All language subtitles for [NEXT] Hush episode 15

[Places, characters, businesses,]

[and incidents in this television series]

[are used in a fictitious manner.]

You know, honestly...

I miss the cheap
Jajangmyeon and soju years.

It all went wrong

from the day we started
to have expensive meals.

Nothing went wrong.

The day Yong Min died,

my daughter got seriously hurt too.

And I found out the real meaning of karma.

Some are born rich
and stay rich their whole lives.

When they die,

they close their eyes
in a beautiful coffin filled with flowers.

Some spare their flesh to others,

but they don't even get
to close their eyes.

Is this karma?

No.

Your fate is decided
the moment you are born.

[Episode 15]
[A fish never closes its eyes.]

The media doesn't produce fake news.

People want to believe in their own way,

and that wrong belief creates fake news.

Your belief in your dad
created your fake news.

So are you saying my dad received bribes,

and he got what he deserved?

It is an undeniable fact.

It was tolerated at those times.

It was considered normal.

No.

My dad would never do that.

I know. Two years ago,

I had to ask for
his restoration story to Shilla Today.

What?

What did you say?

I know he was an honest and good man.

Please stop.

You don't know
what kind of person my dad was.

Whenever we had an office dinner,

he went home with a spicy chicken.

Even though
he thought sauce on fried chicken

was disrespecting the dead chicken

and a culinary blasphemy.

That's why
he never enjoyed spicy chickens.

Jun Hyuk suggested to remain loyal,

but I couldn't.

Because I had to bring my daughter pizza.

[Thank you, MBS Producer Lee Yong Min!]

Let's go and have a drink with this.

And buy your daughter pizza.

That's a lie.

There was no evidence of him
accepting bribes.

Can you handle the evidence
if there were any?

Someone hold this.

Let's remember this moment.

This is history.

Okay, good.

One, two.

[Thank you, MBS Producer Lee Yong Min!]

Happy news that everyone likes,

a beautiful story.

There's no such sweet ending
in this world.

So put your mind away from useless ideas.

Do what you are ordered.

You know...

Your mom's too old to making gimbap rolls.

Are you going to let her keep doing that?

Chief!

So why would you unveil it?

You shouldn't have opened the door
you can't close.

Sir, the safe...

What did you steal?

Nothing.

No way.

You were caught red-handed.

Where have you hidden it?

This is not it.

What is it?

I didn't steal anything
but put something in.

[Memoir - Journalism
for the Restoration of Media Trust]

What is this?

When you go to Parliament,

your experience
as a press CEO will help you.

You should have handed it to me directly.

Why did you put it there?

It's the secret safe of the CEO's office,

and you said
there's nothing serious in there.

How dare you say such nonsense?

Director Yoon!

Sorry.

MP Park, you learn
from yesterday's failure

for today's success.

I hope this becomes the cornerstone

of your political career.

From Han Jun Hyuk.

I hope someday this safe
holds your achievement.

Or even Daily Korea's great legacy.

So...

Are you saying this is the great legacy?

A key to success?

I wanted it to be a surprise gift.

I acted out of my way.

My mistake. I should have understood.

I am sorry, sir.

Let's go.

Make way, please.

You must've had a dream
when you were young.

Yeah, I did.

I wanted to dig out the evil
in this world,

and fix it to make this world
a fairer place.

I want you to do whatever you want to do.

Today, strange things
are happening in Korea.

People blamed the CEO
for the intern reporter's death.

And the CEO admitted it's his fault,

saying he practically let it happen.

Overnight, suicide became murder
and suicide again.

Overnight, the CEO becomes the suspect

and that suspect
bravely reproaches himself.

[But can't you see something is strange?]

You should finish it.

What is he doing with that weird mask?

He is called the "Mask Man".

He is one of the popular NewTubers.

With around 2 million subscribers.

2 million?

So he makes 2 million won a month?

No, much more than that.

2.3 million then?

Would you...?

Not for me.

I don't like this NewTube or Nutria thing.

Finish it.

2.5 million won then.

I'm going to the Parliament.

Okay.

Which looks better, CEO An?

This one.

It reads better.

This looks more dominant.

Can we change this part to white?

I think white would look more neat.

[Beyond the Parliament, to the Blue House]

His nomination
was decided a long time ago.

He's choosing the district for nomination.

He erased "No Gain, No Pain"
with An Ji Yoon

to manipulate his own image

and secure the nomination, right?

The press conference and tabloids...

Other newspaper reporters
have already been aware.

Darn it.

I lost my touch. Guess I gotta quit.

You didn't see it
because you are an insider.

