[Episode 8]

You can't come here!

- Don't come here! - Mr. Bang...

- No! - Don't come here!

Mr. Bang!

Mr. Bang!

- Let go! - You guys...

must survive!

You must...

get revenge for Da Mi.

No. Mr. Bang...

Let go of me.

- Let go of me. - Don't come here.

Grandfather.

Please hurry up and go.

There's not much time left.

No, Da Mi.

I...

have to die here...

as Lee Hwi So,

so your father can move forward.

Da Mi.

I won't leave you alone ever again.

I love you, my dear granddaughter.

My dear Da Mi.

No!

Hwi So...

I trust that you can do it.

- Let's go. - Let's go!

Let's go!

Mr. Bang...

Mr. Bang...

No!

Let go of me! Mr. Bang...

Calm down, Hwi So.

- Calm down! - Mr. Bang!

Let me go!

We need to at least collect his body.

If you stop me, I'll never forgive you.

This is what he wants.

He wants us to lose our minds and make a mistake.

Mr. Bang's sacrifice,

our efforts for the past five years...

Do you want to blow that all up?

I won't allow that.

Hurry up!

Hold on!

There was a b*mb in the well.

Who triggered it to explode?

- Lee Hwi So. - No way.

Lee Hwi So and Chairman Bang are on the same side.

Lee Hwi So might've k*lled Chairman Bang.

With Chairman Bang dead,

all of that money becomes his.

Find Lee Hwi So.

We have to find him. I'm sure he's around here somewhere.

Answer the phone.

Hurry up and answer.

It's me.

Hurry up and run away. They're looking for Matthew.

If you want to go,

you're going to have to go through me.

Let's go.

Kang Ki Tak?

Hey!

Hey!

Darn it!

We lost Lee Hwi So right in front of our eyes.

But I now know who's helping him.

Who is it?

Kang Ki Tak.

Kang Ki Tak?

The police is coming. We have to go.

If we get caught now, it'll complicate things.

Everyone, go back to the cars.

- Run. - Run!

How pathetic.

Did he live for five more years just to die like that?

What a way to die.

That's a sad life.

Enough!

Mr. Bang...

Why do you think he went there?

Who set up a b*mb?

He knew Mr. Bang would go there,

so he set up a b*mb in the well.

No.

He's the one who led him there.

He wanted to k*ll him.

How would he do that?

He has no means of contacting him.

Min Do Hyuk.

What if Min Do Hyuk is a double agent?

No way.

I'm sure of it.

Rather,

Do Hyuk might be in trouble.

Tell me!

What do you want me to tell you?

- Tell me! - What do you want me to say?

Who are you?

What are you doing?

You don't know?

Lee Hwi So knew our plan.

He used Mr. Hwang and the prison guard to distract us,

and in the meantime, he moved Chairman Bang.

All of this was part of a detailed plan.

I'm positive there's a traitor among us.

We only use burner phones,

so there's no way our plan could get leaked.

Why were you late?

I told you! I had something to do!

You had something to do?

Do you expect us to believe that nonsense?

You were the one who planned Chairman Bang's escape.

You were the one who suggested...

we get Bang Chil Sung out of prison, you punk.

But the person who made the plan was late to make a few bucks?

I do anything for money.

Who would refuse when they were offering so much money?

Are you crazy about money?

I don't think you're one to talk.

I heard you went into his room alone.

Weren't you after his money?

That's not true.

I went in to find out where Lee Hwi So was.

It's true. When I went into the room,

there was someone hiding in his closet.

He had a helper.

You punk.

When we got to Gagok District,

Chairman Bang was all alone. His helper wasn't there.

There was a reason why his helper had to leave.

It's because you, Min Do Hyuk,

had to meet us.

What is this? He got a text. His phone.

We need to find his phone.

- Why are you looking for my phone? - Be quiet, you punk!

Here's his phone.

Be careful?

This...

Lee Hwi So sent this to you. Right?

Why you...

- Don't touch it! - Tell us.

Stay still.

How long have you been in contact with Lee Hwi So?

No.

Maybe it's not Lee Hwi So,

but Kang Ki Tak.

Right?

Kang Ki Tak?

Isn't he the former CEO of Taebaek Entertainment?

Is he helping Lee Hwi So too?

I've heard about him.

