Part 2 A Country of Rage

Hello, Father.

Yesterday,

for the first time in my life,

I wondered if I would have become

a different person

than I am today

if you were alive.

Where are the other pieces?

Hermes?

Are you doing well?

She's gone mad.

She's not afraid of money.

She says she's poor

but she buys what she wants.

Seriously. Unbelievable.

Summons

As you can see,

I am

seriously

totally

a mess.

Silence Pray for the deceased with respect

You may say your last goodbyes.

Umm...

Jeong-woo.

You look just handsome today.

Your outfit is just perfect.

- Stand here. - Okay.

I'm sorry

I'm sorry I didn't know.

Goodbye, Jeong-woo.

You owe me KRW 40 mil. and 50,000 now.

Don't forget and pay me back.

Dad, I...

I didn't become anything.

I got born into this world

and didn't become anything.

I think I won't ever make anything of myself.

That's why I'm so lonely, Dad.

Of course.

You're lonely.

Why wouldn't I know that?

It's okay.

- Don't cry. Huh? - Father...

I think I will become poorer than you.

Father, I...

haven't made anything

of myself.

The Late Jeong Jeong-woo

I was born into this world in the same way.

But I don't think I will be able to

become anything.

The Late Jeong Jeong-woo

Hello.

- Hello. - Hello.

How can I help you?

- How can I help you? - How can I help you?

Thank you.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

Please receive customers energetically and safely.

If you get a complaint,

contact the management team immediately.

Wife Why did you call?

Let's have a great and exciting day.

- One, two, three. Fight on! - She just woke up?

What a life!

Jin Jeong-su

Yeah.

What happened yesterday?

Huh?

What about yesterday?

What do you mean?

You went straight to bed,

wept bitterly, then fell asleep.

Mom was sleeping in the living room.

You didn't even apologize.

When I got in, your mom...

Your mother was out cold, snoring.

Still, you could have talked to her.

What's wrong with you?

What do you mean?

Have some common courtesy.

Courtesy?

She snuck in, opened someone else's mail,

and amidst the chaos, she spent the night.

But I should've woken her up and apologized?

Don't overreact.

And how can you say it was someone else's mail?

People other than me are all someone else.

Your mother, you...

Everyone is someone else.

Okay.

I get it. Wash up and go to work.

Don't get fired from your laid-back job.

Hello?

Hang up. I'm in the toilet.

That's nothing new. Why be shy all of a sudden?

We're family.

What job is ever laid-back?

Why are you yelling all of a sudden?

I didn't...

I didn't do anything.

Hang up.

Is something the matter, Sir?

I called to tell her

I'll be late because of a reunion.

But I didn't get to say that at all.

Why?

Was she already angry?

I can't talk to her nowadays.

She's so...

high and mighty.

Is she going through menopause?

Menopause?

You said she's older than you.

She's only 5 years older.

It can't be.

Could it really be menopause?

It's not easy living with an older woman.

Consider that when you get married.

Why get married? I'm not going to.

Why?

What's wrong with marriage?

It's inconvenient. From beginning to end.

Inconvenient...

Right...

It's inconvenient.

Marriage is losing myself.

What?

Why haven't I thought of that before?

Because you're earnest.

Am I earnest?

Yes.

Even your appearance is.

If it's a reunion,

then you'll be out till 12 or 1 AM?

About 1 or 2 AM.

3 AM if I'm really late.

2 AM, 3 AM, 3 AM, 3 AM...

It's a matter of texting or calling.

Calling would be better, right?

But I'm scared to call her.

Apologize for what happened via text.

Apologize? For what?

You know.

"Come to think of it, I was insensitive."

Something like that.

Oh, right, right.

"I have a reunion, so I'll be late today."

- Oh. - "I'll be home before 12 AM."

Then around 12 AM, you say, "We're wrapping up."

Then at 1 AM,

"I'm trying to get a cab."

"Since I'm in Gangnam, there's so much traffic..."

If you go on like this,

you'll hold out until 2:30 AM.

Wow.

It all sounds so smooth.

What's important to women is

emotional time, rather than physical time.

Wow.

What are you?

Are you a woman?

Oh, my.

You didn't know?

Hmph.

I'll be off now, Sir.

Okay. Bye.

