CASTAWAY DIVA
EPISODE 8
Your call cannot be connected.
-Is she not picking up?
-No.
She must've turned off her phone.
Nothing after Hamchang Station?
No. That was the last place
she was spotted.
How far is it from here?
It's about two hours away.
Don't speed.
Going faster won't help.
We'll just waste fuel.
I know.
Talk to me while we're on our way.
About what?
My memory isn't fully back.
There are still gaps.
So help me fill them in.
Which parts do you not remember?
The day I got hurt.
Let's start from there.
That day…
You hurt your head pretty badly
while protecting me from our father.
Bong-wan!
You were unconscious
for a while even after surgery.
Meanwhile,
our father was assigned
to work on Chunsam Island.
He decided to go there with just me.
Why just you two?
There weren't any big hospitals
on that island.
Mom said she'd come too
once you regained consciousness.
Ki-ho.
For the time being,
don't provoke your father.
Do as he says.
And then,
once spring comes,
come to me without letting him know.
Once Chae-ho wakes up,
I'll be in hiding from your father.
What if we get caught again?
What if someone gets hurt again?
Don't worry.
He'll never be able to find us this time.
I'm going to change our names
and phone numbers.
So come without letting him know.
Don't let anyone know.
Do it in secret.
But if you change everything,
how am I supposed to find you?
Over there.
On the back of that mailbox, I'll write
the address of where to go.
You have to come
without him knowing.
Okay?
She told me to come in the spring,
but I kept getting caught by our father.
After failing to run away with Mok-ha…
I finally managed to escape
after the summer.
DOLLARBIRD CHICKEN
143-11, HYOMIN-DONG, JEONGIN
DOLLARBIRD CHICKEN
Are you Jung Ki-ho?
Ki-ho!
Ki-ho!
You did well!
Good job.
This time,
Mom hid herself really well.
She changed her name, her phone number,
and even her address.
I asked her how she did it,
and she said an angel had helped her.
Then, it's everything as you remember.
Chae-ho doesn't remember
anything from the past.
So let's make new memories for him.
Good ones, okay?
Ta-da!
Hey, you're pretty handsome.
Father, is he really Bo-geol?
My younger brother?
What do you think? Don't we look so alike?
-Look at our eyes.
-I don't think so.
I had no idea and was all smiles.
You didn't remember anything,
so you were an entirely different person.
You smiled a lot and became talkative.
Don't we look alike?
Bo-geol, pour the water.
Okay. Is this much enough?
No, a bit more.
Dad, are you okay?
Mok-ha once said
that she wanted to spend
just one day in peace
-away from her father.
-Let's not camp anymore.
Here.
-Cheers.
-Cheers.
After spending a day like that,
it felt nice.
It felt like we were
on a picnic every day.
No!
Oh, no!
-Watch out!
-Help me, Woo-hak!
-Grab it, Woo-hak!
-Hold on tight!
I loved it so much…
that I felt sorry.
You felt sorry?
To who?
Mok-ha.
I wanted her to have
this kind of life too.
So I wanted to find her even more.
So that I could show her.
But how could you wait for 15 years
without knowing if she was alive?
You're incredible.
Mok-ha survived
on that island for 15 years.
Waiting for her was nothing.
I wonder
what this man said to her.
He probably asked her where we were,
and she probably said she didn't know.
That's why she disappeared?
So she could protect us.
HAMCHANG STATION
Let's split up and call if we find her.
What will you say to her?
-I'll say we should go home.
-I won't say that.
I'm going to tell her to hide even better.
-Woo-hak.
-I'll say that I'm sorry
but she should give up her dream.
For our family's sake, I'll ask her
to lie low so that man doesn't find her.
Just stay here. I'll look for her.
Mok-ha!
Seo Mok-ha!
Hey.
How long will it take?
Mok-ha.
I'm sorry.
What are you doing?
DAMCHEON RESTAURAN
Mok-ha!
Seo Mok-ha!
Hey, look.
Don't be alarmed when you hear this.
After the show yesterday…
Mr. Jung came to see me.
I know.
What?
That's it?
You told me not to be alarmed.
It looks like
your father won't give up until he finds
all of your family members.
Is that why you wanted to give up
your dream and disappear? To protect us?
That's not what's important right now!
If lying low is
the only way to protect us,
are you going to hide forever?
Yes. Of course.
It'd be a cakewalk.
I survived alone on a island for 15 years.
