(Previously on "Confession")

For all the others who were wrongly robbed of their lives...

...I promise that I'll reveal the truth.

Sometimes, the truth...

...can cause more agony.

It's like insurance.

You have to make it look like an accident.

No matter what.

Betray? It's just business.

Anyway, now that I'm here with the two of you at a restaurant...

...it reminds me of something.

Was it at Hwaye?

Hwaye, the place where your father shot and killed Lt. Colonel Cha.

Why Choi Pil–soo had to commit murder.

As long as I keep my mouth shut...

...it will be buried forever.

Your son is digging into the Lt. Colonel Cha case.

What if he's no longer safe?

Cho Kyung–sun died.

Do you really think you can find...

...the truth you're looking for?

No, are you confident you can then make them stand trial?

I think threatening him...

...just backfired.

It's surprising that even scum like him

would care about family.

He requested that...

...I represent him.

Please allow me to do this.

The last surgery I performed...

...was 10 years ago.

A heart from a patient who was brain–dead was donated...

...and the person who received the heart transplant...

...was given a new life.

That brain–dead patient...

...was my son.

So what did...

...that heart say?

Did my son's heart say...

...he could represent the man...

...who murdered him?

[K-Plus Asia ver.] Confession E11 Ripped & Synced by ordinaryguy92

So there was someone at Hwang Kyo–sik's place?

A man in his mid–30s.

But he vanished in a flash.

Yes.

Choon–ho, what if Hwang Kyo–sik is...

No, I'm sure that's not the case.

If he had indeed whacked him...

...he wouldn't have had the guts to face a cop.

Exactly.

–Hey, did you find anything? –Yes, sir.

I guess he used the stairs.

There was nothing from the elevator.

He was caught on the security camera

by the entrance, but...

Darn it.

Jeez, for goodness' sake.

Should we be grateful that we have this?

Or should we say this is completely useless?

What's up with this terribly low resolution?

We must catch him no matter what.

Next news. Do you remember the Eunseo–gu murder case?

It's better known as a double jeopardy case.

Lawyer Choi Do–hyun, who got the accused

acquitted using the double jeopardy rule...

...will be representing another suspect

in the same case...

which is causing quite a stir.

(Mount Sojung)

For now, go into hiding until the trial is over.

Yes, sir.

Go stay at this place.

I'll tell you when I have a plan.

–What's going to happen to me... –Jeez.

I already told you I'll let you know

when I have a plan.

(Gisan University Hospital)

Yes, we're on our way now.

The stab wound on my abdomen hasn't even healed yet.

I'm being transferred already?

Don't you think you're too heartless?

You'll be at the detention center where you used to work.

Wouldn't you be more comfortable there?

You're making it sound as if you're doing this out of consideration.

By the way, have you caught Hwang Kyo–sik yet?

Catch him and kneel him down in front of me.

–Shut it, you punk. –There he is!

–Is it true? –Tell us!

–Say a few words. –Please give us a comment.

(The Law Offices of Choi Do–hyun)

What's up? What's going on?

Are you looking all serious because you knew I'd be coming?

Look at that scowling face.

I told you not to represent him, didn't I?

I said it'd be different from Han Jong–gu's case.

I made myself clear to you.

It'll be meaningless unless I do it myself.

Then what's wrong? Why look so upset

when you've already made up your mind?

About my decision to represent Cho Ki–tak...

I've told Madam Jin as well.

I bet she's struggling with it more than I am.

I mean, it's the guy who killed her son.

What's going on with Hwang Kyo–sik?

We haven't tracked him down yet.

Without him...

...it'll be hard to prove that the murder

was ordered even if the trial takes place.

At his address...

Is Mr. Hwang Kyo–sik home?

No one by that name lives here.

There was a suspicious–looking man.

A suspicious–looking man?

I have no idea who he is.

He may be after Hwang Kyo–sik as well.

If he's also looking for Hwang Kyo– sik,

do you think he works for Chairman Oh?

Or do you think there's someone else involved?

I'm not sure. We'll have to find out now.

Do you want to grab a bite to eat?

