All right, this is the last sign.
(Episode 1)
(Hello, let us begin...)
Check the newsreader's line changed on the teleprompter...
for the third story.
Yes, sir.
(Hello, let us begin "Lee Jeong Hoon's News Live".)
Opening video, standby.
Play the opening.
Okay, in 10 seconds.
The audio is fine.
We'll begin with camera two.
Anchor Lee, we've sent you the revised script.
Do check.
Three,
two,
one.
Go.
Hello, everyone.
We'll now begin "Lee Jeong Hoon's News Live".
Today afternoon in Gangnam, Seoul,
there was a fire at Hwarang Department Store.
The customers and employees had to evacuate.
Thankfully, there were no casualties,
but it could've been...
- dangerous. - Go.
Reporter Jo Il Kwon will tell you the details.
Hwarang Department Store,
which is situated in the middle of the city,
is full of smoke.
Anchor Lee, we don't have much time today.
Make sure to add a bit to it.
Teleprompter, make sure to keep the pace.
Yes, sir. I'll begin now.
On the fifth floor...
We have 20 seconds left.
- What? What's going on? - Due to the lack...
of safety devices, the fire worsened.
What's wrong? Is it broken?
Yes. What's wrong with this?
The fire authorities brought 25 pieces of equipment...
and countless firefighters to extinguish the fire.
As a result, the fire was put out...
What's wrong with this?
How could the teleprompter have issues...
in the middle of the news?
Did you not check it beforehand?
I did. It was fine just a while ago.
We have five seconds left.
Darn it.
3, 2, 1.
- Go. - I'm Reporter Jo Il Kwon.
In order to make the people become more aware...
- of fire safety... - This is driving me crazy.
The fire authorities decided to carry out an inspection.
They are planning to inspect 16 different public areas...
such as airports, department stores,
and accommodations regarding the current state of fire safety.
It includes a fire exit...
- Why is this so long? - And obstacles...
Those are the criteria.
Reporter Choi Yul will tell you the details.
This inspection will be carried out all throughout the country.
He probably remembered it, right?
He must have.
The teleprompter is off.
Do you think we don't know that?
Go find someone who can fix it!
Yes, sir.
Anchor Lee, the teleprompter is having issues.
I know.
We don't know when it'll get fixed.
How much of the script have you memorized?
Can you continue without the teleprompter?
I'll try.
Gosh.
Don't cause a scene by saying unnecessary things.
Check your script while the VTR is running.
If you're afraid of stuttering, just read the script.
That's better.
Darn it.
Where's the management team?
I think it'll be fine.
Seeing how he's acting, he looks confident.
You know how good his memory is.
We all know that.
When interviewing his guests,
he never really reads the script.
That's because he memorized it the day before.
This is different.
Being too proud will ruin you.
But the issue here is that...
if he's ruined, I'll be ruined as well.
Where are they?
- I'm sorry for being late. - He's here.
Can you fix it in 10 seconds?
No, it'll take another 10 minutes.
Darn it.
The law of time is fixed.
Time only moves forward, and you can never rewind it.
But there is one way to go back in time.
It's through your memory.
(To You Who Remembers)
It's the last sentence. Anchor Lee, check your script.
Five seconds.
3, 2, 1.
Go.
In the past, phone scams were simple...
and targeted only the elderly...
while the fraudsters disguised themselves...
as prosecutors or the police.
However, those fraudsters have become more clever.
Recently, they stole other people's photos from their social media...
and asked for money while pretending to be them.
There have been many victims.
In order to avoid getting suspected,
they usually asked for 1,000 dollars or less.
- Certificates are needed... - Unfortunately,
I remember one too many things.
(Find Me in Your Memory)
Hello.
My name is Lee Jeong Hoon.
Like this?
Yes.
This time, tell me about an old memory of yours.
What's the oldest memory that you have?
What's the oldest thing you remember?
A firetruck toy. It was red.
(I fell off a carousel and badly hurt myself.)
- It fell on my head. - Mommy!
It really hurt.
- Oh, dear. Jeong Hoon. - Mommy.
- I'm here.
I was crying.
And then, my mom came running and hugged me.
I'm here. It's okay. Good boy.
What a good boy.
She always smelled good.
How old were you?
I was very little.
I asked my mom about it,
and she said I could barely talk back then.
Don't lie.
I'm not!
Yoo Tae Eun.
You promised to stay quiet while I asked him questions.
We all forget things that happened when we were that little.
He may not actually remember them.
Someone may have told him about it,
and he could be mistaking it as his own memory.
You're wrong.
My mom had never told me about that story...
until I asked her.
I see.
Then do you remember everything...
since you were a baby?
