Prosecutor Princess

Episode 14

Even if it hurts, I'll handle the hurt,

so don't say that it was all fake, all a lie, okay?

Lawyer Seo.

Tell me you felt bad about it. Tell me you're sorry.

Tell me now.

That you're sorry.

Goodbye, goodbye my princess.

I will let you go now.

Stretch your wings

and fly away as high as the sky.

Goodbye, goodbye my princess.

But, remember me,

who has been there for you.

Goodbye.

When I look back,

the one who held out a hand

was always me.

You just dreamed.

How much harder for you do you want to let it get?

It would be easier if you hated me.

Finally,

I feel like I can breathe again.

That's enough for me.

Thank goodness,

that you like your adoptive father.

Really, thank goodness.

Thank goodness.

I remember.

Your face has gotten more handsome.

And, you've gotten a lot taller.

It wasn't my father! It really wasn't!

Don't make a ruckus at the wrong place and go home, kid!

Ahjussi. Ahjussi.

President Ahjussi! Ahjussi!

President Ahjussi!

My mom just made them so they're really tasty and warm.

Eat.

If you starve, you'll die.

I don't need it.

- They're really tasty if you eat them with banana milk. - I'm not eating it!

Thank goodness.

And you're ill-natured like you were back then.

And, even back then you were a total softy.

While you keep asking Hye Ri if something is wrong,

if there was something wrong with Hey Ri and I didn't tell you,

and if something happened to her while you didn't know,

I don't think you'd let me off and so, I thought about it all day yesterday ...

You're making me dizzy.

Put it simply and just tell me. What is it?

Hye Ri ... has a man.

Hye Ri has a man?

That ...

I already told you last time,

for certain, his name, his occupation, his personality, his body condition,

No, I didn't tell you his body condition, but I told you everything else.

You just didn't hear me!

When?

Who is it?

Frankly, I just don't understand.

Why say that you didn't hear any of the things I told you that day,

I just really, really don't understand.

I'm asking you who it is?!

His name is Seo In Woo.

Seo In Woo?

Our Hye Ri really likes him.

He's a lawyer.

Hye Ri ...

really what?

Hello.

What are you here for?

I guess you're not really pleased to see me.

So you didn't actually witness Seo Dong Gun murder Yoo Myung Woo?

No, I didn't.

Then, why did you speak in a way that made it sound so definite?

When did I?

When did you start this nursery business?

After the Yoo Myung Woo murder case,

you quit your job as security guard for Jin Ri Construction, correct?

Prosecutor...

why, exactly, are you asking me these things?

My name is Ma Hye Ri.

You don't think I know that?

Ma Sang Tae ...

I'm his daughter.

Ma Sang Tae?

And Lawyer Seo In Woo

is Seo Dong Gun's ...

son.

Let me tell you once more.

I'm Ma Sang Tae's daughter.

And Seo In Woo

is Seo Dong Gun's son.

Why Ma Sang Tae's daughter keeps coming to see you,

why Seo Dong Gun's son has been at your side,

think carefully about it, and ...

and then, call me.

Ah, Prosecutor.

Lawyer Seo In Woo is Seo Dong Gun's son?

What kind of ...

What I can tell you

is that there is definitely something that's been hidden about that case,

and that you know what it is, and based on you,

something can be changed.

But, I really don't know what you're talking about ...

Seo Dong Gun's son?

You came?

- It's been a while, hasn't it? - Yes.

No way.

It's been a while, hasn't it?

Why are you so startled?

No, well um ...

Let's see.

Let's see how today's freesias look.

Did I mention where I take these freesias every week?

Um, Lawyer ...

Usually it's women who like freesias.

But my father worked in construction,

and he liked this flower.

Is that why he was so sentimental?

Lawyer.

His name was Seo-Dong-Gun.

Do you know him, by any chance?

Wh-what is it you want from me?

What do you think it could be?

As life goes on, there will be a time when I need your help.

What could a man like you need my help for?

If I did, would you help?

Ah, of course.

I give you my word, with my son as witness.

Just say the word.

Hye Ri ... has a man.

She likes him so much, she even cried buckets because she missed him.

