SHIN YOON-BOK

Is everything okay, Yoon-bok?

Call me.

EPISODE 15 DECISION TO LEAVE

How's the patient?

The surgery went well,

but we'll have to see if he'll regain consciousness.

Please excuse me.

BASED ON THE WEBTOON DARE TO LOVE ME BY SUN WOO

What if...

Jun-ho doesn't wake up?

If that happens,

I won't be able to forgive myself.

Do not worry.

He will wake up soon.

Shouldn't we tell Grandfather and Lady Yeoju?

I shall go and inform them.

Okay, I'll stay here.

Let me know immediately if anything happens.

NEW MESSAGE AND MISSED CALLS: MASTER KIM

Is everything okay, Yoon-bok?

Call me.

Master.

I am sorry I forgot to contact you first.

Jun-ho got into an accident so things were a bit hectic.

"Accident"?

Yes.

I see.

Well, I'm all right. I didn't wait that much.

Is everything okay with you?

Yes, I am fine.

You should go rest.

You must be exhausted.

All right.

What happened to Jun-ho?

Who on earth would do that to him?

The police are looking for the suspect.

But on that day,

it seemed Jun-ho had something to tell me.

The keychain you had

was in my father's possession

until he passed away.

If you were...

That has nothing to do with me.

Jun-ho told me he would meet with you just once.

I wonder

if the attack has something to do with

what he wanted to tell me.

Are you suggesting someone did that to him

to silence him?

It seems there is someone pulling the strings behind Jun-ho.

Just when I thought all problems were solved...

With the fashion show drawing close,

I am concerned the village will come to harm again.

We cannot send them home after all the work that has been put in.

We must enhance security

and wait for Jun-ho to regain consciousness.

How is Lady Yeoju?

Ma'am.

Lady Yi-bok.

What happened?

Goodness, my Jun-ho...

Jun-ho.

Oh, Jun-ho.

He'll be okay.

I'll wait with you.

If someone else is behind all this,

who could it be?

Was it them who gave Jun-ho

the keychain?

WOORIM

Lord Shin.

Did you call for me?

Enhance security in preparation for the upcoming event.

And pay careful attention so the past does not get repeated.

Yes, my lord.

How flawless.

This is why I love fashion.

Two distinct cultures can come together and create art.

It's like when Shin Su-keun

showed up in Paris wearing a robe and holding a baguette.

That's what this feels like.

What was Mr. Shin like in Paris?

He was great.

We went to great places together.

He was my dearest lover and best friend.

Until a letter arrived from Seongsan Village, that is.

A letter?

It said for him to return to the village.

I thought we'd last forever,

but he couldn't give up on his village.

And I couldn't give up on my dreams.

That's why we broke up.

You must be worried about Yoon-bok.

"The lovers went their separate ways for each other's future."

That's what happened in the olden days.

You should proudly make choices for yourself.

Only then can you gain what you really want.

I thought we'd last forever,

but he couldn't give up on his village.

And I couldn't give up on my dreams.

That's why we broke up.

Are you free?

Come in.

Did you want to see me?

Yeah, I wanted you to come in for a fitting.

Is this your work, Master?

Yeah.

It looks amazing.

Why don't you try it on?

Okay.

YI-BOK

Yes, Yi-bok.

How is Jun-ho?

He's still unconscious.

Has the suspect been identified?

He's a new prison guard but his whereabouts are unknown.

It seems he received orders from someone to commit the crime.

I believe someone else is pulling the strings behind Jun-ho.

We can only wait until he regains his consciousness.

All right.

Master.

Yeah.

It looks good on you.

How does it fit? Is it comfortable?

Yes, very much so.

Stay right there.

Who could have ordered someone

to do such a brutal thing to Jun-ho?

And what did Jun-ho

want to say to me?

There we go.

Yoon-bok.

Oh, are you finished?

Yeah.

HERE IS THE GUIDE TO APPLY FOR FRANCE'S TALENT PASSPORT

Oh, this.

The fashion show's happening soon and we're leaving right after.

Things have been hectic for you, haven't they?

Having stayed in the village

for some time...

I realize how important you are to the village.

Yes.

You are right.

To be honest,

there are many things

I must do here.

Regardless,

I promised that I would stay by your side no matter what.

I will take care of everything before we go.

Still...

Please do not worry.

If I am to go with Master Kim,

there are many things I must settle immediately.

SEONGSAN

SEONGSAN VILLAGE'S PATH FORWARD

What is this?

SEONGSAN VILLAGE'S PATH FORWARD

Enhancing security.

Opening up the village.

Enhancing education.

Cultural exchange.

I have written down what I would like to do for the villagers.

I shall take a look and think about it.

