W BY OH SEONG-MOO
With sales totaling ten million copies,
W is Korea's top webtoon series.
The main character, Kang Chul,
learns from Oh Yeon-joo that he is a webtoon character.
They realize their feelings for each other
and dream of a new, happy life together.
I'll put a bullet in her head.
I almost died.
The real killer appears and threatens Chul by saying he'd kill Yeon-joo.
I've waited ten years
for him to find me.
So how can it end?
How can this be the end?
Because of the existence of the killer and Yeon-joo,
other characters in W lose their purposes
and start to disappear.
Make everything that happened two months ago when we first met
to this moment a dream.
Forget me. Take care.
Chul joins forces with Seong-moo
and turns back time to two months before he met Yeon-joo
in order to protect Yeon-joo and the world of W.
Chul, how are you?
Are you happy these days?
What a pretty ring.
He completely forgot about me.
If it's for your daughter, you can do it this time. Give W a happy ending.
I plan to end W with a happy ending.
We must come up with a face that Chul can believe.
He is the only person Chul will accept as the real killer.
I know him. He stabbed me on the roof.
The killer from ten years prior was created and was about to be caught.
Han Cheol-ho, who framed Chul as the killer,
was also about to be caught.
You asshole!
Before all of that happened...
Where is Kang Chul?
...the killer shows up with Seong-moo's face
and sends Chul's plans down the drain.
I'm going to pick up some snacks. Do you want pork trotters?
You like pork trotters.
Yeah.
I'll be right back.
Su-bong!
I WON'T BE EATEN UP. I WILL EAT HIM UP INSTEAD.
You finally kept your promise.
So this was my face?
Yes.
This is me.
I was you.
This face suits me very well.
You've been wanting to kill Chul, too.
Just as I have.
Let's stop this now!
That's when I realized
you and I...
share one soul.
Maybe that's why.
I think this face is perfect.
Let me go!
I gave you an identity.
I kept my word!
You're right. You kept your word.
But you're trying to kill me now.
You're working with Chul to kill me.
That's a betrayal.
All I did was follow your orders, but now...
you are me, and I am you.
You shall follow my orders from now on!
I'm back, Mr. Oh!
Mr. Oh?
Have some pork trotters.
Mr. Oh, I bought some pork trotters.
Is he sleeping?
Sir?
Is that you, Su-bong?
It's me, Su-bong.
Su-bong.
SU-BONG
My face disappeared.
Su-bong.
Help me, Su-bong.
He took my face.
Where did my face go?
Su-bong.
Su-bong?
Sit down.
Draw me a gun. A nice one.
Bullets, too. Plenty of them.
More. Draw more bullets!
I'm going to kill many people.
Please take a close look at this picture.
This is the prime suspect of the assault on Mr. Kang Chul
at the Seoul Prime Hotel on May 22nd.
On the day of the assault, he was wearing a gray hooded jacket,
an olive green T-shirt, and navy trousers.
He wears glasses and has a gray beard.
He seems to be around 175cm tall.
If you have seen him or know his whereabouts--
-What happened? -What happened?
-What's going on? -What was that?
-Did he collapse? -Did he collapse?
What's wrong with him?
-What's going on? -We're not sure.
-Did he collapse? -Please wait.
-What is this? -What's going on?
-What happened? -Go and check.
Who are you?
Request assistance.
Chul.
Are you there?
Can you hear me?
I had to come because you were looking so desperately for me.
I wanted to show you my face.
You suffered a lot because I didn't appear for ten years, didn't you?
It was painful for me, too.
I wanted to appear in front of you, but I had no means to.
This is me.
How's my face?
I love it so much.
I'll see you often.
Call an ambulance!
Help me.
The police are trying to find out where he fled to,
but they haven't been able to track him down yet.
Breaking news.
The face of the shooting suspect has been released.
The man is presumed to be in his 60s, and his identity is still unknown.
The police launched a manhunt for the suspect.
