(Episode 65)

I searched the entire house,
but it's not here.

Then Seo Jung Min probably has it.

They say, "You can't see
right under your nose."

So I searched his father's study...

thinking he might've hidden it here.

But it's not here either.

At this rate,
I might end up getting buried...

right next to the late chairman.

You promised to give me
the ledger...

where he kept a record of
all the dirty money he gave me.

That's why I agreed
to hold hands with you.

If you can't give me that,
there's no reason for me to do so.

Why do you think Seo Jung Min
chose to come here...

of all the other
prosecutors' offices in the city?

It means he has his father's ledger.

And it's his way of threatening me
to do a proper job...

of investigating
the illegal succession.

Do you get that?

If you don't find the ledger,

our deal will no longer be valid,
so don't expect anything from me.

Things are getting out of hand
because of Jung Min, that lunatic.

Why can't he just live a quiet life?

Why does he have to be
all just and conscientious?

(Chief Prosecutor Kim Jong Hyuk)

(Confidential Record...)

(of Succession of Management Rights
for Seorin Group)

(This agenda will be kept a secret
from Director Seo Jung Min...)

(until the transfer of
management rights is complete.)

"This agenda will be kept a secret
from Director Seo Jung Min..."

"until the transfer of
management rights is complete."

Chairman Seo sure is clever.

I need to learn this kind of stuff.

He made sure his son
won't have to get his hands dirty.

If I want the chief prosecutor
to edit the confidential record,

I need to find the ledger.

That's how I can get Jung Min
locked up in jail.

Will I have to go with Plan B?

Your aunt came to my office
earlier this afternoon.

She accidentally left
her cell phone behind,

and I happened to see
the text she got.

It was a text from
Chief Prosecutor Kim Jong Hyuk...

saying he'll get you locked up.

I can't believe she already
reached out to him.

What's on your mind?

I was thinking about your father.

My goodness.

We used to fight all the time.

But he's still my brother.

Were you looking for something?

Yes. It's not good to keep
the belongings of the dead.

So I figured we should
remodel the room...

and get rid of his stuff.

I'm going to use his study.

I'm going to keep
everything he used to own.

I'll have to ask someone
to put things back to place.

I guess I was too thoughtless.

You care for your father a lot
now that he's dead.

You should've been a better son
while he was still alive.

Where are your father's laptop,
cell phone, wallet,

and ledgers?

I have them all.

Oh, you do?

They used to belong to my dad,
so it's right that I keep them.

Of course. Good.

You're the rightful owner
since they used to be your father's.

Aunt, I'm a little hungry.

Why don't we have some udon?

Sure. Let's go and make some.

Jung Min.

I heard your father died here.

Mr. Son found him dead.

He fell from the second floor.

Do you think you can keep
living here?

It's a bit creepy.

I have a lot of memories here,

so I don't intend on moving.

I wasn't here when he died,

so I feel more heartbroken
than horrified.

So I poured alcohol
on this very spot where he died...

and promised him
that I'll become a bold son.

Should we start cooking udon?

I just lost my appetite.

I guess I should go ahead
with Plan B.

I don't want to meet you, Mi Ran.

I don't want to talk about
anything with you.

So let's just hang up.

And just for your information,
I don't like you.

Se Hoon is sick. It's bad.

What are you talking about?

I need your help.

Let's meet up and talk.

I'll go to where you are.

Send me an address via text.

Shouldn't we go now?

Yes, we should, but I can't.

I need to meet someone.

You just talked to a woman,
didn't you?

She is a woman,
but she's not that kind of woman.

"That kind of woman"?

Then are you saying
I'm that kind of woman?

You totally took it the wrong way.
That's not what I meant.

I'm saying there's nothing
going on between me and her.

Then why are you meeting her
at this hour?

I see you're the type
who likes to argue.

And I see you're the type
who knows how to get on my nerves.

Why am I getting
a bad feeling about this?

How is that possible?

I can't believe Se Hoon is
suffering from a heart disease.

Plus, it's a relapse
and in a terminal stage?

He told me not to tell anyone.

But I thought you of all people
should know.

Let's go see him right now.

Don't get worked up and sit down.

Se Hoon isn't doing very well.

He took painkillers and went to bed.

I can't believe that punk.

That poor guy. That fool.

How could he not tell me about
his heart surgery five years ago?

I'm his best friend
for goodness' sake.

He's a cold-hearted punk.

So what did the doctor say?

The only way for him to live
is to get a heart transplant.

His condition isn't good enough
for him to get an artificial heart.

So he needs to wait
until they find a donor.

But the biggest problem is that
he shows symptoms of delirium.

He has delirium?

The symptoms started to show today.

He was suffering from it...

in front of Myunghwa Gallery,
and that's where I found him.

And in the end,
Se Hoon told me everything.

I guess he didn't think
he could hide it anymore.

I can take care of him at his house
until he gets surgery.

But if that happens again at work,

things could get out of control.

He's going to continue working?

He's not the type
to get hospitalized.

You know how stubborn he is.

Because of his stubbornness,

he thinks he can keep it
under control.

But the doctor told me
it's not something he can control.

