POOREUN EUNHA MEMORIAL PARK

HUSBAND

Hey.

What's up?

Honey.

What's going on?

This may shock you, but…

Ji-hoon…

committed sexual assault.

What did you say?

Ji-hoon did what?

Honey, wait--

Hold on.

What do you mean?

Ji-hoon did what to whom?

Honey, I don't understand what you're saying right now.

Honey.

Kim Soo-bin.

Kim Soo-bin blackmailed me.

She claims she was raped

and that she'll expose it.

So I'll be holding a press conference…

in an hour.

Before Kim Soo-bin goes public with it.

No, honey, give me some time before the press conference. Please.

I'm sorry.

No, wait. Honey!

CALL ENDED

First, Ms. Namgoong Sol,

then Ms. Kim's old incident, and now his son.

It's one sex crime after another.

Jamsil Baseball Stadium holds up to 25,000 people.

And with 30,000 sexual offense cases reported annually,

that's over 80 cases a day.

It's a common occurrence.

I'll hold a press conference at 11 a.m.

The person you are trying to reach is…

Honey, please give me some time.

Pick up your phone.

Please.

I have to call her. Kim Soo-bin.

KIM SOO-BIN (OLD)

The phone is turned off…

Oh, no.

HYE-JOO

JUNG EUN-YEONG, JUNG MYEONG-SEON

NAM JOONG-DO

-Ms. Kim. -Hello.

Where is…

I am…

Assemblyman Nam Joong-do

of Sinyang, Seoul.

Today, I came to know that

my son, who passed last month,

had a girlfriend

prior to his death…

ASSEMBLYMAN NAM JOONG-DO PRESS CONFERENCE

…whom he sexually assaulted.

Hence, I apologize from the bottom of my heart

to the victim and the citizens.

BELATED DISCOVERY OF DECEASED SON'S SEXUAL ASSAULT

APOLOGIES TO THE VICTIM AND CITIZENS

REALITY

Also…

allow me to share

the details of the bill I wish to propose.

I am proposing

an amendment to the Criminal Act

that allows investigations to continue

even if the assailant is deceased from suicide or otherwise.

You must all remember Ji…

Ms. Kim is at the office.

…to distribute an intimate video of his ex-girlfriend,

causing her to take her own life.

He then committed suicide

when his arrest warrant was issued.

This amendment I am proposing

will be named after the victim,

the beloved granddaughter of Ms. Cho Gwi-soon here,

and it will be called

Namgoong Sol's Law.

Under the current law, when the assailant of a sex crime dies,

the investigation can no longer continue,

which deprives the victim of a chance to reveal the truth.

Therefore,

I propose an amendment to the Criminal Act

that allows investigations to continue

by retaining the right of arraignment

even when the sex offenders are deceased due to suicide or otherwise.

The place is well-kept. Thank you for showing it.

I'll give you a call.

Please do.

-Let's go. -Okay.

-You know… -Yes?

The place I told you about…

Come to the National Assembly right away.

Hello, sir.

NAM JOONG-DO

I asked…

I asked you to wait, honey.

I just needed a bit of time.

How could you do this?

How could you go ahead with something like this

without talking to me first?

Soo-bin told me that wasn't the case, honey.

When?

I asked her on the day she first came to our place.

Did Soo-bin really tell you…

that Ji-hoon did that to her?

Did she? When?

She was here this morning

and threatened…

to disclose it.

Ja-young is giving Ms. Cho a ride home.

The phones will start ringing off the hook--

Please respond the way I told you.

-Yes. -Yes.

Hello?

-Hello, sir. -Assemblyman Nam Joong-do's office.

Hey, Yeong-su.

Kim Soo-bin showed up this morning.

Should I write a post online?

She said Ji-hoon raped her and got her pregnant.

She wanted to expose it.

That makes no sense.

Why would she have come to us then? There's just no way.

And why would she deny it when I asked?

Who knows?

We know nothing about her past.

Do you believe her?

How?

You believed her enough to hold a press conference.

She showed me her OBGYN records.

The doctor referred her

to a sexual assault victim support center.

She even has records of her counseling sessions.

