ALL CHARACTERS, ORGANIZATIONS AND EVENTS ARE FICTITIOUS

Previously on The Penthouse: War in Life…

Where have you been all along?

My real name is Joo Dan-tae.

You were pretty back then too, Soo-ryeon.

It's been a while, Ha Yoon-chul.

Who are you? Why are you doing this to me?

Get me locked up like you did to Dad.

I'm not even your real daughter. Do it.

Should I go drop dead to make you care about me?

You're no longer my daughter.

Right, Seok-kyung. Where is she now?

Eun-byeol's been kidnapped by Ms. Jin.

Eun-byeol, wake up!

I need to tell Soo-ryeon

that Seok-kyung is her biological daughter.

You put up a good fight against me, all your life.

However, I am the winner.

She tried to kill me and Eun-byeol.

She might have been trying to kill her.

I've put Oh Yoon-hee's shares in your name and processed it as a donation.

Congratulations, the center is yours now.

Thank you.

Congratulations, Honey.

INAUGURATION PRESS CONFERENCE DIRECTOR CHEON SEO-JIN

First off, congratulations on your appointment.

Many people are in awe of the performance you gave during the inaugural concert.

What's your secret behind such an unchanging voice?

Even after I retired, I kept my focus only on music.

Today's performance was a dedication to everyone who loves and supports me.

I plan to devote my life to make the Korean vocal music industry the best.

Recently, your daughter was involved in a tragic incident.

Rumors say the perpetrator was someone who was once your rival.

Please comment on the rumor that

she's your former ghost singer who made you retire.

Well, it seems like you're creating a rumor right now.

The perpetrator was just one of my wife's fellow alumni who yearned to be like her.

I understand her twisted love for her child, wanting to send her to SNU.

However, she kidnapped my daughter only because of her inferiority complex.

And I will not forgive her for that.

We must not think that everyone should study at SNU.

Our education system must turn over a new leaf

so that a tragedy like this never happens again.

One second, please.

DIRECTOR CHEON SEO-JIN

I said you didn't have to be here.

This is the day Korea's prima donna finally returns to the stage.

Of course the husband should come.

Come to think of it, you're very lucky.

Thanks to Oh Yoon-hee's death,

the truth of your ghost singer incident is now buried forever.

I feel sorry for that poor woman.

You do know who helped bring up Cheong-a Group's stock prices, right?

I brought in 500 billion won from abroad as an investment for this Center.

And how much of that belonged to Yoon-hee again?

I have a question.

How did her shares suddenly become yours overnight?

It's as if you've been waiting for her to die.

What about you?

Why did Jin Boon-hong hold a press conference full of lies?

Do you think I wouldn't know who was behind her?

I'll never forgive you for using her to hurt my daughter.

You'd better brace yourself.

If you know that, then why do you stay silent?

Because the worse Yoon-hee looks, the more benefit you gain.

Isn't that so?

We're on the same side now.

Now that we split up Cheong-a's shares, we have to help each other.

You don't want our boat to sink, do you?

You lunatic.

Who are you calling a lunatic?

Eun-byeol!

Eun-byeol.

Hello, ma'am. Everything seems fine.

Her memories came back as well.

Thank you.

Thank you for your hard work.

Eun-byeol, are you all right?

I'm so glad that you woke up safely. I've been worried sick about you.

I have great news.

You…

got into SNU.

Ro-na's unethical behavior was finally proven.

So professors decided to accept you.

What's wrong?

Aren't you happy?

Weren't you dying to get in?

There's nothing to worry about.

Forget all of your bad memories…

I keep seeing her eyes.

Whose eyes?

Ms. Oh's eyes, right before she died.

I heard that if your eyes meet those of someone as they die,

you get your soul taken away.

Then I'll soon go crazy,

or die, or become a monster.

What do you mean?

Where did you see Ro-na's mom?

Why did you do that?

Do what?

You killed her. You pushed her over with the car.

Eun-byeol, wake up!

Eun-byeol! Please wake up! Eun-byeol!

Stop it! She's in the car!

Ms. Oh.

Please don't leave me here.

Please help me.

Eun-byeol!

I'm here.

Help me!

Seo-jin, I can't…

Goodbye.

Ms. Oh tried to save me.

She kept waking me up, and didn't give up on me to the end.

How can you kill someone who tried to save my life? How?

No!

What you saw was wrong.

You must have had a nightmare.

I'll ask for some sedatives.

I finally got away

from Ms. Jin, thanks to Ro-na.

Yet I'm betraying her again.

I killed Ms. Oh, who tried to save my life!

I did it for you.

For me?

You killed both Grandpa and Ms. Oh for me?

Do you think life is that easy?

If you gain something, you lose something. How long will you be so immature?

Do you have any idea how I got back here?

I got locked up for the first time and was treated like I was less than a human.

I let those scumbags humiliate me,

yet I survived without dying.

