Episode 8
Is this the place?
I think we've come to the right place.
Quite nice.
Looks good enough to stay here for a few days.
Captain Choi, Ryu Jung Kwon
3 Months Later
Hello?
I put the suicide note in his pocket.
Yes, Sir.
The weather will continue to be clear today.
The level of fine dust will be average.
- Later tonight, in the mountain regions,
- Let's eat.
there'll be a shower accompanied by lightning and thunder.
Come on.
Next, Dr. Kim, a researcher at Human Tech,
was found dead in a restricted area along a coastal forest this morning.
Dr. Kim's body showed no signs of foul play,
and given the suicide note, the police pronnounced his death to be a suicide.
Since the m*rder case at Human Tech, the so-called Lieutenant Ha's case,
Dr. Kim had been suffering from severe depression.
Unable to overcome his mental distress, he appears to have made that extreme choice.
Three months have gone by since the Lieutenant Ha's case,
the police have yet to find any clue.
I think I'll have to go.
Why, all of sudden?
I just heard someone died.
Who?
That I don't know.
All I know is that someone died again because of me.
We did end up staying much longer than a few days.
I was scared to go back.
But now, I think I have to, even if I'm scared.
Can't you just forget the whole thing?
Can you?
Your father suddenly showed up and tried to k*ll you. Can you just forget about that?
These sheep here are deseased and weak, so they aren't fit to live with the herd.
I just need to get them back to health and return them to their owner.
When I care for them, I don't think about anything else.
We can't live like this for the rest of our lives without a hope.
We can't live like this and just die.
To these ailing sheep, I'm their hope.
Isn't that enough? Hope shouldn't only be about the unknowable future.
Don't make excuses. We fled from the world.
They say penguins didn't flee to Antarctica.
Rather, they chose to be there.
Do you want to keep fighting? Is that the world you want to live in?
♫ Your eyes, keep your heart. ♫

♫ The light shining through the night ♫

How have you survived all your memories?
♫ Sunk into the sadness ♫
♫ With both my eyes closed. ♫
Live here. With me.
♫ Hold my hand so I am not afraid, ♫
Let's live together.
♫ Let me hold you in my arms. ♫
But I'm not a penguin. Nor is this Antarctica.

♫ Your heart raised me up when ♫
♫ I was weary. ♫

♫ Your image is still so vivid. ♫
♫ Along with my fears, ♫
Should I just live here?

♫ Hold on to the memories. ♫
If I just live, will it go away?
♫ At the end of hope, ♫

Should I just be that penguin?

Human Tech Research Institute
Human Tech Laboratory
What are you doing?
Are you still here?
I'm asking. What are you doing?
Completion
It would've been nice if you came a bit later.
These bloomed in a rush at last.
-What are they?
-This place is too dreary.
I noticed there wasn't a single flower in this entire lab.
With us, getting romantic isn't legal.
They're pretty and nice. Thanks.
Thank you.
I'll take my leave now.
Take them out. I can't have flowers in the lab.
Hold on a sec, Dr. Ryu.
Let's take a look at the log-in history.
Isn't this a hard copy?
Get her.
I thought about this yesterday.
That I lost everything and all was over.
I disagree.
I have nothing more that I want. And this is only the beginning.
What do you mean, "The beginning?"
We have nothing.
No future and no hope.
We have you.
That's a silly thing to say.
And we have me.
You're different from others, so you can live like this. But not me.
I'm just an ordinary person.
Sorry.
It's okay.
I didn't want to be different from others.
So I've lived hiding myself my whole life.
I begged to be looked upon as ordinary, whenever I got found out about my strange power.
But that didn't work with people.
No one accepted me for who I was.
I guess that's because the world is filled with pain.
That's how most people live.
Giving pain and alternately, strength, too.
If you go now, do you have a person like that with you?
A person who gives you strength and comfort?
No, however hard I think.
No one.
Worse, I don't know what to do.
Last night, I thought it'd be better to settle and live here in hiding.
It might've been the rain. I felt at ease.
Then the morning came.
