Take pictures!

Don't say anything!

In Ae, don't talk!

Let the whole world know.

Make sure she'll never be able to live with her head held up high in this country again.

No!

This marriage...

I was tortured about it.

If you weren't pregnant,

I might've changed my mind.

Because of Seo In Ae?

You're disappointed and angry seeing the report about Seo In Ae and your brother.

She's the leading criminal against the government who got caught having an illicit affair.

I think Daeryuk belongs to a top official at the National Intelligence Service.

These bastards...

are the ones who violated In Ae.

In Ae.

In Ae.

In Ae, it's me.

In Ae.

In Ae.

Who are you?

In Ae.

Kwang Hoon Oppa.

You came.

You came to help me.

Oppa.

Tell these people to stop giving me injections.

Injections?

What injections?

Don't misunderstand.

Every time she regains consciousness,

she tries to injure herself.

We had no choice.

Don't say anything to Kwang Chul. He didn't do anything. It's my fault.

Sarah, come to your senses.

What did those guys do to make you like this?

Oppa.

I'm finished.

There's nothing...

I can do with my own strength anymore.

Listen to me even if it's hard.

The physical body isn't everything.

Your soul...

Your pure and clean soul...

cannot be trampled by anyone.

You must endure.

Endure?

For what?

What's next?

Is it resurrection?

With a clean body?

In Ae.

In Ae!

Release Seo In Ae!

Release, release!

It's the priest. Father!

How is she doing?

Are the rumors about Seo In Ae refusing food true?

Please speak.

The political-protest students are being killed and tortured by evil lawmakers.

The oppression of human rights that is similar to the Nazis and Japanese era

has appeared like a ghost in Korea.

It's killing innocent people!

Order is maintained using violence.

- It is inhumane! - Stop him!

And lacking humanity!

Stop him!

Father!

She pulls out her IV when she regains consciousness.

She's decided to die.

She'll die if she's left this way.

What can we do when the authorities want it?

She'll survive if she feels injustice.

She's not the only one to feel injustice in this country.

The person who ran over...

and the person who was at the scene...

...are both powerless.

The reason I left was because...

I was afraid this would be the result.

Let's make one thing clear.

I don't believe the news report about...

you and Seo In Ae.

I will protect her more closely.

Answer Chairman Son's phone call.

I heard the priest was taken by the authorities.

Oppa.

Yeah. I'm back.

Don't tell our parents yet.

They already know.

What?

Wherever you go, Mother has you in the palm of her hand.

Indeed.

Has it started already?

Yes, yes.

Here he is. Hold on.

It's the Chairman.

Chairman, it's me.

Yes.

I confirmed she's alive. Thank you.

Yes.

Yes, it's hard.

I hate this country.

I can't stand it.

I don't see any hope.

Alright.

I will, Chairman.

Your lips don't always speak the truth, Father.

You change your words.

What have you done to Seo In Ae?

She's not a person anymore.

She's lost the will to live.

Did she confess to overthrow this regime?

What have you done?

Do you think we'll treat a priest differently?

Do you want to be tortured for an hour?

You'll become a modern Judas.

We showed you mercy because of the Cardinal,

but you betray us by leading the anti-government movement?

Do you want to take your place in Heaven early?

This dirty world.

This messed up world.

What kind of world would arrest the priest?

Mom, stop drinking and go inside.

All hope is gone.

All lights have gone out.

Goodness, In Ae.

Goodness, In Ae.

Kwang Chul.

Kwang Chul.

Is our In Ae alive?

She's alive.

I heard they took the priest.

I'm going to gather In Ae's books.

Goodness, In Ae.

Goodness, In Ae.

Stop listening. Do you like it that much?

I like it.

I really like it.

What do you like about it?

Listen to the lyrics.

What I believe...

is that you'll return to me.

Isn't it nice?

What then?

All my unhappiness flies away into the sky.

And then?

You become grateful for everything.

And?

You gain strength and hope rises up.

You can't understand or feel anything because you're an idiot.

