QUEEN OF TEARS

EPISODE 15

[ruminative music playing]

[doctor] Slowly count from one to ten.

Baek Hyun-woo.

Baek Hyun-woo.

Baek Hyun-woo.

Don't ever forget his name.

Baek Hyun-woo.

Baek Hyun-woo.

Baek Hyun-woo.

[music swells]

[softly] Baek Hyun-woo.

[music fades]

[foreboding music playing]

[monitor beeping steadily]

[Eun-sung scoffs]

[pensive music playing]

[dramatic, ominous music builds]

[rain pattering]

[music swells]

[music fades]

[nurse 1] I don't understand.

Why did that patient's doctor
and nurses all change?

Apparently, that man is supposed
to be Ms. Hong's fiancé,

and he even spoke
to the director of the hospital.

I heard he donated a lot of money
to the foundation too.

The director has been telling everyone

to watch their mouths
if they don't wanna get sued.

What about that guy from before?
They were getting married.

Well... [chuckles] that man
claims to be her fiancé.

[nurse 2] Who do you think
is the real one?

[Eun-sung sighs]

So you're saying Baek Hyun-woo,
my ex-husband, followed me here?

Mm-hmm. You were about to get the surgery,

then he started to insist
that you revise your will.

You refused.

But there was a strange accident
right before the surgery.

A truck collided with the rental car
we were driving around in.

I believe that
Baek Hyun-woo was behind it.

No way.

Baek Hyun-woo is a dangerous man.
He'll do anything out of spite.

He's threatened me in the past as well.

So how did we survive
after colliding with the truck?

Ah.

[exhales]

Neither of us were in the car
when it happened, fortunately.

But I thought you were in the car,

so I tried to get in
through the window to save you.

[Eun-sung chuckles]

Are you all right?

[Eun-sung breathes deeply]

It's fine. Don't worry.

Right now, I just wanna keep you safe
from Baek Hyun-woo.

That's my priority.

When Hyun-woo tried to divorce you
for someone else, you...

[sighs]

...you even tried to k*ll yourself.

[Hae-in sighs]

You mean I almost k*lled myself
because he cheated?

[Hae-in scoffs]

Hong Hae-in was really quite pathetic.

"Pathetic"? No,
you were just too trusting.

Back then you were married,

so there was nothing
I could do to help you.

But things are different now.
I'm going to protect you.

Whatever it takes.

This is you at the Sambang Reservoir.

Right at the victim's
presumed time of death.

-Why were you there?
-We were supposed to meet,

-but the meeting never happened.
-Is that so?

[camera clicking]

Then why was your hair found
in the victim's car?

I think someone
put that evidence there on purpose.

Oh, yeah?

And what about this? This knife was found
near the scene, and your fingerprints,

along with the victim's blood, were on it.

The shape of the weapon is a perfect match
to the lacerations found on the victim.

-Do you still deny it?
-If that weapon

has my fingerprints all over it,

why would I have
thrown it away near the scene?

What about those wounds on your hands?

I got these in an accident in Germany.

I had to break through
the window of a car.

If I got these because my hand
slipped off the handle of the knife,

the wounds should have been
on the palm of my hand

instead of on the back.

I see.

Look, you can
keep on twisting your story,

but with such clear evidence,
you won't get away with it.

You're an attorney,

so you know it's better to confess now
to lower your sentence.

[sighs]

-[horn honking]
-[car approaching]

[Hae-in] Baek Hyun-woo,
next time this happens,

don't save me.

[pensive music playing]

[music fades]

[wistful music playing]

[sighs]

When Hyun-woo tried to divorce you
for someone else,

you tried to k*ll yourself.

[sighs]

HYUN-WOO
HAE-IN

[music, ticking fades]

ONE MONTH LATER

-[Beom-jun] Hae-in!
-[Seon-hwa] Hae-in!

It's Mom. I'm here. Do you recognize me?

Hae-in, are you doing okay?
Are you feeling better?

Sister, I know it hasn't been easy.

[gasps]

[Hae-in] Hello.

Father.

Mother. Auntie.

Hong Soo-cheol is my name.

Well, I've heard a lot about you all.

We should

-schedule a dinner sometime soon.
-[gasps softly]

-Hae-in.
-[Eun-sung] All right, guys.

We just spent all day on a plane.
Hae-in's pretty tired.

I think she needs to get some rest now.

I don't think you get a say
in any of this.

Hong Soo-cheol.

Please don't act like that
towards Mr. Yoon Eun-Sung.

-Hae-in.
-Hae-in.

This man, do you have any idea
what he did to our family?

They'll probably say
that I kicked your whole family out

and took over Queens Group.

But the late chairman
was sick of watching his children

constantly fighting over his money.

So he gave me his position and entrusted
my mother to manage his assets.

He wanted to give you everything,
but there was no way your parents

or younger brother
would let that happen.

[scoffs] When they found out
you were about to die,

they were all overjoyed.

[pensive music playing]

Absolutely.

I've heard about it.

I've also read news articles.

Based on all that, it didn't
seem like we were the kind of family

that was especially
close with one another.

[Hae-in] Did my family reach out?

Yes, they did. About the same thing.

They wanted your voting rights
for the upcoming meeting.

They're worried
that I'm trying to get you reinstated.

Before the operation,

you asked me to keep your family
as far away from you as I could.

Seeing as they weren't here
for such a big surgery,

our relationship
seems pretty clear to me now.

I must've been

really lonely.

You were lonely.

You were always alone.

But so was I.

You and I are the only ones we can trust.

Don't even trust your family.

Don't do it. Promise me, Hae-in.

They'll take advantage of you

if you're not careful.

[music swells, fades]

I don't know what he said to you,
but don't trust him.

Be reasonable.

Your family is here now. Let's go.

I heard you had a talisman
that you carried around in your wallet

to stifle my energy.

[amusingly tense music playing]

Why, you b*stard.

It's not a lie.

[hesitates] It was my mother's.

[sighs nervously]
Uh, I don't think that's really important.

-Sweetheart...
-You sued me

over our Gwanggyo branch
crossing over onto your property.

But I never went through with it though.

This is our history together.

I don't want you to think that
just 'cause I lost my memory

that everything in the past is dead.

[both sigh]

Hae-in, like you said,
our family had lots of issues.

I believe we can work
through this together.

[Beom-ja] And you especially
shouldn't stay with this guy.

You should be with your husband.

Uh... ex-husband now.

After he got caught
with those divorce papers, right?

Huh?

[music fades]

That happened, it did.

And I guess if you put it that way,
he sounds like an as*h*le.

But that's not the whole story, Hae-in.

He's been arrested
and charged with m*rder.

[somber music playing]

[Hae-in] You'll be here?

You have to be right here
when I open my eyes.

-[music fades]
-[Eun-sung] Why do you wanna go home?

I've prepared a comfortable place
for you to stay.

I wanna try living how I used to,
to see how my old life feels.

I think it could help me
remember some things too.

That's what I want.

I know. I'm just worried your family's
going to find something to hold over you.

Your parents made it really difficult
to get you reinstated.

