(Episode 46)
Doctor, do you have the result?
I do.
Judging by her injury, it happened when she was young.
(Calling Shin Do Hoon)
What was the cause?
It was most likely crushed.
I can't tell you more except that it was a machine.
Do you know what happened?
A machine? I've never heard of that happening.
(Uncle Tae Jin)
A machine?
Do Hoon, there you are.
Do Hoon, what took you so long?
Mo Ah's alive. This isn't her.
She doesn't have a rod in her ankle.
Right?
Can I take a look?
Are there...
Are there three rods?
Yes, that's right.
Was her ankle crushed by a heavy machine?
That's right. How did you know that?
This is...
This is Mo Ah.
It's not her.
She never hurt her ankle.
She did at a brick factory.
A brick factory?
The one next to your orphanage?
She, Mo Hyuk, and I were playing there once...
and her foot got stuck in a machine.
Are you saying that...
this really is Mo Ah?
No way.
Was her injury sustained from a brick making machine?
That I can't tell for sure,
but I guess...
I guess it's possible.
Although, I'm not 100 percent sure.
No...
This isn't Mo Ah.
Mo Hyuk would've known.
She hurt herself while saving him.
We thought he'd worry,
so we didn't tell him.
Honey.
This is impossible.
This can't be.
Hang on.
Is that really Mo Ah's body we just saw?
I heard recently that Mo Ah was spotted in Gangwon Province.
I had my speculations,
but I had no idea this'd be Mo Ah.
Did...
Did you do something to her?
Of course not.
We found her after she had committed suicide.
We knew it was a possibility the moment she disappeared.
No way.
Do Hoon.
Do Hoon, is that...
Is that really Mo Ah in there?
Yes, it is.
This wasn't supposed to happen.
All I wanted was to shut down the trial.
Myung Sook,
you should forget about it now.
I feel bad for Mo Ah, but it is what it is.
I...
I need to rest.
I didn't think that she'd be so upset.
We should tell her the truth.
No.
It's best that she believes this to be true.
If not, she'll waste time...
trying to find Mo Ah.
You surprised me.
I didn't think that you'd ever lie about Mo Ah like that.
Good job.
Mo Hyuk, are you sure you don't remember?
- I mean... - Stop pestering him.
He said that he was too young to remember.
Then it must be Mo Ah.
Do you know anything about the accident?
No, but you said that Do Hoon arrived late.
He couldn't have known how the ankle was crushed,
unless it was true.
My gosh.
I truly believe that it wasn't Mo Ah.
Tell me about it.
Who knew that the metal rod would be used to identify her?
We would've been better off not knowing.
So much for the brief moment of hope.
When will the police be done with Nam Koo?
They offered to lower the charges if he confesses,
but he's still not talking.
He may be a lot of things,
but he'd never cause accidents on purpose.
I can't believe that someone was injured.
What if that someone was badly hurt?
What will happen to Nam Koo...
if it really turns out to be his fault?
We must hope that it isn't.
That's all we can do right now.
There aren't any cameras nearby,
and Nam Hui swore that she brought the tool box home,
so how did it end up there?
I might not see Nam Koo today either.
I was just passing by.
How's the business going?
I'm glad you're here.
Why?
Can you lend me some money?
Money?
Sure.
Life has nothing to offer anyway.
How much do you need?
About 50,000 dollars.
You should know that I'm in a bad mood today.
Still, I was willing to lend you the money.
I don't appreciate the joke.
It's not a joke.
My brother's been arrested.
Why? Did he get into trouble?
Something happened. Anyway, how about that money?
I don't have that much to lend you.
Besides, your situation is better than mine.
My family's a mess right now.
My family's a mess too!
So how about that money?
Actually,
I'm here to borrow money myself.
I'm her uncle, but I can't even...
Forget it.
What now?
Tae Jin,
you should help with the funeral arrangements.
I don't know if her family would let me.
Of course they wouldn't. I wouldn't either.
Mom, you seem guilty.
You really must feel guilty.
We were family, after all.
How's Jae Min?
He keeps on asking for his mom.
I can't lie to him any longer, so what are you going to do?
Mr. Shin, can I ask you a favor?
I'd appreciate it if you come to the police station.
Nam Koo might have to serve time.
Who is it?
It's no one.
(Delete message)
What will you do about the funeral?
Mo Ah's family will take care of it.
Jae Min should be there.
It's his duty as her son.
