(Episode 22)
I'm not suspicious. I'm certain.
I heard everything.
I heard it all from Mr. Lim...
and the voice recording of you blackmailing him!
So, you better brace yourself.
Is that so?
What if it's not true?
In that case, you better brace yourself too!
Fine.
But if you have anything to do with Mother's death,
then,
I don't know...
what I'll do with you.
You won't even need to brace yourself.
Where are you? Did you arrive?
(Ji Chang)
Hey, Ji Chang.
Where are you? You won't even pick up your phone.
We're starting to have visitors.
I'm sorry. The thing is, Ji Chang,
I'm on my way to meet Mr. Lim.
What? You found him?
He said he'd expose everything.
Perhaps, Mother's death may have been...
I'm behind the wheel right now. Let's talk later.
You're here...
This doesn't look like Mauritius.
It's a bit too cold, isn't it?
Gosh.
You can do this, Kyung Ja.
You have to do this.
Goodness.
What happened?
What?
Mr. Lim!
Mr. Lim.
(Funeral Hall)
I couldn't have had a better sister-in-law.
She was dear to me and greatly treasured,
as if she were my real sister.
Oh, my. Director Kim.
I'm a Park.
Exactly, Director Park.
Thank you for coming in the midst of your busy schedule.
Why don't I see any drinks on this table?
- Let me bring some wine. - Excuse me.
Yes, coming.
Please excuse me for a moment.
- Hey, where's Hye Won? - Where's Hye Won?
Right? Where did she go, and why hasn't she returned?
I wonder.
Your mother adored Hye Won so much while she was still with us.
This doesn't seem proper.
Hello?
Yes, I am Ms. Lee Hye Won's husband.
What did you say? She's at the police station?
"The police station?"
Goodness, are you okay?
Yes.
Were there any other witnesses other than you, the reporter?
Probably not.
How was he when you found him?
He was unconscious,
so I called 911 right away.
We found his suicide note in the memo app on his phone.
- "Suicide note?" - Yes.
We'd have to investigate,
but he recently seemed tormented...
because he fell into debt after making a failed investment.
He made up the sexual assault charge because of that reason,
so when his victim suddenly died,
he must've fallen into shock and guilt.
No.
We were going to meet here,
so why would he suddenly kill himself?
- Hye Won! - Ji Chang.
Are you her husband?
Yes, what happened?
Ji Chang, Mr. Lim apparently killed himself.
This is ridiculous.
How can something like this happen?
Let's leave for now.
May we go?
We're in mourning right now.
What happened to Mother was already ridiculous enough, and now, Mr. Lim?
There's something more to this.
I understand, so please calm down.
I can't believe this.
I met with Mother just two days ago,
and she was perfectly fine.
I also talked to Mr. Lim just an hour or two before this.
I could understand your feelings,
but Mom had a heart attack...
and Lim Dan Ung killed himself.
He didn't kill himself.
We were going to meet.
He called me first in shock...
after he heard what happened to Mother!
Of course, he was in shock!
He did that to Mom!
That was why he killed himself out of guilt!
He didn't kill himself.
Bae Do Eun took things this far to cover up her scheme!
She blackmailed Mr. Lim into framing Mother with sexual assault.
There was a voice recording of her blackmailing him,
and I heard it too.
- A voice recording? - Yes.
It's in a recorder shaped like a fountain pen.
Mother heard that recording...
and went to see Bae Do Eun.
All right.
Then, why didn't you tell me?
Because...
"I'll tell you later."
"Everything will be exposed."
These were all you ever said again and again.
Why didn't you tell me?
Was I that untrustworthy as a husband?
I could've gone to see her.
I could have stopped Mom from going!
- Ji Chang... - Can't you just...
comfort me?
I get how this is troubling you,
but are you as troubled as I am?
Mom's death is already driving me insane,
but I get dozens and dozens of calls and texts from reporters.
I'm the one...
who wants to kill myself now.
Will you please spare me first...
before you continue to talk about the dead Mr. Lim?
Let's meet now, Mr. Lim.
Let's meet somewhere discreet, away from people's eyes.
I'll meet you at that mineral spring.
What's wrong, Do Eun?
What is it?
I suddenly have cramps.
Hye Won, could you take me home?
Wait...
Hye Won, we've been away from Mom's wake for too long.
We have to go.
You can go to the car first. I'll be there soon.
Detective, I'm Lee Hye Won, the witness for Mr. Lim Dan Ung.
Well, about the suicide note you found on his phone,
Mr. Lim's suicide note.
Is there a way for me to look at it?
You were certain he didn't breathe anymore, right?
And there were no CCTVs?
Thank you, Kyung Ja.
For today, stay in hiding as if you were dead.
I'll call you.
Mother.
What did Bae Do Eun do to you?
- Dad. - Hey, there.
- Aunt Min Sook. - What about the urgent affair?
Goodness, Hye Won.
