That day,
Hyo-rin's dad went to Hwa-young's place.
Do you still drink?
This is the most sober I've been since high school.
All thanks to you.
How old are you again?
Twenty-nine.
The prime of your life will be at age 29.
I heard that you got fired.
Buckle up. It's all downhill from here.
And do see a psychiatrist.
By the way, Ma-ri.
You've received a scholarship from Won Gi-seon since middle school.
Why didn't you mention that?
First off, you should quit the election program.
If this gets out later, you'll be in trouble.
Why would I be?
I got a scholarship for getting good grades.
Is that bad?
That day, the sky was dark, and the weather suddenly turned cold.
When I came home, my mom and dad were fighting.
Dad left home without even looking at me.
He took my late grandfather's car.
It was odd. I had never seen him do that before.
Mom?
Mom.
I was anxious.
It seemed like both Mom and Dad would never return.
That's why I cut myself.
Wait just a moment, okay?
I clearly remember.
The weather and the air of that day.
Did you know Hwa-young died
on that day?
I don't even know who she is.
How can you draw something you've never seen?
Maybe you saw a photo.
I didn't.
But this scene…
It wasn't my first time seeing it.
What?
For a long time,
that scene would randomly come into my mind.
Just as the wind would carry an unfamiliar scent.
It was faint.
But on that day, it came clearer than usual.
So are you saying you saw that scene even before Hwa-young died?
The orchid.
The orchid?
There's a secret orchid room here.
It's used to keep illegal poisonous orchids.
I also saw something as I painted there.
I saw the death of that girl, In-seon.
So the orchid works as a hallucinogen?
Does it help see the future?
Some say you can see ghosts if you smell it for a long time.
Does that orchid look like this?
I think so. What about you?
In-joo.
You're a lousy artist.
But, In-joo…
I don't think my dad killed her
just because he went there.
Also…
this dashcam footage is mine.
If you take it without my permission,
I'll kill myself.
Don't worry, Hyo-rin. I understand how you feel.
If I need that video, I'll make sure I get your permission.
It's been a tough night.
So let's take these and go to sleep.
Mr. Park, is it true that your father owned real estate worth eight billion won?
Did you lie about your unfortunate background?
Did you inherit the real estate?
-Do you plan on disclosing your assets? -Please say something!
-Say something! -Any words?
-What's your take? -Is this true?
-Where is it now? -Mr. Park!
The father of Park Jae-sang, a candidate for the mayor of Seoul,
has been suspected of illegal accumulation of wealth.
A reporter raised the suspicion on a TV debate program this evening.
Park's father,
who's known as a Vietnam War veteran and a victim of Agent Orange,
supposedly owned illegal real estate worth eight billion won.
However, Park's camp did not provide any explanation,
raising more suspicions.
Next story.
Gojin Social Welfare Foundation located in Chungcheongbuk-do has received
a total of 200 million won of anonymous donations…
Where are you?
If it's true, why didn't you cover it exclusively?
-Yes, why? -Why were you fired?
I'm busy right now.
-Just say something. -I'll call you later, Great-Aunt.
-Please give us a response. -Don't hang up, In-kyung.
This is a certified copy of the register for the mentioned real estate.
CERTIFIED COPY OF THE REGISTER
Feel free to report this however you like.
But I was dismissed by OBN as of today.
So do not make a mistake when you disclose the source.
-Why were you fired? -Is Park Jae-sang involved?
-Was there external pressure? -Just give me an answer.
-Come on. -Why were you fired?
-How did you know? -What happened?
What do you think you're doing?
Did you hide it?
Is this why you gave her the sleeping pills?
To steal that footage?
Hyo-rin has the right to hide it. This concerns her dad.
My friend died.
You're covering up a murder case. Don't you get what's more important?
What makes you so sure that she was murdered?
Are the rich always assailants, whereas the poor are victims?
That is nothing but a self-centered delusion of the poor.
How can you…
Starting with the eight o'clock news on TUBS,
every cable and online news outlet is pumping out articles.
What should we do?
No one will hear my refutation now.
Give them a few days until they're satisfied.
I'll catch up on my sleep.
The primaries are in five days.
Are you sure?
That brat.
Hello.
What brings you here?
I've always had high expectations of you.
I wonder why you're here today.
Did they follow me here?
You were headed somewhere with a face that shouted out trouble.
Busted, right?
What is it today?
You have something there.
What did you bring with you?
Get your hands off me!
