Episode 12
Is it okay if I ask you something?
Sure.
Did Officer Kwak...
tell you that Geunho was filmed entering this building?
Geunho was here?
Mucheol never told me that.
Geunho came?
Mucheol watches the video all day. but he never told me.
Why didn't he?
Do Doohee and Daebeom's family have a history?
History...
They do...
Someone told me...
Doohee and Daebeom's dad used to be best friends
before the incident here.
But after the incident, they become arch-enemies.
Why?
On the day of the incident,
Daebeom's dad said he was fishing with Doohee, which he denied.
So Daebeom's dad was accused of being the killer
because Doohee's statement was conclusive.
Then how old was Constable Kwak?
I was 11 then...
And Mucheol's four years older. So he was in the 7th grade.
He must have been in the 7th grade.
Angok Middle School Kwak Mucheol.
You killed her, didn't you?
You killed my sister.
What are you so afraid of?
What?
What do you want to hide that you had to kill someone?
It was you who killed...
my sister...
Daebeom.
What are you talking about?
- No... - How could you have...
How could you have done that to my family?
No, it wasn't me!
Did you think we'd never know?
Did you think we'd never know and you'd never be guilty?
No.
No, I said it wasn't me!
Your son killing Seona?
Did you kill Myeongsuk to hide that?
That's extremely unfair.
What about this?
Think about what it means.
You'd know what Guenho wrote better than me.
- Shut your trap... - You're done.
This won't just be doodling to experts!
Don't blackmail me with the stupid scribbling!
What about the security camera?
I bet Mucheol thought he won't be seen at the top.
I bet he didn't realize he was reflected in Guenho's window!
Geunho, come on.
Hey.
Move it.
It's true.
Mucheol killed Myeongsuk to hide the fact that he killed Seona!
Bullshit! What do you know?
Everyone will know that...
Your son's a murderer!
You're wrong.
I think you had the wrong idea.
Myeongsuk was killed...
not by my son,
but by me.
Fuck, I didn't mean to kill her.
But you should've been there.
You should've been there!
Taxi!
- Go now, please! - Where to?
To Myeongju Police Station.
- Hey, stop! - Please go faster!
Hey!
I'm heading there.
I have the evidence for the murder.
What?
- Sir, don't stop. Just go. - Three, eight, six, six.
Stop the car.
- But it's the police. - Just go, please.
- Stop! - Please trust me once.
- I'm going to the police. - Stop the car!
Sir!
Sir, please...
Get off!
- Please trust me! - Get off!
Open up. Now!
Get off!
Hey!
He can't boss citizens around.
Miss, hang tight.
Thank you.
No!
I said it's not me! No!
Geunho watched Daebeom's video and started talking.
Seona! Run! It hurts!
Geunho, one breath.
Two breaths.
He started talking.
Myeongsuk was killed not by my son, but by me.
- So it's Mr. Kwak saying this. - Yes.
He's the dad of Constable Kwak of Angok Police Station.
A recording of irrelevant party may not be legally valid.
You may even be punished.
I'm the victim here!
That woman tricked me.
- They framed us. - You.
You'll see!
- Got it? - Go.
Who killed Myeongsuk?
Who killed Seona?
As we expected,
Doohee and Mucheol were the culprits of the incidents.
The culprits Geunho named for a long time.
How did you get Doohee to confess?
I don't know.
I wasn't myself, and words flew out of me.
I was only safe thanks to the stun gun you bought me.
I said it was Mucheol
on Geunho's window in the video, but it was a lie.
I don't know how I managed to say it.
Why didn't you fight back?
Well, I guess I wasn't myself back then, either.
Why do you think Geunho only wrote the bottom of the name?
If he had written everything, they would've been caught earlier.
Is my dad here?
He went fishing with my dad.
Did he?
I heard you're showing off, solving math problems for adults.
Stop being a show-off.
Give it back!
To think that my dad runs me down because of you...
You're an idiot.
What did you call me?
- If you're dumb, be nice! - You little shit!
Hey.
Show off on TV!
How dare you call me an idiot?
Hey, get up.
Hey!
Gyeoul, I'm sorry you had to wait.
I have to go somewhere tomorrow.
Would you like to stay here while I'm gone?
I won't be gone for a long time.
Okay, I'll stay.
We never what people are thinking.
But Doohee basically shit all over our building.
That's what I'm saying. What a scary world.
Mucheol became a police officer after doing such an evil deed.
- Gosh. - Changsu's family had it hard.
