As a member of Joseon Youth Alliance,
I hereby announce that we'll keep fighting for Joseon's independence,
and that we will assassinate those who are in the way...
of our country's independence.
Move faster!
The comrades who manage to survive will gather at the halfway point,
move to Kyungsung Station, and get on the train to Manchuria.
I hope you will all make it through.
Move it.
They couldn't have gotten far. Go chase them!
(Chicago Typewriter)
Sniper Ryu Su Hyeon...
will leave the banquet hall as soon as she comes down the stage...
and join the group at the halfway point.
She will escort the comrades to Kyungsung Station.
Anastasia?
Aren't you Anastasia?
It is you, Anastasia.
Are you on the way to meet that composer again?
- Open it. - Yes, sir.
Oh, dear.
You play a very dangerous instrument.
- You're here. - Is everyone safe?
Everyone is fine, except for the ones who sacrificed themselves.
Did you get injured, Mr. Shin?
Oh, it's nothing serious.
It won't get in the way of our plan, so don't worry.
Let's now go to Kyungsung Station since everyone is here.
Wait.
Su Hyeon isn't here yet.
I clearly saw her getting out of the banquet hall...
with everyone else.
If she got out of the banquet hall before we did,
she should be here by now.
Do you think she got caught on her way here?
I only invited you to use you as bait...
to catch the leader of Joseon Youth Alliance.
But I can't believe you were the sniper of Joseon Youth Alliance.
I feel like I caught something bigger than I expected.
I told you already.
I have no idea what Joseon Youth Alliance is.
A guest I met at the banquet hall gave me some money...
and asked me to carry that case.
I had no idea that there would be a gun inside.
What a pity.
I also gave some money to my subordinate...
and asked him to do something for me.
I told him to keep an eye on you and track every single move you make...
as soon as you entered...
the banquet hall.
What a pity.
Why did you waste your time and effort on such a useless matter?
Who's the leader of Joseon Youth Alliance?
It's a shame.
I'd fully cooperate if you'd ask me a question...
I was capable of answering.
Don't you want to know why you are brought here?
I don't know what you're keeping me here for,
but you've chosen the wrong bait.
It's the look in your eyes.
It's because I saw the look in your eyes.
Gosh.
Okay.
Shall we start playing detective now?
Here's one hypothesis.
Either Shin Yul or Seo Hui Young...
is the leader of Joseon Youth Alliance.
Now, here's the truth.
They're both in love with you.
Here's my prediction. Therefore,
they will both come to your rescue.
I told you already!
I don't know anything about Joseon Youth Alliance!
Let's see about that.
Bring her in.
Are you really just going to leave Kyungsung?
We can't abandon Su Hyeon. We need to go save her.
We'll end up missing the train.
We can't lose any more time.
Then you guys should go first. I'll go look for Su Hyeon...
Do you even know where she is?
I'll have to figure that out.
With that injured body of yours?
So are you saying that we should leave her behind?
Su Hyeon is our comrade.
The ones who died at Hwanggeumjeong and the banquet hall...
were also our comrades.
The moment we all decided to fight for our country...
is the moment we were obligated to save our own lives.
That's our destiny.
Hui Young.
If we don't get there in time,
we won't be able to proceed with our next mission.
Let's all head to Kyungsung Station.
It's me.
Was that you?
You were supposed to arrive at Kyungsung Station before us...
and spy on what's happening over there.
Kyungsung Station is crawling with policemen.
It's not just Kyungsung Station.
There are policemen in every part of the city.
They're carrying out a very thorough inspection.
Also, I don't know who leaked the information, but there are...
policemen sitting in the cabin that we were supposed to be sitting in.
Is she the sniper?
Do you want your son to die?
Answer me. Is she the sniper?
Take her out.
Yes, sir.
Let's all scatter for now...
and observe how the situation unfolds.
Those of you whose identity hasn't gotten revealed yet...
shall carry on with your life like nothing ever happened.
If any one of you feel like you are being watched,
go and hide yourself at the hideout...
and contact each other like we always do.
- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.
Let's go.
Hui Young, we need to save Su Hyeon first.
Your injury might get infected.
You need to get treated first.
I heard this was Joseon Youth Alliance's hideout.
My goodness, what will happen now? They might have to shut down.
You were lucky.
Thankfully, you won't need to get stitches.
My mother always prayed at dawn in front of freshly drawn water.
She prayed for me...
to stay healthy at all times.
I guess I got lucky thanks to her prayers.
Boss, we have a situation.
I think Su Hyeon...
got caught by Heo Young Min.
