1. 42. Stop Thinking...

1. "Wicked bitch!" 2. "She's disgusting!" 3. "Sentence her to death!" 4. "Silence! Silence!" 5. "Order in the court!"

1. "Ahem! On october 28th, 1946," 2. "I will announce kyeongju lee's sentence for attempted arson and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon." 3. "This case-" 4. "Your honor!" 5. "The defendant shall remain silent." 6. "In a previous meeting, I told you wonhyeok kang is secretly selling illegal drugs..." 7. "Yet I was ignored, despite my having evidence." 8. "Silence!" 9. "You shall not interrupt your judgment with sophistry that clouds the point." 10. "If you disregard this warning, I shall charge you with contempt of court." 11. "I'll proceed." 12. God damn it, he doesn't want to listen... 13. Wonhyeok kang must've bribed him... 14. It's ridiculous... These men are the ones who govern our country... 15. "Based on evidence, the defendant is hereby found guilty of all charges." 16. This is a charade! 17. "Considering the circumstances that the defendant admitted her guilt, and the plaintiff and victim asked for favorable arrangements for her," 18. Favorable arrangements? 19. "I give the defendant a sentence of one week's detention and a fine of 10,000 won for contempt of court." 20. Only a week's detention? 21. Wonhyeok kang, that bastard...

1. It's safer to be sentenced correctly and be imprisoned for a longer period. 2. This sentencing helps kang look magnanimous while keeping kyeongju vulnerable on the outside. 3. That snake is setting up his moment to strike...! 4. "This sentencing is concluded!" 5. "Take the criminal to prison!" 6. "How do you feel now?!" 7. "Get out of the way!" 8. "Political turmoil that will be caused by attacking the american...!" 9. "Answer me!" 10. "Stop!" 11. "Director kang, you may breathe freely." 12. "Indeed! Thank you for the favor." 13. "Haha, I owe you much, director kang. This is nothing." 14. "But I don't understand why you're being so generous to her..." 15. I should show clemency to a woman like her... 16. I can't believe she was alive all this time... 17. The parents died in prison... 18. Without knowing what had happened to their daughter.

1. I assumed she had died in a ditch somewhere and didn't think too much about it, but... 2. That was careless of me. 3. "What's the world coming to?" 4. "It's because women are being given much more independence nowadays. Tch." 5. Well, now that I've found her, I can tie up this loose end once and for all.

1. "Hm?" 2. "What? You're already back?" 3. "Yes..." 4. "Why are you so down?" 5. "..." 6. "Are you sure she went back to the states?" 7. "Yes..." 8. "I saw her get on a plane at yeouido airport." 9. "Did you? Did she say anything?" 10. "She said she was sorry for leaving without a proper goodbye." 11. "No matter how ashamed she feels, she should've apologized herself... Tch. Running away like that... She has no manners." 12. "I thought she was smart for a girl, but she was completely fooled... How dare she try to betray me in my own house..." 13. "She's presumptuous and ungrateful. I didn't like the way she bragged about herself, saying she's from the u.s.a." 14. "...don't..." 15. "Huh?"

1. "What did you say?" 2. "..." 3. "Tell me what you said." 4. "Don't speak ill of her." 5. "Maria is my friend." 6. "What?!" 7. "Are you out of your mind?! Think about what your friend did to me!" 8. "I fed her and gave her a place to stay, but she betrayed me!" 9. "Still... That's an awful thing to say..." 10. "You're going too far! There's a limit to my patience!" 11. "She said... She had been exploited." 12. "Don't say those things behind her back!"

1. "Argh..." 2. "I'm sick and tired of your illness. It's a wonder that your condition automatically worsens when things are unfavorable to you." 3. "Forget it. Stay at your parents' for a while." 4. "I'll be busy for the time being. Ask the butler if you need anything." 5. "Now, go on, get out of here! I need to focus on more important things."

1. "..." 2. "Ah, it's me. Put lieutenant park on the phone."

1. "It's your supper!" 2. "What the hell? She still hasn't eaten yet?" 3. "Such a spiteful woman." 4. "What's wrong with her?" 5. "Why is she so miserable? I mean, she'll be released soon." 6. "We should throw her out with the rest of the trash." 7. "No..." 8. "You..." 9. "P-please don't do that... You'll... Be in danger..." 10. A foolish woman... Who worries about me even when she's dying... 11. I didn't want to end it with her like that... 12. No, stop thinking. Her safe return to the states will be better for both of us. 13. "Phew..." 14. "Are you tormented by feelings of guilt?"

1. "?!" 2. "Maria told me to tell you that she's okay... And that she understands..." 3. "So don't beat yourself up." 4. "Y-you..." 5. "It's been a while. Do you remember me?" 6. "Yes..." 7. "I've come here..." 8. "Because I have something maria wants me to give you." 9. "Something?" 10. "I guess your broken glasses bothered her." 11. "She said she had to guess the prescription, but you can always change the lenses." 12. "She also asked me to return this ornament you had lost." 13. "Th-these are... Did she... Say anything else by any chance?" 14. "Well, not that I recall." 15. "I see..." 16. "Well, I'd better get going." 17. "Take care of yourself."

1. "..." 2. "Haha..." 3. How can I stop thinking of her? 4. I miss her so much. 5. Her bright smile lingers before my eyes. 6. I know I got her into this...

1. But I just wish I could see her one more time... 2. "Hey, you. You're released." 3. "We'll escort you home." 4. But I can no longer see her. 5. "Geez, he fell asleep." 6. "Ah well, he'd better get some rest. He'll need his energy later." 7. "Shut your mouth. You're saying too much." 8. "Haha, it's all right." 9. "Look at her, she's so calm. I think she's given in." 10. "Laugh all you want..." 11. But I'm not going by myself... 12. We're all going to hell... Together.
