Dali and the Cocky Prince (2021) s01e13 Episode Script

1
RESTRICTED AREA
Just say that Director Kim Nak-cheon
seemed a little different
whenever artwork came in.
It's nothing difficult.
This is just ridiculous.
He bleached his hair
and removed body hair.
Darn it.
The case is getting transferred.
It's getting transferred?
-Darn it.
-Where are you going?
Let go of me, you punk!
Hey, man!
Then what?
Will you indict someone who's dead?
The case will get dropped anyway.
You'll only make a row.
They're going to transfer it
and let it blow over.
-That's how it is.
-Why won't he be indicted?
It's obvious that Kim Si-hyeong
is the culprit.
The Cheongsong family
also wants to put a lid on this.
What?
Let's be frank.
This will taint their reputation.
Ms. Kim isn't the only one
in the Cheongsong family.
There's even a video.
What if it gets leaked?
Then it'd be game over for them.
They can just say that Mr. Kim was ill
and thought that those drugs
were painkillers.
It's best for them if we keep this silent.
He's right.
Anyway, our higher-ups
are currently speaking with Cheongsong,
so let's end it at that.
-Let's go have some soju.
-Goodbye.
Hey
This is Snow Flower.
It's the best quality of meth there is.
These drugs are worth almost
500 million won.
Are you saying he smuggled them
just to relieve his pain?
What kind of nonsense is that?
Hey, look.
Hey, when was the video taken again?
What?
Where was that painting from again?
-Look for it.
-Why
-What do you want me to do?
-Mr. Joo.
Hello
Ms. Song.
Why Why are you here?
I'm here to
Why are you in a disguise?
I usually dress like this
unless I'm going to work.
Really? That's news to me. Gosh.
-Have some.
-Thank you.
-My pleasure.
-Thank you.
He told me to say that Director Kim seemed
a little different
whenever artwork came in.
In return,
he'd let me be the director
of Jeil Newspaper's art museum.
And he'd pay for my mother's sanitarium.
He promised to send my son abroad
and let me be the head curator
at the National Museum.
Assemblyman Ahn promised that?
But why?
Did he resent Mr. Kim?
Last time, Ms. Kim posted a petition
on the Blue House website
regarding real estate.
Maybe he's taking revenge.
Don't you think he's spending
too much money for personal vengeance?
I know he's an assemblyman,
but how can he afford a study
abroad program and sanitarium fees?
Do you have any proof?
Perhaps, a call log or a voice recording.
You see, he checked my phone
as soon as we met.
And he seemed to have used
a burner phone.
The number you dialed does not exist.
No way.
What? Why was he there?
Did he normally
handle the foreign artwork himself
whenever they came in?
No. There was no need for that.
Even if that was the case,
we would've noticed.
Whenever we receive a foreign art piece,
three curators unwrap it together.
-Because there are times
-Be careful.
when the artworks are damaged.
And we film everything.
We would've noticed
if there was something on the frame.
When was this again?
It was that day.
The day before his death.
Come in.
Sir.
The artwork we received from New York
seems a bit off.
I think someone must have touched it.
What are you talking about?
I checked everything
before I left yesterday.
Hold on.
Where?
New York?
As in the US?
Yes. The one in the US.
Are you sure it was the US, not Asia?
Yes, I'm sure.
That's correct.
Look for the footage of
when you were unwrapping the artwork.
It's this one.
-Cindy Gostan, right?
-Yes, you're right.
Is this the same frame?
I think so.
But maybe not.
-They're different.
-My goodness.
MR. JIN
Could you get back together
with Tae-jin?
You could do that much
for our family's sake, couldn't you?
I mean, you're one of us, aren't you?
Do you know
what your so-called mother did to Da-li?
Wait. Is she not your mother?
You're such a messed-up family,
so I don't know your family tree.
Fine. I grabbed her hair
and slapped her a few times.
A girl like that
deserves to be beaten more.
How dare she seduce you
and bring misfortune to our family?
DA-LI
I heard
the woman my father lives with came
to see you.
Are you okay?
I'm sorry.
-This won't happen ever
-I'm sorry.
I'm a bit tired.
I'd like to go home and rest.
Okay
Go upstairs first.
I'll cook something simple and
No
I just want to sleep.
