Min Seo, what is it?

You hit someone? Hit who?

What are you talking about?

Where? Go where?

I don't know.

We must hurry up and go, Mom.

Ye Ji.

It's all right.

Don't worry.

It's okay.

It's all right.

(A few months before the accident)

Min Seo.

Are you sure you don't want a ride?

- Hello. - Good morning.

We just moved here.

- Hi. - Wait.

- Do you go to Cheongnam Girls' Middle School too? - Hi.

This is great.

We were just heading out to drop our daughter off at school.

Would you like a ride?

It's a great way to save time and gas in a country with no oil,

plus the girls can quickly become friends.

Neighbours should help each other out.

Right, but not now.

Or what do you say...

to having dinner together this weekend?

Make time for us with your husband.

Oh, I'm quite good at cooking too.

I see.

I didn't expect someone as famous as you to move in right across the road.

Indeed. We never thought we'd end up in this neighbourhood either.

It's all thanks to Captain Park right here.

I know you film in different neighbourhoods.

You aren't planning to shoot here, are you?

You see, I'm not used to such a disturbance.

I stopped by to drop this off yesterday, but you weren't home.

It's a moving-in gift.

You really don't have to go out of your way from now on.

Not at all.

Too much kindness can feel a bit overwhelming.

Min Seo, get in.

Thank you for the ride.

What the heck? This is insane.

(Galaxy Express)

Wait.

I like that song too.

("Bye Bye Planet")

All right, let's head to school.

What's this?

What is this song?

You listen to stuff like this?

What are you saying? I've always liked this stuff.

Oh, my gosh, what if we get caught?

Don't worry, and just trust me.

I see.

So, your actual name is Lim Jae Hong?

Tacky, isn't it?

At home, my wife always calls me,

"Hong!"

All the time.

Like a pet name.

It is a pet name.

It makes perfect sense now why you share such an intimate bond.

There's a running...

What now? Want me to go grab an opener?

No need. I'm almost done.

Come on and put some muscle into it.

I can do it.

No, you can't.

Yes, I can.

Oh, my.

- See? I told you. - Awesome.

Seriously.

Do you want to take a look at this?

What is this?

Just look at the front pages. The back is not done yet.

You drew all these?

Oh, my.

I thought they were pictures.

I didn't know you were this good.

You're like a total art genius.

It's incredible.

Did you design this?

Hey, I told you not to look at the back.

It's a million times better...

than my dad's ugly dung-coloured car.

Awesome.

You should just start your own car company.

My mom hates me drawing.

My dad tells me to do what I want.

But if my mom were for it,

he would be against it.

They don't give a thing about what I actually want.

They just use me to fight each other.

So honestly, I was glad when they announced the divorce.

They fought every single day,

always screaming and swearing.

When they did,

I'd hide in the car and play loud music.

It helped a bit.

You're lucky your parents are on good terms.

I will...

take you for a drive someday later.

Come on,

we'll blast that loud music you like...

and hit 200 kilometres...

an hour.

Why are you laughing?

I'm being serious.

I get driving lessons from my dad sometimes.

I'm really good at it.

I think moving here was a good idea.

Right?

Right.

(Memories just between us)

(Min Seo)

(Save)

(Matching rings)

What's going on?

No idea.

(Dialling)

Min Seo,

are you okay?

I'm all right.

Min Seo.

Can you come out and talk to me for a second?

Why don't we go for a drive?

A drive?

Like we said the other day,

we'll blast some loud music...

and just drive super fast.

Both my parents are getting back late today.

Ye Ji, are you chickening out?

No, I'm not.

I told you.

My dad taught me how to drive. I'm really good.

As if.

Are you sure you can do it?

Of course.

So where are we going?

What?

Is there anywhere you want to go?

Just...

somewhere secluded.

Oh, right.

Hang on.

Search for somewhere quiet and secluded.

Hey, that's not going to work.

A quiet and secluded place...

in your recent destinations.

Would you like directions?

- See? It works. - What the heck?

Starting route to "a quiet and secluded place."

(The Affair Was Just The Beginning)

(Episode 3: A Quiet And Secluded Place)

I can't believe this.

What on earth happened?

Ye Ji.

What's with my car?

Did you not hear anything?

Dad...

What do I do?

He's too heavy.

No.

This is for my daughter, Ye Ji.

I'm sorry.

Oh, gosh.

Jeez, it's killing me.

I didn't know you had a thing for places like these.

I'm sorry.

It wasn't intentional.

Oh, goodness.

Wait.

Honey.

Honey!

Sweetie.

Honey, it's me.

It's me.

It's me, Hong.

- Lim Jae Hong? - Yes.

You...

What are you doing in that mess?

Shush.

What on earth?

I thought you came after hearing from Ye Ji.

Ye Ji?

What about her?

Hear what from her?

