You said they show case files to family members, right?
I'm immediate family.
My dad is immediate family.

Where are we going, mister?
Master once said
that the best bait when fishing is yourself.
But has Master ever gone fishing himself?
So what's the deal?
Why is the owner of Jeil News here?
I wouldn't know.
Maybe the plan was to send his brother first to take over Someday,
and now he's here to acquire it as a subsidiary.
Chief.
That means I'll at least be a chief at Jeil News.
The salary raise alone...
Stop drooling. You're dribbling.
Have some citron tea.
We don't have any nice tea sets, so...
Thank you.
I called Mun-ho, I mean...
I called Mr. Kim, so he'll be here soon.
Please, have some. I brought two.
You're very cheerful and polite.
Cheerful and polite?
Well, I guess I am.
Thank you.
Are you thirsty?
Wait here. I'll get you something to drink.
Stay right here.
Mommy...
I saw you at Assemblyman Kim's press conference.
You were very brave.
Well, I only did as Mun-ho taught me.
How tall are you?
-Excuse me? -You looked tall on TV.
Let me see.
Well, I was wearing high heels then.
But now, I am...
You're similar in height.
Or aren't you?
Are you smaller?
Than who?
Yeong-sin, get out.
Sure.
What is it? What's going on?
You scared her.
-How dare you come here. -Mun-ho.
How dare you meet her?
How could you not tremble or fall to your knees at the sight of her?
You do realize...
she is in danger now
because of you, right?
If you stay out of her life, she won't be in danger.
You probably thought if you showed her to the world on TV,
no one would be able to touch her.
Why? Was it insufficient?
Should I do it again?
Thanks to you,
I may be running for mayor of Seoul.
You dragged Kim Ui-chan down with that ridiculous broadcast,
so I'm being pushed into that spot.
Is that person pushing you
the one your people call Boss?
Yes, Boss thinks Ji-an is my weakness.
He thinks he needs to eliminate my weaknesses.
That kid is in danger, Mun-ho.
So I need to take her.
I'll keep her safe
by my side.
-You'll take her and keep her safe? -Yes.
How?
Will you break her legs, so she can't move?
Will you build a cage and lock her up in it?
That way you can keep her safe, right?
Watch what you're saying.
That's how you protect people.
What are you doing using kids who know nothing?
Did you bring Seo Jeong-hu?
What are you thinking?
Are you two digging up what happened 22 years ago?
Seo Jeong-hu?
Do you mean Jun-seok's son?
You found him too? So, what?
Will you get rid of him like you did with Ji-an?
You can't afford him to become your weakness
and have your past revealed.
Not long ago,
someone came to my house.
I think it may have been him.
I didn't get to ask him
because he left in such a hurry.
Seo Jeong-hu?
That's the fifth time someone asked me my name.
"Seo Jeong-hu? Are you Seo Jeong-hu?"
Yes, I am Seo Jeong-hu.
You requested documents on Seo Jun-seok?
Yes, I did.
You're Seo Jun-seok's son, correct?
Yes, my dad's name was Seo Jun-seok.
Someone would like to meet you. Would you come with me?
Your father's friend is waiting for you.
Fine.
Jeez.
I'm still half-asleep.
What are you doing? Hurry up.
Hurry up. Let's go.
You seem tired.
Yes. I just got to Korea,
so I'm still jetlagged.
I should get some sleep.
You're so lucky
to live in a nice house like this.
Please, it's this way.
Where? There? Okay.
Wow. Are these all books?
On the upper floor too!
Do they collect books or something?
This is amazing.
Hello.
Are you Seo Jeong-hu?
Sixth time.
That was the sixth time today. Yes, I am Seo Jeong-hu.
My gosh, Jeong-hu.
Welcome.
Thanks.
Don't you remember me at all?
No, I don't.
-Here, come and sit. -I was too young.
Still, I'm hurt.
I used to give you piggyback rides.
Your dad and I were very close.
Then are you one of them?
-What? -You see, I have a photo.
