Original subtitles

We'll arrest everyone on the list before the night is over.

We must find out who is behind all this,

so round them all up.

Every disaster is preceded by warning signs.

Spies from the North...

have infiltrated Gwangju to incite a coup.

If you encounter anyone...

who seems to defy the government, arrest them immediately. Understand?

- Yes, sir! - Yes, sir!

Just like you can smell gas before an earthquake,

and just like animals ascend the mountains before a tsunami.

- Stop right there! - The strange, ominous feeling...

that only those who are sensitive can pick up.

Because I grew up with anxiety,

I was always sensitive and alert.

And now that I had someone to protect,

I had to be more alert to sense such warnings.

Why are you praying first thing in the morning?

I prayed...

that you wouldn't snore.

Liar.

Did I snore?

Sleep some more. The sun hasn't come up yet.

Why are you changing the subject? I asked you if I snored.

You didn't snore.

Come here.

(Episode 9, Warning Signs of a Disaster)

Lads. Get your act together, okay?

- Yes, sir! - Yes, sir!

Oh, boy.

I was wondering why it was so quiet for a few days.

I guess we'll cry our eyes out again.

If they want us to do this,

shouldn't they at least give us some gas masks?

Goodness.

I'd like to report a missing person.

Oh, no. Is your child missing?

How old?

No, it's an adult. Age 26.

(Electronics Store)

I had caught you red-handed...

What?

No, it's nothing.

Okay, so the missing person is 26 years old.

Is it a female?

No, a male.

Oh, a male? Okay.

Then what is your relationship with him?

- Is he your boyfriend? - Sorry?

No, he's my friend.

I see, a friend.

Oh, no. Has your friend gone missing?

You must be worried.

By any chance, did you receive...

any accident reports last night?

No, not really.

Hold on. Can you give me your number?

But...

what do you need my number for?

We need to know the number of the person making the report.

I'll call you right away if we receive news of an accident.

So...

Can you write down a number where I can reach you?

It's standard procedure.

Okay.

The Government held an emergency meeting...

at 21:30 last night...

and decided to enforce martial law nationwide as of 24:00.

What is he talking about?

- The government spokesperson... - Enforce martial law nationwide?

commented at 23:30 last night...

Didn't you read the paper yet?

They decided to enforce martial law nationwide last night.

On these grounds,

starting 24:00, May 17, 1980,

the emergency martial law is in effect nationwide.

Considering the current situation...

Wait a minute, ma'am...

- The entire nation is deemed... - What the?

to be in a state of emergency, and as of 24:00, May 17,

- the emergency martial law... - Come on, what's this?

is in effect nationwide.

Myeong Hee.

Before we go, let's drop by Hye Gun's.

I need to get some stuff.

Then why don't we split up and meet back here?

Why do you want to split up?

Where are you going?

I want to go see Myeong Soo.

I just want to say goodbye.

No. Let me go with you.

What if you come with me and bump into Jung Tae?

Then I'll stay hidden somewhere.

It's just that I had a bad dream.

My gosh.

Didn't you say you want to leave as soon as possible?

We'll be able to save time and leave earlier if we split up.

So let's go about our business and meet back here, okay?

Okay then.

Isn't Soo Ryeon answering yet?

No.

I heard there was a huge protest in Seoul last time.

What if something happened to her?

Come on, I bet she's just busy.

They're probably looking around real hard to find a new house.

Then shall I send your aunt to check on her?

Gosh, they're not babies.

They're probably doing just fine.

I'll tell her to call you once I get in touch with her.

So go to your room and get some rest.

Okay.

Hye Gun, I came to get my guitar...

Hye Gun. Jung Hye Gun!

You...

Hwang Hee Tae?

Hye Gun told me to come over last night...

and we were supposed to meet here.

But when I came, this place was totally empty.

The door wasn't locked, and the chairs were all busted up.

They enforced martial law nationwide last night.

The martial law was in effect the whole time anyway.

Are you stupid?

This means that the new military regime...

is on the verge of starting a coup.

I know. But what does that have to do...

with Hye Gun's disappearance?

