You're late.

I feel like

I'm constantly letting you down.

If you're talking about standing me up,

you're right.

But you're making it hard for me
to get angry at you.

I'm sorry.

Did something happen?

I have a favor to ask.

Please don't come to the office
for some time

without asking me why.

I'm so sorry…

I couldn't make it today.

PITTER-PATTER BUTCHER-STYLE BBQ

I-rang didn't come home yesterday?

It doesn't seem so.

Maybe a new ghost came.

A new ghost came?

I was away from the office
a few days for acting jobs.

It's just my guess.

Don't worry too much.

I'll check on him later.

Would you like a cup of tea?

LEAVE OUR SCHOOL!
I-RANG'S DAD, UGH!

I-RANG'S DAD IS A CRIMINAL!

Are you okay?

Do you not have a home? Or…

were you kicked out?

It's none of your business.

You tossed and turned
in a cold sweat all night.

I was worried you were
going through something bad.

Haven't you ever thought

it's all because of you?

What do you mean?

How can I possibly have a good sleep
when a ghost is watching me?

Oh.

Now that you know, please go away.

Anywhere is fine

as long as I don't have to see you.

If you don't mind,

may I ask why?

Because you don't convince me.

How can an attorney do their job
if they aren't convinced by their client?

Attorney

and client?

Do you perhaps know who I am?

Of course not.

I'm saying
you don't look convincing at all.

It's not right
to judge a book by its cover.

Especially, legal professionals
must not have prejudice and bias.

They must treat everyone justly and fairly

without any kind of discrimination.

Says someone who did the opposite.

Who did the opposite?

Why doesn't he want me in the office?

Does he feel uncomfortable seeing me?

SUBMIT YOON JAE-UK CASE MATERIALS
TO COURT

ATTORNEY SHIN I-RANG

Hello, Attorney Shin.

I'm calling because we have to submit
Mr. Yoon's case materials today.

I…

forgot to tell you

but…

we're not taking on that case.

What?

Why?

Did a new ghost come or something?

Attorney Han.

I'm a little busy right now.

Oh.

Okay.

What on earth is going on?

The court building is…

very close to here.

It must be convenient for work.

Why now?

- Excuse me?
- Why does it have to be now?

Because of you, I…

Oh, I'm sorry.

Are you consulting with a client?

No, it's nothing.

Well, aren't you hungry?

Your mom packed some gimbap for you.

Anyway, did Attorney Han go somewhere?

Mom's gimbap?

Wow, it smells so savory.

It smells savory.

Try this.

Here you go.

- You want some too?
- Sure.

Sa-rang, you too.

Your egg gimbap is indeed

one of a kind.

It is.

Bong-su, wait.

I'm not hungry right now.
I'll have this later.

And if I happen to get possessed,

splash water on me right away.

Okay?

Don't hesitate, and do it straightaway.

Okay.

Goodness. I get it. Don't worry.

Oh, right.

Your mom's very worried.

If you're sleeping or eating
without any problems…

Parents are constantly worried
when their children aren't around.

Bong-su.

The truth is…

What is it? Got something to tell me?

Go ahead and tell me.
You know I'm tight-lipped.

I'm not?

Anyway, give your mother a call
while we're at it.

She's been worried since this morning.

Okay.

I didn't have any at home
to have some with you here.

Who can possibly resist this aroma?

Um…

Excuse me.

I'm not usually one to be rude,

but this aroma is

just irresistible.

If you don't mind,

may I have a little?
Just a little, please.

Sure.

Of course, you may.

Oh.

I'm the paralegal here.

Thank you, Mr. Paralegal.

- Have a seat.
- Thank you.

Water.

It's better to die full than live hungry.

I wake him after he's eaten.

Here. Have some water too.

It makes no sense.
How can something be this delicious?

Is it that good?

It's amazing.

How should I put it?

For some reason,

it even tugs at my heartstrings.

My mother-in-law's cooking is to die for…

I mean, to live for.

- Help yourself.
- Yes, thank you.

I'll help myself.