No.
I only remember bits from when I was that little.
Then since when did you start remembering every little thing?
Since February 11 of 1990.
I was six back then.
Can you tell me about that day?
February 11.
It was a Sunday.
I woke up, and my mom wasn't next to me.
We had slept in the same bed.
I went to the living room, and she was making some toasts.
She drew a shape with ketchup.
It was a mess.
What else do you remember?
By any chance, do you remember anything you've read or seen...
in the newspaper or on TV?
Yes. The morning newspaper said...
that Nelson Mandela would be discharged.
"Mandela..."
"From South Africa..."
"Is Discharged".
"President Frederik Willem de Klerk had an urgent press conference."
"He said Mandela would be discharged..."
"from Victor Verster Prison near Cape Town..."
"on the 11th at 3 p.m., which is 10 p.m. KST."
My mom said...
that I was lucky...
because I could cherish...
all the happy and precious memories.
But...
I think she's wrong.
I don't only remember the good things.
- Good job. - Good job.
Good job.
Why do you look so gloomy?
I'm the one who had to suffer thanks to the broken teleprompter.
You were amazing today.
You're the best. I admire you.
Are you teasing me?
Of course, not. I'm not crazy.
- It's not that. - Then, what is it?
Did Chairman Oh Taek Won say no to this week's interview?
- How did you know that? - It's obvious.
There was a fire at his department store.
I doubt that he wants to brag about the award he won on the news.
Exactly.
Why does it have to be now?
What should we do now?
He's just playing hard-to-get to demand a few conditions.
It's probably not mentioning the fire at his department store.
I see. Then, what should we do?
We'll say we'll comply and convince him.
Get it confirmed by tomorrow morning no matter what.
And release an article for his appearance on our program.
But you will talk about the fire, won't you?
No, I won't.
- Really? - Yes.
Come on. I know that's a lie.
What if he really sues you for that?
You're a reporter, but you never keep your word.
This is next week's guest.
(Guests for the 1st Half of 2020)
(Yeo Ha Jin, "My First Love")
Next week's guest is Yeo Ha Jin?
Yes. You know who she is, right?
Why is she trying to promote her movie on the news?
Do you think I can ask to get the guest changed?
Of course, not. It's coming from the director.
We'll keep the interview simple at least once a month.
But why do you look so happy when you're talking about that?
You seem to be in a good mood.
No, I'm not. How could I be?
Wrap up the confirmation from Chairman Oh by tomorrow morning.
And come to Hwarang Department Store by noon.
Let's check the scene a bit more.
Are you serious? So you are going to bring that up!
Gosh.
Hey, you're back.
This isn't a house. It's a pigsty.
Hey, keep some food at home.
I bought everything here.
Clean up when you eat.
Fine. I got it. I'll clean up.
Don't make it sound like I don't clean.
You have a house.
Why do you always hang out at my place?
It takes five minutes to get to your place from the hospital.
Why do you come to my place when it takes 30 minutes?
Isn't that odd?
Hey, I came because I really needed to talk to you.
- About what? - You.
You had an appointment, but you didn't show up.
I'll sleep over here tonight and take you to the hospital tomorrow.
Was my appointment today?
I forgot.
You forgot?
My gosh, that's the funniest thing I ever heard come out of your mouth.
The mighty Lee Jeong Hoon forgot an appointment?
It's cracking me up.
I never said yes to the appointment to begin with.
The doctor set it up without getting the patient's consent.
When my father was your doctor,
you always got your checkup every year.
But I'm your doctor now. Are you favoring certain doctors?
To be honest, it's bound to happen.
Professor Yoo is a renowned neurologist...
and teaches at a university.
But you just...
run a small private practice in your neighborhood.
In that neighborhood, my practice is the biggest one...
when it comes to neuropsychiatry.
Forget it. I'm not going.
Listen to your doctor.
I'll drag you there even if I have to.
- Just get ready to... - It's probably the same anyway.
My memory doesn't change.
And it will stay the same forever.
I don't want to undergo tests to confirm that it hasn't changed.
We did it for 25 years. Haven't we done enough?
Have we been doing this for 25 years already?
We're old.
That's awful.
Right. Do you know Yeo Ha Jin?
The actress?
Doesn't everyone know who she is?
I was wondering if you knew her on a personal level.
My next week's guest is Yeo Ha Jin.
People talked about her social media a lot, so I checked it out.
And I saw she follows you on social media.
I see. Really?
I didn't know. I have a lot of followers.
I'm quite popular.
Gosh. You're so annoying.
Clean up the place before I kick you out.
My gosh.

Ha Jin!
- Ha Jin! - My gosh.
