(Episode 9)

You know everything? What does it mean?

What do I have to do with Da Hee taking time off school?

What did I ever do to her?

- Do you really not know? - No. That's why I'm asking.

She tried to kill herself because of you.

What?

She even tried to kill yourself because of what you did.

But you don't know what you did?

Coward.

This is ridiculous.

What did you just say?

Is that all?

Yes, I had some fun with her.

When I learned your crush had a crush on me,

it sounded pretty fun.

So I toyed with her a little and dumped her.

She called me also to whine about how it was all my fault.

She said she was going to kill herself because of me.

So, is she dead?

She's still alive and well, isn't she?

You're not human. You're crazy.

Don't be overdramatic.

Tell the truth.

- About what? - Everything.

Tell the truth.

That you sexually assaulted Da Hee and blackmailed her.

Tell the adults everything.

What?

If you won't, I will.

Da Hee's keeping quiet because she's afraid of your dad,

but I will persuade her.

Did Da Hee say so? That I assaulted her?

This is crazy.

Hey. Did you believe that? You believe her?

You coward.

No, I never touched her.

Da Hee is lying.

I wanted to give you one last chance.

You're done for.

I said no!

It's really not true. Da Hee is lying.

She lied to you to get back at me.

Let's call her and ask.

You seem to think she won't talk.

You're wrong.

If she keeps quiet,

I will tell her parents.

I said I didn't do it!

Don't you believe me?

Don't you believe a friend?

"Friend"?

I'm not your friend.

You look down on me.

Because I put up with you,

you think I'm easy.

You put up with me?

Yes. I put up with you.

Do you know why I played along?

Because I thought we were friends.

Others don't know you,

but I do.

Because I wanted to believe you're not a jerk.

You coward.

You are so pretentious.

You are...

the worst.

Yes.

I did it. I did it!

Is that what you wanted to hear?

Why did you do it? Why?

No. It wasn't me!

Why did you hurt Da Hee?

Why? Why?

I said I didn't!

It looks like Eun Joo's car.

It's Eun Joo's car.

I think it is.

It's the back gate.

She was there that night.

She was there.

That's it.

What Eun Joo really wanted to hide...

wasn't the fact that Joon Seok was the ringleader.

Eun Joo knew what happened that night.

She wanted to hide something worse.

That's it.

Don't jump to conclusions.

She lied about going straight home with Joon Seok that night.

Why would she lie if she had nothing to hide?

Even if we're sure, without proof,

she can always get away.

Let's confirm if this is her car,

and if it is, we must find proof or a witness.

Unless we do, we can't prove anything.

How long...

have you known?

Shin Dae Gil called me that night.

It's Shin Dae Gil.

I called because I thought you should know.

That there was an accident,

and you asked him to cover it up.

He couldn't believe you.

You were a weak mother who did...

something dreadful without thinking to protect her son.

He could tell right away.

What were you thinking?

I was afraid that...

you'd find out, that it would come out.

You watched me suffer from fear and dread.

Was it fun?

Did you mock me?

I wore a deceitful mask...

and tried to comfort and show concern for In Ha.

That must've disgusted you.

You are a terrible man.

I only did what you wanted.

You didn't want me to know.

It was for my sake?

How could you...

do that when you knew all along?

Why didn't you tell me?

You never came to me!

When you had to protect Joon Seok, you didn't come to me.

The first person...

you should've thought of and come to was me.

But you tried to hide it from me.

Do you know how that feels like?

"You're no husband or father."

"Oh Jin Pyo, you're just a man who lives with us."

"Nothing more, nothing less."

You made that clear that day.

No.

I didn't.

I waited.

I waited for you to tell me first.

I gave you a chance.

Many times.

How is Seon Ho doing?

I'm sure you know already.

Since you're being so considerate,

why don't you visit them to confess?

Confess what?

I told you.

Rather than tell a lie that'll get found out,

tell a small truth to cover up a bigger lie.

Why didn't I tell you?

