It's all in the past.

Thank you for teaching me
and taking care of me as well.
I promise to repay
that debt.
[thrilling music continues playing]
[Suho] I will never
disappoint you again.
I promise.
Hyegeum did?
[Suho] Yes.
I ran into her by chance
at Gunwoo's grave.
Turns out she went to see Gunwoo
from time to time.
I was so grateful.

What brings you here
- this late?
- Hyegeum.
Yes?
Where's Heejae?
Uh
he's sleeping.
Why were you at the hotel
with my husband?
[exhales]
[soft music playing]
[Soohyun] By chance,
is this you?
I'm sorry,
Soohyun.
But this happened when you weren't around.
We met at Gunwoo's grave a few times,
and it broke my heart
every time I saw him.
I should've stopped
after just consoling him.
Just answer my question.
Did you send me this?
No, I swear.
We only met today so he could ask me
the same thing.
[exhales]
[exhales] I'm sorry I hurt you.
- Soohyun!
- Never
say my name again.
[door closes]
Honey.
Soohyun.
Soohyun!
Honey!
Honey, please
We need to talk. Please.
I'm sorry.
I wasn't honest with you before.
It's all over.
I was afraid this would happen to you.
It shouldn't have been her.
No matter how much comfort you needed.
Not her.
- Soohyun.
- I could give in a hundred times.
What else could I do? I wasn't around.
But
why did my mom have to see that picture?
[tense music playing]
It was sent to your mother?
[exhales]
[Suho sighs]
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
But
I'm sure someone did this on purpose
to defame me.
I'm going to find out who it is
and sort this out.
Can you give me some time? Please?
I'll stay at my mom's house
for the time being.
Soohyun.
[breathing heavily]
I want to stay by her side.
I'm sure she was startled too.
[Suho] Soohyun.
[sighs]
[exhales]
What kind of bastard did this?
[all laughing]
Spending all day
climbing a mountain
and sweating together like this.
It feels like we're a team now.
- Right?
- [man] That's right.
[Juseok] That's what I'm saying.
Let's cheers to our captain who will sail
the sea called "Korea."
Raise your glasses.
[all laughing]
I, Kim Joon,
will do my best at navigating.
Now, to our party and country.
- Cheers to Congressman Kim Joon!
- Cheers!
[all laughing]
- I'm going to the bathroom.
- Okay.
You scared me.
Why are you in front
of the men's restroom?
Why are you following us?
[tense music playing]
- What?
- 5-8-U-4-1-8-1.
1-8-BU-8-7-8-5.
What are you saying?
[exhales]
- You little
- If I press this button,
this will be all over the media.
If you bother us ever again,
you'll get hurt.
[exhales]
LOOK AT THE STARS AGAIN
WHEN YOU'RE IN PAIN
[soft music playing]
[soft music continues playing]
If you go through a hard time
after reading this,
call me.
I know a bit about photos.
You can call me if you need my help.
[suspenseful music playing]
[music fades]
Mom.
[Goeun] Have some.
Mom.
Do you want to stay here for a few days?
[soft music playing]
Yes.
Mom.
I'm going to find out
who sent that photo,
so please don't worry.
Let's not
Let's not get shaken up by this.
What will you do when you find out
who sent it?
Don't get involved in that.
What good will it do if you get hurt?
That's what they want.
I won't think about it,
so you don't think about it either.
At times like this, we should eat well
and sleep well too.
You just need to get it together
and live your life.
It's nothing, Soohyun.
It's no big deal.
[soft music continues playing]
Why did my mom have to see that picture?

TENACIOUS DETECTIVE LEE ARRESTS
THE SERIAL KILLER
LOCAL NEWS REPORTER KANG SUHO
[Hansang] No wear or tear on the crown.
There's no rust.
The waterproof ring
just needs to be changed.
It's like you own the place now.
Detective Lee.
- [Hansang laughs]
- [Suho exhales]
S GOLD
Detective my foot. I was fired ages ago.
- [sighs]
- You look like you need something.
[Suho sighs]
[suspenseful music playing]
I need to find someone.
