You must've been surprised
by that unexpected call from me.

I called you because there's something
I must tell you.

You have a daughter.

WE HEREBY APPOINT KANG YEH-SUH
AS SCHOOL PRESIDENT

A party?

CERTIFICATE OF APPOINTMENT

Treat other families to celebrate Yeh-suh
becoming school president?

We used to gather very often
when Young-jae's family was here.

But since Woo-joo's family moved here,

the families have never gathered.

Come to think of it,
the families have never had...

a gathering
since Woo-joo's family moved here.

And we never threw a welcoming party
for them. That's not good.

Make sure you invite
Professor Hwang's family.

I will, of course.

It'll wash away
your decade-old resentment.

Resentment? There's no such thing.

Shall we have a glass of wine?

I'll go take Yeh-suh's snack to her first.

No, I'll do it. Give it to me.

-You'll do it?
-Yes.

EPISODE 9

Take it easy.

-I was getting a little hungry.
-Really?

Here.

I'll frame the certificate
of appointment...

and hang it right there for you.

Hye-na withdrew her candidacy,
so I never got to compete with her.

Would someone with the confidence to win
withdraw from the election?

She obviously ran away
because she knew she'd lose.

As stated in Sun Tzu's The Art of War,

the supreme art of war is
to subdue the enemy without fighting.

Really?

Frankly, I haven't been feeling
so great about it.

What are you talking about?

You're the true winner.

Here. Drink it before it gets cold.

I CALLED YOU
BECAUSE THERE'S SOMETHING I MUST TELL YOU

YOU HAVE A DAUGHTER

Hello?

Hello?

Is it you, Eun-hye?

You're Kim Eun-hye, right?

What do you want now?

I'm sorry.

But our relationship
already ended 18 years ago.

Don't ever call me again.

Honey.

Was Yeh-suh happy?

Hey. No, she was nonchalant about it.

She's not exactly the warm-hearted type,

but deep down, I bet she was really happy.

She might even write in her diary
that her dad...

brought her snacks today.

You should do this more often.

Okay, sure.
There's nothing hard about that.

Thank you.

Imagine what would've happened...

if you had disapproved of Coach Kim
until the end.

I sincerely thank you
for having faith in me.

There's no need to thank me.

You did well.

He'll take revenge saying
I ruined his reputation.

I'll be under anesthesia,
lying on the operating table.

Who knows what he might do to me?

My gosh.

He tends to hold a huge grudge.

No one knows what he might do.

What if he makes a mistake
on purpose and says...

it was because he had VIP syndrome...

and was only trying to do a good job?

My gosh, stop whining.

Will you please let me sleep?

You're so cold-hearted.

Your husband's about to get
a life or death surgery.

So how... How can you sleep?

Joon-sang might think you're annoying,
but do you really think...

he'd mess up the surgery?

Do I think he'd mess up the surgery?

If he drills the wrong area,

I might get an infection.

If he cuts the wrong nerve,
my ankle might get paralyzed.

If he cuts an artery or vein,

I might die from excessive...

Repeat after me.

Professor Kang is the deity
of back surgeries.

What?

Your body doesn't belong to yourself only.

Soo-hwan and I are practically
getting the surgery with you.

How will you push through
if you can't trust your doctor?

Control your mind.

You need to believe it
with your entire body.

Professor Kang is the deity
of back surgeries.

Say it.

Gosh, say it.

Professor Kang is... Must I do this?

Just say it. My goodness.

Professor Kang is the deity
of back surgeries.

-Louder!
-Professor Kang...

is the deity of back surgeries.

Professor Kang is the deity
of back surgeries.

Professor Kang is the deity
of back surgeries.

-Hey.
-Yes?

How many rounds of alcohol
did Professor Kang have last night?

I'm not sure.
I went home after the third round.

But he probably drank a lot more.

He... He can't be drunk right now, right?

Honey, did you forget?

Professor Kang is the deity
of back surgeries.

-Yes, he is.
-Everyone, repeat after me.

Professor Kang is the deity
of back surgeries.

-He's the deity.
-He's the deity.