Why didn't you tell me?

Why not?

I was afraid.

That...

you'd hate Joon Seok.

That you'd doubt him forever instead of believing him.

I was so afraid of what I'd done...

that I couldn't tell you.

I didn't do it on purpose.

It was an accident, Mom.

I didn't think he would fall.

I believed Joon Seok.

I believed that it was an accident.

I really thought it was an accident.

Do you mean that you don't believe him now?

I don't.

I don't.

You heard it too.

You heard...

what Joon Seok did.

He denied it.

What if Seon Ho is right?

Seon Ho was duped too.

He should've believed Joon Seok.

No, Seon Ho will be right.

That's why...

That's why Joon Seok...

It's my fault.

It's my fault.

I didn't know Seon Ho was still alive.

I thought he had died.

Eun Joo.

I didn't think people would believe it was an accident.

I couldn't let Joon Seok's life get ruined.

I really thought it was an accident.

I should've called an ambulance. That's what I should've done.

It's already in the past.

I can't live like this anymore.

I live every moment in misery.

I don't think...

I can live like this anymore.

So what?

Are you going to go and ask them for forgiveness?

Are you going to hand over Joon Seok to the police yourself?

Go ahead and do it if you can.

Give this to the police.

Everything will be over once you hand this to the police.

But if you can't do that,

just trust Joon Seok.

Just keep thinking of it as an accident.

- It was nothing but an accident. - How can I do that?

I already know everything now.

How can I do that when I know the truth?

Can you do that?

The moment you disguised it as suicide,

it was no longer an accident.

It doesn't matter what the truth is.

What matters more is what you believe.

What you believe is the truth.

The truth is merely what we believe, think, and say.

What are you doing?

You're home.

Are you thinking about Seon Ho?

Did you eat dinner?

I did.

It's a cactus.

Yes.

The spines are pretty.

You think the spines are pretty?

Yes.

They're really soft and warm.

We just need to trust Joon Seok.

They won't be able to prove anything.

What if Da Hee...

- says something? - I told you that she is lying.

How...

How can you be so sure?

Whatever she said...

has nothing to do with Joon Seok.

Joon Seok did nothing wrong.

It was just an accident and a mistake.

You also need to believe that.

That's what you need to say...

and believe.

- I should check with Joon Seok. - He can't find out.

We can't let him find out about the recording file...

and the fact that we heard it.

If Joon Seok finds out, he'll get swayed.

He'll break down.

Then things will get out of hand.

If Joon Seok breaks down,

everything will be over.

- But honey... - You don't need to do anything.

You already did something you can't undo.

Don't even think of going to them...

to ask for forgiveness.

Just keep living in misery.

You're the one who created this misery.

Just bear with it.

I'm not going to let your mistake...

make me lose everything I worked so hard for.

Are you getting threatened?

He's the one who sent you the recording file.

I took care of it.

He won't be able to threaten me again.

Let's ambush him as soon as he goes in.

He used to be a detective.

There's no way he'd keep his son hidden in his house.

But we can't just wait here forever.

We can't guarantee that Mr. Ice will show up.

I'm trying to let him know that we're here.

What?

Then he'll call his son and tell him not to come home.

And instead, he'll go meet him himself.

His son needs money.

And the only person that drug addict can rely on is his dad.

How much is his son's debt?

He probably owes a lot of money because of Ki Deuk Cheol.

A school security officer won't be able to pay off all that debt.

Of course. He doesn't even own the house he's living in right now.

I'm pretty sure he already spent all his pension on Mr. Ice.

The back gate...

What?

Do you remember the color of the car...

that was parked in front of the back gate that night?

I think it was white.

- Do you remember the model? - No, I can't.

But one thing's for sure. It was a fancy car.

Was it this car?

I'm not sure.

Can you look closely?

I think so.

Really?

It's very similar.

Can you tell that to the cops?

I'm not even sure if my memory's correct.

If you at least tell them what you remember,

it'll be of great help to us.