He was the boss of Joongang g*ng,

and he went to prison for going after Cherry Entertainment.

This punk worked under Kang Ki Tak.

Then he's definitely a spy.

But...

what's Kang Ki Tak's relationship with Chairman Bang?

Kang Ki Tak used to do some dirty work for Chairman Bang.

That old man had a lot of dirty secrets,

so he needed a gangster to clean up after him.

You punk...

- Here. Check. - Don't touch it!

- Don't touch it! - Stay still!

- Don't touch it! - Hey!

- Why don't you want us to check? - Give it to me.

If you're not a traitor, you can prove it to us.

Don't worry.

Stay still. We need to check.

There's nothing on his phone to link us to him.

I already expected something like this...

to happen.

[Do you want to change it?]

Is there something in there? Did Lee Hwi So send it?

Be careful.

Your...

hair is in danger.

If you're worried about losing your hair. Give us a call.

Hair loss.

Is that it? Anything else?

Nothing.

Let go.

I said let go of me!

It's rude to point a golf club at someone's neck.

Stop being so suspicious! Please!

Lee Hwi So's wife was the m*rder*r who k*lled my mom and brother.

You think I joined him?

It's better to be safe than sorry!

Is that so? Then let's put everything out in the open.

That the person who had me attack Cherry Entertainment...

was you, not Kang Ki Tak.

Yang Jin Mo.

Why are you bringing that up now, you punk?

That has nothing to do with this.

That's true.

Finding Lee Hwi So is more important.

More than that,

I'm curious to find out who set up that b*mb.

The fact that they openly went after Lee Hwi So and Chairman Bang...

means they're not your average person.

Sungchan?

That's right. I'm positive now.

The person who knows Lee Hwi So and Kang Ki Tak's plan...

The person powerful enough to k*ll Chairman Bang...

The person wealthy enough to own land in Gagok District...

It can only be him. Sungchan Group's Sim Jun Seok.

My hunch was right.

The person who set up the b*mb and k*lled Da Mi...

was Sim Jun Seok.

Find Kang Ki Tak.

Once we find him, it'll be easy to find Lee Hwi So.

You never know.

Kang Ki Tak might remember his old feelings for Geum La Hui...

and betray Lee Hwi So.

That's nonsense.

Why are you getting so mad?

There's not a single person who doesn't know Kang Ki Tak...

was once in love with Geum La Hui.

Why? Are you reminded of the past?

There's no reason for me to answer you.

Gosh, those punks.

Do you want to grab a drink with me?

You must have high standards.

How dare you hit on her?

Why would she drink with you?

Move. Yes?

I got a taxi, so I'll get going first.

- Taxi! - Wait, no...

I'll go with you.

I'd rather drink with a zombie.

Sir, please hurry.

I wanted to grab a drink with Myoung Ji.

Why is she interfering?

That murderous lady!

Where are you?

I just got home.

I see.

I'm sorry about before.

I've been on edge these days.

Do you want to grab some whiskey with me?

I'm tired. I'm going to go to bed now.

Really?

Let's drink another time then.

Get some rest.

Do Hyuk.

What happened?

Why did Mr. Bang suddenly go there?

He said he had to check something.

That's all he said.

Gagok District.

He invited me there.

Him? Do you mean the person...

who k*lled your granddaughter?

Who is he?

Sungchan Group's...

Sim Jun Seok.

Sim Jun Seok?

Luka.

Look up Sungchan Group's Sim Jun Seok.

He graduated from Seoul Science High School...

and graduated from Harvard University in 2015.

In 2017, he married Han So Ra, the eldest daughter of Course Group,

and they divorced in 2019.

He's currently working at Sungchan Group's US branch,

studying management and finance.

He's the sole heir to Sungchan Group,

and he's a prodigy...

who always came in first in his class.

His demeanor is unlike that of other wealthy people.

When news broke that he did a lot of volunteer work,

he gained a lot of popularity with the public.

I don't think that doing volunteer work...

is all that special.

I don't believe I'm helping those in need.

Rather, I feel like I'm fulfilling something that I lack.

Five years ago, Sim Jun Seok was married.

He was a married man whose affair with Han Mone couldn't be revealed.

Mr. Bang called him K.

K?

I've heard his name before.

He's a strong force in the underworld.

He does whatever he wants.

He's incredibly ruthless...

and an eccentric sociopath.