Jin Jeong-su Come to think of it, I was insensitive.

Jin Jeong-su I'll be late due to a college reunion.

Jin Jeong-su I'll be home by midnight.

You know...

Normally, I'd just give that to you.

What?

Don't throw it away. Wash it and use it again.

So...

Would you feel better

if I get off on the next stop?

This situation isn't easy for me either.

But I can't

stay on the bus for you.

Seems like

I need your permission to get off.

Yeah...

It would be

problematic if you stop me again.

I understand.

When a person is extremely sad,

they want to lean on a stranger.

What I'm saying is,

you don't have to feel embarrassed.

So.

Can I get off

at the next stop?

Is that a yes?

Then...

The bell.

If you have more to say,

perhaps I should give you my number.

It's not like the past...

Like the 90s.

Exchanging numbers isn't a big deal nowadays.

What messenger do you use?

Text?

Or...

KakaoTalk?

Okay, KakaoTalk.

What did that mean?

What?

You scrutinized me,

then asked if I used KakaoTalk.

I didn't scrutinize you.

I glanced at you.

You can tell by my clothes?

Clothes have nothing to do with KakaoTalk.

In the past and even now,

people use KakaoTalk a lot.

I was just asking.

You're very sensitive.

What do you use?

I use everything.

Text, KakaoTalk, more recent DMs.

What fits the age and situation.

It's a diverse world.

I'll pay for the handkerchief now.

Jeez.

You're being too cold.

I already gave it to you.

You're right. I use KakaoTalk.

Do you have change?

You want me to give you change?

I only have a KRW 50,000 bill.

Well...

This is...

US $350...

The exchange rate is KRW 1,200 for a dollar.

I think

I'll have to take it all.

It might be because of the day.

Or it might be because you're sadder than me.

My heart

is leaping

and jolting.

I wanted to be kind.

That is my good will.

This is your good will.

Let's leave it at that.

You should've done that beforehand.

We're on a bus, for crying out loud.

At this rate, you'll never get a job.

I can't do the attendance check beforehand.

I'll turn it off after the roll call.

I have to answer the roll call to get back my money.

You're paid to answer the roll call?

No, it's not that.

It's a long story to explain.

How much do you have?

I'm taking KRW 20,000.

Oh.

What was that money earlier?

Huh?

You just put it in Jeong-woo's pocket.

The folded bill.

Looked like there was a story behind it.

You seem infinitely dense,

but you're infinitely sensitive.

A client folded it? Like a talisman?

Oh.

So other women won't cling to you?

Yeah, could be.

What? There really is a story?

I'm putting an address in your wallet.

What address?

Jeong-woo's sister's address I got from the police.

- Sister? - Yes.

Why?

What do you mean?

What's this?

When we were scattering his ashes in the park,

I grabbed a spoonful.

- Of what? - Jeong-woo.

What about him?

His ashes.

Hey!

You!

What the?

Why did you throw it?

How can you...

Take this...

A spoonful...?

You sprinkled it just fine with just your hands.

Why are you surprised all of a sudden?

Hey, that's...

...where you do that.

But here...

Huh?

It's an everyday space.

- How could you... - That's nonsense.

We live all mixed and blended together.

That's not right.

I have to pull an all-nighter at my part-time job.

You give that to Jeong-woo's sister.

But this is...

This is what?

She'll hate it.

If you don't want to go alone, let's go next week.

We need to see her to get the money.

Money?

For the funeral expenses.

Hey.

When have you become so calculative?

The roll call and the funeral expenses...

I was thinking in your shoes,

and it came naturally.

Seriously...

What?

You just hate it?

I just love it. You're the best.

The student

has become the maestro.

The student has become the maestro?

You don't know?

I know.

Music to my ears.

Tougher penalties! Tougher penalties!

Trolling is indirect murder

Tougher penalties for trolls!

No to Trolling! Yes to Polite Comments!

Tougher penalties! Tougher penalties!

Trolling is indirect murder!

Indirect murder! Indirect murder!

Tougher penalties! Tougher penalties!

Stop trolling!

Stop! Stop!

Give tougher penalties...

Ms. Lee Bu-jeong.

What do you do for a living?

Have you heard about "shield lift"?

Shield lift.

Shield is defense.

Lift

is removing it.

