(Episode 9)
(Ahn Byung Ho)
Only 35 minutes left.
- What is this? - Mr. Gi.
Gosh, how annoying.
It's a math test. We have no time to lose.
Is it you? Darn it.
Focus on your test. You have more than 30 minutes left.
And I turned off the phone. Focus now.
Okay.
All right. Send in the third batter.
(Send in the 3rd batter.)
(Yu Beom Jin)
Mr. Gi.
Yes. What is it?
I'm done. Can I go out?
There's some time left. You'll have to wait.
Can I at least get my phone back?
I have nothing to do.
I can't give you your phone back until everyone is done.
What? Is there any reason why you need your phone right now?
Then is there any reason why I can't go out?
What?
Once a third of the time has passed, I can submit my answer sheet...
and study on my own according to the school rules.
Is there any special reason for you to stop me from doing that?
What's this?
What?
(Jung Su Ah)
This photo...
(Jung Su Ah)
Jung Su Ah?
Unbelievable.
I hit the jackpot.
(Jung Su Ah)
What's happening?
Jackpot.
Don't disconnect yet.
Why are you standing up? Stay seated.
I don't know what's with you.
It's not like I'm breaking any rules.
Mr. Gi, just give him his phone. It's distracting.
- Seriously. - What is this?
- Just let him go out. - I can't focus.
It's so distracting.
Darn it.
I'll submit my answer sheet anyway.
Didn't you hear me?
Stay seated.
That's strange.
You always make a point of sticking to the rules.
And why are you being so unreasonable now?
Suit yourself.
I'll just do what the rules say.
Let me check my phone in front of you and return it.
That's no problem, right?
Oh, come on!
- My phone's brand new! - Darn it.
- Give us more time for the test! - My phone.
I'm going to submit a complaint.
Sorry. I'll give you more time. Sorry.
Here it is. Yu Beom Jin.
Here.
What? You kept asking for it.
It's hot.
My phone's hot.
I turned it off before turning it in.
How could this be?
Well, maybe there's something wrong with the battery.
Maybe. I probably should have it checked.
To see if it's really a battery problem...
or if it's something else.
Gosh!
I said not to disconnect!
Good job.
You did a good job.
(Seoul, Friday, 29°C)
- Good job, everyone. - Thank you. Bye.
Good job.
Well done.
- Hey. - Hey!
Why did you disconnect it? I said I hit the jackpot!
What did you find?
There were pictures of Jung Su Ah on Yu Beom Jin's phone.
They were her profile pictures released by Lee Tae Seok's agency.
What?
It doesn't end there.
I also found a suspicious app on his phone.
Mr. Gi, what are you doing?
Ms. Shin.
Aren't you going to submit the answer sheets?
You'll get in trouble with Ms. Jun if you submit them late.
We're supposed to put them in the safe right away.
Right. I'm on my way to the teacher's office.
- Let's go. - Okay, let's go.
- Please. - All right.
(Gunyi General Hospital)
Father, I told you about it, right?
Woonam University will come into the hands of Cheonmyung Foundation.
And it's me, your son's accomplishment.
An education foundation is a business too.
It should be run by someone competent.
Instead of a rat who digs around for others' secrets.
What? A rat?
A general manager...
has more work than you think.
Even more than a director.
So please work hard.
Brother.
Know your place.
Who do you think you are?
Father, please wait just a little longer.
I'll make sure you get to see...
Woonam University in Cheonmyung Foundation's organization chart...
during your life.
Father, please stay healthy
Gosh, why is that idiot so stuck-up?
What?
This is Lee Tae Seok.
Yes. Thank you.
I'll come to you right now.
Okay.
Yes!
A spy app?
Why would a high school student have a spy app on his phone?
That's why it's a jackpot.
Daily Weather.
At a glance, it looks like an ordinary weather app.
But if you install this app on two phones,
you can monitor and access the messages, photos,
and internet browsing history on one phone from the other.
