Gwang Sik!
Gwang Sik, where are you?
Gwang Sik!
Gwang Sik...
What...
What on earth?
Is this it?
These are our baby clothes.
These look like baby diaries.
This is Gwang Sik's and this is Gwang Tae's.
Wait. Where's mine?
These are our baby photos.
Look. It's all worn out.
Is this it?
There must be something more.
Let me.
What's this?
Let's not read this.
Give it here.
Open it.
It must be Dad's diary.
- Come on. We should go through it. - She's right.
It's rude to read other people's diaries.
Take a look. The dates go way back.
The entries start from 1987 and they're spaced out.
Here's one in 1993. The last one was written in 1994.
There must be something in there for him to have kept it hidden.
What can there be when he's an open book?
Besides, they were written decades ago,
so how can there be anything new?
Let's not go this far. It's wrong.
I guess.
I wouldn't want someone to read my diary either.
Same here.
Hold on.
Is this what he had under lock and key then?
Even when there was a fire, he wouldn't leave it behind.
I thought there would be some kind of evidence.
Unbelievable.
He spent his whole life earning money to provide for you.
He'd leave in the morning and only return after your bedtime.
My guess is that it made him treasure these baby items.
When he went to work in Saudi Arabia,
he left with a photo of Gwang Nam at 100 days.
You two weren't born at the time.
Because of your mom, his family disowned him.
He then went wherever your mom wanted...
but volunteered to work in Saudi Arabia...
when he heard of the second pregnancy.
His parents came...
to Seoul when they couldn't reach their eldest son...
only to find out that he went to work...
in a blazing hot country just to provide for his family.
It was a sorrowful sight.
One I still remember to this day.
Back then, a lot of Korean men went to Saudi Arabia to earn money.
He worked near the sea where it's humid at night.
He woke up to squeeze the sweat out of his clothes.
It was an opportunity many desired at first,
but the men returned half their size in less than a year.
Your father held out for three years.
But your mom wasted all the money he sent home.
Not only that, but she lost the house they barely bought.
I'm sure you know about...
the son your parents had after Gwang Nam.
We only know that he existed...
and that his name was Gwang Sik.
I was given his name.
Well, your brother died because of your mom.
What are you talking about?
During the three years your dad spent in Saudi Arabia,
your mom got addicted to dancing.
That's what she spent all the money on.
She put 4-year-old Gwang Nam and 2-month-old Gwang Sik to sleep...
and went out after locking up.
I even heard that she used drugs to put you two to sleep.
That's how serious it was.
When the fire broke out,
Gwang Nam managed to get out,
but that little baby couldn't.
Imagine how he must've struggled alone in the fire.
Your dad flew back home right away from Saudi when he heard that.
I've never seen such a thing before.
He didn't even get to hold his own son in his arms.
He was stunned holding the charred remains of his son.
After that, he suffered from serious depression and panic disorder.
He was just getting by because of you, Gwang Nam.
He couldn't leave you.
Are you serious?
He lost everything in the fire.
That's why he started to get attached to things like this.
All your stuff was destroyed by the fire back then.
I feel bad for the dead Gwang Sik.
He didn't get to live because of his mom.
You three saved your dad's life.
Not everyone becomes a good parent just because they have a kid.
There are bad people in the world,
and there are also women who are born mean.
That's your mom and my sister.
Let me tell you one more thing.
When your mom had the accident last year...
Gosh.
What about that day?
Answer the phone first.
Hello?
Yes, Detective.
What?
You caught the culprit?
They already caught the culprit. It's Dad's friend.
- Dol Se. - The culprit is caught.
It's Dad's friend named Dol Se.
What?
It's someone else?
Someone else? Who is it then?
My gosh.
- Oh dear. - Careful.
My goodness.
Hurry.
Let's go.
You're not answering my call. Are you sleeping?
Cheol Soo, I'm out.
The culprit is caught.
This is big news.
You will freak out if you hear this.
Call me as soon as you get my message.
Where's the culprit? Who is it?
What happened to the guy who was caught before?
We just released him.
Who's the culprit?
The culprit is...
Honey.
That punk won't divorce me.
I need our property divided to let you live at ease.
- That's Mom. What is she saying? - Honey.
- Who is she talking to? - Stay quiet.
Are you crazy? I won't take this to court.
I have an idea.
I punctured the tire like I said before.
I'll drive on the highway before we go to court.
I'll get in a car accident and receive an insurance payment.
Then he will be the prime suspect.
And he will have no choice.
He wants to make it 1 to 4,
but it will be a done deal before a trial begins.
- Isn't that a great idea? - That crazy wench.
And that's not it.
Once he's caught as the culprit,
the house will be mine.
I think I'm so smart.
Honey, you know what?
I don't even need my children. All I want is you.
You should hurry and divorce your wife as well.
- You can't change your mind. - That's enough.
- I love you. - Gosh, wait.
There are so many call recordings that it will take more than a day...
to listen to them all.
Did you really have to play it like that?
Do you even not care how they'd feel to hear that?
I had no choice.
I have to tell them about the culprit.
Where did you get this?
You said you couldn't find her phone.
The paramour's wife hid it...
at the hospital right after the accident.
The couple plotted it together to extort money from Oh Maeng Ja.
She was afraid she'd get caught,
so she's been hiding the phone.
My gosh.
The witness pointed you as the culprit...
because you looked like Oh Maeng Ja.
Like you just heard,
the accident happened because Oh Maeng Ja punctured her tire...
to receive an insurance payment for her lover.
It turned out to be her fabrication.
Does anyone...
have objections?
Even my heart is trembling now.
You guys must be devastated now.
Did Dad know about that?
About Mom's paramour?
He did.
He asked the detective not to tell you about it.
He didn't want to hurt you.
It's all over now. Let's just not think about it.
You didn't have dinner yet. You must be hungry.
Let's eat something.
Auntie.
What?
Where's Dad?
I saw something in the album earlier.
The photo he took in Saudi Arabia.
Dad was even younger than me in the photo.
He was just in his 20s.
But he worked in the hot desert...
to support his wife and children.
He was even younger than me.
I thought Dad had always been so old.
He lost his son at such a young age.
I can't even imagine how he hung in there.
What's the big deal about the shabby baby clothes...
