Missing: The Other Side (2020) s01e06 Episode Script
Episode 6
ALL CHARACTERS, LOCATIONS, ORGANIZATIONS,
RELIGIONS, AND EVENTS
IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTITIOUS
This goes down smoothly,
but it feels fiery inside. I like it.
Let me tell you about this liquor.
When Chun-hyang and Mong-ryong parted,
Chun-hyang had her maid Hyang-dan
bring a bottle of this.
Mong-ryong drank it
and fell for Chun-hyang,
and ended up staying with her.
So Chun-hyang used this liquor
to seduce him?
When I was young,
my mother told me this story
as she made me sterilize the bottle
with burning straw.
Whenever I drink this liquor,
I'm reminded of my mother.
Now that I've had a glass
I'm reminded of my mom.
What was your mother like?
My mom?
My mom was…
Chan-ho is Sung Chan-ho
and Jin-hee is Jung Jin-hee.
Why am I Kim Wook?
-What do you mean by that?
-Their names are three syllables.
But mine is only two.
Why do you think
your name is two syllables?
You're not just Wook.
You are Sunshine Wook.
A person who brightens up the world.
Sunshine Wook.
It's more than two syllables!
Mine is the longest!
Of course! You're my son.
Aunt Su-yeon will be waiting.
Let's go!
A person who brightens up the world.
Sunshine…
Gosh. He reeks of alcohol.
You didn't give him a drink.
You showered him in alcohol.
He's a weaker drinker than he looks.
We drank the same amount,
but he passed out.
He shouldn't drink as much as you.
It will kill him!
Hey, wake up!
Damn, he's heavy. Hey!
You guys have gotten pretty close.
Don't just stand there
and talk like an old man. Give me a hand!
He's awake. Goodness, he's alive.
Hey!
Goodness!
My mom…
She left me when I was this little.
But she doesn't recognize me.
She says she came here
when I was about this big.
Then again,
I didn't recognize her either.
But how was I supposed to recognize her?
How could I?
She said she would come home soon.
Is this her home?
Is this home?
You're still suffering from a hangover
when you had a whole pot
of dried pollack soup?
I'll sober up eventually.
How long have you been living here?
-About ten years.
-Are there any people who came before you?
Yes. You know Detective Park, right?
He and his wife have been here
for over 20 years.
Then did those two meet here
or come together?
They met here.
They came around the same time
and have been here for so long.
They relied on each other, got along well,
and were on the same wavelength,
so they decided to stay together.
Why didn't you find their bodies?
It's not that I didn't. I couldn't.
I went to their neighborhoods
and where they worked,
but found nothing.
They don't know who killed them or why.
Plus, it's been so long.
But why are you asking so many questions?
I was just curious.
Well, the house where Jun-su's mom
used to live now belongs to someone else.
The old landlady moved out.
She's famous. She's even on TV these days.
-Famous?
-The chairwoman of Choiseung Construction.
Do you know everyone's story
inside and out?
I don't know all the details.
I just know enough.
Let's work together next time.
I'll help you look for their bodies.
Did Thomas spike your alcohol?
-You said it was bothersome.
-Of course. It still is.
But there's something
that goes beyond that.
I have this sense of justice right here.
-Do you see it?
-What?
It's useless…
Anyway,
where is the chairwoman's house
that Jun-su's mom used to work at?
Hey, Jong-a.
Can you look up someone for me?
Chairwoman Han Yeo-hui
of Choiseung Construction.
Chairwoman Han!
I'd like to ask you a few questions.
Chairwoman Han!
-I told you not to call any reporters.
-I'm sorry. I did tell the PR team.
-This event is not open to the public.
-Is the rumor about your will true?
There's a charity event at 3:00 p.m.
It's a children's home that the company
has been sponsoring for ten years.
The event is closed to the public.
Chairwoman Han! Let me go.
Can we talk?
Okay, fine. Give me a moment.
You remember my mother, don't you?
She lived in your house 27 years ago.
Kim Hyeon-mi.
I don't know what you're talking about.
The children have been looking forward
to this day for a long time.
Don't you think it's really rude
to barge in here without an appointment
and rob them of their time?
Come, children.
So your mother worked
at Chairwoman Han's house 27 years ago?
Right, she worked there.
I vaguely remember.
But you said you grew up
in a children's home.
That was after my mom left me.
So what, you're looking for your mom?
Pretty much.
By the way,
why are you speaking casually to me?
What's wrong with you?
I'm a sociable person.
If it feels unfair, you can do the same.
I don't ask people to use honorifics
just because I'm older,
or criticize them for not being polite.
I'm open-minded enough not to do that.
-Hello?
-Mr. Jang, what are you doing today?
What's taking him so long?
-Mr. Jang!
-Why did you ask me to come?
Let me cash in the favor you owe me.
The ledger is up on the screen.
If a client comes, check the item,
then give them cash or do a wire transfer,
whichever they ask for.
Make sure to get the contract
and a copy of their ID. Easy, right?
No, I didn't get any of that.
Call me if you have questions.
I'll tell you then.
I'll pay you minimum wage.
I'll be back before evening.
So what exactly do you want me to do?
Ms. Lee!
There's no evidence to connect
Jang Myeong-gyu and Kim Nam-guk.
Stop investigating their cases for now
and help Detective Kang's case.
I can't do that, sir.
These guys are meticulous.
They made the suspects
disappear without a trace.
If I have more time,
I'll find the connection
and the people behind them.
It's still just a hit-and-run
that no one cares about.
You must give me something
so that I can talk to the higher-ups.
Yes.
Yes, sir.
Okay.
Hey, Detective Shin.
The Chief wants to see you.
Have a seat here.
So you're in charge of the mugging
and the hit-and-run cases.
That's right.
This is Mr. Lee Dong-min
from Choiseung Construction.
He has some questions about the cases.
Both investigations are still ongoing.
Why are you curious about them?
It's not me.
Chairwoman Han is curious about them.
She recently heard about an accident
after visiting a few children's homes
and felt sorry for the victims.
I need to head to headquarters,
so talk with Detective Shin.
Sir, ongoing cases are confidential.
I can't share--
I'm sure you have questions too,
don't you?
I'll leave it to you two.
-How do you know the Chief?
-We went to the same school.
Don't worry. There was no bribery
or illegal transaction involved.
Why does Chairwoman Han
want to know about these cases?
Chairwoman Han is looking for someone.
She doesn't have many leads,
due to lack of information.
Then she happened to hear
about an accident.
-So she wants to confirm something.
-Oh.
So the rumors must be true.
I heard she's planning to give
her shares to the grandchild.
Jang Myeong-gyu was mugged
and Kim Nam-guk died
in a hit-and-run accident.
There's no link between the two cases,
so they'll be closed soon.
If you want, I can let you take a look.
Please keep the content of her will
regarding her grandchild to yourself.
Although when the time comes,
everyone will find out.
CHOISEUNG CONSTRUCTION
LEE DONG-MIN
Let's close these cases now.
-I won again!
-I lost again…
Big brother!
Do you have to shoot it to spin it?
Instead of using your hands?
This is Jun-su's. He's the best player.
Jun-su always wins.
Jun-su, can I have a go?
-What? Is this broken?
-That's not how you do it.
Do it like this. This is how you play.
Gosh, you're really good, Jun-su!
You're an expert.
Jun-su, when I was little,
I used a stick to spin the top.
-What kind of stick?
-What kind?
A stick with a string attached at the end.
You use it to slap the top.
You keep slapping it and when
it's about to fall, you slap it again.
And later, when it's about to fall,
you slap it like this again.
It would be beautiful
if the walls of Café Hawaii sparkled.
I can't imagine that.
The walls aren't blank canvases.
How can we make that happen?
