Woman of Dignity (Poomwiitneun Geunyeo) (2017) s01e15 Episode Script
Episode 15
We should sell off the company while it's doing so well.
Sell it and keep the cash! Your stepmother took over the company? Their second son's the only one who knows.
But I'm sure he'd never imagined that we're selling the company.
Don't trust Park Bok-ja too much.
I've been watching it but I think she's gone too far.
We do have a complex process that we accept a new member into our group.
They're noble, and very intellectual.
- How much do you want? - 750 million dollars in cash.
Vice Chairperson sold off all her stocks to a private funding group.
We can't reach her anymore It's concussion.
No sign of rape or resisting.
She was hit twice with a dull object here.
Her blood vessels popped right away.
We have nowhere to keep the body, can you take it away? OK.
Who do you think did it? I thought it was her, but it's not.
That's the only thing I'm certain about.
Where should I take you to? - The Bangwon Hospital, please.
- OK.
The results from Nation Forensic Services come out in 3 weeks.
But the cause of death it concussion, hit by a dull object.
The approximate time of death is The first call was received that morning at 9:17 AM.
Next is the list of suspects.
Ahn Tae-dong.
The husband of Park Ji-young, and he's got the clearest motivation to murder her.
You're too busy that I never see you anymore.
There's no joy in my life anymore.
The company has to run well so you'll have peace of mind without stress.
I can't leave you.
- What are you talking about? - I trust you.
Why does that sound like you actually don't trust me? Ahn Jae-gu.
He's the oldest son of Ahn Tae-dong.
He had threatened Park Ji-young many times before she died.
He also has a criminal record for attempted murder.
He's our prime suspect.
I've killed a person before.
It's hard the first time, but it gets easier the next time, you know.
You think I'm a joke? You think you can throw out my wife and son? Ahn Jae-hee.
Ahn Tae-dong's daughter.
She was in the same location with Park on the day of the murder, but she lied that she wasn't.
Hey you, why don't you bring out some food for me? I'm here as a caregiver.
So what? Jae-hee, you're old enough now, aren't you? Stop whining.
What did you just say? Should I put soap all over the bathroom? So she'd slip, fall, and die? Park Joo-mi.
She's Ahn Tae-dong's daughter-in-law.
She has no alibi for the day of the murder.
She's another prime suspect based on others' testimonies.
They're putting on a show! He's gotta be connected with this woman.
She planned this whole thing! Be quiet! How can you come up with a ridiculous charge like that? If you really can't figure anything out, at least do something before you leave.
At least kill her before you leave.
Cheon Bang-soon.
She's from the same town as Park Ji-young, they worked at the same bar before.
I'll be your eyes and ears as you wished! I trust you.
You know that, right? What's your plan from here on? Don't ask me things like that.
And Call me "Ma'am" even when we're alone.
She feels betrayed at Park Ji-young's actions.
She testified that if no one had killed Park Ji-young, she would've.
We plan to put her through a polygraph test.
Gu Bong-cheol.
He was practically Park Ji-young's little brother in the orphanage.
He's gone missing, we put him in the wanted list.
Make her stop what she's doing.
She can't keep doing what she wants to.
Make her a cripple.
Han Min-gi.
He's the head of "MK Capital.
" It's a little hard to tell if he was on friendly terms with Park Ji-young or if they were enemies.
Hello, I'm Han Min-gi, the CEO of MK Capital.
We have a private investment funding group.
"The Seven Princesses.
" There's a phone record between them a little before she died.
So Detective Lee, Ms.
Woo Ah-jin is here.
(Episode 15: The suspects) The day Ahn Tae-dong had a stroke Were you with Park Ji-young? No.
I wasn't with her.
I heard Park Ji-young went to your divorce trial.
- And you called her to meet with you.
- Yes.
But she left after the trial.
I called her again after, but she never picked up.
How did you get in contact with her after? Based on your testimony so far Park Ji-young received all of the company stocks, then sold them to a private fund.
She took the cash and disappeared.
Then, why did Park Ji-young change her mind all of a sudden and came back home? Matisse and Kandinsky She came back because of them.
The divorce suit made by the claimant, Woo Ah-jin, is approved for the divorce as requested by her.
- Hello? - Ah-jin.
Ms.
Park, Mr.
Ahn had a stroke! Chairman's had a stroke.
I I'm not coming back.
Ma'am? Please Take good care of him.
Mr.
Kim, did you get ahold of Vice Chairperson? Oh, her I don't think she's coming back.
You knew it all along? You did, right? How much did she pay you? No, Secretary Oh, you're mistaken.
Mistaken? She told me that if I continued to report to her about his every move Then? If I continued to do that She said she'd raise my salary to another 1,000 dollars That's ridiculous.
It's true! Does this mean she betrayed Mr.
Ahn, sold off all the stocks and ran away? We all started to suspect each other.
We couldn't tell anymore What is true? What is a lie? Ms.
Cheon? What are you doing? I'm leaving today.
The main madam told me to leave.
That makes no sense.
You're leaving now that you're done achieving your goal? What? You're not going anywhere! - What are you doing? - Ma'am! Ma'am! This woman is running away! Look how thick-skinned she is! Where's Park Bok-ja? I don't know! - Ma'am! - Shut up! You knew it all along.
She sold off the company and ran away.
She sold it for 750 million dollars in cash! Tell me where she is.
Aren't you on your way to meet her? How much is she paying you? Ma'am.
I told Mr.
Ahn about Park Bok-ja, just like you told me to! How can you do this to me now? You think I don't know? You just go from one side to another.
Ms.
Cho saw that you two were talking alone! Why not? You wanted to have a child.
A change of heart.
I found a better way than giving birth to a child to take money.
What's your plan from here on? - Ms.
Cho? - Yes, Ma'am.
She's an accomplice.
Make sure she doesn't take one step out of this house! You're an opportunist! I can't believe this! What's going on? How much did you get? Get what? The company's sold, right? What? You bastard, you swallowed up the company by yourself? What are you talking about? Dad's business sold, you knew it, didn't you? What are you talking about, it's sold? All he did was to give his entire stock shares to her.
