Cheon Yeong Bo killed my parents.
You say you don't know Cheon Yeong Bo very well?
Originally I should've been Cheon Ui Seon, right?
How is Chairman Jo Sang Gook to deal with? The Shadow!
The Shadow?
I'm a firm believer that personal sacrifice is acceptable for the sake of the greater good.
Cheon Yeong Bo, you are an unforgivable person.
No one has the right to judge me!
Episode 18
If you're saying "Shadow", are you referring to a post-traumatic memory of the torture?
No, it's not that. Rather the torturer that Kang Hee Soo
most feared was referred to as the 'Shadow'.
Shadow...
Yes. The most dominant thought in Kang Hee Soo's head
was the fear of the Shadow.
Did you hear any personal details about the Shadow?
No.
But if I were to bring up something notable,
he (Kang) was extremely afraid of the sound of a ball-point pen.
Every time he was tortured, the sound was repeated.
Was that the Shadow's habit?
No. Every time the Shadow tortured him,
there was someone watching.
Are you saying there were two torturers?
I believe so.
It's very unfortunate.
I was hoping that Mr. Kang Hee Soo had found peace by now.
I also thought he might have found his son as well.
A son?
...cannot connect to the...
Turn yourself in for your wife's sake.
And if you testify against Chairman Jo, then we can take that into consideration and...
I couldn't even imagine meeting Kang Hee Soo's son in this manner.
Who do you think killed your father?
The one who killed your father is Han Yeong Man, the father of your friend,
the one you trust absolutely, Han Yi Soo.
What crap are you pulling?
It's the truth. I saw it in person.
Stop spewing crap!
The one who tortured your father is also Han Yeong Man.
Do you think that sort of childish lies will
be accepted by me?
That guy there is Han Yeong Man, who was also my pupil.
I can't believe your words. I won't believe.
If my words were lies, you would have died here already.
We have self-destruction (classic mistake made in Korean chess) at hand.
Please find a person who went to the same college
and was imprisoned together with Kang Hee Soo, within the Student Movement Activists' List.
Yes, now, please.
The person who killed your father was Han Yeong Man.
Your friend, the one you trust absolutely, Han Yi Soo. His father.
The one that interrogated your father is,
also Han Yeong Man, that guy.
What gimmick is this?
I guess you've found the photo.
How do you feel, after seeing the photo?
If you wanted to shock me, you've succeeded. But nothing more.
Whatever it may be, Choi Byeong Gi was working under you.
And, it'd have been quite normal for them to be acquainted.
I believe I advised you once.
No one is ever completely innocent or perfect enough to judge another.
That's not something a person, like you, should utter.
You should've listened to my advice earlier.
I don't know what nasty trick you're planning, but it won't work on me.
Did you say you'll find the evidence to prove it?
Go right ahead.
I am full of anticipation for
what kind of evidence you'll unveil.
I'm happy today, Yi Soo.
On this day, I have finally received forgiveness.
When I think of the pain I may cause you two,
I feel so sorry and
my heart aches.
It'd be best to bury the past for your father's sake.
Yoon Byeong Oh? Are you talking about Robert Yoon?
That's right.
He was arrested at the same time as Kang Hee Soo for violating the National Security Law.
Just what is this about?
One moment, please?
Professor Yune?
I'm Jo Hae Woo who came to see you before.
I'm sorry to bother you at late hour. But can we meet now, please?
You are Professor Yoon Byeong Oh, right?
Who are you?
Is your torturer
in this photo?
Who are you ?
Please answer me.
Are these both
known to you?
There's only one face I know.
Which is it ?
[indicating Han Yeong Man]
Friend.
What is it about?
I have something to ask you.
You knew Kang Hee Soo, right?
We're from the same university. Why are you asking that?
Is the "Shadow" the person in this picture?
No.
It's not him?
That's right.
Please look at the picture again.
I would recognize his appearance even if I meet him on the streets.
It's a face that I never forgot even for a moment.
Are you saying that you haven't met this person before?
Before I came here,
I saw a picture of the Shadow and this person together.
What are you trying to say?
Someone showed me this picture,
asking who the "Shadow" was.
What happened?
Do you have soju?
Could the person who visited Professor Yoon be Yi Soo?
I don't think so.
