Bad Guys: Vile City (2017) s01e03 Episode Script

1
Chairman Yeong-guk Jo
repeatedly said he didn't know anything
during his hearing yesterday.
-Hello.
-It's been pointed out
that he might be just faking all his
statements. His supporters
Find evidence
that Yeong-guk Jo bribed the mayor.
Then it'll be over.
We don't need anything else.
Got it?
Yes, sir.
Someone new will be joining us.
What is Oxycontin?
Why does this keep showing up in our case?
It's a drug.
I think it comes from Seowon.
What the hell are you staring at?
We're here.
I don't trust people.
I trust their stories.
He has a good story.
You know the situation,
so I'll get to the point.
Leave that game if you want to live.
Come to me.
If you do, I'll tell you everything.
I'll tell you about everyone
working with you,
and how dangerous they are.
We oppose malicious prosecution!
-We oppose!
-We oppose!
We oppose malicious prosecution!
-We oppose!
-We oppose!
The act of ruining Seowon's economy
Can she see anything
with her eyes covered like that?
They say she's like that
to ignore status, wealth,
things like that, and to enforce the law
without being influenced
by such things,
but I don't know.
You smell money and power.
You don't see it.
But if you cover your eyes like that,
you can only go by smell.
How can she see the pain
of the people when she can't see?
Don't you agree?
If you have time, how about some tea?
-We oppose!
-We oppose!
We oppose malicious prosecution!
-We oppose!
-We oppose!
You must have been shocked when I called.
No, sir.
So?
What do you think
about those people?
I'm sure you made the right decision
on your own.
Didn't you wonder
why he sent you in as a substitute?
Myeong-deuk Lee could have had
Je-mun Woo handle it.
So, why?
Because it isn't right.
Don't you think that's why?
Because you have to do things
a prosecutor must not do,
work with people you must not,
and cross lines you must not cross.
If there's something I can't do
for any reason, you do it.
That's why I called you.
I don't understand what you mean, sir.
Do you think
I don't know that Je-mun Woo
is investigating Chairman Jo?
Why do you think Jae-pil Joo died?
You have a past with him, right?
Did you want him to die
or did you want him to be prosecuted
and sent to jail?
Je-mun Woo is a sharp knife.
The problem with sharp knives is,
the person grabbing it
may get hurt as well.
That's why Jae-pil Joo died, too.
I have a favor to ask.
It isn't anything big,
so I hope you would do it for me.
Yes, sir. Go ahead.
If you see
I don't mean legally.
If you as a person, not as a prosecutor,
see something incomprehensible,
something that you must not do,
something that violates reason,
or if there's something
you cannot handle on your own,
would you tell me about it?
I don't understand what you mean.
I mean, don't hold it in.
You have no duty to tell me.
However,
what I'm saying is claim your human right.
Everyone has a breaking point.
Come to me then.
That's all.
Yes, sir. I understand.
If you have nothing else to say,
I'll go now.
Aren't you curious
about what I said yesterday?
I said I would tell you
what kind of people they are.
I'll go now.
With overdue wages,
you need to come to an agreement
with the employer to recover
Yes.
Yes, I know that.
It's because I'm not competent enough.
Okay.
What brings you here?
You didn't even call.
Do I need to call first?
Aren't you going to make coffee
for your guest?
What happened to your face?
It happened while I was working.
Remember a long time ago?
When we got our first appointments,
our assistant chief prosecutor said
he could tell how we work
by how we made coffee.
He said those who make it weak
are bland about work,
and those who make it strong
are very intense.
So, we always made strong coffee,
and tried to look good.
But not you.
Then and now,
your coffee is very bland.
So, you don't want it?
Then go make it yourself.
No, it's just that I missed this at times.
I'm going after Yeong-guk Jo
as per Myeong-deuk's orders.
TAE-SIK MIN
ATTORNEY AT LAW
He gave me a guideline,
and told me to set it up
and do everything myself.
So, I said I would.
-Do you trust Myeong-deuk?
-Tae-sik.
When did we ever trust higher-ups?
Let's trust the crime,
not the connections.
What about your team?
There are people who are willing
to mess with Yeong-guk Jo?
From our crew, I have Ju-myeong,
and we're working with Il-hu Heo
and Seong-cheol Jang.
That's who we work with now.
