Original subtitles

Ms. Choi?

You seemed to be mad at me.

So I came to have some fun.

Hey!

Hey, have you gone insane?

What are you doing in my room?

You...

You scratched my face.

Do you know that?

Get out.

Mi Rae.

What's wrong?

Why have you become so rude after coming to Korea?

Hey.

Are you seeing someone?

Are you?

(Episode 12)

Shouldn't you go to the hospital?

She must be out of her mind.

How dare she scratch your face? Let me see you.

Oh, dear. Her father will go ballistic if he finds out.

I think I should take her back with me.

To the States?

Yes. After coming back to Korea,

she's become a bit odd.

Say no, Mom.

Please.

You're right. I think that's for the best.

Her father hasn't been happy about her being here anyway.

It's cold. Go inside.

I'll find her and bring her in.

It's okay. She looks a bit shook up.

I'll go and comfort her.

You should go in. It's cold.

It's okay. You must be freezing.

- Ma'am. - Goodness.

- She's around here. Find her. - Yes, ma'am.

Ms. Ko.

Excuse me... You...

Gosh.

Darn it.

(Mom)

(Lawyer Han Woo Sung)

Honey.

I found this in the trash.

I think it's time to throw it out.

Seeing how you picked it up,

you must really cherish it.

You gave this to me.

That shirt...

has traces of some other woman.

Some other woman? Who?

Do you mean Ms. Ko?

Am I wrong?

Honey, I think there's a misunderstanding.

She and I have nothing...

She likes you.

And you enjoy the attention.

Hello?

I'm sorry for calling.

But I had no one else to...

I've been looking all over for you.

Ms. Ko.

I've told you last time...

not to contact me because my wife didn't like it.

It's rude to call at this hour.

I'm hanging up.

I don't enjoy it.

I'm sure she understands now.

Are we done?

I'll also quit politics...

so that I won't run into her again.

No.

Continue.

You must get elected.

- But you said... - You have my full support.

Honey.

Did you meet with Mr. Nam?

I heard you also came to the mural event.

Why didn't you tell me?

Are you picking a fight?

- That's not it. - I have to work.

I mean... She's always like that.

You can have your own nest egg,

but not cigarettes.

A copy of the resident registration, marriage registration form...

Marriage registration form?

(Marriage Registration Form)

What is this? Are you doing a background check on Kang Yeo Joo?

How do you know if she got married without registering it?

I guess through a wedding invitation or wedding photos.

Why? Was she married once before?

Yes, there's a wedding invite.

Seriously? Whom did she marry?

Joo Min Jae.

He's a journalist at Daean Daily.

The newspaper company she used to work at as a journalist?

(National Intelligence Service, Newspaper Library)

Joo Min Jae.

("Journalist Joo Min Jae Receives the Journalist Award")

He was active until 10 years ago.

Why hasn't he published anything since then?

("Attorneys-at-Law Act Amended to Put an End to Privileges")

I don't think he moved companies either.

("Journalist Joo Min Jae Receives the Journalist Award")

("Journalist Joo Min Jae Receives the Journalist Award")

("Okrang-gu Murder Killer Receives Life Sentence")

Sure, let's do that.

Then let's make our wedding invitations right away.

Aren't you rushing things?

When should I introduce myself to your father?

It's been over 10 years since I last spoke to him.

It's a good excuse to call him.

Your marriage.

I can't forgive him.

Gosh, I'm going to be late again.

Hey. Go to Daean Daily.

I sent them a request for their cooperation,

so you just need to go see the head of the politics department.

(Daean Daily)

Hey. Are you busy?

I'm not busy.

Then can you find me Ko Byung Hee's defense?

Take it out yourself. It's in the second cabinet on your right.

Okay. I will.

Ever since we went to your house,

Yoon Hui hasn't cooked for me.

I don't have energy, so my legs are weak.

Why won't she cook?

She told me to ask Ko Mi Rae to cook for me!

I don't expect loyalty from you.

The least you can do is not frame me.

If you have a conscience, you wouldn't be able to lift your head.

How dare you be so shameless as to talk to me?