-There is a way.
-What's that?
I saw something useful
in Thomas's storage room.
I think we'll be able to
make your idea work.
To make the walls sparkle,
Mr. Jang and I will probably
end up with colorful bruises.
What bruises?
Is there another bad guy in the village?
Hey.
He's the cute guy.
You should join us this year.
The men do all the physical work
on Memory Day.
Memory Day?
What's that?
It's an event that
takes place once a year.
Like a holiday.
Wook, you want an iced Americano, right?
Yes, with an extra shot.
Is your name Wook?
What's your full name?
It's Choi Wook.
How old are you?
I'm 30.
He's handsome,
but he's not younger than he looks.
Where's Thomas?
He went to the storage room
to work on something.
Can you bring the coffee to the room?
Did you make this yourself?
It might sound like bragging,
but I made most
of the furniture at the café.
Goodness.
Since you're already bragging,
can you make something for me?
Sure.
But nothing comes for free in life.
You really are a businessman.
Do me a favor too, brother.
Sure. What is it?
Smartphones, tablets…
People used to pawn their gold teeth,
but I guess times have changed.
Hello.
This place looks different.
Or is the owner someone else?
Do you want to pawn something?
No, I'm not here for that.
Are you the owner?
Yes, I'm the owner.
-Let's go.
-Yes, sir.
Gosh, what a nice pawnshop.
You made a lot of money.
Ms. Lee, where are you?
I think you should come back right now.
You want to make this place like this?
Just like in the drawing?
Just the thought of it
makes me happy already.
This isn't like any other house parties
I had before.
See? We have to do everything
to make it happen.
No wonder you end up with bruises.
I'm hungry. Should we eat something?
Sounds nice. What should we eat?
-Instant noodles…
-Instant noodles, of course.
Okay, I'll cook it.
I'm going to add eggs.
What else do you want?
-Put some bean sprouts on the bottom.
-Some bean sprouts…
I had a lot to drink last night,
so I need some aspartic acid.
Then I'll go and boil the water.
I'll go with you.
I should go home and bring a tape measure.
Come back before
the instant noodles get soggy!
Instant noodles taste best
with bean sprouts.
Mr. Jang?
What? Did he leave the repeater on?
Damn, he's so careless.
How is he going to protect
the village this way?
Some strange men dropped by the pawnshop.
They had a Yanbian accent.
You said the guys who killed
your friend had the same accent.
Come to the pawnshop
as soon as you read this message.
SO GOOD PAWNSHOP
Jong-a.
Relax. We're all fine.
I had to go somewhere for a while,
so Mr. Jang was by himself
when they came by.
I'm checking the CCTV footage.
Okay. Detective Shin is on his way too.
There he is.
Wait a second.
I think I've seen him somewhere.
He was in front of
the cold storage warehouse.
-Right?
-What did he say to you?
He scanned me up and down
and asked if I was the owner,
so I said yes.
He gave off a bad vibe,
so I said I was the owner.
I was worried he might try
to harm Ms. Lee.
The fact that he knows
the owner has changed means
he knows who Kim Nam-guk is.
The car Nam-guk's killers were driving
stopped by the cold storage warehouse.
Send this footage to me.
-Where are you going? I'll come with you.
-No, stay here.
The police will get things done faster.
He's right.
It'll be dangerous if you get involved.
But why did they come here
when Nam-guk is gone?
-No way.
-Did they come for you?
It looks that way.
What do we do, Wook?
No worries.
A cop has just gone to arrest them.
And a fortune-teller told me
that I'll live for a long time.
Wait.
What's going on between the two of you?
Jong-a, you left the pawnshop.
When did you start working here part-time?
We had our reasons. I'll tell you later.
ILGONG COLD STORAGE
-I heard you asked for a transfer.
-That's right.
Just take a few days off
and look for Yeo-na.
The Violent Crimes Unit can do--
What happened to Jang Myeong-gyu
and Kim Nam-guk wasn't an accident.
-I'm sure Yeo-na is also--
-Who the hell are you?
-We're the police.
-I can't see because it's too dark.
What brings the police here?
-We have some questions to ask.
-Go ahead.
Gosh, I can't see you
because it's too dark.
Let's go somewhere with better lighting.
I'm sorry about this.
There are some noisy gangsters outside.
This is the only bright and quiet place.
You're just here as a witness,
so don't worry too much.
All right. It's fine.
By any chance,
do you know these people?
I've never seen them before.
What about these people?
I know them. Where are they now?
They used to work at our factory.
They just went off the grid
and disappeared.
-I can't get a hold of them.
-What did they do?
They did deliveries, collected money,
and sometimes did manual labor.
A bit of this and that.
Did they cause trouble?
Why did you go to
a pawnshop this afternoon?
-Going to a pawnshop is not illegal.
-Of course not.
I have to deal with all sorts of things
as I work with Yanbian people.
I went there to find
some guys who disappeared.
I was there for the same reason as you.
To catch these men.
Have you seen this woman?
I can name all 70 employees
at our factory,
but I've never seen her before.
Thanks for your cooperation.
-I'm going to get going.
-Okay.
What did he say? Is he the one who
ordered to have Nam-guk killed?
Why did he come to the pawnshop?
The guys who fled to China
are his employees.
They went off the grid,
so he went there to find them.
That's ridiculous.
Nam-guk's never even seen them before,
but he went there to look for them?
That makes no sense.
I'm sure he's lying,
but I let him go for now.
He needs to roam around feeling safe
so that we can find a lead.
The guy who killed Nam-guk…
I'm going to catch him.
-Don't do anything stupid.
-I'll set a trap.
So just come and arrest him.
Illegal evidence is invalid.
Don't cause trouble by getting involved.
-Just stay put.
-Aren't you going to find Choi Yeo-na?
-What do you mean?
-You asked me if I saw her.
Did you see Yeo-na?
-Where?
-When I got kidnapped.
They were forcing a woman into their car.
I yelled at them to stop
and took some pictures of them.
That's why they chased after me
and even abducted me.
And you're telling me this just now?
Are you sure you saw Yeo-na?
Answer me, you jerk!
Why didn't you tell me
when I asked you before?
If we get Manager Wang,
we can find Choi Yeo-na too.
There's no evidence! None!
I'll get it done.
I'm going to catch him no matter what.
And I'll find her too.
-Are you sure you saw Yeo-na here?
-Yes.
-What time was it?
-It was before I got hit by your car.
So around noon?
I was walking out of the market
when I heard something over there.
Please help!
Help me!
So I was over there taking photos
and the car was right here.
Yes, this is the place.
This place is far from Yeo-na's house
and she didn't even come here often.
Maybe she got kidnapped
and tried to run away
when the car stopped.
When the car stopped, I ran away.
And then they caught me again.
Next, I was here.
I'll get going first.
Wait a second.
I have something to show you.
Come this way.
Have a seat.
-What is this?
-I made it for you, Yeo-na.
You made it yourself?
So this is what you've been working on?
It's your personal chair.
What for?
-Why did you put this here?
-So that you can sit here and wait.
-Wait for what?
-I know why you wanted to work here.
To wait for the gate to open.
-You knew all long?
-I gave up hope a long time ago.
But I can't force you to give it up too.
Thank you.
Yu-ji-ja sa-gyeong-seong.
"When there's a will, there's a way."
I hope you find a way.
I'm going to make it happen.
SEOUL METROPOLITAN POLICE AGENCY
This missing person's name is Jang-mi.
She was working at an adult establishment
and suddenly disappeared a year ago.
What? She disappeared a year ago,
but they only reported it now?
-Well, many barmaids quit without notice.
-So why did they report it now?
The female body we found
a few days ago was identified as
Lee Ji-hye, who worked at the same place.