Then of course,
he should never be alone.

That's why I need you to always
stay by his side at work.

Yes, of course.

But first, I need to talk about this
with Se Hoon tomorrow morning.

Mi Ran.

You seem like a different person.

From now on, I'm going to
live for him instead of myself.

When I realized that he could die,

I couldn't stop thinking about
all the bad things I had done.

What are you doing here?

I'm no longer interested in you,
Ji Eun.

Ji Eun, she came here to meet me.

Let's go.

Ji Eun, can we talk for a moment?

What are you trying to do
to my daughter this time?

Are you helping her harass Ji Eun?

Mom, wait inside.

Let's go inside and let them
handle it on their own.

She's not someone
who can handle it on her own.

I'm not stupid, okay?

Just stay out of it.

Will you wait outside?

I'll be right there.

I won't cause any trouble.

I just have a favor to ask Ji Eun.

Okay.

I know you hate me...

because I put you through a lot.

But I also hate you
as much as you hate me.

I'm not trying to start a fight.

Apparently, holding onto the memory
of someone you once loved...

can soothe your heart.

So please do me a favor.

Please don't be so cold to Will...

whenever you run into him at work.

I'm asking you
from the bottom of my heart.

My gosh, come here.

Follow me.

"Stay out of it"?

How could you say that
to your own mother?

I was worried that crazy brat
might do something to you again,

so I was just trying to help.

How could you embarrass me
like that in front of them?

I'm sorry.

You may be my daughter,
but you can be very mean sometimes.

You're cold, ruthless,

and you make people feel exhausted.

You're just like your selfish dad.

I'm going to go to my room.

Where do you think you're going?

I'm not done. Sit down.

Mom, I'm already
going through enough.

Must you make things worse?

What's the matter with you?

Don't blame me for the choice
you made for yourself.

I never told you to break up
with Jung Min and start a company.

I know I'm a horrible woman.

But I'm already having a hard time.

Do you really have to hurt me
even more?

You should be used to it by now.

You know how straightforward
Mom can be.

I personally think
you did the right thing.

It's not like his family was
going to approve of you anyway.

So it's right that you chose
to be practical.

Yes, you're right.
I chose to be practical.

I'm a horrible woman who
gave up on him to settle a deal.

That's not what I meant.

I don't care if other people
condemn me for what I did.

But shouldn't you guys at least
take my side since you're my family?

Do you know how hard I'm trying
not to regret what I did?

Every time I run into Jung Min,
I feel so guilty...

that it drives me crazy.

Why did you make
that kind of choice?

It only ended up
hurting both you and Jung Min.

I didn't know it'd be so hard.

I thought I'd be okay...

once I got everything I wanted.

I thought I'd quickly get over him.

You should apologize to Jung Min.

Tell him you were out of your mind
and made the wrong choice...

because you were
going through too much.

It's too late for that. I can't.

It's over now.

Here.

If that's the case,
don't be so weak.

You chose this path
over the man you loved.

So you should succeed.

I get how you feel.

But it's time you stop...

blaming yourself for Dad's death.

I must've been out of my mind.

She's barely getting by,
but I totally broke her.

I should've held it in.

You're not the type
who can hold it in.

And you're not the type
who knows how to stay quiet.

This is crazy.

Mom.

Jung Min's dad apparently died
because he slipped on honey.

What is this?

Put it away.

They're just trying to slander
Seorin Group.

You should know that this stuff
is based on facts.

I'm just worried.

I read your father's will,

and I know
you're his only successor.

But when the board opens a meeting,

it'll be hard to avoid
getting disciplined.

Because you turned yourself in,

many of our supporters will
turn their backs on us.

But thankfully,

the prosecution won't indict you
due to your father's death.

And that means you won't have
to pay a forfeit.

But I'm not quite sure
if the prosecution will believe...

that your father proceeded with...

the illegal succession
without your permission.

I'll prove to them
that I didn't take part...

in the illegal succession.

But I should still pay a forfeit.

In order to do that,
you'll have to sell your stocks.

Should I buy them from you?

Where are your father's laptop,
cell phone, wallet,

and ledgers?

I will quickly help you
get rid of your ambition...

to take over Seorin.

All the executives and board members
who took part...

in the illegal transfer
of management rights...

got summoned by the prosecution.

I'll also get investigated...

and sentenced to prison.

I know it wasn't an easy choice.

I really appreciate
the choice you made.

You once told me...

that we need to lead change,
not chase after it.

Everyone knows that,

but not many people
put it to action.

That's what made me support you.

Chief Prosecutor Kim Jong Hyuk
won't let go of my hand...

as long as I have the hidden card
up my sleeve.

Once you get out of prison,

I'll appoint you as
my right-hand man like I promised.

And until then, I'll turn Seorin
into a transparent company.

I did something
you might not be so happy with.

I told Ho Jin that you're sick.

I do need his help.

I was going to tell him anyway.

Didn't you run over here
because you had something to say?

What is wrong with you?

How could you not tell me when
we've been friends for 30 years?

I stayed up all night
thinking about all the things...

you said to me until now.

I'm sorry.

Who asked for an apology?

