(Episode 3)
(Eun Dong Joo)
Eun Dong Joo.
Dong Joo.
Dong Joo!
Eun Dong Joo.
Dong Joo.
Mom.
Mom!
Eun Dong Joo. Dong Joo.
Dong Joo. Dong Joo...
It's okay. It's all right.
You're fine.
It's okay.
What's with the bad dream?
It's because of her.
The twin I met today.
What were you dreaming about?
I was playing with her at a beach.
And I pushed her into the water.
You still have a long way to go.
Just because you heard the name once,
- you had a ridiculous nightmare? - Mom.
It's been more than 20 years.
Time has passed.
If you can't turn back time, you have to forget about it.
I told you.
The name, Eun Dong Joo.
You have to get rid of it from your memory.
That's how I've lived until now.
But I met her yesterday.
What if she finds out the whole thing?
The whole thing?
- What whole thing? - You know what I mean.
You know what you did to her.
What about you?
You didn't listen to me.
You just dropped out of high school and got yourself in trouble.
Stop it!
You know I hate hearing that.
Why would you bring that up?
Sabina.
Sabina. Forget about it.
Forget it.
The girl you met yesterday...
isn't your twin sister.
She's just a person with the same name.
A coincidence like this only exists in a movie.
No.
It feels strange.
She is about my age.
And I think she looks like her.
Don't worry.
Even if it was her,
I can take care of it.
I will make sure she won't show up around you anymore.
Tomorrow is an important day. You should get some sleep.
So...
your face blooms like a flower.
How do you feel?
Try to let out a big belch.
Is it because you grew up without your parents' love?
You always get indigestion when you have a nightmare.
I blame your mom for this.
What did she do when she abandoned you?
I wonder what she did to make you have nightmares every night.
It's been 30 years.
I heard the most important thing in the world is the umbilical cord.
If she just cuts it and runs away,
it's obvious that her daughter will be treading a thorny path.
She didn't just break your heart.
It's like she drilled holes in your chest.
I...
should see her again.
How?
I gave her my number. She'll give me a call.
Then what?
I have a strange premonition.
I'm sure she knows something about me.
Forget about it.
She lives in a different world from ours.
She must have thousands of luxury jackets like that.
She wouldn't give you a call just to find that one jacket.
Who is it at this late night?
- Hello? - Is this Ms. Eun Dong Joo?
Yes. Who is speaking?
Do you remember the woman you met at Seojin Hotel today?
Yes. I was going to...
- return the jacket. - That's good.
I'll text you the time and location.
Let's meet tomorrow.
Hello? Hello?
- It's off. - She wants to meet you?
She wants the jacket back?
Yes!
She might know something about my mom.
Once I meet her tomorrow, I'll ask her.
(Eun Dong Joo)
Don't worry, dear.
I can do anything for you.
Just like what I've done for you.
Hey, where is it?
Where did you hide it?
I saw it clearly with my own eyes that day.
The ledger, the bankbook,
the phone, and the money you collected.
Where's the black bag?
I'm asking you one last time.
Answer my question as I count to three.
One.
Two.
Two and a half.
- Three. - All right.
The money bag?
Where did I put it?
You punk.
Come here.
- Hey! - Stop it, Pil Seung.
Hey! Okay. Let go of me.
Put him in jail.
And check all the black box footage from the cars in the neighborhood...
to find out where the money bag is.
- Okay. - Darn it!
- Let's go. - Okay. I'll go myself.
- Grandma. - My goodness.
Gosh, I knew it.
- Follow me, you rascal. - Gosh, Grandma.
- I can't believe this. - You can't do this here.
Who's that old lady?
What?
Did you just call me an old lady?
Grandma.
All right.
So you're that jerk.
The one you caught last night.
That darn scumbag...
who preys on poor old people.
Hey, Granny.
How dare you.
- Grandma. - Ma'am.
Have you lost your mind?
I'm out of my mind, you jerk.
You don't even know why you're getting smacked now.
