(This is a work of fiction. All characters, places, incidents, )
(and organizations portrayed in this drama are fictitious.)
If you don't know where you are, tell me what you see.
I can find you. Just tell me what you see.
Hi, Chan.
It's about Professor Oh. Do you know where she is?
Where is Professor Oh now?
Why? Did something happen?
I heard something explode while on the phone with her. I must hurry.
She's in danger now.
Seokpo Fishing Spot.
She went to Seokpo Fishing Spot to meet Hong Seok Pal.
I'm calling from Seokpo Fishing Spot.
A car just exploded and caught fire.
Someone's been hurt. There's a chance that he's dead.
(Episode 7)
Hong Seok Pal's car just exploded at Seokpo Fishing Spot.
It's highly likely that he's dead. Look into it.
What is this?
Let's go there and find out.
(For now, Hong Seok Pal is the prime suspect.)
It looks like a fire broke out over there.
Please make a U-turn.
- What? - I must follow that car.
Hurry. Make a U-turn now.
Gosh, what is going on?
I'll drive. Get out of the car.
How did you find me here?
You look like you're about to faint.
Come on. Get out.
Hey! Do you think you own this road?
Are you not hurt? Are you all right?
My gosh, Ms. Oh. Why didn't you pick up earlier?
I'm headed to the fishing spot now too.
Anyway, why did Hong Seok Pal's car suddenly explode?
But before that, are you all right?
Yes, I'm okay.
No. I'm on my way home now.
Yes. He contacted me first, asking to meet up.
That's why I went there, but his car suddenly exploded.
How are we going to put together a list of suspects?
Is there anyone in particular that you suspect?
Hong Seok Pal.
Who's Hong Seok Pal?
The owner of the hostess bar Park So Young worked at.
What? Really?
I watched all the videos that people took at the scene that day.
Don't you remember seeing him elsewhere?
Oh, he's that guy!
My gosh.
So he broke into Professor Oh's building...
and stole Park So Young's phone?
He owns the hostess bar where Park So Young worked...
and had something to do with her death.
That's why he stole her phone.
Okay. He must've stolen Park So Young's phone...
because something on that phone could put him at a disadvantage.
But why did that man, Hong Seok Pal, break into Professor Oh's building?
He's not connected to Professor Oh in any way.
I bet it was because of that USB flash drive.
It contains Hansu Group's top-secret files.
Rumour has it that Hong Seok Pal has been working...
for Chairman Han as his henchman who does his dirty work.
I see. Hansu must've ordered him to bring it to them.
That would be the most logical guess,
but he's working for TK Law Firm, not Hansu.
What?
Choi Ju Wan, TK's managing partner.
What? So these people were all involved in it?
Darn, I can't believe he is the managing partner of the firm.
That crazy scumbag.
We'll deal with the breaking and entering case later.
Let's identify the murder suspect first.
That's more urgent.
If Hong Seok Pal indeed killed Park So Young...
You know, that thing. The prenatal paternity test.
It might have had something to do with it.
The fact that she got a prenatal paternity test done...
means the man denied being the father of her baby,
which tells us that the pregnancy made him very uncomfortable.
Bingo.
And it tells us that there's a high chance that he was...
one of her customers at the bar or her sugar daddy.
Someone who would take a big hit if word got out.
For example,
the VVIPs at the hostess bar.
You know everything, don't you?
Anyway, who are the VVIPs?
Han Sung Bum, the chairman of Hansu Group.
"Together for Our Future". Assemblyman Lee In Soo.
And the last one is...
Choi Tae Guk, the chairman of TK Law Firm.
But that's too much of a stretch, don't you think?
The head of a conglomerate,
a law firm chairman, and a presidential candidate...
ordered a hostess bar owner...
to kill a girl who worked there?
Okay, let's say that's true.
But they chose to do it in TK's rooftop garden?
Don't you think this theory is a little too far-fetched?
Exactly. Why there, of all places?
I mean, it'd make them uncomfortable.
Hong Seok Pal had the means to track her down in real time.
He must've followed her, knowing that she was headed to TK.
So he followed her all the way there.
Then for some reason...
He ended up pushing her?
Well, it's not impossible.
Maybe it was a spur-of-the-moment thing.
Or maybe they got into a fight.