The rain stopped, and do you know how I feel now?
I feel even less confident.
With the clarity of all things, I'm even more scared.
Nevertheless, being here isn't the best thing to do.
It isn't like we're going to have rain every night.
Right, it isn't going to rain every night.
I know.
That's a fantasy. So is this place.
This isn't a real world.
The real world is in reality.
Even if I may get broken and die, I ought to get back to the reality.
Hey, Gu Reum.
The world outside is like scenery.
If I want to take in the view, I will. If I don't, I won't.
Ji Oh.
I'm going.
Stay here one more day.
Take a walk and clear your head.
I hear there're people who generate more static than others.
They say I was like that.
Who told you that?
The man who said he was my father.
Since birth, the problem I had with static was very bad. So I was taken to the place and treated.
That place isn't a hospital.
I guess I was treated there because the man was a researcher.
And he said your father was there, too.
My dad?
I heard him clearly when he said your dad.
Is her name, Hanuel Ae Gu Reum?
He showed me the pictures of his daughter and bragged every day.
That wasn't the place where my father worked.
He said your father was there, though.
How?
He said your father treated me. And that he adored me very much.
I guess that's why he brought me to your house.
And what happened to him?
He set the lab on fire and took you and ran away.
You didn't resist him and followed him obediently.
He tried to sell you off.
And there was an accident. That's just about all I know.
Was my father invovled in any type of research? For instance, the research the man does?
Your father treated me so that he could cure me.
He said your father was a good man.
It's time for you to let him go and your mom, too.
All the surrogates have successfully conceived, and they're in good condition. [ Gestation is counted in lunar months
Does that mean we'll get three more children just like Ji Oh at the end of ten months?
They'll probably be more powerful than Ji Oh.
The key is preventing their cells from dividing too quickly throughout their growth period through continuous injections.
That'll make our Spiritual Leader ecstatic.
She'll rave about the babies with sparkling eyes and tell the world the angels have arrived.
And her followers will flock to her with every dime they have.
Speaking of which, it looks like she makes her daily trip to the cabin.
No need to see. I believe you.
All three baby angels have answered your prayers.
That they'll protect you mothers until their coming to the earth.
Thank you, Spiritual Leader.
I should thank you.
At the end of ten months, all three of you will receive eternal life as the mothers of the angels.
Furthermore, your spirits will be set free, and you'll gain the Eye of God that sees the beginning and the end of the universe.
I'm sure she's peddling to those fanatics stuff like eternal life, gods, the universe and whatnot.
Whether you sell a piece of gum or faith, selling isn't easy.
So I think sales people deserve our respect.
What do you really want to say?
Remember? You promised to give me the rest of the fertilized eggs once they're conceived.
- I do.
- Give them to me.
I've got to collect my pension and quit this place.
The lab, that cult leader and whatnot, I'm sick of it all.
Where are you going to sell them?
Whoever makes the highest bid.
Are you going to be okay with this?
The Spiritual Leader won't sit back and just watch.
Yu Na ran with the research data already.
We might as well put the blame on her for this one, too.
The capsules must be stored in a freezer under identical conditions within 56 hours.
If not, they have to be biologically thawed.
I know that much. I went to school, you know.
What the hell. They're all gone.
I'm positive they were here.
What are you talking about? Where did you put them?
I definitely left them here. And I'm the only one who knows the passcode to this storage room.
When you're the only one who knows, where did they go?
Are you messing with me? Where did you put them?
I am asking you where are they!
Do you want to be found among the homeless when you're dead?
k*lling you is a piece of cake. You won't be even in the news.
I'm telling you. I don't know!
I'm sure I implanted three out of four and kept the rest.
And I'm the only one who knows we have fertilized eggs left.
The fact that you know it alone makes you the culprit. If not, wh-?
I'm sure I implanted three out of the four and kept the rest.
And I'm the only one who knows we have fertilized eggs left.
The fact that you know it alone makes you the culprit. If not, wh-?
I'm not locked up here, am I?
Your guards are quite huge.
Can't you decide it yet?