Han Jun Hyuk foresaw that

and went up there
instead of being down here.

But...

Do you think he really wanted this?

What do you mean?

I can understand it
if he did it for the money.

But he wouldn't have done that

for the gold badge.

I think there's something we are missing.

What happened?

Have you received any bribes?

What?

Have you received
any money for stories, even once?

Never.

What about my dad?

Of course Yong Min never did.

No, Ji Soo.

You got it wrong.

How can you say that
when there's evidence here?

How about we exclude Yong Min?

Let's wait and see.

We already lost Jae Hak.

If Yong Min's gone,
we would have no one from MBS.

We should keep him.

Jae Hak and Yong Min are the same.

They are so full of themselves.

Please do what I say just this once, okay?

Show them this bribe envelope
and say this.

"Let's go have a drink."

"And buy your daughter pizza."

This one lie will solve everything.

Please do this once.

Then the other time...?

Of course it was fake.

I'm having a hard time saving money.

I have to do it behind my wife's back.

Are you kidding?

Did you really think
I go around taking bribes?

How can you think of me that way?

I thought it was really weird.

Thank you.

Hey, Jun Hyuk...

This money? It's okay.

I saved it for a new fishing rod.

Fishing rod?

We already lost Jae Hak.

We have to have
a real journalist like you.

If you quit, I would quit too.

I would rather go to
the East Sea and be a fisherman.

Why do you keep hanging out
with those guys

when you have to do things like this?

I needed to fall down to the same level.

I had to write stories
and receive a salary.

I had to earn my living.

My dad...

What a dummy. I pity him.

It's my fault. I caused it.

I caused that misunderstanding.

No.

I promised myself.

Not to be deceived
whatever he shoves in my face.

But I failed.

I blame myself for doubting my dad

even for just a short moment.

It was my mistake.

It's between me and Chief,
so I'll handle it.

Sir, aren't you hungry?

Slow down, you'll burn your mouth.

I haven't had a proper meal today.

I was starving.

How about you?

Chief seems to know
why you went up to the 15th floor.

Of course he does.

Why don't you tell the gang?

We can solve this together.

I don't want to make them
suffer even more.

It must be hard being on your own.

Can I help you in any way?

You've already helped me enough.

No one made who you are now.

You found your own name tag

and became a real reporter.

You fulfilled your part with that.

Thank you, Ji Soo.

Don't worry about me.

It's all going to be okay tomorrow.

[My loving son]

[Hong Kyu Tae]

["No Gain, No Pain" Hush!]

If you don't do anything,
you might face nothing.

So hush, and don't say anything.

[Memoir - Journalism
for the Restoration of Media Trust]

Guys, it's my treat today.

Enjoy it.

Right.

Ju An, Ji Soo.

My loving juniors, dig in.

Huh?

Have you won a lottery?

Thank you, ma'am.

Is it a special day?

It is.

My son won 10th place in the exam.

Really? Wasn't he always at the bottom?

Hey.

He was 30th among 32 students.

Anyway, I don't know what happened to him.

He's gone past 20 classmates.

Of course, good news.

Congratulations. It's also delicious.

I wondered what good
comes from raising a kid.

This is the rewarding moment.

Of course.

When my Parker got into Stanford,

I got more excited than
my own college acceptance.

I have a long way
to go to raise my kids for college.

Those are good times though.

Extra classes,
college preparations, and tuition...

After graduation, they have to get a job.

After that, marriage.

You'll spend more and worry more.

Time flies without you noticing.

You blink, and it's already tomorrow.

Don't worry about me.

It's all going to be okay tomorrow.

Kyu Tae.

Manager Han.

Can I ask you for a cup of coffee?

Why? Is your machine broken?

No, it's working fine and tastes great.

I just miss the taste of your coffee.

Don't be greedy.

I'm going to stay in this office
for a long time.

I'm not talking about that.

Well, it's just...

Jun Hyuk came down in the morning.

Jun Hyuk did?

What is it?

I would like to have coffee with Chief.

Ji Soo, I'm talking with him...

Editor Um.

I'm having today's morning coffee

with Reporter Lee Ji Soo.

Okay, I get it.

Enjoy your coffee.

What's the important issue?

The day when Soo Yeon
fell in front of me...

I didn't know where to go.

What?

I wanted to run somewhere.

But then I thought...

Soo Yeon must have pondered about that too

just a few hours earlier.

Why are you talking to me about that?

What does this mean?

Never insult me or my dad again.

And I'll never be deceived by you.

I mistook it.

About the reason Jun Hyuk got up there.

It wasn't for exposing inside corruption.

