00:00The pregnant woman, Ha-yung, was beaten by her husband, Tae-jin, causing her to miscarry.
00:05Her mother-in-law, Jung-sook, was no better, taking every opportunity to abuse her as well.
00:11Ha-yung had endured this heartless treatment for seven years, but she was no longer willing to
00:16tolerate it. She wanted Jung-sook and Tae-jin to pay dearly. Ha-yung had once been a famous
00:22television host with a bright future. After marrying Tae-jin, she gave up her career to
00:28dedicate herself to his family. But life in a wealthy household wasn't as simple as she had
00:33imagined. From the start, Jung-sook looked down on her poor daughter-in-law, believing Ha-yung had only
00:39seduced her son for their money. She constantly made things difficult for Ha-yung. Every night,
00:45Ha-yung was required to prepare a cup of hot tea and personally deliver it to Jung-sook in bed,
00:50wishing her good night before she could retire. This was a house rule. Furthermore, before going
00:56to sleep, Jung-sook would dictate her breakfast order for the following morning. Having chosen a
01:01wealthy husband, Ha-yung felt she had to swallow her bitterness. To procure the fresh fish Jung-sook
01:07favored, Ha-yung would set her alarm for 4am. She'd rush to a fish market in another city to select
01:14the freshest catch. Upon returning home, she couldn't even ask the household staff for help.
01:19She had to clean and prepare the fish herself before serving it. Despite all this, Jung-sook considered it
01:25her due. A daughter-in-law was there to serve. Ti-jin was even worse, a completely different person
01:32from the man who had courted her. He rarely came home at night, and when he did, he was usually
01:37drunk. Ha-yung not only had to pretend everything was fine, but also prepare his clothes and tie for
01:44work the next morning, waking him up in the process. When Ha-yung questioned his treatment of her,
01:49Ti-jin simply said his previous wives had endured the same and told her to get used to it.
01:54Distressed, Ha-yung sought solace in Jung-sook, but her mother-in-law tacitly approved of her son's
02:00behavior, accusing Ha-yung of being troublesome. Jung-sook deliberately avoided utilizing the
02:07dozens of household staff, forcing Ha-yung to do all the cleaning herself. Still, Ha-yung persevered,
02:13only secretly venting her frustrations into a cup when she couldn't bear it any longer.
02:19Ha-yung endured all of this for her two beloved children. Though she was burdened with serving her
02:24in-laws and managing her children's schooling and transportation, she found joy in it. In that
02:29heartless household, her children were her only solace. Then, the unexpected happened. Ti-jin,
02:36influenced by Jung-sook, decided to run for office. To cultivate a positive image, he invited the media
02:42for an interview, even demanding Ha-yung bring their daughter along. Ha-yung knew Ti-jin's true character.
02:49She didn't want to participate, but she had no choice. Upon learning the interviewer was her
02:54sister-in-law's brother, she called her sister-in-law, asking her to keep the children
02:59out of the camera's focus. Given the political nature of the interview, she worried about
03:04unforeseen risks to her children. To her dismay, her sister-in-law scoffed, typical of someone who
03:10married into wealth, only remembering to call when they need something. She was filled with resentment.
03:16Feeling guilty, Ha-yung used the pretense of buying groceries to visit her own mother.
03:22Jung-sook, looking down on Ha-yung's family and fearing embarrassment, had forbidden her from
03:27contacting her mother after the marriage. Ha-yung's mother knew she had two adorable grandchildren,
03:33but she'd never met them. Ha-yung could only show her pictures on her phone to ease her longing.
03:39On the day of the interview, despite her sister-in-law's promise, Ti-jin, eager to showcase his family
03:44devotion to the reporters, displayed pictures of the children to the media without consulting
03:49Ha-yung. This was the final straw. Ha-yung's resentment over the past seven years of mistreatment
03:56boiled over. She had endured everything to protect her children, but Ti-jin had gone too far. She
04:02decided she would suffer no more. Just as Ha-yung was plotting her revenge, an opportunity for escape
04:08presented itself. Unexpectedly, her father-in-law, Man-ho, summoned her for a private meeting.
04:15He instructed her to hand over her household duties and assume the position of CEO at the
04:19family company. Man-ho had always sensed that his daughter-in-law was more than met the eye.
04:25He had witnessed her years of endurance and sacrifice. With his foolish son pursuing a political career,
04:31Man-ho wanted Ha-yung to establish herself in the business world to support Ti-jin's ambitions.
04:37Ha-yung couldn't pass up such an opportunity. Without hesitation, she agreed to Man-ho's proposal.
04:44She began to meticulously plan her takeover of the company, preparing to repay Jung-sook and Ti-jin
04:49for all the humiliation she had suffered. To demonstrate his respect for Ha-yung,
04:54Man-ho gathered all the senior executives to welcome her as the new CEO. When discussing compensation,
05:01Ha-yung requested company shares. Only with ownership could she gradually seize control
05:06and fulfill her plan for revenge. Far from being angered, Man-ho was delighted by Ha-yung's
05:12ambition. He admired her courage and resolve. However, to test her abilities, he decided to
05:18put her in charge of a hotel first. If she succeeded, shares and other rewards would follow.
05:24Finally, Ha-yung stepped into her own office. For the first time in seven years, she felt free from
05:30the hell she had endured. Meanwhile, Jung-sook remained unaware of Ha-yung's promotion.
05:36Arrogant as ever, she ran into Ti-jin's ex-wife. When the ex-wife failed to greet her, Jung-sook
05:42flew into a rage, berating her for disrespect. She insisted that even after the divorce, the ex-wife
05:49was still obligated to acknowledge her, citing family tradition. Unintimidated, the ex-wife retorted
05:55that Jung-sook was senile and walked away, leaving Jung-sook fuming. She intended to take out her
06:01anger on Ha-yung, but then learned of Man-ho's decision. Jung-sook immediately confronted her
06:06husband, demanding an explanation for Ha-yung's promotion, even resorting to physical violence.
