Chul becomes a multimillionaire with assets worth 800 million dollars.
We will find the killer through the crime investigation programme.
He founds a broadcasting channel W...
and looks for the criminal who murdered his family 10 years ago.
But he gets attacked...
- and becomes seriously injured. - The police spotted Kang Chul...
Chul goes to meet the webtoon artist Oh Seong Moo...
who created and destroyed his life.
- Draw the killer's face. - There is no killer.
There he finds out that his life...
is just a fake fabricated by the artist.
He tries to end his own life.
When I was desperate to live, you tried so hard to kill me.
Why would you continue the life I chose to end?
Who would want to live this life again?
It's because I love you!
He gets saved by Yeon Joo again,
and he realises his true feelings for her.
Just remain as my friend.
You are fired.
Thank you for everything.
- Her hand disappeared? - It's ridiculous, but it happened.
Is that a wedding ring?
Oh, gosh!
Oh, dear!
Chul is about to live a happy second life with Yeon Joo.
I'll put a bullet in her head.
It's her turn now.
The killer appears.

(Episode 8)
Hello?
Where are you?
How did you go back?
(How did you go back?)
Who gave you the permission to die?
I've waited so long for you.
- Who are you? - Who am I?
Don't you know me?
I killed your family.
(I killed your family.)
It was 10 years ago at your house.
There is no such person. There is no killer.
That was just a set-up.
It was a set-up to make the protagonist strong.
Who...
Who are you?
I killed your parents and your siblings.
I put them down with just four bullets.
I am a marksman...
just like you.
So you should find me.
Why would you die without finding me? You can't die now.
(You can't die now.)
It will only end...
when you and I are done.
I see you have a new family now.
(I see you have a new family now.)
It's her turn now.
I'll put a bullet in her head.
(I'll put a bullet in her head.)
Wait for it.
Hello?
When did you get here?
What's wrong?
Why did it change...
from "The end" to "To be continued"?
- What? - You said it suddenly changed.
(The end)
(To be continued)
You said you could save me...
because the letters changed.
I don't know. It just changed.
It just changed?
I thought there must be a reason why it can't end yet.
I don't know what the reason is.
What is it? Why are you asking me that?
- Mr Kang. - Yes?
I brought Ms Oh's dress.
Okay.
Did she say a dress?
(Caller ID Restricted)
This way, please.
- Hello. - Hello.
Hello.
It's a pleasure to meet you.
Since we don't know your personal style yet,
we prepared dresses with different styles.
I see.
Here, we have a fancy pink dress.
If you prefer something simpler, this striped dress will be better.
Okay.
What is this?
You said you want to experience parties.
Number one, a Cinderella story with glamorous parties.
I heard you also wanted that.
I looked for a party you can attend wearing a dress.
Luckily, I got invited to a state dinner.
A state dinner?
It's at the Blue House. Pick a nice one.
The Blue House?
(Do Yoon)
Are you saying I'm going to the Blue House?
For your information, I like exposing dresses.
I think this one is the most exposing one.
No. Don't listen to him.
He's just kidding.
Yes. Did you find out?
They can't track down the location.
They don't know the location, and the number doesn't exist.
It's strange.
Who was the call from?
I killed your parents and your siblings.
I put them down...
with just four bullets.
I am a marksman just like you.
So you should find me.
Why would you die without finding me? You can't die now.
Look into it farther.
The 353rd report on W Project.
(Reports on W Project)
August, 2016.
Written by Kang Chul.
I'm discarding all the reports I've written so far.
From now on, I will work on a new hypothesis.
The killer...
exists.
(The killer exists.)
The killer definitely exists.
However,
he is physically unsubstantial...
since he wasn't given one.
Thus, he neither has a face nor identification.
- That's not it. - Shoot it!
He was created only to kill my family.
He doesn't have any sense of guilt towards killing.
He doesn't feel sadness...
or pleasure.
It's because he doesn't have personality.
Mum.
Dad.
His only role is to traumatise me...
and to make me engaged in solving violent crimes.
(Caller ID Restricted)
Hello?
Hello...
Where are you?
How did you come back to life?
(How did you come back to life?)
He appears only when he is needed for the story...
and disappears when he is not.
