Episode 15: It's Too Late to Go Back

Don't be too hard on yourself.

If I were Haeun,

I wouldn't want you to.

Just like you always remember Haeun,

he's also looking at you from
somewhere and taking care of you.

And he probably feels sorry that
he left you alone. I really mean it.

Sometimes I think...

You probably have a
harder time than I do.



I have memories of him that I
can treasure and that helps me to live.

But you don't even have them
so it must be hard for you.

Thanks for your concern.

Shinhyeok.

Why didn't you answer your phone?

I didn't hear it.

Have you been drinking?

Yes.

You've been drinking a lot these days.

Were you waiting for me?

Yes.

What for?

I missed you.
Do you have a problem with that?

Why didn't you tell me you were
in the Royal Hotel at that time?



No reason to tell you.

Why not? Ganghyeok died on the
same day you were there.

Ganghyeok went there because he
found out you were his twin brother.

I really don't understand why he
couldn't call you even there.

He was on the run.

He was a cop, a really good cop.

He could have avoided
being seen by other cops.

He probably had some reason.

What?

Like some other people other than cops?

Ganghyeok's murderer?

Could be.

If that's true,

the murderer also knew that
Ganghyeok had a twin brother.

Is that so?

In other words,

there was a reason the twins shouldn't have met.

There must be.

It's not Sangcheol who murdered Ganghyeok.

Then who is it?

The one from 20 years ago.

Ganghyeok knew that Daeshik's case
was related to the accident 20 years ago.

Then he found out that Geonha was
his father and you were his twin brother.

Maybe he also found out who killed your father.

So he ended up being killed too.

Is that how it is?

So what are you going
to do from now on?

I have to solve the riddle from 20 years ago.

I don't know which string I should pull
to undo the knot of that riddle.

You have to be careful.

What?

If you pull the wrong end of the string,
you might tighten the knot even more.

Thank you for your advice.

Dongchan is following the
woman who is with you now.

I see.

What are you so serious about?

Here we are.

What are you doing?
Aren't you getting off?

Don't look at me like that.

Drive safely.

Do you have something to tell me?

You'd better stop now.

What do you mean?

Stop doing the story you're on now.

Why are you saying that?

It can be much more dangerous than you think.

Are you worried about me?

I kind of feel happy because
you worry about me.

Quit it. I think that's better.

Thank you but you're worried for nothing.

Reporters cover suspicious things all the time.
It's nothing dangerous.

And my pride won't allow me
to give up in the middle of it.

Go on in.

Shinhyeok.

Buy me an alarm clock.

Alarm clock?

It's so hard for me to get up every
morning and my alarm clock is broken.

Don't forget my birthday
is coming soon, will you?

Is it?

What? It's me you were thinking
of marrying for a while.

Anyway, buy me an alarm clock so that
I can think of you whenever I wake up.

All right?

Okay.

If Gangju is seeing Shinhyeok, doesn't it
mean he knows about Ganghyeok?

That's mere guesswork.

None of them have mentioned Ganghyeok
so they probably know nothing.

That doesn't make sense.

Shinhyeok must have seen
Ganghyeok's photo through Gangju.

Let's wait and see a little bit more.

What's wrong with you?

You should stop Gangju from what she's doing.
You can't just sit back and watch.

It's not as simple as you think.
No good excuse will make her quit.

What excuse do you need more than now?

Don't you think Shinhyeok met
Ganghyeok before he died?

Shinhyeok was in Gangreung and
Ganghyeok went there to see him.

But Dongchan assured me that never happened.

There could be something we don't know.

If Shinhyeok is really pretending not
to know anything, as you said,

there's a good chance he met Ganghyeok.

Mr. Yu Shinhyeok is here to see you.

You don't know where he went?

No. He just told me he had an appointment.

I see.

If there's anything urgent, I'll call him for you.

Nothing urgent.
I just wanted to have lunch with him.

I see.

Mr. Ahn, I have something to ask you.

Hello.

Mr. Jeong, you're here too.

I just dropped by.

What's up?
You didn't even call in advance.

I have something urgent
to discuss with you.

I'd better go then.

You don't have to.
I was going to call you anyway.

What do you mean?

I think he changed a lot since
he went on holiday last time.

He seems to be having a hard time.

