ALL CHARACTERS, ORGANIZATIONS,
EPISODE 6
If you hold a candle in front of
the bathroom mirror when the clock strikes midnight,
they say you'll see the face of your future husband.
And of course, I did it.
I was curious to see my future husband.
That night,
I saw two husbands
in the mirror.
I also saw something else.
My husband was stabbed with a knife.
He was attacked by my other husband.
Who could it possibly be?
Who survived? Who did I see?
Hey! Get out!
What is it?
There's a rat.
-A rat? -Yes.
And it's a white rat.
Is it white because this is a wedding dress shop?
-Get out of there! -Give me that.
It's a hamster that got out of its cage.
Don't waste your time on the critter.
Where in your shop are there no security cameras?
The backdoor.
The dress room and fitting room.
It's against the law to put cameras in the fitting room.
To get to the dress room, you have to pass through my office.
Who uses the backdoor?
It's next to the helper's workspace.
I use the door when I need to do a final check.
Couriers and delivery guys pass through it all the time.
Who frequents your office?
Most of the time, it's Doo-lae and Ms. Yoon.
-Anyone else? -No, hardly ever.
You would have to walk through the pattern room
or the dress room to get to my office.
The dress room can only be locked from the inside.
Only a few people are allowed in. Why do you ask?
It's nothing.
Where did it go?
Pil-ho, all that was for nothing, wasn't it?
I totally understand.
You worked so hard for Helmes.
What did you get out of it?
Zilch. I mean you were totally used.
What's left for you to do there?
You're not moving up the ladder...
Don't bring that up.
Pil-ho, I'm sorry to say this.
But I think your career is over there.
Somebody has to take the blame for a failed mission.
Guess who takes the blame in these cases?
It's the guy who worked the hardest on the assignment.
You think your sly boss will take the blame?
Hey, Pil-ho.
I can't figure you out sometimes.
Why don’t you ever suspect your boss?
What would we have gained from killing Sophie?
Not a lot, I suppose. But you could've protected something else.
Dr. Ahn was going to sell you out to the authorities.
Now, she can't talk anymore.
I don't work with people
who I can't trust.
Sure.
I'll take that as a yes to my offer then.
How can I trust you?
But you already believe everything I say.
That's why you came to me first.
Seo-ra, are you almost there?
The stalker is leaving.
Darn it. What is Doo-bong doing?
He needs to keep him there longer!
PLEASE CLOSE THE DOOR
DONGPOOMLOO
Why is he never on time?
He's always late.
Here he is.
Let's hurry up.
BLO AUDIO
What happened last night?
The stalker went to Doo-bong?
Yes.
Have you stood outside at the break of dawn?
What is this?
Why is he crying?
The stalker is a Helmes agent.
And Doo-bong is trying to recruit him to his side.
What is going on here?
Doo-bong has planted a guy inside Helmes?
He's back in the game.
Doo-bong has skills.
Doo-bong seems to know who the bosses are at Helmes
because the stalker is helping him.
If we're lucky, we can catch the whole bunch.
See? These guys are always betraying one another.
And our job is to catch these bad guys.
I need you all to be on top of your game.
The six-nation pact is in trouble of collapsing.
Did you talk to Dr. Ahn's fiance?
Why did he return?
He came back to pay his respects.
I learned that he's also a nuclear fusion expert in China.
He's a top scientist.
Dr. Ahn could have had access to Chinese secrets.
Including the data from her research days in Houston.
I don't know how Helmes was able to bring Dr. Ahn to their side,
but she was definitely working for them.
Okay.
-Did you find out who her investors were? -Yes.
Here's the list.
Sophie told me they were together when she was in Houston.
She said she got a lot of help from him.
He helped out with the investment for her company as well.
He seemed like he had a lot of connections because he worked for the UN.
I heard you met Ah-reum again.
I have nothing special to report.
Feeling all right?
She's feeling much better now.
I'm talking about you!
You have to be all right in order to protect your source properly.
Focus on the mission. I get points when you do your job well.
You're taking the morning off, right?
I was planning to take the whole day off,
but things came up.
Should I ask him?
I can't ask her point blank.
He'll think that I'm accusing him of being jealous.
Am I jealous?
-But still. -But still.
If I don't ask her...
What if she's lying to me?
What if I'm the only one who doesn't know?