06:13Man-ho angrily retaliated, fed up with her behavior. After being struck by Man-ho, Jung-sook
06:19turned to her son, complaining that Ha-yung, as a daughter-in-law, should be at home doing chores
06:24and caring for the children, not working without her permission. But Jung-sook forgot one crucial
06:30detail. Man-ho was the head of the family. He would not tolerate her interference. He declared
06:36his authority and the finality of his decision regarding Ha-yung's position. With Man-ho's
06:41backing, Jung-sook, though furious, was powerless against Ha-yung. However, she was oblivious to
06:47the fact that Ha-yung's revenge was just beginning. From that day forward, Ha-yung would repay
06:53every humiliation she had suffered. Seven years of enduring abuse had taught her that Jung-sook's
06:59greatest weakness was public embarrassment in front of her social circle. Relishing the opportunity,
07:05Ha-yung revoked Jung-sook's privilege of gifting hotel VIP cards to her friends. Jung-sook,
07:11enraged and humiliated, sputtered in anger, nearly apoplectic at the loss of face. But this was merely
07:17the appetizer. Next, Ha-yung targeted Jung-sook's confidante, Hee-jin. Without wasting words,
07:24she demanded Hee-jin become her informant. Emboldened by Jung-sook's patronage, Hee-jin initially
07:30dismissed Ha-yung and refused. Ha-yung remained calm, anticipating this resistance. She produced a file
07:37containing evidence of Hee-jin and her boyfriend embezzling company funds, threatening to expose them
07:43if Hee-jin didn't cooperate. Faced with this ultimatum, Hee-jin switched sides, becoming Ha-yung's
07:50spy, planted right beside Jung-sook. After accomplishing all of this, Ha-yung still felt
07:55it wasn't enough. Next, she targeted Jung-sook's exorbitant hotel expenses. Since Jung-sook spent
08:02tens of billions of won at the hotel annually, it was impacting the hotel's profitability. Ha-yung
08:08decided to make Jung-sook cover all of her personal hotel bills. Jung-sook was utterly enraged. It was
08:14her family's hotel, and she believed she could use it as she pleased. How dare Ha-yung give her
08:20orders? She insulted Ha-yung, calling her a country bumpkin who didn't understand the extravagant
08:25lifestyle of the wealthy. But as Jung-sook was unleashing her fury, Man-ho intervened. He raised both
08:32hands in support of Ha-yung's decision, his admiration for his daughter-in-law's decisiveness
08:37growing. Looking at his wife, he thought, they're both women, so why is the gap between them so vast?
08:44Faced with Man-ho's firm stance, Jung-sook was forced to swallow her anger. Her usual imperious
08:50air vanished, replaced by the fear of another beating. Unbeknownst to Ha-yung, Jin, who had agreed to be her
08:56informant, was secretly reporting everything to Jung-sook. Ha-yung discovered this betrayal but
09:02remained unfazed. Jung-sook knowing everything was part of her plan, she was officially declaring war.
09:09Ha-yung then used her authority to transfer Hee-jin to a remote branch. Jung-sook was furious when she
09:15learned of this. The poor daughter-in-law she had bullied now dared to defy her. She vowed to make
09:21Ha-yung pay. With Man-ho's strong backing, Ha-yung assumed the position of company director.
09:27On her first day, she immediately fired several long-time company veterans. Upon hearing this,
09:33Jung-sook rushed to complain to her husband. She argued that Ha-yung's place was at home,
09:38doing laundry and cooking. How could a country girl know anything about business? To her surprise,
09:44Man-ho wasn't angry. Instead, he laughed heartily. He agreed with Ha-yung's actions.
09:50The hotel had been losing money for five consecutive years, primarily due to these
09:55veterans who collected their salaries without contributing anything, only scheming for personal
10:00gain. He hadn't had the courage to act, but Ha-yung had done it for him. Man-ho was increasingly
10:06convinced that his daughter-in-law was a business genius. Meanwhile, after dealing with the veterans,
10:12Ha-yung focused on improving the hotel environment and enhancing the quality of the food.
10:17Watching Ha-yung's methodical work infuriated Jung-sook. Absolutely determined to prevent Ha-yung
10:23from gaining the upper hand, Jung-sook devised another wicked scheme. Unable to interfere with
10:29the company directly, she would sabotage Ha-yung's family life. She fired the children's tutor and
10:35hired Mai-ra, Ha-yung's rival, to take over their education. Still not satisfied, knowing how busy
10:41Ha-yung was with the company, she implemented a new rule. Ha-yung was now required to wake up
10:47between 3 and 4am to prepare breakfast and care for her newly married sister-in-law. Since Ha-yung
10:54hadn't yet consolidated her control over the company, and the time for revenge hadn't arrived,
10:59she complied. From the moment she arrived, Ji-hai, the new sister-in-law, had noticed Jung-sook's
11:05disdainful glances. Jung-sook deemed her clothes too frumpy and unbefitting. Seeing Ji-hai reminded
11:12Ha-yung of her own early days in the family. Determined to prevent Ji-hai from suffering
11:17the same bullying, Ha-yung took her shopping for elegant, understated clothes. She even gifted
11:22Ji-hai an expensive imported car and filled her in on Jung-sook's habits to help her navigate the
11:28family dynamics. However, Ji-hai still made a misstep. She was scolded harshly by Jung-sook
11:34for wearing inappropriate attire to breakfast. Upon learning this, Ha-yung quickly bought Ji-hai
11:40suitable breakfast attire. The two women supported each other, united against Jung-sook. But Jung-sook's
11:47malice didn't stop there. To drive Ha-yung away, she deliberately arranged for My-ra to stay overnight,
11:53while Tae-jin, her son, roamed the house in his pajamas. My-ra showed no restraint. They were caught
12:00in the act by Ha-yung when she returned from work. My-ra fled. It became clear that Jung-sook had
12:06orchestrated the entire scene. She was trying to force Ha-yung to resign, using the children,
12:12Ha-yung's biggest vulnerability, as leverage. Ha-yung knew this was another one of Jung-sook's schemes.
