WHEN THE CAMELLIA BLOOMS
ONGSAN RICE SHOP
What's going on?
Let's go.
Are you guys dating?
They're dating?
Are we dating?
Are we dating now?
CAMELLIA
Jong-ryeol, did you take my lighter...
I took it.
These days, you can't smoke in bars.
Well, I guess I missed the right timing to leave.
-I missed the right timing. -You sure did.
Dongbaek, you're one busy lady.
You have to look after your son, date, and run your bar.
She runs a bar?
Will you be able to pay your rent for Camellia on time?
Well...
I'm really sorry I'm going back on my word so quickly,
but...
I don't think I can be friends with you.
I'm not okay with just being your friend.
The bomber is ready to take off,
and there's no such thing as a secret.
THE MUTT'S STRATEGY
EPISODE 5
Especially in this small town, Ongsan.
They were holding hands, so they've gone all the way.
I wonder where they were coming from that late.
Gosh, Ms. Kwak was always so protective of Dongbaek.
I guess Dongbaek will be her daughter-in-law.
She told me he's dating a lawyer.
INTERSECTION RICE CAKE
You look prettier today.
Oh, my. Look at your bangs. It looks like you styled them today.
My gosh, you look great today.
I didn't get much sleep last night, so I look tired today.
Really?
-What happened? You need to sleep well. -Oh, dear.
-Dongbaek. -Does this even make sense to you?
-What? -Why would he date a single mother?
What? I'm talking about this TV show.
-Oh, right. -That TV show.
-Yes. -I mean, is it even possible?
Either the guy has some serious flaw, or the girl has the wrong idea.
-You're right. -It's just a TV show, you know?
I'd like a pack of injeolmi.
There's no need to buy that just because you feel bad.
I'll have a word with Hyang-mi.
I'll tell her to pay the million won back soon...
Have a word with her? What she needs is a good slap.
Dongbaek...
-What's with you today? -Darn it.
-Are they bullying her again? -You don't have any money on you?
I'm off. I'll talk to Hyang-mi when I get home.
Dongbaek!
-Are you running away or what? -Why would I?
Then why are you walking so fast?
Wait, stop. Don't follow me, please.
Why are you following me again?
Well, shouldn't we talk about the hand incident last night... My gosh.
I mean, shouldn't we talk about what happened last night?
My gosh.
You see, I couldn't sleep a wink last night because of this hand.
I kept asking myself, "Why did Dongbaek hold my hand?"
Stop talking about your hand, will you?
"What could it mean?"
I kept racking my brain, trying to figure out what it could mean.
By any chance, does it mean...
Does it mean we can hold hands whenever we want from now on?
POLICE
Let's go somewhere quiet and talk.
"Somewhere quiet"?
If anyone saw us now, they'd think a cop is about to get robbed or something.
Why did you bring me to this deserted alley?
-I'm sorry. -What?
I made a mistake.
I can't explain everything,
but I was in a bit of a situation last night.
It was urgent, so I did it without thinking...
Right, I understand.
You see, when you hold someone's hand,
it's always done impulsively.
I think mankind was able to prosper
because men and women were impulsive.
If you try to calculate everything... Gosh, it just makes you look petty.
In the end, whether you use your brain or not...
Whether you go this way or that way, it doesn't matter.
What are you talking about?
You can win someone's heart
in just three seconds.
I realized it in three seconds the moment I first saw you
at the bookstore.
But I never intended that to happen.
Plus, you don't even know much about me.
I simply fell in love at first sight.
My gosh.
I'm not the type to plan or calculate the push and pull in a relationship.
"I should just go for it if she's not married."
I've made up my mind.
What are you talking about?
How could you be so reckless--
Sure, we should all be careful and cautious, but I think
it's more important to give your 100 percent.
If I keep testing the waters,
you, Diana of Ongsan,
will walk away from me.
When you're sure about something, you have to go for it.
Why are you calling me "Diana"?
This guy isn't just straightforward. He doesn't hold back at all.
Oh, gosh.
We shouldn't be talking about this in front of this "No Pee Zone."
Well, how about we go for some pork cutlet later?
Pork cutlet? Why?
Do you want to profess your love to me?
Dongbaek, you can be quite blunt at times.
Yong-sik.
Yes.
I'll have to reject you in advance.
There it is.
-It's 18kg. -Okay, 18kg.