-The suspect... -What is this?
Why did Dad change the story again?
-Move! -Especially to something this horrible.
What is he trying to do?
What about me?
Why am I here again?
Chul doesn't even recognize me now.
There was a false report that you were badly injured.
Give them an interview.
You can do it in the lobby.
-Okay. -Chul.
-I got a call from the police. -Did they find him?
No. It was a bad tip.
They have no idea how he got in or out.
No camera caught him going in and out of the set.
That was a false report.
I wasn't there, and I wasn't injured at all.
Have you seen the video message that the killer sent?
Yes, I have.
It was clearly addressed to you.
What did he mean by "ten years ago"?
Let me ask you that.
What do you think it means?
It sounds like he's saying
he's the killer who murdered your family ten years ago.
Do you think it's the same person?
He said it himself.
-He said he came back after ten years. -If he's really the killer,
that means the prosecutors' office was wrong
and falsely accused you as the killer.
This isn't the right time for that,
but someone will definitely have to take responsibility for that matter.
He missed the killer and accused the victim as the murderer,
and now the killer has committed a mass murder.
Are you talking about Congressman Han Cheol-ho?
Even if I don't say his name, everyone knows whom I mean.
And so does he.
That crazy psychopath bastard.
Sir, wouldn't it be better for you to visit the crime scene now?
Before the public opinion get worse...
Excuse me. Who are you?
Pardon?
That's not our hospital's gown.
-Why are you here? -I took my sister's gown by mistake.
She's also a doctor at another hospital.
You can move him now. Please give him antibiotics,
and notify an orthopedic surgeon.
SAFETY CONTROL AREA
Excuse me?
STAFF ONLY
What's going on here?
What should I do?
Where do I go?
PLEASE WATCH THE PATIENT IN ROOM 1013 WHO KEEPS DRINKING SOJU
Why am I panicking?
He doesn't even recognize me.
Yeon-joo.
Is a doctor allowed to drink alcohol in the hospital?
Isn't everyone on emergency call today?
They have enough doctors working right now.
There are enough doctors in the emergency room as well.
Plus, I'm not on call.
May I have a sip?
I'm desperate for some drink right now.
That feels better.
You can finish it.
Thank you.
Why do you keep looking at me like that?
It's been bothering me.
Why do you keep looking at me like that?
You look like someone.
I do? Like whom?
My husband.
Is that your wedding ring? No wonder.
Hello?
I'm on the roof.
Mr. Son's surgery is over.
Okay, I'll come down.
Thank you for the drink.
Seok-beom, what time is it?
It's been 12 hours since the incident.
-Turn down the volume. -The suspect is still at large.
Two additional people died overnight.
As of now, 10 people died and 13 were injured.
Three of the injured people are in critical condition.
President Yoon Seok-jun
-expressed his condolences... -Who are you?
-He considers the event... -Why are you sleeping here?
-as an act of terrorism and will... -I must have come into the wrong room.
What is this?
Why am I still here?
What's happening here? Why am I still here?
We found no fingerprints or hair. We couldn't find a thing.
How is this possible? I just can't understand.
There should be some traces of him on the surveillance camera.
-I don't understand. -That day.
The suspect of the shooting, which left more than 20 people injured,
is still on the run.
The police say there's no recording of the suspect
entering or leaving the scene of the crime,
which is causing difficulties in the investigation.
-And the day after that. -Kang Chul...
SIDE DISHES ARE SELF-SERVICE
Even the day after that,
I still couldn't go back home.
Although I no longer mean anything
to the main character...
Although I'm simply
an extra in this webtoon...
BLACK GARLIC
At 10 a.m. this morning, a funeral was held at the W Office
for the ten shooting victims.
Among those in attendance were families of the victims, the Prime Minister,
-the Chief Prosecutor... -Hey.
Who are you?
I asked who you are.
You keep coming in here. Just who are you?
You are not from our department.
Is that my lab coat?
Hey!
I'm hungry.