-He's the deity.
-Soo-han, say it!

He's the deity!

Good luck, honey!

Okay. Don't worry, my son.

-Honey, good luck. Bye.
-Okay.

Honey. Stay strong.

Jin Jin...

Professor Kang is the deity
of back surgeries.

Professor Kang is...

Did you make the cut?

-Yes, Professor Kang.
-I made a nice and clean cut.

What's this?

-Why did you make such a big cut?
-Pardon?

It's over ten centimeters.

And why did you use huge forceps?

You... You asked me
to make a nice, big cut.

What?

What's this?

Have you gone mad?

You just cut his nerve.

What? Did... Did I do that?

Of course, it was you.
Do you think it was me?

How could you make the same mistake again?

Then...

will Professor Woo...

Are you asking because you don't know?

His ankles will get paralyzed,
so he won't be able to run,

and he won't be able
to walk properly either.

What... What should we do, Professor Kang?

Is there no way to fix this?

I'm sorry, Professor Woo.

-What am I going to do?
-Pass me that.

Here you go.

You little punk. How dare you backstab me?

My legs...

-My legs...
-What's wrong?

-What is it?
-My... My legs...

What's the matter?

Did you have another nightmare?

No.

It was just a weird dream.

Gosh, you really drive me crazy.

You're so weak-hearted.

You even ran to the ER because
the cotton part of the swab fell off...

while you were picking your ears.

It was just a weird dream!

Go back to sleep!

My gosh.

Gosh, my back.

She entered the Department
of Korean Language Education...

of Sungjoo University in 1996.

But she failed to complete...

her teaching practice hours
during her senior year,

so she couldn't graduate.

She failed to complete
her teaching practice hours?

It was essential to teach
for at least 16 days...

out of the four week period,
but she failed to do so.

She apparently quit after 15 days.

She only had to teach one more day,
but she quit?

I'm sure she knew
she had to complete that to graduate.

I'm sure she had a reason behind that.

Find that out no matter what.

Yes, ma'am.

What's her job?

She's a children's book author
who started her career 15 years ago...

by winning a competition
with Walnut Tree Garden.

However, she hasn't released
any sequels after that.

She hasn't written another book
for 15 years?

What's the story about?

A mother who was living happily
with her 12 kids in a house...

that had a garden with walnut trees...

one day finds out
that her youngest child went missing.

So she crosses over nine paths
and fights all sorts of monsters.

And in the end,
she finds her missing child.

What about her personal life?

She got remarried to her current husband?

Gosh, I didn't know that at all.

They say you need to know your enemy
in order to win.

I thought it'd be better for you to know.

Thanks to you,
I'm holding a winning hand now.

Anyway,

as a teacher
who used to take care of Young-jae,

I'd like to prevent the unfortunate
happening of Young-jae's family...

becoming some kind of gossip
that people talk about over drinks.

Yes, of course.

I'm going to stop that from happening
for Myung Joo's sake.

My goodness, that's unbelievable.

That divorcee got lucky
after she remarried her current husband.

Getting a divorce and remarrying
isn't seen as a flaw these days.

I know it's not a flaw,
but it's just funny.

The only reason she's not obsessed...

with Woo-joo's studies is
because he's not her actual son.

But she acted so refined and laid back.

"Woo-joo got tutoring lessons for math
because he wanted to,"

"but other than that,
he never got any private lessons."

What a joke.

It is upsetting that she looked down on us
for being so obsessed...

with private education
for the sake of our kids.

She's so nosy
and acted like she cared for the kids,

and she even got rid of the book club.

It turns out, she's a stepmother
who never had a child of her own.

She keeps calling herself a writer...

and saying she wants to turn
Young-jae's story into a novel.

Seo-jin, will you let her do it?

Can you give this to her?

It's an invitation for a party
we're throwing for Yeh-suh.

This is yours.

Will you teach her a lesson at the party?

Sounds good, Seo-jin. This time,
let's teach her a serious lesson.

SHINHWA HIGH SCHOOL

Let's eat! Let's go.

-Let's go.
-Let's go!

