"EPISODE 5"

It's called Remington's disease.

Remington's?

There's a 50% chance of inheriting it.

Your body slowly stiffens over time,
and your memory starts to fade.

In some cases, total memory loss.

Remington's.

Is that what you've been trying to hide?

Remington's.

Is that what you've been trying to hide?

She was amazing.

- She certainly was.
- Hey, look.

Seeum!

Well, you must be exhausted.

Are you feeling better?

- I'm fine.
- Honey, you were great.

That was an incredible performance.

Shouldn't we have a party or something?

Maybe some champagne?

Let's do it next time.

- Let's talk soon, Dad.
- Hey, what's going on?

- Seeum.
- Soon.

Oh. Wait, Seeum…

At least take the flowers with you.

What's the rush?

Something must be wrong.

How did you find out?

Tell me.

You're not even going to lie?

What is it you want?

I heard getting tested will tell you
whether or not you'll get it.

Bring me the test results.

You don't want to get tested, do you?

That's why you tried so hard
to get out of the ER when you woke up.

You refused to take a blood test.

You're avoiding it.

- It's not your problem.
- Take the test.

You have a 50% chance of inheriting it.
That's a pretty high risk.

You must know from your research.

As your memory fades,
you start seeing things.

You can't control your own body.

There's no prevention or cure.

Would knowing in advance
make a difference?

And if I knew?
How would I spend the rest of my life?

- But still--
- I'd rather not know.

Hope is the only thing keeping me going.

So keep this to yourself.

WOO YEONGSEON

Are you Bae Junghwa's doctor?

Yes, I am. Can I help you?

How do you plan to deal with this?

A patient's information was leaked.

Excuse me?

What are you--

The only way someone could find out
I could have Remington's

is through this hospital.

Because I've never once mentioned
that disease!

And obviously, I've never been tested!

Okay, first,

I need you to calm down.
I'll find out what happened--

Don't you think it's too late for that?

You'd better watch your step.

If this happens one more time,

I'll make sure
you never wear that white coat again.

Seeu…

All right.

Next time,

I'll make sure to bring Seeum with me.

Seeu…

Honey.

Oh! Hey, you're both here!

- Congratulations, you did a great job.
- You brought me flowers?

Thank you.

- You were wonderful.
- Thanks.

Way to go, Mom.

Mom.

Mom!

Mom...

What's wrong?
There's no one there.

- Mom.
- You're a monster.

- A monster.
- What?

Die.

Die!

Die.

Die!

You're a monster!

Die!

Die.

Please die.

A celebratory drink?

You're the new art director

of the Yeonsung
International Music Festival.

And your new piece is a big hit.

Let's go out for drinks.

It's not confirmed yet.

Getting a call from the chairman himself
means you got it.

Man, you're on a roll.

But…

will you be working for the festival
alongside Seeum?

I'm not sure yet.

Anyway, let's set a date soon.

All right, sounds good!

See you.

TO CHA SEEUM AND KIM PHIL,
CONGRATS ON YOUR FIRST CONCERT IN KOREA

Yes?

Hello.

It looks like someone tampered

with the brakes on Ms. Lee Ajin's car.

So,

someone intentionally did that to Ajin…

Can you tell us where you were
on the day of the incident?

WARD

Were you trying to kill her? Were you?

I didn't mean to cause an accident.

You think I believe that?

I can't believe you.

You shouldn't skip meals.

I didn't expect to see you again.

I heard what actually happened that day.

And?

I'm sorry.

In spite of everything,
you want to be the good guy.

Seeum…

is the perpetrator.

- What?
- Who else could it be?

Who else would want
to harm me and my baby?

No.

It can't be her.

Are you sure?

She'd never do something like that.

You trust her completely?

No matter what?

I'm having this baby, and I'll make sure

nothing happens to him.

And you don't deserve

to be a father.

- Ajin.
- Just leave.

Seeum.

This is for you.

I was asked to deliver this to you.

- Who is it from?
- There's a note inside.

Thank you.

YOO JEONGJAE

I'm at the first-floor restaurant.

Choose from the menu and join me.

I'd rather not know.

Hope is the only thing keeping me going.

So…

keep this to yourself.