Look after them for me.
I bet you're a little guilty.
Just so you know, I'm selling the building to them.
What?
Is Changsu buying the building?
I offered half price. How can he not?
Goodness, dad...
You're awesome. What a great idea.
- I thank you on behalf. - You idiot.
Why would you thank me?
I can't believe how stupid you are.
Hi.
Welcome. It's been hard, right?
I'm fine.
Forget all about it, and cheer up.
Thank you.
Welcome. Have a seat. What brought you here?
Well...
About the furniture you gave me...
You should take them back.
I see. Are you moving out?
Yes.
Changsu's buying the building.
- Really? That's good. - It is.
You're probably sick and tired of this town.
I'm sure you want to leave as soon as possible.
But I'm a bit sad.
Me, too.
I'm sure Bom is sadder than me, though.
Actually, about Jeonghun...
Bom's dad caused trouble again. She's probably struggling.
Did something happen at Bom's home again?
Hey.
- Bring this to the third floor. - Yes, sir.
Where are the structural supports?
They were here.
It's like working with amateurs.
Hey, Kim! What are you doing?
- Sorry? - Why are you freaking up there?
- You told me to bring this here. - I did?
That fucking retard.
Why would you bring that there? We need it here!
Bring it back here now!
Yes, sir. Sorry!
Look at you working here at your age.
It's breaking my heart.
Hey, scoop rice when dad's here. It'll get cold.
Yeah, you're right.
The rice's well done, though.
Help yourself.
Stay seated.
Enjoy.
I thought you wouldn't come.
I'll pour you one, sir.
Forget what happened.
I'm not convinced when I see you work.
But you can come back next month.
Don't be shy. Take a shot.
Our foreman's extremely generous with you.
Don't drink if you don't want to.
I'll pour you one.
You're not bad. Take another.
Come on.
Bom, I think dad was home.
Bom!
Bom.
Jeonghun started gambling again.
He left with gamblers with all the money.
Bom.
Haneul!
Bom.
Haneul.
Yeoreum.
Where have you been?
I started working.
What about school?
What brought you here? Where's Bom?
Bom?
She went out to see you yesterday.
- You didn't see her? - See me?
She didn't call me.
When did she leave?
Yesterday morning.
Haneul, file a missing report at the police station.
Also, go to places Bom might be in.
Gosh...
I'll have a look, too.
Let's go.
Come on.
Bom, take care.
I'm...
Dad.
Myeongsuk.
Help Bom to stay positive. Help me find her.
Please.
I was wrong.
I'm sorry.
Bom!
Wake up.
Bom, wake up.
Come back.
Are you okay?
Yeoreum...
It's okay.
I'm sorry...
It's so okay.
It's all okay now.
It's okay.
Daebeom had the same face as Bom.
It must have been the darkness deep within.
I decided to stay in Angok.
And I decided to work.
I work four hours and a half. I get paid 50 dollars.
I work six days a week.
I start work at 4:00 a.m.
Goodness me!
At first, waking up early was overwhelming.
But it's the best part now.
Have plums.
Thank you.
As for early mornings, ones after a day is depressing,
but ones that start a day is refreshing.
They're so different that it's hard to believe they're both mornings.
It's 8:30 a.m. after work.
I get to spend the rest of the day for myself.
I work less but earn time.
I'm renting a room at Bom's home.
After paying 300 dollars a month as the rent
and buying necessities, I still have money left.
So I save little by little.
After Bom and Haneul go to school,
I go to the library every day.
You have to upload it every day before you clock out.
Checkouts, returns, and usages.
I kept telling you to process them instantly.
You know what? That young lady's our only visitor.
Staff: What's the point of doing that?
You're a whiny civil servant.
How did I get stuck here?
Miss.
Where's the real estate agency here?
I'm not "Miss".
I'm hooked on transcribing. I'm copying my favorite book.
I emptied my mind but feels my soul.
After the library closes, we jog together.
Daebeom swapped to jogging in the evening for me.
We usually chat while jogging.
Our days are typical, but we have endless things to chat about.
I really feel Daebeom talks more than me now.
- It's not as hard. - I bet you jog better than me.
I might be.
Okay, so now that you reviewed it, what do you think?
I read this and...
this was very interesting that you sent to me.
But...
Daebeom started working again with Professor Holland.
Is it okay if I calculate it again?
Why is that?
Professor said he puts family before work.
So he offered to work as if they play.
This impressed and led Daebeom to work with Professor Holland.
