01x11 - The Nightmare

[bunniefuu]

She's here.

Ms. Kim Hye-joo.

Did you really k*ll someone 20 years ago?

-Tell us!
-Please answer us.

-Is this true?
-Were you involved in someone's death?

Kim Jae-eun.

Yes?

You k*lled him. You m*rder*r.

Get out of here.
How dare you show up here?

Get out. Get out of here now!

My child died because of you.

m*rder*r.

THE NIGHTMARE

CLEAN, HONEST, AND COMPETENT WORKER
NAM JOONG-DO

Goodness.

-Hello.
-Hi, Ms. Kim.

-Go ahead and order.
-Okay.

-Thank you, ma'am.
-You're welcome.

We'll have six cups
of hot americano to go.

Okay, six cups of americano.

Can you change one of them
to a non-coffee drink?

My husband doesn't drink coffee.

He actually does these days.

Really?

Then forget about that.

No. Please change one of them to tea.

-Five coffees and one tea.
-Sure.

So what we were doing was…

You know the mill lady, right?

Of course you do.

We were just visiting her
regarding the bill.

Assemblyman Nam is
coming to the district office

after attending the hearing
at the Sinyang-gu office.

I see.

And…

Things must have been hard for you.

Sorry?

Right.

About that…

I never got to thank you
for helping out with my son's funeral.

Thank you so much.

No, Ms. Kim. I was talking
about the incident in Youngsan.

The suicide.

Right.

Thank you for making such a big decision.

Senior Secretary Kim Bit-na

spent all afternoon yesterday
writing up your statement.

She really put her heart and soul into it.

I see. Thank you.

Wait, did you say yesterday afternoon?

Yes.

Yesterday afternoon.

Let's disclose it
before Assemblyman Kang does.

Will Ms. Kim be okay with that?

This will cause a huge stir.

She had seen this coming
and previously agreed.

We've just been waiting
for the right time.

Please write up a statement.

I won't publicize your story

until you give your consent.

We will do our absolute best.

Yes. We'll work hard.

Thank you.

Honey.

-Hello, sir.
-Hello.

I heard you were here.

I'll bring the drinks.

Let me help you.

Were you out buying paper?

Yes.

-Honey.
-Yes?

They just told me something.

The decision to disclose
the Youngsan incident…

Did you already make up your mind
yesterday afternoon

before asking me about it last night?

Is that true?

Yes, it is.

You two go ahead.

-I'll stay here for a bit.
-Okay.

Thank you for the drinks.

Right. Here's your tea, sir.

Thank you.

We'll be going then.

I'll be honest.

It's true.

I had already made up my mind.

Like I told you yesterday,

Assemblyman Kang agreed
to keep it a secret,

but it's a matter of time
before Ms. Jin or her mother discloses it.

Even if you're innocent,

you'll still be dragged through the mud.

That's why I wanted to get a head start.

We were just preparing in advance.
That's all.

"That's all"?

How could you say that?

You should've asked me first.

I did ask you.

Sure, but it was after you had
already made up your mind.

If it was already decided,

why did you even bother
to ask for my permission?

What if I said no?

Would you have still gone through with it?

No.

I could have if I had wanted to,

but I asked you because I respect you.

I thought you were going
to give me your permission.

I don't even know what to say right now.

Do you even know
how difficult it was for me

to make that decision yesterday?

I'm sorry.

It was wrong of me.

I don't know when they'd make a move,
so I wanted to be ready.

And I got ahead of myself.

I'm sorry.

Hello, sir.

-Hello.
-Hello.

-Hello, sir.
-Hello.

You're glowing after being on a date.

Does it show?

I have a tight schedule today.
Shall we begin?

-Yes, sir.
-Yes, sir.

Sir, would you like some tea?

I'll have a cup of coffee, please.

What?

What did you say, Soon-hong?

He mentioned Mr. Park?

I'm telling you.

Mr. Park of Yangcheon-ri, Youngsan,
is great at his job.

How does he know him?

How would I know that?

What should we do?

I'll take care of this,

so you should lie low.

Lying low won't resolve this.

What if we end up in big trouble?

If this blows up,

I'll be the one
in the biggest trouble, not you.

The general election is around the corner.

I'll be in trouble too.

I trusted that you'd take care of this,

but you're telling me
that he knows Mr. Park.

Then we should meet up
and come up with a plan.

How are you going to keep
that assemblyman's mouth shut?

Just stay out of it!
You don't know anything.

Don't you know

that Nam Joong-do's wife
was the one who k*lled Seung-h*?

Soon-hong.