Jun Hyuk is quitting to go to Parliament.

He won't be a reporter anymore.

He'll be the Director of Candidate Park's
election camp.

He already back-stabbed us
and found his own way.

He can go wherever he wants to go.

It doesn't really matter to me anyway.

I mean you should follow his example.

You want to know what this means?

It's evidence that someone ignored her.

It's the security tapes
of the day she died.

Right before she made the wrong choice,

someone might have stopped her,
but didn't.

It's all in here.

I don't know anything about that.

If you are unrelated,

you will be okay if I expose this, right?

Do you think she killed herself
just for what Chief said?

You are not a trash reporter
like Jun Hyuk,

but a decent human being.

Your career just started.

Become an exceptional reporter,
then your mother...

My mom told me this.

Don't forget I'm the proud daughter

of Producer Lee Yong Min.

Then she'll let me live any way I want.

But I don't like to eat
just anything to survive.

Sometimes, a dry gimbap roll
tastes good enough.

But sometimes,
a feast doesn't give me any appetite.

Like the hangover soup
you bought me yesterday.

You know,

I went there with someone else later.

It was really delicious.

I'm Reporter Lee Ji Soo from Daily Korea.

I'm here for a story.

Could we check the security tapes?

Yes.

Thank you.

What for?

It's my business.

What is this?

Whatever it is,

the fact is that you tried to bribe me.

"Shocking!"

"Why would the Chief Editor
bribe a female junior reporter?"

Who believes preposterous fake news?

Fake news?

People want to believe in their own way

and that wrong belief
creates fake news, right?

Lee Ji Soo.

If you want to fire me, fire me.

If you want to knock me down, do it.

But...

I'm not going without a fuss.

Do you know who made you a reporter here?

If you are talking about Soo Yeon...

No.

The reason you were accepted
as an intern in the first place.

I told you I'll never be deceived by you.

Ask Jun Hyuk yourself.

It's not about me, Yong Min or Jun Hyuk.

Look for your own flaws.

Yes, sir.

Are you threatening me?

I'm not threatening you.

I'm giving you a chance.

To us all, including you and me.

To us all?

I think...

This is the last chance for us
to ask for her forgiveness.

That night...

I ate dinner with the CEO.

Did you finish your internship today?

Yes.

You did a good job.

Keep it up with your juniorship.

Yes, I will try my best.

Here.

This is Digital News Desk?

Yes, sir.

Don't call me sir.

Call me uncle.

You did internship here?

Yes.

Your fellow interns all owe you.

They will be loyal to you forever.

They get to have regular positions
thanks to you.

Yeah, right.

But Uncle, I have something
to tell you about that.

What is it?

One of them won't get a regular position.

I feel bad for her.

Who said that? Chief?

Yes.

Why?

I think...

It's because of her academic background.

Really?

I don't mind hiring just anyone.

I guess she wasn't even qualified
for that "anyone".

Right?

She was like that cadaver in the painting.

All gutted out.

She was nothing more than that corpse.

You are the one with the scalpel.

You're on a different level
than the corpse.

Don't be bothered.

Owners don't care about the petty stuff.

Okay.

Let's go up to my office...

No, not that.

It's going to be your office one day.

Let's go up and have a glass of whiskey.

The night-scape up there is magnificent.

Okay.

It is amazing, right?

Yes.

[Opening a new tomorrow]
[Window that opens the truth]

Sir, I forgot something at the office.

You should go on ahead.

You did?

See you back in the car.

Okay.

I really didn't know.

I wasn't sure she was even there.

Even if I knew,

what should I have said to her?

All interns are going
to get regular positions thanks to me,

but you didn't even qualify
for being just "anyone".

That's why you failed.
Should I have said that?

I didn't have anything...

I didn't have anything to say to her!

I know it's not your fault.

But...

No one did any good here.

There's no copy, so don't worry.

Just keep quiet about it for a while.

I will.

Soo Yeon's death was indeed a suicide.

But many people brought about her death

or remained as spectators.

Like Ji Soo said, it was a murder.

What if Kyu Tae
consoled her with comforting words?

I'm sorry, Soo Yeon.

I will do it for you right now, so wait.

No, sir.

It's my last day, so let me finish it.

Hey, I said wait.

Lee Jae Eun, what a devil.

What if I went right away
to stand the night duty?

Do you want me to wait?

No, the subway will be closed soon.

Thank you for the "Gimbap".

Okay, I'll go. Keep up the good work.

Okay.

What if Ji Soo
didn't leave her to be alone?

I'll go with you.

It's our last day. We should drink it off.

