(in this drama are fictitious.)

(Episode 9)

Please go in.

I really enjoyed the food.

My gosh, sir. It looks like I'm a bit late.

Don't worry at all. I know how busy you are.

Come and have a seat here.

Okay.

Oh, you should sit on this cushion.

Thank you very much, Mr. Kim.

It's been a while, Mr. Han.

Working closely with your young secretary...

must be making you look younger.

You're looking great yourself as well...

despite all the stress you've been under due to Chairman Kim's scandal.

Goodness, why is it getting so tense here?

I'm visiting my hometown after a long time. Will you keep this up?

Oh, right. Let me pour you a drink.

You know, about the terminal relocation project...

I'm very interested in it.

You're well aware of it, right?

Of course. It was one of your promises.

I'm thoroughly checking everything to make sure there are no mistakes.

Good. There must not be any mistakes.

- Let's drink. - Okay.

Hello.

Why are you guys just looking at each other? Shake hands.

The former and current governors must gather strength...

for the betterment of our community.

It's been a long time, Mr. Han.

Yes. It's been a long time indeed, Mr. Cheon.

Oh, boy.

Sir!

Did you like the food?

Who's this guy?

He's the head of the youth committee I told you about.

Oh, is he the young man you told me about?

He is Mr. Cheon's henchman.

His name is Lee Jin Seok.

Please allow me to introduce myself properly.

Hello.

I oversee the youth committee. My name is Lee Jin Seok.

Nice to meet you. Without patriotic young men like you,

there can't be advancement of democracy.

I'm honored to meet you, Mr. Han.

Are you really the head of the youth committee?

Pardon me?

I don't think you are.

Aren't you a thug?

Mr. Han.

Can't thugs be in politics?

- Are you siding with this thug? - What did you just say?

Goodness, break it up.

Don't fight about things like that.

If we can't enter the path of salvation,

all of us will be doomed anyway.

Sir, please get in.

All right.

I'll see you around.

Yes, see you.

- Oh, right. - Yes.

I heard your son is back in town.

Yes.

He's staying out of trouble, right?

Chief Kim told me earlier...

that your son was there when the union president's son...

got into the accident three years ago.

His name is Sang Hwan, right? Han Sang Hwan.

Mr. Cheon.

If you want to be...

treated respectfully as the former governor of Muji-gun,

you better keep that mouth shut and stay out of trouble yourself.

If you try to threaten me once again using my son,

I will not let it slide.

All right.

Please allow me to apologize.

Shall I tell you what that hand is for?

It's for wiping after yourself.

Save it for your filthy faeces!

Ms. Lee.

You better take good care of your boss.

That foul mouth of his will bite him in the end.

Mr. Cheon.

I hope you live long enough...

to go senile and smear your faeces all over your walls.

Take care.

(Guseonwon)

Sang Mi.

I mean, our future Spiritual Mother.

You're athletic because you used to be a volleyball player.

Who knows when you'll try to run away again?

No, that won't happen again.

Sang Mi and I are praying a lot these days.

That's right. We shouldn't dwell on the past.

They'll come this way.

Hey, Dong Cheol.

Have you caught them yet?

No, we'll catch them soon.

I'll call you after.

You little...

- Guys, are you ready? - My dad is a cop, you know.

I used to be in the wrestling team.

Let's go.

We're looking at demons.

They must be here to steal what belongs to Almighty.

Do you know what works like a charm when you need to get rid of demons?

It's this.

We need to beat them up to a pulp to knock some sense into them.

Wan Deok, let's go.

(Wait for us. We're going to save you.)

We'll save you.

What are you trying to do?

Sang Mi!

- Where are you going? - Let go!

- Wait, Sang Mi. - Sang Mi.

Don't be fooled by them, Sang Mi. They're evil.

- Sang Mi! - Sang Mi, don't let them fool you.

They're demons.

Who the heck are you? Get out!

Sang Mi!

You rat.

Sang Mi!

- Gosh. - Get back here, Sang Mi!

Sang Mi!

You demon.

Sang Mi!

