Buried Hearts

CHARACTERS, PLACES, ORGANIZATIONS, AND EVENTS IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTITIOUS

CHILD ACTORS AND ANIMALS FILMED IN SAFE ENVIRONMENT

[Jangseon] You thief.

My two trillion won is in that head of yours!

[♪ tense music playing]

[Guho groans]

What money?

You…

You took the money I was going to use

for my love of this country.

[♪ music intensifies]

-[Jangseon exhales] -[♪ music stops]

[exhales deeply]

[♪ dramatic music playing]

[Jangseon gasps]

Why are you so shocked?

Didn't you bring this to kill me?

Honestly, I'm tired of chasing my memories.

And I'm left alone in this world.

I'm done.

It's all so exhausting.

So…

I'll disappear with the two trillion

stuck in my head.

I was wrong!

You didn't steal my money.

It's a misunderstanding…

Are you sure?

Why would I lie with a gun in front of me?

Do you want me to kneel and beg?

Do you?

EPISODE 8

[♪ mysterious music playing]

[sighs in frustration]

[case slams shut]

Sir.

Sir.

You should head to the main house.

If you're sleeping here, I'll prepare your bedding.

[Jangseon] Guho.

Yes, sir.

We need to prepare some cinnamon.

[♪ ominous music playing]

[Jangseon] You mentioned Seo Dongju nearly died

from a cinnamon allergy back then, right?

[Guho] Yes, sir. Any later, and it would've been fatal.

Seo Dongju is getting too cocky. It's a real nuisance.

Prepare enough to send him off smoothly in one go.

Cinnamon.

CASSIA CINNAMON

Make sure

everything goes smoothly.

If you fail and Seo Dongju regains all his memories,

you'll be headed straight to prison for attempted murder.

Don't forget that, Ildo.

What if he realizes there's cinnamon in it

and doesn't eat it?

That's a great question.

If he's putting on an amnesia act,

you should get rid of him straightaway.

You already failed to kill him once.

It's only right that you finish the job, isn't it?

[scoffs]

If you need a gun, I can provide one again.

I'll make sure…

everything is wrapped up the right way.

[♪ suspenseful music playing]

Mmm…

It's good.

Tell Director Seo

to come down and join us for dinner.

We have such great food here.

[Jeongja] I will.

Dongju!

[Dongjun gasps]

[Taeyun] Dongju!

[Dongju gasping]

-Call an ambulance. -[Eunnam] Dongju!

Yes, Father.

[Eunnam] Dongju.

[Dongju wheezing]

We have a medical emergency at 19-1 Hannam-dong. Please come quickly.

-[Gangcheon] What's going on? -[Eunnam] Stay with me, Dongju!

What's going on?

-[Dongju wheezing] -[Eunnam] Dongju.

Dongju!

[Eunnam] Stay with me.

[sobbing] Dongju, stay with me!

[Gangcheon] Director Seo!

-[Eunnam] Dongju. -[Gangcheon] What's going on?

Director Seo!

-[Eunnam] Dongju, stay with me… -[Dongju wheezing]

[Eunnam sobbing] Dongju, stay with me!

-[Dongju wheezing] -[Eunnam] Dongju!

Dongju, stay with me!

Dongju!

Stay with me!

Dongju…

Dongju, stay with me…

Dongju!

[♪ music fades]

Director Seo!

Dongju!

-Dongju! -[Gangcheon] Director Seo!

[Taeyun's breath trembling]

[♪ melancholy song playing]

When is the ambulance getting here?

I'll go check.

Call and hurry them up.

Yes, Grandfather.

Is this emergency services?

I'll go.

[siren wailing]

Let's follow Director Seo. Get ready.

Yes, Grandfather.

Taeyun, I'll take him.

[phone vibrating]

Yes, Aunt.

Huicheol.

I called to check if your in-laws liked the food.

Whether they liked the food is the least of our worries.

The cookies caused some serious trouble.

[Boyeon] Honey!

After I spoke with Huicheol, I checked the kitchen right away.

It's definitely cassia cinnamon.

I've never brought Ceylon cinnamon into this house.

How on earth did this happen?

I'll vouch for your innocence.

I'll visit Director Seo

and encourage him to pull through on your behalf too.

