"Episode 14" "Now I can hear well." "Ingi, where are you?" "I can see you well." "What?" " I'll come over there..." " Just stay where you are." "Just listen to me from there." "All right." "Tell me." "You are special to me." "And that doesn't mean I have special feelings for you or anything." "No..." "Whatever I might be feeling about you, it doesn't matter." "On the contrary, my feelings might just be ordinary." "I'm sure you won't understand what I'm saying." "I can." "Don't say anything and just listen." "From now on, we're not going to meet again." "And that's why I couldn't wait for your call." "Because I won't be able to see you again," "I wanted you to call me even more." "There was something I had to tell you." "So tell me." "What is it that you needed to tell me so bad?" "I'll come there." "I'll come over there." "Minjae..." "Don't move and wait for me." "I need to tell you something, too." "The right answer when it comes to purity... is number three." "Ajeosshi, hurry up and go." "You should have just told him the truth." "Stop trying to play around with his feelings." "If you were going to react like that, why even bother asking him to meet?" "You really..." "And that is what being pure is all about." "If you look at the dictionary... 1." "Clean, devoid of impurities." "2." "Free of any selfish or evil intents." "3." "Experiencing no rapport with the opposite sex." "Did you memorize all that?" "The real taboo here is the third definition." "The fact that to be pure, man and woman need to be virgins." "My mother's generation thought that, once women lose their purity, they all become promiscuous and dirty." "But that's just wrong." "For instance, let's suppose I fell in love with someone." "And then broke up with her." "The end result would be that the purity we were sharing suddenly vanished." "But then, what if I fall in love again?" "Would that make my feelings impure?" "That is wrong." "Because purity is that force washing away all impurities, making people fall in love." "It feels all deserted in here." "Where did Youngmin's wife go?" "I sent her to Youngmin." "Wouldn't they need to spend some time by themselves to have another kid?" "T..." "Tell me about it, Father." "Pour me a drink." "Yes, Father." "Will drinking liquor be all right?" "Your late mother suddenly came back to mind." "Father, I'm sorry." "Your glass." "Yes." "Th..." "Th..." "That'll suffice, Father." "Let's drink." "Youngdae." "Yes, Father." "Your mother struggled her entire life." "I wonder if it's because my time is coming, but I keep thinking about her." "What are you saying, Father?" "You must live another ten..." "no, another twenty years!" "The only way I'll make up for everything I did to your mother... is seeing you succeed before I go." "Why are you giving up already?" "Why can't you show confidence like Youngmin and Youngjun?" "It gets on my nerves every time I see you." "But if I overstep my boundaries, it'll only create conflicts among us." "It's because you've never acted like the eldest." "Can't you even keep your brothers in check?" "You useless twat..." "Ehh, you useless twat..." "And I didn't even realize..." "Mother." "I apologize." "And who is doing the chores?" "Just go back." "There must be a reason why he keeps trying to get us together down here." "What's that supposed to mean?" "I guess he wants another grandchild." "Then again, a few things were keeping me busy outside, so all the better." "What would keep you busy?" "I was thinking I could create some kind of private club for you." "Private club?" "!" "Why isn't he calling?" "I mean Minjae." "He's just not answering." "Let me handle this on my own, don't get involved." "Becoming owner is no easy feat." "I said that win or lose, I will handle this fight." "I'm just saying it's a fight you must win." "You can't do that all by yourself." "I said don't get involved." "You already got into trouble." "I told you not to get Youngjun involved, didn't I?" "He was already on bad terms with your father, so why give him a lifeline when you could have just gone for the kill?" "I made a promise with both my brothers." "What promise?" "That whomever dad chose, the others would accept it." "And you trust them?" "You really..." "Didn't you say your father will choose only one and the rest will have to