ALL CHARACTERS, ORGANIZATIONS AND EVENTS ARE FICTITIOUS
Previously on The Penthouse: War in Life…
Don't act like you know me.
I don't want to see you ever again!
If something happens to me, please take care of Ro-na.
He'll rot in there forever.
Mr. Baek Jun-ki.
Baek Jun-ki?
Logan is alive. And Mom is well too.
I can't go down like this.
I want to go back!
This is just a piece of real estate.
Why is everyone fighting over this?
We don't want any more fights, so we should finish this place too.
I'll erase all your bad memories, Mom.
They'll experience what it's like to live in misery.
We're here for the money we loaned to Joo Dan-tae.
I am the chairman of Cheong-a Group!
Cheong-a Construction filed for bankruptcy today.
Were you aware? Ms. Cheon!
Where to, ma'am?
Hera Palace.
Take me to Hera Palace in Samseong-dong.
Eun-byeol.
My sweet Eun-byeol…
Eun-byeol.
My dear Eun-byeol!
There you are.
Gosh, I looked everywhere for you.
Ms. Cheon.
We don't have time.
It's my inauguration ceremony today.
We even got new outfits together. We'll be late. Hurry.
Let go of me, Ms. Cheon.
I'm not Eun-byeol.
Why won't you listen to me? I'll get mad at you!
You must attend the ceremony because you're my daughter.
Everything I have will be yours.
Come on. Let's go. Hurry! Come!
What is the matter with you today?
-Ms. Cheon, why are you… -Come on!
-Gosh, Eun-byeol! -I'm not Eun-byeol!
Come on. We have to hurry.
Stop it, Seo-jin.
What are you doing here? Are you here to take Eun-byeol from me?
You can't! I'll never let you take her away from me.
What are you doing? She's not your daughter!
She is! She's my daughter! You can't take her away from me!
Move!
Eun-byeol! Come to your mom.
-Run, Ro-na! Go! -No, Eun-byeol!
-Get it together, Seo-jin! -Eun-byeol!
Are you all right, Ro-na?
Are you out of your mind? Where are you taking my child?
-She is my daughter! -Ro-na, no!
-Mr. Ha. -Ro-na…
Mr. Ha! Are you okay?
Eun-byeol!
We have no time to waste. Come on. Hurry! Let's go!
Why won't you listen to me?
-Eun-byeol! -Please…
Come on!
Eun-byeol!
What's going on here?
Goodness.
What happened?
Ro-na. Dr. Ha!
Goodness. Help!
Help! I need your help here. Come quickly. I need your help.
Yes.
Yes, people are badly hurt.
The community room at Hera Palace.
I mean… Just come quickly.
I told you. I did it all by myself. I have no family.
My mom's dead, and it's been years since I cut ties with my brother.
So just send me to jail.
Seok-kyung.
Why did you call them?
They're strangers to me. I don't know these people.
I'm Seok-kyung's mom.
Mom?
You're not my mom. I'm not your daughter. We're complete strangers.
That's enough, Seok-kyung.
Why is Seok-kyung here?
Your daughter helped Joo Dan-tae, a wanted criminal, stow away to Japan.
We even confirmed that she visited Japan on the same boat.
Now, be honest.
Did you really do this alone?
You can't have had enough money to let him get on a stowaway.
I'm very rich.
My birth mother left me a fortune.
Look. They got divorced ages ago, and I'd been living with Dad all along.
Then he asked me to do a favor, so I had no choice but to help him.
Is it a crime for a daughter to help out her father?
So?
Where in Japan is he?
No idea.
We parted in Japan as soon as he got off the boat.
Will you keep lying?
I mean, if you aren't going to believe me, why do you keep asking?
If you want to do a proper investigation, make these two leave this room.
Otherwise, I won't say a word.
Is this a joke to you?
So just throw me in prison!
I helped my dad escape.
Why did you call these people
who have nothing to do with it and make me feel humiliated?
TOKYO DAIICHI MENTAL HOSPITAL
It's a mental hospital in Fukuoka.
He should be there.