You're dead meat.
Hey, Ha Jin!
Ha Jin!
You shouldn't be sleeping right now!
Wake up. Get up now!
I told you not to call me like that.
I'm older than you.
That's the least of your problem now.
My gosh, your phone is ringing off the hook.
What? Was there another love scandal?
- Yes, there was. - With whom?
Are you seriously asking me that? Who do you think?
Yeo Min. No, is it Gwang Jin?
- So you know. - I got it right.
So it was with Gwang Jin.
But that's not true.
The scandal is both with Joo Yeo Min and Seo Gwang Jin.
What?
("Yeo Ha Jin Becomes the Talk of the Town for Two-timing Two Men")
("Sad News for Seo Gwang Jin and Joo Yeo Min")
"Two-timing"?
You didn't have breakfast. Can you drink coffee?
Sure. It's fine.
You don't have much time. You have a practice.
But still. I came all the way here. We have to get a meal together.
I found a really good sashimi place when I came here for a shoot.
I'll tell my manager that I'll be late.
Don't do that.
Today isn't the only day.
Okay. Let's go for a drive today.
Once you go on a break, promise me to go there with me.
- You got it. - Okay.
Here we go.
It feels great to be out. It's been so long.
I know, right? It's been too long.
Gosh, we have been so busy.
- You know the restaurant? - Yes.
We really have to go there sometimes. I'm serious.
- The sashimi place? - Yes.
What a shame.
- The ambiance is nice too. - We should go there next time.
I told you to get me iced Americano. Why did you get me hot coffee?
We just grabbed coffee together. That can't be a love scandal.
Grabbing coffee wasn't the problem.
The problem is that you went all the way to Gangneung...
to have that coffee.
I left you alone for one day to hang out with my friend.
It didn't take that long for you to cause trouble.
After driving along the coast, I came back home right away.
I didn't even get off the car.
If they were going to get our photos,
we should've had sashimi.
Sashimi, my foot.
My face looks really big here, right?
Only Yeo Min looks good in the photo.
So when you came back home after the drive,
did you meet up with Gwang Jin?
Yes. Gwang Jin and I had set it up to meet a week ago.
I hung out with Yeo Min on the spur of the moment.
I see. And you stayed with Gwang Jin at his house?
Why would I go to Gwang Jin's house?
We just had dinner and parted our ways.
Then, why did you get photographed at Gwang Jin's parking lot?
There's a spot!
I parked my car there.
That's my point. Why did you park your car there?
You know I'm bad at parking.
My gosh.
- Reverse. - The restaurant has...
a small parking lot.
They don't have valet service because they are packed.
I parked it there...
because the restaurant is in front of his house.
Turn the handle to the left?
I'm done.
My gosh, what took you so long?
You already parked your car.
I was...
I was going to park it for you.
What's wrong?
Because of the paparazzi?
No.
Come here.
Wait.
Just in case.
You don't look warm at all.
I'm not cold at all.
No, you must be cold. It's cold outside.
It's cold.
- You must be cold. - It's stuffy.
You should put it on.
- It's hot. It's stuffy. - Wait.
No, you look pretty with the hoodie on.
No, my hat is the key point of my outfit.
Why don't we put on our hoodie together?
What are you talking about?
I won't eat then.
What's wrong with him?
Fine.
No. Come here. Cover up first.
In the photo, Gwang Jin looks really affectionate.
But he's really timid when you get to know him.
What do you think about this photo?
Don't I exude a nice presence in this photo?
I'll save it.
You know what's going on now, right?
I do.
I got 2 love scandals in 1 day.
With two different men.
You do know that.
If you do, how could you spend your time...
saving photos from the articles?
What can I do? The articles are already out.
You must be spiritually enlightened. You might rise up into the sky.
But come on, two-timing is too much.
I'm not dating any of them. Two-timing, my foot.
Goodness, they never give me any time to flirt with anyone.
We need some time to learn about each other while we flirt...
before we start dating to keep the relationship going for long.
Isn't that so, Chul?
Yes, sure. Right.
Wow, you're very thoughtful. Isn't that so, Chul?
You're right.
What are they doing?
What? Who's doing what?
My movie must've become a huge hit.
Isn't that Yeo Ha Jin's car?
I got a lot of new fangirls.
Your movie hasn't even premiered.
And look at them. Is that the face of someone who's thrilled?
They're here to fight you.
How dare you date my Yeo Min?
Someone ugly like you shouldn't dare to date Yeo Min!
You hit on Gwang Jin first, didn't you?
You dirty brat! Who do you think you are?
They were Yeo Min and Gwang Jin's fans.
Yes, Ms. Park. Can you send someone out here?