We should keep an open mind to all possibilities.
Hong Seok Pal and the VVIPs at the hostess bar.
You may find this information helpful.
Rumour has it that Park So Young and Chairman Han were quite close.
People in that industry say so.
That's gross.
But I'll start at the clinic where Park So Young used to go.
- My belly is getting so big. - I'm sure...
she mentioned something about the father of the baby.
Jin Myung, do you like iced vanilla lattes?
I'll find out what Chairman Han was up to...
the night Park So Young died.
I still have my sources.
Who ordered fried chicken?
- Did you order this? - We didn't order fried chicken.
Then Chun Poong and I will look into Hong Seok Pal.
I'm a good actor, you know.
You can totally count on me, Chan.
(Seokpo Fishing Spot)
(Legal Clinic Center)
I heard it from the coordinator at Park So Young's OB-GYN clinic.
She said the father of the baby was super rich.
Park So Young took a cab in front of the hostess bar.
And I confirmed that...
Hong Seok Pal took his car to follow her soon after.
For now, Hong Seok Pal is the prime suspect.
It was Hong Seok Pal.
The person who broke into your building and hurt you.
The one who stole Park So Young's phone at her sister's place.
It was all him.
I know.
He visited the firm a few days ago.
He said he had something to say about Park So Young.
He caused a scene and insisted that he must meet with Chairman Choi,
but he was forced to leave.
Something about Park So Young?
I gave him my business card when I ran into him,
implying that he could call me if he had anything to say about her.
Then he called me.
"Park So Young. What if I killed her?"
"What?"
When I got there, I saw Hong Seok Pal...
sitting in the driver's seat.
As I was walking toward him, he suddenly collapsed to the side.
It was so sudden that I couldn't do anything.
Does it mean he took his own life?
Because he felt a pang of guilt about killing Park So Young?
I'm not sure.
Why? Did what I just said get your attention now?
I get it. You're partially responsible...
for the way she died.
What are you talking about?
Come find me at Seokpo Fishing Spot now.
Does it make sense that he said this when he was planning his suicide?
He said you were partially responsible.
So maybe, he was trying to deliberately put you in danger too?
I'm talking about the car explosion.
You could've gotten hurt too.
What if he didn't kill himself?
Just like Park So Young,
what if it's murder disguised as suicide?
You should get going. It's getting late.
My housekeeper put it there, but I don't have a green thumb.
You should really get going now. I'm fine.
You have a big couch.
What?
What are you doing here?
I need to get some sleep.
What?
I'm tired. I need to sleep.
What? If you're doing this because you're worried about me,
you can just go home. I'm really okay now.
One moment.
What's he doing?
She has such a nice bed. Why would she be cold in this room?
Let me borrow this blanket. I'm cold.
Hey, I'm really fine. You can go home.
If he indeed took his own life,
he probably blew up his own car to hurt Professor Oh too.
But if it's murder disguised as suicide...
Who did it? And why?
Why deliberately endanger Professor Oh?
No!
Why won't this open?
Who are you?
Professor Oh.
Are you all right?
Professor Oh.
It was a dream.
Why me?
Why? Just why?
Why hide just to cry? It's lame.
Why are you sitting next to me if you think I'm lame?
Because I know that you're cool.
You just said I was lame.
We all have...
more than one side.
There could be dozens... No, hundreds.
So having a couple of lame sides really isn't a big deal.
You're still cool.
Cool, my foot.
So...
just bawl your eyes out when you want to cry...
and say that you're not okay when you're stressed.
Even if you do that, it won't change how cool you are.
When I barely manage to get over a hurdle,
there's another one waiting for me.
And another one.
It makes me angry.
I'm so angry at my life.
How could this happen?
How could this be?
I'm scared too.
I'm scared and exhausted too.
(Hyundae Snack Bar, Recreational Boats)
(Police)
- I'm going in. - Kang Ja!
Detective Do.
Have you found anything?
Everything is scorched. We'll keep investigating.
(Butane)
I don't want you to be part of this.
Why? I guess someone I know is on your list of suspects?
He's working for TK Law Firm, not Hansu.
Choi Ju Wan, TK's managing partner.
For example, the VVIPs at the hostess bar.
The chairman of TK Law Firm.
Choi Tae Guk.