In other words, this app can do both hacking and monitoring.
Monitoring? But monitor who?
Exactly. That's the part we want to know.
Because you disconnected the phones in the middle of the process,
all the data got damaged.
I barely managed to save this one photo.
That's why he kept asking me to return his phone.
(Jung Su Ah)
Can you try to connect again?
No. That's too dangerous.
Anyway, we know one thing for sure.
That person has Jung Su Ah's profile pictures on his phone.
Lee Tae Seok. That makes sense.
But why would Yu Beom Jin want to monitor him?
What's their relation?
While Gi Hoon's phone surprisingly turned out to have nothing,
this gem just popped out from somewhere completely unexpected.
On Byung Ho's phone,
we found his messages with Lee Tae Seok, so that's not bad.
(Yu Beom Jin, Congressman Yu Yang Ki's son)
- Won Suk. - Yes?
Which standing committees does Yu Yang Ki belong too?
Hold on a second.
Let me see.
(Yu Yang Ki)
Legislation and Judiciary Committee.
National Defense Committee. Culture, Sports, and Tourism Committee.
And Education Committee.
He is the chairman of Education Committee.
(Yu Yang Ki)
Then he could play an important role...
in Lee Tae Seok taking over Woonam University.
What if Yu Yang Ki, not Lee Do Jin,
is Speed Dial Zero?
He might be the one...
who has pictures of Su Ah on his phone.
No way.
We must recover the data from Yu Beom Jin's phone.
That will reveal who Yu Beom Jin...
has been monitoring.
(Congressman Yu Yang Ki)
Here it is. Yu Beom Jin.
(Yu Beom Jin)
Here.
What? You kept asking for it.
(Yu Beom Jin)
Beom Jin.
Why are you concentrating so hard?
You'll be the top student anyway.
By the way, are you okay?
What? What do you mean?
Have you found Ms. Jo's replacement?
Yes, my mom hired a new teacher.
Who?
Who else? Our new homeroom teacher.
Why don't you find another one?
He keeps digging into the past.
He's unreasonably curious.
You must feel uncomfortable yourself...
leaving your future in that suspicious person's hands.
I have no choice. It's Mom's decision.
Why did Mom have to choose the temp?
I'm sure he was chosen by Butler Lee, not your mom,
because the temp suits his purpose.
His purpose?
What's that?
Yu Yang Ki's son had that photo on his phone.
Congressman Yu Yang Ki's son?
How did you find that out?
I hacked a few suspicious kids' phones.
There were some opportunities during the exams.
Mu Hyeok.
That's not the point.
Yu Yang Ki is the chairman of Education Committee.
He might have a relation with Lee Tae Seok.
In addition to Assistant Prosecutor General Yang and Lee Do Jin,
now a congressman?
How is the investigation going?
All investigations on Lee Tae Seok are on hold.
The circumstances clearly point to Kim Han Su.
There's absolutely no chance for a reinvestigation.
He was not only arrested at the scene...
but also caught on security cameras rushing into her apartment.
Security cameras...
Did you check the whole neighborhood?
No other outsiders entered that building around that time.
You should focus on interrogating Assistant Prosecutor General Yang.
I'll try to find the evidence needed for a reinvestigation.
(Namgang Office)
We must work together...
to never let our children...
be sacrificed by excessive private education again.
We're going to cooperate with Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education...
and investigate every private academy...
in our district...
and carry out random checks at night.
Sir, I have a question.
After his speech, please.
It's okay. Please go ahead.
I'm Reporter Han Da Hee from Education Journal.
Considering the Namgang-gu citizen's...
great zeal for education,
such a move can be seen as pressure on private education,
which will highly likely to lead to the drop of your approval ratings.
What do you think about this?
Are you saying sticking to the rules and normal operation of academies...
are pressure on private education?
Of course not.
But parents who send their children to the academies...
might have different opinions.
Are you saying the people can't understand...
what you and I think is normal?