Isn't this So-hee's place? I saw it often in the book.
Do you know the code?
DAEBAK BANK
I'm sorry.
I really don't want to do this.
I'll borrow this for a short while.
No, you don't need to come.
I'll take it.
What's the code?
-What is it? -Oh, no!
I'm inside.
It's on the table?
Okay.
I found it. I'll come now.
You...
Oh Yeon-joo?
Not only did the government not repay you for your hard work,
I can't believe this happened to you. I am very sorry.
It's okay.
Don't say that.
I hope the killer is caught soon.
-We haven't solved the case, -Do you know this girl?
yet we're having the funeral. I don't know how to face the families.
I've never seen her before. Who is she?
The homeowner doesn't know you.
How do you know the code?
Hey, Yeon-joo.
If you don't explain yourself, I'm calling the police.
Tell me. Why did you come here?
Why are you here?
I was hungry.
What?
I was too hungry.
I didn't eat for three days.
That doesn't make sense.
If you're hungry, you can buy food. Why did you come here?
I don't have any money.
How can you not have any money? You're a doctor.
I'm not a doctor.
I'm not a doctor there. You just assumed.
If you're not a doctor,
why were you in the ER that day?
She's not just a thief.
-Call the police. -Yes, sir.
You know how things are these days, right?
I need to check everything that's suspicious, no matter how minor.
The police are coming, so make your statement at the station.
Okay.
You don't mind going to jail?
It's better there. They feed you,
and you can sleep there.
You don't even know what a jail is like.
-You must think it's like a hotel-- -I know. I've been there before.
Just turn me over to the police.
But...
before they get here, can't I eat some instant ramen?
The water is boiling.
I'm just really hungry, that's why.
What's your name?
-Oh Yeon-joo. -What's your real name?
Oh Yeon-joo.
Where do you live? What's your address?
I don't have one.
-You don't have a family? -No.
You said you were married.
You said your husband looks like me.
-Do you need kimchi? -Yes, please.
Ouch, it's hot!
That hurts!
Of course, it does.
Hold on.
It'll hurt for a few days.
I'm fine.
Stay still.
I'm fine. Please stop.
You just said it hurts.
I said stop it.
Why are you touching me? You're making it hard for me to move on.
I tried my best not to run into you.
I was homeless for over a week,
and I even stole. But still, I never asked you for money.
I wanted to stay out of your life.
So why did you show up here, being all nice and stuff?
It's so annoying!
Why are you getting angry?
Yes, I'm married.
This is my wedding ring,
but I don't have a husband.
That's why I have no one to come help me.
How can you not have a husband when you're married?
He disappeared!
He's not dead, and we aren't divorced.
He just disappeared.
We didn't even do much.
We only did four sweet things.
He disappeared after doing those four little things.
He was gone after only a day.
Isn't it funny?
He never even...
told me that he loved me.
I was the only one that said it.
Then he disappeared.
This is so unfair.
But I tried to forget him since he said it would be a happy ending.
How is this a happy ending?
I don't know why we bothered breaking up.
I don't know why I'm here when he doesn't even recognize me.
I want to go home, but I don't know how.
I don't know anyone here, and I don't have money!
Am I too dumb for this?
I don't understand a word you're saying.
I don't expect you to. Just leave me alone.
Mr. Kang, they're here.
Thank you.
Why didn't you turn me over?
You seem to prefer the police over me,
so I feel like I'd be missing out if I gave you to them.
I don't have anything. I'm just a petty thief.
-Let's go. -Yes, sir.
Why are you doing this to me?
Don't take an interest in me.
That's a strange choice of words.
I'm not interested. I'm suspicious.
MR. SON
Hello, Mr. Son?
Where are you?
I'm going to the office to talk to the victims' families about consolation.
Can you come by here before you go?
Okay, I will.
-Let's stop by Sungjin Medical Center. -Okay.
It's been a week since the incident,
but the killer is still at large.
