Episode 14

Are you okay? Is everything fine?

Kang Woo had him dig around for information about you.

And he asked Ms. Gyeong to have a professional get information, too.

Did he get something in the mail, by any chance?

Is this what you're looking for?

[Background Check]

You've been doing a great job deceiving me.

Everything you told me was a lie.

Did you tell me anything that was true?

Anything at all?

Who are you?

Your place of birth was a lie. Your schools were a lie.

Your family was a lie. Everything was a lie.

Did you tell me anything that was true?

Did you make up your name, too?

You stole the "Tetra Codex", didn't you?

Did you think I wouldn't find out?

You and Choi Ryu cooked up this scheme to get the "Tetra Codex".

That's not true.

It's not? Then what is the truth?

You know better than anyone what that book means to me.

How could you?

But I tried to be understanding.

I told myself you probably had a good reason.

I thought you would eventually tell me everything.

I tried countless times to let you explain yourself.

I tried to forgive you. Do you realize?

Fine.

Just tell me the truth now.

Tell me who you are,

why you're here,

and what business you have with me.

If you tell me the truth,

I'll forgive you.

Tell me.

Please tell me.

Tell me!

I'll forgive you.

I'll forgive you if you tell me the truth!

You won't tell, even till the end?

Get lost!

Kang Woo.

Don't even say my name,

if you don't want to be dragged away by the police.

Get out of my sight!

I mean it.

What is it?

He found out everything.

He knows everything.

Are you saying he knows your identity is fabricated?

Yes. Everything.

Also about the "Tetra Codex"?

I think he knew about that from the beginning.

And yet...

And yet he pretended he didn't know.

Major Choi...

I can't do this anymore.

I really can't.

What are you saying?

You're giving up the mission?

I'll accept whatever disciplinary action.

This isn't just your problem.

I'll be punished on behalf of all our comrades.

It's not that simple.

What am I to do?

What else can I do under the circumstances?

It's impossible to carry on with this mission.

No mission is impossible.

And giving up is not an option.

Don't you know we must carry out whatever order is given to us?

But...

If voluntary defection isn't possible,

we'll have to take him by force.

Major Choi.

Keep a low profile until the next order.

Please, Major Choi. Please let me quit.

There's a limit to my tolerance for your weakness.

I'll pretend I never heard what you just said.

I love Kang Woo.

I love you. I love you.

I love you. I love you.

All a lie.

It was all a lie.

What?

Really?

Oh my goodness. What will we do?

I knew something wasn't right.

So what now?

Do we have to give up on the mission?

What nut job would get married under the circumstances?

But we can't just give up.

If worst comes to worst, shouldn't we take him by force?

Do you think that'll be easy?

He's a Hallyu star who everyone recognizes.

What choice do we have? We'll get killed otherwise.

My word.

I was so looking forward to going back home.

I wanted to visit my mother's grave.

That is why I'd like to ask you to keep this safe.

What is it?

This is your lifeline.

Lifeline?

Even if we fail the mission,

we can avoid the worst

if we bring this back with us.

Pardon?

This is our only bargaining chip.

It's too risky for me to have it on me,

so make sure you keep it safe, away from prying eyes.

But what is it?

"Tetra Codex."

"Tetra Codex?"

You stole the "Tetra Codex", didn't you?

You know better than anyone what that book means to me.

How could you?

Oh, dear. Where can I hide this?

Don't you think the safe would be the best place?

The safe! Of course.

No.

If anyone comes looking, they'd check the safe first.

Then what about under the sofa? The sofa.

Underneath the sofa! That's right!

No, no.

Many people hide their emergency cash and such

underneath the sofa or behind picture frames.

It's too obvious.

Then how about we bury it in the ground?

Oh, right! That's a good idea!

Wait.

What is it now?

What if we can't remember where we buried it?

We can leave some kind of mark,

like a flag or a stick.

But what if someone notices?

Then we can write it down,

like how many steps north, how many steps east.

What if lose that note?

Good grief.

You're so gutless. How did you manage as a spy all these years?

I'm not gutless. I'm just cautious.

You're driving me up the wall with your extreme caution.

You know what? Nothing beats the safe.

But it's so obvious.

I'll have to hide it somewhere in the bedroom.

Good grief.

It's me.

Comrade Myung Wol!

Are you okay?

We heard.

We were hoping things would work out this time,

so how'd things end up like this?

I'm sorry. It's all my fault.

Don't say that, Myung Wol. What did you do, anyway?