And the prosecutor that just came
from Western District
is doing the paperwork.
And
Gang-ju Han.
He started working with us yesterday.
Gang-ju has a lot of pent-up emotions
against the East Gang's Sang-mo Ha.
I thought I should tell you.
That's why I came.
Sorry.
Je-mun, what are you thinking?
You bastard, don't tell me
What do you mean?
I don't know what I'm thinking.
Thanks for the coffee.
I'll go now.
Hey, it's me.
Chang-gyo.
You know the owner
of Sang Electronics, right?
Call him and tell him to pay
all the employees' back pay,
or he'll have to answer to me.
Yes, Tae-sik.
What? Preferential treatment?
Does a man getting preferential treatment
rent an office for a million won a month?
He's still wearing the same nasty wig
from ten years ago.
And he's behind on rent.
Shouldn't they at least make sure
he can pay rent?
He got that way after working hard.
Anyway, you take care of it. Yes.
Sure. Okay.
I'll buy drinks
when I get my next paycheck.
Thanks. Okay.
Hello?
You're drinking every time.
Did you eat?
I'll just drink.
Okay.
How is the job going?
The plan is set.
We'll take action soon.
Just find evidence that Yeong-guk Jo
bribed Mayor Bae.
That's all you need.
Then we can take them all down together.
Don't make any mistakes.
I'm relying solely on you.
Don't do that. It's burdensome.
I just met Tae-sik.
-How is he doing?
-Struggling, obviously.
He seems to be behind on his office rent.
Why is he living like that?
Why is someone
who passed the bar living like that?
Why else?
You know better than anyone
why he's like that.
I don't like the tone of your voice.
Is it your first time or something?
Myeong-deuk.
If you have some leftover money,
let's help him out a little, okay?
You have a lot of money.
Your family was pro-Japanese.
Your grandfather or someone
became friends with a Count
by selling the revolutionaries.
A baron. Slightly lower than a Count.
He wanted to be a Count, but failed
because we became independent.
So, as a gesture to atone
for your grandfather's sins,
help Tae-sik a little, okay?
Let's set something up soon.
How is Jin-pyeong? Isn't he too clueless?
Well, he was guarded at first,
but he's adapting.
That's good.
But anyway,
why did he meet Jun-hyeok Ban?
Ji-su said he met
with Jun-hyeok this morning.
Did you know that they were meeting?
What?
"Don't let your left hand know
what your right hand does."
The saying is right.
If the right hand knows what the left hand
is doing, you're a communist.
If the left hand knows what the right hand
is doing, you're an ultraright.
You're not hiding behind
a communist, are you?
Hey. You met Jun-hyeok Ban, right? Why?
Sorry?
What did you tell him?
-What is wrong with you?
-Sir.
-Tell me, you crap!
-Wait.
Did you tell him what we did?
He already knew everything!
He knew it all!
Mr. Ban knew that you were
investigating Yeong-guk Jo.
I'm positive.
Get the script from Ju-myeong
and come to the lot.
Mr. Ban knew that Mr. Woo was the dagger?
How did he know?
That's bad. He can't know.
Shit.
It will get complicated
if he gets involved.
Is Ban Yeong-guk Jo's mole?
No, it's not like that.
His nickname is "Opposition Party."
Why?
He hates anything the President
of the ruling party does.
Mr. Woo may not be with any party,
but he teamed up with
the ruling party to get Yeong-guk Jo.
Naturally, he's upset that you met
with the Opposition Party.
Don't make a mistake like that again.
What's this?
Your script.
CASE PLAN
Isn't this too complicated?
We can just subpoena whoever manages
Yeong-guk Jo's dirty money.
She's missing.
-What?
-That woman, Ae-gyeong Kim, is missing.
Yeong-guk Jo's accountant.
When?
When his people started testifying
one by one at his hearing,
she was definitely
on the list of witnesses.
But she didn't show up
even after the third round.
So, they got a subpoena
and tried to force her to appear,
but Yeong-guk Jo already
had Sang-mo Ha taken her away.
What brings you here?
It's Chairman Jo's orders.
Ae-gyeong Kim!
Min-su, it's okay.
He didn't kill her, like Jae-pil Joo?
No, I doubt that.
The others are one thing, but if she dies,
he can't access his money
that's hiding abroad.
He's probably hiding her somewhere
and waiting for the right time.
