Original subtitles

Hello, ma'am.

-Hello, ma'am! -Hello, ma'am!

Okay. Hurry along.

-Yes, ma'am. -Enjoy your lunch.

Thank you!

But, Yeo-jeong,

I'm not looking for a prince.

What I need is not a prince

but a headsman who will join me in the sword dance.

Here's your drink and salad.

Thanks.

GYODAE CAFE

This fellow must be crazy, ordering the director around.

Wasn't it nice walking through the park though?

-Is this your lunch? -It's breakfast.

God, you're breaking my heart.

-No matter how busy you are... -I'm on a diet.

I'll lose four more kilograms so I can wear a bikini

when I go to Guam for Christmas.

-Good luck. -Thanks.

Mom, I've made my decision.

-About what? -I'm not gonna be a professor.

That's fair.

-I'm going to open my own practice. -That's great too.

But did you just make that decision?

I decided quite a while ago.

But I just made the decision to tell you about it.

LETTER OF RESIGNATION

-So you're serious. -I'm serious.

Do it, then.

I'm just happy that you didn't decide to stay in the military forever.

This is decent compared to that.

Where are you thinking? Apgujeong? Cheongdam?

No, Semyeong.

Someone I'm interested in lives in Semyeong.

Are you dating?

I haven't gotten that far yet.

Do you know that type of person?

She's so calm like she's underwater

but makes me feel like I'm in the eye of a storm.

-Is she a fisher? -It's a metaphor!

You aren't doing it to make money

or to help out a medically underprivileged area,

but for a girl?

Hey, did you write that in here too?

Jeez. I'll write a new one, Mother!

My goodness, you're so embarrassing!

You sure you're on diet?

Once, I believed in all the gods of this world.

I kneeled and prayed in front of all those gods who abandoned me,

as if I were an incurable patient roaming the country with a sliver of hope.

I wonder where you are right now and what you're praying for.

Sew this into Ye-sol's bag where she can't find it.

Do it yourself so that nobody else touches it.

Thanks, Mom.

Did you just find out

that the bitch was appointed as Ye-sol's new homeroom teacher?

You're so incompetent.

You should go home for now.

I'll take care of this.

Whose son-in-law was in the policy office of the Ministry of Education?

Oh, don't do it.

What if you provoke her

and that bitch starts telling people about it?

What if everybody finds out?

I'm scared, Mom!

What's so scary about a nobody like her?

Not her. Ye-sol! I'm scared of Ye-sol.

If everybody finds out, Ye-sol will too.

She might not know now, but what if she grows up and finds out?

I'm so scared of that happening.

Yeon-jin.

Look at me.

I told you before

to never look back.

You'll never find a solution in the past.

It'll always be in front of you.

That's just what life is like.

Do you understand?

OCTOBER 31ST - NOVEMBER 6TH FLIGHT SCHEDULE

I eventually realized

that God doesn't exist. God just pretends to exist.

So you should be praying to me, Yeon-jin.

Because your salvation is up to me.

Wow, he's handsome.

Is he your boyfriend? He's young.

-Get us some coffee, Mr. Kang. -What?

Oh, sure.

I'm fine.

No, I don't mind.

That's exactly your problem. You don't get it until you're told.

Do you have something to say to me?

No, not at all.

I know that you're a great teacher.

I just want to share a cup of coffee.

MS. KANG

Please call me, ma'am. It's urgent.

Is your boyfriend good to you?

I bet he is.

I don't know why, but I just assumed that you'd be into older men.

Oh, are you two-timing?

Just kidding.

-Do you have a girlfriend? -Oh, do I look like I do?

No, you don't.

Why?

Hasn't anybody told you?

I won't say anything either, then.

We're basically strangers.

I guess you're the type to

say things that piss people off.

You make others uncomfortable with your words.

What?

Seriously, Ms. Moon.

You should be thankful that you're a woman.

If you were a man, I'd smack you, you know that?

Oh, really?

You look like a guy who only fights women.

Just kidding too!

You sounded cute before, so I wanted to try it too.

I'm not sure where Son Myeong-o is.

I would often lose him because he rides a motorcycle.

Then he'd usually show up at his house after two days or so.

But since that day, he hasn't been home or gone to the golf club.

So, you last saw him at this travel agency?

Yeah.

Maybe he got paid a ton of money and went over to their side?

If he got the plane ticket that day

and left the country the very next day, it makes sense!

I'll check out the travel agency.

Let's wait until the weekend and see what happens.

Okay.

Unless he's dead,

it's not our goal to find out about Son Myeong-o's disappearance.

Dead?

Wait, murdered?

I mean...

You're saying that he might already be dead?

It's a possibility.

-I'll contact you. -Wait.

Did...

By any chance...

did you...?

Are you asking if I did that to Son Myeong-o?

