PREVIOUSLY ON PENTHOUSE...

You're Vice Minister Yoon Kyung Eun from the Ministry of Education, yes?

Thank you for taking the time to meet me, ma'am.

Why did you ask to see me?

You're highly reputed to be an educator with good character,

so I wanted to meet you.

I would like to become a light for your future.

A light?

Who on earth are you?

Hello, Vice Minister Yoon.

I'm Jessica, the baby madam.

Baby madam?

Don't stare at me like that. You're embarrassing me.

I may not look it, but I am very interested in education.

I'm your fan.

It feels kind of cold. How about we drink?

Here. Drink with us. Bottoms up.

I don't drink with people I do not know.

Then... Have some fruit. Here you go.

I can get it myself.

Why are you so on guard?

Please make yourself comfortable. Be comfortable.

I am very comfortable right now.

I would not have come had I known this was why you invited me.

I'm leaving.

Goodness. Wait.

- What was that? - What are you doing?

Hush. What did you say? What?

I didn't invite you here to waste your time.

There's something you need to see.

Here. Ma'am.

This is nice.

They're VIP customers in the next room over.

- Gosh. - Minister Kang?

Gosh. Goodness.

What great weather.

Are you telling me...

to take this bribe from you?

Minister.

What do you mean? There's no bribe in this room.

We can't see or hear anything.

How did you read my mind so well?

I'm so moved!

You're so cool.

Please do what you can...

to get Gangnam's prestigious schools to move to Cheonsoo District.

Prestigious high schools are absolutely necessary...

in the model submitted by Cheong A Constructions.

Please make your decision.

You won't be a minister forever.

You have honor already. It's time to become rich now.

- Yes! - Me too.

Friends.

I don't know if this is right.

They're so beautiful.

Second lady. Come here.

Whatever!

Kindness shall never be forgotten!

- Kindness shall never be forgotten! - Kindness shall never be forgotten!

Why don't you sing something, sir?

Are you ready to party?

Party with me all night long

Shout it out loud

Cheong A Constructions...

is lobbying Minister Kang...

to move the prestigious schools...

from Gangnam's School District Eight to Cheonsoo District.

I knew he'd get in trouble one of these days.

He was always obsessed with money.

If the top high schools in our nation...

are moved to Cheonsoo District,

young parents will storm to buy houses there.

And the house prices will shoot through the roof.

Because an education complex...

bigger than the one in Daechi-dong will be created.

Education...

will be used in their ploy to make money on real estate.

Why are you showing this to me?

We know you don't get along with Minister Kang.

Everyone knows you're enemies.

We want the same thing.

Their demise.

It'll be enough to get rid of Minister Kang.

I don't know what you're up to,

but making a deal with me like this is also lobbying.

I am aware of that.

You don't have to get your hands dirty.

I'll do everything myself.

All you have to do is clean it up.

Clean it up?

Make sure...

the schools in School District Eight can't be moved to Cheonsoo District.

Our children's education...

should not be used for the sake of property value.

You've lived as an educator your whole life.

Isn't your pride at stake?

Who are you?

Who?

Do whatever it takes to save Logan.

He doesn't need to function as a human being.

Just keep him breathing. That's why...

I got you out of prison.

I'm not a burn specialist. He's hopeless!

I don't know when he'll die.

He needs more drugs.

He must be moved to a large hospital quickly.

Let's talk in person.

Talk to the nurse.

What is that?

I said no outside drugs.

You said to save him at all costs.

I'm just doing my best as a doctor...

to treat my patient, that is all.

Do you think you're a reputable doctor?

Don't try to play doctor.

Just keep him alive.

Even a doctor who lost his license can do that much, right?

How much do you know about me?

You're watching from there, aren't you?

Who are you?

What's your relationship with Logan?

None of your business. Shut it and do as I say.

If you're really worried about him, use the drugs that are there.

It'll relieve the excruciating pain.

Why are you trying to save him?

I said it's none of your business.

No one else can find out that Logan is alive.

If it gets out...

your daughter's life will be in danger.

What?

Remember this.

No matter what you do, you're in the palm of my hand.

So don't try to do anything stupid.

I got you out of prison,

so you should lick the soles of my feet.

Am I wrong?

Are you...

Are you Dan Tae?

Finish treating him.

You can go once the nurse relieves you.

Who are you? Show your face, you low life!

Are you Dan Tae? Show your face!

Hey, you!

I said to think about your daughter.

I'm even prepared...

to lick the soles of your feet.

Yes. Think that it's Dan Tae.

That's what I want.

- That was great. - I know.

Losers come in all shapes and sizes.

He's busy making offerings to the people in power.

And he's busy extorting subcontractors.

It's because scum like that are in power...

that people like Yoon Hee died wrongful deaths.

I'll gouge out everything that is rotten.

