Hold her.
Yes sir!
Let go of me! Let go! Let go!
Not only have you chosen the wrong way to live,
you've also chosen the wrong way to get back at the world.
Do you think they'll be able to protect you?
Do you think that Chosun cares about a poor, useless boy like you?
What's the point of protecting a country that does nothing for you?
Why would you spill blood to protect it?
It'll be your blood gone to waste.
Listen carefully,
Starting right now, forget about social rank.
Exclude all ideology about pro-Japanese and anti-Japanese!
It's just man on man.
Understood?!
Stop!
Jerk, do you know what type of people I hate more than bugs?
Jerks like you that are born into a good family and have no limits because of social status.
People that only speak of good things!
Stop! Please just stop!
You guys sold out the country.
Why do you get to live with privileges when we take the beating?
Why?! Why?!
WHY?!
Orabuhni* (*Old way to say oppa, older brother)
Orabuhni...
Please stop.
He'll die.
Don't be like this.
Does this make things better?
Does it relieve your grudge against the world?
You know that's not it.
Just because you vent on In Ho and Wan,
doesn't mean your scars can be healed.
Please stop.
How far and how long are you going to keep changing?
You weren't like this.
You were smart, kind and thoughtful.
Why have you changed so much?
Shut up.
Don't ever let me see you around.
I'll stop here today, but next time, you'll die.
Are you okay?
Can you tell who I am? Open your eyes!
Now we're even...
Man on man.
Next time we meet, I won't forgive you.
Try to focus.
Look at me.
You weren't like this.
You were smart, kind and thoughtful.
Why have you changed so much?

Episode 15
Why haven't we heard from him yet? It's so late, it makes me worry.
He left in a rage. Everything should be okay, right?
He ran out hearing Jo Ma Ja was taken.
There shouldn't be anything wrong.
His opponent is Kang Gu.
Everything will be fine.
Everything will be fine, of course.
But still, something...
I told you everything will be fine!
What I'm trying to...
I said everything will be fine!
I'm just...
Nothing will happen!
In Ho won't eat his dinner, unni.
Young Ran, call the police.
The police?
The police, why?
To report Yeo Kyung's kidnapping and Wan's disappearance.
If you say you saw Kang Gu taking her himself, it'll go through.
Call and ask for Lee Su Hyun.
Since he knows both of them, he'll help.
Okay, I'll look into it right now.
Where are you going?
There's been a kidnapping report, so I'm going to look into it.
Weren't you a part of the Special Cases Branch?
Since when do you have so much free time?
Lee Kang Gu has illegally taken Na Yeo Kyung as a suspect.
It's not completely unrelated to our branch.
Na Yeo Kyung, the suspect?
Don't you think he went to interrogate her?
It's illegal to take a civilian to a place other than the police station.
It could leave a flaw in the Japanese police reputation.
Why do both you and Kang Gu persistently cling to Na Yeo Kyung?
Kang Gu, may be.
But why is it I get the feeling that you are overly protective of her?
It's a personal feeling.
As a man, is that not allowed?
Intuition and personal feelings,
Chosun people always consider their feelings first.
It's entertaining to watch you two fight, tear at and separate from each other.
Are they the racial characteristics of Chosun people?
Some sell out their country
and some kill those people that do,
and some sell out their partners and betray them.
It's a cycle of suffering, no?
How worthless must they have been to sell out their country?
If they asked for Japan's help, they should be loyal to the end.
Now that we helped them they come to bite the hand that fed them?
Good for nothing Chosun people.
Isn't paradoxical that you, who hate Chosun people so much, work with them?
Are you talking about Lee Kang Gu?
He's just a hound dog.
You know what that means, right?
A dog that brings back the game, that listens well and shakes his tail.
He's nothing more, nothing less.
If he becomes useless, I throw him out and get a new hound dog.
Is there a problem?
I'll tell you think again,
but the person we have to arrest is Ae Mool Dan's boss.
We don't have time to waste on such a petty case.
What you had said about publicly killing the boss,
it wont be easy.
Even if you catch him, and publicly kill him,
Ae Mool Dan will not sway or lose power.
It will only create anger and will.
A racial characteristic of Chosun people is that the harder you stomp on the them, the straighter they will stand.
What?
I'm only telling you this because it seems you don't know them very well.