I'll let you taste
my out-of-this-world somaek.

What should I do...

Ma'am, do you need me to do something?

What if Reporter Lee
didn't make her do the night duty?

No.

I can't make an intern do the night duty.

The interns. How are they doing?

Everyone's astute and smart.

Good-natured.

I was worried about the blind selection.

But the employees' reaction
is better than expected.

How about we keep doing this?

What if the Chief didn't say
what he had actually said?

Right.

I think I will keep doing this.

Can I not do
the intern training evaluation?

I really don't want to.

I almost suffocated.

What if there were no internship
in the first place?

Would she still be with us?

Congratulations.

What if someone asked her if she's okay?

What if one more person
reached out a hand?

It was not a hurtful word that
drove her off the cliff.

It was because of our indifference.

Anyway, we who are alive
have to face the truth.

He said there was no copy,

but I think he's lying.

What do we do
if he expose it to the media?

You didn't tell the MP, right?

No.

Good.

Don't worry. It doesn't mean anything.

He knows well that
no press will report that.

He won't be rash.

Right, Chief?

Of course.

I'll deal with it before it gets tricky.

Really?

Yeah. It's nothing to me.

I'll put it away.
Nothing's going to hurt you.

Don't worry, just wait.

Reporter Ku, it's Han Jun Hyuk.

About Oh Soo Yeon's story I promised...

You confirmed it with your Chief, right?

Yes, of course.

Don't worry.

What? Right now?

Okay, I'll wait.

[Yeon Doo]

Yeah, hello?

Dad?

It's me, Yeon Doo.

Hey, Yeon Doo.

Yeah.

You don't text me these days.

I like when you text me.

Sorry.

I'm busy these days.

I'm sorry.

You are making excuses.

Are you busy today too?

I want to show you something.

I'll send it to you.

My nickname is Han Cello these days.

Because I'm good at it.

Right, you were really good.

I was in third place among 10 competitors.

The way I see it, you are the best.

Dad.

People on the internet
say reporters are trash.

Why the heck?

It's because...

Yeon Doo, let's go.

Teacher.

Dad, I have to go.

I'll help you.

No, it's okay.

I'm fine by myself.

Yeon Doo, I'm...

Shush!

I was worried
because I almost forgot your face.

But one thing's the same for sure.

Your scent, Dad.

Ask Jun Hyuk yourself.

It's not about me, Yong Min or Jun Hyuk.

Look for your own flaws.

I don't want to care about a backstabber.

[What's the result of the political bargain
between Daily Korea and Nammoo Food?]

[There's no tomorrow for Daily Korea]

They made an exclusive of MP Go
into a misreport,

and pushed ahead a deal
with Nammoo Group for stories.

Daily Korea wanted more.

More than the eradication
of "No Gain, No Pain".

Park Myong Hwan and An Ji Yoon.

I'll expose both of them at the same time.

What?

I want to expose them too.

Writing the story is not the problem.

We can't upload it.

Right.

Chief will kill it eventually.

I'm not going through him.

I'll upload it with my authority.

You can't!

It's...

I can't be fired.

Don't worry. You guys won't be included.

No, I want to be.

Editor Yang...

If Captain does it, I do it.

No, no one should do it.

Our youngest one grew up overnight.

She's worrying about her livelihood.

Right, I'm proud of her.

But somewhat sad.

It's not because of that.

They pay us alright,
but there should be a line.

They are making money
out of an employee's death.

And the CEO is trying to go up high

with his company as a stepping stone.

And people who are getting
the crumbs under him.

Darn it.

We exist for that.

We exist to expose and stop those devils.

Right.

I'll gladly expose that
all this dirty stuff

was for our CEO to become MP
and even the President.

I'll write it. You should play innocent.

Let's do it together.

If we are going to regret it,

we should just act on it.

Right.

Let's mess it up properly
and regret it thoroughly.

Let's do this!

No, I mean Reporter Han is...

He is fighting.

He's fighting hard by himself.

So stop me.

Help the Captain
and other seniors to do it.

But how can I?

How can I stop
what you do on the 15th floor?

It won't be easy.

You might face terrible
and distressing moments.

But Ji Soo, I...

I will reveal who made Soo Yeon do that.

Trust me and wait till the end.

What are you talking about?

Reporter Han...

He didn't stab our back for his own sake.

He wanted to end it all by himself,

not hurting you guys.

He is pretending to be a backstabber.

So we have to trust and wait for him.

That's how
we stop Daily Korea and the CEO.

That's also how we protect Reporter Han.

Why didn't you tell us sooner?

She knew because she had to know.

