Only One Person (2021–…): Season 1, Episode 7 - Episode #1.7 - full transcript

[All characters, organizations, events, religions, etc. Portrayed in this series are strictly fictional.]

Since my life is like this white paper, this is all I have to write.

[Bye]
(T/N: In Korean, hello and bye are same which is annyeong)

There are two kinds of greetings. Bye...
[Bye]

and...

[Hello?]

hello.

Separation could be a beginning to new meetings,

or perhaps separation is necessary in order for new meetings to exist.

There are banal sayings like that.

Sure, it may be that, if my mom hadn't left in that way,



Just let me say goodbye, just a goodbye!

then I wouldn't have been so stubborn that day.
- Hey, where are you going!

I wouldn't have gotten out of the car,

and I wouldn't have been able to hear that sound.

If things went that way, I wouldn't have been able to grab that dying child's hand,

and that child

would have left this world.

Now, the time has come for me to say goodbye again.

Will I be able to do well, this time?

[Episode 7 : Greetings]

What happens if I have this?

- Why do you have this?
- I'm asking, what can I do if I have this?

[1]

I have this phone, so it would be best for you to not mess with anyone.



[1]

It will be tracked.

But the police is here right now...

What are we going to do? Where do we hide it?

On that evening, do you remember the whereabouts of your roommate, Pyo In Sook?

After the visitation, I took my sleeping pills, and fell asleep. I don't remember anything.

Ah, around that time, I was struggling with a sleepwalking condition.

- Sleepwalking?
- Yes.

I found out about it later, as well.

- When did you come to find out about it?
- After that day.

That day?

Yes... After the visitation day.

Why was it the day after that? Did something happen that day?

Did your symptoms start on that day?

No, I had already been walking around the hospice for a while.

In Sook saw me on the first day she came to the hospice,

but since I can't remember anything... she said she thought it was strange.

Excuse me.

- Yes.
- The phone signal turned on.

The hospice is within the 1-2 kilometer radius. Morning Light.

Let me trouble you for a moment.

I think you are already doing so.

May I have a look at your bag?

You're going to keep going?

What is the matter here?

There's a possibility that important evidence is inside of the hospice, so I'm in the middle of a search.

Do you mind if I search you for a moment?

Don't you need a search warrant or something?

A primary suspect is right here.

Didn't you say he was a testifier?

What?

Why the police?

A-are they looking for me, too?

Y-yeah okay, I got it, I'm bringing back something tasty.

Are they reporters? Why have they been like that all day? Living like that must suck.

Hey, I think I might have to leave.

Let's go together, I'll take you.

When people are waiting like that?

They've been over there all day, we might as well let them take a photo.

Let's go.

- That person who called earlier, 1, are they the person on top?
- Yeah.

Who might that be?

We'll have to find that out.

As long as we have the phone, they won't be able to rashly go after your grandmother.

I have to find out what kind of guy he is, and what's inside of that phone.

But if that person gets caught, you get caught too.

Since you're the one who took murder commissions.

- I don't care about that.
- I care.

But what exactly are you basing your confidence on?

Would a nun help you do something bad?

- How far have things progressed?
- Oh, my heart.

- What is going on here?
- Has a whole army showed up?

This is crazy.

Alright, everyone! Please head to your rooms and wait. Please actively cooperate with the investigation.

I mean, we have to know what's going on in order to cooperate!

If the police swarms in like that– oh! I'm so afraid!

I heard earlier that this has to do with the moss rose flower murder case!

What? Murder? Who did?

Did Woo Cheon? Wait, didn't they say something about coming to investigate In Sook?

No, no. They are testifiers.

- But why are they testifying?
- Why?

- You're stuttering right now.
- You know something, but you won't tell us!

I understand! I understand. Wait a moment. Wait just a moment.

There's a secret, there's a secret.

Well, as the patients are very disturbed,

you may need to explain the extent of the situation just a bit.

If you could just tell me a little about what you are looking for...

The details of the investigation are confidential.

What is confidential?

I heard everything you were talking about over there!

The moss rose murder case happened nearby In Sook's house,

and Woo Cheon was in the vicinity on that day.

