Let's go.

Jun-hyeok, you eat such rustic food.

Rustic?

I'm sorry we couldn't
serve you something better.

It's fine. I'm just glad that
this isn't the emergency room.

- Enjoy.
- Thanks.

Thanks.

Jun-hyeok, I've always wondered.
Why do you do that?

This? You cover the brand name
when you pour.

Old manners from my prosecutor days.
My seniors were very strict.

Oh.

It seemed stupid at first.

I thought they were making
a big deal out of nothing.

- It is nothing.
- Maybe not.

But they use such manners to
show that they have hegemony.

That's an exaggeration.

And I don't care about such things.

Have you ever been to
the Majang-dong Meat Market?

My dad took me there when I was young.

They'd sell pork hock in big iron pots.

Have you ever tried boiled pig tail?

Pig tail? You eat that?

It's a delicacy only
true pork-lovers know about.

I have a question.

Why did you assume that
I wouldn't eat such foods?

Well…

Why did you think I wouldn't
eat such lowbrow and common foods?

What was your logic?

It's because you are acutely aware
of society's status quo.

You just don't want to admit it.

That's why you despise

the etiquette practiced
by those in power.

But Dong-min, the sad thing is

that those who are in power

don't give a thing about what you think.

Why? Because you are not a threat to them.

They recognize that.

So if you want what you think
to truly matter,

you have to earn the recognition
of those who have power.

It's… quite ironic, isn't it?

Here.

Have a drink.

Cheers.

Come with me, Yi-seol.

Take that bandage off.

You should take it off
since it's wet.

Let me see.

It's almost healed.
You won't need ointment.

Why are you doing this?

You could have been

in serious trouble
if things had gone south.

Just play along.

I have to do this.

You said you were on my side.

[ARTIFICIAL CITY]

Good work.

This isn't for you, so just take it.

Take your staff out to dinner.

Thank you, sir.

If only I hadn't heard that

No Yeong-ju gave birth to a kid,

then, I would have tried
to stand my ground.

Things went awry

just because of the money.

Nowadays, my knees are killing me.

Jeong-ho, you should have gotten
to the bottom of things.

You only found out half the truth.

The kid's not No Yeong-ju's.

It belongs to the girl
Yeong-ju was rooming with.

Was it because of the child?

Was that why you wanted to make
Jae-hui and Jun-hyeok get divorced?

What were you going to do
after the divorce?

What?

You're asking me if

I wanted to become Jun-hyeok's wife?

You think I wanted to

steal Mrs. Yun's husband
and find my child, is that it?

Is that the kind of person you think I am?

I don't care what
your true intentions were.

You won't be able to
bring back your child.

Your child died two years go.

Why did you marry such a man?

You should have married a man
who would never do such a thing.

You're a good person.

And I had a child.

Can't you just divorce him?

Please stop.

It's all over now.

No.

It's only the beginning.

There's no reason for me to hesitate.

What are you going to do?

You shouldn't involve Jae-hui

in a matter that's
between you and Jun-hyeok.

What difference will it make
if you tell Jae-hui everything?

Will you help me?

If you promise

- that you'll leave quietly.
- If you won't help,

then don't interfere.

Yi-seol!

Yi-seol!

[WE HOPE THE REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT
IS A SUCCESS!]

How likely

is it for a man

to be unable to remember
the face of a woman he slept with?

Or,

was I too stupid to notice it?

Jae-hui,

it's not your fault.

What the hell.

Did you know about this?

Don't try to understand it

or do anything to resolve the situation.

Since when?

Since when did you know about it?

First, take a seat.

I'll explain it to you.

Why did you pretend you didn't know?

How could you do this to me?

How could you betray me like this?

- Congratulations, Dong-min.
- Thank you.

- Congratulations.
- Thanks.

- Thank you!
- Dong-min!

"Excellence in reporting."

"Han Dong-min of JBC."

This is fantastic.

What are you preparing
for your next story?

I'm going to report on the real estate
speculation of government officials.

I'm getting so many leads.

It seems that lots of people
are angry about it.