You'll do that too. You can do it!

I can't do it.

I don't think I can.

What if Ms. Oh's eyes haunt me for life?

What if I never forget her?

I'm scared.

I'm scared to death.

Don't be such a wimp!

If you can't deal with it, just report me.

If you want me to get locked up again, then just report me!

Mom. I want to live.

Please get me that medicine.

Remember? The one that erased my memories.

That one. Please get me that.

Then I'll forget everything.

That's the only way I'll live.

I want to go to Seoul National University.

I want to start dating someone,

and I want to live a happy life.

Please, get me that medicine to cut out those memories.

Please get me that medicine.

Please save my life.

Pull yourself together! You need to overcome this yourself.

Everyone lives with a tough history.

You got everything!

You got into Seoul National University, I'm the director of Cheong-a Arts Center.

You're on the high road to success!

Then…

shouldn't you cover up a mistake I made

while trying to do what's best for you?

A mistake?

You're evil!

You're a monster!

-Eun-byeol. -I hate that I'm your daughter!

-Eun-byeol. -What if I become a monster like you?

Don't get near me!

Eun-byeol.

You killed both Grandpa and Ms. Oh!

You're creeping me out!

-Go away! -Eun-byeol!

I need you here now!

Give her some sedatives. She keeps saying weird things.

What's wrong, Ms. Cheon?

Mr. Do.

Do you remember the medicine she had?

-I need you to get me that. -Sorry? That medicine is--

Don't say another word. Just get it right now.

No!

Don't do that.

I can't give her that medicine anymore.

That's crazy. I must have gone insane for a moment.

Calm down.

Eun-byeol will overcome this.

She'll overcome this on her own.

Because she's my daughter.

Mom made those.

It was for your birthday, Ms. Sim.

She knitted those every single night.

She wanted to see you happy.

They're so pretty.

I'll cherish them for a long time.

I have something to show you.

LAST CALL, JOO DAN-TAE, KIM MI-SOOK…

SEOL-A, HYE-IN SWITCHED

GAVE BIRTH TO SEOL-A IN COMATOSE STATE

What's all this?

I have no idea

why my mom made something like this.

I was wondering if you knew what it was.

I have no idea.

I don't even have a clue.

I don't know what she was up to, but she was always busy.

She'd make lots of calls

and she barely got any sleep.

She worked so hard,

but I never saw any nice clothes or expensive jewelry in her drawers.

But she did everything for me.

I'll take her to the hospital.

She hasn't had a drop of water for days.

-I'll put her on an IV or something. -That sounds like a good idea.

Are you all right, Mom?

Of course I am. You should run along with Ro-na.

Seok-hoon. I'm also very scared.

MIRAE OB-GYN

MIRAE OB-GYN

DIRECTOR PARK SANG-MI

You said Joo Dan-tae switched Seol-a and Hye-in.

Which hospital was it?

Why do you ask?

To see if we can find Hye-in's birth mom.

Why would you find her?

She accepted Dan-tae's offer and gave up her child for money.

Maybe she regrets it. Who knows?

I'll look into it quietly.

DIRECTOR PARK SANG-MI

NEVER STOP DIGGING, CEO OH MAN-SHIK RECEIPT: 10 MILLION WON

She was here, wasn't she?

What did she ask you?

I'm the mother of the child.

I'm sure you're aware of the penalties for disclosing personal information.

Tell me everything

you discussed with this woman.

MIRAE OB-GYN

2004 MIRAE OB-GYN RECORD

MOTHER: KIM MI-SOOK INFANT: KIM HYE-IN

Is this all?

Did she say anything else?

She asked if you had twins.

So I told her you only had one girl.

Twins?

MIRAE OB-GYN

How did she know I gave birth to twins?

And why did she suddenly look for Hye-in's birth mom?

This is enough money for me to find the data you have from someone else.

One second, please.

My goodness.

Bring it here.

This is the same information

that we provided for Ms. Oh Yoon-hee.

Ma'am.

CHEONGPYEONG DAM BODILESS MURDER

VICTIM: KIM MI-SOOK

Hye-in's birth mother is dead?

CHEONGPYEONG DAM BODILESS MURDER

NAME: YOO DONG-PIL

Yoo Dong-pil was the perpetrator.

Why did Je-ni's dad kill Hye-in's mom?

What's in this?

Oh, samgyetang with abalone?

And there are two of them?

What's in this?

Wait, this abalone porridge was for Dad.

Who is this for?

Wait, is it that jerk, Min-hyuk?

Are you crazy? How can you even think of him?

Then, where are you taking these expensive health foods?

They're for Ro-na.

She looks half-dead.

Seok-hoon told me that they couldn't even get an IV on her.

What if something bad happens to her?

You're such a considerate girl.

That's my girl.

You don't have to do that.

Bring her home. We'll feed her here.

-Really? -Yes.

-May I do that? -Of course.

