ALL CHARACTERS, PLACES, EVENTS, ORGANIZATIONS AND SETTINGS ARE FICTITIOUS
Oh, no! I'm so sorry. I broke your expensive teacup.
I bet it's very expensive.
I'm really sorry.
It's okay.
Your eyes look just like your daughter's.
I look a lot like Seok-gyeong, don't I? I get that often.
So what do you have to say about my children?
Actually, Seok-hun and Seok-gyeong
got involved in some trouble.
Some trouble? Did something happen at school?
Yes.
You live in such a fancy house,
but you didn't do a great job raising your kids.
People say children are the reflection of their parents.
I guess you aren't such a good mother.
These kids who are only 17
assaulted their classmate as a group and threatened him.
-The nature of their offense is very-- -I'm sorry.
I have no excuses to make as a parent.
I heard something like this happened
even before they started going to this school.
Was her name Min Seol-a?
I heard they bullied this girl,
spread rumors about her on social media, and caused an uproar.
How's that boy they harassed?
Is he badly hurt?
I'm sure his physical wound doesn't hurt as much as the one made in his heart.
And he'll be scared to go to school along with your children.
That's exactly why I'm thinking of punishing them severely.
I'm going to put an end to their awful behavior.
You and I should discuss that.
Goodness. You must be Seok-hun's father.
I'm Gu Ho-dong, an assistant HR teacher in Seok-hun and Seok-gyeong's class.
You must be the new resident.
Nice to meet you.
Hello, welcome to Hera Palace.
Hello.
I'm moving into the unit on the 45th floor.
-Oh Yun-hui? -I hope we get along, Seo-jin.
Has this woman gone crazy?
You need to make some sense so I can at least pretend I'm listening.
Guard!
Stop her from moving in!
I'm guessing you've misunderstood.
Hera Palace isn't a place where anyone can live in.
You'll need a resident to recommend--
Do you mean this?
"Recommended by Joo Dan-tae"?
Do you finally understand what's going on?
Does Chairman Joo have dementia?
Doesn't he know what she's like? How can he let her live in Hera Palace?
Does this mean I have to spend my days
having this vulgar woman right next door?
Call Chairman Joo right now.
I will not trust anything before I check this myself.
And until I do that…
you will not move an inch from here.
Take a look.
Are you bribing me?
That depends on how you take it.
It could turn into a bribe or a token of our friendship.
Are you telling me to take this
and cover up your children's violence?
What if I won't?
Yes.
You will.
If you wanted to bring justice, you'd be at the Education Office now.
Instead of this penthouse.
Isn't that so, Mr. Gu?
You're a man of great insight.
Experts like us don't need a long explanation, right?
I knew we'd speak the same language.
Let me erase that video myself.
Of course, you should.
You know how to wrap things up.
Here.
There aren't many people who are bold enough to betray me
after taking my money.
Of course, I'm aware.
-I understand. I get what you're saying. -I'm an investor.
My job is to invest only in the things that are of value.
I'll see if you'll end up holding me back
or dragging me down.
-We'll find out in time. -Or grabbing you in the neck.
I'm just joking.
-Hello? -Come on down.
We need you here in a hurry. Shit hit the fan down here.
All right.
This is…
Is this real? You bought a unit in Hera Palace?
Is this recommendation card legit?
Wait, are you suggesting I forged the recommendation or what?
Hey, if she forged a private document, we should call the police on her.
Hey, I'm the same human like you.
I paid using my own money to legitimately buy a unit here.
Why are you acting crazy
and dividing people into different classes?
You're so shallow.
-Crazy? Shallow? -Goodness.
Would you believe this?
There's no way Chairman Joo would give--
I did. I signed that.
So this is true?
I'm not sure what I should demand as my condition.
There's something I thought of.
It's a condition that's necessary for both you
and me.
What is it?
Tell him you'll move into Hera Palace.
Into Hera Palace?
What are you talking about, Su-ryeon?
Hera Palace?
Did I just hear that correctly?
