Cain and Abel (2009): Season 1, Episode 11 - Episode #1.11 - full transcript
EPISODE 11
Sir!
Sir!
Why aren't you
treating him?
You can't just watch
this man die.
Call an ambulance.
You should help him get on
the path to restore his memory.
If that path is closed,
his posttraumatic stress
disorder may worsen.
I don't even know him.
I have no memories of him.
But he frightened me.
So much that I could
hardly breathe.
EMERGENCY ROOM
ENTRANCE
Excuse me...
But would you
happen to know me?
My name is Lee Cho-in.
My name is Lee Cho-in.
Would you happen to know me?
Would you?
You got the wrong number.
I've lost my memory.
But this number
popped into my head.
I said you got
the wrong number.
Please think about it.
My name is Lee Cho-in...
Hi.
Let's have some lunch.
Seo-yeon, give me a minute.
Cho-in.
By any chance...
Aren't you Dr. Lee Cho-in?
You are, aren't you?
No.
You have the wrong person.
My name is Oh Kang-ho.
No, it's not.
He is Mr. Lee Cho-in.
Ma'am, this man is
Mr. Lee Cho-in.
Yes,
you are Dr. Lee Cho-in
from Bosung Medical Center.
The Dr. Lee who went missing
in Shanghai six months ago.
I was your tour guide
in Shanghai, China.
I'm Oh Young-ji.
That's Oh Young-ji,
Oh Kang-chul's sister.
But also the Oh Young-ji who
went on that Tolu mission with you.
I have seen you participating in
a brain surgery in China, too.
You can't remember these
things that happened in China.
I was a part of
those memories...
Kang-ho...
I mean, Dr. Lee Cho-in.
I'm so sorry I could
not tell you sooner.
So forget that you
were ever Oh Kang-ho.
And forget me as well.
Regain your memory
and go on your way.
I didn't understand
a thing you said.
You knew who I was from
the first moment you met me?
Yes...
I knew.
You knew I wasn't
Oh Kang-ho but Lee Cho-in.
Yet you played dumb?
Yes...
Why didn't you tell me?
Why didn't you tell me
that I was Lee Cho-in?
Because I was lonely.
After Kang-chul died,
I had no one else.
You were the only
one I could lean on.
You could have
told me after that.
You saw me tormented
daily by nightmares.
How could you?
Because I liked you.
I liked you,
Mr. Lee Cho-in.
I got selfish and I wanted you around.
I figured you'd leave if you
regained your memory.
So I couldn't tell you.
I know.
It was wrong.
And that it's too late.
So...
Go in search of your memory.
I did a terrible thing.
I'm so sorry.
-Choe Bok-geun.
-Yes, Dr. Lee.
What is wrong
with you people?
Sorry?
I told you to get rid
of Lee Cho-in,
so why is he still alive?
We're not in China anymore.
It's much easier
said than done.
I didn't call you to
listen to your excuses.
Lee Cho-in called me.
Do you know
what that means?
He's starting to
regain his memory.
We've heard about
this as well.
Are you around Lee Cho-in?
Where are you?
Front of the ER in the Bosung
Medical Center in Cheong-ju.
What?
At the Bosung affiliate in Cheong-ju?
Seems like he's met
one of his acquaintance.
Who?
This woman wears glasses
and is getting up there in years.
Kim Hyun-ju?
Don't worry.
I'll take care of him
as soon as he steps out.
No.
You must first find out who
he met and what he told them.
Get rid of him after I go there
and check for myself.
Do you understand?
Yes, we'll be waiting.
Seo-yeon.
Dr. Lee Sun-woo, you don't
even have time for lunch.
Something came up,
I'm sorry.
Let's go eat before
the sushi gets hard.
I have to head out,
I'm sorry.
Sun-woo, you can't even
eat a few pieces of sushi?
But once it's taken care of,
I'll be with you every day.
I promise.
You and your talk.
Anyway, make sure
to eat regularly.