One is...
for the poor old ladies whom you preyed upon.
And the other is...
for my precious grandson.
I hit you because you did this to him.
You darn punk.
I should give you a good slap in the face.
Gosh, Grandma. Why are you swearing at him here?
This is embarrassing.
Let's go home now.
Let go of me. I should teach him a lesson.
Go home and get a good rest. I'll take care of this.
What was that?
Follow me.
It feels strange.
She is about my age.
And I think she looks like her.
That can't be right.
And it shouldn't be true for Sabina.
But what if it's really her?
Excuse me.
Did we meet yesterday?
Ms. Eun Dong Joo?
Yes. Are you Ms. Sabina's mother?
Do you know my daughter?
Of course. She's a famous celebrity.
Here. I was going to wash it, but I didn't have time.
It's okay. Bye, then.
Wait.
It's you, right?
Ms. Shin Nan Sook.
I'm sure.
I knew it when you called me last night.
I can never forget that voice.
Mom.
You're my mom.
You're my mom, right?
I haven't forgotten you even once.
Even after you abandoned me,
I believed you'd come back to find me.
So I didn't want to forget your face.
I wanted to recognize you when I see you.
Do you know how hard I've tried to remember your face?
Dong Joo.
Why?
Why did you leave me?
Why did you abandon me?
Why? Why did you do it?
Tell me.
Why did you abandon me?
Tell me why.
Why...
Why did you abandon me?
Please answer me.
Excuse me.
Are you the person you called me last night?
Ms. Eun Dong Joo?
Yes. You must be her mother.
I owe her a lot for yesterday.
Here's the jacket. I couldn't wash it,
so I brought this too.
Okay. I'll give this to her.
Your name is unique.
Is it your real name?
Yes.
Eun is a rare family name.
You have a pretty name.
Do you live in Seoul?
I live in Seoul now,
but I grew up...
in Busan.
Busan?
Actually,
I grew up in an orphanage.
Aram Orphanage...
in Jangshin-dong, Busan.
When I was five, my mom...
left me on the bus.
So I wanted to meet you today.
Your daughter seemed surprised to hear my name.
I was wondering if she knows me.
That wouldn't be the case.
I bet she was just flustered...
because of what happened yesterday.
She was born and raised in Seoul.
- But still, she might know... - It's impossible.
I'm sorry.
Something bad happened to her yesterday, so I was being sensitive.
It's okay. I'm sorry.
Bye, then.
Ms. Eun Dong Joo.
[VIU Ver] MBC E03 'Golden Garden' "The Nightmares" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
Here’s a word of advice.
When a mother abandons her kid,
there must be some unavoidable reasons.
So...
for your mom and yourself,
it might be better not to look for your mom.
Do you understand...
what I mean?
All right then.
Right. It's her.
She's Dong Joo.
I abandoned her in Busan, but how...
(28 years ago)
This is...
the worst-fated relationship.
It's not like we're a mother and a daughter. We're enemies.
Enemies.
Why is she back?
No.
This is it.
I have nothing to do with her anymore.
The second I abandoned her 28 years ago,
our relationship ended.
She doesn't even recognize my face.
She's not going to stand in Sabina's way.
Never.
Never ever.
I won't even see her again.
How did it go?
I was right.
Then?
Right. She's not Eun Dong Joo.
You're not going to see her again.
Just pull yourself together...
and get ready for the event.
Okay.
(You are invited to the I and K Group VIP Event.)
All right.
Everything will be fine.
Luck would have its way with me.
Why are you being like this, Grandma?
Stay quiet, you rascal.
If you fail to look after yourself once again,
I'll beat you up and teach you a lesson.
Okay. I get it.
I'll take good care of myself from now on.
So please let me work.
What? Look at you.
You still don't get it, do you?
Gosh. You silly thing.
You hurt your head...
and your belly, so you were in and out of consciousness all night.
What kind of criminal...
would get arrested by a detective who's half-unconscious?