No, I'm all right.

You need to look after yourself to be able to defend Cho Ki–tak...

...or whatever.

So, will you be...

...understanding about my decision?

You tackle the trial, and I'll oversee the investigation.

We'll do our own things and find out...

...who is behind it all.

Heo Jae–man, the suspect in the murder of Kim Sun–hee...

...who was found at a demolition site

in Eunseo–gu...

...was transferred to a detention center today.

Heo Jae–man was arrested with a stab wound.

He was transferred...

...to a detention center today

after receiving treatment for a week.

(Captain Ki Choon–ho)

Yes, Captain Ki.

What's going on?

Oh, I just wanted to see if you were okay.

We caught Cho Ki–tak, but we haven't been

able to uncover the truth yet.

Mr. Choi wants to find out

who's behind everything through him.

That person is the real culprit.

I know.

–But... –Right, even I'm this angry.

You must be...

I know how crazy it is.

Let me just say this though.

I'm sure the path Mr. Choi has chosen...

...isn't different from the path...

...your son was on.

–Who's that guy? –He must be a newbie.

What are you looking at? Eyes down!

Hey, isn't he one of the correctional officers?

–He is, right? –I think so.

–Hey, it is him. –Yes, you're right.

As for the Kim Sun–hee murder case...

...as soon as the prosecution gets the case...

...they'll close it with a life sentence.

Take care of it as quickly as possible.

Make sure the sentencing hearing...

...can take place this month.

I'll do my best, sir.

That's not a good enough answer. Just make it happen.

And one more thing.

Tell the prosecutor in charge...

...to focus solely on proving that he indeed killed Kim Sun–hee.

He shouldn't be distracted.

Is it related to another case?

Don't you know that the accused...

...is connected to the No Sun–hoo case?

You're so slow–witted.

If that punk...

...makes a confession regarding No Sun–hoo,

it'll draw attention to us.

So, just make sure the prosecutor stays focused on this case.

What is it? Do you think you had...

...nothing to do with the No Sun– hoo case?

(Eunseo–gu Demolition Site Murder Case)

(Case Report)

The Eunseo–gu demolition site murder case.

It was such a headache. Who knew this would happen?

I'm Prosecutor Lee Hyun–jun from the Northern Office.

Everyone glares at prosecutors at the beginning...

...but ends up practically begging

us during their trials.

So don't waste your energy.

We don't have time, so let's do this quickly.

Heo Jae–man.

Why did you kill Kim Sun–hee?

You're wrong.

I have a lot of time, Mr. Prosecutor.

Take your time.

Let's start when my attorney gets here.

You little piece of...

Are you sure you're not even going to reconsider the offer?

The role is presidential secretary for civil

affairs.

If you accept the position,

you'll be able to do whatever you want.

You'll have so much power.

I have no interest in things like that.

Also... we shouldn't turn a blind eye to this.

You're well aware of it.

What about evidence?

Do you have any evidence?

I have almost everything I need to back it up.

I'll write a report on it as soon as I wrap things up.

You're like a mouse fighting a gorilla.

You'll lose everything, and nothing else will happen!

Hey, the "success" you always talked about...

Is this what you meant by it?

–Sun–hoo. –I'll say this for one last time.

Do not...

...spend time with those scumbags.

I don't want to have to include your name in the report.

–Sun–hoo, I'm just worried about you...

–Prosecutor Yang In–bum.

I have to go.

That punk.

I guess you couldn't persuade him.

You said you two are best friends.

It's just that Prosecutor No...

...is extremely bullheaded.

He has no interest whatsoever in things like...

...getting a promotion or becoming successful.

I'm planning to transfer him to the countryside.

I know he's talking about evidence...

...but I'm sure he's just bluffing.

All right, sounds good.

Mr. Yang.

That phone call must've been stressful.

Here, let me pour you a drink.

Sir, that's enough.

I'm pouring you all this booze to show you how fond of you I am.

You want me to stop?

What's that idiot's name again?

No Sun–hoo?

If that punk causes setbacks with the project...

...how much longer do you think you can keep your job?