Oh, I have some soup too.

Hi, Prosecutor Kim.
I'm calling to ask you something.

Do you know why
Mr. Yoon changed attorneys?

I'm guessing you heard something
since you're in charge of the case.

I haven't heard anything,
but I have a hunch.

His father, Mr. Yoon Dae-myeong,
was involved in a case 20 years ago.

The prosecutor in charge was Shin Gi-jung.

Attorney Shin's father.

Really?

So?

I'm home.

Hey.

So, how is I-rang?

He's well.

And he does have a new ghost client.

I guess he isn't
on good terms with that ghost, though.

He wants me to wake him up
as soon as he gets possessed.

Why? What kind of ghost is it?

I-rang said it was a woman in her sixties,

but it sounded like a man
when he was possessed.

You're probably mistaken.

Anyway, I saw I-rang say
something strange to the ghost.

Like what?

Like, "Because of you, I"…

It sounded like he was, let me say…

resentful.

BUTCHER-STYLE BBQ

Did I-rang have this lunch box?

Yes. Actually, no.

The possessed I-rang did.

Tell me more about that ghost.

The ghost?

Oh, she loved your egg gimbap.

- What else?
- More?

He was very polite and sounded gentle.

Why do you ask?

No, nothing.

- Oh, let me get ready at the restaurant.
- Okay.

Geez. I told him to wake me up right away.

How long have you
been living this kind of life?

- What?
- How many ghosts

have you gone through?

Why are you curious?

It must've been very hard.

It may have been dangerous at times.

That's right.

I almost got into an accident.

I almost got killed too.

Still, you didn't stop?

They clung to me all the time like this.
How was I supposed to stop?

I see you are…

a good man.

I'm just a softy.

That's why I'm dealing with you even now.

From now on,

I plan to be heartless.

Look.

Do any of these talismans
draw strongly to you?

A talisman that draws to me?

Hello, Father.

I'm calling about a ghost
who needs to pass on.

No, right away today.

If you're busy, I'll go to you.

I tell you to pass on,
but you wouldn't listen.

I'll have to send you off myself.

Did you make up your mind to send me off?

Yes, I'm going to do so.

You seem to resent me a lot.

I have no idea about myself

except for the fact that I'm dead.

So, I can neither reflect on myself
nor apologize.

Have you experienced this before?

Did you ever send away a ghost
without telling them who they were?

Was I that evil?

Enough for you to not tell me who I am…

Was I that nasty?

Prosecutor Shin Gi-jung

used my father as a sacrificial lamb.

For his own good,

he drove my father

to death.

Yes.

You are someone who can never be forgiven.

You deceived those who trusted you.

You framed an innocent person

and wrecked his family.

He died because of you!

And those who survived

suffered in pain for a long time.

After doing something so despicable…

you died without a single apology.

Be grateful that
I'm not telling you who you are.

If I did,

you'd want to die again out of shame.

Oh, no!

- Geez.
- I win!

Gosh.

I'm no longer a match for you
when it comes to games now.

But I'm better than you at running.

Whoever gets home first wins. Ready, go!

Dad, that's cheap!

HAPPY, FUN, AND FRIENDLY TODAY
JUST LIKE YESTERDAY

I-rang, watch.

To throw a fastball,
put your index and middle fingers together

like this

and push it out as you release.

- Like this?
- That's right.

Give it a try.

Dad.

I don't think I can do this.

When you aren't sure about yourself,

take a deep breath and think to yourself
that you can do it.

It will bring you real courage.

I can do it.

All right.

Not bad.

It went a little off,
but I could see it spinning clearly.

Good job, I-rang.

One more time.

Why did you do that back then?

Excuse me?

Who on earth is the man

I remember?

You left of your own accord.

Now, you show up however you please. Why?

I've been trying

so hard to forget you.

Don't approach me with that clueless look

on your face.

I'll stop now.

I won't try to find out who I am.

To be honest,

it's hard to understand.

I don't know who I am
nor do I have any memory,

but it's difficult to accept
that I lived that way

when I was still alive.

