MISS NIGHT AND DAY

Do you know you're really strange?

You show up late, ask strange questions,

and tell me not to misunderstand

despite giving mixed messages.

Then, you apologize for no reason. What's wrong with you?

I think you're misunderstanding what I'm saying right now.

I'm not misunderstanding you!

-That's not what I meant-- -I promise I won't.

I know how you feel now,

so you can go.

Could you look up the registration for this car?

I don't know!

It's my first time, so I don't know.

I just really like someone,

but I'm worried to death that something might happen to her.

I'm restless. I can't get anything done all day.

I'm so preoccupied that I even forget to take my pills.

I've never felt this way before.

About who?

You.

SEOHAN DISTRICT PROSECUTORS' OFFICE

PROSECUTOR GYE JI-UNG

Mr. Gye called in sick today.

He's sick?

What does he have?

How sick is he?

He doesn't miss a day of work and comes in at the crack of dawn.

It's just surprising.

But it's not very serious, is it?

Well, he usually takes care of himself, but he's come down with a nasty cold.

Let's not think about it.

He has nothing to do with me.

But I can't just rest.

Damn, it's so annoying.

Excuse me?

I was talking to myself.

It was about someone else and not worrying about them.

Who?

Whether it's this guy or that, don't worry about them.

Go! What are you doing?

-What are you doing? -Nothing. The sun is so bright.

We need some blinds.

I know how that feels.

You don't want to think about it, but it bothers you.

The more you try not to think about it, the more you do.

You feel restless and crazy all day. You can't do anything.

I know how that feels too.

Because that's how I feel right now.

Even when I tell myself to stop, I can't.

I know it won't happen, but I can't help it.

I can't even control myself, so how could I tell you to do the same?

PHARMACY

He usually takes care of himself, but he's come down with a nasty cold.

What's wrong with me? I said I wouldn't think about it.

Just go.

Start pedaling.

There's no need for that.

There's no misunderstanding, so don't worry.

And not because you don't want to misunderstand?

He doesn't deserve it.

Serves him right.

Jeez.

Here you go.

-Two pills after meals, right? -Thank you.

Lee Ja-yeon? Okay.

You have no pride, Mi-jin.

Don't get off the bike.

Why did I get off?

I don't like rice porridge.

Darn it.

My goodness!

Damn! That scared me!

But why am I running away?

I didn't even do anything wrong.

Damn it.

You know, without Mr. Gye at the office, it's so quiet and peaceful.

It feels so…

empty.

-Excuse me, ma'am. -Yes?

When someone who rarely gets sick

catches a nasty cold and has to be in bed for days,

I'd like a porridge that will help him bounce back, and make it to go, please.

I'm home.

What's this smell?

Wow, it smells so good.

Mom, I'm home.

-Hey. -Hi.

Wow, look how milky white that ox knee soup is.

Mom, is this the most premium grade?

Yeah.

If someone was suffering from a cold,

I bet a bowl of this would cure them right away.

What? Is someone sick?

No, I'm just saying.

-Ms. Lim. -Yeah?

-Is it done? -What was that?

Are you "Ms. Lim" too?

Well, Mom's busy, so I just answered for her.

-Our girl's so sweet. -Yeah.

Wash your hands for dinner.

It's been so long since you made something this nourishing.

I better wash up fast and dig in.

That's all of it.

-Hey. -Did you give it to him?

No, not yet.

Should I just leave it here?

I said just go in and give it to him.

-You're so frustrating. -Go in?

I'm on my way out, so I'll come down.

What in the world?

Hey.

My contact lens fell out.

Why would I go inside?

Ms. Lee Mi-jin?

-Hello. -Hello.

I was dropping by because Mr. Gye's sick.

-I see. -Wow, I'm cluelessly interrupting!

I only dropped by on the way to my friend's house.

I was about to go up.

I'm sure you were.

Enjoy your visit.

Wait a moment.

No, wait…

Give him this for me.

Did you make all those yourself?

-I did, but-- -What's that?

This is ox knee soup. Can you give this to him…

What brings you here?

I didn't press the bell.

Are you okay?

Go in…

Let's go inside.

Wow. He's got good sense.

DOGAVILL STUDIO APARTMENT

He's so dazzling.

