(Episode 11)
Get a picture of Baek Eun Ho walking just fine.
Baek Eun Ho's illness is fake.
(Press Conference Room)
(Movie Star Baek Eun Ho's Temporary Hiatus)
- Here he is. - Here he comes.
- He's here. - There he is.
Dear fans who have shown me your support and love.
I'm sorry.
My doctor tells me that I have a nasty illness.
More than anything, I just started filming the movie.
As dropping out of the project is the only option,
I want to apologize to the director, my fellow actors and actresses,
and the movie crew whom I have disappointed.
I will stop here,
but our movie will not.
I have no doubt that the expectations and love...
for our movie will not stop here.
Everyone.
I plan to take a break from all activities...
and focus on my treatment.
I don't know when it will be,
but until the day I'm healthy and return as an actor,
goodbye.
Thank you for all your support.
(Eun Ho announces to take a break to focus on his treatment.)
That punk. What am I going to do with him?
How can a man look that sad...
just because he can't act in movies?
No.
This is all my fault.
It's because my blood is dirty...
that caused his father to die.
And now, my blood got passed onto him too. That's how this happened.
- Mr. Vice Chairman. - Yes?
I have no choice.
He's the eldest son of our family, you know.
Since he's your brother's son,
he's as good as your son.
Consider him your son and take him to the company.
Shouldn't you teach him a few things at work?
Okay, Father. I'll do as you say.
Don't worry.
Okay. Thank you.
Shi Ho is healthy, right?
Yes.
There you go again, Shi Ho. Straighten your back.
Do we have unfinished business?
Shi Ho's grandfather must be very worried these days...
given Eun Ho's condition.
Shi Ho is pretty good at horse riding.
I won't beat around the bush and I will get to the point.
Did you take a photo that you need to sell me?
No, I plan to take one.
Is it about me or my husband?
It's Eun Ho, your nephew.
I was going to sell it to Eun Ho,
but I'm going to give my existing client a chance to buy first.
How much is the photo?
I'm not sure. How much should I ask for?
For the photo that can switch Shi Ho and Eun Ho's futures?
(Big Issue)
Please present your request for treatment.
Okay.
We're getting the pictures from the 17th floor.
Excuse me. Where are you going?
He's getting admitted.
Okay. It's that way.
He's looking at me, right?
Yes.
- He wouldn't be a guy if he didn't. - Oh, please.
Take turns if you want to go somewhere.
Don't take your eyes off Eun Ho even for a second.
Got it?
Sure, let's do that.
- Have a good one. - Okay.
Bye.
Hello.
The physician in charge will come for rounds at 10am and 5pm.
You may have visitors from 9am to 8pm.
Outside visiting hours, even guardians must leave the hospital.
We'll take good care of the patient, so there's no need to worry.
If you have more questions, read the manual of the hospital...
- or ask someone at the station. - We will.
Okay.
I will install an endoscope camera facing Eun Ho's ward.
That will be difficult. It's box-shaped.
No, I'm sure it works.
These days, those cameras can go through everything.
I should've been there.
- Are you jealous? - Yes, of course.
Gosh, that jerk is so lucky.
It's because he has a good superior.
I'm sorry. Well...
This room is completely blocked from the next room.
There's no gap for me to get the endoscope camera through.
- What should I do? - What should we do?
What should we do?
What do you think, you punk?
Make it go through the ceiling.
What?
The ceiling is blocked too. I cannot push this in.
- What did you say? - It's blocked.
Use the ventilation tunnel.
What? Who was that who just spoke?
Since the building is a box frame construction,
it'll be difficult to penetrate the wall.
If you go in through the ventilation ducts, you can get a video.
Sir, we need something for a ventilation duct.
By the way, you crawled through this from the elevator to his ward?
Seriously? He's nuts.
He must have wasted the whole night crawling through this.
Focus!
Okay, I'll focus.
It's in.
The screen is blocking the lens.
Stop.
- Go in. - Sorry? I didn't hear you.
Go in yourself and put the camera in place.
