(Episode 25)
(Office)
Yes, this is Byun Ho.
The boss asked for that?
I'm with a client at the moment.
The document is on my desk,
so could you deliver it to him?
I'll call him myself when I can.
Right. Sure thing.
The court schedule for tomorrow is the same, right?
Got it.
What do you mean?
He obviously approached her with an ulterior motive.
You must keep her away from him.
On what grounds are you saying that?
Something's not right. He's not your average guy.
- Where's your proof? - Proof?
I don't have any right now.
But I think he has a girlfriend and I'm looking into that.
She already set a date. The wedding is this weekend.
What?
The wedding is this weekend?
No way!
This is wrong, Gwang Sik!
You should stop her.
If she can't see straight,
it's up to you to guide her in the right direction.
Our family approved after looking into him.
Be honest with me. Why are you being this way?
Don't tell me you're obsessed with her now.
That's not it.
It's not.
I always felt guilty for what happened.
I want her to have a better life,
so how could I live with myself if the opposite happened?
I came to you thinking I could get through to you.
This marriage should be stopped.
She can't marry a man she just met!
I didn't want to say this,
but he's had a crush on her for a long time.
Before she even divorced you.
He liked her even while we were still married?
Her life is hers to manage...
and so is our family's.
You're only making us uncomfortable.
(A Spoonful of Moonlight)
Why was he here?
To be honest,
Brother-in-law came by a few times to discuss your matter.
He's not your brother-in-law anymore.
There's no better name for him.
"That jerk" would suffice.
Why was he here though?
That jerk wanted me to stop your marriage.
What? Why?
He's suspicious of the groom-to-be.
He's going to run a background check.
And he also suspects that there's a girlfriend.
A girlfriend? Chairman Hwang has only had eyes for me.
He's been following me like a puppy.
That's what I said,
but he was worried about this being a hasty decision.
Gwang Nam, maybe we should look into him.
Byun Ho's a lawyer and might have better eyes than us.
Whose side are you on?
Unbelievable.
A background check? Just who do you think you are?
Isn't this against the law?
Is a lawyer allowed to run random background checks?
Isn't it illegal to spread false rumors?
Whenever we work on a case,
we also do some digging in legitimate ways.
We can't go on trial without solid proof.
How proud you must be to know the law, Mr. Bae Byun Ho.
Don't get so worked up and just listen to me.
I think...
he's a little strange.
You can't marry a man whom you just met. You should take some time...
That's enough. What are you up to?
Why are you being like this to your ex-wife?
Are you envious?
Are you jealous that I'm marrying someone better than you?
What does that mean?
You don't want me, but you don't want anyone else to have me?
Gwang Nam.
I really want you to be happy.
I want you to lead a happy life for my sake.
I can't be sure yet, but I have a hunch about this as a lawyer.
I heard the wedding is this week.
Put it off for a while. I'll look into it.
A hunch, my foot.
You said lawyers only talk with evidence.
Bring me evidence then.
Where are you going?
- It's so early. - What?
Well... I have a trial to prepare for.
Hey!
"Hello. I'm Singer Han Ye Seul."
Why are you
Why are you coming out there?
I believed in love
Right, it's you
I'll be back when the sun shines brightly
Are you all right? Is it bad?
- I'm fine. Give me that. - Okay.
(Ilmiri Jjimdak)
Look at the time. Why is she not here yet?
I bet she'll come soon.
Isn't it that she's ill?
She has no husband and lives only with her daughter.
No one would know even if she died suddenly at home.
Her sudden death?
Who are you to butt in?
I'm his mother!
(Jjimdak Chef)
Hello?
You're alive.
I'm calling because you didn't show up at work.
I'm sorry, sweetie.
I was going to show up, but I had no stockings.
I feel cold to the bone when the AC is on.
Stockings?
Come on out.
What is this?
Oh, dear. I can't believe this.
My goodness.
What's all this?
I got skin, tan, and black. I got it all!
This is unbelievable.
Wash up and come to work.
(Investigator Park)
I just sent you some photos. I want you to look into them.
Impressive.
What?
You're getting off work soon, right? Do you want to eat or drink?