Request for cooperation to Interpol and send Joo Dan-tae's information over.
Yes, sir.
I may need to ask additional questions, so please cooperate.
Sure, detective.
-Get ready to go to Japan. -Yes, sir.
-Let me go. -Where are you going to go now?
Do you think it'll all be over once you run away like a kid?
So I said I'll take responsibility.
I'll take the blame and go to prison. Why are you two trying to stop me?
How did you find out?
How did you know you'll find him at Busan Port?
I overheard Seok-hoon talking to you.
And you followed Mom?
Why did you follow him to Japan?
I wanted to witness his ruined life
with my own eyes.
The hospital was nicer than I thought.
I won't ever see him again, so isn't it good manners to see him off?
Don't worry about me.
I'm still legally Dad's daughter,
so even if I say I helped him run away, they can't punish me.
How can you get in such danger all by yourself?
Do you know how much I was worried when you went missing?
Why were you worried about a brat like me?
I took after Dad, so you know I'll always manage to survive.
Is that all you can say to Mom?
This is how I'm built, so what?
Have you eaten?
Let's go eat something.
You've become too thin.
Eat up.
You need to eat to get the energy to fight me and hate me.
Here.
I just need to eat and get lost, right?
Fine. I'll eat.
You've always been my daughter.
Both Seok-hoon and you have always been my children.
You lived a clueless life as Joo Dan-tae's daughter,
but that's not your fault.
No.
It's my fault.
Min Seol-a almost died because of me.
I'm the one who set the van on fire.
I locked her in there and ran away.
And yes, Ro-na's mom died because of me.
Someone like me doesn't deserve to live as your daughter.
I hate myself to death.
I'm not shameless enough to insist that I'm your daughter.
So? Will you run away again?
Will you keep running away without looking back on what you did?
You did this.
It's hard, but don't run away and face it. Then you'll find a way to return.
My girl. You've matured a lot while you were away.
Let's go home. I redecorated your room nicely.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, Mom.
I'm so sorry.
Mom.
I missed you so much.
I missed you to death.
MS. KANG
Yes, Ms. Kang.
Why won't your mom pick up?
There's bad news. There was an accident at Hera Palace.
What do you mean?
An accident?
-How are the vitals? -He's barely hanging on.
Let's begin the operation.
Kelly.
-Doctor, the BP is dropping -The brain pressure is too high.
I'll open up right away.
-Hey. -What happened?
Well, Dr. Ha is seriously injured.
It's because of Seo-jin.
He bled a lot from his head. He's having an emergency operation.
Why was Seo-jin at Hera Palace?
That's what I'm saying. I think she went completely crazy.
She kept saying Ro-na is Eun-byeol,
then made a scene insisting that she'll take her,
and it led to this.
-What about Ro-na? -She doesn't seem to be seriously injured.
Where is Cheon Seo-jin?
Let me go. I have to go find my mom.
Her surgery is over, so she's already in the recovery room.
The chandelier fell from the ceiling, but she got lucky and is fine.
Your mom really is something.
Her company went bankrupt, and she's in a tight spot,
so she's putting on a show again, right? As if she's out of her mind.
What?
She must be desperate, but isn't it too much for her to act
as if she thought Ro-na was you? That's something she shouldn't confuse.
Or did she actually go crazy?
What do you think you know?
Wake up, Seo-jin. I said wake up right now!
I don't know about others, but you can't fool me. Wake up!
What are you doing? My mom is sick right now.
She's doing this on purpose.
She's acting as if she's insane because she's about to lose everything.
Ms. Sim!
It's cold.
Cut this off now.
Do you think you can avoid the prosecutors' interrogation?
Acting like you're unfit won't work now.
You need to stop!
She really isn't doing well.
Can't you see how she got injured?
No one can treat my mom like this.
I'm her guardian as of this moment.
Get out of this room now!
Get this woman out of here. And make sure no one,
and I mean no one comes in here.
You must leave.
Let me go. I'm leaving on my own.
This isn't the end, Seo-jin.
I'll run to the end of this world if that's what it takes to destroy you.
