"EPISODE 5"

It's called Remington's disease.

Remington's?

There's a 50% chance of inheriting it.

Your body slowly stiffens over time, and your memory starts to fade.

In some cases, total memory loss.

Remington's.

Is that what you've been trying to hide?

Remington's.

Is that what you've been trying to hide?

She was amazing.

- She certainly was. - Hey, look.

Seeum!

Well, you must be exhausted.

Are you feeling better?

- I'm fine. - Honey, you were great.

That was an incredible performance.

Shouldn't we have a party or something?

Maybe some champagne?

Let's do it next time.

- Let's talk soon, Dad. - Hey, what's going on?

- Seeum. - Soon.

Oh. Wait, Seeum…

At least take the flowers with you.

What's the rush?

Something must be wrong.

How did you find out?

Tell me.

You're not even going to lie?

What is it you want?

I heard getting tested will tell you whether or not you'll get it.

Bring me the test results.

You don't want to get tested, do you?

That's why you tried so hard to get out of the ER when you woke up.

You refused to take a blood test.

You're avoiding it.

- It's not your problem. - Take the test.

You have a 50% chance of inheriting it. That's a pretty high risk.

You must know from your research.

As your memory fades, you start seeing things.

You can't control your own body.

There's no prevention or cure.

Would knowing in advance make a difference?

And if I knew? How would I spend the rest of my life?

- But still-- - I'd rather not know.

Hope is the only thing keeping me going.

So keep this to yourself.

WOO YEONGSEON

Are you Bae Junghwa's doctor?

Yes, I am. Can I help you?

How do you plan to deal with this?

A patient's information was leaked.

Excuse me?

What are you--

The only way someone could find out I could have Remington's

is through this hospital.

Because I've never once mentioned that disease!

And obviously, I've never been tested!

Okay, first,

I need you to calm down. I'll find out what happened--

Don't you think it's too late for that?

You'd better watch your step.

If this happens one more time,

I'll make sure you never wear that white coat again.

Seeu…

All right.

Next time,

I'll make sure to bring Seeum with me.

Seeu…

Honey.

- Oh! Hey, you're both here! -

- Congratulations, you did a great job. - You brought me flowers?

Thank you.

- You were wonderful. - Thanks.

Way to go, Mom.

Mom.

- -

Mom!

Mom...

What's wrong? There's no one there.

- Mom. - You're a monster.

- A monster. - What?

Die.

Die!

Die.

- -

Die!

You're a monster!

Die!

Die.

Please die.

A celebratory drink?

You're the new art director

of the Yeonsung International Music Festival.

And your new piece is a big hit.

Let's go out for drinks.

It's not confirmed yet.

Getting a call from the chairman himself means you got it.

Man, you're on a roll.

But…

will you be working for the festival alongside Seeum?

I'm not sure yet.

Anyway, let's set a date soon.

All right, sounds good!

See you.

TO CHA SEEUM AND KIM PHIL, CONGRATS ON YOUR FIRST CONCERT IN KOREA

Yes?

Hello.

It looks like someone tampered

with the brakes on Ms. Lee Ajin's car.

So,

someone intentionally did that to Ajin…

Can you tell us where you were on the day of the incident?

WARD

Were you trying to kill her? Were you?

I didn't mean to cause an accident.

You think I believe that?

I can't believe you.

You shouldn't skip meals.

I didn't expect to see you again.

I heard what actually happened that day.

And?

I'm sorry.

In spite of everything, you want to be the good guy.

Seeum…

is the perpetrator.

- What? - Who else could it be?

Who else would want to harm me and my baby?

No.

It can't be her.

Are you sure?

She'd never do something like that.

You trust her completely?

No matter what?

I'm having this baby, and I'll make sure

nothing happens to him.

And you don't deserve

to be a father.

- Ajin. - Just leave.
