(Episode 28)
(Sung Hae Sung, Born in June 14, 1987, Died in June 14, 2005)
How...
How is...
How is this possible?
I...
died 12 years ago.
I don't know how I came back...
and why.
It's hard for me to accept who I am right now,
but my friends and family...
have already accepted me.
I always felt uneasy because I felt like I was...
deceiving you.
I'm really sorry.
I kept thinking it would've been better to have met you...
another way.
It would've been much better...
if I was just a normal 31-year-old, and I had met you as...
Tae Hoon's older brother.
"How nice would it be..."
"if I could go back in time and didn't have to die like that?"
I keep thinking that over and over again.
I'm truly sorry for not having told you...
the truth.
He'll be okay, right?
Hi, there. Are you Ms. Hyun Kyung Eun?
Who are you?
I'm...
Detective Shin Ho Bang of Mapo Police Station.
What do you want?
Aren't you friends with Ms. Yoon Mi Na?
I don't know who she is. I have no idea.
Wait.
Hold on a second. Ms. Hyun Kyung Eun.
Excuse me, Ms. Hyun Kyung Eun. Wait a minute.
Hey, don't you know Yang Kyung Chul?
Wait, Ms. Hyun Kyung Eun.
Stop! Ms. Hyun Kyung Eun.
What on earth is he talking about?
What's up with her?
Goodness.
(Yoon Mi Na)
Mi Na, the detective came to see me just now.
What?
So what did he say?
I don't know. I just took off right away.
Kyung Eun, I need you to go off the grid for now.
Okay. I should do that.
I'll send you whatever you need.
First, turn off your phone.
Okay. I'll contact you soon.
Young In, are you really dating Vice President?
No, he's my older brother's friend. I've just known him for a long time.
You're really not dating him?
No, I'm not.
Everyone knows that Vice President is seeing someone these days.
Then whom is he seeing?
Whoever she is, I'm so envious of her.
Didn't I tell you? I told you she wasn't dating him.
That's impossible, isn't it?
No, Young In is the one I'm seeing.
It's true we're dating each other.
Tae Hoon, why did you do that?
Come with me.
Gosh, this feels so nice. I feel so much better now.
Tae Hoon, what on earth are you thinking?
Why? It's not like I was lying.
But this is where both of us work.
What's so bad about dating someone from work?
Don't worry. Just trust me.
Lunch break is almost over.
Five more minutes.
- No. - Then three more minutes.
No, I have to go back.
Instead of a hug...
Gong Joo, did you eat?
Of course. Daddy ate a lot of tasty food.
So you have to eat a lot too, Gong Joo. Okay?
Yes, I will call you again.
Okay, bye.
All right. Let's eat.
Hae Chul.
Why are you eating ramyeon?
If you're done with work, should we have a meal together?
There's a chicken soup restaurant. You like chicken soup, don't you?
Why are you here?
Just because.
I wanted to see you.
How do I look today?
When we just started dating,
you said you fell for me when you saw me in a blue dress.
After hearing that, I only wore outfits in blue.
I don't want to hear it. Leave.
When we were together,
we were really happy.
Don't you remember?
What about you? Don't you remember?
Six years ago,
Gong Joo couldn't even crawl,
and I didn't even know how to hold her.
You abandoned us.
You left us and ran away.
I didn't abandon you.
You haven't called me for six years. That's called abandonment.
You left us because you didn't want us.
I...
didn't leave you two...
because I didn't want you.
Then did you leave because you wanted us?
Because you love us so much, you disappeared without saying a word?
At that time,
it was hard for me too.
Nam Yoo Min!
You said you didn't like me when I was like this.
You said you couldn't live with me.
So leave now.
I told you to leave.
Leave already.
Get out of here. Get out!
Hey, what's the matter?
I haven't changed a bit. So get out of my sight!
Calm down.
Goodness.
I just checked the ingredients that were just delivered.
Good job.
The restaurant opening is right around the corner.
What is Mr. Cha going to do?
I can't even call him first.
(Mr. Cha Min Joon)
It's Mr. Cha.
Answer it.
