01x14 - An Ordinary Evil

[bunniefuu]

LINK

So here you were.

Mom!

Dahyun! Oh, gosh!

Dahyun. Wake up, sweetie.

My mom k*lled the culprit to save me.

However…

There is more than one person.

There was more than one culprit.

And they're among us.

Disguised as normal people.

AN ORDINARY EVIL

It's just one matter.

It keeps lingering in front of me.
That thing.

Do you see her?

No, I don't see her.

But I think I know who she is.

Eun Gyeyoung, right?

You're seeing her, aren't you?

Was it you?

Were you…

the one who k*lled her?

Answer me. I'm asking if you did it.

She left.

She was definitely there
until just a while ago.

But she left.

I'm sorry, but I don't understand.
Who was there?

It's nothing.

Wait.

Didn't you come here
because you had something to tell me?

Why would I?

What about Eun Gyeyoung?

Mom, what happened to Eun Gyeyoung?

I'm sorry.

But I don't know.

What?

I had no idea that she was there as well.

I should've turned myself in.

If I turned myself in,
we could've found her too.

I'm sorry.

I'm truly sorry.

Hey, it's been a while.

Hello.

Is something wrong? Are you okay?

It's nothing. I'm okay.

Sorry, I shouldn't have said hi.

I should've just passed you by.

Do you really not need me to walk you home
with everything that's been going on?

It's okay.

Then let me just
walk with you until there.

What brings you to this neighborhood?

Do you live nearby?

No, I don't.

I just came by to check something.

Dahyun's memories are almost all back.

She'll remember you soon enough.

Or maybe…

she already does.

Someone I knew told me something.

So I came here to check

if they were telling the truth.

I see.

Your shoelaces have come undone.

You can go first.

They'll come undone again
if you tie them like that.

I can do it.

They won't come undone
if you tie them like this.

This way, you'll be able to run

if you need to.

Thank you.

I should get going now.

I think that person lied.

I did expect it though.

Go home safely then.

Goodbye.

By the way…

Have we…

ever met in the past?

As in when you were little?

Never mind.

Goodbye.

It's unlike you to call me first.

What's wrong?

What's going on?

Grandma.

Where's your mom?

She's still drinking.

That can't be.

How could Dahyun and Gyeyoung
have been together?

That's ridiculous.

It doesn't make any sense.

How's Dahyun?

We don't know yet.
The doctor needs to watch her for now.

Brace yourself for
what I'm about to tell you.

That man died.

What?

He's dead.

Did I… k*ll him?

What should I do?

Just don't do anything.

What do you mean?

Answer me.

I got rid of his body.

What?

So pretend like nothing happened.

No, that's not right.

That's not right, Jungho.

Just arrest me. I'll tell them everything.

He attacked us first.

Don't be ridiculous.

No one would deem your m*rder

as an act of self-defense.

-Still.
-You'll be put behind bars.

You'll be incarcerated,

and Dahyun will be all alone.

What's it to you?

This had nothing to do with you,
so why did you do that?

Of course, I'm involved in this.
I did it all for you.

I never asked you to!

No. I'm going to do it.
I'm going to turn myself in.

What about me then?

What'll happen to me?

Your decision will affect all of us.

It'll be the end for you, me, and Dahyun.

Then what about her?

Dr. Eun's daughter.

That case is irrelevant to this.

I found no trace of her anywhere.

So let's put an end to this.

Let's forget everything, okay?

I searched everywhere for Gyeyoung.

I searched his house, workplace,

and everywhere else he went.

His alibi even checked out.

But we were still wrong.

Had we reported it
and done a thorough search,

we could've found her.

Bokhee, come here.

Let me go.

We caught the culprit.

-What?
-The kidnapper was apprehended.

I told you that Gyeyoung's case
had nothing to do with Dahyun's.

So stop trying to turn yourself in, okay?

I…

will never forgive myself. And…

I'll never forgive you either.

You shouldn't have dissuaded me.

You should've let me be.

-It was all for you.
-Why would you do that?

Who do you think you are?

Never mind.

This isn't your fault.

It's all mine.

You see,

karma always bites back.

We're paying for what we did in the past.

Your mom

only found out later,
and she tormented herself.

She tried to turn herself in
several times but always couldn't.

Dahyun.

You must be struggling so much.

I'm sorry.

I'm truly sorry.

Don't be.

Why would you apologize?

And I don't resent Mom either.

But I don't know what to tell Gyehoon.

Even I'm in so much pain.

I can't imagine how he must be feeling.