There are five people in it.
So, my dad's there, and some woman and...
Are you one of...
-Yes. -Really?
I was one of them. There were five of us.
Awesome! I hit the jackpot as soon as I came to Korea.
Weren't you in Korea?
No, I was in Russia.
-Russia? -Yes.
I studied abroad.
Who's here?
He said it's someone you must meet.
You must be super rich
and very high up, right?
I don't know if I'm that high up.
That's how you got me out when I was locked up.
Oh, that?
I'm curious though.
Why was I locked up earlier?
And how did you know I was locked up?
If anyone asks about your father,
they're supposed to keep them there and report to me.
I made sure that when they report it, I hear about it first.
-Why? -I told you.
We were very close friends.
So, friends tell each other everything?
It's so cool, isn't it?
I hear we have a guest.
Say hello.
Hello.
We have a young guest.
Don't you recognize him? Doesn't he look like someone?
-Who? -He looks like Seo Jun-seok.
I don't see it. No way.
He's Jun-seok's son.
Hello.
I'm Seo Jeong-hu.
Can you come over here?
I...
I can't stand up.
So, do you mind sitting?
Let me see
your face up close.
Jeong-hu.
Yes?
You have gotten so big.
You were so small, but you're so big now.
I have seen this face before.
I know I have.
What?
Oh, I have something to tell you...
I'll come back later.
Come in.
I have an item that I would like to work on.
I really want to do it.
What is it?
I want to reinvestigate Hwang Je-guk.
I looked into it and they say
Hwang Je-guk committed suicide.
He left a suicide note and the case has been closed.
Something feels wrong.
-What? -It's too easy.
Well, it's sort of like someone
framed him for all of the crimes
and is trying to get away with it.
You hated Hwang Je-guk.
You were cornered because of Joo Yeon-hui
and even Someday was sued.
Now you're all free from that because he died.
-Shouldn't you be happy? -I am happy.
Well, it sounds bad that I'm happy someone died.
Anyway, a reporter must uncover truth and justice.
I can't be blinded by my personal emotions.
I jotted down some suspicions
and some things that need to be investigated.
When people cry about truth and justice,
you need to read between the lines
because those are words you don't really need to say
if you have no ulterior motives.
What are you really after?
Actually, a detective came to see me.
He had suspicions about Ko Seong-cheol,
the guy Hwang Je-guk confessed in his suicide note of killing,
and Hwang Je-guk's suicide itself.
-Suspicions? -He thinks Healer killed them.
So?
I want to reveal the truth.
I learned that detectives handle cases, but reporters handle the truth.
Am I right?
That young man really is Seo Jeong-hu.
I'm verifying whether he really just came to Korea.
We'll know tomorrow.
Myeong-hui is
a terrible liar.
In the rare occasion that she does lie,
she always gets caught.
She was always like that.
Then do you still suspect him?
Do you think he could be Healer?
Well...
I think she is lying.
What could it be?
Why is Myeong-hui lying to me?
Come here. Sit.
Do you remember what your dad looked like?
He was always smiling and joking around.
This is your dad.
What?
Actually, I heard
something from someone.
What is it?
I heard my dad
killed a friend.
And I heard that
it was this man.
I also heard these two were married.
-So, this woman-- -That's me.
We were married.
Then, my dad
killed your husband?
Myeong-hui, let's stop here.
No, Jeong-hu.
No. Your dad did no such thing.
Is that what you came here to find out?
Yes.
I'm sorry, but can you leave us? She isn't well.
Take my hand.
You're brave.
You could have just buried it.
You could have.
I'm sure no one knows.
You see,
I like someone now. So I had to find out
what my dad was like, and if I could like her.
I see.
Right.
Ji-an, are you seeing this?
Jeong-hu grew up so handsome.
Jeong-hu. Jeong-hu, play with me.
Ji-an!
What is...
What is her name again?
Ji-an.
Our Ji-an.
My daughter.
The two of you were very close.
Wait outside.
Myeong-hui.
