Melting Me Softly (2019): Season 1, Episode 15 - Hot Guy and Cold Girl - full transcript
(All characters, organizations,
places, cases, and incidents...)
(in this drama are fictitious.)
I heard Dong Chan is meeting
Professor Hwang today.
Is he trying to get the shot first?
Who's that? I thought I
wasn't getting any backup.
- Wait here for a second.
- Okay.
The receiver cannot be reached.
You will be directed...
Why isn't he picking up?
(Police)
He's going to get another
shot on the sixth day.
We'll know if his body temperature
will return to normal...
24 hours after he receives that shot.
Hey, are you filming everything?
- Yes, don't worry.
- Okay.
Please roll down the window.
Hello?
What? So what happened?
How's Mi Ran? Is she okay?
That's a relief.
Okay, I understand. I'll call you back.
(Bureau Chief, Na Ha Young)
I want more people at
Cheongun Police Station.
There's going to be breaking news.
Prepare a clear photo of Terry Kim.
We'll see what kind of things he
could've disguised himself as.
I'll contact the CGI Team.
Do you feel better now?
Yes, how is Detective Baek?
Fortunately, he wasn't deeply stabbed.
So he got moved to the general ward.
I'm relieved to hear that.
When did a freshman learn how to drive?
During vacation.
But I haven't practiced much,
so I can't guarantee anything.
Hey, forget it. I'll drive.
You're not supposed to do
anything that strains the heart.
I'll drive slowly at 60km per hour.
Okay.
(Inferior)
Hello?
I noticed you called.
Did something happen?
No.
What's wrong with your voice?
Do you feel sick?
No.
I'm glad to hear that everything's okay.
I'll see you later. Bye.
(Episode 15: Hot Guy and Cold Girl)
Terry Kim's real name is Kim Hyeon Do.
He stole the identity of Jeong Ki
Seok, a homeless man,
who disappeared and has an ID
number that starts with 801204.
He's been using a fake identity.
Make sure you reveal his face
and personal information.
This will be our main news topic.
- Okay.
- Okay.
Let's go.
I must catch him.
(Information Division)
- Hello?
- Mi Ran?
Hey, Professor Hwang.
I'm sorry I couldn't keep our promise.
Director Ma ended up
taking the shot before you.
This morning.
Mr. Ma got it first?
Yes, I'm sorry I couldn't tell you.
He asked me not to tell you.
Is he doing okay right now?
Hello?
Dong Chan.
What's with your voice?
That guy got me,
and I'm in the hospital.
What? Are you seriously injured?
I got better now.
He...
somehow got a police car...
and pretended like he's a police officer.
You need to catch him soon.
He was...
trying to attack Ms. Ko.
- What?
- Hear me out to the end.
But he was countered...
by Ms. Ko and failed.
What about Mi Ran? Is she okay?
Have some for now.
Then we can start fighting.
You need to take some time off from work...
until he gets caught.
You're the one who needs some rest, not me.
No, I'm fine.
You don't look all right.
No, I...
I'm fine.
I'm sorry,
but I don't think I can eat anything yet.
Why didn't you tell me that
you'll get the injection?
You always do everything first.
I thought you might do it
before me if I told you.
I set up an appointment and even
was going to take a day off...
to get the injection.
Of course, you did.
But you shouldn't take a day off
but take a leave for a while...
until he's caught.
No, I can't do that.
I'm going to catch him.
What?
What is this?
The culprit is after us.
I'm going to spray this
whenever he shows up.
Hey, forget it. Don't get involved in this.
My gosh. Just let the police handle this.
Even the police were attacked.
You can focus on getting better.
I'll catch the culprit.
I already attacked him
first with a stun gun,
so he probably doesn't think we're a joke.
You need to stop watching Hollywood movies.
Do you think you're Wonder Woman?
Just stay home, will you?
Don't come to the office either.
Who are you trying to catch?
Are you out of your mind?
I'm bad at dating,
but I'm good at everything else.
I've done so many episodes on
"Infinite Experiment Paradise".
Every single fight is about taking the lead.
The more I get scared,
the more he'll think I'm a joke.
Hey, don't be ridiculous. You aren't...
This is a professional killer.
Get the right idea about your situation.
Let's go home. I'll give you a ride.
You can't give me a ride in that condition.
I'll go home alone.
Don't be ridiculous.
If Mr. Ma's test results look promising,
then will you inject the shots into
the other two subjects as well?
Chairman Lee will do it...
after he gets a little better.
We need to do this as soon
as possible for Ms. Ko.
She'll begin to build tolerance
against fever reducer.
I want to see Mr. Ma and Ms. Ko
return to their healthy condition.
We'll see that soon.
Were you here all along?
I'd love to be ill in your place.
In just a week,
we can do everything
that everyone else does.
We can go ride Disco Pang Pang
that you wanted to go on badly.
And?
And...
we can have a cup of hot Americano.
- And?
- And...
But it won't be in a week.
It'll be in two weeks.
Professor Hwang told me
to get injected in a week.
That makes it two weeks.
Yes.
You're right.
Even if you feel like throwing
up, have some food.
Professor Hwang said you
need to eat something.
The first day after the injection.
It has been 12 hours,
but there is no change
in my body temperature.
My heart rate is a bit irregular.
And I have a serious headache.
I can still feel a bit
of pressure on my heart.
I don't feel nauseated anymore,
but I still need iced water.
I am still a cryonic human.
Did you sleep well?
Yes, did you?
Yes.
Should I return to the
rooftop house tomorrow?
(Should I return to the
rooftop house tomorrow?)
Is that necessary?
(Is that necessary?)
I didn't fix my toilet yet.
What? I used your toilet yesterday.
(I used your toilet yesterday.)
It was fixed.
(It was fixed.)
The second day after the injection.
My body temperature is 32.8℃.
The third day after the injection.
The pain in my head and chest is gone,
but I am still a bit dizzy.