Incredible.

Gosh, it's cold.

Now, where should I go tonight?

Wow.

He's so cool.

What?

What is this?

You haven't eaten anything?

I took medicine, so I'll be fine.

You can't take medicine on an empty stomach.

It's fine.

I should reheat this.

Hot.

That's hot.

Here.

Is that for me?

I guess you like it.

What's this?

Where did all the side dishes go?

Honey!

Come out here!

What? What is it?

-What? -That crazy lady must've been here again!

What?!

I don't believe this!

Where is she? Where?

All the food from the refrigerator is gone!

-No, it wasn't her. -What do you mean?

She even stole every drop of soup I made!

It went to our future son-in-law.

What did you say?

I prepared your meal, so make sure you eat.

Don't go.

My mom…

said she'd come back.

-Mom? -Hey, you were still awake?

Yeah, I was waiting for you.

I told you I'd be late tonight. Go to bed now.

They said the first snow of the season's falling tonight.

No wonder it's been so cold.

How about we make a snowman?

Really?

Really.

You really promise?

I really promise.

I'll be home soon.

-Hurry home. -Go to bed now.

Okay.

That was the last time.

That promise my mom made with me

was the first and last one.

Why was it the last one?

She disappeared.

Everyone told me she died.

Or they said she ran away.

Maybe I wanted to believe it.

I didn't want that promise to be a lie.

That's why I came here to Seohan.

So cool.

What in the world was that?

You're still up?

What? What's wrong?

Who was that person who helped you downstairs earlier?

The investigator?

The investigator!

So that's why he had such a fierce presence.

-Had what? -He looked just like Ko Won.

Like who?

By the way, what's going on with you and Ko Won?

Nothing's going on.

If nothing's going on,

why would he help find the cat? He always rebuffs girls.

No way. Did Ko Won ask you--

I saved his life.

He's just helping me look for the cat in order to repay me.

Nothing's going on. It never will.

I thought you had something on him and were exploiting him.

But is something the matter with him?

He's so depressed right now.

It's like he was dumped.

Come on! He wasn't dumped!

I mean,

there's no way a star like him would be dumped.

It's… ridiculous.

You've finally realized just how precious Ko Won is.

But no thanks.

Because just my love is enough for Ko Won.

Wow! He's so handsome.

I'm going to bed.

-I'm turning off the lights. -Okay.

If Mr. Gye's mom disappeared…

If instead of running away,

she really disappeared…

does that mean Aunt Sun disappeared too?

That tiny elf we met at the pig's trotters place

is the investigator?

I told you.

No way!

But he looked just like Ko Won.

That's how he looked in my eyes.

You didn't wear your contacts, did you?

No, they fell out.

Always wear them. You're asking for trouble.

My Ko Won!

My gosh, I don't believe this!

-No way! -Bye.

This can't be true.

That little elf's really Ko Won? Damn it!

This is ridiculous! How could he be Ko Won?

My Ko Won!

Come in.

You work on the fourth floor. Why are you always here?

It's uncomfortable for us.

Yes, I'll bring down the files you mentioned.

Okay.

Did you know too, Mr. Gye?

Know what?

About Ko Won.

I thought you knew.

Know what about him?

About the person he likes.

So you did know.

The feelings are mutual, so how can you stop them, right?

They're mutual?

Yes, I thought it was one-sided at first, but it seems to have become mutual.

-It's sweet. -Drink.

So make sure to take them.

Come on.

-Hey. -Let's go.

-Wait. -Come on, let's go.

-Ms. Lim. -What's with you?

See? I knew you'd get in.

Watch your head.

I don't know!

It's my first time, so I don't know.

I'm so preoccupied that I even forget to take my pills.

I've never felt this way before.

Are you okay?

She's really dating Ko Won?

At first,

I didn't think it was right either.

But I'll support them now.

Why would you support them?

To be frank, love isn't a crime.

What about the vehicle I asked you to look up?

I checked. It's an unregistered vehicle.

Why are you telling me this just now?

You should've told me right away!

Do I always have to ask first?

What do you do all day?

Jeez!

Yeah, at first…

I'm sure it'll be hard to accept.

Yeah, I understand.

I was like that too.

Hello, Detective Kwon? Where's Baek Cheol-gyu right now?