If you did, by any chance,

then I should know about it, so I can prepare for whatever happens...

No.

Even if I did do it, you don't need to know about it.

What?

The deal that we made is a very simple one.

You do what I ask you to do, and I do what you ask me to do.

That's all we do for each other.

We've gotten too close, Ms. Kang.

Dad's home, Louis.

Dad hasn't been home in so long, I know.

I'm sorry.

What?

Louis!

Damn.

Why are you acting like that? Huh?

Daddy just apologized, didn't he?

I get that you're mad at me for not coming home...

What is that?

Damn.

What the hell?

You fucker, where the hell are you?

So, the fucker was right here, huh?

That fucking dog must be mad.

No, not you.

By the way, Louis.

What were you doing then?

Did you bite him or not?

If you just sat there and watched it happen, damn it,

I'd be disappointed.

SCHOOL VIOLENCE

NO POSTS FOUND

She's a weathercaster, but she can't even write her scripts.

Even newbies write their own scripts.

Jaepyeong is running another commercial.

Su-mi?

Oh, did you hear that?

You were pretty loud.

They say that truth sounds louder, Yeon-jin.

Am I watching The Newsroom right now?

Su-mi.

You should really listen to the stylist.

She said that my husband is running a commercial again.

Don't you know what that means?

This broadcasting station pays me only 2,2 million won a month,

but my husband spends 220 million won for this place.

Oh, you're young?

How long does that last?

Will you be young next year? The year after that?

You're asking for it...

No matter how much collagen you shove in your mouth or slap on your face,

you'll never be able to take my place.

You young little bitch.

So, Su-mi,

don't tempt me to get your contract canceled just for fun.

Please enjoy.

What about Dong-eun?

You still got nothing?

Looking up someone's private information is not as easy as you might think.

To pull up the information, I need to slip it into some other case.

JAE-JUN

If it were easy, I'd have done it myself.

The world has changed, Yeon-jin.

It's different from 18 years ago.

That's why I'm not paying you the amount I did 18 years ago.

I heard you bought a motel under your younger sister's name.

Do you get a lot of guests?

Thanks for your concern.

I was trying to be condescending.

I've put some men on it. I'll let you know when I get something.

By the way, you seem way too busy nowadays.

Thanks for your concern.

LAND TOUR

I checked Son Myeong-o's ticket.

He bought a one-way ticket to Vladivostok, but nothing else.

But he didn't board the flight for this one-way ticket either.

I also checked the hotel he booked, but he never checked in.

So he definitely didn't leave the country.

Right.

Why are you asking about him? Is something wrong?

Yeah.

But I'm not sure if he's just missing, or if he's met a sudden death.

You have a lot of black clothes, Dong-eun.

Yeah, I do.

I guess Myeong-o has snapped, then.

Well, SD cards are expendable anyway.

Is it time for me to find a real butterfly that will flap its wings for me?

A silk-winged butterfly that will brew up a hurricane.

I know just the one, Yeon-jin.

The wires are all done! Lighting them up now!

SEMYEONG GO PARK

We thank you on behalf of the city.

Thank you for staying here so late, Mr. Ha.

I would call it early, not late.

Oh, that's true.

Great work.

I'm going to look around a bit more to remember this moment.

Sure. Well, then.

Fuck, Myeong-o!

I'm out of ice and dope!

Where are you? Let's meet. Want to come to my place?

You want to see me alone? Why?

Come on and read my text. Read it already!

Which ring looks better?

The son of a bitch skipped work again. He stole my clothes and watches.

Pick one from one, two, and three.

My God, really? Which watch?

Hey, I paid you in advance.

I don't care if you fucked up over the phone. Business is business.

Would you like to see another design?

Big stones can be a bit uncomfortable when you wear them.

No.

I told you I like big ones.

I like everything big.

Tae-uk!

You said you'd be late. Why are you so early?

They're all so pretty. I haven't picked one out yet.

Give us five minutes.

Hey, didn't I tell you to wear high heels when you see me?

I like it when you look tall!

Even if you wear those, I won't be taller than you.

How will this work if you can't accept my height?

My legs are hurting because of my flight yesterday.

I'll wear heels next time.

There won't be a proposal.

You said all you want is a bigger stone than your friend.

There. That's the biggest one.

Wow, really?

Oh my God. It's bigger! I love it!

Oh, also,

Mom wanted me to tell you this.

My mom likes temple food, so don't say you want to eat meat, okay?

I know!

I don't like meat that much, either.

INCOMING CALL MS. KANG

You need to change directions!

There's a car following you!

What are you doing here?

That's not important right now!

Gosh, I've been doing this every day.

I should've known that they might follow us too!

Anyway, I'll try to lose them somehow.

No, leave it to me. You shouldn't expose yourself.

