Love in Contract (2022) s01e11 Episode Script

1
THIS IS A WORK OF FICTION.
ALL CHARACTERS, COMPANIES, ORGANIZATIONS,
LOCALES, PRODUCTS, AND EVENTS
ARE USED IN A FICTITIOUS MANNER.
ALL SCENES WITH ANIMALS
WERE FILMED SAFELY UNDER EXPERT GUIDANCE.
My first impression of her,
in short, couldn't have been worse.
She was just what you'd expect
from INA Group's daughter.
The perfect bride for Kangjin.
I'm Yu Mi-ho,
Chief of Management Support at INA Group.
The lady is here.
However, that same woman
completely ruined the meeting
between the two chaebols.
She literally blew it up.
Who knew I'd see my brother
humiliated like that?
When I heard
that she'd cut ties with her family
and vanished into thin air…
I left home too.
And then one day…
she showed up out of the blue.
I think I'm doing my part.
Checkmate.
Why does she have to be
so unnecessarily beautiful?
I'm feeling uneasy.
Gotta hand it to you.
But that didn't last long.
I actually thought he liked me.
In a very eccentric way, that is.
I feel comfortable around you.
It's totally the opposite
on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.
I can't even digest anything I eat.
How many times
can he surprise me in one day?
It was my mistake. I'm sorry.
I'm going to start dating Mr. Jung.
So it's not me.
You crossed the line.
So what is it that you wanted to say?
It's time I gave up.
KANG HAE-JIN'S FIANCÉE REVEALED!
KOREA IN UPROAR
What the hell?
But a mysterious force
keeps pushing me towards her.
"Fiancée revealed!"
"A beautiful non-celebrity girlfriend…"
WHY DID KANG HAE-JIN
REVEAL HIS BRIDE TO THE PUBLIC?
Crap.
Maybe I'm the one…
who's supposed to be with her.
I…
I'm on my way to see Mr. Kang right now.
I'm going to terminate the contract.
But right now,
I just want to make you happy.
And for some odd reason,
I'm perfectly fine with this.
So I want to focus on you
with all my heart.
Can we talk?
Without getting emotional?
Judge Jung, should I turn in
the reference materials?
No, I'll do it.
I have to go out anyway.
Sure.
Why are you here?
It's not like that.
What's not?
We'll see you later, Ms. Jung.
You hung in there well.
-Are you okay?
-Yes.
-I'll see you again.
-Bye.
Goodbye.
I'm a lawyer, and this is the courthouse.
Though I was hoping to see you, yes.
Her ex-husband
is refusing to pay child support.
The bastard's saying
their adopted daughter isn't his own.
I thought you were a partner
at an entertainment agency.
That's just what feeds me.
I do some work pro bono,
mostly for adoptees.
I'm sorry I texted you.
It was pretty easy to get your number.
Let me take this chance
to make something clear.
We won't be talking again.
I'd like to ask you something.
How have you been?
I'm genuinely curious.
It's been pretty crappy for me.
PROSECUTION SERVICE
Prosecutor Jung!
Assemblyman, you said you'd call me.
Are you free for dinner?
Of course. After you.
I hear the opposition nominated her
as their spokesperson.
She has a thing going
with one of the higher-ups.
She'll do anything for power.
She's really something.
WELCOME TO ROYAL VILLAGE
RESIDENT AGREEMEN
Isn't this your wife?
Where are you?
Today's a Wednesday.
Sorry, the meeting is taking
a lot longer than I thought.
Bye.
Where were we?
You being our spokesperson.
We're all set now.
I always blamed you.
I told you this was silk.
I said I'll just order in.
Hello?
Yes. I'm on my way.
I said I'd grab something on the way.
You should still eat something.
You hardly ever eat properly.
I'm running late. I'll eat when I'm back.
I'm sure you saw my downfall on the news.
I had it coming.
Why are you saying this now?
It's pointless.
How is it pointless?
How can I just ignore it?
When you're broken because of me.
A contract marriage?
Let's start anew.
I'm not broken.
And contract or no contract, this is real.
Ms. Choi and I agreed
to make it exclusive.
Hello?
The face of Kang Hae-jin's fiancée?
Oh, Ms. Choi. What about the shrimp?
Right, the shrimp.
I forgot about them. I'm so sorry.
Was this also taken under mutual consent?
Wow, how can they be so cool about this?
