In Season 3, it was revealed that besides not having any involvement with the planted bomb, it was also revealed (through an extended scene with Logan inside the plane) that Baek Joon-ki's real name is Joo Dan-tae, and that the person who has long been using his identity was actually named Baek Joon-ki (hence his "Mister Baek" moniker), who also stole his parents' fortune after killing them in Japan. He is the only person who knows Joo Dan-tae's darkest secret and flies to Korea to plot revenge against him. He also uncovers his story with Shim Su-Ryeon in the process. It reveals he has an addiction to gambling and would do anything for money.

Joo Hye-in's biological mother who abandoned Hye-in for money. She was later murdered by Joo Dan-tae while confronting him about Hye-in's case, threatening to blackmail him about the twins and causing him to frame Yoo Dong-pil.
