ALL CHARACTERS, ORGANIZATIONS,
LOCATIONS, AND INCIDENTS

DEPICTED IN THIS DRAMA
ARE ENTIRELY FICTITIOUS

Yes.

Remember the terrible memories
of that day.

Remember them clearly.

You must regain your lost memories
before you die.

What's wrong with everyone? Oh, no!

I did this to them.

I'll make you feel

the same pain you caused me.

Didn't I tell you to wait for me that day?

Wait for me here. I'll be right back.

It was you.

I finally found you.

I missed you.

It was a lot easier
thanks to everything you did.

After Kim Yeong-jun's death, I realized

that someone k*lled him using the method
I used on the Day of Tragedy.

After that, I found
the therapist's office in Jangyi-dong.

PARK GYU-TAE

BAEK SEUNG-JAE

CHOI YONG-SEOK

There I learned that someone was

planning to seek revenge
on the Baegya Foundation.

Is that why you started to send
the warning letters to Reporter Lee Ji-uk?

Yes. In the end, I was able to get
close to Son Min-ho thanks to you.

NAM WOO-CHEON

SON MIN-HO

BAEK SEUNG-JAE

CHOI YONG-SEOK

But was that really the only way?

I did exactly what you did. Why?

You don't like it?

And I took a page from your book
again this time.

How was it? Did I get it right?

Yes, you did. Sort of.

You almost had me fooled, too.

Until I found out that Oh Gyeong-min
was the target, not Oh Jeong-hwan.

Right on.

You are indeed number ,
the smartest kid in White Night Village.

What did you do to Dr. Leighton?

It seems like she still doesn't remember
her past, so I want to help her.

She doesn't need to
get those memories back.

You left me alone in the dark that day

and made me feel
how scary it is to be alone.

So you two should know
how terrifying and cruel that is!

I was just trying to find my sister
who went back to the village.

Blood sure is thicker than water.

So you didn't care about the people
you left behind?

White Night Village's best test subject
is indeed something else.

But what about your sister?

Gosh.

It's so quiet in here.

It's a hybrid car.
It's nice that it's quiet. Why?

I mean…

By the way,
how did you know we were there?

You kindly told me on the news
that you were at White Night Village.

That's how I knew.

Is Dr. Leighton okay?

Yes. She'll be fine.

That's good.

Mr. Lee Ji-uk.

Do you believe
that I'm not the culprit now?

And now you must know
what you should be doing

instead of provoking
or instigating people.

Okay, I get it. Let's go quietly.

I mean, the car is quiet.

Right now,
let's only focus on what's right.

Mr. Lee.

Well, okay. Yes. Thank you.

Take good care of Dr. Leighton.

Okay, see you soon.

Don't forget what I said.

See you.

How did it go?

Where have you been?

White Night Village.

White Night Village?

-Why?
-Jamie Leighton.

She was there.

I could've ended everything.

But Do Jeong-woo showed up there.

Are you awake now?

I have a piercing headache.

He drugged you.

How did you know I was there?

Standing here like this
reminds me of the night

when we were surveilling Son Min-ho's
house at the observation post.

Don't change the subject.

I remember everything now.

What we did years ago,
on the Day of Tragedy

at White Night Village.

Twenty eight years ago,

to escape from White Night Village
as a couple of kids,

we had to get help from the grown-ups.

I was sure that there had to be someone
who thought

what they were doing
in the village wasn't right.

In real life, they were pressured
by the authorities,

so they wouldn't do anything about it.

But if I could make them believe
that they were dreaming,

I thought that perhaps, someone
with a good intention might help us.

That's what I thought.

A good intention.

But I was wrong.

Deep inside their hearts,
there were no good intentions.

Rage.

It was evil like resentment.

They put themselves first,

not the children.

No. They didn't care
about the children at all.

They hated and despised each other.

The hatred against each other
that had been buried deep inside

started to blaze up like a fire.

When they were under the illusion
that they were dreaming,

some laughed, some k*lled,
and some were k*lled.

I thought you did that
to the grown-ups on purpose.

Is that why you called me a monster?

I didn't want to admit

the monster who did those awful things
tried to save me.

Even though all my memories were gone,

my memories of the monster
became clearer day by day.

The monster in my memory looked so sad.

The monster that tried to save me.

Why didn't you tell me?

That you're my twin older brother.

I think too much time has passed
for a family reunion.

You should go back to the States.

Staying here will only
put yourself in danger.

What's your plan?

Dr. Leighton.

Go back to your real family.

You don't belong here.

It was hard to find happiness.

Go back before you lose it again.

Superintendent Do.

No…

"No"?

"No." What?