Every single one.

Thank you. It's an honor to work with you.

Thank you

How about a picture to commemorate the occasion?

Sounds good.

Okay. Get in.

- That came out nice. - It did.

- I'll let you talk. - Sure.

So what are your plans...

(Korean Gaudi, Architect Bae Chae Shik)

(Cheonsoo District, Cheong A Constructions)

(Cheong A Group)

I know nothing about it.

How dare you create fake photos of me?

Fake? Did you just say they're fake?

Fake?

Sign this.

It's an oath that you'll never work with Cheong A Constructions.

But...

No? You won't sign it?

I will. I'll sign it.

Just keep the gold bars.

We won't tell Cheong A Constructions for the time being.

- Sign it. - Yes, ma'am.

(Oath Refusing to Work with Cheonsoo District)

(Bae Chae Shik)

My liver is dying from drinking every single night...

to wine and dine all those people.

It's almost over.

With the best schools,

the best architecture and landscaping, it's game over.

Did you manage to get Dohae Construction's business plan?

Their main pledge is about creating an eco-friendly city.

Education versus the environment.

It'll be a tough fight.

It's not fun if our opponent is too easy.

But a new construction company managed to jump into...

this huge business without any capital.

It's too weird.

Do you know who Dohae's lobbyist is?

Nothing much is known about her.

She's incredibly pretty.

And there's this woman who follows her like a bodyguard...

and her name is... Yes, Jessica.

She's in her 30s, I think.

She mixes drinks fantastically well...

and can make flowers and cranes out of fruit.

She's so charismatic that most men cower around her.

"Jessica?"

(Bathhouse)

What are you doing? Let go.

Let go!

What's your deal with Dohae Construction?

Jessica.

When we first met,

you lied and said that was your name.

What are you up to?

Don't you mind what I do.

We're one sign away from being divorced.

Chairman Joo won't touch us as long as we don't betray him.

Why are you acting out?

- Think of Jenny. - You moron.

Are you living as Dan Tae's dog for Jenny's sake?

I'm not a moron like you,

so I'm not scared of Dan Tae at all.

Do you want Jenny to be their pet dog too?

How did the fiery fist of Jincheon end up like this?

Ma Ri. You're Jenny's mom. Please.

Whenever I think of how you threw poor Yoon Hee in the lake,

I feel chilled to the bone.

If you're going to defend Dan Tae, don't show your face again.

And don't show up near Jenny.

She and I are in agreement on this.

- No, honey. - Let go of me!

Kang Ma Ri. Ms. Jincheon!

(Bathhouse)

(My sister)

It's me.

Why? What's up?

Are you busy?

Just tell me why you called.

I'm leaving today to study abroad. In Italy.

You're going abroad?

You're telling me now?

Did you get Mom's permission?

No. You tell her for me.

What is wrong with you?

You decided something that important without talking to Mom?

You should've at least talked to me first.

Are we even family?

Can you do this to Mom?

Why are you so angry?

I'm telling you now.

Mom said she doesn't consider me her child.

Do you believe that?

You're stupid. Mom's always waiting for your call.

Can you come...

to the airport?

I haven't seen you in so long.

And I won't be seeing you for a while.

Forget it.

Why do you need me when you'll do whatever you want?

Don't call me whether you live or die.

I can pretend I don't have a sister.

Bye.

Seok Hoon.

What?

Today?

She never mentioned that.

What time is her flight?

I didn't ask. She'll call when she arrives.

Don't worry.

Which school in Italy is it?

Did your dad send her?

She wanted to study abroad.

She'll settle in just fine.

It's best for her to be apart from Dad.

I didn't think she'd leave so abruptly.

Has something been bothering you?

I've been busy with work.

It's about Ro Na's mom, isn't it?

If you're looking into her death, I'll help.

It's fine. I can manage.

I'm in university now. I'm not a child.

Ro Na is struggling, and I want to help her.

Seok Hoon.

I know you think dearly of Ro Na,

but I think it's best you end it now.

What do you mean by that?

Ro Na's mom's death...

has something to do with your dad.

What?

Is that true?

It's not, right? Is it?

Ro Na will find out one day,

and it'll hurt both you and her a lot.

The man who tried to hurt her...

drove her mom to her death.

How could she forgive that?

- It's not your fault, but... - Stop.

Stop it.

I get it, so stop it.

It is my fault.

Like Dad said, if he's a demon, I'm the demon's son.

If he's a snake, I'm a snake's son.

A demon and snake's son, that's what I am...

and I fell for Ro Na.

I don't even deserve to.

I'm the son of a scumbag.

Where are you going, Seok Hoon?

(Dr. Ha Yoon Chul)

It's Ha Yoon Chul.

I have something urgent to say.

Can we meet?

I'm really sorry.