What, is there something more? She then sold her entire stock shares to a private funding group! What? - Chairperson approved it.
- Who'd you hear that from? The shareholders came a little earlier and fought earlier.
They're having a meeting soon.
How come no one's told me this? How can this happen? The company's sold? Who said it's OK? Look at this guy You're quite an actor! How can it make any sense that you didn't know? Look at this bastard, you're a shareholder too! You expect me to believe that they did this without saying a word to you? Really Why are you doing this to me? I just got divorced! That's not what's important right now! Give us our shares! I just got a divorce! A divorce! Don't do this to me! - Where's Dad? - He collapsed, he's in the hospital.
Whoa.
What? Father Ma'am.
You can't get ahold of her? She's not coming.
What happened to the company? Was it really sold? Chairman's entire stock shares have been sold.
Is it true that It was Mr.
Ahn's decision? Attorney Kim is talking to the shareholders right now.
This is a contract saying that Mr.
Ahn's entire stock shares are given to Park Bok-ja I mean, Park Ji-young.
We already know that.
But she sold off the company right away? To whom? My father didn't know that, right? It was his decision to sell the company.
No way, I don't believe this.
As you can see, MK Capital is now the biggest shareholder of Daesung Pulp.
Until we assign a professional CEO, I'll be the interim CEO for now.
Makes no sense! This makes no sense! Who says you can start running my dad's company? Who do you think you are? Our firm purchased Daesung through a legal method, and paid top dollars for it.
The payment was given to Park Ji-young, the biggest shareholder.
Park Ji-young? She changed her name.
She's crazy.
So I hereby announce that operation of Daesung Pulp is now managed by MK Capital.
That is all.
What? I knew nothing about this! How can this happen? You know where she is? I traced her phone location.
What do you want to do with Park Bok-ja? What should I do with her? Let's kill her.
She needs to be killed.
That's the only way.
- Hello? - Where are you? I'm on my way to get her.
I got her cellphone location.
What are you gonna do when you get her? We gotta get that money back at all cost.
I'll have her beaten, half-dead, then bring her.
Forget it.
I'll go instead.
Where is she? There's no need.
You've been exposed too much already.
And you failed every time.
I'll do it this time.
If I can't have her beaten just half-dead, I'll kill her instead.
Once she dies Who do you think is the legal heir then? It's gotta be your father again, right? We can take it back that way.
Where is this woman now? Jae-gu! Jae-gu! Did you guys really get a divorce? I feel terrible.
What a great job you've done! If Dad's hospitalized, who's there to take care of him? (Woo Ah-jin) Wow, is this it? "Ahn Jae-suc and Yoon Seong-hee agree on the following terms.
" "Ahn Jae-suc is the legal owner of this property.
" "Ahn Jae-suc agrees to have Yoon Seong-hee's name on document.
" The lawyer was right! How can you be so careless to sign something like this? He told me that it's for my own good! What do we do now? He seems like a fool but look, he's thought it through! What do we do? I'm sure he's got another copy for himself.
What if we find it and get rid of it? That's true! Then let me go to his wife's room and search for it.
The maid is still out there.
Lady? I have a terrible headache, could you get me some medicine? Why would I go get you medicine for your headache? You don't have to be so rude.
I'm not doing it.
Come on, could you get me some medicine for my headache? It's because you keep thinking about ways to trick people.
Hence the headache.
Of course you're in pain! Ow, my head - Your headache's pretty bad? - I feel like my head's going to crack.
Really? Then step outside for a second.
You'll feel better right away! Is someone here? "Let's restore an upright living environment"? We'd like to talk to the mistress personally.
Mistress? Is that a person's name? (It's her mom!) Who are you guys? As you can see, I lead this group that promotes an upright living environment.
We want to have a conversation with the mistress.
Let us see her.
What's going on here? What is this? This building we're living in has been designated as "the best place to live" by the government two years in a row under my leadership as the residents' head.
We have class, you know.
In other words, it's no place for someone like you to live with the first wife, when you're the mistress! It destroys our image! I, as the leader of the residents' community, cannot allow it! What? Take it.
What do you think you're doing? Don't you guys know that this is illegal? Of course we know! What right do you have to do this to me? What right do you have to take my pictures and invade my property? Are you trying to go to jail or something? Wow, wow! The mistresses these days are so different from how they were before! They're smart! Yeah, so smart! Hey you, the mistress! Get out of this building now! - What? - I give you 15 days.
If you don't, these pictures will be all over the Internet! No matter how scary the law is, it's not as scary as housewives' feelings! This is why! I request that you leave this building in a timely manner.
Let's go on to Unit 804.
They have an issue with dogs.
They have 8 dogs! These dogs keep barking.
Please enjoy the rest of your day.
How's your headache? Need some medicine? (Woo Ah-jin) - She's here? - Yes.
She's in this hotel, according to her phone location.
She must be in the suite.
I'm sure that's what she wanted.
Every hallway has a camera.
We can't drag her out physically.
What do you plan to do? We'll need to have her come out on her own.
Give this to the front desk.
Tell them to give this to Park Ji-young in the suite.
Se? What did I tell you? I said she needed to go.
Why didn't you listen to me? Father I'm no longer your daughter-in-law.
You know something, Mr.
Kang? I was just going to assume this and never actually say it but You know Woo Ah-jin's case? Divorce, dividing up their possessions, and custody People normally combine all these issues as one case, no? Isn't that what we're supposed to do? Why did you want to get her divorced first? You went straight for it.
What are you talking about? You're being ridiculous.
It was intentional, wasn't it? To make her a divorcee first.
No! Stop it.
It'd just take too long if I combined all those issues together.
So it'd make you feel much better if she divorced as quickly as possible, right? I said no.
Oh yes, that's naturally the next step.
Oh and Mr.
Han.
I'd like to get a personal bodyguard.
Could you send me someone trustworthy? And one more thing Don't pull any tricks on me.
We're on the same boat, right? Yes, yes.
Hello? Let's go visit Dad first.
You go ahead.
Let me meet that new CEO first, Mr.
Han.
I'll look for a way to take back the company.
How are you gonna do that? What, you wanna just sit around and do nothing? I can't do that! I want to turn back the time.
