I'm sure you understand the situation.

If you stop now,
I'll forgive you for everything.

But if you choose to go against me,

I assure you that everything
you've accomplished

will go to complete ruin.

Kim Yi-seol did not commit suicide.
[KIM YI-SEOL'S DEATH WAS A MURDER]

The police have put the man
in the video under witness protection

and are investigating
the possibility of murder.

The prime suspect is known to be
a prosecutor currently in office.

And the police have already
identified his whereabouts.

Mr. Park Jeong-ho?

You are under arrest
for the murder of Kim Yi-seol.

The choice is yours. What will it be?

I'll expose everything.

What you did to Yi-seol

and what you did to me.

- I'll expose the truth.
- What truth?

The fact that you bought
a child from Yi-seol?

Sure. If you can reveal everything,

then you might as well go ahead.

Don't think you can
threaten me with that.

You don't want anyone to know

that Hyeon-wu was adopted, either.

You wouldn't do anything
to blemish the family's reputation.

That is my concern.

You should be concerned about yourself.

A prosecutor sold a child
to help his lover.

And in order to keep that a secret,

he killed Kim Yi-seol,
the birthmother.

And he has refused to name his lover,

who is a possible accomplice.

Do you like that story?

You're right. Just like you said,

I would never risk letting anyone
know our family secrets.

And I still see you
as part of this family.

But be prompt with your decision.

[ARTIFICIAL CITY]

I'll come back in 30 minutes.

She's visiting Park Jeong-ho
with Cho Gang-hyeon's help.

I'm sure she feels she owes him
an explanation for what happened.

[EPISODE 18]

I can't reach Park Yong-seob.

He must have run away,
thinking something had gone wrong.

But don't worry.

Even if I can't prove my innocence
during the investigation,

I'll still have a trial,
and everything will be okay.

No.

That's not how it's going to play out.

No matter what you do,
you'll be tried for murdering Yi-seol

and found guilty in the end.

That's Seo Han-suk's plan.

But there is still a way out of this.

I'll just have to continue
serving the family,

struggling for their mercy and acceptance

like I always have.

If I give her that promise,

you'll be released right away.

You don't have to, Jae-hui.

You shouldn't.

I wouldn't stoop like that
if it were just your neck on the line.

If it were, I would ask you
to just hold on until I find a way.

But your family…

I can't make them suffer, too,
because of this.

You don't have to worry about my family.

They're my problem.
I'll handle it myself.

So, you don't have to hesitate
because of me.

You have to find
who murdered Kim Yi-seol.

And that should be your first priority.

Yi-seol…

wasn't murdered by Jun-hyeok.

It was Seo Han-suk.

I'm scared, Jeong-ho.

So, I want you

and your family to be
an excuse for me to give up.

There is absolutely nothing I can do

except doing whatever she wants me to
like I always have.

[KIM YI-SEOL]

Let us pray together.

Almighty and ever-present Father,

You gave us life, at whose end
we return to your arms.

For those who have sinned may not
stand by your side in heaven,

and for our bodies are but mortal
without the life you gave us,

we are indeed grateful for guiding us
and with the sacrifice of your own son

showing us the way
to eternity and resurrection.

May the sounds of the trumpet and
the voice of the archangel greet her soul

as she enters heaven
to forever live in your glory.

So we pray in the name of Jesus Christ.
Amen.

So, have you made your decision?

I've decided not to go against you.

Smart decision.

When will Jeong-ho be released?

Well,

that depends on how you behave.

You're not the only one in pain.

Think about how Jun-hyeok would feel.

You've been his wife for 10 years,

and he was already shocked to find out
that Hyeon-wu was adopted.

Then you suspected him for murder.

First, you'll have to make up with him.

And make sure there are
no more conflicts in your family.

Where's Hyeon-wu?

He just went to bed.

Why did he do it?

I heard you visited Jeong-ho.

It's fortunate that we have
the suspect under arrest. Isn't it?

What?

So, you can't believe that he did it?

Everyone makes mistakes, you know.

But remember this,

when it's repeated,
it's no longer a mistake. Get it?

Hey. I'm about to head out. Okay.