That's why I'm asking if something
happened while he was in Gangreung.

Don't get too serious.

I'm asking you as I'm
worrying about him as a father.

You think something happened, right?

No, I don't.

You don't have to hide anything from me.

There's nothing to hide.
He just said he wanted to have a rest.

Did he?

Yes, sir.

I see.

Tell us what you want to say.

My twin brother who I thought
died 20 years ago was alive.

What do you mean?
Ganghyeok was alive?

I found out recently.

How did you find out?

Gangju told me.

Then it's something you
should celebrate, isn't it?

Yes, if he were still alive.

What do you mean?

He was murdered.

He was set up as a crooked
cop and murdered cruelly.

Haeun never met Shinhyeok.

Shinhyeok was in a meeting at that time
and my people were watching him.

I haven't told either of my
parents about Ganghyeok yet.

I want to tell them when he's proven innocent.

I understand that, but it's not easy to
clear someone of a false charge.

You can't just keep it a secret forever.

I think he's right.

Even police find it difficult to solve such things.

And it's even harder for you or
Gangju to prove his innocence.

I know.

That's why I came here to see you, Taejun.

I need your help.

My help?

You know some people in the police
world so ask them to reinvestigate

Ganghyeok's case.

I'll find out what exactly what happened to him first.

Thanks.

And please persuade Gangju
to back off the story.

Seeing the frame up and murder of
Ganghyeok the one who did all this is

very cruel and will stop at nothing
to accomplish his purpose.

If Gangju doesn't stop, I'm afraid
that she will be in danger.

I see. I'll talk to her about that.

And I really want you to
keep this a secret for a while.

I will.

Thank you.

Which camera man can I go with?

We don't have much time left.

Okay. Then see you on location. Hurry.

Bye.

Lee Gangju speaking.

Here.

Daeshik and Mancheol were previously
convicted at similar times.

When was that?

It was for assault and battery
and manslaughter 20 years ago.

Records with more details will
be in the prosecutor's office.

I see.

If you want the details, that's the place to look.

Thank you. I'm on the way to a story.
I'll call you later.

Okay.

You stay in my room and wait there.

What?

Don't ask me why.

After I leave, stay here and
act like you're with me.

I'll confirm the appointment with
Assemblyman Mun at 12 o'clock.

Please cancel it.

Yes?

I have to sort out some woman problem.

What time is the meeting?

It's at 4 o'clock.

I see.

Was everything okay?

The chairman came to see you.

Did he?

He came to have lunch with you.

I worried for nothing then.

I thought Haeun might have met Shinhyeok.

Then what are you going to do about Gangju?

I'll take care of that.

Stop following her for now.

I said I'll take care of her.
No buts about it.

Taejun is just like any father.
He's like putty in the hands of his daughter.

Just as my luck runs out,
here is a new opportunity.

How is Sucheol these days?

He hasn't gone to work yet.

He's probably lying in some
hospital regretting what he did.

If he starts working, bring him over here.

It's time to play good cop.

Find out the details about the chief of
the reconstruction committee.

If anyone in our company has any
connections with them, contact them.

Okay.

And find out what kind of business is going
on between Dongchan and my father.

Don't use company men,
only outsiders to check that out.

Yes, sir.

At the moment about 10 companies are
competing for the reconstruction project.

J&C will move on it faster than others.

Then we'll have to sit on it faster than others.

What?

That was a joke but it didn't work, did it?

Not really.

Everything depends on the model house.

The model house will be the key
to getting a project order or not.

The number of votes we get depends on how much the
housing union members will like our model house.

As the design team said,

the number of households and the size of
the apartment has already been decided

so feel free to talk about anything.

The area will have subway access and
it has greenery, so the area isn't bad.

But many research centers and factories are there too.

The environment and condition of the area are important,

but it is also important to listen to
what the union members want exactly.

There is no precedent for
contacting union members directly.

You just do it if it's a good idea.

Can you talk to the marketing
team about this idea?

Okay.

Good job everyone.
I'll treat you tonight.

I still have something to
do with the design team.

I see.

The singles at our company
are crazy about you, Mr. Yu.

Don't beat around the bush.
It's you who's interested in him.

Sure, but I'm interested in Mr. Ahn too.

And Mr. Ahn's face turns red.

Elders first.

One good turn deserves another.

