You dumb broad.
Where's the money? Tell me.
Tell me where it is!
Come on!
I'm going to kill you today.
Let's see if you're still not going to tell me where it is.
You're not going to tell me?
Where is the money?
Do you really want to die? Answer me!
Where's my money? Where is it?
My life had changed completely...
at the age of 12.
Before the age of 12...
I'm not sure.
Man, what's taking you so long?
I don't remember.
Hey, it's starting soon. What are you still doing here?
I don't have...
Are you sleeping? How can you still be sleeping?
any memories before 12.
He's sleeping!
- I'll tell him to be there. - Okay. You do that.
Take this too.
No. I'm not leaving.
I won't leave. What about you?
I...
have to do something here.
So you go there without me for now.
- No. - You must go.
- I'm not leaving. - You must.
- Please. - Hurry.
Mom, I want to stay here with you.
I'm not leaving. You listen to me!
I don't want to go.
Please let me stay with you.
- I'll be there soon. - Don't leave me alone.
Hurry. Go now.
I don't remember anything after that.
No house.
No mom.
No friends.
I didn't have anything left.
The investment's in Newcastle housing.
In Newcastle? In England? That's quite something.
The investment's doing well,
but we're still looking for more buyers.
(Would you like some more wine?)
(White wine.)
Oh, gosh. Oh, no.
I'm sorry. I am so sorry. Are you okay?
I apologize.
- Are you all right? - It's fine.
Give me your number.
I'll take you out to dinner instead of the laundry fee.
Pardon?
Excuse me.
It's fine.
Every day, I worked at night to get through the day,
and to me,
he was the first.
The first person...
I apologize.
to say it's okay.
To smile at me.
It was the day we first met.
He started laughing like crazy.
(You're so funny.)
(Excuse me for a second.)
Honey.
Are you all right?
I'm sorry I couldn't call.
You're sorry?
You didn't call once for a whole year.
And now you're sorry?
Are you kidding me?
That's why I came to see you.
I had my reasons.
Let's not do this here. Let's get something to eat.
I haven't eaten all day.
Please?
You know I hate to eat alone.
Shall we get some noodles? It's been a while.
I wanted to take his hand.
If I took it,
I thought all my sadness would melt away.
I wanted him to be mine.
I wanted to make him mine.
Back then,
I shouldn't have taken that hand.
I'm sorry.
(When the Devil Calls)
(Hwang Na Yoon)
Aunt Yeo Wool.
Is my mom really dead and buried here?
Can I never see her again?
Yes, Jae In.
Your mom has died.
But the thing is...
Is that true?
Promise me.
Hwang Jae In.
Instead of your mom and dad, I will be there for you.
Can you both give me a hug?
If An Ji Yong is really alive,
it makes even less sense how nothing pointed towards that.
Even so,
nothing directly points to Song Yeo Wool doing much either.
Listen.
There's definitely a connection between An Ji Yong's fund...
and the foundation.
Song Yeo Wool had to help him with that.
She doesn't get anything out of doing so.
It changes if they are accomplices.
An Ji Yong and Song Yeo Wool are married.
No one knows what goes on between a married couple.
I need you to go to her and find out what exactly she's planning.
Detective.
Another person is dead, okay?
And you'll keep making me do this?
Hey, lowlife and fraud.
Have you forgotten where you stand?
Don't act like you're special.
Okay. I'll do everything you say.
Just take one thing from me.
What's that?
You hit me before I was ready.
Hey, punk. Stop right there!
What does he take a detective for?
It's Song Yeo Wool.
Can I get into Alex Commer's office?
I think the papers that are missing are there.
I also need the authority to view foundation assets...
and accounting records.
I also need the transfers that Chairman Hwang approved...
and the owner of the receiving accounts.
Yes, right now.
Ma'am, something came up.
I will have to cancel today's lesson.
The passcode to the gym is 1845. You can enter the gym...
and get your stuff.
Found it.
Park Han Bum?
Who are you people?
We know everything, so tell us the truth.
What gibberish.
It was him, right?
The one who paid you to cause that accident.
Gosh. Who paid me for what?
I had a little soju and then got behind the wheel...
and dozed off.
