(All people, locations, organizations,

in this drama are fictitious.)
We're against Mirae Motors' restructuring.
- We're against it!
- We're against it!
The company's compulsory liquidation
should not be allowed.
- Do not allow it!
- Do not allow it!
We're against the sell-off.
- We're against it!
- We're against it!
We're against Mirae Motors' restructuring.
- We're against it!
- We're against it!
Mirae Motors.
It was dissolved after it was
sold to a foreign company
as the result of the
labour-management conflict.
I know what will happen,
but there is nothing I can do
at the moment.
We're against the sell-off.
- We're against it!
- We're against it!
We're against Mirae Motors' restructuring.
- We're against it!
- We're against it!
Where is Kang Man Chul these days?
Mr. Kang Man Chul of the
Progressive Labour Party, sir?
That's right.
He's at the protest camp at
the factory in Pyeongtaek.
Let's go to Pyeongtaek.
Sorry? Now, sir?
Call him now and tell him I'm on my way.
Tell him I want to have coffee with him.
Yes, sir.
My, look who's here.
I heard even the President
runs out of his office barefoot
to welcome you, Assemblyman Cho Tae Sub.
What brings you to this shabby place?
To have instant coffee with me?
I do not expect you
to run out barefoot to welcome me,
so please buy yourself a new pair of shoes.
It's too much.
People would think it's just for show.
You see, I conscientiously
follow the teachings of Laozi.
I truly believe that less is more.
Excess leads to confusion.
It's fun to be confused.
I heard your son got into Harvard.
I thought a former pro-North
NL activist like yourself
would want to send your children
to the best college in Pyongyang.
That is not up to me.
He is free to go wherever he wants.
That's true.
Whenever I talk to you,
I lose track of time.
Let's get down to business.
This strike.
Let's wrap it up. That way,
it'd look good for both of us.
My, you must be holding a trump card.
Then why not reap the benefits alone?
Why would you want to join hands with us?
A minor party like us doesn't
have much to bring to the table.
I just want to help the workers
and save the company.
You need not bring anything to the table.
My goodness. I'm even more curious now.
Also, are you satisfied with
just serving as party chair?
It's about time you became
the floor leader of a negotiation group.
You won three seats last time.
Just one. The proportional
representation seats don't count.
Right, exactly.
Stop conceding seats to others.
Supporting a single candidacy
sounds nice and all,
but the Daehan Party treats
you like a mere stepping stone.
You're already preparing
for the legislative elections?
I see. Reviving the economy
through bipartisan cooperation.
That's the picture you want.
Gaining more support
alongside someone you can
keep under your thumb
while holding the major
opposition party in check?
Oh, my.
How many birds are you
killing with one stone?
My goodness.
I hate that I love this idea.
All I have to do is stand next to you
and take pictures.
How could I turn down this offer?
- Cho Tae Sub!
- Cho Tae Sub!
- Cho Tae Sub!
- Cho Tae Sub!
- Cho Tae Sub!
- Cho Tae Sub!
Yes!
They made this decision
for the sake of our country.
I must applaud them.
We will work hard
to create an environment
where workers and companies
can thrive together.
- We will do our best.
- Chunha will acquire Mirae Motors?
Things are unfolding differently
from my previous life.
The Mirae Motors strike
has finally been settled
thanks to Assemblyman Cho Tae Sub's
tireless efforts.
At the meeting with other
party leaders, he emphasized
the importance of bipartisan efforts
focused on economic recovery.
The Daehan Party released a statement
He's after
the presidential election,
not the legislative elections.
But the public doesn't seem to agree.
Not a chance.
The approval ratings have reached
another new all-time high.
Next news.
A man broke into the home
of his friend of 40 years
and killed him for not paying back
the money he owed him.
The police have arrested Park,
the prime suspect in the case,
and are investigating
the case at the moment.
That case is
Park's fingerprints were found on
the knife collected at the scene,
so the police believe that it was
most likely a retaliatory murder.
The crime scene re-enactment
will take place today.
(Victim)
Here's the knife.
All right.
From here, you did this
and stabbed again like this, right?
Show us what you did.
I didn't do it.
Goodness. You can't
change your statement now.
This will complicate things.
Don't you remember this knife?
That's
I did grab the knife,
but I never stabbed him
because I thought of my son.
You can't do this now.
We have solid evidence.
If you do this,
you'll get a heavier sentence.
It really wasn't me.
I did not kill him.
- Oh, there he is.
- My goodness.
- I want to see his face.
- You scumbag!
How could you kill someone over money?
Show us your face, you jerk!
- Yes, show us your face!
- Move back, please.
Dad!
It wasn't him. Believe me!
Catch the person who did it.
Why would you arrest my dad?
Dad!
Dad!
Dad
Dad!
Dad
Park Sang Man? You're Park Sang Man, right?
Yes, I am.
Who are you?
I'm going to prove your father's innocence.
(Yooil High School)
You, come here.
But promise me that you won't miss school.
Come here.
Where's your backpack? Stop.
The real culprit will be
revealed ten years later.
So just trust me and study, Park Sang Man.
I can't believe he can study right now.
No wonder he always gets the highest marks.
Hey, watch out.
He may stab you if he loses it,
just like his father.
It won't take too long.
Just hang in there and hold out.
I understand you won't believe me
until you actually see it.
But just trust me.
Even if you step in now, there is nothing
you can do to help your dad.
Hey, little brother.
Hello, sir.
Hi, what's up? Have a seat.
Could you please take a look at this?
("Man Kills His Friend of 40 Years")
What about this case?
I know his son.
I think the police are missing something.
Hey, don't go around poking your nose
into everyone's business.
The homicide clearance rate in Korea
is almost 100 percent.
Look.
- We have the murder weapon.
- Right.
- His prints were found on it.
- Right.
- He was holding a grudge.
- Right.
- Oh, no. And he was drunk.
- Right.
End of story. It's game over.
You see, that's the problem.
From the murder weapon and
motive to his fingerprints,
it's too perfect.
And it was solved too quickly.
- What?
- So quick that no one
could even feel the need
to find evidence against it.
You need to see this.
Here.
Look.
What's this?
This was what he was wearing
the day the murder took place.
You can check the security footage
to confirm that.
What are the chances of having
no blood spatter on your clothes
after stabbing someone? None, right?
But as you can see, it's clean.
Does it look like it had blood stains
that have been removed? No.
As you know, there are many ways
we can confirm it.
Goodness, this is
Sir, the law
was created for the accused.
To make sure that no one
is wrongly convicted.
That should always be our priority,
from what I've learned.
If this is true,
the police are in deep trouble.
The prosecution will come to their rescue?
I like that story.
Is there anything else
you know about this case?
Of course, there is.
Ms. Lee Sun Young.
You are Mr. Hong In Pyo's wife, right?
Yes.
I heard you have often said
you wanted to kill your husband.
Is it true?
I'd like my attorney present.
Okay, sure.
But before that
Here.
(Prosecution Service)
What is this?
You must be happy to see him.
You see, infidelity
is an act of betrayal in and of itself.
I'm surprised you trusted this guy.
Tell us what happened that day.
She called me late at night.
Hey, why did you have to call me back here?
What happened?
Have you lost your mind?
Babe, you said you needed money.
Everything this jerk has is ours now.
We're rich.
This
Take this somewhere far and burn it.
This knife too. Hurry.
Did you kill Hong In Pyo, your husband?
Yes.
I killed him.
Why did you kill him?
I couldn't let such an opportunity pass.
Pay me back at once. My 100 million won!
My hard-earned money!
Hey, buddy.
Why should I? I don't even remember
borrowing money from you.
Do you have proof that you loaned me money?
You How could you do this to me?
Stab me.
Go ahead and stab me.
Do it.
Your smart son, Sang Man.
If you want to ruin his future,
go ahead and stab me!
Oh, boy.
That scumbag deserved to die.
He only cared about himself.
He always belittled and abused
those weaker than himself.
You're right.
I always wanted to kill him.
And I was afraid
he'd find out about my affair.
Prosecutor Jang.
You'll let me off, right?
If you're not careful,
you'll take the fall for everything.
So think wisely.
(1 Day Ago)
That won't happen.
All right, then.
Where did you hide it?
Sorry? Hide what?
You're giving it away by
acting surprised like that.
The evidence from the scene
of Hong In Pyo's murder.
You hid it.
You're barking up the wrong tree.
There seems to be a trend in
hiding spots for things like that.
These days, it's
Right, kimchi refrigerators.
That's where people like to hide stuff.
If I find it,
you'll be charged
with concealing evidence
and aiding and abetting in a murder
No, forget it. I'll just
indict you for murder.
But if you confess now and
make things a bit easier for my team,
I'll think about asking
for a lighter sentence.
So?
Prosecutor Jang.
I'll tell you everything.
Hey, wrap it up.
- Yes, sir.
- Prosecutor Jang.
- Sit down.
- Prosecutor Jang!
Hee Woo was right about everything.
Try to squeeze a confession out
of the wife's boyfriend first.
It's something he can use
to hold leverage over her.
I'm sure he hid it in
a safe place somewhere.
This is like a half-joke,
but there's a trend in hiding spots
for things like that.
You know, first-timers
often copy what they've seen
on TV or in movies.
For example I mean,
I'd hide it in my kimchi refrigerator.
No way.
Just kidding.
But you never know.
Kim Hee Woo.
This punk
How did he know?
- Prosecutor Jang.
- Hello, sir.
Hey, well done. I just heard the news.
I see.
It'll be all over the news
once the media gets a whiff.
I have high hopes for you.
Thank you, sir.