It doesn't matter if you reject my condition.
Give me a call if you change your mind.
Hera Palace isn't a place where anybody can live in, Ms. Oh.
I've heard, so I'm well aware of that.
I heard you need a recommendation and an agreement from the residents.
However,
with your recommendation, anyone can move in unconditionally.
As soon as I get a unit in Hera Palace,
I'll hand over that house in Myeong-dong.
She met all of our requirements, so I gave her my recommendation.
Do I have to explain everything?
Our kids go to the same school, and it'd be a great connection.
I hope we could all get along.
Good connection? What is this rubbish?
Chairman Joo.
Are you determined to ruin Hera for good?
Did you know about this?
-Honey, really? -No way.
This is an arbitrary decision he made.
Not me. Don't falsely accuse me.
This is too much.
You should have given a hint to me.
Then may I continue with my moving in?
I have a lot of furniture and home appliances to bring in.
I hope we could all get along, neighbors.
Will you please move aside?
How can you let her in here without a word to me?
You know very well how much I loathe her, yet you betrayed me like this? How?
Calm down.
How can I calm down?
You should've stopped her in any way you could!
Do you think I wanted to do this?
Our business was involved in this. I had no other choice.
Go talk to your husband if you want to nit-pick over this.
He is the number one contributor in letting Oh Yun-hui move in.
What?
Your husband seems to care a lot about Oh Yun-hui.
They're much more than friends, aren't they?
You'd better explain everything right now.
Say it so that I can understand.
What is this? Are you visiting Seok-gyeong's place again?
Why do they keep hanging out with this girl?
She's way out of our league.
This elevator is for residents only.
The one for maids is back there. So get lost.
I'm on my way home right now.
What are you saying? Your home?
The door is open.
Move aside.
Mom.
Mom!
Ro-na went into the house across the hall.
Is this a prank? It must be a dream!
Or I must be possessed by a ghost.
Be quiet.
Stay quiet. I'm doing some thinking for once.
Is it true that she moved into that house?
Yes, that's a good idea!
My gosh.
Wow.
Everything is so pretty!
Mom.
Is this really our home?
Are we really going to live in Hera Palace starting today?
-And all the furniture is ours too? -Yes, this is our home.
-Do you want to see your room? -Yes. Where is it?
One second.
Let me cover your eyes.
-What are you doing? -This way.
Ta-da.
Mom, these are all mine?
The bed and the desk. Everything is so pretty.
Mom. This isn't a dream, is it? Can you pinch me?
It's not a dream.
I can't believe this!
This is awesome.
This is wonderful.
What's this?
It's a present from Ms. Sim.
Go on and take a look.
A piano?
Do you like it?
I was wondering what I should get as your gift
and thought a piano was perfect.
I hope you become a wonderful singer.
Thank you, Ms. Sim.
I absolutely love it.
My life's wish had been getting a piano of my own.
I promise I'll practice like crazy.
I love it so much.
Go on and take a look.
Seol-a.
I'm so happy to see you smile,
my beautiful daughter.
I thought you'd be busy moving in, so I brought you some food.
We can just order jajangmyeon. You didn't have to pack us food.
No way.
You're a good cook too?
Seriously, you are the jackpot of my life, my savior, and my good luck charm.
Stop flattering me. I'm getting dizzy.
This is so good.
Wow.
You decorated your place neatly.
Su-ryeon.
Thank you so much.
I couldn't have moved here without you.
I'll never forget what you did for me.
You don't owe me anything. You've been through a lot, Yun-hui.
You're starting here on the 45th floor,
but keep making even more money to keep moving up to the 60th, the 70th,
and even to the 85th floor where Seo-jin lives.
In the end, you might want the penthouse too.
Su-ryeon. That's nonsense.
How could I dare to live in the penthouse?
That's complete nonsense, really.
What do you think?
You're right. Why haven't I thought of that?
This is precisely why we're members of Hera Palace Operation Committee.
Once we get everyone to vote,
it'll be a matter of time before we kick them out.
