You.

You're a father, right?

It's not too late.

Do what's right for Seung Ho.

Do what you should do as a father.

I'm begging you.

I tried to take care of it on my own,

but detectives from other stations are here as well.

There were too many eyes on me. I had no choice.

What about the press?

There's one internet journalist that has been killing time here.

Wait outside.

Why?

I have nothing to say to you.

You should go back.

Listen carefully.

You have been suffering from schizophrenia for several years.

It means that you're not normal.

Schizophrenia?

After your best friend committed suicide, you were extremely shocked.

That's when you had a delusion that you were the hit-and-run suspect.

And you even went on to think that you killed Hyun Wook, too.

That's why such ridiculous things are happening to us.

Do you understand?

I killed Hyun Wook.

Do you think people will believe such a lie?

It's the truth.

Don't be a fool.

I'm going to get you out of here in 48 hours.

- So you... - Please call Lawyer Park for me.

What?

I won't...

talk with anyone else.

Seung Ho.

(Investigation Room)

We'll send in a medical record within the next hour.

Schizophrenia is the cause of his delusions and perjury.

I will talk to Seung Ho in private.

We're still under investigation.

I'm the father of Dong Woo who died 15 years ago.

And I'm also the lawyer of the deceased Kang Hyun Wook.

I'm the suspect...

of the hit-and-run from 15 years ago.

Although your son could have lived,

I ran away like a coward.

I wish...

I has not run away then.

I regretted it every night.

And?

Did you kill Kang Hyun Wook, too?

He knew that I was the suspect...

and threatened me.

So I murdered him out of impulse.

You didn't murder Hyun Wook.

It's not you who killed him.

I killed him.

Don't take me for a fool.

It's not hard to prove that you weren't at...

the scene of his death.

Then try me.

Call records and security footages will tell me where you were.

I tried to call Hyun Wook to meet him,

and we went to places with no cameras.

There's no point in trying to make false claims.

I will prove...

that you testified falsely.

I'm telling you I killed him. What's wrong with you?

I'm willing to accept my punishment, so why are you doing this?

Because it's not the truth.

If you really want to ask Dong Woo for forgiveness,

you should pay back for crimes that are rightfully yours.

Don't torture yourself...

and run away like a coward.

Think about...

what you've done.

And how...

cowardly you were!

Don't forget it for the rest of your life!

Remember it...

and live on doing the best you can!

Just because you asked for forgiveness...

and admitted to the crime doesn't mean you're forgiven.

It's not over!

The only way to be truly forgiven...

is to carry the guilt...

with you...

for the rest of your life...

and live as hard as you can.

I'll watch you until the end.

I'll watch how you're living.

And how...

you beg for forgiveness...

as you move forward.

I'll be watching.

I'm sorry.

I'm really...

sorry.

Are you saying you saw the man walking out from Hope Market?

There wasn't just 1. There were 2.

Two?

When I told him that the murder weapon might have been a bat,

he told me this.

I saw a really tall man with a baseball bat.

He was extremely tall. He was like a giant.

Do you remember his face?

No, not really.

But he was so tall...

that the man with him looked short.

Why didn't you report this 15 years ago?

I was only seven.

I saw it from afar when I went out without my mum's permission.

I didn't want to get scolded, so I only told the detective.

Your testimony wasn't mentioned in the case report.

They ignored him because he was only seven.

I was 12, but they ignored me, too.

That's really helpful. Good job.

Lawyer Park!

Why did you publicly announce about your Alzheimer's?

What do you think about people calling it a performance...

for you to get the approval on the Hope Market retrial?

- Hold on! - Lawyer Park!

- Please! - Can I get a comment?

- Sir! - Lawyer Park!

Will you take the case if the retrial is approved?

- Lawyer Park! - Can I get a word?

Does Gwon Myung Soo know that you have Alzheimer's?

Are you sure Gwon Myung Soo is innocent?

When did you get diagnosed with Alzheimer's?

- Please say a few words! - Over here!