Please, sir.

Okay, sure. It's nothing hard.

Thank you.

(It's because mothers are all a little crazy.)

(Any mother would want to listen to their children first.)

(School education lets you know the size of one's thoughts...)

(Money always...)

(Money always makes people get depressed in the end.)

(Adults always think they are correct.)

(Adults don't know anything.)

(It hurt me more to see Mercutio get murdered.)

(The mark of the immature man is...)

(that he wants to die nobly for a cause.)

(The person the Lord really would've liked...)

(would be the person who plays the kettle drums in the orchestra.)

(Where are you with whom?)

(No one is with me.)

(It's just me, myself, and I.)

Do you want to know what I want to do?

I always imagined a bunch of kids...

running around and having fun on a vast field of rye.

There are thousands of little kids,

and the only adult there is me.

And I'm standing right next to a cliff.

My job is to catch the kids whenever it seems like they are...

about to fall down the cliff.

Because kids just run around without thinking too much.

So whenever that happens, I'd show up out of nowhere...

and catch the kid so that he or she doesn't fall.

And that's what I'd be doing all day.

In other words,

I'd be the catcher in the rye.

I know it sounds stupid.

But that's what I want to become...

regardless of how stupid it may seem.

(The Catcher)

Mom.

Why aren't you answering my calls?

I was waiting for you at the academy.

I forgot.

How could you forget that?

Why didn't you pick up your phone?

I didn't hear it.

Is something wrong?

Nothing's wrong.

Are you sick?

I must be suffering from indigestion.

I'm not feeling well.

Did you take any medicine?

Get changed. You should have dinner.

Okay.

Hi, I'm Seon Ho's aunt.

Yes.

I'm sorry for calling you without notice,

but where are you?

Good. You're close by.

I actually have a favor to ask you.

This is the place, right?

Yes, but we shouldn't be here without telling them.

They're not answering my calls.

I asked you because I knew they wouldn't talk to me alone.

I'm sure they wouldn't kick out their own teacher.

Welcome.

Mr. Lee?

How have you been?

In Ha.

Why didn't you come to my house?

I wanted to talk to you alone.

Well, what is it about?

Seon Ho called Da Hee three times that night.

I think she's related to someone Seon Ho...

was supposed to meet.

She's not.

- But she called three times... - If that's why you're here,

I have nothing to tell you, so please leave.

I already told you Seon Ho wasn't trying to kill himself.

Please let me see Da Hee just once so I can prove...

Seon Ho's innocence.

Who told you he's innocent?

Mrs. Choi.

Who told you he's innocent?

Mrs. Choi.

Da Hee is sick.

Stop bothering her.

Bother her?

Why do you dislike Seon Ho so bad?

What did he ever do to you?

If you don't know anything, just stop!

What are you trying to prove to be this rude to us?

Hey.

- You have no idea... - Honey.

That's enough.

Mrs. Choi.

Go home.

- Please... - We have nothing to tell you!

Please just go home.

This is ridiculous.

Why does this taste so good when I'm feeling this awful?

Do you get it?

Well, soju always tastes the same.

Not that.

Do you get the attitude of Da Hee's parents?

Right, that.

Why do they hate Seon Ho so much?

They should tell me if there's a reason for that.

Do you have any notion of that?

I asked the students,

but it seems not much happened at school between them.

Da Hee and Seon Ho were both good students.

I don't think you know your students well.

I guess so.

I really know nothing about them.

Don't blame yourself.

- Here. - I've had enough.

And you've also had enough, Seon Ho's aunt.

My name is Kang Joon Ha.

Not Seon Ho's aunt.

Here.

At my first school,

there was an outcast.

So I tried to reason with the bullies.

I thought it'd be better for them to make peace...

than just send the case straight to School Violence Committee.

- Did they make peace? - They did!

They apologized, and they made peace with each other.

Then, the bully came to school with the parents the next day...

and tells me that I framed the bully with a coercive attitude.

