Original subtitles

(Episode 17)

We were just passing by

and we saw the police, so we came to see what happened.

I see.

Did you see anything, Miss? You ran ahead.

She has never seen a crime scene before,

so she's shaken up pretty badly.

She works in entertainment news.

Chae Yeongsin.

Chae Yeongsin.

Let's go.

The person must have died at the scene.

There must have been others there.

Let's go for now. Let's not stay here.

There were others, but I just didn't see them.

What are you thinking?

It's cold.

Chae Yeongsin.

Jian.

Jian, are you okay?

Are you back?

Is he dead? Are you sure?

He apparently died at the scene.

So

you didn't hear anything before Park Dongcheol died?

Does the tape of your father's testimony really exist?

He said it does.

Jerk.

If he were going to die anyway, he should have told us.

But

he said something strange as he was dying.

What?

Three. Nine. One.

What?

Three. Nine. One.

What?

Three, nine, one.

A number? 391?

I don't know.

That's all?

Yes, that was all.

And

she was there.

She saw me.

Have a nice day.

I'll send some of the boys to get Bongsu.

I'll talk to him and you talk to Yeongsin.

She said she'd tell me later

when the time is right. Darn it.

Later when? After all the polar bears are extinct?

Goodness. Kids are like this. The more you press them,

the more they refuse to talk. You've never raised...

Hello.

Chisu, that's the guy Yeongsin always drools over...

Hello. But what brings you...

This is my father.

This is the president of Someday News.

I'm Kim Munho.

Hello, I'm Yeongsin's father.

You haven't told him yet?

Not yet.

Can't we tell him now?

I'd like to introduce myself properly.

Introduce properly? As in...

Dad.

Hold up. I need to gather my thoughts.

So, there is Bongsu, and he wants to introduce...

I

found my biological mother.

They say she's alive and very ill.

So I can't tell her yet that I'm her daughter.

Munho is the one who found me.

I was close to her parents since I was young.

I was there the day she was born too.

My biological dad passed away a long time ago.

And my name is

Oh Jian, Dad.

I just recently found out myself.

I knew I should've told you.

But I didn't know how to start, so...

I'm sorry for only telling you now.

Three, nine, one. 391.

Park Dongcheol's hostel didn't have a room 391.

What about a locker or storage unit?

You want me to search every locker and

storage unit with just "391" to go on?

- Hey. Hello? / - What?

You keep going in and out. Is the reception bad?

Do I?

Are you thinking about Chae Yeongsin?

Why, you think she suspects you?

Then just tell her that

this and that happened.

Call her. I will leave you two alone then.

Okay, I am... gone.

Hey, what's up?

Hey, Park Bongsu.

Jeonghu.

It's probably best to hide the name Seo Jeonghu.

What else should I hide for you?

- What are you doing? / - Waiting for your call.

- Yeongsin. / - You should at least call one more time.

Ask me anything.

Jeonghu.

I'll answer everything.

Are you okay?

It wasn't you, right?

Who are you?

If you don't ask, I can't answer.

What the...

Darn it.

Oh Taewon was released this morning.

It's beyond my power.

We said he's a flight risk so we got a warrant, but

the people vouching for him are of such high caliber.

He was acquitted for insufficient evidence.

Did the detective who was arrested say anything?

Park Gijeong is exercising his right to remain silent.

It won't be easy.

He knows how things work here.

So, that being said...

Help us out a little more.

You know the person who went to Park Gijeong's place

and gathered the evidence and gift-wrapped him for us?

Introduce him to me.

You're ashamed to say this, aren't you?

Regardless, for the record,

I have no idea what you're talking about.

There was a murder last night at a church.

I just got the case file and

your name was listed as a witness.

I was just a bystander

since I didn't see anything.

But this case is strange.

There are so many witnesses.

The name of the deceased is Park Dongcheol and

they say someone asked for him just before he died.

A man in his 20s. Glasses and a hat worn low.

They say he even has great fighting skills.

We didn't even ask

but so many witnesses keep coming forward to testify.

Do you have

any idea what may be going on?

Wow.

They turned the place upside down already.

That means

they are looking for the tape as well.

What if they found it first?

Hey, Lady.

20 years is a very long time.

It is.

Would he have carried that tape with him

not knowing who would come looking for it?

He looked like he moved from place to place.

I bet 50 cents that the tape isn't in this room.

I bet five dollars that he made it all up.

I bet 1,000 dollars that the tape exists.

Do you have a lead?

It's strange. That tape is my dad's testimony.

Then what is in the tape is so obvious.

"I killed someone." Or "I did not kill."

- But? / - But why are they making such a fuss?

Why do they care about what someone said

20 years ago before he died?

Look. Look at all this.

They even killed someone for it. Why?