Did he find out that Su Hyeon is the sniper?
If Sophia told them about her identity...
What do you mean? Why would Sophia say anything?
Are you saying that Madam Sophia is the secret agent?
I'm certain she is.
Sophia disappeared right before our mission,
and one of our comrades saw her entering the General Government.
Su Hyeon is in danger.
Do you think you can avoid...
getting investigated with your injured body?
Why don't you just go around...
and tell everyone that you got in a gun fight...
as a member of Joseon Youth Alliance?
Then are you saying we should do nothing?
Su Hyeon isn't the type to inform on us.
She'll eventually get tortured and die.
We need to save her.
Put that gun down.
If you're not going,
I'll go alone.
Stop right there, Shin Yul.
It's an order.
Did you forget already?
Our comrades who bombed...
Hwanggeumjeong that night...
all committed suicide...
before they got arrested.
They did that to protect our alliance...
and to save their comrades.
Hui Young.
Where and for what we decide to sacrifice our lives on...
is up to our own selves.
We must also protect ourselves...
with our own power.
Su Hyeon cannot be an exception.
- Hui Young! - After getting out of Kyungsung,
our plan was to prepare for battle.
Then with the money we stole, we would've gathered weapons...
and prepared for our next battle.
That was the ultimate goal of our mission.
The ones who have survived...
have the obligation to fulfill that goal.
That is how we can mourn for our fellow comrades...
who have died before us.
Mr. Jo.
Please check which of the comrades survived.
Once you have the number,
we will find the way to get out.
All right, Boss.
Eat up.
You'll need this to survive.
If you keep acting stubborn,
you will suffer a lot.
You will experience pain beyond your imagination.
You will...
beg them to kill you.
How could you manage to eat...
after betraying your comrades?
Just give up. Then you'll feel better.
Boss...
will take care of the rest.
When did you become a betrayer?
Are you the one who leaked information on the last mission?
Why did you do that?
How can you do this?
Everyone thought of you as a sister.
You were just like a mother to me.
What else could I have done?
My son was going to die otherwise.
I couldn't even breast-feed him once...
because I didn't want him to be called the son of kisaeng.
The joy of watching him from a distance...
helped me endure this tough life.
Who doesn't have a personal story?
That boy...
is locked in jail waiting to die.
He was charged for killing a Japanese detective...
who raped a school girl from Joseon.
If I can save him,
I would do anything.
Then how about our comrades?
How about our comrades who trusted you like their own sister?
Why should I care?
At the end of the day, they are all strangers.
My son comes first in any case.
Saving my son...
comes before saving my country.
Why do I have to save Joseon...
when it hasn't done anything for me?
Then you shouldn't have gotten involved in the first place.
Shut your mouth!
Come out.
I won't forgive you.
I will never forgive you.
As long as I'm alive...
No, even when I'm dead,
I will never forgive you!
Hey, how can you get married when you're so clumsy?
Goodness.
More rice falls on the table than on your mouth.
Please give me a bowl too.
Sure.
Is someone chasing you?
Do you have to go set out fire after you finish?
No. I'm going to eat fast and earn my keep.
Nobody is telling you to do so.
How can I slack until someone tells me...
to be money's worth?
A man must earn his keep and live a worthy life before he dies.
Only then I can be considered worthwhile.
Slow down.
You won't be able to get married if you keep eating like that.
Don't worry. I already have someone to marry.
You do?
Who could that be?
It's the masked man who saved me.
I'm going to find him and marry him.
I fell in love with him at first sight.
Do you have a way to find him?
I'll have to find him somehow.
And then?
Then you're going to marry him.
- Yes. - How can you be so confident?
- What do you mean? - He must have a say about this.
Do you think he will thank you...
and marry you if you tell him you want to marry him?
Are you...
that charming?
You're unbelievable too.
How can you marry him simply because he saved you?
If you marry everyone who saved you,
how many husbands should you have?
Don't worry. I'm not into having multiple husbands.
From now on,
I'm going to protect my own life.
It was you, wasn't it?
You're the masked man who saved me that time.
What are you talking about?
Where did she go?
Go that way!
If you are going to keep writing trashy romance novel...
that doesn't help our country in any way,
do this to help our country.
You know that man...
who saved me when I was little...
You're talking about that again.
Until when will you...
He was very arrogant and cocky.
A young kid asked if she could see his face,
but he was so stubborn.
He didn't even tell me his name.
He said this to me.
He told me not to be tormented even if I survive alone.
He told me to become stronger.
