Do-hee.

-We-- -Let's finish decorating

the Christmas tree tonight.

I should also book the couple set that we couldn't have last time.

I hope it's still available.

I don't think…

we can spend Christmas together.

Do-hee.

Save yourself…

from hell.

Gu-won.

Gu-won.

By the time chilly winds start blowing above ground in October,

heralding the coming of winter,

spring has already begun underground.

But that also means that by the time beautiful cherry blossoms bloom in spring,

winter has already begun underground.

Even during our happy moments together,

perhaps our goodbye

had already begun.

EPISODE 15 THE END OF FATE

ZERO SUGAR IS THE TREND FOR 2023

ZERO SUGAR IS THE TREND FOR 2023

Yes?

I've moved all your plans for this morning to the afternoon.

Thank you.

I'll head to the office after I talk to the prosecutor.

Will you be okay by yourself?

Shouldn't your attorney accompany you?

I'll be fine. See you in a bit.

Sir.

CHIEF PROSECUTOR'S OFFICE

Hello.

Ms. Do.

CHIEF PROSECUTOR CHOI WOO-SUN

Good to see you again.

I'll do my best

as my name suggests.

I'm sure you remember me.

I didn't know you were the prosecutor in charge of my case.

I know.

What an interesting turn of events.

Please have a seat.

It's already been a week

since the suspect, Noh Suk-min, jumped into the Han River.

Is his body still missing?

Yes.

Will the investigation be closed when the body is found?

When the suspect dies,

the case is usually closed since there's no one to prosecute anymore.

I heard

that you asked for a transparent investigation.

There are still some questions regarding Chairwoman Ju's death.

Since Noh Suk-min can no longer confess,

I want the investigation to uncover the truth.

That's why you need…

a competent prosecutor like me.

My apologies.

I'm determined to shed light on the atrocities committed by Noh Suk-min

and make sure such things never happen again in this country.

I promise to get to the bottom of this,

no matter what.

-Okay. -On that note,

-let's take a selfie for old times' sake. -Pardon?

-Are you okay? -Yes, I'm fine.

All right. Don't get a cold.

If it's not too much to ask, allow me to post this on social media.

It is too much to ask.

Chairman Noh's body has yet to be found.

According to the police, the search is proving to be difficult

as he fell into the Han River from the rooftop of a building.

-Mommy. -Mommy.

Austin.

Justin.

-Mr. Han. -Yes?

Ms. Choi.

I hear the body's still missing.

Hey!

It's already been a week.

I bet he's been eaten up by fish.

Chaebols must be wired differently from ordinary people like us.

How could he do that to his family?

Chaebols sold their souls to the devil, you see.

That's right.

It's the least one can do

to become a chaebol.

Ms. Do is a chaebol too.

She's different.

She's self-made.

-She wasn't born a chaebol. -Exactly.

So she's different.

Anyway, seeing Mr. Jeong used to be our biggest workplace benefit,

but I haven't seen him in a while.

Did he fight with Ms. Do?

-No way. -You think so?

Anyway, it does feel

a bit empty in the office without him.

I agree.

He doesn't do much, but he has such a strong presence.

The theater feels so empty,

although Director Jeong was away all the time

and never spent much time here.

From now on,

you're the executive director of Sunwol Foundation.

EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR PARK BOK-GYU

What's this about? Are you in danger again?

I'm just…

going away for a bit.

I'll leave the foundation to you until I get back.

How long will you be away?

Until Do-hee…

gets her happy ending without me.

Director Jeong.

When are you leaving?

As soon as I'm done here.

I hope you'll find peace

wherever you end up.

I asked myself this question.

"If I had known when to stop,

would I have been able to be happy around you?"

And the answer…

was no.

I would've ended up like this anyway.

I'm not friendly enough to be a human companion.

I would've eventually ended up biting you.

Do you know the story

"The Scorpion and the Frog"?

A scorpion wants to get to the other side of the river,

so it asks a frog to carry it across.

But the frog is afraid that the scorpion might sting it.

So the scorpion says, "Why would I? I'd drown if I killed you."

The frog is convinced and starts carrying the scorpion across.

But the scorpion gets scared by the rough current

and ends up stinging the frog.

The frog asks, "Why did you do that?"

"Both of us are going to die now."

The scorpion answers with a sad look in its eyes,

"I couldn't help it."

"It's just…

my nature."

It was a matter of time before I ended up like this

because this is my nature.

This is who I am.

Yes.

You're right.

We would've…

ended up like this anyway.

Was his love poisonous as well?

If Do Do-hee put this on,

could she remember her past life like I did?

That might change the course of events.

No.

Director Jeong always warned me about my big mouth.

I should stay out of it.

Boss!

Boss!

Hello there.

I was just looking for something.

I'm here to see the boss.

May I ask what this is about?

I have something important to give him.

Something important?

We opened a restaurant.

BLOODY DELICIOUS! SUNNY SPOT RICE SOUP

"Sunny Spot Rice Soup"?

Yes.

We finally get to stand tall before the boss.

-I see. -So where is he now?

Well…

Boss…

Ms. Do.

It's time for lunch.

I'm not hungry. You can go ahead.

You're early.

There's still some time left.

I knew you'd be skipping lunch,

so I came early to eat with you.

I'm not hungry.

Well, I'm famished.

Eat with me, will you?

All right.

What are you so busy with that you're even skipping lunch?

I was reviewing the rebuttal made by the compensation committee.

I have to be thorough, or the board will find fault with it.

It's a piece of cake to come up with false accusations,

but proving the truth is an uphill battle.

Oh, I almost forgot.

I heard your company is going to sign an MOU.

We're signing this week.

You're finally expanding into the American market.

I bet Su-ahn's going to be green with envy.

About Mr. Jeong,

is he really gone?

It's just that our contract expired.

We had agreed to be together just until I caught the culprit,

and he got his tattoo back.

Everything's back to normal, that's all.

Hopefully, this will boost your energy.
