(Episode 71)
Woo Cheol. Are you drawing?
Yes.
Who's that woman?
It's Hwa Kyung.
Why do you keep drawing me?
What did you see that day?
Did you see me with Ms. Han?
I saw. I saw everything.
I see.
You saw everything.
Woo Cheol.
Can I buy you a soda?
I already had soda.
What's delicious is soda. Soda is delicious.
But if I have too much, I'll get a cavity.
Woo Cheol.
Did you tell anyone...
about what you saw on that day?
Yes. Hwa Kyung is wearing a dress.
The dress is pretty.
I like pretty things.
So I draw pretty things.
So pretty.
What were you going to say to Jae Bin?
You already know what I was going to say.
You're very cruel.
You wanted to ruin my life on my wedding day.
Wasn't it enough that you kicked me out of Miseong?
But this isn't just your life.
That's Hwa Kyung.
Hwa Kyung hurt Mom.
It looks like Ms. Han recorded the conversation when she met her.
Why do you think she did that?
Hwa Kyung probably did something that she shouldn't,
and my mom tried to stop her.
She got into the accident when she tried to stop her.
Hwa Kyung is a key suspect.
It's not like this is a video. We can't say she's a suspect...
by using a noisy voice recording as evidence.
You need decisive evidence.
Can't you call her in as a testifier?
I was going to start with that.
Detective Park, please find out the truth.
I ask of you.
The police called.
What did they say?
They're going to question Hwa Kyung as a testifier.
Were you aware of this?
Yoon Do Bin and Han Woo Jung are included on the list...
of the potential employees for Miseong Station.
There's a bigger problem.
What is it?
I'm busy. Why did you want to see me here?
Han Woo Jung, have you gone insane?
I wish I was insane.
I cannot forgive you, Hwa Kyung.
How can you do that to my mom?
How can you try to kill her?
What's this nonsense?
I tried to kill her?
Do you know what that means?
Are you trying to turn me into an attempted murderer?
I heard you and Mom talking in the stairwell of the wedding hall.
It was recorded on her phone.
What are you talking about?
She warned you to not do something,
and you tried to stop her.
Tell the truth.
What did you do on the day of your wedding?
Did you try to kill her?
Shut up.
I don't feel that way right now,
so don't make me want to kill you and Ms. Han.
Stop provoking me!
I'm going to find out the truth.
Just you wait, Hwa Kyung.
Yes, this is Shin Hwa Kyung.
What did you say?
A questioning as a testifier?
What? They called Hwa Kyung?
They only call it a testifier. It means they think she's a suspect.
If Hwa Kyung gets questioned by the police,
the media will begin to attack Miseong...
as if they think this is their perfect chance.
Yes, and the chairman will get furious because his priority is...
keeping Miseong's good image.
He'll even try to get them divorced.
No, we have to stop this before Dad finds out.
I need your help.
Then will you help me out too?
- Mom. - It's "aunt".
Mom!
Tell me.
Woo Jung reported me to the police...
as an attempted murderer.
So? Is the police coming after you?
Mom, you knew?
They said I'm only a testifier,
but I'm sure they're suspicious of me. What am I going to do?
Mom, help me. Please stop this.
If Grandpa finds out, he'll get me divorced...
for damaging Miseong's image.
Of course, I'll help. You're my niece-in-law.
I can't let you sit at the police station.
I knew you'll help me. Thanks, Mom.
You should thank your dad... I mean, your uncle.
Dad is going to help out?
Yes.
But you know what, Hwa Kyung? Everything comes with a price.
A price?
If we help you not get framed as an attempted murderer,
you might have to do something very difficult later.
What is it?
The tea smells especially great today.
You must have heard the news from Jae Bin...
if you visited me like this.
Do you really mean this?
Do you want me to work for Miseong Station?
Why? Do you think I don't mean this?
Why is it me?
You aren't someone who would choose me...
just because I'm Jae Bin's brother.