-Nice. -Give it to me.
Gosh, they're so nice and fresh.
By the way, do you think Ms. Kwak knows about this?
-If she knew, she would've thrown a fit. -Why?
Dongbaek and Ms. Kwak are really close.
They may have been close, but the situation is different now.
Dongbaek was just a pitiful neighbor to her.
But things would be different if she's dating her son.
I guess you're right.
Even the kindest woman would go nuts if her son falls for a single mother.
Once Deok-sun finds out, all hell will break loose.
Who gave you permission to call me by my first name?
-Hello. -Hi.
No, don't get me wrong.
We were just talking about when your son will get married.
Watch what you tell her. All hell will break loose.
He'll get married when he wants to.
If you cause a fuss, you'll only end up ruining things.
I'm just going to wait and see how things turn out.
Then what kind of girl do you want as your daughter-in-law?
We're not living in the middle ages. That kind of stuff isn't important.
It's about how much they love each other.
I'm not the kind of person to be fussy about my daughter-in-law.
That's a very old-fashioned mindset.
Wait, come on.
It's not fair to just reject me in advance like that.
You should at least tell me why you don't like me.
Then I'll fix whatever that is or decide to give up on you.
Let's make him give up on me.
Life isn't like a drama you see on TV.
Single mothers also have standards.
Just because I'm a single mother doesn't mean I'm okay with anyone
that likes me.
Most importantly, you're really not my type.
Well, then tell me your type. I'll become that kind of person.
Gong Yoo.
I like bad boys.
But
you look like the type
who'll easily lend money to others.
I like guys who are kind of cold.
They need to be witty and refined.
I like guys who are sensitive and are hard to get.
You know what I mean, right?
Why isn't he saying anything?
How can a human being beat a goblin?
I can't beat a goblin.
What?
Well...
I need to patrol the neighborhood now.
Patrol? All of a sudden?
Was I too mean?
He's making me feel uneasy.
Why did he stop?
-Dongbaek! -My gosh.
I... Well...
A mutt is the cutest type of dog!
And it's the little things that grow on you without you knowing.
Me?
Just don't regret this later on and start following me around.
What was that? Was that a declaration of war, or a love confession?
My gosh.
-Is it hot? -No.
You look like you were in front of a fire or something.
Me?
Hyang-mi.
Why did you
borrow money from the rice cake owner's husband?
That's personal.
Why do you go around borrowing money from people?
What about your monthly pay?
You're talking as if I get paid tens of millions of won.
Let's pay him back first.
I don't have any money to pay him back.
I'll pay you in advance.
Why would you do that for a part-timer?
She still has a long way to go before she grows up.
What's his bank account number?
A place where you can have fun!
You must have some money.
3 DAYS IN QINGDAO
I don't have any money at all.
Don't make things worse by causing trouble.
Don't make things worse by being so cold to me.
My mom doesn't even visit that often.
She only comes two to three times a week.
Why can't you be nice?
I heard you left the bar without paying 8,000 won
and got your wallet confiscated by a constable.
Didn't you have 8,000 won?
Well, the thing is...
We have a newbie at the precinct station.
I organized a gathering to welcome him, but we ended up getting into an argument.
So what?
Are you going to sue him?
It's not about the lawsuit. It's about my authority.
-Are you sure it's not about illicit love? -What?
You got this eye cream from a buy one and get one free event.
If you buy one that's 100ml,
you get this one that's 20ml.
What? A hundred milliliter?
Honey.
Don't sue him.
You can go around embarrassing yourself.
But don't humiliate me.
The least you can do for me is to help me protect my pride.
Why do you even live with me?
ONGSAN ARTS CENTER
Ms. Hong.
Camellia was part of the old contract, so it won't get protected anymore, right?
-What? -Camellia.
The bar that you guys leased out at the market.
I think I've heard of it.
I noticed that the contract there is going to end soon.
-Are you going to renew it? -My husband will deal with it.
But shouldn't you get involved if they decide to renew the deal?
My husband will take care of it.
You should take a look at your neighbor and see how she's doing.
My husband will take care of it.
It'd be great if he takes care of it properly.
-But I'm not sure if he will. -Exactly.
Mr. No practically lives there.
Why would you say that? He goes there three to four times a week.
My husband didn't lend a million won to someone
because he's the only fool
-in the neighborhood. -Right.
I heard Mr. No is the only one who buys hard liquor there.