And my body takes turns
feeling hot and cold.
But it feels good.
It feels like the injection is working.
- The change in...
- Uncle Dong Chan, come and eat.
Okay. Give me a moment.
Okay.
Why aren't you going to work lately?
Did something happen?
No, nothing.
Nothing happened.
Hey, Dong Sik.
Will you keep working at the restaurant?
I should. What can I do?
There's not much I can do.
Why don't you open up a singing class...
for men?
I'm sure there are men
who'd love to learn to sing.
I woke up after 20 years,
but all I see are singing
classes for housewives.
- Dong Chan.
- Yes?
Things like that will definitely fail.
Guys only sing when they're drunk.
Okay, fine.
Hey, you should think about
getting back with Young Tak.
Don't make it that simple just
because this isn't your life.
I'm only saying because you
look rather calm these days.
You need him.
And he's the best partner for you.
Young Tak isn't an idiot.
He won't take her back.
He might faint and get
hospitalized if he hears that.
Shut it. I don't want him either.
I have high standards.
Young Tak is at the hospital.
He got hurt in an accident.
So visit him.
Why did he get hurt?
Gosh, I really don't like him.
Hey, stop dating weird guys...
and try to work it out with Young Tak.
When will you get married?
Get married? Nonsense.
I guess I should get married one day.
You should. You're 52.
You'll become 60 in no time.
60?
How about doing a parody on a
movie that was popular in 1999?
How about a concert with the
singers who were popular then?
Another channel did
something similar already.
- Yes...
- That's right.
"Infinite..."
We don't have to limit
ourselves to the year 1999.
These are images I found.
(90's Items)
It's a collection of the
trends from the 1990s.
(90's Items)
Isn't it nice?
We'll take popular music
and dramas from that time...
and dramatize it to the current times.
Really hot idols...
will have their hair in pigtails
and wear small sunglasses.
Let's dance
No, no, sir. Someone handsome has to do it.
I like this. You know that movie, don't you?
"Love Letter".
At the end, she goes...
Instead of that, we can say, "Let's dance!"
I wasn't going to get involved,
but it's too pathetic to watch.
If we make a show like
that, would you watch it?
Probably not.
Right? You need to take
a different approach.
It'd be better to take a 2019
item and apply it to 1999.
For example, take "Love Letter"...
and rewrite it to make a 2019 version.
Instead of a book in a library,
she can look at an app.
Instead of the bicycle,
the protagonist can ride
an electronic scooter.
Isn't this better?
Let's continue what we were discussing.
There's Lee Jung Hyun.
I had my doubts but you left me
Uhm Jung Hwa.
I don't know, I can't tell
I said stop! Don't do things like that.
What did I tell you?
You have to come up with shows
from the viewer's perspective.
Don't do things you want to do.
Just go to karaoke.
Then shoot it yourself.
That's what I want to do! I do.
Is the air conditioner on in here?
Yes. I turned it on for you.
I'm cold. Turn it off.
- Hurry up and turn on the camera.
- Okay.
Is it ready?
The current temperature is 33.3℃.
I've gone past the critical point.
There are no problems with my heart.
My hands and feet aren't numb either.
What's important...
is that I finally...
started to feel cold too.
What are you looking at?
Why did you decide to
participate in this experiment?
Don't you regret it?
It's been so difficult for you.
Would you do it again if
we could turn back time?
I should.
- Why?
- Because no one else will do it.
I should do things no
one else wants to do...
for a better tomorrow.
That's my calling as a director.
Can I treat you like my big brother?
Your big brother? Forget it.
I'm older than your dad.
Then should I call you an elder?
Yes. This elderly is going
to the President's Office.
Clean up the equipment.
Change my name in your contacts.
A correspondent in Washington?
I told you I'm resigning.
Yes. I know how you feel.
But if you leave like this,
that makes you more irresponsible.
Of course becoming a
correspondent in Washington...
isn't a job for a bureau chief.
That's why you should
consider this as a chance...
for you to be responsible.
Think of it as a demotion.
Stay there for two years.
It'll make you feel better too.
Did you say you'll return after two years?
I hope we can see each other...
as friends when I return.
Am I being too shameless?
We'll go for drinks then. As friends.
Take care of yourself and stay healthy.
I hope you'll stay happy.
Thank you.
I'm going to become even happier.
I really hope so.
What? Why...
How did you know I was here?
Dong Chan told me.
I came because I heard you're ill.
Are you okay?
What are you doing?
Dong Chan promised to give me 500 dollars...
if I send him a picture to
prove I came to see you.
- What?
- Stay still.
Smile.
I'm really sick.
Smile anyway. We're taking a picture.
Bunny ears.
What?
You want me to air his face on
our channel as a commercial?
- Yes.
- Gosh.
Do you know how much that would cost?
Also, it would never pass deliberation.
We have to catch him no matter what.
He's a murderer who killed two people.
But we still can't do that.
It's not possible.
Are you still on Lee Hyeong Du's side?
What did you say?
Lee Hyeong Du is targeting
us even from prison.
Mi Ran almost got in trouble.
Don't you know what I mean?
Hong Suk, don't you have a conscience?
You should try to be responsible...
and fix what you did wrong!
Dong Chan.
How could you...
- This is...
- Wait, wait.
My... My temperature isn't rising.
This...
My heart rate went up,
but my temperature is the same.
What's with him?
Mi Ran.
My temperature won't rise even
when I get agitated or mad.
Look.
- Really?
- Yes.
I'll make a quick trip
to see Professor Hwang.
Don't go home and wait here.
Don't go around by yourself.
Okay.
Let's shoot a teaser video
and promote it first.
The show's not until a month later.
Do you want to shoot a teaser now?
It's a strategy to secure air time.
We'll air the teaser of the new show...
for a month on TBO.
We'll shoot short commentaries
outdoors like introductions.
It'll get people's hopes up.
