(Episode 21)
The records are vague.
Only the dates and the amount of money he got from Chairman Kang are on it.
It doesn't have anything past the recent few years.
For now, let's focus on breaking apart my father and Ma Dae Geun.
We'll look into what they have done step by step.
Will you really be okay?
Have you forgotten?
Didn't we swear not to become cowards?
Soon Young. You know what to do when I say "evidence," right?
Yes, I do.
Tae Poong. Make sure you speak loud and clear.
Okay?
When this man tried to kill Soon Young,
he said someone in our family ordered him to do it.
What? I never said that!
Don't lie!
Stop talking nonsense!
Do you have evidence?
Evidence?
Yes, evidence.
If you have it, show it to me now.
That evidence is right here.
Oh, my.
What?
What will you do now with me still alive,
Detective Ma?
Everyone, listen to me carefully.
Twenty years ago,
that man tried to kill me.
I was on the verge of death but miraculously made it out alive,
thanks to the skies.
You heard her, right?
That was clearly attempted murder.
Who are you trying to fool?
Why would I have tried to kill you?
Beats me, but I'd love to know why.
It's not too late to come clean and beg for mercy.
You told us Soon Young had died in a car accident.
That was an absolute lie, wasn't it, Mr. Ma?
Darn it.
All along, we were totally fooled...
by Mr. Ma's lie.
I can't believe you are alive.
Welcome back, Soon Young.
What about...
Ba Ram?
Is Ba Ram also alive?
She died in an accident.
Because that man had taken Ba Ram's death certificate,
I couldn't deliver the news.
Is that so?
But you see,
I can't accept your every word as the truth.
Even the fact that Mr. Ma had tried to kill you.
I can't wrap my head around it.
Mr. Kang.
How could you not believe me?
Gosh, but Baek San is right.
If you were alive, why didn't you come by earlier?
And if Mr. Ma had tried to kill you,
you should've come and reported to us right away.
She's right.
Who would believe you after 20 years out of the blue like this?
I couldn't come because...
Why are you doing this?
I didn't do anything wrong.
It was someone up high.
That's all you need to know.
That man had told me someone in this family...
wanted me dead on the day he pushed me down.
What?
He made it clear that...
someone up high had ordered him to kill Ba Ram.
But since Ba Ram was already dead, he had tried to kill me instead.
Mr. Kang, Ms. Nam,
or Ms. Park.
I didn't know who the order was from. So how was I supposed to come here?
How dare you...
bring up our family in your dirty work?
No one ordered me to do it.
- I did it on my own accord. - You jerk!
Why did you do it? Tell me!
I was blinded by the money.
I was only trying to steal the bundle of money.
You scumbag!
You heard him, right?
You've had the wrong idea about us.
That son of a gun!
Did you believe in every word that man said?
On your own accord?
Fine. If that's your side of the story,
let's see how it ends over there.
- Where? - The police station.
Hold it.
Let's just end things here, Mr. Yoon.
- Father! - Chairman Kang?
Thanks to you,
I had gotten my hands on the ledger that could've aroused suspicion.
I even found out that...
this jerk was framing my family.
But this is between Mr. Ma and me.
So I'll take care of it.
But what had happened to Soon Young...
If Mr. Ma changes his story at the police station,
what will you do?
Will you, Mr. Yoon,
take responsibility if he brings up my family again?
Who are you threatening right now?
I'm not threatening him.
I'm thinking critically.
What can you possibly do with Soon Young's words alone?
Are you telling us to leave that jerk alone?
I will never...
overlook...
what Mr. Ma did.
But I will not allow anyone...
to argue with me...
over my matters.
So...
go back now.
Father!
I'm sorry to call you out on your day off.
No. I was happy to get your call.
Although, Tae Poong's call would have made me happier.
Did something happen?
It's the proposal for Le Blanc's soon-to-be-released color cosmetics.
It seems you have some power. Can you cover it in advance?
(2022 Development Team 1's Color Cosmetic Line Proposal)
(Table of Contents)
Seo Yeon told me she was working on this too.
Can't you report that it's under development?
I'll make a fair report after I look into it more.
Just do it, will you? Stop acting like you're all clean.
By the way, Jo Yi.
Is Jung Mo Yeon your mother's real name?
Did she ever change it?
No, it's her real name. She never had it changed.
Why do you ask?
You see...
CEO Jung was the spitting image of someone I knew.
Oh, my. Do they look alike that much?
I want to know who that is.
Do you have a twin aunt?
No. I don't even have a single aunt.
So that means they simply look alike.
And that she's in no way related to Ba Ram's real mother.
Soon Young. Are you okay?
Yes. I'm leaving now.
My legs were shaking so much.
I'm waiting for you out front.
Come out soon.
Why did you come all the way here?
I'll be right out. Wait just a little bit.
How dare you?
Soon Young. What's going on?
Did he beg for forgiveness or something?
Don't be weak.
No leniency, remember?
Why would I beg for forgiveness?
Do you think you'll be safe after what you did to me?
Soon Young. You brought the thing I mentioned, right?
What?
Right. It's right here.
Here.