I don't need anything.
Dad
What do you want me to do?
That jerk, Kim Si-hyeong.
He was a client at a bar,
my previous workplace.
What bar?
I'm sorry.
Naturally
he found out that I lied on my resume.
At first, he pretended
not to know anything, but later on,
he blackmailed me
that if I didn't do what he wanted,
he would tell everyone.
What did he make you do?
He told me to take out a painting
from the museum's storage.
So he stole a painting registered
under the museum?
I knew it.
I could tell someone had been there.
So
what does that have to do
with the footage?
Because I switched the painting
in the video too.
Just like how I stole a painting
from the storage.
If we stole them without replacements,
he'd find out.
So we had been switching them
with fake paintings.
But
he asked me to do something that day
he never asked before.
Kim Si-hyeong told me
to put the original painting back.
And he wanted me to bring back
the fake painting Director Kim broke.
What is my uncle doing?
Did he say anything?
He just said he broke the frame
by accident.
He didn't ask for me?
No
Why didn't he say anything?
By the way,
why do you want this back?
You're not going to sell it?
You just stick to what I tell you to do.
Don't stick your nose
where it doesn't belong.
What a nosy brat.
So he wanted you
to put the original painting back?
If he was going to return it,
what was the point
of going through the trouble?
Let's sum it up chronologically.
Kim Si-hyeong made you
switch the original painting
with a fake one
that had drugs hidden inside.
And he took a video of Director Kim
looking for the drugs.
And after taking that video,
you put the painting back?
Is that correct?
He was trying to get him on camera.
Tae-jin
What brings you here this morning?
Let's talk on the way.
I don't have much time.
Get in.
Don't get in.
Don't. Let me drive you.
I'll drop you off. Get in my car.
Mr. Jin.
Talk with me first. We still need to talk.
Let's talk
while we have breakfast together.
I need to tell you something.
How long will you stand here,
listening to his pathetic words?
I'll call you after work.
I also have to tell you something.
Gallery Mond
has been handling our account so far.
And our contract with them ends soon.
I want you to take over.
You can rent us the paintings
your museum has.
If you need more paintings,
you can buy them.
Decorate it however you want
to your heart's content.
Tae-jin
Here
Chat Noir Collection?
A lot of museums hold collections
with high-end art pieces now.
You can't leave your museum vacant
like that.
But you can't hold an exhibition
with only the pieces you have.
It won't be enough. Right?
You need to show Cheongsong's
still a prestigious museum.
But you can't hold an exhibition
just because you want to.
I already talked
to the Chat Noir Collection.
The decision is yours.
-Tae-jin.
-Which lawyer will you hire?
You should hire a lawyer
who specializes in this field
-instead of Lawyer Cha.
-So you met up with my uncle.
Is that what the professor said?
I don't know what my uncle told you,
but don't worry too much about it.
He must be confused
-because things have been bad
-I don't care.
Good. I was worried.
From now on, I'm only going to talk
about you and me.
I was wrong, Da-li.
I'm sorry.
Tae-jin
I should've told you that
when I first met you again,
but I couldn't.
My head went blank.
My condolences for your loss.
That's when I realized
that you were the only woman in my life.
You were then, you are now,
and you always will be.
Why are you saying this?
That's why I truly regret the decision
I made five years ago.
Because I was young.
Because my position within the group
was unstable at the time.
Because I was afraid
to face society's prejudices
regarding family and bloodline.
Whatever excuse I try to find,
it's hard to forgive myself
for making a decision I cannot undo.
-Tae-jin
-But
I decided to stop
with all the remorse and regret.
Give me a chance.
For everything I've done wrong,
I'll spend the rest of my life
by your side,
repenting and making it up to you.
And
I think it's time for you
to come back to me too.
Everything you want to protect,
Cheongsong, your dad, the museum.
You can protect it by my side.
I'll make sure no one dares
to mess with you again.
Let's get married.
MR. JIN
Are you okay?
You do know
the risks he's taking
by handing these over to you,
right?
If you end up using and dumping him,
that'll make you an evil person.
You'll be punished for doing that.
You little
Who do you think you are
to ruin my son's future?
Who do you think you are?
What did you tell Ahn Sang-tae?
I swear.
How are we supposed to work
when even our hard drives are gone?
