EP.27 Dead End
[This episode is told from the author's perspective.]
In the call from Jimin's number, Jimin's voice could not be heard, and Jungkook's voice telling him to end it pierced into Yoongi's ears.
민윤기
"That crazy guy..."
전정국
"So, why did you do that?"
전정국
"Stick to the person who will do it."
민윤기
"Who will be?"
민윤기
"Huh, you're funny."
전정국
"Haa, is this something that can't be explained in words?"
민윤기
"You know very well that people get less tired when their head works well, not their body."
전정국
"What does that mean?"
민윤기
"Well, just one day will be enough."
전정국
"day?"
전정국
"I can't afford to waste that much time."
민윤기
"I know, you know where I am now."
민윤기
"What should I do to get Park Jimin to touch me?"
전정국
"I know very well."
민윤기
"Even so, the heroine doesn't remember you two."
전정국
"What should I do? Just feed him the medicine Seok Jin-hyung made."
민윤기
"I tried it, but it didn't work."
전정국
"yes?"
민윤기
"Now I can understand."
민윤기
"Park Jimin kept telling me not to feed him, so I held back."
민윤기
"I fed it to Yeoju while I was getting ready to go out today."
전정국
"..."
민윤기
"It must be quite late."
전정국
"...under"
민윤기
"It's all because of betrayal and treachery."
민윤기
"Of course, betrayal"
민윤기
"It started with Seok Jin-hyung"
전정국
"What are you talking about?"
전정국
"Park Jimin was the one who betrayed me first!!"
전정국
"I'll tell you after I know for sure..."
민윤기
"I remember working at the hospital."
민윤기
"Seokjin contacted Jimin that day."
민윤기
"I didn't want to answer, but my conscience pricked me, so Jimin took the call."
민윤기
"For the time being, I will take care of the woman."
민윤기
"But it's a secret from Jeon Jungkook and Kim Taehyung."
전정국
"H, yes?"
민윤기
"Seok Jin-hyung said he would allow it if I just reported the female protagonist's condition every time."
민윤기
"And until the day the medicine is made and delivered..."
전정국
"...where did it all go wrong?"
민윤기
"Think about it yourself."
민윤기
"Is he the one who made a fuss about a kidnapping case, or is he the one who gave permission and then betrayed me?"
민윤기
"Or maybe it was the kid who ran away and ran away that was at fault."
전정국
".."
민윤기
"It seems like there's nothing to say. Send Park Jimin back."
민윤기
"Now that I've told you everything, take care of your conscience."
전정국
"...Park Jimin"
전정국
"I don't think I can send it."
민윤기
"Hey Jeon Jungkook, what is that...!!"
김여주
"Uh, Yoongi oppa...?"
민윤기
"My lady..."
김여주
"H, yes?"
민윤기
"You still don't remember anything?"
김여주
"...yes"
김여주
"But when is Jimin coming.."
민윤기
"If only I could go find it, I would."
김여주
"Yeah, why?"
민윤기
"Lady, can you come without letting go of my hand?"
김여주
"Of course!"
민윤기
"It's true."
김여주
"yes!"
민윤기
"Let's go find Jimin."
박지민
"Uh, uh..."
박지민
"Where am I again.."
김태형
"You must have come to your senses."
박지민
"G, Kim Taehyung..?!"
전정국
"Explain."
박지민
"..."
전정국
"Tell me where it all went wrong."
박지민
"Oh, if that's the case"
박지민
"Your attitude is twisted from the start."
전정국
"what?"
전정국
"My attitude?"
김태형
"Hey, Jeon Jungkook, calm down."
전정국
"Huh, huh... really.."
박지민
"Now you're suffering from amnesia?"
박지민
"I will remember these words."
박지민
"The words you said when you saw the female protagonist."
전정국
"..."
박지민
"From then on, trust began to decline."
박지민
"Even if something had happened before, it was still incredibly embarrassing."
전정국
"That, that was just a fleeting feeling..!"
박지민
"You are the emotion of that moment"
박지민
"You've lost trust."
박지민
"And then the next thing you know, I couldn't trust you because of that lost trust, so I ran away with the female protagonist from the hospital."
전정국
"..."
박지민
"Because of the female protagonist, Taehyung became white and you became black."
박지민
"But I, being gray, couldn't change."
박지민
"So I decided, I think it's better for me to have you than those unstable needles."
김태형
"Still, you could have told me that part."
박지민
"Speak?"
박지민
"If you had said that back then, would you have given permission?"
김태형
"...that's it"
박지민
"What's next?"
민윤기
"It's a betrayal by Seok Jin-hyung, the only one I trusted."
박지민
"brother?"
전정국
"Here..."
민윤기
"After quite some time, Jeon Jungkook graduated from the police academy and became a police officer, and was assigned to a case that was mistakenly believed to be a kidnapping related to Yeoju."
민윤기
"It's clear that Seok Jin-hyung had already prepared the medicine, but he didn't tell Park Jimin."
민윤기
"I was planning to slowly suffocate him and get Yeoju back and put Park Ji-min in jail."
전정국
"...Are you crazy? Why would Seok Jin-hyung do something like that?"
민윤기
"I told you on the phone earlier."
박지민
"Seok Jin-hyung gave me permission to keep her as long as I told him about Yeo-ju's condition."
박지민
“I told you that day that I remember everything except Jeon Jungkook and Kim Taehyung.”
김태형
"...Then who is at fault?"
민윤기
"It's hard to tell who's at fault."
민윤기
"Loss of trust, betrayal, and treachery"
민윤기
"I don't think it'll be easy to go back to those ordinary days."
민윤기
"No, there was no such thing as an ordinary day for the heroine in the first place."
김여주
"..."
전정국
"..I'm sorry, heroine."
김여주
"M, don't be sorry...Jungkook."
박지민
"Hey, lady..."
김여주
"I wanted to pretend I didn't know."
김여주
"I wanted to forget everything..."
김태형
"Oh, is it acting?"
김여주
"I took some medicine and asked Yoongi oppa."
김여주
"Just pretend you don't know and move on."
민윤기
"..."
김여주
"It was so hard."
김여주
"I hated you guys so much for constantly fighting, running away, and trying to catch me..."
김태형
"...."
전정국
"Uh, so in the end, we were the problem.."
김여주
"I also know where my brother is."
김여주
"But I don't want to see it.."
김여주
"If you apologize and make things right now..."
민윤기
"Let's go meet up."
박지민
"yes?"
민윤기
"Let's go see Seokjin hyung."
민윤기
"Now that I've told you everything I need to know, let's go."
김태형
"I still have something to ask."
박지민
"...."
박지민
"No, I don't want to go.."
김여주
"Jimin, I know it's hard, but there's no point in going if you leave here."
전정국
"That's right, this time I'll be on your side, Jimin."
전정국
"I'm sorry for everything, but I guess I was the one who didn't know anything..."
김태형
"Let's go quickly. If we keep doing this, we might completely lose contact with Seokjin-hyung."
박지민
"Uh, what does that mean?"
전정국
"No matter how much I told you not to..."
전정국
"I'm leaving here..."
김여주
"Huh!?..."