Maybe it's because you tried to get into politics.

Why have you become so thick-skinned?

My gosh. I still feel sick because of you. My gosh.

Hey!

Hey. At least answer me!

Ms. Ko. I've told you last time...

not to contact me because my wife didn't like it.

It's rude to call at this hour.

Why did she have to call when my wife was around?

But she saved my life.

I was mean.

No. Never mind.

Hello?

I'm calling from Seoyeon Patrol Station.

The patrol station?

(Seoyeon Patrol Station, Civil Rights, Justice, Kind)

Excuse me. I'm Han Woo Sung. I got a call from you.

Oh, right. Come over here.

Over there.

What happened?

Somebody found her loitering in her pajamas and brought her in.

She doesn't have her wallet or any form of ID.

She refuses to talk,

so we checked her cellphone and called the person she last spoke to.

I see. Thank you.

Are you okay?

Don't cry.

I'm sorry. You probably called because you needed money.

I didn't even ask what was wrong.

I didn't want to call,

but I had nobody else to call. I'm sorry.

I see.

I would've done the same thing.

You made the right decision. It's okay.

Don't cry.

Hey.

Did you eat?

The ramyeon came.

Enjoy your meal.

Eat up.

You should eat rice. Will this be enough?

Yes.

It's really good.

It doesn't have enough water.

The fire wasn't strong enough, so the noodles aren't chewy.

You brought me here saying it's a delicious restaurant?

You should eat slowly.

I don't normally get to eat this.

I want to eat as much as I can when I get the chance.

Why can't you eat?

Because I don't have the money to buy it.

(Han Woo Sung's location has been verified.)

(Han Woo Sung, Come Again Ramyeon)

"Come Again Ramyeon"?

That's the ramyeon place he likes.

Is he having ramyeon for lunch?

Call me whenever you crave ramyeon.

Right.

You shouldn't call me.

You shouldn't message me either.

Even emails are a bit...

You can write me a letter to my office.

(Come Again Ramyeon, 16 dollars, Seongju Mart, 80.70 dollars)

(Come Again Ramyeon, 16 dollars, Seongju Mart, 80.70 dollars)

Why did he spend so much money at the supermarket?

Why aren't you asking?

About what?

About what happened.

It seems like something you don't want to remember.

If I ask you about it,

you have to remember it.

You know that I'm a lawyer, right?

Are you sure you don't need my help?

Then can I call you?

I'll only call when it's urgent.

Well... The thing is...

If you don't want me to, it's fine.

I don't want to put you in a difficult position.

Sure. You can call me.

One second.

I got a call.

(My Love)

Hello?

Where are you?

Oh, I'm in my office.

What about lunch?

I ordered jjajangmyeon.

Oh, hey. It just got here.

I'll call you after I eat.

Sure. Eat up before the noodles get soggy.

(Han Woo Sung, Husband)

No one knows that Joo Min Jae married Kang Yeo Joo.

I found no one who went to their wedding...

or heard of their marriage.

Were they married in secret or what?

Then why did he disappear after that?

He didn't disappear. He died.

He died?

Ten years ago.

In a car explosion.

A car exploded, and he died?

("A Mysterious Car Explosion, Causes Unknown")

The car was completely burned up,

but they both died before they got to the hospital.

Both?

There was a woman in the passenger seat,

and he had been living with a woman.

He lived with her?

Everyone else seemed to know about them.

I'm sure Kang Yeo Joo knew too.

He was about to marry Kang Yeo Joo,

yet he cheated on her?

But here's a funny thing.

What is it? There's more?

The cause of the explosion wasn't ever solved.

If the cause of the explosion wasn't found,

then it might not be an accident.

The first article Kang Yeo Joo wrote after she became a reporter...

was an analysis of car explosions.

So you remember.

This is the article she wrote.

("Causes of Car Explosions and Cases It Was Used for a Crime")

"Causes of Car Explosions..."

"and Cases It Was Used for a Crime."

(Reporter Kang Yeo Joo, Daean Daily)

By Reporter Kang Yeo Joo.

