QUEEN OF TEARS
EPISODE 10
Hey!
QUEEN'S BOXING GYM
You found the right place.
This building has the best wi-fi in town.
Come by whenever you want.
Thank you.
WINNER BOYS YOUTH GROUP, BAEK HYUN-WOO
"Baek Hyun-woo"?
Did he use to box?
Yes.
And he was good at it.
He's so smart that he uses his brain when boxing.
He predicts his opponent's movements.
Simply put, he's a living simulator.
He lures you in, then dodges your moves.
He waits until you're exhausted, and then he lands his punches on you.
You become powerless.
He even knocked me out too.
I couldn't locate you, so I couldn't send you the papers.
Here you go.
Make sure you hire an attorney.
What?
I called them before hopping out of my car.
You've been caught in the act, so you'll be taken to the station.
POLICE FOR THE PEOPLE
MR. YOON EUN-SUNG
MR. PYEON
Hyun-woo?
Have you been lying low at your ex-husband's of all places?
I'm disappointed.
Disappointed?
That's rich coming from you.
How did you find me?
You should know by now that I do anything I set my mind to.
It was easy to find you.
So, Hae-in.
Don't turn me any more evil.
Are you threatening me?
Yes, I am.
But here comes the real threat, so listen up.
I saw your doctor's diagnosis.
But your doctor refuses to elaborate
since I'm not your guardian.
So…
I'm going to be just that.
Are you crazy?
Yes, I think I am a little.
I know you don't have much time.
So I don't either, and that drives me nuts.
I have nothing to fear.
Fine, do as you please.
I have nothing to fear either.
Your parents don't know that you're ill.
Why haven't you told them?
Because you're scared.
I understand. They already lost a son once.
Hey, Eun-sung.
Keep acting this way
if you want me to make those you love miserable.
If you don't,
come back soon.
Your position is still available.
You have two days.
I'll hold a press conference then.
See you there.
Leave it all up to me.
The one who'll save you…
is me, not Hyun-woo.
You bastard!
How could you do this to us?
How could you do this to me?
I'm going to kill you!
Gosh, Soo-cheol.
Hey, are you okay?
Our family is ruined
because I was fooled by you.
I'm to blame.
You idiot.
It's not your fault.
Anyone would've been deceived.
It's not your fault, so stop crying.
Where's Da-hye?
Where is she?
Just tell me
if she's doing fine.
Please.
You just tripped on a stone and fell
while running in the dark.
Why would I?
Because you were drunk.
I didn't drink.
I'm saying the others shouldn't know that Eun-sung was here.
Why was he here?
I should know why that bastard came here.
There's something
I need to do, so don't tell our parents just yet.
Answer me.
Fine.
I have night blindness, so I couldn't see anything.
You know I can catch mosquitoes in the dark.
Yes, seeing in the dark is your sole talent.
Exactly, and it was this guy.
The new chairman of Queens.
-Really? -Yeah.
That means he's their sworn enemy.
Exactly.
What? Do you know him?
He's my type.
YOON EUN-SUNG
Damn it.
Took you long enough.
Did you delete your Korean number, email, and social media?
Of course.
I'm moving in under a fake name too.
Good.
Let's not call each other.
-Only call if it's urgent for now. -Okay.
By the way,
did you see Soo-cheol?
Why?
No reason.
He's very weak-minded.
I'm sure he's shocked.
So? Are you worried?
Why would I be?
I'm just curious. That's all.
Soo-cheol…
is furious at you.
Is that so?
He's going to make you pay if he finds you,
so lie low.
Okay. Bye.
Of course, he's mad.
I would be too.
He's finally matured up.
He wasn't a complete fool after all.
Da-hye…
BAEK HYUN-WOO
The person you dialed is unavailable.
Please leave a message after the beep. You may need to pay…
What happened?
You got off work hours ago, so why are you late?
And what happened to your face?
I just…
Well…
-Did you get hit? -No, I didn't.
How badly hurt are you?
Hae-in, let me explain.
Hae-in. Please?
Let me talk. Hold on. Let me--
Stay still.
Stop it.
Come here. Let me check.
Why is this red? Did you get clubbed or something?
Let me…
explain.
I wasn't beaten up.
Open your mouth.
Did you bite your tongue?
No.
I didn't bite my tongue or get beaten up.
Look. I'm perfectly fine.
I just got some scratches and a split lip.
And why exactly?
Stay still.
I'm not trying to brag,
but I was up against three men.