Even if we lose the penthouse's vote, we have two from Dr. Ha's family,
two votes from this family, and one vote from me.
That's already more than half. We can get rid of them immediately.
Yes, we found a way.
Why won't you say anything?
Aren't you all for it, Honey?
Did Dr. Ha say he'll agree?
And did you ask for their opinion?
There is no need to ask them.
Ms. Cheon and Yun-hui are enemies. They can't live in the same building.
It'll end in a bloodbath.
I think we'll see a bloodbath right upstairs.
Gosh.
You knew, didn't you?
That Oh Yun-hui will move to Hera Palace.
It looks like you knew.
Did you put him up to this?
What did I do?
Chairman Joo gave her the recommendation.
You liar.
Are you thrilled to have your heartrending first love by your side?
Let me make myself clear.
I can't live with Oh Yun-hui lurking around here day and night.
So what if you can't?
She already moved in with Chairman Joo's permission.
Of course, I'll make her leave.
It feels like I'm in hell right now.
It's as if the nightmare of my past came back to haunt me.
-It's driving me crazy. -Twenty years have gone by already.
You can't use that reason to kick her out.
Interesting.
It looks like I'm the only one who's uncomfortable with this situation.
Do you finally feel at ease to see her live a better life?
Have you been that heartbroken?
Did you love her so much that you felt guilty over your entire life
after you abandoned her?
Enough is enough.
You're crossing the line right now.
Did you think I didn't know
that you still loved her even as you married me?
You stayed up all night last night studying for your exam.
I brought you a change of clothes.
Heart-shaped.
And this is my pay for this month. Use it for your boarding fee.
No way. Why do you always do this?
I'm giving it to you to feel at peace.
You don't have to be sorry. I'm serious. And it's not much.
Keep it.
I'll become a doctor soon and support you for the rest of your life.
And I'll get rid of this scar too.
That sounds great.
-Let's eat. -It's so good.
Dad, it's me.
It's about Cheong-a Foundation's next scholarship.
I wanted to recommend a med school student.
-Open up. -Okay.
What happened?
Did you accept Cheong-a's scholarship?
And did you go to their party to have fun and take pictures with the chief director?
Why didn't you tell me?
I felt bad for taking the scholarship and not showing up.
It doesn't mean anything.
Do you call that an excuse?
Who told you to study to be a doctor with their dirty money?
Why do you make me disappointed?
There's no such thing as dirty money.
I stayed up many nights. I'm tired.
Wait, Yun-cheol.
Return your scholarship right now.
Go throw that money in Cheon Seo-jin's face!
What do you expect me to do?
There's no way my family can support me through this.
My whole family is all dirty-poor, so we can't even borrow any money!
You can just turn a blind eye and let me take their money.
Why are you so sensitive over this?
You know, that's called a sense of inferiority.
What?
How can you say that?
Do you want to beg the girl who did this to my life to keep studying?
I hate how you're involved with her
even more than my own death!
That darned Cheon Seo-jin!
Enough is enough. I'm sick and tired of this!
Darn it.
NAKSEONG BOARDING HOUSE
Ha Yun-cheol!
CERTIFICATE OF SCHOLARSHIP CHEONG-A FOUNDATION
CONNECTION
-You should stop drinking. -Leave me alone.
Darn it.
-What does she want me to do? -Your studies are already tough enough.
Why do you put that burden on yourself?
I'll give you…
wings.
Watch and see who'll end up living here.
I'm going to do everything I can to kick her out of this place.
Oh Yun-hui.
Oh Yun-hui!
Don't you get sick of this?
You know, that's called a guilty conscience.
You'd better behave,
unless you want to see
either Yun-hui or me leave this place dead.
You've already done that so many times. Aren't you tired?
Not at all. Why would I get tired of cleaning up my own house?
Mom.
You kept your promise to let me live in Hera Palace.
I can't believe I lived long enough to see a day like this.
I never lived my life
without worrying about money.
But I'm no longer in debt, and I don't have to worry about the lease.
This is unbelievable, isn't it?
