Episode 1
Lee Hyeongseok,
let's end this now.
I guess the time has come, right.
You're done enough.
The world knows by now.
- Why you did that. - I'm tired.
I want to rest now.
Let's do that.
I'm tired too.
Drop your weapons!
Thank you.
Why don't we have...
an actor like that?
[Celebrity First Pitch Actor, Kang Woo]
Kang Woo!
Here's Kang Woo! Please give him a welcome applause!
Have you anything to say?
I'll work much harder in my next movie.
Please continue to support me.
Let's start the game!
Fighting!
Kang Woo!
Hallyu Squad Sergeant Han Myung Wol...
the last round's qualifying test for Special Operations Unit... failure.
Han Myung Wol, for last three seconds...
you lost 500,000 lives.
I'll see you in three months.
I'll reapply for Special Ops again.
I heard you did well stopping South Korean pop culture.
Stick to what you do best.
You'll see me again.
I'll make it into the Special Ops Unit.
[Pyeongyang, North Korea]
Today, at a residence near Mansudae,
a South Korean TV drama will be viewed illegally.
You'll go undercover as a go-between.
Find their location and arrest all of them.
Will you wager your life on me?
But...
my life...
can you handle it?
If I can...
You'll surely get yourself involved in a dangerous game.
You got yourself involved in a dangerous game.
I'm about to die of a heart attack.
The writer feeds him all those lines.
With Kang Woo saying it makes me go crazy.
Even from a man's viewpoint, that punk's a bomb.
Watching too much of South Korean TV, you even talk like them now.
How? Don't I sound cool?
Next.
That girl's so lucky.
Don't move!
Let go!
We're not nobodies.
You should know better...
than to mess with us.
General Political Bureau Director Kim Daegyu,
you cost your father his job.
Let's eat.
First, let's just eat.
You'll let me go, right?
Answer me quickly!
- If not, I'll kill myself! - Hey!
I'll kill myself before you can do anything.
Please, let's just eat!
Did you find someone?
This time...
it's a top secret mission.
Comrade Han Myung Wol of the Hallyu Squad fits the bill perfectly.
She has no family or relatives, totally ideal for security purposes.
She's the absolute best,
but she also has a fatal flaw.
She doesn't think before she acts, that's her weakness.
Unni, do you see that? It's Kang Woo.
Just look...
The casino will be a cash cow.
How is it?
How's the feel?
It's well built.
Don't just answer like that. Take a good look around.
Granddad, can't I just go back to my room for a rest?
Eventually, you'll have to oversee all of this.
You'll live another 100 years, so why worry?
I didn't come here to follow you around.
Did you set up a meeting with the architect?
He'll be at the dinner meeting tonight.
Okay. You got to be there too.
Granddad, I've a prior engagement!
- You can't wander alone. - The show's about to start.
Kang Woo!
Why did you bring that crazy girl over here?
You don't need to know. Just focus on the mission.
Kang Woo!
Perfect!
Light 3 for stage 2 didn't come on.
That's because... the power supply is so erratic here.
Amp 1 balance?
That... was a momentary slipup.
The music for the duet came in half a beat fast,
was it your concept?
Making me look bad?
That, Mr. Kang Woo,
since we don't have experience with such a big setup, it...
Such a big venue.
Please forgive me.
The show was fine.
Everyone's in a good mood, don't be too harsh.
Here, let's go out and have a celebration tonight. It's on me.
Thank you.
Ms. Gyeong.
You seem relaxed now.
Yes.
Fine, it's my fault.
It won't happen again next time,
so lighten up and enjoy the night, Kang Woo.
I'm not in the mood.
Kang Woo!
Korean pop sensation Kang Woo is returning to Marina Bay Sands
after his first showcase.
Right now, traffic in the area is currently paralyzed.
However, tomorrow or the day after tomorrow,
when Kang Woo moves to the airport,
traffic will be controlled by police for his safety.
What are you doing?
Can't you look the other way?
You know I had to starve myself to get here.
I'll just get an autograph.
You can't.
I was ordered to prevent your exposure.
I won't be exposed.
I'll wear a hat and mask.
- No. - I'm going!
- You can't leave. - Since I can't be exposed,
so you can go then.
