Hong Manshik isn't back yet.
I can't believe that Manshik did it.
I know he has to have lied to prove that I'm innocent.
But why would he do that?
He probably received money from Lee Kichol.
His mother had a big surgery right after the accident.
I think it would have been to pay for the surgery.
Manshik!
The witness said the driver was dressed in white.
Look here. Baek Inho isn't dressed in white.
Lee Kichol is the one wearing white.
Tell us the truth now.
Who was the driver?
The legal prescription on this case is outdated.
Even if you reveal the truth, there are no legal consequences.
But Mr. Baek, Jaeun, my family and I need to know the truth.
Mr. Baek became a murderer when he returned.
Jaeun has left Seoul.
Please, tell us the truth.
Manshik...
You gave me the video for the illicit admission.
You were brave enough to do that for Jaeun.
Please be brave once more.
Lee Kichol was the driver that day, wasn't he?
Hong Manshik, your words made life hell for many of us.
Lee Kichol was the driver, wasn't he?
No.
Mr. Baek was the driver.
Hong Manshik! How much longer will you keep this up?
Is this how you repay him for trusting you for 30 years?
Look at the photo! Who is in white?
Lieutenant Hwang, don't. Let's just go.
Lieutenant Hwang.
Thank you so much for your effort.
And I'm sorry.
But don't do this anymore.
Forget Jaeun and start over.
Jaeun would want that too.
That's why she left.
I will leave you now.
Yes, it's me.
Lieutenant Hwang came with a photo.
He had a photo of the hiking group from 26 years ago.
Chief Lee Kichol?
He's dressed in white!
I know.
Then he was the driver.
As you said, he switched seats with the drunken Baek Inho.
Hong Manshik kept silent in return for his mother's surgery.
It all fits together.
It's not 100% yet.
We need decisive evidence and Hong Manshik's confession.
Lee Kichol would've left evidence after paying him.
That way, he could continue to blackmail him.
Yes, I agree with you.
There won't be many documents as it was 26 years ago.
Look through all the hospital and bank transaction records.
Yes, I'll do my best.
Thanks.
When is Professor Seo coming back to Korea?
He's flying in tomorrow. We'll summon him again.
Is your head alright?
Shouldn't you go to the hospital?
It's alright.
That's why he was so frantic to find the video.
Tomorrow...
Shall we lure him in?
All done. Let's get up!
Look how pretty you are, Princess Jimin.
I'll wipe it for you.
Jaeun, your mother is here.
Mother?
Let's go.
Mrs. Hwang!
Jaeun!
Mrs. Hwang, how did you know I was here?
Don't think I can't find you.
I could find you even if you went to the South Pole!
Mrs. Hwang...
How have you been?
You look a little better.
Yes, I'm a lot better.
I see.
Is she your mom?
Yes, I'm Jaeun's mom.
- Don't we look alike? - Yes!
But she's much taller than you.
I know. I have short legs.
You can't believe it? Believe it.
Grandma forgave you guys. She said it's not your fault.
She sent me here to bring you back.
It's okay.
You've been through a lot.
I know you've gone through a lot of pain.
We need to hurry if we want to catch the last train.
I'm sorry, Mrs. Hwang.
I'm so sorry.
I'm so grateful...
I can't even express how grateful I am...
That's all the reason more why I can't accept.
I don't think I should.
I'm just going to stay here for a little while.
I've gotten a lot better here.
I don't have time to think about other things.
I laugh with the children.
We don't just laugh when we're happy.
Now I know laughing brings us happiness.
Okay, if that's how you feel.
I may as well rest here a few days too.
I'm sick of looking at the old, dark men at my house.
I felt so happy seeing those pretty children.
Is it okay?
Of course. I can stay with my daughter if I want to.
Even the kids said we look alike.
Marry Jaeun.
Go and bring Jaeun.
- Grandma... - What? Are you against it?
No, it's not like that...
You won't marry anyone besides Jaeun.
I need to see you marry so I can leave in peace.
Do I have any other choice?
Grandma...
I can't say that I've totally forgiven her father yet.