Whatever you want.
It's not like you're my chauffeur.
But I do feel hungry seeing you.
Good. I'll eat with you today then.
I want sushi. There's a new sushi place that costs a dollar per piece.
How much do you have?
I have 3.6 dollars.
I have 6.3 dollars.
So we have 9.9 dollars in total.
Don't you have more?
This is why I'm not dating you.
You're seeing me.
It's not that we're dating. I just hang out with you to kill time.
You're like a bus stop. You're not a terminal.
I'm still glad to be a stop as long as you pass it.
We can eat nine pieces. Let's just go and taste some.
Make sure to pick plates that cost a dollar.
Okay.
That's 1.5 dollars.
I see.
You've got no taste.
Let me pick.
Here. You can have eight plates.
I'll have only one.
You look so pathetic.
You can have five.
Four is enough for me.
I'm full. I had a late breakfast, so I'm okay. You eat them.
You eat them. You eat a whole pack of ramyeon.
- I said I'm okay. - Gosh.
Hey! How could you drop something that precious?
This is so embarrassing.
I've seen a lot in my life because of you.
I just forgot. This is why I don't want to be with you.
I'm back to reality now. Don't call me for a while.
Hey. Wait, Gwang Tae.
Gwang Tae, wait.
You didn't see me.
I can't take this for long.
I just can't lie to Chairman Heo.
And this isn't just about him.
As a friend, I don't want you to see Lee Gwang Tae.
I'll handle this on my own.
Just eat this.
Gwang Tae, wait!
This isn't so fresh.
Ye Seul, are you not feeling well?
No, I'm fine.
Okay. Let's start over.
Hey, let's take a break for ten minutes.
What? Are you going to kiss me?
Be honest with me. You went to work, didn't you?
No.
What's wrong?
Where did you get hurt? How bad is it?
I just bumped into something while I was moving stuff.
Why did you have to check? It only upsets you.
Why are you being so silly?
You want to be a singer.
You should forget everything else and focus on this.
If you get hurt, you can't become a singer.
I still need to make money.
This is about the money you borrowed, isn't it?
I'll pay it back.
Don't worry. I'll take care of it.
A singer makes money with his body. You can't hurt yourself.
Your body doesn't belong to you. You should treasure it.
You're driving me crazy.
You worried me to death when you got the appendectomy.
"What if something bad happens?"
"What if he doesn't survive?"
My gosh. Did you think that?
I won't do it again.
I will be careful.
Darn you.
(Mother)
Where are you?
In my office.
Blessing's mom was just there.
She said you're out.
Tell her not to do that.
I hate being looked into and followed.
She doesn't listen to me.
It's her birthday in two days.
Tell her to book a table wherever she likes.
I'm busy, Mother.
What is this?
New underwear for you.
Don't wear tattered old clothes.
You have three daughters.
People would badmouth us if they were to see.
Okay.
I can't let my daughters look bad.
How do you feel?
It's not my first time.
Dad. I will live as if I were born again.
Gwang Nam. I heard people put up with more when they remarry.
Don't do that.
Like Ttu Gi says, there's not much to life.
You are my precious firstborn.
You never showed it,
but I'm sure you had the burden of responsibility as the eldest.
As did I.
Do not forget that I'm always behind you.
If you feel that...
you aren't satisfied, come back.
I won't come back to you.
You're moving in with us.
I won't.
My rule is not to live with a married child.
It's my wish.
I want to get back at the elders and relatives...
who looked down on me for being a girl.
They did that because old people are backward.
I'm still strong and powerful.
Don't worry about me or your sisters and focus on your own life.
That will be enough.
Dad...
This will be the last time we sleep together.
The day Gwang Nam moved in,
we laid down like this and made a bet.
We did.
We said we'd see who would be first to get a big house for our family.
I knew that Gwang Nam would do it.
I didn't think it would work out so quickly.
It's not on me either.
It is on you.
Finding a good man is a skill too.
Gwang Nam, how do you feel? Do you feel excited?
It's my second marriage, so I feel a bit indifferent.
I just feel that I'll be safe now.
I was standing in a field in the wind and rain,
and now I feel like I'm huddling under the eaves.
