- (1985)
- Let's go.

- Rookie, wrap it up.
- Yes, sir.

Detective.

I'm sorry, but can I have some water?

I'm so thirsty.

"Night rain falling on
Youngdong Bridge."

"I say I should forget, but..."

Why are you getting up?

Goodness, our rookie must
be on cloud nine today!

His father-in-law Im In-kwan
is managed by the VIP up there.

Once this whole ordeal
with One Family Welfare

Center is over,
he'll soon be on his way up.

Thank you.

- Are you done?
- Yes, thank you.

Sir.

Can you tell me your name?

- Why do you want to know?
- Because...

you saved my life.

Don't say that.

Hyung-in.

My name is Choi Hyung-in.

Thank you for telling me.

Thank you, Detective Choi Hyung-in.

My name is...

I already know what it is.

My name is Cho Kyung-ho.

It's Cho Kyung-ho.

It's Cho Kyung-ho.

My name is Cho Kyung-ho!

Sir, my name is Cho Kyung-ho!

How many more bottles of
Dongdongjoo do you have?

Please give us everything.

My god, our rookie is just
something, isn't he? He's a real man!

- Let's drink up!
- Let's drink!

I took my pants off,

and I'll drink all the alcohol, so...

I'll...

stop here now.

I'm sorry.

Tonight, I'll do everything
you want me to do.

Hyung-in, you're drunk. Just sit down.

- No, I don't want to.
- I said, sit down, you little punk!

All right, damn it.

You can call me all the names you want.

- You bastard!
- You can beat me to a pulp.

But I don't want to be part of
this anymore. I want to stop.

I'm going to quit.

Got it?

I'm going to quit!

(Foreign Headquarters
of National Police)

Hometown: Cho Jung-hyun

Damn it.

Excuse me...

Can I ask you for a favor?

(Episode 11)

I asked my aunt and grandmother...

if we could move here.

Both of them probably
didn't want to come back.

But I insisted.

Why did you ask them to come here?

Cho Kyung-ho.

He said he'd tell me about my mom.

He said...

there will be traces of
my mom here and there

when I come to Saju.

That's why I insisted we move here.

If I hadn't done that...

would Kyung-jin still be alive?

And would...

nothing have happened to my aunt?

No one will come here anymore, right?

Who would come here on
a rainy day like this?

Right.

Let's go home before it gets dark.

I don't want the lights to go out.

You're being obsessive.

How can the candle
stay lit for 24 hours?

Leave her alone.

Every day,
she comes here early in the morning

and lights up the candle that went out.

Moon-sook, you're pretty tenacious.

I don't know why you
don't study like that.

- I just like it.
- Like what?

Jae-young likes romantic things.

She'd feel happy if she came here
and saw the candle twinkling.

It's a good thing we didn't go home,
right? Someone's here.

Moon-sook...

I'm back.

Don't cry.

I missed you.

(Jae-young,
come home before winter comes.

I hope you can spend
Christmas with your family.)

You guys didn't give up waiting for me.

Thank you so much.

No. We weren't the only
ones waiting for you.

Your aunt did everything.

She's the one who changed the hearts
of the people and never gave up on you.

I see.

No one's coming.

We made an announcement today that
you have something to say.

Hmm.

It's completely empty.

What will you do when you
can't gain the people's trust?

Why are you looking at me like that?

You're acting as if I shouldn't be here.

I'll have to keep an eye on whether
our successor is relaying Guru's

messages well and if her escape
plan is coming along smoothly.

Isn't that why you came
in here on your own?

First, you wanted to release Guru's
daughter and then escape yourself.

Think whatever you want.

But Jung-hyun, did you know?

Even before your plans start,
the Day of Purification will come.

It's too late.

The future will never change.

We'll go to the end of our
fixed future and get salvation.

Why are you trying to accept
such a pathetic death?

What are you going to get out of it?

Don't talk carelessly.

Then again, what do you know?