Here's a slice for my daughter.

KANG YEH-SUH

Do you want to have lunch with me?

HWANG WOO-JOO

My, Mr. Vice President.

Is everything going well?

Can I join you?

I guess you don't like eggplant either.

Same here.

Now that you're the school president,

you should work on changing the menu
to suit our taste.

Woo-joo!

Anyhow, Yeh-suh, congratulations
on becoming the school president.

Thanks.

Are you congratulating her?

Yeh-suh, congratulations.

Thanks.

I heard why you had to withdraw
your candidacy.

What do you mean?

I heard your mom passed away.

Hye-na is strong,
so I know she'll get through it.

Sure thing. I'm very tough, you know.

I'm proud of you.

On that note,
I'll give you a piece of my pork cutlet.

Hey, Yeh-suh is the one
who needs to eat more and power up.

She's the school president now.

Eat up.

Hye-na? She congratulated you?

Yes. Isn't it weird?

She's changed a little
since her mom passed away.

How has she changed?

I mean, she wanted to have lunch
with me today.

And she gave me the pork cutlet
Woo-joo gave her...

Anyway,
she's been acting a little strange.

Really? Hye-na did that?

Yes.

But I must say, she's impressive.

I don't think I can even live a day
without you, Mom.

Oh, I found out that I'll be volunteering
at Onjungwon tomorrow.

Onjungwon?
Your grandma volunteers there too.

The son grew up into a brave mole.

He could even lift
a huge boulder so easily.

"What? This is as light as a feather."

He grew up into such a confident,
strong mole.

His mom and dad decided to find...

the most wonderful bride
in the world for their son.

I heard you're now the school president.

You get good grades,
and you're pretty as well.

Your mom must be so proud of you.

Your daughter got
into a good university as well.

I wouldn't say that.

I regret sending her to a school abroad
at such a young age.

I really have to do a better job
with my younger kid.

Yeh-suh,
what's it like to study with Coach Kim?

Is it helpful?

She goes to the same church as me.

-Don't worry.
-I see.

Yes, it's certainly helpful
for college admissions.

Right? Then...

Grandma, I have to go.
Mr. Jo is here to pick me up.

All right.
Will you volunteer here again next week?

No, I'll go back to the nursing home
where I usually volunteer.

-I'll be off, then.
-Okay.

-Take care.
-Bye, Yeh-suh.

How convenient. She even arranges
all the volunteering activities.

Madam Yoon,
I'd love to hire this coach too.

Can I meet your daughter-in-law? Please?

Your tea will get cold. Drink up.

This coach must be very special.

I've used all my connections,
but I still don't know who she is.

WALNUT TREE GARDEN

You evil monster, who makes soup...

with children's souls to fill yourself up.

I will puncture your heart
and save all the children.

Byeol.

Even if Mom has to walk
througha field of snakes,

mountains of blades, and the utter abyss,

I absolutely won't give up on you.

Because I'm your mom, Byeol.

Mom.

The accident caused brain stem lesion,

and it also caused damage
to the frontal and temporal lobes.

We tried our best,

but we're not sure when she'll be able
to regain consciousness.

And even if she does regain consciousness,

there're no guarantees
that she'll be able to lead a normal life.

No.

That's not my child.

No way.

-Mrs. Kim.
-No.

Mrs. Kim.

-Mrs. Kim.
-She's not my daughter.

Did you find out
about Soo-im's teaching practice?

Are you still looking into it?

-Honey, shouldn't you get ready?
-What?

We should go.

Shall we skip it if you're not up for it?

Even at the party celebrating
my promotion,

you ended up getting upset.

No, let's go.

But don't be surprised, honey.

You might see my turning kick today.

What?

Let's hope I don't have to put
my taekwondo skills to use.

What's taking you so long? We'll be late.

I'm coming!

I'm coming.

Why are they throwing a party?

What's going on this time?

What are you mumbling about?

Yeh-suh's mom.

When she throws a party like this,

there has to be a reason.

And I'm just wondering what that could be.

She just wants to have a good time
with everyone.

What other reason could there be?