You're right.
This might sound random,
but your parents did a great job in bringing up their sons.
Thanks to them,
Jae Bin is more interesting than I imagined.
I'm glad to hear that Jae Bin is...
fitting in at Miseong.
Yes, if you come and help him out,
he'll do an even better job.
Aren't you the one who got me fired from MBS?
Do you think I'll come and work for Miseong Station for nothing?
So you have a condition?
No matter what my topic is...
and how I decide to approach it,
Miseong cannot interfere with my work.
Would that be possible?
If I let you do that, what can you do for me?
I'll help Miseong Station become a fair and trusted media outlet...
that is completely separate from Miseong Group's capital.
It's quite interesting.
It's very odd, but I like you.
You seem disgraceful at times,
but it looks like I am looking at myself...
when I first began Miseong.
Can you promise me...
that you will not give me any pressure?
That you will let me create programs without any limitations?
Sure. I promise.
You can do whatever you want.
However,
you will have to make a program that becomes our face.
Make sure you do this right with your reputation at stake.
Understood?
Yes, Chairman Oh.
- Do Bin. - Hey, Jae Bin.
- Did you just meet my grandfather? - Yes.
I was right, wasn't I?
Why? Do you have something to say?
What?
There's a high possibility that Hwa Kyung pushed Ms. Han?
I heard a voice recording on Ms. Han's phone,
and it sounds awfully suspicious.
That can't be right. Hwa Kyung said she didn't do that.
The police are investigating the case.
We'll find out the truth soon.
Where have you been? Let's go home.
You can go first. I have more work to do.
Jae Bin.
Then I'll get going. Don't be too late.
Mom. I mean, Aunt. What are you doing?
- Throw everything out. - Yes, Vice Chairman Oh.
You can just go.
Why are you doing this?
("The Unique Fashion of a Rich Family's Daughter-in-law")
What about this?
You used to be the only daughter of Miseong.
You could do and buy whatever you wanted.
But not anymore.
You have to be conscious of other people...
with your outfit, accessories, and makeup.
You have to think about how you'll look plain, modest,
not stand out,
not suggestive, and obedient with your fashion.
I can't believe this.
From now on,
you can shop for similar clothes to what you see in your closet now.
No, I'll go shopping with you for a while.
But there's no need to throw away everything.
Don't you remember this dress?
You gave it to me as a present on my last birthday.
That's not important.
You aren't Miseong's granddaughter. You're the granddaughter-in-law.
You aren't my daughter, but my niece-in-law.
You have to change.
Things are too tough already.
My life is tough here and at the blowfish soup place.
It's driving me crazy.
Can't you just let me off?
Please, Mom.
It's all for your sake.
I want you to become the perfect daughter-in-law.
Clean up and come out.
Have some tea, Aunt.
Take some tea to your uncle too.
Yes.
- Have some. - Thanks, Niece-in-law.
Haven't you learned to be grateful?
I'm sure you heard it from your aunt.
Thank you, Uncle.
If I can help you with something, then of course, I should.
May I ask why you did this?
Why?
I made an interesting deal with your aunt.
You'll find out soon enough.
What could it be?
What kind of a deal did they make?
It's okay. I'll do it.
Tell me why you're acting like this.
Stop making my life harder.
Is your life that tough?
Yes, it's so tough that I can die.
You wanted to marry me that badly.
You wanted to be Miseong's granddaughter-in-law that badly.
You wanted that life next to me no matter what it took.
- "No matter what it took"? - Did you really do that?
Did you hurt Ms. Han?
Who said that? Was it Woo Jung?
You said you didn't hurt her.
You told me to trust you that you didn't do anything...
on the day of our wedding.
How much of what you say is really the truth?
Why do you hide it from me?
Why did you lie?
I didn't do it.
She missed a step and fell down the stairs.
Then you should have taken her to a hospital.
I was scared.
I thought people would think that I pushed her.
Even so, how could you run away?
