[This program is suitable
for viewers ages 15 and up.]
Kang Soo Jin!
The mother of the kidnapped child
revealed the identity of the
culprit in front of the reporters
and the police have also decided
to make this into a public investigation
and are taking aggressive measures
such as handing out
fliers about the culprit.
The culprit, Kang Soo Jin, is
162 centimeters tall, and has short hair.
Mom.
We have to get on that.
Huh?
People with kids
are all getting on that.
They're all going to a place
called Nami Island.
The truth has yet to be found.
This means that Kim Hye Na's location
has yet to be revealed, as well.
As this is a dire situation and we do not
know whether Ms. Kim is alive or dead
we need everyone's cooperation.
Tons of information
will come flooding in now.
We'll be able to catch her soon.
Where did we follow
Kang Soo Jin up until?
Pardon?
We saw up to the part where
she got out of that doctor's car
and got into Nam Hong Hee's car.
The doctor's mother
passed away six years ago.
And then we tracked the location
of his mother's phone.
The younger sister of Kang Soo Jin,
the suspect, called the police.
Then Kang Soo Jin took Hye Na
and was taking Nam Hong Hee's car.
And somewhere along the way,
Hye Na was kidnapped by Lee Seol Ak.
So, she went after Lee Seol Ak
with that doctor.
- That's correct.
- But...
Nam Hong Hee was in the middle of moving.
I'm sure she was busy
enough on the day of her move
so why did she take
Kang Soo Jin with her, in her car?
What kind of relationship
do those two have?
Do people take their tenants
with them when they move?
Look into who Nam Hong Hee is.
Jang Oh Gyun.
Yes?
I got so many tickets
for that ride for you
so what do you mean,
you don't want to go on it?
But, Dad!
How am I supposed to ride that?
It's scary!
No, I'm going to go on it.
Go take the boat by yourself.
You can't get on it either, Dad!
It's too dangerous!
No, I'm going to get on it.
I'm going to get on it and show
you just how fun and safe it is.
I'll go take it by myself,
so go and take the ferry by yourself.
Excuse me!
We'd like to ask everyone
a couple of questions.
Thank you.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Excuse me.
Thank you.
So her mother and
her mom's boyfriend abused her.
The public authorities
were not of much help
and the teacher was
trying to protect the child.
One can only understand this case
if they know what happened to the child.
You did a good job
of organizing all of this.
All of the other media outlets
are obsessing over the point of,
"How could a teacher kidnap her student?"
so this could offer a
different perspective on the case.
But I received a report from
a teacher whom she used to work with
and she said she doesn't think
this was the first time
that the mom's boyfriend,
Lee Seol Ak, had harmed the child.
Is that information reliable?
We've found out the child's name
and her kindergarten
so I think I'll be able to
find out if I dig more.
Lee Seol Ak is already dead
so the police won't be
investigating him further, either.
I'll give it a try.
But the most important part right now
is that the culprit is the adopted
daughter of actress Cha Young Shin.
- What?
- You didn't know?
Everyone is in an uproar about it.
Wasn't there a member of their
family who revealed information?
Um...
- that's...
- Well.
if you're too busy to
look into that too
shall I reassign this story?
No, I'll take that on as well.
All right. I know it'll be hard,
but I'll leave it to you until the end.
You can do it, right?
- Yes, Sir.
- Of course you can.
Um, yes. Madam Cha
is quite ill at the moment.
And because of that, I can't
confirm everything for you.
Please be understanding.
Oh, yes, yes!
Of course, of course!
We've decided to not
do anything at all.
My mom?
She's calm.
Don't watch the news today,
or pick up any phone calls
so that she can calm down.
That's the only way she'll be able to
handle whatever else comes her way.
You heard him, right?
I'll be going now, then.
Sure, go ahead.
Take care.
Doctor Jung.
Thank you.
Goodbye.
Goodbye.
Mother-in-law is the third most searched
term online right now. Look into it.
Mom, you're the third most
searched term online right now!
Turn your phone off!
Huh?
Turn yours off too, Mister.
It's Hyun Jin, okay? Hyun Jin!
Geez, cut me some slack.
Yeah, Hyun Jin?
How is Mom holding up?
She's hanging in there through
her mental strength.
You guys aren't going to make
any formal statements, right?
Of course not.
What could we possibly say?
If you end up doing so,
be sure to let me know first.
Goodness, seriously.
I thought you were her daughter,
but you're just another reporter!
Hey!
If you want to talk about that,
I'm hanging up.
Jae Beom.
Give me the phone.
Just a second.
I'm putting your mom on the line.
Hyun Jin.
What time are you coming home today?
I'll be getting home late, Mom.
Set aside some
free time tomorrow, then.
I want to do an interview.
Wait, Madam!
You can't, Mom!
Sheesh.
They have a room available,
thank goodness.
The check-in time is 3 p.m.,
so shall we take a walk until then?
When you're here, Mom
the only way you won't be noticed
is if you seem happy.
Smile, Mom.
Smile, Mom!
Mom.
Yeah?
What kind of cloud
is that one, up there?
Well...
that cloud is...
a cirrus cloud.
It looks like Jjing.
Jjing used to really love corn.
Do you get reminded of Jjing
when you eat delicious things?
Yes.
And Grandma, too.
Whenever she went out
she would always
come back with a snack...
for me to eat.
So, I think about Grandma
every time I eat potato chips.
Grandma felt good when she saw me
enjoying the potato chips
that she bought me.
I see.
That's why I wasn't that scared
even though I was
definitely scared.
When Uncle said that
he would kill me
I thought about the fact that
I would be going to where
Jjing and Grandma are.
To Mommy...
that cloud looks like a map.
How far away can I take you?
How far away can we get?
I think that we've
already come pretty far.
When I used to live
with my old mom
the farthest places that I knew of
were the supermarket and laundromat.
We'll go much farther away than that.
And, in that place...
we'll be reminiscing
about this moment.
Let's look at the clouds again then.
And see what the clouds there
remind us of.
When there are cirrus clouds in the sky,
it means that it could rain tomorrow.
If it rains tomorrow,
will we go and take a boat?
I don't think we can.
It's still too dangerous right now.
Then, when will it be
not dangerous?
Do you want to go and take the boat?
Yes.
That will be quite a
dangerous thing to do.
We could end up
getting separated there.
And if that's the case,
this will be our final trip.
That's why...
it's difficult for Mommy
to make this decision.
You understand what
I'm getting at, right?
"Final trip"?
Ow!
What's the matter?
Your tooth fell out.
Am I bleeding?
It seems okay to me.
Here.
Let's keep this safe
so that we can throw it on a roof
and make a wish later.
Huh?
It's that older kid from before.
I read your article.
Based on what you wrote,
it seemed like Kang Soo Jin
had no choice but to kidnap my child
because I abused her so much.
Oh, is that how it seemed to you?
All I did was state the facts
I found while I investigated
such as how the child was abused
and how the school center
and police were incompetent
and failed to protect the child.