We'll only show the backside
of the stars we're casting...
to get people curious.
Mi Ran, can you get a list of the cast?
- Yes, sir.
- Okay.
It'd be best if the cast
works well together.
Did you come back?
What did Professor Hwang say?
Let's go. We can talk on our way home.
Okay.
Are you cold?
Yes, isn't it cool?
Should I just get the shot tomorrow?
No, just wait a few more days.
It's not over until it's over.
Professor Hwang told me that
I need to get one last shot...
and see how I react to that to be sure.
Are you really cold?
- Yes.
- This is so cool.
I'm starting to get cold
a lot easier than before.
I feel like my body is slowly
starting to react to the shot.
And this might be the biggest
change I've experienced...
ever since I got the shot.
My current body temperature is 34.7°C.
My goodness.
Hey, Mi Ran's smart with many things.
But she's not so clever when
it comes to Director Ma.
She doesn't know how to
take control of her man.
It's because she likes him.
I think she really likes him.
Do you think so?
Just a second.
Hey, honey.
I was just having a
conversation with my friend...
about life, society, and culture.
I love you too.
Don't work too much but earn a lot of money.
Okay?
I'll call you later.
My gosh.
You only just met him, and you're
already telling him you love him?
Back in the days,
guys used to approach me
whenever they got the chance.
But dating at our age
isn't an easy thing to do.
I should make the best of it.
Mom, I'm home.
- Hey, Aunt.
- Did you eat?
I ate with my coworkers and Mi Ran.
She's your mom, I'm your aunt,
and Mi Ran's your friend?
This is really complicated. It really is.
Are you having fun at work?
Yes.
Being a director seems really cool.
I'm going to be a great director
just like Director Ma Dong Chan.
Ma Dong Chan? Mi Ran's boyfriend?
You guys have such a peculiar relationship.
What do you think about getting
frozen in a cryonic capsule?
What do you mean?
I mean, you're going through
a hard time right now.
Haven't you ever wanted...
to escape reality...
and start a new life in a better future?
No.
I may have gotten a divorce,
but I'm happy...
thanks to my son.
Watching you grow up like this...
is the source of my happiness.
What's the use of waking up in 20 years?
I wouldn't be able to see you grow up.
And not much will be
different after 20 years...
or any other time in the future.
It's like postponing your homework.
Life is all about suffering anyway.
What about you? Would you enter the capsule?
No, I also feel happy...
being able to live in the
same time period as you.
I've raised an incredible son.
Nice.
I went jogging today,
and I'm completely fine.
I'm serious.
By the way,
what should we do today? It's our day off.
- Do you feel okay?
- It's really cool here.
- I see.
- Isn't it cold there?
No, not at all.
Will you close the door? It's freezing.
- It's cold.
- What are you doing?
- I'm sorry.
- It's freezing.
- I'm sorry.
- You've been keeping it open.
- What's with you?
- Seriously.
- I'm sorry.
- My goodness.
My gosh.
Are you that cold? You could stay outside.
No, I'm not cold.
And...
And you can't be alone.
Make sure you take me
with you wherever you go.
Even when you go outside to buy sikhye.
You're not fully cured yet.
What if you catch a cold?
That shouldn't happen.
See? You should wait outside.
No, I can't do that either.
I should warm myself up.
I'll rub my hands.
Gosh, I can't do this.
You know what? Let's just go somewhere else.
Where?
Just follow me.
Is there anything else you want to do?
There are loads of stuff.
Like what?
I want to take you for a ride on a bicycle.
And I want to go to a proper sauna.
I also want to go see the stars with you.
Just wait a bit more.
Let's do everything we
want to do together, okay?
Okay.
Hey, stop it.
Your body temperature will rise.
I got myself a hot cup of coffee.
My gosh, that's nice and warm.
That looks so nice.
You traitor.
This is good too.
You'll soon be able to drink
something warm as well.
Director Ma, let's go home now.
You want to go home already?
We don't have much time until
we shoot "Go Go 99" again,
so I have a lot of work to do.
I need to go to the office.
So you should go home and spend time alone.
You want me to go home and spend time alone?
My gosh, you're really cold-hearted.
Of course. I'm a cryonic human.
I should get some drinks for my teammates.
- Thank you.
- Here you go.
- Bye.
- Thank you.
Let's go.
I'll come pick you up once you're done.
No, it's okay. The police promised to come.
You don't need to worry.
You should go home before midnight.
I'm not Cinderella.
You should go now.
Let's wait like seniors...
who are waiting for their KSATs.
- Okay.
- Okay.
- I'll be off now.
- Okay.
The fifth day.
My body temperature won't go up anymore.
There's no change in my temperature.
Will it be all right?
You just got injected with the final shot.
Let's wait and see.
This is the final step in returning
to your normal temperature.
Things may get pretty tough today.
We cannot use more drugs on you today.
You must live through this all by yourself.
Don't worry.
Hello?
I'm in regret right now.
About what?
I should have followed you
no matter what you said.
I should've been there with you.
I know you miss me, but hold yourself back.
And don't be worried either.
Go home early.
Tell me if you're in pain.
I'll run over right away.
Okay. I'm completely fine.
- Are you sure?
- Yes.
I'm a bit sleepy right now.
I have to go to sleep.
Okay.
Let me know if it gets too tough. Okay?
Okay.
Here.
Thank you.

("A Cold Woman's Warm Heart", by Ko Mi Ran)
Dong Chan has been weird lately.
He's always in his room
muttering to himself.
And he sleeps so much, doesn't he?
He keeps on sleeping like
he's a 100-day-old baby.
In movies that deal with cryonic humans,
they sometimes age overnight, right?
That's not his case, is it?
That can't happen.
It can't. That's just too unfair.
(Inferior)
Hello?
Mi Ran, I...
Right now, I...
I'm...
at 36.5℃ right now.
Really?
You're really at 36.5℃ right now?
This is great.