-Mom. -Yes?
Are you okay?
What happened to you?
Who are you?
Mom.
Do you know me?
Where am I?
-Mom. -What is this?
What's wrong?
-Let me go. -Mom.
Mom, pull yourself together. Stop joking.
Mom, what's wrong?
Mom.
Come on, Mom.
Who are you people?
-Move aside! -Move!
Cheon Seo-jin!
Stop it!
-Stop it. -What?
What kind of scheme is this?
-Move! -Get out of here.
-No! -Give me my money!
-Mom! -Move!
-Don't do that to my mom! -Get out of here.
-Get out! -Give me my money now!
Move!
-You! -Move, all of you!
-Get out! -Get out of here!
His vitals are dropping.
Raise the epinephrine level, and bring more RBC!
Yes, doctor.
I'm so relieved you're all right.
How's Mr. Ha doing?
He's getting operated now.
He'll be okay, right?
I can't let anything happen to him.
Of course not.
The surgery will go well, and he'll wake up soon.
Don't worry.
He got hurt in my place,
while trying to save me.
What am I going to do, Ms. Sim?
If something happens to Mr. Ha, I don't think I could go on.
I can't lose both Mom and Mr. Ha.
How can I live with the guilt?
That's not going to happen.
Dr. Ha is a strong person.
He'll hold out.
She must be in confusion because of the shock from the accident.
She'll receive a thorough exam tomorrow.
What about Dad? Is he in critical condition?
His surgery is taking a while.
He had a severe injury on his head, so we'll just have to wait for the result.
It's my fault.
What happened to Dad and Mom is all my fault.
How long will you stay here?
Are you allowed to do this to the patient who got surgery today?
Why? Are you hungry?
Come here.
You can sit here and eat Chinese food with us.
What you're doing is an illegal collection!
If I report you to the police, you'll all get arrested!
Darn you. What do you think you're doing?
Don't lay a finger on the kid.
Why are you pestering them over Chairman Joo's debt?
His children are out there too!
Because Cheon Seo-jin is his wife.
So why did she stand as his joint surety?
Where's Joo Dan-tae? Where is he hiding?
Man, this little jerk.
No.
Unless Joo Dan-tae is dead,
I don't care if it's Cheon Seo-jin or her daughter.
They'll need to pay us back until they take their last breath.
Understood?
You'll never be freed from us.
So go find Joo Dan-tae now!
No!
-Get out! -Come here!
Where's Joo Dan-tae?
Where is he, you idiot?
You're a pretty girl. You might make us some money.
Where do you want to work at?
-You! -Where do you want to go?
-My ear! -Hey, stop her.
-Get out! -Crazy witch.
Hey!
Is she fine?
No!
What is wrong with you? Get out!
-Get out of here! -What?
-Get out of here! -What? Grab her!
-Hey! -Get out!
-Grab her! -Get out!
-Hey!
Get out!
Cheon Seo-jin! I'll come back for your money.
Do you get it?
It's okay, Mom.
Mom…
It's all right. Don't worry about it.
Mr. Baek Jun-ki.
It's time for your psychotherapy.
Patients of Tokyo Daiichi Mental Hospital,
it's already late at night.
We hope you spend another safe and cozy night.
Stop it!
Enough is enough, you jerk.
Darn it. Let me go!
Let me go! Let go!
Stay still.
Go find him quickly!
-Where did he go? -Hurry up!
Come here!
Stop it!
Sim Soo-ryeon, Logan Lee.
I'll make sure I put an end to your lives.
Eat up.
You have to eat even if you don't want to. You aren't allowed to lift a finger.
I'll do everything for you.
Here's water. You might get sick. Eat slowly.
I'm not a patient.
Of course you're a patient.
You rolled right off those stairs.
There's not much we can do for the shock. I'm worried about you.
-I got your medicine from the hospital. -What brings you here?
-No one here is glad to see you. -Ro-na's having a tough time.
Did you bring this medicine here trying to let everything slide?
-Does it make everything you did go away? -That's not what I said.