What's done is done.

Keep your chin up, okay?

We'll figure something out.

Dear me. Where can I hide this?

Still?

Just hide it wherever.

Wherever?

Our lives are riding on this. We can't lose it.

I'm just saying because you can't make up your mind.

Hide what?

Oh. Comrade Ryu gave this to us for safekeeping.

So what happened to the real "Tetra Codex"?

I'm sorry. I don't have it yet.

I hope you're not intentionally dragging this out.

This is, in large part, your own fault.

What?

Because you got Han Myung Wol involved,

Kang Woo caught on that she took the fake copy.

What? Kang Woo caught on?

Yes.

Han Myung Wol is in a bind now,

and he probably hid the real book somewhere more difficult to find.

Darn it.

So give me more time,

so that there are no slipups this time.

Kang Woo!

Why are you so startled?

I thought you weren't coming in again.

Ms. Gyeong said she'd fire me if you didn't show up today.

My schedule. Give me a rundown.

Okay.

You'll be producing the Rocket Girls' album in the morning,

and in the afternoon, you have an outdoor shoot for "Shiri 2".

They're already making quite a splash.

There are high expectations because you're the producer.

I'll have to hear their music.

Say, "Ah". Ah.

Ah!

Ah!

Are you okay?

What do you think? Not bad, huh?

Pardon?

I'm sorry. Let's take it from the top.

Okay.

We'll start with scene 3.

Kang Woo, it's been a while, so it might not be easy for you,

but I'm sure you'll do well.

Ready, action!

Don't go! Please don't go!

Can't you hear me?

I don't know why I should stay with you anymore.

You don't know how I feel?

I love you. I do love you.

How many times do I have to tell you?

Kang Woo! Next line.

I'm sorry.

I'll do it over.

I was just getting into it.

Ready, action!

You don't know how I feel? You really don't know?

Let's call it quits.

I don't want to hear what you have to say.

Fine. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.

I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.

Cut!

Kang Woo, I don't think crying is right for this scene.

It's a bit too much.

May I take a short break? I'm sorry.

Darn it.

Kang Woo.

You've been wearing your heart on your sleeve the past few days.

You need to focus.

What's the matter with you? Why can't you focus?

Why don't you focus on your own acting?

Hey, the person I'm with has his mind elsewhere.

How can I focus?

Is it because of Myung Wol?

Come to think of it, I haven't seen you together in a long time.

Did you two break up?

What do you care?

You did break up, didn't you? Right?

Hey, what did I say? I told you she's no good.

I knew this would happen.

Hey, if you broke up,

- why keep it a secret? - Keep your voice down.

What? Are you worried this'll hurt your career?

Why else would you keep it a secret?

You can tell the press she played you for a fool.

You can reveal her little show with Mr. Choi.

The public will be sympathetic toward you

and see Myung Wol as a total wacko.

Ju Ina!

Let me make this clear. Even if we did break up,

I won't come to you,

so don't even think about spreading strange rumors.

Got it?

Hey! Do you still have feelings for her?

I might just tell someone about it.

Wait. Should I really do it?

Please, Gyeongju. It's just one autograph.

I don't give out autographs left and right.

Don't you know Kang Woo's philosophy on this issue?

Something easily obtained isn't worth much.

Give me a break.

You must really think you're a big shot.

What? I learned it from you.

You said a woman shouldn't be a pushover.

You're not Ju Ina.

Beyond compare...

So you know.

No, I'm beyond compare.

What? How dare you?

Rats. I missed.

What are you doing?

Do you want me to get you her autograph?

Pardon?

She'll do whatever I tell her to.

I'm not sure about that.

- Never mind then. - No. Wait.

Could you please help me?

In return...

Pardon?

I need you to do me just one favor.

A favor?

No, they haven't broken up.

They're very happy together.

Of course. You know how they fell in love.

They won't break up easily.

Of course. Yes. Okay.

An insider? Who could it be?

Hey!

No. It wasn't me. It really wasn't.

- What's with you? - Pardon?

Can Han Myung Wol be contacted?

Myung Wol? Uh...

Who are you?

Han Myung Wol!

So this was your choice?

You!

What are you doing here?

I told you I never wanted to see you again.

Well...

There's nothing left for me to say to you.

I really don't want to run into you again.

Here.

This is important to you.

I know it's late, but I'm giving it back.

Wait.

What happened? Why are you hurt?

It's nothing.

I'm asking you what happened.

Don't worry about it. I should get going.