12:18She immediately dismissed My-ra. But My-ra, being Ha-yung's rival, wouldn't go down without a fight.
12:25With Jung-sook's backing, My-ra became even more defiant. Her goal was to usurp Ha-yung's position.
12:32As for Tae-jin, upon learning that his father had given Ha-yung a hotel, he immediately demanded a
12:38large sum of money from her as soon as she returned home. Ha-yung refused his demand. He hit her,
12:44but she endured it, knowing her time for revenge hadn't yet come. Over the years,
12:49she hadn't been idle. She'd been quietly cultivating relationships that would benefit her.
12:54Now, with Man-ho entrusting her with the management of a hotel,
12:58she knew it was only a matter of time before she could crush Jung-sook and Tae-jin.
13:03Ha-yung couldn't fathom how Tae-jin could behave so shamefully in front of their daughters.
13:08But Tae-jin saw nothing wrong with his actions. His previous wives had endured similar treatment.
13:14He even resorted to physical violence against Ha-yung. Ha-yung had to pretend nothing was amiss,
13:20playing along with him for the sake of appearances in front of the media.
13:24After enduring seven years of bullying from Tae-jin and Jung-sook,
13:28she finally discovered their weakness. One day, Ha-yung stumbled upon My-ra showing Jung-sook a painting.
13:35Jung-sook and Tae-jin's overly tense reaction immediately aroused her suspicion.
13:40She promptly hired a lawyer to investigate the two paintings, and indeed, uncovered a problem.
13:46It turned out that Jung-sook was involved. She had colluded with her foolish son to defraud the
13:51company. They purchased two paintings at a low price and then reported inflated prices to the company.
13:57The children's former tutor was the mastermind behind the scheme.
14:01This deception had cost the company tens of billions of won.
14:05Man-ho was pleased with Ha-yung's performance. He promised her 10% of the company's shares if she
14:11could turn the hotel around within a year. He offered an additional 5% if she could produce
14:16a chubby grandson. With 15% of the shares, Ha-yung would become a major shareholder. Driven by her desire
14:24for revenge against Jung-sook and Tae-jin, she was determined to acquire these shares. She then
14:29revealed Tae-jin and Jung-sook's fraudulent activities to Man-ho. Man-ho was furious. As soon
14:36as he arrived home, he dragged his son out and gave him a beating. Jung-sook's attempts to intervene
14:42were futile. But this was only the beginning. Compared to the humiliation she had endured for
14:47seven years, this was nothing. After being beaten by his father, Tae-jin was seething with anger.
14:54He suspected Ha-yung was the informant. Disregarding the presence of their child,
14:58he lashed out at Ha-yung. After the assault, he stormed off. Ha-yung had to maintain composure
15:05in front of their child. Jung-sook also suspected Ha-yung's involvement. Waiting for Man-ho to leave,
15:11she deliberately picked a fight at the dinner table. But Ha-yung was no longer intimidated.
15:17She stated she didn't want to discuss these matters with Jung-sook. Even her granddaughter
15:22mocked Jung-sook, saying, we must remain silent while eating. That's our family rule.
15:28Jung-sook was livid. The meek daughter-in-law and granddaughter she had once bullied now
15:33dared to speak to her this way. But she couldn't do anything to Ha-yung. Too angry to eat, she stormed
15:39off. Ha-yung now held 10% of the company shares. She bought her mother a new apartment. Finally,
15:46she no longer had to endure Jung-sook's scorn. She could visit her mother freely.
15:51Jung-sook, realizing Ha-yung was now untouchable, redirected her anger toward Jai-hai. Before the
15:58marriage, she had promised not to interfere with Jai-hai's work. Now, she reneged on her promise,
16:04demanding Jai-hai quit her job and become a full-time homemaker to serve her.
16:09Ha-yung, recognizing Jai-hai's situation mirrored her own past, shared the wisdom she had gained over
16:15the years. Living in such a heartless family required patience, waiting for the right moment
16:20to reclaim one's freedom. But Jai-hai couldn't endure it for even a moment. She immediately
16:25confided in Ti-wook. Ti-wook promptly informed his father. This enraged Jung-sook. Not only did she
16:33verbally abuse Jai-hai, but she also secretly contacted the press. Smiling, she made false
16:39accusations, portraying Jai-hai as an unfilial daughter-in-law. Jai-hai's boss, upon hearing
16:45the news, began searching for a replacement. Jung-sook hadn't anticipated that her cruel
16:51actions would unite the two daughters-in-law against her. The weak-willed daughter-in-law,
16:56who was once bullied and beaten by Jung-sook, has now completely transformed herself and become
17:01the company's largest shareholder. It took Ha-yung only three months to turn the hotel that
17:06Man-ho entrusted to her from a state of loss for five consecutive years into a profitable one.
17:12At the shareholders' meeting, Man-ho did not hesitate to praise Ha-yung's ability.
17:17He said that as long as she continued to maintain this, Ha-yung could hold 15% of the group's shares,
17:22becoming the largest shareholder. Thus, she was even closer to her goal of revenge on Jung-sook.
17:29Then in the blink of an eye, a month had passed. Under Ha-yung's dedicated management,
17:34the hotel had made a profit of more than $500 billion. Man-ho was extremely surprised and
17:40immediately convened a shareholders' meeting. In front of everyone, he proposed to appoint Ha-yung
17:45as deputy general director and vote at the shareholders' meeting afterwards. The shareholders
17:50who previously looked down on Ha-yung were now convinced by her abilities and all supported Man-ho's
17:56opinion. Ha-yung was also determined to win this position. Only then could she quickly take over
18:02the company, completing her plan to take revenge on Jung-sook and her fake husband.
18:07The day Ha-yung took office was approaching, and her useless husband was causing trouble again.
