When I Was the Most Beautiful (When I Was the Prettiest / Naega Gajang Yebbeotseulddae / 내가 가장 예뻤을때)

It's true that I liked Ms. Oh.

- I know. - But I could hold...

my feelings back...

for you.

You shouldn't have been suspicious.

You should've still trusted me through everything,

not because my feelings didn't matter,

but because you're my brother, because we're family.

We're still family.

I no longer have a brother.

- Hwan. - I haven't had one for a long time,

but I finally realized it.

Hwan.

Isn't this place a bit too small?

I'm glad I didn't get that plant. It would've gotten in the way.

Use that to buy whatever you need.

Thank you.

You have two choices.

You can divorce Jin...

and let the brothers reconcile.

Or...

you can stay with Jin and send Hwan away.

I chose to go with the latter.

I'm already done talking to him.

Without you,

Jin won't be able to hold out.

My deal with Carrie didn't mean anything.

I wasn't cutting you off.

I came up with that strategy to get my hands on her shares.

It sounded like a lame excuse, so I chose not to tell you.

I apologize.

If it hadn't been for you,

I would've given up on Jin long ago.

The U.S. is awfully huge.

And it cost me a fortune to search through a foreign country.

I wanted to give up many times in the process.

But...

I saw you waiting and waiting for him,

and you gave me the strength to go on and be tenacious.

This is the first time...

you complimented me in any way.

I just never said it out loud.

I looked to you as I held out.

I don't know...

what I would've done without you.

Let's not throw away all those years in vain.

Jin needs you.

What about Hwan?

He might be the one...

who's the most troubled right now.

What do you think we should do?

Please tell me.

I've raised Jin myself,

but I stopped looking after Hwan when he was a kid,

so I have no idea what to do.

At this point,

it seems like you know him better than I do.

After all, I was a mother too.

I'm starting to regret the things I've done for my children as I age.

I lived my life in vain.

You should let him know...

how you feel.

I had resented my mom for so long.

But that resentment was my yearning for her.

The world called her a sinner,

but I couldn't accept that.

However, what I saw was different.

I had tormented myself...

and even caused a scene in front of her.

But in the end, I finally realized...

her true self.

Her sincerity.

May I ask...

why she did it?

It was because of me.

She did it to save me.

You have an amazing mother.

She's different from me.

May I ask you...

why you didn't get a divorce?

I'm not sure.

I had moved out and had gotten my own freedom,

but I still didn't want that.

Maybe you still wanted to be tied to him.

Perhaps,

you wanted to come back.

Is it true that Hwan's love...

is unreciprocated?

No matter how much pain Jin has caused you,

you do know that you shouldn't go to Hwan, right?

I do.

It should never happen.

That's good.

Ms. Jung, I'm here to give you an injection.

Those are amiable toward the company.

The red ones are considering it. The blue ones are neutral.

How many of the neutral ones do you think we can persuade?

- Carrie Jung has disappeared. - What do you mean?

She left the hospital without notifying anyone.

Report it to the police and send some men to find her.

- We must find her. - Yes, sir.

Were you working around here?

I came to pick you up.

Soon, I won't be coming here anymore.

Once the project is complete,

we're going to hand it over to another company.

After that, I'm flying out.

If this is because of Mother, you don't need to do that.

You don't have to leave when I'm leaving as well.

This has nothing to do with you.

I have my own life to live.

Good work.

I would've dissuaded you if you were leaving because of me.

But if it's for your own good,

I won't stop you.

I'd like to have a meal with you...

at a nice place.

Come to think of it,

I haven't treated you once after making my own money.

We've always eaten together at home.

Not like that.

I want us to go to a luxurious restaurant...

in nice attire.

I want that.

I want to have...

a meal with you.

Okay.

Let's do that.

It's nothing hard.

Why would I refuse when you're buying?

I'm going to have a course meal.

You can order the most expensive dishes.

Right. Can we stop by somewhere...

before going home?

I won't ever forget this place.

Our house.

The workshop.

This neighborhood.

Jeju Island.

Jin was in all those places.

But here...

It's just us two.

But you were in pain.

It's okay.

Even the painful memories...

are precious.

After some time...

When we can finally look back and reminisce...

Will the day come...

when we will all be okay?

Before I returned back to Korea...

When you had ignored all my texts, calls, and mails...

during those three years,

did you ever think of me?

Of course.

We didn't part ways happily.

Perhaps, that could've been why I had thought of you more.

I told myself not to call you.

I forced myself not to.

But doing that made me think of you even more.

That's what happened.

What about my letter?

Did you read it?

No.

Did you throw it away...

without reading it even once?

I'm sorry.

Once I go back to the U.S...

Once we part ways,

there will be no reason for us to stay in touch, will there?

I haven't thought that far.

But...

if I were to stay in touch with you...

but not with Jin,

it would be strange.

Carrie Jung is still missing,

but we've received something under her name,

saying that she's going to withdraw the delegation.

This was exactly why I put such a high penalty fee.

Chairman Bang will probably pay for it.

Why did you have to make a deal with her and complicate everything?

Don't you know who's responsible for all of this?

Had you not been involved with her...

I told you not to accept any investment from others.

It was your greed that caused this.

You're going to blame it all on me?

You two need to work together.

Arguing won't solve anything.

I don't know what Carrie's trying to do.

If Chairman Bang has taken her against her will,

I could negotiate with him.

What if she disappeared on her own?

Then she's spitting in our faces.

If we let go of her shares,

how much do we have in total?

You shouldn't give up just yet.

If we persuade the neutral parties,

we can gain more shares.

Then things will get easier.

First, the artists shouldn't already have their own workspace.