The traffic is terrible and I'll be ten minutes late.

Sure, that's fine. I just arrived anyway.

Take your time.

(Number Withheld)

(Number Withheld)

What are you doing?

Why do you have Eun Byeol's photo?

I thought what your weakness would be.

Nothing beats a child.

What darn nonsense...

If you touch a single hair on Eun Byeol's head,

I will kill you.

I swear I will kill you. Do you get that?

That's all up to you.

If you tell Shim Su Ryeon anything,

Mom!

That will be the last time you see your daughter.

Unless you want a tragic ending, leave right now.

You scumbag.

I don't give a second warning. Think carefully.

The phone is turned off. Please leave...

What are you doing here?

Why? Am I somewhere I can't be?

I need you to empty the building.

I'm going to flatten everything.

Says who?

The penthouse and Cheonsoo District lot 27.

Did you forget they're in my name?

I was too lenient, wasn't I?

I can't delay any longer.

It's your final notice.

Of all the plots of land,

why are you so fixated on this one?

I wonder.

Why don't you ask your dead father?

What happened to Seok Kyung?

Why suddenly send her abroad?

She wanted to go.

She wanted to run away to a place her mom could never find her.

So I made her wish come true...

since I'm a sweet dad.

I'm busy and have to dash. Bye.

(The Barber of Seville)

(The Barber of Seville)

(The Barber of Seville)

What are you doing?

I heard you failed the Cheong A audition.

Every application you submit gets rejected...

and yet you still want to go on?

Just go abroad, like my mother said.

Seok Kyung also went off to Italy, didn't she?

I don't want to run away.

People already say I'm the talentless daughter...

of a serial killer.

Where would I even run to?

Why would you read those comments? They'll only make you angry.

Make those people who attack you without knowing the full context...

reveal their identities before coming at you.

I'm reading them on purpose, so that I don't forget.

It's so that I remember...

what happened to my mom.

I can't watch this. Leave this and come with me.

Where are we going?

Drink and forget about it.

Tteokbokki and fried chicken are your favorite foods.

- Enjoy. - It looks delicious.

Honestly, isn't the whole Cheong A resident musician thing fake?

It's a show to support Eun Byeol.

I heard the Vienna Philharmonic concert in Korea...

is also taking place at Cheong A Arts Center.

Ms. Cheon...

is absolutely set on supporting Eun Byeol all the way.

That makes me so mad.

Min Hyuk. Are you going to live as Ha Eun Byeol's servant?

Don't you have any pride?

Everyone at your school should boycott the audition.

Make everything go to waste.

What are you doing at school?

I have good news.

You know the Vienna Philharmonic concert is next week, right?

The conductor, Clark Lee,

is doing a press conference at Cheong A Arts Center.

I'll do whatever it takes to arrange a meeting.

You just prepare to audition for Clark.

Audition? Me?

How?

He knows me from when I was studying abroad.

If you're acknowledged by Clark,

you'll get called by world-renowned conductors.

Then you can perform on international stages...

with the Vienna Philharmonic.

You can become a prima donna...

at famous opera houses in Italy and Austria.

I'll be a prima donna for Clark's performance?

No matter what anyone says, your skills are top-notch.

You won all music competitions in Korea.

Korea is too small a stage for you.

Although I stayed in this country,

I will support you endlessly...

so that you can perform on the international stage.

Do you think I can do it?

No one but you can do it.

Mom, can you hear my heart beat?

What should I sing for the audition?

You'll teach me, right?

Of course.

We need to bring our your best by next week, whatever it takes.

It's going to be different from any other audition you've done.

To conquer the world stage, just singing well isn't enough.

You have to act with perfect emotions,

using your hands, feet, face, and your entire body.

You understand me, don't you?

You have to be better than me. That's the only way...

I can get compensated for the life I've lived.

I'll never let go of this opportunity you've given me.

I love you, mom.

No wonder you're my daughter.

I knew you would be able to get out of this fiery pit on your own.

I'm so glad I trusted you.

Goodness. Is this for Eun Byeol?

It seems like your relationship with your daughter is going well,

seeing how you're taking such good care of her.

You're not trying to eat with Eun Byeol, are you?

No way.

I have a weaker stomach than you think.

I think Cheong A Constructions...

will soon win the rights for Cheonsoo District.

So I think I might need...

some more money from the Cheong A Group fund.

Again?

I heard Dohae Construction is not an easy rival.

That tiny company can't compete with Cheong A Constructions.

Still, no more.

I only trust the money I have,

not what has already left my hands.

You, even less so.

Eun Byeol. Come have breakfast.

Expanding the company...

It's your wish...

to expand the company and split with me...

as soon as possible.

If we make a successful bid,

it'll be easy to raise stock prices by double or triple.

I bet my life on Cheonsoo District.

