(Episode 23)
Don't trust that man.
Eun Young fell,
and I testified that she was the culprit...
all because of Jae Yeol's orders.
He played with...
my daughter's life.
Open it, Hyun Chul.
- Bring the master key. Hurry. - Bring the key.
Hyun Chul.
Open it, Hyun Chul!
Do you have proof?
Why?
Are you going to hide your husband?
I need it too.
Tell me...
everything you know. I beg you.
Hyun Chul.
When your daughter got in the accident, I found that heel...
and Jae Yeol's ID.
- For handing over his ID, - Hyun Chul.
I got money for my daughter's hospital bills.
Open the door, Hyun Chul!
What did you see at the scene of my daughter's accident?
Tell me everything. Hurry up.
The license plate number of the car leaving was 5937.
It was going toward Cheongpyeong. That's all I know.
I said it was Eun Young because Jae Yeol made me.
Make sure you go see my daughter.
The evidence is there.
- Open it! - Hyun Chul!
- Move. - Give me the key quickly.
Miss, you have to trust me.
Take him away!
Are you all right?
Did you get hurt?
His daughter died.
He's out of his mind, so he probably spoke nonsense.
Don't worry about it.
"He's out of his mind, so he probably spoke nonsense"?
Why?
What did he say?
After Min Ji died,
is that what you thought of me?
When I begged you to find that woman,
did you think I was speaking nonsense?
This is different.
Hyun Chul is a criminal. Do you know...
how dangerous you were a moment ago?
He came at me because he was so desperate...
and earnest.
You have no idea.
I know very well.
Did he say...
anything to you?
He said not to trust you.
Don't worry.
There's nothing more that will take me by surprise.
Even if you stayed quiet, you might've not been proven innocent.
Why did you make a mess and stir up the situation?
I told you to say it.
I told you to tell me if you had changed your mind.
Why didn't you tell me then? Why are you doing this now?
Sir.
Do whatever you want.
It's your life. You get to choose.
The hit-and-run suspect...
is not Eun Young.
Then why did you lie?
Who told you to lie about such nonsense?
What are you doing?
Mr. Kang Hyun Chul.
Don't you want to see your daughter?
Let him go to Chuncheon.
Make sure you take him yourself.
Yes, sir.
Eun Young, you have the permission to go home.
- You can go now. - Why all of a sudden?
Hyun Chul testified again and said it wasn't you.
We also checked the hospital footage on the day of the accident.
We have a guarantor as well,
so we have no reason to keep you here.
Who was the guarantor?
Superintendent Han's wife.
Why aren't you leaving?
What is it?
You're doing me a favor already,
so you could have booked a flight ticket to Canada for me.
I got my bag stolen, so I have no money.
Why are you doing this to me?
Fine.
I lose.
The proof...
that you had something to do with my sister's disappearance...
is all gone.
So go home then.
(Superintendent Han Jae Yeol)
"Han Jae Yeol".
"Superintendent".
Until we meet again,
stay here.
It's more fun to drop you when you're up high.
It's more thrilling for the person who's falling too,
so...
don't move an inch from this position.
(Superintendent's Office)
What do you have in mind?
I barged into the superintendent's office...
to humiliate him.
Why?
Are you worried that I'll take out the pictures from his affair?
He has such good reputation.
I made a big fuss and said he was the thief,
but he didn't even sustain a scratch.
You're not a suspect anymore,
but I reported Hyeon Joo.
What were you scared of?
I don't know why you didn't report her missing...
and struggled alone.
It'll be easier now...
to find her.
That's what I wanted.
But...
if you want to make this easier, you should ask your husband.
What do you mean?
Your husband...
I hate to think this way,
but if not,
I can't explain what happened to me.
You know how I got threatened.
If it was just an affair, do you think he would have done this?
It's just your suspicion.
It's not the truth.
I respect you.
You never get swayed. You're just perfect.
If you don't have any evidence,
don't speak of it so lightly.
I'll get going.
Of course, I remember.
The sister of the tenant at Room 802 came...
and took a video.
There was a minor collision in the parking lot.
It wasn't resolved, so the man living next door...
kept the dash camera video just in case.
Do you have his contact information?
I gave it to the sister.
I don't know.
All right.
Why are you back again?
Can I have the contact info of the person...
who used to live in Room 801?
I gave you the business card.
Something happened, and I lost it.
He gave it to me, so I just passed it on.
I don't have his contact information.
I'll give you my number just in case.
Sure.
Earlier, a woman came by...
and asked for his number too.
Where were you?
I was worried about you, so I came home early.
What do you want me to do?
Eun Young fell,
and I testified that she was the culprit...
all because of Jae Yeol's orders.
Your husband...
Aren't you ashamed to call yourself a dad?
What if Min Joon finds out? Why are you letting people say that?
What if people criticize you and point their fingers?
Why do you have to hear that?
Tell me exactly who said what to me.
Then I'll give you an answer or say you're wrong.
What is it?
Who told you what?
Before you are my husband...
and before you're the superintendent,
you're Min Joon's dad.
You can hurt me all you want,
but don't do anything...
that will harm Min Joon.
I won't forgive you for that.
Hello?
Hi, we have some good words to share.
It's okay. We're Buddhists.
Oh, dear.
We're also Buddhists
We have some good words to share.
This house has such a good vibe.
We're actually Christians. Please leave.
- Do something else. - Is your husband...
in the leasing service by any chance?
I can feel the vibe.
If you pray a little bit more,
his business will grow more.
- Hallelujah. - Hallelujah.
So?
What do I have to do so that my husband...
gives me a building ownership?
You have to have firm faith...
How could you take somebody else's husband?
Husband?
Yes!
My husband!
It's you.
The witch who's pretending to be his wife.
Hey!
- Hey! - Please.
Let go!
How could you hurt the real wife?
Oh, gosh. Stop it.
Oh, dear. Stop it!