What if he's lying to me?
-Did you meet him? -What?
Your ex-husband.
Just wondering if he called you again.
I lent him the money.
When?
Last night.
He came to the shop again.
Good call.
Now you won't have to see him again.
Don't worry about it.
-Would you like some grapes? -No thanks.
I'll have an apple.
Sophie told me they were together when she was in Houston.
She said she got a lot of help from him.
He helped out with the investment for her company as well.
He seemed like he had a lot of connections because he worked for the UN.
Honey.
You said there's no need to apologize for things you cannot change.
So can you be honest with me?
You don't have to apologize either.
Did you date Sophie?
TWO YEARS AGO
Sophie!
Thank you so much.
You're the same.
You were worse than me.
No, I wasn't.
That guy is staring at you.
The fit...
I put the pins there to change the fit.
But I forgot to take them out.
You're not a ninja, are you?
Could you kill someone with this pin?
You probably could.
Wait just one minute.
You could die from eating this.
I'll have this then.
I need you for a moment, Ah-reum.
Ah-reum.
Is he a friend of yours?
Yes. He's Derek.
Let me introduce you to someone else.
You're too good for him.
You can't just leave like that.
You have to return my apple first.
It was a total disaster. It took a lot of trial and error.
-Would you like to see the sewing room? -Sure.
That's hand embroidery.
My team is so talented.
Whenever the beads lady works on the beads,
it's fascinating to watch her.
And the men are tasked with cutting the patterns.
But I love cutting out patterns,
so I get in their way from time to time.
There's a special scissor that my mom used at her hanbok store.
It was heavy and had padding around the handles.
Whenever I saw her holding them,
I thought she looked so professional.
It's this moment when I get most excited and nervous.
You hold this scissor like a gun and cut the cloth swiftly.
You only get one chance to do it right.
With skill and experience...
Then take a long breath...
Would you like to try?
It's making me nervous.
You have to hold it firmly.
Don't hesitate.
Trust your instincts.
And focus.
In one go.
Swoosh.
I finally found something I'm not good at.
I'm glad that's the one thing I'm better at than you.
This car was manufactured in 1986.
The same year you were born.
It was exported to the US market in September the same year.
I went to my friend's house in Boston
and saw this car.
And I imported this for a special occasion.
You bought new car parts?
Yes.
Each part has its own little history.
Fixing it up is like creating a story.
As a car restorer,
knowing the car's secrets is what makes it worthwhile.
Could you open the trunk?
You didn't
put balloons in here, did you?
I had many clients today at work
and gasped and clapped whenever they tried on a dress.
I'm turning into a clapping seal.
Open it.
Okay.
Will you marry me?
What's wrong?
Some things should have been said.
But we've both been avoiding this topic.
Why didn't you ever ask me about my first marriage?
Because I didn't want
to make you feel vulnerable.
I'd never want
to see you feel apologetic
or embarrassed.
They say that
people repeat the same mistakes in their second marriage.
But
you don't believe that.
No matter what people say
I think I could do better.
I want to be better.
And I feel I have to.
I really, really want to make it work.
But I also know what failure is like.
There's also the satisfaction from turning things around.
It's like your whole world shifts.
I am afraid of failing a second time.
But everything in life has challenges.
That's why we work hard and pursue goals.
I really
want to get married again.
I know how hard it can be.
But still...
I want to shift my world again.
Let me help you.
I want to know how that feels.
Did you tell your mother about me?
She likes you.
What did you tell her?
I told her that I found a woman who could beat her.
What?
Look at this car.
It's wonderful
because it brings together different car parts
with their individual history and creates a whole new story.
Let's make our own story together.
Our story.
About our marriage.
Have you dated Sophie?
It's a rude question,
I guess.
It's a loaded question. It also implies that I think he lied.
Why do I want to ask him?
If he wants to hide that fact from me,
there must be a reason.
Just like how I don't talk about Ji-hun around him.
Even when you're close with someone,
you keep certain things to yourself.
Sometimes in a marriage, it's better to ignore the matter
than ask prying questions.
What were you going to tell me earlier?
We were approached about doing a pictorial.
Since I was a dress designer, they wanted me to wear my own dress.
But I didn't feel comfortable about you being exposed.
I'm fine with that.
-Really? -Yes.
If it'll help your business, you should do it.