It's a great chance to sell the company at the highest price.

And what if it fails?

That's never going to happen.

I need about 50 million dollars to start bribing...

the Cheonsoo District association's officers today.

They are the ones who will fight for us on the front line.

Trust me. This is the last time.

Fine.

But under one condition.

Give me ten percent of Cheong A Group's stocks.

Then I'll consider it.

Ten percent?

Are you a thief? Do you think that makes any sense?

You don't have to do it. I don't want it either.

No other condition will work. Come back when you change your mind.

Eun Byeol, come have breakfast.

That crazy...

Fine. Ten percent.

Here at Cheong A Constructions,

we are planning on procuring a billion dollars...

to use for promotion fees.

Not only will we move the prestigious schools...

in Gangnam's School District Eight to Cheonsoo District,

we are also planning to build Cheonsoo Express,

making the trip from Jongno to Cheonsoo a mere 20 minutes,

and from Apgujeong to Cheonsoo no more than ten.

- How amazing. - Good idea.

The rate would be 100,000 dollars per 3.3m².

But for the members of our association,

it will be 50,000 dollars per 3.3m².

Don't worry about the taxes.

I, former assemblyman Lee Kyu Jin,

will help you minimize your taxes.

But...

is it true that you will guarantee 200 percent in compensation...

if you fail to meet any of your promises?

You don't even trust your husband, do you?

We'll create a nice document...

and even get it notarized.

You can sue us if we don't carry out our promises.

That shows just how confident we are in all of our promises.

Please turn to the last page of our business plan.

(Cashier's check)

We trust you to convince the members well.

A new city that combines the best of Apgujeong and Daechi-dong...

will soon be yours.

- Thank you. - Welcome, Clark.

How long has it been?

I'm so excited to see you again.

So am I.

You've become even more beautiful.

Congratulations on becoming the director.

Thank you for choosing our art hall as your press conference location.

The reporters are waiting. Shall we?

Certainly.

Take good care of him.

- Where's Eun Byeol? - Rehearsing in the waiting room.

Bring her backstage as soon as the press conference ends.

And make sure the reporters don't notice.

(Press Conference for Vienna Philharmonic's Concert in Korea)

The biggest gift for me...

is the news that Ms. Cheon, Director of the Arts Center,

will be returning to the stage.

My heart flutters...

at the excitement of meeting talented new vocalists...

right on this stage.

It is a great honor...

that the Vienna Philharmonic concert led by Conductor Clark Lee...

is the first performance we'll host at Cheong A Arts Center.

Please help us spread the word so that the concert is a success.

I believe we can wrap up the interview about now.

Reporters, please enjoy the snacks provided for you...

in the waiting room next to the stage.

Thank you.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

Shall we go someplace else and have some tea?

Okay.

(Press Conference for Vienna Philharmonic's Concert in Korea)

Who is that? Who's singing without permission?

Excuse me, Clark?

Bae Ro Na.

I didn't realize there were people here.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Someone who's as talented as you...

shouldn't be here preparing food.

I feel like I've just discovered an amazing gem.

Is she a resident musician here?

No.

I didn't even have a chance to audition.

My application was rejected.

Someone who can sing a high F perfectly...

didn't even get a chance to audition?

No way. There must be something wrong.

You mustn't miss out on a gem like this.

If you trust my ears,

please give her one more chance.

You will do so, won't you?

What is your name?

My name is Bae Ro Na.

She's the daughter of the Admissions Murderer!

- I need to get an interview. - That's her, right?

Ms. Bae, may I get an interview with you?

You have been acknowledged by the world-renowned Clark Lee.

How do you feel?

Are you giving me a chance to audition,

Director Cheon?

I would like a clear answer.

Since it's Clark's request,

I guess I have no choice.

I'm truly grateful to Director Cheon for giving me...

a fair chance without having any prejudice against me.

I will prepare well...

to ensure that I repay your kindness.

How will you prepare for the audition?

- What are your plans? - Could you tell us?

Bae Ro Na.

You!

You did that on purpose, didn't you?

You waited behind the stage on purpose.

You did it to steal Eun Byeol's opportunity.

How did you know?

Is that what your dead mother taught you?

How could you act exactly like your mother?

You don't have any right to say that to me.

Thanks to my mother acting as your shadow singer,

you were able to finish your 20th anniversary concert well.

The song my mom sang that day was also "Una Voce Poco Fa."

Do you remember?

Perfect pitch and high F.

You received high praise saying it exceeded your talents...

at the peak of your career.

Are you crazy?

How could you be so brazen and say that?

There's no way to beat you unless I am brazen.

But I guess the skies are on my side.

I even got a chance to be praised by a world-renowned conductor.

This is all thanks to you.

Shut your mouth.

I'm not a kid anymore.

So don't be so confident anymore.

The truth will eventually reveal itself.