I'll get into Seoul National University of Music,
go study abroad in Italy,
and sing as a prima donna at the best opera theatre in the world.
Okay. From now on, you can do everything you ever wanted to.
Okay.
Ro-na, this is the first night in our new home.
Let's sleep together.
-Okay. -Let's do that.
Let's go.
Did you have a nightmare?
Did I wake you?
No, I was tossing and turning because I couldn't sleep.
Hera Palace.
I put in such careful work in the creation of this place,
but now, there's a scratch on it.
I wanted to gather the elites of Korea to provide the best education for children
and share the best community. But my plan…
has been tampered with because of Oh Yun-hui.
Ro-na's mom?
Don't get close to her.
I won't condone it.
Hello.
Could you give me a hand?
I'm not sure how to use this equipment.
Me?
This is similar to assisted dip machine.
You have to work…
Work your pectoral muscles.
My goodness.
Attorney Lee, you seem to know everything.
Is it because you're a lawyer?
You have a knack for explaining things very easily.
-You're one intelligent man. -Intelligent?
Then may I ask you questions whenever I'm not sure of something?
Like a boy, I mean, guy friend.
A boyfriend?
A guy friend. Yes, a guy friend.
I mean,
we do have a special history.
It's better to have a familiar face here
than a complete stranger.
Well, you know,
you're very good-hearted, my woman friend.
It's my first time at such a luxurious gym,
so I was a bit troubled.
Please help me out, my friend.
Wait, goodness.
With your glasses off,
you look fatally sexy.
I'm sure you get that a lot.
My gosh.
Sexy? Am I?
I usually get…
I'm on the cute side.
People usually say that.
You're already going to the gym?
You won't be staying here for long, so enjoy it while you can.
It'll be a great experience for you.
Does it make you feel better when you say things like that?
Actually, I'm very grateful to you.
I've always wondered what your home was like.
I wanted it too.
I think that's what got me here today.
I'm grateful for that.
From now on,
I'm going to want even more things.
Your house on the 85th floor.
Everything you have.
And the things you took from me. Everything.
You should do your best to keep it all, Seo-jin.
That was an aggressive welcome.
Is this how people in Hera Palace treat their neighbors?
Don't be so cheeky.
I'm trying to hold myself back from this urge to kill you right now.
Don't.
I'm always ready to deal with you.
Whatever.
Find out where this woman is, as soon as possible.
-Do you have other information? -No.
I just know she ran a linen shop in Dongdaemun ten years ago.
I'll ask around and make sure I find her.
I will kick you out, Oh Yun-hui.
I will.
That's all for today's class.
And this week, we'll have an audition to pick out a school ambassador.
We're going to pick one boy and one girl.
Once you become the school ambassador, you'll host
every single school event, and it'll go down on your student record.
I'm going to take volunteers now. Who wants to audition?
Okay. Min-hyeok, Eun-byeol…
Ro-na, you too?
Yes. I want to be a school ambassador too.
Sure. You're very courageous.
Volunteers, do your best to get prepared.
That's all.
I have something to tell you.
What is it?
I'll go if you don't have anything to say.
I like you.
I had feelings for you for a long time.
I know that you'd feel uncomfortable.
That's why I couldn't tell you.
But I can't bear to see you be considerate of someone else.
Eun-byeol. What's with you? I don't understand what you're saying.
What do you think of me?
No, don't answer me right now.
You can give me your answer once we both become school ambassadors.
I'm going to do my best.
I won't let anyone else take that spot, especially Ro-na.
Now that we bought the little piece of land from Oh Yun-hui,
we should begin working on our project now.
Of course.
We managed to create
a square-shaped land in Myeong-dong.
We could sell it at the highest price.
So, who's the guy that wants to buy this land?
If this guy plans on building up
such a huge shopping town in Myeong-dong, he must be filthy rich.
I hear he's the most successful Korean-American in the US.
His name is Logan Lee.
Logan Lee?
He came to Korea to seal this deal, so I'm going to meet him soon.