18:13He was always secretly having an affair with Mai-ra. No matter what Ha-yung said,
18:17he still refused to go home so as not to affect his promotion. Ha-yung couldn't stand it anymore,
18:23she went directly to Mai-ra and taught her a lesson. But Mai-ra still boldly declared that
18:28she would take Ha-yung's position. At this time, Ha-yung was really angry. She grabbed
18:34Mai-ra's hair, pushed her to the ground and beat her up. She also warned her that if she dared to
18:39do it again, it wouldn't be as simple as cutting her hair. As for Jung-sook, Ha-yung now has Man-ho's
18:46backing. She can't do anything to Ha-yung so she has to turn to Ji-hye. She forced her to quit the job
18:52she loved for many years, come home to be a full-time housewife to serve her. She thought
18:57that she could control Ji-hye. But she didn't expect that Man-ho would directly appoint Ji-hye
19:02to the company as a department head. She only had to work two days a week, but the salary was still
19:08ten times higher than before. After Jung-sook found out about this, she found excuses to make things
19:14difficult for Ji-hye, forcing her to attend all kinds of stupid classes. Her goal was to turn Ji-hye into a
19:21servant. Because she was ordered around by Jung-sook every day, living like a puppet put too much mental
19:26pressure on Ji-hye, and she might become permanently infertile. Knowing this, Ti-wook could not bear to
19:32see his new wife being humiliated by her mother. So he suggested studying abroad and wanted to take
19:38Ji-hye along. Jung-sook did not agree because if Ji-hye went, there would be no one to serve her.
19:45Unexpectedly, Man-ho happily agreed. Indeed, marriage is the grave of love. Only then did Ji-hye
19:51Ji-hye feel like she was reborn. But disaster always comes unexpectedly. Because Hai-yung's
19:57useless husband colluded with Mai-ra, used sweet words to cheat, secretly raised a lot of illegal
20:03money to run for a counselor. This was investigated by the authorities, affecting Hai-yung, who was about
20:09to be promoted. Even Ji-hye had to postpone her plan to study abroad because of this. Because Ti-wook is a
20:16prosecutor, he could only postpone his plan to study abroad before settling his brother's matter.
20:21As for Hai-yung, she suddenly received intimate photos of her and her ex-lover, who had broken up
20:27eight years ago. This was something she didn't care about, but now was an important time for her to be
20:33promoted to vice president. Hai-yung absolutely wouldn't allow any unfavorable factors to appear.
20:39She thought it was definitely her ex-lover's trick. But Hai-yung didn't know that the person who used the
20:44photos to threaten her was Mai-ra. It turned out that Mai-ra was her ex-lover's younger sister.
20:50Mai-ra wanted to get revenge on Hai-yung for abandoning her brother. So she tried to make
20:55things difficult for Hai-yung. By the time Hai-yung found out the truth, it was too late.
21:00Mai-ra had posted those photos online, slandering Hai-yung for still being involved with her ex-lover.
21:06This immediately became a hot topic. Man-ho was extremely angry after seeing it.
21:11He had always considered Hai-yung as the heir, but he didn't expect something like this to happen.
21:17He immediately revoked all of Hai-yung's positions and forced her to return home to continue doing
21:22housework and taking care of the children. Reluctantly, Hai-yung had no choice but to
21:27return home. But waiting for her were Young-suk's bitter, sarcastic words. Ignoring the child beside
21:34her, Young-suk kicked Hai-yung out of the house. Terrified, the two children quickly called Jai-hai and
21:40begged her to come and rescue them. Jai-hai had been tormented in this house for a whole year.
21:46She understood her sister-in-law's situation all too well, but there was nothing she could do except
21:51help Hai-yung look after the children. Hai-yung completely collapsed. After seven years of enduring
21:57hardship, she had finally achieved success. But in just one night, everything had returned to zero.
22:04However, things didn't stop there. To get revenge on Hai-yung, Mi-ra dragged Sung-jin into the mess.
22:10Since Sung-jin worked at Ma's art gallery, Mi-ra took advantage of a fundraising event involving the
22:16artwork and secretly framed Sung-jin. To save his son, Man-ho used his connections to shift all the
22:23blame onto Sung-jin. Hai-yung was driven to her wit's end. She knelt and begged Man-ho to spare her
22:29brother, because otherwise, his life would be ruined. But if he agreed to Hai-yung's plea,
22:34his own son would go to jail. How could he accept that? He refused to change his decision no matter
22:41what. At this point, Hai-yung had to regain her composure. She thought everything through and
22:47decided to rescue her brother first, then find a way to return to the company and carry out her
22:52revenge plan. Just how cruel was Young-suk? She treated Jai-hai like a servant, overworking her
22:58to the point of collapse, requiring an emergency trip to the hospital. But when she received the call,
23:04she showed no concern for Jai-hai's life, continuing to drink tea and chat with her Hai-society friends.
23:11Furthermore, when Jai-hai brought a friend home and was caught by Young-suk, she berated Jai-hai in front of
23:17her friend. She said that Jai-hai was bringing riffraff into the house. This caused a misunderstanding
23:23and her friend cut ties with her to prevent Jai-hai from continuing to work and force her to stay home
23:29and take care of her. Young-suk even smashed Jai-hai's computer, taking away the last bit of freedom she had.
23:36Jai-hai, who had been suppressing her emotions for a long time, finally exploded. She mustered the
23:42courage to tell her mother-in-law to stop. Young-suk, surprised that Jai-hai dared to defy her,
23:48immediately called her son to complain, falsely accusing Jai-hai of bullying her at home.
23:54Jai-hai was utterly devastated, wondering why she had married this man. What had she been enduring
24:00all this time for? In her despair, she immediately filed for divorce. But Ti-wook urged her to try a
24:06little harder. Jai-hai didn't want to stay in that house for another minute. It was like hell.
