Multiple casualties!

Please send more ambulances!

[boy crying]

[boy] My mom and dad are in there!

Save my mom and dad!

My mom and dad are in there!

My mom and dad are in there!

[dramatic music continues playing]

You're up.

[Minhyuk exhales]

I heard you saved me.

Are those

the scars from that day?

[exhales]

Who are you?

[Seonyul] This is yours.

[Minhyuk exhales]

YANGPYEONG FIRE

[paper rustling]

[Hyeongja] I can't even ask

for your forgiveness.

I'll take full responsibility for my sin.

I hope you don't remember

someone like me,

so you don't lose any opportunities.

I sincerely apologize.

- [chuckles]

- I heard she died in prison.

She begged for forgiveness

from you until she died.

Who said she could die?

Who are you? Are you her son?

[dramatic music continues playing]

[Seonyul sighs]

I needed it so I borrowed it.

I'm giving it back now.

I completed your discharge process.

Call me if you need.

Why are you doing this, you b*stard!

You're like me.

[exhales]

[machine beeping]

[emotional music playing]

[Eunmin crying]

[Eunmin continues crying]

[lady 1] Don't you have any manners!

[man 1] He was a k*ller! Go to hell!

[man 2] He k*lled a child!

- He's so shameless!

- [man 3] How dare you?

[lady 2] He was punished for k*lling

an innocent child!

[people clamoring]

- [man 4] Forget the apology!

- [Eunmin] No, Seonyul.

He was punished for k*lling

an innocent child!

[Eunmin crying]

Hold back.

We have to.

- Mom.

- [Eunmin crying]

[emotional music continues playing]

[Eunmin crying] Honey!

- [lady] We'll begin the funeral process.

- [Seonyul weeping]

[Eunmin crying]

[Seonyul weeping]

- Honey!

- Dad!

- [lady] We'll shut the door.

- [Eunmin crying]

[Seonyul groans]

Hey, his father is a m*rder*r.

[boy 1 groans]

[Seonyul groans]

[boy 2] Get him.

Damn it.

[punches landing]

[boy 2 grunts]

[emotional music continues playing]

Mom.

I'm sorry

I didn't visit you often.

Just wait.

It'll all be over soon.

EPISODE 7

Goodness. Ms. Eun Soohyun?

[gasps] Hello.

-Have you been well?

- Yes. [chuckles]

-[chuckles] Funny seeing you here.

- I know.

That's right

Did you meet the survivor of the fire?

Yes, thanks to you.

He was living at the address you sent me.

[Sira] That's a relief.

The information was so old.

- I was worried it wouldn't help.

- [Soohyun chuckles]

Did you give him the diary?

- Yes.

- That's good.

[mysterious music playing]

If we get the chance,

- let's meet again next time.

- Okay.

- [flame sizzling]

- [people cheering]

- [objects clattering]

- [people cheering]

- [flame sizzling]

- Oh.

[wood clattering]

[wood clattering]

[wood clattering]

[mysterious music continues playing]

[crickets chirping]

[Sira] The victim's counseling log

you were looking for.

I will send those together

to you directly.

[Soohyun] I'm the one

who was looking for him.

Did you give him the diary?

[suspenseful music playing]

[Soohyun] How did she know that?

At the very least,

I never told her about the diary.

COUNSELING LOG

WRITTEN BY PSYCHOLOGIST KIM SIRA

OF HANKOOK UNIVERSITY

[suspenseful music continues playing]

[paper rustling]

[phone vibrating]

GWON SEONYUL

[Soohyun] Who

are you?

[dramatic music playing]

[Sira] Yes?

Hey, Seonyul.

What brings you here?

- [appliance running]

- [liquid splashes]

[Suho] You're up early.

Yes, I got up.

[Suho] You've been tossing

and turning lately.

Is something bothering you?

[phone vibrating]

[appliance stops]

[Seonyul] Where are you?

GWON SEONYUL

[liquid splashing]

Who is it?

[suspenseful music playing]

Well.

The person Hyeongja was looking for.

[exhales]

You already gave him the diary.

Are you still bothered by him?

His wounds are deep.

I guess it did bother me.

Yes, sure.

I understand how you feel.

Can't you stop taking care of him now?

Honestly,

we don't know anything about him.

I'm going to take a shower.

- Hello.

- Yes, hello.

- Hello. [chuckles]

- Hi!

Hello.

Hello!

- You're here.

- [Sujin] Yes.

I just changed her clothes,

and I'm about to head out. [chuckles]

I see you won't be bored.