I thought you would be against it.
I just have to stand and pose, right?
Like when we had our wedding shoot.
Right.
Thanks for the support.
You were modeling like a pro during our wedding shoot.
You blend in well in any situation.
It's a mystery how you do it.
Do you remember the apple
that you stuck with pins?
"Even if the world ends tomorrow, I will plant an apple tree."
I didn't fully understand that quote.
But I made a decision when I first met you.
Even if the world ends tomorrow,
I will plant an apple tree to meet you in my next life.
Oh, sheesh.
I know you're lying to me.
Hyun-joo, we have three client appointments today.
Check each one so that we don't run late.
Otherwise, the boss will get mad.
We have three walking sessions today.
Yes.
If Bibi Wedding Company cancels at the last minute,
don't book any future appointments with them.
Okay.
-Good morning. -Good morning.
-What's gotten into her? -I'm frightened.
-Good morning. -Good morning.
-Hello. -Oh, tea time?
Good morning.
Is there something to celebrate about?
Not really.
Derek agreed to it?
Why did he say yes?
Derek will do a fine job.
I'm sure he will. He's good at whatever he does.
You're the problem.
If any other bride acted like you on their wedding day,
you'd be fuming.
Get married yourself.
On your wedding day, nothing goes as you plan.
Even the pins holding your hair up fail miserably.
It's so hard to decide which dress to wear.
Because you know what to do to look perfect.
It's harder for someone like you to pick the best dress.
Like picking a guy.
What was I like at my own wedding?
You don't remember?
I only remember what dress I wore.
Your two weddings were so different.
Maybe because your grooms were complete opposites.
You look great.
My two weddings were not alike.
My first wedding was empty.
But my second one was full of guests.
At my first wedding, I cried a lot.
At my second one, I smiled a lot.
I only looked at my groom at the first wedding.
But when I married Derek, I focused on how I looked.
Mom, where's Ji-hun?
You're worried that he might have run away?
How could he hardly have any guests?
Even if his parents have passed.
Doesn't he have any friends?
It's not good to have lots of friends. You drink more.
And who is the guy wearing the white hanbok?
You're a college buddy.
Please act your role.
-Big smiles during the group photo, okay? -Okay.
-You can leave right after the buffet. -Okay.
You're a college buddy...
You're a teacher.
-Say that you were his teacher. -I'll do that.
Uncle.
-Who is going to be the uncle? -That'll be me.
You?
I'm sorry for putting you through this.
Compared to what's ahead of you, this is nothing.
Am I doing the right thing?
You are.
Wait. Does a groom wear a carnation?
Ah-reum gave it to me.
It's in memory of my parents.
They'll be proud.
Go check your bride. She's probably waiting.
Walk like a man. You're our top agent.
-Isn't this pretty? -Oh, yes.
Mother.
You look so elegant.
I'm not an old lady yet.
It's a bit early for that.
Let's go. I can't wait to grab a coffee at the airport after we're done.
But do you really want to walk down the aisle together?
Why don't I ask your uncle to walk you?
Uncle already had a lot to drink.
We'll do this ourselves.
Will you be fine?
Yes, I will walk together with Ah-reum down the aisle.
To your right?
Am I supposed to be on your right?
As long as you don't step on my veil.
Then I'll stand over there.
Wait.
-I'll fix it. -No, no.
Stay still. Let me.
It's not working. Wait.
Do it slowly.
What are you doing?
It's okay, Mother. I can fix it.
Just take your jacket off.
Okay.
It's time to walk...
Pick it up.
Pick up your phone.
Hey, it's me. That...
The cuff frills. Bring one here in a hurry!
There's no need for that.
Every wedding has a few snags.
There was something about this dress that bothered me.
Now I see what it was.
Sorry.
This will smear my makeup.
Why are you crying?
Because I ruined your dress.
I'm so sorry.
I'm the only person wearing a dress here.
So I'll be looking the best.
Sorry.
For not being able to give you a dream wedding.
Ji-hun.
I only need you.
Now I need you right next to me.
To fill this empty space.
So beautiful.
-Congratulations. -Thank you.
-Congratulations. -Oh, thank you.
-Congratulations to you. -You didn't have to.
-Take it. -How can I take it twice?
Actually,
we were planning to have a private wedding.
But her future in-laws...