The directors kept finding fault
with your health.

-It was never-ending, and...
-I know.

I'll be careful.

Thank you for worrying.

You've thanked me enough already.

We swore a vow.

I told you we vowed to get married
once you got the surgery.

[chuckles softly]

Let's do it. Let's get married.

[Eun-sung exhales]

[knocking at door]

[door opens]

You're here. It's been a while.

I need to ask you something.

There was an accident before
Hae-in got surgery in Germany.

-Were you involved?
-Hmm.

[tense music playing]

-[scoffs]
-She didn't die.

What's the issue?

Why are you looking at me like that?

I made it clear to you that
as long as you're by her side,

anything could happen to her.

And nothing has changed.

Is that a threat?

Because I have some of my own.

Right here.

This is where the chairman fell over.

I saw everything you did

because it was
right in front of this painting.

[music swells]

[tense music continues]

I have the evidence in safekeeping.

So if you even think about
laying a finger on her,

I can promise you this.

I will send you straight to jail,
just like I did with Baek Hyun-woo.

Is that so? So you'd threaten your mother?

Like this?

Yeah.

Now I'm the obstacle in your way.

So try me.

See what happens.

[music swells]

-[music fades]
-[Seon-hwa sighs]

What are we gonna do if she decides
to actually marry Mr. Yoon?

Oh, come on.

From the looks of it earlier,
seems possible.

She's totally different.

No. Hae-in wouldn't do that.

I also had her followed this whole time.

[Conan] "Hong Gil-dong Detective Agency"?

Uh-huh. Gil-dong's the name
of a family ancestor.

Everyone tells me that with my talents,

I'm like a modern Hong Gil-dong.

And that's how I got the name.

-Ah.
-[door opens]

Uh, What? Ten million won for now,
and 1.5 for Mr. Kim, understand?

I was bored when I bought it.

-You can cut that out. He's a detective.
-[chuckles sheepishly] Ah.

That was just a cover.

-Huh.
-Agent Nam, you can come out now.

-[amusing music playing]
-[gasps]

I was staking you out.

[laughter]

Yes, these two
are the dynamic duo of our office.

-[agent] Hmm.
-Because they're so average-looking,

they're able to blend
into any environment.

Detective Hong is the brains
of our operation.

She's always reading.

She even has experience
running a book-related business.

Uh, what kind of business was...

Uh, it was a comic book café.

Comic books are like a database
of anything that could ever happen

in the modern world.

It's why I'm a detective to this day.

So what have you done
so far as a detective?

Uh, anything I would...

I think you should

-maybe look into that for yourself.
-[chuckles]

A competent detective wouldn't
have to ask me that question directly.

Oh, by the way, what sort of things
do you get reimbursed for?

Detective, I'll resolve
this matter for you.

How much do you get for meals?

It's 8,000 won for us, which is quite low.

Chinese food is expensive
in our neighborhood.

-[agent] What?
-Inflation sucks, you know?

Instead of catching culprits,
we should be catching up with inflation.

-A man of few words.
-Hmm.

Right. "Few words." Write that down.

-[door opens]
-[agent] Huh? Oh.

-Ah, here we are. Hi.
-[agents] Hi.

-[music fades]
-Mmm.

Thank you. Yeah, thank you.

Who are they?

Ah, these are the detectives that followed
Hae-in while she was in Germany.

-Oh.
-No matter the job,

we offer the lowest prices.
We're Hong Detective Agency.

We track the target,
but we also analyze their motives

and provide you with viable solutions.

We provide full service through
our system of Total Human Tailing.

Oh, my.

Your service? It sounds good.

[chuckles]

-[Beom-ja] Hmm.
-Okay, so, in Germany what'd you find?

That's a good question.
Let us put your minds at ease.

We are going to tell you all about it.

[pensive music playing]

[sighs]

Hmm?

Why are the drawers empty?

[sighs]

We had separate rooms too.

I see.

[sighs]

[music fades]

-[sighs]
-[beeps]

["Waiting" by Younha
playing over earphones]

[sighs]

[song continues]

[clears throat]

We have similar taste in music.

-[beeps]
-[song stops]

Sure, that's possible.

What kind of person is he?

I need to understand my enemy fully.

Yet I don't know myself, do I?

Then,

I should continue to study.

Right.

Behind glass would be
the safest way to meet him.

This monster cheated on his wife,
stalked the woman he divorced.

He was even willing to commit m*rder.

[sighs]

And just how low
were my standards? [scoffs]

-Why on earth would I ever want to...
-[keys jingling]

[door clangs open]

[soulful music playing]

[door closes]

Hae-in.

Have a seat, Mr. Baek Hyun-woo.

[music fades]

[inhales]

-How are you?
-Doing just fine, thank you.

The surgery went well, right?

Are you still getting treated?
Are you in pain still?

Are you worrying about me right now?

I just...

I was scared for you.

Well, that's funny.

You must think the surgery
turned me into a real idiot.

And I missed you.

[melancholic music playing]

[sighs]

I know about everything.

What your intentions were
when you married me,

how you prepared for our divorce
and what you did to me afterwards.

I heard it all and I confirmed it.

Hae-in.

I don't know what
Eun-sung's been telling you,

but none of that is true.

I know this must be confusing.

Just please trust me...

No, I trust the evidence.

You drew up divorce papers behind my back,

and now you're a m*rder suspect.

That's all the evidence I need.

Then why did you come here today?

You've confirmed everything.
You know everything.

What is it that brought you here?

Aren't you here because you have doubts?

The reason I'm here...

I'm here...

So, I...

can rid myself of you once and for all.

To be honest, I was a bit curious.

But after this,

-I won't be seeing any more of you.
-[Hyun-woo] No.

We'll see each other again.

I'm not gonna wear out,

and I'll continue to be by your side.

I'm not sure why you're so confident
when you're in jail.

[music fades]

Because I promised...

to be there for you after the surgery.

I shouldn't have left you alone.

And I'm sorry for making you

visit me in here.

But...

I swear I'll get out of here.

I swear it.

-So, Hae-in...
-[door opens]



Remember to eat and try not to worry.

Stick with your treatments too.



Focus on your health. Do you understand?

[crying] You have to stay healthy.

All right?

Hae-in.

[clangs, echoes]

[footsteps receding]

[sighs]

KOREA CORRECTIONAL SERVICE

[sighing]

[sighs deeply]
I can't believe I almost responded.

He's quite something.

He had me hooked,
even in a prison uniform.

Maybe that's why I got involved
with him in the first place.

He has an extraordinary... way with words.

[stirring music plays]

[sighs]

[shop bell jingles]

[Hae-in sighs]

I have nausea. I need something.

My heart is racing.

I feel nauseous.

And my head is all over the place.

Just a moment.

[mellow music playing]

[breathing shakily]

I'm so dizzy I feel like I could cry.

Thank you very much.

[music fades]

[sighs]

Where were you at, huh?!

[sighs sharply]

What are you doing here?

Answer my question. Where were you?

I don't want to answer.

I'd like you to leave.