-Ms. Choi.
-I…
Let me take you home.
Jung-han, the car keys.
What are you thinking?
Can you clear the area for us?
What are you going to do?
-Excuse me, coming through!
-Excuse me!
Step back, please!
Please step back!
Hae-jin, call me!
Call me, okay?
Hello, Mr. Jung.
Ms. Choi,
I saw your face was made public.
I was wondering if you were okay.
I'm a bit shaken up, but I'm okay.
That's good.
Ms. Choi.
I'm…
not bothered by this.
Okay.
I won't be bothered either.
I'll trust you, and I'll wait for you.
Okay.
You're back.
Go on in.
What the--
What's this all about?
Let's get you transferred.
Pardon?
The collegiate division
could use a leader.
Your records are stellar,
and so is your reputation.
Plus, you have a very motivated team.
You've always wanted to
do something important.
Everyone here knows how competent you are.
So keep up the good reputation
that you've got going.
Yes.
My goodness.
Who knew I'd find myself
saying that to you?
You should thank your wife.
She was the one who killed the suspicions
that you may be a sociopath.
Are you pleased?
Yes, well…
Well, do you have a drink
or a snack for me?
Well, nothing at the moment.
Get yourself a drink if you're thirsty.
You're such a Scrooge.
I hope you die rich.
Why are we getting off here?
We're pretty much at your place.
Do you want to go for a walk?
Okay.
It's not like I had other intentions.
I had a good reason for what I did, but…
JUNG-HAN
MR. CHOI
MOM
My family is panicking.
I'm very sorry…
about what happened.
I mean it.
It's fine.
But please fix this.
Hey.
Well…
I'm kind of sad to think that this is it.
So all that bound us was the contract.
I thought we had something.
Even if you weren't my first love,
there were things
only you could understand,
and only I could understand.
I thought we had something like that.
So I thought I'd just have to
go for you directly.
Hey, Jung-han.
Can you handle the calls from my family…
Hae-jin, your mother is in the office!
Hey, your mother is drunk
and out of control!
She says she'll kill herself!
I'm going to get kicked out.
The chairman said I raised a crappy son.
He said, "How could he not introduce
his fiancée to his own family?"
He said I was a failure.
Even that punk, Sun-jin,
was sneering at my face.
You ungrateful little punk.
I'm going to die.
-I'm going to end it all!
-Stop it!
-Let me just die!
-Hey, Hae-jin.
Why not just bring her home sometime?
Drag her here for all I care.
Think of your mother!
I don't care.
I'm not forcing her to meet them.
What's going on at home?
My mom is drunk.
She's been off the booze
for ten years after rehab.
Let me take you home first.
You should go.
Hello.
Mr. Kang Hae-jin?
Yes, well…
I'm a friend of Ms. Choi's.
Goodbye.
-Excuse me.
-Why don't you join us for dinner?
Just go.
Do join us. I'm a big fan.
Right.
I'm Sang-eun's aunt.
This is the first time
she brought a friend home.
I hope you don't mind.
Not at all, thank you.
Are you done?
I haven't even picked up my chopsticks.
Thank you for the meal.
Are you not going to join me? You should.
Master Kang Yu-jin?
It's been a while.
So you knew.
I just wanted to ask you one thing.
I knew when I saw your eyes.
You have feelings
for Ms. Jamie, don't you?
So why did you say
you'll meet Sunghan's daughter?
I guess you didn't know
that Jamie is seeing someone.
Is she?
As a matter of fact…
the only thing I never taught Ms. Jamie
was how to love.
Obviously,
she doesn't have a great eye for men.
I guess I'll have to agree.
I think you'd be
the perfect match for her.
Are you not confident enough?
Confident?
That's not what this is about.
Love can be earned or won.
What's more, Ms. Jamie doesn't know
what happiness is. Poor thing.
I can promise you this.
As long as you don't intervene,
I will have Ms. Jamie…
stand next to you at the altar.
I wondered what your role was
in Ms. Choi's life.
You were the villain.
I don't know what you're planning,
but I sure as hell don't like it.
And…
I can take care of myself.
Looks like you're done. Let's go.
Let's go.
Okay.
How come there isn't
one good person around you?
Of all the things
that frustrate me about you,
that ticks me off the most.
But then again,
you're pushing me out of your life.
That says enough about you.