But... It's too narrow. It'll be hard to...
You said someone crawled in there at night, so why can't you?
Yes, ma'am. I'll go in.
But let me try this just once. I'll go in if I can't get it.
Please trust me.
This is so annoying. It's all because of that trash.
Stop it. You'll get caught.
I got it.
That punk.
They didn't hear.
Eun Ho.
Yes?
I have something to tell you.
What is it?
Will you give me a hug first?
I'm the one who sent your photo to the media and told them...
about your disease.
- What? - I felt like...
you wouldn't give up acting otherwise.
Eun Ho, please let it go.
You won't be able to act even after your treatment.
- Please leave. - Eun Ho.
I said to leave.
How could a mom do that?
It's only natural. She cares about her son.
It's a show.
They know.
We weren't caught. It hardly made a sound.
You should've stopped when you were told.
And if I did?
You want me to crawl in there?
And do you know what pollutants...
Everything's a mess because of that trash. I'm so annoyed.
She knew.
She knew someone was listening...
and made it look like Eun Ho's disease was real.
Ma'am.
May I ask why you think that was an act?
Young Mi. I can't tell anyone, even you.
An unreasonably strong assertion implies denial.
She definitely knew someone was listening...
and put on an act like his disease was real.
There are many ways to get him out of military service.
Why would she make him retire from acting to do that?
- Whatever. Pull the team out. - Ma'am.
Eun Ho's mom is one thing, but we don't know about Eun Ho.
Please let us at least finish what we started.
- 8:15pm. - Hello.
- Thanks. - Most of the families left.
The weekday nurses and night nurses...
are meeting behind the nurses' station.
Only one nurse remains at the station to answer the calls.
Hello.
Right then, room 1719 will call the nurse.
(1719)
May I help you?
Please... Please help me.
Okay. Just a minute.
Ms. Lee will exit the bathroom...
and turn off the call from 1720,
and drug the coffee pot.
Then everything is ready.
That was easy.
[Kocowa Ver] SBS E11 'Big Issue' "Stakeout at the Hospital" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
Oh my gosh. He's drinking it all.
Did I just kill someone?
Don't worry. It's safe.
Did you really get sentenced to prison and serve time there?
Why?
Are you afraid you'll go to prison for taking a picture like this?
That's not it.
I wonder if I'll rise to become a leader...
if I put a notch on my belt as well.
Is being Sunday's Exclusive News Team Leader that big a deal?
Yes. It's huge.
You must not know.
This is a dream job for paparazzi.
Let me explain.
Sunday is split into two parts.
Regular journalists and exclusive news journalists.
The regular journalists investigate the news...
and upload them onto Sunday's website.
They get paid a salary.
It's much better than other companies for them too.
But the exclusive news team is completely different.
It isn't an exaggeration to say...
the exclusive news team carries Sunday.
We live off of commission.
As you know, we get paid a set salary,
but we really live off of the commission.
That's why it's no holds barred.
If an assistant gets paired with a good leader,
he or she gets much more than most office workers.
I won't even talk about the leaders.
They're way up there.
That's why I want to become a leader.
Lucky you.
Why is he rambling on and saying stupid things?
Let him be.
He's explaining it much more nicely than you.
How did you get into this line of work?
Me?
I knew you'd ask.
Have you seen the movie "Taxi" by Luc Besson?
Taxi?
Yes.
That was my story.
He took my idea and turned it into a movie.
Give me a break.
I used to drive an underground taxi.
An underground taxi?
The taxis that crazed fans take to chase after celebrities...
are called "underground taxis".
Thanks to them, I know where celebrities live,
their salons, usual hangout spots,
secret meet-up spots, everything, all over Seoul.
Then one day, they had a night study session at school...
and gave me a single-use camera...
and asked me to take pictures for them.
That's how I got into this business.
Remember Jang Hye Jung that you met earlier?
I tried to sell her some photos.
What? Jang Hye Jung?
I'm going to kill him.
You call me "Venom" behind my back too.
Okay. The drug should be kicking in. Let's get started.
Okay. Get started.