Anywhere...
in any way.
If the creator wants, he can appear any time...
without a context...
(He can appear any time without a context and commit ***.)
and commit ***.
Gosh. What is a state dinner by the way?
Don't people like prince of England go to that?
Would we be dancing? Dancing?
I can't dance. Gosh.
Would we be dancing waltz?
Gosh. I can't do this. This is crazy.
Can I come in?
How do I look?
They said it suits me the best.
It's her turn now.
I'll put a bullet in her head.
Wait for it.
I guess I look bad. It's really bad.
Don't say anything. I got it.
Go back.
I'm going already.
Do I look that bad?
Go home. It's dangerous here.
What?
Is there any way you can go back?
I can't go back all of a sudden.
I can't go back whenever I want to.
What's the matter?
What is it?
Smile when you get off later. They'll take pictures of you.
I don't think I can do this.
I'm not good at things like this.
Just hold my hand and follow me, okay?
- Here! - Please look here!
- Please look here! - Over here!
You two look beautiful together.
How do you feel to be invited to the state dinner?
Please tell us.
- Please look here! - Let us take your picture!
- Here! - Please look here!
Ma'am, are you all right?
- I'm all right. - Wait one moment.
No, I'm all right.
It's okay. I'll do it.
What's going on?
She fell off the bed while sleeping.
Are you all right?
Yes, I'm fine.
Okay, you can leave.
Why did you fall off the bed?
I was just dreaming.
What kind of dream?
It was a very sweet dream.
Was it a very sweet dream?
Did you not sleep?
I think it's almost 3am.
Everyone is watching out for you,
so don't worry and go back to sleep.
By the way,
is the security guard necessary?
The door's open, and I feel like people are looking at me,
so I can't sleep well.
We don't know when he'll appear, so we can't do anything else.
I don't die here.
I can't ever die here.
I'm invincible here.
What's there to worry about no matter what the killer said?
Variables.
There are always variables in the world.
Who knew the killer would appear suddenly?
There's nothing else we can do until we find where he is.
Go back to sleep.
Do I have to continue living like this?
I can't go to the party, can I?
I cancelled it already.
I just got out of prison,
but I'm trapped in here again.
I can't even go outside.
You told me to mark sweet things you'll do for me.
You said we'll go grocery shopping.
You said we'll do 10 things a day, but we haven't done a thing.
We...
can't go outside, but why don't we do something we can do in here?
Aren't you hungry? I am.
- Shall I call someone? - It's okay.
I have to do it.
You can go outside.
Wait a minute.
To be honest,
I know how to cook only one thing.
What is it?
It's ramyeon.
- Is that cooking? - That's my favourite food.
Okay, let's just eat ramyeon and call it even.
Okay.
Where's the ramyeon?
Where's the ramyeon?
That's the oven.
Why are you opening that?
Oh, that's right.
It's usually kept here.
Here it is.
You're right.
Move out of the way. I'll make it.
I have to cook so that I finish one of my tasks.
I don't think we can call it even.
Make me a proper dish later after you study.
Okay.
Are there eggs and spring onions?
- Do you want eggs in it? - Yes.
Here they are.
There's something I don't understand.
Why did your father do that?
How could he order the killer...
to kill his own daughter?
That character always follows your father's orders.
I don't know,
but would my dad do that?
Then who else?
I'm not sure, but there's no way my dad drew it.
Why would he?
Plus, Dad said he'd never draw again...
Are you all right?
Call the nurse.
Just bring me some medicine. I'll take care of it.
Why would you call a nurse for this?
What's wrong?
- Why are you bleeding? - What?
You shouldn't bleed at all,
but why are you bleeding?
This means...
you'll also die if you get shot.
(To be continued)
President Kang, I brought some medicine.
It's okay. Her bleeding stopped.
Go back downstairs, and come back when I call you.
What's going on? Why am I bleeding?
Variables.
There are always variables in the world.
(I see you have a new family now.)
(It's her turn now.)
(I'll put a bullet in her head.)
Does the killer...
know about me?
How?
What's going on? What changed?
Why are there variables now?
What's the context?
Please leave a message after the beep.
I wonder if Dad hasn't arrived yet.
(So Hee)
Hello?
