Do Jun told me to drop you off...
safe and sound.
When you get there,
you'll see Do Jun's employees from Miracle waiting for you.
I guess you'll be away for quite a while.
No one at Jeongsimjae seemed to know about it.
Why didn't you tell them?
Do Jun told me everything.
Mother, I have to say...
You scare me.
Your Soonyang Insurance shares...
I heard you handed them over to Do Jun.
From the day my birth mother...
brought me to Jeongsimjae to this very moment,
I have always...
felt uncomfortable around you and found you inaccessible.
You see,
I've done my very best to take good care of you.
I treated you just like I treated my own children.
I always bought you nice clothes and fed you good food.
But with your eyes, you always told me this.
"If you have a conscience, you should not forget my kindness."
"So don't you dare dream of succeeding the throne at Soonyang."
All my life,
I've lived as if I was protesting against you, Mother.
Going against Father's wishes and studying films.
Marrying someone you and Father disapproved of. All of it.
But it turns out,
I'm even worse than you.
The cruel bunch who can do anything for their children.
I suppose all parents are like that after all, Mother.
Now that I've become one of such parents,
I can truly understand...
how hurt you must've been by my existence...
in and of itself, every single moment.
Mother,
I respect you for enduring it all through these years.
Regarding Lee Pil Ok's borrowed-name account,
we found out that there was a large transaction recently.
The Soonyang Insurance shares she had purchased...
Here. She's transferred them to Jin Do Jun.
Ma'am.
Lee Pil Ok isn't in the country.
- What? - She already left the country.
I confirmed it with Immigration just now.
Darn it.
It was you, wasn't it?
Your grandmother.
Lee Pil Ok, the prime suspect in the proxy murder case.
You helped her flee the country.
Did you cut a deal with her?
Because of her Soonyang Insurance shares?
I tried so hard to catch her,
yet you cut a deal with her.
You, of all people,
know why I wanted to catch her so much.
You've got nothing to say, right?
Just this once. We're almost there, Min Yeong.
It'll all be over once I'm appointed CEO.
I won't let you down anymore.
You're wrong.
You'll become even more spiteful.
Because you'd want to keep what you have.
Hyeon Min.
You said you wanted to live like Grandmother...
from now on.
You knew everything about her,
but you still said that to me.
What did you mean by that?
Are you going to kill me or something?
I could.
If you...
get in the way of that baby...
becoming the owner of Soonyang, that is.
I don't care who it is.
I can do anything.
Just like your grandmother.
So you'd better get your act together.
It starts with you.
Are you anxious?
Since we're going all in,
one ace card won't do.
Then what?
Don't worry.
I'm holding the Joker in this round.
Next, we'll discuss the appointment...
of the CEO of Soonyang Financial Holding Company.
The board of directors recommended...
Mr. Lee Hang Jae.
Mr. Jin Do Jun is another candidate.
All right. We'll vote to decide.
Is everyone ready?
He lashed out at Chairman Jin in the hospital room?
- Was it the shock that killed him? - Is this true?
This certainly disqualifies Jin Do Jun for the position.
Is this really true?
We need an explanation.
- Explain this. - Everyone, let's not vote.
To bring order back to this room so that we can proceed...
I hereby exercise my authority as the chairperson...
and ask Mr. Jin Do Jun to provide an explanation.
Is the content of the text message true?
It is not true.
We don't believe him. Can he prove it with evidence?
How are we supposed to believe him?
Quiet down, please.
Can you prove it?
Yes.
Yes.
There is one way Mr. Jin Do Jun can clear his name.
In the late chairman's room at the hospital,
there was a camera recording everything,
which the hospital staff use to monitor their VIP patients.
Why don't we check the footage here?
Good idea. Let's do that.
Find the footage now.
Please quiet down.
Do you agree to this?
Mr. Jin Do Jun.
That will be...
impossible.
"Impossible?" What do you mean?
The footage is gone.
Mr. Jin Do Jun here ordered me to get rid of it.
Then I can do what I want with it, right?
Please delete the footage.
Something bad must've happened in the room that day.
Otherwise, why would he ask me to delete the footage?
Please be quiet.
It is not true.
Please let me speak.
All right, please quiet down. Let me clear this up.
This is not a courtroom.
However, the leader's sense or lack of morality...
could make or break the future of the company.
The late chairman wished to choose a leader...
who could lead the right way. Take your time...
to think about who would be...
the best person for the role before you vote.
All right, then.
Let's begin.
Mr. Chairman is...
experiencing symptoms of delirium at the moment.
So?
You've decided to join hands with me?
I am now too old and tired to keep on working...
as a mere farmer.
Please give me some shares.
I helped Soonyang grow to what it is today.
I wish to own a plot of land in the company, no matter how small it is.
That painting has surely found its place.
I suppose you liked my gift.
I will now announce the results. Mr. Lee Hang Jae...
has been appointed CEO of Soonyang Financial Holding Company.
Do Jun, have you thought about this?
Would Chairman Jin Yang Cheol have told me...
to delete the security footage?
So after all,
we're the owners of Soonyang Financial Holding Company.
Goodness.
Congratulations.
We jointly own 30 percent of the shares.
Add the CEO's friendly stakes, then we're at 37 percent.
Do Jun is no match for us now.
We used Mr. Lee...
and labeled him as an immoral buffoon...
in front of all the shareholders,
so he'll have to lie low for the time being.
We now have the voting rights in all the subsidiaries...
under the holding company.
My, this is nice.
Right, as long as one of us doesn't betray the other.
Young Ki, no one's got our backs now.
We only have each other.
Right?
Congratulations.
Thank you.
About the shares we discussed the other day...
- Right. - Yes.
My grandfather thought it was just a borrowed-name account...
in your name.
But I suppose you thought the account was yours.
I understand you get crumbs on your hands when handling bread.
Just resign. I'll consider it your severance package.
Or would you rather be on the news as an embezzler?
Was this your plan from the get-go, from the moment...
you offered me the CEO position?
You just needed a knife to get rid of Do Jun?
The family fighting during Grandfather's funeral...
wouldn't be a pretty sight.
My whole life, I was completely dedicated to Soonyang.
I joined the company way before you were even born.
Your grandfather and I grew Soonyang into what it is today.
So why...
Why should I be treated like this? Just why?
I apologize.
I guess you feel deeply wronged.
Are you that desperate to be treated like an owner?
Then you should be born again.