And think of everything Ji-hoon had done.

This isn't too far-fetched.

What did she ask for?

She must have blackmailed you because she wanted something in return.

Was it money? How much?

Fifty million won.

It looks like I need at least 50 million to find a place.

Honey.

If you had told me on the phone,

I would have found a way to get 100 million, let alone 50.

Because I…

DON'T WASTE MY TAX MONEY AND JUST EXECUTE HIM

BRING BACK THE DEATH PENALTY

DISGUSTING CRIMINAL

I GUESS THIS KID DOESN'T HAVE DADDY COVERING HIS ASS

MAKE SURE HE ROTS BEHIND BARS!

How could you do this?

It was hard for me too.

But I couldn't let her blackmail me.

No secret lasts forever.

When you've done something wrong, the best way to be forgiven is

to own up to it and ask for forgiveness.

It was for Ji-hoon's sake.

That's why I decided to come clean.

Taking a preemptive measure was the only way.

Please understand.

A preemptive measure?

Is that really all?

You're not

using Ji-hoon for your bill, are you?

What?

You decided to publicize my story before asking me.

Did you set everything up before letting me know today too?

Because you knew I wouldn't approve.

-Honey. -Isn't that the case?

If you only confessed because you'd been blackmailed,

why did you bring up the bill?

And when did you bring Ms. Cho?

Hye-joo.

That really isn't the case.

Do you think I'd use my son for my political…

I guess I already lost your trust yesterday.

It's all my fault.

I was going to propose the bill soon anyway.

So if I had to disclose Ji-hoon's crime,

I wanted to divert the attention away from him.

-We don't have any comments besides… -Please refer to the statement we sent.

NAM PROPOSES NAMGOONG SOL'S LAW

If I hadn't mentioned the bill, the news would only be

talking about Ji-hoon now.

This is too much for me to handle.

So this is how politics works.

You once asked me this.

Do you regret…

getting married to someone who wants to be in politics?

Do you regret it?

I don't regret it.

Never.

But I do regret it now.

It's like I don't know you at all.

Hye-joo.

He must be insane.

Where did he get the idea to call in reporters

and confess his son's sex crime?

But it's much better than having the Nation and People's Party

expose it first.

Not when it's a sex crime.

What about the party's image?

Tell him to leave the party!

That's unnecessary.

Many people are applauding his honest confession.

Assemblyman Nam Joong-do of the Daehan Party

held a press conference today and confessed

-the sexual assault -Watch your step.

committed by his deceased son, which caused a stir.

Namgoong Sol's Law…

Ms. Kim Hye-joo.

Were you aware of your son's sex crime?

-Don't film her. -Why are you here?

Stop it.

Assemblyman Nam used the medical student case

to cover up his son's drug usage.

-Today, he proposed a controversial bill. -Watch the stairs.

He seems to keep covering up his son's wrongdoings

using other people's misfortunes.

Any comments on this?

Hye-joo, don't answer. It's okay.

Your son was a hindrance when he was alive.

Has he become a political tool now?

Look here!

-Are you-- -Ma'am.

You just crossed the line.

Have a little respect and courtesy.

Just because you're covering politics doesn't mean it's okay to be inhuman.

Let's go, Hye-joo.

Come on.

Call me if you have anything to tell us.

Get out of the way.

Hye-joo.

Let's go home for now.

Yeo-jin.

People didn't believe me either back then.

Are you saying

Seung-ho molested you?

Stop lying.

Do you expect me to believe that?

They called me a liar.

It felt so unfair and harsh.

But now I'm thinking…

that Ji-hoon might have done bad things,

but he wouldn't have done something so terrible.

I hear there's proof,

but I still can't believe Soo-bin.

I just wish she was lying.

But…

I, of all people,

shouldn't be doubting her, right?

YOON-SEO'S TEACHER

-I see. -Sir.

-I appreciate your support. -Please don't swear at…

Your press conference will be

the headline of every news channel tonight.

CHOI JUN-WON, MBS REPORTER

Also, heated debates are going on

regarding Namgoong Sol's Law on many online forums.

Anything about Ji-hoon?

There's a lot.

