Excuse me, can I ask you something?

Is there a patient by the name of Heo Yun-jae…

Sorry, I'll come back later.

Heo Yun-jae!

Yun-jae?

Oh no…

Yun-jae…

Sis!

Hey, Yun-jae…

Ma'am, please wait outside.

It doesn't look like I'm dead yet.

OPERATING ROOM ENTRANCE

Are you having an out-of-body experience?

Well, in any case, that's a relief.

At least you're still alive.

So hang in there, Yun-jae, okay?

Do you know my brother?

LABOR ATTORNEY NO MU-JIN

They just called and asked me to come, so I'm not sure what exactly happened.

I heard he collapsed at work and was rushed here.

What did the hospital say?

They're still running tests, so they're not sure just yet,

but I was told he's badly dehydrated.

Dehydrated?

Did anyone from his company come?

Someone from Rimo World Mart did come by earlier.

Rimo World Mart?

Yes.

He recently said that he got a job and told me not to worry anymore.

It was a different company,

so I'm not sure why he was working at a superstore.

Yes, I heard he got a job too, but a superstore?

Do you know if Yun-jae was sick or unwell anywhere?

Not that I know of.

Oh, and…

I'd like to look into how Yun-jae ended up collapsing at work.

Would you consider appointing me as your labor attorney?

Oh, right…

But will your fee be quite expensive?

We have the hospital bills, and Yun-jae and I aren't doing well financially.

You don't need to worry about my fee.

He gets a friend discount and a subscriber discount,

so there'll be no fee this time.

Really? Are you sure that's okay?

Of course.

Thank you so much.

By the way, how did you know Yun-jae was here?

I came to visit someone and met Yun-jae by chance in the lobby…

I mean, saw him get wheeled in.

To visit someone?

We have to upload at least one video a week, but it's going to be late.

Let's post that it'll be late.

Do I look okay?

Hello, big brother.

Are you okay?

You said you were here ages ago. Where have you been?

- You really have awful timing. - Timing for what?

Mi-joo just left.

I thought I might get to see you two reunite after so long.

- Bummer! - Bummer!

So Mi-joo was here? When?

Why? Planning to go after her? It's a bit late for that.

You said you were dying from the pain, but you look lively enough.

We were really about to die earlier.

What kind of mukbang were you filming that it led to food poisoning?

- Naengmyeon. - Naengmyeon.

Naengmyeon?

I think the boiled egg in it had salmonella.

Stuff was coming out of both ends, and I was sweating and shaking.

Anyway, it was my first time in an ambulance.

- I see. - It was fascinating.

I should've filmed it. It would've gotten a lot of views.

You're talking about view counts when we almost died?

There's nothing more dramatic than a life-or-death situation.

Isn't that right?

Nothing really comes close. So? When are you being discharged?

Our inflammation levels are down, so we can go when this is done.

That's good.

So, where have you been?

I met a patient in a more serious condition than you guys.

Someone on the brink of death.

Really? Who?

Yun-jae's in the ICU?

Yes, he's in a coma right now.

But why? He was perfectly fine just a few days ago.

Big brother, you can even see coma patients now? Not just the dead?

That's amazing. You keep leveling up.

- Feeling jealous? - Not at all.

But why did Yun-jae appear before you? Is it like an out-of-body experience?

That's true. Did he say why?

I don't know. He just took off somewhere. I can't see him.

Why?

I wouldn't know.

But the expression I saw on his face is weighing on me.

But how did he get dehydrated? I thought he got into a huge company.

Rimo World Mart is a huge company. A global one.

No, the company name was…

What was it again? Forcel or something like that.

What? Forcel?

Do you know them?

- Hold on. - What is it?

Forcel.

It's here, right?

I read this article recently.

They revoked all job offers just before people were due to start.

What's wrong with this company?

Applications, personality tests and job skills assessments,

first, second, and final round interviews,

and the medical checkups were all completed,

but they just suddenly canceled the job offers?

Are they crazy? What kind of company does that?

There were cases where canceling employment via text on the first day

was ruled as wrongful termination.

I didn't expect this to happen to Yun-jae. He was really happy he got a job.

This is so messed up.

Is that why he got a job at a superstore?

But what can you even do, Mu-jin?

Though he collapsed at work, we can't be sure it was work-related.

Come on, Hui-joo. It's basic human decency.

He's not a stranger. We shouldn't turn our backs.

Human decency, my butt.

You said nothing's more dramatic than a life-or-death situation.

You're clearly doing this for views.

What do you take me for?

He's our age, so I feel bad.

I feel bad too, but what can we even do for him?

This is really weighing on me.

I say we look into this.

This is a global company, so it's hard to get in. Employee retention is high too.

Really? He's landing jobs left and right. He's pretty capable.

