Shadow!
You're the torturer!
It is you!
I'm certain it's you!
How come it took so long to recognize you?
It's the face I couldn't forget even in my dreams!
You don't know me?
Don't you remember me?
Look at me closely!
You don't remember me? You can't remember me, you bastard!
I am...sorry.
I begged you to just kill me instead. I pleaded with you so much...
I was like a living corpse. You'd killed me again. Then, /i>
you brought me back alive again.
Do you sleep well at night? Do you eat well?
I have never slept restfully at night!
You made me live like garbage, garbage!
This was all your doing! This was all your doing!
Please stop.
Please. Please, just stop!
Episode 19
Don't try to change.
You must see it to the end.
Han Yi Soo.
. . . cannot take the call right now . . .
Yes, Ahjusshi.
Are you saying he confirmed the truth with Professor Yoon?
Could it be thi..this person?
It's not that person.
It's this person.
Prosecutor Jo Hae Woo.
It's Jang Yeong Hee.
I'm sorry to bother you. But could you check and see if President Kim is at home?
He just stepped out. What is this in regards to?
Do you happen to know where he went?
He did not say. Have you tried contacting him?
He is not picking up his phone.
Is this urgent?
I will call you again later.
Prosecutor Jo!
Yes?
The President took
his gun with him.
What brings you here?
Where is the chairman?
He's in the library. I'll let him know that you're here.
No.
Wait.
Talk with me a little.
What is it?
I should have resolved it like this from the beginning.
Yi Soo is in the library.
He locked the door from the inside.
Please find the key for me.
Only the chairman has the key.
A man like you
shouldn't have existed in the world.
Evidence, truth, proof...
it is just an extravagance to you.
Be honest with yourself!
You've lost confidence even in the truth, haven't you?
You...don't even have a right
to utter the word "truth".
Do you think you have a right?
You and I are different!
The spot, Cheon Yeong Bo, you stepped up from
is a graveyard of numerous innocent people,
who you've trampled along the way.
You sound like quite the national independence fighter.
That from a small pathetic man who couldn't even overcome a trivial thing like vengeance.
Shut your mouth!
Don't do it, Yi Soo!
It will be in vain if it ends like this.
We won't be able to right what's wrong.
And, you will be the only one to become a murderer.
You are trying to escape, right now.
Just like I tried to, you're trying to escape, right now.
The thing you've been looking for thus far is truth.
Even if you have encountered a frightening truth, which you could never have imagined,
you must not flee!
It's not of our making.
You, and also I,
must keep doing what we can.
You can't finish in vain with one person's death, Yi Soo.
Your father, he tried to bring light to the truth.
To repent for his wrongdoing and seek forgiveness for himself
is not something just anybody can do.
Don't make Chauffeur Han's death be in vain, Yi Soo.
Please don't throw yourself away.
Shoot me.
It isn't bad to die by your hands.
The fact that one can't deceive blood
is something that you, who's a murderer's son, will be proving in the end.
Why are you hesitating?!
There's only the two of us, you and me, here.
You mustn't, Yi Soo. You mustn't!
You mustn't!
Even if I die, I have no regrets.
I absolutely will not regret the life I've lived.
To survive the horrible era,
I resorted to expedient decisions.
Horrible era?
Who do you think made it horrible?
It's people like you.
Who do you think made it possible for your generation to live in luxury?
For the future of a country constantly at war,
I do my best even now.
No one has the right to pass judgment on me.
I'm a patriot!
As I expected you are beyond redemption.
You don't deserve to die peacefully.
Grandfather.
Grandfather, are you okay?
I regret
trusting you
and devoting my life to you!
Yi Soo.
You must not think about bad things.
Okay?
Hae Woo.
Are you okay?
I'm not okay.
It must have been hard.
It must have been very hard.
It's really Chairman Jo, Father?
The criminals for today's kidnapping and Father-in-law's case are different.
Father, are you disappointed that I came back alive?
Why are you being like this, Father-in-law?
Hooray for the Korean Liberation.
Hooray!
Now the beginning and the end makes more sense.
Han Yeong Man killed Kang Hee Soo and must have gotten his hands on the documents at that time.