-Okay, I'll bring her now. -Okay.

No, don't go!

-Don't get involved with that family. -Dad.

Why would you bring her home? Many people are already looking after her.

Why are you so mean?

You're oddly cold to that family.

I told you not to go, so don't go!

Getting involved with that family will only make a problem. Do as I say.

-Don't bring her home. -Why are you doing this?

She is my friend. And Mom gave me permission.

Don't go!

Do you want your life to be ruined too?

What do you know about her?

Ro-na saved me. I owe her my life.

When Seok-kyung went around calling you a murderer,

I really didn't want to live.

So I wanted to jump off the roof and die.

But Ro-na saved me.

If it hadn't been for her, you wouldn't have a daughter.

Je-ni.

And when kids bullied me,

Ro-na's mom was the only one who was on my side.

But you don't want me around her just because you think I'll ruin my life?

Why have you changed so much?

I'm more disappointed in you now than the fact that you're an ex-convict.

Je-ni. Je-ni!

Why did you scream at her?

Something is going on, right?

Tell me now. Now.

Honey!

-Where are you going now? -To work out.

Stop lying.

I'm your wife of 20 years. You can't fool me.

-Why are you acting so strange? -Just leave me alone.

Dong-pil!

Don't suffer alone and tell me everything.

I've been caught in Joo Dan-tae's big trap.

-What? -I think

Joo Dan-tae killed Oh Yoon-hee.

Yoon-hee has been killed?

But he put the blame on me.

He found out I hid Kim Mi-sook's body in the fountain,

then set up a trap to get me.

I was about to be framed for Yoon-hee's murder,

so I…

threw away her body in the lake.

No, but how…

Honey.

Who knows what Chairman Joo will do to Je-ni?

You know how he deals with his traitors.

He said we're next after Yoon-hee.

And I can't let that happen to Je-ni.

Even if I rot in prison forever, I won't let anything happen to her!

We have to keep her safe, honey.

-I'm going to kill that scum. -No, honey. Don't go.

Just think of Je-ni.

We have to lie low.

You're less of a person than Je-ni.

-You should be ashamed of yourself! -If I can keep my family safe,

I can hold hands with the devil himself, not just Dan-tae!

I'll give him my heart if I must!

No.

I won't side with the devil again.

That's not going to happen.

I, Kang Ma-ri, used to be a big shot in Jincheon.

PARADISE LOST

As I expected, Sim Soo-ryeon had Logan's 10 billion dollars.

Did he love her so much that he'd offer her that much money?

What does she mean to him anyway?

Hey, it's me. What are you up to?

Goodness, that's it. That's enough.

Good. Cheers.

I was really bored.

I'm glad you called, man.

Things at Hera Palace are really odd.

I get really conscious to grab a drink at home.

Because that woman named Oh Yoon-hee died?

Right.

You wouldn't know her.

That woman was Hera Palace's troublemaker.

Since the day she moved in, we never went a day without trouble.

All of the residents hated her.

Right, except for Soo-ryeon.

They seemed really close.

They were unbelievably close.

Soo-ryeon coddled the woman who killed her own daughter.

Soo-ryeon had a daughter before she got married.

But Yoon-hee pushed her from way up there and killed her.

That fountain was completely covered in blood.

Goodness, it was horrifying.

It must have been tough for Soo-ryeon

if so many bad things happened to people around her.

She was born under an unlucky star.

Her mother passed away as soon as she got married,

then her father died of heartache.

Then that solid business, Simwoon Construction, went under.

I don't think she was a good match with Chairman Joo.

Hey.

Are you interested in her?

Is there a man who wouldn't be interested in a beauty like her?

Our parents were very close,

and she was my first love too.

Hey, Traitor Ha, Seo-jin,

Dan-tae, Soo-ryeon, and now you? Gosh, this is just immoral.

On top of that, I thought you were very close to Dan-tae.

I'm very close to Dan-tae too.

We share everything.

You're very cool about it.

Then tell me one dark history that he has.

I promise that I won't tell him you told me.

Look at me.

Kyu-jin knows how to keep his mouth shut.

So you're interested in Soo-ryeon?

Soo-ryeon, I'm sorry.

Please help me.

I have no idea where to begin.

Everything began…

-with a woman named Kim Mi-sook. -Let me ask you this first.

Why did Dong-pil kill Kim Mi-sook?

You knew?

There was no reason or motive for him to kill her.

If he became a murderer, there's only one possibility.

Joo Dan-tae.

You're right. Joo Dan-tae killed her.

Dong-pil simply took the blame and went to prison.

He made a deal with that jerk so our girl could live in a nice house.

But now,

he's about to be framed for Yoon-hee's murder too.

What are you talking about?

Yoon-hee was killed by Dan-tae.

Joo Dan-tae put her body

in the fountain and buried her there.

Then he threatened Dong-pil to take the blame for his murder.