Just because there is no evidence that I used your daughter,

it doesn't necessarily mean I didn't use Hye Ri.

That's what it was?

It was our Hye Ri?

[President Ma Sang Tae]

This is Seo In Woo.

Where are you right now?

If you're at your office, I'll come over.

I don't think we have the sort of relationship where I'll meet you whenever you want.

Aren't you a lawyer that gives clients top priority?

It you want to meet with me as a lawyer, I should come and see you.

Where are you?

Please sit.

Let's sit.

What's your relationship with our Hye Ri?

What is it?

Was that what it was?

You talk about investigating a 15 year old case,

about clearing your father's name and what not, but ultimately,

seducing my daughter to take revenge on me was your goal?

Right, I thought it was strange.

After all, it's a case that could never get anywhere after all this time.

What have you done to our Hye Ri?!

President Ma,

I think you've misunderstood something,

but in front of me,

don't try to act like a virtuous father defending his daughter.

What?

Before you get angry worrying about your daughter,

doesn't an apology come first?

If there's something you want to do with me, use the law to do it.

So, there's no way I'll find any evidence that proves you killed Yoo Myung Woo.

I see you're sure of that.

I have nothing to say to you about that case.

But,

I guess you have a lot to say to me about Ma Hye Ri.

With the time you're spending with me, why don't you convince your daughter?

"That bastard Seo In Woo is just stepping on you to get his revenge on me."

You tell Hye Ri yourself.

What?

You're determined, aren't you?

Are you saying that you could never admit to your daughter that you're a murderer?

After making my father a murderer to the entire world?

Don't talk without any proof!

You really

want to bury the past that much?

Then, you keep the past.

I'll have your daughter.

What? You punk!

If you don't like that,

then give me back my past.

Pick one of the two.

You can't have both.

Hello.

Sunbaenim (senior)

Let's go. Let's carpool again.

What? I need to go workout.

I heard you joined, but don't go very often at all.

Well, I'm planning to go more often.

Why take two cars in a country that doesn't produce a drop of oil?

Mine's a compact car and doesn't use much gas.

Right, you used to be like this.

- You talked back a lot. - Excuse me?

Don't let it show.

Don't be afraid.

Oh, yeah.

I almost forgot it.

Yes, hello.

Ah, hello.

Ah, I've come in.

Ah, Sunbaenim, good morning.

- Oh, are you all right? - Yes!

Good Morning.

- Prosecutor! - Prosecutor!

Isn't "Good Morning" something you say when you haven't seen each other in a while?

Please sit.

Without you in the office, it was so cold and lonely.

I thought icicles were going to form.

I'm grateful for such a warm welcome.

I'm going to review how the investigations have been going.

They say that if you're in, they'll start the meeting now.

Okay.

He was working part-time delivering for the cleaners,

when he hit a foreign car with his scooter.

He said he ran because he didn't have the money to repair the car.

It turns out he's on welfare.

Aigoo, geez.

Then, just file it as a fined misdemeanor.

Yes, that's what I had planned.

But, what are these two gentlemen doing?

Don't you have anything to report?

Excuse me?

Do you have anything to report?

Excuse me?

Ah, not yet ...

We all just came into work so there aren't any cases we've dealt with.

Prosecutor Ma.

Why'd you use your valuable vacation days, hmm?

Don't you know the benefit of being in civil service?

Even if you're absent without notice, it's hard to be fired.

Hey, Prosecutor Choi Ji Woon,

do you want to go to the Dokdo prosecutor's office?

- Do you want to go and take a long rest? - Well, I'm just ...

I was just afraid Prosecutor Ma won't be able to get off for vacation this summer.

Oh, that's all right with me.

We barely talked the Chief out of visiting you at home.

The Chief?

He said that a single, living alone, feels pretty sad when he or she's sick.

Whether it's the Chief or whoever,

we felt barging in unannounced wasn't right so we talked him out of it.

"Some chief or whoever"?

She said "the Chief".

She said "the" Chief or whoever.

Hey, Yoon Se Jun.

Aigoo, now that I look at it,

taking sides and defending people seems to be your specialty.