Hey, Hee Woo. Thanks.
You see,
I'm not used to being on the
receiving end of such help,
but I like this.
Keep marching on the
smooth, unhindered road.
I'm just your lumberjack.
Hey, I have to say you're
really growing on me.
You need to step up your game.
This guy is really something.
He'll race up the ladder
once he becomes a prosecutor.
I know.
You'll help me out later on, right?
My gosh. I'm embarrassed.
I still have a lot to learn.
Hey, don't be so modest.
You can show off a little
as long as you do your job well.
Then people will think you're cool.
By the way, Hee Woo. How did you know?
Sorry?
Oh, that.
My gosh. How could I have known?
It was just a coincidence.
You came to me and asked me
to look into it for you.
Everything you told me half-jokingly
turned out to be true.
It was done like a pro.
I was just desperate for help,
and I lucked out.
You kindly listened to me
and solved the case.
I can't thank you enough, sir.
All right. On that note, cheers.
Cheers, guys.
I'll keep marching on.
It was the first case
I worked on as a prosecutor.
Of course, I know everything about it.
But you need to work harder.
- Over here.
- Honey!
- There he is.
- Dad!
Sang Man. Honey!
Don't worry. I'm fine.
You must've been so worried.
- It must've given you a big scare.
- Honey, it must've been so hard.
- You've lost weight.
- No, I'm fine.
- It must've been really stressful.
- No, I'm okay.
- You've lost weight.
- I'm sorry I worried you.
- Even from your face.
- No, I'm really okay.
- Really? How's your health?
- I'm fine.
You saved your father.
It took me ten years.
Please prove my father's innocence.
Please help me, Prosecutor.
You don't look so bad.
I'm fine. I'm sorry I worried you.
The ten years of your life that
you spent on uncovering the truth.
In this life, spend it only for yourself.
- I'm so happy that you got out.
- I know.
(Good luck on your CSAT.)
- Good luck.
- Best of luck!
- Break a leg.
- You can do it.
(College Scholastic Ability Test)
- Good luck.
- You got this!
- Best of luck.
- Break a leg!
Kim Han Mi!
What? Are you here to wish me good luck?
This early? In this cold?
You deserve it.
- As a woman?
- As my student.
Must you be so difficult?
You're well prepared for this.
Relax and do your best.
Were you this nervous too?
Don't worry.
You studied very hard,
so you can expect good results.
What? Look at you all nervous.
I knew you'd be like this,
so I brought you something.
- For me?
- Yes.
What is that?
Lucky charms.
I used these pens last year.
They're filled with the
lucky, bright energy
of this law student at Hankuk University.
You're such a show-off.
That's right.
The smart Kim Hee Woo's pens.
I have a good feeling about this.
Don't worry.
You're smarter than anyone
else I know, and I taught you.
Good luck.
I'm off.
I got this!
- I can do it.
- Good luck.
- Good luck!
- I got this.
(Name: Park Sang Man)
This is nuts.
Why?
Well done. Great job.
How did you do it? My gosh.
Congratulations, Han Mi.
- My gosh.
- Well done.
(The 2009 CSAT Answer Key, Earth Science)
Three, one.
(The 2009 CSAT Identification Slip,
Kim Han Mi)
(Hangang University,
Check Admission Status)
(Kim Han Mi, Accepted)
I should call Hee Woo.
(Deputy Chief Prosecutor)
Hello?
You got into every college you applied to.
Yes.
Major in English at
Sunghwa Women's University.
Shouldn't you congratulate me first?
- I thought you didn't care. Why
- Kim Han Mi.
Are you afraid that I'd go on
and become successful?
- What?
- I studied hard and got in.
I can't even choose my own major
and where I want to study?
Have you forgotten everything already?
Live a quiet life.
Do not choose a career path
that will let your name be known.
Certainly nothing media
or government-related.
Just do as I say,
unless you want to move to a country
where you don't speak the language.
(Hangang University, Accepted)
Journalism and Media Studies
at Hangang University?
Yes.
Good choice.
You'll become a great reporter.
What?
How did you know?
I never told anyone.
It was a shot in the dark.
Most people who choose that department
want to become reporters.
What? Oh, that's true.
I'm proud of you, Han Mi.
And I'm proud of you
for not giving up on me.
I was able to come this far
thanks to your persistence.
Thanks.
No, you're only starting out.
You haven't even taken your first step yet.
Gosh, can't you just
You have this ability
to make me hate you
just before I can stop hating you.
I like that.
In any case, you can thank me later.
Repay me once you become a real reporter.
Okay.
I'll repay you big-time.
I'm sure that day will come.
Cheers.
Okay. I can't wait for that day to come.
Congratulations, Han Mi.
I feel so happy right now.
This doesn't suit me.
Everyone deserves to be happy.
What do you say?
Shall I shower you with happiness today?
- How?
- We'll order more food.
Oh, it's easy.
It sure is.
I'm so happy when a side dish
I randomly ordered at a place like this
turns out to be delicious.
I really am happy now.
Then why the long face?
I'm not sure.
Why can't I just enjoy it?
I guess I wanted validation?
Mom, Dad. You must be tired.
What can I do to help?
What's with the mood?
Was it a bad day for the business?
Gosh, my baby
Son, you see
What's going on?
Your draft notice came in the mail.
You've got to be kidding me.
Why would they send me another one?
(Military Manpower Administration,
Kim Hee Woo)
My goodness.
My son is already old enough
to join the military.
Right.
The military. I forgot about that.
Every country has a military.
Our military employs a conscription system.
If you pass the bar exam,
you can serve as a
military judicial officer.
- That's right!
- But you're a real man,
so don't put it off.
I suggest you get it over with.
Right, I should.
Just so you know, I served
in the special forces.
I can shoot peanuts on the ground
while descending in a parachute.
When I was in the SSU,
I always stayed underwater for over a day.
What are you talking about?
You did KP duty.
In your letters, you always
complained about peeling onions.
I did KP duty in the special forces.
Once, I peeled 1,000 onions at a sitting.
Your mother happened to visit me that day.
She was so touched because
I couldn't stop crying.
She spent the night with me
and went home the next day.
That's cool.
You were conceived that night.
I said, stop.
What? The military?
You have a tendency to do
whatever you want.
He always does whatever he wants.
I can't believe you're giving us a
two-day notice. Just like someone.
I'm upset.
Who's more upset?
I'm being conscripted for the second time.
- What?
- What? Why? What is it?
Anyway, why are you so angry?
- Because you sprang this on us!
- Because you sprang this on us!
Aren't you worried?
How could you be so calm about everything?
Why should I be worried?
It's not my first rodeo.
Then again, it's not like
you'd have to do it again.
Just get it over with.
We'll pass the bar exam before you do.
Okay.
You're so dead. Just wait until
you become my junior colleague.
I'll work you to the bone.
You'd better be prepared.
Sure, anytime.
Goodness. I can't believe this.
Right, what did you mean
by that? Just like who?
You haven't heard?
I was talking about Hee A.
- What?
- She's leaving in two days
to go study abroad.
Oh, I see.
Hello, sir.
What? "Sir"?
You see, he's a man of many secrets.
"Sir"? Who's that?
Do you know who it could be?
No idea. He never tells me
personal things about himself.
Hee Woo is such a charmer.
He's the only guy who intrigues me.
All right, guys. I've got plans.
I have to go.
Look, he's so cool.
Where are you going?
We should go out for farewell drinks.
Let us throw a farewell party for you.
Farewell? I'm not leaving for good.
Time flies by so fast, you know.
Anyway, I'll see you soon.
See you when I'm back.
I'll be back!
Does he think it's
a three-day training drill or something?
Not even. I bet he thinks
it'll be like a temple stay.
(Scherr Real Estate)
I'm off to do my military service.
What about it? I'll see
you when you're back.
You know, the money you gave me.
It's a big amount.
I don't want to let it
sit idle for two years,
but I can't really think of a safe,
secure way to grow it either.
That said
Here.
- Please manage it for me.
- Goodness.
I'm not taking this back. I gave it to you.
Besides, who knows what will happen to me?
Right.
But I can't think of anyone else
who could manage this kind of money.
Is that so?
There is an area
I've been keeping an eye on.
Where?
Banpo.
I knew it.
You're not asking why,
which tells me you already know the reason.
I always knew you had a knack for this.
Please help me out.
Okay.
I shall help you so you can serve
in the military without worries.
Thank you, sir.
Salute.
I've been given another life.
Mom, Dad!
- Kim Kyu Ri!
- I know you want to repay them,
but this is wrong.
You are my friend.
We're all your friends, just like Hee Woo.
I'm a freshman in the
computer engineering program.
I'm Kim Hee A.
And you?
Do you know what it means
to invest in real estate?
If you started for the money,
just look at the money.
Thank you, sir.
I'm changing the future
for the people whom I cherish.
Cho Tae Sub is here to help.
- Cho Tae Sub!
- I'm sorry.
I will have to let my son, Hyun Seok, go.
Cho Tae Sub's life is also slowly changing.
(Dear Youth, Get a Goal
and Make It Come True!)
Then there is Han Ji Hyun.
Are you sure you can go alone?
I can't stop myself from crying.
If the two of you come along,
it's going to be harder for me to go.
I'll just say my goodbyes here.
Be safe. Don't get hurt.
Okay.
Sit down. Let me pay my respects.
All right, we'll accept it.
Father, Mother.
I'll come back safe and sound.
Why didn't you tell me? I'm a little hurt.
What's your excuse?
I guess it's the same reason.
Are you not going?
No, I'll go.
- Hey.
- Just keep walking.
You're supposed to play along
in these situations.
You're the first guy I linked arms with
besides my dad.
I'll leave you here.
Goodbye, Kim Hee Woo.
Let's meet again.
Yes, let's.
Safe travels.
You too.
- I'll get going.
- Okay.
(7 years later)
(Gangwon District Prosecutors' Office,
Gimsan Branch Office)
Hello. I'm Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo.