A strange photo was delivered
to Soohyun recently.
Find out who sent it.
A photo?
Don't look at it like that.
It's all in the past.
That means they've been watching you
since then.
Right?
Could this be Kim Joon?
He was the reason we got fired.
We might as well find out.
I can't trust anyone.
Except you.
[phone vibrating]
Yes, sir?
Who?
[foreboding music playing]
Hey. You're here.
- Yes.
- Director Kang.
Goodness.
How long has it been? [laughing]
It's been a while.
He came to see you after his luncheon.
I saw your segment.
You and your wife
seem to be doing well still.
[CEO] The reactions
have been very positive.
You should appear as a guest one day
on his news segment.
Well
I'm sure there will be an opportunity.
My wife received
an anonymous gift recently.
Were you the one who sent it?
[smacking lips]
Seeing as you thought I sent it,
- it must've been very expensive.
- [scoffs]
I didn't ask to hear your answer.
Whether you sent it or not,
if you're behind it,
you'll have to pay a bigger price.
[dramatic music playing]
Kang Suho.
How interesting.
[smacking lips] Keep an eye on him.
Yes, sir.
- Thank you.
- Goodbye.
I'll take a bundle.
[soft music playing]
Eat this.
Table three is ready.
- [Soohyun] Okay, Mom.
- Okay.
- [girl] I'd like to order.
- Okay. Welcome.
- What can I get you?
- One bibimbap.
- One kimchi stew.
- [man] Can we pay?
Okay!
- [man] I don't need the receipt.
- [keys beeping]
- [Goeun] Table five is ready.
- Okay!
Have a great day.
[soft music continues playing]
[suspenseful music playing]
[Soohyun] Who sent it?
Why?
GWON SEONYUL
MEET ME AT SOLGANG NURSING CENTER AT 2.
[keys beeping]
[Soohyun] I'm a little busy right now.
Where are you?
- Let's get drinks.
- [man 1] Not tonight.
- [man 2] Great job.
- [man 3] I'm exhausted.
[door closes]
[Seonyul] You must have a lot of time
on your hands seeing how you came here.
You're busy. It's the least I can do.
Here. Eat this.
Have you been working here long?
A guy I know runs this place.
Is it worth the pay?
You know
I like it here
because this is where things end.
What about you? Don't you work?
Work?
I don't know.
What does it feel like
to want to do something?
I can't really remember.
Don't you have any other relatives?
Not anyone who I can call family.
Then what about your meals?
Why?
Do you pity me?
No.
You can eat a lot of ramyun at your age.
I ate a lot at your age too.
Still, call me if you ever get sick of it.
[Seonyul] Drink this.
Why do you get hurt so much?
You were the same the last time I saw you.
Why do you have so many wounds?
What kind of
wounds?
[soft music playing]
I have another part-time job
aside from this.
So that job's dangerous.
That's what pays the most.
How did you
think I'd live my life?
Money's nice,
but try to avoid dangerous work.
Don't you
feel pain?
What happened there?
I just
got hurt.
Did it hurt?
No.
Things like this
don't hurt at all.
It's the same for me.
Things like this
don't hurt at all.
Did you figure out the photo?
They took that photo with a film camera
instead of a digital one.
It wasn't a private detective agency.
How can you know that from just looking
at the photo?
I do a lot of odd jobs on the side.
I also find people too.
Do you want me to look into it for you?
PHARMACY
Even if it's not painful,
stop getting hurt.
Take care of yourself.
[mysterious music playing]
JUNKYARD
[music fades]
[Sujin] Hey, Seonyul! That woman!
Have you eaten?
There's a lunchbox over there.
Did that woman bring it?
- Yes.
- What?
She's really acting like your guardian.
Did you look into it?
What? That's right.
You owe me big time for this.
I brought something big.
I looked into some security footage
at illegal gambling sites,
and I found him.
Is this him?
- Good job.
- [Sujin giggles] Hey.
- What will you do without me?
- Without you?
I'd just keep living without you.
Hey!
How could you say that?
No.
I won't let it slide today.
Pay it back
with your body today.
What's with you?