I'm so glad.
Mi Ran.
I'm sorry and thank you.
At first,
it seemed hopeless, unfair, and devastating.
But come to think about it now,
there were good things too.
Like what?
You.
Thanks to this, we got to share the time...
that only we know about.
And...
we fell in love too.
Wait just a little more.
We'll be able to live...
just like everyone else.
I have the test result.
Everything looks normal.
(Test Result)
We did it.
Congratulations.
You finally became a normal human.
Thank you. Then can Mi Ran be injected soon?
If she's up for it,
I'll prepare it right away.
Yes, I'll talk to Mi Ran.
Let me tell my family about it.
You were born again today.
Have a bite.
Okay.
It's really good, Mom.
It's not hot anymore.
Thank you, my son.
Thank you, Mom, for waiting.
Congratulations, Dong Chan.
You never even had a drop of alcohol.
It must've been tough.
You aren't a frozen human anymore.
You can't make a YouTube channel anymore.
Dong Chan, we should go to the sauna.
We can rub each other's backs
and sweat off our fatigue.
- Let's do that, okay?
- Okay, sauna sounds great.
After the sauna, let's grab a drink.
Let's have all the drinks that
you couldn't have to this day,
and let's get wasted.
Aunt Dong Ju, stop trying to
use him as an excuse to drink.
I'll tell Grandma all about it.
Don't be so naughty.
Quiet down, everyone.
Be quiet so Dong Chan can eat.
- Eat up, now. Eat up.
- Okay.
Eat up.
You should get the shot tomorrow.
We're shooting the teaser tomorrow,
so I'll get it the day after.
Work isn't important right now.
Did you forget who got me...
to become passionate about being a director?
Are you serious? Then...
I'll play your bodyguard
until the suspect is caught.
Tell me where the shoot is tomorrow.
Are you coming to the shoot?
Yes. I'm going to go.
It's so frustrating to
watch how your team works.
By the way, why are you wearing this watch?
You don't need it.
When you become 36.5℃, we'll get...
matching watches.
Okay.
Gosh.
Can you check the times on
the video files in here?
Yes.
Are you going somewhere?
Yes. I have to go somewhere.
Are you saying...
that you have...
normal body temperature now?
Yes.
My goodness.
Your hand is really warm.
It's warm.
If Mi Ran gets her shot,
she'll become normal just like me...
in one week.
Yes!
Does that mean she's not
a cryonic person anymore?
That's right.
You went through so much
trouble, haven't you?
I was shameless.
I never apologized to you properly.
Mi Ran...
will be able to live like
other ordinary people.
Please just wait a week.
Thank you so much.
Please forget about...
how much we hated...
and resented you.
Don't worry about it,
Mother and Father.
I'm...
the world's first cryonic man, Ma Dong Chan.
Hello?
I have a package I want to send.
The receiver's name is Ma Dong Chan.
Yes. I'll give you the address.
Please come this way.
Put the props behind the camera.
- Okay, okay.
- Take them away.
(Let's go to 1999!)
This is getting in the shot, so go higher...
Can you check this one?
- Are you feeling less nervous?
- Yes.
When you use the stage,
make sure you spread out.
Please step back a little bit.
They have so much time.
Why are they shooting the teaser already?
I guarantee you...
the teaser will be completely
different from the actual show.
- Mi Ran! Mi Ran!
- Blood! Blood!
What happened?
- Hey.
- Are you okay?
Ko Mi Ran!
Hey! Wake up.
Mi Ran.
Hey. Please help.
- Call 911!
- Please help!
Be careful.
That way.
Put pressure on the wound, and check her BP.
(Emergency Center)
Mi Ran...
The wound better not be too deep.
It's impossible to perform surgery on her.
I know.
Once she gets anesthesia,
her blood vessels will expand,
and her body temperature
will drop even more.
It takes a week for her...
to regain her normal body temperature.
She needs to hang in there for a week.
If she doesn't...
The wound is deep.
Doctor, her temperature is 31.5℃.
We need to perform an emergency ventrotomy.
It's not possible to perform surgery on her.
She's a special patient
with low body temperature.
You can't give her any anesthesia.
Will you be able to operate on her...
when her body temperature returns?
Is it possible to get her
temperature back right now?
Even if it's not completely back to normal,
wouldn't you be able to operate on her...
if she's around 33℃?
If she can't get anesthesia,
we can't operate on her.
If she doesn't get surgery,
how long will she be able to hold on?
Her heart might stop...
within the next 24 hours.
Honey.
Director Ma. There is only one way.
We have to make a decision.
She has to...
go back into a cryonic capsule.
That's the only way.
When she does,
it'll stop the flow of her blood.
Even if she doesn't get
operated on right away,
we'll be able to stop her from bleeding.
But when she gets thawed,
she'll start bleeding again.
So we need her body...
to be in a state where it can...
endure the surgery as
soon as she gets thawed.
But her body temperature will still be low.
Yes.
So we're going to develop a medicine
that will enable her body...
to return to its normal temperature
as soon as she gets thawed.
I'll develop it.
I'll risk everything I have
to make sure I develop it.
I trust you.
I trust you, Director Ma.
Ma'am, I'm...
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
(Bureau Chief, Na Ha Young)
How did it go?
They had to put Mi Ran back
into the cryonic capsule.
She couldn't receive surgery
because she didn't have...
normal body temperature.
Okay, you can go.
Okay.
If I ever...
enter the capsule again,
don't join me.
If something like that happens to me,
protect me from outside the capsule.
Okay?
Don't worry about that.
Why would I enter another capsule?
Over my dead body.
(Ko Mi Ran)
(You'll never match up to me
because I like you a lot more.)
You'll never match up to me...
because I like you a lot more.
(Melting Me Softly)
I'm sorry you have to be
in the cold all by yourself.
Is Mi Ran doing well?
It seems like I was born to love him.
He makes my life complete.
That's how much I love him.