I believe our people...
are insightful enough...
to make wise choices and decisions.
All academies that are caught during the investigation...
will be disqualified as an educational institution...
without exception. I give you my word.
I would like to ask you all a favor.
The education office and we are working together.
Please think of this matter as your own children's.
Your cooperation will be very much appreciated.
So this is the only entrance to the townhouse, right?
Yes, there's no other entrance.
Are those all the cameras that film the back of the building?
Yes, those are all.
(Pause, lap)
1 minute and 20 seconds.
It's so close.
What's the matter? What about this place?
I found another way to Su Ah's place.
Another way?
If you cut across here, it takes less than two minutes...
to Su Ah's place.
The police must have missed it.
We need to check the CCTVs around here again.
CCTVs?
But it was three months ago. The records must be gone.
What else can we do? Let's give it a try.
There must be private surveillance cameras...
in the stores and buildings nearby.
Are you saying you want me to hack all those cameras?
If that helps us catch the criminal, it will be worth it.
Check the CCTVs near the road.
I'll check if there are more cameras.
Seriously, this is nothing but a waste of time.
Gosh, you'd better pay me well for this.
(Won Suk)
Okay.
(Won Suk)
Why are there so many cameras?
Darn it.
Gi Mu Hyeok, that brat.
Where is this? Goodness.
- Hello, sir. - Good morning.
- Hello, sir. - Hi.
- Hello, sir. - Hello.
Nice. Morning.
- Hello, sir. - Hi. Good.
Could you smile a bit?
- Hello, sir. - Hi.
- Hello, sir. - Hello.
Are you two dating again? Focus on your study.
- Hello, sir. - Hi. Keep it up.
Let's work hard. Move.
Let's kick Butler Lee out.
He doesn't suit our school.
He's been always bothering me.
And he even created a scene at Tae Ra's recital.
Kicking him out won't be enough.
We must destroy him.
Why do I still see them?
I told you to delete all of them.
Once I make my debut,
I will make you the president of my fan club or whatever you want.
Ye Ri, you'd better ask a digital undertaker...
rather than me.
I want to have a normal life again.
I can't let them handle that.
I'm almost a celebrity.
"Celebrity"?
I couldn't do my job because I had to help you.
And now I'm about to be fired.
Could you please set me free now?
Or how about you snitch on him?
Snitch?
How?
What do you mean by, "how"?
You said there's something fishy about that man.
Can't you just snitch on him to a reporter or something...
and kick him out?
Can we talk?
Sure.
Ms. Ha.
Where are we going now?
Somewhere you must go at least once.
And we have to take a taxi to get there?
(Prosecution Service)
Hey, what's up? You never call me out.
How about a cup of coffee?
Coffee is nice here.
Are you out of your mind?
Seriously.
Why are you so shocked?
I'm telling a prosecutor about corruption.
Hey, you...
You want to rat out Mr. Yang, your direct superior?
Even if he's my superior, he must be punished if he commits a crime.
You'll get fired first.
And Mr. Yang is...
He got there with no skills because of his connections.
He has connections at the Supreme Prosecutors' Office too.
Look. I'll worry about that.
You just do your job as the prosecutor of Insection Department.
Are you serious? I'm losing my mind here.
It's not my fault if something happens to you.
No one will take in a prosecutor who rats out a superior.
You know that, right?
Thanks.
It's nice to have a friend who worries about me.
Thanks for this. See you.
Hey...
Get out, you jerks!
Stop that.
Where is it?
I don't have it! I mean it!
Where is the money?
Here it is!
Stay still.
You're really making me mad.
- You have money, but you... - Don't hit him.
What? Why don't you wave a knife at us like last time?
You audacious little twerp.
Do you want to die?
Stay still.
What's this?
Beom Jin.
Is he your friend?
That's right. He's my friend.
He is?
That's good.
Friends are supposed to help each other in times of need.
You're decked out in designer clothes.
