Jung Woo Following Kids

(Awaken)
(All locations, characters, companies, and incidents)
(in this drama are fictitious.)
Is the end finally in sight?
The first shot is a blank.
You know the rest.
Get up.
The first shot is a blank.
I can't say the same about the rest.
Freeze.
Back off.
Captain. Captain! Wake up.
Wake up, captain.
Oh dear. It's okay. Go on.
(Awaken)
(Episode 11)
Captain. Wake up. Captain. Wake up.
Captain!
Wake up. Captain.
Excuse me.
Hello.
What do you want?
Kimchi stew, please.
- You scared me. - Doctor.
What? What is it?
Superintendent Do!
What happened?
He was given an injection.
I don't know what it was.
What are these wounds? The scratches.
A truck T-boned his car.
Superintendent Do. Can you hear me?
- Did he hit his head? - I'm not sure.
He was fine before the injection.
The external injuries aren't severe. I need to examine him further,
but it was probably a sedative.
So
Hello.
Let's see.
What should I
Don't worry too much.
His labs look fine.
His injuries aren't that bad.
He'll be fine once he wakes up.
You should rest too.
I'll go upstairs and get some stuff that I need.
We have a problem.
I think Do Jung Woo followed me.
I got the call.
It was a good opportunity to catch him.
That idiot.
Thank goodness you had put strict security on me.
I heard your daughter took him.
What?
How?
She must have followed you.
So this is where we are.
The mouse that we lost 28 years ago
doesn't know his place
Given what it is, we should vamp up security.
I'll run the tests only on them for the time being.
Yes, since we don't know when Do Jung Woo will show up.
I don't think we can discard the waste as we had been.
That's right. Think of a way and let me know.
How could we run into each other here?
Have a drink.
In broad daylight?
Alcohol gives you much more energy than food ever will.
How did you know about this place?
Lieutenant Gong Hye Won came to see me.
She brought a file that was in the laptop
in that counseling building.
It required a fingerprint to open it. How did she
She unlocked it with her fingerprint.
Interesting, right? Know what's more interesting?
Lieutenant Gong's father, Dr. Gong Il Do,
is associated with White Night Village.
Lieutenant Gong's father?
It's Do Jung Woo.
It wasn't a coincidence that she joined the special team.
Perhaps.
Aren't you going to work?
I'm about to.
Auntie. Have you lived here long?
What do you care?
I'm a reporter, you see.
I want to make some money by writing an amazing article.
That's why I came all the way to the boonies.
Come sit down.
What's there to know about a rural area like here?
My gosh, there's a lot to know.
It may have been 30 years ago,
but I heard an entire family died here.
Why did you bring them to our house?
We thought they had run away from home.
But it turns out, they poisoned us. I mean, what did we do wrong?
I don't know where they went after that.
Once I woke up,
they were already gone somewhere.
I can't believe we got to talk to one of the victims of the case.
How interesting.
We're at the right place.
It was probably the third kid.
It's a lot more serious than I thought.
At least we know he came to this village.
Let's keep asking around.
("Police Gets Rewarded for Solving Serial Robbery Case")
(Diploma, Do Jung Woo)
I will torment you both for leaving me all by myself.
Don't go! Don't leave me here all alone!
Please don't go!
This time, he might kill me too.
Why did you want to see me?
I'm surprised you called a has-been like me.
I know the real culprit of the forewarned murders.
I thought Do Jung Woo was the culprit.
No, it's not him.
It's the third kid who survived the White Night Village incident.
- His name is Moon Jae Woong. - What?
Why didn't you tell me this earlier?
So you knew about this even when the board executives
and Nam Woo Cheon got killed?
I had no choice.
If I hadn't listened to him, he would've killed me too.
You know they're not normal human beings like us.
So what?
Why are you telling me this?
You will
eventually become a target as well.
And I will keep an eye on him and inform you of his next move.
What do you want in return?
I want you to guarantee my life.
Did you tell this to anyone else but me?
No.
Then let's keep it that way.