My gosh. How can something like this happen?
You must be in shock.
You should have a seat.
Let us be. You need all the help you can get.
- Yes, so don't mind us and go back. - He's right.
- Excuse me. - Yes.
Hye Won.
San Deul.
Did you stop by the funeral hall and pay your respects?
No.
Let's do that now.
I'm scared, Hye Won.
I was reminded of the time when my mom died,
so I didn't want to come here.
You must be sad too.
I am.
What about Ji Chang?
That poor kid.
You should do your best to comfort him.
I hate death.
Disappearing from this world...
is just too scary.
I hope no one I know ever dies.
No one will die now.
No one will die.
It's all right.
I received her bag and phone.
Was there anything else?
Those were all we found at our hotel.
What about a voice recorder... No.
There must be a fountain pen.
Please look carefully. It's very important.
Then, I'll check and call you back.
Please do. Please.
Thank you.
I'll do it from now on.
This is as far as you come.
No. I'll take action.
What happens to you is what happens to me.
Also, Ji Chang and I were angrier and more frustrated...
than you.
I know.
But still, this is between me, that woman,
and your father-in-law.
This affair is between us.
This wouldn't have happened to Mother...
if only I hadn't said that.
If only I hadn't done that...
Goodness.
How can you leave in such vain?
Yes.
Oh, my. Is that...
the sound of Yi Chul crying?
Was this how you wanted to punish me?
Did it make you happy to leave like this?
It feels as if I can still feel your warmth.
I'm sorry.
I hope you rest in peace...
on the other side.
I'm sorry.
You fool.
"Yesterday night, Lim Dan Ung, an artist affiliated..."
"with Judan Foundation,"
"was found dead in his car."
"A suicide note detailing his miserable situation was found,"
"and there were no circumstances to suspect homicide."
"The police presumed Lim took his own life."
- Darn it. - Yes!
What if I end up going to prison again?
Back then, I got locked up for petty theft,
but this time, someone died.
Be quiet, Kyung Ja.
You didn't kill anyone.
The police said he killed himself.
Darn it. But still, I'm scared.
Don't worry.
He suffered from depression and even stuffed himself with sleeping pills,
so they would not get suspicious.
Also, you said there were no CCTVs...
or passersby other than Lee Hye Won.
Yes, fate must've been on your side.
There was absolutely no one around other than Lee Hye Won.
Don't say that fate was on my side.
It's all thanks to you.
Your first gig ended with perfection.
You have a knack for this.
A knack, my foot.
Darn it.
It's a token of my gratitude.
You know how I feel, right?
Yes.
That jerk deserved to die.
Of course.
How dare he bring a voice recorder and stab me in the back?
Only death awaits a traitor.
We shall never betray one another, okay?
Of course.
We're in the same boat.
We'll either succeed together or fail together.
Yes, you know what?
I'm hungry.
Right. Yes.
I'll make something delicious.
Yi Chul isn't here, so let me cook for you.
One top-grade tenderloin steak, coming right up.
(Standard voice recording)
I really hope we succeed together.
I need this as my backup plan to make sure that happens.
In the same boat, my foot.
You killed a man.
You and I are over.
I probably shouldn't talk like this,
but I got to see you today, thanks to Ms. Oh.
Just cut to the chase.
Mr. Jeong of Kim and Jeong Law Firm...
sent you here with a corporate card, right?
You know him too well.
If you already know that, come back.
If you want, I'll work as your partner.
I'll think about it once BLO goes under.
That tiny office will never go under.
You didn't get an investment or hire employees.
Why are you acting so strange,
refusing to take the biggest cases at the most prominent law firm?
Hey, anyway.
About Ms. Oh Soo Hyang's son,
the one you tutored.
Ji Chang? Yes.
You probably saw him at the funeral hall.
No, he must've been away.
So you probably paid your respects and left without seeing Hye Won.
Anyway, what about Ji Chang?
What's he like?
Is he amusing?
- Or maybe funny? - Goodness.
Don't people usually ask...
if the guy is either good-looking or a big shot?
So? What's his specialty?
Does he have any talents?
Is he good at impersonations?
His existence itself is talent, from his background, looks,
and even personality.
He's not an eccentric like you.
That means he doesn't have any special talents.
Oh, my gosh.
Okay. Let's go. I'm done.
It's fine. This is on me.
I'll end up sick if I eat anything on Kim and Jeong's corporate card.
Let's split the check. I'll pay just my half.
You must be exhausted.
No, I'm fine.
You should comfort and embrace...
both Ji Chang and Hye Won.
I'll go to a nearby Buddhist temple and remember her on the 49th day.
I'll pray for her peaceful rest...
and ask her to punish me if she wants to,
for I will gladly accept it.
I was the one who should have been punished.
You didn't do anything wrong.
It's all my fault.
I am...
the sinner.
Sinner, my foot.
That was a tough event.
Thanks to everything, your mother...
must have passed away in peace.