If only I could turn back time...
Mi Ran.
I miss you so much.
places, cases, and incidents...)
(in this drama are fictitious.)
I heard Dong Chan is meeting
Professor Hwang today.
Is he trying to get the shot first?
Who's that? I thought I
wasn't getting any backup.
- Wait here for a second.
- Okay.
The receiver cannot be reached.
You will be directed...
Why isn't he picking up?
(Police)
He's going to get another
shot on the sixth day.
We'll know if his body temperature
will return to normal...
24 hours after he receives that shot.
Hey, are you filming everything?
- Yes, don't worry.
- Okay.
Please roll down the window.
Hello?
What? So what happened?
How's Mi Ran? Is she okay?
That's a relief.
Okay, I understand. I'll call you back.
(Bureau Chief, Na Ha Young)
I want more people at
Cheongun Police Station.
There's going to be breaking news.
Prepare a clear photo of Terry Kim.
We'll see what kind of things he
could've disguised himself as.
I'll contact the CGI Team.
Do you feel better now?
Yes, how is Detective Baek?
Fortunately, he wasn't deeply stabbed.
So he got moved to the general ward.
I'm relieved to hear that.
When did a freshman learn how to drive?
During vacation.
But I haven't practiced much,
so I can't guarantee anything.
Hey, forget it. I'll drive.
You're not supposed to do
anything that strains the heart.
I'll drive slowly at 60km per hour.
Okay.
(Inferior)
Hello?
I noticed you called.
Did something happen?
No.
What's wrong with your voice?
Do you feel sick?
No.
I'm glad to hear that everything's okay.
I'll see you later. Bye.
(Episode 15: Hot Guy and Cold Girl)
Terry Kim's real name is Kim Hyeon Do.
He stole the identity of Jeong Ki
Seok, a homeless man,
who disappeared and has an ID
number that starts with 801204.
He's been using a fake identity.
Make sure you reveal his face
and personal information.
This will be our main news topic.
- Okay.
- Okay.
Let's go.
I must catch him.
(Information Division)
- Hello?
- Mi Ran?
Hey, Professor Hwang.
I'm sorry I couldn't keep our promise.
Director Ma ended up
taking the shot before you.
This morning.
Mr. Ma got it first?
Yes, I'm sorry I couldn't tell you.
He asked me not to tell you.
Is he doing okay right now?
Hello?
Dong Chan.
What's with your voice?
That guy got me,
and I'm in the hospital.
What? Are you seriously injured?
I got better now.
He...
somehow got a police car...
and pretended like he's a police officer.
You need to catch him soon.
He was...
trying to attack Ms. Ko.
- What?
- Hear me out to the end.
But he was countered...
by Ms. Ko and failed.
What about Mi Ran? Is she okay?
Have some for now.
Then we can start fighting.
You need to take some time off from work...
until he gets caught.
You're the one who needs some rest, not me.
No, I'm fine.
You don't look all right.
No, I...
I'm fine.
I'm sorry,
but I don't think I can eat anything yet.
Why didn't you tell me that
you'll get the injection?
You always do everything first.
I thought you might do it
before me if I told you.
I set up an appointment and even
was going to take a day off...
to get the injection.
Of course, you did.
But you shouldn't take a day off
but take a leave for a while...
until he's caught.
No, I can't do that.
I'm going to catch him.
What?
What is this?
The culprit is after us.
I'm going to spray this
whenever he shows up.
Hey, forget it. Don't get involved in this.
My gosh. Just let the police handle this.
Even the police were attacked.
You can focus on getting better.
I'll catch the culprit.
I already attacked him
first with a stun gun,
so he probably doesn't think we're a joke.
You need to stop watching Hollywood movies.
Do you think you're Wonder Woman?
Just stay home, will you?
Don't come to the office either.
Who are you trying to catch?
Are you out of your mind?
I'm bad at dating,
but I'm good at everything else.
I've done so many episodes on
"Infinite Experiment Paradise".
Every single fight is about taking the lead.
The more I get scared,
the more he'll think I'm a joke.
Hey, don't be ridiculous. You aren't...
This is a professional killer.
Get the right idea about your situation.
Let's go home. I'll give you a ride.
You can't give me a ride in that condition.
I'll go home alone.
Don't be ridiculous.
If Mr. Ma's test results look promising,
then will you inject the shots into
the other two subjects as well?
Chairman Lee will do it...
after he gets a little better.
We need to do this as soon
as possible for Ms. Ko.
She'll begin to build tolerance
against fever reducer.
I want to see Mr. Ma and Ms. Ko
return to their healthy condition.
We'll see that soon.
Were you here all along?
I'd love to be ill in your place.
In just a week,
we can do everything
that everyone else does.
We can go ride Disco Pang Pang
that you wanted to go on badly.
And?
And...
we can have a cup of hot Americano.
- And?
- And...
But it won't be in a week.
It'll be in two weeks.
Professor Hwang told me
to get injected in a week.
That makes it two weeks.
Yes.
You're right.
Even if you feel like throwing
up, have some food.
Professor Hwang said you
need to eat something.
The first day after the injection.
It has been 12 hours,
but there is no change
in my body temperature.
My heart rate is a bit irregular.
And I have a serious headache.
I can still feel a bit
of pressure on my heart.
I don't feel nauseated anymore,
but I still need iced water.
I am still a cryonic human.
Did you sleep well?
Yes, did you?
Yes.
Should I return to the
rooftop house tomorrow?
(Should I return to the
rooftop house tomorrow?)
Is that necessary?
(Is that necessary?)
I didn't fix my toilet yet.
What? I used your toilet yesterday.
(I used your toilet yesterday.)
It was fixed.
(It was fixed.)
The second day after the injection.
My body temperature is 32.8℃.
The third day after the injection.
The pain in my head and chest is gone,
but I am still a bit dizzy.
And my body takes turns
feeling hot and cold.
But it feels good.