Don't tell me an elite agent like you can't even do that?
Sorry, ma'am. Only VIPs are allowed inside.
I'm a reporter from Orion News and I'm here to interview Mr. Kang Woo.
We were not informed of this.
But there was a sudden change of schedule.
You know it was rescheduled like an hour ago.
He's right there, we can go ask him if you want...
He... it's going to be real... really...
Sorry.
Okay, fine.
You can go then.
Don't tell me an elite agent like you can't even do that?
- I'm just want to ask him a question! - So sorry.
I'll be crazy for just ten minutes.
Autograph.
Sorry.
Autograph, please.
Autograph.
No autograph.
Autograph, please.
I don't give out autographs on the street.
No exceptions.
So long.
Geez, you just don't seem to have got it.
It's not me who didn't get it, it's you.
Autograph.
Hurry up.
How long does it take just writing your name?
Thank you.
You bourgeois pig.
Arrogant bourgeois pig.
Mission duration revised to 30 minutes.
Why hasn't he called me yet?
What!
You haven't told him I'm here?
So where is he?
This area isn't for parking.
Everyone will be wearing a mask, so the risk of exposure is low.
Still, don't let your guard down.
Yes, I'll keep that in mind.
I'll see you at the mission location tomorrow.
My bag!
Someone, help!
Thank you.
Are you a Korean by any chance?
Whoa, thank you.
Don't you know who I am?
I'm not too sure...
You must be overseas a long time.
So long.
Hey!
What's with him?
What's he doing? He's so childish.
I hate people stalking on me.
I understand you're my fan and you're crazy about me,
but if you follow me again you'll never come to my concert again.
Okay?
Give me your autograph.
I'll never be at your concert.
So you're Korean?
If no autograph in five minutes, I'll get it by force.
- By force? - You asked for it, don't blame me.
- Who are you? - Your fan, of course.
A crazy diehard fan.
Don't make me call the police, stop it.
- I don't like stalkers. - Five, four...
- You're right-handed, correct? - What?
Why ask me that?
If you're my fan...
I don't want to mangle the hand you sign with.
- You're nuts. - Three, two, one.
Give me pen and paper.
Hurry up, I'll give you my autograph.
We wouldn't have wasted time if you had given it to me.
- Today's... - Hey, your shoelace's untied.
Never mind, don't.
You're such a diehard fan who is willing beat me up for my autograph.
I should at least give you some fanservice.
But, what is it about me that you like so much?
My handsome face?
My voice? My manner?
Never mind.
I'm sure you like everything.
Why else would you be so crazy about me?
What are you doing? Untie it this instant.
That'll keep you busy.
Consider this as a piece of my heart.
What are...
Isn't it better than an autograph?
Remember this kiss for the rest of your life and stop following me.
I've something very important to do,
but if you get in the way,
I won't let it slide even if you're a diehard fan, okay?
Hey! Stop! Stop right there!
Stop there!
It's a rare thing.
Where's Mr. Park?
He went to a hospital near the airport due to indigestion.
Really?
Then, I guess we'll have to talk later.
If you don't decide now, I'll pass it on to another customer.
Isn't there another reason he's rushing you?
Aren't you Korean?
Finding the right owner, it'll be treated like the real thing,
but a fake's a fake.
Hey!
Later,
get Professor Park to appraise it.
Whether that buddy's right or not.
Yes.
Can't you look happy?
We even had a chance meeting in Singapore.
If you've time for this, shouldn't you work on your acting?
I've come to unwind.
I heard you went to Orchard Road today.
Geukbong, that jerk...
digging his own grave.
What are you doing tonight?
What? That bourgeois pig.
Are you sure the package has arrived?
Only I know about this, right?
Why is there so much traffic?
What's up?
Valet park?
May I have your attention?
Now it's time to move, so let's all go to the other room.
So this was your kind of thing?
So you resort to stalking me now?
Tell me if you need anything, I'll buy it for you.
What's that?
The first item is an ancient bronze jar once owned by Woo Hee.
According to legend,
Woo Hee slept with that jar next to her bed during her experience with her first lover.
Even after her death, the umi plant is right by her grave.
I thought we'd at least see a water drop diamond or two.
- 55,000. - 55,000.