Sang Hwan! Hurry up.

- Sang Mi! - Sang Mi, get back here!

How dare you steal Almighty's possession?

Sang Mi!

You evil monsters, stop.

- Stop the car! - Sang Mi!

Sang Mi!

Gosh, Apostle Kang.

Sang Mi!

Sang Mi! Sang Mi!

- What should we do? - Sang Mi!

Okay.

Just come back for now.

- Man Hee. - Yes?

No one is following us. You can slow down a little.

Okay.

Apostle Kang.

Sang Mi will be okay, right?

No.

She needs to receive salvation. She must.

Well... Apostle Kang.

Hey.

Stop rummaging around and get back here already!

He's so dumb.

Darn it.

(Join us on the happy journey to the paradise on the Boat of Salvation.)

Apostle Jo.

What should we do now?

Please don't worry. What belongs...

to Almighty always comes back to his arms.

Our wishes will be fulfilled. I believe it.

Aren't I right, Apostle Kang?

Apostle Kang.

Yes?

What's wrong?

Please don't be so flustered. Are you worried...

that she might end up like Yu Ra?

What are you talking about? Watch what you say.

I'll make sure...

Sang Mi becomes Spiritual Mother.

At all costs.

- Our wishes will be fulfilled. - No matter what.

- Gosh. - Oh, boy. Good work.

I'm so hungry right now.

- Gosh. - Oh, boy. Good work.

My stomach is hurting so much.

What brings you here?

I never got to apologize...

or thank you.

I didn't have a chance to say anything.

I don't need to hear it.

I survived thanks to you.

Had no one helped me that day,

I would've also died like my brother did.

So please...

Live.

Thanks.

All of you.

Thanks so much.

Don't mention it.

We're in a bit of pain,

but the four of us could gather like this thanks to you.

It's all good.

Things might get tougher from now on.

By the way, they'll try to track us down.

Where should we hide?

(We deliver all over Muji. Group orders are welcomed.)

We should return the car first, don't you think?

I really want to see his face when we bring the car back.

Oh, we're just going to a friend's place. You don't need to worry.

In order to find a lost sheep,

I can even risk going to the valley of death.

However, those who have lost their faith...

are no longer Almighty's children.

Spiritual Father.

Please don't desert her.

Please.

Please save Sang Mi.

Who else can get rid of those demons that took her?

Only you can do it.

Please. I beg you.

Spiritual Father, please.

Apostle Im, you should fast and pray starting today.

This happened to Sang Mi because you haven't been...

praying earnestly enough.

Wan Deok, why are you just standing there?

Apostle Kang,

it looks like you no longer want to be on the Boat of Salvation.

Spiritual Father.

Do you really...

want to end up in the fiery pit of eternal torture?

Spiritual Father, you know that I've been doing...

my very best to serve you and Almighty.

Apostle Kang.

Another mistake will not be tolerated.

Please don't...

disappoint Almighty further.

Are we clear?

Yes.

Spiritual Father, you're scaring her too much.

You know how hard she works.

Please don't be like this.

I'm sure she'll do a good job.

Aren't I right?

- Apostle Jo. - Yes.

This morning,

I got a call from Senator Park.

It looks like you'll need to do a better job from now on.

We've been building...

our churches,

prayer retreats, and hospitals.

Do you want all of our hard work to go to waste?

Our believers have been working so hard for Guseonwon.

I must provide a strong foothold so that their faith is never shaken.

That is my mission and duty.

Don't you agree,

Apostle Jo?

- Our wishes will be fulfilled. - I believe it.

Why are you two just sitting here?

Go and bring Sang Mi back.

For goodness' sake.

What on earth am I doing right now?

What is it?

Food? You want food?

Are you kidding me? How can you think about food right now?

You're way too weak for a big guy.

That's why we're in this mess now. You little...

Follow me.

Get back here. Hey, do you think we have time to eat right now?

Wan Deok.

Do you or do you not know that I'm having trouble...

with my business?

That's right.

I'm under a lot of stress these days,

so don't cause me more trouble.