Oh, no.
My gosh. If a single fish dies, you'll have to take responsibility!
She asked me to take care of them before she died.
My goodness.
I'm sorry, Hwa-young.
What are you doing? Get some water.
Oh, sure.
Goodness.
How does it feel to have a father who is a murderer?
It feels bad. Very bad.
Even worse than a father who is poor?
It's not that bad.
But it could get worse depending on the situation.
If he gets arrested
or if the world finds out.
Hyo-rin.
Yes?
No matter what happens,
don't let the fact that your dad is a murderer eat your life away.
Okay.
Then what should I do?
First off, don't trust anybody,
as if you and I are the only ones in this world.
And we need to think.
Let's think.
Come in.
Mr. Park.
I said I don't want to see anyone today.
My great-aunt wants to meet you.
She has something to tell you.
I have nothing to discuss with her.
She told me to pass this on to you.
Once you see it, you'll want to talk to her.
This was the day
when your father bought his first car.
He was thrilled like a child that day,
even though he rarely smiled.
He knew everything about cars,
so he'd fix broken ones easily.
But when he became ill, he never went to a hospital.
He hated associating with people.
That's why I came.
I was the only one he trusted.
Syringe Lady.
You also gave me a shot when I got sick.
I always knew you would make it big.
Such a bright little child.
What is it that you want?
Ever since I ran into you at the hospital,
my business began to face difficulties.
Contracts canceled, loans declined,
intermediate payments and balances unpaid, and lawsuits opened.
And don't you feign ignorance.
I couldn't figure out who you were, so I did a little poking around
to see how you would react.
I'm here to negotiate.
This time, In-kyung was in the wrong.
She's acting like that because she's clueless.
Let's call it even now.
You and I both need to live. Otherwise, we'll both die.
At this age,
there's nothing I'm afraid of.
What I still don't understand is this.
If you were a close associate of this family,
you couldn't have parted ways with them alive.
How did you manage to do it?
And why do I not know anything about you?
You don't know anything about me
because I was closer to the General than you were to him.
I'm still alive to this day
because the General wanted to keep me alive.
Because I'm the one who saved his life.
Right.
Did you know?
Your father called me the day before he passed away.
Why?
He asked me to bring him a strong antidiarrheal drug.
He had bowel problems when he got nervous.
That's how I knew
that there would be trouble soon.
But I didn't think he would pass away.
He didn't want to be found in soiled pants.
That was utterly unnecessary.
Ms. Go is already dying to get rid of you.
Park Jae-sang was the one who killed Hwa-young.
I saw dashcam footage of him visiting her place that night.
And? It's not like you didn't know the kind of person Park Jae-sang is.
Why do you act shocked?
Think rationally. That can't be used as evidence of murder.
You can't do a thing with that.
I saw something in the video. I wanted to check something.
Can't I do that much?
Once I leave for Singapore,
what happened on the day of her death will be covered up forever.
What did you check?
The town elder.
I wasn't home that day,
-so I didn't see anything. -He said he wasn't home that day.
Someone stole it a few days ago. Just the dashcam.
Someone came and destroyed all the evidence.
I wanted to know who that was.
I wanted to see who comes running over when I go to Hwa-young's place.
Did you think it could have been me?
Is that why you didn't tell me?
To be honest,
I've been scared of you ever since I saw this.
You said you could do anything for money,
but I didn't think you would sacrifice your girlfriend for business.
When I asked Mazatlán's local paper to release this article,
I hoped people would believe that Ms. Hwang Bo-ra was dead.
But now that you say you believed it,
why am I rather disappointed?
Is this…
Ms. Hwang Bo-ra?
She seems happy, right?
I check in to see if she's doing well.
I changed her identity and helped her escape forever.
She was my first client.
Are you free later today?
I'd like to go somewhere with you.
I received a question from a reporter yesterday,
asking if it was true
that my father had owned real estate worth around eight billion won.
My response is as follows.
It's true.
However, there were a few things the reporter missed.
His assets before he passed in 2013 didn't amount to 8 billion won.
They amounted to a total of 20 billion won.
This is my father in 2013.
He was a private chauffeur of 40 years for General Won Gi-seon,
raising his only son in a one-room residence.
Things didn't change even after he passed away,
leaving 20 billion won of real estate.
I did not know anything about his assets.
Can you imagine how shocked I was
as I settled his assets?
Then it came to my mind.