How disappointing.
- Do I hear 60,000? - Shall I buy it?
You know I don't care what you do.
70,000 going once, going twice...
It's yours.
The second item is an ancient book from Asia.
The text is written in
- an indecipherable language. - Let's go.
- And the writer is unknown. - To a real dance party.
And the source is unknown.
Archaeologist think it is from Korea, Russia, or China.
It has four books.
Three of them disappeared, and this is the remaining one.
Let's start the bid with one million dollars.
One million dollars.
I have one million dollars.
1.5 million.
There's a 1.5.
- Anyone else? - Come in, dove.
Dove, come in.
Magpie has flown off. Come in, dove.
Ma'am.
You're going to have to hold up your card and state the price.
18!
Oh! You're Korean! You misunderstood.
You must be nervous because this is a very special item.
Okay.
1.8 million.
Going once...
Going twice...
2 million.
Dove, confirm location. Confirm location.
Is it true that magpie has flown off?
Then, you don't know where magpie is either?
My clothes were stolen. Where is this woman?
Bourgeois pig? That's all I wanted.
Why would you waste money on that dusty old thing?
Our relationship doesn't warrant that kind of meddling.
Then what does our relationship warrant?
What? You couldn't get it?
Are you really an elite agent?
That bourgeois pig's really the death of me!
- Where's the guest of this room? - She has gone already.
[158 Special Operations Unit. Reconnaissance Bureau]
Was it out audacity or arrogance, you refused the order to return?
I'll accept whatever disciplinary action metered.
Until you're ordered to resume your duties, go on leave.
No.
I'd rather receive disciplinary action.
Not an official mission anyway, so no discipline.
But, so long as I'm part of the Special Ops Unit,
you're not eligible for transfer here.
Major.
My daddy's kisses are my favorite.
I'll become a Special Ops agent just like you when I grow up.
What? You still have something left to say?
I can't give up like this.
Major, please give me another chance.
Don't you know better than anyone else how important this is to me?
You know better than anyone else.
The Special Ops Unit allows no mistakes whatsoever.
One chance is all we provide.
The order has already been issued.
Major, please...
Major...
I'll right whatever wrong that I had caused.
[Incheon Port]
Let me hear you.
Good job.
Completely like a machine.
How can he dance nonstop for 8 hours.
He's not human.
["Assassin" Mid-Production Open House]
[Assassin]
What to do?
My ticket's missing!
- I showed them to you, right? - Yeah.
I showed it to you when we sat over there.
Hey, don't panic, look for it quickly.
Hey, but where has Mihyeon gone?
I didn't know then.
How that woman...
would change my life.
If I had known,
could I have avoided her?
We'd like to thank all you for coming to the "Assassin" TV drama mid-production open house.
Let me begin the introduction of the stars for this KBS special drama series, "Assassin".
Assassin X is played by Mr. Kang Woo.
Up next is the mysterious woman, J, who touches X's soul,
Ms. Ju Ina.
And the one who knows J's business secrets.
J's friend, played by Ms. Jo Jeongeun.
Let's now head to the set which is being revealed for the first time.
What was that?
Cut!
What? Mr. Kang, is there a problem?
Everything seemed fine. What is it?
Why? What?
Why do X and J have to run through camera flashes?
Please explain.
Well...
You know how this works.
Come on, Mr. Kang.
What's it?
What's wrong?
Ms. Gyeong,
I didn't know you were this money-hungry.
Don't you know they're clamoring for press releases?
You took too much time signing the deal, leaving no time for any promotions.
- Kang Woo, for today... - Shall we call of the shoot for today?
Please refrain from taking anymore photos from now on.
If you don't cooperate, we'll be forced to vacate everyone from the set.
Are you ready? Action!
Cut!
Ms. Ina, are you okay?
I can't get into character.
Be back in ten minutes.
Go on, take a ten minute break!
Let's take ten minutes!
How about a break, huh?
Let your beloved Kang Woo take a real rest for once.
Only a few minutes, go to the restroom.
That's good.
Mr. Kang Woo.
Hyung, are you okay?
Hyung!
Shouldn't you go to the hospital to be safe?
Get something to calm your nerves.
Yes, have you found the girl?
How to find someone who disappeared?
