(While You Were Sleeping)
There are cruel moments you never want...
to encounter in life.
- Please calm down. - He's my brother!
Just a second, please.
And those cruel moments are always...
preceded by choices that brought them about.
Yes, I'm Mr. Park Jun Mo's daughter, Park So Yoon.
I just want to know...
what's going on with my dad's case.
We received the injured party's request not to punish him,
so we'll probably be told to drop the case soon.
I see. Thank you.
(Episode 3)
And those little choices come back...
as regrets and haunt us later on in life.
If we can alter those seemingly insignificant choices,
we might be able to prevent such cruel moments.
(Antifreeze for All Seasons)
Seung Won.
Let's go. I'll walk you home.
Let go. Just pretend you never saw me.
Don't be like this. Let's go talk to the police or the prosecution.
There must be a way.
There's nothing we can do.
I heard that the prosecutor will bury everything.
He's dumb, and he works unnecessarily hard.
Who's that dumb and unnecessarily hard-working prosecutor?
Who's Seung Won?
He's my brother. Why do you ask?
In my dream, a guy named Seung Won...
killed someone.
Sorry?
His name is Jung Jae Chan?
That's right. Prosecutor Jung Jae Chan.
He's colluding with the attorney.
That can't be.
What do you mean?
That prosecutor is...
my brother.
What?
(Jae Chan)
Is he not picking up?
Jae Chan.
So Yoon. It's me, Mom.
Do you want to sleep over at Sung Hee's place tonight?
Mom and Dad have to talk about something today.
Why can't I be home?
Mom, Mom.
So Yoon!
Please.
Seung Won.
Keep yourself together!
You said you had a dream too, right?
Let's see if our dreams match.
- When was it? - Tonight.
Both of us are wearing the outfits I saw in the dream.
That means we don't have much time.
Tell me about your dream in detail.
It looked like a rich family's living room.
There was a piano at the center.
A piano?
Yes. A married couple fought there.
No, I can't really say that they fought.
It looked like the woman was getting beaten up by her husband.
Mom!
Their daughter and Seung Won came in right at that moment.
Please stop, sir!
Who are you supposed to be?
Seung Won, watch out!
Then while trying to stop the fight, Seung Won...
He ended up pushing the husband off the balcony.
This is all your fault.
I became a murderer because of you.
He resented his brother.
He said he became a murderer because of his brother.
Why is it your fault though?
Could it be...
about the Park Jun Mo case?
The Park Jun Mo case?
My friend is having a piano recital today. Do you want to go?
You know the piano prodigy, Park So Yoon, right?
- He's her dad. - Accused, Park Jun Mo.
The injured party does not wish the accused to be punished.
Therefore, the case is unprosecutable.
The end. My gosh! It didn't even take five minutes.
That's why he said it's my fault.
It's because I let Park Jun Mo go.
Do you happen to remember where that apartment building was?
I saw two moons from the window.
(Star World Exhibition)
Hey, Woo Tak. Can you relieve me?
Gosh, what on earth does he do every night?
Who killed him?
His wife? His daughter?
No, it was a young man who went into their place to stop the fight.
There he is.
My goodness, he's still so young.
Gosh, he's very handsome too.
My goodness.
Well... I was just trying to help my friend's mother.
Seung Won, Seung Won!
Jae Chan, get me out. I didn't kill him, Jae Chan.
Just a second, Officer. Wait.
- Sir. - Stop!
- You can't be doing this. - He's my brother.
- Please calm down. - He's my brother!
Let go of me, please!
Sir, you can't do this!
Are you up?
I didn't sleep.
Wipe your mouth first.
Okay.
Shall I drive, Kyung Han?
Yes.
Is your stomach upset?
Is it because of the oysters I ate earlier? Why is my stomach turning?
Why don't you use the washroom at the patrol division?
All right.
That's...
What's the matter?
It's nothing.
Let's hurry. Come on.
You would've killed that man had I not stopped the car.
Seung Won, Seung Won!
Hey, try to go faster.
I don't know how much longer I can hold it. Speed up, okay?
Hey, turn off the siren. It's not that urgent.
Turn it off already.
(Application for Divorce)
You also want me to pay for So Yoon's school abroad?
What am I? UNICEF? Mother Teresa?
We put it down in writing earlier.
You said you'd do anything I ask of you if I write that statement.
You're talking as if you deserve all this for scribbling that thing.
Both the prosecutor and the law are on my side now.