What's the use?
There's no way to find her.
That's why this script is
Will this work?
It looks kind of dangerous.
That's why we're doing it.
Don't you still get
whom you're working with?
So, we shake down
the East Gang's businesses in Innam
to find the fake-name account
where Yeong-guk Jo sent
money to Sang-do Bae,
and get them both. Right?
It gets complicated to take out
company money and then give it to him.
I bet Yeong-guk Jo
made the East Gang send the money
to Sang-do Bae directly.
We just have to find that.
But each business has at least
ten fake-name accounts.
When will we check them all?
There are 500 businesses run
by the East Gang in Innam alone.
It's not just over ten accounts.
Last time, Jeong-hyeok raided
a massage parlor,
and they made one account a day.
They never use one account twice.
Once they get the money,
they close it to avoid leaving a trail.
We'll have to gather them into one.
So, how will we gather all of them
all at once?
Pil-sun.
-You boxed a little, right?
-Yes.
What do you do
if the opponent throws jabs?
I hit back.
What if she throws ten jabs,
hooks, and uppercuts?
-Sorry?
-What if you keep getting hit?
I'll put up a guard.
Right? You'll put up a guard
to avoid being hit.
That's exactly it.
We go at them like crazy.
So that they'll get scared
and consolidate the funds.
Club Mobius, Neo Massage,
this bar, Valentine,
the illegal house on the fifth floor
of the Innam Building.
We'll hit those four spots today.
We all go in at the same time.
If they find out that it's us,
Yeong-guk Jo will catch on.
Make it look like an organized crime raid.
Ask the local police for cooperation.
Seong-cheol, it's me.
-Get to Neo Massage by 10:00 p.m
-Okay.
You have to stay alert.
Get your weapons ready. Don't get hurt.
We beat them up all at once.
-Yes, sir.
-What?
Yes, sir!
They are coming. Get ready.
Okay. Got it.
Maintain it at your end.
Tell the local police
that those spots aren't the targets,
so just to create smoke.
What exactly do you mean
by "create smoke"?
If you don't tell the local police,
we'll take the fall.
The fall?
Mobius is a hangout for drug dealers,
druggies, and rapists.
Neo Massage?
How is relieving a guy in heat
for 200,000 won a "massage"?
Valentine Bar.
They force the girls
to sleep with the customers,
and if they don't repay the advance,
they sell them to brothels.
They get hustlers to play fools
and stab people in the back.
What kind of smoke do you think
we can make?
They can't discern what a person
should do or not.
They would probably sell
their own parents for money.
They are all scumbags.
What could government workers
without a warrant
do to create smoke?
Nothing, but beat them up.
They are being caught in the act.
I'll take responsibility.
Get those bastards.
Let's get going.
-Police.
-Sir!
-What is it?
-Get out.
What the hell?
Hey!
Fuck off.
Don't move!
Take that side. Hurry!
There are so many.
What the
Hey, lady.
Don't work at a place like this.
Don't give me that shit.
Yeah, I gave you shit.
I gave people a lot of shit.
Hey. Stop!
I'm Jin-pyeong Noh, a prosecutor.
-Give me that.
-Who the hell are you?
Give me that.
Let go!
Fuck you!
You asshole.
Let go!
-Come out!
-Don't move!
Don't move!
Freeze!
Hands off! Get your hands off that!
Wake up. Hey.
Wake up!
Hands off.
Hey, Gang-san.
Wow. You were drinking liquor.
Mister, you're under arrest
for illegal gambling.
You have
-Help me!
-Fucking hell!
You bastard.
Who?
Okay.
Please get moving.
-Escort him.
-Yes, sir.
Take him.
Yes, sir. Follow me.
Say you're sleeping at a friend's place.
You weren't here.
Mr. Heo!
You should take her this way.
No, that's not it.
No, that's not what? Who is that?
Hey, miss.
Hey, miss
Mr. Noh.
I'll handle it.
Mr. Noh!
There's a problem at the house.
Shit.
-Go with us.
-Okay, okay.
-Shit.
-Damn it.
-Don't move!
-Shit.
I'm just a worker here.
-Is he new?
-I'm Jin-pyeong Noh.
-Nice to meet you.
-He's a deputy chief prosecutor.
What's going on?
Mr. Cha had been getting paid
to protect the house.
Shit. Why didn't we know that?