So that's why I wanted to know
how I lived even more.

But now,

I'll believe what you say.

You are…

a very decent man.

I got to have conversations,
thanks to you.

Even now, you're torn if it's right

to send me away.

I'm okay no matter what you decide.

I'm very sorry…

for showing up out of the blue.

Don't resent me.

PITTER-PATTER BUTCHER-STYLE BBQ

I'm home.

What about the ghost?

What?

Oh, I mean…

Bong-su told me
you got a new ghost client.

Oh, he…

He left.

- He left?
- Yes.

He wanted to leave,

so I just let him.

So you did.

Mom.

I couldn't sleep much yesterday.

I see. Go on and rest up.

Thank you for making time.

Until a few days ago,

you didn't know Attorney Shin's father
was Prosecutor Shin Gi-jung.

How did you find out about it?

I got a text from an unknown number.

Attorney Shin must be here.

DO NOT TRUST SHIN I-RANG.

HIS FATHER IS THE CORRUPT
PROSECUTOR SHIN GI-JUNG

WHO DROVE YOUR FATHER TO DEATH.

It ended 20 years ago anyway.

I don't want to bother with it anymore.

I read the articles from that time.

You didn't accept

that your father committed suicide.

My father habitually said

that one needed to be responsible
for their actions.

All his life, he followed that conviction.

A man like him commit suicide?

It makes no sense.

Do you still have the records?

I do.

But it's too late to do anything now.

It's been 22 years.

Because it's been that long.

I know it's late,

but shouldn't we reveal the truth?

Why are you so engrossed with this case?

Losing family and being unable to grieve

is something I know all too well.

I know someone who's just like you.

Huh?

Why are you up?

I couldn't sleep.

Why are you up?

I'm preparing for tomorrow's business.

What is it?

Do you have something to tell me?

No.

How come you never left this neighborhood?

This whole area

is full of those who called Dad names.

I've always wondered why

you ran the restaurant here.

Leaving here…

felt like losing.

I didn't want to admit
that your dad was an evil man.

I thought the truth
would be revealed someday

and that I'd hold out until then.

So you…

had faith in Dad.

That's right.

But that's just what I think.

Even if you think otherwise,

I understand and respect you.

LAW OFFICE

ATTORNEY SHIN I-RANG

Attorney Han.

It's about your father, isn't it?

How did you know?

Prosecutor Kim told me

that your father was related
to Mr. Yoon's father's case.

I talked to Mr. Yoon in person too.

I'm sorry.

I nosed around without asking.

Don't say that.

It's my fault for not opening up to you.

I should've told you sooner.

Attorney Shin, for me…

what I want to say is…

don't push yourself too hard for me.

You can take your time and tell me later
when you feel more at ease.

But do me just one thing.

Let me stay by your side.

For what you did about my sister and all,

I owe you a lot, you know.

Thanks.

I won't forget how grateful I am.

Stop it now.

You might end up spoiling me.

I want to keep that promise.

So help me out and let me.

Mr. Chairman,
Attorney Shin I-rang is here to see you.

He didn't make an appointment, but
he says you'll let him in if I tell you.

Let him in.

Yes, sir.

I came to ask you about my father.

Your father?

For all this time,
I didn't try to look into him.

I was curious at times,

but I forced myself not to be curious.

But now,

I want to know.

You take after him the more I see you.

Do I?

Your firm and upright eyes

are quite like his.

I tried to look into the cases
he worked on,

but it wasn't easy.

It was after I resigned
from the prosecution,

and the prosecutors were
very hostile toward him.

They weren't willing to cooperate at all.

But…

I had a hunch about this case
from a long time ago.

It was when your father worked
at the Incheon Prosecutors' Office.

We used to meet up and talk about life
from time to time.

That day, he seemed somewhat different.

Byung-il.

What?

Never mind.

Don't leave me hanging like that.

What is it? Tell me.

I'm not sure if I'm doing the right thing.

I just have to redress an injustice.

But oddly,

something feels off.

