(Episode 25)
You're here.
What happened?
How...
How could this happen?
This can't happen.
This can't be.
You...
Don't worry.
I took care of it all.
I protected...
my father again, didn't I?
What happened?
The nearby station has been informed...
that someone heard a woman scream.
And the criminals were...
trying to dump Wu Young Ae's body.
What do you mean, the criminals?
It's them over there.
What's your motive?
Isn't it obvious?
I did it for money.
It was also them...
who kidnapped Jang Ju Won.
And they confessed that he's the culprit...
of both Saekyung Orphanage Case...
and...
Mugwan Mountain Case.
What?
Anyway, it was all us.
- Why do you keep asking? - Stop messing around.
What trick are you playing?
How could a criminal that didn't get caught for the last ten years...
get arrested this easy?
Do you feel sorry?
Then you should've caught the criminal ten years ago.
Detective La.
It's been a while.
What?
You ran into me at the Saekyung Orphanage.
Where you hit me still hurts.
You...
Are you out of your mind?
How dare you kill my son's mother!
She had it coming.
What?
Your wife was...
going to the report this evidence to the SIU.
It could've been a disaster, Father.
You crazy freak!
The reporters will be coming soon.
What?
Tell the reporters...
that you heard about this tragedy while discussing...
for housing welfare at the foundation.
A candidate for mayor who lost his wife...
during a policy meeting...
It's a story that people would like.
When did you find out about your wife's death?
I heard you found out later because of the policy meeting.
How are you feeling now?
Did you know about the details?
Do you have someone in mind...
- who would do this? - Candidate Jang!
Are you okay, sir?
Father.
You better shed tears.
Candidate Jang Do Sik of Korea Party won...
in the 2019 mayoral election with 797,024 votes...
and become the next mayor of Saekyung City.
It's a landslide victory over Jung Mi Hee of Kangho Party,
who received 514,302 votes.
Election experts say the death of Jang Do Sik's wife has been...
a major cause of sympathy...
Goodness.
Where was the hammer found?
It was found in a ditch 100 meters away from the crime scene.
Is that the component analysis report?
Yes.
Not only Wu Young Ae's blood and skin tissue,
but the DNA of the Saekyung Orphanage Case's victims were found.
Even the victims of Saekyung Orphanage?
Yes.
It looks like the criminal has been...
using this hammer all along.
Ma Sang Taek, Kim Do Hwan.
Stop messing around.
How can the Saekyung New Town be a motive for mass murder?
I told you already. It was for the money.
What?
I even borrowed from a loan shark...
to invest in Saekyung New Town.
But that darn orphanage nearly put me on the street.
How am I supposed to stay still?
What about Wu Young Ae?
What about the bodies that were buried in Mugwan Mountain?
It was all because of money.
Jung Mi Hee has to be elected,
so the Future Farm project...
that Kangho Party promised would proceed.
We invested money there too.
Your tricks won't work on me.
You said I ran into you ten years ago.
Then you must remember...
whether the place we fight was...
the main building or the annex.
Of course.
It was the main building.
And I killed your niece at the annex.
- What? - Your niece was dead...
in a single cast.
Look at her!
Goodness gracious.
Si On!
Stop!
Gosh.
How's Ju Won doing?
His psychological test result is bad.
- They say he has mutism. - Mutism?
Due to the trauma, he is refusing to talk.
He's as feeble-minded as his mother.
How are they doing at the SIU?
They even impignorated their family's organs by gambling.
They're doing their part well.
Did you put it where it can be found easily?
Of course.
They've probably finished analyzing it.
They've got evidence and confession.
They have no place to retreat.
This won't last long.
Soon the chief prosecutor and the media will...
pressure them inside and out.
We need to bring the SIU down first.
That won't be enough.
You've got to teach...
Lee Jae Sang whether he poured water or oil...
to put out the fire.
We seized and searched...
both Ma Sang Taek and Kim Do Hwan's houses.
But the belongings of the buried bodies were found in large numbers.
I don't understand what the heck is going on now.
How's Ju Won?
