(Episode 111)
(Cheonha Group Chairman Yoo Ji Ho)
Will you tell me who actually poisoned...
my grandmother?
There's no way I'd have evidence like that.
Ms. An.
Do you think I don't know?
You put the bottle of poison in Ms. Seol's office.
Do you think we're clueless?
Sir.
Why are you still here, Ms. An?
I was going to organize your office before leaving.
I see. You can go home.
- I have a question. - Do you?
It's the first time you're asking me something.
Go ahead.
If I want to open just one of your Pandora's Boxes...
that I should never touch, what would you do?
What a stupid question.
Rather than lose your right-hand man,
I believe it would be wiser to pay me more for each secret I keep.
Is that a threat?
Yes, it is.
This is why you're so easy to work with.
I like how you've made money your master.
However,
I do wonder which box you want to open first.
I haven't decided yet.
Think wisely.
You should go home.
Good evening.
I pay you so much on top of your salary and you want more?
You're a troubleshooter that I can cut loose whenever I want.
Know your place before you make demands.
What's this?
(Report on Ma Hyun Duk's Poisoning)
My gosh.
(MBS In-depth Report, Extra Episode on Ma's Poisoning)
(Ma Hyun Duk, Seol Yu Gyeong, Stella Jang, Ma Se Young Bad Blood)
(She left her daughter in an orphanage and married Joo Bum Seok.)
There must be something.
(Cheonha Group Chairman Yoo Ji Ho)
(Seol and Ma were enemies.)
(Seol poisoned Ma for revenge?)
(What did Ma do that Seol would kill her?)
What's this?
I made Seol Yu Gyeong look guilty for Ma Hyun Duk's murder,
and he'll do an exposé on their long-time grudge?
It's going sideways.
Yoo Ji Ho!
You said everything would be fine if we did as you said.
You said we'd live happily and prosper.
How you do in the future is up to you.
You're happy and prosperous now.
I'm in no mood for wordplay.
Okay, fine. Let's sit down, Se Young.
Calm down.
What are you so afraid of?
We made Seol Yu Gyeong look guilty of Ma Hyun Duk's murder.
It's trial and prison for her.
Her husband is Minister of Justice.
You think that'll happen?
The prosecution has our statements and evidence too.
Even the care home director said Seol Yu Gyeong was guilty.
The poison was found in her office. She can't get out of that.
What if the TV show reveals all about her and Ma Hyun Duk?
Articles say it'll mention me and Hye Soo too.
Oh, that's what you're afraid of.
You're afraid the whole world will find out that Ma Hyun Duk...
swapped you for Hye Soo, and that you went on...
living as Seol Yu Gyeong's daughter despite knowing the truth.
Do something about it.
Her real name's Cha Kang Ju?
She stole Stella Jung's life.
Her mom Seol Yu Gyeong and husband Yoo Ji Ho too.
She even killed Stella Jung's aunt.
She lived a fake life since she was 12? That's just chilling.
Is she not actually Ma Se Young?
Did she set this up before Ms. Ma died?
No. I did not!
I'm Ma Se Young, Ma Hyun Duk's daughter.
I can't let this happen.
(Seoul Western Detention)
Are you here to check?
To see just how miserable I feel and look...
because things went as you and Ji Ho planned?
There's no way you feel miserable.
Things are going just as you planned.
You must need a scapegoat.
Yes.
Cancel the TV show.
That's beyond my control.
You'd better do as I say.
What are you up to now?
Cover up one issue with another.
What does that mean?
Use the exact same trick Ji Ho did.
You want me to go on TV and say Ji Ho's an impostor?
Yes.
Pass the documents I have that prove it to Kim Chang Seok.
That's as good as self-destructing on my part.
And then sue for your rightful share of Ms. Ma's inheritance.
Claim your right as Ma Hyun Duk's adoptive daughter.
I don't get it.
If I sue for my legal share,
it won't just ruin Ji Ho.
I'll be taking what In Ha and Han Byeol should get too.
Han Byeol's still young,
and In Ha doesn't care about the inheritance.
Why are you saying this?
Because I want you to break free from Ji Ho and his manipulative ways.
No.
You want us to part ways...
and fight each other to our deaths.
Isn't what you choose to do most important?
How is the show coming on?
We're getting pressured on all sides.
Some ask what's the point of discussing a dead woman.
It would damage Ms. Ma's reputation,
but what's more important is the truth.
Go ahead with the show.
Is this what Ms. Seol wants too?
If Mr. Kim goes ahead with the show,
your painful past will come out too.
Are you okay with that?
I must bear the price.
In Ha, it'll be hard on you too. Will you be okay?
Yes. I'll try to get through it.
We must unravel our past with Ms. Ma...
if we're to take down Ji Ho and Se Young for good.
I know that.
Thanks for being understanding, In Ha.
This takes a lot of courage on Mom's part.
Please do your best.
I'm well-prepared.
Hello, Director.
(Yusimwon)
Your next installment...
of the In-depth Report is about the late Ms. Ma and Seol Yu Gyeong's...
long-standing bad blood?
