00:00The elderly woman gave the man a brief glance, and he immediately exploded in anger, threatening to teach her a lesson and angrily telling the onlookers in the car not to meddle.
00:23But just then, his attention was drawn to a muscular man, and he even began to provoke him. With everyone now pinning their hopes on this muscular man, Jang-Soo finally stood up under the pressure and walked toward the angry man. The moment Jang-Soo stood up, the man's heart started to tremble, fearing that he had gone too far and angered this absolute beast.
00:42To everyone's surprise, the man who was once known for his righteous fury, Jang-Soo, ignored the shameless behavior. This led to the angry girl getting out of the car and confronting Jang-Soo.
01:03The reason for Jang-Soo's transformation from a hero who fought evil to this cold, indifferent person stemmed from an event four years ago, on his way to take his daughter for a medical checkup.
01:18Jang-Soo encountered a traffic accident. Unable to ignore a life in danger, Jang-Soo asked his wife and daughter to stay in the car while he got out to help.
01:26However, as he was assisting, a truck, swerving to avoid something, lost control and crashed into Jang-Soo's car. This horrific moment cost Jang-Soo his beloved wife, and the surviving daughter became his only remaining family and support.
01:40But his precious daughter, who already had a congenital heart condition, suffered even more after the accident. Her condition worsened, making it dangerous for her to engage in any strenuous activity.
01:51Even running was risky, with the potential to cause fatal consequences. This tragedy took away her chance to enjoy the carefree joy and freedom of her peers.
01:59For this reason, Jang-Soo has been waiting for an opportunity to find a suitable heart donor to save his daughter's life.
02:06When a donor was finally found, Jang-Soo was overwhelmed with emotion, even shedding tears in front of the doctors, despite his tough exterior.
02:13However, the cost of the surgery was high, and Jang-Soo was prepared to sell his gym, even willing to sacrifice half of his life's earnings to ensure his daughter's future safety.
02:24One day, Jang-Soo unexpectedly saw his daughter running quickly to help an elderly person who had fallen, accompanied by the police.
02:31But not long after, the girl's lips turned pale, and she was gasping for breath.
02:36Standing still, Jang-Soo approached and scolded his daughter, telling her not to meddle in other people's business.
02:42However, one of the officers nearby overheard and said that the girl was doing a good deed by helping, and instead of praising her, Jang-Soo was scolding her.
02:55This confused Tae-Jin, who had a strong sense of justice.
02:59Later that night, after work, Tae-Jin accidentally witnessed Jang-Soo having direct contact with the local gang, thinking that they were all connected.
03:06What Tae-Jin didn't know was that Jang-Soo had been out late, working as a driver to earn extra money.
03:12Confused, Tae-Jin, who had previously encountered the gang during a patrol at the docks, knew they were involved in smuggling women.
03:20However, without evidence or a warrant, taking action on his own could lead to serious consequences.
03:25So, Tae-Jin followed one of their cars, tracking it until he found the vehicle parked, but it was already empty.
03:31Soon after, Jang-Soo appeared and claimed that the car was his gym's private vehicle.
03:36Tae-Jin became suspicious, questioning why Jang-Soo would allow the gang to use his car.
03:41Jang-Soo, visibly angry, insisted that the car was used for transporting students, and he would never allow it to be used for illegal activities.
03:49However, Jang-Soo's fierce and intimidating demeanor made it hard for Tae-Jin to believe that he wasn't involved in gang activities.
03:56Because of this, Tae-Jin kept a close watch on Jang-Soo.
03:59That night, Tae-Jin witnessed another encounter between Jang-Soo and the gang, prompting him to follow Jang-Soo and investigate further.
04:07Unexpectedly, he stumbled upon a gang member capturing a woman, and while the gang member wasn't paying attention, the woman dropped her phone.
04:15The woman was then taken away by several men.
04:18Realizing something was wrong, Tae-Jin quickly grabbed the phone.
04:21He snuck upstairs and overheard the gang discussing their illegal activities.
04:25With the woman's phone capturing the evidence,
04:27Tae-Jin took the phone back to the police station, where he and his senior reviewed the footage.
04:33However, the footage was damaged, and they needed to repair it before they could confirm the evidence and request an arrest.