Hiding's easy. It'd be nothing.
Woo-hak.
Woo-hak.
Mok-ha, I'm sorry but--
-Please, Woo-hak.
-I'm sorry but…
Hey, Seo Mok-ha.
You're not supposed to say that.
You should say,
"That's your problem, not mine."
"I'll go my way no matter what you do."
That's what you should say.
How could I say that?
Would you say that if you were me?
Yes, I'd totally say that.
Didn't you know? I'm extremely selfish.
I'd sacrifice others for my own good.
And it's not just me.
Everyone is like that. But you…
Why do you…
If you act like this,
I can't say what I need to say.
What do you need to say? Say it now.
-That's enough.
-Mok-ha, you…
You…
I'm sorry but you…
Did you get that?
You're separate from our family.
Don't turn us
into people who weigh you down.
If you feel that bad,
give us money.
Money?
Will money fix everything?
It's better than not having any.
How much do you need?
I'd say…
about 3.2 billion won.
When do you need it by?
Not right away.
Maybe in ten years?
What's this?
Do you know who Michael Jordan is?
Of course, I do.
He was a basketball player.
They say his first autograph
was auctioned for 3.2 billion won.
Who knows?
Yours could be worth
something too one day.
Sign it for me.
I can't believe you.
How can you joke around
at a time like this?
I'm not joking though.
If you want to help us, become famous.
Don't hide.
Instead of a so-so singer,
become an incredibly famous one.
Good luck on the audition.
I hope you become a singer.
And not just any singer.
But one whose songs are played everywhere,
like on TV, in the streets,
and in restaurants.
A singer whose first autograph
is put up for auction
and whose songs change the world.
That kind of singer.
If you become that famous,
he won't be able to do anything.
So…
sign this for me.
What should I write?
Write…
what you want to say right now.
In a moment, turn left.
What? We have to stay
on this road for Seoul.
Woo-hak, what did you set
as the destination?
Today is Saturday.
And tomorrow is Sunday.
-Starting Monday, it'll be a war.
-What are you talking about?
The weather's great today.
What?
The view's nice too.
It's a great day for a picnic.
Hi!
How did you know we were here?
Surprise.
We stuck trackers on you.
Woo-hak told us the location.
You said you wanted to go camping.
You wanted to show Mok-ha.
Goodness, let me.
Sure.
This place hasn't changed one bit.
Isn't it beautiful here?
It is.
Let's unload the gear.
We brought tons of stuff.
All right.
What about our clothes?
-What?
-Clothes.
All right.
-Put it in.
-Okay.
Okay.
Bo-geol, is this high enough?
-Mok-ha.
-Yeah?
-Come over here.
-Okay.
-Do these light up?
-Yes.
-Do we hang these up?
-Yes.
No, this.
Hang them over here.
-All set?
-Yeah.
I bet they'll look super pretty.
There's a few more.
Okay.
Really? I bet it's still hot.
-I don't have one.
-It's really good.
The fire isn't that strong.
Loser washes the dishes.
Rock, paper, scissors!
-Rock, paper, scissors!
-Rock, paper, scissors!
-Rock, paper, scissors!
-Rock, paper, scissors!
Aren't you a bit too happy?
She's right. You're so mean.
-You can rest.
-No, I can't…
Ki-ho, can you pass me
that lid over there?
-This?
-Yeah.
Attention.
Time out.
Let's clear up some stuff.
"Clear up some stuff"?
What do you mean?
He's Kang Bo-geol, and I'm Kang Woo-hak.
Jung Ki-ho and Jung Chae-ho
don't exist in this world. Got that?
Goodness.
You're right.
You and I are the same age.
He's a year younger than us.
You can speak casually when it's just us,
but be careful when we're outside.
Got it.
Here's the final part.
The past series of events have told me
you two used to be fond of each other.
So tell me.
Do you still have those feelings?
Goodness. Not at all.
Yes, I still do.
It'd be weird if I didn't.
What kind of lunatic searches 15 years
for someone he's uninterested in?
That's true.
Okay. Got it.
Was this also a part
of clearing things up?
Of course.
All right.
Let's resume dishwashing. Turn around.