Yes, ma'am.
He's up. Get ready.
Got it.
On standby.
(Absolute Rest)
Hey. Hey.
Activate it now.
What's wrong with this now?
Darn it.
Okay. Get ready.
Get up, Eun Ho.
No one is looking.
There you go.
That's it.
Hey!
Excuse me.
Unbelievable.
Hey.
Anyone?
Hey. Hey.
Nurse! Nurse!
Nurse!
Oh, no! Are you all right?
Doctor, a patient fell on the floor.
Are you all right?
- Move him to the bed now! - Okay.
I don't think he's faking his illness.
Ms. Ji, I agree with her.
This jerk is taking method acting to the extreme.
Based on what grounds are you suspecting him?
This was a waste from the get-go.
Fake illness, my foot.
Watch your language.
My gosh, I'm sorry.
But do you think this makes sense?
The doctor made a diagnosis.
And his father died because of the same illness.
And he was crawling all over the floor.
Did you not see that?
Do you think a movie star would do that to get out of the service?
Ms. Seo.
When all of us were wasting time on that scoop,
Kang Ji Woon and Ha Ji Young just made their relationship public.
We were waiting to break that scoop for two months.
She should run the teams while keeping backup.
If all the Exclusive News Teams invest time in Eun Ho's case,
who would bring in the money?
Okay. I'll mention it to her.
And Ms. Jang, are you going to continue working with that guy?
Who? Han Seok Joo? Why do you ask?
I won't say anything when he's working for your scoop,
I don't want to see him during our joint project.
You know that Dong Won is against this guy,
but I don't feel comfortable either.
Why?
I'm sure SH likes the guy,
but not every photographer can risk his life to take photos.
Everyone is doing this to make a living, you know?
To put it bluntly, because of that guy,
we might have to start crawling in the ventilation ducts now.
Okay. I understand.
Okay?
I brought you coffee and sandwiches.
You should go after you drink the coffee.
Did Ms. Jang ask me to come back?
No, she didn't. But it looks like we're going to wrap up.
Everyone is annoyed and making a fuss.
Actually, all three teams...
don't need to be here to take a photo just to prove...
he was trying to get out of military service.
Have the sandwich and go.
Is she the type let us wrap things up just because...
people are annoyed and mad?
She?
Do you mean Ms. Ji?
Yes.
No. She never allowed that.
Then, we don't need to go back.
(Gyeongnam Assets' Second Daughter-in-law)
- Yes? - When will you give me the photo?
It may take a while.
My goodness. You weren't able to take it yet?
The almighty Ji Soo Hyun needs more time?
Why? Are you in a rush? There's no reason for that.
You won't have that much time on your hands.
Eun Ho is going to Switzerland tomorrow to get treated.
Hurry.
Like you said earlier...
- Yes, tell everyone to pull out. - Pardon?
Okay.
I must change my plan.
Let's expedite this. I don't have much time left.
- Pardon? - Eun Ho...
is going to Switzerland for treatment tomorrow.
All of a sudden.
(Episode 12 will air shortly.)
(Episode 12)
- We must go down for a scan. - Okay.
- You must wait outside. - Okay.
Please put anything metal in this box.
Don't forget your phone.
Thank you.
Did you filter out all the numbers in his contacts?
Yes, except for changed numbers,
I uploaded all the other numbers onto our database.
Great. We just need to check for women, right?
Put it on the screen.
Remove his mom, relatives, people from work,
and anyone over 40.
Show me a list of women Eun Ho may date.
That's it.
He's a total player.
What? What is it?
A stakeout didn't work, so she's going fishing?
Why is she doing that? Why?
I know, right?
Ms. Lee, she wants you in the situation room.
Me? Why?
We used big data to analyze Eun Ho's network.
But we can't find the answer that we want.
In other words, he is not in a deep relationship with anyone.
He's superficially dating many women.
Who among them would he risk being caught...
and run out of the hospital for...
if she calls? Who would it be?
Let your imaginations run wild.
Obviously, it's the one with the nicest body.