Do you have a death wish? That's not the way to stop a car!

I'm sorry. Are you hurt?

Oh, my neck! My back! What are you going to do about this?

We're busy men.

Either call the cops or pay me in cash. Make your choice.

I think you've given me the wrong choices.

You normally call your insurance company, not the police.

If it's rented, you call the rental company.

Fuck, aren't you a smart one?

This rental car is fucking dear to me!

If you smashed a busy man's car,

you should either be calling the cops or handing me some cash.

But now I have a smashed car, and I'm getting scolded on the streets.

What the hell is this?

Since we're both busy, let's go with cash.

-Tell me your bank account number. -That's a transfer, not cash.

Give me your phone number.

When I call you, bring cash.

Are you hurt anywhere? Let me see.

Aren't you supposed to be following Jeon Jae-jun today?

So, why were you behind me?

Why were you following me?

Oh, why would I follow...

Are you suspecting me right now?

I'm just being careful.

Aren't you nervous?

I could go to your husband and tell him that you asked me to kill him.

I could just tell him everything.

I'm sure you've thought about that.

Jeon Jae-jun was in front of your school.

He left after watching Ye-sol for a bit.

And I just happened to be there while I was following him.

That's when I saw you.

I was glad to see you. Then I saw the car.

I guess that I could

worry about all that.

But I wasn't thinking that way. I just don't think of anything else.

I'm busy enough with the camera and driving.

Get out of the car.

Jae-jun is a regular at a restaurant inside Mangwon Market.

I found some Haenam cabbages there.

Eat it right away.

It's been in the car, so it's ripened already.

And, ma'am,

I could spill your secrets to a lot more people than you could mine.

Park Yeon-jin, Jeon Jae-jun, Lee Sa-ra.

I was just

happy while buying the cabbages.

Because I started to dream after I met you.

The dream of having dinner with Sun-a...

Not a dinner where you just scarf down your food.

A proper dinner where we can eat jjigae and fried eggs

as slowly as we want.

A dinner like that is my dream.

I get so happy just thinking about it.

So you have been thinking about other things.

Ah, you're right.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Oh, why am I always like this?

Because you're a good person.

I made a mistake today.

I'll make sure that your dream comes true.

Thank you for the kimchi, but I won't take it.

"Ma'am" and "Ms. Kang." That's what we call each other.

What better way to call a person who has been plotting deaths with me?

DOAMSA

Yeon-jin, we are well aware

of the darkness that we've conspired to unleash.

We know how dark the end of it will be.

This device is switched off. Please leave...

Is Yeon-jin not picking up?

Myeong-o's not answering, either.

Maybe they're together.

She might be sleeping with other guys too.

Watch your fucking mouth, will you?

I mean, neither of them are picking up their phones.

-I'm just saying. -Hye-jeong.

If you want to be a bitch, do it right.

That's how you become a successful bitch.

Right now, you're sloppy.

I'm leaving. I have a flight tomorrow.

That kid.

Yeon-jin's daughter.

-Ye-sol. -What about her?

Aren't those Yeon-jin's heels?

I bought them when I had a flight to London.

I didn't know Yeon-jin had them too. What about Ye-sol?

Do you know when her birthday is?

Ye-sol's birthday?

Do you know it or not?

I don't know her birthday,

but I remember Yeon-jin's mom setting a date when she got pregnant,

telling her to give birth before Chuseok so that it brings the baby wealth.

Why do you want to know?

I'm wondering if she's my daughter.

You must be mad!

When the summer sun doesn't sink below the horizon,

making nights look as bright as day, it's called the white night.

That's right. Nights become bright as day, right?

Did you know that when these white nights occur,

people on the opposite hemisphere must endure the polar night?

It'd be so stressful if nights lasted that long.

The opposite of white night is called "polar night," not "dark night,"

because these nights are so long like the polar opposite of white night.

Were your nights for the past week white nights or polar nights?

I hope you'll wisely weather the tough times you face this week.

I'm Park Yeon-jin.

Hwang Kwang-hee's Shine or Go Crazy. We have with us here Park Yeon-jin,

the big sister of all weathercasters and the queen of awesome comments.

We'll be back after the commercials.

This place has a high ceiling,

and the skylight lets in plenty of sunlight.

It looks even better at night.

Looks great. I'll take this one, then.

It's newly built and near a station, so it's nice, both day and night.

You've got a yoga studio downstairs and a gym upstairs.

Apparently, people who work out there get hurt really often.

The perfect spot for a private practice.

What kind of doctor are you? It'd be great if you're an orthopedist.

I'm a plastic surgeon.

Even better!

Working out will make people want to get double-eyelid surgery.

This is nice. I'll take it.

-Are you really a doctor? -Sorry?

You seem so decisive, almost like a scammer.