If it turns out
that I was wrong about Mr. Jung,
I'll come to you to complain.
But I'll get to know him first.
FATHER
I'm in a world of trouble.
You should go in.
What exactly is the problem?
Well, that's…
The entire world has seen
their son's fiancée,
yet he won't bring her home.
So they want to see me no matter what?
I can't ask you to do that.
Bye.
I'll meet the people from Kangjin.
-What?
-Why avoid it?
I know exactly what to do.
I'll come with you
and give them a polite briefing
about our thoughts on marriage.
It'll be the last thing I do on this job.
Jeez, you scared me.
Do you want some cheese or something?
How come you never have any laundry?
I don't wear anything
that you can throw into the machine.
Right.
Of course.
So normal.
Why don't you join me?
No, thank you.
This is a million-won wine.
Wow, the fragrance…
You're cuter than I thought.
You've grown on me.
Actually, I get that a lot.
People say I'm cute.
-Should I go prepare some snacks…
-Break up…
with Ms. Jamie.
What I'm saying is, quit living with her.
As a fake husband or a friend.
-Pardon?
-She deserves so much more than this.
I should step up
since tidying up isn't her expertise.
Are you saying
this is part of cleaning up?
Ms. Jamie is softer
than she appears to be.
What I'm saying is,
you should leave her.
You're being ridiculous, lady.
Did you all see the news?
You know, about Kang Hae-jin's fiancée.
Isn't she so pretty?
But she looks awfully familiar.
Take a look at this.
Doesn't she remind you of someone?
What rumors are you trying to brew up now?
It's a blurry photo.
Oh.
But you're right.
She is a beauty, yes.
No, I'm serious.
I feel like I've seen her somewhere.
Come on.
Judge Jung, congratulations
on your promotion.
It's not set in stone yet.
Come on, it's already been decided
since it came straight
from the chief judge himself.
So what did your wife say?
Judge Jung's wife.
Right?
You know, Kang Hae-jin's fiancée.
It's Judge Jung's wife.
Wow.
You've finally lost it.
Are you that stressed
about the workload next year?
You've been reading too many web novels.
But I'm serious.
I'm very observant.
If only it was less blurry.
Most photos have been
taken down or blurred out.
Since Ms. Choi is not a public figure,
we can pressure the media
with threats of lawsuits
for violation of portrait rights.
But we can't do anything about
the files that have been saved.
We've got 100% of our manpower
preventing the sharing
and downloading of such photos.
That's all from me.
Good work.
Oh, my head.
Do you need painkillers, sir?
No, we have some. Just leave it.
Ms. Jung?
May I have a word?
Thank you for your swift response.
I hope to see more of that.
I still have to do my job.
-"Still"?
-I want you to get married ASAP.
It would make my job
and my personal life easier.
Are you saying you want this
to get out of hand?
I can't trust a lawyer like you.
Don't worry.
I always put my ambitions first
before my desires.
Will you overlook the contract
between Ms. Choi and me?
It's my duty as your legal advisor.
I met my ex-husband.
I wanted to get back together with him.
What kind of a man is he, anyway?
That's what I'd like to ask you.
How did both of you
end up hiring Ms. Choi?
I also found out by chance
that they weren't a real couple.
It had been going on for five years.
Every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
From what I heard,
he was the one who approached her.
And he never failed to pay her on time.
As for me, I begged her to take me
when she was thinking of retiring.
Ms. Choi is more considerate
than you'd think.
In fact, I'm the one to blame
for all this mess.
I see.
I paid him alimony.
He must have been humiliated.
He must have wanted to blow it all
on something stupid.
I'm sorry?
After we drifted apart,
he asked that we have dinner together
on certain days of the week.
Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
Who knew he'd get back at me like this?
I'll be going.
Don't try to do anything.
That woman was like
a ray of sunshine to me.
She could've lived
a better life than anyone.
Whatever choice she makes,
I don't want to see her in pain.
So don't shake her up.
Just let her be.
You're like her Daddy-Long-Legs.
But if you like her so much,
shouldn't you be rooting for me?
Hey, aren't you introducing
your girlfriend to your family today?
-Are you going to marry her?
-No, the exact opposite.
What are you on about now?
Yes?
About Ms. Choi's profession.
Please pretend you never heard.
Especially in front of Ms. Choi.
All right.
Go. I have nothing
against my wife's profession,
so you
do your best at yours.