Bae Ro Na...

Bae Ro Na!

What an audacious child.

I won't let this go.

Eun Byeol.

You don't need to be disappointed.

I'll set up another meeting with Clark.

Why would I be disappointed?

Ro Na can't beat me anyway.

How can a high school graduate beat a Seoul University of Music student?

I'm going to go at my own pace.

I'll show them how good I am during the auditions.

You're truly incredible, Eun Byeol.

I was worried that you'd be disappointed.

I'm going to see Clark off.

Don't worry about me.

Ms. Jin. It's me. Can we meet tonight?

Thank you for inviting me to Korea.

It's my honor.

Do you like your hotel?

Yes.

If anything is uncomfortable, or if you need anything,

feel free to tell me any time.

Okay.

Oh, right. Did you visit Cheong A Arts Center?

The size and facilities were amazing.

I'm excited to perform there.

Oh, and I met a talented vocalist there.

Her voice was beautiful,

and she had an incredibly wide vocal range.

I think I know who she is.

Is that so?

She was so impressive...

that I recommended her for the Cheong A auditions.

To be honest, I have a favor to ask on her behalf.

That is why I asked to meet you today.

Yes, I'm on my way up.

Okay. I'll see you at the community.

I guess you're here to meet Eun Byeol.

You avoided me despite all my attempts to call you,

and yet I meet you here.

I have nothing to say to a kid like you.

You know why my mom died, don't you?

Are you hiding it for Eun Byeol's sake?

Or are you trying to cover up your own crimes?

Can you move? As you can see, I'm very busy.

Don't run away like a coward and tell me!

What on earth happened that night?

What are you doing? Do you know how priceless this is?

My gosh!

Hey. I'm warning you.

Don't try to get in the way of Eun Byeol.

Eun Byeol is as pure as snow.

The likes of you can't dare to step on or dirty her.

I'm going to put my life on the line to protect her. Got it?

Why did you get me so little?

Well... It's hard to get this medicine these days.

I can't make it to the auditions with this much.

If I don't take my medicine, I get severe headaches,

feel nauseated, and feel like the ground is sinking beneath me.

Get me more.

This is a prescribed drug, so I can't get...

So are you saying you can't get me anymore?

Are you saying you're going to abandon me too?

You're the only one I can ask about this.

Okay. I understand. I'll try my best to get some more.

Don't worry about anything else and focus on your audition.

Bae Ro Na is auditioning too.

Are you worried about her?

How should I help you?

You don't need to help.

I'm going to beat her anyway.

I came out during my lesson.

I need to go back, or my mom will get suspicious.

Wait, Eun Byeol.

I want to live with you again.

Without you, I can't sleep,

I can't eat, and life just isn't fun anymore.

You can't live with that woman, Ms. Cheon.

That woman doesn't love you.

She will continue to harass you and make your life miserable.

The only person in this world...

who loves you unconditionally is me.

You know that.

Eun Byeol! What's wrong, Eun Byeol?

Are you okay? Eun Byeol!

Eun Byeol. Do you think you can walk?

Did you overwork yourself preparing for the audition?

Ms. Jin. When did you get here?

Do you know how long I waited for you?

What took you so long?

Did you bring the drug?

I just gave it to you. There.

When did I get it?

Please be on time, will you?

I couldn't study at all today because of you.

What will you do if I can't get into college?

You're so annoying.

Eun Byeol!

Eun Byeol, talk to me.

What's wrong with you? Eun Byeol!

She's a total mess. Why hasn't Dan Tae called?

(Jin Bun Hong)

What's her problem?

The person you have reached...

You're screening my calls, is that it?

You shouldn't do this to me.

You want to get rid of me already?

I'm sorry, sir.

What do you think you're doing?

Why are you back here? I said to stay low.

So why did you screen my call?

Would you pick up if you were me? You act like a total psycho.

Whatever. I need money.

I gave you money not long ago. Did you spend it all already?

Like you gave me so much.

Should I tell Su Ryeon...

that you killed Yoon Hee?

Or should I go and tell the cops everything?

How many times must I tell you? I didn't kill her.

Should I make sure you can't even eat with that mouth?

Who cares whether or not you killed her?

I just have to make Su Ryeon believe you did.

I'll send the money with Mr. Cho.

Don't do anything rash. Stay low.

Do as I say. Please.

Don't touch me.

Jerks like you make me sick.

I'll never see you as a man even if it kills me,

so if you're interested in me, wake up and smell the coffee.

It was you...

after all.

Why did you do it?

Why did you do it? Why?

How can I ever face Ro Na again?

I need to die, don't I?

Must I remove all of my cursed blood...

to atone for my sins for being born your son?

Put that down...

before I break your arm.

Who are you?

James.

She's Logan's grandmother.

It's nice to meet you.