Wait a second! Why was Woo Cheon nearby In Sook's house?

Since when have they known each other?

- She said they didn't know each other yet.
- How would you know that?

The dead man's daughter is my friend.

- Did that kid come here?
- Yes.

- She came to see In Sook.
- Is that right?

- So that means that she knew she was here.
- What?

The day of the incident was the hospice's visitation day.

Did anyone here witness Pyo In Sook's whereabouts from that night?

I did! She was in her room.

No... that day, didn't you say you saw something?

Th-that day...

That day...

I saw them.

Oh my! It's so loud! That must be Magdalene.

- Did you say you saw three people?
- Pardon? I can't hear you!

Did you say you saw three people?

- I'm not sure!
- What were they doing?

I think they were on their way back from somewhere.

We went to the club that day.

You went to the club, you say? Kang Se Yeong is saying she can't remember anything from that day.

Yes, that's how it turned out. We found out she was a sleepwalker when she couldn't remember anything the next day.

Ah! I think I posted a photo that day!

Here.

9:15 p.m.

Did you get to the party at that time?

No, I think we went around when the party started. Was it 7:00 p.m?

Is there anyone among the party attendants that can verify that?

Well, a lot of my friends were there,

but since there were so many people, I don't know if they will remember...

My best friend who threw the birthday party is the Public Prosecutor General's daughter.

Her name is Ho Seon!

There is. There is.

If we get tangled in it at this rate, the blame could shift to us ex-convicts.

I went in for drugs. Love and peace. That's a long way from murder.

What about you? What were you in for? Assault?

- Ey...
- Adultery?

Don't smile.

I'm most curious about our Hyungnim.

Oh, hello! It's nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

Yes, hello.

I'm Oh Jin Kyu, who's in charge of the investigation.

You're LE Group's Director Koo Ji Pyo, right?

What is it for? I heard that you don't even have a search warrant.

That's true,

but I can't talk about it in detail since it's confidential. It's connected to a big case.

I ask for your understanding. I'm sorry.

Hey, hey!

- Oppa!
- Hey.

It's been a while.

Do you know him?

Yes. Let's do that.

Is it okay if I call you again in a bit? Bye.

- What are you here for?
- Please excuse me.

Are you searching here too? I'm the only one who uses this room though.

Do you like wine?

The wine there are all vintage and since they're old, they smell really good.

You know that smell has the strongest memory trigger, right?

Hey! Why are you here? Isn't it your time to help Noona Young Ji?

- Did you just leave her when you're done?
- She said you'll be there soon anyway

so it's okay for me to leave.

Where are you going?

- Volunteer work.
- You can't do that right now.

- I have to go right now.
- We're looking for something.

- Or you can just be obedient and give it to us.
- It's past the shift rotation time.

- I can't leave the patient by herself.
- You can do it later.

- I really have to go.
- If you keep doing this, we can take you to the police station.

- I have to go.
- Hey, hold on to him.

What's going on? Oh no!

Get him!

- You must like wine, eh?
- Yes! I love wine!

Just a second.

Director! We've got trouble! Hurry up!

Noona!

Noona! Noona! Noona!

- Noona! Open your eyes.
- Move.

Noona!

Noona!

Hurry and go to the doctor's office

- and ask Doctor Jo to come.
- I will.

Open your eyes, please!

Noona!

Young Ji.

What should we do?

What are you doing? All of us here are dying.

Whether you search quietly or stop turning things upside down and just go away!

If she dies, I'm suing you.

You people have no sympathy.

Can you do this if it were your own family?

Calm down and head back to your rooms.

- Aigoo.
- How can they do this?

Why does he have the cellphone?

- C-cellphone?
- I see that you didn't know.

Just what do you know? It all got twisted like this because you don't know what's going on with the job requested.

However, the higher ups are always faster than me when it comes to information.

I reported to them that woman is the real killer

but what happens now that he has the cellphone?

On top of that, that guy and that woman are in the same hospice.

So what's going on? Are those two on the same side? Why? Since when?

T-they met by coin-coincidentally.

Coincidentally?

Coincidentally, huh?

What are you going to do by taking the cellphone? What are you those two planning?

