Episode 13
So should I cry?
The time we broke up?.
Am I supposed to cry about that?
Although it might sound strange, but did you care as little as that?
I was the one who got dumped so why are you mad?
I'm not angry...
Did you like me?
What are you so unhappy about?
Saying you wanted to go out with me and then setting up an impassable wall.
Have I set up a wall?
Doesn't dating and liking mean getting close and
becoming an important person to each other?
You hate that. The feeling of developing our relationship.
If we are starting to make progress, you'll use that and make us back away.
I want my girlfriend to look at me with more special eyes
Just how I look at you.
I do focus on you. Why do you keep saying that I don't?
So can you tell me you love me?
Have you ever said it?
I get it.
You chose to break up so I'll respect your decision.
What the hell have I
been doing with you that whole time?
Are you sure that you don't want to go with me?
Your heart sounded like it was on a roller coaster.
Are you sure you won't pass out?
Whether he is bragging or not, why did I ever played a true-false game?
Did you stay overnight here because of the rescued patient?
I don't know. I must have gone crazy.
Why is she like this?
What is it? That cringey look?
Breathalyzer Record Kang San Hyeok None
Good morning, Subaenims.
Hyung, is your shoulder okay?
What? I told you to take a break. Why are you at work?
Now that I'm eligible for award, how can I take a break for my shoulder?
An award citation?
I saved a colleague's life in the spirit of a saint
sacrificing himself but I shouldn't be given one?
Well then, it should be given to me as someone who is on probation.
Saving one's life, my foot.
How is it saving someone’s life when some materials just fell from the ceiling?
You're bragging too much.
After being injured and hospitalized, you disappeared without a word.
Why did you leave?
Something urgent happened.
You've lost your position as the ace rescuer to me.
Do you think the rescue team is some kind of neighborhood foot volleyball team?
Aomeone on probation rashly mentions the ace?
Aigoo, it's time to take a med.
Our Yeong Jae, prescribed me these with love,
wishing a speedy recovery.
Do what you wanna do.
As I'm enjoying several victories,
I can take it to some extent.
Victory? What kind of victory?
I have some kind of victory.
What is that satisfyingly bragging look?
What is it? It's suspicious.
- Member Yang? I didn't see him.
He must have forgotten. Take him to me.
Cheol Sik admires this lecturer the most.
Member Yang!
Yang Sunbae?
Crew member Yang, the guest lecture is about to begin.
Yang Sunbae?
I don’t think he heard you.
Oh, sorry.
I’m just so used to checking that my colleagues got the information they need,
I was meddling.
I don’t know who you are, but this isn’t a rescue.
I’ve told him multiple times, it’s his responsibility now.
Making others remind you about the lecture, it’s an inconvenience.
Team Leader Jung?
You are Team Leader Jung, right?
I have heard a lot about you. It is an honor to meet you, Team Leader.
An honor? What??
Let’s go to the lecture hall, I’ll take you there.
Please go this way.
- Yes, I’ll escort you. - Is it this way?
Yes, sir.
Team Leader Jung?
He is someone who turned down a promotion and comfortable office position,
to volunteer to work in Mountain Rescue and be in the field for over 20 years.
Please welcome, Team Leader Jeong Byeong Yeong,
a living legend of Unam Rescue Squad 6
Nice to meet you all.
Th man we had to rescue was stuck between the rocks, so we were unable to see him.
In cases like this, it’s very important to check
how much battery is left in the cell phone,
of the person you’re rescuing.
In his case, he had about 4% left.
So I asked this person to turn off the phone.
Then after getting him to send a few texts,
I carefully approached him.
The mountain rescue squad does everything on foot without using helicopters.
It is so difficult and dangerous that everyone avoids working there long-term.
Is there a reason you volunteered to work there for over 20 years?
What made that possible? I really want to know.
Well....
I just liked this job.
About 20 years ago...
I responded to a scene where a family attempted suicide together.
When we got there, the parents were already completely submerged and suffocated.
There was also a little girl, who wasn’t moving either.
When I pulled her out of the car and held her...
I could feel her heart beating.
However,.
I knew that it would stop before I could get her out of the water.
So I quickly took my oxygen mask off, put it on her, and
then swam and got her out of the water.