leave?" "Think they'll honor that promise?" "Will they just leave without saying a word?" "The last man standing will be the only one who can win this battle." "You want to win it too, don't you?" "But you don't have confidence, so you wanted to go back to school." "Stop it." "You can't go back there." "Or else you'll become a failure." "That's why you must win." "If you don't have the confidence, just let me handle it." "I will fight on your behalf." "We have a customer." "Hurry up and come!" "Yes... yes." "Sit here." "But what now?" "All we serve in the morning is seafood porridge and rice soup?" "!" "Does Yoon Jeongsuk live here?" "Yoon Jeongsuk?" "Who is Yoon Jeongsuk again?" "Hyejin's mother, who else?" "Why are you looking for her?" "Ahh..." "So, what, you must be that fella from the company who spoke at the hearing yesterday?" "I came to meet Miss Yoon." "Wait a moment, uh?" "Jeongsuk." "Jeongsuk!" "Ahh..." "Hurry up, you'll be late for her flight." "Director Jang." "Let's at least hear the reason." "Why is he forcing Ingi to leave for Hawaii?" " Hyeonpil, go get the car ready." " Yes." "Can't you tell President Hwang that she took that flight?" "And how much longer would she have to hide?" "As if he wouldn't find out." "Director Jang..." "Just close an eye this once." "No need to beg." "Just keep quiet for a month, and I'll try to convince President Hwang." "Why is he trying to kill her momentum right as she was starting to gain popularity?" "Let's go, Eonni." " Kim Minjae " "The right answer is number 4, we need to meet." " Call me when the flight takes off." " Yes, Director." "Yes, they just left for the airport, Hyungnim." "I'll call again once the flight departs." " Go!" " What kind of knight are you?" "Good!" "Well done, guys." "We're good now, aren't we?" "You are." "You're doing great." "Just a moment." " Mom " "It's me, Mom." "Why aren't you calling me, or even answering the phone?" "You promised me that you would call often." "Minjae, why aren't you answering me?" "I just don't want to lie to you." "To do what?" "I don't want to lie to you anymore." "Where are you now?" "At Uncle Youngshik's hakwon." "Fine..." "I won't ask you where you were yesterday and who you met." "No need to call me." "Mom..." "That's not what I meant." "Check firsthand whether Baek Ingi takes that flight." "I'll be waiting for your call." "Is this your hometown?" "Yes..." "I was born and grew up here." "You must feel attached to this place." "Yes..." "What you said yesterday at the hearing really left a mark." "Don't joke about that, I was just saying whatever I had in mind." "It hurts me as well." "Building a shipyard in such a beautiful place." "There are a lot of people who approve of it." "When a huge corporation says it will build here, how could we possibly stop them?" "Don't you let that bother you." "There might be a way to stop all this." "No..." "It'll just get you into trouble." "They're just building that shipyard to create new jobs, just let them." "But you said that you didn't want to leave your beloved village." "That is true." "Will you show me your village, then?" "Yes, there is plenty of nice scenery." "Follow me, we'll need to walk a little." "Make sure nobody touches Ingi's things while I'm away." "All right." "See you soon." " BaekIngiBaekIngiBaekIngiBaekIngi " "All right." "Make sure she won't come back to Seoul again." "Then I'll grant you every favor you ask me." "I'll never forgive you this." "And that goes for anyone who tries to ruin my son." "Where are you going at this hour?" "I need to go back up to Seoul, I'll be back by this evening." "What for?" "I need to do something with Minjae." "Just leave him alone." "The wife of Shinmun-Ro's chairman seems to like him." "He's still too young to pester him about marriage." "Who ever said he'd get married right away?" "All I ask for is an answer from them." "I'll see you tonight." "Honey." "If you keep trying to stop him from meeting that young lady, it'll only get worse." "Who, Baek Ingi?" "She's hardly of any concern." "Why are you staring at me that way?" "Nevermind." "See you." "You're staring at me worried I might have done something to her." "You're more than capable of that." "Go." "Good." "Okay, next." " All articles about Baek Ingi (CF shoots, Movie-related) " "Are you bored?" "No, it's