(The Final Episode)
Yes.
- Hello? - This evening,
the Management Awards Ceremony will be held.
Mujin Group will receive the Grand Award at the ceremony.
Okay, so what?
I'll receive the award on behalf of the company,
and I'd like you to be there.
Me? Why?
I want you to listen to my award acceptance speech.
(The 20th Management Awards)
I am...
a murderer.
On December 24, 2009,
I caused a hit-and-run and killed someone.
(Mujin Group)
Then...
my father...
buried the body on Mount Mueon.
(The 20th Management Awards)
Am I wrong, Father?
(Dawn of December 25, 2009)
When did you start following me?
Please...
don't do this.
You shouldn't do this.
Get out of here now, before someone sees you.
- Father! - Now.
A few days ago,
you must've seen on the news that a man's body...
and a female skeleton were found on Mount Mueon.
How did that make you feel?
You were the one who buried that body there, Father.
You and I are the only ones who know the truth about that day,
so tell the truth yourself.
(The 20th Management Awards)
Who buried the body? Was it me?
Or was it you?
What you did that day...
led to even bigger crimes.
It kept on spreading like poison,
Father.
(Mujin Group)
- Is it true? - Did you really bury the body?
- Is it true? - Is it really true?
- The skeleton found on Mount Mueon. - Just a comment, sir.
- Is it true that you buried it? - Is it true?
Is everything your son said really true?
- Do you admit it? - Was he telling the truth?
Is it true?
Is it true? Just a comment, sir.
- Do you admit it? - Get him on camera.
- He's leaving. - Go after him.
My father and I committed the crime in 2009,
and I've only decided to reveal it in 2024.
I sincerely apologize.
I am sorry.
(The 20th Management Awards)
Mr. Seol Woo Jae.
You're under arrest for violating the Act on Special Cases...
concerning Traffic Accidents.
You have the right to remain silent.
Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law.
You have the right to an attorney as well.
- There he is! - He's coming out!
- He's here. - Get him on camera!
- Just a comment, please. - Please step back.
- How do you feel now that... - Step aside, please.
- Say a few words. - Just a comment!
Has Jung Won found out everything?
Is that why you turned yourself in?
I've lied to you this whole time.
Would you believe everything I say?
Do you trust me?
Shall I trust you?
Don't you regret turning yourself in?
I do regret it.
Then I can trust you.
Are you sure you don't need an attorney present?
What you did is one thing,
but why did you reveal what your father did as well?
For his sake, you could've concealed that he buried the body.
That day...
Had he not covered up what I did,
and had he taken me to the police and let me get punished,
things wouldn't have gotten this messed up.
No matter how much I loathe him, he is still my father,
so I can't let him turn into a bigger monster.
Once I became convinced that you were the hit-and-run driver,
I traced your past.
Before you moved to the US at age 20,
you were admitted against your will...
to a large psychiatric facility.
Chairman Seol will use your mental health records...
and drug use to render your statement inadmissible.
With a statement alone, you're at a great disadvantage.
Regarding my hit-and-run offense,
there is one piece of evidence.
(Two days ago)
It'll be a shard of the headlight...
from the car I drove that night.
I don't know why my father kept it this long,
but I took it in case it connected to me.
If what you say is true,
we'll find Chairman Seol's prints on this plastic bag,
and if we compare the blood on the glass with Lee Na Ri's DNA...
It'll confirm...
it's Na Ri's blood.
I'd like to bring your father in for a chat,
but I'm not sure if it's possible.
Considering who he is.
It'll be a tough fight and we're at a disadvantage.
But let's do it.
It will take a long time,
but still.
In the end, you'll win.
The truth is on your side.
(Mujin Group Heir Seol Confesses to Murder and Is Arrested)
If both father and son take a hit,
what happens to Mujin Group?
What about my profit?
What on earth is going on?
I even gave you the evidence.
What happens to the second resort?
Your son confessed in public,
so there's no covering it up.
You'll let Woo Jae take the fall, won't you?
You want me to shove my son off a cliff like you did?
Why would you bring that up right now?
The evidence you gave me is gone.
- What? - I think Woo Jae took it.
Not only will the DNA come up, but they'll find our prints as well.
Wait.
I had nothing to do with that girl's death.
A detective will come to ask why they found your prints...
on evidence related to a case you had nothing to do with.
And then...
they'll look into our relationship.
What?
All the top-secret documents you'd kept at home.
You moved them.
Admit that you had my dad killed.
Apologize for having my dad...
killed.
How dare you use my son?
I helped Woo Jae.
