[moody, intense intro music plays]

I think the left side should be a little lower than that.

[man] Move it to the left. A little down. That's right. Looking real good.

JOO YEO-JEONG PLASTIC SURGERY

[Yeo-jeong] Is it okay if I touch you?

I don't want to startle you.

[gentle music playing]

The button on my sleeve fell off when I went to the car mechanic's.

Crawling on the floor

like I was crazy.

Aren't they hard to look at?

My scars?

They're injuries.

But if you collapse like that again,

call me so you won't be alone.

I can understand the burden that anger can be.

I've been there before.

Just wait here. I'll put a new button on for you.

Sit.

Just trust me.

My sewing is better than most tailors out there.

Who was it?

The person you needed me to help beat at Go?

[operator] The person you are trying to reach is unavailable.

There you are.

I thought you weren't home yet.

I'm off to work.

[lighter clinks]

[lighter clinks]

What's this?

Taking a trip down memory lane?

Oh honey, I didn't think you'd be the one to dig this out.

They're your friends from high school.

[laughs] Before Hye-jeong got all that work done.

Well, maybe I should get a boob job too. Do you think I should?

Son Myeong-o isn't in this picture.

Oh, he's not.

But, honey, how do you know Myeong-o?

Do you often see Jae-jun or Myeong-o?

Sometimes.

Whenever I have a fitting, I do it at Jae-jun's shop.

But I haven't talked to Myeong-o lately.

Ugh, oh my God.

Sometimes, he does some really weird stuff.

Did Myeong-o say anything at all odd? Did he threaten you at all?

What'd he say?

[chuckles dryly]

You and your friends

aren't acting normal right now.

Son Myeong-o comes up, and you all ask if I was threatened.

Get to work safely.

[door closes]

RECENT DESTINATIONS PLATINUM CC

Did he and Jae-jun meet up?

[ominous music building]

[Dong-eun] Ha Do-yeong.

At Jaepyeong Construction.

And he's Yeon-jin's husband.

Why are you interested in her husband, then?

When I finally get my revenge some day,

Yeong-jin will have nobody who can be at her side.

Not even her daughter or her husband.

She'll have no one left.

No one she has loved left.

So did you win your match?

Yeah, I won,

but because I had a good teacher.

[chuckles]

The passcode is seven-two-four, Dong-eun.

[gentle Korean pop ballad playing]

It may take us months or years,

but let's play Go together again.

I'll make a move, and then you can come whenever you can and make your move.

That way, I'll know you were here.

So then it's okay if you don't answer my calls.

Just let me know how you are.

That's all I'll ever need.

And then after all of this, I'll do what you want.

I'll do anything for you.

I'll happily be your executioner.

[woman] Please sign in here.

[indistinct chatter]

[tense, mischievous music playing]

Hi there.

Is this unusual, so many young women here now?

The shaman that good?

I can't really say. First time.

I heard from my friend who was here before,

she'll solve any problem you bring her.

Any problem, huh?

Who do we have here, huh?

Ms. Kang Hyeon-a?

Ms. Kang Hyeon-a?

Kang Hyeon-a!

Here! I'm here. That's me, right there. Here.

Do you think you can get it out? It's oil.

Sure, I can.

And I can even sew on a new button for you.

Oh, just…

leave it like that.

[knocking at door]

[door opens]

[assistant] I sent a plant to congratulate Dr. Joo on his new practice.

And this is all the mail that came in today.

Oh, thank you.

God.

You think he's sent his credit card bills?

That son of a…

[whimpers]

That son of a…

[whimpering, panting]

[music trails off]

Hmm…

[low, menacing music builds]

[menacing music intensifies]

One-hundred-eighty-two centimeters.

And 75 kilograms.

[flesh rending, blood gushing]

[sighs heavily]

[menacing music swells, trails off]

[tinny, upbeat religious music playing]

[choir singing indistinctly]

[panting]

[sighs] Could you at least try to be more ethical?

Why couldn't you just take my money instead of meeting in a holy place?

I really like this place.

Makes me think your Heavenly Father will bless this conversation.

I don't have to count this?

[scoffs]

This bitch right here…

You go off to college and now you think you're better than everyone?

[zips bag]

I'll be going now, then.

This arrogant bitch has somewhere to be.

Hey! You won't go to heaven.

But I can still go.

'Cause I've been saved, since I asked for forgiveness.

[chuckles wryly]

God's on your side?

Funny.

I hope you go there when you die,

'cause you'll be in hell while you're alive.

What did you mean by that? What else are you gonna do, huh?

