JI-WON
Kill me.
Was I destined to die in Park Min-hwan's hands?
Ji-won.
Ji-won!
Wait. Hold on...
Tell me again.
I won't answer Lee Jae-won's calls.
If he comes to the house, I won't open the door,
and call you right away.
Mr. Lee.
Thank you for driving me to the hospital every time like this
and giving me divorce advice, but--
You don't have to thank me for that.
It's work for me.
I get paid a lot of money from U&K.
I do what my employer wants.
Okay.
But you said you cared about me.
You just have to say your piece.
Just a moment.
GENERAL MANAGER YU JI-HYUK
Hey, what is it at this hour?
I'm at the police station.
The police station?
I'll be right there.
No, go to the hospital instead.
YUIL MEDICAL CENTER
EPISODE 15
Excuse me.
Kang Ji-won, 32, transferred from U&K in Gangnam. Where is she?
Ji-won.
Her breathing and pulse are stable now.
But she has a fever, so we'll check her once she wakes up.
It was an assault, so she came with the police. I'll get you her record.
Hey.
I'm going to ruin your life,
so brace yourself.
I'll tell the media a third-generation tycoon assaulted me.
You can't cover things up these days.
I have nothing to lose now.
Thanks to you.
But isn't Ji-won too inferior to ruin your life over?
She's nothing but skin and bones.
Mr. Yu.
Do you want some advice?
Don't trust her.
Do you know why I went mad?
Ji-won makes people lose their minds.
Ji-won and I aren't the ones that ruined you.
It's your trashy personality.
Look how you beat me. Is your personality any better?
You can't do this because you fight better.
That's a bit rich, considering what you did to a woman half your size.
What?
You seek equality when at a disadvantage,
and strength when at an advantage.
I hate using my strength.
But not to you.
Mr. Yu, you can come out.
Let's go.
What about me?
Why can't I come out?
What about me?
Do you really think you can't go any lower?
You're wrong.
No, wait. Is it because he's rich?
I work at U&K too!
What about me?
One law for the rich and another for the poor!
Min-hwan is fired as of today
for assaulting a colleague and violating the rules.
Find anything else.
I checked during his affair incident.
AWOL and unclear corporate card statements.
And he illegally treated clients.
Good. Doesn't he have a company loan?
I'll ask the bank for a repayment request.
I'll add assault, injury, and anything else.
And Ms. Kang is...
She's at home.
It's what she wanted.
I happened to be with Ms. Yang.
So I left Ms. Kang with her, but she didn't look good.
You said there was a debt that Min-hwan hadn't paid off, right?
Put some pressure on that.
Or buy the bonds.
I'll look into it.
Mr. Yu.
How's Ji-won?
She's not good.
I think she'll be better if she sleeps, so I'll get her some milk.
There's nothing in her house.
Are you okay?
Well, yes.
Thank you. I'll take it from here. You should go home and rest.
Ji-hyuk.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry for everything.
Were you hurt?
What's this?
Hello.
Is that all?
It can't be.
Considering you called because your husband's in my care,
there should be more.
How about going to China for a while?
Oh, my. We would be so thankful if you could do that for us.
It'll be a rough ride on the ship though.
That's nothing at all. We couldn't even get the job done.
If you give us another chance,
I'll hit the accelerator and crush her.
So just let me know.
Yeah, thank you.
Poor people always try to keep a record.
As insurance.
What do you want?
Do you hate that I'm taking care of your father?
Now that crushing Kang Ji-won isn't so simple anymore,
you suddenly say, "Don't do anything."
Then Park Min-hwan suddenly asks me for a divorce,
and my dad won't pick up, so I realize,
"I'll get screwed over."
Judging by the look on your face,
you're nothing special.
Darn it. Why have I been cooped up at home like that?
I ask the questions now.
What can you do for me?
Are the shrimps in Korea poisonous? Why don't they know their place?
Have the bodies of Jeong Man-sik and Bae Hui-suk been found?
I'll check the police report.
Make sure there's no news about it.
Jeong Su-min shouldn't feel threatened now.
Park Min-hwan and Jeong Su-min.
Can we take care of them both at once?
PARK MIN-HWAN
Hello?
I'm at the police station right now.
I'm sorry, but can I ask for a favor?
What? The police station?
SUNGSAM POLICE STATION
We got you out, but it's pretty serious.