You're fresh-faced too.

Oh, man.

I don't want to sound like I'm bragging,

but my nickname is Sunkist.

People don't believe that a doctor has a face like this,

so I can't even say that I graduated early from a science high school

and that I'm a member of Mensa.

I like it better when you aren't talking.

Here's your schedule for next week and the mail.

An express delivery package is on the very top.

Express delivery?

SON MYEONG-O

PLATINUM CC SON MYEONG-O

The person you're trying to reach is not available. Please leave...

Who's here?

It's been a while.

About three years, right?

I last saw you at the opening party for your father-in-law's office, so yes.

Doesn't look like you're here to play.

I'm very curious as to what brought you.

I can't reach Mr. Son Myeong-o.

Where is he right now?

Wow. So, you're looking for him too?

I can't reach that asshole either.

Why are you looking for him?

-Want a cigarette? -I don't smoke.

Are there other ways of reaching him?

You still haven't told me why you're looking for him.

It's something I have to discuss with him.

Please tell me his address, names of family members, or anything.

Did you receive something too?

Oh, you did.

What did you get? How is the bastard threatening you?

What did you get from him?

This conversation won't go anywhere.

How about we let each other know when we find him?

Don't you think you'll find him first?

He's your friend, after all.

He's not my friend.

I just used him, that's all.

Well, then. I have some matters to take care of.

This device is switched off. Please leave a message.

Myeong-o, you fucking son of a bitch.

It turns out that I'm not the only one you sent stuff to and blackmailed.

But what do you have to use to threaten Ha Do-yeong?

Is it a woman?

Or a girl?

If Ye-sol is the reason Do-yeong and I are lumped together...

I'm going to kill you, you fucking asshole.

Hey, what is this?

It's so pretty.

Oh, why?

Did you really win? Wow, you're pretty good!

Play a match with me.

Yeah, come on.

That's so cool.

This is what Go is about.

I should post this online.

You can check the bumper,

go to the office to pay, and pick up your key.

-Thank you. -Sure.

I've been thinking. We haven't properly ended our match.

We need to count our points.

What's going on?

Are you okay? What's wrong?

Excuse me?

Are you okay?

What's wrong?

Come inside, quick.

What happened? Are you feeling sick?

Just come in first.

I don't have all of my furniture yet.

Hold on, I'll get you water. Sit here.

What is this place?

What's going on? Did I contact you at a bad time?

Did you move?

A friend who opened a practice here was making a ton of money,

so I quit and came here too.

Well, at least, that's what I was planning on saying.

I messed up, right?

You want to count points?

I don't want to lose without even knowing why.

I thought you'd come if I said that.

How clever.

You asked me before about where I'm headed

and why I'm doing all of this.

It's a very long story...

and there's nothing pleasant about it.

Would you like to hear it?

Out of white nights and polar nights,

my entire life has been white nights.

It's always been bright.

Well, of course.

Why are you saying that?

Wow!

Are you going to a party?

Your mother's going to work.

She's going to a super famous fashion awards ceremony.

Wow, that's so cool!

I can't wait to be like Mom too.

I'm going to wear those necklaces

and pretty dresses too.

Mom, I want to try this one. It's pretty.

Ta-da!

Oh, it's heavy.

Expensive jewelry, watches,

handbags, and cars

are all heavy.

And expensive coats, dresses, and heels

are all light.

Okay?

Okay!

Don't worry, Ye-sol.

I'm not going to sink below the horizon.

No matter what.

TEST RESULTS NAME: JEON JAE-JUN

PROBABILITY OF PATERNITY: 99,999%

No wonder.

So that's why she's so damn pretty.

Shit.

HA YE-SOL

Hye-jeong, hello.

Hey.

Someone from Information was here earlier.

-Did they find my phone? -I don't think it's a phone.

It's quite thin. An express delivery for you.

Express?

So, right now,

I'm betting my entire life on revenge.

And you're not going to stop?

You're a better person than them, Dong-eun.

I don't plan on being a better person.

I'm becoming worse every day.

Once your revenge is over,

your world will also be in ruins.

I'm jealous of you, Yeo-jeong.

Your childhood must've been like a box of chocolates.

Now you've grown up to be a good, happy adult.

You say something so naive, yet you have no trouble living your life.

You've seen my scars before, right?

Can you heal them?

How long has it been?

You're making a face like that

after only seeing one arm?

And yet,

you want me to stop?

It felt like a white night,

and sometimes, it felt like a polar night too.

Did they do this...

to you?

Those bastards?

I'm already in complete ruins, with no dignity left.

So, go back.

I'd like to stay faithful to my rage and vice.

I'll do it.

I'll be your headsman.

I'll join the sword dance.

Tell me. What do you want me to do first?

How do you want me to do it?

Who do you want me...

to kill first?