To escape the torment of having to...
hide his crime forever.
Even if you don't admit or apologize to me,
in the end,
Father, you will crumble.
I will make it happen.
(Most popular news)
(Na Pil Seung Drug Charge, Dropped From Drama)
I think Chairman Seol's manipulating the media.
I saw too.
It's a video of Woo Jae hitting Lee Na Ri and driving off.
If I apply for an arrest warrant based on this,
I can get one right away.
I became a woman who sent her own husband to prison.
Aren't I scary?
The real scary person...
is your father-in-law.
You fought against him and came this far.
That's not scary. That's admirable.
- I should go. - Jung Won.
Woo Jae has something to tell you in person.
I'm glad.
I'd have felt hurt if you didn't care...
I was in here.
Jung Won.
I have a favor to ask.
I'd like you to do what I ask.
The video of my hit-and-run...
that your father took.
Play it on TV.
Say the late Seo Sang Gyeon took it,
and that video...
got him killed.
That Chairman Seol Pan Ho did it.
The fact that your father-in-law killed your father.
Report it as an exclusive.
Use the broadcast to get everyone...
to focus on my father and me. That's the only way...
to force a crack in my father's stronghold.
I already resigned...
and my show was axed.
There's no law against...
a former reporter appearing on TV.
An audio recording of my father you can play on air.
I gave it to Detective Kim.
Jung Won. It's okay to do it.
You must do it.
Seol Pan Ho's voice recording.
It's not just this.
A piece of the broken headlight Chairman Seol had kept hidden.
Woo Jae had taken and hid it.
If it's a piece of the headlight, the blood...
Whether it's Lee Na Ri's,
and whether Chairman Seol's prints are on it.
We're having it tested.
I'll tell you as soon as we get the results.
Thanks.
You once asked me something.
What I think when I catch a culprit.
Do you remember what I said?
You said that you don't think.
You just catch them.
Don't think about anything else.
Just do what you need to do.
Only you can do it.

(Seol Woo Jae Arrested for Hit-And-Run Death)
(Seol was arrested at last night's 20th Management Awards.)
(Seo Jung Won would've covered this if her program were still on.)
(Chief Kang In Han)
Chief, I need to talk to you right now.
My gosh. This is...
- What is this? - Gosh.
Your dad took this video?
- Yes. - What kind of twisted fate is this?
How did things get so complicated?
Will you really play this on TV?
There's one more thing to play.
What is it?
Secretary Gong was arrested.
It's for the better.
Your wife is on the way home after watching his interrogation.
Console her.
As I console her,
should I say Secretary Gong didn't kill her father?
Should I say it was you?
What would you get out of doing that?
Your father-in-law was asked point blank if he killed your dad,
and he didn't deny it.
My husband will be arraigned today.
We must release this before then for it to really explode.
Ms. Seo.
If the chairman's daughter-in-law were to release these,
it would cause a huge ruckus.
Are you okay with that?
Yes. You're attacking your husband and his father.
Would our society accept that?
Can you handle the aftermath?
It could hit you badly. Are you sure about this?
I won't think about anything else.
I'll just do what I must.
If we can't put you on air,
you'll stream on your own?
Yes.
Why don't we use the media?
Tae Heon!
We just got the results.
Lee Na Ri's blood was on the glass,
and it's from the exact model car that Chairman Seol owned then.
Today, I plan to explain the story behind Board Chairman...
Seol Woo Jae's announcement.
Please show your support so that "Nothing Uncovered"...
can air a special broadcast.
Look at the response.
(Only "Nothing" can cover this.)
(Uncover it for us, Seo Jung Won!)
The views and number of comments are climbing like crazy.
They're asking what time we go live.
What now?
Should I go to the CEO myself?
Follow me.
- Let's go. - Yes, let's.
Take care of it so there's no problem.

They've been in there for so long.
Why aren't they done yet?
Are you praying?
Will you be quiet? You're getting on my nerves.
- Please... - I think that's it. They're here.
Is it a no?
Our old time slot.
We can do a special show then.
- Great. - Let's go.
What you hear tonight will shock you.
- Do your best. - Really?
Yes. What's taking her?
- Jung Won. - Yes.
This is the material. Go through it.
Thanks.
(Hello, this is a Nothing Uncovered special. I'm Seo Jung Won.)
(Gong said he killed Seo Sang Gyeon for filming his hit-and-run.)
("Nothing Uncovered")
Standby. Camera two, roll.
Hello.
This is a Nothing Uncovered special.
I'm Seo Jung Won.