It wasn't an easy fight.
And they
even carried
batons and other weapons when they came for me.
And you weren't armed?
Well…
You probably didn't know, but I used to box when I was little.
I can take blows well,
so it didn't hurt one bit.
Hold on.
It just stung.
Who was it? Which lunatic did this to you?
Remember that land broker
who's on the No Fly List?
So…
you were mobbed while tracking the scammer down?
But I won.
I'm not impressed.
You should've run away if you were outnumbered.
He was arrested though.
We can turn the tables if he's proven guilty--
Shut up.
If this ever happens again,
just run away.
Promise me.
Answer me.
You said to shut up.
But promise me.
I'm sorry.
I can't do that.
I've made a promise already.
What promise?
It's about you.
Anyway…
It's a promise to myself.
Don't make promises
about me.
Only married couples do that. And…
We're divorced, so we don't have to.
Come back beaten up like this again,
and I'll kill you myself.
Got that?
I wasn't beaten--
Okay.
Let's eat.
What happened to your face?
I fell last night.
What happened?
Gosh, what happened to you?
I tripped and fell.
So you both fell?
-Did you guys fight? -I wouldn't dare.
I heard
that he used to box.
About that…
So you heard.
He visited my gym yesterday.
He was shocked at your trophies.
-I see. -Did you play sports?
-Yes. -Gosh.
I can finally say this now, but it wasn't easy raising him.
He won every contest
and was always in the top ten in the country
after every exam.
We didn't know which path to encourage him to take.
You're just perfect.
-No. -It sounds like I'm bragging about my son.
But it's the truth.
He definitely took after me.
No, Hyeon-tae is the one who took after you.
Everyone said Hyun-woo was the odd member of our family.
I take after my mom, so I can't lie.
What about you?
He doesn't take after me.
Why not? Of course, I do.
As for Hae-in,
she's beautiful
just like her mother.
Hyun-woo.
What is it?
Actually…
Hae-in told me not to tell you but--
About what?
-What? -What?
You had something to say.
-Did I? -No?
I thought you did.
Go on, then.
What's with him?
Ignore him.
Have you applied ointment this morning?
No, I was in a rush.
Let me see your face.
-You need to apply this often. -But I'm okay now.
No, you're not.
Apply ointment
and replace the bandage often, so it won't scar.
There.
Go.
Okay.
All right, then.
I'll be leaving now.
Okay.
Drive safely.
What is it?
It's rush hour right now,
so I think I should wait
five minutes.
Well…
It's always best to avoid traffic.
Yes, exactly.
Right.
YONGDU-RI SUPERMARKET
What if we had done just that?
What do you mean?
If we had applied ointment on time,
disinfected our wounds,
and replaced our bandages every time,
would things have been different?
No, before that.
What if we had broken up
around the time when we had ice cream
right here?
If we hadn't gotten married, we would've cherished
the memories even to this day.
There would've been no need
for wounds
to fester
or scars to form.
You'd have met someone
who was kinder, warmer,
and better than me.
You'd be happily living together.
Probably not.
If we had broken up,
you probably
wouldn't have known how I was doing.
But I would've known what you were up to.
And I probably
would've been regretful.
But if you knew how things would end up--
Even still,
I would've made the same choice.
But had I known then what I know now,
I would've asked you more often.
Ask what?
How your day went.
"Is there anything
that's troubling you?"
I regret
not asking you such questions.
What time did you come home last night?
Is the chairman okay?
I understand
what you mean.
But first,
bring the chairman back.
Then we can discuss.
We don't need to.
I'm going to marry Hae-in as soon as I can.
What? Marry her?
Did she agree to it?
Do you still not know me?
I'll make it happen.
INTRANET
NEW PERSONNEL APPOINTMENT
BAEK HYUN-WOO REMOVAL FROM POSITION DUE TO MALPRACTICE
Did you read it?
What's going on?
Is something up?
It's smaller than I thought.
It's just right for one person.
You must be shocked by the sudden announcement.
I did somewhat see it coming.
But…
"malpractice"?
Do you have proof?
Of course. A personnel committee will be scheduled soon.
Find out for yourself then.
I was surprised.
Yongdu-ri, was it?
The air was fresh.
Even still, how could you take her there?
I guess you didn't hear.
I saw her yesterday.
Did she not tell you?
We had no time.
I was quite busy.
Mr. Pyeon was arrested yesterday.
I see.
I guess you didn't hear.
I don't understand.
