We meet again, Ms. Hong.
It's been a while, hasn't it?
You chased me last year just like this, didn't you?
The day Kim Ian died...
You were the one who came after me, weren't you?
(The Night of Encouragement)
(Episode 21)
(The Night of Encouragement)
You finally remember me.
Gosh, it's been really hard to keep that from you all this time.
Why did you come to my aunt's flower shop?
What are you planning to do to her?
Look here.
Don't get so worked up.
As soon as I find my stuff,
I'll disappear quietly.
As long as you don't make me mad,
I won't do anything.
As long as you don't make me mad.
What is it that you're looking for?
You told me in the warehouse that you were looking for something.
I'll find it for you.
Tell me what it is.
And...
And please don't show up in front of my family again.
You're going to find it for me?
I'll find it for you. I promise.
But in exchange,
please tell me what happened that day.
You know what happened, don't you?
That day a year ago.
What happened that day?
(The Night of Encouragement)
What do you want?
Since when did you get acquainted with Chairman Jang?
Why did you come with him?
After making a scene and crying in front of you,
I went to him...
because I've wasted many opportunities because to you.
Did you tell Jang Yoon about that night?
What on earth were you thinking to have told him such a thing?
I only told him exactly what I had seen.
You did follow Kim Ian's car that day.
I saw everything.
I told you that I went home.
You're mistaken.
Don't you lie to me.
Since that day, you've become interested in Yi Young.
Before that day, you only knew her name.
Or did you even know her name?
Did you tell Jang Yoon...
because of Yi Young?
The reason behind it isn't important.
You wanted to break up with me because of her.
I told you it wasn't because of her.
If that's true, why are you staying by her side...
when you don't love her?
That's odd, isn't it?
I may be wrong about other things,
but I know that you don't love anyone. I know that much.
That's why it's stranger.
You received a permanent post one year after Ian died.
So what? That was all me.
I know. It's amazing.
I was very proud of you.
But still, getting that in just a year is a miracle.
Who gave you that position?
For what in return?
Continue.
I really want to know...
what you did to Yi Young...
that night.
I want to see you...
hit rock bottom.
And I'll be smiling.
You shouldn't joke around with such matters.
Do you think I'd believe you?
If I told you what I'm looking for,
you might hand that over to someone else.
Do I look that stupid to you?
I won't hand it over to anyone else.
I don't know what you're looking for,
and I couldn't care less about it.
But won't you get paid for finding it?
I'll help you.
Even if it's proof of murder?
Even if all sorts of dirty information are in that,
will you be able to live your life normally...
after handing me that?
You stabbed someone once...
and have been bawling your eyes out ever since.
Aren't I right?
I can do it.
I said, I can do it.
Like you said,
I've stabbed someone before.
Just quit working for my aunt.
Then I can do anything.
I'm moved by your affection towards your family,
but I don't trust anyone.
People are disgusting animals...
that lie even when they're in danger.
That night, one year ago,
there was someone else in that warehouse.
Someone else?
There was someone else apart from Ian and me?
Who are you? Don't you come near us.
Yi Young!
Who are you? Who are you?
Try to remember.
Stabbing someone doesn't necessarily mean murder.
What do you mean?
Are you saying...
that I might not be the one who killed Ian?
Who else was there?
That's for you to remember.
Remember who it was.
That person could be the real murderer.
Do you still have the pen...
that Shinyoung Philharmonic handed out as free gifts?
- Pen? - Find it and bring it to me.
Don't open it or try to find out what it is.
Just keep your mouth shut and do it discreetly.
Then I'll tell you...
the identity of the person who was in that warehouse.
Cheer up.
I'll give you my number.
Are you tailing me or what?
I didn't know you were so interested in me.
I'm disappointed. I had so much respect for you.
What did you do in exchange for receiving a permanent position?
Is that why you killed Ian?
You must be dying to make me look like a murderer.
I have one question.
