(All characters, organizations, locations,)
(and incidents in this drama are fictional.)
Mr. Bang.
Mr. Bang, where are you?
Oh Ji Hun, what is it? What's going on?
It's nothing. I just fell down and
Dong Sik
Hey, Dong Sik!
Dong Sik!
Dong Sik, come quick!
Dong Sik!
Dong Sik!
Where are you? Your flashlight!
Shine your flashlight toward the sky!
Dong Sik! Dong Sik!
Dong Sik!
Who on earth dumped this here?
There's a lot of trash.
(Manyang Farm)
Let's reduce!
- Let's reduce! - Let's reduce!
Food waste!
- Food waste! - Food waste!
(Munju Grocery)
(Even Though Injustice Attacks The World)
- Hello. - Thank you.
- The flowers go to the left. - All right.
- Thank you, Sister. - You're welcome.
- Your hair. - What?
What about my hair?
You must've done many good things in your previous life.
That's why you got a daughter like Yu Yeon.
Thank you.
We believe in the Lord. We don't believe in past lives.
She's pretty, kind, and deeply faithful.
She's even obedient to her parents.
And she got into Seoul National University.
But I guess the Lord is fair after all.
Those two were born as twins.
But Dong Sik is ruining it for one-half of them.
What's wrong with Dong Sik?
Well, I'm just saying.
He was born only a minute earlier, but he's still her big brother.
But let's face it. He's a long way behind her.
Look what he did today. Just look.
We're having a requiem mass for his grandmother, but he didn't come.
I bet he's playing his guitar somewhere or getting into a fight
Sister.
I told you not to put it there.
Why can't you do anything right? Hurry up.
Little brat.
Gosh, I can't believe him.
(Son)
(Bonjour Manyang)
Wanted to listen to the sound
So I turned on the radio
The fascinating rhythm
Captured my heart
I got up from my seat
Then I sang the song
Before I knew it
Time slipped by
Turn up the radio
Let's all sing along to it
Turn up the radio
Let's all sing together
Turn up the radio
Let's all sing along to it
Turn up the radio
Let's all sing together
Enough with the singing together.
Lee Dong Sik, stop singing and leave.
Darn it.
You can't do this to a customer.
It's a live cafe. So why can't I sing live here?
My dear customer.
All you get is coffee, which costs only 1.50 dollars.
And you've been hogging
that out-of-tune guitar for hours putting on an absurd performance.
Hey, I don't take nobodies like you as customers. Go away.
This isn't out of tune.
Dong Sik, something good is about to happen in my life today,
so go home while I'm being nice.
Bang Ju Seon!
I don't care what you say. The owner gave me permission.
"Bang Ju Seon"? You don't call someone older by their full name.
Hey, Dong Sik.
I don't care if you got permission. I don't want to hear it. Go away.
You're a boy, but you are nothing compared to your sister.
What did you just say?
Are you about to hit me?
Go ahead. Let me have your dad pay me some money.
Consider yourself lucky. I don't hit women.
Bang Ju Seon.
See you later.
You little punk.
(Excellence Award, Certificate of Appointment)
Dong Sik, where are you?
You'll get in huge trouble if you don't come home today.
Come on, Dong Sik.
(I don't want to go home. Can you come out?)
("Within the Year, Clinton will")
We will only trust our Lord
And live on
How many people
Goodness, what's
What's this?

(Episode 1: The Appearance)
(Dream City, Munju, Development Commission General Meeting)

("Dead Woman Turns Out To Be Live Cafe Employee Bang Ju Seon)