Go on.
Hey, can't you drive right?
Darn it!
I think it's a person.
[Lightning-Speed Private Detective]
We're on the set of the new TV series "Assassin".
Hey, hey! Mind the stew!
There has been an unexplained explosion.
An unknown high school student saved Kang Woo
- and then vanished into thin air. - The stew's ruined.
Why did she take off?
You know, the girl who saved Kang Woo.
What does an anonymous student have to do with our stew?
Not anyone's life, if it's saving Asia's hallyu star Kang Woo,
she could get a reward and turn her life around.
Don't be bothered by someone else's life,
worry about turning yours.
Boss, nothing seems to pique your interest.
Given what you do, shouldn't you develop some professional curiosity?
Who could she be?
Why did she disappear?
If we find her,
would Kang Woo give us a hefty reward? Yes?
It's a publicity stunt to make people watch the drama.
You're so gullible.
[Operating Room]
[Surgery in progress]
Are you nuts?
Kang Woo, please.
I'll give you real-time updates, so you just stay there.
Okay?
What is it? Is there a problem?
Yes. The descending aorta ruptured, her vitals are unstable.
- Get ready the defibrillator. Hurry! - Okay!
200 joules!
- 300 joules! - Yes.
- 350 joules. - Yes.
- 350 joules once more. - Yes.
My daddy's kisses...
My daddy's kisses are my favorite.
Please give me another chance.
Don't you know better than anyone else how important this is to me?
Okay, let's do it again.
We're on the set of new TV drama "Assassin".
Hey, turn that off.
I just don't get it, no matter how much I think.
Daegang.
I forgot.
You never fail to forget.
You never fail to listen to this show.
Who listens to late-night radio these days?
- Goodnight. - You too.
According to Hallyu Reconnaissance Bureau,
the anonymous high school student
who saved Kang Woo on the drama set
is thought to be Comrade Han Myung Wol.
Here's her profile.
She was born in 1987 in Pyeongyang.
Both parents died, and she grew up at the Moranbong Orphanage in Pyeongyang.
She enlisted upon graduating high school.
She used to work in a patrol squad,
she was transferred to the Hallyu Squad when it began operations.
She's currently an Hallyu Squad agent.
She's on temporary leave.
Whether the girl in the photo's Han Myung Wol or not,
we must quickly determine that fact as soon as possible.
This was posted on our online forum
from Sindang-dong, Jejudo.
A grandson's desperately looking for his grandmother,
who's still suffering from senile dementia.
She went for a walk, but didn't come back.
Grandson Bokman's waiting, come home quickly.
Bokman must be too worried and could have sent the wrong address.
We know there's no Sindang-dong in Jejudo.
Crazy, I'm going to go crazy.
Things had been quiet since the '88 Olympics, why suddenly this now?
Myeong.
Wol.
Han Myung Wol.
Han Myung Wol?
Hey! Are you awake?
Hey!
Nurse!
Over there!
Where are you?
A swarm of reporters are here. - What?
What should we do, Ms. Gyeong?
The press must have been tipped off.
Which floor?
Hold on. No pictures, please. No pictures.
We'll talk to you in a bit.
- Where is he? - That's strange.
- Not here. - Where's Kang Woo?
- I thought I saw him. - Are you sure?
- What happened? - Please get out.
- We'll be quick, so wait a while. - Please leave.
Not here.
- Not around. - Are you sure?
Did you see him?
I'm not sure, but I thought I saw him.
But who's the patient?
- A trainee collapsed from exhaustion. - A trainee?
You must have a lot of time on your hands.
So frustrating.
- Please leave. - Is he somewhere else?
- I don't know, - Let's look somewhere else.

Student, you might have thought I'd do anything if you saved me.
Wake up from your dream.
What do girls see in him?
Comrade Han Myung Wol?
Mount Myohyang No. 7.
If you don't give me an acceptable reason,
your only fate's death.
I'll eliminate Kang Woo.
Graduate from my swimming lessons.
Huh?
What's he saying?
Infiltrated the drama set to take pictures of Kang Woo.
Eliminate me?
You need to undertake something major.
I can't just sit back.
You must win Kang Woo over in three months, marry him,
and make him defect to North Korea.