(Branch Chief Jeon Seok Kyu)
- Kim Hee Woo?
- Yes.
You graduated first
from the training institute.
Yes.
So why are you here?
I came to take you to Seoul.
Me?
- Kim Hee Woo?
- Yes.
You graduated first
from the training institute.
Yes.
So why are you here?
I came to take you to Seoul.
- Me?
- Yes.
Don't you mean you're here
to keep an eye on me?
- You're mistaken.
- About what?
You're not even on the
list of people to watch.
- Is that so?
- Yes.
I'm curious now.
I'm a has-been,
and you have no good reason.
But you came to take me to Seoul?
Reason? I'll find you one.
All right. You can find your room, right?
Investigator Oh Min Guk will
assist you with any questions.
Let's get a drink once
Prosecutor Ji Sung Ho's back.
- Get to work then.
- Yes, sir.
First in the training institute?
That's right.
I've never seen a top-rated prosecutor
in my 15-year career.
And the funny thing is,
he volunteered to come here.
Seriously?
The top-rated prosecutor
applied to our branch office?
- That's right.
- But why?
Isn't it a no-brainer to apply
to Seoul with that resume?
Yes. Isn't it strange?
Of course. Why would anyone apply
to a rural area like this
unless they've lost their minds?
I hope he's not the
super enthusiastic type.
Gosh, those types of guys
always get into trouble.
Don't worry.
There's nothing to be
enthusiastic about here.
The Branch Chief is living proof.
- That's true.
- I love it.
Hello. I'm Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo.
Hello, Mr. Kim.
I'm Investigator Oh Min Guk.
I see. It's nice to meet you.
I work for Mr. Ji. Bye then.
- Is this my desk?
- Yes.
(Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo)
I've prepped your desk with the basics.
Feel free to let me know
if you need anything.
Would it be all right
to ask on my first day?
Gosh, of course.
Would you like some coffee?
No, I'll get that myself.
Let's see.
Please gather all cases and accidents,
criminal and civil,
that happened in this area recently
and report back to me.
- Pardon?
- You said to feel free.
Oh, yes, sure.
What is this unnerving feeling?
I heard we have a newbie?
Yes. My name is Kim Hee Woo.
Let's skip the introductions and go out.
Let's drink.
Goodness, the Branch Chief is here.
Get seated first.
Gosh, what a nice surprise.
You're looking good, Chief.
Work must be easy these days.
- It's all thanks to you, sir.
- He's the mayor.
We're the busy ones solving all the cases.
Things are slow at the branch office.
- It must be nice.
- The chief of police.
You're right, sir.
It's been a while since
I've given you a drink.
He's an assemblyman.
The guy that looks like a country bumpkin,
he's the community leader.
He's the boss of a gang.
They were all born and raised here.
Here you go.
Thank you, sir.
Good job.
I like that you can hold your liquor.
Good boy.
I'm putting in a good word
to the higher-ups, so hang in there.
You have to leave this place
and go somewhere nice.
Thank you, sir.
You saw that, right?
That's the countryside for you.
Connections topple the law here.
They form such a close-knit group.
But they get territorial with outsiders.
These scumbags!
Why are you throwing
a tantrum all of a sudden?
I just felt like it.
I didn't want our newbie to disrespect me.
Your actions now will
make him lose respect.
You should just take on this image too.
You're neither fish nor fowl
when it comes to politics.
That's why you're in this situation.
This solitary way is killing me.
I don't have a single network
I can connect to.
He's drunk again.
Get it together, you punk.
Okay.
Chief.
Don't you want to go to Seoul?
Why do you keep going on about Seoul?
Why?
Even though you got demoted
and got sent here
because you rubbed
the higher-ups the wrong way,
I don't think you've lost all
your spirit from the past.
Are you drunk too?
You've said your fill
of rude comments today.
I know you want to go.
Seoul.
Don't pretend like you don't.
I will send you to Seoul.
- Enough.
- Chief.
Just quietly do your time and go.
That defeats my purpose of coming here.
Why? Is there something
you'd like to get your hands on?
- Yes.
- What is it?
That
I'll report to you once I've
put everything together.
There won't be enough work
to feed your enthusiasm.
Can I freely do as I please?
Freely?
If you allow it, I'd like
to start with my work hours.
Do as you wish.
This branch office has no work anyway.
- Drink up.
- Yes, sir.
It's been a few days,
so what's your take on Mr. Kim?
You were worried that
he might be a handful.
I thought that at first,
so I was super nervous.
And?
Don't be shocked.
He seriously does absolutely nothing.
- He doesn't do squat.
- Nothing?
He doesn't even come to work on some days.
In some ways, he does even less work
than the Branch Chief.
I guess even the top of the class
becomes like everyone else here.
Or he might just be a genius.
He came here to reward himself
for all the years of studying.
It's paid vacation.
If not, he's just a psycho.
A psycho, you say?
What's all this, sir?
I'd like you to reorganize
all of these cases.
- All of them?
- Yes.
I thought this was a quiet area,
but after reviewing the
files you gave me last time,
I found there were quite a lot of cases.
When will I find the
time to finish all this?
Before you go home for the day, of course.
Before I go home for the day?
How do you expect me to finish
I almost forgot. You've heard
of the Yuchae Gang, right?
Yes. They're a local group of gangsters
who operate a few nightclubs in the area.
Local gangsters?
But when I looked at
the investigation reports,
all the cases related to the Yuchae Gang
had a very questionable end.
Don't tell me you plan
to reinvestigate all of those cases.
Yes, that's exactly my plan.
I'll be working outside
the office for a few days.
Oh, right.
Once you're done reorganizing,
send it to me via email.
(Investigator Oh Min Guk)
He wants me to reorganize all of this?
He was a psycho all along.
Sir, it's me, Hee Woo. How have you been?
Yes. I'm going to drop by.
Right now.
Have you been well?
My gosh. What are you doing here, old man?
I'm here to see you, old man.
I'm an actual old man, unlike you.
- Sit down.
- Okay.
Where is Sang Man?
I only took him in
because you pleaded with me.
What's wrong? He's a good kid.
He's pretty good overall.
But he has no respect for the elderly.
He's always talking back
and that temper of his
Goodness. You've got such a good memory.
You're using all your
strength to insult me.
You see? I told you this punk
has no respect whatsoever.
- It's time to take your medicine.
- I'm not taking it, you punk.
Hurry up and take it. Bottoms up.
Drink it all up.
Welcome, Hee Woo.
Hi. It took you a while to greet me.
He requires a lot of attention.
What am I going to do
with this disrespectful brat?
Please teach him well
until I'm done with my training.
Hello. My name is Park Sang Man.
Okay.
So you plan to take him now?
Yes, that's my plan.
- You're ready, right?
- Yes, let's go.
Don't be sad, sir.
Just shut your mouth and go.
Or else I'll keep you here forever.
My gosh, how scary. I'll be back.
Don't forget to take
your medicine while I'm gone.
Okay. Goodbye.
Bye.
- We'll get going then.
- All right.
(Gimsan Billiards Club)
(Gimsan Billiards Club)
This is nice.
It feels refreshing
to go on a business trip.
I withdrew the cash,
but what do you need it for?
Do you plan on buying that building?
Don't get ahead of yourself too much.
You're worrying Mr. Woo.
I went so I could pay you back.
I prepared to bet my life on it.
Are you Kim Hee Woo?
Park Sang Man. How did you find me?
You didn't think you could
hide from me, did you?
I shouldn't be surprised.
You spent ten years
finding the real culprit.
Finding me would've been a piece of cake.
I've been wanting to meet you.
Let me officially introduce myself.
My name is Park Sang Man.
I'm studying computer engineering
at Hankuk University, just like you.
I've gotten scholarships
for every single semester.
I have not dated anyone at school yet.
However, I was fully backed by professors
and fellow male students.
- So that's why I'm here
- He's much brighter than I thought.
Why are you laughing?
Nothing. It's nice to meet you.
I came to repay you for saving my father.
I want to be your hands and
feet from today forth
Or that was the plan.
Helping Mr. Woo is helping me.
So don't miss a single thing
he teaches you, okay?
People are always nagging me
from left and right.
I thought something exciting
would happen on this trip.
Something exciting is
going to happen very soon.
Get the bag.
(Billiards Club)
What do you want?
I heard there is
a gambling house around here.
What are you rambling about?
There's no such thing here,
so keep walking.
Here.
Gosh, you're twisting my arm here.
Let me have some fun too.
Listen up.
You better not judge
this book by its cover.
I mean, you need big money.
Welcome, sir.
Please come on in.
Oh, good shot.
- Sir.
- All right, you can leave.
I'm glad you came, sir.
Next time, just ask for Ms. Kim.
Okay, I'll do that.
Let's go.
Let's go in.
All right, make way for the gentlemen.
I hope you win big, gentlemen.
It's 19 and 17.
Nice.
I'll shuffle now.
I'll spin the wheel.
Sir?
You can get your chips over here.
Okay.
You know the drill, right?
How much would you like?
I'll start with 10 million won.
I'll go ahead and deduct
ten percent in service charges.
We only got 9 million won worth of chips
for 10 million won in cash.
Don't be such a loser.
This is our casino's most popular game.
The rules are simple too.
You just need to match the dice numbers.
As you can see,
the percentage of your winnings
will vary based on the numbers.
Seven has the highest chance of winning,
so you get six times the money.
The numbers, 2 and 11,
have the lowest chance of winning.
So with them, you get 36 times the money.
- Easy, right?
- Yes. It's pretty simple.
No foul play, right?
Come on. This is just a joint
in the neighbourhood.
Then have fun.
Sure.
All right. I'll go for ten.
- I'll go for 9.
- I'll go for 10.
- Go ahead.
- Come on. Nine!
It's eight.
- What was that?
- Come on. Seriously?
- Darn it.
- Are you serious?
- I should have gone for that.
- What is this?
- I don't have a lot of money left.
- I can't believe this.