I'll call you, sir.
Now I'm going to check if you guys are healthy or not.
Is this a hospital?
Why? Are you scared?
Should I start with the other kids?
No, I'll go first.
What's that?
Won't it hurt?
No, it won't hurt.
It's just to check if everything is okay
- No! - with your brain.
- I don't want to do it! - Stop it.
- I don't want to do it! - Stop!
It's okay.
(Cho Hyun Hee)
You don't need to be scared.
It's okay. You'll be fine.
You don't need to be scared.
You're awake.
Are you okay?
Yes. What about you?
I'm okay.
Hey, you're awake.
It was Zoletil.
It's normally used as veterinary anesthesia.
And it could be dangerous when used in large doses.
But you seem fine.
I think I slept well. I actually feel a lot better.
I think I'll be able to move if I get some more rest.
Then you should get some rest.
I'll go get some food.
Yes, you're probably not okay yet, so you should lie back down.
Okay, thank you.
Don't come near me!
Go away!
Go away! Leave!
Dad! That jerk is staring at me again!
Go away.
Don't come near me.
Get lost.
Someone's here to meet you, sir.
As you already know only three kids survived
the White Night Village incident.
One of them is Do Jung Woo.
The second kid is unknown.
And the last person is Jamie Leighton.
Unfortunately, I called her here
to find the culprit of the forewarned murders.
You called a survivor of the White Night Village incident?
I only recently found out. She told me herself.
She just knows that she was one of the kids there.
Jamie Leighton will become Do Jung Woo's weakness.
Next time, you must be careful of those kids.
They'll become a big threat to the foundation soon.
You really messed things up for someone who knows that so well.
You gave information to Do Jung Woo way too easily.
You should've kept your mouth shut.
Is the president aware of all this?
The president
is Do Jung Woo's target.
I'll deal with it, so please just leave.
What if I bring you the three kids that survived?
What will you do then?
If you manage to do that, it'll make me very happy.
I've been neglected by the foundation
ever since what happened at White Night Village.
I was always scared that someone might come
and kill me.
If I bring the kids, promote me as the chairman of the foundation.
You can get anything you want if you succeed in doing that.
Don't come near me!
Is there a problem with your son?
According to the files,
White Night Village was located in an isolated island.
They probably built it there, so nothing would get leaked
to the outside world.
An island in the middle of the sea.
The kids there probably couldn't even dream of escaping that place.
The Night of Tragedy.
I wonder how the three of us managed to escape the island.
I don't know.
You were one of them.
You might remember something if you enter the village.
You should call Jang Yong Shik, the CEO of MODU.
Some of the foundation members who had the same symptoms
received a lot of help from him.
Hello, sir.
Hell, Mr. Jang. I have something to discuss with you.
Do you have time tomorrow?
I'll tell you what it's about after we meet.
Okay, sure.
Okay, I'll call you.
He has something to discuss with me.
I need to go somewhere for a while.
Rest up.
You did the right thing.
What? What do you mean?
They should be here by now.
You called the deputy chief, didn't you?
I just
It's okay. I understand. I would've done the same thing.
You should turn yourself in. You can't always be on the run.
What should we do? Shouldn't we leave?
No, wait. I'm not expecting the cops.
Who are you people? What
What is this?
Get him!
Stay there until the cops come.
Superintendent Do.
I'm sorry.
It's okay.
Okay. Let's hang up.
I'm sorry, sir. They lost him.
I heard.
Anyway, please continue to cooperate with me.
Of course.
You can't stay the deputy chief forever.
You'll surely get promoted in return for your cooperation.
But
why couldn't you send the police
That's not your concern.
I'll be waiting for your call.
Okay, sir.
Until when are you going to keep losing him like this?
I'm sorry, sir.
Dr. Gong will call you. Do as he asks.
Yes, sir.
Do you feel better?
Yes, I'll be fine once the drug is completely out of my body.
I had no idea she'd betray us.
She works for the government, so she did the right thing.
If she didn't report me, it would've put her in trouble.
