EPISODE 6

SEO DONGJU

[Ihyeon] Mr. Huh.

Ihyeon.

What brings you here?

Right, you're here for patient Seo Dongju.

The chairman is deeply concerned about this.

[sighs]

[♪ suspenseful music playing]

You're here.

I got a call from the chairman.

Did Dongju go for his tests?

[Dosu] Dr. Kang! [panting]

Hey, Dr. Kang. Did you find Director Seo?

[Dosu breathes heavily]

[♪ music ends]

[Yeonju] Is there a way to find Dongju without involving the police?

It'll be faster if we get help from Eunnam's in-laws

than the police, Sister.

[Yeonju sighs]

Director,

even if we skip the police, we must tell the chairman.

No, Dr. Kang.

[♪ tense music playing]

He isn't in the best condition these days.

He can't take a shock right now.

[man over PA] Is money worth more than your life,

Seo Dongju?

[breathes heavily]

Bring me your boss.

The one who said I know the password.

I'll make it crystal clear to that bastard.

That I honestly have no idea.

[man over PA] Is money worth more than your life,

Seo Dongju?

I said I don't know, damn--

Bastard!

[Dongju groans]

[groaning]

[chair slamming]

[Dongju exclaims in pain]

[♪ music fades]

-Mmm. -Is it good?

[Boyeon giggles]

ADMINISTRATOR

Mmm.

I've been waiting a long time for good news.

That should've been done in half a day, but it took longer.

Then again, it's no ordinary item.

Yes, hold on.

[♪ grim music playing]

If he's not someone we can throw out,

you must take him back, sir.

[Jangseon] So, you're saying he's not faking it?

Is that your expert opinion?

Of course, he has to stay alive. It's not that I want him to live.

It's just that I really need what's in his mind.

Honestly, even if I could,

tearing him apart and scattering the pieces

still wouldn't be enough.

That's how much I despise that bastard.

Yes.

[♪ music fades]

I told Dongju

that I'd curse you out for him.

But he said he'd do it himself

and asked me to pray

for your health and happiness.

[♪ solemn music playing]

Please,

help me find Dongju.

Yes, Sister Agnes.

The name "Seong Hyeon"

was Dongju's name

when he was very little.

As he got older, he forgot all about it.

He never recalled it after that.

[♪ music fades]

Director Seo!

Goodness.

[woman] Who are you? [giggles]

What?

[water splashing]

[Dongju groans]

[Dongju gasping]

[Administrator] Seo Dongju,

is money worth more than your life?

[Dongju] The password is…

-[Dongju breathing heavily] -[recorder beeps]

The password is…

One…

Two…

Three…

Four…

Five…

Sixty and seventy thousand,

you bastards.

[chuckling]

[all laughing]

[laughing]

[man 1 grunts]

[men grunting]

[man 2] Hey!

[man 1 panting]

[sighs]

[man 2] Goddammit.

[exhales heavily]

[Dongju choking]

[grunts]

[coughing]

[gasps]

President Huh.

[♪ music fades]

Not the hospital.

Take me to the chairman's residence.

I need to speak with him.

[♪ suspenseful music playing]

[♪ music ends]

[knock on door]

[door opens]

Director Seo!

[Jangseon chuckling]

[♪ tense music playing]

Hmm.

President Huh saved me.

[♪ music fades]

Where's Secretary Gong's porridge?

Chef Do must've forgotten since he's so busy.

The chairman

urgently ordered herbal chicken porridge for Director Seo's recovery.

He has to defrost the chicken in a rush.

It's so much work for Chef Do.

But do native chickens

help with memory loss?

Chef Do!

Yes, ma'am.

Hold off on Director Seo's porridge. Start with Secretary Gong's.

Director Seo is in the chairman's study right now.

[Jaok] Secretary Gong always says old folks shouldn't overdo it

since getting sick just makes them a burden.

You saw what happened.

She smashed the cake

then ran off claiming she was sick when asked to set the table again.

She's always so sneaky about putting herself first…

She walked off while I was talking?

[Jaok tuts]

Sometimes,

Ms. Cha treats people like they're nothing.

Honey.

[Jaok] That's not something you're taught.

It's something you pick up as you grow.

Maybe she never learned since the chairman's wife passed early.

-Remember last time? -Stop.

-Secretary Gong and Ms. Cha… -No…

[♪ whimsical music playing]

I apologize, Secretary Gong.

I'm sorry.

I was wrong. Please forgive me.

Hurry with the porridge.