How can you hold a thorough investigation if you don't know the people?
Well then, I'll be on my way.
Don't you think that was too dangerous of a thing to say?
Everything was true,
But, you should be careful.
Just listening caused my heart to skip a beat.
Everything was true.
You must be a Chosun person too,
although I don't want to admit it.
No matter how badly I act,
I don't think I could do as badly as you, betraying and selling out the country.
It seemed you knew too much about me,
so I did some research about you too.
Did I say something wrong?
Where's Yeo Kyung?
Is it possible that I'm judging a book by its cover?
Everyone is different on the outside,
You included.
What are you talking about?
I'll soon let you know an inner self you never knew about.
So, tell me where Yeo Kyung is.
When I ask you in an understandable way with human language.
Wake up.
If you fall asleep here, you'll die.
Wake up, okay?
Try to move a little, we have to go to the hospital.
Lean on me and we'll...
Are you okay?
Can you tell who I am?
Don't you know who I am?
You are...
Jo Ma Ja.
You said you wouldn't undo your otguhreum* until our country is free,
(*the tie that keeps the upper part of hanbok together)
but it's undone right now.
I'll undo it, as much as you want.
Just stay alive.
Don't die.
Su Hyun!
Wan!
Are you okay?
Wan!
Can you tell who I am?
Jerk,
why did you come so late?
I almost died.
Help me move him.
Drop her off at home.
Go home first.
I don't want to.
This is embarrassing.
Go home.
No matter what you say...
I can't say it hurts because of you!
Are you okay?
Damn it.
No matter what, you have to save me.
I can't die and leave her alone.
I promised.
Don't worry, you won't die seeing you're still talking.
Jerk.
He said that the county's like this because of people like me.
People that were born into their high rank and don't do anything.
I can't die until I can show I'm different.
You have to keep me alive.
Don't worry.
I won't die suddenly like my brother.
I won't let you die either.
Let's not die and live for a long time.
Until we see this country free.
Put down the gun.
Please get out of the way.
This isn't you.
You were always calm and careful.
I'm just trying to get rid of someone getting in the way of freedom.
I'm just trying to get rid of the people who are blocking our native land to get freed.
I'm trying to protect people I care for by acting.
Put down the gun.
I want to free this country as soon as possible.
So that no one is in danger and can live the life they want.
Na Yeo Kyung.
If the want to study, they can,
If they want to smile, they can,
if they want to love, they can.
I want to make a country like that as soon as possible.
This country's freedom does not happen so quickly.
That's why I'm starting now!
Do you want our last event to be murder out of anger?!
It's not our generation but for the next.
We have to live in this danger.
Don't be selfish.
Try to find a way to be happy in times like this.
That is true sound judgment.
Is that so?
That... is that revolution?
That means I have to find a way to be happy in danger.
I'll think of a way to deal with Kang Gu.
So calm down.
This is an order.
You never listen.
I told you not to come.
Are you only going to show me your back?
I don't show my face to anyone.
I understand.
Well then, it was nice seeing your back.
Wait!
Are you okay?
How can you leave like that?
I have something to say.
If you had something to say, why play hard to get?
If I do, just play along.
What do you have to say?
What?
Didn't you say you needed to say something?
Well...
It's not much...
Earlier...
I was thinking as I was between life and death.
There was something I needed to say to you before I died.
Don't say you'll die!
You scared me!
How can you yell at a patient?
Anyway, tell me what you need to say.
Uh?
Well,
it's after this country is free.
After that,
it's about the blanket.
There doesn't seem a need to have many,
just one, you and I can...
Are you trying to kill a patient?
Try to find a way to be happy in times like this.
That is true sound judgment.
Is In Ho the same?
It looks like something happened when Kang Gu took him,
but he won't say anything.
It's not good to push him too far.
We should leave him out of Ae Mool Dan, right?
I know this sounds wrong, but is it okay to leave him here?
He has nowhere to go.
Let's leave him here for now.
It could be dangerous,
you don't know what Kang Gu will pressure him to do.
Don't worry,
he'll soon be our lucky boy again.
How is he?
All he does is stay in his room not talking nor eating.
It seems he's going to waste away in there.
In Ho!
Kang In Ho!
I'm going in.
Eat,
you have to eat to live.
I won't ask what happened,
but just eat and rest.