Let go now,

or I'll call your father, the minister, to bless the exchange between us.

Hey! Hey, stop!

I'm talking to you! Hey!

Hey!

[panting, grunting]

Ah, shit!

[doors fling open]

[choir stops]

Are we having our session here?

Today, I'm having you take an assessment test.

Try. That's all you have to do. But it'll be easy. I'll wait here.

What kind of assessment?

I'm gonna send you to the U.S. to study.

Study abroad?

Something unexpected happened, so I can't tutor you anymore.

This way, you'll have a better teacher that you can study with.

[scoffs]

Oh, wow.

Why would you make up a lie that now?

How are you going to send me to study abroad?

Could you afford to?

Yeah. I just got some money.

[phone chimes]

[woman] Come in, please.

TAIL - DO YOU HAVE THE MONEY?

[whistle blowing]

That was incredible. Nice job, Ye-sol.

Just like Son Heung-min.

But the, uh, kid with the pink socks

really doesn't seem to understand how to play fair. Somebody could get hurt.

You mean Kim Ji-uk?

Oh, yeah. He always tries and tackles everyone.

Yeah?

Ah! Daddy, we have an open class next Friday, Daddy!

It's just for dads.

It's okay if you can't go to it. I like you when you're busy, too.

No way.

Of course I'm going to go,

even if I'm busy.

Hey, Ye-sol.

Can I ask about your teacher?

Your mom doesn't seem to like her much. Ye-sol, how about you? You like her?

She's a friend. Why?

Of who?

Yours?

No, my teacher's a friend of Mommy.

They went to the same high school together.

[Hye-jeong] Ha Do-yeong?

Since when do you care about Yeon-jin's husband?

Just curious what he's like.

I've realized I don't know him at all.

He's nice, but a son of a bitch.

You always see assholes like him in first class.

They think flight attendants are just maids who speak little English.

Fuck that.

You know how many applied for my job, huh?

[woman] This is our latest Vera Wang.

This dress has a mermaid silhouette,

meaning it's perfect for brides with a beautiful figure.

Like it? Look good?

Just my type.

I've got a question.

"Nice son of a bitch" means what, exactly? How am I any different from that, huh?

Obviously, you're a shithead.

Do-yeon, on the other hand…

You need to look close to know.

He's not trying to be one either.

It's just he's already so used to ordering people around.

Ah, I see.

That's why his eyes look like that.

Did you and Do-yeong meet up? Why?

Does he know about you and Yeon-jin?

Hye-jeong…

Yeah?

Even if he knew, you still wouldn't have a chance.

Take the hint already.

However, that dress looks great on you.

You really should get married.

At your age, you'll never find another boyfriend who'll get you a Vera Wang.

And make sure to ask your boyfriend where he had his last wedding at.

Maybe they'll give you a discount,

since he's a regular.

[chuckles]

[door opens]

He's not the…?

Stop!

Would you like to try on any of our other dresses?

It's the most expensive?

The chest is really fucking tight, so you need to fix it!

[tense, mysterious music playing]

[breathing shakily]

That asshole.

Yeon-jin's is smaller than mine.

Definitely.

So what's wrong?

Snow White chose to live with seven men, did she not?

Why?

Because she knew they were mining for gold.

DOES ANYBODY KNOW WHERE THAT BASTARD MYEONG-O LIVES?

[Louis barking]

[phone trills]

[line ringing]

[operator] The person you're trying to reach…

Ah, shit.

[Yeon-jin] Where are you? Definitely not at home!

Did you actually meet with Do-yeong?

He had your golf club's address in his car's--

[phone chimes]

JAE-JUN SENT A NEW MESSAGE

[sighs]

[low, ominous music playing]

[Jae-jun] When you're there, can you look for my watch?

34-9 Eulseo Road, Jongno-gu.

Don't know his door code.

[phone ringing]

INCOMING CALL JAE-JUN

Why the hell are you not answering my calls?

You ignored my calls first, didn't you?

I was busy. You see the text?

We should meet up. Where are you?

Sure, later.

I'm not in Seoul. I'm at a family reunion.

Ye-sol!

[tense music playing]

Ye-sol!

[music turns ominous]

I'm sorry.

But I was so happy to see you.

Don't worry. I know how to cross the road, too.

It's okay.

Where's Mommy?

Oh I just came to visit you on my own.

Ah, what does Ye-sol like?

Maybe video games? Dolls?

Trading stocks. Samsung or even Kakao.

Huh?

I'm just joking.

Mommy told me to say that if anyone asked me.

Ah. [chuckles]

Hey, you're only eight and you understand a joke like that?