[Sujin screaming]
[Sujin screaming]
Do you like it that much?
Wow! My heart's going to burst!
I love it!
Hey, can you feel my heart racing?
[Sujin screaming]
[Soohyun] Even if it's not painful,
don't get hurt anymore.
Take care of yourself.
- [Sujin screaming]
- [engine revving]
[Soohyun] There was nothing
in the first photo.
[mysterious music playing]
A JAYWALKING WOMAN IN CRITICAL CONDITION
AFTER BEING HIT BY A TRUCK
[Soohyun] What does this article
have to do with the photo?
BLUEBIRD NEWS REPORTER JEONG JINHUI
Is that so?
By chance,
can you tell me where she works now?
Hello.
I'm the one that made the inquiry.
I'm Eun Soohyun.
Is there a reporter by the name
of Jeong Jinhui in the culture department?
[mysterious music continues playing]
Hello, Reporter Jeong Jinhui.
I'm writing you
because I'd like to ask you
about an article you wrote in 2017.
Please, write me back when you get this.
From Eun Soohyun.
YOUR EMAIL HAS BEEN SEN
[phone vibrating]
Yes, Mother.
This one on the right
focuses on the basic care with collagen.
Is that so?
This is nice too. [chuckles]
Let's take this one too. Yes.
- [sales lady] Yes, ma'am. I'll prepare it.
- [Myunghee chuckles]
[gasps] Goodness.
It looks great on you. [laughs]
Isn't she beautiful?
We'll take this too.
Mother, wait
[sales lady] I'll wrap it up for you.
[lounge music playing in background]
Today's coffee is good.
Drink some.
Aren't you Eun Soohyun?
I saw your segment.
- You two look great together.
- [Myunghee chuckles]
- Thank you.
- Sure.
She's my daughter-in-law.
Goodness. I'm a huge fan of Kang Suho!
[laughs] Thank you so much.
I hope you can support
my daughter-in-law as well.
Yes, ma'am.
We're rooting for you.
- Have a good time. Bye.
- Okay, thank you.
- Take care.
- Thank you.
So you're staying at your mother's.
[laughs]
The people at your mother's
merchant association sure are quick.
Word has spread to me.
[sighs]
Words can be a scary thing.
It can get so inflated.
What if a rumor spreads
that you two are having issues?
What will happen to Suho's image?
He said you two will try your best
in front of the nation.
He made that promise. [laughs]
[soft piano tune playing]
You decided to endure and bear it.
At least pretend to take responsibility.
Must you force me to get involved
and pretend like we're on good terms?
I won't ask you
why you're at your mother's.
However,
your carelessness must stop here.
[chuckles]
Soohyun.
Control your expressions.
[chuckles]
[Goeun] I'm having dinner with the people
from the merchant's association.
I'll be home late tonight.
Take this time to rest up, my daughter.
[emotional music playing]
[sniffles]
[phone vibrating]
[Goeun] I'm having dinner with the people
from the merchant's association.
I'll be home late tonight.
Take this time to rest up, my daughter.
[flips phone shut]
[crying]
[Yuri] Soohyun?
- What's wrong? What is it?
- Nothing. [sniffles]
- Why are you crying?
- [voice trembling] No, it's nothing.
What is it?
[coughs, sniffles]
Tell me.
Soohyun.
It's nothing.
[Yuri] Soohyun's crying.
You said you'd live a good life.
You promised it in front of people.
The woman next door?
You know that was wrong.
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?
I'm going out of my mind
because I'm scared of losing Soohyun.
[Hyegeum sighs]
[Goeun] Now, let's have some lunch.
[Soohyun sighs]
[Soohyun groans]
Here.
Soohyun?
Don't you want to go back to work?
Yuri told me
you got an offer from your old college
to give special lectures.
If you don't think
you can stand in front of people,
you could write again.
Why, Mom?
You don't like seeing me like this?
No, it's such a waste.
[soft music playing]
Who cares if it's not a college?
You can teach children and write again.
I was so impressed with you then.
So do whatever you want.
I'll always be on your side.
I'll support you, okay?
- Eat up.
