Original subtitles

This is so awkward.

Question number

one.

Yes, I'm Healer.

My real name is irrelevant.

Number two.

What do I do?

I'm a man for hire.

I have the best skills in the business.

Number three.

Was this my dream career?

What kind of a question is that?

I was

only going to do this

until I could buy a deserted island in the South Pacific.

There's one I have my eyes on.

From what I gather, it's still available for purchase.

Anyway, that was the plan.

But then I met

this girl.

My world started spinning.

So my dream changed which also honored my master's dying wish.

I decided to

live an ordinary life with the girl I love.

I thought it'd be easy,

but they just wouldn't leave me alone.

They kept throwing jabs and kicked me.

But what upset me the most...

was that they messed with my people.

Let's go.

LAW OFFICE OF CHAE CHI-SU

I can stay for some coffee.

-I'll see you tomorrow. Drive safely. -Okay.

-Bye. -Bye.

Why did they close so early?

Dad?

You're finally home. We've been waiting.

Jeong-hu.

Look before swinging.

Close your eyes.

Hello.

My name is Seo Jeong-hu.

I couldn't tell you my real name before

because of some circumstances.

Yeong-sin.

Are you okay with your eyes opened?

I won't look.

Thugs like them might return.

-Yeong-sin. -My eyes are closed.

-Are you done? -Yes.

I'm sorry,

but I need to tell you

some sensitive stuff that they shouldn't hear.

Anyway, please call the police.

Yes, I will!

Tell them they tried to rob you,

but don't mention me.

No, I won't!

Wait.

So, your name is not Bong-su?

No, it's not.

Is Yeong-sin in danger too?

For now, yes.

Explain what's going on.

My father, my master, and Yeong-sin's dad

all died because of some people.

And so...

Well, that is...

You see, what happened was...

Dad, our fathers were reporters,

and they died while uncovering a corruption case.

That's right.

-But no one would punish these bastards. -No one.

That's why he's been doing this until now.

-From then until now. -Right.

That's why he's fighting them, to tell them to stop.

Exactly.

And now they're playing dirty.

They sent men to hurt me just to threaten Jeong-hu.

That's it.

So, what's this about murder and reporters?

Given all of that, I need to take Yeong-sin with me.

What the hell are they saying?

As you can see, this place is too dangerous.

We have a few safe houses.

-You-- -Chi-su, don't.

I won't allow it.

I can't send my daughter with a guy

who keeps changing his name.

Not a chance.

He says he can't do it.

Okay, got it.

We'll look into renting or buying the place next door.

We'll declare this a safe house for now. I'll be back.

Wait... Hey.

Just five seconds.

That's better.

-Come back soon. -I will.

Eat well

and listen to your father.

Enjoy...

your meals, sir.

Isn't he funny?

How are there so many homes?

There must be people living in all of them.

The nurse will be here soon.

Call me if you need anything.

Okay.

Myeong-hui.

Let's have dinner together.

I'll cook. You do the dishes.

I need to tell you something.

I'll tell you tonight.

I will.

I'll be waiting.

See you later.

Democracy, democracy, where are you?

Here I am

Kim Mun-ho speaking.

If you have a tip, you should call Someday...

You're where?

I'm Kim Mun-ho.

Are you the one who just called?

You said you have a tip about Boss.

How do you know him?

Miss? Please look at me.

HELP ME

Miss?

Are you okay? Miss!

Jeong-hu's friend!

It's as if you threw the concept of caution out the window.

Don't you know that it's easier to kill people like you

by ruining your reputation?

Are you Jeong-hu's--

"Reporter Kim Mun-ho did this and that with a minor."

With a picture on top of that, you're done for.

Even if the truth is revealed later,

it won't matter.

You're right.

Remember Ko Seong-cheol?

The man from L.A. who was murdered?

This is a copy of the video he brought.

How did you--

If you saw everything I had on my clients,

you'd probably faint.

Anyway, it's better if you stay away from Someday News for the time being.

SHUT DOWN THE LIE-SPREADING SOMEDAY NEWS!

There are people saying you beat them up and landed them in the hospital.