But I am happy to give you my permission.
I don't want to live seeing you look so down.
I don't want Jaeun to carry such a big burden either.
No matter how much I think about it, Jaeun really is a fox.
Look at the way she has changed my heart.
- Grandma... - Go and bring her back.
I want to see you two smile again. That will make me live on.
Seeing her empty seat at breakfast every morning...
My heart feels so empty. Rice tastes like sand.
Bring her back quickly so I can enjoy my meals.
Grandma, thank you.
Thank your father. He gave his permission.
No, it was grandma's idea.
I just agreed.
You've been through a lot. I bet you hated me.
No, dad. Thank you.
I'm happy too.
Taehui, congratulations.
Thank you, grandma, dad.
Grandma, you're the best. Dad, thanks.
Congratulations, Taehui.
Go and get her right away.
I want to see her smile. It will help me sleep.
Your mom's there now...
And speaking of the devil...
Hello, did you meet Jaeun?
Really?
Okay, I see.
Do that then.
Jaeun seems to have trouble coming with her.
She's too grateful that she can't accept.
Yes, she has a good heart. I thought she might say that.
Bokja will try to convince her. She says to wait a few days.
Okay, let's wait a few more days.
Bokja will bring her back.
Alright.
That's nonsense.
Don't wait for her. Go to her right now.
Yes, Taehui. I can understand Jaeun.
Now is the time for you to take charge.
Good grief! What are you doing?
Grandma gave you her permission. Go to her right now.
- Not yet. - What do you mean by that?
I have to go out to investigate.
Hwang Taehui! Taehui!
Has he lost his mind?
Thank you.
Cheers.
Being here with you like this, it feels like I'm on vacation. This is nice.
I remember that time.
When we drank in the attic after Taebeom got married.
What do you like so much about Taehui?
I asked Taehui what he liked about you.
When I see Mister Taehui, I just want to give him hugs.
He doesn't talk much, but I can feel it.
When he's angry, when he's happy.
When he's lonely or down.
Like waiting on a rainy day by the school fence...
Knowing that no one is coming for you.
I knew he'd been waiting for someone his whole life.
Yet he had still grown up so well.
So I wanted to keep hugging him.
I wanted to help him smile.
When he smiles...
I felt like popcorn was popping inside my heart and filling it up.
Like the lights turning on one by one on a Christmas tree.
It made me excited, overwhelmed and happy.
Are you getting goosebumps? Was it too corny?
No, I understand.
I've been in love too, you know.
I loved with passion too. Everyone knew about it.
I was like you back when I was a girl.
Mr. Hwang was like Taehui.
Grandma was so against our marriage.
Mr. Hwang ran into the river saying he'd die without me in front of grandma.
Really? Mr. Hwang did that?
Yes.
We were so passionate.
Now I'm old and that seems like a fading memory.
I can tell you still love each other a lot.
No way. He's my enemy. I just put up with him.
Don't say that. Mr. Hwang loves you.
- Does he seem that way? - Yes.
He only has eyes for you.
Goodness...
I don't mind hearing that.
I had a past like you too.
I wasn't someone's mom, daughter-in-law, wife...
A time when I was just Park Bokja.
I had dreams back then.
Just like you, I felt pain and heartache over love to the point of death.
Jaeun.
You don't have to come back if you don't want to.
Love isn't everything.
You can live your life the way you want to.
If you get married for love...
You'll realize there's more than love.
You'll see things that are much more important.
The passionate love will fade away...
It's like watching a snowman melt.
It's sad, you feel empty. It's lonely.
Married couples do grow fond of each other.
Like a snowman melting into the river...
The love flows into our children.
I guess that's just life.
What am I saying?
I should convince you to come with me. I must be drunk.
Cancel everything I said.
Jaeun...
I'm on your side, no matter what you decide.
I'm not Taehui's mom. I'm Jaeun's mom, okay?
- Cheers! - Cheers.
- Dad. - Yes?
I've finished thinking.
Already? You can think longer if you like.
Did you have fun with Uncle Taepil yesterday?
Shall we go again next time?