And, in the mean time,
I mean from now on,
you don't have to work.
It's not because we don't trust you,
but because it'll only make things harder for you if you know more.
You understand, right?
And these,
I don't know if I bought the right ones.
But I bought a few because you like to study.
Hey, since you're smart, study hard and find another life.
I had a hard time because I didn't learn enough.
You did well.
Live comfortable from now on.
You deserve it.
Teacher Na, you came.
In Ho's in his room right now?
I don't think you should see him today.
I think it hurts him to see us.
I don't care if you're a member or not,
Your job is to get information and it doesn't matter how.
Don't forget, information on Su Hyun.
It's your sister that you miss so much.
If you want, I can send both of you to hell right now.
The 4th victim was found two days ago hanged.
Upon investigation, we found it was murder, not suicide.
The 5th victim was a Japanese businessman,
and was dropped off dead here yesterday night.
The body was three hours old and murdered as well.
This morning, this is the notice we found here.
There's going to be another murder.
The proposed victim?
It wasn't written.
What?
That's not fair, they had told us before.
I bet you they wrote it somewhere, look again. Like a p.s. or nota bene.
It wasn't written anywhere.
What?
So, how are we supposed to investigate now?
This will not do, this is cheating! They can't do this.
Taking into account of other political activists groups,
the proposed victims may be in the army or police force.
Hmm... if that's so...
That's us...
More Japanese?
That means it can include me.
What have you been doing until now?!
How can nothing come up after five murders?!
If they are planning to attack us,
they've put their lives on the line.
If we use this to our advantage,
we could catch all of them.
Yes! Yes!
You can do that, right?
First, we need permission to information from the investigation bureau.
Of course! Okay! Everything is good!
We have to stop this.
I still have a while to live.
Sachiko, what's wrong?
What happened?
I'm scared, Mamoro.
Why?
What happened?
Seven.
Seven?
Seven? Chil Pil Sal*? (*seven deathblow)
Miyuki's leaving in seven days. Only seven days...
But...
Instead, my father is coming here!
Your father?
Why?
What do mean why?
For my autobiography release party, of course!
Soon volume one of my autobiography series will be released.
Autobiography se... se... series?
Are you talking about how you came from an egg...
I'm going to have a large scale book release and Miyuki's leaving party.
Sachiko, again? Even after last time...
Coward man.
Have you forgotten our family's principle?
Infinite Challenge.
Of course, I know. But, so many family...
Childish man.
Don't worry.
I won't ask you to pass out the invitations.
This time my father will invite the head of the police force and other important people.
We'll also have swing dancing.
Sachiko, it's illegal to dance here.
Narrow-minded man.
My father said he'll take care of it.
No! Are you seriously thinking about dancing at times like this?!
Did you just yell at me?
My dad is coming.
Do you want to be taken out of the Ueda family?
What I'm trying to say is,
that if you're going to dance, let's do it together.
My father is expecting a lot,
if you want a promotion, you should practice dancing.
Do I have to live like this?
How can you leave so soon?
I'll be back when school is out again.
Yes, please do come.
Next time, I'll make sure to take care of you.
It doesn't seem like you're meeting Wan these days.
After our trip to Tokyo together, he hasn't gotten back to me.
He must be busy.
Well,
the truth is Wan is in the hospital.
In the hospital?!
Yes?
Miyuki.
What are you doing here?
I came to see you.
Am I too late?
Are you all better?
Yes, thanks to you.
From your mother, I heard bad guys got to you.
You should have been careful.
That's what you heard from her?
Is it not the truth?
Seeing your clear eyes, I can't lie anymore.
Fine, I'll be truthful.
The brother of a girl I was dating beat me up.
What?!
Surprising, isn't it?
You must be surprised.
Yes...
That's the type of person I am.
My love is so passionate at first,
but I can't end it well.
I never officially broke with her and was avoiding it.
It always happens this way.
This is the third time.
You're disappointed, right?
Forget such a terrible guy like me.
It hurts,
but I'll forget too.
Then...
I want to study with you.
What?
I haven't known you for long,
but I like you.
If it's okay with you, I want to help you come study in Japan.
Thank you but...
My parents think Japanese supremacy is a given,
but I think a bit differently.
I think it's wrong to take from Chosun and persecute.
Miyuki, what I'm..