Don't be absurd. His mom is the one who...
You're right. She is his biological mother.
That's why he should get the chance to say goodbye.
Aren't you worried about him?
I, for one, don't want to shock him.
That's rich coming from someone who's been on a business trip.
Where were you anyway?
Grandma, when's mom coming home?
Jae Min,
you must hate me for sending your mom to the US.
No,
she said that you are nice and kind.
Did she really?
Did she say that about me?
She said we should live together because you're nice...
and because she'd be too busy to take care of me.
Mother, can I throw these out?
I found them in Do Hoon's drawers.
- What's all this? - It's my mom's.
Grandma, can I keep these?
You can't.
There's no harm in keeping one.
I'll throw the rest out then.
That'd be too harsh.
I'll take them to her aunt instead.
When are you going to tell Jae Min about her?
Not right now.
It's best to tell him after he starts elementary school.
Isn't it better to tell him now?
Young Hwa,
a person died.
Show some compassion.
These are Mo Ah's.
I couldn't throw them out, so I brought them with me.
Doesn't her brother...
remember anything about the accident?
So that's what you came here to ask.
He doesn't know about it.
He doesn't know,
and unfortunately, no one in our family knows either.
How could you be talking like that?
What?
How could you not know about the accident?
Didn't you even check on her over the years?
How could you?
Unbelievable. You must be out of your mind.
I looked into it all.
It turns out that there used to be a brick factory nearby.
So?
Thank you so much for letting me know that.
You must be here to check if Mo Ah really is dead.
You must be glad that she's finally out of your life.
- Are you satisfied now? - Sure.
I'm the one who kicked her out.
I kicked her out because she was of no use to us.
If I knew she'd kill herself, I wouldn't have.
Besides, I was going to compensate for making her leave.
You've got to be kidding me.
Is that really all you have to say?
She died for crying out loud!
That's why I'm here!
I'm so sorry.
I'm truly sorry.
I know you won't forgive me, but I came to say that.
I'm really sorry.
Grandma, you'll never be able to throw that at her.
Mom, please calm down.
If you're that upset, just say a few words.
There's no need to worry.
We all know that she'd never be able to do it.
You wait and see whether I do it or not.
How dare you step foot into this house.
What's going on? Is this salt?
My gosh.
Mother, how could you throw salt at her?
Well, she should be glad that it was only salt.
Shin Ae, there's no need to be rude.
I'm all right.
I'll get going then.
Honey, was she here to pick a fight with you?
No, she came to drop off Mo Ah's things.
Proof? What proof?
Our tool box was at the accident site.
I still don't get how this happened.
It's not like it can walk, right?
Of course it can't. Don't be silly.
Oh no.
What is it? Do you remember something?
I think I left it there.
What? But you said you brought it home.
Someone distracted me on the road.
Oh no.
I can't believe you!
Why didn't you remember this sooner?
I'll run over to the police station.
Wait for me!
Why did you bring her to see me like this?
Don't be mad at her.
I asked her to take me.
Hear her out first.
Nam Koo, this is what happened.
- I left the tool box... - Nam Hui, go home.
No, I won't go without you.
Can I talk to Nam Sil alone then?
Okay.
Why won't you at least hear her out?
I don't need to. I know it's her fault.
You do?
Then why haven't you said anything to the police?
Because they'll punish her instead.
She didn't mean to hurt anyone.
If we tell them the truth and ask for forgiveness...
Forgiveness?
Don't you see the mess I'm in?
What if they put her behind bars anyway?
I'd rather stay in jail forever than see that happen to her.
I get that you're worried about her,
but she isn't a child.
She should take responsibility and we can help her through this.
Why are you being overly protective?
You don't need to know.
Now take her home.
Nam Hui's intellectually disabled.
Nam Koo knows that she'd be treated differently...
which is why he's keeping quiet.
Nam Sil, what's going to happen to Nam Koo?
Gosh, I'm such a fool.
Nam Hui,
I really had no idea.
About what?
Can we still be good friends like we've been so far?
Would you rather not?
I could always tell the police the truth.
Would you be able to?
No, I'm scared.
Who should lead Mo Ah's funeral then?
It should be you, Dad.
That's not appropriate.
It should be Mo Hyuk.
I can't believe you'd be this inconsiderate.
Don't you remember how Do Hoon wanted to make the arrangements?
Still, it can't be him.
He's her ex-husband for goodness sake.
