Original subtitles

I would rather kill myself...

than disgrace Joseon Youth Liberation Alliance

and myself, by being captured by you.

I miss you.

Su-hyeon.

EUNGJINJEON HALL

Mr. Shin!

Mr. Shin, are you inside?

Mr. Shin!

Mr. Shin,

until when are you going to be like this?

Your father is very worried about you.

Something came for you.

I don't know what it is,

but it's from Mr. Seo Hwi-yeong, so I brought it over.

Then...

I'll just leave it here.

Hey, Yul.

Are you still alive?

Are you reading this letter?

As I was organizing my belongings

before leaving for Manchuria,

I decided to leave my three most precious belongings with you.

Do you remember the day we first saw this typewriter?

It's not a Japanese typewriter. We can type in Korean with this.

What do you say? Shall I get one for you?

This is all I need, buddy.

They say that the pen is mightier than the sword. It doubles as a weapon,

and it's certainly a very useful tool in changing this world.

To be honest,

I didn't really mean it when I said that all I needed was a fountain pen.

It was all a bluff.

When I got that typewriter from you as a gift,

I was so happy.

I received so many things from you.

I don't think I can repay you

for everything you've done for me in this life.

Right now,

as I'm heading towards a path that might lead to my death,

I'm sorry that this is all I can leave for you.

But I can't just give it to you for free.

I want to ask you a favor.

But I wonder if you'll be able to handle it.

Please complete this unfinished novel on my behalf,

with this typewriter

that you got for me.

CHICAGO TYPEWRITER

Please write our story on my behalf.

Please write...

that we had lived through these rough times.

Even when we were faced with a dark reality,

we all lived diligently,

and absorbed the pain.

We found hope in despair.

We found happiness in danger.

We all...

loved...

and fought to our utmost ability.

I'm leaving you the pocket watch to remind you

that you should always love Su-hyeon every single minute of the day.

Please protect her by her side,

so that she'll never have to be alone again.

Lastly, Yul,

I regret that I never told you...

how much I trusted and loved you.

So...

let's promise to stay alive and meet each other again.

No.

Let's meet...

even if we die.

If the gods ask me

if I have lived a happy life,

this is what I'll say.

I'll say I was happy to have met all of you.

If the gods

console me for having gone through so much,

and pat me on the shoulders

and tell me that I lived a good life,

I'll ask them for a favor.

I'll ask them...

to allow me...

to be with you both, even in my next life.

I hit someone.

I killed someone.

Mr. Baek ordered her to kidnap me?

But why did Mr. Han get hurt?

I'm not sure,

but they got into a fight.

Then Mr. Han fell from the rooftop.

I momentarily possessed his body, so I prevented him from falling.

But I'm sure his body still took the shock.

Please explain what happened to the doctor.

All right.

Thank you for letting me know.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL CENTER

What do you mean he fell off a building?

I'll explain everything in detail later.

Please ask the doctor to check for fractures, brain hemorrhage, and...

What else is there? Anyway, please ask him

to check for any kind of symptoms that may occur from falling from a high building--

Mr. Han.

-Se-ju. -Mr. Han!

What happened? Are you dead?

Are you a ghost? Is that what you are?

I'm sorry,

but I'm not a ghost.

But I did get some help from one.

He possessed my body...

the moment I fell from the rooftop.

Ms. Kang, please call a psychiatrist.

Hello? I'd like to book an appointment with a psychiatrist. Yes.

PASSPORT

How... How did you...

You look like you've seen a ghost.

Why?

Are you scared to see me well and alive, even after you hit me

with your car?

You are...

the guy who spied on me

when I was at Se-ju's place,

aren't you?

Who are you?

What on earth are you?

That's a wrong question.

You should ask if Mr. Han, the guy you pushed, is doing okay.

That's the only right thing to do.

What are you talking about?

I didn't push him.

He... He missed his footing.

It was just an accident.

Even so, you still should've checked if he was alive or not.

But you did nothing.

All you did was run away.

That's...

I was too shocked.

