Hong. Yoo. Ra.
You're the Supreme Court judge's son.
Why are you looking for her?
Judge Hong Yoo Ra.
Because she's a witness to my hit-and-run accident.
- What? - A hit-and-run?
Witness? My sister?
I want to ask her what she witnessed.
Are you talking about the accident from ten years ago?
Instead of going to a juvenile reformatory,
you were tried as an adult immediately.
How do you know that?
I want to find the real culprit.
Let me meet your mom.
You said you'd help me.
I want to find out if your mom
framed me or will
vindicate me.
Let's talk in private.
I'm not sure.
Shall we?
What does this all mean?
What do you mean to talk in private?
Talk right here.
I called him in.
That's great.
Judges are supposed to save those who were wronged.
She can go ahead and
determine who's at fault.
Let's go out.
Where are you going? How do you know each other?
Tell me how you know each other before you go!
If it concerns my sister, it concerns me!
So annoying!
[ Episode 73 ] Judge Hong.
Finally, the real culprit of the Hamsung Elementary murder confessed.
- The real culprit? - Yes.
The real culprit confessed in the trial, determining the possibility of retrial.
Whoa. I had my doubts.
This is a real-life true crime show.
The falsely charged person who had to serve a 15-year sentence
must feel so wronged.
Charging a person wrongfully is much worse
than letting ten criminals slip away.
You've said that time and again, Judge Hong.
I feel bad that something like this happened again.
I'm sure it's less frequent than before,
but I bet there are still quite a few cases like that.
You're wronged, yet the law is not on your side and no one to appeal to.
That's why everyone wants someone like you as the Supreme Court judge.
People might not notice, but the entire judiciary branch will change.
I feel the same way.
Nowadays, people are afraid of hearings that they pass up high-ranking positions.
Judge Hong, no matter how thoroughly they shake you up,
you have nothing to worry about.
Plus, you've sponsored a few hundred kids so far.
- On top of that, your hero son... - Stop it.
Let's stop talking nonsense when
we have important sentencing ahead of us.
Where were we?
Oh, yes. Page 14...
You're the chairwoman's nephew,
and you're a team leader to this tiny office?
Let's sit.
Gosh...
What?
You won't even offer me some coffee?
The staff will be back soon.
So, let's get to the point.
Before that,
don't you think we see each other too often?
It can't be a coincidence at this frequency.
And it can't be fate.
Is it an unfortunate destiny?
Tell me about the
hit-and-run accident in detail.
In detail, my foot.
I don't know anything about that accident.
I was just going down the same street I go down every day.
Well, I did steal a car...
On that day of all days.
So...
what was the evidence that conclusively named you as the culprit?
A cigarette butt was discovered.
I don't even know when I threw it out.
If you combed through that road,
you'd find a pack of cigarette butts I threw out.
And they called that evidence...
Did you really not cause the accident?
If you felt so wronged,
why did you wait until now to bother people?
I met someone who believes me
and who listens to me for the first time.
What?
I was born unlucky,
and I thought I just drew another short straw.
But she said to stop letting others beat me down.
What do you mean she's a witness?
Why do you think that?
Thanks to Officer Kim,
I saw my sentencing documents for the first time.
There, I saw your mom's name.
But the statement was missing,
and the investigation records were destroyed.
So, the only option is to ask in person.
I'll ask her first what happened and contact you.
Please wait.
If you are really telling the truth,
I have no interest in running away.
What?
She framed him?
Do you know how she is?
She'd never frame anybody.
She's as straight edge as a knife. She must've seen something
to testify the way she did.
Wouldn't there be a reason for him to do this after serving his sentence?
Reason? What reason?
It's as clear as day.
He's trying to get money out of us.
How come you're...
siding with a piece of trash like him?
Do you feel for him since you're both orphans?
No.
He lives so recklessly without fear in the world.
What do mean do I feel for him?
Regardless of the truth,
I'm concerned that he'd talk to the press for money, so I'd like to prepare.
What?
The press?
Tell Director Cha to look into that punk's hit-and-run accident.
Yes.
Wait.
Where do you think you're sticking your dirty face?
Hong Yoo Ra.
She's your sister, right?
The Supreme Court judge.
Which is your sister's unit at Hana Village?
So, from the beginning, he knew we're sisters
when he made the scene?
This is not a quarrel. It's a threat.
Ma'am.
What brings you here, ma'am?
Are you having trouble remembering, ma'am?
