts]

All of you, get out!

You head straight home.

[Wansoo] Ma'am.

Please reconsider my resignation

as the director of the foundation.

[tense music playing]

Hey.

It's not even been a minute

since I told you

to stay out of the public limelight.

Do you think I'm a joke?

[Chairwoman Park clicks tongue]

Quit your yapping

and keep your hands off the foundation

until things quiet down.

Just stay at home.

[sighs]

[Wansoo] Schedule a press conference

for tomorrow afternoon.

[Ms. Yoon] I'm sorry?

I'll report this to Chairwoman Park first.

Do that after you schedule it.

Or I can ask someone else to do that.

Yes, ma'am.

[tense music continues playing]

[scoffs]

The next day

[suspenseful music playing]

[indistinct chatter]

NOW Foundation's Director Oh Wansoo

Emergency press conference

[Yongmin's wife] What are you doing?

It's almost time.

Let's go after I watch this.

We won't make it before tee time.

Dad hates it when people are late to golf.

It won't be that long.

[Yongmin's wife] What is it?

A live broadcast

of Oh Wansoo's press conference.

-Because of those tabloid articles?

-Yeah.

[scoffs]

NOW Foundation's Director Oh Wansoo

Emergency Press Conference

Are rumors true that Hwain Group's

Vice-Chairman has an illegitimate child?

[minister] Exactly.

Marriage of the century to end in divorce?

Is Kim and Oh's marriage rocky?

[minister] She's been making waves abroad.

I've been following

all the articles they write about her.

[Chairwoman Park chuckles]

Is that so?

Whenever she ever travels abroad,

the entire country is rife

with articles about her.

[laughs]

Director Oh is the pride

of all women in Korea.

Thank you.

[minister] The same goes for you too,

Chairwoman Park.

Nonsense.

[chuckles]

[Chairwoman Park] You flatter me.

[Chairwoman Park chuckles]

Do you need to be somewhere?

Not at all.

What could be more important

than to have a meal with you, Minister?

[Chairwoman Park and minister chuckle]

I'm a fan of yours.

[soft chuckle]

No, the honor is all mine.

Please excuse me for a moment.

[minister] Of course.

Right.

The bathroom is over that way.

Hurry back.

Yes, ma'am.

[doors slide open]

[minister] You're such a philanthropist.

Me?

[chuckles]

Not at all.

[Wansoo] The chairwoman

might be coming down with a fever.

You should get her a blanket from the car.

Yes, ma'am.

I need to get to a press conference.

[minister]

You two are truly an inspiration.

You should head out the back door.

I'll be right with you.

[Chairwoman Park] Is that so?

[laughter]

[Chairwoman Park laughs]

I'm sorry,

but could you drive a little faster?

[driver] Sure thing.

[suspenseful music playing]

What?

-She's not in the parking lot either.

-Why you

I guess she had somewhere to be after all.

Yes, it seems that way.

She's feeling a little under the weather.

I'm terribly sorry.

[whispers]

That ungrateful

-[camera shutters clicking]

-[reporter] There she is!

[reporters murmuring]

[door closes]

NOW Foundation's Director Oh Wansoo

Emergency press conference

Hello, I'm Oh Wansoo.

This is my first time

having to address such an issue.

[keyboard keys clacking]

[Wansoo] It's already been over ten years

since I retired from being a pro golfer.

I wanted to thank you for taking

such an interest in me

after all those years.

[tense music playing]

Turn the TV on.

[TV chimes]

I've been living life

as a common housewife,

but since news spreads

so fast online these days

and reporters have been visiting me daily

at the foundation in which I work,

I had no choice

but to make a public appearance again.

A lot of people

seemed to be worried about my marriage.

There were talks of my husband

having an illegitimate child

with a woman he was having an affair with.

My answer to such allegations

[camera shutters clicking]

is a resounding no.

-[reporter 1] She says it's not true?

-[reporter 2] Really?

[reporter 3]

Are you denying the rumors then?

There were even photos of his mistress.

[reporter 4]

Are you here today to refute the rumors?

I will tell you the truth.

[Wansoo] The rumored illegitimate child

you've all been hearing about

is actually the son

of my late father-in-law.

-[dramatic music playing]

-[reporters murmuring]

-What?

-[Wansoo] You know him very well.

The late Honorary Chairman Kim Duo

is the son's father.

Why that little

[chuckles]

[exclaims in shock]

[scoffing]

[camera shutters clicking]

Has it been confirmed?

