You must decide.
Whether you'll die with honor
or die by someone else's hand.
If you take another step,
I will cut you down.
Do it.
You said he only looked the same but was a different person.
So why is Park Jung-gil…
Why is he trying to remember me?
He's supposed to be someone who definitely shouldn't know me.
Is that why you're afraid?
Because you killed the person he loved?
I see you can't say you're not.
Sometimes, the truest words…
cut the deepest.
Why did you
entrust me with the RM Team?
So that you can achieve
what you desire.
I was intrigued.
Because it was the first time anyone had been so bold.
EPISODE 10: BREATH
It's good.
Hey, I ordered an iced americano for you. Where have you been?
Choi Jun-woong.
Focus.
Okay.
As you can see,
we have two cases this time.
Cha Yun-jae, Cha Yun-hui.
-They're same-age siblings? -They're twins.
As you can see, the woman, Cha Yun-hui's level is very high.
Cha Yun-jae's level is also higher compared to that of the average person.
-Your drinks are ready. -Okay.
You go, Mr. Lim. I'm going to drill some sense into him.
-Pardon? -Me? Why?
Go on.
What are you talking about all of a sudden?
Can't you read the room?
You think I'd tell you off in a cafe like this?
There's something I need to tell you.
What is it?
So…
Come on, you're starting to scare me.
Just tell me already. Did I do something wrong?
I'm saying this in case you do something wrong.
You need to be more alert for this case than you've ever been.
Why?
This case is a sensitive matter to Mr. Lim.
So take good care of him.
So what is it about?
It's a sexual assault case.
Aren't you going to go inside?
No, I'm not.
The following footage is from a security camera in Yanghyeon-dong, Seoul.
A man is assaulting a woman on the street.
As the woman attempts to flee, the man follows…
The woman in the footage
is Yun-hui.
The assailant was sentenced to two years of jail
and a suspended sentence in the first trial.
That's way too little.
Yun-hui's parents filed an appeal.
So we have to bring their Negative Energy Levels down, no matter what.
So they can appeal.
Because it could be uncomfortable for Cha Yun-hui, I'll handle her.
You two go find Cha Yun-jae.
He's doing a one-person protest right now.
Okay.
Mr. Lim isn't like that just because of the case, right?
Be honest and tell me. That way, I won't make a mistake.
When he was young…
his mother was gang-raped.
Then she took her own life.
This case.
It'll be hard on him.
MYEONGSIN UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL
Ms. Cha Yun-hui.
I'm the prosecutor in charge of your case, Koo Ryeon.
PROSECUTOR KOO RYEON
REVISE SENTENCING GUIDELINES FOR SEXUAL ASSAULT OFFENDERS!
Hello, are you Mr. Cha Yun-jae?
Yes.
I'm Choi Jun-woong, a journalist with the Yeonha-gu local newspaper.
This is my colleague, Lim Ryung-gu.
Hello.
We came because we heard about your story and wanted to help.
REPORTER CHOI JUN-WOONG
I see. Thank you.
It must be very hard.
It should be hard.
Because it's all my fault.
Is this a game to you?
I don't care if we win or lose, so just stop.
Are you not thinking about how things are for me?
It's all my fault, so just stop.
I don't want to see anyone, so don't come either.
I'm never doing another trial. That's that!
You heard me, right?
Just go.
No.
I want to hear more.
Look it up on the Internet, if you're that curious.
It's all up there.
I saw all of that.
Will the law change if I go with a different prosecutor?
I'm not interested in appealing.
Well.
I'm very interested in you, Ms. Cha.
And I believe in hearing things myself and then making a decision.
I'll be waiting here, so feel free to talk when you want to.
It's all my fault.
That she's like this when she used to be so outgoing.
That she only wears oversized men's clothing now
when she used to love getting dressed up.
If only…
I hadn't let her go that day like that.
Then that wouldn't have ever happened…
What is this?
Are you crazy?
Hey.
Don't call me "crazy" when I just saved you.
Aren't you going to get up and go to school?
Aren't you going to get an F if you miss class today?
Hey. I'm already up. Come on!
Hey, I have plans so I'm going to be late tonight, got it?
What? But I have plans tonight too.
Hey!
I told you not to make plans on the same day.
Mom's been calling every day since we moved out.
-What are you going to do? -Fine. I'll take care of it.
So go away already.
Make sure you handle it.