Wow, that's fucking gre…

You're a very smart girl.

Ah, little genius.

I wonder which parent Ye-sol takes after.

[car honking]

Can't they tell this is a fucking school zone?

I'm going to cut off their goddamn hands. Shit.

Don't you see there's a kid, huh?

[exhales]

I know what I'm going to do.

I've made up my mind now.

From now on, I'll protect you.

[chuckles]

I love you, Ye-sol.

[door alarm chimes]

[door closes]

Ugh, that smells.

What happened?

Did he run away or give up half-way?

I can't believe this moron.

He really stole this from Jae-jin?

[screams]

Shit!

Bitch, shouldn't you be at church now?

You see, I can pray anytime, anywhere with this.

I wanted to know who'd come. Turns out it's Sister Hye-jeong.

You crazy bitch. Why do you care who comes or not

Don't you know? The perpetrator will return to the scene of their own crime,

always.

Oh, fuck off.

So Myeong-o isn't here?

-Did you make this big mess? -Mm-hmm..

Just knock, and the door will open for you.

So I knocked, and it opened wide for me.

Look. My prayers are answered.

Stop. Get it away.

[inhales deeply]

God damn it. I need to see him.

If he comes to my wedding and shows weird pictures,

I'm going to be screwed.

Why would he try to screw you over?

Because he couldn't have me.

Hey, you know what that jerk told me?

No idea. Look at this. I think he went on a trip.

Trip?

Vladivostok?

Why are you going to Russia?

Ah. You finally decided to be a dog?

A little sled doggy?

What?

He was actually going to Russia, then?

Why didn't he go?

Ah, fuck me. Was I actually the reason?

-He didn't go? -You're holding his passport.

-[doorbell ringing repeatedly] -[screams]

What the fuck are you screaming for, pussy? Shit.

[woman] I know you're there! Your lights are on!

Come on, open this door! [banging on door]

Didn't you say you were in a hurry to leave?

Then why aren't you answering me? I have people who want to see your room!

What's wrong? What's going on?

-[Sa-ra] He's dead. -[Hye-jeong] See our message?

What are you saying? Slow down a bit.

Myeong-o seems to have gone missing.

We went to his apartment, and his landlord couldn't reach him.

He was moving out, and even had a plane ticket, too.

-It's just weird. -So then, call the police.

You report something like that to the police, not me.

Report? Don't report?

Why? All we're saying is that it looks weird.

Yeah, Sara's right. And besides, I'm getting married soon.

I can't be seen at a police station.

[grunts] Then, why me?

I'm supposed to be at the news van now.

So then,

did Myeong-o not call either of you guys before he left?

Well, I called him often.

He's Jae-jun's driver.

When exactly did you last talk to him?

I guess sometime around the 19th or 20th.

[Sa-ra] Why are you asking?

[sighs] I got a weird-ass call from him that day.

[sighs] So I was wondering if you guys did too.

Like how? Why was it weird?

[Sa-ra] I got a call too.

You did? Tell me. What did he say to you?

Nothing. Kept going on about sending some stupid gift, so I hung up.

He wasn't making any sense.

[Hye-jeong] So, he gave you a gift?

And I got a fucking stupid "I love you"!

That son of a bitch told me he loves me and asked me to visit him soon.

Does he think I'm crazy or what?

Ugh, I'm getting so pissed off thinking about it.

I mean, how dare he think he has a chance?

He thinks we're on the same level?

[Hye-jeong scoffs]

[uproarious laughter]

Tell me, what the hell did you do to Myeong-o?

to have him do something like that, huh?

He's punishing you.

That's so fucking funny.

I'm going now.

I'll be on the news truck, so don't call.

It now makes sense.

[Sa-ra] I was wondering how you knew his door code.

69-69-69.

[Hye-jeong] And what about you? How did you know the code?

I've been there a few times. I just can't even remember how exactly I got there.

I'm sure you two would look cute together.

Fuck you! It's not like that!

[dark, menacing music playing]

[man] Saturday at 3:00 p.m. Locker number C-7.

Passcode's 48-85.

STORAGE AND DELIVERY

[sighs]

[somber music playing]

RÉSUMÉ AN JEONG-MI

Ms. An Jeong-mi, right?

Yes. It's nice to meet you.

I've heard a lot about you.

I'm looking forward to it.

Me too.

I look forward to it, too.

[therapist] How are you feeling?

I'm feeling pretty good.

I've been sleeping well and I'm working out.

Someone told me you opened a practice in Semyeong. Congratulations.

Thank you, ma'am.