(Last Will and Testament)
I wrote this will for the police to read...
in case I was killed in an accident.
It says I will never commit suicide...
and that if I die,
(If I have died of a sudden accident, please arrest Ma Dae Geun first.)
Ma Dae Geun is the one responsible.
You see your name here, right?
Did you take a good look, old man?
If something happens to Soon Young, the police will look for your first.
You crazy bastards.
You're not that smart, are you old man?
Did you really think that was the only copy?
Look. Another copy is right there.
Hello, Mr. Ma.
You remember me, right?
We ran into each other at the office a few times.
We finally get to officially meet.
I see you weren't exactly normal either.
We both get paid by Chairman Kang and work for him,
don't we?
You should speak more carefully.
How is that the same thing?
There's a difference between dirty money and clean money.
Anyway, you're in trouble now.
You know my father, right?
He might let go of the thing with Soon Young,
but the transaction records...
That's a different story.
You little punk.
Just you wait...
Hi, Chairman Kang. Yes, sir.
Okay, sir. I'll be right there.
Yes, sir.
I'm sure they'll deny it.
I can't imagine...
that they'll just say, "I did it."
I'm sure they'll deny it,
but that's okay.
We're not trying to get them to confess.
Instead, nobody will be able to harm you.
Not Ma Dae Geun.
Not anybody.
- Soon Young. - Why did you come all the way here?
I was worried.
- Oh, no. - Oh, my. Soon Young. Are you okay?
Oh, I'm fine.
I was just really anxious before.
Ma Dae Geun won't be able to harm you again.
Oh, my.
I'm sorry, sir.
Chairman Kang. Please forgive me.
Mr. Ma.
What was the name of the chicken soup place...
at the edge of Mount Bukhan?
What?
I'm craving...
that chicken soup today.
Should we have lunch there together while it's on my mind?
Just the two of us. What do you say?
Chairman Kang. I've committed a grave sin.
Mr. Ma.
What's wrong?
You also liked that place. It's nice and quiet.
Isn't it the perfect place...
to have your last meal?
Please don't kill me, sir.
Please let it slide this one time.
You committed a grave sin,
but you don't want to pay for it, do you?
You...
Why did Mr. Ma say such a thing?
He's causing so much trouble.
Someone ordered him to kill someone?
That's absurd.
I can't believe it either.
How could he say such a scary thing?
Who in this family would kill someone?
Who might do such a thing?
Stop looking over there this instant.
I can look wherever I want.
You said Ma Dae Geun was lying.
Do you still suspect Baek San?
I see.
You're trying to put it all on him, aren't you?
I'm trying to do what to who?
You're the one who did it,
and now you're trying to frame Baek San. Isn't that right?
I thought it was strange that you were so emotional...
when it came to things with Ba Ram.
Gosh. That is ridiculous.
Who's the person that kicked Ba Ram out?
I even gave Soon Young some money...
when I asked her to take Ba Ram.
Why would I try to kill them?
It would make more sense...
for you to try to kill them...
with you being so dramatic.
What are you talking about?
What was that about?
What about Ba Ram and Soon Young?
- Come on in. - Hey.
- Mom. - Soon Young.
Oh, Ttal Ki.
Oh, my precious girl.
We don't have to run away anymore.
Oh, Soon Young. Good job.
Gosh. This was all...
thanks to Ba Ram. She's so smart.
Thank you for helping Soon Young stay here.
It's nothing.
It was only possible because Soon Young was brave.
So Tae Poong already knew that Soon Young was alive?
I thought something was weird...
when he came home the other day and mentioned Ba Ram.
He was poking around while hiding what he knew about Soon Young.
What in the world did Mr. Ma do?
He said that Soon Young and Ba Ram had died in a car accident,
but he told Soon Young that someone in our family ordered him to kill them.
How could he tell such a lie?
Are you sure it's a lie?
What?
Are you sure nobody in our family ordered him?
Have you gone insane?
Who would do such a scary thing?
Don't say something like that.
Gosh.
Father is the only one who would do such a thing.
Father tried to kill Ba Ram.
Why?
About Ma Dae Geun...
He said no one in my family ordered him to do it.
Do you believe him?
We should trust him for now.
We can't suspect them without any evidence.
I can't trust them, and I'm part of the family.
How do you trust them so much?
I want to trust Chairman Kang.
When Father passed away and I was alone,
Chairman Kang was by my side.
He also supported me while I was in America.
That's why I'm praying that Ma Dae Geun's records are false...
and that Ma Dae Geun's confession is true.
Truly.
I don't know if we did the right thing today.
We ensured Soon Young's safety.
We've achieved our goal for today.
If...
Ma Dae Geun's confession turns out to be a lie,
we might have put Ba Ram in danger.
Whether it's Ma Dae Geun or my family,
they will try to find her one way or the other.
What do you mean?
Ba Ram is already dead.
I'm still lost.
I can't trust Ma Dae Geun's confession...
or Soon Young's story that Ba Ram died...
until I see things for myself.
Kang Tae Poong.
I can't get rid of this anxiousness. Let me go check again.
Hey. Where are you going? Kang Tae Poong!
