Original subtitles

Hyun Woo, let's go home now.

Is Hyun Woo not here?

Hyun Woo!

(Watch this alone unless you want your son to get hurt.)

(Make a live reality show where you are the host.)

(It has to air at 10pm every night, and there must be 10 episodes.)

(If you accomplish the mission,)

(I'll send you proof which shows that Hyun Woo is safe.)

(I will return Hyun Woo home safely after 10 episodes are broadcast.)

Mum.

Mum.

Hyun Woo was kidnapped.

The kidnapper sent me this.

You're the only one who can do this show.

Find someone else.

Please save my Hyun Woo.

My son, Hyun Woo...

was kidnapped.

- What? - Kidnapped?

Please help me.

There's a delivery for you.

(First mission: What's in the boot of this car? Reveal it in the show.)

Hello, I'm Cha Seung In with the Violent Crimes Unit.

Could you come and confirm some things?

Where's my Hyun Woo?

Your son isn't here.

Mum.

- Hyun Woo! - I'm scared.

- Hyun Woo. I'll be right there. - It's too dark.

I'll be there soon.

Where are you?

We're on our way there.

Is Hye In ready?

We'll start in 10 seconds.

Camera, follow her.

(Episode 3)

Follow her.

First, air the studio shot. Once the situation is controlled...

Quickly, camera number five.

Don't shoot.

- Bring the camera. - Stop.

Don't shoot!

Put him here.

Check around this place.

Please check security camera footage...

- around here. - Okay.

(In the boot?)

They arrived at the car the kidnapper specified.

An unidentified child was found in the boot...

in a critical condition.

In a critical condition. He's being transferred to a hospital.

(In a critical condition)

(He's being transferred to a hospital.)

Didn't you say that Hyun Woo called from around there?

Shouldn't you have stayed there instead of going to the hospital?

The police are on the scene.

They're searching.

The camera was a bit shaky. You couldn't see the boy clearly.

Pass the in-ear headphones to Hye In.

Take a close-up of the boy.

Hye In.

Will anyone be able to see who he is?

Can't you take the respirator off for a moment?

I can't. His life depends on it.

Please take close shots of his clothes, shoes and hands.

His parents might recognise him.

Okay.

Hye In.

This boy was found in the boot of the car the kidnapper designated.

If you recognise him,

please contact the broadcasting station.

(Incheon Dongwoon Hospital)

I sincerely hope that...

his parents are watching this.

We're on our way to Incheon Dongwoon Hospital.

Check reports on missing boys between 6 to 10 years old.

Start from Seoul and Incheon.

Was the boy's face aired?

Stay in touch with Mr Park's team.

I'm heading to the hospital.

The boy is around 7 or 8 years old.

He's showing signs of hypothermia and decreased consciousness.

His blood pressure is 80 over 50. The oxygen saturation is 94%.

He's been transferred directly from the scene.

You can't film here.

Only his guardians are allowed in.

Stop filming.

The boy should either die or talk about the kidnapper...

to make it work.

Are you going to squabble with the personnel for the rest of the time?

20 percent viewership is no joke.

I can air the contact information after the commercials,

but it won't last more than five minutes.

I'll figure it out.

I wonder if Jung Ho knows anyone at the hospital.

Is Hye In with the boy?

Yes, she'll stay with him until his guardian shows up.

Stay here and keep your eyes on the monitors.

- Sorry? - Look.

Do as Ms Yeon and I say.

Don't decide anything on your own.

Okay.

All patients in the emergency room are on edge.

It'll hinder the treatment,

you didn't get any prior permission,

and we can't reach our director since he's abroad.

Let's say,

while your director is abroad,

an intern...

decides to interfere with the show...

and Jung Hye In's son dies.

Won't this hospital have to close down?

Wouldn't it be better to tell people that the show was...

successfully aired thanks to the hospital's cooperation?

Soon,

you'll have to pay us a fortune to be mentioned in our show.

You can't film anywhere else.

Make sure you only film in there.

Of course. When this hospital becomes famous,

I'll make sure people know it's thanks to you, Mr Han Kyu Won.

(We're looking for a boy's family.)

Tidy yourself up within five minutes.

You said Hyun Woo called you five minutes before the show.

The call was...

tracked around the car the kidnapper specified.

Shouldn't you be searching for Hyun Woo?