And from my heart, I said this to the child...
Thank you.
Thanks for surviving.
You are such a great child to overcome this.
Please hold on more.
And then surprisingly, she opened her eyes and starred at me.
Just like she heard my mind.
How grateful it was...
Her eyes starring at me...
Little hands holding me tightly...
I still remember that feeling.
I think that's the reason
why I couldn't leave this field.
It is about his adapted daughter's story in his essay.
What’s the matter?
Look at that!
Do you know what it is?
You like it, don't you?
Wait, what is this? What’s this?
I found this!
Do you want this?
Ta-Da!
You’ll need to come back to remove the stitches.
- Does it hurt here? - Yes.
What about here?
This part hurts too, right?
“Family Relation Certificate (General)”
“ Miryeong Resident Services”
Kang San Hyeok
There is no record of transfers to the outside of Seoul.
Why do I have a memory about Miryeong Forest?
My parents whom I even don't remember at all have no presence.
There's just blank on the record.
Who am I supposed to ask?
What these things are...
How did I know they were inside of that tree?
Is this just a coincidence?
Everything is just coincidence, grandma?
"Kang San Hyeok"
What is this? We are not in a relationship where we can call each other.
I know you are embarrassed but come here quickly.
Embarrassed? Who is embarrassed? What is the matter?
I’ll say nothing happened, so just hurry back.
I have to shower!
This guy! Why do I need to hurry because you need to take a shower?
That’s ridiculous!
What are you thinking?
My boiler is broken but the repairman is going to come and fix it tomorrow.
Let me use your bathroom.
Just skip the shower until tomorrow.
Do you regard my house as a public sauna?
Or just use the bathroom as the door is not locked.
Public sauna?
I bet she couldn't expect me to come here!
Password?
Would it be the same as before?
Yes, the house should be like this for my princess.
It looks good.
Oh, dear.
What’s that?
I wanted to surprise her, but I’m too late.
She's already here.
My daughter’s clothes.
There.
Aren't you finished yet, Jeong Yeong Jae?
What is it?
You must be surprised! Come out!
Your dad is here!
D..dad??
Dad? No way...
Ta-Da! Our princess’ favorite seaweed chips...
Dad? Dad!
Let's eat!
You’re not criminals. Hurry and eat.
What’s wrong with living with together?
We're not living together!
We are just living in a connected house.
It’s really not like that.
It’s just that his furnace broke down.
So, it’s really nothing at all, and you still hid it from me?
Nice... Very nice...
I... I didn't intend to deceive you...
There was no need to talk about it.
Why are you hiding your mouth by the way?
Just like a person who kissed to someone.
Food is stuck in your throat, hurry and have some soup.
How cold it must’ve been, being naked like that.
Ye-Yes... Team Leader Jeong.
You know, I thought I was an open-minded person.
But today, I now know what it’s like to feel the urge to kill.
Where are you going? You have no sense of humor.
Sit back down.
If you run from the table, you’ll be hungry for the rest of your life.
Hurry and eat.
Alright, here. I dried and fried these myself.
It’s our Yeong Jae’s favorite. Here, try it.
Our Princess, here you go!
Hurry and eat. Have some fish as well.
Eat.
- It’s good. - Right?
So, how long have you been in the rescue squad?
A little over two months.
- Is it worth it? - Yes.
Hey. Don’t let her drink too much water.
She’ll pee a lot.
What?
She wet her bed until she was 13 years old.
Dad! Until I was 3.
Don’t lie.
I found her bed wet a few times until she was 13.
- How could a 13 year old... - I wasn’t 13!
Have a red pepper. It’s delicious.
Not peppers.
- Why? - I can’t eat spicy food.
- Dad, it’s spicy! - No, I...
- Is it? - What? - Don’t.
Have one.
Stop it.
Does it make sense that we aren't staying the night after coming all this way?
I told you I have a morning shift.
Team Leader Kim also came to see his mother.
It's already been decided that I'll be taking that car.
Look. There it is.
Hurry and go back in.
Team Leader.
I had a great time. Please take care of yourself.
Take care okay?
It would have been so much better if you just stayed the night.
In any case, the rescue team is all you care about.
