[Episode 14]

Can I ask you what we're doing here?

From this point forward...

start explaining so that I can fully understand.

You pretended not to about the existence of your fellow researchers and your mentor.

You were not mentioned in Doctor Jung Han Su's journal.

But thankfully, there was a science article released at the time.

Not only that, you claimed that you were infected in an accident.

And that was why you started researching the virus to begin with.

Also, the drug used to reconstitute you into a human being...

you said you were the only one to use it?

There were two infected men I had been waiting a long time to meet.

I recently met them.

But, just like you Director...

they had the physical attributes of normal humans.

Now, I will give you time to explain yourself.

We have a lot of time.

Use all the time you need.

Sometimes a lie is needed...

Especially when the truth will bring nothing but confusion.

His parents are both good looking.

That's where he got his looks from.

I was a member of the Doctor's research team.

Along with these two friends of mine.

They were my two closest friends.

Then, why didn't you say anything?

Doctor Jung created this virus and researched it.

He wanted to keep that hidden forever.

He even wanted to hide the fact that we researched together.

So, that's why I told you that I was the first one to find the virus.

What about the other infected?

They were test subjects of Doctor Jung's that he did not tell us about.

- Test subjects? - Yes.

We only found out later.

Doctor Jung had injected the virus into several dying test subjects.

Those test subjects ended up banding together and tried to get rid of us.

They wanted the virus all to themselves.

So you're saying that there are many more infected out there?

Yes.

Because those infected were after us, my friends and I dispersed here and there.

And in order to preserve the virus, we injected it into our own bodies.

You're saying everyone chose to become infected?

Yes.

However, Doctor Jung refused to run.

He insisted on fighting back and continuing his research.

Eventually, there was an accidental fire in the lab.

Was it really an accident... Or was it the work of an infected person?

I'm not too sure.

And what happened to your two friends?

Later, I found out that my friends both died in accidents.

And what about the infected that have passed themselves off as human beings?

As I told you before...

when I was on the run, I left behind some of the drugs.

I believe that's when they got their hands on it.

Then by chance...

The infected that you've been waiting a long time to meet...

Yes.

They are the infected that killed my parents.

How very unfortunate.

[Born in 1971]

[Report Date: 1977-03-14] [Reporter: Allen Joyce]

I believe they will approach us very soon, both you and I.

Also, Doctor Jung's research is involved now, as well as his son.

I apologize for not revealing everything earlier.

I did not want to cause you more grief than necessary.

Thank you for thinking of me.

Of course I would.

Well, that's the end of that.

As for the research you are doing in ward 21A...

you don't really think I'll continue sitting back and watching, do you?

I'm not sure.

The other infected can continue doing what they're doing.

As for ward 21A, I'm considering solving that issue.

Do you actually believe him?

Oh no... you actually believe him. You do.

When someone is lying and you doubt him, it's best just to pretend you believe.

When the lies start piling up, I can solidify my doubt into certainty.

That's right!

You didn't just take his word for it, right?

Hey, I thought I was going to die of boredom listening to him go on.

We need to just totally expose this guy! We'll just get him...

All we have is our gut feeling.

What more do we need? This is enough.

It isn't that we need more evidence.

Then what?

I want him to admit everything he's done, with his own mouth.

Everything he's done wrong...

Why didn't you report it to me...

the fact that you met Park Ji Sang?

After Park Ji Sang met you...

he noticed that you were physically like a human being.

He even used Chief Jung to try and trap Chul Hoon.

He even suspected me of having connections to you.

I'm sorry, Doctor. Please forgive me.

It happened so suddenly.

And I could not sense his presence.

Of course you couldn't.

He injected himself with his new depressant for Sister Sylvia's surgery.

That would have lessened his infected frequency.

Please forgive him this time.

In my opinion, it was an unavoidable...

To me... even silence is lying.

Doc... Doctor.

You will feel nothing but pain right up until you die.

This will be the last time I let you off because of our past history together.

If you stay silent one more time... I'll make you silent forever.

You're not asleep yet?

Go to sleep. You have many surgeries tomorrow.

I'm getting so tired of this.

First of all, the Director knew your parents.

And the fact is, he was a part of Doctor Jung's research team.

Just by analyzing the photo on this article...

I can infer that the Director should be at least in his 70's.

But, in his profile, it says that he is 45 years old.

What kind of anti-aging regiment did he use that he's so youthful?

The Director is infected too, isn't he?