You have to eat to live, Seo In Ae.

Survive if you feel it's unfair.

I'll be responsible if you die here.

There's a letter under the tray.

It was difficult to do this.

Read it even if you don't eat.

In Ae...

In Ae...

I pray that this letter...

...reaches you.

The biggest idiot in the world...

is writing you a letter.

I was picking out books to send you.

I saw the old cassette tape...

you used to listen to...

...and pushed play.

I heard the lyrics of the song you liked.

I'll wait for you.

I wish for God's blessings.

If you can still see the sun,

I wish for God's blessings.

If you get on bended knee for Him,

I'll wait for you.

Until you come back to me.

On bended knee,

we're all waiting...

...for your return.

Listen to the music the idiot sends you with your heart.

Please...

regain your strength, In Ae.

You're our light.

If the light goes out,

the world becomes dark and hellish.

We can't exist without you.

You said before...

you believe in a love that's stronger than death.

I believe in that love, too.

Endure, In Ae.

Endure to the end.

Isn't that Seo In Ae?

Are you drawing her?

It resembles her.

I guess the rumors that you're trying to get her released

...are true.

It's not.

It's not?

Why?

When you see Seo In Ae,

do you remember...

the old romance you had forgotten?

It's not that. It's just a drawing.

You should stop overstepping your boundaries.

The Prime Minister of a nation...

is sitting drawing a picture of a girl...

How can I be still?

That's enough.

Did you tell Se Kyung...

to meet Park Young Tae and plead for her release?

Who said that?

Was it Park Young Tae again?

Don't you have any pride?

I feel like Park Young Tae is even looking into our bedroom.

That man has always helped us. He's never given us trouble.

General Chun is in the US with the Kingmaker as his representative.

He's meeting important figures there.

Did you know that?

Did Park Young Tae tell you that, too?

You and Park Young Tae are addicted to power.

You're addicted and will stop at nothing. Only death will stop the addiction.

How did you both get this way?

You may say that...

but what about you who desires to stand in the center of power?

Don't you think I know you're calculating even if you pretend not to?

You're the one who's seriously addicted to power.

Both parties and the entire nation...

you're dreaming of their support.

Don't avoid me.

Your dark, hidden ambition for power.

I know and can see it all.

I brought you fruit for nothing.

The son arrives right on time to defy his mother and shows his pathetic face.

Is the work Grandfather left to you in England child's play?

What did you hear that caused you to rush over like this?

What did you tell your oppa?

I left...

on the condition that you leave Seo In Ae alone.

Seo In Ae went to jail after having an illicit affair.

Is that my fault?

It wasn't your plot?

You bastard!

Mother!

As a woman,

she's finished, you idiot.

What you think of as the end...

is just the beginning for me.

That...

That idiot.

Tae Kyung...

has the right to choose the person he loves.

Father and son are exactly alike.

Be satisfied with what you did to me.

Don't be cruel to your son.

What was that?

Don't throw Seo In Ae in a pit of fire because of Tae Kyung.

She's already in a pit of fire.

What...

What do you mean?

Your face...

Your expression...

What I saw...

when you were young...

You haven't changed.

The same look of the man who screamed as though he'd gone mad because of a lost love!

What...

...have you done?

Is that why you ordered a family visitation with the court?

Do you want to fall into the pit of fire as well?

How did you know that?

Was it Park Young Tae?

Hello.

Big Bear is a dragon breathing fire.

You have the wrong number.

You've come a long way.

To dare...

...to call me out directly.

Do you have someone trustworthy to get this money to you?

The briefcase must be pretty heavy.

As heavy as the documents you've brought, Director Park.

I suppose you speak fearlessly because of your youth.

You're different than Chairman Son.

I have to make sure this money is delivered properly.

It would be best if the Minister of Construction didn't know about this transaction.

Really?

Slot machines are a business that lays golden eggs.

I have a condition.

Is it Seo In Ae?

That situation is impossible even if the Prime Minister himself made the request.

I want...

...a family visitation.

If the media finds out, they'll focus on your illicit affair.