I don't know.
I don't know anything.
- Dementia? - My So Young...
gave birth to my grandson a few days ago...
I don't know anything.
I can't remember.
I don't know...
why I'm like this.
Officer Kim.
Check her arm and neck.
There may be a bracelet with her personal information.
Wow, this pear looks delicious.
Were you going to give your daughter the pear and seaweed?
Yeah.
How come you're about to cry again?
Whoa. Your face is a block of ice.
Don't worry.
- We'll take you there, okay? - Okay.
Just a moment, ma'am.
You are Ms. Joo Young Ran.
And your daughter is Min So Young.
Right?
You came from Incheon?
You came such a long way.
Just a moment.
Have you eaten?
Are you warm enough?
It's okay. It's okay.
It's not just you, ma'am.
I forget things all the time, too.
Attempted suicide, accessory to suicide,
destruction of evidence, perjury...
You're not qualified to be a cop.
If you don't quit, I'll disqualify you.
From your contemptible police officer position.
Do you know why I came here?
To let the Station Captain know who you are.
You must've been cold. Scared, too.
I'm home.
Mom.
Are you out of your mind?
How could you be seeing her again?
How could you backstab me, too?
Did you continue to see each other behind my back this whole time?
What are you talking about?
I went to the station to see her and saw you two.
Why did you go to the station, Mom?
Is that important right now?
Yes. It's important.
Did you see Cheong Ah?
What did you say to her?
- What? - I never deceived you.
I may have fooled myself saying I can part ways with Cheong Ah.
I don't want you to misunderstand.
I'm the one unable to let go.
She doesn't want me, and I'm chasing after her day and night.
So, I'd like you to leave her alone.
What did you say?
I can't give her up.
And I don't think I should give up.
If you can't give up, then what?
Am I against it because she's not good enough? It's not like that.
I lost a son because of her.
Why is it Cheong Ah's fault that Joon Gyeom died?
- You alone think... - Stop!
It was so painful that
I even got rid of photographs of Joon Gyeom.
And you want me to keep looking at her face?
How could you do this to me?
Just say you want to be single forever like before.
You said you're so annoyed by dating and women.
You're fine living alone. You said you wouldn't get married.
Are you the only one in pain, Mom?
I'm in pain, too.
Until when will you be like this?
How could I go back to how I was, just because you say so?
Removing photos and not seeing Cheong Ah can make the pain go away?
You may be able to, Mom,
but I can't anymore.
I'm not giving up on Cheong Ah, even if you're against it.
I can't leave her alone again.
Any other girl in the world, but her.
Not in our house.
Do I have to lose you, too?
Having one son die on his own accord is enough.
I won't leave.
No matter what happened before,
and no matter what'll happen in the future,
I'm not leaving you, Mom.
By the way, Mom...
you really don't know anything?
Why Joon Gyeom had to die alone like that.
What?
Is there something you haven't told me?
What do you mean by that?
You know there can't be anything like that.
Kang Shi Wol.
He says you're the initial informant for
the hit-and-run he committed.
Is that correct?
He wants to meet you.
He wants to know if you framed him
or if you're someone who'll vindicate him.
He went so far as to go see you?
What?
Went so far?
When you rushed in the house in fear a few days ago,
was it because of Kang Shi Wol? Was it?
What are you so anxious about?
Who is it? What is it?
What is the matter?
Unni! I'm here.
Your aunt is here.
I'll go out.
What's the nature of your relationship to that worm?
He keeps throwing your name around.
It makes my skin crawl.
Are you really...
the initial informant of his hit-and-run accident?
Yeah.
That's correct.
And you've been sponsoring him this whole time?
For ten years?
Why?
He was only a kid sentenced to a hefty penalty,
so I felt for him and sponsored him.
He didn't have any family.
And he's the same age as my Joon Gyeom.
Gosh.
We've got a saint here.
Why did you have to sponsor an ingrate like that
and cause a mess like this?
Look.
The moment he found out who his sponsor was
he's leeching on to extort money.
It's not like that.
What do you mean it's not like that?
Wait and see.
He'll hold his hand out to you in no time.
It's not my first time dealing with
punks like this.
Gosh. To me, it looks like
he's coming at you thinking he can call the shots,
since you're up for the Supreme Court judge position.
Let me take care of him.
We can't let scum get on the hands of a Supreme Court judge candidate.
I'll take care of him,
whether it takes money or a scare.