Just like your parents?

Why would you keep such an important fact from me? Why would you? Why?

Honestly, this is the most important. This is the key point!

I thought if you knew, it would put you in more danger.

Why is it more dangerous?

You know very well what's been going on in ward 21A.

When it comes to his goals, he'll use any means and methods necessary.

Let me just say something.

This my family's hospital, not yours and not the Directors.

How can I do nothing when I know this chaos is going on?

Tomorrow, I'm going to talk to my uncle and the Associate Director.

- You can't do that. - Why not?

I just told you!

He will use any means and methods necessary.

If anyone opposes him, he will get rid of them.

Whether it is the Chairman or the Associate Director...

if anyone tries to push back too hard, something very bad could happen.

Still... he wouldn't go that far.

No, he's someone who can do that and more.

The Director might be the one who killed my parents.

Is that true?

He has deep ties with the infected man that you saw.

Then...

the infected man that your mother referred to in the video...

If this is all true, then we can't just do nothing like this.

We're not strong enough... to take action yet.

Are you feeling okay?

- About what? - Your parents.

Hyun Woo asked me the same question.

I'm a little angry, but I'll manage.

Go to bed.

Even though you found out after so long, I'm sure it still feels the same.

The pain that you felt after you lost your parents.

You should go ahead and feel anger, sadness, and pain.

When you get into the habit of hiding your feelings...

on the days you want to vent, and it's difficult to do so it's frustrating.

Just for today, try doing what I suggest.

Just for today...

Why are you here again?

What do you mean again?

Where's Chief Park?

He's doing the rounds right now. He'll be here later.

I... really like him.

Why?

Well... how should I put it?

Because he's very warm-hearted.

And he seems to believe in God.

Chief Park is a devoted atheist.

I don't think so.

He probably loves God more than anyone.

And more than anyone...

I bet he is loving to others, as well.

-Did you sleep well? - Yes, very.

I hope your mind is more at ease now.

Yes, of course. I feel much better than I expected.

Truth does bring peace to one's mind.

My mind feels clear too.

You're right.

Truth is the best prescription to a confused mind.

Thank you for the prescription.

I'll return the favor soon, in whatever way possible.

He's eating well now.

Yes, he was only able to eat porridge before.

You spilled some.

Dad...

Honey...

I'm sorry, honey.

I'm sorry Soo Yun.

I'm sorry.

Analysis report of the compound you got from Director Lee.

Ji Sang... you shouldn't use that anymore.

Like the Director said, that virus compound is

used for increasing body temperature, heart rate and blood pressure.

But, I had a question, remember? How the body can withstand such high temperature.

- Nebilo Virus? - Right.

One of the four viruses in the compound is Nebilo.

This virus killed 170 thousand just in Africa alone.

The most distinctive trait of this virus is that it paralyzes diencephalon.

Hypothalamus in diencephalon regulates body temperature.

Which means it messes up thermo-regulation.

It can no longer sense the temperature.

What's worse is...

the frontal lobe gets stimulated which makes impulse and emotion control difficult.

The infection already weakens impulse control, but this makes it worse.

I used it to become more human-like, but it'll make me more monster-like?

The infected have physical strength.

But, their only weakness could be mind control.

If anyone opposes him, he will get rid of them.

Whether it is the Chairman or the Associate Director...

if anyone tries to push back too hard, something very bad could happen.

Why?

You think I'll keep losing to the Director?

No, that's not it.

I'm just worried.

About what?

That's...

The Director looks gentle on the outside, but who knows what he's really like.

He could be planning something awful.

I can easily handle that much.

I'm managing fine without backing down.

You don't need to worry.

Don't go too far though, okay?

Okay

By the way

Is Manager Suh still getting on your nerves these days?

Oh, you didn't hear?

She stopped coming in a few days ago.

- Why? - She got transferred to the US suddenly.

Her replacement is here too.

As Associate Director, I should've known. How embarrassing.

It's possible to be kept out of the loop.

They do their own things anyways.

I wonder why Manager Suh went to the US so suddenly.

She had plenty of reasons to.

Now what should we do?

Continuing our research is dangerous, but it hurts my pride to stop.

And as for the hospital, ward 21A is still problematic.

Are you just going to leave 21A alone?

- Chief. - Yes.

What if...

Doctor Yoo and your attackers are somehow linked to the Director?

What?

Even if your life is threatened, will you keep this up?