I can't believe K is Sim Jun Seok.

Mr. Bang said he knew Sim Jun Seok's true colors.

On the outside, he's a smart and respectable young man,

but underneath...

lives an incredibly scary monster.

To the point where Mr. Bang was afraid of him.

That's why Mr. Bang...

waited until I had power.

The power to go up against him.

There's news regarding Bang Da Mi.

The culprit behind the Bobble Case,

Lee Hwi So, her adoptive father, died today.

The police stated that Lee Hwi So,

who was receiving treatment at a nearby hospital,

escaped with flammable material...

and died by suicide using a b*mb.

- Lies. - At the scene of the suicide,

they found...

skeletal remains alongside Lee Hwi So's body.

Currently, the police...

- will investigate the escape... - Skeletal remains?

- and have also sent the remains... - No way.

to the National Forensic Service for analysis.

The Seoul Police Agency in charge of this case...

has revealed that they will consider the possibility...

that the remains belong to Bang Da Mi...

who went missing five years ago and has requested a DNA test.

Bang went missing at Seoul Culture Forest.

It's Bang Da Mi.

She's been buried in that well all this time.

How did Chairman Bang know where Da Mi was?

He must've had a hunch.

Maybe he knew who the culprit was.

To reveal the truth,

they must find out who the remains belong to.

I'm sure you know who it is too.

The person who k*lled Da Mi.

I don't know.

Don't lie. The culprit...

They will be conducting an urgent DNA test.

It's Mone's boyfriend. Right?

What makes you say that?

I know Geum La Hui.

When it comes to calculating a person's worth,

you're more exact than ChatGPT.

But you still signed a contract with Mone...

despite knowing she gave birth.

That must mean that Mone's boyfriend...

has immense power. Don't you think?

Who's your boyfriend?

Tell me.

There's no need for you to hide it from me.

No.

Who k*lled your daughter?

Don't tell her.

Sungchan Group's...

Sim Jun Seok.

What?

So that's why he went there.

To find his granddaughter's remains.

He regretted it so much.

That he was the one who told Da Mi...

to go to the Digital Crime Support Center.

That's where Da Mi met Sim Jun Seok.

This...

is the wallet Da Mi lost at the support center.

[Bang Da Mi]

From the beginning,

it was K's plan to get Da Mi to come to the support center...

so that he could k*ll her.

Because Da Mi knew that Han Mone had a baby.

Are you saying he k*lled her to protect Han Mone?

It was to protect himself.

If it comes out that Han Mone had his child,

the truth that Sim Jun Seok is K will come out.

All of this...

couldn't have been done by Sim Jun Seok alone.

I'm positive...

that Sungchan Group protected him.

That's possible. Especially since it's Sungchan Group.

I made TIKITAKA to find out...

what happened to Da Mi.

Then,

I went through all the messages of the people involved...

and recreated the incident from five years ago...

one piece at a time.

Finally, The whole puzzle has come together.

The culprit...

was Sim Jun Seok,

K.

K wrapped up Mone's lie.

Unfortunately,

everything went as K wished.

Dad.

Don't do this, Dad.

- Dad! - Bang!

Dad.

People will watch this deepfake video...

and believe that Lee Hwi So k*lled his daughter.

I'm going to send you an address.

Whether you go there...

and get help is up to you.

Grandpa.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you, Grandpa.

[Sungchan Group will support prevent digital crimes.]

What kind of place...

is this?

Since it's sponsored by Sungchan Group,

- we can trust it. - At that point, neither Mr. Bang...

nor Da Mi had any idea about the dark secret of that place.

Relax. This is a safe place.

Could you bring us some hot tea?

Yes, Director.

We've heard about you, Da Mi.

It's all a lie.

Help me.

Sim Jun Seok...

must have followed Da Mi from the support center.

We've arrived at Seoul's Culture Forest.

I can go on my own from here.

Dad said he would come.

Thank you so much for the ride.

Okay. I'll head over.

Play the pre-recorded live stream of Bobble that I made exactly at 7.

Because this deepfake technology has never been seen before,

everyone will be fooled.

Han Mone.

Da Mi.

Are you ready to reveal the truth?

Once I become a star, I'll repay you for everything.

So please don't do the live stream.

You're saying you don't want to lose anything.

You're out of chances now.

Stop right there.

