The Penthouse: War in Life (2020) s01e06 Episode Script
Episode 6
1
That night, she was with me
at Hera Palace.
You can check the CCTV footage.
Let's stop the witch-hunting.
What good will it do
to the school
to frame an innocent person
as an assailant?
Min Seol Ah's death ended
as a suicide case.
Must we all create another victim?
Why did Dr. Ha have to suddenly
ruin everything?
I really can't understand him.
I totally understand why.
Then won't our kids be punished?
We'll have to minimize
the damage somehow.
Are you all right?
Yes.
I believe you.
That you meant well.
Stay strong for your daughter.
Ro Na.
You must protect her.
I will.
Thank you.
Cho Sang Heon works for the people,
and I will protect you.
I've opened an account
to accept donations.
Happy Future Party
Congressman Cho Sang Heon.
What a scumbag.
(Happy Future Party
Congressman Cho Sang Heon)
I can't leave for lunch until
after the meeting. Do you mind?
Not at all.
I'm feeling excited, thinking about
going on a date with you.
Don't mind me and finish your work.
Okay. Wait a while for me.
(CEO Joo Dan Tae)
What are you doing?
Please leave
or I'll call the chairman.
Help me. Help me one more time.
Cho Sang Heon knows that
Seol Ah's my daughter.
He's blackmailing me.
I must find something
on Cho Sang Heon.
My husband must know something.
I must find out
what Cho Sang Heon did to Seol Ah.
Please help me one more time.
The chairman ordered me
to keep tabs on Cho Sang Heon.
He's such a snake.
(Personal Details of
Hope Orphans Adopted Abroad)
(Personal Details of
Hope Orphans Adopted Abroad)
He's so evil.
Use this against him first.
(Newsroom Chief)
Gather round immediately. Come here.
It's Cho Sang Heon.
- The congressman.
- Cho Sang Heon.
Cho Sang Heon.
This is just the beginning.
Last night, a media outlet
reported a scandal
between an actress
and two-term congressman
Cho Sang Heon.
The congressman's office stated
the rumor is groundless,
and insists they will
report and prosecute
anyone who spreads this further.
Reporter Song has the details.
This scandal is bound to affect
the upcoming election.
Oh Yoon Hee,
you did this, didn't you?
You should've kept quiet
if you took my money.
What are you talking about, sir?
You spread the rumor,
so don't act like you don't know.
Come to my house and return
every single penny I gave you.
If you don't, I'll make sure
to ruin your daughter's life.
Hello? Hello?
Hello? Sir?
The foolish witch.
How dare she stab me in the back?
My goodness.
I will not go down on my own.
Not after what I did to get here.
(Oh Yoon Hee's Family Record)
(Oh Yoon Hee's Activities)
(Oh Yoon Hee's Activities)
What took you so long?
I will kill you.
How did you find this place?
You must've been in a great hurry.
Can I come in?
Are you here to negotiate?
Too bad. I'm a bit busy.
I'll contact you in secret,
without your husband's knowledge.
Let's talk now.
I said I'll call you!
Did you like my present?
- What?
- It was on the news
all evening today.
How does it feel to receive
everyone's attention?
Was it you who tipped off the media?
How about we begin
the negotiation?
(Personal Details of
Hope Orphans Adopted Abroad)
What's this?
You must remember
the kids you sent abroad yourself.
The terrible crimes you committed.
Why is this a crime?
I got them sent to rich families
where they could enjoy luxuries
they could only dream of.
How dare you do business
with those poor kids?
You're no human being.
What nonsense are you on about?
Every adoption in this file
ended up getting canceled.
Just like my Seol Ah.
Where are we going, Dad?
To see your older brother.
My older brother?
Yes. Your brother is sick.
So we need your help, Anna.
Can you do that for us?
That was the first time
I heard that
I had a sick older brother.
- I'm innocent! I didn't steal!
- Shut up!
Come on.
Dad! Will you tell them?
All the kids
were sent away right after
the bone marrow transplants.
They were deported.
Did you send the poor kids abroad
to use them to make money?
When they were of no more use,
you framed and dumped them?
Listen. I know nothing about that.
How would I know what
the adoptive parents did to them?
All this was planned
when you sent them abroad.
That's how you built your building
worth tens of millions of dollars.
Can you prove that?
Must there be proof
to be guilty of sin?
Proof of your communication
with Doctor Min.
I'm well aware
of the fact that he was
laundering your money.
You did a lot of detective work.
Are you that desperate
not to get divorced?
But guess what?
You're the reason
the kid ended up like that.
You killed her
because you abandoned her.
What do you know to say that?
Beg for forgiveness
and pay the price
for the despicable things you did.
I will expose
everything you did to Seol Ah.
I've been in politics for years.
Do you think
I don't have a lifeline?
One of them is
your husband Joo Dan Tae.
If you're curious,
shall I call and ask him?
Let go of me. Let go.
Let go!
Why you
Get up.
I will kill you.
Sir, I'm here.
Sir, it's me, Oh Yoon Hee.
Are you inside?
Sir, I'm going in.
Congressman Cho, aren't you home?
Sir?
(Oh Yoon Hee's Family)
Why are photos of Ro Na
(Oh Yoon Hee's Family)
Come to my house and return
every single penny I gave you.
If you don't, I'll make sure
to ruin your daughter's life.
(Husband)
I know her.
You get out of here.
I'll deal with the rest.
A man is dead.
Trust me and leave.
Go now. Get out of here.
Leave now.
(Su Ryeon)
The person you have reached is
Where on earth is she?
I I didn't see anything.
I don't know anything.
I didn't see anything.
Are you sure it's sorted out?
The school's reputation
almost fell to the ground.
A group-lynching?
That happens to involve
my own granddaughter?
You know what the school stands for.
It's the greatest private school
with a 50-year tradition.
I'm sorry, Father.
This will never happen again.
Why did Eun Byeol do such a thing?
As if she had no role model.
That's enough, Mom.
Dad? My husband
arranged this dinner
to try and lift your spirits.
Yes. Your new resort
is receiving rave reviews.
Yes. Last month, we made
the highest profit yet again.
You're a good businessman
and you got that from your parents.
This is why one's family background
is important.
I'd like to be excused.
I must return to the clinic.
- Sit.
- Enjoy the rest of the meal.
I said sit.
Dinner isn't over yet.
What did I say?
I said Yoon Chul wouldn't like
a full-course meal like this.
Seo Jin, is something wrong?
Did you two fight?
I heard your parents'
vineyard is struggling.
Do you need money?
- Is that what this is about?
- Father.
My gosh. You have less guts than
a chick learning to swim.
I apologize for being
the man that I am.
Excuse me.
If you continue
to disappointment me,
I'll put Seo Young in charge of
Cheong Ah Foundation.
What do you mean?
Why would Seo Young
No. I will inherit the foundation
in due time.
I'll sort everything out properly.
Expanding the foundation
might be easier with
the support of Seo Young's in-laws.
If you'll give me a chance,
I'm sure I can do great, Father.
Don't get too greedy. It's mine.
Why did you marry such a fool?
Your father
never lets anything slide.
"Your father"?
Yes, your posh father and mother.
How do they never fail
to show that
they hate their eldest
daughter's husband?
