Original subtitles

Se-hwa!

Those two lived happily.

Never getting sick nor hurt.

They had lots of beautiful children and raised them well.

Happily, ever after, they grew old together.

More lies.

It was all lies again.

Who are you?

And where are we?

Why am I here?

I saw the people you killed.

I heard their screams.

What are you saying?

Who are you saying I killed?

Who are they?

People who were born with blessings and grew up as someone's loved ones.

people who had met their beloved

and dreamed about growing old together.

You brutally ended the future of those people

in one instant.

I don't know anything.

I'll erase all you know.

I'll turn your life into a blank page

so that you can't remember anything

so that you can't be forgiven.

Oh, really!

Let's be careful!

Oh! Ma... Ma Dae-young?

Police? I just saw Ma Dae-young.

The fugitive!

For the last time, I'll tell...

No.

I'll ask you...

Please...

believe what I say.

Believe what I say for once

Let's leave here together for now.

I'm not leaving.

What's wrong with you? Why are you making all these noises.

The installation is complete.

For a short time, you might see more bugs.

But they will all have been treated so don't worry.

We'll see you at the next scheduled maintenance.

Have a nice day.

Keep talking.

You all suddenly got quiet. It looks like you were talking about me.

We didn't say much.

It's been a long time.

Why haven't you come out to our get-togethers lately?

Come sit over here.

She hasn't come yet?

No.

Oh!

Kang Seo-hee is here, too.

"Kang Seo-hee"?

Yes, you're Kang Seo-hee.

Oh, but who invited you today?

I purposefully didn't invite you today, thinking you might feel uncomfortable.

Why? Why would I be uncomfortable?

What did you want to say?

Rather than saying it...

Sister! Come in please!

Heo Joon-jae, I really liked it here.

-It was my first home. -Come in.

Oh my goodness. Oh my!

Give and take.

When you're alone,

do what you want to.

-For sure. -No matter how cold it is outside,

there's always a warm place to return to.

I was able to talk to you, laugh, eat,

and have fun with you...

No one can go home,

especially you.

I won't leave you.

The place where I was could see you anytime.

The place where I could love you as much as I wished.

But if I stay in this house,

I don't think I can stay next to you.

-Then I'll get going. -But,

since you've come anyway,

I think it might be good for you to hear why we've gotten together today

before you go.

Yes, well, I'm sure you all might already know

through social media,

but this lady next to me is Cheong Hae,

CEO Heo's ex-wife.

She's his previous wife.

As she was divorced from him,

this lady was completely separated from her son,

but not long ago,

-the two dramatically reunited. -Oh, my!

-The son who ran away? -Yes.

-Whereabouts unknown? -Yes.

-Congratulations! -Yes, congratulations! Applause!

I told you.

I'd make sure to find my Joon-jae

and return everything to its original place. Look forward to it.

My heartiest congratulations.

It's so moving that you found your son,

but returning your son to his original place...

won't be easy.

That place has disappeared.

What?

You all probably haven't heard yet.

A while ago,

my husband got his will notarized.

Domestic and overseas real estate, stocks, cash, capitai,

everything he owns

will now be left to me and Chi-hyeon

You know when he steps down,

the one most likely to inherit that position...

will be my Chi-hyeon, right?

I will remember well the faces

of everyone gathered here today.

As you live your lives going forward,

pray that you don't ever need my help.

Oh my goodness.

Do you think what she's saying is true?

If that's true, CEO Heo is crazy, right?

Right? Why is his biological son not in the will? And why the urgency?

I know!

For real.

If what she said is true, CEO Heo is a puppet, a puppet!

J

Yes? Hello?

It's me.

Who is this?

What?

Do I know you?

What are you saying again?

I'm being chased by people,

but I don't know why. Should I know why?

What's the matter with you... Didn't I tell you to take your medication?

Have you finally cracked? Where are you now?

I don't really know where I am,

or even who I am.

-Where's Father? -Upstairs.

And those people?

They just left.

I could swear I heard someone saying "Father" in the CEO's room.

But I could have heard it wrong, of course.

Okay.

-Father. -Yeah.

Are you feeling ill?

It's Chi-hyeon.

Yes.

By any chance, has someone been here?

Who?

Oh, the maid said the pest control workers were here.

Is that right?

I was sleeping, so I didn't know.

Okay.