Are you sleeping?
No. What's up at this hour?
Can't I call at this hour?
Oh, I see.
Is it because your wife is beside you?
Are you drunk?
Is Yeon Joo...
sleeping beside you right now?
I really can't imagine it.
Are you...
Are you really married?
I know. Yes.
You've done nothing wrong.
You never promised me anything.
But I was so slow-witted.
I thought everything would turn out well when I waited.
I was just stupid.
But I'm not the only one who thought like that.
Everyone...
thought like me.
So Hee.
Who am I to you?
Who am I to you?
Who was I to you?
What?
What?
My hand...
What's wrong with it?
Hello?
Hello, So Hee?
Her hand disappeared?
Like a ghost,
she was translucent.
It doesn't make sense, but I definitely saw it.
Characters.
So you should find me.
Why would you die without finding me? You can't die now.
The purpose of the characters.
(Kang Chul, the main character)
(Yoon So Hee, Chul's friend and personal assistant)
The first purpose of the characters are to deliver the story.
(The real murderer, an unknown man)
The W project ends here.
When the purpose is gone,
the character disappears.
They disappear forever.
On the contrary, when a character's purpose becomes clearer...
Wear the ring first.
Is this a wedding ring?
Are you all right?
Then the character becomes one of the main characters...
by force.
No way.
Have I become a real cartoon character?
Because I married the protagonist?
Is that why I bleed and I can actually die?
Then how about the killer?
Why doesn't he cease to exist when his purpose is gone?
Where are you?
How did you come back to life?
Did he revive himself?
Did he awaken?
Like me?
Is the killer...
in the outside world?
Let's drink.
River flows
My gosh!
Hey, who are you?
Move! Clear the way!
- Where is this? - My goodness!
Where am I?
Where is Chul?
Who are you?
I don't know!
Save me! Save me!
Save me!
(W ends with Chul's death leap.)
(The identity of the killer remains unknown.)
(It's the vainest ending.)
The killer followed me to the reality and found out the truth.
When he realised that he doesn't exist,
he became furious.
The one who wanted the killer's identity to be revealed...
even more than me was...
the killer himself.
He's dead?
Chul is really dead?
Who said he could die?
I've waited so long for him.
I've waited 10 years.
I've been waiting for him to find me.
So how can it end?
How can this be the end of it?
He found out about my death only later and became furious.
Did the water pipes break in the toilet?
(The end)
(To be continued)
He stopped W from ending.
He wanted to end it with me.
Wait. Someone is there.
Hello! Why are you there?
It's dangerous there.
And now,
he is still wondering around there...
because he doesn't know how to come back.
He must be worried. What should I do?
Who would call at this hour?
Hello?
Hello?
You. Are you back?
(Are you back?)
(Are you back?)
You are Seong Moo's daughter, aren't you?
(You are Seong Moo's daughter, aren't you?)
You are Yeon Joo, right?
You are the girl who married Chul.
(You are the girl who married Chul.)
(Mr Oh Seong Moo's house)
(Emergency contact list for the show personnel)
- Really? - Good morning, Soo Yeon.
She's sleeping.
She must've gotten a lot of complaint calls yesterday.
Hey, Soo ***!
Wake up, Soo ***! Wake up now!
- What's wrong? - Wake up! We have to run!
What? What's wrong with you?
Where is the car key?
- Find the car key! - What's going on?
You should first tell me what's going on!
- What's going on? - Hurry up!
- Did you find the key? - But what's happening?
- Hurry! - What's wrong?
Tell me what's going on!
Hurry up!
What's going on?
Hurry!
Gosh!
Go. Hurry up!
Gosh, I got it. Let me start the car first.
Yeon Joo. Do I just keep going? Where are we going?
Just go as far from the house as you can.
Gosh, you're driving me crazy. What is it now?
I'm tired of going through things like this now.
I think nothing will surprise me now.
Don't answer your phone.
Don't answer calls from unknown numbers, okay?
Who would call me?
The killer is...
- looking for me. - What are you talking about?
Go... Go back.
Go back.
Who is that?
Isn't that a gun? It's a gun.
That's a gun, Yeon Joo!
- Back up! - It's a gun!
- Let go of my hand! - Hurry up!