He's still in the hospital.
He seems to be very traumatized.
Ji Ho.
What have I done?
Are you satisfied?
You've pushed ahead how you wanted.
I'm regretting it bitterly.
Regret?
That word is...
used only when you couldn't predict the future.
Wu Young Ae died in a great deal of pain.
Her son will never be able to get over it.
- I"m sorry. - What's more absurd is...
that the truth has become more unclear.
- I'm deeply sorry. - Why did you even...
become a prosecutor?
Since you made a fortune as a lawyer,
did you want to make an achievement as a public officer?
- It's nothing like that. - Then what is it?
Are you trying to run...
for office later?
I didn't want to lose you again!
- What? - I can't see you get hurt anymore!
What are you talking about?
I had a dream.
It was about you getting badly hurt.
Are you talking...
about that dream again?
No matter how I tell you the truth,
you'd say I'm crazy.
I'm glad you know.
Are you still sick?
If you're not going to believe me,
don't ask anymore.
I don't want to be called a lunatic.
- What? - My motivation is simple.
It's just you.
Is this even working? I feel like I already had 300.
Geez!
The suspect in the decade-long Mugwan Mountain Hammer Case has...
confessed to the crime.
And the criticism of the Saekyung district SIU is mounting.
In particular, angry citizens claim to punish...
the prosecutor Lee Jae Sang who led the investigation.
The suspect in Mugwan Mountain Hammer Case was never...
included in the list...
of the initial police investigation.
Also, suspicions are growing fast through social networks...
that Prosecutor Lee has won cases such as the hit-and-run case,
the abuse of children by plutocrats,
and the third generation conglomerate...
of Hongwoo Group assault case by illegally stealing...
and deleting evidence while practicing as a lawyer.
What's happening?
What are you doing?
How could you lead an investigation like this?
You poured oil on the fire when I supported you!
I apologize.
You couldn't save a victim,
and the culprits walked in with their own feet.
You've done nothing.
We're still...
investigating whether they're the culprit.
Is that why you're not prosecuting with the definite evidence?
Everywhere I go, people are talking the wicked lawyer has...
ruined the prosecution.
Apparently,
you got my mentally deranged wife...
involved in the case.
Pardon?
(Doctor's note)
The deceased has been treated...
for schizophrenia for more than seven years.
You've made a wild investigation with someone...
who couldn't judge normally.
I am...
truly sorry.
Don't you think it's too late?
If I only hadn't been greedy,
your wife wouldn't have been insulted that way.
What?
She's the mother of your own son.
Do you really want to do this?
Did you have to make...
your late wife an insane woman?
Stop!
It's okay.
You got it wrong from the beginning.
Do you think I'd wanted my wife to die because she'd gone mad?
She's my child's mother.
I'll cut to the chase.
For abuse of official authority, I filed a criminal suit...
against Prosecutor Lee.
- That is... - He didn't go...
through the due process when he questioned the deceased.
The head of the institute said...
there had been a secret deal between them.
How dare you do such a ridiculous thing...
as a prosecutor?
- Sir... - I don't want to hear from you.
If you're officially indicted,
you'll be suspended from work.
You'd better be prepared for it.
[Kocowa Ver] MBC E25 'Welcome2Life' "She Died Because of Me" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
Is anyone out there?
No way!
Help me!
Really?
So one of the subjects doesn't show any side effects?
Not yet, sir.
You must keep it that way.
Increase the amount of the substance and watch how it goes.
I will, sir.
(Parking lot)
No. I'll sleep at the recording studio today.
Yes, in the morning,
I'll go there from here right away.
I can't wait any longer.
Something dangerous might happen then.
Well, I'll look for it.
Okay. I'll call you soon.
What?
Are you saying you're Sun Woo?
It's been a while,
Father.
How dare you call me Father?
Look at him.
He takes after his mom.
What now?
Are you here to rip me off just like your mom?
If I'm not your real son, why did you save me?
What?
You knew it was me...
who smashed Mom's head.
And it's you, Father, who covered it as a robber crime.
