Chairman Kang wants me
to negotiate on behalf of her.
You can talk to me from now on.
Isn't it considered cheating
to get involved now?
I didn't know there were such rules.
Don't be so stiff.
Let's try to achieve
a win-win situation.
Business is all about...
working together, right?
I know.
Like Hanju Fashion in the past.
This is a report
written up by Prix Fund.
It says Hanju Hotel's due diligence
was insufficient...
and the valuation is biased
in favor of Hanju.
I'll have an external
auditor reinspect.
You're out of line.
Are you implying
our due diligence was deceptive?
Am I...
out of line?
I'm just following your example.
Just like when you were
digging into...
my father's accounting fraud.
But I never made it public...
to protect the reputation
of the deceased.
Oh, I see.
So you were being considerate
of my father.
But you must know this well.
When it comes to business,
just because you've been kind...
doesn't mean you'll be repaid.
It would prove more beneficial...
to have something on someone.
As you probably know,
it seems like Sung Hye was...
planning to reveal
your father's accounting fraud.
So your father must have tried
to either move the ledgers...
or burn them up,
thinking it was too late.
What a fool.
He couldn't escape the fire
because of the ledgers.
Uncle.
You know my father wouldn't do that.
Please look into it again.
Think about all the kindness
my father has shown...
to Hanju Fashion and Sung Hye.
He would never do that.
You don't seem to understand.
Business doesn't work like that.
Just because you've shown
kindness to someone...
doesn't mean you'll be repaid.
Rather, it would prove
more beneficial...
to have something on that person.
Seung Wook.
I hope you're not picking a fight.
It's not like we're going to try
to find something on each other.
Why would you say such a thing?
I hope not.
Let's talk again
once due diligence is over.
Like father, like son.
If Uncle had remained quiet,
things would've been much easier
for many people.
[Warden's Office]
The prosecutor who wanted
to see me...
was you?
I heard you've said no to all visits,
so I came here as a prosecutor.
I did hear...
that you became a prosecutor.
My life in here...
is nothing special.
I eat and work out regularly,
watch some TV,
and work when I'm told to.
With the little money I'm given,
I sometimes buy food I want...
and post letters too.
Why did you do that?
- Sir.
- Goodness.
No one takes that road
except for the people...
who work at the factory.
We don't even have a witness.
There is nothing we can do.
There must be some speed cameras
along the road.
The cameras in the area
don't even work.
It's just for show.
You see,
we're short-staffed at the moment.
Just go home and wait.
We'll call you if anything turns up
during the investigation.
Do you know why we're short-handed?
What a problematic family.
Like father, like daughter.
Hey, go home.
How dare you throw a tantrum
at a police station?
You thug.
How could you start a fire
right after getting released?
If everyone set fire to
every company they get fired from,
there would be no companies left!
I always put up with
being looked down on...
as a thug's kid.
Was it so unfair that you got fired
because you were a thug?
Why did you tell Grandma
you were going to start a fire...
and make her rush there at night
and get run over by a car?
Why did you start a fire...
and make all the ambulances go
to the factory instead of Grandma?
Why?
I didn't know Mother would come.
- What?
- Yeon Ju.
Don't call my name.
To think that she was
so concerned about her lousy son...
that she rushed over there.
And look what happened in the end.
Even on her deathbed,
she told me not to blame you.
But no.
It's all your fault.
Grandma died because of you.
After putting us through so much...
After putting Grandma
through so much,
how could you let her die like that?
I know...
I'm responsible for Mother's death.
I know I couldn't pay for
what I did...
even if I rotted in prison
for the rest of my life.
I do know that.
What about all the innocent people
who died?
You didn't only make us suffer.
You made so many people's lives
miserable.
And what did you say?
You eat and work out regularly?
Have you no shame?
After I tried so hard
to run away from you,
why do you still barge into my life
and mess up everything?
Why?
After I became a prosecutor,
I learned the definition of a thug.
"Someone who is ready..."
"to use violence
to achieve their goal."
"A social ill."
I shouldn't have expected
to hear anything reasonable...
from such a person.
You'll never see me again.
[Warden's Office]
It's me.
Can we meet for a second?
We'll discuss the matter again
after a reinspection.
She'll be at a disadvantage
if the merger happens now,
so she'll soon make
a bunch of requests.
Kang Mi Na is the one...
who should be hearing this, not me.
