Tower of Babel

Are you pregnant?

It has nothing to do with Geosan and you.

This baby is mine.

If it's Min Woo's, you're the murderer of the baby's father.

If not, you're a vulgar and dirty whore.

I will make you feel the same pain.

Proseutor Cha. Do you think Jeong Won has nothing to do with Min Ho's death?

It doesn't matter. Even she used me, or she conceived someone else's baby,

because I love her.

If by being a family member of the owner and

try to shake Geosan above the rights obtained

I will not sit and watch it.

you must not let the Madam attend the meeting.

Using the mole, we will leak the information to our enemy.

Last night we arrested Jo Seong Hui, the suspect for

the helicopter accident, and transferred her to Seoul.

It's Jae Il Hospital. I'm asking you to do it by tonight.

Prosecutor. I just did what I was told.

I only did what Director Sin Hyeon Cheol asked me to do.

It was not Jo Seong Hui.

If she wanted to cut the tail neatly, it would

be Director Sin, rather than Jo Seong Hui.

Hyeon Cheol, this is because you were not careful.

Why did you bring your death upon yourself?

Take your hands off from the helicopter accident case. Chief Prosecutor.

This is external interference!

- This case is over. - Chief Prosecutor, Chief Prosecutor!

What is this?

Prosecutor, you should see this.

Let's get moving.

Yeong Eun, you order her overseas travel ban first.

Hapjeong dong?

- Then— - Everybody, let's move! Move

Tell them to keep checking her whereabouts!

Yes!

Prosecutor.

Prosecutor!

Woo Hyeok.

How are you here?

Where are you going?

Han Jeong Wan,

you are under arrest for the murder of Tae Min Ho.

From now on, you have the right to remain silent.

You have the right to an attorney.

Starting now, everything you say,

may be used against you in court.

If you desire an attorney but cannot afford an attorney,...

Ramifications.

Tower of Babel

Episode 11

Yes, it's me. It's fine. Talk.

What? Jeong Won?

Really?

Ah, I see.

All right. Good job.

Events have taken a funny turn.

We've caught her but, are we sure?

Looking at her face gave me the willies.

She doesn't fit the profile.

Dude, we have the evidence! It's proof!

- Damn. - What are you looking for?

The suspect's phone records.

You know I pulled them out and gave them to you.

Exactly.

As to that document, the prosecutor....

why don't I see the prosecutor?

He's in the interrogation room.

He's interviewing the suspect by himself?

No, he said he wanted to look at her for a minute.

That was a short time ago.

Interrogation Room

Are you all right, Jeong Won?

Prosecutor...

You were shocked, weren't you?

It's just the two of us.

I am fine.

I'm sure it will turn out to be nothing.

I

Failed as a reporter, but I've done all right as a prosecutor.

Is there anything you want to tell me?

Anything you didn't have a chance to tell me before?

Where were you going by yourself?

On the day of the incident...

we have a video of you holding a knife.

You can't hide it anymore.

Tell me what happened that night.

Jeong Won

I'm sorry.

I have nothing to say.

I don't care if you have used me during the Tae Min Ho case.

Even if you killed Tae Min Ho, nothing will change.

Because no matter what happens,...

I will protect you.

Because you are the person I love.

But for me to do that, I need to know the truth of what happened that night.

Please tell me...

so that I can protect you.

Thank you.

Please don't put yourself out for me.

You are a prosecutor.

If a prosecutor shields the suspect, people will criticize him.

Is that the reason you were leaving? Just that?

Is that why you are silent?

Is that why you were running away?

I'm sorry, you...

I never loved you.

Because I was struggling so much,

I just needed someone to help me for a while.

Watching you risking your life for me,

I'm sorry but it was just too hard.

If you spoke so cruelly to me like that, would it make you feel easy?

There must be a reason you can't tell me.

It doesn't matter

because I'll figure it out.

This case will be completed sometime.

At that time...

let's leave together.

I don't care if we don't have a destination.

Anywhere is fine so long as we are together.

Wandering here and there,

when we find a place you like,

there

the three of us together

will live for a long time.

Phone call record

Good job.

- Did Han Jeong Wan say anything? - Nothing significant.