Grandma!
Gosh, that creeps me out. Stop it.
I just hate it when you do that.
You got 10 days of sick leave.
Don't even think about leaving the hospital.
And I found a human CCTV...
to keep an eye on you.
A human CCTV?
Yes.
There she is.
Hello.
I'll be your caregiver from today.
The guitar...
Ms. Bell-bottoms?
What is going on?
Do you know each other?
What? My gosh.
You skirt-chaser. Did you flirt with her already?
No.
It's not like that.
By the way, is that the injury you got from yesterday?
It must hurt a lot. It's too bad.
This is nothing.
That guy... That Jang guy got taken to the ICU...
from my punches.
That's ridiculous.
Hey, I just met him...
and he was doing fine.
I clearly saw it with my own eyes.
Just go, Grandma.
I was going to leave even if you begged me to stay.
Miss,
like I said, make sure to never let him out of your sight...
and stay stuck to him for the whole week.
If he tries something silly, call me immediately.
- Okay? - Yes.
I'm taking this with me.
No.
Yes, I am.
Don't worry, ma'am.
I'll take good care of him.
Why would she take that?
- Grandma, gosh. - Hang on.
We need to get you changed. Be careful.
- What are you... - Be careful.
What are you doing now?
You should change into the patient gown.
I can do it myself.
Here.
Eat a lot, Sa Rang.
Okay, Mid Eum.
I think jjajangmyeon is the best food in the world.
Then eat as much as you want.
Dad, are you not eating?
You're off today, but you're going to work part-time.
I'm full already watching you eat. Here.
Mid Eum, you should eat a lot and grow a lot.
Why are you smiling, Princess?
Dad, Mid Eum says...
if family members get along well...
without fighting each other, it means they're rich.
Then we're very rich, right?
Yes, we are.
Still, I wish I had a mom...
like other kids do.
Mid Eum, don't you miss your mom?
I don't.
Why would I miss someone who abandoned us?
Okay. It's my fault.
Gosh, Sa Rang.
Be nice to your brother, okay?
He's the head of our family when I'm not here.
Make sure not to leave him, okay?
Okay. I won't, Dad.
Okay. I'll see you later.
Bye, Dad.
Dad, I'll be waiting up for you.
Come home early.
Are you nervous?
You're the one who seems nervous.
To be honest, my mom is tough.
By the way, what should I tell Mom?
Do you have to explain?
There's no one who doesn't know me in this field.
She'll be lucky to have a daughter-in-law like me.
It'll be a win-win situation all around.
- I guess you're right. - Don't worry.
Everything will be fine.
All you need to do is stay confident.
I'm sure luck is on my side.
Okay.
This is driving me crazy.
Toss and turn like that...
and the blood will flow right back out.
I don't care.
I'll be out for a while.
Ma'am.
I'm calling you from the hospital room.
Okay.
Ms. Bell-bottoms, can I use your phone for a while?
Why? I'm bored. I want to play some game.
Just a game, right?
That's what I said.
Can I make one phone call?
To my girlfriend.
- Just one phone call. - Okay.
Hey, it's me.
What about the thing I told you this morning?
There was no CCTV in the room. I just got the black box footage.
What? The black box footage?
So? Who stole the money bag?
The money bag?
Okay. I'll be right there.
Where are you going?
Hey.
You saw it yesterday, right?
The bag he had open in the room.
It vanished into thin air.
I have to go find out who took the bag immediately.
What's wrong?
What?
Nothing.
You're being strange.
Anyway.
Once I check the footage,
I will be able to catch the culprit.
No. You can't leave.
What are you doing?
Okay.
I'll ask Detective Han to bring the video then.
No.
You should just go.
Why do you keep changing your words?
(I and K Group VIP Event)
Why isn't he coming yet?
He'll be arriving soon.
Does he think he's a guest?
He's the director now. He can't just show up on time.
He should arrive early and check if everything is ready.
He still has a long way to go.