(Toward a town of dreams! Munju Dream Town!)
(Please help us find the missing Yu Yeon.)
(All 10 of her fingers are missing the tip joint.)
(Please help us find the missing Yu Yeon.)
This is Officer 1. Officer 1.
An assault case at Salon de Manyang.
No, an attempted assault. No, it's Okay, whatever.
Dong Sik is I mean
- They bet 5 cents per 1 point. - Goodness.
Officer Lee is on the scene.
Hey, listen to yourself. I'm not your friend!
- You better show some manners! - Come here!
Hey!
They play hwatu for a cent per point.
What do you mean, an attempted assault?
Well, today, the stakes were
five cents per point.
Hey, you hid that 11-card
under your huge bottom?
Did you want to win that badly
as soon as we raised the ante to five cents, you fraud?
A fraud?
You must think you're a big shot because your husband is a cop.
I'll beat you up and go with him. Take this!
- Take this. - Ma'am, stop. You need to stop.
This is considered an assault, and you'll be the instigator.
Officer Lee, imagine how wronged I must have been to do this.
As soon as my points were about to quadruple,
she suddenly framed me as a fraud!
- But you hid the card. - You are a fraud.
- Don't put it like that. - It was a fraud!
That's enough. Be quiet.
See that? Everyone saw how you tried to pull that trick.
Gosh, would I try to con you over just 87 cents?
You'd do something like that
because your husband makes pennies as an assistant inspector.
- I'm not on your level, am I? - Stop it!
- No, they aren't fighting. - What did you just say?
- You! - Hey, stop it. You need to stop.
Dong Sik, she just attacked my family.
- Goodness. - You can't do that.
Her hair won't get permed if you take it off now.
If you take it off, you need to pay her the money.
It's 50 dollars.
She used the good products.
There's a new one.
Go ahead and take it off.
- Do it! - Ma'am!
Do not instigate a criminal act.
She can't pull your hair out because she doesn't have 50 dollars.
Life is that tough, you know.
Ladies, you need to stay silent.
And loosen your fists, okay?
- Okay. - Okay?
I told you to bring it on.
- You can't do that! Don't do it. - My goodness, what's with you?
Okay, fine. 50 dollars?
I'll pay you that money!
Officer 1. This is Officer 1. This is bad.
Officer Lee's nut gauge is shooting up.
- Stop it! - You!
We were about to get off in an hour.
Darn it, I knew they've been too quiet lately.
My gosh, Dong Sik and his nut gauge.
- What are you doing? - Silence!
As of now, everyone in this room is
immediately under arrest for fraud, assault, gambling,
and aiding and abetting in gambling.
- What's this nonsense? - Arrested? What?
Why should I go to the police station?
I just watched, that's all.
Many of you seem to collect criminal records as a hobby.
You can keep talking if you wish to tack on obstruction of justice.
- Gosh. - I just
You two, get in the patrol car.
The rest of you can grab a car and follow us.
- Dong Sik! - I just watched!
Don't you dare go anywhere else.
I'll charge you for fleeing too.
It's not like I played hwatu.
I was just there
running my business as usual, Chief.
- I didn't do anything! - Yes, hey. I know that. I do.
Dong Sik, this isn't a criminal case of any sort.
Why are you turning this into such a big deal? Are you bored?
Why isn't this a criminal case?
Starting a gambling den and aiding and abetting gambling.
Under Article 247 of the Criminal Code,
the person who sets a gambling site
may face up to five years of prison or a fine of 30,000 dollars.
Am I going to jail then?
Officer Lee, Article 247 of the Criminal Code
only applies to those who set up a gambling site for profit.
Don't you see the black plastic bag on the salon owner's head?
It means she's getting a cut of the winnings at the game today.
How do we call that profit?
They were just playing for some pennies.
Pennies are money too.
1 and 2 cents add up to 10 and 20 cents.
10 and 20 cents add up to 1 and 2 dollars.
Many a mickle makes a muckle.
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
What on earth is going on?
Profit, my foot.
Why don't you just ban card games then?
- She's right. - Chief.
Honey, will you just sit back and watch like that?
- Do something. - Fine.
Goodness, Dong Sik. Fine.
My wife has a weak heart. She shouldn't get too upset.
Please do me a favor and let it slide this time.
Don't be like this. This is illegal soliciting.
Officer Cho, do you want to be arrested for illegal soliciting?
Gosh, you really are a nut!
- Fine! Arrest me! Go on! Arrest me! - Hey, hold him.
- Your name, birthdate, and address. - You have a guest.
He's young.
How may I help you, sir?
Are you lost?
Nice to meet you.
I've been transferred to Manyang Police Substation.
I'm Inspector Han Ju Won.
- Your name, birthdate, and address. - You have a guest.
He's young.
How may I help you, sir?
Are you lost?
Hello.
I've been transferred to Manyang Police Substation.
I'm Inspector Han Ju Won.
(Chief's office)
I did get a text that you were coming.
I was wondering why the headquarters texted me. They never do that.
I thought it was a joke when they said they'd send us another officer.
- I hope we get along. - Okay.
Let me see. Where's the handover report?
Wait. It's not today.
Why did you come so early?
I heard you requested an officer a long time ago.
I don't like to waste time.
I see. Right.
It's been over a year since I put in the request.
Who is my partner?
Darn it. The computer just crashed.
When will they get this piece of trash replaced?
I'm sorry. Please give me a minute.
Gosh, I need to turn it on again.
Darn it.
All right. It's all over now.
Inspector Han Ju Won.
27 years old. The only son in the family.
Entered Korean National Police University as a top student.
Graduated summa cum laude.
Gosh. Summa cum laude from Korea National Police University?
That means he was really smart.
You can't do that just because you're smart.
To graduate summa cum laude,
one needs to get almost full marks on the fitness test too.
And he's even good-looking.
Whoever his parents are, they must be full without eating.
Those who are great are always from rich families nowadays.
His father is
the Chief Superintendent at headquarters.
- What? - Who?
He will be the next Commissioner General.
He's the number two of the Korean Police,
Chief Superintendent Han Gi Hwan's son.
(Manyang Substation of Gyeonggi Munju Police Station)
I can't reach him since last night.
And he didn't come home last night.
Why can't I report him missing?
Sir, please calm down.
I just asked you if your son usually comes home.
Didn't I?
And you said he doesn't.
They thought that woman went missing,
but it turned out that she was murdered.
Well, with that case That's a woman.
And your son is a man.
How can you be sure that men won't get murdered?
I'll report him missing.
He said this happens often.
And it's not a woman. It's a man.
You know we wait for a couple of days in this case.
Chief.
Let me help you report a runaway.
"Runaway"? What are you talking about?
Are you saying my son ran away?
It's possible that he just went missing.
But let's report this as a runaway case for now.
Runaway? He went missing.
I'm here to report a missing person.
I'm afraid you can't, sir.
Why? Because he's not a woman?
Even if your son is a woman, you can't.
This is ridiculous.
If you don't want to take the report, just say you don't.
It's not like this is the only police substation in the country.
No matter which police station, substation, patrol division,
or even police agency you go to,
your son Well, even if it's your daughter,
you can't report your child missing.
- What? - Act on the Protection
and Support of Missing Children, Article Two.
The term "child" refers to a child under the age of 18
a person with an intellectual, autistic, or mental disability,
or a dementia patient. Only then you can report the "child" missing.
And whether to investigate the case must be decided without delay.
This is the only law in Korea regarding missing people.
Does your son apply to any of the cases I mentioned just now?
Well
No, but
Even if your son went missing,
in the Republic of Korea, he's a man who ran away from home.
He ran away.
Officer Lee Dong Sik.
He seems to know the law very well.
31G 8305.
Nice car.
(Korean beef only)
(Manyang Butcher Shop)
Hey, Oh Ji Hun.
Darn it.
All right. Here's your meal.
You arrested six ladies today.
How could you have an appetite for soup?
Jae Yi, today's soup is very refreshing. I love it.
You basically destroyed 6 households in 1 village.
And you like the soup?
I knew it. Dong Sik, you're such a great friend.
I respect you.
Then fill my glass with respect.
I know you two are best friends,
but you can't do this.
You're practically abusing governmental power.
Oh, my gosh. Jae Yi.
Officer Oh just said Dong Sik was abusing governmental power.
Hey, Oh Ji Hun. You've gotten pretty big.
Am I wrong?
I am right, though. Right?
Of course. Whatever you say, Officer Oh.
- Arrest me now. - Come on, Dong Sik!
What's going on?
Why is the rookie so loud?
Hey, Ji Hwa.
I can't believe you got off work this early.
I'm guessing Violent Crimes was pretty quiet today too.
I can't believe
I ran into the officer in Munju who always leaves work on time.
- It's an honor. - At ease.
What's with your wrist? Did you get into trouble again?
What trouble?
Ji Hwa, Dong Sik's nut gauge shot up to the end today.
Then arrested those ladies who gambled at five cents per point?
I heard they filed a complaint.
See that? They won't get indicted for betting five cents per point.
The case can't be indicted, so why did Dong Sik do that?
The lady of the hair salon
seems to be involved financially with some out-of-towners.
They didn't look very decent.
He broke off the game because he got worried
they'll continue to get involved with them and get in trouble.
Really? I didn't know that.
Once again, he's pretending like he didn't mean to.
Ji Hun, didn't I tell you to trust your partner
no matter what he does?
- Don't beat up my partner. - He's my brother.
I'm teaching him some manners.
- You idiot. - Hey.
I'll let her hit me to get a grip.
Get a grip, will you?
I don't qualify anyway.
I may not be his partner in a few days.
What do you mean?
We got a new inspector.
He's not my type, though.
Why not? Because of his rad credentials?
Rad? What is that? How rad is he?
He went to the National Police University.
He didn't just graduate from that place.
A guy with his connections can't end up in a rural area like this.
I really don't get it.
How big are his connections?
Is he the son of the Commissioner General or something?
Soon, probably.
He's the son of the next Commissioner General.
The next Commissioner General?
The deputy chief of headquarters, Han Gi Hwan.
("The Missing Case of University Student Comes to a Halt")
(The case comes to a halt after 4 months and 16 days.)
(Han Gi Hwan)
You're dismissed.
Attention. Salute.
At ease.
I'll drive.
Do you not like it?
I had a lot.
