<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\nAt a press conference, Jang Se Joon tries to save his public image and political career by telling a story which portrays Ume Hye Rin as a heartbreaker, a blackmailer who disturbed the happy life he had with Choi Yoo Jin.<\/p>\n
Ume Hye Rin and he met in 1993, Jang Se Joon tells to a room of journalists. They\u2019d fallen in love and planned to marry, but separated after he was arrested for secret crimes he was suspected of committing with the KFSC in 1994, and she had gone off to America to film a movie which ended up with her marrying Director Ko Joon Ho. This all happened when he was also running for Office and lost. It broke his heart.<\/p>\n
It was Choi Yoo Jin and her touching support that brought him back on his feet. He became an Assemblyman because of her. This statement is a twist on reality. Choi Yoo Jin indeed brought him back on his feet and got him where he is now, but not in a loving, supportive wife to a politician aspiring to be a president kind of way which they try so hard to maintain in public. Park Kwan Soo\u2019s commentary on the television broadcast of the press conference tells us exactly what this touching support means: Choi Yoo Jin helped buy Jang Se Joon a seat in Office.<\/p>\n
Jang Se Joon carries on to say how he and Choi Yoo Jin married and how they were happy. That is, until a few years after their marriage when Ume Hye Rin showed up with a young Ko Anna. She came with demands and threats she\u2019d go to the press if he didn\u2019t leave his wife and go with her and their daughter to live in America.<\/p>\n
He makes Choi Yoo Jin as an innocent party in his mess. He tells that Choi Yoo Jin had tried her best to accept his past and even tried negotiating with Ume Hye Rin, but multiple threats to commit suicide followed. In the end, to his shock, Ume Hye Rin really took her life.<\/p>\n
All that work Choi Sung Won did to try vilify and accuse Choi Yoo Jin of being behind Ume Hye Rin\u2019s death didn\u2019t work.<\/p>\n
Ko Anna, who had been watching her dad on TV is seething at what looks to be lies.<\/p>\n
Lie he may, there\u2019s still that witness who claimed to have seen Choi Yoo Jin kill her mother. He can set things straight. Or so she thought. It turns out that even the witness she and Choi Sung Won had gone to see in prison and thought would catch Choi Yoo Jin was a part of Choi Yoo Jin\u2019s plan.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\nWhen Choi Yoo Jin enters the interrogation room with the witness and he\u2019s asked to confirm whether she was the person he saw at Ume Hye Rin\u2019s room that night, the witness denies testifying she was the killer: \u201cThat girl (Ko Anna) asked me if this woman, who’d appeared on TV with her, killed her mother so I just said, “Maybe.” That’s all I said.\u201d<\/p>\n
Chief Kim had been behind the actioning of this plan. The prisoner was purposefully approached to set up Choi Sung Won and Ko Anna.<\/p>\n
All that work Choi Sung Won had done to try corner Choi Yoo Jin amounted to nothing, but an apology from Choi Sung Won for what he had tried to do to his half-sister. It\u2019s an apology which Choi Yoo Jin responds with telling Choi Sung Won to have Jang Mi Ran, J1 and the housekeeper \u201ctaken care of without leaving a trace\u201d (i.e. killed) after Ko Anna is sent abroad.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\nCould Choi Yoo Jin really be the one behind Ume Hye Rin\u2019s death? Episode 12 saw the witness recount an encounter which saw Choi Yoo Jin inject some kind of substance into Ume Hye Rin, making Choi Yoo Jin look so guilty of Ume Hye Rin\u2019s death. But with this episode revealing the witness to be part of Choi Yoo Jin\u2019s plan, it makes us wonder how much of it is true, whether it really happened or whether it was told just to get Choi Sung Won and Ko Anna believing they caught Choi Yoo Jin.<\/p>\n
One thing seems to be certain, though, Choi Yoo Jin was at Ume Hye Rin\u2019s place that night. After Choi Sung Won\u2019s visit, Choi Yoo Jin is seen thinking back on that night which saw Ume Hye Rin pleading Choi Yoo Jin spare Ko Anna. Love is not meant to be a group activity, Choi Yoo Jin had told her. As Choi Yoo Jin said this, her back was turned and tear were also seen in Choi Yoo Jin\u2019s eyes. It looked like she was unwilling to grant the request, but judging by how Ko Anna is still alive and how the worst thing Choi Yoo Jin\u2019s done to Ko Anna is hide her away in a foreign country, it looks like Choi Yoo Jin did at least grant Ume Hye Rin\u2019s request.<\/p>\n
