How do you happen to be here?
I am meeting with Chairman Jo Sang Gook.
You're his granddaughter, right?
Do you know my grandfather?
I've always wanted to meet him.
However, this will be my first time meeting him in person.
Then the person he said he invited to the cabin today is..
What's wrong with that jerk?!
Are you ok, Sir?
I understand that he's your old friend's son, but
inviting him to the cabin is a little too much.
He's not that important.
I hear that Jeong Man Cheol is dead.
Is that why
you've been so anxious lately?
His death has nothing to do with me, Father.
I have no reason to be anxious.
And, I'm not anxious.
I thought... Since grandfather said it's an important guest...
I mean...
I don't mean that you're not an important person, but
I thought it'd be someone more imposing than...
What I'm trying to say is...
It's not that you're not imposing, sir, but...
Being called a "sunseng nim" (*teacher/sir)
does make me feel pretty important.
Does this lake have a name?
Not officially. Everyone calls it something different.
What do you call it?
Call what?
What do you, Ms. Joe Hae Woo,
call this lake?
I just call it "the lake".
It seems the most appropriate.
Calling it by any other name or description
feels like I'm tainting its natural beauty.
To be honest...
It's been on my mind for quite awhile.
That day I must have made
a terrible first impression on you (referring to her crying on the balcony)
I'm sure you were very surprised.
I'm kind of like that.
I can't control my emotions too well.
So I make a lot of mistakes.
I think I am the one who made a mistake.
If it was discomforting, then
I would like to apologize to you.
It's not like that, at all.
Does this lake have fish?
Of course.
Some say that a thousand year old gold fish lives here.
They call it a guardian god that protects the village.
They say some people dove into the water, lured by the golden fish,
and never came back.
Of course, it's just a legend.
It could be the truth.
If it is true, then,
I hope no one ever sees the fish.
I won't want anyone, again,
to lose his life.
Stars must look
very beautiful from here.
Stars must look beautiful from here.
It's time for Grandfather's arrival.
Let's go.
♫ I would rather hate you. The more I hold you, the more it hurts,
♫ Even though I will forget everything the next morning and try to find you again.
♫ I'd rather put off this love which becomes useless
♫ Because somehow time will flow on us.
♫ I'm sorry for still thinking of you; for still loving you.
♫ Because I won't be able to let you go at the end.
♫ Let's love just one more day, that lie again!
♫ Once I see you again, I forget everything else.
♫ But to love you smiling again.
♫ Let's forget even if it's just for a day-- another empty promise.
♫ Even if I hurt when I see you.
♫ I keep promising to myself, crying,
♫ I'll continue to move between heaven and hell because of you. Oppa!
I knew you would be here.
Hello.
Let me introduce myself formally.
I am Giant Hotel's Kim Joon.
I'm Oh Jun Young.
I wasn't expecting to see you here.
I was invited by Chairman Jo Sang Gook.
I see.
I didn't know an important guest was staying at our hotel.
I didn't want to be a burden
so I kept it from you.
Thank you for your consideration.
I heard that Giant Hotel is trying to establish itself in Seoul.
I'll be needing a lot of advice from you, Director Oh.
Please take good care of me.
I'm not in a position to do that. I'm still learning myself.
Instead, if you ever need a drinking buddy, you can always call on me.
Honestly, I prefer soju over hard liquor
and street side carts over hotels.
Where's grandfather?
I just got a call that they are almost here.
Let's go.
I'll be with you soon.
I want to explore the forest a little more.
Then I'll show you around.
I am grateful, but I would feel more comfortable by myself.
Alright.
Please do take your time.
Come home early!
Be sure to call on your way home, too.
Oh, I'm not still in elementary school.
I'm leaving.
Okay...
Call me!
O... kay!
How is she these days?
She is still the same... Why?
No, nothing. I will be back.
Be careful.
You are not young anymore.
Jeez...
You waited for me because you were curious about it?
If Mom knows, she'll probably be worried.
The case you are investigating...
Is it related to Oppa's accident?
I don't know yet.
According to Hae Woo Unni-
You said you were late for your part-time work.
Dad will take you there. Let's go.
Please tell me honestly.
There's nothing to say.
