(Episode 03)
Once a memory fades, it becomes a happy memory.
You only remember happy and beautiful moments...
and forget the rest.
However...
(Thief and murderer wanted, 3,000-dollar reward)
If you lay your hands on something you are not supposed to,
forgotten memories are brought back as a nightmare,
and words you've said come back and stab you as a sword.
Are you...
Choi Soon Seok?
Choi Soon Seok.
I've erased the name.
It is the memory you are not supposed to touch.
Choi Soon Seok.
You are him, aren't you?
Why is that name coming out from your lips? Why?
Who?
Choi Soon Seok.
You came here on the day when he was lost.
And he has a scar from a burn.
This is delicious.
I've never heard of the name.
Never mind, then. Why do you look so upset?
Who knows? I might find your parents for you.
They are dead.
So don't try anything crazy.
Is that so?
That's weird.
You don't even remember your name, but you remember that they are dead.
Don't you think?
Kim Gil Do. He is the only man who knows my name.
The only evidence that he can recognise me with.
I have to get rid of it. It shouldn't get into his hands.
Gosh.
Is she flirting with the ball or what? Just hit it already!
Keep quiet.
- Nice shot! - Wow.
Did you hit it with a ruler or what?
How is it so accurate?
You are so good that...
you will put other ladies down.
My flirting did work.
- You should go. - Sorry?
You are distracting me.
You can't be here with your wicked mind.
Ma'am, I think you are mistaken.
Aren't you listening to me?
Get out of my sight.
Yes, it's me.
Is he alive?
Okay.
What should I do?
(Operating Room)
What am I going to do?
Where is he?
I called him, so he'll be on his way.
I'm sorry.
The land doesn't have legs.
It can't run away.
Only papers...
with seals are the ones that run away.
One day,
they might just come back to you.
Let's just...
consider it in positive ways.
It's done.
Where are the grapes?
- They are there. - Okay.
Mr Hwang is very generous. He bought some grapes for him.
I heard Mr Seo likes grapes.
What's the matter? Calm down.
Nurse!
Calm down!
What should I do?
I can't believe this.
Mr Park has been waiting for you.
- Look who's here. - Take a seat.
I know that you are not that glad to see me.
I think you know.
I'm dying over here.
You must really adore Mr Ha.
(Deed of Transfer)
At last.
You finally did it.
That's a weight off my shoulders.
The golf course is no longer a problem.
Now we just have to lay out...
a red carpet to Gangnam.
You bet we'll do that.
I'll increase the value 10 times and wire it back to you.
You can...
discuss the details with Mr Hwang here.
I should go.
How is your father-in-law?
It was a hit-and-run.
So was Mr Seo's accident.
Tell me if you need anything.
We should help each other out.
Bite off more than you can swallow,
and you will explode.
You're only a mid-level prosecutor, not the prosecutor general.
Let's not overdo it.
Mr Ha.
How is he?
Go inside and ask.
You can leave.
I can't do that.
He's like a father to me.
I want to stay until he comes out...
Go home.
Your father-in-law's in surgery,
but you took your time.
Your father's in surgery,
but you had time to change and fix your makeup...
at the golf course.
Are you Mr Ko Dae Cheon's family?
Yes.
Why did he...
go driving at night when he can barely see?
The dialect?
I need to practice. We're moving to Gangnam soon.
Gangnam women have a stiff upper lip.
I don't want to stand out.
Shouldn't you at least try to look sad?
This is why early education is important.
He sold noodles the day my mother died.
When I screamed at him for it,
he said he did it so she could live forever in the afterlife.
Should I go on?
You are really...
Don't smile.
You shouldn't smile.
I'm the neighbourhood witch,
but you are the noble food expert.
What if someone sees you smile...
when your father-in-law is in a coma?
Don't you think?
What do you mean?
Think about it.
You're smart.
You got your way.
No one is left to oppose...
Goongnakwon's move to Gangnam.
I apologise.
It wasn't a clean job.
I really hate phrases like...
"I'm sorry."
"I apologise. It won't happen again."
If you mess up, you get punished.
Empty words mean nothing.
I will accept any punishment.
What about your lunch appointment?
I have an excuse.
I don't have to see them again.
Cancel my appointments with them and sell all the memberships.