Why would I do this for you?
Do you know why the law is on my side?
Even if I do this...
Even if I do all this...
No one can touch me at all. Do you know why that is?
It's because everything here including you is mine.
I can do whatever I want with what's mine.
The law knows it very well because it's fair.
I'll get the forms again.
You piece of...
Jae Chan.
(Episode 3: Secretly, Greatly)
- What's going on? - What happened?
- What's all this fuss about? - It was so loud.
I know, right?
- Who pressed the fire alarm? - Is this a prank?
Mom.
So Yoon.
What's all this noise about?
Are you okay?
- Are you all right? - I'm fine, of course.
Let's go over there.
It's so chilly. What on earth is going on?
- Someone pressed it? - Did somebody file a false report?
You pressed the fire alarm, didn't you? I saw you pressing it earlier.
Well, I thought I saw some smoke.
Don't you smell something burning?
I don't smell anything.
Where did you see the smoke?
I think she pulled a prank.
Miss, did you file a false report or not?
I really saw it.
Was it over there?
Was it coming from the back?
I saw it too. I mean, the smoke.
So, it's not a false report.
What should we do, then?
I clearly told you to go straight home.
Why didn't you listen to me?
I had a reason.
If you let me explain, you'll understand why...
I already know that your friend is Park Jun Mo's daughter.
And you're here because you were worried about her.
You know? And you're still being like this?
Was I supposed to turn a blind eye or what?
Yes, turn a blind eye! You'll get hurt if you get involved.
And why didn't you pick up?
I couldn't answer your call because I was so ashamed of you!
- What? - Turn a blind eye?
Even if something horrible could've happened to my friend?
How can you say that? You shouldn't even call yourself a prosecutor!
You would've killed him hadn't I intervened.
That's not what you should be saying!
You should admit your fault...
and apologize for being a clueless prosecutor.
"I'll investigate it properly."
"Just trust me. You don't have to worry."
That's what a prosecutor should be saying!
You're my big brother, right?
A prosecutor is nothing special after all.
As a brother, you're really nothing special.
That's right. I'm nothing special.
But you're even more insignificant than me.
Even I will get in trouble if I act up. Who do you think you are?
I'm seriously so ashamed of you.
That's better than you getting hurt.
Don't get involved in So Yoon's problems.
You should sleep at Sung Hee's place tonight.
It's too late.
And what about you?
I'm fine.
Let's go to my place.
- Sorry? - Who are you?
I'm your friend's brother's girlfriend.
Let's get out of here before your husband sees you.
Geum Sook!
Let's go.
So Yoon!
Geum Sook!
So Yoon!
It's so hard to hail a taxi here.
There are many other places we can go.
Really? Where?
Tell me. I'll take you there.
Well, I just thought you should know...
that there are many other places we can go.
What?
Kyung Han, I actually had...
a really strange dream earlier.
- In the dream, I saw... - I can't...
believe this situation right now.
Woo Tak, I really have to go to the bathroom.
We'll get there very soon. Just hold it for five more minutes.
Five more minutes? No, my muscles down there...
I can't even hold it for another minute.
Let's hurry.
Hey, what's going on?
Why are you pulling over? Why?
Hey, what now? What's happening?
What are you doing here?
We have to go home, but there's no bus at this hour.
We can't seem to hail a taxi either.
- Which way are you going? - I really have to go.
The washroom at the patrol division...
I live near Sangku-dong.
Please get in. We're going that way on patrol anyway.
Thank you.
I can't believe this.
We've met before, haven't we?
Sorry?
Don't you remember me? On Valentine's Day,
we almost got into a huge accident, you know.
That's right. No wonder why you looked familiar.
Oh, it's not what you're thinking. He meant a car accident.
You're a police officer.
I didn't even get to thank you that day as I was so out of it.
Don't worry. It's okay.
I'm...
not okay.
I'm sorry...
to inconvenience you like this.
Hong Joo told me briefly about what happened.
So Yoon, what are you doing?
Are there only two rooms?
You two can use the master bedroom. I can sleep in Hong Joo's room.
It's okay. I think my mom and I should sleep in the living room.
Forget it. It gets cold here.
You don't need to feel bad. Just sleep in the master bedroom.
I'm not saying it because I feel bad. I prefer to sleep on the floor.
And my mom would prefer to sleep on the couch. Right, Mom?
What?
Yes, of course.
I would prefer to sleep on the couch.