Did you do a paternity test?

[reporter] Then are the rumors false?

Is he really Honorary Chairman Kim's son?

I must beg you

that you refrain from taking

too much interest in our family affairs

as of today.

[Wansoo] That will be all.

[reporter 1]

Is everything you said here true?

[reporter 2]

Please give us a detailed explanation.

[reporter 3] Is what you said true?

[reporter 4] Please give us a word.

[music swells]

The late Honorary Chairman Kim Duo

is the son's father.

[gasps]

[shrieks]

She's totally nuts.

-Mr. Kim, turn around and drive home.

-[Mr. Kim] Yes, ma'am.

No, drop us off at the Grand Palace.

Quiet. Just drive us home.

What's with you, Mom?

We need to make a plan.

What will you do after you barge in there?

Why would we need a plan?

She's made me the concubine

of a man in his seventies.

The press conference live stream

will end shortly.

[laughing]

That was k*ller.

-Wansoo must have lost it.

-[laughing continues]

-[line rings]

-Dad?

We won't make it to golf today.

[Yongmin's father-in-law] I won't have it.

Come here at once.

-Wait.

-[line beeps]

My mom would be fuming right now.

Dad wants us there immediately.

Sure. We should be there.

You're just going to go?

[in English] Hello?

[in Korean] You've just got a new brother.

[exclaims]

I can't wait to see

the looks on Yongkook and Mom's faces.

[laughing]

-[door opens]

-Is this situation funny to you?

[laughing]

[laughing hysterically]

[reporter 1] Here she comes.

[reporter 2] A comment, please.

[reporter 3] Please give us a word.

A word, please.

[reporter 4] Wait.

-Could you confirm your statement again?

-[reporter 5] A word, please.

[reporter 6] Did you run a paternity test?

[reporter 7] Please comment

on today's press conference.

-[phone buzzing]

-[reporters clamoring]

Incoming call

My husband

The chairwoman has asked me

to escort you home.

Let's go home then.

[Lee Jin] Yes, ma'am.

[reporter 1] A moment, please.

[reporter 2] Please wait.

[suspenseful music playing]

[Chairwoman Park sighs]

[Chairwoman Park chuckles]

[Chairwoman Park] I remember,

this is the kind of person you were.

That's right.

[chuckles]

Do you want me to compliment you?

[shouts]

Answer me!

[sighs]

So this is how I get screwed over.

That was the best option I had.

Just what is your goal in life?

To create a better world.

[tense music playing]

[laughing]

You've got to be kidding me.

I've lived a life

where I was shunned by everyone.

It was cold and hungry.

Now, it's time for me

to help them in return.

That's why you people

never climb out of the rut you're in.

You bottom-feeders and your mentality.

Help with what? Why? Help who?

What's yours is yours

and what's mine is mine.

You must consider yourself a saint.

But you know what?

All the money you're spending is mine,

not yours.

I do more work for Hwain than your son.

I am the face of Hwain Group.

Hwain is mine!

You must feel like you've won today,

don't you?

You really are a piece of work.

Resign from the position

of NOW Foundation's director immediately

and never take any part

in any of Hwain's business from now on.

If that's what you want

I'll hold another press conference.

I'll tell the world

about the foundation and my role in it.

Your role?

What even is your role? Tell me.

I'd love to know what your role is.

The foundation is my everything.

I will make it a transparently run

international organization.

Stop sullying my life's work

with money problems, ma'am.

You

[Chairwoman Park] Hold on a second.

Are you telling me

that you'll blackmail me

using our slush fund?

You can ask the prosecution

and the police for help,

but it won't be easy for you

to stop the press.

You can't take away

the foundation from me.

I won't sit around and let you.

You really must have lost it.

[scoffs]

[Chairwoman Park] Listen carefully.

You have no one else to blame

but yourself for everything

that is about to happen to you.

I understand.

As long as I can protect the foundation

I'm willing to risk that.

Are you the same Seo Doyoon I know?

You need at least 10 security personnel

before you hold a press conference.

On top of that,

she left abruptly while she was meeting

with Chairwoman Park and the minister.

You should have told me at the least

and asked me to send more men

to guard her at the press conference.

[Mr. Park sighs]

I'm sorry, sir.

Sir.

I'll be at the headquarters

tomorrow morning

to monitor all of our CCTVs.

I'm the head of the RF team after all.

-Every one of them?