The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
He's better at spending money than making it just like me.
It's enough...
to have one person like that in this family.
And change the tie, please.
Where would I find a new tie here?
Yes.
I told you.
Don't do anything silly and stay quiet today.
That would be helping me.
And make sure not to drink too much during the after-party.
Don't get drunk and flirt with young girls.
That's disgusting.
Are you my boss or what?
Why would I do as I'm told?
This is my company.
If you don't like it, just quit.
Yes, Chairwoman.
Your wish is my command.
You knew this would happen?
Secretary Han.
This is why you're terrifying.
(Episode 4 will air shortly.)
(Episode 4)
Hello.
Sung Wook, do you remember me?
You drove us from Seojin Hotel to Miari.
You must be Dong Joo's friend.
I have the right person!
Do you how much I suffered trying to find you?
I had to look everywhere for the fare receipt.
Then I had to call the credit card company...
Never mind that.
What did you do with my bag?
I was waiting for your call.
Forget it!
Tell me where you are. I'll go there right now to get the bag.
Where?
Callas Gallery?
Let's talk about that when we meet.
Hey, I think I found the money bag.
That's not the problem.
You're about to go to jail.
The police are checking...
the black box footage to find where the money bag went!
What... What?
You go and turn yourself in now.
If you do, they might forgive you.
I need the money bag to turn myself in.
Wait a minute.
Go to Callas Gallery right now.
What do you mean why? We have to find the money bag!
Wait a minute.
Enlarge it.
Unbelievable. Those thieves were right in front of me.
Where are you going?
To catch them.
Those thieves.
(I and K Group VIP Event)
What are you doing? Park the car already.
Who is that woman?
Her name is Sabina. She's supposed to be famous.
Really?
Maybe I'm wrong.
Hurry.
Yes, sir.
(I and K Group VIP Event)
It's her for sure.
No matter how much time has passed,
it's her for sure.
Is it still far from Callas Gallery?
We are nearly there.
Don't look for me.
I'm going to disappear until this is solved.
She's such a troublemaker.
Ms. Oh Mi Joo!
You're under arrest for larceny and obstruction.
Spare me.
I was wrong. Spare me.
Spare me.
Where is the other one? Eun Dong Joo.
Where is she?
(I and K Group VIP Event)
Excuse me, do you know where Lee Sung Wook is?
I think he went inside.
Thank you.
It's that lady I saw yesterday.
What a coincidence that I see her twice.
Get a hold of yourself.
I have to find that driver right now.
What am I doing?
Where is he?
Where have you been? My mom will be here soon.
I am so nervous. I went to the bathroom.
Okay.
She is here.
Nice to see you.
- Nice to see you. - Hello.
Hello. Nice to see you.
Joon Ki.
Hello.
We will now begin I and K's...
VIP Customer Event.
I introduce to you I and K's Chairwoman Jin Nam Hee.
Thank you everyone for coming.
I hope you are loving...
our products.
What do you think?
Don't I look more beautiful than before?
We at I and K Group, dedicate endless endeavors for...
the beauty of women.
We wanted to thank our customers who have given...
so much love to our products.
That's why we arranged this event.
As for detailed explanations about our products,
it will be done by our group's next-generation leader.
He is Director Choi Joon Ki.
We had clear skies today after a long time.
The skies seem to be lighting up the future of our group.
It made me happy.
In addition to a brief introduction to our group,
I have prepared...
surprising news for you during the after-party.
I hope you will look forward to it.
As you know, we have endeavored...
to make products that are suited to you,
and that are loved by you.
I believe our customers' love is the motivating force...
for supporting such endeavors.
In particular, instead of diets that force people to starve...
which lead them to give up,
we researched and developed products endlessly.
Eun Dong Joo.
Many of you have observed the process...
- of our efforts... - Mid Eum's mom.
We will be more prepared...
Do you recognize me?
It's me Lee Sung Wook. Mid Eum's dad.
I...
You have the wrong person.
Don't do this. I know it's you.