I figured out where I saw him.
Healer, are you listening?
Remember after that elevator accident?
I checked all the security videos nearby.
I have been looking up everyone who passed by the area around that time.
I couldn't find anything on a few of them.
He was one of them.
He was near the building around the time of the elevator accident.
This is either a very big coincidence,
or he is the one who tried to kill Yeong-sin.
I wanted to know
just who was spending so much money to find this girl.
Gil-han had a daughter.
-What happened to her? -She died.
Jeong-hu.
Stop running around.
If you keep running, I won't let you into this island.
It's Unknown Island!
Ji-an!
Ji-an.
How long were you going to lie to me?
How much did you find out?
Why didn't you tell me
who Yeong-sin really is?
Why did you say she died?
You should have told me.
Ji-an was in danger.
I'll explain.
I know your explanations very well.
You lie and make things up on the spot.
-Jeong-hu. -Everyone keeps lying.
So, even if you say that my dad is not a murderer,
no matter how much you people say that,
I can't...
believe it.
I couldn't tell you about Ji-an
because I had to protect her.
Her mother is alive.
You see her every day, but yet you say nothing.
-That's protecting her? -If she finds out
and her mom finds out,
she will really
lose her mom, do you understand?
What did you people do?
What did you do to us?
What?
I'm sorry.
Leave us alone.
Yeong-sin and I have been fine living without you people
and we will be going forward.
We will protect ourselves perfectly fine without you too,
so stay out of our lives.
Jeong-hu.
There is still much that you don't know.
-Those people are the kind that'll-- -I don't care.
Don't you get it?
I don't care who's involved.
Just keep to yourselves
and we'll do the same.
What about your dad?
What will you do about your dad's case?
My dad's problem is...
between me and my dad,
so stay out of it.
Hello...
Hey, Bong-su.
Weren't you mad at me?
That's been really bugging me.
-What's wrong? -Yeong-sin.
What is it?
I'm having a really tough time right now.
Will you help me?
Sure, I'll...
Hey.
Why are you so cold?
You're freezing.
Hey, Bong-su.
I think that's enough.
Not yet.
Not yet? Right? Not yet?
No, that's enough.
I give up.
So, you can't go home because of bugs?
The exterminator said it would take a few days.
What bug did you say it was?
Camel crickets.
They spread out all over the place
and each one is this big.
They don't travel alone either.
They go...
Anyway,
so you need a place to crash.
Yes, I can sleep on the couch like last time,
or I can sleep out here.
I just need a blanket.
Your family is rich. Go to a hotel.
Hotels are scary. I can't go alone.
What about your family?
I live alone.
-What about your family? -My dad...
My mom remarried long ago,
and my dad passed away when I was young.
Come here.
My dad and Uncle went to a funeral.
I'll call and ask them later and...
What?
You said
you like someone.
I do. So?
But you hug any man who asks
for comfort and a place to stay.
You think you're a man?
You just clung to me crying after freaking out from bugs
and said that you're petrified.
How am I supposed to handle you suddenly calling yourself a man?
Camel crickets are seriously scary.
Anyway, I'm going to charge you for lodging, got it?
Hello.
What would you like?
-One americano and... -One americano.
A caramel macchiato.
Would you like some whipped cream on top?
MYEONG-HUI
The person you have called is unavailable...
-Dr. Choi. -Reporter Kim, it's been a while.
Is something wrong with Myeong-hui?
She's calm now.
I told Mr. Kim that we'll see how she does.
If she gets worse though, she should go to the hospital.
Seo Jeong-hu came by earlier. He's Jun-seok's son.
That kid doesn't know what and what not to say.
Look at what he did to her.
Did you tell him what he knows?
Is that why he suddenly came here?
What else did you say, and to whom?
How much does Ji-an know?
You know, I always thought
that I was a better person than you.
But...
you were the only role model I had
while growing up.
That's why I became someone just like you.
-So? -I don't think it's too bad.
If it's dirty, you should clean it with a rag.