I'm uncomfortable with people
in my house while I'm out.

[Eun-sung exhales]

I'm sorry.

Still, you need treatment.

And as I said before,

there have been multiple incidents
where you were targeted.

Yeah. You said
Baek Hyun-woo was behind all that.

But he's locked up
in a jail cell right now.

[pensive music playing]

It's just that...

I'm nervous.

Something always happens to you
whenever you're out on your own.

I'm sorry... for worrying you.

All right.

Get some rest.

[ominous music playing]

-[beeps]
-[music swells]

[music fades]

[Secretary Na] Huh?

-[men exclaim]
-[Secretary Na] Oh!

[pensive music playing]

Huh. Well, I guess the rumors of them
getting married are true.

Baek Hyun-woo and her are really done?

Everyone, be careful.

Especially you, Secretary Na.
We all signed NDAs.

Why bother being careful?

She's not even my boss now.

I won't be seeing her.

-[man] Ms. Hong!
-[music fades]

[panting] Hello.

Oh, um, I heard about what happened.

Are you doing all right now?

Yes.

I'm so happy for you. What a relief.

You paid for the surgery
and the hospitalization bills

for my daughter.

Uh, we finally decided on a name.

So-yul.

So-yul is healthy now too.

That's good.

I'll never forget what you did.
Thank you so much.

[elevator dings, doors open]

-[Hae-in] Did I do that?
-[secretary] Excuse me?

Did I really do what that guy said I did?

I'm sorry, I'm not sure.
I didn't work here yet.

[whimsical music playing]

Thank you for keeping your promise.

Promise? What?

You promised to return
before I finished paying off this outfit.

You were my secretary?

Yes.

Then you must know a lot about me.

That's true. Think of me
as an external hard drive in human form.

Hmm. Then,

what kind of person was I?

Uh... Let's see. You...

[Min-ji] Ms. Hong. [pants]

-[music fades]
-Excuse me.

I was so glad to hear that you were back.

I hope you're feeling better.

[softly] She's an employee
that you used to know.

I'm good. Thank you.

Thanks to what you did,

we were able to get my mother treated,
so she passed away painlessly.

You sent flowers to the funeral,
you helped pay for the funeral,

and you even showed up in person.

You might not remember it,
but I'll never forget it.

You're amazing.

Thank you.

[footsteps receding]

[exhales]

A CEO who sends flowers
to an employee's family's funeral herself.

I was quite the philanthropist.

-Director Baek, well, he...
-Hmm?

Uh, nothing.

You were amazing.

Now it's time for us
to weed out all the parasites

that keep gnawing at our sales figures.

Everyone liked you.

[quirky music playing]

What am I looking at? Is someone new here?

[chuckles] No, really. I'm curious.

Please tell me.

Who was responsible for this and why?!

And you were kind.

I was something of a...
Mother Teresa is what it sounds like.

Yes, well...

I knew it. I had a feeling I was.

Just today I saw a stray cat
and felt like giving it some food.

So I went out of my way
to buy some and fed it myself.

It's almost as if I'm anxious
to make things right.

I might have forgotten everything,

but my nature... hasn't changed.

[chuckles]

I'm looking forward to working with you.

-Huh?
-You're a human hard drive, right?

I'm like a motherboard that's been reset.

So I need an external hard drive
that has all my data saved.

Ah.

Uh, I'm currently appointed
at another department.

I'll take care of that.

[music fades]

-First, the prosecution's evidence record.
-Hmm? Why?

The other side will benefit
from having lots of evidence.

So if there's any evidence
that they refuse to submit,

that would strengthen our case.

[intriguing music playing]

So the prosecution excluded
from their evidence record

a complete workup of the trace evidence
from the crime scene.

Mmm, a piece of green fiber.

-Hang on, that doesn't belong to Hyun-woo.
-They didn't submit it.

It must be from the clothes
the real k*ller wore.

[inhales sharply]
That's what we have to find out.

[Hyun-woo] The kitchen knife
that was used as the weapon

is the same one from my house in Seoul.

But how did they get it
from your house, though?

-Maybe they stole it.
-I couldn't

find it a few days
before we left for Germany.

I didn't think anything of it.

-It was stolen.
-I'll look through

-the security camera footage.
-Look at the dashcam footage,

from the buses running nearby
at the time of the m*rder.

Look for any suspicious cars,

or they might have even taken the bus too.

-[intriguing music playing]
-[bus approaching]

How many days do you keep the footage for?

Sir, may I ask you?

Is there a security camera by the fishery?

[camera clicking]

-[exhales]
-[music fades]

Father, I chased away
the one on the roof too.

-Good.
-Chased away what?

Some crow making noise.

It's good you did that
since today is the trial.

I guess.

I have faith that they will rule
in Hyun-woo's favor.

Even so, I think...
it's off-putting, all that cawing.

-Just eat, for goodness' sake.
-[Du-gwan] Mmm.

Honey. Bong-ae.

-Wrapping seaweed around rice.
-What's wrong?

It's bad luck to do that.

Hey, today, wrapping, mixing,
or dunking is off limits.

We can't have it.

And, um, try not to drop anything.

Uh, if you drop something,
it's a bad sign too.

[door slides opens]

[Soo-cheol sighs] Did you sleep well?

Gosh.

Da-hye said she's gonna sleep in
since she's feeling tired.

[Soo-cheol, softly] Gosh!

[dramatic music plays]

[blows air]

[sputtering] Uh...

-[amusing music playing]
-They didn't drop. You saw them.

Soo-cheol, he just decided to place them.

Uh, on... on... on the floor,

just like... like this. Yeah, yeah.

That's right. Yeah.
You just put them here like this.

-Isn't that right?
-[Du-gwan] Yeah.

[chuckling] I knocked them on the floor.

But I'm not picky about those things.
Don't worry, okay?

[sighs] I'll wrap some rice
in dried seaweed and put that in the soup.

[Soo-cheol slurping]

Oh, this soup is so delicious. [chuckles]

[dramatic music swells]

-[exhales]
-[music fades]

[prosecutor] It's confirmed the defendant
was near the scene

at the time of the victim's death
between 8:00 and 9:00 pm.

The defendant's hair was found
inside the victim's car

and the victim's blood
and the defendant's fingerprints

were found on the m*rder weapon.

The prosecution indicts
the defendant Baek Hyun-woo

on the charge of m*rder.

[judge 1] Defendant,
do you concede the charge?

I deny it, Your Honor.

It's true I was supposed to meet
the victim that day,

so I went to our meeting place.

But the victim wasn't there.

Therefore, I did not see him that day.

Counsel, you may begin your defense.

Your Honor, from the beginning,
the defendant has consistently maintained

that he has never committed
this terrible crime.

That means the real m*rder*r
is still out there.

Please focus on the m*rder weapon,
which the prosecution is presenting

as the most conclusive evidence.

The defendant's fingerprints and the
victim's blood were found on the weapon,

but also...
they found a green fiber as well.

And it doesn't match
the defendant's clothes that day.

But there's no reason that a piece
of fiber has to belong to the m*rder*r.