We've tried to check, but the system has been down for the last two hours

-so nothing was recorded. -So,

are you saying you still don't know what's going on?

I apologize. This kind of thing rarely happens.

I will check the entire system.

You bastard! Why are you saying this now?

Here are all the documents.

I've also confirmed that his will was notarized.

Does it really say Joon-jae's father will leave everything

to Kang Seo-hee and her son?

It's been stamped? It's all done?

It seems you're completely abandoned.

Why do I feel deflated?

There's no proof that my father reviewed the will.

What do you mean?

My father...

has lost most of his vision.

Traumatic corneal injury.

I'm not certain,

but he was staring right at me,

-yet couldn't recognize me. -Then why did you come out alone?

why didn't you bring him out?

He said he couldn't believe me... because I'm a con man.

Also, please investigate this.

It's from that woman's bedroom.

What's that? A needle?

The cause of the corneal damage?

-Hey, this one even scares me. -And...

this too.

Kang Seo-hee is too suspicious to be on any medication.

-She probably fed these to my father. -Find out the ingredients of the drug

-and who it was prescribed to. -Yes, Sir.

One more thing.

Her room was filled with these flowers. They seemed suspicious,

so I took pictures.

What flower is this?

Nordic Wolfsbane?

What?

It's also called Stepmother's Poison.

In Roman times, stepmothers used this flower to kill the royal prince

while fighting for the throne.

If it's really Nordic Wolfsbane...

A few years ago in Japan, as well as in Korea,

there were a few murders done with these flowers boiled.

So please help us, Detective Hong. We don't have much time.

Now we have all this evidence,

we have to get the warrant soon and get into that house.

-Hey, do you think it's that easy-- -Okay.

I'll get the warrant quickly,

so don't worry.

Ma Dae-young!

It's me, Kang Seo-hee.

It's me. Kang Ji-hyeon!

Hi. Are you Dae-young?

I'm Kang Ji-hyeon.

Didn't you get kicked out a little while ago?

The Mister told me

that I will return to that house again.

But then, why were you kicked out?

Because I would cry and scream every night

because of scary nightmares.

Is it a rich family?

My twin sister went to a rich family.

I wish that would happen to me too.

Even after I get adopted by that family,

can I still write letters to you

if I have any questions?

Thank you.

What have you been drawing?

Is it The Little Mermaid?

Upper Room!

Hey!

What are you doing?

Are you sick? What's the matter? Did something happen?

Don't come near me.

What were you doing?

Let me see.

Why are you so cold?

Go away.

What?

I said, go away!

I wish you wouldn't listen to my thoughts.

I have something to think about,

but because you might hear,

I'm not thinking at all,

and my mind's a mess.

What thoughts? What is it?

Don't even ask.

Do you need my permission to think?

I have no idea what's on your mind,

but you listen to my every thought. Do you know unpleasant and awful that is?

Please stay away from me.

-Or should I leave? -No.

I'll go far away.

Think about what you want to.

But...

You're...

really okay, right?

Your heart seems to be beating fine.

Go away.

Right, I was going anyway.

So what should I do?

Just leave the room, or leave the house?

If I leave the house, I'll be cold.

I'll just sleep on the couch. I can't hear you from the living room.

I really can't hear.

I will tell you if I do, honestly, okay? If I hear you,

-I'll ask you not to think so hard. -I got it, so leave now.

Okay.

Go to your room. I have to sleep here.

Why?

Cheong told me to get out.

She told you that? She must've caught you doing something wrong.

No, there's nothing more for her to catch. She knows that I'm a swindler.

she knows it all.

Right, there's nothing more to find out. Why did she suddenly kick you out?

She says she has to think.

Then that means there is still something left to find out.

I said there's nothing.

Don't you know what it means when a woman says she needs to think?

What's that?

It means, "You know what you did." It means the guy did something wrong.

The woman is thinking about

what she should do with the guy.

A slow, torturous death or just flog him a few times.

Is that what it means?

Of course.

Are you sure you didn't lie to her

or hide anything from her, or did anything else you could get busted for?

So tell me everything you remember!

Kang Ji-hyeon, Angel Orphanage, and...

Is that a man?

...people I don't know.

Corpses I don't know.

I can hear their screams, but I don't know why they are screaming at me.

How can that be?

Listen carefully to what I say.

