Birth of a Beauty
Episode 5
Geum Ran.
How cold is the ocean water?
My precious daughter.
Announcer Gyo Chae Yun...
marries HBS CEO Lee...
...urgently.
He's getting remarried today?
Oh, my goodness...
How beautiful.
- Right? - How beautiful.
Goodness.
Kyung Joo.
Goodness.
What is this?
What's wrong, Mother?
What is it?
About Geum Ran's suicide?
I got a text.
It says Kang Joon is getting remarried today. With an announcer named Gyo Chae Yun.
It's not the wedding date yet. It's next next week.
You knew, huh?
It's only been three months since Geum Ran died.
Her gravestone is fresh but he's getting remarried?
Did he forget that his wife died?
How can he remarry so quickly?
Did he have a woman already?
Goodness.
He did.
It's this woman, huh?
I didn't tell you...
so you wouldn't get hurt.
Did Geum Ran know?
Did she?
Oh, my.
My daughter.
Poor thing.
How must she have felt?
How painful it must have been.
Geum Ran.
What do I do about my poor daughter?
Huh?
Mother.
All done.
You must've been so lonely after your parents passed away so early.
But now...
you're married so you have new parents now.
Right, Chae Yun?
Yes.
I'm happy, Mother.
Hey, I'll call the assistant to come.
Change into your honeymoon outfit.
My pretty bundle of good fortune.
So pretty.
- Change. - Okay.
Did you bring my high heels?
Chae Yun.
Tae Hee oppa.
Chae Yun, I have something to say.
You can't marry. Absolutely not.
What's wrong?
What is it?
You have to know about Lee Kang Joon first.
Listen to what I tell you.
It might sound inconsistent.
So, I'll get to the point.
Lee Kang Joon...
is a bad guy.
He could even murder you. The worst of the worst.
Yeah.
It must be a shock.
But...
take care of things calmly.
Now that you know who he is,
this marriage...
take it back.
I know how you feel, oppa.
When Father died, you paid for Ji Hoon oppa and my tuition.
I know it wasn't just because Father raised you.
You sold your apartment and sent me to study abroad.
You're so devoted.
How could I not know how you feel?
You want to insult Kang Joon.
Because you like me.
It's not that.
It's not important how I feel about you right now.
You have to know what kind of man Lee Kang Joon is.
Oppa.
I love Kang Joon.
Let go of her.
She's my wife.
You looked at me like this when we first met.
I wondered what it meant.
It was jealousy.
Jealousy?
Chae Yun...
Did you like her?
I don't want to talk to you.
Let me say one thing.
We don't care what you do.
Why?
Because you're nobody.
You're just talking trash about me.
Since you have no other appeal.
- You bastard. - Hyung.
Don't ruin a happy day.
Come here. Come here!
Tae Hee oppa.
Today's my wedding.
Hyung, I don't know what happened.
But don't do this. I beg you.
Please?
Please.
Oppa.
I love Kang Joon.
Come out!
Where is he, huh?
Come out!
Mom?
Where is Kang Joon? Huh?
Come out here.
Remarriage?
When I put it on my blog, it'll be a hit.
It's supposed to be a secret, but there are always people like her.
Remarriage?
Oh, my.
Kang Joon.
Those annoying people. They actually came.
I think the wedding's over.
Let's try the groom's dressing room.
I ought to...
That woman...
Mom.
Fine.
So, getting water thrown on you wasn't enough?
Fine.
This time I'll use my fists.
I'll show you my fury.
I'll go first this time.
Oh, my!
Goodness!
Do you know how much my hanbok costs?
What are you doing!
Are you insane?
Excuse me!
Ahjusshis!
Come over here!
What?
Mother!
Hey, hey! Let go!
Don't you guys have parents?
Oh, my goodness.
I've never seen such ill-mannered people.
Let go of me!
My chest.
Are you okay?
Run away.
Hurry!
Chae Yun...
Did you like her?
Ahjumma!
Ahjumma, where are you?
Ahjumma.
Doctor.
Hurry!
Oh, this is what's going on?
Great, I was pissed off anyway.