What about the next exhibition?
My business card book
and my notebooks are all missing.
And the lunch menu.
Why would someone take that?
Who told you to vacate the office
like that without telling anyone?
You realize how embarrassed Ms. Kim and I
Ms. Kim.
We know you're having a hard time,
and we're sorry to add to your burden.
You must have been worried sick.
We apologize.
Did something happen?
I heard you were trying to transfer
to another museum.
That
Well
How can he do that
to his uncle in sheep's clothing?
So what are we going to do about him?
We have to arrest him
and Ahn Sang-tae immediately.
We told the police all we know,
so they'll deal with it now.
We should've reported right away.
We're sorry.
That's okay.
I know an opportunity like that
must have been hard to resist.
Thank you for reporting it.
I also
have something to say.
I must ask for your understanding.
I'm considering
giving the Basquiat exhibit
to another museum.
I know my father and you all put in
a lot of effort,
but it's too much for me to handle.
I'm sorry I had to make
a decision like this.
I'll look for museums
we can give it up to.
There will be plenty of bids
for the Basquiat exhibit.
And
the artworks for the auction
will also soon be sent off.
My uncle dropped his lawsuit.
Ms. Kim
If it's about our salary,
don't you think we can hold it out
for a few more months?
Yes
We're all part of the museum.
We should share the burden.
No
We should start preparing
for the next exhibition,
and we need some spare money
for the for-profit business.
The debt must also be paid off.
You're going to settle things with Dondon?
Are we no longer working
with Mr. Jin then?
Who are you?
Wait
Aren't you the chefs from Dondon?
Hello. Come in.
Are you okay?
I'll call you after work.
I also have to tell you something.
You're just like gamjatang.
When people are close to you,
they get dirty and smelly.
-What's going on?
-Follow me.
-Here you go.
-Thank you.
Please eat.
Please eat.
Please
Eat
You need to eat to gain enough strength
to fight back.
Ms. Yeo?
That's what you used to tell us,
employees,
every time we would skip a meal
because we didn't feel like eating.
You would personally cook for us.
It's because of Jang Tae-jin, no?
What did he say?
-To let go of Kim Da-li?
-It's nothing like that.
If it isn't that
Then what's making you look
so utterly dejected?
To the point you're skipping meals,
which you've never done before?
Why is Jang Tae-jin so great?
Who does he think he is?
Who cares if he's with Segi Group?
We're with Dondon F&B!
Bring it on, really.
Stop that. You're embarrassing me.
Goodness, look at how worn out you are.
This is breaking my heart.
I never do this for anyone,
but I'll do it for you.
Come here.
Open your eyes.
And your neck.
Goodness, you're so wrinkly.
Gosh
And as a woman,
I say
you're more than good enough
to be his competition.
You have good looks.
You have lots of money.
You're very shrewd. And your education?
Well, it's not like
being educated
will put food in your mouth.
And your family?
Well, who you are is the most important.
When it comes to culture
Okay, fine. It's not like people always
have conversations about culture.
Remember those soap operas?
She'll only get in trouble
if she dates a guy
from a distinguished family.
They treat her like a gold digger
just because they have money.
You know that, right?
The future mother-in-law always
splashes the girl on the face with water,
pulls her hair out, shakes her,
spins her around, and beats her.
Goodness, if I knew
I'd be treated like that,
I'd rather date a guy who has a few flaws.
I'm totally right about it. Seriously.
Gosh
-You can finish this alone.
-What?
Mr. Jin. Did I do something wrong?
I'm totally right.
Mr. Jin? My gosh, he's driving me crazy.
Hey, Mu-hak. About that
What's with that punk?
Hey
Mu-hak
Hey
Your brother is calling you.
DIRECTOR JIN MU-HAK
Last night, what did you mean by that?
What do you mean,
Dad will need to live his own life
as you'll live your own?
Are you saying
you'll cut us off
and not call us your family?
I can't just cut off my family
even if I wanted to.
If I could, I'd love to.
So what do you mean by that?
You didn't want to be the son
of a gamjatang business.
You and Dad
can take the construction company.
I'll take Dondon Gamjatang.
What's with you, punk?
Who do you think Dondon F&B belongs to?
Our father is the chairman,
and I'm the chief director.