[MEMORIAL GATE]

[TO DRIVE OUT CORRUPTION
AND TO BRING EQUITY TO KOREA.]

[TO DRIVE OUT CORRUPTION AND TO BRING EQUITY TO KOREA.
- JUNG JUN-HYEOK]

And bow.

His campaign began
with a visit to the National Cemetery.

How are things going

with Yu Jin-seok's
new emergency committee?

After Minister Park
was removed from office,

Cho Gang-hyeon has been under
heavy criticism for political bias

and is refusing to press charges
against Min's supporters.

Tell Yu Jin-seok to talk to him.

We need this taken care of
before the primaries.

Yes. I'll handle it.

How are things
between Jun-hyeok and Jae-hui?

Is something up?

He recently started

seeing Kim Ji-su,
Hyeon-wu's former violin teacher.

And Jae-hui?

It seems she already knows.

That's not enough.
She has to do something.

[KIM JI-SU /
I LIKED THAT WINE PLACE FROM BEFORE.]

Mother will worry about this.

Pretend you didn't see this.

That'll be easier for you.

It seems like
you have the public's favor.

They're just excited
to see a new face in politics.

What's next on our schedule?

Attending an exhibit with Chairman Jung
and his wife, and then dinner together.

Make sure to discuss youth employment.

You have to show them that you care.

I'm almost there.

I thought you hated
these kinds of events.

You seem to have
a real fondness for Jun-hyeok.

I'm just doing what I have to.

Who's the one making that decision?
You or Mother?

You're too old to let others
make decisions for you.

But of course, no one would dare
go against her will in this family.

Look how badly Jae-hui failed.

It's a pleasure to see you guys.

I'll never get used to
that pretense of his.

[ART CONCERT WITH KIM YI-SEOL]

I heard that's staying
until Jun-hyeok announces candidacy.

By the way, what's the deal with
a murder suspect being arrested?

I thought it was a suicide.

That prosecutor they arrested,
isn't that Jeong-ho?

The man that was with you in the picture.

Did Jun-hyeok do it?

- And they're pinning it on…
- No.

It wasn't Jun-hyeok.

He may not be the best husband.

But he's no murderer.

Why don't you get a divorce?

Why don't you?

I'm not in the same position as you.

Jun-il told me the other day.

If it's what everyone believes,
that's all we need to know.

Just let me know
if you can't stand it anymore.

I'll gladly kick you out.

I think that'll be enough.
Let's go eat.

I'll see you later.

I have some things to discuss
with Professor Yu.

Thank you for today.

Take care, Madam.

It's just a gesture to highlight
your wifehood to the new candidate.

It'll help bring the focus to him.

I apologize if I made you uncomfortable.

As long as it's for the best, I'm fine.

Thank you for understanding.

The image of a good, loyal wife
will make the perfect picture.

I'll see you, then.

- Let's go.
- Let's.

How have you been, Mrs. Yun?

Did I keep you waiting?

Let's go.

See you around, Mrs. Yun.

You don't have to worry about this.

I'll make sure
there are no problems.

[GO SEON-MI]
A meeting with Madam Seo at 10 AM.

Don't be late.

He'll be announcing his candidacy soon.
Aren't you going to do something?

You can't just sit on your hands.

I'm not sure what to do.

I still haven't made up
with Jun-hyeok for what happened.

After what I've done to him,
I'm in no position to make any demands.

Also,

his cheating on me is nothing new.

It's always been that way.

And it always will.

Right. You have no right
to make any demands to him.

Still, you also have to resolve
conflicts in your family.

And although in name only, you're still
his wife and the mother of his child.

So, I expect you to do your best
to protect your family.

So, in order to prove
that I'm the birthmother,

I'd first have to file a suit.

And when that's done, I'd have to
re-register Gyu-seong as a child

born out of wedlock.

That is correct.

That will take ages.

And, would this have any effect
on my son's inheritance rights?

Not at all. By law, a child born out of
wedlock holds the same inheritance rights.

Okay. Let me take some time to think
and call you back later.

Sure. Take your time.

And this is just between us, okay?

Of course.

I didn't think I'd see you so soon.