Then I'll go bring a heating mat. You should sleep on it.
Otherwise, the cold floor will paralyze your face.
I told you. I like sleeping on bare floor.
Hong Joo, then go bring the heater.
No, it's okay.
My skin is dry, and heaters make it so much worse.
She's not that sociable because she's an only child.
I'm sorry.
Gosh, don't be.
My only child also has dry skin, so I certainly know what it's like.
I'm honestly so embarrassed.
I'm too embarrassed of Jae Chan...
to even walk around in this neighborhood.
Honey, calm down.
Calm down and put that briquette down first.
We can talk about it, okay? Don't scare us like this.
I'm scaring you? You find this scary?
To me, money is scarier.
That idiot got ripped off, and he now owes them 5,000 dollars.
That scares me a million times more than anything else does.
5,000 dollars...
Strictly speaking, if we think about compensating them for all damages...
done to the property and the business,
5,000 dollars sounds pretty reasonable.
It is right that the offender pays the money.
Is that so? Then shall we talk about what's really right and wrong?
Our eldest son fooled us and practically stole...
money from us to buy his motorcycle.
Then he drove into a store and caused all this damage!
And you. I have to work so hard because you get paid peanuts.
Considering everything, you two deserve a death sentence!
Fine, let's all die today!
Gosh, what should we do?
- Oh, no! - My gosh!
Goodness!
Honey, this is... Gosh, it's so hot!
The floor... My goodness.
- What are you doing, Mom? - Gosh.
You said we should all die. Are you that worried about the floor?
Get out.
I can't even stand the sight of you, so get out!
- Get out right now! - Honey!
- Get out! - Gosh.
Hey, Seung Won.
Mom told me to tell you that she didn't send these.
Jae Chan. Try to behave yourself, okay?
You little...
Seung Won.
Are you asleep?
I'm sorry.
You must've resented me a lot earlier at the substation.
It's all because I'm incompetent.
Because I'm so incompetent,
I have too many regrets.
I just don't want you to turn out like me.
I want you...
to have a much better life.
I guess that's why my expectations keep getting higher.
I want you to be taller than me.
I want you to own a car...
even if I commute by bus.
I've never been on an airplane,
but I want you to fly first class all the time.
I started my career as a Grade Nine public official,
so I want you to start at a higher level.
You probably manipulated your report cards like that...
because you felt...
smothered by my expectations of you.
I'm sorry I stressed you out.
I'm an incompetent dad.
I'm sorry.
Gosh, seriously. I can't believe myself.
Am I sexually frustrated or what?
A kiss? And it was...
I kissed him first?
That's so wrong. It makes me look so pathetic!
I can only eat food my mom makes.
I can't function without my mom's food.
Please have a seat. We put a couple extra sets of cutlery.
Oh, I see. Thank you.
Mom, where's the toilet plunger?
The toilet is clogged.
It looks like a cow took a big dump in there!
It's not mine.
Hey, I'll unclog it later. Just come out.
Hurry up!
We're inconveniencing you so much.
Oh, no. Not at all. I'll just think that the poop is mine...
I mean, please don't worry and just make yourselves at home.
Relax. Oh, thank you.
Thank you.
Let's try to relax.
Gosh, it's so hot!
My gosh.
Have breakfast before you go.
I have no appetite.
Since when did he care about things like that?
I'll never become a prosecutor.
Goodness, don't you worry.
You'll never be able to become one with the grades you've been getting.
My, this is so delicious.
Are you really not going to eat? You'll regret it.
Gosh, he's such a brat.
How about you try trusting that prosecutor?
Yes, just trust him...
and stay here until the case gets resolved.
The case is already closed.
The prosecutor has decided not to indict my husband.
I actually asked him about it.
The assistant chief prosecutor hasn't approved it,
so the case isn't closed yet.
So, if you can help him out a bit...
Help him with what?
Dad's attorney and that stupid prosecutor already ended the game.
Why are you calling him stupid?
All prosecutors are stupid.
A victim's statement is all they need to let the accused go.
Then don't write it.
Hadn't my mom written it,
Dad would've beaten her up until she wrote it.
Then tell the prosecutor all about the coercion and assault.
I told you it's pointless because they're colluding to dupe us!
Hey, how can someone stupid do such a thing?
See? You're admitting that they're colluding.
That's not what I meant. Goodness.
You little... Do you want to bet?
That prosecutor will...
investigate your dad and put him behind bars. I'll bet...