It's scariest when the person who knows about me

the most turns on me.

Especially about the bad stuff.

That happened to all the presidents.

There are stalking fans.

They chase celebrities 24/7.

This itself is a problem.

But the biggest problem is

when these people turn,

they become the biggest threat.

Since they have so much private information.

A person is scary because

the nicer they are when they enter,

the more likely they'll be evil when they exit.

With good will, they expect more.

When they are wronged, they feel more betrayed.

That builds up.

It's only a matter of time

for slander to become blackmail.

You're swept up in emotions. You threaten them.

But they don't get scared.

Then you get more agitated.

You exaggerate on the damage you suffered.

Then

you make up stuff.

That's how you come to blackmail people.

Of course,

you've been sued for trolling.

But it could change when it goes to prosecution.

Are you threatening me right now?

Did Jeong A-ran say that?

That I'm making stuff up?

You wrote this, right?

Answer me!

Yes.

Your comments are very well written.

Did you major in literature?

I don't think I have to answer that.

Seriously...

You all

look so normal on the outside.

Hello, Ms. Jeong Flappy.

Just saying your nickname is making me mad.

In this country of rage that's full of anger,

there's much ridicule, obscenities, thoughtlessness...

You do horrible things in secret,

and act like you have character in public...

You do horrible things in secret,

and act like you have character public.

I'd like to gather all the world's filth

and shove it in your flappy mouth.

How is Writer Heo?

Are you two still

doing that in secret?

Oh, dear. I'm late.

Please keep eating.

No, I'm finished. I'm finished.

Please sit.

Okay.

You're substituting

lunch with bread?

No.

I had lunch.

Buying coffee for the same price seemed wasteful.

But I couldn't just sit here.

I got a cup of water for you.

I didn't know what you'd want.

I should buy.

What do you want to have?

Then should I have water

and the same thing you're having?

No.

Please sit.

I asked you to meet me, so I'll buy.

Oh, but still...

Please sit.

Can I have this and that?

The round one.

My friend's daughter is a judicial scrivener.

I casually asked,

Summons

not saying it was about us.

I asked about it.

Yes.

Trolling is

saying bad things

to famous people on the computer and phone.

Yes, I know what trolling is.

Of course.

It was on the news a lot.

The kids are covering it up,

saying they'll handle it on their own.

But I'm so worried

I can't sleep

and I have no appetite.

What in the world did she say?

If things go wrong,

worst case scenario is she could go to jail.

When I heard that,

my heart began pounding.

She didn't hit that person. It was just words.

Why go that far...?

I was so frustrated

and so embarrassed to tell others...

I had no one to talk to, so I asked to meet you.

Of all things,

the accuser's name

has been ripped away.

I don't know who it is.

Chang-suk.

Umm...

Yes?

I don't know who it is.

I'm not saying this because Bu-jeong is my daughter.

Objectively speaking,

I don't know who she takes after,

but she liked books since she was little.

Liking books doesn't have

anything to do with this.

Anyway,

Bu-jeong

wouldn't do that unless she was provoked.

I want to think that, too.

However,

Bu-jeong...

I mean, your daughter sometimes

screams to herself.

You know that, right?

You know she got treatment for that last year.

But that was...

Oh.

Excuse me.

Do you sell soda?

No, but we sell ade drinks

that have carbonated water.

Oh, okay.

I'll have one.

Please get me one, too.

About last year...

You shouldn't say that.

She lost her child.

She had a miscarriage at 5 months.

Because she was busy at work.

Anyway, my Bu-jeong

would never do such a thing

unless she was provoked.

Mom!

Ms. Mi-sun!

Where do you think you're going?

- Mom! - Gang-jae!

- Let go of me! - Mom! Mom!

What's wrong?

You!

What's going on?

She bit me again!

Don't talk down to me in front of my kid.

It's embarrassing!

What is it this time?

He didn't hit you, did he?

He hit me.

No way!

I hit you?

You hit me!

I told you, don't talk down to me!

What's going on?

Did he hit you or not?

- I didn't hit her. - You...

yanked my vest

and pushed me.

Isn't pushing considered hitting?

You attacked me like a rabid dog!

Should I have hugged you instead?

Don't talk down to me in front of my kid!

You want to die?

Kill me! Bite me!