Eat and sleep well.
And don't get hurt no matter what happens.
Both physically and emotionally.
Don't get hurt.
Whatever happens, you have me by your side.
Next news.
Hong, known as the king of hostess bars in Gangnam,
died in a car explosion at an abandoned fishing spot.
Hong operated...
several hostess bars all over Gangnam.
What was Soo Jae doing there?
Ms. Oh's vehicle heading to the fishing spot...
was caught on a security camera nearby.
And after the explosion, her vehicle was spotted leaving too.
Maybe, she took the same road. It could be a coincidence.
Right.
I found it odd that Ms. Oh was there when he committed suicide,
so I looked into this.
And the last person Hong Seok Pal talked on the phone with was Ms. Oh.
Who called whom?
Did you check that?
It was Hong Seok Pal.
They could have arranged a meeting at the fishing spot.
I believe Ms. Oh knew something when she headed there.
Anyway, Hong Seok Pal is dead.
And we will have to...
interview Ms. Oh for a statement.
You should if you need to.
- By the way, Chief Kang, - Yes?
Try not to look too happy.
Hong Seok Pal took great care of you.
Everyone in your industry knows that.
And I can tell you're happy that it will never come out.
Gosh, no. That's not true.
He never did no such thing for me.
I just thought that Ms. Oh might be questioned by the police.
So I wanted to give you a heads-up.
Okay. Let's stop here today. I have a meeting.
I see. Yes, sir.
How come you didn't answer my calls?
(Gong Chan)
Were you with Soo Jae all night?
I checked the group chatroom. They all went to the fishing spot.
You were quiet, and I couldn't reach her either.
Were you with her?
Yes.
How is she?
She's not okay.
How could she be?
I'm the one who should be angry. Why do you sound mad?
- Why should you be angry? - Do you have to ask?
Do you think you're the only one who's worried about her?
You know,
it infuriates me that she was all alone during the explosion.
You must know since you heard the recording.
So it makes me so angry that she was all alone there.
Then why are you so angry?
Don't tell me...
you're angry because she was with me the whole night.
Is that why you're angry?
Yes.
It infuriates me that...
she called you instead of me when she was in danger.
And I told her not to do that, but she still...
called you again.
It's driving me mad.
And let me make this very clear.
You'd better not suspect my father...
and my brother without proof.
I might hate them,
but I won't let you accuse them falsely.
You're suspecting them too. Aren't you?
You're trying your best to prove that they are innocent, right?
I never suspected them.
I'm not trying to prove their innocence.
That sad suspect list.
You should drop it before you get humiliated.
There's nothing you can do now.
Hong Seok Pal said he killed Park So Young.
I'll look into it.
Hong Seok Pal said he pushed Park So Young,
but I must check if that was true.
Then I'll check if it was his decision...
or if someone ordered him to do so.
I'll find out if Hong Seok Pal really killed himself.
I'll check if Park So Young's killer murdered him too.
I'll check if those people on my sad suspect list...
are relevant to this case.
I told you to stop!
Fine. Suit yourself.
Suspect my father...
and my brother without any proof.
Do it all the way.
I plan on it.
When I take it all the way,
I will cross paths with you at one point.
It's obvious that you're worried about this.
"Don't suspect my father and my brother without proof"?
Who are his father and brother?
Do we know them? Who are they?
Oh, my gosh.
Choi Yoon Sang.
Choi Ju Wan. Choi Tae Guk.
Is he Choi Tae Guk's son?
- No way. - No wonder!
When we were talking the other day, he was a bit off.
Right.
That explains it. Gosh.
How am I going to face him now?
Nothing's going to change. We'll treat him the same.
But where were you last night? You didn't even answer your phone.
I was on the phone with Professor Oh right after the explosion.
So I went to the fishing spot.
We met around the fishing spot, and I drove her home.
What did she say? Why did Hong Seok Pal want to meet?
She doesn't know that either.
He called Professor Oh out of the blue.
And he confessed that he killed Park So Young.
After setting up a meeting with her,
he died in the car explosion.
Something doesn't add up.
Something's off.
He might not have committed suicide.
Sir, the lawyer you talked about is here.
And she looks really scary.
Let's have some tea.
So based on what you told us,
Hong Seok Pal must have lied on the phone.