You are part of my real family.

You promised

to protect me.

I'll protect you.

I will.

If you think you're protecting me
by excluding me from this case,

you're wrong.

I'm staying here.

Do you know how much money we've spent
on sponsoring the foundation?

And yet the foundation appears to have
no control over the situation at all.

There will be no further threats.

Director Lee's position
will be filled soon.

It's not something
you can just gloss over.

We've spent so much money.

Think carefully about
how you earned that money.

I don't understand why
you're protecting the foundation so much.

Aren't we all in the same boat?

You told us that it's been a long time
since you'd seen His Excellency.

He may already be dead.

Watch your tongue.

It's not like you saw him in person.

This experiment required
astronomical amounts of money.

Don't you think it's time for us
to see the results?

We have two children left.

I'm worried we won't be able to
get test subjects for the time being.

I don't think getting test subjects
is the problem.

No progress on the experiment is.

We don't have much time either.

The foundation directors won't
just sit back and watch anymore.

Is Do Jeong-woo our answer after all?

I bet he doesn't have much time left
because of the brain lesion,

the side effect of the experiment.

We must figure out the formula
before it's too late…

no matter what it takes.

Old man.

-Where's Lieutenant Gong?
-She was gone when I woke up.

Even if he wakes up,
I can still handle him.

Is that something to brag about?

Is he still sleeping?

He's been like this since we got him here.
And he's not waking up.

Are you hurt?

Since when did you care so much about me?

Thanks, anyway.

Seriously. Every word that
comes out his mouth is so rude.

By the way,
how will we find the secret lab now?

The secret lab?

There is

a way.

Shouldn't we be watching
the welfare centers?

Now that they know we've been following
them, they won't take the kids for now.

They'll probably want to hide from us.

Seeing how research has been going on
for decades with little success,

there's a good chance
the kids will be sacrificed as well.

We must find them fast.

Hold on. Wait.

Okay. Hold on a second.

-Where did the crash happen?
-The car crash?

-Here.
-It's just outside the city.

Then your car crashed while on this road.

After that, the cars with the kids
kept going this way.

-That's right.
-If you look at the road,

it heads to the suburb.
In minutes, you'd be in a city center.

To keep a low profile, they wouldn't have
set up the lab in the middle of a city.

If they drove the kids out of the center
toward the suburb,

before they enter a new city center…

I'm sure there's a secret lab
somewhere in this area.

You still haven't found Gyeong-min?

No, not yet.

What exactly can you do?

I saved you when you didn't know
what to do with your sorry life.

You ungrateful bastard.

I'm sorry.
I'll bring him back as soon as I can.

Did you check
the security cameras at home?

Yes. He was in his room the whole time.

He left his room a long time
after the therapist came by.

DRUG DEALER

Hello?

I had a feeling
that you were looking for me.

Do Jeong-woo?

How are you doing?

Even if I wanted to see you,
soldiers are everywhere

and the security is way too tight.

By the way, Oh Gyeong-min is okay.

Are you sure he's okay?

You're worried about your junkie son.
That's sweet of you.

He's been sleeping for days.
Don't worry too much.

What do you want?

I've already told you.

The location of the secret lab
and Ji Hyeong-geun.

If you want your son back,

come to the lot at Hanjung-ro -gil
at :  p.m. on the rd.

Take me to the secret lab,
and I'll give you your son back.

Do you think I'll give in that easily?

No, I'm not forcing you,

but if you want your son to live,
that's the deal.

Are you sure this is the right place?

Yes, it is.

-You know, the range is too wide.
-Come on.

Even though it's in the suburb,

there must be dozens of factories,
farms, and warehouses.

How can we find the secret lab here?

Sometimes, you give me no credit.

There must be
a backup generator in the lab.

For hospitals and laboratories,
a second without electricity can be fatal.

They usually have
high-capacity backup generators.

Especially for labs
with human experiments.

So the secret lab must be
where the backup generators are installed?

Clever.

-Yes.
-You're smart.

What now?

Get me the list of backup generator sales
and installations here.

I knew you'd say that.

-Don't worry.
-Okay. I'm counting on you.

Yes. You can count on me.

Moon Jae-ung is back.

Is that so? Where did he go?

He was at White Night Village.

White Night Village?

Why?

-Did he go there because of Leighton?
-That's right.

But he told me that
Do Jeong-woo showed up there as well.

What?

-Do Jeong-woo was there?
-Yes.

Because Do Jeong-woo interfered,
his plan to k*ll Dr. Leighton failed.

Look at this assh*le.

Was Oh Gyeong-min mere bait
to catch Do Jeong-woo from the start?

What are you going to do now?