Apparently...

Our daughter...

hit someone.

This brat took my car...

without asking and got into a wreck.

Darn it.

Stay here.

Wait.

- Hello? - Hello, Attorney Cho.

I'm so sorry for calling late at night.

No problem.

- I'm calling because... - Go on.

Because...

Well...

My daughter, Min Seo, has a classmate...

whose parent's acquaintance's daughter...

I mean, son.

I see. That's quite a close connection.

Yes, incredibly close.

Anyway, it seems the son took a car out...

and hit someone.

He was so terrified that he just came straight home,

and I'd like...

to know what happens...

if he turns...

himself in.

How's the victim?

The sentence changes a lot...

depending on whether it's an injury or death...

and how bad the injury is.

Make sure the victim gets medical help first.

Okay.

Then, let me...

assess the situation first...

and get back to you.

Dr. Ahn. Just in case...

- I'm telling you just in case. - Yes?

This is purely hypothetical.

But if Min Seo's friend's parent's acquaintance...

happens to be in a custody battle like you...

Custody?

Yes, they absolutely need legal advice to avoid losing custody.

One wrong move and the court could see them...

as a parent who can't manage their child.

That's really bad for a custody case.

(Ye Ji)

Just quietly listen to what she says.

She may be recording the call.

Hi, Ye Ji.

Min Seo.

I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have...

Because of me...

Oh, his arm must hurt.

No, tell me this isn't true.

- It can't be. No... - Goodness.

- What do we... - I'm sorry.

Babe, it's not too late to take him to the hospital.

- Maybe he's still... - It's too late.

I already checked.

There's no way Ye Ji would do this.

Oh, my goodness.

Darn it.

Wait. Don't tell me you...

Are you out of your mind? What are you trying to do?

What was I supposed to do, then?

Ye Ji was sobbing frantically...

about the crash she caused.

I rushed here in a panic,

and that guy was...

already dead.

But I couldn't possibly...

turn in my own daughter.

Why did you move him here?

What if someone walks by and sees it out here?

Moving him here doesn't just undo this.

This can't be hidden!

I had to do something.

I'm her dad, you know.

Goodness, gracious.

Let's turn her in.

If we hire a skilled lawyer and turn her in,

- then... - Oh, my gosh.

Jeez, that startled me.

Turn her in?

Would that be better?

Sorry.

I need to take this call.

Hello, Mr. Ha. What brings you...

Goodness.

Chairwoman Jeong wants to meet me...

tomorrow?

Yes, I can make time.

(Missed Calls)

False rumours?

(Min Seo's Mother, CEO Kim)

Articles...

Oh, right.

Crazy things do happen after all.

(CEO Kim)

No, I fully understand. Of course.

(The scriptwriter wants you as the next male lead.)

Yes, I know that place.

Yes, I'll see you at lunch tomorrow.

Articles are out saying...

Ryu Ji Su is having an affair with Kang Tae Han.

See? I told you.

It really wasn't me and Ryu Ji Su.

Indeed.

At least, one problem is solved.

Seriously, what do we do about this?

Gosh, my back.

We should look for a lawyer first, right?

Right.

I guess we have to.

Let's go home.

Let's go home...

- Right. - And talk to Ye Ji first.

This will be all over the Internet.

I know.

Once it's out, it stays permanent these days.

It will follow her like a shadow,

no matter what she tries to do.

Exactly. And people never let these things go.

Can Ye Ji even handle this?

She's easily influenced by her surroundings.

She's already so fragile...

I mean,

Ye Ji isn't the type to do something like this on purpose.

It was an accident.

Right.

What if she goes to juvie,

meets the wrong crowd,

and goes completely off the rails?

Maybe it's better...

if we just teach her...

so she never makes a mistake like this again.

Exactly.

At the end of the day, we're her parents.

My gosh.

Darn, that startled me.

(Dr. Joo)

(Power off)

- Honey. - What?

There are no security cameras around here,

and no one lives in this area.

You know this neighbourhood?

What?

It's known as a shanty town.

There's a mountain straight up behind here.

If we quietly bury him there...

No.

No, that's a no.

Do you have...

- a better idea? - Stay there and talk.

If this gets out, it's over for us too...

Keep your distance.

I'm saying...

we're Ye Ji's parents.

We have to protect her.

Honey.

I'm great at shovelling.

You know how much I shovelled back in the army?

Didn't you see the banners when you drove in?

(Public Redevelopment Project)

(Redevelopment Project Confirmed)

My dad went to the crash site,

so I'll ask him when he gets back.

Okay, Ye Ji.

Min Seo.

Don't ever tell your mom...

about us, okay?

(Contacts)

(Dialling)

The number cannot be reached. You'll be directed to voicemail...

(Is something wrong?)

Why didn't you answer my calls? I was worried.

Sorry.