I was shaking outside in the snow,
and now I feel like I'm in a warm room with a stove.
Gwang Nam, be happy.
Good luck.
Thank you.
I'll be a good big sister to you.
I won't cry again in my life.
Let's have some beer. I'll get some.
What's this?
You found out.
Did you buy it?
I bought one and so did your dad.
I think Gwang Nam and Gwang Tae did too.
We all ate our fill, but there's some left.
We really enjoyed it.
The reason it's not selling isn't because it doesn't taste good.
It's because... Yes, word hasn't gotten out.
The food is good. It really is.
Okay, okay, it's okay
Whatever the world says
Okay, okay, there's no giving up
Good luck to my life
On the stage that is called life
Everyone has their own role
On the stage of my life
I am the lead
It's me.
What?
Okay. I'll be right over. Bye.
Hwang Cheon Gil isn't the owner of the building that's going up.
It's a typical scam.
He's being very smart about it.
All the ownerships are fake,
and they're all in on it.
I asked a detective I know.
He's the ringleader and he's the henchman.
He's wanted and has seven fraud convictions.
This woman has a long record too.
She brings in the victims.
And this woman looks like a new recruit.
Did they get to someone you know?
The receiver cannot be reached.
Please call again.
(Shining under Starlight)
Who is it?
It's me. Open up.
Open the door. I have something to say.
Are you crazy?
I'll come in for a bit.
Get out right now. Before I call my family.
Does your wife know you're doing this?
Calm down and hear me out.
He's a fraud.
You're really persistent.
Look.
The building isn't his.
He signs fraudulent leases.
This woman is Hwang Cheon Gil's long-time partner.
It's his family's company.
The building might not be in his name.
Know who you're up against.
The penthouse is a lie. He borrowed an empty property for a few days.
Check for yourself.
Cancel the wedding first.
He has never conned me so far.
I have his money.
You must return it quickly. You could become an accomplice.
Is this your proof? Just a few photos?
A few printouts?
Pull yourself together.
Voice phishing victims act like you too.
They don't believe proof or anything the police tell them.
That's the human psyche. Trust me just this once.
How can I trust you? You're the one who conned me.
Not even the worst jerk would be as bad as you.
- Get out. - Gwang Nam.
I won't say it again.
I will tell your father.
The moment you do...
You know, don't you?
Do it if you want to see me dead.
(Dongseo Police Station)
This woman seems to be the newest addition to the team.
Where are you? We need to talk.
Is that why you urgently came running?
To see if it's a scam?
Be honest with me.
Here. Just see what the facts are.
There is 800,000 dollars currently in your bank account.
If this was a scam, I would've withdrawn it already.
I also heard you have a girlfriend.
Is someone trying to sabotage us?
How can a businessman not have female acquaintances?
Do you perhaps have a criminal record?
Who fed you these rumors? At least let me know that.
My ex-husband.
That lawyer?
He must be annoyed that his ex-wife is getting married.
He should've treated you right when he had the chance.
I was in lock-up for about 17 days.
Is there a top CEO in Korea who doesn't have a rap sheet?
Maybe I should list some names.
I'm aware of it.
I see them being arrested all the time on the news.
The penthouse is only a daily rental. Check that out too.
Then could we visit the penthouse right now?
Right... now?
- At this late hour? - What could stop us?
You must not trust me.
The wedding's in a few days, so what he said alarmed me.
If I could just check the penthouse...
Sure. Let's head there right now.
Let me call ahead though. The security there is air-tight.
Is this the security office?
I'm Hwang Cheon Gil, the owner of the penthouse unit.
I'm heading there right now.
I'm sorry.
I think I made a mistake.
People can make those, you know.
I'm sorry to do this too,
but the wedding's now off.
Chairman Hwang?
I can't believe I thought of a marriage with you.
How foolish of me.
I'm truly sorry.
I shouldn't have listened to him, but it got in my head.
Our bed is being delivered from Italy tomorrow,
but I guess you're not cut out...
to own this penthouse or that bed.
We should leave.
Hold on.
- This is the sour kimchi. - It's tasty.