The retrial...

Can you say something?

Is that true?

Can you say a few words?

- Lawyer Park! - Sir!

What are your plans?

- What do you think about... - Lawyer Park!

- Lawyer Park! - Lawyer Park!

Sir!

Lawyer Park!

- Lawyer Park! - Say a few words!

- Sir! - Lawyer Park!

- Lawyer Park! - How is your condition right now?

Lawyer Park!

- As for... - Please say something!

- Lawyer Park! - Wait!

- Please comment! - Lawyer Park!

- Lawyer Park! - Lawyer Park!

- Please! - Just one comment, please!

Hurry up and close the door!

Isn't that our law firm?

- Look. - Hold on.

(Son of a famous law firm President comes clean about a hit-and-run.)

(Lee has surrendered himself and is willing...)

(As the real criminal of the "Yellow Angel Hit-and-Run" case...)

(Written by Joo Sang Pil)

Are you in?

(Wife)

Yes, it's me.

I was wondering if you're okay.

You must be getting a lot of calls from the media.

I'm okay.

But did any reporters come...

to our house?

We're getting a lot of calls, but I'm not picking up.

Don't. And just in case,

don't send Jeong Woo to the academy today.

It's going to be hectic for a while.

Don't worry about us.

- I'll tell the kids. - Jeong Woo.

Also, you should call your mum.

She didn't call you,

but she called me a few times.

I will.

Tell Dad I miss him a lot.

Jeong Woo says he misses you a lot.

Tell him I miss him, too.

Okay.

I better go.

Did you read the article by any chance?

Which article?

It's too late...

to cover the hit-and-run.

But luckily,

Seung Ho has claimed that he was the one hiding the truth.

Before things get worse,

you need to make the world know...

that you didn't know a thing.

You and I were the ones who stopped him from turning himself in.

So? Do you want to sacrifice yourself, too?

This isn't the right situation to use that word.

I'll take care of it.

Cancel his schooling abroad.

It will look like he's running away.

The ones trying to run away are us, not Seung Ho.

When did you come?

Just now.

Then why didn't you say anything?

Because I like watching you.

Mum.

Yes?

I was...

a proud son to you.

But now,

I became a burden to you in public.

I'm sorry.

What are you talking about?

You're always the one who gives me energy.

I'm always proud of you.

And today,

I was proud of you more than ever.

You're not a criminal.

There's no reason to hide.

You did well.

You're my son,

but you're very respectable.

You're always only...

complimenting me.

There isn't a thing...

I can talk badly about you.

You're perfect no matter how...

and where I look.

My son.

You are...

the best son in the world.

Even if I'm born again,

I still want to be your son.

And...

I won't get sick then.

I'll be healthy...

and...

I'll treat you well.

Okay.

I hate you.

I can't forgive you.

For 15 years,

I hated and despised you while searching for you.

But...

you're nothing but a weakling that I can't even hate.

It's driving me crazy.

I'm sorry.

What makes me more crazy is...

that Dong Woo...

will forever be a scar on you.

I want...

Dong Woo...

to be a hope for you, not a scar.

You gave us pain that would never wash away,

but I want Dong Woo...

to be your hope.

If you're considerate of him,

go out into the world and find what you should do.

That's the chance...

and forgiveness...

Dong Woo is giving to you.

Do you want a glass?

What's your plan?

The statute of limitations expired for the hit-and-run.

And the murder is a false confession, so he'll be released.

It's noisy right now, but people will soon forget.

I'm a little down. Do you want to go get a drink?

Was Kang Hyun Wook's murder...

ordered by your mother?

I know you would've tried to cover for Seung Ho,

but the man I know would never commit murder.

I'm telling you right now. Hyun Wook committed suicide.

I'll meet with the clients.

I need you to hold fort here at the office.

Lawyer Han.

Don't drink too much.

Dad!

Goodness!

Did you have a good day, Princess?

Yes.

You don't have a fever.

What?