I just regret that I didn't listen to you sooner,

when you said I should change my environment.

That's good. Are you eating well?

Semyeong has quite a few great restaurants.

Does it still bring you comfort

when you listen to the sound of tablets dissolving?

This is goodbye, ma'am.

I don't think I'll be back.

It's only a two-hour trip that you'd make once a month.

Is it too much?

It's not because of how far it is.

I've decided it's time to leave because you weren't able to fix me at all.

[suspenseful music playing]

[suspenseful music intensifies]

[siren echoing]

[alarms beeping frantically]

[indistinct shouting]

[man] So what kind of shit did you get yourself into this time?

You asshole. Don't call it shit.

It's not like that this time.

I have something that is very small and precious.

-And I wanna take it from someone. -What do you mean precious?

A jewel? Are you going around stealing things now?

Fuck you. I'm just trying to get back what's mine.

Come on, man.

Just hear me out.

Right. I'll get straight to the point.

No way. It's impossible.

-You can't have the kid. -And why's that?

I'm Ye-sol's father, aren't I?

Biologically, yeah. Not legally.

When a child is born during a marriage,

they are legally considered to belong to the married couple's.

That means her real father's Ha Do-yeong.

[scoffs]

God damn. That's not fucking fair.

Even with a DNA test?

-A 99% match. Isn't it science? -Well, would you waste your time on that?

Even if it was 990 instead of 99%,

as long as the legal father doesn't abandon them,

you'll always be second rate.

Son of a bitch. Can you at least try and file a lawsuit or whatever? Something?

I'm saying you don't even have the grounds to file one.

You're a third party, not considered--

Why am I a third party? I'm her real father. Shit.

[sighs] What kind of fucked-up law even is that?

You might have a chance for a law suit against them

if it's clear that the legal guardians were unable to have a child,

like if one of them was locked up in prison,

or away on a trip when conceived.

Is it possible?

[sighs]

It's not. They're fucking lovebirds.

Then has the father abused the child?

If he were abusing her, why would I call you?

I would just call the cops.

Well,

in this situation, your best scenario won't be a lawsuit.

It's the mother getting a divorce.

Child custody would be a whole different matter.

A divorce?

[Hyeon-nam] I went over to the shaman's shop,

but I haven't found anything worthwhile yet.

After I visit a few more times, I'll get you more info.

Also…

So are you about to pull out more eggs?

Oh, not at all!

Hey look, what's that?

So, that rental car?

I think we may actually have something.

[mischievous, dramatic music playing]

After I followed them from the storage lockers,

they drove down the expressway for what felt like forever.

But then, they finally stopped at a motel.

And just as I started to wonder if I should just drive back,

guess who appeared?

Yeah. That's the cop who goes to the shaman's with Yeon-jin's mom.

They're all working together.

That's huge, right?

Wow, even now, I'm still not scared.

[chuckles] It's been getting me thinking,

If I ever happen to get reborn,

I want to be a spy.

And then I would wear red lipstick and a cool jacket, too.

If you want, you could put on red lipstick in this lifetime, too.

-[laughs] Oh, you think? -But regarding Son Myeong-o,

I don't think he just went missing.

Oh, me wear red lipstick? [laughs]

Wait, you don't think he went missing?

Do you think Son Myeong-o…

That he actually… was murdered?

Those people might be Park Yeon-jin's hired thugs

who work outside the law.

Park Yeon-jin doesn't have an in with the police.

Rather, it's that they rely on her influence.

Hold on, wait. "Outside the law." Do you mean that…

Yeah. Son Myeong-o disappeared because of them.

Myeong-o went off on his own because he didn't trust me,

and since he bought a plane ticket…

that means he must have met with Yeon-jin.

Then he disappeared.

[gasps]

So what should we do now?

What did you really want from that Son Myeong-o, ma'am?

[sighs]

But now we're together in the same boat.

Which one of those four killed So-hee?

[mysterious music playing]

Park Yeong-jin.

Yes!

Hold on…

I'm sure Yeon-jin already knows she's at that hospital.

Do you have proof? How can you prove she did it?

So-hee has this tag in her hand when she fell that day.

PARK YEON-JIN

How do you have this thing?

That day, you there, huh?

And now, you were there with me.

Because we're in this together, right?

Wow.

Wow, fuck yeah!

[muffled laughter]

This is crazy.

Hey, so, a billion won?

Call me when you arrange a meeting with Park Yeon-jin.

And on that day, I'll give you the name tag.

Not matter the price you give, that money will be all yours.

I want something else.

What do you want? Tell me now.

Yeon-jin's confession.

