----
Why did you...
come by my house?
Why were you... looking into my truck?
I saw your truck by chance while out researching a story
and I was just glad to see...
Don't ever call me brother again, and don't even come near me either!
Because all reporters...
frighten... and disgust me.
Weren't you on your way to the police station?
I came back because I needed to ask you something.
What is it?
If...
If by chance...
you had a family member that you've been estranged from for a long time...
and you ran into that family member again...
and if that family member isn't whom you thought he'd be...
What would you do then?
What do you mean, not whom you thought he'd be?
What do you mean by that?
For example...
what if he had killed someone?
When you say that he killed someone...
are you absolutely sure of that?
No, what if it's just a feeling that you have?
Just a feeling that you, but no one else has?
If it were me...
then there would only be one answer.
I'd investigate it.
I wouldn't go by my gut feelings, but instead, look for definitive evidence.
Whether it be by asking that family member, or whatever else it would take...
I'd find out the truth.
I'd worry about the rest after I found out the truth first.
Is there an accident?
- Senior Joo Ho! - I'm getting it.
You're in danger!
- No! - No!
Pull him out.
- Get out. - Grab on!
A major head on collision. I repeat, a head on collision.
Ha Myung... Ha Myung, are you okay?
Are you hurt anywhere?
Yes... I'm fine.
That's a relief to hear, Ha Myung.
I'm so glad that you're okay.
Mister!
Wake up, Mister!
Mister!
We've... got the exclusive on this, don't we?
Yeah... I think so.
That man is...
[Episode Nine- The Pied Piper]
Did you get it all on film? How much in detail?
Are you serious?
Did you interview the boy?
You're saying that we've got the only exclusive of this?
Cap Kim, it's me. In Ha and Bum Jo got a great exclusive.
Tell Choi In Ha to follow the delivery man, and get the coverage on him.
Tell her to get an interview, if she can!
Tell Seo Bum Jo to report the news, and you're sure that we've got it exclusive?
Is the news van out on the road right now?
Tell them to get to the scene immediately and start the coverage on the story!
Why is Bum Jo reporting the story, and not me?
Yes.
Yes, I understand.
Yes.
- Let's make this our top story. - No, that's absurd.
It's too small of a story to make it our top story.
No one died from the crash, and there was only one injured party.
It all depends on how you spin the story.
A water delivery man put his life on the line to save the life of a little boy.
This story is more fitting for our top slot than the ski lodges
being a popular weekend getaway spot.
The viewers will eat this up, and it paints a nice story.
We've also got the exclusive on this.
Don't you think that this is plenty to make a news story out of?
Are they really making this the top news story?
- It's too small to be the top story. - We've worked with less.
We've got the script ready, so send it out to Seo Bum Jo.
Seo Bum Jo, the script has been uploaded, so start reporting that.
Where have you been?
You saw that, right?
If I actually had feelings for you
I wouldn't have been able to yawn like that in front of you.
Which means, you are not deemed as a man in my eyes whatsoever.
Yeah, I bet.
- What's that? - It's a case.
Let's go check it out.
- The truck flipped over... - What was the other car that was involved?
- The other car that was involved? - Yes.
The other involved vehicle drove itself into this one to protect the boy...
- What happened to the driver of this truck? - I don't know.
He was taken away in an ambulance, and he seemed to have been hurt pretty bad.
- Which hospital was he taken to? - We don't know.
Choi Dal Po! Where are you off to again?
[Bumper]
- How's his current condition? - His left arm has been stabilized for now.
But we won't know the extent of his injuries until we get to the hospital.
Where's Ha Myung? Is Ha Myung okay?
- Is he hurt anywhere? - No, he's fine.
He's fine, so you don't need to worry.
That's such a relief.
Who's Ha Myung?
Yes, he ran when he heard that his license was going to get revoked.
Yes, no reported deaths, and one man was injured.
Any CCTVs in the area, or black box footage?
If we don't have that, then we've got nothing.
What does the injured man do for a living?
The standards we have for our top news...
Water deliveryman?
He saved a middle school student?
We've temporarily foregone our usual genre of top news story
to bring you something new and different.
Our top news for the evening is about self-sacrifice and emotions.
A young man put his own life on the line to save the life of a middle school student.
What's this?
Our MSC news crew captured a vivid image of that very emotional and touching moment.