Where are you going? I need to go to a tigers' den if I want to catch a tiger.
Digging up a rabbit hole won't help.
(I'll be waiting for you behind the hotel gate at 9 PM, Woo Ah-jin) What are you doing here? What do you think? I came to feed you this.
You're hungry, right? How'd you know I was hungry? Because I was hungry.
Aren't we like that? If I'm hungry, my mate must be hungry too.
He still didn't come to yet? But how come none of his children is here? How's the father? Wow, you came so quick? I just got divorced! You think I had time to come here? Didn't I just go through the same thing? What are you doing here? I'm leaving.
Let's go.
Let's eat outside.
Where are you going? You can't leave here! How about Father? Are you drunk? Have you been drinking, Mr.
Ahn Jae-suc? It's totally out of my responsibility to take care of your father in a hospital.
On top of that, how can you barely come now? He's been here alone the whole time, though he's got 3 children! Don't go, stay with me.
I'm having such a hard time, Honey.
Ah-jin, I'll break up with her.
- We - What a joke! What? A joke? He's lying right here.
Let's not do this in front of him.
But where are you guys going together? You two, by chance Are you guys dating? You say that because that's what you do! Why do they have to look so friendly to each other? - Where do you wanna go? - I should go home.
Then go on and eat this with Ji-hoo at home.
Thank you.
Come on in.
How much did you spend? Do you know how this company was built? This is absurd! Mr.
Ahn Tae-dong himself said that he won't give this company to any of his children.
- What? - He just wanted cash for it.
I think he just wanted to spend the rest of his life comfortably.
- So I mean - Imagine how bad it must've been! Do you want to take it back? Did you pass on the note to Park Ji-young? Yes, she left you a note in response.
Let's meet in an hour, Ah-jin.
It's cold out.
She rented a long-term suite in Saint Palace Hotel.
It's my money she's spending! Do we just go drag her out? Hey! You guys don't have any nice clothes? You think they'll just give you a room key if you go and get a room there like that? As long as we give them enough money! That's true.
- Is it good? - Yes, it's delicious.
Ji-hoo? Oh, never mind.
Let's just eat this today.
Tomorrow is another day, right? So you're saying you don't like today's sun, right? Kinda.
The sun is always the same.
You just can't see it sometimes when the clouds cover it.
Mom? Be strong.
Ji-hoo.
Don't hate Dad, OK? You're the one to speak.
I can't help it! I guess that's true.
I'm sorry.
I can't believe I'm saying these things as your mother.
You're still human, it's not like you become a god for being a mom or a dad.
You're the best, Mom! You get an "A+" from me! Well, not quite.
I have Jin-hee give you rides and stuff.
I'm pretty lenient when it comes to scores.
Yes, yes, I know! Ji-hoo? Grandpa had a stroke.
Really? What's gonna happen? Pray that he wakes up soon.
You said you feel connected with God, right? OK, I'll definitely pray for him.
But God hasn't been listening to my requests lately.
I prayed that you and Dad will get along again.
God must be very busy.
Try whining a little more.
OK, I will.
I hope Grandpa gets better soon.
We might not be able to live in such a big house anymore.
I don't think we can travel overseas every year, either.
Jin-hee might not be giving you rides anymore.
It doesn't matter to me.
I'm glad you're so strong.
Let's eat and go to bed early.
I have to leave after you sleep.
Back to the battlefield? Yes, the battle field.
Hello? What is it? Yeah, and what? We'll talk later at home.
Stop calling me.
What? End it? He wants to break up? I should be the one saying it, I can't believe he's saying it first.
Seong-hee! What should we do now? Yes.
OK, got it.
What do we do? We need to get to the 19th floor through the stairs.
Why? She's staying in the suite there.
Then why are we getting off here? Because of the cameras! Keep your voice down.
I'll wait for you behind the hotel gate.
Let's meet at 9 PM.
Let's meet an hour later, Ah-jin.
How sad! It won't go the way you want it to, Ah-jin.
Room service! Let's get out of here.
We'll let you live then.
Hold on, just hold on.
OK, I'll leave, that's fine.
Let me just finish my drink.
I'll go with you! You've never been inside a hotel suite before, right? You're supposed to drink nice wine and take selfies! Don't try to pull anything funny.
Let's just take one shot, then go! What is this? Who are you? Woo Ah-jin? I know her handwriting very well.
You're a college professor! How can you do something so low? Bok-ja You said you met her for the first time when you were looking for a caregiver.
But according to what we've found out You've already met her long before that.
You two had already met at the hotel Park Ji-young was staying in after she sold the company and took all the money.
Do you not remember, Ms.
Woo Ah-jin? Hello? Yes.
Thank you for all that you're doing.
Please finish things up, and I'll see you after.
OK.
Yes.
What do you think you're doing? We need to talk.
- Go ahead.
- I I'm leaving your husband.
OK, he's not even my husband anymore.
So give me back my paintings.
You said it's a form of an alimony to your husband.
I'll give you back your husband.
But instead, give me back my paintings.
Yoon Seong-hee.
If you can't understand the value of things, how can you ever be a great artist? What? When you and my husband started cheating, the value of my husband skyrockets.
Meaning, your price went through the roof, too.
But now, the market price has dropped.
The problem is that our deal was made while the price was at its highest.
You never bought real estate before? You can't get out of a contract after the prices have dropped! You can't, right? That makes no sense at all! How can people be treated the same as real estate? Of course they're different! How can you compare people to real estate? I'm merely making a comparison, matching to your level of understanding and sense of value, including sense of morals.
But I guess you still don't get it.
Compensation for psychological damage! Have you heard of it? My sense of pride that I've worked so hard to keep And my family You've destroyed them! But you think you can make up for it with your paintings? For you to pay up for that psychological damage You'd have to paint every second of your life, never even going to the bathroom! You know that? This is completely absurd.
That's how you feel now? I'm proud of it, I can say it to the world.
Where's the proof that your husband and I were cheating with each other? You'll planning on selling my paintings after I get famous and prices go up? I'll tell everyone in the media that you've stolen those paintings from me.
Look here, Artist Yoon Seong-hee! If you have a debt to pay off You can't change names of property ownership or embezzle money.