About 80% of the public believe
that he is the same killer who murdered Kang Chul's family in 2006.
Moreover, over 70% think
that Congressman Han Cheol-ho should be held responsible for this incident
since he had named Kang as the killer ten years ago.
This incident is expected to have a major effect on his presidential election.
The killer admitted it himself. It's over now.
No.
That's not what he meant.
These two cases are unrelated.
-They have no evidence that-- -Look here.
Ten people were shot to death.
It's game over now.
You need to resign.
Are you telling me to step down
after getting this far?
Don't drag everyone down with you.
You are on your own now.
RESTRICTED NUMBER
Hello.
Is this Mr. Han Cheol-ho?
-Who is this? -Don't you know me?
I'm the most famous person in the nation right now.
Who are you?
I called to console you.
You must want to die right now because of me.
RECORD
-You... -That's right. It's me.
Do you know what will happen to you if I get caught?
I do.
You will kill me.
You will order gangsters to disguise it as a suicide.
You will make up a fake suicide note to dump it on Chul as well.
You crazy asshole. Who do you think you're talking to?
Who is it, sir?
Weren't you just thinking that?
You were going to do that if I got caught.
I'm right.
You will kill me to become president.
Just like you requested the death sentence for Chul
ten years ago because you wanted to be a politician.
I know it all.
Shall I tell you what will happen to the both of us from now on?
We're playing second fiddle for Chul's happy ending.
We will kill each other.
But I don't think
there's a need for us to do that.
For whose benefit?
I'll make you the next president.
What?
I'll help you.
I know a lot of things about Chul.
-Stay here and watch her. -Yes, sir.
They haven't caught the killer yet?
Yes.
I heard they haven't found any evidence.
It's true.
Let's write some lines. Write this down.
First...
is Chul's line.
CHUL
"It's none of your business, Dad. Who do you think you are?"
IT'S NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS, DAD
Chul's father now.
"How dare you get drunk and give me an attitude?
You little brat!"
HOW DARE YOU GET DRUNK
Yes?
Hello.
My goodness, Chul. It's good to see you.
Honey, Chul's here.
You must be tired. Have you eaten lunch?
-I have. -Do you mind...
giving us some privacy?
-What? -Don't let anyone in.
Oh, okay.
-Grab a drink from the fridge. -Okay.
-Did something happen? -Yes.
Something happened.
On the day of the incident,
I received an e-mail.
But given what happened,
I couldn't check it until just now.
Someone had sent me a tip.
A tip? About the killer?
Yeah.
But not from this incident,
but from ten years ago.
It's an audio file.
You should hear it.
AUDIO FILE
It's none of your business, Dad. Who do you think you are?
How dare you get drunk and give me an attitude? You little brat!
What is this?
I said I won't stand it if you hit me again.
Honey, please stop! Chul, stop it.
You punk. Get out and never come back.
I don't need a son like you!
I can't believe I've raised him--
Honey!
What...
-What is this? -That's what I want to ask you.
What is this?
I said I won't stand it if you hit me again.
Honey, please stop! Chul, stop it.
You punk. Get out and never come back.
I don't need a son like you!
I can't believe I've raised him--
Honey!
Mr. Kang.
I mean, Chul.
From that day until now,
I've never once had any doubt of your innocence.
But what's this?
You said you didn't go back home that day,
but what's this?
It's fake.
-Fake? -It is.
It doesn't make sense. I never had this conversation.
How could someone fake this?
I still remember your parents' voices.
How can anyone fabricate voices of people who died ten years ago?
If you're hiding anything,
tell me.
What if you can't remember because you were drunk?
Are you...
suspecting me right now?
I want to know the truth.
Chul.
Right now,
I'm very scared.
Are you sure...
you're really innocent?
Who sent this?
This is all fabricated.
I don't know how they got the voices--
Sir?
Sir!
-What happened? -What's going on?
-Honey! -What is this?
Honey.
What are you doing, Mr. Kang?