- Bite me! Kill me! - Get inside!

Mom! Stop biting him!

You! Stop talking down to her.

Go inside. Go inside.

Go inside. Go inside.

When I was four,

I got bitten by a pig.

I still remember that.

- I went to the hospital... - Stop it.

Why are the lights off?

Habits are hard to break.

Here.

Why do you bite people, Mom?

Because I have no strength.

Want me to get beaten up?

You're making things up again!

I get beaten, not you!

Not you, Honey!

So why go to a karaoke that has strippers?

I went there, but I didn't hang out!

A mutt would cut off its poo.

A mutt doesn't eat its poo!

Fight after I leave.

Give me my child support.

What is this vibe?

Oh.

Well...

You're not

acting so you won't have to give me money, right?

Get inside.

Oh.

You two talk. The third party is leaving.

Can I give it to you

next month?

Why? You have no money?

I always

have no money.

How can you not give

KRW 300,000 to your only son?

I can't help not having money.

I have no money.

Mom.

Do you love me?

Money is love.

I'll give it to you next month.

Okay, then.

The interest is KRW 30,000 a week.

Come on. Lower the interest.

I don't know.

I'll think about it.

The coffee-flavored milk expires tomorrow. Drink.

Cool suit.

Is it a designer label?

Of course.

Are you going somewhere?

Yes.

Where? Somewhere good?

To a funeral. Why?

You're coming next week, right?

Next week? Why?

It's your birthday. We'll eat seaweed soup.

Gang-jae's birthday

Wow, how old am I?

You'll be 27.

You don't even know your own age?

What did you do when you were 27?

Well...

Your dad was still alive.

I sent you to school.

Shinyul Elementary. Grade 1 Class #3.

You were an adult.

So you'll come next week?

We'll see.

Father.

What should I do, Father?

Somehow, I will

be 27 next week.

We must first learn about the facts.

Let's go over Tripitaka Koreana, the easiest one.

Gang-jae 13-2, 67-gil, Itaewon-ro, Yongsan-gu, Seoul

Gang-jae Want to go get the funeral expenses together?

At 27, Mom was already sending me to school.

During the last days of being 26...

I'm thinking, 'What is money?'

And that's it.

[iQIYI Ver] jTBC E02 'Lost' "A Country of Rage" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥- Synced with Subcake Android

Eventually,

I started thinking whoever loves me the most

is the one who spends the most money on me.

These bad thoughts fill my mind.

Father.

If you had money,

you would've given it all to me.

My beloved

Father.

I think money is love.

Have I turned completely bad?

Have I failed to live like a decent human being?

Gang-jae!

Long time no see.

- How have you been? - Good.

Hello.

Catch you later.

Gang-jae!

Long time no see!

Where's Jong-hoon?

In the last room.

Despite that, I still

- Hey, Gang-jae! - What brings you here?

don't want to give up on anything.

Jeong A-ran's Notes on Life

- Can I shake your hand? - Oh, yes.

Thank you.

Jin-ah! Jin-ah!

Call Jin-ah for me.

Yes, Ma'am.

Jin-ah must be busy.

How have you been?

Writer Lee.

Why are you doing this?

I was questioned at the police station earlier.

The detective there told me

that you wanted to see me.

If you've come to beg for forgiveness,

you picked the wrong date.

You're not here for a favorable arrangement?

Favorable arrangement?

Why else would you be here?

I thought you had changed.

But you're the same.

You don't even know what situation you're in.

If you're not here to beg for forgiveness, leave.

I have no time for you.

Why?

If I don't leave,

are you going to hit me like last time?

- Jin-ah! - Yes, Ma'am.

I'm going to take five.

We'll take a break for five minutes.

Okay.

I'm sorry. We'll take a five-minute break.

Have you been well, Jin-ah?

Yes, Bu-jeong.

Everyone's doing well?

Yes.

I wanted to drop by to say hi, but I couldn't.

Time just flew by.

Bu-jeong. The thing is...

We're in the middle of an event.

I read the book.

You didn't change a word.

It was all as I had written.

Stop making me write pathetic letters to you.

Keep your promise.

Thanks for coming, Writer Lee.

Hello.

Oh! We've met before, right?

Oh, thank you for coming to see me again.

Hello, Ma'am.