I'll bet... Listen up, okay?
Stop trying too hard.
You probably don't even have anything to bet.
Hey! You're the one who clogged up the toilet, right?
You sure took a huge dump.
How childish.
Get lost.
Gosh, that little...
You're going to poop again, aren't you?
It's yours!
No, it's yours!
- I know that it's yours! - Raising an only child...
is so challenging at times.
I always tell myself that it must be better than having two of her.
Don't lie to my face!
- Hey! - She takes after her dad, not me.
How much is it?
- It comes to 16 dollars. - Okay.
Here you go.
What's going on?
Did you foresee again in your dream that I'd be here?
No, I've been waiting for you.
What happened to your forehead?
And your finger too.
I hurt myself a little while making breakfast earlier.
Where's she going now?
I'm sorry.
Burns can get infected if they're not treated properly.
Bring your face closer.
Don't worry about it. I'll put it on myself.
What are you doing now?
My goodness, it has turned into a blister.
You'll probably be hospitalized if you make breakfast again.
Gosh, I said I can put it on myself.
Have you had a chance to talk with your brother?
Don't even get me started.
He yelled at me and said I shouldn't even call myself a prosecutor.
I was so worried about him. He doesn't even know that I saved him.
It's so unrewarding.
I know, right?
That girl, So Yoon, is the same.
I let her stay at my place because I was worried about her.
She should really be thanking me,
but all she does is lash out at me.
Why did we even do all that to save them?
You got a cut on your finger too, right? Let me see.
Other people may not know, but I do.
You tried so hard.
Good work.
You too.
Gosh, you startled me.
Jae Chan, what brings you here?
There's something I want to tell you.
What is it?
I'll aim to start at a level higher than Grade Nine.
What?
Did you hear everything that night?
Hey, do you even know what it means?
Actually, I don't know. What is it?
Do you always wear glasses? You don't have contact lenses?
I do, but they're such a hassle.
Why do you ask?
Do I look better without glasses?
No, it was all fogged up earlier, so I thought it might be annoying.
No, it doesn't bother me at all.
Why does it bother you?
Do I look different without my glasses?
Are you even more smitten?
Keep wearing them if it doesn't bother you.
If you're bothered, I'll gladly take them off.
By the way, what's going on with the Park Jun Mo case?
You'll re-investigate it, right?
It's all over. How can I re-investigate it?
You'll turn a blind eye to it once again?
Even after all that ruckus last night?
Your brother almost killed someone.
I saved my brother, so it's all good now.
What are you talking about?
You have to find more evidence and indict Park Jun Mo.
With what?
Shall I say he beat her up in your dream?
Do you want me to indict him with no evidence?
- Today is the deadline. - Get it extended!
I can't keep getting it extended.
I have over 300 cold cases to work on this month alone.
If I insist on re-investigating this obvious case,
I'll get transferred to some faraway place.
I don't have any connections, so I might even get fired.
You'll bury it just because you're scared of getting fired?
That's right. I'm scared of being fired.
Listen. I had to scrap my new car because of that accident.
I have 36 months left on my auto loan.
I also have to pay the interest on my home loan,
so I never have any money in my bank account.
My eyes are welling up with tears again.
Taxi!
Memorize this, okay?
45-15-35-43-27-33.
What is that?
This week's winning lottery number.
I saw it in my dream.
I never buy lottery tickets even if I see winning numbers in my dream,
but I'll only share this information with you.
It's for 2.8 million dollars.
Stop spewing total nonsense.
Do you expect me to believe that?
Yes, and run at them.
Because getting fired won't be a problem if I win 2.8 million?
Think of it as an insurance and just do it.
Do you think I look like a pathetic loser...
who bites his tongue because of money?
Well, I'm just...
You talked about your loan and car payment.
I'm not the type of person who chooses what to say...
and what to hold back based on money.
Taxi!
What was that about?
He loves to bluff, but he's so inconsistent.
He's cool though.
What's that on your forehead? Did you get a pimple?
Let's have lunch together.
I promised you that I'd buy you sushi. Let's do it today.
I'm the prosecutor in charge of your case.
Not anymore.
You've been acting so feisty. Was it all for a show?
I saw that you decided not to indict Mr. Park and drop the case.
Who said I dropped the case?
Mr. Choi told me.
I haven't submitted it to Mr. Park yet.
I've been studying the documents,
and it doesn't look like I can let it go.
Hey!