What are you so unhappy about?
I put nice clothes on your back.
Can't you at least try to keep up?
What didn't I do to try?
I did enough.
Why do they dislike me so much?
Is it because my parents
are poor and ignorant?
Or because they own a vineyard?
If they hated that so much,
they shouldn't have let us marry.
I wouldn't have married you
if I'd known they'd torture me so!
You must regret this so much.
I even know you gave Yoon Hee
100,000 dollars,
so are you brazen now that
there's nothing more to hide?
You're the one who ditched
the love of your life to come to me!
It was your decision!
Do you know
you're stooping lower and lower?
I hate everything about you,
but your feeling of inferiority
that's so deep within you
that you can't shrug it off
is the worst.
Hey.
Hey! Stop where you are!
Darn it.
Darn it all!
You're home.
- When did you get home?
- Not long ago.
You called, didn't you?
I fell asleep during my massage.
I'm sorry.
You must be very tired
to get a massage
at this time of day.
And to fall asleep too.
I haven't been sleeping well lately
and it's taken a toll on me.
Attorney Lee's in your study.
I prepared some wine
and a light snack.
Okay. Thank you.
Oh, gosh.
- I'll take that.
- Thank you.
I'll enjoy the snack.
I was surprised
when you called so suddenly.
What is it? Did the kids
get up to no good again?
No. Today,
I'd like to talk about business.
Bosuk Village's redevelopment plan
will be announced in three months.
We plan to construct
a second Hera Palace.
Wasn't Bosuk Village turned down
for redevelopment many times?
Because of
compensation negotiations.
I heard that Cheongryong Village
is a more likely candidate.
Seven Bosuk Village units
are currently up for sale.
If we gather some more,
it could be a maximum of 10 units.
We only need to invest 2 million
to make 8 million in a short term
through this lucrative deal.
That much?
But under who's name?
Of course,
we'll use a borrowed name.
I've already found someone as well.
Gosh, Chairman Joo. You really know
how to get things done.
You're like my mom.
But if it's Bosuk Village,
what about Min Seol Ah?
Didn't she use to live there?
Yes.
That's why I excluded Dr. Ha
from this project.
Since he made our kids
do volunteer work
for 20 hours due
to the Min Seol Ah incident,
he must pay for disappointing us.
Great decision.
"Let's stop the witch-hunting."
"What good will it do
to the school"
"to frame an innocent person
as an assailant?"
- My goodness, what was he thinking?
- I'll see you in the garden.
Even if Ms. Oh was his first love,
his wife was watching
right next to her.
I think his mean in-laws
have made him lose his mind.
Man, what a loser.
I'm not finished yet.
The house Min Seol Ah
used to live in is included as well.
What?
But why would you include a house
where someone died?
The tenant set the place on fire
and killed herself,
so the owner is selling it
at such a cheap price.
It's a great bargain, so
I'm thinking of buying it this week.
Yes!
It's a good thing for us.
We can erase Min Seol Ah
from our lives completely.
Okay, let's do it.
That girl is actually useful to us.
Joo Dan Tae.
You will never get what you want.
I'll never let that happen.
What is it?
Why are you so worked up?
Just don't say anything
and do as I want today.
Why did an attractive woman
like you
marry a guy like Ha Yoon Chul?
I coveted what I couldn't have
and mistook it as love.
I was too foolish and rash.
Come here.
From now on, there will be nothing
you can't have.
Congressman Cho Sang Heon,
who was caught up
in a scandal with Actress A
was found dead in his bathroom
at his villa.
The police stated Congressman Cho
may have gotten drunk
and slipped in his bathroom,
resulting in a cerebral hemorrhage.
No signs of homicide have been
discovered yet.
The NFS will carry out an autopsy
to find out the exact cause
of his death.
- The police also
- He was found in the bathroom?
Something's not right.
They will hold a briefing
as soon as the results come out.
Hello?
This is Songpa Police Station.
We're carrying out
witness interviews
regarding Congressman
Cho Sang Heon's death.
Can you come to the station?
The last person he talked to
on the phone was you.
You need to come over now.
Ms. Oh. Ms. Oh?
If you scream, I'll kill you.
Don't turn around.
Who are you?
Just answer my questions.
Why did you run away
from Cho Sang Heon's house?
That's me
I didn't kill him.
He was already dead
when I got there.
It's true, please believe me.
Why did you go there?
I was being threatened.
He thought I was the one
who revealed that scandal
with that actress.
So I went there to explain.
There was someone inside his house.
I heard a phone vibrating.
I also saw a woman's bag
on the couch.
It doesn't matter what you saw.
Go to the police station
and tell them you saw Cho Sang Heon
dead in the bathroom.
Other than that,
there is nothing you saw
or heard on that day.
Why should I lie like that?
If you want to save your
daughter's life as well as yours,
you'd better do as I say.
In return,
I'll give you
some important information.
You look beautiful,
my daughter.
(The late Min Seol Ah)
(The late Min Seol Ah)
(The late Min Seol Ah)
You're not alone anymore.
I'll always be with you.
My son is the best!
- Bye! I love you.
- Don't eat too many snacks.
You need to be on a diet.
I love you too!
Su Ryeon, I envy you.
Seok Hoon will be playing
a piano recital
and Seok Kyung will sing
for the admission ceremony.
I heard some amazing guests
will be coming this year.
- Ms. Cheon!
- Hello.
Ms. Cheon!
What was up with Dr. Ha?
How could he take her side?
He ruined everything.
I persuaded the director
and the kids were punished
as lightly as possible.
So let's just put it behind us.
They have to do 20 hours
of volunteer work.
How could Jenny do
such a lowly thing?
How many times have you
let us down like this?
Then let's set things straight now.
Make sure you don't get involved
with me anymore.
Well, fine. Let's do that.
Do you think I'll be afraid?
You're not the only
lesson teacher around.
Class is ready to begin, Ms. Cheon.
Is everyone seated?
Wait. What class?
What do you mean?
Ms. Cheon
is the new head of the
art department as of this semester.
- What?
- What?
I'm the head of the art department,
who will oversee
your admission ceremony.
As you know, there is no
top student this year,
so Joo Seok Kyung, who came in
second will hold a recital.
Please give her a hand.
The admission ceremony
is a very important event
which boasts its tradition.
Many famous musicians
will be invited as guests.
Not only Seok Kyung,
but all of you must practice hard.
The true face of
Congressman Cho Sang Heon,
who sponsored many orphanages
for years has been exposed,
shocking the public.
After the orphans were sent abroad,
Congressman Cho made them receive
bone-marrow transplants
and get deported,
making millions of dollars
in the process.
The police arrested Mr. Min,
the director of Hope Orphanage,
who colluded with Congressman Cho
to carry out the adoptions
and are currently carrying out
an investigation.
I'll give you
some important information.
Two days from now,
they'll release news about
Bosuk Village's redevelopment.
You need to buy Unit 3-501,
which is currently out for sale
by tomorrow.
(Bosuk Village
Redevelopment Proposal)