Our detective team hit a home run today.

We persistently dug and found evidence we never imagined.

What? It's Team Leader Jang who found it.

Are you trying to ignore and bury that?

What did I say?

Didn't I say our Team Leader Jang found it?

You worked hard.

Well... thank you.

Once again, we have to build the case within

the 48 hour time limit after the arrest.

Gather all the material on the Tae Min Ho case without any omissions.

Pull up all the past records of entries to his home

and please organize all the material in the helicopter case.

And, please control the media and keep it confidential as long as possible.

Yes.

Don't drink without food.

Eat it. You'll ruin your stomach.

Are you kids, Yi Soo and Won Yeong, doing okay?

Yeah.

And your wife?

She's fine.

Why am I suddenly being subjected to a real interrogation?

Do you want me to find you a very rich widow?

It's weird.

We've caught the culprit and found crucial evidence.

The only thing left is for the merit ratings to come out.

Why are you scowling?

What am I doing?

Is that your loosened-up face?

You have ten snakes in your stomach, huh?

How about you? What are you hiding?

You don't have to know.

If you think about it, you'll get confused.

Aren't you afraid that what you're thinking of might me true?

Are you saying because you know something?

Or you're guessing?

Never mind.

I'm not falling for that today.

Whatever.

But...

Is Han Jeong Won really the culprit?

Is that your idea or someone else's idea?

It's not mine. But I think someone else

wishes the murderer is not Han Jeong Won.

Why?

Because of his personal attachment.

Hey. You stop it. I'll pretend I didn't hear that.

What's going to happen if he tries to cover it up?

Your talking is getting tiresome. You, quit flapping your lips.

If you keep opening it, useless nonsense is going to spout and spread.

You were the one asking all the questions of me.

Seriously...

Prosecutor

Hey, Cha Woo Hyeok.

Department Chief.

You slept here?

When did you arrive?

You punk, I knew you would do it.

You're just like me in your persistence.

- I'm still investigating.

- Take your time on that. Let's go. It's time to start with the pictures.

- Pictures? - I've been calling all the reporters.

What?

Department Chief! How come you already called the press?

Did you wake up?

Why are you being an amateur?

You need to get your bowl of rice before others stick their spoons in it.

According to a reliable prosecution official,

they have secured evidence that Han Jeong Won killed her husband Tae Min Ho.

They have still not revealed the nature of the evidence

but an official announcement is expected soon.

- Yes, it's me. - Where are you now?

Where? At the Western District Prosecutor's Office.

It isn't that you drank and fell asleep? Why

aren't you sending a Han Jeong Won article?

But it's not just once or twice those prosecutors have called us in vain

It's not even an official briefing.

Should we make a fuss if they are deciding

whether to apply for an arrest warrant or not?

What are you talking about? Who are you to judge? Scrape something together now.

Hyung, has sitting at a desk dulled your senses?

What are you saying, brat? The competition

is already deciding on their second release.

Have they all lost their senses?

Whatever. Wait a little while.

Hey, Reporter Go!

- You came? - What about breakfast?

You heard, right? What are you going to do now?

Ah, our position... no, Geosan's position should be this.

We are taken aback that Jeong Won killed Min

Ho, but from the prosecutor's investigation...

Call the planning office and issue a counter-statement.

Tell the press their coverage must mirror out position.

If they are lukewarm about it, they won't get

any advertising business starting tomorrow.

Shouldn't we wait?

Don't talk nonsense and just form the defense lawyers team.

Are you sure that Jeong Won isn't the culprit?

What?

No matter how we think, this is the official

Geosan perspective to look at it from.

Han Jeong Won did not kill Tae Min Ho.

There's no way the Prosecutor arrested her without a reason.

It's not too late to figure out the reason.

Are you saying you won't do as I say?

Why are you looking at it from one side?

Shouldn't we be catching the true culprit?

Why are you like this?

Do as your brother says. He is now Geosan.

Is that so?

Okay. Do as you want.

I'm staying out of this.

The great Geosan's people will take care of it among themselves.

Yes. I am in front of the Western District Prosecution Office now.