I didn't want to, either.

But I have to.

Just for your information,

he was the one that
reached out to me first.

He seemed to be under
a lot of stress because of you.

You'll have to stop seeing him soon.

He's running for president.

Why don't you get a divorce?

You could divorce him, couldn't you?

You're a good person.

You're not Hyeon-wu's real mother.

And it's not like
you still have any love left for him.

Why continue a marriage
that's only in name?

It's unfair for Jun-hyeok to have to

put up with you
just because you're raising Hyeon-wu.

Is that what he said?

That it's unfair?

That's just what I think.

He cried the other day,
saying Hyeon-wu's mother died.

I've always wondered how someone like you
even managed to land him.

Did you perhaps use
Hyeon-wu as an excuse?

How shameless.

I think a divorce
would be your best option.

I want you out of the picture
before Jun-hyeok starts his campaign.

You crazy bitch!

- Look at this…
- Hey! Are you crazy?

I am crazy, you bitch!

I haven't seen a real bitch like you
in a long time.

You'd better watch your tone!

You were always so snobbish.
But look at you now.

I heard Gang-hyeon talking
on the phone and figured it out.

That Jun-hyeok raped
that girl who died.

And that he killed her because
she threatened him with that.

The people around you

keep the most terrible secrets
among themselves

while acting like
they're the noblest of people.

It's disgusting, and I'm sick of that.

You're no different.

You knew that the girl in the video
was No Yeong-ju and turned a blind eye.

For your own sake, you pretended
not to know that dirty secret.

I did. You're right. I'm no different.

But look.

I'm a shameless bar girl that
classy women like you look down on.

But look at you.

I would have expected better
from someone so high and mighty.

I used to be so jealous of you.

But it turns out,
you're not worthy of that at all.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

My name is Han Dong-min, and it's
an honor to join the JBC Morning News.

Here's the first news of the day.

[REHABILITATION AS A WAY TO
ORDER AND HUMAN RIGHTS]

Hey! Hop in!

You'll have to keep quiet for a while.

Go to your parents' or something.

Jae-hui went through a lot
to get you out.

You were released for lack of evidence,

but we'll have to be careful
until the case is closed.

I'm looking for that son of a bitch
Park Yong-seob, so...

- He was fooled by Han Dong-min.
- What?

I filmed that video testimony.

And Han Dong-min edited it.

What is it then?

Was it really Jung Jun-hyeok
that killed Kim Yi-seol?

And Seo Han-suk is
trying to cover that up?

Have you heard?

Jeong-ho's being released today.

I can't come with you today.

I have a lot of work at the gallery.

Did you make a deal with Mother?

That's the only way for him
to be released so soon.

He was arrested,
and the bench warrant was out, too.

In cases like that, it's unusual
for anyone to be released.

But I'll just say, good for you.
In any case, you must be happy.

You must have been worried.

Why even bother to ask?

I'm sure you already
heard about it from Mother.

No.

I haven't heard anything from her.

Do you have anything else to ask me?

No, nothing more.

By the way,

it doesn't seem like you want to find
Kim Yi-seol's murderer.

I think you're just pretending
to be devastated by her death.

You just want this
to pass by without incident.

Why would you think that?

I think it'll make you feel less guilty
for what you did to her

to know that the one that killed her
is still out there, unpunished.

That way,

you can focus on your ambitions
without your conscience hindering you.

Why did Madam Seo
have Jeong-ho released?

I don't know what you're talking about.

Don't play dumb with me.

The truth of the matter is,

Kim Yi-seol gave birth to
Jun-hyeok's child,

approached Jae-hui to get to him,
and threatened him.

Madam Seo must have
done something about it.

Are you suggesting

it was Madam Seo that had her killed?

Be careful what you say.

Why?

One of my own men was framed and arrested

in my own front yard,
and I'm the Prosecutor General.

And the same thing
could happen to me, too.

I'm sure you know
whose turn it is after Jeong-ho.

Does she have anyone in mind?

If that girl was
indeed murdered like you suggest,

it'll be interesting to see
who ends up behind bars.

Everyone will fear that

it might be them.