Write about Kang Soo Jin, too.
That's only fair.
Write about how that woman was
abused when she was young
so she projected herself onto Hye Na
and forced her feelings onto her!
About how she made it seem like
my child was dead and ran off with her.
And about how she
even changed Hye Na's name
and is acting as if
she's her daughter now!
Doesn't she...
seriously seem like a psychopath to you?
I'm open to any suggestions
that you may have for an article.
But right now
I'm doing some research to
write a follow-up article.
And it's about Mr. Lee Seol Ak.
I received a report stating that
this isn't the first time that
Lee Seol Ak abused the child.
And there seemed to be a child he knew...
who died a couple of years ago.
Hye Na knows some things about me.
About the women I dated
before dating you.
About those women's kids.
And about the things
that happened to those kids.
Oh, stop it!
Stop talking about things like that!
It's scaring me!
Team Leader.
Nam Hong Hee from
Samhwa Barber Shop has priors.
She was sentenced to
8 years in jail in 1986 for murder
and served 6 years.
A murderer helped a kidnapper escape?
Did you find out her new address?
I don't think she
officially registered it yet.
Call the moving company.
Run a search on her license plate
and get her call logs, too!
Yes, Prosecutor?
Shin Ja Young is refusing to
confess and wants to speak to me?
Where are you from?
- Me?
- Yeah.
And where are you from?
I'm from Yisan.
Do you know where Yisan is?
We're from there, too.
My grandma moved there, you see.
Really?
Do you know Master Lee's
taekwondo dojo there?
No.
My dad is the person
who runs that place.
We took the dojo's car here.
I wanted to learn taekwondo, too!
How old are you?
Me?
Eight years old.
Then you can learn from me.
I'm nine years old.
And I got my black belt last week.
Do you know what a black belt is?
Do you?
Um...
I see the hotel.
You can go alone from this point, right?
Jang Oh Gyun!
Where were you?
Did you know that
your cell phone was off?
Thank you for bringing me back.
Bye.
Bye.
Thank you.
Let's go.
Mom.
I don't know why,
but when I'm with you
everything feels so cozy and soft
and so nice. Why is that?
Um, you haven't eaten yet, I see.
Um, yes. My child suddenly
fell asleep, you see.
We're planning to grill up
some pork belly right now.
Would you like to join us?
Thank you for the offer,
but we've been on the train all day
so I want to get some rest.
Um, then wait.
It's actually my son's birthday today.
It's his first birthday after
his mom passed away last year.
But that kid has been so down lately
so I said, "Hey, let's get some of
your friends and go on a trip."
That's why we came,
but none of his friends showed up.
Five of them said that
they were coming
so I prepared for eight people
and got a van that can seat seven
but nobody showed up this morning.
I got five messages
at the same time
that something had come up
and they couldn't come. Sheesh.
I may run a taekwondo dojo
but it made me wonder if all kids
nowadays are like this.
Or it makes me wonder
if my kid is an outcast
and I was the only
one who didn't know.
Oh, I heard from my son that
your daughter wants to learn taekwondo.
I can't thank you enough for
what you did for us today.
So can you ask your daughter
if she wants to grill pork belly with us
tonight and learn some taekwondo?
The thing is, I bought 10 servings
of pork to feed the kids.
Dying is the best thing...
that a bad kid can do for their mom.
If you don't...
Do you think you'll be able
to die in Hye Na's stead?
Huh?
Your mom will die.
What's the matter, Yoon Bok?
Did you have a bad dream?
Goodness, look at how
much you're sweating.
Can you tell Mommy what it was about?
Mom!
Let's run away.
Far, far away.
Somewhere where nobody will
be able to come after us.
It's okay.
Sir!
There's a record from
an insurance company
stating that Nam Hong Hee's car
was in an accident yesterday.
Yisan City, Seosoo-myun, Mijang-ri.
8:45 p.m.
Isn't this when Lee Seol Ak
kidnapped Hye Na?
Yes.
- Let's head to the jail, then go here.
- Yes, Sir.
My Honey...
told me only a couple of hours ago
that he wanted to go
to the beach with me.
And he said that he'd make me happy.
And yet...
you're telling me that he's dead?
I can't believe that.
Well, these things happen.
Nobody ever expects
these kinds of things.
For example, someone you'd made plans
with to have dinner with, hours earlier
could turn up dead
because they committed suicide.
My Honey isn't that kind of person!
Something definitely happened.
And I need to know what that was.
Lee Seol Ak kidnapped Hye Na
and demanded a ransom,
as you are well aware.
Kang Soo Jin went there
and got Hye Na out.
And when the police went there,
they found Lee Seol Ak.
He committed suicide
because he felt pressured.
And he set the house on fire.
Exactly!
Why would he have set the house on
fire if he wanted to commit suicide?
It's obvious that someone set it up so
that it looked like he committed suicide
and then set the house on fire!
I saw him myself.
Right before he died.
You...
saw him?
Right before he died?
How was he?
Did he seem sad?
Huh?
Hey, ma'am!
Hye Na...
was tied up there!
Don't you think Hye Na
must have been scared?
We still have no idea
what he did to her!
My Honey...
isn't someone who'd do
something bad to Hye Na.
Just look.
The one who ended up dying
in the end was my Honey.
Hye Na escaped safely with that woman
so why the hell would
I be worried about her?
Are you...
really even her mom?
I'd want to stop being that, if I could.
Being a mom, I mean.
That choice wasn't available to me.
But can't I stop being a mom now?
To me...
my Honey was the only one I had.
Now, I have nothing left.
Who killed him?
Was it Kang Soo Jin?
Was it you people?
Taegeuk 1-Jang, ready!
Start!
All right, next.
It's been a bit less
than a year...
since Oh Gyun's mother
died of ovarian cancer.
But I have no idea
how that kid will end up.
If I just let him be,
he's just on his phone all day.
So I make him do
taekwondo all day.
I make him take the 3 o'clock class,
4 o'clock class, and 5 o'clock class.
The thing about men is
they try to forget things
by overexerting their bodies.
While exercising.
They forget...
But he's kind of clumsy.
He got his black belt not too long ago
but he lost it.
Even though I'm sure that must be the
greatest treasure to a nine-year-old.
So...
And then...
I know your secret.
My... secret?
Your mom...
is going to pass away soon, right?
My mom is?
I heard everything.
Back in the forest earlier.
About how this will be
the last trip that you two take.
Oh.
I came here for my
final trip with my mom, too.
Just like you guys.
Oh.
You can't believe your mom...
if she promises you that...
she'll definitely get better...
and that she definitely won't die.
Because I believed
all that, too...
but my mom died.
So...
you have to keep telling her
that you love her.
Because...
you don't know if she'll
end up dying tomorrow.
And when she dies...
it's all over.
And, when your mom dies...
you have to tell her
that you're okay.
If you cry and cling to her
saying things like,
"No," or "You can't..."
how do you think
your mom will feel?