Both you or Ro-na won't accept my apology anyway.
I know that you won't forgive me.
Then why did you come?
Did you come to make sure she gets worse?
We don't want your apology, so just leave.
You brat.
You still need to do it.
It's my choice to accept your apology or not.
But you need to apologize until I accept it.
Apologize and ask for forgiveness.
Remember and dwell upon everything you've done to me and to my mom.
You can think about everything else after.
All done. Let's go.
Excuse me! Open the door!
-You murderer. -What's that?
How dare you show up? You're brazen!
-Joo Seok-kyung! -I don't believe that you're innocent.
You killed my mom.
MURDERER
GET LOST, MURDERER
Get rid of that rat.
Do whatever it takes to make her fail the test.
Don't you worry. I'll take care of it for you.
-Ms. Kang. -Yes.
Could you take me to the hospital?
Why?
-Do you feel ill again? -I want to go see Mr. Ha.
I'm going to stop by every day.
He hasn't woken up yet. There's no use in visiting every day.
You haven't recovered yet.
He might still be able to listen.
I want to do something that can help him wake up faster.
Yes, you're right.
-Okay. -Let's go.
Careful. Slowly.
-Je-ni, let's go. -Okay.
Okay. Be careful.
Careful.
His brain damage is more severe than we expected.
The affected area involves high risks, so we couldn't do much.
Does this mean he may never wake up?
We must…
wait and see to find out.
Seo-jin asked the police for protection after doing that to Dr. Ha.
All of the loan sharks were withdrawn from her hospital room this morning.
The one who should be punished is getting protected?
This is absurd.
Just expose the other part of the dashcam footage.
I won't make the same mistake twice.
Seo-jin will do whatever it takes to claim herself as unfit
and manage to avoid the grip of the law.
I plan on sending her away to her demise in my own hands.
This is bad.
Joo Dan-tae has run away from the hospital in Japan.
What?
I understand.
That persistent jerk.
I gave him one last chance to repent until the day he dies,
but he refused to do that too.
I'm sure Dan-tae will crawl back into Korea.
Then you'll be in danger, Soo-ryeon.
I can't help it.
If this game will only end when either Dan-tae or I die,
then I won't avoid him.
He has no money or passport,
so it won't be easy for him to return all alone.
Who'll be the first to hear from him?
-My son. -Dad, are you all right?
Where are you? I've been worried sick about you.
Soo-ryeon locked me in a mental hospital.
I barely managed to escape.
Mom did that?
That makes no sense. Are you okay? Are you not hurt?
You haven't heard anything from Mom?
I heard Logan came back alive.
Do you have any idea what those two jerks
are up to?
It has been a while since I met her.
She's getting ready to move to the US with Logan right now.
That crazy wench.
She wants to find her happiness after doing this to me?
Seok-hoon, I need your help.
I really didn't kill Ro-na's mom.
I saw with my own two eyes that Seo-jin pushed her off.
I'm falsely blamed.
If you don't want to be a murderer's kid, you have to help me.
I have to return to Korea to correct everything that went wrong.
Seok-hoon, you have to trust me.
What can I do for you?
Help me return to Korea. I must return to Hera Palace.
If I must die, I'll die there, in my castle that I built up.
You're the only one I can ask for help right now.
I have a friend in Fukuoka. I'll give him a call.
Make a move to Hakata Port right now.
I'll prepare the money and a fake passport too.
Thank you so much, Seok-hoon.
You can plan everything else after you return to Korea safely.
I'll find a ship that leaves as soon as possible.
I'll see you tomorrow at dawn at Busan Port.
Seok-hoon.
May I…
really trust you?
Trust me, Dad.
I'm your only son.
Okay. All right, then.
It's just as you expected, Soo-ryeon.
I'm sorry I had to ask you to do something like this.
I've abandoned Dad ages ago.
I don't pity him or feel guilty about him.
If I could,
I want to put an end to him myself.
You can stay here.
Leave the rest to me.
No, I'm going with you.
He'll soon find out
how it feels to be abandoned by his kid.