Yes, hello. I'm the labor attorney who called you the other day.

We're here now. Where should we go?

The parking lot? Not the office?

Right, okay.

- So, Yun-jae was pushing carts here? - Yes.

People usually start part-time,

but we luckily had an opening, so he got hired as a full-timer.

It's a temporary role,

but with hard work, it can lead to a permanent desk job,

so he worked especially hard.

You said you were the first one to find Yun-jae.

Where was he? And when?

Over there.

Yun-jae, what's wrong?

Are you sick?

He didn't respond, so I went up to him.

Yun-jae!

God, what's wrong?

Excuse me!

Yun-jae!

He was unconscious, so I called for help right away.

One, two, three!

You're pushing this many carts by yourself? They look super heavy.

How many kilograms is one cart?

One cart? Around 20 kg.

What, 20 kg? Then how much does all this weigh?

- At least 400 kg! - Wow!

- What's your weight? - How's that relevant now?

- Let's move. - Okay.

Let's go!

Was there anything unusual about Yun-jae that day?

He mentioned the day before that he felt dizzy and had tightness in his chest.

It was hot and we were both too busy to take proper breaks,

so I thought it would pass.

Then, how much break time do you get?

It's 15 minutes every three hours,

but it takes time to get to the break room,

so we don't get to rest.

On days with heat wave alerts,

we're supposed to get 10 to 15 minutes of rest every hour,

but they say the heat index isn't high enough,

so it's rarely followed.

It's so hot here. Don't you have any air conditioning?

We used to, but now we don't even have that.

This isn't fair.

They get to work in fully air-conditioned rooms.

Since you mentioned it,

we said among ourselves that someone might pass out at this rate.

I've also lost two toenails while working…

Mr. Kim Won-sik!

Aren't you supposed to be working?

I…

Who are these people?

Hello.

I'm labor attorney No Mu-jin.

A labor attorney?

Yes, I'm here about Heo Yun-jae. Could we talk for a minute?

Sure.

You say he was dehydrated,

but isn't that a fairly common condition during the summer?

So it's common to pass out and lose consciousness from dehydration?

What I mean is,

there isn't enough evidence

to say the company is responsible for his collapse.

By the way,

the AC is on full blast here, so it's almost freezing.

But in the parking lot, you sweat standing still,

and it's so hot you can barely breathe.

He collapsed after pushing carts back and forth in that sweltering heat,

and the company isn't responsible?

A healthy young man in his twenties

collapsed from dehydration just two weeks after starting work here

and still hasn't regained consciousness.

We feel that maybe his working conditions were too harsh…

Too harsh?

Just ask the other employees.

Retrieving carts is a standard task

even people in their forties and fifties can manage.

How is stringing carts into a train and running back and forth

a standard task?

Even special forces couldn't manage that.

True. I was an elite soldier in the army, but I would struggle with such a task.

And with only a 15-minute break every three…

I think you might be misunderstanding something.

We're not here to argue with you about whether the work was hard or not.

As Mr. Heo Yun-jae's legal representative,

we came to get a clear picture of what happened to him.

Since Mr. Heo started working here…

No, we'd like to review the CCTV footage of even just the past three days.

- That won't be possible. - Why?

As you probably know, we're a foreign-owned company,

so we need approval from the head office due to security concerns.

This is ridiculous.

Even if the head office is in the U.S., this is Korea, isn't it?

Can they do this here?

They're doing this exactly because this is Korea.

You still don't know

after all the videos we made and companies we've investigated?

You always show off about the weirdest things.

God, it's hot.

So, what are you going to do?

Well, first, if we can prove this was work-related,

we should go to the police or the Labor Office

to ask for their cooperation.

They may be an American company,

but their Korean branch is still subject to Korean law.

That's true.

If the authorities get involved, they won't have a choice.

I'll email their head office.

- Great. - Oh, come on.

Like they would read that.

We'll make them.

- How? - I have something in mind.

Come with me.

Excuse me!

I don't think we got the chance to thank you.

Thank you for making time for us today.

Thank you.

Oh, right.

And it doesn't have to be about this,

so please feel free to contact me anytime.

Right, okay.

YUN-JAE'S TEST RESULTS ARE OUT

Yun-jae's results came back.

Why did you kick it there?

Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday to you

- Happy birthday, Uncle Yun-jae - Our Yun-jae

Happy birthday to you

Yu-chan!

Why did you do that? It's Uncle's birthday.

Hey, who cares? It's fine, Yu-chan.

Uncle, I have something for you.

- Hold on. - Really?

When did you prepare all this?

You like japchae, so eat up.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, UNCLE

Are you giving this to me so I'll become rich?

Yeah, it's my gift.

Thanks, Yu-chan.

Come here.

You can save up in there and give it to me on my birthday.

What?

Is that a gift for your uncle or for yourself?

