(Episode 4)

You're here.

What are you doing? Why are you here?

What are you doing with all the lights off?

Is Ms. Jin not here?

Don't turn the lights on.

I can't wait any longer.

Seok Hoon, let me know that you love me tonight.

What do you think you're doing?

Joo Seok Hoon! How can you leave like that?

What do you think you're doing?

Our contract states that we study together...

and share our tutor. That's all.

If you're going to be like this,

let's not study together anymore.

Don't ever call me here again.

Just promise me one thing.

That you won't fall for Ro Na.

Ro Na and I...

are not together anymore.

It's old news.

- Did I keep you waiting for long? - No, I came early.

I got the wine recommended. Do you want the same one?

Sounds good.

How's the hotel? I rented it for a long time.

You can come whenever you need a break.

Even better if you want to come with me.

Thank you. What a surprise.

The view is amazing and this is so cozy.

There's one more surprise.

Come.

What is it?

You seemed to like Designer Baek's dresses,

so I got a few custom-made ones.

You can wear them to your performances this year.

I'll get you new dresses next year.

Why aren't you looking?

What do you think? Do you like them?

Yes, they're beautiful.

Why don't you wear this one for the luncheon?

I put special care into customizing this one.

I'm so touched.

When did you prepare all of this?

I'm happy that you're happy.

Shall we throw a toast?

We can relax and drink until tomorrow.

What should I do?

I think I should get going.

What do you mean?

My mom...

says that she isn't feeling well. I can't shake her off my mind.

Is she not feeling very well?

That's why you seem so anxious.

You're shaking right now.

I don't think it's anything serious.

I need to go.

Okay. Let's go.

You look pale. I'll give you a lift.

No. I can drive myself.

I'll get going then.

Let me know how Mother's doing.

Did you come back? To see me?

What are you up to? What do you want?

How did you know I was here?

Did you follow me?

Calm down.

I wondered why you came back.

It was obvious...

that conniving witch Yoon Hee was using you to get back at me.

Do you not see that or are you pretending not to?

Let me talk first.

You still have feelings for me, don't you?

That's why you brought Yoon Hee...

and her daughter to provoke me.

Do you think that will work?

Do you really think...

I'll leave everything I have and go back to you?

That is so you, Yoon Chul.

Did you just laugh?

Sure. That would be fun,

if I'm putting on an act just to get you back.

But sorry.

I feel bad for disappointing you and for your wild imagination,

but I love Yoon Hee.

I guess it really bothered you that I came back.

I thought you were happy with Joo Dan Tae,

but I guess not.

Just tell me why you're here at this hotel.

Why did you do that to me in New York?

What do you mean?

I don't remember anything.

- Even now? - What's wrong with you?

I had a meeting at the hotel,

and I saw you in the lobby.

I wanted to confirm...

whether New York was a mistake.

And I did confirm that it was a mistake.

That's all.

Your feelings for Yoon Hee are real.

You expect me to believe that?

I don't care if you don't.

What's for sure is,

you are no longer in my heart.

So please be careful from now on.

That jerk.

Don't show your face again if you don't want to die.

That's what I want as well.

(Get lost murderer)

You're just a murderer's daughter.

I'll make you pay, Ro Na.

Hey! What are you doing here?

Did you do this?

Just look the other way...

unless you're with the murderer.

That... That rude brat. Look at how she talks to an adult.

(Get lost murderer)

Why are you home so late?

Did you hide treasure in Min Hyuk's home or something?

Something like that.

Why are you still up?

I waited up to talk to you.

Can it wait until tomorrow?

I had a drink, so I'm sleepy.

What is it?

Never mind. I'll tell you another time.

Okay. Sorry.

I'm going to bed then, okay?

- I love you, princess. - Me too.

- What is it? - Ro Na came back to the school.

Ms. Cheon re-enrolled her.

She permitted her re-enrollment.

Ro Na is a murderer's daughter.

It drives me mad already living in the same building,

but I have to go to the same school too?

If you have time to get upset like this,

why don't you prepare for Cheong A Art Festival?

Other kids can get in by their talent, but you...

Forget Seoul University of Music. You can't get into...

any decent college in Seoul without the principal's recommendation.