fun." " To Gahwe-Dong, please." " Yes, Ma'am." "If you really miss her so much, just go after her." "Is Hawaii the issue?" "If I were you, I'd even follow her to the moon." "Uncle, I need to go out a moment." "Are you really going to follow her to Hawaii?" "No..." "Whenever I feel cramped, there is someone I always meet." "So, what, is there someone else other than Baek Ingi?" "Yes." "Someone who makes me feel at ease whenever I meet her." "We're still not open." "Long time no see, Yang Insuk." "I heard about your accident." "Yes..." " It was a hit and run." " What a relief." "I completely lost contact with you, so I thought you were dead or something." "Guess it wasn't a serious accident." "Just a few bruises." "Nice little place you've got." "How did you find out this place?" "That's what I'd like to ask you." "You didn't move near our house just to meet Minjae?" "!" "Who couldn't find out a tycoon's address?" "Is that so?" "You'll forgive me, but can't we meet another time?" "Smells nice?" "!" "I guess it's freshly roasted." "Give me a cup of coffee." "Wait a moment." "Let's meet later." "How can you treat people that way?" "I just asked for a coffee." "It's not what I meant, it's just that Minjae might come." "All the better, then." "We can just sit down and let it all out, tell him who's his real mother." " That's not what I want." " Isn't that the reason you moved here?" " To make Minjae a regular, and..." " I didn't tell him anything." "You looked nice together, walking him home, holding hands while he was drunk." "I really didn't tell Minjae a thing." "I bet..." "How could you tell him that?" "That you sold your own son." "You'd rather try to win his favors as the kind ajumma next door, and at the crucial moment, "I'm your real mother."" " Stop it." " You know that this is a breach of contract, right?" "Have you already forgotten the promise we made when you gave birth to him?" "That you'd never show up before him until he became owner." "I'm sorry." "Might be a lengthy discussion, so let's have a cup of coffee." "Wait, Nayoung." "Can't we go talk somewhere else?" "Sometimes Minjae comes here for coffee at this hour." " I have nothing to fear?" "!" " I'm asking you." " We can't meet him together." " You said he knows nothing about you, so why worry?" "So?" "So what are you going to do about it?" "All I need is to keep that promise." "I will take that secret to the grave." "But I can't close the cafe." "All right." "I promise." "I'll just watch him from afar." "I can't believe it..." "Are you made of steel?" "Not blinking once even thought your son is right before you..." "That doesn't make any sense, how could you endure that?" "I can." "I've endured it for over twenty years." "I can endure it." "Yang Insuk." "That's impossible." "Even when made of steel, kids would melt any woman." "And what if Minjae finds out on his own?" "That will spell the end for him." "He's his grandfather's favorite now, but imagine if he learned that Minjae was the result of an affair with a bar girl in the States." "I've never been a bar girl." "It's pretty much the same, considering how you slept around before meeting Youngmin." "I never loved anyone other than Youngmin." "Might actually be true." "Did you sleep around out of love?" "You must have done that because making ends meet wasn't easy." "Anyhow, the moment the truth about you is revealed," "Minjae will start getting treated like an illegitimate child." "I'll just leave it to you." "I've had it with this." "I can't stand all that paranoia about Minjae's birth that keeps haunting me." "Why must I keep living this way?" "!" "Sometimes I even get the urge to tell everyone first." "Don't!" "It's my fault." "I will leave." "And I won't show up before him again." "Like that's going to work?" "!" "You'd miss him again in no time." "What if you end up missing him so much that you can't take it anymore?" "It's useless..." "You'd show up again." "Just one year." "No, six months." "Are you listening to me?" "I won't try anything funny." "Just allow me to see him." "If you endure it for a year..." "no, just a few months," "I won't show up before him again." "Please trust me, Nayoung." "How have you lived all these years?" "I remained in the States for a few years after the accident..." "What have you been doing