Come here.
Ahjumma, let's go.
Mom.
Goodness.
We almost got in big trouble.
Are you hurt?
No, I'm okay.
If it wasn't for that young lady, we'd be in big trouble.
How is she so strong?
And...
Why did she help us?
Who knows?
She came in suddenly and grabbed him by the neck mercilessly.
Wow. So cool.
But...
That woman...
I think I've seen her before.
Really?
Where?
Not sure...
I think I've seen her.
But where was it?
Am I wrong?
Something to say?
Ahjumma.
Chae Yun got married today.
Lee Kang Joon pissed me off more because he ignored me.
Don't provoke me right now.
Talk next time.
My...
...husband killed me.
Goodness, fine.
Who can compare to you?
What do you want to say?
I'm sorry, Doctor.
For what?
Since Gyo Chae Yun is married,
our plan failed.
You made me a beauty.
But I couldn't live up to it.
I'm really sorry.
What next?
A plane ticket to Cuba.
Flight reservation?
They say Cuba is a paradise for young, hot-blooded men.
I saw it on a TV show.
What's with this nonsense?
What is this suddenly?
You can't get hurt.
Run away.
I only made a reservation because I didn't have money.
You pay for it.
And leave this place.
Really...
Mother-in-law Go Soon Dong.
Father-in-law Lee Jung Shik.
Divorcee Lee Jin Young.
Unemployed bum Lee Min Young.
And murderer...
Lee Kang Joon.
This is the data.
The mother-in-law is deceiving her husband over a man and hidden funds.
Illegal cosmetic surgery. She goes to host bars.
She even gave her boyfriend a $1000 lighter before.
$1000?
The sisters-in-law use a loan shark.
But no one knows.
The elder sister was divorced after gambling.
The younger sister is a member of an illegal pyramid scheme.
The mother-in-law's natural enemy...
is the father-in-law.
The father-in-law is...
...a hulk.
He has an angelic face doing charity work.
But when he gets mad, he hits and throws.
The sisters are afraid of him, too.
The mother-in-law and sisters are experts at talking crap.
They take turns fighting, tricking and being fooled.
I gathered together this family's weaknesses and corruption.
Wow.
But...
what's this?
What happened to me...
What happened to Mom...
I'll pay them back and make them go through it.
And my murderer husband...
will end up...
Prison.
He committed adultery and murder.
He has to be punished.
Doctor, you stay clear.
Since they're married,
you have to give up Gyo Chae Yun.
Give up?
You may have done that while making kimchi.
Not me.
This is data on HBS's Lee Kang Joon.
Lee Kang Joon's stock transaction records.
Organization system, financial reports, collaborating companies, company credit card usage.
I have everything necessary.
It's like the encyclopedia or even Bible on HBS and Lee Kang Joon.
Then...
If we fought with a cold virus until now, we're fighting the ebola virus now.
I can't let Chae Yun live with a murderer.
I must rescue her.
But...
what's this?
I ran a simulation.
The place Lee Kang Joon must go...
Stop.
Prison.
He's a bastard who dared to humiliate a genius like me.
Of course...
he's also an evil guy who killed his wife.
She won't believe me when I tell her how evil Lee Kang Joon is.
We have to get Chae Yun out by revealing his evil deeds.
Yes, Doctor.
So, we're back together again.
That's the case.
We won't fail this time.
Why?
I have a special weapon.
Weapon?
Your weapon is...
designed by me. Made by Han Tae Hee.
Your beauty, right?
You have something more?
Since I fought with beauty,
the plan failed.
We need something more special.
Special?
That's good.
What is it?
Housekeeping.
Housekeeping?
These are all kitchen utensils.
Is this a weapon?
No one in that family can keep a household like me.
I'll use my best skill as a weapon. With housekeeping.
I'm confident.
Okay.
Goethe said this once.
What people do is universal.
Your strongest weapon is being yourself.
I acknowledge.
Amazing.
I like it.
Thank you.
Goodness.
Sara unni.
What brings you here so early?
I left my coat last time I came for the family gathering.
Coat?