I'm the one who should be sorry.

You're suffering
both physically and mentally.

But I wasn't able
to do anything for you.

I'm hanging in there.
I also came up with a plan.

Now I just need to carry it out.

But I'm worried my delirium
might get in the way.

Mi Ran told me.

Why are you so obsessed
with work?

Can't you just take it easy
and get some rest?

I can do that once I die.
I don't need to rest already.

Are you kidding me?

I can't believe
you're joking around.

Then do you want me to cry?

My heart fluttered
when Jung Min told me...

that he wishes to reform Seorin.

He even went to the prosecution
to get investigated,

so I decided to trust him.

Good.

Good choice.

I always knew
you weren't the type...

to hold hands with
Choi Myung Hwa.

But of course, it's natural
to get swayed since you're human.

I'm happy that I don't need
to spend my last days...

feeling lethargic.

They say you're unyielding
when you have conviction...

and hope to persevere.

And I trust that you're
an unyielding man.

Right.

By the way, Seo Jung Min
shouldn't know about this.

I promised to help.

But he'll feel frustrated
if he finds out I'm sick.

I guess it's best
to keep it a secret.

(Seorin)

I met her at the chairman's funeral.

That day, she asked me...

what I thought about you
for willingly...

asking the prosecution
to carry out an investigation...

hoping to reform Seorin.

So what did you tell her?

I told her you might not
think of it as a burden...

since you chose that path yourself.

My gosh.

My aunt must be struggling
to figure out...

what it is that you want.

But I have to say,
she really is extraordinary.

My conservative grandfather...

didn't even consider her to be
his successor for being a woman.

And when that happened,
she decided to move out,

refused to receive
financial support from her family,

and went straight to the States.

She started out
as a cosmetics saleswoman...

and eventually started
a brand of her own.

She bought a lot of Seorin's shares
with the money she made.

She must've bought our stocks
every time she had the chance...

seeing that she became the second
largest shareholder...

without even receiving any
from her father.

I don't think Seorin has to be
run by someone...

from our family.

Reforming Seorin
is my utmost priority.

But I also don't think separating
ownership and management rights...

is always the right answer.

There are also upsides to having
the owner run the company.

It's all about the person.

It's about who runs the company.

How much do you trust me?

What about you?
How much have you come to trust me?

Some say...

you need to trust people
to see their true intentions.

If you chose to trust me,

then trust me.

Put them up for auction
and blind auction.

I need to sell all the paintings
so I can have cash.

Call the VIPs...

and set up a meeting.

And call Mr. Park and talk to him
about his exhibition...

Will you excuse us?

Do you want to get humiliated
in front of your employees?

Wait outside. We'll carry on
with the meeting a little later.

This is your place. Right here.

Give me the company shares...

and continue to live your life
selling paintings.

Just go back to the States
and sell cosmetics.

Don't you think you should be
more careful?

You forged my brother's will,

you created illegal
borrowed-name accounts...

and made transactions with them,

and you also made a slush fund
using your gallery.

I have evidence for all that.

Chairman Seo had gathered
a lot of evidence...

to get you locked up in jail.

You're so lame for trying
to blackmail me with that.

I know you don't have anything.

I know Jung Min better than you do.

I was his stepmother for 10 years.

He's a very meticulous guy.

He probably secured my weakness
the moment his father died.

He would've made sure
he had that first...

before he took care
of his father's dead body.

You really are a fool.

You're a fool who thinks you can
always get things your way.

You held a grudge
against my brother for 10 years...

and got ready to take revenge.

But you didn't
get to do anything to him.

When I decided to come back
from the States,

I made sure I was armed
and prepared.

Do you think I won't be able
to take down Jung Min?

You won't be able to see him
for a while.

That's for the better.

I'd prefer to fight with you
without him.

(Seorin Group future strategy
project investment proposal)

Chairman Chung promised
to look over it,

but we need an alternative ready.

I'll reach out to the hedge funds
and investors in the States.

Okay.

Sir.

The prosecutors
suddenly barged into the office.

Mr. Yoon, please wait outside.

The late chairman
kept a detailed record...

of all the money he paid
to lobby people in this ledger.

You told me to trust you.

That ledger...

is my lifeline.

And it's the only way
I can put pressure...

on the chief prosecutor.

You'll get released in 48 hours...

since you're getting arrested
without a warrant.

I'll keep it safe
until you come back.

Mr. Seo Jung Min.

You’re under arrest without
a warrant for violating the act...

on the aggravated punishment of
specific economic crimes...

and the possibility of evidence
destruction and fleeing overseas.

I'll call Lawyer Kim Ho Jin
from the legal team.

(Seo Mun Su)

Don't worry. I'll get you out.

Jang Se Hoon!

Just a second.

I need you to take the black ledger
from Jang Se Hoon.

(Phoenix 2020)

The fact that you're here...

proves that you took the ledger.

Something happened.

Did you decided to hold hands
with Seo Hui Su?

Calm down.

If you get involved,
you could get in trouble.

I need to do something.

Don't you have something to tell me?

We're on the same boat.

It's too late to try
and come up with a plan...

when you need one right now.
I'll see you later.