Hey.

Act natural, and be quiet.

Let's go.

Sergeant Woo.

Hello.

Gosh. Apostle Jo, have you found them?

We've checked every place they would go,

but no one has seen them.

Have you found anything?

We're looking for them leaving everything else aside,

but we can't find any clues.

Gosh, where are they hiding?

How did you say the young men who took her look like?

One of them was over 180cm tall, and he had big eyes...

and distinct facial features.

Another one was about 170cm tall...

with a round face.

Oh, he was very cheeky.

The other one was a fat guy who seemed to weigh over 100kg.

They seemed to have been interested in us for a while.

The three of them always went around as a group.

Sergeant Woo. Do you know those guys by any chance?

Kids these days mostly look like that.

They're either tall, short, or fat.

That's how all kids in this town look like.

When I run into my own son on the street,

I can hardly recognize him.

- Don't you think so? - Yes.

They all look similar indeed.

We're doing our best to find them,

so please don't worry.

Okay. Thank you so much.

As you already know, she's not of sound mind.

If she gets into an accident... Gosh, it'd be terrible.

By the way,

if you find her, please take her to the hospital first.

Okay.

What are you all doing?

- You are just... - Hey.

Let them take a rest.

They probably couldn't even breathe well.

Gosh, you guys are...

You haven't changed at all since you were in high school.

Cut it out. Go and buy some instant noodles.

I got completely beaten up by that man with curly hair.

You still managed to hang on to his leg.

I wasn't hanging on to his leg. I was stopping him.

Sang Hwan, you saw it, right?

I didn't.

You didn't? Gosh.

Dong Cheol, listen to these guys. They're so mean.

I ran to him to stop him,

grabbed him hard, and got beaten up.

All right, I hear you.

Are you okay?

You're okay now, so stop trembling.

Thank you.

Well... Sure.

You should thank me in particular.

It's crucial for broadcasters to have a handsome face,

but my face was...

That's enough.

Well done.

Just split it in half. I don't want to eat crumbs.

Put some kimchi and ham in it too.

You're just so rude.

This is my house. You should cook it yourselves.

By the way,

we've come this far.

Perhaps, you should tell us now.

Let's eat first. She must be hungry.

We can stay here tonight and...

What are you talking about?

Let's stay here tonight...

and go to the police station where Jung Hoon's dad works tomorrow.

We'll figure out a way then.

That's right.

She needs to tell us the whole story so my dad can help her.

Hey.

Take out any book and place it under the pot.

All right. Let's eat first.

(Our Lord Our Joy)

I'm the leader of the youth group at the church.

How cool. You're so cool, Mr. Leader.

Gosh, you're so great.

Here.

- All right. Let's eat. - Let's eat.

How many packs did you cook?

Aren't you going to eat?

They said they should...

let the cult leader have me...

to find salvation.

Are you okay?

Die. Die!

What are you doing? Don't hurt me.

My dear Sang Jin died because of you. I'm going to kill you!

- I'm going to kill you! - Help me.

- Somebody, help! - Die!

I'm going to kill you!

Come here!

Sang Mi, help me. Honey! subtitles ripped and synced by riri13

I didn't do anything.

I just told her to eat her meal, but she started yelling.

Sang Mi!

You must be tired.

Rest up by yourself here tonight.

- "By yourself"? - Jung Hoon, give me your cellphone.

- Why? - Just give it to me.

Okay.

That's right. Keep it just in case.

Don't worry.

We will come running if you call us.

What about me?

Let's go.

- This is my house. - Let's go.

Come on. Rest up.

Hey, let's get this straight.

Her dad sold her off to the cult leader...

No, I mean...

He's trying to let them have a spiritual marriage.

Gosh, that's completely insane. It's absurd.

The cult leader must have tricked her dad first.

How did those people get into our town?

It's no use talking about it among ourselves.

We'll go to the police station where Jung Hoon's dad works...

and ask him to investigate on it.

Hey.

Ma'am. We're talking about something important.

Don't sneak up on us.