I'm going to report you.
Go ahead.
You're the adulteress. You should be ashamed.
I'm going to call Secretary Yoon and kick you out.
Right, Secretary Yoon.
There was him.
What are you going to make him do?
Do you know him?
You made him take out your trash, fix your drain,
and recycle. That Secretary Yoon...
is my husband.
Hwa Sook, let's go.
Why?
Get a memorandum stating she'll leave your husband alone.
You really...
shouldn't live like this for your kid's sake.

[VIU Ver] SBS E23 Secret Mother "Don’t Trust That Man" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
You. Where did you go, and what did you do?
Why ask when you already know?
How dare you go over there?
How could you beat up a woman caring for...
a child preparing for a nationwide exam?
You even pulled out her hair.
Why did you barge into that quiet house...
and turn it into a total mess?
My gosh.
How could you say that to me?
Think about the grades.
Her son wins all the top awards...
in every competition he takes part in.
What did Chae Lin ever win?
After spending all that money.
- A participation prize? - So what?
You weighed our kids based on their awards?
And you're angry with me?
How could you do that?
Why are you yelling at me when you're in the wrong?
You didn't even go by yourself.
You took Secretary Yoon's wife and beat her half-dead.
Are you proud of that?
What did you say when I was pregnant?
You'd never wanted a child but now that we had one,
you had plans.
I was going to raise her on my own, but you got divorced...
and said you'd make me happy forever.
You said Chae Lin could do whatever she wanted.
That's what you said to persuade me!
You said you'd be a good dad, and look at you now.
What didn't I provide?
She lives well, eats well,
and goes to a good school. She should get good grades.
You're a mom, and you failed to educate your kid.
How dare you shout at me?
Go back there tomorrow, and apologize.
Beg on your hands and knees.
If you don't, I'll go to her and never come back!
My gosh!
What are you doing?
Hwa Sook.
I asked what you're doing.
I'm sorry for everything. I did wrong.
Just don't kill me.
- I... - Shut your mouth!
Is what...
I'm thinking really true?
Are you really sure?
I am...
pretty sure.
I'll ask just one thing.
You'd better answer properly.
Okay.
This house.
Did you touch it or not?
I told you to answer properly.
You see...
I was determined to get back...
Just answer the question!
Did you touch it? Did you?
Just a bit.
I got a loan...
and was going to pay back before you found out.
The stock market isn't what it used to be...
Seung Soo!
Hwa Sook.
Won't you yell some more?
What for?
Will it bring what we lost back?
We must sort things out as quickly as possible.
You should've told me if it had happened.
Then you wouldn't have gotten in such a huge mess.
Yes. You're the best and all I have.
Thank you, Hwa Sook.
- Get me more. - Okay.