No, I mean...
From professor,
Daebeom seems to be learning how to work from scratch.
Well, I don't think it was difficult at all. Actually...
I have a problem that is much more difficult to solve.
Like what?
My wife!
- Yeoreum... - Yes.
I have something I want to do with you.
What is it?
But can you promise me first that you'll do it with me?
I don't think I can do this on my own.
What is it?
Don't fall for her trap.
It's...
This.
What's this?
Hong's.com Webtoon contest
- A webtoon contest? - Yeah.
And this is the best part.
The winner gets 100,000 dollars. Isn't it awesome?
Why do you want to do this with me?
Look, I can draw but can't write.
But you worked in a publishing house. You read a lot, too.
- You can write, and I can draw... - I can't!
You know how much writing scares me.
Yeoreum, please.
You wrote the interview article for Daebeom.
That's completely different from this.
Ignore her. She's just in the Lala Land.
You idiot. What do you know?
I'll do the dishes.
Yeoreum, please. Let's give it a shot. Just this once.
No, I can't. Just eat your dinner.
Please, do it with me!
You're acting strange. Why do you eat here?
Also, tell me if you're coming.
- I'd bring better food. - I'm happy with this.
I got a place in Seoul. All I need to do is move now.
- Are you here to ask for help? - With what?
Come on now.
I got my truck ready and even boxes. Don't worry.
I didn't even think to ask for help.
Don't stick your finger in it.
Sorry.
You're smarter than your dad.
- You're here for dinner. - Hi.
Oksoon.
- Hey... - Do you need help?
It's not that.
I was wondering if I can get Yeoreum's number.
Yeoreum's number?
It's good that you're here.
I have a message for Daebeom.
What's is it?
I haven't properly thanked them yet.
I was thinking about treating them to dinner at my restaurant.
- Really? - That's a great idea.
If that's the case,
can you make it a big party?
How big?
- Beef. - We want beef.
- Yes! - We want beef!
- Jun, come for beef.
Yes!
- Good, call me. - Take care.
Let's take Haneul, too.
Haneul? Why? Just let him study.
- Why not? - What?
He didn't even go to the valley. He'll want to stay in to study.
I almost forgot.
- Bom. - Yes.
I'm just curious. Do you not keep in touch with Jaehun?
I mean...
I was shocked when I read his message.
Yeoreum, I'm going to the US. Look after Bom.
I don't know what happened between you two.
But Jaehun really likes you.
You know that, right?
Don't talk about him.
Okay.
Yeoreum.
I hope we won and get 100,000 dollars, right?
What do you want to do with it?
I miss grandma.
If I write and Bom draws,
- we'll never win. - Come on.
I suck at writing. You know that.
I don't know about that.
Come on.
Gift
To be honest,
I'm really similar to you.
In what way?
I get super nervous when I solve math problems.
But one day, after getting a question wrong.
Professor Holland said, "Oh my god," without a care.
Really?
You know...
I love chatting with you about our days.
So I decided to write.
I can't think of anything.
It's so hard.
I'll develop a fear of blank paper at this rate.
But it was still hard.
Gyeoul, I'm in big trouble.
What?
I should just do it because I suck anyway?
You're right.
How did you know I suck?
You're right.
I'll go to Hollywood at this rate.
I'm not going anywhere.
Bom, I'm sorry!
I'd like to pay for this.
I'm not a genius.
I should start, humbly admitting it.
I'm a typical person.
No, I might even be slightly behind.
Anyway, I should write every day.
There's not much I can do other than that.
Hey, you scared me!
- What? - When did you come home?
You acted all weak when you can write so well.
Did you read it? You didn't, right?
Isn't the woman too old?
I can't draw a woman who has children.
This is just something I wrote to test my writing.
- This isn't... - Let me read it.
- No! Someone's here. - Come on.
Who could that be?
Who is it?
Hey!
Jaehun!
- Jaehun... - Bom. Yeoreum.
How are you?
Didn't you go to the US?
I did, but...
- I kept thinking... - Then...
- Did you come back here? - Yes, I did.
While I was away,
I kept thinking about myself.
- I kept... - Are you crazy?
You can't treat the US like your living room.
Do you know how much is the flight?
Let me talk. Stop cutting me off.
Okay. Sorry.
I thought deep and hard about my life.
To know what I really want.
To know what I have to live for.
At the end of thinking, I came here.
You did? Why did you come here?
- To marry you. - What?
Marry me? Are you crazy?