What did you--

Nam Joong-do's wife is the one

who's responsible for Seung-h*'s death.

Do you mean

Kim Jae-eun?

Hello, is this Ji-hoon's uncle?

I'm Ji-hoon's…

Yes.

Have you been well?

Is your mother doing well?

I'd like to send you a parcel,

and I want to make sure
I have the right address.

JICHEONG-DONG POST OFFICE

He went to the Seoul headquarters?

Yes.

Were you supposed to meet him?

No, I just stopped by.

We filled out the form.

One minute, please.

Thank you.

Then let me introduce our facilities.

This way, please.

Hello, I'm interested
in taking some golf lessons.

I see.

Then let me show them around.

-This way.
-Let's go.

Let's go.

Our system lets you
immediately monitor your swings.

You can also practice putting
in an environment

similar to a real golf course.

We have plenty of slots
so you can come in anytime

for practice or lessons.

Hey, Ki-young.

Hey, Hye-joo.

Have you been well?

I'm on my way to Seoul.

Can you make

some time for me?

Right now?

Sure.

I'm off to the district office.

You're meeting Mr. Choi there, right?

Yes.

If we meet here,
Assemblyman Kang might see us.

Right.

You know,

to be honest.

I'm a bit concerned about Mr. Choi.

Why?

He's definitely doing the right thing

by handing us the evidence
for the land speculation.

But in a way, he's betraying
his wife and her family.

Think about it.
Once Ms. Jin finds out about this,

she'll feel extremely betrayed.

Seeing how Mr. Choi asked us
to keep this a secret,

I don't think he wants a divorce.

If I imagine this happened
between me and my husband,

I would feel uneasy about it
even if it's the right thing to do.

There's no perfect secret
that can be kept forever.

I'm sure there is.

Sorry?

This "perfect secret"
you're talking about.

I'm sure there is one.

Of course.

We'll keep Mr. Choi's secret at all costs.

Right.

-I'll be off then.
-Okay.

See you later.

I'm sorry.

About Seung-h*…

Could you apologize to them?

You may not have done anything wrong,

but you understand the pain
of losing a family member.

I realized what I said that day

must have hurt you deeply.

I'm sorry.

Seung-hee means so much to me,

and I was being emotional.

I actually only decided
to help your husband

for her sake.

I want her

to see her mother for who she truly is.

I think it would be best for her.

That's why I decided to do this.

But wouldn't she feel hurt
if she ever finds out?

Probably.

But I had no choice.

I'm worn out,

but she's even more exhausted than me.

I want Seung-hee

to break free from her mother's grip

and find happiness.

That's why I took a risk.

By the time this is over,

she'll have changed in one way or another.

Whichever way that may be,

she'll be better off.

I trust you.

Everything will work out, Ki-young.

Thanks.

I mean…

Why aren't there any real estate agencies?

I need to ask for directions.

Drive safely.

-Okay.
-Bye.

What?

This all just

brings back some memories.

I really liked you back then.

Actually, I liked you too.

Wait,

so why did you turn me down?

Because of Seung-hee.

She was head over heels for you.

Right.

She really was.

Wait.

Why is he here?

What is he doing here?

Kim Jae-eun.

Right.

Thank you for helping my husband

expose the Youngsan land speculation.

I'm sure it wasn't easy for you.

Hey!

-Ms. Lee.
-You!

Are you the one who ratted out
Mr. Park to Nam Joong-do?

How could you stab me
in the back like this?

After all I've done for you?

You.

Kim Jae-eun.

-Ms. Lee, please don't do this.
-Hey!

Did you think you could
hide from me forever

after k*lling my son?

You b*tch!

Please stop.

How could you side with her and betray me?

It's not like that.

You're lying through your teeth!
I heard everything!

Hye-joo, go inside right now. Go.

Were you excited to screw me over

with the girl who k*lled my son?

I said it wasn't like that!

Mark my words.

I won't let you two

get away with this.

Hye-joo, I'm sorry. I should go.

Where is it?

Mom, I'm home.

Mom…

Where did she go?

-Hey, Mom. Where are--
-Seung-hee.

Get a divorce this instant--

Hello?

Mom.

Mom!

Ms. Lee.

Hey.

Give me back my phone.

Soo-bin.

What's the hurry?

We haven't seen each other in ages.

Please. Give me back my phone.

Fine.

Did you bring the money?

After I get my phone back.

All right.

Here. Take it.

Thanks.

Is there something important
on that phone?

You could have gotten
a new one with a million won.

I'm used to my old phone.

SEND



I sent it.



Thanks.

Right.

I met Ji-hoon's mom.