If we strip you now, that will be enough...
to pay your friend's interest.
Will you give me your business card?
Really?
Really? You want to pay?
Here it is, our new client.
(Youth Loans)
What a great friend.
(Help me)
What...
What are you doing?
I requested help with the police.
I said I'm being held hostage in your office and asked for help.
What? Hostage?
You brat.
That must be a confirmation call.
What should I do?
They'll think I'm really being held hostage if I don't answer.
You crazy little punk.
That should be the cops.
They're probably calling the number on the card.
Answer it.
I'll scream for help.
Darn it.
Shouldn't you go?
They're sending officers now.
Do you want to die?
Forget it. Let's go to the office.
Of all the bad luck.
Darn it.
Pay back the rest, got it?
Darn it.
Thanks for your help.
You want to come back...
to our school, right?
I will...
let you.
What's your relationship with Su Ah?
Tell me.
Were you really digging into her life?
Does that have anything to do with us?
Don't you just need to be taken care of?
I entered all the entries that were missing in your student records.
I removed the recital because they may ask during the interview.
Everything will go smoothly from now on.
(Han Tae Ra's Academic Schedule)
Fine.
But in exchange, don't mind Su Ah or Han Su.
(Han Tae Ra's Student Record)
Just take good care of my student record.
I don't want things to get awkward with the other kids because of you.
Don't worry. I look forward to working with you.
I will send you to the school that's perfect for you.
(Donghan Hospital)
You said you wanted to know...
how Han Su was doing.
Ma'am.
Let's go in. Han Su's here.
Mr. Gi told me...
that you visited Han Su at the detention center.
How...
Mr. Gi...
is Han Su's attorney.
He came to our school to prove his innocence.
Is it true you visited Han Su?
Byung Ho.
Can you tell me...
what the two of you talked about that day?
I don't know anything.
It isn't your fault.
Whatever you talked about with Han Su,
it wasn't your fault that he attempted suicide.
So don't lower your head like that.
It's someone else who committed the crimes and should be punished.
I brought you here...
for you, Byung Ho.
Ever since Han Su became like this,
it's been hard and torturous for you, too.
I wish you would...
feel at peace.
To me, Han Su, Su Ah,
and you...
are all equally my precious students.
Please let me be alone...
with Han Su.
I only need a minute.
Please.
Okay.
Got it.
(Patient: Kim Han Su, Nurse in charge: Han Min Jung)
Sorry.
I'm sorry, Han Su.
Who are you?
Who are you? Why do you have Su Ah's picture?
Byung Ho.
Why are you here?
What's this picture?
How's Su Ah? Is she all right?
She can recover, right?
They said it's your fault.
You're responsible for what happened to Su Ah.
What?
If you hadn't meddled in,
Su Ah wouldn't have gotten hurt.
They said it all depends on you...
whether Su Ah will die or recover.
What are you talking about? How does that depend on me?
Do you know...
what happens...
to the Little Mermaid at the end of the tale?
Find it out yourself.
They said the book will let you know how to save Su Ah.
I don't want to do this anymore.
I don't want to have anything to do with you anymore.
Byung Ho, wait!
Who...
Who sent you?
Byung Ho! Byung Ho!
I'm so sorry.
I'm really sorry, Han Su.
It's all my fault.
Han Su.
I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
(Patient: Kim Han Su, Nurse in charge: Han Min Jung)
Are you okay?
Yes.
I visited...
Han Su in the prison.
I'll tell you everything...
what we talked about.
You surprised me, my son.
You wanted to have dinner with me.
You're too busy. I don't get to see you much.
Now that my exam is over,
I thought we should have dinner together.
All right.
Let's try to spend more time together from now on.
How was your exam?
Wasn't it hard?
It was fine. I think I did well.
I see.
I'm sure you knew the answer to every question.
If you got anything wrong, it must have been a mistake.
I do hope...
you'll come out on top.
Thanks.
