EPISODE 18
If I could do it over, I want to go back
to being my wife's husband and my son's father.
That's me being greedy.
I'm sorry, Joon-Jae. I love you, my son.
Father.
119? There's an emergency patient.
Any medications?
I'm unsure. He had a recent cerebral hemorrhage.
He may have had medications for upcoming cataract surgery.
There are no injuries, and no sign of toxins.
Blue lips indicate myocardial infarction
but we need further tests.
Where's your mother?
She's out. She phoned me 2 hours ago about her plans.
- She doesn't know your father died? - Right.
I had no chance to tell her.
I thought it'd shock her.
Oh.
May we transport him to his treating hospital?
Yes.
Ah, Father!
Father! What do we do!
No!
No, wait! Wait! Father!
It's not time yet, Father!
Dad!
Dad, I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
After a postmortem, a legal document will be issued to allow a funeral.
Alright.
I will do that.
Heo Chi-Hyun.
Come here, you bastard!
What are you doing? Who are you?
Because of you, my father... because of you and that woman!
I won't let you be! I'll kill you. I'll kill you both!
Is he crazy? What's this?!
Get off!
You murderers! You guys killed my father!
What the heck! Who are you?
I... I'm Heo Il Joong's son!
I...am his son.
Right. He's my little bro.
Little bro?
Am I, you bastard?
Who are you, bastard!
- Who do you think you are? - Let go! Want to get arrested?
Hold him, hold him, hold him.
Get off him, jerks!
Get off. Don't touch him.
Heo Joon-Jae. Get a grip.
Right, come to your senses.
Father...
Father has died.
I should've stopped it...
but I couldn't.
So be sensible, punk.
You must find out
all about your father's ending.
Go to your father. I'll handle here. OK?
Hey! Be calm!
What's up?
I'm worrying about Heo Joon-Jae.
Detective Hong is there. He'll let us know.
But, Chong, may I ask something?
You said it earlier.
Ma Dae-Young. Ma Dae-Young can't remember anything.
What can't he remember?
Who he is, what he's done.
Did Ma Dae-Young really lose his memory?
How would you know?
Did you make Ma Dae-Young like that?
Why'd you ask that?
I never knew you well.
But I'm not sure who you are or what you can do.
Who are you?
I am...
your friend.
Ah, friend.
But I pose as someone's friend, then backstab them.
I don't like your kind.
But once I'm a friend, that's it.
Backstabbing is your choice.
If I get backstabbed, I'll think what to do with you.
Till then, you're my friend.
- Why didn't you answer my call? - Scared me. What's up?
Can you erase mine?
The memory of my father.
Heo Joon-Jae.
Can't you do it?
Make me forget?
Good memories
hurt because they're good.
Bad memories
hurt because they're bad.
All my memories of my father
hurt so much.
I can't erase them.
However much it hurts, you loved your father.
You must hold onto the memory of love even if it hurts.
If I'd gotten there a bit sooner,
I could've saved Father.
No.
If I'd hated him a bit less,
I could've saved Father.
No.
Just a bit...
It's not so.
It's not your fault.
It's not because of you.
I should've taken...
his last phone call...
to say...
that it's okay... that I forgave everything...
that I love him, too.
I should've said it.
I couldn't say those words.
I was too busy hating him.
I couldn't say those words.
Just one day...no...
one hour... or even one minute...
I want to talk to Father.
Now I can't.
I can't anymore.
Some things are said wordlessly.
I'm sure he knew it all.
~ The Legend of the Blue Sea ~
Mortuary
Honey.
Why are you here, honey?
Why are you?
This isn't possible. We talked about my going out.
You told me to get fresh air.
You said, "See you later."
I shouldn't have gone out.
Honey!
If you leave like this, how can I live?
No! This is unthinkable!
It can't be possible.
How can you go by yourself?
How can you leave me alone?!
Please calm your mother.
- You can't enter like this. - No, Honey! No! You can't!
Honey!
- Mother! - She fainted from shock. Take her to the ER.
Wow! It's a shame to watch it by myself.
She has great talent. She should've been an actress.
How'd your father suddenly get like that?
They're still examining his body.
We'll know the result tomorrow.
I told him to stop drinking and smoking.
He didn't listen.
As we age,
older memories are clearer. That's how I am now.
Old days seem like yesterday.
Your father didn't seem to be that way.
Did you meet Father?
Mm. A month ago, I saw him in this hospital.
He pretended not to know me.
He saw me but passed by.
His gaze seemed as if he forgot everything.
He was a mean person.
If I could do it over,
I would like to be
my wife's husband and my son's father.
That's probably my greed.
Father was almost blind from corneal damage.
What?
He didn't pretend not to see you.
He couldn't see you.
Yes, Attorney Lee.
Please submit his death notification tomorrow.
