Original subtitles

Forgive me.

That time I was 18 years old I just wanted to run away from any problems.

So I cannot forgive myself.

Hyeon Seok no matter what you do

don't be like me thinking that you cannot let go

holding tight.

Where are you going?

Go and do something that I should have done.

Don't worry eonni.

Why have you come?

I came to surrender.

Prosecutor Gong Hyeon Seok

Call me by my name.

Gong Hyeon Seok. Your statement

is proof that you wanted to kill Lee Gyeong Tae.

You got into a fight with him,

fought until Lee Gyeong Tae was exhausted then left.

Later your hyeong on behalf of you took on the murder charge.

It was like this?

Yes

Gong Hyeon Seok

Yes

Do you feel that is really ok with your hyeong?

Back then I also said to Gong Jun Su that we were

suspicious of his statement that he had killed someone. Everything seemed so far-fetched.

But why was Gong Jun Su so determined to say that he was the murderer?

I gradually began to understand.

The person Lee Gyeong Tae's father wanted to catch

was not Gong Jun Su, but you, Gong Hyeon Seok.

If your brother, at that time hadn't admitted that it was he who committed the crime,

there is the possibility that you would not be around anymore.

Yes, that's right.

So, not as a police officer

but as someone who is acquainted with you brothers,

I want to ask you.

Do you really feel that this is what your hyeong would want?

It's not for anyone, I made this choice for myself.

I didn't ever want to see you again.

I am sorry.

I never could understand at the time, why you would never push for reasonable self-defense

or some other lesser charge. You depressed me.

But after just having seen your dongsaeng like that

I can understand why you felt you had to do it.

Your dongsaeng came in to surrender, stating he had killed someone.

Hyeon Seok. Why?

Who did you kill?

This, from the start were the facts.

You have not killed anyone, you and I already know this.

This the prosecutor will decide.

Hyeon Seok just tell the truth, I will also.

Promise me.

Small oppa will he be punished?

Don't know.

That day, why did I have to follow big oppa?

If I had never seen.

It's not anyone's fault. We still do not know

everything that happened. If there was a reason.

They will review the case. I'll call you about what is happening.

You should leave.

Our Hyeon Seok, do you know if he has eaten?

Dinner was served before he came in to surrender.

I asked him if he wanted to eat. He rejected it.

Please could they hear the case as early as possible. I will be here.

So. I don't want to see you.

Your hyeong is still waiting outside. Should I tell him to come in?

Can I make a call on the phone?

You've come.

I'm sorry that I had you come here.

My hyeong said that he will always stay here.

Except for you, I cannot ask other people to help.

The last few days I haven't slept,

if hyeong stays here, I just won't be able to sleep.

Can you take him away?

Do you need anything else?

No I don't have. Thank you for worrying about me.

Let's talk outside.

Hyeon Seok said that today he wants to sleep well,

so he asked me to take you away.

I have not come here as your lover,

but as Gong Jun Su's best friend.

Under this kind of situation you probably need to cry,

I'll lend you my shoulder for that.

Why did it need to be like this?

I didn't know.

Why at that time was I only able to make this decision.

Your decision might possibly have been correct.

About the choice you made

nobody would criticize.

Just like no one can criticize Hyeon Seok for now making this choice.

You cannot criticize the choices other people make.

Go in.

I hesitated, there were a lot of times

I wanted to tell you everything, many moments.

But you didn't do that. Jun Su.

I know that by simply saying I'm sorry, that will not be enough for you to forgive me.

The bracelet, I've taken it off.

I know this may seem very cruel considering Hyeon Seok's situation.

But I've always told you everything.

I will beg for your forgiveness.

You always told me everything

and you always believed what I said.

But I couldn't. I will spend my lifetime begging you to forgive me.

If the truth had not been uncovered,

when would you have told me the truth?

Hyeon Seok is at the police station.

He has surrendered and is under investigation.

I'm not going to let you run over there.

The charges against Hyeon Seok may possibly be that he was an accomplice to murder.