Okay?

Okay.

Promise.

Promise.

Yu-chan.

- Bye. - Let's go.

Did you have fun?

Yu-chan…

I'm sorry I couldn't keep my promise.

We visited

the superstore where Yun-jae worked.

Then…

did he get a job in that parking lot because his job offer was canceled?

Yes, I think so.

I don't believe this.

How hard must the work have been

for that healthy kid to suddenly collapse and lie unconscious?

We'll prove that this was work-related and…

I'm scared that he might not wake up soon.

He's young. I'm sure he'll get better in no time.

Yes, honey.

No, not yet.

And Yu-chan?

Sorry.

Then what do you expect me to do?

I'm struggling just as much.

Why are you being like this?

Hey, Yun-jae!

Where have you been? Why are you so hard to meet?

Why would you want to meet me?

I get that you're upset, but you're still alive.

Your sister's worried about you…

- Maybe I should just end things here. - What?

I think that'd be better for me and my sister.

What do you mean?

After our parents died,

my sister went through a lot because of me.

- I can't burden her any more. - No, you waking up is…

Even if I wake up,

I'll just be in more debt with these hospital bills on top of my student loan.

No matter how hard I struggle, nothing will change.

Sometimes, before I went to sleep, I'd think…

it wouldn't be so bad if I didn't wake up again.

I understand how you feel,

but even if things are tough now, if you keep working hard…

Keep working hard?

I read somewhere that

the world claiming hard work never betrays you

is what makes us suffer more.

Just because I failed, it doesn't mean I didn't work hard.

Failing to succeed doesn't mean I wasn't desperate.

In this world, it's more common for hard work to go unrewarded,

and no matter how desperate, some things aren't meant to be.

Yun-jae,

you're still much too young.

I worked really hard my whole life.

While people spent money to build up their résumé,

I worked hard to make money and studied like crazy.

I finally got a permanent job and thought my part-time hustle was over,

but it's my life that seems to be over now.

Don't bother with someone like me.

No matter what you say,

I'll do my job as a labor attorney, so you stay out of it, okay?

I'll gather evidence. Once your workers' comp's approved…

Workers' comp?

What difference would getting that make?

With the compensation, you can get treated and go back to…

That's what I don't want!

Going back to my old life.

What?

I'm burned out.

I want to rest.

Yun-jae.

YUN-JAE'S SISTER

Mr. No!

Yun-jae…

His condition has gotten worse. They say he needs surgery right away.

What do I do?

Our poor Yun-jae.

He's been through so much already.

Oh, Yun-jae…

LABOR ATTORNEY NO MU-JIN

They're not replying.

But, still…

Mu-jin! How did it go?

The surgery went well.

That's such a relief.

Any word from the head office?

They won't even read the email.

You said you had something in mind.

I did have something in mind, but I don't think they do.

Yeah, right!

All he did was go on their social media account

and comment "please check your email" on all the posts.

Like some blackmailer.

Why not try calling them?

- I did. - And?

No answer. It kept going to voicemail.

That's all I keep hearing.

- Your pronunciation is really good. - Thank you.

So if, like you said, Yun-jae's condition is getting worse

because he's lost the will to live, that's a huge problem too.

Even if the surgery went well, if…

My lovely Hui-joo, let's not go there.

I'm sure Mu-jin will talk him around.

God, this is so hard.

Where did he even go?

Mu-jin.

If you find it that hard, why don't you ask that jeans guy? The bodhisattva?

That's true. Your contract is about helping dead souls.

Yun-jae isn't like the previous cases, so ask him for advice.

No, but…

It's not like he just appears when I have questions for him.

Really?

- Hey! Mu-jin! - My gosh.

Then why don't we summon him?

Summon him? How?

I have an idea.

Bunshinsaba, bunshinsaba.

Bodhisattva, are you here with us?

Again.

Bunshinsaba, bunshinsaba.

Bodhisattva, are you…

God, seriously!

What the heck are you doing? Like this would work!

Then what are we supposed to do?

Wait a minute.

Every time you met the bodhisattva,

you were either unconscious or at death's door, weren't you?

So?

That's true. You're right.

That means…

What? I don't get it.

- Mu-jin. - What?

We thought of a great idea.

- No, don't think of anything. - So clever.

Just don't think, okay?

Best not to think at all.

Hui-joo.

What is it?

This is so strong!

Why do you have a Taser? Where did you get that?

Big brother.

- It was a gift from me. - What?

Not long after we met,

I didn't know her that well, so I figured she'd need it.

Turns out she doesn't.

Guys, this is…

This isn't right. Put that away, okay?

Oh, come on!

Gyeon-u, this is too powerful. We can't. It's too cruel.

- You think? - You're both crazy.

If he's scared of the Taser, how about that?