What did I say was the most important thing when living this life?
Never back down?
Well the way I see it, it applies to relationships as well.
There is only something to gain if you go all
the way without backing down from the war.
As long as you're not taking the other's happiness, what is there to be afraid of?
What are you talking about all of a sudden?
Just, I'm just saying that I believe in you.
Do you know how exceptional you are? Knowing that you take after me?
I am going.
Dad.
Call me often!
What was I doing all that time with you?
Consultants opposing removal of Miryeong 119 SRS
Here, too, they didn't answer.
Something is really fishy.
All the consultants and city council members who
opposed moving the special rescue squad 119,
are all avoiding our calls.
Like they’re colluding.
Then we’ll go catch them.
What? Where are you going?
Shouldn’t we hunt? The slimy evaders.
He left Naseong Development and went to work.
Yes, sir. I understand.
As you instructed, I put two fast guys on their tail.
Don’t lose them.
Do it right, and catch a rat.
1, 2
3, 4
Do it faster!
At this speed, when will you finish connecting it and spray the water?
8, 9, 10.
Again!
What? We did it within the time given?
The front part of this control head...
It should be facing up when connected.
Didn’t you learn this in firefighting school?
You don't like this feeling, huh? Again!

He didn't even tell me when he was going to start.

The golden time is going.
The very beginner is going to burn down the house.
Taesung
What is this? Isn't this Taesung Group?
Taesung group?
You come.
No... I just wanted to look around here.
That's it.
Stop, stop, stop!
Why is your leg like this?
I have my knees swollen.
You're limping.
What? All the villagers are coming?
I don't want to get his treatment.
You condescending jerk. I’ll rip your face off!
Oh, wait. Calm down.
-Your leg! Let's start by going in.
You should walk slowly....
I’ll rip his face off!
Did I beg her to get treatments from me?
She said that!?
Until your knee got this swollen, you didn't come to the hospital?
What have you been doing?
I didn't wanted to come here because of that guy outside.
That man is a total disgrace.
As he isn't kind to the elderly, no one wants to come here.
But I thought that you are not like him,
When I saw you're being kind to Jungbae's father.
You did well in coming.
Let's talk about it after taking an X-ray.
It just seems like a recurrence of your arthritis.
So don’t worry too much.
There you go.
Is your hand also being abnormal? Is it shaking?
It's been like that.
I must be because I drink a lot of coffee.
Is that so?
Yes, this is Miryeong Hospital. I am Doctor Jeong Yeongjae.
It's Gangwon Hospital.
The previous blood test results showed the presence of leucocytosis and blast cells.
The elder man whom we had a smear screening test done on, Heo Choon Shik?
Yes.
The results are out. It looks like acute leukemia, for sure.
Leukemia: acute blook disease
Acute leukemia?
Ma’am, is Mr. Heo at home right now?
Jungbae's father?
He is heading to his family house.
'Family house'? What is that?
Dr. Park should have come with us!
How can I drive on this road when I hardly drive?
You do have the life insurance, right?
Don't you talk to me. Just look ahead.
I think it’s this way.
We didn’t used to live here, but across the mountain.
But our whole town burned downed due to a fire, so we moved here.
Mr. Heo!
It wasn’t just Jeong Bae’s father, but almost everyone used to live there.
Mr. Heo! Mr. Heo!
- How do you think he would have felt, - Sir, do you hear me?
After seing his parents grave burn to dust like that?
Sir!
Mr. Heo Choon Shik!
Grandfather!
Grandfather, can you hear me?
Can you open your eyes?
We have got to give him a transfusion, right away. It's petechia.
We should go directly to the hospital.
Don't be surprised, Grandfather.
You are okay.
I am here.
You are okay.
Slowly, go slowly.
Be careful.
Watch your step.
Yes, this way.
“2nd floor under repair”
His name is Cho Yong Pil. He’s a new director
Taesong Group brought in for the resort project.
He's known to have belonged to organized crime and
when he gets involved in a business that seems utterly impossible,
things proceed flawlessly, so he's become quite infamous in the industry.
Anyone who stood in the way of his projects ended up dead, disguised as suicide.
No wonder.
I thought he seemed quite a large scale of a character to be used as Chief Han.