You're nothing. Not even the successor.

Do you really think...

all this...

is important enough
to trade for your life?

Shut your mouth.

You will help me tomorrow.

Go to Saju Station and spread the gas.

You just have to wait
for Jung-hyun in person.

Do you remember the room
you locked us in?

The room that was so
terribly dark that I

couldn't even see my hands
right in front of me.

When you're in there, it feels like
all sounds and smells disappear.

The black room is
literally darkness itself.

At first, it was just an hour.
Even that was horribly long.

But I was able to endure it
because there was no other way.

Three hours, five hours, ten hours.

Eventually, you locked me and
my sister in there all night.

In that black room, I experience the
boundaries of time breaking down.

The distinction between yesterday,
today, and tomorrow began to disappear.

Many things suddenly started to change.

I was me, but at the same
time, I was nobody.

I was disconnected but connected
to everything at the same time.

I think that's when I
was able to control ants.

In a way...

you gifted that to me.

You remember everything.

I told you. I don't remember.

There's no distinction between
the past and the present.

What happened in that dark room...

is also what's happening right now.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

I deserve to die.

Can you please reconsider?

For the sake of
that little boy over there?

When the door to the black room opens,

a drunken you enters...

and looks at dying us
as if it's interesting.

And there's something you always say.
Do you remember?

I still remember it clearly.

"Why are these mongrels living so long?
Damn it."

You say you changed?

It stinks!

It's the smell of dust.

The detective said he
hasn't been home in a while.

Are you sure this is okay?

I think we're bothering you too much.

No, I'm fine.

I'm not home a lot either.

From now on,
you should stay home if you can.

We're taking care of the fact that
Jae-young is back as a top secret.

Until we get all those
bastards from Youngjingyo,

the restaurant and your
home are not safe places.

But still, you must be uncomfortable.

I'm really okay.

Let's go to the police station.

Ma'am, can you stay here?

- We'll be back as soon as possible.
- Of course.

I'll stay here until they fall
asleep, so please

don't worry and go do
whatever you need to do.

What's this? How embarrassing!

Did you seriously bring a doll?

It's my first time
sleeping somewhere else.

Without it, I'd be too nervous to sleep!

I should've brought mine, too.

I thought you guys would tease
me, so I didn't bring it.

I can't stand it!

What's this?
Is he sleeping?

Jeez, just like his nickname.

Are you sure?

This is a serious problem, you know.

If you're wrong that Professor
Jang of the Skull Gang is a member

of the national assembly,
this could be like a nuclear bomb.

No.

I actually expected this would happen.

Are you sure it's him?

Do you know that my boss is dead?

Are you talking about Kang Yong-tak?

Those bastards killed him, didn't they?

(Im In-kwan)

I don't care whether it's Skull Gang,
Youngjingyo, or a national assemblyman.

I just need to pay them back
for what they did to my boss.

I heard you were close to Jae-young.

How was she doing here?

I don't know.
I didn't really talk to her.

Is that so?

I must have been misinformed.

I just heard you two were close.

Yes, you're wrong.

Someone like me meant nothing to her.

She did try to use me to
get out of here though.

It was always like that for me.

I never had any friends.
I was always taken advantage of.

But I know that it's probably because
I'm physically and emotionally weak.

Hey...

Why are you lying?

Do you think I don't know my own niece?

Your name is Shi-young, right?

Can I ask you how long you've been here?

How many years have you
all been trapped here?

Why does it matter to you?

You're going to abandon us anyway.

Or are you going to join
us on the Day of Purification?

You're not.
So why on earth did you come here?

You were a student who had
your own great hideout.

Yes, it was quiet here
during lunch time.

Sometimes,
I used to eat my lunch here alone.

I have something to tell you.

I want to have a home with you.

And I want to go back home...

holding your hand every day.

Will you...

marry me?

Se-yoon, we need to get out of here!

Se-yoon!

Excuse me, sir?

Yes?