She was close to Jang-mi,
who's currently missing.
Who reported it?
-The manager of the establishment.
-Detective Park.
-Yes.
-You and Detective Baek take this case.
What? You know
I'm looking for Choi Yeo-na now.
I don't even have time to eat
as I'm busy looking up
sex offenders in her neighborhood.
I know. And you have my full support.
Keep helping Detective Shin with that.
Just think of this one as a long-term case
and work with Detective Park.
Hey. Why don't you pay me double
when you give me double the work?
Why are you complaining to me
about your salary?
-What's going on?
-You actually came.
Your boss called me.
You asked for a transfer?
Are you serious?
He asked me to change your mind,
but I have no intention of doing that.
That's right.
Why reject a talented detective
who came willingly?
That would be rude.
-Where should I put this?
-Over here.
Right here. You can use this desk.
I came to look for Yeo-na.
Of course you should find a missing person
at the Missing Persons Team.
Right. Thank you, sir.
Welcome to the team.
Let's go have a cup of coffee.
Why are you in a daze?
Jeez, what are you wearing?
I went up the mountain
to check on the bees.
Gosh, it's awfully hot.
Give me some water.
Goodness.
Here you go.
Did you do something?
Why are you so obedient all of a sudden?
Why are you wearing black
when it's scorching outside?
-Are you going somewhere?
-To see Manager Wang.
Do you have a death wish?
Why go see someone
who's dying to catch you?
Isn't it obvious?
I must catch Manager Wang
to avenge Nam-guk and find Yeo-na.
I'll come with you.
You can't catch him all by yourself.
-Wait. I'll get changed.
-No. Don't worry, okay?
I'm just doing a preliminary survey today.
Hey, wait.
My goodness. What now?
RESTRICTED NUMBER
Wang Myeong-cheol?
Should I call you Manager Wang?
I see you're desperately looking for me.
Call me whatever you want.
You'll soon be dead anyway.
I know you killed Nam-guk
and Jang Myeong-gyu.
You killed Choi Yeo-na too, right?
-There's no evidence I did those things.
-Choi Yeo-na told me herself.
Someone rang the doorbell,
so she opened the door,
thinking it was a delivery.
But your underlings were
standing outside instead.
Are you out of your mind?
Did a dead woman talk to you herself?
Yes.
I have that kind of power.
I'm going to find her body.
You can't cover up your murder
by simply taking away my phone.
This will only end if you die.
Or…
if you die.
What did you say, you bastard?
Where are you now?
Don't yell.
What if you have a heart attack
because your blood pressure spikes?
That would be a painless death.
You must pay for your crimes.
What can a loser like you do?
I'm sure you're looking forward to
seeing how I'll catch you.
While you wait, try to imagine
how scary and distressing
it must've been for Nam-guk.
I'll at least make your death
more painful than his.
Go easy on the food and head home.
"Year 1993, M to J." Is this it?
-It looks like it.
-Yes, this is it.
When I was just a rookie,
there was this senior
who rode high like you.
He was good at his job
and had a nasty temper.
Oh, here it is.
REDEVELOPMENT CORRUPTION CASES
He investigated corruption
in redevelopment.
CHOISEUNG CONSTRUCTION
CORRUPTION CASE
It's Choiseung Construction.
Chairwoman Han's daughter Kim Su-yeon.
She fell to her death at home?
She became disabled due to a car accident.
She fell when she was alone
and hurt her head badly.
The cause of death was excessive bleeding.
Where's Detective Park,
the one who investigated the case?
He vanished during that investigation.
What?
Like I said,
he just vanished without a trace.
Here.
I joined the Missing Persons
to find Detective Park.
It was my first case.
Is Detective Park's disappearance
connected to Choiseung Construction?
They said they'd never seen him.
The case was closed because
there was no evidence.
But it is still an ongoing case for me.
I don't know how Choiseung Construction
is related to your case,
but if the chairwoman's daughter
is linked to it, refer to that.
It might help you.
If this was in 1993…
it was 27 years ago…
So your mother worked
at Chairwoman Han's house 27 years ago?
Right, she worked there.
I vaguely remember.
What the hell is going on
with these cases?
ILGONG COLD STORAGE
Ilgong Cold Storage
is a food distribution company.
They distribute livestock products
and provide cold storage services.
Their sales keep rising
and they have no tax issues at all.
That's how it looks on the outside,
but they had issues with power trips
and changing labels.
The men who came here the other day
weren't Ilgong employees.
I think Manager Wang
personally hired them.
Can you hack the security system?
-What will you do after picking the lock?
-I'll start by taunting them.
Right. You're an expert at that.
Come on, that's not true.
-What do you get from taunting them?
-Time.
Manager Wang came
all the way here to catch me.
He completely trashed my place.
I can't live my life
because I have to avoid him.
I'll tie him down first.
-Then buy some time to freely move around.
-What if he gets back at you?
I won't give him the chance.
I'm going to constantly harass him
until I find concrete evidence
to give to the police.
I like the idea,
but what is the plan?
Maybe this is going too far, but…
ILGONG COLD STORAGE
This is the blind spot.
I tweaked the cameras to automatically
keep playing the recorded footage.
And I just unlocked the entrances.
Let's go.
Stick them on top of the original labels
and make sure they're visible.
Gosh, I can't believe
I'm switching the labels.
Article Six of the Act on Origin Labeling
of Agricultural and Fishery Products.
Don't falsely label the place of origin.
If you violate this, you must either
serve up to seven years in prison
or pay a fine of up to 100 million won.
Mr. Jang, it looks like
you're a pro at this.
-Did you work as a part-time packer too?
-Part-time?
There were no part-timers at my company.
Everyone was full-time.
Why did you quit such a good job?
They must've figured out that the cameras
are playing the same footage.
We should wrap this up and get out.
Okay.
What? I can't come in?
You've been sewing.
You're making an outfit for tomorrow.
Right.
-What happened to that thing I asked for?
-What about you? Did you do what I asked?
-Did it go well?
-Of course. It went well.
Here you go.
-Not bad.
-I wish I was bad at something.
You're terrible at drawing.
See you tomorrow.
Mr. Jang, this makes no sense.
There's been no trace of her for 27 years.
How is that possible?
A lot of things in this world
don't make sense. I'm not surprised.
Eat up before your food gets cold.
Can I order another dish after this?
Since you're buying today?
Order anything you want,
so that you'll feel indebted to me.
But Wook doesn't even want to know
where his mother is.
He even told me not to find her.
So I'm going to give up.
Ms. Kim Hyeon-mi.
Born on October 25th, 1957.
Where on earth are you?
Who?
Kim Hyeon-mi?
Is that the name of Wook's mother?
Born in 1957?
Yes.
I used to be a civil servant,
so I have a habit of always stating
someone's name and date of birth.
She left me when I was this little.
But she doesn't recognize me.
That's why he said that. I get it now.
Mr. Jang, are you all right?
Do you have an upset stomach?
You should have eaten slowly.
Drink some water.
My goodness.
Where should I put this?
I already got all the pieces.
Why are you here? You didn't even call.
You're in your uniform today.
You look hot.
Get changed. Let's go on a date.
Wait here. I'll be quick.
Is summer sweet? No way.
-Dragon's Breath.
-Isn't it fun?
All of the pieces here represent food.
Come here.
Sweet Summer is a watermelon.
Happy Birthday over there is seaweed.
This is my favorite piece.
Choi Yeo-na.
What?
I don't care where or how you grew up.
I don't care about your past.
I don't need anything else.
I only need you
to come to me.
That's what Bernard Buffet said.
Well…
I practiced a lot
so I could propose
to you like your favorite painter.
Are you proposing to me?