Next time,
we should treat everyone to dinner.

Tell Se-ri to visit during the holidays.

"Welcoming party for
Harvard University student, Cha Se-ri."

It's such a nice reason
to gather everyone.

Does he want to show her off that much?

Excuse me.

Everyone, thank you for coming.

-Thank you.
-Congratulations.

-Congratulations.
-Congratulations.

-Congratulations.
-Thank you.

Congratulations, Ms. Han.

My goodness.
Seo-jin, your necklace is so pretty.

-It looks so elegant.
-Really?

Gosh, this is such an honorable event.

The fact that Yeh-suh and Suh-joon
became the leaders of Shinhwa High...

is not only an honor for their families,

but it's also an honor for Sky Castle,
Professor Kang.

That's too grand of a speech.

Of course, it's an honor.

If our kids grow up...

and become competent enough
to live in Sky Castle after us,

it would be very honorable
in preserving Sky Castle's tradition.

Yes, of course. Sky Castle's tradition...

is the best heritage
we can pass on to our kids.

Soo-im, Soo-han told me...

that you're currently writing a novel
about Young-jae.

You're going to write a book
about Young-jae?

You didn't set the setting as Sky Castle,
did you?

She wouldn't have done that.
Jin-hee's probably mistaken.

Right, Soo-im?

You're free to write
whatever you wish as a writer.

But did you get permission
from Professor Park Soo-chang?

I don't write reportage.
I write children's books.

I'm not going to write factual events...

about what happened to Young-jae
and his family.

The background setting
is Sky Castle, but...

The background setting is Sky Castle?

Then that will obviously damage
Sky Castle's honor...

and ruin its reputation as well.

Is that what you're worried about
right now, Professor Cha?

What's important isn't Sky Castle.

I'm worried about Young-jae and Soo-chang.

But still,

it won't be good for people to find out...

that something like that happened
in Sky Castle.

Yes, that's exactly my point.

If this was an apartment,
the price would go down in an instant.

The price will drop first.

Did you...

seriously just say that?

Did I say anything wrong?

There are so many kids
like Young-jae these days.

It should be the happiest moment
of their lives,

but the adults are ruining everything.

Don't you think people should find out
about it through books?

Why don't you stay still, honey?

Emile Zola accused the Dreyfus Affair.

-You know him, right?
-No, I don't.

If he didn't muster up his courage,

do you think it would've been possible
to tear down the French people's...

crazy behavior
of trying to frame and kill...

a certain person
just because he was a Jew?

You're absolutely right.

A writer has a duty to accuse
social problems of the era they live in.

I don't care if it's their duty or not.

Why does she have to write
about Sky Castle of all places?

The fact that none of you were affected
by the tragic event...

of Young-jae's family
made me feel miserable.

The competition to get into college
ends up killing so many kids every year.

But our society isn't changing at all.

And that made me feel
both very sad and miserable.

Do you feel as miserable as Soo-chang?

I'm asking if you feel
as miserable as Soo-chang.

That's why she wishes to write that novel.

She wants to make sure nothing like that
ever happens again.

A doctor who used to save people
with a scalpel...

is hunting animals
and barely managing to get by each day.

But you're going to use his misery...

just so you could earn money?

What are you talking about?

Don't you think
you're crossing the line here?

You think I'm crossing the line?

Let's be honest.
Because of what happened to Soo-chang,

you were able to get
your current job and house...

and live a comfortable life.
How much more brazen can you get?

Professor Kang.

Can we talk for a moment?

Honey.

Don't worry.

I'm sorry. Please excuse me.

What kind of attitude is this
in the middle of a meal?

Professor Kang.

My gosh.

They say,
"One rotten apple spoils the barrel."

This is unbelievable.

If you must write that book
regardless of everyone's disapproval,

I'm going to hold you responsible
until the end...

as an attorney,
and not as a resident of Sky Castle.

Get up, honey. Let's go.

You can go first.

Please give us our dessert.

Seung-hye. Jin-hee.

I'm sorry, but can you please excuse us
for a minute?

I have something to say to Seo-jin.

Jin-hee, we should go.

