Tower of Babel
What is it that you want to hear?
Where were you at the time of Tae Min Ho's death?
Are you suspecting me right now?
You said that Han Jeong Won and Tae Min Ho didn't have a good relationship.
The Young Master is not as good of a man as he portrayed himself to be.
Woo Hyeok, I'm okay.
Divorce Agreement
- Are you crazy? - Na Yeong Eun
The household is a difficult one to live in with a sober mind.
I asked you to catch the culprit. How come you suspect the family?
Are you looking down on me?
The prosecution called her separately.
What time did you get home?
Han Jeong Won, please answer.
Although she's hiding her alibi, I don't feel she is the culprit at all.
Your husband... did you love him?
Do you believe in love, Prosecutor?
"Geosan Electronics President Murdered."
Did you, who were so great, ever think a day like this would come?
From now, a lot of interesting things will happen.
If you committed a sin...
you have to pay for your sin.
Wouldn't ending it like this be too easy?
You must wake up
and pay the proper price
for your sins.
Episode 4
- Yes, Doctor Park. - Yes!
The results of the DNA test of the skin sample
which we obtained from the fingernail of Tae Min Ho's corpse have come out.
Have you determined the identity?
About that...
it's a little sensitive.
Hey, you don't need to pay a funeral donation, when you make only a little.
Even though they're poor, they still have pride.
You damn...
Instead of snooping around with an excuse of investigating, eat in the corner and go.
No, it's more like you're going with us.
What?
Cuff him.
- What are you doing?
Tae Soo Ho, you are under exigent arrest on suspicion of murdering Tae Min Ho.
You have the right to consult an attorney and the right to
refuse to answer any question which may incriminate you.
Do you have proof? I asked if you have proof!
Among the skin samples that were under Tae Min Ho's fingernails,
your DNA was discovered.
Stop him!
- Hyungnim, are you okay? - Go after him!
Stop, you bastard!
Bastard.
Stay still!
Breaking News! In the case of Tae Min Ho, who
was murdered at his company on the last 27th,
Tae Soo Ho, president of Geosan Holdings, who is the older brother
of Tae Min Ho, president of Geosan Electronics,...
Turn it off. - Has been arrested without a warrant.
Let me state once again...
Turn toward the West District Prosecutor’s office.
Even so, we won't be able to see him. Let's go home for now.
It's me, Director.
Hey. Uncuff me.
Uncuff me, I said!
Hey. Put the chair back to its place.
This young little punk, being so rude since earlier!
What, you bastard?
Detective Lee!
It seems he has a bad feeling because his senior was hurt. Please understand him.
The heck are you... Why should I understand a bastard like that?
Aren't you curious about how he's doing? That injured detective?
I can just reach a settlement on something like that. I told you to uncuff me!
There's more than enough reason for you to be wearing those, so just sit down.
You were in a fight recently, weren't you?
I don't know, you bastard.
What are you doing?!
You did your makeup very well.
You can't see a single trace of the bruise.
This happened while you were fighting with your brother, didn't it?
Madame.
Let me see my child.
Ah, you must be very worried right now, but there is still a proper procedure...
Department Head, did the prosecution follow proper procedure
when they carried out an arrest without a warrant?
Attorney Tae...
Can you establish the requirements for the arrest and flight risk?
No... No, well, that's...
But still, meeting him is...
Yes, Director? Yes. Yes, sir.
There were traces of an altercation on Tae Min Ho before his death.
Your skin was found under his fingernails.
And your face just happens to be bruised.
On the day of the incident, from the time you got out
of the hospital until two o'clock in the morning,
where were you and what were you doing?
- Soo Ho. - Mom!
You are not allowed in here.
Prosecutor Cha, come see me.
Come out.
Come out, I said.
Prosecutor Cha, uncuff him.
Uncuff him.
Prosector Cha.
I said uncuff him.
Why did you just get here? I was having such a hard time!
Soo Ho.
What?
You trust me, right?
Of course.
Then you have to listen closely to what I say from now on.
I will take care if it. So you just stay quiet.
Don't say a thing. Don't say a single word all the way to the end.
When do I go home?
That's right. If you're going to go home, you have
to listen to what I say. You can do it, right?
Can't you say that you're alright, even if it's just empty words?
Making people feel uncomfortable...
I'm fine.
This little punk!
Is this what you said that I didn't have to be concerned about?
Oppa is definitely not the one who did it.