That's nothing to do with me.

I've cooked for you.
You should be grateful to me.

That's against all reason.

A stitch in time saves nine!

What do you mean?

Your obsession with food
will cause stomach cancer.

It's hard to tell who's better.

All I want is peace.

Are you going back to the office?

No. I'm going somewhere else.

Don't work too late and go home early.

You need energy to work better tomorrow.

Haeun!

What are you doing?

I told you not to use violence.

Hello.

I didn't expect to see you here.

Do I know you?

This creep sexually harassed my daughter.

Who are you saying I did that?

Don't you remember me?
We met at the police station.

I think you mistook me for someone else.

Aren't you the cop Haeun?

Excuse me.

Your sister is here too!

I'm so sorry for what I did to you before.
Please forgive me.

Don't be.

And he's not my brother.

What?

Really?

He looks so much like him.

Do you know him?

Yes.

Sorry I made a mistake because
you look so much like him.

Bye.

I'd better go.

See you tomorrow.

Bye.

Take care.

Shall we go for a coffee somewhere?

Let's go.

He really looks like your brother, doesn't he?

Yes.

Was your brother a cop?

Yes.

Let's go.

Don't move.

How come you're so reckless?

Don't you remember the buddy principle?

I decide Dongchan's life, not you.

Haeun.

Haeun's dead.

What you're looking at now
is not you friend Haeun.

Let me ask you one thing.

At what point did you get involved?

You weren't involved in Gido's case, were you?

No, I wasn't.

Sucheol.

We've come too far to go back
to how we were in the past.

But I know this much, you are not a bad person.

You're a good guy.

I understand that you had no choice
with your mother's safety in mind.

I understand....I mean it.

What are you doing?
I knocked several times.

Did you?

No one's home?

Yes. Everyone seems to be late.

What were you looking at?

Nothing. Have you eaten dinner?

I know you don't like me doing this
but I suddenly missed your father.

Why would you think I don't like that?

Isn't it just natural for you to think of Dad?

When are you going to stop doing that?

What do you mean?

Dad died. You have
Incheol with you now.

I'll go and pick up Shinyeong.

Have a rest. You must be tired.

I'm okay. It's too dangerous for girls to
walk on the streets at night time.

Do you know how many crimes of
violence against women happen everyday?

I saw it in the newspaper but I can't remember.

I'll be back soon.

Wait.

Drink this before you go.

Thanks to you, I'm going to be a healthy man.

Mom!

Shinyeong's already here.

I don't want to study anymore.

I was about to pick you up.

You should've come earlier.

It's still too early for class to be out.

I was tired so I played hooky.

What's the matter with you?

Arm, leg, head, hip, shoulder, knee, feet, finger...
there's nothing that does not hurt.

Really? Then you can't play games with me, can you?

Game, what kind of game.

I was going to test the new laptop I bought for you.

Really?

Where is it? Is it in my room?

On your desk.

Come on. Let's play games.

Lion Funds got the natural gas
concession in Shenyang, China.

Did they?

But this project isn't an easy
one as it's all in strict secrecy.

I understand.

I remember somebody failed to
lay the pipelines secretly

from Russia through China.
It's that difficult.

I know of that case.

That's why we're very cautious and
need a partner that we can trust.

I'm not conversant with Korean affairs.

So can you introduce a proper
partner company for us?

Partner company?

Yes. So that we can do a joint
venture and each own 50-50.

Pipelines will come through
North Korea from China.

Then that will help to improve
relations with North Korea.

It will also contribute to a stable
demand and supply of resource.

And it will help you to pass that
environment bill you're pushing.

I guess Resource Development Affairs
will be suited for that project,

as their main area is
foreign resource development.

If this project goes well,

Lion Funds will donate to you 1% of total
costs as a campaign contribution.

I'm not here trying to get
some kind of commission.

And I haven't decided anything yet.

It's not going to be a one-time commission.

The project is long-term business.
It'll last 10 years.

Stable politics in Korea is a crucial element
for the success of this project.

Lion Funds has never
failed in an investment.

That's why we want to invest in your future.

We're confident of success
in what you're seeking.

I'll call you quite soon.

I'll be waiting.

I have no idea what
I was talking about.

Are you Yoon Mijeong?

Have a seat, please.