It's soju, right?

What?

What you give a dead person?

You didn't

go there to look for the tape, did you?

This guy

died because of me.

Open the cap.

I opened it.

Sprinkle some around.

I did.

Drink a little.

I drank it.

Say anything you want to say.

I did.

Ask him what 391 is.

We hit a dead end because he died.

- If you hit a dead end... / - Don't do it.

you must climb over the wall.

That's how you reach the safe.

I said not to do it.

Hey! You! Hey!

Two following on foot, and there is a car, too.

What should I do?

Should I grab one and ask who he is?

Or should I keep the tail?

Hey, Lady.

Are you eating? Why aren't you answering me?

- Hey, Jeonghu. / - What?

Will you take a breath first?

Inhale, and exhale.

What?

Oh Taewon was released.

He was acquitted due to insufficient evidence.

And

I planted a tracker on Chae Yeongsin's phone.

But I think a stranger is accessing it.

I'm not done yet.

I think she's headed to Kim Munsik's house.

What?

And who is in that house?

Oh Taewon.

Reporter Chae Yeongsin?

Hello.

Are those flowers for me?

Right...

Thank you.

My pleasure.

You are very pretty.

You're much prettier in person.

I'm a fan of yours.

Maybe it's because I saw you on the broadcasts,

but I feel so close to you.

- I'm sorry. / - Chae Yeongsin.

I'm going through a lot right now.

Oh my gosh. How embarrassing.

I'm sorry.

I cry easily.

Me too.

Really?

I'm so embarrassed.

This is Oh Taewon.

I need to speak to Boss directly.

Munho said there were

five of you running the pirate radio broadcast.

Ki Yeongjae, whom we did a broadcast on,

was one of the five.

Come here.

These five...

This is Yeongjae.

I've seen this photo before.

Kim Munsik showed it to me.

- When? / - Not long ago.

This is you, and this is him.

And here.

This was my husband.

Oh Gilhan.

I heard he passed away.

Yes, in 1992.

May I

ask you about it?

If I bring it up, will you get sick?

Munho was very worried about.

If I get sick, press this button.

The nurse is in the next room.

- Then... / - Ask me.

From what I heard, of the five friends,

two passed away.

Do you know what happened?

Finally, after 20 years, someone asks

what happened that day.

From what I can see, that Chae Yeongsin girl

came knowing her relationship with Choi Myeonghui.

I don't know how she'll expose it.

If Kim Munsik's wife finds out,

she'll probably leave him.

Then our Kim Munsik will be broken and

we'll have to find another mayoral candidate.

That would look bad, wouldn't it?

What should I do?

If it's to protect President Kim Munsik...

Hello, Boss.

You're the one who makes this guy and

Kim Munsik do bad things, aren't you?

Boss.

I have something to ask you.

Where should I go?

Get rid of this phone.

Wow.

What bad phone manners.

I'm offended, so I'm confiscating this phone.

Hey, Mister.

You know me right?

You came to get me.

Do you remember my master, too?

Ki Yeongjae.

His job was Healer.

You poisoned my master, didn't you?

You know my mom, too, right?

I heard you threatened her recently.

There is a lot I don't know, isn't there?

If I keep you alive, you'll keep doing this.

You'll kill people,

and hurt people,

and threaten them.

And if you are arrested, you'll get out within days

like this time, right?

If I just

kill you,

I'd be doing the world a favor, right?

Can you tell our story?

When you say, "our," do you mean the five friends?

I'll tell you

everything that happened that day in 1992.

Okay.

I'd like you to do a broadcast and report our story.

If Munho permits it, it won't be difficult.

But it will be dangerous.

Those people who tried to kill us then are still alive.

When you say, "us"...

My husband, Oh Gilhan. His friend, Seo Junseok.

My daughter, Oh Jian.

And me.

Thanks, Lady.

Of all I've done for you, what are you thanking me for?

For stopping me from killing someone like this.

I almost became a murderer for killing this monster.

Take a look at this now.

What do you think? Does it look like you?

I think they're determined to corner you

like hunters with a rabbit.

Lady.

My dad is in a columbarium, and I think

each niche has a number

like an address.

I was home with my five-year-old daughter

waiting for my husband who went on an investigation.

Then I got a call. It was Munsik.

Hello?

He told me to just run, that they were coming.

Jian, hurry up and get dressed.

- Jian, let's go. / - Where are we going?

- We need to go. / - Where are we going?

Where are we going?

Where are we going?

This is my daughter, Jian.

I see.

Isn't she pretty?

You're pretty too.

They supposedly call themselves "farmers".

As in farmers that farm the land?

They think they're farming this nation.

They plant barley and corn

and pull out the weeds that get in the way.

And when the time comes, they harvest.

They think that's how they farm this nation.