Could you exchange your brother with something else?
You asked me such a ridiculous question.
For me, my work means...
the same as how your brother meant to you.
Let's say that I received this position like so.
If I wasn't competent enough, wouldn't everyone find out about it?
Do you think they'd let me be?
They'll try to fire me...
after my inaugural concert.
We'll talk again once it's over.
(I Wanna Hear Your Song)
Chairman Jang, please take good care of the orchestra.
The members are all very competent.
They're all very artistic.
Since when were you acquainted with Chairman Jang?
Ever since you kicked me out.
Don't you know how things work in this field?
Once the dust settled,
I was going to call you back, so how dare you betray me?
Don't you know how much I've done for you?
What matters is the outcome.
Isn't that how all things are?
I guess you don't really like Chairman Jang.
He seemed to be very much interested in you, though.
What?
What kind of interest?
Well, in many aspects.
Oh, right.
How's your secretive institution doing these days?
Thank you for everything you've done for me.
Hey. You...
How dare you?
That little...
Have a seat.
Did you do something wrong? Keep your chin up.
- Aunt. - You don't need to explain.
Soo Young told me everything.
Why didn't you tell me sooner?
How did you endure it by yourself?
Don't cry.
I decided not to cry anymore.
And I'll forget about it.
I'm not avoiding the situation.
I just can't...
I just can't wrap my head around the fact...
that you've stabbed someone.
I raised you, so I believe I know who you are.
But I remember doing it.
Soo Young told me...
that when one is traumatized,
they can fabricate their memory.
Yes, it's completely understandable.
You're too kindhearted,
so the guilt must've tormented you.
It's all right.
From today on, I won't allow you to go home.
Stay with us for the time being.
I'll tell Soo Young to sleep in the living room.
Okay?
Do you still have the pen...
that Shinyoung Philharmonic handed out as free gifts?
Pen?
Find it and bring it to me.
Then I'll tell you...
the identity of the person who was in that warehouse.
I need to remember. I must.
If I were to hide something somewhere,
where would that be?
What if I'm not the one who has it?
What are you doing there?
My goodness.
You've been on the run for a few days,
and now look at you.
Have you been waiting for long?
Keep your cell phone turned on.
Then you won't have to wait.
Did you just come home?
It was really boring.
Come inside.
This is Ian's cell phone. You can take a look.
Why did you suddenly want to see his stuff?
I thought maybe it might help me remember something.
I understand that you're trying hard to remember something,
but don't force yourself. Feel free to take a look.
Are you hungry?
Would you like some toast?
No, it's okay.
Do you still have the pen...
that Shinyoung Philharmonic handed out as free gifts?
I heated it up a little.
I looks like it'd be better for you to drink something warm.
Something happened today, right?
It's okay. You can tell me.
To be honest...
I met that guy from the warehouse.
Where?
At my aunt's flower shop.
He is working there as a part-timer.
He has a scar on the back of his hand.
And the moment I saw that,
I was suddenly reminded of that day.
He was the guy who chased after me last year...
on the day of the accident.
My relatives don't know about him.
I didn't want to put them in danger, so I didn't tell them.
What did he say to you?
He told me that everything will be fine...
as long as I don't anger him.
I think it'll be better for you...
to be with your family than to be alone.
Come on. I'll take you to your aunt's house.
What is it?
Never mind. It's nothing.
Let's go.
Find it and bring it to me.
Don't open it...
or try to find out what it is.
Just keep your mouth shut...
and do it discreetly.
Then I'll tell you...
the identity of the person who was in that warehouse.
What are you doing there?
What exactly is that thing you're looking for?
How much is it worth?
Will you give it to me if I tell you?
Don't show up before Yi Young.
And I want you to stay away from her family.
Tell me what it is that you're looking for.
How much is it worth?
You don't need to know what it is.
And as for the price,
it's worth about three million dollars.
Give me a more realistic number.