Are you saying

that he might die?

[Boyeon gasps]

Oh, no.

Seo Dongju ate the cookies even after hearing they had cinnamon in them.

Guess the amnesia

isn't an act, right?

Yes, sir.

[phone vibrates]

[Ildo] It doesn't look like Director Seo will recover.

[cardiac monitor beeping]

[Ihyeon] Code Blue.

-Doctor, call a Code Blue. -[doctor] Yes, got it.

-[Ihyeon] Epinephrine! -[nurse] Yes!

[nurse over PA] Code Blue!

[Ihyeon] 150 joules.

[paddles charging]

[nurse] It's ready.

[Ihyeon] Shock!

[cardiac monitor flatlining]

-Charge 200 joules. -[nurse] Charge 200 joules.

It's ready.

Shock.

[Jangseon] Seo Dongju's real name

is Chu Seonghyeon.

Seonghyeon.

It's time for you to go.

Only if you die

will our tangled fate finally end here.

Welcome, Ildo!

[♪ solemn music playing]

What is this?

They're gifts from Chairman Cha, sir.

[sighs] Not that.

Why is a Daesan employee in my house?

[paper rips]

[scoffs]

[Gangcheon] I couldn't comply with your request to fire Seo Dongju,

so I'm sending small gifts along with this handwritten letter.

I hope you'll be understanding.

As for the slush fund my son-in-law siphoned off to win your favor,

let's consider it forgotten.

Guho, take in the gifts.

[Dongju] Thank you, Mr. Yeom.

Sir.

From now on, call me "sir."

Yes, sir.

[Jangseon] Come in, Ildo.

[door opens]

DAESAN HOSPITAL

Secretary Gong!

Tell Secretary Gong to bring some tea.

Father!

We're at the hospital.

[♪ somber music playing]

[Gangcheon sighs]

You should…

go home.

You'll collapse at this rate.

[Dosu sighs]

-Can you take him-- -Even if he goes back,

he won't rest easy worrying about Director Seo.

[Dosu] Is Director Seo more important than your health?

What's wrong with you guys?

Director Seo is important.

-[Gangcheon sighs] -[phone vibrates]

I need to go check on a patient.

You have to go back soon, okay?

I'm disappointed in you.

About his dementia.

Well…

He's just tired from what happened to Director Seo.

He's totally fine…

Did you catch on?

He was so adamant about keeping it secret.

I couldn't even tell my wife.

You did the right thing.

From now on,

you must discuss his condition with me.

It's for Daesan.

Obviously for you and Daesan Hospital too.

Okay.

[footsteps approaching]

Sir.

-Hi, Ildo. -Hello.

Why a hospital room and not the morgue?

[Ildo] Well…

It's a room for the chairman to rest.

Director Seo won't make it through the night.

[cardiac monitor flatlining]

[♪ somber music playing]

-[cardiac monitor beeping] -[Dongju gasping]

[nurse] Doctor, his rhythm is back!

-[Ihyeon panting] -[monitor beeping]

Father.

He has no family to handle it.

We should start preparing the funeral…

[Jangseon] Yes, I cared about that young man too.

I will gladly put my name on the funeral committee list, Chairman.

Why are you rushing ahead?

Director Seo isn't dead yet.

It'll be tough for him to recover.

[door slides open]

[♪ dramatic music playing]

Director Seo!

[Ihyeon] Everyone, please leave the room.

The patient needs complete rest, Chairman.

He's past the worst for now since he's breathing on his own.

It's thanks to Eunnam's proper first response with CPR.

[♪ music fades]

This happened after he ate the food sent from my family,

so I feel absolutely devastated.

Then this allergic reaction

won't threaten Director Seo's life anymore?

[Ihyeon] No. We still need to monitor him further, but for now,

he'll live.

It'll take some time for him to regain consciousness.

But his eyes were open.

[Ihyeon] Physiological functions are working.

But there's no response to cognitive stimuli, so…

we need to wait and see.

Then has he gotten worse than when he lost his memory?

[Jeonghui] Dongju!

Dongju!

I'm Seo Dongju's guardian.

The patient who just came in?

Director Seo's guardian is here now. Let's head down for now.

