(Episode 24)

Did you make a decision?

I have a question.

How are you going to help me?

I wanted to get a divorce,

but every single lawyer refused to take my case.

And the next day, I was always beaten up for getting consulted.

It's impossible...

to escape from him.

You can hand me the evidence and leave the country immediately.

Leave the country?

A chairman who is indebted to me owns an island in the Phillippines.

No one from the outside can reach that area.

You can stay there as a refuge.

What about after that?

Once he is convicted,

I will take up...

your case.

What?

I'm Lee Jae Sap who has the highest winning rate.

Once I take up your case, you can divorce him,

make him give up his parental right, and divide up the property too.

You're going to quit...

working as a prosecutor?

Yes.

What is he saying?

What's going on?

Did he become a prosecutor only to resolve this case?

But you'll have to hand me solid evidence.

Something that can turn the case upside down.

There's the weapon.

The weapon? What is it?

A hammer.

How do you know it was used for his crimes?

There's a hammer inside the safe of the CEO's office,

which is not normal.

There's a hammer in his safe?

A hammer...

covered in blood.

When can you hand it over to me?

This evening will be good.

This evening?

It's when...

he'll be somewhere that he can't be reached easily.

He's having a secret meeting with the district attorney.

So the district attorney...

is arriving at 8:30pm?

Yes.

Even considering traffic, he'll still be here by nine.

We should head there early then.

This is a dinner appointment which will determine my fate.

I'm against this.

We can't possibly mobilize tonight.

We're not ready for all the variables.

So we miss out on this opportunity?

Didn't you hear her?

Jang Do Sik's meeting the district attorney tonight.

He's trying to strong-arm this investigation.

What about the safety of our informant?

Ms. Woo's life is in danger as it is.

She's not safe in that house.

Must you see her medical records?

What if we tailed Ms. Woo just in case?

What about the son?

We'll pick him up after his extracurricular classes.

I still think it's too risky.

We're asking the informant for too much.

That's a risk she'll have to take to save her son.

- Mr. Lee! - If you don't have a better plan,

then just follow my lead.

He's here.

Goodness.

I apologize for my tardiness.

Mr. District Attorney,

thank you for agreeing to meet me like this.

Well, we finally meet.

It seems so.

Yun Ki,

you seem to be fitter than when I last saw you.

Do you still play tennis?

Yes, I head to the court at least twice a week.

You're way my junior,

but I could learn a lot from you.

We should sit down and talk some more then.

Sure.

- Please have a seat. - Right.

What brings you by this hour, ma'am?

I had my flower class today.

How are the other ladies doing?

Of course.

The lisianthus were so fresh today...

that I thought I'd bring them over to the CEO's office.

They're beautiful, ma'am.

Could you find me a vase and fill it up with water, please?

Sure. I'll look for one.

Thank you for everything. You should hurry back inside.

Sure. Have a safe trip home, ma'am.

We're tailing her car discreetly.

Don't make any contact with her until she leaves Giwon-dong.

The entire area is Jang Do Sik's territory.

We'll keep you posted.

Where's the son?

Detectives went to pick him up.

Okay.

Yes?

We're from the Segyeong Police Station.

Please come in.

Are you Jang Joo Won?

Here you go.

Oh, right.

After you joined office,

we have had high hopes...

for a transparent application of the justice system.

The joint investigation unit...

of the police and the prosecutors' office...

is what the people are most excited about.

We have had a number of malicious crimes lately.

Segyeong is...

gaining a reputation for murder central.

It's why Mr. Jang has been...

working hard to promote biotechnology instead.

I'll look forward to it then.

Sure.

Still,

I'm a bit disappointed that people are not respecting...

the law that states how we're innocent until proven guilty.

What do you mean by that?

Ever since the bodies were found in Mount Mugwan,

I've been targeted by the people,

instead of the real killer.

What is she doing?

Joo Won!

Hello?

It's me, Yun Pil Woo.

Mr. Yun?

Joo Won is currently asleep.

I shot him with an animal tranquilizer.

(Jang Joo Won)

Why would...

you take my son?

It's your fault for acting out.

The safe in the CEO's office at Baekgeum Construction...

Does Mr. Jang's wife also know the lock combination?

As far as I know,

only Mr. Jang knows the combination.

Why do you ask?

It's nothing.

("Some of the Mount Mugwan Victims Identified")

I looked into it.

Mr. Kang ran into...

Ms. Woo at the CEO's office yesterday.

Have someone tail her.

I had my doubts, but I'm still disappointed.

I truly feel bad.

What?

What do you mean?

The son is gone? Are you sure?

What do you mean he's gone?

His teacher said...

that some detectives took him.

Detectives?

Who else but you would pick up the kid?

We're checking the security footage,

but it seems like someone beat us to it.

Please, don't hurt my boy.

Please.