Our concierge said that your head is hurting.

I'll explain to you later, okay?

Don't you have something to show Dad?

Oh, right.

You must be tired from today.

I'm all right.

Sorry you couldn't go to the academy because of me.

I rather not go.

You were so awesome today. You're the best.

It's a gift.

(Dad, Mum, I love you more than the sky and the Earth.)

What a great drawing.

It took me two whole hours.

Thank you.

Dad, don't be sick. Okay?

Okay.

I'll pack up the rest and move it over.

Okay.

I don't need to say goodbye, right?

Of course. I'll follow you soon.

Me, too.

Goodness.

- Let me get that. - No.

It's my stuff.

It's my burden to carry.

Please take care.

That hair looks good.

Thank you.

Be healthy.

Every day, good day!

To find out the truth about my son after 15 years...

is not only embarrassing...

as a father, but also as a lawyer.

I heard that your son is an indirect victim...

of the Kang Hyun Wook case.

My son was suffering from depression for a long time.

It must have been from the guilt.

That seems to have caused schizophrenia and his perjury.

I believe the police has confirmed this as well.

You're saying that he has nothing to do with his death.

Of course not.

Lastly, can you say a few words to the victim's family?

What can I say to console...

the pains of losing a child?

I sincerely apologise to the family of the victim.

I'll take full responsibility for what has happened.

And I'll be resigning from everything I'm associated with...

and will provide free legal counselling...

to those who have experienced cases similar to the victim.

(To Our Beloved Park Dong Woo)

You may interrogate.

10 years ago,

during an arrest of a drug addict and dealer Cheon Min Gyu,

do you remember him claiming...

that he saw the real murderer of the Hope Market case...

and that he knew who it was?

Of course.

And what actions did you take?

I reported it to the district's police station...

and requested indictment to the Supreme Prosecutors' Office.

Then why didn't an investigation take place?

After an interrogation with the police,

Cheon Min Gyu went back on his word.

He went back on his word?

Yes.

And they dropped the charges on him.

Are you saying they dropped the charges of a drug user and dealer?

- That's correct. - Do you...

remember the Prosecutor who dropped the charges?

It was Lawyer Han Jeong Won from Taesun Law Firm.

I'd like to call Han Jeong Won up as a witness.

There were two men. One of them was...

extremely tall compared to the other.

I think he was at least 2m tall.

Did any other characteristics stick out?

He was holding a baseball bat.

The tall man was holding a baseball bat?

Yes. And he drove away in a very expensive car.

I think he's rich.

Objection.

At the time of the incident, the witness was 7 years old.

Please reconsider the validity of the witness' claims.

He's right. The witness was only 7 years old.

But had the police listened to this young boy then,

the defendant would have never wasted 15 years in jail.

Don't you know that a child's testimony has no legal force?

I'm not talking about validity. I'm saying that we should...

open our ears to the truth.

I, myself, ignored the defendant's plea 15 years ago...

and turned my back on the truth.

That's because the prejudice I had towards criminals...

had blinded me.

Prosecutors, the police and myself...

are responsible for neglecting the defendant in jail.

We're accomplices.

He's insulting the court.

To me, it seems like he's repenting.

You may proceed.

Based on Na Hye Min...

and our current witness' testimonies,

I'd like to request for additional witnesses.

The names are Shin Young Jin and Cha Won Seok.

Why do I have to go to court?

This case is to determine Gwon Myung Soo's offence.

It's not about finding the actual murderer.

Are you saying that I should go if Tae Seok orders me to?

If you don't go, they will think it's suspicious.

And unless Tae Seok cancels the request,

they'll get a warrant to take you in.

You should persuade him.

Tell him to withdraw the request.

Why would he listen to me?

Then kill him like you killed Kang Hyun Wook.

Did you think I would let you off that easily?

You didn't forget that...

I have the USB, right?

That can't prove anything more than the hit-and-run.

The public won't agree with you.

Once they hear the conversation,

they will think that you were the one who murdered Hyun Wook.