Leave it.
I plan on meeting with him.
I'll meet with him and hear what his intentions are.
I beg of you.
Please stay out of this.
Why in the world would you meet with him?
Gosh...
So frustrating.
You're so naive.
You'll learn how scary people can be once you suffer through it.
Gosh, really...
Gosh.
Wandering the streets for days in the cold
with pear and seaweed in hand
for her daughter, who just gave birth...
Dementia is scary.
I learned for the first time today how sad
it is to lose your memory.
I've been trying to forget it every day.
No matter how tough it was,
it's better when you can still remember it.
Rather than losing grasp of it all like the old lady.
I've had...
many tough times I wanted to forget,
but after time passed,
it all became a part of my life.
So, Officer Kim,
you don't have to try so hard to forget.
I wasn't trying to listen,
but I heard by chance.
I'm sorry that I couldn't tell you about it in advance.
It's not easy to bring those things up.
Was it when you got bullied?
Yes.
I wasn't able to save someone back then.
Because of that guilt, I became a police officer to save people.
But I don't know if this is the right choice.
From my perspective,
you're as qualified as they come.
You don't spare yourself when it comes to saving people.
Look at what you did earlier.
You took care of the old lady with all your heart.
But what if I cause problems for the station?
I'll find out whether that incident is cause
for disciplinary action.
Let's figure it out, so that it doesn't become an issue, okay?
Thank you, Captain.
Officer Lee.
You've heard about Officer Kim, right?
Officer Kim quit school because she was bullied.
Apparently, she even attempted suicide back then.
Apparently.
Gosh. That ahjumma was a force of nature.
Aigoo. She talked so scarily.
It made my hair stand on end.
As that ahjumma said,
do you think Officer Kim destroyed evidence and committed perjury?
We can't possibly know.
I didn't see Officer Kim that way.
You never know people from the outside.
Anyway, she was about to get her fired right there and then.
They'll hold a disciplinary committee or something.
Geez.
What a mess.
- Let's go. Time to change shifts. - Oh, yes.
Do you want to know a secret?
They may look like separate islands,
but all humans are connected.
My split-second decision
can cause someone despair or hope.
It could ruin someone's life, too.
Including their family.
Aigoo. Good work.
Thank you.
What brings you here this time?
You said the police are the citizen,
and the citizen is the police.
Hey.
Stop talking down to our captain.
Geez. It's up to me.
You may be a cop, but you shouldn't interfere on that level.
Leave, then. You're not even here on official business.
I am here on official business.
Then you better mind your manners.
Wow. Are cops allowed to be like this?
What official business are you here for?
Well...
you said you'll look into my case.
"The warm and trusty Seoul police are on the citizen's side."
What happened to that?
- Sir! - To that?
Geez...
Geez?
You make it sound like I owe you one.
Since you say you're here on official business, let's go inside.
Could we...
go somewhere and talk over soju?
I'm on the night shift today.
When did it change?
You know Officer Kim's work schedule in and out?
What in the world?
No alcohol, but I'll treat you.
Let's go inside.
Come inside.
I'm coming.
No need to get pissy.
So, you're saying...
there were no CCTVs at the location of the accident,
and the only evidence was a cigarette butt at the site?
That's what I said.
I think I need to see Hong Yoo Ra's statement
to know why I was named the culprit.
Captain.
What if we find the attorney from then
but still don't have the paperwork?
Well, it's a ten-year-old case, so it won't be easy.
Don't keep your hopes up.
Retrial in and of itself is not easy.
I know.
Old people always start by worrying.
My priest does that, too.
What? Old people?
I looked into it.
For the Lee Young Joo parricide case,
it took three years and nine months until the trial to decide on a retrial.
For the Namchon Three-Way Intersection case,
it took two years and nine months.
I'm bracing myself.
The two of you, keep at your duties as cops,
and help me out, okay?
When did you look into all this?
Do you think I was lazing around while you were
looking for the attorney?
This is my case, after all.
Plus...
I need to work hard and find my little sister.
Little sister?
He has a twin sister he parted from when he was little.
He wants to meet her once his name is cleared.
A twin?
Why?
Is it hilarious for a punk like me to look for his twin sister?
Even a cop looks at me with prejudice...
Geez.
Why?
You've been talking down to Captain ever since we came in here.
No, it's...
- One step behind, are you? - Never mind that.
This is my final warning. Got it?
- D***, really... - D***?
Gosh, I can't believe him.