I'll try to persuade him again, sir.

Mr. Yang, I like you because you're quick–witted.

All right, have another drink.

Madam Jin.

I found out that you handled the case.

Madam Jin, this was...

These photos were found in Sun– hoo's camera.

The camera he had on him

on the day of the accident 10 years ago.

Do you still have nothing to tell me?

–How did you get these photos? –How did I get them?

Are you seriously asking me how I obtained these photos?

Prosecutor Yang In–bum.

I thought...

...you'd at least try to give excuses.

Obviously, Sun–hoo thought of you as his brother...

...when you never thought of him that way.

Only he thought you two were close.

What's going on with Hwang Kyo–sik?

He's totally fallen off the grid.

Nothing on his credit cards, his phone, and even his car.

Any chance that he's left the country?

I requested a travel ban right away,

but who knows.

If he stole someone's identity like Cho Ki–tak did...

Right.

Cho Ki–tak's trial is starting today, right?

–Yes. –All right.

–I hope it goes well. –I'll call you later.

Prosecution, state your reasons for indicting the defendant.

(Heo Jae–man's first hearing for the Kim Sun–hee murder)

Your Honor, Defendant Heo Jae– man...

...abducted the victim, Kim Sun– hee...

...confined her at his residence in Yulhyeon–dong, and killed her.

After that, he desecrated and abandoned her body...

...at a demolition site in Jinhyung–dong, Eunseo–gu.

According to Article 278 of the Criminal

Act, this is considered illegal confinement.

According to Article 250, he committed murder.

And according to Article 161...

...he is guilty of abandoning her corpse.

Defense Attorney, please make your opening statement.

The defendant admits all the charges

brought against him.

Defense Attorney...

...are you admitting he is guilty?

Yes, I am.

What the defendant did...

...is unforgivable regardless of why he did it.

As for all his charges,

I ask you to give him a punishment...

...that he deserves.

Defense Attorney, please think carefully

before you make any comments.

If you deliberately try to interfere

with the defendant's legal rights...

...you may face disciplinary action.

I'm aware.

Then may I go ahead and ask

the prosecution to impose a sentence?

Yes, Your Honor.

What are you doing?

What the heck are you doing now?

Your Honor.

Your Honor!

–What is it? –I have a statement to make.

Defendant, you can say it

when you're giving your closing argument.

I was ordered to kill Kim Sun–hee.

Defendant, are you saying...

...you were instigated to commit the murder?

Yes.

Your Honor.

Please ignore the defendant's statement.

He did not mention anything about it

when we were interviewing him.

The fact that he's bringing it up here in the courtroom...

...can only be seen as an attempt to

distract you from the charges against him.

Defendant.

Are you sure you were instigated to commit the murder?

Yes, I am sure.

Then let me ask you this question.

Who is the person...

...that instigated you to kill the victim?

It was Hwang Kyo–sik.

What is your relationship with him?

He was my superior when I was in the military.

Then where is he now?

That I do not know.

Your Honor, the defendant...

...is saying he was instigated by someone who is unidentifiable...

...just to make sure his crime can be seen as a contract killing.

Your Honor.

I think the defendant has been keeping

his lips sealed so far...

...in order to protect the person who instigated the crime.

It must've taken a lot for him...

...to make the confession we heard just now.

He decided to reveal that the crime...

...was instigated by someone else,

and I ask you to respect his decision.

Defendant.

Then why did Hwang Kyo–sik...

...order you to kill the victim?

I don't know either. I simply...

...followed the order I was given.

Your Honor.

Please summon Hwang Kyo–sik so that we can...

...ask him why he ordered the murder.

And I request that the next hearing be postponed...

...until Hwang Kyo–sik's attendance is confirmed.

Your Honor, the defendant is saying...

...he doesn't even know why

he was ordered to kill the victim...

...and he has no evidence to back up his claim.

We don't even know whether or not

this man really exists. By saying...

Hwang Kyo–sik does exist.

He is...

...the secretary of Chairman Oh...

...from Yukwang Corporation.

–What? –Yukwang Corporation?

Order.

