NINE YEARS AGO
I'm not into this stuff.
Yi-gyeong, can't you go in alone?
Come on, Seon.
Is there anyone in Korea who's successful that doesn't believe in fortunes?
My mom trusts Ms. Park more than what lawyers say.
She says Ms. Park made her rich.
- Rich? - Yes.
So just close your eyes and give it a try, okay?
Who knows? Maybe a big fortune will show up, right?
But I still don't want to. It feels wasteful.
Wasteful?
If you go with me, it's a free pass.
I mean, it's just that I always come with my mom.
This is the first time I'm coming alone, so I'm a bit anxious, okay?
I really have no one else to ask besides you.
Fine.
MS. PARK
What's your relationship?
She's a close friend.
Why?
Hmm...
Sharp and decisive.
The whole house is going dark like it's struck by lightning.
What does that mean?
You won't listen to me anyway, so why did you come back?
You.
I told you not to marry that guy, right?
But you said there was a way out.
The marriage is already done.
The only way to survive
is through the child.
But is that easy?
Even a flickering light
is fragile in the breeze.
What do you mean?
No need to say things that don't make sense.
Just tell me how.
At least use a talisman.
Even the great former lady
can't beat her daughter.
What can I say to you, girl?
Anyway, you only pick up what you want to hear!
Why do you keep on calling me a girl?
I can't believe this.
You really talk so rudely!
- I mean... - Yi-gyeong.
But she's being so rude.
Am I overreacting, Seon?
Hey, let's just go.
I guess you need to hear me.
Pardon?
Your husband splurged recently, right?
What is this?
A building?
I hear it, I hear it...
I hear it...
Handcuffs.
Prison uniform.
Handcuffs?
If you just leave him,
your husband will go to prison.
Well, that person is someone who can live without the law.
Do you want to go with him?
What?
If you don't want to go together...
Use a talisman.
Gosh...
I'm leaving.
Your child is sick, right?
You two
shouldn't have met as a couple, but here we are.
Let's see.
Huh?
It's a prayer bead made from a meteorite.
Make sure to carry it with you.
Your kid will do great,
and your husband will be safe too.
Take it!
Yes.
One million won.
What?
It's your first time, so I gave you a big discount.
Listen carefully.
MAD CONCRETE DREAMS
Mr. Gi?
EPISODE 8 Hey, what are you doing right now?
You can't drink beer at convenience stores these days.
Oh, really?
We have some good liquor at our real estate office.
Let's go.
I saved this drink for a special guest.
- I got it from Kyoto. - Wow.
Okay.
Wow.
Yes.
Whoa!
Hey, what's wrong, Hee-ju?
Oh, I'm sorry.
I suddenly have a fever.
Oh.
Goodness.
Hey, boss.
About Mr. Nam.
Don't trust that guy too much.
That money-grubbing scumbag.
Seriously, he's obsessed with money.
Why?
What is it? Something wrong?
Boss, you're the same.
What about me?
You said you would give me shares.
You promised me a bonus
when you took over Han-maum.
Congratulations!
You really hit the jackpot at 30 billion!
This is all thanks to you, Hee-ju.
So, am I getting a bonus?
Oh, absolutely. Let's talk about it outside.
Oh, right! I missed the timing.
My goodness.
- Okay, I'll take care of it. - Oh.
I was thinking about it.
Really?
Here. This is a gift card.
There are many partner stores,
so it'll be easy to use.
Seriously?
- Well, cheers then. - Oh, sure
- Have more. - Oh my.
You can pour slowly.
To reconstruction.
Let's make it fun and productive
and live with blessings.
Okay!
Hee-ju,
do you know about love?
Huh?
What is it?
Something must have happened with your lady.
No.
What's going on?
You know I have good intuition, right?
Just looking at you, I can tell something's up.
No.
Maybe it's an affair?
Affair?
♪ The wind, the wind, the wind is blowing ♪
- ♪ The wind is blowing... ♪ - Oh, right. The wind.
Who is it?
Is it you or your lady?
Hee-ju.
Listen to me for a second.
Legally, when getting a divorce,
the one who cheated is at fault, right?
That means when dividing assets,
it's advantageous for the person who didn't cheat.
- Yes. - The person who didn't cheat.
I didn't cheat.
But Seon did cheat.
Really? With who?
I can't tell you.
Oh no.
Gosh, I'm the one who got cheated on.
Why do I feel so disadvantaged?
No.
No way.
Our boss is not at a disadvantage.
Our boss hasn't done anything wrong, right?
Just file for divorce already.
That way, whether it's custody or asset division,
it'll all be in your favor.