The security at the port became very tight after Dan-tae ran off.
Busan Port must be filled with police.
I can't let the police have him.
We need to catch him first.
We need to hurry if we want to get to Busan Port.
YEJI
Over here!
Search the area. Now!
Joo Dan-tae must have noticed something.
That sly rat.
Seok-hoon.
I knew I shouldn't have trusted you.
So you betrayed me and went over to Soo-ryeon's side?
It looks like he left Busan Port already.
He was definitely on that fishing boat. I checked a photo of him on that boat.
He probably escaped before the stowaway came by.
I didn't think he would be suspicious of you too.
I'm sure Seok-hoon was just a tool he needed to return to Korea.
If we sit and wait, he might attack us first.
Once he gets cornered, he'll try to use Seok-hoon and Seok-kyung.
I can't let my kids get hurt.
He's an expert in disguising and committing crimes.
If he decides to hide himself, there's no way of finding him.
The police have no idea where he is.
He said he'll return to Hera Palace.
He said if he must die, he'll die there.
Does he want to turn
Hera Palace into his grave?
Then there is only one way.
What is it?
We'll set up a trap,
so he can't hide anywhere in this world.
Then he'll walk into his grave himself.
It's time for us to expose the ugly and wicked nature of Joo Dan-tae.
Breaking news.
People are in shock as previous criminal acts of Joo Dan-tae,
the murderer of Oh Yoon-hee, get exposed one after the other.
Do you remember the horrible gun killing of a genius pianist
who was based in New York?
If the murder was carefully planned by a psychopath
because he wanted to marry this woman, would you believe it?
It could have been a cold case forever,
but the murderer of the gun killing from 20 years ago has been identified,
and the suspect is now on the wanted list.
Please take a look at the culprit's face.
Joo Dan-tae. His real name is Baek Jun-ki.
The Korean-American wizard of real estate investment, James Lee,
has announced a two-billion-won reward for those who report Chairman Joo Dan-tae,
who's currently on the run.
-That crazy man. -It's the highest reward on record.
Chairman Joo Dan-tae is under suspicion of blowing up CEO Logan Lee's vehicle,
as well as the murder of an entire family in Osaka,
which shocked the Korean-Japanese community.
-Chairman Joo Dan-tae has stolen… -Can you open the door?
I'm the inn's owner.
Darn it.
Didn't you say you needed a toothbrush?
CHAIRMAN JOO, THE TWO-FACED PSYCHOPATH
Darn it.
It's Joo Dan-tae!
Hello? Is this the police?
Joo Dan-tae just ran away!
BUSAN LUCKY MOTEL
This afternoon, the police took the fingerprints of Joo Dan-tae,
who escaped from the inn he stayed in.
The police confirmed that Chairman Joo came back to Korea.
The police are putting in all their resources into arresting him.
HELLO, MY DAD IS AN ALCOHOLIC I'M STARVING. PLEASE HELP ME.
1 PACK OF GUM: 200 WON PLEASE HELP! MY SISTER IS STARVING
-Goodness. Did I keep you waiting? -Yes.
My gosh.
Could you buy a pack of gum?
Hey, get lost.
What a nuisance.
My gosh.
Could you buy a pack of gum?
Hey, I told you to get lost.
Jeez.
He's so annoying.
-Let me go! -What's with you?
-Hey, stop it. -Hey, officers.
You rascal.
-Let go. -Get back here.
-Where's the money? -I don't have it.
-Is it here? -No, stop it.
I found it here.
No, give it to me.
If you had it, why did you lie to us?
-No, that's mine. -Give it to me.
You jerk.
Have you seen this man? He has a burn scar on his face.
I haven't.
Darn it.
Excuse me.
-Arrest him! -Stay still!
-Isn't that the criminal? -Is it him?
What are you doing? Go get that man!
I'm not going down like this.
I'll make sure I survive.
I'm not going back to the days when I had to beg for a living.
Even if I must die, I can't die out on the streets like this.
I'll make sure I return home,
to my penthouse.
I'll go back by all means.
Please wake up already. Please.
