Doctor, was that you?
- My dad was murdered, wasn't he? - No.
Your father...
killed himself.
I'm searching for that child.
Do you know what my name is?
Back in the fall of 1993,
I was at Haesan Hospital as well.
I was a first-year intern in their ER.
I was the one who treated his burn.
Is Moo Young...
Sun Ho?
This is making me a little nervous.
What is your name?
Sun Ho.
My name is Kang Sun Ho.
Kang Sun Ho.
(Wonyoung Mart)
Moo Young wants to know about his past.
I'm still alive.
That was supposed to make you laugh.
Were you really trying to kill me?
It doesn't suit you.
You said killing a person makes you a murderer.
A terrible murderer.
That doesn't suit you.
(Episode 13)
Hello.
(Lieutenant Tak So Jung)
- He's here. - Is he?
Yes, I'm sure his resignation letter isn't accepted.
That's what I'm hoping.
Do you want another one?
What? Sure.
No, never mind.
I won't be able to have lunch if I eat any more of these.
Right? It makes me feel so full.
So I'll eat two of these and skip lunch.
Should I do that too?
How can you eat that...
when the project with Jang Se Ran isn't going well?
Are you sure you don't want another?
Of course I do.
It's pretty good.
What does the "Seon" in your name mean?
What?
Which Chinese character do you use for "Seon"?
It means kindness. Can't you tell?
That's great.
What are you talking about? It's so common.
Really?
Well, that makes it even better, since that suits you.
What's gotten into you?
Let's say you're dehired.
That way, you can get unemployment benefits.
This is the best I can offer you,
but do you find this unfair in any way?
No.
Thank you for everything.
Did you submit your letter of resignation?
No, I got fired even before I could.
- Yes? - You got fired?
Yes, they dehired me.
I was going to quit anyway, so this is fine.
He said they let me get away with as much as they could already.
That's true.
I'm getting out early today. Shall we meet up later?
What time are you getting out?
Sure.
Mount Geumah Mortar.
(Mount Geumah Mortar)
That's what everyone seems to call that cliff.
Kang Sun Ho.
Let's take a photo.
A photo?
To commemorate this moment.
- You really prepared for this. - I know, right?
Come here.
- Can I stand here? - Yes.
All right.
1, 2, 3.
1, 2, 3. Victory.
All done.
Do they look nice?
Yes.
They look great.
I'll send them to you too.
What are we commemorating though?
Your unemployment.
What?
You didn't even know that, you idiot?
Obviously, we're commemorating the fact...
that we found out your real name, Kang Sun Ho.
"Sun", meaning "kind" and "Ho", meaning "elevated".
I really like it.
Hey, who said my name uses those Chinese characters?
I don't know for sure yet. Stop making things up.
I'm not sure about "Ho",
but I'm pretty sure it includes "kindness".
I'm sure of it.
Why? I really like it. You don't like it?
Well, no, it's not like that.
It's just that this name still feels so foreign to me.
Names sure are interesting.
"Kim Moo Young"...
sounds a bit lonely,
but "Kang Sun Ho"...
sounds nice and brave.
- You like it that much? - Yes.
I like it so much.
I feel like your parents...
were really nice people.
Seeing as how they chose such a name for their son,
they are definitely nice people.
You think so?
Yes.
Did the doctor tell you about anything else beside your name?
Your father killed himself.
Not really.
I feel vicariously satisfied...
as if I'm the one who found my real name.
You can find yours too. Let's look for it together.
Later.
My brother will probably tell me when the time is right.
I'll wait until Jin Gook tells me.
(Kang Soon Goo)
What a shame. I wanted to see the foliage.
But all the leaves have dropped.
Yes, it's kind of spooky.
Still, this place is really nice. It's open and spacious.
I'm glad we took this path.
Yes, it's nice.
My father apparently committed suicide.
Apparently, it was in the mountains,
but I don't know much about it.
I don't know if the doctor is choosing to withhold information,
or if he really doesn't know and can't tell me much else.
At any rate,
it's been established...
that my family...
wasn't too happy of a family.
Your father...
already...
passed away, I see.
I'm planning to go to Haesan.
I want to go...
where my father was.
Where in Haesan is it?
Well, apparently there's a place called...
"Mount Geumah Mortar".