Is that what you did?
You cried and stuff?
Yeah.
- Thank you for the meal.
- Thank you for the meal.
Dad.
Can't we give Yoon Bok
and her mom a ride home tomorrow?
Why don't you ask?
Want to take our car with us tomorrow?
Really?
I really wanted to ride in
a taekwondo dojo's van.
Yoon Bok.
- We--
- Let's go together.
Well, we're going to
continue traveling, so...
What a shame.
Oh Gyun would have been so happy
if you two came with us.
Where are we going tomorrow?
Is there another place where we can go?
You're right, Yoon Bok.
We have nowhere to go.
We'll be in danger no matter where we go.
And I'm sure that this place
will become dangerous tomorrow, too.
It's just because...
I'm so scared, is all.
I just want to be careful.
I want to be as
careful as possible.
I'll throw my tooth
onto the roof now.
One, two, three!
Did you make a wish?
Yes.
What did you wish for?
I heard that you have to keep your
wishes a secret for them to come true.
Really?
Then tell me when it comes true, okay?
All right.
Let's go.
- Goodbye.
- Yes, thank you for your hard work.
- Goodbye.
- Goodbye!
Hello!
I'm Reporter Kang Hyun Jin
from the Jungyi Daily.
Oh.
I'm currently investigating
the kidnapping of a student
from an elementary school in Mooryung.
Do you know someone named
Lee Seol Ak, by any chance?
You do, don't you?
No, I don't.
I don't know anyone by that name.
Lee Seol Ak...
kidnapped an
elementary schooler from Mooryung
and was discovered after having
committed suicide in Chuncheon yesterday.
You...
still don't know him?
If this article is published...
the police will investigate this, right?
Yes, that could happen.
But...
I will cooperate with the investigation.
I need to be punished, too.
I think that this was for the best.
My Won Hee...
keeps crying...
and following me,
ever since that day.
And if I want to embrace that child...
If I want to become a mom again...
It may be too late...
for Won Hee and the other kids.
But I think this is the only way
that I can plead for forgiveness.
Why did Won Hee die?
Your son, Won Hee.
I said, why did he die?
Yoon Bok's mom?
Oh Gyun's father.
[Hahm Soo Jung]
This is Oh Gyun's mom's tree.
Last year... no wait,
it was two years ago.
We came and planted this when
she was still well enough to travel.
But Oh Gyun, that punk...
I saw him sneaking out earlier
and tying this to the tree.
I gave him a really severe
scolding for losing that, too.
I guess he wanted to
tie it around his mom.
Goodness.
I heard from Oh Gyun...
that you are quite ill, too.
Me?
Apparently, Oh Gyun
happened to overhear...
that this will probably be
the last trip you take.
I'm sorry if I overstepped my boundaries.
No, it's fine.
I actually wanted to
speak to you about it sooner
because Oh Gyun and I...
have already been
through this once before.
When my wife got
pregnant with Oh Gyun...
she already had
stage one ovarian cancer.
To be honest, the fact that
we had Oh Gyun is a miracle.
The doctor warned us
saying that the cancer could spread
more and more as the child
grew bigger and bigger.
But Oh Gyun's mom didn't even
give it a second thought.
He was a child she got pregnant with
amidst such struggles.
So she said that she didn't care
if her life would be in danger.
And that she'd venture forth
on this journey with the child.
But...
even when Oh Gyun's mom was
right on death's doorstep...
there was nothing that
I could do for her, really.
All I had were my words.
All I could do was
thank her with my words.
All I could do was thank her...
for the time that she,
Oh Gyun, and I spent together...
and for all the memories of the
things we experienced together...
that nothing on this earth...
could change.
How was Oh Gyun after that?
Was he okay?
Didn't he have a really hard time?
Kids have a tendency of knowing...
that their mom made certain
choices for their sake.
Other kids feel their moms' love
through their moms' touch every day.
But my Oh Gyun...
just knows.
He feels his mom's love.
His mom's courage.
Sometimes, I feel like
that's good enough.
I'm sure there will be
other hardships in his life.
But it's a dad's job to
protect him from such things.
Could we...
possibly...
come with you two tomorrow?
You're going to leave tomorrow?
I think we'll be able to, yes.
Ma'am.
It's me, Soo Jin.
Do you think, by any chance...
that we could get on a boat tomorrow?
You want to come here to take a boat?
Your face is all over the TV right now!
How are you going to get
all the way here with a kid?
I'm sure the terminals and
train stations will be full of cops!
I'm going to try.
You gave us the money already
so come back here anytime
once things have settled down
and take the boat then.
It's too dangerous right now!
It'll be dangerous for us no matter
where we go right now, anyway.
If we get there safely...
you'll help us get on the boat, right?
Well, if you get here...
of course I'll do anything I can
to get you on a boat.
Thank you.
But...
please don't tell my mother.
Just in case the cops
might come after her.
Yeah.
This is the spot.
The one who caused the accident
was definitely the young woman.
But when the insurance company
came by to take statements
an elderly woman came forth
and said that she did it!
So I said to myself, "There is
definitely something wrong here."
They may be mother
and daughter, but--
Wait.
Did you just say
"mother and daughter"?
Yeah, I heard the two of them talking.
The daughter was
calling the lady "Mother."
Yi Jin.
What did you want to say before?
I'm sorry for what I did, Mom.
For calling the police.
I didn't do it so that
Big Sis would get caught.
I had no idea that the police
would go after her, really.
If...
something bad happens to Big Sis...
what do I do?
Yi Jin.
Hug me.
Yi Jin, if...
the same thing were to happen to you...
I would have done
all of the same things...
that I did for Soo Jin for you, too.
But, of course,
you're a sensible girl
so you wouldn't go...
and cause trouble like Soo Jin did.
Yi Jin.
Forget what I said...
about disowning you.
I upset you a lot
by saying that, didn't I?
I'm sorry.
Okay?
30 years ago...
on that night...
I wonder what kinds of thoughts were
running through my mom's mind.
Maybe something like, "I don't want
to be arrested in front of my child."
Or, "I can't make
my child go through that."
Or maybe that she had no other choice...
but to do the most difficult
and scary thing...
in the whole world.
I've never once thought that
I could forgive my mother before now.
I've never once thought that I would
become a mother before now.
[Kim Yoon Bok]
But now...
I must have become a mother.
[Kim Yoon Bok]
Why am I wearing such
pretty clothes, Mom?
Today's an important day.
And even if someone ends up
taking you away...
I want to show everyone
just how important you are to me.
Someone could end up taking me away?
Yoon Bok.
I don't want to lie to you.
We may be able to safely get
onto a boat that will go overseas today.
But there's also a chance that we could
be caught by the police, and separated.
It was in a moment like this
that Granny Finger
left me at House of Love
and went to the police station alone.
Because she didn't want me to
see her getting arrested.
Can you understand why
she would feel that way?
But as for me...
if she'd asked me...