I don't know

why your memories are suddenly so fuzzy, but even if you forget everything,

Ma Dae-young is Ma Dae-young.

Ma Dae-young?

What kind of person was he?

Someone who seek revenge.

R-- Revenge?

You really don't remember?

No.

The whole world abandoned you.

Everyone else was happy but you.

Since you were born,

have you ever really been happy, even once?

You have lived as if you were always being punished.

That's why you are taking revenge on the world that abandoned you.

-You've always done what you should do. -So...

you are saying that many people...

really died at my hands?

I can't remember anything.

You've always said you can't emember.

You have a problem with rage.

Maybe when you explode, you can't remember.

Don't worry.

As always,

I will be by your side.

Who you are taking revenge on...

I will tell you.Okay?

Breakfast time!

I really can't hear anything.

Come out and eat.

Hurry!

Isn't that mine?

What?

Why are you shouting?

Yes, soybean paste stew for breakfast.

I asked why you're shouting.

It's soybean paste stew!

What are you doing? This is mine.

Oh, I need that for the time being. Lend it to me.

Hey, it's nice to have some quiet.

I thought my eards would burst.

But, what I covered were my ears. Why is my throat hurting?

A smart person could figure out why his throat hurts.

The stew is so good!

Huh? It's seasoned just right!

Let's eat! Eat!

Come!

Why not?

How did you find the evidence without a warrant?

You obtained it by breaking into a private property. Didn't you?

-You want to get fired? -How is it a break-in?

-Heo Joon-jae is the son of that family. -The son went into his house.

It's not like he broke in.

They opened the door for him and he walked in fair and square.

While he was dressed as a pest control worker?

He always liked those kinds of clothes.

Like uniforms.

That's his personal preference.

Quiet, punk!

The medicine Kang Seo-hee had was anticholinergic,

a muscle relaxant during anesthesia.

It's also prescribed to insomnia patients.

She made him take these,

then she cut his corneas. I'm sure of it.

Evidence obtained illegally can't be admitted in court!

You know it so why are you doing this?

What do I know?

I don't know. I don't know at all!

I met your father's ophthalmologist, to show him the needle.

He agreed that it could have caused the injury.

He said your father needs a cornea replacement soon.

What about the rest?

The will notary witness and the attorney.

we are tracking them.

Wow! You hack that so easily.

I didn't see anything.

Look!

Yes, Madam.

-Has someone been in here? -No. Oh!

A while ago, the pest control company was here for an inspection.

I told you not to let just anyone in here!

Hey, is she going to figure it out?

Tomorrow will be D-day.

Get the search warrant.

If you can't, let's force our way in.

-Honey, -Yes.

Take your medicine.

Your condition must improve soon

so that you can have cataract surgery.

Just leave it here. I will take it a little later.

Okay.

Okay.

Kang Seo-hee's real name is Kang Ji-hyeon.

She was married twice before. Both her husbands passed away,

one from a car accident, and the other, heart failure,

both had traumatic corneal damage.

You met Joon-jae.

What a relief!

Nam will soon get up too.

Even the doctor said

in cases like this, miracle recoveries can happen,

but we have been unlucky our whole lives.

Miracles have never been on my side.

They say there is only so much good and bad luck in one's life.

Since you've used up your bad luck,

all you have left is good luck.

Just like a miracle.

-Mr. Choi Myung-gyu? -Yes.

Allow me to introduce myself.

I'm Choi Myung-gyu.

-Here's mine. -Oh, yes.

So a large-scale aquarium like this can be built on Sentinel Island?

Yes, but I am not an expert.

I specialize in investments. I'm just doing market research.

I see. Let's go.

Okay.

Sand Tiger Sharks originate from Florida, USA.

About 100 million won each.

A whale shark is worth about billion won.

Is that so?

So, if there was a mermaid, how much would that be worth?

A mermaid? A real mermaid?

Not the mermaid-show kind, but a real mermaid.

Well... There was an incident where a corpse

presumed to be a mermaid was discovered.

It hasn't been determined whether it was a hoax or not

However, if a real live mermaid were to be found,

Oh, she would be priceless.

Maybe several hundred billion won?

But... why do you ask, though?

Just curious. I happen to have a close mermaid friend.

Would you introduce

-your close mermaid friend to me? -Oh, of course!

Let's go.

Cry.

Cry?