Our reason for being here
is an organized crime raid.
If they find out a prosecutor
was involved, it will get messy.
The East Gang may catch onto
what we're doing.
That bastard is a real prick.
We're dead if he rats on us
to Yeong-guk Jo.
Shit.
You're hitting the East Gang
to find trails of money
that Yeong-guk Jo paid Mayor Bae, right?
I can tell.
You are so smart, Je-mun.
I thought you were all muscle.
But your members suck.
Why did you drag Seong-cheol out again?
Seriously.
No. I quit smoking.
I want a drink. I'm thirsty.
Okay. I'll pour you a glass.
I knew that you
and Yeong-guk Jo were close,
but I never imagined
that you would be here.
I'm sorry. I made a mistake.
It's okay.
People can make mistakes.
Let me also make a mistake towards you.
To be blunt, Je-mun,
do you think Myeong-deuk
going after Chairman Jo
is the right thing to do?
That's not right.
It's clearly a malicious prosecution.
We can't do this.
Prosecutors should abide by the rules.
Look. I'll turn a blind eye
to seeing you here today.
-So, you do the same about what we're
-No.
You don't need to turn a blind eye.
Go and tell Myeong-deuk.
It's not like I'll go to jail
for gambling just once.
I won't become a chief prosecutor anyway.
I'll retire now.
If I tell Chairman Jo about this,
he'll open a law firm for me.
Or, he'll bring me into
the legal department at Hyeonseung.
Are you saying you'll tell him?
I need to make a living after I retire.
Then we can't catch Yeong-guk Jo.
We can't leave our neighborhood like this.
What's the problem?
Seowon City pays
the fourth highest income tax
in all of Korea.
If it weren't for Chairman Jo,
Seowon would have been bankrupt years ago.
You don't know what you're talking about.
Seok-gi.
Kids who should go to school
holding their mommies' hands,
hold druggies' hands to go mix drugs.
Kids who should be studying
service customers instead.
This is all because of Yeong-guk Jo.
Countless kids live in closet-sized rooms
in study dorms, starving.
Don't just look at Inbuk, where you live.
Look at the poor towns, will you?
You won't fall by looking down.
I don't avoid looking
because I'm afraid of falling.
It's because it's ugly.
Don't try to convince me.
You won't be able to anyway.
How dare you try to lecture me,
you rude bastard?
I guess I have no choice.
-Jin-pyeong, come in.
-Yes, sir.
He works under me.
-Say hi to Mr. Cha.
-Hello, sir.
He has such a cool surname.
He's an incredible man.
Let's show him what we're doing, okay?
"While conducting an organized crime raid,
the Seowon Central Police received a tip
about an illegal gambling house
in Innam and raided the place.
But a Seowon prosecutor
happened to be there."
-What?
-"That prosecutor
was afraid that his identity
would be revealed,
and fled, climbing the pipe
up to the fifth floor."
Are you crazy?
"Then he fell to his death."
Are you insane, you bastard?
Think of the times.
Gosh.
Seok-gi.
You stabbed a lot of innocent people
during your cleanup campaign,
but the knife is blind.
That knife will stab you now.
How does it feel?
Gang-san, come in.
He fell to his death.
Pay attention to the details.
-Make sure there are no problems.
-Yes, sir.
What the hell? What are you doing?
What the Who the hell are you?
You bastard.
What are you doing?
What do you think you're doing?
Hey. Don't knock him out first.
They'll figure it out while investigating.
Yes, sir.
Throw him while he's alert.
Put him down. Now!
Put him down. I said to put him down!
Let him go.
-Throw him!
-Let go.
This is murder!
-Hey.
-Let go!
I'll do as you say!
He says he will do it.
Don't kill me.
Will you tell him?
How can I trust you?
You can tell him after saying you won't.
I'll take
I'll take a medical leave.
I'll leave the country quietly.
Medical leave for what?
I'll do whatever you say.
Help me.
You enjoyed everything you should
and shouldn't have as a prosecutor.
The world has changed.
Take good care of him.
Jin-pyeong, come with me.
That bastard
If you, as a person, not as a prosecutor,
see something incomprehensible,
something that you must not do,
something that violates reason,
or if there's something
you cannot handle on your own,
would you tell me about it?
He helped you, didn't he?
He did not.
You know Mayor Sang-do Bae, correct?