This is a totally other type of problem than your marriage to Lee Han Seo.

Do you understand it clearly?

This is why you shouldn't run over before resolving the problems in your mind.

The road that Jun Su and I have been living,

could also be the one you and Hyeon Seok may have to follow.

First ask yourself, do you have the confidence?

Which police station?

I see.

That day I took the public bus to the terminus

and said I didn't know where I was.

I wanted to tell.

But I didn't know if once I saw you whether I could say it?

That day, I'm not sure if I would have hesitated.

Just now you asked me when I would have told you the truth.

I detested myself for not answering you.

But Do Hui the past cannot be retrieved,

in the years to come can you not believe in me?

The person that I love was you in the past,

if I hadn't accepted the past you,

there would not be a future.

This is why you shouldn't run over before resolving the problems in your mind.

The road that Jun Su and I have been living,

could also be the one you and Hyeon Seok may have to follow.

First ask yourself, do you have the confidence?

But I thought you were a very level headed type of person.

What is all this about? Even if you wanted the case heard again

I don't know what judgment might happen under the circumstances?

Why did you just hand in your resignation?

You being in charge of this case

really makes me feel dumbstruck.

The department head has already said that your hyeong's case

will need to be re-investigated. Permission has been received

to have the original and new charges reviewed.

Gong Hyeon Seok

I don't remember that split second

when I fought with Lee Gyeong Tae and

what I had done? No matter how much I try, I cannot recall.

I really cannot remember.

Isn't it possible that I used a plank to hit him?

I can't remember.

No, it's not. Hyeon Seok and Gyeong Tae were fighting.

As for him, he was just standing there.

If he had known that the boy was already dead.

That's when I ran over.

He would not have left like that.

We questioned your dongsaeng

at the time he surrendered. He made the assertion

that during the fight he had wanted the boy to die.

That's the core of this case,

did Gong Hyeon Seok deliberately kill a person?

It was only because he had gotten angry and fought.

Hyeon Seok, never wanted to kill him.

I clearly remember when he first got the case file to review.

He had not thought about how it was related to himself.

Only suspected that his hyeong's punishment was excessive.

Later after he started to investigate we spoke.

He would never neglect his public responsibilities during that time.

He and I argued over his request to see the case file.

Prosecutor.

Just for his future life. This case

will be reheard again to get the correct answer.

Understood. Even if I'm late.

I will also wait and see if I can bring him back.

You've come to find Prosecutor Gong Hyeon Seok?

Yes. Prosecutor Gong. Have his meetings finished up?

How do you know each other?

Hyeon Seok. You cannot be like this.

What are you doing? Are you sacrificing yourself for your hyeong?

What would become of eonni and dongsaeng?

You would not deliberately injure anyone or use deadly force.

You never exceeded your duties for this case.

I. Still must continue to survive.

So if I don't know, I just say I don't know.

If I know, then I just say I know.

Even so I want to forever bear in my heart this heavy load.

But I want to be open and upright.

Jin Ju is starting to think that Hyeon Seok is not always at work.

Then also, she is pregnant.

We can't have her going in and out of the police station.

First take a look, see what you can find out about the investigation.

Yes. How much can be concealed, how much is too much?

Is Hyeon Seok really at work?

Yes, right.

I feel that is strange.

When I saw him it seems like he had decided what to do.

He wants to apply for a rehearing of big oppa's case.

If oppa's case is heard again. Then this will expose the truth.

Hearing a case again isn't just to expose the truth.

So Hyeon Seok can he not be punished?

If the charge is manslaughter, then the statute of limitations has expired for this crime.

So that bringing this into the open will only display the truth.

As brother-in-law has said, manslaughter

is a crime where the statute of limitations has expired.

So they will not punish our two oppas.

Really. Really.

Small oppa will apply for a rehearing, then big oppa will no longer be a murderer.

Truly?

Yes, that's right. So you don't need to worry.

Although this is violating the rules,

but I will give just this one opportunity.