-Move out of the way. -Calm down.
Please send support! There's been a murder!
The suspect is in the building!
Honey!
There's been a shooting.
Mr. Kang, stop right there!
Mr. Kang!
What's going on?
Freeze! If you don't, we'll shoot!
-Mr. Kang. -Out of the way.
Get out!
Mr. Kang!
What's going on? Where are you going?
CALL SEO DO-YOON
-Hello? -What happened?
-What are you-- -It's a setup.
What do you mean?
The police won't be able to solve it, so I ran away.
I'll call you later.
Are you hurt? Where are you hurt?
I'll drop you off somewhere, so go wherever you need to.
Aren't you hurt?
-Stop the car. Hurry. -I don't have time for that.
Stop the car. I'll drive.
Stop the car. Otherwise, both of us will die!
Sit in the back.
Go where you need to go.
I'm being chased by the police.
I'm worse than a thief like you.
Being with me won't be good for you.
And go where? I have nowhere to go.
I have nowhere to go. I don't know anyone either.
Get out.
Why were you hurt?
Give me your wallet.
I have to buy medical supplies, and I have no money.
PHARMACY
Welcome.
Hello.
We have another shocking news.
May I get some gauze, bandage,
antiseptic, and painkillers?
-Wait one moment. -He died around 6 p.m.
Mr. Son was shot during a shooting at W
and was being treated at the hospital
when he was shot by Kang Chul.
-Kang is on the run at the moment. -Did you hear that? How shocking.
Kang Chul killed someone and fled.
I don't believe that.
Do you really think Kang Chul would do that?
Why would he flee then?
He fled because he did kill him.
Finally, all the weird happenings made sense to me.
Dad and Chul's plan to get rid of the real killer
had failed.
He was shot and killed.
Right after the incident,
Kang Chul avoided police capture
-and fled the scene with a gun. -What's this?
-We're now in a state of emergency. -It's very strange.
-Why would Kang Chul shoot Son? -What on earth is going on?
-Go and find out. -Yes, sir.
Hi, Mr. Park, I was about to call you.
What happened? Why did Kang Chul do that?
I found out why Kang Chul killed Son Hyeon-seok.
I thought I should let you know first.
Why did he kill him?
Kang Chul really did kill his father.
He was really the killer.
-We have evidence to prove it. -Evidence?
You were right.
You have my respect, sir.
Tell me in detail.
Is that so?
As of now,
we're in a world controlled by the real killer.
It's the world where the villain rules.
Is there a place you can hide?
Where should I go?
Wake up.
Can you get up?
Don't lift your head. You'll get caught on the camera.
Did we...
know each other?
Do you...
know me?
We're here. Let's get off.
Just a little more. We're almost there.
Hang in there.
Why are you crying?
What is it?
Am I dying?
You're not dying.
And I'm not crying.
Where are we?
In a hotel.
I tried to pick an inconspicuous one.
But I'm still worried.
You were framed, right?
Of something absurd?
That's why you ran, right?
I'll try to find out
what happened and how you can solve it.
I think something serious has happened.
I just don't know what it is yet.
It's too dangerous to stay here for long.
And you need more medical supplies.
That's why...
I have to get out of here.
Will you be okay alone?
-Look, Yeon-joo. -Hang in there and wait for me.
I don't understand
anything you just said.
What are you talking about?
How can you help me?
Because I'm one of those people
who want your life to have a happy ending.
So our breakup would not be in vain.
Yeon-joo.
Who...
are you?
I have to get out of here.
So...
I really hope this works again.
TO BE CONTINUED
Do you know what happened to Kang Chul?
I'm trying to make it a dream again like last time.
How about going further back?
Let's make it a dream he had before the killer had appeared.
Are you Oh Yeon-joo?
The main character isn't the only one who can pull me in.
-He must have died. -What's your relationship to Mr. Kang?
I'm just curious whether or not he's alive.
Mr. Kang has been looking for you.
He is...
alive?