Ji-hoon's mom?

How?

Well…

I got a call from an unknown number.

So I picked up, thinking it was you.

But it was Ji-hoon's mom.

By the way,

I heard you stayed at Ji-hoon's place.

Why there?

Were you even that close?

You didn't tell him
that I was pregnant, did you?

What am I, crazy?

It's nothing to be proud of.

His family is rich.

His dad is a reputable assemblyman.

That's why I went there.

I thought I could
get something out of them.

So?

Were you able to?

No.

They barely have any money.

Right?

Anyway, she seemed quite upset

that you disappeared without saying a word

after she cared for you out of pity.

Don't worry.

I didn't tell her that we were in touch.

But then again,
she didn't seem interested.

Did she

really say that?

Yes.

Her husband is an assemblyman after all.

Why do you think she treated you well?

She was using you
to improve her husband's image.

The election is around the corner.

Right. Here.

She asked me to give it to you.

It's the stuff you left.

Wait.

Soo-bin left this at our place.

If you see her,
could you return it to her?

She probably needs it.

Okay.

Thank you.

She didn't want you
to come back to pick it up.

I guess she doesn't want
to see you ever again.

He's not picking up.

CHOI KI-YOUNG [YOUNGSAN]

Shall we go?

Yes, sir.

HYE-JOO

Is it him?

What? No.

HYE-JOO

Hi, honey.

You met Ms. Lee Yoo-sin?

When?

Just now.

She knows that I'm your wife

and that you're meeting with Ki-young.

I called to warn you

in case this could cause a problem.

I see.

You must've been scared.

I'm okay.

I'll take care of this.

Don't worry.

You trust me, right?

Yes.

Where are you?

In that case, get yourself home.

Call me right away if she comes again.

Okay.

Also,

about earlier…

I'm sorry.

Go home.

Bye.

Lee Yoo-sin found out about everything.

Not a problem.

We can speed things up.

Thank you.

That one's for you.

No, thanks.

You can drink mine.

What?

Do you think I drugged it?

Hey.

Come on, I'm not that low.

It's safe. Drink up.

Cheers.

Hey.

Yes?

Let's break up.

Okay.

Hello.

Hello.

AHN PSYCHIATRIC CLINIC

I didn't recognize you the other day.

It had been so long.

Ms. Kim Soo-bin.

You must have been very worried.

The girl had such severe stomach pain.

Look.

Like I asked you that day,

please keep that day's visit

a secret between us.

Yes, of course.

Thank you.

Hello.

So…

Is there any way you could
speed up selling my restaurant?

I'd really appreciate it.

Okay.

Goodbye.

Did she get an ab*rtion?

Well…

It's better safe than sorry.

Hey, Ye-eun.

Can you do me a favor?

Hey, it's the lady from TV!

My parents always curse at her.

Hey.

What do your parents say about me?

They say you're greedy
and that you get nothing done.

My sister and I were
fighting over food the other day

and knocked over our bowls.

Ever since then,

my mom gives us food on separate trays.

You should stop being greedy
and use a tray instead.

Okay.

I'm sorry.

Excuse us.

Let's go.

Follow me.

LEGISLATION AND JUDICIARY COMMITTEE
MEETING ROOM

You have to follow the law!

What is the meaning of this?

-Sir.
-What do you think this committee is?

-I agree.
-Sir.

-Please let us speak!
-Attention.

-Sir!
-Attention!

I ask the members of the committee

to raise their hands
and ask for the right to speak

before taking the floor.

I request your cooperation
during this meeting.

Sir.

I just find this completely ridiculous.

-Ridiculous? How could you say that?
-Wait!

-Once again…
-That's enough!

-I'd like to…
-Good grief.

ask all of you

to cooperate with me here.

Keep your mouth shut, Lee Soo-min!

Show some respect!

Assemblyman Kang.

You owe her an apology.

I apologize.

Unbelievable.

Sir.

We are against this.

Assemblyman Kang.

If you have questions about the bill,

discuss it with us and ask questions.

Stop picking a fight
with the Daehan Party.

"Picking a fight"?

Goodness.

You failed to convince us.

You should admit to your faults.

Good grief.

How could you accuse me
of picking a fight?

My goodness.

-It would be easier to talk to my dog.
-I agree.

Did you just compare me to a dog?

Dear Assemblyman Kang.

This is the National Assembly.

The language you use
when you're drinking at a bar

has no place here
in the National Assembly.

You should know better.

Please apologize for your remark.

I apologize.

How may I help you?

I want to get my card reissued.

Sure.

Would you like the receipt?