Yes, Ma'am.
Where shall I take you?
Drive around.
Let's get some fresh air.
Yes, Ma'am.
You will have stepped on the brakes that time, too.
You thought that would be enough.
Or maybe you felt guilty.
Either way, you made a call...
without my permission.
Do as you're told.
Bark when I tell you to, and bite when I tell you to.
I give the order, you follow it.
Is that hard?
No, Sir.
Drive into him...
at full speed.
Once more.
Again.
Once more and he'll die.
And you will get arrested.
There is no way out.
There's a witness now.
Reverse.
Go.
Don't think about it!
Stop.
Do not make a decision.
That's my job.
Not yours.
I'll remember that, Sir.
Let's see your face.
My business card.
Take it.
It has my name, contacts and address.
You can call the police...
or call the media.
That's the extent of your rights.
But if the police comes looking for me,
or if the media mentions my name,
you will die. I guarantee that.
You will die.
Are you married?
Any kids?
Make up your mind.
Give up your rights and live,
or claim your rights and die.
Let's go.
(Sarang Orphanage)
Ha Jung Tae speaking.
You asked about Choi Soon Seok.
Do you think you'd recognise the boy's face?
I would.
I think...
I found him.
Are you sure?
That's for you to confirm.
I'll be there.
Don't bother.
You're a busy man. I'll visit you.
I'd love to visit the famous Goongnakwon.
I smell money already.
(Sarang Orphanage)
You scared me.
Sorry.
Are you looking for something?
Not at all.
Hey.
Our director might wonder.
She's right.
I agree.
The atmosphere's very icky in here.
Isn't it?
Clean up.
Shouldn't you leave?
Are you going to stay here forever?
I was looking for you.
I considered stealing that photo, too.
Give it to me.
It's the only photo of us four together.
Keep it.
We can make copies of it later.
Yes, let's do that.
Oh, take the kids grocery shopping later.
Where are you going?
To school.
(Sarang Orphanage embezzlement records)
This is more than enough.
There's a reason your grades had dropped.
It's my fault if I can't get into Seoul National University.
Not the kids'.
If I leave,
I'll forget about them.
Even if I say I won't,
I can't go back, just like you.
Yeo Kyung.
I'll do the same.
The best I'll do...
is send the kids some money.
And someone might take that, too.
(I can do it! Don't give up!)
Don't get me wrong. This is me throwing them away.
Hello?
Is he mad?
Rings are for girls.
He's lying about it being a friendship ring.
I think it's cool.
It even has a cubic on it.
Don't you know about unisex jewellery?
What?
How dare you say that word.
In broad daylight, too.
Your ignorance gives me the chills.
Why do we need pine nuts?
How've you been doing, boys?
Are you going blind?
Is that funny?
Is it?
I'll pay you back soon.
That day, you'll be crying instead of laughing.
- Chul Doo. - It's Doo Chul!
You got a new bike.
Those jerks.
How dare they.
(Chogyeok)
What do you want?
Whatever he's having.
Hey, lady.
Is this how you con people?
What? I con people?
- What do you mean? - This isn't chicken broth.
Says who? Can you prove it?
I can.
You used artificial seasoning instead of broth.
And the shredded chicken. You bleached it with something.
What's wrong with you? Get out of here.
I won't. Not until you apologise.
I should just...
Lady, if I go through your kitchen,
and I find a packet of fake broth,
I will make a mess of the whole place.
Your nose still works.
I could smell the glacial acetic acid right away.
It's weird if you can't.
Stay that picky,
and you'll end up with a guy with stinky armpits.
Don't jinx me.
We met again after five years and you haven't said hello yet.
You smell of gangsters and prison cells.
And artificial additives.
The smell doesn't seep into you.
The smell seeps out of you.
You've grown, Da Hae.
You've gotten old, Dokku.
I know it's a lie.
I wish I could show you my insides.
You can't hide it from me. I will find out one day.
There's nothing to hide or find out.
Stop imagining things and forget about him.
I loved him more than anyone.
His smell is part of me and won't go away.
How can I forget him?
Why did you call me over?
To see your face.
To see how much you'd grown.
Because I was afraid if I didn't, I'd forget what you looked like.
Okay?
I have an ego, too, you know.