We may not be able to cover it.
What? What are you saying?
It wasn't what we agreed on.
If we have to fight U&K head-on, the burden on Ms. Oh will be big.
Hey!
What's with the attitude? Who do you think you are?
You're not the VP of Cloud Air!
Hey.
You're not either.
So don't be rude.
Damn it.
You only know how to fight in the ring. Watch your mouth.
You're just Yu-ra's henchman.
Don't act like you're my boss.
Bastard.
Mister, wait!
Why would you give him a nosebleed?
Is there a reason I can't?
He gave me attitude!
Damn it...
He's just worried about me.
Since your wife came and threatened me today.
It was scary.
What? About what?
She said you asked for a divorce. She won't go down alone.
She won't let you get away alone.
Is she out of her mind? Damn it.
Hold on.
U&K HR DEPARTMENT
Work's calling me. Hang up. I'll call you back later.
Hello?
Mr. Park, I called to say you're fired as of today.
You didn't come to work today,
so the legal team has sent someone to deliver your written dismissal.
Where are you?
Someone from your workplace is here. You're fired?
What on earth have you been doing?
I am calling to inform
your obligation to repay the U&K guaranteed loan is effective as of today.
Damn it!
Why does he keep calling?
SNAKE LOANS
- Sir. - What?
Why won't you pick up?
When the trust is gone,
we get a physical rights waiver signed, you see.
For those who don't pay back money,
which hole should we poke to get it back?
Hole? What hole?
Those damn thugs.
Please.
Su-min.
Crap.
Damn it...
I did stocks.
I earned quite a lot.
Please, Su-min!
Have some money. Please!
I need her certificate...
Please, be there.
It's there!
Her certificate's here!
What's her password?
Su-min, please have some money.
Please!
80,230,537 WON
She has 80 million won?
80,230,537 WON
Why does she have so much?
She stole the money for her dad?
She's really something.
GENERAL MANAGER YU JI-HYUK
Mr. Yu?
YUIL MEDICAL CENTER
Sue me for adultery?
You?
Damn...
I mean...
- Call security. - How could you?
Sir, you can't do this here.
Doctor.
- Doctor. - Are you drunk?
I'm her husband.
But she was hiding here and ignoring my calls.
And she sued me for adultery.
Without evidence.
I have it.
Do you really want to do this here?
At the hospital?
What do you have?
The dashcam recording?
There's no video.
Ju-ran.
Ju-ran!
You can't divorce me with that!
You must have the video. Hard evidence.
- Let's get you outside. - Come on.
Yeon-ji will be fatherless because of you.
Who are you? What's going on? Let go!
Did you even read the divorce papers?
Lee Seok-jun.
I'm Ms. Yang Ju-ran's lawyer.
Lawyer?
I'll apply for a restraining order.
Never come back.
Are you okay?
Yes.
The doctor is good and confident about the surgery,
- so don't worry. - Right.
Is Ji-won okay?
As far as I know, yes.
But you should worry about yourself.
It's been a while.
I was so surprised to get your call.
It's nice to see you after so long.
Can I take your order?
Have you been well?
Yes, I have.
To be honest, I'm not doing that well.
Min-hwan and I are getting a divorce.
I left the house yesterday. I'm staying upstairs.
I'm going to rest for now.
It must be karma.
Blinded by love, I betrayed
my only best friend.
In the end...
Anyway, I'm all alone now.
The divorce makes this easier to say.
Did you try to kill Ji-won?
I would've done the same.
I'm saying I know Ji-won and Min-hwan are
seeing each other again.
Are they really...
seeing each other again?
Let's charge them with adultery.
I'll let you know when and where to go.
If you want, I'll get you the best lawyer too.
You just fulfill your role as his legal spouse.
Why?
Because it's not fair.
Isn't your life ruined because of Min-hwan?
If you divorce, you won't be rewarded for your work at the company.
You'll be left with nothing.
That's true...
for me.
But what do you gain?
I want to get Kang Ji-won back.
I like Ji-won.
So I hate that she's with him.
I'm going to make her come back to me.
So help me.
Can I ask you something?
Why do you hate me?
Because you're selfish.
There are those who gnaw at people around them.
You are that type, so I hate you.
You don't know me that well.
You don't trust anyone, do you?
That's because you're not trustworthy.
