Original subtitles

Honey. Remember what I told you whenever we watched the news?

I told you that a famous anchor in Korea is a friend of mine, didn't I?

I've heard a lot about you.

I'm Eun Joo's husband, Kevin Lee.

Where were you?

Hye Ran, you're here.

I came to give him the list of questions.

I thought it would be helpful if he took a look.

I see.

(Kang Tae Wook Law Office)

My goodness. What a surprise.

What's going on between these two?

Was there parking space?

Yes. There was one vacant spot.

We met by chance when I was getting off work.

Since I was on my way to meet you,

I invited him to join us for tea.

I also had something I wanted to consult him about.

Actually,

Hwan Il Steel Company has filed a lawsuit demanding a penalty.

Hwan Il Steel Company?

Why?

They're concerned that Kevin's cause of death was drunk driving...

and that he was involved in several scandals.

They're claiming he damaged their company's image.

They're demanding three times of the initial payment.

I don't know what to do. I have no knowledge on this.

So Tae Wook,

I was wondering if you could defend me on this case.

I'd love to help you, but it's not my area of expertise.

I could connect you with a friend experienced in that field.

To be honest, this has to do with Kevin's personal life.

So a stranger would be...

If it made you feel uncomfortable, I apologize.

I'm sorry, Hye Ran.

I guess I was desperate. It was unabashed of me.

For your sake, I shouldn't be asking for favors like this.

In good times, people were eager to offer help,

but since Kevin has gone,

everyone's in such a rush to turn their backs on me.

I try to accept the fact that that's how people are,

but it still hurts.

Tae Wook, please take on this case.

It would be better since you know more about the case than others.

Also, Eun Joo pregnant right now.

Do this for me.

Could you possibly help me?

This is where you can reach me.

When you come to my office,

bring the original copy of the contract.

Thank goodness.

Thank you, Tae Wook.

Thank you, Hye Ran.

Couldn't I just...

introduce her to a lawyer experienced in this field?

For now, I'd like to focus on your case.

It's Kevin Lee's scandal.

You know well...

that my name will eventually come up.

When it does, I don't want to hear about it from someone else.

Do this for me.

You'll do it, right?

You sure...

have a way of making it difficult for me to refuse.

It's cold outside.

I'm sorry. There was a long line in the restroom.

It would've been nice if we had dinner together,

but I have to go because of my news show.

Don't worry about it.

I'm grateful that you could make the time to meet me.

Could you tell me where the closest subway station is?

I'll give you a ride.

That's all right. I can just take the subway.

It's all right. Just go with him.

I'm sorry that I keep troubling you.

It's okay. Let's go.

- I'll see you at home later. - Okay.

Bye.

(Episode 7: Secret)

It's the headline for today's news.

I heard the next spokesperson for the Blue House...

is fixed to be Jung Hyun Sung, the anchor of CBC.

Did you know about it?

No, I've never heard of it.

Did you take care of the threatening text last time?

I haven't gotten anything since then.

Will it pass like this?

I told you that it wouldn't be a big deal.

I like the headline comment.

I thought you wanted to talk about factory waste water.

Well, Reporter Kwak asked me to buy some time.

It seems like he hasn't gotten the footage he needs yet.

Okay, get right into it as soon as it's ready.

- Okay. - All right.

This is Go Hye Ran.

Go on.

I heard the next spokesperson...

is fixed to be Jung Hyun Sung. Is that true?

It's an internal decision, so I can't answer to that.

Seeing how you're flustered,

I guess it's true.

I'm sorry. I'll hang up now.

I got the footage just now.

We might be able to cover this as the third report.

About the gambling in Macao.

You have the original clip, right?

The gambling in Macao?

It was around 2016.

The sons of the former high-official and conglomerate families...

went to gamble in Macao and got investigated.

The director of a broadcasting station got involved too.

Are you talking about Anchor Jung Hyun Sung?

Chief Jang told me to let it go at that time.

You have the file, right?

Why do you ask all of a sudden?

For what will you use it?

Don't worry.

I'll use it for good.

Text me when you find it.

Thank you for the ride.

I got home nicely and safely thanks to you.

No problem.

Well...

Would you have dinner at my house if you don't mind?

Hye Ran will finish work late because of her show.

No, thank you.

It won't take even 10 minutes to prepare it.

It'd be great if you took a look at the contract with Hwanil Steel...

as you have dinner.

By any chance,

do you feel uncomfortable around me?

