(Episode 35) You only have two options.
Take this money
and stay out of Ms. Jeong's life for good,
or be criminally charged and go to jail.
What'll it be?
Okay.
We'll take the money and forget his marriage to Jina
ever happened.
D-Dad.
It's all over, kiddo.
You can't go to jail.
What's your name?
It's Kang Jongtae.
This says Ms. Jeong Jina has repaid the debt
and his marriage to Ms. Jeong is annulled.
Sign it.
And leave this cafe.
He can't do that.
He can't?
Will he keep lingering
around Ms. Jeong although the debt has been repaid?
Daesik may seem a bit slow to others,
but he's my precious son.
This is the first thing he's ever loved doing.
Do you know how committed he is to this cafe?
Ms. Jeong will find it uncomfortable.
She's nervous just by the fact
that Mr. Kang Daesik is nearby.
I'll make sure
Daesik gets over her.
He will treat her
like any other hometown friend he's known,
so please let him run this cafe.
You seem to be
a man of power, so we beg you.
Daesik needs to run a proper business like this
so he can get married.
That's right.
The cafe is being run on a lease,
so you can't kick him out.
Very well.
But if he comes to see or harass Ms. Jeong again,
I won't let it slide again.
Okay. I'll talk to him.
Mr. Kang Daesik.
Yes?
Don't tell a soul about what happened today.
If people at Hyunkang finds out
I repaid Ms. Jeong's debt,
you'll have to leave this cafe.
O-Okay.
Very well.
It's actually a relief
now that it's over.
Some may call it misdirected love,
but as parents,
we wanted to give our son
what he wanted no matter what.
I can't marry Jina?
Yes. The flight arrives at 3:05?
Okay. I see.
The shareholders' meeting is at 4:00,
so it'll be tight what with
immigration and such.
Yes?
What brings the two of you here?
We're popping in on our way to Minhan
to boost your morale.
Boost my morale?
Oh. Because I might be ousted as interim CEO?
Of course not.
We know what you're made of.
You scoured the country
for 30 years to find Grandpa his grandson.
I believe in you, Counsel Heo.
My shoulders feel heavier as you seem
to be pressuring me not to get ousted.
Oh, right.
Here.
What's this?
My emergency snack stash.
This'll make you feel calm
and happy.
Does it work?
It works wonders.
When Grandpa passed away,
her emergency snacks helped me greatly.
We're off to the plant.
You can do this, Counsel Heo.
Go.
Thank you.
It does seem to work.
Your husband runs the cafe out front, right?
He's the type of guy you like?
Did you get the herbal tonic?
I didn't pick this zipper.
Did you switch it?
They didn't have the zipper you picked,
so I replaced it with this.
Why are you tampering with my design?
But they didn't have your zipper.
Why are you lashing out at me?
What's wrong?
You see...
This isn't the zipper I picked.
So I was asking Ms. Seo, who ordered it.
You didn't ask me.
You lashed out.
Oh? This really isn't the one we picked.
The correct zipper arrives tomorrows.
We'll use this for now on the sample,
and I'll switch it when the zipper arrives.
You should have let
Ms. Jeong know beforehand.
Would you like it if someone
switched your trimming without your knowledge?
I'm sorry.
I was going to tell her, but she got so testy.
It must be tough for Ms. Jeong to keep house and work.
You need to be understanding as a fellow woman.
Your husband seemed very nice,
seeing how he brought you herbal tonic.
That man yesterday is not Ms. Jeong's husband.
What?
He got a marriage license behind her back
and has been harassing her.
How do you know that?
Ms. Jeong told me when she first joined us.
I didn't think much of it.
I had no idea he'd even come harass her at work.
Oh, my god.
Is that true, Ms. Jeong?
Report him to the police right away.
What a scumbag.
You asked me about the annulment process, right?
I got it filed through my lawyer friend Kim.
It'll take some time, but once the suit goes through,
the record of marriage will be expunged,
so don't worry.
Just keep working hard like you have been.
Thank you.
Your life seems to be full of drama.
From a stalker to an illegitimate marriage license...
Are you the type that leads men on?
It's time for the shareholders' meeting.
We should go.
Yes, we should.
Is that what your phone call yesterday was about?
Yes.
But you didn't tell me.
I did tell you
someone had asked to know.
Are you sure?
About what?
Are you sure you don't have feelings for her?
I'll be made president of Hyunkang shortly.
What are you saying at this critical juncture?
I just find it odd.
I know all that you had to endure
for 30 years to ensure
that Hyunkang becomes mine.
Someone once said
misdirected love may be scorned by others,
but a parent would do anything
for her child, no matter what.
What are you talking about?
Are you saying what I do for you
is misdirected love?
That's not what I mean.
I'm saying I know what you've done for me,
so you need not worry.
Okay. Very well.
I must've worried needlessly.
Let's go.
Hello, Counsel Heo.
Hello.
Everything will finally straighten itself out.
It's been exhausting, right?
When you step down as CEO,
you should go a long trip
and get refreshed.
Yes, I plan to if I step down.
Let's get together after the shareholders' meeting.
We should have dinner.