She left her coat here.
Hurry up and clean.
What's all this inside?
What is all that?
Sara unni.
There was lots of stuff inside your coat.
That?
That...
24 hours a day...
It's for your skin and body, huh? There were lots of sprays and stuff.
That's how you have such a hot body, right?
Yes, you're right.
I...
made some food.
Wow.
Food.
Come in.
I'll...
handle the inside of the house.
I'll turn the house upside down.
Oh, my.
Wow.
You wouldn't notice if two of us died.
Did you make all this, Sara?
Sara unni's rice cakes were the best, too.
I feel alive after eating prison food all this time.
Prison food?
You little...
Oh, yeah.
Where's my coat?
Upstairs.
Keep eating.
I'll get it.
Okay.
[Registration of pyramid scheme membership]
The youngest bum sister-in-law. Proof of involvement in an illegal pyramid scheme.
[IOU]
Gambling addict older sister-in-law.
Proof of loan shark usage.
[Photo library]
Mother-in-law...
proof of her affair.
Sent to...
Father-in-law.
The bride and groom...
listening device...
One of my earrings left...
to cause a fight.
The scent of coffee...
Hey.
I couldn't even eat because of you two.
Mom, stop with the nonsense. You have chicken breast stuck in your teeth.
I've never met anyone who cooks as well as Geum Ran.
Why are you bringing her up? It's unlucky.
Don't mess up in front of Chae Yun.
Erase Geum Ran from your memory.
Okay?
I'm so full.
Oh, my goodness.
You already did all the dishes?
Look at the gleaming dishes.
The rice will slide right off.
How did you do the dishes?
I mix baking powder with dish detergent and rinsed with lukewarm water at the end.
The dishes shine then.
Sara, you're amazing.
How does a young woman know such things?
I'm sure Gyo Chae Yun will be even better.
Of course. Chae Yun will be great.
Sara, I'm saying this since you know about our family.
I'm so satisfied that we got a new daughter-in-law.
Our former daughter-in-law was so shabby.
It was embarrassing being seen together.
I'm so happy I got a new daughter-in-law.
But Mother...
daughter-in-laws aren't batteries...
...to replace.
Huh?
You must have been shocked.
Since I called you Mother.
Is it okay to call you that?
"Madam" feels so distant.
Of course.
Do as you like, Sara.
Where's your mother?
Go Soon Dong.
Go Soon Dong!
That's my husband's voice.
Dad!
What's wrong?
Did you mess up, Mom?
"With Dae Pyung."
Who's Dae Pyung?
Your mom and this guy kissed!
Someone sent this to me.
The school principal.
I told you to take it easy, Mom.
What?
Wanna die?
Oh, my!
Save me!
Honey, honey, honey.
Honey, honey, it's photoshopped.
- Come here! - Calm down.
Sara's here.
Representative.
Hello.
Hi.
I'll be...
going then.
Okay.
Oh.
But...
in my coat,
I found this.
But it's not mine.
What's that?
IOU?
IOU.
IOU...
$3...
$32,000 Lee Jin Young?
You used my car as collateral?
Oh, my. How did that get there?
I can explain.
Your father worries about the country
and do charity work for the citizens.
But my daughter borrows from a loan shark?
You little...
Father.
I'll explain.
$10,000 was because of Min Young.
Min Young got involved in an illegal pyramid scheme, so I had to buy products.
What?
I don't need to reveal the illegal pyramid.
I knew she'd tell to save herself.
Constipation.
Oh, my constipation's killing me.
Hey, hey, hey!
Stop!
I'll be going.
Good-bye.
Go stand there!
Attention.
At ease.
Attention!
Yes.
The old woman's awake. Go downstairs and eat.
Is it in the papers again?
[I'm looking for Dong Geul.]
She's advertising in the main papers everyday.
Who put out the ad under what situation...
There's no contact number.
Or any information.
It's just that one line.
"I'm looking for Dong Geul."
While you handle Kang Joon's household,
I'll take over the outside.
His position as CEO of HBS,
reputation and wealth...
I'll take it all and leave him with the shreds.