No, that's not it.

That's good.

Then stop by for dinner.

Well...

Okay.

(Tae Wook)

I think it's from your husband.

I'm having dinner at Eun Joo's house.

It's 30 minutes before the shooting. Please be on standby.

- Ms. Go. - Hye Ran.

Okay.

Okay.

All right.

(Go Hye Ran's News Nine)

Hello, viewers.

Go Hye Ran's News Nine begins now.

Call me by today.

I'll report you for blackmailing me after today.

If you do,

the police or media will have the original photos.

You don't care about that?

If I were to go down because of those mere pictures,

I wouldn't have been able to come this far.

A blackmailer like you...

isn't much of a problem at all. Do you understand?

So...

think carefully, and decide.

(Go Hye Ran)

- I'm from the police. - Hello.

Can you tell us where Baek Sun Hee's ward is?

- Baek... - Baek Sun Hee.

Okay. Just a moment.

Go Hye Ran's News Nine...

has reported about the illegal factory waste water today.

The owner of the factory dumped the waste water...

secretly in the river on rainy days.

He must've thought...

that no one would find out about it.

But it smells once the rain stops.

The fish die and float above the river.

It's only a matter of time.

No truth can stay buried forever.

I'll end News Nine here.

Have a great night.

Good job.

- Good job. - Good job.

Hye Ran.

Someone has kept on calling you since five minutes ago,

but it's from a restricted number.

Do you want to take it?

- Thank you. - No problem.

Hello?

I'll see you at QS Park at 2pm tomorrow.

I want 100,000 dollars for the original file.

It's non-negotiable.

(Elevator 4)

(Elevator 4)

Baek Dong Hyun!

- Get him! Hey! - Gosh.

Get him!

- Hey, you. - Let go of me!

I caught him.

- Come here, you. - Seriously.

What did I do? Why would you arrest me?

- Get off. - You jerk. Hey, get him.

Seriously.

My gosh.

Wait.

Let's talk. Come on.

About what?

I don't know anything.

Why would you run away then?

Because you're chasing me.

Okay. Okay. I get it.

Let's go...

sit somewhere and talk, okay?

Did you have dinner?

What?

Let's go somewhere...

and have a warm meal...

- Seriously? - That jerk.

Where did he go?

- Did you miss him? - What was that about?

That doesn't work anymore.

Don't ignore me.

Do you know how many testifies I've got with that?

I don't think he'd show up at the hospital for a while.

- What should we do? - It's obvious.

We need to wait at his house. Gosh.

You need to work out. How can you miss him?

I was flying around when I was your age.

My goodness.

Gosh.

I'm having dinner at Seo Eun Joo's house.

(Hye Ran)

The number you have dialled is not available...

It's strange.

I thought it'd be here.

I'm sorry.

He used to keep all documents here.

- Where is it? - It's fine. Take your time.

We took that photo in Honolulu on his PGA tour.

I never expected this day would come...

when we took that picture.

I still can't believe it.

It feels like...

he's away for a game.

Even now, I feel like he'd enter the door...

calling...

my name.

That's what it feels like.

I found it.

I think this is the one.

Is this right?

Yes.

He received a lot of deposit.

Did he?

I didn't know how much he received.

All his money is in the corporation account.

I heard money in corporation accounts...

can't be transferred whenever you want.

Haven't you changed the name of the representative yet?

I didn't have a chance to do so since the funeral.

I don't know how to change it either.

Could you show me the corporation-related documents?

Give me a second.

Thank you.

Does it disturb you?

No. It's fine.

Actually,

this is Hye Ran's favourite song when she was in high school.

She hooked me up to the song.

I see.

Long time no see.

Indeed. I'm sorry I didn't have time to visit you often.

That's not what I meant.

I'm just glad to see you again.

Then enjoy your time here.

Have you met her?

Yes.

She seemed...

a lot more daring than on the screen.

She sure is pretty daring.

So what did Tae Wook say?

Actually, that's why I'm here.

I wanted to ask you how far I should go.

You must've been pretty late last night.

Yes. I couldn't just leave after the dinner.

I looked over at the contract with Hwanil Steel...

and documents on the corporation.

I see. Good job.

But you should give me a call if you're going to be late...

Wait.

Hello?

What am I doing?

What happened?

Did you get that person in the picture?

No.

I only confirmed it's the manager of the golfer, Kevin Lee.

He's Kevin Lee's manager?