From what I heard,
he's also feigning ignorance right now.
But don't worry. I have a knack
for revealing truths.
Is that so?
Good.
Let's do what we do best then.
Bye.
Shouldn't we say hi?
Let's not. He's like Crown Prince Sado in that rice chest.
-What do you mean? -Didn't you watch the movie?
Instead of firing him,
they placed him in front of everyone to see.
They want to see who's on his side.
Jeez, is that why they put him next to the smoking room?
They want to see who he's close with.
Let's go.
I didn't think you'd pick up my call.
Right.
I don't delete numbers that haven't been settled yet.
There are always those who refuse to pay the matchmaking fee.
I chase them to the ends of the earth and make sure they suffer.
That's my way of settling things.
Yes, I know.
But I'm pretty precise about my settlements.
What?
Maybe you didn't get what you wanted because you didn't earn it.
Are you saying I didn't do my job?
Did you dedicate decades of your life and slave away under this roof?
Or did you live abroad alone for many years like Eun-sung?
It's not like you worked for free either.
So I'm a bit dumbfounded
that you demanded to be the CEO after doing a few chores.
Even still, you're telling me to go abroad
with little money.
Isn't that too harsh?
I'll let you be the CEO then.
But do your money's worth.
How?
Find Hong Man-dae.
What?
What do you…
There aren't many hospitals that are fully staffed around the clock
and have a VVIP room
that covers an entire floor.
All right. Let's begin.
Okay.
Hello.
Is this the VIP room administration at Hanju Hospital?
Our CEO wants to receive stem cell therapy.
Is your VIP room on the 23rd floor available?
What? He did what to my father?
Where did he take him?
I'm still looking into it.
According to the nurse, Seul-hee wasn't involved.
Eun-sung did it single-handedly.
Damn it.
I'm going to make them pay.
You wait. I called a taxi.
I'll be in Seoul soon.
I'm hanging up.
Hey, you're my mom's daughter.
She tricked me that day.
I was meaning to return this.
Here.
Your mother lent it to me that day.
But…
why did she?
So that…
I could wipe off what I had spilled.
What did you spill?
Why are you crying?
Well…
Gosh, I almost told you.
What's it to you?
Anyway, give that back to her.
Only the biggest fools cry when times are tough.
What did you say?
I didn't cry.
And only the average fools endure it.
Then what do the wisest do?
They eat meat when times are tough.
Next time, have meat instead of crying like a fool.
What is he saying?
Meat, my foot.
Jeez, this town is so weird.
VILLAGE HEAD
Looking good, Du-gwan.
Why are you guys here?
We're seeing you off for the last time.
Hey.
Am I dying or something?
I'm Park Seok-hun, the new village head.
INAUGURATION OF PARK SEOK-HUN, THE NEW VILLAGE HEAD
It's a great day today. Enjoy yourselves.
The inauguration party will take place
at my pork and rice soup restaurant.
Please come by and have some. I promise to do well!
Please watch me!
-Park Seok-hun! -Park Seok-hun!
Let's go eat.
By the way,
where's Chun-sik?
She's his daughter.
We know everyone in this town. Should we have hired foreigners?
And last time…
Tell me in detail.
What did Seok-hun's men say to you?
Remember we went drinking during the farm succession gathering?
And the receipt went missing.
-That's why? -That's not all.
They also brought all the part-time resumes
from the urban-rural bazaar two years ago
and claimed the part-timers were chosen out of favor.
I can't believe them.
Calm down.
There are two things that don't exist in this world.
One, freebies.
Two,
a peaceful transfer of power.
That's true, Du-gwan.
Those are worldwide facts.
They're doing what they all do.
When a new power takes over,
they torment those closest to the previous one.
Goodness.
That's not all.
They'll be erasing all traces of the previous regime soon.
Erasing traces?
Paint more. I can still see it. Here, use this.
-Okay. -Okay.
-Thank you. -Sure.
VILLAGE HEAD
Seok-hun.
The pears are innocent.
What?
What you want to erase aren't those pears.
It's my presence in this village.
You want to erase my reputation as the wisest village head.
That's not true.
Yongdu-ri's new catchphrase will be
"The Pretty Apple Village."
So we need to draw them.
There are tons of walls around here.
Did you have to use this one?
We're not asking you to treat us as if we're still in power.
Just treat us with some respect.
Are you going to keep watching?
It's uncomfortable.
INBOX
UNDELIVERED DA-HYE
Where are you?
-I'm behind the tree. -I see.
