if I can get in to it by then.

There's plenty of time.

Don't worry, Kyung-ran!

...Yeah,

it'll fit by then, right?

Of course. Aunt Kyung-ran?

After you and

Hyun-woo get married...

Why, are you gonna miss me?

No, who's Sarah gonna marry?

...You know, Auntie's fist is craving

for its next target.

Get out while you can.

Can't you tell me, just this one

last time? Come on, please?

First or last, my answer's no.

Hello? Oh, Hyun-woo!

- What's the occasion,

- Hello?

- you calling me first? Is class over?

- How are you?

Yoon-hye Song,

go back to your room.

Why?

I'm gonna talk to Hyun-woo too.

Didn't you hear me?

Quickly!

Hurry up and

close the door...

I see

Hello?

Mi-ju, open your eyes.

Mi-ju!

Honey, honey!

Why...?

What's wrong...?

I just... Didn't you call out

my name in your sleep?

What?

Never mind, it's nothing.

Sunny,

Sunny!

...Please get rid of

it before the children see.

Hey sis, it's me.

Open the door. Yoon-jin!

Sis!

Open the door!

Yoon-jin, is it fun?

Can I try it once?

Let me try it for a second.

Come on, you've had it all

to yourself, didn't you?

I'll only try it a little.

Ahhh! ...Fine, I won't.

That's so cheap.

You can have it.

Aunt... Aunt Kyung-ran!

What happen?

Hello?

Mom, Mom!

Yoon-hye?

Why, what's wrong?

Aunt... Aunt Kyung-ran,

there's something wrong with her.

Mommy, I'm scared.

Kyung-ran!

I'll talk with Hyun-woo!

Let's not make any decisions before

you talk with him in person,

okay?

Kyung-ran!

Yoon-jin,

don't be scared.

It's okay, it's okay.

Hey, Kyung-ran!

First, just open the door.

let's sit down and talk about this.

No, it's all over.

It's over!

Just leave me alone!

Please!

Honey, what should we do?

...Let's leave her alone for now.

She'll be better in the morning!

Mi-ju!

Mom, Mom!

Hyun-woo! I understand.

You're in a foreign country

by yourself,

you must feel lonely and

want to lean on somebody,

so I think it's all okay.

I forgive you,

so pick up the phone.

Please? Come on.

You wanna see me go crazy?

Hey! Pick up the damn phone.

Hyun-woo? Is that you?

Please, just say something.

Hello?

Hello? Hello?

Hello, Hyun-woo...

Kyung-ran!

Kyung-ran...

Yoon-jin!

Fortunately,

she doesn't seem

to feel any stress

from emotional damages.

However, if she's exposed to

an environment that

causes her to bring back

that past situation,

the dormant stress

can be expressed outwardly.

Mommy must take care her

specially.

Prosecutor Kim.

Did you look into it?

Yes. I understand that

you're in a lot of pain,

but I don't see anything

much suspicious.

...I see...

There's no record of a phone call

with Hyun-woo that night.

You didn't clear her things out yet,

right?

Why?

I think...

we should investigate this further...

I guess

there is another thing.

Hello? Mr. Hong...

Mi-ju, what are you doing? Huh?

What happened?

...I'm not gonna take it anymore.

Was it fun to watch and hide?

Since I kept ignoring everything...

do I look like some retard to you?

Mi-ju, calm down.

Okay? I don't know

- what she's done, but first...

- Get out of my way...

I said, I'll pay for it!

I offer to pay,

and you, the police,

treat us like criminals!

That's not the

problem here, is it!

The professor isn't looking to

get money for...

Professor?

What professor?

Yeah, professor?

Over my dead body, you are.

You're just a damn instructor

that ruined my daughter's bright future.

As if that weren't enough, ugh!

This should settle the small hole

in the tire

and the mild joke

with the baby.

Don't even think of trying to

take us for granted.

Let's go,

before this day gets worse.

Get up, Hyun!

Hey, lady!

Where do you think

you're going?

Hey, detective Cho!

- Give me a record of phone

- Here, sir!

...Excuse me, professor.

Please step outside with me

for a minute.

You said that you received

a threatening message, right?

Right.

There was no return number,

but that student has been...

Yes, I certainly

understand your situation.

Is this the student's number?

No, it's my husband's.

As you can see,

there's nothing else

besides this number.

This... No,

there must be something wrong.

I can't show you

because I erased them all,

but I really did receive

a threat message.

Yes, I don't think

you would play a joke

on us busy detectives either.

However, if you ever have

to come back again,

I suggest that you first check things

thoroughly.

If you'll excuse me.

Yoon-jin,

who put this on?

Answer me.

Where did you get this!

What's going on?

What are you doing?

Yoon-jin, from now on,

you don't play this.

Play the song

Mommy taught you! Okay?

What's the big deal with

that song?

You can never play this again,

you hear me...?

I'm asking you,

what's the deal with that song?

It's nothing.

What's nothing?

I said, it's nothing.

About what?

I said

I have nothing to talk about!

If you have nothing to say,

I'm leaving.

...Who's Tae-yeon Kim?

Who?

She was in your college class,

Tae-yeon Kim!

And only her picture was

cut out of the yearbook.

What happened between

you and her?

Tell me something!

There's nothing!

What do I tell you?

Why you act to Yoon-jin?

This song on the tape is that

you play with Tae-yeon.

I never play with her.

So, what's this?

Is it another Mi-ju

on this tape?

No...

That's a...

What do you mean?

What

Huh...?

Oh, I must have been thinking

of something else.

Never mind.

It's nothing.

What's nothing?

Why are you acting

like an insane person?

Who the hell is Tae-yeon Kim?

I don't know,

I really don't know.

Don't lie to me.

If you really didn't know her,

why would you cut out

her picture and scream at Yoon-jin

for playing your song?

Do you think that makes sense?

Does it make sense!

I didn't kill her.

I, I didn't kill her.

What do you mean,

what are you saying?

you didn't kill her?

...You know, don't you?

That I quit the cello

because of this.

...lt was the night of our

graduation recording.

Let's take five.

Excuse me, professor! Do we

have to continue recording like this?

...I don't know.

Both students seem to be great...

but one student is

particularly great...

It's gonna be hard to continue

this way, as an ensemble.

I think we should make the one

on the right our first choice and

the left will be our second cellist.

We were in driving in her car,

after the graduation recording was over.

That was when Tae-yeon first told me what

she had been keeping to herself all along.

She said that maybe

if one of us didn't play the cello,

we could've been great friends.

She told me that she hated herself

for being in my shadow all the time.

And... because of that,

she wished I would just disappear.

I don't think that

she was trying to kill me.

It was more of my being unlucky.

Of all the days,

I was with Tae-yeon that day.

If I hadn't been sitting next to her,

Tae-yeon wouldn't have died

like that.

Uh, sir...

Oh, that'll be all.

We'll go with this.