I t-think they fell in l-love.

L-l-love?

What happened?

Are you okay?

I fell.

Without being able to squirm

and just helplessly lying down,

I thought I was going to die like that.

My condition had been really bad these days.

Of course, I was getting myself ready.

If I die like this,

I thought I'd at least be of help to you.

How could you say that?

I liked it.

Even if I were to have a chance to live again,

I won't change anything

and live the same life I've lived up to now

once more.

Because of Ji Hoo,

because Ji Hoo exists,

for the moment I met her...

For the two of you too,

I think you'll have that kind of moment too.

I think we need to talk.

I killed him. This cellphone is of the deceased.

So the culprit of the "Moss Rose Case" is you, In Sook?

No. It's me.

- It's you?
- No.

"Bear one another's burdens," that's what it says in Galatians 6:2-5.

Is that what's going on right now?

Anyway, it seems that the truth is in here.

You must not! They will catch the signal.

We didn't kill him.

Is that right? Then we can just give this to the police.

It's not that easy. We didn't kill him but the police are zooming in on us.

If there is no information in there, they'll have no choice but to blame it on us.

The world's logic is mostly simple.

- The police will come again.
- We just need to give this to them then.

The police will come anyway so I'll give it to them and turn myself in.

No.

Fine. Do that then.

By the way, this is the basement so the phone signal probably won't work.

I have a good feeling about this. It's in the hospice for sure.

The most likely suspect is there and we got the signal from there. It all fits

but we don't have any evidence.

Excuse me.

That patient will be okay, right?

They told us not to touch the hospice.

- Said who?
- The high ups.

Because we searched without a warrant, there's a lot of talk right now.

If they hear about a patient being in danger, it might create more trouble too.

Min Woo Cheon doesn't seem to be the suspect

and we even let him go saying he isn't the one.

- He's under investigation without detention.
- Either way.

- Is it LE Group?
- It could be.

The higher ups are all somehow connected

- like a bromance.
- LE Group sponsors that hospice.

The boyfriend comes and says "Don't touch them!" That must be it.

I'm worried that you're having a lot of exposure these days.

All the articles are about you. If you're exposed, people will somehow find fault.

They will want to tear you into pieces. That's a person's mentality.

- They enjoy seeing someone crumble down.
- It's all gossip.

- It will pass.
- Your feelings aren't part of the gossip?
- That's right.

- Are you going to get married?
- I'm thinking about it.

I'm also thinking.

Well, I don't see marriage as a big deal.

Since it has come to this, getting married would look better than dating and breaking up with a terminally ill woman.

In a world where the rich stir up trouble by getting divorced,

you can cleanly end it with the love story of the century.

Look, look, look at that. Is that a crane?

Hey Makdal, come out. There is a show here.

Just look at him, acting so stupidly. They should hire some other people.

Aigoo I'm so hungry. Who would be able to stand it? They would leave as soon as they got hired once he starts fussing.

Oh my! My stomach is rumbling.

Where are we going for our picnic? Did we decide to vote by majority?

Yeong Ji said she wanted to go to the sea.

I wonder if she'll even be able to go.

Well, it does seem like the crisis has passed.

The crisis has to pass, because crisis is our fate.

Did they say that they wanted to go anywhere?

They...

have something off about them.

What are we going to do about the phone?

If they come looking again...

Now they won't be able to come.

If something happens to Yeong Ji, we can cover it up by blaming the police for her death...

What? You can talk about someone else's death so easily?

You want us to use that?

Why are you play saint whenever urgent issues arise?

Isn't all of this because of you, anyway? Why did you bring it here?

-Since you keep doing things independently–
-Yeah, I'm independent.

I committed the crime independently, and I'm going to act independently.

At any rate, the police is suspecting me, and if I come out on the DNA examination results, things will be even cleaner.

Don't worry, I'm going to end this on my own.

-Where are you going?
-What's her deal?

Stop fighting!

- Ji Woo.
- Yes?

- Are you going to school?
- Yes.

- Why?
- Nothing.

You're asking why I'm going to school while my mother is like that, aren't you?

Yeah.

My mom would want me to go to school.