An amount that I can give and you deserve to get.
You're right.
That kind of money is quite unrealistic for a guy like me.
My gosh.
How about a briefcase that's filled...
with 500-dollar gift certificates?
If things become too heavy,
they end up bringing you bad luck.
Give me your cell phone.
Do you know anything about Nam Ju Wan,
the conductor of Shinyoung Philharmonic?
How would I know anything about a guy like him?
I'm using an illegal cell phone.
So my number might change.
I'll let you know if my number changes.
Call me once you have the money.
Then I'll give you what I have.
Tomorrow is the concert.
Do you have time for this?
That's nothing for you to be worried about.
Can you lend me some money? I'll pay you back.
What's it for?
I just need it for something.
You just need it?
Yes.
You should think about...
all the things you've said to me until now.
Do you remember how you behaved...
when you suddenly decided to move out last year?
You told me that you didn't even think of me as your father.
Why should I lend you money when that's how you think of me?
Explain to me...
so that I can understand.
How could you be audacious enough...
to ask me for money unconditionally...
when you don't even think of me as your own father?
Please.
I'll pay you back within a month.
I've never asked you for anything.
And I'll make sure to keep it that way.
By any chance, does this have something to do...
with what happened to Ian?
If that's the case, I refuse.
I don't want you involved in that case.
It makes me shudder.
If you need my money,
I want you to quit playing for Shinyoung Philharmonic...
and leave this country as fast as you can.
Then I'll lend you the money.
Ma'am!
Hey.
- Ma'am! - My goodness.
My goodness gracious.
Calm down.
Don't cling onto me like that.
My gosh, I know you like it.
Let me take that. My goodness.
Why is it so heavy? What is this?
What do you think? They're side dishes.
Ju Wan may seem like he was born and raised in Seoul,
but his palate is very old-fashioned.
Give me that.
I'm strong.
It's okay. I'll carry it.
Let's go.
What? Okay, fine.
Let me tell you why I have a statue of a horse's head on my desk.
This is Mendelssohn, the horse that won the Kentucky Derby...
two times in total.
You all know Mendelssohn, right? "Spring Song".
Just like this horse, I won't be distracted.
I want to gallop, only facing forward.
I won't forget where I started from. With that in mind...
Chairman Jang is here.
My gosh, you're all here.
I'm sorry I'm late.
It's nice to see you again today.
You're not here to talk about something serious, are you?
No.
What do you mean?
Why are you bringing up the conductor now out of all times?
Tomorrow is his inaugural concert.
Are you telling us to fire him as soon as he's inaugurated?
We'd be a laughing stock.
Well, you don't need to be so sensitive about this.
To entrust him to lead the 20th anniversary concert...
of Shinyoung Philharmonic,
an orchestra of a long history,
I just think he's not as experienced.
That crossed my mind briefly.
Not experienced?
That jerk.
So what if he made a donation?
We're an orchestra that's been running for 20 years.
He just joined us a few days ago.
How dare he tell us to fire a conductor?
He didn't tell us to fire Maestro Nam.
It's just that he seems inexperienced.
That's the same thing.
I told you he'd cause problems, didn't I?
I'm sure the inspection department is going to bring up about his son.
How will you handle that?
These days, bribery can be a serious problem.
As long as you don't make it a problem, there won't be.
Why do you keep butting in?
Isn't the college enough for you?
Taking money from the college isn't enough for you?
I'm taking money? Soo Hyang.
Are you in any position to yell at me right now?
This place is still running thanks to me.
Professor Kang.
Don't call me by my name in place of business.
I'm the chief director here.
I'll ask my dad why this place is still running.
Please know when not to butt in.
My gosh.
What is Professor Kang's problem with Chairman Jang?
Why is he so hostile?
Do you know anything about this?
Today, it's probably because of Maestro Nam.
He's been close to Professor Kang since college.
And Professor Kang is proud to have discovered Maestro Nam too.