Hello, Mr. Gye.

He's hiding in the hospital and hasn't come out.

Are you sure he's inside?

I'm sure he's roaming around somewhere inside.

Does he even go home?

He hasn't gone anywhere.

I'm sure he's inside the hospital.

Okay, keep an eye on him.

Yeah, the car with plate number ending in 2953 drove off.

What should I do? Should I stay here?

Okay.

What's this?

Why is Gye poking his nose in everywhere? Damn it.

Hello. Thanks for your hard work.

Yeah.

-Is the dashcam on this car on? -Yeah.

When did the black van parked here with plate number 2953 leave?

It left about an hour ago.

An hour ago?

Look, I'm only doing this because Detective Kwon begged me to,

but it's not like I'm on night watch duty.

Will the culprit even show up if I stay here?

I know it's difficult,

but this is very important.

I'd appreciate your help.

Why is he suddenly being so respectful?

What's the problem here?

It just comes and goes.

Jeez.

Lim Sun's place of residence is Dogavill.

But take a look.

Instead of going home, she went to a different house.

After following her for a few days, I found that she went to that house often.

But the strange thing is…

whenever I'd lose sight of Lim Sun,

a young woman would appear.

I'm home.

I looked into it.

It turns out the house belongs to Lim Sun's older sister.

And the young woman is Lim Sun's niece.

As you can see,

she meets with her niece behind the house.

I don't know why.

But they don't go in together.

What do they do when they meet?

I haven't found that out yet.

They move so quickly.

Any pictures of them together?

None.

They move separately.

Lim Sun disappears without a trace after work,

and Lee Mi-jin only moves after Lim Sun gets off work.

I'm sure the two of them are up to something.

Here's information on her niece.

RÉSUMÉ LEE MI-JIN

Are you sure Lim Sun is that the same woman from 24 years ago?

We should check for ourselves.

Season the bean sprouts well

Hey, by the way…

What?

I mean, well…

What is it?

Look at these bean sprouts!

They're nice and firm.

How nice.

What?

Madame Kwak.

Did you hear she's selling her shop?

Have you lost it?

Why would you suddenly bring that up?

Be quiet!

I mean, I just thought you'd be worried about it.

-Stop! -I barely managed to find out.

Forget it then! Jeez, you're unbelievable.

Absolutely ridiculous. I did it for you and you chew me out.

Where was her shop?

At the intersection of--

You scared me!

Gosh!

When did you get back, Cheong? Goodness.

I was just…

We weren't talking about anything. We just--

Shut up!

We did nothing wrong! Why are you making excuses?

Yeah!

Yeah, that's right. There's no need to make excuses.

Wow.

Goodness. Why would you roll up your sleeves?

It's so chilly.

Don't do this.

Use your words.

RECENTS DOCUMENTS

Should I ask her to come out?

That hurts!

-I have plans. I should go. -Right.

Where do you think you're going?

-Where are you going? -What's going on?

I'll teach you to…

Goodness.

What brings you here, Mr. Gye?

Well, I came in because I heard screams.

I'll be on my way.

-Don't go! -Don't go!

You seem very busy, so--

-No! Come in. -No! Please come inside!

Come on in.

This is what we do for fun.

Honey, shall we clean up now? You help too, Pyeon-gang.

Goodness, I can't believe I finally get a chance

to serve you my precious homemade quince tea.

Thank you.

We should share this precious tea with everyone.

It's all yours.

-Please have some. -Okay, thank you.

Thank you.

Goodness, thank you.

By the way, how do you two know each other?

I'm one of his tenants.

A tenant?

I see. For which place?

You know, the one over there…

What did you say?

So which place?

Dogavill.

I see.

Where Ga-yeong lives? There must've been an empty unit.

Tell her the truth.

Apartment 303…

Where?

Apartment 303.

Are you crazy? That haunted…

How could you put that unit up for rent?

I mean, I was going to give him a discount.

Starting this month,

just pay half the rent.

All of a sudden?

Yeah.

I wanted to be a really good landlord.

All of a sudden.

Hey, did something happen to Director Baek?

He hasn't come in to work for days now.

He must be busy.

Jeez, is that all you can say?

He's a colleague. Aren't you worried?

He's my colleague too.