- I have a good feeling about this.
- All right.
- Let's go.
- Ten!
- Eleven!
- Ten!
- Ten!
- Four!
- Come on.
- Ten!
- Ten.
- Three.
- Seven.
- Nine!
- It's six.
- Come on.
- I lost again.
- Come on.
- I lost so much money.
- Come on.
- Seriously.
- Darn it.
- What is this?
- I should just go.
Eight.
It's seven.
- Five.
- Six.
Eight. Five.
Seven. Nine.
Will you keep playing?
Sure.
- Sang Man.
- Yes.
Exchange the rest of the money into chips.
- Yes, sir.
- One more thing.
Don't forget to bring the note.
Let's continue.
I have a good feeling about it.
I'm going all-in on seven.
- What? He's going all-in?
- He's going all-in?
Gosh. How much is he
going to get if he wins?
- It will be 42 million won.
- Gosh. That's a lot of money.
- That's crazy.
- No way.
Wait.
Let me change it to six.
- Why did he change it?
- Six.
- Will you change it to six?
- He shouldn't do that.
- The corner of her lips are raised.
- Why did he do that?
I'm not sure. Eight is calling me too.
- Hurry.
- Come on. Hurry up.
Or six?
She seems relaxed. Then
Seven.
Is that your final number?
I'm sorry. Now that I went all-in,
I do want to think a bit more.
Wait.
Well, six?
No. My final number is seven.
Hold on.
Gosh. I'm sorry.
Let me change it one last time.
Come on.
I'll go with six.
It's seven.
- I knew it.
- Why did he change it?
Gosh. He lost all that money.
- He should have gone with it.
- I knew he would get it wrong.
Will you stop playing?
Yes.
I used up all the money I brought.
Good game.
You lost on purpose, right?
You kept changing the numbers.
You're not the type to hesitate.
That's why I kept observing the dealer.
Gosh. When I kept observing her,
it was obvious. It was like a pattern.
When you changed the number in the end,
she seemed so relieved.
Before, she was so anxious.
It was very subtle, but I caught that.
Pretty good.
After spending time with Mr. Woo,
I ended up learning more tricks.
At least, you learned something.
That's great.
You're not the type
to just blow your money.
You wouldn't do something like that
to get on the good side of a pretty dealer.
I can get on her good side
without blowing my money. Right?
You're still bragging
even after that painful defeat.
You have my respect.
Come on. What's this about?
You even brought me here.
Hey, if you know, it won't be fun.
You'll find out along the way.
Anyway, we're on our way to Seoul.
- Turn off the light.
- Okay.
Can I sleep with you on the bed
- Don't cross the line.
- Okay.
(Gangwon District Prosecutors' Office,
Gimsan Branch Office)
What? You're here early today, Mr. Kim.
Yes. I read all the files you emailed me.
And?
Can you look into these cases
one more time?
I narrowed down the list
to the cases where the police
might have missed something.
I see. Okay.
When do you need it by?
Before you go home for the day, of course.
Right. Email me the files once you're done.
One more thing. I'll be working
outside the office again.
That total psycho.
Gosh. He's driving me crazy.
What's good here?
That one is easy.
Flounders are in season right now.
- I'll have that.
- Okay.
My name is Do Hwa Jin.
- Why did you do it?
- What do you mean?
You lost on purpose yesterday.
Gosh. No way.
I would have gotten
40 million won had I won.
What do you want?
Good game.
I need to talk to you.
If you're looking for a partner
to join your scheme, I'm done here.
I guess you can put it that way,
but mine is a bit different.
Are you interested in me?
Gosh. It took a long time to settle on you.
But you keep disappointing me.
Do you think I'm that boring?
Let's not beat around the bush.
Get to the point.
I want information on Yuchae Gang,
which operates the gambling house.
Who are you?
I'm Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo from the
District Prosecutors' Gimsan Branch.
(Kim Hee Woo, Prosecution Service)
(Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo)
Why are you calling me so late?
I'm going to bring down the Yuchae Gang.
What?
Hey, what did you just say?
I'm going to bring down the Yuchae Gang.
Do you have evidence?
I can make evidence now.
Gosh. What's gotten into you?
They are running illegal gambling dens.
That's enough reason to go after them.
I'm requesting backup from the police.
Hey, you punk. Listen up.
I don't know what you're doing.
But it's dangerous. Don't do it.
I'm a prosecutor.
I should resign if that's going
to stop me from doing my job.
Gosh. You're lecturing me about ethics now?
Didn't you see them when we drank together?
They are gangsters,
but they think they are the government.
The police are on their side too.
I bet they even make kimchi together.
They will be asking
for the police to back them up.
Don't do it. You know nothing
about this town.
That's not going to get you anywhere!
I will follow your example
in Seoul.
What? Kim Hee Woo.
I'll report to you later.
Hey, Kim Hee Woo!
Hey!
Gosh. That crazy jerk.
(Gimsan Billiards Club)
Hee Woo. Are you sure
this isn't too dangerous?
Of course, it's dangerous.
But it won't be once I'm there.
Why? Because it's me.
That's sexy.
Would you marry me?
That's annoying.
Would you like me to punch you?
You're handsome.
Stop talking nonsense.
Just make sure you time it right.
Yes, sir.
Here I go.
He's so cool.
(Billiards Club)
(Gimsan Billiards Club)
My goodness. It's nice to see you.
You're back.
Are you going to play the dice game again?
No.
Then
All right. Everyone. I need your attention.
Attention!
I'm from the District Prosecutors'
Gimsan Branch Office.
Everyone in here has violated
Articles 246 and 247 of the penal code.
You're under arrest.
- Be quiet.
- What?
I see. You were a prosecutor.
Then where are your manners?
Prosecutors are supposed to be educated.
Do you have a warrant?
No. I was taught
that I didn't need one
to arrest criminals in the act.
Is that so?
Then I guess you lack field training.
But I am very understanding
when it comes to that.
Okay. Our young prosecutor here
was upset by yesterday's incident.
I understand.
You could have just told me
how you felt. No hard feelings.
I mean, look at this! It's a hassle.
You just inconvenienced everyone.
All right.
It's all right.
- Great.
- Right?
I'll add the bribery charge to your list.
So you're serious about this.
Hey, Mr. Prosecutor.
You're going to regret this.
This is Gimsan.
Do you know why our local shrimps
are so plump and tasty?
Because they feed on human corpses.
Do you want me to throw you into
the shrimp fishery by the ocean?
Gosh. You're threatening
a prosecutor on top of that?
I'll add obstruction of justice too.
You.
You'll end up in the slammer
for a long time.
- Goodness.
- Oh, no.
- You little
- Gosh.
I showed you my respect.
But you don't seem
to accept my sincere respect.
Hyun Jong, give me my tool.
- Goodness!
- What's going on?
- Oh, no.
- Gosh.
Then you must die.
Don't you know that
you'll get a heavier sentence
if you attack me with a knife?
Too bad I never learned that,
you annoying prosecutor.
- You crazy jerk.
- You little
Wait.
My goodness. You have
a lot of manpower here.
It's me.
Right now.
- What's going on?
- What just happened?
- What is this?
- Who did that?
- Who on earth
- Oh, no.
I'm not done yet.
Sang Man!
Everyone, freeze!
Sang Man!
- What's going on?
- What?
- Mister.
- Don't move.
- Who are you?
- Get your hands off me.
- Who are you?
- Come on.
- Sang Man.
- Hee Woo!
Investigator Oh, what's going on?
I'm here as backup.
He was suspiciously hovering
around the circuit breaker.
I can understand that.
I can't do it out in the open.
He's on our side. He's here to help us.
See? Did you hear that?
He is?
Anyway, I'm not done up there.
You two, stay safe.
I'll see you later. Okay?
Okay.
You didn't have to come out to greet me.
Let's get back inside.
Come on.
Gosh. Why are there so many of you
when the business is so small?
Guys. Listen. Do you even have
a lounge where you can rest?
I'm a prosecutor
Well, you probably don't care.
Hey.
We don't have much time. Let's get started.
- Come at me!
- Hey!
Gosh, those jerks. They drained my energy.
All right. So things are
pretty much done here. Right?
Yes. Of course.
Okay. Let's go now.
Okay.
There's an office next to
the chip exchange point.
That's the base for the Yuchae Gang.
It's an office, but not
even dealers can go in.
You'll probably find what you want there.
Look at that. They were all in here.
Investigator Oh.
- Yes, sir.
- We're going to seize
all the files in this office.
Yes, sir. I'll go and bring in the boxes.
Sang Man, hack their computer and
compare the data to the ledgers.
Yes, sir.
But do you think you can hack
Yes, you can.
Right. You even hacked into the server
of the prosecutors' office
to clear his father's name.
Who are you?
(Authorized Personnel Only)
Investigator Oh, are you okay?
Yes. I'm okay.
Gosh.
Darn it.
- Sang Man.
- Yes.
Let's go.
Goodness.
Gosh. It's nice to see you, Lee Hyun Seok.
- Do you know me?
- I came here for you.
Of course, I know you.
Then you must know who I work for.
You bet.
But you should start
working for me from now on.
I know you want to use
your skills for a good cause.
You don't have much time
until I rip your mouth.
This?
Gosh. Why do you have to be so scary?
You're scaring me.
Fine.
I'll beat you.
Then you have to do what I say. Got it?
Sure.
No settlement money even
if I rip your mouth.
I'm in.
Lee Hyun Seok.
At this rate, he'll be
the number one fighter
in a couple of years.
This time around,
I won't let him live that life.
Gosh. That punk.
- Sang Man.
- Yes.
- This guy What?
- Should I kill him?
That's what they do in the movies.
He almost beat me.
What are you talking about?
I need to give him a job.
- Where's he going to work?
- Under you.
What?
We needed some help anyway.
And he can be your bodyguard too.
Gosh. I think I need a bodyguard
to protect me from him.
Gosh.
Hey, he won't bite. Don't worry.
He'll be a good asset.
- Train him well.
- But
Yes, sir.
Hey. Get up.
Kim Hee Woo.
Why did you come down here?
I just wanted to see the ocean.
I'm going to skin him alive myself.
- What did you say, you jerk?
- Hey.
If it's rotten, we ought to carve it out.
- Apologize to him now.
- It was you, right?
We want to investigate
under your supervision.

