However, he thinks that Soonyang's eldest grandson Jin Sung Joon was the mastermind behind it.

To prove this, he turned himself into Prosecutor Seo Min Young and agreed to give a statement.

At the investigation, Yoon Hyun Woo stood the trial revealing why he thinks that the eldest grandson was the mastermind.

He recalled the time when he worked at Soonyang motor and was instructed to drive a truck.

However, Jin Do Joon's car crashed into the truck, making him an accomplice.

It turned out that the person who instructed this is none other than the current chairman Jin Young Ki.

To shut Yoon Hyun Woo from revealing the truth, the Soonyang official offered him a position at the head office.

Since he wasn't able to go to college and wanted to help his family from poverty, he accepted the offer with a vision of following every order of the management.

In the present time, he revealed this during the investigation, accusing Jin Sung Joon as the accomplice of his father.

With his statement, the case regarding the death of Jin Do Joon was cleared. The top executives at the conglomerate including the direct heirs stepped down from their position.

In the end, Yoon Hyun Woo sees his revelation as repentance from being part of Jin Do Joon's death.