As I said earlier, the prosecution office at 9 pm last night

arrested the prime suspect of Tae Min Ho's murder

case Han Jeong Won.

A top actress Han Jeong Won who was an issue for

getting married to Tae Min Ho of Geosan Group, but

she is a suspect of her husband's murder now

which is the talk of the town.

This can't be.

Jeong Won...

Jeong Won...

Gosh.

What is this?

Mi Seon. Mi Seon!

Open the windows!

Is it okay to call right now?

I'm sorry. You must be busy.

Yes.

Yes, thank you.

I am able to bear it because of the comfort I receive

from kindhearted people like you, Attorney General.

Yes.

I didn't call to ask you of that.

If there a sin was committed, someone should receive punishment.

If chaebols could evade the rule of law, would social justice be served?

Attorney General.

Right now, I

am calling with a mother's heart.

For having killed my Min Ho,

As the law allows

please let her receive the most severe punishment.

Yes.

Yes, thank you.

Butler Yang. Butler Yang.

- Yes, Madam. - The tea is cold. Get me another one.

Okay.

There is a bird called the love bird. In Korean, it's the Ingko. (Parakeet)

As the name implies, they promote eternal love.

Even in the west, they are known as "love birds."

We have shocking news today.

We are talking about the tragic incident to the couple

previously known as the nations's Lovebird couple,

in which movie actress Han Jeong Won murdered her husband President Tae Min Ho.

Can I have one glass of water?

Tae Min Ho's Phone Record

- Hello?

- Yes. It's the Trustworthy, Credible, Confidential Pro Detective Agency.

Where did you say?

010-678-8590

010-678-8590 Cha Woo Hyeok

You were at the place where the crime took place, right?

- Investigator. - Yes.

This. You know what it is, right?

This is the paper knife that was used as a murder weapon.

Did you kill Tae Min Ho with this?

Please answer.

If you exercise the right to remain silent, do you

know it can be used against you at the trial?

(T.N. I believe this is a misstatement of the law)

Prosecutor? The Department Chief is looking for you.

Lets take a break.

Sunbae.

What is this?

Stop working on that case.

Before Min Ho died, he had asked a private detective agency to take these pictures.

Min Ho knew the relationship between you two.

What do you think will happen if this gets out?

Cha Woo Hyeok!

Do you not see anything because of personal feelings?.

How can you be a prosecutor like this?

You don't have any right to take on this case.

What right do you have to act like this?

- Are you doing it for justice? - What?

You are the one who is mired in personal emotions.

I've lived forgetting what kind of person I am.

Thank you for reminding me.

If you try to meddle in Han Jeong Won's case

once more, I'll show you how low I can go.

You two... what?

Lawyer Tae.

Lawyer Tae.

From the beginning, I thought this person is something else.

Pardon?

I mean Prosecutor Cha.

Because he has a fair complexion like white flour.

I wanted to ask, "Can you do the job properly?"

But then, I found out I was worried for nothing.

Within a few hours, ordering me what to do and

not do in a mixture of casual and formal speech,

even though I wanted to tell him he was a rude bastard,

he handled the work so effectively.

In this world there are a lot of people with

empty heads who will fly the way the wind blows,

and it's the same way here.

Not all people titled prosecutors are prosecutors.

There are very few like Prosecutor Cha.

But recently, he's changed a lot.

As he says it, perhaps it's a delayed adolescence.

Why are you speaking to me like this?

I am worried.

The Prosecutor Cha Woo Hyeok whom I have

observed finds a solution in any kind of case.

I'm sure he will again in this case.

Because he is naturally gifted.

But then that's when the prosecutor does his work as a prosecutor.

If he uses his ability to defend the suspect,

I'm sure it's going to be his downfall.

If love is the reason,

it's going to be even more lethal.

That's not going to happen.

I won't allow that to happen.

It's a mess with articles full of speculation.

Even though the press is a problem the public has made up it's mind.

It looks like Han Jeong won is going to sit on

a shit that someone else took at this rate.

What kind of relationship do you have with Jeong Won?

What?

Sunbae, relationship?

On what basis do you says she's not liable?

There's a lot of evidence supporting her culpability.

Why are others defending her?

Chairman, I am Geosan Group Executive Director Go. Do you recognize me?