You think everyone's like you, so you can't trust anyone.
How can you work with me thinking like that?
Didn't you ask me why I hated you?
I never said I couldn't work with you.
Let me know when you decide.
It went well.
As you said, she asked me why I was helping her.
I didn't think she'd believe me if I lied, so I mixed in some truth.
Except that it'll be Oh Yu-ra and Park Min-hwan instead,
everything I said was true.
Also...
There's an insurance policy provided to company employees.
A family insurance.
It compensates yourself, spouse, and immediate family.
You can decide to keep it when you quit.
SECOND HAND MARKET
A notice will go to Park Min-hwan soon.
I can take care of the more urgent debt if this gets sold.
He doesn't know such insurance existed,
but he will soon.
The stage is being set.
Shall I just die?
Though it's useless if Min-hwan doesn't decide to die.
If I die...
my mom and dad can get my life insurance benefit.
Min-hwan could've stopped several times on his way here,
but he didn't.
He'll go all the way.
Then there's no problem.
Jeong Su-min will go all the way too.
Why is everyone
looking for Kang Ji-won?
I think Jeong Su-min is more obsessed with you right now.
It's that moment now.
All that's left is for her to experience it.
How about returning to Japan?
Yu Ji-hyuk is moving more actively than before.
He's pressuring Park Min-hwan
with his debt and private loans. He won't last long.
And he hasn't given up on Man-sik and Hui-suk.
He got all the CCTV footage from the abandoned factory.
He won't find anything,
but nothing good can come from fighting U&K head-on.
You must not be confident.
Seeing how you're telling me to run away.
It's okay.
His grandfather is different.
Unlike Ji-hyuk, who's like a flower in a green house,
he's realistic.
He knows how much of a nuisance Cinderella can be.
Checkmate.
I can never beat you.
You want everything, so I can read your hand.
A good leader should know how to give up something that's not theirs.
Okay.
Hey!
Hi.
We were just playing janggi.
And I lost again.
But I think I can beat you. Do you want to play?
Grandfather.
You asked me to bring the woman I like.
I will introduce her to you.
So don't let Yu-ra into the house anymore.
You said it was one-sided and weren't going to make it work.
Did you change your mind?
Yes, I'm going to pursue it.
So I can't have my ex-fiancée frequenting my house.
I was so indifferent during our engagement.
I didn't know he was so impatient.
People like us
can't marry for love, can we?
Get permission from your grandfather before you--
I will.
I'll introduce her now.
Hello, I'm Kang Ji-won.
Let's get rid of Kang Ji-won.
You're not going back to Japan?
I can't live with myself if I lose.
Why do I have to feel this way over those cockroaches?
Yeah, I should've done it myself.
It's a headache having others do it.
I've decided to face the obstacles that are bound to happen.
When I met you last time,
there's something I didn't tell you.
Powering through isn't a solution to everything.
I'm aware he gave you a lot for seeing him briefly.
So what are you going to do from now on?
I'll look back and reflect on my faults.
I'll correct what I can.
And the rest...
I guess it is what it is.
It's time for you to step back and say, "It is what it is."
So you knew.
I gave him hell for that.
That won't ever happen again.
He lacks so much.
You spoiled him.
He only knows how to work. He has no concept of money.
Honestly, I was flustered because he was like a rich boy.
What are you trying to say?
But I liked that about him.
To tell you the truth, I lack a lot too.
When I thought he was a perfect third-generation chaebol,
he seemed unreachable.
But he can be foolish, get angry, and messy.
He gets embarrassed, and sometimes...
he acts like a baby. Seeing those sides of him,
I thought we could do well together.
I want to be happy with him.
Sir.
Please, give Yu Ji-hyuk to me.
Park Min-hwan's termination will be finalized by tomorrow.
By the way, why did you ask about the insurance for employees?
They don't usually keep it.
It's just a company perk. Most don't know about it.
Park Min-hwan will do it.
That looks good.
Three.
How's the taste and texture?
As you predicted, the spinach pasta with sea snails was most popular.
It'll be the main product.
That's good.
Sea snails and spinach aren't common ingredients for pasta in Korea...
Oh, right.
Look at the camera.
Okay.
Yes, that's good.
Just be comfortable.
He's going to get a natural look.
YU HUI-YEON
Great job today.
It was nothing. You saved me from being unemployed. I appreciate it.