How can you get married...
while Ms. Han was unconscious?
How can you do that?
Then what could I do?
Should I have given up on the wedding to save her?
You should have saved a life first!
If you had taken her to a hospital,
she might not be unconscious at this moment.
I thought she was dead.
I was scared that people will think I killed her.
I thought I would be framed as a murderer.
I thought you'll leave me.
I was more frightened than getting locked up...
in a mental institution or getting kicked out of Miseong.
Yes.
It was wrong of me to run away...
without checking to see if she was dead or alive.
That's why you wanted to take off her respirator.
Why are you so scared of her waking up?
Is there another reason?
I don't want her to wake up!
She'll say that she fell over while she was with me.
No, she might even lie and say that I pushed her down.
She might make me into a murderer!
I want her to stay unconscious like this forever!
Thank you so much for coming today, Ms. Han.
I have something to tell you.
Go ahead.
One second, please.
What were you going to say to me?
How deep is the secret you know...
that she tried to hurt you?
Did Hwa Kyung really do this to you?
Were you here to see Mom?
Yes.
Do you think Hwa Kyung did this?
Yes. But I'm sure you wouldn't want to believe it.
Can we just let this one go?
Do you mean that?
Yes.
Are you scared that...
Hwa Kyung actually did this?
I am scared...
that I will be unable to protect her.
I am not going to let this go.
You can protect Hwa Kyung.
I'll protect my mom.
Goodbye.
(Police Station)
What?
You're going to dismiss the case on the lack of evidence?
It's a decision made above.
What about bringing in Hwa Kyung as a testifier?
She refused to get summoned.
We can't force her to come...
if she isn't a suspect.
Did your superiors give you pressure,
or did Miseong get involved in this?
Please be honest.
- There's nothing like that. - That can't be true.
You have no will to go after this. You want to be on their good side.
Watch your language.
What do you think of me?
Detective Park!
You should stop eating.
Jae Bin and Hwa Kyung will be here soon.
Then you'll eat a feast thanks to that awesome daughter-in-law.
You're right.
She'll make us a feast with at least 12 side dishes,
so I should stay hungry.
Yong Sim, you just said you'll stay hungry.
Is it because I feel so empty?
Why do I keep craving snacks?
Of course, you feel empty.
You gave your son away to another family.
We wouldn't be normal if we don't feel empty.
I'll just think of the good side.
Thanks to Jae Bin, we got to turn...
our blowfish soup place into a franchise or something.
I'll just think that I got myself a rich son.
Goodness.
You say that, but you cry a river in the night all the time.
I should go visit Ms. Han too.
I kind of feel bad for her, but whenever I think about...
how she knows our secret, I keep wanting to avoid her.
You aren't making as much food as before.
You should at least have made 9 dishes, if not 12.
It's been a while since you visited your in-laws.
Yes, Mother. I'll make 12 dishes next time.
I was a bit busy today with work and family.
Of course, you're a daughter-in-law who works very hard.
Everyone is busy in this family.
What about Jae Bin? You were really busy too.
You couldn't even call me once for the entire week.
Did I break your heart again?
It's not easy to live as a rich man's grandson.
I don't even have the time to breathe.
Goodness, of course, it's tough.
Are they hard on you because you aren't smart enough,
that you don't know a thing about business?
Do they look down on you?
Look down on me? It's quite the opposite.
I turned out to be a bit talented in business.
He's right, Mother. He's doing very well right now.
Grandpa is very happy with him too.
Jae Bin is talented in business?
- I'm not sure about that. - It's true.
It's because he takes after me.
You're right.
We might not be related by blood, but we lived together for so long.
I'm just like you, Dad.
Where's Do Bin?
He must be on a date.
- Let's eat. - Eat up.
Do I have to sleep with Mom and Dad at this age?
Then sleep in the living room.
It gets cold out there.
Then you can talk to them and convince them...
to take back what they said...
about coming here once a week.