The office in Seoul is disappointed
that you decided to go to the west of Gyeonggi Province.
We still have time to revoke your decision.
You don't have to use your power at this important time.
Then you shouldn't have done this
to make me do something at this important time.
You just have to stick around
until this term is over. That's all.
- After that - I'll go back to Foreign Affairs.
Ju Won, you need to pull yourself together.
How dare you say you wish to go back?
Lie low.
Ju Won.
Yes, Father.
(31G 8305)
Your car is the only one of its kind in this town, so you'll stand out.
So what?
I didn't get to introduce myself formally last time.
I'm Assistant Inspector Lee Dong Sik of Team One.
I don't like touching other people's hands.
I'm Han Ju Won.
What a feisty little young master.
Now that we have Inspector Han with us,
shouldn't we reorganize our teams?
Yes, Inspector Hwang?
- I volunteer. - To do what?
There's no one else here who is more informed than I am.
I'll inform Inspector Han
of every single detail regarding our jurisdiction
You can't do that.
We only have two inspectors in our police station,
so it'd be odd if you two worked as a team.
Right?
I'm a petty officer, so let me volunteer.
I'll assist Inspector Han as much as I can and learn a lot from him.
Goodness, Officer Oh. I'm very proud of you.
Gosh, we already have two volunteers?
You're a popular guy, Inspector Han.
I'm glad to death.
You said he wasn't your type.
I'll make the sacrifice.
You little punk.
What? What did you say?
- Did you say you want to volunteer? - No.
- Are you sure? - No, never.
I don't want him either.
I don't have a thing for nut cases.
I see.
In that case
I'll just go with whatever you say.
It'll be an honor to assist Inspector Han.
Okay, then. I've come to a decision.
Han Ju Won and Lee Dong Sik, you are Team One.
- What? - What?
Why not?
You two are the only people who hate each other.
So once you two hit it off,
the teamwork here will be perfect. Don't you think?
Officer Oh, you'll take calls for a while
and keep the place nice and tidy, okay?
All right, Team One. Time to go on a patrol.
Chief Nam, you cannot create teams on your own call
Dong Sik, what are you doing?
I know you're just an assistant inspector
but think of all of your years with the police
compared to a much younger inspector.
Look at how absurd our discipline is.
This young inspector is trying to defy the chief,
and this assistant inspector is refusing to work with an inspector.
Inspector Han, I will serve you to the best of my abilities.
Good. This makes more sense.
Okay. Get to work.
Does the less experienced officer have to drive around here?
Gosh, you want to hold this disgusting steering wheel?
It's infested with germs.
You seemed like a wild driver.
So let me drive.
Did you just say I seem like a wild driver?
When you first got here a week ago,
you slammed on your accelerator as soon as the lights changed.
There are lots of elderly folks in this town.
If you continue to do that and cause anyone to get hurt,
it'll make my life difficult too.
I never did that.
Seven days ago,
around 19:20,
it was the first crosswalk you see right after Manyang Substation.
License plate number 31G 8305.
I saw you.
And I'm sure you saw me crossing the road too.
Should I go find the security footage from the crosswalk?
Inspector Han.
Be careful.
There are no secrets around here.
Someone is always watching
from somewhere.
Hello?
Goodness. When?
Okay. I'll be there.
What are you doing in the middle of patrol?
I'm on my way after receiving a report.
Someone called in a report on your personal phone? No way.
Does the substation have any idea
that you've been taking reports on your personal phone?
It's not like I'm going outside our jurisdiction.
If it doesn't feel right, you can radio back to make a report.
Hold on tight.
Didn't you just say I'm a wild driver?
Bang Wu Cheol, 74 years old, a patient with advanced dementia.
He should be somewhere in the middle of the reed field.
But he may have collapsed on his way.
You can begin your search starting here.
I'll go that way.
How do you know he's here? Let's check the security footage.
It's a redevelopment area. What security footage?
Darn it.
Mr. Bang Wu Cheol!
Sir!
Mr. Bang Wu Cheol.
Mr. Bang.
Sir.
Mr. Bang!
Is he even here?
He didn't even get the information by radio.
Is he
Officer Lee, are you playing a game with me?
You should've ducked down.
Why would you just stand in front of a gust of wind? Gosh.
Do you need to be slapped in the face to get your act together?
- What did you just say? - Why are you hesitating?
We should go find the old man.
Is Bang Wu Cheol even a real person?
Mr. Bang.
Dong Sik.
Let's go home.
My youngest daughter, Ju Seon.
My sweetheart hasn't come home yet. I have to wait for her.
My goodness. Let's go home.
Who's that?
- I'm Inspector Han Ju Won from - Don't.
What?
You're police officers? Go away.
Sir, sir.
Sir, it's not true. You know me. I'm Dong Sik.
Just stay right there.
I'll take you home. All right?
Don't come near me. Go away!
- You little scumbags. - Sir. Sir!
Sir!
- Don't come near me. - Sir!
- Don't follow me. - Sir!
- Don't follow me! - Sir.
Let go of me.
- Go away! Leave me alone! - Just stay still.
My goodness. Please just stay still.
Hold his legs. Come on. Hold his legs!
- Go away! - My goodness.
Just stay still. You're going to hurt yourself.
Sir.
Let go of me. Let go!
Sir. Look at me. It's me.
It's okay.
My goodness. This won't do.
The latch is loose.
The old man's so strong.
He shakes the door to open it.
He gets even more aggressive in October.
I'll get a stronger one from the hardware store.
You do that. You should've done that earlier.
What? Do you think I'm shameless?
Ma'am.
Don't make a report on his personal phone from now on.
- What? - Hey, you can call me.
Officer Lee.
You should go inside. He must be exhausted.
You're sick of this too, aren't you?
You want him to be sent to a nursing home, don't you?
- I never even thought of that. - Well, I did.
I think about it at least a dozen times a day, every day.
What was that?
It seems like she has some dirt on you.
You should go and get cleaned up.
Mr. Bang is really strong you know.
Inspector Han, you must've gone through a lot on your first day.
You can't call that a lot.
He's working on the frontline of public welfare.
So sometimes, he'll get some mud or dog poop on his shoes.
Didn't your colleagues who went through shift rotation tell you?
I don't have any close colleagues.
And you don't need one?
- No. - Why not?
If we're from the same region or we went to the same school,
or if they show kindness even when I don't want it,
they always try to figure out what I have at team dinners.
They ask questions to find out what kind of background I have.
Eventually, they ask me to pull some strings for them.
But I don't like that kind of stuff.
Is it that simple?
It's funny how people around you always want something from you.
It makes me wonder if people really are after the same thing.
I wonder just how great your connections are
to make you the most stubborn man in the world.
It's possible that people around him really ask for lots of favors.
Yes, you all know why.
His father is
still alive.
You should stop wiping your hands and have some tea.
Your nails are going to wear out.
No, thanks.
I don't use common supplies.
Do you have mysophobia?
A police officer with mysophobia? That's ridiculous.
Having mysophobia isn't that bad.
Mysophobia.
I don't have that.
It's just that I don't like unsanitary environments.
My goodness. What a relief.
Because we're having dinner after work.
But I was going to cancel it if you really have mysophobia.
Jae Yi's restaurant is quite clean.
So you don't have to worry.
(Manyang Butcher Shop)
(Chief Nam Sang Bae)
(Chief,)
(Chief, I don't think I can join today's team dinner.)
(Chief, I don't think I can ever join team dinners.)
Roll down the window.
Are you from Manyang Substation?
What?
I know that security camera is a piece of junk
but an officer can't park here.
- I'm not parking. - There's a parking lot in the back.
Park there.
It's in the back.
We need more drinks.
- Hey, Inspector Han. - Come and have a seat.
He's from Munju Police Station.
He's Park Jeong Je, the chief of general affairs.
His father is a member of the Munju City Council.
Why would you tell him that?
- I'm Inspector Park Jeong Je. - That's right.
I'm Han Ju Won.
Here's your wet tissue. Take it.
Have a seat, please.
Inspector Han, where is Officer Lee?
How am I supposed to know that?
He went to Mr. Kang's supermarket.
We're out of makgeolli and soju.
My goodness. You should take your partner with you.
You should stay with your partner 24 hours a day for 365 days a year.
You should even know the color of your partner's underwear.
Now you sound like a real police officer.
Did Inspector Oh teach you that?
Why would I teach him that?
You guys don't even change underwear when you're undercover for days.
So why would I want to know the color of it?
Maybe he taught him that.
I told him to count his partner's socks.
You understand way beyond what I teach you.
Gosh, Jin Mook is here.
Hello.
Inspector Han.
He is the most important man in Manyang.
Say hello. He's been assigned to our substation.
Inspector Han Ju Won.
And over there, he's the owner of Manyang Supermarket.
That's the only place that sells unpasteurized makgeolli in Munju.
Jin Mook, I'm always grateful.
Don't mention it.
Come join us. Have a drink.
No, no one's watching the store.
- Where is Min Jeong? - She has a lot of assignments,
so she's spending the night in Seoul.
- I see. - Enjoy your dinner.
She's only a freshman. She can't have that many assignments.
We haven't met, right?
I'm Detective Oh Ji Hwa of VCU 1 at Munju Police Station.
I'm that punk's sister.
I'm Han Ju Won.
He doesn't really look like his father.
I've seen Chief Superintendent Han a few times
when he was stationed at Munju Police station.
What's with this mood? Did I say something wrong?
I guess he doesn't want us to mention his father's name.
Why is that?
Is he Hong Gil Dong or something? Here, take it.
That's right. I've been meaning to ask you that.
So Chief Han is the chief superintendent general,
and I'm an assistant inspector,
Inspector, senior inspector, superintendent,
senior superintendent, superintendent general,
senior superintendent general, chief superintendent general.
He's seven ranks above me!
He's the second-in-command of Korea's police agency.
So you can't dare to mention his name.
I just don't like it.
Is that so wrong?
My father's name
is Lee Han Ok. It's Lee Han Ok.
Mention his name as much as you want.
Lee Han Ok, Lee Han Ok.
- My father's name - Nobody asked.
So what's his name?
His name is Cho Young Soo.
- Cho Young Soo, Cho Young Soo. - That's right! Father!
- Cheers, everyone. - Cheers!
You should sing a different song.
- Or memorize the words at least. - Sing it properly, Oh Ji Hun.