I'm thinking of getting out and taking some photos soon.
To get some fresh air.
Photos?
Yes. I won a national contest last year...
with some photos I took outdoors.
Do you remember? The prizes were handed out at this hotel.
Of course. I remember that.
It's a shame you couldn't make it.
I really wanted you to be there when I received the prize.
I know.
Too bad I had an important appointment that day.
I would have loved to see my son receive that prize indeed.
How do you feel today?
What is it all of a sudden?
Why is Butler Lee...
By the way, why did Butler Lee do that to you?
How dare he speak to you that way?
You're not letting him get away with it, are you?
Consider it...
as a crazy dog's barking.
Don't worry about it.
How would I not?
My father, who I respect so much, got humiliated in front of everyone.
If you don't punish him, I will...
It's none of your business.
Focus on your studies.
Let grown-ups deal with it.
You were there.
What?
You were at the hotel that night.
Lee Tae Seok and Su Ah too.
Why are you lying to me?
What did you do at the hotel that night?
"It's none of your business. Let grown-ups deal with it."
Did you think that would make me let it go?
This is driving me crazy!
Who killed Su Ah?
What was her relationship with Lee Tae Seok?
And you.
What was going on...
between you and Su Ah?
You...
- Stop it! - Seriously.
Stop it right now!
Are you crazy?
You said you had something to tell me.
Never do this again.
I won't put up with it.
Will you tell Butler Lee or something?
What makes you so stuck-up?
You met old men at a hotel.
Darn it.
If you need money, go out with me instead of old men.
I can give you as much as you want.
You creep me out.
What?
Why does it matter to you?
Taking these photos secretly... You're disgusting.
Don't you understand?
Once I leak these photos...
Then everyone will find out that you took them secretly!
Will that be okay with you?
Even if your father, the law firm president, finds out?
Are you serious?
What are you doing? Get off me!
Yes, you're right.
Neither of us wants this to get out.
Then why don't we make another secret while we're at it?
You jerk!
Darn it.
You crazy...
You little...
Stop it.
Stop it. I'm fine.
Are you sure?
Birds of a feather flock together indeed.
You guys are amazing.
First, Butler Lee, and now a punk?
You brat.
Do you know she sees old guys in hotels?
What?
You didn't know.
Poor you.
The general manager of our school is her sponsor.
Do you want to die? Stop saying rubbish.
- You... - Seriously!
Here's the evidence.
The evidence that shows she sees Butler Lee.
It's not true, is it?
This is not you.
It's a lie, right?
He's just blackmailing...
I can't watch this. This is too sad.
She's so good at seducing men.
- How dare you! - Get off me!
Isn't this the only thing you're better at doing than me?
Getting physical.
I'm sorry,
but once my father finds out who did this to my face,
you'll be kicked out of school and rot in a reform school.
You're right.
If I'm going to be kicked out anyway,
I can do whatever I want.
Stop it.
He doesn't deserve it.
If something happens to Han Su because of this,
I will sue you.
For illegal filming and attempted rape.
Let's go.
I don't want to be here any more.
Why did it have to turn out this way?
"The Little Mermaid"?
Yes. Byung Ho said the book would let him know...
how to save Su Ah.
How does it end?
Doesn't she live with the prince happily ever after?
That's how the animation ends.
The original story has a totally different ending.
Whatever you talked about with Han Su,
it wasn't your fault that he attempted suicide.
Why are you giving me such expensive shoes?
It's like a scholarship.
It's a special present from the general manager...
to the student who works and studies hard.
Thank you, sir.
There's no need to.
Would you like to go grab something to eat?
We can talk a bit too.
Take it easy.
If you finish all the food here, I'll order some more.
I've never been to a place like this before.
If there's anything that troubles you, tell me everything.
No matter what it is.
Okay, sir. Thank you very much.
You do?
If you're so thankful, would you like to run an errand?
It's just a simple errand.
An errand, sir?