Tell me. I'm ready for it.
You can tell me honestly.
Get married.
- What? - You can marry Misuk.
As you said, mom and you broke up long ago.
I will understand.
Get married.
You mean it?
Yes, it's alright.
Son!
Let me give you a hug.
Thanks, Guksu.
Thanks so much.
Why didn't you tell me?
It was serious if he went to the airport alone.
I didn't want you to get worried as well.
It's okay now. He gave his permission.
- Really? - Yes.
Even if he did, I don't feel good about it.
He must feel so lonely.
He probably thinks his mother's alive.
All done.
Guksu, can you come out for a minute?
Surprise!
This is sinigang. This is adobo.
People eat this a lot in the Philippines, right?
Yes.
I made it for you. Want to try it?
Be objective about the taste.
Sit down and eat.
It's good.
Really? You're not just saying it to please me?
I'm not. It's really good.
I'll make it for you again next time.
What Filipino foods do you like?
What did your mom make for you?
Sorry, you don't like me talking about your mom...
I tore your photo by accident last time.
It's okay, I stuck it back together.
Did you? I was going to do that for you.
Good. Eat up then.
My mom...
She used to make pancit for me often.
What? Pancit?
Yes, pancit.
It's like stir-fried glass noodles.
So it's like stir-fried glass noodles?
Okay, I won't forget. I'll make it next time.
- Eat up. - Okay.
Why are you having porridge? Are you feeling ill?
- I've lost my appetite. - You should try to eat.
How about prawns for lunch? I'll make reservations.
Thanks, but I don't feel like it.
It's okay. Don't worry. Eat your breakfast.
Yes.
Father, mother. We have something to tell you.
We discussed it for many days. Please understand.
The two of us want to move...
Let me speak first.
I don't think I can go to your house every morning.
Excuse me?
I don't think I can cook, clean or do your laundry.
Take care of it yourselves or find a maid.
I'm getting old now. Everything's a burden.
I'm getting up first.
Dad, what's wrong with mom?
Did you have a fight?
It's not like that...
She had a medical checkup and has to be tested again.
Again? Is something wrong?
There was a problem with the breast cancer screening.
It should be alright.
Your mother had checkups every year.
Everything should be okay.
It's okay, eat up.
Continue what you were saying.
It's alright, we'll tell you later.
Okay then.
My dear, Suyeong.
- Mom. - Yes?
Aren't you going to work? You have a morning meeting.
I postponed it for 30 minutes. I was worried about you.
Don't worry about me. Go to work.
You looked really worried.
Mom, do you remember when I was in the 12th grade?
Dad had to have his stomach examined again.
We were all so nervous and couldn't sleep.
I was so scared.
But nothing happened. It was just a little gastritis.
So you'll be alright.
Nothing will happen.
I hope so.
I haven't even seen Cha Gom yet. I hope nothing happens.
I have to see Taebeom become IBC's anchor too.
I have to see you conduct your own talk show too.
- I hope nothing happens. - Of course.
You have to see dad publish his autobiography too.
Come here.
Mom, everything will be okay.
So don't worry, okay?
Okay.
Cha Suyeong.
Thanks for being born as my daughter.
And I'm sorry.
I'm sorry I didn't understand and listen to you more.
I wanted to be like a friend to you.
I wasn't good enough.
Mom, don't say that. Stop.
Cha Suyeong, my daughter.
I really love you.
I said stop it.
What's wrong with you?
It's just a re-examination. Don't get ahead of yourself.
Nothing will happen.
Nothing's going to happen. You'll be fine!
Don't cry!
You're still a big baby.
How are you going to raise Cha Gom like this?
That's why I need you.
You have to be by my side forever.
What?
Alright, go to work. You'll be late.
Hurry up.
Mom, we'll make reservations. Let's all have lunch together.
- Let's call auntie too. - Alright.
Don't tell your auntie.
She has a weak heart. She'll pass out.
Okay?
- Excuse me, Taepil. - Yes?
I'm having lunch with my family today.
Do you want to see them today? Let's not wait until the weekend.
Today?