What is it?

Are you alright?

What's this?

It's cola tea.

- Cola what?
- It's boiled cola.

When I couldn't sleep, my aunt made it
for me secretly without my grandma knowing.

This will help you sleep well.

How is it?
It's okay, right?

Do you have nightmares often?

You can say that.

When did you start having them?

I'm not sure.

I don't even remember when they started.

By any chance, did you start having
nightmares when the baby was gone?

Actually, we went into that
room because we were so curious.

The baby's room.

We were going to tell you
as soon as you came home,

but you came back later
than we thought you would.

I'm sorry we went in there
without your permission.

No, it's fine.
Don't worry about it.

Did you and your wife...

break up because of the baby?

I see.

So that's what you're curious about.

No, that's not true.

She just left because
she doesn't like me.

I didn't find out until much
later that she had a miscarriage.

It was more like a notice.

So there's nothing you
need to be concerned about.

Your aunt asked me
to take care of you...

and I'm sure she was
very worried about you.

You must have been worried
about what I thought about you,

the child of Cho Kyung-ho and my wife.

I wanted to ask you, too.

About what you thought about me.

My wife left me without any explanation.

That's probably how much
she couldn't stand me.

So I don't think I have the authority
to talk about that her decision.

I don't think I need to have
bad feelings about you either.

I don't know if this was
the answer you wanted.

It's late.
Let's go to bed.

Um...

I don't think anyone abandons
their family for no reason.

I'm sure there are things
that she couldn't tell you.

Because she loves you too much.

That's what my aunt and I are like.

You can't...

reveal everything.

So this is the Fulfillment Room.

The one where you hang people
upside down every night.

We learned that's the most important
process to understand what Guru said.

I really despite you people.

However, this is wrong.

This is not fulfillment.

This is just...

pure torture.

Nothing more, nothing less.

I eventually came back here.

I was right, wasn't I?

Nothing has changed.

- What do we do?
- My goodness!

How dare you cause a ruckus
in the Fulfillment Room?

What do you think you're doing?

Do you think this kind
of act is meaningful?

Do you want to play a hero
to these people?

We can just get a new rope.

This is meaningless.

What are you doing?

That's enough!
Are you out of your mind?

- Oh no!
- Oh my goodness!

I wasn't waiting for the
rope to break on its own.

I just wanted to show everyone that
it's not a rope that doesn't break.

Thank you for coming!

We ended it, sir.

Excuse me for a moment.

I have a sudden visitor.

- My apologies.
- Go ahead.

Look here.

Don't you have any manners?

How dare you cause a
ruckus at a place where

my family and relatives
are having a meal?

And you came alone with a mere knife.

Come to think of it,
we've met before, haven't we?

I think we saw each other at the villa.

We didn't exactly have a nice
meeting that time either.

Oh, that's right.

Mr. Kang Yong-tak was
there, too, wasn't he?

That's right.

I came to pay you back for his death.

Just look at this fellow!
That's a harsh thing to say!

I'm not the one who killed him.

Why are you looking for payback here?

I'm just involved in
business with Youngjingyo.

Do you know that Mr. Kang
was killed in a place

where the people of
Youngjingyo go to pray?

And Youngjingyo is led by
someone called Mr. Proxy.

Objectively speaking, Mr. Kang
was killed that day because of him.

So, if you want revenge,
you have to go after him.

Come on, let him go!

You tied him up too tightly!
He's losing circulation in his hands!

When a man wants to do something big,

he has to distinguish
between enemies and allies.

Looking at you,
I just thought of an incredible idea.

Would you like to hear me out?

I'm about to give you a compass.

I'll give you a path that
will directly lead you to...

Mr. Proxy's room.

Why are we here?

I wanted to come here.

What is this place?

Just...

my Alma mater.

Just...

an Alma mater.

Mr. Choi.

Here you go.

I asked Jae-young about this,
and she said she didn't write it.