The person Yi Soo is looking for is Choi Byeong Gi, not the Shadow.
The Shadow doesn't have a direct link to this case, other than the fact that he tortured Kang Hee Soo.
That's true.
If there's someone looking for that person too,
I'm thinking it could be Kang Hee Soo's son.
I will look for Kang Hee Soo's son and the Shadow.
Okay.
I think I'll have to pay a visit to Geochang.
I think I have to look into someone.
And.. how is Yi Hyeon doing?
Well, she's a little frustrated since she can't go out.
I feel so sorry
that I can't go visit to see her.
You did nothing wrong, Prosecutor Jo.
I'm the one who's worried about you.
Don't worry about me.
I know that the one suffering the most is you, Prosecutor Jo.
Honestly, if it were me, I wouldn't be able to endure it like you.
I was worried because you didn't answer your phone.
What happened?
I didn't hear it. But why did you call?
I thought of asking for a favor. But it seems it would be better for me to look into it myself.
What is it? I'll look it up for you.
No, I can look it up myself.
Did Yi Hyeon get home safely?
Yes.
It's still fortunate since Yi Hyeon has been enduring it well.
And because you're by Yi Hyeon's side, I feel relieved.
Do you remember the day you came to me for the first time, Hyung?
I had run away from the orphanage, and wasn't even going to school.
I cared about nothing, so I was living recklessly.
But that's when you came to look for me.
And you just started beating me up.
At the time, you said this.
Let's find the truth together.
And put everything back where it belongs.
To do that, we need to build up our strength.
And we're bound together by the fact that
we both lost our fathers to the same person.
I remember.
Because of you, I was able to go to University.
And become a police investigator.
Thinking about it, I became a different person after I met you.
Could it be that you are regretting it?
That's impossible. By finding the truth,
we have to return everything back.
I will go now.
Soo Hyeon...
You... Is anything wrong?
No. Why?
Nothing.
Be careful. Choi Byeong Gi saw your face.
He should've figured out you're Kang Hee Soo's son by now.
Don't worry.
But don't you think it's strange?
Why do you think that he used a different killing method on my father only?
What are you saying?
Choi Byeong Ki's specialty is poisoning.
But my father was killed by strangling.
I suddenly got curious as to what the reason was.
He probably wanted it
to look like an unrelated case.
That's possible too.
Has the Chief Prosecutor's condition improved a little?
We should wait and see since his condition's been improving slowly.
If the Chief Prosecutor could testify about Chairman Jo...
It's me.
We shouldn't leave the Chief Prosecutor alone in his hospital room.
What are you saying?
Chief Prosecutor's pretty much the only witness.
There's a good chance that Choi Byeong Gi will go for Chief Prosecutor's life.
The police are guarding in front of his hospital room.
We can't feel secured. If he makes up his mind,
he's the kind of person who will do it through any means.
Oppa is probably in the hospital room too. I'll call him.
Okay.
Yi Soo...
Yes?
Thank you.
You mean your entire fortune?
Ah, yes. I already have a scholarship foundation.
It would be great if it's a foundation for the disabled or the disadvantaged.
I would like you to be the sole person in charge.
You made a difficult decision.
It's a life we were born into empty-handed anyway.
If I can do something rewarding, albeit with just money before I die,
then I wouldn't have any further wish.
I just feel bad for you and Hae Woo.
No worries. I'll be happy to be in charge and proceed with it.
That's right. Thank you.
Then, I'll get back to you as soon as I have things ready.
Alright. Go now.
Chief Prosecutor must feel lonely now.
It's hard for Chief Prosecutor to testify yet, isn't it?
Yes.
I'll just pay my greetings to him since I'm already here.
Are you discriminating?
I just saw someone go in there a moment ago.
Well, the thing is...
Ah, seriously!
Don't be like this.
What's going on?
This person is drunk.
Who is? Who's drunk?
You see, I have a very special relationship with Director Oh Joon Yeong.
But who are you?
Do you want to get fired?
I'm sorry. Leave!
- Just leave. - What are you doing to a person visiting a patient? Seriously.
Who are you exactly?
Do your work properly.
How rude.
You should answer when someone asks you something!
Father, aren't I right?!
Father!
Father, you must have suffered a lot.
Cheer up!
You'll surely recover completely!
Dong Soo.