You're just a director.
You do know Dondon Holdings
has all rights over Dondon F&B,
and that it belongs to me,
who's just a director, right?
-What?
-Gamjatang.
You hated it to death
when others looked down on you
and said you smelled,
so why do you want it now?
Let's split up the subsidiaries.
You can take the construction company.
Wake up, you punk.
You can't be with Kim Da-li
even if you did this.
You do know
who has his eyes on her, right?
You probably got the hint
while you were at the museum.
Mu-hak
No
It's not going to work.
It doesn't have anything to do
with splitting up the company.
I'm just saying this as a brother.
Don't mess with Jang Tae-jin.
If you do, there's no way
we can deal with him.
Dondon could collapse in a second!
Is Jang Tae-jin behind Ahn Sang-tae?
-What?
-What do you have on Jang Tae-jin?
Did you dig up his corruption?
What are you saying?
What are you talking about?
I don't have anything.
Darn it.
He's a part of Segi Group.
Don't you know how
even people in politics and the judiciary
bow down before them too?
Nothing good can happen
when a small business like us
rubs a big corporation the wrong way.
That's why I said that.
Yes, that's why, you punk.
Wait. Look at the time.
I have to be in a meeting. Bye, then.
I warned you.
Don't ever mess with Jang Tae-jin.
I want something more special,
not an ordinary design like this.
Do you not like it?
In that case
This is made
with a square-mixed cut diamond.
It's an extraordinary design
for a wedding ring, so
Could you give us a moment?
We'll bring another wedding ring.
THE ONE AND ONLY RING OF ITS KIND
CHOSEN BY DIRECTOR JANG TAE-JIN OF SEGI
That's a wedding ring.
Look at the size.
That has to be over five carats.
-How much is that?
-Enough to lease an apartment.
-Who's the bride?
-I'm so jealous.
It was fun to do that Frog Restaurant.
We had fun at the museum.
We're now members there.
We can go there
when they hold exhibitions.
And attend workshops too.
What about Mr. Jin?
What about him?
You still couldn't take a hint?
He's, you know,
all that about the director of the museum.
"All that"?
Yes, all that, you know.
Like all those feelings.
That's why he got into a fight
with Jang Tae-jin too.
If Cheongsong
decides to get rid of Mr. Jin,
he'll never get to see her.
What will happen to him now?
People say, "Out of sight, out of mind."
I hear Jang Tae-jin
already bought a wedding ring.
It's game over.
Who bought what?
-My goodness.
-You're here.
What did you just say?
MUSEUM FLOOR PLAN
MAIN EXHIBITION HALL
Other artists said
they'd make a decision
once the investigation is settled.
They were set on it.
I couldn't even bring it up.
But artists like Yoo Yong-seon,
Parky, and Boo Ji-hyeon
might give us their works
for us to display
if we visit them
and explain our situation.
Then let's focus on what we can do.
The studios for Yoo Yong-seon
and Parky are out of the city,
so Ms. Song and I'll go.
We have cars.
But Boo Ji-hyeon's studio is far too.
It'll be tough to find.
Who says you can put an end to this?
If you end things as you like,
is that the end?
Did you feel that too?
Those weren't the eyes
of a creditor and debtor.
Those were the eyes
of a couple in love, right?
I think you're right.
I think Mr. Hwang's hunch was right.
What hunch?
Mr. Jin just barged
into the exhibition hall,
then he got all charismatic
Gosh, he was so charismatic.
You saw it too, right?
Do you know what he said?
Let's say you're Ms. Kim and I'm Mr. Jin.
I come in.
"Who says you can put an end to this?
If you end things as you like,
is that the end?
What a load of garbage!"
"Mr. Jin.
We're not breaking up."
-That's it.
-Come on, guys.
We shouldn't be here right now.
Is there a way we can eavesdrop better?
It's quite difficult to hear.
The museum can't afford
to pay my money back now.
You've even put a halt
to the upcoming exhibition.
Paying me back isn't the priority.
I can hand over the Basquiat exhibition
to another museum.
And I'll auction off the artwork we have.
If that was possible,
you would've done it long ago.
There must've been a reason
why you didn't.
It was out of greed.
What?
I didn't want to sell the artwork
for cheap.