That's why I feel terrible for him.

What in the world is going on?

CHEF EUN GYEHOON

Dahyun, are you okay?

Why are you
suddenly asking me if I'm okay?

I was worried about you,
so I called to check.

Why would you worry about me?

I'm…

always worried about you.

I'm always concerned about you.

Yes. I'm okay.

Don't lie.

You're not okay.

What's wrong?

Let's meet right now. Are you outside?

I'll come to you.

There's no need.

I'm really fine.

No.

You're…

crying right now.

What's going on, Dahyun?

Have you been waiting for me?

Here. Drink this.

Thanks.

You don't look too well.

You don't have a fever.

Do you want to eat something?

Do you crave anything?

It's okay. Don't bother.

These days, I often think that I was born

to cook for you.

I'll make some soup.

I don't know what's going on.

But if you force yourself to eat

no matter how much pain you're in,

you can endure it one day at a time.

I have something to tell you.

It's about my mom.

This was what she told me.

Her mom k*lled one of the culprits

and kept the case a secret

so she wouldn't get caught.

That means…

Had she reported it back then…

Had I not lost my memory…

Are you saying

we could've found Gyeyoung?

I'm sorry.

I really am.

I'm sorry, Gyehoon.

I don't know what to do.

Should I be mad at you?

Or should I wipe away your tears?

Hey.

Hey.

Hey, are you okay?

Thanks.

You don't look too well.

-Have you checked out some neighborhoods?
-What?

-I'm going to close down this restaurant.
-What?

Once I'm done taking care of some matters,

let's leave right away.

Why?

What do you mean?
You've been eager about moving.

But still.

I'm just sick and tired
of this neighborhood.

Everything here disgusts me.

In hindsight,

it was wise to leave this place.

Coming back was the worst decision ever.

Then what about Dahyun?

Speaking of which,
she's late to work today.

Did something happen to her?

What is she doing right now?

She's crying.

Hey, is that her?

What?

Hello.

Well done.

I don't deserve

to say anything.

Then don't.

I've already heard everything.

And I don't see the need
or have the desire to hear more.

You k*lled someone and covered it up?

It doesn't surprise me.

I've always thought
you'd be capable of doing that anyway.

-I just--
-If you're going to

justify your actions
on the pretext of motherly love,

I don't want to hear it.

I came here to apologize,
not to justify myself.

Apologize?

Why?

-Is the guilt eating away at you?
-That's not why.

Don't you even dare.

I have no desire

to alleviate your guilt.

If I shouted and expressed
my resentment toward you right now,

that would only make you feel better.

That's why I won't do that.

I want you to live forever…

with regret and guilt.

So…

please leave.

Okay.

What is it?

Ji Wontak.

Officer Ji.

LETTER OF RESIGNATION

Do you think this would cut it?

Of course not.

I won't run away.

Feel free

to sue or arrest me.

I'm sorry, sir.
Please cut him some slack this once.

What's it to you? Why would you apologize?

I failed to teach him properly
as his mentor.

-So--
-Hwang Minjo!

He should apologize to me first

if I were to even forgive him.

You think I have no pride?

I'm sorry, sir.

Darn it.

Wontak, wait!

Are you really going to be like this?

Sorry.

Let's ask him for his forgiveness.

I'll apologize too, okay?

That'll never happen.

Why are you doing this?

What in the world happened?

I'm sorry.

-Hello, ma'am.
-Did something happen again?

I had something important to ask.

What is it?

I'm sorry,
but can I talk with Dahyun for a minute?

First of all,
I'd like to say that I'm sorry.

I'm truly sorry, Dahyun.

I heard you and Gyeyoung
were together that day.

-That's right.
-Can you tell me what you remember?

I'd like to compare
your answers to the things I know.

Sure.

Do you remember where you girls

were locked up?

We were in the basement of a house.

And right now,

Ms. Yang lives there.

It was Ms. Yang's basement?

That's the house
from your nightmares, right?

Do you know that house?

Yes. You started having nightmares

not too long after the incident.

You kept dreaming of a red gate,
so I looked for the house,

just in case it existed.

But it didn't seem like
anyone was living there.

It was empty.

I see.

I'll go upstairs now.

Eat something.
You haven't had anything all day.

That's okay.

By the way,

what about you and Gyehoon?

I know you two are dating.

I don't have the right to choose.

Don't abandon me.

I don't mean to abandon you…

I can't abandon you.

And I can't hold onto you either,
even if you abandon me.