My father-in-law, General Won Gi-seon, who suffered a stroke that year,
could have been keeping his assets under my father's name.
We investigated,
and it was true.
My wife and I had a long discussion.
The faults of our fathers.
This long, dark, and distorted relationship.
Can we expose this to the world
and apologize?
I'm ashamed to say
that we couldn't.
My father passed away,
and my father-in-law is in bed due to a coma.
As their children, we couldn't expose them.
"FOUND TO BE FATHER-IN-LAW'S ASSETS"
Looking back at it now,
although it would have been excruciatingly painful…
What's she doing there?
…I should have asked for forgiveness.
However, we decided to use
every single penny to open up a new era.
My wife and I operate a total of four foundations,
worth a total of 38 billion won.
During a given year, we provide scholarships to 1,000 students.
PARK JAE-SANG FOUNDATION
LIST OF SCHOLARSHIP STUDENTS
Kim Yu-taek, mathematician. Seol Min-su, space engineer.
Park Chang-il, pianist. Moon Do-hyeong, architect.
Kang Chan-hui, swimmer. Kim Hyeok, taekwondo athlete.
And countless people on the list of scholarship students continue
to bring honor to Park Jae-sang Foundation since the Wonryeong Foundation days.
Ex-reporter Oh In-kyung, who exposed the suspicion of your father's assets,
has a sister who received support
from your foundation through scholarships and medical treatment.
Is this true?
I have no comment on that.
"THE MONEY WILL BE USED AS SCHOLARSHIP"
The key business of our foundation is to support our future talents.
The four scholarship foundations each have a specialty…
What's going on? You knew this would happen, didn't you?
You could've given me a heads-up.
Ms. Oh, did you ever think about why you have the 70 billion in your account?
How would I know?
It was his campaign fund.
The fund was to come in from abroad at the time of his campaign,
but Hwa-young snatched it.
I'm going to Singapore soon because the election is going well.
Our 70-billion deal with the ledger would only work
as long as his election goes well.
We can only make the deal if the damage that ledger can cause
is larger than 70 billion won.
So to get that 70 billion won,
I should keep my mouth shut
about Hwa-young's death and my sisters?
I would put it this way.
To make sure Hwa-young's death wasn't in vain,
the only thing you can do is finish what she started.
In order to do that, you should put up with small inconveniences.
Gosh.
Money must really be the only thing you care about.
I told you so.
"WILL GLADLY ACCEPT CRITICISMS AND CONCERNS"
Great-Aunt.
Go and get In-kyung right now.
In-hye.
In-hye!
In-hye.
Didn't you know he established the foundation with that money?
Didn't you do your research?
Did you agree to your sister accepting the scholarship?
Do you approve of the foundation established with borrowed-name assets?
If you don't, will you return the scholarship?
-What's your plan? -Why didn't you research further?
This is the end.
Once you accept your defeat, they won't mess with you anymore.
If you can swallow humiliation, it's good for you.
You can stay crouched for the moment, then rise back up.
If I hadn't exposed it in a rush, I would have figured out
that the real estate was used to fund the foundation.
It's all right.
People forget easily.
But you know…
I got Park Il-bok's property registration from the archives of your company.
I found the files going back to the 70s when you were in real estate speculation.
Mr. Park's properties
were bought and sold with you at his side.
What's your relationship with those people, Great-Aunt?
You know who they are, don't you?
Please tell me.
They are people who can ruin
the company I've built for years in one fell swoop.
They are people who can make you three disappear off the face of the earth.
They are the people who are everywhere from the lowest to the highest places.
So I can't tell you.
I must protect my company,
and I do not want to see you fall in danger.
Then tell me just one thing.
How did you become rich?
How did every piece of land you bought in the 70s and 80s
end up with apartment complexes, roads,
and industrial complexes?
Those were the good days.
I had adequate information, and I happened to have money.
I was always a step ahead of everyone else.
In 1988,
there was an interesting article
on the land you bought with Mr. Park Il-bok in Seocho-dong.
"Go Ju-won, a military officer under investigation for land speculation
by using inside information from the Ministry of National Defense, died."
"On the first, the prosecution said that Go died in a car accident
while returning home from his questioning."
"Go obtained information that over 20,000 pyeong of the military zone
in Seocho-dong, Seoul, will be made available to civilians."
"He then passed this information to eight acquaintances."
If a Korean could go back 50 years in a time machine,
what do you think they'd do first?
Buy land in Gangnam.