At the Management Awards ceremony,
Mujin Welfare Foundation's board chairman Seol Woo Jae...
confessed to a hit-and-run murder on December 24, 2009.
He also said his father...
buried the body on Mount Mueon.
I'll play a video of the accident...
- that supports this. - The person you have reached...
What's interesting is that someone else...
confessed to the hit-and-run.
That person is Gong, Chairman Seol Pan Ho's secretary...
who is currently in lockup.
Gong has another charge.
He stated he also killed my father,
reporter Seo Sang Gyeon.
Here's a related recording.
Secretary Gong was arrested.
It's for the better.
Your wife is on the way home after watching his interrogation.
Console her.
As I console her,
should I say Secretary Gong didn't kill her father?
Should I say it was you?
What would you get out of doing that?
That statement was also a lie.
So we can't say Chairman Seol is unrelated...
to the hit-and-run or Seo Sang Gyeon's murder.
("Nothing Uncovered")
This is a piece of the headlight from the car...
Seol committed the hit-and-run with on December 24, 2009.
The blood was confirmed to be the victim's,
and it's from the exact model...
that Chairman Seol owned...
back in 2009.
Mr. Seol.
Your arrest warrant...
was issued.
My team...
used the adage that the search for truth...
starts with doubting what we believe to be true...
as a compass to come this far.
We stop here,
but we ask the public to watch and check...
if the investigation is carried out impartially.
("Nothing Uncovered")
Seol Woo Jae was detained.
Arrest Seol Pan Ho!
- Arrest him! - Arrest him!
Reopen the case...
- He's here. - That's him.
Arrest Seol Pan Ho!
- Arrest him! - Arrest him!
Reopen the case and investigate.
- Investigate! - Investigate!
Arrest Seol Pan Ho!
- Arrest him! - Arrest him!
Reopen the case and investigate.
- Investigate! - Investigate!
(Gangwon State Government)
(Chairman Seol Comes in for First Questioning as Witness)
The tiger came in voluntarily.
I wonder where the serpent is.
Governor Mo.
Did you read that Chairman Seol went in for questioning?
Why would you ask me that?
The headlight shard that's a piece of evidence in Lee Na Ri's death.
Your prints were on it too, right?
Step aside.
When Bongto Factory was on fire,
a truck accident blocked the entryway.
How much about that did you know?
You were a prosecutor in Mueon at the time.
I heard someone gave a tip-off...
that you faked the truck accident case report.
That accident delayed first responders,
and all the victims died.
If you actually covered that up,
you must suffer the consequences.
(Gangwon State Government)
(Mo Hyung Taek's Former Staffer Confesses)
("He Manipulated Investigation Records")
What are you looking at?
Why are you staring at me?
Father voluntarily went to the police in the morning.
And about the truck accident that day.
Governor Mo Hyung Taek manipulated the investigation records.
One of his staffers at the time came forward with the info.
- That means... - Father planned everything,
and Mo Hyung Taek acted as his shield...
to ensure the success...
of the resort development project.
So the two of them...
shared many ugly secrets too.
I found a place.
I'm moving in tomorrow.
I'm happy for you.
In my dream,
I saw a bird.
At first, it couldn't fly because of its broken wings.
But then, I guess they healed up. The bird suddenly...
spread its wings...
and flew away.
When I woke up from the dream, I realized...
that the bird I saw...
was you.
I wanted to keep you by my side no matter what,
so I...
broke your wings.
Jung Won.
On the desk in the study,
you'll find the divorce papers.
Go ahead and submit them.
But just know this.
After that incident happened,
I couldn't live as myself...
or as someone else. I felt like...
everything was fake.
The only real thing in my life...
was you.
I should have never met you.
Now,
the miserable memories we share...
certainly outnumber...
our happy memories.
I hope...
you can stop regretting meeting me.
Forget everything...
and be free.
I wish you all the best.
I no longer regret it.
While living together,
we had our happy moments too.
Before I met you, I was all alone,
and it was nice to have a family.
Also,
you gave me this gift...
called our child.
Even if you're no longer my husband,
you'll still be the father of the child.
That will never change.
Once the baby is born,
I'll visit you with the baby.
(Application on the Confirmation of Divorce by Consent)
(Detective Kim Tae Heon)
Hey, Tae Heon.
I want to go on a date with you.
Can we meet now?
- Now? - Why? Do you have plans?
No.
I'm relieved.
I'll text you the address.
All right.
The night breeze feels nice.
It's nice to walk with you like this.
I like this.
It's nice to stare at the fire with you.
I like this.
Do you know...
how many times you've said it today?
I'm going to say it once more.