I'm afraid the Defense Security Command...

is behind this.

So...

- I was thinking... - No.

What? I didn't say anything yet.

It's obvious.

You want me to ask my father...

if Hye Gun was taken, right?

Do you still not know what kind of man my father is?

If I ask him, he won't stay still...

and make matters ten times worse.

Things will turn more dangerous if I get involved.

Then...

what will you do now?

You said Myeong Hee will be in danger...

if she gets involved with you.

That's why Myeong Hee and I are leaving today.

What? Where to?

Anywhere.

As long as it isn't Gwangju.

If you're going to keep fighting, go do it in Seoul.

If you're thinking of staying here, wear a hat at least.

Sun Min?

Where's Hye Gun? Did he not come home?

Myeong Hee.

Hey, little bear.

Don't you have training today?

We're human beings too, you know. We need our rest on Sundays.

What brings you here suddenly?

Myeong Soo.

I...

will be leaving Gwangju for a while.

What? Why?

Where are you going?

When are you coming back?

I'll call the training camp later...

Are you going abroad?

You said you weren't going last time.

Goodness, I'm not going abroad.

I promised I'd go see you compete at the Nationals.

I always keep my promise no matter what.

You know that, right?

Are you going alone?

I'm going with a friend.

That's good enough for me.

Promise you'll come to the Nationals.

You promised.

Goodness.

We need to take a detour because of the protest.

Passengers headed to Geumnam-ro or Gwangju Station...

- need to get off at this stop. - Those darn demonstrations.

Don't they even get tired of it?

Darn it.

- Wait a minute. - What's going on?

What's happening?

Drag off all the college students!

Hey, come here.

I'm not a college student. I'll show you my ID.

Come with me.

Let me go! I'm not a college student!

You brat, how dare you?

Do you think this is a joke?

You little...

Who are you?

What are you doing? Go after them!

Are you okay? Are you hurt?

No. I'm okay.

What on earth is going on?

I don't know. I heard something about martial law.

The situation seems pretty serious.

Let's head to the station.

We'll be okay if we stay off the streets and go around.

Hee Tae.

- Hee Tae... - What? Why?

Darn, what is this?

I said I'm okay.

Hey, Myeong Hee. What brings you here?

- Hello. - It's me again.

Myeong Hee, what are you doing here? You're off today.

I'm here as a guardian.

What?

Who is this gentleman being protected by you?

He has a guitar. Is he a singer?

His head is busted, so maybe he's a college student.

He's my boyfriend.

Your boyfriend?

Is he really your boyfriend?

Yes. So please hurry up and take a look at him.

Well, okay. Please have a seat.

Let me take a look at your wound.

Well...

He doesn't need any stitches, but he may need a CT scan.

How long will a CT scan take?

You'll have to wait until this evening.

We have so many patients with head wounds.

Then I'll just leave after you disinfect my wound.

Come on. Are you a doctor?

Give me that.

Myeong Hee's boyfriend, Mr. Hwang Hee Tae...

Hwang Hee Tae?

Your name sounds familiar. Hwang Hee Tae... Hwang...

It's from the banner!

Are you that Hwang Hee Tae who went to SNU with top marks?

My gosh. So you are a doctor, after all.

As per Dr. Hwang's self-diagnosis, just disinfect his wound.

Please do a CT scan too. We'll wait.

Myeong Hee.

- Get ready for a CT scan. - Yes, doctor.

Is this the CT Scan Room?

How many patients are waiting...

Myeong Hee, I'm really fine.

It's just a little scratch.

But that scratch is on your head.

You need to get a CT scan, at least.

Fine. Then let's get out of Gwangju first.

I'll get a CT done as soon as we get to another city.

We're at a hospital right now. What's the point?

We're not going anywhere until you get tested.

Myeong Hee. Seriously...

Seriously what?

What's with that face?

If you're unhappy about something, just tell me...

Stay still, you little punk.

All right. Let me ask you once more.

Who is behind the recent torch protest?

I already told you.

College students...

It was all college students who came out voluntarily...

Are you kidding me?

I know there is someone behind you all.

He made you start a rebellion, didn't he?