Oh, Hae Woo! You're here.
What are you doing here at this time?
It's me, Chairman.
The situation today wasn't good. I'm sorry.
Director!
Long time no see.
What are you doing here, Reporter Seo?
You weren't taking my calls, so I thought I should visit you here.
Is it okay right now?
If it's nothing urgent, let's do it next time.
It's about Prosecutor Jo.
I think I should go without seeing Hyung-nim.
My eyes can't stay open because of the alcohol.
You came all the way here. What to do?
I can always come next time.
But, Hae Woo.
If you're caught planting a bug on someone, is it a jail sentence?
Of course, under the law.
For how long?
Why are you asking?
I think someone I know
has bugged someone else.
But, that person is good! That person was never a bad person to begin with.
But I think she's only doing it because she's just an employee.
Are you saying that, perhaps, someone's bugged CEO Kim Joon?
When did I say such a thing?
No. Definitely not.
Who's bugged him?
I said that's really not the case.
Hey. You're really smart.
No, no...
What I'm saying is... Anyway, that's not it.
I'm leaving.
Dong Soo.
Say hello to Hyung-nim.
Father, take care. I'll be back again.
There is a rumor that Prosecutor Jo and Giant Hotel's CEO Kim Joon, are in a close relationship.
Who said that kind of nonsense?
In fact, it came from the Editor-in-Chief.
It looks like they have evidence.
Did you come here to tell me that?
I know how you feel--
I will only say it once, so listen carefully.
Whether it be true or not, if you open that mouth of yours again,
aside from holding you legally responsible, I myself won't just sit and watch.
Do you understand?
It's me, Chief.
I did just meet Director Oh Joon Yeong and let him know.
You're going through a lot right now, aren't you?
Even so, you must hang in there a little more.
Because you're a strong person.
So you will surely overcome this, Father-in-law.
Also,
the picture you left. I received it.
What message you were trying to convey with it,
I understand.
Thank you, Father-in-law.
When did you arrive?
Why did you come here, instead of going home?
I was worried about your dad.
I was worried about you too.
Worried?
For me?
For my dad?
Go home.
Let's talk.
I have nothing to say.
It's me, Detective Lee. About the thing I asked you.
Did you look into it?
I'd asked you for a background check on Han Yeong Man.
Send it to me by email.
You like me, don't you?
I like you too.
What are you talking about?
I'm saying, it's okay to like me.
I'm about to reveal the truth.
Only now do I have the courage to reveal the truth as it is.
Dad!
You're in the same homeroom as Hae Woo?
Why do you think he used a different method only when he killed my dad?
Hae Woo!
Han Yi Soo. You jerk.
You are a re--al jerk.
♫ My love is transformed too easily ♫ like telling a lie.
♫ If you can't return again, ♫ then everyone should cast aside everything.
♫ Trembling with tears welling up in my two eyes,
♫ Again and again I say the word I love you.
♫ In damned love, in toxic love
♫ it seems I have fallen deeply.
Joon Yeong came home at dawn.
What happened?
I'm sorry.
I told him that you called to say that you were working overnight.
Okay.
Are you just coming home?
Yes.
Where did she say she spent the night?
She had a lot of work; so worked overnight.
As if she's saving the country or anything...
What about father?
He's in the garden.
I heard you worked overnight?
I'll bet you're tired. Go wash up first.
I didn't work overnight.
Oppa,
I d-don't know how to tell you this.
Actually, yesterday--
How can you be so cruel?
Can't you tell...
how I'm barely holding on by a thread?
I'm trying to get pass this,
as if there's nothing going on
and that this is all nothing.
You could've done the same, no?
You could've done the same.
Secretary Kim.
Yes.
I believe Chairman Jo delegated the plan to donate his entire fortune to society
to Director Oh.
Thanks for the info.
Where are you?
I'm here to pick out a rental car.
There was a problem with my car.
What's up?
Find the name and contact information for the cop who worked with Choi Byeong Gi in 1980.
What for?
Something I have to find out. Help me.
I got it.
Have you decided?
Aren't all license plate for rentals have 'Huh'?
Ah, that. Since last March, rentals now have more options, such as 'Ha' and 'Ho'.
I'll take this one.
Aigoo, my heart is thumping. Darn.