Hee-ju, you seem to know one thing but not the other.
Love is absolute power.
Love is way above the law.
So the one who loves more is always at a disadvantage.
I...
I love Seon more.
- Oh. - I'm such a fool.
I feel so bad.
Seriously.
It must be so hard for you, boss.
- ♪ Wind, oh wind ♪ - Oh, what do I do?
♪ Wind ♪
Wind...
It looks good.
I want to file a report on Jeon Yi-gyeong,
the heiress of Pyeong-buk Gwan, for domestic violence.
Boss.
- Boss. - Huh?
Boss.
MIN HWAL-SUNG
Boss, I have some major info. Want to make a deal?
Being married for 10 years,
I've endured relentless violence, verbal abuse,
and all kinds of humiliation.
What is this?
Boss, I have some major info. Want to make a deal?
Gosh.
Does she only text when she needs something?
What's this guy doing?
Hee-ju
Do you know about love?
What is it?
Something must have happened with your lady.
Gosh.
I can tell something's going on.
♪ This wind... ♪
- ♪ Wind ♪ - ♪ Wind ♪
Hee-ju.
Hee-ju?
Hee-ju.
What time is it?
Hee-ju.
Wake up.
Hee-ju...
Get in.
What's wrong? Why so tense?
I liked you from the start.
What did you say?
I liked you since the day Su-jong first brought you around.
I hoped you two would break up so badly.
Stop it.
That was a mistake, you know?
Before you two got married,
if I confessed my feelings back then,
would we have gotten married?
I'm leaving.
Legally, when getting a divorce,
The one who cheated is at fault, right?
That means when dividing assets, it's advantageous for the person
- What's this? - who didn't cheat.
Su-jong is preparing to divorce you.
But Seon did cheat.
What?
You're going to get blindsided.
Oh no.
That's Hee-ju from real estate, right?
Just sitting around, you'll become the sucker.
You need to prepare for divorce too.
Su-jong has committed some crimes.
Kidnapping Yi-gyeong,
plus Oh Dong-ki
and my mother-in-law's murder.
We need to get a solid grip on this.
I'll help you.
What are you doing?
We all know each other,
inside and out.
What is this? Let go!
It's okay.
If not me, who else is going to help you?
- Cut it out. - Come here!
I said let go!
My nose!
I need to ask directly.
Hey, Seon, listen to me...
You need to listen to me, Seon!
From this moment, we need to prepare for divorce and gather everything we can!
The proposal for a partnership is still valid, so think it over.
SEON
- Seon? - Hello?
Who are you with right now?
Just a second.
Can you come this way?
Let's talk face-to-face for a bit.
Where are you now?
I'm at Hee-ju's real estate office.
Okay, wait for me.
Okay.
Honey.
She's dead.
Did you kill her?
You think I'm that crazy?
Damn it.
I woke up and she was dead.
I really didn't do anything, I swear.
But seriously,
what's this about dividing assets?
Did you tell Hee-ju you wanted a divorce?
How did you find that out?
Min Hwal-sung told me.
How did that jerk know?
He played me a recording of your voice.
What about my share?
Your share?
What's that about?
We agreed to split it.
Hey, that's because you called the cops and messed it up.
I told you, right?
I didn't call the police. My mother-in-law did.
Oh, this guy is trying to be slick again.
This was all Hwal-sung's idea.
What do you mean?
Wait.
A while ago,
he came to me asking for shares in the Seyoon Building.
He caused a huge scene about it.
But I refused.
So he plotted to divide us
to take over Seyoon Building.
That's the plan he devised.
How is that
related to Hee-ju's death?
Do you think Hee-ju would just hand over that recording for free?
While passing that to him, he must have made
some demands and it led to a fight.
So, while I was asleep, they were talking about the recording and shares
and this mess happened.
This is such a mess.
I mean, still,
would Hwal-sung kill someone?
You don't know that guy?
Don't you remember Hwal-sung was the kidnapper?
I'm divorcing Yi-gyeong.
Both of us will divorce
and take the redevelopment project
for ourselves.
If we plan the operation well,
we can pull it off.
That guy is willing to strangle me
if he just gets his share.
But where is Hee-ju's phone?
What are you doing?
The phone should have the call history.
Honey, come here.
Excuse me!
Is anyone here?
Jeez.
Hold on.
What's going on?
Did they leave?
Yes.
Did they really leave?
Yes, they left.
Honey.
You believe me, right?
What?
You don't trust me?
When you're drunk,
you're oblivious to everything and just fall asleep.
Yes.