I would have told her...
that I wanted to be
with her until the end
no matter how dangerous it was.
If only for one more second.
And that's why I want to
ask you this now.
If we go to take the boat today...
we could end up in a lot of danger.
I could end up...
getting arrested,
right before your eyes.
And the two of us...
may end up getting separated
for a long time.
Do you still want to go?
Yes, I want to go with you, Mom.
If you're in danger, I want to
be in danger with you, Mom.
All right.
And I think that we'll be able to
get on the boat safely.
We have luck on our side, after all.
Yeah.
[Kim Yoon Bok]
Even so...
if we end up getting
separated, open this.
All right.
Oh yeah, Mom.
I love you.
You do?
I love you, too.
On the day that
Nam Hong Hee moved
she went out of her way to take
Kang Soo Jin with her.
That's not concrete evidence,
that's just an assumption!
Right now, in Chuncheon,
Mooryung, and Seoul
all of the men we have available to us
are looking for two people.
And yet, we have to ask the police
in Yisan for help again
just because of your assumption?
Um, Chief.
Please trust in me,
just one more time.
Train stations. Terminals.
And harbors, in particular.
There's a big chance that
they'll try to flee by boat.
Gosh, I can't take this.
If we slip up this time,
it'll be the end for me, too.
You know that, right?
Yes, Sir.
And yet, you want me to trust
in you just once more?
Yes, Sir.
All right, then.
Get the Chief of Police in Yisan
on the line for me.
What's going on?
Why is there a checkpoint here?
It has been revealed that
Kim Hye Na, who went missing from
Baek Island, Mooryung, Gangwon Province,
was kidnapped by a "Ms. Kang"
who was a substitute teacher
at her elementary school
which has shocked many.
Goodness, I can't believe this.
How could a teacher
kidnap her own student?
It could have been that...
the kid's mom hit the kid
a lot, or something.
She should have called the cops, then!
How could she just kidnap the child?
But, Dad.
What if the police don't listen?
Oh Gyun.
Even if that may be the case
that person is a criminal from the moment
that they break the law.
What would you do if you saw
those two on the street?
I'd definitely turn them in.
Don't you remember?
I got a thank you plaque from the police
long ago for catching a thief.
Oh yeah, my dad did that!
The investigators are currently trying to
locate Ms. Kang's whereabouts
and have made this
into an open investigation.
Um, can't you put on
some music for us?
This is boring.
Sure.
Kim Hye Na is a young girl
who turned nine years old this year.
She is 120 centimeters tall
and weighs 21 kilograms.
She has a purple birthmark
on her left underarm.
Hello?
Hey, Hong Hee.
Yes, Eun Seo?
Soo Jin said she'd come by
later to get on a boat.
But we won't be able to get her on one
right now with all the cops around.
Ugh, but I can't even get in
touch with Soo Jin right now.
She's coming all this way,
and with a kid, too.
So I'd feel really bad
if I couldn't get her on a boat.
So I had no choice but to
make a call to that person.
But that boat is pretty expensive.
I think we'll have to pay them
double in this kind of situation.
Can you take care of that bit for me?
When do I need to have it ready by?
Come to the parking lot
at Mayoung Harbor by 4:30.
All right, I will.
Team Leader.
She came out.
Follow her.
Oh!
I spilled something, Mom.
Oh no.
Are you okay?
Thank you for your hard work.
We'd like to check your
vehicle, if you don't mind.
Sure.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Yes, thank you.
She isn't using an ATM, but a teller.
I think this means she needs
to withdraw a lot of money.
Oh wow, she was nine years old.
Let's go, Oh Gyun.
Dad!
Let's hurry and go, Dad!
Okay?
Dad!
Oh Gyun and his dad...
probably saw that, right?
Thankfully, I brought my bag.
Let's part ways with them here.
Let's go.
Oh, thank you for all of your hard work.
I think someone stole my wallet
from me in the bathroom just now.
Is it possible for me to
file a report right now?
We're searching the
area for a criminal right now.
So please, go to the nearest precinct
to file your report.
But I got pick-pocketed
literally just now!
You have to check the cameras
and catch the culprit!
When will I have time
to go file a report?
It's not like there is one nearby!
I'm sorry, sir.
What?
Ma'am.
It's me, Soo Jin.
She suddenly went to the bank
after getting a call.
And now she's been driving toward
Mayoung Harbor for the past 30 minutes.
Something is definitely up.
Don't you feel it, too?
Request for backup
from Yisan Police Station.
What are you doing?
Team Leader.
Nobody knows yet that we've
followed her up to here, right?
It's true that you and I both
have suffered a lot thus far.
But if I drive slowly right now...
we can lose sight
of Nam Hong Hee's car.
And then, Kang Soo Jin...
may be able to get on a boat
tonight with Hye Na.
What are you saying right now?
You saw how Hye Na's mom reacted, too.
If we catch Kang Soo Jin today
Hye Na may have to go back
to a woman like her.
She put her life at risk to run away.
She really almost died!
So, can't we just play dumb today...
and let Kang Soo Jin go?
Everyone's been saying that it seems
like Kang Soo Jin really loves that kid.
You crazy bastard!
I told you not to think about
this at all, didn't I?
Don't say another word
and floor it.
Hey, I said floor it! Hey!
You'll see someone fishing
all the way at the end of the dock.
Put the money in their cooler.
That person will say...
"There are rockfish
and so-iuy mullets today."
There are rockfish
and so-iuy mullets today.
If they say that, that means that the
boat is ready to leave today as planned.
Let's go.
Captain! Over here!
Hurry, hurry!
Hurry!
Huh?
Oh no.
Turn the boat around!
Turn the boat around!
Captain!
Kang Soo Jin.
You're under arrest for the
kidnapping and confinement of a minor.
You have the right to remain silent.
And anything you say can be used
against you in a court of law.
You have the right to an attorney.
What are you doing, punk?
Take Hye Na and put her in another car!
Come here, Hye Na.
Yoon Bok! Yoon Bok!
- Mom!
- No!
Yoon Bok!
Oh, Soo Jin!
No! No!
No!
Yoon Bok!
Mom!
Oh, Yoon Bok!
Yoon Bok!
Mom!
No! No! No!
Please, no!
Mom!
- Mom!
- Yoon Bok!
Don't push my mom!
You're hurting my mom!
Mom!
Mom!
Mom!
Yoon Bok!
Mom!
[Call Me Mother]

I had no idea that
it would be this painful
to be forced to leave
Hye Na behind and go.
I want to request that the public be
able to participate in the trial.
There's something that I
really want to say to her.
All Hye Na's mom
did was give birth to her.
My Soo Jin is her real mom.
Are you claiming that she committed
the crime while mentally ill?
Yes, that's correct.
Let's work hard and get you
the not guilty verdict.
I could be declared
"not guilty"?
The only one Yoon Bok
can trust right now is you.
So you have to fight on.
Because you're her mom.