Shut your mouth already.
Don't you call me Father!
I'm here to help you this time.
I just got rid Ahn Su Ho...
and of all those in the orphanage.
What did you say?
These are the documents and a stamp Director Ahn prepared...
to get a subsidy from the government.
With these, you can forge the real estate deal document.
Are you crazy?
This is a contract between us.
If the police suspect you as an offender, hand this in.
Are we good now?
What?
Sir.
Let's go.
I can't eat it anymore.
I feel like I'll lay eggs this way. Can we stop eating the eggs?
Just eat for the nation and the people.
There has been a homicide case in a grilled-egg factory.
To collect the samples to compare with the evidence,
we need as many shells as possible.
I knew it.
You're too frugal to afford all these for us!
You're spitting the egg on me!
Then just take the shells and throw the eggs away.
I'm too full to eat all these!
Not finishing food is a grave sin!
Then why are we two the only ones eating here?
You should eat too!
- Eat it. - Right.
Eat the shells too!
Officer Bang is the only one who cares about me.
This is my... You scared me!
Good evening, sir!
I didn't know which one is your favorite so I bought them all.
Geez.
How come you never see how faithful I am?
I want to catch the offender so desperately.
Ridiculous.
Sir,
please help me.
We're not friends.
- Come on! - Stop...
Listen.
You're too sloppy to go after criminals.
Do you know how hard it is to carry out investigations properly?
You'll be utterly ostracized...
not only from your family but also from other prosecutors!
I know that's why your ex-wife left you.
You know what?
Whenever I think of my daughter, I feel really bad.
Do you know what So Young wrote in her diary when she was eight?
"I'm good at studying, my mom is good at cooking,"
"and my dad is good at leaving home to work."
What the heck?
What's wrong with you?
Are you mad?
But it's so sad...
that she wrote that you are good at leaving home to work.
Isn't it really heartbreaking?
Goodness.
Sir,
think about it.
Wouldn't you do everything you can do...
if you can console So Young...
who's living with the scars you gave?
Of course, I would.
I would do the same too.
I broke the heart the one...
who is the most precious to me.
I wish I could...
apologize to the person at least.
- You'll see it if you turn right. - Thank you.
Didn't you get wounded?
I'm sorry.
Your mother died because of me.
I can't tell you the details...
but I made a deal that I shouldn't have made.
That's why your mother passed away.
It's going to be...
an arduous fight.
Do you think you can take it?
Yes.
What can't a mother do...
when it comes to saving her own child?
Your mother said this.
There was nothing she couldn't do...
if it's to save her own child.
She also said she thought about you...
every time she breathed.
I'm sorry.
I took such a great mother away from you.
I'm really sorry.
I apologize.
I'm so sorry.
I have no idea what's in his mind.
Are you still working?
Detective Gu, are you from the central office?
Yes. I transferred the case of Ma Sang Taek and Kim Do Hwan.
Is this the investigation report?
I feel like things are getting complicated.
Me too.
Obviously, it's not them.
But they have conclusive evidence...
and gave detailed statements on the orphanage case.
It's giving me a headache.
It must be either of these two. They are the real culprits,
or the real one gave them instructions.
You haven't gone home for days. Go take some rest.
And here it is.
- It's for you. - For me?
Yes, it is.
You gave me socks.
Detectives need about three pairs of socks a day.
You often lose just one side, so I bought them in the same color.
I see.
Thank you.
- I'm sorry. - For what?
I never really bought gifts for women.
I tried but that was all I can think of.
Detective Gu,
it really makes me feel uneasy.
It makes me feel uncomfortable with you.
I know.
That's exactly what I wanted.
I don't want you to feel comfortable with me.
I want to be someone who you care about.
- Detective Gu... - It will get better day by day.
I will...
try harder.
My life is totally unpredictable.
Who are...
Lee Jae Sang!
Hey! Get up now!
I said get up already.
Gosh, you stink.
How much did you drink?
Si On.
Are you out of your mind? How dare you come in here?
Get up!
Si On.
- You... - Am I back?
