Original subtitles

This is worthy of an emergency x-ray, right?

What happened?

For some reason, no one wants to operate on him.

What's wrong, sir?

Oh my, Kim Young-mi!

HANSHIN MEDICAL CENTER

You don't remember anything?

Then tell me your name.

PSYCHIATRIST CHOI YEONG-HWAN

It's okay. Don't push yourself.

You'll get better soon.

Please take her outside.

What's going on?

It's amnesia and loss of speech due to brain damage.

Then when will she regain her memory and talk again?

It's difficult to say,

but it probably won't be anytime soon.

It's a good thing, right?

It is, but it's more of a hassle than a coma.

Keep a close eye on her on the 12th floor

until the shareholders' meeting.

She cannot be in contact with her family or the union.

Can you do that?

Yes, sir.

I will.

She lost her memory and has aphasia?

Oh my.

Miss, hang in there.

You'll get better soon.

Thank you, Ms. Han.

Pardon? Why are you thanking me?

Because you're being nice to the patient.

- I'll get going then. - Okay.

Are you out of your mind?

How could you return here?

What were you thinking--

You call that a farewell letter?

It was an SOS.

Still, you shouldn't have come.

Just admit you're happy.

- How can you laugh now? - Don't worry.

I have a weapon to fight Do-jun now.

Something I can save you with.

A weapon?

What will you do?

We have nowhere left to hide.

We can't avoid this war either.

And...

I won't avoid it.

Thank you, sir

for letting me onto your boat.

I hope we don't sink together.

Of course not.

I'll devote myself to you.

The shares and reorganization

are all taken care of.

We should move onto the next step.

Of course, we should.

It's time to announce Ms. Young Ae's death.

And...

clean the rest of the house.

Clean the house?

You mean Kim Tae-hyun?

What is it?

Did you call for me?

Dr. Kim, we don't have much time.

- Pardon? - They're going to announce

Yeo Jin's death.

You have to leave.

Madam Lee,

I'll take care of it.

I know.

You'll make me think you ran away

and kill yourself.

How did you...

I'm well-informed, too.

Dr. Kim, you don't need to stay with me,

so just leave this place.

I'll help.

What? You think I'll ask you to pay me back?

Madam Lee,

why are you helping me?

Because I like you.

You're my type.

I'm sorry, Madam Lee.

But I can't...

leave this place.

Fine. Tell me if you change your mind.

But I can't help when it's too late.

Father's last message for me is in there.

If I want to reclaim my position, I must go in.

It's the chairman.

Hello, sir.

I'm glad you're here.

Dr. Kim, come with us.

Okay, let's begin.

Announce her death.

What are you doing?

September 9th

of 2015

at 12:20 p.m.

Han Yeo-jin...

passed away.

What's the cause of death?

I don't know.

Probably a heart attack...

due to losing too much blood.

Your sister's treatment is going well, right?

Is the funeral ready?

Yes, sir. It is.

I'll just make it simple,

so we won't get much attention from the media.

Okay. We should do that.

No, sir.

- What do you mean? - This announcement

isn't merely to announce Ms. Young Ae's death.

This announcement is also

telling the world

that Hanshin Group is now completely yours.

Thus,

the funeral must not be just a funeral,

but your coronation.

Coronation?

We shouldn't keep it small.

A coronation at a funeral?

You are so thoughtful.

Fine, you take care of everything.

Help him from behind.

It's an honor.

I will do as you order.

You need to get out of here.

What do you mean?

I just...

pronounced your death.

They'll announce your death soon,

and your funeral will begin today,

and you'll be buried in a day or two.

Then your identity will be revealed.

You need to get out of here.

A funeral?

Things may be easier than I expected.

Who was there?

- What? - Tell me what was discussed

when you pronounced my death.

HANSHIN GROUP'S LATE HAN YEO-JIN

Hanshin Group's Chairman...

Han Do-jun's sister

and the major shareholder of Hanshin Group, Han Yeo Jin,

has passed away this morning after a long battle

with an illness.

We at Hanshin will take some time

to mourn our loss

and extend our condolences.

The funeral will last five days...

and the chief mourner will be Chairman Han Do-jun.

I have a question.

What was the cause of death?

As you can see in the handout,

it was a heart attack.

There is a rumor that it was a suicide. Is that true?

Please do not speculate.

Is the list of funeral commissioners,

the order of precedence of the company?