I was scared that people would misunderstand the situation.

I'm telling the truth. I wasn't trying to run away on purpose.

Was it also an accident that you hit me with your car?

In order to get away with your crime,

you tried to get rid of me because I'm the witness.

That makes you responsible for killing two people.

Do you have evidence?

You haven't changed at all.

You're just like how you used to be in the past.

You commit a crime.

Then you commit another crime to cover up for that crime.

You make excuses instead of apologizing. You forget instead of regretting!

You still don't know how to repent for your sins.

How can you call yourself a citizen of Joseon?

Mr. Baek Tae-min.

You are under arrest for instigating Ms. Jeon Seol's abduction.

Se-ju, you need to get hospitalized.

I don't have any fractures, and my brain is fine.

All I have is a small wound on my head. Why would I get admitted and eat there?

I'm not sending you to hospital for food. I'm saying this because I'm worried.

Gosh, Ji-seok.

Ever since I got you that expensive watch,

you've been overly protective.

Gosh, what do you take me for?

Seol, are you sure about what happened?

How can he be this fine

when he fell from the rooftop of a building?

What's wrong, Seol? What happened?

Are you all right?

Yes.

I was too glad to see you unhurt, so my legs gave in.

Goodness.

Ji-seok,

let's get her admitted to hospital immediately.

Who's over-protecting whom right now?

Hurry up!

Goodness. This is so unnecessary.

Thanks to you, I'm getting it too.

I'm sorry.

You almost died because of me again.

I told you that's not true.

Anyway, this time Jin-o saved your life

instead of me.

I know.

If it weren't for that old man, I would've been dead.

But where is this heartless ghost hiding?

Did you look for me?

Where have you been?

I had some business to finish.

Mr. Han, are you all right?

Of course.

How about you?

You were flickering the other day. Are you all right?

What do you mean he was flickering?

Does he operate on a battery or something?

You didn't know?

There are 24 alkaline batteries in his back.

Really?

What did you just say?

You said you're losing spiritual power.

Are you losing your hearing ability, too?

Or...

are you acting like an old man because I've been calling you one?

Is it true?

Did you really remember your past life as you were falling?

Very clearly.

From Joseon Youth Liberation Alliance's actions on the day of the revolt,

to the moment their leader, Seo Hwi-yeong, dies.

Everything passed through my mind like a film.

So?

Do you want to hear it?

Is there a need to specify

whose trap killed Seo Hwi-yeong?

What is this?

Are you suggesting that you want to sleep with me?

Goodness, aren't you very creative?

Should I just leave?

Why are you getting angry?

It's as if I actually read your mind.

What is it?

I have a question.

What do you want to know?

Who do you think is the person I remember from my past life?

I definitely shot him.

And whenever I think about that moment,

I feel so sad, as if my heart is breaking.

Do you have any idea?

Don't try too hard to remember.

Just let it go if you can't remember it.

You only remember your great moments.

Do you want me to tell you something even greater?

If you get even greater than now, my heart won't be able to handle it.

Hwi-yeong...

prayed to the gods just before he died.

He prayed,

and asked to be...

with Ryu Su-hyeon and Shin Yul even in his next life.

The gods answered his prayer.

The old man is here,

and you are here...

right before my eyes.

That's why...

I will do something for our country right now.

Why don't you just set up a provisional government?

How can you call yourself a citizen of Joseon?

I wasn't caught.

I caught someone.

Does that mean the person who killed me...

is Heo Yeong-min?

Why was I...

By whom was I killed?

Tell me the truth.

It wasn't you, was it?

You are such a good kid.

How can you instigate a kidnapping?

That's not possible.

She's setting you up, isn't she?

How can they arrest you based on what the murderer's sister said?

This is just unbelievable.

Darling, hang in there for a short while. Your uncle is friends

with the Attorney General--

Don't get him involved in this.

Do you want to be even more humiliated?

They got the recording of him instigating a kidnapping.

Whose side are you on right now?

Are you their attorney?