I told the cops everything.
He already told us everything.
We have evidence and a confession.
If you keep denying it by yourself,
it will add on to the charges.
Are you okay with rotting in jail all by yourself?
That jerk did nothing wrong?
You jerk. Who are you? Are you a cop?
A cop?
I'm the attorney for Hwang Na Yoon, whom you ran over.
Think long and hard about this.
If you give a proper statement, it may help reduce the charges,
but if not, it will become very miserable for you in here.
Aren't you worried about your ten-year-old son and wife?
Lawyer? Is a lawyer threatening me?
What a scary world!
Look at this! These people are threatening me!
How is this possible in this democratic nation?
- Calm... - He's going to hit me!
Get lost. I've said everything I have to say.
If you lay a finger on my family,
I'll make you regret it.
Even I don't know what I'm capable of in here.
I don't know what I'm capable of either.
(Audio file)
Get lost. I've said everything I have to say.
If you lay a finger on my family,
I'll make you regret it.
Even I don't know what I'm capable of in here.
Sorry, but his statement won't be useful.
You heard what that jerk said.
This was not negligence.
Someone put him up to it.
Okay. I don't think we'll get anything more from him.
She's not here today either.
Excuse me. Hello.
Do you know the woman who sold shellfish like conch and abalone?
What about her?
Do you know where she went?
I don't see her in the market.
I don't know.
She disappeared without a word.
She looked almost possessed and had a soju bottle glued to her hand,
so I asked why she was so out of it...
and gave her some advice she didn't like,
and she had never come back since.
Do you know where she lives?
I don't know if she has any friends or family.
She never talks about herself.
But why are you looking for her?
She's close to a friend of mine...
and I needed to see her about something.
Anyway. Thank you.
(Conch porridge, Takeout available)
Where did she go?
I haven't seen her at all since the funeral.
I'm sure she's fine.
She couldn't have gone far.
Jeju isn't that big.
Still. What if something happened...
Hey. Stop thinking about stupid things like that.
I'll find Ms. Sim.
Okay, let's call it a day.
Let's go eat.
I haven't eaten all day.
How can you eat right now?
We need to survive.
Look at you. You look absolutely haggard from starving.
Gosh. Your skin looks bad.
My skin?
What about you? What's wrong with your face?
Did you get into a fight?
- Well... - Detective Gu looked the same.
What about you? What happened to your arm?
Were you working out or something?
Were you doing arm workouts?
I was lifting some heavy things.
I'm hungry. I'm starving even more after chattering on.
That place looks like they would have a lot of stuff.
Let's go there.
Is it a sushi place?
What's good here?
Cheers.
May I ask you something?
Why is An Ji Yong...
going this far?
She was in a coma.
If Director Hwang Na Yoon dies,
all rights go to her legal spouse.
When he was in Hong Kong,
he lived as Kevin Hwang,
Na Yoon's husband.
He made her siphon funds...
from the foundation to her Hong Kong account.
Now that she has died, he's trying...
to freely move that money.
That monster.
Where is he now?
I don't know either.
Since I can't find him,
I have to make him show himself to me.
Mom, when are you coming home?
Is it Yi Chan?
Yes. He's asking when I'll be home.
Let's finish the bottle and get going.
Excuse me. I need to run to the restroom.
(Customer Appreciation Event)
I'll go home now.
- Yes, doctor. Good night. - Yes, doctor. Good night.
Let's go, sir.
Goodnight, sir.
Goodnight.
Hold on a second.
So you're saying, now that the chairman is gone,
the group from Hong Kong might take over the foundation. Right?
Unbelievable. I get that the foundation needs help,
but how could they proceed with this...
without asking our opinions first?
Do you think we should send our kids to this school?
Shouldn't you take a stand at times like this?
Right. You're the representative of the PTA. You must speak up.
I don't care what the admission of the foundation wants.
We can't just wait and see. Right?
There's a more pressing matter. Have you heard?
It's about the junior school teacher, Rachel Jo.
What? What about her?
Well,
I heard this from a parent of another class.
Before coming here, she got caught...
doing weeds at an academy in Gangnam.
The school kept it on the hush-hush while knowing everything.