Or, will you fold immediately?

Is there any substantial evidence to what you're saying?

What would you do?

Even if you give up, I won't judge.

If I do give up, I think I'd die from my curiosity.

What should I do?

I will die sooner or later.

I should just go for it before dying.

Why don't we meet again tonight when it's more quiet?

I have something to tell you.

Okay.

And make sure you're mentally prepared for today.

Give it a listen when you have time.

It's our... history.

My future is in your hands.

You need to get it done perfectly. Prevent any future troubles.

I understand completely.

You recorded this?

You always said this.

Knowing your opponent's disgraces is the best weapon.

How dare you...

I'm not trying to threaten you.

I just want to protect Taemin while protecting myself.

You? You protect Taemin?

By being so cowardly?

Fine, do whatever you want.

Take it to the police.

Then it's the end for only you.

You know well that this isn't even close to being enough to bring me down.

Of course I know. But...

what if Ri Ta were to find out?

It'll create a bigger stir than it being exposed to the world.

I don't want anything else, just let me keep my position.

Allow me to keep my responsibilities.

I hear you're eating well and taking all your medicine.

Yeah, well, I'm not doing it to get a compliment.

All seems good, except when will you start using honorifics to your elders?

Don't expect too much from me.

- Why? Are you going to hit me again? - Nope.

I wanted to give you a pat.

Ouch! What kind of pat is this?

Ouch! This is child abuse! I'm going to report you to the police!

- Go right ahead. You're so cute. Good girl! - Ouch!

- Miss Jang Yoo Jin? - Yes?

What is it?

Yes, I'm the new manager for the New Drug Team...

Okay, that's enough.

What are you doing?

You didn't even give her files to me. You can't! You can't do that!

Please stop and step back.

What if I say no?

Ouch... Ouch!

What do you think you're doing?

I apologize. He's being a nuisance.

Let go of his hand.

- Are you okay? - Yes...

Hey, you!

Even if it hurts a little, hold still. Okay?

Ouch, that hurts...

That really hurts...

He's the most rude and ignorant person ever.

Hurting someone's arm like that!

Professor Lee Ho Yong was a little too much.

What's too much? He was looking out for a patient.

Stop getting involved.

He was also rude to me!

My pride is hurt. Really.

What did he do?

Well... I told him to stop.

Then he smiled in this slimy way and...

with his finger...

'shhhhhh'.

Chief, what brings you by?

If you are rude to the doctors again...

I won't let you get away with it.

I'm being serious, so you better take it seriously.

Got it?

Yes. I'm sorry.

Gosh, what did I just do?

It's not like I'm in elementary school.

Seriously...

From now on, don't tell me stuff like this.

I wonder why Manager Suh went to the US so suddenly.

She had plenty of reasons to.

Since Manager Suh started working here, two patients died.

The one who got discharged and the one might've died from Malaria.

Yes.

On top of that, she made a big deal out of us trying to draw blood.

Makes sense for her to take responsibility.

At least she ended up well since she got transferred to the US.

She could've gotten a harsher punishment.

You need to look into something. It's urgent.

What we discuss from now on is all confidential.

And you have to keep this secret no matter what.

I don't know what it is, but okay. I will.

This person is...

the Director?

Yes, you're right.

Director Lee Jae Wook.

How can this be...

Look at this for now.

You are not a monster... you are infected with a virus.

You have been infected with a virus called VBT-01.

Your father and I were infected.

And because you were born to us, so you were infected, as well.

Someday, a time will come when we will no longer need this room.

You've worked a very long time in order to achieve that goal.

When you work a long time towards one goal...

every now and then...

one can forget what was so important to them at the beginning.

No, sir.

You're the same now as you were back then.

I'm thankful to hear you say that.

If you truly mean that and you are sincere...

I hope you and I are alike.

I hope you will not be swayed or influenced by what's around you.

And stay true to your convictions.

Those convictions should be displayed by your loyal actions.

I will take that into consideration, Doctor.

I've finished watching it.

But, I cannot believe this.

This virus is really out there.

You and your family...

and Director Lee Jae Wook are all infected?

No... it can't be.

It must be some other virus.

This just doesn't make any sense.

Chief.

Is this enough for you.

Or do I need to show you more?

Other infected exist, as well.

No one is sure of exactly how many and there is no way to know.

And the research that's going on in ward 21A?

- Is it using this virus? - Yes.

They are infecting more people.