Okay.
I should go.
The Director made you do
three or more surgeries a day.
No one knows why
he drove you so hard.
After he announced
the foundation plan
of an Emergency Medical Center,
you joined me in the ER.
Anyway, the last time
I saw you,
you left with a stash of meds
and a smile to go
save lives in China.
Cho-in, are you listening?
I'm sorry.
Yes, you seem to have amnesia.
So all of this must
seem incredible.
But now that you're here,
take time to regain
your memory.
Don't worry.
As you said, none of
this is believable.
No matter what
anyone tells me,
I can't believe a thing.
You'll believe it when
you see for yourself.
Let's go to Seoul
tomorrow and--
I was shot in the desert.
What?
Someone tried to
kill me in China.
As for who did it
or who knows about it...
I don't know a thing.
I want to find out for myself.
Cho-in.
I can't believe
anyone right now.
I'm sorry.
Cho-in.
If some people really
did try to murder you,
the fact that you're alive
must be shocking to them.
They even had an urn
with your name on it.
You'll have to be careful until
you regain your memory.
BOSUNG MEDICAL CENTER
DR. KIM HYUN-JU
Thank you, Doctor.
Anyway, the last time
I saw you,
you left with a stash of meds
and a smile to go
save lives in China.
Yes, you are Dr. Lee Cho-in
from Bosung Medical Center.
You have the wrong number.
Dr. Lee Sun-woo?
Well, it is you, Director Lee.
Long time no see, Dr. Kim.
You must be busy
at the Neuro Center,
so what brings you
to Cheong-ju?
This is an affiliate hospital.
I came to see how it's doing.
But what are you doing in the ER?
Are you looking
for someone?
Yes.
I came to see you,
Dr. Kim.
Me?
Why?
I didn't mean to create sparks
over the Neurosurgery Center.
So you came to apologize?
That needs no apology.
You were a nominee to run
the ER Center with Cho-in.
So I came as a courtesy.
Right.
You're so energetic, but there
aren't too many patients.
You must be bored.
Not having patients
is a good thing.
Can't say it's boring.
I can see where
the Neuro Center's headed.
Do you?
I'll let you get back.
Sure.
See you soon.
EMERGENCY ROOM
Where's Lee Cho-in now?
He's at a park.
Yes, we're tailing him.
-Lee Sun-woo?
-Yes.
Why does he want to meet
Lee Cho-in only to kill him?
Cho-in has met up
with some people.
Sun-woo wants to see how
much they might know.
He covers his behind.
I was your tour guide
in Shanghai, China.
I'm Oh Young-ji.
Because I liked you.
I liked you,
Mr. Lee Cho-in.
I got selfish and I wanted you around.
I figured you'd leave
if you regained your memory.
So I couldn't tell you.
I know that I was wrong.
And that it's too late.
So...
Go in search of your memory.
I did a terrible thing.
I'm so sorry.
Kang-chul...
My selfishness has
ruined everything.
But...
I did the right thing,
didn't I?
Mr. Choe, finish up the job.
It must be wrapped up
in Cheong-ju.
I understand.
Hello?
Seo-yeon, this is Sun-woo.
I'm hungry.
Lee Sun-woo.
What were you doing that
you had to starve yourself?
I was busy.
So much that you
couldn't even eat?
I know.
From now on,
make it a priority.
Okay.
This seaweed soup is so good.
You probably need
about six more bowls.
Yes, I'll take it all.
But don't have too much.
Eating too much isn't good
for those getting treatment.
FOOD GOOD
FOR BRAIN CELLS
You made a meal plan
just for me?
Thought I'd just feed
you anything?
Mister, you don't have
a very high opinion of me.
Kim Seo-yeon.
It could be that wanting
to eat your cooking...
...is what's kept me alive.
I'll feed you till you
can't eat anymore.
Go have a seat.
Just stay...
Like this for a while...
You must've had a long day.
I just wanted to be happy
with you like these kids.