Thanks, honey. You saved me.
Stay focused.
-Use your poisoned darts. -I have none. I only have a hatchet.
I told you to upgrade your weapons when you get money.
Who uses a hatchet nowadays?
Even a Vulcan isn't enough.
I don't have any money.
I need to hunt to get some, but I've been too busy to go hunting.
Look behind you.
You keep getting hit because you only look ahead.
You see, they come from the front when I look back.
Look behind you!
Are you mad that I'm bad at this?
We live in a dog-eat-dog world,
so you have to be more cautious.
FRIEND LIST GEONUMAMA
What's the matter?
OFFLINE 2 HOURS, 3 MINUTES, 4 SECONDS
Da-hye…
was online two hours ago.
Thank you so much.
Seriously. Thank you.
Thank you so much.
Go home safely, ma'am.
Bye.
Hello, ma'am.
I just met with the Sama Medical Center director's wife.
Chairman Ryu Seong-gwang's mistress is at their VIP room.
She's resting after getting her breasts done--
Yes.
Okay. I'll call you back later.
What brings you here?
I remember you telling me that you knew little
about legal matters
since you've been in the beauty industry and matchmaking wealthy families
all your life.
-So? -So I'm here to tell you something.
You're managing
thirteen unregistered branches of your spa.
You shouldn't do that.
Look.
You're nitpicking over the fact that I worked harder than others.
That hurts my feelings.
Not only did you work hard, but you also dodged a hefty sum of taxes.
Gosh, how much tax is all this?
How much--
By the way, who are you?
Right.
This is me.
ATTORNEY KIM YANG-GI
Ms. Ko.
You're like a celebrity in our field, so I'm a bit starstruck right now.
Why am I famous?
Because you're an excellent matchmaker and homewrecker.
You'd do everything in your power to split couples up
if they didn't pay you well.
You'd make false reports anonymously and hire people to seduce them.
Thanks to you, I got some work.
These are all the clients
at our firm.
This has nothing to do with you, so why do you care?
These divorced couples
won't sit still if they find out the truth.
They're all hot-tempered
and from influential backgrounds.
The National Assembly, Prosecutors' Office, the court…
Goodness.
This chairman
was a former gangster.
I get it, so be quiet.
Why are you doing this?
I was on your side deep down.
Then you should prove it.
But you see…
Sentiments don't move me.
Only cash does.
I'll be honest.
They offered me a wonderful deal, so I'm hesitant to refuse it.
So first, let me see what you can offer--
Damn it!
You have no right to bargain.
Are you a calculator?
You're very quick-thinking.
How could you think of striking a deal?
Jeez.
That's so harsh.
Don't compare me to an object.
You know me, right? I never hesitate to get my hands dirty.
Quit calculating unless you want to go to prison.
Speaking from experience,
you're the type those ladies
hate the most.
Yoon Eun-sung is very thorough.
There was nothing on the dashcam.
I came up with a list of high-level general hospitals
that allow security guards and have VIP rooms with private elevators
where you can rent out an entire floor.
-I've been looking into them. -So? Did you find him?
It'll take a few days.
I think we should search within an hour driving radius from Seoul.
Why?
Chairman Hong is critically ill.
Most ambulances don't have oxygen tanks,
which means the medical team must've had to manually give him oxygen.
They could've only done that for an hour.
Yes, that's plausible.
Then that rules out five of these.
I'll ask around and check the rest.
Let's share the list and look into it too.
Yes, ma'am.
You're like a family.
I'm loving this vibe.
The other side wasn't friendly at all.
Do you think I was happy to kick you out?
How have you all been?
How is Ms. Kim doing?
Wait.
I'm sorry, Mi-seon. I should just leave.
Goodness, we're already here though.
They're all in there and waiting to apologize.
I already know what they're going to say.
"We didn't know you were present."
"We weren't trying to hurt you. We're sorry."
We didn't know you were here.
We weren't trying to offend you.
Anyway, we're really sorry.
Right? You're sorry.
They just don't know the full story.
Exactly. We only read about how you were ruined.
-Right? -But still, we didn't believe the media.
"No way. They'll probably still prosper
-for another three years." -That's right.
-Yes. -We wanted to check the facts.
And share the truth.
I understand.
I'm at fault too.
I should've told you I was here.
-I was only listening in. -I'm relieved.
We'll be seeing each other often, so I'm glad we reconciled.
That's right.
It won't be for that long.
We're just taking a break.