You're saying Chairman Jo used Han Yeong Man to kill Kang Hee Soo for the document?
No, I don't think so.
What do you mean?
Looking at Kang Hee Soo's crime scene, it was an accidental murder.
It's always bothered me that there was no evidence left behind.
If there were no fingerprints, then it must have been planned.
I can't be sure. But if Han Yeong Man was the murderer, then it must have been accidental.
Why do you say that?
Before Han Yeong Man was murdered, he told his son that he was going to reveal the truth.
Until now, we assumed that he was referring to the document.
However, I think he was going to confess about murdering Kang Hee Soo.
Plus, he was murdered right in front of a police station.
But that doesn't change the fact that Han Yeong Man murdered Kang Hee Soo.
Or, that he was a torturer.
That's true, but it's not easy in deciding to confess.
Han Yeong Man also said that he had to meet someone for the last time.
I think he was going to meet Kang Hee Soo's family.
That's impossible.
Why do you think that?
Oh, I just thought he wouldn't.
What brings you here?
I had something to ask you, Team Leader.
To me?
Yes.
It's been a while.
Yes.
I'll be leaving now.
Okay.
What is it that you want to ask?
Tell me the truth, without hiding anything from me.
The one who killed your father was Han Yeong Man.
It's true. I personally witnessed it.
There is no evidence as of yet
that Choi Byeong Gi was hired by Chairman Jo.
We're dealing with Chairman Jo, so it's nearly impossible
to track any financial compensation made for the assassinations either.
I can't believe this.
Not anyone, but Grandfather? I can't believe it.
I understand. Hae Woo felt the same way.
Right now, there is no other way but to arrest Choi Byeong Gi
to get a confession that he was hired by Chairman Jo.
Do you know what is in the document?
I haven't seen the document itself, so I can only assume.
What are you assuming?
It's better that you don't know right now.
Team Leader.
When the truth is revealed, it's not too late to know then.
The phone you're trying to reach is unavailable...
Yes, Ahjussi.
You still can't reach Yi Soo?
What?
His phone is turned off?
What is that bastard planning to do?
It must be hard for him to accept.
Everything that Yi Soo believed in
has been shaken to the core.
I'm so nervous.
What if he's thinking about something bad?
No,
he wouldn't.
Okay.
He wouldn't.
By the way, Hae Woo.
Yes.
Joon Yeong just dropped by.
Oppa did?
President Jo's bank accounts, within Korea,
detailed joint purchase of buildings in Japan and US
and the details of paper companies is in it (the drive).
You've worked hard.
It was nothing.
You're on tomorrow's AM flight?
Yes.
I hope it will be a fun trip.
You say it was a horrible era?
Who is the very person who made that era so horrendous?
It's because of people like you.
010-730-2315, call incoming.
This is Chairman Jo Sang Gook, right?
Who are you?
I am Kim Soo Hyeon.
I am Kang Hee Soo's son.
I don't think you have a reason to call me.
I thought to negotiate a deal with you.
What deal?
You know all about it. I've been duped by Han Yi Soo all along.
I thought about how I could repay Han Yi Soo
and decided to call you, Chairman.
And so,
what kind of deal are you offering me?
Since I'm doing what you want me to do,
you have to give me what I want.
If you don't like it, then just leave it.
What I may want?
That's right.
Do you think you can get rid of Han Yi Soo?
Is that all?
Honestly, I wanted to finish off Prosecutor Jo as well.
That would be the most painful thing for Han Yi Soo.
Don't touch Hae Woo!
It's enough as long as Han Yi Soo disappears.
Of course.
What is it that you want?
Five billion won.
In the end, it's money?
There's no way for a murderer to stay here in Korea, right?
$50,000 in cash. Send the rest, as a check, via Choi Byeong Gi.
Send it via Choi Byeong Gi...
It's a shame, but only one person's dead.
Even if it's Choi Byeong Gil, I want to get rid of him with my own hands.
Because he's the person who ruined my father's life.
You were also planning to get rid of him anyway, right?
Choi Byeong Gi and Han Yi Soo, I will take care of them.
However, there's one condition.