It doesn't matter.

Take the money, Director Park.

You said my name twice.

Something might happen the third time you say it.

The Minister of Construction wanted me to give you the map for the new town.

He said to watch out for Chairman Wang.

I know you want to see In Ae.

Chairman Son was worried because

you took so much money with you.

I received an equal payment.

The New Town map?

How do you know if this is real?

Wait 'til Chairman Son finds out. He'll say you're offering your heart while learning business.

In a fight with Park Young Tae,

I must win. No...

I will win.

Park Young Tae is not someone you can defeat easily.

For In Ae's sake.

If it's for In Ae's sake,

I will give up the entire hotel if he wants.

It's In Ae.

Mother did a good job decorating our house before she left.

After the baby is born,

when we're raising the baby in this crib...

Do you think we can be happy, too?

Why am I not confident?

Poor Han Kwang Hoon...

Poor thing.

How did you end up with a woman like me?

You look thirsty.

Yeah.

I'm thirsty, too.

Are you crazy?

If you're a mother,

try to live like one.

Like a mother?

Listen well.

From now on,

no matter what happens in Korea,

I'm going to live...

...as my child's father.

Did Father tell you to do that?

Fine.

I had a pathetic love affair.

The reason I went after you was because I was sick of that pathetic love affair.

The innocent love between you and Seo In Ae...

I wanted to have that, too. I wanted to take it.

I thought everything would be fine after I got it.

But I was wrong.

You and Seo In Ae...

...are both monsters.

It's been a long time...

since my husband held my hand.

Let's try.

There's no other truth...

more important than the fact...

that we have an unborn child between us.

Inmate 4025.

You have a visitor.

Thank you...

...for being alive.

Without you,

none of us exist.

All of us live like that.

Just don't die. Just don't die and live.

You're not alone.

You know that, right?

Kwang Chul.

Speak.

Do you know the location...

...where I disappeared?

Kwang Chul.

I know.

I know.

If you know,

go find my necklace.

In Ae...

Find it.

Did you meet her?

As long as she's alive...

...that's enough.

Good job.

No matter what!

I have to get them!

I have to get those bastards!

What's wrong, Han Kwang Chul?

Did something happen to In Ae that I don't know about?

I have to get them!

Tell me!

What happened? Who are those bastards?

Tell me. I can help you find them!

Tell me. Who are they?

Daeryuk Company...

Can you find out about the Daeryuk Company?

Daeryuk Company?

The Korean Tess, Seo In Ae stands trial.

Courthouse

Lawyer

Case number 1986 file 374.

For going against national security and conspiring with Communists,

and acting as spies, the defendants Seo In Ae and six others

...will be sentenced.

For defiling public opinion and obstructing national security,

increasing Communist influence and rallying anti-government groups

masquerading as chronic student demonstrations

causing a bloody revolution across the nation.

For the crime of plotting to overthrow the nation,

defendants Seo In Ae and Park Byung Chul

are sentenced to ten years in prison.

Kim Byung Soo, Im Sang Chul and Hwang Yoon

are sentenced to seven years.

Until the day when the East Sea's waters and Mt. Baekdu

are dry and worn away,

Be quiet!

God protect and preserve us.

Be quiet!

Long live our nation.

Hibiscus and three thousand ri...

full of splendid mountains and rivers...

Be quiet!

Be quiet or you'll be sent out.

Court clerk!

Get everyone out!

The students sang the national anthem in the courtroom.

Regardless of time or location, if you're a citizen of this country,

respect must be shown when the national anthem is sung.

If anyone reverently sings the national anthem,

it should be obvious to pay respects.

Instead, the students were forced out

and a combined sentence of nearly 100 years was given in an empty courtroom.

How can this country...

Goodness, why was that country bumpkin lawyer released so he could cause trouble again?

The national anthem must be sung at the proper place and time.

Why is the broadcasting company putting such an ignorant lawyer on TV?

Can you just be quiet?

If your child was arrested and tortured to sign false accusations,

and received a sentence of seven to ten years,

would you be happy about it?