Even if there is, no comment,
I have the right to know.
I should know the reason why.
I should, at least, know what and how it happened.
I know what you're worried about.
But I'm alright.
I'm already over all the shocks.
So Dad,
If it has something to do with Oppa,
don't hide it and please tell me.
Dad..
Okay.
You promised, right?
Get in.
I hope it's good news.
Maybe Oppa is still alive.
Yes.
Alright.
Thank you.
Keep up the good work.
Yes, Chairman.
Why is this guy not coming?
I will go find him.
Should I come with you?
It's okay.
Making the hosts wait. What's with him?
This is why a person's origin is important.
Everyone in the business knows that
Chairman Yoshimura (elder) used to be a Yakuza.
So, his successor is probably also-
I'm sorry I'm late.
It's nice to meet you for the first time, Chairman.
I'm Yoshimura Joon.
It's nice to meet you.
I should've visited you earlier,
My greeting is late.
Chairman Yoshimura.
He's a great guy.
To be successful from ground up, especially in a foreign country,
is not something anyone can achieve.
The more I think about it...
I'm very pleased. Very pleased.
Seeing you, I feel relieved.
I was worried about him being all alone.
Since Chairman Yoshimura has a son like you beside him,
it makes me very happy.
Money and success, without a family to share them,
would be futile and meaningless, don't you agree?
Yes, probably so.
I think true friendship is a stronger bond than blood.
As I see it, because of this friend,
I now have a reliable grandson in you.
It's an honor.
Yoshimura, when I look at that friend, how should I say it...
I feel the strength and determination that can only be
felt from someone who has lived through a lot.
I can also feel that in you.
Thank you for your compliments.
Even though my real eyes are now dim from old age,
my heart's eyes are still alright.
Please continue to support and take care of
my friend, Chairman Yoshimura.
Although I'm lacking, I will do my best.
If only there were more people like grandfather,
this world would be less chaotic.
Then you'll have nothing to do as a prosecutor.
Is that so?
Stop making fun of your grandfather.
I'm being sincere.
The person I admire the most is my grandfather.
So it's like that.
Now it all makes sense.
What does?
I was very curious about how you two knew each other.
And to invite someone to the cabin, which you rarely do.
I heard Giant Hotel is coming to Seoul.
Is it true?
Is it just rumor? I don't see any development.
I'm not sure if your business model is just very secretive.
But it feels like there's something shady going on.
That's our business model.
It's the Yakuza method.
I guess you're not too happy
about what I said earlier.
No, it's fine.
My personality is... I'm not very good at hiding things.
So I have a terrible poker face.
I say what I think.
I know it's helpful to mask one's emotions at times, but
I can't do that.
Are you always so quiet?
From time to time.
That's not a good trait for a hotelier.
This is a service industry. We value courtesy.
I believe in listening to others well
is also a form of courtesy.
Your statement is not incorrect. But,
You might come across as someone that looks through others,
while hiding your own intentions.
Isn't that right?
If you want to earn people's trust as I do,
honesty is the best quality.
I think there's nobody who's completely honest.
Everyone hides their true self.
Sometimes in order to hide their true self,
they pretend to be honest.
How long are you staying in Korea?
I'm planning to stay in Korea for a while.
Then you can come to our hotel's anniversary, right?
Of course.
Hae Woo, this...
What is that?
I'm sorry to interrupt your conversation.
It's something urgent for Hae Woo.
I was told that this is urgent
and that I should give this to you immediately.
Who was it?
On that... I don't know.
Team Leader, that CCTV in the club,
it was totally a fake one.
Jeong Man Cheol must have wanted to protect the privacy of his club's customers.
That seems to be the case.
From the CCTVs installed, on the route to that warehouse,
we couldn't find anything noticeable.
Any people who might have resentment against him?
There are so many trivial cases,
but not any big deals.
The list of the recent calls of his cell phone is now ready, isn't it?
Yes. If we exclude
you and Prosecutor Jo,
The last person he called is
Jo Ee Seon.
Gaya Hotel CEO Jo Ee Seon?
Is it a wedding gift?
What kind of wedding gift would be urgent?
Hae Woo's friends are a bit mischievous.
