What?

She says she wants to die.

Do what you can to kill her.

Excuse me.

Here's your friend's coat.

- Her phone's ringing. - Okay.

Thank you.

SPAM

No.

Your client isn't well.

Would you be happy if a telemarketer

called at this hour of the night?

It's been five hours since Jun-young left.

Aren't you worried?

Well...

No, not at all.

He went to see his father.

Wouldn't it be strange to worry?

What if he were to collapse

or something were to happen to him?

I hope something like that never happens,

but if he were to collapse,

someone would help him

and call for help.

He's Sin Jun-young, and the whole of Korea

loves and cares for him.

I'm

really good at waiting.

Whether it's 100 times or 1,000 times,

waiting isn't a problem for me.

What I fear the most is the fact

that I might not have to wait one day.

I might wake up one morning,

and Jun-young

might no longer be part of this world.

It's acute enteritis.

The doctor's too busy today,

so he said he'll kill you next time.

Are you No Eul's guardian?

She doesn't have to be hospitalized,

so you can check out.

Get on.

Let me live!

I don't want to die, so let me live!

Who will care

for my mom after I die?

For my whole life,

I was never a decent son!

All I did was break her heart!

There's...

There's so much I want to do for her.

I can't die like this.

I want to live.

I don't want to die. I want to live.

The people I love

are all here.

We were just

about to become happy.

Why do I have to die now?

I don't want to die.

I want to live.

Let me live, please.

I'm scared.

I'm scared.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

Early this morning, a video surfaced on the Internet,

and it turned Korea upside-down.

It mentions how a politician and a prosecutor

covered up a hit-and-run that resulted in death.

You hit a man who was pulling a cart across the road.

Then you fled.

I don't know what evidence you have,

but you can't get me.

Do you think what happened then won't happen again?

The story is shocking, but what caught our attention

were those who appeared and were mentioned in the clip.

Daehan Jeil Party's Yoon Seong-ho, his daughter Ms. Yoon,

the top star Sin Jun-young, and the congressman Choi Hyeon-jun

were seen or mentioned.

Viewers are signing a petition to reopen the case,

and around 57,000 people have signed it so far.

Mr. Choi has stated

that he will come in voluntarily to explain the matter.

Excuse me. Mr. Choi just arrived at the police station.

We'll connect to our reporter at the scene.

Mr. Jeon?

Mr. Choi.

Are you the senior prosecutor mentioned in the video?

Is everything in the video true?

Is Sin Jun-young your illegitimate son?

Any comments, sir?

I apologize for causing trouble.

I will answer every question sincerely during the investigation.

CONGRESSMAN CHOI IS BEING INVESTIGATED

Mr. Choi

went straight inside to be questioned by the police.

If he admits the charges,

he will lose his seat as a congressman

and be sentenced for his crimes committed while he was a prosecutor.

My gosh. Is Jun-young really Mr. Choi's son?

Then was Ms. Sin his mistress?

Where's Yeong-ok?

Mr. Choi's aide did an interview.

He said

Mr. Choi himself told him to upload the video.

The man you never forgot or got over

had a shred of decency after all.

I was asked to cover up the hit-and-run,

so I threatened the prosecutor who was handling the case.

I told him to fabricate the evidence and witness

and cover up the case.

But

he refused, so I demoted him to a regional office.

In return

for covering up the case,

Mr. Yoon

nominated me as the candidate for the by-election.

My plane leaves in an hour. Clear it up for me, Dad.

I only did as you said!

You said you'd deal with it.

I went to America because you told me to

and laid low because you told me to.

You told me to forget all about it, so I did.

What did I do wrong?

Ms. Yoon Jeong-eun?

We're the police.

Stop crying, Jik.

Eul.

Do you think Dad can rest in peace now?

He won't feel wronged anymore, will he?

Why did you give it to him?

What?

Why did you give the video to Choi Hyeon-jun?

I didn't give it to him.

I guess he stole it.

You weren't going to air it, were you?

I was going to.

- I was going to give the video to-- - Eul.

Fine. I gave it to him.

I don't need it anymore.

We found who killed my dad. That's enough.

If you let it go like that,

those people will get away with it

and think it's okay.

They'll do similar things again to other people.

He didn't, though.

He could have pretended like it never happened,

but he came clean

and is paying the price for it.

This is the world I want to believe in.

This is the world I believe in.

Home delivery.

Hello.

Right.

You can put it here.

- Bye, then. - Thank you.

Bye.

What's that?