Sneak up? You rude brat.

You're not up to something silly again, are you?

Gosh, do you think we're little kids?

What are you staring at?

Shall I call your mom here right now?

Why would you call her?

- You don't need to. - What are you saying?

It's not like that. Please don't worry.

Here. It's on the house.

Thank you.

Couldn't she give it to us nicely? Goodness.

She's a nice lady if she didn't have such a bad temper.

Sang Hwan.

Do you have to take Sang Mi to the police station?

What are you talking about?

I don't trust them.

We don't even have evidence yet.

Do you think the police will investigate it properly?

Hey, it may not seem like it, but my dad gets his job done.

That's right. We have the victim,

and she can give them a detailed statement.

They will find evidence as they investigate.

Evidence?

Do you think they're sloppy enough to leave evidence?

Even if they find evidence,

it will be no use.

I will talk to my dad about it.

Don't worry.

In this town, if you have money and connection,

you can make an innocent person guilty.

That's what happened before.

Wasn't it?

It will be different this time.

Trust me.

Apostle Kang.

Excuse me, Apostle Kang.

What is it?

I need to bring medicine to the patients.

Okay.

Here.

Wait, Ms. Hong.

Yes?

I don't feel very well today.

(Kim Bo Eun)

Please help Ms. Kim Bo Eun take this.

Me?

It won't be difficult.

Put the pills in her mouth, and check if she swallows them.

Okay.

(Digestive aid)

I believe in you, Almighty, my saviour.

Almighty.

You have...

led our family...

to this land of Muji to save us.

However, our faith is too weak...

to obey you, Almighty.

Almighty.

Please show us a miracle.

Please save us.

I believe in you. Our wishes will be fulfilled.

Our wishes will be fulfilled. I believe it.

Please save us.

Hello.

This is a list of companies related to Mr. Cheon.

Just scare them a little...

so they can make the decision on their own.

Okay. I understand.

That man named Cha Joon Gu.

He won't cause trouble later, right?

He helped Mr. Cheon and got betrayed by Lee Jin Seok.

He's holding a deep grudge.

Even if something goes wrong,

I can make it look like a revenge of a thug.

He has no family or a gang that he belongs to.

Don't worry.

- Chief Lee. - Yes, sir.

You should realize how valuable a person is.

During the election, he will have a vote too.

Yes. You're right.

Governor. You caught a big fish.

Gosh. You're good at fishing too.

What?

Gosh, Governor Han is...

a humanist.

Let me tell you this.

I don't fish to catch the fish and eat it.

I fish because I find it funny...

when the fish struggles to live even with a hook in its gill.

That's why I fish.

I see.

Darn it.

You'll be a regular customer here soon.

I heard you owe Lee Jin Seok something.

Everyone in Muji-gun knows it.

Don't just spread words and crush him then.

What are you trying to say to me?

Let's work together on something. Think of it as a part-time job.

I heard you came here because you caused trouble in Seoul.

You're a smart guy.

Are you trying to threaten me to make me do the dirty work?

That's how this town is.

We make innocent people guilty and send them to prison.

It's even easier to send a former criminal back to the prison.

Don't be so scared.

I'm a detective. I'm not going to tell you to kill someone.

Fine, let's do it. What's the job?

Go to the companies on that list and steal their account books.

If you want to finish Lee Jin Seok,

you should hit the people above him first. Don't you think so?

I will see you later then.

A hooked fish struggling to live.

Interesting.

It's interesting.

Dear lord, please help me.

- Dear lord. - Hey!

You'd better tell me now.

You're having an affair with that pastor, aren't you?

Honey, please don't say such a sinful thing.

Do you think I'm an idiot?

You go out early in the morning and come home late at night.

It's because you're having an affair with that pastor!

I was on night duty at the hospital.

How dare you try to fool me?

- Do you think I'll buy it? - Stop it.

You're crazy, Dad.

- Our pastor is a great person. - Darn it.

Both of you have gone completely insane.

All right.

Let's all die together tonight. Let's just die!

Please help. Help us.

Please help us. Please.