I wanted our museum
to hold great exhibitions.
That's why
I was inconsiderate
of your inconveniences.
Thank you.
Imagining you, as a kid,
delivering food at the market,
counting the cash with your tiny hands,
then running off again to deliver more
breaks my heart.
Compared to everyone else
who demands their money,
the weight of your money feels heavier.
What are you saying?
I was being too selfish.
I was only interested in my affairs.
I was inconsiderate toward you.
You lost a lot of money because of me.
You must've been put in a
difficult position at work and at home.
I'd like to pay back
your investment money.
I've already explained
the situation to them.
I chose to do this.
You just did what you had to do.
Is this because of the woman
who lives with my father?
No, it's not.
-Then is it Jang Tae-jin?
-Mr. Jin
Word has it that he's looking
for a proposal ring.
Is that why?
-No.
-Then just continue being selfish!
Stop making me nervous with your nonsense
about being considerate
and how I value money.
I decide how much
damage and pressure I can take.
You don't need to get ahead of yourself.
If I'm worried about the money,
I'll leave first.
So until then,
you're staying by my side.
My goodness.
Let's not stay here.
A money-grubber who refuses money.
Why?
Beats me.
He got upset that she'd pay him back.
I think I can understand him.
-What?
-What?
That's the only connection he has to her.
He's nervous that their sole connection
will go away.
If they still cross paths
even after that connection is lost,
that'd be true love. Goodness.
This is a new side of him.
You're right.
If he was such a romantic guy,
why is he still single?
Maybe he has a crush on someone.
Maybe he got dumped.
Hello
I think you can enlarge this photo.
It needs to be bigger.
Here you go.
And you.
And you too.
What is this?
I'm sorry for not showing up for work
without calling in advance.
I'm sorry. It won't happen again.
I know what this is.
This is the secret to your beauty.
-Let me show you.
-Forget it. I can do it myself.
Gosh
Don't let others know about it.
Let's keep this a secret
so that only we can stay beautiful.
I'll think about it.
-Am I doing it right?
-A bit more over here.
Right. Cheongsong is offering
the Basquiat exhibition to another museum.
The Basquiat exhibition?
That would've been a hit,
so why would they do that?
Isn't it obvious?
They're running out of money.
There was a huge commotion.
I thought she was closing down the museum
since she's marrying Jang Tae-jin.
Word has it that
he bought a huge wedding ring.
So that's why he terminated
our contract prematurely
and signed a contract
with Cheongsong Museum of Art.
But then again, an assemblyman
can't hold a candle to Segi Group.
What is this card you have up your sleeve?
When will you use it?
Don't you know it could go to waste?
Put an end to Ahn Sang-tae
or strike a deal
with whoever's ordering him.
Do something.
I'm looking for the best timing.
And when exactly is that?
Once we completely cut ties with Mu-hak?
Once our new construction company
goes under?
If that's not it, then once I'm dead?
You see
Both you and your mother
only know how to sponge off me.
What have you two contributed
to our family?
Do you know how much money
I spent on you guys?
Dad
What?
Did you think I was joking?
Did you think
I was just trying to scare you
when I said I'd cut ties with you?
Lead the way.
If you can't do it, then I will.
Take me to Ahn Sang-tae's house!
Do you think this is all because of him?
-What?
-If it was,
I wouldn't have even bothered
to begin this.
Goodness
Why has Segi Group's stock price
risen this much?
Is something up?
Let's see
A wedding ring? For Kim Da-li?
What do you think you're doing?
Who is that scumbag?
Segi
You should go.
Go home
and think about
how you'll take responsibility for this.
Because you will.
I think there's been a misunderstanding
-Get lost!
-Yes, sir.
Darn it.
What if something terrible happens?
That won't happen. What can he do?
She deserved that beating.
What kind of mother would sit
and watch her son suffer?
-We're home!
-What?
-Dad, come in.
-Okay.
Why are you guys home already?
-Did something happen at work?
-No, nothing happened.
I think something did.
Don't worry. Everything will be solved.
Our eldest son,
Chief Director Jin Gi-cheol,
will take care of everything.
You're finally earning your keep.
Right, Gi-cheol?
Of course.
What a good boy.
I should take a shower first.
Dad, thank you for today!
No problem.