You're a moron who can't even take the midterms...

unless I get you the answer sheet ahead of time.

You don't expect me to buy the CSAT answer sheet, do you?

What will you give me...

if I win the grand prize trophy?

Anything you want.

- I want to move out. - Move out?

Living with Eun Byeol makes me sick.

I want to move out once I get into college.

I have an apartment in my name anyway.

You'll move out.

Fine.

I'll think about it if you bring home the trophy.

I promise.

I'll do whatever it takes...

to bring home the Cheong A Art Festival trophy.

Is this how you were being treated?

You came back for this?

I won't change my mind.

Go back to the US.

Don't even think about moving in here.

I'm...

going to live here.

Says who?

I told her to come.

What are you thinking?

Come in, Ro Na.

You must be tired.

I got your room ready. Come in. Watch your step.

Let's do our best.

Remember there's always someone on your side whenever you look back.

I'll always cheer you on. Mr. Ha.

(Bae Ro Na's re-enrollment has been approved.)

Did you ever meet Seol A?

No.

Not even once.

Mr. Lee.

My mom...

did that to Seol A because of me.

I kept throwing a tantrum and bugged my mom every day...

that I wanted to go to Cheong A Arts High School.

So...

please hate me.

Please don't hate my mom too much.

Whenever I saw you at Cheong A,

I was reminded of Seol A.

She sang very well like you.

Singing was her dream.

The first day she met Cheon Seo Jin, she called me.

Anna Lee, correct?

Yes. Please just call me "Anna".

I met Ms. Cheon Seo Jin for the first time,

and I was so nervous that my mind went blank.

So I didn't get to say the stuff I had prepared.

That I'm her huge fan.

She was much more beautiful in person,

so I must've been in shock.

I saw a photo of her singing,

and my heart pounded so hard.

I suddenly desperately wanted to sing.

I imagined learning under her at Cheong A,

and singing a beautiful song on stage.

And win Cheong A Art Festival's Grand Prize trophy.

Just by imagining those things, I became so happy.

If I had a mother,

would I have been able to sing?

(Bae Ro Na)

Seol A.

I'll make your dream come true on your behalf.

I'll win Cheong A Art Festival's Grand Prize trophy...

no matter what.

After that,

I'll never sing again.

What are you talking about?

She should, of course, come back home.

She's too young to be in the US alone.

So you signed a parent consent form...

without talking to me first?

Ro Na contacted me directly and asked me. I couldn't say no.

Yoon Hee, why are you against it?

I really don't understand you.

Ro Na can't be here.

Don't you know what kind of place Cheong A Arts High School is?

Cheon Seo Jin won't leave her alone.

Don't worry about that.

Ro Na.

I just got a text saying that I've been re-enrolled.

I'm going to school.

Ro Na, wait for me.

I'm going to work. Don't skip breakfast.

- Wait... - Ro Na!

Ro Na.

Let's go.

Ro Na, here. You didn't have breakfast, right?

Thank you.

Thank you for the necklace too.

I like it.

- Mr. Ha. - Yes?

Be nice to my mom.

I want at least you...

to be nice to her.

Ro Na, wait for me.

This is so annoying.

Come to my office. It's urgent.

What's going on? You said it was something urgent.

Do you remember Reporter Son Hyung Jin of Simin Daily?

He's famous for his critical articles about me.

Did he publish another problematic story?

He just got in touch with me.

(Is Joo Dan Tae and Cheon Seo Jin's Wedding Called Off?)

(Rumors about Cheon Seo Jin's Secret Lover)

Reporter Son is planning to publish these articles today.

What happened?

Didn't you tell me you were going to your mother last night?

Well, the thing is...

I went back to my room to get my wallet...

and ran into someone on my way out.

It was someone I'd never met before.

He was drunk and tried to hit on me, but I pushed him away and left.

These articles are complete nonsense.

Do you expect me to believe that?

Since when do you keep secrets from me?

You lied to me and went to see another man.

Deny it if you can.

Who is he? Who did you meet last night?

I already told you that I don't know him!

Do I have to explain about a drunk man who bumped into me?

You don't know him?