I like...
Kim Tae Heon...
a lot.
That's what you said to help me recharge.
You told me to stay strong.
I said to myself...
that you...
give me more strength than anything.
When things got rough,
do you know what the worst part was?
It was that I couldn't see the end.
That drives you crazy.
But fortunately,
finally,
I can see the end.
- Jung Won. - I can end my misery...
by ending things with you on good terms.
Tomorrow,
I leave Seoul.
To be exact,
I'm leaving you.
I should've said I had plans.
I shouldn't have come on this date.
Then I'd have left...
without getting to say goodbye.
Considering my situation,
going back to you...
is just wrong.
You don't have to come to me.
I won't ask to date you.
I won't say I like you. That should do.
Just...
let me see you...
from a distance sometimes.
Just don't leave.
I can't even see you on TV now.
Please, Jung Won.
I don't want to...
pretend anymore.
If I'm with you,
I can't pretend I'm fine or pretend we're nothing.
I just can't.
I'll...
be happy.
I'll eat well, sleep well,
and be grateful I wake up each morning.
I'll raise my child well.
I'll be strong.
Okay.
Do as you please.
I'll do what I please.
I'll always think of you.
I'll keep calling you.
And I'll wait for you.
I'll keep loving you.

Can I help you?
Hey, wait.
You can't just walk in.
Wait. You can't film in here.
(CEO Min Bong Jun)
Wait. Don't film in here.
(BJ Tour)
I'm Seo Jung Won with "Reporter Track."
Mr. Min.
Is it true you embezzled millions from your company?
What are you...
The police will be here to carry out a search and seizure.
How about you show some remorse and do the responsible thing?
You got here before us again.
(BJ Tour)
Min Bong Jun, CEO of BJ Tour resigned immediately after...
the police came to carry out a search and seizure.

Mi So.
Hello.
Mi So.
I'm sorry. Mom's late.
- Did you have fun? - Yes.
Kiss.
What pretty flowers.
Mi So. Do you know what these are called?
- Tulip. - Tulip.
Let's go get on a plane.
Okay.
Let's go.
There's nothing to prove Gong Joon Ho...
colluded with Seol Pan Ho in these charges.
So we can't say the defendant's part...
in the conspiracy of murder was proven...
beyond a reasonable doubt.
On the charge of conspiracy of murder,
due to a lack of evidence, defendant Seol Pan Ho...
is therefore found not guilty.
(Judge)
- What the heck? - Darn it.
(Civil Affairs Office)
We're here.
Here you go.
Conspiracy to murder Seo Sang Gyeon. Not guilty.
Darn it.
He pulled all sorts of tricks to drag out the trial.
Our country has a long way to go.
Mo Hyung Taek and the truck accident.
He was found guilty for influencing the investigation.
I guess that's a small relief.
Thanks for updating me right away.
It was just the first hearing. Don't be too disappointed.
I won't.
Father.
You never sent me a reply,
but so far, I'm not yet sick of writing.
Forget being sick of it.
I heard you were found not guilty in your first hearing.
That jolted me awake.
My time goes slowly,
but Mi So's goes so fast.
She learned more words and she's taller too.
Father.
My remaining goal in life...
is to protect my daughter.
I'll shield her from any sadness,
and let her do anything she wants.
I want only one thing from you.
For you to confess the truth.
I'll never give up, Father.
I'll cling to you a countless number of times.
So...
You have a visitor.
Hi, Mi So.
- Mom, look. - Yes.
Mi So, you've grown a lot.
Can I hold Mi So?
Come here, Mi So.
My gosh. You're heavy now.
How have you been?
What is this, Mi So?
It's for you, Dad.
Really?
You brought me a flower?
Thanks.
I heard what happened at my father's first hearing.
I'm really sorry.
I know you did your best.
You're serving your sentence, so only feel guilty for what you did.
You don't need to feel guilty for what he did.
All right, I won't.
This isn't a nice place. Thanks for bringing Mi So here.
I know this must be a hassle for you,
but I can't tell you to stop visiting me, so I'm sorry.
It means a world to me to be able to see Mi So like this.
I hope you understand.
Mi So, when I get out of here,
let's go see some flowers together, holding hands like this.
We'll go to the zoo too.
Let's go to the theme park too, okay? Promise.
Promise. Promise sealed.
(Civil Affairs Office)
Let's go eat something.
(Chief Kang In Han)
- Yes. - I saw your embezzlement report.
Are you at the office now?
I'm actually in Seoul now.
Really? Where are you?
We should meet up if you're here.
