THIS DRAMA IS A WORK OF FICTION.
ANY RESEMBLANCE TO ACTUAL PERSONS, PLACES,

ORGANIZATIONS,
OR EVENTS IS PURELY COINCIDENTAL.

PRODUCTION GUIDELINES WERE FOLLOWED
WHEN FILMING CHILDREN AND ANIMALS.

What do you want?

I want things to go back.

To before you proposed the Special Act.

Are you determined
to block it until the end?

You've done enough.

So stop here.

Is that what you want?

For that reason,

you're dredging up those painful memories
that tormented you all this time,

even bringing up the illegitimate child?

Answer me.

Yes.

Let's go back as if nothing ever happened

because nothing has happened.

Even if I give up on the Special Act,

we can't go back.

Nothing ever happened?

Nothing occurred?

The things you said here
today will haunt you.

It doesn't matter.

As long as I can stop the Special Act.

What exactly are you hiding?

What truth scares you
more than the illegitimate child?

LEE HWA JIN

EPISODE 8

Why are you going this far?

The video Ko A Ram backed up to the cloud,

you had Park Su A spread it online, right?

No matter how I think about it,

it feels too much.

So you didn't just take the divorce case.

I thought it was too quick
for the school violence victims

to speak up and file lawsuits.

So it was you all along.

Secretary Shin,
you directed those children,

so you will also find it hard
to escape punishment.

I don't intend to avoid it.

If I commit crimes, I must pay.

I can't understand
why you are doing this, Secretary Shin.

Didn't you join Hyun Min Cheol's campaign
because your husband was unfairly blamed

and denied industrial accident recognition?

Didn't you enter politics
to correct wrongs?

I don't understand how someone like that

would commit illegal acts
in the name of helping the president-elect.

You know more about me than I expected.

Other lawyers delegate
background checks to someone else,

but I do them myself.

Just like I did with Ko
A Ram and Park Su A.

This isn't for the president-elect.

If it were for him,

I couldn't have driven
his only daughter to that state.

Then who is this for? What's the purpose?

'Our goal isn't punishment.'

'We want our families back safely.'

'What I want isn't revenge.'

'I want my parents to come home.'

That's from your eulogy
after losing parents

in the 2012 H Chemical fire, Attorney Kang.

You've investigated me thoroughly.

Why did you take the divorce case?

Why side with Madam?

What do you want?

I don't think I'm obliged to answer that.

What I want is the truth.

And for those who committed crimes
to be punished accordingly.

Victims shouldn't become perpetrators.

Like Do Tae Hoon,

wrongly accused of arson, even after death.

If you sided with Madam for revenge,

remember this.

Madam already knows that.

By entrusting the lawsuit to you,

she's thoroughly exploiting
your desire for revenge.

It doesn't matter.

After using Madam to get revenge
on the president-elect,

is it Madam's turn next?

Or,

do you plan to pit them against
each other through the divorce case

so both are ruined?

Madam is someone who uses others,

not someone to be used.

Let me ask again.

What do you truly want?

Our 10 minutes are up.

My client is waiting.

We might want the same thing.

If you truly want revenge,

if you truly want proper punishment,

the answer is not the divorce case,
it's the Special Act.

If only the Special Act passes...

Listen.

You don't know how terrifying hope can be,
right?

For 15 years, I tried everything.

Street protests, petitions...

Every possible effort
to pass the Special Act.

That's how desperate I was.

I even became a lawyer.

Madam possesses something.

If you hand that over to me,
the Special Act can pass.

- Something?
- It's something that holds

the Peace and Liberty
Party members in check.

Probably recordings or accounting ledgers.

- Just that...
- You want me to steal them?

You said there's nothing you haven't done.

Then doing one more thing

shouldn't be a problem, right?

Are you refusing to listen to me?

Release Woo Young first.

That comes first.

So you don't trust me.

I've never had a father myself.

That's why I want to give
our child a father.

'Our child'?

You said not to make the child anxious.

It's thanks to you.

If I hadn't met you,

my life would've been so boring.