What's so special about this woman?
Now that we know
she's the daughter of INA Group,
this marriage has to happen.
For me,
and for Yu-jin.
And screw over that bastard, Kang Sun-jin.
Oh, hi.
To what do I owe the pleasure, Ms. Jung?
Are you meeting
the daughter of INA Group tonight?
Yes.
How did you know?
She'll say she has no plan
of getting married.
As will your son.
Excuse me?
I thought you might like to be prepared.
It looked to me like Mr. Kang
was very worried about you.
Do you have no sense of guilt?
I'm not sure I follow.
I know you asked for her service
to deplete your alimony.
Don't you think it's shameless
to feel anything for her
after using her like that?
I suggest you tread lightly.
I'm stopping here.
I'm letting her go, so you…
stop here too.
Ms. Choi needs to meet
someone who's worthy.
If she gets hurt again…
she'll be broken.
What do you know about Ms. Choi?
More than you.
Including how she deserves far more
than the likes of you.
You know nothing.
Thank you for coming.
Please have a seat.
Father, this is…
You didn't listen
when I told you to bring her home.
We're the last ones
in this country to see her.
Well, Father…
I guess we were being overly cautious,
knowing how important
this meeting would be.
We do apologize.
Gosh, you're so polite.
I hear you now go by
Choi Sang-eun now, not Jamie.
-Father.
-How can I not judge
a woman who's changed her name
and cut ties with her family?
Goodness, dear.
Like that changes anything.
Even if they don't get along,
they're still family.
She's still INA Group's…
I simply thought it was
more appropriate for a life in Korea.
Sorry I'm late
to such an important dinner.
Wow, you haven't changed one bit.
Don't leave any sauce around me.
I don’t want to be covered in it.
You came late. Be quiet.
So…
how are the wedding preparations
coming along?
Should I step in to help?
Fix a date right away.
You should be looking to
settle down at your age.
Man, this won't be easy.
Especially with your previous record
of ruining marriage talks.
Are you finally reflecting on
what happened 13 years ago?
That's quite all right,
I've forgotten all about it.
You tell me.
Do you plan to get married or not?
Well, we…
We don't plan to.
Hae-jin is extremely against
the idea of marriage.
Just talking about it
gives him panic attacks.
For your son's sake,
please stop this.
I ask you earnestly.
Hae-jin.
You can't do this.
You can't do this to me.
Ma'am.
I have quite a history of divorces.
Would you be all right with that?
Divorces?
Just how many times?
Have you been divorced twice?
Let me just say
that it's a double-digit figure.
Ms. Choi.
About earlier.
Mr. Kang.
We should only be as committed
as we can be responsible.
Today is our last day, isn't it?
Let's say goodbye with a smile.
Who says I can't be responsible?
In fact, I'm dying to.
But fine.
I won't ask you to come to me.
But does it really have to be Jung Ji-ho?
You're smart, Ms. Choi.
Live freely like you always wanted.
Don't be tied down by anyone.
What do you know about Ms. Choi?
More than you.
Including that she deserves far more
than the likes of you.
You know nothing.
WHAT I KNOW ABOUT HER
SHE LIKES SALMON
SHE'S PUNCTUAL
THERE'S NOTHING SHE CAN'T DO
WHAT I'D LIKE TO KNOW ABOUT HER
1. WHERE SHE WAS BORN
2. ABOUT HER FAMILY
3. ABOUT HER CLOSE FRIENDS
FAVORITE SONG TO SING
WHETHER SHE'S A SPONTANEOUS TRAVELER
FAVORITE HOLIDAY DESTINATION
THE MOUNTAINS OR THE SEA
WHERE SHE'D LIKE TO GO ON OUR ANNIVERSARY
WHETHER SHE'S ON SOCIAL MEDIA
496. HER FAVORITE TIME OF THE DAY
Why aren't you in your room?
Aren't you afraid to be out in public?
What are you talking about?
I'm being super careful here.
What do you want to say?
I'm not saying.
This is going to take a long time.
I've had the most exhausting day, okay?
Make it quick.
Well?
It's about Madam Yu.
-I'm so flabbergasted.
-Oh, sorry.
Give me one second.
-Hello, Mr. Jung.
-I'd like to see you now.
-Pardon?
-Oh.
Were you getting ready for bed?
No, I wasn't. I just got home.