I believe anyone in their sound mind
would have done as I have.
Was I fired from my job
because of you?
I only wanted you to stay alive.
I wanted to like you.
When I saw shooting stars,
I held up a candle during boot camp
and wished on a star that you wouldn't be a bad person.
-But you always-- -I was born in Korea
in the 40s as a woman.
I never got educated, was married against my will,
and even ended up a divorcée.
If I wanted to complain about my life, I could've done so and more.
But I figured that's just how life was.
If I hadn't been "a bad person" just as your tiny head wished,
I would be dead already.
Anyway, this is the only thing I want to say to you.
You need to stop here.
Otherwise, my company will go down.
Do you understand?
You two should stay here for a while.
I'll tell my security company to give you top-notch security.
I don't have many days to live. So at least let me sleep in peace.
In-kyung.
In-kyung!
Do you think so too?
That I should be the one to stop?
You know what those people did.
Your friend died like that.
I know, In-kyung.
I understand you better than anyone.
But I'm also your sister.
I worry about you more than anyone.
She has a point.
Let's tread a little carefully.
Let's stop for a while, see how things go and--
That's really weird.
The In-joo I know
isn't someone who treads carefully.
Yesterday evening, Park Jae-sang of the Civil Party,
a preliminary candidate for the mayor of Seoul,
disclosed that the foundation was found using his father's slush fund.
After this, many citizens lined up to donate to Park Jae-sang Foundation.
I could relate to it.
Back in my day, everyone lived like that.
That's why I want to give more.
You began to lead by over five percent
in preference, awareness, and approval ratings.
He'll make it.
The situation seems the most ideal.
The leader doesn't call for the masses. It's the masses who call for a leader.
Go to Singapore within the month. We'll need lots of cash.
Yes, sir.
I'm grateful for Ms. Oh In-kyung.
Thanks to her, he rose up dramatically.
He broke through in great timing, garnering favorable attention.
She's the best among our resources.
She has done so much for us thus far.
It's time for her to make her exit.
I've prepared a few scenarios.
She's an alcoholic, so it's easy to come up with a story.
Even if she slips and falls,
I just need to increase her blood alcohol level.
Okay.
Oh, right.
Ms. Oh In-kyung is a problem, but I'm concerned about Ms. Oh In-joo too.
Shouldn't we eliminate someone who is potentially dangerous?
What about Ms. Oh In-joo?
Two nights ago, she went to Jin Hwa-young's place
and showed suspicious behavior.
What did she do?
She suddenly brought out a fishbowl…
That's not what's important.
The biggest problem is that she's unpredictable.
Are you saying we should do away with her because of some fish?
Ms. Oh works for me.
I'll deal with her.
I'm in charge of her.
I work with her regarding Ms. Jin.
I'll make sure she doesn't cause trouble.
Okay, then.
You'll manage.
Then it's settled.
However, there were a few things the reporter missed.
His assets before he passed in 2013 didn't amount to 8 billion won.
They amounted to a total of 20 billion won.
PARK'S FATHER'S REAL ESTATE WORTH 20 BILLION WON

"Gimtan-ri…"
Go to 26 Gimtan-ri, Noma-myeon, Musim-gun, Gyeonggi-do.
Begin your coverage from there.
CHAIRWOMAN OH HYE-SEOK
The Chairwoman told me to shred the old files.
I'm good at simple tasks.
I just need to finish the ones from the safe.
Wait!
What is it, Director Oh?
Yes, okay.
You're lying about being in a fling with her.
I'm not an idiot who'd believe that.
Is Ms. Won involved?
Are the three of you creating a slush fund?
You are.
I knew things were suspicious with Jin Hwa-young too.
Why do you think I'm lying?
It's ridiculous enough to picture you dating someone,
but if you were actually seeing someone,
it would be an heiress who has around 70 billion won to her name.
The only thing you care about is money.
You wouldn't date a poor divorcée.
You have such great insight, Ms. Go.
This is a warning.
Even if Ms. Won is involved, if this harms Mr. Park,
I won't condone this.
Tell Ms. Oh In-joo to watch out.
I didn't tell Mr. Park
about your recent mishap.
He may have really gotten rid of you.
One piece of advice.
If you do that again, I won't condone it either.
He shouldn't get into politics with some thug.
A polling organization
announced the current approval rating for Seoul mayoral candidates.
Park Jae-sang's ratings rose by 16 percent to 40.5 percent,
taking the lead by five percent against Assemblyman Han.