May I see him with you?
I went to see him a few times, but I haven't met him yet.
He's a guy who has a 100-story building in the middle of Manhattan.
It can't be that easy to get to him.
A 100-story building?
The Madison Tower?
What did he do to make so much money?
His father made it big in the real estate industry,
and he's a famous theater owner now.
He's the biggest role model of my life.
The profit solely from the observatory is enough to let three generations live.
That means he doesn't know a thing
about the Korean real estate market.
Let's con that man real good and grab this chance to make big money.
We should sell it ten times higher. You up for it?
How do you think he became a rich man?
He's skeptical, and he doesn't trust anyone.
That's why he's rich.
But if we set this up wisely, we might be able to make a huge profit.
Only then will it be worth putting up with Oh Yun-hui
to buy that land from the auction.
But will Oh Yun-hui
keep living in Hera Palace, Dr. Ha?
You don't know?
Will you let her stay?
That just can't happen.
Hera Palace is too good for her.
I'll take measures against this,
so don't worry about this and get back to your class.
You have to be one of the top five kids to get into SNU of Music. Understand?
Okay, bye.
Hello. I just moved into unit 4502.
You should have some.
-Rice cake? -Right here.
-Thank you. -I'm sorry. I don't eat rice cake.
Ms. Cheon will get furious at you.
-Do you want to get fired over rice cake? -You're right.
Don't tell her.
Seo-jin, you're unbelievably powerful.
I can't believe some people still give out rice cake after moving in.
We don't do that here at Hera Palace.
If it was dried yellow corvina, well…
Really? I'm not used to how things are here.
The way you dress is, how can I put this?
Very difficult to understand.
It's not a style we often see here at Hera Palace.
She's like a maid.
I'm still sorting out my house, so I'd rather be in comfy clothes.
-Do you want some rice cake? -No one in my family would eat that.
My husband and child are very picky.
My mother-in-law is Wang Mi-ja, the food researcher. You know her, right?
I don't think so. I never watch TV.
You must be heading out. Goodbye, then.
-That little… -She doesn't know her?
How can she not know Wang Mi-ja, the food researcher?
She's a regular member of Best Chef. How can she not know her?
Call Ms. Cheon right away to call a meeting as the Operation Committee.
She'll finally learn her place once she gets kicked out in shame.
It must be more frustrating for you to be on the same floor.
It means you two are on the same level.
"On the same level"?
Once my husband returns from Dubai, we'll move up to the 60th floor too.
We're going to move right away.
One second.
Hello?
I was about to head out.
You should soak yourself in hot water and wait just a little bit.
I'll be there to melt away all of your fatigue.
Okay.
I'm leaving.
She has gone insane.
She's definitely having an affair.
My goodness, that's disgusting. My gosh!
MARI SAUNA
Oh, Ms. Byun. The new mobile phone is amazing.
It's going to be a hit. The stock price must have jumped too.
Oh, I heard your pharmaceutical company will soon go public on the KOSDAQ.
Is that true, Ms. Song?
Your eldest son will take over, right?
Rumor has it that they have developed a medication for Alzheimer's.
They'll make it big when it goes public.
Give us some of the unlisted shares.
Don't even dream of it.
Only one person deserves to receive my company's stock.
Who is that person?
Who do you think?
Lady Jincheon, of course.
-Gosh. -I see.
Ms. Song.
Your 13 minutes is up. Please come over here.
You're not cold, are you?
Would you like the seaweed facial, ma'am?
-Why bother asking? I totally trust you. -All right.
My gosh.
By the way, where have you been?
Your skin feels rough. Were you abroad recently?
What? My god. You can tell?
I visited a few European countries, but the spas there weren't that great.
Why don't you close this place and move to Gangnam?
I'll let you run the sauna at my hotel.
Thank you very much for the offer.
But I started at the bottom of the barrel
and managed to come this far with this exfoliating mitt alone.
This is like my second home and where my heart belongs.
This is why I like you.
I admire your passion and pride as a body scrub master.