They are using a factor of the virus to create a vaccine.

My goodness!

Oh my God...

How could something like this...

But, why did the Director pretend not to know anything?

He is a former student of my father.

He also worked on the same team as your parents.

He says when they ended the research and dispersed, this is what they agreed to do.

They agreed not to talk about the virus or the research.

The Director is continuing the research all on his own.

In an incredibly vulgar manner, at that.

He's not exactly continuing the research. He's stolen it all for himself.

Do you think he took the research using a just method?

Especially when my father and the other team members were there.

What if he got rid of my father and your parents?

What is the possibility of that?

We don't have evidence of that.

It is a fact that they decided to leave on their own.

I see.

By the way, who else knows about this?

You, me, Hyun Woo, and Doctor Yoo.

Okay.

I feel so heavy-hearted.

You said that you can't drink, right? Just allow me to pour you a drink.

Something I could never have imagined has occurred.

I thought to myself that it would never have happened.

And I had peace of mind.

Do you remember what I said several days ago?

I said that if there is someone infected by this virus...

I said I would have to carry that burden for the rest of my life.

I must carry that burden now.

Of course, I must carry it.

It's not your fault, Chief.

Maybe if I did something else for a living.

But like my father, I, too, am a doctor.

I must take responsibility for what my father has started.

Thank you, Chief.

This must have been a difficult secret to reveal to me.

Like my parents trusted your father, I trust you, as well.

In place of my father, I will apologize to you and your parents.

Please forgive me.

Stop.

Stop... please sit.

From now on... we can figure this out together.

Oh my. You reek of alcohol. How much did you drink?

26 drinks... and a half.

What is this? You're a total lush.

I've checked off another question off of my 100 Q&A list.

Vampires are excellent drinkers.

Now that I think about it, I'm getting annoyed.

Why weren't you my Black Knight when we were in Jeju Island?

Back then... I didn't like you.

Didn't like me?

What kind of answer is that? It is so childish!

Then, how about now?

Well, I could drink one or two on your behalf.

No... make that four drinks.

Forget it. I'll drink it all myself.

Anyways, Chief Jung must have felt very guilty.

Yes. But, now I feel like I can really trust him.

He seems like a scientist with conscience.

What should we do now?

You have an ally now. What's the next step?

Now, I have to make him confess with that mouth of his.

Director.

Yes?

Starting today, I'm planning on not treating the patients in ward 21A.

Excuse me?

I took a look at what's going on.

It's not their illness, but the adverse symptoms that's making treatment difficult.

I don't want to cover that, as well.

You must have seen some of the progress the drugs have been making.

I'm sure it's temporary.

You know how drugs can be. They always seem to work, at first.

It's later, that's the problem.

Even just yesterday...

didn't you claim that you wouldn't sit back and just watch with regards to ward 21A?

Yes, I did.

But, I gave it another thought.

And it didn't seem necessary.

Still, it is research involving our virus.

You ought to take interest in it.

I don't think it's going to go well, anyways.

I'll focus my attention on the patients in the general ward.

I should also prepare for the other infected who could show up at anytime.

Exactly, how much did you drink?

The smell is so strong!

Oh... I'm dying.

Chief Park can really drink.

Really? I heard he can't drink at all.

- Doctor Choi. - Yes?

About that promise... is that still valid?

Which one?

You know... the one about Chief Park... being a vam... vampire...

I said I'd run in the hallway back and forth in my underwear.

Of course. It's still valid.

Well, it's never going to happen. Let's just forget about it.

Why? All of sudden?

It's just so childish between a mentor and a student.

Actually, it's not childish whatsoever!

Also, a promise is even more important between a mentor and a student.

Why are you taking it so seriously?

Well... okay. We'll do it then.

Gosh now. You sure are stubborn!

Don't worry about me.

Go on and work.

Okay, I'll take care of it.

Oh dear...

Now, even my eyes must be getting dim.

My Ri Ta's face...

I can't see it very well.

You can feel me right here.

Sister.

I will move you back to the room you had been staying in.

Oh...

That is welcoming news to hear.

Now, you really have to prepare to let her go.

I know.

I have been for the past few days.

You should let others in her life know, as well.

Okay.

What are you looking at?

It's not because your body's become warm, is it?

- What is? - It's just...

You've become a warmer person... all of a sudden.

Am I mistaken?

Does one thing have nothing to do with the other?

Well, you were warm even back then.

