(Episode 18)
How come...
No way.
It's impossible.
Please confirm her identity.
Min Young.
How could you...
Why are you lying here?
Why?
Min Young.
Min Young...
Isn't it pretty?
I took it off when I got tested. You can have it.
You can't die like this.
What about Sol?
What about the rest of us?
Min Young! Please wake up.
(Police Station)
Forensics is still working on the site.
It's hard to say if it was murder or suicide,
but it looks like the victim fell to her death.
That can't be.
Ms. Woo's wallet and phone were nearby.
She texted you her last message,
then turned off her phone.
(Bye, Ji Hwan.)
As of right now, we can't find anything that points to murder.
We assume it was suicide.
That can't be.
She has a daughter who needs surgery.
She even prepared a birthday party for the girl.
Let's see what the autopsy report says.
Oh, my gosh.
Why are you here this early?
I didn't come in early. I didn't go home.
You spent the night at the office?
Did you look up all the local social gatherings and organizations?
I'll send you the file right away.
- Do you have everything? - Yes.
A suit, a shirt, socks, and underwear, one of everything.
What about his toner and cologne?
Oh. I'll rush upstairs and get them.
She never gets everything on the first trip.
I'll be off, Father.
He worked all night?
It must be good to be young.
When a kid stays up all night to work,
shouldn't the mom be heartbroken?
Sometimes I think...
she's more of a trainer than a mom.
Whether her son works all night or not,
all she wants is for him to be successful.
The child who is born to such a mother...
must overcome their own fate.
About Ms. Ham.
I guess she's Mr. Nam's mother,
but is she really Tae Hee's birth mother?
What are you saying?
She openly criticizes and mistreats Ms. Nam.
I wondered if Ms. Nam was adopted.
- You be quiet. - It's not true, is it?
But then, it couldn't be true.
Normal people usually don't have...
any secrets about their birth.
Right, sir?
Why won't you bring me my morning pills?
Oh, dear. I forgot.
Your diabetes and blood pressure pills.
I'll bring them right away.
You blew them all out.
Happy birthday, Sol.
Thank you.
Oh, I bought you some books.
Thank you.
They look like fun.
I'm glad you like them.
I enjoyed all the books you got me.
Where's dad?
Does he have a case?
Yes. He's working on something important. Something big.
Is Auntie home?
What?
It's my birthday.
Dad isn't here. Auntie isn't here either.
What do you want me to do?
Do you want me to tell off your dad and aunt?
No. I like my auntie.
(Suicide by jumping)
(Coast Guard still searching)
(Investment trust)
You had that much work you couldn't even come home?
Your grandfather was so worried you didn't get any sleep.
You've got sunken eyes just overnight.
- Change your clothes. - You can leave them.
Is something wrong? You look terrible.
Get out so I can work!
I told Tae Hee to bring you your clean clothes.
Leave your dirty ones in a corner.
Why is he so agitated?
Where is it?
Darn it.
Where did I lose it?
(45th Judicial Training Institute Admission Ceremony)
What are you doing?
I came to get the papers I asked you to sign...
and decided to wait for you.
Do you want that seat?
Do you want to sit there?
Well, of course I do.
I dream of being a great CEO like you.
It sounds like you want to take it as soon as possible.
You don't want to do that, right?
- What? - What is it that...
you don't like about me?
That's enough.
If you keep having your way,
I won't let you slide even though you're my daughter.
Do you even think of me as your daughter?
Just say it if you don't want to be my daughter.
I'll treat you like a stranger the moment you say so.
You've decorated the room like this. But why would you suddenly do that?
You had a hard time giving birth to Sol.
But you haven't heard "Mom" from Sol.
You won't be able to see her grow up.
I feel so bad for you, Min Young.
(Closed due to a personal matter. Call the number below if urgent.)
(May 4 to May 6)
What can it be?
Jin Ho. This is Nam Tae Hee.
I'm at the restaurant.
But both here and Ji Hwan's office are closed.
What did you say?
I should've held back for only a few days.
I've said all the harsh things to her.
And this happened to her after that. What do I do now?
Even if her life was so tough and rough,
she should've thought about her brother.
Why did she have to do that? She was still young.
What about Ju Hong?
She must be with Ji Hwan.
I don't know.
I can't tell her not to go see him.
You should tell her that if you can.
Goodness. He's so unfortunate.
His mom has gone missing. And now his sister is dead.
How can this happen?
By the way,
was it the US or somewhere else?
I'm talking about Min Young's mother.
Do you think we should find her and let her know about this?
- Nonsense! - What do you mean?
She's still her mother.
She's not going to know about her daughter being dead.
How can I do nothing about it?
She should be the one looking for her daughter.
Why would we look for her?
And how are you going to explain it to Ji Hwan?
- Maybe you're right. - Just don't say anything about it.
Was she sick?
That's not what had happened.
I heard that she threw herself at an abandoned building.
She threw herself?
Yes. It was last night.
If it was last night...
Is something wrong? You look terrible.
Get out so I can work!
So you're saying that...
the sister of the lawyer of the seolleongtang place is dead?
My goodness.
His mother is missing. And now, this happened to his sister?
How can this happen?
I'm home.
Did you hear that?
Lawyer Woo's sister is dead.
Is that something I should know about?
You shouldn't talk like that about other people's ordeal.
I'll go to my room.
Ji Hwan has no relatives.