It feels like the injection is working.
- The change in...
- Uncle Dong Chan, come and eat.
Okay. Give me a moment.
Okay.
Why aren't you going to work lately?
Did something happen?
No, nothing.
Nothing happened.
Hey, Dong Sik.
Will you keep working at the restaurant?
I should. What can I do?
There's not much I can do.
Why don't you open up a singing class...
for men?
I'm sure there are men
who'd love to learn to sing.
I woke up after 20 years,
but all I see are singing
classes for housewives.
- Dong Chan.
- Yes?
Things like that will definitely fail.
Guys only sing when they're drunk.
Okay, fine.
Hey, you should think about
getting back with Young Tak.
Don't make it that simple just
because this isn't your life.
I'm only saying because you
look rather calm these days.
You need him.
And he's the best partner for you.
Young Tak isn't an idiot.
He won't take her back.
He might faint and get
hospitalized if he hears that.
Shut it. I don't want him either.
I have high standards.
Young Tak is at the hospital.
He got hurt in an accident.
So visit him.
Why did he get hurt?
Gosh, I really don't like him.
Hey, stop dating weird guys...
and try to work it out with Young Tak.
When will you get married?
Get married? Nonsense.
I guess I should get married one day.
You should. You're 52.
You'll become 60 in no time.
60?
How about doing a parody on a
movie that was popular in 1999?
How about a concert with the
singers who were popular then?
Another channel did
something similar already.
- Yes...
- That's right.
"Infinite..."
We don't have to limit
ourselves to the year 1999.
These are images I found.
(90's Items)
It's a collection of the
trends from the 1990s.
(90's Items)
Isn't it nice?
We'll take popular music
and dramas from that time...
and dramatize it to the current times.
Really hot idols...
will have their hair in pigtails
and wear small sunglasses.
Let's dance
No, no, sir. Someone handsome has to do it.
I like this. You know that movie, don't you?
"Love Letter".
At the end, she goes...
Instead of that, we can say, "Let's dance!"
I wasn't going to get involved,
but it's too pathetic to watch.
If we make a show like
that, would you watch it?
Probably not.
Right? You need to take
a different approach.
It'd be better to take a 2019
item and apply it to 1999.
For example, take "Love Letter"...
and rewrite it to make a 2019 version.
Instead of a book in a library,
she can look at an app.
Instead of the bicycle,
the protagonist can ride
an electronic scooter.
Isn't this better?
Let's continue what we were discussing.
There's Lee Jung Hyun.
I had my doubts but you left me
Uhm Jung Hwa.
I don't know, I can't tell
I said stop! Don't do things like that.
What did I tell you?
You have to come up with shows
from the viewer's perspective.
Don't do things you want to do.
Just go to karaoke.
Then shoot it yourself.
That's what I want to do! I do.
Is the air conditioner on in here?
Yes. I turned it on for you.
I'm cold. Turn it off.
- Hurry up and turn on the camera.
- Okay.
Is it ready?
The current temperature is 33.3℃.
I've gone past the critical point.
There are no problems with my heart.
My hands and feet aren't numb either.
What's important...
is that I finally...
started to feel cold too.
What are you looking at?
Why did you decide to
participate in this experiment?
Don't you regret it?
It's been so difficult for you.
Would you do it again if
we could turn back time?
I should.
- Why?
- Because no one else will do it.
I should do things no
one else wants to do...
for a better tomorrow.
That's my calling as a director.
Can I treat you like my big brother?
Your big brother? Forget it.
I'm older than your dad.
Then should I call you an elder?
Yes. This elderly is going
to the President's Office.
Clean up the equipment.
Change my name in your contacts.
A correspondent in Washington?
I told you I'm resigning.
Yes. I know how you feel.
But if you leave like this,
that makes you more irresponsible.
Of course becoming a
correspondent in Washington...
isn't a job for a bureau chief.
That's why you should
consider this as a chance...
for you to be responsible.
Think of it as a demotion.
Stay there for two years.
It'll make you feel better too.
Did you say you'll return after two years?
I hope we can see each other...
as friends when I return.
Am I being too shameless?
We'll go for drinks then. As friends.
Take care of yourself and stay healthy.
I hope you'll stay happy.
Thank you.
I'm going to become even happier.
I really hope so.
What? Why...
How did you know I was here?
Dong Chan told me.
I came because I heard you're ill.
Are you okay?
What are you doing?
Dong Chan promised to give me 500 dollars...
if I send him a picture to
prove I came to see you.
- What?
- Stay still.
Smile.
I'm really sick.
Smile anyway. We're taking a picture.
Bunny ears.
What?
You want me to air his face on
our channel as a commercial?
- Yes.
- Gosh.
Do you know how much that would cost?
Also, it would never pass deliberation.
We have to catch him no matter what.
He's a murderer who killed two people.
But we still can't do that.
It's not possible.
Are you still on Lee Hyeong Du's side?
What did you say?
Lee Hyeong Du is targeting
us even from prison.
Mi Ran almost got in trouble.
Don't you know what I mean?
Hong Suk, don't you have a conscience?
You should try to be responsible...
and fix what you did wrong!
Dong Chan.
How could you...
- This is...
- Wait, wait.
My... My temperature isn't rising.
This...
My heart rate went up,
but my temperature is the same.
What's with him?
Mi Ran.
My temperature won't rise even
when I get agitated or mad.
Look.
- Really?
- Yes.
I'll make a quick trip
to see Professor Hwang.
Don't go home and wait here.
Don't go around by yourself.
Okay.
Let's shoot a teaser video
and promote it first.
The show's not until a month later.
Do you want to shoot a teaser now?
It's a strategy to secure air time.
We'll air the teaser of the new show...
for a month on TBO.
We'll shoot short commentaries
outdoors like introductions.
It'll get people's hopes up.
We'll only show the backside
of the stars we're casting...
to get people curious.