[ Statement ]
[ Paju Four-way Intersection Car Accident Evidence Photos ]
He says you're the initial informant for
the hit-and-run he committed.
Is that correct?
Let's start with your ID.
My driver's license is in the car.
I just have this with me right now.
You are a government official at the court?
I am Judge Hong Yoo Ra of Seoul District Court.
Pardon?
You're a judge?
As you know, I'm sure,
this is a mandatory procedure.
Sorry to inconvenience you, but please give a statement.
Since you're the initial informant.
Of course.
I'm so shocked right now that I'm beside myself.
I was driving by, and I got a strange feeling,
so I went back to check,
and saw an old lady lying on the street.
Oh, I just received word from the hospital
that the old lady is alive.
- She is? - Yes.
Though she's not yet conscious.
You did a great thing.
Thank God, really.
What do you think you're doing?
Bowing down in front of me and making moves behind my back.
You say you apologize,
yet see my son behind my back?
What?
You're working so hard to atone?
Is this atonement?
Pick up.
[ Me ]
The customer is not answering the phone...
I'm so worried...
I'm so worried, and I'm going crazy.
I know you're not okay.
Let me see your not-okay face, Cheong Ah.
Gosh. At least stay in the car.
What if he catches a cold or something?
The customer is not answering the phone.
You'll be connected to the voicemail.
"I don't know what will be around the corner,
but...
I want to believe that the best awaits,"
ponders my Cheong Ah.
I, too, think that now.
Were you hiding?
To avoid me?
Why are you doing this?
If you act like this, I have to hide even more.
I can't even go home because of you, Koo Joon Hwi?
How come you're dressed so light?
Your face is all frozen.
Take a cab if you can.
Don't be like this.
Please stop calling me and coming to see me.
I know that my mom went to see you.
What did she say?
Tell me every single word she said.
Who would you tell if you don't tell me?
I'm sure you can't tell your mother.
Or your sister,
or your father. You can't show that you're suffering.
So let it out with me.
Get angry at me, get frustrated at me.
Scream at me about how unfair it is.
I'll take it.
I'll take it all, so don't hold back, Kim Cheong Ah.
It's hard.
It's so hard.
It's hard to breathe,
it's hard to sleep, and it's hard to eat.
The hardest thing is seeing you, Joon Hwi.
So, please...
Please don't show up in front of me.
Forget.
Let's forget.
I'd like for you to forget.
You know it's impossible.
We don't have a future or present together.
What's left between the two of us?
Only the past. Which cannot be undone.
You forget, then.
If that's possible for you.
But...
I can't forget you.
It's impossible for me.
More impossible than the past that cannot be undone.
I've always been a selfish bastard.
So, my happiness is more important.
I want to become happy,
and I need you for that.
I can't watch you suffer
and be miserable any longer.
♫ I tear up every time I walk these streets ♫
♫ I keep being reminded of his touch ♫
All right. Cry.
Cry all you want.
Once you're done crying,
let's go inside and laugh without thinking about anything.
♫ Love, why are you running away ♫
My Cheong Ah said this.
"Beds are not just a place for sleeping."
"It's also a place for dreaming."
♫ Longing chases after love ♫
Sweet dreams, Cheong Ah.
♫ It would be nice if it stayed a while to rest ♫
[ Episode 74 ]
Gosh.
Aigoo.
Team Leader Koo.
He's no man's man,
but he sure has stamina.
When I saw him that night,
I think he meant it when he said he'd protect Cheong Ah.
It's not Cheong Ah's fault.
My brother made his choice.
And once she understands why he made such a choice,
my mother will be able to accept Cheong Ah.
I'll make sure that happens.
Aigoo. Where is my head...
We have to pick out outfits.
Honey, what should I wear?
There's no need for you to come.
What are you talking about?
It's an outstanding employee award for ten years of continuous work.
Cheong Ah and Seol Ah can't make it because of work,
so I should go, at least.
I already got the day off.
Gosh, really.
You barely started your job and taking time off already?
What are you talking about?
You have a husband and kids.
You're supposed to have a family at functions like that.
It'll make you feel more confident.
Let's see. Aigoo.
What should I wear?
Mom, just a moment.
Why?
What's going on?
I just spoke with the lawyer on the phone.
Oh, really?
What did they say?
Even if Cheong Ah aided and abetted suicide,
the statute of limitations has run out.
That means she can't hold her legally accountable.