- How about what? - What?

What are you doing?

You're really smart today.

- Thank you. - Let's go.

- Let's go. - What? Go where? Why split up?

Gyeon-u.

- Mu-jin. - What are you doing?

- Can you look at him for a sec? - Why?

- Big brother! - Jesus Christ!

Gyeon-u, grab him!

Wait, Gyeon-u!

- Hui-joo! - I'm sorry, Mu-jin!

- Gyeon-u! - I'm sorry, big brother!

You…

Bunshinsaba, bunshinsaba?

The things you do.

Wow, this really works.

You know it wasn't my idea.

What if you really died doing that? Why did you do something so reckless?

Would it hurt you to think that this is how desperate we are?

All right.

What made you so desperate?

So, how…

can we save Yun-jae?

Why would you ask me?

Who else would I ask?

I don't deal with the living.

Then why send him to me?

I did no such thing, so figure it out on your own.

How am I supposed to do that?

Then at least tell me how I can find him.

He keeps disappearing when I try to talk to him.

Maybe he has places he wants to go.

He'll have to come back to his body eventually.

He can't be away for too long.

I was just about to take a break after working nonstop.

I need work-life balance too, you know.

You can't just show up here anytime you want.

- Now, go. - Go?

I risked my life to come here, and you expect me to just go?

You guys can handle this one without my help. So good luck.

What's that? Damn it.

Did you meet him? The bodhisattva?

Not only did you kill me, you hit me again, didn't you?

We just thought you weren't able to wake up.

We haven't even hit you yet!

She's right. No slapping yet.

Big brother, do you know how hard our delicate Hui-joo hits?

It's a relief you woke up quickly.

Your mouth's really getting on my nerves today.

This is a workplace injury. Assault and harassment in the workplace.

What if I'd actually died?

I just used a technique to knock you out for a bit.

Anyway, what did he say? Did you meet him?

Yeah, I did meet him.

- And? - And?

We're on our own.

- He said we'll manage. - That's it?

What is with you two today? Why are you so in sync?

Yeah, that's it. He said we can do this without his help.

- Wait a minute. - What?

Did you really meet him?

- I did. - I don't think you did.

I bet you're lying so I won't hit you.

Gyeon-u, do something about her. She's being weird again.

- I did meet him. - Hui-joo, let it go.

Wait…

- We need to know if he met the jeans guy. - Sorry, Hui-joo.

- Don't stop me. I think he's lying. - Sorry.

You're right.

Forty-three thousand steps?

Hey, guys.

Yes, big brother, what is it?

I got a message from Yun-jae's coworker at the superstore. The one we met.

He sent me Yun-jae's walking log.

Forty-three thousand steps?

Yun-jae was new to the job and not used to it,

so he probably found the heat much harder than us.

We haven't worked together for long, but I couldn't just stand by.

Mu-jin, this could count as evidence too, right?

Yes.

The bodhisattva said we can manage on our own.

Then let's do what we always do.

Right. I have an idea. Let's try that first.

- Let's share that idea first. - Let's do that.

STORE ENTRANCE

I can't do this anymore. This is exhausting.

Where did she go? I told her to film.

Damn it.

I thought we might die from the heat out here,

so I went inside to get some drinks.

But you're already grumbling?

I wasn't really grumbling…

Seriously!

Hui-joo, look at this.

My blood pressure and heart rate shot up in a few hours.

Right, look at how much you sweat.

You need to cool down. You'll get sick.

Hello.

Hello.

I thought you two were filming a drink commercial.

You think so too, Chief?

"Chief"?

Chief, please have one.

Thanks, but I'll need the restroom if I drink that.

It's quite far, you see.

But you're sweating so much. You need to stay hydrated.

It's the weekend today, so people will start flooding in soon.

- I don't have time for the restroom. - But still…

It really is hot today. It's supposed to hit 35°C.

- What? - The heat index is…

It's 39°C!

No wonder it's so hot.

But ever since Mr. No came by, they've been acting like they care.

Really?

They made sure we used our breaks and even offered grievance counseling.

So I thought things were changing thanks to Yun-jae,

but things went back to the way they were after a few days.

By the way…

it's fine for you to try this out,

but don't let people see you filming.

Then maybe I'll shoot from way over there.

- I'll go. - Yeah.

Go right to the end.

Okay.

Also…

Oh, gosh.

Please pretend I don't know anything.

Of course. Don't worry about that.

- Then, good luck. - Thank you.

Chief.

You're really sweating a lot. Maybe you should rest.

It's fine. This is routine for us.

What is this?

Damn it!

God damn it!

Oh, man…

No, my car!

Damn it.

Hey, you!

Come over here.

- Me? - Yes, you. Come here.

Hurry up, kid.

God. You scratch my car and just take off?

Me? When?