Why are you here?

(For 20 percent viewership, win the viewers' hearts)

This boy was dying in front of me. I couldn't think of anything else.

I wanted to save him first.

He's just another Hyun Woo.

Mum.

Are you waking up?

Do you see where you are?

What's your name?

Han Sol.

Hyun Woo!

Hello.

- Hyun Woo? - Put it on speaker.

Mum. Save me.

Hyun Woo, it's me.

(Anseong Inn)

Yes, Director.

We found a call log within a 500-metre radius of here.

The inn owner said that...

a man checked in with a boy this morning.

He hasn't checked out.

Okay.

(Anseong Inn)

- Hyun Woo, it's me. - Mum.

Hyun Woo.

You should help me so that I can find you.

I'm thirsty.

Come here quickly.

- Hyun Woo, calm down. - Come here right now.

- Where are you? - It's too dark here.

Hyun Woo.

Mum.

(There's no train running after 9pm.)

Who are you?

It was recorded beforehand.

This call is not from Hyun Woo.

It's the same thing as I heard before. It was recorded.

I just wanted to check...

if you're making the show according to my request...

or you're playing a trick to find Hyun Woo.

Be careful.

If you act up again,

you'll get in trouble.

Don't play this kind of trick again.

If I stop trusting you...

and believing that...

Hyun Woo is still alive,

you won't be able to get what you want.

You must have told me to do this show for a purpose.

I'll do everything,

whatever you tell me to do.

Cut off for a moment.

Okay.

We're broadcasting live.

You said you'd do everything the kidnapper tells you to do.

That's a dangerous thing to say.

We only just started.

This is the only way I can talk to the kidnapper.

You're an actress.

Act if you want to say something.

Make the viewers empathise with you.

You're working right now.

Control your emotions. Take a deep breath.

We're starting again.

Put us back on.

Okay. Put camera number three on.

Okay.

Sir, are you in there?

What is this?

Mum.

I'm thirsty.

Come here quickly.

(The mission was completed. The call was recorded.)

Hand it over to the local station and come back here.

Ask them to search the area thoroughly.

It's me.

We failed to accurately track the latest call from the kidnapper.

It was tracked to Jamaica.

Excuse me.

I'm the father of the boy that was on the show.

I'll call you back.

- Please come this way. - Okay.

Police.

Are you the parents of the boy on the show?

Yes.

Could you tell me where and when the boy went missing?

I'd like to see how he is first.

Please come with me.

Okay.

Han Sol!

Han Sol! My baby!

Are you okay? Aren't you hurt?

My baby.

They completed the mission, a random boy was found dying,

the kidnapper called, and the boy's parents showed up.

It's not a bad development,

but we need something more to get 20 percent viewership.

Han Sol, are you okay?

Put that camera away.

Are you using our son to find your own kid?

An emergency came up. Kill some time.

Please calm down.

We found your son at least.

Are you sure our son wasn't kidnapped for this show?

We're taking him with us.

Let's go, Han Sol.

- Come here. - Mum.

- Here we go. - Mum.

There's something fishy about this family.

We might find something during the rest of the time.

- Put us back on soon. - Okay.

Gosh.

Han Sol, come here.

Come here.

How did you hurt your hand?

I hurt myself during my workout.

Why is that important?

My son is frightened!

Come here.

Did you hit your son and your wife?

What?

What are you talking about?

Tell us if you need help. It's okay.

No, we're fine.

He's just too concerned about the boy.

Please let us go.

Start airing again. Shoot only me.

Are you sure you'll be able to handle this?

Do you know who I am?

Look at me.

Think of your son.

I'm sorry.

I'm going to sue you.

Turn off the camera right now!

Let go!

(To be continued in 60 seconds)

Are you watching the show?

I couldn't say this is a happy situation.

But you don't have to feel bad.

Let's talk when we have the viewing figures tomorrow.

The thing is...

I tried to run away yesterday.

My husband was away.

But...

I had no idea where to go.

I just went to a nearby spa.

That's where my son went missing.

Can you...

save us?

Please get us out.

("Wanted")

I think it was quite all right...

although it was a completely unexpected development.

We still need proof that Hyun Woo is alive,

and we'll have to check the viewing figures tomorrow.

This is not easy.

- He's here! - He's coming out!