[Jaepil] Yes, ma'am.

Gosh.

See?

I told you it was odd.

Every time Ms. Cha's name comes up,

Secretary Gong gets angrier than usual.

Please!

My goodness.

If those bastards want the Swiss account password,

then Cheon Guho…

No, they should've kidnapped me instead.

They were so relentless.

At one point, I started to wonder

if I did know the password but lost my memory of it.

No way.

I would've never entrusted something that important to Director Seo, right?

Exactly.

Thank you for saving Director Seo, Mr. Yeom.

President Huh did all the work.

I only provided a few details about Director Seo's abduction, Chairman.

[Gangcheon] Without you,

Director Seo might not have made it out alive.

Always a man of reason, Chairman.

I'll gladly accept your gratitude.

We should report this to the prosecution

and let law enforcement handle it.

Oh, don't worry, Mr. Yeom.

I'll frame it as an abduction by those after Daesan's business secrets.

I'll have my contacts in the prosecution take care of it.

You should step back.

We will handle this.

Father.

I don't think the prosecution can resolve this matter.

No, this is something they--

The things that happened to Director Seo aren't just simple matters.

When I rescued him earlier, I saw a gunshot wound on his stomach.

[Gangcheon] What?

A gunshot wound?

Someone must've shot him…

[♪ tense music playing]

trying to kill him.

Did you really get shot?

[Jangseon] Gosh, these are…

These really are gunshot wounds.

He got shot like this and still survived.

The gods must be on his side.

Who on earth…

I think the shock of being shot caused my memory loss.

Call the prosecution.

[♪ music fades]

Chairman, I don't want an investigation.

The one who shot me…

The one after the slush fund could be someone within law enforcement.

[♪ ominous music playing]

Right now, I'm suspicious of everything.

Mmm. He's not wrong, Chairman.

Please wait until I regain my memory

or at least until I remember anything about the one who's trying to kill me.

To both of you…

I won't forget that you both saved me today.

[♪ music fades]

[Gangcheon] Director Seo is the one who needs to regain his memory,

so we should do as he wants.

Anyway,

I heard you lost your memory as a child too.

How did you recover it then?

What…

You don't remember?

[Dongju] I don't.

Who told you that I once lost my memory as a child?

Your sister told us.

So…

I have a sister.

[Gangcheon] You should meet her,

see your doctor again,

and go back to work.

Try everything you can.

[knock on door]

[door opens]

[Gangcheon sighs]

[door closes]

[Jeongja] It's burdock tea, Chairman.

[Gangcheon] Okay.

I leave it to you, Seong Hyeon.

Yes, I'll take care of it.

Secretary Gong.

Please call me Seo Dongju from now on.

It feels unfamiliar,

but I think I need that name now

more than "Seong Hyeon."

Director Seo will be staying here for now.

Father, it's better for him

to stay in the hospital or his home where he feels comfortable.

No, we can't leave him alone.

No arguments.

If he needs a doctor, bring one here.

Outpatient treatment's fine. Got it?

I understand.

Quite the performance today.

"Someone must've shot Director Seo, trying to kill him."

[Jangseon chuckles]

The shooter sitting right in front of the one he shot.

In any case, you stopped Chairman Cha from involving the prosecution.

Good job.

But…

provoking Director Seo like that

might have suddenly brought his memory back.

Why did you take that risk?

If he remembers the Swiss account password,

my name will come up right alongside it.

Isn't that right, sir?

[♪ tense music playing]

[Jangseon] What's with you today?

You may be quiet,

but you've never been one to beat around the bush.

This thought suddenly crossed my mind.

"I should probably try to kill Seo Dongju again

and bury the fact that I shot him forever."

Seo Dongju's head is worth two trillion won.

Anyone who dares interfere, I won't let it slide.

Give me…

half of it, sir.

Half of it?

You mean half of Seo Dongju's body?

One trillion won.

Half of what's in the Swiss account.

You haven't told Chairman Cha

that the Swiss account is in Seo Dongju's hands.

And I know exactly why.

You're keeping quiet because you're afraid

he will get his hands on the two trillion won in Seo Dongju's head

now that it's up for grabs, aren't you?

You might lose it all. Better to sacrifice half than lose it all.

[chuckling]

You crazy bastard. You're completely out of your damn mind.

I'll give you 10%.

But we need to retrieve the account first.

Then we can discuss whether it's 10% or half. Right?

Is there a need

for such a meaningless discussion between us?

Kill Seo Dongju 10 times, 20 times, 100 times if you want.

