Original subtitles

Cut. We'll do a new take.

What? Assistant Director, control the staff. Go.

- What are you doing? - I'm sorry, Sir.

- What are you doing? - Hurry up.

- Gosh. - Get that organised.

Are you all right?

I'm fine. This feels more realistic.

I'm sorry. Let's take a break before we go again.

Okay.

- Let's go. - Hurry up, and get it ready.

Make sure you control it.

Get it organised.

- You're done already? - Don't ask me.

Did something happen?

This is why I hate starring in low budget films.

I know it's hard, but keep it up.

If you star in Director Yoo's film,

you'll go straight to Cannes Film Festival.

You should focus more on artistic films now.

I'm only starring in it because of you. You know that, right?

I know.

Thank you.

What's this?

I'm not sure. Maybe a fan sent it to you.

Do you want me to open it?

It's okay. I'll open it.

What's wrong?

(Case 5, The Actress Must Die)

People believe that death is the most cruel thing on earth.

We're all running towards that last stop every day.

They're just scared to admit it.

A bird sang loudly in my dream, so I wondered who might be coming.

It was because of a dog.

People might think that we're lovers.

Aren't you coming here too often?

I want to get to know you better.

Don't try so hard.

No matter how much you talk sweet, I have nothing to say to you.

You know Yo Na, right?

Yo Na and Jung Yu Jin.

How are they related?

I told you.

Stop sniffing around.

You'll put your own life in danger.

Look straight into my eyes.

Do I look like I'm scared of death?

Don't ever come see me again. I won't see you.

Also, you should take me seriously.

That woman is the evil herself.

Knowing everything and having a happy life is totally different.

At least, you still can enjoy going outside in daylight.

Enjoy it while you can.

When the time comes,

they will find you.

How can we help you?

My child went outside earlier and hasn't come home yet.

Don't worry.

How old is your child?

Three years old.

Isn't she beautiful?

I went to a club a few days ago.

I met a girl there.

I want you to find her.

What exactly did she do to you?

I was too drunk back then,

so I forgot to ask her phone number.

You can find her for me, right?

These days,

I find it hard to sleep at night.

Do you have any concerns?

My dead husband...

haunts me every night.

He doesn't say anything.

He just...

wanders around me.

Even now,

I can feel his presence.

- Gosh. - You startled me.

Listening to their requests feels like flipping through TV channels.

- What do you mean? - Nothing interests me.

They want me to find their dog or a girl they met.

How would I know what her dead husband wants?

Gosh. Maybe I'm incompetent.

Get the door.

You do it.

I said get the door.

- Hurry. - Gosh.

Come on.

I am...

the president of the agency that the actress, Yoon Seol Ah, is in.

I'm Yoon Yeong Rin.

Oh, the actress, Yoon Seol Ah...

What brings you here?

A detective that I know recommended me to come here.

I came here because I thought you would take care of it quietly.

(Lee Ki Yeong, Only Sentenced to 10 Years in Jail Due to His Insanity)

Please protect Seol Ah.

I murdered someone.

What?

For this woman.

Do you have a shooting scene in the movie?

Yes.

If you correct your stance, you'll do much better.

It will help your acting.

I'll take care of my acting.

Okay.

But it's better if it looks real.

What are you?

As you may know,

We're private detectives.

I don't want this.

It's for your sake.

Lee Ki Yeong is after you.

I have Min Soo.

Min Soo is a manager. He's not a bodyguard.

Anyway, I don't like this.

I don't like people following me around.

I'll protect myself. Don't worry.

Seol Ah.

We'll protect you.

We'll be invisible as air and always be there for you.

With the clothes you are wearing? I don't think so.

No, thanks.

From what I saw, I think she can take a guy or two.

What about you? Can you take a terrorist yourself?

- No, I... Why is she so sarcastic? - Goodness.

Seol Ah.

You know Lee Ki Yeong came out of prison, right?

He fulfilled his sentenced years.

They say many things can change in 10 years,

but people don't change easily.

Maybe he became more dangerous.

He sent you a dead bird.

That is a message that he will hurt you.

Can you handle him on your own?

Seol Ah.

I don't want to do this, either.

