[Final Episode] [The End of the King or The Last King]
Where have you been?
Did you finish your script?
Don't catch a cold again and get back inside.
How long are you going to hide it from me?
How long are you going to hide the fact that you are going blind?
You said it was depression?
Did you tell me not to worry about it since it has nothing to do with me?
That's right. It has nothing to do with you so you should stay out of it.
Of course, it has something to do with me.
So, what can you do for me?
That's right. As you said...
I won't be able to see anymore.
I won't be able to eat or go to the bathroom alone.
I won't be able to watch my drama.
And read your script...
I won't be able to see your face.
Where you are standing...
And whether you are smiling or crying...
I won't be able to see any of it.
Is that why you are giving up?
What if it doesn't matter?
I said it doesn't matter to me.
It'll be difficult to endure.
But I still want to try.
Let's do this together.
This might be the last time I see a sunrise.
You may not be able to see it but I can help you feel it.
And I'll be beside you.
Even when you won't be able to see your dramas...
Or be able to read my scripts or see my face...
Where you are standing.... whether you are smiling or crying...
I'll look and see everything for you.
Since we came all the way, should we go to sleep and leave?
Wh... What?
Why are you so surprised?
Wa... Wait a minute.
I'm not an easy woman.
What are you thinking about?
I mean let's go to the car and sleep little and head back.
Since it's going to be tough driving back...
shouldn't we get some sleep before we get on the road?
Pervert.
Fine. I'm a pervert.
With this kind of driving skill, how in the world did you get a license?
I told you. This is the first time I'm driving since I got my license.
Actually, this is your second time.
What?
On the way down and one the way up...
the second time is no better than the first.
Scared?
Make sure you look ahead.
Okay.
Until the end of episode 24...
you need to work hard so that we don't miss airing any episode.
Even though we have to struggle to write, with no sleep, and live a third rate lifestyle...
Every second that we spent will help us remember this moment.
Writer Lee and I will be in charge of the script.
Everyone else will be in charge of the field work.
Got it.
Alright, everyone should give their best. Understand?
Yes.
The real issue is Sung Min Ah, who is shooting our drama and a movie.
Since she won't be as available...
we need to reduce Jin Hye Rin's part as much as possible.
Can you do it?
Even if I have to kill Jin Hye Rin at the last episode...
I'll make sure I'll tie up the story so don't worry.
The script for the episode 20 came out.
Did you distribute scripts to the actors and the staff?
Yes.
Good. From now on...
We need to shoot scenes for Min Ah all at once.
So, make sure you schedule things accordingly.
Yes.
Everyone hurry up. Let's take another shot at it.
Yes.
Kim Woo Jin.
Sung Mo, how many scenes in total?
Yes, just a moment.
It's 52 vs. 36
You have ovewhelmingly more scenes.
Finally, the result of my effort is showing through.
Writer Lee has felt my real worth on the screen through my acting.
So, Sung Mo...
you should put in more effort. Find your shortcoming.
Unless one knows himself...
One can never grow, I was told.
Sung Mo, what's your shortcoming?
Well, I don't know. My shortcoming...
Hemorroides...
You need to...
Go to the hospital and fix it.
By the way...
do you think you can memorize all those lines?
Too many lines is not the problem. Too little is.
This time I need to show my passionate acting skills.
Let's go.
Jin Hye Rin is confined by Mr. Kang in the beginning of episode 21.
Kim Woo Jin single-handedly fights to rescue Jin Hye Rin.
So, Jin Hye Rin scenes will be shot all at once?
That's it.
It'll add tension to the drama and accomodate the shooting schedule.
Kang Hyun Min will be in for a lot of work.
Good. Let's go with that.
Ah, how are your eyes? Are they okay?
One side is still okay.
What are you doing? Get on with the writing.
Yes.
I think I'm genius. Don't you think so?
So, when was it really?
Excuse me?
When did you start liking me?
What about you?
I asked you first.
Well... so I...
During the plagiarism dispute...