And starting tomorrow, I will rejoin the investigation team.

What did you say?

I must help catch whoever harmed Jun-ho.

Hong-do Kim.

This is the program for the fashion show.

Hand it to Shin Su-keun.

Yes, ma'am.

I already said no!

Leave that matter to the police.

I do not have time to wait.

Once the fashion show is over,

I will accompany Master Kim to France.

With all due respect, I have already made my decision.

I have no desire

to force you to obey my wishes.

I will respect your choices.

However, you are after a very dangerous and cruel individual.

If you act too rashly,

you may hurt yourself.

That is why I seek to catch him.

I cannot leave

being constantly worried that they might harm...

you and the village.

-That is for me to handle. -Grandfather.

You should leave.

Can I ask what your plans are for the future?

Well,

I am not sure what I will do.

But whatever I do, I will stay by your side.

Even if I must travel

halfway across the world.

Really?

Things have been hectic for you, haven't they?

Having stayed in the village

for some time,

I realize how important you are to the village.

I wish I could forget everything

and simply leave with Master Kim.

But the village is weighing on my mind.

What must I do?

HERE IS THE GUIDE TO APPLY FOR FRANCE'S TALENT PASSPORT

Oh, this.

The fashion show's happening soon and we're leaving right after.

I cannot leave

being constantly worried that they might harm

you and the village.

The program for the fashion show is ready.

Here.

SEONGSAN VILLAGE'S PATH FORWARD

Is leaving with Yoon-bok the right thing to do?

You should proudly make choices for yourself.

Only then can you gain what you really want.

Master.

Yoon-bok.

What brings you out here?

I was just

on a walk.

The view is especially pretty tonight.

Yes, it is very beautiful.

Yoon-bok.

Yes?

Seongsan Village...

is such a beautiful place.

The people here are also very warm,

just like you.

Though protecting tradition

and living in such a way may be uncomfortable,

the people have adapted with pride

and lived honestly.

In that case...

I guess it should be taken care of and protected even more.

The village is a precious heritage that must be constantly preserved.

Yoon-bok.

I'll go to Paris alone.

Sorry?

You should stay here.

What do you mean?

Stay and fulfill your duties to this precious village.

How could I...

No, I cannot obey your wishes.

You know better than anyone

that you need to stay here.

Can you really ignore and abandon everything here?

And even if you can,

do you think you'll be happy?

However,

nothing is more precious to me

than you.

And I never...

want to lose

a loved one again.

Listen, Yoon-bok.

I'll be fine without you.

But this village needs you.

I'll only feel at ease if you stay here.

Yoon-bok.

Thank you so much

for taking care of me all this time.

Can you really ignore and abandon everything here?

And even if you can, do you think you'll be happy?

Master.

Master.

CULTURAL HERITAGE ADMINISTRATION

The day has finally come.

Have preparations gone well?

Of course, I'm Camille.

I get to host a fashion show somewhere nice thanks to my ex,

so I feel pretty good.

Thank you.

My pleasure.

Will you leave right away

once the show is over?

I suppose.

It feels a little bittersweet to leave.

I think I've fallen in love with the village.

Having been here,

I now understand why you wanted to protect this place so much.

Though time has passed and I am much older now...

it still hurts my heart

to let someone so dear to me go.

Do your parts

and make sure to put safety first.

Let's do this.

-Yes! -Yes!

Come on.

One, two, three.

-Let's go! -Let's go!

Hong-do.

Did you not get any sleep at all?

Your eyes seem quite puffy.

Wait.

I know you're too busy to eat,

so have this if you get low on sugar.

You don't have to do this.

Stop meddling in my life.

Hong-do,

I'm willing to do anything...

for you.

CELEBRATING THE RETURN OF CULTURAL ASSETS

Oh my gosh, Reporter Kim!

You're here early.

-You look great. -Thank you.

You got this.

Look who it is!

CELEBRATING THE RETURN OF CULTURAL ASSETS

-Hello. -Hello.

How are things going?

Emphasize her jawline and color her lips naturally.

Yes, ma'am.

Make sure the outfits are hung up in order and that they fit the models well.

-Okay. -Okay.

I'll only feel at ease if you stay here.

Yoon-bok.

Thank you so much

for taking care of me all this time.

Sir.

Goodness.

Young Master.

Why are you here and not at the fashion show?

I'll head over a bit later.

You should go ahead.

Do you know if Master Kim...

She left a while ago.

I see.

Then I shall see you there.

Very well.

WOORIM

CELEBRATING THE RETURN OF CULTURAL ASSETS

It is an honor for me to be present at this fashion show

celebrating the return of cultural assets right here in Seongsan Village.