I work for the government as well, but I don't mind getting in trouble.
(50 dollars)
That place gives me the creeps, so I never go near there.
But I'm only going there because you wish to find your childhood memory.
It's too dark now,
so meet me here early tomorrow morning.
Thank you, sir.
Bye. See you tomorrow.
My goodness.
At least we convinced one person to take us there.
We should find a place to sleep.
I'm not sure
if you'll be able to find a room in an old village like this one.
I used to work for the FBI, okay?
The laptop.
It was you, wasn't it?
You registered my fingerprint in that laptop, didn't you?
White Night Village,
my dad,
and you.
What kind of horrible incident happened there?
The truth will come out one day.
Take me with you.
Do you know what that means?
Yes, I know.
Things can get a lot more difficult than what you expect.
Plus, you don't need to do this.
Yes, I do.
I think you should just forget about all this and live your life.
But
if you think about it
and still wish
to come with me,
you can join me then.
What are you doing, FBI?
What is that?
Why?
You really can't sleep unless you're home?
I can only sleep in my own bed.
Being a germophobe is a real pain in the neck.
That's why it's a disease.
Anyway. Are you sure you were experimented on too?
I have OCD, mysophobia, paranoia,
and my brain is a mess.
Why would I doubt it?
Well
That's not what I mean.
You seem
human like us.
But Do Jung Woo was different.
Hello.
(Blocked number)
(Truck license plate: Seoul 88B8624)
(Seoul 88B8624)
It was nice meeting you.
- Get back safely. - Get back safely.
- See you again. - See you next time.
Bye.
Let's wait until she leaves.
I had a great time.
Let's go home.
Who are you?
Don't bother.
It's dangerous if kids open the door while the car is moving,
so even cars have safety features.
But you did bad things to kids.
- You killed my son, didn't you? - Lee Tae Soo.
No. But does only your son matter?
Where did you send the kids from Seoul Hangang Welfare Center?
- I don't know. - Really?
Okay, then.
Stop. What are you doing?
Hey
Stop the car!
Wait. Oh Jung Hwan.
The Blue House Chief Secretary
ordered everything.
All I did was send the kids as he ordered.
I don't know
where they're sent or what they do to them.
You're helping me out.
If you keep doing what you have been,
my share will increase.
My safety is my top priority.
(Bed and Breakfast)
(Gemi Market)
It's raining too hard to go today.
Let's try tomorrow.
But
- What now? - What choice do we have?
We'll have to wait for a day and see how things will change tomorrow.
Darn it. Look at the weather.
Is Mother Nature angry about us
digging into what happened 28 years ago?
Let's go.
We can't go by ourselves.
We can't bring the other kids.
We'll die too then.
Still! We can't leave them!
You're a monster.
You're a monster!
- Are you all right? - A monster
Hey. How do you feel?
Not great.
If you secretly take something, give me some.
- Share with me. - You and your mouth.
Where did you go?
I met with Lee Byung Sun's wife again.
- What did she say? - Do you know Oh Jung Hwan?
I think he's a core player of White Night Foundation.
Hey.
What?
Okay.
What is it? Is something wrong?
Hyun Soo, the drug dealer,
is dead.
Yes, it's him.
It was Hyun Soo.
It looks like he was hit with a blunt object.
That poor punk.
He talked on and on about getting a sports car,
but he made money selling drugs to pay for his grandma's surgery.
She could've gotten the surgery with the money you gave him, but
Life is so unfair.
Shouldn't living and dying be fair to everyone?
I told him to be careful.
All he left behind is his phone.
(Client 1818 Oh Kyung Min)
(Client 1818 Oh Kyung Min)
Thank you for your hard work. Public sentiment is so
What state would this nation be in
if not for all the portals?
This is all thanks to your help.
What did you want to see me about?
I heard you've helped members of the foundation
manage their stress very well.
That's correct.
I'm always under a lot of stress from running a company,
so I met a psychiatrist who helps me manage it.
It's very effective.