"Jeong A-ran's Notes on Life" Intent of Plan

If we want to secure our existing readers

and expand to readers in their 20s and 30s,

we need a new marketing plan.

To do that, we need to research more

on Jeong A-ran's younger years...

before she got famous.

Hello.

What the hell are you doing?

What the hell?

Just quit everything.

Just quit!

What the hell are you doing?

Ma'am. Wait. Please calm down, Ma'am.

- Calm down? - Ma'am, please.

Let go! Let go!

The crappy book

that was published just the way I wrote it

without changing a damn word...

I read it well.

To my dismay,

you seem to be

doing so well.

But Ma'am...

If this gets out into the world,

who do you think

would be more damaged by it?

Hello, ladies. This way.

I went to tell you something, but forgot.

You're not the only one who can sue.

There's nothing I can't do right now.

Because I have nothing to lose.

What's with the smile?

It's been a long time.

Work a room before you go, Player.

I've retired a long time ago. Stop bugging me.

Retire, my foot.

My father died of liver cancer at the age of 42.

I resemble him

in that fatally attractive look

that exudes loneliness.

But I also have a bad liver, so I can't drink.

I've heard that a thousand times,

but every time, I wonder what he looked like.

You have to like to play to do this long, like you.

Play, my foot.

I'm dying here.

No matter how much I drink,

it's getting me nowhere.

So I've been working as a rider since last week.

Oh, my.

Delivery? What?

Everything.

Food.

Daily necessities.

Wow, how did Manager Lee of this famous

Gangnam male escort club become like this?

If I'm like this, then it's worse for the others.

They're all penniless.

They looked good to me.

It's all fake.

You know this.

What do I know?

I'm a normal member of society.

That was funny.

That bastard.

He kept saying he wanted to die.

He got what he wanted.

But we're the ones severely damaged.

How much did you lend him?

A lot, right?

Let it go.

I heard that Just also lent him money.

Your old friend who was good at studying.

Whatever.

I guess it was a lot.

I don't know. I can't remember.

Bastard.

You looked for him the most when he disappeared.

What do you mean you can't remember?

Why act so innocent?

I'm scared we'll lose our VIPs because of him.

He had no skills in shadowing someone

but he said he'd do it, greedy for money.

He took a big down payment,

but didn't hand in even one photo.

What a pain in the butt.

You're the one really good at shadowing.

Right?

Want to take the job?

Clean up the mess he left.

She's a plain housewife. find her dirty secret.

- If she doesn't have any, make one up. - Jong-hoon.

Huh?

I didn't come here to talk about this.

Then why are you here?

You said you came to talk about Jeong-woo.

Jeez.

You just scared the bejeesus out of me!

Is this talking about Jeong-woo to you?

Even though we met by chance,

we spent a long time together.

He died because life was so hard.

How can you talk trash about him?

That's not right.

He doesn't have a voice now.

How can you ask someone who just held a funeral

to clean up his mess?

Alright, dude!

I take back what I said.

Happy?

Huh?

Sit down, bastard!

If you've come to talk, talk.

How can I talk in this situation?

I'm going through hard times, too.

I'm upset that bastard died, too.

But

I'm also a victim here.

What should I do? Kill myself?

I'm leaving.

You came because you're lonely.

You belong with us. Not kids like Just.

Oh, and think about that job!

I'll make sure you get paid a lot! Jeez.

So hardheaded.

Someone's coming?

Gyeong-eun.

She just got off the subway.

You should've told me beforehand.

Hey.

She's also an alumnus. She can come if she wants.

No one needs your permission.

I don't feel comfortable.

We had to have a reunion twice a year for 6 years

because of you two. We're exhausted.

Let things go and relax now.

I'm uncomfortable.

Then

you should've married her no matter what.

You two were madly in love, but married separately.

Making us all uncomfortable.

You didn't marry your first love either.

My situation is different.

Gyeong-eun said she's okay with you being here.

That's not why I'm uncomfortable.

Didn't she say her husband was sick?

Yeah.

Cancer.

But last time, she said he got well after surgery.

Gyeong-eun

talked about you a lot when we met.

About me?

- Yeah. - Don't look excited.

She's living a good life.

Don't even think about it.

Are you drunk already?

Watch what you're saying.