[♪ gloomy music playing]

[Jeonghui] Dongju can't have cinnamon.

[♪ music fades]

[Wonbae] I'll take it from here. Thank you so much.

Seong Hyeon.

You must get back up.

You can't give up right now.

[♪ somber music playing]

Are you Yeo Eunnam?

Hold on.

This is pretty much dead,

but I kept it because of the video inside.

It might not play anymore, though.

In any case, it was originally meant for you.

There were some circumstances.

Hear it from him when he wakes up.

Oh, right.

Have a look at this when you're alone.

Come on. Wake up. Eunnam is here too.

Gosh.

[♪ music ends]

[♪ mysterious music playing]

[Eunnam] Why are you trying to kill Dongju?

The day you told me

to arrange a meeting between Dongju and his sister,

she died.

Got something to say?

No.

[♪ music fades]

[♪ melancholy music playing]

[Dongju] I'll give it a go.

[violin screeches]

It's a mess from the start.

I'll start.

[violin playing over phone]

That's it.

I didn't practice the rest.

I wanted to master it

and play it for you whenever you wanted…

I'm hungry.

This is the chairman's recipe that's more precious than wild ginseng.

Soju with raw eggs.

Almost forgot.

Ta-da.

I got it fixed.

The shop said the gems were still intact.

[♪ sentimental song playing]

I need water.

Okay.

How about getting pretty tattoos on our wrists?

What?

I've been wanting to do it for a long time.

[exclaims in pain]

[Dongju chuckles awkwardly]

Looks like she's really scared.

Looks like a no.

Then I'll go first and see if it hurts or not.

If it's bad, don't do it.

Dongju, why would you? What's the point?

You won't know if it hurts until you try.

Wait outside.

I'll go first.

[♪ gentle song playing]

[Dongju] The sketch…

You're a scaredy-cat afraid of tattoo needles.

How did you hurt your wrist like that?

It was a mistake.

I was trying to mess with my stepdad and mom,

but I ended up screwing myself over.

Thanks, Dongju.

For putting an end to my embarrassment.

It really didn't hurt much.

Really?

It didn't hurt?

Did it hurt for you?

Yeah.

I'm never doing it again.

[Yeonju] I told Dongju

that I'd curse you out for him. But…

Pray for her in my stead.

Pray that she stays

healthy and happy.

PROSECUTION

[reporter 1] She's here!

-[reporter 2] She's coming! -[reporter 3] She's here!

[camera shutters clicking]

[♪ tense music playing]

[reporter 4] Do you admit

to lobbying bank executives to win the Yuseong Chemical M&A?

But I…

[reporters clamoring]

DAESAN CHEMICAL CEO CHA GUKHUI APPEARS BEFORE PROSECUTORS

[reporter 5] Why show up at the prosecutors' office now

after avoiding summons?

[reporter 4] Are you only here because of warrant threats?

[reporter 6] How do you feel right now?

[reporter 7] How do you feel right now?

[reporter 4] Please tell us. Is it yes or no?

[reporters clamoring]

[huffs angrily]

[grunts]

[reporter on TV] Daesan Chemical's CEO Cha Gukhui sped off

from the scene like she was fleeing, driving the car herself.

According to the prosecution, CEO Cha entered through another entrance…

[♪ music ends]

What kind of stunt is this?

Did you ask him why?

He hasn't been taking my calls for days.

[Gangcheon sighs]

[phone vibrating]

MR. YEOM

Yes, sir.

Give me.

[Gangcheon sighs]

Cha Gangcheon speaking.

Are you aware that you're cutting open

the goose that lays the golden eggs for you?

[Jangseon] Gosh, Chairman.

Do you think I'd be dumb enough to gut the goose that lays golden eggs?

I'm hurt that you'd think so low of me.

You set up the Yuseong Chemical takeover for us,

so why hand my daughter over to the prosecution?

Turn Cha Gukhui over to the prosecution?

It wasn't my doing.

Chairman?

I figured you'd be upset about that.

That's actually why I called President Huh.

[Gangcheon clears throat]

[Jangseon] Cha Gukhui needs to cooperate with the prosecution's investigation,

or she could end up getting detained.

I'll hang up now.