It airs the day after tomorrow?
Yes, it does.
Cancel it.
What?
We can't do that.
We already aired a trailer and post-production is done.
Must I sue to have the show suspended for you to get the message?
Any show that tarnishes...
Take us to court, then. Excuse me, but I have work to do.
Chang Seok, wait.
We might lose...
all the commercial deals.
That will only end with you and I being suspended.
Are you okay with a company censoring the media?
Director. Let's live like a journalist should.
What if our career's short but meaningful?
I want my career to be long and meaningless.
You do that, then.
Hey, wait. Chang Seok!
Darn it.
I told you before...
that young reporters these days don't listen.
Not to mention that...
Minister Joo is very interested in the series.
What?
Minister Joo said he was okay with it?
(Ministry of Justice)
Ms. Ma's past as well as mine...
will be mentioned.
That means...
you'll be dragged into it.
You'll become...
fodder for gossip too.
What people think are rumors...
will become facts.
I'll put a stop to the show if you want me to.
That show...
should go on.
I will be disgraced.
But...
I decided that in this life,
I'll be your husband who understands and accepts everything.
- Honey. - Whatever happens,
I'll be your shelter.
I'll prove your innocence and help you...
get the revenge you worked for.
Thank you.
(Ministry of Justice)
Minister Joo, I have something to say.
What could Ms. Ma's daughter have to say...
that she'd visit a lowly minister?
Help me, Dad.
What? "Dad?"
MBS' In-depth Report will mention me and my past.
I want you to cancel the show.
This was my wife's call.
You'll just be mentioned,
but my wife's wounds and shame...
will be aired for all to see.
That's even more reason for you to cancel the show.
The show will reveal the love of your life...
isn't noble or virtuous at all.
What my wife wants is for the truth to be told.
For people to know what Ma Hyun Duk did,
how that changed your life and Hye Soo's,
and the fact that it continues to this day.
So what?
Ma Hyun Duk, the person who should really pay for it all,
is dead.
If that show airs,
out of all that remain living, I'll be ridiculed the most.
I never imagined you'd fear...
ridicule from the public more than a legal sentence.
You should've lived more decently, then.
- Dad. - How am I your dad?
It's "Minister Joo."
Help me, Minister Joo.
I apologize for my past impudence.
I said I didn't,
but deep inside, I still consider you my father.
Please help me.
Get on your feet.
Dad.
I can't help you anymore.
I stopped...
considering you my daughter long ago.
- Dad. - The only person...
I must love and help is Seol Yu Gyeong.
My wife.
Get out.
(Yusimwon)
You look concerned.
No one will help me.
You want to cancel the show that badly?
Of course I do.
The fact that I lived a lie since I was 12 will come out.
- What if... - What if...
it comes out that Ms. Ma adopted you after her Alzheimer's diagnosis?
Yes.
I might be branded with a scarlet letter that my whole life was a lie.
You're right. Silencing just me won't help at all.
Yoo Ji Ho.
Don't act like it's no big deal for you and do something.
I met with Director Lee and persuaded him.
I even threatened to pull all our commercials, but...
- But what? - Nothing worked.
Once people like that think they have a story,
they won't stop for anything.
You really tried to help me?
I did.
Not just that, but...
Chairman Yoo said he wants the show to air.
Yoo Ji Ho? Why?
I don't know exactly,
but wouldn't it be to keep you in check...
now that you're Ms. Ma's adoptive daughter?
Don't worry too much.
I'll call Director Lee again...
and put pressure on him to cancel the show.
Thanks.
Director Lee? Go ahead with the show.
But there's one other topic I need you to cover.
Say your source was Jung Hye Soo and not me.
This isn't a promise.
This is a demand that I need you to fulfill.
MBS' In-depth Report.
Today,
I'll cover the long-standing bad blood...
between the late Ma Hyun Duk...
and Seol Yu Gyeong who was...
recently charged with her poisoning.
Ma Hyun Duk's husband Chairman Yoo Hyung Seok...
had a daughter called Yoo Min Joo from his first wife Son Young Mi.
Yoo Min Joo is Seol Yu Gyeong's real name.
Ma Hyun Duk was Chairman Yoo Hyung Seok's second wife,
and they had a son, Yoo Min Sung.
The year Yoo Min Joo turned eight,
Ma Hyun Duk left her at an amusement park.
Yoo Min Joo grew up a vagrant,
and one day, she heard Ma Hyun Duk...
had poisoned her father Yoo Hyung Seok.
Ma Hyun Duk had used psilocybin, a magic mushroom powder.
Yoo Min Joo changed her name to Seol Yu Gyeong,
and as a university student, to get revenge,
she became the tutor of Yoo In Ha, Ma Hyun Duk's grandson.
She kept her intentions hidden,
and worked loyally as Ma's right-hand woman and secretary.
Meanwhile, Ma used Seol Yu Gyeong...
to satisfy her desire, ambition, and greed.