Then I'll come to pick you up.
Please don't bother.
I can get there on my own.
All right.
So why are you here again?
Seriously, it's always men
before friendship.
-Anyway, guess what Madam Yu--
-Hold that thought.
I'll hear you out in just an hour, okay?
I'm really sorry.
First of all, I'm sorry for making you
come all this way.
Were you curious about how today went?
Well, I wrote down some questions.
About the things I don't know about you.
There were a lot more than I thought.
I was surprised.
But why, all of a sudden?
I wanted to know for sure.
About you, Ms. Choi.
Ms. Choi, I think I made a mistake.
Can I see you for…
I didn't make a mistake.
I said all the right things.
I should expose that guy and…
What was that noise?
Hey, you!
Damn it, where did he go?
Oh, my camera.
It's fine.
What are you looking at?
Stay still.
463. DOES SHE LIKE VARIETY SHOWS?
464. SHE WATCHES THE NEWS?
485. HER MBTI PERSONALITY TYPE
444. IF NOT A SINGLE-LIFE HELPER,
WHAT WOULD SHE BE?
What is it? Just pick one.
This is going to take a while.
No matter how much I think about this,
I think there's just one question
I should be asking.
And what is that?
Can we call today our Day One?
I think that's the only thing
I have to make sure.
You seem flustered.
I'm sorry.
I should've taken this more slowly.
Today's our 13th day together.
Pardon?
Ever since that night, in the car…
That's when I started counting.
So you weren't sure.
In that case, it's actually the 14th day.
That night, I went to Incheon to find you.
Why don't we count it from then?
As it should've been.
Are you laughing at me?
Why don't we have a drink?
My legal team is about to get busy again.
How cute.
So how did the meet-the-parents go?
Oh, the meet-the-parents?
Well, let's just say I really showed them
what kind of bride I was.
Maybe that's why I'm so tired.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I called you pretty late, didn't I?
My bad.
Something you want to say?
You should sleep at your place.
Right?
Right, I should sleep at my place.
Isn't it obvious?
You see, I'm a morning person, so…
it's past my bedtime already.
Yes, so am I.
I mean, I go to bed in the morning.
But I should get going.
No, wait.
Can we talk for a bit longer?
But you should sleep at home.
Talk?
Yes. After you answer
these questions here.
And then,
you can go home to sleep.
Oh, I see.
Is this an interrogation then?
No, that's not what this is.
I just want to get to know you better.
Okay.
What's that?
I eat these instead of coffee
when I'm working late.
It picks me right up.
It sure does.
Shall we get started?
Are you planning to go through all of it?
There aren't that many.
I only have 496 in total.
Are you that curious about me?
What happened? Assault?
It's not what you think it is.
I just caught a stalker.
So why are you in handcuffs?
He hasn't been convicted yet,
but I was caught red-handed.
-Are you drunk?
-No.
I'm Mr. Kang's lawyer.
He won't flee or assault the victim.
How about you uncuff him?
What's this about a stalker?
Someone was stalking you?
That's what I thought, but no.
He was taking photos
of Ms. Choi with Mr. Jung.
I'm not a stalker.
I was taking pictures of my wife!
Wait.
Let me skip three questions
I don't want to answer.
You have things you don't want to tell me?
No, it's just a habit of mine.
Call it a safety net.
Oh.
Go on.
Where's your hometown?
Gangwon-do.
It's a small rural town in Taebaek.
What about your family?
I have none.
I'm an orphan, remember?
My village was flooded when I was little.
That's when everyone in my family died.
After that, I was at an orphanage
for about two months.
Some pretty woman came to see me,
saying she'd adopt me.
Turns out this woman
was the real power of a conglomerate,
and she became my nanny.
She's the woman who raised me.
And I'm the biggest failure in her life.
Yu Mi-ho from INA Group.
That's right.
Gosh, did I say too much?
But I thought you'd be as curious about me
as I am about you.
But you know what?
-I'm not going to ask you anything.
-Why not?
I'll just take it slowly.
Very slowly.
I'm hoping that we'll spend
a long time together.
That we'll have so much time
that we don’t have to try
so hard to get to know each other.
That we'll have plenty of time
to learn one thing at a time.
Well?
Wouldn't you say
I'm more mature than you, Judge Jung?
Give me that.
Let's forget about this.
This is all meaningless now.
No, give it.