We got here, and it's huge chaos.
Goodness, what's going on? This isn't good.
(Stop hitting on my Gwang Jin!)
Goodness, my knees.
Gosh, Ms. Park.
Are they gone?
Yes, it was tough to make them go. Kids these days are scary.
Where's Ha Jin?
She went to the restroom and hasn't come back...
Wait, did she go in there with her phone?
She uploaded something already. This has to be some kind of disease.
She uploaded it again?
Darn it.
No way! Two-timing? Wrong, this is far from the truth.
Yeo Min and Gwang Ji are both great guys,
but I'm not dating any of them. Please don't misunderstand.
(Yeo Ha Jin, Actress)
(You're so pretty. So pretty, I'll lie down here.)
(Why are you so cool? And you're so pretty too. Why?)
Hashtag love scandal. Hashtag surprise.
Hashtag we're just friends.
Where are you going?
Oh, to the waiting room.
Chairman Oh Taek Won arrived.
Are you heading out?
What are you going to do?
Are you going to bring up...
the fire at Hwarang Department Store during your interview with him?
Yes.
Hey, stop laughing.
My gosh. You make it impossible for me to die my natural death.
Come here.
This morning,
Chairman Oh had breakfast with our president...
- to make sure it's not mentioned. - I see.
What are you going to do now?
If you tell me not to do it, then I won't.
My gosh, you. You little... Goodness.
I can't believe you.
Since when were you so obedient?
- Hello, Mr. Hwang. - Hello.
Wait, one second.
You should probably talk to him in a little bit.
He's getting ready right now.
Is that so?
Then I'll wait.
Okay.
It seems like...
you change your glasses often.
I'm rather clumsy,
so I keep breaking them.
Did you also hurt your face when you fell down?
First off, congratulations.
This award is very prestigious that it's called the Oscars...
- of the business world. - Camera one, zoom in a bit more.
You won the biggest honor, the Businessman of the Year Award.
How do you feel?
I feel more burdened than happy.
I accepted it as a way of telling me to do even better.
What kind of spirit do you think a businessman should have?
Let's see.
This may seem like a cliche,
but I believe it's all about trust and honesty.
What about you?
Have you been keeping that spirit?
I always do my best to do so,
and I don't think I deviated too far from that.
I see.
You had great news,
but recently, there also was an unfortunate accident.
Yes, a fire broke out from our department store.
The fire was caused by the flame...
during the welding process.
Our team found a few problems...
after investigating the incident.
I'm aware of that.
You are?
After the fire, we conducted an internal investigation...
to prevent the reoccurrence of such accidents,
and there were quite a number of problems.
This is a shame for me, but I'd like to share the truth...
to apologize to our customers and our people...
- with this chance. - Bad news.
Anchor Lee loves to expose and accuse people's faults,
but he's sitting there like a fish out of water.
On top of that, when the fire broke out,
- the sprinkler system didn't work. - What?
I finally realized it could have led to a bigger disaster.
We promise to conduct timely inspection and education...
to make sure something like this does not happen again.
Once again, I sincerely apologize for what had happened.
What a relief.
This is a relief in two ways.
One,
we feel reassured to make a visit to Hwarang Department Store.
And the other reason is...
that you answered my question much faster than I thought,
so we now have enough time.
- I always go over my limit... - What? Isn't he done?
During these interviews, so the control room hates me a lot.
But I can ask you more questions without a burden on my heart.
It took me such a long time to ask you this...
in this studio.
It's thanks to the fact that you came out here for an interview,
but above all, this was made possible...
thanks to someone who mustered up the courage.
Chairman Oh Taek Won, for the last three years,
you abused your personal assistant, Mr. Hwang Seo Hoon,
both verbally and physically. Do you admit to what you did?
What is this...
I have no idea what you are talking about.
What is he saying?
There's zero value in answering that question.
August 12, 2017.
A dent in the face and fractured ribs.
February 3, 2018.
Fractured knee bones and ruptured eardrums.
May 25, 2018.
- Bruises all over the body... - What's with him?
And ruptured eardrums.
January 13, 2019.
Fractured ribs and teeth damage.
September 23, 2019.
Fractured cheekbones and damaged eyeballs.
These are the medical records of your assistant, Mr. Hwang.
Do you not recall?
I'm telling you. What does that have to do with me?
You seem quite rude to the interviewee you invited.
I once visited you three years ago to cover a story.
Oh, but you won't remember. I didn't get to meet you in person.
Back then,
you said this to Mr. Hwang, your assistant.
"You're worse than pests. Are you deaf or something?"
You're worse than pests. Are you deaf or something?