- Of course not. I'm such a chatterbox.

- [nurse chuckles]

- Oh, right. I'll just shut the window.

- I'll do it.

- Really? Thanks. [chuckles]

- Sure. [chuckles]

- Take care.

- [nurse] Okay.

[machine beeping]

[Sujin] Why did you do that the other day?

You startled Seonyul.

He thought something happened to you

and hasn't eaten for days.

[machine beeping]

This is just between us,

but that dummy thinks I only like him

as a friend.

But

I won't let anyone hurt Seonyul.

No matter who it is.

So wake up.

You promised.

- Goodness!

- [lady] Gosh!

[nurses clamoring]

- [nurse 1] Doctor!

- [nurse 2] Are you okay?

- Are you okay?

- [Taeho groans]

Well

- Sujin?

- Yes?

- [Taeho] What are you doing here?

- Well

- You must be here to visit.

- Yes, are you okay?

- Yes? [groans]

- But just now

- I heard something crack.

- [Taeho groans]

- [Taeho] I'm okay.

- Really?

[Taeho groans]

I can't believe

you saw all that. [chuckles]

It's fine. [chuckles]

But you remembered my name!

Dr. Kang Taeho.

I thought of it every time I saw you.

[Sujin chuckles]

Did you not get sleep last night?

You have bags under your eyes.

Yes, I just got out of surgery.

I guess you haven't eaten yet either.

Here you go.

No, you should eat this.

I can buy another one on my way.

- Help yourself.

- Okay, then.

- Thank you.

- Sure.

- [bell rings]

- I should go. See you.

[Taeho chuckles]

[Taeho exhales]

[playful music playing]

She gives me hearts every time I see her.

Is this a greenlight?

[camera clicks]

[phone vibrating]

[Taeho] I'll treat you to a meal next time

to thank you for the donuts.

This is my number.

[Sujin] Mission complete.

We're going on a date next time.

[mysterious music playing]

[exhales]

I wish he'd get jealous.

[camera clicks]

- [Suho] Hey.

- [camera clicks]

[Hansang] Give us another glass.

No, that's fine. I drove here.

[camera clicks]

[Hansang] Here.

[mysterious music continues playing]

I thought I'd come across something

if I kept digging into

Kim Joon's assistant.

Who's this? Never seen him before.

I looked into him because I thought

he was one of Kim Joon's henchmen.

I think he's the one that clears the path

for Kim Joon.

Congressman Choi Juseok resigned

from the election not too long ago,

- and joined Kim Joon.

- [Suho] Yes.

Everything that's happening seemed fishy,

so I looked into it.

There's a rumor that says his drug party

was filmed.

So he's the one that took it?

Yes, and Choi Juseok

had someone tail him

[chuckles] and totally got

his butt kicked.

He's the one who took

Congressman Son's slush fund pictures,

which was involved in the embargo.

He majored in photography.

By chance,

is he the one who took my picture?

Did Kim Joon ask him to do it?

I'll keep tracking him.

[Hansang loudly exhales]

[mysterious music continues playing]

[music fades]

[assistant] Great job.

The money you asked for.

Why do you suddenly need that much?

Thank you.

Damn it.

[phone vibrating]

MANAGER JERK

Crap.

I said I'd pay you back.

You don't have parents or siblings,

but you got yourself a pushover.

It's about your private loan, punk.

He paid it all.

Call me if you ever need money.

- Okay?

- [call disconnects]

[soft music playing]

[Minhyuk exhales]

That's a hefty price

for borrowing a diary.

[Seonyul] Stop gambling.

DEBT PAYMENT CONFIRMATION

DEBTOR: GWON MINHYUK

AMOUNT: 25,000,000 WON

A FULL PAYMENT FOR THE DEB

HAS BEEN NOTARIZED

[paper rustling]

[sighs]

[suspenseful music playing]

WE PRAY THE TWO VICTIMS OF THE FIRE

AT YANGPYEONG CABIN REST IN PEACE.

[man] The victims you asked about

were laid to rest at Seongshin Memorial.

[Soohyun] Gunwoo.

Mommy's here.

[suspenseful music continues playing]

[phone vibrating]

[phone continues vibrating]

Hello?

[Seonyul] What are you doing?

Are you busy?

If you haven't eaten,

do you want to eat together?

I'm at a restaurant by Yeongseong Market.

Where?

It's hot. Be careful.

- Eat up.

- Thank you.

Restaurant Purenebom.

Don't you want to come?

[suspenseful music continues playing]

- Ma'am?

- [Goeun] Yes?