I'm not taking sides.

This is Shin Jung Nam.

Do you have some time today?

You said you were President Ma Sang Tae's daughter?

Yes.

I heard the general story from Lawyer Seo In Woo.

Lawyer Seo came by?

As soon as you left.

I see.

I did make a promise to Lawyer Seo In Woo

in front of my son,

but the moment the two of you appeared, Ma Sang Tae's daughter,

and Department Chief Seo Dong Gun's son,

I felt that karma must really exist.

And I became really scared.

What is this?

Everything ... began because of this.

At that time, our Dong Ha

had been in the hospital a long time because of a heart problem.

Please just give me a week.

I'll do whatever I can to come up with the money.

It's already been 3 months.

If you don't pay by tomorrow, you'll need to vacate the room.

You can't let a child die because of an incompetent father.

Just one week, no, just 3 days.

You have until tomorrow.

Because the hospital bill was unusually high,

I slipped out on my night shift very briefly to drop by the hospital.

Because I was on my way back from an unauthorized absence,

I was in a frantic rush,

and it never even crossed my mind that it was President Ma Sang Tae.

Aigoo, I've been away from my post too long.

As I rushed to make my rounds, I saw the scene.

I saw President Yoo with Seo Dong Gun and money.

Hello?

A... A person has died here!

After I made the report and returned, Department Chief Seo was already gone.

But the money was all still there.

I couldn't think about anything else,

and I took the briefcase of money.

So there was a briefcase of money?

I could have never guessed that the briefcase of money was President Ma Sang Tae's.

It was ...

my father's?

Dad, please.

What, exactly, do you want me to tell you?

All of it.

Everything that happened that day.

I want to hear it directly from you.

I have nothing to say.

Please don't do that, Dad.

I came, knowing everything.

You came knowing what everything?

I heard from Shin Jung Nam ...

about your briefcase of money.

What do you mean "briefcase of money"?

That you told Shin Jung Nam if he didn't say he saw you,

he could keep and use the money in the briefcase, and ...

in addition,

that you even paid Shin Jung Nam's son's hospital bills.

So, tell me what really happened.

Please clear it up with your own words.

Are you ...

doing this because of that guy?

Seo Dong Gun's son, Seo In Woo?

H-how did you find out?

Kid, are you in your right mind?

How can you do this?

On his orders, you went around investigating your father?

I just wanted to know the truth!

If it wasn't for that guy, how would you have known about this?!

He must have expected I would hunt it out.

Because he's someone who's lived 15 years with the goal of clearing his father's name

when he returned.

What?

Han Jung Ran, Go Man Chul, Shin Jung Nam,

no, I didn't find them purely on my own.

So,

now that you have evidence,

are you saying you're going to do something with me?

For him?

No.

If it was for him,

I would have already reported it.

If I was only thinking of him,

I would have knelt in place of you and begged for forgiveness 10 times, 100 times over!

What?

But, I couldn't.

Because you

are my dad.

Before I saw any evidence,

I told myself it wasn't you ...

I prayed no evidence would surface,

and yet,

when I thought about it,

I felt sorry for him.

Listen kid,

he approached you intentionally.

If I were him, I think I would have done the same.

His father died in prison as a criminal.

Within four months of moving to the U.S.,

his mother died in a car accident.

He said he saw

his mother die right in front of his eyes.

Dad,

I want to beg him to let you go, but I can't bring myself to.

How could I?

So then, if it was me, what would you do?

If your father is a criminal, what are you going to do?

I don't know.

That's why it's so hard,

whether I think of him,

whether I think of you ...

When I worry about you, I feel so bad for him.

So, I feel I'm going crazy.

Did that bastard

make you this way?

Please tell me, what am I supposed to do?

She's really lovely, isn't she?

Because he's someone who's lived 15 years with the goal of clearing his father's name

when he returned.

Han Jung Ran, Go Man Chul, Shin Jung Nam,

no, I didn't find them purely on my own.

You really want to bury the past that much?

Then, you keep the past.

I'll have your daughter.

I don't know.

That's why it's so hard,

whether I think of you,

whether I think of him ...