He's got a lot of deficits, but he isn't the type of person to do that.
Hatred
Tower of Babel
Clean this up.
What are you doing right now?
This is an order from the higher ups.
- From who? - Chief Madam. I'm sorry.
Today, the prosecution targeted a bereaved relative
who was mourning the loss of a family member
as a criminal suspect.
The prosecutor is doing its typical fill in
with what will fit the result investigation.
While our Geosan searches for our tarnished honor, in protest,
until the real culprit who murdered Tae Min Ho is found,
we will postpone his funeral indefinitely.
What is he saying?
Then are you saying that
you won't cooperate with the prosecution?
What's your proof for your conclusion?
Please answer me. Answer me!
- Why are you doing that? - Please answer!
Shouldn't you not be drinking this?
If I don't drink on a day like this, when would I drink?
- Now I can taste it. - You'll irritate the wound.
This is nothing. I got stabbed and met the maker before.
Back then, I couldn't even see hide nor hair of the Chief
of Police. But earlier, the Police Director came to see me.
- Really? - Even if it's just empty words,
shouldn't he ask me if I'm hurt at the very least?
He just told me to come to a settlement with Tae Soo Ho and then left!
So crappy...
Let's be born chaebol in our next life.
- What's wrong with you these days? - What?
You seem to be sad and then seem to be really happy.
It feels like something about you has changed these days.
It's because puberty has hit me late.
Come in.
You drank way too much!
Oppa, I'm not drunk. Shall we have another drink?
How much is that?
You can't afford this even if you die and come back to life.
- How much is it? - Do you want it all?
- Then take it. - What?
I'm saying that I'm giving it to you. I'm telling you to take it.
Why?
Because today is a good day.
If you don't take it by the time I count to ten, then I take it back.
- One. - Really?
Two. Three. Four.
What the heck? Noona!
What are you doing? Aren't you going to run away?
- I think the police are on their way. - Man.
A crazy wench.
Your call cannot be connected. You will be...

Personal Information Tae Min Ho
Personal Information Tae Soo Ho
Are you in a lot of pain?
My heart aches. My feelings.
I should have just caught that bastard and hit him one good time.
Who, my wife?
Wait, weren't you feeling down because of Tae Soo Ho?
Not that.
While I was sleeping yesterday, I woke up suddenly because I had this bad feeling.
My wife was looking closely at my injury and then just scoffed.
What? She laughed instead of crying?
Then I asked her if she was crazy or something.
Without me knowing it, she had gotten three more accidental injury insurance policies.
Three?
She stopped me whlie I was leaving for work in the morning.
She asked me to apply for a few more life insurance policies, too.
I've got the willies.
Kid, I am scared..
- This Jeong Chang Min case... - Eh, what are you doing?
You're here?
Hey you drifters, what are you doing in someone else's office...
Aigoo, goodness. Your face was already so ugly, and now it's got a scar.
What's wrong with having a scar? I'm already married.
Where is this old bachelor's smell coming from?
You got flies swarm around your mouth.
This hyung is trying to fight this early in the morning...
Hey, hey! Hyungnim, be big-hearted and understand him.
Oh, you must be the newbie.
Thanks, I am Lee Gi Hyeok of Mapo Station.
Glad to meet you. I am Jo Deok Bae.
Oh, I heard that a new hire was coming in.
Your face is so bright!
- I hear that a lot. - Don't smile. He'll start liking you.
Then, it's going to cause a ruckus.
Is everyone here?
- Yes, yes. - You're here?
In order to investigate the case efficiently,
I'll delegate the work between the detective
team and the prosecution team as of today.
The prosecution team led by Section Chief Oh will
be in charge of investigating the helicopter case.
Yes.
Detective Team, focus on Tae Min Ho's murder.
Yes.
Please check his movement and the surroundings again.
Clearly specify the details of the suspect Tae Soo Ho's alibi.
Yeah.
Please exchange the information you had prior to delegation.
From now on, any new information collected will be shared systematically.
- Yes, sir. - Understood, sir!
It will be difficult, but let's start again from the beginning.
List of items found from helicoptor crash
Is this everything?
Luckily there was no explosion. But the current was
so speedy that many of items were washed away.
Ah, seriously.
Send me this by email.
He is so playful. Seriously.
Is there any new findings?
It feels like we're in black, (not being able to see at all).
I'm not sure what this is...
What?