It was such a shame,
but if this was her fate, what could we do about it?
I am unsure if this is a coincidence or destiny,
but we'll soon have a new life in our family.
It's a bit of comfort amid this tragedy.
That is why I want to say this, Ji Chang.
Do not have a child...
until the day your sibling is born.
It would be chaotic for you...
to have both a sibling and your own child at the same time.
We've already had enough scandals for a while.
If the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law...
both went around pregnant, people would begin to talk.
I cannot bear to see people use us as gossip anymore.
Why won't you say anything?
Yes, I understand.
You don't have to worry.
We aren't ready to become parents.
Also, Judan Foundation for Arts...
will turn into YJ's product exhibition.
Don't worry.
The foundation will continue to function...
under a different name at YJ's headquarters,
as the Culture and Arts Team.
Just make sure the takeover goes smoothly.
Are you firing Hye Won right now?
Mother has put in over ten years of hard work...
for Judan Foundation for Arts, Grandmother.
Also, one of our businesses will come to fruition soon.
If you close it down so abruptly...
Are you saying this because you wish to be the director?
Grandma.
I'll cut down on useless budgets like the scholarship foundation.
We'll only use the team...
as a means to cut down on taxes and create slush funds.
And in the first half of next year, make sure you bring back...
the funds you gave out to artists.
I'll persuade Grandmother...
to continue with the businesses Mother has pushed forward.
You can go talk to Dad and the Finance Team.
Ji Chang, can you help me?
I need to get some fresh air...
and spend some time alone to collect my thoughts.
Tell the elders that I'm on a business trip.
Okay.
Have a safe trip.
Could I be...
Hello?
Did you find the fountain pen?
We haven't found any pens among our lost and found.
I also checked with the maid who cleaned the hotel room.
All right.
Dad, Ji Chang went on a business trip,
and I missed you so much, so I wanted to go home.
No, don't make anything.
I'll pick up your favorite dish, braised monkfish.
Bye.
A collaboration?
Yes, it's like a business agreement.
Those who visit BLO...
will receive a 50-percent discount at the tteokbokki place.
Those who visit this tteokbokki place...
will also receive a 50-percent discount at BLO.
But a tteokbokki place and a law office...
seem too far-fetched to cooperate.
Okay, fine.
Then, just send me your customers.
For every ten clients you send my way,
I'll give you one free BLO coupon.
What's so good about that?
And I have no business at an attorney's office.
Of course, you do. I show voice impersonations...
and give you interesting quizzes.
I hope you come to your senses.
Wait.
I only have pieces of rice cake left.
It would mark a wonderful ending if I could get more sauce.
What? You were my neighbor, so I even gave you an extra serving.
You can't ask me for more.
But I can't just eat the rice cake...
or throw everything out!
Yes.
I'll hand in the evidence you sent me...
at the next trial in writing.
Also, if you want to say anything to the judge,
you can come to the next trial with me.
It could help to complain about the injustice...
instead of sitting on your hands.
Yes. Goodbye.
Gosh.
His existence itself...
is talent, from his background, looks,
and even personality.
He's not an eccentric like you.
You're such a big shot, Sung Yoon.
You passed the bar exam as soon as you graduated,
then got a car as a present.
You're on the highway to success.
Why must I take you for a drive as soon as I get a new car?
You don't have a girlfriend to take for a drive...
because you turn down everyone who asks you out.
Are you crushing on anyone?
Hey, Sung Yoon, let's go.
Hey, the key is inside.
- You can take it for a drive. - What?
For a what?
Hey, I'll really get in. I'm getting in!
Ma'am, let me push you from behind.
Goodness, it's too heavy.
It's not heavy at all.
- You should just look ahead. - It's okay, really.
Thank you.
The days are cold, right?
Hye Won does smile a lot.
How pretty.
- Hye Won... - Hye Won!
- Hey. - Hey.
Push harder!
Let me jump in too.
We're almost there.
Gosh.
My stomach hurts.
It must be because I haven't thought this hard for a while.
My stomach hurts so much.
(Pharmacy)
My stomach hurts.
Did I eat too much of the food he gave me on the house?
May I have a pregnancy test kit?
Sure.
Here. That's three dollars.
What?
(Pregnancy Test Kit)
Thank you.
- May I help you? - What?
- Yes, digestive medicine. - Goodness.
She left this behind. What do I do?
I'll give it back to her.
- She's an acquaintance. - Sure.
Wait!
Why did you leave this behind?
(The Two Sisters)
Ji Chang, I wanted you to be the first to know...
and celebrate this with me.
We met again!
- This means we're meant to be. - You're scaring me.
Goodbye!
There's a likely suspect.
Is there a way?
It's hard to reopen a closed case for a reinvestigation.
All I need now is for you to disappear, Hye Won.
Bae Do Eun, is there anything genuine about you?
Take a good look. Your future will look like this.