I'm not the one who sent a
message to my friends either.

Someone fooled them
into thinking it was me.

But who did this? And why?

That way, they could drag
your aunt into this mess.

They wanted to let you go
and put her in your place.

I want to go to the seven
secret spots of Saju.

That way, I can find out where I was
trapped and where my aunt is right now.

I don't know what this person
wants, but we have to stop it.

I want to stop them.

(Sook Banjum)

(Kyungcheon No. 56 -
Recruitment of School Magazine Club)

(The school magazine club
searches for secret spots!)

(1. Deer Farm - Manuri,
Gwangjung-eup, Saju-si)

I'm fine.

I mean it.

So please don't cry.

Could you show me your hand?

Ma'am,

you can stop now.

We've already made up our mind.

What I mean is, it's too late.

So please leave us alone.

I'm begging you.

I won't rush.

I'll continue to stay in this spot.

So, please let me know anytime
if you change your mind.

It's okay if it's just once.

Please...

give me a chance.

Thank you for coming.
I was waiting for you.

Everyone, I'm not the successor.

So I don't have the right to
say anything presumptuous to you.

I know that this is not
what you want to hear.

But I thought there would be
something that I could do.

Everyone, raise your heads
and look at me.

Please.

You can come to me and take
turns telling me your stories.

It doesn't matter what it's about.

Please let me hear your voice.

Will you really hear my story?

Yes.

Please tell me.
It doesn't matter what it's about.

I'm...

an orphan.

In 1987, my parents passed away due to
the terrorist incident at Saju Station,

and I've been moving from one
relative's house to another.

I've never been to school before.

This must be it.

Can we go in?

Can we?

Mr. Choi!

Yes.

- We're going in, right?
- Yes, we should.

That day, my fiancée was helping her
parents at a snack bar at Saju Station.

She was a person who put her family

and me first rather than herself.

When we looked over my
grandmother's dead body,

we found half-eaten pumpkin
taffy in her pocket.

She had bad legs but
she came to the station

and waited for me while
eating pumpkin taffy.

My grandmother still
appears in my dreams.

And crying,

I tell her,

"Grandma, don't come to Saju
Station and wait for me."

"Please stay home."

"Please don't die."

My husband was a station attendant.

They said he tried to evacuate as
many people as he could until the end.

He should've just run away.

I resent him more for what he did.

Why are you causing us such pain?

We've already made up our mind.

Everyone here suffered
pain worse than death after

losing their loved ones
at Saju Station that day.

We want salvation now.

We were forgotten!

As time went by,

what we went through and our pain

were completely forgotten by others.

That's why we chose this path.

Guru...

said he'd go with us.

He said he would take part in our pain.

But who are you?

What can you do for us?

Why do you suddenly appear and test us?

Damn it!

Why are you looking at us like that?

I'm sorry...

for leaving you like this.

I wanted to forget.

I wanted to run away from it forever.

Then I thought...

it would be as if it never happened.

But I was wrong.

I should've met with all of you.

I should've met you...

and heard your stories.

Someone should have apologized.

That was how it should've been.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry I came too late.

I'm sorry I forgot you.

I'm sorry.

I'm really sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Moon-sook told me...

that there was an accident
here because of a fire.

This drawing!

Cho Kyung-ho!
He must've come here!

What's wrong?

Are you okay?

So that's what happened.

Pardon?

The seven secret spots are
all related to my late wife.

They're all places we went to
before we got married.

She told me she wanted
to show me her hometown.

Then...

"Let's go back to our own home."

This is where I proposed to my wife.

That's what Cho Kyung-ho...

wanted to say to me.

That...

I'm a human who forgot
what I should never have.

He returned here to tell me this.

You're here, my son.

You're finally home.

I can see the end
that I don't want to see.

I can see your end.

Son.

Did you eat?

Aren't you hungry?

My father and I came here
often when I was younger.

Back then,
my father was a good and normal man.

You don't understand.