You're correct. However,

what if the person wearing that clothing

was seen leaving the defendant's house

after stealing the m*rder weapon
and was found

near the scene of the crime
on the day of the m*rder?

[gripping music playing]

[hushed chatter]

It's pretty high-definition.

It's a knife.

[man] You're right. It is a knife.

You can see that it's the same knife
used in the m*rder.

And he happens
to be wearing green clothing.

Now the next video.

It shows the same man
burning a button-up shirt and gloves

on the day of the m*rder,

two kilometers away
from the scene of the m*rder.

This is a comparative analysis

of the leftover burnt fibers
and the fibers on the m*rder weapon.

Using a spectrophotometer,
we confirmed that the two fibers

were of the same material.

In addition, the victim's blood was found
on the button-up shirt.

That's indirect evidence.
The only fingerprints

found on the m*rder weapon
belongs to the defendant.

What about evidence
that's even clearer than fingerprints?

For example, videos and pictures

that the real m*rder*r
took of the crime scene.

[music fades]

There must be pictures and video
that he took himself.

We have to get his phone.

You think he would've recorded
evidence of the crime scene?

If he kills people professionally,
then yes.

He needs proof to get paid.

All he has to do is click on this link.

[cell phone vibrates]

YOUR ITEM WILL BE DELIVERED AT 2:00 PM

COPYING...

It worked! We're copying his phone.
We have it here.

[Beom-ja] Amazing!

These are pictures and videos
of the crime scene

that were on the m*rder*r's phone
from an anonymous source.

I submit them as evidence.

[prosecutor] Objection! This evidence
hasn't been discussed in advance.

Also, it may have been
collected illegally. Please dismiss it.

This material will change
the whole trajectory of the case.

[tense music playing]

[judge 1] There's nothing
prohibiting it, is there?

-[judge 2] I don't think so.
-[judge 3 mumbles]

[music intensifies]

BENCH

We'll allow it.

[Soo-cheol] Yes!

[cries]

[sighs in relief]

[imperceptible]

[reporter] The real culprit behind
the Sambang Reservoir m*rder

has been arrested.

The Busan Coast Guard caught Mr. Yoo
attempting to flee on a fishing boat

nine miles south of the country
at around 11:00 pm last night.

Mr. Yoo is claiming
he did not have an accomplice,

that he committed the m*rder by himself.

Meanwhile, Mr. Baek,

who was arrested
as a suspect for this case,

was found not guilty at today's trial
and was released immediately.

-[man] Why did we come here? It's cold.
-[music fades]

Why isn't he coming out?

Maybe something's wrong.

He'll be out soon. Don't worry.

Tell me, what exactly are we doing here?

I can't sit by when the guy
who used to stalk me

has been released into the world.

That's not what he was...

Honestly, you seem like
the stalker right now.

-Hey, what are you...
-He's out.

-[old woman] Goodness, you're out.
-[indistinct chatter]

[Mi-seon] There you are!

Ah, our youngest brother!

[Hyeon-tae and Mi-seon sobbing]

I can't believe this really happened.

[Hyeon-tae] You're not hurt anywhere?

I'm fine.

-[Hyeon-tae] Oh, that's great.
-I'm all right.

I never thought someone
could get in this much trouble.

Hyeon-tae and I had small troubles.

We never had to deal
with anything like this.

Hyun-woo didn't get in trouble.
He's an innocent bystander.

[Mi-seon] Yeah, you're right.

Yeah. Everything's all right now, okay?

[Mi-seon and Hyeon-tae continues sobbing]

Really? He's close with his siblings.

[Secretary Na sighs]

"Looks like he's close with his family."

[quirky music playing]

-Hey, eat this. Here.
-Ah, no. No, no.

-It's fine.
-[Hyeon-tae] Huh?

He must not eat tofu then.

"Doesn't eat tofu."

Does he hate tofu?

-Why does he hate it? It's good.
-What are you doing?

[gasps]

[music stops]

Really, what are you doing?

[music resumes]

Did he see? Do you think
Hyun-woo saw me just now?

He's gone.

[car doors closing]

-He left?
-[car engine starts]

[Hae-in sighs]

Good. We should trail him from a distance.

What? You are a stalker.

What are you saying?

It's just that... I need to see
if this guy is up to anything weird.

I need to see his every move. That's why.

That's exactly what stalking means.

How about you start driving now? Let's go.

[sighs]

Look, I told you to hang the banner
right across there.

That's what I'm doing. If you're scared,
you can get down. [clicks tongue]

[Chun-sik] No, I have to spot it for you.

[sighs]

Are you sure you'll be okay now, hyung?

Definitely.

My approach to this whole thing is,
"The owner went nuts."

HYUN-WOO DISCHARGED
HALF PRICE SALE!

[Du-gwan] Oh, you're getting this too.
[chuckles] Here we go.

[chuckling] Ah, dumplings, I see.
Good choice.

-[old woman] Yes.
-And these are free.

Thank you. You're so sweet.

-[Du-gwan] I should thank you.
-And congratulations.

Thanks. I appreciate it. [laughs]

-Take care.
-Hmm.

Yes, please take care.

[indistinct chatter]

My marketing philosophy.
You get it, don't you?

You bet. It's about getting
love from our customers, not money.

Yes, absolutely.

When I get back,
that's how I'll run the company.

Yes, yes. [chuckles]

-We got this.
-[both chuckle]

Excuse me.
Are these buns half price as well?

Steamed buns? Wait.

Back away from there. I'm coming out.

They're free. Eat them all.

[all cheering]

And these. These are free too.

He'll regret this tomorrow.

Hell, he's gonna regret this tonight.

-Yeah.
-[car approaching]

-[Du-gwan] Hey, line up.
-[Soo-cheol] Hyun-woo must be here.

-[Chun-sik] Yeah.
-[woman] Goodness! Hey! Hey!

YONGDU-RI SUPERMARKET

[Chun-sik] Honey.

Hyun-woo.

[heartfelt music playing]

Father, how are you?

Fine.

Now that you're here.

Father, I'm sorry.

What are you apologizing for?

You did nothing wrong. So don't say sorry.

This must have been difficult, Hyun-woo.

You did good.

-[Bang-sil] Congratulations.
-[woman 2] You've been through so much.

[indistinct chatter]

Thanks, everyone.

Isn't that Hong Soo-cheol?

Yes, he's here to avoid conflict
between his wife and your mother.

But why is he staying here?

The house of his sister's
ex-husband's parents can't be

comfortable.

[Secretary Na] Maybe it is for him.

They're all laughing.

They're such strange people.

[Soo-cheol] Wow. It's snowing!

[all exclaiming]

-[sizzling]
-[liquid bubbling]

[music fades]

Honey. Bong-ae.

Mom.

You're here. [chuckles]

There's sweet bean porridge,
your favorite.

[Bong-ae sighs]

-[emotional music playing]
-[cries]

You must've been so worried.

Hey, not at all.

I did just fine.

Things work out if you make the effort.

I know, I know.

I was very worried, though.