NEWSPAPER THAT SPREADS LIES! IT'S DIVIDING THE NATION!

Who put this here?

-Who is this? -Hey.

Everyone! Kim Mun-ho is a liar!

-Repent! -Repent!

-Repent! -Repent!

-Repent! -Repent!

-Repent! -Repent!

Hurry.

-Do you work at Someday News? -Yes.

Close it!

Can you believe it? These old people are rapping.

Gosh, those people...

What are you doing?

Well...

What are you doing? Are you a thief or what?

Well, I needed something.

This is the recording they wanted. It's the tip from Russia.

TEMPORARILY CLOSED

I'll start the recording. I'm Reporter Chae Yeong-sin.

May I get your name?

I'm calling from Russia.

I would like to speak with Reporter Kim Mun-ho.

I can't trust anyone else.

He isn't in right now.

If you could tell me...

My name is Kim Jae-yun.

I'm a researcher working under Doctor Nicholai Kogiriv.

I...

This is where it ends.

They heard this much as well.

But is this enough?

Okay, then I'll clear out.

Wait, how did you get in here? I've been standing here the whole time.

I blinked once and voila, he was standing there.

Bong-su, you seem very different today.

It's his outfit.

No, it's his face. What could it be?

-I'll deliver this. -Wait, that...

Hey, Bong-su...

This shampoo is so awesome!

Wash your hair at home, please.

What is he doing?

It felt like a goodbye.

If you want to say goodbye, you should go out the door!

There's no exit over there!

Question.

"People you remember from past jobs."

I don't usually remember names.

My partner sends me those I need,

and I delete it once I'm done.

My work is actually very simple.

Get a job request, and get it done.

I then come home and open a can of beer.

The end.

So, I have no stories to tell you.

"What was the most difficult job you ever did?"

It was finding

some girl.

I first met her on the bus.

I don't remember how she looked then since I wasn't interested.

But this girl

actually came after me.

She was fearless.

Keep it down.

Hey...

Hush.

It hurts.

Right from the beginning,

I hurt her though.

She can't breathe at any remote sign of violence,

but I didn't know that.

Thinking back,

her life became so complicated after she met me.

She constantly got hurt.

She almost...

lost her life too.

She naturally smiles a lot.

Don't forget...

that you're one to always smile a lot.

So what's the next question?

Is this that infamous L.A. video?

Many have died because of it.

The freelancer reporter who took the video died.

Ko Seong-cheol, who stole it and tried to sell it in Korea, died.

Then, Hwang Jae-guk got killed to cover up Ko Seong-cheol's death.

Why isn't Jeong-hu here yet? It's dark out already.

He can't come yet.

-Why not? -He's waiting.

-For what? -Good news.

Let's forget

Little by little

The night

What happened?

I went to the evidence room.

Spit it out.

The steel pipe used to kill Park Dong-cheol had no prints on it.

They must have dusted it for prints already.

There is no such record.

The pipe is clean. There wasn't a drop of blood.

Then what about the fingerprints we sent you?

I need something to compare them to.

Hang on.

I got a ping.

You see, I ran a search.

Here it is.

Seocho Precinct received a file 15 minutes ago.

A video confession of Park Dong-cheol's murder.

My name is Seo Jeong-hu.

I am the one who killed Park Dong-cheol behind the St. Mary's Church...

on January 27.

We were fighting about his gambling debt,

and I grabbed a pipe and struck him in the head.

Min-ja, can you please tell me now?

What is your relationship with this Seo Jeong-hu?

We are citizens of the same country.

Did you hear that?

Loud and clear.

What happens now?

If a suspect confesses but doesn't turn himself in,

they will put out a nationwide lookout

with your face blown up in full HD.

I knew things were going too smoothly.

It's time for Plan B.

-What's Plan B? -Well...

I'm still thinking.

-Jeong-hu. -Yes?

Yeong-sin is standing in front of me.

She heard everything.

-Jeong-hu. -Yes?

Let's catch that crazy old geezer

before you get caught.

That'll solve everything.

Okay.

If...

If catching that old geezer isn't enough,

let's run away together.