Whether you bury him and bring him back just to kill him again, it's up to you.

But first,

secure the Swiss account password.

[♪ music fades]

I must kill Seo Dongju again as soon as possible, sir.

Please understand

how much restraint

I am showing.

[♪ dramatic music playing]

[♪ music fades]

[♪ dramatic violin music playing]

[knock on door]

Yes?

[door opens]

[sighs]

[Jaepil] The chairman made quite the fuss,

rushing me into making this native chicken porridge

to help you get your strength back.

[Jaepil sighs]

You really don't remember me?

I do.

Right?

So you do remember me!

You ran out when the banquet table got overturned…

Gosh.

You recruited me from that soup joint where I was getting chewed out.

Do you seriously not remember?

[knock on door]

Eat up and feel better.

[Dongju] Oh, my bag.

Thank you.

Have a seat.

Okay.

You had this when you first came here.

Most people hate the taste,

but you followed the chairman's lead and drank it anyway.

It made him happy.

After that, you actually grew to like it.

You enjoyed drinking it.

I see.

It might help bring back your memory.

Try drinking it before having the porridge.

[groans] Are you sure I liked drinking it?

[clears throat]

Thank you.

[sighs]

Thank you.

For putting in the effort to restore my memory.

I hope you regain it soon.

-By the way… -That time…

Did you drop the cake

because the name Seong Hyeon startled you?

[♪ mysterious music playing]

[chuckles softly]

I was just exhausted from preparing the banquet.

I got a little lightheaded and slipped.

If I was truly shocked by the name,

I wouldn't have called you Seong Hyeon

in the chairman's study earlier.

I figured you called me Seong Hyeon on purpose.

To pretend you were never surprised by my name.

I had never heard that name before.

So why would I be startled by it?

[chuckles softly]

Because of your memory loss,

you're sensitive to everything around you right now.

I understand that.

But…

I really was just lightheaded.

There was a car accident.

When I thought I was going to die,

someone called out, "Seong Hyeon."

But it was a dream.

But even in my dream,

I instinctively knew they were calling me.

Seong Hyeon…

That must have been my name as a child.

I was told I lost my memory as a child too.

I guess I have a habit of losing my memories.

I clearly saw you react when you heard my name.

You must have a reason for denying it.

Firstly,

I'll start by remembering that I liked raw eggs

and work my way from there.

[chuckles awkwardly]

If you need more porridge…

Over there.

Just use that intercom.

Okay.

[♪ music swells]

[whispering] Cha Deokhui.

Deokhui.

[♪ music fades]

[Deokhui sighs]

[gasps]

[breathing heavily]

[exhales heavily]

[sighs]

[groans]

[exhales heavily]

[♪ rhythmical music playing]

[Dongju grunts]

President Huh.

You used to let me use this bar, right?

When I first got here after my memory loss,

I looked up here from down there,

and it felt strangely familiar.

I just remembered why.

I used to work out over here.

That never happened.

I was up here,

and you were down there.

You looked up at me from down there.

The man doing pull-ups in your memory…

isn't you.

It's me.

You got it mixed up.

[Dongju grunts]

[Dongju chuckles]

Are you sure we never had a pull-up contest before?

Get out.

-Pardon? -Didn't you hear me?

I heard you.

[♪ music fades]

Can I discuss something with you before I go?

All right.

I was hoping to talk to you

since I can't tell anyone else about it.

What is it that you can tell only me?

Well…

[sighs]

Tell me next time. Please leave.

[Dongju] President Huh.

Did you try to shoot me dead?

[♪ tense music playing]

I just want the truth.

[laughing]

Come on, Director Seo.

What's with you?

The few fragments of my past memories

keep telling me that the one who shot me is you.

On top of that, I had a dream last night.

What kind of dream?

I went into the water to save you…

[Dongju gasps, breathes heavily]

[♪ music swells]

[Ildo] Seo Dongju.

Seo Dongju!

Bang!

[♪ music fades]

That's one hell of a dream.

I know, right?

[Dongju exhales heavily]

We hated each other.

I resented and envied you a lot.

Sometimes maybe too much.

And you knew about it too.

With how I treated you,

there was no way you could have liked me.

But you saved me when I was kidnapped.

You saved me from drowning.

Your memory of pull-ups…

Yes, I got it mixed up.

[Ildo] Just like that mistake,

maybe your desperate need

to remember who shot you

made you place me in that role.

But what I still can't understand…

is how vivid…

these memories are.

Like you said,

could it be because I resented you?