The principal warned me of my wrong ways...

of teaching the kids.

That's pretty ridiculous.

It is ridiculous.

But still, your retirement is secured.

Who's going to secure it?

Once you get on the wrong side of the higher-ups,

you're going to have a really hard time too.

Every day I make dough about the size of myself,

and all I get is the pain on my shoulder and back.

And my bank balance keeps disappearing...

with the constantly changing prices of ingredients.

But you're doing what you like.

And you don't like what you do?

Being a teacher was my dream.

And you made it come true.

I did.

I wanted to be a good teacher.

But now,

I merely make a living.

What's more important than that?

To be able to make a living with what you've dreamed of,

you're fortunate.

When your dream is just a way to make a living,

it becomes a sad dream.

Now you're just being a spoiled boy who complains.

A spoiled boy?

Who's stopping you from being a good teacher?

Did that letter of warning flew in and stop you?

Stop trying to make excuses,

and be a good teacher.

What is...

a good teacher?

A teacher who lives for the students.

Not a teacher whose students exist for himself,

but a teacher who exist for the students.

Isn't that a good teacher?

Young Chul is lying.

I'm not trying to reveal Joon Seok is the ringleader.

That doesn't matter anymore.

Why Young Chul is lying.

That bothers me.

He does seem to be much closer to Joon Seok now.

I heard.

According to their classmate,

after Seon Ho's accident,

Young Chul and Joon Seok seemed closer.

After I heard that,

I thought that maybe Young Chul is...

hiding something about Seon Ho.

- I'll ask right now. - Wait.

He won't talk if you question him.

Why do you ask?

Seon Ho said he had someone to meet that night.

I was wondering who that person was.

I'm just asking if you know.

Who told you Seon Ho would meet someone?

So he was going to meet someone?

You know.

Don't you?

Who was he going to meet? Tell me.

I don't know.

This is a really important issue.

If someone pushed Seon Ho off the roof,

this could become a murder.

If you cover for someone, it makes you a criminal.

Are you sure Seon Ho didn't try to kill himself?

It's strange.

There was no note, and his phone disappeared.

Tell me everything you know.

You haven't forgotten what we promised, have you?

About your meeting Seon Ho?

Yes.

You didn't see him.

That's right.

I was just afraid there'd be a misunderstanding.

Don't worry.

I'm not like Gi Chan.

You're the only one I can rely on these days.

The others are losers.

I don't know anything.

Just be honest and tell me.

If you hide what you know,

you'll regret it later on.

I said I don't know anything. Will you stop bugging me?

- Hey. Hey, Young Chul. - Just stop.

"The Catcher"
-♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

You must eat well to fight well.

Chew carefully and eat it all.

I don't want leftovers.

From your homeroom teacher.

He must've come by really early.

Let's eat.

You should've woke me up...

You're up.

Did you cook all this?

Don't be too impressed.

Or you'll faint once you taste it.

It's so delicious.

The fridge must be empty. When did you make all this?

Someone else made the side dishes.

I made the soup though.

Did you buy the side dishes?

Come on, sit down.

Sit down and eat.

Oh, rice for breakfast?

Did you really cook all this?

It was as easy as picking my nose.

- That's gross. - It is.

It's disgusting.

Let's all eat.

I think I'm awesome.

You should eat too.

Yes. I'll enjoy it. Thanks.

Eat.

My pretty little puppy.

Get well soon.

My precious grandson.

Wake up.

Get up.

We enjoyed breakfast, thanks to you, Mother.

In Ha finished a whole bowl of rice for once.

It must've been a heavy load to bring to the hospital.

Don't do it again.

I'll come over if you call.

If it's about Park Seon Ho,

we all cooperated with the investigating police.

We did as the Education Office said...

and dealt with the matter according to a strict protocol.

- My goodness. - Who's he talking to?

I think it's a reporter.

- No. - A reporter?

I don't know where you heard such a groundless rumor,

but that's not at all true.

It's not something we must respond to.