I canceled all of your schedule today.

You should go see Ms. Kim before it gets late.

…loses its right of arraignment, and the case is closed.

This morning, Assemblyman Nam Joong-do of the Daehan Party

held a press conference and disclosed a sex crime

that his deceased son committed…

-Sir, can you turn off the radio? -before death.

-Sorry? Sure. -Even after the sex offender dies…

Thank you.

Seung-hee.

You should get something to eat.

You haven't eaten anything all day.

I'm fine.

The doctor said Mom will wake up soon.

But still.

I'll stay with her,

so go grab a bite.

I'll call you when she wakes up.

You!

Are you the one who ratted out Mr. Park to Nam Joong-do?

Mark my words.

I won't let you two

get away with this.

That's about his son who died, right?

Yes.

And Nam Joong-do came out and said it himself.

Your neighborhood's going to get noisy.

I know.

I voted for him last time.

JICHEONG MIDDLE SCHOOL

Nam Yoon-seo.

Kwon Da-som.

Aren't you going to tell us why you fought?

Yoon-seo.

Why did you two fight?

Nam Ji-hoon.

Because of Nam Ji-hoon.

-He raped her. -Raped?

What? He raped her? Impossible.

Her brother did drugs too.

No, he didn't.

And we don't know if he really raped her. Don't jump to conclusions.

I mean, your dad says it's true.

Rape? Don't you think that's disgusting?

-Hey, Jang Hyeon-seo! -Yes.

It's the worst.

-What? -I'll say it again.

Sex offenders should drop dead.

Hey, Da-som.

Mom.

Did he…

really do that?

No, right?

It can't be.

Goodness.

I'm sorry I'm late.

I was with a patient and wasn't able to check my phone.

Da-som.

Did you and Yoon-seo fight? Why?

Yoon-seo.

What's wrong? What is it?

Let's talk about this after your classes.

Submit an apology letter too.

-Okay. -Okay.

Hye-joo.

I'm sorry. One second.

Hello?

Yes. You mean Ms. Kim Si-nae?

How much has her cervix dilated?

CHIEF ADVISOR JANG WOO-JAE

Ms. Kim must be quite shaken up. Please look after her.

DAON WOMEN'S CLINIC

-Hye-joo. -Yes?

Right, we're here already.

I'm sorry I can't take you home. I have a patient in labor.

No, it's all right. Thank you.

You look awful right now.

Come up with me and get an IV and some rest.

I'm fine.

-I'll be going. See you later. -Bye.

-Oh, my. -I'm sorry, Ji-soo. One second.

It's okay. Take your time.

Ms. Kim Soo-bin.

-Hye-joo. -Yes?

Who's that in the picture?

This?

Who…

is that?

She's Ji-hoon's…

-Bye then. -Okay. Bye.

See you.

I just parked. I'll be right up.

By the way,

the patient we had on an IV for stomach pain earlier…

Has she left?

DAON WOMEN'S CLINIC

Soo-bin.

Soo-bin!

Soo-bin, did Ji-hoon really do that?

Is this true? Did Ji-hoon do that?

Say something.

Is this true?

Soo-bin!

People are looking.

Let's talk somewhere else.

Soo-bin.

When I asked you before,

you told me that wasn't the case, right?

So…

So why?

Did he really…

Did Ji-hoon really

do that to you?

No.

No, right?

He didn't, right?

Ji-hoon didn't do that. You're telling the truth, right?

Then you're…

You're okay, right?

That didn't happen, right?

You're really okay, right?

What a relief.

Thank goodness.

Thank you, Soo-bin.

So that's not

how you got pregnant, right?

Right?

Then why did you do that, Soo-bin?

Why did you do that?

If you needed money, you should have just asked for it.

Why did you have to frame Ji-hoon? Why?

And why did you blackmail Ji-hoon's dad with a lie?

Why would you do that?

What?

Blackmail?

He said I blackmailed him?

You didn't?

He said you threatened to go public with it.

I didn't blackmail him.

What?

Then…

Then are you saying he lied…

He…

You don't believe me, do you?

I understand.

I'm not your family or anything.

I'm just a kid you knew for a while.