You heard Professor Cha, right?

I'll keep my eyes on you.

I'll sue you for libel.

Please give us our dessert.

Can you also excuse us for a while?

I want you to apologize.

You shouldn't have called us
brazen earlier.

You're the one who should apologize.

You are the one who picked the fight.

I really can't seem to talk to you.

You dared to do surgery on my employee.

And you even made me seem
like a shameless doctor...

who only cares about making money.

Let's drop that subject.

You already rationalized yourself
saying it wasn't overtreatment.

So we won't reach a conclusion
even if we talk more about it.

"Rationalize"?

What did you just say?

Are you calling me a fool?

Professor Kang, why are you doing this?

Please calm down. Professor Kang.

Let go.

If you keep doing this,
I won't hold in my anger either.

What did you say?
What are you going to do, then?

Are you not scared of anything
because you've gained...

President Choi's favor?

How dare you act up?

Let go while I'm being nice.
Stop acting like a loser.

What did you say? Loser?

You little jerk. Hey!

You dodged?

Well, that's not very polite. You jerk.

-Hey, that hurts.
-No, his arm...

-That hurts.
-I need to get surgery. Professor.

-Hey, it hurts.
-Please forgive him.

Forgive me for what? You punk.

What's wrong with you guys?

Please let go of his arm.

His arm...

Hey, you scumbag!

-Get back here!
-Chief Kang.

Hey!

Chief Kang! My gosh. Hold on.

-There, my back. Don't press on it.
-Okay, your back.

-My back, right here.
-Call an ambulance.

-Gosh...
-My back. Could you please...

Jin Jin!

Gosh, call an ambulance.

-Hurry.
-How... Chief Kang, help me here.

Let me ask you a favor for one last time.

I...

can't give up on Young-jae's story.

I will write about it. Don't stop me.

Can you still not gauge the situation?

This isn't a fight between the two of us.

It'll be everyone in Sky Castle
against you.

How could I stop it?

So you'll just watch
after starting a fire.

Fine.

I'll make sure I write about it
no matter what you do.

While disguising your desire
for fame and success...

as your duty as a writer, right?

What did you just say?

You're sad about how the competition
surrounding college admissions...

is killing so many students?

Do you even understand
what it feels like to lose a child?

Can you even fathom
the depth of their pain?

You've never even given birth.

Hey!

Mi-hyang, you know
that I've been going easy on you, right?

What? Will you tell everyone
that I'm actually Kwak Mi-hyang?

Do you think I'm like you?

You keep provoking me,
but I've been patient with you.

Next time, I'll actually kick you.

WHO KILLED THAT WOMAN?

SKY CASTLE

Get a signature from every family.

We must fight as a group to stop her.

Seo-jin, don't you think
we're blowing it out of proportion?

I mean, I did as you said,

but it's not like her book
has been published.

It's a fiction,
and it won't have real names.

I'm not sure about other things,

but she'll describe it as a place
where doctors' families live.

With a few minutes on the Internet,
people will find out that it's here.

Besides,
what will happen if people find out...

that those of us here spend six figures
on an admission coach?

College admission
is such a sensitive topic.

We'll become everyone's enemy.

Yes, you're totally right.

My friends already envy me so much
for living here.

What if they find out
about the admission coach?

It'll give them another reason to hate me.

Anyway, if we get everyone's signature
and show her,

it'll make her uncomfortable, right?

Of course.

Didn't you hear what Professor Cha said?

He said he'd sue her for libel.

Oh, okay. I'll work on collecting
signatures starting tomorrow.

All right, thanks.

Honk, honk. I stepped aside
upon hearing the car honk.

A new family must be moving
into the house next door.

I wonder if they know
someone died in that house.

You're still awake?

Oh, boy. I can't fall asleep.

Are you all right, honey?

I felt daunted as I wasn't sure
what the first sentence should be,

but everything's coming together now.

You should go to bed first.

IT'S ALREADY BEEN A MONTH
SINCE SU-MIN'S MOM DIED

-Honey.
-Yes.

By any chance, is this because of Yeon-du?