Everyone on this list has great bodies.
He's a celebrity, so popularity would be a priority.
If we sort them by highest paid per advertisement,
we should find the answer.
You have a point.
But Eun Ho comes from great wealth himself.
Since the girls are friends too,
wouldn't his oldest friend be the most effective?
We can look for the person whose number was saved first.
Ms. Jang.
If he knew her the longest, wouldn't he be the least allured by her?
Come on. Be more creative.
What would you base it on?
Let's see.
The person he spends the most money on right now?
Men tend to spend money on women they love.
Should we look at his credit card statements?
For men, it's the woman he didn't get yet.
Are you kidding me?
No. He's right.
Someone he didn't get yet.
That may mean he didn't get what he wanted yet.
So he can't forget her. He can't let go.
Well, so how do we find the love he never obtained...
from that list?
It's not like we can open him up and look into his heart.
Someone he can't let go of.
I'm sure someone said that to me earlier.
What did you say earlier?
Sorry? Me? I didn't say anything.
You said...
Changed number.
Yes. We filtered out numbers from his contacts...
that had changed...
Oh my gosh. Changed number.
A number that's no longer in service, but he can't delete it.
- He can't let go? - Exactly.
See if any of those filtered out numbers were of girls.
This was the only one.
- She's pretty. - What does she do?
Check big data and get me the list of social media accounts.
Hello.
I don't know how you found me,
but Eun Ho and I weren't like that.
I'm sure...
he doesn't even remember my name anymore.
Really?
We'll know if you call him.
Let's see whether or not he remembers you.
Why are you doing this to me?
(Baek Eun Ho)
Hello?
Hey, Hae Joo.
It's me, Eun Ho.
Hi, Eun Ho.
How do you feel?
I saw on the news. Are you okay?
Are you in a lot of pain?
Me? No. I'm totally fine.
What about you? Are you doing okay?
Actually,
the chief editor of Sunday Syndicate came to see me today.
She asked about us.
Sunday?
I see.
So?
So nothing. Don't worry. I said there was nothing between us.
Did you call because she made you worry about me?
I'm getting slightly hurt...
that you said there was nothing between us.
Eun Ho, don't make jokes.
Ji Soo Hyun, the chief editor of Sunday Syndicate,
came after me. That means she's after you.
I'm kind of grateful to her.
I never thought I'd see you again,
but she made you call me.
- Eun Ho. - Let's meet.
Let's meet in person.
What if she tries to hurt you?
- I think... - I'm going to Switzerland tomorrow.
I'm getting treated there.
I may never be able to come back.
Don't worry.
Your treatment will go well. I'll pray for you.
Where are you? I'll go to you.
What?
Now?
Why won't Ms. Jang pick up?
I hear everyone is coming back.
We should start packing up too.
What?
Are you going somewhere?
(Hanshin Hospital)
You have a car, right?
Help me out.
He's leaving now.
Let's go.
He's almost there. Get ready.
(Eun Ho)
Hey.
Come out. Stay on the phone.
That's right.
Get in.
Get in quickly.
Hold up.
What's going on?
Hey. Follow them. Go.
Follow them.
What are you people doing?
You are trespassing on private property.
The police will arrive soon.
No one may leave until they do.
What?
Darn it.
You must have been scared.
Don't worry. It was to get rid of the tail from Sunday.
See you soon.
But how did you know that?
That Eun Ho was going to trick us.
No matter how advanced the cameras become,
cameras can't replace seeing him in person.
I didn't see a thing though.
Okay.
What? Now?
Wait. No. Keep tailing him.
What are you talking about?
The photographers from Team Three are tailing Eun Ho now.
What? Play me the call.
Who called?
This is Hong Tae Woo from Team Three.
Right now, my supervisor who's accompanying me now is...
Han Seok Joo... He's here.
- Put him on the phone. - Hold on.
You can talk now.
I'm here. Go ahead.
How are you still tailing him? How did you know where he'd be?
It's obvious.
Ms. Jang told me not to take my eyes off Eun Ho even for a second.