This is called a fraud.
So I sent you court documents, that I'm suing to stop that from happening to this house.
Same goes for your paintings.
I'm holding onto your paintings so that you won't do the same to your possessions, before my alimony matter is settled.
Does this make any sense to you? And did you say that I stole them? You're the one who stole, not me! You stole my husband! Just keep painting and live with Ahn Jae-suc for the rest of your life.
I allowed you to use the living room as your studio, didn't I? Don't you think there's a reason for that? Look here! I can't stand this any longer.
I can't either! Who do you think you are to keep coming back here? This is a fierce battle field that your daughter and I are engaged in a war over! You can't form a joint force! And also! If you ever mess up my room like this again, I'll spread your daughter's photos right away! What are you doing to us? Can't you tell? It's called threatening.
Get out of here at once! I love meeting up at night like this.
We can take as much as we want without anyone bothering us! Did Park Bok-ja really run away? Oh, it's nuts! It's a huge mess right now.
Shouldn't they call the cops? Cops? For what? She didn't commit any crime.
Mr.
Ahn gave all of his stock shares to her himself.
It was his decision to sell the company, too! - What? - There's no fraud or embezzlement.
He dug his own grave.
Why did he trust Park Bok-ja so much? He must've lost his mind in his later years.
I know, right? How come Yeo-wool isn't here yet? She got fired.
What do you mean? Well Her employer called her in out of nowhere.
Then she said, "What have you been saying to people outside?" "How do people know that my son's under investigation by the prosecutors?" "You talked about it at Pungseok-jung?" Come to think of it The owner of that place has been acting weird lately.
You barely noticed it? You better be careful with your words! She's closer to our employers than to us.
Oh no, where can I talk about all these juicy stuff now? But how did she find out when we're just talking among ourselves? What if she installed a bugging device? Oh, and have you heard about the golfer guy? What happened? You didn't beat him up, did you? Moon-tak It's really Funny.
What is? I went to go beat him to death.
Well, as much as I was beaten.
Then? But then Moon-tak It's really Funny.
What is? I went to go beat him to death.
Well, as much as I was beaten.
Then? But then - You're the driver? - Yes.
Don't do it, Bong-shik.
This isn't how you solve it.
You deserve this, your ribs should be broken too! I didn't do that to you! But you did sleep with my wife! Let's stop it now.
I am stopping with you.
But to your wife I feel so terrible.
Let's stop all of that.
Leave.
Let's never see each other again.
You're home.
- Have you heard? - About what? Dr.
Jang's wife's been hurt, she's in the hospital.
What? Which hospital? Dad, come on.
I knew this was gonna happen.
Dad, why'd you do that? How can you get this crazy over a woman? Why would you trust her? You know what? You deserve this.
Dad I I'm now divorced.
What do I do now? Do you want to take back the company? Why didn't you pick up? I was so worried! Her I'm gonna kill her for real.
You found her? You found out where she is? Ma'am, you're home now.
What should I do with these two? Who are you? I'm Park Ji-young's personal bodyguard.
What happened to him? Who? Go Bong-cheol? He's badly hurt, he's in a hospital.
Both of these two men have no identification, no nationality.
They can't be admitted to a hospital.
You'd have to take care of them.
Who are these people? Ahn Jae-gu knows them well.
Bye.
- Something's really odd - What is? This guy He told me where she was.
It was Secretary Oh.
Secretary Oh? But she Knew that I was coming.
What does that mean? Secretary Oh's on her side? I told you not to do anything! I look forward to your great work in the future, too.
Of course.
Please keep watching Jae-suc.
Don't worry.
But I feel bad that I told Jae-gu where you are.
You told me to do it, but He might come back.
I'm not scared of him at all.
You take care of yourself.
I'm sure he's suspicious of you by now.
Just tell him if he barks any threats at you.
Tell him that I'm paying you.
I'm just kidding, come on.
Ahn Jae-gu, Ahn Jae-hee, Ahn Jae-suc They're just idiots, all of them.
I feel bad for them sometimes.
I'll get going now.
Wait.
Is Mr.
Ahn not awake yet? No.
Who's there to take care of him? Ah-jin was there before.
She's So amazing, isn't she? What? Forget it.
You can go on now.
This is why you lent me the money when I opened up this shop, right? How does that make any sense? I had no idea this was going to happen.
"My beginnings will seem humble, but prosperous will my future be!" I'm sorry.
Come out.
Where are we going? You want to kill her, don't you? You trust me now? No.
I will if you kill her.
You really don't remember? At Saint Palace Hotel.
In a suite.
I Do.
I'm scared.
Come home.
I hate thunders.
Ah-jin's home with you.
There's nothing to be scared about.
My dad's in the hospital! Is Ah-jin not home? She's not.
She left somewhere.
This late at night? Where did she go? How am I supposed to know that? No, no Are they really dating? No, no Ah-jin wouldn't do that.
Wait! You never know what happens between a man and a woman! What was his phone number Hello? (Queen Bee) Why isn't she picking up? Why? Dad, I'm sorry.
I'll be right back! Was Ahn Tae-dong unconscious the whole time, before Park Ji-young came back? Yes.
He did not regain consciousness.
The eighth suspect is Oh Pung-suk.
She owns a members-only side dish place in Gangnam.
The place is called "Pungsuk-jeong.
" I assume that there was a complex emotional struggle between Park Ji-young and her.
She's the one to whom Park Ji-young sent her last text message.
Father! Her Where is she now? (Woman of Dignity) I won't be awake.
Let's keep this our secret.
It makes me weak when I see a woman I like.
Help me, Mr.
Han.
You can get a loan under his name, with his money or property as the capital.
They should all die, Father and her, too! I didn't think it'd become like this.
Please forgive me.
You like my wife? It's very difficult not to like an awesome woman like that, as a man! I do, very much so! Let's break up.
My life's been ruined ever since I met you! It's my life that's been ruined! Did you just hit me? Father was suffering from dementia, that's when he gave you the stocks.
Dementia? Your money, and this doctor's note.
This is the world.
You should fight a lie with a lie! You shouldn't have trusted me.
You shouldn't have liked me.