You're close friends with Kim Han Su, right?
Yes.
I need to say something to him...
and I want you to pass it on to him on my behalf.
With this picture.
That's Su Ah. Why do you want me to...
You don't need to know why.
If you do me this one favor,
you will never have any problem in school.
You're supposed to drink after clinking glasses.
Yes, sir.
We wasted time.
What do you mean?
It didn't have to be something like, "Jump out of the rooftop"...
or "Hang yourself on the window sill",
but we need a direct message that told him to commit suicide.
But "The Little Mermaid" is...
I don't think it's enough to prove Lee Tae Seok's crime.
Still, Byung Ho plucked up his courage to say that.
Don't say it was a waste of time.
This isn't the best situation, but what can we do?
He's been dragging on and now he finally opened his mouth.
But none of what he said is helping.
Thank you for making that stubborn boy talk.
Why are you...
always like that?
Only the results are important to you.
Don't you want to know why the kids had to make such decisions?
It's not like my curiosity can prove Han Su's innocence.
It might not prove his innocence,
but it will help you understand him better.
Have you ever genuinely wondered...
why Han Su tried to kill himself...
and why Su Ah had to die?
Isn't it obvious?
Han Su was blackmailed to kill himself because of Su Ah.
Su Ah was used to entertain people...
and then got killed.
So anyone who gets blackmailed should kill themselves...
and anyone who was used to entertain people should get killed?
Han Su and Su Ah must have had their own situations.
And Byung Ho too.
To people like you and Prosecutor Cha,
results are probably all that matters.
But what matters more to me is to know...
why my students had to make such decisions.
I need to know that...
so I can keep them from making any more bad decisions.
That's what the teachers do.
When things are settled,
you'll go back to being an attorney,
but Byung Ho and the kids will have to stay in the mess, the school.
So please...
don't judge and hurt them so easily.
As long as you're teaching in school,
you're a teacher...
to the children.
"The Little Mermaid"?
Why...
(Misook Bookstore)
(The Little Mermaid)
"Haste, then."
"He or you must die..."
"before sunrise."
"The little mermaid, who sacrificed herself..."
"for the happiness of the prince whom she loved,"
turned into sea foam and disappeared.
No. It can't be.
I need to tell them.
I must tell them the truth.
Byung Ho.
Beom Jin.
I was worried.
You didn't look well all day today.
What's wrong? Is someone bullying you again?
Nothing.
I checked every surveillance video...
of every street and alley, but there's nothing left.
I don't think this is right.
We need at least straws to grasp at if we want to look for something.
We're just wasting our time. There's nothing there.
"Special Law on Deregulation"?
What's that?
Did you find something?
Look here.
"A Special Law on Deregulation for the structural reform..."
"and empowerment of failing universities."
Yu Yang Ki proposed this law.
Private foundations running middle or high schools...
can acquire failing colleges determined to require empowerment.
A high school can acquire a college?
That's right. The law simplifies the process and makes it easier.
But seeing as this was proposed to the National Assembly...
almost a year ago, but hasn't been passed yet,
something must have fallen through.
Anyway, why does a current assemblyman...
and someone who was rumored to be a presidential candidate...
work with a dirtbag like Lee Tae Seok?
Maybe you're taking it too far.
There's no evidence other than that he proposed a bill.
The planner.
Planner?
There's a safe in Lee Tae Seok's office.
There were a planner and a cell phone.
A safe...
Then the planner in there...
Probably has a list of people who received sexual favors,
and the cell phone has their numbers.
If we get those two items, we may have something...
more concrete than everything we have gathered so far.
Then... Don't tell me you...
Get ready. Let's go.
Darn it.
Get ready!
Yes. That's exactly it.
They have to give in.
How nice would it have been if they had done this sooner?
They wasted my precious time.
What...
What was that?
Who's there?
Know your place.
Who do you think you are?
First, you bug me and follow me,
and now, you come to me yourself?