Why would he do that?
We should find out...
if he was telling the truth or not.
And if Hong Seok Pal is indeed Park So Young's killer.
And if Professor Oh is responsible for her death.
She must have a dashcam in her car. Right?
This is the memory card for my dashcam.
It has the sudden explosion and fire after my arrival.
Someone could have installed a bomb.
A bomb?
You might be able to find out if you tap into your network.
Did someone install it to kill Hong Seok Pal?
Or did Hong Seok Pal install it on his own to kill himself?
Gosh. But how did you find me here?
I went off the grid, so no one could find me here.
You talked about this place once.
You said this was your hometown for your soul.
Gosh. I should blame my big mouth.
I should have called you.
But after Mr. Ha came by, I had a lot on my mind.
Ms. Oh, now that I'm getting older,
I easily get scared and have become a coward.
I'm sorry.
Are you really sorry?
What? Yes. I'm really sorry.
I'm very sorry.
Then use that feeling to do a thorough job.
Okay. I will.
I think something bad is going to happen to me soon.
How much progress did the police make?
They raided Hong Seok Pal's bar and his house.
It looks like they're considering it to be a suicide case.
Did you hear if they found anything during the search?
I asked a reporter. And the police put an embargo on it.
I do think there's something.
Okay.
There can't be anything.
Spare me two minutes.
I'm sorry, sir.
It's fine. Let's continue this later.
What's this about?
(Hong Seok Pal died last night. Oh Soo Jae was at the scene.)
That's why I'm here.
Something bad is going to happen to me soon.
(Smile Art Supplies)
Eun Seo.
I'm here.
Yoon Se Pil.
Aren't you cold?
Let me wrap this around you.
What's wrong?
No, Eun Seo. It's okay.
Anybody around? We need some help over here. Help!
- Eun Seo, it's okay. - Are you all right, Eun Seo?
We'll take you inside.
It's okay. Take a deep breath.
I forgot for a moment.
I guess Eun Seo still needs more time.
Let's just be thankful that she's alive.
And she started painting again.
The high-impact car accident...
caused severe bleeding in the cerebrum.
We've drained the haemorrhage,
but she could experience neurological problems.
Also, we suspect that she was * assaulted as well.
I must make them pay.
For everything they did, but one thing at a time.
They'll get it all back.
(Barbershop)
I have something important today.
I'll take great care of you, sir.
You see, there are fools who think that they own what I gave them.
They don't know that it'll all be gone the moment they lose me.
Those morons.
They think they're important now.
I know. This world is filled with such fools.
(Oh Soo Jae)
Hey, take a seat.
It's very fresh today. Try it.
It's even fresher than the last time.
Thank you, sir.
Shall I put on some music, sir?
No need. Today is such a happy day, even without music.
It's a happy day for you.
That nuisance, Hong Seok Pal, is now dead.
I bet you're especially happy about that.
What was the thing I had last time?
Right. Grilled snapper head. It was really good.
I'll prepare it for you, sir.
He died because of you.
Because you've been running around cleaning up the mess.
You know that he died because of you.
Soo Jae.
How much do you think you can protect yourself?
He is using Hong Seok Pal as bait...
I am the one protecting you.
I saved you.
Because he wants to hurt me.
Hong Seok Pal died because of you,
and you ordered him to kill Park So Young.
Chief Kang said the police would have to investigate you.
We're celebrating For Our Future Forum's anniversary tomorrow.
I'll arrange everything for you, so attend the event tomorrow.
It was created to help Assemblyman Lee get elected as President.
But technically, I was the one who founded the forum.
It was founded two years ago. You suddenly want me to join?
Is this what I get for demanding 70 million dollars?
Don't you know what kind of people are attending the forum?
I'm giving you a chance...
to join the most powerful bunch in my inner circle.
Once you join them, no one can mess with you.
That includes Chief Kang, of course.
I'm suggesting this for your own sake.
What is the funnest ocean fish to catch? Do you know?
When I was little, I went fishing with my dad often.
In my experience, the black porgy was the best one.
The moment you feel the bite,
it starts pulling, and it's incredibly strong.
It's so strong that even your fishing rod gets dragged away.
I lost my fishing rod in a flash, so I was upset about it.