- Why did you hit the boy? - Why did you do it?

- Can you say something? - Did you hit the boy?

Why did you hit the boy?

I'm sorry.

Let me ask you one thing.

Did you really rip her clothes...

to help her?

You didn't have to do that.

Did you use her for the viewership?

Think whatever you want.

Answer me.

What if I did?

I don't even have time to cry.

Sometimes I go crazy because I can't remember my son's face.

There's only one thing on my mind.

I have 10 days.

During those 10 days,

I'll do anything.

If I hesitate even for a moment,

I may lose Hyun Woo.

If I lose the audience,

Hyun Woo may get hurt.

I know.

Still,

shouldn't you make sure others don't get hurt?

You can't escape some relationships without hurting someone.

That kid's mum...

would've never told the truth.

The mask has to be shattered...

in order to gain courage.

Did Han Sol get close to anyone before getting kidnapped?

No.

Both of us barely left the house without my husband.

Did anyone know about...

you and Han Sol's hardships?

I think the kidnapper knew it and took Han Sol for the show.

I don't know.

My parents are dead.

I don't have any brothers or sisters.

My husband made me cut off all contacts with my friends...

Then why did you not report to the police?

I'm sorry.

No, it's okay.

I was stupid.

I should've protected Han Sol from him.

Where will you go now?

I don't know.

I really don't know.

I don't know what to do.

I have no idea.

I have no idea.

Mum, don't cry.

It's weird to have you home.

I'm sorry for being so busy.

I'll forgive you if you read me this book. This part.

Again?

How many times did we read it? Haven't you memorised it already?

Okay.

Edmund walked alongside Peter and said,

"Everything will be fine."

"Peter, can we knock Miraz down?"

Peter answered calmly.

"I'm fighting him so I can find out."

Why do you like this part so much, Mum?

Because I want you to grow up brave like him.

("The Chronicles of Narnia")

It's okay. I'll be leaving soon.

When did you get here? I said I'd come and get you.

Are you...

still mad at me?

No.

You...

don't have to do this.

You've done so much over the past two years...

working by my side everyday without any break.

No, I'll work until...

I was going to retire anyway.

The agency can't hold the head position too long for you.

It's a great opportunity.

You can't work on the fields forever.

I saw Chae Eun act and she was pretty good.

I met her on a shoot before. She seemed nice.

You should work with her.

I already told her...

I can't and that I'm sorry.

- Why did you... - This show.

You don't know what will happen.

You can't work on your own...

and you can't hire anyone new right now.

This is...

all I can do for you.

I really...

liked Hyun Woo.

That's why I'm so angry.

I'll find him no matter what.

You don't have to.

He is family.

That's what you do for family.

You're right.

Thank you.

(In the centre of controversy! Actress Jung Hye In's house)

Hye In, you should go rest.

Bye.

Good job today.

I'm tired. Please leave the room.

You're a great actress.

You were so good at it.

Good at it?

Good at what?

I thought you always bailed when you were cornered.

But today, you didn't back out.

I see.

Shall I thank you for the compliment?

What did you do?

Did you watch the show on the sofa?

Of course.

You creep me out.

Let's not tire each other out.

We have a long way to go.

You already knew that I wouldn't go running to you.

I'll sleep at the office, so make yourselves at home.

Tomorrow you'll have to come to the police station.

Have a good night.

I'm so sorry.

I'm sorry to cause you trouble.

Not at all.

You did nothing wrong.

Absolutely nothing.

The adults were bad.

Let me apologise...

on behalf of the adults.

Sorry.

Have this, too.

Drink coffee on an empty stomach and you'll rot your stomach.

I don't care. You said you'll give me a lot of money.

I'll go to the hospital after the show ends.

Did I earn my keep today?

- Do you want me to be honest? - The first episode...

and the preview was all Hye In.

Wow. It's true, but I'm hurt.

You always do well.

Well...

I'm not worried about you, either.

But we'll have to keep making last minute decisions like this.

Mr Choi concerns me.

If he keeps arguing and debating every little thing,

we'll waste too much energy.

I need that.

I won't think about whether or not something is right.

It's nice having someone else do that for me.

You're my accelerator and he's my brake.

Wow. You make me sound like an evil witch.

Once we're done, look at stuff he did as a producer.