I was following her order and I ended up here.
You're so cool.
Okay.
Luckily, Seok Joo is tailing Eun Ho.
What? What did you say? Han Seok Joo?
Are you sure you're okay?
Yes, I'm okay.
If I get treated properly, I can live like a normal person.
That's all I could ask for.
Who knows?
I might quit those action movies and star in romance movies.
Yes, that would be nice too.
I'm sorry, Eun Ho.
- What's that? - It's a transmitter.
When I turn this on, the camera becomes a broadcast camera.
The car antenna will catch this camera's signal...
and shoot the video with 5G.
To where?
To the headquarters.
Gosh, there are always those people who snatch away things...
that are meant for other people.
Now that there's 5G, paparazzi have an upper hand.
What's not meant for who?
You startled me. Did you turn it on already?
Can you hear us too?
They can see and hear us.
I'm sure they're laughing now.
Hold on.
Sir, he's definitely somewhere here.
Okay. I got it. I'm looking for the car too. Calm down.
- Hurry! - Where is this car?
Ms. Ji, we have a problem. there's an underground taxi.
What? Are you sure?
Yes, I know this taxi.
And those girls have DSLR cameras too.
How does it look?
I think they'll get caught soon. What should we do?
- Wait. - Wait?
Okay. I got it.
What is she going to do?
- What is it? - No.
Your agent. Where is your agent?
I told him to stay away.
That's the car! Stay close to that car.
I think he's going to get caught.
They're your stalker fans. It's over if they found out about us.
How did you know that they were here?
How did you know?
I'm the bait.
For Ji Soo Hyun of Sunday.
What?
I was the bait to lure you out here.
I really hope he picks up.
- Hello? - Hey, it's been a while.
Hey, yes. It's been a while. What's going on?
I'm right behind you.
- Really? - Can you turn the car around?
- I'll double the fee they gave you. - Really?
But you know, business has been slow lately.
- I'll quadruple it. - Okay.
Then let's grab soju together some other day.
Sure. Thank you.
I'm very close with the driver of the underground taxi.
My gosh.
Did I get a flat tire? What's wrong with my car?
- What? - What? It was fine a minute ago.
You get flat tires out of the blue. I should check on it.
- You'll suddenly check it now? - We have to go now.
We're going to lose him.
Be quiet. Let me pull over first. Hold on a second.
- We lost him because of you! - We lost him because of you!
- Stop the car. - No.
I don't care. Stop the car.
Never. I care.
I can't get photographed with you.
- What? - I prepared a new song...
without my label all on my own.
This new single might be my last one.
And Ji Soo Hyun said that she'd nullify my slave contract.
If there's a scandal of us, I'm done for.
Your fans won't leave me alone.
- Hae Joo. - Yes, I won't...
miss you...
or be jealous of you anymore.
I'll live a happy life...
smiling on TV just like you.
I got it, so stop the car.
It's dangerous, so stop the car!
- Move. - Stop the car.
[Kocowa Ver] SBS E12 'Big Issue' "A Cruel, Heartless Paparazzo" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
Wait! Wait!
Camera. Get the camera.
Wait with the camera.
I can't see them. I can't see them.
You'll jump in and then what?
I called the ambulance, so wait.
We don't have time.
They're going to die!
If you jump in there now, Se Eun will die too.
Hold on.
Mr. Han.
Hae Joo. Hae Joo.
Hae Joo!
Call 911!
Mr. Han.
They're coming up.
His legs are totally fine.
What are you doing? Get your cameras up.
Hae Joo, wake up.
Please, wake up. Please.
Please.
Hae Joo, wake up.
Hae Joo.
We should leave the scene.
Wait.
Hae Joo. Please, wake up.
Hae Joo. Wake up.
She's alive. Sir.
- Get in. - Let's go.
You'll be okay.
I'm sorry.
How were you so sure...
that Eun Ho was faking his illness?
He isn't his father's real son.
How could he have inherited his disease?
Father. It's true.
I didn't do anything wrong.