When I worry about you,

I feel so bad for him, so ...

so, I feel I'm going crazy.

Aigoo, what is with you? Aigoo! Aigoo!

Listen aeja, aeja, Park Ae Ja! (aeja = darling child)

I guess you haven't forgotten that.

Aeja, aeja, Park Ae Ja!

You said that there's not much to life, didn't you?

You said that all you need is food in your belly, a warm back and what else was it?

Feeling at peace.

Then, that tiny little place we had when we first got married,

were you happy with that?

Oh my gosh.

You even remember that!

Just so I could get a subcontract, you would go around every holiday,

and offer all the big construction firm presidents kimchi that you made.

You liked that?

I was so good at making kimchi.

So, you're saying you liked being poor?

I'm not saying I liked being poor, I'm just saying I felt at peace.

Not me!!

I really hated it!

I hated it with a passion!!

Honey.

A tiny shack fit for a servant boy.

That mindset I lived with to get out of that incredible poverty!

Could you know?

Could Hye Ri know?

Ma Sang Tae,

did something happen today?

Beginning with my child,

the baby born trusting Ma Sang Tae!

I wanted to make a home to live in, plump and happy ...

With her eyes more beautiful than any of the world's jewels,

Hye Ri and then her children, and her children's children ...

I wanted to make it so they all could live well and happy!

Honey, what's the matter?

Something ...

has gone wrong.

I didn't want it to be like this.

But, it looks like it may destroy my daughter.

Please sit.

You're really not like your father.

You're not Seo Dong Gun's son.

Your father was a soft-hearted man.

He was a good person with a soft heart.

When we were doing a large-scale construction project in Cheonji-dong,

Seo Dong Gun managed the negotiations.

He sided with the displaced residents to the very end.

That's why I said we'd give them 150% of the purchase price.

The displaced residents who've lived there all their lives and have to sell their land for dirt cheap,

please give them a little more consideration, President.

Can't we give them 50% more?

Department Chief Seo, have you come as the representative for their side?

If he was as controlling, precise and strategic a person as you,

he wouldn't have fallen victim that night.

Are you twisting this into my father's fault?

I'm just saying your character determines your destiny.

Like my Hye Ri, your father was the same way.

If Hye Ri was like me, your plan to approach her,

you couldn't have even dreamed of it from the very beginning.

If Seo Dong Gun was like you,

he wouldn't have been labeled a murder for the rest of his life.

It sounds like you're admitting that you framed him for a crime.

No.

I'm just angry at myself for not knowing you had embedded yourself in my daughter's life!

Then,

I'll ask you outright.

What do you want me to do?

I came because I wanted to know clearly what it is you wanted.

If you want me to beg for forgiveness, I will. If you want me to kneel, I will.

I didn't frame your father intentionally.

If you're wanting to cover up the case,

I can't do that.

I don't want to be a father who drives a stake into his daughter's heart and ruins her life.

That's precisely what I want to return to my father.

The figure you want to be for your daughter,

I'm sure my father wanted to be the same for his son.

So, I can't allow it to be covered up.

Then ...

if I admit it,

you'll leave Hye Ri?

Leave the daughter you approached because of me,

and disappear forever?

Why don't you answer?!

Didn't you say you came to clear your father's name?

It's not enough you used my innocent daughter

and made her dig up her own father's case?!

I have no further intentions.

Aside from clearing my father's name,

I don't have any desire to gain anything else.

Is this a promise, then?

My Hye Ri isn't like me.

She can't be ruthless.

If you intentionally keep hold of Hye Ri's emotions,

I won't leave you alone.

I give you my promise.

All right.

If you're Seo Dong Gun's son,

you will keep your promise.

Another thing.

Don't tell Hye Ri anything,

not even that we met.

Until I tell her myself,

please wait.

I have to do it.

Why doesn't it occur to you that Hye Ri could be someone important to me too?

I'm not on such close terms with you,

and I don't like to bother about our people's personal matters.

But your current state really makes a person worried.

Tell me about it.

Eh?

Why are you so surprised? It's as if you committed some crime.

It's all right if you don't want to talk about it.