-Yes, sir.

I want to stop the reporters

from bothering the vice-chairman at work.

You don't need to worry

about the vice-chairman.

He has me.

-Yes, sir.

-What are you doing?

Are you trying to get ahead of me?

[soft chuckle]

I wouldn't dream of it.

I'm just trying to give it my best.

[sighs]

Goodbye, sir.

[door opens]

[door closes]

[both] Hello.

You're the new head of the RF team, right?

I am.

[Mr. Han] Jieun.

[Jieun] Yes, sir?

Please bring my dinner to the annex.

[Jieun] Yes, sir. I see that your dinner

was delayed quite a bit today.

[Mr. Han] My meeting

with the chairwoman dragged out.

[Jieun] I'll have it served right away.

Right.

You're the new head of the RF team

who guards Director Oh, right?

Yes. I'm sorry for the late introduction.

I'm Seo Doyoon.

[Mr. Han] You must have your hands full.

[uneasy music playing]

Keep up the good work.

[footsteps receding]

A few days later

It's huge, right?

Look at me.

[Taera] There you go.

[sighs]

Let's head inside.

Say hello to Chairwoman Park.

Hello, ma'am. I'm Jang Junhee.

Sit.

[door opens]

[door closes]

Sit down.

[Chairwoman Park] I asked her to join us.

You created this family tree,

so you should treat her with respect

as your other mother-in-law.

Yes, ma'am.

[sighs]

She has every right to live here

since she's my late husband's lover.

Show them to their rooms.

Yes, ma'am.

[Taera] Excuse me, ma'am.

-I mean, Miran?

-[gasps]

[comical music playing]

I mean, Chairwoman Park.

Gosh, my head

I'll leave you to it.

[footsteps receding]

Junhee. Does Grandma scare you?

[door closes]

Just stick right next to Mommy, okay?

[Taera clears throat]

Where is my room?

I hope it isn't right next to yours.

I've prepared a much bigger room for you.

Please follow me, mistress.

[Taera] Wait.

"Mistress"?

Why do you address me as mistress

instead of madam?

I'll show you the way.

-[Taera] You go ahead, Junhee.

-[door opens]

[door closes]

[line rings]

Mom, it's me.

Wansoo just addressed me as mistress

instead of madam.

Why would she call me that?

What do you think she means by that?

[Taera's mom] She's calling you

a concubine to your face!

-What? She is?

-[comical music playing]

[Taera's mom groans]

Mistress is another word for concubine.

The woman a man has an affair

and a love child with!

How could you not know that?

So she was mocking me?

I can't believe her!

Your clothes will be hung here, Junhee.

You should get changed

into something more comfortable.

[Taera] A concubine?

-How could you call me that?

-Be quiet.

[scoffs]

Mistress?

[Taera] Do you think I'm some tr*mp?

How dare you call me a mistress?

There are so many other things

you could have called me.

How could you call me a concubine

right to my face?

Do you think I'm below you?

Junhee.

[Wansoo]

Why don't you wait out on the sofa?

[Taera breathes heavily]

[door closes]

Listen closely.

This is the only part of the house

that you can call yours.

Don't even think of joining us

at the dinner table.

Make yourself invisible.

Don't let me spot you

anywhere inside this house.

Am I clear?

[tense music playing]

But I'm supposed to be

your father-in-law's mistress.

Then I'm practically your mother-in-law

Your second mother-in-law.

I don't think you get it.

Answer me.

Yes, ma'am.

[Taera] Darn it! This is unbelievable!

[breathes angrily]

I'm going out for a run.

Yes, ma'am.

[pants]

What is it? Do you find me pathetic?

My husband's mistress

moved into the house with their child.

You must be wondering what I'm thinking.

[soft scoff]

What is it that you want to protect?

Is it money?

[scoffs]

I doubt there's any money

in that house for me.

What is it then?

I took you to that press conference

because I thought it could help you.

I thought it was a way for you

to escape this family.

Did you think I'd announce my divorce

like the reporters expected?

You can only divorce someone

when you've married someone out of love.

My marriage was already ruined long ago.

[sighs]

Why are you protecting it

if it means nothing to you?

Just what is it that you want to protect?

[Chairman Kim]

Place your hand here to have it scanned.

[trilling]

[Chairman Kim] It will be used by the bank

to confirm your identity.

What do you mean, Father?

The details will be revealed to you

when the time comes.

I am heartbroken

about what happened to Chanhee.