They even took the professor away from the restaurant last time.
I mean, we took Naseong Development from them awhile ago.
Why is Taeseong Group giving us all this trouble now?
A corporation like that would try to bargain the cost down to the penny.
Have you ever seen those people pay more than the market price?
They looked down on Chief Han.
He's not the one to lead the project properly.
So they probably thought Naseong Development
would give it up at a lower cost.
But in the midst of that, I jumped in and brought it thus far.
So, Taesung is in a rush.
Seeing how they've hired a gangster like him,
I don't think Taesung would give up on Miryeong Forest but go all in.
What should we do? Looks like it'll be a headache.
We should hurry up and get out.
Before those people do anything funky.
Starting today, operate headquarters 1 to full capacity.
We'll put everyone in and speed up the Miryeong
Forest business process as much as possible.
Yes, sir.
"In a little bit, episode 14 will be airing."
I saw that.
Good morning.
Oh, you came.
Episode 14>
Team Leader.
When on earth will I receive my official passcard?
You came?
- You came? - Why...?
You look handsome.
You came!
What is up with you all?
Did you all go for drinks in the morning, or what?
Oh my, what is that? What?
On the desk!
It looks a little familiar...
what's this again?
Congratulations, Hyung.
Ah, it finally feels like he is a member.
Team Leader, don't you think it is too early to give him a card?
How do you want to me to bear that guy asking all nice for any longer?
I am not giving it to him.
The Captain is rewarding it to him for saving two people.
Lies. He told me to make it.
He's coming up with excuses now.
Ahem...
e gotta go clean up...
Don't interfere.
Don't be annoying.
Don't act like Kang San Hyeok.
Let's see if you're capable of that.
I, too, still have a long way to go.
Either way, thank you, Team Leader.
This is a serious waste of my abilities,
but I shall gladly devote my body for the Miryeong Forest.
Not rescue team but Miryeong Forest?
Sir, I am going to the work you ordered right now?
Yes. 47.
What? 47?
No, we have to do it properly.
We have to finish this properly.
47....
Died during transport
Died during transport.
This, too. Death.
Death...
Golden time?
Yes.
I thought the rescue team's location was a bit strange.
The other rescue team has jurisdiction over the
central part so they are able to stay within the golden time.
Here. Even though the Miryeong Rescue team is in Miryeong and it is close.
The west side of the mountain is faster for the South-West rescue team.
Well, that is why we are sharing mobilization with the
Southwest rescue team depending on the circumstances.
Even though, we go must of the time.
In the case of a serious injury, the Southwest team will go.
When you say now, does that mean that Miryeong used to go in the past?
If we were to pass that time,
Would there be a death?
Yeah.
At the start of this place's construction,
They often died during the rescue or transportation.
Hey.
This is information which isn't much brought up internally,
but this place's location is a little... iffy.
Not only the distance,
but there's a fatal flaw to us air rescue paramedics, who have to move by helicopter.
Gust zone!
A gust zone?
The Miryeong Mountain is topographically prone to gust fronts.
Our rescue party is right at the center.
Don't get me started. Ever since I've come here, it's been gust and fog day after day.
We often have to put our lives at risk to go rescue!
Why do you think helicopter captains comes first on the least wanted jobs list.
Why do you think they would have chosen to build the rescue party here of all places,
when there's such a problem?
Who know? Well...
Maybe because of the forest fires?
There's no rescue party in the Miryeong district.
The residents didn't stop complaining about how
we couldn't stop the village from burning down.
Yes.
Hey, don't ever talk about wildfires in front of Team Leader.
Yes.
Yeah, I will be going that way.
Forest fires and gusts...
Your father is the owner of the Miryeong Forest, is that right?
We don't know when something will ever happen to your mother.
Wouldn't it be safer to get her to be a city with a large hospital?
"Real Estate Contract"
We can move them to the memorial park.
Should you really leave this land with great value unused,.
Just because it's your family gravesite?
How much does it cost to care for a child!
Isn't that right?
- That's right! - That's right.
What was the result?
I've convinced all parents at Miryeong, and they say they will sell it.
Director, you really.
I simply told them that they should take care of the kids, instead of the elderly.
And that was it.