We're only here to rest.
We've been to places like Bali, Hawaii, and Cancún way too often.
So we thought we'd visit an unusual place this time.
"Unusual"?
Compared to Cancún? Definitely.
Yongdu-ri is unique, and there's no ocean either.
It's a bit uncomfortable, but I think this is a good experience.
When will I get to stay at a place like this ever again?
No amount of money can buy this experience.
Right, and you're broke too.
-Sorry? -It's true that you're poor for now.
Their assets are frozen, right?
Yes, but they'll get them later.
Right, but they don't know
if they'll still be alive by then.
Our family owns 50,000 pyeongs' worth of land that's been a green belt
for 50 years.
Exactly.
All right, then.
How about you guys all leave now that you've reconciled?
I've never seen anyone leave our town
after saying that they would.
Excuse me, but what are you getting at?
I just have a hunch
that we'll be seeing each other often for a very long time.
And I'm happy about that.
Let's go then.
-Go? -Yes, go.
-Right now? -Yes, right now.
-Bye. -We're going now.
What…
Goodness.
I'm so stressed.
Caffeine.
Caffeine!
JUNE'S GARDEN
PLEASE PAY IN ADVANCE
I'd like to order.
Please take my order.
We take orders up here.
Two shots of espresso.
That'll be 3,200 won.
-Do you have an affiliated card? -It's okay.
Here.
It doesn't work.
How will you pay, ma'am?
Look. I'm in dire need of some coffee.
Can I drink some first, then pay you later?
Drink first, pay later.
May I do that?
I'm sorry, but there's a line.
Could you step aside?
Hello.
Ten iced Americanos,
ten iced lattes, a container of syrup,
and another one full of ice cubes.
-Okay? -Sure. I know.
Also, I'd like to pay for hers too.
Okay.
Why are you having coffee when you can't sleep well?
Anyway, thanks for the coffee.
No need to thank me.
It's not free.
All right, let's begin.
-Okay. -Natasha.
Yes?
Be her mentor for the day.
Okay.
Nepotism?
Are you talking to me, young lady?
Yes, I'm talking to you.
Why are you speaking casually? I'm older than you.
I'm not a young lady. I'm your senior.
Do you know what that means?
Yes, times have changed.
I didn't even dare to step on my seniors' shadows back in the day.
What? What shadow?
Is she a boomer or what?
Do you not want to learn? Forget it.
Fine. What am I supposed to do?
Follow me.
Hurry up.
Come on.
I'll only demonstrate once.
Do this. Then this.
Then like this.
Your turn.
Like this?
Hold this part.
No, not like that.
You told me to hold it!
Is Korean that hard? Do you not understand?
Hold it like this.
Ms. Jeon!
You should fire her. She's a lost cause.
-Jeez. -What? You are.
There sure was nepotism involved.
Gosh!
Look at you.
You didn't get lost.
So? Do you want a hug?
No, thanks. Did you bring it?
You know this is a violation of the labor law, right?
I should be at a farm right now,
baking pizza with organic cheese.
Do you want a hug?
No, thanks.
I just don't get it.
Why did you choose to stay at your former in-laws'?
We were in a rush and just happened to stay here for a bit.
Still, I wouldn't have come here.
Let's say I had to choose between prison and my in-laws.
-I'd choose the former. -No way.
At least I wouldn't have to cook in prison.
My mother-in-law cooks everything. We had japchae and ribs for breakfast.
Gosh, you said "mother-in-law."
Be honest. Is the divorce fake?
-What are you saying? -If not, how could you be so affectionate?
I'm not affectionate. You're mistaken.
Why do you think Mr. Baek is still at work even after the humiliation he received?
What humiliation did he get?
I guess you didn't hear.
I heard on my way here.
He's waiting to be reassigned.
Waiting to be reassigned? What for?
Some malpractice or something.
They'll hold a personnel committee soon.
Malpractice?
What kind?
The Audit Team couldn't find anything on him.
He received bribes from a law firm.
What?
Hold on.
Did he embezzle money from labor costs?
He gave a rival company a list of our VIP customers.
There are many more that I can come up with.
So you're going to make false accusations?
Is that it?
I'm debating which one to use.
But whatever it is, he'll become an ex-convict.
Hey, you're coming home together.
Right.
I had an appointment in Seoul.
Hey.
I thought long and hard.
-"Should I tell him this?" -Then don't.
Do you know who came by last night?
I do.
You do? So you know Yoon Eun-sung visited Hae-in.