Right, the stock you told me to keep.
It hit the ceiling, so I made some good money.
Good.
You have access to information that no one else can get.
The three of you are my saviors.
What are you talking about?
You're our savior.
Oh, right.
How about I pay for you to get surgery for that scar?
Gosh, I don't need surgery.
To me, this is like an honorable trophy. That's what this scar means to me.
MARI SAUNA
Ma'am. Ma'am!
Out of the way! Move!
Move!
We're almost there. Stay with me, ma'am.
Gosh!
Damn it.
I'm alive today because I didn't miss the golden hour.
You were faster than an ambulance.
How did you run all the way to the hospital in your underwear?
My gosh, it's nothing.
I'm embarrassed, ma'am.
Come to think of it, you've saved many lives.
Even when I had a heart attack, you did CPR and brought me back to life.
-Remember? -You also detected my breast cancer.
You're like a skilled doctor.
Even a famous doctor couldn't detect it, yet you did.
Right.
Lady Jincheon, you saved our lives.
We'll help you big time one day.
We take revenge, but we also return favors.
My gosh, please.
I'm embarrassed. Stop, please.
I made this rice punch.
It'll cool you down. Here, have some.
-Okay, sounds good. -Okay.
Why is he so arrogant? Is it that hard to show me your face?
What did he say? Are we meeting him?
Did he turn you down again?
What the heck? This is so embarrassing.
How many times has he rejected you? We even came all the way here.
-Is he actually interested in buying it? -Obviously, he…
That's obviously why he came to Korea.
From what I've found out,
he's looking for a property that's worth about 500 billion won.
What? 500 billion won?
When it comes to real estate properties, it's never good to rush things.
You have to act like there's no rush to make the other party anxious.
Only then can negotiations begin.
Patience can help you earn more money.
Five hundred billion won?
What are you guys doing here?
Our classmate is our next-door neighbor now.
What's strange about visiting?
I brought some braised short ribs. My mom wanted to share this with you.
-Are you surprised? -No, come on in.
Okay.
I didn't have enough time to cook. I hope you guys like it.
Had I known you guys were coming, I would have done it properly.
Next time, I'll cook nicer things.
Ms. Oh, I don't mean to be rude,
but we'd like to hang out on our own today.
What? Oh, of course.
What was I thinking?
You can hang out here until late at night, so have fun.
Thanks for coming.
We hope we're not being a nuisance. Thank you for the food.
All right.
I'll step out then.
-Gosh. -Oh, boy.
You're studying vocal music. Do you usually eat like this?
What's your mom thinking?
Look at this spicy tteokbokki and…
Gosh, and these greasy fritters.
Such inconsiderate choices.
My goodness.
If my mom saw this, she'd totally pass out.
Gosh, it's all junk food.
Guys, what's wrong with you? Don't be so rude.
We're here to get closer. Ro-na, don't take it to heart.
-You know they don't mean what they say. -Yes, it's okay.
Wow, I don't believe this.
Seok-hun eating food at someone else's house?
Then I'll try one too.
It's actually not bad.
-Is it good? -Yes, try it.
Here.
-It's so good. -I know.
Here, try this too.
I'm going to the bathroom.
It's tasty.
-The juice! -The juice? Okay.
RO-NA'S DIARY
MOM AND I GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT
JOO SEOK-HUN
I wonder if Seok-hun drank the chocolate milk I gave him.
I think I have a crush on Seok-hun.
-What are you doing here? -Oh, nothing.
Aren't you coming?
You go ahead. I want to take a look at her room.
It's nicely decorated. Ro-na actually has good taste.
Doesn't she?
I don't know.
I can't believe she already took a photo.
-Seok-gyeong. -Yes?
What are you doing here?
Just looking around.
Isn't her room nicely decorated?
Ro-na and her mother.
Are we going to let them stay at Hera Palace?
Of course not.
We should meet with the committee and have them move out.
We've already decided to do that.
But she has that recommendation card,
so we can't kick them out without a good reason.
Then what should we do?