You have to show conclusive evidence that Han Yi Soo is dead.
The money comes after that.
Of course, that's a given.
You can't change your words later on.
I recorded our entire conversation.
When you finish your work, contact me.
If all goes well, it'll be two birds with one stone.
And even if it goes wrong, it'll catch one of the two (Ref Korean chess strategy).
Today, there's someone I have to meet.
Friend
It's me.
Where are you?
Are you home?
I'm outside.
I'll come to you. I need to see you.
Is there... Is there something wrong?
That's not it. I'm just thinking of having a drink with you. That's all.
I don't think I can make it today.
I'll see you tomorrow, Soo Hyeon.
I understand.
Soo Hyeon.
Yes.
I'm sorry.
Why are you saying that?
I'll call you tomorrow.
I will look forward to it.
I'm sorry to disturb you so late at night.
What is it?
Was there someone who lived near Goo Doon station (train or bus), among the people who were imprisoned with you?
I came here because I want to know.
Why do you want to know that?
My father's keepsake was left at the locker of that station.
The person my father went to meet,
I finally know who it was.
I don't understand what you mean.
The torturer called the Shadow
is my father.
What?
It's me, Chairman.
What is it?
Where are you right now?
I'm with a precious guest.
If it's not something important...
The president took the gun with him.
For what reason?
I don't really know.
I hope he's not going to Chairman Jo.
And so?
I thought you may have needed to know.
I understand.
Why not run a joint venture with our Gaya Hotel on the business-hotel project?
I'm in the process of gathering the funds.
Did the Chairman also consent to this?
Don't worry about that.
In the not too distant future, this, Jo Ui Seon, will become the chairman.
I heard you met with reporter Kim.
Apparently, reporter Kim called the bureau chief to apologize for his mistake.
I'm embarrassed to face you.
I heard you blocked the story.
The thing I was most scared of was
you knowing about it.
Now, everything has become useless.
I asked him repeatedly, but I guess
the bureau chief must have slipped up while he was drunk.
I know this comes as a shock to you.
The reason I shared it with you, knowing that it'll shock you, is
because you're the only person who can be a guiding light to Hae Woo now.
Hae Woo is being used by Kim Joon.
The person who revealed this picture is also Kim Joon.
Do you have confirming evidence on that?
I have personally talked to Kim Joon.
He did not refute it.
Though I know it's a shameless request, but when I phoned twice,
Hae Woo wouldn't listen to anything I say right now.
But, it might work if it's someone else.
In my opinion, I think it's best if you and Hae Woo
went abroad to a foreign office of our company.
Out of sight, out of mind, it's said.
I think it's the priority for the two of you to leave Korea for now.
I will think about it.
That's right.
I am really ashamed to see you.
The picture...
I will take it with me.
Is Hae Woo home?
She went out not long ago.
Joon Yeong.
Do you have something to say?
Today,
Yi Soo...came to this house.
Mom, should I just quit?
Hey, I barely got your aunt to part with her treasured thing.
Hello?
It's Oppa.
Wait a moment.
Hey, who's calling that you have to go to your room?
A friend.
Is it section chief Kim?
What were you doing?
With mom...
Dinner...Did you eat yet?
Of course.
Why does your voice sound so low?
Are you sick?
Yeah, right.
I've got a problem with too much energy!
Oppa.
How about we go to Dad's (grave)?
You haven't gone to greet him.
If the section chief comes to pick me up, I can go out.
I think it will be hard for me to go tomorrow.
Hmm.
Really?
Then call me when you have the time.
I will.
Dad will love it so much.
It was always just me complaining to him.
Uh-huh.
Even if you're bored, don't ever go by yourself.
Never go out by yourself, okay?
Alright. Call me tomorrow.
Okay, sleep well.
Han Yi Soo.
Your heart seems to be shaken.
It seems I have to tell you.
- What-? -Honestly,
there was someone else who came by with the same exact picture.
The same picture you say?
A man who looks to be in his 20's.
He asked who the "Shadow" was.
Is he perhaps someone you know?
I couldn't get through to you. I was worried.
Come on in.
No.
Since I've seen your face, it's fine.
♪ I would rather hate you.