Joo Dan-tae killed Yoon-hee? So it wasn't an accident?

Probably. There is no evidence,

but he has something to do with her death.

But it makes no sense.

Her body was found… We retrieved her body from the water.

Yoo Dong-pil, that idiot

threw her body

into the lake for him.

Dan-tae threatened him. He had no choice.

You're all crazy.

You've all gone insane.

I know my husband deserves to die.

I have no excuses to make.

Please, I beg you. I'm not asking you to save Dong-pil.

What I want…

is to kill Dan-tae with my own two hands.

I'll do whatever you ask me to do.

Please let me help you uncover the truth behind Yoon-hee's death.

I'll help you.

I'm not scared of getting locked up or dying.

I can…

no longer live a cowardly life like this.

If he really threw Yoon-hee's body there, then how am I supposed to trust you?

When he did something so barbaric?

Your husband is an animal.

No…

What do I have to do for you to trust me?

What can I do?

There's one chance I have in this life,

and I'll use it for Yoon-hee.

If I do that, will you trust me?

MARI SAUNA

It has been a while since we met up.

I thought you were closed for good. Are you back?

Well…

I had something important to discuss with you all.

Chairwoman Song.

You promised to do me a favor if I ever ask for your help.

Is that still valid?

Have you ever seen me break a promise? What do you need?

Well…

There was this friend of mine whom I was deeply indebted to.

But she was recently murdered by someone.

Murdered?

Was the culprit caught?

I have a feeling who it might be,

but there's no hard evidence, so there's no way to get him arrested.

Please help me find that murderer.

Are you sure you want to use this time? This doesn't even concern you.

She died an unfair death.

I want to reveal the truth of her death.

That's the only way I could live in peace.

Please help me.

I ask of you, ladies.

I knew you were a good person.

That's the Lady Jincheon I know.

So what do you need? Ask away.

So the accident broke out near Gimpo.

He went around for hours in his car,

but he was never caught on any security cameras.

Does this make any sense?

If it makes no sense, we'll make sense of it.

-Did you say he was in Gimpo? -Yes.

I have a logistics company there, so my influence is pretty significant.

Hey, call everyone in.

I need to find someone.

HAEYEON LOGIS EMERGENCY MEETING

Anyone who finds the scumbag in that photo

will receive a special bonus.

You'll get 100 million won if you find him within 24 hours.

If it takes you 12 hours, 300 million.

If it takes you only one hour,

you'll get 500 million as a bonus.

-Yes, ma'am! -Yes, ma'am!

Isn't the prize money a bit too much?

I can use that much for someone I adore.

Thank you.

I'll never forget what you've done for me.

Don't worry about it.

I'll use every possible means my company can use.

Yes, thank you.

CHEONG-A ARTS CENTER WILL BECOME THE WORLD'S MOST RENOWNED CONCERT HALL

CEO SIM SOO-RYEON

I hear this area is the most valuable in Cheonsu District.

Also, this is a business zone.

If you build a building here with the floor area ratio of 800 percent…

How much will that be?

It'll be at least 500 million per pyeong.

How awesome.

I'm working.

Now that I'm an adult,

I thought I should learn real estate properties.

You know that this is mine now, right?

Don't you have better things to do?

I don't think you can afford to be so arrogant right now.

Dad transferred the title under my name.

Soon,

you'll have to move out of here.

Don't you understand?

Will you only get a grip after I report you to the police?

Do you know how serious it is that you stole someone else's ID and seal?

"Someone else"? I'm just "someone else" to you?

I thought I said you're no longer my daughter.

Go tell your dad this.

If I must file a lawsuit,

I'll do that to take the title back for the penthouse,

and for this company.

You get your mind straight.

You should find out

if your dad really cares about you

before you do anything.

TRANSFERRED FROM: SIM SOO-RYEON TO: JOO DAN-TAE, JOO SEOK-HOON

Joo Dan-tae

and Joo Seok-hoon?

What's going on?

Why is the penthouse under your name and Seok-hoon's name?

Where is my name?

You said Mom's company and the penthouse are all mine.

Did you lie to me?

You stupid brat. All you want is money.

What?

What did you just say?

Were you talking to me?

Why didn't you get better grades with such a good sense of hearing?

I'm tired. We'll talk later.

You need to give me an answer.

You told me to steal her seal and now you're betraying me?

If she reports me for theft, I might get arrested by the police.

Are you that scared of getting arrested?

Why did you tell her you stole the seal? You should've denied it until the end.

Everything is about to fall apart because of an idiot like you!

Mr. Cho, come in!

-Get her to the villa. -Yes, sir.

Let me go!

How can you do this to me?

I did everything as you said. Have you been using me?

You coward.

Do you think I won't do anything?

I won't let you do this to me!

Then what can you do? I'll just…

Stop making a scene,

and go stay in the villa for a while.

If she takes that land back,

that will be the end of you.

Get her out!

Dad.