I'll send you the recipe revisions soon.
- It's hard. - Yeah.
I'll send you the draft and factory schedule too.
Okay.
By the way,
I didn't see Yu Hui-yeon and Yu Ji-hyuk today.
Mr. Yu was there all day.
I haven't seen Hui-yeon either.
Where did she go?
I should get going.
- Goodbye! - Bye!
JEONG SU-MIN
CALL DECLINED
JEONG SU-MIN
CALL DECLINED
Why not pick up my calls?
Why won't you pick up?
Why do I have to pick up your calls?
Yeah, I get it.
You were with him for seven years, but he chose me over you.
I'm sure it was hard to accept.
But still,
how could you seduce a married man? I'm about to get divorced because of you.
Is this security?
This is the 16th floor.
An outsider is here.
Take care of her.
What are you doing?
Do you think I'd let it slide?
Hey.
Why would I sleep with someone else's man? I'm not you.
Right, you seduced Min-hwan this way, so I'm sure you know best.
But if he betrayed his girlfriend of seven years,
why didn't you know he could do the same to you?
I'll put posters up here to make you two too ashamed to work here.
I won't stand for it.
That's too bad.
Your husband was fired.
So stop suspecting me, and go be a good wife. Oh, wait.
You two are divorcing.
That's too bad.
But...
thinking about it is pissing me off.
Only you would covet trash like Min-hwan.
Why would I?
Unless I was a fool.
Let go. I'm going. Let me go!
Min-hwan, Jeong Su-min just came and caused a fuss. It scared me.
But rumors won't spread here since everyone thinks Su-min's crazy.
Oh, no. I sent it to the wrong person. Sorry.
Is she out of her mind?
I won't stand for this.
Jeong Su-min will call me soon.
JEONG SU-MIN
I'm going to ruin Kang Ji-won.
Have her.
In return, she has to hit rock bottom first.
I'll make her beg.
I won't cooperate before that.
We have Su-min in our hands.
I'll try to move Min-hwan.
I think he's gotten it by now.
HAEYEONG VILLA
What would U&K send me?
U&K LIFE INSURANCE POLICY
What the heck?
I was fired. I have no money to pay for this.
SPOUSE'S DEATH AFTER INJURY 500 MILLION WON
You may not have a reason to cover for me,
but we can make a deal.
I'll take care of Su-min so she won't bother you.
Tell them to bring one more meal.
Let's eat first.
So how will you take care of your wife?
I'm broke, so I was going to kill myself.
But there's a way to live.
And I think that might help you too.
SPOUSE'S DEATH AFTER INJURY 500 MILLION WON
You can only get this after death.
If Su-min disappears,
there won't be anyone to threaten you.
It won't be easy. We have to get our story straight.
But can't you help me?
You want me to clean up your mess? Again?
Not just that.
Set it up for me too.
Money and connections are everything, but I don't have any of them.
You've got guts.
If you don't have anything, you should at least have guts.
But isn't that all you have?
You think it was easy to decide?
This is my last resort.
I'll risk my life.
This is your last chance.
Park Min-hwan is at Oh Yu-ra's suite right now.
So it's today.
JEONG SU-MIN
Park Min-hwan and Kang Ji-won are in room 1355 at Winton Hotel.
Room 1355.
Move.
But I think you're really smart, babe.
But that is pretty genius.
Going after your wife's life insurance benefit?
How did you think of cancer insurance?
Once I get paid, I'll treat you to something nice.
Don't worry.
I know how to return the favor properly.
Oh, my God!
Damn...
Whoever it is, this is ridiculous.
Hey, Min-hwan.
You're a piece of trash that can't be handled.
What are you going to do about it?
Right?
I'm going to send the voice recording to the police.
Where's my dad? Did you kill him?
Kill him?
I thought you were trying to get Ji-won back.
What are you doing here with her?
I heard you were fired.
Since you have a lot of free time, spend it in jail.
Are you insane?
Get lost!
Let go of me!
Let go!
Damn it...
What do I do now?
What do you mean?
We'll go forward with your plan.
But not here.
I'll set it up for you.
Ms. Oh.
If Park Min-hwan kills Jeong Su-min,
set it up as murder for the insurance claim
and distribute it to the media.
I'll get it ready, but...
Make sure whatever he says about me is nonsense.