You're working while raising your child alone. Isn't it too much?
You said your ex-husband transferred all of his shares to your daughter.
So why are you even working?
I guess I was born to work.
If I were you, I'd spend money left and right and never work.
What's so great about working as a reporter?
Anyway, I've been promoted to director.
Congratulations.
Then I should call you Director Kang from now on.
Since I got promoted, I have to produce visible results right away.
I plan to bring back "Nothing Uncovered."
The show should be forgotten by now,
but the viewers keep requesting that we bring it back.
It's her, isn't it?
See? All the customers here know who you are.
They're whispering among themselves.
- My gosh. - It's her.
- Why is she here? - What's she doing here?
It's about time you moved back to Seoul.
Come back and work on the show.
Don't let someone steal your show from you.
I've been asking you to come back every year,
so this is the third time.
You've turned it down every time. Don't you feel bad?
I'll think about it.
You're responding differently this year.
Stop thinking and just listen to me.
I read the article about the embezzlement scandal.
You're so cool, Seo Jung Won.
I hear it's been raining a lot in Jeju. You're keeping well, right?
I caught a wanted criminal.
I want to lie that I got hurt...
so you'd call me.
It's gotten quite cold. Make sure you bundle up.
Merry Christmas.
Happy New Year.
Hey, Seo Jung Won. You're keeping well, right?
I feel like the new year just began, but January has come to an end.
Time really flies.
I got promoted.
I kept saying it was hot, and flowers are blooming in February.
Spring really is here, Jung Won.
It's such a gloomy day today.
Detective Oh had his fourth child.
I've been reading...
the books you recommended in the past.
(May 2, 2027)
(Detective Kim Tae Heon)
I'm at the camping ground where we came together in the past.
I miss you.
(I'm at the camping ground where we came together in the past.)
(I miss you.)
That jerk!
Drop the knife.
Hey!
Drop the knife.
You're on drugs, aren't you?
Drop the knife.
I told you to drop the knife.
Hey, Jung Won.
You still have that determined look in your eyes!
My gosh. He's right.
You still look like the veteran host of "Nothing Uncovered."
It's nice to hear that nickname. It's been so long.
My goodness. Hey, it has been a while indeed.
Aren't you happy to see us?
Also, you should've come straight to the office.
Is this studio your number one priority?
Look at you trying to pick a fight again.
"I'm happy to see you again." Will you get in trouble...
for being honest or something?
No, I won't get in trouble.
I mean, I am happy. But if I change suddenly,
it's not a good sign.
Also, Chief Kang.
I mean, Director Kang. You saw him too.
He's trying to look all serious when he can't even pull it off.
When you see him,
- you can't help but cringe. - He's right.
Now that he's a director, he always talks in a serious voice.
- I can't take it. - I can't either.
Oh, we have the meeting.
- Let's go. - Let's go. Come on.
Does Detective Kim know that you're in Seoul now?
Once we announce that we're bringing the show back,
he will find out.
Shouldn't you tell him yourself?
I knew this day would come eventually,
but it took longer than I had expected.
What?
It's nothing.
Let's all pour our hearts and souls into it...
and make sure the first episode is a hit.
I hope we can choose an issue people are most interested in these days.
Random killing sprees? Something like that?
Abnormal motive crimes are on the rise.
When did the stabbing spree at Dongsin Station take place?
Right. One moment, please.
My gosh. Another stabbing spree took place in Gwangho-dong.
What?
A detective from Gangha Police's Violent Crimes Unit One...
is critically injured.
Hold on.
Could it be Detective Kim Tae Heon?
(A detective from Violent Crimes Unit 1 is critically injured...)
Hey.
(Emergency Medical Center)
What happened?
- A car accident. - His vitals?
It was 100 over 40.
- What? - He was in a car accident!
Coming through!
Seo Jung Won?
Jung Won.
How...
When did you arrive in Seoul?
I heard a detective...
from Gangha Police's Violent Crimes Unit One...
sustained a critical injury...
while quelling a stabbing spree.
They misreported.
As you can see now,
I'm okay.
A while back, you threatened me...
never to die before you.
I won't die.
I can't die because I can't leave you behind all alone.
Look at me.
Hey, look at me.
Why are you crying?
Don't cry.
I want to give you a hug right now,
but I can't because of this crutch.
Don't cry. I'm okay.
Were you worried about me?
What's wrong? Are you all right?
Hand it over.
There.
Jung Won.
What?
Don't you think things will work out between us?
Gosh, what's wrong?
- Be careful. - I'm fine.
(Thank you for watching "Nothing Uncovered.")