Reporter Seo Bum Jo will now bring you the exclusive on this story.
Seo Bum Jo?
Which Seo Bum Jo?
My son, Seo Bum Jo?
A cargo truck races down the road in an attempt to flee from the police.
The truck crosses the median to swerve into the nearby intersection.
The alcohol breathalyzer showed...
My son, Bum Jo!
Another truck from the opposing lane swerves in to save the life of the boy
and crashes itself into the oncoming truck.
The boy that was sure to have lost his life is saved and escapes without any injuries.
The driver who walked out of the truck that saved the boy's life
walks over to check on the boy, then collapses from his injuries on the spot.
- That's a killer shot! - And they even captured the emotion!
He rushed over to me as soon as he got out of the truck to ask if I was okay.
- How did they get that? - They were out to shoot the icy roads.
They just hit the jackpot by pure chance.
I hear when you've got luck on your side, you'll strike rich no matter what.
I guess they've really hit the jackpot.
Have you had any recent car accident victims come in?
His name is Ki Jae Myung, a male in his thirties.
No, we haven't had any car accident victims come in.
I see, thank you.
All the pedestrians are walking with caution in fear of a slip and fall.
The drunk driver had an alcohol level of 0.107 at the time of the crash.
This brave citizen, who sacrificed his own safety to save the life of a young student
is Mr. Ki, a 30 year-old male.
Mr. Ki was rushed off to the hospital...
Mr. Ki, a 30 year-old male?
It is reported that his life is not in danger.
Can't be.
He is a hero who put his own life on the line to save the life of a child in danger.
Jae Myung.
This has been Seo Bum Jo, from MSC News.
Yes, I understand. Senior Joo Ho just got here.
Yes, I'll call in with a report as soon as the interview is over.
- Is the driver okay? - Yes.
He's sustained a fracture on his left arm, and he's getting treated for it right now.
- He's fine otherwise. - That's great.
Have you interviewed him yet?
Mr. Ki Jae Myung is stable now, so we'll have to ask him to give us one.
Ki Jae Myung? The driver's name is Ki Jae Myung?
Yes, it's a very unique name.
Excuse me, is Mr. Ki Jae Myung still being treated for his injuries?
Mr. Ki Jae Myung just checked himself out of the hospital.
What? Are you serious?
Let's go.
Mr. Ki Jae Myung, wait!
Yes, how can I help you?
I'm MSC News' Reporter Choi In Ha, who was at the scene earlier.
May I please ask you for an interview?
By any chance... were you on the MSC News' advertisement sign?
Yes, that's correct.
You have a good eye. They're mother and daughter.
Reporter Choi In Ha.
I would really love it if you could give me an interview.
But if it's too much for you right now, we can do it later on.
Let's do it right now.
Thank you.
- Senior Joo Ho, let's get started. - Yeah, okay.
Is there a car accident victim by the name of Ki Jae Myung here?
Mr. Ki Jae Myung? Yes, he was here.
He just finished his examinations.
How is he? Is he badly injured?
Other than a fractured arm, he's fine.
His CT and other examinations didn't show any other injuries.
That's a relief.
- Has he been discharged? - I saw he's doing an interview right now.
An interview?
Then Ha Myung is the name of your deceased little brother?
Yes.
That boy must've reminded me of my little brother for a moment.
He's about the same age as my little brother was when he died.
You must hate those people that slandered your father.
As a reporter myself... I feel so ashamed.
The reporters that framed and destroyed my family back then...
are still working as reporters in the industry.
It must be torture for you whenever you watch the news.
Do you remember who those reporters were?
I remember faint bits and pieces of them.
But...
One reporter was so evil and venomous, that I remember every detail of her.
Her face...
her name...
and even her voice.
Can you tell me who that was?
- That reporter is... - Choi In Ha!
Dal Po!
Please keep this interview confidential with MSC News only.
Please don't give an interview to any other reporters, okay?
Sure, I can do that.
Come on.
Sorry to break it to you, but it's over.
Senior Joo Ho, let's wrap it up.
You can't tell this person anything. I'll be in touch again soon.
- I said, come with me! - Dal Po...
I'm sorry, but this is an urgent matter.
Dal Po.
Choi Dal Po!
Hey, what's wrong are you? Are you trying to ruin my exclusive?
Don't get in touch with that man.
