Are you okay?
Your complicated feelings for Chairman Kang.
I get it.
Let's quickly wrap this up.
Then you'll find a way, whatever it may be.
I have a plan with which we can take them down at once.
Deciding to pardon just one person.
I used the suspects' dilemma.
You make the suspects...
doubt each other.
Kang Yoon Kyum, Han Pan Ro, Han So Ra, Kim Jung Chul.
We know the dynamics between them all too well.
Let's make them tear each other apart.
Greed is a trap.
They'll fall for it.
And you.
You lost a lot of weight.
Did you dream of a future...
once this is all over?
I never thought about that.
It will be over soon.
You should start thinking about it.
A future?
What could there be?
What about you?
I want to...
cook you a nice meal at home.
Ordinary everyday life...
is what means most to us.
Chairman Kang will attend the trial?
Are you sure?
A company chairman has never attended an ordinary person's trial.
LY Group has been turned upside-down.
Kang Yoon Kyum told the prosecution of his willingness to attend.
If that's the case, he wants to be photographed.
What could it be?
Does he want to use the media to manipulate the trial?
Or will he flaunt his presence...
to put pressure on the prosecution?
What could he be thinking?
Tell him to attend.
Whatever he does,
he can't beat someone who's fighting to the death.
(Episode 15)
(Courthouse)
Why are you here in person?
Is Lee La El the head of Future Strategy and Planning?
- Any comments? - What can you tell us?
- Anything, sir? - Comments?
It's Lee La El!
- It's Lee La El. - Any comments?
- Sir? - Can you tell us anything?
- Chairman! - What are you planning?
Is it true that you were the chairman's lover?
- What do you say? - Ms. Lee?
Any comments?
- Were you in love? - Did you date him?
Is it true you were lovers?
Please, answer the question. Ms. Lee.
Can we hear your side of the story?
Do you have anything to say about it?
Is everything true about the rumor?
Can you confirm if the story is true?
Is it all true?
Ms. Lee. LY Group's chairman will be present in court.
Will that change any of the charges?
Yes.
I will disclose an additional charge that will be added.
Kang Yoon Kyum,
Han Pan Ro, Han So Ra, and Kim Jung Chul.
I'm going to hold them responsible for Article 120 of the Penal Code,
the murder charge.
- What? Murder? - Murder?
Hey, disclosing an accusation without proof violates...
the presumption of innocence.
They tortured my father whose name was Lee Tae Jun, the CEO of Gediks.
And they stole the company from him.
Kim Jung Chul was the principal culprit of the act.
The act was instigated by Han Pan Ro, Han So Ra,
and Kang Yoon Kyum.
The murder was planned.
Chairman Kang, is her accusation true?
Chairman Kang, did you know that you may be facing a criminal trial?
Chairman Kang, what's your statement?
- Ms. Lee! - Ma'am!
- One more comment! - Hold on! A comment, please!
- Ms. Lee! - Ms. Lee!
- Hold on. Ms. Lee. - A comment!
- One more comment! - Please give us your statement!
- Did you know about this? - Ms. Lee!
- Sir, can you clarify that? - Chairman Kang!
- Sir! - Chairman Kang!
Were you aware of this?
- Did you know about this? - Sir!
- Sir! - Chairman Kang!
It's a severe case of complex comminuted fractures.
So his nerves and muscles were damaged.
We did the surgery again, but peroneal nerves were paralyzed.
So it's highly likely that the damage may be permanent.
Permanent?
Gosh, my leg! Pan Ro!
What am I going to do with my leg now, Pan Ro?
I won't be able to walk straight anymore!
Why must I face this kind of injury?
Let's find a way. Calm down.
How could I calm down?
My perfectly fine leg was shattered!
I can't live with this kind of injustice!
Can you also break Lee La El's legs? Please, Pan Ro!
Sir, there's a problem.
Lee La El mentioned your names on a murder charge at court.
Your name, your daughter's name,
and Vice Chairman Kim's as well.
Gosh. That lunatic!
Did you hear that?
On top of that, Chairman Kang appeared at the courthouse.
Why did that jerk go there?
I've been trying to handle this under the table. Why?
Call my legal team now!
Where are you going, Pan Ro?
What about me? And my leg?
You're going to destroy Lee La El, right?