Why did Chairman Jang bring up Nam Ju Wan?
Does he not like Nam Ju Wan?
I can't read his mind.
Just in case,
find me a probable cause to fire him.
We need a reason to fire the guy if we have to.
We need a reason.
Okay.
Maestro Nam, your grandma said she couldn't sleep at your place.
She said the house was too fancy.
- So? - I'm taking her to my place.
No, not my aunt's house. My place.
She can sleep in my room.
Okay. I'll head over there when I'm done.
- Okay. - Bye.
(Professor Kang)
Why are you here?
Chairman Jang wants to meet. I'm coming from the meeting.
I have a bad feeling about this.
I think he knows something. That's why he's stirring things up.
I'm not sure if he knows or is bluffing it.
But he mentioned you.
Me?
If things go south, you might have a break after the inaugural concert.
Brace yourself just in case that happens.
A break?
Does it mean you'll fire me?
I didn't do anything wrong. I shouldn't be fired.
I never said that you did.
Everyone knows that the orchestra dodged a bullet thanks to you.
Then why? How could you fire me?
We can easily come up with a reason.
You just get fired. There's no reason for it.
You must stop that from happening.
I'll try my best to stop it,
but I'm informing you just in case things go wrong.
Do you think firing me will resolve everything here?
If he knows something and this is his agenda, you're next.
Do you think I won't do anything if you fire me?
I won't go down alone.
Hey. Are you serious right now?
Are you even looking for Hong Yi Young's stuff?
Or did you already find it and have it in your possession?
You're not really that naive to think...
that it'd be okay as long as we find and get rid of it, right?
That doesn't mean anything.
Because of that meaningless thing, Kim Ian died.
Think about it. I know everything you did.
If you want to bury that, you should kill me.
Will you kill me too?
I can't believe this.
Hey, why would I kill someone? That's ridiculous.
This all happened because of you.
Because of you, Kim Ian died.
Had you not given Hong Yi Young that knife that day...
Stop it.
In the end, her life got messed up because of you.
You killed Kim Ian too. You're the murderer. Got that?
I told you to stop...
before my patience runs out.
Did you kill Ian?
Do you really not remember this knife?
You stabbed Ian with this knife.
Because of you, Kim Ian died.
Had you not given Hong Yi Young that knife that day...
Who's there?
Who are you?
Why are you doing this to us?
Who are you? Who are you?
(Episode 22)
Okay.
Welcome.
Here is the thing you've been looking for.
- This is it, right? - You really brought it to me.
You didn't open it, did you?
You told me not to.
You didn't open it...
because I told you not to?
We made a promise.
As long as...
I didn't watch it,
kept my mouth shut, and brought it to you,
you said that you'd tell me who was in the warehouse that day.
Yes.
I did promise you.
Please don't ever come to my aunt's flower shop.
I won't.
Now, tell me.
Who else was in the warehouse?
Do you like old songs?
What?
My mother listened to this song often.
Hurry up and answer me.
You promised that you'd tell me.
- Did I? - You did.
I've changed my mind.
I'll be able to receive a lot of money if I don't tell you.
Sir, why do you live like this?
I only gave this to you because of your promise.
I even lied to someone I liked.
Who?
Jang Yoon?
I'm not living this way because I chose to.
The world made me like this.
I've been a victim in the past.
So I'm always prepared.
I always keep a hidden card.
I'm going to take it out...
whenever the scumbags betray me.
Don't be ridiculous.
You chose to lie and leech off others.
That's all you.
How naive.
You don't know how this world goes around.
Do you know how dirty and vulgar this world is?
There's one thing I know, and it's that you're a liar.
Don't worry.
I might do a nice deed before I die.
If I die, do look out for it.
Who knows? I might've left you a present.
Don't toy with people.
Don't you ever appear in front of my family again.
If you do,
I'll go to the police station and spill everything.
Don't forget what I told you.