to welcome you, Assemblyman Cho Tae Sub.

To have instant coffee with me?

to run out barefoot to welcome me,
so please buy yourself a new pair of shoes.

have much to bring to the table.

just serving as party chair?

the floor leader of a negotiation group.
You won three seats last time.
Just one. The proportional

has finally been settled
thanks to Assemblyman Cho Tae Sub's
tireless efforts.
At the meeting with other

the importance of bipartisan efforts

not the legislative elections.

of his friend of 40 years
and killed him for not paying back
the money he owed him.
The police have arrested Park,
the prime suspect in the case,
and are investigating
the case at the moment.
That case is
Park's fingerprints were found on
the knife collected at the scene,
so the police believe that it was
most likely a retaliatory murder.

will take place today.

Here's the knife.

From here, you did this
and stabbed again like this, right?
Show us what you did.

change your statement now.
This will complicate things.

I did grab the knife,
but I never stabbed him
because I thought of my son.

If you do this,
you'll get a heavier sentence.

I did not kill him.
- Oh, there he is.
- My goodness.
- I want to see his face.
- You scumbag!
How could you kill someone over money?
Show us your face, you jerk!
- Yes, show us your face!
- Move back, please.

He may stab you if he loses it,

until you actually see it.
But just trust me.

is almost 100 percent.

- We have the murder weapon.
- Right.
- His prints were found on it.
- Right.
- He was holding a grudge.
- Right.
- Oh, no. And he was drunk.
- Right.
End of story. It's game over.
You see, that's the problem.
From the murder weapon and
motive to his fingerprints,
it's too perfect.
And it was solved too quickly.
- What?
- So quick that no one
could even feel the need
to find evidence against it.
You need to see this.
Here.
Look.
What's this?
This was what he was wearing
the day the murder took place.
You can check the security footage
to confirm that.
What are the chances of having
no blood spatter on your clothes
after stabbing someone? None, right?
But as you can see, it's clean.
Does it look like it had blood stains
that have been removed? No.
As you know, there are many ways
we can confirm it.
Goodness, this is
Sir, the law
was created for the accused.
To make sure that no one
is wrongly convicted.
That should always be our priority,
from what I've learned.
If this is true,
the police are in deep trouble.
The prosecution will come to their rescue?
I like that story.
Is there anything else
you know about this case?
Of course, there is.
Ms. Lee Sun Young.
You are Mr. Hong In Pyo's wife, right?
Yes.
I heard you have often said
you wanted to kill your husband.
Is it true?
I'd like my attorney present.
Okay, sure.
But before that
Here.
(Prosecution Service)
What is this?
You must be happy to see him.
You see, infidelity
is an act of betrayal in and of itself.
I'm surprised you trusted this guy.
Tell us what happened that day.
She called me late at night.
Hey, why did you have to call me back here?
What happened?
Have you lost your mind?
Babe, you said you needed money.
Everything this jerk has is ours now.
We're rich.
This
Take this somewhere far and burn it.
This knife too. Hurry.
Did you kill Hong In Pyo, your husband?
Yes.
I killed him.
Why did you kill him?
I couldn't let such an opportunity pass.
Pay me back at once. My 100 million won!
My hard-earned money!
Hey, buddy.
Why should I? I don't even remember
borrowing money from you.
Do you have proof that you loaned me money?
You How could you do this to me?
Stab me.
Go ahead and stab me.
Do it.
Your smart son, Sang Man.
If you want to ruin his future,
go ahead and stab me!
Oh, boy.
That scumbag deserved to die.
He only cared about himself.
He always belittled and abused
those weaker than himself.
You're right.
I always wanted to kill him.
And I was afraid
he'd find out about my affair.
Prosecutor Jang.
You'll let me off, right?
If you're not careful,
you'll take the fall for everything.
So think wisely.
(1 Day Ago)
That won't happen.
All right, then.
Where did you hide it?
Sorry? Hide what?
You're giving it away by
acting surprised like that.
The evidence from the scene
of Hong In Pyo's murder.
You hid it.
You're barking up the wrong tree.
There seems to be a trend in
hiding spots for things like that.
These days, it's
Right, kimchi refrigerators.
That's where people like to hide stuff.
If I find it,
you'll be charged
with concealing evidence
and aiding and abetting in a murder
No, forget it. I'll just
indict you for murder.
But if you confess now and
make things a bit easier for my team,
I'll think about asking
for a lighter sentence.
So?
Prosecutor Jang.
I'll tell you everything.
Hey, wrap it up.
- Yes, sir.
- Prosecutor Jang.
- Sit down.
- Prosecutor Jang!
Hee Woo was right about everything.
Try to squeeze a confession out
of the wife's boyfriend first.
It's something he can use
to hold leverage over her.
I'm sure he hid it in
a safe place somewhere.
This is like a half-joke,
but there's a trend in hiding spots
for things like that.
You know, first-timers
often copy what they've seen
on TV or in movies.
For example I mean,
I'd hide it in my kimchi refrigerator.
No way.
Just kidding.
But you never know.
Kim Hee Woo.
This punk
How did he know?
- Prosecutor Jang.
- Hello, sir.
Hey, well done. I just heard the news.
I see.
It'll be all over the news
once the media gets a whiff.
I have high hopes for you.
Thank you, sir.
Hey, Hee Woo. Thanks.
You see,
I'm not used to being on the
receiving end of such help,
but I like this.
Keep marching on the
smooth, unhindered road.
I'm just your lumberjack.
Hey, I have to say you're
really growing on me.
You need to step up your game.
This guy is really something.
He'll race up the ladder
once he becomes a prosecutor.
I know.
You'll help me out later on, right?
My gosh. I'm embarrassed.
I still have a lot to learn.
Hey, don't be so modest.
You can show off a little
as long as you do your job well.
Then people will think you're cool.
By the way, Hee Woo. How did you know?
Sorry?
Oh, that.
My gosh. How could I have known?
It was just a coincidence.
You came to me and asked me
to look into it for you.
Everything you told me half-jokingly
turned out to be true.
It was done like a pro.
I was just desperate for help,
and I lucked out.
You kindly listened to me
and solved the case.
I can't thank you enough, sir.
All right. On that note, cheers.
Cheers, guys.
I'll keep marching on.
It was the first case
I worked on as a prosecutor.
Of course, I know everything about it.
But you need to work harder.
- Over here.
- Honey!
- There he is.
- Dad!
Sang Man. Honey!
Don't worry. I'm fine.
You must've been so worried.
- It must've given you a big scare.
- Honey, it must've been so hard.
- You've lost weight.
- No, I'm fine.
- It must've been really stressful.
- No, I'm okay.
- You've lost weight.
- I'm sorry I worried you.
- Even from your face.
- No, I'm really okay.
- Really? How's your health?
- I'm fine.
You saved your father.
It took me ten years.
Please prove my father's innocence.
Please help me, Prosecutor.
You don't look so bad.
I'm fine. I'm sorry I worried you.
The ten years of your life that
you spent on uncovering the truth.
In this life, spend it only for yourself.
- I'm so happy that you got out.
- I know.
(Good luck on your CSAT.)
- Good luck.
- Best of luck!
- Break a leg.
- You can do it.
(College Scholastic Ability Test)
- Good luck.
- You got this!
- Best of luck.
- Break a leg!
Kim Han Mi!
What? Are you here to wish me good luck?
This early? In this cold?
You deserve it.
- As a woman?
- As my student.
Must you be so difficult?
You're well prepared for this.
Relax and do your best.
Were you this nervous too?
Don't worry.
You studied very hard,
so you can expect good results.
What? Look at you all nervous.
I knew you'd be like this,
so I brought you something.
- For me?
- Yes.
What is that?
Lucky charms.
I used these pens last year.
They're filled with the
lucky, bright energy
of this law student at Hankuk University.
You're such a show-off.
That's right.
The smart Kim Hee Woo's pens.
I have a good feeling about this.
Don't worry.
You're smarter than anyone
else I know, and I taught you.
Good luck.
I'm off.
I got this!
- I can do it.
- Good luck.
- Good luck!
- I got this.
(Name: Park Sang Man)
This is nuts.
Why?
Well done. Great job.
How did you do it? My gosh.
Congratulations, Han Mi.
- My gosh.
- Well done.