If you do anything funny, you'll die and I'll go to jail.
What is it that you want? Money.
Destruction awaits you in the end if you desire for things you cannot have.
I've worked too hard for this!
Sell it and keep the cash! Your stepmother took over the company? Their second son's the only one who knows.
But I'm sure he'd never imagined that we're selling the company.
Don't trust Park Bok-ja too much.
I've been watching it but I think she's gone too far.
We do have a complex process that we accept a new member into our group.
They're noble, and very intellectual.
- How much do you want? - 750 million dollars in cash.
Vice Chairperson sold off all her stocks to a private funding group.
We can't reach her anymore It's concussion.
No sign of rape or resisting.
She was hit twice with a dull object here.
Her blood vessels popped right away.
We have nowhere to keep the body, can you take it away? OK.
Who do you think did it? I thought it was her, but it's not.
That's the only thing I'm certain about.
Where should I take you to? - The Bangwon Hospital, please.
- OK.
The results from Nation Forensic Services come out in 3 weeks.
But the cause of death it concussion, hit by a dull object.
The approximate time of death is The first call was received that morning at 9:17 AM.
Next is the list of suspects.
Ahn Tae-dong.
The husband of Park Ji-young, and he's got the clearest motivation to murder her.
You're too busy that I never see you anymore.
There's no joy in my life anymore.
The company has to run well so you'll have peace of mind without stress.
I can't leave you.
- What are you talking about? - I trust you.
Why does that sound like you actually don't trust me? Ahn Jae-gu.
He's the oldest son of Ahn Tae-dong.
He had threatened Park Ji-young many times before she died.
He also has a criminal record for attempted murder.
He's our prime suspect.
I've killed a person before.
It's hard the first time, but it gets easier the next time, you know.
You think I'm a joke? You think you can throw out my wife and son? Ahn Jae-hee.
Ahn Tae-dong's daughter.
She was in the same location with Park on the day of the murder, but she lied that she wasn't.
Hey you, why don't you bring out some food for me? I'm here as a caregiver.
So what? Jae-hee, you're old enough now, aren't you? Stop whining.
What did you just say? Should I put soap all over the bathroom? So she'd slip, fall, and die? Park Joo-mi.
She's Ahn Tae-dong's daughter-in-law.
She has no alibi for the day of the murder.
She's another prime suspect based on others' testimonies.
They're putting on a show! He's gotta be connected with this woman.
She planned this whole thing! Be quiet! How can you come up with a ridiculous charge like that? If you really can't figure anything out, at least do something before you leave.
At least kill her before you leave.
Cheon Bang-soon.
She's from the same town as Park Ji-young, they worked at the same bar before.
I'll be your eyes and ears as you wished! I trust you.
You know that, right? What's your plan from here on? Don't ask me things like that.
And Call me "Ma'am" even when we're alone.
She feels betrayed at Park Ji-young's actions.
She testified that if no one had killed Park Ji-young, she would've.
We plan to put her through a polygraph test.
Gu Bong-cheol.
He was practically Park Ji-young's little brother in the orphanage.
He's gone missing, we put him in the wanted list.
Make her stop what she's doing.
She can't keep doing what she wants to.
Make her a cripple.
Han Min-gi.
He's the head of "MK Capital.
" It's a little hard to tell if he was on friendly terms with Park Ji-young or if they were enemies.
Hello, I'm Han Min-gi, the CEO of MK Capital.
We have a private investment funding group.
"The Seven Princesses.
" There's a phone record between them a little before she died.
So Detective Lee, Ms.
Woo Ah-jin is here.
(Episode 15: The suspects) The day Ahn Tae-dong had a stroke Were you with Park Ji-young? No.
I wasn't with her.
I heard Park Ji-young went to your divorce trial.
- And you called her to meet with you.
- Yes.
But she left after the trial.
I called her again after, but she never picked up.
How did you get in contact with her after? Based on your testimony so far Park Ji-young received all of the company stocks, then sold them to a private fund.
She took the cash and disappeared.
Then, why did Park Ji-young change her mind all of a sudden and came back home? Matisse and Kandinsky She came back because of them.
The divorce suit made by the claimant, Woo Ah-jin, is approved for the divorce as requested by her.
- Hello? - Ah-jin.
Ms.
Park, Mr.
Ahn had a stroke! Chairman's had a stroke.
I I'm not coming back.
Ma'am? Please Take good care of him.
Mr.
Kim, did you get ahold of Vice Chairperson? Oh, her I don't think she's coming back.
You knew it all along? You did, right? How much did she pay you? No, Secretary Oh, you're mistaken.
Mistaken? She told me that if I continued to report to her about his every move Then? If I continued to do that She said she'd raise my salary to another 1,000 dollars That's ridiculous.
It's true! Does this mean she betrayed Mr.
Ahn, sold off all the stocks and ran away? We all started to suspect each other.
We couldn't tell anymore What is true? What is a lie? Ms.
Cheon? What are you doing? I'm leaving today.
The main madam told me to leave.
That makes no sense.
You're leaving now that you're done achieving your goal? What? You're not going anywhere! - What are you doing? - Ma'am! Ma'am! This woman is running away! Look how thick-skinned she is! Where's Park Bok-ja? I don't know! - Ma'am! - Shut up! You knew it all along.
She sold off the company and ran away.
She sold it for 750 million dollars in cash! Tell me where she is.
Aren't you on your way to meet her? How much is she paying you? Ma'am.
I told Mr.
Ahn about Park Bok-ja, just like you told me to! How can you do this to me now? You think I don't know? You just go from one side to another.
Ms.
Cho saw that you two were talking alone! Why not? You wanted to have a child.
A change of heart.
I found a better way than giving birth to a child to take money.
What's your plan from here on? - Ms.
Cho? - Yes, Ma'am.
She's an accomplice.
Make sure she doesn't take one step out of this house! You're an opportunist! I can't believe this! What's going on? How much did you get? Get what? The company's sold, right? What? You bastard, you swallowed up the company by yourself? What are you talking about? Dad's business sold, you knew it, didn't you? What are you talking about, it's sold? All he did was to give his entire stock shares to her.