It's a cliff, I think. That's where he did it.
Want me to come with you?
All right.
Go and say hello to him.
Oh, right.
What should I say?
Hi?
I don't even know his name.
What should I say?
"Father."
That's all you need.
"Father, this is Sun Ho."
That will do.
It's here.
You go take the bus first.
Okay. It takes so much effort to date in secret.
We can't even take the same bus together, right?
Why does it make me anxious?
You're just going to say hello.
Why do I feel so anxious?
Don't be.
I'll be back soon.
Is Moo Young Sun Ho?
Yes.
Moo Young is Kang Sun Ho.
You little...
You punk.
You are not even human.
If you were a human...
If you were the least bit like one...
I've just been to your office.
- You want this? - You must be mistaken.
You can't become a police officer just because you're smart.
Police officers are for human, not for murderers like you.
He's such a pitiful guy.
He's grown up in a worse situation than me.
He's already gotten hurt enough already.
Why did he kill himself?
I don't know.
Do you think you can stop here if you were me?
I've never stopped anything which I've put my mind to.
What do you think is left more?
A gun.
I still...
dream about my father being murdered.
Everyone tells me to stop...
as if I'll never come back once I go there.
(Supermarket)
- Can I have a bottle of soju? - Okay.
It looks like a screen,
so I don't know why it's called a mortar.
I thought of bowing down, but it was too awkward that I decided not to.
I couldn't say "Father", either.
I'm not sad.
I feel like I'll have a nice dream if I sleep here like this.
Dad?
(Mount Geumah Mortar)
Yoon.
I think I came home.
(Mount Geumah Mortar, Haesan)
I think I really came back home.
Look at this.
You can barely see
A gun?
Yes. What Moo Young said has been bothering me.
Was a gun involved with his dad's death?
How was your trip?
(Yoo Jin Kang)
(Everyone tells me to stop.)
So it was really him?
I feel bad.
When I'm feeling this way, you must...
Are you okay?
Jin Kang said...
he'd been hurt by people like me.
People who are not afraid...
to hurt other people's children to protect their own.
How did things end up like this?
I was scared.
Moo Young is like a car with no brakes.
And Jin Kang wouldn't get out of it.
If I didn't force the car to stop, it could end up anywhere.
Just like Jin Kang said,
I hurt someone else's child to protect my own.
But I had no idea...
he was Sun Ho.
What are you going to do now?
He once said...
No. I said it first.
That nothing is for free.
Nothing in this world is for free.
You can never get away with anything.
Good. I hate free things.
I'm more of an "an eye for an eye" person.
That's right. Nothing in this world is for free.
If that's what he wants,
I'm okay with "an eye for an eye".
Manager Yoo.
Jin Gook.
- Oh, my. Who is this? - Come here.
Aren't you Ms. Yoo Jin Kang?
Jin Kang, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have let him drink so much.
- It's not your fault. - It's you.
You're so ugly. You must be Jin Kang.
Let's go in.
I'm sure you didn't make him drink. He must have just lost control.
What?
Gosh, I can't believe you.
Leave it. It's okay.
(Haesan Hospital)
Who is this chestnut?
Who is it?
- What's wrong? - Jin Gook.
- I'm sorry. - Don't worry.
You two really had a fight?
What happened to him?
Did he die?
Have we met before?
Not recently. Maybe a long time ago.
I don't think so.
Did you have a good trip?
Why are you so panting?
I pedaled really fast because I wanted to see you quickly.
Wait a minute.
You went to your house?
Yes.
The house you lived with your family when you were young?
Yes.
Where? How did you find it?
Just on my way passing by.
It was in the forest.
The forest?
Yes, it looked like a painting.
It's a lie.
What?
It's a lie.
There wasn't anything like a house.
I just thought there might be a house like that when I passed by.
What was that about?
I was happy for a bit thinking that you really found it.
Would it be good if I found it?
Of course.
It's where you lived with your family.
Sometimes when you go somewhere,
unexpected things come to your mind suddenly, right?
That's right.
Did you say hello to your dad?
Yes.
Your brother was a police officer at Haesan as well, right?
- Yes. - When did you move to Seoul?
It was the summer when I was seven years old.
It's the summer of 1996.
That was quick.
Why did you move to Seoul?
I'm not sure, but I think it was because of me.