I asked around...

and a lot doesn't correspond with your explanation.

There's talk that Oh Joon Seok is the ringleader.

That's just slander.

Aren't you shielding him because his father is the director?

How dare you say something so disrespectful?

Think about it.

Oh Joon Seok wasn't even punished.

Anyone would say you favored him over others.

You're testing my patience.

If you turn this groundless rumor into an article...

and slander our school or our staff's reputation,

I will take legal action.

Do you get that?

Darn it.

Gosh. Do you even know what reputation is?

According to a witness who saw the car by the back gate,

that car looked very similar to this.

They'll testify for us too.

Detective Kim.

Yes?

Get me Seo Eun Joo's license plate and model.

Okay.

It could be registered under the foundation or her husband.

Okay.

(Violent Crimes Team 2)

We think that Seo Eun Joo was at the scene that night.

Let's identify the car first.

You already did something you can't undo.

Don't even think of going to them...

to ask for forgiveness.

Just keep living in misery.

(Trustworthy police)

The car is registered to Seah Foundation.

It's the same model as the one in the video.

Can we check the dashcam?

There's no recovering a video if it was taped over.

We must check at least.

We can't be suspicious of her...

just because she drove past the school.

She passed by at the time of the incident.

There's a witness who even saw that it was parked.

Oh Joon Seok was in Seo Eun Joo's car.

And you know Oh Joon Seok isn't irrelevant from this case.

But it's just your speculation.

What did the police even do?

You didn't notice Seo Eun Joo's car passing by in the CCTV footage,

and you even failed to notice...

that there was a witness near the back gate.

Talking with the kids was just a formality.

And you kept saying we needed more evidence...

and never even tried to listen to the victims.

Back then, we didn't have any grounds to investigate.

I may have stayed still until now, but that's not going to be the case.

If the police continue to be insincere about this,

I'll use whatever I can...

including the press to solve this case.

I'll check their dashcam.

I'll also check the CCTVs near Oh Joon Seok's house.

What?

I'm not doing this because you just threatened me.

There was no excuse to investigate until now.

If we do anything rash just because we have a testimony,

things might backfire on us.

First, I'll meet Seo Eun Joo since I now have an excuse...

to talk to her.

But too much time has passed already.

Like what Detective Kim said,

there won't be anything left in the dashcam.

Can you check Seo Eun Joo and Oh Joon Seok's call logs?

That falls under the Personal Information Protection Act.

So I already told you that I need a warrant to do that.

I can't request for an official reinvestigation.

But I promise I'll do that if we find anything suspicious.

(Seoul Kangho Police Station)

Wait.

It's Seon Ho's hospital bill.

The hospital won't accept it...

because of what you told them.

They pleaded me to take it back.

So I brought it to you instead.

Do you still...

not believe me?

What can I do to make you believe me?

We've known each other for such a long time.

And it hurts to fall apart with you like this.

I almost forgot...

that people don't change.

Back in high school,

you were nice to me on the outside.

But it was just an act to make yourself seem nice.

You were pretentious and hypocritical.

You were like a doll locked behind a show window.

When I met you again after you became a mom,

I thought you'd changed a lot.

I also envied you a little because you seemed rich and relaxed.

But I was wrong.

You haven't changed at all.

You're no different either.

You're just like how you were back then.

You used to be so stubborn thinking that you're always right.

And you're still just the same.

You're right.

I'm stubborn.

But at least, I don't lie.

I never lied.

Did you leave the academy and come home right away?

I think I already answered that question.

Which route did you take?

I have no reason to answer that.

Should I tell you why you can't answer my question?

You were there...

on the exact day and time when Seon Ho fell.

I don't know how much you were involved in the accident,

but you were definitely there.

That's a terrible thing to imagine,

and you're talking about it like it's nothing.

Because reality is a lot more terrible than my imagination!

You're a mother.

So you probably just wanted to protect Joon Seok.

I think I might also go mad if I continue listening to you.