Dream us
The little girl who used to dream
Dream us
Shining brighter than the stars
Dream us
My heart will never change
I'm still dreaming of you
When the sun rises in the distance
In this eternally dark place
I pray that at the end
Of this path we're taking
Will be a bright future waiting for us
I won't shed a tear
No matter what hardships may come
I'll ride the waves of fate
And take your hand
When it becomes too foggy
We can rely on each other
Until the morning sunlight comes
Dream us
The little girl who used to dream
Dream us
Shining brighter than the stars
Dream us
My heart will never change
I'm still dreaming of you
With my eyes wide open
Even if the entire world ridicules me
For this path that I'm taking
I'll follow the map drawn
By my earnest heart
And run forward once again
Dream us
The little girl who used to dream
Dream us
Shining brighter than the stars
Dream us
My heart will never change
I'm still dreaming of you
With my eyes wide open
Dream us
Dream us
You're so good!
To hear you in person was amazing!
Gosh, I can't believe I heard that live.
Thank you for letting us listen!
-It was my pleasure.
-Goodness.
Thank you.
I'll put the guitar in my car.
Mok-ha, you can ride in my car.
Okay.
Woo-hak, you can call shotgun.
I'll take my car.
-I'll drive, Dad.
-Really? Sure.
What about Ms. Yoon?
Is she still not picking up?
No.
No excuse could cut it.
If I were in her shoes,
I wouldn't want to see myself either.
I'll go see her and explain.
Goodness. It's okay.
Don't concern yourself with my business.
I'm separate from your family.
How are you going to apologize?
I don't know.
I'm afraid and don't know what to do.
But avoiding it won't fix anything.
I should meet her first and talk.
Right.
What is she doing with those stones?
She's forming a stone tower.
Prayers tend to be answered here
thanks to the mountains.
There's something I learned
during my 15 years on the island.
Go!
Go away!
Don't come here!
Go away!
Please!
Praying…
won't bring miracles.
An oncoming typhoon
will still hit despite your prayers.
But you still pray because…
"Let's withstand the typhoon."
"Let's make a miracle happen."
"I have the power within me."
Because you need that resolve.
CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR BEGINNING.
FROM YOUR FIRST FAN, YOON RAN-JOO
HEYDAY AGAIN
TO MY FIRST FAN, THANK YOU.
SEO MOK-HA
FIRST FAN VS. FIRST FAN
BROTHERS SALON
When will you be done, Dad?
We're going to order Chinese.
In about 30 minutes.
-I want japchae rice.
-Okay.
Okay. What would you like?
For the first time in a while,
I'm finally going to see my family again.
I want to look like a good father.
-Would that be possible?
-Of course. Just leave it to me.
That must be your family.
Yes, it is.
Seeing how
that woman looks familiar,
that must be my family.
Sorry?
Father.
Not yours.
BROTHERS SALON
What are you doing?
In my dreams, that man…
What?
That man appeared in my dreams.
He recognized Mom in this photo.
Oh, dear.
You must've had that dream
because he came looking for Mok-ha.
It's better to be safe than sorry.
Don't worry.
I'll protect you all.
I'll protect our family and Mok-ha too.
I'll protect us.
Protecting someone
isn't about how big you are.
It's about your heart.
I'll protect you.
We're similar.
No?
I think we're similar.
-Our looks?
-Yes.
-Where's Bo-geol?
-He left early for the countryside.
What business does he have there?
Beats me.
-Honey.
-Yes?
-Isn't this your underwear?
-Yes.
What?
Ask Woo-hak.
Right. Well…
Woo-hak, you see…
There's something I'm curious about.
So it's about… Well…
It's a bit personal--
Woo-hak.
We were wondering…
How do you feel about Mok-ha?
What?
I mean,
you showed her quite a bit of attention.
In my opinion,
if you weren't just being friendly but…
How do I put it?
It's…
If you've developed
romantic feelings for her,
then Bo-geol--
That's what this is about, Mom?
I'm just being friendly.
No more, no less. That's it.
Right?
See? I told you.
You were right.
Honestly, I did almost
develop feelings for her.
-What?
-What?
But very briefly.
It was when I thought
maybe I was Jung Ki-ho.
I was attracted to her as Ki-ho.
You know how well I empathize.
-I have the "feeling" trait in my MBTI.
-Right.
Now that I know I'm not Ki-ho,
I see her as my brother's friend.
That's it. Satisfied?
-Okay. Done.
-Okay.
-Done.
-Okay.
Goodness.
It sounds more absurd by the minute.
Did you think Bo-geol and I
would've had a nasty fight over a girl?
It's possible to imagine such a thing.
Unbelievable.
