Original subtitles

Pororo.

Pororo.

Gook Young, did you take Pororo?

I can't seem to find him.

You sent Pororo away a while ago...

so he could live where the air's fresh.

When?

Why would I send Pororo...

My doctor warned me that...

my memory will slowly fail as the illness gets worse.

I remember now.

I sent him away.

- What statute expires in 13 days? - What?

I'd set an alarm saying a statute expires in 13 days.

Why are you asking me that?

How would I know?

"No, that won't happen."

"This world can't be that cruel."

That's what I said as I ignored my doctor's warning.

I left my engagement ring behind.

Can I come in now?

But as always,

the world never forgot to be cruel...

towards...

Eul and me.

Aren't you glad to see me?

Why are you looking at me like you don't know me?

Who is the real criminal behind the hit-and-run case...

that Choi Hyun Joon covered up?

It's Daehan Jeil Party's representative...

Yoon Seong Ho's daughter,

Yoon Jeong Eun.

I will give up on Ji Tae.

Mother, you should give up, too.

Ji Tae won't ever change his...

It's too late.

There's no evidence or witness.

There's nothing you can do.

Have you sobered up?

Let go.

Let go of my arm, you scumbag.

Lose the engagement ring when we kiss next time.

I'm not kind or strong enough to welcome a woman...

wearing another man's...

engagement ring.

I will get her no matter what it takes.

You just wait and see.

You came earlier than expected,

Ms Yoon.

I haven't eaten yet.

Can you make me ramyeon?

Sure.

So I decided...

to become more cruel...

than this world.

Shall we kiss?

For real?

Compared to the pain I've given her,

I hope I'll have to go through a thousand times more.

Compared to the misery I've put her through,

I hope I'll be 10 thousand times more miserable.

You know, don't you?

You know who Jeong Eun is dating.

I don't.

Ji Tae.

I don't know.

It tastes...

just like the ones I had freshly caught before.

I'm always blessed with such great dishes.

All right.

Let's drink this...

and end things between our two families.

- Mr Yoon. - No matter...

how much I try to control the press,

everyone already knows.

They know that Jeong Eun got stood up...

by her fiance on her engagement day.

I'm tired of telling excuses to everyone I meet.

- I don't know what to say. - Oh, right.

I'm thinking about letting Congressman Baek...

take over the secretary-general position.

You've only been in this field for five years.

Think about it. I can't let a five-year-old take over.

This is between us,

but it didn't make sense from the beginning, anyway.

But you've already made the announcement.

Sadly,

I don't think I can help you out either, Ms Lee.

What do you mean by that?

I'm saying KJ Construction won't be...

in charge of next year's government project.

Who is this girl...

that you chose over my Jeong Eun?

I'm just asking out of curiosity.

Then why is Jeong Eun...

seeing a guy like him?

I'm also just asking out of curiosity.

What are you talking about?

I guess you're not aware of it yet.

Jeong Eun is dating someone else.

She even ran over to him after visiting us a while ago.

Honey.

Do you have evidence?

Who is this?

It's Shin Joon Young. He's a celebrity.

- What's this? - You can have it.

- Is this a present? - No, it's not a present.

I found it on the street.

- It's new. - Exactly.

Whoever had it must've been rich.

Why would anyone throw away a new hat?

I don't like used things. Give it to someone else.

Hey.

It's not used.

Then did you buy it yourself?

- Yes. - For me?

Yes.

So just put it on, will you?

Do you really like me?

Yes.

No.

Do you think I'm crazy?

Look, isn't she...

the girl who asked me out a while ago?

What are you doing here?

I just walked, and I ended up here.

You can just ignore me. I'm sorry.

If you want Joon Young back, you should go to him.

There's no use in coming here.

You're only making Young Ok feel bad.

I know.

I'm just...

not in my right mind right now.

I'm sorry for worrying you.

If you're sorry, you shouldn't be doing this.

If you keep this up, you'll only stress out Young Ok.

- Jeong Sik. - What?

You can go.

Okay.

Are you crying?

No.

I'm so dumbfounded and shocked...

that I can't even cry.

Then why are you like this?

You're not even looking at me when I'm talking to you.

Have you eaten?

- No. - Great job.

I just closed, and we're also out of yukgaejang.

Do you want to come over to my house?

Why was Noh Eul...

in front of your house?

I'm not sure.

Poor kids must have no pride.

Why does she keep coming back...

when you keep rejecting her?

Do I need to explain her to you?