It's an assault case, and the victim doesn't want him to be punished.
What on earth are you saying, Jae Chan?
That will only work when it's a simple assault case.
I also noticed a few other things that seem suspicious.
There are people who need to be summoned as well.
Things that seem suspicious?
People who need to be summoned?
There's no such thing.
You won't find anything even if you study those documents for months.
Know with whom you're dealing with if you want to bluff away.
Jae Chan.
I know what card you're holding.
Yu Beom,
do you know what's more awful than not knowing anything?
Thinking that you know everything.
I must've totally lost my mind.
Why did I bluff like that? How am I going to handle it all?
Gosh.
45-15-35-43-27-33.
Ms. Moon! Just a second.
You're taking them to Mr. Park, right?
Do I look like I'm taking them out for recycling?
Just a moment, okay?
What are you doing now?
I want to dig the Park Jun Mo case again.
Great, found it.
All he does is dig. Is he a groundhog or what?
This is why we still have a mountain of cold cases.
Being excruciatingly slow is a lot worse than being stupid.
I feel bad for you.
- Mr. Choi. - Yes.
Please summon Mr. Park Jun Mo.
I'd like the doctor from Kiyoung Hospital and the victim, Ms. Do,
to be cross-examined, so summon them for the same day.
I thought the case got closed because it's not prosecutable.
I brought it back.
I see.
Oh, right. Please tell the doctor to bring copies of all records.
Sure.
Gosh, this means I have to work late again.
I love you, Mr. Choi.
Why are you calling my office? You have my cell phone number.
This makes me feel like we're all about work, which we aren't.
This call is about work.
Prosecutor Jung wants to summon Mr. Park to re-investigate the case.
I want to see which dates work for him.
Goodness, he's going overboard.
He can send us any questions he has.
I don't think you understand what's going on.
It looks like he'll even request a warrant if Mr. Park doesn't come.
Then it'll turn into a huge headache.
I can't let that happen.
I'll talk to him so that you won't have to worry about such a headache.
Okay. Salute.
Darn it! Jae Chan, that jerk. How dare he!
Yes, Mr. Lee.
Track down Park Jun Mo's wife and daughter.
Got it.
I notified him of the summons, but I don't think it'll be easy.
I didn't think it'd be easy.
Right. Yes.
Prosecutor Jung.
Mr. Park would like to see you.
45-15-35-43-27-33.
45-1... Gosh.
(Assistant Chief Prosecutor Park Dae Young)
45-15-35-43-27-33.
Hey, come on in.
I must say, your good looks...
surely have made a positive contribution to our division.
It'd be amazing if you could also contribute to boosting...
the team's performance.
I'll do my best.
Thank you.
Have some tea.
I noticed that the Park Jun Mo case isn't included in the pile...
of reports you sent to me for approval.
I heard it's an assault case, and the victim isn't seeking punishment.
It's an obvious case. Aren't you spending too much time on it?
I can't trust the medical report,
and he may have been assaulting her habitually.
Are you sure it's not because it's Lawyer Lee Yu Beom's case?
No, that's not the reason.
Then just submit the report and focus on other cases.
This is why the cold cases keep piling up.
I'll dig a bit deeper and see if I can find anything else.
There are other cases that are more urgent.
Why are you so hung up on that specific case?
If you keep acting like this,
it'll look like you're trying to get back at Lawyer Lee like he said.
I can't do that?
- What? - Whether that's true or not,
there's nothing wrong with wanting to examine a case thoroughly.
Are you joking with me now or what?
I don't care even if you misunderstand my intentions.
If I drop the case just to avoid such a misunderstanding,
it'll come back as a crueler case later on.
So, I plan to look into everything including all past incidents...
very thoroughly.
How dare you!
Goodness. Apparently, Mr. Park yelled at him.
"How dare you!"
Gosh, it takes a lot for him to say that.
"How dare you!" He rarely says it.
I guess the newbie's motto is living an intense...
but short life.
Apparently, he kept talking back to Mr. Park.
He's brave!
He lives today as if there's no tomorrow!
I used to get punched when I talked back.
I guess he can't hold back what he wants to say.
Was he like that in college too?
Not at all. Why is he being so gutsy?
Did he win the lottery or what?
How does it feel?
Isn't this model so amazing?
It's one of the most fuel-efficient luxury sedans.
A whiff of gas is all it needs to start moving.
That's technology. It's our brand's exclusive technology.
Could you please take a picture of me driving?