Hello.
Sorry to bother you so late.
I want to ask you about Kim Ye Eun.
Aren't you that detective from before?
What is it?
Did you ever...
see this man?
It looks like that guy.
Ye Eun had almost no visitors,
but he came dressed so nicely, and I found it strange.
Did Kang Hyun Chul...
Did Ye Eun's dad meet with him in private?
I did see them go out together.
And you didn't hear what they said?
No.
- What? - Bad news.
Kang Hyun Chul disappeared.
What?
He disappeared while I went to the toilet.
There's no one here, so we have no witnesses.
- Search the building. - Okay.
Kang Hyun Chul!
Darn it.
Kang Hyun Chul.
No.
(Cheongyeon Natural Burials)
What were you doing while Kang Hyun Chul disappeared?
I apologize.
I apologize. It was my fault.
Get out.
I lost him.
We decide if that's the case.
Please leave.
Did you not sense his change of heart?
What...
change of heart?
It wasn't any random location. It was his daughter's funeral.
You should have watched him more closely.
Why did you allow him to commit suicide?
What nonsense are you saying?
- Excuse me, Lieutenant Ha. - He just died.
Why are you concluding that it's a suicide?
A 42-year-old man who was arrested...
for car theft and attempted murder...
was found dead this morning at his daughter's funeral home.
According to Seoul Gangnam Police,
he was detained...
but visited his daughter's funeral...
accompanied by officers.
He fell from the top of the hospital building.
- Police are investigating... - I had something to watch.
- with suicide being likely... - I was going to turn it off.
- due to his change of heart. - Hold on, please.
According to the police, the suspect...
started committing crimes...
to pay for his daughter's hospital bills...
and started stealing cars...
before finally getting arrested.
It's only been a few hours since Hyun Chul died.
Why are they already saying it's a suicide?
You were getting questioned. Why are you out here?
Why are you playing with the media already?
There's no evidence that it isn't.
There's no evidence to prove it's a suicide either.
And this happened because of whom?
You insisted,
and the superintendent said you could take Hyun Chul.
You should have kept a close eye on him.
Lieutenant Ha.
What are you doing in the middle of interrogation?
I won't do it.
I'm going to quit!
I'm sorry, sir.
I think he's too shocked.
(Chuncheon Hoban General Hospital)
(Episode 24 will air shortly.)
(Episode 24)
He wasn't in good circumstances,
so he didn't have much in the hospital room.
Does he have any other family members?
There was nobody at the funeral home.
His daughter was in the hospital for a long time,
but hardly anybody came.
He was arrested, so the funeral couldn't proceed either.
What a pity.
Nurse,
can you change the IV for the patient in Room 207?
- Did you check everything? - Yes.
Thank you.
(Recordings)
(Jae Yeol)
Are you coming in the afternoon too?
- Where... - I'm going to the school by 1pm.
Go where?
Don't go.
The teacher confirmed with me in the morning.
I'll go first.
Hello. Nice to meet you.
I'm Han Jae Yeol, Min Joon's dad.
- Hello. - Hello.
I'm a police officer. Do you know what police officers do?
- Yes. - Yes.
These days, the police do more...
and help people who have difficult circumstances.
The school you're in right now...
has a designated officer too.
If there are any difficulties you face while in school,
please let your teacher know right away.
Then your teacher will tell the officers,
and we'll try to resolve...
your problems.
Eun Young is going to Eastern Hotel.
Follow her and bring her...
belongings and handbag.
I tried to take her bag during the day but failed.
So what? Are you not going to do it?
Don't you need money for Ye Eun's surgery?
What if that woman gets hurt?
Don't worry about her. Do as I tell you.
You told me to do it.
You said nothing bad would happen if I trusted you.
Let them arrest you first.
I'll take care of the rest.
How can I trust you?
Aren't you going to think about Ye Eun?
Don't you need money for Ye Eun's surgery?
If you get arrested quietly, I'll be responsible...
and pay for the rest of the surgery.
Thank you for listening to me speak.
See you again.
Thank you.
- Dad. - Thank you.
He's my dad.
Is something wrong?
The superintendent is out of his office right now.
Are you all right?
It's okay.
It's nothing.

what's underneath the calm surface,
you have to jump in, right?