Secretary Cho, come in.

Who is the guy?

We're still trying to find out because the pictures are blurry.

- Did you contact the hotel? - I asked for the CCTV footage,

but they refused for privacy reasons.

Instead of giving me such a lame answer,

go find him right now!

The word must have already leaked out.

Our stock plummeted today.

I'll give you an hour.

Bring him in front of me.

Stop!

Secretary Cho, you may leave.

I already denied it.

Shouldn't you believe whatever I say?

I can't sort this out unless you tell me the truth.

That leech would do whatever to publish those articles.

But we should at least try to make a deal.

That's not necessary. I can take care of it.

The situation is not to be underestimated.

I said I can take care of it.

You're lashing out without giving me a chance to explain.

I don't like it.

I have to get back to school.

Pick up, Yoon Chul.

Pick up, you jerk.

The person you have reached is unavailable.

Eun Byeol.

Did you know?

Don't your mom have more power than this?

Is she really so weak that she had to re-enroll Ro Na?

Watch your mouth. I'm just as annoyed as you are.

We all have one more competitor now, you idiot.

Can you do as I say?

We have to kick that girl out of this school.

You and I are a team now.

How about we fight together...

against our shared enemy?

Why didn't you pick up...

You're here. Why are you out of breath?

Is it something urgent?

What are you doing here?

Back to our conversation.

I'm waiting for your answer.

Who did I meet last night?

Why do you want to know that?

Just answer my question.

The man in these pictures is you, right?

That's a rather strange question.

To me, it sounds like you already know the answer.

Yes, I did meet Seo Jin.

Do you expect your fiancee to report everything she does to you?

It was late.

And you were at a hotel.

We just ran into each other by chance.

Don't you think these pictures look a little contrived?

Don't tell me you're doubting Seo Jin.

Is everything all right between you two?

That's it.

You got your answer, so leave. You've humiliated me enough.

Maybe I should have just walked past my ex-wife without saying hi.

My bad.

It must be tough for you.

Having to deal with such an oversensitive fiance.

In today's world,

even silly rumors can cause stocks to crash.

Are you sure that rumors are to blame?

Is your company all right?

Ha Yoon Chul.

I'm sorry if I was out of line.

I said that out of concern.

I lied to him because I didn't want him to get the wrong idea.

Anyway, thank you.

Reporter Son Hyung Jin of Simin Daily, right?

I'll explain to him.

I didn't do this for you. It was for Eun Byeol.

We can't hurt her again with things between you and me.

Mr. Ha, everyone is waiting. Do you want me to cancel the meeting?

No. Let them in.

From now on, I don't want us to meet privately.

Yoon Hee wouldn't like it.

Well then.

You couldn't trust me?

You made me apologize to Yoon Chul for your behavior!

I thought our relationship was more than this.

You should have told me that you met Ha Yoon Chul.

Why did you have to complicate things by lying?

It's because you overreact to everything.

I didn't want to fight.

It was to protect you.

I had to stop such ridiculous rumors.

Legally, we have nothing to do with each other.

Disappoint me again, and I'll...

seriously reconsider our relationship.

Both our merger...

and marriage.

Cheon Seo Jin.

This is the last time you can get cute with me.

Did your daughter get back safely?

You knew that Ro Na was back in Korea.

Why didn't you tell me?

It was Logan's order to not tell anyone.

You said you'd protect Ro Na.

You promised you wouldn't let her near Korea.

Didn't you also break your promise?

What do you mean?

Logan must've told you...

to find Seok Kyung's birth mother.

How can I find someone...

who even you guys couldn't find?

You should've approached Joo Dan Tae.

He'd know where she is.

Why are you looking for Seok Kyung's birth mother?

You'll find out...

when we find her.

(J King Holdings)

I guess the scandal was quite a hit.

Chairman Joo seems like he's quite shaken.

Don't you think so,

Reporter Song?

It was quite good for a one-man act.

Well...

I put in quite a lot.

Okay.

Cheon Seo Jin and Joo Dan Tae,

I'll make sure that I separate you two.

I'll make you two loathe each other.

(Cheong A Arts High School)

Attention!