-I do not.
-You received his help, correct?
I did not.
Four businesses were raided yesterday.
-Why?
-They say they were organized crime raids.
And the money and accounts?
They lost about half,
but they were big businesses,
so it will be significant.
How long are they doing the raids?
I assume it will be a month or two.
Tell the businesses to put their money
into the customer account
until the raids are done.
Yes, sir.
I'll instruct them to do that.
Please answer the question.
YEONG-GUK JO
WITNESS
You provided Mayor Sang-do Bae
with escort girls
periodically every month, correct?
Did you just laugh?
It's all here, okay?
In April of 2016,
you did it once at Happy Happy Monday.
Once at Happy. Twice at Happy.
Once at Monday.
Once at Happy. Happy Once at Monday.
Okay, twice in total.
-He received an escort service twice.
-Mr. Assemblyman.
Do you know how much
Hyeonseung's sales are in a year?
It's 2.7 trillion won.
Should we divide it
by 12 months of the year?
It's 225 billion won.
Should we divide that by 30 now?
It's 7.5 billion won.
I gave up 7.5 billion won
just to be here today.
But what? Sexual favors?
You can't even remember
the name of the bar.
If you talk like that after getting
information from some strange source,
the people will mock you.
Aren't you embarrassed
in front of the people who elected you?
You are an elected official.
Please act like one.
What? What did you just say?
I have the evidence right here.
This is a hearing.
How dare you
Why you
We have the evidence here.
Among all the affiliated companies
registered,
those 11 companies have been reported
that they are the shell companies
found by you.
What do you think that means?
It's me.
Did you give the intel
that Assemblyman Kim
is referring to right now?
What?
That can't be.
I know if things go wrong,
I'll be the one taking the fall.
Why would I say that?
What the heck?
Why is he talking about that kind of shit
in public then?
Fine. I'll talk to you later.
YEONG-GUK JO, CHAIRMAN OF HYEONSEUNG
5TH HEARING
Someone gave Assemblyman Kim
false information.
-I do not know.
-You heard about this, correct?
I did not.
How about phone call log?
You don't think Myeong-deuk Lee
figured it out, do you?
Don't worry.
It went through three reporters
until it reached him,
so they won't trace it back to us.
The public has to believe
that the Prosecutors' Office is
maliciously prosecuting Chairman Jo,
who is being victimized by the officials.
Prosecutors can't disregard
the public sentiment.
Think about the impeachment.
If Chairman Jo hangs in there,
and the public becomes
more favorable to us,
the Prosecutors' Office
will raise the white flag.
Chairman Jo will hang in there, right?
He must.
-He will.
-Never.
What if he can't?
What if he talks about me?
We'll make sure that doesn't happen.
That's my job after all.
Jun-hyeok Ban speaking.
It's me, sir.
Who?
It's Jin-pyeong Noh.
-Stop!
-Stop!
Stop the malicious prosecution.
There he is!
Step aside.
What do you think about
Assemblyman Jang's questions?
Step aside.
Clear the way!
-Step aside!
-Any complaints?
I'll answer questions next time.
-Please step aside.
-Chairman Jo!
-Do you feel wronged?
-Step aside.
Lock him up right now!
You're worse than an animal!
Cancel the redevelopment!
Are you okay?
-Are you okay, sir?
-I'm fine.
It's not like I was stabbed.
-Anyway, Kim.
-Yes, sir.
How beautiful is this?
Justice still exists in this world.
Let's go.
The delivery is starting. Stay on him.
-Yes, sir.
-Where are you? Why aren't you here?
They started their delivery.
We'll be going after their customer soon.
I said I couldn't make it
because of my grandmother's memorial.
I told Mr. Shin.
What? A memorial?
Fine. Pay your respects to your ancestor.
A fortune teller said my life is like this
because I did not respect mine.
Let's go.
I'm not here to join you.
I don't like being bought
by rich gangsters.
Do you think
-I'm on Chairman Jo's side?
-Yes.
Why?
Because you're trying to stop us.
I'm stopping it because it's wrong.
It's not to help Chairman Jo.
I've never even met him before.
The people I work with
Il-hu Heo, Seong-cheol Jang,
Gang-ju Han, and Mr. Woo
Why did you say they were dangerous?
I wanted to meet you to ask that.
I meant nothing else.