That man is extremely dangerous. He absolutely detests reporters.
I know, he told me the story, and he has every reason to hate them.
Do you remember the story
of the fireman who's skeletal remains were found during our interview at YGN?
He says he's the son of that fireman.
It's more than understandable that he'd hate reporters.
- I'd hate them, too. - That's why he's dangerous. You are...
I mean, you don't know what he'd do to reporters, so that's why...
That man put his own life on the line to save the life of another.
A man like that would never harm anyone.
I know. I know that man.
He's dangerous.
So have someone else do his interviews, and you stay out of it.
Why are you telling me to stay out of it? Am I the only one in danger?
Don't tell me to just stay out of it, and explain it to me so that I can understand.
Can't I... just be that reason?
Because it's me telling you... because it's my word...
Because you know that I care for you more than anyone else
can't you just trust me on this one?
- Dal Po. - Please.
Please don't get involved with that man.
Don't ask me for reasons why. Just please...
Please just do this for me, okay?
You...
know something that I don't, don't you?
Yeah.
You're not going to tell me what that is even if I were to ask, are you?
I can't.
It's for my own sake, isn't it?
Yeah.
Okay.
I'll do as you ask.
I have so many questions to ask right now, but I won't.
Even though I can't do anything about the interview I just had from airing
I won't do any more of it.
Because I trust you more than I trust him.
- You're being serious, right? - I'm serious.
See? I'm not hiccuping.
You know that as a Pinocchio, I can only make promises that I can keep.
So you can trust me.
I promise not to do anything that'll cause you to worry.
Thank you.
Um... you did a really great thing today.
Thank you for giving us the interview.
Sure, Reporter, Sir.
It's been a long time.
Yes, we met in front of the news station recently, didn't we?
I wasn't sure at first, but... it is you.
We met long before last week.
I believe you were behind the camera of an interview I did 13 years ago.
Don't you remember?
Reporter... Lee Joo Ho?
I'm not sure.
- I don't really seem to recall... - I remember very clearly.
You were with Reporter Sung Cha Ok.
Choi In Ha, was her name?
The woman that just interviewed me...
is the daughter, isn't it?
How fascinating.
To have met Reporter Sung's daughter through an accident like this.
I find it very interesting...
and grateful.
But what you're doing right now... it's not to steal my exclusive, is it?
- Hey! - If that's the case...
No, it's not like that.
That's all I needed to know.
Let's go back inside. Senior Joo Ho must be waiting.
Okay.
One more thing, Dal Po.
Once we go back home after the training period is over...
my dad is going to find out about us.
I know.
It's possible that my dad may act mean toward you.
- I know. - Even if he does, don't give up on us.
I'll talk to my dad...
I'd never do that.
Seo Bum Jo!
I saw you reporting on TV. You were good.
- I'm sorry, it should've been you. - Yes, you should be sorry.
I was only able to stop from cursing out loud because it was you doing it.
Congratulations!
Okay.
You did a real great job today, Seo Bum Jo. Let's go!
I hear that you two were responsible for getting that exclusive tonight?
- Yes. - Yes.
Good job.
What did you say?
- What are you doing? - What did you just say?
I said, good job.
- I can't hear you. Say it louder. - I said, good job. Satisfied?
Yes, I'm satisfied.
- How about removing that foot now? - Sure!
- Those shoes... are they the right fit? - Excuse me?
Wait, Manager Sung!
- Did you hear that? - Yeah.
- Did Manager Sung buy you those shoes? - Must be.
I thought my dad bought them for me, but it was my mom?
Seriously?
I had no idea! I can't believe it!
No wonder! My dad would never know to buy these!
- I can't believe it! - Are you that happy?
Of course, I'm happy! High-five!
Hey, you have to lift up your right hand!
Is that how it works?
Manager Sung, your idea was right on.
Now that the ratings have been flipped, let's keep up the momentum and go even bigger!
I have scheduled a private interview with the water deliveryman.
- How about for our number three slot? - Sounds great.
Manager Moo, create a story around the concept of 'Heroes Amongst Us' by tomorrow
and Manager Gook, find out if there are any other stories that are similar to this one.
We can't say that they've got the exclusive on the truck accident.
They just got lucky with the story, so don't beat yourselves up over it too much.
But we still need to go after it.