Eun Ho's father didn't want to give his child...
his hereditary disease...
and insisted on using someone else's sperm for artificial insemination.
Don't call him Eun Ho's father!
My son is not your son's father!
You dirty slime balls. You conspired with the child of some random punk,
and tried to take my company?
No, Father. That's not it.
Hey, you.
I mean,
Sweetie. All of that punk's assets...
will go to Shi Ho from now on, so you manage them.
Yes, Father. I'll do that.
I'll let him keep the Baek family name...
only because I'm too ashamed about this getting out,
but I never want to see you...
or your kid ever again.
- Mr. Vice Chairman. - Yes, sir.
Don't let them...
anywhere near my funeral when I die.
Got that?
Yes, Father.
Where's the attorney?
I need to revise my will.
Father...
I am leaving the country tonight to start my treatment.
Last night,
at the thought this may be my last night in my home country,
I sneaked out of the hospital...
and drove a car by myself to meet a friend.
I hoped I'd be fine,
but I suddenly lost control of my right leg,
and I got into a car accident.
Thankfully, no one was hurt,
but I was irresponsible.
I'd like...
to apologize...
sincerely to everyone.
Was the person you were trying to see...
your girlfriend?
She was at one time.
Then were you trying to see your ex-girlfriend?
We broke up last night.
Why did you break up?
How long were you two together?
Yesterday was...
6 years, 7 months, and 23 days.
We will end the press conference here.
Due to his health, we will not take any more questions.
Please send us your questions, and we'll answer them swiftly.
- Oh my gosh. - Goodness.
- Six years? - My gosh.
How sad.
He really needs to act.
Prepare the follow-up story.
Follow-up?
We need to see whether or not he serves in the military.
That venomous snake.
I'll write you a nice article for your comeback.
Please keep your promise to Hae Joo.
Let's go.
Hello.
We have great news for you.
Se Eun was selected to receive full financial support...
from a large charitable foundation.
- What? - What?
What do you mean?
You don't have to worry about paying for treatments and surgeries.
Why?
We never applied for sponsorship with any foundation.
That's right.
Congratulations. You were lucky.
We had a surplus in our budget due to a special donation,
so we searched for a recipient...
consistent with our cause,
and Se Eun was selected.
It will be done discretely...
so that your ex and the hospital have no idea.
He is our foundation's medical consultant.
- Hello. - Hello.
May I take a look, Se Eun?
- It's okay. - It's okay.
Okay. Let me see.
Okay. We're good now.
You don't have to worry about a thing anymore.
We promise to find a heart perfect for Se Eun.
But first, let's bring her to our hospital and get her...
a VAD implanted right away.
- Sorry? - A VAD?
We will pay for the surgery and all medical costs,
so don't worry about a thing.
Do you give your consent?
Yes, of course. Thank you, doctor.
Thank you.
Se Eun.
Mommy...
Why are you crying? Se Eun.
Don't cry. Mommy's crying because she's so happy.
It's because she's so happy.
- Mommy. - Don't cry.
Don't cry, Se Eun. Why are you crying?
Se Eun.
If you had jumped into the water to save Eun Ho,
what would've happened?
Would people have praised you for being a nice paparazzo...
that saved a person's life?
Eun Ho would've succeeded in faking his disease,
and you would've gone to jail as a dirt bag...
who endangered a star's life.
And because you have a prior,
you would've received an enhanced sentence.
Se Eun wouldn't have gotten this far either.
I kept my promise to bring Se Eun here.
So you keep your promise.
Your promise to become a cruel, heartless paparazzo.
(Big Issue)
- Are you okay? - Yes.
Following him is going to drive me into an early grave.
That's because we're paparazzi.
Because we're paid according to what we do.
I'm just annoyed because a newcomer is trying to oust a regular member.
It's a drug ring disguised as a talent agency.
We're up against Nam Jin Suk, a prosecutor.
He's a total sick, perverted psycho.
You shouldn't let some perverted associate prosecutor...
scare a CEO like you.
Hey. Do you feel better today?
Does anyone have any ideas? We need to do something!