If you see his legendary shows,

you'll see things he nailed that I could never accomplish.

The criminals decide...

when the police rests.

But is there ever a day when there are no criminals?

So don't try to rest like everyone else, and...

- Worry about yourself. - That hurts.

Come on, not in front of the kid.

Are you older?

Hey. It's possible.

I have looked the same since middle school.

The chief's here.

The four of you will mark the TV show team.

The kidnapper will keep contacting them with missions and what-not.

Cha Seung In. Any complaints?

You need to find Song Hyun Woo's kidnapper first to find Lee Ji Eun.

Yes, Sir.

Don't become an obstacle to the production team.

Follow them at all time and help them as much as you can.

What if something happens during the show...

and they blame us?

The higher-ups guaranteed that they won't blame us,

- so focus on catching the culprit. - Did they guarantee anything else?

Shouldn't they promote us if we catch the kidnapper?

We'd be on the front line.

Fine. Please just catch him.

Even if I'm pushed down, I'll pull you up.

Any back-up?

I'll give you anything you need,

so call it in if anything happens.

Seung In.

If we stick to the show, our investigation will be disclosed.

If you ignore protocol...

and hold others back like you usually do, I won't forgive you.

That's enough, you two.

The two greediest ones are stuck together.

I'm going to finish up the paperwork for the Park Se Young murder case.

Wait. I'm not done.

Excuse me.

What are you doing?

I got lost.

I've never been in a police station before.

Are you still here?

Who is he?

He's a reporter.

He was caught sneaking into the production bus.

Detective Cha Seung In,

right?

I'm Jang Jin Woong with "Star Life".

Did you confirm his alibi?

Yes.

You're stiffer than I heard.

I'll be seeing a lot of you. This is my case, you see.

It would be best if we didn't meet again.

Next time, I may not be talking to you as a reporter,

but as a suspect.

That wouldn't be so bad.

You're an important character too.

You may become a star because of this,

or your life may be destroyed.

Let's go.

See you again.

Here you go.

Did you watch "Wanted" last night?

- It was awesome. - Wasn't Jung Hye In a bit extreme?

I thought she was cool.

Maybe she did it to uncover the truth since there was no time.

But why does the kidnapper want that truth to get out?

Do you think Jung Hye In's son was also abused?

May I help you?

Six iced Americanos to go, please.

And make one of them with three shots.

UCN must stop broadcasting the show!

- Stop the show! - Stop the show!

We strongly condemn the production team of "Wanted".

- We condemn them! - We condemn them!

The show must be stopped!

- Stop the show! - Stop the show!

It had the highest ratings.

- Look. - What is that?

- It was real. - Oh, my.

(Professor Kim Woo Jin being investigated for domestic violence)

Look at that.

- Is that 20.3 percent? - Oh my gosh.

We should do something like that.

It saved the company.

- Did you watch the show? - It's so realistic.

(Jung Hye In's Wanted Ratings 20.3)

Here.

Thank... Thank you.

- Iced Americano. - Yes.

Hello.

Hi. You're here.

Is Hye In here yet?

I told her to come later.

Reporters must be camping outside of her place.

She should rest before the show.

Bo Yeon.

Keep calling her and keep tabs on her.

- I don't want repeats of yesterday. - Okay.

Missions are one thing, but passing 20 percent is the issue.

We barely made it yesterday.

But I think people will talk about last night's show...

and bring up ratings for tonight.

That won't be enough.

I feel like we winged it last night.

We don't know what the mission will be.

Do you have an idea?

Which shows pass 20 percent?

Even the hit network shows don't achieve that.

You have to be able...

to follow our show like a drama.

We can't write the story in advance, but we need a concept.

A drama starring Jung Hye In and the kidnapper.

- Exactly. - We need the kidnapper's character.

Hello. Hello. Hi.

Where should I...

Thank you.

Wow. What a nice chair.

What's wrong?

There's nothing we can't say to each other any more.

We're on the same team.

If you plan to participate in the meetings, please be on time.

We don't have time to repeat ourselves.

What would be a good nickname for the kidnapper?

Once we do tonight's show, we'll see what he is trying to do.

It's more important for people to understand the situation,

so it may be better to call him "Hyun Woo's kidnapper".

Rather than naming him,

it may be better to wait and see what people call him online.

Hey you.

Come here.

Why are you back?