I have to live the way I have been, in order for her to feel at peace.

Possibly, if there is any chance that

she passes away while I'm not here, I will be alright.

Because we have had plenty of time to say goodbye.

I'll be off!

Bye.

Goodbye...

[Pyo In Sook]

I'm going to turn myself in.

- What?
- So don't touch my grandmother.

And... give me some time.

There's no time. There's really no time.

I'm dying. I'm terminally ill. I have to at least say goodbye.

So did you really meet him there for the first time, and become like that?

- What are you talking about?
- Well, that is...

Falling in love with Baek Gu...

Shut up.

I won't be long, I don't have many people to say goodbye to.

That guy has the phone, doesn't he? Hand that over first.

I am going to say goodbye first.

You were here?

Yeah.

Did you stay up all night?

How is Yeong Ji?

She's alright.

That's a relief.

Hurry and go sleep.

Where are you going?

To say goodbye.

- Goodbye?
- Do you know why dying is sad?

Because of the people left behind.

That's everything.

You said you threw the phone in the trash, but I think someone took it.

Who?

I'm in the middle of figuring that out, but I have one thing to ask you.

Alright.

Did you go to the hospice?

How did you know?

Why the hospice?

The phone's signal was caught in that vicinity.

- Are you crazy?
- This would be very memorable.

Is that a mourning outfit?

You are so young, why are you always dressing in such drab clothes?

My insides feel jet-black just looking at you!

My grandmother's wish is for me to wear a flower-patterned dress.

How is this?

I'll try it on and come out.

Smile a little, I never see you smile.

I don't even remember the last time you smiled.

She said she wanted to see me smile,

and after that...

what was it? Why can't I remember all of a sudden?

There was something else...

To start off...

It doesn't suit you.

- It doesn't?
- No, not really.

Why have you been like that since before? Why would you follow me and spoil the vibe?

Just be the way you are. Things like this don't comfort the people you're leaving.

It will be even sadder to remember things like this.

What's sadder than you making up your mind and saying goodbye?

- Then what should I do?
- You shouldn't give up!

Don't make it obvious that you gave up by being like this.

Then what should I do?

Should I throw a fit, saying that I want to keep living?

That might be better, actually.

To be honest, I don't think that I'll die.

For some reason, I don't think that I'll die. I can't believe it.

I feel like a miracle will happen for once in my life, and some nights I stay up all night hoping for something like that.

"Yeah, I am going to live."

So I pushed off telling my grandmother.

But, that doesn't make any sense.

So I have to tell my grandmother goodbye.

Because she needs time to prepare.

Grandma, I'm home!

Why?

I mean, is that so surprising?

Why did you come? Without even a call?

I wanted to surprise you.

How do I look? Pretty?

Yeah, you look pretty.

Why do you keep smiling?

Food! Did you eat?

Isn't foreign food covered in grease?

I have a lot of your favorite foods.

Come in, come in.

Come in, come and sit down.

This isn't leftovers,

I bought it.

-Grandma, why would you buy this?
-I bought it for you, in case you came.

I put in a lot of eggs.

When did you think I would come?

It's jangjorim!
(T/N: Soy sauce braised beef)

Alright, eat up.

Eat!

- It's good!
- Eat up.

Eat a lot.

You shouldn't mess with the child. What could you get from her?

What brought you here?

In Sook said she was saying goodbye to her grandmother.

Where is the phone?

That came out of nowhere.

Why do you keep asking me that? It's been a while since I turned myself in and got set free.

You're still trying to get the phone from me?

How should a person facing death say goodbye?

It's better to not do so, isn't it?

Every day is the same. When you get old, every day is the same!

But that's all that I wished for.

I wished for every day to be the same.

Grandma, I'm alright. Okay?

I'm still alright.

Why didn't you say anything?

Do you think that I would be able to live if I found out after you died?

- That's not it...
- Why didn't you say anything? You should have told me first!

So that I could do something, anything for you!

- There's nothing.
- What?

You already did everything for me.

Now you don't have to do anything, Grandma. Okay?

I was just... scared of you knowing.

Because you might be like this.

If you're like this, I can't say anything.