Was the person at the police station
the child's father?

Release Woo Young first.

Then I'll do as you say.

Even if I release the father,

what if you don't listen to me then?

I hadn't thought about that.

So you don't trust me either, Madam.

ATTORNEY KANG SEON HO

The subscriber you dialed is unavailable,
connecting to voicemail.

You'll be charged for this call.

This is Cha Su Yeon.

You must be under investigation.

Come home as soon as you get this message.

In exchange for releasing
the child's father,

we should draft a document
agreeing to my terms.

A legally binding document
made with a lawyer present.

So once that document is drafted,

you'll release Woo Young?

If we can't trust each other,

we must trust the law.

Is this satisfactory?

Special Act for the H
Chemical Fire Investigation

and Building a Safe Society.

DO TAE HOON SPECIAL ACT VOTE TOMORROW

The vote on the so-called

Do Tae Hoon Special Act approaches.

Contrary to ex-Rep. Bae Yeong Seon's
promise, Peace and Liberty Party

adopted opposition as
official party stance.

We'll hear from Peace and Liberty Party
floor leader Noh Cheol Jae.

We never changed our official stance.

NOH CHEOL JAE, PLP FLOOR LEADER

We only corrected former
lawmaker Bae Yeong Seon,

who made unauthorized deals in exchange
for the Prime Minister position.

How long has it been since the election?

We should be uniting
divided public sentiment,

not pointlessly pushing a Special Act

to stir blame games,

dividing the people further.

How does dividing people
help the national interest?

Are you opposing the Special
Act as party policy?

We follow natural order. The proper course.

Of course, we'll hold another meeting
before tomorrow's vote.

That's all for today.

- Mr. Noh.
- Please say something!

Attention is growing on
whether the president-elect's

first pledge will be nullified.

You've done enough.

So,

stop here.

Madam left.

But he's been

standing still for hours.

Secretary.

You can't just come here like this.

Our call stays secret, okay?

If the president-elect finds out,
I'm done for.

This is Shin Hae Rin.

I need to tell you something urgent.

Then I'll come in.

SPECIAL ACT FOR THE H CHEMICAL FIRE
INVESTIGATION AND BUILDING A SAFE SOCIETY

I heard Chief Secretary Lim
offered to pass the Special Act.

You shouldn't know about this,
Secretary Shin.

I heard it directly from
Chief Secretary Lim.

What else did he say?

He said you didn't accept the offer.

Was that your urgent matter?

Are you here to interrogate
me about rejecting it?

No.

I'll get the Special Act passed.

I'm not asking for help.

I'm telling you not to interfere.

- Secretary Shin.
- Don't forget why you filed for divorce.

It was for the Special Act.

Not for Madam's sake.

I thought President Yoo
was blocking the Special Act.

That's why I tried to protect her
from the president.

But now you know.

The one blocking the Special Act
all along was Madam.

I need to verify something first.

- Once I confirm it...
- Whoever blocks investigation is the culprit.

Secretary Shin.

If Madam's the culprit blocking
the Special Act, she must be punished.

Only then can Do Tae
Hoon's innocence be proven.

Don't you understand?

Politics isn't that simple.

I know.

You have never once used that excuse
to avoid addressing an issue.

Are you saying I've changed?

Aren't you the one who's changed?

Don't block the Special Act
under the pretext of protecting Madam.

Don't stand in my way.

I can endure anything else.

But if the past 20 years I've lived for you

were for nothing,

I cannot endure that.

My wife told me to give up the Special Act.

If we push through the Special Act,

she threatened to expose my affair.

Do you mean Lee Hwa Jin?

Did you know?

I had a feeling Madam was misunderstanding.

But it's not true, is it?

She said the truth doesn't matter.

Lee Hwa Jin will go public herself.

Would she go that far...

You're right.

I've never shied away
from political complexities.

But what I face now
is infinitely more complicated.

Give me time.

Time to resolve this.

There's no time left.

There's still time before the inauguration.

No.

I'm not talking about your time.

I'm talking about the time I have left.

I made myself clear.