The chief hates it
when someone sneaks out.
So what?
Goodbye.
I don't think you answered my question earlier.
What kind of dirt does she have on you
that you can't say anything to her?
I killed someone.
I killed their youngest daughter.
How
How did you kill her?
It's just a joke, yet you're so serious.
You're the loner type.
That's good. I like you.
I'm not interested in being liked by you, Officer Lee.
I'll decide whom to like, okay?
Go home before the chief catches you.
The mighty Han Ju Won
got himself in a rathole.
You're having so much fun, aren't you?
"Fun"? No, I'm just so proud of you.
At this rate, you're going to become a real cop.
- Give me the file. - What file?
Prosecutor Kwon.
They had absolute control over the file.
I went a long way to get this.
Someone must've caused some real trouble, right?

(Tip joints of each finger cut off)
(Ankles tied in a rope with a knot)
Ju Won, I heard the youngest daughter of Soseong Trading
is visiting from the States.
It's a shame that it's not one of the top 50 richest companies,
but I hear she's pretty good-looking.
Of course, you'll need to ask your father first, right?
Why are you being so nosy?
Prosecutors these days must be really free.
I'm not interested.
I meant for me, not you.
Then why would you want to know my father's opinion?
You should ask your father.
Chief Superintendent Han I mean,
I don't want to fall short of Father's expectations.
"Father"?
Are you that desperate to be restricted by family?
It's not that great anyway.
It is great! You can't cut off family ties.
You know, I can't forget the day I became
your live-in tutor back when you were in high school.
Chief Superintendent Han met me only briefly,
but he sent me 20,000 dollars as a scholarship.
That's when I thought,
"I should become his son who never falls short of his expectations."
This is how I'm paying back
his grace.
You do that. I'm leaving.
Ju Won.
Fix that up and bring it back.
I'll help you.
Who's helping who?
Stay low until things die down.
Don't bring disgrace to my name.
Just become the commissioner general already
before I do something about it.

Lee Dong Sik.
This is his photo of when he was commissioned as an officer.
(Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency, Foreign Affairs Division)
20 years ago, in the early morning of October 15, 2000,
Lee Dong Sik's twin sister,
Lee Yu Yeon, who was 20 years old at the time,
went missing after leaving only 10 tip joints of her fingers.
And in the same morning, in the nearby reed field,
the body of Bang Ju Seon, who was 22 years old,
was found as well.
As you can see, her body is in a similar form
to the victims of the cases we are working on.
Lee Dong Sik
(Lee Dong Sik, working as assistant inspector)
(at Manyang Police Substation of Munju, Gyeonggi Province)
is working as an assistant inspector at Manyang Police Substation.
Wait. Isn't that Inspector Lee from the Regional Investigation Unit?
It is Inspector Lee Dong Sik.
He was famous for being a nut case.
An inspector from the Regional Investigation Unit?
Then why is he working as an assistant inspector at a substation?
Well, that's
He was a total psycho, that's why.
He couldn't explain how his partner died.
So the whole team got dismissed,
and he got demoted.
What a psycho. Why are you mentioning his name right now?
Lee Dong Sik
was involved in the murder of Bang Ju Seon
and the abduction of Lee Yu Yeon.
He was the suspect.
(Please help us find the missing Yu Yeon.)
Ji Hun, it's not straight.
Isn't that Inspector Han's car?
That car is so awesome.
He's indeed from a rich family.
Ji Hun, pull it up. Pull it up some more.
That side is fine. Just tie it.
(Please help us find the missing Yu Yeon.)
Hello?
Again? When?
Okay, I'm on my way now.
Ji Hun, let's go.
- Where? - Mr. Bang ran away again.
What?
Make sure to check it.
Inspector Han, stop! Don't come in. Go look for him right away.
- Sorry? - Mr. Bang ran away again.
Dong Sik and Ji Hun went to look for him also,
so go assist them. You know where the reed field is, right?
Why are you just standing there?
It rained yesterday, so it's extra hard to find him today. Go now.
Mr. Bang, where are you?
It's cold, Mr. Bang.
Mr. Bang.
I thought you were him.
What are you doing here?
I came to assist.
Don't annoy me again by getting lost.
Follow right behind me.
Mr. Bang, where are you?
Oh Ji Hun.
What is it? What's going on?
It's nothing.
I just fell down and
Dong Sik
Hey, Dong Sik!
Dong Sik!
Dong Sik, come quick!
Dong Sik!
Where are you? Your flashlight!
Shine your flashlight toward the sky!
Dong Sik! Dong Sik!
Dong Sik!
What is it? What?
Yu Yeon
What's going on?
Oh Ji Hun, go stay in the car.
Who is she?
Han Ju Won, you know who she is, right?
How do you know?
How do you know it's a woman from a skeleton?
Why don't you let this go and tell me,
Assistant Inspector Lee?
You should report it, Inspector Han.
You need to report that we found an unidentified body.
Is that all I need to report?
- Then what else is there? - A suspect
you're suspicious of.
Go ahead and report it if you have one.
Assistant Inspector Lee, I have something to ask you.
Lee Yu Yeon, your sister.
Are you sure you didn't kill her?
(We'd like to thank Lee Do Hyun for his special appearance.)
(Beyond Evil)
Why are you going this far?
Because it feels like an officer is suspecting me.
You said her fingertips were cut off, didn't you?
So it must've been about 20 years.
I don't know why and how
you became so interested in the case to come all the way here.
But just stay quiet.
If they find out who she is, both you and I will be in trouble.
I'm not asking. This is an order, Inspector Han.
It's been a cold case for 20 years. Don't you know what that means?
That means we don't have any evidence to identify the killer.
Did you take it?
Which part of me are you so interested in?
I guess it's not Lee Dong Sik, the police officer.
Is it Lee Dong Sik, the suspect?
(All characters, organizations, locations,)
(and incidents in this drama are fictional.)
Mr. Bang.
Mr. Bang, where are you?
Oh Ji Hun, what is it? What's going on?
It's nothing. I just fell down and

Hey, Dong Sik!
Dong Sik!
Dong Sik, come quick!