Are you crazy? How dare you touch me?
- What's going on? - Who is he?
Please leave.
I told you, you have the wrong person.
Stop ruining this event and leave.
No, I know it's you.
How can I not recognize you?
No matter how time has passed, how can I not...
Why are you doing this?
What's going on there?
Joon Ki.
Really. I just need a moment.
If it's inconvenient, we can talk outside.
We have a lot to talk about.
It's been 12 years. Don't you want to see your child?
Wait a minute. I'll show you our Mid Eum's photo.
Look here.
Look. This is our Mid Eum.
Please stop it.
What's going on?
Who are you?
I... I am...
I am her...
Don't pay any attention.
He is one of my fans.
Follow me. Let's talk outside.
It's all right.
You are our valued guest. I'll take care of it.
Are you Ms. Sabina's fan?
Is there something you want from her?
Yes.
Actually, I...
In the past...
Please tell me.
What is this about?
I am her...
fan.
I was so glad to see her.
I'm sorry.
Oh, dear. Are you all right?
[VIU Ver] MBC E04 'Golden Garden' "The VIP Event" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
Mister, do you recognize me?
Why didn't you answer your phone? I called you so many times.
Where is that bag?
The money bag.
What's wrong?
Did something happen?
What must I do?
What can I do?
I found her.
What will I do now?
Who do you mean?
Who did you meet?
I met my child's mother.
Oh, dearest Ms. Jin.
This is so nice.
My sincere congratulations. You are really great.
You're gorgeous.
It's all thanks to your help.
I heard...
you're changing the model for your second line of products.
Can I stand in line too?
Doesn't she have the qualifications to be your model?
While getting an operation for her gout,
we tweaked her body a little.
What are you talking about?
I don't need any tweaking.
Don't you think so, Mr. Choi?
Of course.
Our Bambi is recognized by everyone as...
super-ultra-bagel girl.
The model for your second line will be our Bambi?
Of course.
I have the right to decide...
That has to be decided by the PR department.
That's right.
That work was moved to the PR department yesterday.
I forgot.
Next time then.
- We look forward to it. - Okay.
We'll be going now.
Ma'am, Director Choi is looking for you.
Joon Ki?
Is it because of her?
She's pretty.
He has good eyes for women.
The problem is he has the lowest taste like his father.
During his last business trip to New York,
he bought a five-karat ring at Bergdorf's.
He's going to propose?
I was wondering why you were looking for me.
You are with a guest.
Mom, I was going to introduce her to you.
- She is... - Ms. Sabina?
I am Joon Ki's mother.
It's an honor to meet you.
Please talk comfortably to me.
I can't do that.
You are not even our family.
Oh, mother.
She can start being our family now.
I've heard a lot about you.
That you are an iron lady who expanded the small food company...
you inherited from your father into a leading corporation.
An iron lady.
Does that mean I am...
so harsh and aggressive that I have no blood or tears?
That's not what she means.
That's quite correct.
I have put everything on the line for my company.
My life, my family...
even my son.
That means...
if anything goes against the good of the company,
I can throw that away...
no matter what it is.
Joon Ki, do you know the secret...
to how our products became the first in sales?
We reduced the costs of glossy and expensive packaging.
And we were faithful to the content of the products.
You know it well.
Same goes for women too.
Don't look at the glossy appearance only.
You must penetrate the outside to get to the content inside.
Mom.
Sometimes, there are excellent things...
not only in content, but in the packaging as well.
I think people call it designer goods.
The possibility of designer goods...
turning out to be a knockoff, is higher.
However, it is the consumer who makes the final choice.
May I have your attention?
Do you remember the promise Director Choi made before?
He will announce the important news in front of present reporters.
Director Choi has...
something he wants to say...
to the woman he loves the most in the world.
I will smile shyly
But I really want to tell you
These words
Thank you for being you
This must be the surprise...
that Joon Ki was planning.