If he didn't like her at all,
why would he spend money there and let her earn so much?
My goodness.
Mr. No may have gotten the lowest grades back when he was in high school,
but I'm sure his brain still works fine.
There's no way he'd cheat on his sexy wife
with that single mother who runs a damn bar.
She stands no chance against Ms. Hong.
I'm just saying she should keep an eye on her husband.
-Of course. -This isn't just your problem, you know.
You're right.
If a guy is determined to cheat,
he'll cheat no matter what you do.
-What? -You can try everything
starting from tracking his location to tracing his credit card,
but he'll still cheat if he wants to.
If he's not that type of guy, he won't.
My husband will never cheat on me even if Dongbaek comes onto him.
I'll be off now.
Okay, go ahead.
Gosh, it's always impressive to see a woman drive.
She really is a magnanimous woman.
It must be hard for Gyu-tae to meet her standards.
Magnanimous, my ass. She's intimidated.
Really?
She's totally intimidated.
She says she doesn't know Camellia.
But she knew Dongbaek's name.
You can't stop just because it's a yellow light.
I knew it. You're a woman, aren't you?
If you have free time, just go home and take a nap.
What is a woman doing outside driving a car?
You should fucking get married and just cook for your husband.
Why would you drive a car?
What... What's that finger supposed to mean?
I'm married already.
-What? -I'm married.
Don't be so nervous.
Just look at the camera and speak comfortably.
Do I begin?
The biggest thing that confused the investigation
was that the victims didn't have a common ground.
The first victim was a prostitute.
So we thought it'd be a sex crime, but it wasn't.
Then we thought maybe he just had a strong hatred toward women,
but the next victim was a man.
The jjajangmyeon delivery guy?
Yes.
And in 15 days, the president of an apartment residents' society got murdered.
The fourth victim was a boy who was in sixth grade.
And the last victim was a skin therapist.
The victims all had nothing in common.
But we always found the same memo written in the same handwriting.
PLEASE DON'T BE A JOKE
-Here you go. -Thank you.
The memos always had the same handwriting,
and he always finished off with three dots at the end.
It's like he wanted us to know that it was him.
Everyone in the country knows about the memo.
Is there anything new?
Like what?
I heard there was a survivor at the scene of the accident
when the skin therapist got murdered.
No one really raised an issue about that.
Can we meet that person?
We'll protect that person's identity and offer big compensation.
That person was a witness, not a survivor. And don't dig into that.
Wait a minute. There was a witness?
No!
When are you going to fix the sink?
Heung-sik will come by soon.
Is there something in there?
By the way...
Are they really dating?
You don't date just because you hold hands.
Then why were they holding hands?
The constable obviously likes Dongbaek.
So they held hands?
It's probably a one-sided thing. He's really not her type.
Then why did she hold his hand?
Stop causing a fuss. What's the big deal about holding hands?
If it's not a big deal, why won't she hold my hand?
So let me get this straight. She doesn't mind him holding her hand,
but she totally pushed mine away?
You're always telling her to drink and give you free peanuts.
You annoy her.
Hey, I'm the only guy who buys hard liquor at this shabby bar.
Why can't she give me free peanuts?
She's the annoying one.
She never offers her customer a free bowl of peanuts.
-She does. -What?
She does offer free peanuts. She just doesn't give them to you.
She gave some to Yong-sik.
She also gives canned peaches to Heung-sik and Seung-yeop.
They only order soju, but she still gives them stuff for free.
Are you saying I'm the only one who never got free peanuts?
This is eye cream.
She discriminated me with peanuts?
-Is it for Dongbaek? -Why would I give her that?
Then why did you bring it here? It's Chadel.
Why do you have a limited edition?
Why do you carry around a 100ml eye cream?
What? Do you want it? You can keep it.
-Really? -It's nothing expensive.
I bought it at a duty-free shop because they gave away free samples.
But I can't really give it to my wife now.
I got lucky today.
I can't believe I got eye cream from a guy like you.
-A guy like me? -You're on a different level.
A different level?
You're a landlord, you're smart,
you're the future governor, and you have a lot of hair.
You're one of the best guys in Ongsan.
That's complete nonsense. My wife and Dongbaek all look down on me.
I respect you.
What?
What did you just say?
"Respect"?
I wonder why that word moved my heart.
This much probably costs about 2,000 won.