He's their only son so...
-Have you seen the groom? -Yes.
-He looked like a movie star. -Right.
Oh, that's not true.
You're smiling too much, don't you think?
Of course I should.
People will talk if I frown today.
Did you check on my uncle? Is he drunk?
I checked on him. He's sober.
But why are you having him walk you down the aisle?
-Just because. -Figures.
Your first wedding was funny.
You and Ji-hun were crying the whole time.
Why are you bringing that up here?
Is Derek's mom wearing an off-white suit?
Yes. Isn't she so cool?
Why would she pick white to wear? That's rude.
Derek says she likes white.
What is this?
Who brought wine in here?
What time is it? Who is at our shop at this hour?
There's no time.
Wear the other dress for the after party.
It will look fine with the venue.
You sure?
It's prettier than this one. I'll bring it.
What's wrong?
Don't worry.
I can wear another dress.
It's just as nice as this one.
Do you think someone did this on purpose?
So just wear a cheap dress this time.
Don't worry. I'll make sure to protect this one.
I couldn't ask you this but...
Why did you walk down the aisle alone that day?
Well, your uncle did get drunk.
Uncle!
You promised you wouldn't drink.
Take a sip of this.
I'm going in on my own.
Was it because of Ji-hun?
What?
You could have walked together with Derek.
But you stubbornly walked alone.
I think you did that because you felt guilty towards Ji-hun.
That's what crossed my mind.
It gave me the impression that you're loyal.
Why should I be loyal to him?
Whatever.
MINISTRY OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS
Yes, I heard. Confirm it quickly.
Good work.
Amidst your busy schedule. I think Max liked our welcome.
I had some time left.
You can call me anytime.
We're doing this for the Ministry of Science. It's complicated.
Do we have a problem?
What?
Did you hear anything?
Thanks for the coffee.
Yes.
The Indian Embassy is asking us about it.
Rumor is going around
that it wasn't an accidental overdose.
INTERNATIONAL ENERGY SECURITY DIV.
Why did you come here?
I wanted to see your workplace.
You're so well-composed.
We don't have time for this.
You have to take responsibility.
Me?
For what?
You're good at making vague statements.
So even if someone overheard us, it would be hard to learn anything.
Right?
I'm having regrets for the first time.
For getting Sophie involved.
She was under so much pressure.
It was her choice.
Have you...
ever regretted
a decision you made?
You never felt like going back
and changing things?
I envied Sophie in some ways.
She made a courageous decision for love.
You think it was for love?
I can't believe that you are capable of actually loving someone.
Why do you do this work?
You get a kick out of fooling the world?
I'm not fooling people. I'm convincing them.
Peter...
We don’t have time for this.
Boss, it's your turn to make a move.
It's the only way to get what we need from the Interpol.
The Asian officers from Interpol that contacted Sophie.
-You heard anything from Doo-bong? -No.
-If you do, call me immediately. -Why?
You think Doo-bong has it?
He could have it.
Who has the most to gain from
Sophie's death?
We don't know that yet.
Do you know a good lawyer?
-Why? Did you get caught? -No.
I own a piece of land.
It's down south in Icheon.
What kind of land? Forest?
It's landlocked.
I would like to pave a road.
And build an art gallery there.
I did a deal with the owner of the adjacent land.
But he's a total jerk.
I'm trying to pave a road, and he took my money and still no road.
What should I do? Hire a lawyer or take care of him myself?
Take it easy.
Hire a lawyer.
Do you know someone that you could recommend?
Are you going to call him now?
Hello? I think he's in a meeting.
He's an international lawyer and we're tight.
Impressive.
-Do you meet him often? -Of course.
He came by yesterday to eat.
Thanks.
I don't have any friends I can trust.
You're so reliable, Doo-bong.
Oh, gosh.
Well...
I need to bring you more zha cai which you like.
I'd like roasted peanuts.
-Peanuts? That's what you want? -Yes.
I have to ignore it.
I can't listen to this.
I can't let Doo-lae see me.
Oh, no.
Oh, my...
QUICK SERVICE
If you attach this chip to a security camera,
then you can hack the signal.
You're not heading home?
-Not yet. -I have work to do.
You're not going home?
I have to get something from the office. See you tomorrow.
Who turned off the lights?
Gosh.
Who could it be?