Don't block the Special Act.

SPECIAL ACT FOR THE H CHEMICAL FIRE
INVESTIGATION AND BUILDING A SAFE SOCIETY

- Secretary Shin.
- Do you think I'd step aside quietly?

If I so much as open my mouth,
Hyun Min Cheol, you!

You'll be gone in an instant!

Do you have any idea how many secrets
I've held over the past 20 years?

What happens when I reveal them?

You can't even imagine!

Secretary, what's wrong with you?
Have you lost your mind?

Do you think you can push me out
like this and get away with it?

Calm down. Get out, now.

- Let go!
- Just leave, now.

- Let go.
- Leave.

Talk to me instead.

Breaking, internal conflict erupts.

Secretary Shin confronts President-elect.

Yelling and cursing openly.

He cut down the top contributor
to the election. Isn't that expected?

PARTICIPATORY NATIONAL'S PARTY

PARTICIPATORY NATIONAL'S PARTY MEETING
TO TABLE SPECIAL ACT

The united front of parties
except Peace and Liberty Party is cracking.

Given the divorce and affair, it's no
wonder the president-elect's credibility

CHOI JI WON, PNP FLOOR LEADER

has hit rock bottom.

Some members already demand
the president-elect's resignation from the party.

23RD PRESIDENTIAL TRANSITION OFFICE

If we recklessly push

KWON SANG HO, POLICY CHAIRMAN

the Special Act and fail,

we'll all take collateral damage.

Representative Kwon, quiet for a moment.

What is this? What's happening?

Sir, what is this about?

Secretary Shin confronting
the president-elect?

The vote's tomorrow.

We're at war with the opposition.
Must we fight internally too?

Jeez.

Secretary Shin's been the president-elect's
right hand for 20 years.

He should have celebrated her as
a founding hero, but he just threw her out.

This isn't just about the president-elect.

She's the insider who knows
every corner of our election dealings.

If she turns that knowledge against us...

Then let's hear what Secretary Shin wants.

We must appease her somehow.

This is absurd.

PARTY SENTIMENT REGARDING
DO TAE HOON'S LEGISLATIVE PLEDGE

Hello. Chairman Choi?

Ah, Secretary Shin. It's me.

Well...

I heard there was some unpleasantness.

Unpleasantness?

This isn't personal resentment.

Losing one junior staffer like me
won't shake the party.

But if the Special Act gets scrapped,

Participatory National's Party's
identity will be compromised.

I merely raised my voice
to be heard by the president-elect.

Of course.

Your loyalty's commendable.

I see. Understood.

Here's the thing.

Peace and Liberty Party
may support the Special Act.

If our party holds firm,

the Special Act will pass.

You sure love jjamppong, don't you?

I mean,
you don't even go to regular BBQ spots.

You know why?

I've avoided BBQ joints
ever since the fire.

Sorry, sorry. My bad.

Jjamppong's my comfort food.

No need to watch anyone, just eat freely.

You always bring that up.

By the way,

what about the sauce Cha Su Yeon
was supposed to provide?

No news at all.

But no news is good news, right?

You have to know

how to wait quietly for a big catch, right?

That's true.

Did you hear about the new program launch?

Looks like they're planning to push it
as the news department's flagship program.

I saw the budget.

Man, it's astronomical.

So about that...

What?

Spit it out.

You are also on the list of candidates
for the host position, Reporter Son.

Of course, there are external recruits

and FAs from other networks,
so the competition is fierce.

But I'm betting on you, Reporter Son.

If you land a show, don't forget me.

We've built our teamwork all this time.

The old hand is the best, after all.

Why?

Aren't you satisfied with the News Magazine
team leader position?

The News Magazine isn't my show.

It's your show.

And no one could fill your shoes
even if they tried, Reporter Son.

So,

if you go, we go together.

Why me?

Your social skills can handle anyone,

even outsiders or FAs

from other networks, right?

I've got loyalty, you know.

Don't say things you don't mean.

You hit a home run with
Cha Su Yeon's wiretap.

