Hello?

Writer Baek Hee-soo allegedly

plagiarized a book before in 2005,

Do we still have a writer

with a conscious left in Korea?

Jung Eun-gab reports,

Best-selling book, 'Abyss',

is being accused of plagiarism,

It supposedly copied 'Tragedy's End',

which was published in 1992,

The book wasn 't a bestseller,

But those who have read it claim

that it's been plagiarized,

It's exactly the same,

A villa by the lake

and the song are the same,

The main character's name

and even the ending are the same,

Wait a Iittle more!

How did this happen?

I need to figure things out

before I have a press conference!

Are you trying to kill me?

Why are you attacking me? Hello?

You son of a b*tch!

Let me ask you myself.

You really haven't read that book?

It could've been stuck

in your shelf!

I didn't!

Have you seen the news?

Did you read the article?

Everything's over!

Something's wrong.

There's been a misunderstanding!

I didn't plagiarize it!

My daughter Yeun-hee knows!

Stop it with the Yeun-hee thing!

Stop it. She's innocent.

Anyway, Iet's not see each other again.

Yeun-hee!

What happened?

Yeun-hee, where are you?

Are you trying to kill me?

You saw that book and told me,

didn't you?

Where are you Yeun-hee?

Answer me!

Yeun-hee!

Open the door!

Give Yeun-hee back to me!

How could you take her away

without telling me?

How could you!

Open the door!

I won't Iet this slide!

Stop it!

Stop what?

Who told you to take my daughter?

Yeun-hee, where are you?

I heard about the book.

Stop blaming it on Yeun-hee.

I never plagiarized anything.

Yeun-hee knows it!

Bring Yeun-hee here!

Bring Yeun-hee here!

PIease stop it!

It's hard to face the truth

when it's hard to deal with.

Because we can't endure the pain.

So we deny and distort the truth.

We opt to choose our belief

rather than the painful reality.

Then many problems could be solved.

Whose idea was it to go there?

AIthough he recommended it,

I also needed a change.

In here it Iooks Iike

your editor had recommended it.

Is that important?

Do you sleep well?

Why can't you?

Let's get straight to the point.

Fine.

Do you still believe

that Yeun-hee told you?

Why do you repeat the same question?

Where is Yeun-hee now?

Why should I answer that question?

Answer me!

Where is Yeun-hee?

I don't want to.

Answer me!

Yeun-hee is...

I never read that book,

I swear, Are you listening?

Hello?

Do you remember

Yeun-hee's accident?

Mistake?

I never make a mistake!

How could you say that to me?

I stole that story?

Do you think so, too?

You don't know?

You don't get what I'm saying?

The accident occurred

in the bathtub, Remember?

Be quiet!

Your daughter is very pretty.

What are you doing?

Yeun-hee, I'm having a hard time.

Tell me more about your friend.

Don't go out without telling me.

It's dangerous.

Yeun-hee.

Yeun-hee...

Does she believe

that Yeun-hee is alive?

She's making excuses.

Such as, "I didn't plagiarize."

"I heard it from my daughter."

She must've said it

often in her condition.

She never mentioned

Yeun-hee during that time?

'Abyss' was plagiarized

Writer Baek Hee-soo plagiarized

her new book, 'Abyss'

Can we still allow

plagiarism in Korea?

Out Kim Young-joon, get out!

Get your damn boss on the phone!

Do I have time to talk to you,

you bastard!

Her dead daughter told her the story?

Baek Hee-soo, a patient?

Who is Choi Soo-jin?

You keep asking me

the same question.

Choi Soo-jin disappeared in 1988.

The accident occurred at that villa.

Why do you think that?

I know it's hard

foryou to believe me.

So someone killed Choi Soo-jin

while the villa was being repaired.

And someone buried her there.

It's the same story in your novel.

I swear that

something happened in there.

And I heard it through Yeun-hee.

Why can't you trust me?

I never read that book!

What do you think?

She's been saying the

same thing the Iast few days.

So do you think the story in

that book is real?

If it's real,

then the plagiarism is ungrounded.

But the problem is the plagiarism.

The fear of not being able to

write anymore has blinded her.

I met your editor.

They can't suffer anymore damages

because of this case.

Do you trust me?

Because they promoted this,

they've suffered some heavy blows.

They put the company up for sale.

AII that's Ieft is

for you to admit it.

Yeun-hee was there.

Do you even know

Yeun-hee's birthday?

What color or food that she Iikes?

Stop this.

When did you ever pay

attention to Yeun-hee?

It's true.

Don't involve Yeun-hee

into this nonsense.

PIease.

But what about my friend?

Tragedy's End

This book is based on

my wife's encounter with a girl,

- July, 1999,

From the Bates Villa,

Who is it?

Does Lee Gab-jae Iive here?

Lee Gab-jae?

He died pitifully.

It's been over ten years.

A run-down hospital had called me.

There was no funeral service.

He Ieft his wife and

went around writing.

His wife suffered terribly.

He's a rotten man.

Know what's funny?

Even when his wife called,

saying that she was sick,

Choi Soo-jin disappears

Her murder is concealed

Even when his wife called,

saying that she was sick,

he didn't answer and

didn't come when she passed away.

After months have passed,

he brings that book.

He said that he was

with his dead wife.

It's insane.

Here you go.

We can never forgive him.

Who could we when he used

his dead wife to sell his book?