We will not postpone the next hearing.

However, I will issue...

...a subpoena requesting

Hwang Kyo–sik's compulsory attendance.

Your Honor.

The court...

...must put the defendant's rights first

in the process of finding out the truth.

The defendant claims...

...that he was instigated to commit the murder.

Shouldn't we at least summon Mr. Hwang...

...and hear what he has to say?

(Hearing in Progress)

(Defendant)

What are you trying to do?

You knew everything, didn't you?

Hwang Kyo–sik or whatever his name is.

You cornered the defendant to make him...

...spill the beans when you knew everything.

What? To make the judge question him herself?

You and your crafty tricks. You haven't changed one bit.

Let me ask you one thing, then.

Why didn't Heo Jae–man disclose the fact...

...that he was instigated from the get–go?

He disclosed it today, so go ahead and summon Hwang Kyo–sik.

Isn't that the prosecution's job?

Last time, you used the double jeopardy rule.

This time, you'll use this instigator to get him out?

You know that the person who carried out the murder...

...will be prosecuted as well. I have to go.

This trial...

What are you trying to get out of it?

I'm simply trying to speak up for the defendant's rights.

"The defendant's rights"?

Don't be ridiculous.

Heo Jae–man cannot avoid a heavy punishment.

And I'm sure you know that.

You must have another agenda.

I bet there's something else...

...you want to reveal through Heo Jae–man's trial.

Madam Jin.

There's something...

...Yu–ri said to me a while ago.

She said...

...that we're looking for traces left by those whom we lost.

"Why did we lose them in the first place?

Was there anything I could've done to prevent it?"

She said she has many regrets.

I don't want to have any regrets.

Captain Ki called me.

He said that the path you chose...

...probably isn't different...

...from the path Sun–hoo was on.

I know that too.

But it's not easy...

...to control my feelings.

Can we say that we're now...

...one step closer to the truth that will be revealed...

...at the end of that path?

You asked for my permission.

I...

...give you my permission.

Please uncover...

...the truth.

–Good morning, Assemblyman Park. –Good morning.

We just got a call that your office has been assigned.

–Really? –You've been given...

...the best office in the assembly building.

That's not surprising. Keep up the good work.

(I'm revealing the truth about Assemblyman Park Si–kang.)

(Attachment: Observational Report on Park Si–kang)

(Information submission is complete.)

Assemblyman Park still hasn't called me.

Maybe he's not at the office yet.

82.1 percent of the votes have been counted so far...

...and it's been confirmed that Candidate No. 1...

...Park Si–kang, representing the

Bright Political Party, won the election.

–Park Si–kang! Park Si–kang!

–Candidate Park Si–kang has ranked first...

...in every poll during the campaign

and continued to lead by a wide margin.

–He'll join the National Assembly. –Park Si–kang! Park Si–kang!

–Park Si–kang! –Park Si–kang!

(Let's change Joongang–gu!

Wait, stop there.

Who is that?

I'm not sure.

She's wearing our uniform.

Wait, it's that woman.

She said she wanted to become a supporter.

(Case Report, kidnapping and murdering

Kim Sun–hee, abandonment of a dead body)

(Affidavit, Heo Jae–man)

–Hey, did you pull an all–nighter again?

–Hi there.

I think you're overworking yourself.

At least have something to eat.

Thank you. I'll eat it later.

You should eat it now.

Hello, Ha Yu–ri speaking.

Yes, I'm the daughter of Reporter Ha Myung–soo.

I see.

Thank you. Understood.

Whatever.

They should be ashamed to call themselves a news outlet.

Did you provide the information in the report to a news outlet?

I didn't send it to them expecting them to write about it.

I was certain they wouldn't do it.

But still, the word has spread already.

Now I'll use the standard tactics.

What do you mean by that?

I'm still working on it. I'll let you know when I start.

–Yu–ri. –I'm going to head out now.

Eat every bite of it, okay?

You got that?

Yes, I got it. Anyway, Yu–ri...

See you later.

The first trial was held today for Heo Jae–man, the new suspect of...

...the Eunseo–gu demolition site murder,

which received the public's attention...