I do.
But why did he secretly visit her in the middle of the night?
Is something going on between them?
Don't be ridiculous.
Don't snap at me.
I didn't snap at you, and there's nothing going on.
There's absolutely nothing going on.
You don't know anything.
What's his problem?
No way.
Is he jealous?
Hae-in didn't even budge after hearing about So-yeong.
But Hyun-woo…
Gosh.
What an idiot.
Jeez.
Great job today!
Thank you!
-Let's start with Natasha. -Okay.
You picked 4,000 which makes the total 280,000 won.
But I'll give you 300,000 won.
As for you, you picked 70 which makes
the total 4,900 won.
You owe me coffee, so you'll get 1,700 in total.
-Ms. Lee Su-gyeong? -Here.
-Good work. -Thank you!
-Ms. Park Seon-nyeo? -Here.
-Great job. -Goodness.
Honey, here are your sleeping pills.
Goodness, honey.
You haven't slept so well without any medication in a long time.
Why are you drinking alone at this hour?
Well…
I feel gloomy now that I've stepped down from my position.
I was only the village head of this tiny neighborhood.
I can understand.
Gosh.
-Really? -Take a look.
My battery is still half full at this hour
since no one has called me.
I see.
No one's picking up either.
When I used to be the vice-chairman, I almost never heard the message
that played when you didn't pick up.
But I hear it every day now.
Gosh.
This is the end of our reign.
I agree with the saying that even your shadow abandons you
in dark times.
Goodness.
Do you have any makgeolli?
Father! You said Chemicals and Motors were mine.
Then break up with her.
If not, you'll never get my companies!
No, I refuse to break up with her.
What did you say?
-Never. -How dare you?
Stop! Stop right there!
CEO JANG AND HIS THREE SONS
Come on, now.
They always end it at the best parts.
Goodness.
Do they really do that?
Sorry?
Is that how the rich live?
I beg to differ.
Those dramas make me think
the writers didn't do their research properly.
How come?
The characters are often seen grabbing their necks.
But the rich are very strict about their blood pressure.
-After all, we have a live-in doctor. -A live-in doctor?
They remove sodium from our diet if our blood pressure rises even a bit.
They remove it all.
And the houses all have stairs in the living room.
Exactly. You don't all have them, do you?
It's not the Opera House.
We all do, and we often use them to go upstairs.
But we take the elevator when going down to protect our knees.
The writers need to do better research.
This is just right.
Are you sleeping?
Hae-in, are you asleep?
What is it?
Say what you need to say.
I heard Eun-sung came by yesterday.
Did Soo-cheol tell you?
That's not important.
What did he say?
He just asked why I was here.
What's it to him?
What else?
He also told me
to work again
and come home.
Come home?
Yes.
Will he move out if you do?
He'll stay?
Well…
We didn't talk in detail.
Does he want to live with you?
You two aren't together.
Neither are we, but look at us.
No, we're different. We were…
married.
But not anymore.
You've helped me so far, and I think you've done enough.
What are you saying?
I heard you're waiting to be assigned.
Why didn't you tell me?
It's nothing.
How is it nothing when the reason is malpractice?
Who knows on what documents they forged your signature?
Embezzlement? Something illegal? He's capable of anything.
You're in no position to worry about me.
You didn't want to worry about me.
Same goes for me.
I'll take care of my own issues.
I feel uncomfortable
that you're suffering uselessly because of me.
Don't be so cold.
I'm just doing it for you--
Don't do anything for me.
I'll find my own solutions.
Hello, Doctor.
Yes, I'm taking the medication.
But I've been getting a lot of headaches lately.
I've been giving myself the WBC injection every day.
The tumor didn't seem to have grown in the latest photos.
Could it be something else?
Hyun-woo.
Wake up.
Wake up right now.
What is it?
Tell me the truth.
Hae-in is sick, isn't she?
Tell me. She's been acting strange lately.
She also fainted last time.
I think she's injecting herself too.
I think something is up.
She wants it to be a secret.
But…
I need you to take care of her when I'm away,
so I'll confide in you.
What is it?
She has…
a brain tumor.
But…
it's big,
and it's a rare case.
So she can't get surgery right now.
She's monitoring it while taking medication.
But the rate
isn't high.
What rate?
Do you mean
the survival rate?
Goodness.
I can't believe this.
She's still so young.
No one in her family knows
except for her aunt.
Not even her parents?
No.
They should still know about this.
When did you find out?