I'll get going.

[door opens]

[door closes]

[♪ tense music playing]

[Deokhui] Honey.

[♪ music fades]

Are you done working out already? Why are you here?

Well… I was going to take my herbal tonic.

So you could sleep in.

Even that short walk is a waste of time?

What?

The dumbbell behind your back.

Yeah. You're right. [chuckles awkwardly]

[♪ suspenseful music playing]

[telephone ringing]

Yes.

[Ildo] I realized I don't have your number.

Yes.

I thought of a good way to fix your false memory.

[♪ music ends]

Dad.

I thought you had already left.

I didn't even drink water so I wouldn't wake you,

but you're up already?

Sleep in for once.

You should be the one sleeping in when you're home for a change.

Why torture the soil so early? Even the soil needs a break.

[chuckles]

-Right? -All right.

[chuckles softly]

[car approaching]

We have a visitor.

A visitor? Who?

What?

It's Ildo. [chuckles]

Ildo!

You're here too.

What, you're not here for me?

[Ildo] I'm here for Ihyeon.

I urgently need a favor.

[car door opens]

They're making you wait out here too long.

It's freshly picked cucumber.

The first bite's bitter,

but keep chewing, and it'll turn salty and sweet, with a hint of ginseng.

[chuckles] Try it.

A hint of ginseng.

How's the yard? Looks nice, right?

Landscaping is my job, after all.

Since I travel a lot for work,

the yard gets needy whenever I'm home,

always begging for a touch-up.

[chuckles]

By the way, we've met before, haven't we? Where was it?

Do you remember me?

I swear we've met.

That's right!

Wait, no…

Maybe I designed the garden at your father's house?

You're young, you should remember.

My head is pretty fuzzy now.

Your face is way too familiar…

[Ildo] Don't push him.

He doesn't remember his past.

Dr. Kang has agreed to help you.

If Director Seo was always in Daesan, he and I wouldn't have crossed paths.

How did he end up with memory loss?

[sighs] That's rough.

Hope Ihyeon can be of some help.

Gosh. No matter how much I sleep, I still feel tired.

Drifting around the country like a peddler.

[yawns]

Wouldn't have been so tough if you took the professor job

at Daesan University's landscaping department.

Hey, I used to curse you every day

for seducing your dead friend's wife,

marrying her,

and climbing your way into a rich family.

How could I ever join Daesan University after trash-talking you so much?

When Ihyeon got into Daesan Hospital's residency program,

you know what I told her?

That since my friend, Huh Ildo,

is the son-in-law of Daesan's chairman,

people will assume she got in through connections.

That she should look elsewhere.

Ihyeon stared at me for a long moment

and told me she didn't care what people thought

and that it made her sad

that I was only so cynical about you.

Because I'm not a cynical person.

Gosh.

Over time,

I realized I badmouthed you out of jealousy back then.

Then I thought

Yeo Sunho might be smiling from above,

seeing you and Cha Deokhui doing well together.

You're doing well, right?

I'm not sure.

When people sometimes ask me if I'd want to go back to being young,

I'd flat out say no and wave it off.

But…

when it was you, the late Sunho, Deokhui, and me, all together…

I sometimes wish I could go back,

just for a moment, to our college days.

Do you…

miss those days?

I don't miss those days.

I miss us back then.

Hey, drop me off at that subway station up there.

[♪ mysterious music playing]

I see a doll.

[Ihyeon] What kind of doll is it?

A dog…

Its head moves.

Bobbing up…

and down.

What color is the dog?

[Dongju] A black dog.

No.

A white dog.

Wait…

It's spotted.

Black…

White…

I'm not sure.

The doll disappeared.

Who's driving?

I am.

I'm speeding up.

I have to hurry.

Can you glance at the seat next to you?

A man is sleeping.

My father…

No, wait…

It's me.

Then who's driving?

Because it's pouring…

[Ihyeon] Someone else is driving because of the rain?

[Dongju] No.

Because of the heavy rain,

I have to drive carefully.

Wait.

I don't know how to drive.

There's a little girl in the back.

[Ihyeon] Who is she?

I don't know.

But…

it's a child…

I know.

[Ihyeon] What is she doing?

Sleeping.

Even with all the rain,

she's sleeping so soundly.

[Dongju breathing heavily]

Seo Dongju.

Seong Hyeon.

[sighs]

[♪ music fades]

[Ildo] You're keeping quiet because you're afraid

Chairman Cha will get his hands on the two trillion won in Seo Dongju's head

now that it's up for grabs, aren't you?