To see you.

I had an offer to make.

It's a win-win situation.

This is an opportunity for you, too.

If you find the clues first and catch the perpetrator,

you'll be promoted.

You should be chief by now.

No. Is it too late already?

Stop babbling and go.

Let's be totally honest.

I have this case in the palm of my hand. I'm sick of...

being a gossip reporter.

I'm going to write a reportage on this show.

I've already signed the contract.

It'll be published as a book right away.

If you add me to the team,

I can write you up nicely and with detail.

And share some good intel, too.

Let me think about it.

I'm not interested in your book or my looking good.

But if you give me any useful information, that'll be good.

Any word from Hye In?

No, not yet.

We need to air Hyun Woo's proof of life, too.

It's one of the criteria.

Yes, Sir.

We need to look into the meaning behind the missions...

that the perpetrator assigns.

Why do you think he wanted us to put Han Sol on the air?

I don't think it was a coincidence that he was being abused.

In that case...

do you think he made her do the show to uncover that truth?

That's why you need to work together with our detectives.

Yes, sure.

So? Did you find any leads from Han Sol's case?

The day before the incident, you packed your things and left home.

You slept at the spa and Han Sol disappeared, correct?

Yes.

That night at the spa,

did you see these people?

Or did you meet them before?

No.

I don't know them.

I didn't see them that night, either.

This girl.

Have you seen her before?

She told me...

that Daddy was almost there.

She said I need to run away first,

so that Mummy won't get caught.

She said we'll get caught if we went together.

She said we can meet up later.

So she took my hand and led me out.

What happened next?

I don't know.

She gave me some banana milk.

I fell asleep after drinking that. When I awoke,

I was alone in the car.

You mean where the lady found you?

Yes.

You're so smart.

Thank you for helping me.

Han Sol's dad, Professor Kim,

was released.

Thank you for your cooperation.

You shouldn't go home...

until things are resolved.

Do you have a place to stay?

Until you find a place to stay,

you may stay at my place.

I live at the station anyway.

It'll be safe there.

No. You don't need to go that far.

Someone once opened their home...

to my mum and myself before.

I'm just paying it forward, so don't feel bad.

Okay, then.

Goodbye, Han Sol.

I don't know. It was definitely suicide.

It couldn't have been murder.

There were no drugs in his system.

It has no effect on the cause of death,

but there were pills in his stomach.

I think he took them just before he died.

What pills?

An epileptic seizure suppressant.

If someone without epilepsy takes them, they can get addicted...

and it can cause hallucinations.

There is no history of treatment or prescriptions for epilepsy...

in his medical records.

You came to the wrong place.

There's no one by that name here.

Look into Park Se Young's mother's medical records.

Okay.

Also, he has cancer.

- Cancer? - Pancreatic cancer.

It's spread all over his body.

Do you see the scar from surgery?

It's was recent.

The records say they tried two months ago but closed it right up.

Even if he didn't commit suicide,

he wouldn't have lived long anyway.

Do you think it was out of guilt?

No.

The live broadcast, airing the kidnapping and the suicide...

were all strategically planned.

He may have been able to commit suicide because of the cancer.

What for?

(This is all your fault.)

John Lennon was killed by a stalker, right?

Jodie Foster's stalker tried to assassinate President Reagan.

This woman.

I was looking into that, too.

That woman is an actress named Rebecca Schaeffer.

Her stalker shot her for doing a love-making scene.

I'm going to see Jung Hye In as soon as we get to the TV station.

Get information on the fan club and stalkers from her manager.

Okay.

You should rest more.

Did you get any sleep?

This is better than being home.

I need to do something.

You haven't eaten yet, have you?

I'll get something for you to eat.

No. I'm fine.

Hye In. You'll faint.

Should I just pick from here?

Yes.

What's this?

What?

It wasn't there when I checked at the shop earlier.

(First mission completed. Hyun Woo is alive.)

Earlier...

in the garage,

I left the car door open and stepped away to take a call.

That was all.

I'll call the police and check the security videos.

Come in.

Try to remember.

Did Park Se Young ever contact you...

or call you?

Have you ever met Lee Ji Eun?

No.

I thought about it hundreds of times.

"Why is he doing this to Hyun Woo and me?"

"Did I do something wrong?"

But there's nothing.

I've never even met them before.