You're so thoughtless, jeez.
So thoughtless.
-Hey! -What!
That little…
Hey, let's drink.
-Cheers. -Cheers.
My college life is ruined.
Only for you.
Why does it have to be here?
Don't act like you know me, talk to me, or look at me. Got it?
Make sure of it.
-Let's go. -Let's go.
That little…
How is it that you twins even like the same bar?
Hey, you and your sister really don't look anything alike.
-Yes, I know. -Yes.
I thought twins all looked similar.
Thanks for the compliment. This is the happiest I've been this year.
I'm always thanking my parents that we're fraternal.
I'm getting stressed out. Let's have another round.
I don't know, it's a bit too fast.
Hey, cheers.
-Come on! -Cheers!
Should we get going now?
Go where?
Hey, Cha Yun-jae.
What?
Why are you acting like you know me? Are you drunk?
When are you going to go home? I'm going now.
Okay. Bye.
I'm scared. Can't you go home with me?
You're scared?
Are you talking about yourself?
I'm scared of you too.
You little…
I'm going for another round. Just take a cab home.
What are you talking about? Are you trying to drink yourself to death?
Let's just go home together.
Please?
Stop making those noises.
You're giving me goosebumps. That sobered me up.
Just go already!
Fine.
You better be quiet when you come home later.
You little…
Does it hurt?
Jeez.
Come on, take her home.
She said she was scared.
Didn't you just see that?
She's freakishly strong!
-Still, it's late. -I think I'm going to throw up.
This tastes good.
Yun-hui, did you get a cab?
Couldn't get one so I'm walking. Going to try again by the main street.
Call me when you get home.
Yun-hui, text us when you get home.
Okay.
Seriously, Cha Yun-jae?
Didn't you tell me to just go…
Be quiet and walk if you don't want to die.
The little…
Help!
Help me!
Call me when you get home.
Hello?
Mom.
You can call me if you're scared.
Hey, are you already asleep?
What, she's still not home?
She said she was scared. Did she sleep at Eun-gyeong's?
I'm so sleepy. Whatever.
I should wash up and go to bed.
Hey, Dad. What are you doing here at this hour?
You bastard. What were you doing?
Where were you while Yun-hui went through all that?
What about Yun-hui?
Yun-hui…
Yun-jae.
What…
What happened to you?
Who…
Who did this?
Just tell me, who did this to you?
Stop it.
We need to get him.
No, Yun-jae.
Mom said she's going to call the police. Please, talk her out of it.
What are you…
You want the guy who did this to you to get off scot-free?
What about me then?
I don't want people to know about this.
I want to let it pass quietly like nothing happened.
Are you crazy?
Will you take responsibility if the word spreads?
This is why I told you not to overdrink and just go home!
You just had to stay out and be reckless!
What?
Why were you walking there at that hour?
Bastards like that went after you because you were there all alone!
This is your fault.
This is your fault!
I told you I was scared. I told you to come with me!
If you had come with me, then none of this would have ever happened to me!
This is your fault!
It's all your fault!
Get it together!
Please have mercy.
Please don't kill me.
Please don't…
If I don't kill you,
what will you do for me?
Please don't kill me.
I'm so sorry. Please don't kill me.
I'm sorry.
You want to live?
Yes.
Then do as I say.
Don't scream.
Don't open your eyes.
When I leave, keep your eyes shut and go only after you count to 1,000.
-Got it? -Yes.
I have your ID.
If you call the police, I'll come after you.
I won't.
Please, don't kill me.
One, two…
three, four…
LADIES' RESTROOM PLEASE USE CLEANLY
Six hundred and eighty.
MEN'S RESTROOM PLEASE USE CLEANLY
Six hundred and eighty-one.
Six hundred and eighty-two.
Six hundred and eighty-three.
I told you to shut your eyes and count to 1,000.
I'm so sorry!
I'm sorry. Please don't kill me!
I'm so sorry!
I'm sorry. Don't kill me, please.
I really won't, so please don't kill me.
I'm sorry.
When the defendant put his hand on your shoulder,
why did you walk with him like nothing was wrong?
I thought it was my brother.
Didn't you tell me to just go…
My brother was at the same bar so I thought he followed me to pull a prank.
WITNESS STAND
So when you realized it wasn't your brother,
why didn't you shake him off immediately?
I realized he wasn't my brother and tried to resist…
Be quiet and walk if you don't want to die.