Do you remember the day

we almost broke up then reconciled?

I do.

I only realized this
after deciding to break up.

There isn't much that we've done.

I have so many things
that I want to do with you.

Then let's do them.

I want to sing at a karaoke room.

I rarely sing.

I want to play tag
by the ocean like they do

in movies and dramas.

I hate cheesy things.

And I also want to go
to an amusement park.

I'm terrified of those rides.

I want to wait in line
and eat delicious food.

But I'm a chef myself.

We haven't taken any selfies either.

I really hate taking photos.

But I'm going to do all of them.

Of course, I will.

What do you want to do?

I really liked arcade games growing up.

I want to go to an arcade together.

What else?

I also want to go to a cart bar

and have udon and soju.

Sounds good. Let's do them all.

We can do anything we want
as long as we don't break up.

You're right.

Will we really be able to do them all?

Yes.

As long as…

we don't break up.

Are you here, sir?

What bad timing.

He must be around here.

Hey.

What was that last melody?

I guess it's just

a memory.

Gosh, I repeatedly told you
that public urination is prohibited here.

Can you believe the guy
who urinates publicly did it?

A suspect of a cold case?

It's pretty difficult
for someone to turn over a new leaf.

Get branded once, and it's over for good.

In this neighborhood,

do you accuse people without any evidence?

Where were you and what were you doing
yesterday and the day before that?

Come on. Say it!

Why are you doing this?

Why can't you just tell me?

So that was why.

You scumbag.

You jerk.

Why didn't you tell me?

SEWOON POLICE STATION

Excuse me, sir. I'm here to testify.

This way, please.

The current time is 2:23 p.m.

The interrogation will commence now.

First, tell us about your relationship
with Mr. Lee Jingeun

and how you got to know him.

What brings you here at this hour?

I just wanted to see you.

Come in.

How are you?

Good.

Is everything really okay?

I just missed you and Dad.

You sound like a little kid.

Do I?

-Gyehoon.
-Yes?

You can call Dad if you want.

You don't need to worry about me.

I don't.

Your dad and I aren't on good terms
since we fought so much.

But it's okay.

Don't worry about me.
You can contact him as much as you want.

-Really?
-Of course.

So call him.

Okay. I'll call him later.

Didn't we search

all the vacant houses that day?

What are you talking about?
Be more specific.

I'm talking about that day 18 years ago
when Eun Gyeyoung went missing.

Didn't we search
all the empty houses in Jihwa-dong?

Why are you suddenly bringing that up?

Just tell me. I'm curious.

Yes, we did. We all split up
and searched all the areas.

Why are you asking?

Dongnam's house
was in Jihwa 3-dong, right?

Who was in charge of that area?

-Dongnam's house?
-Yes.

I can't remember that.

-Is that so?
-What is it?

Why do you ask?

I'd like to take the day off.
Please process my leave.

What?

I'm not your secretary.

Do you want to drink?
I need to or else I'll go insane.

Unbelievable. No, thanks.

Bye.

That little…

What's this about?

I'm the one to blame.

I'm the jerk.

I don't deserve to live.

What is it this time?

What's going on?

I deserve everything
that I'm going through.

I'm getting punished
for doing something I shouldn't have.

It's even raining.

What a great day to get drunk and die.

Jeez.

JURISDICTION MAP

CHIEF SEO

What is it?

It was you.

What?

You were the one
who searched Dongnam's area.

It was you. Don't you remember?

Are you positive?

Yes. I just checked.

By the way, what are you up to right now?

Are you really taking a leave?

I'm having a drink with Younghoon.

I'll process my leave then.

Who was that?

What's going on?

Let's go.

Jungho, are you okay?

Jeez.

-Excuse me.
-I…

I was the one who searched that house?

Stay there. I'll help you walk.

Jeez.

Let me help you.

Sober up, will you?

Jungho.

Let me help you.

Younghoon.

I heard.

You can't search
all the vacant houses by yourself.

Let me help, okay?

I'll search that house.

Okay. I'll move on to the next alley.

Shout if you find anything, okay?

-Don't worry.
-Okay. Go on.

Jungho, come here.

What?

What are you doing there? Come here.

Hop in.

Hurry up. The seat's getting drenched.

I'm okay. I can walk home.

I didn't drink
because I wanted to drive you home.

Go on.

Okay.

Younghoon.

You know I love you
and think the world of you, right?

I love you a lot too.

After all, I moved here because of you.

I was also really glad

when you moved here.

Jungho.

Yes?

You remembered, didn't you?