[This program is suitable
for viewers ages 15 and up.]
Kang Soo Jin!
The mother of the kidnapped child
revealed the identity of the
culprit in front of the reporters
and the police have also decided
to make this into a public investigation
and are taking aggressive measures
such as handing out
fliers about the culprit.
The culprit, Kang Soo Jin, is
162 centimeters tall, and has short hair.
Mom.
We have to get on that.
Huh?
People with kids
are all getting on that.
They're all going to a place
called Nami Island.
The truth has yet to be found.
This means that Kim Hye Na's location
has yet to be revealed, as well.
As this is a dire situation and we do not
know whether Ms. Kim is alive or dead
we need everyone's cooperation.
Tons of information
will come flooding in now.
We'll be able to catch her soon.
Where did we follow
Kang Soo Jin up until?
Pardon?
We saw up to the part where
she got out of that doctor's car
and got into Nam Hong Hee's car.
The doctor's mother
passed away six years ago.
And then we tracked the location
of his mother's phone.
The younger sister of Kang Soo Jin,
the suspect, called the police.
Then Kang Soo Jin took Hye Na
and was taking Nam Hong Hee's car.
And somewhere along the way,
Hye Na was kidnapped by Lee Seol Ak.
So, she went after Lee Seol Ak
with that doctor.
- That's correct.
- But...
Nam Hong Hee was in the middle of moving.
I'm sure she was busy
enough on the day of her move
so why did she take
Kang Soo Jin with her, in her car?
What kind of relationship
do those two have?
Do people take their tenants
with them when they move?
Look into who Nam Hong Hee is.
Jang Oh Gyun.
Yes?
I got so many tickets
for that ride for you
so what do you mean,
you don't want to go on it?
But, Dad!
How am I supposed to ride that?
It's scary!
No, I'm going to go on it.
Go take the boat by yourself.
You can't get on it either, Dad!
It's too dangerous!
No, I'm going to get on it.
I'm going to get on it and show
you just how fun and safe it is.
I'll go take it by myself,
so go and take the ferry by yourself.
Excuse me!
We'd like to ask everyone
a couple of questions.
Thank you.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Excuse me.
Thank you.
So her mother and
her mom's boyfriend abused her.
The public authorities
were not of much help
and the teacher was
trying to protect the child.
One can only understand this case
if they know what happened to the child.
You did a good job
of organizing all of this.
All of the other media outlets
are obsessing over the point of,
"How could a teacher kidnap her student?"
so this could offer a
different perspective on the case.
But I received a report from
a teacher whom she used to work with
and she said she doesn't think
this was the first time
that the mom's boyfriend,
Lee Seol Ak, had harmed the child.
Is that information reliable?
We've found out the child's name
and her kindergarten
so I think I'll be able to
find out if I dig more.
Lee Seol Ak is already dead
so the police won't be
investigating him further, either.
I'll give it a try.
But the most important part right now
is that the culprit is the adopted
daughter of actress Cha Young Shin.
- What?
- You didn't know?
Everyone is in an uproar about it.
Wasn't there a member of their
family who revealed information?
Um...
- that's...
- Well.
if you're too busy to
look into that too
shall I reassign this story?
No, I'll take that on as well.
All right. I know it'll be hard,
but I'll leave it to you until the end.
You can do it, right?
- Yes, Sir.
- Of course you can.
Um, yes. Madam Cha
is quite ill at the moment.
And because of that, I can't
confirm everything for you.
Please be understanding.
Oh, yes, yes!
Of course, of course!
We've decided to not
do anything at all.
My mom?
She's calm.
Don't watch the news today,
or pick up any phone calls
so that she can calm down.
That's the only way she'll be able to
handle whatever else comes her way.
You heard him, right?
I'll be going now, then.
Sure, go ahead.
Take care.
Doctor Jung.
Thank you.
Goodbye.
Goodbye.
Mother-in-law is the third most searched
term online right now. Look into it.
Mom, you're the third most
searched term online right now!
Turn your phone off!
Huh?
Turn yours off too, Mister.
It's Hyun Jin, okay? Hyun Jin!
Geez, cut me some slack.
Yeah, Hyun Jin?
How is Mom holding up?
She's hanging in there through
her mental strength.
You guys aren't going to make
any formal statements, right?
Of course not.
What could we possibly say?
If you end up doing so,
be sure to let me know first.
Goodness, seriously.
I thought you were her daughter,
but you're just another reporter!
Hey!
If you want to talk about that,
I'm hanging up.
Jae Beom.
Give me the phone.
Just a second.
I'm putting your mom on the line.
Hyun Jin.
What time are you coming home today?
I'll be getting home late, Mom.
Set aside some
free time tomorrow, then.
I want to do an interview.
Wait, Madam!
You can't, Mom!
Sheesh.
They have a room available,
thank goodness.
The check-in time is 3 p.m.,
so shall we take a walk until then?
When you're here, Mom
the only way you won't be noticed
is if you seem happy.
Smile, Mom.
Smile, Mom!
Mom.
Yeah?
What kind of cloud
is that one, up there?
Well...
that cloud is...
a cirrus cloud.
It looks like Jjing.
Jjing used to really love corn.
Do you get reminded of Jjing
when you eat delicious things?
Yes.
And Grandma, too.
Whenever she went out
she would always
come back with a snack...
for me to eat.
So, I think about Grandma
every time I eat potato chips.
Grandma felt good when she saw me
enjoying the potato chips
that she bought me.
I see.
That's why I wasn't that scared
even though I was
definitely scared.
When Uncle said that
he would kill me
I thought about the fact that
I would be going to where
Jjing and Grandma are.
To Mommy...
that cloud looks like a map.
How far away can I take you?
How far away can we get?
I think that we've
already come pretty far.
When I used to live
with my old mom
the farthest places that I knew of
were the supermarket and laundromat.
We'll go much farther away than that.
And, in that place...
we'll be reminiscing
about this moment.
Let's look at the clouds again then.
And see what the clouds there
remind us of.
When there are cirrus clouds in the sky,
it means that it could rain tomorrow.
If it rains tomorrow,
will we go and take a boat?
I don't think we can.
It's still too dangerous right now.
Then, when will it be
not dangerous?
Do you want to go and take the boat?
Yes.
That will be quite a
dangerous thing to do.
We could end up
getting separated there.
And if that's the case,
this will be our final trip.
That's why...
it's difficult for Mommy
to make this decision.
You understand what
I'm getting at, right?
"Final trip"?
Ow!
What's the matter?
Your tooth fell out.
Am I bleeding?
It seems okay to me.
Here.
Let's keep this safe
so that we can throw it on a roof
and make a wish later.
Huh?
It's that older kid from before.
I read your article.
Based on what you wrote,
it seemed like Kang Soo Jin
had no choice but to kidnap my child
because I abused her so much.
Oh, is that how it seemed to you?
All I did was state the facts
I found while I investigated
such as how the child was abused
and how the school center
and police were incompetent
and failed to protect the child.