You can't stop this.

Everything has already been decided.

Is that so?

If that's the case, do I just
need to stand here and do nothing?

Should I stay still because
I can't change your mind?

Should I pretend that I
didn't see the terrible things

and the false accusation
that your father experienced?

Should I just watch you try to kill

the people of my hometown and my family?

I told you.

This won't change anything.

So you don't have
to risk your life for it.

You see my future, don't you?

Even so, I don't want to avoid it.

I can't do that.

I'm not afraid.

I'm not afraid.

Did you watch this?

Son.

My poor son.

Why did he do that?

Why did he do this to
the people of this town?

It's always been on my mind.

Did I...

make you that way...

because I was ignorant?

Let me ask you one thing.

Are you unable to forget that day?

The day your father died.

Just before he died, he said...

our family...

should go together.

All of us.

Then I...

grabbed your and Jung-hyun's hands...

and screamed at him.

"Snap out of it."

"How could you say something so absurd?"

Then your father said,

"Because we're family."

He said he can't leave us
behind because he loves us.

"You crazy moron. You pathetic moron."

"No. That can never happen."

"Don't even think about
taking my children with you."

"If you want to do it..."

"do it alone."

"Die..."

"by yourself."

Run away.

Son.

I'm sorry.

For always leaving you alone.

Please run away.

My son.

Run away and...

be living proof that I was
wrong about what I saw.

Son.

Forgive me.

Just once,

I wanted you to tell me...

that what I saw wasn't real...

that I was wrong...

and that I was mistaken.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry...

for being...

a shameful...

and disappointing mother.

This will never end.

Those who see this video...

Those who see this video...

are bound to die...

after killing the one...

they love the most.

(Sook Banjum)

You're back!

Finally!

We are all sinners.

Sometimes, we doubt what Guru
says and can't understand it.

If we don't reach a new future,
our sins will be with us forever.

That's why we must celebrate
the Day of Purification.

Everyone, I have great news.

He has kept his promise.

He will come back to us.

Therefore,
he has kept his promise that...

he will face the future with us.

Guru has returned.

Now, get rid of your fear.

Throw away your useless
obsession with this world.

Let us all greet him together.

Was it you?

What do you mean?

Were you the one...

who gave her that video?

No, how could I dare do such a thing?

You never gave me the order.

It appears to be...

Jung Young-seob's doing.

He did whatever he pleased
as your proxy.

What do you think...

I know and do not know?

Sir, I...

What do you think...

I know and...

do not know?

Do you know why I'm keeping you alive?

I can see the end of
your future very clearly.

It suits you very well.

I never intended to kill her.

But she kept blackmailing me.

She told me to admit to what
I did at the welfare center,

turn myself in, and pay for my crimes.

But what's the point?

What's done is done.

Even if I go to prison,
the dead won't come back to life.

Don't you agree?

Lift your head.

This is interesting.

You're someone who is capable
of killing his own daughter.

I'll help you follow her.

No, wait.

You might come in handy.

Listen to me carefully and answer me.

I can erase it.

I can completely erase
your memories of...

killing your daughter with your hands.

You're...

him.

The cursed child.

The one who made all the welfare
center employees drown in the pool.

Answer me.

Do you want me to erase your memories?

Do you want to be my ant forever?

Please do it.

Please erase my memories!

Please let me be reborn cleanly!

(Sook Banjum)

Grandma.

In the next life...

please be born as my daughter.

Then I'll wrap you in a cloth

and carry you around.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, grandma.

Everything's ready now.

It's time to come back home.

Once he returns home, he'll find out...

who Cho Jae-young is...

and who he is.

(Hometown)

- The price.
- Where's my aunt?

Promise me that I'm the only
one who has to pay for it.

My wife left me a letter?

What the hell are you playing at?

Either way, it's very cruel.

I've been dreading and waiting
for this moment all my life.

No! Never!

You can never kill me.

The only one who can kill me is myself.