I hear that MSC even has a private interview with the water deliveryman scheduled
so this is no time for us to blame it on luck when the ratings show otherwise.
You're right... this is no time for us to be blaming it on luck.
Not when the ratings have been flipped around.
Then... shall we go after the investigation?
No, don't do it.
Come on, Director Lee!
North Korea's senior officials are meeting with the Vice President of the U.S. right now
and we need to do an in-depth coverage of that meeting.
That news is going to lose its heat within the next couple of days, tops.
So, stop worrying about it, and let's just do what we should, okay?
But the news of my brother didn't die within the next couple of days...
and it didn't lose any heat either.
If anything else, it flamed even hotter.
When asked why he risked his own life to save the life of the boy
he shared an unexpected and tragic story with us.
Reporter Lee Il Joo brings you an exclusive on the story now.
Mr. Ki Jae Myung, who risked his own life to save the life of a student
loses his consciousness after calling out an unknown name at the scene of the accident.
Mister!
Further investigation showed that the name, Ha Myung
was the name of Mr. Ki's deceased little brother.
Yes, my little brother died right around that same age.
I must've rescued that boy without even realizing it because he reminded me of him.
They're just running with the viewers' sympathy and blowing up this story.
Must we just sit back and take this? What do we have to combat this?
Have you guys been able to find anything on Ki Jae Myung?
Let's not get swept up in it.
We don't really even know anything about this supposed hero
so there's no reason for us to get swept up in the storm, too.
That's why I'm asking you to go out and find out more about the guy. Got it?
Yes, Sir.
Choi Dal Po.
Forget about everything else, and just focus on digging up what you can on Ki Jae Myung.
- Report everything you learn directly to me. - Yes, Sir.
Cap Hwang.
Do you want me to do some digging on Ki Jae Myung, too?
- Stay out of it. - Yes, Sir.
At the time, my father was slandered to have driven 9 of his fellow firemen to their deaths
and to have fled like a coward to escape facing the consequences.
But my father did not flee to escape.
Even though he lost his life in the fire, his body was never found.
And recently...
Thus, my brother became a hero.
As a newfound hero, he notified the world of the injustice done to our father.
My father's skeletal remains were discovered.
And he finally received an apology that he so desperately longed to hear 13 years ago.
It is said that a pen can wield a far deadlier power than a sword.
It means that wielding a pen can inflict a far greater wound than a knife can.
In a show of assuming the responsibility of the pain inflicted on Mr. Ki Jae Myung
MSC News would like to extend our most sincerest apology.
We will also make you a promise.
Just like how we, MSC News, was able to bring you
the exclusive on the story behind Mr. Ki Jae Myung's story of injustice
MSC News promises to continue to strive to report only the truth
and remain diligent in our efforts to bring only the truth...
The same news that painted my father as an evil being thirteen years ago
was now painting my brother as a hero.
I hear that Ki Jae Myung was arrested by police for violence during high school.
That's not uncommon at that age.
Ki Jae Myung is the lifeline to our viewers right now
so let's pass on things like that, and stay with the feel good stories.
The news kept the darker moments of my brother's life hidden away from the world...
Mr. Ki is said to have come by here every night on his way home
to buy whatever kimbap is left from this struggling grandmother.
He'd buy all the leftover kimbap to help her make ends meet in this cold weather...
Jae Myung's hidden good deeds were made known to the world.
Mr. Ki took the reward of 500,000 Won that he received from Han River Police Station
and used it to buy Christmas gifts for the children at a local children's shelter.
Even his smallest good deeds were praised by people the world
and just like the Pied Piper from the children's fairytale...
everything he did and said left the world under his trance.
It's too crowded. Let's take the next one.
We may be able to fit.
- Hello. - Yeah.
The last one to get on needs to get off.
Senior Joo Ho, stop pushing me. I wasn't the last one to get on.
Don't step on my shoe!
Hey, I'll just take the next one.
Let's go!
What do you think you're doing!
I needed to talk to you about something.
First...
Here, this is my gift to you.
Do you remember leaving your cellphone at our house thirteen years ago?
I took over that old cellphone number, and kept it live ever since.
Please take a look at all the texts that were received on that cellphone.
Why should I do such a thing?
I've been using your old phone number for the past 13 years.
What?
I've been stealing your text messages for the past 13 years.
I'm sorry.
Grandfather is sick, so dad and I are moving to the island to live with him.