Write about Kang Soo Jin, too.
That's only fair.
Write about how that woman was
abused when she was young
so she projected herself onto Hye Na
and forced her feelings onto her!
About how she made it seem like
my child was dead and ran off with her.
And about how she
even changed Hye Na's name
and is acting as if
she's her daughter now!
Doesn't she...
seriously seem like a psychopath to you?
I'm open to any suggestions
that you may have for an article.
But right now
I'm doing some research to
write a follow-up article.
And it's about Mr. Lee Seol Ak.
I received a report stating that
this isn't the first time that
Lee Seol Ak abused the child.
And there seemed to be a child he knew...
who died a couple of years ago.
Hye Na knows some things about me.
About the women I dated
before dating you.
About those women's kids.
And about the things
that happened to those kids.
Oh, stop it!
Stop talking about things like that!
It's scaring me!
Team Leader.
Nam Hong Hee from
Samhwa Barber Shop has priors.
She was sentenced to
8 years in jail in 1986 for murder
and served 6 years.
A murderer helped a kidnapper escape?
Did you find out her new address?
I don't think she
officially registered it yet.
Call the moving company.
Run a search on her license plate
and get her call logs, too!
Yes, Prosecutor?
Shin Ja Young is refusing to
confess and wants to speak to me?
Where are you from?
- Me?
- Yeah.
And where are you from?
I'm from Yisan.
Do you know where Yisan is?
We're from there, too.
My grandma moved there, you see.
Really?
Do you know Master Lee's
taekwondo dojo there?
No.
My dad is the person
who runs that place.
We took the dojo's car here.
I wanted to learn taekwondo, too!
How old are you?
Me?
Eight years old.
Then you can learn from me.
I'm nine years old.
And I got my black belt last week.
Do you know what a black belt is?
Do you?
Um...
I see the hotel.
You can go alone from this point, right?
Jang Oh Gyun!
Where were you?
Did you know that
your cell phone was off?
Thank you for bringing me back.
Bye.
Bye.
Thank you.
Let's go.
Mom.
I don't know why,
but when I'm with you
everything feels so cozy and soft
and so nice. Why is that?
Um, you haven't eaten yet, I see.
Um, yes. My child suddenly
fell asleep, you see.
We're planning to grill up
some pork belly right now.
Would you like to join us?
Thank you for the offer,
but we've been on the train all day
so I want to get some rest.
Um, then wait.
It's actually my son's birthday today.
It's his first birthday after
his mom passed away last year.
But that kid has been so down lately
so I said, "Hey, let's get some of
your friends and go on a trip."
That's why we came,
but none of his friends showed up.
Five of them said that
they were coming
so I prepared for eight people
and got a van that can seat seven
but nobody showed up this morning.
I got five messages
at the same time
that something had come up
and they couldn't come. Sheesh.
I may run a taekwondo dojo
but it made me wonder if all kids
nowadays are like this.
Or it makes me wonder
if my kid is an outcast
and I was the only
one who didn't know.
Oh, I heard from my son that
your daughter wants to learn taekwondo.
I can't thank you enough for
what you did for us today.
So can you ask your daughter
if she wants to grill pork belly with us
tonight and learn some taekwondo?
The thing is, I bought 10 servings
of pork to feed the kids.
Dying is the best thing...
that a bad kid can do for their mom.
If you don't...
Do you think you'll be able
to die in Hye Na's stead?
Huh?
Your mom will die.
What's the matter, Yoon Bok?
Did you have a bad dream?
Goodness, look at how
much you're sweating.
Can you tell Mommy what it was about?
Mom!
Let's run away.
Far, far away.
Somewhere where nobody will
be able to come after us.
It's okay.
Sir!
There's a record from
an insurance company
stating that Nam Hong Hee's car
was in an accident yesterday.
Yisan City, Seosoo-myun, Mijang-ri.
8:45 p.m.
Isn't this when Lee Seol Ak
kidnapped Hye Na?
Yes.
- Let's head to the jail, then go here.
- Yes, Sir.
My Honey...
told me only a couple of hours ago
that he wanted to go
to the beach with me.
And he said that he'd make me happy.
And yet...
you're telling me that he's dead?
I can't believe that.
Well, these things happen.
Nobody ever expects
these kinds of things.
For example, someone you'd made plans
with to have dinner with, hours earlier
could turn up dead
because they committed suicide.
My Honey isn't that kind of person!
Something definitely happened.
And I need to know what that was.
Lee Seol Ak kidnapped Hye Na
and demanded a ransom,
as you are well aware.
Kang Soo Jin went there
and got Hye Na out.
And when the police went there,
they found Lee Seol Ak.
He committed suicide
because he felt pressured.
And he set the house on fire.
Exactly!
Why would he have set the house on
fire if he wanted to commit suicide?
It's obvious that someone set it up so
that it looked like he committed suicide
and then set the house on fire!
I saw him myself.
Right before he died.
You...
saw him?
Right before he died?
How was he?
Did he seem sad?
Huh?
Hey, ma'am!
Hye Na...
was tied up there!
Don't you think Hye Na
must have been scared?
We still have no idea
what he did to her!
My Honey...
isn't someone who'd do
something bad to Hye Na.
Just look.
The one who ended up dying
in the end was my Honey.
Hye Na escaped safely with that woman
so why the hell would
I be worried about her?
Are you...
really even her mom?
I'd want to stop being that, if I could.
Being a mom, I mean.
That choice wasn't available to me.
But can't I stop being a mom now?
To me...
my Honey was the only one I had.
Now, I have nothing left.
Who killed him?
Was it Kang Soo Jin?
Was it you people?
Taegeuk 1-Jang, ready!
Start!
All right, next.
It's been a bit less
than a year...
since Oh Gyun's mother
died of ovarian cancer.
But I have no idea
how that kid will end up.
If I just let him be,
he's just on his phone all day.
So I make him do
taekwondo all day.
I make him take the 3 o'clock class,
4 o'clock class, and 5 o'clock class.
The thing about men is
they try to forget things
by overexerting their bodies.
While exercising.
They forget...
But he's kind of clumsy.
He got his black belt not too long ago
but he lost it.
Even though I'm sure that must be the
greatest treasure to a nine-year-old.
So...
And then...
I know your secret.
My... secret?
Your mom...
is going to pass away soon, right?
My mom is?
I heard everything.
Back in the forest earlier.
About how this will be
the last trip that you two take.
Oh.
I came here for my
final trip with my mom, too.
Just like you guys.
Oh.
You can't believe your mom...
if she promises you that...
she'll definitely get better...
and that she definitely won't die.
Because I believed
all that, too...
but my mom died.
So...
you have to keep telling her
that you love her.
Because...
you don't know if she'll
end up dying tomorrow.
And when she dies...
it's all over.
And, when your mom dies...
you have to tell her
that you're okay.
If you cry and cling to her
saying things like,
"No," or "You can't..."
how do you think
your mom will feel?