Why did I tell her to cry?

Tears...

Tears...

Hey, you player-mermaid.

You were going on about romantic love before.

-but I think you prefer dirty love. -You think this is dirty love?

A mermaid?

Nonsense.

Where are you hurting?

I was surprised to get your call, I skipped after-school academy

-and came right over. -Thank you for coming.

I just wanted to see your faces.

I might have to leave this place in the near future.

I wanted to say my goodbyes beforehand.

You are the first truly good friend I've made since I came here.

You became someone I could rely on whenever I had difficulties.

And at times you were more like the big sister than I was.

That's a little burdensome for me to hear.

You can't do anything about it, as it's true.

What about me? What was I to you?

You were a teacher.

I came here knowing nothing, and you taught me everything.

You're really smart.

Oh! What are you saying?

I'm telling the truth. Your stories are too good to not to be shared.

But you're the only one that listens to me. No one else does.

If I try to engage them in a conversation, they either give me money or spit on me.

I suppose it's because I look like this.

Regardless of your appearance,

you're a great life coach to me.

I was lucky to have met you by chance.

They say that life is a series of chance encounters.

If value the chance encounters,

then your life becomes filled with loving connectedness.

If not, your will lead a loneyl life.

See? I really took in everything you just said.

You really are a great life coach.

She's right.

I, too, am always learning from you.

Let me hug you guys, my friends.

Hi Joon-jae, it's me.

I'm at a cafe in your neighborhood.

Can I see you for a second?

I have something I must tell you.

Yeah. I have something I have to tell you, too.

You must have heard.

About my mom.

Yeah, I know.

As we lived in the same house,

I somehow felt close to her and didn't feel like she was a stranger,

but to find out she was your long-lost mother...

I thought

perhaps things like this are fate.

Fate? What kind of fate?

Oh, it's... That is...

I don't know how this would sound to you.

I might have missed the right time.

But I want to tell you at least once, Joon-jae.

Okay. Tell me.

I like you a lot.

Not as a friend. As a man.

For seven years,

I got to see your back more than your eyes.

And it's not like I don't know...

who is in your heart right now.

I like you.

So I can wait.

You're saying you'll wait?

Eventually, won't Cheong have to leave?

I know that she's a strange, fascinating,

charming, and lovely woman.

However...

She doesn't seem to be someone who'll be staying put forever.

-So-- -Don't wait for me.

Cheong isn't going anywhere. She'll stay by my side.

Even if she goes away,

I will follow her there.

So...

don't wait for me, Si-ah.

From now on, don't even look at my back.

Find a good man who can look into your eyes.

I should have told you a bit sooner.

I'm sorry.

Why are you here again?

Because you went to my house. Secretly, like a little rat.

You son of a bitch!

Why?

Why did you go into my house? To meet our father or something?

Joon-jae.

Father tells me that he'd rather not see his conman son.

He says having me as a son is enough!

Shut your mouth.

Why? Did I say something incorrect?

You know you are a conman.

Shit. What an embarrassment.

Why didn't you tell me about the condition dad's eyes are in?

I did. You ignored me.

You didn't tell me about your mom.

Aren't you aware everything your mother has done?

Yet you let it go on.

Why?

Why, you crazy son of a bitch?

You said he was the first father you had. So how can you do that?

Let go.

-Let go! -Stop your mother right now.

Stop her

from doing what she's trying to do to my father.

I already found out everything.

I won't sit back any longer.

If it goes any further, you and your mother...

will both die.

I will...

make sure of that.

Cheong came to see me.

Did you send her just so you could sneak into my house?

Just to keep me away?

Do you think you're in a position to protect anyone?

What is it?

The thoughts you wish I wouldn't hear,

tell me all of them now, including why you're doing this.

The bracelet I gave you...

When I discovered the bracelet deep in the ocean,

I thought it was just by chance.

But when I think back on it now,

it wasn't by chance at all.

That was the moment when everything started again.

I always wondered

why I swam all that distance

across the ocean to see you.

But even that turned out to be fate.

We cannot start again.

-What are you saying? -You said we lived happily,

never getting sick or hurt

and growing old together.

You said that was us in the past life.

Why did you lie?

It wasn't happily ever after.

Because of me, you,

and because of you, I,

both died in the end.

In the cold sea.

That...

How did you...