for a living?" "If you were in an hit and run, how could you get any insurance money?" "I did." "They found the driver who hit me later on." "If they hadn't caught him, I probably would have starved to death." "I was hospitalized for over three years." "The first year I couldn't even walk." " But..." " Wait a moment." "What's the matter?" "Just feel dizzy." "Don't know what's wrong with my ears, but they keep making me dizzy." "I'm sorry, this is all my fault." "What do my ears have to do with you?" "You have a lot of worries." "Because of Minjae and I." "I know it's been a lot harder for you all these years." "How hard coping with secrets can be..." "Got a point." "We're not exactly having it easy." "But good to hear, that they found out and you got the money." "Nayoung." "I never thought of Minjae as my son." "I just gave birth to him." "I never even breastfed him once." "But..." "The older I get, the more I miss him." "All right, enough." "Just give me a few months." "I need to brace myself first, and then I'll leave." "What's that supposed to mean?" "You talk as if you had a few months left to live." "You'll have to forgive me, but I'll get going." "I can't leave the cafe closed for long." "Go ahead, it's not like we were going to solve this all at once." "I apologize." "They caught the hit and run culprit, and she got the insurance money?" "!" "There is no way." "Did I hit someone else?" "No..." "It's impossible." "Minjae!" "Ajumma." "When did you get here?" "It's been a while." "Sorry, I had to go to the bank." "I made you wait, so I'll give you a nice cup of coffee on the house." "I need to go." "You have an appointment?" "I got myself a job, part time." "A 3rd generation chaebol working part-time?" "I'll see you later." "Wait." "If you had to leave, why wait until now?" "I just wanted to see you before I left." "Because whenever I look at you, good things happen to me." "See you." "Minjae!" "Are you all right?" "Did you get hurt?" "Be careful..." "I was kidding." "You really..." "You scared me!" "Look at you..." "Be careful." "Ever heard of the proverb "don't waste your arrows on the hare"?" "What's that supposed to mean?" "You know?" "What could I possibly know?" "Am I not ignorant, after all?" "Then, how about this proverb, Mother?" "Burning the whole house to get rid of the mice." "Ahh..." "That I can understand." "Don't make a mountain out of a molehill, stuff like that?" "What deranged fool would possibly set the house on fire to catch mice?" "Tell me about it, Mother..." "You act all crude, so I guess I'll have to get down and dirty as well." "Ahh..." "Now I get it." "I guess we're the mice, Mother." "I really..." "I'm the mice, and the ones willing to burn the house down to catch me... are you and Mother, that's what." "Is that what you meant?" "You're all joining forces to bring me down, but you just wait." "We'll see who ends up regretting." "Aeri..." "No matter how much I might dislike you, would I set the house on fire?" "I'd get burned as well..." "You know what's the scariest thing in the world?" " The egg ghost?" " Ignorant people." "Once they go on a rampage, there's no stopping them." "Although they might regret after all is said and done." "And when it's too late to do anything about it." "Aeri." "Then, I guess you know this proverb, too?" "Which one?" "Live by the sword, die by the sword." "I see we've escaped from the realm of the ignorant, knowing such proverbs..." "Mother, I better go." "Hey..." "Well said." "You hit her right where it hurts." "Did she think I'd just sit here and watch her throw insults at me?" "Just imagine." "That beautiful village disappearing, to be replaced by a shipyard." "People running a business always make it sound easier than it is." "They just think a generous compensation is all it takes." "But how are you going to compensate people for the memories that will be destroyed?" "When did you become such a sentimentalist?" "I'm being haunted by doubts, making me wonder what I've been living for." "You'll disappoint Dad." "If you keep acting like this." "I've spent my entire life hanging from his lips." "All that concerned me was pleasing him." "And that is why I always envied you." "You lived in freedom." "Think it was any different for me?" "I was so scared of Dad I even went ahead with a marriage