Do you remember that day when I visited
and said I wanted to divorce her?
I found out that day after returning to Seoul.
What do you mean?
So…
you were determined to divorce her,
then suddenly had a change of heart because…
Yes.
After finding out about it, I had decided to maintain our marriage.
You scumbag.
You should know better.
Oh, dear.
I had no idea
and only pitied you.
How could you?
I know.
I'm a scumbag.
Hae-in found out about everything yet still came here when I told her to.
So, Mom…
please take…
good care of her
when I'm away.
I beg you.
Mom.
What is it?
I came by for some kimchi.
Your mom is crying.
-Why? -Isn't it obvious?
She was always against it and wanted me to quit.
But now that I've stepped down, she must be upset.
What? She said she was relieved that you were no longer the village head.
She didn't mean it.
Goodness.
Mom.
Just go. Come back later.
This is a feast.
I should just eat here today.
Tell Hae-in to come and eat.
Okay.
Honey.
What's with you? Move.
I know what you're going through.
But…
you see…
Why don't you think like this?
I, Baek Du-gwan, used to belong to the people.
But now, I'm all yours.
Why would I ever want that?
Is that so?
Goodness, we're feasting for breakfast.
What's the occasion?
Please help yourselves.
Hae-in, come and eat.
Okay.
Where's your sister?
Beom-ja left for Seoul in the morning to run some errands.
I see.
Gosh, it would've been nice had she eaten with us.
Let's eat.
By the way, where's Soo-cheol?
QUEEN'S BOXING GYM
GEONUMAMA HAS LOGGED IN
Da-hye.
-Da-hye. -Gosh.
Why is he playing this?
I kept my character because of all the items.
-Jeez. -Let me just say one thing.
Forget it. You'll just swear at me.
GEONUPAPA SENT A MESSAGE
What is this?
This is Geon-u's vaccination record in English and Korean.
He needs his second round of MMR vaccine and chicken pox vaccine.
Make sure he gets them wherever you are.
Make sure you sing "Baby Shark" when he gets them.
Baby shark, doo doo doo doo doo doo
Baby shark
Mommy Shark, doo doo doo doo doo doo
All done.
-Thank you. -Gosh.
Gosh, Geon-u.
Did it hurt?
Well done.
He didn't even cry.
Come on.
GEONUMAMA HAS LOGGED OUT
Going somewhere?
-Seoul. -All of a sudden?
Look.
Even Beom-ja left for Seoul. Why are you all going there?
Do you want the reporters to see you? We're in hiding, you know?
There's something I must do.
I heard Eun-sung visited.
What kind of plans are you having Soo-cheol keep secret?
Are you going to meet him today too?
For what? Are you going to beg him to spare at least you?
Of course, I should.
Should we all go down together?
What? I can't believe you.
Don't tell me you'll work for him.
That was my spot from the get-go.
Don't tell me you two colluded so you could kick your family out
and take over the company all by yourself.
Think however you want.
Hey!
Sweetie, are you going to Seoul?
Yes.
You won't get any taxis here.
I'll drive you. Hop on.
Hold tight.
Mother.
Yes?
Thank you for everything.
Are you going somewhere far away? That's odd for you to say.
The wind must be strong.
My eyes are getting watery.
Of course. I know this is forbidden.
But we've never kept any secrets from each other.
Remember when your youngest son fled to Sokcho because he couldn't forget
his first love and I went there to get him?
We can laugh about it now.
He was in so much pain.
Las Vegas, was it?
He went there to do drugs--
Exactly.
So will you tell me?
Of course. No one will know that you told me.
Who?
I see. Chairman Hong Man-dae from Queens?
So that's where he is.
Does Mr. Baek know that Ms. Hong is here?
I don't think so.
Right, she left him.
-Where are you rushing to? -As you know, it's an emergency.
What's going on?
You haven't heard.
Let's keep it that way.
Welcome back.
I didn't return because of your threats.
I know you won't return what was ours.
So if I can't get it back,
I guess I'll have to share.
So keep your word.
The press conference will begin soon.
Like we mentioned before, we won't answer any questions.
PRESS CONFERENCE FOR THE INAUGURATION OF YOON EUN-SUNG AT QUEENS GROUP
Hae-in.
How did you know?
Why are you here?
I told you.
I'll find my own solutions.
And this…
-is your solution? -Yes.
I like things to be certain and quick.
Let's go. It's almost time.
-Are you sure this is it? -I'm telling you.
I double-checked. I'm positive.