Oh, my. How can we trust our kids with someone like her?
It doesn't make sense.
This is not right.
You know that this is ridiculous.
If we make a move without a plan,
we might end up ridiculing ourselves.
Then what's your plan?
We must make this bigger than it is.
Make this bigger than it is?
To exercise our rights as parents,
we need a scandal big enough to go off at the right time.
What we need is a reason.
- I can't believe this. - This is ridiculous.
- Didn't you hear? - Really?
- The H international school? - This is driving me crazy.
- Is this about our school? - This is crazy.
- Exactly. - Goodness.
- Hong Kong is about to take over. - Really?
- This is about our school? - Come on.
- Did you read that? - "An international school..."
"foundation is about to lose control to a foreign company."
That's not true.
That's not about our school.
Goodbye.
Goodness. Come on.
Yes. This is Han Gun Young. Please wait.
Yes. Yes, ma'am.
Please wait.
Go ahead.
No. That teacher quit.
Bye.
Yes. My apologies, ma'am.
You want to call for a PTA meeting?
Gosh. Why does my skin look so dry?
It's making me look old.
- Oh, right. - Cut. Okay.
It wasn't me!
Now, my skin looks silky.
Everyone knows that pomegranates are great for women.
Now that I'm getting older, I've been experiencing menopause...
Gosh. Menopause. Seriously?
Chef Jung Mi Do's "Chef Diary" from tvN will air soon.
Yes.
You deserve to have a successful career.
Go and conquer the world.
Gosh.
Sir, I'm so sorry.
Hey, Do Young. How could you betray me like this?
Well, it just happened that way.
Signing with a new agency wasn't my idea.
What are you talking about? A foreign sponsor?
I might be broke,
but I don't sell myself for money.
Don't you know me?
Then you switched to a new agency before our contract was up.
And you accepted TV shows. Why did you do that then?
It's not what you think.
I'm sure you know how things are with me.
My awful husband sold me to this agency because he's in debt.
What choice did I have? I haven't had any work lately.
Hey, let's get this straight.
Is it my fault that you didn't have any work?
You even turned down...
the variety show deal recently through Daesang Group.
Wait. What are you talking about?
The variety show you talked about was connected to Daesang Group?
With Nam Ji Sun?
I don't want to talk about what already happened.
I sent you a document stating you violated the contract...
and demanding the penalty.
- So you've been informed. - Sir!
We've been working together for years. How could you betray me?
I'll see you in court.
Wait!
- Ms. Cha. - I'm on my way.
No. Today's filming has been canceled.
You can talk to the chief producer for details.
Wait. What are you talking about? This is so sudden.
("Celebrity C's Husband Gets Arrested by Court for Gambling")

(Radio Studio, Conference Rooms)
Oh, no. My bag!
Watch where you're going!
Cut.
- Are you all right? - Are you okay?
- I'm okay. - Gosh.
What? That's Cha Do Young.
She must be here to sell stuff for a home-shopping network.
It was something about pomegranates.
But doesn't she have a stylist or a manager?
She's carrying everything by herself.
She's old news now. Poor thing.
Hey, did you see the news articles?
Her husband went abroad to gamble.
- And she got a sponsor. - Hey.
Be quiet. She can hear you.
Oh, my. I pity her.
How pathetic.
Mr. Jung, this way.
- Let's film that again. - This way.
Sorry.
Goodness. Let's go.
Hi, Si Woo.
Mom, did you arrive in Seoul safely?
- When are you coming back? - Well, I'm still filming.
It's not over yet.
Can you buy me some of the cartoon gaming cards?
The stationery shops here don't have them yet.
Jun Hee and Tommy have them already.
Si Woo, I will...
Mom, what's wrong?
- Are you crying? - No.
I'm sorry, Si Woo.
I...
I wanted to do well this time.
But...
Gosh. Mom.
You don't have to be a celebrity.
What?
What's so bad about not working?
I'm okay.
So don't cry. Buy the cards and come back home. Okay?
I love you, Mom.
Okay.
I love you very much too.
You're everything for me.
Wait for me. I'll be home in a jiffy.