Where are we going? Mommy?

Stop!

Mommy, where are we going?

Jian, look at mommy. Listen to mommy.

- Do you see mommy? / - Yes.

Don't make a sound, okay?

I'll be right back, so don't make a sound.

Don't say a word, okay? Please. Please, Jian.

Stop!

Stop right there!

My birth mom... My biological mother...

I don't know what to call her, but...

she got sick.

She just fell asleep.

She told me many things before she got sick.

She said she lost me. She didn't abandon me.

Yes. I knew it.

She hid me and ran away

and got hit by a car.

When she awoke in the hospital a few days later,

she couldn't move, so she couldn't look for me.

My biological mother...

The last thing she said to me was

not to say a word.

Maybe that's why I didn't talk when I was young.

I did listen to her, right?

I thought I was abandoned.

She said you weren't.

I must have been scared

that if I didn't smile or

asked something they didn't like,

they would get sick of me

and want to abandon me.

Not

me.

Then

may I ask you?

Of course.

- Jeonghu. / - Yes?

Have you ever killed a person?

No.

I knew it.

But there is something I need to tell you.

What?

I've become a murder suspect.

- Because of last night? / - Yes.

They even have a sketch.

- Does it look like you? / - Not at all.

Then what will you do? Will you run away?

I realize running away doesn't resolve anything.

What should we do first?

First, I need to find my dad's tape.

I'll help.

I'll find the punk who framed me.

I'll help with that, too.

I need to go see your dad.

That's...

That's the hardest thing for me.

Do you know how many people

have gone missing in Korea in the past six years?

It's 30,000.

If they've been missing for over five years,

they are technically off the list.

To be blunt,

they are declared dead.

If someone famous like Reporter Kim Munho went missing,

do you think it would be a big deal?

No, it won't even last two days.

People don't remember

other people's business for so long.

Munho is my brother.

I'll talk to him.

I won't change our mayoral candidate again.

It looks bad.

I know, Sir.

Our next plan is just about to begin.

I know that we can't allow any errors.

If what happened 20 years ago holds you back...

That won't happen.

I will do it.

Did Jeonghu come by?

Chae Yeongsin did as well.

Ms. Choi doesn't know who Chae Yeongsin is yet.

But

they talked for so long. I don't know about what...

It must be so hard for Myeonghui.

Someone so weak ordered a wiretapping device

and called Munho in secret.

To think she was so scared all night...

Will you leave her alone?

You know what she's doing.

It's okay. She'll come back.

She's just worked up because of a new game.

I just wish she'd take better care of herself.

You were right.

Your dad's niche number is 391.

It's 391.

Then the tape of Junseok's testimony is in there.

We need to go take a look.

Are those rats still tailing you?

Yes, they are.

Yeongsin, why don't you get out of his way?

You'll only become baggage for Jeonghu.

That's not necessarily true.

I like you, Lady.

I finished cleaning up Yeongsin's phone.

What about the guys following?

We need to find out whose boys they are.

You've been a wanted man for too long.

You're so experienced that you're laid back now.

What if they call the police on you?

That's right.

Yeongsin.

If I'm about to be arrested, pretend not to know me.

You may be mistaken for my accomplice.

Okay.

Darn it!

Yeongsin.

Can you run?

100 meters in 17 seconds.

Of course, that was in high school.

What do you do if a fight breaks out?

Close my eyes and wait. Jeonghu will take care of it.

That's right.

And if you can, hide in a corner.

It's easier to shield yourself that way.

A corner if possible. Okay!

Wait. Don't make eye contact.

You can follow me, but keep a distance.

I need to work too.

Yeongsin.

- Run. / - Where to?

Keep going in the same direction.

Picture.

Picture.

Watch your foot.

Picture.

Picture. Okay. Legs. Legs!

I know you. Hello.

- Seatbelt. / - Okay.

I told you, just drive.

But there are so many. Darn it.

These are new faces.

It will take time to figure out who they work for.

Check the footage of nearby security cameras.

I think he's headed somewhere.

Yes, Sir.

- Hey, who is she? / - His girlfriend.

My vote is on girlfriend.

One more vote on girlfriend.

Who is she?

The head of department at ABS. Kang Minjae.

Then she's my rival.

She's my counterpart.

For sure

she is his girlfriend. No question about it.

Do you want some coffee?

I'm in charge of Kim Munsik's interview.

I hear you're preparing a counter-program.

That's right.

You'll discuss Omega Holdings, won't you?

That is Kim Munsik's moneyline.

You know better than anyone

that you can't touch Omega.

That was true at the station.

Your broadcast won't air.

We're prepared.

If you try to stop us, we'll air that as well.

The more you try to stop us, the more it helps us.

Nice, right?

I take back what I said before.