Of course! Sure thing.
Oh, my. That looks great.
Is it because of the red interiors?
It's perfect for a young CEO.
A young CEO.
What would be good as a second car if I get this as my main car?
A second car?
My gosh.
That's right. The latest trend is getting another car for leisure...
in addition to the main one you use for work. Absolutely.
It's certainly not an unnecessary luxury.
- Just a moment, please. - Sure.
Where are you going?
It's none of your business. Why do you ask?
There's something I want to tell you.
I told my boss that I plan to re-investigate the case.
I'll be sure to bring the truth to light, no matter what anyone says.
Seriously?
Why were you being so difficult if you were going to do it anyway?
Do your actions and words generally not match?
- Are you two-faced? - No.
I'd say I'm a man of my word.
It doesn't seem that way.
By the way, whose car is that?
Oh, I'm test-driving it.
Are you going to buy that car?
Well, I'll see.
Are you getting it because you believed my lie...
about the winning lottery number?
What? That was a lie?
Did you actually believe it?
Goodness, do you think I'm crazy? Why would I believe such nonsense?
Right?
Gosh, I'm so relieved.
That's not why you spoke up against your boss, right?
I already told you. I'm not the type of person who bites his tongue...
because of money.
Of course I know that you're not like that.
I should get going.
I've been studying the documents,
and it doesn't look like I can let it go.
Hey!
So, I plan to look into everything including all past incidents.
How dare you!
I must be going crazy.
My gosh.
He wants to buy an additional car,
and he'll get all the options.
Gosh, honey. Calm down, please.
It's not that big of a deal.
Honey, we should get our son a new phone.
No, not a used one. Let's get him a brand new phone. Of course!
I'll call you back later.
I'll speak to you soon.
Sir, I thought hard about what would be best for you.
You said you want a second car. For the additional car,
I think an SUV would be perfect.
That being said, I'd like to recommend this model to you.
What do you think?
Good to know. I'll keep that in mind.
Right, I thought it's a bit too soon...
to talk about getting an additional car.
Then when would you like to purchase this model?
I guess I'll buy it sometime in the future.
I see, sometime in the future.
I'm in trouble.
Let's go back before the rush hour begins.
Yes, I'm telling you. I obviously have more seniority than him,
but he keeps calling me by my first name at work.
He rebelled against Mr. Park as if he's ready to leave this field.
Hey, exactly.
I know this because I worked on one of Park Jun Mo's cases last year.
Being enthusiastic isn't enough to solve such cases...
My gosh!
What's going on, Prosecutor Jung? What are you doing here?
I'm thinking about leaving this field.
Did you hear everything?
Let's talk casually. There's no one else here.
Yes, let's do that. I mean...
All right.
Did you also not indict him when you worked on his case last year?
What happened was...
I'm not here to argue. I'm just asking out of curiosity.
That's right. I didn't indict him.
Sorry, I still sound so formal.
This wouldn't have happened had you indicted him back then.
You don't regret it?
No, I don't. I'd make the same decision even if I were to go back.
- Why is that? - I'm sure you've heard this before.
"We will fight for justice and human rights."
"We will become warm prosecutors who help the weak and underprivileged."
That's the Prosecutors' Oath.
At times, fighting for justice...
and helping the weak can clash.
As in the Park Jun Mo case.
In many domestic abuse cases,
arresting the husband who is the breadwinner results in...
the rest of the family having to struggle to sustain themselves.
His wife writing that statement doesn't mean she forgave him.
We all know that.
We're only pretending not to know...
because we want his wife to make a choice...
between staying inside the thorny walls...
and braving the thornbush by stepping out of those walls.
People like us who are sitting in a field of pretty flowers...
don't have any right to tell her what to do.
You want to indict and arrest him without such rights?
That's...
not justice.
It's foolish bravery.

Stop chuckling. Why wouldn't you tell me?
What did you mean by starting at a level higher than Grade Nine?
It means that you have to pass the bar exam.
I'll do it.
What can I become if I pass the bar exam?
Gosh, you can become many things.
Many jobs will become available to you, but I'm not sure.
Hello.
Dad, so what is it?
What do you want me to become?
Oh, Jae Chan.
Can you go home and bring my phone?
I forgot to bring it.
Sure.
Jae Chan.
How about a prosecutor?
Prosecutor?
Yes.
I'd love to see you becoming a prosecutor.
Sure, I'll try.
All right.
You can do it!