Who is secretly watching this sacred place?
Why?
For what purpose?
To find what?
I think we're done here.
Whichever organization did it...
They had to have help from the inside
to plant all these cameras.
But what can come out of monitoring Ah-reum?
Ah-reum doesn't have any more information on Sophie.
So I don't understand.
Why? Is someone trying to harm her?
Be careful.
Step into the taxi.
Take care.
-Boss. -Yes?
Hello?
Oh, my legs are killing me.
She'll probably want instant noodles.
I'm exhausted.
My legs are killing me.
Here's the cure.
The cure.
Hey.
I feel so much better.
What if I joined you on your trips?
What? Why?
You had a tough client today?
It would be nice to get a massage
under a coconut tree with you at my side.
Traveling is your job.
While I'm stuck in the office.
So jealous.
I give a better massage than the local masseuses.
There you go.
Leave the dishes there. Go to bed.
If you sleep right after having instant noodles,
you'll wake up all bloated.
-I'll do the dishes. -Just rest.
The cure worked.
Let's go.
You look so tired.
I brought a sandwich.
-Wear the tuxedo first. -Okay.
You lost some weight.
You'll look great in the photos.
And this...
Hey.
Snap out of it. This is work.
It doesn't look right.
Wait a minute.
Ji-hun! Where are you?
Seo-ra is looking for you.
We need you back here.
Okay.
Ji-hun needs to be on standby! Where is he? He left this to you?
Did you contact him?
Where the hell is he?
He's probably following his ex-wife.
-But I have a question. -What?
It was tough to listen in on the conversations.
You're faking it, right? You're not in him, are you?
You were putting so much emotion into it.
That's how you're supposed to act.
If I act like an amateur, I'll be dead.
You'll die and we'll all die.
Where's your head at?
I was worried about you.
Why would you worry about me?
It's not like you're my boyfriend.
What is this? I hate this scene the most.
Watching college couples fight in front of the library.
Why are you fighting like an old couple?
We have the stalker in our sights, right?
I need backup.
Seo-ra.
What is Doo-bong like?
He's a slimy guy.
A real slimeball.
Among all the guys I've seduced,
he's been the easiest target so far.
That's a problem.
Former officers are usually the hardcore guys in the underworld.
Narcotics agents are the worst drug addicts once they get hooked.
He was never qualified to be an officer.
Young-gu.
One of us could turn out like that.
Impossible.
Hey.
If there were a traitor among us, who do you think it would be?
Not him.
Look at his face.
He wears his emotions on his sleeve.
The harder he tries to hide his feelings, the worse he feels.
You could see the anguish in his face.
Hey, where were you all day?
Don't skip your meals.
I'll have Chinese food.
Hey, order Chinese food for him.
You're all tired, I know.
We're all on standby.
And then we'll attack in one swoop. Okay?
Keep your lips sealed.
We can't leak any information. That could ruin everything, okay?
Nobody is saying yes.
-Did you see something shocking? -Yes. What?
No.
Did something happen to Ah-reum?
Nothing. She's well protected.
What a mess.
You don't know what she's thinking.
Her husband hired a goon to tail her. She can't be okay.
She's probably furious.
I know. This Derek guy is different.
She's probably mad.
You're out of touch.
AI-DRIVEN QUICK DELIVERIES
Getting a head start doesn't mean you get there faster. AI-DRIVEN QUICK DELIVERIES
Getting a head start doesn't mean you get there faster.
You don't get there faster? What a joke.
Kim Dong-ran.
"Overnight delivery is a success."
"The possible heir of DDK Group."
Give me a break! I'll just...
What do they know?
Hey, when is my dad coming back?
The chairman will leave Indonesia tomorrow afternoon.
Make sure
-I get to talk to him tomorrow. -Okay, sir.
-Have the chairs aligned. -Okay.
-Get the dais prepared. -Okay.
It has to be right.
DDK GROUP CHARITY AUCTION
Ma'am.
You're not in a wheelchair today.
I like the one without the veil.
It's a set.
Oh, I see.
Give it to me.
Open it.
This is such a masterpiece.
-You're here, Dong-taek. -Hey.
You made a lot of preparations. Good work.
-Oh, well. Let's go. -Sure.
Do you recognize this work?
It's going to start soon. When will Derek be here?
He'll be late.