- I said, don't step on the brakes. - I'm sorry.
I told you not to step on it until we get here, you idiot.
I'm sorry.
You'll get a hold of yourself after a good beating.
Won't you? Won't you?
You idiot. Get up.
I'm sorry, sir.
Stop touching me.
You crazy idiot.
Do you still not recall?
Darn it. He was trying to expose that from the beginning?
- I remember like it was yesterday. - My gosh, that kid.
But if you can't seem to remember,
I guess you have a bad memory.
There are more witnesses other than me,
these hospital records,
and even the dashcam footage.
I already have enough evidence.
You mentioned before that...
you adhere to trust and honesty.
Your trust is already broken,
but I can give you a chance to keep your honesty.
Let me word it differently and ask you once again.
Chairman Oh Taek Won, for the last three years,
you abused your personal assistant, Hwang Seo Hoon,
both verbally and physically.
Do you deny it?
What's wrong with him?
I'm sorry.
I'll patch this up.
I think I'll become Lee Jeong Hoon's fan.
That's amazing.
- This is going to be huge. - Seriously.
- He's nothing to Lee Jeong Hoon. - That's Lee Jeong Hoon.
I knew that chairman would do something like that.
- He got him. - I knew it.
Hey, stop right there and cut it.
Cut it off. Assistant Director?
Cut it off already, you idiot!
Cut it off!
Goodness.
We ran out of time,
so we'll need to hear your answer next time.
Thank you for coming out today.
That was Chairman Oh Taek Won of Hwarang.
Play the ending credit.
Anchor, standby for the closing.
In 3, 2, 1.
Go.
I am sure...
many of you are flustered with the unexpected situation.
Everything that was exposed through this interview...
will be dealt with in follow-up coverage...
as soon as possible.
That's all for "Lee Jeong Hoon's News Live".
Have a great night.
Gosh.
"Have a great night"?
(Episode 2)
(HBN President Lee Deuk Gyu)
It ended so quickly like a dream.
I know you made a tough decision.
Thank you for your courage.
Now that I let it get out,
I think I shouldn't have held back to this day.
This probably won't be the end.
Chairman Oh will continue to urge you to settle this case.
He'll persuade you, threaten you,
and do everything he can.
I'm aware of that.
And I'm ready to face him.
(Civil Rights Lawyer Kim Jin Tae)
He's a civil rights lawyer I know.
He'll be of help to you.
Thank you.
Are you going to just sit there and watch?
Give us a hand.
(Tae Eun)
Are you all done?
Yes.
Isn't this dress pretty?
Yes, it's really pretty.
It was tough for me to get that.
That wasn't sponsored. We bought it.
You'll be splashed with water today.
Oh, you're right.
It's sad to think that this is the last shooting.
Why would you be sad?
People bashed you so much while you were on this drama.
You were a brat who stole someone's husband,
someone they want to kill and someone who should die.
People say you'll live long if you get bashed,
so you'll probably live until you're 200.
Chul, everyone else has a few more days of shooting, right?
Yes, about three more times.
Then I'll come and visit the set.
You're going to come back to see Ko Yu Ra?
You didn't get bullied enough, did you?
I don't even want to see her face.
Anyone can see that she's the villain.
They definitely cast the wrong person for the role.
You should come out now.
- Yes. - Okay. I'll be there now.
- Get ready and come out. - Okay.
Let's see.
You changed your earrings.
Yes. Doesn't this one look better?
Yes. Look.
What?
My gosh.
Did you not get your outfit checked before the shoot?
Why do we match?
I definitely got it checked,
so why is this happening?
Oh, no. You better change.
- Me? - Then?
Should I?
It's not that I don't want to change.
That color doesn't complement your skin color.
Don't be ridiculous.
Jae Hee, does this not look good on me?
No, you look beautiful.
It complements your skin color.
Not at all.
So are you refusing to change?
Do I need to change?
That's so harsh.
It's such a scary vibe.
We're about to finish shooting.
I know.
- What's going on? - I don't know.
What's their problem?
I think it's regarding their outfits.
- I'm sick of this. - She should apologize.
I'll change.
I'm sorry. I'll change.
I knew this would happen.
There's nothing I like about her.
- How long do we need to wait? - Maybe it was intentional.
Can we film today? That's enough.
Look at how brazen she is.
She changed hers first and now wants you to change?
It's fine. Thank goodness we brought several outfits.
This doesn't feel good.
You just need to throw water at each other, right?
Yes. I'll need to change into this.
This feels ominous.
Why isn't she done yet?
- That's better. - She's gorgeous.
- She looks much better. - You're right.
It looks good on you.
- She's so pretty. - Ha Jin.