Where have you been so late at night?
I dropped by the convenience store.
This late?
Yes.
Why aren't you sleeping? The performance is tomorrow.
Just because. I couldn't sleep.
It feels like we haven't been able to see each other...
despite crossing paths several times, right?
Yes.
I'm sorry.
Ever since yesterday,
I've been feeling so helpless.
I feel like there's nothing I can do.
I'm frustrated with myself.
I was out here, in hopes of seeing your face.
Go in. Goodnight.
I'm sorry as well.
I'm truly sorry.
This all happened because of you.
Because of you, Kim Ian died.
In the end, her life got messed up because of you.
What did you do in exchange for receiving a permanent position?
Is that why you killed Ian?
(Y)
Hey, what is the present you have for me?
Did you find it?
You're so impatient.
I did.
If you give me the money you've promised, I'll hand it over.
You punk.
Hey, I don't even know if you're telling the truth or not.
So how could I give you the money?
Give it. Give it to me, you scumbag!
Give it to me first!
As we promised, I didn't open it.
Give it to me, you punk.
Darn it.
But if you don't pay me, I will open it.
So when will you give it to me?
Fine.
I'll pay you half the amount now.
I'll pay you the remaining half once you get rid of someone else.
Who is it?
Nam Ju Wan.
Don't kill him but make him beg for his life...
so that he will never talk down to me ever again.
After all that I did for him,
how dare he?
Why are you laughing?
Because it's funny.
You're all the same.
Hey, where are you going? Have you gone insane?
I've changed my mind.
I'll keep this.
So many others want this as well.
You can't just go like this, you dirtbag.
Hey.
Hey...
We keep running into each other. I think you'll grow on me.
To what do I owe the pleasure?
I have a favor to ask of you.
A favor? To ask of me?
Tell me what happened that night.
I'm not trying to get you in trouble.
I just want to know about what happened that night.
You didn't kill Ian, did you?
I told you that it wasn't me.
You're finally believing me.
Then who killed him and why?
And why does Yi Young think that she killed him?
Please tell me. I beg you.
Yoon. I mean, Do Hoon.
Where's the money?
That's the only way I'll talk.
Yes, I will get that money for you.
But it'll just take some time.
Then I'll be waiting.
Please, I beg you. I'll keep my promise.
Promise?
I'll tell you one thing.
This is no longer a secret anyway.
Yi Young wasn't the one...
who killed Ian.
He was stabbed, but he didn't die because of that.
Someone else killed him.
Who?
Who is that?
This is all that I can tell you for now.
Bring me the money.
Then I'll tell you the rest.
(Conductor Nam Ju Wan Inauguration Concert)
(Do Not Enter, In Rehearsal)
Good work, everyone.
The lunchboxes will be handed out in 30 minutes.
Please don't leave the building and stay in the green room.
- Okay. - All right.
My stomach hurts.
This is bad.
Again? Do you need some medicine?
It's of no use.
My stomach hurts every time before the performance.
It's okay.
I always used to throw up...
right before I went up on stage.
I drank one glass of soju every day.
- What? - What?
The rehearsal went really well today.
Did you eat dinner?
I don't have an appetite.
What do you want?
I came to wish you good luck.
The future of our orchestra is in your hands.
Why are you flattering me all of a sudden?
If, by any chance,
you happen to hear any bad rumors, don't let it get to you.
No matter what happens,
I'll do my best to protect you.
Okay?
You're the best.
I wish you all the best.
Hey, you're here.
Hello.
Maestro Nam, we're here.
Hey, I'm here as well.
My gosh, look at you. I love your outfit, Grandma.
My goodness. Come here, you little punk.
But wait a minute.
What's wrong with your face?
Didn't you get any sleep last night?
I couldn't sleep a wink...
because I felt so nervous about seeing you.
My goodness, you crazy punk.
President Ko volunteered to show your grandmother around.
He wants me to work.
- Go ahead. - Okay.