I never wanted to make you
cry like this young girl.
Just as kids age
year by year,
I wanted us to make memories
together little by little.
I'm just an idiot who can't
even remember his name.
I wanted to regain my memory
and stick with you.
Even if you and I were to
grow fat like these people.
You saw me tormented
daily by nightmares.
How could you?
After the picnic...
I was going to tell
you everything.
I was...
...going to let you go.
You're asking if it's true?
Yes, it's true that
Cho-in is alive.
He came back to life,
Director Lee.
Aren't you happy?
So am I.
I couldn't believe it at first.
But it's really Cho-in.
It's hard for me
to tell you this.
But there's more to why this
has happened to Cho-in.
Sure he has amnesia.
But we had a funeral for
a man who is still alive.
There are questions about
your chordoma surgery, too.
Cho-in was supposed
to be there.
Sir?
Dr. Kim Hyun-ju.
How have you been, ma'am?
What are you doing here at this hour?
I have tomorrow off,
so I dropped by
to see everyone.
Oh?
Yes.
I see the Director's
condition hasn't changed.
I'm grateful Sun-woo's surgery
has him even in this state.
I can't ask for more.
Right.
I'm grateful, too.
I should get going.
I wonder what Kim Hyun-ju is
doing here, Director Lee.
No need to try so hard.
This is good.
Any reason why you
summoned me, sir?
Did I make a mistake
during the last surgery?
No.
Only if the other
anesthesiologists
could do as well as you.
Your kind words
are scaring me.
Just joking.
When I was at the affiliate
in Cheong-ju yesterday,
I ran into Dr. Kim
Hyun-ju as well.
I see.
She still seems to
be upset with me.
Well, the Emergency Medical
Center went down.
I don't want to leave such
a fine doctor at an affiliate.
What do you mean?
Once the Neurosurgery
Center gets settled,
the Emergency Medical
Center might happen, too.
Seriously?
Of course.
Oh...
Dr. Kim Hyun-ju is
doing fine otherwise?
Well, she's an old maid
who could use a guy.
But that's off the record.
Okay, I see.
See you at the briefing.
Sure. Off I go.
Kang-chul.
It's just the two of us
from now on.
So I'm going to keep striving.
Thank you.
Mr. Lee Cho-in.
We're not doing any
business today.
What are you doing?
Come with me.
Are you coming or not?
What?
You promised that
we'd go on a picnic.
Young-ji.
I'm still not very
happy with you.
I don't know if
I'm coming back.
So don't wait for me.
Okay, I know.
Mr. Lee, can we stop by home?
Can I do the guest stay
at the presidential mansion?
I know that the date
has passed, Supervisor.
But this person
means more to me
than a king or a president...
And it's my last chance
to spend a memorable day with him.
So could you give me a break?
Young-ji, a guest stay
is not possible.
But there is a way.
Really, sir?
Thank you.
Bye.
Young-ji.
You said you were
my guide in China.
What was I like?
At first,
I thought you were
a hustler and a player.
A hustler and a player?
Yes, you had a bag
full of drugs.
You asked me for a massage.
And you kicked me
out of the room.
You also changed
the itinerary on a whim.
I figured you for a selfish jerk.
But I saw that you observed
a brain surgery closely.
And you treated those kids
and took pictures in Tolu.
So I realized what
a kind person you are.
And then you even...
You even performed
an appendectomy on me.
An appendectomy...
You knew I had defected,
yet you were so attentive.
You made sure
I didn't have a scar.
And you didn't want me to feel lonely...
...after the surgery.
You left me a letter
and took pictures with me.
You got sick while
following me around.
Sorry I couldn't do the surgery
under better conditions.
After I met you...
I no longer feared...
...going to Korea.
And I decided to get on that ship,
and smuggle myself into Korea.
And call me when
you get to Korea.
Lee Cho-in.
This wasn't just
any old letter for me.
It was like a compass
inside my heart.
Visiting hours are over.