- [phone vibrating]
Mom, just a second.
Hello?
REPORTER JEONG JINHUI
I didn't think I'd meet you like this.
I always wanted to interview you
if I got the chance.
I was wondering about
the inquiry I emailed you before,
about the accident.
The woman who was hit by a truck
after jaywalking.
To be honest,
I was very surprised to learn
that you were curious about her.
Excuse me?
Do you [sighs]
have to know about it?
What do you mean by that?
[suspenseful music playing]
[Jinhui] I think it'll be better
if you don't know.
By chance,
does it
have to do with me somehow?
[Jinhui] The woman who was in
the accident was Kim Eunmin.
Do you know who that is?
[Soohyun] Do you remember
which hospital was she taken to?
[suspenseful music continues playing]
[call connecting]
- [lady] When will you buy it for us?
- [phone vibrating]
Hey, Soohyun.
What favor?
Just a moment.
Who?
Okay. I will.
Doctor, the patient that came up
from ICU yesterday
- just went into cardiac arrest. Hurry.
- [Taeho] Let's go.
- Get the crash cart and defibrillator.
- [receptionist] Okay.
KIM EUNMIN
What?
Where did it go?
Shoot.
Gwon Seonyul. He took my car.
Is he insane? Why did he take my car?
I have a date. Crap!
MEN'S BATH
[thrilling music playing]
[Sujin] I checked
criminal records like you said.
He's a gambling addict.
Plus robbery and assault.
He was in and out of prison
a few times recently.
They say those who gamble can't stop
gambling even their arm gets cut off.
I looked into some security footage
at illegal gambling sites,
and I found him.
Is this him?
[thrilling music continues playing]
[indistinct conversation]
[indistinct conversation]
[dealer] Customers
[man 1] Thank you.
[indistinct conversation]
- [man 2] I'm on fire tonight.
- [lady] You should be careful.
- I swear
- [clattering]
[Minhyuk] Damn it. Seriously?
What the hell did I do?
[manager] Hey! Here we go again.
I didn't do anything!
The dealer messed around.
Hey, I told you not to come here,
you punk.
Don't come here, you bum.
[thrilling music playing]
- [guard] Are you crazy?
- [Minhyuk grunts]
- Bring him to the office.
- [Minhyuk groans]
Hey!
[alarm blaring]
There's a crackdown!
- Crackdown!
- Hey, crackdown!
[groans]
[man grunts]
- Hurry!
- Hurry up!
[people clamoring]
- [man 1] Hey! Damn it!
- [man 2] Run!
What do I do? Hurry!
[alarm continues blaring]
[people clamoring]
- [woman] What's going on?
- Don't move.
Everyone, don't move.
- [Seonyul] Run!
- [cop] Don't move
[lady clamoring]
[intense music playing]
[grunts]
[groans]
[Minhyuk groans]
[Minhyuk groans]
Go downstairs right away!
[intense music continues playing]
INTENSIVE CARE UNI
[Taeho exhales]
[sighs]
Oh, right.
Nurse?
Have you seen the piece of paper
I was writing on earlier?
- Here it is.
- Thank you so much. [chuckles]
Let's see.
KIM EUNMIN
HANKOOK UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL
HANKOOK UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL
[Taeho] Soohyun, I looked into it.
She's still at our hospital right now.
[thrilling music playing]
[tires screeching]
EMERGENCY CENTER
[Seonyul grunts]
[foreboding music playing]
The woman who was in
the accident was Kim Eunmin.
KIM ♪♪♪MIN
Do you know who that is?
[exhales]
She's the wife of the person
that you killed.
[dramatic music playing]
[exhales]
[dramatic music continues playing]
[closing theme playing]
[Soohyun] I was looking for someone.
[Suho] I was afraid
to lose Soohyun too.
[Soohyun] I'm done
sorting through my emotions.
[Seonyul] It represents
the mom and son
holding on to each other,
not wanting to let go.
[Soohyun] You think it's planned
[Seonyul grunts]
[Soohyun] not an accident
[Seonyul] Where do you get off
giving me advice?
You're a murderer.