That advice...
supported and comforted me...
throughout my life.
Perhaps I can't meet or marry him.
But I really want to...
tell him how thankful I am.
Aren't you really...
the masked man who saved me?
Yul will be sad if he hears this.
But why do I keep feeling like...
you're lying?
And why does that lie...
keep making me sad?
Don't worry. You don't have to avoid me anymore.
I've completely given up.
But in our next lives...
If we're born again in liberated Joseon,
you should...
think of me as a girl, okay?
Don't hesitate...
or push me away.
Don't lie to me...
or suffer alone either.
Tell me everything...
honestly.
Promise me you'll do everything you didn't do for me in this life.
Why do you keep talking about our next lives?
Promise me one thing.
Come back alive by all means.
It's an order.
I'll keep the promise.
I'll go back alive by all means.
What are you doing here all alone?
How much painkiller did you give me? I almost couldn't get up.
Were you trying to kill me?
Hadn't I done that,
you would have dashed to the General Government with bombs.
Why didn't you let me?
Your youth is too precious for that.
I guess I'm useful enough for you to want me to stay alive.
As long as you behave yourself.
Hui Young.
Go ahead.
I think it's time for us to part ways.
What do you mean?
I'll remain in Kyungsung. You go to Manchuria with comrades.
You shouldn't.
Kyungsung is dangerous.
Flee to Manchuria for now.
- Come back here in... - Don't worry.
Since my father cooperated with Japan, I'll be safe.
So...
whatever I do from now on,
don't worry about me.
I'll survive by all means.
- Yul. - Also,
I'll give up on her in my next life.
But...
in this life, please let me save her.
It's nice to see you again.
How have you been?
Where is Su Hyeon right now?
Su Hyeon?
Do you mean Anastasia?
Don't try to act innocent.
Thanks to my father, I know some people in the General Government.
I see.
Then I'm sure you also understand...
we can't release a sniper of Joseon Youth Alliance so easily.
I'm sorry,
but money can't solve everything.
Then...
would you exchange her...
with the leader of Joseon Youth Alliance?
Boss.
What's the matter?
The leader of the Joseon Youth Alliance has been arrested.
What are you talking about?
To save Ms. Ryu, Mr. Shin must have...
made a false confession.
Don't worry.
Since my father cooperated with Japan, I'll be safe.
So...
whatever I do from now on,
don't worry about me.
I'll survive by all means.
It's a good thing. As long as they believe they got the leader,
they'll relax their vigilance. We should take the chance...
and escape Kyungsung now.
We don't have much time.
Mr. Shin's family will find a way to save him.
We should hurry while Mr. Shin is occupying them...
for our future plans.
If you're the leader of Joseon Youth Alliance,
you must know the members better than anyone else does.
You could even draw an organization chart right away.
As you might know,
the alliance is built upon secrecy and disguise.
Even though I'm the leader,
I don't know every member in the alliance.
You might not know all members in the lower ranks,
but if you don't know even the key members,
wouldn't that be absurd?
- If you are the leader, that is. - Sadly,
all key members...
killed themselves...
after the Hwanggeumjeong operation.
Is that so?
Bring her in.
Su Hyeon.
Who is he?
The owner of Carpe Diem.
Is he the alliance leader?
I said, I don't know who the leader is!
You're a sniper. You must have received orders from the leader!
Heo Young Min!
That's enough.
- Take her out. - Yes, sir.
Su Hyeon.
Don't tell him.
Never say his name.
Can you do that?
Will you hold out?
Answer me, Yul.
Su Hyeon.
Aren't you a citizen of Joseon?
Who is the alliance leader?
I said, I am the leader!
No, you aren't.
Do you know why?
The leader of Joseon Youth Alliance...
has never left any clue.
The leader of Joseon Youth Alliance...
would not be foolish enough to check his watch...
to see whether the bombs are about to go off.
He'd also never reveal his emotions...
as it'll end up being a weakness people can use against him.
Most of all,
he wouldn't do all this just for a woman, to save her life.
He'd never be dumb enough to walk into the General Government for it.
I was dumb too.
I admit it.
I set up the trap and threw the bait.
"Fall for the trap. Bite the bait."
I waited and finally caught you guys,
but something felt off.
That's when I realized it.
Right.
I thought, "This has been too easy."
"It's certainly different from the patterns..."
"which the leader of Joseon Youth Alliance has shown so far."
Answer me if you're following what I'm saying.
Who's your leader?
I already told you.
I'm the leader.
If you don't tell me,
your woman will die.
Don't worry.