I'm sure it's been fabricated.

Tell them to send it for a voice analysis!

Please be quiet.

Wait.

That girl named Jeon Seol.

She's the girl who got into a love scandal with Se-ju, right?

So that's it.

They must've plotted this together.

I asked you to please be quiet.

It's very strange that she was suddenly on the news.

Something smells fishy.

I should catch her right away and torture her.

Didn't you hear me? I told you to be quiet!

Didn't I?

Hey.

Tae-min.

When are you going to stop talking?

Tell me.

I can't breathe because of you. You're killing me.

How...

How can you...

do this to me?

How...

Hey.

Honey, don't provoke him any further.

Go outside and calm down.

Hurry up.

Tae-min.

Why did you do it?

What made you do such a thing?

Do you know how serious a crime that is?

Dad.

Yes.

I...

hit a person.

Tae-min.

But...

I don't think it was a person.

I was sure he was dead,

but he's moving around freely.

Se... Se-ju.

Please let me meet Se-ju.

Se-ju must know about him.

He must know...

that man's real identity.

What?

Jo Sang-mi did that?

That's right.

She intentionally got a part-time job at Riccardo.

Her motive was to approach Seol.

Nobody is to be trusted in this world.

That's why I didn't want to hire her. I didn't like her vibe.

Seol even helped her get the job without even knowing.

Poor Seol.

Wait.

Show me my face with the camera.

SHOW ME MY FACE WITH THE CAMERA

-Is that... -What is it?

-Do you know her? -Quiet.

What's wrong?

What?

Send the picture I just took to Seol via text message.

SEND THE PICTURE I JUST TOOK TO SEOL VIA TEXT MESSAGE

Who is she?

Se-ju!

Did you sleep well?

Yes.

By the way, why did I sleep here?

Maybe you didn't want to leave.

By the way,

when did you sneak up to the bed?

You are the one who stopped me. You wanted to talk all night.

Did I?

"Did I"?

You told me to sleep on the bed and that you were going to sleep on the sofa.

When did you crawl up to the bed?

Can't you talk nicer?

What do you mean I "crawled up to" the bed?

-Excuse me. -Goodness.

I fell right there.

By the way,

do you guys need to get couple's counseling?

What are you doing?

Mr. Han, something urgent came up. I have to go.

Okay. Go.

She's just embarrassed, isn't she?

Goodness. You're the man.

Bearing the truth isn't as easy as it sounds.

It's just the truth from the past.

I will be the one bearing it, anyway.

You just have to tell me what you know and what you remember.

What exactly...

What exactly do you know, Seol?

I know that...

you were a secret agent.

That there was a revolution,

and that Heo Yeong-min caught me there.

Of course, it's not all from my memories.

It includes what Mr. Han remembers.

Can't you stop there?

Why would you dig up the past?

Mom.

Your daughter is not Ryu Su-hyeon. Your daughter is me, Jeon Seol.

Su-hyeon would not have forgiven her mom for being a secret agent.

But it's different for me.

I couldn't forgive you

because you left your little daughter behind.

So please...

tell me.

Tell me and free yourself

from the memories of your past life, okay?

Hey.

Do you have problems that I don't know about?

It's not that.

You got to remember your last moment.

I'm frustrated about why I still can't remember

the details of my death.

Do you...

have to know about it?

Can't you arrive at the blissful state if you don't?

Do you...

know about something?

What would I know?

You and I both were fighters.

So your death must be in line with that. Don't you think?

You said you remembered me pretending

to replace Hwi-yeong and becoming the leader, right?

Is that...

really all you remember?

What if it's not?

I don't think that's the case.

You clearly know something.

Am I right?

Are you sure you can handle...

whatever I tell you?

Actually,

in order to protect Hwi-yeong

and rescue Su-hyeon,

Shin Yul walked into the enemy's den.

Also, what I'm about to say

is not from Hwi-yeong's memory.

It's just my inference.

All right.

Please go on.

Shin Yul could withstand any pain.