- Nicely done. - It'll make a good kimchi jjigae.
Here.
- Bong Ja, have a glass. - Cheers.
You two didn't even get to marry once,
but your sister's having another wedding as if that's something to be proud of.
The families should gather for dinner instead.
I skipped weddings too after my first one.
You two aren't the same.
She's the eldest daughter of a noble family.
Mister, you must be happy...
now that your daughter's marrying a wealthy man.
Of course.
You're grinning from ear to ear.
It can go from temple to temple.
- Well, that's just wrong. - It isn't!
Gosh.
- "This is wrong. Just wrong." - Right.
- There you go. - You're quite good at that.
This is delicious.
The kimchijeon is good, isn't it?
(Balance: 850,502 dollars)
You don't trust me...
when there's 800,000 dollars in your bank account?
Gwang Nam's not the type to even brazenly ask for free food.
All she can do is end up a miserable old lady.
When did I become such a coward?
Back in the day, I once sang in Marronnier Park...
despite the cold winter frost without a single soul watching.
That's only because people don't know you yet.
You'll make it big for sure. You must...
and you will.
You don't have to lift up my spirits.
I'm not kidding. Don't you trust me?
Dae Chang, I'm grateful.
Having people to trust in this field is critical.
You stayed with me during my darkest days...
and I only made it this far thanks to you.
I'll pay you back for that.
You have Tae Ri this time around...
and an advisor by the name of Gwang Sik.
Hang in there, Ye Seul.
I'll...
fight for you in your corner.
The dark horse of Korea's trot industry.
There has never been a singer quite like him.
Give it up for the talented Han Ye Seul!
Go, Ye Seul.
Ye Seul, are you home?
The response wasn't what we expected.
He was obviously dispirited by it, but he forced himself to stay strong.
Ye Seul's more sensitive than he seems.
He's an artist, after all.
The song's good.
Really?
It's better than the songs...
you banged your head to while screeching.
I listen to it all day.
And it's not because you sang it.
I genuinely enjoy the tune.
You know this is the first time you ever complimented me.
And I'm only getting started.
You'll make it as a singer.
Who made you an expert?
I dreamed of becoming a singer too, you know.
No way.
I was too embarrassed to say anything.
I'm quite good too.
I even entered "National Singing Contest" once.
How well did you do?
I won the Popularity Award.
I can't believe it. When was this?
It was so long ago that I don't remember.
I ran away from home at 14 perusing a career in singing.
Your grandpa dragged me home and beat me to a pulp.
I may be a slave's son,
but he couldn't let me become a tacky clown.
That's how singers were viewed back in the day.
It's not like today where people train to become one.
I stopped you from following this path because I know how hard it can be.
One shouldn't try it out just because it seems cool.
Your life will go down the drain before you know it.
Being talented isn't enough in this field.
Luck must find you too which makes it trickier.
If you make it as a singer, you'll be living my dream too.
I'll do it. I'll make it as a singer.
I'm sorry to say this, but I must marry this woman.
I will even without your blessing.
Although, it would be much appreciated.
So that's why you've been nice to me.
No wonder you complimented me for the first time.
Of course not. I meant what I said.
Ye Seul, please hear me out.
I don't need to.
Do whatever you want. We can just sever ties.
How can we when we're father and son?
Whatever.
Just choose. Is it me or her?
What do you mean I should choose? How can you ask that of me?
Life has been tough for me too.
You know how a man's heart operates now that you're 32.
Don't think of me as your father and think of me as a man.
It's torture to live loving someone else.
Can't you understand me just this once?
That may be,
but I will never forgive the woman who made Mom die a painful death.
Have you forgotten how she died?
It was because of the heartache that woman caused!
I give up being your son, so please leave.
My gosh!
Byun Ho.
Don't go.
I'm not a fool, you know.
You've gone far enough.
(Shining under Starlight)
(Sister-in-law Gwang Sik)
What now?
We must meet. It's urgent.
Please stop this.
Gwang Nam is getting married tomorrow.
Gwang Sik. Gwang Sik?
Thank you.
Gosh, congratulations.
Thank you for coming.
- Hello. - Hi.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
Are you sure?
