Blessing of the Sea (The Dragon King Protects / Yongwangnim Bowoohasa / 용왕님 보우하사)

So it all comes down to the "Portrait of a Beauty" again.

Let me ask you one thing.

What if your memory of the portrait isn't correct?

I mean, there are quite a number of those old paintings.

No, I'm sure that's the one.

Do you remember the Yongwang-ri exhibition?

That's when it all began.

It was my first time seeing it, but it seemed awfully familiar.

Is that the portrait?

Are you okay? - Yes.

I knew something was weird.

I...

saw the "Portrait of a Beauty" when I was young.

I'm sure of this memory. It's not wrong.

Yes, if you are that certain,

I'm sure there is a story between you and the portrait.

Right?

If you're looking into the painting to find your past,

I can understand that.

But that's as far as you can go.

Don't look into the Goryeo project.

I do not wish to hear those words...

while I am in this position.

I know you've been through a lot because of that portrait.

But I won't just cover up my sad history like you do.

If I must know something, I'll dig into it and find out.

Even if...

that memory will bring pain and trouble to me.

It's very rude to hang up like that.

I'm sorry. The data suddenly dropped into my arms.

Did you find something?

Yes.

But why do you think these reports are left here?

Those are records of failed attempts.

Records of failures?

That's how they survived in the hands of that dirty Seo Pil Doo.

Everything that looked successful was probably all shredded.

I'm glad to know that you're fine. Get back to work.

Seo Pil Doo is the one who's stopping the Goryeo project.

I can't believe all the huge news we're hearing every day at work.

Exactly. - What's going on?

The culprit who embezzled the contract money was caught.

What? What are you talking about?

Look, they turned themselves in.

"Vice President Seo left last night..."

"after he was finished getting questioned as a witness."

I should take on the moral responsibility...

and resign from my post regarding our recent incident.

However, I cannot ignore the management crisis of Jubo.

Therefore, I, Seo Pil Doo,

will accept the opinion of our shareholders and employees...

to renew myself once again,

and I promise to do my best for the sake of Jubo Group.

I didn't expect him to sacrifice someone else to avoid this.

But he was involved in making that contract too.

That means he cannot avoid responsibility completely.

The problem is that he isn't the core of the matter anymore.

He turned the game around...

so that he cannot be fired from this incident.

Do you think Yeo Ji Na planned this with him?

If they're working together again...

Seo Pil Doo.

I guess you still have a few connections left.

Goodness, should I say that you're good at handling a crisis?

I thought I should settle the situation first...

to minimize any damage to the company.

That's why I held a press conference in a hurry.

I wonder if the misunderstanding is cleared up.

The misunderstanding?

The leader of the Financial Team in our Chinese branch came clean later.

He got scared when he heard about the prosecution investigation.

I trusted him a lot,

so it was very shocking to me too.

I guess he used Ms. Yeo,

who didn't know much about the company's situation.

That's why I misunderstood and thought you were behind it.

Then why did Yeo Ji Na do that during the board meeting?

That has nothing to do with me.

She probably held a grudge against you for reporting her...

as a suspect.

Do I really have to let you go on?

You should probably stop this at this point.

As a chairman, you should also be concerned about our image,

and not just nitpicking over who's right or wrong.

I'm sure you know that our stock price is crashing.

Seo Pil Doo.

You're determined to keep your post?

How can you be sure that Ma Poong Do is colorblind?

How do you think I won his heart when he lost his memory?

It's because I knew a secret...

that he didn't want anyone to find out.

And you have circumstantial evidence.

He always puts on nothing but black clothes.

He did that to cover up his weakness.

I can't work with an assumption.

It could end up becoming a trap.

If you can't trust me, you can always check once again.

I thought you went home.

You should at least eat.

Anyway, Ji Na. Are you all right?

Are you sure you won't have to flee abroad?

I'm not going anywhere.

Don't worry. I won't cave in like this.

You completely deceived the chairman of your company.

How can I not be worried?

I'm going to return to Jubo Group.

What? No, don't do that.

Why would you go back there again?

Stop minding my business and go home for now.

I can't.

What if those people end up hurting you?

And even if I go home, I'm treated like the only traitor.

There are Sim Hak Gyu and Sim Chung Yi who only want you dead,

and there's that frustrating kid, Yeol Mae.

I'd rather stay here.

How's Yeol Mae doing?

The same. She can't say anything.

Why? Are you worried?

I'm just asking because the kid is sick.

And it's not like there's nothing that has to do with me.

Anyway, you should go home and stick next to that kid.

Forget it.

Why should I look after a kid in this situation?

You have to stick next to her and see if she says anything weird.

Sim Chung Yi might find a lead.

I guess so.

She might say something weird...

because of her mother's ghost.

Okay. I'll go home.

Isn't he more tactical than Zhuge Liang?

I'm starting to respect that guy.

He's just covering up the incident.

He's pretty much shortening his life.

He's counterattacking us now.

Is there any way to turn the tables?

The new brand?

That project is still unfinished.

We aren't making the final presentation, but the blueprint.

People on the outside and inside are feeling anxious about Jubo Group.

We need to create a new issue.

Put together everything you've done so far and report it to me.

Yes.

Are you talking about our nature-friendly project?

Don't you think you're making a rash decision?

Why did you set up such a press conference in a hurry?

What if you give people a reason to bash on us?

I took the risk to expose our corruption,

but I didn't get anything out of it.

I only ended up looking less trustworthy to people.

But you shouldn't use the new brand as your shield.

As I said, we're presenting the process, not the result.

Don't feel too burdened.

"Don't worry about Jubo Group. We're still going strong."

That's what I'm trying to say.

I'm sorry for not approving the Goryeo Project.

I don't expect you to let me do this officially,

but please don't stop me from looking into this myself.

You're so stubborn.

Okay.

Anyway,

I have a favor to ask.

Miss, throw out everything that belongs to him, even a sock.

Erase all traces of him from this house.

Okay.

I heard Mr. Seo didn't embezzle the money.

Why are you doing this?

Of course, he did.

He's obviously using shallow tricks.

Mom was so good to him.

How can he plan such a thing with Yeo Ji Na?

What an ungrateful jerk.

Mr. Seo that I know isn't like that.

Mom, what's with you?

Quiet.

And you need to learn to discern people's character.

Don't you dare take his side again in front of me.

My gosh, look at this.

Mom! Do you have to take things so far?

Mom, will you please relax?

If you're going to take his side,

you can ask him to adopt you and become Seo Gwi Nyeo.

I won't stop you.

It's not that.

I mean, there's another thing that you do not know.

What is it?

Yeo Ji Na and Sim Chung Yi are sisters.

You didn't know, did you?

They have different last names. How can they be sisters?

Do they go to the same church?

It's not like that. They really are sisters.

I heard Poong Do say that yesterday.

Does this mean Chung Yi also deceived us?

Sim Chung Yi?

Who on earth is she?

I have a headache.

Hey, can you see my head steaming?

That's the contract for purchasing land for the factory in Yongin.

Please read it over and sign it. We'll go ahead immediately.

Once our new brand is officially launched,

the factory in Yongin will be the main factory.