- Hello. - Thank you.
- The flowers go to the left. - All right.
- Thank you, Sister. - You're welcome.
- Your hair. - What?
What about my hair?
You must've done many good things in your previous life.
That's why you got a daughter like Yu Yeon.
Thank you.
We believe in the Lord. We don't believe in past lives.
She's pretty, kind, and deeply faithful.
She's even obedient to her parents.
And she got into Seoul National University.
But I guess the Lord is fair after all.
Those two were born as twins.
But Dong Sik is ruining it for one-half of them.
What's wrong with Dong Sik?
Well, I'm just saying.
He was born only a minute earlier, but he's still her big brother.
But let's face it. He's a long way behind her.
Look what he did today. Just look.
We're having a requiem mass for his grandmother, but he didn't come.
I bet he's playing his guitar somewhere or getting into a fight
Sister.
I told you not to put it there.
Why can't you do anything right? Hurry up.
Little brat.
Gosh, I can't believe him.

(Bonjour Manyang)
Wanted to listen to the sound
So I turned on the radio
The fascinating rhythm
Captured my heart
I got up from my seat
Then I sang the song
Before I knew it
Time slipped by
Turn up the radio
Let's all sing along to it
Turn up the radio
Let's all sing together
Turn up the radio
Let's all sing along to it
Turn up the radio
Let's all sing together
Enough with the singing together.
Lee Dong Sik, stop singing and leave.
Darn it.
You can't do this to a customer.
It's a live cafe. So why can't I sing live here?
My dear customer.
All you get is coffee, which costs only 1.50 dollars.
And you've been hogging
that out-of-tune guitar for hours putting on an absurd performance.
Hey, I don't take nobodies like you as customers. Go away.
This isn't out of tune.
Dong Sik, something good is about to happen in my life today,
so go home while I'm being nice.
Bang Ju Seon!
I don't care what you say. The owner gave me permission.
"Bang Ju Seon"? You don't call someone older by their full name.
Hey, Dong Sik.
I don't care if you got permission. I don't want to hear it. Go away.
You're a boy, but you are nothing compared to your sister.
What did you just say?
Are you about to hit me?
Go ahead. Let me have your dad pay me some money.
Consider yourself lucky. I don't hit women.
Bang Ju Seon.
See you later.
You little punk.

You'll get in huge trouble if you don't come home today.

This is Officer 1. Officer 1.
An assault case at Salon de Manyang.
No, an attempted assault. No, it's Okay, whatever.
Dong Sik is I mean
- They bet 5 cents per 1 point. - Goodness.
Officer Lee is on the scene.
Hey, listen to yourself. I'm not your friend!
- You better show some manners! - Come here!
Hey!
They play hwatu for a cent per point.
What do you mean, an attempted assault?
Well, today, the stakes were
five cents per point.
Hey, you hid that 11-card
under your huge bottom?
Did you want to win that badly
as soon as we raised the ante to five cents, you fraud?
A fraud?
You must think you're a big shot because your husband is a cop.
I'll beat you up and go with him. Take this!
- Take this. - Ma'am, stop. You need to stop.
This is considered an assault, and you'll be the instigator.
Officer Lee, imagine how wronged I must have been to do this.
As soon as my points were about to quadruple,
she suddenly framed me as a fraud!
- But you hid the card. - You are a fraud.
- Don't put it like that. - It was a fraud!
That's enough. Be quiet.
See that? Everyone saw how you tried to pull that trick.
Gosh, would I try to con you over just 87 cents?
You'd do something like that
because your husband makes pennies as an assistant inspector.
- I'm not on your level, am I? - Stop it!
- No, they aren't fighting. - What did you just say?
- You! - Hey, stop it. You need to stop.
Dong Sik, she just attacked my family.
- Goodness. - You can't do that.
Her hair won't get permed if you take it off now.
If you take it off, you need to pay her the money.
It's 50 dollars.
She used the good products.
There's a new one.
Go ahead and take it off.
- Do it! - Ma'am!
Do not instigate a criminal act.
She can't pull your hair out because she doesn't have 50 dollars.
Life is that tough, you know.
Ladies, you need to stay silent.
And loosen your fists, okay?
- Okay. - Okay?
I told you to bring it on.
- You can't do that! Don't do it. - My goodness, what's with you?
Okay, fine. 50 dollars?
I'll pay you that money!
Officer 1. This is Officer 1. This is bad.
Officer Lee's nut gauge is shooting up.
- Stop it! - You!
We were about to get off in an hour.
Darn it, I knew they've been too quiet lately.
My gosh, Dong Sik and his nut gauge.
- What are you doing? - Silence!
As of now, everyone in this room is
immediately under arrest for fraud, assault, gambling,
and aiding and abetting in gambling.
- What's this nonsense? - Arrested? What?
Why should I go to the police station?
I just watched, that's all.
Many of you seem to collect criminal records as a hobby.
You can keep talking if you wish to tack on obstruction of justice.
- Gosh. - I just
You two, get in the patrol car.
The rest of you can grab a car and follow us.
- Dong Sik! - I just watched!
Don't you dare go anywhere else.
I'll charge you for fleeing too.
It's not like I played hwatu.
I was just there
running my business as usual, Chief.
- I didn't do anything! - Yes, hey. I know that. I do.
Dong Sik, this isn't a criminal case of any sort.
Why are you turning this into such a big deal? Are you bored?
Why isn't this a criminal case?
Starting a gambling den and aiding and abetting gambling.
Under Article 247 of the Criminal Code,
the person who sets a gambling site
may face up to five years of prison or a fine of 30,000 dollars.
Am I going to jail then?
Officer Lee, Article 247 of the Criminal Code
only applies to those who set up a gambling site for profit.
Don't you see the black plastic bag on the salon owner's head?
It means she's getting a cut of the winnings at the game today.
How do we call that profit?
They were just playing for some pennies.
Pennies are money too.
1 and 2 cents add up to 10 and 20 cents.
10 and 20 cents add up to 1 and 2 dollars.
Many a mickle makes a muckle.
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
What on earth is going on?
Profit, my foot.
Why don't you just ban card games then?
- She's right. - Chief.
Honey, will you just sit back and watch like that?
- Do something. - Fine.
Goodness, Dong Sik. Fine.
My wife has a weak heart. She shouldn't get too upset.
Please do me a favor and let it slide this time.
Don't be like this. This is illegal soliciting.
Officer Cho, do you want to be arrested for illegal soliciting?
Gosh, you really are a nut!
- Fine! Arrest me! Go on! Arrest me! - Hey, hold him.
- Your name, birthdate, and address. - You have a guest.
He's young.
How may I help you, sir?
Are you lost?
Nice to meet you.