Now,

Dong-min will replace Jun-hyeok

as the star of our newsroom.

I wouldn't dare presume…

Why not?

You have a passionate
sense of responsibility

and you're not too bad
to look at, either.

Will you please stop, director?

Laughing?

What's so funny?

Get to work, now!

Get me a story.

Hey! Where do you think you're going?

Come over here!

[KIM YI-SEOL]

The phone you dialed turned off.
Please leave a message…

Serendipity.

That's the perfect word
to describe this situation.

It's perfect timing

for the Minister of Land scandal.

Korean reporters

are quite excellent, aren't they?

This could be the source
of unnecessary misunderstandings.

It would be a travesty

if people begin to suspect

that Prosecutor General Cho
and Mr. Jung Jun-hyeok are in cahoots.

That's...

That seems like an unnecessary concern.

Who in the world knows

that we're behind the investigation
into Minister Park?

Unless,

the Chief Editor of the Hanju Daily

leaks the secret.

Stop talking nonsense!

I know you obtained the rights
to redevelop

Hyeongsan-dong by offering to stop
the investigation

into the Minister of Land.

But…

you can't let anything like

the incident from 7 years ago
happen again.

While Mr. Jung Jun-hyeok was

able to overcome the negative sentiment
over his father's past misdeeds,

if such a travesty were to recur,

that would sound a death knell
to Mr. Jung's presidential aspirations.

That would be a catastrophe.

We can't let

Congressman Min's sacrifice
for our greater goal

go to waste. That's something that

we cannot let happen.

Chairman Jung,

please be careful of your actions.

Okay?

If

Such a thing were to…

I've heard enough!

Since we're on the subject,

let's go over exactly what happened.

See exactly what happened
seven years ago

and who's truly at fault.

Is there anyone here

who can claim innocence

and has the right to point fingers?

I'm sorry.

I'll make sure that

what you're worried about

doesn't happen again.

I don't care

what others say about me.

I can just let it slide.

But how could you apologize for me?

You should have stood up for me.

You said you needed funds
for Jun-il to expand

Sungjin Trade and Apparel.

So in order to obtain those funds,

I did everything I could,

even kowtowing to those bastards.

I know

that you feel deeply wounded

because of all the ridicule

you've received in your life.

I know that people say

you struck it rich

by marrying an unwed mother.

How could I not?

It's not like I'm deaf.

If you know that,

how could you be so harsh on me?

But that's why you were so ambitious.

All this time, you wanted to

reach a position of power and influence

in this family.

But I won't be held responsible

for the mistakes you made
because of that ambition.

So, don't drag me down

to your level

ever again.

It was that day

seven years ago

when you had a gathering with them
over the Hyeongsan-dong demolition?

I'm going to check out some desks.

I don't think I can go with you.

Everyone is on standby because
of the Hyeongsan-dong demolition.

Just focus on your work.

I'll take care of everything.

It hasn't been that long since you
became the main anchor.

Focus on work.

But it's our wedding anniversary.

I'll take you somewhere nice for dinner.

Jae-hui,

why don't you just get a divorce?

No!

I can't do that.

Jung Jun-hyeok is mine.

I made him.

I won't let anyone else have him.

Yi-seol might not be trying to take him.

She might have been sincere

when she said she'd protect you.

Did she get to you, too?

If Yi-seol reveals everything,

that we created a fake alibi
for Cho Gang-hyeon

and closed the case on
No Yeong-ju's death…

Yi-seol

knows everything.

She could even reveal

that she had a child with Jun-hyeok.

She sold her body

in order to make money.

She's in no position to
reveal anyone's wrongdoings.

Didn't she say she'd protect me?

Tell her to keep her promise.

Hi, honey.

Is something the matter?

[HAN DONG-MIN]

Hello, Dong-min.

Hi.

Have you talked to Yi-seol today?

Why do you ask?

I wasn't able to get through to her.

So, I came to her place,

and her door is open, but no one is here.

It's strange.

I'm sure there's a reason.

But I don't know everything about her.

Who is it?

What's going on?

Yi-seol!

What is it?

Who's there?

What is it?