I said you fight just enough not to get hurt.

Munho, that's the smart thing to do.

That way, you can fight for a long time.

Let's go slowly.

Slowly, and for a long duration.

I'm having fun now.

When I opened my eyes in the morning...

In the past, I was like

"Gosh, I need to get through another day?"

But now, when I wake up, I think

"Okay, what should I do today?"

"I wonder what the bad guys are doing."

What about you?

They are always above us.

How is that possible?

Because we live by the book, but they don't.

You cannot beat them.

But

if I quit because if I can't win,

I'd be ashamed in front of the kids.

I don't want that.

That's it. I think that's the car.

That car is suspicious too. It's been following us.

But it doesn't pass us and just maintains the distance.

It's totally suspicious.

Suspicious.

What?

No, it is nothing.

Go straight now.

You'll arrive at the columbarium in about 10 minutes.

How are things over there?

May I help you?

For sure... she's his girlfriend.

So complicated.

Don't turn around.

I came here with Master

about eight or nine years ago.

Do you know what he said?

"Your dad isn't here anyway."

"We don't know where he is."

"But still,"

"you need to know in which direction to greet him."

"Let's just greet him here."

That's what he said.

Found it.

This is my dad.

Dad, this is Chae Yeongsin.

You probably know her as Oh Jian.

Hello.

Miss. Miss? Miss!

Someday is doing its third broadcast.

What? Weren't we doing it with Kim Munsik's interview?

We got new information and it's been confirmed.

We need to release this information as soon as possible

Now, before they can interfere.

- Now... / - Now? A broadcast?

What about the information I prepared?

Publicize it using all venues possible.

Someday's third broadcast's title is

"Exposing the puppet master controlling"

"the puppet Kim Munsik."

I've prepared a video and images of an interview.

We'll add on a little more and begin the broadcast.

The important thing is how many people watch this.

What do you think?

The strife between the brothers, Kim Munsik

and Kim Munho, is very popular.

It won't be difficult.

And the SNS power users are on standby. Right?

How much time do we need for the broadcast?

I don't know how long we will be able to last.

Will you be okay?

No problem.

Let's say our goodbyes and go.

Close in and force them somewhere with no cameras.

I called earlier.

Those people are leaving. They went to the entrance.

They are gangsters. I'm sure of it.

I heard them say they have to abduct that woman.

Do we know each other?

Or do you have something to say?

What you just picked up.

So if I give that to you, we can go?

I don't think so.

You don't think so.

- Yeongsin. / - Yes?

Close your eyes.

Run.

Hey!

Yeongsin, throw it!

There was another lonely death.

Park Dongcheol...

He was a detective burning with a sense of duty.

One day in 1992, he heard the testimony of

a murder suspect in an interrogation room.

Do you remember Ki Yeongjae, the subject of

Someday's second broadcast?

He and Seo Junseok, who was in

the interrogation room in 1992 were

a part of the same pirate radio broadcast.

And like Ki Yeongjae, Seo Junseok also

died in the interrogation room.

Give me the tape.

Fine. I'll give it to you. So let's talk this out.

You two move!

I'm bleeding!

How could you? Wait. Wait!

Let me meet Boss.

Tell him I'll give him the tape and

the L.A. video files as well.

Call him. He'll respond, I'm sure.

And tell him this, too.

"Healer would like to side with Boss."

I know Boss wants to meet me.

You hit me too hard.

It hurts so much.

Newspapers printed a short article about it.

They said Seo Junseok committed suicide

because he was overcome with guilt

after killing his friend.

Oddly enough, the stories of two friends

are very much alike despite the 22 years of gap.

Both deaths were caused by poison.

One was suicide, one was murder.

But Park Dongcheol, who had questioned Mr. Seo said

something entirely different.

The testimony we received was

different from the one submitted.

It was a complete work of fiction.

So what did we do?

We reported it to Internal Affairs.

What do you think happened to us next?

I heard you were kicked out.

Park Dongcheol was kicked out for

blowing the whistle on the matter.

But he kept an audio tape for the past 22 years.

It was of Seo Junseok's testimony.

I suspect Park Dongcheol was killed by the people.

trying to destroy that tape.

Because the 22-year-old tape that he gave us

just before he died had

some incredible stories about them.

What a nice house.

Who are these people he refers to?

He's coming.

Our Someday reporter went somewhere

to ask just who they are.

This person is only referred to as "Boss".

Hello.

Where have I seen him before?

I know I have.

I listened to your dad's testimony.

Jeonghu, this is plenty. Come back.

Let's proceed as planned. Let's go all the way.

Kiddo, who are you?

When you kill people from now on,

think about their sons and daughters.

Make a right at the intersection.

Is it hard to just live like ordinary people?

Will it be hard for me?