You know my reputation. I dug deep into his background.
All three of Hwang Mang Tae's sons go in and out of prison.
Hwang Cheon Gil is Hwang Mang Tae's son.
Oh, no. Oh, dear. Poor Cheol Soo.
- What... - Move!
Gosh.
1, 2, 3.
Okay. 1, 2, 3.
You can't all be in here.
We greeted just about all the guests.
How is it that you look prettier at your second wedding?
You'll look even better on your third wedding.
Leave if you're going to spew nonsense.
Can't a woman joke?
How you get along with people baffles me.
I'm sorry, Uncle. I should've taught her better.
You're right.
Come in.
Mr. Bae, you should head to court now.
Got it.
Uncle, you're here.
Oh, dear. What's the right way to deliver this news?
This is killing me.
What's going on?
Gwang Nam, brace yourself and hear me out.
Cancel the wedding. This marriage shouldn't happen.
- What? - The guy's a con artist.
Many have been victimized by him.
A warrant's out for his arrest...
and the police have been searching for him.
He lied about his building...
and you could end up an accessory to his crimes.
Did you perhaps talk to my ex-husband?
Your ex-husband? Of course not.
Someone else did a background check...
and everything I said is true.
I told you first because I know you're sensitive.
I'll inform the others that the wedding is off,
so stay here.
Gwang Nam, what's going on?
No one from the groom's side is here.
- Gwang Nam... - Gwang Nam, my gosh.
(Chairman Hwang)
The receiver cannot be reached. You will be directed to voicemail.
(Balance: 0 dollars)
Gwang Nam?
- Gwang Nam! - Oh, no.
Gwang Nam.
Gwang Nam...
- Gwang Nam? - Gwang Nam...
- Goodness. - Gwang Nam!
Oh, no. What now?
- Gwang Nam. - Gwang Nam.
- Gwang Nam! - Gwang Nam!
- Oh, no. - My gosh.
- Gwang Nam. - Gwang Nam!
- What are we going to do? - Oh, no.
Gwang Nam!
Ko Woo Jung broke his leg during the arrest,
so he was taken to the hospital.
Make sure to watch him closely...
- so he won't run away. - Okay.
What happened?
On what charge was Gwang Nam arrested?
You said you're from a noble family.
But you're never free from accidents and incidents.
Did you not know?
Lee Gwang Nam's groom, Hwang Cheon Gil sold...
face ownership of lots and laundered the money through her account.
Oh, no.
Hwang Cheon Gil and his gang noticed that we were after them,
so they tried to stow away this morning.
But thanks to our brilliant exploit, they got arrested.
You've been here many times, so you know what I mean.
What's happening? Go ahead and tell me.
What does he mean by money laundering?
You can't even do the laundry.
Tell me. Did you plan the whole thing with him?
What are you going to do with your life now?
- Dad. - Cheol Soo.
What were you thinking?
Did you think you'll be able to live well off with someone else's money?
This can't happen in our family.
We can't have an ex-convict in our family.
This is wrong. Just wrong!
- Gosh, Cheol Soo. - Dad!
- Dad. - Dad, please.
Dad.
Take good care of Dad. I'll stay here.
Okay, Auntie.
What do we do with Gwang Nam?
I should call Byun Ho.
The receiver cannot be reached. After the beep...
- Isn't he answering? - What do we do?
- Byun Ho! - Byun Ho!
Hello.
I'm Lee Gwang Nam's attorney, Bae Byun Ho.
I knew you'd come.
Gwang Nam isn't an accomplice.
- She is. - Just use your common sense.
If she was an accomplice, why would she have an open wedding ceremony?
She's just a victim who knew nothing about it.
This is from Hwang Cheon Gil and his mistress, Ko Woo Jung.
She's still in the dark, right?
Of course.
Send me the money in her account right away.
It can be dangerous if we do that now.
Why are you acting like an amateur?
I'm Hwang Cheon Gil.
Let me hear some more.
I mean, we need your cooperation.
Let Lee Gwang Nam out of jail first.
Lee Gwang Nam is...
a testifier under suspicion.
She will readily accept the investigation.