Dad!

Let me go!

Dad!

Let me go!

I think I'm nearly done with her.

Is it about time I got rid of her?

What else did Na Ae-gyo leave under that brat's name?

CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR APPOINTMENT

How dare you walk in here with your own two legs, you brazen witch?

Well, it's not like I'm banned from here.

I thought you'd be very grateful to me.

She got accepted to Seoul National University thanks to me.

What kind of nonsense is this?

What were you going to do with her after you kidnapped her?

Kidnapped her? Me?

Since when have you been making deals with Dan-tae?

What did he want from you?

Did he tell you to turn her into an idiot?

Or did he tell you to stop her from getting admitted to SNU?

You're the one who put that phone into her pocket, right?

Did you think I wouldn't know?

Do you really think so?

Then go to the police and tell them what you just said.

That Jin Boon-hong was the one who tried to cheat during the test,

not Oh Yoon-hee.

I can tell by your face that you also want to cover up this case.

If the truth comes out, only Eun-byeol will be hurt.

Shut up.

Accept it.

You know I care about Eun-byeol as much as you do.

To be frank,

you weren't there for her when she took the performance test.

You sat around doing nothing,

but she got admitted to SNU after Yoon-hee died as her kidnapper.

What do you want from her?

I love my Eun-byeol unconditionally.

And that's the difference between us.

May I go see her when she wakes up?

Jin Boon-hong.

Jin Boon-hong!

Jin Boon-hong! Don't ever appear before Eun-byeol again.

Do you think I'll let you do that again? Answer me, you psycho.

You're a psycho.

You're a psycho!

She's letting that woman go like that after she abused Eun-byeol?

What does Ms. Jin know about her?

Hey, Ma-ri. Did you find out anything?

I found that jerk.

Right here.

Isn't that him? That's Joo Dan-tae.

He's driving Yoon-hee's car.

Chairwoman Song's logistics company cars go around everywhere in the country.

We looked all over Gimpo, Incheon and Paju to find him.

Joo Dan-tae was in Gimpo that day?

That means

Jin Boon-hong has been working with Joo Dan-tae to make up a lie?

Exactly.

It means Yoon-hee was killed by him, right?

Then what should we do now?

Should we take it to the police now?

We should take action before he destroys more evidence.

No.

It's pointless to have him punished by the law.

I've done it once.

No matter how I try to lock him up,

he comes out again and again.

I only ended up letting him off.

I trusted the useless law and lost too many people I love,

whereas he's still out here brazenly roaming around the world.

What's your plan?

An evil man…

must be fought by evil.

You don't only get tortured on the other side of life.

JOO DAN-TAE, KIM MI-SOOK…

JOO DAN-TAE, YOO DONG-PIL, SIM SOO-RYEON

Yoon-hee put this together?

That day, Yoon-hee said she had something important to tell me.

Then Dan-tae went after her.

So he went after her to stop her from telling you something?

That's the only plausible reason for now.

What was she about to say that made him kill her to shut her up?

Why does he have to take this so far?

No idea.

Everything is tangled up at the moment.

But I'll make sure I untangle

what Yoon-hee couldn't.

To me, Cheon Seo-jin seems just as suspicious as Dan-tae.

But she was a victim.

And the biggest beneficiary.

Yes, you're right.

Cheong-a Group's stock prices hit an all-time high and skyrocketed.

Those cursed scumbags. I shouldn't have gone after just one.

But what's this red circle in the corner?

"Baek Jun-ki"?

CAME TO KOREA WITH LOGAN LEE

Baek Jun-ki, I'll start with you.

I need to find out who you are.

One more time.

I'm seeing Seo-jin here.

She said she'll be here soon.

Please wait over there. I'll bring some tea for you.

VIP DEALER

Ms. Cheon, you're here.

Eun-byeol will be home soon, so get her room ready.

Why are you here in my empty house?

I couldn't reach you, so I had to barge in to meet you.

Is Eun-byeol getting discharged?

I thought she was too ill to get questioned by the police.

-She must be much better now. -She's still in the hospital.

Will you sit around and watch Yoon-hee's reputation get destroyed?

We need Eun-byeol to speak up in order to right the wrongs.

If you're going to go there again, that's enough.

Only Yoon-hee knows the truth,

so ask her in your dreams. Or…

-get out of here now. -Those weren't coincidences.

You becoming Cheong-a Arts Center's director

and Eun-byeol's college admission.

I'm finally certain of this.

What are you suspicious of?

You know my alibi better than anybody else.

I had been with you the whole time after Eun-byeol was kidnapped.

No.

We were briefly apart for ten minutes.

And are you saying

I killed Yoon-hee in those ten minutes?

I don't trust you.

So wake her up now and get her questioned by the police.

Stop bringing my sick daughter into this!

Yoon-hee took out her grudge against me on my daughter.

She's a woman who could kill someone for her kid.

That's why criminal records are important.