As you mentioned, I'm also planning to plant a bug in CEO's (Yi Soo) office.
Right! I've decided. For everyone's happiness!
Mr. Kim Dong Soo!
Ouch!
What are you doing right now?
What?
Ah, well, I didn't do anything.
Tell me the truth. What were you looking for?
That's, ah, well...
Aish . . . You shouldn't do it, Secretary Jang!
What?
I don't know what weakness of yours Chairman (Yoshimura) is holding, but
a thing that you shouldn't do, shouldn't be done even if you're about to be killed!
What are you talking about?
Our CEO (Yi Soo) is, truthfully, a really lonely person.
Friendless, family-less and minority in love (gay), so he can't even love easily. How lonely he must be?
Mr. Kim Dong Soo.
As if that's not enough, the only people he can trust seem to be just the two of us, you and me.
And not a stranger, but YOU, Secretary Jang, stabs him in the back. Then...
Then, that's the mother of all betrayal, you know?!
I still can't understand why a nice and good person like Secretary Jang would bug his office.
I will keep your secret until the end, but
this is not right. You know?
No matter how high up the chairman is on the corporate hierarchy,
you should have refused the things you shouldn't do from the get-go.
The worst that could happen is to be fired!
I'm really disappointed with you, Secretary Jang.
I shouldn't have said the part about being disappointed.
You were ignoring me earlier, saying all I had was just the title of President.
So why have you come to meet me?
Truthfully, I have some plans for a business hotel,
and it's inevitable that Gaya is the best partner to have.
Why did you change your mind so suddenly?
Chairman Yoshimura trusts President Jo deeply,
so my judgment must have been wrong.
Well...
it's hard for me to decide right now.
But let me think about it and I'll contact you.
I understand.
But I heard that Chairman Jo is creating a fund
to donate all of his fortune to society. Is that true?
What... Who said that?
I only heard about it too. So, if that's
really true,
then, it'll be hard for you to raise finances.
That won't happen.
If there is a problem with finances, please contact me anytime.
I will help you find a solution.
I have
enough power to take care of that myself.
Of course, you do.
Is it true that you're using all of your fortune to create a fund?
Who is saying that?
Just tell me if it's true or not!
It's true.
With whose consent?
You can't!
I'm doing this for you.
Don't talk such nonsense.
Hand down the chairman position to me.
Ui Seon.
Do you think I don't know what you're planning?
Instead of letting me become the Chairman, you'd rather create a fund system
and live as a hero forever and ever.
Shut your mouth!
If you continue being like this, Father, I have a plan too.
I will tell the world about your identity!
Go ahead.
You think I won't be able to?
You won't!
I will.
No...
You won't be able to.
I'm the one who helped you until now.
If I fall,
then you will be trapped in a corner.
But, I... I
will do it.
I won't stop you.
If you want yourself or even Hae Woo,
to be the son and granddaughter of a phoney,
then go ahead.
Did you call for me?
Well...
You know the buildings and the deposit accounts that are in the US and Japan, right?
- Yes. - That and
the funds we were going to use to merge with Grand Bleu . . .
That was Director Oh's-
That's why I'm telling you to find a way!
If Secretary Yoo knows, then the Chairman will find out right away. So that's why I've called you.
You know what I mean, right?
Yes.
Go now.
Then that's taken care of for now.
It's me.
As you instructed, Mr. CEO, it's going well.
Okay.
Who is it?
I live here.
Are you Professor Do Jin Gook?
That's right.
Who are you?
My name is Shin Hyeok.
In 1980, you worked with Choi Byeong Gi at the same police department.
Yes, but why?
I know this may be rude.
But sir, during the Gwangjoo resistance, were you-
What is it that you want to know?
Do you know
Han Yeong Man?
Yes.
He worked at a different police department,
but he was at the defense police force with Choi Byeong Gi.
Han Yeong Man...
I don't remember the name.
It's him.
Oh, his name is Han Yeong Man?
Do you remember him?
He was having a hard time being in Gwangjoo.
The police chief was Choi Byeong Gi, so when Han Yeong Man told Choi Byeong Gi that he wanted to quit,
Han Yeong Man was scolded harshly by him.
Although he was like that at first,
later, he became a whole different person.
Became a different person?
Originally, he was such a gentleman, then, he became like a viper.