But he threatened to kill me if I screamed,
so I had no choice but to follow him.
But you didn't actively resist him, right?
Right?
The little…
I did resist.
There were shops nearby open at that hour.
If you had actively resisted, someone would have heard it.
I did resist.
The locks were broken in the bathroom in the mall
that the defendant dragged you to.
I have your ID.
If you call the police, I'll come after you.
-I won't. -The door was open
so you could have easily run away.
What were you doing while your pants, which are difficult to remove,
were being taken off?
If you had screamed loudly, someone would have heard.
But no one heard anything.
You didn't actively resist or make a desperate attempt to run away!
I…
Answer me.
-I… -If you really hadn't liked it,
you would have resisted.
Even if you're a woman,
if you had truly resisted, you couldn't have been assaulted.
Doesn't that mean you agreed to the defendant's actions?
Objection, your honor!
What the defense is saying to the witness is extremely inappropriate.
Sustained.
That will be all.
I heard he only got two years in prison.
Because he was drunk, and it wasn't premeditated.
Because he's young.
Because he's a good student and has a lot of friends.
Because he's in medical school with a bright future ahead of him.
Letters of apology and volunteer work.
He was defended in all sorts of ways. In the end, his sentence was reduced.
Just two years in jail and probation.
He won't be arrested until the verdict of the second trial.
So he's technically innocent now.
Is that why you're doing a one-person protest?
I thought it might help with the appeal.
You know, his parents.
They got him a new apartment so he wouldn't feel down.
An expensive studio apartment with a view of the university campus.
Every morning, he works out at the gym in the building.
He studies at nearby study cafés.
-Come on, get it! -Hey, you block it.
-Get that one. You're dead. -Let's go.
He goes to Internet cafés with his friends
and goes drinking in the evenings.
He orders in food and goes to sleep while looking at his phone.
He even joined a book club a few days ago.
Did you know?
That was something Yun-hui wanted to do.
Yun-hui's in the hospital unable to do anything,
and he's living his life smiling all day.
Why?
I don't know why he's smiling.
I'm going to save Yun-hui.
I'm going to make him pay for his crimes.
That's the only way I can ask Yun-hui to forgive me.
Please don't kill me, I really won't do it.
-I swear! -Cha Yun-hui!
Snap out of it!
Cha Yun-hui!
Just leave me alone!
I told you it was my fault. I was the wrong one!
Everything happened because of me!
If only I hadn't been drinking that day.
If only I hadn't been walking there at that late hour!
If only I hadn't been wearing clothes like that!
It's all my fault, everything!
SEARCH: YANGHYEON-DONG
HONESTLY, SHE SHOULDN'T HAVE BEEN OUT AT THAT HOUR
The unblurred security footage of the sexual assault at Yanghyeon-dong…
Once saw the security footage, I understood the guy.
The Yanghyeon-dong girl's famous now. She even has a forum about her.
I saw the Yanghyeon-dong girl yesterday.
The security footage of the sexual assault…
Then she shouldn't have been drinking.
That's why she shouldn't have gone around drinking and wearing such tight clothes.
What was she thinking, going around at that hour?
Is that why you cut yourself?
Because you thought it was your fault? To punish yourself?
No.
To escape it.
Because no matter how hard I try,
my thoughts keep returning to that memory.
Those memories only stopped
when my skin tore off from biting my nails in fear.
That pain lets me forget the fear, even if for a moment.
Ever since then, I needed to be in pain to live.
It was the only way I had
to run away from that memory and my reality.
This scar is what's left of every painful memory since then.
People say my scar is disgusting,
but compared to the pain I went through?
This scar is nothing.
But you know what?
What you're doing now is hurting me.
So please.
Please just leave me alone!
It'd be better to just die. I've held on long enough.
So please, just look the other way and let it go!
You didn't just "hold on long enough."
You held on remarkably well.
And what happened
isn't your fault.
You didn't do anything wrong.
You…
are a victim
who has survived that painful time without breaking.
The world is still
on the side of the victim.
As am I, of course.
I hope you know that.
I'll come again.
-Excuse me. -Yes?
Could you redo the bandage on Cha Yun-hui's wrist?
It's bleeding through.
Yes, okay.
Her condition is worse than I thought.
She's refusing everything and blaming herself.
I think the most important thing is to get her out of that mindset.
