(Episode 86)
Please help me. Don't let this go on air, Woo Jung.
You know that I can't do that.
Woo Jung, please save me.
I beg you.
I'm sorry for everything that I have done. Please help me.
I know your tears are all fake.
I won't let your teardrops and pleas fool me.
You need to suffer too.
You have to pay for all the wrongdoings you have done.
Please help me, Woo Jung.
Get up. This isn't going to change anything.
I don't care if you beg, kneel down,
or do anything else. I cannot forgive you.
Where is my mom?
Find my mom first.
I don't know where she is either. I mean it.
I will destroy you and your lies.
You better be ready.
Standby, five minutes to go.
I want to see Producer Yoon Do Bin.
Producer Yoon, the chairman wants to see you.
What's the matter?
We air in three minutes.
We can talk after...
Cancel the show.
Sir.
This is my order as the chairman of the station.
Cancel this broadcast.
Sir, please tell me the reason.
Even if you're the chairman, you can't just show up and...
call off a show three minutes before it airs.
That is tyranny and a power trip.
I won't overlook this.
Yes, this is a power trip.
Don't overlook it.
Sir.
This isn't what you promised.
You said you wouldn't interfere, that I could air what I wanted.
Do you not keep your word?
I gave you my word as a man...
and I wanted to keep it until the end.
But...
Did Jae Bin ask for a favor?
He came to me looking as if he had lost everything...
and asked me to stop the show from airing.
I went from being a fierce chairman...
to an old man who doesn't know what to do around his grandson.
My goodness.
I knew what Jae Bin wanted,
but didn't think he'd use you to get his way.
He joined your family just a few months ago...
and he's becoming so much like you, it scares me.
He still has a long, long way to go.
I dare warn you one last time.
Don't put any unreasonable pressure on my team again.
You're warning me?
You're the first person to use that word in my presence.
Gosh.
You're a puppy who doesn't know you're dealing with a tiger.
You're the one who brought the puppy into your lair.
Did you forget?
Drop Joo Won's case.
Then I won't interfere in your business again.
I guarantee that.
I won't air it on MSTV.
But I'll find another route.
You won't be able to stop that.
As long as it happens in another field,
I can't block a ridge that has sprung a leak.
You will do anything?
Do you mean that?
Then divorce Hwa Kyung.
Very well. Just stop the show from airing.
How did you convince the chairman?
Even Mom had failed.
I begged with all my heart.
Like you said,
I acted as if I'd die if he told me to.
Thank you.
You stopped the show for me.
What?
The chairman pulled the plug himself?
Yes, sir.
Did his love for his grandson cloud his judgement?
Could he be focusing more on his future heir...
instead of his daughter?
Who's the heir?
Oh Jae Bin?
Instead of me?
I thought your getting divorced meant you'd given up being heir.
Give up? Me?
Why?
Are you afraid I'll be ousted?
No, sir, I was just concerned.
Concerned?
Is your concern about how frail your only connection is?
Remember, the longer I live, the longer you live.
Of course.
Are you still looking for Joo Won?
- Yes. - Find her quick.
If she's dead, find her body. How many times must I say?
I'll hurry.
(Video Files)
(Transferring)
(Interview Footage)
(Transferring)
Yes, Do Bin.
Where are you?
At home. I just got into bed.
Are you upset?
You must be disappointed too.
Forget about it all and rest.
I'm sorry. I really wanted to air the show...
and I thought I could but it wasn't enough.
I underestimated the Miseong family.
I'm so sorry.
Don't say that.
You give me strength and comfort.
If it hadn't been for you, I wouldn't know what to do.
Talking to you makes me want to see you.
Shall we meet up?
See you tomorrow. I want to sleep.
Okay. Sleep well.
Hello. I used to be an announcer at MBS...
and I currently work for MSTV.
My name is Han Woo Jung.
I'm taping this alone today...
because we prepared a program...
but the management forced us to pull it.
The show is on Han Joo Won's incident.
I'm off to work.