I can't comfort you, or say anything nice.

- So...
- Who asked you to do that?

Did your sickness appear because you didn't eat well?

When you were younger, you wanted to eat bananas and cheese so badly, but I didn't buy it for you.

I thought that not eating at all would be better than eating only a little, so I didn't buy it for you.

I thought that you would be uselessly getting rid of your appetite.

When I couldn't buy you a lot.

was it because I made you drink the water that you hated so much?

Was it wrong for me to put everything I saw on TV for healthy water?

Good things in large quantities can become poison.

- Grandma, it's not like that. You know it's not like that!
- So what caused it?

Shouldn't there be a reason? They should at least give you a reason!

- What kind of reason? I'm just unlucky!
- That's what I'm saying!

Why are you unlucky!

How would I know?

Look around! Look at the way things are!

I've always been this way with you!

Even when I come to say a nice goodbye, you keep saying things that don't make sense!

There has to be a reason.

Why you? What did you do wrong?

Why my child?

What is all this?

You've never done anything wrong.

You've never committed any sins.

Just take me instead! It would be better off that way!

I can't send her away...

My child.

Let's go.

You can't do this to me.

It's not right to do this to me.

I put up with all kinds of dirty things throughout my life,

I lived until now without a single complaint.

I never wished for anything much.

I never even blamed anyone for my fate.

I keep looking back, and I've always been that way.

All I wish for...

there's only one thing that I wish for,

and it's that my In Sook could live happily and healthily. That's all I wished for.

You can't do this to me!

You shouldn't do this to me!

I only wished for one thing!

I only wished for my In Sook to live happily and healthily!

You can't do this to me!

Sometimes I cry while running.

It's pretty difficult, to be honest.

I tried doing it ever since I was young,

but if I run, tears don't come out.

- Because the tears dry up?
- No,

because I'm too busy trying to breathe.

You ran like this... ever since you were young?

Yeah.

Can you not just cry?

- I didn't want to cry.
- Why not?

Because there was no one who I wanted to comfort me.

Where are you going?

You went back there?

- You definitely can't get divorced.
- Why not?

- Do I have to listen to you until the day I die?
- I changed the bank book's name back too.

- Mom!
- Because of that little bit of money,

I don't want to hear that my daughter's getting divorced while about to die.

- What?
- In a little while, your husband will go to pick you up.

Since I'll take care of you and your mother in law, don't worry, and just come back.

I'm hanging up.

No one can understand what I'm saying.

They all think that nothing is wrong,

so they think that I'm the only one with problems.

Knock knock. Hey,

do you remember the divorce lawyer I told you about?

He was my client. Since he had business to attend to nearby, I asked him to come over.

- Let's meet with him.
- I'm alright.

You're alright?

So you are going to leave your mother to live like a maid in that house, and die?

- Okay.
- No, that's not it...

I plan on trying to talk to my husband again...

Hey, it's pretty easy to divorce a guy who's obviously horrible.

It's harder to divorce a guy only slightly bad.

I'm not getting mad at you or anything. The lawyer specializes in this, just try and meet him once.

I told him everything I know.

So have a seat, and ask whatever you're curious about.

Lawyer.

Has it been 20 years?

You haven't changed one bit.

You protected it.

- What?
- Your face.

George Orwell said - "Once you turn 50

one attains a face that speaks of one's value."

But in reality, he died when he was 46.

Even I don't want to see it.

My face which speaks of my worth or whatever.

Should I call it a relief that I might die before that?

Even now, whenever I see myself in the mirror, I get surprised.

Is this me? Is this my face?

Come to think about it... I was always escaping.

I couldn't protect anything.

Since then...

All I did was escape.

So...

Is he my boyfriend?

- Yes.
- Yes, he is.

We've kissed, but haven't slept together yet.

You.. why are you telling me all that?

Not... yet?

When did mom die?

Why do you jump around without context in a conversation?

Date.

February 21st.

It's not far off.

I hope I die on that day.

- Hey... what?
- It's nice to do it together on the same day.

- Do what?
- Ancestral rites.

My mother died in May.

I will do it together for you on that day. Live a little longer

Spring is nice.