Don't be so ridiculous, okay?
We're sorry.
-I'll take that.
-Okay.
Thanks.
It's very sunny today.
Goodness.
Why did he have to get so upset?
You know I was a police officer, right?
I can see through you.
You're lying right now.
Ki-ho is hiding nearby.
Goodness!
Why are you dressed like that?
Hey, what are you doing here?
I see. The laundry.
Where are you headed?
I'm going to find out where Ran-joo is.
By yourself?
Do you have any company?
No, I can go alone.
And Bo-geol just happens to be away.
Did you have lunch?
I had a late breakfast.
Let's go together. I'll drop you off.
No, that's okay.
I don't want to eat alone.
Let's eat on our way there.
"Eat on our way there"?
Come on.
Okay, I'll go buy it.
Stay put.
Hello. May I take your order?
Two chicken sandwich combo meals, please.
Okay. Please drive up to the next window.
What was that?
Never seen one before?
It's "th," not "s."
"Th."
I get to eat with someone,
and you get a free ride.
That's a two-for-one. Nice.
Yeah, this is nice.
See?
It's so crispy
since we get to eat it right away.
It's a three-for-one.
I agree.
Woo-hak.
What?
Thanks.
Bo-geol asked me to escort you.
He's busy with something today.
-Thank you.
-You're welcome.
-One ticket to Chunsam Island.
-Okay.
Here you go.
Thank you.
You still can't reach Ran-joo?
No.
She hasn't reached out to you either?
No. Look.
I've been calling to give her this,
but she's not picking up.
This is a report
on the number of albums sold.
I did some quick calculations,
and to reach 20 million,
she has less than 20,000 to sell,
Yes, you're right.
She has 19,345 albums left to sell now.
Yes. And here.
These people are interested in you.
Goodness. Why are there so many?
These are ones
I narrowed down from a pile.
There's an agency willing to release
an album as soon as you sign.
There's also a fashion magazine
that wants to do
a deserted-island-themed photo shoot.
So look carefully and make your decision.
Okay. Goodness.
I can't believe this.
And…
I would like to throw my hat
into this ring too.
SUGAR AGENCY
-You too, sir?
-Yes.
You should hurry and make up your mind
while their interest is still high.
This is your time
to be bold instead of cautious.
Okay. I'll discuss with Ran-joo
as soon as I see her and decide.
By the way, why has she disappeared?
She's too old to be rebelling.
I made a huge mistake.
What?
Do you know what you become
when you're too kind?
A pushover?
Yes. A pushover.
That's how I feel right now.
I feel like a pushover.
After everything she went through,
how could she give up so easily?
I'm sure it wasn't an easy decision.
Mok-ha must've had a good reason
to give up on her dream.
Exactly.
And that reason
is bigger than Yoon Ran-joo.
You're right.
It's bigger than me.
And she won't change.
So how can I bet my life
on a girl like her?
Don't you agree?
You're right.
It's fascinating.
How do you understand me so well
as if you can read my mind?
Of course, I understand you well.
Because…
you're…
You're…
Do you recognize me?
You're…
You are…
Who are you?
Mom.
I'm your daughter.
I'm Yoon Ran-joo, your daughter.
I'm Yoon Ran-joo though.
No, that's me.
Your name is Ko San-hee.
"Ko San-hee"?
She's identifying herself as you
more and more as time goes by.
She looks up your name
dozens of times a day.
On search engines, video streaming sites,
and even social media.
What she finds online
directly affects her condition.
She's happy when she reads good articles
and depressed when she finds bad ones.
This is driving me insane.
I should get rid of her phone.
We've tried that.
She won't eat
until we give it back to her.
And her condition worsens.
What should I do then?
When those articles
about your revival came out recently,
she came to her senses for a minute.
She said she had something to give you.
What was it?
I'm not sure. It was only for a moment.
If you work hard and they write
a lot of nice articles about you,
her condition will improve.
What kind of nice articles
are there for a singer in her forties?
They're all ones that ridicule me.
Brush off your worries
And let's cha-cha-cha
Goodness.
I'm sorry, but we're closed.
Hello, sir.
Who are you?
I'm Ki-ho.
Do you remember me?
Ki-ho…
Jung Ki-ho, is that you?
Are you really Ki-ho?
Jae-sik, is it okay to carry heavy things?
Shouldn't men protect their lower backs?
It is him. It's Ki-ho!
Goodness.
Were you alive all along?
