Hajun, get out of there now.

- Explosives are about to go off. - What?

Explosives?

All the doors are locked.

They're not getting out.

Kyojin.

Let's not see each other ever again.

EPISODE 15

You look even more pathetic than I'd imagined.

I married you under two conditions.

That you'd protect Kumjo, no matter what,

and that you'd be a perfect father to my son Kyojin.

But you failed to fulfill the latter condition when you brought in Dojin.

It was a genuine mistake.

A mistake from one night.

That's too bad.

You staked your life on a child you sired by mistake,

but he betrayed you and brought you here.

I wanted…

to make things work between us.

I did anything and everything you asked of me, even to the brink of death.

You shouldn't have laid a finger on Dojin.

Have you not tormented him enough by getting him to marry Haesoo?

Have you no shame?

What could we have done? Your son loves Haesoo.

Thanks to him, Kumjo was no longer under suspicion regarding the Ko Taesun case.

I am grateful for that, you know.

My Dojin is innocent.

Leave him alone. Why draw divine retribution to yourself?

If you want to save Dojin,

give me what you have.

Hand over all of your Kumjo shares to Kyojin.

The prosecution will summon Dojin soon.

The sooner you decide, the better.

Min Younghwee!

Spare your energy. Looks like you'll be in there for a while.

You look pretty good in prison garb.

Don't get all high and mighty!

You never know what lies ahead in life!

The heavens are watching us!

"PRESIDENT!"

To my fellow Koreans, who trusted and supported me all this time,

today's victory would've been impossible if it weren't for the campaign staff here.

Thank you all.

I will serve this country to repay you for the trust you've placed in me.

"A PRESIDENT WHO COMMUNICATES ON THE PEOPLE'S SIDE!"

NO. 7 PYO JAEHYUN

Is Ms. Hong coming?

I'm sure everyone's dying to see her.

Oh, wow! She's here!

Over here, Ms. Hong!

Congratulations.

Taera.

I won the election.

You must be very pleased.

There's a fire at Mokeum Temple?

They're containing it now.

There's a fire. What's happening?

- Was anyone hurt? - We're checking now.

There's a fire at Mokeum Temple?

They're containing the fire now.

What's this all of a sudden?

How big was the fire?

What?

A bomb?

The doors are all locked. They blocked the exits.

What?

There's an emergency exit. Follow me.

Hajun.

You have to survive, so we can meet again.

Of course. Don't worry.

But promise me one thing.

Never give up on your life for revenge.

Stop living as Hong Taera.

Live happily as Mun Hagyeong,

no matter what happens to me.

Why would you say that?

Promise me that you'll do as I ask.

Hajun!

Hajun!

I'll keep my promise.

Watch over me, and see how I destroy Pyo Jaehyun, Hajun.

The Presidential Security Service will protect you and your family

until the inauguration.

All personnel have been deployed.

We'll handle security for your itinerary, personal and public.

That's reassuring.

I'm counting on you.

- Thank you so much. - Thank you.

What is your first official schedule?

Let's visit the fire scene at Mokeum Temple.

Yes, sir.

President-elect Pyo's first official visit

will be at the fire scene at Mokeum Temple.

The exact number of casualties has yet to be confirmed.

To determine the cause of the fire,

the police, CSI, the Korea Electrical Safety Corporation,

and the Fire Department,

have begun their joint investigation on the scene.

What caused the accident?

It seems explosives were set off at this lab.

We're still analyzing the details,

including what experiments were done here.

Have you identified all the victims?

The bodies were damaged due to the explosion,

so it'll take some time.

First, I offer my condolences to the victims of this tragic incident.

As to why there was a research lab here and what experiments were being conducted,

the truth must be clearly revealed.

Also, concerning the victims' funeral procedures and compensation,

I'll do my best as the president-elect to attend to it with the transition team.

MOKEUM TEMPLE FIRE SITE COMMAND HEADQUARTERS

Thank you for your hard work. Have some of this.

Thank you.

Is there any way I can check the identity of the bodies?

Due to the blast, we haven't found any bodies that were whole.

They'll be hard to identify.

There you are.

I was wondering if I could help with anything.

- Hello, sir. - Hello. Thank you for your hard work.

I don't see a memorial for the victims here.

Would it be all right if I made one for you?

Oh, thank you. Thank you, ma'am.

Ms. Ko, I haven't accepted your resignation.

I need you back at work.

I clearly expressed my intention to resign.

I know you're feeling uneasy due to recent family issues.

But your confrontation with Chairman Jang has reached ten million views now.

Message boards on our website are exploding because of your fan base.

"Do not shun the victim. Bring her back immediately."

"Do you want to lose a real journalist?"

We get tens of thousands of calls a day.

Where else can the face of YBC go?

You may as well dedicate your life there.

I won't tell you again.

Help me out here, Ms. Ko. Come on. Huh?

Oh, great. I'll see you at the office.

Okay? Don't see me out.

Stop-- Stay there! I'll get going.

Hey, did you find anything?

The files are meticulously fabricated to frame Dojin for misappropriation.

It'll be hard to discredit.

The Kumjo Group executives are avoiding my calls too.

I reckon they've been compromised.

What do you mean?

Didn't you hear?

Your mother-in-law is to become the acting chairwoman today.

I believe you're all still in shock.

When I found out about Chairman Jang's crimes,

I too wanted to end his life by my hand.

- We understand. - Yes, we do.

Kumjo Group was founded upon the company that my father built:

Joseong Foods.

Therefore, I can never give up Kumjo.

Of course,

I stepped away from company management a long time ago.

It'll be hard to put your trust in me.

So instead of trusting me,

trust yourselves.

Please help me to rebuild

the Kumjo you built.

Please protect the hundreds of thousands whose lives depend on Kumjo.

I beg you to consider it.

What about Kyojin?

I found his departure records to the US.

The US?

Contact all our US offices. Tell them to find Kyojin.

Yes, ma'am.

Before those snakes start getting funny ideas,

we need to find him to make him the chairman.

You've shown your true colors, Mother.

What do you mean?

You wanted Kumjo,

so you framed Dojin for something he didn't do, no?

Your concerns for me and Leo, was it all an act?

Did you deceive all of us?

Your sentimental view of the world

is why your revenge took so long.

Let's think rationally here.

Once you divorce Dojin, we're strangers anyway.

If you want what's best for Leo, shouldn't you humble yourself before me?

Dojin must've been so lonely all this time.

And he tried so hard to be loved by a mother like you.

I pity that poor man so much.

Don't tell me…

Are you actually worried about Dojin?

Knowing what your father-in-law did?
