The junior manage to dodge the bullet that being return by rolling his body off from the table.

"I guess im just gonna wipe them all out right here." said the red-haired man while raising his hand straight in front towards Seo-woo and the reinforcements.
Seo-ha, who was taking care of the other enemy troops, heard this and immediately attacked the redhead. He was seen shooting once, but when the bullet stopped, it turned out there was a second bullet.
*Redhead=red-haired*
The second bullet blew off the edge of the bridge and made the redhead fall, but before he fell he turned the bullet very hard.

"Now..i already told you, right..." said Park Min-ji who was lying limply in Lee Hyun-woo's arms while raising her hand to wipe Lee Hyun-woo's tears.
"I am happy with you...wherever, whenever..even until the last star in the sky lose its light..im happy, my star." said Park Min-ji which made Lee Hyun-woo's face smile a little only for Park Min-ji to start closing her eyes slowly.
Lee Hyun-woo held Park Min-ji's hand tightly, and kissed it while saying "so am i..my love, you are the only light that i needed." said Lee Hyun-woo, who put on a serious face as he slowly placed Park Min-ji down.
Teo woo-ji was also holding Seo-ha who was lying on the ground in one of his hands, Seo-ha was also no longer breathing.
The war on the bridge continues, the feeling of loss...emptiness, guilt and revenge.
When Lee Hyun-woo wanted to move and wanted revenge, Teo woo-ji stopped him. "That's not gonna change a thing now...that redhead will come back up, and it will all be in vain.."said Teo Woo-ji and the redhead was seen trying to climb back up with the rope given to him by his troops.

"Dad! What is happening there?! And what took you so long to answer?!"Seo-woo asked over the phone looking worried.
Lee Hyun-woo's face started to turn sad and frustrated, he was silent for a moment, confused about what to say.
"Dad say something!" Seo-woo is still asking over the phone not knowing that it is Lee Hyun-woo who picks up.
Lee Hyun-woo's tears started to fall as he said "I..sorry..I couldn't save them.." These words made Seo-woo's face change to one of anger and loss.
"No..good work for now." Seo-woo said quietly as he turn off the phone call, and turns out Lee Ji-woo were there in the back seat looking sad and loss.
Lee Hyun-woo is seen sitting leaning against the road divider still holding the phone in his lap.
Seo-woo and Lee Ji-woo arrived at the scene, Lee Ji-woo fall on her knees and started to cry while Seo-woo just clench his fist tightly and gritted his teeth.
The sound of crying was heard loudly, many people were injured and died while Lee Hyun-woo still leaning on the road divider with the fire at the site of the explosion and the night looking sparkling.
Many felt a sense of loss at the tragedy, and the redhead was seen riding his speedboat with his troops, he was seen carrying Park Min-ji's body on the speedboat.