- No. - Let's stop talking about her.

Who is it at this hour?

Could it be Eul?

I'm Mr Yoon's aide.

Is this Shin Joon Young's house?

Mr Yoon wants to meet you.

- I'll be back. - I think...

my dad found about you and me.

Don't go. He's a scary man.

I'll be fine.

I'm not scared. I'll take care of this.

He's not someone you can fight against.

I'll take care of this.

I'll resolve this and return to you.

Leave it to me.

I love you.

It's hard to believe myself,

but I truly love you.

Okay, then.

Don't be too late.

If you take too long,

I'll go over myself.

I could've cooked you a meal. Why did you want ramyeon?

I heard Joon Young cooks ramyeon for someone.

That's why I suddenly craved it.

Joon Young cooks ramyeon for someone?

Yes. For this woman.

A woman?

Is he dating someone?

I think so.

He must be crazy.

Who is it?

She's this really awesome woman.

She's rich, from a good family, sexy and smart.

She's someone who I can't even dream of competing with.

I hope she gets sick after eating that ramyeon.

Hey, stop.

I brought this soju for myself.

Did I just drink that?

Gosh, it really is alcohol.

Then did you think this was water?

Yes.

I'm not supposed to drink.

I'm going to cause trouble again.

Hey.

Yes?

Why don't you and I have a drink?

Go ahead and cause some trouble.

Let's see how bad it can get.

I don't know when...

or how...

my memory will start fading again.

So I'm leaving this video.

My mum is...

Shin Young Ok.

She's an owner of a yukgaejang restaurant.

She's...

a middle school graduate.

She gave birth and raised me as a single mother.

I do not...

have a father.

I never had one.

My father is...

Choi Hyun Joon.

He's a former prosecutor,

and he's currently a congressman.

He doesn't know I exist.

When he was a senior prosecutor,

he fabricated Eul's father's hit-and-run accident.

(Mum)

What's up, Ms Shin? It's pretty late.

If you called because you missed me, I'll run over.

The chair leg broke?

Is there anything else that needs to be fixed?

What about your table?

How's your washing machine?

I hope your drain isn't clogged.

Eul is in your room.

I thought your chair leg broke.

I didn't think you'd come if I told you she was here.

- Mum. - Are you dating someone?

Why would you do that when you're crazy about Eul?

Eul's the one you really like. Why are you dating...

Mum.

Why? Do you not like her...

because she isn't well-off...

and well-educated like the girl you're seeing?

Then you must not like me, either.

Eul's sleeping.

She said she didn't sleep for three days,

so I got her drunk.

She said she causes trouble every time she drinks,

but she just knocked out.

Too bad I didn't get to see her drunk.

Anyway,

something urgent came up at the restaurant.

I'll be back after a while, so take care of Eul.

- Mum. - What if...

she starts causing a scene after she wakes up?

I'm going to the sauna with a few of my friends.

I may sleep over if it gets too late,

so go home whenever you want.

Where am I?

(You can't dream unless you're desperate.)

(It's not the time that matters. It's your effort.)

(The new criminal procedure code)

(Let's not postpone today's work to tomorrow.)

(Let's go. I can do this.)

(If you're a witness of the accident, please call me.)

Did you sleep well?

Where's Joon Young?

Was he here?

I should feed you some hangover soup before you go.

Just wait a little.

Joon Young did everything he can.

- Pardon? - He was a law school student...

who passed his first bar exam.

But he quit it all.

I'm just saying.

He's a man of conscience, unlike his parents.

So don't resent him.

If you keep badmouthing him, you're a bad person, too.

Wash your face.

You have sleep in your eyes.

Was Joon Young really here?

You have a great view.

May I talk to you outside?

What's your purpose?

You threatened me with that USB.

And I'm sure you knew that Jeong Eun...

was to be my future daughter-in-law.

You're playing such an absurd game.

What is it that you want?

A just society.

Stop joking around.

Do I look like I'm joking?

It's not...

that hard for me to destroy someone like you instantly.

Are you threatening me?

Then...

are you saying you'll keep playing this absurd game?

You're the one who started it.

Have you already forgotten...

what you did as a prosecutor...

just to gain fame and prestige?

If your purpose is to ruin my life,

then aim only for me.

Leave my wife and children out of this!

No.

Your family needs to be equally wounded and hurt.

They need to learn that it's a big sin...

to have a person like you as a husband...

and a father.

I'm going to warn you once again.