Sure, Director Choi.
You have an acceptance speech ready, right?
Yes, Mom.
Why isn't Counsel Heo coming in?
Maybe he just can't bear it.
We now begin the 17th emergency shareholders' meeting.
We are here today on the reappointment of a CEO
due to shareholding changes.
I'm sorry I'm late.
You got here faster than I expected.
Here, sir.
Thank you, Mr. Kim.
You're welcome.
Director Choi Siu
now holds 30.3% of Hyunkang's shares,
which is more than the 27.8%
held by Mr. Heo Cheongsan,
the interim CEO,
so Director Choi Siu is now the new CEO.
This is why we asked
you to convene today.
Wait.
May I have the podium?
What's he doing all of a sudden?
He must not want to step down without a word.
Hello.
I'm the current interim president and CEO
Heo Cheongsan.
Today, President Steve Jeong of Victory Investments,
one of Hyunkang's major shareholders,
transferred to me his Hyunkang shares,
which amount to 7% of Hyunkang's total shares.
This is the securities transfer certificate.
Thus, I now hold 34.8%
of Hyunkang's total shares.
This means there'll be no changes
to the presidency.
I'm very sorry you had
to come all this way for nothing.
Thank you.
It's been so long.
That was quite a stunt.
I guess I can't go on a long trip and refresh just yet.
You'll get to do to that in a year's time.
You can wait a year, can't you?
Isn't life a series of waiting?
You managed to find Steve Jeong,
who has never shown himself.
You didn't know?
Steve Jeong is Vice President An's brother-in-law.
We've been in touch the whole time.
His health has been failing,
so he plans to retire soon
and travel.
Excuse me.
Oh, no.
Oh, my goodness.
You poor thing. Let me see.
It must hurt really bad.
This is going to bruise.
Ow.
Who told you to stand in front of the door?
I was going to open the door for you.
Pardon? Oh...
I have hands.
Who asked you to open my door?
Good grief.
I shouldn't waste my breath.
You'd make a good sauna buddy.
A good sauna buddy?
What does that mean?
Do you mean I feel like a guy friend to you?
I'm kidding. Just kidding.
Mr. Lee.
Take it.
Yes, Mr. Lee.
Pardon? Really?
Yes.
I was so curious that I asked Ms. Yu just now.
Counsel Heo, I mean, President Heo
took the podium like in the movies
and then
turned the table on the Chois.
How?
How did he turn the table on them?
He got shares from an American
investment firm or something.
Anyway, right before the change
in presidency was to be made official,
he made a dramatic entrance with the certificate...
You're that happy?
It's not that...
Mr. Lee?
Mr. Lee.
I have to go. We'll talk later at... Bye.
Ms. Yu, I told you to exercise discretion, didn't I?
Do you want to lose your job?
I'm sorry.
This isn't the neighborhood barbershop.
How dare you flit in and out?
I'm sorry, my angel.
My angel?
I got chewed out because of you.
I'm sorry.
I don't know if you understand how a soldier feels
loving someone in the enemy's camp.
Nice.
Whoa.
What's going on?
I'm ecstatic. I'm so very ecstatic.
You're ecstatic? About what?
There are no changes to the presidency.
Counsel Heo will continue on as president.
Really?
That's really great.
It must be thanks to the chocolate you gave him.
Oh. My emergency snack?
Counsel Heo owes me a lavish dinner.
I'll buy you that dinner.
- Okay. / - Let's go.
What should the prenatal nickname be?
Lotto?
Jackpot?
No, no.
Lucky.
Yes?
Dad.
Oh, my. Welcome,
my beautiful designer Ms. Han Seungju.
- and Mr. An Namjin. / - Hello.
What's going on?
You're grinning ear to ear.
Am I?
Sit.
Did you know?
About what?
Wait.
How do you know?
You know too, Seungju?
Good grief.
You see,
I couldn't believe it at first.
Mr. Lee just called.
Counsel Heo will remain as president.
Oh, that.
Counsel Heo said
all that was left was his share of the work,
so he must have had a plan already.
So now we just focus
on the contest, right?
Yes.
Let's see the order form.
It's tight as the first round is coming up.
Will it be possible?
We'll have to work nights if we must
for my dear Seungju.
Let's start production
after the samples are made and approved.
Okay, okay.
What's going on with you, Dad?
Why are you so happy?
I am?
Nothing's going on.
Is it that nice living with Ms. Ko?
You're happy
even though her brother sold off your shares?
You're that elated?
What's gotten into you?
Namjin is here.
Don't be like this, Dad.
You come off as spineless.
Smiling makes him look way younger, so leave him alone.
Anyway, we'll come tomorrow for the samples.
Be punctual.
Okay, squirt.
We'll get going then.
Okay.
- Bye. / - See you.
Bye.
I am indeed happy.
Yeonsil,
are you craving anything?
I'll get it on my way home from work.
That slick old fox got the better of us.
You had no idea?
I would have done something if there had been
any changes to the shareholding even just yesterday.
That is why that vile man
showed up with the certificate on the day of.
We used all our cash to buy up shares, but I still
have to waste a year competing against an idiot.