Goodness.
You little punk.
Your father has been looking
everywhere for you.
Goodness.
I can't believe this.
Here.
Can't you give me more vouchers?
There's construction this month,
so I need to park often.
I'm sorry.
If the vouchers are missing,
I need to pay for them myself.
I can tell you
were a former police officer.
You're too strict.
I'm sorry.
MOON YONG-GU
Hello, Yong-gu. How have you been?
Really?
Are you sure it's Ki-ho?
I'm certain.
I saw him with my own eyes.
Jae-sik saw him too.
Ki-ho told us to keep it
a secret from his father!
So how could you--
He said he was a photographer.
He travels around the country
and takes photos.
Goodness, what do I do?
You should be old enough
to know when to keep quiet.
Goodness, you know what?
I prepared a feast
of marinated crabs for him.
He said it was so delicious
and that he'd visit often.
Look. How about you come here?
Yeah, and do a stake out.
You should do a stake out.
All right.
Thank you.
You're wearing glasses often these days.
My eyes have felt dry.
I heard Mok-ha was going
to RJ Entertainment today.
I heard. She's meeting President Lee.
You'll drive her there, right?
No.
Just drop her off.
I'm busy today.
Come on.
People have started recognizing her now.
They track her every movement
and post it online.
What if that man
follows her like last time?
Don't worry. She'll be okay.
I'll head out first.
You said you still had feelings for her.
This is--
This is how you show that?
"She'll be okay"?
Is that something you say
if you still have feelings for her?
How am I more worried about her?
By any chance,
have you seen Ran-joo around?
Who?
Ms. Yoon Ran-joo?
Yes, Ms. Yoon Ran-joo.
No, I haven't.
Artists don't visit the agency that often.
Right. I'm aware of that.
But you see…
Why are you asking about that?
You're her manager, aren't you?
Ran-joo said
that she'd be dropping by today.
I thought I'd ask
since I had business here anyway.
What business do you have here?
President Lee wanted to see me.
He did?
Why?
RJ ENTERTAINMEN
PRESIDENT LEE SEO-JUN
You want to sign me to a contract?
Yes.
As an artist, not a manager.
You said I wasn't qualified last time.
You said I was way too old to debut.
You seem to hold onto
long grudges, Ms. Seo.
I'll take that as you saying
I'm consistent.
Relationships often change
depending on the circumstances.
We couldn't share
the same path in the past.
But now, things have changed.
How come?
People are very much interested in you.
Your fame as of now
is a resource that can't be measured
by money or time.
And I want that.
We'll be showcasing our artists
in front of investors next month.
I'd like you to be on that stage.
What do you say?
Thank you
for the great offer.
But I don't think
the circumstances have changed.
Whether it was back then or now,
the most important thing to me
is selling 20 million of Ran-joo's albums.
You're still talking about that?
We'll be achieving that goal shortly.
If I ever decide to release an album,
that'll be after Ran-joo gets back half
of this agency's shares.
That order will never change,
so please remember that.
You're devoting yourself to be
a manager instead of a singer?
Correct.
Think this through.
Interest is short-lived.
The fire will soon die out
if you don't add firewood.
What are you doing here?
I was too curious to just ignore it.
It's nothing to be curious about.
Ran-joo sure is lucky
to have an unwavering fan like you.
She also had fans who cold feet like you.
If you came to audition that day…
I'll admit it.
You could be standing where I am now.
But you should also admit
that you can have
a change of heart like I did.
I'm afraid I can't do that.
Ran-joo cut ties with you, didn't she?
"Cut ties"?
No, she didn't.
She will soon.
She'd adore and dote on you.
Then, she'll suddenly cut ties
and disappear.
That's her specialty.
I'd like Mok-ha to join my agency.
Can you talk her into it?
This is Reporter Lee from Enter Click.
-I'd like an interview.
-Ran-joo.
We invite you and Ms. Seo
to our radio show.
I asked Ms. Seo to join
our agency as an artist.
But Ms. Seo was more focused
-on the 20 million…
-This is Wonder Entertainment.
I'd like to recruit Ms. Seo.
Mok-ha seems to listen to you. Can you
persuade her to be on our show again?
Ran-joo, at least let me hear your voice.
I miss you, Ran-joo.
POWER OFF
FOUR SEASON NURSING HOME
I get it now after going through it.
As President Lee said, relationships
change depending on circumstances.
That premise
bothers me.