Don't you dare say that.

You would also do anything for your daughter's sake.

I'm a victim!

I still get mad whenever I think of what she did to Eun-byeol.

I'm just bitter I couldn't get her locked up in prison myself.

And of course,

I also feel bad about Yoon-hee's untimely death.

If anything, she had a knack for winning you and Logan over.

Let me make this clear.

There's no way for Yoon-hee to come back alive,

but I plan on finding out every little detail of how Yoon-hee died and why.

I'm going to find out who stashed her into that cold lake.

I swear upon my life to find out the truth.

Do whatever you want.

No matter what I say,

you don't trust me, Soo-ryeon.

Is that why she came here?

What does Baek Jun-ki have that she's looking for?

-Did you ask for me, sir? -Yes.

My offer regarding Baek Jun-ki. Have you thought about it?

I'm still thinking.

Have a seat.

I want to make the decision easier for you.

I've figured out a way we can take care of it

without getting blood on our hands.

And what might that be?

Baek Jun-ki, that jerk. He's a total gambling addict.

Before he even turned 20,

he started emptying out his parents' safe just to blow it all on gambling.

That's why I let him play

every now and then even while he was locked up.

His addiction is probably much more serious now.

When he runs out of money, he completely loses it.

If you use that well, it'll be much easier than you think.

DEPOSIT, WITHDRAWAL, TRANSFERS

Insufficient funds.

Bring me some cash. I'm all out.

What?

You can't even do this for me?

You don't care if I talk? Is that it?

You brought me to Korea, so you need to take care of me.

I hate waiting. Make it quick.

Ro-na.

Eun-byeol.

I hear you're going home soon.

They said you've recovered a lot.

I'm so glad.

-What do you want? -I've been waiting for you to wake up.

Let's go to the police.

If it's too hard for you, just fill out a statement.

Just tell them I took you to my home to help you

and that my mom never kidnapped you.

What are you talking about?

You helped me?

I can't believe this.

Since when were we so close?

What's wrong with you?

Don't you remember?

When Ms. Jin hurt you at school,

Seok-hoon and I got you out.

Have you lost your mind?

Or are you making things up because you're desperate?

I saw on the news

that your mom kidnapped me and tried to kill me.

That is absurd.

Why would my mom try to kill you?

Because she was angry that you didn't get into SNU!

Everyone calls your mom "Admissions Murderer".

You, of all people, can't say that.

My mom went there to help you.

That's why she died.

Your mom even killed Seol-a to get you into Cheong-a Arts High.

She would've done anything to get you into SNU.

I beg you, Eun-byeol.

Please tell the truth. Tell the police Ms. Jin took you.

You got into SNU, so it doesn't matter to you!

I'm not here to argue with you about you getting in.

You're being ridiculous.

Are you saying that I'm lying because I want to go to SNU?

Are you that jealous that I got in?

You see, it takes more than talent to get into college.

They choose those who can give more financial support.

They just know.

You witch.

Hey!

Hey, get off of me!

What are you doing?

Hey!

Hey, Ro-na! Stop it right now!

Have you lost your mind?

How could you attack a patient in a hospital?

Leave before I call the cops.

Do you want to disgrace your late mother?

I was a fool.

I should have never helped someone like you.

Then…

my mom would still be alive.

If you keep this up, I'll show you no mercy.

I'll clear my mom's name, and I'll be sure

to get you expelled from SNU.

Whatever I do,

it's all on you from now on.

That girl still hasn't learned her lesson.

My baby, you must have been so scared.

I'm okay.

Thank goodness I came.

Don't worry.

That bullheaded girl is just like her mom.

By the way,

do you really not remember anything?

What do you mean?

Ro-na's mom dragging you away to kill you.

No, I don't remember.

I found out from the news.

Really?

It's better to forget bad memories quickly.

It's getting late. Go to sleep. I came to tuck you in.

Hang in there just a little longer.

I'll erase all your bad memories, my sweet baby.

We'll love each other and get along like we used to.

What took you so long? I told you to hurry.

Where's the money?

I warned you that only I can call.

I had no choice. It was urgent.

Did you blow all the money you got from Logan?

I told you that I bottomed out today. I was off to a good start.

But unfortunately, I lost it all in the end.

This is the last time.

Do I look like someone who runs errands like this?

What if someone sees me?

Didn't you decide to join hands with me, knowing I was like this?

You said you'd let me gamble as much as I want for the rest of my life.

I even fooled Logan and came to Korea. You shouldn't make me worry about money.

I betrayed that rich boy and joined hands with you.

Must you make me regret my decision?

SOO-RYEON

Answer it. She searched your room.

-I think she's suspicious of you. -Darn it.

Hi, it's me.

What's up?

I'm sorry for calling so late. It's urgent.

Please go to the police station now.

The police station? Why?

They need your statement regarding Logan's death.

A witness statement?

But isn't the case closed already?