I'll dispose of this right now.
I'll answer one question a day.
-It's lost its meaning.
-No, give it.
GWANG-NAM
What is it?
Do you know what time it is?
Did you call me to ask what time it was?
-You said you'd be back in an hour!
-Hey, do you even know…
There's someone I need to talk shit about
-right freaking now!
-I'm hanging up.
He's useless.
Mr. Jung.
Are you sleeping?
No way.
Seriously?
Is he really asleep?
That's so him, though.
He really must be a morning person.
He's sound asleep.
I'm jealous.
I should tell Gwang-nam to get some beer.
Hello?
Man, something is
definitely wrong with that guy.
He took hundreds of pictures
of the same woman.
Oh, there she is.
Ms. Choi.
-Mr. Kang.
-Why are you…
I said I'll handle this quietly.
Did you call her?
How can I not inform the victim herself?
Are you Ms. Choi? Come this way.
Yes.
Is this you earlier this evening?
Mr. Kang Hae-jin spotted him by chance
and helped arrest him.
She doesn't have to know that.
It was a fierce battle, by the way.
Are you okay, Mr. Kang?
Well, I did injure myself a bit.
The perpetrator…
has been claiming he knows you very well.
May we ask you to confirm?
I'm telling you, it's all nonsense.
Ms. Choi, I'll sort it out.
Ms. Choi?
Hold on.
Thank you so much for today.
There was a reason
your mother wanted me at her funeral.
Mr. Lee?
You're Lee Seon-ho, aren't you?
Why are you here?
Were you the one
who took all those photos?
No, it's not what you think.
You have to tell us the truth.
I'm not a stalker.
We used to be married.
You tell them, Ms. Choi.
Am I not even allowed to take
photos of my ex-wife?
I…
Ms. Choi, you said I was a good person.
Didn't you?
We got divorced eight years ago.
Ever since then, we've had no contact.
The only time I recently saw him
was at his mother's funeral.
Were you aware
you were being photographed?
-No.
-This is a separate charge.
We'll investigate this as a stalking case.
Why are you doing this?
This isn't like you.
Why are you treating me like a stalker?
Let's just talk. Please?
Talk to me. Please?
But how did you know
he'd been stalking her for a long time?
Pardon?
You just testified yourself.
Come on, there are
a ton of celebrities who live here.
We're really not interested.
Thank you so much for today.
I'll be going now.
Mr. Choi.
"Mr. Choi"?
I heard you're at the police station!
Did you tell on me?
No, I reported what happened.
It's nothing, Uncle.
What do you mean it's nothing?
Get over here right now!
I've been too easy on you.
I won't say it twice.
Get over here right now!
I'll leave now.
Yes, sir.
Damn it.
Ever seen an uncle
who uses Muay Thai on his nephew?
He has no feeling in his shin.
-Can you drive me?
-Who, me?
Don't you know celebrities
are banned from driving
-when there's an issue?
-No, I didn't know.
It's my own rule. It's a good one.
Let's go. Please.
You know I've been
going easy on you, don't you?
Uncle, just listen to me.
This bastard here, he's a flagrant stalker
who's been stalking this woman
for several months.
He started fleeing
before I could even call the police,
so I had no choice.
You have proof?
Yes, he's probably in jail right now.
The police have the CCTV footage.
Good.
Then let's use that bastard.
Call the victim
and tell her not to settle.
We'll pay for the damages.
And get her to sit down for an interview.
Talk about her relationship with that jerk
and how much she suffered.
That's a great idea.
It'll do wonders for you.
No!
What if we provoke him
and he says stupid things?
You'll be ruined at this rate!
We really can't.
I have my reasons.
Then are you going to tell them
you assaulted a random guy?
Yes, let's do that.
Let's just say I got into a fight.
The fortune teller said.
you should watch your health.
I didn't know I would be the danger.
Uncle! Wait.
I get it.
Will you get the interview?
No, but let's come
to an agreement on this.
On what?
Where are you going to hit me?
Just on my thigh?
You left without saying
anything last night.
You wouldn't even wake up
when I shouted in your ears.
So you woke up like that this morning?
Yes.
So where are you?
I'm sitting in a cafe,
enjoying a book while having brunch.
Sounds nice.
Today's a Sunday.
How about we go on a date this afternoon?
Ms. Choi?
Oh.