Is that right?
Plus, as you said, when Joon Gyeom jumped into the river,
if Cheong Ah was at the villa,
an aiding and abetting charge may not even hold up.
Of course, they might argue that Cheong Ah jumped in too,
then changed her mind and survived by herself.
Then, we must prove that's not the case.
How...
How can we prove that? There is no witness.
That would be the worst-case scenario.
Even if the statute of limitations ran out,
Cheong Ah is a police officer now.
Once the world finds out about this incident,
could she be at any disadvantage?
I'll look into that a little more.
Gosh, that's that, but...
Yes, Mom?
Team Leader Koo came by a couple of days ago.
came by yesterday.
Joon Hwi?
Why?
He asked me to believe in him.
He says he'll convince his mom.
On the one hand, I'm thankful,
but I can't rest easy.
What about Cheong Ah?
What does Cheong Ah say?
She won't say anything.
When she left the house yesterday,
she looked a little more at ease.
But when she came home at night,
her eyes were all swollen.
She won't answer any of my questions.
Gosh...
If she were transferred to somewhere remote
and not have to face Team Leader Koo and Joon Gyeom's mom,
I bet she'd be more comfortable.
Come in.
You're already heading out?
Yeah.
Cheong Ah.
Huh?
Unni.
At times like this, I wish I had something perfectly awesome to say.
Cheer up,
and keep your head up.
That's all I can think to say.
I'm okay, Unni.
And I'll cheer up...
and keep my head up.
Let's live well.
I'm sure it'll all pass at some point.
Yeah.
I wish you were a little selfish.
If you took after
half of me, no more.
Sorry.
I stalled you on your way out.
Thank you, Unni.
I'll be back.
I want to become happy,
and I need you for that.
I can't watch you suffer
and be miserable any longer.

Are there smells or flavors that make you reminisce, Chef Moon Tae Rang?
I'm drawn to sounds more than to
smells or flavors.
Sounds?
Yes.
Every food makes
a unique sound when being cooked,
and each sound harbors a memory.
It reminds of the person I was cooking with,
and it reminds me of the person who ate the food with gusto.
It reminds me of those things.

"The two of you have fantastic chemistry.
Please stay together for a long time."
The responses are spectacular.
And the listener ratings are through the roof.

You'll have to become a regular daily host.
- Pardon? - I'm kidding.
Well, I'm only half kidding.
Why don't you give it a thought?

it wouldn't be a bad idea to lengthen his airtime.

Thank you for your work.
Thank you.
Oh, right.
Chef Moon.
You know Announcer Song Yae Won, right?
She hosts the morning news and the movie program.
Oh, yes.
Why do you ask?
She's my hoobae from school.
She's been pestering me to introduce her to you.
Would you like to meet her?
Sure, why not.
She would've gone home already,
but she said she'll wait, on the off chance.
If it's all right, would you like to meet her now?
All right.
I asked you to lunch together a while ago. And you're here now?
I have a prior engagement for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
What?
I'm chasing Cheong Ah
day and night, though she doesn't want me.
Why?
I know full well. I've been there.
Tough, huh?
Have you ever sprinkled calcium chloride in an alleyway?
Chasing after your sister-in-law,
I even wore a fake cast on my foot.
So, why did you want to see me?
Your aunt is going to hold a special shareholder's meeting.
The item on the agenda
is the dismissal of the Vice-chairman.
Really?
- On what grounds? - I don't know.
There's quite a lot.
Preferential treatment, qualification, management capacity...
However, as you can guess,
the real reason is...
- your sister-in-law. - No way.
Yes way.
The point is...
my livelihood depends on the largest shareholder's intent.
Wow, look at you.
Are you debating right now?
Am I right?
Hyung.
How do you feel when Auntie causes a ridiculous hitch like that?
What's up with the random question?
How far am I supposed to excuse my mom?
What do you mean? You excuse her because she's your mom.
Aigoo...
I'm holding back because she's my mom.
You have Auntie for your mom. What's your worry?
My mom ratted me out to my father-in-law about the affair.
Hey, hey.
This isn't time to talk about our moms.
If you don't take my side, I'm about to get fired as the vice-chairman.
Instead...
why not entrust the company to a management specialist?
Hey, Koo Joon Hwi.
Hereditary management, family-run nepotism...
We should break free from that at some point.
I asked you whose side you'll take, and you steer the conversation that direction?
I'll think about it, Hyung.