04:39Meanwhile, Jang-Soo had just bought his daughter a toy when he discovered that his car had been towed for no reason.
04:45As he complained and wondered why, he saw Tae-Jin driving by.
04:49Jang-Soo immediately assumed that Tae-Jin was responsible, since the young officer often caused trouble for him.
04:55Determined to confront Tae-Jin, Jang-Soo, with his large build, immediately started chasing after the car.
05:02Little did he know, he was about to get caught up in a dangerous confrontation.
05:06After receiving a call, Tae-Jin arrived at a deserted parking lot.
05:10As he was about to investigate, he was ambushed by two masked men.
05:13Though the two assailants tried to restrain Tae-Jin, his large size allowed him to break free.
05:28Just as they were about to face the consequences of assaulting a police officer,
05:32the fleeing thug suddenly accelerated and crashed directly into Tae-Jin.
05:35The sudden impact of the crash knocked Tae-Jin unconscious.
05:39As the criminals were about to search Tae-Jin's belongings, a breathless Jang-Soo arrived,
05:44only to find Tae-Jin collapsed on the ground.
05:52Jang-Soo was knocked to the ground with a single strike,
05:56and the officer who took him down was none other than Tae-Jin Sr.
05:59It turned out that the officer, who had been colluding with the gang all along,
06:03had been right by Tae-Jin's side.
06:05However, upon seeing Tae-Jin being knocked out,
06:08the senior officer immediately became extremely nervous.
06:12As Tae-Jin was his favorite junior, he angrily confronted the others,
06:16asking why they had gone beyond stealing and resorted to harming Tae-Jin,
06:19especially when they had agreed only to take things without causing harm.
06:23In a panic, the senior officer called for backup and an ambulance.
06:26Both Tae-Jin and Jang-Soo were rushed to the hospital.
06:30But strangely, Tae-Jin seemed unaffected when he arrived at the hospital,
06:34even rushing to comfort his girlfriend.
06:36However, his girlfriend couldn't see him at all, which confused Tae-Jin.
06:40He then looked to his senior, but the officer also ignored him.
06:44As he made his way to his girlfriend,
06:46Tae-Jin finally realized that he had been lying on a hospital bed, undergoing treatment.
06:51It dawned on him that his soul had left his body,
06:53in such an unbelievable situation.
06:55Anyone would panic.
06:57Determined to figure out what was happening,
06:59Tae-Jin decided to test it out by walking into traffic.
07:02When the cars passed right through him,
07:04he was convinced his soul had truly left his body.
07:07Meanwhile, the newly awakened Jang-Soo was asked by the homicide unit to cooperate with the
07:12investigation.
07:13Jang-Soo answered truthfully and learned from them that Officer Tae-Jin was seriously injured
07:17and in a coma, and it was highly likely that he would never wake up.
07:21However, just a moment later, while heading to the bathroom,
07:24Jang-Soo accidentally ran into Tae-Jin.
07:31What Tae-Jin didn't expect was that, while everyone else couldn't see him,
07:37Jang-Soo was able to see him clearly and even talk to him.
07:40At first, Jang-Soo didn't realize anything was wrong and assumed that Tae-Jin was playing a trick on him,
07:46so he didn't take it seriously.
07:47Even when he walked through Tae-Jin's body, he still thought Tae-Jin was just messing with him for fun.
07:53It wasn't until he saw Tae-Jin lying in the ICU that Jang-Soo realized something was wrong.
08:03He couldn't believe his eyes seeing a ghost in broad daylight had completely thrown him off.
08:08Even when he woke up and saw Tae-Jin again, Jang-Soo immediately asked the nurse beside him if she could see him.
08:13The nurse thought Jang-Soo was suffering from a head injury.
08:16The second shock to his system left Jang-Soo terrified.
08:19Unable to accept the fact that he was seeing a ghost, he decided it was best to ignore it.
08:24Thus began a game of chase between them Jang-Soo running away.
08:28Tae-Jin following.
08:29With Jang-Soo trying to avoid the situation and not get scared.
08:32It wasn't until Jang-Soo was exhausted from running and realized he had nowhere to go that he
08:37finally learned from Tae-Jin's conversation that Tae-Jin had been framed while investigating the gang.