Thanks to you, I got to slab money on my eyes.
I've never had a woman tell me that she respects me.
My gosh.
We're not open yet.
They're not open yet.
Do you live here?
Call everyone you know at Ongsan Police Station
so we can find the witness.
He told us not to dig into that.
Unanswered Questions is going to do a cover on the Joker.
Ongsan is finally getting attention.
We should strike the iron while it's hot.
The Joker didn't even get caught.
Wouldn't it be dangerous to reveal the witness?
The headline should say "The One and Only Survivor"
rather than "The One and Only Witness."
-But it's a witness. -Gosh.
Who knows if the Joker had initially planned to kill that person?
And isn't it weird that he let one person escape from the scene alive?
-What are you doing here? -What?
Shouldn't you be at work?
-What? -Did you do something wrong?
Why are you so intimidated?
I'm not intimidated.
But you showed up so unexpectedly--
Can't I take a look at my building?
Your building?
Didn't we register this building under both our names?
We agreed to do that because you earn less than I do.
It wasn't exactly because of how much I earn...
Why don't you kick them out of the building?
-What? -Kick them out.
Why?
It just bothers me.
Who? I mean, what?
Everything.
It's filthy.
But it's not easy to just tell them to leave. They're doing business here.
So you can't do it?
You're not going to do it?
Why are you getting involved in my business?
I was always in charge of handling the tenants.
You're refusing to kick them out?
I'll deal with it myself.
As the decision-maker of the family--
Okay, fine. Just leave it for now, then.
"For now"?
Judging by your behavior,
it seems like this building will soon become mine.
My hunch tells me that the Joker is still here.
Marinated crabs for lunch?
It's been exactly five years now.
And the world is starting to give him attention,
so he's probably getting all excited again.
Jerks like him tend to be attention-seekers.
I'll call and make a reservation.
Is your mom never going to give us a discount? You're her son.
Never in her life. She even makes me pay for beverages.
What about lunch discounts?
You should suggest that to her.
If you think about it,
the market price for marinated crabs don't go down during lunchtime.
He's taking his mother's side.
Since my mom doesn't give us discounts for lunch...
I have to say, the best dish you can have with rice
is stir-fried pork, not marinated crabs.
If there's a fight between stir-fried pork and marinated crabs...
What?
Dongbaek, did you have to cook rice because of us?
Rice doesn't take that long to cook.
Dongbaek, why don't you use this chance to start selling lunch?
If you do business at night, it's a bar.
But if you sell lunch, it becomes a restaurant.
I'll take care of my own business.
You little punk. Look at you.
-What? -You fell for her, didn't you?
My hunch is always right.
Why don't you use your hunch to investigate instead of using it now?
Hey.
-What? -You like Hyang-mi, don't you?
Hey, come on. Look at me in the eyes.
You can't fool me.
Sir, just eat your food.
I was wondering why you opened so early today.
But I guess it's because you have a special guest.
My goodness.
Look at that. Why did you nail wood up there?
My gosh, why would you do this?
-Where exactly? -Goodness.
Why are you taking photos of that?
You need to fix the sink with your own money.
You're the one who broke it, so it's only right that you pay for it.
-Of course. -Right.
Oh, gosh.
Look at the broken tiles.
The tenant needs to fix everything back to how it was.
This was like this before I came here.
Heung-sik, take a look at the tiles.
Okay.
My gosh, this is really expensive. How could you ruin this?
-It's really pricey. -I found something in the sink...
Heung-sik, do you want some multi-grain shake?
I can't believe you totally ruined this wall.
I really loved this wall.
I can't even use this as a warehouse anymore.
You ruined the wall and destroyed the tiles.
My goodness, you even nailed something on the wall.
If you sign a deal with the wrong tenant,
you end up ruining the entire building.
Chief, from what I heard,
this place used to be a really filthy warehouse for dried fish.
I mean, how could the landlord not even build a window for her?
That's not a window. Sunlight doesn't come through.
This is all because the landlord has a bad character.
I've been such a kind landlord until now.
Wait a minute. Does the contract end in December?
Chief, I noticed that some people
still don't know the Lease Protection Act.
We should arrest all of them to teach them
that it's a sin to be dumb.
I didn't know thieves had any interest for the law.
Dongbaek, you should pick the right person to side with.
If you hang around with a criminal, you'll offend the landlord.
