[Queen of Masks]

[February 18, 2013. The day of the incident.]

So this is the symbol of the secret club.

Try it on.

Wow!

- You look cool. - Why don't you wear it, too, then?

I don't need stuff like that. I have this.

By the way, Jake, why is Yoo Na being sacrificed tonight?

She's still my finacée's friend.

I'm trying to make you a king.

- A king? - If you have a group of women,

you become their king.

You're such a devil, Jake.

Kill me! Kill me, you cripple!

[Queen of Masks]

[Episode 7]

Excuse me, excuse me! Why are you here in the middle of the night?

You're the devil who harasses children!

I will punish you in the name of justice!

What brings you here?

What brings you all the way here in the middle of the night?

Well, it was reported that an illegal secret club was being run here.

This is an orphanage where children live.

It's a sacred place. What do you mean, an illegal secret club?

As you can see, we were putting on a masque performance for the children.

It's called "The Angle's Arrow."

Since the volunteers have day jobs,

we had to do it late at night.

Isn't life still worth living

since we have kind people like them?

I'm sorry.

Why don't you all join us?

I can give you these masks since you came.

Attorney Do.

You were wrong about both places?

Let's forget about the orphanage,

but what about Ace Bar that we even got a warrant for?

What will I tell the prosecutor and the judge who trusted me and got us the warrant?

I'm sorry.

I didn't think this would happen.

So what if you're sorry?

I'm about to get fired!

Thank goodness they agreed not to make an issue out of this.

Otherwise, I really...

Chief, I'm certain that there's a suspicious

organization in the Gunggok district.

I will catch them no matter what.

Also, you will take all of the glory from it.

- We'll get going. - Thank you!

Bye!

I got a call from the informant I planted at the Gunggok Police Station.

They'll apparently raid us on the 18th at night.

Stay open as usual.

Remove everything that might look bad.

Yes.

Principal, let's put on a masque performance on the night of the 18th at the orphanage.

Yeah.

Everything's okay there, right?

We're in big trouble.

We might be awarded for following the law too well.

Don't let your guard down, and do a good job all the way to the end.

[Gunggok Police Station]

Attorney Do.

Isn't it strange?

Ace Bar. We couldn't even find any expired food, let alone any drug dealing going on.

Could it be that Go Yoo Na lied?

Ace Bar was the Angels' Club?

How did you find that out?

Did you meet with Song Je Hyeok by chance?

I got the information by selling out my daughter.

You really have to catch him.

No way.

She said she got the information by selling out her daughter, even.

Song Je Hyeok might be blackmailing her by using her daughter.

She doesn't care about anything other than her daughter.

I'm not sure if this is okay.

Look quickly before anyone sees us.

Na Na.

You remember me, right?

We met with your dad.

Yes!

Do you want me to play with you?

Yes!

Okay.

Alright. Should we go for it?

What's this?

Wow, it's flashing!

Okay...

Ma'am! It's all done. Bring Na Na over.

Ma'am!

[I will take Na Na to the playground]

Why go to the playground in the evening?

Be careful!

Ta-da!

Aigoo, aigoo, aigoo!

Let me show you something.

What is it?

Do you know who this is?

It's you!

Then...

who do you think this pretty baby is?

[Gunggok Hospital]

Blood. Here.

Kang Hoo.

Are you awake now?

It's okay. We're at the hospital.

Do you remember, by chance?

You almost got hit by my car.

The doctor said you're okay except for the bruise on your knee.

Do you want to go home now?

- Yes. - Let's call your family first.

I think I can just go because I live nearby.

Where do you live?

Do you know who this is?

It's you!

Then, who do you think this pretty baby is?

I don't know.

Who is it?

[Song Je Hyeok]

Thank you, Yoo Na.

Thanks to you, I was able to strike a blow at Do Jae Yi.

What are you talking about?

Strike a blow at Jae Yi?

You said you wanted to meet so you can see Na Na.

But were you ultimately trying to take my club?

By business,

do you mean that club or whatever?

Just don't frequent Ace Bar.

I don't want you to get hurt, either.

You're totally mistaken about something.

Do you think Do Jae Yi would even care about Na Na?