(Hera Palace)
Bosuk Village will be redeveloped?
("Congressman Cho Sang Heon Involved
in Illegal Organ Trafficking")
Make sure I'm not involved
in any of this.
Don't worry, sir.
Mr. Yoon.
Why didn't you answer the phone
last night?
Hye In's condition suddenly
worsened, so I didn't notice.
I'm sorry, sir.
You were at the hospital?
You have never disappointed me.
You bark when I tell you to
and bite when I want you to
like a loyal dog.
Am I right?
Has it already been 20 years since
you've worked for me?
I know how tough it is, Mr. Yoon.
You may leave.
Yoon Tae Ju.
Has my dog gotten too old now?
Your job is done now.
Good work,
Joo Hye In.
Honey. Hye In has

Patient Joo Hye In has
passed away
at 11:35 p.m. on December 17, 2019.
I'm sorry
I couldn't protect Hye In.
Hye In
(The late Joo Hye In)
It's time to say goodbye now.
You've been through so much.
I want to be alone.
Okay, I understand.
I'll be in the car with the kids.
Let's go.
(Hamin Hospital)
1, 2, shock!
Charge 250.
Charging 250.
1, 2, shock!
Her vitals have returned.
Hye In is in danger.
I'm afraid Chairman Joo
will try to kill her himself.
Kill Hye In
like my husband wants.
That's the only way
you and Hye In will live.
There's a drug that makes the heart
stop temporarily.
After the funeral, take Hye In
somewhere safe.
If you're even a second late,
she may not wake up.
Hello?
She has regained consciousness.
She was injected excessively
with a sleep inducer all this time,
so she'll need intensive care
for the time being.
Thank you so much.
I will never forget your kindness.
Thank you. Thank you so much.
(Dalhyun Real Estate Office)
What? Really? Unit 501 in Building 3
is on the market for sale?
It's been out in the market
at a really affordable price.
So lots of people have called
and asked me about it.
Did it not get sold yet?
But you know
what happened there, right?
There was an accident there.
- What accident?
- My gosh.
A young kid lived there by herself.
She set fire to the place
and committed suicide.
It was all over the news.
Are you saying that's where
But still, the owner agreed
to pay for the renovation.
So it'll be pretty much a new house.
It's facing south,
so it also gets a lot of sunlight.
No, it's okay.
Thank you.
I let her off the hook.
I could've hit her back, you know.
Then why didn't you?
This is making me so upset.
I had no other choice.
What if she asks us for
compensation again like last time?
We can't afford to move from here.
If you can't trust the information
that will totally change your life,
so be it.
The choice is yours.
(Bosuk Village
Redevelopment Proposal)
Fine. I'll just take
a leap of faith.
Who cares if someone died there?
She lived to the fullest.
What's wrong with that?
You couldn't prove your
income for the past three months,
and your payments were overdue
in the past,
so we can't grant you a loan.
I see.
Who will grant a loan
of 20,000 dollars
when the collateral
is just one small unit?
Who will grant a credit loan
when you're not even
a permanent employee?
We need to request experts
to appraise the building first,
so we can't grant you a loan today.
(OK Cash)
You must sign the contract
by midnight.
(Simple Loans,
low interest, guaranteed payment)
(Simple Loans,
low interest, guaranteed payment)
You must be in an awful hurry.
- How much?
- 20,000 dollars.
What about the collateral?
Can I set this house as mortgage?
Do you have the papers?
Here.
We have a high-interest rate.
Oh.
Can you handle it?
Yes.
Give me the loan.
Here. Sign this.
Right here?
(Body Abandonment Memorandum)
(Oh Yoon Hee)
Sir!
Sir. I'm in a hurry. Is anyone here?
Sir!
Sir!
Sir!
Gosh, what is all the fuss?
What brings you here so late?
(Oh Yoon Hee)
Oh Yoon Hee signed the contract
last night.
Good work.
I'll call you later.
You're already up?
You should sleep some more.
Are you feeling okay?
Yes. I feel much better now. Thanks.
By the way, did you go to
Congressman Cho's funeral?
Hardly anyone showed up.
Since he was caught up in an affair
and adoption scandal.
This is why you have to live
a clean life.
I'm off to the gym.
What about you?
What?
It's nothing. You must've changed
your perfume.
It smells nice.
What do you mean?
Someone bought that house?
I came first thing in the morning,
but someone bought that place
yesterday.
And do you want to know who it is?
Oh Yoon Hee?
She's
Gosh, can you believe this?
I doubt she knew about
the redevelopment.
I mean, no matter
how cheap of a person one could be,
wouldn't she feel guilty
to move into that place?
Her daughter got admitted
in Min Seol Ah's place,
and now, she's even taking her home?
That's just wrong.
I'll call you later.
The more I get to know her,
she's so unpredictable.
Oh Yoon Hee.
She keeps getting on my nerves
since last time.
Oh, gosh.
Darn it!
Why aren't there any articles?
This is driving me mad.
Wait. Maybe today's not the day
they announce it.
It is.
Let me see
If this goes wrong,
I'm all done for.
I'm here.
Hey, why are you munching on a snack
so early in the morning?
What was your name again?
- Sir, you have mail.
- Ms. Kim.
Your outfit looks nice and bright.
Is it summer or what? Who told you
to turn up the heat so much?
Are you just wasting all that money
since you're not paying for it?
What is all this stuff?
Why isn't there a name on this?
Wait, what is this?
My gosh.
What is this?
(I know what you did at this time.)
(I know what you did at this time.)
(Unidentified Number)
This crazy
(Cheong Ah Medical Center VIP Ward)
- Good morning.
- Good morning.
(Unidentified Number)
(I know what you did at this time.)
"I know what you did at this time"?
What will you do now?
Wait a minute, this punk even knows
where I work.
This is driving me nuts!
But that creepy eye right there.
I'm certain I saw it somewhere.
Where was it?
Why didn't you tell me
you lost that watch?
That's not important right now!
I'll be suspected right now!
- Chairman Joo.
- Let go of me.
Dr. Ha! Why couldn't you find it
in the flowerbed that night?
Are you blind or what?
Why are you getting angry at me
when you lost it?
Hey! If you had just looked
more properly!
Gosh, I really want to hit you
right now.
My goodness, how frustrating.
That sign that was hanging
above the fountain
and the recording file uploaded
on the school website.
Something's not right.
What if Min Seol Ah
really didn't kill herself?
What if one of us killed her?
That's why we're being
threatened like this.
To be honest,
the one who led this whole thing
was Chairman Joo.
You suggested first that
we should move the body
to Min Seol Ah's apartment.
Maybe you felt uneasy and wanted
to take care of it quickly.
So you dragged us into it
and even set Min Seol Ah's apartment
on fire.
You set her place on fire?
My goodness. Chairman Joo,
you're really terrifying.
Come to think of it,
didn't Seok Kyung
benefit the most from this?
She was second place
after Min Seol Ah,
so she even got to do
the solo recital.
This is exactly
what this person wants.
Doubting each other
and falling apart like this.
What's important is the fountain,
recording, and the pocket watch.
It means someone knows what we did.
Then it means there's a witness.
We must find who it is.
It's our priority to find
who's threatening us.
There's someone
I'm most suspicious of.
Who is it?
The person with the recording file,
the person who's not here right now,
and the person who wasn't there
on the night of the party.
Are you talking about Su Ryeon?
Why would Su Ryeon do that?
Her kids are involved in this too.
You're right.
Su Ryeon was the only one
who wasn't there.
And she acted all sensitive
whenever we mentioned Min Seol Ah.
Aren't I right?
She didn't come to the party
that night
and even left during
the lighting ceremony.
What if
Su Ryeon really saw us?
She said
she wasn't feeling well,
so she stayed
What is going on?
Your wife, Ms. Shim,
kept calling her too.
I'm feeling excited, thinking about
going on a date with you.
Don't mind me and finish your work.
Chairman Joo, where are you going?
What's going on?
Since when did you start
doing things behind my back?
You didn't know I had a CCTV
installed in my office?
I'm sorry, sir.
You're sorry?
Tell me what you're scheming
with my wife!
I saved you from the streets
and gave you a job.
Yet you betrayed me?
Tell me now.
What did you tell my wife?
You will never be able to get away
from me. Got it?
Thank you for taking care of me
all this time.
(End Call)
Secretary Cho. Get in here!
Bring Yoon Tae Ju to me
this instant.
Bring him to me, dead or alive.
Yes, sir.
Did you look into what I asked you?
This is your wife's phone records.
Is there anything unusual?
I searched the number
she called often lately,
and it was a detective agency.
"A detective agency"?
I mean, do we really have to go
this far?
We look so pathetic.
What are you talking about?
I'm sure she's up to something.
You should join us
since you're an attorney.
Hey, there she is.
We might lose her. Hurry!
Let's go. Fasten your seat belt.
(Aram Detective Agency)
Who are you?
Who are you?
What did she
ask you to find out?
I'll ask again.
Why did she come to see you?
I can't tell you that,
since it's confidential information.
Tell him before I break
your arms and legs.
Okay, I'll tell you.
I'll tell you everything,
so please don't hurt me.
How have you been?
I'm sorry for not visiting often.
I knew it!
What are you doing here?
How did you know I was here?
What on earth?
You even provided a charnel house
for Min Seol Ah?
Why are you so obsessed with her?
What's your relationship with her?
What are you talking about?
Are you the one
who threatened us all this time?
Are you the one who revealed
our kids' recording file?
I really trusted you.
How could you do this?
- How
- Calm down.
My goodness. You even stored
her ashes inside an urn.
Are you Min Seol Ah's mom or what?
Let me see.
This isn't Min Seol Ah.
Who is she?
She's my daughter.
What?
She died recently.
- Go say something.
- Oh
Well
- Watch out.
- Are you okay?
How could you blame her like that?
My goodness.
What?
What did you say?
An affair?
Yes. That woman in the photo
asked me to find out
about her husband's affair.
She thought her husband
was cheating on her.
I really can't disclose
personal information like this.
I'm telling you, that was it!
If this man comes here,
tell him I was suspecting that
my husband was cheating on me.
So? Did you find out anything?
No. I tried, but gave up.
He was a pretty thorough guy,
so I couldn't find anything unusual.
Chairman Joo is so horrible.
How could he hide his sick daughter
in the hospital all this time?
I know.
I can't imagine how hard
it must've been for you, Su Ryeon.
I'm about to tear up.
Then were you busy all this time
because of your daughter?
I'm sorry for not telling you.
You shouldn't be sorry.
The person who tried to keep it
a secret is the one to blame.
I heard Seol Ah committed suicide.
But my daughter was so sick
and I was too preoccupied.
It must've been so hard for you.
Think of me as your big sister now,
and rely on me from now on.
We've known each other for so long.
By any chance, was she a child
born from an affair?
If not, there would be no reason for
Chairman Joo to try to hide it.
- Don't you think?
- Ms. Cheon.
What are you talking about?
How could you be so harsh
when she lost her child?
Were you here?
Why didn't you answer my calls?
Let's go.
I'm sorry.
They followed me to the
charnel house, so I had no choice.
I wanted to keep it a secret
since she was already dead.
Don't be sorry, it's their fault.
You should take this opportunity
to become close with the ladies
of Hera Club.
I'm okay with it, so don't mind me.
Where are you?
I think my husband
caught onto something.
You need to leave immediately.
- Take the first flight
- I have
already packed up and
I'm on my way to the airport.
I'm glad. Remember to call me
when you arrive.
No, our deal ends here.
I will never call you now.
Take good care of yourself.
Thank you, Mr. Yoon.
Chairman Joo.
This is my final act of loyalty.
(2 months later)
What's this?
I found this cell phone
inside the air handling unit.
Oh, okay. Who is this?
She's not a resident here.
I'm sure she'll come back for it.
Seok Kyung, your cold
has gotten even worse.
Tomorrow is the admission ceremony,
but you're not in the condition
to perform solo.
You should go to the hospital.
I don't think Seok Kyung
will be able to do the performance.
I know you practiced really hard,
so I'm sorry it has to be this way.
It's an important performance,
and we can't ruin it because of you.
We need someone to replace
Seok Kyung's solo performance.
But we don't have much time.
Is there anyone who would like
to volunteer?
I'll give it a try.
Really? Are you confident?
Yes, let me give it a try.
Then let's have Eun Byeol
do the solo
I'd also like
to give it a try.
Ro Na, have you lost your mind?
You should know your place.
Really?
Then why don't we listen
to both of your performances
and choose the person
that does better?
Who wants to go first?
I enjoyed both your performances.
Now I'll decide.
This song
was better performed by Ro Na
in all aspects.
Ro Na, you can
perform solo tomorrow.
Thank you, Ms. Cheon.
I promise I'll do my best.
You need to do your best
for the admission ceremony.
Do you think you can do that?
Yes.
I'll look forward to it.
I borrowed it last minute.
But it looks great on you.
You look beautiful, Ro Na.
I can't believe
I'll be performing
at the admission ceremony
of Cheong Ah Arts High School.
Mom, I'm not dreaming, am I?
I heard a lot of famous businessmen
and women are going to be there.
I'm going to do really well
just like you, Mom.
The kids made fun of me
for being on the waiting list,
but I'll teach them a lesson.
You just wait.
You do that. I'm so proud of you.
I can't believe how happy I am
thanks to you.
Thank you.
But Mom, why do you look
so down these days?
Is something on your mind?
No, everything is fine.
- Let's go.
- Okay.
Are you ready? We're almost there.
Okay.