He wanted to watch his dongsaeng eat rice before he left. What can you do?

My hyeong is really great, he even gets the police officer to make an exception for you.

Still taking special care of me.

Sit down.

Why haven't you been eating?

Have to eat rice. Stay strong.

Don't talk nonsense. Don't say that you wanted him to die, or some other similar nonsense.

You and Gyeong Tae were friendly rivals comparing strengths.

How my heart feels? You don't know.

No. I do know.

I saw you together with Gyeong Tae,

I remembered your face.

Let's eat.

You will have to work very hard.

Nothing is wrong.

Before you leave you must endure.

You're really good.

Too much wine. Go back and sleep.

Wait and see. Our Ju Yeong.

will find a person 100 times stronger compared to Lawyer Lee to get married to.

Go on in.

Jun Su has not been going to the studio,

I'll just wait for him.

Do you have something to say?

I already know about Jun Su's dongsaeng.

What should we consider?

Do you want it to destroyed your life?

You must have felt a strong sense of betrayal.

Compared to feeling betrayed I wonder what I mean to him.

What does it count for exactly?

So. If you want to get angry then get angry.

But. Hyeon Seok has surrendered.

Confession...

Yes. He's now in jail and under investigation.

So you also feel that Jun Su is pitiful.

Pitying him and being angry at him are two different things.

Gong Hyeon Seok atoning for his own crime,

is another thing.

So you just do what you believe should be done.

Do Hui. You must let her know that you will not give up on her.

Sooner or later she will come back. But it will take a very long period of time.

But. Do you know?

To Man Do. As with Do Hui, you have committed the same error.

You this foolish kid.

Sorry. Ajussi. I was unable to say it out loud.

I once thought, when I die and I see your father.

He will ask me, how did my son become a murderer?

He would want to know what I had done for you.

My life has not been that easy,

I couldn't take care of Jun Su.

What else could I say?

Bestow ten thousand blessings. Bestow ten thousand blessings.

Your son is not a murderer.

You have heard it. Bestow ten thousand blessings.

Why haven't you spoken with grandpa?

How am I supposed to tell him that?

Jun Su says he is not. Hyeon Seok said he is.

I have thought about it the entire day.

What is it that I have always held the dearest?

Branded handbags, expensive clothing and precious stones?

How much is the value of those?

And. What is it that I want to fight for?

Is it for a comparatively normal and restrained mother?

Or for a father who once was so optimistic about Hyeon Seok.

If Hyeon Seok was punished as his hyeong was,

could I wait for him?

But. No matter how I thought of it

there was only one answer.

To be married to Lee Han Seo

I would think of suicide.

So what could there be to make me frightened?

Comparing that with losing Hyeon Seok, nothing could be as frightening as that.

Thinking like this I cried a lot.

Today I couldn't go to see Hyeon Seok.

My eyes were too swollen to go there.

You seem to be unhappy.

Recently, do you know why I made you sad?

You understand, don't you?

So. You can now relax your expression.

I don't know what your future holds for you,

but I will always be at your side.

I don't want you to.

Even if you're not willing...

Now, in my heart I don't have an empty place.

In the future I won't be able to love anyone.

So you also will not have a place.

This face-to-face meeting has ended.

Hyeon Seok

Your father will be leaving immediately to go to the United States to study.

Your paternal uncle will take over as president.

But later there will be lots of things for you to do.

I have something to say.

Sorry Do Hui. I will tell it first.

Grandfather

What is it?

That murder case, Gong Jun Su was not a murderer.

Ju Yeong

Prosecutor Gong Hyeon Seok has surrendered. It is now under investigation.

What would we do if small oppa takes things too hard?

Na Ri

Gong Na Ri says that she recalls the situation at the time of the incident.

Na Ri is suffering now.

The authenticity of the assertion is suspect.

Then she also could not have made up the crime details.

Prosecutor. What is wrong with you?

I will give you one final chance.

Sorry, Father.

Until now, what have you done?

You have the opportunity to leave as a human.

Prove to me that you are my son.