I referred the psychiatrist to many of the members.
You must be under a lot of stress from running the country too.
It isn't for me.
It's embarrassing, but it's for my son.
I'd like to ask that psychiatrist to treat my son.
It'll be easier than expected.
What are you talking about?
Moon Jae Woong did send Lee Ji Wook those videos,
but not the warnings.
Of course, not.
Why would he do something you didn't order?
Then who sent them?
(Serial Killer Do Jung Woo's Whereabouts Unknown)
It was him. Do Jung Woo.
How about we go fishing?
Fishing for what?
To catch Do Jung Woo.
Soldiers from an unknown organization
Are you sure you don't want to see a doctor?
My memories come flooding in randomly at times.
Then I get extremely dizzy
like some after effect.
Like PTSD?
So? What did you remember that you fainted earlier?
What did you mean by "monster"?
A memory that has haunted me since I was a child.
Night of Tragedy
The night I fled from the monster.
That curiosity led me here.
So? Did you remember who that monster was?
It became
slightly clearer.
You're a monster. You're a monster!
It must be tough.
I understand what you meant by that your brain is a mess.
At first, I thought
this case was made up by some brilliant attention-seeking psycho.
I thought, since the world was going crazy,
the psychos were running rampant.
I mean, what kind of lunatic sends a warning about killing someone
and alerts everyone
It was a freebie that landed on my lap anyway,
so I thought I'd play along and get my name out there.
How simple.
But now, I'm so curious. I want to know who the killer is.
What if that serial killer,
who doesn't get blood on his hands or even appear at the scene,
really is that third kid who survived White Night Village?
What if he's getting revenge on White Night Foundation
for using him as a test subject?
Talk about dramatic.
I wondered why Superintendent Do sent you those warnings.
I get it now.
Do Jung Woo?
Do Jung Woo and the third kid
are both amazing.
Regardless, I've come this far. I need to see it through to the end.
I wonder
how it'll end too.
Mom, what did you like about Dad?
That's random.
All he cares about is his research.
He isn't that great as a man or husband.
Who thought about things like that back in the day?
I may have thought I should have someone like him in my life.
Maybe that was why?
What is it? Are you having problems with your dad?
Are you mad because he told you to quit?
No, that's not it.
Do what you want.
Whatever my position is,
it's my position as a mom.
But you're you.
I don't like you being a cop either.
It's best to live a quiet life in the shadows.
But if you want to do it, what can I say? It's your life.
I've raised you well enough to discern that much.
Do what you want.
You mean it?
Yes.
(Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency)
Don't be so rash.
Let's think about this together. We're hurting too.
Lieutenant Gong. Why are you doing this?
Is it because of Captain?
I'm trying to do anything that I can. So you
and Lieutenant Yoon should do what you can from here.
I'll be in touch if I need help.
Send this to my home. Thanks.
Gong.
See you around.
What do you think you're doing?
I'm sorry. I'll take responsibility for my decisions.
Are you going to Jung Woo?
You think you're pursuing justice, don't you?
You'll realize quickly that reality
It's because I know what the reality is.
My faith in the government has crumbled,
and being a police officer
is no longer something I'm proud of.
Thank you for everything.
What will you do?
(Letter of Resignation, Gong Hye Won)
I don't know.
I'm so sick of this rain.
The boat can't sail today either?
What can we do? The captain says no.
Let's wait for another day.
(Bed and Breakfast)
Who's that now?
It's nice to meet you. I've heard a lot about you.
It's nice to meet you.
Where's your son?
Please do what you can.
Yes, I will.
I heard what happened. I'll help you.
Give me your hand.
You can't take this off
from now on.
This is where everything begins.
You can do whatever you want now.
We meet again.
I slept well thanks to the injection.
What do you know?
(Dad, I'm at your lab. Can I see you for a minute?)
(White Night Biotech)
What are you doing here at this hour?
Dad.
What did you do in White Night Village?
What do you mean?
What you did 28 years ago.
Including what you may still be doing to this day.