Hey, how did it go?
Okay.
Okay, good work.
Get ready, Eun Byeol.
This was supposed to be your stage.
Your grandfather is here.
You need to show him
that you're the future owner
of Cheong Ah Arts High School.
Ro Na! Ro Na, are you okay?
Ro Na! Look at me!
Let's Let's go to a hospital.
Mom, I'm okay.
I need to perform.
Ro Na, you're badly injured.
You need to go to a hospital.
I'm telling you I'm fine!
Hurry! I need to go to school!
I can't be late! Mom, please hurry!
What am I going to do?
Ro Na, hold on tight.
We will now begin
the 2020 admission ceremony
of Cheong Ah Arts High School.
You can't enter
in the middle of the ceremony.
Get out of my way.
I need to perform on stage.
- The performance hasn't begun.
- You can't go inside.
I'm performing solo today.
- I need to go inside.
- I said you can't go inside.
My gosh, please!
I really need to go inside! Move!
Hey! She needs to go inside!
My gosh, move!
- Are you okay?
- Let's go.
Catch them!
Stop!
Get off me!
Keep running!
- Mom.
- Ro Na, just go!
Go away!
Ro Na, are you okay?
(The Penthouse)
Su Ryeon, what in the world
are you thinking?
You were the first person
to tell me that you love me.
Oh Yoon Hee moved into
Min Seol Ah's house?
I bet she has something to do
with Min Seol Ah.
Did Min Seol Ah die
because you guys bullied her?
Do you want me to die
just like she did?
You should do everything you can
to protect your child.
Dad, did you kill Min Seol Ah?
I also want to live here.
I want to live in Hera Palace.
I'll do anything to make sure
you get to live here one day.
That night, she was with me
at Hera Palace.
You can check the CCTV footage.
Let's stop the witch-hunting.
What good will it do
to the school
to frame an innocent person
as an assailant?
Min Seol Ah's death ended
as a suicide case.
Must we all create another victim?
Why did Dr. Ha have to suddenly
ruin everything?
I really can't understand him.
I totally understand why.
Then won't our kids be punished?
We'll have to minimize
the damage somehow.
Are you all right?
Yes.
I believe you.
That you meant well.
Stay strong for your daughter.
Ro Na.
You must protect her.
I will.
Thank you.
Cho Sang Heon works for the people,
and I will protect you.
I've opened an account
to accept donations.
Happy Future Party
Congressman Cho Sang Heon.
What a scumbag.
(Happy Future Party