A Sunday date isn't something I'm used to.
I'd love that.
There's this park that I found.
Apparently,
it's a pretty lit spot for couples.
Why don't I meet you there?
Hold on, "lit?"
And how do you know this?
I'm on social media now.
One of my colleagues advised
social media is a must
for discovering date spots.
Let me know when and where.
I'll see you later.
I'm so sorry.
I know you guys are divorced.
After Mom passed away,
I couldn't contact my brother for weeks,
so I went to his place.
I was shocked when I saw his room.
Seon-ho, are you in?
What have you been up to?
Why won't you answer my calls?
What's all this?
Have you lost it?
In all my life,
she was the only woman
who ever understood me.
I thought he'd stop eventually.
I'm really sorry.
But could you please drop the charges?
It'd be much easier for him if you did.
Let me apologize on his behalf.
You know he's really not a bad person.
Please get up.
I'm begging you, please.
You went to Seoul National University,
only to quit your job
and blow all your savings on stocks.
How long will you keep using
Mom as an excuse?
Is it not enough that she's dead?
Seon-ha, is she really getting married?
She's really marrying
Kang Hae-jin, isn't she?
All women are materialistic.
-Just like Mom.
-Get a grip on yourself!
Your ex-wife seemed to be doing very well
with a wonderful man.
Do you know how it felt,
having to kneel before a woman like that?
Sir, that Kang Hae-jin
sure is handsome, isn't he?
Yes, and very tall.
But celebrities have it tough.
Why hasn't he announced
that he'd caught a stalker?
It was his fiancée's ex-husband.
He's keeping it quiet
in case word gets out that
she's been divorced.
-You think so?
-Of course.
I guess that's why he was on my case,
saying I shouldn't have called her.
"Was it you who called her?"
How was that?
It's not the same when you do it.
Now, if I did it…
it wouldn't be cool either.
"Was it you who called her?"
Stop it.
I resent my ex-sister-in-law
who left my brother.
My brother, who used to be Mom's pride,
has been a totally different person
since his divorce eight years ago.
He's completely broken.
But that woman
couldn't be doing better in life.
Rumor has it that she is about to
get married to a famous actor.
I wonder if he knows
what kind of a woman she is.
She was just never meant to be
with your brother.
So don't blame her for this.
What would you know?
Are you Kang Hae-jin's fan or something?
Are you angrier than me?
The man I wish to protect
is also involved with this woman.
I want to expose it all too.
But if everyone found out
about the truth that infuriates you,
would she be the only one who's hurt?
Your brother will be even more broken.
Is that what you want?
So stop what you're doing.
Stop resenting her.
I HOPE HE COMES AROUND
FOR HIS SISTER'S SAKE
WHO IS THIS FAMOUS CELEBRITY?
I FEEL LIKE I'VE SEEN HER.
SHE LOOKS FAMILIAR.
HOW MANY TIMES HAS SHE BEEN MARRIED?
I REMEMBER THE BRIDE WAS BEAUTIFUL
IT IS HER. WHY IS EVERYONE DENYING IT?
SHE'S MY COUSIN'S WIFE
SHE'S MY BOSS'S WIFE?
HOW DO YOU FORGET A FACE LIKE THAT?
I WORKED PART-TIME AT THE WEDDING HALL.
I REMEMBER HOW PRETTY SHE WAS.
I FEEL SORRY FOR CHOI SANG-EUN'S MEN
CHOI SANG-EUN
THAT'S HOW SHE SUCCEEDED IN MARRYING UP
NOW I REMEMBER CHOI SANG-EUN
ARREST THIS WOMAN!
CHOI SANG-GEUN, NOW I REMEMBER
SO MANY VICTIMS
My boyfriend is so cute.
Hey, an article about Kang Hae-jin.
What is it?
This woman got totally doxxed.
Totally.
THE PAST OF KANG HAE-JIN'S FIANCÉE
Everyone in this country knows you now.
I hate this.
Kang Hae-jin is going to
hold a press conference.
We'll say Choi Sang-eun used Kang Hae-jin.
How dare you ruin my work?
This is my life.
How come you're always
so fine with everything?
Why do you always bottle it up
when people attack you?
Why do you always do that?
I don't care what other people think.
You're the one who matters to me.
It was Yu Mi-ho I had to take care of,
not Kang Hae-jin.
Ms. Choi, are you all right?