[VIU Ver] tvN E14 'High Class' "When the Devil Calls" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥- Synced with Subcake Android
(Great to be here. Maggie Chen, the chair of Wan Chai Group.)
(I'm here to directly exercise...)
(the authority to run the school from now on.)
Are you saying you will be the chairman?
(Any reason not to?)
Yes. You may speak.
Is it true that school ownership might be transferred to Hong Kong?
What about disbanding the PTA?
I demand an explanation.
Well...
Nothing has been decided yet.
Right now, a board meeting is underway.
I acknowledge your concerns...
regarding the recent chain of unfortunate events...
and sympathize with you all.
I hope you don't feel too disturbed...
and please wait for the board's ruling on...
That means the school's ownership might really be transferred.
How could you let this happen?
Well, the thing is...
According to the foundation's legislation...
(Wan Chai Group has already obtained the operating rights...)
(of HSC Foundation.)
Our board never agreed to that.
(The investment has already been made under the contract...)
(with Ms. Hwang, the current chair.)
(I have the rights. If you don't agree,)
(then the one billion dollar investment must be returned.)
Okay.
(I want to make a decision.)
(If you're against it, state your position now.)
I'm Nam Ji Sun and I represent the parents of the PTA.
All this has been decided...
without our opinion or consent,
and I can't take it anymore.
Are you all aware of the situation the school is in?
The media has begun to look at us negatively.
There's even talk that some of our teachers had drug problems.
How much longer will you let this go on?
What will you do, Mr. Han?
I will have to see...
All the ongoing transfers...
are to be canceled and accounts frozen.
Yes.
It's my request as the auditor and legal representative.
Yes. I will take full responsibility.
If the foundation continues to act without our consent,
with our authority as the PTA,
we will reject the board's decision.
Not just that, but we'll also take action...
to dismiss the board.
Excuse me, please.
Ms. Nam, do you have to go that far?
Show us how determined you are to get through this crisis.
How about we, as a school,
start a Clean School Campaign to get things going?
That's my strong suggestion.
(Any objections?)
(I'll take that as a no. Well, then...)
(Sorry for the late introduction.)
(I'm a legal advisor, Attorney Yeo Wool Song.)
(What is it?)
(How dare you?)
(You don't have the right to be here,)
(breaking into the meeting like this.)
(I'm here to tell you...)
(it is not only me but also the chairman...)
(who doesn't deserve to be here.)
(What?)
Speak so I can understand.
- You mean... - Yes.
Wan Chai Group's one billion dollar investment.
I will return it.
(Number withheld)
You're quiet. I guess you were waiting for my call.
Is it paradise where you are, or is it purgatory?
Wherever it is, I came to see you.
I think we should meet and talk.
Just you and me.
Sure. I have something to say as well.
What are you doing out here?
Oh, did you change your mind?
Do you want to learn?
Maybe. Should I give it a go?
As if you would.
He called me. He wants to meet.
Okay. I'll come with you.
Just to be safe.
You never know what he planned.
I must go alone, without anyone else.
- That's the condition. - No way.
How can you say that after you saw what happened to Ms. Hwang?
I'll follow you in secret or something.
Keep your phone on and take my calls.
You're not going on your own, okay?
Why won't you answer?
Okay, fine. Stop yelling at me.
You really can't go alone.
I said okay.
You could be in danger.
(Endowment Agreement)
It's the contract used to embezzle from the foundation.
Everything happened because of this.
Now I must really end it.
To do that, I need your help.
How much of what you say am I able to believe?
Last time, you sent me to the airport and I got nothing.
Whether you believe me or not is up to you.
But if you believe me,
you get a shot at arresting the living An Ji Yong.
If you don't, you go on living the life you have now.
Fine.
I'll fall for your tricks once more.
I need you to leave Mr. Oh out of this.
Stop having him follow me.
Oh, that? Okay, sure.
I understand.
There's one more thing.
What's that?
It's about Daesang Group's CEO Nam Ji Sun.
I didn't do much.
The campaign kicks off today.
We should all get together.
I'm glad to have your support.
Don't say that. I'm always on your side.
Okay. See you at the school.
Are you going to work?
I'll head to Seoul as soon as I get off work today.
I've been away from the Cheongdam clinic for too long.
Okay.