It seemed like you were looking
at Yeon-du's photo earlier.

I'm wondering
if you still haven't moved on.

I shouldn't move on.

How could I forget that?

During Lee Soo-im's teaching practice,

a student in her class
was stressed out about her grades.

Apparently, she locked horns...

with the girl's homeroom teacher
who wanted to turn a blind eye.

The teacher wanted to turn a blind eye?

Why?

What happened? Did you get hurt?

Gosh.

Can't you just pretend you saw nothing?

Yeon-du.

Yeon-du!

Yeon-du.

Yeon-du!

I told you not to mind her.

Even her parents have given up.
What can a mere trainee teacher do?

Complete your teaching practice
without causing trouble and leave.

How could you say that
as her homeroom teacher?

They say stupidity is a dangerous thing.

Her father is a university professor.

A professor of psychology at that.

Even when her parents
have given up on her,

who are you to intervene?

If her parents have given up,

you have to help her as her teacher.

You just don't get it, do you?

She hurts herself all the time.

Everyone from her parents...

to her psychiatrist has given up.

You say she keeps hurting herself,
and yet you still don't see it.

She's telling you she wants to live.
She's screaming for help.

You have to hold her hand.

She needs someone she can confide in
to get through this.

She just keeps saying
she wants to be alone.

Gosh, seriously. Get out. Get out already.

Yeon-du. Yeon-du!

Call me. You have my number, right?

-Gosh, get out.
-Yeon-du, Yeon-du!

I don't think she'll give up easily.

I think it's more than
just an interesting story to her.

-What do we do?
-You don't know the answer?

We must stop her.

Ms. Lee Soo-im?

Hello, this is Kim Joo-young.

Oh, hello.
I was thinking of visiting you again...

as I didn't hear from you.

Thank you for calling.

I heard you have questions
about Young-jae.

May I decide on the time and location?

Yes, by all means.

You want to meet there?

LOVE ONE ANOTHER. AS I HAVE LOVED YOU,
SO YOU MUST LOVE ONE ANOTHER

JOHN 13:34

Can you guess why...

I wanted to meet here?

I thought it's because
you'd like to tell me only the truth.

When I heard you're writing a book
about Young-jae's story,

I wanted to do everything
in my power to help you.

Tell me if there's anything
you'd like to know.

Can I be straightforward with you?

Yes, go ahead.

I briefly read Young-jae's diary.

Why did you incite him
to take revenge on his parents?

I'm sorry I didn't tell you in advance...

that he had received
psychological therapy.

But he's all better now.

The doctor even told me
that it won't bother with his studies.

Ms. Lee, Young-jae has no will
to study whatsoever.

You can take someone to the riverside,

but you can't force them
to drink the water.

No, Coach Kim.

Make him drink the water
even if you have to force him.

I'm sorry. That's not something I can do.

Coach Kim, please.

Please just get him accepted.

I know you can do it.

I'll do anything you want me to do...

as long as...

you can get him accepted.

Young-jae hates me.

He hates me for kicking Ga-eul
out of the house.

You can use Ga-eul...

or his hatred toward me.

Is there really no way?

You want me to provoke...

his hatred and thirst for revenge
toward his own mother?

Will you be okay with that?

Yes.

Yes, I'll be fine.

I'm sure everything will turn out
for the better...

once he gets accepted.

I'm sure his thirst for revenge
will disappear.

He'll eventually understand
that everything was for his own good.

After all, he's my son.

I was foolish enough
to think like Ms. Lee.

I thought he'd no longer want
to take revenge once he got accepted...

and believed that his relationship
with his parents would get better.

It was all my fault. It was because of me.

I told myself I'd never let
another student end up like Yeon-du.

Did... Did you just say...

Yeon-du?

No, never mind.

It's nothing.

Are you talking about...

Song Yeon-du of Jisuh High School?

Do you know Yeon-du?

I'm sorry,

but how do you know...

I was her private tutor
until that accident.

But how do you know her, Soo-im?

What?

Oh, I also taught her
for a while in the past.

I see.

Her family became a wreck
after what happened.