Almighty.

Please save me from this agony.

I will get on the Boat of Salvation...

and see you no matter what, Almighty.

I love you,

Almighty.

What are you...

Gosh, those brats.

What happened to his face?

- You brat. - Gosh!

- Dad. - Your dad is a police officer.

- You can't cause any trouble. - Of course not, Dad.

- Get up, and eat breakfast. - Okay.

You little...

"I will save you."

"I will save you no matter what."

Hello?

It's me, Sang Hwan.

I need you to do something with me today.

Does it need to be done today?

Dong Cheol.

Have I ever asked you for help?

Okay.

(Muji Construction Office)

Don't you want to know what I'm going to ask you to help me with?

You helped me once. So I should help you in return.

You punk.

You're all grown up now.

Let's go.

What's this?

Hey, call the guys.

Okay.

That's right. Call everyone...

so that I can take care of this in one go.

You must be crazy.

What are you doing? Go get him.

My gosh, all his clothes are black or dark-coloured.

Gosh, I can't believe he wears these kinds of stuff.

She's not a model going to a fashion show.

These kind of clothes will help her stay out of sight.

They're all so dark.

Just drop it.

What?

Why does she look cute in these?

Are you ready?

Yes.

Let's go.

Jung Hoon.

What?

Let's take a taxi.

A taxi? Why waste money?

My dad's just around the corner.

Sang Hwan's right. They'll recognize us right away...

if we ride the scooter.

We never know what might happen.

Okay. Then let me call my dad...

and ask him to come pick us up.

Jung Hoon.

We're not going to see your dad.

We're going to go to Muji Police Station.

Muji Police Station?

Why? Can't you trust my dad?

Are you looking down on him for working at a patrol division?

No, that's not it.

Then what is it?

Your dad thinks...

I'm insane.

What?

I ran away once.

And the people of Guseonwon had told your dad...

that I'm mentally ill.

So he sent me back there.

It's not because of your dad.

It's because of Guseonwon.

My gosh, don't worry. It doesn't matter which police we go to.

Okay, okay.

Yes, let's not worry. Everything will turn out fine.

Let's go.

We should still call Dong Cheol and tell him, right?

I'll call him.

No, don't call him.

He probably worked all night last night. Let's let him take some rest.

Let's just take care of this by ourselves.

Let's go.

What is this?

You jerk!

You punk.

Let's go.

Dong Cheol, I'll block them.

You go inside and get the files.

Hey.

Dong Cheol.

Aren't you the governor's son?

Yes, I am.

Why are you going to Muji Police Station?

My dad asked me to do something for him.

I see.

You can't take the files.

You have to understand that I work for Jin Seok.

Let's go.

Wait.

Where... Where are you going?

You know me, don't you?

Yes.

You can call them and tell them that I'm here.

Are you okay?

Hello?

Yes.

Okay.

Of course.

Mr. Kim, you will be blessed beyond belief.

Yes. Our wishes will be fulfilled.

They just went inside the police station.

What if Sang Mi tells the police something?

Aren't you surprised by our Almighty's grace?

What?

Do you still lack faith?

Don't worry.

Our Almighty...

puts all our believers into great use.

Hello, Mr. Park.

I didn't even do anything wrong.

But this place still gives me the creeps.

May I help you?

Hey, you're the governor's son.

I thought you were studying law in Seoul. What brings you here?

Should I say "Your Honour"...

when you become a judge?

So you're saying that there's a weird cult,

and that your dad forced you to go there with him?

And you also said that the leader of that cult...

is trying to get married to you by using that cult as an excuse.

Am I correct?

Yes.

Detective, don't you think this is too much?

They should obviously get punished for this, right?

Let's walk through this step by step.

Can you tell me your name and other personal information?

My name is Im Sang Mi.

And I'm 20 years old.

You're Im Sang Mi?

Yes.

Then what's your dad's name?

He's Im Joo Ho.

My gosh.

I can't believe I wasted my time last night.

How do you guys know her?

We're her friends.

Detective Lee, the chief's calling you.