Pororo's house.

Let's bring him over.

I want to get to know him.

You're allergic to dogs.

Not so much now. I've been taking medicine.

If I feel sick, I'll take some more.

I'll look after Pororo from now.

Don't you trust me more than Mr. Jang?

PORORO

PORORO'S HOME

Hey.

Hey.

- What? - Hey.

Look.

That night, Eul woke me up

and told me about how she planned

to live without me.

Justice, honesty,

beliefs, morals,

or conscience were still too serious words

for someone like her.

She only talked about common sense.

She said that's how she would live.

She wanted to live

decently enough

so she wouldn't embarrass her brother, father or me.

When Eul fell asleep around daybreak,

Choi Hyeon-jun,

I mean, my father sent me a text.

He said

he would take pride

and joy in the fact

that he was my father until the day he dies.

Forget it. Take it away.

He doesn't deserve a sip of water.

Do you think I paid you a fortune

to get a result like this?

Your husband was the one

who denied to have me represent him.

What does that mean?

I told him he doesn't need to represent me anymore.

He did nothing wrong.

It was my idea.

You may leave now.

Okay.

From now on,

I will continue without a lawyer.

I will not appeal.

- Why not? - There's no reason.

- I want to. - Honey.

Ji-tae's right.

You and I both

have become monsters

that even we cannot control.

Let's stop this.

Please.

Let's not go any further.

I made you into what you are now.

You were crawling in the gutter,

but I brought you to the place you're in now.

Honey.

Why? Do you want to go back to where you came from?

Mom!

You were poor and powerless.

That's why your mother died.

She needed a heart,

but you couldn't even do anything

when people stronger and richer than you cut in line.

Do you want to go back to those days?

- Eun-su. - What did you say to me then?

You said

you wanted power so you wouldn't have to lose anything to anyone.

Do you think you can

gain power by sitting and doing nothing?

Do you think you'll get it with luck

if you live by your conscience?

To get what you want,

you must endure the pain and sacrifice

and pay the price in full.

To protect you, I even

hit my own son with a car.

Get out of this house.

Go back to the gutter.

That's where you came from.

You don't

have to keep your promise.

You said you wouldn't leave her.

But you don't have to keep that promise.

I will suffer with her for the rest of my life.

- You can-- - She is my wife.

She's also the mother of my children.

Ji-tae.

I will

stay with your mother.

Even if that's

worse than living in the gutter.

Did he not come to work today?

Where is he?

There's a pimple on your forehead.

Did you have a rough few days?

You have one on your cheek.

Did you have a hard time?

Well?

Did you hate that kiss?

No.

It made my heart pound.

You lied about liking boys, didn't you?

You lied to get rid of me because of my father, right?

Give me your number.

My friends all remember their ex-boyfriend's numbers,

but I guess I'm stupid.

Didn't we break up?

We did.

I won't see you again.

I won't call

or text you.

- Then what's it for? - Later on,

if I never find a man as good as you,

I'll call you then.

NO JIK

Okay. Call me then.

I'll take your call.

Take care, Jik.

You, too.

Okay? Good.

But... No.

Gosh.

What is she saying?

Are you even speaking English?

Something went wrong with the delivery,

so the item was returned.

They re-sent it two days ago

and sent you an email. Didn't you get it?

Oh, they emailed me.

I don't open emails in English because they all seem like spam.

You're awesome.

Where's Jun-young?

Well...

He's...

Is he not in?

He is, but...

What is it?

- Is something wrong? - Hey.

I'm going to go for a walk.

Jun-young

didn't recognize me?

It started a week ago.

One day he calls me Eul,

the next day he asks who I am.

Now, he even forgot what his name is.

He got so confused and upset,

so I'm just acting like a live-in helper for now.

Are you following me?

Yes.

Do you know me?

Yes. Very well.

What was I like?

You said you know me very well.

- I do. - What was I like?

You're a jerk who thinks you're better than anyone.

You say hurtful things.

- Excuse me. - You hurt people.

You believe you're the only one who's right

and always want to look cool.

- Stop it. - You're rude and say horrible things,

but you're actually always right.

You don't have to, but you do crazy things

and make cowards like me

feel small and ashamed.

- You crush us. - Is that a compliment?

It is.

Were we friends?

We must've been close.

We weren't.

I really hated you a lot.

I even wished that you'd disappear.

So

next time,

let's meet again.

I'll be good to you then.

I'll be a real big brother.

I'll care for you

and love you.

Forget it.