Do you know what happened to him after?
I don't.
But you'll probably be able to find out where he was stationed by looking through the police records.
He's listed as retired in 1980, in the police records.
If it was 1980... Then, it's the same year as Choi Byeong Gi.
Perhaps, they went to Namyeong-dong together?
That definitely
wouldn't have happened.
That is probably not true.
Thank you for your time.
An article on the fund system?
I don't know what happened either.
There aren't that many people who know about this.
I tried my best to keep everyone quiet.
I'm sorry.
Find out from where the information leaked.
Okay.
I am with the Prosecutor.
I don't know the reason why we're here yet.
Hyung, what are you up to?
I have to meet someone.
Come back safely.
It's been a long time since she died.
However,
how are you related to her?
I'm her granddaughter.
Her granddaughter?
Aigoo, she said she didn't have any children.
How can she have a granddaughter?
Did my grandmother, Yang Sun Ok, live by herself her whole life?
When she got old, she had someone she regarded as her own child.
That person arranged the funeral and did all the hard work.
That person. . . Where can I meet him?
Are you the one looking for me?
Are you Kim Chul Soo?
Yes.
I came to ask you about Yang Sun Ok.
At first, she said she didn't have any children.
A few days before she died, she said she had a son.
She didn't say why she didn't look for her son?
She only said it was for the best for her son.
Do you happen to have her belongings in your possession?
Her belongings only amounted to a travel bag.
She lived a very lonely life.
If you text your address, I'll have it delivered to you.
Thank you.
Here.
This is a picture that was used at her funeral. Take it.
Are you alright?
We still have hope.
What do you mean?
We have to hurry if we want to get to Seoul.
I'll be right back.
Mom will be here soon.
Is there something you need to tell me?
Is it something about the criminal?
Then to answer my questions, blink once for yes,
and just stay still for no.
Do you know Kim Joon from Giant Hotel?
He's Han Yi Soo, Father.
Do you think Yi Soo planned it?
Do you know who the criminal is?
Do you know his name?
I'll write out some last names, one by one.
Kim
Lee
Park
Choi
Yoon
Jo
Jo Ui Seon
Is this the one?
Then,
Is it someone who has no relationship to Hae Woo's family?
If it's not Father-in-law, then the only one left is...
Father, could it be...
Are you... saying it's Grandfather?
Father, is Chairman Jo Sang Gook the one?
Who is it?
My name is Han Yi Soo.
It's boring, huh?
No, I'm fine. Section Chief, you must be tired.
I'm fine too.
Have this.
Thanks.
Yes, Ahjussi. I just arrived in Seoul.
What do you mean?
According to the records, Han Yeong Man was also a police officer, only for one year in paper.
I also remember checking.
He only had about one year of police experience.
Yes.
So I didn't think much of it earlier.
We haven't placed that much importance on Han Yeong Man until now.
What do you mean?
I compared him with Choi Byeong Gi.
Han Yeong Man and Choi Byeong Gi have many similarities.
Like what specifically?
They were both part of the defense police force during the Gwangjoo resistance in 1980.
They also retired in the same year.
And, they were off-duty during the same time period.
Are you perhaps saying that Yi Soo's father was also a torturer?
Do you happen to recognize these people?
Do you know these people?
I don't know how you are related to these people, but this is already in the past.
It's better to leave this here...
Answer me.
He was a torturer nicknamed 'the Shadow'.
Torturer?
Yes.
This one... Is it this person?
You mean this person.
Right, Professor?
It's not that person. 'The Shadow'
is this one.
Han Yi Soo.
Father!
The world needs balance.
If only one side is unfairly treated, then the balance is toppled.
Don't you think your life needs balance too?
I have someone I have to meet.
It's better to leave the past as is, at least for your father.
I finally received my forgiveness today.
There is a lot that you don't know.
Later. I will tell you everything later.
Everything comes around, and it'll come back to its rightful place.
If I think of the pain you will receive,
I feel so sorry.
I can tell you the truth about the father
that you do not know.
Stop it!
Stop...stop...
Yes, Professor.
Who came by?
A picture...
Did you tell him?
What's going on?
Car. Let me borrow your car.
Let me know what's going on.
Give me the car keys.
Don't look back.
You have to finish it,
Han Yi Soo.
