Previously on Return.

She says they were friends since childhood.

All of the troublemakers are gathered here.

You two tried to kill Joon Hee.

Did Joon Hee really lose his memory?

And the case 19 years ago...

Dr. Ko?

(Episode 21)

What are you doing there?

Are you okay?

You told me not to go in alone.

Are you okay?

Whatever.

Drive.

- Are we going to Seoul? - Yes.

No.

- Let's go to Joo Chan Young. - Okay.

(Newsrang)

Gosh. Thank you for the food last time.

My pleasure.

Please tell me more about that article.

- For free? - Come on.

How far did I get?

That the cause of death on record was a car accident, not drowning.

There was a connection.

Between whom and whom?

The detective on the case and the medical examiner.

How are you so sure?

I heard them with my own ears.

For your daughter's medical bills.

I think I'll have favors to ask sometimes from now on.

Please help me out.

But no one believed me.

I even wrote an article on it,

but it was killed by the editors.

Do you remember the detective's name?

Ahn Hak Soo.

Ahn Hak Soo?

Who are you?

Why were you eavesdropping?

- I'm sorry. - Detective!

Don't hit the kid.

He wasn't eavesdropping. Gosh.

Then why did he run away?

Look at the kid first. Seriously.

Get up.

Gosh. Did you eat?

What? Do you know him?

He's my brother. Let's go.

Let's go. Come on.

Darn it. Drink some water too.

Why didn't you eat yet? Gosh.

I went to where the singers are staying...

Stop talking.

- Do you... - Yes?

know the medical examiner's name?

I don't remember the name.

But I remember her being addressed as Dr. Ko.

"Dr. Ko"?

Shot.

I rented out the place so we could talk quietly.

There won't be anyone here...

for the next three hours.

That sounds like a threat.

Not at all.

Why did you call me here?

It's fun.

Give it a shot.

Forget it.

Tell me why you called me here.

I called you, but you are the one who has something to say.

What do I need to say in this situation?

I understand you're angry, but...

the target of your anger...

should not be us.

Are you trying to say it should be Choi Ja Hye?

It's true.

She tried to tie me up to Ahn Hak Soo's murder...

just like she tied you to Mi Jung's murder.

If you don't believe me, check for yourself.

Even if that's true,

it changes nothing.

You turned your back on me when I was framed for murder.

On top of that,

you tried to kill Joon Hee when he tried to come clean.

That's enough.

We're friends.

Don't be so cruel.

Are we even still friends?

I'm trying.

Relationships take effort.

You try...

when there is something to gain.

Fine. May I make an excuse then?

Regarding Mi Jung, the others and I were afraid.

I'm not saying we were right.

It was wrong, and we never imagined it would all fall on you like that.

Hey.

I don't want to listen to you anymore.

You just wait...

and see...

what I decide to do.

In Ho, don't turn your back on me!

Shot.

So?

Did you talk with In Ho?

It won't work.

He's really peeved.

What a punk. He's being such a girl.

We'll have to try to appease him.

This is awesome.

I have to go.

Don't do anything stupid.

Whatever.

I won't kill people like you do, so hang up.

May I assist you?

This car came into our country.

Hey. How much does something like this cost?

There are only four of these in the country,

so the price is...

My apologies,

but we're having a promotion today with our VVIPs.

Don't give me that garbage.

VVIP?

Excuse me, but may I see your invitation?

Kim Hak Bum of Myoungseong Foundation.

My face is my business card,

and my name is the invitation.

You punk.

I'm sorry, but we are not accepting regular customers today.

Please come back another day.

Seriously. What do I do with this jerk?

Search Myoungseong Foundation's Kim Hak Bum online right now.

I'm not the type of person you can talk to so easily.

How will you make a living by doing your job like this?

(Myoungseong Theological University Professor Raped a Minor)

Please leave.

I can't believe this guy.

Hey, look at that.

My goodness. You'll probably have to sell this car to me.

This should cover the down payment.

Throw in a dash cam and get the windows tinted,

and deliver it to me.

Choose the bank with the highest interest...

so you get a sizable commission.

Make it for Kim Hak Bum of Myoungseong Theological University.

Okay? You stupid moron.

Place the flowers in between.

Aren't those flowers just beautiful? Right. Just like this...

Hello, what brings you here?

Did anyone in here graduate from Ilsung Middle School?