As announced,

today's the preliminary audition for the Cheong A Art Festival.

Since it's a school event that will help with college admissions,

I'm going to make sure...

that every part of the process is...

done completely fairly.

The preliminary round will have two students pair up...

by a random draw and have them compete.

I'll now begin the draw.

(Cheong A Arts High School Classical Singing Preliminaries)

Group One is...

An Eun Woo.

- Why am I in Group 1? - Next, in Group 2,

Joo Seok Kyung.

And going against Joo Seok Kyung will be...

(Yoo Jenny, Bae Ro Na)

(Yoo Jenny)

Yoo Jenny.

We're in the same group.

(Joo Seok Kyung, Yoo Jenny)

Group Three.

(Ha Eun Byeol)

Ha Eun Byeol.

Ha Eun Byeol will go against...

Bae Ro Na.

- What? - Really?

The two are going against each other in the preliminary round?

I guess so.

It's like a preview of the finals.

These are the groups.

Next, the song for the preliminary round is...

("Serenade" by Schubert)

"Serenade" by Schubert.

The preliminary round will begin in two hours,

so get your practice until then.

That's all.

Hello, Chairman Joo. It's me, Ma Doo Ki.

I've done as you've requested.

You took care of it well, right?

As requested, Eun Byeol and Ro Na are in the same group together,

meaning that one of them will get eliminated.

That's one less rival for Seok Kyung.

There's a chance that Eun Byeol might get eliminated?

That's right, sir!

Also, I've already talked...

to the judges.

Great work.

Please keep up the good work until the finals.

If Seok Kyung wins,

you'll get a reward...

that's different from any that you've received so far.

It's not like I'm doing this for anything in return,

but thank you.

I'll do my best to make sure...

that you get your way.

Yoo Jenny. Bring that right now.

Headshot!

What are you doing?

Red looks good on you, Ro Na.

Must be because your mother is a murderer.

The case is already closed!

My mom was proven innocent,

and the real murderer was caught.

Why do you keep saying that my mom is a murderer?

Shut it!

Your mom is the one who killed my mom.

You'll forever be a murderer's daughter.

Is this...

because you feel sorry for your mom?

What?

Are you bullying me because you feel guilty...

for not having been good to your mom?

Does this make you feel better?

What are you doing?

Bae Ro Na! What happened?

The preliminary round is starting soon.

How can you be messing around?

That's not it.

Go to the bathroom and wash up.

Your uniform will stain.

You don't have much time, so just wash up quickly.

Everyone, get to the auditorium.

Goodness.

I'll help you. Come on up.

(Cheong A Arts High School)

Quick!

What are you two doing here?

My goodness.

You haven't gone yet?

We're heading to the preliminaries.

It's tomorrow for the piano majors, right?

Did you get a lot of practice?

Yes. I'm heading to my lesson right now.

Good luck.

Thank you.

Take the blouse off. I'll wash it for you.

It's fine. I'll do it.

We don't have time.

The preliminaries are starting soon.

You can clean your skirt.

Thank you.

We should just go. You're going to be late too.

Jenny? What are you doing?

Excuse me! Please open the door!

The door is locked!

It's no use.

Nobody is coming.

You and I are being bullied.

Did you know from the start?

That's the rule at Cheong A Arts High School.

The rule that Seok Kyung and Eun Byeol made.

If you help the one being bullied,

you'll get bullied as well.

Didn't you know?

(Cheong A Arts High School Preliminaries Group One)

(The 28th Cheong A Arts High School Classical Singing Preliminaries)

(Director Cheon Seo Jin)

Next, Group Two. Joo Seok Kyung.

(The 28th Cheong A Arts High School Classical Singing Preliminaries)

Yoo Jenny.

Where's Yoo Jenny?

Jenny and Ro Na aren't here.

What? They're still not here?

What should we do, Director?

Should we wait for them?

Let's see the other groups first.

We should at least give them a chance.

(The 28th Cheong A Arts High School Classical Singing Preliminaries)

What are you doing?

Get out of my way. I won't let them take me down.

I won't lose to them!

It's no use!

Let go!

Yoo Jenny!

(Cheong A Arts High School)

Get out already. We don't have much time.