I can't believe this.

Are you the Prime Minister who upholds justice in this country?

Why don't you go demonstrate with the students?

My bad.

The national anthem rang throughout the courtroom.

Park Byung Chul, Seo In Ae sentenced to ten years.

The national anthem rang throughout the courtroom. Park Byung Chul, Seo In Ae sentenced to ten years.

The song you listen to in hiding.

The song you're afraid someone will listen to it with you.

You should listen to a song that reminds you of Seo In Ae without my knowledge.

But Seo In Ae...

won't really be in prison for ten years, right?

What will happen in ten years?

She'll be too old to be an actress then.

Focus on your pregnancy.

You want me to focus on my pregnancy listening to "your" song?

You have no conscience.

Seo In Ae, stay strong.

People are rallying for you.

You're headlining the newspapers.

I'm sure you guessed it.

You're pregnant.

Get in touch with the baby's father.

Father Han has to be found innocent.

Right?

Right, Kwang Chul?

Right.

Right.

In the darkness,

someone calls me.

From the roof across from me,

behind the iron bars,

the eyes glare at me in the darkness.

The silence is calling me.

The gargling breath calls me.

It's calling for my blood.

It's calling for...

...my blood.

Pregnant?

What's the big deal about that?

When Seo In Ae was arrested,

she was caught in an illicit affair. Of course, she's pregnant.

That is news for the headlines.

The opposition party and their newspapers are making Seo In Ae into Joan of Arc.

We have to throw cold water on that.

Perhaps...

she might try to commit suicide. Keep careful watch over her.

Seo In Ae's pregnancy confirmed in prison. End of modern Joan of Arc's illicit affair.

No.

No!

No!

No!

What is it?

It looks like Seo In Ae's pregnancy has brought you to your senses.

She was having an illicit affair while demonstrating against the government.

She caused big trouble.

Mother.

Fine.

The whole world knows who the father of In Ae's child is, right?

This was exposed, so you two can now come to your senses.

You two idiots come to your senses.

Live your life anew.

Are you the child's father?

How long has the relationship been going on?

Say something.

Seo In Ae's pregnancy confirmed in prison.

Aren't you going to eat anything?

Seo In Ae always lived as an invisible presence in our house.

Now, you won't even eat?

How selfish can you be?

Did you think Seo In Ae would love you her whole life?

If the newspapers are correct, isn't Seo In Ae your sister-in-law now?

She's not a stranger forever.

Get out.

Fine, I'll get out. I'll stop eating like you.

Let's see how long this lasts.

Let's starve until all three of our family members become corpses.

Father keeps calling.

Hello.

I'll get straight to the point.

Meet with Dr. Richard who wrote the Korean peninsula policy.

Policymaking is delayed due to a difference of opinion.

The mainstream opinion is saying the same.

The awkward opinions of amateur policymakers on the Korean peninsula

might put us in a difficult situation. Make ourselves clear.

Alright.

And...

I think this will be my final task.

What do you mean final?

I'm being discharged.

What?

I'm going to leave the military.

General.

They're asking me to leave the military and join the government to help the President.

Then...

have you come to a decision?

Yes.

It was a...

...very difficult decision.

Are you having a discharge ceremony? When is it?

You two don't need to come.

You must be careful.

Aside from that, the Kingmaker will go to Washington.

We need to take care of the matter from last time.

Alright.

Is my grandchild...

...growing well?

Yes.

Kwang Hoon.

Forget about...

...Hye Jin's past.

If you keep thinking of the past,

a man's life can't move forward.

I know.

I'll call again.

I think the last part was about me. What did he say?

Did he say a woman is just one piece of the quilt of a man's life?

He's being discharged.

Discharged?

He's leaving the military?

Is he taking his first step as the second in line?

He asked if his grandchild is growing well.

So?

I said yes.

He didn't ask how I was doing?

You're a mother.

Don't make such comparisons.

Are you nervous...

your child is being born of a woman like me?

It's your child, too.

Have you...