Her only interest is me and taking the club.

You're being used!

I don't care about Do Jae Yi, either!

I only care about taking Na Na back.

Because I'm her biological mother!

I think it'd be tricky to take Na Na back.

She already has a very good mother.

What?

Don't try to see Na Na again.

You and I are over now.

Song Je Hyeok. Song Je Hyeok!

Yeon Ah, wait for me inside.

Take care!

Thank you for taking care of our child.

What brings you all the way here?

Because I wanted to look into someone.

It's someone who volunteered here 10 years ago.

His name is Gi Do Shik.

Do you remember him?

By Gi Do Shik, do you mean Gi Yoon Chul's late son?

I started working here just a year ago.

I've never met him in person.

Makes sense.

I suppose it was a wasted trip.

Why did you want to look into Gi Do Shik?

A friend of mine is interested in politics.

He said he'd like to become friendly with Assemblyman Gi.

He thought learning stories about his son Gi Do Shik

might help to win Assemblyman Gi over. So he asked me to find out for him.

I'll ask my employees, too.

You must be busy. Thank you for your time.

I'll get going then.

[Lee Yeon Ah] This is ahjussi's number.

As I told you earlier,

make sure to contact me if something happens, okay?

What an annoying bastard.

Do you know who this is?

It's you!

Then, who do you think this pretty baby is?

Mom!

I took a bath!

Yes. Well done, my girl.

Ma'am.

I'll go home now, then.

Talk to me for a moment before you go.

Why did you drink so much last night?

You were totally drunk out of your mind

when you came home. Seriously!

I saw your husband at a hotel.

He was going up to a room.

It was even the most luxurious presidential floor.

Your husband was a host before you got married, right?

Maybe the mutt hasn't gotten over his old habit.

You said you're taking cooking classes, right?

But your cooking is not improving.

It's the same as usual.

It's because you always want kimchi beansprout soup for a hangover.

I'll make a traditional meal for the king next time.

For now, here.

Leo.

- Are you anxious, by chance? - What?

Anxious? About what?

My position at work weakened since the hanok hotel is no longer happening.

Are you anxious that I won't be able to support you?

Don't be like that, Noona! You're making it

sound like I love you for money.

You know that I love you because you're pretty.

Pretty? There are pretty girls everywhere.

What are you talking about?

I've never seen anyone prettier than you ever since I was born.

Noona, do you know why I text you whenever I get a chance?

I worry someone else might steal you away because you're so pretty.

Leo Cha.

I can make a living and feed you, no matter what!

So you should just trust me, okay?

Don't do anything silly.

Yes, ma'am! Got it!

Can I have some water?

Yes!

Water!

Mr. Jung, let's meet up.

Here you go.

Thank you.

You know you have to wash thoroughly, right?

So pretty!

Where's the nanny?

Is she off today?

She won't come anymore.

I let her go.

Why?

Since you're in charge of the foundation

and the arts and culture village is no longer happening,

the only thing I have is this family now.

I'll do everything from now on.

With my own hands.

Without any mistakes.

Don't overdo it, okay?

Your ex-wife...

Do you know where she is, by chance?

I said she was in prison in the US.

She might have gotten out of prison.

She might've come to Korea, too.

Why are you curious about that?

You're running for mayor.

Your personal life will get revealed, too.

It'd be a problem if she suddenly showed up and said weird things.

I don't think that'd happen.

How are you so certain?

Do you know what she's up to, by chance?

No, not at all...

I have no idea!

Nice to meet you.

I didn't know Yoo Jung had a friend like you.

I'm disappointed that you didn't know me.

We used to be pretty close.

I guess you still don't know each other very well.

If so...

can I...

not worry about her?

Yes. You shouldn't worry about her, Honey.

My husband is so cool.

Do you want to go somewhere with your cool husband?

[Press conference for the launch event: Gi Do Shik Scholarship Foundation]

Vice Chairman.

You must be busy. Thank you so much for accepting my invitation.

I thought it was a quiet event.

But it's quite noisy.

Wouldn't it be meaningful to let the world

know whose side you're on using this chance?

Whose side am I supposed to be on?