As I've said earlier,

please do not speculate.

I will not take any more questions.

That is all.

MAY LATE HAN YEO-JIN REST IN PEACE

Just one moment!

I have another question!

Shouldn't you be the one doing the press conference?

What's this list of funeral commissioners?

They took all the spots up front and you--

That's enough.

It's as I expected.

Please make my funeral beautiful. From Han Yeo-jin.

What's wrong, sir?

Who would dare play such a prank on you?

Should I trace it?

You can't trace it.

It's the chairman's secure line.

What?

Nobody outside of the family knows the number.

Then, is it Madam Lee?

Tae-yong.

- What? - Can't you operate on...

Chief Lee?

If he doesn't get surgery now,

he'll die.

Why don't you do it?

You're a real doctor.

I'm just a shallow jerk.

We're frustrated too, but the administration won't permit--

If you operate only when they permit it,

is that being a real doctor?

Hey.

A doctor who deals with lives is responsible for them.

I make judgments based on what's best for the department.

Is that why you reported me?

Since I'm not in the department?

Report?

What do you mean?

Don't talk about being

a real doctor and stuff like that

in front of the juniors anymore.

Why does a funeral feel like a party?

It's too dangerous.

I need to get her out.

What about you then?

How will you get out?

Watch for a bit.

They're different from you.

They have their own ways of fighting.

Will she be okay?

Just wait and see.

Young Ae is not weak.

Chief Nurse...

I need your help one more time.

Pardon?

What now?

I need to save Chief Lee.

What?

Goodness.

FUNERAL OF HAN YEO-JIN

Please go to heaven.

I'll gladly go to hell.

What?

You won't accept my incense?

The people who will devote themselves to you

will be wearing a dark gray tie.

This is the CEO of Hanshin Chemistry, Han Tae-seob.

Congratulations, sir.

This is CEO Choi of Hanshin Precision.

Congratulations, sir.

Aren't you Yeo-jin's relative on her mother's side?

I beseech you

to forget the past, sir.

This is Cho Young-joon, President of Hanshin Cement.

My deepest condolences.

Mine as well.

Next is...

Father, you're here.

Chairman Han...

please forgive my foolish daughter.

It is all due to my shortcomings.

Please stop.

People are watching, Father.

Chae-yeong really should think about her father's position.

If the world finds out that I am alive,

it will be flipped upside down, right?

Who is this?

- What's wrong? - This isn't Young Ae.

Pardon? It isn't?

Then Young Ae really is...

We are... dead.

- Sir. - The burial is in two days.

If the chairman finds out...

Calm down, Sir. We can find her before then.

Find her? Find what?

We must find Young Ae's body and bring it back here.

Then...

who is this woman?

We start from there.

Check his blood pressure and replace his dressing.

Yes, ma'am.

Chief Nurse.

- What is it? - What...

were you thinking?

Pardon?

What do you mean?

Why did you identify a wrong corpse

as Young Ae?

Wrong corpse?

I'm sure I warned you.

I'll give you one last chance.

Chief Lee.

Chief Lee made me do it.

- Chief Lee? - Yes.

He brought an unidentified body from the morgue

and told me to switch it with Ms. Young Ae.

It's the truth. I only did as I was told.

What do you mean? I saw her die with my own eyes!

No, Ms. Young Ae did not die.

Chief Lee made it look like she died and took her somewhere.

If you're lying again, you know

what will happen.

Of course.

What is it?

Can you save him?

- Pardon? - He must wake up.

Even if it's brief.

If you tell a dying man to save another person,

would he want to do it?

Dr. Kim Tae-hyun,

think of your sister.

Let's do it then.

Why not?

This is the CEO of Hanshin Chemical.

You should call it a day.

You'll be greeting guests all day tomorrow as well.

Should I? Come to think of it, I am tired.

We'll guard the room.

I've booked a hotel nearby for you.

Suction.

Kelly.

One more.

One more.

One more.

One more.

Don't drink so much on a day like today.

Shouldn't I drink on a day like today...

to celebrate the coronation?

Did you like having your father-in-law pledge his loyalty?

Fine. You've won.

I admit it.

So, please release me now.

Stop the hostage situation.

Hostage situation?

Yes.

You've held my dad hostage to keep me here.

And now, you're holding Kim Tae-hyun hostage as well.

Let's get a divorce.