As soon as... you still...
Are you going to continue to assert the right to be silent?
It's because I'm tired.
Do as you wish, because the alibi is being investigated.
Because you're investigating, do you have to repeat it? Are you a parrot?
Ah. For your chicken-feed-like salary, you have to earn a living by doing that?
That's important, I earn my living. Because a lot of
people are scolded, being incapable of earning a living.
Bastard!
Does that make you feel better?
Medical Examiner's Report
Take it away.
I'm curious. No matter how much you hated him
and even coveted the chairman's position,
how could you kill your brother like that without any hesitation?
You're writing a novel.
Did you know? The answer is always hidden in the question.
If you and Tae Min Ho aren't brothers, it could be possible.
What nonsense are you spewing?
Tim Min Ho's blood type is O.
You're blood type B.
Your parents' blood types are O and AB. (O and AB parents cannot produce an 0 child)
In conclusion, you and Tae Min Ho are not brothers.
I never knew that.
Your family's sleazy history is not want I want to know.
Did you kill him because he was not your real brother?
Because you didn't want him to take Geosan away?
No! I said I didn't.
- Min Ho that bastard... - President! You don't need to answer.
- That bastard... - President!
Was the devil! He was a devil who deserved to be shredded into pieces to death.
1982
My mother was always warm, until he came.
Dad's here!
I could see who made it hard for my mother.
The strange thing is...
He never once cried. He only smiled, even if he was starved for a few days.
As though he knew it was pointless to cry.
In order to survive, it was an excellent choice.
If he were to cry, I might have killed him.
Da Mi.
Sometimes there would even be a day when my mother was happy.
It was a day when Dad didn't come home.
Is it yummy? Do you want more?
I saw it.
He is a devil to his core.
Was it because you were afraid?
That Tae Min Ho would be the heir?
The day that he died, you're right that we fought.
But it's not what you think.
After I got discharged from the hospital, I went
to the club at the hotel. He was there too.
We scuffled over a trivial thing. That's everything.
Prosecutor, would you come out for a while?
- It was found in the remaining? - Yes.
Prosecutor, we found a bottle of eyedrops in the helicopter debris.
Phosphoripase A2 and histamine were detected.
Speak simply.
In the eyedrops the substance which caused the pilot to go into
anaphylactic shock (a severe allergic reaction ) was found.
The eyedrops contains completely different ingredients from ordinary eyedrops.
The person responsible knew the pilot's allergy.
Speaking of that...
The fingerprints of the pilot's wife Jo Seong Hui were found on the case.
Determine her whereabouts.
Hello?
Quickly escape. The prosecution got wind of it.
There isn't much time.
- Run! - Run.
Investigator, she seems to leave not long ago.
Deok Bae! Deok Bae! Here.
I think we lost her.
Yes, that's right.
Tae Soo Ho and Tae Min Ho had a fight in the VIP lounge that day.
- Did you secure the CCTV footage? - I'm in the middle of copying the file.
There are a lot of witnesses but I think it's going to be hard to get statements.
It's a membership club with very elite people.
- Come back. - I will.
It seems she was a shop-aholic.
She was addicted to everything from luxury brands to plastic surgery.
She killed her husband because of shopping?
She was in deep debt. Just before her husband died,
she obtained several insurance policies on his life.
From his retirement funds, he helped to pay off her debts several times.
It looks like he reached the limit.
Still, how could she do that to her husband?
Whether you're a mouse or a man, when you're cornered, your imagination expands.
Until we determine her whereabouts, let's not draw any conclusion.
Apply for a travel ban and be careful that there are no leaks to the media.
As mentioned before, on the day of the incident
at the GM Hotel Members Club, Tae Min Ho and Tae Soo Ho had a fight.
If you look at the video...
Watch.
I think maybe at this time Tae Soo Ho's skin got under Tae Min Ho's fingernail.
Then, it might be that Tae Soo Ho is really not the perpetrator.
Right. He got scratched as I see it.
Even so, we still haven't figured out Tae Soo Ho's alibi.
In a warrantless arrest case, we don't have much more time left. Until then...
Prosecutor, I have to say something.
Both the hotel and the cable company are not
cooperating as if they all agreed to do so.
- That was to be expected. - Isn't that too much?
Keep fighting the good fight.
I told you to not let Soo Ho say anything.
I despise incompetent and money-grubbing trash.
You're not those, are you?
Good job.
