Original subtitles

The Assemblyman is running late. He'll be here in 20 minutes.

Kang Chul is trying to harass you even in his death.

He wrote something strange in his suicide note.

What did he write?

Don't worry about it too much.

Someone at death's door could write anything.

I'LL MAKE YOU THE NEXT PRESIDENT.

-They had a phone call? -Pardon?

Han Cheol-ho and the killer talked over the phone.

Yes.

I think we can make something out of this.

-Who? -Han Sang-hun.

He wrote that we should investigate a phone call

between that killer and you.

He's making it seem like you colluded with him.

He's a cunning one.

He didn't want to die alone.

Hey.

Can you send me

a copy of Kang Chul's suicide note?

Murder without context.

A mass shooting without a purpose.

A fake recording.

That's how I'll die.

Without a reason. In vain.

Investigate the phone call between the killer and Han Cheol-ho.

Those two are connected. I'm sure of it,

although I don't exactly know how.

THOSE TWO ARE CONNECTED. I'M SURE OF IT.

Please expose their relationship.

I'm innocent.

It's ridiculous, isn't it?

Even so, we need to confirm what he wrote,

so they'll investigate the call.

I just wanted to give you a heads up.

RECORDING

That's right. It's me.

Do you know what will happen to you if I get caught?

I do. You will...

kill me.

I'll make you the next President.

-What? -I'll help you.

I know a lot of things about Chul.

He'll become a murderer.

And the killer behind his father's death will be him too.

You're insane.

What nonsense are you...

I'll make it happen for you right now.

Hey, you. Why did you call me?

Don't you know?

If you become President, it will all be thanks to me.

You can pay me back later.

We're in this together now.

DO YOU WANT TO DELETE THIS FILE? YES

NO FILES

Do you think Han Cheol-ho will try to kill him for that?

His character is a simple-minded antagonist.

That's how your father made him.

I'm sure he'll do it as long as there are no variables.

I heard Kang Chul is dead.

-Did he really die? -What is it to you?

You should worry about your own life.

-I'm asking you if he's dead. -Don't look at me like that.

Yes. He's dead. So what?

-Moron. -What?

How are the cops so stupid?

-What did you say? -Go get Han Cheol-ho.

-What? -Congressman Han Cheol-ho.

-Call him. Tell him I want to see him. -What?

Tell him not to do anything stupid.

If he's trying to get rid of me, I'll kill him first.

I'll put a bullet through his brain, so he better watch out!

Tell him to go find Kang Chul. That bastard's not dead.

Understand?

He's a lunatic. Fine.

Sorry. There was traffic.

I already started.

Do you know Han Sang-hun?

He's the suspect that was arrested for the mass shooting.

-What about him? -He's looking for you.

-He's asking to see you. -Pardon?

You've never met him, have you?

-How would I know him? -That's what I mean.

Maybe someone's setting you up.

Now that the troublemaker Kang Chul is dead,

this punk is stirring up trouble.

Gosh.

I'm sorry I'm late.

Hi, come on in.

-The traffic was bad, wasn't it? -It was.

He got me good.

I thought he was just a lunatic, but I was wrong.

A trap?

Why?

How did Kang Chul get the idea to write that in his suicide note?

I'll get rid of it.

I'll get rid of it at the source.

Hello?

How have you been?

What are your boys doing these days?

I have a job for you.

I HAVE A JOB FOR YOU.

She always calls when I'm about to eat.

Hello? Hi, Yeon-joo.

You just read the webtoon? It was posted a while ago.

I had a surgery so I just saw it.

I see. The story's moving forward well.

-How's my dad? -He's still the same.

I just checked a minute ago.

Check again.

I checked ten minutes ago.

Fine.

He's still the same.

Is the killer still alive?

It looks like Han Cheol-ho is hiring men for the job.

The time there and here are different, so I have no idea what's going on.

But I think

it's almost time.

-What about him? -Who?

Oh, Chul? He went out.

-Where? -I don't know.

He doesn't sit still for a minute.