-[Hyeon-tae sobbing] Me too.
-[crying] So was I.

[Bong-ae] Oh, my baby, my baby.
It must've been so hard for you.

[Du-gwan] We were all so worried
for you, Hyun-woo.

-[sobbing continues]
-[music fades]

[Bong-ae] The b*stard...

His parents look nice.

He prefers sweet red-bean porridge,
but he hates tofu.

[scoffs] He has the palate of a child.

-[quirky music playing]
-"Likes...

sweet red-bean porridge."

I feel like I'm watching my old self.

What?

This is what I did
when I was obsessed with BTS.

Look, real love isn't... [inhales]

"Wow, he's so wonderful."

Instead, it's, "What?
Uh, what is he doing?"

That's how it always begins.

Tell me, were you always so chatty
and open with me as your boss?

Yes.

[scoffs]

Guess I was quite cool.

You can't remember anything?

You said I could have 100 million won.

That's not true.

-[music fades]
-Mmm.

You may not have your memory,
but you've got good instincts.

Then why don't you know?

What?

Who you really used to love
before the surgery.

Who is it?

[inhales]

Well, my job is on the line,
so I'm gonna stay quiet.

But let me just say this.

Your body will take you
where your heart really lies.

[Secretary Na sighs]

[wheels rattling]

[curious music playing]

Hmm.

[music turns hopeful]

[nurse 1] What's this?

[nurse 2] Mr. Ivan found it
in the dumpster earlier,

so he left it here.

-[nurse 1] Is there a name on it?
-No.

It's also written in a foreign language,
so I couldn't read it if I tried.

Then why would we bother
finding the owner? Just throw it away.

I think I know why.

Mr. Baek's attorney called in from Korea.

He said that if we find a notebook,
we should return it to its owner.

[music fades]

-[Yeong-song] See you, guys. Take care.
-[men chattering]

Ah, hyung. Look, there she is again.

-[car door opens]
-[captivating music plays]

[dreamy music playing]

[car door closes]

Auntie, do you live here?

[music fades]

What's that?
No, I'm here to congratulate Hyun-woo.

The catering service will be here soon.
Should I go set up at town hall?

-Beom-ja, you're here.
-[gasps] Oh, my!

[chuckling] I didn't see you there,
Yeong-song.

It's gonna be great.
I've prepared lots of prizes.

-You should come by later.
-Sure.

Prizes? What kind?

Mmm, health supplements,
a massager, things like that.

-The top prize is the new washing machine.
-Are you serious?

-Amazing.
-Sounds great.

We were thinking of
getting a new washing machine.

Ooh! [laughs]

So this is how a conglomerate's daughter
spends her money.

In my next life,
I'm gonna live like Beom-ja.

Is that so? [chuckles]
What do you mean by that?

All the cash, plus the looks.
And three times you've been married.

-That's what I envy the most.
-[laughter]

[laughs awkwardly]
Let's not talk about that.

Not everyone can get away with that.

-What? What?
-Then again, what does that matter

when you still refuse
to buy a new washing machine?

Hey, how about you say that
to someone who's never been married?

Are you really going to stay single?
That teacher seems really nice.

Bang-sil worked hard
to arrange this blind date for you.

What do you think?

Hold on a second. Don't even ask.

Yeong-song has had plenty of time
to think about this.

-He just needs to do it.
-[laughs]

[woman 2] Right.
Yeong-song, how's next week?

[Soo-cheol] Perfect.

Quick question.
Can you point me to the town hall?

LUCKY DRAWS

Oh, wow. Isn't this great?

CELEBRATING BAEK HYUN-WOO'S DISCHARGE

-[upbeat music playing over speakers]
-[all cheering]

[laughs] To Hyun-woo!

[music stops]

Now, everyone, thank you all for your time

and for showing up to this wonderful
celebration for my dear brother

now that he is a free man!

[all cheering]

And now, for the highlight of the day,

we'll begin the tofu-cutting ceremony.

[all cheering]

-Hurry up. Get up there.
-Go on.

-You too.
-Come on.

-[Hyeon-tae] Go.
-Do it with us.

-Here.
-Oh, yes.

All right. Three, two, one.

[joyful music playing]

Wow, that's clean, yeah.

-[woman 1 cheering] That's right!
-Congratulations.

-Thank you. I won the TV!
-[Hyun-woo laughing]

[woman 1] I won a TV! [laughing]

On to the next prize, which is
a package of health supplements. Yes!

[Hyeon-tae laughs]

And the winning number will be selected
by my dear sister, Mi-seon.

Come on up. Come on.

Hurry up! Come on up and draw a number.

[laughing] Go on, pick one out,

And the lucky number is...

[Mi-seon imitates drum roll]

-Number 17! [laughs] Who is it?
-[Chun-sik] 17?

It's Bang-sil. It's Bang-sil!

I got it! It's me! It's me! [laughing]

-[Chun-sik laughs]
-Bang-sil!

[laughing]

[Bang-sil and Mi-seon laughing]

Congratulations.

-Thank you. It'll make me even prettier.
-Oh, come on.

Get back to your seat.

-[all laughing]
-[Hyeon-tae] Congratulations.

-Congratulations.
-[Bang-sil] This is great.

-[Hyeon-tae] Only the prize...
-I've never tried this.

...for first place left,
the washing machine.

And Ms. Hong,
who sponsored us with all these gifts,

will pick the winning number.
Give her a round of applause.

-[crowd cheering]
-Forty-seven, forty-seven, please!

[crowd applauding]

[Beom-ja clears throat]

-[man laughs]
-[quirky music playing]

-[Beom-ja chuckling]
-[indistinct rattling]

[ba*ls clattering]

-And the winner is...
-[Soo-cheol] Yes! Who is it?

[gasps] Number five!
Congratulations. [laughs]

-Who is it?
-Ah, jeez.

-[Chun-sik] Oh. Hyung!
-Oh, it's Yeong-song!

-You got it!
-[Chun-sik] It's yours!

-You won it! [laughs] Oh, Yeong-song!
-[Chun-sik] It's yours!

-You got it! It's yours.
-Yeong-song.

[woman 2] Wow. [laughs]

You take it.

-[woman 3] Really?
-[Chun-sik] What?

What? I don't need one.
But you could use it.

-Really? You sure.
-[Yeong-song] Mm-hmm.

-[woman 3] Oh, my God. Yeong-song!
-[Chun-sik] Really?

[woman 3 laughing]

-Yeong-song! [laughing]
-[Chun-sik] Ah, hyung!

[woman 3] A washing machine!

[laughing excitedly]

-We got a washing machine?!
-[music fades]

[Chun-sik laughing]

YONGDU-RI COMMUNITY HALL

[Beom-ja] Excuse me, Yeong-song.

[pants]

Yes, Beom-ja?

Were you trying to prove a point in there?

You won it fair and square.
The prize is yours.

Uh, I've already got one that works.

That one's really old.
It shakes. I saw it myself.

Well, clothes still come out clean.

[sighs in exasperation]

This is the latest one.

It's got AI. It even washes
your comforter and your shoes.