But he couldn't win against Heo Yeong-min,

who held Su-hyeon's life in his hands.

Are you suggesting that I exposed you...

No.

Did I expose Seo Hwi-yeong?

-I told you. It's just my inference-- -It's impossible.

There's no way I would've cornered him into a deadly situation.

Why on earth did you make such--

On the day we were supposed to leave for Manchuria,

our hideout was attacked.

Madam Sophia.

Madam Sophia could've exposed it.

No.

Neither Madam Sophia nor even Su-hyeon

knew about the location of the hideout.

The only other person who knew it...

was the lead member of the alliance,

Shin Yul.

I'll repeat it again.

This...

is only my inference.

Then the person who killed me...

The person who killed me was...

It was me.

The person who killed Shin Yul...

was me.

Thanks to Mom, I remembered it, too.

Ryu Su-hyeon, come out. You're free to go.

There are clothes and some money in that bag.

Mr. Shin said you should forget everything that happened,

go somewhere far, do something you love,

and take care of your mind and health.

You are such a spiteful girl.

Can't you at least thank him?

Do you know what Mr. Shin went through to get you out?

Is it here or the port? Tell me quickly.

CARPE DIEM

CARPE DIEM

SEO HWI-YEONG, THE LEADER OF JOSEON YOUTH LIBERATION ALLIANCE, KILLS HIMSELF

Do you know what this gun's nickname is?

No, I don't.

What is it?

They say that the sound of its gunshot is similar to a typewriter,

so it got the nickname "Chicago Typewriter."

Please complete this unfinished novel on my behalf,

with this typewriter

that you got for me.

Carpe Diem, which used to be the hideout of Joseon Youth Liberation Alliance,

now belongs to the police of the Empire of Japan.

Ladies and gentlemen who have come here

despite the difficult situation, thank you very much

for coming all the way here.

Furthermore,

I'm particularly grateful

to Mr. Kamaguchi, who gave me this rare opportunity,

despite the fact that I am a citizen of Joseon.

Today...

is the best day of my life.

I hope you all have a wonderful evening.

In that respect,

let's make a toast.

Cheers to the continued success of the Empire of Japan!

-Cheers! -Cheers!

Guns are not...

the type of item that suits women.

Why don't you put it down, Anastasia?

You put it down, you scum.

It will be too late to regret, once your head is smashed.

Fine.

If you stop right now,

your life will be spared.

If you want, you can...

I'd rather bite my tongue and kill myself,

than beg you for my life.

I'm sorry.

I was reminded of someone just now.

Was it Seo Hwi-yeong?

He was bluffing even at the moment

he shot himself to death.

You're exactly like him.

In the name of Joseon Youth Liberation Alliance,

I hereby remove the enemy's hunting dog.

What did you just say?

It seems like someone is taking revenge for Joseon Youth Liberation Alliance.

Someone ruthlessly shot the high officials

gathered in Carpe Diem yesterday.

Thanks to that person,

Heo Yeong-min, who interrogated you

was killed on the spot.

The Japanese police are now

combing the whole of Gyeongseong like crazy.

But this person is so elusive,

that nobody has caught him or her yet.

CARPE DIEM

Come here, Su-hyeon.

I'll be waiting for you here.

Have you heard?

There's an assassin who's taking revenge

for Joseon Youth Liberation Alliance.

Yes, I heard about it.

I heard this person is as fast as a flash of lightning.

Fighters aren't supposed to fall in love, right?

Didn't you know there was another code of conduct?

Those who betray their comrades...

will be removed.

I was also deceived.

I was...

stupid to believe that they'd release the death row inmates.

My son...

was killed in the end.

I wish...

we can be better friends in the next life.

Please. Su-hyeon.

In the name of Joseon Youth Liberation Alliance,

I hereby remove the secret agent who betrayed her comrades.

You came.

I've been waiting for you.

Hwi-yeong left a present for us.

I thought it would be better

that you take the pocket watch.

Why did you do it?

Now that you have the pocket watch,

-let's end this quickly. -Why did you do it? Why?