You should focus on your work.
Mr. Bang will go with you.
I hired him to assist you wherever you go.
What do you think you're doing?
Are you crazy?
I don't see straight right now.
I heard you're struggling.
Did you lose your mind?
I'm not the strange one. You are.
I heard you were the one that got me off the variety show.
What about it?
Wait... Did you even consider me a friend...
all this time?
A friend?
Who cares about that?
I see. That's it, isn't it?
I was naive, wasn't I?
I want to break everything here,
but I'll stop for old times' sake.
However... Don't live like that.
- What? - Let's never speak again.
Goodbye, my ex-best friend.
Please join us...
in creating a clean school environment.
Our children are being exposed...
to cigarettes and drugs very recklessly.
We moms must be aggressive...
and raise our children's awareness regarding the dangers...
of such harmful substances.
We must prevent them from entering the school...
and perform thorough inspections and education.
Here you go.
Please take a look.
Please teach your children.
You must be tired.
Why don't we go to our hotel...
and relax in the spa?
That's a good idea.
Ms. Nam Ji Sun's phone.
Yes, hello. Wait a second.
Ma'am. It's Chairman Chen of Wan Chai Group.
I think you need to take this.
Hello. It's me.
What do you mean?
That can't be.
Why would I do that to you?
Give me a few minutes.
I'll check right away.
- Ma'am. - Can't you see I'm on the phone?
There's no need to call me.
I came in person.
You voided the contract with Wan Chai Group?
What are you up to?
It's as you said. The undisclosed contract with Wan Chai.
Any contract not approved by the board is unenforceable.
Regardless of how much money exchanged hands.
So you voided it as you wish?
It wasn't as I wished.
As the legal advisor of this school,
I performed Director Hwang's duty on her behalf.
Since it is within my right as per the rules.
But I saw that you had a large share...
in that illegal transaction.
I told you, didn't I?
That I'd uncover everything.
What relationship you had...
with my husband and this foundation.
You pretended to care about the school and the kids.
But you connected the foundation and the hotel...
to launder money superbly.
You seem to be very proud of what you uncovered.
Like that's such a big deal.
I did everything for this school...
and my children.
Can you even fathom what they were?
What would've happened to this school if not for me?
The best...
That doesn't justify what you've done.
Ms. Nam Ji Sun. On behalf of HSC Foundation,
I am reporting you for embezzlement and dereliction of duty.
It's really your turn now.
You won't be able to avoid it anymore.
You have the audacity to mess with me?
You're just a common lawyer.
You must think you're bringing forth some great justice,
but look at yourself first.
Your husband. Your child.
Are you qualified to do this?
At least I'm trying to fix the wrong...
now that I found out about it, albeit belated.
What about you?
You are pitiful till the end.
So... Ma'am.
I'm not in the mood to talk, so get out.
Dr. Lee never showed up at the clinic in Seoul.
They haven't been able to reach him all day.
What do you mean?
What about Mr. Bang?
He dropped him off at the clinic in the morning,
but he never went in.
(Husband)
Honey. I want to turn myself in...
and pay for what I've done.
I'm sorry this is all I'm capable of.
If you divorce me,
you shouldn't be harmed by this.
(Husband)
The phone is turned off.
Please leave a message after the tone.
Find out where he went.
Hello, Detective. I'm on my way.
Is everything okay on your end?
I should be there in about ten minutes.
See you soon.
Was there an accident?
What's the status there?
There are no movements here.
She was supposed to be here 30 minutes ago.
Something's off.
- Hey. - Where are you?
Are you with Song Yeo Wool?
Why would I be with that woman?
I'm a busy man too, you know.
Where are you?
What? What was...
What stupid gibberish is this?
You're saying she was supposed to meet that jerk today...
so you're on a stakeout there.
That's right. But they haven't shown up yet.
Why didn't you tell me that sooner?
I'm hanging up!
I told her not to go alone but she never listens.
This woman. Seriously.
(Song Yeo Wool)
Let's finish the bottle and get going.
Excuse me. I need to run to the restroom.
(Spy apps)
(Install)
(Search people or addresses)
I really was hoping I wouldn't have to use this.