What are you doing?

That's all the groups.

It wouldn't be fair to wait for them any longer.

By default, why don't we pass...

Seok Kyung and Eun Byeol instead?

- What? - Nice!

I guess we have no choice.

We'll eliminate Yoo Jenny and Bae Ro Na.

Joo Seok Kyung and Ha Eun Byeol are going to the next round.

I'm here.

I'm not late, am I?

That's too bad. Time's up.

You've just been eliminated.

Please let me sing.

It's not over yet.

Being on time is the key in tests.

This is a consequence of not being on time.

Accept it.

Someone locked me in the bathroom...

on purpose.

Who would do that?

Joo Seok Kyung, Ha Eun Byeol.

Why did you do that? Tell me.

Were you that insecure about your singing?

Were you that scared about me going to the finals?

Bae Ro Na! What are you doing?

I won't give you a chance just because you do this.

I'm serious. Please believe me.

How can you prove it?

Jenny was with me.

Jenny is a witness.

She's lying!

What's happening?

Ro Na said that we should pretend to be locked in the bathroom...

because we can't beat the girls with our skills,

and that we have to frame them as bullies...

to go to the finals.

She locked me in the bathroom and didn't let me out.

Did you plot all of this on your own?

Ro Na, are you insane?

Jenny, why are you doing this?

Are you done?

Yes.

Jenny, we are in the same group, right?

How can you be so unlucky?

I guess your ticket to the finals is already gone.

You're not going to try hard...

to beat me, are you?

Don't be scared.

We're here to help you.

There's one way that you can make it to the finals.

What is it?

Just prove to us...

that you're our friend, not Ro Na's.

Then, you'll make it to the finals,

and you won't be bullied.

We can let you into the SNU Club too.

What do you think?

Ro Na! Are you seriously that dirty?

How can you plot all of this even if this is important?

What a terrible person you are.

Yoo Jenny. Are you speaking the truth?

Can we count on your words?

Yes, you can.

No, she's lying.

I didn't do such a thing.

I was the one who was locked. I'm the victim here!

Mr. Ma, with the authority as the Director,

I'll send Bae Ro Na to the disciplinary committee.

Any insulting behavior against Cheong A Arts Festival...

cannot be forgiven.

Please punish her...

according to the school's rules.

Go and tell them that I didn't do it.

That they made you do this.

Were you in on their plot too?

Were you one of them all along?

Why? Why can't I be?

Do you know what I've been through because of you?

I've been bullied and cursed at instead of you!

Just because I bought you some bread.

Just because I said that I feel sorry for you once!

So, shouldn't you take one for me too?

I have to make it to Seoul National University...

as I've been through so much for it.

College is the only way out of this nightmare.

So,

you're saying that it's okay for me to be expelled again?

I was never a kind person.

Get up.

When did you come?

I watched everything that happened to you and Jenny.

I know you hate me,

but you need my help right now.

I'll make sure that you can still attend this school.

A bully?

Min Hyuk is the one with the broken arm here.

How dare they blame him?

Nonsense!

Ro Na's mom is a lunatic.

That's not the important thing.

Because of Ro Na,

my Jenny got eliminated from the preliminaries. How can it be?

We need to have a parents' meeting and make sure they suffer.

A bully?

You!

You should've just quietly backed off if you were insecure.

Why did you bring my innocent Jenny into this?

You got my Jenny eliminated too. What are you going to do?

How dare you come back here...

and ruin everything?

I didn't do anything!

Calm down.

We're going to get blamed if you keep acting out.

How can I calm down?

"Participated in the finals of the Cheong A Arts Festival."

You know how important that is for student records.

This girl stripped that chance away from Jenny!

Jenny is resilient.

She can do well on the CSAT and still go to college.

Ms. Cheon, please give Jenny a chance.

She was unfairly stripped of her chance.

Shouldn't you give her a chance?

Do you even care about Jenny?

What is she saying?

Are you still insane?

Tell them the truth!

Get your hands off of my daughter!

Ro Na!

Are you okay? Are you hurt?

How can an adult do that to a child?

Don't you realize that this is abuse?

How can all of you just sit and watch child abuse happen?