Seriously,
after I fell asleep, I don't remember anything.
Huh?
- Huh? - What is it?
Ms. Kim Seon, where are you?
Da-rae is having her Harvard acceptance party. You're coming, right?
- Honey, she got in! - What?
Da-rae got accepted!
- She got in? - Yes, look at this.
Da-rae got accepted?
Did they contact her?
You didn't know?
She got the acceptance email last night.
I'll forward the email they sent to the academy.
The acceptance certificate.
Wow, Da-rae really is amazing.
She's really amazing.
If Da-rae heard the news yesterday, why didn't she say anything?
She didn't say anything? Was she busy?
No, Da-rae was in her room all night.
Then let's do a video call with her.
MY LOVING DAUGHTER
- Why isn't she answering? - She's not answering.
She's really not answering.
Seriously.
I WANT TO BE ALONE
Congratulations, guys!
I knew you all would get accepted.
Let's give a hand!
- Congratulations! - Congratulations!
Congratulations on the acceptance.
Da-rae, I knew you would
be able to do it.
Okay, time for Da-rae and Jung-min, to blow out the candles.
Blow out the candles!
Congratulations!
- Yes! - Congratulations!
I'm so jealous, seriously.
Congratulations!
Da-rae, why aren't you answering the phone?
Let's have some soda.
Are you okay?
- Have some cake too. - I've been wanting some.
I'll slice it for you.
YOU KILLED ME
You killed me, my mother-in-law, and the cafe owner too
What are you thinking about?
JUST ABOUT THE TUITION FEES Hey.
Your parents are property owners.
What do you have to worry about?
The kids are eating delivery food over there. Want to join?
Let's go.
It's unfortunate for Hee-ju, but it can't be helped.
Right.
Huh? What can't be helped?
Let's take care of this.
You coming in at night to drink
must have been caught on the neighborhood CCTV.
That's right.
I got drunk and passed out, then woke up
and she was dead?
I was recently mistaken as being a kidnapper.
I even went through interrogation.
There really is no way out.
Didn't you say Hwal-sung might be the culprit?
If we catch Min Hwal-sung, wouldn't that solve things?
At least we'll get to learn what happened overnight.
We need to find the real culprit.
We need to at least find proof that you didn't do this.
And revealing the true culprit
would be good for Hee-ju too.
Seon.
Thanks for believing in me.
Let's solve this first and then talk.
Da-rae has to go to Harvard.
Okay.
Well,
I have a hiding spot,
but the problem is how do we move her?
What?
Honey, take them off.
What?
Take off Hee-ju's clothes
Oh.
Key.
Okay.
Jeez...
Honey, let's go.
Okay.
But I couldn't find Hee-ju's phone.
It looks like someone took it.
Let's go for now.
But is this the right way?
We should head home first.
We need to be on CCTV.
Two people get out
and leave from behind.
Okay, got it.
Be careful.
Here.
I'll get down.
She's heavy.
- Get in. - Okay.
Let's go.
See if anyone is coming.
There's no one.
Hold on.
Wait, what should we do? Hold on.
- Let's move it closer. - Closer?
- A bit more. - Right.
Move her a bit closer.
More closer.
Just a little more.
Is this okay?
Honey,
- I'm going to change the clothes first. - Okay.
Handcuffs.
Prisoner uniform.
Handcuffs?
If you just leave him,
your husband will go to prison.
Make sure to carry it with you.
Your kid will do great, and your husband will be safe too.
Is this good enough?
I have no idea
what I'm doing right now.
I'm sorry. I'll catch the culprit for sure.
If you don't catch them,
I'm going to report you.
Okay, let's say it was a solo act.
I won't mention that you helped me.
What?
Why am I an accomplice?
I never said you were an accomplice.
Oh, just forget it.
Honey!
I just got a text from Da-rae.
Mom, I know everything about what happened with Aunt Yi-gyeong
What is this?
Wait, how did she know?
I don't know either.
I mean,
she won't answer my texts or calls.
I think I need to go see Da-rae now.
Seon,
you should take a taxi. I need to deal with this car.
- Hurry up and go. - Okay, got it.
Hello, is this the teacher?
I just checked the texts.
Where should I go?
Jeez.
What do you mean you know everything?
- Soda. - Soda?
Drink what's in front of you first. Why are you drinking this?
I KNOW WHAT YOU AND DAD DID
Take your time eating.
MOM
- How many drumsticks did you eat? - Three.
Three?
Look at the bone in front of you.
Yes, here you go.
- Thank you. - Yes.
- Here. - Thank you.
Just take one at a time.
Here you go.