The kidnapper used Park Se Young's obsession with you...

to get him to kidnap Hyun Woo without being exposed himself.

Park Se Young knew that he had cancer...

and was dying.

He was taking drugs that caused hallucinations, too.

What about this girl?

Lee Ji Eun is also being used.

The fact that he sent a photo with them together...

means he plans to keep using her.

And afterward,

she may either commit suicide like Park Se Young...

or be murdered.

Then...

are you saying...

the kidnapper is someone involved with these people?

There's a greater chance that he's close to you.

Who is the first person...

that popped into your head when I said that?

Mothers' subconscious intuition...

is often correct.

Hyun Woo...

I can certainly make used of him if I want to.

We have a meeting with an advertiser.

Come in for a bit.

I'm Cha Seung In, the detective on the case.

I see.

It's nice to meet you.

Get changed.

This looks nice.

What is this?

You should meet with the advertisers yourself.

Must I go, too?

There's something I need to hear regarding the case.

You must come to the meeting at least once.

Don't forget what you promised.

Take care.

Can your husband...

be trusted?

She suddenly announced her retirement without consulting us.

There's still six months left on the contract.

Most people in my company wanted to sue you.

We wouldn't have let it get that far.

We should've paid you the penalty of course.

Because Hye In worked with us for a long time...

and because of the whole situation, we decided not to sue her.

Well, thank you.

The show is getting a lot of attention.

As you probably saw yesterday,

the show is unpredictable. The mid-programme ads will do great.

I had a lot of requests already, but I left a spot open for you.

I'm relieved that I am able to offer you something.

The surveillance camera where you parked was broken...

and they haven't fixed it yet.

Of all places...

Exactly.

Why did you park there of all places?

- Pardon? - It's strange.

A hidden camera was found in Hye In's car you drove.

A picture of Hyun Woo was found in the clothes you delivered.

You say you had no idea,

- but I can't check the facts. - It's because...

I work most closely with Hye In.

You shouldn't do things on your own.

You have to be where we can find you for a while.

Okay.

I'm really okay with being suspected.

I'm afraid you'll miss the real kidnapper while you focus...

I'll worry about that.

I heard there were a few stalkers.

Were you the one who dealt with them?

Yes.

Hye In doesn't like things getting out.

So I never reported.

I only have a blacklist.

Has she ever been attacked at a fan meeting or a crowded area?

No, never.

Most of them came to her house or sent her weird gifts.

Park Se Young who committed suicide, is he on the blacklist too?

No.

He didn't do anything terrible to make me remember him.

I don't know who he is.

Can I get the blacklist and the list of the fan club members?

I'll send it to you via email right away.

I'll be in touch.

Gosh.

What? Why did you come here?

Did you get fired?

Who'd catch the criminals if I got fired?

You're bragging. You've grown a lot.

Why are you here?

Because I miss you, Mi Ok.

Stop flattering me and get to the point.

Help me out.

I'm on sabbatical.

I only need to see the bright side of the world for a year.

That's what you told me to do.

It'll be done in 10 days.

Take it back.

You can ask for help at the station.

Why do you have to drag me in?

I wouldn't normally do this, but it's an emergency.

If you help me, I'll be loyal to you forever.

I want to do everything I can.

"It wasn't your fault. You couldn't help it."

I never want to hear that again.

Take it with you.

Call me.

(Mi Ok)

Yes, Mi Ok?

We'll have a meeting with the squad.

I'll be right there.

Did the kidnapper contact you?

If I were the kidnapper, I'd send you the proof...

that Hyun Woo is alive, than the show crew.

No, not yet.

I can tell when you lie.

We haven't seen each other for so long.

Don't pretend you know me.

Come to the meeting room.

(Check your email for the second mission.)

(Read it alone.)

(Wanted - Second Mission)

Ms Jung Hye In,

this is the second mission of "Wanted".

Let's end the show.

A person died because our show.

My Hyun Woo will die.

He isn't just scaring people, he's actually killing people.

Who ordered you to do this?

Lee Ji Eun, I arrest you as the kidnapping accomplice.

I beg you.

Please, just tell me where Hyun Woo is.

Tell me where you were with him in the picture.

It's no use. There's nothing there.

Everything that's happening in this show is real.

Jung Hye In's Wanted...

starts now.
