BONG-HUI: I'M ON MY WAY TO HANMU PARK
TO MEET GO CHAN-HO
This is what one poet said.
We're likely to know the start of things.
But we aren't likely to know
the end of them.
In my case, it was the opposite.
I had to experience the end of things
many times in my short life.
I hesitated to start this
because I was afraid of the end.
The moment I realized
my feelings for you
Don't fall for me.
I ran away from you
like a coward.
Bong-hui, I'm sorry.
Please stay
Please stay with me for five minutes.
And I failed
because
I started to have feelings
for you without realizing.
I just realized it late.
I wonder when and where it all began.
I realized it too late, and I can't
figure out where it all started.
Come back to me.
Come work for me.
The only thing
that I know now is
I'm sorry.
Do you mean it?
Yes, I do.
Let's see if you are telling the truth.
You are telling the truth.
Mr. Noh.
I can't get my head around it.
I can't stop this new beginning with you.
And it has now begun.
Bong-hui.
Hey.
You little
What was that? My gosh.
Where are you going?
I told you to pay for your mistake.
Do you think I was joking?
I can't do this anymore!
This is driving me crazy.
My gosh.
My goodness.
My gosh.
Wait a minute. Let's see.
Now
Four people have disappeared,
and three people will disappear.
I was just about to knock on your door.
What a coincidence.
I was just about to go see you anyway.
Oh, really?
Then shall we talk for a while?
Okay, let's do that.
This is refreshing and nice.
Right.
Bong-hui, what
-What happened earlier was--
-I'm pretty sure
it wasn't our first time.
Let's not mull over
something
that we've done several times already.
No.
That's not it.
I can't just let it go.
-Bong-hui, I--
-I'm really
trying my best to get over you,
just like you told me to.
No. Actually, I don't like you anymore.
I don't want to go back and forth
over a small accident like this.
And I don't plan to do so either.
I can't go through this.
I'm in a happy place right now.
I'm working at a company
where I can eat and sleep.
It feels like a dream to be working
at such a nice place.
I feel so lucky.
I really like my coworkers too.
I regret pushing you away.
I actually thank you for turning me down.
I mean it.
I want to turn back time.
That's what I was going to say.
I'm happy with our relationship right now.
I want it to last for a long time.
Goodnight.
Good job, Bong-hui.
My goodness.
My gosh, this is so tiring.
-There you go. Goodbye.
-Thank you.
My goodness.
My gosh, why did he park the car here?
Mr. Ham, that little
My goodness.
Let's see.
I need to call for a chauffeur service.
Oh, gosh.
My goodness.
Are you okay?
I only did my civic duty.
I heard that journalists
even write stories about
these kind of things,
but there's no need for that.
What's your name, sir?
Me?
I'm the chairman of Byeon and Partners
Well, I used to be the chairman.
Right now, I work at Byeon and
No, wait. It's Noh and Ji
Was it Noh and Ji?
Anyway, I'm a lawyer.
My name is Byeon Yeong-hui
Why? What are you doing?
Sir, I need to measure
your blood alcohol level.
I only had two glasses of beer.
I have no problem blowing into this.
Are you sure this isn't broken?
I knew it. You were drunk driving.
My gosh, I only had two glasses.
You'll need to come with me.
I don't mind going with you,
but I think this is broken.
MR. BYEON YEONG-HUI
I already decided to forget
about what happened. Don't dwell on it.
Please stop
Gosh.
You talked yesterday,
so I'll talk now.
Sorry? About what?
First off,
I want to apologize.
Pardon?
I took too long to realize
how I feel about you,
and I was scared too.
This will sound like an excuse,
but I was afraid that I might not be
good enough for you.
Are you done with that?
Oh, yes. I'm done.
Great, thanks.
Because it took me so long,
you seem to have given up
your feelings for me.
All right. I totally respect that.
What I'm trying to say is
I'm not asking you to change your mind
or like me again.
That's not what I'm trying to tell you.
Since I respect your decision,
you should respect mine as well.
So in other words
let me like you.
Just leave me be.
I won't stress you out.
I'll never interfere
with your peaceful life.
Things can stay like this. Then one day,
if you feel like it,
change your mind
and like me again.
I'll be waiting.
You can take your time.
Oh, it looks like you've forgotten
to breathe again.
Breathe.
There you go.
I left the cup here.
Gosh.
I'm the one who needs to breathe.
What should we do with the adulterer
who's suing for alimony?
It's a small case.
Right.
Actually, I think it'll be good
if Ms. Eun takes it on.
Shall we do this meeting
without those two?
I wonder what happened
in a matter of a day.
Don't you want to dig it up?
What happened was--
-Not you, Mr. Byeon.
-Gosh, I don't want to know.
I became a hero.
A hero?
I saved someone's life.
But
But?
Are you sure this isn't broken?
I knew it. You were drunk driving.
God damn cops!
I think it's extremely unfair.
I sent my driver home early
because something came up at his home.
When I was about to call
a chauffeur service,
the accident happened, and I stopped it.
Do you have dash cam footage?
It was off. My driver
must have turned the camera off.
I'm serious.
Is there a phone record with a chauffeur?
Well, that's
I was about to call the service.
So no.
You know DUI
is kind of like killing someone, right?
Hey, Ms. Lack of Evidence!
I think it's like an attempted murder.
Exactly. You have no right to call
me Ms. Lack of Evidence.
Why were you sitting
in the driver's seat to begin with?
Because it was hot. I just wanted
to turn on the air conditioning.
You were idling the engine too?
You'd be fined
if you do it for over five minutes.
You all know, right?
He said you can call him your son
if he drinks again.
I don't want a son like him.
I feel bad for you.
I'll file for an administrative appeal
and go to trial.
Just accept the punishment.
-What?
-It's just license revocation
and fine, so why would you go to trial?
It's just a slap on the wrist!
Those with important social status
should receive heavier punishment.
As an example.
-Someone like him.
-That's what I'm saying.
You ungrateful brats.
You guys are betrayers.
All right. As usual, this is our cue
to wrap up the meeting.
Gosh. Hey, you won't help me?
Hey. Guys!
Gosh, these brats.
Goodness.
The meeting is over.
Gosh.
Jeez.
Sorry? You want me to find out what
Jung Hyeon-su was up to last night?
I keep thinking that it's strange.
What
Well
Something urgent came up.