It's an unprecedented change.
You're right. After the recent issue with Candidate Park,
the party expected his ratings to drop.
But when they began to rise, the support for Candidate Park…
This is my father.
Hello, sir.
I came to show him the news.
That the son of a chauffeur he picked up
is about to become a mayoral candidate.
I see.
Ms. Oh, I need you to go to Singapore next week.
Sorry?
I wanted to be at the Orchid Festival this year.
SEOUL MAYORAL CANDIDATE APPROVAL RATINGS
I was right, wasn't I?
He'll really make it.
Can you go on my behalf?
Is this something Hwa-young used to do?
Before my father collapsed, all he gave me was
the orchids.
Why did he leave me only these?
He loved me the most in this world.
It seemed completely absurd.
I realized as I bought and sold orchids in Singapore every year
that this held infinite possibilities.
People usually evade taxes, embezzle, and launder money through artworks.
But artworks draw attention.
You must register the piece and report the transaction.
But the shape and size of orchids change,
and personal trades are concealed.
I always made my bids anonymously over the phone.
Hwa-young went to the auction for me.
The International Orchid Society in Singapore
shared similar interests with us.
We raised the highest bid by several times over many years.
Now, the top one percent of the world's wealthiest people
fly over to Singapore to invest in orchids.
Hwa-young and I started it.
That's how Hwa-young became used to large amounts of money.
She was intoxicated with the process. She must have felt omnipotent.
Money tends to do that to people.
I still don't get it.
Hwa-young betrayed you like that,
so why would you entrust me with this?
Hwa-young and you are very different.
Hwa-young didn't have anyone, but you have your sisters.
If you have someone you love, you can't do anything that reckless.
Hwa-young changed after her mother passed away.
What was your childhood dream?
Marrying a rich man.
One of your sisters is a reporter,
and the other wants to be a painter.
But you wanted to become rich through someone else's money?
I wasn't good at anything.
I was just popular with men.
Take this.
This is…
An orchid called Blue Ghost.
Open the lid and keep it by your bed when you go to sleep.
It'll bloom…
tonight.
This orchid has power.
If you smell it all night,
you'll be able to see what you really want.
Let's talk again once we can both be honest.
By the way, I don't believe what you said.
If you could,
I'm sure you'd also want to make it on your own.
If that's the case, you'll have to go to Singapore.
What can I gain if I go there?
Ten percent of what you make there.
And some extra.
It doesn't sound like enough to make me rich.
My husband will become the president after his term as the mayor of Seoul.
Do you think it was my dream to marry a powerful man?
Is that why I do volunteer work making kimchi and delivering briquettes?
I have a plan of my own.
There's an amazing privilege
that comes with the mayorship of Seoul.
If you do a good job in Singapore,
I'll put this orchid
on the Father Tree.
"The Father Tree"?
This orchid cannot live long away from the Father Tree.
That's the only place where it can get
the microorganisms and mold it needs to survive.
That means
we'll be looking after the orchid of your dreams.
And that you're with us, Ms. Oh.
"Us"?
The International Orchid Society.
Or simply,
"Jeongran Society,"
as we like to call ourselves.
DIRECTOR OH IN-KYUNG
MARCH 5TH, 1973, JEONGRAN SOCIETY
"Jeongran Society."
Hyo-rin.
Yes?
In my opinion,
something will definitely happen in the future.
Something will surely happen.
That's why we must be ready.
What do you think will happen?
Close your eyes and take a breath.
A deep breath.
Can you smell the orchids?
Yes.
Breathe even deeper.
Deep into your lungs.
And focus.
Where did you see it?
What?
The woman who hung herself in red heels.
-I don't know. -Hyo-rin, you need to focus.
The scent of the orchid reminded you of that scene.
It must be somewhere in your head.
You must find the way that leads to it.
You're the only one who can do it.
You have to remember why it popped up,
and what actually happened.
That way, we'll have power.
Mr. Choi.
Can we meet for a second?
I'm tired.
It won't take long.
I got off work and came home.
Let's talk tomorrow.
Ms. Oh.
Did you follow me?
Did Hyo-rin's mother tell you to go to Singapore?
What did you tell her?
I said I'll think about it.
Give me that.
Goodness. Why?
It's mine. Why should I give it to you?
Do you know something about the orchid?
Holding onto this can be dangerous.
I won't do everything
as you say, Mr. Choi.