Mi Ran, can you get a list of the cast?
- Yes, sir.
- Okay.
It'd be best if the cast
works well together.
Did you come back?
What did Professor Hwang say?
Let's go. We can talk on our way home.
Okay.
Are you cold?
Yes, isn't it cool?
Should I just get the shot tomorrow?
No, just wait a few more days.
It's not over until it's over.
Professor Hwang told me that
I need to get one last shot...
and see how I react to that to be sure.
Are you really cold?
- Yes.
- This is so cool.
I'm starting to get cold
a lot easier than before.
I feel like my body is slowly
starting to react to the shot.
And this might be the biggest
change I've experienced...
ever since I got the shot.
My current body temperature is 34.7°C.
My goodness.
Hey, Mi Ran's smart with many things.
But she's not so clever when
it comes to Director Ma.
She doesn't know how to
take control of her man.
It's because she likes him.
I think she really likes him.
Do you think so?
Just a second.
Hey, honey.
I was just having a
conversation with my friend...
about life, society, and culture.
I love you too.
Don't work too much but earn a lot of money.
Okay?
I'll call you later.
My gosh.
You only just met him, and you're
already telling him you love him?
Back in the days,
guys used to approach me
whenever they got the chance.
But dating at our age
isn't an easy thing to do.
I should make the best of it.
Mom, I'm home.
- Hey, Aunt.
- Did you eat?
I ate with my coworkers and Mi Ran.
She's your mom, I'm your aunt,
and Mi Ran's your friend?
This is really complicated. It really is.
Are you having fun at work?
Yes.
Being a director seems really cool.
I'm going to be a great director
just like Director Ma Dong Chan.
Ma Dong Chan? Mi Ran's boyfriend?
You guys have such a peculiar relationship.
What do you think about getting
frozen in a cryonic capsule?
What do you mean?
I mean, you're going through
a hard time right now.
Haven't you ever wanted...
to escape reality...
and start a new life in a better future?
No.
I may have gotten a divorce,
but I'm happy...
thanks to my son.
Watching you grow up like this...
is the source of my happiness.
What's the use of waking up in 20 years?
I wouldn't be able to see you grow up.
And not much will be
different after 20 years...
or any other time in the future.
It's like postponing your homework.
Life is all about suffering anyway.
What about you? Would you enter the capsule?
No, I also feel happy...
being able to live in the
same time period as you.
I've raised an incredible son.
Nice.
I went jogging today,
and I'm completely fine.
I'm serious.
By the way,
what should we do today? It's our day off.
- Do you feel okay?
- It's really cool here.
- I see.
- Isn't it cold there?
No, not at all.
Will you close the door? It's freezing.
- It's cold.
- What are you doing?
- I'm sorry.
- It's freezing.
- I'm sorry.
- You've been keeping it open.
- What's with you?
- Seriously.
- I'm sorry.
- My goodness.
My gosh.
Are you that cold? You could stay outside.
No, I'm not cold.
And...
And you can't be alone.
Make sure you take me
with you wherever you go.
Even when you go outside to buy sikhye.
You're not fully cured yet.
What if you catch a cold?
That shouldn't happen.
See? You should wait outside.
No, I can't do that either.
I should warm myself up.
I'll rub my hands.
Gosh, I can't do this.
You know what? Let's just go somewhere else.
Where?
Just follow me.
Is there anything else you want to do?
There are loads of stuff.
Like what?
I want to take you for a ride on a bicycle.
And I want to go to a proper sauna.
I also want to go see the stars with you.
Just wait a bit more.
Let's do everything we
want to do together, okay?
Okay.
Hey, stop it.
Your body temperature will rise.
I got myself a hot cup of coffee.
My gosh, that's nice and warm.
That looks so nice.
You traitor.
This is good too.
You'll soon be able to drink
something warm as well.
Director Ma, let's go home now.
You want to go home already?
We don't have much time until
we shoot "Go Go 99" again,
so I have a lot of work to do.
I need to go to the office.
So you should go home and spend time alone.
You want me to go home and spend time alone?
My gosh, you're really cold-hearted.
Of course. I'm a cryonic human.
I should get some drinks for my teammates.
- Thank you.
- Here you go.
- Bye.
- Thank you.
Let's go.
I'll come pick you up once you're done.
No, it's okay. The police promised to come.
You don't need to worry.
You should go home before midnight.
I'm not Cinderella.
You should go now.
Let's wait like seniors...
who are waiting for their KSATs.
- Okay.
- Okay.
- I'll be off now.
- Okay.
The fifth day.
My body temperature won't go up anymore.
There's no change in my temperature.
Will it be all right?
You just got injected with the final shot.
Let's wait and see.
This is the final step in returning
to your normal temperature.
Things may get pretty tough today.
We cannot use more drugs on you today.
You must live through this all by yourself.
Don't worry.
Hello?
I'm in regret right now.
About what?
I should have followed you
no matter what you said.
I should've been there with you.
I know you miss me, but hold yourself back.
And don't be worried either.
Go home early.
Tell me if you're in pain.
I'll run over right away.
Okay. I'm completely fine.
- Are you sure?
- Yes.
I'm a bit sleepy right now.
I have to go to sleep.
Okay.
Let me know if it gets too tough. Okay?
Okay.
Here.
Thank you.

("A Cold Woman's Warm Heart", by Ko Mi Ran)
Dong Chan has been weird lately.
He's always in his room
muttering to himself.
And he sleeps so much, doesn't he?
He keeps on sleeping like
he's a 100-day-old baby.
In movies that deal with cryonic humans,
they sometimes age overnight, right?
That's not his case, is it?
That can't happen.
It can't. That's just too unfair.
(Inferior)
Hello?
Mi Ran, I...
Right now, I...
I'm...
at 36.5℃ right now.
Really?
You're really at 36.5℃ right now?
This is great.
I'm so glad.
Mi Ran.
I'm sorry and thank you.