In the end, they immigrated to Canada...

along with all their other kids.

I'm... I'm sorry. I should go.

Thank you for making time to meet me.

I'll do anything you want me to do...

as long as...

you can get him accepted.

Does that mean you'll bear with it...

regardless of
what the consequences may be?

I just asked if you're willing to bear
with the consequences.

Yes.

Yes, I will.

I'll bear with it.
Of course, I'll bear with it.

Drive properly! Okay?

My goodness.

-Are you okay?
-Yes.

Are you okay?

Have you gone mad?

Are you trying to get yourself killed?

Yeon-du.

Yeon-du. Yeon-du. Wait.

Yeon-du. Yeon-du.

Ms. Lee.

Sir, can you stop the car for a second?

Yeon-du! Yeon-du!

Yeon-du. Yeon...

Yeon-du.

Yeon-du.

Yeon-du!

Ms. Lee, please help me.

I want...

to live.

Drink up.

You can manage the emails
we get from the school.

I'll just follow your lead.

That's right.

We need to support and lead each other...

as a team now.

But it's a problem
that we think so differently.

What do you mean we think differently?

How is the Dreyfus Affair...

any similar to what happened to Young-jae?

The mad Frenchmen...

who framed Dreyfus of being a spy...

is not the same as us
who loved Young-jae and Myung Joo...

as our neighbors, are we?

Do you think we're different?

The crazy hatred toward the Jews.

The collectivism of the tenants
who only care about Sky Castle's honor.

I think they're both the same.

Seung-hye.

I think it's time you choose your path.

What path?

Either focus your energy
on your kids' grades like me...

or be like Soo-im and pursue
that ridiculous morality of yours.

You want to send your kids to SNU,

but you also want to be a good mom.

But if you keep chasing after two rabbits,

you might end up losing both of them.

I think there's been a misunderstanding.

I never chased after you
who's only crazy about your kids' grades.

I must've been mistaken for thinking
that you'd be like your husband.

Please give this to Professor Cha.

And I'm guessing
I don't have to remind you...

no one should find out about this, right?

Was this the reason...

why you yielded the presidency
to Yeh-suh's mom?

Korean. English.

Math. Economics.

Korean History.

What about the other subjects? Is this it?

Why are you asking me?

Ask her yourself.
You're the one who made the deal.

Do you even know how much this is worth?

There are five semesters left
until they enter college.

And that's ten tests in total.

Imagine how much Coach Kim gets...

after she gives out
expected questions ten times.

This is practically a heap of money.

It costs more than 100,000 dollars.

Are you happy
that you got that expensive book...

of expected questions for free?

You were a bit too much at times,
but you still remained...

as a father who wanted to educate
our kids the right way.

You were never the type
who'd use tricks to enhance their grades.

You need to face reality.

Do you know what the purpose
of education is in Korea?

It's to help students be good
at taking tests.

-What?
-Once they get good grades,

they'll end up studying harder.

The memory of success...

will act as their motivation.

And it's a parent's role
to give them that memory.

You just wait and see.

Our kids will get straight A's this time
no matter what.

Eat up.
My wife's really worried about you.

I tell myself that you'll be fine
since you're cheerful and smart,

but then I find myself wondering
if you've eaten or not.

I'm doing well.

I know my mom will feel upset
if she sees me having a hard time,

so I never skip my meals.

Don't worry, Ms. Lee.

Yes, that's good.

Should I show you
around the neighborhood after we eat?

Sure.

This question's really hard.

Let me see.

It's "C".

Because...

You don't know either.

We're always the only ones
in the beginner's class.

This is so annoying.

If we fail again, we'll have to study
with elementary school kids.

-What is this? Gosh.
-My gosh.

How embarrassing.

It's a quadratic equation.

Should I solve the question for you?

Consider yourselves lucky.

She's really good at math.

In order to measure this line,

you need the coordinates of both A and B.

Now, you need to times four,
the bottom line,

by four, the height,
then divide that by two.

-What would be the answer?
-Eight.

Yeh-bin, you're really smart.