♪ The more I hang onto 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 will be in vain
♪ because time will somehow pass us again.
♪ I'm sorry for still thinking of you, for still loving you.
Don't come here anymore.
What are you planning now?
Don't come here anymore.
This isn't your fault.
Don't blame yourself.
Why do you think I'll blame myself?
Compared to what Chairman Jo has done,
my father's crime is nothing.
I know that's not the truth.
The truth . . .
I wavered because of you, it's true. But not any longer.
Yi Soo.
You're only an obstruction to me.
So please, don't ever appear in front of me again.
What exactly are you planning now?
Leave.
-Yi Soo. - I said, leave.
Tomorrow,
I will come again.
♪ The more you try to forget, the more you, who are approaching, really hate
Don't come.
♪ Being unable to see and reach because of the distance.
♪ I will smile so you will not know my heart completely.
We should...
go home now.
Even when I thought Yi Soo was dead, you two were
connected by a thread that couldn't be seen.
I have known it all for a long time.
But I thought,
it would be fine as long as I loved you.
But nothing has changed.
I will protect you,
so that you won't be hurt,
and protect you from any pain.
That's my love.
Until now,
I have done nothing for you.
No,
if I had done nothing to you,
that would have been better.
For making you
wait for me,
hurting you,
and for putting you in a lot of pain,
I'm really sorry.
That's love too.
You know that.
I don't want to
put you through any more suffering.
I won't let you go.
Even though Yi Soo will live forever in your heart,
I can't let you go.
This contains all the financial reports of the secret funds of Gaya Hotel.
What?
It's quite detailed.
Who reported it?
It was anonymously sent to my house last night .
Is there anyone else who knows about this?
Prosecutor Park read it already.
But that's all.
Why are you so careless?
We're dealing with Gaya Group.
Please understand that I did the best for you, Director.
Has Secretary Kim come in yet?
No.
He hasn't called in either?
His phone is turned off.
You can leave.
This is Director Oh.
Yes, Director Ahn.
A report?
What is it about?
What are you doing?!
Is it true that you've been making a secret fund?
Secretary Kim
doesn't keep secrets very well.
Don't tell Father.
I'm taking care of it.
The Prosecutors already have the files.
What are you talking about?
Someone reported it, but...
Where are you going?
I have to tell Father, so he can stop it.
You realize now
what has been protecting you.
The moment you step out of my shadow,
you're nothing but a shell. Don't you forget it.
Did you call?
I have a favor to ask.
A favor?
Give this directly to Prosecutor Jo.
Hae Woo?
Yes.
What is it?
It's very important.
You have to personally hand it directly to Prosecutor Jo.
Well, that's not hard...
I was a delivery man, remember?
Please take care of it.
Don't worry, I'm really good at delivery.
I'll deliver it speedy quick.
Okay.
By the way, please forget what I said about being disappointed in you. I didn't mean it.
Don't worry about it.
There are a lot of things I'd like to say, but I'll first take care of this.
Even though we use our mouths to talk,
we have to eat on time.
Mom, Han Yeong Man's son is here.
When my son was arrested during the demonstration . . .
Yes, I thought that once he was released, everything would be fine.
But the person who returned to me,
was my son who looked like a corpse.
On my way back from burying my son,
I made a vengeful vow.
That I would kill, with my own hands,
the torturer who killed my son.
After which, I would follow after my son.
About 3 years later,
that bastard came to me.
He came in front of me and started pouring out tears while asking for forgiveness.
So I said,
"If you die in front of me, I will forgive you."
Then he said he couldn't because he had children.
After that,
he came back every month, but I never allowed him to visit me.
He came continually for 10 years, even though I wouldn't see him.
Then one day...
It was the anniversary of the day my son died.
He visited again,
saying that he came to say his final goodbye.
As I watched him cry in front of me,
I thought about
how hard it must be
to have hell living inside of him.
You said that he's your father?
Yes.
I don't know why you're asking about the past,
but since I'm meeting you like this,
let me ask a favor.
Please ask.
Tell the world
that there are unfortunate people like my son,
and to please not forget about them. Please do that for me.
No one listens to me anymore.
I'm old and uneducated.