Birds of a feather flock together.
Prosecutor Jo is also sometimes mischievous, isn't she?
That's right.
Oh. Is that a gift for me?
[In commemoration of the 30th anniversary of Gaya Hotel, J.E.S.]
Hae Woo.
Yes.
We ran out of wine.
Oh, right.
No. I will go and bring it.

Jo Ee Seon (Gaya Hotel C.E.O.) - Jo Hae Woo (daughter) Han Yeong Man (Driver - dead) - Han Yi Soo (son, dead)
Not at home!
Not at the police station, either.
I can't trust anyone.
He said he surely saw a watch dropped from the wrist of the guy who came out of that car!
Whatever you say, a 7-year-old's statement can't be considered as evidence.
You have to listen to what he says.
Why would the child lie?
Meet him again and listen to him.
It's not a hard thing to do.
The investigation has already ended.
A detective should investigate a case properly.
You have to do that!
You might be put in a difficult position.
Something too hard for you to endure might happen.
How many times should I tell you that it can't be the same watch!??
I threw it away, personally, with my own hands!
Calm down, my ass!
Do something so that Hae Woo can't dig into this case anymore!
Whether you transfer her to another district or something else, you need to do something, Prosecutor General!
Transferring her is beyond my power.
And we can't stop Prosecutor Jo in that way, either.
Then, are you saying you will just let her continue this investigation?
It's a case for which the statute of limitations has run out, anyway.
There's no evidence either.
You think I don't know that?
For such a car accident, it was just a mistake that anyone could make!
It's not even a big deal.
Although the motive (for sending this watch) must be just money,...
This isn't a simple matter of a car accident.
That.. What does that mean?
All the people related to this 12-year-ago case have been murdered.
I don't know who it is, but this guy's motive isn't that simple.
Therefore, if you're hiding anything from me, it would be hard for me to help you, President Jo.
What are you trying to say right now?
Could it be, I..
I will talk to you later.
You guys will stay here one more day, right?
This watch...
It's yours, right?
Twelve years ago,
it was you who caused that hit-and-run accident, not Yi Soo's father.
Yes, Secretary Kim, it is I.
I want you to check something for me.
Are you going to keep on saying nonsense?
It's not me. How many times have I already said that?
Of course, this watch is a brand new one.
The watch found at the accident site must have been gotten rid of by you, Dad.
This watch is a message someone sent me.
Don't make me repeat the same words.
Anyway, it doesn't concern me.
The watch from the accident site,
did Detective Jeong Man Cheol find it?
And he contacted you to cover up that fact.
Of course, he must have received some bribe.
Stop talking nonsense.
On the day Jeong Man Cheol was murdered,
where were you?
What?
What I'm really curious about is whether you...
You... Could it be.. I-
I'm lost for words.
Asking this question as your daughter,
This is the last time.
You.. are not my child!
How can a daughter accuse her father of being a murderer?
Dad..
I don't have anything to say or listen to any more.
If you have definite evidence, bring it to me.
I assumed you also received it.
In my opinion, it might be intended to let us know where this Hope Market is.
Yes, well..
For now, from the beginning stop of the bus to the last stop,
we have no other choice, but to check each and every stop and nearby.
And one more thing, I'm keeping that message secret for now.
Because there is no concrete evidence that it's linked to Jeong Man Cheol case yet.
Yes, I'm still on vacation.
Once I arrive in Seoul, I will call you.
Yes.
Message? What does that mean?
What? Is it a top secret?
Someone... is sending me and Ajusshi the same messages.
What are the contents?
Just a photo.
I'm guessing it might be linked to the case from 12 years ago.
But I can't figure out what this culprit really wants.
If it's a case from 12 years ago, then Yi Soo?
Yes.
Will you be okay?
About what?
There are many other competent prosecutors.
Why you became a prosecutor, I know better than anyone else.
I also want you to correct the injustice for Yi Soo with your own hands, too.
But I don't want to see you having a hard time.
So if it's hard for you, you can run away.
It's not being a coward.
Somehow, I have a bad feeling (about this case).
Ajusshi also said the same thing.
So, you should make a decision more carefully.
Maybe it's wiser for you to step out of this case.
I know.