- The color is so bright. - You look so much better.
Thank you.
It suits her so well.
Director, when are we starting?
Right. Let's rehearse first.
That's fine. She and I have good teamwork.
We don't have much time. We should hurry.
Is that fine?
Yes.
Okay. Let's film right away.
- We'll begin now. - Okay.
They always place the reflectors toward her.
Standby.
Ready. Action.
There you are.
Be honest.
What did you tell my husband?
What do you think?
The truth.
I told him that you and I weren't related...
and that it wouldn't cause any problems to our affair.
I told him to leave you and come to me.
How? How could you do this to me?
After all that Mom did for you...
I told you not to mention her.
I told you so!
That crazy wench.
Cut.
Ha Jin, how could you stop there?
It was nice.
Was getting slapped part of the script?
What? I thought you guys planned it out.
Did I not tell you?
I thought I did.
I'm so busy these days that I can't keep track of anything.
Oh, dear. I'm sorry.
You must've been startled.
Is Ko Yu Ra crazy or what?
She changed her outfit and the script as well.
She slapped you on purpose, right?
Of course. Even the director didn't know.
This is infuriating.
Calm down.
My character deserves to get slapped.
The viewers like refreshing scenes like that.
I guess my acting was good.
I think we'll get higher ratings.
Why would you hit me?
I'm not that swollen, right? Look.
In order for memory to become long-term memory,
it needs to go through long-term potentiation.
However, the latter will only...
strengthen your synapse, and that's the problem.
In other words, it'll select...
already-existing memories and delete them...
in order to make space.
It'll prevent the neural network from overflowing.
This result is also called oblivion.
Many people think...
that oblivion is a passive action.
However,
this state of oblivion is a direct result,
stemming from the brain, in order to make space.
Think about it.
What if your brain lost the ability to forget?
What if it remembered everything?
My head would explode.
It's similar.
It'll be overflowing.
It'll have trouble saving new memories.
And even if...
your brain could take it,
it'd be difficult for you to live a normal lifestyle.
Let's say you broke up with someone you loved.
It'll pain you that day.
It'll pain you for a while.
But how would you feel after a year...
or 10 years?
You may not remember their face.
It's all thanks to your brain forgetting it.
But what if you can't forget anything?
What if you're still reliving the breakup even after 10 years?
- That's terrible. - Goodness.
So you shouldn't blame your brain for forgetting things.
There's actually a good side to that.
Professor, I have a question.
I've read your thesis regarding hyperthymesia...
where one remembers everything.
I couldn't find any recent information...
on your real-life subject, H.
He was 11 years old back then.
That means he's 36 now.
I'd like to know how he's doing...
and if anything regarding his memory has changed.
I'm not sure. We lost touch...
after I finished up on my thesis.
I can't tell you how he's doing.
But he's probably the same.
There's no cure, after all.
Hello, Father. Why have you called?
Why haven't you sent me Jeong Hoon's results?
We're taking our time. He's busy, you know?
My goodness.
Send it in by the end of this month.
If you're not up for it, just drop it.
He hasn't changed one bit.
Ha Kyung, Ms. Park called.
She's stuck in traffic and will be late.
- All right. - Okay.
Have you read the questionnaire for "Lee Jeong Hoon's News Live"?
Not yet. I was busy filming.
You don't have much time. Hurry.
Read it thoroughly.
You need to be well-prepared to survive.
I'm already all prepared.
How?
I looked up Anchor Lee.
He's very popular.
His nickname is Gentle Tyrant.
He's gentle but can also bombard you with powerful facts.
Everyone's saying how amazing he is.
Did you not see how his guests looked?
From politicians and businessmen to idol singers and top stars,
all successful individuals were battered on his show.
Ko Yu Ra, that headstrong wench, couldn't say a thing.
Really? She was on that show?
You're not even a bit prepared for this.
Show me that video I was watching earlier.
Okay, hold on.
("News Live's legendary clip, Ko Yu Ra delays a flight")
- Here. - You've said...
you wanted to become a role model to the people.
Could you elaborate on that?
I'm not sure. I wasn't expecting this question.
Then I'll give you a few examples.
You parked your car in the handicapped parking lot...
every time you had to film for a drama.
During last year's filming abroad,
you delayed the flight by being an hour late.
Would you say that you were a good role model?
(She's crying inside.)
Minister Blanco of Mexico...
delayed a flight by being 38 minutes late...
and voluntarily resigned from his position.
Yu Ra.
Have you made a formal apology for this incident?
He's so amazing.
"Amazing"? Are you watching the correct video?
Yes. I had no idea watching the news was so fun.
It's so thrilling.