But…

I really didn't

blackmail him.

You don't have to believe anything else,

but I wouldn't ever

stoop that low.

He said you threatened to go public with it.

I didn't blackmail him.

Yes, I'm blackmailing you right now.

I met…

Soo-bin earlier.

How?

I ran into her in the afternoon.

And she

told me…

Ji-hoon didn't do that.

And…

she also said she never threatened to go public.

Is this true?

Honey.

That makes no sense.

Do you believe what Kim Soo-bin said?

She's playing us right now.

It's not that I believe her.

There's no reason for her to play us like this.

-Especially with something like this. -Her medical records said so.

Fine.

Let's say she's telling the truth.

If she didn't blackmail me with Ji-hoon's matter,

why has she been quiet since the press conference?

Are you telling me

that I lied to you and the entire nation?

Do you really think I would

accuse my son of being a scumbag just to change the law?

Is that who your husband is?

I've never…

doubted you once.

But you can't trust me.

You don't need to explain anything to me.

There may be no proof or witnesses,

but I still believe you.

Because it's you.

I…

never imagined…

you would trust someone else

more than me.

Especially not a girl like her.

What else did she say?

Tell me everything she said.

Let me hear what other lies she came up with.

What?

Nam Joong-do!

Nam Joong-do!

Nam Joong-do, you piece of shit!

I don't need these.

-How could you do this to Ji-hoon? -Please let go of him.

Do you not care about your kid

now that you're wearing that badge?

Su-hyeon sacrificed her life to give birth to Ji-hoon.

You're supposed to be his father

and you publicly ruined his reputation.

How can you call yourself his father?

He may have done something really bad

but he doesn't deserve this!

Please don't do this.

Stay out of this!

Honey, are you okay?

Leave her out of this.

Did you just take that woman's side in front of me

now that Su-hyeon is dead and gone?

-"That woman"? -Su-hyeon died

without getting any treatment to save your son.

She gave her life to save Ji-hoon.

Do you know what people are saying now?

That they should dig up his grave and put an ankle monitor on him!

When you were getting remarried,

I told you to send Ji-hoon to us.

But what did you say?

That you'd raise him well.

So I trusted that woman with him.

Look where that got us!

If he didn't feel so unwelcome and lonely,

he wouldn't have become so bad!

Goodness.

Goodness, Su-hyeon.

Poor Su-hyeon.

She must be turning in her grave!

It's all my fault.

Ji-hoon.

What's going on with you?

Are your studies burdening you?

Or is someone harassing you?

You can tell me anything.

What can you do about it?

Everything sucks.

I will accept

But please direct it only at me.

She loved Ji-hoon more than anybody else.

She's Ji-hoon's mom.

Thank you

and I'm sorry for this afternoon.

When I accused you

of using Ji-hoon earlier today…

I was being unfair. I'm sorry.

You're his dad.

I'm sorry.

You're okay, right?

That didn't happen, right?

You're really okay, right?

What a relief.

Thank goodness.

Thank you, Soo-bin.

Did Ji-hoon…

Are you done?

Yes.

Goodness.

I'll put these outside.

Ms. Lee, can we talk for a moment?

Goodness.

Goodness.

My head hurts.

Goodness, my head.

Jeez.

…he would make sure this amendment passes.

Assemblyman Nam also promised to do his best

to destigmatize sex crime victims.

Under current law, when sex offenders kill themselves…

You have seven interviews on Namgoong Sol's Law from 13:00 today.

And you have five tomorrow.

Sir.

You aren't wearing your badge.

Right,

I didn't notice.

It has been an eventful couple of days.

THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY

Right, the short ribs.

THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY

He must have been in a hurry.

And I'm grateful that someone who's busy as Assemblyman Nam

made time to come see her before sundown.

But didn't he stop by late at night--

No, he didn't.

How could I forget someone wearing an assemblyman's badge?

I need to go out for a bit.

There's a wake I have to attend.

But isn't it too late right now?

I have a tight schedule tomorrow.

It's better to go now.

NAM JI-HOON

We took several risks,

but things seem to be going the way you intended.

Goodbye.