(20th anniversary of founding)
What's this?
The man next to Hyeon Joo.
He worked at a police station in Busan.
(May 18, 2005)
2005...
Then...
how long did they know each other?
While he was dating Hyeon Joo,
I heard he married a woman from a good family.
I told her to forget about him,
but I don't know if they kept on seeing each other.
When I saw the doctor,
I thought I recognized her.
She was in the magazine Hyeon Joo kept.
That's how I knew her.
He's the husband of the doctor, right?
Why did Hyeon Joo...
endure for so long?
How do you think she felt?
Not only did she have nothing,
but she lost her man as well.
It might have been her lifelong regret.
If she had...
done something bad to their child in that mindset,
it makes sense that she's hiding somewhere.
I don't want to think about it like that, but...
I've been holding onto my belief...
that she wouldn't do that...
and that there must have been a misunderstanding,
but being stubborn about it was not the solution.
If she had been hurt for so long,
it could be possible...
that she had planned all of this.
I don't know what else I need to do.
You've done enough.
You should live your life.
When things calm down,
Hyeon Joo will reveal herself too.
Gosh.

- Ms. Kang. - Mr. Min.
Why are you greeting my wife?
Can't I call Ms. Kang, "Ms. Kang"?
- Gosh, you... - Honey.
I'm sorry to have made you come here.
I made...
I made a grave mistake.
Did you make him like this?
- What? - Did you...
make my husband's face like this?
I...
Oh, no.
He looks so hurt.
Gosh, your nose must be broken.
The glasses don't stay put.
My nose was like this all along.
You're right. I think it broke.
Oh, my.
His nose is bleeding.
My nose is bleeding more.
It must have been because of me.
Did you fight because of me?
Are you their guardian?
Yes, I'm Jung Seong Hwan's wife.
It was an assault on both sides.
I'm sorry.
There was a reason for it.
But it was 2 to 1.
2 to 1?
He was sitting next to their table at the bar.
But Jung Seong Hwan and Min Tae Hwan...
started the fight first.
But they are the ones that got hurt,
so I think you should make an agreement.
So these two didn't fight against each other,
but instead, they were hit by him?
Yes.
(Police Station)
Why did you call me?
You could have made an agreement by yourselves.
Hey, don't ever let me see you again.
Hye Kyung, it hurts so much.
Give it to me.
Is it Mr. Min?
No.
It is him.
What is it? Is he saying he got hurt more?
Why did you meet him?
If you hadn't come home...
on his back drunk,
I would've never met him.
I really didn't know it was him.
Yes, I'm sorry for everything.
I did wrong.
Is that an apology?
It's just that I'm not saying anything,
but you did...
I'm willing to let it pass. You should be thankful,
but your attitude says otherwise.
So?
What do I have to do so that my husband...
gives me a building ownership?

Where are you going at this hour?
I had so much dinner, so I needed to take a walk.
What about you?
I love the night air, so I was about to take a walk.
- Let's walk together then. - Take me with you.
I need to exercise...
Exercise, my foot.
I came outside because I was so angry.
I need to vent my anger.
When you're angry,
drinking beer is the best.
It's too late today, so we should just take a walk.
- All right. - All right.
All right.
I...
don't ever drink at home.
I'm afraid I'll go to...
my husband's house when I get drunk.
- Your husband's house? - Right?
The house two doors away.
It's been a year since we started living separately.
I didn't know you had such problems.
You know,
kids' scores lead to moms' dignities these days.
Soo Min is the top of the year,
so I thought your life must be on the top too.
I didn't think you'd have any problems.
I made Soo Min study because that was all I could do.
I read and solved questions with her...
as if I were studying...
and picked her up from school.
When I'm busy like that,
I don't feel lonely anymore.
I understand.
I'm making Chae Lin study hard...
because if she does well,
people won't talk about my past or my job.
I wanted to change my status...
to Chae Lin's mother, whose daughter is good at studying,
from the Song Ji Ae of the past.
But my husband doesn't understand me,
and he...
He's cheating on her.