On the contrary, I did some time ago.
Then give me the research data and the fertilized eggs.
You promised me one thing I want, if I bring them to you before the director snatched them away. Remember?
Whether it's a person or a thing.
I did say that.
I want Team Leader's freedom. Then I'll give all that I have.
Show me your goods first. Then I'll do as you ask.
No. Promise me first.
You're in no position to bargain with me.
Once the women downstairs give births, I don't need you or the fertilized eggs.
All I want is Team Leader's freedom. That's enough.
I had a feeling. Still, you're bringing tears to my eyes.
But hasn't it occurred to you that I could k*ll him to get you to talk?
Don't be so naive.
Or else, you'll live at the bottom all your life.
I won't sit still and just take it.
What, are you going to k*ll me then?
I am.
Thinking the way you do makes you naive. How frustrating.
Ji Oh.
What's up? What happened?
I thought it might live, if only for a moment.
I thought I could save it.
Was it sick to begin with, or did it get sick?
It was born fragile.
Are you okay?
It was weak at birth. So it couldn't suckle the breasts of its mother.
It was brought here and barely nursed back to health.
Looks like it wasn't adept at adjusting to the rest of the herd.
It was rejected by its own kind just as I am.
I'll stay here for a few more days, but not too long.

Are you saying the ultrasound test results aren't coming along?
I hear some micro-electric currents run through the fetuses and interfere with their currents.
Though we can hardly see the fetuses, I'm told they're healthy.
The day of glory we've all been awaiting for decades is soon coming. Nothing must go wrong.
Are you still looking for Yu Na?
If she'd sold or transferred the eggs, she would've popped up in my search radar, but there's been no trace of her, yet.
I'm inclined to think she's keeping them like an insurance policy.
An insurance policy?
Do you have any insurance policies that I don't know about, Director?
Even if I do, would I tell you?
When we plant seed, we become a united front.
But at the time of harvest, it's our nature to preoccupy ourselves with our own interests in mind.
I advise you not to do that, since my compensation for you will be so lavish you'll think it excessive.
Till the end, don't turn your back on me.
Now that you said it,
I have a feeling it's going to be you who will desert me.
If anyone forsakes anyone, it'll be me. So I'm telling you to not change, Director Kim.
Got it?
- Aren't they so tiny?
- Yeah, really tiny.
Director Kim Cheol Su
- Report the situation.
- Nothing's out of the ordinary.
What about Yu Na?
I haven't seen her yet.
Keep watching.
You can't let his existence come out in the open.
If he marries and produces a child, it's anyone's guess what that'll be.
It's a monster.
and a despicable hybrid. He'll destroy the ecosystem we humans have built.
It's okay.
All is fine.
Gu Reum, are you okay? What is it?
- Why?
- I'm fine.
Does that keep happening?
Sometimes. No, often.
Is it normal for a baby to be this active?
I wouldn't know. It's my first-time pregnancy.
Me too.
Why?
I've never thought about getting married.
Much less having a child before marriage.
I thought a family was the most selfish of all groups made by the weakest of us.
I was confident that I'd never lean on anyone.
So I thought I'd never have a family.
- So you pretended to be strong?
- I did because I was afraid.
What if our baby is born a monster like me?
What if it gets thrown out of the world just as I am?
- Ji Oh.
- I desperately hope it'll take after you.
I hope it won't look like me at all and be beautiful in every way just like you.
You're not a monster.
So our child also is no monster.
Let me hear your answer.
I won't let our baby live the way I do.
I won't let it live like me, even if I have to destroy this world and make a new one.
That's not going to happen.
A monster is a creation of thoughts.
Don't say things like that ever again. Got it?
Okay?
Say it louder.
Come here.
What a good boy.
Won Yi!
It's not my business to know how you've been getting on.
So let's skp the question like how or what we've been doing.
- Have you been well?
- Damn it.
Never mind. Give me the money. Fifteen hundred each. So you owe me, three thousand.
- This isn't a counterfeit, is it?
- What about the IDs?
Where are they?
Here. You're Jin Fengguo, and this woman here is Li Xuenan.