Keep checking on my dad for me. I'm done here, so I'll be right over.

-Hello? -What are you doing?

I just got off work.

Where are you? I heard you went out.

Come out. I'll buy you coffee.

Are you nearby?

Okay. I'm leaving now.

What do you want to drink?

Iced Americano.

Americano? Okay.

Do I look okay?

You look absolutely gorgeous.

Have a nice day.

See you tomorrow.

Is she seeing someone?

Hope makes me imagine again.

Dad.

Dad.

When Dad safely returns,

the real last chapter of W begins.

WHAT ARE YOUR BOYS DOING THESE DAYS?

Who are Han Cheol-ho's underlings?

The gang is called Baekcheong.

Han Cheol-ho used to look out for them when he was a prosecutor.

This is great!

Where should we go after the job?

Let's go somewhere nice.

Jang Won-hwi is their leader.

He appeared in several other chapters.

This music is great! Step on it!

You have their personal information, right?

Yes. I'll get it.

These are Han Cheol-ho's gang members.

Seo Do-yoon will pass the information he got from Chul

to a broadcasting station.

GANGDONG POLICE WILL ELIMINATE ALL SOCIAL EVILS!

Cheol-ho goes to prison like he was supposed to,

for his role in Chul's and Han Sang-hun's death.

KANG CHUL

The people who once loathed Chul

starts missing him again.

He dies but regains his fame as the main character

and escapes the crisis of ceasing to exist.

THE END

As Chul came back to me,

W ended with a happy ending.

When the webtoon ends,

he is freed from his character profile.

He is no longer the main character of a cartoon

and does not have the main character's fate.

He's inside.

He is simply a special person who can travel between two worlds.

Dad.

We're here.

How are you feeling?

He will live here now. There's no problem.

May I join you? I haven't eaten yet.

Have a seat.

I'll get the rice.

Stop eating so loudly!

You're chewing so loud.

There is no way Dad will accept the situation,

but he will accept our relationship one day.

Fine, let's forget it. Forget it.

What can I do now? It already happened.

He's a human being. I didn't draw him.

What are you doing?

Do you want to play Go? I heard you like it.

Who's winning?

Dad, did you lose again?

Let's play one more time so that you can beat your friends.

It will be hard to find another player like me.

Unless you learn from a professional.

I have to wait patiently

and take it slow.

Tell him to sit.

Have a seat.

Have a seat. Come, have a seat.

Do you want coffee?

Yes, thank you.

Oh, my. Aren't you handsome?

You're cute.

How old are you?

I'm 30.

That's perfect.

You look like you came out of a comic book.

What's so great about him?

Mom will be difficult,

but Auntie will help me...

You're tall, too.

-...since she only cares about looks. -You are so handsome.

Have you already paid for this?

I was going to pay.

I should at least buy the coffee.

I'm making my wife work alone.

I guess you have a conscience.

I have a conscience. I just don't have money.

Anyway, why are you here? I was going to go home.

I have to go somewhere after this.

Where?

I'm curious about what's happening.

In the webtoon?

I want to know how things are going, and I have to meet Do-yoon too.

I need to settle the inheritance issue.

What will you do about it?

I'm going to establish a foundation

that supports crime investigations.

Do-yoon will run it.

I can't bring the money here anyway.

I see.

Are you disappointed?

What? No.

You seem very disappointed.

No, not at all. Why are you saying that?

Maybe you liked me for my money.

Should I bring some gold bars?

Draw me a few things, and your part will be done.

-What's this? -It's a voice recording.

I'll put it in Han Cheol-ho's office to be found as evidence

so that we can put him in jail.

We should get your father back some time tonight.

Are you sure?

If there are no variables.

What variables?

I just hope there won't be any. Don't worry too much.

Hey, Yeon-joo!

I'm glad I found you here.

I told you about him. Mad Dog.

-I have something to tell you. -Pardon?

I'm going to survive.

I was a fan of W before, but as of today, I'm a hater.

-What? -You probably know

how much I hoped for Mr. Oh's beautiful ending.

But you saw it, right? Where the story's heading?