Is Dr. Leighton all right?

Yes, she's okay.

She wasn't poisoned or anything.
She probably just had a headache.

That's a relief.

But how did Son Min-ho
know about the building?

I think someone gave him the information,

thinking that I'd show up there.

I don't know anything other than the fact
that it involves White Night Village.

Can you handle it?

Yes, tell me.

Baegya Foundation.

Baegya Foundation?

Call it a cartel, a trust,
or a foundation.

You can call it whatever you want.

What if in our country,

there is a group of people with
a vested interest to maintain their power?

And what if they've begun
to experiment on people?

What do they want to achieve
from these human experiments?

Imagine having all the money
and power you need.

What would you want next?

Immortality.

Then…

you're telling me that my dad was
researching how to achieve immortality?

No way.

Having all the power and authority
and being immortal

is what Baegya Foundation wants.

Have you

made up your mind?

I'll help, too.

SEOUL METROPOLITAN POLICE AGENCY

There are no victims.

This is making me nervous.

Gosh. Why can't I get ahold of her?

Ji-wan, I need you to be
on your game more than ever.

-Get a grip.
-I'm sorry.

Dr. Leighton!

Are you coming back
from White Night Village?

Yes, I am.

What did you find out?

A lot of things.

To the point that I should be so grateful
that I'm alive right now.

Did something happen?

Hey, Gong.

How come you never answer your phone?

It's been crazy. I'm sorry.

I'm glad you're okay, Dr. Leighton.

So you know what happened.

What is it? What do you know?

Oh, right. What about Oh Gyeong-min?

He's okay. He's with Mr. Do.

What happened while I was gone?

Is this where you wanted to go?

We eat spicy food when we're stressed out.

-I have a low tolerance for spicy food.
-Let's go.

Are you going to put everything in here?

Just follow my lead.

One serving of cheese balls, please.

Lieutenant Gong, you never waver.

Tteokbokki at times like this?

We must eat well at times like this.

Thank you.

Isn't it good?

Yes.

Here are your cheese balls.

-Thank you.
-Enjoy your meal.

Excuse me. Are you from the States?

How do you know?

I have a knack for reading people's faces.

You can't eat spicy food, right?
This is on the house.

Americans can't eat spicy food.

Thank you.

They hate spicy food.

That's why the third child was
at White Night Village.

I'm glad Mr. Do was there.

If he hadn't come to save me,

I would've
been buried in a deserted village.

The third child made me
get my memories back and I'm still alive.

Should I thank Superintendent Do
and the third child?

Please don't say that.

He's my twin brother.

What?

Who is?

Superintendent Do Jeong-woo.

I don't remember him clearly,

but I think we were close enough
that we were always together.

Hello, Chief Secretary.

What happened to Do Jeong-woo?

I'm sorry. I have no update.

I'll do my best to give you good news.

This may be off-topic,
but may I ask why you are looking for him?

I believe Do Jeong-woo kidnapped my son.

What? Do Jeong-woo did?

What's going on?

Mr. Son Min-ho called.

What does he want now?

Gong Hye-won and the rest of the team
took Chief Secretary Oh Jeong-hwan's son.

What are you talking about?

Chief Secretary Oh just called me.

He said Do Jeong-woo took his son.

Pardon? Not Gong Hye-won?

What are you talking about?

Are you saying Gong Hye-won took him
or that Do Jeong-woo did?

Damn it, those rascals.

-I got five.
-Where?

Right here. One, two, three, four, five.

Hey!

You are unbelievable.

What have you been up to these days?

Where is the son of the chief secretary?

I don't follow.

You told us to be on standby,
so we've been here.

These punks.

WIN

Report to me immediately if Jeong-woo
or Hye-won contact you.

-Got it?
-Yes, sir.

Gosh. I'll die before my time
because of these punks.

My gosh. You're pissing me off.

Gosh.

Keep it up.

Keep doing that.

My heart was b*ating so fast
that I thought I was going to die.

How did such a coward like you end up
becoming a cop? Seriously.

"Keep it up."

-Let's keep going.
-Okay.

Why isn't he waking up?

He's alive, right?

He's hypnotized.

He'll only be a nuisance if he wakes up.
Just let him sleep.

Old man,
did you look into the backup generators?

Yes. Well…

I looked into the sales and operations
of backup generators in the area.

There are way too many.

We can't pinpoint when it was installed.

Most buildings are required to install
backup generators these days.

Seriously?
You were bragging that you got this.

Then…

you'll have to do something annoying.

What else do you want me to do?

Gosh, this is really scary.

How could something like this happen
in our country?

It sounds like a movie,
but everything recorded here is true.