Cha Gukhui is staying silent, playing defense at the prosecution.

We don't need Cha Gukhui's testimony.

It's crucial that Cha Gangcheon feels the threat of his daughter being taken.

We should've ditched the two trillion won in Seo Dongju's head

and focused on taking over Daesan instead

long ago.

I booked the private room.

Why are you sitting here?

You don't have much time.

Right. I do need to head back soon, but still…

Just jajangmyeon?

Did you

call me out all of a sudden because of your aunt going to the prosecution?

No.

I see.

Let's eat first. I'm hungry.

She'll be fine. She's got my uncle, after all.

Wait…

I'll barely have the time to finish the food.

[Huicheol slurps] Mmm…

By the way,

you'll see me later at home tonight.

Why meet during a tight lunch break?

I'm not going home tonight.

Let's get a divorce.

[♪ somber music playing]

I should head back.

I'm sure

you have thought about divorce for many days.

But I'm hearing it now.

You didn't expect me to just agree to divorce

right away, did you?

Also, I…

[sighs]

I like you more than you think, Eunnam.

I'm not divorcing you.

I won't.

It's not because I've started hating you.

If we get a divorce, all those Daesan shares from your grandfather…

[sighs]

You'd have to give them back.

Are you okay with that?

Yes.

[♪ music fades]

[inhales sharply]

[♪ ominous music playing]

[shop owner] Do you mean Sister Agnes' car accident?

The police asked for copies of the CCTV footage back then,

so I copied all three spots.

But they said they didn't need it soon after,

so I just shoved it somewhere.

Where did I put it?

Yes, it's here.

Yes.

Here.

[♪ music ends]

Eunnam.

Hey.

Are you busy? Heading somewhere?

Eunnam, you…

I'm sorry, Mom.

[scoffs]

[♪ tense music playing]

[Dongju] The day you didn't show up for our trip,

I got shot on the yacht and lost my memory.

[Dongju] I wanted to master it

and play it for you whenever you wanted…

I'm hungry.

[gasps]

[knocking on door]

Your mom and I talked about you.

I'm against the divorce.

Your grandfather is starting to show signs of dementia.

Stress and shocks are the last things he needs.

[Eunnam] I'll…

I'll talk to him carefully.

Breaking the prenup

comes with a hefty penalty.

It's way more than the shares you got when you got married.

-[Dongju] This is the chairman's recipe… -[Eunnam gasps]

[♪ ominous music playing]

I'll tell Prosecutor Yeom to come.

Go back with him.

-[door closes] -[Eunnam exhales]

DAESAN CHEMICAL CEO CHA GUKHUI FACING ARREST

BANK DENIES DAESAN ENERGY'S CREDIT LETTER

It's only a matter of time before Daesan Group falls into our hands.

I can't help but resent the foolish days when we clung to

the measly two trillion won tied up with Seo Dongju.

If there's a hitch in the crude oil import reserves,

things could get serious, sir.

[Jangseon] That's exactly what we're waiting for.

A fixer who unlocks frozen funds and fills empty oil tanks.

You, President Huh, will step in to save Daesan Group.

I'm on my way to meet The Elder.

I'll go drive in the final wedge.

[♪ music fades]

You're saying we should split up Daesan and hand it over to another group?

I'm not saying we should tear Daesan Group apart.

I'm saying

we put Huh Ildo at the top of Daesan because he's obedient to me.

The one obedient to you…

No, obedient to us. [laughs]

With just the National Patriotism Fund we set up in Switzerland,

I have plenty to play politics my way.

Your way?

[♪ tense music playing]

No, it's the politics we want.

Mr. President.

You just serve a five-year term, but what about after that?

And after that?

Your laid-back, naive attitude and ideas…

Let me put it this way.

Lee Cheolyong is one selfish bastard.

[exhales]

[♪ music fades]

Hello, sir.

I'll get going now.

[Gangcheon] Okay.

Chairman…

I'd like to see Director Seo.

Could I visit him in the hospital?

He won't recognize you.

All this time, I just heard he was a little sick

and would return once he recovered, so I've been just waiting.

But now I feel like

I've been too indifferent as his direct superior.

[Gangcheon] It's fine.