I'll send you the Certificate and other documentation.
Also, work on transferring inheritance.
How long will it take?
It will be a week.
That's too long. Finish it soon.
I'm fine now.
I won't take medication, so don't fill the prescription.
It was you.
What?
Mother, you must tell me.
I must know so I can help.
Sure.
That's right.
But...
just in case, you know nothing.
Jo Nam-Doo?
Attention!
A new fighter?
I am Park Moo.
I heard your skills are excellent.
Please assist my son well.
If one possesses a lot, many people want it.
Yes. How do you know my name?
Can we chat?
I heard Joon-Jae does strange work.
I was worried and looked into it.
Oh, yeah.
I also found out you differ from Joon-Jae.
Joon-Jae runs cons on black money
so victims can't report it.
But you don't care.
In other words,
- all crime? - Yes.
I don't discriminate.
I eat all foods and do all kinds of work.
So what?
By tomorrow,(banmal - informal)
no, even today, I can put you in jail.
What will you do? (banmal)
Listen to me or rot in jail?
Why'd you use banmal? (formal speech)
Please treat me nicely.
I side with money.
You'll inherit your father's assets.
No need to threaten me.
I have reason to side with you.
What do you want?
- I'll get rid of Joon-Jae. - Where?
Where he won't be anywhere.
Ah, actually,
I want something special.
If Joon-Jae disappears, it will be easier for me.
Ah, that's fine.
I felt close to him, but let's do it.
He and I can end.
Cause of death...
sudden death by heart failure.
Not death by poisoning?
Poison turns lips dark brown
but his lips were bluish.
It's a symptom of cardiac arrest.
There were no signs of toxic chemicals.
I find it was a natural death from acute heart failure.
Cyanide poison is obvious
but natural flower poisons are different.
Flower poisons mimic heart failure.
I want an autopsy.
It can reveal the real cause of death and corneal damage.
You'll kill your father twice?
What?
You want something unfound?
That's not it. Sending him off
like that makes me crazy.
I don't want him cut to pieces.
What would an autopsy show?
- Proof you killed my father. - Hey!
Don't, Chi-Hyun.
It's been 10 years, Joon-Jae.
Your father missed you so much
but you never visited home.
Why are you like this all of a sudden.
Is it for money?
I'll give it all to you. So,
let him rest peacefully. He is your father.
Let's not be so cruel.
You have perfect acting.
You bewitched people and blinded my father.
It won't work anymore.
I'm the biological son.
Wolf's Bane flowers,
micro-needles and paralytic pills belonging to Kang Seo Hee,
are evidence of murder, so I request an autopsy.
I am the oldest son.
I'm the only son Father acknowledged.
My little bro left home and cut contact with Father.
Father cut him out of inheritance.
Mother and I reject an autopsy.
Father would agree with us.
Search And Seizure warrant. Search the place!
Ah, isn't it too early for funeral garb?
The funeral is soon.
A search may hold up burial.
- You are confident. - Think what you like.
Whatever I say, you won't believe me.
Do you know Kang Ji Yeon?
And, from now on,
ask questions through my lawyer.
Ah, lawyer...
You have to use your lawyer.
Of course. It's your twin sister's name.
It was hard to get this photo.
You two look so alike.
Fraternal twins, right?
What are you suggesting?
Where's your sister now?
Or is that you?
I'm going crazy.
Hey, nothing?
As you can see.
Were you wrong this time?
No. It couldn't have left this house.
There'd be something here.
Honey, not red. Black.
Why?
CEO Heo...has died.
What? How?
I don't know. I just heard.
Oh, how's it turning out?
He died so suddenly, what about our future?
CEO Heo left everything to the adopted son and Kang Seo Hee.
He did.
But though he notarized his Will,
I thought his true son would inherit.
Right, a Will can be changed.
But if he died so suddenly,
nothing can be changed.
Did we line up on the wrong side?
It's beyond even that.
Ugh! What I did to that Kang Seo Hee...
Oh god! I'll be dismembered!
Can't you change sides?
So cheap. Changing sides once is acceptable.
Changing sides twice is just plain wrong.
- I can't do that! - What do we do?
I don't know it!
Hey, how can you be here?
How do you think? I'm making it awkward for you.
Joon-Jae's father,
I had reasons not to forgive you.
But your end is so sad.
Can you see me?
Look properly. I need to say farewell.
Like mother, like son.
Your son never visited his father in 10 years.
Now he's dead, there's no better son.
It must for money.
You pettily came here
to sniff for crumbs, right?
If you'd stayed still, I'd have dished some out.
If you turn up so loudly,
would I give you a cent?
Hey!
- You went crazy?! - You and your son sniffed for crumbs.
Leeching off others should have satisfied you.
Now a thief acts like an owner?
You're greedy.
What? A thief?