If we add the villagers that already agreed on selling it, I think that should do it.
There is only one person left.
Choi Jeong Mok!
That land is connected to a road.
If we can't go there,
we've got too much congestion charging to consider.
Get Choi Jeong Mok's land. No matter what.
I understand.
What are you doing here?
Are you in charge of the catchment too, Ms. Oh?
If there's every a fire at the Miryeong forest,
this is where the helicopter would get the water from.
Of course I've got to take care of it.
I'm guessing you're here to inspect the catching.
Yes.
Give it to me.
I'll do it.
Do I have a thing with this guy?"
At that moment, it could have been a mistake.
He took my tools, saying he would give me a hand.
But he laid his hand was only 3cm away from mine!
Congrats! on getting out of the Forever Single Club!
3cm for sure!
It's a fling! Hahahaha
I have given it much thought.
I am in trouble.
What?
Last time I was fishing,
You grasped my waist, when my arm was available.
And earlier too, you could have place the notebook
on a rock, on the grass, or laid it on the sand.
But you handed it to me.
I know the meaning of that, I understand but
I can't.
I've got to separate my private life from my professional one.
Wow!
I guess he must be really hurt.
Naturally, he would be hurt.
He is a pain in the neck.
Yeah, yeah, Please keep smiling that way,
So we can comfortably see each other.
In public.
Then, how does it seem if you separate your private life and professional one?
Can I hand my notebook to you, privately?
What?
His flirting skills are on another level.
I should be careful.
Our Naseong Development is planning on building a training institution.
We'll get you a better price than the market value, Sir.
Why don't you hand the mountain and factory over to us.
Oh my, is that so?
You're quite young, to be in charge of such big business.
But you're not a major company,
why are you building such a large training center?
Naseong Development's already got more than enough land,
to build a couple of training centers. But that ain't enough for you?
What? Are you coming after me after you bought all that land?
But since I feel bad, there's a song.
I have one weakness.
Greed for money.
I don't know if people are willing to sell their land for money
Not in my case.
My grandfather's burial and my parents' burial.
They're all lying down here in Miryeong.
How could I sell that for money?
This is all Miryeong.
This Miryeong forest.
Do you know how much I have protected for this?
Every day, I have shed so much blood.
How could I exchange it for money?
If you were to give me the money, how much would that be?
Several hundred billions?
How much billions (of won)?
Just leave.
As for my land, no matter how much fortune you give me
you can't have it.
Well, that's it.
You'll have to go through my land to connect to the big street.
That amazing value.
How would you calculate such value with money?
It sounds like there's an amount you desire,
so if you negotiate with us in detail...
You don't get me at all. I'm saying that's not it.
Merchants can smell other merchants.
If you're a businessman of such a huge scale,
there has to be a strong smell.
The blood and sweat you've shed all this time.
But since you came to me, it seems that the smell of blood is rather weak?
For sure. It seems you are following the orders of another person.
Please go.
What is the problem?
What are you doing blocking that street?
Oh, is that so?
I mean, I almost fell because the wheel was loose.
I will take care of it.
The hub is loose.
You are strong self-sustainable man, huh?
You look like you'd order people around not lifting your finger.
Do you think I could've come up to this position without lifting a finger?
In anything you do, you have to know how to do
things well if you want to order others around.
Do you know that the majority of corporate CEOS who frequent
the Psychiatrist office happen to be perfectionists?
Thanks to their perfectionism, they were able to climb up the ladder,
but they're only happy when they do everything themselves.
So, they're suffering from high stress from overworking.
"It's okay if I do less..."
I've seen a case where someone who said that
to himself every morning got better very quickly.
I guess that person must've had someone
to fall back on even if he didn't get to do things himself.
I...
I what?
Pass me the wrench.
I what??
I have seen the complete opposite case.
I have an orphan friend.
He was abandoned by his parents as a child
and said this to himself every morning looking at the mirror.
"I'm my protector."
I can only save myself.
Do you know how much that friend has been able to succeed now?
A protector, a rescuer...
He can do less?
Of course. I'm sure you speak of
fairytale-like stories since you don't know.
The psychology of a person who has to endure
without anyone to depend on in this world...
How could Jeong Yeong Jae know–
It's about the adopted daughter from the forest.