I didn't want." "But now you're doing fine." "Don't disappoint Dad." "Whatever it takes, get the villagers' agreements by the end of the month." "Youngmin." "Just go back to school." "That's where you belong." "The end of the month." "I can't wait any longer." "Jeongsuk." "You have a guest." "I have all the time." "Don't rush her." "I hear from Jeongsuk that you did something nice." "Jeongsuk, what are you doing?" "I'm coming." "Sorry for making you wait, I had to finish a few things." "It's all right." "Ahh..." "Jeongsuk, you put on your best face today!" "I didn't..." "Ahh..." "Enjoy your date, uh?" "It's really quite impressive." "See, doesn't it look peculiar?" "Take a look at this." "Let's go." "We got a call from Hawaii." "Baek Ingi arrived there." "They even shot a photo at the airport, let me show it to you." "No need." "But the production company said they will sue us." "They want to be paid damages because Baek Ingi refused to join the shoot." "I'll take care of that." "No, don't worry about that." "I sent my boys to reason with them, and they eventually changed their mind." "But, is there anything else I can do for you?" "There is something I'd like you to help me with..." "Go ahead and tell me." "There is someone who's bothering me, so I wonder if you could intimidate her a little." "I don't know who it might be, but will intimidation suffice?" "These days, people aren't afraid of gangsters anymore." "Go at it the wrong way, and things will just get noisy for nothing." " So why don't you just..." " But we can't... use violence against that person." "But that makes things even harder for us." "I'll give you concessions for all the new apartments that Atlantic Construction will build." "So just help her get a hold of herself." "Wow, Ma'am..." "That's quite the favor you're asking." "If you just asked us to beat her to a pulp, that'd be much quicker." "No, nevermind." "If she keeps bothering me, I'll ask you again." "Yoon Nayoung." "Wow..." "What are you doing in this neighborhood?" "This is not the kind of place where you usually see chaebol wives like you?" "!" "I had someone to meet." "President Hwang!" "Ahh..." "It's been so long!" "Is business going well?" "Sure is." "Aigoo..." "Let's meet more often." "I'll see you again, Director Park." "Right, President Hwang." "Thank you for last time." "You don't know how much trouble we had with them..." "But they came the day after with all the money." "See you." "He's a gangster." "One of the biggest names in his trade." "Without people like him, I can't run my business." "Try to handle things by the law, and it'll take ages to settle." "Right..." "Shall we go have a cup of tea somewhere?" "Later, I'm a little busy now." "Ever since I was little, whenever I had a problem I'd come here." "Seeing how vast the sea is, everything else would feel laughable at best." "Thinking that I could always endure hardships, since there were people having it even worse, always helped me cope with it all." "This place is really special to me." "Even when my father passed away, we cremated him and spread his ashes here." "And I did the same for the only man I have ever loved." "I can't even imagine living without." "If a shipyard is built here, where would I find my father, and call that man's name?" "Try to do it now." "Call your father's name, and that man as well." "Then, don't listen." "Don't complain later..." "I'm really doing it." "Yes." "Dad!" "I'm doing fine!" "Jungu...." "Did you meet my father?" "I'll get going." "Mom..." "Mom!" "Minjae..." "Enjoy your meal." "It was funny, wasn't it?" "Yes." "I usually don't scream like that." "I just stare at the sea, and scream in my mind, that's all." "I actually envy you, Jeongsuk." "The fact you have a place where you can release all that pent-up frustration." "How did you know my name?" "You're the village representative, think I wouldn't know your name?" "I'm no representative." "No one else was speaking, so I just got up and said whatever was on my mind." "And that's why you represented them." "It's not like that..." "Will you have a drink?" "No..." "I don't drink." "I just feel sorry drinking it all by myself." "Why would you feel sorry?" "I should say that, on the contrary." "Why would you?" "I'm eating all your side dishes..." "Because of that?" "It's