I didn't adapt well at the kindergarten there,
and my mom passed away that spring.
I think we moved because of those reasons.
Why do you want to know about that now?
Police officers work in four shifts, right?
Yes, weekly rotation.
There are a lot of officers who are busy on their days off and holidays,
but my brother never allows that. He always takes those days off.
When is his day off?
He takes the 4th, 8th, and 12th off for this month.
He takes off the days of multiples of four.
He must be on his day shift today then.
Why are you suddenly curious about things like that?
Didn't I tell you?
I wanted to become a police officer when I was young.
That's why I'm really interested in affairs related to the police.
Right. That's why you think your father could have been one.
Yes.
What made you want to suddenly work out in the morning?
I was wondering where you went so early in the morning.
I won't be able to go when it gets colder. I'll work out every day.
Why? Do you also want to work out?
No way.
There are bird droppings here.
Gosh, this is so annoying.
Wake up, Sleepyhead.
Wake up. Wake up!
Are we there already?
- We're not there. - Just go quickly.
Get out quickly! The bus came.
- Get out quickly! - Okay.
Don't forget the movie at 6pm later, okay?
(Missing Child)
(Kang Sun Ho, 5 years old, Male)
Kim Moo Young.
- Kim Moo Young? - Yes.
Should I let him in?
No.
The director is busy today.
I'll come back next time.
You know my number, right?
Call me after you set up a date.
He's too impudent for me to meet with right away.
If it's all right with you...
I think she may have some free time.
In two hours.
Mr. Kim Moo Young is coming in.
- Hello. - Take a seat.
What brings you here?
I have a favor to ask.
A favor? What is it?
I need a gun.
Can you get me one?
A gun?
A gun.
I thought long and hard for two hours...
about why you came to see me.
Maybe it was harder to deal with prosecutor's investigation.
Or maybe you regretted turning down my offer.
But you're here for a gun?
So that's the kind of reason you need to come see me.
But too bad. That's a pretty difficult request.
What will you do for me in return for that difficult favor?
Anything.
(Missing Child)
What is this?
I want to know about that child.
About who made this, and why they were searching for him.
And what kind of people his parents were.
"Kang Sun Ho".
Who is he?
How refreshing.
I feel so much better.
It really is refreshing.
How kind of you to help me get over my hangover like this.
- It was worth raising me, right? - Yes.
Totally, even though I didn't even do anything.
So Jung.
Yes?
What do you think about Jin Gook?
What do you mean by that?
I mean as a potential boyfriend. What do you think about him?
A boyfriend?
Boyfriend? Come on.
Hey, come on. "Boyfriend"?
That's so ridiculous.
Really?
It is, right?
I guess you're right.
You're too good for him.
Hey, what do you mean? I'm a divorcee.
And Jin Gook is a really nice guy...
I heard that this movie is really funny.
Gosh, I'm so lucky.
You helped me get over my hangover, and you're treating me to a movie.
Oh no.
- I'm so sorry, So Jung. - What is it?
I left something at work.
Goodness, that's terrible.
I'll be fine, so you should go. It's fine, go ahead.
How about you watch it with him?
Come on, Jin Kang.
I know I wasn't too subtle about it,
but have a good time.
Your sister is terrible at being subtle.
Let's go.
Come on, smile a little.
Come on, smile. Smile.
Where are you?
- You're home. - Yes.
- You fixed it. - I did?
All I did was clean the dust a little and wound up the spring.
Really?
Where did you get it?
I picked it up.
- You did? - Yes, at Haesan.
What about its arm?
It's gone.
It's gone?
Yes.
It didn't have one from the start.
That must be why it was abandoned.
Because it's missing an arm.
I'm going to wash my hands.
I see.
So that's why it was abandoned.
By the way, where were you?
I texted you earlier.
I went somewhere for a bit.
I told you to smile. Smile.
- Smile. Smile. - That hurts.
What do you mean, it hurts? I'm doing this so that you smile.
Smile. Smile.
- You finally smiled. - Hey, we're here.
- Hello. - Two tickets.
What?
You didn't even turn off the faucet, and you didn't hear me at all.
What were you thinking so deeply about?
Well?
What were you thinking about?
You're just you.
What?
No matter what happens,
you are...
just you to me.
What are you talking about?