I always think
Today you are
Most beautiful
Person who is standing in front of me
In the world
Oh, dear.
I hate things like this.
Now everyone has found out.
Actually, today is the 60th anniversary of our company,
and the 30th year since I took over as chairwoman.
I wanted to keep this quiet.
But Director Choi has prepared such a wonderful surprise.
Anyway, thank you, my son.
Since you prepared this,
won't you put on the ring personally?
How did he know my size?
It fits me perfectly.
Thank you so much, my son.
Okay.
You need to say your greetings.
It will be your last.
Wait.
Sabina, wait.
I will never forgive you.
How dare you humiliate me in front of so many people?
I've become a laughing stock now. What will you do about it?
You can understand the situation.
What can I do back there?
My mom really is an iron lady without any tears or blood.
If I go against her, I'll get kicked out without a penny.
That won't be good for you either.
Stop it.
I waited for you for three years.
I can't wait any longer.
If you want to keep me, get your mother to approve our marriage.
If you don't, we are really finished.
Sabina.
Drink this.
People's heart is something you can't control.
Since she has ignored her child for 12 years,
she has no intention of coming back.
- It's better... - This place...
will end at 9pm.
I've kept the money bag safe.
Follow me and I'll give it to you.
My friend will be waiting for me.
Let me go and call her.
Darn.
She's not even answering my call.
I met the driver, and after 9pm...
Who can it be?
Hello?
Eun Dong Joo. Where are you?
Who are you?
Don't you recognize my voice?
It's that guitar guy.
What do I do?
What should I do?
There's nothing you can do but to come with me.
Why can't I get a taxi?
Oh, my legs.
The person you have reached is not available.
Eun Dong Joo.
How did you know I was here?
Did anyone see you?
Tell me. Did anyone see you?
Is that all you can say to the husband you're seeing...
after 12 years?
- Husband? - Yes, husband.
If you lived together and had a baby, that's a couple.
- Lee Sung Wook! - What are you so afraid of?
Just because you changed your name and pretend to be someone else,
that doesn't mean you're not Dong Joo.
What?
Back then,
I did everything for you.
I loved you so much.
No, forget it.
Forget about me.
But our son...
you gave birth to our son Mid Eum.
You're his mother, but don't you ever think of him?
Stop it.
Even animals don't forget about their babies.
That tiny baby you left behind...
is already in fifth grade.
The poor boy grew up without even...
knowing his mother's face.
Since you don't want us,
I'll just ask one thing from you.
I don't want my son growing up hating his mother.
I'm asking you.
Just meet with him once.
Meet him and apologize to him.
Pat him just once.
That will be enough.
I'm asking you.
Just do that.
I'm asking you.
Listen to me carefully.
When people live,
they make mistakes.
Some mistakes...
can be forgiven, and some can't be forgiven.
The fact that I met you...
is a mistake that I can't forgive myself for.
That's right.
To me, you're a mistake, a blemish,
and an ugly wound that I can't erase.
If it's possible, I want to cut open my brain...
and carve out the times...
I spent with you.
You said even animals recognize their babies.
Right.
I'm no better than an animal.
Not only you, but your child...
is already dead to me.
When I came out of that house a long time ago,
I buried all of you in the ground!
- Eun Dong Joo. - Don't call me by that name.
You have to bury me just like I did.
We must not see each other as long as we live.
I'll accept all my punishment when I die.
So in this life, do as I tell you!
Dong Joo.
Stop clinging on to me.
I am too good for you, now and in the past.
Forget me.
Forget me!
Stop clinging on to me.
Just get out of my life!
Dong Joo. Mid Eum's mom!
Dong Joo.
Dong Joo!
What just happened?
(Golden Garden)
Move him quickly.
I should pay for my crime.
You just killed a man.
- What am I going to do? - Someone is coming.
Didn't you hear something?
- Was there an accident? - Stop the car quickly.
What?
When is Dad coming?
He said he'll be finished by nine. He's late.
I have a bad feeling about Joon Ki.