Prosecutor Shin.

It will all pass eventually.

What can you do? Just forget it.

When was that?

It must've been right before
he arrested the gangsters in Chinatown.

Chinatown…

My father

was found dead in the back alley
of Chinatown in Incheon.

What's wrong?

I think I should visit
the Incheon Prosecutors' Office.

It's been 20 years now.
I doubt you'll find anything there.

No one there will even remember Gi-jung.

Besides…

if anyone does remember him,

it may be hard to gain cooperation.

But maybe if it's a cop…

A cop?

Corporal Choi Dong-man.

He's a detective that has worked
in Chinatown for a long time.

He might know something.

Corporal Choi Dong-man…

Thank you, sir.

Gi-jung was…

one of my closest juniors.

Make sure to let me know
if anything new comes up.

Okay, I will.

Gi-jung was…

one of my closest juniors.

Make sure to let me know
if anything new comes up.

Hello, sir.

Where are you? I need to see you.

Do you mean now, sir?

Yes, sir.

Hurry over here.

So…

if a ghost

left Okcheon Building
without regaining their memory,

where would they go?

Where a ghost would go with no memory?

From my experience,

ghosts made a strong reaction

to their favorite food or music
or the people they loved.

In this case,

they may be drawn
to certain places as well.

- A certain place?
- Yes.

Someplace where their hearts remember,

not their heads.

AT WOLMIDO IN 1984

A little more. Just a little more, okay?

Mom, are you going somewhere?

Oh. I have somewhere to be.

I see. Have a safe trip.

Okay.

So, did you find the shaman?

Please wait a little.
I'll be able to find him soon.

You also know

that my father is excessively reticent.

Still, this is wrong.

Are you trying to lecture me?

You don't realize
the grim reality of the situation.

Apparently, my father
didn't make a full recovery.

In this situation,

what do you think you should do?

Who do you think
you should be listening to?

What is it that you want?

Tell me everything that my father knows

from start to finish.

It started

when Attorney Han Na-hyun lost a case
against Shin I-rang.

Hey, punk.

Are you out of your goddamn mind?

You're running your mouth
because you see nothing, aren't you?

As a series of unexplainable incidents
indicated that he saw ghosts,

the Chairman kept an eye on Shin I-rang.

He knew from the beginning
that Shin I-rang could see ghosts.

Is that enough of a reason for him
to stop treatment and come back to Korea?

At first, the Chairman simply thought
Shin I-rang was an oddball.

But…

when he found out that
he was Prosecutor Shin Gi-jung's son,

he came straight back.

He came back in case Shin I-rang sees
Shin Gi-jung's spirit?

That's right.

SEOIN KENDO CLUB

Come on, man.

Are you happy
that you knocked your senior out?

Why does my father
bother with this dead man?

That,

I'm not sure.

And then?

After returning to Korea,

the Chairman wanted me
to find the missing male shaman.

The male shaman?

So, did you find him?

Did you find him or not?

My father worked
at the Incheon Prosecutors' Office.

He investigated a case about Chinatown.

You'll get to hear some details
about your father soon.

First, I'm going to meet a detective
who knows about my father's case.

Thanks for calling me.

I know it wasn't easy.

You told me not to be alone.

Goodness. Gi-jung, stop filming now.

- Gyeong-hwa.
- Yes?

Seeing you through the lens
with one eye closed,

you look even prettier, so I can't stop.

A little more. Just a little more, okay?

Oh, boy.

A bit to the left.

- The left?
- Yes, a bit to the left.

- Okay.
- Wait.

- A bit to the back from there.
- To the back?

Oh, my! It's cold!

My goodness!

Gi-jung.

That was intentional, wasn't it?

No, it wasn't.

It was intentional. I can tell.

- No, earlier… No, it wasn't.
- Come here.

- No.
- Gi-jung, come here.

- I didn't mean it. I…
- Come here. Stop running away.

No, I…

I had so much to tell you.

Still…

thank you for coming.

Where is this place?

Please let me go.

I told you all that I knew.