The number you've dialed is not available now.
He's been out of reach ever since yesterday.
I wonder if he's sick.
Who? Young Gil?
Yes.
We have a lot of deliveries planned for tomorrow.
So I was going to ask him to repot the plants and deliver them.
Maybe something came up.
Call him again tomorrow.
Meanwhile, I'll do all the work.
He works 10 times faster than you.
Anyway, I hope Soo Young...
arrives at the concert right on time.
My gosh, she's always so distracted.
I'm worried she might get there once the concert's over.
Did you send flowers?
Of course. It's the conductor's first concert.
Gosh, it's a pity that we're so busy today.
Do you think he'll feel upset that we're not there?
I'm sure he'll understand.
We can go see him next time...
when Yi Young also gets to perform with him.
But this is still an important concert for him.
You know what?
I should call him again.
(Flower Shop)
Are you on your way to confess your love or something?
I guess it's kind of similar.
Thank you.
Goodbye.
You look nice today.
You're not nervous, are you?
I rarely get nervous.
I'm jealous.
I wish you good luck.
It's okay even if you make mistakes,
so don't get nervous.
This isn't a solo concert.
I'll just play like I always do.
It practically is a solo concert.
You'll be performing the first encore.
Okay.
(Conductor's Room)
My goodness.
Who are you?
Is the conductor inside?
No, he's not here right now.
This is a restricted area, so you're not allowed in here.
How did you get in?
I walked inside.
Please give this to the conductor.
Wish him good luck for today's concert.
There's a separate place for gifts in the lobby.
Who should I say it's from?
A fan.
What do you want?
The concert's about to begin.
I found what I was looking for.
I called you yesterday, but you didn't answer.
You asked to meet me before the concert...
just so you could tell me that?
You talk as if it's nothing.
Someone died because of that.
Let's talk after the concert.
Do you know who gave me...
the stuff I was looking for?
It was Hong Yi Young.
He's not in the green room. I can't find him anywhere.
He hasn't even changed yet.
- How much time do we have left? - We have 15 minutes.
Let's look for him again.
Go backstage and see if he's there just in case.
Be careful and make sure the members don't find out.
They shouldn't know about this.
Okay.
Let's go this way.
Yi Young?
How? Did she get her memory back?
Or did you threaten her?
I didn't threaten her.
It was a deal.
She asked me to tell her what happened last year.
So I threw a bait.
I told her that there was one more person that day...
other than her and Ian.
I said I'd tell her who it was...
if she brought me what I needed.
And she actually brought it to me.
She's so naive.
So...
- did you tell her? - No, I didn't.
I did well, didn't I?
In order to sell this to you,
I should stay quiet.
I'll give it to you if you want it.
But instead,
you'd better pay me.
How dare you set foot here...
and talk to me about money?
Why? What's wrong with coming here?
Is it because it's where you'll be performing?
What does that have anything to do with me?
I don't have time for this. Let's talk next time.
"Next time"?
There won't be a next time.
Professor Kang asked me to make you beg for your life...
in return for paying me the rest of the money.
What?
It's disgusting, isn't it?
I really can't forgive you guys.
You turned me into a murderer...
and didn't even pay me.
You look down on money thinking you're quite special.
And you treat me like trash.
Professor Kang is a huge piece of trash.
But you don't deserve to stand on that stage either.
Today, I made up my mind...
to destroy both you...
and Professor Kang.
You're my first target.
Whom should I tell first?
Jang Yoon? Chairman Jang?
Or the police?
I wish you all the best today.
It's going to be your last performance.
Where on earth is he?
Maestro Nam!
I've been looking everywhere for you. Where have you been?
I'm sorry. Shall we get going?
Good luck. Break a leg.
- Yes. Did you find him? - He just went to the green room.
He's putting on his suit.
Unbelievable. He won't let me rest until the last moment.
Okay.
Good luck.
Are you all right?