I just think that you look like you're in pain.

It wouldn't be very nice if I pretended nothing was going on, so I'm enquiring after you.

That ...

During the time Sunbae has been a prosecutor,

have you ever done anything that went against your conscience?

What? Are you worrying about being a prosecutor?

Everyone says that we are people who pursue justice.

But if the truth is frightening, what should we do?

If this truth is a type of harm for me and my family

what would the other prosecutors do?

If it were Sunbae, what would you do? Have you come across a similar circumstance?

Your question leads one to ponder, but the answer is very simple.

Very simple?

Solution: None.

That's because every prosecutor's thinking and values are different.

Leave it to one's personal choices.

What if it were you?

If it was me ...

Can you cite an example?

Be more specific as to who committed what kind of wrong?

Ah ... it's not an intentional murder.

It's because of Lawyer Seo right?

Eh?

What happened to him?

Did something happen during the course of defending a case?

No.

Did you two break up?

For him and me, there's nothing to say about breaking up.

"Nothing to say about breaking up?"

What do you mean by that?

There is no relationship between us. Absolutely no relationship.

He is actually such a jerk?

I didn't mean it that way.

Someone you shouldn't have ever met, someone with whom things will never work out?

It's about the same.

Then you should forget him quickly.

It's not easy to find someone with whom you can be together.

A person who has hurt you must be forgotten unconditionally.

Take this chance that everything is about to become memories and make a clean break.

Even though he has caused me pain, but can all this become memories?

Of course.

When the wounds have healed, everything will become blurry.

In the end, even the scars will have disappeared.

But there would also be scars that cannot disappear.

Ma Hye Ri, do you have something against me?

Why do you keeping saying things that are opposite to mine?

Are you going out?

Yes, to the Chief's office.

I came to get the combined records for that criminal case investigation.

Oh that ...

I'll find it myself, please go on ahead.

All right.

[Jung Seon - Cherry Blossoms]

What is happening? What is this doing here?

Did you find it?

Eh?

Didn't you say you wanted it? Why didn't you take it with you?

Yes.

But Sunbae, those photos ...

What photos?

The cherry blossoms?

Yes, why do you have those pictures?

Why did you go to that place by yourself?

Who said that? Who said I went by myself?

Sunbae, you are really ...

Were those photos sent to you by Bin?

My mother doesn't know how to operate a digital camera.

Bin didn't say anything right?

Say what?

- Say that you like me? - Eh?

Why are you so surprised?

You said it yourself before.

I did? When was that? I only told Prosecutor Ma.

See ... Didn't you say it before?

This ... that ... Sunbae ...

I have to talk to the victim. I'm leaving first.

Why are all the photos like this?

If I had known, I would have taken the photos when he used to smile more often.

Isn't that Prosecutor Ma?

Your illness is quite serious.

You gave me a shock.

You really like me that much?

What?

Just now, didn't you hide yourself and secretly take photos of me?

Why are you imitating me?

No ... I didn't.

That's right. Prosecutor Ma doesn't have my picture right?

But I have a lot.

I'm going in first.

All right.

Give your mind a holiday once in a while.

We'll go out of control for one day.

We'll be together for one day, Hye Ri.

Why did we come here?

To be your model.

You want me to take my hand phone and take photos at such a place?

Would I, Seo In Woo, have such poor taste?

Get out.

It's amazing.

The accessories for the perfect revenge plan.

There's even a camera.

At that time, did you use this to take my photos too?

Let me see.

Give it to me.

Give it to me.

Really.

Why aren't you taking photos?

You're asking me to take photos with just these few poses?

Why? It's not to your liking?

This seems quite good.

Oh, that's not bad.

What did you say?

That pose just now ...

This ... this wasn't bad.

Really ... you're impossible.

All right, take the picture.

Okay! That's the one. One more.

It looks good.

This picture is really funny.

That's a lot of pictures. Not bad.

He didn't even suggest taking a picture together.

Have you taken enough? Let's go.

That ... How about we take a picture together?

Why should we?

Can't we take one picture together?

- Of course not. - Why not?

I don't take pictures with women casually.

Casually?