Because...

I couldn't bear to see you being killed...

in front of my eyes.

What am I?

What am I for you to have done that?

You should have let me die!

You shouldn't have exposed him, no matter what happened to me!

Ryu Su-hyeon!

Carry out your duty.

The alliance's codes of conduct...

are equal to Boss' orders.

In the name of...

Joseon Youth Liberation Alliance...

Your posture is unstable.

You shouldn't be afraid of the recoil.

If you are, your body will move back or your arm will droop down.

Then you lose stability and control.

Don't forget.

Don't be afraid of the recoil and don't step back.

You must keep your eyes on your target.

If a sniper is hesitant or reluctant in front of his or her target,

the sniper will be dead.

Go ahead.

Should I do it myself?

Good.

Those eyes are back.

Do you have...

any last words?

Please kill me with your own hands.

That will make me feel better.

In the name of Joseon Youth Liberation Alliance,

I hereby remove...

the traitor.

Hey, Hwi-yeong.

I'm sorry.

I made Su-hyeon cry.

I'm sorry I couldn't keep the promise I said I would keep

in this life.

I'm also sorry I couldn't finish the novel.

If...

there's such a thing a next life,

I will...

keep my word then.

I will come to you,

to make...

you two happy.

You're really back.

I told you I would come.

I...

killed Yul.

He was like my brother,

my father,

my friend,

and my comrade.

But I killed him.

I was ungrateful towards his kindness and generosity.

And I...

I...

I killed both of you.

Why do you think that?

You know it's not true.

Are you leaving?

Whenever I cry, you always just wipe away my tear and leave.

Are you leaving?

I should.

You...

should live your life well.

Let me come with you.

No, you can't.

You should stay alive,

and see our liberated nation.

I want to,

but I'm too exhausted.

I feel...

sleepy.

What is that?

I don't know.

It looks pretty old.

It feels exotic.

-Should I give it to my daughter? -Go ahead.

Seo Hwi-yeong!

Does that mean...

I betrayed you...

and let you be killed?

Hey, come to your senses.

I'm not Hwi-yeong. I'm Se-ju.

Did I...

make you

kill me?

I'm sorry.

I was the one...

who killed you two, after all.

-Mr. Yu! -Jin-o!

Jin-o!

Jin-o!

I'm sorry for calling you here when it's raining.

I didn't know whom to call when a ghost is sick.

I couldn't call a doctor.

Gosh.

Where is he?

So...

are you saying he's lying down here?

Yes.

What do you think? How does he look?

Tell me the symptoms he has.

He suddenly got cracks all over his body and passed out

after some lights leaked from his body.

Did something happen to cause that?

What?

Well...

He did get an emotional shock.

He doesn't have long left until he perishes.

"Perish"?

What does that mean exactly?

It literally means...

that his soul will completely perish.

He will return to nothing.

It's different from reaching a blissful state. He won't have a next life.

Why did this suddenly happen?

I kept telling him that he should save his energy.

He used too much energy.

On top of that, he received an emotional shock.

That worsened the cracks.

Is there any way to keep him from perishing?

We could try to put his energy back together,

but it'll be hard to restore him fully because he already has cracks.

Then...

Why don't you just grant him his wishes before he leaves?

Mr. Han.

Would you like to grab some beer?

Seol is seeing Ms. Wang off.

Why didn't you tell me?

You didn't tell me that I was a traitor, either.

How can you be smiling?

Things aren't all bad, actually.

I finally learned why I was sealed in the typewriter.

I mean,

why I sealed myself, to be precise.

I finally found out.

Why is that?

Tell me.

I did it to apologize

to you two.

And...

to keep the promise I made with Hwi-yeong.

What promise?

The promise to give up on Seol in my next life.

Do you remember that?

It seems like I kept my word successfully

with the help of Gyun Woo and our deal.

I'm sad about it,

but I will give you the chance

to date Seol in this life.

-But in the next life... -You want me to give up?

No.

In the next life,

I'd like to date another girl.