But I can't do that.
My mind tells me to run away, but my heart will not allow it.
But if it's really hard for me, I will run away.
So don't worry.
What are you talking about? Moving him to a VIP room?
A person who said he's your relative asked to move your grandfather to a VIP room,
and paid all the bills for your grandfather's surgery and room.
My relative?
Yes. Didn't you know?
When?
Just a moment ago, some man..
Did Grandfather's surgery go well?
What are you saying?
I came to pay the bill for the hospital admission with the money Ahjussi gave me, but someone already did it.
It wasn't you who did it, Ahjussi?
No.
Perhaps, might it not be Grandfather's relative or someone he knows?
There are no relatives.
Really?
In any case, it's a good thing since you've reaped some money.
For now, I got it. And take good care of Grandfather.
I can't guess at all which bastard it can be.
Those who know about this are only father, me, Jeong Man Cheol, and Prosecutor General, isn't it?
It's all in the past.
Don't get frantic about it.
Hae Woo seems to know about it!
Know? About what?
The accident twelve years ago. She argued whether it wasn't me.
And so?
I said it wasn't.
Though she didn't seem to believe it.
Hae Woo says she will reinvestigate the hit-and-run accident.
It's something that's past the statute of limitations anyway, but
losing face before my child...
A thing like saving your face isn't important!
Worrying first about the pain your child will suffer,
that's a father.
You don't have the right to be a father.
I'm home.
What happened?
Weren't you supposed to arrive tomorrow?
Our Prosecutor Jo needs to take care of something urgent, so we left one day earlier than planned.
Oh...
Are you feeling unwell? You don't look well.
Sick?
Since the chairman is in the middle of a conversation,
I think it'll be good to say hello later.
Yes.
Finding Hope Market doesn't look hopeful at all. Did I guess wrong?
To check all stops till the last stop, we still have a long way to go.
Ahjussi.
Later.
I'll tell you later.
It's too small for a shark to live, isn't it?
Since it seemed you liked sharks, I considered getting you one as a present.
But this tank is too small, so I gave up.
When I first met you, Mr. CEO, in Japan,
you were staring at a shark so intently.
This time, I tried hard to match your taste, but I don't know whether it's to your liking.
You've gone to too much trouble.
Not at all. As for the wall on that one side,
I left it empty as you instructed.
Yes.
And just in case you might be curious, I'm staying in #1211, in the same line as this place.
It's good to have you nearby.
Did you meet Mr. Kim Dong Soo?
Yes, he will be informed separately when he would start to work.
And, I didn't tell him that it was your instruction to contact him.
I understand.
Then, please rest.
Secretary Jang.
Yes.
Aren't you curious how Mr. Kim Dong Soo and I are related?
I am curious.
However, if it was something that I need to know, I think that you would have told me beforehand.
Really?
It's real, of course! Have you heard of Giant Hotel?
If it's Giant, isn't it a baseball team?
Not the baseball team, but the hotel. Giant Hotel. This oppa got hired at that incredibly global hotel!
For real?
And it's not a motel?
You tend to disregard me a bit, you know.
Ah, it's a joke!
Then, are you going to be a hotelier from now on?
Well, as that's not my type, so I declined that respectfully,
I'll be a kind of a road manager, the driver of the hotel's CEO.
Yah, that's a totally high position!
Congratulations!
Thank you!
If he's the CEO, he must be an old man.
Well, today I met only his secretary, but I guess he is old, a gramps?
Good for you!
Yeah!!!
By the way, that Miss Secretary is extremely pretty.
Of the women I've seen since birth, other than you,
leaving out Hae Woo, in any case, that...
What are you doing?
Uh? Nothing.
Uh, Mom.
What are you saying?
No matter how much I think about it, I've never participated in that event.
Really? It's for real, yes? Later, you won't say something different, yes?
Now I'm recording all of this conversation, you know.
Yes, I understand. Thank you.
Totally awesome!
Is it really true? Did you really win this prize from the event?
Yeah! They say I really won! This is for a power user of the site where I often visited!
Hey! This must not be a fraud or anything like that, right?
As I recorded the entire conversation, if this is a con, we can just sue them!
I feel like I'm dreaming!