It seems you're blaming the circumstances
when you're the one who changed.
That's how it sounds to me.
Gosh, that's refreshing.
This spicy seafood stew
should be the signature dish.
Really? You should come by often then.
We won't ever charge you.
Hey, Ki-ho.
Your father came by a few days ago.
The zipper on my father's mouth
broke again.
I did my best to stop him,
but he told your father everything.
What did he say?
You see, your father
loves you so much.
He's so relieved that you're alive.
He was thankful.
He was worried sick about you.
What else?
And…
Well…
I'm a bit hesitant to relay this message.
But he wanted me to tell you this.
What is it?
He said he knew why you came.
He said
-you were lying…
-Ki-ho
is lying.
To hide from me,
he probably changed his name.
I must've finally found him.
He was anxious,
so he probably came here to distract me.
Tell him he doesn't need
to come all the way here.
It's so far.
If he just waits…
I will…
come find him.
STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS FOR DOMESTIC ABUSE
Five years?
It's been way too long.
SENTENCE FOR PATRICIDE
Everyone, did you know?
These two are trending
the most these days.
Yoon Ran-joo and Seo Mok-ha,
K-pop's leading mentor and mentee,
appeared on Karaoke with the Stars,
our oldest segment.
And that was 15 years ago.
All right, then.
Let's listen to their call at the time.
Hello?
Ran-joo?
Is it really you?
This was Seo Mok-ha in middle school.
Yes, it's me. Yoon Ran-joo.
It's me, Ran-joo.
And this was Yoon Ran-joo
from 15 years ago.
Ran-joo, it's really you!
Ran-joo, I love you so much!
I truly love you!
-Goodness.
-Oh, my. Ms. Seo Mok-ha.
You shouldn't cry already. Just a moment.
This is Karaoke with the Stars.
Today's guest has been topping
all music charts.
She's Korea's number one diva.
The queen of K-pop.
No, she's the goddess.
I'm here with Yoon Ran-joo.
We're on the phone with the listener
who'll sing along with her.
Ms. Seo Mok-ha?
Yes. Hello…
How are you?
How are…
Ran-joo!
Ran-joo, on the phone,
your voice sounds so beautiful.
She's adorable.
I just love your accent, Ms. Seo Mok-ha.
Goodness. How cute.
Ran-joo.
Can you…
Can you say my name once more?
Ms. Seo Mok-ha.
You know what?
I could die in peace right now.
This right here.
Ki-ho… I mean.
Bo-geol hung up the phone.
What?
What a jerk.
Sadly, the call was cut off here.
I cried for four days straight
because of this.
For four days?
Jeez, I would've cut ties with him.
It would've been a moment
in history had she sung.
What a shame.
I agree.
What a shame.
That was Yoon Ran-joo and Seo Mok-ha
-from 15 years ago…
-Do you think
Ran-joo is listening to this too?
Why aren't you upset?
Isn't it unfair?
Let's be honest.
If it weren't for you,
she wouldn't have been able
to take the stage again.
You just wanted a break
because you had to--
Woo-hak.
Can I borrow your phone?
What for?
Well…
She might not pick up my calls,
but she might pick up yours.
Unlock this.
Ran-joo!
It's me, Mok-ha.
It's Mok-ha, Ran-joo.
Ran-joo!
Please don't hang up.
Can you please--
Can you please hear me out?
Ms. Seo?
Ran-joo,
is that you?
Yes, it is.
What's wrong?
It's her number,
but someone else picked up.
Can I speak with Ran-joo, please?
You're talking to her.
Where are you, Ms. Seo?
Well…
I'm on my way home.
And where's that?
Mom!
Where did she go?
My phone.
Where is it?
BROTHERS SALON
Mom!
Mom!
She isn't picking up?
She only answers
when you call her "Ran-joo."
Ran-joo!
Ran-joo!
Yoon Ran-joo!
It's nice to meet you, Ms. Seo Mok-ha.
I'm…
Yoon Ran-joo.
I see. It's nice to meet you.
Well…
What brings you here?
You said it was your dream
to sing with me.
I came here to grant your wish.
She lies with such sincerity.
I don't think she's lying.
I think she's ill.
Excuse me.
You're getting a call.
What? A call?
Yes.
Right.
Hello?
Mom!
-Where are you now?
-Wait.
May I?
Hello?
Ran-joo?
Ran-joo!
It's me, Mok-ha!
What?