You...
said you trusted me... till the end.
What about you?
I don't remember.
That's totally not fair. I told you everything.
Get back to your script.
Hurry up and tell me. When was it?
If don't tell me, I'm not going to write the script.
When you finish your script, I'll tell you.
You are such a cheater.
You just realize that now?
Ready.
Action! Ready.
Action!
I've not forgotten about you. Not even for a moment...
From the day when we first met...
When we first saw each other...
Cut!
I'll do it again.
I've not forgotten about you. Not even for a moment...
The day when we first saw each other...
Even on the day when we aimed...
That day...
Cut.
What was the next line?
I've not forgotten about you. Not even for a moment...
From the day when we first saw each other...
Until the day we aimed our guns at each other...
Cut.
Hyun Min.
Let's look at the script one more time and shoot again.
No, Director. I can do it.
Let's roll it again.
No, let's take a five minute break.
I defintely memorized them all.
Just use a cheat sheet.
Who do you think made this happen?
You mean I should cheat by looking at the lines while I'm acting?
I was only trying to help.
I'm fine.
You must be thinking I can't pull this off.
You'll see. I'll memorize everything perfectly.
I've not forgotten about you. Not even for a moment...
From the day when we first saw each other...
Until the day we aimed our guns at each other...
Not even a moment... I've forgotten anything.
So, please trust me.
I trust you.
If we want to be together...
This is the only choice we have.
Cut! Okay!
Hyun Min. Your expression was great until the end.
Of course. Who do you think this is?
Based on the rate of progression of your condition...
It may be be challenging to continue your work.
But there is something I must do.
If I can't avoid being blind...
I'm going to try to hold out as long as possible.
Actually, there's something I didn't mention because I didn't want to get your hopes up.
Recently, the Besco-Palma Research Center in Florida...
based on result from the first phase of the clinical trial...
on the gene therapy method on this condition...
There was a small amount of test subjects that...
recovered completely from the condition.
I'm not sure when there will be a phase II of this clinical trial.
And it won't be easy to get you on the list of subjects.
But, I'll try my best.
Thank you.
Go Eun. Mom's here.
Are you here?
I'm sorry. I have to finish it quickly and send it out soon.
I'm not going to disturb you. So, go ahead and write.
Hey, do you have an assistant writer now?
No. Why?
Then why do you have two toothbrushes?
That's because...
I haven't seen these before either.
Why...
aren't these men's?
No... No, they aren't...
You!
Bong Dal or that scoundrel has been coming here?
Mom... No... That's not it.
Hi, you are here.
Oh, good timing.
You said you knew Kim Bong Dal.
Give me his contact number.
Mom. I said that's not it.
What do you mean that's not it?
There are two toothbrushes.
There's this men's skincare here are proof.
I have to see what this scoundrel looks like.
I think there's been some kind of misunderstanding...
But Kim Bong Dal isn't as bad as you think he is.
So that's why I want to meet him in person.
Mom. Later...
I'll introduce you to him later.
Well, later my foot. I'll just call him now.
Mom.
Here he is... Bong Dal.
This is the sound of my alarm.
Give it back.
Ah, mom... Go!
Can't you see that I'm not getting anything done?
Anyway, you have a warning. A warning!
Hi.
What's this?
What else? It's coffee.
Go ahead.
By the way did you write that yesterday?
Over there. I'm talking about what you wrote that on the wall yesterday.
Well, I did that because I thought you were having a hard time.
Wonder whether that was all...
Of course, that was all. What else could there be?
Most women don't realize how they really feel.
Fine.
If I'm so precious to you...
Then I'm not going to push you away like I did before.
What?
You've fallen for me.
Please don't be delusional.
So, you are going to play hard to get.
I know how women play this game.
Seriously... What the hell.
She's cute and lovely.
Very attractive... like coffee.
I thought he was simple. But this is beyond...
Is he going to latch on to me like a leech?
Do you think this is funny?
I'm just incredulous.
Oh, hi Director Kim.