I'm touched.

You really came to see me.

What would you like to order?

Don't joke around.

Come on, let's eat.

Jeongjae.

This isn't a joke, it's a threat.

Isn't what I found out significant enough

to call you down for breakfast?

Mm.

Try the porridge, it's delicious.

Mm.

You're not in the mood for Korean.
Should we go for Western?

Oh, that's right.

Do you still not eat breakfast?

- That's enough.
- How about coffee?

Okay, fine.
Can you just watch me eat, then?

Fine. Let's go together.

You're heading to work anyway.
Get in, I'll take you.

Jeongjae…

Don't be shy, Seeum.

See, hmm?

Isn't it nice
to sit face-to-face like this?

We can chat on the way.

Mr. Park, can we go now?

Hold on.

Don't forget

to buckle your seat belt.

Now we're ready.

Or not. It's my turn to buckle up.

Have a great day.

This isn't a joke,
it's a threat.

Isn't what I found out significant enough

to call you down for breakfast?

A list of neurologists and neurosurgeons
from the country's top five hospitals.

Nice work.

Look overseas as well
and find the most qualified doctor.

- Doesn't matter where they're from.
- Yes, sir.

PROFESSOR OF NEUROLOGY
PARK MUNGI

Good morning.

Morning.

Uh, despite having little rehearsal time,
we premiered an original piece.

And I want to thank you
for putting on a great performance.

Great work, everyone.

Thank you.

Hey, Ajin.

How do you feel
now that you've been discharged?

I'm fine.

Ajin.

Please be on time.

Sure, no problem.

- Taeho.
- Yes.

Let's review
our last performance, shall we?

She won't let us off easy.

DIVORCE APPLICATION

Ajin.

Have you lost some weight?

I haven't had an appetite lately.

I'm better now.

I was wondering…

about that rumor.

We all want to know.

Are you wondering if Professor Kim
and I are having an affair?

Not really.

We didn't really believe any of it.

Well…

Is it true?

You won't believe me no matter what I say.

I don't see why we shouldn't.

I think your joke's gone too far.

If you'll excuse me,
I have some work to do.

Wait…

So, is she or isn't she?

It's hard to tell.

How can I help you?

I'm having this baby.

And I'm staying in Hanphil.

It'd be a pleasure…

for me to share

my child's life with you.

So, I guess he didn't want
to leave with you.

However, I'm not interested
in such things.

So don't bother explaining all that.

If you're done, could you please leave?

Are you sure you're not interested?

Soon, it will be clear
you lied on the news.

It will all be exposed.

Are you worried about me?

The moment my lie is exposed,
you'll become an adulteress.

You should worry about yourself.

Come on, it's over now.

The boss said

to close the case

because there's no evidence
and both parties have settled.

- Who are we to--
- But that settlement seems fishy.

She settled when her husband's mistress
caused the accident?

Well, maybe
Cha Seeum is a good and decent person.

"Good and decent"?

That would be news to me.

- Here.
- Man, come on.

Besides,

I'm sure there's a perpetrator.
It wasn't just some freak accident.

My sweet baby.

My goodness.

You look so haggard.

Oh, honey.

Mom.

Bongju.

Leave now.

You have to lie low
until your dad's election is over.

After that, I'll find a way
to send you abroad, okay?

My poor baby.

Remington's disease
doesn't have a cure yet.

The best we can do is prescribe medication
to delay the symptoms.

She goes into work early and stays late.

Immediately after a concert,
she starts thinking about the next one.

And she usually eats quick meals
in her office.

Hmm.

Is that all?

You don't need to tell me
what I already know.

That's it.

That's all I know.

You're pretty useless for a spy.

Oh, that's right. I'm a spy.

I thought I was just another success story

who used my cousin to get ahead.

What the…

It was obviously a mistake to hire you,
so why am I still paying you?

You know what?

Never mind.

What?

I just want to pretend I don't know.

After punching Seeum's husband
at the hospital,

you ran a background check on her,
and now you commute together.

It's all so strange.

But I'm just going to play dumb.

Besides,

what would people think

about you doing this at her workplace?

I can't afford to worry about
such trivial matters.

You got it?