[Bobble Finally Tells All About Her Forbidden Love!]

Hello?

I...

think I k*lled Da Mi.

Han Mone!

After that,

I found out Da Mi met Han Mone and Yang Jin Mo...

from the messages they had sent to each other.

I found her.

And Geum La Hui...

met Da Mi as well.

Mom!

Mom!

What happened? Who did this to you?

Please save me, Mom!

Be quiet.

Get away from my daughter.

Sorry.

Bang Da Mi.

Listen to me carefully.

This is your last chance.

Cancel the live stream right away.

You know I can't do that.

Everyone needs to know...

how I have been framed!

Answer me! Say you'll cancel it!

You have no other choice.

If you don't,

our relationship is over.

Mom.

You weren't such a bad person.

Mom.

Mom. I'm sorry for being rude to you earlier.

I must've been out of my mind. I won't do it again.

I'm sorry.

Please.

Please be my mom just this once.

Please?

I won't ask for anything ever again.

Please, Mom.

Please, Mom.

What do you want me to do?

Let's make a decision already.

Please, Mom!

Please, Mom! Please!

Take her.

Make sure she can't talk,

no matter what you have to do.

Mom.

Gosh.

Where is that punk, Hong Man Doo?

Gosh.

But soon after,

someone took Da Mi...

from Joo Yong Ju.

Hey.

That person...

was K,

Sim Jun Seok.

And one day,

I remembered something I should've forgotten forever.

Da Mi.

The moment...

Da Mi died in front of me.

Dad.

Da Mi.

Da Mi.

Dad.

Da Mi.

Da Mi.

Save me.

- Please save me. - Dad.

If you don't save me,

the hunter will...

sh**t me.

Da Mi.

Da Mi.

Da Mi.

Da Mi.

It wasn't you, right?

You didn't do it, right?

Da Mi. No!

Da Mi!

Don't.

Da Mi died...

thinking her own dad betrayed her.

No!

Da Mi.

No.

No. Da Mi!

[Enjoy Seoul's Culture Forest]

That's the reason...

I can never forgive K.

Even now, I sometimes hear his laugh.

It drives me crazy.

Do Hyuk. I know...

better than anyone how you feel.

I'm very sorry.

Your family was sacrificed.

There was a time when I resented you.

But the real villain is someone else,

and he lives a double life as a good person.

I can't accept that.

[Welcome, Lee Hwi So]

[Welcome, Lee Hwi So]

He's warning me.

He knows who I am.

He wants me to come after him.

You mean your cover's blown already?

We'll play tag if that's what he wants.

I'm pregnant with his baby.

What?

Don't you know what a player he is?

You run errands for his family for cheap.

I'd rather date a player than a thug.

I don't care how you treat me.

But...

don't ruin yourself.

Who do you think did this to me?

Stop caring about me.

This is the last time we will meet.

La Hui.

La Hui!

La Hui.

Take my umbrella.

You hate being in the rain.

I must relay some unfortunate news.

The skeleton found at Lee Hwi So's suicide site...

was identified as Bang Da Mi,

the teenager who disappeared five years ago.

Police stated the DNA matched...

those from blood samples from the site...

of the sh**ting at Seoul Culture Forest,

which led to a speedy identification.

The National Forensic Service autopsy identified...

the cause of death as a g*nsh*t to the right chest.

Police say it's likely she died on site...

when she disappeared five years ago,

but as the culprit Lee Hwi So committed suicide,

the truth behind Bang's death is still a mystery.

I stand before you today...

with a solemn heart.

The m*rder*r Lee Hwi So who maintained his innocence...

returned to where he had hidden Bang Da Mi's corpse...

and ended his own life.

With that, he proved his guilt.

His miserable end...

shows that eventually, the truth comes out,

- and that justice prevails. - Let's put this on.

However, Bang's sad life and death...

made me think as an adult who lived in the same era,

and as prosecutor general.

I felt terrible.

[Um Ji Man "feels responsible for Bang incident"]

So that...

innocent children and teenagers don't fall victim,

I promise to crack down on sexual crimes.

I offer my condolences to Bang Da Mi.

That's all.

Thirteen percent of sexual as*ault cases...

reported to victim support centers...

are committed by family or relatives.

[You'll be remembered forever.]

Ki Tak retrieved the chairman and Da Mi's remains.