Ah, I see.

[huffs]

"Ah, I see." Is that all?

You should never pass up a good thing.

That's true for washing machines
and people. Don't you understand?

[sighs]

When I return to Seoul,
I'm never going to come back here.

Are you really going to let me go?

What if I never see you again?

What would be the point
of a fourth marriage?

So you're getting married again?

[sighs] You really don't get it, do you?

[sighs in exasperation]

[Yeong-song sighs]

[inhales sharply]

I'll say this one time only.

I have feelings for you.

Actually, strong feelings. [inhales]

And what are you going to say to that?

Once I'm gone, that's it. This is over.

[hesitating] Uh, so...

-Uh... [sighs]
-[footsteps approaching]

-[Hyeon-tae sputters]
-[Yeong-song clears throat]

Ah, um, Ms. Hong.

Oh, one moment.
I have something I need to ask Yeong-song.

-I'll be back inside soon.
-Uh, that's not...

Mmm? What?

[Hyeon-tae] Yes. Well, yes.

[hesitating] Uh, yeah...

Yes, it's wireless, and it's connected
to the big speaker inside, so...

-[Hyeon-tae] Mmm...
-[playfully tense music playing]

[Beom-ja] That's true for washing machines
and people. Don't you understand?

When I return to Seoul,
I'm never going to come back here.

Are you really going to let me go?

What if I never see you again?

What would be
the point of a fourth marriage?

-Whoa!
-She's so cool!

-Wow!
-Whoa! [laughing]

[Yeong-song] So you're
getting married again?

-Is he stupid or what?
-Yeong-song still doesn't get it. [laughs]

[Beom-ja] You really don't get it, do you?

[crowd exclaiming, laughing]

[Beom-ja] I'll say this one time.

-I have feelings for you.
-[all gasping]

-[Beom-ja] Actually, strong feelings.
-[all] Whoa!

[Beom-ja] What will you say to that?

-Once I'm gone, that's it.
-[exhales sharply]

-[Beom-ja] This is over.
-[woman gasps] Oh, my.

[sighs]

How embarrassing for the family.

-[crowd clamoring]
-[woman 2] Why is she looking?

-[gasping]
-[window opening]

Hey, Yeong-song! Make the right choice!

-[laughter]
-[Mi-seon] Come here.

Auntie! It's all right.

It's all right. It's fine. Don't worry.

-[Beom-ja gasps]
-Auntie, where are you going?

-[crowd giggling]
-[Soo-cheol] No!

-Run after her!
-Yeong-song, you got this.

Go get her, buddy!

What are you waiting for?
Come on, come on, come on!

-Run! Now! Go!
-[Mi-seon] Gosh, come on!

-Ah!
-[Du-gwan] Yeong-song!

-[music swells, fades]
-[Mi-seon] Go after her!

Baek Hyun-woo applied to be reinstated
to the personnel committee.

He was found not guilty at his trial,
which means we can't tell them to refuse.

I swear, this guy's like
a freaking c*ck.

-We can't get rid of him.
-[man 1] Tell me about it.

[Mr. Han] There's an even bigger issue.

The LPs are gonna meet in New York

to vote the issue of dismissing
the executive director.

[tense music playing]

Come again. What was that?

When the executive director

doesn't provide investors
with accurate accounting data,

the LPs have a right to call a meeting
to have the director dismissed...

Exactly!

So who gave the LPs that data?

Baek Hyun-woo, was it? Was it?

[hesitating] No, it was...

This one is for my inauguration
as executive director.

Ah. For the ceremony.

[exhales]

Wow. It suits you just perfectly.

It certainly does.

I should have done this long ago.

[ominous music playing]

Tell the bank to make the transaction
twice as much as last time up to 4.2%.

[Mr. Han] All at once?

We have to secure
as many stakes as we can.

So they won't be able to fire me.

-Oh, all right.
-[line disconnects]

Ah. This time, he bought 4.2%.
He's worried.

He should be. The slush fund
is being released out into the world.

But you still haven't found the evidence
that Mr. Pyeon was supposed to give you.

No. [inhales]

I did find other materials
that can prove Eun-sung and his people

committed investment fraud
worth two trillion won

-to steal the Queens' management rights.
-Oh, my. Who gave this to you?

[engine idling]

-[inhales]
-[handle clicks]

[Da-hye sighs heavily]

You have it?

[envelope rustles]

I wired it from America.
That's everything.

[scoffs] Really?

That's the cash I got from Seul-hee.
All of it. I'm broke now.

-[grunts] sh*t!
-[punches seat]

I want all the cash
you returned to the Hongs.

No. All of that belongs to them.

[Jun-h* sighs]

The flash drive?

Da-hye gave you that flash drive,
didn't she?

Yes.

[Da-hye] I told you.

It was my lifeline, so I kept it secret.

Oh, is that right? [chuckles]

[sighs] Oh, you idiot.

Well, now you're
going to die because of it.

[envelope rustles]

-What?
-See, Ms. Moh can't stand you anymore.

I let you off the hook
because you were pretty.

But you know how Ms. Moh is.

She hates it even more
when the girls are pretty.

[chuckles]

-Hey, what are you doing?
-[tense music playing]

-Hold still, you!
-Open the door!

Hey, stop it!

[Jun-h* grunts]

[gripping music playing]

[Jun-h*] That f*cking loser.

-Hey. Start the car! Stop it!
-[Da-hye] Open the door!

Stop! Stop the car!

-[Jun-h* grunts] Hold still!
-[Da-hye grunts]

[Jun-h* grunts]

Stop the car! Let her go now!

[Da-hye] Huh? Huh?

Soo-cheol.

Open the door!

[bicycle rattles]

[gripping music continues]

-[sighs]
-[bell dinging]

[softly] sh*t.

[tires screeching]

[Da-hye gasping]

[Da-hye yelps]

-[yelps]
-Are you crazy?

-[Da-hye yelps]
-[Jun-h*] Do something!

-[Soo-cheol and Jun-h* grunt]
-[Da-hye yelps]

Hey, you little sh*t!
I told you to let her go!

[Jun-h*] You're not going anywhere.

Soo-cheol, just run!

[Jun-h*] You got a death wish?

[Soo-cheol grunting]

Soo-cheol!

-Soo-cheol!
-[Soo-cheol grunts]

-[groans]
-[Da-hye whimpers]

[Jun-h*] Ah, sh*t.

Ah, Mr. Hong.
Don't be difficult, just leave now.

Huh?

[men grunting]

Please run, you're gonna get k*lled!

-[groans]
-Don't be a hero, Soo-cheol.

-Just run! sh*t.
-[man] Hold still!

[Soo-cheol grunts, groans]

[Jun-h* grunts]

[gasps] Oh, God.

[both grunting]

[music fades]

-Ah, sh*t.
-[Da-hye crying]

-[groans]
-[grim music playing]

[all grunting]

[Da-hye] Soo-cheol!

[both grunting]

-[groans]
-[men grunting]

Just die! Die!

-[Da-hye] No!
-[groans]

-[Jun-h*] Die!
-[Da-hye] Honey!