I've already called him.

He won't pick up or text back.

Still, this isn't normal, right?

Shouldn't we go by his place?

Remember how we lost contact with Ko Na-heun, and then…

And then, look what happened to him.

Good grief.

You still think you're a detective?

Director Baek is different.

Unlike us, he has somewhere to go if he quits this job.

He used to be a director of a hospital, so he's well-off.

We knew he wouldn't stay long as a senior public intern.

I know that, but…

I'd be out having fun too if I were rich.

Just hurry up and clean.

Gosh.

What?

I'm home.

Hey!

Hello.

Mr. Gye.

I told you to stay seated.

Yes, ma'am.

-Hey. -Hi.

Go wash your hands. Dinner's ready.

What's going on?

-I think it's your engagement dinner. -I'll kill you.

Why is there so much?

Dad, where should I put this?

-Here. -Put it here.

-Ga-yeong. -Yes, Mom?

-Sit down. -Yes, sir.

Take a seat.

Sit.

It's not time for alcohol yet.

Do you like it mixed or straight?

What in the world are they doing?

Mi-jin, don't you ever fix your makeup at work?

You try growing old.

-Makeup is suffocating. -Wait.

Look at these bags and your greasy skin.

-Is it that bad? -Yeah. Sit down for a second.

I'll make it look natural. Lips.

What if my parents start saying weird things?

Don't worry. I'll be your defense.

-Okay. -Lips.

-Will they ask weird things? -No.

Even if they do, I have your back.

-Okay. -Don't worry. Wait!

Your greasy face.

-Greasy face? -Why are you so greasy?

Smile. You'll get wrinkles.

-I'll trust you. -Yeah.

-Seriously. I'm counting on you. -Okay.

Okay.

This is what we usually have for dinner.

A simple meal.

Now, let's eat.

-Please enjoy! Thank you! -Thank you for the meal!

Mr. Gye, eat up.

I will. Thank you.

Ga-yeong, take some side dishes with you when you go.

Okay, Mom. Nice! I was out of kimchi too.

That's right.

I made some great ox knee soup yesterday.

But someone ran off with it.

Gosh, I should've given you that.

What a waste.

Are you okay?

Eat slowly.

All right. The japchae's good.

But is today a special day?

Goodness, I almost forgot.

I need to bring the yellow corvina.

Keep eating.

What? What's the matter?

It's your aunt's birthday today.

Then, should we wait until she gets here before we eat?

Actually, my wife's--

Mr. Lee, here.

Have a drink.

-Let me pour it for you. -Should I?

How's work, Ga-yeong?

Yes, of course.

I got 50,000 more subscribers.

I don't know what that means, but it sounds good.

Subscribers for my channel.

I create beauty videos.

Right.

Actually, my wife's--

-Mr. Lee! -What?

I think you've had too many drinks.

-I only had one shot. -It must be the fine dust.

But why is your face so red?

-Am I red already? -Yeah.

But I usually drink two bottles.

That's right. It was two bottles.

That's why I secretly brought some imported liquor for you.

What imported liquor?

It's from a sponsorship. Don't tell Mom.

Come here, Mr. Lee.

-Hurry. -Really?

-Yeah. -What about me?

I'll give you some later.

-What about me? -Just wait, Dad.

Mr. Lee, come on.

Mom, are you okay?

It's nothing. I'm fine.

It's already been years.

I'm sorry I forgot.

These yellow corvina were Sun's favorite,

and I was never able to make this for her.

She'll come back.

I know she will.

I'm sorry.

Goodness.

Let's get back to eating.

To tell you the truth,

this family has a heart-wrenching story--

-Dad! -My goodness!

What?

You're drunk.

You've had too much to drink.

I didn't even have one drink yet, you brat.

Then, instead of soju,

let's drink something expensive.

I have an expensive bottle of liquor just for you.

-I'll give that to you. -Liquor?

-Get up! -Liquor all of a sudden?

I'll give you some! Come on.

Where are we going?

Should we go home? Come here.

-Go home? -Yeah.

-I'll give it to you at home. -We can't leave all that food here. Hey!

I didn't come for this though. She gave me so much again.

How did you get dragged into this?

-I didn't. I walked in on my own. -To see me?