I have to go. I have a meeting.
Huh?
I really enjoyed listening to your radio show.
You look so much more handsome in person.
Oh, thank you.
I'm also enjoying watching your show.
Oh...
I usually don't ask people out first.
- Don't get me wrong. - Oh, yes.

You know Announcer Kim Seol Ah, right?
Yes, of course.
Hello, I'm Song Yae Won.
Hello.
We'll let the two of you talk.
If I knew that I'd meet you out of the blue,
I would've put on some makeup.
I didn't have high expectations.
You look more beautiful than on the screen, even without makeup.
Thank you.
Didn't you say Announcer Song has a boyfriend?
I'm not sure.
Gosh. If she had a boyfriend,
would she have asked to meet him?
I thought I saw an article about a scandal recently...
That was a false report.
Fake news that pops up all the time.
But isn't there a big age gap between them?
Announcer Kim.
Which one do you dislike?
Announcer Song?
Or Chef Moon?
Wow. I was so shocked.
They call it "Outstanding Employee,"
but I thought they give it out to everybody.
Hey!
Who do you think your mom is?
Look at her today.
It was a select few.
They only gave it to truly outstanding employees.
That's what I'm saying.
You were so awesome, Mom.
You were the prettiest, and you shined so brightly.
Aigoo, why are you flattering me so much?
I feel dizzy. Stop it.
Honey.
You worked so hard. I should be the one
giving you an award.
You work hard, too.
Compared to you, it's nothing.
Gosh, what is this? So cringey.
Let's take a celebratory photo.
You took so many already. We're good.
Those were official photos.
You need one with Dad, too.
All right. Stand side by side.
Let me take an awesome photo.
Yes.
Come here.
Let's get a photo together for the first time in forever.
Gosh. What's this? Smile.
One more.
You won't be wearing the coat, will you?
Of course.
You can't see a silhouette through a coat.
You just look bloated.
Between the tweed jacket and the tailored jacket,
which one would you like to wear?
I think this sophisticated and elegant
tweed jacket suits you better.
Okay. I'll go with that.
I think I'll look thinner in photos in this one.
Going to a fashion show or something?
Why are you dressed so flashy going to a funeral?
We have to leave now.
Wrap things up.
Don't you know...
how important public image is to a wealthy elite Chairwoman?
I'm not ready yet, so wait a bit.
I heard Ms. Moon's brother is doing a show with Kim Seol Ah.
Yes, I've heard.
They're on once a week.
I heard they have great chemistry.
Like a match made in heaven.
I'll head out first. Make sure you're not late.
What do you think?
Has he been sorry toward you ever since he acted that way?
I'm not sure.
He seems even angrier...
Why?
How could he be angrier?
On such a cold day,
you escorted his drunken self home.
[ Jin Woo ]
Gosh...
Do I have a cold?
How come I'm getting the chills?
The customer is not answering the phone.
After the beep...
Geez.
It was fine, and now it's broken all of a sudden.
Gosh, really.
Dad.
Gosh.
You came downstairs because you're cold.
Did the heater break down?
It's completely busted.
Dad. It's so cold.
You weren't able to make it work?
We better call someone tomorrow morning.
How are we supposed to wait until tomorrow morning?
They better not catch a cold...
All right, why don't we all go to the spa?
Shall we?
Do you want to go to the spa?
Spa in the middle of the night?
Just wait.
Let me go to the storage and look for a space heater.
Gosh...
How can we sleep in this cold with a single space heater?
Are you guys cold?
Go upstairs and go under your covers.
Okay.
Jin Woo.
What's up?
Yeon Ah.
I would really like to speak to your sister,
but she's not picking up.
Our heater is broken right now,
so the whole family is shivering.
I bet she's not in the right mind to pick up the phone.
And Dad won't let us go to the spa.
We may have to get through the night with a rickety space heater.
Space heater?
I got it, Yeon Ah.
Let's hang up, and I'll call back later.
Gosh. This won't work.
We haven't used this in ten years.
No wonder it's not turning on.
Hey. This is too much.
Go the spa already, the two of you.
Mom and Dad, you come, too.
How can you sleep in this cold?
Where's Yeon Ah, by the way?
Yeon Ah!
Hurry, come in.
I'm here, Father.
Oh, what brings you here at this hour?
I'll explain in a bit.
Mr. Choi, please put them in every room.
- Yeon Ah, help out a little. - Okay.
Come this way.