Cry as much as you wish.

Don't keep it in.

All our plans...

will go ahead as scheduled.

I'll crush everyone...

one by one, in turn.

We're ready.

[You'll be remembered forever.]

[Matthew Lee, TIKITAKA]

[Geum La Hui, TIKITAKA Studio, Yang Jin Mo, Cherry Entertainment]

[TIKITAKA MOU Signing and Inauguration]

[Business Contract]

[Business Contract]

Mr. Yang.

Thank you.

- Ms. Geum. - Thank you.

I have a question for Chairman Lee.

You and Ms. Geum were involved in a scandal.

Can we assume your relationship is more than just business partners?

I'd love to know too.

I can say one thing.

Ms. Geum and I will always be together.

Whether it's business or not.

Is that a good enough answer?

[TIKITAKA MOU Signing and Inauguration]

Can you go into more detail?

Are you admitting you're dating?

Well...

[TIKITAKA signs deal with Cherry]

[Geum and Lee's rosy romance]

[How high can TIKITAKA go?]

[TIKITAKA signs with Cherry and LH]

[TIKITAKA aims globally with Cherry and LH]

[How high can TIKITAKA go?]

[TIKITAKA signs top star Han Mone]

I haven't been back in years.

The smell of Korea.

Where's your sister?

As if that brat would pick us up.

I'm so moved to death...

that she even sent us plane tickets.

Call your sister.

I can't be bothered.

Hurry up.

Her voice puts me in a funk in ten seconds.

I'm dead busy. Why do you keep calling?

I told you not to call unless you're dying.

We just reached the airport with the tickets you sent.

What do you mean?

When did I send you the tickets?

Don't be stupid.

You said you got us a place and told us to fly back.

Would I say that?

If you haven't boarded yet, go back to where you were.

We're in Korea already. Are you sick in the head?

Are you out of your mind?

How dare you come back here?

Go back right now.

No.

Stay right where you are.

I'll come over. Don't move an inch.

Okay. We'll move a few inches.

Han Kyung Soo. Hey, you!

What did she say?

She said the crap she always does.

[Mone]

Why did you do that?

Don't take the brat's calls.

We can't go back when we just got here.

Han Cheong Soo.

Take Mom to our new place.

- I have stuff to do. - I want to...

Forget the darn internet cafe.

Go.

Darn it.

When it's your birthday, Mom...

Mom.

- Ms. Geum? - Oh, yes.

Excuse me.

[Do Hyuk]

Mone's family landed.

Mission complete.

"Twenty-five percent of unlisted stock."

"A three million dollar bonus when the target is met."

It's a massive offer.

Are you satisfied?

This is a stock transfer contract.

I'll buy 40 percent of Cherry for 30 million dollars.

- Thirty... - I'll pay as soon as...

the board clears it.

It's a better price than your initial offer.

Cherry is now a TIKITAKA subsidiary.

You deserve a good payout.

I expect a lot from you both.

I'd like to host a small party to celebrate.

- What do you say? - A party?

Sounds great.

I'll invite...

people whom you know very well.

Oh. Who could that be?

Including you two,

the seven Jeju survivors.

It's a miracle those seven cheated death.

Wouldn't it be a meaningful party?

[Geum La Hui, TIKITAKA Studio CEO]

This is incredible.

Geum La Hui, CEO of TIKITAKA Studio.

How fancy.

It's more than I expected.

It was worth the hard work.

It's not the time to celebrate.

You and I must work like mad to be recognized.

Don't be so uptight.

Let's celebrate for once. He'll throw us a party too.

And don't forget to invest heavily in Cherry.

Did you look up Kang Ki Tak?

If he's really involved, he'll come to me.

That man never actually left my side.

Now,

we're actually one big family.

Shall we be honest?

Where is he?

That guy.

What guy?

K.

K?

You know him?

Did Mone tell you about him?

Would I have taken her in without a plan?

K is the greatest backer we could ever want.

However much money Lee Hwi So had,

he's nothing compared to Sungchan Group's heir.

Is K in the country?

I want to meet him.

We must bring him to our side.

Geum La Hui.

I'm warning you.

Don't go around saying that name.

Or we might all end up dead.

What do you mean?

Ms. Geum.

I have bad news.

What is it?

My family's back.

They're at the airport.

Someone flew them in.