I mean, are you back now?
What on earth are you talking about?
I'm so sorry.
I'm really sorry.
I'm sorry I couldn't protect you.
I'll protect you this time.
I'll protect you and Bo Na this time no matter what.
Stay by my side, please.
I'm really sorry.
I'm sorry.
It's my fault.
I'm so sorry.
(Episode 26 will air shortly.)
(Episode 26)
- My stomach! - I'm so full.
I think I'm sick.
Now,
take this.
The pharmacist told me it'll be digested in no time...
if you take two before meals.
I think I ate enough eggs for a lifetime.
Even my burp...
- It stinks! - It still smells like chicken poop.
Stop it.
- Just stop. - What's buzzing?
Hey!
The eggshell experiment was a success thanks to you.
- Egg? - I think we can catch the criminal.
- Egg? - Next time...
I'll buy you eggs again!
- Eggs... - Is it eggs again?
A person you care about...
That's funny. You only care about yourself.
What's wrong with that?
All humans are selfish.
Wanting to be with the person you care about...
Wanting that person to laugh...
I want them to make me happy.
I only care about myself,
so I hate being hurt.
That's why I joined the SIU.
So I can make her happy.
What are you thinking about?
Officer Bang,
I can't say who it is,
but a person changed...
because of another person.
Does that make sense?
- What? - I mean...
There's this mean fool.
But he joined an organization that's bound for trouble,
just because of a woman.
You did?
What, I...
Anyway,
there's a guy like that.
But would you trust that kind of man?
- Yes, I would. - You would?
What's wrong with your eye?
Where did I leave the initial investigation report?
Maybe it's on Si On's desk.
(Lee Jae Sang is captured by La Si On.)
My back!
Gosh.
Where is this?
What?
Where am I?
What's this?
Good morning.
You were whining about getting a mosquito bite,
so I put an onion bag on you.
Are you insane?
What are you doing?
Take this off now. Did you kidnap me?
I live here alone,
and yet you come here drunk.
How did you find out the password?
No, it's not that,
I don't remember anything.
Tell me the truth!
Why would I come here?
I'm the one getting in danger when I come here!
- What? - The password is 77777!
Is five sevens even a password?
Did you leave it easy so that you can attack a robber at home?
You said you didn't remember!
Wait!
We have to get to work!
You!
How did you get the password?
How did you get it?
Detective Yang, I'm busy, so...
Stop, it hurts!
We're in trouble! Get here quick.
Why?
- Help... - Stop the injustice!
Stop the injustice!
Evil prosecutors should resign!
Resign!
How dare you target people during investigations!
How dare you!
Lee Jae Sang who threatens victims' life...
- should resign! - He's there!
Lee Jae Sang!
Oh Young Sik,
we arrest you for special violence on this very spot.
I'll kill you!
I will kill you, Lee Jae Sang!
Let me go!
Let go of me!
Thank you again.
I would've felt victimized and be practically dead...
if it weren't for you.
I'm sorry.
I'm really sorry!
This is all my fault.
Prosecutor,
I feel ashamed...
treating you with these cheap foods when you've worked so hard.
I didn't abide by the law when I was young,
and led my son...
to the wrongful way.
This is Oh Young Sik's father,
Oh Beom Gu's criminal records.
He was charged with seven cases of accident insurance fraud...
and was penalized three times.
Please...
Please forgive us!
Today,
I'll let you off with a warning.
Go home.
Why are you here?
- Stop! - Are you satisfied?
Because of you,
my mother fainted and I can't go to school.
I'm working two part jobs to get by.
The money you made is...
what my life paid for.
How can you be a prosecutor!
Oh Young Sik...
I can charge you for obstruction of justice...
- if you keep making a scene. - Detective Gu.
You couldn't protect me when I was the victim.
Why are you protecting this scum?
Why?
This is my job.
Whether it be Mother Teresa or Hitler,
if that person is in danger, it's my job to protect that person.
Young Sik...
I'm thankful...
for what you did just now.
Don't get me wrong.
I want to kill you right now, but I'm barely holding it in.