Who cares? It's not like he registered his new marriage.
My heart breaks every time I think of him crying that day.
I'm on the fence.
Judging by their relationship, it should be Do Hoon.
Mo Hyuk, what do you think?
I'll do it. That's the right thing to do.
Honey, what do you think?
This isn't up for debate. It can't be Do Hoon.
Even Ms. Hong came by to apologize.
Besides, this is what Mo Ah might want.
I'd hate to see him be upset that we didn't ask.
You want me...
to arrange her funeral?
That's right.
You can send her off.
- Why? - Are you kidding me?
Well, I didn't want to ask,
but I remembered how you wanted to before.
Did I?
I must've talked nonsense while I was intoxicated.
Did you just say you talked nonsense?
Unbelievable.
Were you putting on a show by crying that day?
Anyway, this is hard for me too.
I see.
Now that she's dead, you want nothing to do with her.
You don't need to arrange anything.
Mo Hyuk can take care of things himself.
Still, how could you say that...
you were talking nonsense?
Did you agree to make the funeral arrangements?
Ms. Jung,
could we have a word?
Please have some tea and let your anger subside.
I'm not angry since I knew how this family treated Mo Ah,
but I didn't expect that from Do Hoon.
He may come off cold, but he's hurting inside too.
Since the news, he spent most of his time drinking.
Who cares when he's like this now?
I'm sorry,
but he can't lead the funeral.
As you know, he has remarried.
I never asked him to take on the role.
I came here as a courtesy since he begged me last time.
How about this?
I'll have him be there for the entire funeral.
Don't bother.
If I could, I wouldn't even have this funeral.
You should go to the funeral.
Mom...
You promised you would, and you should.
What's gotten into you?
It's my fault that this happened.
Anyway, it's your duty to send her off in peace.
We owe her that.
I'm sorry, but I won't.
They say that there's nothing worse than a woman's grudge.
I'll make sure that Young Hwa understands.
I said I'm not going.
Shouldn't you be going even if I tell you not to?
There's no need for me to go.
It's not even Mo Ah's funeral.
What are you talking about? I know you don't want to go,
but how could you say such...
Hang on.
Did you...
Did you just say that it isn't Mo Ah's funeral?
Yes, that's exactly what I said.
But you said it was her.
Did you lie that day?
Why did you do that?
Uncle Tae Jin told me...
about the whole scheme.
What?
You didn't want me to think of you badly,
so I kept you in the dark.
How could you?
How could you fool me as well?
My gosh.
Attend Mo Ah's funeral.
Stay until she's put in the ground.
That's the least you can do.
Dad.
Why should he?
I've never heard of an ex-husband doing that at his ex-wife's funeral.
You should go with him as well.
I just heard that the victim isn't Mo Ah.
I didn't expect him to tell you so soon.
Unbelievable.
You should've told me about this, too.
Then you wouldn't have apologized to her aunt.
It's better for us...
if they carry on with the funeral without suspecting anything.
Tell Do Hoon to pay his respects.
If he changes his mind, they'll know something's up.
Fine, I hear you on that.
Mo Ah must still be alive then, right?
If she were, she'd have shown up by now.
Dead or alive, she's never of any help.
Will you attend her funeral too?
Of course. I wouldn't miss it.
I picked out her best shot.
Look how pretty Mo Ah is.
I never thought I'd be picking out a photo for her funeral.
If I had known,
I wouldn't have brought the kids home.
If I hadn't, Mo Ah and Do Hoon would still be happy together...
even though they were penniless.
No one knew that this would happen.
If we had, we would've just let them be.
I know you don't want to go to the police.
I'm too scared.
Do you remember what you said to me before?
"Darkness will fall,"
"but it'll soon be cleared."
That's what you told me.
When?
You wouldn't believe the strength it gave me.
Now it's your turn to be brave.
Nam Sil.
Can't you say that it's your fault?
Sure, I could.
But life won't get easier for you if I do.
Why not?
Because you have a kind heart.
You'll feel sorry and regret letting me take the fall.
If that's not the case, I'll tell the police I did it.
I'm scared of public servants.
They yell at me for no reason and tell me to get lost...
even though I did nothing wrong.
This time I did do something wrong, so they'll give me an earful.
I'm sure it'll be fine if you tell them that it's a mistake.
Besides, if you don't take responsibility,
you'll be hurting your mom and Nam Koo.
Is it because I'm stupid?
You're not stupid, so show them you're not.