- What's this? - Hitting? You're in no position to hit her.
What are you? Who are you to interfere?
Watch what you say.
Oh, you know her? No wonder!
Let go! Won't you let go?
What are you doing?!
There's something I'm curious about.
What's this?
Don't forget your medicine.
What's wrong, Chong?
What did you just do?
I could've taken everything, but I did nothing.
You shouldn't forget all the wrong you did.
You should remember it all till the end.
Remember all the things you coveted
so not obtaining them will torment you.
Let's go now.
- Get me some more side dishes. - I'm not a worker here.
Yes.
Oh, Madam.
- Madam, you must be so sad. - Oh, you lost weight.
- You're still beautiful. - Oh, I'm worried.
Wow, how can anyone have so few principles?
They're lucky.
Ugh, why is honesty my principle? I'm insane.
Where's Moo Ran Unnie? We're the odd ones out.
Should I serve too?
- Did they find evidence? - Not yet.
- You won't go to the funeral hall? - No.
You should go.
How can I? I haven't found out why Father died.
Must you do that?
What?
- The autopsy. - What?!
It's all in the past. Whatever truth is found
won't bring your father back.
It's just poking at them. And besides that,
you should sweet-talk them to get something.
It's none of your business. Don't say those things!
I didn't say anything I shouldn't have.
Think about it.
Heo Joon-Jae.
I saw something.
You came to be with me, and got to see bad things.
I'm upset all this is in your memories.
Even though I'm happy I can protect you?
You protect me?
Why, Heo Joon-Jae? Think I can't?
True, I came to land ignorant and got treated like an idiot.
- But I was adept in the sea. - Is that so?
Sure! As a mermaid, I'm an endangered species.
Oh, human submarines and skin scuba-whatever barge underwater.
Do you know it's hard for merpeople to survive?
And sharks come to bite us. Our lives are hard.
What do you do when a shark comes?
I fight it and win.
Wow, really? My girl's the best!
You smiled. I'll make you smile.
"I'll protect you", "I'll make you smile" are what the guy says!
I'll protect you. I'll make you smile.
You said what I should say, dummy.
What to do? We made no progress.
It's here.
- Where are you going? - The basement?
I looked there.
She made this place. It didn't exist.
Forensics and I checked here.
It's there.
- That's Wolf's Bane. - Don't touch! Touch nothing.
Fingerprints will show up.
What's that? A mermaid?
Ma Dae Young. Ma Dae Young was here.
Kang Seo Hee was Kang Ji Yeon.
Joon-Jae, thank god. Join your brother to greet mourners.
I should. After I see you put in jail.
What?
Heo Il Joong's unnatural death is now a murder case.
The deceased will be immediately moved to National Forensics.
What did you say? With whose permission?
Kang Seo Hee, no, Kang Ji Hyeon, I arrest you for murder.
You have the right to remain silent and to an attorney, as you wish.
Do you have evidence? Or a warrant?!
Your mother left so much evidence at home,
it's a no-warrant arrest.
Are you saying I killed my husband?
This is a shabby frame-up.
My husband would be so upset.
Shut up! Don't speak about Father glibly.
His words have weight.
What are you doing? Why'd you cuff me?!
Remove them! Can't you uncuff me? Take them off!
You made a mistake. Uncuff me!
Are you safe doing this to an innocent person?
Take them off!
Chi-Hyun! Call the lawyer!
- Chi-Hyun! Call the lawyer, hurry! - Rascal.
Chi-Hyun.
Noona.
Mm. But what made the atmosphere this way?
How could this happen? Joon-Jae must be so sad.
He just met his mother, and this happened?
Where's your car?
I took the bus.
Can I drop you off?
It's okay. Well, will you?
But don't burden me thinking something else, OK?
Hey, isn't he hot?
Hey, look. He's totally hot.
They're so loud.
~ why am I looking at her? ~
~ could it be love? ~
~ why do I smile when I see her? ~
~ could it be love? ~
~ it must be a dream ~
What's this?
~ it must be a dream ~
He'd be excited to know he fell asleep on my shoulder.
~ Why am I like this? Just why am I? ~
How can he be prettier than a girl?
Hey, see?
Awesome!
Oh no, I get off here.
~ wake me up, oh me ~
~ what magic are you using on me? ~
~ how are you doing this to me? ~
Sleep here.
But Ma Dae-Young lost memories yet recalls the mermaid.
Right.
Ma Dae-Young remembers the mermaid better than Dam-Ryung.
Se-Hwa spoke nicely, smiled prettily, and acted demurely.
Same face, different personality.
Why are you like that?
But is past life repeating in the same way?
Why?
As I erased Ma Dae Young's memory, I saw another man's face.
Who?
Ma Dae Young didn't throw our death spear.
What's that mean?
Someone else threw it. I saw that man's face.