I'm not saying this because
Chairman Kang Mi Na should hear it.
I wanted to say it to you.
By the way, where are we going now?
You've been acting
like a different person...
since you regained your memory.
It's like getting drunk
and befriending someone,
then meeting that person again
the next day, in broad daylight.
You once said to me...
that there would be many things
I could do...
because I didn't know my past.
You were right.
Now that I've regained my memory
and know my past,
there are things
that I simply can't do.
Things you simply can't do?
Like what?
Why did you bring me here?
This is my grandmother.
The day she passed away
is the same as your birthday.
[Choi Seung Ok,
September 16, 1939-October 2, 2007]
Her son had lost his job
at a factory. And that day,
he told her he wanted
to set the factory on fire.
Worried about what she'd heard,
she left the house
to go to the factory...
and got into a hit-and-run.
And because
she couldn't stop her son,
he actually ended up
setting the factory on fire.
What are you talking about?
I'm sorry.
That factory was...
the Hanju Factory.
And I'm the daughter...
of Kang Myung Guk,
the arsonist...
who k*lled your father.
Everything he did...
I'm truly sorry.
I really mean it.
I should get going.
Wait.
That makes no sense.
His surname is different from yours.
I changed my surname...
because I was sick
of being his daughter.
I brought you here to tell you this.
I figured it'd be too hard for me
to bring it up otherwise.
You know, my grandma was so scary.
I can't lie in front of her.
I'm off.
You can't leave like this.
Then what?
Do you have something to say?
How about I say
what you want to say to me now?
Everyone reacts the same way
when they find out...
that my father is a thug
and a m*rder*r.
At first, they act like
they're not shocked. "Oh, I see."
Then they'd say this.
"Are you going to keep living here?"
"Don't tell us you thought
you could stay friends with us."
Then we'd grow apart.
You'll be no different.
Besides, the man who died is your...
It had nothing to do with you.
I don't know what other people say,
but I don't think...
you have to take responsibility
for what your father did.
Come to think of it,
I brought you here,
so how will you go home?
You didn't bring your car.
We can cut ties...
after I give you a ride
for one last time.
Why must we cut ties?
And what? "For one last time?" Why?
All right.
What is your relationship
with Yeon Ju?
Who are you?
Just answer the question first...
First, tell me who you are.
Isn't that a polite thing to do?
What is your relationship
with Ms. Cho?
We are her father's brothers,
- That's right.
- which makes us...
Yeon Ju's uncles.
That's right.
I see. I'm sorry. I didn't know.
You don't have to be
that courteous...
What are you saying?
We are her uncles.
That's right.
We are Yeon Ju's uncles.
[Director Han Sung Hye]
The date for the reinspection
Yumin gave us is very soon.
Should I ask them to postpone it?
Just wait.
Any word on Lee Bong Sik?
Looks like the lead prosecutor
is putting off the investigation.
Didn't they dig up the old case
to track him down?
I thought they'd go public
with the list right away.
Who's the lead prosecutor
in the case?
I'll find out, ma'am.
Contact the prosecutor directly
and take care of it.
We don't want Lee Bong Sik
to say useless stuff...
because we can't have a scandal
break out before the merger.
Mr. Alex Chiang
who is handling the merger...
is a member of your family.
Wouldn't it be faster
to use your relationship with him?
"Family?"
What are you talking about?
He'd hate to admit
that my father is his uncle.
So you and Yeon Ju
are just next-door neighbors?
Yes, that's correct.
Do people commonly visit...
their neighbor's grandmother's
cremation niche these days?
And I believe I witnessed
a lovers' quarrel earlier.
My goodness.
Stop sticking your nose
into their love life.
That's not important now.
Then what is important now?
Do you own that place?
Pardon?
I'm on a month-to-month lease, but...
A month-to-month lease?
Oh, dear.
Yeon Ju is on a long-term lease.
The rent for that place
is probably quite high.
You need to save every penny
when you're young.
If you spend that much money
every month on rent...
Everyone lives like that
before they get married.
He'll buckle down and stop spending
after he gets married.
My goodness. Yeon Ju hasn't told you
about her father, right?
I'm not sure what she told you,
but he loved his daughter very much.
Yes, I could tell.
You met him?
Yes.
That means you and Yeon Ju
are very serious.
No, it's not that.
Come on!