These are the cell phones in those names.
Alien Registration Card
Jin Fengguo
Li Xuenan
-What are these?
-Your IDs.
But these are IDs for foreigners.
Yes, foreign IDs. Jin Fengguo. Li Xuenan.
I asked you to make us driver's licenses.
Be quiet. You're making me confused.
I'm sure you gave me the correct amount of money. You did, right?
Ji Oh, you're a fugitive who committed a crime. You shouldn't be nitpicking about your nationality.
But these are IDs for Chinese.
Be thankful that you get to be Chinese. You punk.
- It's a nation on a par with America.
- Still, these won't work.
They include your medical insurance, so use them for the time being.
A few years later, I'll change them into F5 visas for you.
But getting you the visas for permanent residency is quite expensive. So don't ask for a discount.
I told you I'd need Korean resident IDs.
China is the best.
You know what G2 is, right? They are G2.
Global Number 2. G2.
I'm going to have to register a birth. That's why.
Why would you register your birth? At your age?
- What? Do you want to live your life again as an infant?
- Not me, our baby.
"Our baby?" Who's that?
We're having a baby. I'm going to be a father next month.
Let me get this right. So the lady detective slash m*rder*r and you are having a baby?
You crazy b*stard. You hopeless jerk.
Okay, you two were on the run. And in that circumstance,
you let your passion take over you. Still, you jerk.
It's not true, is it? You're messing with me, right?
It's true.
Hey, you can't. How can you be a dad?
- Okay. What about the wedding?
- We haven't gotten one, yet.
Fine, it won't be too late to get one once you get a paternity test.
- But Ji Oh, that woman is a m*rder*r.
- You got it wrong.
What do you mean, "No"? She's on a wanted list.
Besides, the world is full of criminals. Why out of everyone does it have to be her?
Anyhow, I'll use these for the hospital.
But by next month, you better get me Korean IDs.
- I'll be going then.
- Where are you going, your jerk? Sit down.
Do you have the money to raise that child?
Yeah, I work a little and earn a living.
- Are you willing to raise that child?
- You don't raise a child with willingness.
You've got to. With your willingness. Or else,
your kid ends up like us. Do you get it?
I'll call you when I get your driver's licenses.
Use this for baby formula. Buy the very best.
Hey, Won Yi!
The days have been long and arduous full of trials.
Your due dates are just around the corner, so all of you will be moved to the main santuary.
The others will pack your things for you, so you can just bring yourselves.
Shall we get up now?
I'm asking only because we aren't sure. There is no problem, is there?
- What kind of problem?
- The fetal movements are quite strong.
The intensity of the baby's kicks is... how shall I put this?
It's so strong that my entire body vibrates.
We've never borne children before, but we didn't hear the intensity would be this strong.
The child you're carrying isn't an ordinary child.
These aren't fetal movements, but the proof that the heaven and the earth will shake.
There's one more thing.
Since last month, I felt like there was an electric current coursing through my whole body.
It was more than the shock you get from static.
I thought I was alone, but the others said they felt it, too.
Did you feel an eletric current? A lot?
If it was something tolerable, we wouldn't have come to you.
All of us have lost our consciousness several times.
From my belly, the electric current spread throughout my body.
It felt like all my blood was going to dry up.
They've gone crazy, and yet so beautifully crazy.
- No, let's take it all. Put it in here?
- Yeah.
Take this, too.
If my mom were here, she'd really look after us.
We can live a good life, can't we?
Yes, we can live a really good life. Don't worry.
Thanks for answering the way you just did.
What is it? A gift?
Clothes. Did you buy it?
Did you know how to buy something like this?
How do I look? Pretty?
Pretty.
It's too white to be used for work clothes.
It's not work clothes. It's a wedding dress.
Here I come, come. Let me look at you. Ready?
The photo was taken.
I think it was taken. But maybe, it was taken too soon.
Come take a look.
It took the photo while I was coming over to you.
Hurry, hurry, hurry.
No, wait.
It already took the picture.
This photo came out well. Let's use this.