Who is it?
Someone we know.
There's only circumstantial evidence.
The poison tonic is evidence you gave it to the Chairman.
They'll ask leading questions. Keep your answers short.
For unfavourable questions, say "I don't remember,"
"my head hurts, I'm ill."
Use your right to remain silent.
Under an arrest without a warrant,
they can only hold you for 48 hours.
Hurry and tell us, or it will go against you.
I don't know.
See here. You had this cup...
I don't know.
Why'd you get a prescription for a paralytic?
My head hurts. No.
You used Wolf's Bane tea-!
I don't know.
I have a panic disorder.
I don't remember. I know nothing!
She sticks to "no recollection." I thought she'd confess.
If she confesses, she won't inherit. So she'll hang on grimly.
No confession means an investigation without detention?
He's leaving after meeting the Detective.
Your mom will be released about 6pm, right?
Then, how is tonight?
They won't stay still. We strike first.
It's urgent.
[Police: We Serve You with Devotion]
Oh!
What?
It's Joon-Jae hyung.
What about Heo Joon-Jae?
Is Jo Nam-Doo crazy? Why'd he do that?
Can't I go by myself? What if it's dangerous?
Tae-Ho, you're not in the know.
If we had a fight, you'd fold.
I'm stronger than you. Speed up.
Tie him tighter.
Hey, bastard! How can you? How can you?!
You fell for a woman
and stopped working with me. You betrayed me!
I have to make a living. Sorry about this.
Untie me. Untie me, bastard!
And this.
What's that?
Your suicide note. It'll be found in your room.
You commit suicide from the guilt of killing your dad.
What?
Don't.
Don't...
This component, Aconitine, killed your dad.
You'll be comfy (dead) in 10 to 30 minutes.
Damn bastard.
Being disinherited is sufficient murder motive.
And...you know the house layout and concealed evidence in the basement.
Joon-Jae.
It's easy to make up a story.
- Chi-Hyun. - Yes, Mother.
Wait outside with that man.
Would I leave you alone?
What are you going to do?
Dead men tell no tales.
Look at your father. He can't say anything.
How could you do that to Father?
Father was so good to you!
Wasn't I good?! For 17 years!
17 years, I was good as Heo Il Joong's helpmeet.
But when he left his fortune, he only looked for his blood.
That's why you killed him?
Mm. I killed him.
Anyway, your father was dying.
Truthfully, he hadn't ingested that poison only a few days.
He unknowingly got addicted to it in small doses.
He'd have died in a year.
But when he wanted to notarise his Will
so you'd inherit, I sent him off early.
You killed your previous husbands that way, Kang Ji Yeon.
True. No-one knew even after 20 years passed.
Probably after 20 years, no-one will know
I killed you and your father.
Will that be so?
Who rang? I said not to call in working hours.
Come out!
What's this?
What?! Who are you?! Won't you let go? Let go!
You! How dare you-
See how many put on a show to make you confess your crimes.
Hey, she has a panic disorder. Hurry and lock her up
so she's alone.
Let me go!
Let me go! Let go!
Let go!
Hey! You, Heo Joon-Jae! You will be in trouble!
Heo Chi-Yeon offered me a job.
Do I look like a betrayer?
Heo Chi-Hyun sees a person correctly.
So what did you say?
What do you mean? I said I'd do it.
Untrustworthy.
Hey, he inherits and you're a beggar.
Hey, know my principle, right? First, money. Second, more money.
Then take the money and do it. Why'd you tell us?
My third principle doesn't fit.
The third? What is it?
- Manners. - What?
I have manners. That younger jerk spoke banmal to me.
I speak banmal to you.
You're the landlord. I respect and admire my landlord.
So, you told him no?
No, I accepted.
Why?
We have to hit him.
- What? - Backstab.
[ We're being wire tapped. Talk by texts ]
Did they find evidence? - Not yet.
Not going to the funeral? - No.
[ Act angry ]
You should go.
How can I? I didn't find out how Father died.
[ No. Be a bit angrier! ]
Must you do that?
- What? - The autopsy.
None of your business. Should you say that?!
[Sure. You're doing well]
Let's get ready.
Okay.
[I'll hit you by the car door]
Fall down.
Make it realistic. Would a hit at the back bleed there?
It really hurt earlier.
What, it's not a real steel pipe. Why are you fussing about a hit?
Hey, right or left at the port?
Straight.
Hey, I lost the turn! Damn it.
You! You! Heo Joon-Jae! Oh! Can't you let go?!
Let go!
Mother.
Chi-Hyun.
Bastard!
- Stop. - Chi-Hyun!
You can't!
- Good work. - Well done.
Hey!
Hey!!
Chi-Hyun!
Hurry and get in.
Heo Joon-Jae!
I saw that man's face.
Heo Chi-Hyun.