(Lawyer Han Woo Sung)

Call me on this number when there's an emergency.

Are you sure it's all right?

Wouldn't it be troublesome with your wife?

I don't use that phone often, so it's fine.

Okay.

I should go.

Okay.

Are you sure you're okay?

I'm getting a lot of courage thinking about that ramyeon.

Okay.

Don't worry.

I'm sure I won't have to call you.

It's just...

reassuring to know I have someone to call.

Thank you for your help today.

(Spicy Noodles)

This is a detailed account of car explosions.

She understands how the engine works from A to Z.

It wouldn't be out of place if it got on a science magazine.

Could it be a coincidence?

You know her. She does everything like an expert.

(Spicy Noodles)

Kang Yeo Joo could have killed Joo Min Jae,

then covered it up as an accident.

There have been many odd deaths lately.

But there was no proper investigation.

But then...

she tried to kill her boyfriend too.

She tried to kill her then-boyfriend.

She believed he was cheating on her.

Men who cheat in Kang Yeo Joo's novels...

end up getting killed brutally.

If this was her novel,

Han Woo Sung would be dead by now.

Sorry.

I saw it...

with my own two eyes.

So you're saying you saw Baek Soo Jung's body?

Then...

how did you escape?

Over here! Get me out!

Take me with you!

That was the last time...

I saw that man.

He's in the hospital now.

And unconscious.

You're the only one who can bear testimony.

That woman was right.

Now you're the only one who knows the real killer.

A woman?

You mean,

Kang Yeo Joo?

What did she say?

Did she threaten you?

In that case, once you disappear,

this will turn into a perfect crime.

Do you still want to get out of here?

Excuse me.

Hey.

We'll do everything we can to make sure...

- she doesn't hurt you, so... - I need to see her.

Ms. Kang Yeo Joo.

Mr. Kim.

I'm the real culprit.

Okay.

Fine.

Okay, I get it.

Let me ask you one last question.

It's about Baek Soo Jung's trophy.

Why was it with you?

Soo Jung...

threw it at me.

I think there was a misunderstanding.

She got very angry at me.

You're with them too.

I trusted you.

You were a spy who was sent here...

to keep an eye on me!

Goodness.

That was the last time I saw her.

You just said you...

You said you killed her.

Right. Yes.

I killed her with that trophy.

You said you used a knife!

You said you did this.

Please let me see Ms. Kang.

Then I'll tell you everything.

Please, I ask of you. Please let me see her.

Please.

So she insists on writing "The Secret Prayer Room" again?

She signed the publishing deal with me, so don't worry.

We will...

have the book in our hands.

Well, if that's so...

A misfortune turned into a blessing.

It's too early to rest easy.

We're up against Yeo Joo.

Who knows what she's capable of?

Don't you remember the reporter from Daean Daily...

who died nine years ago?

It's too early to rest easy.

We're up against Yeo Joo.

Who knows what she's capable of?

Don't you remember the reporter from Daean Daily...

who died nine years ago?

She's living a quiet life...

ever since she married Han Woo Sung.

That marriage is the problem.

Mr. Nam has him in his hands.

He'll try to use him to control Yeo Joo.

That sly rat.

Too many people got hurt to this day.

We need to put an end to this.

The world will be ours...

in just a few months.

Yes, sir.

I'll carry out our plan.

Good.

(Park Jae Geun)

- Get this out there. - Over there?

(A president who works! A president who does his job!)

(Park Jae Geun will keep our nation safe!)

(Enter Passcode)

(Enter Passcode)

I sent you a picture of the mural.

Did you see it?

I never got it.

(Messages)

Whoa, my gosh.

What? What is it?

"Cheat On Me, If You Can."

What?

Why would I cheat on you?

That's my most recent book. "Cheat On Me, If You Can."

You're right.

That was the title of your novel.

"Cheat On Me, If You Can."

The main character is a lawyer, so I need some information.

Could you give me a hand?

Yes, of course.

Thanks, honey.

Gosh, you don't have to thank me.

Why are you drinking coffee this early? It'll hurt your stomach.

Honey, what's this novel about?