You're nobody.
That moron.
Lee Kang Joon.
You thrust a finger up a sleeping lion's nose.
I'll give you a taste of harsh medicine.
Grandmother, you slept in. You must've had a drink last night.
Did you have fun meeting your friends?
What fun?
Why do old people insult others so much?
They have a problem with everything.
All they did was talk crap. I insulted them all and left at the end.
Grandmother.
Oh, yeah.
I want to show you something.
"I'm looking for Dong Geul."
Who put out this ad?
Dong Geul was Dong Won's nickname.
It felt a little weird.
It has...
nothing to do with us, right?
I put out the ad.
You, Grandmother?
Why suddenly?
Dong Won died.
In a Winner Group chemical factory explosion.
The whole nation knows about that tragic accident.
My father, Dong Won, employees...
Many people died.
It's painful.
Isn't it best not to bring it up?
If the employees have done something wrong, tell me.
I'll take care of it.
Mong Shil's vomit contained rat poison.
I sent it to Doctor Jung and looked into it.
Mother.
Goodness, Mother.
Is that true?
My dog was poisoned to death in my own house. Couldn't the same happen to me?
I'm going to find a guy who at least resembles Dong Won and use him as a bodyguard.
I need someone totally on my side.
So, I can sleep at night.
The ad looking for Dong Geul...
I didn't just place it in the papers.
This realistic setting.
I'm so perfectly prepared for everything.
Lee Kang Joon.
You dug it out thinking it was a marble. But it was the eye of an alligator.
You'll get bitten by an alligator, you jerk.
Hack into Winner Group's intranet and get into Lee Kang Joon's desktop.
Put a virus...
into Lee Kang Joon's email.
I'm sending a wedding card.
Winner Group?
To all employees at HBS.
Jeez, because of that jerk Lee Kang Joon.
Look how enlarged my pores got from stress.
How annoying.
When he gets back from his honeymoon,
I'll stamp my fist into his face.
Just wait 'til you get back.
Done.
Hello. Yes.
"I'm looking for Dong Geul."
Here, Dong Geul.
Bread.
Bread?
It's my birthday present.
Grandma.
Your nickname is Dong Geul meaning "round", so this bread is enough.
Right?
[I'm looking for Dong Geul.]
Damn it.
We both were at fault, why is he hitting and running?
Hey!
Come back here.
Hey, jerk. Who do you think you are!
Hey.
He's Director Han of Strategic Planning.
He'll become the Chairman of Winner Group.
In his place,
I'll apologize.
[I'm looking for Dong Geul.]
Why is...
Grandma looking for me?
I'm going to find a guy who at least resembles Dong Won and use him as a bodyguard.
Min Hyuk.
Did you see?
She wants us to see...
she's looking for her grandson.
That ad.
Who becomes a dragon and who becomes a python?
I was curious all my life.
I wanted to become the dragon.
But Grandmother is confirming...
that will never be.
She never called us once until I was 15.
After her children all died, she called us to live with her.
I was never acknowledged even living with her.
A mistress's child...
is forever that.
That's all.
Never until now...
has she ever treated me like a daughter-in-law.
Always calling me Assistant Son, your father's assistant mistress!
Even you, my son...
she never accepted you in her heart.
Being the kind grandson I never was...
Pretending to be the dumb daughter-in-law...
Let's stop now.
I'm...
not afraid.
We've...
prepared for a long time.
Come in.
Move the shareholder meeting up.
Check on Winner Group's secret assistant department info.
So, we can reveal it when needed.
And...
prepare an official event.
Tell the media...
Winner Group's next leader
Han Min Hyuk will appear.
Yes, sir.
We got involved with an annoying guy.
But the important thing is...
the foundation has been well-laid for Lee Kang Joon's destruction.
Finally, the newlyweds are returning tomorrow.
They'll return happily, huh?
We have to welcome them back.
We who have been hit from all sides...
What we've hoped for all this time...
The start of our revenge begins with that!
I'm...
already warming up my fist.
Hot!
Good, ahjumma!
Murderer husband.
Strong slap to the face!