You should go.

You're...

mistaken.

You're not protecting Joon Seok...

by hiding the truth.

It's more like throwing him in the fiery pit.

You're the one who's mistaken.

You feel guilty because you failed to protect Seon Ho.

But you need to stop taking it out on me.

Can you even sleep at night?

I can't sleep properly.

What about you?

You must feel...

miserable as well.

You should go.

You met Soo Ho?

Yes.

She told me that she'll tell her family...

if I told her beforehand about publishing the article.

But I felt like I should tell you before that.

Are you going to write the article?

Of course.

But I won't write it if you don't approve of it.

I'm only trying to write it to help the victim.

But if the victim's family doesn't want it,

I shouldn't write it.

After I talked to Soo Ho,

I became certain that your son didn't try to commit suicide.

So I went around asking people.

But it wasn't easy to find any evidence.

I couldn't interview any of the school staff or the assailants.

And I feel like it's going to take a long time to find evidence.

So first, I'm thinking about writing an article based on facts.

How much information are you talking about?

Everything that's happened until now.

If an article gets published,

you'll be able to catch the public's attention.

Then the reinvestigation might begin earlier than expected.

Can you send me the article before it gets published?

Of course.

Then please go ahead and write it.

Okay.

Oh, and one more thing.

This is merely my speculation.

But a lot more people might be involved in this case.

I'm saying things might end up getting buried...

if the people who wish to hide something outnumber you.

I won't let that happen.

Regardless of what happens, I'm never going to give up.

I'm going to fight for the truth until the end.

If that's how determined you are, I'll do my best to help.

Thank you.

What? A detective is going to come to our house?

Apparently, he has something to ask regarding Seon Ho.

He said he received a report from someone,

but he won't tell me anything in detail.

- A report? - Yes.

In Ha just came by a while ago.

And she was sure that I was at the scene.

What if she found some kind of evidence?

That's not possible.

If she did, I would've heard about it already.

What do you mean?

I'm saying there is no evidence so don't feel nervous.

I'll be right there. So don't try to make up any lies.

It might backfire on us.

It's okay. Stay calm.

Everything's fine. Everything will be fine.

Hello, sir. This is Oh Jin Pyo.

Why are you moving him to another hospital?

You said the hospital has a great facility and nice doctors.

It's a long story.

Are you here to talk to In Ha?

Yes.

But I guess I'll talk to her next time.

By the way, have you heard from Kyung Seon since then?

No.

She's not the type to do nothing.

What else is she going to do?

I'm not scared of people like her.

- The reporter called you, right? - No, I didn't get the call.

I got a call from the reporter.

You wanted to see us because of that?

We should work together...

to stop a ridiculous article before it gets published.

If that proves to be hard, we should at least agree on what to say.

We called for this meeting to discuss that.

Why would you bother with that?

Just ignore them outright.

Talking to reporters always creates a headache.

If they write something absurd,

just sue them for defamation.

Sorry to interrupt,

but why do you talk to my husband as if you were his boss?

- I'm one year older than him. - It's all right.

Gosh, what is your problem?

Since we are here face-to-face, let me ask you this.

Why on earth did you tell Joon Ha about the parents meeting?

You had that little meeting and left me out.

Did you think I'd stand up for that?

What do you mean we left you out?

What do you think? You know darn well you did!

Enough. Arguing like this won't help our kids.

Let's put aside our personal feelings...

and try to make this work for our children's sake.

That's true.

We won't gain anything by fighting like this.

So why don't you apologize to my wife first?

That's ridi...

I mean, that's not right.

From what I heard, your wife was at fault.

You're full of baloney.

Excuse me?

Please watch what you say.

What else would you call it then if not baloney?

Honey, get up.

I can't deal with people like them.

We're done here.

Pay for your drink before you go!

Shouldn't they pay for their own drinks?

Goodness, it's always money with you.

Ms. Ham, we finished cleaning.

Did you guys all work together?