They don't even have a TV here, so I don't get any chances to see you.
Mom, there are times when I prefer the quiet of the island over the noise of Seoul.
I don't even miss you. Have a good day!
I bought a carnation for you, but I can't even give it to you.
Mom, do you remember how you always ate all my egg yolks for me?
I was worried about what I was going to do without you anymore
but Uncle Dal Po told me that he only likes to eat the yolks.
Isn't that crazy?
You changed your number since losing your phone, right?
- But In Ha didn't know that. - It's not the right number.
So she kept sending you all those texts.
It really isn't the right number.
Dal Po was right.
At first, I thought she'd quit at some point when she didn't get any responses
but she just kept sending them.
For thirteen whole years.
Like a hopeful fool.
Then... after some time of reading the texts, I started developing an interest in her.
That's why I'm here right now.
So... what is it that you want to say?
You're saying that like a fool, you became a reporter because of a girl?
Yes.
You should sit down one day, and read through them all.
The messages are so raw and honest... I bet you'll fall right in love with her.
I can guarantee it right now. Once you read through all those texts...
Just like I did...
you're going to become a fool for her yourself.
And just like it happened to me...
you're going to want to become a good person to Choi In Ha.
MSC has totally taken over the reins.
Once they took over the ratings, they're firmly staying put.
Ki Jae Myung is popular these days.
The exclusive? They're really cashing in on that story.
I think they're taking it too far.
Do you think that it's taking it too far?
I was going to share the good wealth out of the goodness of my heart
but I guess not.
Gong Joo, why are you twisting the words of my joke like that?
Are you really going to do it? Here.
If you'll put MSC on the top of the broadcasting list
then I'll think about it.
First come first served!
Ki Jae Myung adamantly refused to give us an interview
so why is he agreeing to do it with only you guys?
Did you guys... give him some cash?
How can you even suggest such a thing? He said it was because of MSC's integrity.
Integrity.
[Choi Dal Po]
Hello?
Hang on.
What's that all about?
- Why is he taking the call in private? - Is it another exclusive?
Hey, share the wealth!
Okay, talk.
I'm going to visit my brother today.
Will you be okay to go alone?
Yes.
That man is...
Now that we're working the desk, we were even offered to go to the sauna.
It's nice.
I'm sure it was only because we were filthy. He said we stunk.
I can't tell.
Just think about it. Why do you think Ki Jae Myung took this?
It means that he's planning on coming to the lecture.
- What's the problem with that? - You know what the problem is.
You know what you did to those people 13 years ago.
I'm positive that he'll show up to cause trouble of some sorts.
Really?
Then make sure to bring your camera, okay?
That should make for some good news.
Not just cause trouble, but he may even attack you!
I still went on my business trip to Japan during the earthquake in Fukushima
and I've done all sorts of interviews from organized gangs and crimes.
If it's an attack, and not just trouble, then I'd actually welcome it.
The bigger the scale of the news, the better, isn't it?
Wait.
My mom is coming this way.
You're right.
- Mom... - Just eat.
I came because I wanted to eat in peace.
Yes, Ma'am.
Choi Dal Po.
Cap Hwang wanted me to get this to you.
He told you what this is for?
Yes, thank you.
But... what do you need that for?
[Ki Ho Sang]
[Please forgive us for our sins. You are a true hero.]
[We love you, Fireman Ki Ho Sang. Please rest in peace.]
[We're sorry, and we love you. Our hero- We love you.]
What are you doing here?
I was told that you're here every day, and I came by to see you.
I heard that your father passed away wrongfully at the fault of the reporters.
Yes, he passed away wrongfully... because of reporters like yourself.
I've made it very clear that I will only give interviews to MSC News.
Why MSC News?
I was told that MSC News was the worst
when it came to painting Fireman Ki Ho Sang in an evil light 13 years ago.
I have no specific reasons for it.
Because current reporters at MSC News don't distort my truth like you do.
By any chance...
do you know who Moon Duk Soo is?
No.
He's the factory worker that framed Fireman Ki Ho Sang at the factory explosion incident.
He recently disappeared after having killed two of his friends.
Is that right?
It must be retribution for all those three.
I'm sure that he was someone's father and husband.
I hope that he'll stop making his family suffer and just turn himself in.
Why...
are you speaking in the past tense?