Are you lost?
Hello.
I've been transferred to Manyang Police Substation.
I'm Inspector Han Ju Won.
(Chief's office)
I did get a text that you were coming.
I was wondering why the headquarters texted me. They never do that.
I thought it was a joke when they said they'd send us another officer.
- I hope we get along. - Okay.
Let me see. Where's the handover report?
Wait. It's not today.
Why did you come so early?
I heard you requested an officer a long time ago.
I don't like to waste time.
I see. Right.
It's been over a year since I put in the request.
Who is my partner?
Darn it. The computer just crashed.
When will they get this piece of trash replaced?
I'm sorry. Please give me a minute.
Gosh, I need to turn it on again.

All right. It's all over now.
Inspector Han Ju Won.
27 years old. The only son in the family.
Entered Korean National Police University as a top student.
Graduated summa cum laude.
Gosh. Summa cum laude from Korea National Police University?
That means he was really smart.
You can't do that just because you're smart.
To graduate summa cum laude,
one needs to get almost full marks on the fitness test too.
And he's even good-looking.
Whoever his parents are, they must be full without eating.
Those who are great are always from rich families nowadays.
His father is
the Chief Superintendent at headquarters.
- What? - Who?
He will be the next Commissioner General.
He's the number two of the Korean Police,
Chief Superintendent Han Gi Hwan's son.
(Manyang Substation of Gyeonggi Munju Police Station)
I can't reach him since last night.
And he didn't come home last night.
Why can't I report him missing?
Sir, please calm down.
I just asked you if your son usually comes home.
Didn't I?
And you said he doesn't.
They thought that woman went missing,
but it turned out that she was murdered.
Well, with that case That's a woman.
And your son is a man.
How can you be sure that men won't get murdered?
I'll report him missing.
He said this happens often.
And it's not a woman. It's a man.
You know we wait for a couple of days in this case.
Chief.
Let me help you report a runaway.
"Runaway"? What are you talking about?
Are you saying my son ran away?
It's possible that he just went missing.
But let's report this as a runaway case for now.
Runaway? He went missing.
I'm here to report a missing person.
I'm afraid you can't, sir.
Why? Because he's not a woman?
Even if your son is a woman, you can't.
This is ridiculous.
If you don't want to take the report, just say you don't.
It's not like this is the only police substation in the country.
No matter which police station, substation, patrol division,
or even police agency you go to,
your son Well, even if it's your daughter,
you can't report your child missing.
- What? - Act on the Protection
and Support of Missing Children, Article Two.
The term "child" refers to a child under the age of 18
a person with an intellectual, autistic, or mental disability,
or a dementia patient. Only then you can report the "child" missing.
And whether to investigate the case must be decided without delay.
This is the only law in Korea regarding missing people.
Does your son apply to any of the cases I mentioned just now?
Well
No, but
Even if your son went missing,
in the Republic of Korea, he's a man who ran away from home.
He ran away.
Officer Lee Dong Sik.
He seems to know the law very well.

Hey, Oh Ji Hun.
Darn it.
All right. Here's your meal.
You arrested six ladies today.
How could you have an appetite for soup?
Jae Yi, today's soup is very refreshing. I love it.
You basically destroyed 6 households in 1 village.
And you like the soup?
I knew it. Dong Sik, you're such a great friend.
I respect you.
Then fill my glass with respect.
I know you two are best friends,
but you can't do this.
You're practically abusing governmental power.
Oh, my gosh. Jae Yi.
Officer Oh just said Dong Sik was abusing governmental power.
Hey, Oh Ji Hun. You've gotten pretty big.
Am I wrong?
I am right, though. Right?
Of course. Whatever you say, Officer Oh.
- Arrest me now. - Come on, Dong Sik!
What's going on?
Why is the rookie so loud?
Hey, Ji Hwa.
I can't believe you got off work this early.
I'm guessing Violent Crimes was pretty quiet today too.
I can't believe
I ran into the officer in Munju who always leaves work on time.
- It's an honor. - At ease.
What's with your wrist? Did you get into trouble again?
What trouble?
Ji Hwa, Dong Sik's nut gauge shot up to the end today.
Then arrested those ladies who gambled at five cents per point?
I heard they filed a complaint.
See that? They won't get indicted for betting five cents per point.
The case can't be indicted, so why did Dong Sik do that?
The lady of the hair salon
seems to be involved financially with some out-of-towners.
They didn't look very decent.
He broke off the game because he got worried
they'll continue to get involved with them and get in trouble.
Really? I didn't know that.
Once again, he's pretending like he didn't mean to.
Ji Hun, didn't I tell you to trust your partner
no matter what he does?
- Don't beat up my partner. - He's my brother.
I'm teaching him some manners.
- You idiot. - Hey.
I'll let her hit me to get a grip.
Get a grip, will you?
I don't qualify anyway.
I may not be his partner in a few days.
What do you mean?
We got a new inspector.
He's not my type, though.
Why not? Because of his rad credentials?
Rad? What is that? How rad is he?
He went to the National Police University.
He didn't just graduate from that place.
A guy with his connections can't end up in a rural area like this.
I really don't get it.
How big are his connections?
Is he the son of the Commissioner General or something?
Soon, probably.
He's the son of the next Commissioner General.
The next Commissioner General?
The deputy chief of headquarters, Han Gi Hwan.
("The Missing Case of University Student Comes to a Halt")
(The case comes to a halt after 4 months and 16 days.)