They're coming just in time.

They definitely need you on their side, Vice Chairman Kang.

Why did you bring me to an event like this?

Do you feel uncomfortable with anyone here?

No, it's not that.

I'm kind of shy. That's why...

Let's say hello, then.

They're very generous people who support me.

Welcome, Candidate Song Je Hyeok.

Congratulations on the new foundation.

Hello, Assemblyman.

Aigoo, Chairwoman Joo Yoo Jung.

Thank you for coming.

You must have a nice married life.

Your face completely lit up!

Hello, sir.

You should've come to the hotel. Why a restaurant?

I wanted to have brunch with you.

Shouldn't friends get brunch together?

I heard things didn't go well at Ace Bar.

Did Song Je Hyeok tell you that he gave me a good punch?

I didn't think he'd fool me, too.

I'm still the mother of his child.

Can't we set the secret club aside and take care of Song Je Hyeok first?

I'm desperate to take Na Na back.

I wish I could kill Song Je Hyeok right now, too.

But there's no evidence of the sexual assault.

Even the statute of limitation expired.

I think the secret club is the only way to get him.

I need to go somewhere after the meal.

Do you want to come with me?

[Press conference for Gi Do Shik Scholarship Foundation launch event]

Since all the important people are here,

I'll start the press conference now.

You have to put this all over the front page, okay?

Assemblyman, please tell us why you started a foundation under your son's name.

Well, 10 years ago,

my son was tragically killed.

He was very smart and had a strong sense of justice.

I don't know why such a horrible thing happened to someone like him...

They say when your child dies, you bury them in your heart.

But I wanted the world to see his name instead.

That's why I started a scholarship foundation under his name.

Did you choose to have the press conference at this orphanage

to show support to Candidate Song Je Hyeok, who's running for mayor of Tongju?

I guess that's part of the reason.

Since Mr. Song is new to politics,

he needs a lot of help from me, too-

May I...

say something?

Why don't you talk later instead-

A word, please, Mr. Song!

- Please, Mr. Song! - Please!

The reason I allowed him to use the orphanage for the press conference is

for the children and nothing else.

The more attention we get from the public figures of Tongju,

the more donation we'd get

and it'd allow our children to grow more prosperous.

So, what I need right now is for the people of Tongju

to support my dream.

Everyone, please support my dream,

not Song Je Hyeok.

Thank you.

Let me ask Ms. Joo, Mr. Song's wife, this time.

Ms. Do Jae Yi announced her candidacy at this very place recently.

You said you supported her then. But...

you support someone else now.

In all honesty, would you still support Mr. Song

even if he wasn't your husband?

Answer him.

I'm curious what you think, too.

I sincerely cheer for Ms. Do as her longtime friend.

But...

as you just heard,

Mr. Song gets happiness from making other people happy

rather than satisfying his desires.

For that reason, I still would've supported Mr. Song

for the people of Tongju, even if he wasn't my husband.

I'm so lucky to have a wife like her.

Why did you bring me here?

Because this is the Angels' Club.

This is the Angels' Club?

- You said you failed. - Just wait and see.

I'll prove that this is the Angels' Club.

It's Do Jae Yi!

Ms. Do, what brings you here...

Assemblyman Gi generously came to my candidacy announcement event.

So I shouldn't miss out on your event, Assemblyman Gi.

Ms. Do is certainly a very polite person.

Hello, Mr. Song.

I'm not bothering you by coming here, right?

Not at all. Welcome, Ms. Do.

Don't worry about me, and carry on.

I'll look around this orphanage in the meantime.

I'd like to know why both Assemblyman Gi and Mr. Song

are so attached to this place.

Will you just let her?

Shouldn't we follow her, at least?

Are you giving me an order right now?

I can't follow her.

Ms. Do, please let us take your picture!

Ms. Do, look over here!

Look over here!

Hurry up!

Give me everything you got.

I don't want to. Why should I give you what I got?

You got a lot because you're still young.

They won't give it to me because I'm grown up now.

Hey, Ye Ji gets way more than her.

The Angels give her more because she's sick.

You must be happy that your leg hurts.