We won't even lay a finger on you.
We can't mistreat someone from such an influential family.
I'm worried though.
Until you give me the answer,
Anastasia will be tortured in your place.
I'm not sure if she'll be able to hold out until then.
Mr. Shin's father is doing everything in his power...
in order to get him out of there,
but he keeps insisting...
that he's the leader of Joseon Youth Alliance,
so nothing his father is doing is working.
I have no idea why he's being so unreasonably stubborn.
All he has to do to get released is say no.
Have you heard anything about others...
who used to be at Carpe Diem?
Not really.
After the rumor spread that it was Joseon Youth Alliance's secret base,
everyone got scattered.
I heard the woman who was the madam...
went missing.
I also heard that the singer, Anastasia or whatever her name is,
was actually Joseon Youth Alliance's sniper.
Oh, is that right?
If that wench gives away the leader's name,
Mr. Shin will be released right away.
From what I heard, even the harsh torture isn't making her budge.
Gosh, what a stubborn wench.
You really don't get what I'm saying, do you?
You said you studied law at Kyungsung Imperial University.
We already drew the organization chart for you.
All you need to do is fill out the names.
Bring her in.
As always, we should see if she...
had a good night's sleep.
Anastasia, how are you holding up?
I want to stop torturing you as well,
but Yul here isn't cooperating.
It looks like you'll need to tolerate it a bit longer.
- Take her. - Yes, sir.
(Organizational Chart)
(Leader)
Are you writing an obituary right now?
The leader's name is still left blank,
and you've only filled out names of those who died at Hwanggeumjeong.
Bring her again!
It seems Anastasia finds it hard to keep going back and forth.
From now on, we'll...
do it right here in front of you.
Is she outside?
Please... Please...
Get up!
No, no!
No...
So write his name, you scum.
Is it that difficult to spell out his name?
You should not tell him.
You won't, right?
You'll stay strong, right?
Say it. Tell me who your leader is right now.
Tell me. I said, tell me right now.
All right. Let's see how much longer you can hold out.
Seo Hui Young!
Seo Hui Young.
Our leader...
The leader is...
Is everyone here?
- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.
Mr. Lee, did you look into what I asked you to find out?
As per your order,
I found a ship that is supposed to leave Port of Incheon in two days.
Mr. Kang.
I got fake identification documents made for all of us.
Have you all familiarized yourselves with your new identities?
- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.
Then we'll leave in 30 minutes.
Each person must take his designated route...
and arrive at Port of Incheon before the designated time.
We'll get ourselves organized there...
and head to Dalian.
Got it.
This place is no longer safe.
We must hurry.
Mr. Kang.
Spare me a second.
What did you just say?
I asked you to stand in for me...
and lead our comrades all the way to Manchuria.
What about you, Boss?
I'll stay in Kyungsung.
Boss.
There's something I must do here.
Staying in Kyungsung alone in this situation...
is too dangerous.
I'll join you guys...
after I finish what I have to do here.
Until then, please lead them on my behalf...
Are you going to save Mr. Shin and Mr. Ryu?
Please do it for me.
- We'll go with you. - Mr. Kang.
Both Mr. Shin and Mr. Ryu are our comrades too.
It's something I have to do.
If all of us move together now,
it'll be way too risky.
Why are you trying to bear all the burden alone?
No.
I'm actually trying...
to unburden myself from my responsibilities as the leader...
and be...
a normal...
friend to them at least for one day.
I'm trying to be a man.
I'll be sure to rescue them...
and join you all.
Until then,
please take good care of our comrades.
Live as a friend for just one day.
Live as a man for just one day.
Instead,
you must come back in one piece...
and bring the two of them with you.
- Let's go. - Let go of me.
I don't see Seo Hui Young anywhere.
Search everywhere in the vicinity!
It must be Hui Young. Get moving!
Yes, sir!
Mr. Kang.
Mr. Kang, Mr. Kang!
Get moving and carry out the final operation.
- Boss. - It's an order.
Hurry up!
Descend.
Get out of this mountain!
Over there.
What are you guys doing?
Chase him!
Get him!
I told you guys that you have to capture him alive.
I'm...
exhausted, Se Ju.
Move.
Don't block me, you jerk.
Get out of my way!
Hey, no!
No!
Let go.
No. No!
Let go. Let go!
Let go of me!
Mr. Han. Mr. Han!
Jin Oh... I'm not dead.
Are you all right?
What happened?
I think I just flew in the sky.
You were in a very dangerous situation.
I went into your body without your approval.