Shin Do Hoon went to his ex-wife's funeral.
He's not picking up.
Talk about bad timing.
I feel sorry for not being able to pay my respects.
What are you doing here when it's cold outside?
I'm going to show you.
Show me what?
I'll show you how brave I am.
What are you talking about?
Nam Sil said that...
telling the truth will clear the darkness.
I'm going to tell the police that it was my fault.
I'll ask them to let you out of here.
Darn it. Where's Nam Sil?
She's out front.
Whatever you have to say, say it to me.
I'll take care of this, so go home.
I don't want to. Nam Sil said...
Stop it. Stop listening to her!
Listen to me and go home. I'll be out soon anyway.
Nam Sil told me...
that I was only hurting you and Mom.
What?
I won't let my family suffer...
because of me anymore.
I'm scared of what will happen,
but I'm going to be brave and tell the truth.
- Nam Hui. - Don't stop me.
I'm not a kid.
I'm your older sister.
What kind of a sister would I be...
to let my brother go to prison?
Do as I say.
What if Nam Hui gets locked up too?
Gosh. Why haven't they even called?
Goodness.
Nam Hui, you're back.
Are you all right?
I thought that the police locked you up as well.
Where's Nam Koo?
He's going to be sentenced to 10 years.
What?
Unless I'm a better son, I'll be imprisoned for 10 years.
My gosh. What's going on?
Did they let you go?
This is all thanks to Nam Sil.
She gave me the courage to speak up.
That's absurd. Nam Hui did this on her own.
Nam Koo, show her your gratitude.
Nam Sil, I want a word.
Instead of a few measly words, make him buy you dinner.
Don't put Nam Hui in this position again.
Why not? Don't you see how proud she is of herself?
That's exactly my point. The world is too scary for her to...
Forget about it. Just don't do this again.
She should know how scary and beautiful the world is.
Mom and I have already tried.
You know nothing.
You don't know what she had to go through.
This world is hard for even us,
so can't you imagine how cruel it's been to my sister?
You can always teach her.
The world is a scary place, but it's still a good one.
She has her mom, you,
and me.
You just don't get it.
You should leave.
You're the one who doesn't get it.
I know that I can be stubborn,
but you're a disaster waiting to happen,
so leave.
Get out of our house!
Fine.
You should know this though.
The person who's ruining Nam Hui's life...
is you.
What did you just say?
You weren't helping by protecting her.
Why are you two bickering again when everything's been sorted out?
Nam Sil, are you going somewhere?
I told you to leave.
Don't.
She wouldn't dare to, so don't worry.
Don't go!
Why do you keep telling her to leave when you don't mean it?
What? Of course I mean it.
Should I tell her to leave then?
Mom and I can't stop her if she decides to,
so tell me if you mean it.
Forget about it. I'll get going instead.
Good.
Nam Sil, come on. Let's watch TV.
Where are you off to now?
To a funeral.
I'll go with him.
I can't believe that no one is here to mourn her.
Do Hoon, why isn't anyone from the office here?
Everyone's busy right now.
You should ask them to come.
Funerals are supposed to be loud...
so that the deceased won't be too lonely.
She's right.
Their condolence money is for her to spend on her last journey.
I'm sorry for your loss.
Thank you for coming.
I see that your wife isn't here.
That's odd for someone who cried and apologized yesterday.
I'm sorry.
She said she'd come later.
It's all right. We're fine on our own.
Do Hoon, you can leave too if you're busy.
He'll stay until the very end.
Excuse me.
Are you the husband of the late Ms. Jung?
I am.
Could you sign this for me?
Her family wants to bury her, so all I need is your signature.
Just cremate her.
That's not her family's wishes.
Hey.
(Cremation)
Don't you know who I am?
- I do. You're from TMO Group. - Then...
just cremate her.
Yes, Sir.
- You didn't have to come. - I won't stay for long.
Gosh, look how gaunt you are.
It'll help me sell the lie.
Did you make sure that she'd be cremated?
Yes.
Good. That way, we'll leave no evidence.
Is anyone in her family suspicious?
Of course not. They believe that it's Mo Ah.
(Recording)
While we're at it...
(Recording)
(I Am Sorry, but I Love You)
Thank you, Mo Ah, but our ties end here.
I'll ask you one last time. Is she really dead?
What do you think of my resume?
Please leave. Intellectually disabled?
Keep thinking that way so I can find my sister.