You've met her father and visited
the cremation niche with her.
Il Yong now has nothing more
to wish for.
"Il Yong?"
Isn't his name Kang Myung Guk?
My gosh! You even know his name?
Il Yong is his nickname.
When he was young,
a big fire broke out at his home,
so he got a burn on his arm.
That's how the dragon tattoo
on his arm became d*sfigured.
Hence the nickname, Il Yong,
as in "d*sfigured dragon."
That's why we started calling him
Il Yong.
He's still so traumatized
that he even hates the word, "fire."
It always gets him in trouble.
Stop talking nonsense.
Where in Seopyung do you need to go?
Drop me off at the Seopyung District
Prosecutors' Office.
Let's hurry.
[Tamna Fish Market]
I kept asking him why he did it,
but he wouldn't say.
Whenever I was shunned, picked on...
and got fired from my part-time jobs
because of him,
I thought I'd feel less wronged...
if I at least knew the reason
why he had to do such a thing.
I asked him
because I thought it may still help.
You're not the type to just take it.
Right.
I was poor, but not just poor.
I was confidently poor.
Being poor isn't a crime.
But being a thug, arsonist,
and m*rder*r...
are crimes.
You can't add "confident"
in front of those words.
Forget it. What can I do?
My grandma said...
a criminal's parent and child
suffering like that...
was also a punishment
for the criminal.
How could a prosecutor say that?
Guilt lies with the perpetrator.
One can only be punished...
for crimes
identified in the statutes.
According to
the Korean Constitution,
no one in this country
may be punished...
for an act committed by a relative.
People who never suffered
are always so naive.
Look. For people like us,
flying and things like that
aren't miracles.
A convicted felon's daughter
becoming a civil servant,
people hanging out
and eating with me,
becoming friends
with a rich boy like you...
Those are miracles.
What did Han Seung Wook say?
About what?
What did he say when you told him?
Why do you want to know?
Do you think he told me
to drop dead...
because I'm his enemy's daughter?
He's coming soon.
He wants to see the case file
from back then,
so help him out.
Are you okay?
I'm fine although you found out.
And you're a close friend.
Who cares if he knows?
I was always uncomfortable with him,
unlike with you.
I'm out.
I'm comfortable
and he's uncomfortable.
Being uncomfortable
is very dangerous.
How did he get here so quickly?
Excuse me.
You should let her be
when she's like that.
She's too proud
to let people comfort her.
I'm not in a good mood today.
So tell me where the original is...
and go.
This isn't what you promised!
You said you'd get me out
if I testified!
Hey. You pulled cons all your life.
How can we take your word for it?
We need evidence.
You said you didn't believe me.
Why must I believe you
and share that with you?
Either find me a boat
to get me out of the country...
or put money into a Swiss account.
I need to see evidence...
to decide whether or not
I give you what you ask for.
What?
Do you think
this is a gambling house?
How dare you make bets?
You're the one betting right now.
You may have arrested me,
but I have the upper hand.
You need me to give you
the real list...
so that you can stop...
living your double life
as Hanju Group's daughter-in-law.
You're the one
who will be in a pickle...
if I change my mind.
You, prosecutor Cho Yeon Ju...
as well as Chairman Kang Mi Na.
Why you twerp.
This pot looks so natural...
calling the kettle black.
Hey!
You make it sound like
you did nothing wrong,
but I had you locked up.
You realize how many years
you'll rot in prison...
for lynching an active prosecutor?
You should be repenting!
Anyway! Give me a plan
that guarantees an out for me.
That way, I'll give you the list...
Hey, Bong Sik!
A plan?
You must think
you're someone important,
but you're just the knight
on a chessboard.
If I don't move you,
you can't do a single thing.
Do you think I'd just take it
if you change your mind?
Do you really think
I didn't plan for that?
I don't have a plan.
Darn it.
He didn't figure it out, did he?
Should I just strike a deal
with Chief?
No. I need the original list
to make it worthwhile...
for the chief to take the bait.
It's me.
So? Can I trust you?
Of course.
All of our boys who are strong
and can fight...
are in prisons or detention centers.
Our organization is a mess,
but you've totally lucked out.
He's a real weasel,
so you can't put your guard down.
Don't just keep him safe
from others.
Tell them to make sure
he doesn't do anything stupid.
Fraud, intimidation, as*ault.