Unbelievable. Shut your mouth. Just get the treatment!
That fool, Kang Yoon Kyum.
Pan Ro!
Lee La El, the representative of LY's victims and the petitioner,
raised these charges against the defendant, Kang Yoon Kyum.
The civil and criminal lawsuits will proceed simultaneously.
Based on the ruling of the criminal trial,
the range of compensation will be set.
To set the amount for compensation,
we must wait for the ruling of the criminal trial.
(Bench)
Ms. Lee. Do you consent?
I would like to submit additional evidence to prove their crime.
Even so, we must wait for the ruling of the criminal trial.
His attendance in court is working in his favor.
I think the judge is trying to give him time.
Regardless of the ruling from the criminal trial,
I will comply with Ms. Lee's demand and settle.
- What? - He'll settle?
Sir, if you do that, it won't help our case.
Mr. Kang. I don't think your counsel is on the same page.
Could you repeat that?
I will settle with Ms. Lee.
If you are willing to settle, we can mediate.
Ms. Lee, will you accept his offer?
Could he have an ulterior motive?
I will accept it.
Great.
We will set a date for your mediation.
Sir, you don't have to settle.
If you settle, you won't be able to handle the criminal trial later.
I'll take care of it.
(Witness)
Kang Yoon Kyum,
Han Pan Ro, Han So Ra, and Kim Jung Chul.
I'm going to hold them responsible for murder.
What are they doing?
Why are they still together even at the courthouse?
Are there magnets in their bodies?
Ms. Han. Your name was mentioned, relevant to the murder charge...
That's strong liquor. You could really put yourself in danger.
I've done everything to separate them,
but none of it worked.
Are they twins?
Will they only be separated in death?
Is that it?
(Doctor Jung)
How come my dad isn't doing anything?
Why is he letting Lee La El make these ridiculous accusations?
This is so frustrating.
Do Wan.
Come to the studio.
Yes, Ms. Han.
Why are you here?
How did you know?
How did you get in here?
After everything that's happened, you still haven't realized that...
I know everything about you?
It took me 13 years to prepare...
for this.
Get out of here right now.
Sit down.
It's not easy to bring down my family.
You will never get away with this.
Kim Jung Chul has a disability now.
Han Pan Ro already started...
to figure out a way to weasel his way out alone.
Chairman Kang is trying to stay on my good side to survive this.
You saw that, didn't you?
Only you seem to be stuck in your own world...
without a plan.
It looks like...
you'll end up taking the fall alone for the murder charge.
You will run out of places to go.
No one is around you to take care of you.
You will crumble away in no time.
What will you do?
That's absurd.
It's great that we have things in common.
We know that...
fear is scarier...
when it's nearing us, not when it's right under our noses.
Fear isn't the worst when you're faced with it.
True fear is knowing...
you're about to be overcome.
I understand that you have your desires.
You shouldn't have made enemies.
Extreme fury...
seems to blur away the piercing pain on your own flesh.
My parents and I shed blood.
Now,
you and your family will shed blood.
I'm going to scatter the blood on my father's grave...
to let him know of your death.
Until the whole world is covered in your blood,
let's continue.
(Lee Tae Jun rests here.)
Dad.
Mr. Lee.
I'm deeply sorry I couldn't prove your innocence for a long time.
It's almost over,
so please wait a bit longer.
And don't worry too much about La El.
I will be with her until the end.
About the trial,
you'll have to face Mr. Kang alone during the mediation.
Will you be okay?
I have to go through with it.
Right.
(Courthouse)
(The 418th Courtroom, The 419th Courtroom)
Aside from the lawsuit filed by LY Victims Alliance,
this mediation is about possible compensation...
for the damages caused to the plaintiff's parents,
Lee Tae Jun and Kim Jin Sook.
Is it correct, Ms. Lee?
Correct.
(Conciliation Judge)
And you're willing to make a settlement, Mr. Kang.
That's right.
Along with Mr. Kang,
you've filed a suit...
against Han So Ra, Han Pan Ro, and Kim Jung Chul.
The problem is that the three of them have no intention of settling.
I'll persuade them.
Their attorney claims that...
most of the evidence you've submitted...
was collected illegally,
and thus, cannot hold legal force.
It's true you used illegal means...
to collect the evidence.