"When?" Playing dumb, are you?

Hey, look here.

What's going on?

See this scratch here?

Who pushes carts around where cars are parked?

What are you gonna do about this?

- But I was going in that… - Hey!

I saw you crash into the carts by yourself.

It's all recorded here too, so what are you talking about?

And who are you?

I'm a content creator who exposes rude customers.

I was thinking, "Where would I find today's lowlife?"

And here you are.

How about it? Want to make an appearance on my channel?

Hey, turn that camera off.

Consider yourselves lucky this time!

What the hell is this?

Damn, just my luck. Get out of the way, you punk.

- Who is he calling a punk? - That's my Hui-joo.

Geez…

God, seriously!

Go on.

Let's watch our undercover footage.

Hi, everyone. Gyeonjjang TV here.

Last week, a worker in his twenties employed by a superstore

collapsed while he was working.

During last week's sweltering heat,

this young man worked at a superstore,

pushing more than 20 steel carts at a time, each one over 20 kg.

Every day, he covered around 20 km, as many as 30,000 to 40,000 steps a day.

The day before he collapsed,

he said his chest felt tight and he found it hard to breathe.

In the end, the young man collapsed in the parking lot where he worked.

He collapsed due to a pulmonary embolism.

The heat and grueling labor without rest led to severe dehydration,

causing a blockage in the vessels to his lungs.

To find out why he collapsed and what his working conditions were like,

I experienced his work firsthand.

The temperature of this parking lot was 2°C higher than the official reading,

and the heat index approached 39°C.

Out of the 15-minute break given every 3 hours,

only five minutes remained after the round trip to the break room.

Despite the heat, the company did not provide any water.

Not only was the water dispenser too far to use,

employees avoided using it to cut down on trips to the restroom.

Another point to note

is the high temperatures in the three days before his collapse.

It was 32.1°C on the 14th, 33.3°C on the 15th,

and 35.2°C on the 16th.

Heat wave alerts were issued on the 15th and 16th.

The Ministry of Employment and Labor recommends

fifteen-minute breaks for every hour during heat wave alerts,

but the company did not offer these breaks.

With proper staffing, guaranteed break times,

and basic considerations for workers,

this young man's collapse could have been avoided.

Reporting from the scene…

This was Gyeonjjang TV.

- What do you think? - Spoken like a true ex-reporter.

- This'll get some attention, right? - Yes.

Experiencing it firsthand, with the car heat and all the fumes,

it really was tough, big brother.

Yes, you did well. Good job.

Please give me a pat. You said I did well.

It's not really my thing.

Enough, both of you.

Now, shall we upload?

Okay.

Come closer.

I believe in subscribes and likes.

What in the world is this?

He could've had water. He wasn't marching, so why the dehydration?

Kids these days are too spoiled and frail.

He must've been out of shape to pass out pushing carts.

It's 15,000 steps for just four hours of golf.

Who collapses over that?

Because of people like him trying to game the system,

honest workers like us get a bad rep…

Am I the only one who doesn't get this? Are they all psychopaths with no empathy?

Hui-joo, don't get worked up.

Breathe and calm your anger. You know the Lamaze technique?

Good job. Again.

I'm not giving birth here.

What I don't understand is

everyone's in the same boat, but they're so bent on criticizing others.

Do they get a thrill out of writing comments like that?

"Health issue"?

Health issue?

I tried it myself, and even a healthy person would collapse in this weather.

People are so mean.

I know what this is.

The store is paying commenters to spin the story, aren't they?

They might have, but would that be everyone?

Yun-jae said he recently had a health checkup.

Really?

So if we have those results, they won't say nonsense like this.

Exactly.

Let's go find that first.

The surgery went well.

They said it's all up to him now.

Right.

- I have to convince him somehow. - What?

How…

Oh, well…

Even if Yun-jae's unconscious, I'm sure he can still hear everything.

- So… - What?

Would it be possible for me to visit his place?

He mentioned he had a health checkup done with that previous company,

and those results might help.

He said he lived in a shared house.

I've never been. I only know the address.

A shared house?

Yes.

He said it's a house shared by people his age.

Must be his nephew. He has photos all over the place.

That's so cute.

His sister told me Yun-jae's crazy about his nephew.

Really?

Let's look around for those medical records and anything else that might help.

Okay.

- I'll check the drawers. - Okay.

Wow, this is amazing.

Look, Gyeon-u.

Yun-jae must've studied English really hard.

He got good grades.

- A high GPA too. - I know.

I wonder where his medical records are.

They'd be here, right?

Where would those medical records be?

Big brother, I found it.

His health checkup results.

PRE-EMPLOYMENT MEDICAL CHECKUP NAME, HEO YUN-JAE, COMPANY, FORCEL

It's all normal.