I have different types of guys
spread out everywhere,
so don't you worry your little head.
[Central District Detention Center]
Don't worry
about the detention center.
I have people everywhere in there.
You want me to trust prison guards?
Not prison guards.
They're everywhere in the slammer.
I won't let you get stabbed,
so just stay there.
Is she protecting me
or abusing her power?
- Let's go!
- Go inside.
- Ma'am.
- Yes?
Ms. Han Sung Hye from Hanju Hotel...
- wishes to speak with you.
- Who?
Why?
I don't know. Do you want...
Tell her I'm not here.
Don't put her through.
She may call
through different routes,
so don't connect me
to any outside calls.
You can't reach them?
No. I've tried to contact them
through other prosecutors,
but no one can get through.
What are they up to?
You have a new cellmate.
[3 years ago,
Seopyung Central Wharf]
Once you leave,
never step foot here
in this country again.
- Live a quiet life.
- Got it. Fine.
What a strange world.
High and mighty conglomerates...
are associated with th*gs
in the outskirts like Seopyung.
Don't go around running your mouth.
[Prosecutor An Yu Jun]
Thank you.
Everyone's testimony
is perfectly consistent.
Everything points to Kang Myung Guk.
There isn't single evidence
to the contrary.
Who prepared these records?
The police officers
at Seopyung Police at the time.
No one is there anymore.
And the prosecutor who investigated?
He's the chief prosecutor
at Central District.
Did you look into it all already?
Yes, I did.
Last time when I came,
you said you were busy
meeting your quota,
so I thought you weren't interested.
Do you know...
who Kang Myung Guk is?
I found out.
Then it was because of Yeon Ju.
What is your relationship with her?
I have no reason to answer
personal questions.
I was wondering
if you had feelings for her.
"Feelings?"
Well...
I don't think so.
This is just a habit.
An old habit of mine.
A habit as a prosecutor, is that it?
Are you going out for lunch, Chief?
Not really.
Since I became the chief,
I can't even eat...
without worrying
about what others think.
I understand.
You can call me anytime.
I'm here for you.
Are you sure you have time for that?
Shouldn't you...
investigate Lee Bong Sik
and put him behind bars soon?
I'm sure he's racking
his brain right now...
to reduce his sentence.
He'll be happy to hand over
the list and everything.
What are you waiting for?
Don't worry.
I'm just waiting
for the perfect timing...
to catch all the bad guys at once.
Do a good job.
There are strange rumors
going around about you.
I can't trust you anymore.
You mean the rumors
about whistle-blowing?
Chief, don't you know how I am?
Whistle-blowing isn't really
my thing.
You can't fire a g*n without knowing
where the b*llet is going.
What if someone
on your side gets shot?
You don't have to worry.
Enjoy your lunch.
Go on in.
Me? Yes, sir.
Please.
[Providing a future in which order
and human rights coexist.]
Gosh, I'm too anxious.
Sir!
What is it?
Can I talk to the chief?
[Establishment of Law and Order]
What do you want?
Can I go out
and meet the prosecutor?
I have something to tell her.
Do you think this is a hotel?
Wait until the prosecutor
summons you.
You can't go out
just because you want to.
Then please at least call her.
Say I have something to tell her.
- Hello?
- This is Jungbu Detention Center.
Inmate number 3678, Lee Bong Sik,
wants to talk to Prosecutor Cho.
Hold, please.
The detention center is
asking for Prosecutor Cho.
The detention center?
Prosecutor Cho doesn't want to talk
to any outsiders for the time being.
The prosecutor must be busy.
But there will be
a questioning soon.
You can meet her then.
"He set fire to the factory
after getting unfairly fired.'
Back then, all the circumstances
seemed to point to him.
Since he even confessed,
no one raised any question.
But you're being suspicious?
If Hanju Group faked the death,
they may have faked
the culprit as well.
That's my guess.
Also, when I met with him,
I felt something was off.
And this man turns out to be
Prosecutor Cho's father?
- You must've been shocked.
- You bet.
Usually, she talks back to me
every time I say something.
But this time, all she said was
that she was sorry.
She felt like a different person.
Why don't you do as she says?
Try to understand her position.
Are you telling me
to cut ties with her?
If you're planning to continue
to dig into this case,
wouldn't that be best
for both of you?
Again?
Pardon?
Am I supposed to accept...
every decision made for me?
