(Episode 14)
I'm trying to find out why...
she came all the way here on the day she went missing.
The day she went missing?
I don't mean anything else.
Near your holiday home,
the last call she made was to you.
I came to trace her steps...
to find out what happened to her that she couldn't come back.
(Missing Person)
No way. It can't be.
It rained so heavily...
that there were no passers-by.
Rain?
What I mean is...
So...
You're looking for evidence now...
you couldn't find back then.
Where did you get such a pathetic idea?
I'm speechless.
You don't even know the basics of an investigation.
It may seem pathetic to you but it isn't to me.
I don't care.
Don't think of getting my grandpa or his holiday home involved.
It's totally unrelated.
We'll find out soon enough.
I'm not sure about anything else,
but I am sure that she was here.
You can go home.
Yes, sir.
So,
last time,
why did you visit the seolleongtang place's lawyer?
Do you happen to know his mother...
who's missing?
Why am I so sleepy when I didn't do much today?
You had massive surgery. It's only natural that you're tired.
You should sleep.
Oh, dear.
He's avoiding the question.
There's definitely something.
What should I do to make him tell me about it?
Where did he go? He's not even answering my call.
Should I call Mr. Yang?
Should I tell him to find Tae Hyung?
Don't do that. Stay out of this.
- Mother. - Don't you dare tell this...
to your grandfather.
If you even say a word about it...
What is it?
What secret are you keeping from Mr. Chairman?
What are you doing here?
Don't worry. The chairman is already asleep.
Didn't I tell you to leave when your work hour is over?
How could I do that?
The chairman wanted me to stay and chat with him all along.
I can't just leave right away so heartlessly.
I've never asked you for overtime payment.
Don't you think you're being so harsh?
If words about anything in this house get out,
that will be all on you, so keep that in mind.
My goodness. Why is it on me?
There are housekeepers and janitors.
There are so many people who come and go.
(Mom)
You shall never drive again, okay?
I only hit a road sign,
but she cut my license.
(Mom)
How have you been?
What brings you here?
I have something to ask you.
To me?
Yes.
Well...
I was wondering if Mom had known the chairman.
Everyone in Iryu-dong knew about him unless they lived under a rock.
She knew about him after she moved to the neighborhood.
Then what about the chairman?
Had he known my mom?
Well, I don't know if he knew your mom.
Since my mom went to see him at the holiday home,
I think she had known about him.
But she never said anything about it.
Maybe she got to know the chairman before she got married?
Before she got married?
Before she married your dad,
she lived in this neighborhood for a while.
- Didn't you know about it? - No, I didn't.
She was seeing someone back then, but they had to break up.
She left this neighborhood after that,
I'm sorry that you had to hear this from me, not from your mother.
I think she didn't mention it because it was before meeting your father.
Your mom had so many secrets.
So I'm not sure whether she knew...
the chairman or not.
Ju Hong.
Where are you?
Where am I?
Okay.
Did you run all the way here?
Why did you go to my house? Why did you meet my mom?
Take a breath first.
Why did you go there by yourself?
I had told my parents that I was dating you this morning.
I see. So that's why she did that.
What? Did my mom say something to you?
No, well...
Did you get hit by her? Did she hit you in the face or stomach?
Well...
Did she punch you in the chest?
It really hurts when she hits.
That's not it.
She was much nicer than before.
It made my heart flutter.
My gosh.
She didn't say anything about us.
She was just worried about me.
What a relief. I was really worried on my way here.
You should know your mom better, Ju Hong.
I just got blinded because I was so worried about my boyfriend.
Don't worry. I'll be a good boyfriend.
You won't run away no matter what happens, right?
We knew that they would be against us.
Of course. That will never happen.
You always need to remember...
I'm worth going through all that.
I've waited for nine years because you had been against our relationship.
If we give up because of my parents,
that would be nonsense. Don't you agree?
Yes, I agree with you. You're right.
- What? - I'm asking you...
if I had hit a person.
What are you talking about?
Why are you asking me that all of a sudden?
It wasn't a road sign, right?
Why is he doing this? Did he remember something?
A road sign or a person.
Give me an answer.
Mother.
You're right.
It was a person.
Tae Hyung, don't worry.
It won't change anything.
Of course it will. I had hit a person.
It wasn't you. It was me.
It was me who caused the accident.
That's how it's settled now.
- What did you say? - That day,
you were upset because you didn't do well in your interview.