Chief, you know how harsh the world can be nowadays, right?
If you abuse your power, you could lose everything.
My gosh, look at that wall. What a complete mess.
I want you to restore the wall today.
Today? How? Where am I going to find the right person to do that?
Dongbaek, don't worry.
There's a paperhanger right here.
Who?
Hwang Yong-sik.
You see, I'm a paperhanger with an international certificate.
Hey, stop being so ridiculous.
Just take care of Yeong-sim's dog problem first.
Okay, I will.
I'll paint all the walls here tonight.
This place is so damn tiny.
It'll only take me about two to three hours.
I'm guessing you at least own a place that's this damn tiny.
Heung-sik, you have extra paint at your store, right?
Yes.
I'm planning to erase all the scribbles
on the wall tonight.
Do you have the right color?
Well...
Heung-sik, you should eat before you go.
I made a lot of rice.
No, I'll just eat with my father--
Hey!
Why aren't you offering me any food?
If you made so much rice, why aren't you offering me any?
Why?
I'll pay you for this.
What?
My goodness.
Come on, there's no need.
-Why not? -What?
I'm going to pay you.
Okay, fine. Go ahead.
This place stinks of paint. You should wait over there.
Why does he get intimidated by everything I say?
He's a grown man, but he acts like Pil-gu.
Then why are you going to give him a multi-grain shake?
Look at him. He's working so hard to paint the walls.
He's covered in sweat right now.
Pil-gu also sweats a lot.
Why is a grown man acting exactly like Pil-gu?
-You're being weird. -What do you mean?
You act so irritated in front of him for some reason.
-I do? -You're really blunt to him, too.
I never saw you talk like that to anyone. You're always so quiet.
Really?
Do you think I'm being too mean to him?
I guess you find him easy.
What are you talking about? He's just...
She's so difficult.
She's such a difficult woman.
I don't find him easy. It's just that...
You find him comfortable.
When things feel easy with someone, they get comfortable, then heartrending,
and then it becomes awfully romantic.
No way.
Do you think I'm too harsh on him?
Just keep treating him that way.
What?
Do you know the kind of women that men love the most?
The ones that hate them.
Hey, you had some beer again, didn't you?
These idiots don't get how precious a woman is when she likes them,
but they go head over heels for women who hate them.
Hey, you need to stop drinking during the day. Okay?
So I'm telling you to continue to turn him down.
Why would anyone mention
something about her legs on this public wall?
Darn it.
Wait, we need to find this jerk who mentioned her legs here.
We need to track him down.
This guy has dangerous ideas.
I should keep track of these handwritings
of the men who mention her legs...
Wait.
DONGBAEK, YOU ALSO NEED TO STOP BEING A JOKE
EPISODE 6 WILL AIR SHORTLY
WHEN THE CAMELLIA BLOOMS
DONGBAEK, YOU ALSO NEED TO STOP BEING A JOKE
That psycho left a message whenever he killed someone.
It said, "Don't be a joke."
The memos always had the same handwriting,
and he always finished off with three dots at the end.
DONGBAEK, YOU ALSO NEED TO STOP BEING A JOKE
EPISODE 6
The multi-grain shake is free.
It's not just for you.
I give it to Heung-sik
when he comes to fix the sink, and I give it to the internet cable guy, too.
Why? Do you want me to charge you?
Well...
Wait, Dongbaek.
How long has it been since you came here?
Why?
Six years. It has been exactly six years, hasn't it?
My goodness.
Why did you suddenly barge in like that?
Did you come to rob...
What happened to you?
That thing. Where's the case file?
-What file? -For that guy, Joker.
What's with you? You're making me nervous.
KARAOKE ROOM MURDER CASE FILE JOKER'S FIRST CASE
Joker started killing people six years ago, didn't he?
What about him? Did you see him somewhere?
Why did you see Joker
instead of Yeong-sim's dog?
YOU ALSO NEED TO STOP BEING A JOKE
When you got arrested at 17 after beating up a bank robber,
if only I hadn't found you so interesting,
I wouldn't be living my later life with such anxiety.
I get really anxious whenever you pant and flare your nostrils.
Why? What is it?
Well...
I took this picture somewhere,
and the handwriting looks so similar.
-Of course, it does. -What?
Back then, we got 200 reports a day regarding Joker.
Joker's message was written on walls all over the country
and it was even found on the stone sign of Mount Jiri's Cheonwang Peak.