What about Yun-jae?
It's the same with him too.
He feels especially guilty about saying those harsh things to her at the hospital.
The incident is one thing, but they hurt each other badly too,
when it has been hard enough for both of them already.
We have some time before the appeal, so we'll have to try.
Mr. Cha's preparing really hard for the appeal too.
There's not only the one-person protest,
but also he's been investigating everything the perpetrator has been doing.
Though the bigger problem is that the bad guy is doing great.
What about Mr. Lim? Is he okay?
Yes, well, so far.
The world is still
on the side of the victim.
As am I, of course.
I'll come again.
Remember when the country was in an uproar over the incident
that happened at Yanghyeon-dong?
Later, people were questioning if what the girl said was true.
They were saying things like how the guy was a med student,
so why would he grab a woman off the street and rape her?
It seems that all that has died down.
But we can still see the girl's brother doing a one-person protest
in front of the National Assembly Building…
First off, if he's a med student, that means he's smart.
He can retake the tests and apply somewhere else.
He can even take the medical boards.
That's why the girl's brother is protesting every day
in front of the National Assembly Building to stop that from happening.
CHA YUN-HUI, AGE 23 STUDENT AT SEOHAN UNIVERSITY
Ms. Koo. Ms. Cha is…
I'll go to Yun-hui. You go to Yun-jae. Take Mr. Lim with you.
Okay.
CHA YUN-HUI, AGE 23 STUDENT AT SEOHAN UNIVERSITY
Why are you here?
Why's your arm like that?
What are you doing?
I should be asking you the same thing!
Do you want to tell the whole world that your sister is a sexual assault victim?
It's not like that.
We can't just leave him like that. We have to do something!
I told you I don't need that. I told you to stop it!
Okay. Calm down. You're bleeding.
What, this?
My heart's been torn up thousands of times already.
You ruined everything, just when I barely managed to forget.
Do you have to see it with your eyes to know that I'm hurting?
Then you'll stop when you see me die, right?
-It's not like that. -How are you different from that bastard?
No, you're worse than he is.
Just please, get out of my sight!
Let's just all die instead!
Okay, I'm sorry.
I'll leave…
so please go to the hospital right now.
You're bleeding a lot.
She's not in her hospital room.
What about Yun-jae?
He's not here either.
Where is he?
The apartment is the only place they could have gone.
Go there first.
CHA YUN-HUI, AGE 23 STUDENT AT SEOHAN UNIVERSITY
Hurry!
What are you doing? Put down the knife!
Don't any come closer, I'll cut myself!
Calm down.
We'll help you in any way we can, okay?
How are you going to help?
They appeal and protest saying it's for me.
How is it for me exactly?
Why do I have to be exposed in front of people again?
Your parents and Yun-jae started it to help you.
That's funny.
My family was the first to blame me.
So why did you go around at night like an idiot!
Dad.
What are you crying about? Crying won't solve anything.
Mom.
They all blamed me.
Even Yun-jae, my best friend and my brother.
This is why I told you not to overdrink and just go home!
You just had to stay out and be reckless!
That wasn't what I wanted to hear.
Even the last person I could depend on disappeared.
That's what hurt me most of all!
But now they say they're doing this for me?
How am I supposed to understand that? Why should I understand that?
Go! If you come any closer, I'll really cut myself!
CHA YUN-JAE, AGE 23 STUDENT AT SEOHAN UNIVERSITY
Ms. Koo.
Mr. Cha seems to be in danger.
Go find Yun-jae.
I'll take care of things here.
Please, calm down.
No.
This can only end with me dying.
Those trials and those one-person protests couldn't solve anything.
I've held on long enough.
So please just leave me alone!
Cha Yun-hui.
Cutting yourself like that will only hurt. People don't die that easily.
Don't pretend like you know when you haven't gone through it yourself.
Yes.
I don't know what you went through.
But…
I know a lot about doing that.
Do you know what happens when you cut your wrist
intending to kill yourself?
The hot blood runs from your wound,
and you can feel your heart beating like crazy
as if it's there at your wrist.
You cut yourself
because you didn't have anything left in this world that you care about,
but you find yourself lingering,
realizing the regrets hiding behind the pain.
I thought everything was my fault.
Because I felt guilty for even being alive.
Ryeon.
Why would you choose to…
How could you go before your father?
Ever since that day,
I've been constantly living in regret,
for a very, very long time.