I told you.
A sharp knife
may hurt the hand
of the person holding it.
We received a tip three years ago.
He said he was the East Gang's henchman,
and that the East Gang
was distributing drugs in Seowon.
He said Chairman Yeong-guk Jo ordered it
and asked us to stop it.
Back then, Hyeonseung Group
was having funding issues.
They were selling off
some subsidiaries too.
So, we dug.
-Who did?
-This was the situation.
Drug money was flowing
into Hyeonseung Group.
If we could find the link,
it would end in one blow.
It was very simple. It was a sure thing.
However,
Yeong-guk Jo is Yeong-guk Jo for a reason.
He came right at us.
He flipped things around.
While the Prosecutors' Office was
investigating Yeong-guk Jo's drug matter,
the prosecutor investigating Yeong-guk Jo
was doing drugs.
-Here's to Seowon.
-Yes.
He bought a money-hungry prosecutor
and set a trap.
-Bathroom.
-Yes, go ahead.
This is a token of his appreciation.
VEHICLE REGISTRATION DOCUMEN
There are drug dealers
who feed prosecutors
and help them to improve their performance
with drug cases.
That's how they work.
They get money from the prosecutor,
use that to buy drugs,
choose a target,
do drugs with them a few times,
get the target addicted,
hand him to the prosecutor,
and the prosecutor brings results.
One of the detectives
who were here to provide support
fell for it.
After that happened,
-the public took Chairman Jo's side,
-You totally ruined it!
and once people started talking about it
being a malicious prosecution,
-Are you insane?
-the team cracked from within.
How did it crack?
Suspicion.
He made a deal.
In exchange for getting off
with a suspension,
he said it was malicious prosecution,
witnesses were coerced,
and everything was staged.
That's what that detective testified.
So? What happened?
-Mr. Woo.
-The investigation team was disbanded.
Some were suspended,
some were transferred to the suburbs,
and some were kicked out entirely.
Tae-sik Min was fired.
We thought that was the end.
However,
it was the end for us,
but not for Chairman Jo.
He sent a message.
"If anyone messes with me again,
this will happen to you as well.
So, from now on,
get down and crawl."
What happened to the informant
who called it in?
Did he die?
No. He lived.
He was lucky.
Now, he runs a restaurant somewhere
in Inseo, from what I hear.
A restaurant owner.
Do you get
what kind of people you're working with?
Why did Mr. Woo
Why did he gather people
who failed once
I don't understand.
He's using their rage.
Nothing
blinds people as well as rage.
That's why it's dangerous.
That's why it must be stopped.
What about Gang-ju Han?
How is he related to this?
That's right.
Chairman Jo is a bad man,
and he'll continue to be bad.
But still,
not this case.
Chairman Jo never bribed Mayor Bae.
However, Je-mun is blinded by his rage,
and is doing things a prosecutor
must not do, working with people
he must not work with, and is crossing
a line he must not cross.
The more obsessed he gets,
the worse the situation will become.
To be blunt,
how many prosecutors like us
do you think went after Chairman Jo?
He knows everything
about how we try to obtain evidence,
We have the location.
how we secure witnesses,
how we catch criminals,
-Mr. Heo. we're going to raid them.
-and
-Okay.
-how he will tie us up.
Seong-cheol, are you ready?
Hey. Let's do this.
Prosecutors are here, you bastards!
REDEVELOPMENT COMPENSATION
BRIEFING SESSION FOR INSEO
-Why are prosecutors here?
-Prosecutors?
-Prosecutors?
-What are they doing?
Why are they here?
Prosecutors?
Prosecutors?
The good isn't experienced,
but the evil is.
Do you know why?
Experienced good will become evil.
Prosecutors.
Are you from Seowon Prosecutors' Office?
-Here, we
-Say something, please.
-Look at us!
-No photos!
Say something please!
-Hey!
-Is that correct?
-Please
-Don't take photos!
Please say something.
How come you come here?
I told the editor in chief that there was
some confusion while investigating
a crime organization.
So? Are you sure?
Yes, I'm sure.
Yeong-guk Jo has a mole in our team?
Is it a prosecutor or a cop?
Detective Kim.
Weren't you closer to me?
Why didn't you tell me?
Why did you tell the chairman?
Why should I contact a dog
when the lion is alive?
Did Detective Kim say anything more?
