Run On (런 온)

ALL LOCATIONS, CHARACTERS, ORGANIZATIONS, AND INCIDENTS

DEPICTED IN THIS DRAMA ARE ENTIRELY FICTITIOUS

Seon-gyeom, where are you going?

-Hey! -What's with him?

Mr. Ki, are you feeling unwell?

Is this about the scandal?

Is the rumor true?

Why didn't you run?

Because I couldn't.

I assaulted

my juniors.

An assault?

Did he just admit to it?

-Did you get that? -My gosh.

Aren't you going to translate that?

He must be insane.

What?

-No way. -Seriously?

Get his photo.

EPISODE 4

We'll release a separate statement.

That's it for today. Thank you, everyone.

Thank you.

The reporters aren't following.

They're probably in a tight spot.

There are major political figures present here

so they must be confused.

Aren't you scared?

I've made my move.

All I can do now is to wait and see how things turn out.

I guess raising children is hard for every family, Assemblyman Ki.

This must be due to my lack of conversation with him.

I'll excuse myself.

If this were an official race, he'd be disqualified

for not running.

It wouldn't be a DQ, but a DNF. Know your facts before babbling.

D what?

He wouldn't be disqualified, this isn't against the rules.

He just didn't finish.

Even while making a mess, he still didn't break the rules.

Damn bastard.

Ms. Seo, are you all right?

Go and dump water on the reporters and any electronic devices they have.

Was that too tacky?

Oh, dear.

You're Kim Woo-sik, right?

Are you perhaps the fellow runner who Ki Seon-gyeom was referring to?

Was it Ki Seon-gyeom who assaulted you?

No, Seon-gyeom wouldn't do that to me.

You're the only runner who's injured though.

Is it retaliation you're worried about?

No.

That's not it.

-You see-- -Coming through.

Woo-sik.

-Come on. -Coach.

-Let's go. -Woo-sik, come on.

-Come on. -Wait for me inside.

-Mr. Kim? -Mr. Kim, wait.

-Excuse me. -What were you about to say?

You should talk to the head coach.

Hey, keep your mouth shut.

Can't you see you ruined practice?

What's this about Mr. Ki's assault?

It wasn't an assault, but his way of keeping his juniors in line.

Meanwhile, Woo-sik was injured during practice,

so please don't jump to any conclusions.

Seon-gyeom has trained with this team for a few years now

and they're all on good terms.

It seems like Seon-gyeom has been stressed out

with his relationship problems,

and that must have led him to act out.

At least two people will kill me, right? Three, including Professor Hwang.

Don't worry too much. It's me on the chopping block anyway.

At least I won't be lonely on my way to hell.

Miss!

Miss, do you really think I hired you just as an interpreter?

Why did you do something you weren't told to do?

I did what was asked of me.

Didn't you hire me to be my client's ears and voice?

What?

You insolent wench, how dare you--

Let's not kill the messenger.

And you dare call yourself my son?

How could you do something so stupid?

I told you that your flaws reflect on me!

Why are you pissed off over a minor beating?

It's not like you used drugs for leisure or performance-enhancement.

You only roughed up some kids!

What did you just say?

It's not like you'd lose the election over a minor scuffle.

If that were true, you wouldn't be in your fourth term.

What is your problem?

You've never been like this before.

You're the one who added fuel to the fire.

I let you become a runner even though it was a waste of time.

So what about your life are you complaining about?

You say that like my life has been mine to live.

What?

That time when I had surgery when I was a javelin thrower.

Do you remember the first thing you said to me on that day?

"Your shoulder is wasted now and is of no use."

Your shoulder is wasted now and is of no use.

Your legs are still healthy enough, so why not try soccer instead?

God blessed you with an opportunity before it was too late.

Use this chance to finally fulfill your dream.

I've never wanted to play soccer or become a national athlete.

Just how much do you love me to dream and plan my future?

What did you just say? You darn brat…

What if I injure my leg? What use will you have for me then?

Will you marry me off to a family who'll secure your political career?

You…

-Are you talking about me right now? -Is that what I was doing?

Damn you.

You ungrateful brat.

Do you not know how much I love you?

Unwanted love

is the same as violence.

Suck it up!

That's the love I have for you.

Now, get lost.

I don't want to see your face, so get lost!

Mr. Ki, are you all right?

My gosh.

What's with your face? Did someone hit you?

The photo shoot is still on, right?

It won't be revealed domestically anyway.

It's for the States and China.

And people there won't care even if it's murder I committed.

Isn't that what I should say?

Keep going if you're not finished.

That means my photo shoot will go on as scheduled, right?

What matters anyway is whose clothes I'm wearing.

Your sister's on standby, so I need to head there.

I'm saying I'm busy.

But you pulling the trigger like this

finally made me understand your mood.

Don't do anything until I come up with a solution.

Cleaning up the mess is easier than reversing time.

Get some fresh air

and be on set in the evening.

Got it.

Am I the only one here

who isn't following this development?

Follow me and I'll explain.

I never said to take your interpreter with you.

She's my interpreter.

How can I go to places sans my ears and voice?

You say that as if you're in Hawaii, not Jeju.

Jeez, I sure am popular today.

This must be the time to take it out on the one who deserves it.

We should talk, Assemblyman Ki.

So it's my dad who hired you.

No wonder why Ms. Seo wasn't pleased.

Well, it's quite a long story,

but it's not like what you think.

Ms. Seo and I wouldn't have gotten along anyway.

We just don't click.

Let's head to the resort first.

My rental car is there.

Are you really going out to cool down?

I guess I should start listening to Ms. Seo, right?

I really don't follow.

I know that my son has been giving you a hassle.

That's rich considering

how you thrust someone you hired my way.

It was an unpleasant experience, sir.

Bring back that interpreter.

Will you be taking it out on her instead

since you can't hit your beloved son anymore?

I have a right to reprimand her.

I even gave her some pocket money

so that she'd do right by Seon-gyeom.

If chump change can get you that right, I'd throw around cash myself.

I haven't said anything while you seduced my children for your pet project.

Besides, my son wouldn't have come here had I not told him to.

-Proud, are you? -You might not have been able to use him

for your clothing business.

But you use him for your campaign.

Ms. Seo,

watch what you're saying.

You hired someone on your own because you wanted to keep me in check.

Now look where that got you.

She translated every last detail

-that she didn't have to-- -That interpreter

-isn't one of my people. -Well, she surely isn't mine.

Is she with your son then since that's who she translates for?

Let's solve this with money and keep it simple.

Don't you see where that got you? Your son has quite the temper, doesn't he?

I'll take care of this as nicely as possible.

An assault charge doesn't do me any favors either.

I'm a hopeful candidate in the next presidential election.

He can't be dismissed from the team until I announce my candidacy.

A dismissal instead of retirement--

Just watch your approval rating and stay out of my way.

That damn girl…

I'm sorry, but I can't speak English.

He wants an interview with you.

Sorry?

You're Kim Woo-sik, right?