So please, don't keep blaming yourself
for what happened that day.
You are the victim.
Not the perpetrator.
He's the one
who hurt you unilaterally.
No one can or should blame you.
Even if…
it's yourself.
Can someone
with a scar as ugly as this
really live a proper life?
It's not ugly.
It's proof…
of how desperately you wanted to live.
In order to live.
Because you wanted to live.
So live, Yun-hui.
I want to live.
I wanted to live.
Our officers went to see Yun-jae before.
He's apparently blaming himself
for everything that happened that day.
You and Yun-jae
care for each other more than anyone else.
You're just a bit out of sync.
How are you different from that bastard?
No, you're worse than he is.
Just please, get out of my sight!
Let's just all die instead!
Ma'am, what do I do?
Yun-jae.
Please, find Yun-jae.
What are you talking about?
I…
I told Yun-jae to die.
That he's just like the bastard.
To get out of my sight.
I said it because I was angry.
I didn't mean it. What should I do?
Mr. Lim, where are we going?
To Tak Nam-il's house.
But I thought we were looking for Mr. Cha.
If I were him, I would have killed this bastard first.
It says Building 105 here, but this is Building 104.
We need to look for Mr. Cha…
Damn it.
REVISE SENTENCING GUIDELINES FOR SEXUAL ASSAULT OFFENDERS!
This is so funny.
You're actually laughing.
I have heard you were living your life completely unaffected, laughing all day.
But you actually are laughing.
What, who are you?
How did you get in?
Damn it.
Hey.
I see.
Now I know who you are.
You were hired by the brother of the bitch I messed up, right?
You bastard!
There's no need.
Don't get blood on your hands.
Because I'm going to kill this bastard.
Please.
What? You want to become a news sensation like his sister?
Mr…
Mr. Lim.
Wait, Mr. Lim!
Damn it.
-Why are you not stopping him? -Why would I?
The bastard deserves to die.
Mr. Cha Yun-jae!
This isn't the time for you to be doing this.
I know.
That I deserve to die too. That I'm the same as that bastard!
Why are you the same as that bastard?
I know you want to kill him,
but this isn't a problem that can be solved like that.
-You know that too! -No.
It'll only end when that thing dies.
That's the only way Yun-hui and I can be happy.
Okay.
Then kill him
and you die too.
Wasn't that the plan?
But…
if I were you.
I wouldn't do that.
I would go to Ms. Cha.
I don't deserve to do that.
Because it's all my fault.
Damn it, if it's your fault…
If it's your fault, then go and tell her you're sorry.
Even if she pushes you away!
Even if she refuses your apology, tell her that you are sorry.
You think everything will be fixed if you disappear?
What about the people who are left?
Who do you think is suffering the most right now?
Think of how much pain Ms. Cha must have been in all this time, all by herself.
A one-person protest.
Revenge.
Instead of doing those things,
stay by her side.
Go and tell her
how glad you are that she lived, that she held on.
Please.
I could die
in place of my precious sister…
if I have to.
But I was scared.
That she would hate me.
That she would resent me. That's why…
So hurry up and go be by her side. Right now.
Mr. Lim!
No Reaper may intervene in human affairs.
-Did you forget that? -Get out of my way.
-Mr. Lim, please! -Stop it.
Why?
No one protected
either Ms. Cha or Mr. Cha.
That's not your job.
Who are you, people?
Who are you to fight over me?
You think you're some caped crusaders of justice?
You think you guys are some sort of heroes?
Why don't you keep on trying, damn it.
Let's see who dies first, me or that bitch.
Mr. Lim.
Get it together, Mr. Lim. You can't do this, not like this.
Bastards like this need to be put on trial
and receive their due punishment.
I'm sorry.
You're all being ridiculous.
Wearing those clothes and drinking…
it's all to flirt and get a rise out of men.
She's the one who got me all excited first,
-so why's she suddenly blaming me-- -What?
You know.
You're pretty too.
As pretty as that bitch.
This bastard…
You really are hopeless.
I'm going to erase your memory anyway,
but let me hit you, just this once.
COURT
Sexual assault is the only crime
where people say that the victim is in the wrong too.
But why
do assailants think it's okay to do such a thing?
Because she was wearing revealing clothes? Because it was night?
Because it was somewhere deserted? Because he'd been drinking?