So the fact...
that I'm okay now...
means you successfully possessed my body.
It wasn't done perfectly,
but I did manage to save your life.
- Since when? - Pardon me?
When did you become capable of entering people's bodies?
It actually started today.
I guess we can call it a miracle.
Why do you keep flickering?
This isn't anything serious.
I think flaunting my tricks used up too much of my energy.
I'm totally fine though.
Now, you just need to find a way to become immortal.
Seol.
Seol...
Mr. Han.
Mr. Han, are you okay?
Jo Sang Mi kidnapped Seol.
I must go save her now.
Then you should go and save Seol.
I'll catch Baek Tae Min.
All right.
Who are you?
You...
What are you?
Get off while I'm still talking nicely to you.
It's time for you to pay for what you've done.
Yes, Ms. Kang.
Has Jo Sang Mi been caught?
Not yet.
It took a while to track her down as she has moved around a lot.
The police are on their way to catch her now.
Mr. Han, what's wrong?
Did something happen to you?
Ms. Kang.
Please listen carefully to what I'm going to say to you now.
Seol...
has been kidnapped by Jo Sang Mi.
Are you serious?
Please let the police know...
that arresting Jo Sang Mi shouldn't be their priority.
It's more important to...
Seol and keep her in one piece.
We must keep her safe.
I got that, sir.
Tell me the address. I'll head there right away.
- Mr. Gal. - Ms. Kang.
Jo Sang Mi kidnapped Seol.
What on earth are you talking about? Kidnap whom?
- Why would she kidnap Seol? - Is that true?
I'm pretty sure.
Mr. Han wants to make sure she's safe,
rather than to catch the culprit.
It's highly likely that she's locked up in the house.
In case Sang Mi figures out, just the two of us are going in.
The rest of you should watch if anyone escapes and wait here.
- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.
Don't worry. She's like a rat in the trap now.
Anyway, what takes so long for Se Ju to come here?
Jo Sang Mi, are you in there?
Jo Sang Mi, open the door! Jo Sang Mi!
Jo Sang Mi!
Is anybody there? Jo Sang Mi!
Break the door.
Are you all right?
Yes, I think so.
- Are you Jeon Seol? - Yes.
Could you tell me what's going on?
Do you know Jo Sang Cheol?
He's the stalker of Han Se Ju who killed himself.
Jo Sang Mi is that stalker's sister.
But why me?
It seems like she kidnapped you to take revenge on Se Ju.
Se Ju.
- Where is Seol? - Hey.
What's wrong with your face?
I asked where Seol is!
Are you sure you're all right?
I'm all right. I can walk alone.
You still look pale.
Mr. Han.
You're alive.
Thank goodness.
Of course, I am.
I won't die so easily.
By the way, you don't look well.
Did something happen?
What happened? Why are you bleeding?
I'm so relieved...
that I didn't come late this time.
- Mr. Han! - Se Ju!
- Call an ambulance! - Mr. Han!
- Somebody call an ambulance!
Se Ju.
Mr. Han.
Mr. Han. Wake up.
Mr. Han.
Soo Hyeon.
Yul.
I remember everything now.
Now I remember how we've become separated.
Get him!
I told you guys that you have to capture him alive.
I won't let myself be captured by you alive.
Don't you try to mess with me.
Your head belongs to me.
I would rather kill myself than...
disgrace Joseon Youth Alliance...
and myself by being captured by you.
You're here.
It must have been a tough journey.
It must have been tough...
waiting for me.
No.
I'm sorry to have let you deal with it all by yourself.
If it wasn't for you,
I'd have been dead already.
Because you saved my life,
I've lived at least 10 more years.
Otherwise, I'd have been dead already.
Su Hyeon.
Yes.
I love you.
I'm sorry I've been mean to you.
I'm sorry I've been ignoring...
your feelings towards me.
I won't do that in my next life.
I promise.
Why do you keep talking about the next life?
In my next life,
I will be the first to recognize you.
I'll come back.
No matter what,
I'll come back to meet you.
I won't be late then.
Are you leaving?
Don't go.
Don't go!
I missed you.
Su Hyeon.
(Chicago Typewriter)
I'm sorry I couldn't keep my word...
from my past life.
Are you sure you can handle...
whatever I tell you?
Why did you do that? Why?
Please kill me with your own hands.
- Jin Oh! - Mr. Yu!
Su Hyeon, it's not your fault.
Seo Hui Young and Shin Yul's novel might be finished,
but Han Se Ju and Yu Jin Oh's novel isn't finished yet.