I can't leave for lunch until
after the meeting. Do you mind?
Not at all.
I'm feeling excited, thinking about
going on a date with you.
Don't mind me and finish your work.
Okay. Wait a while for me.
(CEO Joo Dan Tae)
What are you doing?
Please leave
or I'll call the chairman.
Help me. Help me one more time.
Cho Sang Heon knows that
Seol Ah's my daughter.
He's blackmailing me.
I must find something
on Cho Sang Heon.
My husband must know something.
I must find out
what Cho Sang Heon did to Seol Ah.
Please help me one more time.
The chairman ordered me
to keep tabs on Cho Sang Heon.
He's such a snake.
(Personal Details of

(Personal Details of

He's so evil.
Use this against him first.
(Newsroom Chief)
Gather round immediately. Come here.
It's Cho Sang Heon.
- The congressman.
- Cho Sang Heon.
Cho Sang Heon.
This is just the beginning.
Last night, a media outlet
reported a scandal
between an actress
and two-term congressman
Cho Sang Heon.
The congressman's office stated
the rumor is groundless,
and insists they will
report and prosecute
anyone who spreads this further.
Reporter Song has the details.
This scandal is bound to affect
the upcoming election.
Oh Yoon Hee,
you did this, didn't you?
You should've kept quiet
if you took my money.
What are you talking about, sir?
You spread the rumor,
so don't act like you don't know.
Come to my house and return
every single penny I gave you.
If you don't, I'll make sure
to ruin your daughter's life.
Hello? Hello?
Hello? Sir?
The foolish witch.
How dare she stab me in the back?
My goodness.
I will not go down on my own.
Not after what I did to get here.