My gosh.

Hwi-yeong...

had trust in Yul until the very last moment.

He knew Yul told on them,

but he never blamed him. He had every confidence in him.

Seo Hwi-yeong...

already forgave you.

And Han Se-ju...

has no reason to forgive Yu Jin-o.

Because you're not Shin Yul.

You're Yu Jin-o.

So stop blaming yourself,

and let's think about how you can avoid perishing.

Can I ask you a favor?

What is it?

I'd like to borrow your writing room for a while.

I promised Hwi-yeong that I'd finish the novel.

I want to keep that promise.

Thank you.

I could finish the novel, thanks to you.

Are you going to write it?

I promised Hwi-yeong.

I'm sorry...

for making things tough for you.

Su-hyeon.

It's not your fault.

You just did...

what you were supposed to do.

So...

please don't feel guilty anymore.

Move on,

and live in the present.

Then...

I want you to do the same, Yul.

You betrayed us...

to save me.

Su-hyeon knew it, too.

Even at the very moment she pulled the trigger,

she was very sorry,

and grateful to you.

While crossing the river of oblivion,

she couldn't stop...

looking back multiple times.

To me, Yul was...

a teacher I respected,

a comrade I could rely on,

and a kind brother.

Thanks to him, my life wasn't lonely.

I could live an awesome life as a sniper.

He adored me,

and told me I was pretty.

It was more than I deserved.

Thank you.

Hello.

It's me.

Yes.

I'm listening.

I'm sorry to ask you this,

but could you please meet Tae-min?

He keeps saying...

some strange things.

You're here.

I'm glad you look well.

You're okay, right?

Of course, you're glad.

If something bad had happened to me, it would've been worse for you.

So what did you want to talk about?

Who is...

that guy?

Who are you talking about?

The guy who was hit by my car.

The guy who was in your workroom.

-What are you talking about? -Who is he?

He's not a human being, right?

He keeps appearing in my dream

and tells me to admit it's my fault. But I haven't done anything wrong.

Tae-min.

What? Why?

Is it so difficult to admit that you did something wrong?

Is it so difficult...

to say you're sorry?

Someone waited for 80 years to make an apology.

Someone even risked his life...

to keep his word.

Life isn't only about the good days.

If you did something wrong,

admit it,

and correct it.

It might be painful from time to time,

but you should fight it.

That's life.

I want you to atone for what you did...

for the rest of your life,

so that you can make a fresh start.

Jin-o, I'm home.

I said I'm home.

Are you in there?

Where are you?

Welcome home.

Would you like to drink with me?

I just finished writing.

I guess this is why people write.

You finally kept the promise you made with Hwi-yeong.

Yes.

It took...

exactly 83 years.

Then...

it's time to keep the promise you made with me.

Pardon? A promise?

What promise?

CO-WRITING CONTRACT

It will take at least 100 years

to comply with everything in this contract.

I'll be generous with you.

You can comply with just one clause.

That's really generous of you.

Among the countless number of clauses,

which one is it?

Co-writing Contract Article One, Clause One.

Until the novel is finished, Han Se-ju and Yu Jin-o...

must live...

together.

Seo Hwi-yeong and Shin Yul's novel might be finished,

but our novel,

Han Se-ju and Yu Jin-o's novel,

is yet to be finished.

So if you just disappear without giving me any notice,

I will kill--

No.

I will reincarnate you.

How will you revive me?

Through my novel.

I'm thinking of...

writing that novel.

The sound of a period being placed at the end of a sentence is always good to hear.

Did you finish writing?

Yes.

Hey.

This almost killed me.

May I have a look?

Before you do,

promise me one thing.

Are you sure it's just one thing?

You said you sealed yourself

inside the typewriter,

to keep your word and to ask for forgiveness, right?

Why are you suddenly bringing that up?

I'm...

thinking of keeping you sealed in my novel.

-Pardon? -I heard that when you perish,

you will become nothing.

I heard you won't even get a chance of reincarnation.

If I keep you sealed in my novel before you perish,

at least you won't disappear.