But I have a bad feeling about this.

If something happens again, they'd think we're manipulating the media.

So we need to be...

as careful as we can be and prevent anything from happening.

You don't have to do anything, Seol Ah.

You can just enjoy your hobby as usual and focus on your acting.

Fine. I'll do it.

But on one condition.

Never show that you're guarding me.

I don't want to draw people's attention.

If you can do that, I'll accept it.

We have to escort you, but we shouldn't let people know.

This isn't a game.

Don't worry.

I'll guard you without anyone knowing.

You're not fooling anyone.

It's clear that you have indecent desires for her.

I don't have indecent desires. I'm just a big fan of hers.

Today, I finally knew why I became a private detective.

This is destiny.

It is a destiny that Seol Ah and I had to meet.

What destiny? You have a sickness.

What are you going to do now?

They say if three people gather up,

they will find wisdom.

Now, we have planted the seed,

let's just think about growing it.

We have to check the seed first then.

All right.

Did we plant a seed?

I don't know what he's talking about.

- Excuse me. Can I have two? - Okay.

- I'll take one more later. - Okay.

In other places, the seeds don't look fresh.

But this place, the seeds are really fresh. Look.

They're about to grow sprouts.

Try it.

It may bloom flowers soon. It won't taste good if it gets cold.

I'm already doing a job with a flower.

Anyway,

start talking.

Okay.

Here.

Lee Ki Yeong is a total psycho.

He used to be a taxi driver.

He killed 2 passengers 10 years ago.

First was a prostitute in 20s, and the other was a housewife in 40s.

As you can see, he made so many cuts.

Did he do all this because he wanted to get Seol Ah's attention?

I don't know about that.

There is no connection between those two victims and Lee Ki Yeong.

He just picked random people.

There was a similar case in the States.

A guy wanted to get Jodie Foster's attention,

so he shot President Ronald Reagan.

Where is he now?

This is his address. Are you really going to go there?

(678-32, Ilsan-dong, Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do. Lee Ki Yeong)

There is one problem.

He is on probation now,

but we couldn't reach him for a few days.

Has he gone missing?

I don't know if he is missing or hiding.

If someone has buried him somewhere,

we'll be glad.

Look.

If this is going to be good, you know what to do.

I don't know if it's good or bad yet.

Don't worry about it.

I planted a good seed. It will grow into a good plant.

You still don't know.

It's not the seed that matters. The soil is what's important.

- I'll have another one. - Okay.

A good hotteok has to have good seeds inside.

- Aren't you going to give me one? - Just a moment, please.

Min Soo, this is the new manager who will take care of the schedule.

Hello. I'm Yoon San.

The president told me about it. Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you, too.

Where is the new stylist?

Gosh, this is irritating.

Why do I have to be her stylist?

I think San has tricked me.

Do you think I can wear these?

These are popular among kids today.

Also,

why are you treating me like that?

I'm treating you as others treat their stylist.

And do you think...

I'm one of the kids today?

There are concepts to films.

Trends don't matter.

You should know that...

if you're a stylist.

Fashion has...

This is the only thing that looks like a piece of clothing.

You should return the rest.

- That little... - Don't.

She's treating me like I'm her maid.

Goo Hyung.

You know...

you really have to pay me more this time, right?

Come on. Why are you always trying to get more money?

Don't you think I should when I'm working with a dead bird here?

Whenever you talk about money, I get nervous.

All right, let's make it fair.

I'll give you one more bill.

Poor bird.

It's the same kind I used to have.

You had a bird before?

I love animals.

I even have a certificate to be a zoo keeper.

Se Ra, you're someone I always want to know more about.

Goodness.

You have a bird sitting right there.

Like that bird on your chest,

I'll make sure to find the suspect.

You're so awesome.

- Is it a duck? - There is something here.

There was a tarot card?

I think I know what that means. The dead bird.

What does it mean?

In tarot cards, birds mean promotion or popularity.

So a bird that was killed through needles means...

- He plans on pulling her down. - Exactly.

It could be a prelude to a murder.

- Okay. - Bye.

- It's boring to wait, right? - No, I'm fine.

It's torture to wait for the shoot to finish.

I might get sick later.