Let's go for back-to-back homers
with the president-elect's scandal.

Then it's game over.

No one they bring in can beat you,
Reporter Son.

I'm already counting my chickens,
and I'm full.

Seriously.

I'm not counting my chickens.

The universe's energy is flowing
straight toward you, Reporter Son.

And my gut's never wrong.

Oh, dear.

What's going on with Secretary Shin again?

SHIN HAE RIN

Hello?

I was just about to call you.

I heard you quit.

What happened?

I was a bit off back then,

didn't even answer your calls.

You know about the presidential candidate's
asset declaration, right?

Who doesn't know about that?

Why?

Got a tip about election law violations?

If registered precious metals were stolen,
that's a crime, right?

It is a crime.

A simple theft case, a one-line brief.

Why?

What if undeclared valuables were stolen?

That one you can blow up a bit.

What if undeclared valuables were stolen,

and they use that to blackmail the winner

in collusion with the thief?

Wow.

Just hearing that wording gives me chills.

Are you sure about this?

Check Haseong Police Station for Seon
Woo Young, who's in custody for theft.

Haseong Station. Seon Woo Young.

How solid is this?

I need something tangible to dig properly!

Kang Seon Ho's the lawyer
representing Seon Woo Young.

Cha Su Yeon's divorce lawyer?

What?

Is Cha Su Yeon covering for Seon Woo Young?

No.

The real target is Lee Hwa Jin, the stylist,
using Seon Woo Young as a cushion.

She's close with Seon Woo Young.

Okay, wait. Let me organize this.

I've given you everything.

Like Chief Cheon said,
the universe's energy is flowing my way.

Seeing a ticket for the new program
land perfectly in my hands.

MBS REPORTER KIM YOON JI

Yes, senior.

Check if Seon Woo Young was arrested
at Haseong Police Station for theft,

and collect every single detail
from A to Z without missing a word.

I'll be right there. Hey!

Take me to MBS, please.

That kind of pledge has no legal standing.

'You release Seon Woo Young,

Lee Hwa Jin gets to do
what you ask in return.'

It's not some wish-granting thing.

Just make sure she believes it.

That's what matters.

I'll keep my promise anyway.

So you're telling me
to deceive Lee Hwa Jin?

The method might involve deception,

but the result remains the same.

Seon Woo Young goes free,

and the divorce lawsuit gets withdrawn.

To get Seon Woo Young released,

a single petition will suffice.

So far, you haven't been

listening to me.

Stopping the divorce
proceedings comes first.

Petitions or whatever come after that.

The arrest deadline is approaching.

Before formally requesting
an arrest warrant...

Whether he gets arrested
or serves prison time,

it has nothing to do with me.

Attorney Kang.

Don't forget whose lawyer you are.

Until the divorce lawsuit is withdrawn,

neither petitions nor Seon Woo Young's
release will happen.

Did the president-elect agree
to withdraw the divorce lawsuit?

It's only a matter of time anyway.

Just make sure she can feel reassured.

Understood.

I'll take my leave then.

Oh, since I missed meal time,

so I'll go downstairs and just cook myself
a bowl of ramyeon before I leave.

Will ramyeon be enough?

I'll inform Ms. Seong.
Have a proper meal before leaving.

Yes, Ms. Seong.

Please prepare a meal
for Attorney Kang here.

Bring me more tea.

I'll rest a while longer
since I'm relaxing anyway.

Yes.

Anything else to say?

No.

Then I'll take my leave.

Tell me if you want more.

I was just thinking

I should have another bowl anyway.

My, you must have been starving.

Seeing you eat three whole bowls.

I had a lot

going on today.

I see you don't have family around,
Ms. Seong.

You never leave work
and are always here like this.

I've been working since 16.
So I never had time to start a family.

Well.

You've been with Madam so long,
she must feel like family.

Oh please, family?

That's absurd.

Madam was the first to treat
me as a human being.

SEONG HYUN SOOK

For someone like me who
was called a housemaid,

Madam gave me
the respectable title of housekeeper.

I never knew you were so eloquent,
Ms. Seong.