I'm so happy, Mom!
Did you want it that much?
Very, very much!
Then, really, you should have said something. I would have bought it for you...
This is for professionals, so it's really expensive. There is only one person who has this one in my class.
Is it something that expensive?
As much as 4 month's of Dad's salary?
I understand.
Thank you for granting my bothersome request.
This is the last stop. What if there is no Hope Market here as well?
This is a place I know.
Yes?
I've come here before.
What are you talking about?
Ahjussi.
It's me. It seems that, after all, you
must watch over Hae Woo.
She's an intelligent kid. Please be especially careful.
You're right. This place.
Section Chief!
Oh! I was just about to give you a call.
What's happened?
I was looking for Hope Market. You showed me a picture.
I did that?
Yes.
These days, I really must be out of my mind.
Since I'm keeping my head on straight, don't worry.
Hello.
There's no one but a junior high student. And hard to talk to.
Isn't there any adult around?
About when will they come?
For now, let's leave. There's a place we have to go to.
I don't know sign language very well. I'm sorry. I'll come back later.
Is your name perhaps Jo Hae Woo?
Yes, that's right.
He told me to give this to you.
Who?
Ahjussi?
Which ahjussi? Is it someone you know? Do you know where he lives?
When did that ahjussi come by?
Yesterday.
It's Chagall's "Orpheus."
To find his dead wife, the man put his life on the line
and went down to the underworld
Orpheus himself.
My ideal man.
So? Did he find his wife?
Yeah.
However, because he failed to obey the order of the Lord of the Underworld, he loses his wife in the end.
What's the order?
Until you get to the world above, do not ever turn around to look at your wife.
In the end, Orpheus could not see his wife ever again and dies after yearning for her.
Don't turn around to look.
Why are we here?
Let's go in for now.
Ahjussi?
Let's first confirm if the key fits.
Excuse me, Prosecutor.
You didn't hear anything yet?
About what?
The last person the victim, Jeong Man Cheol, spoke with
was your father.
I thought it would be best for you to be aware of it, in advance.
Yes.
It looks like no one is here.
Pass me the key.
This is illegal.
It's the same symbol as the one at the place where Jeong Man Cheol was murdered.
Please explain.
You know something already.
Can you let us talk in private?
Excuse me?
Yes,
then I'll wait outside.
Yes.
12 years ago, a murder was committed here.
He was an instructor at the University. His name was...
I think it was Kang Hee Soo.
I was the investigating detective.
Han Yeong Man is the last person
who saw Kang Hee Soo alive.
The two knew each other?
No.
Chairman Jo Sang Gook is their connection.
You mean my grandfather?
Yes.
Prosecutor Jo's grandfather.
Kang Hee Soo met your grandfather for research for his thesis on the day he died.
Chairman Jo told Han Yeong Man to drive Kang Hee Soo home.
Are you saying Kang Hee Soo was murdered that night?
Yes.
After bringing Kang Hee Soo here, Han Yeong Man caused the hit-and-run accident on the way back.
Then on the next day, when Han Yeong Man was coming to confess,
he was murdered.
Han Yi Soo was certain that Han Yeong Man did not cause the hit-and-run.
You know that, of course.
Yes.
I also think the same.
Something doesn't fit.
In the locker at the train station,
Han Yeong Man must have left something that could be evidence.
And Han Yi Soo must have found it.
There is a high chance that they were killed because of it.
Three murder cases
are all connected into one,
if only we can find the motive.
You must be tired from all the searching today.
No, I'm fine.
You can continue.
It might get long. Let's talk tomorrow.
I already heard.
The last person that Jeong Man Cheol
talked to was
my father.
I already heard.
Yes.
I have
something to tell you.
As I expected, only you'd say that, Prosecutor Jo.
What?
Let's cool down a bit and talk tomorrow.
Ahjussi.
We need to sleep to rest up before saying something difficult.
Where are you?
What about dinner?
I just came back from the hotel.
You're okay, right?
Yes.
Call me. I'll pick you up.
It's fine.
Call me, okay?
Yes?
Come eat dinner.
I already ate a little something at the hotel.
I see.
Then rest.
By the way,
the guest who was at the cabin...