You were drinking in Seoul that day.
And the victim...
is doing just fine.
I've compensated her enough.
She was treated for everything until the end.
Nothing is wrong with her,
and she's doing great right now.
- So Tae Hyung... - I need to see her.
Why would you do that?
There's nothing wrong with her health, and she's doing great.
Why would you...
bring it up again and ask for trouble?
I'm going to be in politics.
As soon as I hit the headlines and people talk about me,
there will be all sorts of things coming out about me.
I've settled everything and concluded that it was done by me.
Whether it's you or me, people would think the same.
If that person who you settled with...
starts to talk nonsense,
I will be done for.
Make an appointment right away.
Tae Hyung, are you okay?
Since when did you start driving again?
Why did you tell her about the accident and bother me with it?
Mother would've known anyway.
She knows everything about you.
I've had enough already. Just shut your mouth.
Don't get me more upset.
Hello, Mr. Representative.
You must have prepared a lot.
The interviewers were saying good things about you.
- I see. - You'll hear good news...
unless something happens.
Thank you.
You don't have to thank me.
Like I said before, watch what you say.
Especially, take good care of the people around you.
Yes. I will do that.
Yes, sir. Thank you.
I need to cover this up.
I need to cover this up no matter what.
Tae Hyung remembers now.
I told him he had hit a person,
and the victim had recovered.
We need to cover this up.
Find someone who's right for the job.
- Okay. - Tae Hyung won't let it go easily.
Get her thoroughly prepared...
with every detail about the accident so there's no problem.
Yes, ma'am.
And I brought this.
(Report on Paternity Test)
(Paternity Test Result)
(Exposition of the Test Result)
(Their genes match 99.99 percent.)
So she really is Tae Hyung's daughter?
You gave her the money, right?
I did, but...
It seemed that she had no intention to leave.
What? Is she just going to take the money then?
Should I go see her again?
You don't have to do that. Just find someone for the job first.
You've been going to school by yourself all along.
What's making you act like a baby?
I want to go to school with Auntie.
Gosh. What should we do?
I want to show her to my friends.
I see.
You should do the dishes from breakfast, okay?
Okay. Have fun at school.
I will.
Let's go.
- Woo Sol. - Hello.
This is my aunt.
Wow, you have an aunt?
Yes. Isn't she pretty?
She is.
Wait for me!
She always says her mom's pretty.
You're much prettier.
Can I invite my friends over next week?
Your friends? Why? Is it a special day?
It's my birthday.
I had her only because I couldn't get rid of her.
- What? - I'll take her to an orphanage.
Dad always organized a party for me,
but now that you moved in, I want to invite lots of friends.
Okay.
I'll...
prepare a party for you.
- You will? - Yes.
That's great!
How many people can I invite? Can I invite ten?
Do whatever you want.
Yes!
He came all the way here and you didn't say anything?
What could I do?
As soon as I saw him, I lost heart.
How could I throw him out when he came to ask about his mom?
I used to be her friend.
He looked glum already.
What'll you do, then?
Will you let Ju Hong date him?
I can't do that.
Why don't you talk to him?
Maybe you can get through to him if you talk to him man to man.
He has a daughter himself. He must understand how you feel.
Why couldn't you say a word if you know that much?
I told you already, that I felt sorry for him.
Sleep for now. Let's think about it later.
You worked all night.
I'll wash this.
I wanted to buy you something nice.
You're scaring me now.
I'll take you somewhere nice if you spare me more time later.
Thanks for the tip on Tae Hyung.
If not for you, both Mom and I would've been clueless.
Don't thank me. I did what I should.
- Let's eat. - Okay.
I don't think I can eat until we're done.
Shall we talk first?
It's about Ji Hwan.
I thought as much.
But we're together.
We're dating.
What shall I do for you?
What will make you back down?
Ji Hwan saved me.
I'm sure you don't know about it,
but Ji Hwan's the reason why I'm alive.
What are you saying?
That's what he means to me.
I knew he was stressed out looking for his mom,
and that he was concerned for Sol, and that's why I waited.
I wanted to date him once he was over the worst.
But you got in the way.
We're not lining up for movie tickets.
What can you do for Ji Hwan?
I can give him everything.
Did you tell him all this?
I will soon.
You'd better not.
No. I'll forge straight ahead.
However nicely Ji Hwan puts it, you'll only get hurt.
Don't pretend to care for me.
When you got into medical school,
you said you got lucky and pretended to be concerned for me.