Get me water.
Yes, Madame.
Under the circumstances, we can't continue the funeral.
I will leave home for the time being.
You...
don't really think Soo Ho is the culprit, do you?
If you leave, what will other people think?
In a time like this, the family should be united.
Have I
ever been a part of this family?
I think that I was the lowest form of life to the persons in this household.
It was the same for Min Ho.
How much do you know?
Is that important?
I just don't want to be in this house anymore.
Jeong Won.
Are you going somewhere?
I'm going to stay outside for the time being.
Do you have a place to live? If you are okay with it, you can stay with me.
If Mother-in-law knows, it would be awkward for you.
I will go to a friend's house.
How long will it be?
Jeong Won. You don't think that Oppa is the culprit, do you?
I don't.
Don't worry. Somehow the culprit will be revealed.
Yes. Then, I'm leaving.
Thank you.
Is this all you got after being a chaebol's daughter-in-law for seven years?
You should've brought out a decent amount of alimony.
Fine. At least you managed to free yourself from it.
Let's go. Get in.
Let's go to somewhere far away. Get in.
Should I close the store so we can have a drink?
Shall we go clubbing?
Should we?
We shouldn't. At a time like this,
I miss when you weren't well known.
Don't put yourself out for me. I'm fine.
You wench, it's because I'm upset.
I checked the picture but it's not him.
Okay. Please keep looking for him.
Are you all right?
I'm sorry that everyone is worrying about me.
Go upstairs. Go. You should rest.
Soo Ho has been branded as a murderer,
and when she leaves the house, what are people thinking?
Will she feel at ease?
She is uncomfortable staying at home.
What do you mean?
Are you saying she left the house because So Ho is the culprit?
You, do you also believe that?
Mom.
But we need to prove that prosecutor's evidence
has nothing to do with the murder case.
What evidence? Why are you talking about evidence like Cha Woo Hyeok?
He is a prosecutor. He is doing his job.
Get your head on straight, Tae Yoo Ra.
Cha Woo Hyeok is just a hunting dog I brought to protect the family.
Now he's a crazy dog who snapped his leash and is running wild.
I've never thought of him that way.
I'm going.
Issuance of a warrant was refused.
Is that so?
Did you expect that?
To a certain extent.
We haven't been able to disprove Tae Soo Ho's alibi.
Even so...
Lighten up. It's just beginning. If you lose your
fighting spirit at the start, you won't last.
Geosan will make its moves systematically.
Can you defeat it?
The bigger and stronger a castle it is, the more large critical chinks it will have.
We will find them gradually. Together.
Oh, Tae Soo Ho is coming.
How are you feeling now?
The client's official position will be stated through the Geosan Legal Team.
That's it.
I
Did not kill my brother.
I
Loved Min Ho more than anyone else.
Before he was my younger brother,
he was
my mentor
as well as my soulmate.
I miss Min Ho so much.
Please step aside.
Step aside.
Did you bring it? Give it to me.
The media are following.
Give it to me, SOB!
- What do you think? - Pardon?
How was my acting?
Oh, yes. That...
What do you really think about my acting?
Are you crying?
Are you laughing?
There's nothing still.
Is that so?
Je Il. I'll call you back.
Jeong Won.
All right.
I
Didn't kill
my brother.
I loved Min Ho
more than anyone.
Before he was my younger brother
Mom. - he was my soulmate...
I told you I would take care of everything.
You keep making it difficult like that.
I didn't say anything.
I told you I would make Geosan yours if you would just stay still.
Do realize what you have done?
Are you saying I killed Min Ho?
Soo Ho,
I, I, I... didn't say anything to protect you.
But why are you treating me like this. Why? WHY?
Why?
Seonbae.
Can we talk?
It's wrapped up well.
Nothing has been ended yet.
Jeong Won, then Oppa. Is it my turn?
It was an exceptional case for an arrest warrant application
to be denied. It would be impossible if it weren't Geosan.
It could be. I acknowledge that.
Are you going to go until the end against such Geosan?
I didn't even begin yet.
Even if you didn't act like this, it's already been hard for me.
Can you just stop? I don't know what your intention is in acting this way.
Do you really want me to act in a way Geosan wants?
Woo Hyeok.
Go safely.
3 Years Ago
Defense Counsel
I can't believe he is really a prosecutor.
Under the situation of constantly being beaten
by her husband, because no one helped her
she had no choice but to make an extreme decision.