Oh, my apologies.

I was being silly.

No, no. Not at all.

You can get back to work now.

I'll eat slowly and clean
up before leaving.

No, leave everything after you finish.

I'll go check on Madam first.

I've just made fresh tea anyway.

Yes.

It has no legal effect?

Yes, that's why I stopped by the hospital
before going to Madam's house.

I thought you should know.

So she lied to me.

But there's another way
to get Woo Young released.

Tell me exactly where
and how you stole the necklace.

Why do you need to know?

There's something that can stop Madam.

I'm trying to find it, and once we do,

we can free Woo Young.

Trust me.

I'll definitely get him out.

I stole the necklace
from the dressing room.

Was it in a safe?

No, not a safe.
It was in a display cabinet.

I knew where it was because it's a place
I go in and out all the time.

Oh, that scared me.

The display cabinet doesn't have a lock?

No, it doesn't.

What about a safe? Is there no safe?

Oh, I've seen it. The safe!

In the dressing room.

When I took the necklace from the cabinet,

I saw a button under the shelf.

When I pressed it, the wall opened.

Please enter the password.

But we need to know the password.

Madam's password, including her phone

and most things, is usually 1119.

It's Ji Yoo's birthday.

Password verification failed.
Please try again.

Password verification failed.
Please try again.

After 3 failed attempts,
re-entry is disabled for an hour.

An hour?

That's game over if it's an hour!

Is it 6 digits instead of 4?

Our door lock uses 6 digits too, though.

If I leave out 1 and 9,

it's 0,

0, 0...

All that's left is figuring
out the combination.

Madam's password, including her phone

and most things, is usually 1119.

It's Ji Yoo's birthday.

She said it's Ji Yoo's birthday, right?

Since Ji Yoo's a high school freshman,
she must be 17.

I'm 29, so a 12-year age gap means,

born in 2010.

6 digits?

1011

19.

Unlocked. Door opened.

What is this?

SLUSH FUND LEDGER

What are you doing?

- Why are you...
- Shh.

I just took a proof shot
to post on social media.

Oh, keep this from Madam.

By the way, I sent a friend request.
Follow me back.

No other messages
from Ko A Ram or Park Su A, right?

No.

Nothing like that
since the school discipline incident.

I told you.

If anyone comes looking,
contact me immediately. I'll handle it.

Attorney.

What brings you back upstairs?

Yes, Ms. Seong.

Came to say thanks
for the meal before leaving.

I really ate my fill, thank you.

Then I'll truly be going now.

ATTORNEY KANG SEON HO

FIRST LADY'S RESIDENCE REVEALED

That lawyer guy's really weird.

You must be tired, right?

After a few days off practice,
I think I completely lost my groove.

It's harder when progress isn't moving.

You must be hungry. Go wash up.

Have something quick.

No, just something simple.

A drink's enough.

You said this alone could
pass the Special Act?

You are sure about this, right?

SECRETARY SHIN HAE RIN

Where are you now?

I'll get going.

Just stepped out.

About 10 minutes from here,

there's a used bookstore I frequent.

A used bookstore?

Attorney Kang, are you listening?

I'm wondering

if I can really trust you

like this, Secretary Shin.

What's that supposed to mean?

'This is enough. This will
definitely pass the Special Act.'

Too many people have
exploited our resentment.

If by any chance you take this
and try to get into politics,

make some kind of deal with Peace
and Liberty Party or something...

Don't worry.

Did you forget why I broke
laws and leaked videos?

It was all for the Special Act.

Hand over the evidence to me.

I'm the only one
who can get the Special Act passed.

Secretary Shin said

this alone would be enough

to get the Special Act passed.

Huh?

I didn't want to give it,
but my uncle insisted,

so I'm handing it over,
completely against my will.

And now you're stopping me?
Way to ruin the mood for the giver.

It's fine.

I'll check it first.

Our security protocol...

Proceed.

Wow, intense security.

Won't even let me open my own bag.

All clear.

Would you like to see for yourself?