08:42The misunderstanding between them occurred because Jang-Soo often visited the docks at night to mourn his deceased wife.
08:48And Tae-Jin had been tracking him.
08:49Though the misunderstanding was cleared up, Jang-Soo seemed uninterested in helping with the investigation,
09:02and he declined Tae-Jin's request for assistance.
09:05Facing the only person who could see him, Jang-Soo refused to lend a hand,
09:09leaving Tae-Jin to hope that he would soon wake up.
09:12Unexpectedly, while waiting in the hospital room, Tae-Jin made another shocking discovery.
09:16His senior, who came to visit him, was acting suspiciously.
09:21After receiving a phone call, Tae-Jin followed him and discovered that his senior was secretly
09:25meeting with members of the gang.
09:27It was then that Tae-Jin realized that the person who had been colluding with the gang
09:31was none other than the senior he respected the most.
09:34The senior had fallen into the gang's grip after losing money in gambling,
09:37and the gang had used his weakness to pull him in.
09:46What shocked Tae-Jin even more was that the station chief was also involved with them.
10:07From their conversation, it became clear that the station chief was the true mastermind behind everything.
10:12In this area, it turned out that the local gang was operating under the protection of the station chief,
10:18and Tae-Jin had been deceived by them all along.
10:20To tie up loose ends, the station chief ordered the gang leader to eliminate the witnesses.
10:25The only person who witnessed the assault on Tae-Jin was Jang-Soo himself.
10:29Tae-Jin immediately rushed back to warn Jang-Soo to run, but Jang-Soo didn't believe him.
10:34Instead, he tried to shake off Tae-Jin and return to the hospital for a checkup.
10:38Unbeknownst to him, the gang was already waiting for him, ready to strike.
10:52Thanks to Tae-Jin's timely warning, Jang-Soo narrowly escaped this attack.
10:57As they say, no matter how skilled you are, you can't beat a knife.
11:01Especially when you're in poor health.
11:03Jang-Soo, following his usual instinct of run when you can't fight,
11:07quickly hid, with Tae-Jin, the ghost only Jang-Soo could see.
11:11Jang-Soo managed to avoid the assassination attempt, but just as one crisis passed,
11:16another arose.
11:17Jang-Soo couldn't contact his daughter and needed to find her immediately.
11:21Meanwhile, Tae-Jin learned that his girlfriend had met with his senior and handed over the crucial
11:26evidence card.
11:27Concerned for her safety, Tae-Jin was afraid his senior might harm her,
11:31so he went to ask Jang-Soo for help.
11:33However, Jang-Soo was too focused on finding his missing daughter to help anyone else.
11:38After everything that had happened, he feared the gang had taken her, so he frantically searched
11:43with no sign of her.
11:44Tae-Jin, who had been following Jang-Soo, suddenly remembered that he had once seen a girl
11:49secretly run to a small storage room behind Jang-Soo's back.
11:52After confirming his suspicion, Tae-Jin told Jang-Soo, and they found his daughter unconscious
11:57in the storage room.
11:59Luckily, they discovered her in time, and Jang-Soo's daughter was saved.
12:03This incident led to an open conversation between Jang-Soo and Tae-Jin, and Tae-Jin
12:07finally understood why Jang-Soo had refused to help before.
12:11Coincidentally, Tae-Jin saw his girlfriend meeting with his senior and handing over the
12:15evidence.
12:16Furious, Tae-Jin acted impulsively, unaware that his actions had caused something near the
12:21trash can to move.
12:22This triggered something inside Tae-Jin, causing his heart to feel a sharp pain.
12:26Soon after, Tae-Jin's girlfriend received a critical condition notice from the doctor,
12:31though she was saved.
12:33The doctor informed her that Tae-Jin's chance of survival was extremely low.
12:37The news hit like a thunderbolt, but his girlfriend, despite the grim prognosis, stood by him.
12:43She even signed a marriage application with him, as she was carrying Tae-Jin's child.
12:47However, it seemed that Tae-Jin's chances of waking up were slim, which made her feel deeply
12:52heartbroken.
12:53Tae-Jin silently followed his girlfriend.
12:55But in the next moment, she was kidnapped by a group of people, feeling an unexplainable
13:01connection with her.