Well, I was going to take you
to a fancy restaurant and surprise you,
but you looked so beautiful that
I blurted out what I memorized.
I ruined it.
I didn't know the mighty Shin Jun-ho
could get nervous too.
This is a necklace that my mom
gave me when I was young.
I've been saving it until the proposal.
It's beautiful.
I will protect you
for the rest of your life.
Will you marry me?
Yes.
Come here. Gosh, okay!
Come on.
This is not right! What's all this?
Done!
Lighten up!
-I'm coming!
-This is too tight.
What's taking you so long?
I'm coming!
Why are we dressing up anyway?
It's a party for the dead.
Just for the mood.
It doesn't matter if you're dead or alive.
-How do I look?
-Well, not as good as me.
But not bad.
Let's go. They must be waiting for us.
Let's go see Jun-su.
We'll eat delicious food and have fun too.
Okay.
-How ironic.
-What?
They look so happy
despite their sad situation.
Of course they're happy.
They shouldn't have to feel sad here.
I didn't say it was a bad thing.
I'm glad to see them so happy.
You should let me finish.
Why are you mad at me?
Big brother!
What are you today? I'm a traffic light.
Me?
-I'm a cool guy.
-I see.
I'm a cooler guy, right?
Yes.
Jun-su.
Ta-da!
-This is a wooden top.
-Is that a real top?
Of course! Take a closer look.
Gosh. I used to be very good
at this when I was little.
-Would you like to try it?
-Yes!
When I spin it, you slap it. Okay?
-You can have it.
-For real?
You could say I made this for you myself.
Jun-su, I'll take a nice photo of you.
Go and sit on the slide.
-I want to be in it too.
-Sure.
-Sit down, Beom-su.
-Okay.
How cute. Smile.
Can you move a bit to the side?
Yes, right there.
One, two, three!
Detective Park, let's take a picture.
Look over here.
Come on, look!
That's it, yes!
What use is all this?
No one on the outside knows
we're doing all this.
No.
But that's all the more reason to do this.
There's a saying.
"The dead move further and further away,
but as long as we remember each other,
we will remain
either in their memories or ours."
That's what they all wish right now.
Oh, right. Can I borrow the photos?
What are you going to do with them?
I'll tell you later.
It's so cool! It's amazing!
This is what he was making with
a sewing machine every night?
Thomas is really something.
-His 100 years were worth it.
-Jun-su, would you like to go for a ride?
The big balloon will take you
up to the sky.
-I'm scared.
-I'd like to go for a ride!
Yeo-na, you should join too!
What? Are you favoring her
because she's your employee?
-Come with me.
-It's okay. I'm afraid of heights.
Everybody go on and have fun!
Where did Wook go?
Detective Shin!
You came just in time.
Why do you keep asking me
to come to see you?
The roads here are terrible.
Sorry for calling you here
when I know you're busy.
Detective Shin. You and Yeo-na are
in a special relationship, right?
-We're going to get married.
-Right. You told me the wedding is soon.
You must miss her a lot.
Of course I miss her.
Did you call me here just to say that?
I'm swamped with work.
Of course not!
You went to meet the chairwoman
of Choiseung Construction the other day.
Did you find out anything?
Your mom worked at Chairwoman Han's house
27 years ago, right? In 1993.
Yes.
Chairwoman Han had a daughter
named Kim Su-yeon who died 27 years ago.
She died around the time your mother left.
Kim Su-yeon?
Aunt Su-yeon will be waiting.
Go see what Aunt Su-yeon is doing.
Aunt Su-yeon…
Do you know her?
-Do you remember anything?
-No. It's just her name sounds familiar.
Detective Shin, stay right here.
I need to go get something
from Mr. Jang's house.
Stay right here.
Here. Play with this.
Just give me ten minutes. No, five.
Don't go anywhere, okay?
What do you need to get?
I never thought I'd get to fly.
Thanks, Thomas.
I never even got to ride a plane.
-I've never even seen a plane.
-What? That's nonsense.
-Have you been on a plane before?
-Of course I have.
When I went on a backpacking trip
to Europe and Jeju Island.
Hey, it's big bro's friend.
-What?
-Over there.
Jun-ho.
Jun-ho!
Shin Jun-ho!
He's Jun-ho. My fiancé!
-Jun-ho!
-Jun-ho!
Over here! I'm right here!
Jun-ho!
Jun-ho, I'm over here!
Jun-ho!
Jun-ho…
He came…
You came to see me, right?
So what do you need from me?
-Please bring Yeo-na's boyfriend here.
-Detective Shin? To here?
Just to a place
where Yeo-na can see him from afar.
-Why? What for?
-It's a special day.
A day to remember someone
and to be remembered.
I think it'd be nice to make
her dreams come true.
Are you ready?
Will you please just wait?
I'm working on it.
Why won't it work? Is it broken?
-What's going on?
-Turn it on already!
All right, it's ready now!
-One.
-Two, three!
It looks amazing!
It's so beautiful!
Red!
Green!
My whole body aches.
Detective Park made us do all the work
while he's out there having fun.
Traitor.
-This place is starting to change.
-You're right.
How was the hot air balloon? Was it nice?
Yes, it felt like I was flying.
All thanks to Thomas.
It was like a miracle.
I wish I could see him just once.
If that happens,
I'd have nothing more to ask for.
My son…
Hey, Wook.
Can you give me a hand?
Of course. What is it?
-Does this look okay?
-Yes, it's perfect.
Are you going to play a movie?
No, not a movie. But I want to play that.
So you're asking me
to turn that on, right?
Yes. I'll go and get everyone.
Okay.
Sure.
Everyone, let's all go inside now.
There's an event waiting for you.
An event?
Let's go.
Jun-su, come with us.
Hurry. Come here.
Let's go.
When it's red, you stop and wait.
Yes. I must cross when it's green
while checking if a car is coming or not.
That's it. Who do you take after?
You're such a smart boy, Beom-su.
Three, five, E.
Zero, eight, two, nine.
Three, five, E. Zero, eight, two, nine.
Beom-su.
Come inside.
Yes, Yeo-na.
So this is why she wanted the photos…
Thank you.
My mom took everything from me.
My friends conned me.
And then there was that bastard.
Because of them,
I thought all people were trash,
but things are different here.
I'm really happy here.
Look, comrades.
The world has changed so much.
It is a peaceful time.
I have so much to tell you,
but there's no way to reach you.
Jun-ho.
I will never give up.
So don't lose hope and wait for me.
She still hasn't come.
How cruel of you.
You made me see what I shouldn't have,
so at least send me my daughter.
Or at least send someone
who's seen Hyeon-ji.
I haven't been able to move
a step forward since that day.
I'm still right here.
This is unfair.
So unfair.
Jun-su, let's go outside and look around.
-Sure.
-Okay.
-Don't go too far.
-Okay.
Let's go.
Just a moment.
Just a few more minutes.
How long are you going to keep staring?
There's so much to do.
There's still more left to do?
Gosh…
Do this twice and we'll die of exhaustion.
I haven't suited up in a while,
and you just made me work.
Okay, fine. Let's go.
Let's go. So what do we have to do next?
Catch Manager Wang.
-We can start that tomorrow…
-And the bastard who killed your mom.
We must find them.
What are you talking about?
I mean your mom.
Speaking of which,
I'll go and ask her myself.
Jun-su's mom.
But how did he know I was here?
I'm planning to look into Detective Park,
who investigated Choiseung Construction,
and a 27-year-old case.
How do you know Kim Mi-ok?
-There's a reason why you see dead people.
-Please keep this a secret.
Do you know how I feel these days?
It's like I'm looking for a ghost
that doesn't exist.
-What are you doing?
-Hey.
-You're going to find Thomas?
-Why do you look so surprised?