Open that up and press one.
Then I'll come right over.
Why are you here?
To repay a debt.
I'm always in debt.
I hope you smell better next time.
Get lost.
Did you have a friend, Dad?
Okay.
Hang on.
Yeo Kyung, I'm going on a business trip.
Manage the kids. I'll be back tomorrow.
We agreed not to say "manage".
My goodness. I feel terrible.
Look after the kids for me. Okay?
He never goes on a business trip.
It's like a lucky charm or talisman.
Are you nervous?
Horribly.
You'll get in.
I know that.
So don't do anything bad.
I'll come and see you.
Did you cook rice noodles on purpose?
For easier digestion.
The broth was meant to warm me up.
You're an expert now.
It was the first time I was served alone.
Thanks a lot.
What a wonderful weather.
Let's go and score a deal.
It's time to make some money.
(Police Academy Fitness Test)
- There he is. - Tae Ha.
- Oh, dear. - I feel so nervous.
The photo's gone.
Why won't he look for it?
Why is he so carefree?
- Look, he's getting ready. - He is.
- Park Tae Ha. - Here.
- Go, Tae Ha! - Go, Tae Ha!
Who are they?
They're my friends.
They're a lively bunch.
- What's the goal? - 200 seconds.
Tae Ha, get it over and done with in 150 seconds!
- Go, Tae Ha. - He shouldn't be here then.
He should be representing Korea.
Get ready.
A burglary suspect is running through an alley.
Go and get him.
Get him!
I knew it!
He's doing it.
Why is he running so fast?
He has to run fast to finish within 150 seconds.
1,000 meters?
He'd even run 10,000 meters that fast.
Does it make sense?
Of course it doesn't make sense.
So why?
Because you told him to run fast.
It is the last lap.
That's what we did.
We did anything that Yeo Kyung told us to do...
in order to see a smile on her face.
Then...
we could smile, too.
He's coming in.
Make a spurt!
Run!
- Okay! - Yes!
Good job!
What's the record?
It is unbelievable.
I should have brought a video camera.
I should have recorded the scene.
Like the time you fell down?
I think I have the video somewhere.
You always get in the way of everything I do.
The director is not around. Should we celebrate this with a drink?
Where is the director?
He is on a business trip. Why?
He went to Masan.
He didn't need the picture...
since he had the videotape.
Cab!
Where can I take you?
Masan.
- Do you have money? - Just go.
I will pay you no matter what.
Just go!
I have to stop him.
Start driving.
Are you out of your mind?
Get off the cab.
I have no time for this.
This is amazing.
He is raking in the money.
I have to leave...
to survive.
I have to survive...
to destroy him.
Sir. The director of Sarang Orphanage is here.
Bring him in.
Hello.
This place is amazing.
This is just a noodle restaurant, but...
Anyway, it is impressive.
- Let me see it. - Okay.
Let me see.
Here it is.
I tried hard...
to find this tape.
And the gas prices are so high these days.
I have a picture, but it was too blurry.
This one is very clear.
There you go.
(Sarang Orphanage Sport Day)
What's wrong this it?
What...
is happening?
Hang on.
It can't be right.
You walked in here.
You'd better crawl out then.
Mr Hwang.
Wait. There must be a misunderstanding.
I will check again.
Sir! Sir!
I will look for it again.
Sir!
It's about time he falls down.
In 1, 2 and 3.
How did you know?
I didn't mean to listen in.
Choi Soon Seok.
He might be as old as the boy who just left.
He'll probably have a scar from a burn.
I knew it when he said "scar from a burn".
That's when I knew you were Choi Soon Seok.
And that some noodle master is looking for you...
and that you had to hide from him.
And this video tape.
This is too big to hide.
It is not important whether...
or not you are Choi Soon Seok.
I don't care about what happened before you came here.
What is done cannot be undone.
But Moo Myeong.
Let's not...
run away.
We have nowhere to go.
I was the only one...
who didn't know that we had nowhere to go.
And that this is the end.
Were you waiting for me?
Did you want to see my face?
Are you the one who replaced the tape?
Tell me, you jerk.
Let me ask you a question.
"Success is the best revenge."
What do you think of the saying?
- What? - I don't agree with that.
I think...
the best revenge is to pay someone back with more than what you got.