The Angels will give me more of it if I'm sick, too.

- Give me some! - Ye Ji!

I'm sorry, guys. I must've scared you.

What do you want her to give you?

And who are the Angels?

Well...

Wait...

- Hold on! - Run!

Ye Ji!

Hold on.

Hold on.

It's okay.

I'm a friend of the chairman here. You can tell me.

Who are the Angels

and what did they give you so much of?

The thing is...

- Yeah. - Jae Yi.

Why did you call me?

What if someone saw us?

I thought I should at least say hello.

Not because you were worried?

You're afraid that I'll tell everyone that my father is

Chairman Kang Il Goo of Gangbo Group?

All right, then. Saying hello was enough.

How could you be on Song Je Hyeok's side?

You don't even know what kind of man he is.

You're working hard.

You even have to say hello to your ex's father to make your husband the mayor.

You must be tired, too.

You can't even see your own daughter proudly.

Do you...

even know anything and acting out?

No, I don't know anything.

All I know is that the past is just the past.

So, I won't be destroying my precious family

because of that worthless past. No matter what!

Looks like you might know something since you're reacting so strongly.

But did you know this?

That your husband didn't approach you innocently.

- What? - Gi Do Shik was like that, too.

He wanted what you had more than you.

Let me give you a piece of advice.

You should just protect what you have and abandon the man.

He's just a guy.

What I want to protect is not just some guy.

It's my perfect family with my husband and my child.

I will protect them no matter what it takes.

My husband and my child, too.

Jae Yi? I'll leave now.

I have a plan.

Aigoo! It's been a while, Ms. Go Yoo Na.

I don't think we're that happy to see each other.

Looks like you misunderstood something.

I don't have Song Je Hyeok's back.

He's someone I use like a dog.

But is it because I didn't put a leash on him?

Looks like he's acting out a bit.

Now that we're on the topic,

could you find me a leash to put on him for me?

[Prosecutors' Office]

What's up? Can't believe you called me.

I thought you removed my name from the family registry.

I have a favor to ask.

A favor? Do we ask each other a favor now?

We're brothers who share blood, but

we're worse than strangers.

Okay, let's just hear what you want to ask me.

February 18th, 2013. At Grand Gangbo Hotel,

Gi Do Shik, Assemblyman Gi Yoon Chul's son, got murdered.

I want to look into that case, but a lot of the articles were removed.

There's no way to look into it at all.

So you want me to find the case records for you?

Why would you want that?

Just get them for me, Hyung.

You don't even care what I do.

Arrogant bastard.

If I do,

what would you do for me?

I'll give up on the inheritance.

I know that's what you want to hear.

[Atom Stationery]

You mean that Ye Ji.

I know her well!

She's the only one with a weak leg at Chunsarang Orphanage.

If she comes here to buy something,

could you give this to her and say it's a free gift?

Oh, Ye Ji is a child I support.

I'd feel bad for other kids to only give it to her.

I know. It'd be difficult to care for all of them.

I'll only give it to her secretly.

Pretend like it's a free gift.

Thank you.

You ate blood sausage soup every day as a child.

Aren't you sick of it?

No, I think it's so delicious!

That's why they say blood is thicker than water.

Your dad loves blood sausage soup, too.

- You scared me. - Does that man still come here?

Does he still come here?

I told you not to let him!

Why don't you listen to me, Grandma?

What do you mean, "that man"?

You can't be like that. He's still your dad.

Grandma, I saw him today.

But do you know where I saw him?

At my rival candidate's event.

He was standing by the one I want to kill, not me.

What's this?

Your campaign fund.

Your dad, Kang Il Goo, sent it.

He is funding my campaign?

I don't know the situation,

but if your dad was standing by someone you want to kill,

he must've had a reason.

- Hello! - Hello, Ma'am.

Say goodbye, Na Na.

Goodbye.

See you tomorrow, Na Na!

Take care, Ma'am. Thank you!

Did you have fun at the kindergarten today, too?

- Yes. - Huh?

You don't look so happy, though.

Did something happen at the kindergarten?

It's not that. I'm jealous of Hyun Ji.

Why are you jealous of her?