You don't know anything.

You picking a fight?

Where are you going?

You're not going home, are you?

Hey, eat up.

The meat is all cooked.

This is delicious.

- Gyeong-eun! - Hey!

- Oh, hi! - Hi!

- It's been such a long time! - Hi!

You look so pretty!

Long time no see!

Gyeon-eun, have a drink.

- Let's have a drink. - Pour me a glass.

It's so good to see you.

How have you been?

Cheers!

Good to see you!

Eat up, Gyeong-eun.

Okay. Let's eat.

- You came straight from the office? - Yeah.

You haven't changed a bit.

You've gotten prettier.

You look so good.

Five-way Intersection Pharmacy

Huh?

You're closing up?

Long time no see.

What brings you here?

Did you not get my monthly rent?

I got it.

Then why...

Oh, are you not feeling well?

Give me that thing.

That thing?

That thing I drank the other time.

Oh, that!

Yeah, that.

You want to drink it now?

It's not good to drink it before going to bed.

Are you going somewhere?

My insides feel clogged up and I'm suffocating.

Where would I go?

Oh, you want digestive medicine.

I thought you were looking for an invigorating drink.

So I thought you were going somewhere nice.

Somewhere nice for an old person?

You mean heaven?

Oh, stop that.

You're still young.

Drink it slowly.

Ah, that's more like it.

What did you eat that caused you indigestion?

Did you have too much for dinner?

I haven't eaten anything.

But I've been stressed for a few days.

Right.

Stress is the worst.

Did something unsettling happen?

You're kind, smart,

prettier the more I look

and you speak so prettily.

Me?

If my brother heard you, he'd barf.

You're funny and easygoing.

Oh, stop it now.

I'm going to have indigestion.

You should've met my son when I asked you to.

Not that again.

It's been more than 10 years.

It's already been that long?

Yes.

And your son is already married.

That's right.

No matter how upset I am, I shouldn't say this.

I'll be punished.

Thank you

for locking up my mouth before I sinned again.

Want me to get more digestive medicine?

The syrup kind and pills?

You're so kind and thoughtful.

Oh, no, I'm not.

I'm only good-natured in the pharmacy.

At home, I'm like a fighting bull.

That's better than the crazy cow at home.

What?

I was talking to myself.

You're making me blush.

Dad!

Open up.

Should I call the ambulance? Huh?

Seriously...

Are you okay, Dad?

Wait.

Did you get an upset stomach after eating this?

No.

Where did you get this?

Did someone give it to you?

No.

I got a doggy bag for the leftovers at lunch.

You...

went there for lunch?

Huh?

Who did you meet for lunch?

I didn't meet anyone.

Who'd you meet? Jeong-su?

No.

I'm fine. Go home and fix dinner.

Jeong-su said he'll be late. He has a reunion.

Still, go home.

How can I leave when you're sick like this?

Dad.

If it's bad, let's go to the hospital.

No.

I'm not sick.

It's not that kind of thing.

Then what is it?

What made you look so miserable in one day?

When you're old, you always look miserable.

You met someone, right?

Huh?

Dad!

Oh, dear.

What is it, Dad? Huh?

Tell me.

I...

Yeah.

I thought hard all day.

But I know no one in the police.

I remembered someone from the Seosan family

worked at a local police station,

so I called everyone I knew.

But they're all dead and gone.

I...

I lived a poor life

and you're suffering for that.

Since the police summoned you,

you must've been so scared alone.

I didn't know that.

I thought you were acting strange.

But I thought it was just family matters.

I thought it was about the miscarriage.

I'm such a fool

that I don't know even when I see it.

I'm a knucklehead.

You poor little thing.

You must've suffered so much.

I'm not little.

Did you meet Jeong-su for lunch?

Did he tell you?

No. I said it wasn't Jeong-su.

But there's no one else but Jeong-su.

It's not important who I met.

I should know.

Even if I can't do anything, I should know.

Was...

there a big misunderstanding?

The only bad words you know are stupid and jerk.

So what could you have said to go to the police?

There was a misunderstanding, right?

Right.

What you said is right.

There was a misunderstanding.

When do you go to the police station?

I'm coming with you.

That's nonsense. I'm old enough to go alone.

What does age have to do with it?

Even when you're 60, you're still my child.