Identity theft, personal information breaches,
illegal recordings, and others.
The evidence cannot be used for the suit.
You got all that info through illegal approaches.
I lost my parents at the age of 15.
I had nothing under my name.
No one listened to me.
It was the only way to reveal the truth.
I was just a little girl who had no choice whatsoever.
I couldn't afford to have a sense of justice.
(Conciliation Judge)
And...
not everything was a lie.
Ms. Lee.
Of the damages you claim,
your mother went missing.
Her death hasn't been confirmed yet.
The criminal investigation is being held to reveal it.
But the case hasn't been ruled yet.
That makes it hard to come to a settlement.
I'd like...
to quickly come to an agreement at least with this trial...
as a way...
to apologize to the plaintiff.
Therefore, I will assume that her claims are valid...
and agree to settle.
Even when there is no evidence to prove...
that Kim Jin Sook is dead?
Once I receive my mother's belongings,
I'll submit them as evidence to prove her death.
I doubt...
that can prove her death.
One's intention to settle is important for mediation.
I will check them myself.
Good.
Then I will see you next time.
If not everything was a lie,
then what wasn't a lie?
Is it important?
Would it affect the settlement?
I'll be going.
I need to hurry and submit my mother's belongings.
I'll check them myself.
That way, you can skip the paperwork.
Let me go with you.
I'll check this part and get back to you.
- Sure. - Right.
(Kim Hyun Chul)
Hi, Hyun Chul.
Go ahead.
They have informed me...
that they can't hand over La El's mother's things.
Han Pan Ro made an issue out of La El's fake identity.
What do you mean?
I'm sorry, but I can't let you take her items.
Mr. Han Pan Ro suddenly raised a legal problem.
The supervisory institution has taken them instead.
The public law center authorized me.
We're discussing what to do about this too.
If you'd wait a moment, I'll get back to you.
Why are you still wearing the ring?
I haven't had a chance to take it off.
When you found out about me. That was your chance.
I put it on my finger because I love you.
I'll take it off when I fall out of love.
Hatred doesn't mean...
I don't love you anymore.
No?
Can you answer me one thing?
I believed in twin flames.
I saw the resemblance of me from your pain.
Even in this situation,
I felt a connection between us.
Was there even a single moment...
when you were true to me?
Twin flames can communicate even without saying anything.
Especially at moments of life and death,
they transcend time and space to find each other.
That can't be us.
I approached you to bring you down.
Would fate play a part in that?
Chief Secretary Seo.
I apologize. I didn't think you'd come in person.
These papers prove Lee La El is the legitimate heir.
The paperwork is flawless, so why won't the authority give permission?
It's because...
Han Pan Ro complained.
I have no power or say in it.
Do you do things...
with power and not principle?
Shall I do that too?
We got the final go-ahead.
The flash drive contains your mother's last video.
(Personal Belongings, Kim Jin Sook)
(I protested on my own again today.)
I protested on my own again today.
Kang Yoon Kyum came to work.
(Gediks Semiconductors)
(Investigate Lee Tae Jun's unlawful death!)
Han Pan Ro and Kim Jung Chul came and went.
Seeing them smile and talk...
pains me to death.
Don't just stand there. Get rid of her.
(Gediks Semiconductors)
No.
I'm abused every day,
and no one listens to me,
but if I don't even do this, I can't go on.
Being alive...
is worse than purgatory.
(To La El)
Anorexia?
Self-harming?
How did you end up like that?
My heart breaks for you.
I'm sorry I couldn't protect you.
Forget the memories of your dad being tortured, La El.
You can't live with that on your mind.
I will bear the burden, so you forget about it.
They must be the happiest couple in all of Korea.
We're outside Han So Ra's home.
She will marry the heir to LY Group...
that just became a huge company after taking over...
Gediks Semiconductors.
(Will LY go from 30th to one of the largest companies?)
You evil scumbags!
Get her up.
You scumbags.
How could you take someone's life...
and make a living out of it?
You'll pay for it!
Kang Yoon Kyum. Han Pan Ro.
Murderers!
Burn in a pit of fire!
Because of me...
you lived in such pain.
I had no idea.
You were so young then.
I can't even ask for forgiveness.
I'm so sorry.
Yes.
Pay for it with your life!