We will have to reschedule.
It was weird timing
to receive that text message.
The phone is turned off.
Please leave a message
His phone got turned off right away.
And most of all,
the air at the scene was odd.
The air?
Yes, I can't explain it in words.
It's just this feeling I got.
My hunch, you know.
Investigations must be based on science.
Right, you always go on about science.
That's why I'm asking you to see
if you can find evidence.
So you're saying something isn't right
with Jung Hyeon-su, right?
Yes. Regardless of the reason,
he did lie. He lied to me.
And he made a fool of Bong-hui
even though she trusted him.
Right. Everything is about
Ms. Eun, isn't it?
I hope that this feeling I'm getting
is nothing
and that I've been worried for nothing.
I hope that Jung Hyeon-su is a good person
who was falsely accused.
Like how Bong-hui believes.
Right, I hear you.
Bong-hui.
Mr. Bang, look at those two.
What could they possibly have
to talk about all the time?
Why are they always together?
They're always there.
Exactly.
They're always laughing together
and chatting away.
I'm here for today's counseling session.
Aren't you here because you're curious?
Well, half and half?
I was totally caught off guard.
By Ji-uk?
Yes.
It hurts so much,
yet it makes me very happy
at the same time.
It also makes me so mad.
I'm not really following.
Love is all about timing.
I know that. I know that very well.
My timing is good with most things,
but not with that.
What does he want me to do now?
What a joke. It's too late.
I'm saying I will not be swayed.
What a nice day.
I'm on my way to meet Go Chan-ho
as I couldn't see him yesterday.
So?
I thought you'd be interested.
Never mind if you're not.
You aren't interested?
I'm very much interested.
Let me like you.
Just leave me be.
I'll be waiting.
You can take your time.
Gosh, stop. Stop thinking about that.
What did you say?
Why? Did I do something wrong?
So you like me? You're sorry
that you realized it late?
Yes, Bong-hui.
Wait all you want.
I won't change my mind.
I won't because it was so unfair.
I went through such a hard time.
Now you like me?
It's too late.
You realized it too late.
I'm sorry.
I'll make you suffer as much as I have.
-Okay.
-Don't even answer me.
I hate you so much.
I hate you even more
since you are doing as I said.
Then what should I do?
Anyway,
you will have to really wait for me
this time.
It will be longer than seven minutes
this time.
You might get old and die
while you wait for me.
-I understand.
-I'm not joking.
I know.
Hold on.
By the way,
starting now, change your attitude.
Since this is about work,
I have the upper hand.
Did you get that?
Yes, Mr. Noh
Bong-hui, hurry.
I'm going.
He's on leave?
He said something urgent came up.
Call me anytime.
I'll help you if there's anything
I can do for you.
I mentioned that I have to use
some of my unused vacation days.
I need to use them right now.
I understand.
Thank you.
Did he expect
he'd need to go on a vacation?
It seems like it, right?
As expected, Go Chan-ho isn't home.
He isn't.
Then
No, it's really hard
to break into that house.
We need an excavator
to make a hole to get in.
Bong-hui, I think you are capable
of doing anything. Aren't you?
-You are.
-Are you here to look at the house?
This is my building.
You two look like newlyweds.
Are you looking for your marital house?
-Yes.
-Yes.
The guy who lives here gave me his
permission
to look at the house
even when he's not home.
Take your time to take a look.
When was this unit put on the market?
Well, let me think. It was
around May 10th or 20th.
It's before the murder of Chef Yang.
Who?
No, it's nothing.
Can we take a look around it
privately? Just the two of us?
We just need to discuss
some private matters.
Since we're newlyweds, we must talk
about where the bed goes and stuff.
You look so intimate with each other
just like newlyweds.
Fine. I'll leave you two alone.
Look at it in private.
Let's look at it in private.
Where on earth could he have gone?
I don't know.
Could he have run away or something?
Or could he have gone somewhere
to take care of something?
If none of these are correct,
could he have gone on a trip?
It's plausible. Or
he could already have disappeared.
Sorry?
Nothing.
What?
What is this?
Mr. Noh.
We went to Go Chan-ho's place, but
There was nothing.
You didn't find anything?
No. Oh, right.
I'm not sure if this would be useful,
but I brought it just in case. Here.
It won't be easy, but I'll look into it.
I'd really appreciate it.
Like I said, it won't be easy.
I feel like my hands are tied
now that I have no governmental power.
Me too.
Will you not tell Ms. Eun
about Jung Hyeon-su?
I was going to tell her,
but I've decided to wait on it
as nothing has been confirmed yet.
SEONHO DISTRICT PROSECUTORS' OFFICE
My son.
It's a case file on Jang Hui-jun's case.
ESTIMATED TIME OF DEATH
MIDNIGHT, MAY 11, 2015
I'd like the two of you
to reinvestigate the case.
Reinvestigate it?
I've tried so hard to come to terms
with the verdict of the trial.
I went to the scene numerous times
to look for different possibilities.
I wondered if someone who was
holding grudges against me
killed my son for revenge.
But it wasn't that.
I thought about it over and over
and it has got to be her.
There's no evidence that tells otherwise.
I read the case file.
There were two weapons. One was
That's right.
I fabricated the evidence.
I used tricks
in order to catch Eun Bong-hui.
Then what about the other one?
I'm not sure how this will sound,
but I think I know
what you're thinking, sir.
Prosecutor Noh Ji-uk.
He was the prosecutor in charge
of the case.
You're probably thinking
that he placed it on the scene
just like what you did.
In order to save Eun Bong-hui,
he must've planted
the evidence on the scene
just like I did.
That's my conclusion.
Ji-uk would not do such a thing, sir.
If that's what you think,
go ahead and prove it to me.
I'm saying you should try to find
something new, no matter what it is.
What?
Mr. Byeon.
Say it, you brat.
Shall I
help you with the trial?
Ms. Lack of Evidence, will you?
I won't help you
if you keep calling me like that.
All right, Eun Bong-hui.
Ms. Eun.
All right, Ms. Eun. Help me out.
I feel that it's so unfair.
My insurance won't cover if this is a DUI.
Did you know that?
Everyone, please come.
CHORE BOARD: DO THE DISHES,
BUY COFFEE, TAKE OUT TRASH
This week's designator for dishes,
coffee, and trash is
you, Ms. Eun.