I offer my sincere gratitude to the French government and the Embassy

for agreeing to the historic return of cultural assets back to our nation.

Are you a model? This way, please.

Right.

This must be your first time.

Please don't move while I do your makeup.

AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ONLY

WOORIM

Who are you?

Get him!

-You're done. -Thank you.

Young Master!

What is the matter?

He went this way.

You two, check inside. You two, check upstairs.

WOORIM

Who are you?

Oh, Administrator Lee.

What are you doing here?

Kim Hong-do?

That keychain...

I remember seeing that here as a child.

WOORIM

WOORIM

That was you?

Administrator Lee?

Yoon-bok, have you seen Hong-do?

She has been abducted.

Please inform Grandfather immediately.

Abducted?

SHIN YOON-BOK

Damn it.

What do you think you are doing?

I guess you saw my face.

What are you thinking?

If only that bastard Jun-ho did his job properly...

Anyway,

bring me the jade box from the storage if you want your girlfriend alive.

How dare you?

If anything happens to Master Kim,

I will make you pay.

Shut up and listen to me.

You know what'll happen if you go to the media or the police.

You'll never see Kim Hong-do alive again.

Get the jade box and wait for my call.

SHIN YOON-BOK

What do you mean she has been abducted?

That's all he told me.

Shouldn't we call the police?

We must first wait for Yoon-bok to explain the situation.

Excuse me.

What did you just say?

Hong-do has been abducted?

What on earth is going on?

SHIN YOON-BOK

What happened?

Administrator Lee is the mastermind behind Jun-ho.

Administrator Lee?

How could he...

He demanded the jade box in the storage.

He threatened to harm Master Kim if I go to the media or the police,

so I will look for him myself first.

Please ensure the fashion show goes smoothly

to prevent any news from leaking.

Understood.

Administrator Lee Beom-kyo?

Why would he do that to Hong-do Kim?

He has played us for fools

this entire time.

I already told you Administrator Lee is on leave!

Did he tell you where he is going?

You shouldn't be doing this.

What is his home address?

Lee Beom-kyo!

No one lives there anymore!

I haven't seen its residents for quite a while now.

There is something I have not yet told her.

I should have

told her.

Let me out!

Let me out, you bastards!

Someone help me!

Bring the jade box to Incheon by midnight.

Don't pull any tricks, or else.

YOON-BOK

You need what?

-The keychain? -Please help me.

Are you asking me...

to steal evidence?

To tell you the truth,

Master Kim has been abducted.

What? Then report it to...

He will harm her if I go to the media or the police.

Is there any other way I can help?

I wish we could ask Jun-ho.

But as of right now,

giving him the jade box seems to be the best course of action.

Yi-bok.

Thank you, Yi-bok.

Go save Hong-do.

Where is Camille's new face, Designer Kim Hong-do?

It's no fun if we reveal everything all at once.

Hong-do Kim will make a spectacular appearance in Paris,

so come see her then if you'd like.

-All right then. -That's all for tonight, everybody.

Thank you all for coming.

See you at our next show.

Goodbye.

I am so sorry, sir.

It's all my fault.

What do you mean?

To tell you the truth...

Take all the time you need and have a good time with your son.

And don't cry too much.

CIVIL AFFAIRS OFFICE

Oh, good.

I should cheer Lady Yeoju up here.

What are you doing?

Help me!

Please spare my life.

Please spare me!

Please spare me. I'm sorry.

He told me to steal the keychain

if I wanted to save my daughter's life.

I've been such a lousy father to this day.

So to save her just this once,

I've made a foolish decision.

I had no idea

she'd end up like this.

I'm so sorry, sir.

How could I not empathize with a parent like myself?

However,

saving your daughter is the first priority.

Do you recall anything?

Perhaps the car they took you in or where they took you.

They put a hood over me to keep me from finding out.

I'm sorry, sir.

-Grandfather. -Any news?

Please give me the jade box.

I ask you sincerely.

I know this is shameless of me,

but please bring my daughter back.

Do not worry.

Oh my.

What's going on with Jun-ho?

Jun-ho!

Ma'am?

Goodness.

Lady Yi-bok.

I think Jun-ho woke up.

Jun-ho.

Are you okay?

Come to the Port of Incheon.

YI-BOK

Young Master.

As expected, he didn't show up himself.

And Master Kim wasn't there either.

Good work.

YI-BOK

Yes, Yi-bok?

It's me, Jun-ho.

I know where his hideout is.

That little bastard!

It seems Shin Yoon-bok doesn't want you back alive.

Where is Master Kim?

Every single one of you...

will pay for what you have done.

What are you doing?

Don't resent me.

Someone please help me!

Making a mountain out of a molehill runs in that family.

Yoon-bok!