Let's move dad's books to the storage room now.
When moving back from England,
I only kept your dad's favorite books and threw the rest away.
I want to leave these books close to me.
Mom!
It's Tae Poong.
Are you that happy?
Answering it right away will make me look desperate, right?
One, two, three, four.
Hello? Yes, Tae Poong.
Hold on a minute.
Goodness.
You're practically begging to see me, so it can't be helped.
I'll try to make some time.
I'm going on a date.
Organize these alone, Mom. Sorry.
Gosh.
There's no stopping her.
Goodness gracious.
Do you know how long it has been since we last met?
Why didn't you pick up your phone?
Jo Yi. You're a capable worker, right?
Of course.
I'm light-footed and righteous with broad connections.
I, Hong Jo Yi, find the truths,
even the ones hidden deep.
Let me borrow that ability.
Can you look for someone?
Are you acknowledging me right now, Tae Poong?
Tell me who it is.
I can find anyone aside from your first love.
Remember what I told you?
That I didn't want to become a shameful brother to my younger sister.
Yes, I do.
I was so jealous of Ba Da back then.
Besides Ba Da,
I had another younger sister.
What?
Everyone is telling me she's dead.
I have to believe that too.
But I can't stop from getting my weird hopes up.
What kind of a younger sister was she?
My younger sister was...
To sum up what you just told me,
there are only testimonies...
but no hard evidence that she's dead.
I'll find your younger sister for you.
(November 15, Factory Manager Kim In Chul, 10,000 dollars.)
Back then, there was a problem with Le Blanc over the facial mask.
Don't tell me...
- Oh, my. - What?
What happened to your face?
Oh, this?
I fell in the storage room.
This is an important matter.
Back when you injured your face...
It was connected to President Kang, wasn't it?
Were you threatened or...
No, it was nothing like that.
Something like that never happened.
I'll help you if you have experienced an unjust incident.
So please tell me.
If you're going to keep making wild speculation,
don't bother coming to see me.
And don't entrust my factory with your products.
Sir!
Gosh.
Why is Baek San cooped up...
in his study all day long?
Didn't Secretary Oh go into his room a while ago?
There must be a lot those two have to plot.
The betrayal of his beck and call, Mr. Ma.
The chaotic return of Soon Young, who we thought was dead.
With the number of fishy things going on,
there must be a lot to chat about.
- That mouth of yours. - Oh, dear.
For goodness' sake.
By the way,
do you both not know who it was?
What do you mean?
The one who ordered Mr. Ma to kill Ba Ram and Soon Young.
- Soon Young was lying. - Mr. Ma was lying.
See? You can't even pinpoint who was lying.
I think...
the one who asked Mr. Ma was...
- What? Are you suspecting me? - Are you suspecting me?
More than that, we need to confirm whether or not Ba Ram is alive.
Soon Young is alive. Ba Ram could be too.
- Oh, gosh. She can't be. - No, she can't be.
Why not?
Are you all human beings? How could you say such a thing?
What on earth did Ba Ram do to you?
How can you wish she was dead? She didn't do anything wrong.
Gosh. We never wished she was dead.
Don't you feel guilty?
Don't you remember who made her leave this house?
Goodness. Stop blaming someone else.
That was her destiny.
How could you, Grandma?
Ba Ram was your granddaughter.
You don't know anything. Just be quiet.
Ba Ram wasn't Grandma's granddaughter.
- She was... - Kang Ba Da!
a total stranger who wasn't related to us by blood.
Ba Da! Shut your mouth at once!
Why should I? What I said wasn't wrong.
We were strangers, weren't we?
How was she a stranger? Just how?
Fine. Since we're on the topic, you should know too.
Kang Ba Da!
- Kang Ba Ram... - Seriously, you little...
Kang Ba Ram...
Goodness.
Why did you hit me?
Are you worried your one and only son might get hurt?
All you care about is him. But what about me? I get hurt too.
I can't do it anymore.
Being your kind daughter.
Kang Tae Poong. Listen carefully.
Kang Ba Ram, who you are crazy about,
is in no way related to us by blood.
Understood?
She wasn't even Father's daughter.
Kang Ba Da!
Goodness.
What are you saying?
I took care of everything as you ordered.
Great work. You may leave.
Tell me, Father.
About what?
Ba Ram.
Was she not your daughter?
No.
She wasn't my daughter.
So stop bugging me...
with some stranger's matter.
No.
No! It can't be true!
No!
You punk! This again?
Should I lock you up in a mental hospital again?
I picked it up on the way here.
It looked like your star-shaped birthmark.
Ba Ram. Kang Ba Ram.
I was able to live...
because you were my sister.
But now they're saying you're not my sister.
How am I supposed to live?
(Vengeance of the Bride)
Tae Poong won't be able to come to work for a while.
Everyone, get out. I don't need anything, so get out!
- Do you think I won't be able to? - Oh, honey.
Ba Ram's alive?
He'd be happy to hear that his younger sister was still alive.
Here's a list of orphanages that Ba Ram may have stayed at.
Were you in a fire when you were young?
Eun Seo Yeon. I think I love you.