I'd like to volunteer.
Damn it.
Did something happen?
LAWYER EUN BONG-HUI
Drink up.
Are you done with that?
I'll clean it up.
-I'll put it away for you.
-Thank you.
Ms. Eun, are you done?
I'm working on the files.
Let me see your hands.
My hands?
Eat them while you work.
Thank you.
LAWYER EUN BONG-HUI
Were you running Widmark's formula?
-I see.
-Yes.
This formula is to calculate someone's
blood alcohol content
after driving under the influence.
So
Make sure you check this part.
Can you do it?
Drink some soda. You might choke.
Mom.
I think I'm in my golden days now.
Golden days?
You know how people have their golden days
like when they are in their prime.
Really? Why do you think so?
Did something spark between you
and the CEO of your firm?
Is it going well?
It's not that. It's just
I'm so happy
that all of my colleagues adore me.
I'm so happy that it sometimes scares me.
I'm afraid that
this might all be taken away from me.
Pathetic.
When you had something, you didn't
let people take it away from you.
It's just that you never had
a lot of things growing up.
Really?
She looks like it.
Mom, by the way, why do I get the feeling
your boss is always eavesdropping
our conversation?
Is it just me?
Let her be.
It's because her life is boring.
Yeong-sun!
The lawyers
made several visits.
They also met the couple in the photo.
I see.
So did your alibi hold up?
Yes.
It's all thanks to you.
-I'll get going now.
-Bye.
What's going on?
Am I being suspected?
Mr. Noh.
Mr. Noh.
Mr. Noh?
Mr. Noh, are you all right?
I heard you all the way
from the first floor.
Bong-hui.
Bong-hui, you are okay, right?
You are safe, right?
What? What is it?
Did I die in your nightmare or something?
I don't know.
I don't know who it was.
Someone
got hurt.
I
I'm sorry.
I'll get going.
Get some sleep.
I'll stay with you just for five minutes.
Don't get the wrong idea.
This is love for mankind.
I won't fall for you no matter
how cute you look sleeping.
COURT IN SESSION
The defendant finished drinking at 9 p.m.
The time of the accident
was 9:35 p.m. The police officer
who arrived at the scene
conducted the sobriety test at 9:45pm.
The sobriety test was conducted
at the time when the blood alcohol
content was on the rise.
Hence, it can't be concluded
the blood alcohol content when driving
was over 0.05 percent.
DEFENSE COUNSEL, DEFENDAN
Darn it.
Are you here to see Bong-hui?
I'm here for Mr. Byeon.
He's like a father figure to me.
I'm here to see
our youngest lawyer, Bong-hui.
Let's see how good she is. Shall we?
First of all, the grounds of the claim
that he finished drinking at 9 p.m.
seem to be lacking.
He didn't have any acquaintances
who joined him.
Yes, Your Honor, so I've submitted
the affidavit of the bartender
that he finished drinking at 9 p.m.
and his credit card statement.
I see.
Do you have evidence
to prove it was a justifiable act?
Well.
Unfortunately, due to the malfunction
of the dash cam,
we don't have any proof.
However, we are looking
for an eyewitness of the incident.
I understand.
I have a bad feeling about this.
-Prosecution.
-So do I.
Proceed with your sentencing.
Please punish the defendant with
a fine of 3 million won.
Lastly, does the defendant have
any last words he'd like to say?
Yes, Your Honor.
I agree that drinking and driving
is a very wrong thing to do.
Therefore, I deeply regret
what I have done.
However, it is true
that I only had two glasses of beer.
And I only drove out of the
good will to save a person's life.
Please take that into consideration.
Thank you.
Here is the verdict.
The defendant will have to pay
a fine of 3 million won.
If the defendant refuses to pay the fine,
every 100,000 won will be
converted into one day,
and thus, he will be imprisoned
in a workhouse for 30 days.
What did you say?
Hey, Ms. Lack of Evidence!
You used me like a slave.
And you lost?
You little Stop right there.
Hey!
Gosh, he's really angry.
Bong-hui took it too far.
She could've won
if it was a different judge.
Ji-hae, I'm sure you already know that
I'm quite pretty.
Yes.
That's what I thought
when we weren't so close.
What?
Never mind.
But you see, Ji-uk and Eun-hyeok
were also really handsome.
I see.
I used to feel proud when the three of us
hung out together.
People used to stare at us.
Oh, I see.
But
I hurt them both
and abandoned them.
I must've been crazy.
That's what happens when you have it all.
I can't argue with you
because you're right.
Right now,
she must be the one who has it all.
You'll only embarrass yourself
if you go out right now.
You'll regret it tomorrow.
Let go.
Gosh, this is so embarrassing.
Hey, you guys.
Ms. Cha?
Don't even talk to me.
You guys
You guys are so
Let's go.
She looked really drunk.
Don't you think so?
You don't need to worry.
He's right. She wasn't that drunk.
She has a high alcohol tolerance.
-She can drink for a couple more hours.
-Of course.
Well, what I meant was that
you don't need to worry about her
too much.
That's what I was trying to tell you.
He's right. That was the point.
He meant nothing else.
I didn't say anything.
I was just thinking of hitting
back of her head if she was drunk
because she always glares at me.
Will you be okay?
Go home safely, Yu-jeong.
Okay, bye.
It's hard to track where Go Chan-ho
went on the day he disappeared.
I'm still checking the dash cams
of the cars
that were parked in the alley
outside of his house.
But there are a few blind spots,
and it's not clear since it was dark.
Oh, I see.
Then
did you look into the people
in this photo?
I've started to go through
Go Chan-ho's alumni.
I know
who bought you the shoes.
That's exactly what Go Chan-ho said
to Bong-hui.
Then
do you think the person
who bought the shoes
is in this photo?
Or is it Jung Hyeon-su?
Ji-uk.
Come over here and look at this.
This just in.
The murder weapon presumably
used to kill Chef Yang
was found last night in a car
parked on a roadside in Chuncheon,
The assumed culprit is Mr. Go,
and it's more shocking
because he used to work in forensics.
It seems like he ran away
after abandoning the car
on a remote roadside
along with the weapon.
Meanwhile, the fact that
Mr. Go was in charge of the
forensic examination of the scene
will shock the public even more.
The police say they will do their best
to find and arrest Mr. Go.