Yes, Mr. Cha.
I picked up this phone.
Are you with the owner of this phone now?
What is this about? Where are you calling from?
I was hiking, and I saw a phone on a cliff under the trail.
I looked around, but I didn't see anyone.
Was he hiking alone?
Is there anyone who could be with the owner of this phone?
Did something happen to him?
What happened?
I searched the area down from here, but I couldn't find him.
We'll go up this way then.
Then we'll go this way and take a look around.
Okay.
Let's go.
Mr. Cha.
Mr. Cha!
Excuse me. Did you see a guy who's about this tall by any chance?
He has fair skin and a small face.
No, we didn't.
Where did he go?
Let's go that way.
Okay.
Mr. Cha!
Mr. Cha, are you all right?
Mr. Cha.
What are you guys doing here?
What is going on?
I made you guys worry so much.
I'm sorry.
I'm so relieved that nothing happened to you.
Thanks.
I appreciate you guys worrying about me and coming here to find me.
Thinking about how worried the two of you must've been because of me...
is making me feel...
so much better.
Oh, right. The restaurant will open soon.
You guys can't be here right now.
I work at the gallery now.
I quit, you know.
So what? Will you guys not help out?
(Do Gallery)
Chef, Ji Soo.
What are you all doing here?
Mr. Cha, we're really sorry.
Please allow us to work with you again.
You were so good to us.
We're so sorry.
- We apologize. - We apologize.
Please accept us again!
- We'll do our best! - We'll do our best!
Please let us work with you again.
- We want to work with you. - We want to work with you.
By the way, how did you all hear...
about this restaurant?
Hae Sung came to see each of us to ask us in person...
if we'd want to work with you again.
Hae Sung.
I'll talk casually to you from now on.
Sure.
I'm sorry, Hae Sung.
I'm talking about what my dad did to you.
I'm not sure what I can do or say...
to apologize to you.
Please don't worry about it.
And you don't need to feel bad...
about keeping it from me. That's...
totally understandable.
Hadn't you come back,
we wouldn't have been able to meet.
Thanks for coming back.
Can I give you a hug?
We'll deliver this tomorrow, right?
When Ms. Hyun bought this, she was...
with another woman.
Are you sure they were together?
I already told you.
It looked like that woman bought it for your teacher as a gift.
She was the one who paid for it.
I see.
She bought a painting for Ms. Hyun as a gift.
They must be very close.
Why is she acting like she doesn't know her?
I'm saying I don't know her because it is the truth.
I heard you were the one who hired her...
for the teaching position at Chungho High School.
Who told you that?
I confirmed it with Ms. Woo Mi Jin who worked with her back then.
It's not like I can hire whomever I want for the teaching positions.
That is not true.
I see.
We also found out that you bought a painting for Ms. Hyun as a gift.
We have a statement from a gallery attendant,
and we also checked the receipt from the purchase.
But how can the two of you...
not know each other?
I don't know her.
Well...
Does she know your weakness?
Why are you doing all this for her?
Mom.
I bought it for you, so that you can wear it to my nephew's wedding.
Thank you, Ms. Song.
Thanks so much, Mom.
People are watching. Don't make such a fuss about it.
Thank you.
I really appreciate it.
I want to go to the spa since I'm already here.
Then what about Young Jun? We'll have dinner together, right?
Please go ahead.
I'd like to check out a few books at the bookstore downstairs.
All right. I'll see you again at dinner, then.
We'll be quick.
All right, take your time.
Young Jun.
I'm sorry.
The man at the hospital...
Young In.
Is this why you deserted all of your siblings...
and became a successful doctor?
To bend over backwards for rich people?
Is that why you cut ties with us?
Young In.
You should at least live confidently after leaving us so ruthlessly.
Don't you have any pride?
This is why...
we've forgotten about you.
(Do Gallery)
Please be careful with it.
Please don't worry.
Hey, Ho Bang. The delivery truck is leaving now with the painting.
Ms. Hyun has completely fallen off the grid,
so let's try this.
Okay, I'll see you there.
Ho Bang.
Hey, do you think she'll be inside?
Let's go and find out.