-What do you want? -I'll have a latte.
Be it misconduct or an unethical deed.
We'll find something and make people vote against her.
I'll set everything up.
I just need the two of you
to encourage the others to be on board.
You can do that, right?
Easy-peasy.
Has anyone seen my hairpin?
-Gosh. -What hairpin?
You know, that hairpin. The one my dad sent me from Dubai.
You mean, the one with diamonds? Where did you put something so expensive?
I don't know. This is so annoying!
There's been a theft case at our school,
which is absolutely unacceptable.
The stolen item is a hairpin with diamonds on it.
Since it's such an expensive item,
I must check all your belongings.
Ro-na, open your pencil case.
-What? -What is that? Do you smoke?
No, I don't. This isn't mine.
Then whose is it? Isn't this your bag?
Yes, it is my bag.
But I swear it's not mine. I really don't smoke.
How dare you keep on lying to me.
Are you the one who stole Je-ni's hairpin?
-What's that? -My gosh.
Ro-na. What do you have to say about this?
How could you bring an X-rated magazine to school?
Please believe me. It really isn't mine!
Someone put these in my bag on purpose.
Hey, Je-ni.
It was you, right? You did this. Is this another ruse of yours?
Tell me! I asked you if you did this!
What are you talking about? I'm so upset about my hairpin!
My dad bought it for my birthday! It's a gift from my dad!
Hey.
I never liked your attitude and the way you talk to me.
-Follow me to the staff room. -Please believe me.
They're not mine.
Seriously, I swear.
Something's gone wrong.
I'm telling you the truth!
Stop lying. Just come with me!
Please believe me. Please? I've never even seen those things before.
I'm telling you the truth, Mr. Ma.
-Follow me. -Please hear me out.
I've never seen them before!
Ro-na got what she deserved, right? I guess I didn't need to worry about her.
Had I known she was like that, I would have stayed far away.
It was you, wasn't it? The cigarettes in Ro-na's bag.
What are you talking about? No, it wasn't me.
You went into her room yesterday.
I did, but…
Anyway, it wasn't me. For real. Don't you trust me?
Are you going to lie to me as well?
I'm disappointed in you.
Seok-hun. Joo Seok-hun!
Isn't her room nicely decorated?
This won't end with just some penalty points.
This is enough to get her suspended.
If she gets suspended,
she won't be qualified to apply for the school ambassador role.
Ro-na never stood a chance anyway.
It'll be Seok-gyeong versus Eun-byeol.
I can't believe she smokes when she's studying vocal music.
Punish Ro-na according to the rules.
Sure thing.
I'M OH YUN-HUI'S MOTHER-IN-LAW!
I am here to tell you the truth about Oh Yun-hui,
who lives in Unit 4502 at Hera Palace!
As soon as
her husband died,
she abandoned her old and ill mother-in-law.
She lives here, the most expensive building in the country
while I, her mother-in-law, can't even afford to pay rent
or sustain myself. I'm only alive because I can't kill myself.
Does this make sense to you?
How could she be so ungrateful?
Just because her husband died, she cut all ties with her in-laws.
She took all of my son's hard-earned money and ran away with it.
She's utterly shameless!
-My gosh. -How could she do that?
It's her, right?
What are you doing right now?
Please leave!
-What's going on here? -Quiet.
It's very entertaining, so just watch.
Will you please stop?
My smarty-pants daughter-in-law. There you are.
Do you only care about yourself?
I'm still Ro-na's grandmother.
How could you completely ignore me like this?
God, you bled my son dry.
Now you won't even let me see Ro-na.
I can't even die because I'm so angry.
You have no idea how angry I am!
Why don't you at least explain?
Did you really abandon your mother-in-law?
How could you do such a thing?
A lowlife like you shouldn't be allowed to live here.
I've only heard about this kind of stuff on the news.
Don't you all agree?
-Yes. -Totally.
-We can talk in private. Come on. -My goodness.
-Gosh. -Look at that!
-Unbelievable. -My goodness.