We're not lovers, and won't become lovers.

We're not friends, and not relatives.

We're nothing to each other. Isn't that right?

If you're a lawyer, then act like a lawyer and make yourself clear.

Casually and nothing to each other. Do they mean the same thing?

Then explain what is different about the two.

Your occupational habit of asking endless questions is occurring again.

You have to be careful about this.

Men dislike this the most. The way women ask questions endlessly.

Women also dislike men such as Lawyer Seo.

Always needing to have your say.

Acting all cool and distant. Butting in with your words when the woman hasn't finished speaking and...

And ... there should be more.

There's more?

There's a lot more. So much more that it's scary.

So why are you still liking a guy like this?

Even secretly taking pictures of him.

What should I do with this popularity of mine?

You were the one who secretly took my picture first.

You're really not going to take a picture with me?

Yes.

Then return all the photos you took of me! The ones that you took secretly.

How many photos did you take while investigating me behind my back? Return them all to me.

All right, I'll return them.

I was planning to throw them away. When are you coming to collect them?

What? Why are you laughing?

That's why I said that there's no use for a photo.

Look at you ... at your current expression.

How to take a picture at such a time?

My mind, eyes and heart,

are filled with all your expressions.

Thank you very much for today.

I was your model, and you're not even giving me some water to drink?

I'm leaving first.

How about we have a drinking competition?

Don't you have the alcohol tolerance of a god?

When I first returned to Korea, what was most amazing was this *somaek. (*somaek is soju mixed with beer)

There has to be a spiral. What happened?

I lost.

Bottoms up.

You have something to say to me right?

Say it now.

All the things you did today, is because you have something to say to me.

The things I did today? What did I do?

Lawyer Seo.

It looks like you really wish to go back home quickly.

I understand. I will let you return home early.

But from this moment on, you're only allowed to listen to me.

I speak, you listen.

Promise?

There are errors in the words I said before, and I wish to correct them.

Feeling that it was amusing to use you.

Ma Sang Tae, to cause you to end up in your own daughter's hands.

You were chosen not because of those reasons.

What do you mean ...

It may seem that I'm defending myself here.

But at that time I really needed you to become a prosecutor.

Even if I was a prosecutor, I would not be able to handle my own father's case.

With the exception of myself,

would there be a prosecutor in this world

who would be interested to investigate a case that ended over ten years ago?

Moreover, even if the investigation was started anew, nothing would be discovered.

What you are saying now, isn't it the same as before?

You chose me because I'm my father's daughter.

My thinking has changed.

At first, I was only trying to clear my father's name.

But, you were the safest method to take.

Why are you saying this now?

Although it's late, I would still like to apologize to you.

For using you, who had no prior knowledge,

I'm sorry.

But you have already apologized, and you even said it three times.

I'd like to sincerely apologize in front of you.

All right.

And ...

Even though I'm sorry,

I'm helpless.

For this I'm sorry.

Stop fooling around.

I'm not fooling around.

I just feel that this feeling is really good.

It's really good.

To have someone support you when you're unsteady.

It seems that all the parents in this world are the same.

Oh.

Are you unwell?

You're amazing.

Is it serious? It seems like it's serious.

I can't go to work today.

I want to stay at home today and rest.

Let me help you with those.

Omo! Who is this? It's little Seo.

Oh my! We actually bumped into each other here.

Give it to me.

Oh my.

Your family has brought you up well.

Please go ahead.

But, how did you suddenly appear here? Just like a superman.

You didn't go to work?

I have some business around this area.

It seems that your work and life are all at your own pleasure.

If I had known, I would have asked our Hye Ri to be a lawyer instead.

A lawyer couple. Doesn't it sound good?

No.

Prosecutor-lawyer couple sounds better.

Thank you.

I'll be leaving.

Why don't you drink some tea before leaving?

It's all right.

Then food ... Have you had your meal?

If you haven't eaten, I'll prepare it immediately.

I've eaten.

But ... how do I put it ...

the feeling is a little different compared to the previous time.

Is it because Hye Ri isn't here?

No, it isn't.

Did you have a fight with Hye Ri?