Aigoo...
Wait...
I'd loved to escort you to a hotel, but you wouldn't go.
For now, I prepared these in a hurry.
How did you know to come?
You weren't picking up the phone, so I was talking to Yeon Ah...
Still, showing up without any notice like this is...
Mom. It's so warm.
Thank you, Jin Woo.
Please come this way.
I'm sorry.
I figured you'd feel uncomfortable if I asked you first.
I'll leave as soon as we install them.
All right.
Thanks, I guess.
Unnis!
You bring the heaters upstairs!
It's just warm enough now.
Lie down.
After you leave.
I needed to say something to you, anything.
But you won't pick up.
So, I'm here out of necessity.
What do you want to say to me?
"My heart I wrote to you has
already become my whole life.
Finally, my life has
become weathered by Kim Seol Ah."
♫ I'm closing my eyes and drawing you out ♫
I won't give any excuses.
It's true that I repeated the same mistake.
But what I said to you on the phone for 40 minutes
is all true.
♫ A fate-like love... ♫
Like you said, maybe
I'm unable to give up on someone who has no feelings for me,
♫ It's a love I can't figure out ♫
I think that's love, too.
How could that be love?
Clinging onto someone who has no feelings for you.
That's an obsession.
♫ So I'll slowly go to you, step by step ♫
I'm leaving.
If I stay any longer, I'll get in trouble with Father.
When you sleep, turn it to sleep mode.
Otherwise, you might get burned.
Thanks, anyway.
♫ So your scent can linger on my dried out heart ♫
♫ I hope you're the one within me ♫
It looks like this building.
Aren't you hungry?
I'm okay.
I thought you didn't even have breakfast.
It's here.
[ Attorney Jang Yoo Jin ]
Did something happen?
No.
All right.
Let's check out this one place and eat.
If it's too much for you, let's call it a day.
I'm okay, so don't worry.
Hey, Officer Kim!
Is this your case?
How come you're working harder than me?
Excuse me.
Are you Attorney Jang Yoo Jin?
Oh, thank you.
Excuse me.
Who...
Is this him?
It is.
It's that bastard.
Hey.
You remember me, don't you?
You're the SOB that represented me then, right?
Who are you? Talking down to me out of the blue?
You don't remember me?
It's me.
Kang Shi Wol.
I'm Kang Shi Wol!
I don't remember very well.
And you call yourself a lawyer...
"Please save me, Mr. Lawyer.
I didn't do it."
I begged you down on my knees.
You showed up grudgingly and stared at your watch.
I begged you desperately.
You're one of many.
"Do you want to be a murderer?"
You scared me.
I did?
No way.
No way?
Gosh...
Hey.
You ruined my life, and you play innocent?
Kang Shi Wol!
- Let go and talk. - Let go of me.
I'm a lawyer.
If you don't let go, I'll sue you.
You want to go to jail again?
Let go and talk, please!
Kang Shi Wol was 18 back then.
Don't you remember?
Please, think hard.
It's rare for a youth offender to go to prison.
Here. It's the sentencing document.
You'll remember when you see this.
Please read it carefully.
You said that if I plead guilty
before the old lady passed away,
my sentence would be minimized. Didn't you?
That could be,
or maybe not...
Do you have any paperwork related to the case?
Aigoo, no.
There are so many cases.
If I kept paperwork from all the cases I handled,
there's no place for me to sit here.
Still, please look into it carefully.
I beg of you.
This Hong Yoo Ra. Who is it?
Why did this person
submit a statement? What could she have seen?
I may not know, but you should know.
I'm not sure.
Is this Hong Yoo Ra
that Supreme Court judge Hong Yoo Ra?
Supreme Court judge?
Gosh, I would've remembered if it were her.
She's a famous person.
No, it's not her.
Watch what you're saying.
[ Yoo's BBQ Chicken ]
Do you like spicy food?
No. Make it sweet.
- Excuse me. - Yes.
- We'll do half and half. - Yes.
If you're not going to college, what'll you do?
- Broadcasting. - What?
You don't seem like an actor...
Are you an idol?
What in the world? I'll do a one-man broadcast.
Oh, really?
I hear that's on the rise these days.
My sister's an announcer, too.
- Ask me anything. - Really?
Amazing. Announcer who?
Doesn't someone come to your mind when you see my face?
There is someone.
But they're not an announcer...
Hey.
True.
Even I don't think we look alike.