Dad.
No... Dad.
Dad...
That's when I learned...
that my dad made a choice.
I'm at the funeral...
of Captain Jung Il Song and the bus driver,
Nam Chul Du, who saved lives from the runaway soldier.
No, honey...
Dad sacrificed his life in order to save people,
and the world called him a hero.
But...
my mom lost her husband because of that choice,
and Seung Won and I lost our dad.
I can't really say...
that his choice made me proud. Rather, I resented it.
- Honey... - Dad...
To others, his choice meant justice.
But to me, it was nothing but a foolish bravery.
Honey...
Can I help you?
Oh, my goodness.
Gosh, I didn't believe my eyes.
What are you talking about?
Don't you remember me?
I'm the guy who almost got hit by the car on Valentine's Day.
Are you all right?
Yes.
Oh, you're that guy.
I should've thanked you sooner. I'm Han Woo Tak.
It's all right. I'm Jung Jae Chan.
You're a prosecutor.
Oh, yes. I work here.
Did you get hurt at all?
Of course not. Thanks to you, I'm totally fine.
I've been wanting to treat you to a meal. I'm so glad I ran into you.
How about we have dinner together this evening? Do you have plans?
No, I don't.
Then let's go.
I'll treat you to barbecue.
All right, sure.
I was born in the Year of the Dragon.
We're the same age, then.
My gosh, seriously? Then shall we talk casually like friends?
I don't want to.
Gosh.
(Hong Joo Samgyeopsal)
Hey, I don't need your help. Just go study.
I'm not doing this to help you.
I'm just bored. I can't stand being bored.
You're really something.
Just like somebody I know, you say one thing and mean another.
You put up a tough front, but you're not strong at all.
You seem like a nice girl, yet you say such mean things.
Ma'am, she's a pianist.
You can't make her do things that might hurt her hands.
Ma'am? Who? Where?
My, what a coincidence.
We meet again.
What a nice surprise.
I gave her a ride home in my police car a few days ago.
I only came here because I was craving pork belly suddenly.
Gosh, how can a coincidence like this happen?
Oh, I totally regretted not asking your name that day.
What's your name?
I'm Nam Hong Joo.
I'm Han Woo Tak. I was born in 1988, the Year of the Dragon.
I was born in the same year.
Then shall we just talk casually like friends?
- Sounds good! - Great.
It's so nice to be able to talk comfortably to an age-mate.
Hold on, that means all three of us are dragons.
We're like three flying dragons.
What? Three flying dragons?
That's so funny!
By the way, you look much better without glasses.
Really? You think so?
Goodness.
I found out where Mr. Park Jun Mo's wife and daughter are staying.
Where are they?
I clearly told you not to get involved with So Yoon.
What are you doing here? And why are you wearing that apron?
That's what I want to ask you.
Gosh, that brat.
I thought the two of you would be very loving towards each other,
but you're just like other brothers.
You even know that he's my brother?
It wasn't a coincidence, right?
Everything from running into me and bringing me here.
That's what I want to know as well.
Is all of this a coincidence?
Or is it fate?
Gosh, what are you doing now?
I actually don't feel anything.
Does it mean it's not fate?
- Where are you going? - I'm going to the washroom.
Will what I saw in my dream really happen?
In the dream...
- Hello. - On my way...
to this restaurant with Kyung Han,
- I ran into Jae Chan. - I'm Oh Kyung Han.
In the dream, we parted ways after exchanging names,
and I came here with Kyung Han.
The rest is the same as the dream.
From where the customers are sitting...
to what they ordered, everything is exactly the same.
I only made...
a very small change.
Instead of Kyung Han...
Even water is tasty here.
I brought Jae Chan here.
I'm so excited.
Stop joking around and be honest with me.
Is all of this a coincidence or did you bring me here on purpose?
You better not give me the spiel about fate.
Hold on.
Oh, 2 kimchi stew for Table 3.
Okay.
If this is like my dream,
that man will walk in through that door in five seconds.
Five.
Four.
Three.
2, 1.
Hello.
What brings you here, Yu Beom?
Gosh, it's really happening.
He got here in exactly five seconds.
I'm not here to see you, Hong Joo.
I'm here to speak with the two of you as Mr. Park's attorney.
I've seen enough to know that this must be fate, not a coincidence.
You know that man well, don't you?
I'm getting really curious.
That small change I made.
Will it...
prevent the horrible moments...
that are about to unfold?
