Kim Kang Heon’s efforts to clear his son

Kim Kang Heon was devastated by the death of his second son in a hit-and-run accident. Driven by grief, he relentlessly pursued the suspect Song Pan Ho for revenge. Just as he was about to kill Song Pan Ho, Kim Kang Heon agreed to spare him in exchange for his eldest son Kim Sang Hyuk (Heo Nam Jun) being acquitted of murder. This set up a dramatic confrontation.

Despite Kim Kang Heon’s use of ruthless tactics, the outcome for Song Pan Ho remains uncertain. Meanwhile, figures such as prosecutor Kang So Young (Jung Eun Chae), detective Jang Chae Rim (Park Ji Yeon), the gang boss Jo Mi Yeon (Baek Joo Hee), and even those within the Blue House are keenly watching for Kim Kang Heon’s downfall.

Kim Kang Heon later discovered that the true culprit was not Song Pan Ho but Song Pan Ho’s son Song Ho Young (Kim Do Hoon). He was further shocked to learn that his own son Kim Sang Hyuk had raped Song Pan Ho’s wife, leading to her suicide. This revelation left Kim Kang Heon in a situation similar to Song Pan Ho’s, raising the question of whether he can secure his son’s acquittal and maintain his power.

Song Pan Ho and his son’s uncertain fate

Judge Song Pan Ho’s life fell apart when his only son Song Ho Young was involved in the hit-and-run accident. The victim was Kim Kang Heon’s second son, meaning the consequences for this crime could be severe, potentially resulting in death rather than just legal penalties.

To protect his son, Song Pan Ho took the blame for a crime he didn’t commit. Despite sacrificing his principles and honor, he found Kim Kang Heon’s power overwhelming. He later discovered that the incident was not an accident but a planned crime by Song Ho Young, who sought revenge for the death of his mother, caused by Kim Sang Hyuk.

Detective Jang Chae Rim knows the truth, and Kim Kang Heon also learned that Song Ho Young is the real perpetrator. This has left Song Pan Ho increasingly unstable. With no escape and standing on the brink, the fates of Song Pan Ho and his son remains uncertain.