24:12Everything was dictated by Young-suk. There were dozens of servants in the house, but she still
24:17made things difficult for her two daughters-in-law, simply because they came from ordinary families
24:22and didn't meet her standards. Although Ti-wook understood Jai-hai's feelings, he didn't dare go
24:28against his mother. Before they got married, he had promised to bring her happiness. But now,
24:33every day she lived like a puppet. Finally, Jai-hai couldn't take it anymore and left home.
24:39But she had nowhere to go. Her family consisted of only one older sister her only remaining relative.
24:45She didn't want her sister to worry about her, so she swallowed her humiliation and returned home.
24:51She used the threat of suicide to force her husband to agree to a divorce. But Ti-wook refused.
24:57He said that if she died, he would die with her, and begged her to be more tolerant of his mother.
25:02After Jai-hai was hospitalized, Ti-wook realized how much his mother had hurt his wife.
25:08But Young-suk didn't admit her fault. Instead, she blamed Jai-hai for not appreciating her good fortune,
25:15saying she would be nothing without the family. She directly scolded Jai-hai in her hospital bed.
25:21Her older sister, who was present, couldn't stand it anymore. Jai-hai's parents had died early,
25:27and her sister had raised her since childhood, always cherishing her like a treasure. Yet,
25:32in her husband's home, Jai-hai was treated like this. In a fit of anger, her sister took Jai-hai back
25:38to their childhood home. As for Ha-young, despite being brutally beaten by Young-suk to save her
25:45brother, she defied Young-suk's objections and boldly left the house to visit her brother at the police
25:50station. She told her brother not to say anything during the interrogation. Just stay silent, and
25:56she would get him out soon. Then, Ha-young began to execute her plan. First, she approached Man-ho
26:03and told him she wanted a divorce. In truth, Man-ho valued her as a daughter-in-law and firmly refused
26:09to agree. Under Ha-young's pressure, Man-ho offered to reinstate her position in the company to dissuade
26:15her from pursuing the divorce. But this was all part of Ha-young's plan. Currently, she desperately
26:21wanted the divorce, so Man-ho reluctantly contacted Lawyer Kim to inquire about divorce proceedings.
26:28To Man-ho's utter astonishment, Lawyer Kim had resigned the very day Ha-young was dismissed.
26:33He had even become Ha-young's right-hand man. With Lawyer Kim's help, they found a retired actress.
26:39According to Lawyer Kim's investigation, the actress's daughter was T-Jin's child.
26:44This was their purpose in finding her. Ha-young proposed that if the actress helped her win
26:50the divorce case, she would help the actress return to the entertainment industry. As expected,
26:55the actress readily agreed. The next step was to antagonize her in-laws. Ha-young couldn't leave
27:01her two daughters there. She returned home, packed their belongings, and took her daughters directly out
27:07of the house. By evening, Man-ho and Young-sook discovered their daughters-in-law were gone.
27:12They were completely stunned, but this was just the beginning. They had no idea how ruthless their
27:18daughter-in-law truly was. Man-ho looked at the empty dining table, deeply disturbed. He blamed
27:24everything on Young-sook's malicious actions. Both of his obedient daughters-in-law had been driven
27:29away by her. But Young-sook didn't see it that way. She believed she had done nothing wrong,
27:35and instead blamed Man-ho. If he hadn't let Ha-young manage the company, she wouldn't have dared to be so
27:41defiant. Daughters-in-law should stay home, be obedient, do housework, and take care of the
27:46children that was their duty. Young-sook was the reason things had become like this. Man-ho found
27:52Young-sook utterly unreasonable. Both daughters-in-law had left home. Unable to find an outlet
27:58for her anger, Young-sook unleashed her fury on the housekeeper. But she didn't realize that this
28:04housekeeper was actually one of Ha-young's people. Despite having left the house, Young-sook's every move
28:09was under Ha-young's surveillance. Later, she would exact her revenge on Young-sook and Ti-jin mercilessly.
28:17Ti-jin came to Ha-young's door, arrogantly threatening her and telling her to drop the divorce.
28:22He believed that without his family, she was nothing. Unfazed and unwilling to argue,
28:27Ha-young told him to go home and wait for the show. Soon, news broke about the secrets between the
28:33actress and Ti-jin, including the news of Ha-young's divorce filing and her demand for 500 billion won
28:39in compensation. After watching the news, Man-ho was so angry he nearly vomited. He couldn't
28:45understand how he could have such a useless son. He had a good wife at home but chose to chase after
28:51other women. So, he called Ha-young out again, threatening her to drop the divorce. In Man-ho's
28:57eyes, Ha-young was just the daughter of a poor family who had gotten lucky. He thought she should
29:02be grateful for marrying into their wealthy family and enjoying a life others could only dream of.
29:08But now, she was turning against them. Man-ho warned Ha-young, if she didn't stop,
29:13she shouldn't blame him for being ruthless. He even threatened to erase her from existence.
29:18Ultimately, he underestimated his daughter-in-law. Ha-young had endured seven years of Young-sook
29:24and Ti-jin's humiliation. She had been waiting for this moment. How could she give up so easily?
29:30Ha-young directly declared war on Man-ho. They would see who would win in the end.
29:36Man-ho was utterly dumbfounded. He hadn't expected Ha-young to be so resolute this time.
29:41She didn't even bother to listen to his words. He directly unleashed his fury on Young-sook.
29:46But Young-sook, accustomed to her domineering ways, couldn't tolerate this anger. She even suggested
29:53that Man-ho find someone to quietly kill Ha-young, but they underestimated their daughter-in-law.
29:58Ha-young had already made her move. She asked her lawyer, Mr. Kim, to obtain some documents from a
30:04doctor friend, then submitted them to the court as evidence. It turned out that for the past three
30:10years, Ha-young had been constantly bullied by her husband. Every time she was beaten, she suffered
30:16injuries all over her body. But for the sake of the family's reputation, she only dared to secretly
30:21seek treatment from her friend. In the most serious instance, she even suffered a miscarriage.