If it worked and Myeong-o got the money,

that would've been it.

He told me that he would record every single step for me.

Didn't you say that it was declared as a suicide?

Do you think it could change things?

And that's why I wanted to make her an outcast.

I wouldn't have the legal advantage.

I thought I'd let the world know

exactly what she did by hearing her confession.

I want her to burn for the rest of eternity,

oozing pus from her wounds.

She'd never be able to laugh, and she'd never have peace again.

But can you even get Park Yeon-jin's confession at this point?

It's not like we can go looking for Myeong-o's body.

So what now?

[sighs]

We'll have to find him first.

But how?

Please keep still.

[breathes shakily]

What exactly will this exam tell me?

[doctor] It's a 12-panel STD test, so it will catch most things.

An HPV test was also added here,

so you can be better-informed.

Nothing else, though?

That's all that'll show, right?

Here are the documents you requested.

My family's genealogy map, my college transcripts,

my OB-GYN exam.

You could've emailed this.

Nobody carries paper copies anymore.

That's fine. I'll look at these later.

-What bank do you primarily use? -Sorry?

There's no way that I'll be able to stand

looking at a bank account with so many zeros.

Just give me the name.

I'll take care of the rest.

[gasps] Is that Ms. Moon?

[laughs] Ms. Moon, dear!

Oh! It's so great to see you!

How long's it been?

You're even prettier now!

Choi Hye-jeong?

[mysterious music playing]

You know each other? This is my son's girlfriend.

Ah, the two of us went to school together.

-Ah. -[Dong-eun sighs]

I guess I shouldn't make her jealous 'cause I'm friends with you.

No! What are you saying?

What she does has nothing at all to do with you.

Don't make me cry, dear.

We're getting dinner ready over at the temple.

If you're available, Ms. Moon, you should come join us.

I'm sorry, I have plans later.

So you're getting married?

Congrats.

The next time I visit, I'll try to be here earlier, okay?

Okay, that sounds good. I'll see you.

I really wish she was Tae-uk's wife.

Ugh, I'm stuck with this brat!

How come you didn't go and say hello, hmm?

Ms. Moon looked very happy to see you.

I just wasn't expecting her. We weren't really that close.

I'm sorry. Just a moment.

Hey, Dong-eun!

I'm so sorry we didn't get a chance to talk back there.

[chuckles] It's too funny, running into you out here.

Great seeing you.

Can we talk real quick? Huh?

Okay.

What the hell have you been doing?

Why won't you pick up your phone?

You have any idea how many times I called?

Seventeen times.

By the way, Yeon-jin,

isn't there something you'd like to tell me?

Like what?

Why were you and Do-yeong together?

-You really have nothing to tell me? -Don't change the subject!

Who arranged the meeting first? You or Do-yeong?

[wry chuckle]

I didn't ask him to see me.

Your Do-yeong came to me first asking where the fuck Myeong-o was,

so answer me right now!

You really have nothing to say to me?

To you?

Like how Dong-eun is Ye-sol's teacher?

[chuckles]

So, I didn't know that. I'm looking for something else.

Then say it, would you?

Just tell me exactly what I'm--

[choking]

Are you crazy?!

No.

You're who's crazy.

How dare you raise my daughter as Do-yeong's?

Answer me this.

Did you find out she was mine after you gave birth?

Or you already knew she was Jeon Ye-sol, not Ha Ye-Sol?

Honestly, I'm just curious.

I just want to know why you stayed married even though you had my daughter,

why you abandoned me,

if you knew the truth.

Did…

you ever love me?

[wails]

If I burst a blood vein, I can't go on TV!

[overlapping chatter]

[man] Hi, honey! You having fun? That looks great.

[man 2] Seo-u! Seo-u.

Seeing each other a lot. [laughs] We'll be friends pretty soon.

Why are you here?

Turns out I have a secret love child.

[laughs]

I'm just kidding.

Just came to see a friend.

I'm not here for you.

[dramatic, suspenseful music playing]

It's nice to meet you all.

I'm the homeroom teacher, Ms. Moon Dong-eun.

[applause]

[Jae-jun] We went to the same high school.

Moon Dong-eun. The homeroom teacher.

I heard Yeon-jin went to the same high school as you.

Yeon-jin told you that?

Those two weren't friends.

But I'm guessing she was friends with you?

[chuckles]

Well, you might even say we could see each other's true side.

I know everything about her.

Huh. Even what she looks like under her clothes.

Hey, I've been so curious about something.

Have you

ever had something taken from you?

[Dong-eun] Now, let's begin class for the day.

[dramatic music continuing]