...after the suspect was acquitted

based on the double jeopardy clause.

Heo Jae–man was working as a correctional officer...

...at the Northern Detention Center when

he was arrested for murdering Kim Sun–hee.

The case is entering a new phase as Lawyer Choi Do–hyun...

...who received a lot of attention for

the unprecedented double jeopardy ruling...

...was appointed to represent him.

The defense today...

That punk.

It's me.

"As for all his charges...

...I ask you to give him a punishment

that he deserves."

I thought it would be effective...

...if you admitted to the crimes yourself.

What do you mean by "effective"?

It was for Hwang Kyo–sik's subpoena.

I figured that we would need a speedier process...

...in order to bring Hwang Kyo–sik to court

before the trial is over.

I see. Is that so?

But when you make a decision like that going forward...

...please consult me before you do it.

Don't jump to conclusions thinking I'll follow your plan.

Will do.

So...

...what do I need to do now, Mr. Choi?

Even if I bring Hwang Kyo–sik to stand trial...

...I still need evidence to prove that

you were under orders.

Even if I testify myself?

Testimony alone gives room for debate.

Do you have anything...

...that can serve as evidence?

I have the voice recording of him ordering me to do it.

I'm talking about the original file that has the entire conversation.

A recording of the entire conversation

that verifies the date of the conversation.

Do you have it?

No, I don't.

If we don't have such evidence...

...Hwang Kyo–sik might sue you for making a false accusation.

Sue me? For a false accusation?

Hwang Kyo–sik might sue me for making a false accusation.

How ridiculous.

We can't proceed with this...

...by relying on emotions.

I'll think about it...

...to see what can be used as evidence.

Anyway, did you find Hwang Kyo–sik?

I believe we haven't found him yet.

What's your plan?

If you have evidence but can't bring him to court...

...can you still charge him as the instigator?

That would depend on...

...the evidence.

Well, I have a feeling...

...that Hwang Kyo–sik might end up like

Han Jong–gu, unless we find him soon.

Or, it might be you...

...who ends up like him.

I see.

Are you pretending to worry about me?

Mr. Choi.

Why don't you go and find Hwang Kyo–sik...

...before he disappears?

Don't forget.

This is not just my battle...

...but also yours.

The case is entering a new phase as Lawyer Choi Do–hyun...

...who received much attention for

the unprecedented double jeopardy ruling...

...was appointed to represent him.

The defense made an argument in court today...

...that Kim Sun–hee's murder was...

...committed under orders.

It is viewed that the court is supporting the defense by...

...issuing a subpoena requesting

the compulsory attendance of the instigator.

(Chairman Oh Taek–jin)

The person you're trying to reach is unavailable.

Please leave a message.

Then first off...

...we need to find Hwang Kyo–sik no matter what.

I hope he hasn't left the country.

Otherwise, it'll be hard to find him.

I'll meet with Chairman Oh Taek– jin.

What's the point? He's not going to admit that he ordered him to do it.

Isn't it better to meet with him when we have more evidence?

We have to question the suspects directly.

We can't be certain just by reading what's on paper.

I'll call you later, sir.

Okay. Keep up the good work.

(Observational Report on Park Si– kang)

(The Real Power in the Blue House)

Park Si–kang, a nephew of the former president.

Gosh, unbelievable. An assemblyman?

The man next to Park Si–kang.

Who is he?

And I don't recognize her, either.

Chairman Oh.

My name is Choi Do–hyun.

Move aside.

I remember you.

You're Warrant Officer Choi Pil– soo's son.

I haven't seen you in 10 years.

So, what brings you here?

I have a few questions I want to ask you.

By any chance, is this regarding your father?

Why would you think that?

Because I don't think you would have...

...any other reason to come see me unless it concerns your father.

So that's why I asked.

–No, it isn't. –Well, that's a relief.

Why don't we go upstairs to talk?

A defense company and a member of the National Defense Committee.

And someone who's associated with the two.

Maybe a lobbyist?

That's right.

A weapons industry lobbyist.