What are you talking about?

I've never even met such a person.

Are you still enjoying this?

Hey.

Dip him.

No! I'm sorry!

- Get up, you punk. - Please don't!

- Get off me. - I'm sorry!

Please don't do this!

Go on in.

Go on in, you little...

Gosh.

Here.

Go ahead and eat.

You didn't even eat your dinner.

Thank you.

If I go home,

my father would probably prepare a feast for me.

Are you from around here?

I was born and raised here.

Anyway, I wonder how those spies crossed the border.

And why did they have to crawl all the way down here to Gwangju?

By the way, Corporal Lee...

How do we tell rebels apart from ordinary students?

Do you want to skip dinner tomorrow too?

Just follow the orders.

I'm sorry, sir.

The problem with smart ones is...

that they think too much.

You don't have to stay here with me.

Forget it. The test results aren't out yet.

I'm really fine.

Come on.

Thank you for waiting.

Here you go. Since you're a top student,

I'm sure I don't have to explain anything to you.

Doctor.

Take it easy. I was just joking.

It's a concussion.

Luckily, there's no internal bleeding.

Are you still feeling dizzy and nauseous?

Not anymore. I'm totally fine now.

Come on. Don't shake your head like that.

Okay. Well then...

- What's that sound? - It's curfew.

What? There's still a few hours until curfew.

Didn't you know?

With the martial law expanded, the curfew has been moved up.

Hold on. What do we do then?

What else? You're stuck here until morning.

- What? - What?

Don't go wandering out after curfew and get hit in the head.

You can sleep in the lobby or in an empty treatment room.

Now if you please, I need you to empty that bed.

Gosh.

I've never met anyone as stubborn as you.

I've never seen a grown man...

throw a tantrum like you either.

I didn't do that.

If only we had gone straight to the train station when I said...

Then you would've thrown up on a moving train...

from that concussion you have.

Exactly.

If we'd stayed together this morning,

I wouldn't have had a concussion in the first place.

So what? Are you saying it's all my fault?

No, that's not it.

I don't like your tone.

Whatever. Just hurry up and lie down.

Come on.

I'll go and check if there are any extra beds.

Hold on.

Why do you need an extra bed? We can share the same bed.

Have you lost your mind? We can't do that.

What are you talking about? Last night...

- Gosh. - You're embarrassing me.

Keep it down.

Last night, we shared a bed...

even smaller than this one. So what?

Fine. You sleep in this bed.

- I'll go find an extra bed. - Come on.

Forget it. I'll go.

You're a patient right now.

Stop talking and lie down.

- I can help you. - Just lie down.

What a stubborn woman.

I like that.

Hello?

Soo Chan, it's me.

Soo Ryeon. Why is it so hard to reach you?

I'm sorry. I've been a little busy.

How's Father? Is he feeling better?

Yes, he just took his medicine and fell asleep.

What about you? Is everything okay?

I'm good. Is everything okay with you?

I heard there was chaos in Gwangju today.

Hello?

Lee Soo Ryeon. Where are you right now?

Where else? I'm at my place in Seoul.

Then hang up. I'll call you back at your place.

No, you can't.

Hee Tae is asleep.

He's a light sleeper.

I'm going to bed now.

I'll call you tomorrow. Good night.

Hey, Soo Ryeon.

Gosh.

What's wrong? Did it break earlier?

No, it's just a little scratch.

I'm sorry. Did I wake you up?

I had a dream.

What's wrong? Was it a nightmare?

It was about what we saw earlier in the day.

Why do you think the soldiers did that?

Myeong Hee, let me tell you a secret.

I've been struck by lightning, a long time ago.

What?

- Really? - Yes.

I went under an awning to take cover from the rain,

and it hit my elbow like this.

Crazy, right?

I couldn't believe it either.

So all I did was study how lightning works for a while.

But the reason was simple.

I was...

right next to a payphone, that's why.

So I still...

try to avoid being close to payphones whenever it rains.

Same goes for what happened today.

It's like being struck by lightning.

We just...

happened to be standing next to a payphone.

Everything will be fine once we leave Gwangju tomorrow.