Everyone must vacate
the presidential mansion.
Hurry.
Mr. Lee.
Sit down.
So much food.
Mr. Lee, go wait outside.
I'll be fine.
I haven't been here
in so long.
How about some
Dutch coffee?
It takes so long though.
It might be ready by
tomorrow morning.
No, it's almost done.
TO SEO-YEON
An original Beatles LP.
I've wanted this.
May 17th, 2002.
Finally managed to get this
in Baltimore on my 34th visit.
February 6th, 2003.
At a record store on
25th street in Manhattan.
Found it on my third visit.
September 25th, 2002.
Talked a guy in Annapolis
into it after 20 phone calls.
ATTENTION: KIM SEO-YEON
Just give me a minute.
You silly man.
You should've sent me
those letters.
Why did you even write them?
You couldn't even
be with me,
yet you kept records of
my heart ultrasounds.
So we're together now.
You've always
been like this.
To get me original
Beatles LPs...
You went to the store
countless times.
Just like the Dutch coffee...
I drink it without knowing
how much work went into it...
But you prepared things
and waited for me...
Didn't you get tired?
I didn't even appreciate it.
Didn't you resent me?
No.
I enjoyed those times.
Just thinking of you...
One second.
Hello?
Miss Kim,
this is Oh Young-ji.
Oh, hello, Young-ji.
I'm sorry,
I've been busy.
I've wanted to see you.
Could you come
down to Cheong-ju?
To Cheong-ju?
There's something
I need to give you.
It has to do with
Mr. Lee Cho-in.
Can you come?
With Cho-in?
Okay.
It's not a problem,
I'll go there.
Thank you.
See you tomorrow.
Who was that?
The girl who was Cho-in's
tour guide in China.
You mean Oh Young-ji?
So you know her, too.
She has something of
Cho-in's in Cheong-ju.
So?
Will you go all the way
to Cheong-ju?
I have to pick it up
if it belonged to Cho-in.
You and I are the only ones
who can carry on his memory.
Would you come with me?
Sure.
We'll go.
We should go get it.
It belonged to Cho-in.
Come sit here.
What?
Where were you
going to sit?
Over there...
Come sit next to me.
Young-ji.
This potato dumpling soup
is strangely addictive.
Kind of like you.
Sometimes you're
all about money.
Sometimes you're all about sass.
And sometimes you're like a little sister.
And sometimes
you're like a mom.
So I miss you when
I don't see you.
I can't get enough of you.
Mr. Lee, you already know
I'm not worthy of that.
You're right.
Sometimes you're like
a little five year old brat.
Is there someone in
the banquet room?
At this hour?
Mr. Lee, we have to go.
The person who let me in
here might get fired.
I'm sorry.
It seems as if the two of us
are always on the run.
Young-ji.
I'm going to the hospital tomorrow.
I'm going home,
so I should be happy.
But I'm scared.
Countless people who I don't
remember will recognize me.
Even those who tried to kill me
might be there.
And I'll be smiling
at them like an idiot.
Don't worry, Mr. Lee.
Some people will
be on your side.
Even if I do
regain my memory...
The time I spent with you
in Cheong-ju...
...may end up being
the happiest time of my life.
I'll come back.
I'll come back, Young-ji.
Mr. Lee, you may not know this.
Once your memory comes back,
you'll forget little old me.
You might even forget
this very moment.
But I'll be just fine.
Even if you don't come back,
the memory of tonight is
enough to keep me waiting.
I'll keep my promise to you.
I'll come back, Young-ji.
Did you sleep well,
Mr. Lee Cho-in?
Now you're really leaving
in search of your memories.
I'll keep being
a tough little cookie.
So you regain your memory.
And I saw you crying
listening to this CD.
The song was written
by the woman you love.
Her name is
Miss Kim Seo-yeon.
And she cried
more than anyone
when she heard you died.
Go here by eleven o'clock
and you'll meet her.