(Deputy Chief Prosecutor)
Hello?
You got into every college you applied to.
Yes.
Major in English at
Sunghwa Women's University.
Shouldn't you congratulate me first?
- I thought you didn't care. Why
- Kim Han Mi.
Are you afraid that I'd go on
and become successful?
- What?
- I studied hard and got in.
I can't even choose my own major
and where I want to study?
Have you forgotten everything already?
Live a quiet life.
Do not choose a career path
that will let your name be known.
Certainly nothing media
or government-related.
Just do as I say,
unless you want to move to a country
where you don't speak the language.
(Hangang University, Accepted)
Journalism and Media Studies
at Hangang University?
Yes.
Good choice.
You'll become a great reporter.
What?
How did you know?
I never told anyone.
It was a shot in the dark.
Most people who choose that department
want to become reporters.
What? Oh, that's true.
I'm proud of you, Han Mi.
And I'm proud of you
for not giving up on me.
I was able to come this far
thanks to your persistence.
Thanks.
No, you're only starting out.
You haven't even taken your first step yet.
Gosh, can't you just
You have this ability
to make me hate you
just before I can stop hating you.
I like that.
In any case, you can thank me later.
Repay me once you become a real reporter.
Okay.
I'll repay you big-time.
I'm sure that day will come.
Cheers.
Okay. I can't wait for that day to come.
Congratulations, Han Mi.
I feel so happy right now.
This doesn't suit me.
Everyone deserves to be happy.
What do you say?
Shall I shower you with happiness today?
- How?
- We'll order more food.
Oh, it's easy.
It sure is.
I'm so happy when a side dish
I randomly ordered at a place like this
turns out to be delicious.
I really am happy now.
Then why the long face?
I'm not sure.
Why can't I just enjoy it?
I guess I wanted validation?
Mom, Dad. You must be tired.
What can I do to help?
What's with the mood?
Was it a bad day for the business?
Gosh, my baby
Son, you see
What's going on?
Your draft notice came in the mail.
You've got to be kidding me.
Why would they send me another one?
(Military Manpower Administration,
Kim Hee Woo)
My goodness.
My son is already old enough
to join the military.
Right.
The military. I forgot about that.
Every country has a military.
Our military employs a conscription system.
If you pass the bar exam,
you can serve as a
military judicial officer.
- That's right!
- But you're a real man,
so don't put it off.
I suggest you get it over with.
Right, I should.
Just so you know, I served
in the special forces.
I can shoot peanuts on the ground
while descending in a parachute.
When I was in the SSU,
I always stayed underwater for over a day.
What are you talking about?
You did KP duty.
In your letters, you always
complained about peeling onions.
I did KP duty in the special forces.
Once, I peeled 1,000 onions at a sitting.
Your mother happened to visit me that day.
She was so touched because
I couldn't stop crying.
She spent the night with me
and went home the next day.
That's cool.
You were conceived that night.
I said, stop.
What? The military?
You have a tendency to do
whatever you want.
He always does whatever he wants.
I can't believe you're giving us a
two-day notice. Just like someone.
I'm upset.
Who's more upset?
I'm being conscripted for the second time.
- What?
- What? Why? What is it?
Anyway, why are you so angry?
- Because you sprang this on us!
- Because you sprang this on us!
Aren't you worried?
How could you be so calm about everything?
Why should I be worried?
It's not my first rodeo.
Then again, it's not like
you'd have to do it again.
Just get it over with.
We'll pass the bar exam before you do.
Okay.
You're so dead. Just wait until
you become my junior colleague.
I'll work you to the bone.
You'd better be prepared.
Sure, anytime.
Goodness. I can't believe this.
Right, what did you mean
by that? Just like who?
You haven't heard?
I was talking about Hee A.
- What?
- She's leaving in two days
to go study abroad.
Oh, I see.
Hello, sir.
What? "Sir"?
You see, he's a man of many secrets.
"Sir"? Who's that?
Do you know who it could be?
No idea. He never tells me
personal things about himself.
Hee Woo is such a charmer.
He's the only guy who intrigues me.
All right, guys. I've got plans.
I have to go.
Look, he's so cool.
Where are you going?
We should go out for farewell drinks.
Let us throw a farewell party for you.
Farewell? I'm not leaving for good.
Time flies by so fast, you know.
Anyway, I'll see you soon.
See you when I'm back.
I'll be back!
Does he think it's
a three-day training drill or something?
Not even. I bet he thinks
it'll be like a temple stay.
(Scherr Real Estate)
I'm off to do my military service.
What about it? I'll see
you when you're back.
You know, the money you gave me.
It's a big amount.
I don't want to let it
sit idle for two years,
but I can't really think of a safe,
secure way to grow it either.
That said
Here.
- Please manage it for me.
- Goodness.
I'm not taking this back. I gave it to you.
Besides, who knows what will happen to me?
Right.
But I can't think of anyone else
who could manage this kind of money.
Is that so?
There is an area
I've been keeping an eye on.
Where?
Banpo.
I knew it.
You're not asking why,
which tells me you already know the reason.
I always knew you had a knack for this.
Please help me out.
Okay.
I shall help you so you can serve
in the military without worries.
Thank you, sir.
Salute.

but this is wrong.

it's going to be harder for me to go.