But that moment, the boat captain said this.
"The one who throws bait..."
"doesn't necessarily have the upper hand."
"It even took your fishing rod away from you,"
"so it beat you."
The fish beat you because it took the bait and the fishing rod too?
That is not true, Soo Jae. How long do you think the fish held out?
A day at the most.
When you think you've bitten the bait,
you should let the fisherman reel you in, so you won't be hurt.
If you try to wriggle your way out,
the hook will rip your mouth, and you'll be hurt.
Make sure you attend the event.
It'll lead you to better things.
I politely decline.
You see, that bait...
I won't bite it.
(Gong Chan)
Hey.
Check out the waxing gibbous moon.
What?
And next to it, I see Jupiter too.
Jupiter?
Where is Jupiter?
The small sparkling star next to the moon.
That's Jupiter. You didn't know?
How ignorant.
I've never been called ignorant before.
Anyway, where are you now?
I'm delivering something while admiring Jupiter.
Delivering what?
A healthy dinner.
I left it in front of your door.
You're here now? Are you in the lobby?
I wanted to see you and give it to you in person,
but you should go to bed, so I'm just leaving.
Bye.
(Gong Chan)
Make sure you eat all of it before you wash up.
Don't worry about anything. Just sleep well.
See you tomorrow at school, with smiles on our faces.
The detectives are here.
They came here because they couldn't reach you.
I get that you couldn't reach her, but you can't just barge in here.
You know that you're overreacting, right?
Gosh, seriously. It's not like I wanted to come here.
Are you here to see me?
Detective Do Jin Myung, Jungang Police Station.
Why didn't you answer your phone?
We came all the way here because you didn't pick up.
You'll have to come with us for a witness interview.
You're probably here because of Hong Seok Pal's death.
If you're suspecting me because I was at the scene, I can explain it.
He wanted to meet, so I went there. But his car suddenly exploded,
so I called 911 and left.
I'm sure you already checked his call log...
as well as the recording of the call between me and 911.
Yet you came here in such a rush just to interview a witness?
It's a little over the top, don't you think?
Like you said, you spoke with him just before he died.
You were at the scene, and you called 911.
We found Hong Seok Pal's phone in his office.
We found a recording of the last phone call he made.
Park So Young. What if I killed her?
- What? - Why? Did what I just said...
get your attention now?
I get it. You're partially responsible...
for the way she died.
You clearly had something to do with Hong Seok Pal's death...
and Park So Young's death too. We have many questions for you,
so you'll have to come with us.
You're asking her to go to the station with you?
You don't have an arrest warrant. She's a witness, not a suspect.
You can't take her to the station without her permission.
Kid.
We'll decide if she's a witness or a suspect.
Hold on. A suspect?
Did you just call our professor a suspect?
Will you take responsibility for what you just said?
I'm going to start recording now. Okay?
Right. We're going to film you now.
You'd better take responsibility for this later.
Calm down.
Hong Seok Pal died because of you.
Chief Kang said the police would have to investigate you.
So...
did your chief order you to bring me in?
Yes, chief.
Yes. Okay.
Ms. Oh, you're under arrest.
What? You have no grounds to arrest her.
She's a law professor. Why are you arresting her?
This is an abuse of authority.
Article 213 of the Criminal Code.
Abuse of authority and hindrance to the exercise of rights.
Article 214. Abuse of authority and unlawful arrest!
Ms. Oh, you're under arrest...
for instigating to murder Park So Young...
and aiding and abetting Hong Seok Pal's suicide. Understood?
What nonsense is that?
Detective Do, what is this?
You have the right to an attorney. You have the right to remain silent.
Anything you say can be used against you in court.
I'm sure you all know that.
Professor Oh.
When you think you've bitten the bait,
you should let the fisherman reel you in, so you won't be hurt.
If you try to wriggle your way out,
the hook will rip your mouth, and you'll be hurt.
He was more impatient than I thought.
Right?
So you're arresting me without a warrant.
You're sure you'll meet the conditions...
to grant you a lawful arrest?
You must think that we don't follow any protocol.
We have probable cause...
A warrantless arrest.
There's a risk of getting evaluated...
if your arrest was lawful or not afterwards.
So you will face the consequences, right?
With your job on the line.
My gosh. Arresting a lawyer is such a hassle.
