The first 200 lines.
What's your real reason for approaching me?
It was you, wasn't it?
You're the one who tried to kill my husband 20 years ago.
It was a mistake.
I should have finished him off back then.
Well, that's an interesting way to confess.
If Park Je Yeol had died back then,
you wouldn't be going through this either.
You filed a sexual assault report, didn't you?
Ten months before your child's birth.
Shut it.
But the report was withdrawn, and Park Je Yeol got what he wanted.
Right.
You should have just killed him back then.
You don't know anything.
You don't know what he's like, or what I go through to survive.
You think I haven't tried anything all this time?
I did. I tried everything I could,
but I failed.
I'll get you out of there.
I said I'd help you. That was our deal, wasn't it?
- If a lawyer was all it took... - Here.
This is your key out of your fiery pit.
Don't get up. Stay right there.
Wait.
- Honey. - Yes?
I'm not an invalid, you know.
Right.
I was just worried the smell would make you feel sick.
So, should we order something?
Sure. Order whatever you're craving.
Here you go.
Let me see.
Honey, by the way, how's that new case you're on going?
You know, the reinvestigation.
- Hyun Jin. - Yes?
It's nothing. Let me clear this away.
Just rest until the food arrives.
- I'm seriously ordering everything. - Go ahead, order it all.
Everyone does it like this.
- No, it's definitely him. - No, it's not. Look closer.
Mom, Dad's driving me crazy.
No matter how many times I tell him, he can't tell Minje and Keiju apart!
- Is that the one with orange hair? - Gosh, you're seriously hopeless.
Did you have dinner?
She already ate with me. You're late.
Yes. Work ran late.
Just plug it into Park Je Yeol's phone.
And you can make him disappear from your life for good.
Mom.
- Yes? - I said I want some fruit.
What's with you? Did you run into someone?
It's nothing. Wait, I'll get you a mango.
- Dad, this is the last time. - Okay, I got it.
- I'll explain again. Watch. - Okay.
Hey, Shin Jae.
How did it go?
I said what I had to say.
As long as Hong Yeon Hui does her part,
we can be the ones to take down Park Je Yeol.
Proof that the Connect app exists. On top of that,
if we have proof of Park Je Yeol's involvement,
we can blow this whole thing wide open.
You'll add the abuse charge and not give him any room to breathe?
Only if Ms. Hong Yeon Hui agrees to it.
You think Attorney Kwon will just sit back and let this happen?
Don't worry. I won't let him hold us back.
Did you eat dinner?
Just grabbed a bite on my way in. Are you calling about work?
No. I just called because I wanted to hear your voice.
What's gotten into you?
I'm happy we're going to be aunts,
but I was worried you might be lonely at night.
Get some sleep.
I've been thinking.
I think it's best if I just go to work.
If you're at the office, you'll keep running into Attorney Kwon.
And he might recognise you.
It didn't seem like he recognised me last time.
And I enjoyed it. Working at your office, I mean.
It may not be a big deal to others, but it was a first for me.
Working in an office.
If that's what you want, Min Seo, let's do that.
Min Seo, wait a second.
Here, I saw this and thought of you.
What are you doing up? Aren't you sleeping?
I was just about to.
- You look tired. Go to bed. - Okay.
- Sang A. - Yes?
Never mind. Good night.
(Senior Prosecutor's Office, Senior Prosecutor Park Je Yeol)
Any breakthroughs after just one day?
Take this case back.
That's disappointing.
Aren't you waving the white flag a bit too soon?
I'm already overloaded with my current cases.
Or is it because you're scared?
Scared this might be Pandora's box.
Do you think Hyun Jin was the one who did that to you?
I gave you the case so you could find that out.
You were the one who sent me the newspaper article too, right?
Why did you drag me into this in the first place?
Do you want to catch the culprit, or do you want to hurt Hyun Jin?
What if it's both?
This was your doing, wasn't it?
Listen to me very carefully.
If anything like this ever happens to Hyun Jin again,
I really won't let it slide.
Detective Gu Seon Kyu.
You do realise, don't you?
That you just covered up an attempted murder.
You're not the only detective in the world, are you?
I wonder.
When it's proven that I was right,
what you'll do then.
If that happens,
I'll give up my badge myself.
This is amazing!
I can't. It's so beautiful.
It's adorable.
I didn't know if it would be a boy or girl, so I chose yellow.
I wanted to be first to get a gift for my future niece or nephew.
Thank you.
I bet Seon Kyu is thrilled, right?
Actually, we're both still in a bit of a daze.
Maybe it'll start to feel real after our hospital appointment.
Hope it goes well. See that Seon Kyu treats you to something delicious.
I will. But this is seriously so cute.
Where are the paper cups?
The cups...
Here you go.
Thank you.
I don't think I've seen you around here before.
- I just started recently. - Is that right?
Keep up the good work.
I was the one who hired Han Min Seo.
How can you fire her without any reason?
Her resume has only one line on it. High school dropout.
Do we need to screen for education for a simple part-time job?
Is there a reason we shouldn't?
Or what? Is there some other reason I can't?
I'm in charge here now. An employee with her bad history.
I've never kept someone like that on my staff.
Is that so? This is a first for me too.
Working for a man who solicits prostitutes.
Are you heading home? I'll give you a ride.
Let her. She wants to.
Yes, ma'am.
Read this on the way.
It's a sex trafficking scandal involving high-profile figures.
And there are minors among the exploited victims.
There's circumstantial evidence linking it to at least two murders.
Now you're playing detective?
So?
What's your point? Are you asking for a bigger budget?
Attorney Kwon is involved. As a client.
What are you going to do?
Who else knows about this case?
Right now, only the three of us know.
Then bury it.
That's an order.
If what you say is true, more clients might be involved,
and if this gets to the authorities, our stance is clear.
We will stand by our clients.
So Attorney Kwon won't have to worry, will he?
This won't pose any risk at all.
As expected, your scales of justice have never
tipped in favour of those without money and power.
That's my definition of justice. The winning side.
Still, I was hoping
that you'd get rid of Attorney Kwon.
That you'd side with what's right, not what's powerful.
Just like the vain hopes you always have for me.
It's all so futile and pointless.
I'm done.
My kind of justice has no place at Haeil, Mom.
I'm getting out here.
This is Kang Shin Jae.
We need to meet today.
You can hear that, right? That's the baby's heartbeat.
It looks like you're about eight weeks along.
Eight weeks?
But I had my period during that time.
That's a common mistake for first-time mothers.
It was most likely implantation bleeding.
Excuse me, Doctor.
Heroin?
Yes. At eight weeks, she was already pregnant.
- Will the baby be okay? - I can't be sure it had no effect.
To be frank,
in a normal case, the risk would be so high
that I would've advised you to consider your options.
But the baby is growing well for its gestational age.
Let's just keep a close watch for now.
I'll be sure to keep a close eye on it.
This baby really is a miracle.
- A miracle? - The hysterosalpingogram was fine,
but your test results, sir,
showed under 1 percent normal morphology.
Your sperm count and motility were also extremely low.