Detective Kim.
All right.
Lee Gwang Nam, step out.
We brought a change of clothes.
You guys wait at home.
Oh, dear. You're supposed to be on your honeymoon in that dress.
I'm sorry you ended up at the police station.
Just cut to the chase.
Lee Gwang Nam, you knew what Hwang Cheon Gil was up to, right?
You were his fiancee, so you must've known.
You met him every day for the past month.
You don't have to answer.
I didn't know at first.
"At first?"
- You mean you found out later on? - That's not what she meant.
She didn't say she knew.
She said she didn't know at first. Doesn't that mean she found it out?
I guess you would need some Korean lessons.
Well... The thing is...
Hang on.
What are you trying to say?
I'm going to tell them everything I know.
What do you know?
You were deceived.
You had no idea until I brought it up.
I checked it last night.
I found out that it was a fraud.
Keep your voice down. You didn't know anything.
You just found out everything after you got to the police station.
I don't want to lie.
Just forget about me and go on your own way.
I did commit a crime, and I want to pay for it.
Why are you being like this?
Don't you care about your dad and sisters?
This isn't just about you. What will you do with your family?
What do I do then? There's no way I can get away with it.
I should tell the truth.
Don't say anything and just do as I say.
I'm your attorney now.
And you're my client.
I don't have an attorney.
Just listen to me if you want to live, Ms. Lee Gwang Nam.
Don't say a word from now on.
You didn't know anything.
You will plead the Fifth.
Follow me.
From now on,
under Article 12 Clause 2 of the Constitutional Law...
and Article 200 Clause 2 and Article 289 of the Criminal Procedure Law,
my client will plead the Fifth and decline to answer questions.
And this is it for today.
Why did you get divorced when you care so much about her?
I'm just curious.
Seriously.
I'm not joking.
Gwang Nam.
This is really humiliating.
Don't say that.
Let's go.
I'm glad that Byun Ho is a lawyer.
(Reliable Police, Safe Country)
Those darn wenches.
Did you just curse at us?
You won't get away with this.
Why are you being like this? Who are you?
Let's go.
I ended up like this because of your darn mom.
Do you think you'll be well off?
You guys are being punished for what your mom had done.
I'll end up in jail because of that darn wench.
Those wenches.
What's wrong with her?
Who is she?
What does that mean this is happening because of Mom?
I have no idea. Did she have a problem with Mom?
I've never seen her though.
Get in.
Gwang Nam.
First, I'm sorry for having worried you.
I got involved in a fraud case against my will and ended up here.
I'm being questioned as a testifier under suspicion now.
That means I might become a suspect if they find out...
that I colluded with them.
Whether I knew about it or not,
I believe I should be punished for my crimes.
I'm sorry.
Are you giving a briefing now?
This is just wrong.
You should explain or make excuses with sincerity.
We don't need your briefing.
We're family. Just tell us what has happened.
I have nothing to say.
What do you mean?
Tell me everything about what has happened.
His name is Hwang Cheon Gil, and he almost sent us to the shades.
I'm just speechless with shock.
You were once a lawyer's wife,
but you almost became a fraud's wife.
She's doomed.
You're 43 now, but why can't you see reason?
You always roll your eyes at people,
but did you just get blinded by his money?
Have you not lived enough to tell things like that?
This is just wrong!
She might be on the news tonight.
People took videos of her at the wedding hall earlier.
How did you end up falling for that?
Go ahead and tell me!
You must know something!
Will you say something?
We can't handle this if you don't tell us anything.
You might become a suspect.
If she did something wrong, she should be punished.
Whether I get a criminal record or not, it's not your concern.
It's my business.
Are you proud of getting a criminal record?
How would you face your ancestors up there?
I can't believe we have a fraud in our family.
This is just wrong.
You knew...
that he was a fraud.
Were you going to marry him knowing that he was a fraud?
Yes. I found it out last night.
Then why did you go ahead with it?
You should've canceled your wedding right away.
She's an accomplice.
- She was in all that. - Quiet!
Why did you do that?
How could you do it knowing all that?
What do you want me to do?
Should I kneel and beg for forgiveness?