ALL TEST RESULTS ARE NORMAL

THE INDIVIDUAL IS DEEMED TO BE FIT

Looks good.

Well done.

Will his workplace injury claim go through okay?

It needs approval from the head office, so it might take a while.

Right?

We're fighting a global company, so it won't be easy,

but who is this?

Managing labor attorney of this practice

and savior of the living, the dead, and even out-of…

My God, you're distracting. Go over there.

Gyeon-u! Stop messing around and come here.

Hui-joo?

I'm so drained.

Wait, this comment.

- Why? Is it another nasty one? - No, nothing like that.

What is it?

"Hello, I run a gas station, and I used to employ the young man who collapsed."

"I called him recently about something,

and I was saddened to hear that he had collapsed."

"The person I know is not at all weak like the comments here suggest."

"He was more diligent and exemplary than anyone else I know."

"Gyeonjjang TV, I'll gladly speak on his character if that would help."

What should we do, Mu-jin? Leave our details?

Yes.

"Hello."

"We are labor attorney No Mu-jin's…"

WORKERS' COMPENSATIONS & WELFARE

- Yes, Hui-joo. - Did you file the workers' comp claim?

Yeah, just now. Why? Did something happen?

They finally replied to Gyeon-u's email.

- Really? - Big brother.

I found the CEO's social media account and sent a direct message.

I added English subtitles to the video and said it got 500,000 views in Korea

and if they stay quiet, I'll spread it, then got a quick reply.

It said, "Calm down, please."

Wow, that's impressive, Gyeon-u.

Since it's looking serious, they agreed to provide the CCTV footage

and promised to cover medical bills and offer full support,

so we'll have to wait and see.

Things work out when people care and take action.

This is great. Really great.

- I'm stopping by the hospital. - Okay.

Sweet!

The U.S. head office said they'd take responsibility.

The workers' comp will be approved without a problem too.

So you don't need to worry.

That will take care of the hospital and surgery bills.

That's such a relief.

- Thank you so much. - Mom!

Oh my, Yu-chan. What are you doing here?

- Have you eaten? - Hi, honey.

Nice to meet you.

How've you been, Yu-chan?

Mom, Uncle's not going to die, is he?

Of course not.

Then why won't he wake up?

He's been too tired, so he's catching up on all his sleep.

Then, when he wakes up, can he take me to see a baseball game

and to an amusement park too?

Yes.

Why don't you pray for Uncle to wake up soon?

I prayed.

Well done, Yu-chan. Say goodbye to Uncle.

Uncle, this is my favorite toy,

but you must be bored, so you can play with it.

You need to wake up soon and give it back to me.

Okay?

Hey.

Where the hell have you been? Where were you?

Just places.

I've been making a few visits here and there.

Visits for what?

I wanted to be a cool uncle to Yu-chan.

Hey, you…

Were you saying goodbye to people?

Unbelievable. If only I could knock some sense into you.

Don't you care about the people you leave behind?

You told Yu-chan you'd go to an amusement park and a baseball game.

It's his birthday soon, and do you know what he wants for his birthday?

I know.

You know?

He wants you to wake up and play with him.

You know, and you're still doing this?

Your sister too.

She's been here day and night trying to save you.

Doing this when you can live is as good as suicide.

Yun-jae, the workers' comp claim will be approved soon,

and once you wake up and get treated, you'll make a full recovery.

- Then… - Then what?

Will anything change about my life?

Whether things change or not, you won't know unless you live.

I really want to hit you right now.

Follow me.

Where did you get this car?

It's mine.

This is how labor attorneys roll.

It's a rental.

I went all out today.

Where are we going?

You'll see when we get there.

Why are you going this far?

We're not even that close.

We're just strangers.

I know.

At first, I didn't know why I was going this far either.

But you remind me of someone.

He must've struggled just as much.

He must've been really lonely.

Never mind.

Anyway, this is what a labor attorney does.

When people are backed into a corner, they can't think clearly.

You know why?

They don't have the mental capacity.

You feel like everything's your fault,

and you think you'll live like this forever.

And after a while, you think it'd be better to die,

but that's all in your head.

When you think you might die, if you just let life run its course,

somehow, you end up finding a way.

How would you know that?

I learned that the expensive way.

Right now, just like this tunnel,

life may seem endlessly stifling and bleak, but…

Hey, they say a tunnel is the fastest shortcut to your next stop, right?

If you don't pass through this long, dark tunnel,

you'll have to take the long route around the mountain.

And there's one thing that's certain.

This tunnel may seem endless now, but there is definitely an end.

That's kind of stating the obvious, isn't it?

I thought you'd be touched, but I guess it didn't work.

Let's just listen to some music.

"RACE" GYEONJJANG TV X BEAUTY JOO

Who's singing this? I don't recognize the voice.