The day you went to your father's house, I met Heo Chi-hyeon.

And I also saw Ma Dae-young.

Because I held Ma Dae-young's hands

and erased all of his memories.

That was when I saw

deep in hie memoires, our story of the past.

And...

To me, the scariest dream is...

that everything would repeat itself.

Everything would repeat itself?

I came to know the meaning of the scary dream you feared.

So...

I was your scariest dream.

Isn't that right?

No.

Knowing that it would reapeat itself,

you still wanted to take that path?

I said it's not true.

Who said it would repeat?

That won't happen.

I shouldn't have come.

Nothing would have started again if I didn't.

So...

do you regret it?

Meeting me, coming here,

and us being together?

No.

I don't regret it.

How can I regret it?

I don't either.

Despite knowing all of it,

I just don't regret it.

Meeting you was

something I don't regret no matter how I look at it.

I'm afraid you're going to die because of me.

If...

if such a thing really happens,

your heart must keep beating.

You should know by now,

that even if I'm not by your side,

I will continue to love you.

-Hello? -Hey, you jerk!

I'm ruined because of you.

What will I do now?

Where are you?

Hey Tae-oh,

were you in pain like this?

Were you this sad?

For me...

For me...

I ache like my heart is being torn apart.

I truly, really...

liked him so much for so long.

Stay here temporarily.

No one goes down to the room in the basement,

so stay there during the day.

The maid leaves at 5:00 pm.

-Hey! -It's fine to go upstairs in the evening.

Who's she talking to?

-Did someone go in the house? -It was just Kang So Hee's car

-going into the garage. -Who was-- was someone else in it?

Heo Il-joong knows your voice

and thinks you're his newly hired secretary.

So stay nearby to assess the situation.

Pretend to assist him, making sure he can't go out anywhere.

Prevent him from contacting anyone via cellphone.

Since he can't see, it won't be too hard.

Can you still not remember anything?

Gosh, come to your senses, for goodness sake!

We're almost at the end.

Heo Il-joong knows your voice

and thinks you're his newly hired secretary.

So stay nearby to assess the situation.

Pretend to assist him, making sure he can't go out anywhere.

Prevent him from contacting anyone via cellphone.

Since he can't see...

Who is she talking to?

The other person's voice can't be heard at all.

You still can't remember anything?

Come to your senses for goodness sake!

Ma Dae-young.

...almost at the end.

It's Ma Dae-young.

He can't remember anything right now.

What can't he remember?

Who he is or what terrible deeds he has done thus far...

Why would he be unable to remember those things?

Ask him in person once you've arrested him.

-What about the search warrant? -We'll have it by tomorrow morning.

Thank you.

POWER OFF

-Honey. -Yeah.

I have an urgent appointment this evening. So take your medicine

-and go to sleep early. -Oh, right. Put it here.

Be sure to take your medicine.

Oh, right.

Where is your cellphone?

Oh, well, I don't know.

-I'll be back. -Okay.

Seo-hee.

Yes?

Since you met me,

has there been a single moment when you loved me?

There hasn't been a single moment

when I didn't love you.

-I'll be back. -Okay.

Where are you headed at this hour?

Oh, Son. Where are you?

Would you like to get a drink with Mom? It's been a while.

Somewhere crowded.

I have plans.

I'm with other people.

Take me home. Quickly.

JOON-JAE

It seems the money was deposited under the attorne's name.

Joon-jae...

You shouldn't be home.

Joon-jae.

I was wrong.

Joon-jae...

Nam-doo, please call Detective Hong.

I might not be able to come home tonight. Please look after Cheong.

What's going on?

What's going on?

Not sure.

You were right.

My decision has been wrong all along.

I'm not sure why it was so hard to admit it.

I'm not sure why it took so long.

I always missed

the times I spent with you and your mother.

I wanted to return to those times...

Why have I ignored...

these feelings all these years?

Why was it so difficult to say I was wrong?

I'm so full of regrests, Joon-jae.

If I could be born again,

I'd like to live once again

as my wife's husband and my son's father.

I suppose it's just my greed?

I'm sorry, Joon-jae.

I love you,

my son.

No...

Not yet.

Not yet, Father.

No.

Wait, please. Wait, Father.

No!

Not yet, Father!

Please.

Dad!

I'm sorry, Dad!

I'm sorry!

No, Father.