No, we have to take it again.
Look at it. It's a bit... you know.
- It looks fine to me.
- You look pretty, but I...
I don't look like I'm smiling. And yet, I'm not not smiling. And my hair doesn't look all that great.
Come on, you look just fine. You look cute.
Besides, for wedding pictures, if the woman looks good, then all is okay.
- It's fine.
- Alright, let's take another.
Even if we do, it will look the same.
One, two.
You're so pretty.
So, all there's left to do is for them to give birth to their babies?
There may be some variables depending on the conditions of the fetuses.
You said that the fetuses were healthy.
Regardless of what happens to the mothers, make sure you get the babies.
Ji Oh.
Don't stop breathing. Please keep breathing.
Try breathing from your abdomen.
Main Operation Room
Please push a little more. Breathe. Inhale deeply.
Exhale, and push out your upper abdomen.
Once more time.
I'll inject sedatives.
Tie them down and prepare for surgery. I'll try to get the babies out.
We can see the baby's head.
One more time. Inhale deeply.
Exhale deeply. Push. Good.
A little more. Inhale.
Exhale.
Dr. Ryu.
What will happen to me?
Come to your senses. You must hang on.
It's your baby. You can overcome this.
Fight!
Don't go weak on me!
No!!
Congratulations.
You did a good job today.
Come and hold your baby.
Hold her. It's our baby.
Do you want to hold her later once you're calm?
How can a thing like this happen?
The fetuses were too strong.
Too strong for humans to withstand them.
But Ji Oh was born.
I strengthened their powers more than Ji Oh's.
I stabilized the fetuses enough for the surrogates to withstand them. But as the cells were waking up at the end—
Well, enough.
So what will you do now?
What else? We have no choice but to get Ji Oh back in here.
Let's not talk about things that aren't probable.
Do you have a way?
I extracted the cells from the fetuses, and I'm getting them cultured in the incubators.
That'll only produce the same kinds of fetuses.
Reducing their strengths weaken their powers. But empowering them causes the surrogates to fall apart.
The whole thing shouldn't be like a Moebius strip.
You can just be quiet.
The only way is to catch Ji Oh again.
You're the one who got the lab blown up because you couldn't control Ji Oh.
Are you going to bring Ji Oh here only to blow this place up, too?
Is there a way to decrease the strength of the cells a little?
Although I'll have to modify all the genes again, I'd better try that.
Say, you do the remodification. When will we know if the result is a success or a failure?
We'll know only after we get the fanatics to conceive and wait ten months. correct?
- It would be better if we get the original cells from Ji Oh—
- Hey!
Dr. Ryu does the research, and I fund it. You just pipe down and do what you're told to do.
Don't you know that I'm the one who made you what you are today?
Don't you know it was I who kept you in that organization?
You can't cut me off, but I can cut you. Get a grip.
Okay. I give up.
I'm out.
Director Kim.
I've wasted more than 20 years here.
I'm too old to clean up after a thing that makes no sense.
I hope the two of you make a beautiful day of glory.
Yes, Director?
- Where are you now?
- I'm taking a little break.
Are you still going around looking for Yu Na?
Yes.
k*ll that b*tch later. You have to catch Ji Oh first.
Come to the front of my office.
Director called, so I came—
That b*stard. So rude.
Case summary of a missing person: Ha Yeong Jae and his wife.
I think it's time for you to hand over those fertilized eggs to me.
Give Team Leader his freedom first.
You're the same as ever.
If I keep holding out, you could k*ll me and Team Leader, too. Right?
While knowing that, do you still act this way?
I thought about it, and I concluded it'd be alright to die rather than to live like this.
You are quite stubborn.
Rather, I am strong-willed.
- Are those fertilized eggs safe?
- Yes.
Fine. I'll help set free Lee Son from the hands of Director Kim.
That's enough, right?
- Yes, that's enough.
- I'll make that happen.
Really?
How can you guarantee me that?
Director Jeong.
Lee Son threw a real grenade thinking it was a non-lethal flash grenade during a counter-t*rror1st exercise.
