CHARACTERS, PLACES, ORGANIZATIONS, INCIDENTS

AND OCCUPATIONS ARE FICTITIOUS

Watch and see

what happens to your parents.

No!

No.

Get up.

Get up.

Get up!

I said, get up!

Ji Cheong-sin is dead.

That means Mun's parents and Cheol-jung are also…

No.

No, that can't be.

Ms. Chu.

Ms. Chu, help me. Ms. Chu!

Mun.

There's no pulse.

Mun.

Hey, get up.

Get up. I don't believe this.

This can't be happening. Hey!

Hey, get up!

Get up! Get the hell up!

Get up…

Hey…

No!

No!

Back off, all of you! Do you want the kid to die?

-Let the kid go. -Let him go!

Don't come near me. I'll kill you all.

Damn it!

GYEONGIN POLICE STATION

How dare they…

do this to me.

Right here. This is the climax.

Mr. Shin.

I believe life is all about making choices.

I am dying to know

what you will choose to do.

Can we really keep on interrogating Shin Myeong-hwi?

What will happen to us if he ends up winning the election?

That's why we have to uncover the truth.

We cannot let a murderer become the next president.

I know that, but…

Come on. Let's go.

INVESTIGATION ROOM

Hey, call an ambulance.

-Go. Call them now! -Yes, sir.

-Jeez. -This is insane.

119 EMERGENCY RESPONSE

EPISODE 14

You said

they were immortal.

You said level-four evil spirits

never die.

Because he was inside the barrier,

the ability to be immortal

was probably deactivated.

Mun, as you know,

when a host dies,

both the evil spirit

and all the other spirits that were locked inside die with it.

No.

That can't be right.

No way.

There's no way my parents' souls

dissipated in vain like that.

You see,

I can still feel them.

I know they're still somewhere in this realm!

I'm sorry

I couldn't keep my promise, Mun.

Mun.

Hey, Mun!

Hey, lazybones. You're still in bed?

Hey, Mun. Wake up.

Your grandma has been cooking up a storm in the kitchen the whole morning.

Come on. Get up.

Are you that tired?

How is it?

Your grandma put her cooking skills to use to make your favorite dishes.

Is it good?

Yes, Grandma.

It's good. It's very tasty.

I'd been so busy grieving my daughter's death

that I hadn't been able to cook a proper meal for my grandson.

I'm really sorry, Mun.

No. It's okay, Grandma.

You have no reason

to be sorry.

I'm sure your mom's waiting for me in heaven,

so I should just take good care of you until I can see her again.

Here, eat as much as you want.

This is delicious.

What a busy winter break for you.

The contest deadline is coming up.

I'll see you later.

All right, good luck. Make sure you eat lunch.

And be nice to your friends.

Okay.

Don't force yourself to smile.

I'm sorry.

That's not what I meant. We're really okay.

All right.

EONNI'S NOODLES

We all had those days.

EONNI'S NOODLES

How are the kids at the children's home? All okay?

Yes, of course.

They'll be protected at the best facility and will grow up just fine.

Okay.

But I wonder where Baek Hyang-hui went.

I'm sure that crazy girl is going to cause trouble sooner or later.

-Mun. -You see,

I won't give up like this.

You may think I'm crazy, but I can really feel them.

I can still feel my parents' presence in this realm.

I'll keep going. I have to, for the sake of my grandparents.

Mun.

No, just give me some time.

I'll take a little break from my job as a Counter.

I promise you I'll find the evil spirit that has vanished.

-Mun. -Don't try to change my mind.

-Ha-na, I-- -If you're right,

upon leaving Ji Cheong-sin's body,

it found a host with the same vibrational frequency.

In other words, it must've gone to someone who's that evil.

Ha-na.

Mun has a point.

That was a level-four evil spirit.

There's a possibility that the evil spirit

killed the host and found itself a new host upon becoming complete.

If that is what happened,

we'll need to spot the evil spirit in its new host,

so summon our territory at a place where it may show up.

Then I'll try to spot it.

All right.

We'll do it even if there's only a one-in-a-million chance.

Let's do everything we can.

-Right? -Yes! Of course, we should.

That was my plan anyway.

You should've said so before.

Yes, it's too late.

Is it?

Do you really mean it?

Yes, I do.

Don't cry.

-You silly goose, why are you crying? -Goodness.

If you cry, the rainbow--

Hey, enough.

Don't ever say you quit.

JUNGJIN UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL

Hello, I'm here to check in on Mr. Shin.

What happened?

I saved you.

You saved me?

Don't you remember?

You asked me to save you.

You desperately called out to me.

-Now, we must -Now, we must

-protect each other. -protect each other.

Some suspect that Mayor Shin might have tried

to take his own life because he was unable to cope with the stress

of being interrogated as a suspect.

INCOMING CALL MAYOR SHIN MYEONG-HWI

INCOMING CALL MAYOR SHIN MYEONG-HWI

My gosh!

I was sad about how we ended things.

I'm so glad I got to see you one more time, Mr. Mayor.

You said you wanted the City of Jungjin.

You've always coveted my position.

I'll let you have it.

Have you lost your mind now that you've come back from the dead?

Look, do you realize that--

How… How did you…

I'll let you have it if you stay on your knees in front of me.

Let's take care of the urgent stuff first.

You're turning yourself in for the murder of Kim Yeong-nim?

Yes, I killed her.

Kim Yeong-nim.

Mayor Shin is a useless card to us now.

So why should I do that?

I have no idea what happened to him,

but he has the powers that Ji Cheong-sin had.

We have no choice now.

When the time is right,

I'll get you out on parole.

This is surely enough to get you locked up.

I cannot let Mayor Shin be wrongfully convicted.

Noh Hang-gyu of Taesin turned himself in for the murder

that took place seven years ago.

Noh stated that Mayor Shin Myeong-hwi

had nothing to do with the murder and has confessed that

he killed the victim and abandoned the body all by himself.

Even though Mayor Shin managed to clear his name,

he has expressed his intention to resign…

Shin Myeong-hwi got away once again.

Shin Myeong-hwi…

I'll be sure to catch you this time,