Her mom plays with her at the playground every day.

They ride swings

and they play tag, too.

I see.

Na Na!

Where are you, Na Na?

Mom, catch me!

I'm coming for you! I'm coming for you!

Wow, Na Na, that's so fast!

- Hurry up, Mom! - Yeah.

- Hurry up! - Yes, Na Na! Coming!

- You want me to push you? - Faster, Mom!

- Faster? - Higher!

Higher?

[Ace]

Geez, something I ate earlier doesn't agree with me.

I don't feel so well.

Is there a soda? A soda?

A soda. Is there a soda?

You shouldn't be looking for a soda.

You should stop eating sweet potatoes.

Sweet potatoes?

I didn't eat sweet potatoes.

You feel stuffy because you feel guilty about something toward me!

Tell me. You're making Leo work here, aren't you?

Geez! Yes, yes!

Leo is back to his job.

But didn't you start taking drugs again yourself?

Well, the couple each has a secret. Just call it even.

I won't take drugs ever again.

So don't let Leo work again.

If you contact him again and make him work here,

I won't forgive you.

Do you think I'm still a pimp who manages my hosts?

What's so great about being the VP of a hotel?

Why do I have to bow down to you?

I'm not talking to you as the VP of that piddly Mariela Hotel.

I'm talking to you as the daughter of Gil Man Ok, the owner of Daesungak.

What brings you here?

If you just came for a drink-

I don't need a drink.

I'm just here to see you, Noonim.

Noonim?

You must have a favor to ask me

since you're playing your old trick.

What is it?

I'm actually here because of Assemblyman Gi.

Assemblyman Gi? Why?

I thought you and he were in the same boat.

Of course, we already are.

But he still thinks he's the captain.

If he decided to support me, he should make me the captain instead.

So you want me to support you?

But no matter who the captain is,

you both share the same destination.

Becoming the mayor of Tongju.

If so, you should be sinking the enemy.

You can't fight each other in the same boat.

By the enemy,

do you mean Do Jae Yi?

A way to sink Do Jae Yi.

Do you know how to?

If you become the mayor of Tongju,

build Hae Mi a hotel in Tongju.

So it'd shine the most in the very center!

Love for your daughter is as strong as ever.

I promise you.

Give me...

the card to beat Do Jae Yi.

I'm not sure.

I still don't have the assurance that you'll become the Tongju mayor yet.

It could be Jae Yi.

You might be on Do Jae Yi's side instead?

Na Na!

Na Na!

Why did you come?

I told you not to come anymore.

I told her to come.

Why did you do that?

I told you that I let her go.

I didn't think you'd do well without her.

You're suffering so much for playing with Na Na for one day.

Do you know what she did?

She handed Na Na over to some woman behind my back.

How could I let her take care of Na Na?

What if something bad happens?

Some woman?

Yes, some woman.

My goodness.

If she really handed Na Na over to a stranger,

that'd be a serious problem.

But do you know what'd be worse than that?

Me losing to Do Jae Yi because of you.

What do you mean, lose to Jae Yi because of me?

Do you know why Youngwoon Foundation is struggling?

It's because she excluded you from the arts and culture village project.

But you have no rage in your eyes when you look at her.

Are you a fool?

What am I supposed to do, then?

Am I supposed to fight with Jae Yi or something?

If you can't,

you should implore her instead.

- Implore? - What?

You don't want to?

Are you afraid it'd damage your precious ego?

By chance, your ego can't be more important than our family, right?

Remember.

The best way to protect our family

is for me to become the mayor.

But if that doesn't happen,

you never know.

That woman might actually take Na Na away.

I'm sorry. It's my fault that you two...

I'll never, ever respond to her again! Never.

You don't have to worry about her anymore.

Instead,

please keep an eye on my wife.

Watch what she does and what she's thinking.

And even who she meets with. Watch closely.

Remember.

The best way to protect our family

is for me to become the mayor.

But if that doesn't happen,

you never know.

That woman might actually take Na Na away.

[Na Na's Nanny]

The call is not going through. You'll be connected to the voicemail...

[Na Na's Nanny]

Things are over between us now.

You must've been surprised.