Yeh-bin, if you manage to meet
the right teacher,

your level will rise in no time.

You teach so well.

I want you to become my tutor.

Oh, really?

But I also need to study,

so I can only teach one person.

One person?

I'll see you.

Hey, where are you going?

I got everyone's signature...

apart from the ones who are abroad.

It's a real hot potato.

They all think we should stop her
from writing the book.

-Seung-hye didn't sign.
-Exactly.

Out of all the women here,
she was the only one.

She's the only one who didn't sign.

Since we're on the subject,
I really don't like her.

She's the backstabbing type.

She already played her role
as the obsessive mom...

and sent Se-ri to Harvard.

Now, she acts all high and noble.

"Don't you know Emile Zola?"

No, I don't. So what?

Send out an announcement
to all the residents.

Let's get started.

Mom. Mom.

-Hello.
-My goodness.

Why were you calling out
for your mom like that?

Yeh-bin, what's the matter?

That's where Ki-joon and Suh-joon lives.

This is where Soo-han lives.

And this is where Yeh-suh lives.

You want to get private lessons
from Hye-na?

Yes.

I'm so proud of you.

I can't believe you're voluntarily asking
to get private lessons.

Did you say her name's Hye-na?
Who's Hye-na?

Did she offer to give you private lessons?

No, Soo...

She said she can only teach one person.

I want to pass the level test.

It's embarrassing to study
with elementary school kids.

So who's this Hye-na girl?

She's Yeh-suh's classmate.

Classmate? Goodness.

How can a high school kid
do private lessons?

Exactly.

Yeh-bin, I'll find a better teacher...

No, I enjoy being taught by Hye-na.

Gosh.

Forget it.

She must really like Hye-na.

How did she get her so hooked?

Hye-na?

She congratulated you?

Yes. Isn't it weird?

She's changed a little
since her mom passed away.

Hey, I need to make a phone call.

Let me ask you something.

I know you wouldn't do this,

but did you tell Hye-na...

that I asked you to make her give up
on becoming the school president?

Do you think I'm crazy?

My son's future depends on you.

She got the message
as soon as I told her to give up.

Seo-jin, you really
should be careful of Hye-na.

She's really brazen, you know.
She's not scared of adults.

She even managed to threaten me
and take 3,000 dollars.

Really?

Okay, thank you.

Coach Kim, I called because I got worried.

I think Hye-na found out
thatI was the one who made her...

give up on the election.

And it bothers me that she keeps
roaming around Yeh-suh and Yeh-bin.

Don't worry.

Okay, bye.

Mr. Jo.

I want you to keep an eye on Hye-na.

Kim Hye-na.

Kim Hye-na.

Is Kim Hye-na here?

I want you to check this again.

Is Kim Hye-na here?

Kim Hye-na.

YOU MUST'VE BEEN SURPRISED
BY THAT UNEXPECTED CALL FROM ME

YOU MUST'VE BEEN SURPRISED
BY THAT UNEXPECTED CALL FROM ME

What did you just say?

I said you should have Hye-na
move into your place.

Hye-na? Why?

Wouldn't it be wise for you
to keep the ticking bomb close by...

while you get rid of the detonator?

"Ticking bomb"?

Not only did you make Hye-na
withdraw from the election,

but you also made Do-hoon's mom
stop supporting her financially.

On top of that,

she even lost her mother,
who was her only family.

Hye-na now has nothing to be afraid of.

Do I know you?

Hello, I'm Yeh-suh's classmate,

Kim Hye-na.

Frankly, this is my first time
making this kind of proposition.

Why did Yeh-suh's grades drop?

Whose fault is it that I ruined the exam?

It's all your fault, Mom.

Hye-na is the best pacemaker
who can toughen up Yeh-suh.

I heard you told Woo-joo's mom
that you'd help her with her novel.

Once, I, too, had a child,
who was like a blessing to me.

What do you say? Will you keep writing it?

What are you so afraid of
that you must fight against me as a group?

Are you that insecure?
Why must you twist every word...

Must you speak in that manner?

You fully understand
what the underprivileged go through.

So?

What is it that you want to say?