BALANCE: 1.3 MILLION WON

I have 1.3 million?

I need two million won.

And tell them about your call girls?

Fine.

-Give me your account number.
-Now we're talking.

-Kim Soo-bin.
-What?

Have it wired to your account.

-To mine?
-Yes.

-Cheers!

Hey, careful.

You're spilling it.

JEONGSUN MEDICAL CENTER

MISSED CALLS
ASSEMBLYMAN NAM JOONG-DO

Mom!

Mom, are you okay?

Did she get a CT scan?

Isn't a cerebral contusion dangerous?

What did they say? Does she need surgery?

No. Thankfully,
the injuries aren't serious.

She just needs to stay here
and rest up for a few days.

They said she'll be awake soon,
so don't worry.

Thank goodness.

I just don't get it.

She can't even drive.

Why would she drive to Seoul?

If something happens to her as well,

I won't be able to go on.

With Dad and Seung-h* gone,

she's the only family I have left.

Don't cry.

She'll be fine.

It's okay.

It's okay.

We have now reviewed
all the items on the agenda.

Thank you, everyone.

This meeting is dismissed.

-Good work.
-Good work.

Good work.

-Good work.
-Let's go.

Sir, your car is out front.

-Assemblyman Nam.
-Okay.

Can we talk over tea
or a meal sometime soon?

Sure.

By the way,

about the criminal law amendment
you're planning to propose…

-Yes?
-I also signed the motion,

but it's not likely to pass
the committee's review.

You have a plan, right?

Yes, I'm preparing one.

Are you going to bring it up
at our next meeting?

Probably.

-I'll be in touch with you…
-Hyeong-tae.

Yes, sir.

Look into this new bill
that Nam Joong-do is planning to propose.

Yes, sir.

I just don't understand Assemblyman Kang.

What?

Considering that you're proposing
the bill at the next meeting,

perhaps you should have held back today.

That would have been ideal.

But I tried to speak as gently as I could.

Seeing how Choi Ki-young
still hasn't gotten back to me--

CHOI KI-YOUNG [YOUNGSAN]

Speak of the devil.

Hello, Mr. Choi.

Hello, sir.

We were supposed to meet today.

I'm sorry I couldn't call sooner.

Something came up.

I heard you and your mother-in-law
met my wife today.

Yes.

That's why I'm calling.

I'm having second thoughts

about handing over the evidence.

May I ask what changed your mind?

My mother-in-law had a car accident
after seeing Hye-joo.

Please don't tell Hye-joo…

I mean, your wife about this.

I'm sure she's already quite shaken up.

I understand.

I hope Ms. Lee gets better soon.

I'll call you again.

Okay. Thank you.

He's not going to hand it over.

One minute, sir.

Hello, Reporter Gil Na-hui.

Sorry for calling so late.
Have you been well?

I wanted to ask you for a favor.

Don't you have a correspondent
at the Sinyang Police Station?

There was a car accident today
in Jicheong-dong, Sinyang-gu.

I'd like to know
where the victim is hospitalized.

Were you on the phone with Ms. Kim?

Yes.

She said don't worry about work
and take good care of Ms. Lee.

I see.

I'm so glad you got here early.

You must have come here
straight from the headquarters.

Thank you.

Sure.

Mr. Choi is having second thoughts
about handing over the evidence.

Then what should we do?

Seung-hee's mother knows who I am.

Let's go on TV.

TV?

Let's go on TV
and tell everyone what happened.

No way.

I can't do that.

We have no time.

TV is the most effective platform
to disclose what happened.

But whatever I say will sound less sincere

if you're not there with me.

After all, I'm still a third party.

Since there was no investigation,

there's no proof that you didn't lie.

In order for the public to believe us,

you have to be there yourself.

I'll be right by your side.

So don't be too scared.

I'm sorry, honey.

I can't do it.

-Honey--
-I can't!

I'm too scared.

I'm scared of what might happen
after the incident comes to light.

And you want me to talk about it on TV?

Honey.

I really can't do that.

Can't you just issue a press release?

As I said,

we must show our sincerity
since we have no solid proof.

And to do that,
you need to appear in public.

Don't tell me

you already made up your mind again
before asking me to do this.

-Did you really?
-Hye-joo.

You didn't mention anything
about going on TV yesterday!

Things suddenly took a turn today.

I didn't plan for this.

Don't fight.

Yoon-seo.

Why do you guys keep fighting these days?

Yoon-seo, we weren't fighting.

Honey.

You should go on TV.

What happened back then

wasn't your fault.

So go on TV

and speak up for yourself.

Then Dad will make sure

that the bill gets passed.