(Oh Yoon Hee's Activities)
What took you so long?
I will kill you.
How did you find this place?
You must've been in a great hurry.
Can I come in?
Are you here to negotiate?
Too bad. I'm a bit busy.
I'll contact you in secret,
without your husband's knowledge.
Let's talk now.
I said I'll call you!
Did you like my present?
- What?
- It was on the news
all evening today.
How does it feel to receive
everyone's attention?
Was it you who tipped off the media?
How about we begin
the negotiation?
(Personal Details of
Hope Orphans Adopted Abroad)
What's this?
You must remember
the kids you sent abroad yourself.
The terrible crimes you committed.
Why is this a crime?
I got them sent to rich families
where they could enjoy luxuries
they could only dream of.
How dare you do business
with those poor kids?
You're no human being.
What nonsense are you on about?
Every adoption in this file
ended up getting canceled.
Just like my Seol Ah.
Where are we going, Dad?
To see your older brother.
My older brother?
Yes. Your brother is sick.
So we need your help, Anna.
Can you do that for us?
That was the first time
I heard that
I had a sick older brother.
- I'm innocent! I didn't steal!
- Shut up!
Come on.
Dad! Will you tell them?
All the kids
were sent away right after
the bone marrow transplants.
They were deported.
Did you send the poor kids abroad
to use them to make money?
When they were of no more use,
you framed and dumped them?
Listen. I know nothing about that.
How would I know what
the adoptive parents did to them?
All this was planned
when you sent them abroad.
That's how you built your building
worth tens of millions of dollars.
Can you prove that?
Must there be proof
to be guilty of sin?
Proof of your communication
with Doctor Min.
I'm well aware
of the fact that he was
laundering your money.
You did a lot of detective work.
Are you that desperate
not to get divorced?
But guess what?
You're the reason
the kid ended up like that.
You killed her
because you abandoned her.
What do you know to say that?
Beg for forgiveness
and pay the price
for the despicable things you did.
I will expose
everything you did to Seol Ah.
I've been in politics for years.
Do you think
I don't have a lifeline?
One of them is
your husband Joo Dan Tae.
If you're curious,
shall I call and ask him?
Let go of me. Let go.
Let go!
Why you
Get up.
I will kill you.
Sir, I'm here.
Sir, it's me, Oh Yoon Hee.
Are you inside?
Sir, I'm going in.
Congressman Cho, aren't you home?
Sir?
(Oh Yoon Hee's Family)
Why are photos of Ro Na
(Oh Yoon Hee's Family)
Come to my house and return
every single penny I gave you.
If you don't, I'll make sure
to ruin your daughter's life.
(Husband)
I know her.
You get out of here.
I'll deal with the rest.
A man is dead.
Trust me and leave.
Go now. Get out of here.
Leave now.
(Su Ryeon)
The person you have reached is
Where on earth is she?
I I didn't see anything.
I don't know anything.
I didn't see anything.
Are you sure it's sorted out?
The school's reputation
almost fell to the ground.
A group-lynching?
That happens to involve
my own granddaughter?
You know what the school stands for.
It's the greatest private school
with a 50-year tradition.
I'm sorry, Father.
This will never happen again.
Why did Eun Byeol do such a thing?
As if she had no role model.
That's enough, Mom.
Dad? My husband
arranged this dinner
to try and lift your spirits.
Yes. Your new resort
is receiving rave reviews.
Yes. Last month, we made
the highest profit yet again.
You're a good businessman
and you got that from your parents.
This is why one's family background
is important.
I'd like to be excused.
I must return to the clinic.
- Sit.
- Enjoy the rest of the meal.
I said sit.
Dinner isn't over yet.
What did I say?
I said Yoon Chul wouldn't like
a full-course meal like this.
Seo Jin, is something wrong?
Did you two fight?
I heard your parents'
vineyard is struggling.
Do you need money?
- Is that what this is about?
- Father.
My gosh. You have less guts than
a chick learning to swim.
I apologize for being
the man that I am.
Excuse me.
If you continue
to disappointment me,
I'll put Seo Young in charge of
Cheong Ah Foundation.
What do you mean?
Why would Seo Young
No. I will inherit the foundation
in due time.
I'll sort everything out properly.
Expanding the foundation
might be easier with
the support of Seo Young's in-laws.
If you'll give me a chance,
I'm sure I can do great, Father.
Don't get too greedy. It's mine.
Why did you marry such a fool?
Your father
never lets anything slide.
"Your father"?
Yes, your posh father and mother.
How do they never fail
to show that
they hate their eldest
daughter's husband?
What are you so unhappy about?
I put nice clothes on your back.
Can't you at least try to keep up?
What didn't I do to try?
I did enough.
Why do they dislike me so much?
Is it because my parents
are poor and ignorant?
Or because they own a vineyard?
If they hated that so much,
they shouldn't have let us marry.
I wouldn't have married you
if I'd known they'd torture me so!
You must regret this so much.
I even know you gave Yoon Hee
100,000 dollars,
so are you brazen now that
there's nothing more to hide?
You're the one who ditched
the love of your life to come to me!
It was your decision!
Do you know
you're stooping lower and lower?
I hate everything about you,
but your feeling of inferiority
that's so deep within you
that you can't shrug it off
is the worst.
Hey.
Hey! Stop where you are!
Darn it.
Darn it all!
You're home.
- When did you get home?
- Not long ago.
You called, didn't you?
I fell asleep during my massage.
I'm sorry.
You must be very tired
to get a massage
at this time of day.
And to fall asleep too.
I haven't been sleeping well lately
and it's taken a toll on me.
Attorney Lee's in your study.
I prepared some wine
and a light snack.
Okay. Thank you.
Oh, gosh.
- I'll take that.
- Thank you.
I'll enjoy the snack.
I was surprised
when you called so suddenly.
What is it? Did the kids
get up to no good again?
No. Today,
I'd like to talk about business.
Bosuk Village's redevelopment plan
will be announced in three months.
We plan to construct
a second Hera Palace.
Wasn't Bosuk Village turned down
for redevelopment many times?
Because of
compensation negotiations.
I heard that Cheongryong Village
is a more likely candidate.
Seven Bosuk Village units
are currently up for sale.
If we gather some more,
it could be a maximum of 10 units.
We only need to invest 2 million
to make 8 million in a short term
through this lucrative deal.
That much?
But under who's name?
Of course,
we'll use a borrowed name.
I've already found someone as well.
Gosh, Chairman Joo. You really know
how to get things done.
You're like my mom.
But if it's Bosuk Village,
what about Min Seol Ah?
Didn't she use to live there?
Yes.
That's why I excluded Dr. Ha
from this project.
Since he made our kids
do volunteer work
for 20 hours due
to the Min Seol Ah incident,
he must pay for disappointing us.
Great decision.
"Let's stop the witch-hunting."
"What good will it do
to the school"
"to frame an innocent person
as an assailant?"
- My goodness, what was he thinking?
- I'll see you in the garden.
Even if Ms. Oh was his first love,
his wife was watching
right next to her.
I think his mean in-laws
have made him lose his mind.
Man, what a loser.
I'm not finished yet.
The house Min Seol Ah
used to live in is included as well.
What?
But why would you include a house
where someone died?
The tenant set the place on fire
and killed herself,
so the owner is selling it
at such a cheap price.
It's a great bargain, so
I'm thinking of buying it this week.
Yes!
It's a good thing for us.
We can erase Min Seol Ah
from our lives completely.
Okay, let's do it.
That girl is actually useful to us.
Joo Dan Tae.
You will never get what you want.
I'll never let that happen.
What is it?
Why are you so worked up?
Just don't say anything
and do as I want today.
Why did an attractive woman
like you
marry a guy like Ha Yoon Chul?
I coveted what I couldn't have
and mistook it as love.
I was too foolish and rash.
Come here.
From now on, there will be nothing
you can't have.
Congressman Cho Sang Heon,
who was caught up
in a scandal with Actress A
was found dead in his bathroom
at his villa.
The police stated Congressman Cho
may have gotten drunk
and slipped in his bathroom,
resulting in a cerebral hemorrhage.
No signs of homicide have been
discovered yet.
The NFS will carry out an autopsy
to find out the exact cause
of his death.
- The police also
- He was found in the bathroom?
Something's not right.
They will hold a briefing
as soon as the results come out.
Hello?
This is Songpa Police Station.
We're carrying out
witness interviews
regarding Congressman
Cho Sang Heon's death.
Can you come to the station?
The last person he talked to
on the phone was you.
You need to come over now.
Ms. Oh. Ms. Oh?
If you scream, I'll kill you.
Don't turn around.
Who are you?
Just answer my questions.
Why did you run away
from Cho Sang Heon's house?
That's me
I didn't kill him.
He was already dead
when I got there.
It's true, please believe me.
Why did you go there?
I was being threatened.
He thought I was the one
who revealed that scandal
with that actress.
So I went there to explain.
There was someone inside his house.
I heard a phone vibrating.
I also saw a woman's bag
on the couch.
It doesn't matter what you saw.
Go to the police station
and tell them you saw Cho Sang Heon
dead in the bathroom.
Other than that,
there is nothing you saw
or heard on that day.
Why should I lie like that?
If you want to save your
daughter's life as well as yours,
you'd better do as I say.
In return,
I'll give you
some important information.
You look beautiful,
my daughter.

a piano recital
and Seok Kyung will sing
for the admission ceremony.
I heard some amazing guests
will be coming this year.
- Ms. Cheon!
- Hello.
Ms. Cheon!
What was up with Dr. Ha?
How could he take her side?
He ruined everything.
I persuaded the director
and the kids were punished
as lightly as possible.
So let's just put it behind us.
They have to do 20 hours
of volunteer work.
How could Jenny do
such a lowly thing?
How many times have you
let us down like this?
Then let's set things straight now.
Make sure you don't get involved
with me anymore.
Well, fine. Let's do that.
Do you think I'll be afraid?
You're not the only
lesson teacher around.
Class is ready to begin, Ms. Cheon.
Is everyone seated?
Wait. What class?
What do you mean?
Ms. Cheon
is the new head of the
art department as of this semester.
- What?
- What?
I'm the head of the art department,
who will oversee
your admission ceremony.
As you know, there is no
top student this year,
so Joo Seok Kyung, who came in
second will hold a recital.
Please give her a hand.
The admission ceremony
is a very important event
which boasts its tradition.
Many famous musicians
will be invited as guests.
Not only Seok Kyung,
but all of you must practice hard.
The true face of
Congressman Cho Sang Heon,
who sponsored many orphanages
for years has been exposed,
shocking the public.
After the orphans were sent abroad,
Congressman Cho made them receive
bone-marrow transplants
and get deported,
making millions of dollars
in the process.
The police arrested Mr. Min,
the director of Hope Orphanage,
who colluded with Congressman Cho
to carry out the adoptions
and are currently carrying out
an investigation.
I'll give you
some important information.