If you need to come clean and be punished for what you did, do it.
You're still so young.
I didn't do anything that I need to be punished for.
I know you ran experiments on children.
Over 500 children were taken to White Night Village,
but there were only 36 on the Night of Tragedy.
Where did the 460-plus kids go?
How is that right?
I didn't do anything wrong.
Dad.
You're still young.
If you can't understand me, fine.
Dad, please.
How many times must I tell you?
You know nothing.
That's how it works. Successes and failures repeat
No. There's no such thing as "That's how it works."
Sacrifices are necessary for an experiment to succeed.
What about the people being sacrificed?
What about those children?
You can't achieve anything without making sacrifices.
Dad.
This is why Do Jung Woo put you on his team.
This is why he made sure you found out everything.
You have no idea what's actually important.
I'm not talking about Captain.
It's you, Dad. This isn't you.
Whatever it is that you saw, you're being fooled.
Get it together.
Sacrifices are necessary for an experiment to succeed.
I didn't do anything wrong.
You can't achieve anything without making sacrifices.
Dad.
Those children were test subjects?
Not just them. The experiment is still ongoing.
Like what they did in White Night Village?
Don't you remember the kids who had nosebleeds and fainted?
Those of us who survived have problems with our brains.
Innocent children are dying. We have to stop it.
I was following a car
that took children to experiment on that day.
I lost them thanks to you.
Do you know
where the secret lab is?
No.
I didn't know the experiment was still being conducted.
I only did as I was told.
How long do you think
you can cover your eyes and ears and ignore what's going on?
Someone must stop them.
Darn it. Don't sneak up on me.
Should I sing and shout that I'm selling drugs?
What?
What are you looking at?
I shouldn't have considered a bum like you to be a person.
I didn't kill you by accident.
I killed you because it was okay to kill you.
Die!
Are you all right?
Can you tell where you were in your dream?
Yes.
The roof of a building in Yeonshi-dong.
Dreams occur in places related to you.
Something happened there, didn't it?
No Nothing.
But
do I have to hang myself at the end?
It's scary.
It won't scare you after a while.
Lucid dreams stimulate the brain.
The brain won't respond unless it's extreme like that.
Oh Jung Hwan's house is impenetrable.
It won't be easy.
He's the Blue House Chief Secretary.
I'm sure security is top notched.
He even has soldiers here.
Isn't that strange even if he is a high-up there?
- You're right. - We need to find another way.
Okay.
What's this?
What is it?
There's no sender information.
Is it a tip-off?
What is this?
- What's up? - Where are you?
I'm working on a story. Why?
This is huge. Have you any idea what came here?
What came? Spit it out.
A new warning.
A warning?
Are you sure?
(Soonjung LP)
What? What's this?
Hello, everyone. I'm Lee Ji Wook with "Zoom In".
I am at a harbor right now to go to White Night Village.
Do you remember the forewarned murders?
After Son Min Ho, the last presumed victim,
the former leader of White Night Village,
we hadn't been able to report on it
due to the guidelines set by the police.
However, after one month, we've received another warning.
A new warning?
"When the red dog mounts the white dragon,"
"the proud coward"
"will become the 12th star of tarot."
Oh my gosh. Another warning of murder?
How many is that already?
Superintendent Do Jung Woo was accused of the crime,
and has yet to be apprehended.
- Was your captain - What does
- still not caught? - this new warning mean?
Who will be sacrificed this time, and in what manner?
We need swift action from the police.
(The proud coward will become the 12th star of tarot.)
(We'd like to thank Lee Kan Hee for her guest appearance.)
(Awaken)
Do Jung Woo was searching for the president and this lab.
Do Jung Woo.
That's not what I named him.
Do you know our captain well?
I think I know how to meet Oh Jung Hwan.
We must act quickly.
We plan to entrap Oh Jung Hwan by using his son.
Goodbye.
He's setting everything up for me.
I wanted to escape so badly, but I came back on my own.
Are you getting your memory back?
The third child
Long time no see.