If you lay a finger on our Ro Na one more time,

I'm going to sue you all.

You sure love law enforcement.

But...

you can't deny the law of genetics.

A criminal mom bred a bully. This is just great.

This is why I say the family matters.

You nobodies with no roots.

Shut your mouth!

Hit me. If you want to end up in jail.

That will suit you right.

That's enough!

Please act accordingly with the prestige of Hera Palace.

Everyone take your seat.

Seriously.

Ro Na. Who are the school's bullies?

Joo Seok Kyung.

Lee Min Hyuk.

And Ha Eun Byeol.

What?

Do you have proof that you were assaulted?

She has no proof.

She's making it all up so she doesn't get expelled.

That's what you call making a false accusation.

Do you know how serious it is to make a false accusation?

My daughter is here as a victim, not as an assailant.

Shouldn't you listen to the victim first?

(Director Cheon Seo Jin)

Ro Na. Go on, tell them.

Today, Joo Seok Kyung filled a bucket with water and paint...

and poured it on me.

While I was washing up,

she intentionally locked me and Jenny in the bathroom.

Ro Na. Your dream must be to become a novelist.

Ha Eun Byeol and Lee Min Hyuk watched on,

but they did nothing to stop her.

No one saw it and no one said they did it.

Why should we believe you?

It's your word against theirs.

The kids are lying.

If the assailants deny it,

is there no victim?

Ma'am. You can't believe just what your child says...

and post such a serious lie...

on the Office of Education website.

Post a correction and apologize officially.

If you don't, be prepared to face a criminal charge.

The school isn't interested at all in uncovering the truth anyway.

Also,

the disciplinary committee has already decided...

to forcibly transfer Bae Ro Na for tainting the image of the school...

and trying to turn students against each other.

As all the teachers have consented,

we will process it expeditiously.

I understand.

If you insist on denying it, you give me no choice.

I will submit a formal complaint with the Office of Education.

Are you mad?

You're not calling anyone!

Are you trying to keep our kids from going to college?

- Let go. - You should apologize.

How shameless!

- How dare you touch her? - Is this why you came?

Honey! Call the cops on her!

Fine! Tell the Office of Education!

I'll tell the reporters...

- and take this up officially. - Get off.

You jerk.

How dare you threaten us?

Stop it, Mom!

Jenny! I'm glad you're here.

Tell them everything she did to you.

Make this brat stop lying.

She's not lying.

What Ro Na said...

was all true.

What?

What? Are you saying Min Hyuk is a bully?

You'd better think carefully before you speak.

Did... Did Ro Na threaten you?

You little witch.

What did you do to my innocent daughter?

I said to stop!

I'm the one who was bullied!

For a year, I was beaten up and cursed at.

I'm the one who was bullied.

I'm an outcast just like Ro Na.

You don't know anything! So stop it!

Outcast?

What do you mean? Why?

Why were you bullied?

- Oh my gosh. - Goodness.

What... What's wrong with your hair?

How long has it been this way?

How long has it been?

Who was it?

Who did this to you?

Who was it?

Who did this to my daughter?

Tell me!

This is Jenny's medical record I got from the hospital today.

She has suffered from...

stress-induced hair loss and reflux esophagitis for a while.

Jenny won't betray us, will she?

Definitely not.

She has to do as we say...

if she wants to compete at Cheong A Art Festival.

What's the point in making it to the festival?

She won't win anyway.

Isn't it better to frame her as Ro Na's accomplice?

How dare she try to go to Seoul University of Music?

Darn it. This is a secret.

You know Jenny's mom lied about going to Ehwa University.

For real?

My mom's the alumni chair of Ewha's School of Communication.

She looked into it,

and Jenny's mom wasn't on the list of Home Economics grads.

Did she lie about her education?

No wonder. She was so obviously ignorant.

Even the way she speaks is so cheap.

She's a total outcast in Hera Palace, isn't she?

That's why she was close to Ro Na. Birds of a feather.

Birds of a feather flock together. It's scientifically proven.

Maybe her designer bags are knockoffs.

It must be so hard to act rich when they're poor.

Will you just keep being bullied?

Let go of me.