You're not really divorced, are you?
Everyone must have noticed.
It's just for the papers.
I wanted my son...
to have a better life than mine.

No matter how hard they study, they can't...
change their lives like we could.

we're someone's mom.
It's hard to be honest.
I wonder how Yoon Jin is doing.
She's not like us and can't speak freely.
But then,
even if I ask what she has...
going on with Ms. Kim, it's not like she'll tell me.
She stays closed up.
That'll only make it harder on herself.

- Hi. - Hello.
How are you?
Are you coming back?
- I am. - See you around.

Are you two having problems?
Check if she applied to return to work.
Okay, I'll check.
Before the board meeting, I plan to...
tell the chiefs about Yoon Jin's diagnosis.
Her dismissal will be voted for in secret,
but we must set things up before then.
Don't worry.

You keep covering it up.
I will keep revealing the truth.
I just can't tell how much she knows.
(Neuropsychiatrist Kim Yoon Jin)
Kim Yoon Jin speaking.
- Save me. - Hello?
Save me.
Hello?
At around 10am, a local...
fishing in Hojeong Reservoir found the car.
We believe it's the car that was...
involved in the hit-and-run of a six-year-old girl that...
happened nearby on March 2, 2017.
A shard of a headlight found at the scene...
came from the same model of car that was found in the water.
Registered owner is Kim Hyeon Joo.
How long has she been missing?
On the evening of the accident,
her phone was turned off near Namyangju.
We couldn't find her since.
No trace at all?
No.
All the belongings found in the car,
a wallet, phone, and bag,
were all Kim Hyeon Joo's.
It's been so long that we can't tell...
if the car was driven or pushed in.
All her belongings were found in the car.
The registered owner's been missing since the day of the accident.
Suicide is the only explanation.
Two divers are searching the scene as we speak.
This morning, close to where we found the car,
they found an item of clothing that could be a woman's.
We'll approach this case as if it's a suicide.
You do that.
Isn't that wrong?
We found no body parts.
We can't make assumptions.
Sir.
The investigation's still ongoing.
Please stop people from assuming it's a suicide.
Whether it's the police or media, can't they offer up options?
I have no cause to prevent even that.
What do you think about Kang Hyun Chul's death...
that was closed as a suicide?
It was suicide based on what the team found.
When Kang Hyun Chul fell,
he had a natural burial site brochure in his back pocket.
(Cheongyeon Natural Burials)
He was unable to be there when his daughter died,
so he'd gotten the brochure from the staff to put her to rest.
A father who cared about a burial killed himself 20 minutes later?
I wasn't even able to mention...
the possibility of a homicide.
From the moment it happened,
everyone was busy to assume it was suicide.
That's why...
you shouldn't assume suicide.
Discuss the details of the case with your team manager.
I'll reveal it myself.
Kim Hyeon Joo and Kang Hyun Chul.
Was it unfair to assume they committed suicide?
I will find out.
Okay.
Do your job.
Sir.
Here.
(Seoul Gangnam Police Station)
It's my fault.
(Lieutenant Ha Jeong Wan, suspended for 2 months)
How could they?
A two-month suspension?
I'm sorry.
I'll say I lost Kang Hyun Chul.
I'll appeal for you.
Don't bother.
(To Toronto)
(Reservation complete)
Hello?
(Evidence)
We're searching the area where the car was found.
Since it has been a year,
the body may be difficult to find.
We'll keep looking for...
Kim Hyeon Joo with other methods.
The car found three days ago in a reservoir in Namyangju...
was driven by the perpetrator of a hit-and-run that happened...
in the area over a year ago.
Kim, the owner of the car, has been missing since...
the day of the accident.
Based on the evidence from the scene,
it's likely she took her own life after the accident.
Sources from the police say they can't get statements...
from witnesses or the perpetrator,
so they will close the case promptly.
I'll come home early. Let's have dinner together.
I will be really good to you.

I look forward to working with you.