they'll release news about

by tomorrow.

worsened, so I didn't notice.

will try to kill her himself.

like my husband wants.
That's the only way
you and Hye In will live.
There's a drug that makes the heart
stop temporarily.
After the funeral, take Hye In
somewhere safe.
If you're even a second late,
she may not wake up.
Hello?
She has regained consciousness.
She was injected excessively
with a sleep inducer all this time,
so she'll need intensive care
for the time being.
Thank you so much.
I will never forget your kindness.
Thank you. Thank you so much.
(Dalhyun Real Estate Office)
What? Really? Unit 501 in Building 3
is on the market for sale?
It's been out in the market
at a really affordable price.
So lots of people have called
and asked me about it.
Did it not get sold yet?
But you know
what happened there, right?
There was an accident there.
- What accident?
- My gosh.
A young kid lived there by herself.
She set fire to the place
and committed suicide.
It was all over the news.
Are you saying that's where
But still, the owner agreed
to pay for the renovation.
So it'll be pretty much a new house.
It's facing south,
so it also gets a lot of sunlight.
No, it's okay.
Thank you.
I let her off the hook.
I could've hit her back, you know.
Then why didn't you?
This is making me so upset.
I had no other choice.
What if she asks us for
compensation again like last time?
We can't afford to move from here.
If you can't trust the information
that will totally change your life,
so be it.
The choice is yours.
(Bosuk Village

Fine. I'll just take
a leap of faith.
Who cares if someone died there?
She lived to the fullest.
What's wrong with that?
You couldn't prove your
income for the past three months,
and your payments were overdue
in the past,
so we can't grant you a loan.
I see.
Who will grant a loan
of 20,000 dollars
when the collateral
is just one small unit?
Who will grant a credit loan
when you're not even
a permanent employee?
We need to request experts
to appraise the building first,
so we can't grant you a loan today.

You must sign the contract
by midnight.