You guys didn't hand it off to 1 or 2 students, right?

No, everyone cleaned together.

Good work. Off you go.

Thanks. Bye, Ms. Ham.

- What's going on? - I don't know.

(Faculty Office 2)

If such things happened, you should have talked to the teachers first.

Seon Ho's parents are already very upset.

Why would you rattle them with your little lies,

and slander your friend?

I didn't lie.

How dare you interrupt while your teacher is talking!

I heard that you pulled a similar trick...

at your old school and caused a ruckus.

Have you learned nothing from the experience?

You should have repented and focus on your studies.

Students should focus on their studies and nothing else!

Your family is already struggling financially.

It's all the more reason to be motivated and study harder!

- But you had to butt in where... - What's going on here?

Can't you see? I'm consulting her.

She's my student.

If she needs to be consulted, I'll do it.

We are in this big mess...

because you are incapable of controlling your students.

Go back to the classroom.

- I'm not done here. - Yes, you are.

Sir.

I think we should let her go for now.

Dong Hee.

I won't let this slide.

I'm reporting this to the principal.

Be ready to write your apology letter.

- Sir, that's too much... - What did Dong Hee do wrong?

- Not now... - Don't you know what she did wrong?

I really don't.

This is exactly why your students cause so many problems.

Their homeroom teacher is clueless about his own students.

No wonder everything is in disarray there.

You didn't answer my question.

What did Dong Hee do wrong?

Mr. Lee, it's enough.

She slandered her classmate and stirred up a commotion.

Slandering her classmate and stirring up a commotion.

That's only your opinion.

All she did was to tell them honestly what she knew.

She made up lies and spread it!

How do you know whether it's a lie or not?

Only she made such accusations!

How many testimonies do we need to convince you?

10? 100?

Or do you need the whole school?

- What? - What if...

Dong Hee is the only one telling the truth?

Are you questioning my judgment now?

We teach them to be honest, brave...

and to be upright.

Yet the school and teachers...

hush and reprimand them when they speak out.

I didn't do such a thing.

Do you think I'm looking out for my own interest?

I'm doing this for school.

Without the children,

there's no school.

And there are no teachers.

How noble you are.

Good for you.

I'll never let this one slide.

You wait and see.

I'm fine.

How can you be fine after he treated you like that?

But Mr. Lee stood up for me.

You got angry for me too.

That's a given.

I was so happy that I had someone on my side.

I'm really fine.

What?

You're as bad as my brother.

If they do this to you again, you tell them right in the face.

Tell them what?

Anything you want to say.

But where are we going?

You'll see.

Hello.

How are you?

I'm pretty tired today.

I'd appreciate it if you could make it quick.

We have questions for your wife.

Thank you.

- Goodness. - It's all right.

Take a seat.

We know you're busy. We'll make it short.

You are familiar with Seon Ho's incident, correct?

We know you're busy. We'll make it short.

You are familiar with Seon Ho's incident, correct?

We'd like to know your whereabouts...

on the day of the accident.

Why?

The traffic camera in front of Seah Middle School...

captured your car.

Also, we have a witness who said...

the car parked by the back entrance is the same car as yours.

We'd like to hear your alibi on that night.

Is this an official investigation?

No. This is not official, and we don't have a warrant.

So you don't have to answer if you don't want to.

But we just need to confirm...

since there was a report.

There's no reason why we can't tell you.

But I find it a bit offensive.

I'm sorry if you felt that way.

Even so, we should still cooperate.

After all, it's regarding a student from our school.

Go on and tell them.

I picked up Joon Seok from the academy and came home.

I'm sure there was a faster route from the academy to your house.

So why did you drive past the school?

I use that route very often.

There aren't a lot of cars,

and there aren't that many traffic lights.

So it sometimes takes a shorter time to come home.

Did you park your car in front of the back gate?

No.

Then why did you go to the back gate?

It's a dead end there.

Joon Seok and I were talking about his studies.

And I accidentally turned left...

when I was supposed to turn right.