They found a new piece of evidence.

Inside the car, they found remnants of a bag that wasn't Logan's,

and it contained something suspicious.

They say the killer may have been someone else, not Dan-tae.

There's another killer?

I don't know the details.

You should go to the police station first.

Sure, no problem. I'll call you when I'm back.

Darn it!

What happened?

Did you deceive me?

I bet this was your plan from the get-go.

What did she say?

I'm about to be accused of the murder.

What was in the bag?

-Did you put in explosives or something? -Don't be absurd.

You must have seen what was inside the bag.

Did you plot to kill Logan without telling me?

What the heck are you saying?

Then why are you all anxious?

Dan-tae is the killer.

Which means, the police will find nothing even if they investigate you.

If you're planning to stab me in the back,

I'll tell Soo-ryeon everything.

That you knew Logan would die that day.

Idiot.

Do you think she'll leave you alone?

We showed our cards already.

Behave yourself or you'll be sent back to the mental hospital.

Tell the cops only what you need to.

If you let anything slip,

you and I both die.

Follow me.

You'd better not mess up.

When you were Na Ae-gyo, I thought you were very cool.

What do you mean?

Honestly, I almost fell for you.

You were confident and sure of yourself. And you spoke your mind.

But that wasn't me.

I was just pretending to be Na Ae-gyo.

From now on,

you should live like that. Just like Na Ae-gyo.

Don't be stuck in the penthouse, trying to be a good mom.

I'm still full of questions,

but one thing is sure.

I know whom I must kill.

Can I really do this?

Yoon-hee.

Help me.

I miss you, Yoon-hee.

Yoon-hee…

Yoon-hee!

Yoon-hee!

Yoon-hee!

Yoon-hee!

6 MONTHS LATER

Come and eat!

Yes, I'm coming.

Why is it just you? Come and eat!

Yes! I'm here.

Hey, what's your schedule for the day?

Class finishes at six. Then I have my lesson.

And you, Ro-na?

I'm applying for an audition.

Another one?

What's the point? Your resume will get screened out again.

They call you a murderer's daughter and won't even give you a chance.

Ms. Cheon and the media are out to tear you down.

-How will you ever pass an audition? -Still, I must keep trying.

Gosh, this makes me so angry.

Why put up with this? Just quit singing.

You're smart. It'd be faster for you to get into med school.

Why should she quit?

You need to learn from her. Try your best like her to make it in life.

-Eat up, Ro-na. -Must you compare us over breakfast?

I'm sick of this.

You act like you might change, but you never do.

It's good to be consistent.

Eat up quickly. I have to head out soon.

Why are you so busy these days? You've been coming home late.

Do you have a boyfriend?

Boyfriend, my foot. I'm sick of men.

I got a job.

A job?

All right, let's go.

Honey.

Don't talk to me until you sign the divorce papers.

-Je-ni! -Honey.

Hello.

-I booked the VIP room. -Yes, that's right.

Ma-ri?

Why do you care so much about your looks these days?

Are you separated from your husband because you have another man?

Did you just hear that mad dog bark?

"Mad dog"?

My husband says that

Mr. Yoo is acting like a pitiful bachelor these days.

Gosh, you're neither divorced nor amicably separated.

Why are you mooching off Ro-na when you have your own place?

I'm not mooching off anyone.

I just go over to cook for her because she lives alone.

You should cook for Mr. Yoo too, since you live just across the hall.

He's the CEO of Cheong-a Construction.

Don't you feel sorry for him?

If you feel that bad for him, you can live with him.

What?

The CEO of Cheong-a Construction or whatever.

You can take him in.

My gosh.

Did she really fall out of love with him?

But she loved him so much. I wonder what happened.

As for the materials you need for the apartments in Cheonsu District,

please choose us as your supplier.

Please, Mr. Lee!

-Please! -Please!

Gosh, I have no power.

You do! You are the CEO of Cheong-a Investment and Development.

I heard you're the real power behind the throne.

Oh, please.

I'm such a fair person.

I don't care for shortcuts or kickbacks.

Also, I heard your son attends Seoul National University.

Even your son is already on a path to success.

I'm truly envious of you, sir.

Seoul National University? Isn't it easy to get in these days?

By the way, how did you hear about it… Darn it!

-This isn't some rehabilitation treatment! -Get out!

-Mr. Oh. -Yes, sir.

Hand that over.

Hey.

Let's eat. It'll be my treat.

The food there was very good.

Yes.

Hey, Cho. Make me a cup of milk coffee.

What kind of good food have you been eating

that your skin looks so nice and supple?

Come on.

I have so much work to do that I'm losing weight like crazy.

Look.

About Cheonsu District.

We should get a famous private school to move there.

That's why I went through hoops to arrange a meeting with the Minister of Education.

Chairman Joo, back me up.

Even if you build an amazing apartment complex,

it'll be worth nothing without a good school.