I wanted to get to Yeo-jin and make it big,

and help my family before leaving.

But she's dead now.

I have no reason to live like this.

Life is too short.

So, I just want to collect a bit of alimony and leave.

Alimony?

You've got to be kidding me.

You're the one who should pay me damages.

You...

can never escape from my grip.

Why do you want

to keep holding onto a wife

who won't even sleep with you?

I told you, I love you.

What? Love?

Come on now.

You don't love me.

It's an obsession.

Obsession? Sure. Maybe.

Since everyone I've loved...

abandoned me.

Even my mother left me when I was young...

and committed suicide in a rehabilitation center for alcoholics

in New York.

My father who married my step-mother...

abandoned me too.

Even my step-mother, whom I loved more than my own mother

abandoned me as soon as she had Yeo-jin.

Do you know what happened to all of them?

I buried them all...

with my hands.

And now, I'll bury Yeo-jin.

Nobody can abandon me anymore.

Not until I abandon them first.

Before I married you, I was in love.

His family was average. His father ran a small company.

And he was a good person.

And I

was pregnant with his child.

The madam of a large corporation?

I wasn't interested in the slightest.

But...

my father wanted to marry his daughter to his master's son.

So, do you know what your father, his master

pressured him to do to that man?

My father destroyed his family

and...

he committed suicide.

He left a note apologizing

for being unable to protect me.

And...

I aborted his child.

Do you get it?

You're not the victim.

You were always the assailant.

I will never...

give birth to your child.

You can kill me...

but you will never have me.

So, you're the one

who did a background search on Chae-yeong before I married her?

Yes, sir.

Then you...

must have known all about her past.

Then why didn't you tell me?

That's because...

the late chairman forbid me from telling you...

Of course.

Please forgive me, sir.

I had no choice.

Sure. I understand you had no choice.

Thank you for understanding, sir.

Come to think of it,

you know more than I realized.

Once a pyramid is completed,

everyone who knows the pyramid's maze

all get buried together.

A pyramid?

That's right. It's like a pyramid.

Yes, we must bury them all.

I guess

I haven't been treating you properly all these years.

Right?

No, sir.

I'm always moved by your grace.

Moved?

You didn't look down on me?

Fine.

You may go.

Bring my passport to Incheon Airport right now.

Otherwise, Do-jun will kill you, too.

From Han Yeo-jin.

I'm sure Young Ae is alive.

She's trying to leave the country.

We don't have time.

I'll call it in. Bring her passport to the airport.

Call your contacts with the police, airport line, legal, and everyone.

Bring everyone from hospital security to the airport.

We must stop her.

We must catch her, and quickly.

Yes, sir. What about the 12th-floor guards?

The 12th floor?

Give me a break. What's the point in guarding an empty room?

If we don't catch Young Ae, you and I are dead.

Get to the airport!

Yes, sir.

All 12th floor guards are to move out.

- Where are they all going? - I wonder if something is up.

I've never seen the restricted wing unguarded before.

Well, Ms. Young Ae isn't there now anyway.

Tie.

Cut.

- Can you finish up? - Yes, sir.

You shouldn't remove your bandages.

The breeze felt so nice.

You're in a good mood.

The surgery went well.

Surgery? What surgery?

Just another surgery.

Let me see your phone.

What are you doing?

TAE-HYUN

Madam Lee, please get me out of here.

I need to leave the hospital.

LEE CHAE-YEONG

Okay. I'll be there in 30 minutes.

What's this?

Tae-hyun.

I have a favor to ask.

What is this?

Escape from the hospital.

What? Escape? What about you?

All the hospital guards should be headed to the airport.

This is your chance.

Are you kidding me?

How can I leave you?

Tae-hyun.

I must finish this fight.

And you...

need to do something for me from the outside.

Don't lie.

I know you're trying to get me out.

You know I don't lie.

What I'm about to ask

is something only you can do.

Please help me.

What is it?

Will you...

marry me?

Listen carefully.

Marry me...

and become my heir

and legal guardian.

And protect me...

from Do-jun.

Okay. I will.

Don't answer it so easily.

You need to think carefully--

This is...

my reply after careful consideration.

Yes, we're here. Yes, sir.

- Hurry up. - Yes, sir.

Marry me...

and become my heir and legal guardian.

And protect me from Do-jun.

Doctor, you may not leave.

Come on. Get in.

See? I told you it was simple.