Alright! I want to get permission quickly too.
Am I dressed alright? Shall I get changed?
Turn around for me.
Walk from over there.
- From there? - Yes.
How do I look?
I should get changed, right?
What kind of style does your sister like?
You look fine.
You look good in anything.
Then I'm going like this.
Why isn't Yeoul coming? Is there a traffic jam?
She must have customers. Let's just wait.
Mom, I'll call her.
Oh, Taepil... Wait!
Not today.
- It's okay. - Wait.
- Move out of the way. - But mom... Auntie!
Taepil!
Hyeonjae, Yeogyeong. I'm here.
Hello...
I came too.
What brings you here?
I asked him to come, so we could eat together.
I'm here to gain permission from you both.
- Permission? - Permission?
What do you mean by that?
I want to meet Yeoul officially.
Please allow it. Hyeonjae, Yeogyeong.
What?
So it was all a show at our house?
It was all a lie?
I'm sorry.
It's not Taepil's fault. It was my idea.
I knew you would both be against it.
I'm sorry. Sorry, Yeogyeong.
You shouldn't have lied about that.
The same goes for you. Why did you come here today?
Do you think that we will really allow it?
I know it won't be easy.
She's Suyeong's aunt and there's an age gap.
I know we don't suit in terms of education or wealth.
So you won't think our...
I mean, you won't think that my love for her is pure.
But I really like Yeoul.
I love her very much.
I'll take good care of her so you don't worry.
- Please allow it. - Me too.
I really like Taepil.
Just let us love. Hyeonjae, Yeogyeong...
Stop it, Yeoul. Do you really think your sister will say yes?
- The two of you... - I will give my permission.
You can see each other.
- Honey... - Mother...
Mom, do you mean it?
Yes, I mean it.
They like each other so much. How can I stop them?
I'll allow it.
Yeogyeong...
What are we left with at the end of our lives?
Aren't they the memories of the one we love?
Love and be happy while you're alive.
That's all I want from you.
Thank you. I'll do my best to love her.
Honey, you will regret this tomorrow.
- Think over it again. - No, I won't regret it.
Don't keep scolding them. The same goes for you.
- Mother... - We should order.
I'll treat you today. Choose something delicious.
Yes, choose the best dish on the menu.
Shall I?
Yours is too big!
We could eat that for 4 days!
Look how grubby that is. Like a crow.
Shape it like this.
That's good. Do that.
Then try it like this.
They're so excited that Mrs. Hwang's here.
What are you doing? Don't just look, try it.
I heard you got permission from grandmother.
That's good. It looks pretty.
You're going back, right?
Good. Nice work.
You can meet Lieutenant Hwang now.
Could you meet him if you were me?
Please take Mrs. Hwang home with you.
I don't feel comfortable seeing her yet.
Don't be afraid.
He has the photo but it doesn't prove anything.
Don't say anything stupid.
I can't take it anymore.
Let's... Reveal the truth.
What's gotten into you?
Do you feel guilty now?
You stabbed your boss in the back for 26 years.
The flight is this afternoon.
Stay out of the country for a while.
Don't come back until things get quiet.
I can't trick Mr. Baek any longer.
Do you want your mother to find out
how her surgery was paid for, 26 years ago?
Hello, ma'am.
I'm Detective Seo Dongmin of the eastern Seoul office.
This good-looking kid is my assistant, Detective Hwang Taehui.
Hello, ma'am.
What do you want?
It's nothing serious.
We're investigating into the hospital you were at.
We want to ask a few questions about your stay there.
- Have this. - Thank you.
Are you feeling better now?
Your son always worries about your health.
- You know my son? - I've met him several times.
He's a good man.
You know him well.
My son's a good boy.
That's why so many people offer to help him.
Yes, I'm sure.
Did someone help when you had surgery 26 years ago then?
I bet the surgery must've cost quite a bit.
Yes, of course.
Someone was very gracious to my son.
Do you know who it was?
I don't know, but he paid all my surgery fees.
What a wonderful man. He must've been an angel.
Have you ever seen his face?
Sure, he even came to see me once.