Besides, you're not Director Seo's direct superior anymore.

You have Daesan Group to run.

Just focus on your job.

[Gihyeon] Yes, I'll hurry to convene the board meeting.

[Gangcheon] Okay.

[door opens]

[door closes]

I'm pushing forward

with Chief Choi's promotion to group vice chairman.

Pardon?

I decided it a while ago, but it's been delayed.

With all the buzz around Daesan Energy, now's the perfect time.

Father.

You didn't even discuss it with me.

[Gangcheon sighs]

[Gangcheon] On one hand,

you're my son-in-law, the man Deokhui loves.

On the other, you're Yeom Jangseon's trusted apprentice.

You're valuable to me in both ways.

But you being Yeom's favored junior

doesn't hold much value for me now.

Go confront Yeom Jangseon head-on.

[♪ tense music playing]

Father.

Make yourself a junior he fears.

Create a new half of your usefulness.

Yeom Jangseon can't shake me.

Once Chief Choi becomes vice chairman and Director Seo returns,

everything will be resolved.

Once Seo Dongju returns,

everything will be resolved.

CHAIRMAN'S SECRETARIAT CHOI GIHYEON

[chuckles]

[line ringing]

It's the chairman's order.

-Call an emergency board meeting… -[door opens]

Hold on, I'll call you back.

President Huh.

Have a seat.

Listen to what I'm about to say

without misunderstanding.

The chairman's not in great health.

What? He seemed fine when I saw him.

Physically,

he's still holding up all right.

Then what's…

[Ildo] Yes.

For now, he still recognizes us.

But we don't know how long that'll last.

Your promotion to vice chairman…

He might not remember approving it.

From now on,

you need to discuss all group matters with me first.

[Boyeon] Gosh.

You're here. [chuckles]

We are coming back from the herbal clinic.

I see.

Lately, Eunnam hasn't been eating well, and I was worried.

For a moment,

I dared to hope that maybe our ancestors had blessed Huicheol

with a child. [chuckles]

Well, it turns out it's not the case.

The ancestors urge us to put in more effort. [chuckles]

Hurry and bring him inside.

Well, I'll be off.

Okay.

Thanks for hanging in there and sticking it out, Eunnam.

I'm working on getting the money to pay the penalty

for breaking the marriage.

[♪ somber music playing]

Eunnam, I didn't kill…

your father, Yeo Sunho.

That's a lie.

I took a half-day and left work early.

I heard my aunt took you to the herbal clinic.

You must be tired from the trip.

My aunt got ahead of herself today,

but maybe we should start putting in some effort…

Even if we have a child, I still want a divorce.

Huicheol.

I can't afford to consider your feelings.

I'm only…

thinking about myself.

If we had a kid, it'd give me more strength…

more reason to hold on to you.

That's what I think.

Why did you quit rugby?

What?

You said you used your uncle's influence to kick Seo Dongju,

the guy you hated most, off the team.

Did it get boring without him?

Do we have to talk about him right now?

-Huicheol. -What?

You liked me the moment you saw me. Practically in ten seconds.

[scoffs]

In one second.

I thought, "What a jackpot."

My uncle told me that I had to marry you no matter what.

He was half threatening me when I went to meet you.

But you came because your grandfather promised you stocks for marrying me.

You said it wasn't a bad start since I seemed to like you.

Marrying me for stocks, that sounded like you wanted…

my deep love…

to me.

I was nuts.

After you found out I'd been with Seo Dongju,

I stopped being a woman to you and became a trophy

from your competition with Dongju.

Yes, when I found out the girl I fell for at first sight

dumped that thug and picked me,

I was over the moon.

What's wrong with that?

I'm going to wash up.

Let's have dinner at the main house.

Your aunt is making eel soup.

We'll talk more after dinner.

[sighs]

[door opens]

[door closes]

[♪ ominous music playing]

UNCLE-IN-LAW

[♪ mysterious music playing]

What?

Nine…

[keypad beeping]

[device beeps]

[Gukhui] Goodness.

[keypad beeping]

-It's no use, Gukhui. -[Gukhui exclaims]

Ildo…

[♪ foreboding music playing]

Come sit.

How long have you been

taking the dollars from there?