However, Chosun is still weak.
People like you are important.
What I'm trying to say is...
There's going to be a party for the book release and my leaving.
Let's talk more then.
I'll trust you to be there.
Well then.
She's definitely Sachiko's daughter.
What did you just say?
I said to make sure the book is published in time for the party.
No, before that.
That there's going to be dancing.
No, before.
What?!
Oh! That.
Jirashi will close down next month.
What?!
There will be orders from the police soon.
Well, for all your troubles,
I'll invite you to the party.
Well then.
WAIT!
What are you doing?!
Let go!
Part two, we'll publish volume two for you.
For free!
Yes, yes! I know someone that can write a book in two days.
On top of that, we'll bring Capital's Dancing King to your party!
Who's that?
Well, it's..
Him!
Are you a good dancer?
No.
Not really.
He's great!
Fine.
Then, I'll look forward to it.
What?! Am I some kind of puppet?!
I was trying to clean up my relationships.
How can things get more complicated?
What kind of friends are they?
Oh really!
What are you doing here?
Your father called.
You too?
You called us for dinner? That's it?
Am I not allowed?
That's not it.
It's not anyone's birthday, why is there so much food?
I always wanted to feed Su Hyun a meal.
He hasn't been able to contact his family,
and eating alone must be lonesome.
I've always wanted to eat with both of you.
Do you have a problem with that?
I know you're busy,
but we don't know when we'll ever be able to eat together.
Do you have a problem with that?
What do mean we don't know?
Call whenever you want,
I'll bring Su Hyun with me.
How can I call busy people whenever?
Remember what I told you?
Exploit what you can.
I didn't think you'd ask first.
Take it.
What kind of boss are you?
It's not a bribe or anything, it's for the group.
Thank you, sir.
I'll use it well for the country.
I heard another murder notice arrived at the police.
There's a lot of silent supporters out there.
Don't sway in whatever you do and fight till the end.
After this, it would be really nice if we could eat together again.
Yeo Kyung?
Hello.
You're here to see In Ho again?
He won't meet with me.
Unni!
Yeo Kyung unni is here too! Look at this!
What is it?
It's a letter from In Ho's sister.
He'll be so happy.
He may even smile, right?!
You may be able to see him today.
In Ho,
it's me.
Can I see your face today?
I don't know what happened,
but don't take it too hard.
Don't let it break you so easily.
Don't give up on yourself.
Okay?
Well, I'll be going.
Oh yes, there's a letter from your sister.
I'll leave it here, read it.
Oppa, how are you!
A couple days ago, some guy came to see me, saying that he knew you very well.
Some guy came found me.
He told me how you were and your address.
How does he know you?
How did he know how to find me?
You know there's a meeting tomorrow.
Of course.
We only have one more big event left.
We'll succeed... right?
I have a favor to ask.
What is it?
Can I call you Unni from now on?
I was waiting for you to ask.
So from now on, I can call you that?
Of course, you can.
Thank you, Song Joo...
Take it slowly.
Alright then. Good night.
Take care.
I'll eat it myself.
When you eat, just focus on your food.
You owe that to the farmers.
I'm sorry.
I was thinking about other things.
If you try to do too much, things don't work out as easily.
Try to relax.
Okay.
It's going well, right?
Like I had said before, I don't want to get in the way of what you do.
Just do what your heart tells you.
I'll do my best.
Eat before it gets cold and cheer up.
Okay.
Finished with our 5th victim.
We have one more to go.
The last victim will be...
All of the police and army force.
Wait, if that's the last victim...
How many is that?
Wait, then that's not seven.
The 6th, the boss will take care of himself.
All by himself?
I don't know the details,
but I do know that it's already in action.
There's not much time left until the final event.
It'll be the last where we all will be risking our lives.
For our protection, the location and time will be revealed right before.
Other members will be there.
There are others?
Aren't you underestimating Ae Mool Dan a little too much?
The people here are...
the Capital branch?
When you meet the others, you'll be surprised at our enormity and at their identities.
Identities?
Workers, Courtesans, students and corporate heads.
There's a lot of different people.
Well, that's it for the Capital branch meeting.
Let's go an celebrate.
Why are we here again. I don't like it.
The boss must have run into some money.
He rented out the whole VIP room.
Let's take a picture to remember this.