- Announcer Kim Seol Ah. - Whoa!
My brother's doing a show with Announcer Kim Seol Ah.
Who's your brother?
Chef Moon Tae Rang.
Whoa. Really?
The hot chef?
Come on. Let me see him in person.
Please?
Shall I?
Then, you call up your sister, too.
I'd love to meet a broadcasting veteran.
Okay. Deal.
Even if only one of them shows up, they'll pay for it.
Let's order more on top of BBQ chicken.
You...
know how to live life.
Of course.
Excuse me.
Can we add ttukboki and buckwheat noodles?
What a small world.
Right?
So, what's the nature of your relationship?
What do you mean?
I saw her when I was around his restaurant the other day.
My brother cut in line to grab a cab to send me away.
What are you talking about?
At the moment, we're co-workers.
At the moment?
What about before, then?
The one-man broadcast you mentioned.
I'll help in any way I can.
- Feel free to contact me. - Really?
Don't give him false hope.
Hey, Father hasn't given you permission yet.
Gosh, I'm so full.
Hey, Moon Pa Rang.
- Ready for round two? - You bet.
You called us over.
Where are you going?
There's too big of a generation gap for the karaoke.
Why don't we part ways here?
Mr. Chef.
It was such an honor to meet you again like this.
I'll visit Sohwakhaeng next time.
Fix me up a delicious meal.
It was an honor for me as well.
I'll definitely contact you with any questions I have.
Let's go.
How was your blind date?
Yeah.
You were smiling quite a bit.
Talking to her, she seems to have a nice personality.
It's always like that in the beginning.
If you like her, try seeing her.
I was thinking about it.
Why?
You know something?
Out of sight, out of mind.
Yeah.
So, I feel like you're in Daejeon
no...
in Jeju Island.
Yeah?
I put you in Pia Valley in Jiri Mountain.
You put me away so deep.
Yeah.
If we grow apart even more,
I'll send you off into space.
See you at the next show.
I'm leaving.
[ Supreme Court ]
Who met with whom?
Kang Shi Wol, that jerk,
met with a lawyer named Jang Yoo Jin.
The weird thing is
Kim Cheong Ah accompanied him the whole time.
What's up with that Kim Cheong Ah?
Why is she hanging around that worm?
She got to know him through a car accident.
Cheong Ah heard his story and wanted to help.
She mentioned it to me before.
Gosh. But still, she's going out of her way to help?
When it's not even her problem?
Wait.
Is she involved in some way with the hit-and-run...
- Hwa Young. - Unni.
You said the hit-and-run happened ten years ago, right?
Isn't that when Joon Gyeom died?
What are you saying?
Why bring up Joon Gyeom out of the blue?
It's just that...
when I hear Kim Cheong Ah,
I immediately think of Joon Gyeom.
Right,
there can't be a connection between
Joon Gyeom and that worm.
I have to work.
Please leave now.
Unni.
Are you hiding something from me?
Stop it already.
There is no way...
since you're the same inside and out.
But on the off chance that you have skeletons in the closet, tell me.
I'm all you have to bare your soul to.
You're on the verge of becoming a Supreme Court judge.
A single blemish will prevent you from getting there.
I can sense that there is something there when I see you.
Regarding that worm.
If you feel so uneasy about it,
I'll take care of it once and for all.
That lawyer, Kim Cheong Ah,
and that worm. All of them.
Kang Shi Wol.
Supreme Court judge Hong Yoo Ra.
Right?
Yes.
I'm Hong Yoo Ra.
How did you know I live here?
I already asked your son to connect me with you.
You came on your own two feet.
Why?
Are you here as a sponsor or as a witness?
I'm here to vindicate you.
What?
I'll help you.
To get a retrial.
Are you serious?
Let's investigate together and find the real culprit.
I can help you
better than others can.
Let's talk.
Would I be able to go inside?
♫ That's why, we've become a mess of scars ♫
♫ Because you're in my eyes ♫
♫ My heart hurts even more ♫
♫ That's why it hurts so much ♫
[ Beautiful Love, Wonderful Life ]
You've been working so hard.
- You, too. - Officer Kim Cheong Ah.
♫ I'll be on your side ♫
They'll be holding a disciplinary committee.
Your sister's living a great life.
How come my sister...
I'm suffering as much as you.
What can I do other than avoid you?
Did Mom call you over?
We'll request a retrial for Shi Wol's case.
What is it that you really want to know?
The truth about that day.