Not at all. I told you to call me if anything happens.

What is it? Is something going on?

Jae Yi, are you upset with me by chance?

Or is there another reason

why you chose Yoo Na over me?

Yoo Jung, I never abandoned you.

The situation just turned out that way.

What about the situation?

Do you really want to know?

Everything I know about?

No, don't tell me.

Okay, then.

I won't tell you.

Instead, promise me just one thing.

That you won't do anything that would destroy our family,

Je Hyeok, me, and Na Na.

I...

I can't promise that.

Why not?

Leave.

If I spend more time with you,

I don't know what I'd say.

Just leave.

What are you doing right now?

Get up! Get up!

I'm in so much pain.

I can't move.

Why?

I ran in the playground with Na Na earlier today.

Why did you run?

Your leg hurts.

Get up right now. Get up.

Because that's how precious...

Na Na and my family are.

Jae Yi.

I beg you.

Please be on my side. Please!

Yoo Jung, I...

was never not on your side.

Could you find me a leash to put on him for me?

Song Je Hyeok's bloody mask you gave Do Jae Yi.

Give that to me.

What if I did?

Since you got out on parole,

you're wanted for running away overseas, as I understand.

I'll give you freedom.

So you can take your daughter back freely.

Assemblyman Gi?

I'll get you the leash for Song Je Hyeok.

I'll trust you and leave, then.

I'm sure we'll see each other with a smile someday.

[Attorney Do Jae Yi's Office]

I'm sorry, Yoo Jung.

But...

I can't forgive your husband.

Okay...

[Chicken stock for Jae Yi]

Hey.

I got Gi Do Shik's case file for you.

Keep your promise about giving up on the inheritance.

Okay.

What are you up to? Should we meet up later?

Who is it? Kang Hoo?

They say you can't hide financial struggle, cough, and love.

It's obvious.

By the way, why did you want to see me here?

You said friends are supposed to have brunch together.

Aren't we friends?

Yes, let's eat.

The mask I gave you.

Where are you keeping it?

Why do you want to know that?

I gave you that mask.

I have the right to know that much.

It's in the whiskey storage at Kang Hoo's restaurant.

Because my house or the office would be dangerous.

Yes.

That sounds pretty safe.

Yoo Na.

I think I could find out

the truth about the orphanage soon.

If so, Song Je Hyeok would be over, too.

Could you wait a little longer?

Okay, I'll wait.

Because you're the only friend I trust.

Shouldn't you be open for lunch?

It's okay.

It'd be warmer if you hugged me.

I missed you.

Hold on.

I'll go to the restaurant in the evening.

I could see you, right?

I agreed to meet you, too. Don't say no.

What? Who is it?

It's nothing.

You made it.

I came hungry. All I get is coffee?

We ran out of ingredients. What should we do?

It's okay.

Can you pick up medicine for me instead?

I've had a headache all day.

The pharmacies must be closed because it's late.

Okay, just wait a moment.

[Do Jae Yi]

Why do you need the mask?

You definitely gave the brooch to Ye Ji, right?

Yes, she came to buy crayons today.

She happily took it when I gave it to her.

Thank you, Ma'am.

Move anywhere.

I'll run to you immediately.

[Go Yoo Na] I'll tell you why I need the mask.

Come to my hotel room.

[Grand Gangbo]

Were you drinking?

I feel like I'm dying.

Please take me to the hotel room.

Hold on a moment.

I'll clean up a bit.

[Power Off]

Hold on, Kang Hoo.

I want to sit here for a second.

[Grand Gangbo]

Why don't you go upstairs quickly and rest there?

I can go up now.

Dad.

Dad...

[Queen of Masks]

♫ The dark desires hiding behind the masks ♫

♫ They're liars ♫

♫ The truth is hiding behind the curtain ♫

♫ My flashy looks are just to distract you ♫

Do Jae Yi.

Go Yoo Na. Joo Yoo Jung. And...

you're the last one, Hae Mi.

There's a phrase they use in gambling.

The one who wonders who the pushover in the game is

Song Je Hyeok, that bastard is playing with all four of us.

That's the only way we can survive now.

To find his weakness.