Breakfast's ready. Won't you have some?
See you.
What's got into him?
Is he in a rush?
He saw it too.
He saw what?
No. It'll shock you both.
You've been saying that since yesterday.
We've been through so much that not much will shock us now.
Don't worry and tell us.
Han Joo Won, Korea's most famous anchor...
was framed about five months ago for rigging a show...
and was ousted from the industry she worked for her whole life.
Then because of a scandal with Miseong Apparel's President...
Shin Myung Joon, the public condemned her again.
All this happened in a short span of time,
but something is very strange.
There was no evidence that linked Han Joo Won...
directly to the rigged show or the scandal.
What?
What is this about?
Woo Jung put this on her social media.
It's spreading like wildfire.
She did this without Do Bin knowing?
That's why he left in a hurry.
This is why I can't accept her.
Why did she air a show the chairman told her to pull?
Mom, this show needs to go on air.
Then we can help find...
who really hurt Ms. Han.
Are you saying Do Bin and Woo Jung know who did it?
Who is it?
Sir, there's something you must see.
What? What is it?
A video that Han Woo Jung uploaded on the social media.
What?
On the day of her accident,
Han Joo Won attended...
the wedding of Oh Jae Bin of Miseong Group and Shin Hwa Kyung.
The last person whom Han Joo Won met on that day was...
the bride, Shin Hwa Kyung.
We could confirm...
Shin's voice on the voice recording...
found on Han's cell phone right before she fell.
Sadly, we could not identify the contents of the conversation...
due to static and noise.
However, you can definitely hear Han Joo Won's scream...
in the last moment.
Let go of me!
My goodness.
I stopped the program, and she posts it on the Internet?
Is Yoon Do Bin behind this?
No, I believe Han Woo Jung has done this all by herself.
Why did Han Joo Won...
scream and fell down the stairs...
after she had a conversation with the happy bride, Shin Hwa Kyung?
However, Shin completely denies having met her on that day.
The production crew got an undeniable evidence.
It's Shin's bloodstained wedding dress.
Han Woo Jung. Han Woo Jung!
Hwa Kyung, are you okay?
No, I'm not okay.
Han Woo Jung is out to ruin my life like Han Joo Won did!
I can't let her do this.
Wait.
Hwa Kyung.
Woo Jung.
Why did you upload that online without telling me?
Because you would have stopped me...
or disclosed it all alone.
How can you do this if you knew that?
How are you going to handle this?
It's about my mom.
I will take the responsibility, and I will handle this.
I had to do this.
You might get hurt!
Miseong isn't going to just let this happen.
I'm not an idiot who doesn't even know that.
That's why I did this.
I was afraid you will jump into the fire in my place.
I no longer want you to be harmed because of me.
Why do you think I'm getting harmed?
I do this because I want to.
I'm doing this for you!
Han Woo Jung.
Shin Hwa Kyung. Let go. Let go of me!
You want to ruin my life, don't you?
How dare you upload that online?
Do you think I'll let you live?
Die. Just die!
- Die! - Let go of her!
Hwa Kyung!
Yoon Do Bin. The same goes for you too.
Why do you want to ruin my life?
I didn't do it. It was an accident!
An accident? Was it just an accident?
It wasn't. You wanted my mom to die.
If not, you couldn't have gotten married without doing anything.
You should have taken her to a hospital or made a report!
Hwa Kyung.
You must be investigated,
and pay for your crimes, if there are any.
What are you doing?
Don't touch her.
I don't care if you're my brother.
I won't accept this even if you are my brother.
How dare you use some petty power to stop my program?
I'll show you how great that petty power is.
I'll make sure you know.
That's enough. What are you brothers doing?
It'll be no use even for this broadcast or anything worse.
Ms. Han can't come back.
What do you mean?
Tell me. Tell me!
Han Joo Won is dead.
Goodness.
What did we just watch?
Did Hwa Kyung really do something that scary?
It's not that she did that. There is a high possibility.
Same difference. Hwa Kyung is involved in this.