In a few hours, you'll become the star of that thrilling show.
How thrilling!
It'll be fun today.
And I'm looking forward to meeting Mr. Lee Jeong Hoon.
Hello, Ms. Park.
Oh, my. What's all that?
Relaxing pills. Everyone, take one.
Why did you buy so many?
You can't consume a lot of the pills at once.
I'm just so worried.
Why did you book her for "Lee Jeong Hoon's News Live"?
You were the one who booked it.
Right. I did.
I only booked it because...
I wanted to make Ha Jin look look elegant and intelligent.
Ha Jin, you can do a good job, right?
Of course, Ms. Park.
Don't worry. There's nothing to worry about.
You should take one too, Ha Jin.
You've been on a few radio shows.
This is your first live broadcast on TV.
Can you handle it?
I am a bit nervous.
I don't need the relaxing pill. I have something better.
- When is Yeo Ha Jin coming? - I can't see it.
Hello.
- Hi. - Did you get started?
Of course.
What do you think? Do you want more makeup?
- I think we're good. - Okay.
- Then, rest for a bit. - Okay.
- Did you bring it? - Yes.
You can only take a sip. That's it.
If Ha Kyung and Ms. Park find out,
they'll kill me.
Okay. I never got caught before.
Don't worry.
What is it? What are you two up to?
What do you mean? This is just coffee.
I bought one for you too. Which one is mine?
The one on the left.
Aren't they the same thing?
This is Lee Jeong Hoon.
If you're not sure about something, don't say it.
Don't say anything unless he asks you.
Anyway, don't say anything you don't need to say.
Come in.
- Hello. - Hello.
Hi.
Nice to meet you.
I came here because...
I wanted to talk about today's interview briefly.
You look more handsome in person than on TV.
And you have a great voice too.
What? He is handsome.
I didn't go over the line or anything.
Do you think he's not handsome?
I'll leave you two to talk about the interview.
Please help her a lot today.
Okay.
You are handsome, Mr. Lee.
You are very handsome.
Thank you.
- Ha Kyung. - Ms. Park.
Ms. Park, this is the best card we have, right?
She's bound to cause trouble.
Since everyone gets criticized here, it's better to get it done here.
But why do I feel like we're walking into the fiery pit voluntarily?
Yes, you're right. This is the fiery pit.
What should we do?
I don't know why I agreed to this.
I must have lost my mind for a second.
Should we pull out now?
No.
They'll criticize us even more then.
Yes.
Our interview will be the first segment of the news...
and will air at 11 o'clock on the dot.
The interview will last for about 10 minutes.
I see.
I don't think the questionnaire will be that helpful.
I'm glad to hear that. I didn't get to read thoroughly.
I see.
Don't take it too seriously.
Just think of it as a casual conversation.
I will.
By the way, do you have another tie instead of that one?
Pardon?
This tie doesn't complement your skin tone at all...
- and your outfit, either. - Wait.
A tie without patterns will be better.
And a light color...
Do you have any bright-colored ties?
Well...
I'll look for one.
You have to change it. That doesn't look good on you at all.
Read the questionnaire,
and ask me questions if you have any.
Okay.
Oh, right. Mr. Lee, have some coffee.
Coffee...
Which one...
Take this.
Okay. Thank you.
Is this really coffee?
It tastes like alcohol?
That one tastes like alcohol?
It's switched.
That's mine.
I must've given you the wrong one.
Were you going to drink alcohol before the live broadcast?
No.
I didn't drink it yet. You drank it just now.
But only a small amount was mixed.
Just a bit.
Are you okay?
Jeong Hoon.
What's she like? Is she prettier in person?
She's beyond my expectations.
She's way prettier?
She's way crazier than I expected.
What?
What's that smell?
You drank alcohol?
I didn't drink much. Just a sip.
And one-third of the drink was coffee.
But I don't know what kind of liquor it was.
I think it's whiskey.
What are you saying?
Who spiked the coffee with whiskey and gave it to you?
Why?
It's a long story.
The live broadcast starts soon. Will I be okay?
Hey.
A sip of whiskey is nothing.
A sip won't do anything.
Just brush your teeth before you start.
Okay. You're an awful doctor,
but I can trust you when it comes to alcohol.
But I might cause big trouble even if I weren't intoxicated.
I need to interview a woman who's more dangerous than alcohol.
Who? Are you talking about Yeo Ha Jin?
Mr. Lee, hurry!
I should go in before I mess up big time on TV. Bye.
Okay. Bye. Good luck.
Hi.
("Lee Jeong Hoon's News Live")
Why didn't you change your tie?
Oh, this. I looked for one,
but I couldn't find one.
That's a lie.