This way, please.
Thank you.
Would you like me to hang the painting for you?
Oh, just a second, please.
Ms. Hyun.
Gosh, hey.
You don't need to hang it. Please leave it there.
- Sure. - Mom.
- I'll leave it over there. - Okay.
Ms. Hyun, may we have a word with you?
(Taesan Hospital)
Young Jun.
Soo Ji.
I came because I have something to say to you.
Let's talk somewhere else.
Did you view my patient's file?
Patient Sung Soo Ji.
Pardon me? Oh, yes. I did.
Do you know her?
No, I don't.
I told my son that I'm going to go to the supermarket.
So make it quick.
Okay, then I'll get straight to the point.
You remember Yang Kyung Chul, right?
He died in Chungho High School's art room 12 years ago.
On the night of his death,
I heard he left the house after getting a call from you.
Is that correct?
Yes, I called him.
Why did you ask him to come back when he had already gone home?
I called him out to scold him for something.
He wasn't even a member of the art club.
Why did you have to call him to the art room...
to scold him?
What are you talking about? I met him at the back gate of the school.
"The back gate"?
Yes.
I caught him hiding cigarettes in the art room.
That's why I scolded him. That's all.
Is there a problem with that?
We're still checking if that could be a problem or not.
Around what time did you meet him?
I called him around 7:30pm.
And when I met him,
it was around 7:50pm.
I was looking at the clock inside my car while I was waiting for him,
so I remember very clearly.
After we finished talking, he went back to school.
Did you see him go inside?
It seemed like he had agreed to meet another student from our school.
I saw them going inside together.
I seriously told you every single thing I remember.
I'm going to go now.
Wait.
Why did you lie and say you don't know Ms. Yoon Mi Na when you do?
That's because...
I think there was a misunderstanding between us.
I feel like you won't believe what I just told you...
if I don't tell you the truth.
So I'll just tell you everything.
Yoon Mi Na, the wife of Chungho Foundation's chairman,
was once married to my older brother...
when she was in the US to study abroad.
Their marriage life ended after six months.
Then, she returned to Korea.
But I guess she hadn't told her current husband about her past.
My brother came to Korea. He didn't call you, did he?
What? He's in Korea?
Why?
He gathered money to start a business, but it failed.
So he escaped to Korea.
He's a wanted criminal now.
What are you talking about? Does that mean...
he's being chased by the police?
I don't know where he is and what he's doing.
I wanted to let you know just in case he goes looking for you.
Hey, why would he come looking for me?
It's been over 30 years since I've seen him.
What kind of rubbish are you talking about?
That's why I said "just in case".
I can't believe you still get nervous because of him...
after all these years.
My husband doesn't know anything about him.
You know what will happen to me if he finds out, right?
Yes, I know. So don't worry.
Let's go.
Okay, I'll put my trust in you.
That's why I pretended not to know her. There's no other reason.
I'm sorry. I'll keep this confidential.
I can't believe I told you this.
I don't know why you questioned me about Yang Kyung Chul,
but I told you everything I know about that night.
I'm going to go now.
Then that means...
Good work.
Let's go.
I just remembered something on my way back home.
Yes, please tell me.
It's about that student who went into school with...
Yang Kyung Chul that night.
I saw you and Young In at the department store yesterday.
I see.
What is it that you need to say to me?
I don't like seeing our other siblings...
hate you.
People might doubt you, but I already know where you were...
on the night of Hae Sung's accident.
Can't you just tell everyone where you were that night?
That student was wearing a cast on his right arm.
"A cast"?
I'm sure of it.
He was wearing a cast on his right arm.
Anyway, this is seriously everything I know.
You guys heard her, right?
Yang Kyung Chul went into school with a guy wearing a cast.
Jung Won, you were in the same class as Yang Kyung Chul.
That's right.
There was a guy wearing a cast in my class.
Do you remember who he was?
He was friends with Yang Kyung Chul.
He was wearing a cast because he had hurt his arm.
If he went into school with him,
that means he was with Yang Kyung Chul at the time of his death.
Then...
does that mean he's the culprit?