I long ago forgot
the promise you made
about living as Oh Kang-ho.
So you forget it,
and recover your memories.
I hope that they will
bring you happiness.
Mr. Lee Cho-in,
stay healthy.
Boss, should we follow her?
We'll take care of Lee Cho-in first
and then get to the small fry.
Right?
Man-ho, it's time for
you to resolve things.
What do you mean?
We can't use
a gun in Korea.
-See that it gets resolved.
-Sorry?
Whoever I turn out to be...
I'll keep my promise
to you, Young-ji.
I'll be back, Young-ji.
It's already eleven,
we're late.
Sorry, I thought
I knew the way.
We're in Cheong-ju,
so we'll find it.
That might be it.
One second.
Hello?
-What happened?
-I'm sorry.
Lee Cho-in left
from the presidential mansion late,
and then got on the bus,
so we missed him.
Save your excuses.
Just take care of it.
Mr. Lee,
I can breathe now.
You'll meet Miss Kim
and regain your memory.
I can breathe.
The light's green.
Oh?
Sun-woo!
Help!
Sun-woo...
Help me.
Are you okay?
Her name is
Miss Kim Seo-yeon.
And she cried
more than anyone
when she heard you died.
Kim Seo-yeon...
Step on it.
Sir!
Sir!
Why aren't you
treating him?
You can't just watch
this man die.
Call an ambulance.
You should help him get on
the path to restore his memory.
If that path is closed,
his posttraumatic stress

I don't even know him.
I have no memories of him.

So much that I could

so why is he still alive?
We're not in China anymore.
It's much easier
said than done.
I didn't call you to

Lee Cho-in called me.
Do you know

Kang-chul...
My selfishness has
ruined everything.
But...
I did the right thing,
didn't I?
Mr. Choe, finish up the job.
It must be wrapped up
in Cheong-ju.
I understand.
Hello?
Seo-yeon, this is Sun-woo.
I'm hungry.
Lee Sun-woo.
What were you doing that
you had to starve yourself?
I was busy.
So much that you
couldn't even eat?
I know.
From now on,
make it a priority.
Okay.
This seaweed soup is so good.
You probably need
about six more bowls.
Yes, I'll take it all.
But don't have too much.
Eating too much isn't good
for those getting treatment.
FOOD GOOD
FOR BRAIN CELLS
You made a meal plan
just for me?
Thought I'd just feed
you anything?
Mister, you don't have
a very high opinion of me.
Kim Seo-yeon.
It could be that wanting
to eat your cooking...
...is what's kept me alive.
I'll feed you till you
can't eat anymore.
Go have a seat.
Just stay...
Like this for a while...
You must've had a long day.
I just wanted to be happy
with you like these kids.
I never wanted to make you
cry like this young girl.
Just as kids age
year by year,
I wanted us to make memories
together little by little.
I'm just an idiot who can't
even remember his name.
I wanted to regain my memory
and stick with you.
Even if you and I were to
grow fat like these people.
You saw me tormented
daily by nightmares.
How could you?
After the picnic...
I was going to tell
you everything.
I was...
...going to let you go.
You're asking if it's true?
Yes, it's true that
Cho-in is alive.
He came back to life,
Director Lee.
Aren't you happy?
So am I.
I couldn't believe it at first.
But it's really Cho-in.
It's hard for me
to tell you this.
But there's more to why this
has happened to Cho-in.
Sure he has amnesia.
But we had a funeral for
a man who is still alive.
There are questions about
your chordoma surgery, too.
Cho-in was supposed
to be there.
Sir?
Dr. Kim Hyun-ju.
How have you been, ma'am?
What are you doing here at this hour?
I have tomorrow off,
so I dropped by
to see everyone.
Oh?
Yes.
I see the Director's
condition hasn't changed.
I'm grateful Sun-woo's surgery
has him even in this state.
I can't ask for more.
Right.
I'm grateful, too.
I should get going.