My goodness. This is really bad.
Jae Bin is going to be heartbroken.
And Do Bin was going to get this program on air, right?
Yes.
How can he get...
Miseong's grandson and his brother, Jae Bin in trouble?
How can he attack his sister-in-law, Hwa Kyung...
on the national TV that everyone can watch?
Didn't you know that's who Do Bin is?
Even if he finds out that Chairman Oh is his grandfather,
he would choose to stand with justice.
I know that. But still.
That amazing Chairman Oh will not care...
even if Do Bin does 12 episodes of this.
But things are different with Jae Bin.
He just became a part of Miseong family.
He should have let him catch a break as his brother.
How can he stick to the rules?
I know he's a great guy,
but he makes me lose my love for him whenever he does this.
Hey.
We'll always be guilty when it comes to Do Bin.
Whatever.
I feel more bitter against him than sorry right now.
This is just who I am.
Goodness.
My mom is dead?
That's not true, is it?
That's not true!
I'm not sure. But there is a high possibility that she is.
A possibility? Why?
- Did you hurt her? - Stop talking nonsense!
Then... Then who did?
I can't tell you.
But you won't be able to find her.
So this is enough. You need to give up!
If you go on, both you and Do Bin will get hurt!
No. No way.
She's not dead.
Where is she? Who did this?
Who took her?
Who is trying to hurt her?
Are you serious about Ms. Han?
How can you be so sure?
Chairman Oh stepped in.
My grandfather? Why?
The one thing he cherishes the most is his bloodline.
He won't forgive anyone who messes around with Mom and you.
Then was it because of Aunt?
My mom was continuously suspicious about Han Joo Won and Dad.
It got worse after she fell in delirium.
She lived in the time when she dated my dad.
But still, how can he hurt her?
He's like that.
I need to check this for myself.
What? What do you mean, what did I do with Han Joo Won?
I asked if you hurt her.
Why do you want to know?
Did you forget who she was?
I used to be her manager...
You fool!
Manager? What manager?
Why do you still remember that?
You are now Oh Sang Pil's only grandson,
Oh Jae Bin.
Who said I wasn't?
I mean that I cannot just neglect her.
No, right?
No matter how scary you are, you will never hurt someone.
Just consider her as a dead woman.
Are you serious?
Did you really hurt...
Just forget the fact that she ever existed.
What's more important is...
the awful rumor about Miseong family that is spreading quickly.
They say your wife, Hwa Kyung is an attempted murderer,
no, a murderer.
Hwa Kyung isn't the murderer. It's you. That's the truth.
The truth isn't important.
It's what people believe.
And what did you say before?
You said you will divorce her...
if I stop the program.
Divorce her immediately!
Once Hwa Kyung is investigated by the police,
she might be tried...
as an attempted murderer...
and end up in prison.
Can you handle all that?
Why don't you just get divorced now?
Then I'll sort everything out for you.
I can't get divorced.
What?
Did you dare con me to get your way?
That was the only way to stop the show from airing.
How dare you?
You promised to let me marry Hwa Kyung,
then you locked her up in a mental institute.
You even threw her out of the house...
when she miscarried saving your life.
Why you... You...
You failed to prevent the show from airing anyway.
What?
Ms. Han's missing and presumed dead...
because you gave the order, not Hwa Kyung.
Why are you blaming everything on her?
Why you... I will...
I should just...
Stop it, sir!
I'll go in for questioning.
Hwa Kyung.
Whatever the result may be,
you will accept it?
Yes.
But I will not get divorced.
Why did you say you'll be questioned?
What if you become a suspect?
If the police investigates properly,
they'll reveal that I'm not the culprit.
But the media is treating you like one already.
As long as you don't, it's fine.
Even if I become the victim of a witch hunt,
I'm okay as long as you're on my side.
Will you do that?
Don't worry.
Even if the world splits in two and ends tomorrow,
I'm on your side.
What questioning?
You'll let the police investigate Hwa Kyung?
Yes. I gave my permission for her to go in for questioning.