My poor son.
If he saw me like this, he'd be utterly headtbroken.
This is why it's so important to pick the right daughter-in-law.
Enough, please!
Have you forgotten
how your son died?
He got drunk
and fell over the railing while cheating on me!
Am I responsible for that?
-How dare you talk back to me! -Mother.
Have you ever given Ro-na
a warm hug, even just once?
You've never even bought a single toy for her.
All you ever cared about was money!
After I got married,
I gave you money every month for your living expenses.
Before your son died,
he got into debt just so he could help his mistress start a business.
And I had to pay that off.
You're the one who ran off
with all the condolence money at his funeral.
You wanted to cut ties with me
because you were afraid I'd want half of your house!
You said you never wanted to see me again. And you're blaming me for everything now?
Why?
For the first time in my life,
I have the chance to live a decent life in a nice apartment.
Is it that hard for you to watch?
Is that why you're causing a scene here?
Your son died
while cheating on me.
How could you use him to sabotage me?
What an eventful life.
Gosh, I can't even breathe.
Leave, please!
-You can't do this, ma'am. -Let go!
You little… Hands off. Let go!
You can let go. Let go of her.
She's Ro-na's grandmother. I'll deal with her.
I apologize for all this commotion.
I'm sorry you had to hear about my private life. I'm so embarrassed.
I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.
Please leave.
If you want money from me,
you'd better get up now!
You piece of…
Lead the way.
I have to say, she's quite charismatic.
She really is.
Honey, why are you crying?
Gosh, you idiot.
-You fool. -Gosh!
That hurts!
Do you really not know why I'm crying?
Honey, get back here!
How dare you push your husband. Get back here!
I kind of feel bad for her. Don't you, Ms. Cheon?
We'll still kick her out, of course.
But that reminded me of my mother-in-law, which is giving me a headache.
Is it because her memorial is coming up?
Oh, my princess. When did you get here?
You must be hungry. Let's go eat. Come on.
You lost.
What did you say?
I said, you lost.
Just admit it. You can't kick Yun-hui out.
So what are you saying?
You won't let me move in with you? Is that it?
That's right. I don't want that.
I don't want to see you complain to Ro-na about everything
or roam around as if you own the place.
You really don't hold back. How did you stay quiet all these years?
How did you know that I live here?
It was very easy to find out.
We haven't stayed in touch for five years.
Who is it?
-Who told you that I live here? -No one!
If you tell me the truth,
I'll help you get a long-term rental.
BANK BOOK
I see that you've become quite generous since I've last seen you.
Stop drinking.
-Are you okay? -No. I'm not okay.
My life…
It's such a mess, isn't it?
But now that everyone knows about it,
I feel relieved.
It's not your fault.
You did your best and worked hard.
Despite the situation, you did such a great job raising Ro-na.
It's admirable.
How come
you look more upset than I am?
I just wonder
if things would be different now
if I hadn't left you back then.
Do you regret marrying…
Seo-jin?
Life is full of regrets, you know.
They say that life is about
living with the choices that you didn't make.
That wasn't your fault.
So don't feel apologetic towards me.
Back then…
we were too young.
And…
my life wasn't always so miserable.
I have Ro-na, you know.
Thanks for saying that.
We should go home.
I shouldn't have called you.
Yun-hui. Are you all right?
CONNECTION
Sorry. That was my mistake.
You should go after your wife.
Seo-jin saw us together just now.
What?
-What was she doing here? -I told her to come.
She was the one who made my mother-in-law cause a scene earlier.
I'm sorry about this.
Yun-cheol.
I can't put up with this anymore.
Oh Yun-hui, I will make you hit rock bottom again.
I will kick her out of Hera Palace.
CONNECTION
My husband went to the villa again.
After buying a ton of new clothes for Cheon Seo-jin.
Joo Dan-tae?
Were you with Yun-hui all night?
I really like your enthusiasm.
Ms. Sim, you don't deserve to be this happy.
Shoot me. Go ahead and shoot!
You scumbags!