I apologize for my rudeness. I didn't know you were coming.

What happened?

Have you still not found Logan?

It has been over six months already.

Have you been deceiving us?

The police said...

the bones they found in the car were from an animal, not a person.

Logan is alive.

You know better than I do that he wouldn't die that easily.

Then why can't you find him?

Have you grown weary already?

I even risked my life...

and moved into Joo Dan Tae's home to keep my promise to Logan.

I'm fine stopping here.

I can just kill Dan Tae...

and leave, that's all.

Sorry. I'm really sorry.

I understand.

I'm having Joo Dan Tae's people followed closely,

so we'll find something soon.

Please be patient.

We can't do anything rash. He may retaliate.

You are the only person...

our family can trust.

Mr. Hong. Bring it.

Yes, Mr. Chairman.

Use it to pay for everything.

If we can find Logan,

we don't mind spending our entire fortune.

Logan must be alive.

Yes, ma'am.

Let's go.

That's enough.

Thank you.

Oh my gosh.

What are you doing? What if someone sees you?

Who cares?

People will only find out that we have a secret relationship.

That's not so bad.

Behave. Do you want to die?

Hello.

Stop being stupid. Tell me why you're here.

Logan's family came to see me.

What did they say?

They said if I find Logan,

they're willing to give me their entire fortune.

I thought about it,

and I got the short end of the deal.

You hide behind me and don't do anything.

You want to just sit there and take tens of billions of dollars?

I'm the one doing everything I can to save Logan.

Logan's body's value changes drastically...

based on whether or not he's alive.

I know you want me to take the bullets for you.

If things go south,

I'll be the only one being punished.

So pray hard that Logan survives.

Once I get the money from James,

I'll give you exactly half.

If it's 10 billion, you get 5. If it's 20 billion, you get 10.

Okay?

Get lost.

How dare you threaten me?

You're an amusing woman, Seo Jin.

Why are you working so hard to look good?

You're blindingly beautiful already.

Gosh.

I'm going golfing with Minister Kang's wife.

Do you know how busy I've been, being a supportive wife?

What is this though?

A gift for the wives.

It's made from red ginseng, which is good for the skin.

Don't you think it's perfect for those fancy wives?

That's good. Perfect.

They're deciding on the construction today.

We need to try hard.

Our son got into Seoul University.

Our business is doing well.

And you're so pretty.

How could everything go so well this year?

I'm getting nervous because we're so lucky.

Don't be nervous.

Just enjoy yourself.

Our family's motto is "alternate joy and grief."

How do I look? Does my face shine?

Just so I can be your ideal wife,

I bought new clothes, new handbags,

and even a new car!

Well done. You did so well.

You are so magnanimous.

But you can't swap out your husband, okay?

I'm not like Ms. Cheon.

What brings you here?

In the VIP room of my establishment,

someone set up some hidden cameras.

I don't want to be involved in such matters,

so I came right over.

It was inside a decoration,

and I didn't notice it.

Please take a look.

Come on! Dance!

This is Kang Sin Mo, the Minister of Education.

Come on!

This just came in.

Minister of Education Kang Sin Mo...

is suspected of accepting a large bribe...

in return for promising to move prestigious schools...

from Gangnam's School District Eight to Cheonsoo District,

and prosecutors are looking into it.

The Ministries of Land and Education...

will launch a joint inspection on the overheating...

of investments in Cheonsoo District caused by...

- the rumored school moves. - Kyu Jin is here.

Cheonsoo District's redevelopment plan...

- What's wrong? - Will be reevaluated.

Is it a celebrity scandal?

Minister Kang's recent incident...

gathered the public's interest,

and the redevelopment project is also a big event,

- Minister Kang. - So to ensure it goes smoothly,

- What's going on? - They will investigate thoroughly.

Who was it?

Who tattled?

I'll kill any traitor!

It wasn't me.

It obviously wasn't me.

Chairman Joo. What's going on?

Can we not host any of the prestigious schools?

(Education Organizations Demand Minister Kang's Apology)

The construction company was just announced.

Who got the deal?

It's obviously Cheong A, right?

The thing is...

Dohae Construction got it.

What's this?

Did the subcontractors hear already?

They'll want us to cough up what they gave us!

What should I do?

It's the bank manager.

We have to pay back the first chunk of the loan today.

The loan sharks seem to have found out too.

What happened? What's going on?

How did this happen?

Why won't you answer your phones?

What happened?

We trusted you...

and gave you illegal loans!

I'm about to lose my job now!

Forget everything else.

Pay me back first,

before I level this building!

Before they go bankrupt,

take anything with any value at all!

What can we take? The cups.

- Let go. - This is mine.

Let's take that.

Take what you can!

What's that?

Let go of me!

Let go!

I'm taking what I owe!

