L.U.C.A.: The Beginning (루카: 더 비기닝)

He would've used all of his energy even if it killed him.

So he probably doesn't remember who he is by now.

Zi O, you punk.

He's back.

We're doing our best to bring him in.

Run away.

Don't do it!

This may be a great opportunity.

You know this is your last chance, don't you?

Whichever of the two is alive is the murder suspect.

We've met, haven't we?

I remember exactly who you are.

So you'd better remember...

what happened to my parents.

But he won't die, right?

He can still die if he's in critical condition.

If he died, bring me his body. In the freshest state possible.

He ran away.

He was dying, but he got up...

The weak cells probably died, and only the strong cells survived.

I've been waiting for you. What did I do to you?

I'm the one with questions.

We'll be back, Gu Reum.

Stay home alone for just a little while.

Where are you going?

We won't take long. It'll take less than an hour.

Let's go eat tonkatsu for lunch.

Mom.

My baby, let's go eat something more delicious than tonkatsu.

Like what?

Whatever you want. Your dad will buy it for you.

We'll see you later.

Search carefully.

Darn it.

Guys.

Gu Reum is in trouble.

She either got kidnapped or went missing.

Restrict all the entrances of the adjoining subway stations...

so that no one can get out.

Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.

My goodness! - Oh, my gosh!

Move!

Move! - Grab one!

My gosh! - Hurry!

Let's go! - Move!

Hurry up!

Is this really possible?

No, it's impossible.

This is totally insane.

This is a mixture of everything.

He has the DNA of humans, immortal jellyfish,

electric eels, and even flies.

Do you think this is genome editing?

It's impossible to edit all these genes together at once.

Unless they put all these animals into a blender...

and combined them all together.

That means they manipulated the germ cells.

Regardless of whether this is possible or not, it's illegal.

What kind of lunatic would do that kind of experiment?

No one I know of. Except for one person.

Who?

Professor Ryu Jeung Kwon.

"Ryu Jeung Kwon"?

You mean the guy who lost his one arm?

You know him? - Of course.

He got kicked out of school and arrested...

because of the genetic modification experiment he did.

Gosh, he's known to be a real psycho in this field.

He's a complete lunatic.

We went to college together.

He used to be my best friend.

Oh, I see. I'm sorry.

You don't need to apologize.

I was the one who told people that he was crazy...

and suggested that he should get kicked out of school.

Come on! Hurry!

Let's get out of here!

Aren't you hungry?

What? We're all doing this to make a living.

Cut it out. This is serious.

What's more serious than having to eat when you're hungry?

Hey.

Let's go.

Everyone makes at least one big mistake in life.

For instance, they commit murder, steal, do drugs, or get married.

But you've already made a big mistake.

You were bound to rot in jail, but I got you out.

Then you should've made sure not to make another mistake.

I apologize.

An apology isn't going to cut it.

I can find him.

Where? How?

And don't say you're going to wait until he shows up again.

He disappeared with...

the female cop that followed us at the hospital.

The cops are probably looking for her.

If we're able to keep track of their investigation records,

we'll be able to find them before they do.

What if he just left that cop and ran away by himself?

If he left her there, she would've gotten hit by the subway.

But he came and saved her.

He would've run.

I've never seen him save someone before.

I'll get you the investigation records, so find him.

If you do this right, I'll let you retire.

You can't live here forever.

You should live in a house that has windows and a garden.

You can also get yourself a dog.

But don't get married.

It only causes trouble.

I need to get shots every two weeks anyway.

I can't leave this place even if I want to.

I'm sure we can find a way.

If you find Zi O, I'll give you one of his arms.

You know we can transplant his body onto yours.

Will you really do that for me?

What would be so difficult about giving you an arm?

Solving a single problem could lead everything else to fall into place.

Once we take care of this, everything else will be minuscule.

You'd better catch him this time.

If you fail to catch him again,

it'll make me start questioning your competence.

I tried to stop your bleeding, but I'm not sure if it's healed.

You hurt your head. Take it easy.

That's the last thing I'll do with you.

That's enough.

Just tell me what you know about me.

You said you know me.

If you want to know, you tell me first.

Tell me what you remember.

Someone collapsed.

I remember saving her.

I think it was you, but I'm not sure.

Thank you for saving my life.

There. You happy?

What else do you remember?

I don't remember anything else.

I woke up at the hospital and ran until I got here.

That's all I remember.

Who were those guys who chased after you at the subway station?

I don't know. - Do you remember...

falling from the rooftop?

What about Mr. Kim's death?

Who's Mr. Kim?

Did you hurt your head?

Tell me what you know.

Move.

Don't you feel safe enough to tell me now?

I wonder who he was...

considering they came all the way to the hospital to kill him.

They probably wanted to get rid of the witness of a murder incident.

But he broke his back.

How did he suddenly get up and run away?

Maybe it was someone else's X-ray.

Maybe he was fine to begin with.

Sir, aren't you suspicious as well?

I'm more shocked that people kill their own parents for money.

And how could they be cruel enough to kidnap and bury those kids?

That's what I don't get.

My gosh, why are you suddenly acting so humane?

Listen, you punk.

The moment you think it's okay to kill parents and kids,

you lose your right to be human.

I know that.

But it's weird that you're being like this all of a sudden.

Are you planning to run for an election?

I might see you eating tteokbokki and sundae...

at a market place tomorrow.

You know what I mean, right?

You'll start talking about your hardships, you know.

What's taking him so long?

Gosh, you scared me.

Hey, you got it? You found something, right?

Yes, I did. - See? What did I tell you?

Shortly after the fire incident was reported,

a vehicle in the vicinity was reported stolen.

"22G 7801". A silver sedan.

I've put out an APB.

Okay, thanks.

See? It's not like he could've carried Gu Reum on his back.

He stole a vehicle and managed to escape.

Only seasoned veterans like me can figure out this much.

Well done. Great job.

Now, comb through the CCTV footage and locate that vehicle.

Wait, you want me to do that?

Captain.

Goodness. Can't he get the juniors to do it?

The police are trying to locate the stolen vehicle now.

Wait in the car.

How can you...

not remember anything?

I do remember some things, but I don't know what they are.

I don't even know if they're my memories.

Then...

how do you remember me?

I was curious about that too. That's why I saved you.

Have we met before?

If there's no one else like you,

then I'm sure it was you.

Hey, turn up the siren...