Is that what you did?
You cried and stuff?
Yeah.
- Thank you for the meal.
- Thank you for the meal.
Dad.
Can't we give Yoon Bok
and her mom a ride home tomorrow?
Why don't you ask?
Want to take our car with us tomorrow?
Really?
I really wanted to ride in
a taekwondo dojo's van.
Yoon Bok.
- We--
- Let's go together.
Well, we're going to
continue traveling, so...
What a shame.
Oh Gyun would have been so happy
if you two came with us.
Where are we going tomorrow?
Is there another place where we can go?
You're right, Yoon Bok.
We have nowhere to go.
We'll be in danger no matter where we go.
And I'm sure that this place
will become dangerous tomorrow, too.
It's just because...
I'm so scared, is all.
I just want to be careful.
I want to be as
careful as possible.
I'll throw my tooth
onto the roof now.
One, two, three!
Did you make a wish?
Yes.
What did you wish for?
I heard that you have to keep your
wishes a secret for them to come true.
Really?
Then tell me when it comes true, okay?
All right.
Let's go.
- Goodbye.
- Yes, thank you for your hard work.
- Goodbye.
- Goodbye!
Hello!
I'm Reporter Kang Hyun Jin
from the Jungyi Daily.
Oh.
I'm currently investigating
the kidnapping of a student
from an elementary school in Mooryung.
Do you know someone named
Lee Seol Ak, by any chance?
You do, don't you?
No, I don't.
I don't know anyone by that name.
Lee Seol Ak...
kidnapped an
elementary schooler from Mooryung
and was discovered after having
committed suicide in Chuncheon yesterday.
You...
still don't know him?
If this article is published...
the police will investigate this, right?
Yes, that could happen.
But...
I will cooperate with the investigation.
I need to be punished, too.
I think that this was for the best.
My Won Hee...
keeps crying...
and following me,
ever since that day.
And if I want to embrace that child...
If I want to become a mom again...
It may be too late...
for Won Hee and the other kids.
But I think this is the only way
that I can plead for forgiveness.
Why did Won Hee die?
Your son, Won Hee.
I said, why did he die?
Yoon Bok's mom?
Oh Gyun's father.
[Hahm Soo Jung]
This is Oh Gyun's mom's tree.
Last year... no wait,
it was two years ago.
We came and planted this when
she was still well enough to travel.
But Oh Gyun, that punk...
I saw him sneaking out earlier
and tying this to the tree.
I gave him a really severe
scolding for losing that, too.
I guess he wanted to
tie it around his mom.
Goodness.
I heard from Oh Gyun...
that you are quite ill, too.
Me?
Apparently, Oh Gyun
happened to overhear...
that this will probably be
the last trip you take.
I'm sorry if I overstepped my boundaries.
No, it's fine.
I actually wanted to
speak to you about it sooner
because Oh Gyun and I...
have already been
through this once before.
When my wife got
pregnant with Oh Gyun...
she already had
stage one ovarian cancer.
To be honest, the fact that
we had Oh Gyun is a miracle.
The doctor warned us
saying that the cancer could spread
more and more as the child
grew bigger and bigger.
But Oh Gyun's mom didn't even
give it a second thought.
He was a child she got pregnant with
amidst such struggles.
So she said that she didn't care
if her life would be in danger.
And that she'd venture forth
on this journey with the child.
But...
even when Oh Gyun's mom was
right on death's doorstep...
there was nothing that
I could do for her, really.
All I had were my words.
All I could do was
thank her with my words.
All I could do was thank her...
for the time that she,
Oh Gyun, and I spent together...
and for all the memories of the
things we experienced together...
that nothing on this earth...
could change.
How was Oh Gyun after that?
Was he okay?
Didn't he have a really hard time?
Kids have a tendency of knowing...
that their mom made certain
choices for their sake.
Other kids feel their moms' love
through their moms' touch every day.
But my Oh Gyun...
just knows.
He feels his mom's love.
His mom's courage.
Sometimes, I feel like
that's good enough.
I'm sure there will be
other hardships in his life.
But it's a dad's job to
protect him from such things.
Could we...
possibly...
come with you two tomorrow?
You're going to leave tomorrow?
I think we'll be able to, yes.
Ma'am.
It's me, Soo Jin.
Do you think, by any chance...
that we could get on a boat tomorrow?
You want to come here to take a boat?
Your face is all over the TV right now!
How are you going to get
all the way here with a kid?
I'm sure the terminals and
train stations will be full of cops!
I'm going to try.
You gave us the money already
so come back here anytime
once things have settled down
and take the boat then.
It's too dangerous right now!
It'll be dangerous for us no matter
where we go right now, anyway.
If we get there safely...
you'll help us get on the boat, right?
Well, if you get here...
of course I'll do anything I can
to get you on a boat.
Thank you.
But...
please don't tell my mother.
Just in case the cops
might come after her.
Yeah.
This is the spot.
The one who caused the accident
was definitely the young woman.
But when the insurance company
came by to take statements
an elderly woman came forth
and said that she did it!
So I said to myself, "There is
definitely something wrong here."
They may be mother
and daughter, but--
Wait.
Did you just say
"mother and daughter"?
Yeah, I heard the two of them talking.
The daughter was
calling the lady "Mother."
Yi Jin.
What did you want to say before?
I'm sorry for what I did, Mom.
For calling the police.
I didn't do it so that
Big Sis would get caught.
I had no idea that the police
would go after her, really.
If...
something bad happens to Big Sis...
what do I do?
Yi Jin.
Hug me.
Yi Jin, if...
the same thing were to happen to you...
I would have done
all of the same things...
that I did for Soo Jin for you, too.
But, of course,
you're a sensible girl
so you wouldn't go...
and cause trouble like Soo Jin did.
Yi Jin.
Forget what I said...
about disowning you.
I upset you a lot
by saying that, didn't I?
I'm sorry.
Okay?
30 years ago...
on that night...
I wonder what kinds of thoughts were
running through my mom's mind.
Maybe something like, "I don't want
to be arrested in front of my child."
Or, "I can't make
my child go through that."
Or maybe that she had no other choice...
but to do the most difficult
and scary thing...
in the whole world.
I've never once thought that
I could forgive my mother before now.
I've never once thought that I would
become a mother before now.
[Kim Yoon Bok]
But now...
I must have become a mother.
[Kim Yoon Bok]
Why am I wearing such
pretty clothes, Mom?
Today's an important day.
And even if someone ends up
taking you away...
I want to show everyone
just how important you are to me.
Someone could end up taking me away?
Yoon Bok.
I don't want to lie to you.
We may be able to safely get
onto a boat that will go overseas today.
But there's also a chance that we could
be caught by the police, and separated.
It was in a moment like this
that Granny Finger
left me at House of Love
and went to the police station alone.
Because she didn't want me to
see her getting arrested.
Can you understand why
she would feel that way?
But as for me...
if she'd asked me...