She didn't tell us because she had to.

She must have been worried sick inside.

It's not our little one's fault.

Jun Hyuk's our family.

It's our fault for not believing
a family member.

I know.

That you couldn't call Yeon Doo
because you were sorry.

That's how parents feel.

Just a whiff of their scent, and...

[Reporter Han Jun Hyuk]

Sorry, sir.

I couldn't keep it from them any longer

[Reporter Han Jun Hyuk]

What's this?

What do you think?

It's a designer bag.

Really?

Where did you get the money for it?

It's not really a designer bag.

Your dad once gave me that kind of bag

and told me it was a designer bag.

He said if I use it long enough,

it will become a designer bag.

Man.

Dad wasn't poet material.

Poet? Right.

Hey.

Look above the closet.

Your dad was indeed poet material.

What?

[My Love Young]

[The night breeze caresses
your face and brings it into my heart]

[Daily Korea]

[Detective Kim]

[I read your story. Let's grab a drink.]

Yeon Doo.

Me saying I was too sorry to meet you,

it was just an excuse.

[Daily Korea]

If it was my fault,

I should have run to you faster
and said I was sorry.

Yes, Yeon Doo.

It's my fault. I'm sorry.

And...

I'll stop being a trash reporter
starting today.

Reporter Ku Ja In, right?

Yes, I'm Ku Ja In.

I'm Han Jun Hyuk.

Hi.

You must have had a lot on your mind.

Let's go up.

So this is Intern Oh Soo Yeon's...

Yes.

It's the recording and related evidence

of those who brought about
or neglected her death.

Most of all,
they made an exclusive into a misreport

for the illegal nomination
of CEO Park Myong Hwan

and manipulated public opinion
with bribed stories.

Also, all the illegalities
that I committed for them

in the executive office are in there.

Whistle-blowing is not easy.

You made a tough decision.

You knew it was never going to be printed.

I guess you doubted him less

because he was an outsider.

How long have you known?

I don't know.

I doubt from the start to the end.

Honestly, you were so useful.

So it felt like a waste
to throw you out right away.

What could I do?

Until you swallowed the hook
deep inside your throat,

I used you up.

You've known all along?

Let's have a drink together next week.

Yes, sir. I will call you.

Ms. An.

I'll tell the CEO myself.

Shush.

I'll shut my mouth.

So close the door well, please.

You worked hard.

But...

Didn't I teach you?

First, decide the tone.

Second, don't tell anyone
before it's finished.

You are right.

I haven't finished it yet.

Let's not mourn too long.

What's happened to us?

You told me it's not even a problem.

No one will know if we shut up.

Yeah, but...

It's because Yong Min was weak-minded.

Think about it.

Was it a problem big enough
to kill himself?

At those times?

Those times?

Soo Yeon knew it all before she died.

The relationship
between Kyu Tae and the CEO.

She knew you threw all the interns in

to hire Kyu Tae as a regular employee.

She must have suffered a lot.

But she didn't mention you
or the CEO in her will.

So are you saying I have to thank her?

Are you saying that?

So what would you have done?

Expose everything and go to jail?

Yes.

I was going to. But...

Never mind.

I know it all.

You chose Shilla Today

not because of Reporter Ku,

but because of Chief Kim.

Chief Kim of Shilla Today
released a column.

"Daily Korea needs to be rebuked
for its misreport,

but deserves praise
for their swift confirmation.”

Chief Kim’s your university alumni, right?

Good job.

You must have known
my relationship with Chief Kim.

There's no way you forgot about him.

This is our last put up job,

so you signaled me to stop you.

Why wouldn't I know that?

You are my protégé, no matter what.

I know.

I thought I wasn't.

I insisted I wasn't.

Good job on
your last-minute emergency signal.

I have to know about it first
to handle it.

Sir.

Can you really handle it?

There's no copy,

but I tipped off Detective Kim.

A cop?

It's okay.

A goose chase is what they do every day.

What about the CEO?

There are things I've done.

He will not gloss over it.

He already knows everything.

I even heard you told him to shut up.

Whatever the situation,

if you have the will,

I can handle it somehow.

This isn't fresh enough.

Let's say goodbye some other time.

You have to hang in there
until your daughter grows up.

I guess it's not our time to say goodbye.

[Hopeful, Upbeat, Ji Soo's Korea]

[Dreaming of Ji Soo's Korea
filled with hope and positivity]

[Hopeful - Filled with hope]

[Upbeat - Surging with positivity]

[Ji Soo's]

[Han - kook - Korea]

[H.U.S.H.]

Stop!

Don't cry, sweetie.