13:02Tae-Jin collapsed helplessly to the ground, determined to seek Jang-Soo's help again.
13:06Tae-Jin overheard a doctor telling Jang-Soo that they had lost track of the source of his
13:10daughter's heart again.
13:12This left both Jang-Soo and Tae-Jin feeling utterly hopeless, faced with a desperate father
13:16and an uncertain fate for his girlfriend.
13:19Tae-Jin, overwhelmed with emotion, knelt down and begged Jang-Soo for help.
13:23He implored Jang-Soo to save his girlfriend first.
13:26As she was carrying his child, Tae-Jin knew he had no chance of survival and didn't want
13:31to drag them both down.
13:32As a father, Jang-Soo deeply understood the feeling of losing a loved one, but his previous
13:37interference had already come at a great cost.
13:39Jang-Soo's inner struggle was palpable, and Tae-Jin could feel the weight of his helplessness
13:44in despair, but just then, Jang-Soo caught up with him, and his innate kindness pulled
13:49him back.
13:49He knew that if he didn't act now, he would regret it for the rest of his life.
13:54Soon, Jang-Soo dragged his subordinate into the police station to check the license plate
13:58number, eventually tracing it to an ice factory.
14:01While searching for an entrance, they accidentally triggered a switch, which alerted the people
14:05inside and gave Jang-Soo an opportunity to break in.
14:08Tae-Jin, having figured out the situation inside, informed Jang-Soo that the people were being
14:14held there, so it was time for Jang-Soo to take the lead.
14:28With his subordinate's help, Jang-Soo quickly cleared the area and rescued a group of women
14:33who had been forcibly imprisoned.
14:35Meanwhile, Tae-Jin Sr., who had seen his girlfriend being captured, was filled with regret,
14:41even after handing over the storage card.
14:43The gang refused to release her and threatened the senior officer, showing no respect for
14:48him.
14:48He even received a brutal beating for his trouble.
14:51When the station chief arrived, the gang leader smugly boasted, believing his experience
14:56could outsmart the situation.
14:57After handling everything, the station chief planned to have the patrol officers clean up and shift
15:21the blame onto the gang leader.
15:22But in the next moment, Jang-Soo walked in.
15:25Jang-Soo wasted no time and immediately showed his strength.
15:34Seeing this, the station chief tried to flee.
15:37But Jang-Soo, as powerful as a beast, quickly stopped him.
15:41Just as Jang-Soo subdued the station chief, the patrol officers arrived.
15:45At that moment, Jang-Soo still didn't realize that the person he had caught was the station
15:50chief, not just some petty gang member.
15:53With no one to correct him, the station chief falsely accused Jang-Soo, labeling him as a
15:58villain working with the gang.
15:59As the saying goes, those who do evil will eventually meet their end.
16:03The homicide unit from the city arrived just in time, rushing straight for the station chief.
16:09Clearly prepared for a confrontation, this was thanks to the senior officer's redemption.
16:13Unable to bear the guilt, he had kept the real evidence to expose both the station chief and
16:18himself.
16:19However, the station chief wasn't done yet.
16:22He still tried to make a final stand, unwilling to let go of the power he had accumulated over
16:27the years.
16:27Seeing the situation at a standstill, Tae-Jing recalled the moment he had knocked over the
16:32trash can and caused a disturbance.
16:34He looked up at the icemaker above the station chief's head and decided to take action.
16:38In the end, the station chief was knocked out by the suddenly activated icemaker.
16:42While only Jang-Soo knew what had happened, everyone else believed it was just karma, a
16:47cosmic form of justice.
16:49Ultimately, they rescued Tae-Jing's girlfriend.
16:52But unfortunately, Tae-Jing couldn't be saved.
16:55Because of this, Jang-Soo's daughter was given another chance at life.
16:58The cycle of karma is truly mysterious.
17:01When Jang-Soo's daughter underwent her heart transplant, the surgeon was none other than
17:05the couple he had saved four years ago from the accident.
17:07This was a perfect example of good deeds leading to good outcomes, and it allowed Jang-Soo
17:12to be reborn, continuing his role as the heroic Jang-Soo, the man with a smile, where life
17:18and death are unpredictable.