- A lawyer... - It already sounds great!

My gosh.

Thank you.

- Gets involved in a murder case. - Man.

It sounds so interesting. So who's dead?

An actor who was intimately acquainted with the lawyer.

She was once a star who led the Korean Wave fad.

Goodness.

Are you okay?

Are you all right?

My hands were slippery.

No, I got it. You might get hurt.

Goodness.

My goodness.

That could happen.

Hey, stop that. Come on.

Goodness.

Do you think it'll be interesting if they were having an affair?

No, not really.

Really?

But detectives think...

they probably were having an affair.

But a lawyer and an actress wouldn't make a good couple.

It sounds superficial.

You'll only end up writing a story about a lease scam...

or getting involved in a lawsuit against her agency.

Hello?

I'll send you the money soon.

And...

it'll be perfectly taken care of, right?

(Defendant, Plaintiff)

You keep changing it.

Will the defendant accept the plaintiff's request for divorce?

No, never.

The plaintiff had committed an affair,

but the defendant is willing to forgive and save the marriage.

The defendant had been abusive toward the plaintiff.

Now, the latter cannot take it anymore.

Where's your proof?

I'll submit it during the trial.

Do you even have any?

We'll find out...

once the trial begins.

Darn it.

"Violent"?

Does that make any sense?

He knew she was having an affair.

But he cried and begged...

that he didn't want a divorce.

You're only claiming that she had an affair.

You can never judge a man by his appearance.

Just like you.

(Court)

What about me?

Do you know what kind of man he is?

What? What are you trying to say?

National Husband, my foot.

You're a playboy.

- Hey. - Hey.

Move aside.

- He goes out with countless women. - No.

- I... - How many are there?

You're defending the likes of you.

Wait. Sir.

My body tends to get hot often.

So I've been going out a lot...

ever since I was at the training institute.

Yes. That's why my nickname was playboy.

(Plaintiff)

I heard you went to the station because of your wife.

She was only a testifier.

Don't be ridiculous. They requested a warrant for her.

A warrant?

Didn't you know?

Her charges were terrifying.

Abduction, inciting violence, and burying a body.

What? Don't talk nonsense.

She's only interested in writing her novels.

Abduction? Burying a body?

The team leader of the criminal department told me.

You don't have to believe me if you don't want to.

See you at the trial.

The person is unavailable. Your call will be sent...

Don't you think she became a little odd?

You've been...

keeping an eye on her, right?

Yes, they're the best in the field.

No. There's something going on.

I think she has a man.

What's their name again?

Ma'am, come here! We have a 30-percent discount!

We have sirloin and prime ribs.

Honey, do you want the prime ribs as whole...

or chopped?

Whole. I want to chop them myself.

Okay. Bye.

Don't be ridiculous. They requested a warrant for her.

Didn't you know?

Her charges were terrifying.

Abduction, inciting violence, and burying a body.

That's nonsense.

She probably heard wrong.

Gosh.

Here, have some.

Let me feed you.

Okay.

That's okay.

Gosh.

Here.

(Gwak JM Office, CEO's Office)

Hello. You're a bit late.

You came here yourself.

I could've gone to you.

No, I insisted.

I wanted to take a look around your office as well.

By the way,

judging by your interior design,

you must be very thrifty...

despite the hefty sum of money I've given you.

Let me give you this month's report.

He's holding her hand.

He's Professor Lee Mun Gil.

His major is Western painting.

He studied in France.

He has a lover.

That doesn't mean he's safe, does it?

It's a man.

I saw him last month as well.

You won't see him next month.

(Application for Leave of Absence)

After taking time off school,

I'm going to enlist in the army.

Then I won't see Mi Rae ever again.

Thank you...

for your cooperation.

What's his deal?

He seems to be around her often.

Is he okay?

He's dating someone from the same school,

but they're keeping it a secret.

This isn't uncommon if they're in the same major...

or club.

I've never seen this man before.

He's a new face.

He's Lawyer Han Woo Sung.

He's known as the National Husband.

He has a happy marriage life,

so I doubt he'll be a problem.