(Detective Ku Dong Taek)

Turn off your phone...

if you wish to save your son.

(Power Off)

The phone is turned off...

Be at the address I text you in five minutes.

A second late and...

you know what'll happen.

Ms. Woo,

are you all right?

Ms. Woo, please open the window.

Ms. Woo?

Ms. Woo!

Ms. Woo! Stop the car. Ms. Woo!

- Wait! - Ms. Woo!

(Prosecutors' Office)

- Mr. Lee. - Any news?

We checked the cameras. It was of no use.

Each time we caught them,

they covered their faces.

And there's no camera outside the principle's office.

This is insane.

Mr. Ku just called.

Ms. Woo...

suddenly drove off.

What?

What is going on?

The mom drove off and the kid was abducted.

This is insane.

My gosh.

Ms. Woo came to us to save her son's life.

What is happening?

A person's greatest weakness...

and greatest source of courage...

is family.

No way.

Is it the same reason?

Where's Joo Won?

Let's check first.

Joo Won's fast asleep.

Who are you?

Are you the national hero I know?

Are you the weak woman I know?

What is this about?

Are you afraid Babel Biotechnology will suffer?

That you'll go down if my husband does?

It's the opposite.

What?

If I go down,

Father will as well.

"Father"?

I finally get to introduce myself.

I'm Jang Do Sik's hidden son Yun Pil Woo.

No.

I'm Ji Sun Woo.

One's greatest weakness and source of courage is family.

Ms. Woo.

She gave up because her son's in danger.

Hang on.

Who abducted the kid to threaten her?

Did Jang Do Sik catch on?

That makes no sense.

He wouldn't pretend to be an officer to pick up his own son.

- Then... - He is...

a third party.

You are...

my husband's illegitimate son?

Yes.

Who's your mother?

A gold-digger who snagged a rich man,

got herself pregnant,

then used the child...

to try to get the man...

to pay her a fortune?

In the end,

when the man abandoned her,

she took it out on her son, the dreadful woman.

Sir. The boy's so smart.

Don't you think it's because he's the son of a great man?

How is he my son?

Come on, sir.

Don't come to me claiming he's my son.

Or I'll slash all the veins in your body.

Darn it.

My special boy. You're the best.

Look at this.

Lady. Stop coming to the office.

Shall we leave some scars on your face and his?

I won't visit again.

I promise. I won't.

Our boss will marry a politician's daughter.

If you so much as squeak,

you'll end up as fertilizer.

Okay. I won't visit again.

Darn it.

Hey.

You're not even worth the food you eat!

Mom.

Water.

Give me some water.

Last May, Segyeong...

approved the New Town redevelopment project,

leading to a hot bidding war.

As a result,

Baekgeum Construction...

won the right to build Segyeong New Town...

that will house 4,300 families.

Baekgeum's CEO Jang Do Sik...

accepted the offer...

saying that he'll build a safe and habitable new town.

Thanks to the help and interest shown by the people of Segyeong,

we can finally break ground on Segyeong New Town.

Thank you so much.

Both my company and I...

will make it up to you.

Yes. Of course.

I was a special boy.

Only as long as I didn't have a mom.

Not a prostitute's son,

but the son of a special man.

Don't hurt me.

I won't tell anyone.

I'll run and live far away.

You should've done so from the start.

Mom.

Water.

Give me some water.

You're not even worth the food you eat!

It sounds like...

you must be deeply troubled, Mr. Jang.

It's troublesome for me,

but it won't be too great for Segyeong Prosecutors' Office either.

The targeted operation of the Special Investigations Unit...

can be seen as a political intervention, right?

But...

if I step into this,

it could be seen as a political intervention too.

What?

I hope the election goes well.

You should receive some help from the law and the system.

If you feel falsely convicted,

you can talk to Lawyer Kang and resolve the situation.

That darned jerk.

He wants to talk to me again after he sees the election result.

You have to be somewhere tomorrow. You should stop drinking.

What?

What is it?

Mr. Jang.

You have to come here immediately.

(Grandparent and Child Support)

You are in...

for a long fight from now on.

Are you sure you can live through this?

Yes.

If it can save my son,

there's nothing I wouldn't do.

Yes, what happened?

I found Ms. Woo.

Where is she?

You're here.

- You can't come in... - Move!

Yes, go ahead.

How...

How can this happen?

I can't believe this.

I can't believe this.

You...

You...

Don't worry.

I took care of everything.

Once again,

I protected you, Father.

(Welcome 2 Life)

- The culprit? - It's them.

Cut your crap.

The culprit whom we couldn't catch for the last 10 years...

can't be caught this easily.

Look at the mayorship candidate who lost his wife...

while he was in a meeting.

It's a story that people will love.

How do you feel?

I filed a criminal complaint for abusing your authority.

I heard you made a deal privately.

Can you resolve this case within a week?

Yes.

I'll try.