It seems like the police are after him too.

I wonder if there's anything more I should be aware of.

I'm going to work, honey.

Please hold.

Okay, drive safely.

When will you go to Hwanil Steel with Eun Joo?

In the afternoon.

I'll be really late today.

But it's Saturday.

I have another business to take care of. Bye.

He must have something then.

Something like important evidence.

He may be using that to blackmail her.

Or maybe the police are after him for that evidence.

Please find out what he has first.

Okay,

understood.

All right.

Let's find out what you have in your hands first.

Detective Kang.

Someone came here before us.

They searched through everywhere.

Baek Dong Hyun must really have something.

But why did he run away when he saw us?

He borrowed money from a loan shark, right?

His sister is receiving dialysis.

He must need a huge amount of money.

Get last week's CCTV footages of the hospital.

Report to me right away if you find anyone we know in the footages.

Yes, sir.

How amusing.

(BK Bank)

I've found someone we know.

Who is it?

It's Go Hye Ran.

It's Anchor Go Hye Ran of News Nine.

She was here yesterday afternoon.

Find out where Go Hye Ran is right now.

It's only a rumour.

It's a speculative claim.

What if we heard something from the person directly involved?

She's a nice woman.

Both as an anchor and a woman.

- As a woman? - As a woman?

It's not what we said.

Kevin directly said that himself.

Just the fact that he said such a thing...

means they were very close with each other, right?

I was there too.

It's a bit clumsy testimony.

Can you take it to the lawsuit?

Well, I'm sorry to say this in front of you two,

but everyone knows about the scandal between Kevin Lee and Go Hye Ran.

It's not something you can simply deny.

Well...

I'll wait outside.

You'll know when you read them,

but these are past rulings by Supreme Court.

Let me read one of them to you.

"For any reason,"

"if an advertisement model did any harm to the company's image,"

"they have the liability of compensation for damage."

"For any reason", right?

Then file a suit for breach of contract.

We'll file a counter suit for defamation.

Excuse me, Attorney Kang.

I guess you're highly confident...

after winning the Kaham's case.

Don't you think it's better to take care of it quietly between us?

It won't do any good for Go Hye Ran if this gets big.

We'll win this one anyway.

I guess you're trying to calm down Kaham's case...

by making Kevin Lee's scandal go viral.

You think you can catch 2 birds with 1 stone...

since Go Hye Ran reported on Kaham's case too.

Am I right?

You don't need to interpret it that way.

Do file a suit.

That way, we can file a suit against you too.

Let's go.

Eun Joo.

Eun Joo, Are you okay?

Eun Joo.

I found out.

It's a new shopping complex named QS Park.

How did you find it out so quickly?

I got it through social media.

Someone took a picture of her there 10 minutes ago.

I followed her and searched about her with her name as a hash tag.

What?

You don't need to know more. Let's get going first.

- What? - Just wait.

[VIU Ver] jTBC E07 Misty "Secret" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

I think she's waiting for someone.

I guess so.

I wonder whom she's waiting for in this crowded place.

Baek Dong Hyun?

It'll be really amusing if that's true.

- Right? - That's going to be critical.

Don't you think so?

Myung Woo.

She's just leaving.

I'll bring the car.

Get the CCTV footage on where she was sitting first.

Why would you want that?

Nothing happened. We saw it ourselves.

No.

There's got to be something we missed.

Inmate 17864, Ha Myung Woo.

Yes, he's been released.

He wouldn't want to appear like this to someone he likes.

He may be young, but he's still a man.

He wouldn't want someone he likes to see him like that.

Come back later when you grow up. Okay?

I'm sorry, but you can't meet him.

The inmate refused.

Did he say no again?

No matter how often you come, he wouldn't meet you.

So you should stop coming.

Then...

would you at least give this to him?

Myung Woo.

I'm getting married.

But...

I will never forget you.

(Wedding Invitation)

(Groom Kang Tae Wook, Bride Go Hye Ran)

(Examination Room 2, OBGYN Kim Yoon Hee)

It's growing according to the weeks.

Its heartbeat sounds healthy too.

I see.

I heard you had a stomachache.

It was nothing. It was only temporary.

It'll be all right as long as you keep doing what you've been doing.

The baby's bones are growing, so you should take enough calcium.

Are you here with your guardian?

Yes.

(Examination Room 2, OBGYN Kim Yoon Hee)

What did the doctor say?

Is the baby all right?