How could you send Wook here too?
What did my son do wrong?
I miss you even more today.

RELIGIONS, AND EVENTS
IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTITIOUS
This goes down smoothly,
but it feels fiery inside. I like it.
Let me tell you about this liquor.
When Chun-hyang and Mong-ryong parted,
Chun-hyang had her maid Hyang-dan
bring a bottle of this.
Mong-ryong drank it
and fell for Chun-hyang,
and ended up staying with her.
So Chun-hyang used this liquor
to seduce him?
When I was young,
my mother told me this story
as she made me sterilize the bottle
with burning straw.
Whenever I drink this liquor,
I'm reminded of my mother.
Now that I've had a glass
I'm reminded of my mom.
What was your mother like?
My mom?
My mom was…
Chan-ho is Sung Chan-ho
and Jin-hee is Jung Jin-hee.
Why am I Kim Wook?
-What do you mean by that?
-Their names are three syllables.
But mine is only two.
Why do you think
your name is two syllables?
You're not just Wook.
You are Sunshine Wook.
A person who brightens up the world.
Sunshine Wook.
It's more than two syllables!
Mine is the longest!
Of course! You're my son.
Aunt Su-yeon will be waiting.
Let's go!
A person who brightens up the world.
Sunshine…
Gosh. He reeks of alcohol.
You didn't give him a drink.
You showered him in alcohol.
He's a weaker drinker than he looks.
We drank the same amount,
but he passed out.
He shouldn't drink as much as you.
It will kill him!
Hey, wake up!
Damn, he's heavy. Hey!
You guys have gotten pretty close.
Don't just stand there
and talk like an old man. Give me a hand!
He's awake. Goodness, he's alive.
Hey!
Goodness!
My mom…
She left me when I was this little.
But she doesn't recognize me.
She says she came here
when I was about this big.
Then again,
I didn't recognize her either.
But how was I supposed to recognize her?
How could I?
She said she would come home soon.
Is this her home?
Is this home?
You're still suffering from a hangover
when you had a whole pot
of dried pollack soup?
I'll sober up eventually.
How long have you been living here?
-About ten years.
-Are there any people who came before you?
Yes. You know Detective Park, right?
He and his wife have been here
for over 20 years.
Then did those two meet here
or come together?
They met here.
They came around the same time
and have been here for so long.
They relied on each other, got along well,
and were on the same wavelength,
so they decided to stay together.
Why didn't you find their bodies?
It's not that I didn't. I couldn't.
I went to their neighborhoods
and where they worked,
but found nothing.
They don't know who killed them or why.
Plus, it's been so long.
But why are you asking so many questions?
I was just curious.
Well, the house where Jun-su's mom
used to live now belongs to someone else.
The old landlady moved out.
She's famous. She's even on TV these days.
-Famous?
-The chairwoman of Choiseung Construction.
Do you know everyone's story
inside and out?
I don't know all the details.
I just know enough.
Let's work together next time.
I'll help you look for their bodies.
Did Thomas spike your alcohol?
-You said it was bothersome.
-Of course. It still is.
But there's something
that goes beyond that.
I have this sense of justice right here.
-Do you see it?
-What?
It's useless…
Anyway,
where is the chairwoman's house
that Jun-su's mom used to work at?
Hey, Jong-a.
Can you look up someone for me?
Chairwoman Han Yeo-hui
of Choiseung Construction.
Chairwoman Han!
I'd like to ask you a few questions.
Chairwoman Han!
-I told you not to call any reporters.
-I'm sorry. I did tell the PR team.
-This event is not open to the public.
-Is the rumor about your will true?
There's a charity event at 3:00 p.m.
It's a children's home that the company
has been sponsoring for ten years.
The event is closed to the public.
Chairwoman Han! Let me go.
Can we talk?
Okay, fine. Give me a moment.
You remember my mother, don't you?
She lived in your house 27 years ago.
Kim Hyeon-mi.
I don't know what you're talking about.
The children have been looking forward
to this day for a long time.
Don't you think it's really rude
to barge in here without an appointment
and rob them of their time?
Come, children.
So your mother worked
at Chairwoman Han's house 27 years ago?
Right, she worked there.
I vaguely remember.
But you said you grew up
in a children's home.
That was after my mom left me.
So what, you're looking for your mom?
Pretty much.
By the way,
why are you speaking casually to me?
What's wrong with you?
I'm a sociable person.
If it feels unfair, you can do the same.
I don't ask people to use honorifics
just because I'm older,
or criticize them for not being polite.
I'm open-minded enough not to do that.
-Hello?
-Mr. Jang, what are you doing today?
What's taking him so long?
-Mr. Jang!
-Why did you ask me to come?
Let me cash in the favor you owe me.
The ledger is up on the screen.
If a client comes, check the item,
then give them cash or do a wire transfer,
whichever they ask for.
Make sure to get the contract
and a copy of their ID. Easy, right?
No, I didn't get any of that.
Call me if you have questions.
I'll tell you then.
I'll pay you minimum wage.
I'll be back before evening.
So what exactly do you want me to do?
Ms. Lee!
There's no evidence to connect
Jang Myeong-gyu and Kim Nam-guk.
Stop investigating their cases for now
and help Detective Kang's case.
I can't do that, sir.
These guys are meticulous.
They made the suspects
disappear without a trace.
If I have more time,
I'll find the connection
and the people behind them.
It's still just a hit-and-run
that no one cares about.
You must give me something
so that I can talk to the higher-ups.
Yes.
Yes, sir.
Okay.
Hey, Detective Shin.
The Chief wants to see you.
Have a seat here.
So you're in charge of the mugging
and the hit-and-run cases.
That's right.
This is Mr. Lee Dong-min
from Choiseung Construction.
He has some questions about the cases.
Both investigations are still ongoing.
Why are you curious about them?
It's not me.
Chairwoman Han is curious about them.
She recently heard about an accident
after visiting a few children's homes
and felt sorry for the victims.
I need to head to headquarters,
so talk with Detective Shin.
Sir, ongoing cases are confidential.
I can't share--
I'm sure you have questions too,
don't you?
I'll leave it to you two.
-How do you know the Chief?
-We went to the same school.
Don't worry. There was no bribery
or illegal transaction involved.
Why does Chairwoman Han
want to know about these cases?
Chairwoman Han is looking for someone.
She doesn't have many leads,
due to lack of information.
Then she happened to hear
about an accident.
-So she wants to confirm something.
-Oh.
So the rumors must be true.
I heard she's planning to give
her shares to the grandchild.
Jang Myeong-gyu was mugged
and Kim Nam-guk died
in a hit-and-run accident.
There's no link between the two cases,
so they'll be closed soon.
If you want, I can let you take a look.
Please keep the content of her will
regarding her grandchild to yourself.
Although when the time comes,
everyone will find out.
CHOISEUNG CONSTRUCTION
LEE DONG-MIN
Let's close these cases now.
-I won again!
-I lost again…
Big brother!
Do you have to shoot it to spin it?
Instead of using your hands?
This is Jun-su's. He's the best player.
Jun-su always wins.
Jun-su, can I have a go?
-What? Is this broken?
-That's not how you do it.
Do it like this. This is how you play.
Gosh, you're really good, Jun-su!
You're an expert.
Jun-su, when I was little,
I used a stick to spin the top.
-What kind of stick?
-What kind?
A stick with a string attached at the end.
You use it to slap the top.
You keep slapping it and when
it's about to fall, you slap it again.
And later, when it's about to fall,
you slap it like this again.
It would be beautiful
if the walls of Café Hawaii sparkled.
I can't imagine that.
The walls aren't blank canvases.
How can we make that happen?
-There is a way.
-What's that?
I saw something useful
in Thomas's storage room.