(Song Yeo Wool)
I'm done with my shower.
Mom, it's me.
I need your help.
Yes. It's about my husband.
I'm sorry.
I know what you're worried about.
Like you said, I might be making the wrong decision.
But he's the father of my children.
And to you, he's your first son-in-law.
Whatever happened, we must help him first.
Can you talk to your people at Gangnam Station?
Yes. Please do this for me.
You're sure he went to Seoul, right?
I confirmed that he got on the flight to Gimpo at 3pm.
Hurry. I must get there before things get more complicated.
Hey, it's because I had some raspberry wine. So what?
Sir. It splashed on the wall.
It didn't directly splash on this guy.
- Hey, lower your voices! - Come on.
Do you think this is your house?
What is this about?
Well, I...
I...
I killed someone.
What?
It's been a while.
What do you think you're doing?
Calm down. I said I wanted only the two of us to meet.
Aren't you happy to see me?
I just didn't expect this kind of reaction from you.
You look like...
you're not happy that I'm alive.
You...
abandoned me and Yi Chan.
You turned all the years we spent together...
into lies.
That was the best I could do at that time.
I needed to do that to survive.
You could have told me.
That's why I told you to trust me and wait for me.
You just didn't trust me.
After faking your death,
were you going to...
start a new life as someone else in a new place?
With that woman? As Kevin Hwang?
Did you think that could give you a clean slate?
Why on earth...
Why did you take things this far?
This wasn't my plan.
Seeing you in person like this wasn't part of my plan.
I'm sorry I didn't come forward earlier, ma'am.
I'm Doh Jin Sol, foundation chairman.
I see.
Not only did Mr. An have...
very close ties with the foundation,
he was very interested in our work and he supported us greatly.
Then that invitation...
I sent it.
It was Mr. An's wishes when he was alive.
I apologize for not telling you in advance.
That woman created this whole mess.
This could have been a simple case.
But she complicated everything.
Gosh.
Oh, my.
What about Mr. Commer?
I don't know. He must be somewhere between paradise and purgatory.
How could you...
Are you the same person I've known all this time?
Your memory about me isn't important.
I came to fix what had gone wrong.
Why did you freeze...
the bank account?
All the ongoing transfers...
are to be canceled and accounts frozen.
Ms. Song, if you cancel the transfers,
all the money that was being wired will return to its original account.
Will this be okay with you?
Yes. It's my request as the auditor and legal representative.
Yes. I will take full responsibility.
Because it wasn't yours, to begin with.
So I'm just putting it back to where it should belong.
Honey, I need that money.
Honey.
It's not too late. Turn yourself in.
Please? Turn yourself in. And return all of that money.
You can return the money and start over.
- So... - Start over?
Fine, honey. I want to start over.
That's why I came here to meet you.
But you can't get in my way then.
Honey! This is a crime! Okay?
There are victims.
Are you going to be on the run for the rest of your life?
Get off on your high horse.
Are you still fooling yourself that you didn't know what I was up to?
The money I gave you.
Clothes, cars, our house, and even Yi Chan!
Where did you think they all came from?
You know what they did to me?
They clung to me like cockroaches.
And they begged me to help them make money just like I did.
But those pigs didn't know the first thing about investing!
No one said anything when I made money for them.
Why? Because I put everything I had on the line.
Even my life.
But how dare they call me a fraud because a few investments went bad?
Am I a criminal? Did I break that law?
Tell them to stop fooling themselves.
They brought this upon themselves.
Okay. I understand, honey.
I'm neither responsible...
nor at fault to return my money to those scumbags.
- Got it? - Yes.
Okay. I got it. So...
Please don't do this.
How will you...
explain this to Yi Chan later?
How will you face him?
I plead with you. I'm begging.
Please, for Yi Chan's sake...
Don't try to appeal to my paternal love.
I love my son more than anyone.
Now make up your mind. You're smart.
If you send the money to the account in Hong Kong,
you, I, and Yi Chan...
can start over.
Honey. Do you...
Do you think that's possible? Do you?
No?
What now, then?
There's no one here but you and I.
No one will know if you go missing here.
And I'm already a dead man.
I don't want to be any crueler to you.
You know I'm impatient.