I was going to give you a call anyway.
That's okay. I know you are busy.
I'm double booked for the shooting because of a movie.
I'm calling in regards to your next drama.
What about we go with writer Kim Eun Sook?
I'm very happy about it. If it's writer Kim Eun Sook...
But is that what President Kim said?
Did he say it'll be writer Kim Eun Sook?
Ah, I guess you haven't heard.
What haven't I heard?
Due to a personal reason, Anthony Kim has declined Taesan's investment offer.
What's going on?
I heard you declined Taesan's investment offer due to a personal reason.
It's just as you heard.
So, I'm asking you what the hell that personal reason is.
I'll tell you that reason...
on the day the last episode of 'Gyeongseong's Morning' airs.
So, please don't leave any loose ends.
Cut! Okay!
That was good.
Let's prepare for the next scene.
[To be continued tomorrow at 9:55pm]
23.9!
Good work, everyone.
I want to see the layout of the new set. So, take pictures and send them to me.
Happy New Year.
[Gyeongseong's Morning] [Viewer Ratings 26.8%, Great Progress]
Let's try to reach the 30 percent.
One. Two. Three...
[Gyeongseong's Morning, New Year's Resolution] [26.8%, the highest ratings since airing.]
I finished up till scene 52.
PD Joo said she just sent up to scene 52. So, check your email.
[Gyeongseong's Morning, highest ratings of 27.3%] [The highest viewer ratings in ten years.]
The script came out.
29.3!
[Just prior to the last episode,] [Gyeongseong's Morning ratings close to 30%]
[The end of Gyeongseong's Morning last episode]
The end!
Send it out quickly.
I sent it out. Now, it's really the end.
You've worked hard.
You probably just want to go to sleep now. But, you have to go somewhere with me.
Get changed and come out.
Where?
Are you here?
What are you doing? Come on in.
Who is it?
Hi, how are you?
She's the one who gave you that scarf as a gift.
I can tell just by hearing her voice.
Welcome.
Mom. I kept my promise.
Okay.
What promise?
There is something like that.
What's that promise?
Yes.
I just got a call from the U.S.
Please come to the hospital now.
The list of subjects for the clinical trial phase II has been released.
You are on the list.
As I mentioned before...
It'll be like a miracle if you can avoid losing your sight.
However, let's hope for that miracle.
And the reason why I ask you to come immediately is...
because you'll need to depart tomorrow.
- Tomorrow? - Yes.
One of the subjects lost his sight before the trial began.
That's how you were able to get on the list.
If you want to be there on time for the trial, you must leave tomorrow.
What is that look for?
If I could, I want to send you away today.
What?
You said this once.
You don't wait for a miracle to happen. You make it happen.
Isn't it great that there is even one percent of hope?
Go on.
You won't be able to see the last episode. But instead...
you have to make that miracle happen and come back.
So, you can see me still going forward.
What are you doing?
Hurry up and make a flight reservation.
What?
What are you doing up there?
Did you make a reservation?
Yes. It'll depart from Incheon Airport at 3pm tomorrow.
I guess it'll be difficult to say goodbye to people before you go.
Probably.
I'll explain it to them.
Sure.
But what are you doing not sleeping?
You can't sleep because you are thinking about me?
Not at all.
Why do I like such an inattentive man?
But, you can't take it back.
Good night.
You, too.
What are you thinking about so deeply?
This is the last day and I think they are still shooting.
Do you have that much free time to be up here?
I don't have much free time.
But, I do have time to come up here.
The time flew by, didn't it?
We are already at the last episode.
Yes.
President Kim.
Do you remember what happened here on the day you got to be on the air schedule?
How can I forget?
I got something really big in return as a proof of being on the same boat.
I didn't have a handle on my strength that day.
Forget about it now.
Let's do the next drama together.
You should hurry and get writer Lee Go Eun before you try to scout me.
Thank you for everything.
What's this?
You sound like we'll never see each other again.
I also thank you.
President Oh.