- It must be hard work. - Not at all.

I'm happy just being close to Seol Ah.

- I really wanted to be her manager. - Were you her fan?

No, I was more than her fan.

How long have you worked with her?

I think it's been about a year.

I'm still getting used to it.

But...

that new stylist.

Isn't she pretty?

I think she could beat a lot of other actresses.

Once you get to know her, she would probably beat you.

- What? - What?

- Beat me? - Never mind.

I was just saying. Don't worry about it.

By the way, is there anyone that seems particularly suspicious...

or obsessive around her?

I'm not sure.

She's good at managing herself. I don't know of any.

Did something happen that I'm not aware about?

No, not at all. I was just curious.

- Good work. - Hello.

- Did you eat? - Yes.

The prince has arrived.

- Shouldn't we go? - We should.

- Hello. - Hello.

- You're here. - Hello.

You're here.

You're a new face.

I'm Seol Ah's stylist.

Seol Ah.

I'm not sure if it's thanks to your pretty stylist,

but your outfit today is sexy.

Thank you.

Your outfit...

is also impressive.

You look very sticky.

Seol Ah.

My feelings towards you...

are just the same.

You have beautiful hands.

Come to my room when you get a chance.

I'll read your palm for you.

Listen carefully.

If you touch me one more time,

I'll cut off your wrist.

You got that?

Engrave it in your brain.

Are you...

the new manager and stylist?

Yes, I'm Yoon San. Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you, I'm Eun Chae.

Did she shower in perfume?

- Why did you hit me? - Sorry.

I guess this is the perk of being the star actress.

She gets her own manager.

No, more like this.

- Just hold her slightly. - All right.

Do Seol Ah and Joon Young have a special relationship?

It used to be special.

They dated a long time ago.

It's been a while since they broke up,

but Joon Young is still obsessed with Seol Ah.

He's like a gum. He sticks on her and never gets off of her.

Eun Chae, are you in this film, too?

Yes. But I'm only a supporting actress.

I help the lead actors shine more.

Here. Is this it?

Ready. Action.

Cut. Okay.

It's an okay. Next is scene 38.

Scene 38.

- Get scene 38 ready. - Yes.

Get me some coffee.

Coffee?

Watch how you speak.

You need to be politer.

I'm sorry. Did you want some coffee?

Get me three cups of coffee.

And stir them carefully with a real spoon for me.

I'm sensitive to contamination.

All right.

I'll do it.

You take a break.

That looks delicious.

Is it cigarette flavoured coffee?

Gosh.

She's so pretentious.

I wish I could slap her in the face.

A stylist isn't her maid.

You need to focus.

Look at Seol Ah. She's totally focused.

That's why she's an actor.

The ones with thick make-up are evil.

What is that?

- Gosh. - Are you okay?

Are you all right?

- Somebody call an ambulance. - Are you okay?

- Seol Ah. - Are you all right?

Seol Ah. Are you okay?

What happened?

The art director said they had no problem before setting it up.

Someone cut it on purpose.

This isn't an accident. This is a case.

Did you find anything in Lee Ki Yeong's house?

Looking at the stacked mails, he hasn't been home for a while.

He's hiding somewhere. I don't know what he's up to.

We were preparing for a scene, and it suddenly fell off.

How can this happen?

- Is it going to be dangerous? - Of course not.

The one who did this must be among them.

Who?

- I don't know. - Come on.

You should find it out. I'm her bodyguard.

Why are you acting so cool?

Tell Seol Ah...

that I will find out who did this no matter what.

- I will tell her. - I'm serious.

- I said I will tell her. - Thank you.

- You're good. - I have to be. It's my job.

There are many kinds of grips.

It's up to the shooter,

but the basics are important.

Try it.

Should I...

Keep your foot straight ahead.

- All right. - Yes, and hold your gun, please.

If you straighten your elbows,

your aiming will go down.

So bend them a little.

In this way, you can reduce the recoil.

Okay. It looks good.

Thank you for what happened earlier.

Oh, sure.

Please understand. I can't say this kind of thing...

in front of other people.

Maybe because...

you think it's shameful to say it.

Everyone hates to feel ashamed.

That means showing your weakness.