30:27Fortunately, Ha-young was a clever woman. Each time, she had her friend write a diagnostic report
30:32and photograph her injuries as evidence. In this loveless family life, she had long anticipated
30:38the day she would need this evidence. Quickly, this evidence reached T. Jin's lawyer. Seeing the
30:44thick stack of evidence, with over 100 reports of assault alone, even the most competent lawyer
30:50wouldn't dare take the case. T. Jin knew he had lost. Furious, he stormed into Ha-young's house
30:56and berated her, calling her a wicked woman. He accused her of feigning weakness while secretly
31:01gathering evidence to ruin him. Ha-young refused to argue. When he tried to hit her, she knocked
31:07him to the ground. Dropping the pretense, she told him plainly that she had been bullied for
31:12five years and would never allow it to happen again. Ha-young then sought out Ji-hye, who had
31:18left her husband's home. The two women, sharing similar predicaments, decided to join forces
31:23against their in-laws. But Jung-sook remained oblivious. Thinking she could no longer bully
31:28Ha-young, she devised ways to humiliate Ji-hye. Jung-sook called Ji-hye and scolded her, demanding
31:35she return to her husband's house immediately. But Jung-sook was unaware of Ji-hye's alliance
31:41with Ha-young. They were strategizing against her. This time, Ji-hye would not obey Jung-sook.
31:48As for Man-ho, he approached Ha-young. He realized his useless son was no match for her cunning
31:53and resourcefulness, especially considering her meticulous collection of evidence. So,
31:59Man-ho wanted to negotiate. He said that if Ha-young withdrew the divorce petition, he
32:04would meet any of her demands. But Ha-young's conditions made Man-ho's blood pressure skyrocket.
32:10She not only demanded that he save her brother, but also that she be appointed vice president
32:15of the corporation. If he didn't meet these two conditions, she would not withdraw the divorce
32:20petition. Although Man-ho valued Ha-young's abilities, he couldn't hand over such an important
32:25position to her. He couldn't accept her conditions. He thought, she's just a woman, what can she
32:31do? But the person who entered next changed Man-ho's perception of his daughter-in-law. It
32:37was Man-ho's trusted lawyer. This lawyer, who held all the company's confidential information,
32:42was now on Ha-young's side. Man-ho was so furious he nearly had a stroke, smashing his expensive
32:49antiques. Only then did he realize the extent of Ha-young's ambition, greater even than any
32:55man he had ever met. Reluctantly, Man-ho had to compromise. He decided to have Tae-jin turn
33:01himself in to the police in exchange for Sung-jin's release. But his cowardly son refused to go to the
33:07police station. When Young-sook learned of this, she immediately confronted Man-ho. If he dared to
33:13send her precious son to jail, she would send him there instead. Faced with such a wife, Man-ho had
33:20a splitting headache. Meanwhile, Ha-young made her next move. She went directly to the prosecutor in
33:26charge of the case and subtly revealed part of the truth. She even provided the prosecutor with M's
33:31address. However, M, having been tipped off, had already fled to prevent his son from going to jail.
33:38Young-sook, sparing no expense, pushed a senior executive of the company forward as a scapegoat.
33:44Thanks to this, Sung-jin was released without charge. Soon after, Man-ho approached Ha-young again.
33:51He demanded that she withdraw the divorce petition and hand over the information held by lawyer Kim.
33:56Because, after careful consideration, Man-ho had decided to accept Ha-young's condition
34:01to make her vice president, second only to himself in the entire corporation. As for Jai-hai,
34:07she told T-wook everything. Finally, T-wook saw his mother's true colors. He decided to join forces
34:14with his wife against his cruel mother. Returning home, he had a huge argument with her. Young-sook
34:20couldn't believe it. Her youngest son, always obedient, was now speaking to her this way.
34:26Refusing to acknowledge her own faults, she blamed Jai-hai, convinced she had used sweet words to
34:32deceive her son. She raised her hand to slap him, wanting to snap him out of what she saw as a
34:37manipulative spell. But Young-sook didn't realize her action only deepened his disgust. He left home
34:43too. But the betrayals were just the beginning. A miserable prison life awaited Young-sook.
34:49Man-ho worried Ha-young would release damaging evidence against the company,
34:53so he used the vice presidency to keep her in check. But Ha-young wouldn't easily trust him again.
34:59Now, every step she took was cautious, wary of falling into Man-ho's traps. Man-ho,
35:05understanding her mindset, began to use her children as leverage. If she continued to refuse the vice
35:11presidency, her daughters would suffer. Ha-young might not care about herself, but could she disregard
35:17her daughter's well-being? Man-ho even promised to groom her as his heir. After careful consideration,
35:23Ha-young decided to accept Man-ho's offer. But she wouldn't hand over the evidence she possessed.
35:29She only promised to keep it confidential. Thus, Ha-young returned to her in-law's house with her
35:35children, and Jai-hai also decided to return. Hiding like a fugitive wasn't a solution. Jai-hai needed to
35:42confront her in-laws before leaving for good. The simultaneous return of both daughters-in-law
35:47should have been a joyous occasion. But Young-sook couldn't bring herself to be happy. If Ha-young
35:52became vice president, she would surely usurp Young-sook's authority. So, she started plotting
35:58again. She wanted Man-ho to keep Ha-young at home, doing housework, taking care of the children,
36:03and serving her completely, just like before. But she didn't expect Man-ho to tell her to shut up in
36:09front of Ha-young, threatening to destroy her if she didn't. Young-sook was completely stunned that
36:15Ha-young now had Man-ho's backing. She would target Jai-hai instead. So, she started trying to win
36:21Jai-hai over, hoping to trick her into an alliance against Ha-young. But wasn't Young-sook overthinking
36:27it? Jai-hai wasn't a fool. She hadn't forgotten how Young-sook had treated her. How could she easily
36:33believe her sweet words now? Soon came the day of Ha-young's inauguration ceremony. When T-jin saw the
36:40news, he was so furious he nearly choked. That position, he believed, should have been his,
36:46but his wife had snatched it away. My-ra was even more desperate. Initially, she had colluded with
36:52Young-sook to frame Ha-young and send Sung-jin to jail. But not only had their plan failed to affect Ha-young,
36:58she had become the vice president of the corporation. My-ra herself, to evade the police, was living a
37:04life on the run. She had initially planned to seek help from Young-sook. But Young-sook, having used her,
37:10now wanted to discard her. My-ra was completely devastated. This would make Young-sook pay dearly.