Where do you think you'll go in the state you're in?

I'm fine now.

Hold still.

I'm okay. I'll take care of this...

I told you to hold still.

I'm not doing this because I like you.

I don't want you to blame me later.

Just hold still.

Who told you to hurt yourself to get this back for me?

Do you think I'd be so moved and so grateful

that I'd forgive you?

- It's not like that... - Listen carefully.

Returning the "Tetra Codex"

won't fix my heart that you broke.

So don't do anything so useless again.

Got it?

Just stay.

You can leave in the morning.

Think of it as my thanks for returning the book.

Why are you here again? Why are you confusing me?

Why?

I'm sorry.

This is all I can say to you.

Where have you been?

Major Choi.

When did you get here?

Excuse me.

Don't disappoint me anymore.

Are you so blinded by your love for Kang Woo

that you've forgotten the situation you're in?

Do you love Kang Woo so much that you don't care about your comrades?

That's why I asked you to let me out of this.

I asked you to let me quit.

I begged you to let me stop.

Why did you put me through this? Why?

If it'll be like this,

just kill me instead.

Death would be better.

If you say something like that again, I really won't forgive you then.

If you crumble like this again,

Kang Woo will...

Major Choi.

If you want to spare Kang Woo,

don't provoke me anymore.

This is from higher up.

If this mission fails,

exterminate Comrade Han and the other comrades involved

and return to the North.

If you only knew...

It's the only way we have to safeguard your life.

Major Choi, are you okay?

I'm fine.

Well, I managed to find out something about that Troll.

Pardon?

Troll is a well-known name

among people who buy and sell

old books, paintings, and other antiques.

Books, paintings, and antiques?

He or she must be quite an influential person.

Just about everyone in that business knows the name.

But why "Troll"?

Ah! Here.

The person uses this troll seal

on all secret transactions.

Hence the name "Troll".

You're here? Sit down.

How have you been?

I haven't seen you lately.

Right.

Kang Woo gave me the lowdown.

I wish things could have worked out.

I don't know what went wrong,

but I didn't call you for an explanation.

You know what an important crossroad Kang Woo's career is at, right?

Yes.

As you know, he has just made his comeback,

and there's a Hollywood movie being decided.

If Kang Woo is caught up in a scandal over your breakup, what will happen?

Kang Woo won't be able to recover this time.

So you need to help us keep this under wraps.

Pretend you're still together with Kang Woo for now.

Pardon?

I'm asking you a favor.

You loved him. You don't want to see him go down, do you?

I'll assume you got the gist.

You two discuss the rest.

If you don't want me to, I won't do it.

No.

I want you to.

I can't let you ruin my life again, can I?

Since now I know you're not worth ruining my life over.

Since you've used me,

I'll use you this time.

Fair enough, right?

Oh, dear. This is terrible. Absolutely terrible.

What are we to do?

What is it? What's wrong?

Our lifeline is gone. Our lifeline has disappeared.

What?

It was there just yesterday morning.

Someone must have taken it.

This morning, the safe was empty.

What are we going to do? What can we do?

Everything's riding on it.

That's why I told you the safe was a bad idea.

What?

You wavered all day and finally decided on the safe.

Whatever.

Who could have taken it?

Wait a minute.

Why are you looking at me like that?

Are you suspecting me?

You and I are the only ones who know where it was.

Good grief.

Why would I take it? Why?

To ensure your own survival.

What nonsense is that?

Wait a minute.

Did you take it? And now you're accusing me to avoid suspicion?

What?

Are you saying I would betray you?

Seeing how worked up you are makes you more suspicious.

What? You're the traitor, from what I can tell.

Traitor? Are you serious?

Do you think that you can take me on?

Yeah. Why not?

I'm not scared of you.

- Alright then. - Let's go.

Now that you know the price to pay for messing with me,

don't ever spew any of your nonsense again.

Night Blossom isn't dead yet.

Don't move away. Stick to me.

Put your arm around my back.

I can eat it myself.

I'm not doing this for you, I'm doing it for me,

so just go with the flow.

You've had that expression all day, and it's obvious you're acting.

Can't you smile?

Smile so the world thinks you're happy as ever, huh?

What's the matter? Isn't lying your specialty?

I'm sorry. I can't do this anymore.

There are people watching.

Have you forgotten about our agreement?

I just can't do it.

I want out.

Yeah?

Instead of dragging this out, let's just end it with a bang.

Hold still.

I told you. I don't enjoy this, either.