TAPES OF IRREGULARITIES

SLUSH FUND LEDGER

Looks like it needs explaining.

Secretary Shin said

it's what keeps Peace
and Liberty Party in check.

So you stole my wife's stuff?

Uncle.

What did I tell you?

I said we should hand it
to Secretary Shin, didn't I?

See?

I knew he'd nitpick,
say it's stolen or whatever.

I was ready to go to prison if I had to.

I knew he'd just spout nonsense instead.

You heard that?

Seon Ho hesitated who to give it to.

So I told him to give it to you.

I thought I'd let myself
be fooled one last time.

If you're really going to use it
to pass the Special Act,

drink up and take it.

But if you're just going to

drag things out like before, leave it here

and walk away with some decency.

Why me instead of Secretary Shin?

It's not me.

I intended to give it to Secretary Shin.

Yoon Ki Joo.

Why did you choose me?

You know I'm terrible at choices like this.

So I thought it through.

If it were Tae Hoon,

who would he have picked?

FAIR COMPENSATION AND SUPPORT FOR INDUSTRIAL
ACCIDENT VICTIMS! NO TO ILLEGAL SUCCESSION!

I heard you took the evidence
from Attorney Kang.

Please give it to me.

I will contact Peace
and Liberty Party representatives.

Like my wife, I'll use this
to twist the lawmakers' arms

and force them to vote in favor.

Absolutely.

This isn't the time to worry about methods.

We must pass the Special
Act by any means...

So if I insist on doing it the right way,

you'll expose my weaknesses instead?

I know it's not your way, sir.

But sometimes,
the result has to come first.

Did you just say

'the result'?

Who decides that?

Who has the right to make that call?

That's why I'm saying I'll do it.

Just hand it over and step back, sir.

Pretend you know nothing.

After the Special Act passes,

you can fulfill your role
as President-elect.

So that's how you see me?

Someone who shirks
responsibility onto others.

My husband took pride in H Hotel.

He even took me there
before construction finished.

He was proud that he
built the tallest hotel

from the plain ground.

But the day the hotel was completed,

he not only lost his claim
for industrial accident recognition,

he was investigated by
the police for negligence.

What I've done for
the past 20 years is no different.

I served you from the shadows,

lifting you up to the presidency.

Please let me keep being proud of you.

You'll be President.

Do what a president should do.

This is my duty.

Let me handle this final task.

Secretary Shin, your role is already over.

- Sir.
- I hoped that

your 20 years of devotion

would end with gratitude, not this.

This is my responsibility.

Please give that to me.

I told you not to interfere.

I said not to block the Special Act.

I said that, right?

Sir!

Sir!

Sir!

Sir!

Let me keep being proud of you.

You'll be President.

Do what a president should do.

You've done enough.

So stop here.

If it were Tae Hoon,
who would he have picked?

SPECIAL ACT FOR THE H CHEMICAL FIRE
INVESTIGATION AND BUILDING A SAFE SOCIETY

A one-ton truck has suddenly stopped

on the Haseong Interchange toward Yeouido,

causing severe traffic congestion.

Some sections have been
completely gridlocked,

like a full parking lot.

Police and road maintenance officials

are urging drivers to detour

and check real-time traffic updates.

What's happening?

They say the truck broke down.

The police are towing it,
but it might take a while.

That's unacceptable.

Our security protocols require...

2007

My hand...

Tae Hoon.

My hand.

Call 911. Hurry.

My hand.

My hand!

Someone call an ambulance!

Sir.

LEEHO DELIVERY

I did as you instructed.

Of course.

Confirmed the president-elect's
car is behind.

Only 30 minutes remain until the vote.

Don't worry.

He'll never make it.

But do we really have to go this far?

Our party's opposition
to the Special Act is firm.

Starting to recite poetry now?

Thinking of entering politics next?

My apologies.

Do you know why people

dine with all those knives and forks

hanging around menacingly?

Because if you show up

empty-handed, you'll get eaten alive.

I'm not just good at math.

I know history too.

It's never over till it's over.

How many fell at the very end,
laughing until they lost everything?