Seol was in love...
with a man she was yet to marry,
and they had Jung Mi So, a four-year-old daughter.
At the time,
a young prosecutor was investigating Cheonha Group for corruption.
That prosecutor was Joo Bum Seok, and to win him over,
Ma Hyun Duk had Mi So killed...
and Seol's lover Jung Ho Jin's death was made to look like an accident.
Seol Yu Gyeong was duped into marrying Joo Bum Seok,
and the same happened to Joo Bum Seok.
Yu Gyeong.
Turn your life around. Legally, you're still single.
I can't abandon my family.
Not ever.
Mi So!
Mi So! No!
Mi So!
Jung Mi So who supposedly died in a fire...
grew up in an orphanage and met Seol Yu Gyeong when she was 12.
But Ma Hyun Duk's evil deeds continued.
She replaced Jung Hye Soo, the actual Jung Mi So...
with Cha Kang Ju, the orphanage director's daughter.
Cha Kang Ju is Joo Se Young...
who is now Ma Hyun Duk's adoptive daughter Ma Se Young.
Even when she was Cha Kang Ju,
she knew she wasn't Seol Yu Gyeong's daughter Jung Mi So.
But she pleaded with her mom and Ma,
and had them swap Jung Hye Soo's DNA results with her own.
Oh, wow. Kim Chang Seok really is going all out.
Do you think this is the end of Ma and Seol's bad blood?
No.
Is there more?
It regards Ma's grandson Yoo Ji Ho.
This information is from Ms. Seol herself.
She said that she...
turned Kang Ji Ho into Yoo Ji Ho.
Let me show you some documents.
This is the real DNA test report...
comparing Yoo Min Sung and Yoo Ji Ho's DNA that Seol swapped.
I believe this is the most damning evidence...
that Yoo Ji Ho is Kang Ji Ho.
Yoo Min Sung, the man Yoo Ji Ho claimed is his father...
had azoospermia which means he was unable to father children.
(Cheonha Group Chairman Yoo Ji Ho)
What's going on, Director Lee?
Seol Yu Gyeong's in prison. Where did you get that certificate?
We got it from Director Jung Hye Soo.
Jung Hye Soo?
Darn it!
Director Jung said on her live stream...
I'm not the only one that got exposed...
for being a fake.
That goes for you too, Ji Ho.
But...
That's the end of a coward.
We believe it's credible.
They're having a field day, aren't they?
Darn you all!
Hye Soo, you dare mess with me?
Since then, Yoo Ji Ho...
lived a life of lies and deceit...
Well done, Se Young.
Now An Hee Young will have no choice but to make a move.
Just as I planned.
Should we put up with someone who continuously distorts the truth...
to satisfy his own greed...
just because he's rich?
If you betray me,
I'll stab you in the back.
We must no longer let someone cover up the truth.
The bad blood and secrets...
of the Cheonha family...
Jung Hye Soo.
Did you give MBS the medical certificate that says...
Yoo Min Sung's infertile?
What nonsense is that?
A member of staff said it was you.
What? It wasn't me.
It wasn't you?
The thing is, though,
the tricks you always used.
Betrayal, double-crossing.
Don't you think someone close by...
gave up my name while trying to get rid of you?
"Someone?"
I wonder why you two first came to mind.
Believe whatever you want.
I don't know who tipped them off,
but they reported the truth.
It's exhilarating.
Keep your mouth shut.
Who could've sent it in?
Was it An Hee Young?
Or Ma Se Young?
Watch the rest of the show, Kang Ji Ho.
This is a gift from me.
Assuming that the tip is true and Yoo Ji Ho isn't Ma's grandson,
there's another intriguing story.
Watch this video.
(Vice-chairwoman Seol Yu Gyeong)
Chairman Yoo's secretary An Hee Young...
is planting a bottle of poison in Seol Yu Gyeong's office.
Do you have time to waste arguing with me?
This could prove Chairman Yoo...
was directly involved in Ma's poisoning.
(Chairman Yoo Ji Ho)
How did it feel to appear on TV?
I meant to come and see you.
What's this?
Here's my resignation.
They should get it soon.
The original of what's in that flash drive.
Have this, Grandma.
I brought your favorite.
- How do you have this? - My In Ha...
knows just what I like.
Thank you. My goodness.
What a lovely color.
Just like a jewel.
It tastes good.
In Ha, what did you...
give me?
What do you think? It's poison, Grandma.
It's the last gift from In Ha.
In...
Ji Ho, was it you?
Did you...
give me poison to kill me?
You should've accepted me. Why did you care so much about blood?
I didn't want to poison you. It breaks my heart.
You fool...
It'll be over soon.
You...
Save me.
(Game of Witches)
What are you doing, An Hee Young?
I'll decide depending on the amount.
Do you have the original?
Arrest An Hee Young immediately.
Yes, sir.
It's time to get rid of you, An Hee Young.
Proof of Ms. Ma's poisoning? Bring it in right away.
Yoo Ji Ho, you don't have much time left.