Be safe. Don't get hurt.
Okay.
Sit down. Let me pay my respects.
All right, we'll accept it.
Father, Mother.
I'll come back safe and sound.
Why didn't you tell me? I'm a little hurt.
What's your excuse?
I guess it's the same reason.
Are you not going?
No, I'll go.
- Hey.
- Just keep walking.
You're supposed to play along
in these situations.
You're the first guy I linked arms with
besides my dad.
I'll leave you here.
Goodbye, Kim Hee Woo.
Let's meet again.
Yes, let's.
Safe travels.
You too.
- I'll get going.
- Okay.
(7 years later)
(Gangwon District Prosecutors' Office,
Gimsan Branch Office)
Hello. I'm Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo.
(Branch Chief Jeon Seok Kyu)
- Kim Hee Woo?
- Yes.
You graduated first
from the training institute.
Yes.
So why are you here?
I came to take you to Seoul.
Me?
- Kim Hee Woo?
- Yes.
You graduated first
from the training institute.
Yes.
So why are you here?
I came to take you to Seoul.
- Me?
- Yes.
Don't you mean you're here
to keep an eye on me?
- You're mistaken.
- About what?
You're not even on the
list of people to watch.
- Is that so?
- Yes.
I'm curious now.
I'm a has-been,
and you have no good reason.
But you came to take me to Seoul?
Reason? I'll find you one.
All right. You can find your room, right?
Investigator Oh Min Guk will
assist you with any questions.
Let's get a drink once
Prosecutor Ji Sung Ho's back.
- Get to work then.
- Yes, sir.
First in the training institute?
That's right.
I've never seen a top-rated prosecutor
in my 15-year career.
And the funny thing is,
he volunteered to come here.
Seriously?
The top-rated prosecutor
applied to our branch office?
- That's right.
- But why?
Isn't it a no-brainer to apply
to Seoul with that resume?
Yes. Isn't it strange?
Of course. Why would anyone apply
to a rural area like this
unless they've lost their minds?
I hope he's not the
super enthusiastic type.
Gosh, those types of guys
always get into trouble.
Don't worry.
There's nothing to be
enthusiastic about here.
The Branch Chief is living proof.
- That's true.
- I love it.
Hello. I'm Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo.
Hello, Mr. Kim.
I'm Investigator Oh Min Guk.
I see. It's nice to meet you.
I work for Mr. Ji. Bye then.
- Is this my desk?
- Yes.
(Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo)
I've prepped your desk with the basics.
Feel free to let me know
if you need anything.
Would it be all right
to ask on my first day?
Gosh, of course.
Would you like some coffee?
No, I'll get that myself.
Let's see.
Please gather all cases and accidents,
criminal and civil,
that happened in this area recently
and report back to me.
- Pardon?
- You said to feel free.
Oh, yes, sure.
What is this unnerving feeling?
I heard we have a newbie?
Yes. My name is Kim Hee Woo.
Let's skip the introductions and go out.
Let's drink.
Goodness, the Branch Chief is here.
Get seated first.
Gosh, what a nice surprise.
You're looking good, Chief.
Work must be easy these days.
- It's all thanks to you, sir.
- He's the mayor.
We're the busy ones solving all the cases.
Things are slow at the branch office.
- It must be nice.
- The chief of police.
You're right, sir.
It's been a while since
I've given you a drink.
He's an assemblyman.
The guy that looks like a country bumpkin,
he's the community leader.
He's the boss of a gang.
They were all born and raised here.
Here you go.
Thank you, sir.
Good job.
I like that you can hold your liquor.
Good boy.
I'm putting in a good word
to the higher-ups, so hang in there.
You have to leave this place
and go somewhere nice.
Thank you, sir.
You saw that, right?
That's the countryside for you.
Connections topple the law here.
They form such a close-knit group.
But they get territorial with outsiders.
These scumbags!
Why are you throwing
a tantrum all of a sudden?
I just felt like it.
I didn't want our newbie to disrespect me.
Your actions now will
make him lose respect.
You should just take on this image too.
You're neither fish nor fowl
when it comes to politics.
That's why you're in this situation.
This solitary way is killing me.
I don't have a single network
I can connect to.
He's drunk again.
Get it together, you punk.
Okay.
Chief.
Don't you want to go to Seoul?
Why do you keep going on about Seoul?
Why?
Even though you got demoted
and got sent here
because you rubbed
the higher-ups the wrong way,
I don't think you've lost all
your spirit from the past.
Are you drunk too?
You've said your fill
of rude comments today.
I know you want to go.
Seoul.
Don't pretend like you don't.
I will send you to Seoul.
- Enough.
- Chief.
Just quietly do your time and go.
That defeats my purpose of coming here.
Why? Is there something
you'd like to get your hands on?
- Yes.
- What is it?
That
I'll report to you once I've
put everything together.
There won't be enough work
to feed your enthusiasm.
Can I freely do as I please?
Freely?
If you allow it, I'd like
to start with my work hours.
Do as you wish.
This branch office has no work anyway.
- Drink up.
- Yes, sir.
It's been a few days,
so what's your take on Mr. Kim?
You were worried that
he might be a handful.
I thought that at first,
so I was super nervous.
And?
Don't be shocked.
He seriously does absolutely nothing.
- He doesn't do squat.
- Nothing?
He doesn't even come to work on some days.
In some ways, he does even less work
than the Branch Chief.
I guess even the top of the class
becomes like everyone else here.
Or he might just be a genius.
He came here to reward himself
for all the years of studying.
It's paid vacation.
If not, he's just a psycho.
A psycho, you say?
What's all this, sir?
I'd like you to reorganize
all of these cases.
- All of them?
- Yes.
I thought this was a quiet area,
but after reviewing the
files you gave me last time,
I found there were quite a lot of cases.
When will I find the
time to finish all this?
Before you go home for the day, of course.
Before I go home for the day?
How do you expect me to finish
I almost forgot. You've heard
of the Yuchae Gang, right?
Yes. They're a local group of gangsters
who operate a few nightclubs in the area.
Local gangsters?
But when I looked at
the investigation reports,
all the cases related to the Yuchae Gang
had a very questionable end.
Don't tell me you plan
to reinvestigate all of those cases.
Yes, that's exactly my plan.
I'll be working outside
the office for a few days.
Oh, right.
Once you're done reorganizing,
send it to me via email.
(Investigator Oh Min Guk)
He wants me to reorganize all of this?
He was a psycho all along.
Sir, it's me, Hee Woo. How have you been?
Yes. I'm going to drop by.
Right now.
Have you been well?
My gosh. What are you doing here, old man?
I'm here to see you, old man.
I'm an actual old man, unlike you.
- Sit down.
- Okay.
Where is Sang Man?
I only took him in
because you pleaded with me.
What's wrong? He's a good kid.
He's pretty good overall.
But he has no respect for the elderly.
He's always talking back
and that temper of his
Goodness. You've got such a good memory.
You're using all your
strength to insult me.
You see? I told you this punk
has no respect whatsoever.
- It's time to take your medicine.
- I'm not taking it, you punk.
Hurry up and take it. Bottoms up.
Drink it all up.
Welcome, Hee Woo.
Hi. It took you a while to greet me.
He requires a lot of attention.
What am I going to do
with this disrespectful brat?
Please teach him well
until I'm done with my training.
Hello. My name is Park Sang Man.
Okay.
So you plan to take him now?
Yes, that's my plan.
- You're ready, right?
- Yes, let's go.
Don't be sad, sir.
Just shut your mouth and go.
Or else I'll keep you here forever.
My gosh, how scary. I'll be back.
Don't forget to take
your medicine while I'm gone.
Okay. Goodbye.
Bye.
- We'll get going then.
- All right.