I had never thought
Hanju Group was mine.
But everyone told me
that I was the heir...
and that I couldn't do
all the things I wanted to.
But then one day,
they told me
Hanju Group was my uncle's...
and I should forget about
inheriting it.
Mi Na was the same.
Everyone told me
I was supposed to marry her.
When I finally began to like her,
they suddenly told me I couldn't.
Am I supposed to do that again?
If she wants to cut ties with me,
am I supposed to just accept it?
By the way,
I don't think I'm the person
who should be hearing this.
Why are you saying this to me?
Rest up.
I need to drive Chairman Kang home.
Any news on Kang Mi Na?
Lee Bong Sik said
he smuggled her into China,
so we're searching for her
following that route,
but there's something strange.
After a certain point,
she disappeared without a trace.
She vanished into thin air.
So I'm wondering,
could it be that...
Lee Bong Sik lied?
That's what he asked me
to relay to you.
I mean Mr. Han.
Lee Bong Sik once smuggled
himself out of the country...
with the help of a g*ng in Seopyung.
So I'm suspecting
she used the same route.
I'll ask Seopyung DPO to ask around.
Should I relay that to Mr. Han?
Yes, please.
You could talk to each other
directly.
What are you doing now?
And why do you look so down?
I'm sure you already heard.
I don't deserve to be
so full of myself anymore.
Why not?
I like that about you.
You don't have to be perfect
to be confident about yourself.
What did you do so wrong?
You were just unlucky
to be born to such parents.
My father drank and hit people
all the time. He was a mess.
But look how I turned out.
I even passed the bar exam...
and became the head of legal
at Hanju Group.
Once you're over 30,
you should stop benefiting from
or blaming your parents.
Be confident
regardless of what your father did.
Are you going to go home like that?
- Mr. No.
- What?
You're one wise man.
I know.
You're right. There's no reason
I should be hiding in the corner.
Who knows what that darn family
is cooking up right now?
Come on! You can do this!
See?
Even before you get home...
What's going on?
You've got some nerve
showing up here.
Look who's talking.
Guess who's been watching
Kang Mi Na the most closely so far.
It's me, Han Sung Woon's lover.
In the past decade,
I've been closely following...
every single thing you do.
As a news anchor with
more than a decade's experience,
I've become quite an expert...
when it comes to speech.
Similarly built people
tend to have similar voices.
But every person has
a unique way of speaking.
You can never fake that.
I've been thinking about it,
and the person I've talked to
in the garage...
was definitely not Kang Mi Na.
Deny it if you can.
What are you doing now?
You should know better than this.
What about you?
Are you also being fooled by her...
or are you fooling everyone
with her?
That's enough.
Glad you're here. No one would feel
more betrayed than you.
You're such a bad judge
of character.
You're right.
I've totally misjudged you.
Do you think I can't tell
whether my wife is real...
when I eat and sleep with her
every day?
Your false hope must be
making you delusional.
Stop talking nonsense.
You don't even have any evidence.
Hey, I am the proof.
Then I am the proof...
of your indecent private life
for the past decade.
If I disclose what I know,
whose reputation will be hurt?
- Go inside, honey.
- What?
And you should get going, Mr. No.
I'll head in
after this woman leaves.
That fool.
He doesn't even know...
whether or not
he's living with his real wife.
Look at him taking my side.
All for the sake of business.
If you want to keep your job
as a news anchor,
you'd better watch out.
If you try to mess with my wife
one more time,
I'll go public with our relationship
and take you down.
Come on. You must be tired.
- Do you have to leave early again?
- Yes, I do.
- Really? What time?
- Now.
Bye.
That arrogant little...
[Medicine]
[Cho Yeon Ju]
"Cho Yeon Ju?"
That stupid girl.
How dare she try to hold me back?
Is Mi Na not home yet?
She's very busy these days.
She won't be home until late.
You're asking every five minutes.
Clearly, you're anxious.
What are you talking about?
Just because I'm home all the time,
it doesn't mean
I don't know what's going on.
That's right.
Those who like to spend
but can't earn a single penny...
are always more in tune
with what's going on.
Don't pick on Mi Na
for no reason, Sung Hye.
Are you saying I picked on her
when she did nothing wrong?
You tell us, Ms. Kim.
Is there really nothing wrong
with Mi Na?
I don't know.