Father.
The media's riled up...
and she didn't do it anyway.
What's there to fear?
Let's take it head-on.
"Investigate it all you want. We have nothing to fear."
She should have some guts.
What if there's a witch hunt?
It would hurt her too much.
Do you still care that much about her?
It's not just about her.
I'm involved as well.
You will never get hurt.
I won't let that happen.
What will you do with Myung Joon?
It's over already.
We signed the papers.
And he still wants Miseong Apparel?
How dare he?
He asked for Miseong Apparel?
Did you think he'd be willing to go empty-handed?
What do you plan on doing?
What should I do? Perhaps...
What do you want to do?
Kick him out with nothing.
No. Make him feel even worse.
Leave Myung Joon to me...
and help Hwa Kyung.
Please?
It'll be no use even for this broadcast or anything worse.
Ms. Han can't come back.
Han Joo Won is dead.
No, she isn't. It can't be.
Don't cry.
When you miss Mom, smell her.
Mom's smell.
It's really her smell.
I miss her.
Don't you?
Yes. Woo Cheol misses Mom too.
I miss her nagging too.
Her nagging?
Nagging?
You're way worse than me.
Why do you think I saved you...
on my phone as "Nagging Princess"?
"Nagging Princess"?
Gosh.
You say I'll turn into a hippo...
and won't let me eat what I want.
You only allow me one sip of beer.
And make me sleep early so my skin stays smooth.
You're a terrible nag.
She can call me...
a nagging witch for all I care.
I just want her to come home.
Then I'll let her eat all she wants...
and drink all the beer she wants...
and sleep when she wants.
Don't cry.
I don't need her memories to come back.
She can even forget you and me because of her condition.
I just want her back.
I have 20 percent of the shares.
You have 8, you have 5.
10 percent of the executives are on our side.
There's the 10 percent we have in borrowed name accounts.
We stand a chance.
We'll trust and go with you all the way.
Keep quiet about this until I take on the chairman.
I threatened him,
but he might plan something.
That's all for today.
Bye.
Hwa Kyung will go in for questioning.
The chairman gave the permission?
Yes, sir.
What's the old man up to?
Is he going to frame her for everything?
Why did you ask to see us both?
Do you have a lead as to where my mom is?
What's this?
How...
How could she...
How...
She did fall down the stairs after tussling with Hwa Kyung.
But how...
This is negligence.
It's not murder but it's almost as bad.
I won't ever forgive her.
Woo Jung.
How did you get this footage?
I found it while looking into your mom's disappearance.
Why are you giving this to us?
I want Hwa Kyung to stop.
And clear Joo Won's name.
My mom is... She's not dead, is she?
It's nothing but Hwa Kyung's guess. Nothing is certain.
Believe she's alive.
Do you have nothing to do with Han Joo Won's attempted murder?
Are you involved with her disappearance too?
Please answer us.
Is Ms. Han alive?
She disappeared after the attempted murder.
And she has been missing ever since then.
Did you hurt her by any chance?
Hey, stop talking nonsense.
What kind of a question is that?
Hello. I am Shin Hwa Kyung, the wife of Director Oh Jae Bin of Miseong,
and the assistant manager of Strategic Planning Department.
I am brokenhearted to see the recent events on...
Ms. Han's attempted murder and disappearance.
Ms. Han was my mentor and a role model...
when I worked as an announcer.
All of the recent rumors are...
groundless rumors made in an attempt to attack me.
As the granddaughter-in-law of Miseong Group...
and a citizen of the Republic of Korea,
I promise to...
voluntarily submit myself for an investigation...
as a testifier.
(Secret and Lies)
Chairman Oh wants me to be confined?
Yoon Do Bin!
How do you call yourself my brother?
My goodness!
How is that possible?
What do you have to lose? That's Dad's weakness.
His weakness?
Please spare my life, Director Oh.
Miseong Apparel is my life.
- Get rid of him. - Chairman Oh!
I'm the owner of this room.
No, I'm the owner of this room as of now.