I'll do anything.
If I must really die...
I'll do it.
[VIU Ver] tvN E15 'Eve' "Love for One’s Enemy" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
Wait in the car.
Mr. Seo.
What should I do now?
Tell me.
I concede to the charges brought up by the LY Victims Alliance.
Gediks Semiconductors was a company we wished to buy out.
We offered a deal 13 years ago that was turned down,
and there was a conspiracy to take the company by force.
In the process, Gediks' CEO Lee Tae Jun...
unfortunately lost his life.
He died of wounds caused by torture, and it was a premeditated murder.
The deaths of his wife Kim Jin Sook and of Jang Moon Hee...
are related.
I believe an investigation must be launched.
Get out here, Yoon Kyum!
Show yourself!
He's not here.
I know he's upstairs!
Get out here!
I don't know where he is.
Take them outside.
- Don't you know who I am? - You can't do this here.
I'm not here to see you.
Kang Yoon Kyum, come down here!
Come over here!
In the process, Gediks' CEO Lee Tae Jun...
unfortunately lost his life.
He died of wounds caused by torture, and it was a premeditated murder.
What? Premeditated murder?
That means he's targeting me. That punk.
I'm no pushover.
Is everyone after me now?
Pan Ro, did you see the news?
- What... - Darn you!
Keep your piehole shut!
Pan Ro?
Darn it.
Who's here?
The police. They're here to question you.
After the chairman's press conference,
murder charges for Jang Moon Hee and Kim Jin Sook were added.
Say I have no idea.
Why me?
I did nothing wrong.
Someone sent the police a recording...
that incriminates you.
The police chief who is our ally told me.
(Voice Recording)
You will keep betraying each other,
suffer in loneliness, and die all alone without anyone around.
That will be your punishment!
This time too, you locked Jang Moon Hee up.
You made Kim Jin Sook starve to death.
You killed both the wenches.
That wench knows that I have her.
- If my husband finds out... - Put her down.
Ma'am. The police are still outside. What should I do?
Tell them I'm not in!
Okay.
My husband. Where is he?
Call him.
Ask him what I should do.
The chairman...
disappeared after the press conference.
No one knows where he is.
His secretaries are in a panic.
Who sent the police this recording?
Who got this and how?
(Bo Ram's mom)
The recording the police got.
Isn't it quite something?
It was edited to make you look guilty.
Do you know who did it?
Han Pan Ro made a deal with me.
In return for handing you over,
he wants to be pardoned.
After all I did for you, how dare you put me in this trouble?
Just like your mother, you have no worth living.
You've gone blinded by one man.
Only you seem to be stuck in your own world without a plan.
You will run out of places to go.
No one is around you to take care of you.
You will crumble away in no time.
It looks like...
you'll end up taking the fall alone for the murder charge.
I won't believe a word out of your mouth.
The truck driver,
whom you and Kim Jung Chul asked to dispose of the bodies,
will comply with a subpoena by the prosecution.
Even your husband didn't love you.
Your own father abandoned you now.
You will die alone.
No one will sympathize with you.
Do Wan.
I just heard from Lee La El.
Did my father...
really betray me?
Ms. Han. Your father has been talking to the prosecutor...
that you were the one who instigated everything.
He said if one person took the fall,
the sentence would be lighter.
(Doctor Jung)
I knew that Han So Ra's lover wouldn't be anyone of significance.
And there was no twist either.
Moon Do Wan.
Chief Secretary Seo.
I'm sorry. Please forgive me!
I have a sick mother.
I just needed money.
Please.
Please forgive me. I'm sorry.
How could I forgive a man who tried to kill me?
You shouldn't be asking for forgiveness.
Think about what you can do for us.
(Law Firm Woonseo)
This won't be enough evidence.
The photos of the cell...
She gave these photos to the police?
So Ra did that?
Yes.
Darn it. I ought to teach that useless girl a lesson.
That brat.
Sir!
You can't do this to Ms. Han. She's your daughter!
How dare you interfere?
Get out of my way!
Dad!
You brat.
Did you betray me?
Did you sell me off, so you could save yourself?
I'm glad you're here.
Did you give them the photos of the basement cell?
Who do you think is responsible for ruining my life?
It's all your fault!
Everything is ruined because of you!
Dad.