...really decided?

Have you...

decided to be discharged?

Have you really decided?

It has tortured me for several months.

But after confessing to Kwang Hoon,

I feel relieved.

You won't regret it?

In the end,

they're forcing you to leave the military.

Hello.

Yes.

There will be a discharge ceremony.

The leader must leave.

But the army must keep advancing.

Don't forget to be impassive. That's all.

Isn't there anyone else who can help the President?

Does it...

...have to be you?

We will love you forever.

In Vietnam...

Why are you so late?

I waited more than an hour.

Some people wait their whole lives. Is an hour too long?

What happened with General Chun?

Discharge.

I think he's decided.

Does it mean the President...

is designating his second in line?

Isn't it going according to plan?

Within the tornado of politics,

the one the President chose...

...is General Chun.

Wait.

There will be a way to stab him in the back.

Who?

I think someone will make a proclamation.

Will that trap General Chun in a corner?

It depends on who plays the first hand.

What about Big Bear?

He'll be quiet for awhile since we fed him the money.

At any rate,

what is the Prime Minister doing?

He doesn't know whether the knife aimed at him is in front or behind him.

What's this?

A birthday present.

Birthday?

Right.

There's only one person in this world who knows my true birthday.

In Ae.

I think I understand...

why the Japanese...

...commit harakiri.

Rather than dying from evil laws impossible to find in a democracy,

rather than receiving a death sentence,

I wish I could commit harakiri...

to make a statement against this era.

It would be an honor.

Your Honor...

if I acknowledge my sentence of ten years,

The first amendment of the constitution should say...

Korea is not a Democratic Republic.

It should be changed to that.

Right! Right!

Court clerk!

Make them be quiet!

If the number of students to be arrested exceeds 200,

the government can't handle it.

What is going on?

Don't you know that kind of hasty action will incite the students even more?

What?

Who said that?

Only strength can handle the students at the academic centers?

Passing academic security laws

will insight the opposition party and students

...to revolt.

Wait and see!

Don't betray the Prime Minister.

You should tell me not to betray the Iron Butterfly.

I didn't divide fate.

Then did fate divide us?

Se Kyung is the problem now.

We should have sent her back to Paris immediately.

Seo In Ae and Han Kwang Chul...

those worthless fools...

are getting in the way of my children.

Both of them are deeply hurt.

They need to see what reality is.

They'll come to their senses soon.

Rush Tae Kyung's work.

I beg you.

Hello.

Chairman.

I know you're very angry.

I'll resign any titles that might have a negative impact on our business.

I'm sorry for causing you trouble, Chairman.

I guess it's true you've caused trouble.

You have to save In Ae.

Tell the truth.

What truth?

How can In Ae be pregnant?

It's true.

What?

It's true she's pregnant.

Is that enough?

Do you expect me to believe what the newspapers say?

That In Ae is pregnant with your child?

Even if the whole world believes it, I don't!

Why not?

What on earth...

...happened to In Ae?

I said it was your last chance to take her back when I send her to the US.

You don't need to know...

...the horrible truth.

You have no right to know.

What about In Ae?

How is In Ae?

Go meet her yourself if you're curious.

And save her.

You can't, right?

You can't do that, can you?

Then I'll protect In Ae!

Live in hiding like you're doing now for the sake of your future advancement.

Like a cockroach.

Don't get involved with In Ae anymore.

Don't even call. Know that.

I...

...am that child's father.

I, Han Kwang Chul,

...am that child's father.

I beg you.

Don't call.

Even if it's hard,

we have to get work done.

We have to hurry up and prepare for meetings with the visiting Olympic officials.

I...

am going to resign...

...from my official position.

My position...

will be yours, so prepare.

That's good news for once.

Even if you quit,

you have to take care of the decisions you've made.

And...

you might want to consider

what repercussions your sudden, emotional decision

...has on others.

Even the lowest employee at this hotel is supposed to work with ownership.

How can the General Manager become irresponsible just because he's cornered?

Isn't it also time you left?

Why?