Divorce must have

crossed your thoughts,

but save it for later.

Much, much later.

Now is not the time.

There is something I must ask you

to do for me.

You know how much I trust you, right?

Please remain a member

of the Hwain family until then.

I have to protect NOW Foundation.

Even to the point of risking your life?

If someone threatens my life

because of the life I lead

I'd much rather have that

than live wealthily while hiding

and begging for my life.

[sighs]

Do you want to die that badly?

I'm asking you if you want to die.

Chairman Kim Duo did not die here

at the Grand Palace.

[suspenseful music playing]

Didn't I tell you

that the same person who k*lled my friend

is now after your life?

It's not !sis!

Someone in that house wants you dead.

What did you say?

[thug 1 in Mandarin] Mr. L is coming?

A Korean policeman died

a few months ago in our area.

Mr. L did that.

He has another gig in Manila today.

-Where in Manila?

-Makati shopping district.

[c*ck g*n]

-[thug 1] He'll be working alone.

-[g*nsh*t]

[Doyoon in Korean] A friend of mine

who I considered a brother died.

I was there at the scene as he died.

But

the police

stopped investigating his death.

Although I volunteered

to investigate it myself,

they didn't let me.

He left me some videos.

What videos?

The proof that Chairman Kim Duo

did not die at the Grand Palace.

-[suspenseful music playing]

-What?

My friend was investigating

Chairman Kim's death,

so that would mean

the person who k*lled him

is the same person

who attacked you in Manila.

And you're saying

that it's someone at Hwain?

Yes. m*rder for hire.

[suspenseful music continues playing]

[birds chirping]

[exhales deeply]

[knocks on door]

[door opens]

The car is ready.

This is the Nomanee Sophi

that the Chairwoman had us prepare.

It was bought at an auction yesterday

for 150 million won.

You can deliver the wine, Ms. Yoon.

The chairwoman wanted you

to deliver it personally.

[sighs]

We should go.

[doorbell dings]

[puffs]

[Lee Jin]

Director Oh Wansoo is here to see you.

[door lock clicks]

[car door closes]

[sighs]

[pensive music playing]

[door opens]

You're here.

The chairwoman will be here any minute.

I was getting a massage.

I just need to get changed.

Daniel.

[in English] Oh, leave that.

Can you go fill up the bathtub for me?

[Daniel] Yes, ma'am.

[in Korean] You have a new butler.

He studied at the butler academy

in Switzerland.

Did Mother send us the wine?

She apparently bought it

for 150 million won at an auction.

[dramatic sting]

[both gasp]

That's 150 million

[sighs]

My hand was slippery

from the aromatherapy.

You should have been more careful.

[exhales sharply]

It's shattered.

You're right.

It broke.

I can see that.

[scoffs]

Have a seat over there.

What tea would you like?

Earl Grey.

Daniel.

[Yongmin's wife in English]

Can you get a cup of Earl Grey, please?

[Daniel] Yes, ma'am.

Are you okay?

I will clean it up right away.

-[glass pieces clinking]

-Do we have the same wine in our cellar?

[glass pieces clinking]

"Nomanee Sophi. Year 1986."

Yes, ma'am. We have it.

Oh, thank goodness.

[in Korean]

Wansoo, I'll go and get changed.

[glass pieces clinking]

[scoffs]

[Yongmin's wife] Wansoo's here already.

You need to get over here.

How should I know?

I'm so annoyed I don't even want

to ask her about the press conference.

My phone wouldn't stop ringing

because of that.

Okay. Hurry.

[laughter]

-[host] You've come a long way.

-[Chairwoman Park] Don't mention it.

-[host chuckles]

-I should visit more often.

[gentle classical music playing]

[speaking French]

[in Korean]

The wine is a gift from my mother-in-law.

[Chairwoman Park chuckles]

Please enjoy yourselves.

[soft laughter]

No, thank you. Pour them a glass first.

Does that make this wine

worth 200 billion won?

-[laughter]

-How witty of you.

You investing in our duty-free shops

is a win-win situation

for both our families.

Yes, and I'm grateful that you let us.

I've sent the papers

over to you for approval.

We're in the cosmetics industry,

so why should we have to invest

in their duty-shop business?

You don't have to

if you don't see the need for it.

That's right.

At the party you held in Manila,

how did your talk

with the Chinese Ambassador go?

[Chairwoman Park]

There was progress, right?