He thanked you.
Thanked me for what?
Information is money in these times.
Things went well thanks to Detective Kim,
but a portion of the accounts
was revealed,
so we'll have to take measures.
Send someone to Ae-gyeong.
Bring the books.
She'll take care of it all.
Yes, sir. I'll do as you say.
Also, one other thing.
If you would give me a heads up
about these things,
I'll take care of them myself.
If it was something you could have
taken care of, I would have told you.
Know your place.
I'm sorry, sir.
Should I give you something
you can take care of?
You want to try it?
Okay. Locate him.
I'll go now.
Sang-mo.
Why is the head of the East Gang
still a driver?
Don't glare at me.
You didn't have double eyelids before.
Did you get surgery?
My dear prosecutor. It's been a while.
Have you eaten?
Why did you want to see me?
You went after the kids to find evidence
of me giving money
to Mayor Bae, didn't you?
How does a prosecutor
make absolutely no progress?
After what happened three years ago
when you tried to link Hyeonseung
with the East Gang
I guess you have nothing much to say.
I'll go then.
Hey, you.
Why are you getting up?
Your seat isn't even warm yet.
Your butt will get cold.
Sir.
Myeong-deuk Lee ordered you
to do this, didn't he?
Drop him and work with me. Let's make up.
Your vigor really impressed me.
I've never heard such bullshit
before in my life.
Hey, Yeong-guk.
Even if I am a prosecutor in the gutter,
I can't clean up after you
because of your crimes.
Crimes? What crimes?
You know how the law works in our country.
If a poor man kills, it's murder.
If a rich man kills, it's self-defense.
If a poor man touches a girl, it's rape.
If a rich man touches a girl,
it's consensual fornication.
If a poor man does a sit-in,
it's trespassing and criminal.
If a rich man does a sit-in,
it's his given right.
In these times, we do not commit crimes.
We create them.
You know that, too.
Three years ago, you said to me,
that if I want to catch you,
I shouldn't bring a master of the pen,
but a master of the sword.
Rather than someone who reads
the law in a corner somewhere,
someone who has been active
in crime scenes is better.
"Rather than someone who uncovers
the truth, someone who manipulates it.
Someone who is ahead of me."
Quicker than I am would be better.
"Someone more vicious and unrelenting."
Someone who has done
more bad things than I have.
-"Someone who did more."
-And will do much more.
"Bring someone like that to catch me."
That's what you said to me.
So, I thought about it.
Can we not do it?
That wasn't it.
We just had to change.
We'll grab swords instead of pens.
We'll bring weapons to the scene,
rather than read the law in a corner.
Screw the truth.
We'll just be one step ahead of you.
We'll be more vicious and unrelenting
than you, Yeong-guk.
Someone who did, does,
and will do more bad things than you.
We just had to become people like that.
Hey, look at me.
So?
Do you think I became someone like that?
You became a better speaker
in those three years.
Hey, Yeong-guk.
You don't get it, do you?
You don't know what move
you just made, do you?
Did you think I didn't know
you had a mole in the police department?
-Come on. Stop it.
-Detective Kim.
-What are you doing?
-Stop it!
We went after the East Gang's businesses
to trace the funds.
We just created a smoke screen
to blind you.
I'm not a moron. I wouldn't do
the same thing I did three years ago.
Are you trying to read me?
That won't work on me.
If you knew about the mole,
why did you go where the reporters were?
If I didn't make a mistake,
if we didn't see blood,
you wouldn't have called Ae-gyeong Kim.
You're too cautious.
We needed you to call her to locate her.
And we needed to locate her
to secure her as a witness
for the hearing,
investigate you,
and get rid of you
and Sang-do Bae all at once.
She's the sole witness.
Law? Justice? Order?
I won't use that to catch you.
You're above the law,
so we'll drag you into the gutter
and destroy the order you established.
Do you understand who you just took on?
Just wait a little.
How have you been?
I'll tear you apart
using the exact methods you used.
He said we fabricated the current case.
He said Mr. Woo was blinded
with his desire for revenge
How long do you think
this will work on me?
I'm doing this because it does work.
Follow the rules.
Don't play games like last time.
You're humiliated, right?
I would be, if I were you.
Go classic.
What if it ruins
your relationship with her?
They may really kill you.
-There.
-I need to go. Don't stop me.