The police of Goyang and Chuncheon
are back-tracking
the route that Mr. Go used.
They're doing their best
to track his whereabouts.
Ms. Eun, you're here.
Have you been well?
Yes, of course.
What's with you two?
Is there something I don't know about?
Hey, guys.
Where's Ms. Lack of Evidence,
the girl who lost
my case?
She's been slipping out
whenever she has the chance.
I haven't been able to see her
for a while now.
I miss her so dearly.
I guess she's not here.
Where did she escape to?
My goodness.
Goodness.
What?
Where is Bong-hui, really?
What is it that you want to tell me?
Well
I actually lied to you about something.
You lied to me?
Yes.
My alibi.
To be honest,
I couldn't remember exactly
where I was and what I did that day.
But if I didn't tell you
my whereabouts in detail,
I felt like you wouldn't believe me. So
I lied to you.
May I ask
why you're telling me this right now?
When everyone in the world attacked me
and called me a murderer,
you're the only person
who believed in what I said.
I'm telling you this
because I want to be truthful to you.
I'm sorry.
What about Jung Hyeon-su?
What are you looking into?
Well
You don't need to know about it yet.
What is it? Why are you saying
I don't need to know it yet?
I just feel a little suspicious.
That's all.
Thank you
for being honest with me.
I can go by myself.
I'll escort you to your car.
Okay, then.
Sir!
Hey, long time no see.
How have you been?
Good. By the way,
I was planning to call you.
Really?
Yes. Until when do you plan to
leave that banner up there?
It'll only cost you money.
For just a little bit more.
I think that's fine.
Thank you for helping me.
I finished it quickly thanks to you.
Are you the witness by any chance?
Are you calling the police?
Thanks anyway.
-Didn't you get the report?
-A report?
Yes, someone said he'd report something.
Who? Who said that?
I don't know who he is.
It was a young man.
When was it?
Was it at the beginning of this spring?
I saw him while switching the banners.
Was it before he sent me the shoes?
By any chance, do you remember
what he looked like?
Anything will help.
Do you remember anything?
I'm not sure.
It's not easy to remember
someone whom you met just once.
I don't even remember
what I had for breakfast today.
Then I should test him.
Let's see if he
remembers me or not.
If he remembers me
Is he a friend of yours?
No, no.
Excuse me for a second.
Yes, Mr. Noh.
I'm with Hyeon-su now.
Well If that's the case,
bring him here.
We now know the real culprit anyway.
We should have dinner with him.
All right.
Don't make any stops.
Come here right away.
Okay, I will.
Mr. Noh. is saying
we should have dinner together.
Oh, really?
Sure, let's do that.
Sir, please give me a call
if you remember anything.
I'll be in touch too. I'll see you soon.
All right.
-Have a good day.
-You too. Bye.
CASE REPOR
ON THE 2015 MURDER OF JANG HUI-JUN
I think that the chief's speculation
is actually quite plausible.
Even before they met as a mentor
and a probationary officer,
there was something
between Noh Ji-uk and Bong-hui.
I heard they were spotted
meeting at a hotel as well.
There were bad rumors about her. And
"you're dirty, but you're so pretty."
He used to make such
affectionate remarks too.
He did?
Then Bong-hui became a murder suspect.
He might have been willing to do anything
to get her acquitted.
-We're here.
-Welcome.
-Hello, have you been well?
-Of course.
-Please make yourself at home.
-All right.
-Hello.
-Oh, hello.
Can I give you a hand with it?
Why? Are you skilled with knives?
Gosh, what are you talking about?
You're our guest.
Please make yourself at home.
What's the matter?
-What is it?
-Why didn't you tell me?
-What?
-Jung Hyeon-su
About Hyeon-su. Why didn't you tell me?
Oh, well That's
That was because
Nothing was really confirmed, so--
Something seems off about him,
and he did lie.
You were sure about those things.
Yes, you're right.
Did you want me
to feel like an idiot or what?
I'm so disappointed in you.
Gosh, it's not like that.
That's really not what I intended.
You see, there wasn't really
anything concrete I could tell you.
I was worried
you might beat yourself up like crazy.
You kept what I should know from me.
Did you really think
you were doing it for my sake?
I'm sorry. I made a mistake.
Yes, you did.
Just a second. How
How did you know?
Hyeon-su beat you to it.
He told me that he lied about his alibi.
He beat us to it?
All right.
Then what's your thought on him?
I don't know. I'll say I'm neutral.
But what's bothering me is
the fact that there must be a reason
you're suspicious of him.
All right.
Hey.
Is there anything I can help you with?
No.
Just go plate the food.
-That's fine too.
-Yes.
Now, we have another guest.
I'm here for work.
Don't look at me like that.
-My gosh.
-Oh, my.
What do you say? How's the food?
Everything looks so delicious.
-I'm glad to hear that.
-I'm good with everything,
but putting tomatoes in bulgogi is
Then don't eat it.
Thank you for the food.
You're welcome. I hope you all enjoy it.
Oh, about the forensic officer,
Go Chan-ho
Do you know that he's now being chased
by the police
as the suspect
of the murder of Yang Jin-wu?
Yes, I saw it on the news.
I see, you saw it.
You don't know him personally, do you?
No, not at all.
I was so surprised to hear
that the killer is a police officer.
Congratulations.
Those who are
acquitted for lack of evidence
continue to look or get treated
like culprits
in the absence of other suspects
or real culprits.
Please don't worry.
The prosecution hasn't been able
to catch the real killer
but I'll be sure to catch him
and bring him to you.
I came here to tell you this.
Bong-hui, I'll be reinvestigating
your ex-boyfriend Jang Hui-jun's case.
I'm not sure if I could find anything now,
but I'll try to dig things up.
From the crime scene to anyone involved,
I'll go through them all.
The killer might be
in this house right now.
Anyhow, what do you think
is going on with Go Chan-ho?
Would he really be on the run?
I'm not sure. I'm really curious too.
We should try to sound out Jung Hyeon-su.
That's the only thing we can do now.
Don't you think the house feels so empty,
now that everyone is gone?
Not really. I like how quiet it is.
Mr. Ji, my husband died.
What happened?
Please rethink your decision
just once more.
Hey, Eun-hyeok. Aren't you
hiding something from me?
I'm going to give my client
whatever she wants!
Will you be able to handle
the consequences?