Close your eyes and let's get it over with.

Hallyu star Kang Woo and rising star Han Myung Wol

were spotted enjoying a romantic day together,

as though scoffing at rumors about their relationship woes.

They walked down packed streets and went to crowded cafes,

enjoying each other's company amidst throngs of adoring fans.

Enjoying each other's company?

How can people fall for such an obvious charade like that?

Are they all stupid?

So annoying!

Oh! You...

Don't put your filthy hand... What are you doing?

Just stay quiet.

I don't intend to hurt you.

Just bear with me for a while longer.

Do you really think I'll just stay quiet?

I'm sorry, but if you make a sudden move,

I'll be forced to act in a way I don't want to.

I advise you to remain quiet if you don't want to get hurt.

What?

Granddad! Granddad!

Granddad! Granddad!

What is it?

Over there!

- Check it out! - Yes, sir.

What? He wasn't there?

He's very quick.

What about the "Tetra Codex"?

We had moved it to a safer location.

Ina, are you sure it was Mr. Choi?

Granddad, what's going on?

What was Choi... No, what's the "Tetra Codex"?

You don't need to know.

So Mr. Ju is that Troll.

Just let me off wherever.

I can take you.

I'm fine.

You really don't have to.

Okay then.

Drive safe.

Look...

I won't ask you to do this again,

so don't worry.

[I know something about your father's death - Unknown number]

Who in the world...

[I will tell you everything in person]

What? It was you?

Thank you for coming.

Is this a joke?

No, it isn't.

Then what? What's your scheme?

Do you think I'll let you play me for a fool again?

The archaeologist who died 20 years ago

was your father, right?

Your father died in a hit-and-run.

What is it that you want to say?

Troll.

You're looking for Troll, aren't you?

The person who killed your father.

Who are you?

I can tell you everything about your father's death,

and about Troll.

What?

I won't forgive you if you're messing with me.

Who is it? Who is Troll?

If you want to know, give me the "Tetra Codex".

What?

Just trust me.

If you can find out why your father died,

you'll no longer need the "Tetra Codex".

I'll be waiting.

I'll contact you later about our next meeting.

What are you talking about?

Who did you say killed Kang Woo's father?

We couldn't believe it either,

when Major Choi had first told us.

How could Mr. Ju kill Kang Woo's father?

Just thinking about it sends chills down my spine.

And we don't even know Kang Woo's father.

If Kang Woo knew...

Did Major Choi tell Kang Woo?

I don't know,

but don't you think Kang Woo will find out eventually?

What's more worrisome is Mr. Ju finding out.

If something were to happen to Kang Woo,

our mission will be aborted.

Comrade Myung Wol, where are you going?

Comrade Oksun! Comrade Oksun! Comrade Oksun!

Did you hear from Major Choi?

Did he find out who took the "Tetra Codex"?

- That's not the problem now. - Pardon?

We might end up dying in Major Choi's hands.

Pardon?

I can tell you everything about your father's death,

and about Troll.

You're okay, right? Right?

Let's meet at the same spot at 5:00 tonight.

We got him.

[Han Myung Wol]

Hey! Hey!

Are you okay?

What? It was you?

You set me up again?

Please be quiet.

We don't have time.

What happened?

We'll talk later. Let's go!

What did I tell you?

I told you we could get both of them.

Mr. Ju.

That's good.

Where's the book?

Why are you doing this?

It seems that he hasn't told you yet.

I had asked him

to get me your volume of the "Tetra Codex".

What?

But you see, I couldn't trust him.

Last time when I asked Ms. Han Myung Wol,

she brought me a fake. What a letdown.

So you made Myung Wol...

But why you? Why?

You should just tell him the truth.

The truth about what?

That you are Troll.

What? No...

So you've finally solved the riddle.

Congratulations.

My father... It was you...

It's a shame what happened.

In the beginning, I had no intention of killing him.

But one thing led to another, and I had no choice.

But why? Why?

Do you have any idea how much money I spent on your father

in my decades-long quest to find all four volumes?

That was why you killed him? That was your reason?

I told you I had no choice.

You call that an excuse?

All these years, how could you...

How could you...

I didn't know you would become such a big star.

I thought that if I kept you near me,

I might get a lead on the "Tetra Codex"

that I had lost thanks to your father.

I won't forgive you. I'll never forgive you.

In any case, now that it's turned out like this,

our unfortunate bond comes to an end here.

You took the wrong side.

But either way, I never intended to let you live.

Thank you for making my decision easier.