No evidence proves that you're the suspect of the Hope Market case.

Instead of worrying about being called as a witness,

you need to make sure that Cha Won Seok keeps his mouth shut.

You need to work on...

the request withdrawal first.

I'll discuss this with your father.

If you make me stand in court, witness or not,

I'll leak the USB.

Understand?

(Hope Market)

It's cold!

What do you need?

Do you only have this kind of water?

That's it.

What about cigarettes?

I don't sell any.

50 cents.

Can you pay? I left my wallet at home.

How can you pay with a huge bill for a 50 cents water?

That's all I have.

Forget it then. Just leave.

What do you sell then?

You little punk! Where did you learn your manners?

Are you an orphan?

I'll check if I have any coins in the car.

Gosh.

Young Jin!

How dare you yell at me?

Get in.

Why isn't he picking up?

The number you're calling is currently...

This bat...

Go burn it right now.

But it's your favourite bat.

I know.

Seriously.

I'm going crazy.

Here.

This picture was taken on the same day as the Hope Market murder.

How did you find this?

Jeong Woo found it online.

He's better than me.

I know.

Have some cold tea.

It must be tough doing multiple jobs, right?

Not at all.

I'm happy now that I'm in a different office.

On top of that,

even the papers feel softer and smoother.

Your sense of humour has improved.

It's Young Jin.

Right.

It's very likely that particular bat is the murder weapon.

The baseball bat became the murder weapon.

Really?

During the Korean Series, Young Jin was studying abroad.

During the beginning of the year after,

in other words, in February 2001, when Hope Market murder...

took place, he came back to Korea and won the bat as an award.

And the important point is?

The statute of limitations for the Hope Market murder case hasn't passed.

That's right.

After murdering, Young Jin went to the US...

and stayed there for two more years.

I know that much.

Park Tae Seok speaking.

It's me.

Where are you right now?

I called to say goodbye.

Where have you been?

I've been here and there.

Are you eating these days?

I'm going to Nepal.

Why?

There's something I have to do there.

Lawyer Park.

Stay healthy.

Was that Seung Ho?

Yes.

Are the ones who murdered Hyun Wook still not talking?

They'll never admit to it.

About a month ago,

your boys were arrested for abusing and kidnapping Hyun Wook.

Do you remember?

After they've been forwarded to the Prosecutors,

I heard that you gave the order to murder Hyun Wook.

The person who gave the order to you...

was President Lee Chan Moo of Taesun Law Firm.

I checked the call logs as well.

I've talked to President Lee...

a few times regarding business.

Regarding business?

Yes.

Don't make me laugh.

Let's say...

what you're saying is right.

Do you think I'd admit...

that I was ordered to murder someone?

When I'm in trouble, the only person...

I can depend on is him.

Don't you agree?

Since you came this far,

why don't you have a drink?

We have a report saying that prostitution and selling of...

narcotics took place at this establishment.

Let's start discussing those first.

Be my guest.

Let's take a look at your office first.

Right.

I'm here with a search warrant today.

But I'll return with an arrest warrant next time, so hang on tight.

I'll talk to the Prosecutors, so don't worry.

Just keep your boys quiet.

Have you heard from Seung Ho yet?

No.

I have people searching for him,

but it's not easy.

It's a list of lawyers...

who can take my place.

They're all competent...

and ambitious.

Are you going to resign?

In a few days,

I have to stand as a witness...

for Gwon Myung Soo's retrial.

Why does it matter?

Thank you for everything.

Why don't you take some time off if you're having a hard time?

I'll wait for you.

I won't be...

coming back.

I'm sorry for not staying by your side...

at a time like this.

In the end,

I have no one left.

Honey, what's wrong?

Well...

I...

I can't find...

the restroom.

What's...

What's wrong with me?

It's all right.

Come with me.

I'll wait for you.

I'm okay now.

Go back to bed.

Go on.

As expected,

Young Jin and Won Seok refused to stand as witnesses due to business.