Didn't you say you were sure you'd get the deal?

You took a fortune from Cheong A Group.

No harm came to you.

I gave you my shares. Isn't that enough?

What about our plummeting stock prices?

We lost 500 million dollars today.

What'll you do about that?

Did the great Cheong A Construction...

lose out to Dohae Construction?

They were a small company unable to take a project this big.

So what if they are? They got the deal.

I can clean this up.

I'll meet with their representative.

I'll do whatever it takes to take back the deal.

If I can't do that,

I'll buy Dohae Construction.

With what money?

You can't touch a single cent!

Why don't you just hand over all your shares and get lost?

Then I might help you somehow.

(Cheong A Group)

Chairman Joo.

Didn't we really just lose everything?

I put so much into this project!

Didn't you take more than you put in?

Are you insane? You're the spy, aren't you?

Come over here.

It's not the time for that!

It's not over yet.

Dohae Construction must pay 100 million dollars...

within the week to secure the contract.

We just have to make them give up.

If we can't,

our money is gone forever.

That can never happen.

Not after all I did to get here.

Arrange a meeting with Dohae's CEO.

Drag him by the collar if you must.

I'll get the money together.

Where will you go to do that?

Even the loan sharks won't talk to you.

There's someone.

Just one person.

(Haeyeon Group)

I didn't think you'd ask to see me first.

I came to ask for some cash.

I'm in...

- a tight spot. - I heard about that.

Dohae Construction won the Cheonsoo contract.

You got beat by a tiny company.

With your help, I can get back up.

I'll pay whatever interest you want.

How much do you need?

Write it down.

(Cashier's Check)

Thank you.

(100 million dollars)

I'll send it over within an hour.

I don't need any interest.

But I do require collateral.

This is the problem with listed companies.

I can't spend even a dollar on my own.

I don't mind.

What do you want?

Well,

I'll take your penthouse, then.

It's just a formality,

so don't worry.

There won't be a problem if you pay me back.

It's a deal.

I have a meeting and must leave.

Ask my secretary for some tea and have that before you go.

No, it's fine.

I should get going too.

Thanks for your help.

He must be in a bind...

if he thought of taking my money.

Oh, right. Is it not my money?

I'll send you what he asked for.

Thank you, Chairman Song.

Come to me whenever you need something.

You could do with a lot of help.

I will do anything for Ms. Jincheon.

Sir, your guest is here.

Let her in.

Nice to meet you. I'm Cheong A's Chairman Joo Dan Tae.

Why are you here?

It can't be.

That's right.

The lobbyist of Dohae Construction you've been desperate to find.

- That's me. - What?

Let me hear what you have to say.

What are you doing?

What have you been doing behind my back?

Are you the one who did that to Minister Kang?

You... What is your relation with Dohae Construction?

Wasn't Dohae's construction rights what you wanted?

It'd barely be enough if you went on your knees and begged.

Let alone your current attitude.

I know you've poured in an astronomical amount of money...

to Cheonsoo District.

You're okay with blowing that up?

Do you want to die?

Are you begging me to kill you or what?

Give me the construction rights.

I won't. Why would I?

I will watch you fail.

Give up. You don't even have Logan.

Do you think you can beat me?

Shut up!

How dare you say his name?

Why are you so sensitive?

He died because he had to.

I still remember it as clear as day.

The creepy metal sound.

The sound of your handcuffs.

You really want to die, don't you?

(Cheonsoo District Area 27 Redevelopment Plan Execution)

Who are you, mister? What are you doing?

No! My mom and sister are sleeping!

I warned you I'd bulldoze it today.

These homeless beggars.

Bulldoze it.

(There are still people left! Come up with relocation measures!)

Hey!

No! My mom and sister are still in there!

Let go of me!

Mom! Jun Hee! Come out!

Don't tear down my house!

Who are you to destroy my house?

This little beggar.

Mom! Jun Hee!

Hey. Don't report this to the chairman of Simoon Construction.

Keep it a secret.

Mom! Jun Hee!

Mom!

Jun Ki.

Jun Ki!

You must live.

Make lots of money, be successful,

build yourself a nice house.

You must live...

as a rich man.

No. No, mom.

Don't die.

You can't die and leave me all alone.

Jun Hee, wake up.

Please breathe.

(There are still people left! Come up with relocation measures!)

(Redevelopment area)

Mom.

Mom!

No!

What is it?

What is it?

Who are you?

Who are you?

Show yourself!

Are you trying to kill me?

Why? Are you scared?

I'll give you one last chance...

to repent before you go to the fiery pit.

Stop it!

Confess that you killed Yoon Hee.

Admit you killed Logan!

You crazy witch!

My goodness...

Even until the very end, you have no conscience.

You are not worth living.

I'll stop you from doing anything more from now on.

Shim Su Ryeon. You crazy...