MISSED CALL / SU-JONG
- Okay, you all got them? - Yes.
Okay,
let's all speak in a loud voice.
Yes!
Then, shall we practice a bit?
Yes.
No to forced development and property theft!
We oppose! We oppose!
Stop the destruction of history! We'll protect our buildings!
Protect the buildings! Protect the buildings!
Wow, your voices sound great today.
Please keep it up like this.
Yes, we will!
- Okay, let's go! - Let's go!
We'll do our best.
Put it in your pocket.
Please contact us again.
Sure.
Thank you.
Oh! You came?
Is it okay to film here?
Perfect timing.
- I'm counting on you. - Remember what you promised.
Got it.
- Thanks for your support. - Yes.
Let's take some shots over there.
Okay, everyone.
Are we all gathered?
Oh, yes.
Come closer, please.
Okay, let's gather.
Hello, everyone.
I am Min Hwal-sung,
the son-in-law to Pyeong-buk Gwan,
the historic pride of Sejeong-ro. Nice to meet you.
Yes.
It's truly unfortunate that
Sejeong-ro is currently
suffering from indiscriminate redevelopment
and forced development.
Right now, we are fighting to protect our history and traditions.
This gathering here is a significant moment, right?
That's right!
We must raise our voices together
so that they can hear us.
We must shout out loud.
I'll start the chant,
and I'd appreciate it if you all could follow along.
No to forced development and property theft!
We oppose! We oppose!
Stop the destruction of history!
We'll protect our buildings!
Protect the buildings! Protect the buildings!
The years we've shared
cannot be erased by redevelopment!
Cannot be erased! Cannot be erased!
Please raise your voices louder to protect Pyeong-buk Gwan!
Preserving Pyeong-buk Gwan is the true future
We oppose! We oppose!
Thank you, everyone!
People are starting to notice.
Let's wrap this up.
Yes, congressman, we're almost done.
We oppose! We oppose!
This is Real Capital, whom I mentioned earlier.
Greet him. This is Congressman Yong Su-cheol.
Nice to meet you.
I'm heading out to take care of things.
That protest over there is just...
Yes, I'll take care of it.
Taking care of things around here
in a world where we live together...
- Do it properly, okay? - We oppose! We oppose!
We oppose! We oppose!
No to forced development that steals private property!
We oppose! We oppose!
Stop the destruction of history! We'll protect our buildings!
Protect the buildings! Protect the buildings!
All the years devoted cannot be swallowed by redevelopment!
Cannot be swallowed! Cannot be swallowed!
Shall I take care of this?
No.
It won't look good.
- I'll get going first. - Okay.
Hey, where are you going?
There's a report about an illegal protest coming in.
Why is the armed unit going there?
They're saying they're undermanned,
so the captain told them to go.
Oh, I used to go a lot back then too.
Think of it as a break and go.
Aren't you going with us too?
I am
going to guarantee the freedom to protest.
Why would you say that?
Oh, but this was reported by Mr. Nam's side.
He said it's about a protest regarding urban reconstruction.
Mr. Nam?
Yes.
- I'll be back soon. - Okay.

Oh...
Mr. Gi,
do something about your friend.
What's wrong?
Da-rae!
Da-rae.
You got accepted to the university, right?
Then why haven't you
told me?
Da-rae.
Mom, you knew Dad kidnapped Aunt Yi-gyeong, right?
What?
So you knew.
You had an affair with Uncle Hwal-sung too.
Hello, ma'am. Nice to meet you.
I'm Da-rae's friend, Ho-jun.
Oh, right.
You can go ahead.
You want us to go?
Let's go.
Da-rae,
what do you mean?
Where did you hear that?
I know everything.
That's not it. It's a misunderstanding.
What misunderstanding?
I thought you two were acting strange lately.
Let's talk, okay?
I'm at a party with my friends. Don't ruin my mood.
Da-rae.
I'm really disappointed in you, Mom.
I can't bear to see your face.
Da-rae.
No to forced development and property theft!
We oppose! We oppose!
Stop the destruction of history! We'll protect our buildings!
Protect the buildings! Protect the buildings!
What is this?
- Hey, what are you doing? - What's going on?
What are you doing?
What is this?
We're preserving history and tradition.
This is ridiculous.
- Come here. - Hey!
What are you doing?
Let's protect Pyeong-buk Gwan, everyone!
Let's protect it!
Hey, get over here.
- Come on! - Hey, let go of me.
It's okay.
Let's take a ten-minute break.
- Will you be okay? - I'll be fine.
Okay.
Ten-minute break.