And they all seemed like it was written by Joker.
The handwriting was exactly the same.
Right?
You can copy the handwriting from the pictures you see in newspapers.
YOU ALSO NEED TO STOP BEING A JOKE
Hey.
Was this at Dongbaek's place?
Did...
Did you see this there?
Why? Why did you stop mixing your instant noodles?
Is it that strange for it to be there?
Why? What is it?
Why are you running away, leaving your noodles behind?
I'm not running away. I have to go home to watch a drama.
Wait.
Is there a connection between Dongbaek and Joker?
No. Never.
Exactly, so why? What? What about Joker?
I can dig up this case if I want...
You idiot.
Just sit still.
You'll be more help to her that way.
Yes, so why?
No idea. I don't know anything.
Goodness.
You... Damn it.
Why? Did someone comment that Kang Jong-ryeol is done and over with?
ONGSAN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
Man, why is he the only one without a dad?
This is driving me insane.
What am I supposed to do?
Hey, man. Well...
This isn't my story. It's about a friend of mine.
If your first love suddenly appeared...
Why? Did you meet Dongbaek?
-Gosh. -Goodness, that darned Dongbaek.
"Dongbaek!"
-"Dongbaek!" -"Dongbaek!"
I don't know his wife's name, but I know Dongbaek.
Wait, how do you all know her?
You need to quit drinking.
You might end up screaming out for her in front of your wife.
You idiot.
So who is this Dongbaek?
Is she awfully pretty?
No...
She is the worst
among all the women I have dated.
The worst.
Hey, they're all prettier, smarter,
and richer than Dongbaek.
And at times, some were even nice.
Is this about Dongbaek again? Put him to sleep.
But do you know what the problem is?
-What is it? -What?
Yes, you're right. Over there.
Yes. Sir, if you take a left at the intersection, we're right there.
-I'm telling you. This is the problem. -Okay.
The girl who's prettier than Dongbaek
isn't Dongbaek.
What I mean is...
It's just that none of them are
Dongbaek.
Darn it. I have no idea what kind of a damned situation this is.
Hey, if you suddenly meet her again,
what are you going to do?
Crazy idiot.
He loves his kid. He wouldn't break his family.
Forget about his wife. Doing that to his kid would be a huge sin. Okay?
BAEKDU GRANDMA MARINATED CRAB
Mom, about Joker.
You should cut your hair right here.
And try using some cologne, too.
Do you scrub your body from time to time?
How many people died back in 2013?
Yong-sik. You aren't so bad.
-What's with you? -You may be a bit out of style
and you aren't exactly the gentle and pretty type that women like
since you look like a big toe, but still...
Are you trying to pick a fight? How can you say I look like a big toe?
But you're likable. A likable guy.
So keep up your spirits.
-What are you saying? -Baekdu.
You have to come. The rice cooker is about to blow up again.
That little... Do you honestly have no idea how to speak politely?
-Do you want to order? -Sure.
NOW SERVING LUNCH
Well, what should we order?
We have killer stir-fried pork.
Oh, stir-fried pork.
But
it is a bit discourteous for a woman to come to such a bar, isn't it?
What? What do you mean, "such a bar"?
I plucked up some courage knowing that it's not great manners.
You're the witness, aren't you?
I know that you didn't want to be made known.
-But for a bigger cause... -Please leave.
-Pardon? -I'm sorry, but please leave.
Go home right away after the academy.
I'll be home early too, okay?
Should I stay with you?
No, I can beat them on my own.
Go.
I told you, right?
If they try to do something, punch their nose. It's the nose.
-Okay. -He looks like a smart boy.
I'll hit their nose. You just stay away from the arcade.
Go.
Make sure you get off work early.
Okay.
My goodness. You surprised me.
Hey, Pil-gu.
What? What is it? Do you want some marinated crabs?
Or do you want to play a game at the arcade?
Hey, you're looking great today.
You're on our side, aren't you?
What?
You're one of the two people who are on our side in this town.
And you're a policeman, so you need to take the outcast's side.
Right?
The outcast?
My mom is the nicest person in this town, but she's an outcast.
Something just happened which made me really concerned,
but I have to go to the academy.
So I want to ask you for a favor.
I am making an official move right now
since her immediate family officially asked this guy, Hwang Yong-sik.
I'm not sure who told you what,
but I have no idea. That's not me.