When the sun rises tomorrow,

finish both of them off.

I'll make you pay! You'll pay for what you did!

You can't get in touch with Kang Woo?

No. He has to leave for the U.S. early tomorrow morning

to do publicity work,

but we can't get in touch with him.

Has he called you, by any chance?

No.

Ah, that's what I thought.

But I'm clutching at straws right now.

I'll have a nervous breakdown. I'm so worried about him.

Alright. He'll call sooner or later.

Okay.

Have you seen Major Choi?

I haven't been able to contact him.

We're trying to get in touch with him, too.

He's not picking up.

He went out earlier to meet someone,

but he hasn't picked up since.

Meet someone?

He said he'd meet someone about the "Tetra Codex".

The "Tetra Codex"?

I'm glad you came.

There's something we have to tell you.

Comrade Myung Wol, you don't know, right?

About what?

She doesn't know.

What are you talking about?

There's something that Major Choi didn't tell us.

Pardon?

We just found out.

Major Choi appears to have gotten a separate order recently.

An order?

If our mission fails,

he has to exterminate all of us

and return to North Korea.

He probably couldn't get himself to tell us,

and he seems to be taking it upon himself

to avoid that worst-case scenario.

He was trying to save us by proposing that we either

take Kang Woo by force or take the "Tetra Codex".

But we haven't been of any help,

and we even lost the "Tetra Codex".

He told us not to say anything.

Major Choi said we shouldn't tell her, since she'll worry.

Secrets are meant to be told.

Major Choi,

what can I do?

How can I make up for my mistake?

Don't I deserve an explanation

of how this happened?

I'm sorry.

I was going to keep you out of this,

but I had no choice.

Don't beat around the bush.

I need to know what happened,

why Mr. Ju is trying to kill you,

and who you and Han Myung Wol are.

Regardless of who I am, and who she is,

there's one thing that I can tell you.

She didn't choose any of this.

The only thing she chose was you.

What?

And even if everything about her is false,

her feelings for you were real.

Why are you telling me this?

I'm warning you.

Warning me?

I'd like to kill you with my own hands if I could,

but I can't, because...

As much as I want to kill you,

I hope for her not to get hurt.

I'll say it again.

If you hurt her...

I'll kill you.

What?

Just seeing your face makes me cringe.

It won't take long.

So what is it? Cut to the chase.

Please help me.

I think Kang Woo's in trouble.

Kang Woo? Why?

Is that why nobody can reach him right now?

I don't know the details,

but I believe that Mr. Ju knows something about it.

My granddad? Why would he know?

Please ask him yourself.

Why? If you want to know, why not ask Mr. Choi to do it?

He's madly in love with you.

His specialties are breaking and entering, and threatening.

I think Choi Ryu's also with Kang Woo.

What?

That's why I've come to you for help.

If you can find out where they are...

Why should I? Why should I help you?

You love Kang Woo.

What?

Please help me,

if you don't want Kang Woo to get hurt.

I don't believe this.

Why is she telling me what to do now?

Whatever.

I think Kang Woo's in trouble.

I think Choi Ryu's also with Kang Woo.

Please help me,

if you don't want Kang Woo to get hurt.

Darn it!

What are you talking about?

What book?

Are you sure it was Mr. Choi?

No, not granddad.

No...

- Hey... - Yes?

I miss her.

I miss that wacko.

You...

You said you'd kill me if I hurt her?

Then I'll give you my word.

If I make it out alive and see Myung Wol again,

even if you kill me then...

No matter what scumbag

tries to get in the way...

I won't let anyone take Myung Wol from me.

Take them out!

What the...

I'm nuts. I'm nuts.

Granddad will kill me if he finds out about this.

Han Myung Wol.

Hurry up!

Han Myung Wol.

Myung Wol.

What are you doing?

What is it, Han Myung Wol?

Come with me.

What?

Come with me, Comrade Kang Woo.

Why are you two together?

We've reconciled.

Let me ask you a favor.

Pardon?

Find out what a spy has to do to settle down in South Korea.

Where are we?

It's where I lived when I was little.

Do you know how to play catch?

Where's Kang Woo? I'm asking you where Kang Woo is.

What? What did you just say?

Ms. Ju Ina is with me.

Give me the "Tetra Codex".

Have you lost your mind?

Is this because of Han Myung Wol?

I still can't believe it.

You're just Han Myung Wol, the woman I love.

And I'm just Kang Woo, someone who loves you.

Turn yourself in.
