No way! This can't be happening!

What's wrong, Mr. Ha?

(Update 2: "Momo's mother, Hyun Ran Hee, Suspected in Apparent Suicide")

That's Geum Ba Ra for you.

She's first on scene and gets top intel. She's our rookie, too.

What is going on?

The secret engagement story just blew up.

Gosh, someone's dying every day now.

The third update is out.

Hurry up!

Ma'am, it's dangerous. Come on, what are you doing?

- Gosh, Chief! - You're relentless. Seriously.

Excuse me.

Do you have someone to help around the house?

Who does the cleaning...

Was it just you and your mother living here?

Shouldn't you have rushed her to the hospital?

You didn't even perform CPR.

It was too late for CPR.

You just end up breaking their ribs at that point.

- Should we move her? - Yes.

Mom!

- We're going in. - You can't enter.

We're close to her in both work and life.

- If we can't go in, who can? - Let us go in.

We're practically family.

- Who's in charge here? - The police!

Just give us one comment!

- Hey, let us through. - Yes. sir.

- Is that confirmed, Chief? - Look over here!

- Make way! - Step back!

It's me.

Are we sure it's a suicide?

- Yes. - Cause of death?

- Hypothermia, most likely. - Hypothermia?

The bedroom's an absolute freezer.

The AC was...

This is not the time or place!

They're coming out!

Momo.

Hello.

You must be Momo's mother, CEO Hyun Ran Hee.

Ba Ra.

- You actually came. - Of course.

Your mother is here too.

Goodness.

Ms. Hyun.

I didn't expect to see you here.

Neither did I.

What brings you here?

This is Geum Ba Ra, a reporter from Sungwoo Daily.

- Hello. - Hello.

She's covering the exhibition today, and my schedule just happened to be free.

Are you close with CEO Ju Yeong Ae?

No. My senior editor sent me to cover it.

Mom, do you have an exhibition coming up?

It's in the works.

- That's Momo, right? - Yes.

She's so much prettier in person.

I'll be back.

Look at CEO Ju, schmoozing.

You can't just disappear on me like last time.

Chairman Kang has arrived.

- Welcome. - It's my pleasure.

Excuse me for a moment.

Hello.

This is my daughter.

Artist Paul Kim. He was based in Germany.

It's a pleasure to meet you.

Hello.

Your pieces have already sold, you know. Both of them.

She's a close reporter friend of mine from Sungwoo Daily.

- Excuse me. Is Artist Paul Kim here? - Yes.

- That's him. - How's your work coming along?

It's been a little slow lately.

What do you do to relax? Besides photography trips?

I just read books and whatnot.

Korea's changed a lot, hasn't it?

Have you been back much?

No.

She doesn't look like you.

An improvement on the original, right?

I've never met her, but I'm told I look like my grandmother.

Excuse me, could I get a picture?

Thank you.

Give me a call next time you're in Seoul.

You must be busy, though.

It's fine as long as it's not last-minute.

This is Artist Paul Kim.

Hello. I'm Geum Ba Ra from the Culture Desk at Sungwoo Daily.

- Hi. I don't have a card yet. - Please.

Your work is your business card.

Would you mind telling me a little about your piece?

Let me just get a picture first.

I'm not planning to run the story right away.

You'll get fans after this photo gets out, won't you?

What about the suicide note?

- The forensics team has it. - What does it say?

- What happened? - It appears to be a suicide.

Okay, right this way.

Ma'am, we're going to need you to come down to the station.

- We'll confirm with handwriting analysis. - Understood.

Check the gallery office, not the house, for any documents handwritten by Ms. Hyun.

Got it.

Let me see the suicide note. I won't write it in the article.

You've already gotten your scoop.

Go in my office.

Reporters will be swarming in here any minute.

I can't imagine how you're feeling, but we need to get your statement.

Can you walk us through what happened?

What time did you find her?

I don't know.

I didn't have anything scheduled today, so I slept in a little.

And when I woke up,

it was quiet,

so I figured she had gone to the gallery.

How'd you know to call? I literally just walked in.

James just told me.

Do you have plans for Christmas Eve?

You know I don't make any special plans.

I always have dinner with you on Christmas Eve.

We're thicker than blood, I swear.

Does just sharing blood make you family?

Exactly.

Because plenty of siblings are worse than strangers.

You should do a talent donation this time.

What talent do I even have?

Perform at the Sponsor Appreciation Night at Nua Children's Home.

My fingers are stiff now.

They'll loosen up if you practice.

It'd be great if James could come too.

Come on, let's go.

- Hello. - We keep running into each other.

- It's not over, is it? - Part two is about to start.

(Nua Children's Home Sponsor Appreciation Night)

- Thank you. - I'm a huge fan.

- Hello. - Hello.

Are you enjoying the food?

Do you come to this every year?

Yes.

The vibe here is so great with the music.

You're drinking quite a bit today.

It's Christmas Eve.

Next year, I'll keep my schedule clear,

come early, and have a meal with the kids.

You definitely should.

(Nua Children's Home Sponsor Appreciation Night)

(Nua Children's Home Sponsor Appreciation Night)

- How'd the surgery go? - It went well.

The Chairman is on a call with Ambassador Yu Gu Jong.

All right. Is Momo here yet?

Yes, she's a big hit with our guests.

I'm so jealous.

(Nua Children's Home Sponsor Appreciation Night)

You're here.

- Advisor. - Where's your father?

- Advisor! - What is it?

- What's going on? - Advisor!

Are you adopting another one?

No.

- It's not been long since Oiji passed. - Where are you?

Here.

I thought you'd be pulling an all-nighter with Ju Shin.

Momo's sponsored by your company, right?

- Yes. - Introduce me.

- Was Momo at the party too? - Yes.

Forget about it. She's getting engaged to Ju Shin soon.

Really?

Yes.

- Did you introduce them? - Ju Shin is head over heels for her.

That's why Momo's here. She'll be the foundation's first lady.

Go have a cold beer to cool off instead of just water.

How are things between you and Eun Ah?

Of all people, Momo? I'm on Team Geum Ba Ra.

Hello.

It's cold out here.

It's too hot inside.

I made a fool of myself the other day. I didn't know you were Ju Shin's friend.

I got carried away hearing live music for the first time in a while.

Do you have a side gig?

I'm not good enough to moonlight.

I'm so jealous of people who can play an instrument.

- You could just learn. - Then you can tutor me part-time.

Where's Ju Shin?

- The restroom. - Is his stomach acting up again?

Yes. And he only had juice on the way over.

I guess that's how the skies keep things fair.

Ju Shin has a weak stomach,

but he's an A-plus in every other way.

I'm Ha Yong Joong, by the way.

With the Advisor collapsing that day, Ju Shin never got to introduce us.

I'm Momo.

I looked you up. It's your real name.

Yes, a lot of people assume it's a stage name.

So why did you look me up?

Curious about me as an actress?

Or as your friend's girlfriend?

Both, of course.