I've reported it to the Office of Education...

that you were assaulted by school bullies.

So you should let it out too.

Why did you do it?

Who gave you the right?

I said I didn't want to. I said no!

At least your mom needs to know.

If she finds out later,

she'll feel worse and even more heartbroken.

I personally recorded this today.

What was that?

Ro Na did nothing wrong.

I lied.

My gosh.

We'll post this...

on the Office of Education's website...

as evidence of school violence.

Seok Kyung. What were you thinking? How could you do this?

A bully at Cheong A?

Do you know how serious this is?

Sorry.

I got too upset.

No. Seok Kyung was wrong.

I think Ro Na's family is determined.

They already reported it to the Office of Education.

The investigators will come tomorrow.

If what happened to Jenny gets out too,

things will blow up to be much worse.

Sorry. You'll have to fix this for us.

Apologize to her this instant!

I only did as Eun Byeol told me.

I may be the only one in the video, but Eun Byeol was next to me.

It was her idea to throw the paint on her...

and to lock her in the bathroom.

It's the truth.

Putting the blame on Eun Byeol is going too far.

I'm disappointed.

I heard you did it although Eun Byeol tried to stop you.

Did she say that? That she tried to stop me?

That's what all the kids said.

That you led the bullying of Jenny too.

Eun Byeol brought all the foods...

that we fed Jenny.

Why are you only protecting her?

I see. She gets preferential treatment.

You said we were family.

Was it all a lie?

That's enough!

You should repent! How dare you accuse her?

Why don't you believe me?

She weaseled out by herself?

Ha Eun Byeol.

Be careful until you get into the Seoul National University.

This is the most crucial time.

With school violence in your student record,

you'll have to forget about early admission.

Get your act together.

An assemblyman's son shouldn't get involved in school violence.

Lie low from now on...

and pin everything on Seok Kyung.

Answer me.

Gosh, I know how to handle it.

Who is it at this hour?

Who is it?

Oh, my.

What's wrong?

- Ms. Kang, what are you doing? - Give that to me.

What's going on? Why are you taking away my son's phone?

- Start. - Let's go.

- What are you waiting for? - Drink it.

You look the prettiest when you're drinking soda.

Drink faster.

Ms. Kang, you're scaring me.

Get off me!

Ms. Kang, calm down.

Think of our friendship.

You need to calm down.

Kids fight all the time.

It's not a big deal.

Shut it, you jerk.

What...

Is she out of her mind?

Gosh, I was so close to capturing the castle.

This is not okay.

That woman is out of line.

Seok Kyung! Open the door!

- Open it! - What's wrong, ma'am?

- Calm down. - Get out of my way!

- Where is Seok Kyung? - Please calm down.

- Ma'am. - Move.

- Seok Kyung! Where is she? - Calm down, ma'am.

- Get off me. - Ma'am.

I said, get off me!

What's going on? It's still early.

How can you be sleeping? Go apologize to Jenny right now.

Why? I didn't do anything wrong.

She is the one who betrayed me and sided with Ro Na.

- That turncoat. - Shut it, Seok Kyung!

Have you lost your mind?

Who gives you the right to hit me? Who do you think you are?

Does that hurt? Get your act together.

I can't put up with you anymore.

At least pretend to be sorry,

or I'll blow up the whole penthouse, okay?

What is going on here?

You need to raise your daughter better, Mr. Joo.

Are you lecturing me now?

Are you in the position to?

I won't let this slide.

I'll make sure she can't enter Cheong A Art Festival...

and is punished,

whether she is expelled or transferred.

You want the daughter of the head of operations transferred?

I don't think that's possible.

Our contract ended today.

We're even.

I don't owe you anything anymore.

Do you want me to reveal what you did to my husband,

which you tried to cover up...

by giving me an apartment?

I don't think it's a good idea to bring that up, Ms. Kang.

It was for Jenny's sake that my husband took the fall...

and went to prison instead of you.

To give our daughter a good life.

And your daughter ripped her heart to pieces.

Nothing can stop me now.

I don't know how far I'll go.

Be prepared. I might even...

kill your daughter, Seok Kyung.

You're out of your mind.

What? Do you think it serves me right?