Subtitle translation by Daniel Lee
BONG-HUI: I'M ON MY WAY TO HANMU PARK
TO MEET GO CHAN-HO
This is what one poet said.
We're likely to know the start of things.
But we aren't likely to know
the end of them.
In my case, it was the opposite.
I had to experience the end of things
many times in my short life.
I hesitated to start this
because I was afraid of the end.
The moment I realized
my feelings for you
Don't fall for me.
I ran away from you
like a coward.
Bong-hui, I'm sorry.
Please stay
Please stay with me for five minutes.
And I failed
because
I started to have feelings
for you without realizing.
I just realized it late.
I wonder when and where it all began.
I realized it too late, and I can't
figure out where it all started.
Come back to me.
Come work for me.
The only thing
that I know now is
I'm sorry.
Do you mean it?
Yes, I do.
Let's see if you are telling the truth.
You are telling the truth.
Mr. Noh.
I can't get my head around it.
I can't stop this new beginning with you.
And it has now begun.
Bong-hui.
Hey.
You little
What was that? My gosh.
Where are you going?
I told you to pay for your mistake.
Do you think I was joking?
I can't do this anymore!
This is driving me crazy.
My gosh.
My goodness.
My gosh.
Wait a minute. Let's see.
Now
Four people have disappeared,
and three people will disappear.
I was just about to knock on your door.
What a coincidence.
I was just about to go see you anyway.
Oh, really?
Then shall we talk for a while?
Okay, let's do that.
This is refreshing and nice.
Right.
Bong-hui, what
-What happened earlier was--
-I'm pretty sure
it wasn't our first time.
Let's not mull over
something
that we've done several times already.
No.
That's not it.
I can't just let it go.
-Bong-hui, I--
-I'm really
trying my best to get over you,
just like you told me to.
No. Actually, I don't like you anymore.
I don't want to go back and forth
over a small accident like this.
And I don't plan to do so either.
I can't go through this.
I'm in a happy place right now.
I'm working at a company
where I can eat and sleep.
It feels like a dream to be working
at such a nice place.
I feel so lucky.
I really like my coworkers too.
I regret pushing you away.
I actually thank you for turning me down.
I mean it.
I want to turn back time.
That's what I was going to say.
I'm happy with our relationship right now.
I want it to last for a long time.
Goodnight.
Good job, Bong-hui.
My goodness.
My gosh, this is so tiring.
-There you go. Goodbye.
-Thank you.
My goodness.
My gosh, why did he park the car here?
Mr. Ham, that little
My goodness.
Let's see.
I need to call for a chauffeur service.
Oh, gosh.
My goodness.
Are you okay?
I only did my civic duty.
I heard that journalists
even write stories about
these kind of things,
but there's no need for that.
What's your name, sir?
Me?
I'm the chairman of Byeon and Partners
Well, I used to be the chairman.
Right now, I work at Byeon and
No, wait. It's Noh and Ji
Was it Noh and Ji?
Anyway, I'm a lawyer.
My name is Byeon Yeong-hui
Why? What are you doing?
Sir, I need to measure
your blood alcohol level.
I only had two glasses of beer.
I have no problem blowing into this.
Are you sure this isn't broken?
I knew it. You were drunk driving.
My gosh, I only had two glasses.
You'll need to come with me.
I don't mind going with you,
but I think this is broken.
MR. BYEON YEONG-HUI
I already decided to forget
about what happened. Don't dwell on it.
Please stop
Gosh.
You talked yesterday,
so I'll talk now.
Sorry? About what?
First off,
I want to apologize.
Pardon?
I took too long to realize
how I feel about you,
and I was scared too.
This will sound like an excuse,
but I was afraid that I might not be
good enough for you.
Are you done with that?
Oh, yes. I'm done.
Great, thanks.
Because it took me so long,
you seem to have given up
your feelings for me.
All right. I totally respect that.
What I'm trying to say is
I'm not asking you to change your mind
or like me again.
That's not what I'm trying to tell you.
Since I respect your decision,
you should respect mine as well.
So in other words
let me like you.
Just leave me be.
I won't stress you out.
I'll never interfere
with your peaceful life.
Things can stay like this. Then one day,
if you feel like it,
change your mind
and like me again.
I'll be waiting.
You can take your time.
Oh, it looks like you've forgotten
to breathe again.
Breathe.
There you go.
I left the cup here.
Gosh.
I'm the one who needs to breathe.
What should we do with the adulterer
who's suing for alimony?
It's a small case.
Right.
Actually, I think it'll be good
if Ms. Eun takes it on.
Shall we do this meeting
without those two?
I wonder what happened
in a matter of a day.
Don't you want to dig it up?
What happened was--
-Not you, Mr. Byeon.
-Gosh, I don't want to know.
I became a hero.
A hero?
I saved someone's life.
But
But?
Are you sure this isn't broken?
I knew it. You were drunk driving.
God damn cops!
I think it's extremely unfair.
I sent my driver home early
because something came up at his home.
When I was about to call
a chauffeur service,
the accident happened, and I stopped it.
Do you have dash cam footage?
It was off. My driver
must have turned the camera off.
I'm serious.
Is there a phone record with a chauffeur?
Well, that's
I was about to call the service.
So no.
You know DUI
is kind of like killing someone, right?
Hey, Ms. Lack of Evidence!
I think it's like an attempted murder.
Exactly. You have no right to call
me Ms. Lack of Evidence.
Why were you sitting
in the driver's seat to begin with?
Because it was hot. I just wanted
to turn on the air conditioning.
You were idling the engine too?
You'd be fined
if you do it for over five minutes.
You all know, right?
He said you can call him your son
if he drinks again.
I don't want a son like him.
I feel bad for you.
I'll file for an administrative appeal
and go to trial.
Just accept the punishment.
-What?
-It's just license revocation
and fine, so why would you go to trial?
It's just a slap on the wrist!
Those with important social status
should receive heavier punishment.
As an example.
-Someone like him.
-That's what I'm saying.
You ungrateful brats.
You guys are betrayers.
All right. As usual, this is our cue
to wrap up the meeting.
Gosh. Hey, you won't help me?
Hey. Guys!
Gosh, these brats.
Goodness.
The meeting is over.
Gosh.
Jeez.
Sorry? You want me to find out what
Jung Hyeon-su was up to last night?
I keep thinking that it's strange.