Lawyer Park?

I think it'd be better...

if you lead the second trial.

What do you mean?

You worked hard to prepare it.

If I do it,

I might ruin it.

You may feel pressured,

but please take the lead.

Please stay in charge until the end.

I don't have the confidence.

I know you're having a hard time,

but you should finish this trial.

If you prove Myung Soo is innocent...

and that Young Jin is the culprit,

we can bring Hwang Tae Sun back to court.

If that happens,

we have a chance...

to prove that Hyun Wook was murdered.

That's why I'd like you to lead it.

I don't want to.

Please lead it until the end.

You've done great so far...

and you will continue to.

Please consider it for Dong Woo...

and be brave.

I'm here to see President Shin.

Please leave your briefcase and phone behind.

Pardon me.

You may go in.

Goodness.

Goodness.

I heard you asked...

Young Jin and Dr Cha to stand as witnesses for an irrelevant case.

They're necessary witnesses for Gwon Myung Soo's retrial,

so that's why I asked.

I know you well.

Don't you have an ulterior motive...

to call Young Jin to court?

What do you mean?

It's already been 15 years!

Let it go.

Is the missing Cheon Min Gyu already dead?

What is this?

It's enough to establish...

a law firm that's larger than Taesun.

I think...

you and I know each other well enough.

What I mean is...

to stand by my side to support me again.

Are you afraid that I'll act on my conscience?

It won't be beneficial to you.

Why would you do that?

You must have...

forgotten that I have Alzheimer's.

I'm no longer interested in benefiting myself.

I'm only interested in...

getting back what I've lost.

(Bathroom)

Dad.

I'm coming.

(Master Bedroom)

You look great today, Dad.

I dressed up for an important trial today.

I wish I could see you in court.

Let's go see him next time.

Okay.

- I'll get going. - Honey.

You can do it. Stay strong.

As a Prosecutor,

you were in charge of...

Cheon Min Gyu who was under arrest related to narcotics.

Is that true?

Yes.

During the investigation,

were you aware that Min Gyu said he knew the culprit...

of the Hope Market murder case?

Yes.

What measures did you take?

As I decided that his testimony lacked credibility,

I didn't take any measures.

Why did you decide it lacked credibility?

He was a user of narcotics.

So I thought he said that...

in order to avoid getting punishment.

As a habitual...

user of narcotics...

Lawyer Park?

Are you all right?

Yes.

I'm all right.

You did not...

prosecute...

Cheon Min Gyu...

who was a habitual user...

of narcotics.

What was the reason?

Were you under pressure not to prosecute him?

Objection.

Please answer the question.

I made the decision...

on my own for the Prosecutors.

What do you mean "for the Prosecutors"?

I didn't want the fact...

that a Prosecutor placed an innocent man in prison...

and neglected a murderer...

to be known.

In other words, do you agree that the prisoner is innocent,

and the culprit is someone else?

Yes.

That's all, Your Honour.

Reporter Joo!

Lawyer Park asked me to give this to you.

It's a watch that can record videos.

He asked to return the watch to him.

Of course.

The word "hope"...

will be remembered as a positive word.

However, to this man, the word "hope"...

will remind him of despair.

He went to Hope Market to buy some ramyeon,

but his life was ruined...

in an instant.

He's also at fault...

for leaving behind the murdered woman...

and for running away with the stolen money.

I'm sure he thought of his mother who had been postponing...

surgery as she couldn't afford it.

However, that doesn't justify his wrong doings.

But serving 15 years in prison...

was too severe of a punishment for what he had done.

If he had been a son of someone in power,

his life would have been different.

Therefore,

as his lawyer in charge of his first trial,

I'd like...

to ask...

for his forgiveness.

There was no one who listened to this poor man's cry for help.

There was not even one person.

The ones who took away hope from the defendant...

include me,

the Prosecutors and the police,

who are supposed to fight for justice...

and people in power.

All of us...

are responsible for taking away hope...

from the defendant.