Destroying a person like you is a piece of cake for me.

Stop your game while you can.

Don't you dare touch anything that belongs to me.

Let me give you some advice in return for your warning.

Don't just warn me. Destroy me.

I plan on spending the rest of my life...

as an obstacle on your road to success.

Go on and knock me down before I knock you down...

and start becoming more of a jerk.

Please wait just a little bit more.

I'll run over to you in a bit, Joon Young.

Give me my phone.

Did you decide to live a reckless life...

after your engagement has been broken off?

No. I've lived a reckless life until now.

But I'm going live properly from now on.

I knew you were childish,

but of all people, you chose this petty celebrity.

He's someone I love.

- What? - He makes me happy.

What's the earliest flight to the United States?

I'm going to send Jeong Eun to the United States today.

- Dad. - Okay. Get the ticket ready.

Leave tonight.

Don't even think about returning before I tell you to.

No, I'm not leaving.

Do as I tell you!

You're not in a state to make a rational judgment.

It's just like how it was 10 years ago.

Come in.

Choi Ji Tae is here.

Tell him to come in.

May I have a word...

with Jeong Eun?

I know...

that I don't have the right to say this.

- Then don't. - Find someone else...

other than Shin Joon Young.

There are great guys who are standing in line for you.

But what if I choose Joon Young over all of them?

I don't even remember liking you thanks to him.

Will you move away?

I have to put on a suicide show saying that...

I'll kill myself if Dad continues to disapprove.

Shin Joon Young...

approached you with a purpose.

- What? - He doesn't like you.

- Ji Tae. - He just wants...

to get back at my father.

(Eul)

(Shin Joon Young)

(Incoming call)

Yes.

Right now?

So who is this girl that's been hitting on Jik?

She's the daughter of that galbi restaurant nearby.

I mean, if things go well with her,

Jik can eat all the galbi he wants.

Also, she's their only daughter.

He may inherit their restaurant.

It's great news for Jik.

Gosh, you're making me tell you more than I should.

I haven't told Jik about who I really am yet.

If he marries me, he won't just get galbi.

I can buy him a cow farm.

I can tell my mum to build him hundreds of...

I understand that's your wish.

But Jik needs to be with a rich girl.

He suffered so much because of his family.

He should at least meet a rich wife.

Exactly.

If he marries me, he can live a rich life.

To be honest,

I'm the daughter of KJ Group.

That's amazing. You're very rich.

Exactly.

I haven't mentioned it because I knew you'd...

If you're KJ Group's daughter, I'm Mansour's daughter.

I knew you wouldn't believe me.

This is my mum, and this is my dad.

I'm sure you saw him on TV.

Do you believe me now?

There's no need to get intimidated.

Just treat me the way you always did.

- Go home. - My gosh.

Rich people are nothing different.

We eat three meals a day,

drink water when we're thirsty and go to the toilet...

Delete Jik's number right now.

From this point on, don't ever contact him again.

What's wrong, Na Ri?

I thought you wanted him to date a rich girl.

Forget that. You can never be with him.

Leave before Jik gets here.

No way.

My gosh. Why?

- I'm not leaving. - You're persistent.

- Leave. - No way.

- I'm not leaving. - I'm telling you to leave.

- Why? - Ha Ru.

Jik.

Na Ri says you and I can never be together.

Jik, you have to end it with her.

Why? Why do you say that?

Exactly.

Who are you to make us do that?

You're not even his real sister.

If I was, you wouldn't be standing here.

End it with her before Eul finds out. Right now!

What's with her?

Who is she to tell us to break up?

Things at home are already complicated enough.

She doesn't have to add to this.

I won't break up with you, so don't worry.

What?

No matter what Na Ri says,

or no matter what my sister says,

I won't break up with you, so don't worry.

Are you sure?

So hush. Stop crying.

You have to hold onto me.

That galbi restaurant girl is nothing compared to me.

- Hey, Jik. - Yes?

You just...

hugged me.

Very tightly, too.

So stop crying.

Seeing you cry makes me worry.

No.

I'm going to cry.

I'm going to cry through the night like this.

Why did Na Ri say that?

Shin Joon Young...

approached you with a purpose.

He doesn't like you. He just wants to...

get back at my father.

I heard something unbelievable from Ji Tae.

But if you say it's not true,

I'll believe you.

So tell me it's not true.

Tell me that Ji Tae is lying.

We didn't meet by chance.

I approached you...

with a purpose.

It was all planned.