So that's the reason.

No wonder your face is sunken. It's because you two had a fight.

We've broken up.

Broke ...

This ... So I said ...

I'm sorry.

No, no, no.

What's there to be sorry about? You're young adults, it's normal to break up.

Although it's like this ...

This is abalone porridge. I was thinking of making some for Hye Ri.

You saw it just now, I bought all the ingredients, and specially came here to make it for her.

I'm all right.

I was so happy when I saw you just now that I didn't think much about it.

Feeling unwell the whole night, and didn't have anything to eat in the morning.

You actually went to the pharmacy before, right?

But you don't have to do this.

Just treat it like the ahjumma from the floor below made it for you. Eat it.

Don't think of me as Hye Ri's mother.

A near neighbor is better than a distant relative.

If one is too concerned about saving face, he is bound to suffer disadvantages.

Quick come over.

I'm really all right.

Mother.

The porridge can be eaten very quickly.

So I'll just wait here and bring the bowl back when you have finished.

Yes.

Why did you and Hye Ri break up?

Did you two break up because Hye Ri's father dislikes you, and said something to you?

No, that's not it.

I have such a big mouth. Quick eat. Eat, eat.

I didn't say anything.

Hye Ri is very much like her mother.

How did you know?

In the past, Hye Ri was exactly like me.

It is I who is exactly like Hye Ri.

Yes.

It's my first time to hear a guy call me "Mother".

I heard you don't have a mother.

I was thinking I could have a son as well.

I was hoping to take care of you like a mother would.

If you have anything that needs my help ...

Who would come here?

It's my friend.

Friend?

Honey, I bought porridge.

Is this the aunty who cleans the house?

Be careful with your words.

I'm sorry, Mother.

I'm leaving.

Ma Hye Ri's mother?

Where did you ask mother to go? She doesn't have many places she can go to.

I feel it's better to have your mother know about this at a later time.

Did they break up because he has another woman?

How can one person be so fickle?

Why did I say so much?

Mother?

When did you start calling Ma Hye Ri's mother "Mother"?

Along with that, when did you get to know Ma Hye Ri's mother?

You don't have to question me.

I really don't know why both mother and daughter

are so simple and naive to allow themselves to be affected by you.

Don't say it that way.

The situation has already come to this, but she is still in the dark.

It doesn't matter if Hye Ri's mother knows or not.

We shouldn't be concerned about it.

What if Ma Hye Ri is not planning to reverse the judgment of the case?

There isn't much time left in the statute of limitations.

I know.

I'm reminding you because I'm worried you have forgotten.

The window is closing if you want to file a lawsuit against Ma Sang Tae during the prosecution period.

What is Ma Hye Ri doing now?

I don't know.

She should be taking some action.

Anyway, Ma Hye Ri's usefulness can only last to this point.

Ma Hye Ri cannot take charge of the case because it concerns her father.

The prosecutor's office will have to take over the investigation

and find evidence that Ma Sang Tae is a killer.

Her usefulness lasts only up to this point.

But this is not easy for her.

You painstakingly orchestrated this because you know it's not going to be easy.

Are you asking the obvious? That is her father.

I've said that she won't hand over her father to be investigated

if she knows that he is a criminal.

You have also expected this.

She will definitely experience distress and agony.

She will conceal her own father's case, and remove her prosecutor's robe.

Do you still remember how much I had bet?

You said not to worry, and how much did you, Seo In Woo, bet?

You said you would act before she could do that.

Now is the time to do so.

Use the evidence that was previously uncovered to prevent her from concealing the case ...

Just wait a while longer.

In Woo.

Proving that Ma Sang Tae is the real culprit is the only way to clear your father's name.

Don't tell Hye Ri.

Wait until I tell her myself.

Just wait a while longer.

Why are you still waiting?

It's because I promised.

Didn't you have something to say to me?

I will now tell you the truth you've been so curious to find out.

Yoo Myung Woo was killed by me.

How do you do? I'm Shim Gun Wook.

Why didn't you say anything?

About him being Mo Ne's brother?

I can even kill for you.

Have you begun to like him?

Now that you know who he is?