[Mone Fashion Show]

[TIKITAKA with Mone]

[TIKITAKA with Mone]

[Song Ji A]

Song Ji A.

You decided to come back and work for me?

As if.

I called to tell you I have something.

Your weakness.

How exciting.

You can't afford to be so calm.

Your stupid threats can't harm me.

Sim Jun Seok.

What?

I saw with my own eyes.

You drove off with him in a convertible.

No way.

What are you on about?

Shall I...

tell the world your lover is Sungchan Group heir Sim Jun Seok?

Or should I go to Chairman Sim first?

Watch it, Song Ji A.

Go after them and you'll end up dead.

I won't feel as bad if you go down with me.

Ji A.

Don't be so stupid.

What?

How will you silence me this time?

You used Mone's fans and her teacher.

What else is there left?

Think rationally.

Do you want to debut?

Fine. I'll make you a singer.

I'll offer all the support you want.

I swear, on my name.

On your name?

How can I trust you?

Trust me.

I guarantee your future.

I won't go back on my word.

You should...

wait at home.

I have a meeting now. I'll come over when it's done.

Let's talk in person.

That should work for now.

She knows about K.

I bet she's the one who flew in my family.

No one else would do that.

That's why you must...

stop getting on her nerves.

It got this far,

and we must keep her close.

I'm in no mood for a party.

I won't go.

Matthew invited us.

What excuse do you have?

Get ready.

I'll handle Ji A somehow.

[Sungchan]

I won't fall for your lie again.

The chairman's here.

Wait! I just need a minute!

Sir!

Sir!

Just a moment!

Who are you?

I want to meet Chairman Sim.

He's not a man just anyone can meet.

I have something to tell him.

Tell him I know his son well.

Hello, sir.

My name is Song Ji A.

You know my son well?

Is that true, Ms. Song?

Yes.

Welcome, everyone.

Come on inside.

Thanks for having us.

It's amazing.

- What a place. - My gosh.

- It's beautiful. - Come on.

I never imagined there would be a home up here.

It's incredible.

It's on an unbelievable scale.

It was hidden for a reason.

Chairman Lee, the place suits you.

It's so high-tech.

I never have people around,

so I'm an awkward host.

Thank you all for coming.

We're honored...

to get to see your home.

I want to brag already.

This party is to congratulate and welcome...

Mr. Yang and Ms. Geum to the TIKITAKA family.

Since we're all here, how about a toast?

- Yes! - Sounds good.

- Yes. - Let's.

- Sounds great. - Let's do it.

Here.

A soju and beer mixer is the best.

A toast...

to the both of them.

- Cheers! - Cheers.

A toast to you, Matthew.

- Cheers! - Cheers!

This looks great.

Goodness.

Mr. Yang, congratulations.

My daughter is such a huge fan of yours.

Oh, did you say your daughter's name was Erica?

I heard from Ms. Geum.

Your daughter is going to star in the same drama as Mone.

Come to my office sometime.

Let's talk about signing a contract.

Oh, my. Are you serious?

Can you see me tearing up from being touched right now?

By the way, Erica goes to the same kindergarten...

as your daughter.

Her name is Han Na, right?

Oh, I think you're mistaken.

Han Na isn't my daughter.

Sadly, I'm still unmarried.

Oh, my. I see.

No wonder.

I thought you didn't seem like a married man.

I'm single too.

Because of certain issues,

I had to get divorced from my kids' dad before they were born.

I see.

It must be so tough...

to raise your kids on your own in this harsh world.

Actually, I'm also back to being single.

Me too!

Gosh, come to think of it, we're all single here.

Lady... I mean, Dr. Cha.

I'm trying to talk here.

Oh, my. I didn't realize.

You have such little presence.

Myoung Ji, fate brought us together here today.

Treat me comfortably, like a sister.

Oh, right. Have you signed up for a matchmaking service?

- What? - No...

That's the first thing you should do.

- Let me show you. - But why?

Gosh, that m*rder*r woman.

m*rder*r?

Did I say that?

It must be a habit from my job.

- I've been saying it so much. - Commissioner Nam.

Shall we have a glass of champagne?

Sure, why not?

Why? What is it?

What?

- Great work today, everyone. - Let's go.

- Good work. - Bye. Get home safe.

We'll get going first.

- Bye. - Bye.