If you die like this,
then I really won't forgive you.
Dad.
DONGBU POLICE STATION
Goodness, I married the wrong man,
slaved away for my in-laws,
and I'm about to be thrown back in prison.
That's what I want to say.
I was born as the only son of a prestigious family that practices law,
and I lived a great life, enjoying luxuries at Hera Palace.
How did I end up like this?
As if. You lived your life in luxury? You were just Chairman Joo's minion.
A minion?
Hey, are you all done?
Why? Did I just hit home?
You aren't so smart like Dr. Ha, and you aren't strong like Mr. Yoo.
You're nothing but just a mommy's boy.
I heard I should never marry a woman
who's born under the stars that make them live a tough life.
Goodness, this is why I was told not to marry a younger jerk like you.
I would rather raise a dog than you.
A dog? A jerk?
-Will you keep talking like that? -What?
-Darn it. -What a sight.
I guess you two won't be bored in jail.
Ma-ri.
What brings you here?
-Wait, are you here to help us? -Why should I?
I can't help people who caused trouble while they were on probation.
I came to relay something Min-hyuk asked me to tell you.
Listen up, you immature couple.
ENLISTMENT NOTICE
"Dear Mom and Dad,
I could never decide
which one of you I hated more because you two are equally bad."
"But…"
Right now, I hate myself the most.
So I want to be reborn.
I want to be a real man.
ENLISTMENT NOTICE
What? Min-hyuk is joining the military?
Min-hyuk! No!
How are you going to survive in the military?
You're a third-generation only son.
Right. Kyu-jin, Soo-ryeon bought your house.
My gosh!
What?
I suppose she's starting a business.
She's buying a unit on every floor of Hera Palace.
I heard she paid the market price.
Really? Great.
Hey, did you put it up for sale behind my back?
To take all the money?
You tried to pocket 500 billion won.
You're in no position to say anything!
You jerk! You're a thief! I want a divorce now!
What did you say?
Hey, what does that make my mom?
I'll tell her everything!
-Hey! -Let's get a divorce!
-Let's split up! -Take my ring!
It's a good thing that their son is joining the military.
-Who do you think you are? -Quiet down!
-How dare you? -What did I do?
Here, Mom.
Mom, please.
Where is my daughter?
Who are you?
Bring my daughter to me.
Bring my daughter to me right now!
Your daughter is right here.
It's me, Eun-byeol. Don't you remember me?
Is my husband here yet?
My husband is a neurosurgeon at Cheong-a Medical Center.
He's been swamped at work.
But if he heard I was unwell, he'd hurry over and look after me.
I'll tell Dad to hurry over.
Your dad?
Who is your dad? Who do you think you are?
The test results show that she's in the late stage of dementia.
-Take your medication. -Her environment changed suddenly.
That and the emotional shock exacerbated her condition.
I'll call him.
Can I see her chart?
Look at me, Mom.
The hippocampus has shrunk drastically.
Where am I?
What is this place? Where am I?
-Where am I -Given her condition,
it'll be impossible to interview her.
-Can I get a doctor's note? -Okay. You don't have to take it.
-I'll call the nurse. -Sure.
Look at me, Mom.
I booked flights for you.
And the acceptance letter arrived from the Juilliard School.
Put it all behind and focus on your studies.
I leave in two weeks?
It's a boarding school, so there isn't much to prepare.
Leave early so you can learn the language and adapt yourself.
I'll take care of your place.
I want to wait until Mr. Ha wakes up.
Once I know he's fine, I'll do as you say.
It might take
much longer than we're expecting for Dr. Ha to wake up.
I'll call you as soon as he wakes up.
So you should stop worrying about us and just leave.
Be it singing or studying, there's a time for everything.
Hye-in will pick you up at the airport.
Please…
look after Mr. Ha.
What happened with what I asked?
I just do what you tell me to.
I purchased five additional units today.
Here.
REAL ESTATE PURCHASE AGREEMENT
Why are you buying up so many units?
You're paying a premium when the prices have dropped.
Buy up the remaining units if the owners show a willingness to sell.