(Observational Report on Park Si– kang,

Observation on the Real Power in the BH)

(Song Jae–in, who's suspected to be a lobbyist working for Embite...)

Song Jae–in.

Can you look up a female weapons

industry lobbyist named Song Jae– in?

Also pull her entry records into Korea.

–Call the immigration office. –Yes, sir.

Congratulations on being alive.

If we had come just five minutes later...

...you'd no longer be alive.

What happened to me?

They were trying to disguise it as a suicide.

Someone staged it.

Perhaps it was the owner of this place.

A lawyer?

It's a relief to know you turned out well...

...with a successful career.

You told me then.

Don't ruin your life...

...and become a murderer like your father.

Did I say that to you?

Anyway, what did you want to ask me?

Hwang Kyo–sik, your chief secretary...

...is being charged for instigating a crime.

Do you have something to say about that?

Let me just tell you that it has nothing to do with me.

How long do you think he can hide?

Why would you ask me that? He already left the company.

Then let me ask you one more question.

Did you order Heo Jae–man...

...to kill Kim Sun–hee?

I heard that he served in the DSC.

Let me simply say that it was a deviation of...

...a former DSC soldier.

So he deviated on his own.

That's an appropriate expression from a former DSC commander.

But there is a problem.

Heo Jae–man never served in the DSC.

I wasn't talking about Cho Ki–tak.

–What did you say?

–If we were talking about Cho Ki– tak...

...not Heo Jae–man, then what you said

about him would've been true. But...

...Heo Jae–man never served in the DSC.

While you don't know the whereabouts of

someone who assisted you for 20 years...

...you remember Cho Ki–tak so well even though he was...

...a mere soldier from 10 years ago.

On top of that, you even know that...

...he's been using Heo Jae–man's identity.

Is that because you were a former DSC commander?

How dare you.

I only treated you well since you're Warrant Officer Choi's son.

You don't need to treat me nicely.

What I want from you is the truth.

The truth?

How dare you talk to me about what the truth is?

Do you even know who saved your life?

What do you...

–...mean by that? –Get out of my office.

I asked you...

...who saved my life.

How would I know? I said get out!

I have no reason to see you ever again.

(Yukwang Corporation, Korea Defense Industry Company)

(Choi Do–hyun is choosing to stand near the cliff)

(He'll die if he doesn't stop)

Officer. Officer!

The truth? How dare you to talk to me...

...about what the truth is?

Do you even know who saved your life?

Hello, Choi Do–hyun speaking.

Yes.

What?

I'm Choi Do–hyun, a lawyer.

I am requesting a visit.

How is...

...your health?

I never thought you'd ask to see me first.

I was really worried that you might not be well.

Your health is okay, right?

I killed him.

–Dad. –Don't...

...dig into my case anymore.

Dad!

Dad, we didn't see each other for 10 years.

It's been 10 years.

How did you find out?

You're stuck in here.

And yet, you somehow know...

...of my whereabouts.

The detective who worked on my case visited me recently.

Based on that alone...

...I can figure out what you've been doing.

Or someone is watching you.

Did you make a deal with Chairman Oh?

All this time...

...I've been chasing after Lt. Colonel Cha's

case to find the truth about you.

But every time I felt I was getting close,

it became uncertain.

When I would try again, it kept getting further away.

But now, I can finally see the end.

I've finally reached it.

And now you're telling me to stop?

Your new life didn't come easily.

It's time you live your life.

Please.

This is my life, Dad.

No matter what you do, I'm not leaving this place.

So please stop.

No.

I'll see it to its end.

Because I'm confident that at that end...

...I'll find you.

This visit is over.

It's me. The female lobbyist named Song Jae–in...

...who was mentioned in the report...

Are you listening to me?

Sir.

What's the matter?

I went to see my father.

He came out to see you?

He requested to see me first.

So what did he say?

He told me not to dig into his case anymore.

He asked to see you at this point in time...

...after refusing for 10 years.

It's certain we made it uncomfortable

for whoever is behind all this.

And it's also certain...

...that someone is putting pressure on my father.

Now that I think about it...