What did she say?

Yes.

The heartbeat sounds healthy too.

It's all right.

I'm glad to hear that.

I went to the US with nothing.

I didn't know anyone there.

I didn't have any money, but it was okay.

I wasn't alone,

and I had my husband next to me.

But now,

I don't know what to do.

I don't know how I should carry on.

Do you love Hye Ran?

Of course you do. She's worth it.

She's pretty, smart,

and is decisive about herself.

She's been like that since she was in high school.

She was so popular among male students too.

So no one knew...

just how much she struggled to live.

Is that right?

Didn't she tell you anything about her past?

Not much.

I see.

That's much like her.

A gymnasium collapsed during the construction yesterday.

Workers were buried.

And last year, in Busan,

an apartment collapsed just before its completion.

That construction company...

is the same one for this gym.

Is their job...

breaking down buildings instead of building them?

The thing is, they worked with...

the same supplier from that time too.

It's obvious. They got the deal through bribery...

and pocketed materials to fill the lack of funds.

Should we just reveal this?

What are the names of those companies?

Kanghae Construction, Ilgeon Engineering,

and Hwanil Steel.

Kanghae Construction...

is a subsidiary of Hwanil Steel, right?

That's right.

Let's make this...

as this week's special report.

What's gotten into you?

You want to take Ji Won's article?

The fraudulent construction and the corruption.

They're chronic social issues.

They're items we've been using for decades.

They're neither new nor interesting.

You're right. Chief Jang is right.

It's not new.

Of course, they're not new.

But news shows aren't for introducing new products.

They aren't for leading trends either.

If they're chronic social issues that haven't been fixed for decades,

we need to go over it for certain.

News shows aren't for fun, you know.

Discussing the cause and setting up measures won't make any difference.

You know they're all just a show.

You heard him, right?

What should you do to make it more than just a show?

You need to cover the issue in a different point of view.

Try digging in what you want to show with this issue.

- Me? - Do it well.

What does this mean?

I only told a reporter to cover the issue. That's all.

It means that you should do your job.

Why are you giving me this huge chance all of a sudden?

You said you wanted to take my place.

Prove it with your ability.

You know...

your ability improves not by sitting on your desk but by being on site.

It's what you say to your beloved junior.

I know you don't adore me.

You hated me.

I did. You were smart and had the spirit,

but you fell for something weird. Of course, I didn't like it.

Do a good job on this special report.

Make it just and fair.

Put your pride as a report on the line.

What's gotten into you?

It's making me uncomfortable.

Like you said,

I won't be in this position forever.

I'll be so furious...

if you succeed my place and do a horrible job.

Hye Ran.

Okay.

Good luck.

It's what you asked for the other day.

Thank you.

I need to know what you'll use this for first.

I told you that I'll use this for a good purpose.

Just and fair.

You're saying this with your pride on the line, right?

I can't even drink cold water in front of you.

Just and fair. Of course.

Don't worry about useless things, and take care of your own business.

Right.

About the factory waste water article yesterday.

It was nicely done.

Thank you.

Yes!

He announced that he'd submit his resignation letter on Monday.

It's been confirmed verbally today.

They seem to have a gathering at a Japanese restaurant in Gangnam.

It's unfortunate,

but it'll be wise to seek for a next chance.

No.

Seeking for a next chance is not in my dictionary.

Thank you.

- You. - Are you here to meet Mr. Choi?

This is a men's restroom.

You've been nominated as the spokesperson of the Blue House?

What do you want?

Does Choi Hyung Sik know...

that from 2013 to 2016,

you hung out with sons of conglomerate families...

and were suspected for gambling and prostitution abroad?

Hey.

The case was closed a long time ago. Why are you bringing that up now?

On September, 2016, while the prosecution...

investigated on the Macao gambling case,

they got intelligence that the current anchor was involved in it.

The intelligence is never trustworthy.

I have...

the voice record and the CCTV footage in this USB.

Do you want to be humiliated and step down from your anchor position?

Or do you want to give up on...

being the spokesperson with dignity...

and retire with honour?

If I give up on it,

will it be yours?

Take care of your own business.

I heard prosecutors are having their eyes on your case.

My case is still going on.

The investigation result isn't out yet.

Go Hye Ran.

Gambling and prostitution.

It's all good.

But you should at least go with your preference in politics.

You switched colours as soon as the change of power.

That's not right.

Do you really agree with the current government's governing style?

What do you take me for?