I wanted to get back at my father who abandoned me.

Is this the unbelievable story you heard...

from Choi Ji Tae?

You're making things difficult for me.

I said I'd believe you.

I told you to tell me that it's not true!

You should run away.

I might come up with another scheme to fool you...

and keep you around.

You should run away from me, Jeong Eun.

How can you show up there so unexpectedly?

Where's your pride?

What's pride?

Do they sell it at the grocery store?

If you show up at the documentary shooting again,

the president of Joon Young's agency will kill you.

Then should I get plastic surgery?

No one will recognise me.

You're so persistent.

Yes, this is Yoon Jun Woo speaking.

Pardon? Who is this?

Shin Joon Young?

What makes you call me directly like this?

Yes.

I see.

Okay, sure.

- What did he say? - He wants you to come...

- for tonight's shooting. - Don't lie.

You just heard me talking to him.

He's so unpredictable.

Is he joking or what?

Stop frowning.

You can leave if you don't want to do it.

I haven't exactly heard about the shooting.

What exactly are we shooting today?

It's the first item on my bucket list.

I'm going to propose...

to the woman I love in front of the camera.

Are you really not going to get admitted?

It's a very important day for me,

so please cooperate.

If you're going to frown like that, call Producer Yoon.

- Should I call him? - I'm not frowning.

Satisfied?

So...

who's this woman you're going to propose to?

Noh Eul.

Stop frowning, seriously.

Yoon Jeong Eun of KJ Group.

Let me...

go and get a glass of water.

He's so cruel.

How can he ask me...

to film his proposal...

to another woman?

That jerk.

- Hello? - Did you have a good talk with Joon Young?

If you two are finished talking, come back.

Come back and marry Ji Tae.

I no longer love Ji Tae.

Marriage isn't about love.

I'm going to hang up now.

10 years ago,

when you fled after a hit-and-run,

there was a CCTV footage of the entire act.

I was going to destroy it,

but I kept it because I thought it'd come in handy.

You're lying.

You can check for yourself if you'd like.

If that goes public, it won't affect just me.

Congressman Choi will also...

Of course, we'll have to pay for helping you.

But between...

a presidential candidate...

who has a murderer for a daughter...

and a mere senior prosecutor who gave into power,

I wonder who'll shed more blood.

Come back, Jeong Eun.

I'll be waiting.

Didn't you run away?

How far were you planning to go?

If you didn't get caught,

how far would you have gone?

I would've married you.

I wanted to take the one thing...

that my father longs and yearns for.

You're willing to marry someone you don't even love...

just to get revenge on your father?

Feelings can always change.

Just like how you came to me to get back at Ji Tae,

but started to like me instead. You're even hesitant...

even when you found out that you've been deceived.

Stop getting my hopes up and leave.

You really are a player.

You really know how a woman thinks and feels.

Let's do this together.

I think you and I may share...

the same destination.

Let's do it together.

I'll decide if I want to kill you or spare you...

when this is all over.

I'm sorry I'm late. I had people tailing me.

I had to lose them.

Can you really air this?

I don't know.

My producer is weak when it comes to powerful figures.

We can change the producer if you want.

No, I'm fine.

I like her.

Hello, I'm Producer Noh Eul.

We must have a strong tie.

Please make it look great.

Please smudge out my blemishes.

Hyun Woo?

It's you.

It's you, Hyun Woo.

Have you been well?

My goodness. You mean person.

Do you know how desperately I've waited for you?

I've been busy.

But why do you look like this?

Why did you become so handsome? You're just my type.

What kind of a person do I seem like?

You're handsome, cool,

sexy...

I thought I was...

very rational,

reasonable,

fair and good.

That's hard for me to say.

I don't know that much about you.

That's why we should meet more often.

You should invite me over to your house, too.

Ji Tae, this is bad.

I think you have the wrong person.

This is Hyun Woo.

Here's the latest rumour on Joon Young.

Unbelievable.

- Unbelievable. - What?

This is about Joon Young, right?

Yes, definitely.

I can't believe this.

I caught you two.

Will you two continue to be like this at work?

It's not that. This is bad, Gook Young.

Did you get caught writing awful comments?

My goodness. I'm glad you got caught while writing...

What's this?

- Is this about Joon Young? - Yes.

Who wrote this?

This is nonsense.

I'll get these jerks.

Joon Young would never...

You should all...

keep your mouths shut.

And you should...

go and check on Joon Young.

- Did you see this? - I did.