A white towel would be a waste.
Let's talk.
I came to see Myeong-hui, not you.
If Seo Jeong-hu is Healer and Mun-ho is behind him,
we can assume Healer has Boss' video.
I have emailed Healer, but he hasn't responded.
He won't budge, no matter how much we offer.
There is no other way to reach him.
Then we'll make him come to us.
I didn't want to go this far but...
What a shame.
What are you doing?
-So you want me to... -Peel them.
Forget it. Forget the potatoes.
Peel the onions with the small knife.
Can you do it?
-Bong-su. -Yes?
At least wash the gunk out of your eyes.
-Gunk? -Left eye.
Thank you for the food.
Thank you...
What's wrong?
Why? Does it taste bad?
It tastes fine.
You're unbelievable.
-Don't eat it. -No, it's good.
What do you mean, lock my door?
Dad, it's Bong-su. Bong-su.
Okay. Drive safely. Sure.
Dad and Uncle won't be back for a few hours.
He said to just go to sleep.
I can wait. I should say hi--
These are my dad's, so they are pretty big
but you need pajamas.
Oh, sorry.
-What... -Hold on.
I must have lost my mind.
I'm sorry. Good night.
That woman Myeong-hui is Kim Mun-sik's wife now.
Can you get her medical records?
I want to know what will happen to her
if she finds out her dead daughter is alive.
Is this a formal request?
Just take my money, okay?
You manage my accounts anyway, so take what you want.
Then I'll do this for free, on the house.
Let me give you an analysis of your condition.
Do you realize you are a tin robot
with a malfunctioning AI?
Jeez. You must be hungry again
seeing as you're nagging. Right?
You lose your mind over some girl,
are careless with her phone,
and get your identity exposed.
As soon as you hear about your dad, you expose your identity
and run into the enemy camp.
So, now what?
You go somewhere filled with cops.
What for? To protect whom?
You must be getting old.
You have been talking a lot lately.
I told you about Superman before, right?
The guy who went undercover for some girl.
He had one weakness.
Are you listening?
Yes.
But I think people to you are like that stone from the comic book.
Ms. Jo...
People, human beings, are your Kryptonite or something.
I know, okay?
I know that you secretly really like me.
-Who is this? -You knew, didn't you?
You knew about what my dad
supposedly did to Yeong-sin's dad.
That's why you were trying to keep us apart, right?
In case I'd get hurt.
Were you
hurt?
I don't even remember what my dad looked like.
All I know is the face in the picture.
What he did 20 years ago has nothing to do with me? Right?
If he didn't kill
the father of the girl I like...
Ms. Jo.
What?
I like Yeong-sin.
You just realized that?
So, I'm prepared.
Even if I get hurt, there is nothing I can do.
It's okay if she doesn't know.
Still, I have to stay by her side.
Don't tell me to run away.
Because I
don't know how.
Assemblyman Kim Ui-chan, who is suspected of receiving sexual bribes
was summoned by the prosecutor today.
Assemblyman Kim denies all allegations,
but the prosecutor is investigating Hwang's suicide note
and the videos of the sexual bribes.
If he is found guilty, they will request imprisonment...
I'll announce Someday News' new project.
Yes, sir.
We just watched Assemblyman Kim Ui-chan.
Given the headlines, he will most likely be ousted.
It looks like his party already abandoned him too.
That means they'll nominate a new mayoral candidate
and that person will be the subject of our new special.
Did they announce it already? Why don't I know this?
They haven't announced it yet. I found out personally.
So, who is it?
Kim Mun-sik.
The owner of Jeil News.
What?
News about him will start popping up soon,
stuff like his secret accomplishments.
How he has some impressive people's support...
Wait, so you're saying...
Mr. Kim,
do you mean your brother?
Yes, he came by here a few days ago.
You acquired Someday News, and the very first special broadcast
crippled Kim Ui-chan's career.
It was a huge success which was nice.
Thanks to that, Someday News became more well-known.
You know,
I thought that was really cool.