You just said, he was someone's father and husband.
Why are you speaking of a missing person as if he no longer exists?
As if he's already dead.
That's because...
he's not playing the role of a father or a husband right now.
And I've also only said Moon Duk Soo framed Mr. Ki Ho Sang.
I didn't mention anything about the other two dead people.
So why did you use the term, 'retribution'?
Doesn't that mean you already knew that the other two also framed Mr. Ki Ho Sang?
Is what you're seeking right now...
an apology from the world for what happened?
Or is it revenge that you're seeking?
If I had to choose one or the other...
then it must be revenge.
Is it an apology or revenge that you're seeking?
If I had to choose one or the other...
then it must be revenge.
Hey, Choi Dal Po.
Phone call from Cap Hwang. I'll transfer it to you.
Yes, Sir.
If it's magic that can fool the entire world
then can it be turned into a miracle?
If it's a lie that can fool the entire world...
then can it be turned into the truth?
In that case...
Yes, this is Choi Dal Po, of Han River Reports.
- Why aren't you answering your cellphone? - Sorry, but it broke.
Really?
How did the meeting with your brother go? Did you find out anything?
The whole world believes my brother to be a hero...
If only I can just keep my silence
then wouldn't my brother be able to live his life as a real life hero?
No, I haven't been able to find anything yet.
I'm sorry.
A truth trapped in a wall of lies
may look still and peaceful like the calm waters.
But without anyone even being aware of it
the truth found the tiniest crack in the wall and started leaking out toward the world.
Ki Jae Myung.
Ki Jae Myung?
I know I've heard that name somewhere before.
- Get this to Choi Dal Po. - Yes, Sir.
What's this? Ki Jae Myung?
That's right. That was the name on the piece of paper Cap Hwang gave to Choi Dal Po.
How is Choi Dal Po related to Ki Jae Myung?
The truth slowly starts to leak out, and forces that tiny crack even wider.
What are you doing? Why did you stop spreading out the paper?
I just feel like I've seen this man somewhere before.
What's he doing up there?
Who is that guy?
I remember now. It's the guy Choi Dal Po met with.
Dal Po and Ki Jae Myung?
Factory explosion fire?
What am I missing?
Then in one moment, the wall comes crumbling down...
Hey, Choi In Ha!
- Come here for a minute. - Excuse me?
Yes, Sir.
and flows heavily out into the world.
What's this about?
I have a favor to ask of you.
- What is it? - First, there's something you need to see.
- Who is this person? - Ki Jae Myung from 13 years ago.
He once gave us an interview to declare his father's innocence.
Seriously?
Wouldn't airing this right now be deemed newsworthy?
Just watch it first.
Don't look at the camera, and just look at me while you talk.
- Are you ready? - Yes.
Mom... I mean, Manager Sung interviewed him?
Yeah.
- What's the trophy that you're holding? - This is...
This is the trophy for 'Fireman of Excellence and Honor' that my father won last year.
During the 21 years and two months that my father worked as a public fireman
he has put out 730 fires, and saved the lives and homes of over 1,400 people.
He received this award in recognition of that.
Why do you think a father like that is still on the run instead of turning himself in?
My father...
is innocent.
What do you mean by that?
A witness with the Pinocchio syndrome even stated that he saw your father.
I believe in my father more than I do in a Pinocchio!
- That Pinocchio must've been mistaken! - Wait.
- We're not here to listen to this... - I wish that my father was alive!
What son is this world would wish for their father to be dead?
I don't care if people point and call him a coward
and I don't care if I never see him again, but I just want him to still be alive!
But the fact is, that's not the type of a man he is.
He's not the type of man to leave anyone behind to run away.
He's especially not the sort of man who'd abandon his family to hide away somewhere!
As a son...
I'd rather die than to be so convinced of his own father's death...
But because I am his son, I know the truth.
My father...
was innocent.
That's enough. We'll end it here.
Why did you show this to me?
The day we filmed this...
there was an incident.
What sort of an incident?
What do you think? Was the interview newsworthy?
Yeah, we can just use the part of him yelling about only wanting his father to be alive.
Wait, Cha Ok.
I think that's going too far. That wasn't the point of the interview.
That was the point of it to me.
The son is just as shameless as his father is.
Cha Ok.
You're not even a reporter. You're a monster!
Let go of her!
We need some help over here!