That's dumb of you.

What about your dad and mom?

Dad will understand.

And my mom...

It's okay since she doesn't know about me.

There are plenty of places in this world

where no one will find us.

Don't worry. I'll look into it.

Jeong-hu, are you listening?

Jeong-hu?

What man would make his woman a fugitive?

Yeong-sin...

You're just so utterly clueless.

LAW OFFICE OF CHAE CHI-SU

We have a guest.

She made all this food.

Are you Yeong-sin's father?

Yes, hello. I'm Chae Chi-su.

I'm sorry.

The child in the picture is so pretty.

Yes, Yeong-sin has always been so.

How did you raise your daughter

to be so cheerful and warm?

Well, others are often surprised too.

This is her from when she was young.

They grow up so quickly.

Take a look.

That's before we renovated the cafe.

I thought

that maybe my birth mom knows.

I must take after her.

You know I can't talk when I'm scared.

I laugh instead.

You on the other hand keep to yourself when you're afraid.

Is it because you don't want others to see you?

Jeong-hu.

What are you up to all alone?

TO SOMEDAY NEWS

TO KIM MUN-HO

TO KIM MUN-HO

Hey, punk.

You know nothing yet.

How long ago did you learn about love?

About ten years?

That's not nearly enough.

Look at me.

It's been past 20 years, and nearing 30 years.

That's when you can say you know love.

Who measures love by time?

Even if it's only for a day,

what matters is the depth and sincerity.

You were always such a talker.

It was annoying as hell.

Jun-seok's son is here.

Come on. Have a seat.

Jeong-hu.

You know Uncle Mun-sik, don't you?

You're Kim Mun-sik.

You're too young to be confused with names.

I'm Oh Gil-han.

He is Uncle Kim Mun-sik.

He looks like Jun-seok.

That's why I felt bad from the start.

What's the point

in just looking like him though?

Lower your expectations.

Kids these days don't have the spirit and passion

that we used to have.

Exactly.

It's impossible to be like us when there is too much of everything.

Right.

Right!

Let's drink.

How long has he been like this?

He isn't like this all day long.

It's only after having a few drinks at night.

I wanted to ask that man in there for a favor,

but I have no choice.

This is your phone that I confiscated before.

There are many interesting phone numbers in here.

I need to see Boss.

He isn't someone you can see whenever you want.

I got a package from Russia.

Give him a call.

He's been very interested in this country lately.

Hey.

The old man is waiting for this.

Why are you so angry?

I just get worked up every time I see him.

He killed my master,

but is still living his life.

Isn't that right?

Where's the content of the package?

If I bring it,

will you stop the manhunt

and delete the video you gave the police?

Bring me the item first.

What was in the package?

Just this phone.

What's in it?

One video file.

It's of people in some town collapsing and throwing up.

Kid,

do you still not get it?

If you're with me, no one can touch you even if you're a murderer.

It will all be okay.

Honestly,

I'm tired.

I don't expect much in life.

I just want to live comfortably with my girlfriend.

Being chased by the police and threatened by you

I can handle,

but I can't stand my girlfriend going through that.

Then first,

where's the item the woman sent?

It's a video of Dugok-ri.

It's authentic.

Did she try to send this to Kim Mun-ho?

But,

you snatched it before it could reach him.

Good boy.

Reporter Kim Mun-ho, are you watching this?

I have something to tell you.

Miss, can you spare me some time?

I told you not to do that.

How about an evening drive?

-Where to? -Anywhere you want.

When I hold his hand, I feel like he's saying, "It's okay."

The warmth spreads throughout my entire body.

The one and only incredible hand in the world that says,

"It's okay now."

Question.

Things I like.

High places, first snow,

small hands, white blankets,

and her hair.

Things I dislike.

All that keeps me away from those things.

Stop that already!

-Sorry? -Jeez.

Look.

I'm so used to being alone that if someone breathes next to me,

my hair shoots up and I go crazy.

If someone big like you keeps rolling that thing, I--

INTERNATIONAL CALL

Hello. Kim Mun-ho speaking.

Are you Reporter Kim Mun-ho?