Why don't we go quietly?
- Detective Shin. Detective Do! - You can't... Professor Oh!
- Hold on. - Song Mi Rim.
I want you to represent me.
Yes. I'll do it. I'll be your lawyer.
I don't want...
any of you to leave school.
At least remove the handcuffs.
It's not like she's going to flee. And this is our school.
At least show her some respect.
Let's go.
Wait.
Do you have a warrant?
Are you sure it meets the conditions for a warrantless arrest?
How could you put handcuffs on her at school?
- Have you lost your mind? - Let's go.
Wait.
Water my plant.
Move out of the way. Let's go.
(Jungang Police Station)
- Do you admit instigating murder? - Do you admit...
aiding and abetting Hong Seok Pal's suicide?
Why did you have her killed?
Is it true you told Hong Seok Pal to kill Park So Young?
You showed no sense of remorse when Park So Young died.
How do you feel now?
You still feel no remorse?
Not at all.
- What? - Step out of the way.
Next news.
Lawyer Oh Soo Jae of TK Law Firm...
was in the limelight when Park So Young died.
And she was arrested for instigating to murder Park So Young...
and aiding and abetting Hong Seok Pal's suicide...
without a warrant.
- What? What nonsense is that? - Lawyer Oh Soo Jae...
was considered to be a managing partner at TK Law Firm.
She was a star lawyer at TK Law Firm.
- What is this? - It's been disclosed that...
she had instigated Hong Seok Pal to murder Park So Young...
by pushing her off the TK building.
And this discovery sent shock waves to the public.
Father.
You knew about this, right?
You knew about Soo Jae's arrest, right?
Get her out right now.
Tell them to release her now!
Why did you do it?
- I was bored. - What did she tell you to find?
You must have hidden something there.
Behind that weird button.
Nice. Getting paper-slapped made me come to my senses.
Stop beating people up.
What if you end up killing them?
You're lucky that you're my son.
If you weren't,
you wouldn't be standing here.
Father. There had never been a moment...
I felt lucky that you were my father in my entire life!
Father, why is Soo Jae...
But there must have been a moment...
when you felt lucky to be his son.
When I was a high school senior,
Mom collapsed because of that big mess you made!
I remember how Father cleaned up all that mess for you.
What are you talking about?
Mom passed away five days after her collapse.
So I wasn't even interested in the mess you created.
Did you feel lucky to be his son?
- You jerk. - Choi Yoon Sang!
Yes! I'm leaving.
I'll go and get her out no matter what.
You're only allowed to do two things when you leave this office.
Stay out of Soo Jae's case completely.
And come back home.
They are worried that...
the sell-off might not go through because of Soo Jae.
Chief Legal Officer Han has been calling me too.
You.
Don't miss this chance in her absence.
Take back what's ours.
Father, is that why...
Is that why you didn't stop them from arresting Soo Jae?
You're not going to question her?
The chief wanted to question her, so he told us to wait.
Is she that important? Even the chief is coming down?
Gosh. Did she hear us or what? Why is she smiling at us?
Seriously. Is she really crazy or something?
Gosh. The passcode. I should have asked her that.
- What do we do? - Should we ask her friend?
- Dr. Chae Jun Hee. - Right.
Ms. Song, I wanted to call you. Soo Jae is not answering her phone.
Jun Hee, I'm in a hurry.
Do you know Ms. Oh's passcode to her house?
I see.
Why would she pick such an easy passcode?
Chan.
My housekeeper put it there,
but I don't have a green thumb.
The house is under the company's name.
And I'm the one who gave her the keys.
Ms. Song. Where are you?
Jun Hee, I'm right here.
- Is she okay? - Yes, she's okay.
My goodness.
Mr. Choi?
People said TK Law Firm was an incredible law firm...
where everyone dreamed of working.
So I had high hopes.
And it makes me concerned...
about my professor's mental well-being...
for having to put up with a jerk like you.
A jerk like me?
Yes. You heard me.
Come to think of it, this doesn't make sense.
You could have gotten Ms. Song to do it. But you came here...
with a locksmith.
- Really? - Yes.
People might think that you're here to steal things.
Do I need to explain my actions to you?
And didn't you know...
that the company provided housing for her?