What do you mean, I'm just me?
Nothing. I just wanted to let you know.
Looks like Jin Kang's efforts were in vain.
You have no idea what the movie was about, do you?
What?
What are you talking about? That movie was really funny.
You didn't laugh even once, though.
Did I? I thought I laughed.
It's okay to space out.
Let's just take a walk.
It's really okay, so go ahead.
Space out all you want.
Earlier this morning,
he visited my house.
What do you mean?
After Jin Kang and I went to work, he sneaked in somehow.
That's housebreaking.
You're right.
This isn't funny.
- So what happened? - Well...
I'm just saying he did.
What...
I get to see a gun thanks to you.
What do you think?
I was surprised that it looked cooler than expected.
I think a gun is beautiful because it's dangerous.
Doesn't it remind you of someone?
Have a seat.
What are you going to do with it?
Are you going to kill someone for real?
What are you going to do with it?
Are you going to kill someone for real?
Goodness.
If you kill someone with it,
I'll be in trouble too. You know that, right?
I won't say that you got it for me.
I guess you really are going to kill someone.
Aren't you curious why I'm risking myself for you?
I am.
Because I want you.
As if you're in my pocket, I want full control over you.
I've fallen for you, Moo Young.
"Don't get caught." You remember that?
Don't get caught.
I heard about the accident...
and wondered what in the world happened.
I watched the dash cam footage of Seung Ah's car.
I didn't understand what you said at first.
I replayed for around 10 times,
and I was able to hear it.
"Don't get caught."
I was so thrilled that I almost went crazy.
I couldn't believe there was someone like me in this world.
I'm like you?
I told you. We're similar.
We're like different branches from the same root.
I'll give it some thought.
Thanks for the gun.
Aren't you going to take more bullets?
This is enough.
Who's this kid?
(Missing Child)
I'm getting confused...
whether I should be angry or not.
This kid has something to do with your girlfriend.
My girlfriend?
Yoo Jin Kang.
Isn't that why you asked me to look into him?
Because Jin Kang's brother was looking for this kid.
(Kang Sun Ho)
Detective Yoo Jin Gook was looking for this kid?
Yes.
You really didn't know?
(Yoo Jin Kang)
(Seoul Life-time Bankbook)
(KG Life-time Bankbook, Seoul Life-time Bankbook)
Why did he look for me?
You?
This is me. Kang Sun Ho.
(Kang Sun Ho)
You should've said so from the start.
He has a different number now,
but the owner of this phone number was Yoo Jin Gook until June, 1996.
I lost my appetite when I heard it.
I thought you made me do something for your girlfriend.
(Missing Child)
I don't know my father's name.
I heard he killed himself at Mount Geumah Mortar in 1993.
But I don't think it's true.
I think he was murdered.
He's your father, but you don't know his name.
People say he killed himself but you think he got murdered?
Okay, I'll look into it. It won't take long.
Your eyes are telling me that you've finally realized my value.
This much is a piece of cake for me.
Then let me ask you for one more favor. I'm looking for my family.
Your family?
My mom and brother.
A younger brother.
He's probably 2 to 3 years younger than me.
Yoon.
It's not for certain, but his name might be Kang Yoon.
Kang Yoon.
So you want to find your younger brother?
Why?
I mean... Of course, you've got to find your mom.
She might be really rich or something.
But your brother?
Isn't it better not to have a brother?
Isn't it great you lost him? Why would you look for him?
But I want to.
I guess we aren't as similar as you think we are.
Thanks in advance.
(So Jung)
(Kim Moo Young)
What time do you leave work today?
Around 10pm at the earliest.
But I'll probably finish past midnight.
I'll just see you tomorrow morning.
Okay.
You're here.
(Based on "Hundred Million Stars Falling from the Sky", Fuji TV)
(The Smile Has Left Your Eyes)
Yes, I killed him. Your dad, Kang Soon Goo.
I thought you were a police officer, but you're a murderer?
You destroyed my childhood.
People like you disgust me.
What brings you here at this hour?
I came to return this. I used one of the bullets.
Your anger will wound you.
It'll damage you and hurt the people who love you.
I hope everything will hold onto you and never let go of you...
so you can't go anywhere.
Even if I lose everything, no matter how far away I end up,
I'll come back...
to you.