How do you know about that school?

I graduated from Ilsung. What is this about?

(Choi Ja Hye)

The only living family member is her mother.

She was born in Seongnam...

and lived near that area until middle school.

But there's something strange about her.

What is it?

She was reported missing when she was in 10th grade.

Choi Ja Hye was reported missing? Really?

When she went missing, the police couldn't find any sign of her.

- Hello? Mr. Kim. - Can you hear me?

I can hear you fine. Can you not hear me?

No, I can hear you. Please continue.

She resurfaced 10 years later.

Really?

So I found an alumna who was closest with Choi Ja Hye...

when they were in middle school.

What did she say about Choi Ja Hye?

She said she ran into Choi Ja Hye by chance,

but she almost didn't recognize her because she changed a lot.

Her friend said Choi Ja Hye felt like someone else.

But you said she was Choi Ja Hye's closest friend.

Let me send you a photo first.

(New Message, Photo)

(Choi Ja Hye)

Who is this?

(Choi Ja Hye)

This is Violent Crimes Unit One of Gangdong Precinct.

- Who? - Who's on the phone?

Weren't you sleeping?

Take the call.

Hello, this is Dokgo Young.

Is this Lieutenant Dokgo Young of Gangdong Precinct?

Yes, this is he. Who is this?

This is Taein Patrol Division.

Do you know Ms. Ko Suk Soon?

Yes.

Is she...

dead?

No, she's not dead,

but she's acting frantic.

She's only asking for you. Dokgo Young of Gangdong Precinct.

What would you like to do?

(Stellarium Villa)

My gosh, I'm about to pass out.

Wait, that car...

(Taein Patrol Division)

Good evening, sir. I'm Lieutenant Dokgo Young of Gangdong Precinct.

Oh, hello. She's over there.

- What happened? - We found her on the road.

In that condition.

Ms. Ko.

Ms. Ko Suk Soon.

What's wrong?

What in the world happened to you?

(Preparation is finished.)

Estimated arrival time is 20 minutes later.

Hey, how is Kim Jung Soo?

I think I might have lost him.

Where did you lose him?

I'm going to put his vehicle on the wanted list.

- Hold that thought for a while. - Why?

I'll call you after I ask Young about it first.

Okay. I'll go to Kim Jung Soo's house...

and wait there.

Do you think you can talk to me now?

What happened to you?

Lieutenant Dokgo Young.

I will...

turn myself in.

What do you mean by that? Turn yourself in?

I did a terrible thing a long time ago.

Something I shouldn't have done as a medical examiner.

It was 19 years ago.

At that time, I wasn't as experienced.

Everyone...

makes such mistakes at least once as they live.

I had completely forgotten about that.

Ms. Ko.

Ms. Ko Suk Soon. Get a hold of yourself.

Sun Hwa.

Please find my daughter, Sun Hwa. Find my daughter, Sun Hwa.

You can't get yourself together.

Calm down, and slowly explain things to me.

Please don't ask me questions.

Just find my daughter, Sun Hwa. Please?

I don't know what's going on here. How could I find your daughter now?

Please calm yourself first.

One at a time.

Tell me what happened from the beginning in detail.

Why did you come to Taein?

To find someone.

Who?

The mother of the girl...

whose autopsy report I manipulated 19 years ago.

If it was 19 years ago,

did you do it in 1999?

[VIU Ver] E21 Return "Please Find My Daughter" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

I couldn't kill you...

because I was once a mother just like you.

But you won't be able to see your daughter...

until I complete my plan.

Please... Please... Please don't hurt my daughter.

Think of it...

as the price you must pay for the sin you had committed.

Go on.

I can't tell you. No, I can't tell you.

I cannot tell you.

Find Detective Dokgo Young.

Tell him everything you did...

19 years ago.

The only thing I can tell you...

is the crime...

I had committed 19 years ago.

Hello?

Stop what you are about to do.

Pardon?

Our plan has already changed.

You cannot do what you're about to do.

We must be cautious, Mr. Kim Jung Soo.

What is this?

Check the number again.

I think we should take Dr. Ko to Seoul and let her rest.

Did you hear anything about Kim Jung Soo?

No, nothing.

I'll take Dr. Ko to the car.

Okay. I'll finish up and come out.

Don't cooperate.

(Taein Patrol Division)

I parked out back.

Please wait here. I'll go get it.