You might lose it all. Better to sacrifice half than lose it all.

[phone vibrating]

Yes, it's me.

Worried about the general election?

This isn't our first election, sir.

Yes, the funds are enough.

This is exactly why we set up

that National Patriotism Fund in Switzerland, for times like this.

[phone vibrating]

Yes.

You can trust me.

You have to trust me.

My goodness.

I have an urgent call coming in.

Yes.

Understood, sir.

[line disconnects]

[phone continues vibrating]

PRESIDENT HUH ILDO

Yes, Ildo.

How was your night?

So, how's our two-trillion-won guest

settling into your place?

Hypnotherapy?

Do you think that will work?

I believe it could be the key

to unlocking his memory, sir.

All right.

Hey, Guho.

The Elder wants his money. And our dear junior Ildo?

He's busy hypnotizing a brain worth two trillion won.

Does he think that kind of therapy will bring Dongju's memory back?

My fate must be cursed.

I might as well stab myself for my stupidity.

Keeping that useless Ildo around all this time,

it's beyond pathetic.

Sir.

The shock made him lose his memory.

A similar shock might bring his memory back.

[♪ tense music playing]

Sorry, sir.

You just seemed frustrated.

Cheon Guho.

That's not entirely a bad idea.

Yes. You're right.

I should storm in unannounced and smash his head with a hammer.

[♪ music ends]

[Huicheol] Uncle.

Hey. Heading to work?

[Huicheol] Yes, Uncle.

And your wife?

She's coming. We're having breakfast at the main house.

Okay.

Eunnam, we need to talk for a moment.

[♪ suspenseful music playing]

[Huicheol] What's going on?

I'm not sure.

I heard my father-in-law found Seo Dongju.

Where has he been?

[Guho] I'm sorry. I have no idea.

You should go in. He's waiting.

Okay.

[♪ music fades]

[sighs]

[Dongju] Don't do it!

[Dongju yelling]

[Dongju breathing heavily]

Mr. Seo!

Mr. Seo.

Mr. Seo!

[♪ mysterious music playing]

If you're not hurt, I'll leave you alone.

[door opens]

-[phone vibrates] -[door closes]

I'm Yeo Eunnam.

Can we talk?

[line connects, rings]

[water running]

[breathes heavily]

[♪ music ends]

[Eunnam] I see. Then it might be a bit much for him today.

No. I only told Sister Agnes that Dongju was safe.

Please discuss it with him and get back to me. I'll be waiting.

[line disconnects]

Hey…

When did you start practicing hypnotherapy?

If you don't mind, I'd like to know your experience.

[chuckles awkwardly]

Well…

Before I got my medical license.

I started doing hypnotherapy before I became a doctor.

You saw the scars on my body before.

They're gunshot wounds.

I keep recalling a memory of President Huh shooting me.

I feel very confused right now.

It has to be a false memory.

I heard from Mr. Huh.

On top of that,

I keep having the same nightmare.

Hmm.

I'll help

as much as I can.

Mr. Huh sincerely wants my help too.

You heard about your sister, right?

Yes.

[Ihyeon] She's a nun.

Would you like to meet her today?

[door opens]

Dongju.

[♪ soft song playing]

She's at the chrysanthemum festival.

She's a horticulture expert. You know, flowers and trees.

[cars honking]

[♪ song ends]

She needed a few chrysanthemum pots,

so I offered to deliver them and arranged to meet her here.

Where is she?

Over there.

Yes, that's Sister Agnes.

[♪ solemn music playing]

Dongju!

Seo Dongju!

[tires screech]

[♪ music fades]

[♪ melancholy music playing]

[woman] Seong Hyeon!

[boy] Mom!

[gunshot]

[Jangseon] I don't believe in hypnosis.

Let's face this head-on.

The memory wiped out by shock.

A stronger shock will bring it back.

That's the proper way to do it.

[exhales heavily]

[breathes heavily]

[♪ dramatic music playing]

Buried Hearts

[Jangseon] How did a nobody and the great Yeom Jangseon

get tangled up like this?

[Ildo] Could it be that

Director Seo's memory returned from the shock of his sister's death?

My two trillion won is in that head of yours!

[Dongju] I'm not okay at all.

This pain is unbearable, I feel like dying.

[Ildo] Not even the death of his sister

could bring back his memory!

[Jangseon] The truck driver who caused the accident vanished without a trace.

[Dongju] My false memories of you, President Huh,

will be cleared up soon too,

one by one.