Can you recognize my voice? Are you Kim Jae-yun?

Yes. I'm Kim Jae-yun.

I'm in Dalian, China, but I'll be in Korea soon.

May we meet at the airport?

I'm going to leave right after we meet.

I don't have a Korean visa.

Hello. Ms. Kim?

The video was

sent by Kim Jae-yun, a Korean-Chinese biochemist.

The research team used our massive funding to cultivate new bacteria,

but Kim Jae-yun destroyed them all.

She kept a small sample though,

and she's bringing that to Korea.

It's a call from China.

So this is what you look like.

To think of the times you made a fool out of me...

That's some great teamwork.

She's coming to Korea today.

She bought a ticket.

-We'll go get her. -You don't have to bring the woman.

Just secure the bacteria.

The general meeting was scheduled.

The topic of discussion is the renewal of your term,

CEO Park.

Please attend and explain everything that is going on.

Who is using this time to make a move?

Are they planning a coup or something?

It isn't a rebellion.

You didn't just expose your identity,

but almost exposed us as well.

Aren't you switching sides too quickly?

I'll see you at the meeting.

A Chinese national is coming to Korea without a visa.

One airport permits people to enter Korea from China without a visa

for 120 hours.

There is one flight from Dalian to that airport today.

We just have to go and meet her.

Do you want to do the interview?

Really?

Life is all sugar and rainbows for you, isn't it?

Look, the mad old geezer is sending an army.

Even Healer can't handle such odds.

What should we do then?

We'll broadcast live.

It holds a lot of power.

Most people don't commit a crime in the middle of a broadcast.

Unbelievable.

What the hell am I doing with you two?

Darn it.

Yoon Dong-won speaking.

-Finish getting dressed. -Pardon?

-Min-ja! -Wash your hands.

Your fly is open, so zip up.

Just kidding.

Min-ja!

Ice cream.

This is one thing no one delivers.

What's this?

Crazy psychos!

Someone in Korea conducted these tests in a town?

One of the researchers took the video herself.

The others went to meet her today.

Go help them out.

Answer me first then.

You and that kid, Seo Jeong-hu...

He's Healer, right?

You need to be honest with me if you want me to help!

-Yoon Dong-won. -Whatever.

Confess already.

He's Healer, and you're his partner, right?

I have seven current addresses of hackers you've been chasing

for the past five years.

What?

Seven?

Including Devil Wing's?

I'll throw in the name and the address

of the guy who cracked Samo Bank's firewall last year.

You'll see Boss' genius hacker, Mr. Ahn or whatever,

at the airport today.

Min-ja.

Let me ask you something.

People aren't all that different.

But we can tell

whether someone should live or die for a better world.

Which is it

for Seo Jeong-hu?

What?

Come on!

CHEONGJU INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT

Kim Mun-ho completely trusts you,

so stick by his side.

Stick by his side.

Once you meet Kim Jae-yun,

confirm that she has the bacteria.

Confirm the package.

Once you've secure it,

kill her.

Kill her?

Wait.

You don't have to do it yourself.

Behind you.

Just bring her near him.

It's simple.

Simple?

Come on.

Yeong-sik, follow him. You guys, come with me.

That's Seo Jeong-hu, right?

He's obviously working with them.

Those guys are from Double S Guard.

Jeong-hu.

We can't act too friendly.

Must we go this far?

This is Plan B.

If this fails, we'll have to go for Plan C.

This can be dangerous.

No, this is already very dangerous.

-Sir. -Let's think this over.

Is that a habit?

-What? -Just thinking all the time.

You run simulations but never play the game itself.

Can't you let me win once, you brat?

Uncle.

What did you just say?

I won't say it twice.

The passengers from Dalian are starting to come out.

UNDER MAINTENANCE

Kim Jae-yun should call soon. Stand by.

Stand by your man

Ms. Jo.

Kim Mun-ho speaking.

Stand next to Kim Mun-ho so we can hear the call,

and don't take that out.

Kim Jae-yun? Yes, I'm waiting.

You'll see me when you walk out.

You saw my face on the news, right?