You're weird.

- What's this? - I found it on the street.

Keep it.

I'm not a beggar.

Don't give me stuff you find on the street.

Fine. I bought it.

Keep it.

Why give me a ring?

- Give it to your girlfriend. - You're my girlfriend.

Yes.

I like you. Is that enough?

- You're crazy. - I'm not.

I've never been saner.

I'm in no mood to put up with your jokes, so get out.

Get out before I pour the dishwater on you.

You lunatic!

Have you lost your mind?

My son is dying.

How can you do this to the mother of a dying boy?

When you go see him,

make sure you wear that ring.

Wear it

and show it to him.

Brag about it.

Show him what?

You fool.

How could you?

How could you do this?

Jun-young

asked me to look after you.

Show him that ring

and say you'll be fine

without him.

Tell him that I said

I'll make you happy.

Put his mind at ease.

I know you avoid him

and can't bear to see him

because you feel guilty and sorry.

But you're

his mother.

You're his mom.

Why should you

feel sorry or guilty?

Go and see him

before it's too late.

I'll be released soon.

You will never get what you want.

Sorry about that.

I will get my revenge.

How dare you challenge me.

I will crush all of you.

My father said he'd go after you all,

especially your father.

If my father starts acting,

your father will never get back on his feet again.

Why are you so quiet?

Why don't you try to lecture me like always?

If I tell you that I fell for you once,

would you believe it?

"If this woman becomes my girlfriend,

life would be so fun and happy."

If I were to say I once thought that,

would you believe it?

You're going to teach me?

I'm really good at English.

I don't need a tutor to teach me English.

- I need-- - A moving yet unique essay

that will get you into an Ivy League university.

Excellent tips for making the interviewers gasp

and say they must pick you at all costs.

Is that what you need?

I didn't bribe my way to get here.

I passed your mother's rigorous interview.

People think I won't be smart because I'm so pretty.

But my grades are outstanding.

I play two instruments at a professional level,

and I'm good at sports.

Essays and speeches are my specialty--

What are you doing?

I'm trying to impress you.

I'll introduce myself again.

I'm pretty and have a variety of impressive skills,

and I've liked you for eight years.

That shows I'm also persistent, patient and loyal.

I'm Yoon Jeong-eun.

You're right.

You may have the power to get out.

But I want you to stay and pay for your sins.

I'll wait for you.

What do you mean?

Let's talk again then.

What do you mean?

Let's see if you've already gone too far to become better,

or if

there's at least a bit of hope for you.

If there's hope,

I'll be there for you.

I'll visit again.

Don't.

Don't ever come back.

Not until you die.

I don't ever want to see you again.

If you do, I'll kill you!

Who are you?

May I help you with anything?

Are you here to sell something?

Where is Eul?

Is she out?

She went to get groceries.

Are you here to see her?

You can wait inside.

Well, then.

When will

Eul be back?

I don't know.

She ruined the yukgaejang she was making,

so she went to get the ingredients for curry.

Could you taste it for me?

Sure.

Is it good?

It's awesome.

It's really good.

It tastes exactly like my mom's yukgaejang .

What's wrong? Does it taste bad?

Did you find a hair or something?

I'll get you a new bowl.

Mom.

Sorry for not recognizing you.

You look lovely today, Ms. Sin.

I had my hair done before coming here.

Guk-yeong even bought me a new outfit.

I see.

- Man-ok bought me these earrings. - I see.

This ring

is from Jeong-sik.

He proposed to me.

Really?

Congratulations, Mom.

Guk-yeong and Man-ok...

Now, I have two very sweet stepchildren.

I'm getting blessed at this old age.

I was a horrible son.

I feel terrible now.

No.

You were a great son.

I was not.

Children do all the good

they need to do before they turn three years old.

You always

slept well and ate well.

You even pooped well.

You didn't cry

or get sick.

Whenever you looked at me,

you smiled for some reason.

Goodness.

You just made me sound like I'm a great guy.

Okay.

Let's say I was a good son, then.

Mom.

I don't want you to think

that I didn't do my best.

Okay.

I lived hard.

Even if I got another chance, I won't be able to do it better.

But I still feel so sorry.

I'm sorry, Mom.

I'm really sorry.

My door will always be open.

Come visit whenever you miss me.

When the flowers bloom,

I'll think that you're there.

When the wind blows,

I'll think that you're there.

Even when it rains,

I'll think you came by.

When it snows,

I'll also think that you came by.

Thank you, Jun-young.