Wait.

Ye Ji.

I think...

we need to delete the dashcam footage.

Where is your mom going?

What?

Well...

The thing is...

Why did you go there?

How did you even know that place?

I don't know.

We just...

followed the navigation history in Mr. Lim's car.

That car's navigation history...

The number cannot...

Why aren't any of them picking up?

I'm sorry, Ye Ji.

Where are you going?

To my parents!

Your mom's obviously going to blow the whole thing.

Was I asking for too much?

I just asked you to trust me...

and stay quiet.

Why couldn't you even do that one thing?

Meanwhile, I had to tell those lies for you.

I never asked you to lie for me.

Hey.

You were the one...

You made all the choices. What was I supposed to do?

I made all the choices?

Yes, you did.

You regret hiding me, don't you?

Go tell your dad everything. Tell him you're innocent.

That I was the one who hit him, not you.

Tell him!

I'll just go to prison.

Isn't that what you want?

My gosh.

I didn't see him.

I swear...

I had no idea he was there.

Let's go.

Let's go right now and tell the truth.

- I didn't see him. - I'll handle it.

- Get in. - He suddenly...

Jeez.

If we can't wipe it, we'll cover it up.

Min Seo, where are you kids going?

- Are you perhaps... - Did you meet my parents?

Well,

I went there, and...

Why don't we talk inside?

Your parents were dealing with enough,

and I didn't want to cause them any more distress,

so I just came back.

Well...

Why don't I...

keep the dashcam footage?

I'm only saying this out of concern for you.

We don't want your parents getting the wrong idea,

so let us...

adults handle this.

It's all right, Ye Ji.

Good.

Good, Ye Ji.

You kids just stop worrying and lay low.

Okay?

Do we...

really have to ditch the car too?

We need an alibi.

We will get it back in a few days, so don't worry.

Okay.

Got it.

You're freaking slow.

Darn.

- What... - Darn it.

(Ye Ji's home)

My gosh.

- Jeez. - I thought you were the master of shovelling in the army.

The weather is still cold,

so the ground hasn't thawed yet.

Step aside.

Min Seo.

There's something...

I don't understand.

Why did Ye Ji hide you in the first place?

I get that you kids are close friends,

but for her to go to such lengths...

Is there some other issue that you're keeping from me?

No, that's not it.

I'm just asking...

in case there's something I can do to help.

I'm sorry for letting you down.

I'm always on your side.

You can tell me anything.

You know that, right?

Everything is going to be fine. Don't worry.

It's going to be okay.

We can't just...

toss him...

in here,

- can we? - What do you think?

- Push him gently. - Be careful.

- He's too heavy. - Wait.

This guy is too heavy!

Wait, babe. Do it gently.

Honey, he's too heavy!

My arms are killing me.

This is nothing like kneading dough.

It's exhausting.

Hurry up before it hardens.

Goodness, I'm truly sorry.

Honey.

We don't have any more cement, do we?

Come on.

Why couldn't you...

You should've spread it out evenly.

This should be enough.

This man is just too big.

We might get punished for this, babe.

Right now,

think only about Ye Ji.

Hong.

We didn't miss anything, right?

That's a shanty town.

There are absolutely...

no security cameras.

Still, shouldn't we at least find out who he is?

What if someone comes looking for him?

What difference...

would it make now?

Babe.

We're past the point of no return.

Hong.

Where's the memory card?

What?

I pulled the entire thing out.

Is it missing?

Oh, maybe...

Ye Ji took it.

Ye Ji...

tampered with the dashcam too?

It's burning well.

What do we do with the phone and wallet?

We'd better burn them, right?

- You're crazy. - What?

The phone will explode.

And don't ever turn the power on.

Our Father in heaven.

Give us our daily bread.

Forgive us our trespasses.

And...

May he...

rest in peace.

Amen.

Amen.

We'd better pay off the mortgage on the villa first.

Why on earth did you!

What were you thinking...

I'm sorry.

Ye Ji.

Don't ever tell anyone...

about what happened today.

You hear me?

Yes.

Good.

Lim Ye Ji.

If you ever do something like this again,

I'll drag you to the police station myself.

Got it?

Yes.

I'm sorry.

I'll never do it again.

Are we going to be okay?

We made sure of everything.

We ditched the car,

and the body...

We took good care...

of that guy too.

And that land belongs to us.

As long as we never sell it...

I'm talking about Ye Ji.

Do you think we failed as parents?

I'm not sure if this is really okay.

It is.

It will be okay.

Right.

- It has to be okay. - Yes.

It's going to be all right.

It has to be okay.

Yes.

It'll be okay. It has to be.

It will be okay, right?

It will be.

It has to be okay.

It...

It would've been better if it were just an affair.

What?

Let's live...

a heck of a life now.

Right, honey.

Let's live one heck of a life.