You're right.

That's why I get upset very often.

Because I need to look strong.

But if...

I see Lee Ki Yeong,

would I be able to shoot him?

Seol Ah,

you can take him down.

- Lee Ki Yeong is dead. - Gosh.

Since you got it, I'll give you a present.

This is small, but it's quite powerful.

Carry it with you.

- Thank you. - Of course.

Excuse me.

- Hello? - We have a problem.

What is this?

It's for tomorrow's shooting.

It was sent from the boutique in the morning.

I hung it and left the room for a while.

We just changed the passcode for the front door a few days ago.

How...

What should we do? Her house doesn't look safe any more.

Still, a familiar place will be better than unfamiliar one.

He might be trying to scare you into another place.

It looks like...

we should spend the night here.

San, can you stay?

Just him?

Just one person whom I can trust is enough.

Normally, two people patrol together as a team.

- San and I will... - San.

You can stay, right?

I'll take a rest until I have to go to the hospital.

He is so heartless.

He could have said,

"Goo Hyung, stay with me."

He just kept his mouth shut.

I shouldn't have taken care of him.

How can he betray me like this?

Gosh, it's so meaningless.

Hey. Don't be so depressed.

"Look at the flying nightingales. They look so happy together."

"I am alone and have no one to go home with."

I now understand how King Yu Ri must have felt.

I'm so sad.

Are you rapping now?

- Hello? - What's wrong?

Did you get stood up by a girl?

Sort of. It was harsh.

What's up?

It's about the needle that was pinned into the dead bird.

- Its upper part was cut off. - What are you talking about?

I'm saying...

it's not an ordinary needle.

Then what?

It's a needle for...

hand acupuncture.

Welcome.

I come here often.

Please wait outside while I get acupuncture.

- Okay. - Please follow me.

Oh, you're here.

Hello. Did you come here to get acupuncture?

Yes.

I guess acupuncture can be beauty treatment these days.

As long as it makes me beautiful, I should do it.

It must be hard.

It's no big deal.

Life is hard.

You need to crush them, or they will crush you.

But pretty girls get...

a privilege to look down on other girls.

If you are not pretty, you must try to be.

- I see. - I'll be going then.

I'll come back later.

(Dear my love)

Hold on. Hold on.

Seol Ah. My feelings towards you...

are just the same.

Let me explain.

I just wanted to talk with Seol Ah.

Really. I swear.

It seems like she was hurt from a homemade bomb.

At least it wasn't a threat to her life.

I think it was a warning.

They could have made it worse if they wanted to.

Shouldn't we report to the police?

Yeong Rin doesn't want us to.

She wants it settled quietly.

What are they afraid of?

Will they realise when they end up in a casket?

They don't want bad rumours to go around.

It's the business that's sensitive to rumours.

What should we do with Park Joon Young?

I'm sure he has hired a bunch of lawyers already.

Could Park Joon Young and Lee Ki Yeong be an accomplice?

It doesn't have to be one person.

A suspect isn't glue.

You can't just stick them together.

If you want to throw a guess,

at least throw it within the glove.

Then the catcher should give clear signs.

It's a hospital here, okay?

- So what? - You need to quiet down.

Look into Joon Young just in case.

- Let's go to the crime scene. - Okay.

Good thing it was an amateur.

She only got a burn.

- San. - Yes?

I think we should investigate this.

Why is it there?

I'm not sure.

Someone cut it on purpose.

Yeong Rin used to be an actress, right?

That's right.

She was in the business before her sister got popular.

Had she stayed in the business,

she might've been as popular right now.

She was really good at acting.

A bomb exploded, but why was it so weak?

Why do you think that is?

What do you mean?

No way.

Ask Doctor Hwang how it's related to the rope from the setting.

Okay.

(Park Joon Young)

Do you want some coffee?

Thank you.

I'm sorry about earlier.

I was rude.

Well, I see rude people every day.

I mean...

You're better than rude people I know.

I think you and I have a lot in common.

That's impossible.

I mean the fact that we both try to hide our real selves.

Isn't it hard?

When Lee Ki Yeong killed...

innocent people because of me 10 years ago,

I died with them.