My sister-in-law and Gyeon-u, a friend she always hangs out with.

You've seen her before.

So they sing? Are they singers?

No, not singers.

But they do song covers and all kinds of social media challenges.

The other day, they were filming a mukbang and got food poisoning.

They're trying out all kinds of stuff.

Then again, when you're young, you try things, make mistakes, and so on.

They're pretty good.

They are.

See? What did I tell you?

A tunnel is just something you pass through.

You don't know what's on the other side until you come out.

Stating the obvious again.

Here we go.

That's amazing.

Wow, it's so blue, right?

I've never seen anything like this.

Look at the color of the ocean.

Wow, so cool.

You like it?

"Gyeonjjang TV, I'll gladly speak on his character if that would help."

You're the one who wrote this, right?

Yes, I wrote that.

After reading all those comments, how could I not say something?

You said Yun-jae worked here. What was he like?

Yes, Yun-jae worked part-time at my gas station.

We have a car wash here too, so it's hard work, you know?

He can be a little snappy at times, but that's part of his charm.

He was so hardworking and reliable.

But about how I found out he had collapsed…

One of my managers said he was quitting, so I wanted to cast Yun-jae…

Sorry, one second.

I think you meant "scout" him.

Oh, yes, right. Scout him.

I wanted to scout him, so I called him.

But then I heard he had collapsed, and my heart just dropped.

But right then, it was Gyeonjjang TV.

I always watch it.

And funnily enough, the video was about Yun-jae.

It's sad enough that he collapsed,

but people who don't even know him were saying all kinds of stuff about him.

I felt so frustrated, so I…

Sorry, one second.

Hui-joo, look.

- Sir, please look at this. - What?

"He did dishes at our restaurant on weekends."

"He was a quiet hard worker."

"He was kind to the customers and his coworkers."

- Yes, exactly! This is all true! - There are so many like that!

"He must've collapsed after working without slacking off."

"He was a diligent and sincere person." "I'm sorry to hear this."

Exactly. There's more being posted.

- This is great! - The real comments are coming in.

It's the ocean!

- Come here. - No.

- No, I can't. - Get over here.

I don't like the water. Don't!

It's nice to be at the beach after so long.

The air is fresh, and it's like my head's clearing.

Man, if we've come this far, we should really be getting some raw fish.

Do you like raw fish?

No.

Oh, really?

Remember, fried chicken at the Han River? I always keep my promises.

Yun-jae, hurry up and wake up so we can go get fried chicken and beer.

Mu-jin.

You know you're really persistent.

I know.

I always follow through.

So you should brace yourself.

Until you change your mind, I'm going to hang on and never let go.

Honestly…

What? You look good when you smile!

I look good without a smile too.

That's exactly it.

That confidence.

You can do anything with that kind of confidence.

Since we're on the topic, why don't you become a labor attorney?

- A labor attorney? - Yeah.

I was also at rock bottom and wondering what to do,

but getting my license helped me get back on my feet.

I heard you couldn't even afford your office rent.

That was at the start, before we figured things out.

Listen to me.

There's a lot of demand for labor attorneys now.

It has good prospects, and it's a licensed profession.

I saw your GPA and TOEIC score.

You've got a knack for studying, and above all else, we're hardworking.

Just study like crazy and pass, okay?

I'm going to build a labor law firm.

I'll hire you.

A labor law firm?

When I was working at the convenience store,

I didn't see any clients go into your office.

If not that, let's think of other options.

The world's full of opportunities!

Again with stating the obvious, seriously.

The obvious stuff is what sticks with you, okay?

Got it?

Yeah, geez.

Still, this is great, isn't it?

- Yeah. - Look.

Excuse me,

this is about your brother, right?

Please have a look.

What is this?

Comments by people wishing your brother a full recovery.

Yun-jae.

Look.

People are cheering you on.

They're telling you to wake up.

There's more below. If you look here…

Recently on social media,

touching stories about a man in his twenties have gone viral.

- Wow. - This young man…

Yeo-jin's amazing. Pretty too. She's like a celebrity.

Is it because she's on-screen?

She keeps getting prettier.

- Gyeon-u. - Yeah?

Give me your hand.

- What was that? - Tact.

You should have some in front of the person you say you like.

I won't lose it, my amazing and pretty Hui-joo.

Hey! At least come up with something different.

You used those exact compliments on that reporter!

- What are you doing? - Packing some wit.

That was good.

Oh my God, what? We got a sudden spike in views!

VOXX's Son Seung-hyo shared our video!

What? VOXX's Son Seung-hyo?

He has ten million followers! He's super good-looking!

I really like him! This is crazy!

We're on fire, Hui-joo!

Gyeon-u, let's get one thing straight. You know I made this happen, right?

I called and visited where Yun-jae worked and explained what happened

and sent them the link to the video.