Get rid of all the evidence, got it?
What do you think you're doing?
So why did you do something like that?
You're great, but you don't know your place.
I have money. I'll give it all to you.
If you kill me,
do you think she'll leave you alone?
Su-min.
I'll give it to you.
You really have hard evidence on Oh Yu-ra.
But too bad for you.
She erased it when you passed out.
What?
You dummy.
People like us shouldn't
go against people with power.
What can we do?
And...
you have no money.
0 WON
What's that?
It wasn't your money anyway!
You stole it when you had the chance.
Oh, right.
You had the bag I bought for Ji-won.
I sold that.
To take care of urgent matters for me.
Don't be too upset.
You said you wouldn't go down alone.
One of us has to die.
So...
I have to take care of you to start over.
Just wait.
Hey! Let me go!
Let me go!
Let me...
Let me go!
Hey!
The gas...
Where did she go?
Hey!
Are you crazy?
Leave the car key and move aside.
Okay. Just calm down.
Put the knife down! Calm down!
I won't die.
I'll never die!
Here.
Here's the key.
Here it is. Put the knife down.
Just take it!
Take it. Here.
You little...
Come here.
Come here!
Damn it...
My lovely wife's going to
die from carbon monoxide poisoning
from a boiler malfunction while I'm away to get groceries.
So stop ruining my life.
Just die already.
Hey! If you're going to die, just die already.
This is what the insurance was about?
You think it'll go your way?
I think it will.
Damn it!
My husband shouldn't lose his manhood.
Damn it...
You little...
No.
Kang Ji-won told me
that you were sterile.
What are you talking about?
You're shooting blanks!
Want me to spell it out?
I didn't miscarry.
I was never pregnant.
Do you get it now?
I don't think so.
- You little... - Let go, you bastard!
- Come here! - Let go!
Let go of me!
- Get lost! - Get lost!
I think Ms. Yang's divorce suit will get easier.
The evidence of the affair on the SD card, I don't know why, but it's been restored.
- Suddenly? - Yes.
The video didn't work for no reason.
It suddenly worked for no reason too.
I guess they're just meant to get a divorce.
THE LATE PARK MIN-HWAN'S FUNERAL YUIL MEDICAL CENTER FUNERAL HALL
I checked the police report.
He fell over a glass table and died after hitting his head.
With the evidence, the police are looking for Jeong Su-min as the prime suspect.
But the security cameras didn't work,
so they must find out what happened.
Are you going...
to the funeral?
I thought about how nice it would be if you died.
I thought I'd burst of anger then.
Back when those disappointing times
were confirmed with despair and betrayal.
You look so beautiful today.
This little...
Get lost!
Just die.
I spent all night wondering why you were like that to me.
But it ended like this.
How dare you come here?
If you didn't betray Min-hwan,
he never would've married Su-min.
She killed my son.
That wench.
How could this...
She ruined my precious son's life!
My poor boy!
At a pension in Gyeonggi Province on the 24th,
Park, a man in his thirties, was found dead.
The police confirmed his wife, Jeong, is the prime suspect.
Isn't this Jeong Su-min from marketing?
Don't you remember?
No, they just look alike.
Are you saying Min-hwan's dead?
What? Keep it down.
I hear it's him.
Hey...
What's this?
Park Min-hwan's parents reported a theft. A thief came in while they were away.
It was Jeong Su-min.
That means she's in Seoul.
It's been a day since the police put out an APB
on Jeong Su-min, the prime suspect,
but her exact whereabouts are still unknown.
- The police - It's fine.
assume she's off the grid and on the run
and ask for the citizens' active cooperation for the case.
The suspect is 160 cm tall with a lean physique
and under suspicion of killing her husband at a pension.
But I feel uneasy.
You're too nice, so you wouldn't know.
Some people don't know when to stop.
Unless you stomp on them completely,
they don't stop.
You can't be the only one who's happy, Ji-won.
Never.
What did I do?
- Do you have proof? - Pay for what you did.
I will stay strong.
I'll try a little harder too.
She bought thinner. That means she'll set a fire.
What's the use of stopping her from coming?
We did what you wanted. Let me do what I want this time.
We can't do anything about it now.
You always think only about yourself.
I learned so many things because of you.
I'm going to kill you!
This is the price for your sins and hell I made for you.
Take it.