I'm quite famous.

I'm Reporter Chae Yeong-sin. I work with Kim Mun-ho.

He'll be waiting by the exit when you come out.

Ignore him and turn left, you'll see an escalator.

Head to the second-floor ladies' room.

-Kim Jae-yun. -Pardon?

-Let's go this way. -Wait, I'm...

When was the last time you were in Korea?

How was your flight?

I'm not Kim Jae-yun.

-You're not? -No.

I guess you're not Kim Jae-yun. Oh, my.

I'm sorry, I must have had the wrong description.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm Someday News' Reporter Chae Yeong-sin.

You're boarding a flight to Beijing in 30 minutes, right?

This is the last sample of the bacteria.

This flash drive has all of our research files.

Until you board,

may I ask for an interview?

I know it's not an ideal spot, but...

I guess it's too dangerous. Never mind then.

I have

requested asylum.

Will this interview help my case?

We're ready. Please begin.

Okay. Got it.

-Reporter Yoo! Now! -Yes?

-Okay! -Now!

Hello, I'm Someday News' Reporter Kim Mun-ho.

Someday is at an airport right now

to meet a biochemist that came from Russia through China.

It's still okay. Let's wait a little longer.

We'll show you a video first.

Do you all remember the Dugok-ri Horror last September?

DUGOK-RI VILLAGE HALL

Everyone in a town came down with an unknown disease,

and five of them ended up dead.

There was suspicion

that this was an illegal test conducted by a research team.

We discovered the bacteria while studying water quality.

They deliberately increased its toxicity

to conduct secret studies of its harmful effects on humans.

Why would they do such a thing?

From what I heard, it's to contaminate the water.

It's to claim that a private corporation should manage the water supplies.

In other words, privatization.

It's to convince the public.

Check all the ladies' rooms at the airport.

-Yes, sir! -Yes, sir!

Seo Jeong-hu, where are you? They began the broadcast.

If you can't stop this, you're absolutely done.

Don't do it.

I'm against it. Let's stop here.

What's going on, Reporter Chae?

Who is he?

You may scream.

What's this?

I've secured the package.

The camera.

-Get rid of it! Now! -Come here.

Stop filming.

-What are you doing? -What the...

-Are you nuts? -What is this?

You're dead.

Who are you people?

Push through them!

Are you nuts?

-Yeong-sin. -Back off.

Take the camera!

Ms. Kim!

Yeong-sin!

Let's wrap this up.

Yeong-sin, no!

Stop!

-Call an ambulance! -Jeong-hu!

Jeong-hu!

Call an ambulance! Call 911!

Jeong-hu, please.

Jeong-hu.

A shoot-out at the airport resulted in a death.

He was an assassin hired to kill a whistleblower

during a live broadcast.

Yes, I feared for my life.

KIM JAE-YUN INFORMANT

But people have a conscience.

I had to say something.

It has been revealed

that CEO Park Jeong-dae of Omega Holdings hired this assassin.

This is a video from L.A. that we just obtained.

It shows Park Jeong-dae meeting with a Russian chemist, Nicholai.

The Prosecutor's Office

intends to prosecute Park for the Dugok-ri case.

The assassin that was killed

has been revealed to be a man named Park Bong-su.

He is said to have used several names

and was suspected of many other cases in the past.

Yeong-sin, no!

Stop!

-Call an ambulance! -Jeong-hu!

Jeong-hu!

Jeong-hu!

Jeong-hu...

Jeong-hu!

Jeong-hu!

WANTED FOR MURDER

IF YOU HAVE ANY INFORMATION, PLEASE CALL GANGNAM POLICE STATION

-Chief, good work. -Good work.

You too.

Hello, Chief Kang.

Where are you now?

Five, four,

three, two, and one.

I'm Someday News' Reporter Chae Yeong-sin.

You were in a wheelchair at court yesterday.

Are you better already?

May I ask you a few questions?

Or I'll call your secretary to request an interview!

Things I like.

The sound of his camera shutter,

his big hands,

his smiling eyes,

and deep embrace.

Things I dislike.

All that keeps me away from those things.