This is nice.
It feels refreshing
to go on a business trip.
I withdrew the cash,
but what do you need it for?
Do you plan on buying that building?
Don't get ahead of yourself too much.
You're worrying Mr. Woo.
I went so I could pay you back.
I prepared to bet my life on it.
Are you Kim Hee Woo?
Park Sang Man. How did you find me?
You didn't think you could
hide from me, did you?
I shouldn't be surprised.
You spent ten years
finding the real culprit.
Finding me would've been a piece of cake.
I've been wanting to meet you.
Let me officially introduce myself.
My name is Park Sang Man.
I'm studying computer engineering
at Hankuk University, just like you.
I've gotten scholarships
for every single semester.
I have not dated anyone at school yet.
However, I was fully backed by professors
and fellow male students.
- So that's why I'm here
- He's much brighter than I thought.
Why are you laughing?
Nothing. It's nice to meet you.
I came to repay you for saving my father.
I want to be your hands and
feet from today forth
Or that was the plan.
Helping Mr. Woo is helping me.
So don't miss a single thing
he teaches you, okay?
People are always nagging me
from left and right.
I thought something exciting
would happen on this trip.
Something exciting is
going to happen very soon.
Get the bag.
(Billiards Club)
What do you want?
I heard there is
a gambling house around here.
What are you rambling about?
There's no such thing here,
so keep walking.
Here.
Gosh, you're twisting my arm here.
Let me have some fun too.
Listen up.
You better not judge
this book by its cover.
I mean, you need big money.
Welcome, sir.
Please come on in.
Oh, good shot.
- Sir.
- All right, you can leave.
I'm glad you came, sir.
Next time, just ask for Ms. Kim.
Okay, I'll do that.
Let's go.
Let's go in.
All right, make way for the gentlemen.
I hope you win big, gentlemen.
It's 19 and 17.
Nice.
I'll shuffle now.
I'll spin the wheel.
Sir?
You can get your chips over here.
Okay.
You know the drill, right?
How much would you like?
I'll start with 10 million won.
I'll go ahead and deduct
ten percent in service charges.
We only got 9 million won worth of chips
for 10 million won in cash.
Don't be such a loser.
This is our casino's most popular game.
The rules are simple too.
You just need to match the dice numbers.
As you can see,
the percentage of your winnings
will vary based on the numbers.
Seven has the highest chance of winning,
so you get six times the money.
The numbers, 2 and 11,
have the lowest chance of winning.
So with them, you get 36 times the money.
- Easy, right?
- Yes. It's pretty simple.
No foul play, right?
Come on. This is just a joint
in the neighbourhood.
Then have fun.
Sure.
All right. I'll go for ten.
- I'll go for 9.
- I'll go for 10.
- Go ahead.
- Come on. Nine!
It's eight.
- What was that?
- Come on. Seriously?
- Darn it.
- Are you serious?
- I should have gone for that.
- What is this?
- I don't have a lot of money left.
- I can't believe this.
- I have a good feeling about this.
- All right.
- Let's go.
- Ten!
- Eleven!
- Ten!
- Ten!
- Four!
- Come on.
- Ten!
- Ten.
- Three.
- Seven.
- Nine!
- It's six.
- Come on.
- I lost again.
- Come on.
- I lost so much money.
- Come on.
- Seriously.
- Darn it.
- What is this?
- I should just go.
Eight.
It's seven.
- Five.
- Six.
Eight. Five.
Seven. Nine.
Will you keep playing?
Sure.
- Sang Man.
- Yes.
Exchange the rest of the money into chips.
- Yes, sir.
- One more thing.
Don't forget to bring the note.
Let's continue.
I have a good feeling about it.
I'm going all-in on seven.
- What? He's going all-in?
- He's going all-in?
Gosh. How much is he
going to get if he wins?
- It will be 42 million won.
- Gosh. That's a lot of money.
- That's crazy.
- No way.
Wait.
Let me change it to six.
- Why did he change it?
- Six.
- Will you change it to six?
- He shouldn't do that.
- The corner of her lips are raised.
- Why did he do that?
I'm not sure. Eight is calling me too.
- Hurry.
- Come on. Hurry up.
Or six?
She seems relaxed. Then
Seven.
Is that your final number?
I'm sorry. Now that I went all-in,
I do want to think a bit more.
Wait.
Well, six?
No. My final number is seven.
Hold on.
Gosh. I'm sorry.
Let me change it one last time.
Come on.
I'll go with six.
It's seven.
- I knew it.
- Why did he change it?
Gosh. He lost all that money.
- He should have gone with it.
- I knew he would get it wrong.
Will you stop playing?
Yes.
I used up all the money I brought.
Good game.
You lost on purpose, right?
You kept changing the numbers.
You're not the type to hesitate.
That's why I kept observing the dealer.
Gosh. When I kept observing her,
it was obvious. It was like a pattern.
When you changed the number in the end,
she seemed so relieved.
Before, she was so anxious.
It was very subtle, but I caught that.
Pretty good.
After spending time with Mr. Woo,
I ended up learning more tricks.
At least, you learned something.
That's great.
You're not the type
to just blow your money.
You wouldn't do something like that
to get on the good side of a pretty dealer.
I can get on her good side
without blowing my money. Right?
You're still bragging
even after that painful defeat.
You have my respect.
Come on. What's this about?
You even brought me here.
Hey, if you know, it won't be fun.
You'll find out along the way.
Anyway, we're on our way to Seoul.
- Turn off the light.
- Okay.
Can I sleep with you on the bed
- Don't cross the line.
- Okay.
(Gangwon District Prosecutors' Office,
Gimsan Branch Office)
What? You're here early today, Mr. Kim.
Yes. I read all the files you emailed me.
And?
Can you look into these cases
one more time?
I narrowed down the list
to the cases where the police
might have missed something.
I see. Okay.
When do you need it by?
Before you go home for the day, of course.
Right. Email me the files once you're done.
One more thing. I'll be working
outside the office again.
That total psycho.
Gosh. He's driving me crazy.
What's good here?
That one is easy.
Flounders are in season right now.
- I'll have that.
- Okay.
My name is Do Hwa Jin.
- Why did you do it?
- What do you mean?
You lost on purpose yesterday.
Gosh. No way.
I would have gotten
40 million won had I won.
What do you want?
Good game.
I need to talk to you.
If you're looking for a partner
to join your scheme, I'm done here.
I guess you can put it that way,
but mine is a bit different.
Are you interested in me?
Gosh. It took a long time to settle on you.
But you keep disappointing me.
Do you think I'm that boring?
Let's not beat around the bush.
Get to the point.
I want information on Yuchae Gang,
which operates the gambling house.
Who are you?
I'm Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo from the
District Prosecutors' Gimsan Branch.
(Kim Hee Woo, Prosecution Service)
(Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo)
Why are you calling me so late?
I'm going to bring down the Yuchae Gang.
What?
Hey, what did you just say?
I'm going to bring down the Yuchae Gang.
Do you have evidence?
I can make evidence now.
Gosh. What's gotten into you?
They are running illegal gambling dens.
That's enough reason to go after them.
I'm requesting backup from the police.
Hey, you punk. Listen up.
I don't know what you're doing.
But it's dangerous. Don't do it.
I'm a prosecutor.
I should resign if that's going
to stop me from doing my job.
Gosh. You're lecturing me about ethics now?
Didn't you see them when we drank together?
They are gangsters,
but they think they are the government.
The police are on their side too.
I bet they even make kimchi together.
They will be asking
for the police to back them up.
Don't do it. You know nothing
about this town.
That's not going to get you anywhere!
I will follow your example
in Seoul.
What? Kim Hee Woo.
I'll report to you later.
Hey, Kim Hee Woo!
Hey!
Gosh. That crazy jerk.
(Gimsan Billiards Club)
Hee Woo. Are you sure
this isn't too dangerous?
Of course, it's dangerous.
But it won't be once I'm there.
Why? Because it's me.
That's sexy.
Would you marry me?
That's annoying.
Would you like me to punch you?
You're handsome.
Stop talking nonsense.
Just make sure you time it right.
Yes, sir.
Here I go.
He's so cool.
(Billiards Club)
(Gimsan Billiards Club)
My goodness. It's nice to see you.
You're back.
Are you going to play the dice game again?
No.
Then
All right. Everyone. I need your attention.
Attention!
I'm from the District Prosecutors'
Gimsan Branch Office.
Everyone in here has violated
Articles 246 and 247 of the penal code.
You're under arrest.
- Be quiet.
- What?
I see. You were a prosecutor.
Then where are your manners?
Prosecutors are supposed to be educated.
Do you have a warrant?
No. I was taught
that I didn't need one
to arrest criminals in the act.
Is that so?
Then I guess you lack field training.
But I am very understanding
when it comes to that.
Okay. Our young prosecutor here
was upset by yesterday's incident.
I understand.
You could have just told me
how you felt. No hard feelings.
I mean, look at this! It's a hassle.
You just inconvenienced everyone.
All right.
It's all right.
- Great.
- Right?
I'll add the bribery charge to your list.
So you're serious about this.
Hey, Mr. Prosecutor.
You're going to regret this.
This is Gimsan.
Do you know why our local shrimps
are so plump and tasty?
Because they feed on human corpses.
Do you want me to throw you into
the shrimp fishery by the ocean?
Gosh. You're threatening
a prosecutor on top of that?
I'll add obstruction of justice too.
You.
You'll end up in the slammer
for a long time.
- Goodness.
- Oh, no.
- You little
- Gosh.
I showed you my respect.
But you don't seem
to accept my sincere respect.
Hyun Jong, give me my tool.
- Goodness!
- What's going on?
- Oh, no.
- Gosh.
Then you must die.
Don't you know that
you'll get a heavier sentence
if you attack me with a knife?
Too bad I never learned that,
you annoying prosecutor.
- You crazy jerk.
- You little
Wait.
My goodness. You have
a lot of manpower here.
It's me.
Right now.
- What's going on?
- What just happened?
- What is this?
- Who did that?
- Who on earth
- Oh, no.
I'm not done yet.
Sang Man!
Everyone, freeze!
Sang Man!
- What's going on?
- What?
- Mister.
- Don't move.
- Who are you?
- Get your hands off me.
- Who are you?
- Come on.
- Sang Man.
- Hee Woo!
Investigator Oh, what's going on?
I'm here as backup.
He was suspiciously hovering
around the circuit breaker.
I can understand that.
I can't do it out in the open.
He's on our side. He's here to help us.
See? Did you hear that?
He is?
Anyway, I'm not done up there.
You two, stay safe.
I'll see you later. Okay?
Okay.
You didn't have to come out to greet me.
Let's get back inside.
Come on.
Gosh. Why are there so many of you
when the business is so small?
Guys. Listen. Do you even have
a lounge where you can rest?
I'm a prosecutor
Well, you probably don't care.
Hey.
We don't have much time. Let's get started.
- Come at me!
- Hey!
Gosh, those jerks. They drained my energy.
All right. So things are
pretty much done here. Right?
Yes. Of course.
Okay. Let's go now.
Okay.
There's an office next to
the chip exchange point.
That's the base for the Yuchae Gang.
It's an office, but not
even dealers can go in.
You'll probably find what you want there.
Look at that. They were all in here.
Investigator Oh.
- Yes, sir.
- We're going to seize
all the files in this office.
Yes, sir. I'll go and bring in the boxes.
Sang Man, hack their computer and
compare the data to the ledgers.
Yes, sir.
But do you think you can hack
Yes, you can.
Right. You even hacked into the server
of the prosecutors' office
to clear his father's name.
Who are you?
(Authorized Personnel Only)
Investigator Oh, are you okay?
Yes. I'm okay.
Gosh.
Darn it.
- Sang Man.
- Yes.
Let's go.
Goodness.
Gosh. It's nice to see you, Lee Hyun Seok.
- Do you know me?
- I came here for you.
Of course, I know you.
Then you must know who I work for.
You bet.
But you should start
working for me from now on.
I know you want to use
your skills for a good cause.
You don't have much time
until I rip your mouth.
This?
Gosh. Why do you have to be so scary?
You're scaring me.
Fine.
I'll beat you.
Then you have to do what I say. Got it?
Sure.
No settlement money even
if I rip your mouth.
I'm in.
Lee Hyun Seok.
At this rate, he'll be
the number one fighter
in a couple of years.
This time around,
I won't let him live that life.
Gosh. That punk.
- Sang Man.
- Yes.
- This guy What?
- Should I kill him?
That's what they do in the movies.
He almost beat me.
What are you talking about?
I need to give him a job.
- Where's he going to work?
- Under you.
What?
We needed some help anyway.
And he can be your bodyguard too.
Gosh. I think I need a bodyguard
to protect me from him.
Gosh.
Hey, he won't bite. Don't worry.
He'll be a good asset.
- Train him well.
- But
Yes, sir.
Hey. Get up.
Kim Hee Woo.
Why did you come down here?
I just wanted to see the ocean.
I'm going to skin him alive myself.
- What did you say, you jerk?
- Hey.
If it's rotten, we ought to carve it out.
- Apologize to him now.
- It was you, right?
We want to investigate
under your supervision.
(Corruption on Personnel Selection
Regarding Cho Tae Sub)
Right?
Kim Hee Woo?
I will instruct the
chief prosecutor myself.
I need power to realize justice.