Thank you for being my son.

Me too.

It was

a great honor

to have you as my mom.

The tax investigation and audit revealed

that KJ Group has many issues.

As a member of upper management

and a family of the owner, I feel responsible.

Mrs. Lee Eun-su and I...

will resign from our positions. This will be effective immediately.

KJ Group will be managed by professional managers.

Mrs. Lee and I will serve only as major shareholders and owners,

and do our best to improve KJ Group in various fields such as research,

employee welfare...

I have bad news.

They're going to issue a warrant for your arrest soon.

- Have you eaten? - Sir.

I haven't had lunch yet.

Find a restaurant nearby.

Someplace with great yukgaejang .

You must think you're really pretty.

My brother said he misses me, and asked for my picture.

Did you see your mother off?

Yes.

Hey, what are you looking at?

There aren't any photos of us together.

Why didn't you ask a top star like me

for a photo?

Will you pose for one if I ask?

Gosh. I look amazing today.

I shine so brightly I can barely look at myself.

You're the only one who says I'm not pretty.

Why do I look so good?

It's a pity that you're the only one seeing me.

Hey, don't take photos like that without saying anything.

You look really tired.

I am.

I feel really tired today.

Sleep on my shoulder.

You're going to wake me up, aren't you?

I won't. Sleep.

You'll wake me and say you're bored.

I won't. Sleep well.

Are you asleep?

Yes.

How did you answer, then?

Are you really asleep?

Not yet.

Am I not pretty at all?

You're pretty.

You're so pretty that I can't look at you.

Are you asleep?

Are you really asleep?

Okay.

I won't talk.

I won't wake you up, either.

Fine.

You had a really long day today.

I won't wake you again.

Forget about your mom.

Forget about your dad.

Forget about me.

Don't think about anything.

Just sleep.

Thank you, Jun-young.

See you tomorrow.

Why aren't you taking out the boxes?

Are you going to keep slacking off?

Come and look at this.

The tree's growing new leaves.

What are you talking about?

Jun-young said it was dead and wanted to dig it up.

But look at it now.

- It's growing new leaves. - You're right.

This is incredible.

- Hello? - Guk-yeong.

Which do you prefer? Red or pink?

No.

What color do you like?

I like you, Na-ri.

Hey.

Right. I know we were supposed to watch a movie today,

but something came up and--

What's wrong?

We can't watch a movie then?

That's not what I meant.

Something came up, so after the movie,

I think we'll have to eat dinner together, too.

Gosh, you scared me.

- What are you doing? - Hello?

Hello? Guk-yeong?

Who is it? Who's the witch?

- Ouch. - How dare you say that.

You can't call my potential girlfriend a witch.

Hey.

I found something while packing up here.

SEARCHING FOR SIGNAL

I'm Sin Jun-young.

A few months ago,

my doctor told me

that I didn't have much longer to live.

Well, it's a bit baffling,

but everyone dies eventually anyway.

What

worries me the most

is that the people I love

might think I was unhappy.

I was really, truly happy.

I had a great life,

and I couldn't have asked for more.

I think

that knowing my time is limited

helped me show my true feelings.

It gave me courage.

I consider it as my final blessing.

Yesterday

marked the end of the three months the doctor gave me.

Right now,

as you're watching this video,

am I

still alive?

And...

my love,

No Eul.

How is she doing now?

Sir!

Where are my tapes?

I worked on that for over three months.

I even got death threats over it.

Give it back.

Do you think I came back for this?

I'm not doing this to save my skin.

Think about who you're dealing with.

Illegal rebates are so common, no one would care about articles on them.

I traced at least three billion won.

Hundreds of doctors are taking bribes.

- We shouldn't cover it up. - We shouldn't.

But

this changes everything.

- My goodness. What's all this? - Eul.

Turn a blind eye, just this once.

It's not that hard to do.

The freedom of speech

shouldn't give in to capitalism.

But then, I did spend a lot on expenses,

and if I give some to the staff, there won't even be much left.

You're right.

You should take some, too.

No. Don't worry about me.

I have this

and this is all I need.

You got a foreign brand car. I envy you.

Are you getting this?

Getting what?

Do you see the camera up there? Say hi.

- Eul. - Thank you.

Thanks to your statement,

I can add bribing the media to the list of charges.

Make sure no one steals your tapes.

Hey.

YOU DID A GREAT JOB TODAY

You think so, too?

I did a great job today, didn't I?

See you tomorrow, Jun-young.
