Why was Kim Yeong-Nim killed?

Most of the first season revolved around the murder mystery of Kim Yeong-Nim. We know that she was pregnant and that there were traces of animal blood and a male's AB blood at the crime scene. But exactly, why, was she killed? Was she pregnant with an illegitimate child? I can't recall someone explaining the exactly reason why she was killed.

Oh she was having the mayor's baby. The whole reason is it looked bad on his image. I assume he was married( we never see her tho- and the house is empty...). The thing I never understood was- her friend still worked for the mayor even tho she knew he killed her. Blows my mind, she never looked bothered until the end.

Which episode did someone say she was pregnant with the mayor's baby and that's why she was killed?

Ummm- after noticing her in the campaign photo, I believe Ga Mo Tak connected the dots. I don't remember it being an Ah moment- very low key to keep the 15+ rating I'm guessing?!?. The goal was never to solve her murder but to prevent him from going to the Blue house. Which is why they don't go into details.