Forget it. I shouldn't even try to talk to you.
You should sleep on the bed.
It's okay. Get some rest.
Or should I sleep on the floor with you?
Let's just sleep comfortably.
- How long will you be like this? - Like what?
How long will you act like you're angry?
You're the only one I can depend on.
How can I hold out if you're cold to me too?
Stop whining. I need some time.
What do you mean?
Some time? Why?
Some time to understand...
No, to accept you for who you are.
Understand? Accept?
How can you say that?
Do you think I committed a mortal crime?
I told you that it isn't so. I didn't do that.
Why can't you trust me? Why not?
Why do I hear shouting?
Hwa Kyung, are you scolding Jae Bin?
Mother.
Mom, it's not like that.
It is like that.
I need to see you for a moment.
I'm sorry, Mother, Father.
We were just having a quarrel.
Things have been really tough, so I couldn't control myself.
It's tough to live a different life after you get married,
and you have two in-laws on top of that.
- I'm sure it must've been tough. - Forget it.
Don't get into this.
This is between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law.
I think you're the one...
trying to come between Jae Bin and Hwa Kyung's problem.
Isn't Jae Bin also having a tough time after he got married?
No, Jae Bin's life must be harder than yours.
His family changed, he got married, he started working a new job...
with a lot of responsibilities.
Why were you yelling at him?
I didn't think you were like that, but are you nagging at him already?
I'm sorry. It won't happen again.
You're the one...
who convinced us to send him to Miseong.
You became Miseong's granddaughter-in-law thanks to him.
Remember that...
you became a part of Miseong again thanks to Jae Bin.
Yes, Mother.
If you think about it, it means Jae Bin became...
a huge success thanks to Hwa Kyung too.
Shut that mouth!
I feel so helpless.
This is what it feels like to have no power.
Mom is still unconscious,
but there is nothing I can do.
I envied Hwa Kyung when we were friends.
Then I felt sorry for her at one point...
when I found out that she was adopted.
I can't believe how we ended up like this.
With everything that happened between Mom and President Shin,
and how I'm President Shin's daughter of all people.
Even though she hated me and made my life dangerous,
I felt kind of bad for her too.
But now,
I can't take this anymore.
I can't forgive her.
All of the lies that she told.
I want to break down that huge mountain of lies.
I'm going to do what my mom couldn't do.
I'm going to stop Hwa Kyung.
I am going to make it happen.
How?
If there's a way to do that, can you do everything?
Then...
come with me and enter the lion's den.
The lion's den?
Are you ready?
We have to enter the lion's den to catch the lion.
Let's go catch that lion, then.
Wait for me.
- Good morning. - You're here.
It's been forever, Mr. Yoon.
Woo Jung, you're here too.
What happened to you?
Did you quit MBS?
They don't even care that I got the job as the top of my class.
They won't give me any programs.
So I quit and came here instead.
I mean, I'm very talented.
I'll tell you the truth.
Congratulations, Eun Sung.
I'll tell you about the program that we'll produce from now on.
We will be in charge of an investigative reporting show...
at Miseong Station, which will be established soon.
An investigative reporting program.
We may be working for a huge company called Miseong Group,
but I believe what's important is the attitude of the people here.
We have a big budget and a lot of support...
at Miseong Station.
So let's not get intimidated and create a program that we want.
And I have already decided on the topic of our first episode.
What's the topic?
I'm going to deal with Han Joo Won's program rigging, her fall,
and mysterious accidents that keep happening to her.
(Secret and Lies)
You can't do this. You're driving me into a corner.
Jae Bin, you became a part of Miseong very quickly.
Do Bin.
- It's been forever. - Jang Seong Min.
Oh, the infamous Ms. Shin?
- What is it? - What a waste.
You're way out of that idiot's league.
- You could be her accomplice. - What?
You didn't do anything although you were there...
at the time of her accident.
If you can die like this,
it will make both of our lives easier.