What's going on?

Yi…

Yi-seol!

Yi-seol!

Wake up!

- Let's get her inside.
- OK.

Wake up!

[LEAVE THE TRAGEDY OF HYEONGSAN-DONG
OUT OF POLITICS]

She'll be fine.
She just needs some rest.

Thank you, doctor.

Was it those bastards that assaulted you?

I don't know.

We'll have to find out more.

But they must have attacked Yi-seol.

They're using the people
around you to pressure you.

Yi-seol hosted the talk concert
with Jun-hyeok so…

Excuse me.

[LEAVE THE TRAGEDY OF HYEONGSAN-DONG
OUT OF POLITICS]

Do you know how late it is?

What?

What are you saying?

Kim Yi-seol?

Who is that?

Hello?

Why don't you answer me?

She's a staff member at the gallery.

She appeared in the talk concert
with Jun-hyeok.

So?

What does she have to do with me?

You didn't tell Mother

about what we did together, did you?

I'm not stupid.

You told me that Han-suk was
pretending to be for Jun-hyeok

but she had Ju-yeon
secretly plot against him.

That's why you wanted a truce

so that we could
protect Jun-hyeok together.

I said that

I wouldn't let Mother use me again.

No. It's nothing serious.

I'll tell you after I resolve the matter.

Open the door.

Yes, I understand, Father.

I'll call you later.

What's going on?

What?

Why would you lock the door

and call Father
in the middle of the night?

Hasn't everything been resolved?

You received permission

to redevelop Hyeongsan-dong by
threatening to leak

your files on Park Man-jae
and pinning the assault on him.

What happened today
has nothing to do with that.

Then what's the meaning of this?

Someone must have found out it was fake.

What?

I was behind

the assault.

It was Father and I

We did it together.

Hello, detective.

I'm sorry for calling you so late.

Something urgent came up.

Someone close to me was assaulted

but I can't report it

through official channels.

Yes.

Yes.

Are you crazy?

What do you think will happen

if Dong-min were to find out about it?

So,

I should have just stood by

as Ju-yeon plotted against you
with Congressman Min

and waited to see how Mother would react?

All the while, worrying about
whose side Mother would take?

You should have discussed it with me!

I know about the child you had

with another woman.

Mother told me.

She knew that Father was

desperately searching for
the whereabouts of the child.

Mother might even know

the identity of the woman
who gave birth.

Today's incident

is most likely a warning from Mother.

To have Yi-seol assaulted
and left outside of our place

could be a warning from Mother to me,

so that I don't try to
assert my independence.

Or it could be a warning to you
so that you'll stop acting in a way

that will dent her plans for you.

I'm sure we'll find out soon enough.

I'll get going now.

How is Yi-seol?

She's sleeping deeply.

I called a detective that I know.

I asked him to help me find
the bastard that attacked Yi-seol.

I thought it would be better
than calling the police

since I didn't want
Jun-hyeok to be fodder

for any unpleasant gossip.

It's probably better than to

call this into the police officially.

Yes, you're right.

Yi-seol

really likes you a lot.

She says that you've been nice to her

and helped her out a lot.

She said that she wanted to repay you.

You must be tired.
Get some rest.

I'll call you tomorrow.

Okay.

I'll see myself out.

Good night.

I'm leaving, Jun-hyeok.

Good night.

Drive safe.

Jun-hyeok,

don't let this weaken your resolve.

I'll protect you.

Okay.

Get up. I know you're not sleeping.

Did you see who did it?

No.

It wasn't anyone from Sungjin.

I checked.

Jun-hyeok doesn't seem
to recognize you at all.

Do you have feelings for him?

Or

Did you plot with No Yeong-ju

to blackmail men you've slept with?

Don't say such things.

I know you're the one who sent
the sex video

to Madam Kwon.

Do you have videos of Jun-hyeok, too?

You just wait

until I decide what
I'm going to do with you.

In the meantime, you can

mourn for your dead child.

Hyeon-wu,

I'm sorry I can't
take you to kindergarten, honey.

It's all right.

Daddy is taking me.