- What happened? - Dr. Ko.

Dr. Ko.

Dr. Ko!

Ambulance. Call an ambulance!

- Ambulance! - Hurry.

Where did you go?

Get over there and...

Get over here.

Why can't you sleep?

I'm not sleepy.

What will make you sleepy?

- Mommy. - Yes?

Do you not sleep in the same room with Daddy anymore?

Why? Do you not like sleeping with me?

That's not it. I like sleeping with you,

but I feel bad for Daddy.

You feel bad for Daddy?

Yes, because...

I feel like you hate Daddy.

You think I hate Daddy?

Yes.

I don't.

Liar.

Sleep.

(Daemyung Hospital)

Hi.

As you can see,

I came empty-handed.

You don't need to bring anything.

Do you feel okay?

Yes, I'm fine.

I'm working hard on rehab too.

At least one good thing came out of this.

You're not on drugs anymore.

I thought you'd want to get some air.

Do you want to go?

So? Do you feel better?

Yes, I do.

Do you really...

not remember anything?

It's so strange.

Why do you and Bum keep asking me that?

We're just worried.

I heard about Mi Jung...

and In Ho too.

I know.

A lot has happened...

to us.

"Us"?

There are things we were involved in...

among the memories that you lost.

We stole...

Mi Jung's body.

Someone tied her body to the three of us,

but you...

said we should frame In Ho.

That's why you left her body...

in the middle of the road.

Come on. That's not funny.

And...

we shouldn't joke about that. It's disrespectful to Mi Jung.

You never disappoint.

Hak Bum would've freaked out and gone crazy.

Why did you do that to me?

What?

When you...

went on a business trip to Europe,

you got gifts only for Bum and In Ho.

I got something for you too.

Six months ago.

You did?

Gosh.

Suk.

We're like brothers, right?

Of course.

We're like brothers.

Get in there. I knew it.

What's your problem?

What's your problem?

What is your plan?

What happened in 1999?

Why are you...

- killing... - Stop it!

- Hey. Hey. - Get out!

- Let go! - Stop it.

- Let go. Let go! - Get out.

Gosh.

- Let go! - Come on.

What's wrong with you?

- I can't stand it! - Get a grip of yourself!

- Control yourself! - Control yourself!

You seem very upset.

Why are you here?

I came to see my client.

Why did you do it?

I'm sorry.

It just happened.

However, the victim lied about her age...

and voluntarily concealed that she was a minor.

It can be considered that she willingly consented...

to the behaviors of the defendants in the studio.

Therefore, the court...

has concluded that her argument of having a feeble mind...

and inability to resist is invalid.

Nonetheless, the defendants did take a minor to their studio...

and committed unethical acts.

Such acts must be condemned.

However, since their acts do not...

qualify as quasirape in the eye of the law,

the defendants will not face any criminal penalties.

Therefore, according to Article 325 of Criminal Law,

we find the defendants not guilty.

You scumbags!

Where is the law?

Shouldn't the law...

- What's going on? - provide justice...

for those who are wronged?

This law is pure garbage!

You scumbags!

Don't come closer!

Don't come closer!

Don't come near me!

Are you that angry?

What? Who are you?

I was an associate judge on Kim Soo Hyun's case.

What are you doing right now?

To whom are you getting angry?

I'll kill you people.

I'll kill you!

That's it.

That's how you should channel your rage.

- What? - Not into the air, but at me...

and the justice department that had to render that judgment.

And more so at those jerks who did that to Soo Hyun!

Darn it!

Do you think people will pay attention...

to whatever you say...

if you set yourself on fire and die?

It will last for a week at most.

Everyone has a tough life.

You are a nobody. Do you think people...

will listen to your whining?

Don't kid yourself.

You don't matter to these people.

No matter how unfair it is,

even if you weep...

because you feel wronged,

and even if...

your whole body breaks into pieces...

while bringing lawsuits until you turn to ashes,

no one is interested in what you say.

No one will listen to us,

who are nobodies in the eyes of these people.

Then what should I do?

I will feel wronged for the rest of my life.

My heart is being shattered,

and it's destroying me because it's not fair.

I can't even tell these people what I feel?

- No, you cannot. - How does that even make sense?

That's not fair!

If you feel wronged, grab a sword.

Grab a sword that is sharp enough...

to hurt the world.

(Episode 22 will air shortly.)