I wonder what Kim Hyun-ju is
doing here, Director Lee.
No need to try so hard.
This is good.
Any reason why you
summoned me, sir?
Did I make a mistake
during the last surgery?
No.
Only if the other
anesthesiologists
could do as well as you.
Your kind words
are scaring me.
Just joking.
When I was at the affiliate
in Cheong-ju yesterday,
I ran into Dr. Kim
Hyun-ju as well.
I see.
She still seems to
be upset with me.
Well, the Emergency Medical
Center went down.
I don't want to leave such
a fine doctor at an affiliate.
What do you mean?
Once the Neurosurgery
Center gets settled,
the Emergency Medical
Center might happen, too.
Seriously?
Of course.
Oh...
Dr. Kim Hyun-ju is
doing fine otherwise?
Well, she's an old maid
who could use a guy.
But that's off the record.
Okay, I see.
See you at the briefing.
Sure. Off I go.
Kang-chul.
It's just the two of us
from now on.
So I'm going to keep striving.
Thank you.
Mr. Lee Cho-in.
We're not doing any
business today.
What are you doing?
Come with me.
Are you coming or not?
What?
You promised that
we'd go on a picnic.
Young-ji.
I'm still not very
happy with you.
I don't know if
I'm coming back.
So don't wait for me.
Okay, I know.
Mr. Lee, can we stop by home?
Can I do the guest stay
at the presidential mansion?
I know that the date
has passed, Supervisor.
But this person
means more to me
than a king or a president...
And it's my last chance
to spend a memorable day with him.
So could you give me a break?
Young-ji, a guest stay
is not possible.
But there is a way.
Really, sir?
Thank you.
Bye.
Young-ji.
You said you were
my guide in China.
What was I like?
At first,
I thought you were
a hustler and a player.
A hustler and a player?
Yes, you had a bag
full of drugs.
You asked me for a massage.
And you kicked me
out of the room.
You also changed
the itinerary on a whim.
I figured you for a selfish jerk.
But I saw that you observed
a brain surgery closely.
And you treated those kids
and took pictures in Tolu.
So I realized what
a kind person you are.
And then you even...
You even performed
an appendectomy on me.
An appendectomy...
You knew I had defected,
yet you were so attentive.
You made sure
I didn't have a scar.
And you didn't want me to feel lonely...
...after the surgery.
You left me a letter
and took pictures with me.
You got sick while
following me around.
Sorry I couldn't do the surgery
under better conditions.
After I met you...
I no longer feared...
...going to Korea.
And I decided to get on that ship,
and smuggle myself into Korea.
And call me when
you get to Korea.
Lee Cho-in.
This wasn't just
any old letter for me.
It was like a compass
inside my heart.
Visiting hours are over.
Everyone must vacate
the presidential mansion.
Hurry.
Mr. Lee.
Sit down.
So much food.
Mr. Lee, go wait outside.
I'll be fine.
I haven't been here
in so long.
How about some
Dutch coffee?
It takes so long though.
It might be ready by
tomorrow morning.
No, it's almost done.
TO SEO-YEON
An original Beatles LP.
I've wanted this.
May 17th, 2002.
Finally managed to get this
in Baltimore on my 34th visit.
February 6th, 2003.
At a record store on
25th street in Manhattan.
Found it on my third visit.
September 25th, 2002.
Talked a guy in Annapolis
into it after 20 phone calls.
ATTENTION: KIM SEO-YEON
Just give me a minute.
You silly man.
You should've sent me
those letters.
Why did you even write them?
You couldn't even
be with me,
yet you kept records of
my heart ultrasounds.
So we're together now.
You've always
been like this.
To get me original
Beatles LPs...
You went to the store
countless times.
Just like the Dutch coffee...
I drink it without knowing
how much work went into it...
But you prepared things
and waited for me...
Didn't you get tired?
I didn't even appreciate it.
Didn't you resent me?
No.
I enjoyed those times.
Just thinking of you...
One second.