[tense music playing]

Didn't he promise

to throw you a banquet in Seoul

with Chairman Seo and his wife as guests?

Oh! That's great news.

[chuckles]

Director Oh is capable of doing

such great things.

For now

it hasn't been confirmed yet.

Then you can get it confirmed.

[Yongmin] As she should.

That's the only reason

Mr. Seo agreed to the investment.

That's right. Our cosmetics brand

has been having difficulties in China.

[Chairwoman Park]

You have nothing to worry about.

She's a global celebrity.

She's great at making

the right connections.

You can trust her to get it done.

You're right. My friends always ask me

questions about Ms. Oh.

[in English]

Daniel, I think it's time for main course.

Yes, ma'am.

[in Korean] Is that so?

[chuckles]

Before we forget,

how about we make a toast?

Of course.

[Chairwoman Park] Would you do the honors?

[Mr. Seo] I will, thank you.

Here's to Hwain

and Cosmo's eternal prosperity.

[Yongkook and Yongmin] Cheers.

[glasses clinking]

[Chairwoman Park] Hey!

Are you telling me not to meddle

in the foundation's affairs

by delaying that deal with China?

As long as you promise

NOW Foundation's independence,

I'll make sure that their brand

gets approved by China's FDA.

I'll have them allow us to open

our duty-free shop there as well.

Hmm

How could you try to embarrass me

in front of my in-laws?

[clicks tongue]

Do your job right!

[birds chirping]

I was wondering

Is it true that Butler Byeon graduated

from Seoul National University?

-Apparently, she went to law school.

-[servant exclaims]

No, she majored in English Literature.

But why did she become a butler

after graduating

from such a prestigious school?

Tell me about it.

The chairwoman's father

paid for her tuition

and her family's living expenses

since middle school so that she'd aid

the chairwoman for the rest of her life.

Then she'll be a servant all her life.

-Were you talking about me?

-[coughing]

[coughing continues]

I'm sorry, Ms. Byeon. I was out of line.

[coughs]

[servant] But Ms. Byeon.

Why are you spending

your entire life here?

Because I have enough time to read

and also because the people here

are in need of my service.

One more thing, Ms. Byeon.

How should we address that woman?

The woman with the child?

[both] Yes.

How does Director Oh address her?

"Mistress."

Then you can address her as that.

[stifled laugh]

So she's calling her a concubine?

You could say that.

[Taera] Hey, you. Butler.

[quirky music playing]

What are you staring at, butler?

-What is it, ma'am?

-Ah!

It must be because I'm not addressing you

as "Ms. Byeon," right?

Do you need something?

I'll be stepping outside to interview

my son's new private tutor.

I'll be the one to take care of that.

[Taera] Ah Wait.

A butler shouldn't pick out

his private tutor.

[Byeon] That's my job.

I can't just let anyone into this house.

Find something else to do for yourself.

[scoffs]

Unbelievable.

[sighs]

-[stifled laugh]

-[clears throat]

Hey, you over there.

Me, mistress?

What?

[Taera] What did she just call me?

[gasps]

Unbelievable.

[Taera gasping]

How insulting.

Director Oh.

This is a gift

that Ms. Stephanie sent from New York

for you to wear at the opening ceremony.

It's from her newest limited collection

this season.

-Send her a photo of me wearing it later.

-Yes, ma'am.

She donated so much money

to the foundation every year.

I'll have to repay the favor.

[kids chattering]

NOW Welfare Center

Opening ceremony

Understood.

[sighs]

[Chairwoman Park] Where's Director Oh?

She's already arrived

-and is looking at the dormitories.

-Damn it!

Tell her to come here right away.

Let's get it over with.

[reporter 1] Hello.

-Hello.

-[reporter 2] Hello.

[chuckles]

How does it feel

to be at the opening ceremony?

[Chairwoman Park] Well, I don't know.

-Ma'am.

-[Chairwoman Park] It feels very good

that our foundation is once again

making the world a better place.

[camera shutters clicking]

[sighs]

[reporters exclaim]

[tense music playing]

Why you

[awkward laughter]

The weather is great, isn't it?

[Wansoo]

Beyond the running of this welfare center,

NOW Foundation promises

to carry on helping children in need

both within the country and abroad

through various business endeavors.

I would like to introduce to you

Hwain's Chairwoman Park Miran

who continually graced us

with her benevolent donations.

[applause]

[camera shutters clicking]

Please step forward.