[exhales]

- Thank you for the meal.

- I thought a friend was coming.

I guess not. I'll bring her next time.

[chuckles] Okay. Sure.

Always be careful on your bike.

- Okay.

- [lady] Excuse me?

- I'd like to order.

- Sure. Bye.

[Joon] We have to make a country

where young people can live well.

What's the point of saying it

over and over again?

Send them on vacation.

The government should give them

an allowance.

[people cheering]

They try to get a job,

and they're judged on their English,

volunteer experience, certificates,

internships, and more.

- They work all day to

- Enjoy.

build those qualifications.

Studying both day and night in cafes.

It breaks my heart.

This way.

[Joon sighs]

[chuckles] I'm so sorry for calling

such a busy person like you

all the way here.

Take a seat.

I was famished after trying to please

the young people.

I started without you.

- Would you like a drink?

- No.

We're not close enough to share

our feelings over a drink, are we?

This is why I like you, Director Kang.

Right?

[inhales]

[mysterious music playing]

When it comes to skate,

the nose is my favorite.

I just love this

pungent taste.

What is it you want to say?

When skate is left out of a feast,

the table could be filled

with nothing to eat.

I want to have a feast.

Will you join me?

So you're asking me

to be the skate at your feast?

Is that it? [chuckles]

My camp has a k*ller view.

I'm thinking of setting up a room for you.

I'm sure you're sick

of broadcasting by now.

How about a change of scenery?

This is unexpected.

[dramatic music playing]

I'm sure there's a line of people

waiting to join up with you.

So why me of all people?

Even college kids like you.

What do they call you?

"The people's husband"?

You shouldn't set all your affections

to your wife.

Let's make this country

a good place to live.

Aren't you curious how sweet

the government's payroll would be?

[Suho chuckles softly]

I don't know.

I appreciate it, but

I don't like sweets.

You can keep all that sweet food

to yourself, Congressman.

I should get going.

By the way,

one food I hate is fermented skate.

It smells rotten.

Like someone I know.

Enjoy.

[dramatic music continues playing]

Director Kang,

you will come back to me.

Do you want to bet on it?

[chuckles softly]

- Bring it to me.

- [assistant] Yes, sir.

Such

[exhales]

strong ties.

[Suho] Hansang?

Do you know why I came this far

and endured everything?

If it weren't for Kim Joon,

the man who k*lled my son

wouldn't have gotten off that easily.

None of this would've happened to Soohyun.

All of it.

It's all because of him.

I couldn't do anything then

because I had no power,

but this time

I'm going to go all the way.

[tense music playing]

What about him?

He climbed higher than you did.

To be honest, helping you

kind of worries me.

We lost our jobs over

the Buyeongdong Corruption,

but you know what type of punk

Kim Joon is.

[scoffs]

We were naive then. We went at him

with nothing up our sleeves.

This time, I have something

that can wring him by the neck.

What is it?

I'll tell you once I put it together

a little more.

Tell me what it is.

[tense music continues playing]

Kim Joon has

an illegitimate child.

An illegitimate child?

Will that be enough?

What if his mistress

is the one laundering

his political slush funds?

Is that tempting enough?

Who is it?

Do you have proof?

[energetic music playing]

I'm almost there.

Hansang.

I left Soohyun behind like that

and went to States to climb to the top.

I don't care if it crumbles down now.

I'll do whatever I can to stop

Kim Joon from becoming the president.

So help me, okay?

[dramatic music playing]

I think he's the one that clears

the path for Kim Joon.

[music ends]

Hey, it's been ages!

[Eunmin crying]

- [lady 1] Don't you have any manners!

- [man 1] He was a k*ller!

- Go to hell!

- [man 2] He k*lled a child!

- So shameless!

- [man 1] Funeral?

He doesn't deserve a funeral!

- [lady 2] He's being punished!

- [lady 3] Enough.

- Don't do this.

- [Eunmin] No, Seonyul.

[people clamoring]

- Let go of me!

- [lady 1] Why would you come here?

- What are you doing? m*rder*r!

- [lady 1 screaming]

[Eunmin crying]

Hold back.

Mom.

[lady 1] Why would they be violent?

[solemn music playing]

[both crying]

[Joon sighs]

[Eunmin sniffles]

[Eunmin sniffles]

Don't worry.

I'll be your father

from now on.

[solemn music continues playing]

Take a seat.

Did you eat?

I already ate.

You've become so handsome!

Well, how's your mother?

How cruel, right?

She should think of her son, and wake up.

[clicks tongue]

How are you feeling, Congressman?