INCHEON CENTRAL POLICE DEPARTMENT

Corporal Choi retired
and went to his hometown last year.

Oh, I see.

There's someone who might know well
about the Four Dragons Gang.

Who…

He's a fixture in Chinatown.

THE RED HOUSE

The Four Dragons Gang?

Yes, it was a gang that infested
this neighborhood 20 years ago.

Why are you looking for the gangsters
who were dismantled a long time ago?

It involves my family.

Please tell me.

Well,

it's the same old story.

They were parasites sucking the lifeblood
out of small business owners here.

They demanded half of all profits
in exchange for protection.

They messed with those who refused

and ruined their businesses
by making fake complaints.

They were vicious.

Like vipers.

How did they end up falling apart?

One day,

that man came.

A righteous and flawless prosecutor.

Arrest them all.

Boys, let's go!

- Get off me.
- Move!

The bribes they offered him
backfired right back at them.

He was such an upstanding gentleman.

We finally got to breathe thanks to him.

To us, he's our savior.

I know it's been a long time,

but do you perhaps remember his name?

I used to know.

Goodness.

What was his name…

Could it be Prosecutor Shin Gi-jung?

Shin Gi-jung?

Don't even bring up that crook's name.

That bastard was a shady prosecutor

who sucked up to the Four Dragons Gang
for his own gains.

No.

I wouldn't even call him a prosecutor.

He was a total thug.

- Goodbye, sir.
- Goodbye, sir.

All right.

Hey, dress a bit spiffier, okay?

Hey, punk. Don't wear something so shiny.

Oh, gosh.

How much are you loading up?

Even two cakes?

Take one for yourselves.

Thank you, sir.

The police walked on eggshells around him.

Under his protection,
the gang grew bigger and bigger.

The business owners here

still shudder at the very thought of him.

He was… awfully despicable.

Geez.

Ugh.

THE RED HOUSE

The righteous prosecutor's name is…

I'm moving, geez!

My wrists hurt, man!

…Prosecutor Yang Byung-il.

I told you everything I knew.

So…

Can you please let me go now?

One more thing.

What should be done to get rid of a ghost?

Burn it.

Burn their talisman,
and the ghost will disappear.

Does the Chairman know this?

Does he know?

Yes, he does.

Shin I-rang came by.

So?

We did as you said, sir.

Good job.

Hey.

What's wrong?

Did you hurt your shoulder?

Yes.

It hurts too much.
I don't think I can throw anymore.

I-rang, you're up!

M-Me?

Yes, you. Hurry up!

No, I can't…

Dad?

What are you waiting for?

The coach is calling you.

We're going to lose because of me.

No one believes in me.

I don't think I can do it.

Give this to me.

All it takes is one person
to believe in you

to conquer any obstacle.

Even if the whole world
has no faith in you,

you can muster up the courage

for that one person.

I'm that person to you.

No matter what happens,
I'll believe you until the end.

Okay, Dad.

I'll give it a try.

Go, Seoin Elementary!

Why are you here?

I don't know.

I went wherever my feet took me
and ended up here.

Why haven't you…

burned the talisman yet?

I'm not sure.

Maybe I wanted to find

even just a tiny excuse not to burn it.

But…

the more I listened to others…

the more my disappointment grew.

Now…

I'm done looking for excuses.

Despite what others say…

I've decided

to believe…

what I know and remember of you.

You were born

on August 15, 1963.

Your name is Shin Gi-jung.

You are…

my father.

SPECIAL THANKS TO CHOI WON-YOUNG

Shin Gi-jung died 20 years ago.
Why do you bother with him?

He's the chairman
of a big law firm named Taebaek.

We were like brothers.

- Be careful.
- Don't worry.

- It can't be him.
- A Four Dragons member?

- Her name is Han Na-hyun.
- Stop what you're doing now.

I cannot put my son in danger
trying to resolve my own resentment.

Burn their talisman,
and the ghost will disappear.

- What do we do about her?
- I get it, so stop.

No, I-rang.

I can't let you go like this.
