Kim Min-ja : [after Han-mo tells her to keep her child] I said, no.

Kim Min-ja : It's up to me if I want to have the baby or not.
Seong Han-mo : Haven't you heard of "Plus Five"?
Kim Min-ja : What are you talking about?
Seong Han-mo : Plus Five! If the baby is older than five months, you have to give birth to it.
Kim Min-ja : Why?
Seong Han-mo : It's the law.