Hot!
The jerk who stole Chae Yun. Killer blow!
Chae Yun.
Kang Joon.
- Did you have fun? - Yes.
Wow, your popularity is amazing. Look at all this.
Gyo Chae Yun, why did you get married so quickly?
Was there a reason? Tell us.
Why didn't you announce it?
Are you expecting?
We just wanted to celebrate quietly.
Please be understanding.
Sorry for not announcing it.
We'll live happily.
Are you expecting?
I have a bad feeling about the broken doll.
It's just a doll.
I'll buy you a new one.
We can't buy it. It was blessed by a shaman in Bali.
He said it was a symbol of our love.
I have a bad feeling.
Chae Yun.
Feelings are just feelings.
Okay?
What happened?
The newlyweds have arrived.
For now, they entered the house smiling brightly.
Of course they'd smile right now.
Now, let's hear what's going on in their room.
Here we go.
We're home.
Raise them higher!
Father.
Welcome back.
Something happened while you were gone.
The family is in a bad state.
Wash up and rest.
Hey, hey, hey.
Raise them.
Honey.
Honey, honey, don't let me lose face in front of my daughter-in-law, okay?
Is that why you kissed your elementary school classmate?
You can cut around the rotten part of an apple.
But you can't cut away a person's rotten mind.
Raise your arms!
But it's still our first day back.
It's too much.
Our mood is ruined, too.
Father has a bad temper.
You should know.
Sorry, okay?
Okay.
According to the audio surveillance, the newlyweds have entered the house.
The father-in-law threw a fit.
But no one is cooking.
Five seconds until disaster.
Then...
the queen of housekeeping should dispatch.
Absolutely necessary in order to slap the murderer's face.
You're not going to cook?
Everyone's being punished.
It's my first day at my in-laws.
If I cook today, I'll have to do it 365 days a year.
I have to set it up right.
Kang Joon.
Sister-in-law.
It's resolved.
Everything's resolved.
Father isn't punishing us anymore.
Dinner's resolved, too.
What happened?
Sara resolved everything.
Sara?
Since the newlyweds are home, I made shinsulro and goojulpan.
Goodness, how special.
- Oh, my. - Thank you.
Kang Joon, come here.
Father.
What's going on?
Sara is opening a restaurant.
She's a chef.
That's why she cooked so well.
Thankfully, she's going to give them jobs.
They were exchanging greetings.
Thanks to that, we're not being punished anymore.
Thanks.
She gave...
...them jobs?
We need to hire employees anyway.
They want to learn how to cook.
I'm going to teach them.
In this house.
What are you up to?
Why are you visiting my house?
For what reason?
Murderer husband.
Strong slap to the face!
Good job, ahjumma.
How satisfying.
My headache disappeared and my head is clear.
Lee Kang Joon.
Are you insane?
You grabbed my arm so hard you scared me.
I thought you were a thug.
What are you thinking?
Why are you in and out of my house?
Should I lie?
Or tell the truth?
Of course, the truth.
Lee Kang Joon, Gyo Chae Yun.
I'm going to make you divorce.
In three weeks.
That's my resolution.
Avoid it if you can.
I'll be going.
After I found out about your affair,
until I died,
it took three weeks.
See what it's like.
Feel the pain of a family torn apart.
Forbid her to enter this house.
Father is insisting because Min Young and Jin Young got jobs.
Tell them honestly.
Sara is actually someone you had an affair with.
Chae Yun.
Lee Kang Joon called her.
Chae Yun, counterattack.
Why can't you?
Lee Kang Joon.
How can I tell Father that?
Chae Yun.
Shall I then?
Lee Kang Joon.
That woman...
she's jealous because she's obsessed with me.
Stop. I didn't get any sleep.
Who did?
So, let's stop.
Kang Joon, what is this?
Your wedding card is full of viruses.
The computer is broken.
What?
Oppa.
What did you send?
My tablet's broken.
Jeez.
I never sent a card.
Now...
it's your turn, Doctor.
Of course.
Han Tae Hee?
Damn it!
My computer's down because of your explosive email.