It's just us. Be yourself.

You don't have to call me that.

Just call me Mr. Kim.

[sighs]

I heard you're a good worker.

But I'm not happy about that at all.

You even got accepted to a med school.

Why are you working for me?

Stop wasting that brain of yours,

and go back to med school.

I'll pay your tuition.

- I don't want to bother you anymore.

- That's your problem.

You can lean on me

and ask for help if you need it.

That's what living is about.

[dramatic music playing]

You know,

I work for the people

trying to do politics,

and there's not much to it.

Growing talent like you

is what's good for the people.

What if your mother saw you like this?

Do you think she'll be proud of you?

You help with my mother's hospital fees.

It's more than enough.

Tsk-tsk-tsk.

You deserve so much better.

Seonyul.

Yes?

Your father died in vain,

but shouldn't you protect your mother?

That means you must come to your senses.

Will you waste your life hating the person

that did this to your parents?

[dramatic music continues playing]

You thought I didn't know?

Once I enter the Blue House,

I'll make sure you get your justice.

Don't do anything foolish, and trust me.

I promise

I'll be of strength to you.

[dramatic music continues playing]

[music fades]

[objects clattering]

[engine revving]

- Where did you go?

- I had something to tend to.

Hey, but who is she?

- Who?

- Over there.

She really had an air about her.

[metal clattering]

[suspenseful music playing]

Did you enjoy

your meal?

Yes.

That's my mom's restaurant.

Really?

I'm a regular there.

I told you to come to the restaurant.

Why did you come here?

I was a little far away.

I was at your parents' memorial.

Why did you go there?

I just

wanted to apologize.

[suspenseful music continues playing]

[sighs]

I'm late.

Did you see my text?

I'll call you soon.

CLOSED

[Yuri sighs]

[exhales]

[Yuri] What were you thinking?

Then you never should've come back.

I want to erase everything too.

I'd erase it all if I could.

Do you know that?

[exhales]

[mysterious music playing]

[music fades]

- [Kuri] Hey, sis!

- [bell chimes]

[Soohyun] Hey, Yuri. You're here.

I've been working late so much lately.

I came to recharge.

Mom's food always recharges me.

- Soohyun!

- You didn't call. What brings you here?

I just missed you.

Mom?

Did anything happen today?

What could happen?

I have two daughters who came to see me.

I feel so lucky today. [chuckles]

Sit down. I'll bring you something to eat.

Are you hungry?

The food's ready.

- Take that with you.

- Take it out?

[Goeun] Yes. This too.

- Just take this too, okay?

- [Yuri] Okay.

- And the mushrooms?

- [Goeun] Yes.

- Eat up.

- Wow.

- It smells great.

- Mother.

- [bell chimes]

- [Soohyun] Hey.

Suho?

- Hi. [chuckles nervously]

- I called him.

- You're right on time.

- [chuckles softly]

[Goeun] Come on in. Sit down.

- Well? Come on.

- Okay.

[suspenseful music playing]

- I'll bring more rice.

- No.

I'll get it.

[Suho exhales]

[chuckles softly]

Why are you two

so quiet today?

What?

You're both acting very strange.

[scoffs]

- Honey

- [Yuri] To be honest

The day

[dramatic music playing]

I saw you at Mom's house,

I was very emotional.

I kind of went off on Suho.

Yuri. Why did you do that?

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry about that.

I'm so upset with you.

Suho,

try to be understanding.

Yes.

[music fades]

I'm sorry.

I didn't want you to worry over me.

I should be sorry.

[sighs]

Honey.

Let's stay like this for a moment.

[Soohyun exhales]

[Soohyun] Why did he send a picture

without her face?

[machine whirring]

- [machine whirring]

- [bell chiming]

Welcome!

Auntie?

- Seonyul went to see you?

- Yes.

It was about the victim of the fire.

He asked if it was too late

to get treatment.

[exhales] Pisses me off.

- What is?

- Seonyul and that woman.

They keep getting involved.

- Ms. Eun Soohyun?

- [Sujin] Yes.

[sighs]

They both strangely resemble each other.

Is it because of their wounds?

Don't I have wounds?

Seonyul's the type that can't stand back

and watch people in pain.

But why is that woman

so interested in him?

- Who does she think she is?

- I think she's a good person.

Sujin.

I wish

- you wouldn't do anything to her

- No.

That woman is evil to Seonyul.

If she's evil to him,

she's evil to me.

[phone vibrating]

[Jinhui] I got in touch with the detective

in charge of the case on Kim Eunmin.

I'm sending you his contact info.