ASSEMBLYMAN KANG SOON-HONG

Hello, Assemblyman Kang.

You're calling quite early.

Sorry?

When Ms. Kim Soo-bin came in and inquired about getting an abortion,

I wrote in her chart that she got pregnant

as a result of a sexual assault.

She said the assailant was her boyfriend.

Right?

I happened to book the press conference hall

for 11 a.m. today.

I'll yield it to you.

Why don't you use it

to announce that the Youngsan land speculation

was nothing but a misunderstanding?

If you don't want to,

I could just use it

to talk about your son.

INCOMING CALL

This is Nam Joong-do.

I wrote in her chart that she got pregnant

as a result of a sexual assault.

She said the assailant was her boyfriend.

I only said that to the doctor

because I heard I couldn't get an abortion unless I was a victim of a sex crime.

I didn't know they changed the law.

Either way,

that's not how I got pregnant.

Then who's the father?

You said it wasn't sexual assault.

Is Ji-hoon really the father?

No.

It's my ex-boyfriend.

What I'm saying is,

those records are

completely wrong.

Ji-hoon has nothing to do with my pregnancy.

Are you insane?

You're going to hold a press conference and say

that Ji-hoon raped me?

You said you needed a place to stay.

I'll handle the rest.

Ms. Kim will be hurt.

She has nothing to do with you now.

She was only good to you

because she thought you were pregnant with Ji-hoon's baby.

Okay.

When are you going to pay me?

I apologize from the bottom of my heart

to the victim and the citizens.

In addition, I accused Assemblyman Kang Soon-hong

of the Nation and People's Party last month

of engaging in land speculation in Youngsan.

I promise to get to the bottom of it

and reveal the whole truth of it soon.

What the…

That bastard.

What…

This wasn't part of the plan.

I'll feel guilty for what I did

to Hye-joo and Ji-hoon for the rest of my life.

But I had no other choice.

For the greater good…

and for this world.

Listen up.

Break your promise again,

and you'll lose everything including this place.

Understand?

Okay.

Kim Soo-bin will

no longer be a problem.

However…

if Ms. Kim finds out…

That won't happen.

IN APPRECIATION OF BAE GYEONG-GUK

Assemblyman Nam?

I think he was

the first to arrive at the wake.

Yes.

He came around dinnertime

but he didn't even stay for dinner because he was busy.

My wife…

never doubts me.

NAM JI-HOON

Jin Seung-ho's case will get out today or tomorrow.

Be prepared.

Jin Seung-hee won't sit idle

after my press conference.

Even with the land issue aside,

she'll think that Namgoong Sol's Law is targeted at her brother.

Yes, sir.

There's no way to prove the truth anyway.

Which means…

whoever wins the public's support

will be the one telling the truth.

Right.

I think Assemblyman Nam was

the first guest after you.

NAM JOONG-DO, HEO JI-HYE, KIM MYEONG-JA…

Look.

His name is written at the very beginning.

NAM JOONG-DO

-There's a wake I have to attend. -Whose wake?

Taeyang Shopping Center's leader's mother-in-law passed away.

But isn't it too late right now?

I have a tight schedule tomorrow.

It's better to go now.

Hello. Thank you.

Thank you, Assemblyman Nam.

HALL 5, NAMGOONG SOL

Just a moment.

Who are…

NATIONAL ASSEMBLY

He came with his badge on that day.

I clearly remember seeing it.

The moment he stepped into the funeral hall,

I recognized him

thanks to his golden badge.

I may forget everything else,

but I'll never forget seeing his badge on that day

until the day I die.

The night Ji-hoon died,

Mr. Nam was the last person he met.

I'll make sure

that you'll never be in politics again.

What about you, sir?

Did you meet with him?

No.

Subtitle translation by: Eun-sook Yoon

TROLLEY

On the night of Ji-hoon's accident.

-Did you meet him? -Assemblyman Nam kind of scared me.

I wrote all about it online. It'll be over soon.

-On what condition? -Oppose Namgoong Sol's Law.

Stop hanging around Ms. Kim and just cooperate.

I have no choice for the greater good.

I can't trust anybody right now.