What
Well
Something urgent came up.
We will have to reschedule.
It was weird timing
to receive that text message.
The phone is turned off.
Please leave a message
His phone got turned off right away.
And most of all,
the air at the scene was odd.
The air?
Yes, I can't explain it in words.
It's just this feeling I got.
My hunch, you know.
Investigations must be based on science.
Right, you always go on about science.
That's why I'm asking you to see
if you can find evidence.
So you're saying something isn't right
with Jung Hyeon-su, right?
Yes. Regardless of the reason,
he did lie. He lied to me.
And he made a fool of Bong-hui
even though she trusted him.
Right. Everything is about
Ms. Eun, isn't it?
I hope that this feeling I'm getting
is nothing
and that I've been worried for nothing.
I hope that Jung Hyeon-su is a good person
who was falsely accused.
Like how Bong-hui believes.
Right, I hear you.
Bong-hui.
Mr. Bang, look at those two.
What could they possibly have
to talk about all the time?
Why are they always together?
They're always there.
Exactly.
They're always laughing together
and chatting away.
I'm here for today's counseling session.
Aren't you here because you're curious?
Well, half and half?
I was totally caught off guard.
By Ji-uk?
Yes.
It hurts so much,
yet it makes me very happy
at the same time.
It also makes me so mad.
I'm not really following.
Love is all about timing.
I know that. I know that very well.
My timing is good with most things,
but not with that.
What does he want me to do now?
What a joke. It's too late.
I'm saying I will not be swayed.
What a nice day.
I'm on my way to meet Go Chan-ho
as I couldn't see him yesterday.
So?
I thought you'd be interested.
Never mind if you're not.
You aren't interested?
I'm very much interested.
Let me like you.
Just leave me be.
I'll be waiting.
You can take your time.
Gosh, stop. Stop thinking about that.
What did you say?
Why? Did I do something wrong?
So you like me? You're sorry
that you realized it late?
Yes, Bong-hui.
Wait all you want.
I won't change my mind.
I won't because it was so unfair.
I went through such a hard time.
Now you like me?
It's too late.
You realized it too late.
I'm sorry.
I'll make you suffer as much as I have.
-Okay.
-Don't even answer me.
I hate you so much.
I hate you even more
since you are doing as I said.
Then what should I do?
Anyway,
you will have to really wait for me
this time.
It will be longer than seven minutes
this time.
You might get old and die
while you wait for me.
-I understand.
-I'm not joking.
I know.
Hold on.
By the way,
starting now, change your attitude.
Since this is about work,
I have the upper hand.
Did you get that?
Yes, Mr. Noh
Bong-hui, hurry.
I'm going.
He's on leave?
He said something urgent came up.
Call me anytime.
I'll help you if there's anything
I can do for you.
I mentioned that I have to use
some of my unused vacation days.
I need to use them right now.
I understand.
Thank you.
Did he expect
he'd need to go on a vacation?
It seems like it, right?
As expected, Go Chan-ho isn't home.
He isn't.
Then
No, it's really hard
to break into that house.
We need an excavator
to make a hole to get in.
Bong-hui, I think you are capable
of doing anything. Aren't you?
-You are.
-Are you here to look at the house?
This is my building.
You two look like newlyweds.
Are you looking for your marital house?
-Yes.
-Yes.
The guy who lives here gave me his
permission
to look at the house
even when he's not home.
Take your time to take a look.
When was this unit put on the market?
Well, let me think. It was
around May 10th or 20th.
It's before the murder of Chef Yang.
Who?
No, it's nothing.
Can we take a look around it
privately? Just the two of us?
We just need to discuss
some private matters.
Since we're newlyweds, we must talk
about where the bed goes and stuff.
You look so intimate with each other
just like newlyweds.
Fine. I'll leave you two alone.
Look at it in private.
Let's look at it in private.
Where on earth could he have gone?
I don't know.
Could he have run away or something?
Or could he have gone somewhere
to take care of something?
If none of these are correct,
could he have gone on a trip?
It's plausible. Or
he could already have disappeared.
Sorry?
Nothing.
What?
What is this?
Mr. Noh.
We went to Go Chan-ho's place, but
There was nothing.
You didn't find anything?
No. Oh, right.
I'm not sure if this would be useful,
but I brought it just in case. Here.
It won't be easy, but I'll look into it.
I'd really appreciate it.
Like I said, it won't be easy.
I feel like my hands are tied
now that I have no governmental power.
Me too.
Will you not tell Ms. Eun
about Jung Hyeon-su?
I was going to tell her,
but I've decided to wait on it
as nothing has been confirmed yet.
SEONHO DISTRICT PROSECUTORS' OFFICE
My son.
It's a case file on Jang Hui-jun's case.
ESTIMATED TIME OF DEATH
MIDNIGHT, MAY 11, 2015
I'd like the two of you
to reinvestigate the case.
Reinvestigate it?
I've tried so hard to come to terms
with the verdict of the trial.
I went to the scene numerous times
to look for different possibilities.
I wondered if someone who was
holding grudges against me
killed my son for revenge.
But it wasn't that.
I thought about it over and over
and it has got to be her.
There's no evidence that tells otherwise.
I read the case file.
There were two weapons. One was
That's right.
I fabricated the evidence.
I used tricks
in order to catch Eun Bong-hui.
Then what about the other one?
I'm not sure how this will sound,
but I think I know
what you're thinking, sir.
Prosecutor Noh Ji-uk.
He was the prosecutor in charge
of the case.
You're probably thinking
that he placed it on the scene
just like what you did.
In order to save Eun Bong-hui,
he must've planted
the evidence on the scene
just like I did.
That's my conclusion.
Ji-uk would not do such a thing, sir.
If that's what you think,
go ahead and prove it to me.
I'm saying you should try to find
something new, no matter what it is.
What?
Mr. Byeon.
Say it, you brat.
Shall I
help you with the trial?
Ms. Lack of Evidence, will you?
I won't help you
if you keep calling me like that.
All right, Eun Bong-hui.
Ms. Eun.
All right, Ms. Eun. Help me out.
I feel that it's so unfair.
My insurance won't cover if this is a DUI.
Did you know that?
Everyone, please come.
CHORE BOARD: DO THE DISHES,
BUY COFFEE, TAKE OUT TRASH
This week's designator for dishes,
coffee, and trash is
you, Ms. Eun.