She's Yoon Ran-joo's mother?
What?
Did you get an exclusive?
No, that's not intriguing enough.
Dig deeper.
Bye.
Anything about Yoon Ran-joo
is intriguing these days.
What is it?
Someone is impersonating her mother.
Jeez, all sorts of lunatics
are appearing now that she's popular.
Tell me about it.
So?
Is she really her mother?
Is this Reporter Kang Woo-hak?
Speaking. Who is this?
Hello.
You recently came by to cover
the hornet car accident.
Yes, I remember.
You're the victim's wife, right?
Yes, I am.
My name is Moon Young-ju.
There's someone I'm looking for.
You're looking for someone?
I'm not sure if you know,
but she recently appeared on Heyday Again.
Her name's Seo Mok-ha.
I'd like to get her number.
What is this about?
Here.
What is this?
You wanted to look
for the person who caused the crash.
I looked through the GPS
in your husband's car.
It's a list of places he'd been
before the accident. Take a look.
See if you recognize any.
I thought you said
hornets caused the accident.
Exactly.
Imagine how uneasy I must've felt
to go to the junkyard
while off-duty
in this scorching heat.
Even the preliminary investigation
had closed the case already.
But I still looked into it, you know?
You know what?
I'm not thankful at all.
That's what
police officers should do.
So why are you showing off about it?
"Damwon Building."
"Jeongsan Building"?
Jeongsan Building
was the last place he visited.
Does it ring any bells?
Did anyone there
have resentment toward your husband
or lend him money?
Dae-woong had no enemies.
How am I supposed to
know anything with just this?
"Jeongsan Building"?
Hello, sir.
The police officer suddenly arrived.
It won't take long.
Wait…
Sir, that's…
There's someone I know at this building.
Who?
How do you know Ms. Seo Mok-ha?
We went to the same middle school.
Chunsam Middle School.
JEONGSAN BUILDING
DAILY SECURITY LOG
Ki-ho.
When I was on the island,
do you know what my biggest fear was?
The typhoons.
Especially the ones
that lingered in the ocean the longest.
Where's my mom?
She's inside.
They feed off the ocean
and grow into humongous typhoons.
That's why
typhoons that linger in the ocean
frighten me the most.
I got a lot of calls
from people looking for you.
But you don't seem too busy.
I thought
I should apologize to you first.
Ran-joo.
I'm sorry.
I have no excuse.
I'm to blame for everything.
You tried your best
to help me achieve my dream.
But I ran away just like that,
so I understand how disappointed
you must be in me.
From now on,
this will never happen again--
No, it will keep happening.
No. Never.
"Never" is a word that doesn't exist.
You'll run away again
due to unavoidable circumstances.
And you'll apologize to me again.
Betting my life on someone
like you is too pitiful to do.
It's such a waste.
Hello?
President Lee, it's me.
Let's rewrite our contract.
You know what contract. My contract.
Tomorrow,
let's terminate it.
I don't care about the 20 million albums.
Let's just end it.
Ran-joo.
What are you doing?
You've almost reached your goal.
I'm sick and tired of looking after
a talentless girl.
Ran-joo…
Those typhoons don't just shake the trees.
They're powerful enough to uproot them.
Just like how those typhoons grow
by feeding off the ocean,
misunderstandings
grow by feeding off time.

Who is it?
Who's there?
Who--
Father.
It's me.
I'm Ki-ho.
CASTAWAY DIVA
SENTENCE FOR PATRICIDE
What are you doing here at this hour?
Well…
I didn't want to wake Woo-hak up.
Yeah.
I wonder what you were looking at.
You're even stuttering.
Were you
looking at something filthy
in secret by yourself?
You must be psychic.
Goodness.
You shouldn't do that!
That's a crime!
Fine. I won't look anymore.
You see…
I personally don't like men
who look at such things.
Don't you even think about it.
You should never.
Come on. Promise me.
Okay.
I'll never do it.
Don't ruin yourself
with something like that.
Okay. Thanks.
To show her how strong I am,
I thought I should make
the boldest decision ever.
I came to ask you for another favor.
I heard you're identifying fingerprints.
This is a tip-off, not a request.
Why did you lie?
So how was it?
Your first day without your father?
Don't let
President Lee find out about it.
All of us.
We're all worthless! Okay?
Giving up requires courage too?
Aren't you afraid of failing?
If that was the case,
then I wouldn't be here right now.
Are you ready?