We're not here on a picnic.
Why not? Other activists dressed up and took a picture right before a big event.
Yes, I think it's a good idea too.
What do you think, Yeo Kyung?
I agree.
I also think we should leave a little memo too.
That's a great idea!
Let's drink to that.
What?
It feels like I'm ruining everything.
Let me introduce you to the secret member of Ae Mool Dan.
He was a member too!
How did you hide yourself so well?
I hope you'll keep this a secret.
Of course.
It must be dangerous to work in the police force.
What is the boss doing while you do something so dangerous?
That's right.
The boss leaves all the hard work to us and doesn't reveal himself to us either.
As if he's all that!
I'm sorry.
I have a customer tonight,
so I'll have to leave.
Continue having fun.
I feel bad for Song Joo.
Having to sell alcohol and her smile, entertaining men.
I just think of her as a lovely person and at times like this, I realize she's a Courtesan.
It's gross to think she has to be in the arms of some old and wrinkly man.
Are you planning to become a monk?
Or is there another reason why you wont go to her?
Are you worried it will ruin your reputation?
That you put a woman before your country?
Or because physical attraction is dangerous?
Or, because she's a Courtesan?
Try to find happiness in dangerous times.
that is true sound judgment.
I hate seeing you in other men's' arms.
I hate seeing you selling yourself to other men.
What's wrong, Song Joo? Are you worried about something?
Of course not.
- One moment. - Okay.
When will you stop?
Where were you last night?
Did something happen last night?
Does something have to happen for you to move?
I need to be able to contact you!
Where were you all night?
I was on undercover duty.
Duty?
There was something I needed to figure out.
Are you giving me notice that you'll move alone from now on?
Since you two leave me out, I need to complete something on my own.
And so? Your results?
I'll let you know after tonight when I'm sure.
That's a �I just started my first love' smile.
Something happened between you and Su Hyun last night, right?
Wha... wha... what are you talking about?
Even Song Joo stutters!
Is it funny?
If it's funny, then fine.
What are you so embarrassed about?!
You're no longer a girl!
Tell me, how far did you go?
Close your mouth before I put a gun hole in your head.
What are you doing?
Hey, shooter.
Don't get hurt and do well.
Make it out alive and live a loving life with him.
I've never imagined a life without you, you know that, right?
We were a pretty good match, right?
Please don't touch.
I have someone.
So, what?
You saw Lee Su Hyun leave Song Joo's room this morning.
That means they spent the night together.
You know some of the members, right?
Write what you know.
[Cha Song Joo]
Hello! Lucky Boy.
[Cho Keun Duk]
[Nam Gi]
You have a meeting spot, right?
Where is it?
Did you sleep well?
I'm sorry I'm late, boss...
There seems to be a problem with parking.
Soon, there will be a bank party.
There will be police force and army heads there.
That will be the location of our last event.
On the cover it's fundraising for jobs,
but in fact, it's funding for war.
If there are murders there, it will have a lot of meaning.
Yes, there will be four primary shooters.
We also need four secondary shooters.
Deploy them after they are fully aware of their mission.
Yes, sir.
The weapons...
We've moved them already.
Cha Song Joo, Cho Keun Duk!
We know you're in there,
Come out quietly!
What are you doing?! You want to die?
We have no idea what weapons they have.
We have to take them alive! Understand?
Yes.
There's nothing we can do,
they have all the escape routes blocked.
We've been betrayed for sure.
They know everything about this place!
What are you doing now?
Our disguise's have been figured out.
His can't be figured out, not yet.
At least one has to live.
- Song Joo. - I'm sorry...
but from now,
I'm the boss.
This is the only way.
If you want to die, you will do it at the last event in front of all the members.
You understand, right?
Everyone put down your guns!
If you don't, I can't guarantee the life of the hostage.
Let go of the hostage first and then come quietly!
- What are you doing?! - Boss.
Lee Su Hyun,
in the name of Ae Mool Dan, I'll finish you off!
Wait!
Lee Su Hyun!
Wait for a moment.
What?!
It'll only take a second.
I could have taken care of you with more grandeur earlier.
You were supposed to be the last victim.
Last night was fun.
I didn't think you would have been so easy.
Well then.
Goodbye.
I'm sorry,
for making you go on alone again.
Please, live.
Live.
Live and be happy.