In fact, before I met
the third child in the village,

some people locked us up in a room.

Do you know how scared I was?

I'm pretty sure

someone who is afraid that the truth
about the village would be exposed

is behind this.

That means the people involved in
White Night Village are still powerful.

Even after decades?

They're still powerful?

If that's the case,
it's not just one individual.

It means there's
a powerful group of people.

They must be afraid of the truth.

According to the data
Lieutenant Gong gave me,

the White Night Village project
involved a lot of m*llitary personnel.

It was possible since the project set up
around the end of the m*llitary regime.

Judging from the size of the village
and the nature of the work,

it's highly likely that
this was a national project.

That may be true considering the influence
of the m*llitary regime on Korean history.

The project failed,
but in order to achieve their goal,

I bet they are secretly passing down
power and authority somewhere out there.

What the hell are you doing?

Forget about catching the three survivors.
Do Jeong-woo now has my son.

Do Jeong-woo has your son?

Not Gong Hye-won?

What were you thinking?

I'm sure that to trap Do Jeong-woo,
the third child

sent a warning letter
with your son as the target.

But neither of them showed up
at the scene.

Mr. Son.

So you knew all along
that my son was the target?

No.

I didn't know your son was the target
until I got there.

I doubt that you'll do this,

but if you're hiding something from me
and plotting a scheme

and if anything happens to my son,

you'll have to find a spot in a graveyard,
not in the foundation.

I'll get your son back no matter what.

Where are you going?

We have more work, as if it's not enough.

I should go find the secret lab.

I'll go with you.

He won't wake up as he's hypnotized,
but stay here and keep an eye on him.

I told you I'd help you.

Let me come with you.

We can't check them on paper,
so we must check them ourselves.

You're going to check them yourself?

Yes. The old man will

send a virtual electrical signal
to the computer at the substation.

Then the substation's computer
will mistake it for overloading,

cut off the control panel,
and turn off the power.

Hospitals and laboratories are equipped
with high-capacity backup generators.

So once the power goes out,
it will restart in ten seconds.

If we can find the light in the darkness,
we can narrow down our search.

Old man, I'm ready.

Okay, I'm sending in the signal now.

One, two, three, four.

Are they okay?

Eight, nine, ten.

They're going to be okay.

Well, the power went out for a moment,

but the backup generator
kicked in right away.

They should be okay.

The lights are all back on.

-You filmed it, right?
-Yes.

Old man, we got it. Let's go.

This has never happened before.

Hello.

Do you use your backup generator often?

I use it to feed my cows
from time to time,

but I don't use it that often.

Thank you.

YOO GWON, YEARS OLD

Are they okay?

Yes, we drastically increased
the dosage of the dr*gs.

So as expected,
they are rejecting the dr*gs.

If these two fail as well,
we won't be able to continue for a while.

It's only temporary,
so don't worry too much.

Well, we must find a way
to get new test subjects.

Right.

I heard there was a blackout last night.

Yes. The blackout was brief,
but it's the first time it happened.

The backup generator worked right away,

so there was no problem
with the life support equipment.

That's good.

But I was informed
that your daughter took my son.

Did you know about this?

What?

She probably took him to Do Jeong-woo.

Yes. It seems that way.

I actually got a call from Do Jeong-woo.

Does your daughter know
about White Night Village?

-Yes.
-How much?

The last time Do Jeong-woo tailed you,
your daughter took him with her.

Is there something going on between them?

Well, it seems that way.

I see.

I'll do my best to persuade her.

We have a visitor.

He came to us himself.

-No.
-What are you doing now?

What if we lose Do Jeong-woo?

Then we would be basically
giving away the location

of the lab we've been hiding for decades.

I know we've been trying to get him
so badly, but not now.

I don't think
yesterday's blackout was a coincidence.

Did you find anything?

There's nothing out of the ordinary.

The places I visited turned out to be
small factories or cattle farms.

I talked to a few people,
but there was nothing unusual.

They wouldn't have built it
if it was that easy to find.

They've been doing it for decades
without getting caught.

I bet they made sure
no one could find the lab.

I'm sure that it must be here somewhere.

Where is this secret lab?

Mr. Do.

What is it?

MOM

Don't you have to go home?

Go home first.
Didn't you say your mom was home alone?

I'll be back soon after I see her.

Oh, right.

There's still plenty of time for you
to back out of this.

You don't have to come back.

I must set it right
when something is wrong.

I'll be back.

Don't come back.

What? What are you looking at?

That's odd.

Why didn't you tell her you're meeting
Oh Jeong-hwan tomorrow?

We can handle a meeting on our own,
can't we?

Do we need help from a girl?