Oh Yeon-joo again! The character I'm tired of appeared again.

So I've come to a conclusion.

Kang Chul is a bigger moron than Yeon-joo.

And the bigger moron than Chul

is me, who's reading that moronic webtoon!

Therefore,

I've dumped it.

W is no longer a masterpiece. It's garbage!

What?

Are you offended that I insulted your father? I don't care.

Tell your father about my rage.

On behalf of the readers,

I can't hide my anger and disappointment.

Tell him I'll write 100 nasty comments.

Tell him to brace himself for bad ratings.

You'll probably never see such a fair hater.

My user ID is Professor Park.

Tell him that the hater "Professor Park" is me.

Is it that ridiculous? Enough to become a hater?

Pardon?

Is Kang Chul that moronic?

Isn't Yeon-joo a decent woman?

Which Yeon-joo do you mean?

Do you mean Yeon-joo here or in the comic?

I don't know any Yeon-joo who is decent.

You don't like this one either?

I can't decide which one is a bigger mess.

Is she that bad?

Especially this Yeon-joo here.

She's both horrible and disgusting.

She's horribly disgusting.

-Professor? -Yes?

Aren't you going to order? Shall I buy you some coffee?

-Let's go. -Wait.

Who are you to talk to me about...

Hello, I'm Yeon-joo's friend.

Oh, I see.

Well, pardon me.

-I was upset, so please understand. -What would you like?

You like iced latte, right?

What's wrong now?

Haven't we met before?

-We have? -Haven't we?

I've never met you before.

Why do you look so familiar?

Do you look like someone?

Kang Chul?

Kang Chul?

That's right. You look like him.

Kang... That's right.

-You look exactly like him. -What are you doing?

-A lot of people say that. -Right?

Goodness, how is this possible?

You look exactly like him!

-Professor, let's go order-- -Seriously,

you would be perfect for the movie based on the webtoon.

Talk about a perfect match! Gosh!

-Do you think so? -Of course.

Why don't you audition? What do you do?

-I'll give you my business card. -Okay.

Let's see. CEO. Kang Chul...

Kang Chul?

A lot of people say that I look like him, so I made it for fun.

Goodness, wait a minute.

You're such a funny man.

You're so funny.

It's nice to meet you, Mr. Kang.

-Professor, I really have to get going. -Okay.

Where did you meet someone so funny?

It's so great to meet you. We should really talk.

-Wait. We should-- -Professor!

-Okay. -Iced latte.

-Let's go for a drink sometime. -Come on.

We wasted our 20 minutes with him.

I don't have to take you home, right? Draw as soon as you get home.

Okay.

You won't be in danger, right?

You know I am free to do whatever I want.

Don't worry about me.

Please be careful.

I'll call you.

Is there a reference for the hotel I lived in as well?

Yes, here it is.

It's the Miracle Hotel. I only changed the name.

What's the address?

I'm not sure.

Where are you?

-I'm on my way home. -We aren't inside the webtoon, right?

What do you mean?

How could we talk on the phone then?

We're talking on the phone now.

Then why did I see So-hee just now?

So-hee? Do you mean Yoon So-hee?

No.

What are you talking about?

Never mind, I'll call you later. I'm not sure what's going on.

Su-bong.

Su-bong.

Su-bong.

Where did he go?

MYUNGSEI UNIVERSITY MEDICAL CENTER

-Hello? -What happened to my dad?

-What? -The door's open and he's gone.

What happened to him?

I definitely locked the door.

I'll call you after I find him.

Yeon-joo.

-Dad? -Yeon-joo.

Dad.

Dad.

-When did you get here? -A minute ago.

I didn't vacate the penthouse like you said but what will you do?

I need a place to stay when I come back here.

Where are you coming from?

-From the moon? -Of all the...

Stop joking around. I'm serious.

I was at your funeral yesterday. I don't feel like joking around.

I'm sorry. It's too complicated to explain.

I'll tell you in time. Where is the will?

Here.