It's way too early
in the morning for this.

Why aren't you signing off on it?

I sent my project proposal ages ago.

You did?

Don't you come to work to hang out?

Just sign off on it.

Jeez... What are you up to?

"Documentary on the lives
of Cha Seeum and Kim Phil,

the married musical geniuses"?

What is this?

Sounds good, right?

If Jeongjae knew, he'd freak out.

That's why I'm doing it.

You said she was Jeongjae's first love.

You're already working on it?

The Symphony No. 1 violin solo.

Yes, it's a bit challenging.

It can't be easy.

It took Brahms more than 20 years
to compose this piece.

The fair thing about effort
is that it always shows.

Hard work pays off in the end, right?

It's important to capture
the lyrical mood in this movement.

Shall we begin?

Stay calm, you don't want to get
too overexcited when playing a solo.

Imagine that you're having a conversation
with a woodwind instrument.

Let's try again.

Seeum.

Mr. Jeon wants to see you.

I sense a big hit.

Thank you.

This is great. What do you think?

- It looks good.
- Doesn't it?

Yes, come in.

Hey, Seeum, come on in.

Hello.

I'm Go Yura, director of KVN.

KVN
GO YURA

I see. I'm Cha Seeum.

Your last concert was a huge success.

That's why I've rushed here
to get you on board.

Despite my appearance,
I'm quick on my feet.

I'm planning a documentary about you two.

The genius conductor
and the genius composer.

The life of a musician couple.

Doesn't it sound exciting?

You don't have to overthink this.

Just show us how your daily life is--

I appreciate your interest,

but I can't do a documentary
about my life.

Unless it's a documentary about Hanphil.

I'm sure Hanphil

will naturally play a part in our story.

I think it'd be great
if we could do this together.

We've been getting a lot of requests
for joint interviews

- and TV appearances--
- No.

We're not doing any future interviews
or TV appearances together.

- Honey.
- If you'll excuse me,

I'm busy right now.

Considering
I'm the director of KVN,

don't you think it'll cause problems

if you flat out refuse me like this?

The abrupt presentation of your proposal
without any prior arrangement

gave me the impression
that you're quite impatient.

I guess I was wrong.

If you want an indirect rejection,

my assistant will relay the message.

- I'll be going now.
- Wait, Seeum, just…

Wait…

Ms. Go, Seeum's speech
may be a bit abrasive,

but that's not who she is.

You don't need to explain.

I've heard enough.

She might change her mind
if I talk to her.

Is that possible?

It's a great opportunity,
for both Hanphil and us.

This should be good enough.

This is great.

What brings you here?

I'm working.

- What's with the sandwiches?
- You don't need to know.

How sweet.

- You brought her a sandwich.
- Why are you here?

I'm going to produce an amazing show.

A documentary that shows a glimpse into
the daily lives of Cha Seeum and Kim Phil.

- You're doing what?
- Looking forward to it?

- Leave her alone.
- I don't have to listen to you.

It was a decision made
by Cha Seeum and her husband.

Why would you stop them?

Did Seeum say she'd do it?

I just met with them, and they agreed.

Honey,

don't forget.

Seeum is a married woman.

Bringing her a sandwich
doesn't change that.

In fact, if you keep this up,
people will think you're an adulterer.

Would that make her an adulteress, then?

DAD

Hi, Dad.

HANYANG HWARO
SPECIALIZING IN GRILLED BEEF

Seeum, over here.

No, don't worry about me.

Give it to Seeum.

Yes, of course.

Mm.

- It's delicious.
- I agree.

The food's better because we're all here.

Why aren't you eating?

Hmm? Do you not feel well?

Oh, no, I'm fine. I'll eat.

It's good.

- Dig in, Dad.
- Sure.

They do takeout.

No, I ate way too much today.

You two should take it.

I got some for us too. Hope you enjoy.

Thanks.

I'll definitely enjoy it.

Go on now.

We'll wait until you get inside.

My house is right there.
I'll watch you leave.

- Okay, we're going to go.
- Go ahead.

- Good night, Dad.
- You too.

- We'll see you soon.
- All right.

Bye.

Stop the car.

- Honey.
- I told you to stop.