I'd like to volunteer.
Damn it.
Did something happen?
LAWYER EUN BONG-HUI
Drink up.
Are you done with that?
I'll clean it up.
-I'll put it away for you.
-Thank you.
Ms. Eun, are you done?
I'm working on the files.
Let me see your hands.
My hands?
Eat them while you work.
Thank you.
LAWYER EUN BONG-HUI
Were you running Widmark's formula?
-I see.
-Yes.
This formula is to calculate someone's
blood alcohol content
after driving under the influence.
So
Make sure you check this part.
Can you do it?
Drink some soda. You might choke.
Mom.
I think I'm in my golden days now.
Golden days?
You know how people have their golden days
like when they are in their prime.
Really? Why do you think so?
Did something spark between you
and the CEO of your firm?
Is it going well?
It's not that. It's just
I'm so happy
that all of my colleagues adore me.
I'm so happy that it sometimes scares me.
I'm afraid that
this might all be taken away from me.
Pathetic.
When you had something, you didn't
let people take it away from you.
It's just that you never had
a lot of things growing up.
Really?
She looks like it.
Mom, by the way, why do I get the feeling
your boss is always eavesdropping
our conversation?
Is it just me?
Let her be.
It's because her life is boring.
Yeong-sun!
The lawyers
made several visits.
They also met the couple in the photo.
I see.
So did your alibi hold up?
Yes.
It's all thanks to you.
-I'll get going now.
-Bye.
What's going on?
Am I being suspected?
Mr. Noh.
Mr. Noh.
Mr. Noh?
Mr. Noh, are you all right?
I heard you all the way
from the first floor.
Bong-hui.
Bong-hui, you are okay, right?
You are safe, right?
What? What is it?
Did I die in your nightmare or something?
I don't know.
I don't know who it was.
Someone
got hurt.
I
I'm sorry.
I'll get going.
Get some sleep.
I'll stay with you just for five minutes.
Don't get the wrong idea.
This is love for mankind.
I won't fall for you no matter
how cute you look sleeping.
COURT IN SESSION
The defendant finished drinking at 9 p.m.
The time of the accident
was 9:35 p.m. The police officer
who arrived at the scene
conducted the sobriety test at 9:45pm.
The sobriety test was conducted
at the time when the blood alcohol
content was on the rise.
Hence, it can't be concluded
the blood alcohol content when driving
was over 0.05 percent.
DEFENSE COUNSEL, DEFENDAN
Darn it.
Are you here to see Bong-hui?
I'm here for Mr. Byeon.
He's like a father figure to me.
I'm here to see
our youngest lawyer, Bong-hui.
Let's see how good she is. Shall we?
First of all, the grounds of the claim
that he finished drinking at 9 p.m.
seem to be lacking.
He didn't have any acquaintances
who joined him.
Yes, Your Honor, so I've submitted
the affidavit of the bartender
that he finished drinking at 9 p.m.
and his credit card statement.
I see.
Do you have evidence
to prove it was a justifiable act?
Well.
Unfortunately, due to the malfunction
of the dash cam,
we don't have any proof.
However, we are looking
for an eyewitness of the incident.
I understand.
I have a bad feeling about this.
-Prosecution.
-So do I.
Proceed with your sentencing.
Please punish the defendant with
a fine of 3 million won.
Lastly, does the defendant have
any last words he'd like to say?
Yes, Your Honor.
I agree that drinking and driving
is a very wrong thing to do.
Therefore, I deeply regret
what I have done.
However, it is true
that I only had two glasses of beer.
And I only drove out of the
good will to save a person's life.
Please take that into consideration.
Thank you.
Here is the verdict.
The defendant will have to pay
a fine of 3 million won.
If the defendant refuses to pay the fine,
every 100,000 won will be
converted into one day,
and thus, he will be imprisoned
in a workhouse for 30 days.
What did you say?
Hey, Ms. Lack of Evidence!
You used me like a slave.
And you lost?
You little Stop right there.
Hey!
Gosh, he's really angry.
Bong-hui took it too far.
She could've won
if it was a different judge.
Ji-hae, I'm sure you already know that
I'm quite pretty.
Yes.
That's what I thought
when we weren't so close.
What?
Never mind.
But you see, Ji-uk and Eun-hyeok
were also really handsome.
I see.
I used to feel proud when the three of us
hung out together.
People used to stare at us.
Oh, I see.
But
I hurt them both
and abandoned them.
I must've been crazy.
That's what happens when you have it all.
I can't argue with you
because you're right.
Right now,
she must be the one who has it all.
You'll only embarrass yourself
if you go out right now.
You'll regret it tomorrow.
Let go.
Gosh, this is so embarrassing.
Hey, you guys.
Ms. Cha?
Don't even talk to me.
You guys
You guys are so
Let's go.
She looked really drunk.
Don't you think so?
You don't need to worry.
He's right. She wasn't that drunk.
She has a high alcohol tolerance.
-She can drink for a couple more hours.
-Of course.
Well, what I meant was that
you don't need to worry about her
too much.
That's what I was trying to tell you.
He's right. That was the point.
He meant nothing else.
I didn't say anything.
I was just thinking of hitting
back of her head if she was drunk
because she always glares at me.
Will you be okay?
Go home safely, Yu-jeong.
Okay, bye.
It's hard to track where Go Chan-ho
went on the day he disappeared.
I'm still checking the dash cams
of the cars
that were parked in the alley
outside of his house.
But there are a few blind spots,
and it's not clear since it was dark.
Oh, I see.
Then
did you look into the people
in this photo?
I've started to go through
Go Chan-ho's alumni.
I know
who bought you the shoes.
That's exactly what Go Chan-ho said
to Bong-hui.
Then
do you think the person
who bought the shoes
is in this photo?
Or is it Jung Hyeon-su?
Ji-uk.
Come over here and look at this.
This just in.
The murder weapon presumably
used to kill Chef Yang
was found last night in a car
parked on a roadside in Chuncheon,
The assumed culprit is Mr. Go,
and it's more shocking
because he used to work in forensics.
It seems like he ran away
after abandoning the car
on a remote roadside
along with the weapon.
Meanwhile, the fact that
Mr. Go was in charge of the
forensic examination of the scene
will shock the public even more.
The police say they will do their best
to find and arrest Mr. Go.