Let go of my hand.
- What is that? - Gosh.
Did you check the bathroom?
She's not there.
I'm here.
Mr Kang.
Was that Ms Oh?
Yes. I found her.
Are you okay?
- Are you hurt? - I...
I almost got killed.
The killer took a shot at me.
Where?
He called my dad's house, and I answered it.
He showed up right away after a few minutes.
I was running away from him, and he took a shot at me.
I came here right before it hit me.
What about Soo ***?
- Who is Soo ***? - He's my dad's pupil.
He was in the car with me.
Please don't kill me! I'm so sorry. Please!
I'll be a better person. I'm sorry.
Please spare my life!
Please don't kill me.
I'm sorry.
Yeon Joo?
What if he shot Soo ***?
He's after you. He won't hurt him without a reason.
I'm worried about my mum.
What if he goes to my mum's place looking for me?
Goodness.
Soo ***! Are you okay?
Are you okay?
I was on my way to Seong Moo's house.
Isn't Yeon Joo there?
- Ms Gil. - Yes?
Ms Gil. You can't go there. Go somewhere else.
- You should go that way. - What's wrong with you?
You'll get shot if you go this way.
- You'll get shot. Go left. - Oh, my.
- I'm sorry. Just trust me, please. - What are you doing?
Go left. Just hurry up and go.
- What's wrong with you? - Please go now.
(Arrival in Seoul on August 15)
Excuse me.
- You're Mr Oh Seong Moo, right? - Yes.
I'm a big fan. Can I get your autograph?
I wasn't sure if it was you.
I heard you were badly injured. I guess you've recovered.
I'm fine now.
Is W really over?
Are you planning a sequel?
I just like your work so much.
It was a pleasure.
Ladies and gentleman,
we will be arriving...
at Auckland International Airport in 30 minutes.
Are we here? Gosh, this is so tiring.
Ladies and gentlemen,
we will be arriving at Auckland International Airport in 30 minutes.
Who are you?
(Who are you?)
Who am I?
(Who am I?)
Where is Chul?
Who am I? Why aren't you telling me who I am?
Who am I?
Help me find who I am.
Sir. Is everything okay?
Sir. Are you okay?
Sir.
Didn't your father tell you anything?
No.
I can't call him. He's still on the plane.
Where were you going?
Isn't this So Hee's place? I saw it on the book often.
So Hee, it's me. Open the door.
- So Hee. - What's going on?
- Do you know the password? - What?
Is there anything you remember from the book?
Please eat. Why can't you eat?
Aren't you hungry?
Oh, dear. What is that?
Don't we look good together?
Yeon Joo.
He's obsessing over So Hee.
- He's making crazy connections. - How?
So Hee lives in Room 702.
It's because my birthday is July 2.
So Hee sets every password to 2405.
It's my mobile phone number.
So Hee can't escape from me.
So Hee, you're mine.
Gosh, what is that? That's pathetic.
She's right. You're so pathetic.
Look who's talking.
It's 2405. Her password is 2405.
Stay here. Don't come in.
So Hee.
Chul.
I think I'm going to die.
What's wrong with me?
My hands are disappearing. Look at this.
(Her hand disappeared?)
My legs are gone too.
What's happening to me?
It's because you're drunk. There's nothing wrong with you.
Is it because I'm drunk?
Yes, you're drunk.
Let's get up.
It's a wedding ring.
You're really wearing it.
You really got married.
- So Hee. - I thought I'd marry you one day,
but what am I?
What am I?
What am I? What am I?
It's a misunderstanding, So Hee.
You know it's a fake marriage.
It's all fake. There's nothing going on between us.
It's a misunderstanding?
Yes, it is.
What are you worried about?
You're very precious to me.
You're the closest person to me.
I need you for the rest of my life.
You need me?
Of course.
You can't leave.
Am I not dying?
Why would you die? That won't happen.
You're drunk now.
Everything will be fine after you get some sleep.
Really?
Yes, really.
I'm going to study computer engineering.
Aren't you going to shoot?
That was just a hobby.
I was hoping for your second gold medal in the Olympics.
Your dad will be disappointed.
I can become the world champion in computers.
Gosh, hey.
You aren't a genius who can do anything.