Should I lie face-down and wail?
What do you want me to do, Dad?
Shall I bite my tongue here and die?
Would that make you feel better?
I'm already too embarrassed and ashamed to face you.
Can't you just leave me alone?
Tell me, Gwang Nam.
Why did you marry him, knowing he's a fraud?
All human beings are alone.
You can't be investigated in my place,
and you can't do time in my place, so keep your mouth shut.
You're all upset and anxious about what this will do to you.
You're afraid it'll tarnish our family name...
and ashamed of facing your ancestors.
You're worried word will get out that your sister's a fraud.
Don't worry.
I got in this mess and I will clean it up.
Don't you worry.
You can disown me.
Pretend you don't have an older sister.
You know how a man's heart operates now that you're 32.
Don't think of me as your father and think of me as a man.
It's torture to live loving someone else.
Can't you understand me just this once?
I will never forgive that woman.
She's the enemy who caused my mom to die.
Pretend you don't have an older sister.
On the stage of my life
I am the lead
Wherever I went
I was number two or three
It caused a lot of heartache
But from now on
To each other
We are number one
What are you doing? Are you busy?
(Number 1)
Hey.
I texted you.
Right. I was busy.
I'm practicing.
I'm learning dance moves and monitoring my progress.
Was your sister's wedding a success?
Actually... It was called off.
Why? What happened?
I'll tell you later.
You must feel bad.
I do.
A customer came in. I have to go.
Is that true?
You're saying that the woman...
colluded with Hwang Cheon Gil and approached Gwang Nam?
Yes. I just heard from the police.
The two met long ago as inmate pen pals,
and were a couple.
They've been partners in crime for a while.
They approached Gwang Nam before...
because the woman told them to.
It seems she was a target for a long time.
No wonder. We saw that woman at the police station two days ago.
She screamed we were being punished for our mom and I got the chills.
Her husband died last year trying to pull a con,
so she approached Gwang Nam to take her money and get revenge.
Her trial is ongoing for what she did last year,
and her plan was to make a fortune and flee abroad before the arrest.
Maeng Ja's torturing her kids even in the afterlife.
It's all her fault.
Gwang Nam became a target for no reason.
No one can beat someone who is determined to harm you.
Naive Gwang Nam was easy prey.
Though they had to cough her up.
It's all my fault.
This wouldn't have happened if I'd kept my family in line.
Why is this your fault, Dad?
I feel sorry for Gwang Nam. I had no idea it was like this.
Where is Gwang Nam?
Call her.
She hasn't eaten since yesterday and she went out.
What?
She's not picking up.
- Mom. - It's pretty, isn't it?
Congratulations. "Congratulations Mom."
Mom.
You should've come on time.
I had work.
You're empty-handed?
I'm sorry, I'll get you something tomorrow. What do you want?
I'll think about it and tell you.
We ordered steak. I heard the steak here is good.
Eat your fill, Mother.
I will, thank you. Thank you.
Let's eat a lot.
Ms. Lee Gwang Nam, it's the police.
We found new evidence and it's serious.
I need you to come in right now.
(Husband)
It looks so good.
I can't lose weight like this.
- Go on a diet tomorrow. - Hey.
Let's eat, Mother.
Let's eat.
Don't cry.
Okay, I'll be right there.
I'm sorry, Mother. I have to rush out.
Where to?
It's Blessing's mom's birthday. You can't leave now.
Does that woman...
mean that much to you?
What do you mean "that woman?"
Is she calling you?
She's at a police station.
She might do time because a fraud got to her.
I can't turn a blind eye when I'm a lawyer.
She has no one else to help her.
I won't be long.
My gosh.
Do not say a word.
I'll deal with it.
Ms. Lee.
Your account was used to make many transactions.
This was wired to you by people who bought fraudulent properties.
This doesn't happen unless you're an accomplice.
This is crucial evidence.
You worked with Hwang Cheon Gil, didn't you?
My client knew nothing until the day of her wedding.
All she did was share her account with the man she was going to marry.
How is it a crime to do that with a fiance?
Ms. Lee, you should think carefully.
Your lawyer doesn't go to prison. You do.