I guess you know.
Since you studied psychology for a short time.
Why are you riding the bicycle everywhere when you can't even fix something so minor?
- It's all about looking cool, huh? - In any case...
You always cut down the other person.
I ride it because I can't drive in this narrow and rough road.
At first.
That's why I started riding the bike.
But.
On the road that felt like I was going on exile...
What I saw.
See? What
I won't tell you.
It's kind of like not wanting others to know about a truly great restaurant.
That's it. It's perfect now.
Gosh, you're such a high maintenance woman.
WOW!
I'll fix the rest of the bike and bring it back.
Is that so?
Then I will do in and do my work.
The location is a freeway rest area in the truck parking lot.
It's a blind spot for the CCTVs, so there won't be any evidence.
Politicians are sensitive about bribery.
When you meet him, take the black box and exchange it.
It's a sign of trust symbolizing that you're not secretly recording them.
I delivered it to the partner.
Representation Kim
- Let's have a drink. - Yes, sir.
I have arrived, partner.
Sit.
Assemblyman Kim received scholarships from Taeseong,
so he’ll definitely join hands with Director Cho.
We’ll change our partner.
It’ll be more expensive, but he’ll be more helpful.
He has a bad relationship with Taeseong. They’re enemies.
I’m honored to work with you, Governor.
Nice to meet you.
Even if I release the provincial forests, if you can’t move the special rescue squad,
the development is impossible.
You don't have to worry about that problem.
I’ve found problems that will justify a relocation.
I only need your permission for the development.
I am sure I will be able to transfer the Special Rescue Team.
What is that?
Backward! Go back!
Bastards.
How did it go?
After meeting Representative Kim, he directly went to meet someone nearby.
The pictures our staff took, I sent them to you right now.
Why is he meeting with Mr. Bong?
Don't talk about wildfires in front of Team Leader.
I can deal with the other areas, but the special rescue squad is a problem.
Memories of the Miryeong forest fire will
cause a lot of opposition from the residents.
You must bring me a complete plan to move the base.
Miryeong forest fire?
Whatever it is, I am sure.
Even though he has a temper.
I mean, why is this in Kang Sanhyeok's belongings?
Why is there a stone wall here?
Is this where the old Miryeong village was?
Jeong Soon Ae
Kang San Hyeok!
Choi Jeong Mok.
Someone’s trying to buy Mount Miryeong, to build a resort.
It's been a while since we have met.
About 20 years.
Kang San Hyeok!
I have some emergency pain relief medicine. I’ll give you an injection.
It will be fine in a bit.
Don't do it.
Don't give me a shot. I will endure it.
I’ll find out what’s causing this without falling asleep.
I have to do it.
Even if it’s phantom pain, it will be the same as the real thing!
You’ll feel like your arm is actually burning right now, Kang San Hyeok!
This is right. No one should go through this.
Don't do it.
I can endure it. I must endure it.
The boy who was abandoned by his parents when he was young,
looked into the mirror every morning and said...
“I am my own guardian.
Only I can save myself.”
How would you know what goes on in the mind of
someone who is alone and has no one else to lean on-
You are wrong, Kang San Hyeok.
Why are you alone under the sky?
You know I am here.
Kang San Hyeok, whenever you are sick and come running, I am here, you know?
I am the girl next door who cannot let you suffer alone.
So, don't get hurt.
Don't endure it.
♬ Without a word of sweet comfort ♬
♬ Just scatter ♬
♬ and disappear. ♬
♬ My feelings, my loneliness, my silence ♬
Don't choose to suffer, Kang San Hyeok.
Please.
Jeong Soon Ae
♬ Please take me now ♬
♬ Towards the light which shines on me ♬
♬ Please take me ♬
♬ Please take me now ♬
♬ The hope that is felt ♬

I started wanting to know everything there is about Kang San Hyeok.
You don’t have to remain here with the rescue squad.
I’ll start crossing your line now, Kang San Hyeok.
Let’s meet for personal reasons.

The Yeong Jae that is with me tonight, is it the doctor or the person?
Which one do you want her to be?
You must do something for me.
Where are you Yeong Jae?!
Jeong Yeong Jae!