We should not consider this murder case as due to a deviation from her normal self,
But we should consider that this murder happened
because of a failure in a system that couldn't protect the weak in society.
Your Honor, objection.
Prosecutor, go ahead.
Defense Counsel, do you have some objective evidence
that shows her husband was constantly beating her?
According to evidence item number 14, she had an
injury which required two weeks to recover from...
Your Honor, counsel asserts the defendant got constant beatings
only with one medical report which did not confirm the cause.
Objection, your honor.
Denied. Please continue.
The prosecutor fully agrees with counsel that society should protect the weak.
However, as a member of the legal profession,
I am afraid that asking for an extenuation,
based only on a medical report that can't prove cause objectively,
might be a fraud upon the strict and impartial judicial system.
Counsel should show evidence that can prove the
truth rationally, before appealing to emotions.
Sustained.
Counsel, please submit objective evidence
which substantiates the defendant's injuries.
I heard about you a lot. Nice to meet you.
I heard a proper sword wielder came to the Western District Prosecutor's office.
Touche. Felled in one swoosh.
This is a list of money deposited by unspecified men before the victim died.
The suspect was constantly forced to prostitute by her husband.
Why didn't she tell me about it?
I guess it's because of her kid.
The suspect has a kid who is left in her country.
I think she chose to be a murderer instead of her truth being revealed.
Sometimes, a truth is crueler than a lie.
Why do you give me this?.
Because of your sympathy to the suspect?
No. Even if her husband died, his sin would not disappear.
Did you have a good sleep?
I had a really good sleep in a long time.
Aren't you going to go to work?
I resigned.
I'm considering whether I should be a farmer in some countryside for my living.
Would you like to go with me?
You wiill catch cold.
I haven't been out lately, so it feels good.
Open the bag in there.
You are touched, aren't you?
It's tacky.
Here.
It's good.
I need water.
Do you want me tell you how to hit a bullseye?
Excuse me?
Turn around and throw it.
It's a scientific method. Give it a try.
Turn around and throw it.
Here.
Throw it.
One.
- Two. - Two.
Three!
One more time.
One. Two.
Three!
What theory is this?
It's a theory of Daijaenglagu. I'll explain it later.
Throw it again.
This is amazing.
One, two, three!
You got me.
You are still paying me, right?
Of course.
This is a gift.
Thank you.
Three.
Rest in peace, Mother: Kwon Ji Eun Rest in peace Father: Cha Seong Hoon
Are you asleep?
No.
But what is the theory of daijaenglagu you talked about earlier?
I see you really don't know.
What is it?
Say it backward.
Backward?
Lagumidaja...
Full of sh♪t?
Seriously...
I thank you
for coming with me.
I wanted to show you to my parents.
Do you think they are pleased?
Probably.
A lot.
Are you asleep?
Yes, I am.
Are you really asleep?
I am asleep, really.
Really, really?
Yes, really, really.
What would you do if I am not asleep?
What else can you do in a temple except bow?
Good night.
Jeong Won, too. Sleep well.
I must've dozed off.
Go back to sleep.
Where are we?
Hapjeong-dong.
Then would you drop me off at Dongki Hotel?
I am supposed to meet up with Mi Seon.
I'll wait for you.
No, it could take some time.
I'll come to your house later.
Hospital
Yes.
This is Jeong's OBGYN caring for Ms. Han Jeong Won.
Yes.
Are you her guardian?
Yes.
She has an appointment today, but didn't show up.
Where are you located?
Welcome.
Did Ms. Han Jeong Won show up?
She's with the doctor right now. Are you her guardian?
Yes.
You can go in that way.
It's three month now, so you'll feel much more
comfortable going into the second trimester.
Breathe nice and easy.
The sound of the heartbeat is very loud, isn't it?
The baby is healthy.
No one in this family wants to perpetuate my dirty blood.
What do I need to do to be happy with Woo Hyeok?
Go find Jeong Won and bring her home.
In order to stabilize Geosan, I would like to turn over
management to President Tae Soo Ho as soon as possible.
Tae Soo Ho, I am arresting you without a warrant for the murder of Tae Min Ho.
You really want to arrest me that much?
Where is it? Where?
USB?
It's solid evidence that Soo Ho killed my brother-in-law.
Just what the hell are you people?
You call yourself human?
Catch him!
You better hope that nothing happens to my Soo Ho.