Pity for all who have
history with Madam Seo.

Instead of sitting worried,

I think you should get busy
taking care of what she ordered.

What?

The investigation on Min's supporters?

[KIM YI-SEOL]

Did you just say I raped you?

You drank all the drinks I offered,
with a smile on, too.

Even when you were drunk,
you were still so eager to talk to me.

I thought you also wanted to have fun.
You call that a rape?

I had to make a good impression.

I was about to get evicted
from my apartment.

And I needed help
from someone with power.

But I nevergave you permission
to do anything like that.

[RAPE]

[TO FEAR]

[TO BE AFRAID]

[UNFAIR]

[TO DIE]

[SUICIDE]

[I can endure this.]

Hello, Congressman Min.

You haven't been answering my calls.

So, I didn't have a way to tell you.

Have you heard about
the impeachment?

- Impeachment?
- You know, the five men at your loyal service.

[IMPEACHMENT, ACCUSER: HWANG TAE-GYUN,
ACCUSED: MYEONG DU-HUN]

We'll use Yu Jin-seok's connections
in the leading party

to file for impeachment
of Min Seong-sik's supporters.

That'll give Cho Gang-hyeon
a reason to start the investigation.

I have something to tell you, Mother.

Come back later.

Let's do it now.

It won't take long.

- Madam Yun…
- Don't get in the way.

Won't it?

Then let me hear it.

Stop treating me with contempt.

You have no right to do that.

You had Yi-seol killed
and threatened me.

I'll never be able to
stand up against you again.

Because I'm scared.

I do want justice for Yi-seol,

but I care more about my own safety.

Then how can you be
so daring and confident?

It's all thanks to you.

You're less than human.

That's what I'm going to tell myself.

And although I'm scared of you,
in a way I'll feel superior to you.

My contempt for you and my grudge

will keep me going.

This way.

How do you like it, Father?

You'll stay here from now on.
Do you like it?

Oh, of course.

Thank you for your kindness, sir.

Come on. Don't call me that.
Just call me Jun-hyeok.

Just like you used to
in the old days, remember?

He needs to earn the support of
senior citizens before joining the party.

I apologize for rushing this
without giving you proper notice.

It's fine.

No need to pretend like
you care about me at all.

Leave it there. I'll take care of it.

You're good at drawing, too, Father.

But shouldn't that apple be red?

Just a moment, Father.

I didn't expect to see you here.

Oh, and about Judge Kwon…

Where's your wife?

I think she went to the market
with our daughter.

They'll be back soon.

Perhaps I should bring out some tea…

- I have to get going.
- Wait…

Could you…

Will you…

Will you give these to Hee-ja, my wife?

I've had it for a while.
But I couldn't give it to her.

I put her through a lot of trouble.

And this is a token of apology.

They'll be so pretty on her.

Why now…

I thought you hated Mother.

I thought you hated her
for her humble backgrounds.

That's why…

I tried so hard
not to end up like her.

I'm sorry.

No, it's fine.

That doesn't matter.

It's too late, anyway.

Slowly, slowly.

Careful.

Careful, just a little more.

Ta-da!

[BALLOT FOR PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION,
CANDIDATE JUNG JUN-HYEOK]

Can I blow this out?

Yeah.

[UNFAIR]

[TO DIE]

[KIM YI-SEOL]

[SUICIDE]

♫ Like an echo in silent despair ♫

♫ Disappear in vain ♫

♫ I used to believe
I could have it all ♫

♫ The traces I left
as I fought my way ♫

♫ God help me to see all the things ♫

♫ I have done that I didn't deserve ♫

♫ in the past ♫

♫ Let me be there ♫

♫ So that I can find myself ♫

♫ To find myself someday ♫

We need to discuss
the details of the upcoming interview.

Master Jun-hyeok was ranked first
in the most recent poll.

His ratings saw a dramatic increase

after his visit to Judge Yun
at the nursing home.

Mother must be glad.

So, where is the interview going to be?

It'll be held
at the exhibition hall of the gallery.

How many people have you
killed at Mother's service?

I'm sure you were just following orders.

I wonder how that would feel, though.

