driving a sewage truck,

and you own that?

That watch was a gift

to Min-jin's dad.

Min-jin changed the band

and wore it herself.

But after we moved here,

it was stolen.

It was too expensive

to report to the police,

you say this is yours?

F***, it's mine!

Missing child CHOI Mi-ok?

The student Mi-ok?

The detectives and journalists

already asked about her.

KIM Chang-hoon The detectives and

journalists already asked about her.

Because I'm Min-jin's

homeroom teacher, I guess.

Yes, that's right.

I was her homeroom teacher

last year.

UM Ok-ran I was her

homeroom teacher last year.

But the detectives

already talked to me.

She had excellent grades.

1st year - class rank

Her scores were

very consistent.

2nd year - class rank

Mi-ok and Min-jin

were peas in a pod.

In first year, they were

in the same class.

But teacher.

That's a lie.

How can you call

her grades consistent?

Her grades transformed.

No proof that girl

swiped Min-jin's watch,

and telling the cops

just makes more trouble.

Should've left it be...

Min-jin's still gone.

What do we do?

I know it's strange to

bring it up now,

but remember our school

presentations on future goals?

Sure, you wanted to be

a first lady like Hillary.

Crazy me said

a good wife and mother.

You were such a hottie

back then.

But where could Min-jin be?

KIM Jong-Chan

Hello?

Yes, you're here?

NAM Su-choong,

violent crimes division.

- I took over this case...

- Let's talk in the car.

NOH Jae-soon

It was your wife who

discovered she was missing?

Yes.

That was the first day

of the campaign?

Why continue campaigning

after your daughter disappeared?

You'll just lose

support that way.

You want us to quit

the election?

No... it's just frustrating.

That sewage smell!

I'll open the window.

What were you doing

at the time she disappeared?

What?

What were you doing

when she disappeared?

I had an important meeting.

Who was the meeting with?

I can't say.

It's a political matter.

Just tell them, honey.

Later, if it becomes a problem,

I'll tell you then.

Remember when you rebelled

and wanted to be a singer?

Who does she take after,

running around like this?

She's off having fun somewhere.

The night she disappeared.

Who'd you stay out

so late drinking with?

Is that so important?

It's hugely important.

How important?

Important enough to decide

if I live with you, or not.

What?

If something ever happens

to our Min-jin,

what will you do then?

A girl vanishes, and her father

parades around campaigning.

Why return to a home like that?

I met someone I can trust.

How can I talk when

you look at me that way?