Ms. Kim, I know that
you're older than all of us,
but you seem to have forgotten...
the fact that
you're our mere employee.
- Ma'am.
- What is it?
Remember that day in 2001,
when it was pouring outside?
What happened when you overdosed...
on sleeping pills
and fainted in the bathroom?
No one cared about me...
and didn't even know
that I had fainted,
but you broke open the door...
and rushed me to the hospital.
Thanks to you, I am still alive.
Sung Mi.
You must remember
the 2006 World Cup.
The time when I lied to my parents
and went out?
Had you not tailed me,
I would've been kidnapped
by those freaks.
And Ms. Heo.
Do you remember
the late summer of 2014?
You still have the underwear
I got from the daughter-in-law...
of the Roil Group family, right?
Yes, of course.
The one who gave birth to four sons.
Thanks to her underwear,
I conceived Sun Woo.
But it's been useless
ever since then.
Ms. Han Sung Hye,
shall I talk about you too?
Now, please get out
if you're done eating.
Mi Na.
Mi Na.
I rarely see you these days.
You've been asking for me
since earlier. What's up?
Earlier? When?
Did you not ask for me?
Anyway, what's up?
You have entrusted Seung Wook...
with the full authority
to handle the merger,
but he's now requesting
a reinspection.
Right.
He's more of an expert than I am,
and I'm very busy at the moment.
He's going overboard...
because of what happened
in the past.
Can you meet him...
and try to caution him?
No, I can't.
What?
Hey, I don't believe the rumors.
Just let him know when you see him
for work-related stuff.
I have no reason to see him again.
Mi Na, are you really
going to be like this?
What are you doing?
- Spare me a minute.
- Sure.
Not you.
You.
What on earth did you do...
that Yumin is demanding
a reinspection?
Dad, are you sure you've talked
with the chief prosecutor?
Because they're not stepping in,
we may have to agree to do
this useless reinspection.
What? Like I said, I already spoke
with the chief prosecutor.
Do you expect me to plead
with a mere prosecutor?
You talked as though you'd take over
Yumin Hotel in no time.
You brought this...
upon yourself.
Can't you do your job better?
You've been coming home every day.
What are you up to this time?
I'm not like you.
Not everything I do
has a hidden agenda.
Sung Hye.
Usually, those in my position...
would compete against their sister
to inherit the family's company.
But I've never done that...
because I'm very objective
when it comes to myself.
You should learn to see yourself
more objectively too.
Thanks to me,
people think you're more capable
than you actually are.
Am I wrong?
Now that
Mi Na's situation has changed,
you're finally showing
your true colors.
That's an asset too, right?
It's something you can't do.
So...
stop looking down on me
whenever you see me.
Everyone is treating me like this
because of that darn hotel?
I'm just waiting
for the perfect timing...
to catch all the bad guys at once.
Who are the bad guys?
Chief, don't you know how I am?
Whistle-blowing isn't really
my thing.
You can't fire a g*n without knowing
where the b*llet is going.
What if someone
on your side gets shot?
So what? Is she planning
to stab me in the back?
Lee Bong Sik's been caught,
so it should be all over the news.
How come it's so quiet?
Can I really just sit back
and do nothing?
My children are busy
listing excuses...
whenever anything happens.
And those prosecutors
just become arrogant...
when I go out of my way
to treat them well.
Goodness.
Hello?
Yes. I understand.
Detention centers aren't graves.
Why do they always try
to bury their crimes here?
Darn it.
[Providing a future in which order
and human rights coexist.]
Errand boy.
My stomach hurts.
Get me a laxative.
Bring me all of it.
All of it?
My stomach hurts too much.
I want to go to the hospital.
They usually give us medicine
and tell us to ride it out.
But my stomach hurts too much.
I want to see a doctor.
Okay.
Thanks.
I took so many already.
Why am I not feeling it yet?
I should be going like mad by now.
What's wrong?
- Hey.
- Stop it.
Hey.
Help me!
- Hey.
- Help me!
What did you eat?
- Hey.
- What did you eat?
Hey! Hey, 3678! Wake up!
Hey.
- What did he eat?
- What's wrong with him?
I think I ate something...
Help!
Let go of me! Help!
Today's the deadline.
Are the documents for reinspection
not ready yet?
Wait a few minutes.
They'll be here soon.
Radio it in.