- I'll see you at dinnertime.
- Okay.

Bye, Mom.

Bye.

- Please give her her meals on time.
- Yes, ma'am.

Excuse me.

What are you doing in here?

Your meal is ready.

Come with me.

Okay.

Yi-seol was kidnapped and assaulted?

This neighborhood

is full of vacancies, and people
only care about redevelopment.

It'll be tough to find out who did it.

So, where is Yi-seol right now?

At my house.

What are you trying to do?

Please find out who's behind this.

I have my suspicions,

but I want to be sure.

Chairwoman Seo knows who Kim Yi-seol is?

Maybe she just found out
or maybe she knew all along.

I'm going to ask her.

So please hurry.

[LEAVE THE TRAGEDY OF HYEONGSAN-DONG
OUT OF POLITICS]

How did it go?

Nobody's reported the assault
to the police.

She hasn't reported it even though
a staff member was

kidnapped and assaulted?

She's a scary girl.

What's he

doing there?

Well,

Mrs. Yun told me to leave him alone.

Let me see that.

Can you explain this to me?

How did you…

Jae-hui seems to know that

I was the one who sent her the present.

I'll have to call her in
and talk to her.

I want to know

why she's doing things
without my permission again.

It's been a long time.

So, what's the occasion?

Why did you want to see
a nobody like me all of a sudden?

I'll take the same.

How was it the first time

you met Madam Kwon?

Is that why you called me here?

Why do you want to know?

You're so mean.

You know what she said?

She said she couldn't believe

what she was going through.

Yet, she was smiling as if
it wasn't bothering her at all.

I'm just wondering how she felt
as she took her husband's mistress

and child into her home.

There's just one reason
she took me in.

She didn't want her husband
going behind her back.

She wanted her

husband to be open
about his affairs.

That made me feel so pathetic.

When we were going behind her back,

I felt a sense of superiority.

Like I was better.

I was completely taken because Gang-hyeon

told me that I was his love and that
he didn't care for his wife.

How pathetic.

You're right.

I regret it.

I was pathetic and stupid.

But you know what's even worse?

Gang-hyeon had no sense of guilt.

He became bold about his indiscretions.

Before, he was scared to get caught.

But he completely changed overnight.

He knew that she would never divorce him

so he became confident

and took on even more mistresses.

What an ass!

That's how power is.

You become confident

even when you do wrong.

No matter how badly you behave

and how much you lie,

it doesn't affect you a bit.

You probably won't divorce him
because of all the effort you put in.

It's your choice.

You can keep him by your side
and harass him

or you can send him away
and feel anxious.

Your husband will behave differently
depending on what you choose.

Don't forget that.

Okay?

What's the occasion?

I'm just thinking of old times.

Jun-il, you, Eun-jeong, and I
used to come here to drink.

It could still have

been that way
if you hadn't married Jae-hui.

- Jun-hyeok!
- Hi, Sis.

You're disappointed
that I'm here, aren't you?

Is Ju-yeon bothering you again?

- You want me to scold her?
- Yes.

I'm just joking.

It's not like that.

Where's Jae-hui?

She's in no mood to be
drinking with us right now.

You're so clueless.

It must be tough for you, Ju-yeon.

Now isn't that the truth.

Jun-il,

you should take care of Ju-yeon.

She's going around causing trouble

because you don't
pay enough attention to her.

Hey!

What are you saying, Jun-hyeok?

Did something happen?

You shouldn't try to stab me in the back.

You and I are family, after all.

What will people say if they find out?

I'm not running for president

purely for my own interests.

It's just a role I have to play

for the good
of the Sungjin family business.

Just as Jun-il

has to become chairman even though
he doesn't want to.

Am I wrong?

Well, am I?

Nobody forced you to marry
a woman like Jae-hui.

She's my woman and I chose her.

If you don't like it,
then you get a divorce.

- Are you done?
- I'm sorry, Jun-hyeok.

I'll make sure

that such a thing never happens again.

Mommy!

Is she in the room?

She went out with
Han Dong-min, the reporter.

You can get CCTV footage
without a subpoena.