...I'm sure one of the reasons Cho Ki–tak was placed there...

...was to keep an eye on your father.

Yes, I agree.

Now I'm more certain that...

...whoever Cho Ki–tak is reporting to...

...is connected to my father's case.

Captain.

Here are the entry records for Song Jae–in

that you requested.

Mr. Choi, I'll call you again.

(Entered on April 17, 2019)

Your new life didn't come easily.

It's time you live your life.

Please.

No.

I'll see it to its end.

To its end.

The daughter of Ha Myung–soo.

(Observational Report on Park Si– kang,

Observation on the Real Power in the BH)

(Park Si–kang was...)

(What Park Si–kang was referring to as

catching the entire prosecution...)

(Park Si–kang)

Hello, Ha Yu–ri speaking.

(Let's change Joongang–gu!

Park Si–kang is here for Joongang– gu)

This report was very interesting.

Was it?

I don't know who wrote a novel like this,

but it was a fun read.

If your father were a fiction writer

instead of a reporter...

...he'd have been remembered for generations.

And I heard you were also a reporter.

I see. You thought it was fiction.

You still haven't found...

...Hwang Kyo–sik?

Didn't you promise me?

You promised you'd make them stand trial

for what they've done to my sister and me.

I should've never trusted you.

In the end, after all the talk of revenge...

...all you did was deceive me.

You've got nothing on them.

This is the general synopsis.

A woman who worked at a place called Hwaye 10 years ago...

...somehow got involved in a case.

Perhaps she was the witness.

The woman went abroad after the incident...

...and came home 10 years later.

And coincidently, she saw a man...

...who was involved in that case.

On television.

Because he was very famous.

She just so happened to need money

at the time, so she tried to contact him.

But soon after...

...her dead body was found.

She was murdered by someone.

Well...

...the story is rather boring.

Right? I agree.

But...

...I think the story would become interesting...

...if I were to add this one point.

The murderer was framed.

Then...

...who was it that framed him?

You have to cooperate...

...for me to be able to help you.

At least tell me about Prosecutor No Sun–hoo's case.

The camera was found, and the police

will find other evidence soon.

I already admitted I killed Kim Sun–hee!

I told you about Hwang Kyo–sik as well.

What else do you want me to tell you?

–Mr. Cho. –Oh, right.

You wanted to know the truth.

Now that it's come to this, let me tell you the truth.

The truth you wanted to know.

Your father had a heart condition.

10 years ago.

But it happened to be that...

...Choi Do–hyun, that lawyer,

also had a heart condition at that time.

Let's see.

There is only one heart...

...but there are two people who are in need of that heart.

–What are you getting at? –The fact.

Ms. Ha, you like facts, right?

The one who saved your life was...

...me.

Do you want me to tell you again?

I saved your life.

How would a parent feel?

A parent would want their son to receive that heart.

But unfortunately, someone else has claimed it already.

What thought would've crossed that parent's mind?

What thought crossed that father's mind?

"If it weren't for that person..."

"If it weren't for that person, my son could..."

I'm not finished yet.

Are you leaving already?

I don't think it's worth listening to.

Really?

Well...

...some facts are better left unknown.

Because it's painful.

It hurts too much.

Ha Myung–soo.

Ha Yu–ri's father.

I killed him for you.

That's the truth.

Actually...

...you can't be too surprised yet.

You should also hear who ordered me to do it.

Now that it's come to this.

Who...

...was it?

Who was it?

Choi Pil–soo.

What would you do...

...if it were your father?

(Confession)

All these people are connected...

...and at the center of it all

lies the corruption of the defense industry.

You won't be able to free yourself from that case.

I know it wasn't your fault.

I also know it's been as hard for you

as it has been for me.

Jenny Song met with Choi Do–hyun?

I have something to tell you...

...regarding Warrant Officer Choi Pil–soo.

You're going to treat me like this...

...until the end, Chairman Oh?

What are you saying all of a sudden?

It doesn't mean anything to me unless I do it myself.

Don't you want to hear the rest of the truth...

...regarding the Hwaye incident from 10 years ago?