Bom, so be honest with me.
Should I go back to the US?
Hey...
Hey, we're too young to get married.
I'm being serious.
Stop deflecting and tell me.
Are you not happy that I'm here?
I'm happy, but...
We should properly date one another
before we get married...
You think?
Then should we do that?
I wasn't asking you to marry me now.
I can't believe you fooled me!
Jaehun.
Good to see you.
Yeoreum.
- Welcome. - Thanks.
I missed you.
Yes. Me, too.
I'm home.
Who is that?
Hello. I'm your brother-in-law.
What do you mean? Don't say that!
My brother.
You better stop.
Is it good?
- It's wild. - Of course, it's wild.
Daebeom!
- We're here. - Yeoreum!
- Come! - Hurry! Sit.
- You must be starving. - Thank you.
Jun, come and sit.
Right, Jun.
- Geunho's going to school. - Awesome.
He's finally in school!
- I'm so happy. - We spent big bucks
to buy beef with killer marbling. Enjoy!
- Yeoreum, Daebeom. - Yes.
I can't thank you two enough.
- Don't mention it. - Don't say that.
- Please help yourself. - Thank you.
Thank you for dinner.
- Thank you! - Seongmin!
What?
Isn't this party thrown for Yeoreum and Daebeom?
What's that?
Congratulations, Ms. Jo for going to Seoul
Come on.
It's nice to share a good occasion. Let's read it.
Congratulations!
Ms. Jo for going to Seoul.
Please leave Angok!
- What's wrong with him? - What's wrong with him?
Jun, help yourself!
Okay! Thank you for the food!
- Should we dig in? - Thank you.
Enjoy.
It's so good.
Before it's too cold.
- Help yourself. - Okay.
I thought about what happiness is.
I looked it up in the dictionary,
and it says "it's feeling content by enough satisfaction and joy,"
"or it's a state of being".
But it's too long for me, so I summarized it.
"Happiness."
"It's feeling good enough".
I thought about today.
I rode my bike through the chilly morning.
I rode to my heart's content before the sun rose.
I was proud of myself.
It's good enough for me.
I came home thirsty, so I drank water.
It reminded me of Myeongsuk who said water's the best thing.
She was right. It's good enough for me.
I love the sound of laundry when I flap it.
Also,
I love the smell of soap on my hand.
It's good enough for me.
The sunlight in the afternoon at the library is like a drug.
I snoozed for a second.
The nap was a treat. It's good enough for me.
Standing at the bookshelf and trying to pick a book is always a joy.
I get giddy.
Noble Truth
It's good enough.
When I go to bed with Bom,
I always crack up until my stomach hurts.
We sometimes crack up, just by looking into each other's eyes.
It's good enough.
Bom!
It's okay.
Bom told me.
When I told her it's okay,
she surprisingly felt it'll be all okay.
I felt the same way.
After saying it's okay,
I felt like it'd really be okay.
Feel the breeze.
Yeoreum, it's fall now. Right?
It is.
- Can I tell you something cool? - What?
Bom.
Yeoreum.
- Gaeul! - Gaeul!
- Gyeoul! - Gyeoul!
We have all four seasons.
Bye.
My first summer in Angok.
It feels so weird.
Aren't you upset about me leaving?
Jiyeong.
Waiting for you is my hobby and special forte.
Until I meet another man.
Go ahead if you want to.
You live to run people down.
Where will you meet a man like me who is perfect to nag?
I nag because you deserve it. I wouldn't nag others.
No one makes me mad like you do.
Or come back with a history like I did.
I'm fine with that, too.
From what?
Are you out of your mind?
- Hey... - You crazy...
- You'll wake Jun. - Don't say that when Jun's around.
Take it back!
- He's up! - He's up because of you!
What's your plan on your day off this week?
Why? Do you want to go eat somewhere?
No. I want to go and see Daeho.
What? Daeho?
You told me to be friends.
You matured up, didn't you?
Hold.
- What was that? - What?
I wanted to play hard to get.
That was so satisfying.
Don't play hard to get! How dare you?
- It's so much fun! - Come here!
- Gyeoul, bite him! - Give Gyeoul back!
- Come! Gyeoul, bite him! - Get it!
Bite his foot!
Gyeoul, look!
- Daebeom? - Yes.
Don't you regret staying?
I don't.
What about you?
Me, neither.
It's seriously...
good enough for me.
I still don't know how I should live my life.
But this is good enough for me.
Let's do this.
Summer Break