You will at least have a chance of reincarnation.

So promise me.

Promise me that you will wait inside my novel

until the cracks in your body go away,

to come back and thank me.

Promise me you'll come back to keep your promise...

that we will meet again.

It seems like it's time to change the battery.

Follow me. I want to take you somewhere.

Thank you.

For what?

What Hwi-yeong wanted to do the most in our liberated country

was fishing.

Thanks to you, one of my wishes came true.

Do you want to make a bet?

What bet?

Let's see if Jin-o will come and find us after being reincarnated.

The words of the person who owns the rod that moves first will be true.

I'm in.

"I'm in"?

Are you guys betting on my fate?

I love making bets.

Let me start first.

Let's see.

He might be reincarnated.

I wish he is reincarnated.

Come on. That's too mean.

How can you be so unsure about it?

I say I will definitely be reincarnated.

I'm also thankful.

I'm saying that to Jin-o, not Yul.

What are you thankful for?

If you didn't come into my life,

I might not have been able to write a single sentence until now.

If you hadn't invited Seol into my house,

I might have been...

living a life where Seol isn't in it.

I think I should change the bait.

It doesn't seem to work.

If you hadn't come to find me,

I might have lived with a wall around myself.

Like a ghost who roams around,

even though I'm alive.

So don't you dare disappear without...

Hey, Jin-o.

Are you flickering again?

If you're there, give me a sign.

Jin-o.

I asked you to give me a sign.

I'll kill you if you're messing with me right now.

I told you I'll kill you if you disappear without any notice.

Show yourself! Right now!

It's moving.

He was...

my muse.

He was also a ghost.

He was my friend,

who came to save me...

from 80 years ago.

It's a small miracle that an old typewriter brought to me.

This special experience...

greatly encouraged me...

to live the present.

Lastly,

I dedicate this book...

to my friend, Yu Jin-o.

Thank you.

CHICAGO TYPEWRITER, HAN SE-JU'S FIRST ROMANCE NOVEL

You said you had a book signing event. Are you allowed to be here?

I've done everything I could do.

It wasn't even planned anyway.

Still, your fans might feel quite betrayed.

You don't like being with me alone?

Why do you keep talking about that when I'm next to you?

I feel guilty

that I'm the only one who's happy.

I wonder who is missing me this much.

They say someone is thinking about you if only one of your shoelaces become untied.

There is someone who misses you.

There's a person

who has been waiting for you for almost 100 years.

There's a person who can't leave you

because they're tied to you by fate.

Who is it?

Is it a mysterious creature?

What do you think...

happened to Jin-o?

I just wish he's safely sealed in my novel.

Do you think...

he's happy there?

How about if we ask that mighty coin of yours?

If it's heads, he's safely in there.

If it's tails...

he failed.

CHICAGO TYPEWRITER

All right.

No.

I'll never let you read it.

I know it's finished. Why do you not want to show me?

I want to know how it ends.

If you're curious, buy the book later.

You're so petty.

I said no.

I'll never let you read it.

Hey, friend.

What took you so long?

Yul.

Where have you been?

I had a dream.

It sounds like you took a long nap.

Our country will never be liberated

with such a lazy independence fighter.

Don't worry.

Our country will be liberated.

I'm sure of it.

It looks like you had a good dream.

What was it about?

It was a dream about you living happily in our liberated country.

It was for a short while,

but I was with you guys in the dream.

And I hope that...

we can be together again somewhere in the future.

-It's rolling. -We'll go straight in. Cue.

I'd like to announce... I'm sorry.

-It's rolling. -Let's try again. Cue.

I'd like to announce...

We will assassinate those who are in the way...

of our country's independence.

We will assassinate those who are in the way...

of our country's independence.

Just pretend to be shooting.

I was so surprised.

There was fire on Hwi-yeong's face.

My goodness.

I didn't expect that at all.

Cut.

Over there! Follow them!

Why are you standing around? Do you want to die?

Cut. Okay.

Cut.