I think we'll be able to
make your idea work.
To make the walls sparkle,
Mr. Jang and I will probably
end up with colorful bruises.
What bruises?
Is there another bad guy in the village?
Hey.
He's the cute guy.
You should join us this year.
The men do all the physical work
on Memory Day.
Memory Day?
What's that?
It's an event that
takes place once a year.
Like a holiday.
Wook, you want an iced Americano, right?
Yes, with an extra shot.
Is your name Wook?
What's your full name?
It's Choi Wook.
How old are you?
I'm 30.
He's handsome,
but he's not younger than he looks.
Where's Thomas?
He went to the storage room
to work on something.
Can you bring the coffee to the room?
Did you make this yourself?
It might sound like bragging,
but I made most
of the furniture at the café.
Goodness.
Since you're already bragging,
can you make something for me?
Sure.
But nothing comes for free in life.
You really are a businessman.
Do me a favor too, brother.
Sure. What is it?
Smartphones, tablets…
People used to pawn their gold teeth,
but I guess times have changed.
Hello.
This place looks different.
Or is the owner someone else?
Do you want to pawn something?
No, I'm not here for that.
Are you the owner?
Yes, I'm the owner.
-Let's go.
-Yes, sir.
Gosh, what a nice pawnshop.
You made a lot of money.
Ms. Lee, where are you?
I think you should come back right now.
You want to make this place like this?
Just like in the drawing?
Just the thought of it
makes me happy already.
This isn't like any other house parties
I had before.
See? We have to do everything
to make it happen.
No wonder you end up with bruises.
I'm hungry. Should we eat something?
Sounds nice. What should we eat?
-Instant noodles…
-Instant noodles, of course.
Okay, I'll cook it.
I'm going to add eggs.
What else do you want?
-Put some bean sprouts on the bottom.
-Some bean sprouts…
I had a lot to drink last night,
so I need some aspartic acid.
Then I'll go and boil the water.
I'll go with you.
I should go home and bring a tape measure.
Come back before
the instant noodles get soggy!
Instant noodles taste best
with bean sprouts.
Mr. Jang?
What? Did he leave the repeater on?
Damn, he's so careless.
How is he going to protect
the village this way?
Some strange men dropped by the pawnshop.
They had a Yanbian accent.
You said the guys who killed
your friend had the same accent.
Come to the pawnshop
as soon as you read this message.
SO GOOD PAWNSHOP
Jong-a.
Relax. We're all fine.
I had to go somewhere for a while,
so Mr. Jang was by himself
when they came by.
I'm checking the CCTV footage.
Okay. Detective Shin is on his way too.
There he is.
Wait a second.
I think I've seen him somewhere.
He was in front of
the cold storage warehouse.
-Right?
-What did he say to you?
He scanned me up and down
and asked if I was the owner,
so I said yes.
He gave off a bad vibe,
so I said I was the owner.
I was worried he might try
to harm Ms. Lee.
The fact that he knows
the owner has changed means
he knows who Kim Nam-guk is.
The car Nam-guk's killers were driving
stopped by the cold storage warehouse.
Send this footage to me.
-Where are you going? I'll come with you.
-No, stay here.
The police will get things done faster.
He's right.
It'll be dangerous if you get involved.
But why did they come here
when Nam-guk is gone?
-No way.
-Did they come for you?
It looks that way.
What do we do, Wook?
No worries.
A cop has just gone to arrest them.
And a fortune-teller told me
that I'll live for a long time.
Wait.
What's going on between the two of you?
Jong-a, you left the pawnshop.
When did you start working here part-time?
We had our reasons. I'll tell you later.
ILGONG COLD STORAGE
-I heard you asked for a transfer.
-That's right.
Just take a few days off
and look for Yeo-na.
The Violent Crimes Unit can do--
What happened to Jang Myeong-gyu
and Kim Nam-guk wasn't an accident.
-I'm sure Yeo-na is also--
-Who the hell are you?
-We're the police.
-I can't see because it's too dark.
What brings the police here?
-We have some questions to ask.
-Go ahead.
Gosh, I can't see you
because it's too dark.
Let's go somewhere with better lighting.
I'm sorry about this.
There are some noisy gangsters outside.
This is the only bright and quiet place.
You're just here as a witness,
so don't worry too much.
All right. It's fine.
By any chance,
do you know these people?
I've never seen them before.
What about these people?
I know them. Where are they now?
They used to work at our factory.
They just went off the grid
and disappeared.
-I can't get a hold of them.
-What did they do?
They did deliveries, collected money,
and sometimes did manual labor.
A bit of this and that.
Did they cause trouble?
Why did you go to
a pawnshop this afternoon?
-Going to a pawnshop is not illegal.
-Of course not.
I have to deal with all sorts of things
as I work with Yanbian people.
I went there to find
some guys who disappeared.
I was there for the same reason as you.
To catch these men.
Have you seen this woman?
I can name all 70 employees
at our factory,
but I've never seen her before.
Thanks for your cooperation.
-I'm going to get going.
-Okay.
What did he say? Is he the one who
ordered to have Nam-guk killed?
Why did he come to the pawnshop?
The guys who fled to China
are his employees.
They went off the grid,
so he went there to find them.
That's ridiculous.
Nam-guk's never even seen them before,
but he went there to look for them?
That makes no sense.
I'm sure he's lying,
but I let him go for now.
He needs to roam around feeling safe
so that we can find a lead.
The guy who killed Nam-guk…
I'm going to catch him.
-Don't do anything stupid.
-I'll set a trap.
So just come and arrest him.
Illegal evidence is invalid.
Don't cause trouble by getting involved.
-Just stay put.
-Aren't you going to find Choi Yeo-na?
-What do you mean?
-You asked me if I saw her.
Did you see Yeo-na?
-Where?
-When I got kidnapped.
They were forcing a woman into their car.
I yelled at them to stop
and took some pictures of them.
That's why they chased after me
and even abducted me.
And you're telling me this just now?
Are you sure you saw Yeo-na?
Answer me, you jerk!
Why didn't you tell me
when I asked you before?
If we get Manager Wang,
we can find Choi Yeo-na too.
There's no evidence! None!
I'll get it done.
I'm going to catch him no matter what.
And I'll find her too.
-Are you sure you saw Yeo-na here?
-Yes.
-What time was it?
-It was before I got hit by your car.
So around noon?
I was walking out of the market
when I heard something over there.
Please help!
Help me!
So I was over there taking photos
and the car was right here.
Yes, this is the place.
This place is far from Yeo-na's house
and she didn't even come here often.
Maybe she got kidnapped
and tried to run away
when the car stopped.
When the car stopped, I ran away.
And then they caught me again.
Next, I was here.
I'll get going first.
Wait a second.
I have something to show you.
Come this way.
Have a seat.
-What is this?
-I made it for you, Yeo-na.
You made it yourself?
So this is what you've been working on?
It's your personal chair.
What for?
-Why did you put this here?
-So that you can sit here and wait.
-Wait for what?
-I know why you wanted to work here.
To wait for the gate to open.
-You knew all long?
-I gave up hope a long time ago.
But I can't force you to give it up too.
Thank you.
Yu-ji-ja sa-gyeong-seong.
"When there's a will, there's a way."
I hope you find a way.
I'm going to make it happen.
SEOUL METROPOLITAN POLICE AGENCY
This missing person's name is Jang-mi.
She was working at an adult establishment
and suddenly disappeared a year ago.
What? She disappeared a year ago,
but they only reported it now?
-Well, many barmaids quit without notice.
-So why did they report it now?
The female body we found
a few days ago was identified as
Lee Ji-hye, who worked at the same place.
She was close to Jang-mi,
who's currently missing.
Who reported it?