Hello?
Miss Kim,
this is Oh Young-ji.
Oh, hello, Young-ji.
I'm sorry,
I've been busy.
I've wanted to see you.
Could you come
down to Cheong-ju?
To Cheong-ju?
There's something
I need to give you.
It has to do with
Mr. Lee Cho-in.
Can you come?
With Cho-in?
Okay.
It's not a problem,
I'll go there.
Thank you.
See you tomorrow.
Who was that?
The girl who was Cho-in's
tour guide in China.
You mean Oh Young-ji?
So you know her, too.
She has something of
Cho-in's in Cheong-ju.
So?
Will you go all the way
to Cheong-ju?
I have to pick it up
if it belonged to Cho-in.
You and I are the only ones
who can carry on his memory.
Would you come with me?
Sure.
We'll go.
We should go get it.
It belonged to Cho-in.
Come sit here.
What?
Where were you
going to sit?
Over there...
Come sit next to me.
Young-ji.
This potato dumpling soup
is strangely addictive.
Kind of like you.
Sometimes you're
all about money.
Sometimes you're all about sass.
And sometimes you're like a little sister.
And sometimes
you're like a mom.
So I miss you when
I don't see you.
I can't get enough of you.
Mr. Lee, you already know
I'm not worthy of that.
You're right.
Sometimes you're like
a little five year old brat.
Is there someone in
the banquet room?
At this hour?
Mr. Lee, we have to go.
The person who let me in
here might get fired.
I'm sorry.
It seems as if the two of us
are always on the run.
Young-ji.
I'm going to the hospital tomorrow.
I'm going home,
so I should be happy.
But I'm scared.
Countless people who I don't
remember will recognize me.
Even those who tried to kill me
might be there.
And I'll be smiling
at them like an idiot.
Don't worry, Mr. Lee.
Some people will
be on your side.
Even if I do
regain my memory...
The time I spent with you
in Cheong-ju...
...may end up being
the happiest time of my life.
I'll come back.
I'll come back, Young-ji.
Mr. Lee, you may not know this.
Once your memory comes back,
you'll forget little old me.
You might even forget
this very moment.
But I'll be just fine.
Even if you don't come back,
the memory of tonight is
enough to keep me waiting.
I'll keep my promise to you.
I'll come back, Young-ji.
Did you sleep well,
Mr. Lee Cho-in?
Now you're really leaving
in search of your memories.
I'll keep being
a tough little cookie.
So you regain your memory.
And I saw you crying
listening to this CD.
The song was written
by the woman you love.
Her name is
Miss Kim Seo-yeon.
And she cried
more than anyone
when she heard you died.
Go here by eleven o'clock
and you'll meet her.
I long ago forgot
the promise you made
about living as Oh Kang-ho.
So you forget it,
and recover your memories.
I hope that they will
bring you happiness.
Mr. Lee Cho-in,
stay healthy.
Boss, should we follow her?
We'll take care of Lee Cho-in first
and then get to the small fry.
Right?
Man-ho, it's time for
you to resolve things.
What do you mean?
We can't use
a gun in Korea.
-See that it gets resolved.
-Sorry?
Whoever I turn out to be...
I'll keep my promise
to you, Young-ji.
I'll be back, Young-ji.
It's already eleven,
we're late.
Sorry, I thought
I knew the way.
We're in Cheong-ju,
so we'll find it.
That might be it.
One second.
Hello?
-What happened?
-I'm sorry.
Lee Cho-in left
from the presidential mansion late,
and then got on the bus,
so we missed him.
Save your excuses.
Just take care of it.
Mr. Lee,
I can breathe now.
You'll meet Miss Kim
and regain your memory.
I can breathe.
The light's green.
Oh?
Sun-woo!
Help!
Sun-woo...
Help me.
Are you okay?
Her name is
Miss Kim Seo-yeon.
And she cried
more than anyone
when she heard you died.
Kim Seo-yeon...
Step on it.