I'm so tired.

Gosh, me too.

Paeng Hee.

It's been a while.

Did you follow me here from the bar?

Why? Did you want to slap the traitor in the face?

Would that make you feel satisfied?

I was curious.

About how you've been living.

I'm getting married soon.

I'm tired of taking care of a man...

who has feelings for another woman in his heart...

and doesn't even let me near him.

I'm going to settle down with a man who says he likes me now.

It's someone you know too.

Yang Jin Mo.

Mom.

Han Na.

It's cold. Why did you come outside?

Who are you, mister?

Well...

I'm a very close friend of your mom's.

What's your name?

No Han Na.

Han Na?

Han Na.

Can you head inside first?

I'll be right in after I talk to my friend.

- Okay. Come in soon. - Okay.

Bye, mister.

Let's meet again, Han Na.

Don't rush.

Who is that?

I had a baby.

She's Jin Mo's daughter.

Don't come to see me again.

- Gosh, it's nice to see you all. - This is so good.

- It is. - Cheers.

This is great.

Could I please have your attention?

I am infinitely grateful that TIKITAKA Studio...

has been officially launched.

We at Cherry Entertainment will also fully support the endeavor.

To commemorate this day, we will reveal...

our first project to those of you here.

In regard to my driving force,

Chairman Lee was very satisfied.

Oh, my.

What? Michelle?

Isn't she Director Michelle?

She won the Palme d'Or recently.

She's the busiest director in all of Hollywood.

I heard rumors that she was a Korean adoptee.

And apparently, her movie schedule for the next ten years is booked.

And the first one on her schedule is a project with TIKITAKA.

Oh, my.

She's the director that Chairman Lee wanted the most.

And the heroine...

is none other than Mone.

- Oh, gosh! Congratulations! - Congratulations, Mone!

- Gosh. Congratulations. - Congrats!

This is the first time I'm hearing this news too.

I'm so honored.

Thank you so much, Chairman Lee.

And Ms. Geum.

Gosh, I'm so curious to know what this movie is about.

Don't you agree, Chairman Lee?

The story is still a secret.

But I'm confident that we will not let you down.

Oh, if you need any advice from the police,

you can ask me any time.

Of course.

We are all strongly bound to each other by camaraderie.

- What was that? - Why?

- What is going on? - What is it?

Before that, I have something I need to check with you.

What is that?

Please explain this video.

But... What...

[Sungchan Group]

It's been fabricated.

It's an elaborately made deepfake video.

Isn't that right, everyone?

Fabricated?

Where did you get that video?

I just received it from an anonymous source.

Right there. The people who are murdering others with weapons.

That's you, isn't it?

Ms. Geum La Hui.

That's you, right, Ms. Geum?

When you burned that handkerchief back then,

you were trying to destroy evidence.

Mr. Yang Jin Mo.

Please say something.

Tell the truth!

What is this video?

You people were at the scene of the deserted island m*rder, right?

Well, the thing is,

it looks like us, but it's not us.

Gosh, this is so frustrating. That's...

The police will be here soon.

What?

And I am definitely going to give this video to the police.

You will have to pay the harsh price...

for lying to me.

Chairman. All of this is because of Lee Hwi So.

No! Don't say it.

Our lives were being threatened by that man.

Stop it!

Lee Hwi So?

That man committed suicide not too long ago.

Lee Hwi So is...

not dead.

I'll say it.

What do we have to hide at this point?

The seven of us are connected to the dead Bang Da Mi.

And so were the people who died on the deserted island.

We didn't do anything wrong.

That jerk, Lee Hwi So, is a crazy psychopath!

He did all sorts of bad things to his adopted daughter...

and even stole that girl's grandfather's wealth...

to throw his own child in jail! He's a crazy jerk.

That doesn't make any sense.

How is something like that possible?

It's true!

What happened that day was a m*rder show put on by Lee Hwi So.

He just toyed with all of us.

We weren't in our right minds!

Ms. Go Myoung Ji.

What on earth is the truth?

Tell me, as an educator.

Okay.

Mone is telling the truth.

I have two kids.

How could a woman like me do something so terrible?

That's right.

We all have so much to lose.

Do you think it makes any sense that people like us...

would k*ll someone we just met?

Matthew.

You have to believe us.

Chairman Lee.