- Seeum!
- Let go.

- Have you lost your mind?
- It's unfair, I know.

But I was willing to do it
if it meant I could hold on to you.

Just file the divorce papers.

No.

I don't want a divorce.

I'm sure you'll change your mind.

You see,

I know…

...about the Remington's.

I've known since last year.

The fish might be shy.

Maybe.

There's not a single fish biting today.

CHUNG EUN SENIOR CARE CENTER

Hello?

Is everything okay with Junghwa?

Yes.

She sometimes throws fits
looking for Seeum.

She was a little worse today.

I never wanted you to see her like this.

If Seeum finds out…

I won't say anything.

I don't want to worry her either.

Thanks.

I have no intention of separating.

I didn't want to when I found out,
and I don't now.

I understand why you couldn't tell me.

And I totally get
why you didn't want kids.

So this time,

I'm asking you to understand me.

You…

want…

to keep conducting, don't you?

All this time, I kept your secret…

because I'm your husband.

Is this a new piece?

I hope you'll premiere

all my future pieces.

For the rest of our lives.

Let's get married.

You want…

to keep conducting, don't you?

All this time, I kept your secret…

...because I'm your husband.

RMRFK305

has completed
phase 1 clinical trials this year,

and we're now
conducting research with Soohan Hospital.

Besides treating obesity...

...it stabilizes the nerves
and reduces stress...

But,

if you keep doing this kind of thing
at her workplace,

you could put her in a predicament.

Would that make her an adulteress, then?

The product is formulated
to ensure clean charging.

This concludes my presentation.

Feel free to ask any questions.

It's over, Mr. Yoo.

What?

What brings you here?

How did you know he was having an affair?

What?

You have evidence, right?

HANSUK UNIVERSITY OF THE ARTS

Let's wrap this up with your resignation.

- Sir--
- Don't make a fuss.

If things get out of hand,
our school could suffer.

Shame on you.

Hello?

Did you get the pictures?

Was it you?

It all started with you.

Your threat hinges on a possibility.

I don't have the disease yet.

- Seeum.
- We're getting divorced.

If we can't reach an agreement,
we'll go to court.

You have nothing to gain from this.

Is this really necessary?

You shouldn't have crossed the line

if you really wanted my forgiveness.

Those pictures…

were only sent to the president's office.
Next time, it'll be a TV station.

Stop, or you'll lose everything.

Today is our first look
at Symphony No. 1 by Brahms.

It took Brahms many years
to complete this symphony.

It was only released
after a lot of thought was given to it.

Consequently, it is rich,

intricate and structurally dense.

For the concert, I would like to add

more dramatic elements
to this already dramatic piece.

Let's begin.

Yoseop!

The steps of a giant!

Good. Tempo!

With more intensity!

You have a 50% chance of inheriting it.

That's a pretty high risk.

As your memory fades,
you start seeing things.

You're a monster!

You can't control your own body.

Seeum.

Seeum, are you okay?

It doesn't look
like there's a fire.

Why did it go off, then?

There's been so much chaos,
and now this!

Just look at all this water!
It's as if a water cannon went off!

- Are you okay?
- I can't believe this.

- Inhan.
- Yes?

- Please call the instrument technician.
- Okay.

Check your instruments,

and give the damaged ones
to the technician first.

- Seeum, are you okay?
- Of course.

Luna, hurry and check
on the string instruments.

- Okay.
- What-- What happened here?

Mr. Jeon, please turn off the sprinklers.

Yes, of course.

Please get them some dry towels.

Okay.

Mr. Park, are you okay?

I'm fine.
It's the instruments I'm worried about.

Yoseop, is the timpani okay?

I'm not sure. It looks pretty bad though.

Seeum?

Seeum?

Seeum.

MAESTRA: STRINGS OF TRUTH

You saw for yourself.

I'm not merely
making empty verbal threats.

She doesn't have much time left.

It's coming for you.

Tell me what you want to do
to that bastard.

From now on, I plan to stand in the way

of everything this man does.

Seeum, I can't leave you.

She might be hiding it from us.

I will voluntarily step down.

She didn't look
like she was all there.

You must have a death wish.

Now, get out of here

and out of my life.