At first,
it seemed hopeless, unfair, and devastating.
But come to think about it now,
there were good things too.
Like what?
You.
Thanks to this, we got to share the time...
that only we know about.
And...
we fell in love too.
Wait just a little more.
We'll be able to live...
just like everyone else.
I have the test result.
Everything looks normal.
(Test Result)
We did it.
Congratulations.
You finally became a normal human.
Thank you. Then can Mi Ran be injected soon?
If she's up for it,
I'll prepare it right away.
Yes, I'll talk to Mi Ran.
Let me tell my family about it.
You were born again today.
Have a bite.
Okay.
It's really good, Mom.
It's not hot anymore.
Thank you, my son.
Thank you, Mom, for waiting.
Congratulations, Dong Chan.
You never even had a drop of alcohol.
It must've been tough.
You aren't a frozen human anymore.
You can't make a YouTube channel anymore.
Dong Chan, we should go to the sauna.
We can rub each other's backs
and sweat off our fatigue.
- Let's do that, okay?
- Okay, sauna sounds great.
After the sauna, let's grab a drink.
Let's have all the drinks that
you couldn't have to this day,
and let's get wasted.
Aunt Dong Ju, stop trying to
use him as an excuse to drink.
I'll tell Grandma all about it.
Don't be so naughty.
Quiet down, everyone.
Be quiet so Dong Chan can eat.
- Eat up, now. Eat up.
- Okay.
Eat up.
You should get the shot tomorrow.
We're shooting the teaser tomorrow,
so I'll get it the day after.
Work isn't important right now.
Did you forget who got me...
to become passionate about being a director?
Are you serious? Then...
I'll play your bodyguard
until the suspect is caught.
Tell me where the shoot is tomorrow.
Are you coming to the shoot?
Yes. I'm going to go.
It's so frustrating to
watch how your team works.
By the way, why are you wearing this watch?
You don't need it.
When you become 36.5℃, we'll get...
matching watches.
Okay.
Gosh.
Can you check the times on
the video files in here?
Yes.
Are you going somewhere?
Yes. I have to go somewhere.
Are you saying...
that you have...
normal body temperature now?
Yes.
My goodness.
Your hand is really warm.
It's warm.
If Mi Ran gets her shot,
she'll become normal just like me...
in one week.
Yes!
Does that mean she's not
a cryonic person anymore?
That's right.
You went through so much
trouble, haven't you?
I was shameless.
I never apologized to you properly.
Mi Ran...
will be able to live like
other ordinary people.
Please just wait a week.
Thank you so much.
Please forget about...
how much we hated...
and resented you.
Don't worry about it,
Mother and Father.
I'm...
the world's first cryonic man, Ma Dong Chan.
Hello?
I have a package I want to send.
The receiver's name is Ma Dong Chan.
Yes. I'll give you the address.
Please come this way.
Put the props behind the camera.
- Okay, okay.
- Take them away.
(Let's go to 1999!)
This is getting in the shot, so go higher...
Can you check this one?
- Are you feeling less nervous?
- Yes.
When you use the stage,
make sure you spread out.
Please step back a little bit.
They have so much time.
Why are they shooting the teaser already?
I guarantee you...
the teaser will be completely
different from the actual show.
- Mi Ran! Mi Ran!
- Blood! Blood!
What happened?
- Hey.
- Are you okay?
Ko Mi Ran!
Hey! Wake up.
Mi Ran.
Hey. Please help.
- Call 911!
- Please help!
Be careful.
That way.
Put pressure on the wound, and check her BP.
(Emergency Center)
Mi Ran...
The wound better not be too deep.
It's impossible to perform surgery on her.
I know.
Once she gets anesthesia,
her blood vessels will expand,
and her body temperature
will drop even more.
It takes a week for her...
to regain her normal body temperature.
She needs to hang in there for a week.
If she doesn't...
The wound is deep.
Doctor, her temperature is 31.5℃.
We need to perform an emergency ventrotomy.
It's not possible to perform surgery on her.
She's a special patient
with low body temperature.
You can't give her any anesthesia.
Will you be able to operate on her...
when her body temperature returns?
Is it possible to get her
temperature back right now?
Even if it's not completely back to normal,
wouldn't you be able to operate on her...
if she's around 33℃?
If she can't get anesthesia,
we can't operate on her.
If she doesn't get surgery,
how long will she be able to hold on?
Her heart might stop...
within the next 24 hours.
Honey.
Director Ma. There is only one way.
We have to make a decision.
She has to...
go back into a cryonic capsule.
That's the only way.
When she does,
it'll stop the flow of her blood.
Even if she doesn't get
operated on right away,
we'll be able to stop her from bleeding.
But when she gets thawed,
she'll start bleeding again.
So we need her body...
to be in a state where it can...
endure the surgery as
soon as she gets thawed.
But her body temperature will still be low.
Yes.
So we're going to develop a medicine
that will enable her body...
to return to its normal temperature
as soon as she gets thawed.
I'll develop it.
I'll risk everything I have
to make sure I develop it.
I trust you.
I trust you, Director Ma.
Ma'am, I'm...
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
(Bureau Chief, Na Ha Young)
How did it go?
They had to put Mi Ran back
into the cryonic capsule.
She couldn't receive surgery
because she didn't have...
normal body temperature.
Okay, you can go.
Okay.
If I ever...
enter the capsule again,
don't join me.
If something like that happens to me,
protect me from outside the capsule.
Okay?
Don't worry about that.
Why would I enter another capsule?
Over my dead body.
(Ko Mi Ran)
(You'll never match up to me
because I like you a lot more.)
You'll never match up to me...
because I like you a lot more.
(Melting Me Softly)
I'm sorry you have to be
in the cold all by yourself.
Is Mi Ran doing well?
It seems like I was born to love him.
He makes my life complete.
That's how much I love him.
If only I could turn back time...
Mi Ran.
I miss you so much.