Yeah, they did write it voluntarily, but you were key.

Actually, you really worked hard on this one.

Well done, Ko Gyeon-u!

Really? Did I do well?

Yes.

Tact.

No, Hui-joo, you did better.

- I did, didn't I? - Yeah.

But this is amazing.

- Mu-jin! - Big brother.

Where's Yun-jae?

Uncle opened his eyes.

Uncle.

Yun-jae!

- Uncle. - Goodness, Yun-jae!

Do you recognize me?

Yes! And Yu-chan too!

I'll carry them.

ONE MONTH LATER

Hurry up.

Ko Gyeon-u.

Yeah?

Let's end this.

What?

You're scaring me.

This ambiguous thing we have going on,

let's end it.

It's day 1 for us as a couple.

Really?

You mean it?

My rule for dating a guy is that he needs to impress me five times.

You cleared that mission today.

When did I clear those missions?

When you threw off that white gown and fled.

When I fled.

When you were pushing carts.

Pushing carts.

When your English pronunciation was good.

Good pronunciation.

When you sneaked coins into the piggy bank.

They're all minor things.

And the last one?

I just couldn't remember that last one, so I thought it wasn't meant to be, but…

But?

When you spoke sincerely to Min-uk's mom,

I was really touched.

Na Hui-joo!

You're not just super charming. You're a total flirt.

Hey, stop that!

No, I'm going to keep doing this.

To make up for lost time.

Fine.

Too tight. I can't breathe!

Are you that happy?

Of course I am!

I don't think so.

- You said fried chicken and beer. - You just got out of the hospital.

Who do you think I am?

I prepared an ice-cold soda for Yun-jae.

The same for me

since I have to drive later and it's nice if we're matching.

Is this really just soda? It's nonalcoholic, right?

You're too suspicious for your own good.

You don't have what matters and have too much of what doesn't.

What don't I have?

You definitely don't have any awareness.

And not even a shred of luck.

And not a speck of flexibility.

Oh, really?

Well, since I bought this fried chicken,

if people who are so aware and flexible don't eat any, I'd be really lucky.

What are you doing? You sure have pettiness.

That was really petty.

- Really petty. Not cool. - Not cool, Mu-jin.

I was just joking. Come on.

- Have some. - Okay.

That hits the spot.

I thought that summer would never end, but it's nice and cool now.

Big brother, we need to toast.

- Honestly. - No awareness.

- Congrats on your discharge! - Congrats!

- Congrats! - Thank you!

Hui-joo.

Here?

Now, now.

What do you think you're doing?

Big brother.

We're officially a couple from today.

Yeah, that's what happened.

- Wow, congratulations. - Thank you.

Wow, so cool!

Why take that difficult path?

God, I can't watch this.

I'm not witnessing that.

He's acting like he's never dated before.

- Mu-jin. - Yeah?

Anyway, how much will I get?

For what?

You told me to become a labor attorney so we can work together.

If you pay me a lot, I'll give it some serious thought.

I won't be able to work until I recover anyway,

so I might as well study.

Might as well?

Hey, the labor attorney exam is no joke.

Only someone like me could pass in just a year.

If you're serious, do it properly.

We'll talk once you pass.

Watching you, I thought

a labor attorney is a pretty good job.

So I want to give it a go.

Good thinking.

What're you doing? We're eating all the drumsticks.

I should eat some too since I bought it.

By the way, Yun-jae, did you subscribe?

I've been so out of it, I haven't had the chance.

You should've done it right away.

- Like, subscribe. - Like.

- Turn on notifications. - Please.

Gyeonjjang TV played a big part.

Anyway, I don't think I've thanked you yet.

Thank you.

I've always wanted to ride a tandem bicycle with my girlfriend.

Hey, pedal properly! I'm getting tired!

I was going to.

- We're moving. - Not really.

- Hey! - What the heck?

Last one to the convenience store is buying dinner tonight!

Don't take it back. You're dead!

- Okay, let's go! - Okay!

Faster! Oh, gosh.

Careful.

- Pedal faster. We can do it. - Okay, let's go!

What are you doing here?

Hey!

- Hey, the guy in a blue jacket! - What?

Catch him!

- Catch him? - Hey, catch him!

- Why? - Who?

I'll buy snacks!

Hey!

Catch that guy in a blue jacket!

Fire! Help!

I'll help you.

- Yes, you can come in. - Is it a ghost?

You can sit here.

Looks like it's more than one.

Bukuk is owned by someone else.

- Who? - Myeongum Construction.

So, bring him back. Got it?

I saw your video.

He wants to meet and explain.

I'll go by myself. I want to be alone.

You must use that to expose the truth.

You're going to join hands with the man who killed us.

Please calm down. We're on the same team!

We're sorry!

Why are you following me?