What's going on?
You are calling me President Oh.
I'm sorry about everything.
This is out of the blue... what are you talking about?
I had no idea you couldn't be at your father's deadbed.
You may not believe it but...
I sincerely mean it.
Because you are doing this now...
Do you think I'll forgive you?
As you wish...
But I just wanted to apologize.
You must give this letter to Hye Rin before midnight.
Before midnight?
If not, everyone will be in danger.
Can you do it?
Of course, I can do it.
Good luck.
Cut! Okay!
What's the next scene?
The rest of the scenes can only be shot when Sung Min Ah is here.
PD Joo.
Yes, I got it.
Is Min Ah finished with her movie shoot yet?
Yes, she's finished and just left.
I think she would be here in two hours.
Two hours...
Hyun Min. Why don't you take a break in the car?
Is Sung Min Ah going to be late?
She's on her way but I think it may take some time.
Take a break, huh?
We are going to standby for a while.
Have a good trip.
When you arrive, make sure to call.
Why aren't you answering?
Because, I don't need to say anything.
The passangers on the 3pm flight bound to Florida.
Please board as soon as possble.
Once again... The 3pm flight bound to Florida...
Don't worry about it too much.
I'll be back soon.
Yeah, PD Joo.
Sir, there is big problen.
What do you mean big problem?
Sung Min Ah hasn't arrived at the shooting site, yet.
What? She's hasn't arrived there yet?
Because of the traffic, she won't be able to do the shooting until 7pm. What? She's hasn't arrived there yet?
Because of the traffic, she won't be able to do the shooting until 7pm.
Then it'll be impossible to shoot the rest and sent the tape before the airtime.
This will be the first time we will be missing an airtime.
No! No matter what, you can't miss the airtime.
Yes, sir.
The passangers on the 3pm flight bound to Florida.
We will be departing shortly. Please board as soon as possible.
Lee Go Eun.
What's going on? Didn't you board the flight?
There is a trouble at the shooting site.
That's not what I'm asking. You're supposed to leave today.
I need to take care of this trouble.
Why do you have to do that?
It's not like there's no one who can take care of that.
It's not like there isn't any other flight either.
What?
I'm going to get on the 11:45pm flight tonight.
So, don't worry.
Did you think I'd do something like this without thinking things through?
So... what's the trouble?
You need to revise the script right now.
Revise the script?
Because Sung Min Ah can't get to the shooting site, they can't shoot her part.
How many Jin Hye Rin's scenes are there at the end?
There are five scenes.
We have no time for that.
We have to reduce it down to two scenes.
Then there won't be enough scenes.
I'll take care of that with the editor.
Can you do it?
I'll do my best. Ah...
I don't have my labtop so how do I revise it?
May I help you?
I have a favor to ask.
It's me.
You should have driven more carefully on this snowy road.
I'm sorry I'm late.
Let's talk about that later but where are you now?
This is...
I think we are still in Jaechun.
Listen to me now.
Get out of the car and you need to hitchhike on a motercycle or whatever.
What? A motorcycle?
Tell the driver not to go too fast since it's dangerous.
This is the only way to prevent the worst case scenario of missing an airtime.
Yes, I understand.
I'm also on my way to the shooting site so I'll see you there.
Thank you so much.
Don't worry.
Be careful.
I'll call you.
Director. There is big problem.
Gyeongseong's Morning's last tape hasn't arrive yet.
What?
What are you talking about?
The tape hasn't arrived yet?
Sung Min Ah hasn't arrived at the shooting site yet.
So, the whole crew is on standby.
What should we do?
Shouldn't we do something, Director Nam?
Report back to me as soon as you hear more about the situation.
Yes, I got it.
Are we going to miss the airtime?
There isn't much we can do at this point.
We should trust President Kim. And wait to see what happens.
Yes, sir.
Can you put together a past story to go before the last episode?
Make it about three minutes long.
That long?
We don't have enough scenes.
Also, put together a reminiscing scene about two minutes long.