Genghis Khan.

Napoleon too.

Can you guarantee I won't end up like them?

So keep your mouth shut

and make sure

everything's locked down

until the very end.

This afternoon at the 22nd
National Assembly plenary session,

the vote on the Do Tae Hoon
Special Act is imminent.

All eyes are on
whether President-elect Hyun Min Cheol's

primary campaign promise will materialize.

NATIONAL ASSEMBLY

What brings you here?

The president-elect has just
reached the National Assembly.

But instead of the usual official car,

he reportedly arrived
on a police motorcycle,

an unusual move that's drawing attention.

Congratulations on your election.

We should've visited you first,
but here you are.

Now, let's make this off the record.

Since you've come all this way,

shouldn't we talk frankly
without cameras around?

Contrary to expectations of meeting
Participatory National's Party members,

the president-elect instead visited
Peace and Liberty Party's meeting room

during final deliberations
on the Special Act.

With mere minutes
remaining before the vote,

the president-elect is expected to personally
persuade Peace and Liberty Party legislators.

If the Special Act still fails,
the political fallout

will rest squarely on his shoulders,

a defining test for the president-elect.

How dare you barge in here?

You're not President yet.

Show some respect.

You hear that, right?

Coming here personally,
getting photographed,

and making breaking news headlines,

'I did all I could.'

'The Special Act failed
because of Peace and Liberty Party.'

If this is just for show,
kill some time and be on your way.

It's less than 10 minutes
until voting anyway.

10 minutes is plenty.

But during these 10 minutes,

you'll listen to me.

- What are you talking about?
- What's this nonsense?

Does that make any sense?

Is that supposed to be a reason?

What are you trying to say?

What is this supposed to be?

First, let me thank Chairman Joo Yeong Rin

for arranging this meeting
with distinguished assembly members.

Who authorized this?

What are you trying to say?

I don't think I need to explain

why the Do Tae Hoon Special Act must pass.

That's because just a few days ago,

at the meeting chaired
by former MP Bae Yeong Seon,

most of you showed the will to pass it.

Instead,

I will talk about the obstacles

that have kept those same members

from casting their 'yes' votes.

You think words are enough?

Don't talk nonsense.

What's your actual point?

Evidence? Show proof!

Show the evidence!

What's this?

- What's that?
- What is that?

What's going on?

SLUSH FUND LEDGER

Is this real?

What's all that?

What are you talking about?

He brought the ledger?

Literally.

Impossible.

Unlocked. Door opened.

This is late Chairman Cha Jin Taek's
legacy to my wife.

Records of Peace and Liberty
Party's slush funds

and tapes of nomination irregularities
by certain members.

Slush funds?

Nomination corruption?

If you want to slander us,
you should leave.

8 minutes remain.

Time you'll spend listening to me.

Chairman Cha's legacy

will be returned to you all.

It belonged to Peace and Liberty Party
from the start.

If these records

have been preventing your votes,

rest assured.

In all my years,
I've never seen such brazen blackmail.

What's this about?

So we must vote yes

exactly as you command?

Wanna make us puppets?

There are no secrets.

No copies.

No recordings.

But,

vote as individuals,

not according to the party line.

Do not share the weight of the vote

you cast today with
the colleague next to you.

That vote is entirely your right

and your responsibility.

Don't shift responsibility onto the party.

Just as the Special Act bears
Do Tae Hoon's name alone,

today,

you should place

each of your own names on this vote.

I'm simply curious.

I want to know

why Tae Hoon had to die like that

on April 2, 2012,

15 years ago.

Why is the truth of that day being covered?

What exactly happened that day?

I will find out. No matter what.

You spoke to Reporter Kim, didn't you?

If you just do the interview,
Woo Young will be released.

No, I didn't do that.

I'm President-elect Hyun Min Cheol's...

Is she really your daughter?

Answer me! Is it true?

What if the test shows Lee Hwa Jin
is not an illegitimate child?

What will you do then?

It's already been two months
and they still haven't caught the killer.

I want to find the person

who killed my mother.