I'm sick of your showing off.
You hated me for a long time.
Yes. That's why I don't want to lose him.
At least not to you.
I'll do whatever it takes...
to steal him.
Hurry.
What...
Hello.
I'm in my office.
Right now?
How are you doing? Are you in pain?
No. You took such great care of me.
Good. I'm really so sorry.
You didn't cause the accident on purpose.
I don't...
blame anyone anymore.
The insurance paid me a hefty sum,
and you paid me compensation on top of that.
Compensation?
No amount of money can justify the suffering I put you through.
It's fine.
I forgot about it already.
If something else happens, call me at any time.
I'll help as best I can.
Drink your tea.
The insurance paid me a hefty sum,
and you paid me compensation on top of that.
(45NU 9876)
Here.
That car was scrapped.
Run any accidents from nine years ago...
and see how much insurance paid out.
Yes, sir.
Oh, gosh.
(Daehan Gene Testing Lab)
It seemed that she had no intention to leave.
The brazen thing.
She won't budge until I push?
(Missing Person)
I made new flyers with Mom's recent photo.
You have something to tell me, right?
Mr. Baek.
Ji Hwan.
I...
I'm so sorry.
Ji Hwan.
I'm sorry.
What are you trying to say?
- Mr. Baek. - The truth is...
- I... - Mr. Baek.
Ms. Ham.
I guess you were chatting.
Did I interrupt you?
Oh... Not at all.
What brought you here?
Your sister asked to see me.
I believe I told you to leave her alone.
I just told you.
Your sister is the one who's making me come and go.
Mr. Baek.
I'm sorry, but I will visit you later.
Why?
It seems that Mr. Baek has something to tell you.
No, it's nothing.
I have nothing to tell him.
Wait for me at the park.
Leave with your sister.
Go to someplace where Tae Hyung doesn't see you guys.
If you agree to do that,
I will provide all the expenses that you need...
to move and settle in a new place.
I guess you're still an audacious person.
We have no intention...
to leave this place or hide from you.
Your intention doesn't matter.
I'm telling you this for the last time.
Please don't show up like this again.
If you want to stop me, take care of your sister first.
She appeared all of a sudden and demanded to save the kid.
What nonsense is that?
She should've had a healthy one if she was going to have one.
You should watch what you say.
I thought we could speak the language. It's a pity that I was wrong about it.
But you know what? That will not make me...
give up on this matter.
It's the same for me too.
I will protect...
my sister and my daughter.
Are we going home with Dad?
Yes, we are.
I have something to ask Dad.
- Really? - Goodbye.
Hello.
Are you Sol?
Yes, I'm Woo Sol.
Who are you?
Well...
How can I explain who I am?
You should leave now.
Don't worry. I won't stay even if you beg me to stay.
Don't regret it later.
Think what would be the wise choice to make.
Dad, I want some ice cream.
Ice cream?
Yes. Chocolate and strawberry flavor.
Okay. I'll get them right away.
Really? I thought you would say no.
Dad said he'll get me ice cream.
Why are you not answering me?
I asked if you went there to tell him about An Kyung Sun.
Why are you not saying anything?
No, ma'am.
You've made a fuss countless times saying you'll go tell Ji Hwan about it.
Don't you think you've done enough?
It's not going to bring her back from the dead.
And for him too.
It's better for him to believe that his mother is somewhere alive.
What's good for him if he finds out that his mother is dead?
And you, Baek Sang Gu.
If Ji Hwan finds out that you've been pretending like you didn't know...
Do you think he won't do anything about it?
So Ji Hwan went to buy some ice cream?
I will go and surprise him.
Gosh, I'm starving.
Listen to me.
Just forget it and live your life!
It's all over. It's been over for ages.
So stop talking about conscience and live on, okay?
But still...
He's been doing that for nine years now.
I felt so sorry to see him.
Here.
I've put in more than enough.
You should go somewhere and get some fresh air.
(The Secret House)
Dad, how could you do this?
Don't you say another word.
You should cut ties with me then!
- Mr. Woo Ji Hwan is waiting for you. - Who?
I heard...
what you and Ju Hong's father talked about at the park last night.
Amnestic disorder?
If you go through something that's too much to handle,
sometimes your brain intentionally deletes that memory.
Do whatever you want if you want to see the kid get hurt.
You said you like Ju Hong.
Should I tell her that Sol is your daughter?
Gosh, you...