Okay, I got it.
She's on her way but I can't get in touch with her.
Just send the tape we have for now.
Okay.
What about Min Ah?
She's left on a motorcycle.
There is no way I can confirm where they are now.
What should we do now?
At this rate, we may not be able to air the last episode.
That's not going to happen.
Don't worry about it too much. Sung Min Ah will arrive on time.
Writer Lee is revising last part into two scenes and she will give them to us shortly.
Is that right? Let's say the later part is fine like that.
But what about scene 28 and scene 31 in the middle?
First, we should shoot Hyun Min's side.
My side first?
What are you talking about?
It's a dialogue scene so how can you shoot it with me alone?
Oh, you.
You should change into Jin Hye Rin's clothes now.
Just the top will be enough.
What do you mean?
You're saying can't go with me now?
If we go together like this...
We're more likely to get caught.
So, please you go alone.
No, I can never do that.
We'll die together.
And we will also live together.
Cut! Okay!
Then we're done with Hyun Min's side in scene 28 and 31.
Now, Min Ah just has to be here.
Yeah.
Did you finish the script?
Yes, I just sent it out. What about Sung Min Ah?
She's just arrived in time.
I'm glad.
Good work. You're finished with your work so go get some rest.
Thank you so much.
I think the last episode will be able to air today.
I'm glad. I'll be watching the last episode today.
Thank you very much.
I'm sorry, Director. I came so late.
That's okay. Sorry you had to rush your way here.
Okay, let's hurry since Min Ah is here.
Where is the costume team?
I'm sorry. I made you wait for a long time.
A long time. A really long time.
Do you think I haven't been in a movie shoot before?
I'm really sorry.
Anyway, I'll see you after the shooting.
Now, are you all ready?
Let's start rolling.
Ready! Action!
Now, I'm finished with everything I had to do.
Everything will work out.
Don't worry, Go Eun.
What do you mean?
You're saying can't go with me now?
If we leave together...
We're more likely to get caught.
So, please you should go alone.
No, I can never do that.
We'll die together.
We'll also live together.
Cut! Okay!
This is Gyeongseong's Morning's last tape.
The schedule will still be tight even if you leave now.
This is Anthony.
What did I tell you?
Not a day works smoothly without you, rabid dog.
I'm counting on you until the end.
Thank you for your hard work.
Sir.
Thank you so much for today.
You can thank me later.
Be careful.
Thank you.
Are you on your way?
Yes, I'm on my way.
When do you think you'll get here?
I'm going to deliver the tape. So, wait for me there.
You are delivering the tape?
PD Joo can do that, too.
Are you going to do this until the end?
Because this is the last one...
I really want to hand over the tape myself.
What if you miss that flight? What are you going to do then?
It's 11:45pm flight.
I have plenty of time to hand over the tape and catch the flight.
Okay. But please don't be late.
Okay.
Why are you going to the airport?
It's nothing.
I'm just going abroad to take a break.
Ah, they're making us so anxious again.
There isn't much time left until the airtime.
Director.
Anthony is on his way there with the last tape.
How long will they take to get here?
They said they'll arrive here in time.
I'm relieved.
Let's wait and see what happens.
He has to arrive now to in order for to it air on time.
Florida...
11:45...
That's strange.
He definitely said it was 11:45.
There is no 11:45 flight?
Yes.
That can't be.
Would you mind checking it again?
I'm sorry. The 3pm flight was the last Florida bound flight for today.
The next flight is scheduled to depart tomorrow at 3pm.
What time is it?
It's 9:20.
We are almost there.
Yeah, what's going on?
Why did you lie to me?
There never was a 11:45pm flight. So, why did you lie to me?
If I told you honestly, you wouldn't have let me go.
Are you crazy?
This was your last chance to get your eyes cured.
That's right. It might have been a very small and a last chance.
I might have I wanted to hang on to that very small chance.
But this is my last drama.
With knowing that my last drama was going to be ruined...
I couldn't abandon it and just leave.