You should sell yours too.
Why don't you get a lot in Cheonsu District?
Why are you doing this?
Why are you buying all the units in this wretched Hera Palace?
You know how many people died here.
I hope it never happens,
but I am preparing for the worst.
Joo Dan-tae was obsessive about Hera Palace.
He'd do anything if he thinks it's over for him.
Don't tell me that's what you're thinking.
Gosh, then again,
he doesn't value human life at all.
Who knows? He may set fire to it today.
But no one has heard from him, so maybe he's dead.
Maybe he starved to death or was struck by lightning.
Something must have happened.
They're offering a reward of two billion won.
If he died, his body would have turned up by now.
That's why…
I plan to make him come to Hera Palace.
But how?
Well…
I'm getting engaged to Logan next week.
You're getting engaged? Seriously?
That's great.
I told Ma-ri about our engagement.
And just in case,
I've bought over 90 percent of the units in Hera Palace.
It should be almost empty by next week.
Dan-tae will return to Hera Palace.
If he hears that we're getting engaged at Hera Palace,
which he values as much as his life, he'll make that D-Day.
I'll kill that scumbag.
Please stand back and be safe.
I'm the one he's after.
He's coming back to kill me.
I promise
that I won't let him kill me.
How's Seo-jin doing?
She's getting worse by the day.
She doesn't even recognize Eun-byeol.
The test results confirmed that she has early-onset dementia.
-Early-onset dementia? -Yes.
This is her chart.
We're monitoring her 24 hours a day. It doesn't look like she's pretending.
I don't believe it.
The investigation has been delayed,
and she got a restraining order against the loan sharks.
The timing is just too suspicious.
Right, I agree. Let's monitor the situation.
The engagement ceremony is a week away.
I hope Dan-tae responds according to our plan.

Hey.
Why are you standing there all awkward?
Pardon?
What did I do?
Darn it.
Tell me right away if Joo Dan-tae shows up.
The reward is two billion won.
Don't try to do anything stupid.
Yes, sir.
I'm going out for a smoke.
Long time no see, Mr. Cho.
Sir.
What happened to your face?
That's not important now.
I'm starving. Do you have anything to eat?
How is it?
There are cops everywhere outside. We can't let them hear you.
Where have you been? There's a national manhunt for you.
I bet you'll betray me too.
There's a two-billion-won reward on me.
Even my son stabbed me in the back. You won't be any different.
Didn't you come here
because you trusted me?
I will stay loyal to you until the end,
no matter what happens,
even if it costs me my life.
My parents' place is empty at the moment. Stay there for the time being.
Oh, Ms. Sim and Logan are getting engaged. Did you hear?
What did you just say?
They'll have a small ceremony next week with just close friends.
-Where? -I heard it'll be at Hera Palace.
Hera Palace?
Those crazy morons.
How dare they get engaged at my Hera Palace?
They will happily get engaged after doing this to me?
I won't let that happen.
They're the reason I'm in this mess.
-Mr. Cho. -Yes, sir.
Get me some explosives.
Something more powerful than the one we used on Logan.
About ten Claymore bombs that weigh at least 5kg each.
Sorry? What do you plan to do?
You idiot.
-You can do it, right? -Yes, sir.
This time, I'll kill them for real.
No mistakes allowed.
ENGAGEMENT CEREMONY D-DAY
This is the master key for the penthouse.
Thanks.
Sir.
Is this…
really the only option?
There will be too many victims.
If you stop this now…
Shut it, you idiot.
I'm putting everything on the line.
I will arrange the best engagement party for those two, with my own hands.
RIGHT OF RETENTION
AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ONLY
I…
Well…
I met Chairman Joo Dan-tae.
I bought improvised explosive devices…
Why do something I never told you to do?
You know that I hate traitors more than anything.
You still didn't get it, even after all those beatings.
POLICE
Congratulations on your engagement, Logan. You look dashing today.
Thank you.
The kids went on a trip together.
It's a farewell party for Ro-na and Min-hyuk.