Do you know I have been serving you close at your side for twenty years?

I can tell what you are thinking just by looking into your eyes.

Who did this? Who made you like this?

I know you're acting because of them.

Don't trust anyone in this world but me, Executive Director Go.

I am your hands and feet forever.

You can tell me who did it.

And after I catch them...

What?

Yes.

Please tell me. Yes.

Yes, yes.

Oh my ear.

Blood!

Director Park? Soo Ho did?

Yes, he ordered his background check.

Really?

Director Park acts critically somehow.

What shall I do?

Let him do it, whatever he wants.

Humor him so he will be steady until he officially inherits.

Don't even imply or give him a hint that you are serving me.

- Yes, Ma'am. - Leave.

How admirable.

It's me, Madam.

Are you ready?

Ready? For what?

You still have that habit of answering a question by asking a question.

I mean the money.

It's not a small sum to have in cash.

Driver Kim, have you forgotten to whom you are speaking?

As I expected, you're cool.

Cut the crap. Just tell me the place and time.

Yes, I'll contact you again.

Petition for Approval of Divorce Settlement Agreement

What you did to Min Ho...

was it because of me?

At the rate things are going, am I going to be implicated too?

I don't get a day's rest.

Right?

Well, if things proceed and you assume the burden of Geosan in the future,

It's like an unavoidable destiny, isn't it?

What do you want to say?

I'm just curious.

Why are you defending Jeong Won?

Are you worried?

Am I not a part of Geosan? It's family matter.

Isn't it that you are afraid your relationship with Min Ho will be exposed?

That noise again. It's all past.

You're going to inherit and I'm afraid you're

going to be chained to the business...

I'm just worried.

Anyway I'm supposed to be supporting you.

You support me?

Aren't we still a couple?

Speaking of that,

shouldn't we be sharing information?

What do you know?

I'm talking about Uncle.

The police and the prosecution are searching for him but there's no trace.

I wonder if he is simply hiding?

I heard something interesting In the early morning of the day that he disappeared.

By accident.

Hyeon Cheol.

This is because you were not careful.

Why did you bring your death upon yourself?

Why did you dig your own grave?

Was that the end?

Those two, although they were cousins, had a brother and sister relationship.

So?

You also have speculated

If your mother really killed uncle, if she did,

without a drop of blood shared with the Young Master ( Min Ho.)

wouldn't it have been easier?

Can Jeong Won really be released?

Don't worry too much. It will turn out fine.

Right. You will make it so, right?

Yes.

I'm sorry. You must be busy.

Woo Hyeok.

Please speak.

Even if she did as people say, she must've had a reason.

That sweetheart of a woman...

I knew clearly she was beaten but she never told me about it.

It wasn't just once or twice.

If I could have, I wanted to kill that bastard Tae Min Ho.

If, just if,

truly if, just if, even if she did as they say

you won't give up on Jeong Won, right?

Even if Jeong Won lets go of my hand, I will never let go of hers.

Thank you, Woo Hyeok.

Woo Hyeok, thank you.

Han Jeong Won's Phone Record

I need to go somewhere for a while.

What? Right now?

Prosecutor.

What about the interrogation of the suspect?

I'll be right back. Please delay it until I return.

Oh Yeong Law Office

Is something the matter?

- I called. I'm Prosecutor Cha Woo Hyeok. - Oh, yes.

Deokyang Hospital

May I ask you few questions?

Police

Madame

The person you have called can't be reached...

I knew it was too easy.

Easy is no fun.

Don't be disappointed.

I will make it enjoyable for you.

See, it's slowly becoming enjoyable.

- Hello? - Prosecutor, where are you?

They're fussing and telling me to wrap it up

and submit a petition for the arrest warrant.

I'm almost there so wait a little while.

Prosecutor. Get in.

Okay.

Interrogation Room

Hello.

Prosecutor Cha. It's me Ricky.

Ricky?

Your voice doesn't sound like you're glad. Weren't you looking hard for me?

Where are you now?

Yes, that's how it is supposed to be.

Shall we meet?

I'll tell you everything you've wondered about.

What kind of card I have,

No, what happened to your father.