Even if it's just for a night, I still want to think about it.
I want to know what I really want.

Yes?
I have something to tell you.
Sang-hyeok, we'll have two glasses of egg liqueur.
Go ahead.
You said
we choose to be rich.
But Great-Aunt,
how did you choose to be rich
as you watched people die?
What's going on?

my great-aunt.
How are these people connected?
There's a photo of them together.
There's a date. I think it's when they bought this land.
MARCH 5TH, 1973, JEONGRAN SOCIETY
No.
Park Jae-sang is too dangerous.
But you said so yourself.
I have to put myself at risk to make big money.
How can I become rich without this much risk?
Seventy billion won is too big.
In order to handle that, you must abandon the life you've lived
and become a completely different person.
-Can you do that? -Why not?
It's not like I have anything in my life.
I can lose it any day.
There's nothing more frightening
than being born poor and staying poor until the end.
Then what's the problem?
I…
saw everything.
I saw Hwa-young's death
and Park Jae-sang visiting her.
After witnessing all that,
I can't live with seeing that man
become the mayor of Seoul and the president.
You said it yourself.
It's a matter of choice.
You can't help it if you want the 70 billion.
But is that really the case?
Can't we just take down those people all at once?
What do you mean?
You know something, don't you?
Is it about Park Jae-sang's father?
That man wouldn't have let you come to his house
just to share his childhood memories.
There are other secrets, right?

tend to die earlier than the average life expectancy.
Who is still alive then?
General Won Gi-seon.
Principal Jang Sa-pyeong.
And Choi Hee-jae, someone who went missing long ago.
Lastly…
your great-aunt.
ALIVE
OH HYE-SEOK
Even if I do know something, it's all ancient history.
You can't bring them down with that. It's not like there's solid evidence.
I have a ledger.
It contains every single item of the slush fund for the last 25 years.
A ledger marks the beginning and the end of everything.
If we use the incidents you know with the things I know,
we can cause a nuclear explosion.
This could become the biggest business of your life.
Let's get rid of them quickly, at once, and for good,
and keep all their money.
What is it that you know?
It's easy to figure out how these people died.
Their names are all over the news.
Three people are involved with the savings bank.
Private school corruption, land speculation,
demolition service, correctional facilities…
This is a digest of modern Korean history through the 70s and 80s.
What on earth is this Jeongran Society?
It must have something to do with orchids.
MARCH 5TH, 1973, JEONGRAN SOCIETY
A group of people who study the spirit of orchids?
It's that orchid.
The Ghost of Vietnam.
I found an orchid in Hwa-young's room.
It was also at the scene of Director Shin Hyeon-min's accident,
as well as the incidents In-kyung was investigating.
And this was painted by Park Jae-sang's daughter.
At first,
I thought she painted Hwa-young's death.
It's a mirror image of it.
What's odd is that
she never knew Hwa-young and never saw this scene.
But…
Do you see that?
It's the orchid.
All of the deaths are connected by this orchid.
Great-Aunt.
Do you know anything about this orchid?
The group of people…
The group of people who received this orchid
is called "Jeongran Society."
Jeongran…
You must be sleepy.
Let's call it a day. Why don't we talk tomorrow?
No, Great-Aunt.
I'm just a bit tired.
Well, I'm exhausted.
You know what?
You and I have a lot in common.
We were both born into poor families.
We both didn't study well.
We both got divorced.
You were born poor…
and will die poor.
If you don't,
someone else will die.
I remembered.
I can see stairs.
Stairs that lead up.
Are you going up the stairs?
Where do they lead to?
They…
lead me to the sky.
I found it.
This is the place.
Are you sure this is it?
Yes. I used to come up here alone when I was a kid.
When I got bored, sad, and when it rained.
I often fell asleep playing up there.
Girls!
What are you doing in the dark?
"In-kyung."
Great-Aunt, I'm here.
WONRYEONG SCHOOL 26 NOMA-GIL
The Chairwoman's death has nothing to do with that orchid.
Be upset with me for once.
Don't you see that I'm upset with you, Mr. Choi?
From now on, your life will be in danger.
"The room that I locked myself up in a long time ago."
She said I could join their group if I received the orchid.
Come to think of it, there's no door.
Why did you put a tail on me?
Are you unable to trust me?
I have 70 billion won in Singapore.
We should go to Singapore with In-hye.
If you do that, you'll end up dead too.
Get rid of Ms. Oh In-joo.