Lee Bong Sik, who had committed
a large art con and fled...
three years ago,
was arrested recently.
However, Lee, who was being held
in a detention center,
committed suicide and has died.
In his pocket...
was a list of what appears to be
clients from three years ago...
The list included people
of high class and status,
including Chairman K, who had been
summoned by a prosecutors' office.
The police are questioning
why this list...
Oh dear. Doesn't she mean
Chairman Kang Mi Na?
This isn't the time for you
to be here...
This is absurd.
When I questioned him the other day,
he showed no suicidal tendency.
When you brought Lee Bong Sik in,
what happened
in the interrogation room?
What?
What did you do
after turning off the camera?
Did you coerce him?
Why didn't you leave
any records of the interrogation?
What did you two talk about?
Is that why he died?
- Chief!
- What?
What, can't I yell?
What are you doing
in front of all these people?
I'm sorry.
I mean...
He wrote a suicide note
and hanged himself.
It's not like he leaves behind
any family.
He wanted to pay the price
for his crime...
and die.
That suicide note is suspicious.
So is the fact that he died
as soon as he was sent to solitary.
It was clearly not a suicide.
- We need an autopsy.
- Hey.
Don't you get me?
So what if it wasn't a suicide?
Don't make things worse.
Bury it quietly.
Okay.
Is Ms. Cho Yeon Ju out?
Do you have an appointment?
No.
I don't think
she'll be coming back today.
I knew you'd be here.
You always come here
when you feel cornered.
You annoyingly smart punk.
Is there anything you don't know?
You made me this way.
You never call anyone for help,
so I became a master at finding you.
Yu Jun.
Just until yesterday, I thought...
the universe was on my side
and let me catch Lee Bong Sik.
I was excited about
going to Chief and saying...
"You colluded with Hanju
and let Lee Bong Sik go, right?"
And following up with...
"Where is that hit-and-run k*ller
that you've let go a long time ago?"
"The one who k*lled my grandma?"
And I was excited about
investigating her case.
How could this happen
in just one day?
Was that why
you had been after Lee Bong Sik?
This is no time to drink.
If the list gets out,
you may have to summon
and investigate Kang Mi Na.
What will you do?
What else?
I'll ask the questions
and I'll answer them.
How easy is that?
Stop drinking.
Don't you need to go home tonight?
What if you slip and make a mistake?
A mistake?
Hey, who cares
if I make one mistake?
I worked my tail off
to become a prosecutor...
and slaved away at Seopyung...
and jumped through hoops
to get to Seoul Central.
While digging into
the Chief's corruption,
I finally caught the big fish‚
Lee Bong Sik.
And where should I begin now?
Do you even know how I feel?
I'm back to square one.
Do you know how that feels?
Of course not.
I may actually know how that feels.
That's what I do with you
all the time.
Hey, not again.
You've done enough.
Gosh, you must have
high standards for women.
That means you're really smart.
You can never drink with me again.
Never in your life...
We'll just work together, okay?
Okay! Let's drink.
Cheers.
[4 years ago]
Since I never drink with you,
did you decide to show up
when I'm drinking?
I guess there's not much to do
at Seoul Central these days.
You obviously have too much time.
That's why you come
all the way here and talk nonsense.
This is not okay.
Hello? Is this Seoul Central DPO?
Let me talk to the chief!
Why are the prosecutors
slacking off these days?
Do you still have feelings for me?
Ma'am, I need a glass.
- What is he talking about?
- The receiver cannot be reached...
I have no feelings for you.
Feelings change all the time.
They can even disappear.
So I stopped having any feelings
for you long ago.
To me,
you're a habit now.
A habit.
A habit...
becomes part of you.
It never goes away.
If you know how I feel,
can you hold my hand?
I'm getting too good at this.
Just by looking at your face,
I know you're turning me down.
Still, you're becoming
more and more rational.
Before, you asked me
to give you a hug...
if I was going to turn you down.
I knew holding a hand
wouldn't be too much to ask.
You slapped me in the face
when I asked for a hug.
Still, I slapped you
with my left hand.
Asking someone out in a way that
makes the person uncomfortable...
doesn't feel right.
That's why I waited.
When I saw you with Mr. Han
at Seopyung,
I realized something.
That I might lose you for good.
Yu Jun.
I think you should go home.
It doesn't feel right...
drinking and whining
with someone I just turned down.