I don't know your mother. Eating together is weird.

- I don't give food.
- You should make offerings.

- I only light candles.
- It has no sincerity.

The atmosphere is fine. I light beautiful candles.

Ok then.

But still, one beer...?

- No need. At least bottled water?
- Don't say such things.

Why are you suddenly being like this?

I am sorry.

- What for?
- I keep getting this thought.

Continuously, somehow

if I would've lived together with your mom... you and your mom...

if you were together,

maybe it wouldn't have turned out like this-

If it were that way, I wouldn't have met Woo Cheon.

Come to think about it, everything was a chain reaction.

If it was that way, then I wouldn't be here with him.

So, it's alright. We should just live on.

Though I lost one thing, I gained something else.

- You should think like this to live comfortably.
- Don't act cool.

- There's no reason you'd be alright.
- I am not trying to act cool.

It just doesn't feel real to me.

Because I don't know what dying is like.

How that approaches you, or what happens...

I don't know a thing, so I still feel fine.

My father wanted to die along with me.

Because living was hard.

He wanted to take me and my mom, but he died alone.

But you abandoned your kid to live alone like this.

On the wall of In Sook's house, there was a photo of Venice.

I had asked her, why is it Venice?

When I asked that, she said that her father called it heaven.

Stop it.

That's why I want to go there.

[Electronic Ticket Itinerary & Receipt]

[Min Woo Cheon]

They say around this time is nice.

- How can I go to this place?
- By plane.

No. Why did you buy this? It's not even a penny or two.

I just bought it. I will go there.

- With you, together, I will go there somehow. So-
- Stop kidding.

If you are like this, how would I feel?

Let's go to Venice.

- I don't have a ticket for you.
- I will buy it.

I also want to go, with you. So...

Why women other than Pyo In Sook?

No. No, no.

It doesn't match with Pyo In Sook's DNA.

I am saying it's not Pyo In Sook.

- Earlier the components that were detected on the golf club-
- Sun cream.

It was stuck on the head of the golf club.

- I know, I know.
- You know, right?

Let me pass by.

Personal Identity Information.

Full Name: Kang Chang Il, Hong Jang Mi, Oh Yeong Chan.

Yes, I had gone on the visiting day.

Can I ask you what conversation you had?

It was a general visit. That I was sorry

for not taking care of her and having her live at Hospice.

- It seems like you like golf.
- Yes.

I thought I left that there that day.

It was there, like that, when I came back home.

By any chance, did you bring the golf club to Hospice that day?

That... Is my wife related to the murder case somehow?

It is her.

- She also tried to kill me.
- Mom!

At night, she entered my room and-

tried to choke me.

Why is it my Se Yeon?

Why? Why are you all like this to her?

I heard you asked the lawyer to take up the case.

Yes.

But did you already know each other?

Yes.

She's a senior from college.

Hey, it must be fate. That's good.

Mom.

Where I was at this time?

You were not there.

What?

10 years ago

- you were not in this world.
- Ahh.

- Are you sad?
- No, why?

It's like that.

What?

Dying is

like that.

Just not being here...

It's like going back

to before you were born.

It's not sad, right?

Yes. It's not sad mom.

It's weird...

What?

I remember that scene.

The first time I went to the sea,

I lost the ring my mom gave me

on the beach.

I searched through the sand for a long time.

I looked and looked.

I don't know how much time passed like that.

Around the time I forgot what I was even looking for,

I stopped and looked up.

The view in front of me was so beautiful.

It was as if

my life was that way.

Mom loves you more

[Lion]

Take care.

Don't be sick anymore.

Hello.

And.

Bye.

Either way,

greetings are not something you can prepare for.

[The One and Only]

Though my mom passed away, I think it was a happy ending.

In the video, someone suspected to be Ha's daughter...

What about the wrongs my dad did to me?

I have evidence that they ordered the murder.

Do you want to team with them and die, or team up with me and live?

That woman is dying! Why do you have to do this?

In Sook will never turn herself in because I won't let her do so.

- Let's get married.
- I'm scared. I feel like I just started becoming happy...

Let's do it. The most intense thing that a man and a woman can do.