I'd like to suggest we help him out with the funeral, Grandpa.
Why would we help him out?
- Gosh, you startled me. - Don't do anything unnecessary.
Tae Hee.
Send him enough condolence money.
Help him find a cemetery.
Grandpa.
Forget about personal feelings for now.
You need to help others when they are going through a hard time.
What happened?
Did you know that Woo Min Young was dead?
- Tae Hyung. - I'm tired.
You were...
at your office yesterday, right?
You should go to your room. I need to take some rest.
Did you...
- You didn't, right? - What are you thinking?
How can you say that to me?
Right. I shouldn't have.
Of course not.
Don't ever talk to me...
about that woman.
Okay. Get some rest. You must be tired.
What?
Tae Hyung...
Tae Hyung did that?
I'm sorry.
Are you out of your mind?
You should've stopped him no matter what.
Tell me everything from first to last.
Don't leave out anything and tell me what happened.
At the company's parking lot,
Mr. Nam got Woo Min Young in my car and...
At the company?
Are you saying she came to the company?
You don't have to worry. I took care of the CCTV footage.
There's nothing left at the scene that will cause any problem.
I've settled everything.
Why did you do it? What were you thinking?
You should've discussed it with me.
What were you thinking and did that?
Your nomination is coming up. Why would you do that?
Why did you have to take it that far?
You and I were about to go down because of her.
What should I have done?
What you did to Woo Ji Hwan's mother.
She knew it.
She found out about everything.
What?
This was going to happen anyway.
You would've done it if I hadn't done it myself.
- Tae Hyung. - No.
You did this too, right?
Why are you looking at me like that?
You said you will protect me.
You said you will get rid of everything that's in my way.
So you did this too.
If something happens...
Since you did all this,
you're responsible for it, okay?
The autopsy didn't find any evidence of murder.
(Late Woo Min Young)
Why did you do it?
You should've lived happily with Sol.
Why would you leave me like this?
You just started to make eye contact with Sol.
It hasn't been a while since you started to have a chat with Sol.
You've been all alone by yourself for nine years.
It has been only days...
that we were together like a family.
What do I tell Mom...
if she asks about you?
Why...
Why did my poor sister die?
Why?
(Late Woo Min Young)
Why...
Don't get sick where you are.
Don't suffer.
Rest in peace.
Don't worry about Ji Hwan and Sol.
I'll keep our promise.
(Seohyun University Hospital)
What case is keeping Dad so busy?
I don't know much about it,
but I think it's almost over.
Did you miss your dad a lot?
Yes. He'd gone on a business trip before,
but he came back the next day.
I see.
But it's okay now that Auntie lives with us.
I can wait for Dad with her.
Can she not come today either?
- What? - I called her many times.
Her phone's still turned off.
Oh, I see.
She must've been bothered that I'm always sick.
No. It's not like that.
Then why won't she take my calls?
Why did Ms. Ham come to see you?
Did she give you an envelope too?
(Suicide by jumping)
(High school student jumps)
Come in.
I heard the news.
How was the funeral?
I found this among her belongings.
You must be sad and tired.
And you still came all the way here.
You could've considered it a gift from me.
I don't need it.
You could buy your kid something.
You and your bravado.
You're still so immature.
Do you know...
how much pain my sister lived in?
You have a point.
Had I known this would happen,
I shouldn't have spoken so harshly.
I hope you understand I spoke as a mother.
What?
You drove her to the edge of a cliff and you want me to understand?
Are you saying your sister died because of us?
Did you forget what you and your son did to her?
She brought it upon herself.
Will you shut your mouth?
She dug her own grave.
What could I have done?
She looked around a bit too late and realized...
there was no way out.
Other than death.
My sister had no reason to die.
What about a reason to live?
Take a step back and see how things look.
Do you think she had a reason to live?
Sol.
My sister had Sol.
A kid she'd abandoned and ignored for nine years?
- Whose fault was that? - Calm down.
I'm saying this to help you forget it all and move on.
Stop wasting your time on your mom and sister.
Just live your life.
Shut it!
Everyone will say there's no way she would've taken her own life.
To comfort you.
But that's not true.
Your sister would've wanted to die.
You don't know enough to say that.
Do you even know what kind of thoughts she had in mind to live each day?
Don't you ever...
tarnish my sister's memory with your slanderous tongue.
I won't forgive you.
It was all taken care of?
Yes. The written will was taken into consideration.
The recording was deleted and reported to be too damaged.
Was anything left behind at the scene?
Did you lose something?
You shouldn't go there until the police are completely off the case.
Don't lecture me!
I apologize.
Get out.
Sir. They took down the yellow tape.
It looks like they're closing the case.
- Do you need anything else? - No, that'll do.
Though we didn't see eye-to-eye,
he was a classmate and I wanted to help him out.
I think I've done enough.
Good job.
Gosh.
A guy who rarely answers a question...
volunteered all that information? What for?
Oh, shoot!
What on earth...
Turn away and go.
(The Secret House)
We happen to share a huge secret.
I dug as best I could but couldn't find a weakness.
If this is what you'll do, don't visit Sol again.
Who are you to say that?
You almost traumatized her.
Tell her to come back.
I won't give Auntie a hard time.
You talk to her.
What do you mean?
Perhaps Min Young met with Sol's dad that day.
I can't shake that idea.
Mr. Woo?
I brought something worth a lot.
Dashcam footage?
