A Virtuous Business Episode 12 Recap

The episode begins with a flashback of young Geum-hui’s life. Pregnant with her maid’s son, she is thrown out of the house after abandoning her. Left to struggle alone, she raises her son while living in poverty and continuing her studies. Despite the difficulties, his love for his son is unwavering. One fateful night, when she went out to buy bricks, a lamp accidentally broke causing a fire in her house. Running back, she sees her house engulfed in flames and rescues her child. Desperate for help, she begs her parents to take her in.

They agree on the condition that once the baby recovers, she must give him up to send him to America. Knowing that she cannot give her child a better life, Geum-hui reluctantly agrees. Back in the present, Geum-hui reunites with Do-hyeon at her home, and the two share an emotional embrace. After she leaves, Do-hyeon talks to Jeong-suk and shares his feelings about reuniting with his birth mother. The next day, John Wong encourages Geum-hui to invite Do-hyeon over more often, and suggests that she feed their son to maintain their bond. Feeling relieved, Geum-hui tells Ju-ri about her past, and reveals that Do-hyeon is her son.

Joo-ri is shocked but cooperative. Later, four women in the lingerie business share their respective dark pasts, and agree to support each other without judgment. As they prepare to leave the office, they run into Do-hyeon. Geum-hui and Joo-ri gently urge him to be more comfortable with his mother, but he struggles with the new dynamics. Geum-hui feels the need for space and politely declines to attend dinner with Do-hyeon and Jeong-suk.
That night, Joo-ri discovers that Dae-gyun is sleeping in the pharmacy instead of his home and is heartbroken to see his condition. The next day, she meets his mother, Ms. Heo, and agrees to break up with Dae-geun if it means he can return home. Joo-ri then breaks the news to Dae-gyun, leaving them both devastated. Meanwhile, Jong-sun is released on parole and reconciles with Young-bok, marking a hopeful new start for their relationship.

Do-hyeon later meets Geum-hui and Jeong-suk to announce his transfer to Seoul for two years or more. Jeong-suk gives them a mission to get closer before he leaves. Geum-hui makes extra effort, cooking for him, taking him home, and spending time with him at Jeong-suk’s place, where they even share a playful argument. On the day of his departure, Do-hyeon finally calls her “Mom”, a moment of deep significance for both of them.
Meanwhile, Ms. Heo notices how deeply Dae-gyun is affected by the breakup, even though she agrees to send him to photography school. In a flashback, Joo-ri is seen demanding Ms. Heo to let Dae-gyun pursue his passion as a condition of their breakup. Moved by Joo-ri’s love and selflessness, Ms. Heo reconsiders. She allows the couple to be reunited, and a delighted Dae-geun runs to Ju-ri, marking a happy resolution to their story.

Later that week, the four women were shocked to learn that their office had been robbed. After investigating, they discover that the CEO of the lingerie shop was a scammer who ran away with their earnings. Feeling responsible, Jeong-suk isolates himself, gets drunk in the office and starts crying while apologizing for disappointing his friends. However, the next day, she returns and finds other people cleaning the office, and is determined to start working again. Geum-Hui also pays the rent to give them a chance to rebuild their business.

Determined to understand, Jeong-suk meets the fleeing CEO, who admits that the scam was not intentional. She explains that the Seoul branch fell into debt, forcing them to use village sales to make ends meet. Before escaping, the CEO encourages Jeong-suk to find a way forward. Inspired by Do-hyeon’s words about perseverance, Jeong-suk channels his energy into a bold new plan.
The scene shifts to a bustling new lingerie store in Seoul, where Jeong-suk and his team have relaunched their business. The women, along with their loved ones—Do-hyeon, Geum-hui, John Wong, Ju-ri, Dae-geun, Young-bok, and Jong-sun—celebrate their success at the grand opening. When the protesters approach, Jeong-suk fearlessly cuts the balloon’s string, symbolizing his resilience and determination. She declares that no matter what challenges lie ahead, she will rise above them like balloons flying in the sky.