[♪ music fades]

Are you saying the money in this safe isn't from the Korea Mint

but from the US Federal Reserve?

[gasps]

My goodness.

That note…

I found it by pure chance.

I found it in Father's pencil holder.

When?

When did I find it? Well…

Just yesterday.

Or the day before.

Or the day before that.

Or the day way before…

Ildo!

You know the new safe code, right?

Aren't you here to steal from that safe too?

I guess we could go confess to your father

and get scolded together.

[exhales]

I won't tell anyone you were here.

What about you being here?

Can I go blab about it everywhere?

Whatever you want.

Ildo.

I'm about to get dragged to the prosecution

and detained on behalf of Daesan!

Do you understand?

Neither Father nor you could care less, and I was so fed up,

I figured I'd grab some cash. So I came for my first time today.

Let's both

keep this a secret.

[door opens]

[door closes]

LIQUOR SAFE INNER SAFE

[Gukhui breathing heavily]

[exhales]

Looks like Ildo doesn't know the safe code either.

The code worked fine until yesterday,

so who changed it?

Father?

The day the chairman had Seo Dongju deliver the money to you

to ask you to halt the Daesan Energy sale,

after he took the dollars out,

he must've changed the code to one only he knows.

Then it was changed not long ago, wasn't it?

You should've made your move before he did that.

Ildo.

You're not holding out hope

that Seo Dongju will recover and hand over the safe code, right?

No, sir.

[Jangseon] Okay, that's good to hear.

I was worried that you might be hesitating right before the big move.

Just a pointless concern.

[♪ melancholy music playing]

CHAIRMAN CHA GANGCHEON

[Jangseon] Chairman Huh Ildo of Daesan Group.

I thought about giving you a gun,

but I prepared something easier and more effective, Chairman Huh.

I'll make sure

everything is…

wrapped up the right way.

[♪ ominous music playing]

That's always the problem.

-[phone vibrates] -[man] Hand me the screwdriver.

MR. YEOM

[man] More to the left.

Yes, sir.

Yes.

Yes.

I understand how you feel.

But isn't it reasonable to assume that Seo Dongju killed Cho Yangchun?

[Administrator] He's not the kind who'd give up his life that easily.

Administrator.

Losing manpower for the sake of our country isn't new.

It's happened time and again.

Let go of Cho Yangchun

and focus on the next task.

[Administrator] Yes, sir.

When we complete this mission,

I'll make sure Cho Yangchun's family lives off rent money for life.

[♪ ominous music playing]

The job's been started.

Okay.

[line ringing]

This is Manager Cheon.

Mr. Yeom wants to have dinner out together.

So, is it just going to be me, Huicheol, and Mr. Yeom?

[Guho] Yes.

Go ahead first. Mr. Yeom will join you with Prosecutor Yeom.

UNCLE-IN-LAW

[phone vibrates]

[Jangseon] I got your photos.

Let's talk about it in person.

[♪ music fades]

I'll give you the original photos after I get a divorce without the penalty.

Cheon Guho is my guy.

But your father, Huh Ildo…

has got nothing to do with me.

So why should I take a loss and agree to your divorce without the penalty?

I know you're trying to

make Huh Ildo the chairman of Daesan Group.

Just the suspicion that Huh Ildo shot at a Daesan director

would make huge headlines.

I understand very well what my niece-in-law is asking for.

[♪ tense music playing]

[♪ music fades]

Hello.

You always show up on time for the shift change.

I'm usually late.

I'm happy with the overtime pay.

He probably won't wake up till morning.

I handled the bathroom duty.

Please keep an eye on him while you rest.

Okay.

Take care.

-Good night. -Good night.

[♪ suspenseful music playing]

Buried Hearts

[Administrator] Yeo Eunnam dies today.

If Eunnam runs, the hitman will be on her tail to finish the job.

Spill everything about how you tried to ruin Taeyun's future.

-[Dosu] Father! -Turn right here!

[Eunnam] Dongju, don't worry about me.

I'll be at the safest place.

[grunting]

I want you to kill Seo Dongju.

[Cheolyong] He's a dangerous guy,

determined to confront me.

[Dongju] I'll kill you

when your life is worth enough

to satisfy my revenge.