Yes.
Give me the loan.
Here. Sign this.
Right here?
(Body Abandonment Memorandum)
(Oh Yoon Hee)
Sir!
Sir. I'm in a hurry. Is anyone here?
Sir!
Sir!
Sir!
Gosh, what is all the fuss?
What brings you here so late?
(Oh Yoon Hee)
Oh Yoon Hee signed the contract
last night.
Good work.
I'll call you later.
You're already up?
You should sleep some more.
Are you feeling okay?
Yes. I feel much better now. Thanks.
By the way, did you go to
Congressman Cho's funeral?
Hardly anyone showed up.
Since he was caught up in an affair
and adoption scandal.
This is why you have to live
a clean life.
I'm off to the gym.
What about you?
What?
It's nothing. You must've changed
your perfume.
It smells nice.
What do you mean?
Someone bought that house?
I came first thing in the morning,
but someone bought that place
yesterday.
And do you want to know who it is?
Oh Yoon Hee?
She's
Gosh, can you believe this?
I doubt she knew about
the redevelopment.
I mean, no matter
how cheap of a person one could be,
wouldn't she feel guilty
to move into that place?
Her daughter got admitted
in Min Seol Ah's place,
and now, she's even taking her home?
That's just wrong.
I'll call you later.
The more I get to know her,
she's so unpredictable.
Oh Yoon Hee.
She keeps getting on my nerves
since last time.
Oh, gosh.
Darn it!
Why aren't there any articles?
This is driving me mad.
Wait. Maybe today's not the day
they announce it.
It is.
Let me see
If this goes wrong,
I'm all done for.
I'm here.
Hey, why are you munching on a snack
so early in the morning?
What was your name again?
- Sir, you have mail.
- Ms. Kim.
Your outfit looks nice and bright.
Is it summer or what? Who told you
to turn up the heat so much?
Are you just wasting all that money
since you're not paying for it?
What is all this stuff?
Why isn't there a name on this?
Wait, what is this?
My gosh.
What is this?
(I know what you did at this time.)
(I know what you did at this time.)
(Unidentified Number)
This crazy
(Cheong Ah Medical Center VIP Ward)
- Good morning.
- Good morning.
(Unidentified Number)
(I know what you did at this time.)
"I know what you did at this time"?
What will you do now?
Wait a minute, this punk even knows
where I work.
This is driving me nuts!
But that creepy eye right there.
I'm certain I saw it somewhere.
Where was it?
Why didn't you tell me
you lost that watch?
That's not important right now!
I'll be suspected right now!
- Chairman Joo.
- Let go of me.
Dr. Ha! Why couldn't you find it
in the flowerbed that night?
Are you blind or what?
Why are you getting angry at me
when you lost it?
Hey! If you had just looked
more properly!
Gosh, I really want to hit you
right now.
My goodness, how frustrating.
That sign that was hanging
above the fountain
and the recording file uploaded
on the school website.
Something's not right.
What if Min Seol Ah
really didn't kill herself?
What if one of us killed her?
That's why we're being
threatened like this.
To be honest,
the one who led this whole thing
was Chairman Joo.
You suggested first that
we should move the body
to Min Seol Ah's apartment.
Maybe you felt uneasy and wanted
to take care of it quickly.
So you dragged us into it
and even set Min Seol Ah's apartment
on fire.
You set her place on fire?
My goodness. Chairman Joo,
you're really terrifying.
Come to think of it,
didn't Seok Kyung
benefit the most from this?
She was second place
after Min Seol Ah,
so she even got to do
the solo recital.
This is exactly
what this person wants.
Doubting each other
and falling apart like this.
What's important is the fountain,
recording, and the pocket watch.
It means someone knows what we did.
Then it means there's a witness.
We must find who it is.
It's our priority to find
who's threatening us.
There's someone
I'm most suspicious of.
Who is it?
The person with the recording file,
the person who's not here right now,
and the person who wasn't there
on the night of the party.
Are you talking about Su Ryeon?
Why would Su Ryeon do that?
Her kids are involved in this too.
You're right.
Su Ryeon was the only one
who wasn't there.
And she acted all sensitive
whenever we mentioned Min Seol Ah.
Aren't I right?
She didn't come to the party
that night
and even left during
the lighting ceremony.
What if
Su Ryeon really saw us?
She said
she wasn't feeling well,
so she stayed
What is going on?
Your wife, Ms. Shim,
kept calling her too.
I'm feeling excited, thinking about
going on a date with you.
Don't mind me and finish your work.
Chairman Joo, where are you going?
What's going on?
Since when did you start
doing things behind my back?
You didn't know I had a CCTV
installed in my office?
I'm sorry, sir.
You're sorry?
Tell me what you're scheming
with my wife!
I saved you from the streets
and gave you a job.
Yet you betrayed me?
Tell me now.
What did you tell my wife?
You will never be able to get away
from me. Got it?
Thank you for taking care of me
all this time.
(End Call)
Secretary Cho. Get in here!
Bring Yoon Tae Ju to me
this instant.
Bring him to me, dead or alive.
Yes, sir.
Did you look into what I asked you?
This is your wife's phone records.
Is there anything unusual?
I searched the number
she called often lately,
and it was a detective agency.
"A detective agency"?
I mean, do we really have to go
this far?
We look so pathetic.
What are you talking about?
I'm sure she's up to something.
You should join us
since you're an attorney.
Hey, there she is.
We might lose her. Hurry!
Let's go. Fasten your seat belt.
(Aram Detective Agency)
Who are you?
Who are you?
What did she
ask you to find out?
I'll ask again.
Why did she come to see you?
I can't tell you that,
since it's confidential information.
Tell him before I break
your arms and legs.
Okay, I'll tell you.
I'll tell you everything,
so please don't hurt me.
How have you been?
I'm sorry for not visiting often.
I knew it!
What are you doing here?
How did you know I was here?
What on earth?
You even provided a charnel house
for Min Seol Ah?
Why are you so obsessed with her?
What's your relationship with her?
What are you talking about?
Are you the one
who threatened us all this time?
Are you the one who revealed
our kids' recording file?
I really trusted you.
How could you do this?
- How
- Calm down.
My goodness. You even stored
her ashes inside an urn.
Are you Min Seol Ah's mom or what?
Let me see.
This isn't Min Seol Ah.
Who is she?
She's my daughter.
What?
She died recently.
- Go say something.
- Oh
Well
- Watch out.
- Are you okay?
How could you blame her like that?
My goodness.
What?
What did you say?
An affair?
Yes. That woman in the photo
asked me to find out
about her husband's affair.
She thought her husband
was cheating on her.
I really can't disclose
personal information like this.
I'm telling you, that was it!
If this man comes here,
tell him I was suspecting that
my husband was cheating on me.
So? Did you find out anything?
No. I tried, but gave up.
He was a pretty thorough guy,
so I couldn't find anything unusual.
Chairman Joo is so horrible.
How could he hide his sick daughter
in the hospital all this time?
I know.
I can't imagine how hard
it must've been for you, Su Ryeon.
I'm about to tear up.
Then were you busy all this time
because of your daughter?
I'm sorry for not telling you.
You shouldn't be sorry.
The person who tried to keep it
a secret is the one to blame.
I heard Seol Ah committed suicide.
But my daughter was so sick
and I was too preoccupied.
It must've been so hard for you.
Think of me as your big sister now,
and rely on me from now on.
We've known each other for so long.
By any chance, was she a child
born from an affair?
If not, there would be no reason for
Chairman Joo to try to hide it.
- Don't you think?
- Ms. Cheon.
What are you talking about?
How could you be so harsh
when she lost her child?
Were you here?
Why didn't you answer my calls?
Let's go.
I'm sorry.
They followed me to the
charnel house, so I had no choice.
I wanted to keep it a secret
since she was already dead.
Don't be sorry, it's their fault.
You should take this opportunity
to become close with the ladies
of Hera Club.
I'm okay with it, so don't mind me.
Where are you?
I think my husband
caught onto something.
You need to leave immediately.
- Take the first flight
- I have
already packed up and
I'm on my way to the airport.
I'm glad. Remember to call me
when you arrive.
No, our deal ends here.
I will never call you now.
Take good care of yourself.
Thank you, Mr. Yoon.
Chairman Joo.
This is my final act of loyalty.
(2 months later)
What's this?
I found this cell phone
inside the air handling unit.
Oh, okay. Who is this?
She's not a resident here.
I'm sure she'll come back for it.
Seok Kyung, your cold
has gotten even worse.
Tomorrow is the admission ceremony,
but you're not in the condition
to perform solo.
You should go to the hospital.
I don't think Seok Kyung
will be able to do the performance.
I know you practiced really hard,
so I'm sorry it has to be this way.
It's an important performance,
and we can't ruin it because of you.
We need someone to replace
Seok Kyung's solo performance.
But we don't have much time.
Is there anyone who would like
to volunteer?
I'll give it a try.
Really? Are you confident?
Yes, let me give it a try.
Then let's have Eun Byeol
do the solo
I'd also like
to give it a try.
Ro Na, have you lost your mind?
You should know your place.
Really?
Then why don't we listen
to both of your performances
and choose the person
that does better?
Who wants to go first?
I enjoyed both your performances.
Now I'll decide.
This song
was better performed by Ro Na
in all aspects.
Ro Na, you can
perform solo tomorrow.
Thank you, Ms. Cheon.
I promise I'll do my best.
You need to do your best
for the admission ceremony.
Do you think you can do that?
Yes.
I'll look forward to it.
I borrowed it last minute.
But it looks great on you.
You look beautiful, Ro Na.
I can't believe
I'll be performing
at the admission ceremony
of Cheong Ah Arts High School.
Mom, I'm not dreaming, am I?
I heard a lot of famous businessmen
and women are going to be there.
I'm going to do really well
just like you, Mom.
The kids made fun of me
for being on the waiting list,
but I'll teach them a lesson.
You just wait.
You do that. I'm so proud of you.
I can't believe how happy I am
thanks to you.
Thank you.
But Mom, why do you look
so down these days?
Is something on your mind?
No, everything is fine.
- Let's go.
- Okay.
Are you ready? We're almost there.
Okay.

(Congratulations,

(2020 Cheong Ah Arts High School
Admission Ceremony)
Hey, how did it go?
Okay.
Okay, good work.
Get ready, Eun Byeol.
This was supposed to be your stage.
Your grandfather is here.
You need to show him
that you're the future owner
of Cheong Ah Arts High School.
Ro Na! Ro Na, are you okay?
Ro Na! Look at me!
Let's Let's go to a hospital.
Mom, I'm okay.
I need to perform.
Ro Na, you're badly injured.
You need to go to a hospital.
I'm telling you I'm fine!
Hurry! I need to go to school!
I can't be late! Mom, please hurry!
What am I going to do?
Ro Na, hold on tight.
We will now begin
the 2020 admission ceremony
of Cheong Ah Arts High School.
You can't enter
in the middle of the ceremony.
Get out of my way.
I need to perform on stage.
- The performance hasn't begun.
- You can't go inside.
I'm performing solo today.
- I need to go inside.
- I said you can't go inside.
My gosh, please!
I really need to go inside! Move!
Hey! She needs to go inside!
My gosh, move!
- Are you okay?
- Let's go.
Catch them!
Stop!
Get off me!
Keep running!
- Mom.
- Ro Na, just go!
Go away!
Ro Na, are you okay?
(The Penthouse)
Su Ryeon, what in the world
are you thinking?
You were the first person
to tell me that you love me.
Oh Yoon Hee moved into
Min Seol Ah's house?
I bet she has something to do
with Min Seol Ah.
Did Min Seol Ah die
because you guys bullied her?
Do you want me to die
just like she did?
You should do everything you can
to protect your child.
Dad, did you kill Min Seol Ah?
I also want to live here.
I want to live in Hera Palace.
I'll do anything to make sure
you get to live here one day.