Although we can never compensate...

for the 15 years he spent in prison,

the false charge of murder...

should be removed.

I hope...

we can show...

that there is still hope left in this world to the defendant...

and to our children.

I'd like to ask Your Honour...

to bring back justice and the truth...

we've lost in court 15 years ago.

The fact that Defendant Gwon Myung Soo was engaged...

in the murder case of Hope Market 15 years ago...

still seems suspicious to me.

However, it's possible that a third party could be the murderer.

According to Section 325 of The Code of Criminal Procedure,

he's sentenced as the following.

The defendant is...

innocent.

Thank goodness.

You did well.

Is that all?

Don't think about anything silly.

This is amazing!

There is big news on the internet.

Why are you here?

Listen to this.

It's already been 15 years!

Let it go.

Is the missing Cheon Min Gyu already dead?

Are you surprised?

- What is this? - It's enough to establish...

a law firm that's larger than Taesun Law Firm.

Shin Young Jin will be arrested in no time.

President Shin will also be investigated by the police.

You should get ready, too, Mother.

Get ready for what?

Both you and President Shin hid the truth about Young Jin's crime.

You also gave the order to kill Hyun Wook.

Prosecutors are putting pressure on Mr Heo.

The truth about Hyun Wook's death will be revealed soon.

What are you trying to say?

You said you did all of this for me.

I need you to make a sacrifice for me and the law firm.

Please take responsibility.

Wait a minute.

- There he is! - He's coming out!

- Is what President Shin said true? - Is there anything you want to say?

- Over here! - Do you accept it's true?

This is a conspiracy and a scheme.

The truth will be revealed through the investigation by the police.

How do you feel now?

Could you answer it?

- How do you feel? - What is the truth?

Are you guilty of the charges?

Please say something.

I was preparing myself mentally.

But I think the symptoms are getting worse these days.

He must've been under a lot of pressure due to the retrial.

I knew it'd be a lot of pressure,

but it was so important to him...

that I couldn't stop him.

If he's too tired, the symptoms may worsen.

The body must rest for the brain to rest.

I'll have him take some time off.

Right.

Tae Seok...

asked me to give this to you.

I think he meant...

to give it to you when symptoms are worse than now.

But I think it'd be better...

for you to keep it.

Young Joo.

By the time you listen to this,

my condition...

may have gotten worse that...

I wouldn't even recognise you.

I remember the first time I got lost.

At that moment,

life was full of despair.

I resented the world,

and I had no hope.

You know what's interesting?

These days,

I believe that having Alzheimer's is a blessing to me.

That's probably...

because...

you're with me...

as well as our children.

It's because I have a family.

I can't express...

how grateful I am...

to you.

In here, there's a document for...

the loan and a document that authorises you...

to be my proxy.

There's also a contract with a sanatorium where I can stay.

Consider this...

as my last wish.

I hope you'll do as I wish.

Meeting you...

was a blessing in my life.

Young Joo.

I love you.

- Hello. - Hello.

What's wrong?

Why did you bring my shoe?

Your shoes.

I've been walking around like this without knowing.

Is that why you're here?

You didn't have to come all the way here.

(Dong Woo's Chair)

Here you go, Yeon Woo.

Isn't it great?

Right?

It's so delicious. What about Dad?

Your children are beautiful.

Honey, they're Jeong Woo and Yeon Woo.

It's me.

Right.

Seo Young Joo?

Yes, Park Tae Seok.

I must have been out of it again.

You're back now.

Eun Sun and Prosecutor Kang will be here soon.

Life took an unfortunate turn unexpectedly.

However,

at the ending moment of despair when I thought everything was over,

- there was another beginning. - Come on, Jeong Woo!

My last hope...

is to never forget the love...

of my family and friends.

Also,

I believe I won't.

"No good thing..."

"ever dies."

Right now,

I'm happier...

than ever.

(The end is hope, so be as happy as you can.)

(Thank you for watching Memory.)