What? What is it?
What is it?
SEONGDONG POLICE STATION
It just doesn't make sense
that the US airport security
didn't detect the drugs.
All of the artwork was screened by X-ray.
How could they fail
to spot over 100g of drugs?
On top of that, it's meth.
Who smuggles meth from the US?
If Na Gong-ju was telling the truth,
the frame was the key, not the artwork.
To be exact, it was the footage of Mr. Kim
searching for the drugs in the frame.
Because this would serve as solid proof.
But why would Kim Si-hyeong do this?
And why did Ahn Sang-tae
try to bribe the museum employees?
That's for Si-hyeong to answer.
Kim Si-hyeong.
Darn it. What if he already skipped town?
I saw a stack of his mail too.
Come on.
Darn it.
I'll pay you back. Come on!
Hey, Kim Si-hyeong.
Darn it. Hey, Kim Si-hyeong!
Kim Si-hyeong!
Darn it.
Darn it.
Taking the bus will be better
because of rush hour.
You can go to Yeoncheon on the bus.
Then call a cab once you arrive.
SONGSAN EXPRESS
NAMSEO-DONG, YEONCHEON
I think it's time for you
to come back to me too.
Everything you want to protect,
Cheongsong, your dad, the museum.
You can protect it by my side.
I'll make sure no one dares
to mess with you again.
Let's get married.
We already closed that chapter.
Marry me.
I love someone else.
I can understand that
after everything I did you.
I can understand
why you'd want to turn me down.
And when things suddenly get tough,
we all want to rely on anyone
who can be there
Must I talk about this with you now?
Why are you doing this to me too?
I was going to be patient
given your circumstance.
But I'm getting a bit anxious now.
I'm about to run out of my patience.
-Tae-jin.
-Whatever happens,
you will have to marry me.
So you should make a wise decision.
The longer you take
to end things with him,
it'll just be harder for him.
ROOFTOP
Hello?
Hey, this is your tenant.
Are you at home now?
Okay. Can you check if Da-li is at home?
She must have gotten off work,
but her phone's off.
What's this about?
Kim Si-hyeong is on the run.
I can't tell you the details
because they are confidential.
Kim Si-hyeong just became a suspect
from a witness.
I wanted to make sure just in case.
I can never expect what he'll do.
Ms. Kim.
Ms. Kim.
SECRETARY YEO
Ms. Yeo, it's me.
You have phone numbers for Mr. Han
or Ms. Song of Cheongsong, right?
Ms. Kim?
She went to Yeoncheon
to meet up with an artist.
She should have arrived there
a long time ago.
I'll call the artist.
It's well past the scheduled
time for our meeting.
I was getting worried too.
DA-LI
The phone is turned off.
You'll be directed to voicemail.
The bus probably stopped running
by this time.
She should have been here
a long time ago if she took a cab.
NAMSEO-DONG, YEONCHEON
Miss
Yes?
This is the end of the route.
You have to get off now.
I'm sorry.
Miss
Miss
Miss
Miss!
What are you doing?
Doesn't this belong to you?
I see.
I'm sorry if I scared you.
Then get home safely.
Thank you.
Sir
How can I get to Sinhaeng-ri from here?
It's where an old brick factory was.
It's too dangerous for a woman
to go there alone at this hour.
You should call a cab.
You'll be there in no time.
I'm so stupid!
I'm so stupid!
Don't. Let me drive you.
I'll drop you off. Get in my car.
OINTMEN
Mr. Jin.
What brings you here?
Mr. Jin.
What's going on?
Why are you doing this?
I'm sorry for everything.
I'll do everything you say.
Please don't go anywhere.
Please stay by my side.
Mr. Jin.
I love you.
I love you.
I'm sorry.
I can no longer remain
by your side, Mr. Jin.
At least not as a debtor
and a creditor.
I want to love you with confidence
as equals.
I love you too.
Until when will you call me Mr. Jin?
Then which one do you like, darling?
Wow
"Darling"?
It's because I miss you so much.
Darling!
Should I tell the whole world
what happened that night?
We may all be nothing but dust,
but then we're all stars too.
Dondon made a deal with Ahn Sang-tae.
The bigger it blows up, the better.
-There's a huge problem.
-Stop this immediately. Leave him alone.