I don't think you'd believe this,

but I know someday I'll have to
pay for everything I've done.

You do all the dirty deeds for her.

You have no right to say that.

I know that people fear me
because I work for her.

But I've never used that for my own gain.

This is the letter
Kim Yi-seol left for you.

Why are you giving this to me now?

You can judge that yourself.

[TO MRS. YUN]

[ART CONCERT WITH KIM YI-SEOL]

To Mrs. Yun,

I'm sorry to go without a proper goodbye.

I hated you
and held a grudge against you.

I felt it was unfair.

And I couldn't bear the fact
that I was the reason for your suffering.

I wonder where it all began.

[HYEONGSAN AREA 4,
REDEVELOPMENT ASSOCIATION]

I went to ask the redevelopment
association to postpone the demolition.

That's when I first met Yeong-ju.

And she told me that she knew a place
where a lot of powerful people came.

You can wait in the car.
It won't take long.

She took me there, and that's
where I met Jung Jun-hyeok.

I'm getting a checkup today.

I don't think I can go. Everyone's
on standby because of the protest.

Just focus on your work.
I'll take care of everything.

But it's our wedding anniversary.

I'll take you somewhere nice for dinner.

- I'll make a reservation.
- Okay.

This is my gift for our anniversary.

We never even
belonged in the same world.

How did it even come to this?

[FATHER]

Hey. That's what you're going to wear?

Put this on, instead.

Let's have some fun!

Are you all having a good time?

This is a special group
I've prepared just for you.

They're all nice and pretty.

- Just look at them!
- Look up and give them a smile.

Let's do this!

Hey, you!

Come over here!

Hey, who said you could pick first?

Well then, I'm getting two.
You in the red dress.

If I hadn't gone to that place,

if I hadn't been born so poor,

or if I hadn't been born at all…

I blamed myself for everything.

The police decided
to suppress the protestors by force

and began action in
Hyeongsan-dong redevelopment area 4.

During the operation,
a fire suddenly broke out…

That night when my grandmother died,

our fate was decided,
without us knowing.

[HEALTH TEST RESULTS]

[FERTILITY TEST RESULT]

My pain became your hope.

11:26 AM, March 14th. Weight, 3.2 kg.
It's a boy.

Would you like to see the baby?

And my loss and despair

became your happiness.

That's why I couldn't even say sorry.

I couldn't offer you comfort
when you were suffering.

But I sincerely hope
to meet you again someday.

Until then, take good care of Hyeon-wu.

Thank you for everything.

Let's prepare for the interview.

[TO MRS. YUN]

I'll give the earrings to Hee-ja.

[ART CONCERT WITH KIM YI-SEOL]

[Q. WHAT DO YOU THINK IS
THE DUTY OF A FIRST LADY?]

Duty of a First Lady…

I'd have to suppose
that my husband is elected president

to answer that question.

To help the President
stick to his principles.

I believe that's
the duty of the First Lady.

I've always had much sympathy
for people who face discrimination.

Lots of people are discriminated against
for various reasons.

I've also noticed

that even when thousands still suffer,

the world doesn't seem to care at all.

Isn't that just ridiculous?

That is indeed ridiculous.

Those with power enjoy life, untouched,
and even get away with murder.

Didn't you know?

I killed Kim Yi-seol.

[ARTIFICIAL CITY]

Timing and subtitles by the
Ambitious Peacocks Team @Viki.com

As you know, I'm the kind of person that
just can't stand this kind of ridicule.

I have no idea.

You always live the way you want.

And I never do anything I want.

I don't know
what choices we'll end up making.

You won't speak of
such things on broadcast. Never again.

We'd better take care of it ourselves.

She won't do that again.
She'll come back to her senses.

Jung Jun-hyeok and Seo Han-suk.

They committed crimes,
and I turned a blind eye.

Yun Jae-hui, the director of the Sungjin
Gallery turned herself in…

We can still make this right again.
I can change it all.

- Don't you think it's too late?
- That's why I'll right my wrongs now.

I can't do that.

I'm going to find the story
that Yi-seol wanted to tell.

I realized it was not the fault
of just a single person.