The hand of that boy who put medicine on my forehead...

I think I would've felt colder back then.

No, you felt warm... like you do now.

I checked Suh Hye Ri's US departure records and there's nothing there.

- What about another country? - Yes.

After entering Korea a year ago, it says she never left.

First figure out Suh Hye RI's whereabouts.

And her place of residence, car, and etc.

Your new suppressants must be quite effective.

You keep taking on surgeries.

Inhumane blood that's been drawn from children.

And compound made of all kinds of virus.

The suppressants I'm on are better than those.

They were produced after a long arduous research.

They don't deserved to be judged so harshly

I'm sorry if I offended you.

No, if you felt that way, it's fine.

I suddenly got curious about something.

The infected people that attacked us... I wonder what kind of research they are doing.

They might be working on something that's more shocking and novel.

Now I'm curious, as well.

If their research is actually useful...

I think I can join hands with them although they are my enemies.

Still...

you should be careful.

I'm always careful.

Excuse me. I have to go.

I asked you to come by because I needed to talk to you.

Yes.

I want to start working on developing a vaccine that can cure VTB-01.

I'll for sure need help from Joo Hyun Woo and others.

Thank you for saying that, but it won't be easy.

I know, but I want to give it a try.

This can be the repayment for what my father did.

Sister.

Should I make you live longer?

Oh, that's okay.

No matter how rich you are, you can't prolong someone's life.

I can do it.

Nothing is impossible in this world with money.

No matter how much money you have, don't meddle with life.

Is somebody there?

It's me, Director Lee Jae Wook.

Oh, Director...

Thank you... for coming by when you're busy.

It's no trouble. Of course I should come see you.

Sister.

You have a chance.

A chance to live longer.

I said this already.

I don't need to.

Sister.

Why do you keep...

trying to imitate our Father in heaven?

Because the Father in heaven isn't doing much in reality.

You think I believe because He's done much for me?

He's like a chair.

A chair that anyone who is weary can rest on.

We don't expect anything from a chair, right?

Once we start expecting something...

it's no longer God, but a superstition.

You should also become a chair to anyone in need.

That's how you can really become like God.

I am sorry, Sister.

I'm not trying to be God.

I'm working so I don't need to rely on God.

You have no manners.

Coming into a room where a girl is sleeping alone, early in the morning.

Why? Is something wrong?

The hospital called.

Sister...

Sister...

Don't leave.

Stay a little longer.

Okay... okay.

For sure...

she went to a nice place, right?

No.

Again...

she'll return to this world.

Sister is...

that kind of a person.

Don't think too much and get to sleep.

Okay?

What is this?

Just start coloring whatever. This stopped me from thinking.

There were times when I'd get unbearably dizzy and uncomfortable.

This helped to stabilize me.

It also helped me when I tried to forget my craving for blood.

Then why was it hidden away?

I was afraid Hyun Woo...

might make fun of me.

That it's lame.

This looks exactly like the woods in Jeju Island.

- It's similar, right? - Yes.

When I color this, I told you it makes my mind go blank.

But, it does make me think of one thing.

Yoo Chae Yeon.

So, right here... I colored everything pink.

Pink hat and pink t-shirt.

You and your pink.

It's not that I only remember because your clothes were pretty...

I wasn't asking you to say I was pretty.

So I just color like this?

You have no sense.

Look... pink.

Oh my... pink again!

For the star of a black and white movie, you sure love pink.

Then, I'll do red.

Just give me pink.

I'll just do as you say.

Where is the red?

Are you color blind?

Ji Sang! Come over here.

Hey you. You ambiguous punk.

What is this?

This here is an infected.

Infected usually don't have this kind of color distribution.

But, the red and blue is very uniquely distributed.

This is an infected that has taken drugs to reconstitute himself into a human.

So, the drug is in the process of losing its effect right now.

Yes.

So, that temperature and his original body temperature is in confusion.

You confused punk!

Why do I get the feeling that he's an old acquaintance of mine?

I'm not much of a hunter.

But, he was hanging out in front of my house so blatantly.

I caught him and brought him here.

Oh, I didn't kill him.

Instead, I did give him a small amount of tranquilizer.

No wait... it wasn't a small amount. It was a lot.

He'll wake up much later.

Why did you bring him to me?

He's an infected that's been after the both of us.

Now that I've caught him, of course I should share.

Is that the only reason?

Of course, I have a more important reason why.

Kill him for me... Director.