I'm sorry.
This is a mess just because of you.
You're the one who has been protecting the wicked people,
but why are we getting the blame as well?
I'm sorry.
I used to wish...
you would quit being a lawyer.
You know why?
Because you kept winning against us.
But now...
I want to beg you to go back to your world.
I've never felt this empty inside.
I've been waiting and trying for so long...
but my sincerity is...
being ignored,
just because of you.
Come in, both of you.
Lee Jae Scum!
Yes?
You're going to be indicted...
for abuse of official authority.
Jang Do Sik's side raised criminal charges...
and proceeded quite smoothly.
The prosecutor in charge is...
Lee Jae Duk.
What?
He graduated from the institute with Mr. Kang!
This SIU will also be disbanded soon.
- The chief prosecutor told me. - What?
If we're gone,
Jang Do Sik's people will take our place.
All investigations will be delayed.
Ma Sang Taek and Kim Do Hwan will
be acquitted of all cases except Wu Young Ae's case.
Lee Jae Sang!
Can you finish this case in one week?
Pardon?
The mayor inauguration ceremony will be held in one week,
and you'll be indicted by then.
We'll be disbanded as well.
What you're saying...
I really hate you,
but we need to be strategical partners now.
Can you do it?
Yes,
I'll do it.
Officer Bang.
Finally,
I found where Ji Yang Hee is.
Really?
She's been staying at a senior care center after the accident.
I'll send you the hospital's information.
Samuel Senior Care Center...
What is it?
Do you know this place?
I've been there before.
This is also interesting.
Ji Yang Hee's son, Ji Sun Woo was...
a victim of the Saekyung Orphanage Case.
What?
During the Saekyung Orphanage Case,
Ji Sun Woo also died on the spot.
What you mean is,
the mother and son were killed by the same person?
If Ji Yang Hee is fine...
- there must be a way. - What do you mean?
Hypnosis.
During the case of attempted murder of a woman at Yipyung-dong,
we found the conclusive evidence through the hypnosis of witnesses.
The one scene that was hidden in the unconscious mind can...
be conclusive sometimes.
Well, we have one week left.
Don't take up your time with impossible things.
Detective Gu and Detective Yang will...
go to Samuel Senior Care Center.
The rest will investigate the death of Ji Sun Woo.
- Start moving! - Yes, sir.
There might be...
a hidden scene in my mind as well.
Detective La!
- What? - You just mentioned...
investigation through hypnosis.
Was that your case?
Yes.
Can I get...
that hypnosis today?
What?
One of the test subjects seems promising.
Really?
When I get the results,
I'll tell you right away.
I see that Mr. Yun is working very hard.
In one week,
you will officially start working as a mayor.
It would be more accurate to say he already started.
What happens to the CEO position...
of Baekgeum Constructions?
A board member of Baekgeum Constructions...
will be appointed.
How about me?
Board members are strangers.
How can you fully trust a person if they're not family?
Mr. Yun.
If I give you this difficult position,
I would feel relieved.
It was the same ten years ago.
And even now,
I can be your strongest partner.
(Samuel Senior Care Center)
Why is this place so stranded?
Ji Yang Hee?
Her left brain was damaged,
and she has had speech and motor impairment since then.
Is it impossible to communicate?
Sometimes she seems fine,
but she's almost incapable of making rational judgments.
Excuse me.
Why does she keep singing by herself?
[Kocowa Ver] MBC E26 'Welcome2Life' "You Have One Week" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
Ji Yang Hee.
Do you think we can investigate her?
Gelsomina?
She used to work at a hostess bar,
and I think that was her nickname.
Gelsomina?
Oh, wow.
It's Gelsomina,
right?
What took you so long?
A witness of Ji Yang Hee's case appeared?
Yes.
But I haven't gotten any reports.
Where did the witness come from all of a sudden?
It just happened.
And the witness doesn't remember the face of the criminal?
Is that why you need a hypnotic investigation?
We'll talk when we get there.
It's been a while, Detective La.
How have you been?
This is the prosecutor in charge.