It's obvious.

You don't even know what party you support.

Now, since you've been offered to be a spokesperson,

you're ignoring the party which you've supported all along.

I see you as a cunning opportunist who's trying to side with new power.

What about you?

Are you that perfect?

I'm perfect at least when I host my news show.

What?

On the day of the announcement of the new spokesperson,

News Nine will report about the gambling case.

It'll be the headline.

You better brace yourself.

Darn it.

(Choi Hyung Sik)

Ki Joon.

What?

- Ki Joon. - What?

The manager's at the police station?

Yes.

But there's a problem.

Why did you run away?

I thought Go Hye Ran reported me.

I was threatening her.

Why were you threatening her?

Do you have something?

Baek Dong Hyun!

I have nothing.

I just needed money.

Everyone says she's the culprit,

so I thought I could get money if I threatened her.

I just needed money.

Again.

I just needed money.

Again.

I just needed money.

Again.

Trust me.

I really just needed money.

So I threatened her when she's innocent.

I'm sorry.

I'll get punished for what I did.

Baek Dong Hyun.

Are you being threatened?

You don't need to worry.

I've taken action...

so he'll never say anything else.

Am I right?

You're being threatened, aren't you?

Who is it?

Is it Go Hye Ran?

I'm sorry.

I just needed money.

Continuous death of delivery men...

and bus drivers' accidents due to dozing off at the wheel.

People are worried about harmful consequences due to long work hours.

- According to the statistics... - You're still here.

Over 300 people die from overwork.

Reporter Park still has an unclear pronunciation.

Just a moment ago,

I got a call from Jung Hyun Sung.

He yelled at me to discipline my juniors.

How dare he do that?

Do you still have a lingering affection?

It'll be a lie if I said no.

If I can't take that position,

at least someone who deserves it should.

Jung Hyun Sung doesn't deserve it.

What about your promise?

You said you'll give up...

on the spokesperson position if I keep News Nine for you.

Then you brought Han Ji Won as a spare right away.

That means you could change the title at any time, right?

So you mean you'll go if you have a chance?

If I don't, do I have hope here?

My seniors became a chief a year after they were on News Nine.

But it's my seventh year now.

I'm still only a department head. Why is that?

Because I'm a woman.

That sounds like you're telling me to back off.

You know that's not what I mean.

Broadcasting stations have a lower sexist rate than other places,

but you have to admit...

that there are more male executives as you go up.

New people are lording me over.

People above are blocking my career because I'm a woman.

Then I should find my own exit.

Have it your way then.

But do you think it'd be any better?

When you join the politics,

how far do you think you can go up?

I don't know.

I've never been there.

So I think I should give it a try.

People who wander while looking at their smartphones...

Tell Reporter Park to practice more with a pen in his mouth.

His pronunciation is so bad.

Bye.

Bye.

Reporter Baek has researched on...

I'm worried that road might hurt you.

When did you come home?

Just now.

Did you have dinner?

I had it with Seo Eun Joo.

You went to her house again?

She said she didn't feel good.

I took her to the hospital and dropped her at her house.

Hospital...

Did you go to the OBGYN?

Luckily, the mother and the baby are safe.

I think she was stressed...

from the funeral and the matter with Hwanil Steel.

I have a meeting with Kevin Lee's agency tomorrow.

They want to hold a meeting to establish measures.

Okay.

Are you okay?

What am I thinking?

This music...

What's going on?

Well, I heard you liked this song.

I heard it from Eun Joo.

Hye Ran.

Eun Joo must've been mistaken.

I don't like this song.

Don't turn it on at home.

What should I do?

Should I go as planned?

Turn the case over to the prosecution.

(Misty)

You're husband is great man.

I'm clearly involved in a controversial case,

but I've still been nominated for spokesperson. Why is that?

Tae Wook. Things will turn out as you expected.

You all think that Go Hye Ran had an affair with my husband,

but does anyone actually have evidence that it's true?

Have you ever thought of how painful it is for the people involved?

Has it ever crossed your minds?

Just walk away quietly.

If it's the spokesperson position that you truly want,

I'm sure you'll regret it.

I wonder which will cause more damage...

between murder and your past.

I choose to trust Hye Ran.

There's something that Hye Ran would never reveal about her past.

This could be my last day reporting news.

What would you like me to do?

I have the dash cam memory chip, Hye Ran.

There's only one option for me to choose right now.

I must report news that relates me.