- Well... - Ms. Lee.
Do not forget you're pleading the Fifth.
I, Lawyer Bae Byun Ho am your legal counsel.
Until the day of their wedding,
my client had no idea Hwang Cheon Gil was a fraud,
and that's why she was willing to marry him.
Mother.
Yes?
I think I have indigestion.
Can you buy me some medicine?
That's why you've been yellow in the face.
Wait at home. I'll get something.
My goodness.
(Me and You Pharmacy)
Maria. Where are you?
(Don't look for me. I'm selling the apartment.)
Don't look for me.
I'm selling the apartment.
Ms. Lee.
Where were you on the night before the wedding?
I was at home asleep.
You slept at home?
Then why were you spotted on the penthouse CCTV footage...
at that late hour?
With none other than Hwang Cheon Gil.
At night?
The ex-husband...
I mean, your lawyer seems to be in the dark.
It makes no sense, right?
On the night before the wedding, you met your husband-to-be at a cafe...
and went to the penthouse.
Hwang Man Gil opened the door for you.
That's right.
He's Hwang Cheon Gil's younger brother who is an accomplice to this crime.
What's your explanation for being filmed on camera together?
Didn't you meet up with Hwang Cheon Gil to further discuss your crimes?
Of course not. I only wanted to confirm...
Confirm? Confirm what?
Ms. Lee. Don't say another word.
Just a second.
Yes, Mother.
I'm busy right now. Can't this wait?
This is bad. What do we do?
Maria ran away and took Blessing with her!
She even put the apartment on the market.
We're completely broke now.
She left a note saying we shouldn't find her.
Maria ran away from home?
Okay, I'll look for her.
Can we pick up the questioning some other day?
You're not to question her without her lawyer present.
I see the ex-wife is now on the back burner.
Mother!
What on earth did she say to make you run over to her?
I don't care about anything now. Just bring Blessing home.
I'll die if he's not in my life,
so find him before I die from despair!
The phone is turned off.
Please leave a message after the beep.
Ms. Shin!
Gwang Sik, I'm sorry.
With me gone, all things will return to normal.
Take good care of Dad.
Gwang Nam?
- She left earlier. - Where did she go?
- How should I know? - Shouldn't a detective know that?
I'm sure she took off for a bit. Just give it a day or so.
She didn't run away.
Take a look.
(With me gone, all things will return to normal.)
(Take good care of Dad.)
Unbelievable.
But in cases of adults leaving home voluntarily...
I'm sure she'll come home.
What if something happens to her?
Can we personally hold you responsible?
She sent the same text to every family member.
We must find her before something happens to her.
Detective, please help us.
Is this 911? This is the police.
I'd like to ask for your cooperation.
- Gwang Nam? - Gwang Nam!
- Gwang Nam!
- Gwang Nam.
Gwang Nam!
- Gwang Nam! - Gwang Nam?
Gwang Nam!
- Gwang Nam! - Gwang Nam!

Cheol Soo!
Where?
- My gosh. - Oh, no!
- Gwang Nam! - Gwang Nam, oh, no.
Gwang Nam?
- My gosh. - Oh, no.
Gwang Nam?
My gosh.
Gwang Nam...
- Gwang Nam? - Gwang Nam?
- Gwang Nam! - Gwang Nam!
The phone is turned off.
Please leave a message after the beep.
Can't I have your attention at least once in my life?
I can't ever forget that night, you know.
Who is it?
- Gwang Nam! - Gwang Nam!
- Lee Gwang Nam!
- Gwang Nam! - Ms. Lee!
- Gwang Nam! - Gwang Nam!
Ms. Lee!
- Gwang Nam! - Gwang Nam...
- Gwang Nam! - Gwang Nam.
- Gwang Nam! - Gwang Nam!
Gwang Nam!
(Revolutionary Sisters)
Please save Gwang Nam's life.
I'll pay your retainer no matter what,
so don't worry about that.
There's just something shady about him.
Let's just do what was asked. They offered to pay double.
Okay, fine. I'll meet with her family.
Her family? Are you getting married?
I feel like the happiest woman in the world.
If only time could stop right this second.