You should call your company's president...

and find out what's going on.

Dad, Joon Young's going to be fine, right?

This is all over the internet.

This is nonsense, so don't mind it.

Also, Young Ok can never find out about this, okay?

If any of you tell Young Ok about this,

I'll make sure I kill...

What?

What is this about?

- Young Ok. - What is it?

Is this about Joon Young?

Joon Young.

I'm sorry.

May I ask you some questions?

Of course.

It must've been hard for a person like you...

to decide to go public with this proposal.

What made you decide...

It's on my bucket list.

I want Ms Yoon to answer.

I wanted to publicly tell people that I have chosen...

Joon Young as my life-long partner, and that...

they should stop swaying or threatening me.

Do you two...

truly love each other?

Of course.

How about you answer that, Joon Young?

Of course I love her.

Since when did you love her?

- What? - Since when did you start loving Ms Yoon?

Tell me the exact date and year.

I don't exactly remember the date.

How can you not remember?

Do you remember...

every single moment you fell in love?

Do you remember the exact date and year?

Of course.

It was on March 15, 2005...

at a playground in my neighbourhood.

Some kids made fun of my brother because he had no mum,

and this is what he said to him.

Hush. Stop crying.

Big boys shouldn't cry.

Jik, kids used to make fun of me...

for not having a dad when I was your age.

But I never cried.

- Why? - Why?

Because that's what they wanted me to do.

I didn't want to give them their way.

I won't cry from now on. Just like you.

That's the spirit, Jik. You're the man.

You're so cool, Jik.

After that day,

my brother never cried no matter what anyone said.

After that day,

I fell in love with him.

How do you love, Joon Young?

I'm not sure if I understand the question.

Didn't you love another woman before Ms Yoon?

Excuse me.

Yes, I did.

Did you even love her?

I don't remember.

- You don't remember? - I don't.

I'm the type that erases past memories...

and starts on a clean slate...

when I start loving someone.

I'm sorry.

We'll take a five minute break.

You're a scary man, Joon Young.

What a great camera.

What's the model?

When everything is over,

should we begin again?

What was your dream?

Pardon?

I wanted to become a prosecutor like my father.

And once I become one, I wanted to visit my father...

and tell him that I grew up well even without him.

I wanted to receive his compliment.

Didn't you resent your father who abandoned you?

I thought you wanted to get revenge.

He doesn't even know that I exist.

That's why I studied so hard...

and passed my first bar exam.

But one day,

I found out about my father's true colours.

My father, whom I respected more than anyone,

was cruel, scary and a cheating fraud,

who'd do anything...

to get his hands on what he wanted.

Why?

What did your father do?

He covered up...

a hit-and-run case with a request from a powerful man.

He destroyed the CCTV footage, appeased the witness,

changed the driver for a false assertion.

He relegated his junior who wanted to reveal the truth.

Are you okay?

I have to go to the bathroom.

- Do you want me to escort you? - No.

I'll go alone.

I'm sure I turned it off. Why is it still recording?

Did you touch this?

From this point on,

don't take your eyes off this monitor.

What are you talking about?

Did you do this?

What are you talking about?

The rumour about Shin Joon Young's drug usage.

Is it your work?

Shin Joon Young did drugs?

Read it again.

Mr A, a renowned actor and singer,

shockingly has been using illegal drugs...

on a regular basis.

According to his friends,

he used illegal drugs in a private room in clubs and...

had hallucination parties with the girls he came with.

This is...

not Joon Young, Young Ok.

Who would begin...

such a rumour...

about our dear Joon Young?

I will go...

and rip this guy into pieces.

Just wait until I catch this jerk.

People already assume this person is Shin Joon Young.

The police and prosecutors will...

soon begin their investigation on this case.

Okay.

Great job.

Was this the only way?

He's still your son.

Your father called.

Thank you.

Prosecutors are people, too.

They can't always live their lives like moral police.

They can sometimes be cowardly, get easily tempted,

and they can also make mistakes.

People are all like that.

Not the prosecutors I know.

Even if they're at a disadvantage...

and get stigmatised as a bad father and husband,

they still try their best to stick to their principles,

justice and conscience.

Is that the petty reason why you wanted...

to get back at your father?

That man who died from the hit-and-run accident...

was my girlfriend's father.

And I interfered...

when she wanted to get the truth out there.

Thinking that he's still my father,

I wanted to protect him.

So I killed...

my girlfriend.

I killed...

her.

(Uncontrollably Fond)