Some people...

pointed fingers at me saying that it was noise marketing.

I had to take all the blame.

It's the price I had to pay for the popularity.

Since then,

I decided to hide myself.

I acted confident...

as if it didn't hurt.

As if I'm happy.

But that's not how I really feel.

You know how it's like...

to live a fake life.

As for me,

I don't think it's bad to live like that.

I believe that if I continue to pretend things,

it will be real.

It's embarrassing to lean and depend on someone every time.

You're stronger than I thought.

Do you think this case...

is related to Park Joon Young?

I heard that you and Joon Young used to date.

He and I were always lukewarm.

He's...

not someone who can make a scene like this.

(Top Star Yoon Seol Ah and Her Sister Yeong Rin)

Sorry to keep you waiting.

No, it's okay. Please sit.

Your sister used to be an actress, right?

Yes, that's right.

She opened up the road for me and stepped back.

That's amazing.

It's probably a hard thing to do.

That's why I hate everyone in this world...

except for one person.

My sister.

It's natural to trust your family.

So it was awkward for me to trust someone...

that's not my sister.

But now, I'm starting to get used to it.

You probably can't understand...

how strange that feels, right?

I'm sorry,

but how did you get the scar on your wrist?

It is a wound that I got during shooting a scene.

(Goo Hyung)

Hello?

How is your sister?

She just took the medicine and fell asleep.

Do you have something you want to say?

What are you talking about?

Normally, when an explosive goes off,

people get hurt much worse than that.

Are you saying that you have a problem she didn't get hurt badly?

I found this in your sister's desk drawer.

It turned out that the rope which was cut at the setting...

and the blade of this saw...

had the same cross section.

Are you saying she is the one who did it?

I'm just saying it is possible.

People say the scar on your wrist...

is because your sister...

- pushed you in a setting. - That was an accident.

It had nothing to do with her.

I'm sorry to bring this up in a situation like this.

I'm just going to ask you one thing.

Is it possible that...

your sister is jealous of you...

as an actress and as a woman?

I'll forget about what I just heard.

Please leave.

- Seol Ah, detectives should... - Stop.

I want you to stop.

I'm truly sorry.

What should we do?

It's harder than I expected.

Are we fired?

We have to finish the case.

Let's go.

It's cold.

- Hello. - Hello.

- Hello. - Hi.

- We're ready, right? - Yes. Please go and check.

Seol Ah. I scared you last night, right? I'm sorry.

If you do it again, I won't stand it.

All right. Don't be mad.

By the way, your new manager is quite tough.

But I don't...

- see him today. - I fired him.

Really? Good for you.

I didn't like that guy.

Where is your pretty stylist?

Why is my mouth so dry?

Let's do a final rehearsal. Actors, please move to the setting.

Follow me, please.

This way.

Yeong Rin. Are you okay?

Where is Seol Ah?

She is on location.

She asked me to take care of you.

Help me get up.

Where is the shooting today?

Seol Ah...

You shouldn't. You can't get up.

I need to go.

- Go and check if it works. - All right.

- Hey, come here. - Okay.

- Hurry up. - Okay.

Someone should hold this.

- Take the wire to the other side. - All right.

- Not too tight. Slowly. - Okay.

- Do it right. - Okay.

Be careful. We have to get this right at once.

Slowly.

Please don't stay mad at me.

I'll buy you a nice dinner.

I said I'm sorry.

Surprise.

Let's shoot a hot scene...

with this firecracker.

Hello.

I told you to stop.

Ready.

Action!

Cut.

Don't just pull her so hard. Do it gently.

Don't rush it.

Let's do it again gently this time.

Let's do it quickly. We don't have much time.

- We'll start shooting right away. - Ready.

Action!

Cut.

- Action! - That's a lot of people.

They're going to show some fireworks because it's their last shooting.

Okay.

Do you really think Yeong Rin did it?

Do you know how magicians trick the audience?

How?

- They make you focus on one hand. - One hand?

If you look at their right hand when they're showing you their left hand,

you might see the trick.

Let's ready to roll the camera.

Get back.

I think we were looking at the left hand only.

We'll start shooting the scene.

Let's go.

Ready.

Action!

Cut. What is it?