the first time I eat steak since I came back to Korea." "Is it good?" "Yes." "When I was in the States, I missed Korean food, and now that we always eat Korean style at Grandpa's, I crave western food instead." "Eat all you want." "You want me to eat all this?" "Only eat what you can." "Yes." "Mom..." "Aren't you eating?" "Ahh..." "I had some kimbap in the afternoon." "With who?" "Alone." "I was just walking outside, and suddenly felt so hungry..." "What?" "It's because of me, right?" "No..." "I keep worrying you, so..." "That's not the reason why I was walking around." "Go ahead and eat." "Seeing you enjoy that steak is just..." "Mom..." "I'm not really attracted to Baek Ingi." "I'm just curious about her." "She's a bit eccentric." "If you look on the net, she polarizes people's opinions like few others do." "So don't worry." "Even if I wanted to meet her, I couldn't." "She went to Hawaii." "I read on the net this morning that she might stay there for a year or so." "And that she was dating someone." "Some articles even speculate that they left together." "Anyhow..." "We're not going to meet again, from now on." "Just a moment, Mom." "Who did you say?" "I don't really know who that..." "What?" "Ahh..." "Is that so?" "Yes." "I'm sorry." "I met some of the villagers, so I'm a little late." "I've been waiting you all day long." "Why are you wasting time on something so useless?" "Youngmin." "Dad has been calling me all day long, telling me to wrap up the expropriation by the end of the year." "Things are not like they used to be anymore." "If the villagers are against it, there's nothing we can do." "And who said I didn't know that?" "What's your major again?" "Environmental engineering." "So?" "So, what are you implying?" "Go to the site tomorrow and see it for yourself." "That's no place for a shipyard." "I'm not done talking!" "What?" "Sorry for raising my voice." "But try to put yourself in my shoes for a moment." "You know Dad's personality." "Any delays and he'll hold me responsible." "Not you, me!" "I'll take responsibility." "How?" "I'll just meet him and get his permission." "As if competition wasn't fierce enough, building a shipyard now..." "That's up to me." "You came here to help me, not to make such decisions." "All right." "So either help, or just let me handle it." "Who called, to answer it outside?" "Ahh..." "That..." "No need to tell me." "I was just saying." "Mom." "I guess it's because I'm a little sensitive these days." "Is it because of Aunt?" "That, too." "Finish eating." "Will you accompany me to the station, later?" "I'll take the train to Ulsan." "Yes." "Minjae." "Just take this taxi back home." "I'll see you leave first." "It's all right." "Don't tell Grandma that I came back to Seoul." "It'll only upset your grandfather if he learns." "Yes." "Tell me, Mom." "Whatever happens, I'll just trust you." "Yes, do that." "You love Mom, don't you?" "Go." "Careful on your way down, Mom." "Go." "It's Minjae..." "Hello?" "I said it's Minjae." "Can you come meet me tomorrow?" "I could come right away." "See you tomorrow, then." "I'll call you." "Wait, Ingi!" "Hello?" "The number you have dialed is not in service..." "Ehh..." "You really..." "Couldn't you just stay in Hawaii a while?" "So why did you help me?" "Was just worried President Hwang might do something to hurt you." "He's more than capable of that." "So that's why he sent Ingi to Hawaii that way." "Careful." "If he learns you're still in Seoul, you never know how he might react." "Director Jang." "I'm sorry." "For causing you all these headaches." "Should say "thank you" instead." "Thank you." "Ahh..." "Really." "Why am I even risking my life because of Baek Ingi?" "!" "Any place you can stay at for the time being?" "There's this place we go to whenever troubles come up." "Hey, Ingi..." "Let me ask you just one thing." "You really like that Kim Minjae?" "You might have to leave the industry because of this." "I wanted some kind of fresh start, but I never had the chance." "But then Minjae came into my life." "It felt as if he was gently whispering to my ears..." ""Just start anew, this is not the kind of life you want to live."" "And is that the reason why you gave up on everything you achieved so far?" "I don't want to think about it again." "Eonni, I'll get some shut-eye." "Let's