[music swells, fades]

["More Than Enough"
by Kim Tae-rae playing]

[both laughing]

-...jump out of... Whoa!
-Ah.

Da-hye!

Geon-u!

What happens when my loved ones
are in danger and I have to protect them?

I can't even think about that.

-[Da-hye crying]
-[blows landing]

[laughing] sh*t.

You should take a fall.
That way, your enemy will start to think,

"How pathetic! I'm so much stronger
than this guy is. It's ridiculous."

He's done for.

-[Jun-h*] Eh, let's go.
-[Soo-cheol groaning]

-[gasps]
-[Da-hye whimpering]

Soo-cheol!

[Hyeon-tae] Soo-cheol, you're gonna
wait until the moment

that they let their guard down
and then, wham! You drop 'em.

[song swells]

Hey, let's go. Hey, move the bike.

[both grunt]

-[pants]
-[grunting continues]

[thumps]

-[grunts]
-[man groans]

[Chun-sik] Hey, hey! What's going on?

[whistle blowing]

[panting] Soo-cheol.
Soo-cheol, open your eyes.

-Soo-cheol!
-[grunts, pants]

-[man grunts]
-Whoa, whoa!

[man 2] What the hell?

[both grunting]

[Chun-sik] Uh, sh*t.

Police, we're at
the railroad crossing at Yongdu-ri.

-Come quickly, please. Quickly.
-Soo-cheol.

Come on, wake up.

Soo-cheol. [sniffles]

Is he dying? [cries]

Soo-cheol. Soo-cheol.

Soo-cheol, no.

Honey, come on, please.

I love you, Soo-cheol, so much.

[crying] I love you.

[exhales weakly]

I love you.

-[crying] Oh, God.
-[Soo-cheol grunts]

Oh, honey.

-[Soo-cheol chuckles]
-[Da-hye crying]

-[exhales]
-[Da-hye] Honey, I'm sorry.

-[sobbing]
-[elevator dings]

[song fades]

[playfully tense music playing]

Wait.

What am I doing? I'm the CEO.

[scoffs]

Ridiculous.

Coming back to work?
Who does he think he is?

Maybe I should ask.

[clears throat]

Listen, I think we should talk.

[sighs]

-So do I.
-[music fades]

You got reinstated?

Yes.

For what reason?

Because of me?

This is my job.

-There are other places you could work.
-Well, I think that's up to me.

I don't want you around.

It's uncomfortable.

So quit your job here
and go work someplace else,

'cause having you here,

it makes me sick.

What's the matter?

You left me when I was at my lowest point.

And now that I'm vulnerable
and can't remember anything,

you thought you could charm me
into trusting you again? Is that it?

[clicks tongue]

You said you have a very distinct type
when it comes to men,

so I should trust you to figure it out.

Although I did think
you would recognize me sooner.

-What are you talking about?
-But I'm okay.

I think it's only natural.

You're even more shameless
in person, Mr. Baek.

Did my family promise you something?
Why are you so persistent?

-Hae-in...
-Don't use my first name, Mr. Baek.

In the past,
you may have been able to fool me

with those eyes and that voice of yours.
Not today.

This is the last time we see each other.

[Hae-in sighs]

[rattling]

[sighs]

What are you doing?

Mr. Baek, don't do this.

[amusing music playing]

-It's...
-How dare you?

You can't grab me like this. [gasps]

Let me go. [gasps]

[exhales]

[sighs heavily]

[music fades]

SENDER

[Grace] Hae-in!

[sighing] Oh!

Girl, it's Grace. How are you?

Goodness! You really
have forgotten everything.

Aw!

I'm the one you liked and trusted
more than anyone else in the world.

-Mmm!
-[squeaks]

Mmm! Oh!

What?

I'm sorry, Grace.

But for some reason, I don't think
we're quite as close as you say.

-What's wrong, Hae-in? We're very close.
-I'm sorry.

[Grace inhales]

How did she know?

Wow. She really has good instincts.

Then how did Eun-sung fool her? [gasps]

[cell phone vibrates]

YOU'VE GOT MAIL

What's this?

THE AQUA
SENDER: HONG HAE-IN

Me?

[pensive music playing]

I sent an invitation to myself?

-Thank you.
-Mmm.

[device beeps, thumps]

You can enter right this way.

All right.

-[mic beeps]
-She's headed inside now.

[pensive music continues]

[Hae-in] Why is no one else
here right now?

-What are you doing here, Mr. Baek?
-I was about to ask you that.

You sent this to me just now.

[music fades]

[lights thumping]

[emcee on screen] And now
we will begin the wedding of the bride,

Ms. Hong Hae-in,
and the groom, Mr. Baek Hyun-woo.

The groom, everyone.

[all clapping, cheering]

[emotional music playing]

[Hyun-woo laughs on screen]

Wow, ten years in the future. How are you?

Well, I hope you're not divorced. [laughs]

Uh, do you have any kids? One? Two?

Oh, well.
I don't really care if you don't.

All I need is Hae-in by my side.
That's it.

Try not to make her cry.

Just make her happy.

[emotional music continues]

I'm sure in ten years, you'll be too busy
to be wasting time watching a video of me.

Why don't you get back to the office?

I won't ask you how you've been doing.
I know you'll be doing great.

You'll still be attractive and healthy,
and at the height of your career.

And with... Baek Hyun-woo obviously.

[lights thumping]

[Hyun-woo sighs]

-Are you Mr. Baek Hyun-woo?
-Yes.

[music fades]

[woman] When Ms. Hong Hae-in
rented the whole venue,

she also reserved flowers for you.

You're saying... [hesitates]

...I rented this whole place?

-When?
-Just last month.

You rented it four years ago too.

Anyway, I'll leave you to it.

-[sentimental music playing]
-[Hyun-woo] Just... we're alone.

I heard this was
one of the best spots for a date.

Why isn't anyone here?

Hong Hae-in,

recently, I feel more and more like

the entire universe
is helping us be together.

[chuckles]

Oh, I know.

[Hyun-woo] I see.

It wasn't the universe
helping us be together.

It was all you.

I didn't realize it.

Well, I'm going now.
I don't know what this is.

[Hae-in] Baek Hyun-woo.

Now that I've lost my memory,

I want us to restart our lives
together with another wedding.

I want to wear a wedding dress
one more time.

There's no way
I wrote something like this.

I wanted to remarry
the man who stabbed me in the back,

and cheated on me with someone?

-There's no way.
-Yeah.

There's no way.

[paper rustles]

If I really were like that,

you wouldn't have done all this.

[music turns pensive]

I know you don't trust me,
and I'm not saying you have to.

But don't trust Yoon Eun-sung either.
Don't trust anyone.

And start being suspicious.

Yoon Eun-sung

isn't the one who's been protecting you.

He's the one who's keeping you
isolated from your family, from me.

[sighs]

[Eun-sung] Neither of us were
in the car when it happened, fortunately.

But I thought you were in the car,

so I tried to get in
through the window to save you.