So I don't know where to begin.
You're young,
so do that for me.
That's my request.
It's me, Soo Hyeon.
I have something to tell you.
When is a good time for you?
Any time is okay, even right now.
Then let's meet later tonight.
I'm not used to meeting in daylight.
Okay. Where should we meet?
I'll call you back.
Okay. I'll wait for you.
It's Kim Soo Hyeon.
Prepare the cash for me.
Today is D-Day.
It's me.
There's something you have to take care of.
Don't worry.
When I arrived home, Father was already done talking to the influential people.
The prosecutor in charge, Kim Yeong Won or something, seems a bit strait-laced.
But he's just a prosecutor.
There's nothing to worry about.
But,
it's Secretary Kim who ratted me out, right?
That jerk...
How can I help you?
Oh, I need to see Prosecutor Jo Hae Woo.
Wait, you can't just barge in there.
Hae Woo!
I can go in, right?
Dong Soo, what brings you here?
Our secretary told me to give you something.
Secretary Jang?
Yes.
Come in.
You don't need to bring coffee.
What is it that you need to give me?
Here. This.
The truth about Cheon Yeong Bo.
What? What is it about?
Thanks.
The phone you're trying to reach is unavailable...
The USB that you sent with Dong Soo,
is it from CEO Kim Joon?
No, it's not.
Then was it Chairman Yoshimura who had it?
I can't answer that. I'm sorry.
I understand your position, Secretary Jang.
But why did you send this to me?
I think that you're the only one who can finish this.
What do you mean?
Mr. CEO has the files with the same documents,
but he's probably not going to send them to you, Prosecutor Jo.
He doesn't want to hurt you anymore.
I want to help Mr. CEO, but I can't figure out any other way to help.
And,
I'm not in the best position to do so.
I know that this will make it harder for you, Prosecutor Jo,
but I know you're stronger than me.
So I thought you would find a way somehow.
Does Yi Soo know about your feelings too?
What do you mean?
Okay.
Thank you for trusting me.
Let's get going.
I think there will be a lot to do from now.
Is it going to be okay to make this public?
I gave it to you so that it'll become public.
Can you write an article for it?
The only evidence is the black and white photo.
The evidence is a bit weak, but since it's an exclusive, they'll like it.
But, is it really okay?
It's not.
But, someone must do it.
Well...
Does Joon Yeong also know?
I must tell him.
Honestly, I don't understand why you're doing this,
but I'll call you after.
If I have to finish writing before the deadline, I'll be busy.
I'll go ahead.
Thanks, Jae Myeong.
The child's mom who died in prison, you said her name was Kim So Hyeon?
Yes.
The child's name is Kim Soo Hyeon.
He left here in 9th grade. There aren't any records after that.
Yes, Ahjussi.
Is Section Chief Kim at the office right now?
No, why do you ask?
Kang Hee Soo's son is Kim Soo Hyeon.
What?
Section Chief Kim is Kang Hee Soo's son.
What did you say?
I think Section Chief Kim is Yi Soo's helper.
Section Chief found out that
Yi Soo's father tortured and murdered his father.
I hope this won't happen, but he might be trying to take revenge on Yi Soo.
The phone you're trying to reach is unavailable...
It's me.
Okay. I'll meet you there.
Throw it away.
What...
What do you mean, throw it away? This is worth going on the front page.
It's an exclusive!
You're saying you'll write an article based on assumptions?
But you saw the picture.
It's only a copy. It can be a fake.
I already checked. There wasn't anything done to this picture.
We're talking about Jo Sang Gook.
So?
You know very well how wide Chairman Jo's influence is.
So, we can't touch him at all?
Yes!
And, don't waste your time on writing an article without proof.
It won't end with just your resignation.
What if!
Everything in the document is true?
What if it's all true?
Journalist Go.
Nothing will happen, don't worry too much.
I was waiting for you.
I'm sorry, Soo Hyeon.
You can say that to my father after you die.
Thanks.
You don't have to thank me.
I am able to earn 5 billion won because of you.
Stop the car.
What?
The signal stops here.
Call the rescue patrol, and the police.
An ambulance too. Quick!