He's a family guy, so he goes grocery shopping...

She rarely smiles like this.

Something smells fishy.

I'll keep an eye on them.

Please do a good job.

Yes, sir.

(Gwak JM Office)

Right.

Ms. Ko purchased a house today.

A house?

How much was it?

93,000 dollars.

How could a house be that cheap?

That's the price for three houses.

Are they going to redevelop this neighborhood?

This is a greenbelt area.

Why did she purchase the houses?

She's neither living here nor investing in them.

What is this?

Is that a mermaid?

How interesting.

The mermaid is wearing a diving suit.

Why are they changing the main display?

I thought it was the top-selling item of this season.

The season is changing, so they're putting up the new line.

I thought you didn't like japchae.

It's not for me.

Are you uncomfortable with me researching your office?

Why would I be uncomfortable? I'm not hiding anything from you.

If you're not hiding anything from me,

why did you put a passcode on your phone?

It's because of Jin Ho.

He keeps looking at my phone.

Jin Ho does that?

His wife doesn't like it when he plays games on his phone.

So he keeps using my phone to buy things for his game.

I see.

Is that so?

I'm here to do some research,

so don't worry about me.

You can just go about your business.

The main character in her new book is a lawyer.

Sit down. Hurry.

Honey.

Do you have to...

constantly do research?

Why? Are you uncomfortable?

No. I just don't want you to be tired.

I could give you the material, or you could call to ask.

Even if it's tiring, I have to do it to know how lawyers really work.

It's the fate of a writer.

Right. That's the fate of a writer.

Why are you going to the police station again?

Don't be ridiculous. They requested a warrant for her.

There's someone I need to visit.

My goodness.

You should eat slowly.

You must have been very hungry.

Here. Have some water.

(Trustworthy police, safe country, Seodong Police Station)

I'm Kim Duk Gi's lawyer?

I even submitted the paperwork under your name...

because the police won't let me meet him.

Why would you do that without discussing it with me first?

I was in a rush, so I didn't think about that. I'm sorry.

You just need to ask him a couple of questions.

This will help you.

When I first saw you, I was very surprised.

I don't look as good as I do on TV, right?

It's because I put on makeup before I go on TV.

I saw you often in person too.

Where?

At Soo Jung's place.

Peekaboo.

Oh, my. Crystal Baek.

That lawyer is married.

I know.

I know. Everyone knows. He's the National Husband.

Then why are you seeing him?

Who are you to meddle with my personal life?

Whether or not a scandal breaks out, I'll take care of it. Let go.

- My gosh. Seriously. - Let go.

Let go of me!

I'm going to meet him. He told me he was coming!

Why did you have an affair with Soo Jung?

You must be mistaken.

I met Soo Jung for work.

I can't tell Ms. Kang Yeo Joo, right?

She'll find out eventually.

You were caught on the CCTV.

I saw it. It was saved on the flash drive.

(My Love)

(My Love)

Did you ask him if he has the CCTV footage?

The one filmed at Baek Soo Jung's place. Does he have it?

Where is that flash drive?

Well...

Are you sure I was caught on it?

Yes.

Do you have indigestion?

I think so.

Mr. Kim. Mr. Kim!

Mr. Kim. Mr. Kim!

Mr. Kim!

Hey. Over here.

- Move out of the way. - Hold on.

- Are you okay? - He can't breathe.

- Mr. Kim! - Mr. Kim!

- Wake up! - Hold on.

Stay still!

Mr. Kim!

- Mr. Kim! - Mr. Kim! Wake up!

(Cheat On Me, If You Can)

A suspect died in the police station.

If you want to reduce your sentence,

make a confession. A confession!

She probably planned everything to turn Han Woo Sung into a culprit.

It's her revenge for his affair.

That's the kind of story she'd work with.

They either get killed or get blamed for a murder.

No, he has nothing to do with this.

He just helped me out.

Leave quietly.

You're the only one I need to say goodbye to.

Okay. I never saw anything.

Yeo Joo, aren't you worried?

It's a great experience for him as a lawyer.

He'll be released soon if he's innocent.