[pensive music continues]

[music fades]

[knocking at door]

[Eun-sung exhales]

Is something wrong?

[chuckles softly]

This feels nice.

I'm usually the one worrying about you.

I'm here because I have a question.

[inhales] Just a moment.

[Eun-sung grunts]

I think I'm gonna have another drink.

-Would you like one?
-That's okay.

-[cabinet door opens]
-[sighs]

YOU HAVE UNOPENED FOOTAGE
WATCH NOW

[liquid pouring]

[ominous music playing]

[music intensifies]

[cabinet door closes]

[music slows]

[Eun-sung sighs]

Hae-in.

-How about we go to the States?
-What?

Our families have abandoned both of us.

So we should make our own way.

Mmm?

Together.

Let's go and live happily.

You sure I've been abandoned too?

What?

You think I'm a liar, is that it?

No, that's not it.

Let's talk again...
tomorrow, when you're not drunk.

You said you had a question for me.

It's been answered already.

I'm going.

[door closes]

[ice clinks]

[music swells, fades]

Hi, Secretary Na.

I don't have my old phone.

Uh...

Baek Hyun-woo, he...

Just send me his number.

Yeah. Text it to me.

[line disconnects]

-[sighs]
-[pills rattle]

[exhales]

[cell phone vibrates]

SECRETARY NA
HERE IS DIRECTOR BAEK'S NUMBER

[sighs]

DIRECTOR BAEK

[line ringing]

Mr. Baek? It's Hong Hae-in.

I'd like to talk with you.

Where are you?

I see. Talk to you soon.

[line disconnects]

[exhales]

RECIPIENT
HAE-IN HONG

[exhales]

[emotional music playing]

[Hae-in] Hyun-woo.

You must be reading this
while I'm in surgery.

If I don't wake up afterward,

I guess that means
this may also be my will.

I won't ask you to mourn me
for three years, like in the old days.

Instead, I just ask that
you remember me for four seasons.

Spring, summer, fall, winter,
and toast my name before you drink.

But after that,

you should forget about me
and try to live a happy life.

You should date someone cool,
get married and have a nice family.

I won't be jealous.

[sniffles]

[crying]

I'm jealous just thinking about it.

[sniffles]

As for my assets,
I want you to use them for something good.

There's a sense of urgency
when you know you might die.

Can I still make it to heaven
with a last-minute good deed?

I have to, if I hope
to meet you again in the future.

Even thinking about this
is making me really sad.

But...

if the surgery goes well and I live,

and I end up forgetting
everything about you,

if I treat you like a stranger,

if I act cold and distant,

and I won't let you in,
no matter how hard you try,

I know it'll be difficult,

but even if that happens,

please stay with me.

Don't get worn down.

Just continue loving me.

I have a very distinct type
when it comes to men,

so I know
I'll fall in love with you again.

You said you have a very distinct type
when it comes to men,

so I should trust you to figure it out.

Although I did think
you would recognize me sooner.

Please put up with me until then.

I won't be seeing any more of you.

We'll see each other again.

I'm not gonna wear out,

and I'll continue to be by your side.

And when I finally do recognize you...

[crying]

...you should marry me again.

[cries]

[charm clatters]

[music fades]

And, Hong Hae-in,

if you're reading this,
then your surgery was successful

and you probably don't
remember anything, right?

Then let me introduce you to him.

-[kicking copier]
-Excuse me.

[Hae-in] Baek Hyun-woo,
he's good at fixing things.

[copier tray opens, closes]

The tray opens if you just pull at it.

-No, ma'am.
-[Hae-in] He can be a bit of a buzzkill.

If it says that the paper is stuck,
take the paper out.

Why beat up the copier?

Well, it was stuck, so I was trying
the Heimlich maneuver to clear it.

Don't kick the machine.

[emotional music playing]

Call me next time.

[papers rustle]

Is your foot okay?

It's okay.

I suppose it hurts... a little.

[paper rustles]

Let's check it out.

[Hyun-woo clears throat]

[Hae-in] And a bit gullible.

Hyun-woo, did you know?

I hear there's a raccoon in our garden.

-Her name is Yeong-suk.
-Yeong-suk.

[Hae-in] When he's drunk,
he makes your heart flutter.

That's his signature move,
so you have to be aware of that.

I'm Hae-in's knight in drunken armor.

Did I make you feel uncomfortable?

[sobbing]

[emotional music continues]

[Hyun-woo] I thought you were dead.

[Hae-in] When he cries,
all you want to do is care for him.

So try not to make him cry.

When he rolls up his sleeves,
his forearm muscles make you lightheaded,

so make sure he keeps them rolled down.

[breath trembling]

If you still haven't figured him out yet,
just memorize what I've told you.

This man

is the reason
I didn't want to lose my memory.

[music fades]

And he's the reason that I want to live,
even without my memory.

["Love You With All My Heart"
by Crush playing]

Baek Hyun-woo is a name
I don't want to forget until the very end.

[crying]

I was happy in this life
because I was with him.

And I hope he'll be by your side
in this new life you're about to begin.

I'll be praying for it.

I'm sorry, Hyun-woo.

I'm so sorry.

[cell phone beeping]

HAE-IN

[inhales shakily]

[song continues]

Hae-in! Stay there! I'll go to you!

[panting]

[crying softly]

Baek Hyun-woo.

I'm sorry, Hyun-woo.

[exhales]

[song ends]

-[engine revs]
-[tires screech]

While Hong Hae-in and Yoon Eun-sung
were in Germany, I followed them around.

[engrossing music playing]

First thing is that Yoon Eun-sung
was dedicated to taking care of her.

[Eun-sung] Here.

-You feeling cold?
-No, I'm fine.

[Detective Hong] On the outside,
they look like the perfect couple.

-However, appearances are deceiving.
-[music fades]

[intriguing music playing]

It's all right. I got it.

[Eun-sung] Hae-in.

[music building]

It's all right. I'll do it.

It's all right. I can walk alone.

[Detective Hong] Women don't say,
"It's all right, I can do it on my own,"

to the men they actually like.

No, they want to get close to them.

But Hae-in was firm.
So it had me thinking,

"Somehow she knows
he isn't the man for her."

So Yoon Eun-sung is giving

all his undivided time and attention
to Hong Hae-in,

but getting absolutely nothing back.

As a result, his love is unrequited
and it will draw them apart.

-[Beom-jun sighs]
-[music fades]

You're saying that it will end soon.

Most likely,
things will fall apart quickly.

However, once he realizes that,

he is likely to become
unstable and aggressive.

So we have to act carefully.

[ominous music playing]

[music building]

[music turns sinister]

-[gear stick thuds]
-[engine revs]

[Detective Hong] Or he could do something
that jeopardizes everything for you.

QUEEN OF TEARS

["Promise" by Choi Yu-ree playing]

[Du-gwan] Is he alive?

Are they dead?

[Hyun-woo] Thanks, man.
You were always there for me.

-Whatever life throws at us...
-[g*n c*ck]

-[Hae-in crying] Hyun-woo!
-[Hyun-woo] ...I'm gonna protect this woman.
