ep. 31
While Jin-a is getting her appendix removed, Se-yeong is worried sick and prays
desperately. Sang-jin is moved by Se-yeong’s devotion and Geon-wu is also moved
by her love as well. Seo-gyeong despairs because she can’t do anything to help
when she is the real mother and she becomes angry about her situation.
Tae-hee packs a lunch to eat with Sang-jin and makes the nurses at the hospital
who are interested in Sang-jin jealous. So-young continues to follow Seo-gyeong
and Geon-wu around. She even follows them to the hospital where Jin-a is
undergoing the surgery and watches as Seo-gyeong and Geon-wu talk together at
the hospital coffee shop. To confirm that Geon-wu and Seo-gyeong are having an
affair and to secure the evidence, she follows Geon-wu to the pediatric ward where
he works and spies on him.
Meanwhile Gyeong-sun calls Seo-gyeong and asks her if she is Yoon Seo-gyeong.
ep. 32
After confirming that the phone number she found is Seo-gyeong’s, Gyeong-sun
realizes that Geon-wu is still involved with her and starts to worry. Geon-wu takes
Jin-a out for a walk so that Seo-gyeong can see her and Se-yeong wonders why
Seo-gyeong is hanging around Jin-a.
So-young sends a doll to Jin-a and Se-yeoung starts to wonder who sent it
because no one she knew has sent the doll. She suddenly remembers Seo-gyeong
and the fact that she came to Jin-a’s piano recital and has a bad feeling. Gyeong-
sun interrogates Sang-jin about Geon-wu and whether he is having an affair. Sang-
jin adamantly denies this.
Tae-hyeon starts to suspect something when he comes upon Seo-gyeong’s
speeding ticket from Yangpyeong. He remembers how So-young insisted that Seo-
gyeong is having an affair.
ep. 33
Se-yeong asks Gyeong-sun about Jin-a’s birth mother and tells her how her chest
tightens as if she feels something bad is going to happen whenever she thinks
about it. Gyeong-sun tells her that Geon-wu is as silent and undemonstrative as his
father was when Se-yeong tells her that she feels as if Geon-wu’s body is with her
but his mind and heart are elsewhere. Gyeong-sun tells her not to mention Jin-a’s
birth mother anymore.
After So-young sees Seo-gyeong with Geon-wu, she calls Tae-hyeon and informs
him that Seo-gyeong is with another man. Tae-hyeon is shocked and catches a cab
to confront her but by the time he gets there, they have left already. Tae-hyeon tells
So-young to stop playing pranks on him and doesn’t believe anything she says
anymore.
While having a drink with her husband one late night, Se-yeong bursts into tears
saying that she thinks Geon-wu still has feelings for Jin-a’s birth mother.
ep. 34
Tae-hyeon follows Seo-gyeong as she leaves work. He smiles as he watches her
laughing and talking with her female colleagues. But when he sees her leave the
gym and get into Geon-wu’s car, kissing him passionately, he is devastated. He
cries silently in despair as he follows Geon-wu and Seo-gyeong.
Ji-wook pushes Jin-a’s wheelchair when she is discharged from the hospital and
goes to a museum with Jin-a and Se-yeong. Bong-dal visits Jeong-suk’s jewelry
store to buy a present for Mal-ja when he hears that one of the workers at his site
was badly hurt. He calls Tae-hyeon but Tae-hyeon doesn’t hear the ringing of his
cell-phone while he agonizes about his wife and her affair.
Feeling insecure, Se-yeong goes through her husband’s drawers. Her mother-in-
law catches her in the act and tells her that she is only feeling like that because
she is too tired and that she should trust Geon-wu.
ep. 35
Se-yeong cries as she tells Gyeong-sun that not having a child is bearable but that
she won’t be able to bear it if Jin-a’s birth mother came and took her away. Gyeong-
sun assures her that Jin-a is Se-yeong’s child no matter what and that would never
happen. But she knows about the affair between Geon-wu and Seo-gyeong and
secretly worries.
Seo-gyeong prepares a present for Geon-wu to celebrate their 13th anniversary.
She gives it to him on their date. They both remember the day they first met and long
to turn back the hands of time. Tae-hyeon is spying on them from afar, full of anger
and jealousy. So-young is also there. She slashes the tires of Geon-wu’s car and
is about to do the same to Seo-gyeong’s car when she sees Tae-hyeon.
Tae-hyeon comes home late that night, drunk. He hugs Seo-gyeong and Seo-
gyeong is swept with guilt and remorse.
