EPISODE 6

You always stood behind your husband,

perhaps to minimize exposure.

Can you tell us why?

Could it be because you have a tremendous secret?

What's this?

- Hey, get in here! Radio the others. - Ko, the questions are a bit…

- Yes, sir! - Am I making you uncomfortable?

Think of this as a precursor of what's to come.

After all, there might be things about your wife you don't know yet.

What exactly are you talking about?

YBC EXCLUSIVE ELECTION SPECIAL "WHO ARE YOU"

Taera, you know who this is, don't you?

Who on earth is she?

The real killer of the late President Ko Taesun.

This is the assassin who killed my father.

- What? - Really?

- What does that mean? - Is that true?

- No way. - I don't believe it.

She's taking quite a risk.

What's she doing?

She keeps going off script.

She was fine earlier…

On that day, 15 years ago,

were you not also at the scene, Ms. Hong?

What?

The woman in this photo.

The suspect who assassinated the former President Ko.

Is this you, Ms. Hong?

What? No way. This can't be happening.

Answer me, Hong Taera.

Was it you who killed my father…

on that day, 15 years ago?

Hey, hey, Ms. Ko, are you insane?

- Geez. - Are you nuts?

That's enough, Ms. Ko.

What's with the tears?

Are you admitting guilt?

Tell me, Hong Taera.

Are you No. 50, the assassin who shot my father?

Answer me!

Is this for real? What's this about?

What are you doing?

- Quickly! Shut it down now! - Quickly! Shut it--

So the little bitch has done it.

Let's take a break. Sorry, everyone!

- What's going on? - What happened?

Chief-- One moment-- Hey, Ms. Ko--! Sir, wait!

Why are you silent?

I have proof you forged your identity.

You can't run this time, Taera!

I don't intend to.

I came here to tell the truth.

That's enough.

- What the hell is this? - You really didn't know?

You didn't know your wife killed my father?

Were you pretending this whole time? Did you deceive me too?

Calm down, Ko Haesoo!

Stop talking nonsense.

Is this why you brought us here? Huh?

Did you not kill my father?

Answer me, Hong Taera!

Have you lost your mind? Are you insane?

Haesoo's done nothing wrong.

Let me talk to her.

Talk about what? Forget it. Let's just go.

I need to talk to her.

Answer me before you go! Hong Taera!

Let go!

What's happening?

What if his poll drops?

Chief.

What the hell does that mean?

YBC ELECTION SPECIAL "WHO ARE YOU"

- Ms. Hong! - We love you!

- Over here! - There they are.

NO. 1 BRAIN

Hong Taera!

Hong Taera!

What do you think you're doing?

Move it.

Hong Taera and Director Kim Seondeok killed my father!

Hong Taera is a trained killer from Hanwool Mental Hospital!

- What? - Has she gone mad?

- Out of my way. - Stop this please!

- Haesoo, please stop. - Get off me!

- Breaking news. - Pay attention!

Ju, who claimed himself to be the real assassin of the late President,

was found dead in his home moments ago.

Our reporter is live on the scene to give us further details.

Reporter Min Yungi.

Ju, who claimed himself to be the real assassin of the late President,

disclosed his location an hour ago,

leaving behind a suicide note before ending his life.

The firearm he used has been confirmed

as the same one he used to assassinate the late president 15 years ago,

- adding credibility to his confession. - Impossible.

- The police are identifying the body… - You!

You shat on the special,

and practically yielded our ratings to our competitors.

You've really done it, Ko Haesoo!

Lies…

Those are all lies.

Why now?

That's not possible.

It's all a lie!

The following was written on the culprit's suicide note:

"I've lived with a guilty conscience, and though I was acting

upon someone's orders, I cannot disclose their identity."

Ko Haesoo's gone insane.

What have you done? Let me go.

- Do you see what you've done? - Please calm down.

- What the hell? - So she was wrong.

Was this your plan all along? To ruin everything?

Haesoo.

Haesoo, wake up.

Haesoo, come on. Haesoo.

Let's say she was stressing over Dojin's affair.

But why take it all out on Taera?

I'm so disappointed in her.

The press is having a field day with this.

I knew something was going awry half way through.

It was as if Ms. Ko had already made up her mind.

So she intentionally sent us a different script,

while she prepared for her own show.

Wow, I'm getting goose bumps. Goodness gracious--

Yeah, she can go insane all she wants. But don't just pick on the wrong person!

How spiteful can she be to just dump it on Ms. Taera Hong.

But it is pretty weird.

The timing of when the culprit who'd been sought for so long appears

and confesses before he dies?

I let it slide with Dojin's incident, but not this time.

- I need to hear what she has to say. - Honey.

We need to talk.

So why are you so protective of her?

This shouldn't be taken lightly.

Jaehyun…

Do you really trust me?

What if Haesoo's right and I'm not the woman you think I am?

What will you do then?

What are you saying?

Have you remembered something?

What is it? Tell me.

I need to know, so I can help you.

I already told you. I trust the Hong Taera I know.

Whoever you were in the past, I'm on your side.

No matter what happens, I will protect you.

With my life.

I'm sorry you have to go through this because of me.

Your late sister must've wanted to hear your voice one last time.

NEW VOICEMAIL

It's unfortunate you never picked up.

Taera,

the person who gave you your new identity is your husband, Pyo Jaehyun.

He deceived me too.

Don't ever trust him.

You don't know what he's capable of.

Jaehyun is trying to get this flash drive I stole from Sungchan.

If something happens to me,

can you…

…give it back to Sungchan?

Are you sure nothing was found?

Yes.

We performed an autopsy as you requested, but we didn't find metal in her stomach.

Thank you.

Keep the autopsy an absolute secret.

Even from my wife.

Of course.

Seems she ingested it right before she died.

It hadn't reached her stomach.

I only did what you asked, but I'm not sure if I should be doing this.

Receiving payment from both of you…

If this gets out, both of us will put you six feet under.

Keep your mouth shut.

Confidentiality is everything to a man like me.

We'll have the body moved to the funeral home without a hitch.

Rest assured.

HATCH

Have some rest. I'll let everyone out.

I won't confront Haesoo, as you asked.

Are you okay?

What happened?

Do you not remember what you did?

No, I remember very clearly.

I'm not insane.

Everything I said on air is the truth.

That Taera killed your father?

That woman's not the real Hong Taera.

She deceived us all!

Do you even hear yourself?

Who would believe such nonsense?

Wait! Hey--

The real culprit was found dead on the day of my special.

What are the chances?

Someone concocted that story to cover up Taera's sins.