You shouldn't have remembered.

That's enough.

Please stop!

Stop torturing me.

Stop showing yourself in front of me!

Please…

Please help me.

I'm sorry.

But I have no energy
or desire to talk to anyone

at the moment.

Your sister…

She just won't disappear.

I beg of you.

Please…

Please get rid of her for me.

What brings you here at this hour?

I'm sorry for barging in this late,

but can I speak with Dahyun?

-What?
-What? Why her?

Dahyun, didn't you come
to our house last time?

Well…

-Yes.
-Why did you?

Why do you ask?

Was it because of my husband?

You know something, don't you?

Your husband?

Is it too difficult to talk about?
Then let me ask you instead.

Did you come that day

because of Eun Gyeyoung?
You did, didn't you?

What are you talking about?

I think

my husband…

k*lled her.

What do you mean?

My sister won't disappear?

What does that mean?

It means exactly that.

She just won't disappear.

So exactly what are you talking about?

My wife told me to come clean with you.

She said that would help me.

So I'm going to tell you everything.

Go on.

The day your sister disappeared

eighteen years ago,

people thought I wasn't in Jihwa-dong.

But I was.

I'm home.

I was always away from home due to work

and had returned home after a month.

But my wife wasn't home,
and I couldn't reach her either.

Where is she? It's getting late.

The house was a mess.

I was about to explode.

Then suddenly…

Hello?

You should've told me in advance
if the machines were faulty.

Hey!

Darn it.

Come on. Who is it?

-What?
-Please help me.

What?

Sir, please help me.

Back then,

I didn't know who she was.

I only found out later
that she was your sister.

And then?

What happened after that?

Why?

Why would you?

Younghoon.

Tell me why!

I'm sorry.

Deny it. Tell me it wasn't you.

Tell me you didn't do it.

You may have taken the girls.

But you didn't harm them, right?

They ran away.

Dahyun returned home, and Gyeyoung…

Gyeyoung…

What in the world happened that day?

Then who was that man that I buried?

That guy…

was just a scapegoat of mine.

I was going to
dispose of him later anyway.

But you did me a favor.

Also,

as for Gyeyoung…

You're right.

-She had escaped.
-Are you okay?

Darn it.

-Soonchul, hurry up.
-What is it?

-What's wrong?
-Hey.

They ran away! Darn it!

We can find them.

Gyeyoung.

Girls.

Where are you?

I will find you.

Where are you?

Where could you be, Gyeyoung?

Come on. Who is it?

Please help me.

-What?
-Sir, please help me.

What did you say?

A bad man is following me.

Dongnam and Gyeyoung were together?

Yes.

So I thought it was the end for me.

But there was a surprising twist.

What did you do with her?

I…

left her there.

I didn't help her

and just left her behind.

-What?
-He just left.

Despite her plea for help,
he just left her there.

A bad man?

Where is he?

Where is that bad man?

He was following me until just now.

Jeez, just my luck.

Please help me.

Please let me get in your car.

Please take me home.

Come on.

Darn it.

Please let me go.

Please let me go, sir.

Please, sir.

So?

Did you harm her?

Let me ask you

just one question.

You went into that house instead of me.

That day when you offered to help.

If it was me…

who had gone in there instead,

would she have lived?

Would I have saved her?

Why are you curious about that?

Just tell me!

She was alive.

k*ll me.

k*ll me, Younghoon.

How…

How could you do that?

That little girl was begging
for your help, but you…

How? How could you?

Why should I have helped?

Do you even know
how tired I was that night?

Why should I have helped her

when I was going through hell myself?

Why are you looking at me like that?

What did I do so wrong
for you to judge me?

All I did was mind my own business.

So why does your sister
t*rture me all the time?

And why are you looking at me
with those judgmental eyes?

It felt like the world

had abandoned me.

Darn it.

Is he sleeping already?

I need to tell him.

This happened before too.

Eun Gyehoon.

I felt this way before.

Gyehoon, are you okay?

Something happened to you, right?

What is it?

Say something!

Dahyun.

Yes, I'm listening.

I miss you.

Where are you?

I'll go there.

Okay?

Where are you?

Where are you?

LINK

You were right.

Time has a different meaning to me now.

You were right, Dahyun.

Let's break up.

I know now why we're linked.

I have to tell you.

But how did you know?

How did you remember me?

This feeling I have

is the same fear that I felt
the day Gyeyoung disappeared forever.

Dahyun!

Please help.

Please don't let me
lose anyone ever again.