Are you saying that's more important that your eyes?
That's right. This is my last drama and your first.
I'm sorry. I'll see you later.
Sir, what were you just talking about?
It's nothing. Make sure you drive carefully.
Sir...
Are you okay?
Sir...
Sir, are you okay?
Sir.
You go and deliver this tape.
No. I can't leave you here.
You see those people over there?
They'll call an ambulance for me.
I'm okay.
Go and deliver the tape.
No, I can't.
Hurry up. If you don't want to hear an ear full from me later.
Right now.
There has been a car accident and someone got hurt badly.
Please come as quickly as you can.
This is...
Yes, PD Joo.
What?
Mister, can we go faster?
Hurry. Hurry.
PD Joo.
Are you hurt?
It's not me.
President has been in an accident...
What are you talking about?
Sir... Sir!
Sir!
200 Joule.
The viewer ratings 32.3 percent...
It's big hit!
Good work.
I don't trust anyone in the world.
I don't even trust myself sometime.
But I...
Trust you.
Let's think about something warm.
I'm thinking about roasted sweet potatoes.
So, the first thing you thought of was cheap roasted sweet potatoes?
What's wrong with roasted sweet potatoes?
I... really hated them.
Severe poverty...
The father who abandoned me as soon as I as born...
Even my blind mother...
I hated them all and I was so ashamed by them.
So, I told people that...
My parents left me wealth and passed away.
That I grew up happy.
I am... a coward.
He isn't someone who could die so easily.
Sir, please open your eyes.
I said open your eyes.
His heart is beating again.
Back hug.
If you do this, you won't freeze to death.
Okay!
[One year later]
Thank you so much.
Did they come out well?
Wow, you look so good together like the best celebrity couple.
Don't you think so?
Then we are going to renew our contract next year.
Promise?
Honey, smile.
We need to target a water filter commerical.
You want to shoot a commerical again?
What do you mean again?
If we want to surpass Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie...
There is much more we have to do.
I need a praise.
You are so smart.
Smart... smart.
You are so much smarter than Brad Pitt.
Like Brad Pitt...
What about me?
Hum... You are...
Like Angelia Jolie...
Sleepy like Jolie. [Jolie sounds like sleepy in Korean]
Be quiet now...
So a year has passed.
After making much commotion with the scandal...
they became a real couple.
And Director Nam was promoted to the Director of Production.
He made peace with his estranged father.
In Hyung. Say hello to your grandfather.
Hello, grandfather.
So...
Do you recognize your grandfather? So...
Do you recognize your grandfather?
Now everyone knows Director Nam's father is the Chairman of Empire Production.
And Empire Production is still the top production company in the country.
If there were some changes...
tThe President has changed.
Long time no see.
What brought you here without even a call?
Well, I was just passing by and I got into a car accident.
Don't worry. I didn't get hurt.
Do you have 300 won?
President Oh, who was kick out, is working hard to make a come back.
And the producer of Gyeongseong's Morning, Anthony Kim is...
No, my Mr. Kim Bong Dal is...
When Orson Welles first broadcasted a radio drama 'The War of the World' in 1938...
the entire U.S. was enticed by its excitement and wonder.
People gathered around the radio every night to listen to the broadcast.
They were excited and thrilled by the sound of imagination.
They cheered and cried at the same time.
I can say this with confidence.
Soon, the flashy era of video will pass...
And the era of listening, the era of unlimted immagination...
The era of radio dramas will come back again.
That's all.
That's all fine. But is there anybody who could write a radio drama well nowadays?
It's dead genre so I doubt there is anyone who could write a radio drama.
That's the point.
Everyone, I'll introduce you to the Korea's top star writer.
Please let me introduce to you, writer Lee Go Eun.
Hi, I'm writer Lee Go Eun.
I'll give my best.
How was I?
Who will be able to outdo your verbal prowess.
Do you have to wear those sunglasses?
Because I look cool.
But no matter how much I think about it...
I think being a radio writer is not to my advantage.
