Tomorrow (내일)

ALL CHARACTERS, EVENTS, ORGANIZATIONS, AND INSTITUTIONS IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTITIOUS.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE CASES MAY CONTAIN SCENES THAT MAY BE UNCOMFORTABLE TO THE VIEWERS.

Sir, what brings you here?

I wanted to look someone up.

Did you get the Director's approval?

Do you need one to view another Reaper's Book?

Yes, because privacy laws are just as strict here at Jumadeung.

I'd like to take a look at my Book.

Just a moment, please.

That's odd.

You can take a look at your previous life

but the one before that is locked.

It's locked?

It's not common,

but the only person who can look at this

is the Director.

-How so? -Because the Director locked it herself.

I'll be off then.

Wait.

Are there Reapers besides me whose previous lives are locked?

Just a moment.

There is one more.

Ms. Koo Ryeon.

ESCORT TEAM EMPLOYEE JEON BO-YUN

I've been newly assigned to the team. My name is Jeon Bo-yun, sir.

It's been a long time.

Have you finally become a Jumadeung employee?

Do you remember me, sir?

I almost didn't recognize you. You've changed your appearance.

I thought you wouldn't remember me because I'd died when I was young.

You are not the only exception.

I remember everyone I've escorted.

I was told at the Training Center that souls find it uncomfortable

if they are being escorted by a child.

I was told I should present myself as an adult.

Do you think they'll be uncomfortable with this hair color?

It's fine as long as you do your job well.

Is today

the day that person dies?

Yes, it is.

Seeing you at the end of such a difficult life

will help them pass peacefully,

so escort them well.

Thank you for your consideration,

Mr. Park.

Mr. Park.

I…

I wanted to tell you

that you are the person I admire the most in this world.

TOMORROW

X. SPRING

-You're going to see Ms. Yoo Bok-hui? -Yes.

She has been on our list for a long time

but her level has spiked recently.

It seems the RM Team and the Escort Team are meant to work together.

For this case,

you are to work with the Escort Team's new Reaper.

The Escort Team?

Why do we have to?

Think of it as a similar case to Mr. Lee Young-chun.

Your team must save the suicide risk case,

while the new Escort Team Reaper will escort the newly departed soul.

The soul that the new Reaper will be escorting

is someone related to Choi Jun-woong's past life.

-What? -Not that he knows yet.

Yes. Here she comes.

Hello, ma'am.

You must be Ms. Koo.

-Do you know me? -Of course!

You're the most famous Reaper in Jumadeung.

You are renowned among the new Reapers.

Notorious, more like.

Anyway,

-I understand. -Okay.

Say hello, everyone.

This is the new Reaper in the Escort Team. She'll be working with us.

Gosh. A newbie?

I used to be like that once too, right?

Nice to meet you.

Okay. Ms. Jeon, right?

Working at Jumadeung is a bit hard,

but don't be nervous. Just relax.

Make yourself comfortable.

Okay. Thank you.

There are so many nice people in the Risk Management Team.

Hard times really are soon forgotten, I see.

-Let's get to work. -Yes, ma'am!

Yoo Bok-hui.

91 years old.

Has one son and one daughter and a husband who passed away.

She's well-off with no apparent problems.

She's on good terms with her grandchildren too.

So why…

Who will you be escorting for this case?

Ms. Lee Jeong-mun desperately wants to see Ms. Yoo Bok-hui

before she passes.

I wonder how the two know each other.

STATUE OF PEACE

MOUNTAIN

Ms. Yoo Bok-hui?

Don't worry.

Our team is cleaning the statue.

Most people just pass by the statue, but why were you…

There's a childhood friend of mine

that I've been looking for for a long time.

I've been

searching for Yun-i desperately, hoping that it wasn't too late.

But she…

Yun-i…

I only found out recently that she was forced to become a comfort woman.

May I ask how you found out about this?

My grandson is studying history at university,

and he's very interested in the Japanese Colonial Period.

I happened to look at the pictures he printed

of the Imperial Japanese Army's comfort women.

Among the young girls in the pictures

was my friend.

There was no way I couldn't recognize her.

Because she was wearing the scarf I had given her.

It never occurred to me that Yun-i…

had been forced to become a comfort woman.

So whenever I see the Statue of Peace,

it reminds me of my Yun-i,

and my heart aches so much.

So when it rains,

I put an umbrella over her so she won't have to sit in the rain.

Don't get rained on.

And when anyone horrible vandalizes her,

I wipe her clean.

That's how I've been living.

Unless I'm wrong,

I take it you two are Reapers from the afterworld.

Yes.

How did you know?

I guess my senses have evolved at this age

because I notice things others wouldn't.

Not to mention the aura you both have.

However, we are not here to escort you.

-Sorry? -Our duty is to help people live out

their given lifespan.

You were preparing to take your own life,

so you were wrapping up any loose ends.

How did you know?

Is it because

you feel guilty about Yun-i?

Yun-i…

Is Yun-i alive?

-Or… -She died a long time ago.

If you could look here,

at this woman.

I'd like for you to meet Ms. Lee Jeong-mun.

I've lived

a good and comfortable life, so I didn't have any regrets.

That is until I found out that I was the one who had sent Yun-i to that place.

I have no right to see her.

Because I have wronged her and Yun-i.

You might come to regret this even more.

Because time waits for no one.

Ms. Lee Jeong-mun does not have long to live.

She is holding on to life with great determination

because she wants to meet you, someone who remembers Yun-i.

Why don't you see her before you decide?

Seriously, this is awful.

How crazy do you have to be to vandalize this?

I just wish it wasn't a Korean who did this.

Then it'd be like being stabbed in the back.

Are you cold?

You shouldn't have taken off your jacket.

Well…

She looked a little cold.

By the way, how did you come to work at the Escort Team, Ms. Jeon?

Isn't Mr. Park a bit scary?

I first met Mr. Park during the Japanese Colonial Period.

Things were completely bleak during that time.

We were mercilessly crushed because our country was weak.

But isn't the afterworld divided by country too?

That's right.

Back then, things were not easy for Jumadeung either.

"Please, let me live."

"Let me live, please."

You got it exactly right.

If they wanted to live so much,

they should have been born in the Empire of Japan!

That's right. Stupid Josenjings.

I want to see my mother and sister.

Please, let me return to my homeland.

-Please-- -Shut up!

What are you doing?

He's only a child.

Why do we have to go to the Japanese afterworld?

Shut up!

What homeland or afterlife is there for bastards who have no country?

The sheer arrogance of these Josenjings .

Rubbish.

You worthless Japanese bastards!

You are a Josenjing , a vermin!

How dare you insult the Reaper of the Empire!

You wish to suffer pain even in death, is that it?

Why do we have to follow you,

even after death?