Who was the cause of it. Everything.

I'm tied up right now.

After a short time. We'll meet in a little while.

Where is it? I'll go to you.

Is that it?

Do you think you'll have another chance?

Ricky! Ricky!

The next chance?

There's no such thing in the world.

You know it when it's already passed by.

It's not the next chance which is important

but the one you have right in front of you now.

This is the last interrogation before the arrest warrant will be issued.

Your answers will determine whether you will be detained.

Please answer carefully.

Last January 27th, your husband President Tae Min Ho

died in the chairman's office of Geosan headquarters.

Do you remember your alibi interview right after the incident?

Yes, I do remember.

Did you tell us you got home around 2 am on the day of the incident?

Yes.

According to evidence we obtained, it turns out that statement was untrue.

Why did you fabricate the alibi?

Th-that...

It seems you can't answer.

Because at that time you were with Tae Min Ho.

At approximately 1 a.m. of the day of the incident,

you received a call from Tae Min Ho, right?

Min Ho

Come immediately.

I'm saying I'll give you the divorce you want.

If you don't come quickly right now, I might change my mind.

You received the phone call and went to see him, right?

Yes.

You had been preparing to get a divorce.

These are the details of your deposit of money

to a law office specializing in divorce.

Detailed Statement of Deposits and Withdrawals

10,000,000 won Paid to Oh Yeong Law Firm

You asked Tae Min Ho for a divorce, right?

Divorce?

For whose benefit?

Break up with that bastard immediately.

If not, I will reveal everything.

Imagine it.

What will happen to you and that bastard?

It's all over now.

Take a look here.

Now it's all going to be mine.

It's the same for you too.

I'm going.

I said it's all mine.

Including you.

Enough!

Naturally, he would not have easily accepted a divorce.

So the two of you scuffled.

Say it. "I love you."

Hurry and say you love only me.

Oppa.

Aren't you saying it?

Stay put.

Say you love me.

Aren't you going to say it?

Fine. You are being punished for that too.

Who is it?

Will you stab me with that?

Move out of my way.

Again violence ensued.

There, you couldn't bear it,

and you stabbed your husband Tae Min Ho with a knife.

And that's how his death happened.

Do you acknowledge that?

I'll ask you again.

Do you admit that you killed your husband Tae Min Ho?

This is a video of the murder scene.

These are your medical records from Deokyang Hospital.

Contusion.

Contusion.

Abrasion.

Fracture.

According to the medical records, you were regularly beaten. Is that right?

Hospital Director Kim Seon Tae's testimony confirmed you have sustained bone fractures

and flesh wounds from repeated assaults.

The person who subjected you to such cruel

violence was your husband Tae Min Ho, correct?

The mouse was cornered and bit the cat.

It must have been so unbearable that you wanted to die.

To others you two appeared to be happily married.

That's what even the families believed.

You couldn't tell anyone because you are a famous actress

with the title of daughter-in-law of a chaebol family.

And then you couldn't stand it anymore.

If Tae Min Ho became the Geosan Group successor,

you wouldn't be able to escape forever.

Unable to tolerate it any longer, you asked Tae

Min Ho for a divorce the day of the incident.

Wasn't that it?

The request for a divorce must have enraged Tae Min Ho.

Losing his mind, Tae Min Ho assaulted you again.

This is a record that there was a remaining mark of being

strangled on your neck Immediately after the incident.

Why are you silent? Why?

Isn't it that you had no other choice to save your life?

Please answer.

Do you admit you killed him in order to defend yourself?

I don't want to answer any more.

You were curious about how your father had died, right?

What is the reason for killing my father?

- Father? - Tell me!

What I need is the information on Prosecutor Cha.

Cha Woo Hyeok. You brought all this to yourself.

You can't even tell me that?

If you commit a crime, you must pay.

That's what you, Cha Woo Hyeok always said.

I will find a way to reinvestigate this again.

I refuse to be interrogated again.

Geosan Group will defend me now.

How did you come to have this?

Don't you think the fact I have it is important? Get me out of here.

You are trying to make a deal with that mere piece of paper?

Even if I am carrying Min Ho's child?

I may not have any rights but the child is a different story.
