“I wasn't gonna forget you. When I left you it hurt me so much. I felt like bleeding out. But I just started to accept that... that I would just continue to keep bleeding for the rest of my life, Sanho.”

JUN JI HYUN as SEO MUN JU

BAEK SANHO: I didn't think someone like you... could exist. Even the light looked different on you. That was the greatest day of my life. You were a shining beacon of hope for everyone, and I was asked to protect you. My whole life had been spent guarding people for money. Suddenly I was protecting someone precious to me. I know when you're most like yourself, Munju. And that's when you're trying to protect everyone's peace and happiness. I know that's who you really are. I'll keep protecting you, and only you. So don't quit. Please keep going, Munju. I'll be right there with you. SEO MUNJU: If I have eight minutes to live, I want to spend all eight of them with you. I want to be here. I don't need peace anymore. If I leave now, I'll be living in hell the rest of my life. Even if I get one minute with you, I'll come back.
