The Secret of My Love (내 남자의 비밀)

Mom.

How...

How could this be?

It's too dangerous to make conclusions based on photographs.

We need to approach this carefully,

and look for definitive proof.

Of course, Dad.

There couldn't be...

any more definitive proof than this.

You were Yuh Rim?

Are you really Yuh Rim?

When I talked to her,

I realized that there were too many similarities with Yuh Rim.

I was afraid you'd be disappointed,

so I ran the test without telling you first, Mom.

Then what... What about the DNA test that I ran before?

Actually, my friends...

often stayed with me at my apartment.

I think you may have taken one of my friends' hair.

Is that what happened?

So that's what happened.

That's right. Your friend. So that's what happened.

Yuh Rim. - Mom.

Mom. - Yuh Rim.

Mom.

Madam. The errand lady is here.

I called her.

I wanted to congratulate you and Mi Ryung...

I mean, Yuh Rim. I wanted to give you flowers,

so I called her.

Hello. I brought the flowers.

Look. I found my daughter.

Mi Ryung was my daughter.

Pardon?

Please congratulate me. She's my mom.

I've finally found my mom.

Mom. - Yuh Rim.

You did? I'm so happy for you.

I'm very happy for you.

You must be so happy.

Thank you.

These are the best flowers to get on my best day ever.

Now that I look at you, you do look alike.

Do we?

You were Yuh Rim?

I'm truly shocked and speechless.

I'm sorry, Dad.

I'm not a daughter you could be proud of.

Will you keep standing there?

You should go now if you finished your delivery.

Yes, okay. Then I'll go now.

Mom. - Yuh Rim.

Mom. - Yuh Rim.

Mom. - Yuh Rim.

Why are you eating while standing?

Hi. I didn't finish cleaning,

so I'm just eating something quick. It's okay.

What's wrong? Do you feel sorry for me to eat while standing?

It's okay. It's good to eat while standing once in a while.

You can eat quickly, and it helps you digest.

Mom. Thank you so much...

for raising me like this...

and cherishing me so much.

Goodness.

Why are you thanking me?

It's only natural for a parent to raise and cherish their child.

Gosh, if we had supported you a little better,

our smart daughter would be flying high...

and living so well right now.

I'm so glad...

that you're my mom.

I'm so glad.

Hey, I just ate.

You'll drain my energy away by crying your eyes out.

What's wrong? What happened?

Nothing. Nothing happened.

Just let me hold you like this...

for a short moment.

Goodness.

What's gotten into my daughter?

Fine. I'll count to 100.

You can stay like this if you want.

I don't understand how this could've happened.

How could someone that low be my child Yuh Rim?

At first, I didn't want to accept it either.

But after seeing the DNA test results,

I had no other choice.

What will people think of me?

How could Jae Wook's mistress be my biological child?

What if the word gets out?

It may hurt my political career.

You know how the political world is.

They bite and attack at any sign of weakness.

I know. I think it would be best to keep it a secret for now.

We must obviously do that.

But Mi Ryung is the problem.

I'm sure she'll understand if you make it clear to her.

I'll guard Yuh Rim so that she can't leave home...

for the time being.

That's what happened?

Then Hae Rim didn't abandon you?

No. I can't remember very well, but that's right.

Hae Rim didn't abandon me.

I let go of her hand and got lost.

Then I got hit by a bicycle.

Then I lost my memory...

and got lost.

Do you remember being burned by hot instant noodles then?

Vaguely.

Hae Rim cooked the noodles, and it fell on me.

I remember that you yelled at her a lot about it.

That's right, Yuh Rim.

Yuh Rim.

I can't believe that I've met you again like this.

This feels like a dream.

Mom. I feel the same.

I can't believe the fact that I have a mom...

and that I have met her again like this.

This feels like a dream I never want to awake from.

Mom.

Mom.

Yuh Rim.

Let me look at you.

What happened with Suh Ra's photos that you took?

I checked, but it wasn't her.

Right? I figured. With her luck?

Find her parents? No way.

Her luck must not be with finding her parents but with finding a job.

Pardon? What do you mean?

Did you know that Suh Ra will be working at our company?

What? That's absurd.

She took the GEDs. How could she work for a large corporation?

This is absurd.

Then why don't you do it instead?

Sorry? Me?

Suh Ra will be working with our company...

with your mother's recipe anyway.

I think...

you belong there, rather than Suh Ra.

Suh Ra isn't even her real child.

Me?

Why? You don't think you can do it?

Why not? I graduated college...

in Seoul...

and studied English in Canada.

See? From our company's perspective,

it's much better to have you, who has experience living abroad.

Slow down.

I don't want people saying that you got sick after eating our food.

I need to say something. That's why I feel rushed.

They say men can't do two things at once. I guess that's true.

You can talk while eating.

Let your mouth speak for a minute then.

Gosh. You're so smart.

I came to the right place indeed.

What?

We need smart people desperately.

Ms. Ki Suh Ra, start coming to work tomorrow.

Sorry? Work?

Me? - Yes.

Work with us to develop the new product with your mother's recipe...

starting tomorrow.

Don't try to refuse, and say, "Yes."

Oh, my gosh. That's so great.

Suh Ra is more than capable.

She knows our jjamppong just as much as...

No, she knows it better than I do. She's perfect.

We should work with you, but we feel bad...

to make you come to the office every day,

and we need someone there every day to work on the product.

Of course. Of course. I agree with you no matter what.

Do you really think I can do it?

Why not? You're a good cook, smart, and hard-working...

Close down that tiring errand service...

and work at the company. You can do it.

I'm so tired.

Good work.

You almost had me fooled too.

Hae Rim.

You really are a monster.

But then again, I knew ever since...

you threw me into the reservoir and didn't bat an eye.

Watch what you say.

You and I are accomplices now.

If either of us gets caught, we're both dead.

Me? Why?

I'm done with you once Jae Wook wakes up.

That's why you need to last until then without getting caught.

If you or I get caught,

we'll both be kicked out of this house.

Don't make me laugh.

I have nothing to lose.

But you might have a lot to lose.

What are you doing?

Yuh Rim.

You may not have anything to lose,

but if you stay as Yuh Rim,

you'll gain quite a lot.

You're Jin Yuh Rim, the daughter of a promising...

Presidential candidate and a powerful, wealthy family.