I see.

She often makes that kind of mistakes.

If it's necessary, you can take her dashcam and check.

Really?

Then we'll give it back to you after we take a look.

I'll let the driver know. So you can take it on your way back.

Okay, thank you.

Is there anything else you'd like to ask?

No, thank you for your cooperation.

It wasn't anything difficult. It's only right that we cooperate.

Hearing you say that makes me feel a lot more at ease.

We'll be off now.

We won't see you out.

Let's go.

There's no point in watching this. It's already pretty obvious.

It'll give us an excuse to come back again to return it.

Do you actually believe Park Seon Ho's parents?

(Superintendent)

Why aren't you answering? It's the superintendent.

Oh Jin Pyo probably called him.

You should answer your phone.

They wrote a memo promising that they won't bully Dong Hee.

So you don't need to worry.

I also asked her homeroom teacher to look out for her.

So he'll keep an eye on her.

Thank you.

Why are you being so polite all of a sudden?

It's awkward.

Did you eat dinner?

I have a part-time job to go to.

I told you to focus on your studies while I handle everything.

I'll take care of myself.

Is it a delivery service?

I work at a convenience store.

Okay, don't skip your meals.

Okay.

I'll see you.

Mr. Park.

Yes?

Dong Hee told me...

that the CCTV was broken that day.

Is that true?

Yes. Why do you ask?

Because I feel like you could find the answer to this pretty easily.

What do you mean?

You believe that Seon Ho didn't try to commit suicide.

Then that means someone got rid of the footage on purpose.

And there's only one person who could've gotten rid of that...

before the cops arrived.

One person?

The person who found Seon Ho and called 911.

Welcome.

What's good here?

Where are you right now?

The academy called.

I heard you skipped the academy again today.

There's something more important than going to the academy.

I'll tell you next time.

I won't be late. Don't worry. Dong Hee is with me right now.

Okay, bye.

Your mom must be worried. We should go.

Let's wait a little bit more.

We don't know when she'll show up.

I'm sure she'll come out some time.

Da Hee is surely hiding something.

I'm definitely sure it has something to do with Joon Seok.

I know I should've properly thanked you before.

I'm sorry for being very late.

Don't mention it.

I didn't even do anything that incredible.

If it weren't for you,

Seon Ho actually might've died.

How's Seon Ho doing?

He's still in the same condition,

but I trust that he'll get better.

I hope he does.

My wife and I think...

Seon Ho fell that day...

because someone pushed him from the rooftop.

But of course, we have no evidence or witness.

So it's going to be hard to prove anything.

We would've been able to find out what happened...

if the CCTV had been running.

But it just had to be broken that day.

And that always bothered me.

Yes, I'm sure it did.

I know this may be a bit far stretched.

But what if the CCTV wasn't broken?

If someone actually deleted the footage on purpose,

I started to wonder...

who it could be.

That's when I suddenly thought of someone I was never suspected.

He seemed so nice. So I felt nothing but gratitude towards him.

But I realized that he was the only person that was capable...

of deleting the CCTV footage that day.

That is also just my speculation,

and I have no evidence.

So there's no way for me to prove it.

And even at this moment, I still don't think he's a bad guy.

I'm sure he had a reason.

He must've had a desperate reason that gave him no other choice.

Can you please...

tell me that reason?

(Beautiful World)

Listen to me carefully.

Joon Seok was the ringleader, not me.

Why are you so obsessed with an attempted suicide case?

Aren't you going to get promoted? How long will you stay a lieutenant?

Did Seo Eun Joo disguise it as a suicide attempt?

Or was it Director Oh Jin Pyo who gave the orders?

I know you met Seon Ho on the day of the accident.

Just be honest with me so you can put down your guilt.

That's the only way you'll be able to live a proper life.

I noticed that you hired people to write comments.

Let's see who will win this fight.

My brother came to see you that day.

You know something, don't you?

That's why you're avoiding us.

What's wrong?