Well, it's just…

I was just passing by, and it happened by coincidence.

So you just happened to pass by here?

To be honest, it's my aunt's birthday today.

The aunt you resemble?

Yes.

She's not here,

but we always celebrate her birthday.

She doesn't have a date of death.

If she doesn't have a…

I see.

Yes.

Hearing about your mother reminded me of my aunt a lot.

I think maybe my mom feels the same…

and can't bring herself to say goodbye to my aunt.

She has a sense of hope that she might come back.

That's why.

There's something I didn't tell you.

-Yes? -I have something to ask you.

Since you're a prosecutor,

I figured you'd know.

SEOHAN PROVINCIAL POLICE AGENCY SUSPECT TO BE PROSECUTED FOR FRAUD

I don't think I should be telling you about this.

So you do know about it.

It's all my fault.

She was born to an incompetent dad.

Her mom pressured her

to get a civil service job that doesn't even suit her,

and she suffered so much.

I just feel sorry for Mi-jin.

No.

You didn't do anything wrong.

It's all my fault.

Hey.

Did you see him out?

What are you doing, Dad?

I was just bored.

Have you been shining my shoes every day?

Just every now and then.

Goodness.

Yeah?

Can I come in?

Yeah.

Were you going to bed?

No, not yet.

It's some money I had saved up.

What is this?

I wanted to buy you an outfit when you got a job.

Just use it however you like.

Dad, it's fine…

I can afford this much, okay?

Take it.

Don't tell your mom.

Today was hard, right?

No, I'm fine.

-Get some rest. -Okay.

-Mi-jin. -Yeah?

You're doing great.

FROM DAD

SEOHAN DISTRICT PROSECUTORS' OFFICE

-Ms. Lim. -Yes?

We got the search warrant for Hwadong.

What?

Let's go get Hwadong Medical Center.

Yes, sir.

Everyone, stop what you're doing. We ask for your cooperation.

Hey! Stop!

We're from the prosecutors' office.

From this moment on,

we will conduct the search and seizure

of Hwadong Medical Center.

Everyone, freeze!

Nobody move!

Please put everything on their desks into the boxes.

Hwadong Medical Center?

Didn't Baek Cheol-gyu used to be the director of that hospital?

Why would they search there?

It might not be an issue with Director Baek.

Then, is it an internal issue?

Ask Lim Sun if you're that curious.

It looked like she went along to help with the boxes.

I knew it.

She gets to work on serious cases as an office assistant.

Some get to carry seized boxes, and others get to carry mops.

Jeez. At your age, you should be grateful for the chance to even hold a mop.

What are you grumbling about?

Give it here if you don't want to work.

There are plenty of others out there who are willing to work.

Who says I didn't want to?

Wait.

It couldn't be related to Ko Na-heun's case, could it?

Who knows?

It's not like the lunatic has a sign on their face saying they're crazy.

Once in a while, those who you'd least expect

end up being the culprit.

I mean, I'm not saying that's true about Ko Na-heun's case.

Goodness.

Some people are mopping like crazy, and others are fixing their makeup. Jeez.

Please have some drinks as you work.

Here you go.

Thank you.

I'm sorry,

but can I check some security footage?

-Security footage? -Yes.

It's not allowed for security reasons.

Of course, not. I know it's not allowed,

but someone keeps dumping trash in front of the deputy chief's office.

-Mr. Cha's office? -Yes.

He's very upset about it.

Who would dare to do something like that?

-I know. -How strange.

Let's take a look.

It's a blind spot, so we can't see.

Okay, then.

Thank you.

I appreciate it.

-Thanks for the drinks. -Sure.

They came here in the middle of the day to deliver the letter.

It's someone who works here.

DIRECTOR BAEK CHEOL-GYU

What are you doing?

When I use my instincts to search…

There was a drawer here?

…I score big sometimes.

There's nothing here.

The fierce presence Ga-yeong mentioned.

Are you okay?

I'll take care of this.

Can you take the boxes?

-The boxes? Okay. -Yes.

Are you okay?

-Could you help me a little? -Sure.

One, two…

-Tell me if you need help. -Okay.

You should take your coat off.

No, it's fine.

It's harder to carry the boxes.

Fierce presence, my foot.