Come at me! Come in, you jerk!
Let's put an end to this today!
Gi Hoon?
What are you doing here?
Why did you do it?
You must be doing this because of what happened that night.
Darn it. It's okay!
I made up with your father,
so put that down.
Why did you do that to Su Ah?
What?
If you didn't make her do that, nothing would've happened.
If you had just left her alone,
no one would've gotten hurt.
Why are you suddenly playing the blame game?
You tried to make her yours and failed,
so you became her stalker taking pictures secretly.
What? Did you think I didn't know?
You punk.
That awesome dad of yours...
came here and begged like mad...
to make sure his precious son's record isn't tarnished.
You punk.
It isn't me.
You're the one holding your dad back!
Got that? You punk.
Now that you know,
shut your mouth and go to school diligently.
Darn it. Mr. Lee...
couldn't keep his son under control and created this mess.
Why you!
Darn it.
You jerk.
Die.
You brat. You have no respect for your elders.
What? Butler Lee?
Did you think I didn't know, you punk?
Die.
Get over here, punk.
If it weren't for your father...
You're a lucky punk.
You lucked out with good parents, you rude punk.
Hey. Scram. Got it?
If you barge in here again, I'll really kill you. Got that?
You punk.
I don't want to go to work.
I wish...
when I wake up tomorrow, the school would've exploded.
I agree with you.
It was sweet because it was exam time.
The students will flood into the office starting tomorrow...
to complain.
"Why is this answer wrong? Maybe there are two right answers."
They get their test papers checked by college professors.
Then why do they ask us to submit the questions?
They should just get them from a professor.
Okay, let's drink.
Let's drink.
What is wrong with you?
We finally get to hang out now that exams are over,
but you're silent like you're in mourning.
What's wrong? Is something wrong?
This is unlike you.
Listen carefully to what I'm about to say,
and answer me honestly.
Why are you getting so serious? You're scaring me.
Something really must be wrong.
What is it?
While you were working at the school,
were you instructed...
to manipulate a student record or to give awards...
or other recognition to certain students?
Please be honest with me. This is important.
Well...
I don't know about manipulating them, but isn't giving awards...
to designated students a common practice?
I'm a music teacher, so I need to look after the music students.
We have a few at our school...
Kids like Tae Ra.
Those awards were crucial for the kids to get into good colleges.
We had no choice.
Only school awards can be put in the student record.
But why are you asking that all of a sudden?
The prosecutors will investigate our school soon.
Investigate? The prosecutors?
All we did was make up a few awards. Is that really necessary?
General Manager Lee...
tampered with Tae Ra's student record...
to fund the takeover of the university.
He also handed out awards exclusively to the Veritas kids.
When the investigation starts,
his other wrongdoings will be discovered as well.
My goodness. The whole school will be in chaos.
And the parents will go crazy.
Probably.
But this might be our chance.
Chance?
Our chance to solve the problems...
that we have been ignoring...
and give the school back to our students.
- Gosh. - Mu Hyeok.
Are you sure no one is here?
All the lights are off.
Today was the last exam day,
so everyone has left. Come.
What are you doing? Come on.
Gosh.
What? What's wrong?
Hold on.
What is it?
What?
Lee Tae Seok?
(Class of Lies / Mr. Temporary)
Someone murdered Lee Tae Seok and disguised it as suicide.
That's neat.
At this rate, the investigation will be wrapped up in no time.
We have concluded that Mr. Lee committed suicide.
The investigation will be terminated here.
You're working on another Cheonmyung High School case.
Someone died this time too.
I hope this won't affect us.
How dare you talk that way about my dad?
Why did you hide it? Does that lawyer have something on you?
I trust Beom Jin more than I trust anyone else.
That proves how oblivious you are.
Could Beom Jin...
Who did he do that to?
Everyone who was bullying me has disappeared from the school now.
He must have wanted to keep his mouth shut by all means.
You don't have to say anything. Anything at all.