-The manager of the establishment.
-Detective Park.
-Yes.
-You and Detective Baek take this case.
What? You know
I'm looking for Choi Yeo-na now.
I don't even have time to eat
as I'm busy looking up
sex offenders in her neighborhood.
I know. And you have my full support.
Keep helping Detective Shin with that.
Just think of this one as a long-term case
and work with Detective Park.
Hey. Why don't you pay me double
when you give me double the work?
Why are you complaining to me
about your salary?
-What's going on?
-You actually came.
Your boss called me.
You asked for a transfer?
Are you serious?
He asked me to change your mind,
but I have no intention of doing that.
That's right.
Why reject a talented detective
who came willingly?
That would be rude.
-Where should I put this?
-Over here.
Right here. You can use this desk.
I came to look for Yeo-na.
Of course you should find a missing person
at the Missing Persons Team.
Right. Thank you, sir.
Welcome to the team.
Let's go have a cup of coffee.
Why are you in a daze?
Jeez, what are you wearing?
I went up the mountain
to check on the bees.
Gosh, it's awfully hot.
Give me some water.
Goodness.
Here you go.
Did you do something?
Why are you so obedient all of a sudden?
Why are you wearing black
when it's scorching outside?
-Are you going somewhere?
-To see Manager Wang.
Do you have a death wish?
Why go see someone
who's dying to catch you?
Isn't it obvious?
I must catch Manager Wang
to avenge Nam-guk and find Yeo-na.
I'll come with you.
You can't catch him all by yourself.
-Wait. I'll get changed.
-No. Don't worry, okay?
I'm just doing a preliminary survey today.
Hey, wait.
My goodness. What now?
RESTRICTED NUMBER
Wang Myeong-cheol?
Should I call you Manager Wang?
I see you're desperately looking for me.
Call me whatever you want.
You'll soon be dead anyway.
I know you killed Nam-guk
and Jang Myeong-gyu.
You killed Choi Yeo-na too, right?
-There's no evidence I did those things.
-Choi Yeo-na told me herself.
Someone rang the doorbell,
so she opened the door,
thinking it was a delivery.
But your underlings were
standing outside instead.
Are you out of your mind?
Did a dead woman talk to you herself?
Yes.
I have that kind of power.
I'm going to find her body.
You can't cover up your murder
by simply taking away my phone.
This will only end if you die.
Or…
if you die.
What did you say, you bastard?
Where are you now?
Don't yell.
What if you have a heart attack
because your blood pressure spikes?
That would be a painless death.
You must pay for your crimes.
What can a loser like you do?
I'm sure you're looking forward to
seeing how I'll catch you.
While you wait, try to imagine
how scary and distressing
it must've been for Nam-guk.
I'll at least make your death
more painful than his.
Go easy on the food and head home.
"Year 1993, M to J." Is this it?
-It looks like it.
-Yes, this is it.
When I was just a rookie,
there was this senior
who rode high like you.
He was good at his job
and had a nasty temper.
Oh, here it is.
REDEVELOPMENT CORRUPTION CASES
He investigated corruption
in redevelopment.
CHOISEUNG CONSTRUCTION
CORRUPTION CASE
It's Choiseung Construction.
Chairwoman Han's daughter Kim Su-yeon.
She fell to her death at home?
She became disabled due to a car accident.
She fell when she was alone
and hurt her head badly.
The cause of death was excessive bleeding.
Where's Detective Park,
the one who investigated the case?
He vanished during that investigation.
What?
Like I said,
he just vanished without a trace.
Here.
I joined the Missing Persons
to find Detective Park.
It was my first case.
Is Detective Park's disappearance
connected to Choiseung Construction?
They said they'd never seen him.
The case was closed because
there was no evidence.
But it is still an ongoing case for me.
I don't know how Choiseung Construction
is related to your case,
but if the chairwoman's daughter
is linked to it, refer to that.
It might help you.
If this was in 1993…
it was 27 years ago…
So your mother worked
at Chairwoman Han's house 27 years ago?
Right, she worked there.
I vaguely remember.
What the hell is going on
with these cases?
ILGONG COLD STORAGE
Ilgong Cold Storage
is a food distribution company.
They distribute livestock products
and provide cold storage services.
Their sales keep rising
and they have no tax issues at all.
That's how it looks on the outside,
but they had issues with power trips
and changing labels.
The men who came here the other day
weren't Ilgong employees.
I think Manager Wang
personally hired them.
Can you hack the security system?
-What will you do after picking the lock?
-I'll start by taunting them.
Right. You're an expert at that.
Come on, that's not true.
-What do you get from taunting them?
-Time.
Manager Wang came
all the way here to catch me.
He completely trashed my place.
I can't live my life
because I have to avoid him.
I'll tie him down first.
-Then buy some time to freely move around.
-What if he gets back at you?
I won't give him the chance.
I'm going to constantly harass him
until I find concrete evidence
to give to the police.
I like the idea,
but what is the plan?
Maybe this is going too far, but…
ILGONG COLD STORAGE
This is the blind spot.
I tweaked the cameras to automatically
keep playing the recorded footage.
And I just unlocked the entrances.
Let's go.
Stick them on top of the original labels
and make sure they're visible.
Gosh, I can't believe
I'm switching the labels.
Article Six of the Act on Origin Labeling
of Agricultural and Fishery Products.
Don't falsely label the place of origin.
If you violate this, you must either
serve up to seven years in prison
or pay a fine of up to 100 million won.
Mr. Jang, it looks like
you're a pro at this.
-Did you work as a part-time packer too?
-Part-time?
There were no part-timers at my company.
Everyone was full-time.
Why did you quit such a good job?
They must've figured out that the cameras
are playing the same footage.
We should wrap this up and get out.
Okay.
What? I can't come in?
You've been sewing.
You're making an outfit for tomorrow.
Right.
-What happened to that thing I asked for?
-What about you? Did you do what I asked?
-Did it go well?
-Of course. It went well.
Here you go.
-Not bad.
-I wish I was bad at something.
You're terrible at drawing.
See you tomorrow.
Mr. Jang, this makes no sense.
There's been no trace of her for 27 years.
How is that possible?
A lot of things in this world
don't make sense. I'm not surprised.
Eat up before your food gets cold.
Can I order another dish after this?
Since you're buying today?
Order anything you want,
so that you'll feel indebted to me.
But Wook doesn't even want to know
where his mother is.
He even told me not to find her.
So I'm going to give up.
Ms. Kim Hyeon-mi.
Born on October 25th, 1957.
Where on earth are you?
Who?
Kim Hyeon-mi?
Is that the name of Wook's mother?
Born in 1957?
Yes.
I used to be a civil servant,
so I have a habit of always stating
someone's name and date of birth.
She left me when I was this little.
But she doesn't recognize me.
That's why he said that. I get it now.
Mr. Jang, are you all right?
Do you have an upset stomach?
You should have eaten slowly.
Drink some water.
My goodness.
Where should I put this?
I already got all the pieces.
Why are you here? You didn't even call.
You're in your uniform today.
You look hot.
Get changed. Let's go on a date.
Wait here. I'll be quick.
Is summer sweet? No way.
-Dragon's Breath.
-Isn't it fun?
All of the pieces here represent food.
Come here.
Sweet Summer is a watermelon.
Happy Birthday over there is seaweed.
This is my favorite piece.
Choi Yeo-na.
What?
I don't care where or how you grew up.
I don't care about your past.
I don't need anything else.
I only need you
to come to me.
That's what Bernard Buffet said.
Well…
I practiced a lot
so I could propose
to you like your favorite painter.
Are you proposing to me?
Well, I was going to take you
to a fancy restaurant and surprise you,
but you looked so beautiful that
I blurted out what I memorized.