37:17The next day, My-ra went directly to the police station. She would confess everything, ensuring Young-sook
37:23faced the full force of the law. Due to My-ra's confession, Ha-young's husband was
37:28also implicated in embezzlement. Terrified of going to jail, he begged his brother for help.
37:34But this time, the matter was so serious that even his prosecutor brother couldn't protect him.
37:39Everything was going in Ha-young's favor, but the prosecutor who had previously helped her
37:44suddenly started making things difficult. Ha-young had promised to hand over the company's
37:49incriminating evidence to him, but she had reneged. The prosecutor was furious,
37:54vowing to use every means to pull Ha-young down from her vice-presidency. But Ha-young wasn't afraid.
38:00Having made this choice, how could she not be prepared? With Do-my's confession, Ha-young's
38:06husband's family, the keyball, was implicated. The company faced a major crisis, but T-jin continued
38:12to spend his nights carousing with women in nightclubs. Now, as vice-president with real power,
38:18Ha-young had had enough of her useless husband. She personally led a group of security guards to
38:23confront him. Upon seeing Ha-young, the feckless husband, instead of showing remorse, blamed her
38:29for stealing his position as vice-president. He even tried to physically assault her. But Ha-young
38:35wasn't the pushover she once was. She slapped him hard across the face, followed by three more
38:41stinging blows. Meanwhile, Young-suk, the culprit behind everything, panicked when she saw the news of
38:47the confession. However, she reassured herself that as the wife of the renowned chairman, the police
38:53couldn't touch her. Ha-young, having just dealt with her husband, returned home only to be met by
38:59Young-suk, who immediately began to find fault. Young-suk berated Ha-young, claiming she couldn't
39:05even handle small matters and was unworthy of the vice-presidency. Already stressed, Ha-young was left
39:11speechless by the venomous words. Ha-young finally snapped back at Young-suk, who then deflected all
39:17blame onto her. Young-suk was taken aback by Ha-young's defiance. A shouting match ensued,
39:23with neither willing to back down. Young-suk was stunned that the daughter-in-law she had always
39:28looked down upon dared to speak to her that way. Yet she found herself powerless against Ha-young.
39:34Completely oblivious to the gravity of the situation, Young-suk retreated to her secret art studio to
39:39drink wine, listen to music, and continue living her lavish life. Unbeknownst to Young-suk,
39:45her cherished studio was about to be destroyed. The paintings inside were revealed to be part of
39:51M's illegal dealings. Ha-young informed Man-ho, who, enraged, immediately sent men to dismantle
39:57the secret studio. As for Ji-hye, ever since returning to the family home, she had been plagued
40:03by nightmares of Young-suk's cruel treatment. Unable to bear it any longer, Ji-hye swallowed an entire
40:10bottle of sleeping pills. The medication quickly took effect, rendering her unconscious.
40:15Fortunately, Ti-wook arrived home in time and rushed her to the hospital, saving her life.
40:21However, the incident was captured by reporters. The new daughter-in-law had attempted suicide by
40:26overdosing on sleeping pills. When Young-suk saw the news, her first instinct was to complain to Man-ho
40:33about Ji-hye, accusing her of faking the suicide attempt to tarnish the family's reputation. She
40:39remained utterly blind to her own role in driving Ji-hye to such desperate measures.
40:44Upon learning of the news report, Ha-young immediately contacted the publication,
40:49demanding they remove all articles about Ji-hye and recall the published newspapers,
40:54threatening to shut them down otherwise. Doctors recommended that Ti-wook take Ji-hye abroad to
41:00recuperate and aid her recovery. Upon hearing this, Young-suk intervened, falsely accusing Ji-hye
41:06of feigning illness to gain sympathy. Ti-wook, furious at his mother's baseless accusations,
41:12erupted in anger. Man-ho, equally disgusted, ordered Young-suk to leave. Even after being
41:18discharged from the hospital, Ji-hye hadn't fully recovered. One morning, exhausted, she fell asleep at
41:24the breakfast table. Instead of showing concern, Young-suk callously accused her of faking illness
41:30to avoid housework, spewing more hurtful words in front of the entire family. But Young-suk was unaware
41:36that her comeuppance had arrived. Man-ho ordered the servants to remove all of Young-suk's belongings
41:42from her room and dispose of them. Young-suk, distraught, wailed and shrieked, demanding her husband
41:48replace her possessions, claiming they were acquired through great hardship and represented significant
41:53monetary value. Man-ho, enraged, called her a pig-brained idiot. Only then did the gravity
41:59of the situation dawn on Young-suk. Panicked, she begged Ha-yung for help, desperate to avoid prison,
42:06but Ha-yung, unable to assist, showed no interest. Seeing Ha-yung's indifference, Young-suk flew into a
42:13rage, calling her ungrateful and unfilial. Man-ho, unable to tolerate her behavior any longer,
42:19unleashed a torrent of reprimands. Feeling wronged and abandoned by her family, Young-suk hatched a plan
42:25to flee the country, believing she could evade arrest and imprisonment. However, her plan was
42:30naive. Authorities had already imposed travel restrictions on her. Finally, fear consumed
42:37Young-suk. Resigned to her fate, she remained at home, awaiting the inevitable legal repercussions.
42:43Meanwhile, Ha-yung took her husband and daughter on a seemingly pleasant outing to the countryside.
42:48Tae-jin, puzzled by this unexpected gesture, assumed Ha-yung had changed her ways,
42:54wanting to be a good wife and mother. He preened, believing his charm was still potent.