Yes, I'm a genius.
I'm a genius. Didn't you know?
What?
Why you...
Hey.
Come here.
You're such a rascal.
I forgot about it,
but So Hee was the female lead character.
This happened because of me.
It's a horrible fate that your father created.
The set-up for a character.
Reason for the character's existence.
Isn't it cruel...
how there is only one reason...
for our existence?
We're also human.
It's a mess.
This isn't the sequel I was hoping for.
(Dear Oh Seong Moo)
Dear Oh Seong Moo.
What are you doing?
I'm tying your shoelaces.
Here is my chance.
Did I do four sweet things now?
This isn't the time to do your tasks.
We're going to get some fresh air.
Isn't this place...
Do you remember?
This is the place. Didn't you fall around here?
I was so startled because I thought you were going to die.
You're lucky...
that you met such a skilled doctor like me then.
I was lucky indeed.
Promise me one thing.
When you leave this world again,
can you draw me something?
Draw you what?
A dream.
A dream?
A scene where I'm waking up from a dream.
Make everything that happened two months ago when we met...
to this moment a dream.
Make all of what happened a long dream.
It isn't hard, is it?
It shouldn't be when you brought me back to life.
That's the only way for now no matter how much I think about it.
Going back to the time before I thought you were the key to my life.
I met you here for the first time.
We must find her.
I think she has the key to my life.
I started to wonder about you and looked for you.
Then you kept being pulled into this world.
Inside a webtoon.
This is inside a webtoon.
You're the lead character of that webtoon.
I learned the truth I shouldn't know because of you.
I met your father.
I did things I shouldn't do.
The killer followed me then...
and is making a mess in your world too.
My friend is close to disappearing.
Here's the most important thing.
You shouldn't die.
I can't see that with my own eyes.
Everything will be solved if we go back to when we didn't meet.
If I don't know you, I wouldn't look for you.
I wouldn't think about you either.
Then you wouldn't be pulled into this world.
I wouldn't learn the truth from you.
I wouldn't shoot your father.
The killer wouldn't leave this world.
No one would be in danger.
Thank you for saving me.
I didn't know how I should live, but I know now.
I should live according to my fate.
If looking for the suspect I can't catch for the rest of my life...
is the reason for my existence, I'll have to continue.
What do you think?
Do you understand me?
I do.
Could you do that for me?
This is all a dream...
that I've had while I'm at the hospital.
A dream I can't even remember.
Promise me.
You have to do that immediately when you go back.
Don't hesitate at all.
He doesn't need to follow the story,
so he can appear any time.
Answer me. We don't have time.
He might be up to something as we speak.
He doesn't have character.
I...
promise you.
Okay then.
It's too bad that we only got to do four romantic things.
There were more than 100 romantic things to do.
I want to hug you,
but I can't even do that.
It will make me hesitate.
Are you going somewhere?
We're running out of time, and this is the only sure way.
Yeon Joo,
forget about me.
I am just a cartoon character.
When you miss me,
you can go to a bookstore and see me in the comic book.
Okay?
Take care.
According to the hospital, President Kang, who was...
attacked by an unknown man is now recovering...
in a stable state.
Currently, the hospital is surrounded by...
a swarm of people who are...
worried about President Kang.
The police are tracing the man...
who attacked President Kang,
but there is no clear evidence.
This is M News.
You're up.
How are you feeling?
- Did they find anything? - Not yet.
They are analysing the surveillance cameras, but it'll take some time.
You know how slow they are.
Did you cry?
- What? - Those look like tears.
I don't know. I think I had a dream.
It must've been a sad dream.
I don't remember. Can you get me some water?
Okay.
Anyway, your problem is that you are too reckless.
Why would you go up there alone? You were asking for it.
You got lucky because the waiter went up there.
Why would you meet him alone when you don't know him?
(W)
I will accept the darn fate...
you've given me.
Just like how I drew it,
- The ring is beautiful. - Chul forgot everything.
We can begin again now.
Chul will catch the killer and marry So Hee.
Nobody remembers me there,
and nobody here knows what I went through.
I called you because I want to end it right.
I thought of the killer's face.
He is the only one Chul would...
accept as the killer.
Yeon Joo?