Okay, let's take a ten-minute break.
Let's keep the mood up, everyone.
It's fine.
Hey, why aren't you answering your phone?
Am I your secretary?
I don't have to answer it.
What were you doing last night?
Why do you ask that?
I was in Saudi Arabia, you fool.
Did you meet Seon this morning?
Did you
receive that recording
directly from Hee-ju?
Feeling a little guilty, you hypocrite?
Hey, you're out there doing other things,
so stop playing the victim with me and Seon, okay?
Seriously!
Don't be talking nonsense...
Did you do that to Hee-ju?
Do what?
I mean, did you do that to Hee-ju?
What are you saying?
Hey, you're colluding with Nam Sang-ho.
and trying to take over Pyeong-buk Gwan. You think I don't know that?
But what should we do about this?
Pyeong-buk Gwan isn't Yi-gyeong's anymore.
What are you talking about now?
I worked with Attorney Yang
and fixed all the documents.
To sell that, my signature is needed.
Goodness.
Wait a minute.
Does Yi-gyeong know about this?
Mind your own business.
Move aside.
Okay, everyone.
Let's head inside and continue.
Okay, let's go inside.
Let's go inside.
Let's head inside.
Let's go inside.
Hey, Hwal-sung.
What?
Good job. Come in one by one.
Yi-gyeong is pregnant.
Yes, come on in.
What?
You're a dad now.
Good job, ma'am.
Da-rae.
Today
was really fun.
I learned a little bit, so that I could talk to you.
Let's hang out again next time.
Da-rae,
pick something better, okay?
AUNTIE, CAN I MEET YOU?
Give this a listen.
Bring him.
Just like what happened to me.
Auntie, can I meet you? I have something to say
Let's go together.
Okay, suit yourself.
I'm really disappointed in you, Mom.
I can't bear to see your face.
I'M MEETING AUNT YI-GYEONG
I'm going to tell her everything and ask for forgiveness
We're meeting at her mom's columbarium, so you should come too
I hope you apologize to Aunt Yi-gyeong too
Da-rae.
THE LATE JEON YANG-JA
You must be surprised I wanted you to come here.
I come here often since my mom passed.
Da-rae,
did you know my mom well?
I've met her a few times...
Just seeing her was scary, right?
It's okay.
Even as her daughter, I was scared too.
I was scared
and also really hated her too.
All she cared about was money
and controlled my life however she wanted.
It sounds like I'm bad-mouthing my mom, right?
But still... you come here
because you miss her, right?
Yes.
When she was alive,
I hated her so much.
But strangely, I miss her.
I've realized something.
Even my amazing mom
was just an imperfect and clumsy person as a mom.
She loved me in her own way,
but I guess it didn't click for me.
Everyone has their limits.
A family is a relationship
that must accept those limits.
I realized that now.
How about you, Da-rae?
Is everything okay with your mom and dad?
I have something to tell you.
I want to apologize on behalf of my mom and dad.
Why are you apologizing for them?
It's true that Mom and Dad
made mistakes, but it wasn't intentional.
They both feel sorry for you.
You say they're sorry?
That's so easy.
You act like trash and just say you're sorry.
Da-rae,
don't you want to live with me?
You know what your parents did.
Can you really live with them?
I have no family now too.
It's basically the same for both of us.
Let's just be family together.
I'll cover your tuition fees, okay?
You just have to decide.
Just let go of your mom and dad.
No... I can't. How can I do that?
You said family is about accepting those limits
I figured as much.
That means everything happening from now on,
you're also responsible for it too.
SEON
The phone is currently unable to answer...
Yes?
Where are you now?
I met with Hwal-sung.
He seems completely clueless about it...
That's not the issue.
But seriously, this guy has lied so much.
How can I believe what he says?
I think Da-rae's been kidnapped.
What?
Da-rae...
I think Da-rae's been kidnapped!
What? Da-rae is what?
I'm heading to the police station now,
so hurry and come, okay?
Da-rae.
You did well.
SPECIAL THANKS TO ACTOR KIM SEUNG-WOOK
MAD CONCRETE DREAMS
Was she really kidnapped?
You don't think Yi-gyeong did it, do you?
There's nothing left to break.
I'm already at rock bottom.
As broken as I've been,
your mom and dad need to be broken too.
Honey, Da-rae knows everything now.
Sir, how old is your child?
Still in the womb.
Do you have newborn supplies too?
Who are you?
Why are you doing this to me?
No!
Hwal-sung, you need to die today.
I admit to killing Min Hwal-sung, Jeon Yi-gyeong's husband,
and disposing of the body.