It'd only be okay in Hollywood.
You never give me any chance,
do you?
Don't drink too much and go home.
- Bye.
- See you.
Gosh, I really have
no one to call now.
This is why drinking alone is nice.
Whatever happens tonight,
no one will know anything
as long as I forget everything.

Is this it?
Or this?
There it is!
I need to get in.
But the door won't open.
Maybe this isn't my place.
That's right. I'm supposed to go
to Kang Mi Na's house.
Father! Mother!
Husband! Sisters-in-law!
Open the door for me! Open it!
Why won't they open the door?
I live in two different places,
have two different phones,
and have two different jobs.
Where am I supposed to go?
[Send SOS messages]
[Add recipient]
I'll come to your side right away...
if something happens.
[SOS message being sent]
[SOS message]
[Kang Mi Na, SOS! I need help!]
Yeon Ju!
Yeon Ju!
Gosh, you reek of alcohol.
Hey, what are you doing here?
How did you find me?
I want to go have another drink
with you.
- Let's go for a drink.
- Let me help you up.
- Let's go!
- Easy.
Your place is here.
That's right. This is my place.
Don't look! I said, don't look!
I won't. Go ahead.
Ding dong
Darn it. What's wrong with my hand?
You. Do it right.
Okay.
I'll press it for you
since you need to go in.
No! How dare you...
ask me for the code?
An Yu Jun presses it on his own
and goes in as he pleases.
What's the big deal?
You have a point.
Gosh. Okay. Fine.
Guess my door code.
My code.
Okay. Let's see how many tries
it takes.
Is it your birthday?
My birthday?
Like my birthday is so special.
It's not like
anyone ever celebrated it.
- Happy birthday!
- Happy birthday!
We should celebrate. Come here.
Then... Is it...
an ex-boyfriend's birthday?
Wrong. An ex-boyfriend?
Give me a break.
How could someone
from the ghetto like me...
pass the bar exam with a boyfriend?
If I went out with a boyfriend
and stuff,
how could I get revenge? Seriously.
That's good.
You'll never guess it.
It's the date I must never forget
for the rest of my life.
It's something in here...
that I can never ever forget.
This is my grandmother.
The day she passed away
is the same as your birthday.
[Choi Seung Ok,
September 16, 1939-October 2, 2007]
How did we get inside?
Because I entered the code.
How did you know the code?
I didn't tell you.
I have my ways.
- That's incredible.
- Careful.
- Sit here.
- I am flabbergasted.
How... Gosh.
What are you doing here? Get out.
Why are you like this alone?
Where's An Yu Jun?
Yu Jun?
Why would he be here?
I sent him home earlier.
- You sent him home?
- Of course.
That punk came
when I didn't ask him to...
and kept saying stupid things.
I'm very strict
about setting boundaries.
You should go too.
Get out of my face. Go.
I won't go.
What?
I won't go.
I came because you asked me to.
You asked for help.
Why are you telling me to go?
I won't leave because I'm told,
or let people take things from me.
That is why I came to Korea.
Whose daughter you are,
whom you resemble,
who likes you...
None of that matters to me.
I'm going to go for what I want
and do what I want to do.
I won't let anyone
take from me again.
[There will be an epilogue shortly.]
[Epilogue]
[People's Republic of China
Passport]
Please remove your sunglasses.
There is a rumor that the list
of art clients...
found in Lee Bong Sik's pocket...
includes Yumin Group's chairman,
Kang Mi Na,
who recently caused a disturbance
with her reckless driving...
not too long ago.
The public sentiment toward her
was very negative...
due to this incident.
It still is.
Chairman Kang Mi Na
is remaining silent.
What are your thoughts?
It was all over the news
three years ago as well.
Once Lee Bong Sik was arrested...
[One the Woman]
I've lost my mind.
It's okay.
I'm used to not remembering things.
I can handle it.
Maybe Lee Bong Sik's death
really shook her.
What's wrong with her?
All of this happened
because of Father.
I'm not asking you for help.
I'm just relaying a message.
We'll close Lee Bong Sik's matter
with Kang Mi Na...
and we'll call it even. Okay?
Don't tell me anything.
I'll have to relay it if you do.
Uncle, I heard...
that you might join me
instead of Sung Hye.
Should I tell you
why you're unable...
to go after Kang Mi Na?