If that's the case, every one of you here will become the target of these crimes
and they will be justified.
There is no reason that could justify a crime.
Not even if
he is in his 20s with his life ahead of him.
Not even if he's a medical student with a bright future.
A momentary mistake?
I wonder if you could say that if your own child had been the victim.
-She's right. -That's true.
Sexual assault…
is the murder of the soul.
From now on, assailants should receive punishments as criminals,
regardless of their excuses.
That is why
I request the following sentence.
The average life expectancy in Korea is 83,3 years.
Taking away 23 years for the age of the victim, leaving 60 years.
A total of 138 related videos and 9,826 related online comments,
each converted into one year.
I request that the defendant, the murderer Tak Nam-il,
be sentenced to 10,024 years in prison.
Yes!
Quiet!
Order in the court.
Thank you, Yun-jae.
For persuading me to come to the trial.
Actually, the prosecutor asked me to.
I see.
Still, thank you.
I'm glad I came.
Thank you for surviving, and for holding on, Yun-hui.
I should have told you that first,
but I only hurt you.
It couldn't be helped. We were both blaming ourselves.
I turned it on you because my own pain was so immense,
when it wasn't even your fault.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry too.
From now on, don't avoid the world anymore.
Don't run away and don't hide.
I'll be with you by your side.
Okay.
I'm glad things worked out with Ms. Cha and Mr. Cha.
It won't be easy,
but they'll support each other and overcome this.
Mr. Lim's going to be okay, right?
He should be.
I've never seen him like that.
Speaking of which, I should give him a call.
He's an adult. He'll get through it.
Don't worry about it.
Are you kidding me?
Fifteen years? The crazy bastards.
Hey! Do you know who I am?
Do you think my father won't make you people pay for this?
I'm going to appeal and get my revenge on all of you, damn it!
-Hey, be quiet. -You'll pay for this. What's your name?
Guard, what's your name? Hey, you bastard!
Answer me! Tell me your name, damn it!
Guard, answer me!
You bastards, lecturing me when you can't even drive?
Open the door.
Damn it!
What?
Wasn't there someone here?
Maybe he fell under the bridge.
Hurry up and look for him.
What are they doing?
They take all that tax money, but look at the state of this bus, jeez.
Who the hell are you?
Can anyone just get on like this?
Tak Nam-il, born 3:44 a.m, on September 27th, 1997.
This life has been collected.
What's all this now?
You'll die from a heart attack, ten minutes from now.
I cannot change your lifespan,
but you won't mind if I change the way you die, right?
It's a shame to let someone like you die so easily.
Fire!
Guard. There's a fire!
Guard. Fire! There's a fire!
Yell all you want.
They won't be able to hear it.
Open the door.
Help me!
Put the fire out!
Open the door, damn it.
Open it. Please.
Save me.
The legs that chased her.
The arms that held her down.
The mouth that laughed, the eyes that gazed.
Limb by limb, you'll be engulfed by the flames of Hell.
It will be extremely painful.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. Okay?
I'm sorry!

Hey.
-You call that a drawing? -You're really asking for it.
Just keep studying.
Okay.
What is it?
Mother.
Yeong-sik and Chang-bok keep making fun of me.
What did they say that has you crying so sorrowfully?
They keep making fun of my name, saying it's weird.
They said it's like a dog's…
They sure don't know anything at all.
Your name is a wonderful one.
Really?
Of course.
A noble monk of great virtue chose it.
Come here.
Ryung as in "high."
And gu as in "to rescue."
It means someone who will save many from a high place.
You know how to write too, Mother?
Not all the letters, but I know enough to teach my son.
Mother, there's so much you know, and there's nothing you can't do.
Really? Do you really think so?
Yes.
I heard that Mr. Lim killed someone
while he was still among the Land of the Living.
Do you know what kinds of rumors are going around at the company right now?
What you heard is true.
I escorted Ryung-gu because he committed murder.
Ms. Koo, please tell me. What exactly happened to Mr. Lim?
Why is he hurting so much like that?
It's been a while, Geum-hong.
I am no longer a kisaeng.
When it comes to a cloth that has been sullied,
the stain will never go away no matter how hard you try to wash it out.
As a woman, I no longer wish to add to my own shortcomings.
It seems as though that Geum-hong has forgotten her true self.
If only those bastards didn't do that terrible thing,
then both you and Yu-hwa…
What terrible thing?