It's such a pity that only a few people were invited to this beautiful party.
Hera Palace was always full of people.
Now, I'm the only Hera Club member left.
I know.
Please take care of everything for us today.
Of course.
The statue of Hera looks even more beautiful today.
It's such a shame.
Had it never got any blood on it, it would have been loved forever.
Right, Logan?
I'm ready.
You look stunning.
Of all the brides I've ever seen,
you're the most beautiful one.
Thank you.
Let's go. Everyone must be waiting.
I love you, Soo-ryeon.
Don't worry.
It'll be fine.
NO CALLER ID
SPEAKER
Sim Soo-ryeon. You look even more beautiful today.
And that jerk, Logan, is looking pretty good too.
Come to the penthouse at once. I'll give you five minutes.
But you must come alone.
If you don't,
I might just blow up the entire building.
I set up some bombs here and there.
I miss you, so you'd better hurry.
Ring the emergency bell! It's an emergency.
-Evacuate all residents. Now! -What's going on?
There are bombs in Hera Palace.
Evacuate the residents first.
-We don't have time! -What? Bombs?
Darn it.
Ring the emergency bell now.
Attention, all residents.
There are bombs in Hera Palace.
Please evacuate immediately.
I repeat.
There are bombs in Hera Palace.
Evacuate the building at once.
Don't worry about your belongings. Just leave the building. Hurry!
Cover her so she doesn't get hurt.
-My gosh. -Mom!
-Where? -Get out of here!
Hey, what happened?
Why are you here? You went on a trip.
I knew something was up when you pushed us out the door.
Bombs? Where?
I bet my dad set up the bombs.
Is my mom okay? Nothing happened to her, right?
She'll help us buy time.
We need to evacuate everyone first. If not, we'll all die. Hurry!
The elderly and kids should get out first.
Hurry!
If you can't use the lift, take the stairs over there!
-Slow down so no one gets hurt! -Slow down. This way!
Be careful!
Thanks for coming to my engagement party, Dan-tae.
You finally showed up!
At last,
I have the chance to kill you with my own hands.
Do you actually think you can do it?
Right.
Congratulations on your engagement.
You see, I prepared a last-minute present.
I hope you like it.
If I press this button,
the bombs in the fountain and the penthouse will go off.
They are much more powerful than the one I used on Logan,
so they sure won't let you down.
Boom.
Boom!
You psychopath.
If you want to die, die alone.
Why must I die alone?
What did I do wrong?
Are you aware that your father
killed my mother and sister?
His company, Simwoon Construction, took away our house.
I want to retrieve what was taken from me. What's wrong with that?
No. 27 Cheonsu District always belonged to my father.
Your parents started living on that land without permission.
The demolition accident was caused by Baek Jun-ki's father.
My father didn't even know about it.
Don't make excuses!
Of course, the noble Sim Soo-ryeon
would never admit to doing anything wrong.
Don't move.
How dare you defile my Hera Palace?
Only I can have this place and only I can destroy it.
If I can't have it, no one can. Do you understand?
I didn't want to die alone and lonely,
so it comforts me to know that you'll die with me.
My, that is a nice dress.
It would make the most perfect burial shroud.
Drop the remote.
Do you think you can dare to shoot me?
The moment you pull the trigger, I will press this button.
Then, Hera Palace will disappear in the blink of an eye.
Come on.
Shoot me.
I told you to drop the remote!
I said I'd kill you if you kept getting cheeky with me!
Just like your ex-husband, Min Seol-a, and Oh Yoon-hee!
Go ahead and shoot me. Do it!
This is for all the innocent lives you took away!
You crazy witch!
I'm Joo Dan-tae! How dare you shoot me?
You're still obsessed with that name?
You're paying
for all the horrible things that you did.
Drop the remote!
Sim Soo-ryeon.
Let's go together.
To the fiery pit.
Mom. You can't die. You must survive!
I love you two so much.
You deserved to die like that.
-Now we've got only Seo-jin left. -That you'd die because of me…
Live a happy life, Ro-na.
Mom!
I will save Eun-byeol.