LAW OFFICES OF CHA YOUNG-HO

ASSIGNOR

Don't give it to me. I don't want to deal with it.

Who else can I trust?

I told you I'm retiring.

I'm going to start martial arts again.

I hate dealing with paperwork.

I'll leave it under your name for now. You can find a successor if you want.

You're such a...

Right. Have you seen So-hee?

-What? -So-hee said she saw you.

-Where? -In front of the lobby.

She said she saw you driving by.

Did she really see me?

So-hee, I have to get going. I have to meet someone.

I'll get you a cab.

I just saw Chul.

-What? -He was here just now.

He drove up in his car but it suddenly disappeared.

What are you talking about? That makes no sense.

He's dead.

No. He saw me too.

How can this be?

It was suddenly daytime.

I saw sunlight as I was walking out.

That's when Chul appeared.

But now it's suddenly nighttime again,

and his car disappeared.

What is happening?

It was so hard to cover up. You need to be more careful.

Hello? Yes.

I'm out right now.

There is...

another variable?

Yes, I was definitely thinking about So-hee.

I suddenly thought of her as I drove up to the hotel.

I'm the main character, and I'm living in the real world.

Then is it my third hypothesis?

If I think of a character from the webtoon,

they can be summoned into the real world?

Did I...

accidentally summon someone?

Does it hurt anywhere? Are you all right?

I think I'm okay.

Do you want water?

Rest for a bit, and then let's go to the hospital.

You need to get some tests. Who knows what was damaged?

What happened?

How did I come back?

It's just like the story you had originally planned.

Kang Chul came back and wrote it himself.

He's making Han Cheol-ho kill the killer.

He said that was the only way to bring you back.

Kang Chul?

Yes, Chul.

He came here, Dad.

Don't you remember? We spent a few days together.

I don't know.

I don't know.

Don't think about it for now. You need to rest.

Where is Chul?

Where is he?

He went back there.

Into the webtoon?

Yes. He didn't know you were back.

He'll come back once he confirms the killer is dead.

I'd better call Su-bong. He's going to be so happy.

He's been having heart palpitations because of you.

That means Kang Chul isn't here, right?

Shit. I waited for nothing.

Pardon?

What I mean is,

I thought I could get rid of you both at once.

Dad.

Dad?

How am I your dad?

Do-yoon! Where is Han Cheol-ho right now?

How can that happen? How is that possible in a police station?

I'm speechless.

All right. Call me back.

-What happened? -It's Ms. Yoon. I heard Han Sang-hun...

-Is he dead? -...escaped from prison.

-What? -Can you believe that?

How can they lose a killer from the police station?

Hey. Can't you hear me?

Don't send me to the prosecutor!

Han Cheol-ho will kill me while I'm on my way! Don't you get it?

He's going to send thugs to kill me!

You need to protect me right now, you bastards!

Bring Han Cheol-ho here.

I said, bring Han Cheol-ho!

Seriously.

Hey, where did he go?

What?

What happened?

Come by 10:00 a.m. Okay.

Yes. My name is Park Su-bong.

I've been having chest pain.

I'll be right there.

Yes, thank you.

Goodness.

Were you locked in here?

Come out now.

Dad?

How am I your dad?

It's been a while, Yeon-joo.

You were the problem. You.

The story got messed up because of you.

You kept on drawing.

Kang Chul should've been long dead,

but you hid him and saved him.

You took the book to the other world and made Chul realize everything.

If it weren't for you, this would have ended a long time ago.

Do you know how much of a hassle this is?

I read all the chapters here.

I know how Chul goes back and forth between the two worlds.

Once you get how it works, it's easy.

I can do it too.

Want to go with me

to find your husband?

He just disappeared while being interrogated.

-Does that make sense? -When was that?

It must've been about an hour.

I'm sorry. I'll call you again.

Where are you going?

Where are you going?

OH YEON-JOO

KANG CHUL

All right.

Draw a car.

Draw a cell phone too.

I'm telling you, we were all ready.

But all of a sudden, a siren went off.

That bastard escaped from the interrogation room.