You're dismissed.
Attention. Salute.
At ease.
I'll drive.
Do you not like it?
I had a lot.
The office in Seoul is disappointed
that you decided to go to the west of Gyeonggi Province.
We still have time to revoke your decision.
You don't have to use your power at this important time.
Then you shouldn't have done this
to make me do something at this important time.
You just have to stick around
until this term is over. That's all.
- After that - I'll go back to Foreign Affairs.
Ju Won, you need to pull yourself together.
How dare you say you wish to go back?
Lie low.
Ju Won.
Yes, Father.
(31G 8305)
Your car is the only one of its kind in this town, so you'll stand out.
So what?
I didn't get to introduce myself formally last time.
I'm Assistant Inspector Lee Dong Sik of Team One.
I don't like touching other people's hands.
I'm Han Ju Won.
What a feisty little young master.
Now that we have Inspector Han with us,
shouldn't we reorganize our teams?
Yes, Inspector Hwang?
- I volunteer. - To do what?
There's no one else here who is more informed than I am.
I'll inform Inspector Han
of every single detail regarding our jurisdiction
You can't do that.
We only have two inspectors in our police station,
so it'd be odd if you two worked as a team.
Right?
I'm a petty officer, so let me volunteer.
I'll assist Inspector Han as much as I can and learn a lot from him.
Goodness, Officer Oh. I'm very proud of you.
Gosh, we already have two volunteers?
You're a popular guy, Inspector Han.
I'm glad to death.
You said he wasn't your type.
I'll make the sacrifice.
You little punk.
What? What did you say?
- Did you say you want to volunteer? - No.
- Are you sure? - No, never.
I don't want him either.
I don't have a thing for nut cases.
I see.
In that case
I'll just go with whatever you say.
It'll be an honor to assist Inspector Han.
Okay, then. I've come to a decision.
Han Ju Won and Lee Dong Sik, you are Team One.
- What? - What?
Why not?
You two are the only people who hate each other.
So once you two hit it off,
the teamwork here will be perfect. Don't you think?
Officer Oh, you'll take calls for a while
and keep the place nice and tidy, okay?
All right, Team One. Time to go on a patrol.
Chief Nam, you cannot create teams on your own call
Dong Sik, what are you doing?
I know you're just an assistant inspector
but think of all of your years with the police
compared to a much younger inspector.
Look at how absurd our discipline is.
This young inspector is trying to defy the chief,
and this assistant inspector is refusing to work with an inspector.
Inspector Han, I will serve you to the best of my abilities.
Good. This makes more sense.
Okay. Get to work.
Does the less experienced officer have to drive around here?
Gosh, you want to hold this disgusting steering wheel?
It's infested with germs.
You seemed like a wild driver.
So let me drive.
Did you just say I seem like a wild driver?
When you first got here a week ago,
you slammed on your accelerator as soon as the lights changed.
There are lots of elderly folks in this town.
If you continue to do that and cause anyone to get hurt,
it'll make my life difficult too.
I never did that.
Seven days ago,
around 19:20,
it was the first crosswalk you see right after Manyang Substation.
License plate number 31G 8305.
I saw you.
And I'm sure you saw me crossing the road too.
Should I go find the security footage from the crosswalk?
Inspector Han.
Be careful.
There are no secrets around here.
Someone is always watching
from somewhere.
Hello?
Goodness. When?
Okay. I'll be there.
What are you doing in the middle of patrol?
I'm on my way after receiving a report.
Someone called in a report on your personal phone? No way.
Does the substation have any idea
that you've been taking reports on your personal phone?
It's not like I'm going outside our jurisdiction.
If it doesn't feel right, you can radio back to make a report.
Hold on tight.
Didn't you just say I'm a wild driver?
Bang Wu Cheol, 74 years old, a patient with advanced dementia.
He should be somewhere in the middle of the reed field.
But he may have collapsed on his way.
You can begin your search starting here.
I'll go that way.
How do you know he's here? Let's check the security footage.
It's a redevelopment area. What security footage?
Darn it.
Mr. Bang Wu Cheol!
Sir!
Mr. Bang Wu Cheol.
Mr. Bang.
Sir.
Mr. Bang!
Is he even here?
He didn't even get the information by radio.
Is he
Officer Lee, are you playing a game with me?
You should've ducked down.
Why would you just stand in front of a gust of wind? Gosh.
Do you need to be slapped in the face to get your act together?
- What did you just say? - Why are you hesitating?
We should go find the old man.
Is Bang Wu Cheol even a real person?
Mr. Bang.
Dong Sik.
Let's go home.
My youngest daughter, Ju Seon.
My sweetheart hasn't come home yet. I have to wait for her.
My goodness. Let's go home.
Who's that?
- I'm Inspector Han Ju Won from - Don't.
What?
You're police officers? Go away.
Sir, sir.
Sir, it's not true. You know me. I'm Dong Sik.
Just stay right there.
I'll take you home. All right?
Don't come near me. Go away!
- You little scumbags. - Sir. Sir!
Sir!
- Don't come near me. - Sir!
- Don't follow me. - Sir!
- Don't follow me! - Sir.
Let go of me.
- Go away! Leave me alone! - Just stay still.
My goodness. Please just stay still.
Hold his legs. Come on. Hold his legs!
- Go away! - My goodness.
Just stay still. You're going to hurt yourself.
Sir.
Let go of me. Let go!
Sir. Look at me. It's me.
It's okay.
My goodness. This won't do.
The latch is loose.
The old man's so strong.
He shakes the door to open it.
He gets even more aggressive in October.
I'll get a stronger one from the hardware store.
You do that. You should've done that earlier.
What? Do you think I'm shameless?
Ma'am.
Don't make a report on his personal phone from now on.
- What? - Hey, you can call me.
Officer Lee.
You should go inside. He must be exhausted.
You're sick of this too, aren't you?
You want him to be sent to a nursing home, don't you?
- I never even thought of that. - Well, I did.
I think about it at least a dozen times a day, every day.
What was that?
It seems like she has some dirt on you.
You should go and get cleaned up.
Mr. Bang is really strong you know.
Inspector Han, you must've gone through a lot on your first day.
You can't call that a lot.
He's working on the frontline of public welfare.
So sometimes, he'll get some mud or dog poop on his shoes.
Didn't your colleagues who went through shift rotation tell you?
I don't have any close colleagues.
And you don't need one?
- No. - Why not?
If we're from the same region or we went to the same school,
or if they show kindness even when I don't want it,
they always try to figure out what I have at team dinners.
They ask questions to find out what kind of background I have.
Eventually, they ask me to pull some strings for them.
But I don't like that kind of stuff.
Is it that simple?
It's funny how people around you always want something from you.
It makes me wonder if people really are after the same thing.
I wonder just how great your connections are
to make you the most stubborn man in the world.
It's possible that people around him really ask for lots of favors.
Yes, you all know why.
His father is
still alive.
You should stop wiping your hands and have some tea.
Your nails are going to wear out.
No, thanks.
I don't use common supplies.
Do you have mysophobia?
A police officer with mysophobia? That's ridiculous.
Having mysophobia isn't that bad.
Mysophobia.
I don't have that.
It's just that I don't like unsanitary environments.
My goodness. What a relief.
Because we're having dinner after work.
But I was going to cancel it if you really have mysophobia.
Jae Yi's restaurant is quite clean.
So you don't have to worry.