They said I don't have to go.

I don't have to go.

Huh?

Really?

It's all been taken care of.

Like you said, there was a misunderstanding.

A long time ago...

There was someone

I got to know while making a book.

I guess she held a grudge against me.

So we met up and got things sorted.

I don't have to go to the police station.

Really?

Yes.

Are you sure?

Yes.

You think I'm crazy?

It wasn't me.

Then who was it? Only you and I know about it.

I'm telling you, it wasn't me.

Then was it your mother?

How can you...

I'm going to spend the night at my dad's house.

Don't wait up.

Do what you want,

but know that it wasn't me.

Let's talk tomorrow. I'm hanging up now.

That sounded pretty serious.

Was that your wife?

It's nothing. Nothing serious.

I came out to call home, too.

How's your wife?

You want to know how she is?

Hmph...

Can't I even ask?

Why are you so serious?

They're getting ready to hit another place.

Let's go inside.

You shouldn't have come.

If I knew you were coming, I wouldn't have come.

I just

wanted to see you one more time.

I wondered

how you were after that time.

Why would you wonder about that?

Just...

I still think about you first

whenever things get tough for me.

You're really

sickening.

Why?

Because I'm more honest than you?

You're honest?

I'm more honest than you.

My husband...

...is dying.

Since that time,

a year has passed, I think.

He's been in a nursing hospital all year.

I did my best.

But I got punished in the end.

Thank you.

Jeong A-ran Can we talk over the phone?

Jeong-woo...

KRW 40 mil...

I'm selling clothes I don't wear

and a bunch of other stuff.

And this studio apartment

gets leased out quickly

so I'm thinking of putting it on the market.

You know the security deposit

for this place is KRW 15 mil.

I'll use KRW 5 mil. to move.

How long will you hold out?

Until you win the lottery?

Until you get a job.

When you get a job,

I'll clean up everything.

Winning the lottery will be faster.

She's still here.

Who?

Enjoy.

Min-jeong.

You watch your back with her.

She's the female version of me.

Oh.

I'm doomed.

It's the end of the world. The apocalypse.

Jeez.

How can this be?

There's no kimchi.

What do you mean she's the female version of you?

She'll do anything to survive.

This is insane.

So?

You'll go out to buy some kimchi?

If you're going out, turn off the stove.

Jeong A-ran Can we talk over the phone?

Jeong A-ran

Writer Lee?

Writer Lee?

Don't call me that.

What are you playing at?

What do you mean?

What do you want?

There's nothing I want.

For how...

For how long are you going to do this?

Do you know how hard it is for us to find and

remove all the things you write about me?

Us? Who's us?

Is it Writer Heo?

Hey!

How dare you!

Don't yell at me.

You shouldn't have brought up Writer Heo!

Is that all

you can say

to me in this situation?

As you said,

I have no human decency.

So don't expect any forgiveness or mercy from me!

Got that?

You're right.

I've gone crazy.

I'm in and out of the police station,

making my elderly dad lie sick in bed.

So how could I be in my right mind?

Just you wait.

You'll see everything that I know,

even the things you've forgotten,

spread out before the world.

Do you have a death wish?

How did you know?

I do want to die.

I'm

so embarrassed

that I want to die right now!

Because of you,

I lost my job.

I lost my child.

And I lost myself.

Yet you can't find it in you

to say sorry,

and make me like this again?

Alright.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Okay? Happy? Huh?

Ms. Jeong A-ran.

I learned a new word today at the police station.

Have you heard about "shield lift"?

If you haven't,

ask what it is to an idol star on your TV show.

I have a medical report of when you hit me.

I have tons of info on you the world doesn't know.

Starting today,

I'm shield lifting you.

Jeong A-ran

Why die?

Just don't pick up.

Lost

When we meet next time,

let's exchange it.

KakaoTalk.

You know the guy living at the end of the hall?

The playboy?

It seems he saw me for the first time yesterday

while I know what kind of instant noodles he eats.

Why'd you wear that?

We're going to get money for the funeral expenses.

What do you want?

Money?

It's impressive, seeing you work.

What do you want?

Don't you think it's a shame?

The girl trolling me...

You said you'll make her powerless.

Please come with us for now.

What do you want me to do?

Everything that's bad.