Does it mean you can just pick the lock and barge in here?
I guess that's normal for TK Law Firm.
Since you're providing housing for her,
you can come in here whenever you want? Is that it?
Where is her room?
Can you go and watch him?
- Okay. - Okay.
Did you find it? Are you leaving now?
Ms. Oh.
I refuse to answer any questions until my lawyer gets here.
When will your lawyer get here?
Sorry.
I had to water the plant.
Let's begin.
I...
killed Park So Young...
for Oh Soo Jae from TK Law Firm.
The person who pushed Park So Young...
off the rooftop of the TK building...
was me.
Hong Seok Pal.
Hey.
Who do you think you are? You think you can boss me around?
Park So Young won't get away with this.
Do you really want to end up in prison?
You have several hostess bars in Gangnam.
I can make sure all of them go under.
Do your kids know...
how their father is coming up with their tuition abroad?
Hey, you'd better leave my kids out of this.
If you get my kids involved in this,
I'm going to kill you! Got that?
So think carefully about...
how you're going to get rid of Park So Young.
Get rid of her?
Why would I do that?
Do what you guys are good at.
You can bury people without leaving a trace.
Oh Soo Jae blackmailed me...
because of Assemblyman An Kang Won.
She was seeing him.
But he was also involved with Park So Young.
And this scandal made Oh Soo Jae livid.
So she told me to kill Park So Young.
She said if I didn't kill her,
she would make sure all of my businesses go under,
and she would torture...
my kids.
Do you admit that you ordered Hong Seok Pal to kill Park So Young?
Ms. Oh.
Let's finish the video.
That's how Oh Soo Jae blackmailed me.
So I had no choice...
but to kill Park So Young.
(Detective Cho: I got Hong Seok Pal's confession video.)
I had nightmares every night.
And I felt so guilty that I couldn't go on with my life.
So Young. I'm really sorry.
And I would like to offer my sincere apology...
to the bereaved family.
I'm sorry.
I'm really sorry.
Darn it.
I will meet with Oh Soo Jae...
one last time.
And I will commit...
suicide...
in front of her.
We got it. It's over.
That lowlife, Hong Seok Pal, came here...
and talked about Park So Young?
Get him in here right now.
We have cleaners who take care of dirt bags like him.
Right. Oh Soo Jae can deal with him.
Tell her to crush him.
She will destroy him,
and we should get rid of the cleaner too.
Why? The sell-off hasn't been finalized yet.
Besides, she's nothing like that lowlife, Hong Seok Pal.
Whenever I stand here,
I always think...
Chairman Choi couldn't have picked a better seat.
But...
Oh Soo Jae has the files on the cruise.
So I don't know...
if we have a bright future ahead of us or a bleak one.
We must unite when there's work to get done.
That way, I can appoint you to be the Minister of Justice...
when my administration takes over.
Your desire to make me the President.
And your desire to be my stepping stone.
That hasn't changed, right?
Hold on.
Why is this talk getting so serious?
Of course, not.
You meant it when you said...
you would do anything...
to make me the President, right?
Of course. When have I not been honest with you?
Gosh. People might think...
you're professing love to each other.
Goodness.
This feels weird.
All this for a mere position?
That fool. He thinks I'm his stepping stone?
He doesn't even know what his role is.
(Autopsy Report, Hong Seok Pal)
(The deceased died in a car explosion.)
I don't see any signs of foul play.
I think he was addicted to drugs.
But it doesn't have a direct tie to his death.
The causes of death were asphyxiation from carbon monoxide...
and burning.
My opinion is that he committed suicide.
(Establish law and order)
(Corrections)
(Establish law and order)
(Live to repent)
(Why Her?)
- What a mess. - Those darn reporters.
This is just the beginning.
Harsher words will become the truth, and they'll think she's the culprit.
The police began searching Oh Soo Jae's office and house.
- It's gone. - Yes.
TK Law Firm has nothing to do with the case in question.
We must find evidence that Professor Oh is innocent.
You jerks!
Why are you doing this so fast?
You don't know if this is real or fake.
This could be real.
She wouldn't say stuff like that.
I'm sure she's a few moves ahead even in prison.
Someone who can bring in Hong Seok Pal to get me involved.
What would you do if you were in my shoes?
I would detain her.