(Chief Nam Sang Bae)
(Chief,)
(Chief, I don't think I can join today's team dinner.)
(Chief, I don't think I can ever join team dinners.)
Roll down the window.
Are you from Manyang Substation?
What?
I know that security camera is a piece of junk
but an officer can't park here.
- I'm not parking. - There's a parking lot in the back.
Park there.
It's in the back.
We need more drinks.
- Hey, Inspector Han. - Come and have a seat.
He's from Munju Police Station.
He's Park Jeong Je, the chief of general affairs.
His father is a member of the Munju City Council.
Why would you tell him that?
- I'm Inspector Park Jeong Je. - That's right.
I'm Han Ju Won.
Here's your wet tissue. Take it.
Have a seat, please.
Inspector Han, where is Officer Lee?
How am I supposed to know that?
He went to Mr. Kang's supermarket.
We're out of makgeolli and soju.
My goodness. You should take your partner with you.
You should stay with your partner 24 hours a day for 365 days a year.
You should even know the color of your partner's underwear.
Now you sound like a real police officer.
Did Inspector Oh teach you that?
Why would I teach him that?
You guys don't even change underwear when you're undercover for days.
So why would I want to know the color of it?
Maybe he taught him that.
I told him to count his partner's socks.
You understand way beyond what I teach you.
Gosh, Jin Mook is here.
Hello.
Inspector Han.
He is the most important man in Manyang.
Say hello. He's been assigned to our substation.
Inspector Han Ju Won.
And over there, he's the owner of Manyang Supermarket.
That's the only place that sells unpasteurized makgeolli in Munju.
Jin Mook, I'm always grateful.
Don't mention it.
Come join us. Have a drink.
No, no one's watching the store.
- Where is Min Jeong? - She has a lot of assignments,
so she's spending the night in Seoul.
- I see. - Enjoy your dinner.
She's only a freshman. She can't have that many assignments.
We haven't met, right?
I'm Detective Oh Ji Hwa of VCU 1 at Munju Police Station.
I'm that punk's sister.
I'm Han Ju Won.
He doesn't really look like his father.
I've seen Chief Superintendent Han a few times
when he was stationed at Munju Police station.
What's with this mood? Did I say something wrong?
I guess he doesn't want us to mention his father's name.
Why is that?
Is he Hong Gil Dong or something? Here, take it.
That's right. I've been meaning to ask you that.
So Chief Han is the chief superintendent general,
and I'm an assistant inspector,
Inspector, senior inspector, superintendent,
senior superintendent, superintendent general,
senior superintendent general, chief superintendent general.
He's seven ranks above me!
He's the second-in-command of Korea's police agency.
So you can't dare to mention his name.
I just don't like it.
Is that so wrong?
My father's name
is Lee Han Ok. It's Lee Han Ok.
Mention his name as much as you want.
Lee Han Ok, Lee Han Ok.
- My father's name - Nobody asked.
So what's his name?
His name is Cho Young Soo.
- Cho Young Soo, Cho Young Soo. - That's right! Father!
- Cheers, everyone. - Cheers!
You should sing a different song.
- Or memorize the words at least. - Sing it properly, Oh Ji Hun.
(Manyang Butcher Shop)
The chief hates it
when someone sneaks out.
So what?
Goodbye.
I don't think you answered my question earlier.
What kind of dirt does she have on you
that you can't say anything to her?
I killed someone.
I killed their youngest daughter.
How
How did you kill her?
It's just a joke, yet you're so serious.
You're the loner type.
That's good. I like you.
I'm not interested in being liked by you, Officer Lee.
I'll decide whom to like, okay?
Go home before the chief catches you.
The mighty Han Ju Won
got himself in a rathole.
You're having so much fun, aren't you?
"Fun"? No, I'm just so proud of you.
At this rate, you're going to become a real cop.
- Give me the file. - What file?
Prosecutor Kwon.
They had absolute control over the file.
I went a long way to get this.
Someone must've caused some real trouble, right?

Ju Won, I heard the youngest daughter of Soseong Trading
is visiting from the States.
It's a shame that it's not one of the top 50 richest companies,
but I hear she's pretty good-looking.
Of course, you'll need to ask your father first, right?
Why are you being so nosy?
Prosecutors these days must be really free.
I'm not interested.
I meant for me, not you.
Then why would you want to know my father's opinion?
You should ask your father.
Chief Superintendent Han I mean,
I don't want to fall short of Father's expectations.
"Father"?
Are you that desperate to be restricted by family?
It's not that great anyway.
It is great! You can't cut off family ties.
You know, I can't forget the day I became
your live-in tutor back when you were in high school.
Chief Superintendent Han met me only briefly,
but he sent me 20,000 dollars as a scholarship.
That's when I thought,
"I should become his son who never falls short of his expectations."
This is how I'm paying back
his grace.
You do that. I'm leaving.
Ju Won.
Fix that up and bring it back.
I'll help you.
Who's helping who?
Stay low until things die down.
Don't bring disgrace to my name.
Just become the commissioner general already
before I do something about it.

Lee Dong Sik.
This is his photo of when he was commissioned as an officer.
(Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency, Foreign Affairs Division)
20 years ago, in the early morning of October 15, 2000,
Lee Dong Sik's twin sister,
Lee Yu Yeon, who was 20 years old at the time,
went missing after leaving only 10 tip joints of her fingers.
And in the same morning, in the nearby reed field,
the body of Bang Ju Seon, who was 22 years old,
was found as well.
As you can see, her body is in a similar form
to the victims of the cases we are working on.
Lee Dong Sik
(Lee Dong Sik, working as assistant inspector)
(at Manyang Police Substation of Munju, Gyeonggi Province)
is working as an assistant inspector at Manyang Police Substation.
Wait. Isn't that Inspector Lee from the Regional Investigation Unit?
It is Inspector Lee Dong Sik.
He was famous for being a nut case.
An inspector from the Regional Investigation Unit?
Then why is he working as an assistant inspector at a substation?
Well, that's
He was a total psycho, that's why.
He couldn't explain how his partner died.
So the whole team got dismissed,
and he got demoted.
What a psycho. Why are you mentioning his name right now?
Lee Dong Sik
was involved in the murder of Bang Ju Seon
and the abduction of Lee Yu Yeon.
He was the suspect.
(Please help us find the missing Yu Yeon.)
Ji Hun, it's not straight.
Isn't that Inspector Han's car?
That car is so awesome.
He's indeed from a rich family.
Ji Hun, pull it up. Pull it up some more.
That side is fine. Just tie it.
(Please help us find the missing Yu Yeon.)
Hello?
Again? When?
Okay, I'm on my way now.
Ji Hun, let's go.
- Where? - Mr. Bang ran away again.
What?
Make sure to check it.
Inspector Han, stop! Don't come in. Go look for him right away.
- Sorry? - Mr. Bang ran away again.
Dong Sik and Ji Hun went to look for him also,
so go assist them. You know where the reed field is, right?
Why are you just standing there?
It rained yesterday, so it's extra hard to find him today. Go now.
Mr. Bang, where are you?
It's cold, Mr. Bang.
Mr. Bang.
I thought you were him.
What are you doing here?
I came to assist.
Don't annoy me again by getting lost.
Follow right behind me.
Mr. Bang, where are you?
Oh Ji Hun.
What is it? What's going on?
It's nothing.
I just fell down and
Dong Sik
Hey, Dong Sik!
Dong Sik!
Dong Sik, come quick!
Dong Sik!
Where are you? Your flashlight!
Shine your flashlight toward the sky!
Dong Sik! Dong Sik!
Dong Sik!
What is it? What?
Yu Yeon
What's going on?
Oh Ji Hun, go stay in the car.
Who is she?
Han Ju Won, you know who she is, right?
How do you know?
How do you know it's a woman from a skeleton?
Why don't you let this go and tell me,
Assistant Inspector Lee?
You should report it, Inspector Han.
You need to report that we found an unidentified body.
Is that all I need to report?
- Then what else is there? - A suspect
you're suspicious of.
Go ahead and report it if you have one.
Assistant Inspector Lee, I have something to ask you.
Lee Yu Yeon, your sister.
Are you sure you didn't kill her?
(We'd like to thank Lee Do Hyun for his special appearance.)
(Beyond Evil)
Why are you going this far?
Because it feels like an officer is suspecting me.
You said her fingertips were cut off, didn't you?
So it must've been about 20 years.
I don't know why and how
you became so interested in the case to come all the way here.
But just stay quiet.
If they find out who she is, both you and I will be in trouble.
I'm not asking. This is an order, Inspector Han.
It's been a cold case for 20 years. Don't you know what that means?
That means we don't have any evidence to identify the killer.
Did you take it?
Which part of me are you so interested in?
I guess it's not Lee Dong Sik, the police officer.
Is it Lee Dong Sik, the suspect?