Right, Dad?

You will do that, right?

Even if it gets passed,

it won't affect your case, right?

But if you muster up the courage
and appear on TV

and if Dad pushes the bill
through the National Assembly,

it'll help anyone who's going through

the same thing as you did.

I understand what you're worried about.

But…

it's inevitable for the greater good.

Mom.

Not only do you have Dad,
but you have me as well.

So Mom,

stay strong.

I love you.

She didn't want you
to come back to pick it up.

I guess she doesn't want
to see you ever again.

-Mom.
-Yes?

You're being so nice
to your daughter-in-law lately.

You used to bad-mouth her. I'm jealous.

It's not because I like her.

It's because she's pregnant
with my grandchild.

I hope she doesn't have
another miscarriage.

I want a grandchild.

Hello.

What brings you here?

Is Ms. Lee doing okay?

Yes.

That's a relief.

I was worried
that she might still be unconscious.

I mean…

She found out
you were going to hand us the evidence

but hasn't done anything about it.

So I assumed she was unconscious.

I'll cut to the chase.

I heard you were having second thoughts

about handing us the evidence.

Is it because
you don't want to shock your wife

while her mother is injured?

So it would be really bad

if I were to tell Ms. Jin myself…

about this whole arrangement.

I'll be waiting for your call.

I'm quite the impatient type,

so I can't wait for too long.

Tell me about it.

Why did that kid
go into the Han River while drunk?

Seriously.

Have you ever imagined
attending the funeral

of a friend's child at our age?

-Never.
-They must be devastated.

What are you doing?

What do you think you're doing?

Gosh. What did I do?

I saw everything.

Miss, he was groping you, right?

I didn't grope anyone.

Stop being so ridiculous.

Are you okay?

That man touched you without your consent.

Am I right?

By any chance, did Ji-hoon
force you in any way without your consent?

I can take care of myself.

Sorry?

Look.

Touch me again,

and I will k*ll you.

Give me some time

to think about going on TV.

Okay, I will.

But please understand if I decide not to.

Okay.

Honey.

About what you said earlier.

I really hadn't

made up my mind before asking you.

Okay.

I'll try to believe you.

ALBUM

MOVE TO TRASH

We just spoke
with Assemblyman Lee Chi-hwan.

For Part Two,

we have Chairwoman Woo Jin-seok
and Assemblyman Nam Joong-do

from the Daehan Party with us.

Hello.

-Hello.
-Hello.

The general election is
only six months away.

Following his wife's recent hit-and-run,

Assemblyman Ko Ji-seop has left the party.

Some are questioning
if the Daehan Party is

doing enough to keep
their members in order.

They are criticizing
the party's lack of discipline

with the elections around the corner.

Chairwoman Woo,

what are your thoughts on this?

Our party had no intention

of defending Assemblyman Ko
regarding what happened.

That's why, even after he left our party,

I urged him to resign from office.

And as for keeping our members in order,

the chief advisor who was
recently caught soliciting sex

works for an assemblyman
of the Nation and People's Party.

But both the party

and the assemblyman
for whom the advisor worked

have swept this under the rug

without any disciplinary action.

I see.

So in the upcoming general election…

I'm looking at our real-time comments,

and people are saying

that you're being a hypocrite,
Assemblyman Nam.

I know this is uncomfortable,
but would you like to say something?

Sure.

I would like to apologize once again

for all the disgraceful incidents

that have occurred within my family.

It will never happen again.

For the reformation of Korean politics,

we will start by thoroughly
observing our own members

with a zero-tolerance policy
for lying and hypocrisy.

That is the resolve of the Daehan Party
for this upcoming general election.

I see.

Your term ends right after
the general election next year, correct?

Yes. Next May.

Goodbye, ma'am.

You came together today.

NAM JI-HOON

HUSBAND

POOREUN EUNHA MEMORIAL PARK

Hey.

What's up?

Honey.

This may shock you, but…

What's going on?

What?

What did you say?

Ji-hoon…

committed sexual as*ault.

So I'll be holding
a press conference soon.

Honey, wait--

Hold on. What do you mean?

Ji-hoon did what to whom?

I was…

sexually assaulted.

TROLLEY

Your son was a hindrance
when he was alive.

Has he become a political tool now?

-How could you do this?
-You just crossed the line.

Tell him to leave the party!

Should I write a post online?

She's playing us right now.

You don't believe me, do you?

Break your promise again, and it's over.

-You didn't use Ji-hoon, did you?
-Are you insane?

Nam Joong-do, you piece of sh*t!

Whoever wins the public's support
will be the one telling the truth.