Please take me to Incheon Airport.

What? Now?

What do you mean?

You want to leave the country?

If you're busy,

I can take a taxi.

Ms. Kim Young-mi. Where are you going?

That's the restricted wing.

Leave her alone. She can't go in anyway.

True.

Now that Ms. Young Ae is gone, even the guards left.

I know I shouldn't say this,

but I feel more comfortable now that she's gone.

You're right.

I guess you thought of me since you were desperate.

What? It's too humiliating to admit it?

Madam Lee.

I'm grateful that you saved me, but--

It's okay.

I was happy that you called me for help.

Where are you going? The US?

To your sister?

Madam Lee, I'm very grateful that you saved me

and helped me like this,

and I'll repay you, but--

Sure. The US is good.

Wait for me there. I'll come soon.

I'm getting a divorce soon,

so Do-jun won't have a reason to harass you.

So wait a little bit.

You're not getting a divorce because of me--

Why else would I get a divorce?

Well,

I'm in love with someone.

Liar. I looked into it.

Pardon?

If everyone's at the airport, you come to my room.

"My room"?

You are the owner

and the key to that room.

How have you been?

I'm sorry that I haven't visited often as your big brother.

It was her destiny to die like this.

She'll die in a coma like this,

so she won't feel any pain.

If you can't walk to your throne,

you can't sit on the throne either.

The seat you will take...

is the king's throne.

Yeo-jin,

did you sleep well?

If you're watching this,

that means you came into this room voluntarily.

That also means you are...

worthy of owning this room

and...

worthy of owning Hanshin Group.

And...

if you're watching this,

it means

I'm gone.

Thank goodness.

Now...

you don't need to die just to spite me.

Do you feel wronged?

You wanted to die because you hated me,

so you must be happy.

So, please don't die.

I'm sorry, Yeo-jin,

this is the only way I can save you.

When you said...

you'd die to take away the person I love most,

it was excruciating.

But...

at least you knew I loved you more than anyone else,

so thank you.

I know that...

once I'm gone, Do-jun won't wake you up.

But I have to leave without doing something about it.

I'm sorry...

for being unable to protect you.

Yeo-jin,

Listen carefully...

and don't be shocked

or hurt anymore.

But you must know the truth.

To be honest, I knew all long...

that you were dating

Daejung Group's Choi Seong-hun.

Do-jun.

I'll see you after the honeymoon.

I was worried but you were smart.

I trusted you and your judgment,

so I decided to wait.

But not long before your accident...

I received a suspicious report.

I found out...

that Do-jun had been...

colluding secretly with Seong-hun.

That's why...

Seong-hun intentionally approached you.

In exchange for Do-jun giving him confidential data

regarding a new business

that Hanshin invested a large sum in,

Seong-hun was going to frame you for it instead

so that...

Do-jun can expel you from the board.

But Seong-hun was greedy

and tried to keep both you and the confidential information.

That's why Do-jun killed him.

That accident happened...

Kill them both.

...because Do-jun gave the order to kill both of you that night.

No. It couldn't be.

No!

Did you hear something?

What? No.

What's he doing here?

From now on...

you must become strong.

That is why I...

made this room for you.

And in this room,

I've prepared a gift that will be

of great strength to you.

I will now...

give it to you.

Look down to your right.

In that USB drive...

is every detail

about Hanshin Group's slush funds from all

of its subsidiaries and how the funds were used

for lobbying politicians.

I'm sure you understand

what that means.

Once they find out you have that information,

no subsidiary president, executive,

director, or politician involved...

will dare stand against you.

Only the person who holds that ledger...

can be the true owner of Hanshin Group.

Of course, once I'm gone,

Do-jun will do whatever it takes to find it.

But...

he can never have it.

Because...

he is not the heir of Hanshin.

Now...

I don't seem to have...

much time left.

Now I will leave you

my final words.

People suspected me until the end,

but I genuinely

loved your mom.

That's how I was able to protect Hanshin.

Yeo-jin,

I love you.

And...

please protect Hanshin.

We must stop her.

We must catch her, and quickly.

Yes, sir. What about the 12th-floor guards?

The 12th floor?

Give me a break. What's the point in guarding an empty room?

If we don't catch Young Ae, you and I are dead.

Get to the airport!

Yes, sir.

And you come to my room.

I came as you ordered.

What will you do now?

You've walked into your own prison.

Get down on your knees.