Another thing that\u2019s for sure is that Ume Hye Rin didn\u2019t commit suicide. After Jang Se Joon says all those things in front of the press, he admits to a very hurt Ko Anna that everything he said were all lies. This can only mean she was killed. (If not that then we can only think an accident caused her death.) Ume Hye Rin also didn\u2019t blackmail him. She only pleaded. Jang Se Joon doesn\u2019t reveal who killed Ume Hye Rin, but the suggestion is he knows what happened and who killed her.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\nJang Se Joon\u2019s lies causes a breakdown in his relationship with his daughter. No longer were the explanations of being a coward and needing to become president so that they can truly escape Choi Yoo Jin\u2019s clutch on them going to cut it with Ko Anna. For his lies and dragging her mother\u2019s name through the mud for no other reason than his political aspirations, she tells him he\u2019s lost her as his daughter.<\/p>\n
Seeing how this has turned out so badly for Ko Anna, Kim Je Ha uses his access to Mirror to try find out some things that might get, not only what Ko Anna wants, but what he wants and what Jang Se Joon wants. All can seemingly be achieved with bringing down the same man. That man is Park Kwan Soo. Bring the rival Assemblyman down and Jang Se Joon will be able to become president, and as he says, he will be able to escape the clutches of Choi Yoo Jin and protect Ko Anna. Ko Anna would presumably then be able to restore her mother\u2019s reputation. Kim Je Ha would finally bring Park Kwan Soo to justice and avenge Raniya\u2019s death. He\u2019d also be able to protect Ko Anna and save her from being forced into hiding again.<\/p>\n
Kim Je Ha also mentions bringing Choi Yoo Jin and JB Group (so that means Choi Sung Won, too) to face justice when proposing to help Jang Se Joon get what he wants so he can be a better father to Ko Anna.<\/p>\n
This is a bit worrying. It sounds like Kim Je Ha might be going up against Choi Yoo Jin in the end. But then again, it looks like Choi Yoo Jin\u2019s goal is to have Jang Se Joon win the election. After that, she\u2019s happy for Ko Anna to do whatever she wants.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\nA meeting at Ume Hye Rin\u2019s gravestone sees Choi Yoo Jin almost plead Ko Anna stop her fight in taking revenge on her, at least until after her dad gets presidency. Choi Yoo Jin tells Ko Anna that if she could just stay still till then, she could become the president\u2019s daughter, be JB Group\u2019s owner even and take revenge on her when Ko Anna has inherited everything if that\u2019s what she wants.<\/p>\n
It seems, all Choi Yoo Jin wants is for Jang Se Joon to become president (and maybe reclaim JB Group under her control, too, instead of having it fall into Choi Sung Won\u2019s family conglomerate, Jin Han Group.) Choi Yoo Jin even offers to do whatever she can to help Ko Anna become a model, be Jean-Paul Lafelt\u2019s muse if that\u2019s what she wants.<\/p>\n
Ko Anna shows no interest in becoming a president\u2019s daughter or owning JB Group. She\u2019s not given a chance to say much about being a model, but when Choi Yoo Jin states the facts about the current situation\u2014that her mother is dead, how her father isn\u2019t too trustworthy, and how surely she doesn\u2019t want to keep living with a stepmother like Choi Yoo Jin herself\u2014Ko Anna tries Choi Yoo Jin with what would happen if she continued in her way: what if she says she won\u2019t stop until she reveals who killed her mother?<\/p>\n
Choi Yoo Jin\u2019s answer, Ko Anna will be forced to watch everyone she loves die. Jang Mi Ran, J1, the housekeeper and even Kim Je Ha will die trying to fight for her and protect her.<\/p>\n
Ko Anna doesn\u2019t believe such thing would happen because she believes Kim Je Ha would kill Choi Yoo Jin first. Of course, Ko Anna says this not knowing the fact Kim Je Ha can\u2019t kill and relies on Choi Yoo Jin to kill for him. Choi Yoo Jin uses Kim Je Ha\u2019s goal of avenging his past love, Raniya, to convince Ko Anna. Her mention of how Kim Je Ha will eventually leave Ko Anna has the latter call the former a liar. Kim Je Ha had asked her to leave with him once everything is done and dealt with in Episode 11, so there\u2019s no way Choi Yoo Jin knows what she\u2019s talking about.<\/p>\n
Only, Choi Yoo Jin does. The fact that he\u2019s on the Interpol\u2019s Wanted List makes it difficult for Kim Je Ha to go overseas. It\u2019s a fact Ko Anna does know, but the crime he\u2019s charged for is a bit bigger than being framed for Raniya\u2019s death. Choi Yoo Jin tells her he\u2019s wanted for slaughtering civilians and is considered a war criminal. How much of this is true has yet to be all revealed, but according to Choi Yoo Jin, one call from her and she can have him locked up forever. She also mentions how Kim Je Ha is just an alias, that it\u2019s with the fake ID she gave him, he\u2019s able to live.<\/p>\n
First Kim Je Ha is looking like he might be working against Choi Yoo Jin, now Choi Yoo Jin\u2019s appearing like she can send Kim Je Ha to prison if Ko Anna doesn\u2019t stop. We\u2019re hoping Choi Yoo Jin is just saying all this to convince Ko Anna to stop her ways, and Kim Je Ha isn\u2019t really working with Jang Se Joon to bring Choi Yoo Jin down because of the way things turned out for Ko Anna! We thought Kim Je Ha considered Choi Yoo Jin a friend and Choi Yoo Jin regarded him as part of her inner, her \u201cclose line\u201d? This writer is deliberately making us worried!<\/p>\n