- That's the right thing to do. - What are you talking about?
Let me give you some advice.
Don't meddle in my affairs.
If you want to,
you will have to risk your life.
You are crazy.
Water.
Chul Doo.
It's Doo Chul.
Whatever.
Who is...
the best fighter here?
Bravo!
I did it.
We have 6 double cherries on slot number 19.
Yes!
This is your tip.
Thank you very much. I hope you do well.
Welcome.
How have you been?
You can sit back for a second.
Are you the owner?
Have you eaten?
Did you eat something weird?
You must be insane.
I didn't eat anything weird. Have you eaten?
I starved myself to feed on your flesh.
That's good to hear.
Because some kids throw up when I hit the pit of their stomach.
Are you insane?
This place is mine.
Does anybody have a problem?
If you do, get your weapons before you find me.
I will put on a show for you.
First of all, give me my motorbike back.
After you do that,
give me the money you took from me.
Just thinking about that makes me mad.
But make it 10 times the original amount, okay?
You fool.
You'll give be 10 times more,
or I will make a mess at your orphanage.
Gosh.
Where's Tae Ha?
He went to give the motorbike back.
What? This is bad.
Returned.
You're way too naive.
It's not like you're returning books.
It's not good enough just to return it.
Give us the rental fee.
Tae Ha, do you have 10 times the original amount?
You can do whatever you want with this.
You must be insane.
Do you think you can ignore me because you'll be a police officer?
Let's stop this, Chul Doo.
I can't fight a thug like you as a police officer.
I said, I am Doo Chul!
I can't sleep because of this noise!
I'm sorry, Sir.
Take all of the guys for a walk in that mountain.
I need to talk to this guy.
Sir, that mountain is too...
Why, is it too short?
- Do you want two trips? - No, Sir.
- Guys, let's go. - Yes, Sir.
Are you Tae Ha?
We've met before, haven't we?
Wow, you look nothing like him.
Are you really Park Tae Ha?
Who are you?
Me?
I'm Dokku. I never lose a target when I set my heart on it.
Didn't your father ever talk about me?
Don't you bring my father into this.
What will you do if I do?
Your father was a sissy, wasn't he?
He would wet his pants...
and shake in fear when I simply glared at him.
It looks like that dog gave a birth to a tiger.
Tae Ha.
My gosh, get up, Tae Ha.
Aren't you going to fight me?
Not today.
Are you protecting your men?
You're right. That's a smart move.
Take them.
I heard Tae Ha is...
trying to become a police officer.
- Am I right? - Yes.
You'll be the first one to get imprisoned.
He goes crazy whenever someone mentions his father's name.
Will he make it?
Sir, wasn't that weird?
It's about the director of Sarang Orphanage.
I seriously doubt that he was messing with you.
There is no reason to tell such an obvious lie.
See yourself out.
Come, on, I'm telling you.
This guy hits me,
and that guy hits me.
I have become the loser of this town.
I,
Lee Myung Shik,
the great Lee Myung Shik is a loser.
I'm not sure why I feel like this
I'm not sure what is up with me
I'm really unsure.
Man, I have no idea.
Oh, my. Hello, Brother.
It's very late at night. What's the deal?
Cut it out. Why are you going around doing stupid things?
It's about the Sarang Orphanage embezzlement records.
Mr Park snatched this record out when a report was made.
You, me and everyone will go down if this becomes public.
You'd better take care of this.
My gosh.
It was you, wasn't it? Get up.
It was you.
You made the report, right?
Did you think I was stupid?
Stop right there.
You're driving me crazy.
You can't run away from me.
Come here.
How dare you two team up against me?
I'm going to put an end to your life.
You'll regret doing that for life.
Come here.
Stay still.
(Mr Ha Jung Tae of Goongnakwon)
(Master of Revenge)
Live long.
You'll have done everything in vain if you die now.
I have a secret and it must be kept.
Keep your eyes on Yeo Kyung at all times.
What happened? Why am I the witness?
I won't let you go like this.
Don't you even dream about it.
I'm not hunting him down. I'm looking for my friend's son.
I'm just paying back my debt which I owe you from Masan.
It's case number 1994-J-5021.
Investigate it.
You can't fool me by pretending like you know nothing.