Why do I have to leave?

Why should I leave because you and Seo In Ae are having a child?

Wow...

Did you believe...

my life was hinged completely on you?

That's a huge misunderstanding.

I didn't come here because I was asked to.

I'll leave when I want.

If you want to give up your position,

hurry up and do it quickly.

Hello, Se Kyung.

He's giving up his position as general manager.

We have so much work to do.

Can you tell him to stop acting like a child?

Se Kyung looks awful.

Don't overdo it.

I'll apologize later.

What happened?

I found out when the prison guards get off work.

Make preparations.

I'm worried about your fiery temper.

An ignorant guy like me...

...has to run in with fire.

Or I'll get trampled in the dark.

I can't take it.

In Ae's ruin was plotted.

I'll find out the truth.

I'll rip them apart one by one.

The Chairman of Tae Kwang Group...

wants to see you.

I bought you a suit just in case.

Leave it in the office.

Go see him with a renewed heart if he calls you.

He's the only person who will have your father's back.

If he supports someone else,

your father won't survive.

So?

Why do you want me to meet Tae Kwang's Chairman?

He's indebted to your grandfather.

He picked you to become part of his family when you were young.

What picture are you painting now?

Get married.

Now...

are you even utilizing forced marriage?

The time has come.

Stop.

I lose.

Come home early tonight.

Mother.

I have a condition.

What is it?

Release...

...Seo In Ae.

What did you say?

You've trampled her enough.

I trampled her?

She got involved in the movement as this generation's Yoo Kwan Soon.

She wrote and distributed the statement.

Be grateful she didn't receive the death penalty.

Wasn't it you who got Seo In Ae pregnant?

Kim Tae Kyung!

I know it doesn't make sense.

But it keeps coming to my mind.

You still haven't come to your senses.

Seo In Ae is pregnant. But why!

Why do I...

feel a sense of responsibility?

You idiot, you still haven't...

Am I wrong, Mother?

Tell me I'm wrong.

You bastard.

Why are you here?

I came to talk to Tae Kyung.

What's going on?

Do you have time for light conversation with your son?

You're standing on the political edge.

There are negative signs everywhere.

Time passes and...

no one can stop water from flowing downward.

You have to stop it. Who else?

If you're out of consideration for the successor,

do you know what will happen?

You'll go to jail.

You're standing atop the jail walls.

It's no use trying to stop it if that's my fate.

You act like you're taking a philosophical view, but you believe that the people support you.

That endless confidence.

Please don't trust in that.

The President has already upheld General Chun's hand.

We have to find a way to survive even if we start a rebellion.

We must receive a guarantee for the future...

and start a justified rebellion.

A revolution!

Is that why you're so busy?

That's right.

But even my son won't cooperate.

What a strange family.

What is your mother talking about?

Is she talking about Chairman Tae?

Yes.

It's for you, Father.

It's for your sake.

Do you want me to meet Chairman Tae's daughter, too?

I know.

No one can match your widespread popularity.

Even the President worries about it.

Political power can't be determined with popularity alone.

Even if it's disgraceful,

we must survive and win.

That's your mother's opinion.

What are your thoughts, Father?

The dream of supreme authority...

can't you let it go?

Wasn't it only...

...Mother's dream?

Dream...

It's not a dream but an ambition.

Ambition?

To a man...

...power is life.

Then...

Your father can't dream of committing political suicide.

We have no other choice...

...if we want to survive.

Are you telling me...

I have no other choice...

...right now?

I see.

You said you wanted to tell me something.

Just a moment.

The emergency funds you spoke about before...

Oh...

What's wrong?

Never mind.

I'll tell you next time.

Alright.

Then...

I'll be going.

Will this convince you?

Are you a friend or foe?

I won't forgive betrayal.

Park Young Tae.

No one can survive in this country and ignore Park Young Tae.

Shoot to kill if necessary.

It's an important affair that can be called treason. Can you maintain secrecy?

Min Hye Rin, I can live at the ends of the earth with you and our children.

I can only trust you now.