The police of Goyang and Chuncheon
are back-tracking
the route that Mr. Go used.
They're doing their best
to track his whereabouts.
Ms. Eun, you're here.
Have you been well?
Yes, of course.
What's with you two?
Is there something I don't know about?
Hey, guys.
Where's Ms. Lack of Evidence,
the girl who lost
my case?
She's been slipping out
whenever she has the chance.
I haven't been able to see her
for a while now.
I miss her so dearly.
I guess she's not here.
Where did she escape to?
My goodness.
Goodness.
What?
Where is Bong-hui, really?
What is it that you want to tell me?
Well
I actually lied to you about something.
You lied to me?
Yes.
My alibi.
To be honest,
I couldn't remember exactly
where I was and what I did that day.
But if I didn't tell you
my whereabouts in detail,
I felt like you wouldn't believe me. So
I lied to you.
May I ask
why you're telling me this right now?
When everyone in the world attacked me
and called me a murderer,
you're the only person
who believed in what I said.
I'm telling you this
because I want to be truthful to you.
I'm sorry.
What about Jung Hyeon-su?
What are you looking into?
Well
You don't need to know about it yet.
What is it? Why are you saying
I don't need to know it yet?
I just feel a little suspicious.
That's all.
Thank you
for being honest with me.
I can go by myself.
I'll escort you to your car.
Okay, then.
Sir!
Hey, long time no see.
How have you been?
Good. By the way,
I was planning to call you.
Really?
Yes. Until when do you plan to
leave that banner up there?
It'll only cost you money.
For just a little bit more.
I think that's fine.
Thank you for helping me.
I finished it quickly thanks to you.
Are you the witness by any chance?
Are you calling the police?
Thanks anyway.
-Didn't you get the report?
-A report?
Yes, someone said he'd report something.
Who? Who said that?
I don't know who he is.
It was a young man.
When was it?
Was it at the beginning of this spring?
I saw him while switching the banners.
Was it before he sent me the shoes?
By any chance, do you remember
what he looked like?
Anything will help.
Do you remember anything?
I'm not sure.
It's not easy to remember
someone whom you met just once.
I don't even remember
what I had for breakfast today.
Then I should test him.
Let's see if he
remembers me or not.
If he remembers me
Is he a friend of yours?
No, no.
Excuse me for a second.
Yes, Mr. Noh.
I'm with Hyeon-su now.
Well If that's the case,
bring him here.
We now know the real culprit anyway.
We should have dinner with him.
All right.
Don't make any stops.
Come here right away.
Okay, I will.
Mr. Noh. is saying
we should have dinner together.
Oh, really?
Sure, let's do that.
Sir, please give me a call
if you remember anything.
I'll be in touch too. I'll see you soon.
All right.
-Have a good day.
-You too. Bye.
CASE REPOR
ON THE 2015 MURDER OF JANG HUI-JUN
I think that the chief's speculation
is actually quite plausible.
Even before they met as a mentor
and a probationary officer,
there was something
between Noh Ji-uk and Bong-hui.
I heard they were spotted
meeting at a hotel as well.
There were bad rumors about her. And
"you're dirty, but you're so pretty."
He used to make such
affectionate remarks too.
He did?
Then Bong-hui became a murder suspect.
He might have been willing to do anything
to get her acquitted.
-We're here.
-Welcome.
-Hello, have you been well?
-Of course.
-Please make yourself at home.
-All right.
-Hello.
-Oh, hello.
Can I give you a hand with it?
Why? Are you skilled with knives?
Gosh, what are you talking about?
You're our guest.
Please make yourself at home.
What's the matter?
-What is it?
-Why didn't you tell me?
-What?
-Jung Hyeon-su
About Hyeon-su. Why didn't you tell me?
Oh, well That's
That was because
Nothing was really confirmed, so--
Something seems off about him,
and he did lie.
You were sure about those things.
Yes, you're right.
Did you want me
to feel like an idiot or what?
I'm so disappointed in you.
Gosh, it's not like that.
That's really not what I intended.
You see, there wasn't really
anything concrete I could tell you.
I was worried
you might beat yourself up like crazy.
You kept what I should know from me.
Did you really think
you were doing it for my sake?
I'm sorry. I made a mistake.
Yes, you did.
Just a second. How
How did you know?
Hyeon-su beat you to it.
He told me that he lied about his alibi.
He beat us to it?
All right.
Then what's your thought on him?
I don't know. I'll say I'm neutral.
But what's bothering me is
the fact that there must be a reason
you're suspicious of him.
All right.
Hey.
Is there anything I can help you with?
No.
Just go plate the food.
-That's fine too.
-Yes.
Now, we have another guest.
I'm here for work.
Don't look at me like that.
-My gosh.
-Oh, my.
What do you say? How's the food?
Everything looks so delicious.
-I'm glad to hear that.
-I'm good with everything,
but putting tomatoes in bulgogi is
Then don't eat it.
Thank you for the food.
You're welcome. I hope you all enjoy it.
Oh, about the forensic officer,
Go Chan-ho
Do you know that he's now being chased
by the police
as the suspect
of the murder of Yang Jin-wu?
Yes, I saw it on the news.
I see, you saw it.
You don't know him personally, do you?
No, not at all.
I was so surprised to hear
that the killer is a police officer.
Congratulations.
Those who are
acquitted for lack of evidence
continue to look or get treated
like culprits
in the absence of other suspects
or real culprits.
Please don't worry.
The prosecution hasn't been able
to catch the real killer
but I'll be sure to catch him
and bring him to you.
I came here to tell you this.
Bong-hui, I'll be reinvestigating
your ex-boyfriend Jang Hui-jun's case.
I'm not sure if I could find anything now,
but I'll try to dig things up.
From the crime scene to anyone involved,
I'll go through them all.
The killer might be
in this house right now.
Anyhow, what do you think
is going on with Go Chan-ho?
Would he really be on the run?
I'm not sure. I'm really curious too.
We should try to sound out Jung Hyeon-su.
That's the only thing we can do now.
Don't you think the house feels so empty,
now that everyone is gone?
Not really. I like how quiet it is.
Mr. Ji, my husband died.
What happened?
Please rethink your decision
just once more.
Hey, Eun-hyeok. Aren't you
hiding something from me?
I'm going to give my client
whatever she wants!
Will you be able to handle
the consequences?