[Soohyun] Thank you so much.

SONGSEO POLICE STATION

Yes.

In Kim Eunmin's accident,

the pedestrian was jaywalking

and was closed a long time ago.

But the accident didn't take place

at dawn or anything.

- Were there no witnesses?

- No.

That's why it was closed so quickly.

And the perpetrator?

- How are they now?

- Goodness.

I can't tell you that.

I don't know either.

But right after the accident,

they said the entire family moved.

But why are you so interested

in Kim Eunmin's case?

I heard her son

kept digging around for information.

[mysterious music playing]

That's right. He even filed a petition

seeking justice for his mom.

He wrote a lot of posts online too.

[call connects]

Taeho.

Let's have lunch.

Soohyun.

Hey, Taeho.

[Taeho breathing heavily]

I'm sorry. Were you waiting long?

I know you're busy, it's fine.

I wanted to buy you something nice.

Next time when I'm off,

I'll buy you something nice.

It's on me. Eat up.

[Taeho] Okay.

To be honest

I wanted to ask you something.

What is it?

The man you saw in room 1405 before.

- Do you remember?

- That's right! Silly me.

I even called you about that.

I know him.

[foreboding music playing]

He was one of the underclassmen

at my med school.

EXPEDITION TO THE PEAK

FIFTH ANNUAL FAMILY SPRING PICNIC

He received heart surgery three times

at our university hospital.

[music fades]

[engine revving]

[machine whirring]

[phone vibrating]

Hey, Seonyul. I think you got a text.

[Soohyun] Let's meet up.

[exhales]

[sighs]

[foreboding music playing]

[dramatic music playing]

[Soohyun] I think

what happened was wrong.

However,

if I were to go back in time

I would still make the same choice.

I don't seek

leniency.

[dramatic music continues playing]

[people clamoring]

- Punish the m*rder*r!

- Soohyun!

Move! Move! Soohyun!

- Soohyun!

- Will you file for an appeal?

[lady] Why did you refuse

to have your sentence reduced?

- Don't you feel guilty at all?

- [man] Forgive Eun Soohyun!

- Forgive Eun Soohyun!

- [Suho] Soohyun!

Soohyun!

[people clamoring]

[man] Forgive Eun Soohyun!

[dramatic music continues playing]

Move out of the way!

- Move out of the way!

- Make way!

Inmate 4811! Stay with me!

[dramatic music continues playing]

[kids singing]

[dramatic music continues playing]

- [Seonyul] Great job, guys. See you later.

- [kids] Okay!

CLOSE TO INMATE 0826, JANG HYEONGJA,

THE ARSONIST IN YANGPYEONG IN 2003

[music fades]

[opening theme playing]

[Seonyul] You can use this umbrella.

[engine revs]

[Soohyun on TV] I try

to accept that every day,

but there are times when I can't.

[opening theme continues playing]

A parent who loses a child

still hurts

no matter how much time passes.

[bike accelerates]

[Sujin] I'm curious about something.

Why are you taking

the difficult back road?

You could've just told her who you were.

Because I want to take

everything precious from her.

[lightly grunts]

If I want to do that,

I have to become precious to her too.

[foreboding music playing]

[Soohyun] Seonyul.

I thought about you.

You can use this umbrella.

I think it'll make Gunwoo sad

if he were to see you.

Excuse me?

She felt so sorry.

She sincerely hoped

you'd live a good life

So? How do I look?

Do I look like I'm doing well?

Why do you get hurt so much?

Why do you have so many wounds?

What kind of

wounds?

How did you think I'd live my life?

Don't be so nosy.

Do you think you mean something to me

just because you gave me that diary?

Wouldn't your life be a waste?

Can't you live a proper life?

Think of your parents.

I can't see you ruin yourself anymore.

Where do you get off giving me advice?

You're a m*rder*r.

Do you want to meet the son?

EXPEDITION TO THE PEAK

SIXTH ANNUAL FAMILY SPRING PICNIC

[dramatic music playing]

[Soohyun] Now,

I know

everything.

It's you.

Gwon Seonyul.

[dramatic music continues playing]

[sentimental song playing]

[Soohyun] His son.

[Seonyul] Do you want to meet him?

[Hansang] He's Gwon Jiwoong's son.

[Soohyun] I think you should give me

the victim's information again.

You have a choice too.

I won't forgive anyone

who hurt my parents.

[Soohyun] It wasn't you, was it?

Leave.

[Seonyul] To someone else,

wouldn't it be a tragedy?

He was betrayed by the two people

he loved the most.