He k*lled nine.
You k*lled five people by mistaking live rounds for blanks during a bilateral training exercise.
You were sentenced to life-in-prison and attempted a suicide. Correct?
Who are you?
Director Kim orchestrated all that.
You didn't have the slightest idea?
I suspected that much.
It's one of the tactics older military men liked to use.
Pushing folks down to hell and then, coming to their rescue.
That way, the folks turn into their devoted sl*ves.
Of course, I don't enjoy using that tactic.
You've been through a lot. But getting back your reputation isn't easy.
And it's impossible for you to get a retrial.
Instead, I'll give you freedom. Plus, a new identity. And money on the side.
How can you prove to me that you aren't the same kind as he?
Not sure. By faith?
We've got a daughter.
I know.
She doesn't look like me at all. She looks after you in every way. What a relief.
I wasn't quite myself, and I didn't get a chance to count her fingers and toes.
I saw them. She has beautiful ten of everything just like you.
We have to name her. Do you have anything in mind?
Can I- Can I name her?
What are you saying? You are her dad.
But still...
Give her a name.
Not a long one like Haneul Ae Gu Reum. Or, nothing as vague as Lee Seol Ran.
Give her a pretty name.
Okay.
Don't use a professional service for naming. Pick one yourself.
Gu Reum, our IDs are here.
Do you have to go now? Can't you go later after I leave the hospital?
I'll be right back.
We should get them quick so we can register our child's birth.
I'll be back soon.
I'm a dad now.
- Are you that happy?
- Yeah.
Yeah. Happy I am. But it's different. I can't really explain it in words.
Of course. If we were good at explaining things, we would've become instructors.
So is it a son or daughter?
Daughter. She's so pretty.
Look at you. You act like a proud parent.
- Name?
- We haven't named her yet.
I thought of one, but I'm afraid if I name her, some of my bad energy might rub off on her.
Right, right, that could happen.
Would it be better if I name her?
After all, I give off better energy than you. And I'm a good person.
- No, you can't.
- Ah, you b*stard.
Take them.
Lee Seol Ran
Kim Bong Guk
Thanks. How much do I owe you?
Well, how about a million dollars?
I still have all the money you gave back to me last time.
Never mind. Consider it my wedding gift to you.
I really don't have to pay?
You can't do that, you jerk.
Any idea how much they're worth? You should, at least, show a token of your appreciation.
Got it.
Hey, I said you're fine. Why bring up money all the time? I told you it's my wedding gift.
Oh, right. These are nutritional supplements.
Give them to that m*rder*r slash detective.
She didn't k*ll anyone.
Sorry. The fugitive detective. I guess she's a mom now.
Thanks. I'll make sure she gets them.
I'll be going now.
What? Not going to have a drink with me?
I think I have to go. Let's drink together next time.
Hey, I went out my way to do a thing that's ill*gal for you. The least you can do is to drink with me.
I can't remember the face of my baby at the moment.
Didn't you say she was pretty?
She's pretty. She is. But I can't remember her face well. So I want to see her again fast.
Alright. Then how about a quick one?
Hey, I didn't get to hold my baby yet.
Go. Get lost, you jerk.
Thanks, Won Yi.
Just how grateful are you?
I will be grateful to you for 50 years.
You'll grow old and die just thanking me if you do that for 50 years at your age.
Thanks for being friends with a guy like me.
I hope I'm not getting an electric shock or anything like that.
Look at that.
It hurts. Let go.
I'm going.
Yes?
Ms. Lee Seol Ran, it's time to sanitize the room for the newborn.
Please take your baby.
Yes.
At the site of the accident, remains of two bodies were found in a car.
After identifying the license plate, the police believe that the deceased are
Ha Yeong Jae and his wife, Lee Yeon Gyeong.
The couple went missing 20 years ago.
Because they fell in a valley that's rarely visited by people,
they couldn't be found until now.
Compared to the minor damage done to the exterior of the vehicle when it was found,
it's been reported the vehicle's interior was completely burned.
The National Forensic Service was unable to find any remains of inflammables or the point of the origin of the fire.