I'm Lee Jae Sang.
Thank you for agreeing to such a sudden request.
You're welcome.
Is the person to be hypnotized here?
Yes, that would be me.
What?
Really?
Did it happen a long time ago?
No, it wasn't that long ago.
- It was on August 27th. - Prosecutor.
We could improve accuracy...
if it was recent.
All right, then. I'll get ready.
Have you lost your mind?
Why would you get a hypnotic investigation?
Because I saw the criminal.
What?
I saw the criminal commit the crime with my own eyes.
You're not normal, are you?
You were in the hospital on August 27th.
How could you have seen the criminal?
No.
I was awake at the time.
Are you talking about the dream again?
- What is wrong with you? - Si On.
I wish it was a dream too.
Okay?
Do you know how long I've waited?
Who were you...
waiting for?
Mister.
Come on.
You were the one who made my name, "Gelsomina".
You said I resemble her.
Don't you remember this song?
"Mister"?
You mean Sun Woo's father?
Yes.
Sun Woo.
You even named...
your son, "Sun Woo" after the company.
You wanted him to be successful.
Miss Ji.
Do you remember...
the day of the incident?
You came here...
because you hurt your head.
What happened that day?
Who made you like this?
Go.
Go away.
Miss Ji.
You ruined my life.
If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have turned out this way.
Miss Ji.
- Get lost. - Hey.
- Should I... - Call the nurse.
- Nurse! - Calm down.
Miss Ji.
Where's the nurse?
Miss Ji.
Please calm down, Miss Ji.
Your body is...
completely asleep.
You're not conscious...
of anything else.
From now on,
we're going...
back in time.
In one,
two.
Si On.
Si On?
Where are you now?
I'm...
in 15-7 Jaehwa-dong.
Si On.
I'm in the yard...
of a deserted house.
Look around the yard.
What do you see?
Si On.
Si On!
My wife is...
tied up.
Si On is...
Si On is tied up.
What did...
you do?
Si On!
What's wrong?
I got hit in the head.
And I lost my consciousness.
Now,
fast-forward your image,
and go to the moment when you're awake.
In 1, 2, and 3.
Si On.
Si On is still tied up.
She's...
- She's in danger. - Jae Sang.
Now...
look around.
Is there someone else?
What are you doing?
What...
What are you doing?
It's him.
That man is there.
Who do you mean...
by that man?
He's wearing a black hat.
He's the killer with the hammer.
What is the killer with the hammer...
- doing right now? - Jae Sang.
He's singing a strange song.
What kind of song is it?
Now,
look closely at the man.
What are you doing?
Don't touch her. No!
Don't you touch her.
Hey!
Don't lay a finger on her.
I beg you.
Please, I beg you.
He's holding the hammer,
and he's going to Si On.
I beg of you!
Help me.
She's...
She's crying out.
Please don't touch her.
Please don't.
- Please. - Jae Sang!
Please don't hurt her.
I...
It'll be okay.
It's okay.
No.
Don't touch her.
Calm yourself.
You're going to zoom in...
and observe the situation.
He has subordinates.
What do they look like?
This...
one guy has...
a tattoo on his neck.
It's a tattoo of a bat.
This time,
you're going to zoom in to the killer with the hammer.
In 1, and 2...
Don't kill her.
Please.
Please don't touch her.
Don't you touch her.
Please!
He's...
whispering...
something.
Now,
you can see and hear clearly.
It's...
three...
- laps. - three...
laps.
It's okay.
No.
Don't do it.
No.
- Please don't. - Save me!
Please.
No.
No, Si On.
Don't do that to her.
No!
On the count of three,
- you will wake up. 1, 2, and 3. - No.
No way.
What are you?
What happened just now?
It's exactly what you saw.
You saw the killer with the hammer while you were on the bed?
No,
so you woke up from a coma...
and went to Ji Yang Hee's house.
You're half right and half wrong.

- Si On. - How am I your wife?

I was in a different world!
What?
While I was in a coma,

Sun Woo.
Did you come to see your mom?