Stop it!

- Hurry up! - Seok Hoon!

What have you been doing...

that made mom act like that?

I didn't do anything.

Your mom is just blaming me...

because Oh Yoon Hee and Logan died.

I did nothing wrong.

Anyway,

I thought you just hated me.

But you can't deny your own blood, can you?

That's why you came to save me, right?

I didn't save you because I like you.

I just couldn't let mom kill you.

You can be more honest.

By nature, you and your mother don't suit one another,

because you're my son.

How could you possibly get along with Shim Su Ryeon?

That woman hates you just as much as she hates me.

Every time she sees you, she'll be reminded of me.

Do you think she could love you as a son?

Look.

Stop deceiving yourself.

Admit that I'm your father.

Then I can give you anything.

Promise me one thing.

Promise you will never hurt mom.

Then...

I won't push you any longer.

I'll live the life...

you want me to.

Fine.

I promise you.

Come work for me.

Take time off that measly school of yours.

These are drugs that Ms. Kim had.

It seemed like she was going to give them to Eun Byeol.

Can you help me find out what drugs they are?

I will.

I'll be auditioning for Cheong A.

Really? Congratulations.

You can endure it, right?

I want to be acknowledged for my talents no matter what.

If I want to restore my mom's honor,

that's the only thing I can do.

Seok Hoon.

Haven't you gone to school yet?

I'm taking time off from school.

I thought I'd get busy once I started working.

You're taking time off? Why?

Seok Hoon.

Did something happen to Seok Hoon?

What kind of job is he starting?

He wants to work for his dad's company.

He wants to learn the business.

What? Seok Hoon said that?

Seok Hoon.

Stop right there.

Don't come near me.

Come to your senses.

Why are you doing this too?

You should stay by your mom's side.

I've finally come to my senses.

I was being childish all this time.

I was mistaken into thinking...

I could do something for you and my mom.

But it turns out I'm not all that different from my dad.

My life is more important to me than anyone else's.

Why are you acting like this all of a sudden?

We would never work anyway.

My dad tried to kill you,

so what could we do?

Let's break up.

I can't do this anymore.

Are you being serious?

Yes, I'm being serious.

I'm not going to acknowledge you from now on,

and I'm not going to help you if something happens.

Let's go back to when we didn't know each other.

I don't care if you resent me or hate me.

I think that would be best for both of us.

Okay.

Let's do that...

if that's what you want.

But Seok Hoon.

It's not your fault.

We couldn't choose who our parents are.

So...

you can put down any burdens you have.

I'm sorry.

Ro Na.

I'm really sorry.

Hello?

Yes. I'm her daughter.

We're Oh Yoon Hee's family.

We received a call and came.

You can speak with that detective over there.

- Thank you. - No problem.

This belongs to Ms. Oh Yoon Hee, right?

Yes. That's my mom's watch.

Where did you find it?

This man found it while working on the construction at the cliff.

Thank you.

This is the watch that my mom was wearing in her last moments,

but now it's broken.

Can you fix it?

It must be fixed.

The data might've been damaged upon impact,

but I'll try my best to restore it.

The watch was able to record sounds.

It was restored well.

Somebody help me!

Su Ryeon.

Su Ryeon, do you hear me?

You must listen to this.

Su Ryeon, your daughter is alive.

Your biological daughter is alive.

Seok Kyung is your biological daughter.

Seok Kyung is Seol A's twin sister.

I'm so sorry.

- Take care of my daughter... - Seok Kyung...

- My dear Ro Na... - Seok Kyung is my daughter?

Who are you?

Isn't this Italy?

What is she talking about? Italy?

- She said she's in Italy. - What are you doing here?

Who brought me here?

Bring the person in charge.

How dare you people...

Did you kidnap me or something?

Do you know who my dad is?

Don't you know how to show respect?

How dare you talk to me like that?

(Clean body, Clean spirit)

Don't come near me.

If any of you lay a hand on me,

I'm going to kill all of you.

Don't come near me.

Don't come anywhere near me!

Don't come near me!

You have to wake up.

I'm going to save you no matter what.

Logan. Do you hear me?

If you can hear me, move your hand.

I'm Ha Yoon Chul. You can trust me.

Su Ryeon...

Can you bring Su Ryeon here?

(The Penthouse 3)

We'll start the auditions...

for the resident musicians for Cheong A Arts Center.

You want to reveal the truth behind Ro Na's mom's death?

You have to remember it!

If I have the blood of the demon, I should become a demon too.

Good job, Logan.

- You remember me, right? - Is Joo Dan Tae done for now?

What did you do to Seok Kyung?

Your biological daughter? I'm going to kill her.

I'll make sure you won't lay a hand on Seok Kyung ever again.

I'm going to get rid of Shim Su Ryeon forever.