It can't be helped.
We must show him
how much better you are through the contest.
Fine.
It is what it is, so I'll show him
Hyunkang isn't for a loser like him to covet.
At this rate,
won't he just give up
even before the second round?
Perhaps.
Mr. Lee, did it not go well?
President Heo must have been ousted.
What do we do?
No.
President Heo
will be staying on as CEO.
Then why do you look so down?
You scared us.
Do you have any idea
how painful love can be?
My angel.
The samples will be ready tomorrow.
Really?
Yes. You can all call it a day.
We'll punch out from here.
Okay. Later.
Bye.
We're not going back to the office?
I have to stop by somewhere.
You should go home and rest up.
A woman should take care of her skin.
Yours is rough and dry.
What? Excuse me?
What's wrong with my skin?
Darn it. Ms. Kim wants to marry a man
just like me,
and you want me to be your sauna buddy.
Is my femininity that lacking?
No.
You're a very attractive
and lovable woman.
Really?
Yes.
You're just trying to make me feel better, right?
I really mean it.
You made my heart skip a beat many times.
When?
When did I make your heart skip a beat?
Thank you, Namjin.
From moment to moment.
The little things you do are so sweet and lovable
that my heart would flutter.
It was so hard for me to remain committed
to my feelings for Jina.
I haven't known you long,
but I keep kidding around
as I feel comfortable like I've known you forever,
so please don't be offended.
What does Ms. Jeong
mean to you?
Jina
is my memory and habit.
Jina was there
in all the moments I remember.
Jina may have wiped me out of her mind,
but I can't do that.
Because to wipe her out
means to wipe out my entire past.
Would you drop me off right up there?
I'll drive you home.
No.
I forgot about an engagement.
Really?
See you tomorrow then, boss.
Okay. See you tomorrow, Ms. Han.
Bye.
That stupid fool.
Why is the sunset so darn pretty?
I'm fine.
You don't have to tiptoe around me.
Won't it be better to become the president
by winning the contest fair and square
rather than as the largest shareholder?
You're right.
Chairman An's supporters still remain,
so I think they're trying to buy time.
Nothing beats crushing people like that on merit.
If you're done, you can go home now.
Choi Siu speaking.
Siu,
this is Namjin's mother.
I'm surprised to hear from you, Ms. Yang.
Your mother said
she was inviting your fiancee to dinner,
so I'd like to know what I should make.
You come home late and leave early,
so I have no time to ask you at home.
Why are you asking me that?
Who else would I ask?
I'm sure you know what your fiancee likes.
I don't know.
Please make whatever you think is best.
Whatever I think is best?
Then should I just prepare Korean table d'hote?
Bulgogi and glass noodles and such.
Yes, sure.
Hello? Hello?
What? He hung up?
Geez.
Talk about rude.
How did his mother raise him that he hangs up
before his elder does?
Anything other than bulgogi and glass noodles?
He says he doesn't know.
He told me to make whatever I think is best.
There's nothing
I hate more than when someone says,
Whatever you think is best.
How irresponsible is that?
My thoughts exactly.
I could get told off for what I thought was best.
Even couples that date for over 10 years
experience rough patches in their marriages,
yet he doesn't even know his fiancee's favorite foods.
Let's just make all the basics of Korean table d'hote.
If we make a little bit of everything,
they'll pick and choose what they like.
That's right.
You have a good head on your shoulders.
You must have done well in school.
Academics is a different ballpark altogether.
I'm full.
The baby's full too.
Let me know if you crave anything else.
Daddy will get it for you right away.
Say,
were you really going to divorce me?
The baby can hear, so why bring that up again?
I was so upset
that I was going to kill myself.
Frankly, I decided against divorcing you
because of the baby,
but I won't see Seon-gyu again.
You cut ties with him too if you want to stay with me.
I know he did
some awful things to you,
but he's the baby's only uncle.
I know you can't forgive him now,
but couldn't you forgive him
down the road?
I won't change my mind even with time.
As soon as I dealt with his mess
and got him released, he did me in again.
Just thinking about it wakes me up from my sleep.
Your blood pressure will rise again.
I'll stop talking about Seon-gyu,
so please don't stay angry, Manseok.
Manseok, what should the baby's prenatal nickname be?
Yes. The prenatal nickname.
I thought about it all day at the office,
but I couldn't think of anything.
How about Savior?
Savior?
Our baby saved Mommy from divorce.
Oh, that works.
Savior.
Right?
Savior.
We're not open today.
Oh? N-Namjin.
What are you doing?
It's over.
It's all over.
What's all over, dude?
Jina's debt has been repaid.
So I
can't marry Jina.
Really?
Jina repaid the debt?
Dude.
But she doesn't have that kind of money.
It wasn't Jina.
It was someone super rich
and super successful.
He repaid all of Jina's debt.
Who?
You won't tell me? Who was it?
It was...
You're marrying someone else,
so you'll pay me off?
Is that why you brought this up?
Repay me if you're uncomfortable.
Could you get me $100,000?
Jina seems to be in trouble.
Is Seungju interested in someone?
Yes.
I think she broke off the engagement because of him.