You had a lot of ties in your green room.
I found one.
This is perfect for you. Put this on instead.
Ha Jin looks great in red.
I know.
Hurry. We don't have much time.
What are they doing?
Must I change it now?
I'm serious. That one looks terrible on you.
This looks much better on you. It complements your skin tone.
We'll start in a minute.
Hurry. We only have a minute.
Should I do it for you?
No.
I'll do it myself.
What's going on? Why is he changing his tie now?
Anchor Lee, be on standby.
10 seconds before the opening.
Here's the opening.
It's starting.
Anchor Lee, be on standby.
It's not as bright as I thought it'd look.
We're rolling!
In 3, 2, 1.
To the anchor.
Hello, everyone.
We'll now begin "Lee Jeong Hoon's News Live".
We have a special guest in our studio today.
It's Actress Yeo Ha Jin. Nice to meet you.
- Hello. Nice to meet you. - How long until this is over?
- They just said their greetings. - I've seen you a lot on TV.
But this time, you were in a movie.
Isn't the title of your movie "My First Love"?
Yes, that's right. I'm the first love of the main character.
You played a lot of villainess roles that bullied...
the main characters instead of playing kind characters.
You might get this question a lot, but how was that experience?
Which role do you prefer acting?
I definitely prefer the villainess roles.
But of course, I liked the role I played in the movie.
To be honest, I don't think the roles...
I played so far aren't that wicked.
I think the characters I played didn't pretend to be nice...
on the outside and stayed true to their feelings.
In that sense, the character I played in the movie, Ae Young,
is the same way.
She's very honest about her feelings.
It's my first time meeting you, Ha Jin,
so I haven't had a lot of time to observe you.
But I think you are very honest with yourself in real life too.
That's right. You're spot on.
I'm very honest,
so I got criticized for that a lot.
- You have a lot of followers... - That's her charm.
- On her social media. - She's cool.
Do you like her?
- Of course. - You were in the top ten...
- of Korean celebrities. - I follow her on social media.
- You crazy jerk. - I think I will get more...
after this broadcast.
My goal is to get into the top five within this year.
- Why would she say that? - Supporter.
Or devotee.
That's the definition of the word, "follower".
Of course, I'm not saying that people who follow you...
on social media are all supporters or devotees.
Just like this huge number, 8.6 million followers,
you can say that you leave a huge impact on the public, right?
Probably.
I have a question now.
This is a personal question for you.
I think I should ask for your permission first.
If you don't want that, we can proceed with prepared questions.
My gosh, just follow the sheet.
This isn't your personal channel.
No, it's okay. You can ask me whatever you want.
Thank you.
Before the interview, I checked out your social media account.
From what I observed from your social media account,
you are not consistent...
and seem to be a fickle person.
Pardon?
- There he goes again. Darn it. - I'll give you a few examples.
You uploaded countless numbers of posts...
praising a certain product and its company,
then you changed what you said...
and expressed your dissatisfaction many times.
Then you expressed your support for a certain political party,
then withdrew your support in just three months.
Then a week later, you expressed your support for that party again.
Is there a particular reason?
Yes, there is.
I see. May I ask what it is?
I don't exactly remember now,
but I definitely had a reason.
But you can't seem to remember that definite reason,
although it's definite.
- It's... - If you continuously change...
your values and beliefs for reasons you don't even remember,
don't you think you're a little too irresponsible...
as a celebrity who has the power to influence the general public?
It's...
You just said you're rather honest.
I'm not sure. From a different view,
it can look like you're covering up your irresponsibility as honesty.
- That's not... - If that's not it,
you might be using honesty as your shield.
I don't know.
I don't want to...
be that complicated when it comes to my feelings.
Regardless of making complicated reasons or calculations,
I just want to live...
simply counting up to about 5 or 6.
I don't like complicated things.
I just want to live simply counting up to about 5 or 6,
so that I can finish calculating only by using my two thumbs.
Come on.
It's my favorite saying, so you have to remember that.
I'll never forget it. Don't worry.
Why isn't he saying anything?
Anchor Lee?
What's with him?
Hey, what are you doing? Anchor Lee?
Excuse me, are you all right?
Mr. Lee?
Hey.
(Find Me in Your Memory)
Hyperthymesia?
Remembering too much is a medical condition?
It's not that I remember a lot.
I just can't forget anything.
Are you going to die?
Does your first love look like me too?
Wake up, Seo Yeon!
I'm sorry.
I can't stop or end this.
It's as if I'm stuck in that memory.
I love you.
I'll remember this forever.
Why did he look so sad?
What was he saying in that silence?
Jung Seo Yeon. Do you know her?