I would have told her...
that I wanted to be
with her until the end
no matter how dangerous it was.
If only for one more second.
And that's why I want to
ask you this now.
If we go to take the boat today...
we could end up in a lot of danger.
I could end up...
getting arrested,
right before your eyes.
And the two of us...
may end up getting separated
for a long time.
Do you still want to go?
Yes, I want to go with you, Mom.
If you're in danger, I want to
be in danger with you, Mom.
All right.
And I think that we'll be able to
get on the boat safely.
We have luck on our side, after all.
Yeah.
[Kim Yoon Bok]
Even so...
if we end up getting
separated, open this.
All right.
Oh yeah, Mom.
I love you.
You do?
I love you, too.
On the day that
Nam Hong Hee moved
she went out of her way to take
Kang Soo Jin with her.
That's not concrete evidence,
that's just an assumption!
Right now, in Chuncheon,
Mooryung, and Seoul
all of the men we have available to us
are looking for two people.
And yet, we have to ask the police
in Yisan for help again
just because of your assumption?
Um, Chief.
Please trust in me,
just one more time.
Train stations. Terminals.
And harbors, in particular.
There's a big chance that
they'll try to flee by boat.
Gosh, I can't take this.
If we slip up this time,
it'll be the end for me, too.
You know that, right?
Yes, Sir.
And yet, you want me to trust
in you just once more?
Yes, Sir.
All right, then.
Get the Chief of Police in Yisan
on the line for me.
What's going on?
Why is there a checkpoint here?
It has been revealed that
Kim Hye Na, who went missing from
Baek Island, Mooryung, Gangwon Province,
was kidnapped by a "Ms. Kang"
who was a substitute teacher
at her elementary school
which has shocked many.
Goodness, I can't believe this.
How could a teacher
kidnap her own student?
It could have been that...
the kid's mom hit the kid
a lot, or something.
She should have called the cops, then!
How could she just kidnap the child?
But, Dad.
What if the police don't listen?
Oh Gyun.
Even if that may be the case
that person is a criminal from the moment
that they break the law.
What would you do if you saw
those two on the street?
I'd definitely turn them in.
Don't you remember?
I got a thank you plaque from the police
long ago for catching a thief.
Oh yeah, my dad did that!
The investigators are currently trying to
locate Ms. Kang's whereabouts
and have made this
into an open investigation.
Um, can't you put on
some music for us?
This is boring.
Sure.
Kim Hye Na is a young girl
who turned nine years old this year.
She is 120 centimeters tall
and weighs 21 kilograms.
She has a purple birthmark
on her left underarm.
Hello?
Hey, Hong Hee.
Yes, Eun Seo?
Soo Jin said she'd come by
later to get on a boat.
But we won't be able to get her on one
right now with all the cops around.
Ugh, but I can't even get in
touch with Soo Jin right now.
She's coming all this way,
and with a kid, too.
So I'd feel really bad
if I couldn't get her on a boat.
So I had no choice but to
make a call to that person.
But that boat is pretty expensive.
I think we'll have to pay them
double in this kind of situation.
Can you take care of that bit for me?
When do I need to have it ready by?
Come to the parking lot
at Mayoung Harbor by 4:30.
All right, I will.
Team Leader.
She came out.
Follow her.
Oh!
I spilled something, Mom.
Oh no.
Are you okay?
Thank you for your hard work.
We'd like to check your
vehicle, if you don't mind.
Sure.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Yes, thank you.
She isn't using an ATM, but a teller.
I think this means she needs
to withdraw a lot of money.
Oh wow, she was nine years old.
Let's go, Oh Gyun.
Dad!
Let's hurry and go, Dad!
Okay?
Dad!
Oh Gyun and his dad...
probably saw that, right?
Thankfully, I brought my bag.
Let's part ways with them here.
Let's go.
Oh, thank you for all of your hard work.
I think someone stole my wallet
from me in the bathroom just now.
Is it possible for me to
file a report right now?
We're searching the
area for a criminal right now.
So please, go to the nearest precinct
to file your report.
But I got pick-pocketed
literally just now!
You have to check the cameras
and catch the culprit!
When will I have time
to go file a report?
It's not like there is one nearby!
I'm sorry, sir.
What?
Ma'am.
It's me, Soo Jin.
She suddenly went to the bank
after getting a call.
And now she's been driving toward
Mayoung Harbor for the past 30 minutes.
Something is definitely up.
Don't you feel it, too?
Request for backup
from Yisan Police Station.
What are you doing?
Team Leader.
Nobody knows yet that we've
followed her up to here, right?
It's true that you and I both
have suffered a lot thus far.
But if I drive slowly right now...
we can lose sight
of Nam Hong Hee's car.
And then, Kang Soo Jin...
may be able to get on a boat
tonight with Hye Na.
What are you saying right now?
You saw how Hye Na's mom reacted, too.
If we catch Kang Soo Jin today
Hye Na may have to go back
to a woman like her.
She put her life at risk to run away.
She really almost died!
So, can't we just play dumb today...
and let Kang Soo Jin go?
Everyone's been saying that it seems
like Kang Soo Jin really loves that kid.
You crazy bastard!
I told you not to think about
this at all, didn't I?
Don't say another word
and floor it.
Hey, I said floor it! Hey!
You'll see someone fishing
all the way at the end of the dock.
Put the money in their cooler.
That person will say...
"There are rockfish
and so-iuy mullets today."
There are rockfish
and so-iuy mullets today.
If they say that, that means that the
boat is ready to leave today as planned.
Let's go.
Captain! Over here!
Hurry, hurry!
Hurry!
Huh?
Oh no.
Turn the boat around!
Turn the boat around!
Captain!
Kang Soo Jin.
You're under arrest for the
kidnapping and confinement of a minor.
You have the right to remain silent.
And anything you say can be used
against you in a court of law.
You have the right to an attorney.
What are you doing, punk?
Take Hye Na and put her in another car!
Come here, Hye Na.
Yoon Bok! Yoon Bok!
- Mom!
- No!
Yoon Bok!
Oh, Soo Jin!
No! No!
No!
Yoon Bok!
Mom!
Oh, Yoon Bok!
Yoon Bok!
Mom!
No! No! No!
Please, no!
Mom!
- Mom!
- Yoon Bok!
Don't push my mom!
You're hurting my mom!
Mom!
Mom!
Mom!
Yoon Bok!
Mom!
[Call Me Mother]

I had no idea that
it would be this painful
to be forced to leave
Hye Na behind and go.
I want to request that the public be
able to participate in the trial.
There's something that I
really want to say to her.
All Hye Na's mom
did was give birth to her.
My Soo Jin is her real mom.
Are you claiming that she committed
the crime while mentally ill?
Yes, that's correct.
Let's work hard and get you
the not guilty verdict.
I could be declared
"not guilty"?
The only one Yoon Bok
can trust right now is you.
So you have to fight on.
Because you're her mom.