This piece was painted by Kim Jung-hee
and donated for this auction charity by DDK Medical CEO Kim Dong-taek.
It's estimated value is roughly three billion won.
It's for a good cause.
CEO Kim Dong-taek is indeed
embodying the spirit of noblesse oblige.
So bidding will start at 520 million
and increase in five million increments.
520 million, 525 million.
You said he was coming tomorrow.
He changed his flight schedule.
Has he gone senile?
Where do you think you're going?
Let go of me!
-Sir. -Are you desperate?
Dad is coming to see me.
Why you...
-Ma'am! -Sir!
Not today.
Let's go.
Sir!
That's why you fail.
Grab that.
Pull it.
-Pull it. -Hey!
Get out of my way!
Are you okay?
That hurts!
Move it!
You said you learned martial arts.
Chairman Kim Tak of DDK Group
has come all the way to this auction charity event.
CEO Kim Dong-ran is with him.
Now we'll present the next item.
This piece is...
What's going on?
It's the first time that he's being seen
with his daughter who was born out of wedlock at an official event.
-What about her mother? -She's staying out of public view.
It's her first time to be seen together with her dad.
In her finest outfit.
Where are you?
Inside the building,
there's a tearful reunion taking place.
For 30 years, my dad hid his lovechild.
But today, they're taking photos together.
Do you know what that implies?
My dad has chosen her to take over the company.
That could happen. It's not the Joseon Dynasty.
Hey!
I don't need your understanding, okay?
Do you know what comes up if you search my name?
Heroin. Drug conviction. Assault.
Hiring goons. Abusive boss.
That's my image.
This is who I am.
I've been playing nice with you.
Hey.
You can't even return the money I lent you now.
Because I'm going to stuff it into your mouth.
Every single bill.
Before I add another conviction to my record,
get what I need.
If you can't get the nuclear fusion secrets,
then bring me the sun.
Open the door!
That's your husband, right?
They seem to be close.
I don't think they hang out just to restore cars.
The number you have dialed cannot be reached.
HUSBAND
You'll be charged after the beep. HUSBAND
MESSAGE
I can't make it. A meeting came up.
Sorry.
I'll pass the target exam in flying colors.
Hey, Ji-hun.
Let's compete.
I thought this was an emergency.
I will if you compete with me.
What do you have for me?
Dashcam footage from a car near the murder site.
There was a car accident
nearby at that hour.
I obtained the footage from the car owner.
It's in my possession.
You're going to give it to me anyway.
Just compete once with me.
I'm on a roll. I think I can beat you this time.
Nice!
What?
You'll find it on my desk.
He never loses.
How does he do it?
He's too good. Drats.
-Are you done practicing? -Yes.
How long do I have to take these exams?
You can't see well?
Ji-hun will join us after he meets with the chief.
Okay.
Why does Doo-bong want to see you today?
We're going
shopping together.
Shopping too?
Why did the car parts get delivered here?
DEREK HYUN
Hello.
It's been a while since I last came.
These parts were delivered to our home.
Thank you.
Hello, sir.
Don't mind me.
Just give me a minute.
-Hello. -I came to pay the bill.
And this is what I got from the head office.
They also had a special message for your boss.
-Try it on. -Thank you.
-Does it look nice? -Very nice.
It looks nice. Keep it on.
-I'll call you soon. -Sure.
Call me later then.
Bye.
The place smells like gasoline, doesn't it?
Oh, that's what I was smelling.
Would you like some coffee?
We have some iced coffee as well.
Sure.
Sophie!
Jenny! You came.
What's this static?
Have a seat, Jenny.
This is my friend. He's an international lawyer.
It's not dangerous,
but you have to be careful.
Maybe Derek isn't coming here today.
I'll get going.
What brings you here?
Your wife brought a package.
A package?
INTERPOL, KOREAN NATIONAL CENTRAL BUREAU
I think he knows about it.
Tell me what you know.
It's better if you didn't know.
It makes me more curious that you're hiding it.
Don't mess with me.
Your wife concerns me.
If Derek is involved...
What is Ah-reum doing? She's putting herself in danger.
Everything okay?
It was all right until you came along.
If anything happens, call me.
I'll always come to help.
Sophie's party was held
upon his order.
Derek?
Be honest with me.
I'm actually a spy.
I'm a spy.