I understand that it can be uncomfortable to bring it up again after five years.
Hey!
I need to talk to you, okay?
Goodness. It's you.
What brings you here?
Did Chief Byeon send you here
in case we found out about her?
-What? -Excuse me, please just leave.
I understand that you're worried,
but we'll make sure we provide protection.
-No, I... -What? Protection from what?
Please don't say another word and go.
We're definitely thinking about giving you compensation, so...
Please just leave, will you?
It's so tough to get an interview from a witness.
We wouldn't come asking you if we had another witness.
You're the only witness.
Shouldn't you do something for the greater cause?
We'll take responsibility and protect you.
How?
How are you going to protect me?
Did you get my permission to visit me here today?
Did you at least give me a call?
You already came without notice
to ask questions without manners.
How can you protect me?
Excuse me.
Hey, man.
There's a kid inside. Put that away.
Why did you call the forensics?
To check if there's the same fingerprint as the one found at the crime scene.
The culprit may have visited the place beforehand.
My goodness.
She's already deemed as a victim.
Did Joker make an announcement that Dongbaek is next? Did he?
According to a police source,
the culprit's target may be female prostitutes.
July 9th, on the day of his first crime,
he used a fire extinguisher at the scene,
but during this crime, he activated the sprinkler.
Investigators suppose
that he did this to destroy the evidence,
but the real reason is yet to be revealed.
Next up is local news.
Around four o'clock today, a man fell down a building
trying to install the outdoor AC unit for a shopping mall near the terminal.
Excuse me, I have to start running my business.
What?
Okay. Sure.
Go ahead.
Darn it. Do you think you rented out the whole place?
Come on, don't sit around everywhere. At least sit together.
I can't believe this.
What's important isn't running your business.
It's not like we're here because we have time to kill.
Then can you return tomorrow?
I do need to run my business.
My gosh, you must have no idea what's going on.
Hey, you aren't just a witness.
You could have been his target.
You do know that his first victim was a prostitute
who worked at a karaoke room, don't you?
The skin therapist who died this time
was a bar girl before she opened her clinic.
So if we don't protect you as a witness, a survivor, or whatever,
we don't know what will happen.
Hey, man.
If another murder breaks out, it'll make our lives harder.
But...
No, it's not that you're his target right now.
I'm just a mom who has a child.
I'm not a prostitute
or a bar girl or anything like that.
I'm just trying to put food on the table for my child.
I feel bad for her,
but some girls are just destined to have rough lives.
Luck shapes our lives.
Look at how Joker surfaced right after she moved here.
If shit happens, the entire neighborhood will suffer.
-Hi. -Hi, there.
ONGSAN MARINATED CRAB STREET
Sir.
Why haven't you been around for meals lately?
Oh, well...
Say hello.
You even canceled dinner for your foot volleyball club.
Are you still in business?
Yes.
Pil-gu, where did one of the wheels go?
Where is it?
Where's the wheel, Pil-gu?
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
I'm sorry.
Pil-gu...
I'm sorry.
Leave
and never come back!
SERIAL MURDER, SOLE WITNESS
Look here, miss.
We're not protecting you because we have nothing better to do.
Then don't bother. Joker can just take me for all I care.
-What? -I'm more scared
of the police and reporters than I am of Joker.
How is this police protection?
You're invading my place of work.
-What? -This is my space.
You don't care at all about my livelihood.
I'm not a prostitute.
Also, I'm not unlucky, ominous,
or the kind of woman who is destined for tragedies.
Dongbaek...
Why...
Why are you making me out to be one?
Just
let me live peacefully with my boy.
How is this protection? You're basically branding me.
You're just acting as you please. This is wrong.
You shouldn't act like this.
I understand how you feel, but the situation has changed.
We're not like the reporters you came across in the past.
She already declined.
She said no and that's it.
Look here, officer. This is an abuse of authority.
Stop fidgeting with that camera.
Or I'll smash it to bits.
Have some respect, will you?
Camellia and Dongbaek...
aren't objects you can poke around at.
She's not alone anymore
and I'll be by her side 24-7, so--
Who are you to interfere with our business?
This is oppression of media--
I told you not to mess with Dongbaek.
I'll kill whoever messes with her.
Got it?
I'll pay for the udon.
It's the least I can do for what you did.
Right.
So...
did you actually see anything?
I got a glimpse from behind.