What, is there something more? She then sold her entire stock shares to a private funding group! What? - Chairperson approved it.
- Who'd you hear that from? The shareholders came a little earlier and fought earlier.
They're having a meeting soon.
How come no one's told me this? How can this happen? The company's sold? Who said it's OK? Look at this guy You're quite an actor! How can it make any sense that you didn't know? Look at this bastard, you're a shareholder too! You expect me to believe that they did this without saying a word to you? Really Why are you doing this to me? I just got divorced! That's not what's important right now! Give us our shares! I just got a divorce! A divorce! Don't do this to me! - Where's Dad? - He collapsed, he's in the hospital.
Whoa.
What? Father Ma'am.
You can't get ahold of her? She's not coming.
What happened to the company? Was it really sold? Chairman's entire stock shares have been sold.
Is it true that It was Mr.
Ahn's decision? Attorney Kim is talking to the shareholders right now.
This is a contract saying that Mr.
Ahn's entire stock shares are given to Park Bok-ja I mean, Park Ji-young.
We already know that.
But she sold off the company right away? To whom? My father didn't know that, right? It was his decision to sell the company.
No way, I don't believe this.
As you can see, MK Capital is now the biggest shareholder of Daesung Pulp.
Until we assign a professional CEO, I'll be the interim CEO for now.
Makes no sense! This makes no sense! Who says you can start running my dad's company? Who do you think you are? Our firm purchased Daesung through a legal method, and paid top dollars for it.
The payment was given to Park Ji-young, the biggest shareholder.
Park Ji-young? She changed her name.
She's crazy.
So I hereby announce that operation of Daesung Pulp is now managed by MK Capital.
That is all.
What? I knew nothing about this! How can this happen? You know where she is? I traced her phone location.
What do you want to do with Park Bok-ja? What should I do with her? Let's kill her.
She needs to be killed.
That's the only way.
- Hello? - Where are you? I'm on my way to get her.
I got her cellphone location.
What are you gonna do when you get her? We gotta get that money back at all cost.
I'll have her beaten, half-dead, then bring her.
Forget it.
I'll go instead.
Where is she? There's no need.
You've been exposed too much already.
And you failed every time.
I'll do it this time.
If I can't have her beaten just half-dead, I'll kill her instead.
Once she dies Who do you think is the legal heir then? It's gotta be your father again, right? We can take it back that way.
Where is this woman now? Jae-gu! Jae-gu! Did you guys really get a divorce? I feel terrible.
What a great job you've done! If Dad's hospitalized, who's there to take care of him? (Woo Ah-jin) Wow, is this it? "Ahn Jae-suc and Yoon Seong-hee agree on the following terms.
" "Ahn Jae-suc is the legal owner of this property.
" "Ahn Jae-suc agrees to have Yoon Seong-hee's name on document.
" The lawyer was right! How can you be so careless to sign something like this? He told me that it's for my own good! What do we do now? He seems like a fool but look, he's thought it through! What do we do? I'm sure he's got another copy for himself.
What if we find it and get rid of it? That's true! Then let me go to his wife's room and search for it.
The maid is still out there.
Lady? I have a terrible headache, could you get me some medicine? Why would I go get you medicine for your headache? You don't have to be so rude.
I'm not doing it.
Come on, could you get me some medicine for my headache? It's because you keep thinking about ways to trick people.
Hence the headache.
Of course you're in pain! Ow, my head - Your headache's pretty bad? - I feel like my head's going to crack.
Really? Then step outside for a second.
You'll feel better right away! Is someone here? "Let's restore an upright living environment"? We'd like to talk to the mistress personally.
Mistress? Is that a person's name? (It's her mom!) Who are you guys? As you can see, I lead this group that promotes an upright living environment.
We want to have a conversation with the mistress.
Let us see her.
What's going on here? What is this? This building we're living in has been designated as "the best place to live" by the government two years in a row under my leadership as the residents' head.
We have class, you know.
In other words, it's no place for someone like you to live with the first wife, when you're the mistress! It destroys our image! I, as the leader of the residents' community, cannot allow it! What? Take it.
What do you think you're doing? Don't you guys know that this is illegal? Of course we know! What right do you have to do this to me? What right do you have to take my pictures and invade my property? Are you trying to go to jail or something? Wow, wow! The mistresses these days are so different from how they were before! They're smart! Yeah, so smart! Hey you, the mistress! Get out of this building now! - What? - I give you 15 days.
If you don't, these pictures will be all over the Internet! No matter how scary the law is, it's not as scary as housewives' feelings! This is why! I request that you leave this building in a timely manner.
Let's go on to Unit 804.
They have an issue with dogs.
They have 8 dogs! These dogs keep barking.
Please enjoy the rest of your day.
How's your headache? Need some medicine? (Woo Ah-jin) - She's here? - Yes.
She's in this hotel, according to her phone location.
She must be in the suite.
I'm sure that's what she wanted.
Every hallway has a camera.
We can't drag her out physically.
What do you plan to do? We'll need to have her come out on her own.
Give this to the front desk.
Tell them to give this to Park Ji-young in the suite.
Se? What did I tell you? I said she needed to go.
Why didn't you listen to me? Father I'm no longer your daughter-in-law.
You know something, Mr.
Kang? I was just going to assume this and never actually say it but You know Woo Ah-jin's case? Divorce, dividing up their possessions, and custody People normally combine all these issues as one case, no? Isn't that what we're supposed to do? Why did you want to get her divorced first? You went straight for it.
What are you talking about? You're being ridiculous.
It was intentional, wasn't it? To make her a divorcee first.
No! Stop it.
It'd just take too long if I combined all those issues together.
So it'd make you feel much better if she divorced as quickly as possible, right? I said no.
Oh yes, that's naturally the next step.
Oh and Mr.
Han.
I'd like to get a personal bodyguard.
Could you send me someone trustworthy? And one more thing Don't pull any tricks on me.
We're on the same boat, right? Yes, yes.
Hello? Let's go visit Dad first.
You go ahead.
Let me meet that new CEO first, Mr.
Han.
I'll look for a way to take back the company.
How are you gonna do that? What, you wanna just sit around and do nothing? I can't do that! I want to turn back the time.