Cha Ok, you should've given him a break. It was a mistake stemming from anger.
Mistake?
He was going to hit me with that trophy.
That was a clear case of attempted murder.
He just hit the wall, then stopped himself.
Let's just agree to settle.
If you just send him away like that
he won't even be able to go home
and he'll have to spend the night in a cold holding cell.
Good.
That's what I want.
After that incident, Ki Jae Myung wasn't able to go home that night...
and later that night...
Ki Jae Myung's mother and his little brother jumped off a cliff and committed dual suicide.
Ki Jae Myung believes that had he gone home that night
he would've been able to stop that tragedy from happening.
And because of all that...
he has a huge grudge against Manager Sung.
Is my mom... aware of all this?
Yeah.
Cruel bastards. You killed them.
You guys killed my little brother and my mother!
It's your fault that they're both dead.
Get a shot of the shoe with the water in the background.
This is your fault!
This never would've happened if I had been home with my mother last night!
No, had you been with her last night, then you would've died with her.
I'm going to kill you. I'm going to kill you!
That guy, Ki Jae Myung... there's just something about that guy.
The way he took that flier about Manager Sung's upcoming lecture...
and I don't know if I'm reaching with this, but he just seems dangerous to me.
No matter how I try to warn her, she just won't listen.
She says she's still just going to do it.
She says she'd actually prefer that he attacks her out of his grudge
and that she welcomes the newsworthy attack!
Can you try to talk her out of it? Who knows?
Maybe she'll listen to her daughter's request.
Are you even listening to me right now?
Is my mom...
Is Manager Sung, that cruel of a person?
Choi In Ha.
How can she be like that? How?
I really... I really just can't understand it.
That shoe...
What is that shoe?
That shoe belonged to Ki Jae Myung's little brother.
The little brother who drowned in the sea with his mother.
- Ki Jae Myung's little brother? - That's right.
He told you that during the interview at the hospital.
Ki... Ha Myung?
That's his little brother's shoe.
We'll be back.
No...
No, it can't be.
Hey! Choi In Ha!
Hey!
Hey... Choi In Ha!
Hey!
It was either last September or October, the day that strong storm came through.
I took the boat out to sea by myself to fix whatever damage I could from the storm
and that's when I saw something clinging to the pillar way out in the water.
In Ha.
What are you doing home at this hour?
In Ha, I finally bought a television so that I can see you and Dal Po on the news.
Come, and take a look at this. The colors and everything are so clear!
- Grandfather. - Yeah?
This shoe... what is this shoe?
Hey, you can't throw that out!
That's the shoe that saved your uncle's life when it got caught in the pillar.
That shoe is like a talisman.
But...
is something going on with you two today?
I thought you guys couldn't come home during your training period or something
but how did both of you manage to come home today?
- Uncle came by the house? - Yeah.
Come here.
I think something's going on with Dal Po.
I don't know what's happened, but he just walked around the house all day
then he just went up to the rooftop.
In Ha. Are you leaving again right now?
Let me ask you something.
Why do you hate me?
- Am I your sworn enemy or something? - Of course you're my sworn enemy.
I'm not going to be disappointed.
No matter how badly you and my dad slander my mom, I won't believe any of it.
It's not slander, it's the truth.
Reporters should be careful, then careful some more!
Not knowing that is their wrongdoing!
That rashness has destroyed a family.
And they must take responsibility for it.
I believe... that you shouldn't be a reporter.
I really mean that.
Tell me, was that all just a lie?
Hey!
You crazy bastard!
Dal Po...
Dal Po.
Please don't get involved with him.
Don't ask me for reasons why. Just please.
Please don't, okay?
In Ha.
Are you by any chance...
Ki Ha Myung?
Are you?
Is your real name...
Ki Ha Myung?
How...
did you...
The truth that I've wanted to keep hidden...
was found out by the one person who never should've known.

- Did you return the recorder? - Yes, I've returned it.
So, you've made your decision?
I'll dig around Ki Jae Myung.
Tell me who your real family is, then I'll consider it.
- He makes In Ha laugh and cry. - My In Ha?
You're telling me that you didn't know?
- I think I may be gone for a while. - To where?
- Somewhere far aware. - Ki Jae Myung's wrath is justified.
Why did you do it? Even I was able to endure it.
Because you were holding back.
Are you okay?