leave in the early morning." "Don't call Hyeonpil." "He's not to be trusted." "Director Jang, we're really grateful." "For doing as Ingi wished." "No need to thank me." "I'm merely helping her because I don't like President Hwang." "Let's keep in touch." "Aigoo..." "Here." "Eonni." "If you hadn't come for me at the orphanage, what would have happened?" "Looks like I shouldn't even have bothered bringing you here." "I've regretted it more than once." "Eonni." "Come here." "The more I think about him, the more I'm impressed." "Who..." "Kim Minjae?" "Whenever I'm with him, I feel like another person." "I love that feeling." "Don't let it become too serious, Ingi." "He lives in a different world, Kim Minjae." "But I still like it." "Whatever the consequences." "Even if it makes me even more unhappy, I don't care." "Although it'd be hard to do any worse..." "You've really fallen for him..." "Should I just call him?" "He would come even at this hour, right?" "I miss him." "Ingi." "Don't say a thing." "I just want to fall asleep like this." "Did you just get back?" "My mother called a few times already." "I told her you went to Seoul, so she wanted you to come by." "But why aren't you answering the phone?" "I went to meet Yang Insuk." "She's alive, Yang Insuk." "But you knew that already, didn't you?" "It must have been three-four months after you and I came back to Seoul." "That was when Yang Insuk called me." "She was at the hospital, and wondered if I could go there." "On my way to New York to wrap up things at Columbia," "I went to the hospital where Yang Insuk was." "I thought I'd just go back at first, but I couldn't just ignore someone who'd spent months in a hospital bed." "She was victim of a hit and run, and I guess she almost died." "Since even the doctors said that surviving that accident was a miracle." "Her hospital bills alone were a few hundred grand." "So I called my brother." "Told him to ask no questions, and to get me some money." "Stop it." "I've heard enough." "I asked her if she had any place to stay, but she had nowhere to go." "And said she lost contact with you." "You gave her a year's allowance before you came back to Korea, so she didn't want to ask you anything more." "I said enough." "Honey..." "Let's just tell each other everything." "What we know, our every secret..." "Let's just speak our mind." "And let's not ever bring her up again." "Let's just forget her." "And how could I?" "She's approaching Minjae every chance she gets." "I told you, didn't I?" "That she would never leave Minjae alone." "She will." "She promised me." "You met her?" "When?" "A long time ago." "I was sending her some money every few months, and one day, she suddenly showed up in Seoul." "I told her to go back to the States, but there was no convincing her." "She was using Minjae to blackmail me." "And why didn't you ever tell me?" "I told you to leave her to me." "You kept sending her that money, so it's obvious she couldn't forget Minjae and eventually came back here!" "I'll handle it." "I'll make sure she doesn't meet Minjae again." "Leave her to me." "You won't be able to solve this." "And don't meet her again." "I'm taking care of this." "How are you going to do that?" "All right." "You're suspecting me." "Suspecting that I'm responsible for what happened to her?" "Does that even make sense?" "If I had believed that, I wouldn't even have brought this up." "Made you some coffee." "No..." "I won't have breakfast." "Where are you going at this hour?" "Taking the first flight to Seoul." "Dad wanted to see me and my brothers." "I'll have to send Minjae back to the States." "It's no use." "Yang Insuk would just follow him." "Then, what?" "Leave it to me." "I told you that you won't be able to." "Yang Insuk loves and cares for Minjae just as much as you do." "Although you'll hate to admit it." "I do." "All the more reason why I can't stand it." "I'll get going." "Think she'll give up on Minjae just because you ask her?" "If you do that, things will get even worse." "I am responsible for this." "So I must put an end to it." "I should have taken things to the end back then." "One of us should have died that day." "Honey!" "Leave Yang Insuk alone!" "Or else she might tell Minjae everything!" "We must stop that..." "So let her do whatever she wants!"