You did it on purpose, huh?
Damn it...
Ugh.
I have to fix my computer.
See you.
Ah...
I didn't do it on purpose because you insulted me at your wedding.
Don't misunderstand.
One step closer to jail.
Next.
Wow.
Are we working here now?
It's so nice.
When is the opening, Sara unni?
Next week.
I see.
Is this your restaurant, Sara?
I'm not the owner.
I'm the chef and general manager.
I see.
Thanks for giving us jobs, Sara.
I love my workplace.
You're an angel who saved us, Sara unni.
Angel?
Not angel. Your pig sister-in-law has returned after surviving hell.
What shall we start with?
Where's the kitchen?
Start with cleaning.
Bathroom cleaning.
The restaurant was closed for awhile.
The toilet is crusted over with dirt.
Scrape it off with your hands.
This is vinegar.
Mix it with salt and clean the floors until they squeak.
We have to get rid of the mildew odor.
What is all this?
The shareholder meeting material is gone.
What are you doing to me!
You won't believe me but...
I didn't do it.
We have five days until the meeting.
Replace all of it.
Yes, Director.
Kang Joon.
Let's do well, okay?
An earring?
It's not mine.
Kang Joon.
Where are you?
The virus is making things difficult.
Earring?
It's Sara's.
Did you...
let that woman in our room?
That's impossible.
Why are you doing this?
I'm hanging up.
We'll talk at home.
Kang Joon!
Kang Joon.
When are you coming home?
You can't come home?
You're staying overnight?
It's not staying out. I have no choice!
Sara's earring is in our bed. It's our second day of marriage...
but you're not coming home?
Alright.
Alright!
Ahjumma, what happened?
They had a big fight.
Things are going smoothly.
We're making progress.
Ahjumma.
Wanna have a drink to celebrate?
What are you doing?
Go set the table.
Yes, Doctor.
Now, let's take a look.
Our revenge plan is going well.
That's great, right ahjumma?
Let's drink tonight.
And be happy.
It's a relief.
But...
I'm not happy.
Why not?
I...
lost the hope
I'll ever be happy.
I lost it all.
How can I be happy?
Ahjumma, your heart was broken too badly.
Lee Kang Joon did...
too many horrible things to you.
Doctor...
if Gyo Chae Yun gets a divorce,
will you accept her?
Even if she's a divorcee?
I always...
put Chae Yun's happiness first.
If she believes I can make her happy,
I'll gladly.
I see.
Eat this as a snack tomorrow.
Chocolate topped with almonds.
But...
why chocolate suddenly?
Doctor...
I worry about you.
Me?
Why?
When you find out,
the person you love is evil...
and...
when you find out you were fooled,
I know...
...that pain.
You loving Gyo Chae Yun...
is like me with my husband.
It's the same.
It's blind.
Doctor...
I'm worried you'll feel the...
same pain as me.
I wish you wouldn't feel...
that kind of pain.
That...
is really hard to endure.
Dark chocolate almonds are good for relieving stress.
Eat it regularly to prevent heart break.
Wait...
Why does she look pretty?
If you think you'll drink too much, have a sip of milk.
What's with me?
She's not wearing a dress.
She's not doing kamasutra.
But why?
Why does ahjumma look pretty to me?
[Birth of a Beauty]
This woman is fake. Come to your senses.
It's thrilling.
She's just a tool to get to Chae Yun.
Why do I keep having feelings for her?
I'm excited.
A witch who throws a genius into confusion.
I'll throw myself at him.
This is a dream.
Fighting.
Please just go.
Don't you want to become a legend in revenge?
It has nothing to do with you now, Doctor.
Let's repay them the same way.
The murdered ex-wife becomes a charismatic mistress.
Let's get them divorced.
Kang Joon, I want to meet you again.
Why are you doing this?
Come to me anytime.
I feel like I'm in Sa Geum Ran's shoes. What is this dirty feeling?
I was fooled by that man, too.
Kang Joon.
Sara.
You told me to come whenever I'm struggling.
You professional habitual playboy!
Lee Kang Joon, this is the worst day of your life.