- It won't open. - What?

- Goodness. - Why isn't it opening?

It's not working.

Try pulling it harder.

What's going on?

What's wrong with this?

My gosh! Everyone, get back!

- Get back! - Move!

- Get back! - Get back!

- Get off! - Get back!

Help!

She was your mother, right?

She was murdered by Lee Ki Yeong 10 years ago.

You were 10 years old back then.

I couldn't forgive them.

Min Soo.

Min Soo. Why are you doing this to me?

Lee Ki Yeong.

I murdered someone.

For this woman.

Yoon Seol Ah.

I really wanted to be her manager.

Yoon Yeong Rin is obsessed with her sister's popularity.

Is that why you waited until Lee Ki Yeong was released?

So that you could kill Seol Ah and blame it on him?

Do you think I was...

the only one who wanted her dead?

What are you talking about? Who else wanted to kill her?

Hi, San.

Thank you for everything.

No problem, but there are things I still have to solve.

What do you mean?

It was proven that Min Soo planned everything.

- What else is left? - It's true that he's the suspect.

But there is someone else who needs to take partial responsibility.

It's only that people didn't bother to show it. She's poison itself.

She's like poison that makes everyone sick.

Eun Chae.

You sent a dead bird in a box, didn't you?

It was also you who cut the rope at the setting...

and left the tool in Yeong Rin's office.

The acupuncture needle and the make-up on the saw...

To be specific,

The components of the make-up...

matched the unique perfume you always have on.

You wiped the evidence with a perfumed handkerchief...

to wipe the fingerprints.

That became a critical clue.

And when the wall at the setting fell down...

- What happened? - Seol Ah.

- Is she okay? - Seol Ah.

- Are you all right? - Is she hurt?

- Somebody call an ambulance! - Give me my mobile phone!

You definitely had an interesting reaction.

My mum...

died because of her.

Do you know how it feels...

to have someone take your mother away?

Lee Ki Yeong.

Yoon Yeong Rin.

Yoon Seol Ah.

Why do I have to suffer because of them?

Why?

I hate Seol Ah.

Eun Chae.

What do I lack in comparison to you?

To be honest, you became popular because of luck.

If it weren't for Lee Ki Yeong,

you wouldn't have been as popular.

What are you saying?

You're the same.

How long do I have to be a supporting actress?

Have you ever been considerate of me?

All you think about is Seol Ah.

You only care about your sister. You've never cared for me.

You're right.

It was me.

I did it because I wanted to become a lead actress.

So what?

Are you going to arrest me?

No.

That's what the police does.

That's it for me.

But I think you should know this.

Seol Ah only signed for this film...

on a condition to have you...

play the lead actress in the director's next film.

Min Soo.

No matter how hungry you are,

there are some things you must not eat.

One of them is hatred.

Hatred not only rots your body, but also your heart.

That's why it's a scary thing.

Do you think your late mother will be happy about this?

You're...

A lot of people hate me, I guess.

It's not anything new.

That's what your job entails.

But more than people who hate you,

there are people who love and adore you.

This scar is from my sister.

But I decided to understand her...

and forgive her.

In the end,

she paid for giving up on her dreams.

I don't hate her.

After it happened,

I decided to trust her no matter what.

San.

Have you ever trusted anyone to the end?

Thank you for everything.

Yes.

(Calling line identification restriction)

Yoon San?

Talk.

That's too dry for a greeting.

Then what do you want me to do?

I think...

we should get to know each other more.

How about we meet up...

right now?

All right. Let's meet up.

(Vampire Detective)

Goo Hyung, are you going to go to this reunion tomorrow?

There can't be anyone more cowardly than I am.

Soo Yeon died that night.

- Someone died while playing a game? - It was an accident.

It wasn't the accident. It was a murder.

Kill number five.

Who could be the murderer?

Let's start from 11pm.

On the night of the crime, while playing the game...

Number 3 must kill number 5.

Lee Soo Yeon died.

In her jacket, we found the card that had number five on it.

Are you saying someone killed her?

It must be the person who had number three.

Who was the last person to see Soo Yeon?

The suspect is among us.

The suspect...

is Yong Goo Hyung.