I ruined it.
I didn't know the mighty Shin Jun-ho
could get nervous too.
This is a necklace that my mom
gave me when I was young.
I've been saving it until the proposal.
It's beautiful.
I will protect you
for the rest of your life.
Will you marry me?
Yes.
Come here. Gosh, okay!
Come on.
This is not right! What's all this?
Done!
Lighten up!
-I'm coming!
-This is too tight.
What's taking you so long?
I'm coming!
Why are we dressing up anyway?
It's a party for the dead.
Just for the mood.
It doesn't matter if you're dead or alive.
-How do I look?
-Well, not as good as me.
But not bad.
Let's go. They must be waiting for us.
Let's go see Jun-su.
We'll eat delicious food and have fun too.
Okay.
-How ironic.
-What?
They look so happy
despite their sad situation.
Of course they're happy.
They shouldn't have to feel sad here.
I didn't say it was a bad thing.
I'm glad to see them so happy.
You should let me finish.
Why are you mad at me?
Big brother!
What are you today? I'm a traffic light.
Me?
-I'm a cool guy.
-I see.
I'm a cooler guy, right?
Yes.
Jun-su.
Ta-da!
-This is a wooden top.
-Is that a real top?
Of course! Take a closer look.
Gosh. I used to be very good
at this when I was little.
-Would you like to try it?
-Yes!
When I spin it, you slap it. Okay?
-You can have it.
-For real?
You could say I made this for you myself.
Jun-su, I'll take a nice photo of you.
Go and sit on the slide.
-I want to be in it too.
-Sure.
-Sit down, Beom-su.
-Okay.
How cute. Smile.
Can you move a bit to the side?
Yes, right there.
One, two, three!
Detective Park, let's take a picture.
Look over here.
Come on, look!
That's it, yes!
What use is all this?
No one on the outside knows
we're doing all this.
No.
But that's all the more reason to do this.
There's a saying.
"The dead move further and further away,
but as long as we remember each other,
we will remain
either in their memories or ours."
That's what they all wish right now.
Oh, right. Can I borrow the photos?
What are you going to do with them?
I'll tell you later.
It's so cool! It's amazing!
This is what he was making with
a sewing machine every night?
Thomas is really something.
-His 100 years were worth it.
-Jun-su, would you like to go for a ride?
The big balloon will take you
up to the sky.
-I'm scared.
-I'd like to go for a ride!
Yeo-na, you should join too!
What? Are you favoring her
because she's your employee?
-Come with me.
-It's okay. I'm afraid of heights.
Everybody go on and have fun!
Where did Wook go?
Detective Shin!
You came just in time.
Why do you keep asking me
to come to see you?
The roads here are terrible.
Sorry for calling you here
when I know you're busy.
Detective Shin. You and Yeo-na are
in a special relationship, right?
-We're going to get married.
-Right. You told me the wedding is soon.
You must miss her a lot.
Of course I miss her.
Did you call me here just to say that?
I'm swamped with work.
Of course not!
You went to meet the chairwoman
of Choiseung Construction the other day.
Did you find out anything?
Your mom worked at Chairwoman Han's house
27 years ago, right? In 1993.
Yes.
Chairwoman Han had a daughter
named Kim Su-yeon who died 27 years ago.
She died around the time your mother left.
Kim Su-yeon?
Aunt Su-yeon will be waiting.
Go see what Aunt Su-yeon is doing.
Aunt Su-yeon…
Do you know her?
-Do you remember anything?
-No. It's just her name sounds familiar.
Detective Shin, stay right here.
I need to go get something
from Mr. Jang's house.
Stay right here.
Here. Play with this.
Just give me ten minutes. No, five.
Don't go anywhere, okay?
What do you need to get?
I never thought I'd get to fly.
Thanks, Thomas.
I never even got to ride a plane.
-I've never even seen a plane.
-What? That's nonsense.
-Have you been on a plane before?
-Of course I have.
When I went on a backpacking trip
to Europe and Jeju Island.
Hey, it's big bro's friend.
-What?
-Over there.
Jun-ho.
Jun-ho!
Shin Jun-ho!
He's Jun-ho. My fiancé!
-Jun-ho!
-Jun-ho!
Over here! I'm right here!
Jun-ho!
Jun-ho, I'm over here!
Jun-ho!
Jun-ho…
He came…
You came to see me, right?
So what do you need from me?
-Please bring Yeo-na's boyfriend here.
-Detective Shin? To here?
Just to a place
where Yeo-na can see him from afar.
-Why? What for?
-It's a special day.
A day to remember someone
and to be remembered.
I think it'd be nice to make
her dreams come true.
Are you ready?
Will you please just wait?
I'm working on it.
Why won't it work? Is it broken?
-What's going on?
-Turn it on already!
All right, it's ready now!
-One.
-Two, three!
It looks amazing!
It's so beautiful!
Red!
Green!
My whole body aches.
Detective Park made us do all the work
while he's out there having fun.
Traitor.
-This place is starting to change.
-You're right.
How was the hot air balloon? Was it nice?
Yes, it felt like I was flying.
All thanks to Thomas.
It was like a miracle.
I wish I could see him just once.
If that happens,
I'd have nothing more to ask for.
My son…
Hey, Wook.
Can you give me a hand?
Of course. What is it?
-Does this look okay?
-Yes, it's perfect.
Are you going to play a movie?
No, not a movie. But I want to play that.
So you're asking me
to turn that on, right?
Yes. I'll go and get everyone.
Okay.
Sure.
Everyone, let's all go inside now.
There's an event waiting for you.
An event?
Let's go.
Jun-su, come with us.
Hurry. Come here.
Let's go.
When it's red, you stop and wait.
Yes. I must cross when it's green
while checking if a car is coming or not.
That's it. Who do you take after?
You're such a smart boy, Beom-su.
Three, five, E.
Zero, eight, two, nine.
Three, five, E. Zero, eight, two, nine.
Beom-su.
Come inside.
Yes, Yeo-na.
So this is why she wanted the photos…
Thank you.
My mom took everything from me.
My friends conned me.
And then there was that bastard.
Because of them,
I thought all people were trash,
but things are different here.
I'm really happy here.
Look, comrades.
The world has changed so much.
It is a peaceful time.
I have so much to tell you,
but there's no way to reach you.
Jun-ho.
I will never give up.
So don't lose hope and wait for me.
She still hasn't come.
How cruel of you.
You made me see what I shouldn't have,
so at least send me my daughter.
Or at least send someone
who's seen Hyeon-ji.
I haven't been able to move
a step forward since that day.
I'm still right here.
This is unfair.
So unfair.
Jun-su, let's go outside and look around.
-Sure.
-Okay.
-Don't go too far.
-Okay.
Let's go.
Just a moment.
Just a few more minutes.
How long are you going to keep staring?
There's so much to do.
There's still more left to do?
Gosh…
Do this twice and we'll die of exhaustion.
I haven't suited up in a while,
and you just made me work.
Okay, fine. Let's go.
Let's go. So what do we have to do next?
Catch Manager Wang.
-We can start that tomorrow…
-And the bastard who killed your mom.
We must find them.
What are you talking about?
I mean your mom.
Speaking of which,
I'll go and ask her myself.
Jun-su's mom.
But how did he know I was here?
I'm planning to look into Detective Park,
who investigated Choiseung Construction,
and a 27-year-old case.
How do you know Kim Mi-ok?
-There's a reason why you see dead people.
-Please keep this a secret.
Do you know how I feel these days?
It's like I'm looking for a ghost
that doesn't exist.
-What are you doing?
-Hey.
-You're going to find Thomas?
-Why do you look so surprised?
How could you send Wook here too?
What did my son do wrong?
I miss you even more today.