Where are you going? I need to go to a tigers' den if I want to catch a tiger.
Digging up a rabbit hole won't help.
(I'll be waiting for you behind the hotel gate at 9 PM, Woo Ah-jin) What are you doing here? What do you think? I came to feed you this.
You're hungry, right? How'd you know I was hungry? Because I was hungry.
Aren't we like that? If I'm hungry, my mate must be hungry too.
He still didn't come to yet? But how come none of his children is here? How's the father? Wow, you came so quick? I just got divorced! You think I had time to come here? Didn't I just go through the same thing? What are you doing here? I'm leaving.
Let's go.
Let's eat outside.
Where are you going? You can't leave here! How about Father? Are you drunk? Have you been drinking, Mr.
Ahn Jae-suc? It's totally out of my responsibility to take care of your father in a hospital.
On top of that, how can you barely come now? He's been here alone the whole time, though he's got 3 children! Don't go, stay with me.
I'm having such a hard time, Honey.
Ah-jin, I'll break up with her.
- We - What a joke! What? A joke? He's lying right here.
Let's not do this in front of him.
But where are you guys going together? You two, by chance Are you guys dating? You say that because that's what you do! Why do they have to look so friendly to each other? - Where do you wanna go? - I should go home.
Then go on and eat this with Ji-hoo at home.
Thank you.
Come on in.
How much did you spend? Do you know how this company was built? This is absurd! Mr.
Ahn Tae-dong himself said that he won't give this company to any of his children.
- What? - He just wanted cash for it.
I think he just wanted to spend the rest of his life comfortably.
- So I mean - Imagine how bad it must've been! Do you want to take it back? Did you pass on the note to Park Ji-young? Yes, she left you a note in response.
Let's meet in an hour, Ah-jin.
It's cold out.
She rented a long-term suite in Saint Palace Hotel.
It's my money she's spending! Do we just go drag her out? Hey! You guys don't have any nice clothes? You think they'll just give you a room key if you go and get a room there like that? As long as we give them enough money! That's true.
- Is it good? - Yes, it's delicious.
Ji-hoo? Oh, never mind.
Let's just eat this today.
Tomorrow is another day, right? So you're saying you don't like today's sun, right? Kinda.
The sun is always the same.
You just can't see it sometimes when the clouds cover it.
Mom? Be strong.
Ji-hoo.
Don't hate Dad, OK? You're the one to speak.
I can't help it! I guess that's true.
I'm sorry.
I can't believe I'm saying these things as your mother.
You're still human, it's not like you become a god for being a mom or a dad.
You're the best, Mom! You get an "A+" from me! Well, not quite.
I have Jin-hee give you rides and stuff.
I'm pretty lenient when it comes to scores.
Yes, yes, I know! Ji-hoo? Grandpa had a stroke.
Really? What's gonna happen? Pray that he wakes up soon.
You said you feel connected with God, right? OK, I'll definitely pray for him.
But God hasn't been listening to my requests lately.
I prayed that you and Dad will get along again.
God must be very busy.
Try whining a little more.
OK, I will.
I hope Grandpa gets better soon.
We might not be able to live in such a big house anymore.
I don't think we can travel overseas every year, either.
Jin-hee might not be giving you rides anymore.
It doesn't matter to me.
I'm glad you're so strong.
Let's eat and go to bed early.
I have to leave after you sleep.
Back to the battlefield? Yes, the battle field.
Hello? What is it? Yeah, and what? We'll talk later at home.
Stop calling me.
What? End it? He wants to break up? I should be the one saying it, I can't believe he's saying it first.
Seong-hee! What should we do now? Yes.
OK, got it.
What do we do? We need to get to the 19th floor through the stairs.
Why? She's staying in the suite there.
Then why are we getting off here? Because of the cameras! Keep your voice down.
I'll wait for you behind the hotel gate.
Let's meet at 9 PM.
Let's meet an hour later, Ah-jin.
How sad! It won't go the way you want it to, Ah-jin.
Room service! Let's get out of here.
We'll let you live then.
Hold on, just hold on.
OK, I'll leave, that's fine.
Let me just finish my drink.
I'll go with you! You've never been inside a hotel suite before, right? You're supposed to drink nice wine and take selfies! Don't try to pull anything funny.
Let's just take one shot, then go! What is this? Who are you? Woo Ah-jin? I know her handwriting very well.
You're a college professor! How can you do something so low? Bok-ja You said you met her for the first time when you were looking for a caregiver.
But according to what we've found out You've already met her long before that.
You two had already met at the hotel Park Ji-young was staying in after she sold the company and took all the money.
Do you not remember, Ms.
Woo Ah-jin? Hello? Yes.
Thank you for all that you're doing.
Please finish things up, and I'll see you after.
OK.
Yes.
What do you think you're doing? We need to talk.
- Go ahead.
- I I'm leaving your husband.
OK, he's not even my husband anymore.
So give me back my paintings.
You said it's a form of an alimony to your husband.
I'll give you back your husband.
But instead, give me back my paintings.
Yoon Seong-hee.
If you can't understand the value of things, how can you ever be a great artist? What? When you and my husband started cheating, the value of my husband skyrockets.
Meaning, your price went through the roof, too.
But now, the market price has dropped.
The problem is that our deal was made while the price was at its highest.
You never bought real estate before? You can't get out of a contract after the prices have dropped! You can't, right? That makes no sense at all! How can people be treated the same as real estate? Of course they're different! How can you compare people to real estate? I'm merely making a comparison, matching to your level of understanding and sense of value, including sense of morals.
But I guess you still don't get it.
Compensation for psychological damage! Have you heard of it? My sense of pride that I've worked so hard to keep And my family You've destroyed them! But you think you can make up for it with your paintings? For you to pay up for that psychological damage You'd have to paint every second of your life, never even going to the bathroom! You know that? This is completely absurd.
That's how you feel now? I'm proud of it, I can say it to the world.
Where's the proof that your husband and I were cheating with each other? You'll planning on selling my paintings after I get famous and prices go up? I'll tell everyone in the media that you've stolen those paintings from me.
Look here, Artist Yoon Seong-hee! If you have a debt to pay off You can't change names of property ownership or embezzle money.