Stop!
Ms. Han!
Ms. Han. You should stop this.
If you take this further, I'll be as good as dead too.
I told you to shut your mouth!
If we let him go, your life would be the least of your worries.
He will kill me first.
Hurry!
Lock it.
Lock it!
Hey, open it.
Is that you, So Ra?
Hey.
Open...
I won't let you hurt me like Mom.
I'm not that little girl...
who can't stand up to you anymore!
I got it. Just open the door.
Get a grip.
Come here.
Open it.
I'll be away because people keep coming here...
because of the lawsuits.
You're all on vacation.
Don't come back until I call you back.
- Yes, ma'am. - Yes, ma'am.
You can leave now.
What about your father?
Didn't you hear me? Get out.
If you do anything stupid, you'll end up just like him.
Got it?
Yes, ma'am.
Chairman Kang has never been unreachable for this long.
Should I report him missing to the police?
Chairman Kang can't be reached?
(Law Firm Woonseo)
We found this message on his computer.
It kind of looks like a suicide note.
He resigned from his position too.
I knew I shouldn't come here to ask you,
but I had no choice.
I wish to resign from my position...
and put everything behind.
Everything is crumbling all together at once.
I feel devastated, but this is all my fault.
There's no way...
to make up for those who suffered because of me.
So I've decided to take sole responsibility.
Die. If anyone refuses to die,
kill them all,
then kill yourself.
Then it will end.
Pay for it with your life!
If I must really die...
I'll do it.
Do you have any idea?
(Kim Jin Sook)
We demanded a confession,
and he chose to disappear.
(Kim Jin Sook)
Maybe he decided to pay the price.
It's a good thing.
(Secretary Cha)
The Legal Team has told me...
that the chairman wrote a will about bequeathing...
all his authority and shares to you...
and leaving his personal fortune to Miss Da Bi.
The task team will be in charge until she becomes an adult.
I keep getting bad feelings.
(Chairman Kang Yoon Kyum)
The phone is turned off.
You'll be directed to voicemail after the beep.
Extra fees will be charged.
I told him...
to die.
To die and pay the price.
If he's found dead,
the responsibility will be on me.
I was so cruel to him.
It was wrong of me.
Chairman Kang isn't that weak.
We'll find him. Don't worry.
Have you heard the term "twin flame"?
Like twins that emerged from one soul,
the lovers recognize each other the second they met.
Whatever happens,
the twin flames are bound to find each other.
Twin flames can find each other...
at moments of life and death.
(Straight and Left Turn)
If I must really die...
I'll do it.
Fate brought us together.
I fell madly in love with you for all the similarities between us.
You understood me, and I could show myself to you.
I can't live without you now.
I love you.
Chairman Kang?
Chairman Kang.
What are you doing here?
I was terrified...
something might have happened to you.
I didn't mean...
what I said.
I shouldn't have said that.
I...
(Prime Minister Han Pan Ro)
The person you have called cannot be reached.
You will be directed to voicemail.
Darn, he's not even answering his phone?
Unbelievable.
- Oh, my. Sir, stop it. - Move!
You stop, darn wench.
After all that he made me do,
he's treating me like a pushover now?
What does he take me for?
He got me all wrong!
Secretary Cha,
Where's my husband?
I need him badly right now.
Without him,
I might lose myself.
Please let me...
He's unable to be reached.
Mr. Seo even reported him missing.
Honey.
(Secretary Kim)
Ma'am. We found the chairman.
Where is he?
At the holiday home.
But...
But what?
The groundskeeper said she was with him.
Pan Ro!
Show yourself!
You can't treat me like this!
Pan Ro!
Come on out!
Where's your dad?
He treats me like some pushover!
I can't stand it anymore.
My dad sold everything and fled abroad.
Darn it.
Now it's just us two.
If we don't get Lee La El,
we take the fall for everything.
Lee La El! I'm coming for you!
The CCTV system found Chairman Kang's car.
I think La El's with him.
There's a problem.
What is it?
Near the holiday home...
is a company car.
(Eve)
Do you have a wish?
I want to feel no fury.
I can't find Da Bi!
Da Bi!
No.
I think La El has been abducted.
Check surveillance near the holiday home.
Stop the car!
What about you?
I want to love...
the person I love to no end.