And considering all the interior wirings of the vehicle were also burned,
NFS presumes that electricity of tremendous voltage went through the vehicle.
What's wrong?
Dad! Dad!
Juan Metropolitan Police Agency
Yes, Crime Investigative Unit One.
Hello?
Hello?
Seonbae-nim.
Yes, who is this?
Seonbae, it's me.
I don't know any younger females who would call—
Wait, you—
Hey, it's you. Right?
Yes, it's me.
You- where are you right now?
Are you alone now?
Of course not.
You remember my number, right? Write it down.
Hey, where are you?
Hey, you. Do you think living on the run will solve your case?
It's not me. I didn't do that.
I know that. Even if the evidence is perfect, I know it isn't you.
There're many strange things about the case.
Let me ask you one thing.
What is it?
What happened in the case of Ha Yeong Jae?
Ha Yeong Jae? Who is that?
The man went missing 20 years ago.
Oh, that case. What about it?
Was it really the high-voltage electricity that caused what happened to him?
We wouldn't know. That's what the NFS says, so we assume that's what happened.
The car was fine on the outside,
but the inside was completely burned with the wirings and all. So that's a possibility.
But why do you ask that?
Please get me a DNA sample from the remains.
Hey, Gu Reum. You're not in a position to be doing this.
Contact me once you get the sample.
And you must never tell Team Captain.
I will contact you later.
Hey? Hello? Hello?
What the heck.
Why are you so surprised?
Surprised? Who's surprised?
I heard you whispering. Who were you talking to?
Are you cheating on your wife?
Cheating on my wife? Come on.
Just some younger person, I know.
- A woman?
- No, a man.
Oh, I have to pee. I need to use the bathroom.
It's me.
Look into the call records for the call just made to the office, and to Detective Kim Yu Cheol.
He said your father treated me. And that he adored me very much.
I guess that's why he brought me to your house.
It's time for you to let your father go and your mom, too.
What's wrong?
Do you want me to hold you, Sweetie?
There.
Hospital Entrance
Where is the new mom in Room 303 and the baby?
What's the name of your wife?
Haneul- It's Lee Seol Ran.
Did you say, "Lee Seol Ran?"
- She checked out.
- What?
She checked out a little while ago with her guardian.
But I am her guardian.
She paid the hospital and left the hospital with her guardian.
- But I'm the guardian, her husband.
- Oh, I see.
Your wife left with the guardian, though.
With whom?
What's going on?
He's a Korean-Chinese. I've been telling him his wife left the hospital, but he insists he's her husband.
Hello, Nurse. You remember me, right? I've been here all this time.
You can't cause a scene here.
But I'm her husband. Who did she leave with-
Can I look at the CCTV here?
We do have CCTVs, but we must obey the personal information protection law.
Unless you're authorized, it's difficult for you to see the cameras.
Check against this ID the signature I used on the guardian consent form when my wife was admitted.
Hold on a sec.
Do you know that man?
Detective Ha?
I'm not that person. Who are you?
Hey, I remember you.
Who are you?
You'll wake up your baby.
Listen to me if you want your baby to live.
We will leave here quietly.
Pack your bag and pay the hospital. All very naturally.
Give me my baby.
Once we get there.
Where are you taking me?
Just give me my baby and I'll follow you quietly.
Please.
What is your identity? How are you involved with Detective Kim?
Whose baby is that?
My baby.
I hope Ji Oh isn't the father of your baby.
L.U.C.A.: The Beginning
Do they know you're that kind of jerk?
♫ Find tree. ♫
Where is Gu Reum?
k*ll them all. Don't leave any traces behind.
Live for yourself. Not for me.
That can't be true.
Is Ji Oh the father of your baby?
You could die, you punk.
I don't care anymore. For the first time in my life, I have the desire to live.
And I've got courage, too.
Did Ji Oh really do that?
If you touch Gu Reum and our baby, you are all dead.
It really is Ji Oh, right?
♫ Everything I’ve got just ♫
♫ follow the noise, follow the whispered breeze ♫