If this incident comes to light,

we will all end up in a difficult position.

And TIKITAKA will face huge losses as well.

Are you threatening me right now?

No.

It's not a threat.

I mean we should look for a way for all of us to live.

If you want all of us to live,

just answer what I'm asking you.

Did you people k*ll Bang Da Mi?

There must be a reason why Lee Hwi So came up with this.

It really wasn't us.

The real culprit who k*lled Bang Da Mi was...

someone else.

So who is that real culprit?

I know.

You can't say it.

Why not?

We're all about to die here.

Do you know who it is?

Then just hurry up and say it.

Chairman Lee might help us.

Will you...

really help us?

If you hear that person's name,

you won't be able to step away from this mess either.

I will decide that after I hear who it is.

Ms. Geum.

The police have arrived at the front door.

Whether or not I open that door...

depends on your answer.

K.

It's Sim Jun Seok, Sungchan Group's heir.

What?

Don't do this.

[Sungchan]

I understand what you're saying, Ms. Song Ji A.

Come in.

Drive my guest home.

Yes, sir.

I will escort you to the car.

What happened?

I've sent the police away.

Still,

this doesn't mean I believe you.

We won't be...

arrested as soon as we leave, will we?

As you said, if this incident comes to light,

TIKITAKA will face great losses as well.

I want to take some time to think things over for now.

But I am a businessman.

Since I vouched for your characters,

you should also put something precious to each of you...

on the line to make things fair.

What...

Are you saying you want to take something as collateral?

You even want collateral?

Are you playing some kind of joke on us?

Hey,

all I have is my life.

If you want me to write a will right now, I'll do it.

Whether or not you k*ll me...

is entirely up to you.

All right.

I will put my career as a doctor on the line.

You know how great that is, don't you?

I might as well put my position as a police commissioner on the line.

I...

will put my career as a teacher on the line.

I will also...

put my life as a celebrity on the line.

Then, the two of you...

will put your positions as the CEO of TIKITAKA Studio...

and Cherry Entertainment on the line.

I really hope what you all said was the truth.

I will find Lee Hwi So.

Whether he really is a crazy psychopath like you said,

or if he's the victim,

we will soon find out.

[Matthew Lee, Yang Jin Mo]

Were you really Sim Jun Seok's lover?

Then were you pregnant with his baby?

The baby died.

It's all in the past now.

You sure are an amazing girl.

How did you seduce the son of the great Sungchan Group?

And he's a married man at that.

Well, anyway, we got over one crisis for now.

Now, Sim Jun Seok and Matthew are on our side.

We have nothing to fear because of that jerk, Lee Hwi So.

Let's all relax and get some good sleep tonight.

We still have stuff to do.

What else do we have left?

There's someone who's trying to reveal Mone's past.

We have to make her shut her mouth. Her name is Song Ji A.

Song Ji A?

Is she still causing trouble?

Isn't Song Ji A that girl?

The girl who failed to make her debut...

because of a school violence scandal?

It's just one thing after another.

We shouldn't just sit here like this.

Let's all go together.

Let's go and threaten her, pay her off, or whatever.

We should make her shut her mouth quickly.

Are you going to let a single bedbug burn down the entire building?

What are you doing? Get up already. Come on.

- Let's go. - All right. Let's go.

What's this?

- Why is the door open? - What is this?

Is Ji A even at home?

Did she already catch on and run away?

Look, her shoes are still here.

Gosh, don't fret about and just call her.

- I'll try calling her. - Okay.

I have a bad feeling.

- I hear it from over there. - What?

Did she pretend like she wasn't home?

Ji A.

Ji A?

It's me, Geum La Hui.

What is that?

[Whoever calls K recklessly will certainly die.]

"Whoever calls K recklessly..."

"will certainly die."

[Will certainly die]

What is this?

[Whoever calls K recklessly will certainly die.]

[The Escape of the Seven]

Whoever makes my father mad...

will pay the price, no matter what.

The real culprit is still out there. Why must we be the scapegoats?

I have no intention of dying at K's hands.

Do you still only value your own life?

You're Lee Hwi So's accomplice, aren't you?

She's my own daughter that I gave birth to!

Why on earth is K so deeply involved in Bobble's case?

I can't watch anything bad happen to you too!

I will stay with you until the very end.

Shall we begin...

the bloody punishment?