We'd like a picture of you together.

[reporter 1]

Please come to the center of the stage.

[reporter 2] Step forward, please.

-[reporter 3] Please move forward.

-[reporter 4] Step forward, please.

-[reporter 5] Please.

-[reporter 6] Please do that.

-[reporter 7] Please move forward.

-[reporter 8] Step forward, please.

-Please stand at the center together.

-[reporter 9] At the center.

-[reporter 10] Please stand together.

-[reporter 11] Please.

-[reporter 12] Closer.

-Please stand close together.

-[reporter 11] Please link arms.

-[reporter 12] Please link your arms.

[reporter 13] Please link your arms.

-[reporter 14] Please look this way.

-[reporter 15] Smile, please.

-Could you put your cheeks together?

-[comical music playing]

-[reporter 1] Now with a smile.

-[reporter 2] Please.

-[reporter 3] That's perfect.

-[reporter 4] We'll take the photo now.

-[reporter 5] Please look over this way.

-[camera shutters clicking]

-[reporter 6] Please smile.

-[reporter 7] Now smile.

[opponent 1 shouts]

[opponent 1 groans]

[intriguing music playing]

Darn it.

-You. Step forward.

-[opponent 2 shouts]

-[grunts]

-[opponent 2 groans]

[Chairwoman Park] Come on.

-[grunts]

-[opponent 3 groans]

[Chairwoman Park] You're all useless.

You.

Come here.

[pants]

[tense music playing]

You smell nice.

That's right.

I like men who smell nice.

[Chairwoman Park groans]

[groans]

Darn it.

[grunts]

[Chairwoman Park] Hold still.

Let me catch my breath.

[pants]

[light suspenseful music playing]

The thing about people

is that you can tell a lot

about them by the way they smell.

You can tell what someone ate that day

by the odor of their breath,

but you can tell

what they've eaten all their life

by their body odor.

That means

that I can figure you out from head to toe

by taking a whiff of your smell.

I'm just a former cop

who grew up in an ordinary household.

Are you saying you grew up poor?

We were ordinary.

But for some reason

you smell sweet.

We should do this again.

I liked how you didn't let me win

like the rest of them.

[cackles]

I was feeling miserable

since I was wearing

the same clothes as her today.

There's nothing like judo

to blow off some steam, right?

K1. Treat everyone

to a nice dinner tonight.

Yes, ma'am.

[exhales deeply]

[Chairwoman Park]

There's nothing like judo.

I feel much better today.

-Any irregularities?

-Nothing of note, ma'am.

Keep a close watch without them noticing.

-Yes, ma'am.

-Right.

Have Director Oh come and see me

in an hour's time.

[Lee Jin] Yes, ma'am.

[exclaims, scoffs]

[exclaims excitedly]

Same clothes, different vibes? Oh turns

heads at welfare center's opening ceremony

Same clothes, different vibes? Oh turns

heads at welfare center's opening ceremony

[sighs]

[Chairwoman Park] Damn it.

[knocks on door]

[sighs]

Come in.

Ms. Stephanie sent it to me as a gift.

I didn't know you purchased one yourself.

Your mother

You don't visit her, do you?

My brother is taking good care of her.

It must have been over 10 years

since you last saw her.

I see that Mr. Oh can hold a secret.

What do you mean?

Do you know that she's locked up

in a psychiatric hospital?

[tense sting]

-A locked ward at that.

-[gasps]

[breathing shakily]

[Chairwoman Park] Sit back down.

I'm not done talking.

Did you put her in there?

Me?

What right would I have to do that?

You're her daughter.

If people find out about this,

you'll be put in a difficult situation.

What are you trying to tell me?

[gasps]

You should be at her side for her death.

They say she could die any minute.

[suspenseful music playing]

[birds chirping]

[dramatic music playing]

Wonbit Psychiatric Hospital

This place is just

[somber music playing]

Wonbit Psychiatric Hospital

She may not recognize you.

She doesn't recognize me either.

[dramatic music playing]

[nurse] Welcome, Mr. Oh.

Gosh.

This is a prison, not a hospital.

This was the best I could do.

It was Chairwoman Park's order.

-[lock clicking]

-[chains rattling]

Welcome. Please come in.

[Wansoo] I want to see her alone.

I'll be in the car. Head inside.

She's in ward 3.

Ward 3

[ominous music playing]

[monitor beeping]

[Wansoo yells]

Mom!

[suspenseful music playing]