I don't think I've met you
before Mr. Kim Nuwin.

I'm just an agent for Mr. Kim.

I see.

Yes.

I don't know why he sent me a present
and wanted to meet me through you.

I know nothing about you.

He's very interested in Star Hotel.

Mijeong was much greedier than I expected.

That will make everything easier.

When your desire is too big, it invites ruin.

Just like the name?

'Nuwin' rhymes with 'ruin.'

I'm just working for you
but I feel sorry for you.

For what?

Not only desire but also
vengeful thoughts invite ruin.

How are you going with
breaking into Dongchan's office?

I made a copy of the key
but it's not easy at all,

because of the security system and
there's also a lot of guards.

I'll take care of that problem.

Do you think you'll be okay with it?

Heesu seems to be a good man.

What do you mean?

He's too good to get involved
in some cruel revenge plot.

Do you remember you ran around here
and there to lodge a petition

for a complete stranger, and bought
a ticket for a poor foreign worker?

That person is no longer here.

If this weighs on your mind,
you can stop now.

Daeshik and Mancheol's cases are more

than 10 years old, so their records
have been destroyed.

I see.

I think the best way is to talk to the cop
who was in charge of their cases.

Can you find him for me?

He runs a Korean BBQ restaurant in Seoul.

Hi, Dad.

What brought you here?

Order something to drink first.

I'm okay. I've been
drinking tea all day.

Do you have something to tell me?

Shinhyeok came to see me.

He told me about Ganghyeok's
case and that you're reporting on it.

He told you about that?

Yes.

And he told me not to let his
family know about Ganghyeok yet.

So why did he go and tell you all that?

He wants me to work on
reinvestigating Ganghyeok's case.

I didn't know that he would ask that of you.

I'll find a way to help
Shinhyeok so you'd better quit.

What are you talking about?

He's very worried about you.

He said you'd be in danger so he asked me
to stop you from what you're doing.

Come on. What's so darn dangerous?

Even if it's not, you'd better quit.

Why?

Your own personal feelings are
getting in the way of your work.

Then you'll lose objectivity
while you're reporting.

I know that won't happen to me.

That you can't stop it means
you have a personal feeling.

Even so, I don't want to stop.

Even if I wanted to, I couldn't stop now.

My director already knows that
I'm working on a feature story.

And Ganghyeok's case could be
a much bigger case than we think.

What do you mean?

I don't have any evidence but
it isn't just a simple murder case.

I think you and Shinhyeok
worry too much.

It's my job to disclose the truth.
Moreover, it's about Ganghyeok.

So it's natural for me to work
even harder, don't you think so?

Young people prefer
emotive designs.

For mid and small size apartments,

a simple and cheerful mood with a
cubic effect will work best.

What about the color?

Bright and cheerful colors suit small spaces.

A stylish and modern image will be
better for the big-size apartments.

And the colors shouldn't be heavy but mellow.

And let's make some displays
using flashy decorations.

Of course.

You two are in cahoots.

Eunha is like Brainy Smurf.

Then am I Gargamel?

I'll be Papa Smurf.

Excuse me.

Hello.

I'm in the middle of a meeting.

Then come when the meeting ends.
I'll be waiting in your office.

Okay.

As mentioned before,
this part will have mellow colors,

so this part would be bright and
colorful. What do you think?

I was surprised that you
went to see my father.

Did you come here because of that?

Did you ask my father to stop
me from covering the case?

Yes.

Do you really worry about me
so much to make you do that?

I don't feel right about what you're doing.

Why?

Because Yu Shinhyeok cared for you.

That means you don't anymore.

Let me ask you something.

Do you still feel most comfortable
when you are with me?

Well...

Is that an answer?

If the old Yu Shinhyeok was here,
it would probably be the same.

Does that mean that you're
not like you were before?

Yes. I'm not the old Yu Shinhyeok.

I'm actually in shock.

Anyway, I'll keep covering the case.

Thank you for caring about me,
but don't ask my father such things.

I came to say that.

Give up before it's too late.
Otherwise you can't even stop it.

Don't worry about that because
I don't want to give up.

If you really think that way,
there is nothing that I can do.

Can I meet you early tomorrow evening?

I want to buy my present with you.
Is it okay with you?

Sangcheol?