This is called a fraud.
So I sent you court documents, that I'm suing to stop that from happening to this house.
Same goes for your paintings.
I'm holding onto your paintings so that you won't do the same to your possessions, before my alimony matter is settled.
Does this make any sense to you? And did you say that I stole them? You're the one who stole, not me! You stole my husband! Just keep painting and live with Ahn Jae-suc for the rest of your life.
I allowed you to use the living room as your studio, didn't I? Don't you think there's a reason for that? Look here! I can't stand this any longer.
I can't either! Who do you think you are to keep coming back here? This is a fierce battle field that your daughter and I are engaged in a war over! You can't form a joint force! And also! If you ever mess up my room like this again, I'll spread your daughter's photos right away! What are you doing to us? Can't you tell? It's called threatening.
Get out of here at once! I love meeting up at night like this.
We can take as much as we want without anyone bothering us! Did Park Bok-ja really run away? Oh, it's nuts! It's a huge mess right now.
Shouldn't they call the cops? Cops? For what? She didn't commit any crime.
Mr.
Ahn gave all of his stock shares to her himself.
It was his decision to sell the company, too! - What? - There's no fraud or embezzlement.
He dug his own grave.
Why did he trust Park Bok-ja so much? He must've lost his mind in his later years.
I know, right? How come Yeo-wool isn't here yet? She got fired.
What do you mean? Well Her employer called her in out of nowhere.
Then she said, "What have you been saying to people outside?" "How do people know that my son's under investigation by the prosecutors?" "You talked about it at Pungseok-jung?" Come to think of it The owner of that place has been acting weird lately.
You barely noticed it? You better be careful with your words! She's closer to our employers than to us.
Oh no, where can I talk about all these juicy stuff now? But how did she find out when we're just talking among ourselves? What if she installed a bugging device? Oh, and have you heard about the golfer guy? What happened? You didn't beat him up, did you? Moon-tak It's really Funny.
What is? I went to go beat him to death.
Well, as much as I was beaten.
Then? But then Moon-tak It's really Funny.
What is? I went to go beat him to death.
Well, as much as I was beaten.
Then? But then - You're the driver? - Yes.
Don't do it, Bong-shik.
This isn't how you solve it.
You deserve this, your ribs should be broken too! I didn't do that to you! But you did sleep with my wife! Let's stop it now.
I am stopping with you.
But to your wife I feel so terrible.
Let's stop all of that.
Leave.
Let's never see each other again.
You're home.
- Have you heard? - About what? Dr.
Jang's wife's been hurt, she's in the hospital.
What? Which hospital? Dad, come on.
I knew this was gonna happen.
Dad, why'd you do that? How can you get this crazy over a woman? Why would you trust her? You know what? You deserve this.
Dad I I'm now divorced.
What do I do now? Do you want to take back the company? Why didn't you pick up? I was so worried! Her I'm gonna kill her for real.
You found her? You found out where she is? Ma'am, you're home now.
What should I do with these two? Who are you? I'm Park Ji-young's personal bodyguard.
What happened to him? Who? Go Bong-cheol? He's badly hurt, he's in a hospital.
Both of these two men have no identification, no nationality.
They can't be admitted to a hospital.
You'd have to take care of them.
Who are these people? Ahn Jae-gu knows them well.
Bye.
- Something's really odd - What is? This guy He told me where she was.
It was Secretary Oh.
Secretary Oh? But she Knew that I was coming.
What does that mean? Secretary Oh's on her side? I told you not to do anything! I look forward to your great work in the future, too.
Of course.
Please keep watching Jae-suc.
Don't worry.
But I feel bad that I told Jae-gu where you are.
You told me to do it, but He might come back.
I'm not scared of him at all.
You take care of yourself.
I'm sure he's suspicious of you by now.
Just tell him if he barks any threats at you.
Tell him that I'm paying you.
I'm just kidding, come on.
Ahn Jae-gu, Ahn Jae-hee, Ahn Jae-suc They're just idiots, all of them.
I feel bad for them sometimes.
I'll get going now.
Wait.
Is Mr.
Ahn not awake yet? No.
Who's there to take care of him? Ah-jin was there before.
She's So amazing, isn't she? What? Forget it.
You can go on now.
This is why you lent me the money when I opened up this shop, right? How does that make any sense? I had no idea this was going to happen.
"My beginnings will seem humble, but prosperous will my future be!" I'm sorry.
Come out.
Where are we going? You want to kill her, don't you? You trust me now? No.
I will if you kill her.
You really don't remember? At Saint Palace Hotel.
In a suite.
I Do.
I'm scared.
Come home.
I hate thunders.
Ah-jin's home with you.
There's nothing to be scared about.
My dad's in the hospital! Is Ah-jin not home? She's not.
She left somewhere.
This late at night? Where did she go? How am I supposed to know that? No, no Are they really dating? No, no Ah-jin wouldn't do that.
Wait! You never know what happens between a man and a woman! What was his phone number Hello? (Queen Bee) Why isn't she picking up? Why? Dad, I'm sorry.
I'll be right back! Was Ahn Tae-dong unconscious the whole time, before Park Ji-young came back? Yes.
He did not regain consciousness.
The eighth suspect is Oh Pung-suk.
She owns a members-only side dish place in Gangnam.
The place is called "Pungsuk-jeong.
" I assume that there was a complex emotional struggle between Park Ji-young and her.
She's the one to whom Park Ji-young sent her last text message.
Father! Her Where is she now? (Woman of Dignity) I won't be awake.
Let's keep this our secret.
It makes me weak when I see a woman I like.
Help me, Mr.
Han.
You can get a loan under his name, with his money or property as the capital.
They should all die, Father and her, too! I didn't think it'd become like this.
Please forgive me.
You like my wife? It's very difficult not to like an awesome woman like that, as a man! I do, very much so! Let's break up.
My life's been ruined ever since I met you! It's my life that's been ruined! Did you just hit me? Father was suffering from dementia, that's when he gave you the stocks.
Dementia? Your money, and this doctor's note.
This is the world.
You should fight a lie with a lie! You shouldn't have trusted me.