That is how I truly felt.
-But now, I see... -What do you see?
This was all a campaign scam for your brother.
Sure, I understand. That's how the world works.
I get it. I do. But I can't stay here any longer.
-Hey you, spy. -Yes?
-Do you report daily? -I am to report twice a week
and immediately if anything happens.
Go and report that
Someday's Kim Mun-ho is doing a feature on Kim Mun-sik.
The mayorship is in the bag, isn't it?
Tell him that because I personally know a lot about Kim Mun-sik,
it will be quite interesting.
Here's the first item.
"How did he obtain his wealth?"
Doesn't that sound like a nice start?
My goal is to alert the public of
who must not become the mayor of Seoul.
WE SHOULD HAVE LUNCH TOGETHER FROM JEONG-HU
HWANG JE-GUK
That has everything I've gathered.
It has everything on the people Hwang Je-guk bribed.
Thank you.
Look into their relationships.
The fastest way would be to follow the money.
No matter how powerful or connected they are,
they will be tied together by money.
I'll meet with the detective first, that suspicious one.
Good. Work with Bong-su on this one.
Teach him how to be a reporter.
I'll teach him well.
Bong-su, let's go.
You said Yeong-sin is in danger.
So why are you letting her run around?
You said you'd protect her.
Are you tired? Do you want one?
You're unbelievable.
It's too late to run or hide.
We have to counterattack.
So, you'll leave her in the dark and--
I'm waiting
for Ji-an to come to me on her own.
I'm sure she'll punch me first for deceiving her.
Someone I know would have said this.
"Even his bullshit is creative."

So, ask.
-Do you-- -Hello?
Hello, Detective Yoon.
Excuse me? Where?
Okay, we'll come to you.
It isn't far from here.
I'll call you when I'm there.
You need to see something. Can you check your email?
Bong-su, can we go to Eastern Mall?
You wear glasses?
Just sometimes.
I wear them when I can't see at times
or if I have to see something else.
I told Detective Yoon we'd see him at Eastern Mall.
How long will it take to get there?
We're getting an email every 30 minutes.
Hey.
Where?
Didn't you hear me?
I'm tracking your mom's phone.
But Healer, this is obviously a trap.
-So, where is it? -I told you. It's Eastern Mall.
It's at Seongsan Rotary near Kia Station.
We're not in a rush. You can slow down.
What's the fastest route?
I don't know.
I think Kim Mun-sik set this trap. If you go,
you're announcing that Seo Jeong-hu is Healer.
I'm calling your master now.
He should look into--
Tell me the fastest route!
Make a right at Royal Department Store.
-Do you have a reservation? -Yes.
-This way, please. -Thank you.
-Just a moment, please. -Sure.
God, help me.
You put a tracker in Kim Mun-sik's assistant's car
when you went to his house, right?
That car is headed toward your mom.
It's almost there.
Do you...
remember me?
Attorney Baek?
We got another email.
It's another photo.
Is that for your son?
Yes, he doesn't bundle up enough.
Which son do you mean?
Isn't your oldest son's name Jeong-hu?
Do you see him often?
I'm sorry, but I need to go somewhere. It's urgent.
Sure, I'll wait, but what's the...
Excuse me.
-Yes? -Did you see the person who was here?
Oh, that lady?
She just left out the back...
Sir!
Ms. Jo, find my mom. She isn't in the restaurant.
I think she went toward Assistant Oh's car.
The two signals are merging.
Check the garage. I'll check the security feeds.
You reserved this table, right?
She left already.
Excuse me?
What? What's going on? Hey!
I really shouldn't do this
but it's a dire situation, so I have no choice.
Your mom is in Assistant Oh's car.
Check the garage for me.
See if I'll be ambushed.
I'm almost done. Just a minute.
Ms. Jo?
What's going on?
Come on!
Shit!

Ms. Jo!
I need to know what's down there.
Ms. Jo.
Yes.

Hello, Healer. I'm so happy to meet you.
Will you show me your face?