42:59He was oblivious to Ha-yung's true intentions, to let him enjoy one last taste of freedom before
43:04his impending imprisonment. A sentence of at least five years, news of which Ha-yung had already received.
43:11The foolish husband, blinded by vanity, believed Ha-yung still loved him.
43:16With Young-suk's imprisonment imminent, Ha-yung met Jai-hai to celebrate their victory.
43:21However, Jai-hai still bore the scars of Young-suk's abuse. T-wook, looking at his wife,
43:27felt a growing distance between them. The cheerful, spirited writer he knew had been replaced by a
43:32subdued, obedient daughter-in-law. Filled with regret, he blamed his cruel mother for Jai-hai's
43:38transformation. Determined to make amends, he cancelled his evening plans to take Jai-hai on
43:44a romantic date. But Jai-hai, exhausted, fell asleep while waiting for their food.
43:50T-wook's heart ached. He asked her about her ideal married life. Jai-hai confessed her desire for a
43:56peaceful, carefree existence, free from fear and with the freedom to pursue her passions. Unburdening
44:02herself seemed to lift a weight from her shoulders, and she slept soundly that night. T-wook,
44:07on the other hand, was tormented by her words. He realized he couldn't even provide her with the
44:13simple, ordinary life she craved. With his company under investigation and facing bankruptcy,
44:19he couldn't bear to drag Jai-hai down with him. After a night of agonizing deliberation,
44:24he made a difficult decision. The daughter-in-law, who had endured and plotted revenge for seven long
44:30years, had finally succeeded in putting Jung-sook behind bars. For Ha-young, this day was indeed a
44:36cause for celebration. The police were on their way to arrest Jung-sook and her deceitful husband.
44:42Though Man-ho dreaded witnessing this, he knew he had no other choice. His wife and son had brought
44:48this upon themselves. To protect the company, he had to let the law take its course. Following
44:54Ha-young's arrangements, he would temporarily flee the country to avoid the fallout.
44:59When Jung-sook learned of this, she was stunned. The husband who had been by her side for decades
45:04was abandoning her. She broke down in tears, unable to accept the reality. Just yesterday,
45:10she was a powerful kebal wife, and now she was facing imprisonment. In a desperate plea,
45:15she made absurd demands of Ha-young, arguing that her life was worth more and that the younger
45:21Ha-young should take her place in prison. But Jung-sook had forgotten that with Man-ho gone,
45:26Ha-young was now in control. She would no longer be bullied. Ha-young coldly told Jung-sook to stay put
45:33and await the consequences of her actions. Without a backward glance, she walked away.
45:38At the same time, the youngest son, to avoid implicating his wife, directly filed for divorce
45:44from Ji-hye, but she refused. She had guessed his intentions and wouldn't agree to the divorce
45:49under any circumstances. Ji-hye wanted to face the hardships with her husband. Seeing his wife's
45:55unwavering support, Ti-wook became even more agitated, resorting to harsh words to drive her away,
46:01but Ji-hye stubbornly refused to leave him. Left with no choice, Ti-wook could only take her back to her
46:08parents' house. Meanwhile, Ha-young quickly contacted her brother, asking him to pick up
46:13her two daughters. She didn't want them to witness their father and grandmother being arrested. After
46:19all, the children were still young. Then, she contacted the prosecutor, asking them to wait until
46:24she had gotten the children away before taking action. Soon after, the police arrested Ti-jin.
46:30Terrified, he immediately confessed to his crimes. Jung-sook, on the other hand,
46:35screamed about her innocence in front of the media. She even broke free from the police,
46:40throwing herself onto the wet ground and thrashing around. Did she think that would make the police
46:45let her go? After everything was over, Ha-young returned to her parents' house and wept in her
46:50mother's arms. Finally, after seven years of enduring hardship, she had achieved her goal of revenge.
46:57After this crisis, Ha-young became Man-ho's most trusted confidante. He decided to entrust the
47:03corporation to her direct management and declared her the heir. Ji-hye finally escaped her misery.
47:09After weathering the storm together, she and her husband officially divorced. Although heartbroken,
47:15they tearfully said goodbye. Her husband understood that only with her freedom could the wounds
47:20inflicted by Jung-sook begin to heal. A year passed quickly, and everything was moving in a positive
47:26direction, including Jung-sook serving her sentence in prison. Unable to stay still,
47:31she started causing trouble again, feigning a serious illness to be transferred from prison to a
47:36hospital. She thought she was clever, fooling everyone, but no matter what tricks she pulled,
47:42she could only achieve a brief respite from her confinement. She even put on a performance for Man-ho,
47:48claiming she had cancer and was on the verge of death, speaking as if it were the truth. But she
47:53didn't expect Man-ho to see through her charade. He exposed her lies, believing she was only causing
47:59trouble and trying to harm the corporation again. After letting her breathe fresh air for a day,
48:05he would return her to prison to continue serving her sentence. But Jung-sook, still delusional about
48:10her freedom, became arrogant again. Upon learning of Ji-hye and her son's divorce, she called Ji-hye to
48:17berate her, still thinking Ji-hye was the same meek, obedient daughter-in-law as before. Now divorced and no
48:24longer connected to the family. Why should Ji-hye endure Jung-sook's wrath? So, she threw the phone
48:30into the river. Jung-sook was furious. As for Tae-jin, he also wanted to emulate his mother by feigning
48:36illness to get out of prison. But Ha-young's actions thwarted his plans. Out of consideration for their
48:42years of marriage, Ha-young gave Tae-jin a book about prison escapes. She told him to study it carefully, and he
48:49might be able to break out successfully. She warned him not to try anything else, or she would use every
48:55means to keep him imprisoned indefinitely. Tae-jin looked at the book his wife left, remembering how
49:01he and his mother used to beat Ha-young every day. He was filled with regret, but it was too late.
49:07Outside, Ha-young smiled triumphantly, turning her back on the prison without a second glance to seek the
49:12happy life she desired.