All you have to do is put in a request.

If you give me power of attorney,

I can put in the request for you.

Thank you.

I'm sorry that I can't do

anything more for you.

I hope you don't mind

if I become someone that

you can rely on

and ask for help.

- Mommy.
- Yes?

Let's play dominoes after dinner.

Okay.

I hope Yi-seol comes back soon.

What do you mean?

There aren't any CCTVs?

The area's been slated for demolition.

So, there aren't
any CCTVs around that area.

How about the CCTVs in front of my home?

There must be footage of the man
who left Yi-seol there.

I sent you a video, so take a look.

It's from a dashcam of a car in front
of the manager's office of your home.

The manager

said that the CCTVs were down

temporarily last night
because of a malfunction.

That's all I need to know.

Now, I just need to hear
Mother's explanation.

I'll ask her

why she is treating me badly again.

Yi-seol!

Come play dominoes with me!

You should
brush your teeth first, Hyeon-wu.

Come on!

Do as I say.

Okay.

What did Dong-min say?

He said we could find

the assailant even without
reporting the incident to the police.

He seemed very worried for you.

So, why didn't he report
it to the police?

Why didn't you report it?

That's because

me and my husband
are more important than you.

It's more important

that everything goes according to plan.

It's more important

that we don't become fodder for rumors.

That's also why Dong-min
didn't report it to the police.

He may be concerned for you,

but he knows that Jun-hyeok
is far more important for him.

Mommy is a liar.

Are you mad, Hyeon-wu?

You can play tomorrow.

I wanted to find Yeong-ju's killer

and take revenge.

If Madam Kwon killed her,

she wouldn't have killed herself

when she received the text
from you purporting to be No Yeong-ju.

If it wasn't her,

I thought it would be you.

But you accepted me without
a sliver of suspicion.

I played into your hands completely.

That's why I was going to
tell you everything.

Did you think that telling me

about my husband's infidelities

and making me divorce him
was truly for my benefit?

Yes.

I still think that.

I don't care what kind of man he is.

I told you that I accept it
and I'm going to live with him.

It's none of your business.

You seem to have taken
the moral high ground.

But then,

instead of pretending to care about me,

you shouldn't have slept
with my husband to begin with!

You made me feel so pathetic.

How could you apologize to Jun-hyeok?

How could you apologize to him
when you knew fully well

that Jun-hyeok called everyone together
in order to embarrass me?

Did you have to play the good guy?

What do you mean?

I don't know how I have to behave

to play the good guy.

Is Jun-il home?

Yes, ma'am.

Tell him to come visit me.

Yes, ma'am.

Actually,

I shouldn't talk to him
while my husband is around.

I'm no different from you.

Just as you're going after Jae-hui

in order to protect
what's important to you,

I'm

trying to protect what's important to me

by refraining from saying things
even when I want to.

So,

what you're saying is

that I'm not important to you.

Fine.

Now that I know how you truly feel,

it's fine.

Ju-yeon,

should we

get a divorce?

Tell Jae-hui to come
visit me tomorrow morning.

Yes, ma'am.

Chairwoman Seo wishes
to see you tomorrow at 9 AM.

Don't be late.

[DNA PATERNITY TEST RESULTS]

[RESUME, KIM YI-SEOL]

What is it?

Well…

I'm afraid I can't make it.

Please tell Mother
that I'll contact her later.

I've solved my problem.

How about you?

Me, too.

I talked to Jun-il and Ju-yeon.

Good.

It would have been better
if that hadn't happened at all.

That's how it'll be in the future.

I'm going to make sure

that no one dares to disrespect
you or me in the future.

Just trust me.

If

That hadn't happened at all…

[ARTIFICIAL CITY]

I had no other choice.

I trusted you so.

He didn't die.

Jae-hui

doesn't know the truth.

Everyone gets what they deserve.

You have to be responsible
for your actions.

Say hello.

No one knows

how you've lived until now.

The game is over.

Jae-hui has everything.

Mother, you're finished.

I don't want to live

fearing what would happen
if you decided to use

Jun-hyeok's problems against me, Mother.