You would remember if you see his face then?
Of course not. It was a long time ago.
I see.
Do you remember his name by any chance?
His name? How could I remember that?
- Go now. - Alright.
- We'll leave you now. - Thank you.
Wait a minute.
The bank account should have his name on it.
Account? Do you have that?
Of course, I don't throw things like that out.
Let's see... Here it is.
Take a look.
He checked out this morning?
Yes, he left early this morning.
Hong Manshik checked out. Check the list of departures.
Okay.
Yes, Detective Jang.
There's movement?
Keep watch. Professor Seo is coming today.
Okay.
Hong Manshik's going to Beijing at 3 p.m. today.
What? Get in!
- You go that way. - Okay.
Manshik.
What happened? Mr. Park said you're leaving today.
Why are you leaving without saying a word?
Is it because I upset you?
Because I suspected you?
I'm sorry.
I've done my daughter so much wrong that
I was clinging to my only piece of hope.
I heard you're going through a lot these days.
This is the contact of Mr. Seo in China.
Call him when you get there.
He'll set up a sales chain for you in China.
I made sure of it.
- Sir... - Take it.
I heard you took care of Jaeun when I was missing.
I'll visit your mother often while you're away.
Don't worry about a thing.
You'll be late. Go.
Go on. Go inside.
Yes. Goodbye...
Hong Manshik!
- Hong Manshik. - What is it now?
I don't have time.
See what it says on your account from 26 years ago.
Are you still going to deny it?
Tell the truth now.
Move.
- I have nothing to say. - Hong Manshik!
What is it? What's wrong?
You...
- How could you? - Kill me, sir.
I deserve to die. Please kill me.
Tell the truth now. Who drove that day?
The driver that day...
It was Chief Lee Kichol. You didn't drive that day.
What?
Lee Kichol drove and switched seats after the accident, didn't he?
- Isn't that right? - It's true.
He switched seats.
What? What did you say?
Kill me, sir.
Kill me, please.
Stop right there!
Stay still!
Where's Jeong Ildo's bribe ledger? Tell me!
What? Jeong Ildo's bribe ledger too?
Lieutenant Hwang...
The transfer you made to Hong Manshik's account 26 years ago.
And...
Do you want your mother to pass out?
If you ever tell Baek Inho that I was the driver...
I'll tell your mother everything.
Chief Lee Kichol.
The criminal of the hit-and-run on Chungdong Road 26 years ago...
Is you.
You killed my father.
No, it wasn't me!
It wasn't!
You're an animal. You're not even human!
Inho...
Lieutenant Hwang, I'm sorry.
I ran over your father.
I admit that Jeong Ildo bribed me too.
I'll admit everything but please spare my daughter, Seungri.
If her admission to university is cancelled...
How will I face her?
You piece of garbage! How dare you say that?
First you framed Jaeun with the illicit admission.
Then you tried to frame her father with the hit-and-run?
Lieutenant Hwang... For my daughter...
Save me, for her sake.
What is it?
Chief Lee Kichol, for receiving bribes from Jeong Ildo...
For illicitly admitting your daughter into university.
According to breach of clause 129 and 130...
You are under arrest.
No! Let go of me!
Do you know who I am? I'm Chief Lee Kichol!
Let go of me!
Let go!
You should go now.
Go and bring Jaeun back.
I will.
Hurry up. I'll take care of things here.
Enjoy your meal.
Yes, dad.
Wait a minute.
Yes, it's okay. You can speak to me.
Dad!
Jaeun, it's dad.
I didn't drive that day!
I was framed.
I'm not the criminal.
Dad...
Can you tell me once more?
Lieutenant Hwang investigated it all. I'm not the criminal.
I'm not a criminal anymore.
Jaeun, are you listening?
Can you hear me?
I'm listening.
I'm listening to you, dad.
- Jaeun. - Jaeun...
What is it? Tell us.
Mrs. Hwang.
It wasn't him.
My dad isn't the criminal.
How have you been?
- Not very good. - Same...
I haven't been very well.
I thought I'd never see you again.
I thought I'd never see you...