My gosh.
It must've been so scary.
If only I could whack the bastard myself.
I begged the Chief when I became a witness.
I asked
if he could keep my identity a secret
and not tell others that I witnessed anything.
I wanted to stay hidden forever
so people wouldn't say Pil-gu's the son of a woman who brings disaster.
That's not true at all.
Even from a young age, people were never fond of me.
They say I cast shadows around me
and that I'm unlucky.
It's not like I wanted to be an orphan though, right?
It wasn't my plan to become a single mother, either.
But people keep saying I bring bad luck.
Damn morons.
Who'd say that about you?
They even say that I look unlucky, too.
And that I look like I'll have a sorry life.
The thing is though,
that I sometimes feel that way too because it's what I hear.
Why pay attention to such nonsense?
You're right. It's absolute nonsense.
What?
I'm quite lucky, you know. I have a good life.
I'm the only one with Pil-gu, aren't I?
He only belongs to me.
Even if the goddess of birth offered me Kim Yuna
or the wealthy G-Dragon,
I'd always choose Pil-gu.
Do people not see how lucky I am?
Unlucky and sorry? Unbelievable.
Why would they say that?
-Enjoy. -Thank you.
It's the same for me.
Even if Princess Diana is reincarnated,
-or if Lim Soo-jung claims to like me-- -Who?
Lim Soo-jung.
Why would she ever do that?
Anyway, I wouldn't trade them for you.
You say that as if I'm yours.
You never know what'll happen in life.
CAMELLIA
What's the point of this? Let's just go.
See? I'm already sick and tired of the rumors around here.
Can you please just go?
Don't be absurd. How can I let you be all by yourself?
I get upset just thinking of you crawling into a corner at the train station
after getting slapped by someone again.
It's driving me crazy, too.
Who are you to get upset over it?
You're acting like we're something more than we really are.
Dongbaek, you need someone to vent your frustration on, right?
If anyone annoys you in any way,
poop it all out on me, all right?
Did you have to call it pooping?
The more you do this,
the more my neighbors will talk.
Anyone can see that it's strange.
Why are you coming to my aid like this?
I've already rejected you in advance
and it's not like we're friends, family,
or even a landlord and tenant for that matter.
We have no business whatsoever between us, so why are you doing this?
Dongbaek, you like good reasons, right?
What?
Follow me.
I see she's having a fun life...
That kind of makes me
quite annoyed.
Why are you dragging me into my own diner?
-Just follow me. -What are you doing?
My gosh. What is it?
Dongbaek, don't be alarmed.
Look.
YOU ALSO NEED TO STOP BEING A JOKE
You should know to take this seriously.
What's this?
I'm a patrol officer of this town
and this is written in your diner.
The year 2013?
I don't know if this was written by the actual culprit or not,
and I don't care if you rejected me.
I'm a police officer
and I will protect you no matter what.
When bad guys surface, the good guys come together.
From the Five Eagle Brothers to the Avengers,
that has been a cardinal rule.
Also, you...
You know...
Anyway, it's how I plan to win you over.
How's that...
for a reason?
What on earth are you talking about?
Could he be any weirder?
Never mind Joker. I don't care
if North Korea decides to bulldoze us with tanks.
I will protect you.
No matter what, I will keep you safe.
That I'll do.
Yong-sik, do you have any idea
how much you're flustering me?
THAT DAY ON JULY 9, 2013
The peanuts are on the house for my regulars.
Here.
Gosh, your shoes...
It's like you got flour all over them.
Enjoy.
DONGBAEK
YOU ALSO NEED TO STOP BEING A JOKE
DONGBAEK, YOU ALSO NEED TO STOP BEING A JOKE
DONGBAEK, THANK YOU FOR THE PEANUTS P.S. I'LL THANK YOU EVERY DAY, YONG-SIK
Subtitle translation by Ja-won Lee
WHEN THE CAMELLIA BLOOMS
-Jong-ryeol! -You seem down-to-earth.
I think a lot of ladies will find that quality very charming.
The men of Ongsan must tend to be that way.
Don't get mixed up with men who are like bears.
But Winnie the Pooh is sort of cute, right?
My own house is a prison for me mentally and physically.
You don't even respect me, do you?
Who else in Ongsan do you respect?
You acting like this will only humiliate me.
I'll make sure that
no one in Ongsan says you're the one hitting on me.
