Tomorrow (내일)

TOMORROW

10 YEARS AGO

Can I ask you a question? There's something I'm curious about.

Why don't you sleep, sir?

Why are you smiling?

You've been working under me for about 200 years now,

and that's the first question you want to ask me?

The truth is I can't sleep.

I'm afraid of falling asleep.

When I sleep, that horrible moment keeps repeating itself.

Who are you?

Sadness and rage.

Distrust and despair.

And…

lethargy.

The person looks exactly like me

but that's not me.

So I hate seeing that nightmare every time I fall asleep.

I'm

afraid to fall asleep.

Does that answer your question?

Yes.

TOMORROW

VI. BROKER

Death by asphyxiation.

EPISODE 8

In a sealed room.

A gas tank.

SUICIDE RISK CASE SUMMARY REPORT

DEATH BY ASPHYXIATION

NITROGEN

Where did she get something like that?

GAS

GAS SUICIDE

What is this?

NITROGEN

Have some too.

Yes. Are you okay?

Before,

I was never happy even when I was eating the most delicious things,

but I'm much better now.

That's good to hear.

But…

why did you ask to see me?

I was curious about something.

The things that were in your room that day.

Right.

I was wondering if you could tell me where you got them.

I know, of course.

It's not something that's easy to talk about.

And I'm not trying to blame you either.

I was just thinking something like this shouldn't happen again…

I posted things on my social media.

About how I wanted to die.

CAN YOU REALLY DIE WITHOUT PAIN?

Then one day,

Someone sent me a private message.

IT WAS DEVELOPED AS A GUARANTEED AND PAINLESS WAY TO END YOUR LIFE

They said they could help me.

Ma'am.

-Here you go. -What's up? You…

I see. It's performance evaluation season.

Yes.

I'd appreciate it if you could give me a good evaluation.

You're a good person and you're great at your job already.

You're pretty ambitious, aren't you?

I bet you're the only Reaper in Jumadeung

who has given up on a promotion.

Is that why you are afraid of nothing?

Is that an insult or a compliment?

Both.

I'll exercise my own discretion for your evaluation.

As you wish.

Ma'am.

The things I saw in Ms. Shin Ye-na's room.

-The-- -Mr. Choi.

Did you check your email?

-What? -The performance evaluation form.

Employees are supposed to evaluate each other's work performance.

You can fill out the evaluations for Ms. Koo and me.

That's not what's important right now…

I found people who use suicide as a way to make money.

Take a look at this.

It's similar to what happened with Ms. Shin Ye-na.

They only accept cryptocurrencies so they can't be traced.

These bastards are complete professionals.

Come to think of it, I think they were the ones behind our previous case.

You mean the van?

They're very well prepared. How did they meet?

I think they met through a broker.

What is it? Why don't I know?

It happened before you got here.

They make posts on social media saying

they'll teach them a surefire and painless method.

Or they message people who are depressed to recruit them.

Yes.

I knew it wasn't their first time.

Let's get those bastards.

No. Don't do anything rash.

How is this rash?

What? Are you going to go and bring them to justice?

Don't kid yourself.

That's not our job.

Reapers may not use their powers in front of people

or intervene in their affairs.

I'm sure you know that very well.

He's right.

As you know, our job is to help people to live out their designated lifespan.

That's it.

Why? Intervening is what we do.

That's only limited to the people on The Red Light.

The permission is temporary.

Still, this is--

If we start intervening in human affairs, there would be no end to it.

Politics, society, war, pollution.

We'll be mixed up in countless issues.

It's the job of the living to take care of the social order. Do you understand?

The Risk Management Team is strictly temporary.

With so many people in the company against this team,

is it necessary for us to cause more problems?

So we just leave these psychos alone?

I'm sorry. It can't be helped.

But this situation is different. Like with Ms. Shin.

Because of these guys,

we might not be able to save the people who are at risk.

Ma'am, please reconsider your decision.

No.

Please, Ma'am.

Mr. Choi Jun-woong.

Again, it's not our job to bring justice.

I don't want to hear it!

I'm just telling you what I think. Is anything I'm saying wrong?

This is so frustrating.

Jeez!

If you don't care about it, then just say so.

"Don't kid yourself, it's not our job to bring justice."

Whatever.

If I can't get help from the afterworld,

I'll get it from the Land of the Living.

TRUSTWORTHY POLICE POLICE OFFICE

So you're saying that there are people selling tools to aid in the suicide

of suicidal people in exchange for money?

-Is that it? -Yes.

They're evil guys who gather people to encourage mass suicide.

Do you have proof?

I found an online cafe that proves it. Hang on.

Here, look at this.

-Jeez. -What?

Sorry. I did find a link.

See, here. This one.

They're just some scammers

who take the money and send fake items or disappear.

No, I'm telling the truth.

If you bring me more conclusive proof, then I'll think about it.

Wait. What do you mean,

you'll think about it when I get more conclusive proof?

Aren't you being irresponsible?

Isn't this something the police should be investigating?

Sir, we're very busy people.

It's hard enough having to deal with tons of ridiculous reports every day.

So,

just stop it with this pointless report.

"Pointless"? People's lives are at stake!

I've had enough.

You dare raise your voice in a police station?

Who are you anyway?

I'm a Grim…

What I mean is…

You are?

I'm looking for a job.

Sir.

Just focus on finding a job, instead of wasting your time like this.

Isn't the job competition really fierce these days?

What does that have to do with this?

You have too much time on your hands.

That's why you're looking into these things.

No, I'm telling you it's real!

Get out! I'm busy enough as it is.

Busy?

I'm telling you! It's real!

Let's go, sir.

Let's not make a scene.

You people are all the same!

HUMAN RIGHTS, IMPARTIAL, KIND

Let go of me!

Jeez.

I'm telling you, it's real!

Goodness.

They're all the same,

whether in the afterworld or the Land of the Living.

What is this?

NITROGEN

THE OFFICER WHO WAS AT THE SCENE SAID THE ENTIRE APARTMENT WAS FULL OF NITROGEN GAS

Never mind, I'll find this scammer myself.

I'll find them.

"I wish tomorrow wouldn't come."

"Once I open my eyes, I fear the new day in front of me."

"Every day is painful."

"Why do I have to live?"

"Hashtag depression, suicide, the end."