Yes, once the hospital records are done, get a warrant for the director's house.

Okay, bye.

We need to talk.

Why did you really come here?

Why?

People think you're here to take a break, and I would've thought so too

if it weren't for my dad's intel.

What did your successful law firm CEO father say?

You volunteered to come.

But what's to gain here?

I thought about it after the case was reassigned, and something was strange.

There are way more cases to snatch up in Seoul than here,

so why would you come all the way here?

Thanks for the drink.

You didn't come to steal what's mine.

You came here

for my case.

I ended up in hot water because of that.

Thanks to my successful dad,

I can't sleep at night when someone takes what's mine.

Just wait and see what I take from you.

Jeez.

-I'll take care of that if you're done. -It's fine.

-Let me. -I'll throw it away.

Thank you, sir.

Gye Ji-ung?

Gye…

No way.

Ms. Lim Sun?

Hello.

I was very surprised when you disappeared from the ER that day.

Right, sorry about that.

Something urgent came up that day.

Excuse me.

Just a moment.

Take your blood test results while you're here.

-The results? -Yes. This way, please.

Damn it.

SEOHAN DISTRICT PROSECUTORS' OFFICE

Hello, Detective Kwon.

Hello, Mr. Gye.

I think Baek Cheol-gyu is onto us.

We don't know if he's actually in the hospital.

What do you mean?

It was strange how he was nowhere to be found during the raid.

What about his car?

Well, his car's here.

It hasn't moved.

But gosh, this is…

it feels really off.

Check the security footage first.

If he did get out, it'll be on camera.

Or he could've left in another car.

But they're conducting the search and seizure now.

Do you think they'll agree to cooperate?

We'll have to try our best.

Okay, I understand. Bye.

HWADONG MEDICAL CENTER

For crying out loud!

An arrest warrant for what?

Baek Cheol-gyu disappeared as soon as the search started.

What did you find?

We couldn't review the documents yet.

He knows he's guilty of something, so he ran.

You can't get an arrest warrant without evidence!

Then, let me search his home.

For crying out loud!

Are you kidding me?

Gosh, you're so stubborn!

Hey!

If you want a warrant, bring me something! Work all night if you have to!

That's the only way!

Wait.

By any chance, did something happen to Mi-jin?

Why are you asking me?

I'm worried.

If you're that worried about her, then call her.

Don't ask me.

She won't…

answer her phone.

The number you've dialed is unavailable--

CURRENT LOCATION HWADONG MEDICAL CENTER

Hwadong Medical Center?

THERE'S A SENIOR INTERN WHO LIED ABOUT THEIR IDENTITY

HWADONG MEDICAL CENTER

Good job. See you at the office.

-Yes, sir. -Yes, sir.

Have you seen Ms. Lim?

No, we haven't.

The number you've dialed is unavailable--

Where did she go?

Why didn't she say anything?

DOCUMENTS

The number you've…

Where in the world is she?

This is her.

Can you check to see if she was caught on CCTV?

I have to find her.

-I need your help. -Yes, I understand.

-I'll take a picture of this. -Okay.

Here you go.

Did you find the van?

Yes.

We were tracking it,

but it disappeared after leaving Lee Mi-jin's place last night.

It's unregistered, so I think they switched the plates.

There have been a lot of incidents lately.

So just as a precaution, how about thinking of ways

to keep Lee Mi-jin safe?

Well?

Hello?

But if I'm a witness,

why haven't the police called me yet?

-I didn't tell them. -Why not?

-Because of trust. -You don't trust me?

I can't trust the police.

What if you came to the station as a witness, got exposed,

and became a target?

So you should catch the culprit sooner.

Is there anything I can testify to?

Getting involved could put you in danger so listen to me.

Still.

What if they come after me?

We need to catch them.

So until then,

you can trust me.

Lee Mi-jin!

I'll trust you, so keep your promise.

Ms. Lee Mi-jin!

MISS NIGHT AND DAY

Lee Mi-jin!

He said he didn't kidnap Lee Mi-jin.

-No! -Please tell me what happened.

Please. Trust me just this once.

Why didn't you… Are you okay?

Your wife's calling.

No!

We can't be sure about anything yet.

At first,

I couldn't believe it either.

I'll never let someone I care about

disappear again.