MS. MOH SEUL-HEE
-Hello, ma'am. -Have you found him yet?
No, ma'am. I searched all throughout Seoul.
Maybe he's in a rural area.
Of course.
I'll call you as soon as I find him.
Did you see that? I turned my back on her.
Yes, his condition is the same.
Yes.
The major economic newspapers, dailies,
live media, and ones overseas have made additional requests,
so we're getting them in order.
The PR Team has already handed out a guide.
You can follow this guide, and we'll release it
without an embargo.
We'll have a teleprompter, so you can relax and read the words.
What about your wedding announcement?
Don't include that.
I'll announce it at the end.
Yes, sir.
Is that okay?
Hello, I'm Yoon Eun-sung.
Pione Investment has become Queens' second biggest shareholder.
And I became the new chairman of Queens Group
after holding an extraordinary general meeting.
This decision was inevitable since the former chairman fell ill,
and we had to stop the fall of our stocks.
In addition, I've had a lot of experience in saving companies
from crises and restabilizing them.
Despite everything, however,
I was tormented by groundless assumptions
and fake accusations
about how I betrayed the former chairman,
kicked out his family,
stole from them, confined them, and stowed them away in Southeast Asia.
One thing for sure is
this was exactly what the former chairman wanted.
To prove this and clear up the misunderstandings,
I'd like to make a big announcement today.
I will reappoint Ms. Hong Hae-in, my longtime friend
and talented businesswoman, as the CEO of Queens Department Store.
During the past three years, the store made
all-time record profits under her management.
That just shows how competent she is.
Now, let's hear from her.
Hello, I'm Hong Hae-in.
Like Chairman Yoon just said,
he and I have been friends since university.
And Mr. Yoon…
MR. YOON AND I WILL DO OUR BEST TO TAKE A NEW LEAP FORWARD
He…
threatened me.
He threatened to falsely charge and put Mr. Baek Hyun-woo,
my husband and former legal director, behind bars.
I have a recording as proof.
Wait, Hae-in.
Furthermore, I can't return to my position
as the CEO of my department store.
Because…
I was told…
that I have little time left to live.
Drink up! Bottoms up!
FOUR YEARS AGO
Bottoms up!
Nice!
Why is our intern, Hae-in, not drinking?
Drink up!
I already told you that I wasn't drinking.
Is that so? Then let's do a love shot.
Come on.
Okay. Drink up.
-Love shot. -Okay. Drink up.
-Love shot. -Who's that?
What are you doing?
I'm drinking instead of her.
What are you doing?
What is this?
Why don't you do the love shot with me?
Ms. Hong, why are you so upset?
Did I make you uncomfortable back there?
Yes, extremely.
I was just--
You were just too cute.
-What? -You're too adorable when you're drunk.
But you still got drunk and acted cute
in front of other women.
How dare you?
It won't happen again.
Don't forget.
You make people's hearts race
when you're drunk.
That's your special move.
So don't do it in front of others.
Okay.
I won't do it.
That's what she said.
LAST NIGHT
Hae-in said I made her heart race
when I got drunk.
Let's go home.
You're drunk.
Do you think she still feels the same way?
Will her heart still race even now if I got drunk
and acted cute?
She wouldn't have divorced you then.
Why does my heart race when I look at her?
-It does? -Yes, it does.
I get butterflies, and I'm happy when I look at her.
I miss her when she's gone.
And when I look at her,
I'm terrified
that I won't ever see her again.
Goodness.
But she doesn't want me…
to do anything
for her anymore.
I make her uncomfortable.
She must not like you anymore.
But she put this bandage on me
and even applied ointment for me.
Really? Then does she still like you?
It's confusing.
Just ask her.
She likes me.
She likes me not.
She likes me.
She likes me not.
She likes me.
She likes me not.
She likes me.
She likes me not.
She likes me.
She likes me not.
She likes me.
She likes me not.
She likes me.
She likes me not.
She likes me.
She likes me not.
She likes me?
Really?
Gosh.
But that's not the case for me.
I…
love her.
I love you, Hae-in.
QUEEN OF TEARS
I'll give you anything you want…
I'll be with her.
I'm happy as long as you dry my hair with the broken hair dryer.
Please teach me how to box.
-Berries? -Shall we meet tonight?
At night?
He's looking for the chairman's secret fund.
I'm going to find it first.
Get rid
of Baek Hyun-woo.
I can't die yet.
I haven't told you yet.
I love you.