Are you kidding me right now?

How can he get out of there?

How could he get out of there?

It's getting worse.

RESTRICTED NUMBER

Hello?

I told you not to mess with me, didn't I?

This bastard never listens. After I helped you so much...

How did you get out?

Don't mess with me!

I can kill you right away, do you hear me?

You don't even know how things work. What makes you think you can kill me?

And do you think I don't know about that gangster Jang Won-hwi?

Prepare a safe house.

Right now.

Find a place within five minutes and send me the address.

I told you.

We're in the same boat now.

Look.

Why would I?

Chul is alive.

That bastard isn't dead yet.

Don't think about anything else if you want to catch him. Okay?

Let's go to Gwangmyeong. Drive.

Good job.

You can rest after drawing one more.

I don't need that tablet anymore,

so destroy it completely.

Go.

Gosh.

Oh, gosh.

Oh, Chul.

-Wait out here. -What?

Come in later. It's dangerous.

Chul! What's wrong?

What's going on?

It's dangerous here. Go somewhere else.

What's happening? I thought everything was going well.

-The killer took Yeon-joo. -What?

The killer took Yeon-joo? Why--

Chul!

That asshole.

How do I get rid of him?

Who is he exactly?

Hello? Are you on your way?

Listen to me carefully.

You can't kill him. Just watch what he does.

I have to check something, so make sure he doesn't run.

Got it?

Good. I'll head there later.

Where did you send Han Sang-hun?

-You... -What's the address you mentioned?

Where is Sang-hun?

How are you still alive?

Tell me now. I don't have time.

Sir! What's going on?

HAN CHEOL-HO

Who are you?

-Kang Chul... -Kang Chul?

Sir!

Are you all right?

What happened? He looked a lot like Kang Chul.

GWANGMYEONG

Why don't I take you to the hospital?

Leave me alone for a while.

I am so sorry.

I didn't see anyone go in. How could this happen?

-Kang Chul... -Yes?

Kang Chul is alive.

But he died, didn't he? He looked quite similar, but...

That asshole was right.

It will be even better if he leaves a repenting suicide note.

Who are you?

There's something.

There's something that I don't know.

How dare you two threaten me?

-Get the car. -Where are you going?

If there's something I don't know, I should find out.

Turn left.

Turn right over here.

Okay. Stop here.

UNDER CONSTRUCTION

Turn off the engine.

Get out.

I wanted to shoot you in front of your husband,

but I think this is the only way to get him to come here.

I've waited for a long time

because Chul didn't remember you.

It was meaningless to shoot you when he didn't know you were his wife.

Now that he knows who you are,

it'll be worthwhile to shoot you.

Please...

Please...

don't kill me.

I can't do that. You're Chul's family.

My purpose of existence is to get rid of you.

Please, I beg you.

Who told you to put on that wedding ring?

Who told you to be the main female character?

Did you expect a happy ending?

TO BE CONTINUED

What is that?

Have you lost your mind?

Move, you idiot!

W BY OH SEONG-MOO

DID YOU EXPECT A HAPPY ENDING?

Shit.

What's that? What's going on?

Shit. What should we do?

Those morons.

What's going on?

TO BE CONTINUED

I'm going back in.

I mean, how could this happen?

You've really never seen her before?

No, never!

I don't think she even lives here. Whom should I call?

It's disturbing.

It's quite absurd.

She doesn't have a bag or a cell phone.

Who are you? Where did you come from?

What happened to the woman who was here?

Oh, my gosh!

What happened here?

I found a woman passed out and covered in blood,

so I just put her in an ambulance.

-Is she alive? -She was alive then,

but I'm not sure because she was dying.

Which hospital?

They say she's in critical condition

from losing so much blood.

You seem injured as well. Are you okay?

What's your relationship with the woman?

I'm her husband.

Where is Yeon-joo?

Where is Yeon-joo?

Yeon-joo?

Even if I kill you here,

it won't be considered a crime.

Nobody will say anything even if you die again here.

I need to save someone.

Where's Yeon-joo?

She's dead.