Yes, he called the chief and
said he didn't know Haeun at all.

And?

The chief asked him to surrender
then he hung up the phone.

See! Haeun has nothing to do with Sangcheol.

Sangcheol could be lying.

No, he's not!

What the...!

Did you just yell at me? I'm your senior.
Did you forget that?

Then believe what I'm saying.

And I'm worried that I can't contact Sucheol.

You little... Do you think I'm not worried?

Gangju.

Hi.

Did you meet that old cop?

Not yet. He wanted
to meet me tomorrow.

I see.

Something flashed through
my mind just before.

Daeshik called my team here at
work on the day he was killed.

To Team 5?

Yes, twice even.

Lee Gangju speaking.

It's me.

Hi Jinwu. Long time no see.

Let's have dinner tomorrow.
It's your birthday, isn't it?

You're a lonely single. Who's going to
take care of your birthday if not me?

I have an appointment with Shinhyeok.

Shinhyeok?

Are you seeing each other again?

Whether we're dating again or not, he's close
enough to take care of my birthday.

You're right.

Let's meet all together then.

Okay.

How are you going with Eunha?

It's not easy to get close
to her like I told you, right?

No, it isn't.

But I'm happy that I'm one
step closer to her anyway.

No matter how long it takes,
I want to keep getting closer to her.

I've never seen you this
serious about a relationship.

Anyway, see you tomorrow.

Bye.

Hi Gangju.

Are you free tomorrow evening?

Tomorrow?

It's my birthday so I want
to invite you for dinner.

Hi.

Is it a dinner that I can join?

Of course. Will you come?

Yes, I will. See you tomorrow.

Bye.

Who was that?

Lee Gangju.

You two must've become really close.

Yes.

Hello.

Hi.

Hi. I don't hear much from you
these days. Sucheol either.

You haven't heard from Sucheol at all?

That's what I'm asking you.
Where has he gone?

Nothing from him since he called me last time
and he doesn't answer his cell phone either.

Did you try his house phone?

It's the same.

Come to his house with me.
He might've been sick. Who knows?

That's a good idea.
He never did this before.

Sucheol? Where on
earth are you now?

I don't think I can go to
work for about a week.

What happened to you?

Don't ask me why but send the
boss my message. I'll call you later.

Sucheol!

You haven't eaten anything yet.

I don't want to eat.

I don't know what's behind this,
but stop feeling guilty about Shinhyeok.

I think he already forgave you.

He told me you like abalone soup.

He bought this for you
to recover quickly.

Eunha.

Can I talk to you for a minute?

Is it true that your brother looked
a lot like our vice president?

Why do you ask?

Just curious.

Yes, he does.

Do you have a photo of him so that I
can see how much they look alike?

Sure I have a photo but I
don't want to show it to you.

I don't know why you're curious,
but you're his secretary.

If you're curious about something,
you should ask him directly.

This is pretty, isn't it?

This is so cute.

Pay for it.

How much is it?

Forty dollars.

What is it?
It looks handmade, doesn't it?

It's nothing.

It looks like a bracelet.
Why are you carrying it in your wallet?

Because it's annoying.

Even though I forced you to buy
this for me, I'm still happy. Thank you.

Jinwu's already here.

Jinwu remembered my birthday and
called me. He's much better than you.

Have you been waiting long?

No. How are you, Shinhyeok?

Good, thanks.

Why isn't she here yet?
Maybe she can't find the place.

Who else is coming?

Someone you'll be happy to see.

Who?

Eunha.

Really?

I invited her as a
surprise for you.

Jinwu has a crush on her.

He already knows it.

How do you know Eunha?

It's a secret.

Here she comes.

You don't feel comfortable with her?

Did I make a mistake?

No.

Was it difficult to find?

No, it wasn't.

Hello.

Have a seat.

Thanks.

You're his secretary.

If you're curious about something,
you should ask him directly.

So, who's going to buy dinner tonight?

I'm the birthday girl and Eunha is a
special guest, so you two decide.

I'll buy.

Okay. Then you can buy drinks later.

Shinhyeok!

Long time no see.

I was going to call you anyway.
I'm glad I ran into you here.

Yes, right.

I shouldn't interrupt you and your friends.

Okay, then see you...

Hi. I'm Jinwu.

Can you introduce me to your friend?