I know you think it's only fair.

You're enjoying this, aren't you?

Yes.

I wonder if you finally understand me.

What?

When your child is bullied,

you become so frustrated and upset...

that your body shakes...

and your blood boils.

You can neither sleep...

nor eat.

You want to destroy everyone.

You can't understand it until you've experienced it.

I've been there.

I'm being punished now, right?

Because of me, Ro Na was called by the school violence committee.

I hit, insulted,

and bullied the innocent girl.

I'm being punished for that now.

I've been a terrible parent.

It's all my fault, Ms. Oh.

Save your energy.

For now,

be strong and focus on protecting Jenny.

Feel free to tell me if I can help you with anything.

If you fall apart, it's over.

Jenny has no one else to rely on.

I'm... I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, Ms. Oh.

I'm so sorry.

(Cheong A Arts High School)

(Director Cheon Seo Jin)

Jenny's mother is asking the school violence committee to step in.

Once the Office of Education starts investigating,

things will get quite complicated...

with Ro Na and Jenny's incidents and everything.

To protect the school,

someone will have to take the fall.

Put up a notice.

(Disciplinary Committee's Decision)

(Joo Seok Kyung: Probation and disqualification from Art Festival)

(Yoo Jenny and Bae Ro Na: Participation in Art Festival)

Probation? This is insane.

Is this your mom's doing?

Ha Eun Byeol. So you ran away?

(Joo Seok Hoon)

You're the one who got me out of the bathroom, right?

Why didn't you reply to me?

I sent you an e-mail.

I was busy.

I know you're going through a lot,

but you don't have to feel uncomfortable around me.

I wanted to know how you were doing.

Both in the US and when I got back.

What about you?

Did you ever think about me?

What are you doing over there?

Nothing.

Hey. Eun Byeol!

Gosh, what was the pattern?

Was it "J"?

Yes.

I'm the only one being disciplined?

Not a chance.

Eun Byeol. I'll tell the world who your boyfriend is.

- Let go! - Please!

Let go!

Let go! Oh no.

What is this?

Seok Kyung! It was you, wasn't it?

You took my phone.

Why did you steal my phone?

I didn't steal it.

You dropped it,

so I planned to return it to you.

Did you look through my phone?

I don't know your lock pattern.

Why? Are you hiding something big?

She didn't see it, did she?

Why are you here?

You said I was your daughter too.

Can't a daughter visit her mom to hang out?

I'm busy.

Say what it is and leave.

I have many documents to review.

Cheong A Art Festival is in a few days.

I've waited really long for it.

What dress should I wear?

I'm so excited.

The notice should be up by now.

The teachers decided today...

to disqualify you from entering.

What you did was too heinous.

It was out of my hands.

Don't make jokes.

My dad asked you, remember?

Just let me compete.

You're the director. You have the power.

Oh dear. Did I surprise you?

I was imitating Eun Byeol.

I don't need to respond anymore, right?

Since you're being nice anyway,

how about you give me the grand prize?

- What? - If you truly love my dad,

you can do that much for me.

Are you kidding me?

You have no skills. How could you ask for the grand prize?

You know...

I can't beat Eun Byeol with my skills.

That's why I'm being shameless and asking you for this favor.

Must I call your dad for you to shut your mouth?

Get out.

Now.

You'll regret it if you act like that.

I know a pretty big secret,

lady.

What?

When Director Cheon Myung Soo passed away,

you were on the staircase with him.

Why did you just run away?

Instead of saving your dad?

What did you just say?

You must've been shocked.

Okay, then. Shall we restart our discussion?

(The Penthouse 2)

I hear you're stepping down as director. Is it true?

Even if you hate me,

how could you attack me with Yoon Hee?

You must have many enemies on top of me, Seo Jin.

You must beat Ro Na.

Even if you must kill her.

No matter what anyone says, you're my only daughter, Eun Byeol.

Then prove that I'm your only daughter.

The recipient of the Grand Prize, given to the singer...

who has the most-divine voice, is...

Did you want the grand prize that badly?

Is everything set for me to win the grand prize?

Seok Kyung.

I won't let anyone take Cheong A from me.