I'm already in talks with a boys' and girls' high school to move them.

Already? Then it's game over!

As soon as that's finalized, the housing prices will skyrocket.

We should recruit a private elementary school too.

About Zone 1 of Cheonsu District we're trying to bid for…

Dohae Construction seems interested too.

Dohae Construction, again? They keep getting on my nerves.

Rumor has it that they have a lobbyist working for them.

I've been asking around but can't figure out who this lobbyist is.

Don't mind them.

Dohae is no match for us. It's a new, small company.

They can't dare to compete against Cheong-a Construction.

You see, whenever you speak so confidently,

Kyu-jin feels very uneasy.

What is this feeling?

Jeez.

Look at me.

You two look so lovely together.

You've been winning all kinds of contests,

and everyone calls you SNU's beauty queen.

People call you a born-to-be soprano star who has both talent and beauty.

-You hear it often, right? -I'm flattered.

I still need to learn and work hard.

My goal is to never disgrace my mother's reputation.

Cheong-a Arts Center, the biggest in size in Asia,

is holding an audition to find its first resident musician.

That's correct.

We will host three solo concerts per year

at least for our resident musician

and provide various resources and any support needed for the musician

to shine on the international stage.

We started accepting applications today.

I'll do my best to make it the fairest audition

where only talent matters.

-I'm here to submit my application. -Sure.

You're applying for this when you didn't even get into college?

There are no educational requirements.

A vocal musician is ought to sing with the most beautiful voice.

What if she got to where she is now by harming others?

I'd call that a voice of an evil being.

You, of all people, shouldn't be saying that.

I still have a scar from the time when you hit my shoulder

with the trophy.

It'd be much faster to just give up.

You still can't accept that you lost.

I can still show people who the real number one is.

Try and stop me all you want. I'll never give up, no matter what.

I will beat Eun-byeol and become number one

so I can prove to the world

that my skills and talents aren't fake.

APPLICATION, BAE RO-NA

Let's drink.

-Here. -Cheers!

-Cheers. -Nice!

Mr. Minister.

To move up Cheonsu District's housing prices higher than those of Gangnam's,

we really need those prestigious schools in Gangnam.

We'll donate a lot at the most prime location in Zone 1

that measures 10,000 pyeong.

For free!

My gosh, 10,000 pyeong for free!

Sir, I heard your child is old enough to get married now.

My kid's in eighth grade now.

I see. That's what I mean.

Your kid will become a 12th grader and get married soon.

That's why we made the necessary arrangements

for you to get a nice, spacious apartment

in Cheonsu District in advance.

Once the bidding war starts, you'll have to compete with 3,000 people.

The most wanted unit!

I see you've done a lot of research.

You didn't have to prepare all of that.

All right, let's drink!

-Let's drink! -Let's drink!

All right. Here's to our success!

-To our success! -To our success!

Cheers.

Hey, come on.

Sir, let's have another drink.

Come right now.

I can't. I'm at a meeting.

They don't need you there, but…

you need to be here.

Are you watching me?

Where are you now?

I'm sorry I'm a little late.

Hello.

I'm honored to meet you in person.

How is it?

Couldn't get any worse.

The skin can't seem to regenerate at all.

Chances of survival?

Less than ten percent.

What have you done in the past six months? We don't have time. Hurry up.

I am doing my very best.

No one wants to save him more than I do!

What is your relationship to this person?

Why is he here?

It's been six months.

Will you keep hiding and giving orders?

Show yourself.

Tell me.

Who are you?

You can meet me

when the patient wakes up.

So bring him back no matter what,

Ha Yoon-chul.

7 MONTHS AGO

I need to use the bathroom.

-I'll wait in the car park. -Okay.

What is this?

Joo Dan-tae got out of jail today.

He's after Logan.

Secretary Cho bought home-made explosives, so today must be their D-Day.

So will these bones serve as evidence that Logan died?

Leave this in the car when you get out. I'll give you a signal.

Be careful.

Keep your word that I won't have to worry about money for the rest of my life.

May I go out for a smoke?

I must be nervous.

Sure, go ahead.

RICE SNACK 2,000 WON

Get Logan no matter what. We must keep him alive.

Everyone will think Logan is dead. Tell your boss

that the promise must be kept.

MR. DO

Logan?

Save Logan no matter what.

He doesn't have to fully recover.

I just need him alive. This is why

I got you out of jail.

-You must do better than me. -The audition? I'll win anyway.

-Just accept me as your dad. -Let's break up. I can't do this anymore.

I'm not a dumbhead like you, so I'm not scared of Joo Dan-tae.

-What can I use as collateral? -The penthouse.

You must know how my mom died. What really happened that night?

There is something I must tell you. I'll save you no matter what.

Dohae Construction's lobbyist. That's me.

I can just kill Joo Dan-tae and take off.

You don't deserve to live.

I'll make sure you can't do anything anymore.