Is that so?

By the way,
will we be able to take him like this?

What are you going to do?

To fully wake him from his lucid dream,

I just need to make
what his brain recognizes

match what his eyes recognize, too.

That's why I brought him to the rooftop.

It's hard to tell day from night
in the basement.

This watch confuses the day and night
between reality and dreams.

First of all, I'll use this drug
as an antagonist

and wake him up.

He's going back to sleep.

Hey!

Oh Gyeong-min, wake up.

Are you awake now?

You're in a tight spot, aren't you?

What are you going to do now?

I don't know. What should I do?

What is this?

TRENDING COMPARISONS BY SEARCH ENGINE
FOREWARNED MURDERS

A few days ago, right after we reported
about the new warning letter,

Director Lee Byeong-seon of
Hangang Hospital and his son, Lee Tae-su,

were found dead.

For some unknown reason, Director Lee

stabbed himself in the stomach.

And his son, Lee Tae-su,

jumped off the roof
of his building and d*ed.

Of course, we need to follow up
on these incidents.

But as far as we know,

except for Kim Yeong-jun, the first
victim of the forewarned murders,

all the other victims seem to
have ties to White Night Village.

Please watch this footage.

This is the footage of the two men
who visited Lee Tae-su before he jumped.

We believe that one of these two men is

the prime suspect
of this serial forewarned m*rder case.

We also have reason to believe
that he was one of the children

who survived the tragedy
at White Night Village.

Could he be getting revenge
for what happened in White Night Village?

Who is this man?

And how is he connected to Do Jeong-woo
who was once believed to be the culprit?

And what is the truth of what happened
in White Night Village?

In the future, I will tell you the truth
through an in-depth report.

One step closer to current events.

I'm Lee Ji-uk of
Zoom In on Current Events.

I should've k*lled
that bastard, Lee Ji-uk.

What do we do now?

I must get revenge on Baegya Foundation

faster.

Who's next?

Who else?

CHILD PRODIGY IS
A WHITE NIGHT VILLAGE SURVIVOR

POLICE FIND DROWNED BODY,
PRESUMED su1c1de

DAY OF TRAGEDY AT WHITE NIGHT VILLAGE

I'm home.

How many days has it been?

What about Hye-won? Any news from her?

Like you, once she's on a case,
she won't think about anything else.

You must be getting old.

-You rarely ask about her.
-I was just asking.

I bet you two had a fight. Right?

Hye-won looked like she had a lot to say.
And you're asking about her.

You know what? You should let it go, too.

Even if she's your daughter, you can't
expect her to do whatever you want.

-Says who?
-I watch TV, you know.

I know what's going on
in the world these days.

I'm home.

Speak of the devil.
Here comes your daughter.

Hye-won.

Can't you quit your job?

If you're going to stop doing
what you're doing, then I will.

I know it's hard for you to understand,
but this job means everything to me.

Even if that means the world to you,
what you're doing is clearly wrong.

If this works, it will be
a groundbreaking moment in human history.

Nothing can justify
the sacrifice of children.

I thought you'd understand
a bit about my work.

Where is Oh Gyeong-min now?

You know a lot of things as expected.

I need the location
of the secret laboratory.

Hye-won.

Sometimes,
it's better to not know anything.

Oh Jeong-hwan is a lot more dangerous
than you think.

So just send his son back.
I'm pleading with you as your father.

-Don't do anything dangerous.
-Dad.

How many times must I tell you
Do Jeong-woo is using you?

It has nothing to do with him.

It's not too late, Dad.

It's not too late to make things right.

There's nothing more to discuss.

Let's go.

Where are we going?

Where do you think we're going?

We're going to see your dad.

Oh Jeong-hwan.

-Hello?
-Hey, it's me. I'm here.

How did you get my number?

I just got it.

I want to know if my son is okay.

-Dad!
-Hey, Gyeong-min. It's Dad.

Stay calm. Don't worry.

Now, let's start the trade.

Take me to the secret lab.

Follow me.

Make sure there are no other cars
following us other than his.

Yes, sir.

What are you doing?

Did you really think I would give away
the location of the lab that easily?

So you don't want to get your son back?

I've been protecting it my whole life.
I can't give it away like this.

SPECIAL THANKS TO LEE EUN-JAE (JAEJAE)

Where is my daughter?

You recruited me to your team
because of my dad, right?

There's nothing we can change.

We might be able to use the serum from
the children who were experimented on

in White Night Village.

Why did you come all the way here?

You were supposed to be my guinea pig
long ago. You lived far too long.

He did everything he could to survive.

It's been a while,

my son.

We don't have much time.
We must find it soon.