The one who is Korean-Japanese.
You mean Kim Joon?
His name is Kim Joon?
Yes.
By any chance, do you happen to know how old he is?
I'm not sure, but he should be around my age.
Why?
Just wondering.
I seem to be curious about everything these days.
I must be getting old.
Were you coming back from somewhere?
I was with my friends.
They always complain that I don't come to visit them even though I'm in Korea.
So I had to spend some money.
Are you going somewhere?
Yes, I
wanted to walk a bit.
Do you want some company?
No, it's fine.
You're not familiar with the streets though.
I'll go with you.
I'm more comfortable by myself.
Alright, I understand.
Then I'll see you tomorrow.
Are you okay?
I'm fine.
I'll make a doctor's appointment right away for tomorrow.
Don't worry about it.
But you're -
I know what's wrong.
I'm fine.
Mr. Chairman, do you not trust Mr. CEO?
I don't trust anyone.
I only trust myself.
But, there is one person I do trust.
That's you, Yeong Hee.
I can't see Polaris...
Aigoo, It's been a while! (in honorifics)
Why do you keep using polite terms? Do as you did before, please.
How can I do that to Ms. Prosecutor!
Did you come alone?
Yes.
Why?
Just because...
Did you have a fight? --No.
No. I had something to think about.
How is it that you are here?
Did you come alone?
Yes. And the director? (her husband)
I came alone as well.
Please have a seat.
No, that's okay.
I needed a drinking buddy, anyway.
Unless it's uncomfortable for you, please have a drink with me.
If so, I will take the liberty,
Although it's a bit uncomfortable for me.
You are honest.
Occasionally I lie too.
I'm occasionally honest.
By the way, it is really amazing.
How can we meet again in a place like this?
I came because Prosecutor Jo recommended it.
I did?
Last time...a place that specialized in Kimchi stew...
Ah.
Is that why you intentionally came (here)?
You seem tired.
Do I?
Yes. You look very tired.
I have a bit of a complex case.
I may possibly have to remove myself from the case.
Even the most complex problem is resolved in the end.
Because if there's a question, there also is an answer.
Sometimes there are problems that I don't want to solve, too.
Is this one of those cases?
Possibly...
May I ask the reason?
If...
a truth that you seek, President,
becomes a matter that makes you lose a person precious to you,
what would you do?
Never mind. I shouldn't have said that.
Everything returns to its own place.
From my experience, even if I avoid and run away,
the thing I must do eventually seems to return to me.
Having become an even steeper mountain to climb...
If you want to find the truth, sometimes you need the resolution to lose something precious.
Is that also from your experience?
Yes.
Buck up. Prosecutor Jo will do well.
For some reason, I'm cheered up.
I am glad.
Honestly,
I was looking for a reason to run, while I walked here.
Just thinking about that friend alone,
I shouldn't do that...
Come to think of it, every time I meet you,
some how I feel I'm being encouraged.
Thank you.
Oppa (her hubby) will arrive shortly. We can give you a ride home. Let's go together.
I'd feel more comfortable with a taxi.
Yes.
Suddenly it's showering?
The sudden coming makes it a shower.
I guess so.
Run away.
If it's hard on you, it's not too late to run.
Run as far as you can.
What you said is correct.
Eventually everything will return to its place.
Having become a bigger mountain...
It's okay for you to go ahead.
I'll go after I see you off.
That is not necessary. Oppa will arrive shortly. Go ahead.
Don't worry about me and go on ahead.
I'll do that then.
♫ I wonder, does she know about the love I couldn't bring up? ♫
♫ I wonder, does she know?
What's the matter?
What.. what's wrong? Is there a problem...?
♫ When I walk the road together with you ♫
♫ When our eyes meet ♫
♫ When I smile with you ♫ ♫ The whole world disappears ♫
♫ When I run my hands through your silky hair ♫
♫ I say I love you over and again ♫
♫In this way I want to remain♫
♫ When I open my eyes, ♫ ♫ I'm alone in my cold room ♫
♫ Which is full of reasons that I can't love you. ♫

Are you saying it's the same document?
It's different, Daddy. This isn't the key Oppa took. Are you sure?
Oppa?