- Right now? - Yes.

Hello, chief.

Yes.

Okay.

Okay, I understand.

Call her dad and tell him to come.

Okay.

What did you just say? Who did you tell him to call?

Excuse me, sir.

Her dad came to us last night and reported that she got abducted.

Thanks to you, we were on emergency alert.

We had to stay up all night because of her.

Excuse me.

But her dad's the one who locked her up inside a room.

That's forcible confinement.

Then he forced her to join a cult,

and he's making her marry the leader against her will.

That's against the law too.

You know that both are cases of criminal acts...

regardless of whether or not it was done by a family member.

We just took her out of there because...

she asked us for help.

Are you still going to call her dad to come?

Why are you guys getting involved in someone else's family issue?

Plus, I can't start an investigation...

only after listening to what you tell me.

You must know well since you study law.

It's not just a normal family issue. It's family violence.

Anyone can report to the police regarding family violence.

And as soon as you receive a report,

you're supposed to separate the victim and assailant,

and take them to a facility for counselling and protection.

How can you call the assailant and tell him to take the victim?

What did you say?

Not all kinds of disciplinary action are considered as family violence.

Listen to me.

You need to bring me evidence if you want me to investigate.

That's how the law works.

It's very hard for a police to mess with a religious organization.

Plus, do you think we're supposed to carry out an investigation...

every time someone comes here and asks for one?

My gosh, this is driving me crazy. This is so frustrating.

What did you say? Come here.

How many times do we have to tell you?

Her dad and the cult leader are all in this together.

Are you going to believe us after her dad beats her,

takes her back to the cult, and marries her off to the leader?

My gosh.

Hey, law student.

I can charge you for obstruction of justice.

Abduction, obstruction of justice, and contempt.

Do you want to get charged with all of that?

But still, how can you send her back...

when she came all the way here to ask you for help?

He's right. You already heard what we told you.

Miss.

I'm not doing this on purpose.

But your dad reported that you got abducted,

so these guys may get in trouble instead.

Is that okay with you?

I didn't get abducted. I asked them for help.

I heard everything about what happened yesterday at the bridge.

Hey, this is not a simple problem.

And this is a family issue,

so the best case scenario is to solve this issue internally.

Miss, let me introduce you to a family clinic.

You should go there with your dad.

Hey, you're supposed to be a cop. What do you think you're doing?

What did you say?

Her dad locked her up and is trying to marry her off to a cult leader!

Why would we have come here if we could talk things out with him?

- Hey, get him out of here. - Yes.

- This crazy punk. - Come here.

I thought you'd be different since you're from Seoul,

but you're the same piece of trash.

- Come over here! - Lock them up in a holding cell.

How dare he talk back to a police?

You shouldn't do this if you're the police.

- What did you say? - Come here!

Do you think you can act that way because you're the governor's son?

- Stop it. - You'll end up regretting this.

What are you doing? Lock them up!

Please stop it!

I'll go back.

I'll go back to Guseonwon.

So just let them go.

Sang Mi.

I knew things would turn out this way.

I'll do my best to take care of it.

Good thinking. The quickest way is to...

take care of these kind of problems on your own.

Regardless, I want all three of them locked up.

- Okay, sir. - Come on, let's go.

- Come on. - Follow me.

- Come here. - My gosh, come over here.

Let's go. Come on.

My gosh, this is so annoying.

This makes no sense at all.

Something needs to happen in order for them to become guilty.

Why are you driving like that?

This is a Crosswalk.

Sergeant Woo.

- Have a good day. - My goodness.

My gosh, he's so kind.

(Guseonwon)

The worship service has begun.

Let's go.

I'll go on my own.

(Save Me)

Hey, hey.

Hey, we've never been to a place like this before.

Hey, we're not here to play around.

Guys, be quiet.

Hey, Dong Cheol. They're in the park.

Okay, be careful.

Is he going to begin?

Gosh, my shoelace came undone.

Excuse me.

Yes?

I'm sorry for calling you out of the blue.

No, it's okay. What's up?
