ALL CHARACTERS, EVENTS, LOCATIONS
AND INCIDENTS ARE FICTITIOUS
By the way,
how did you know I'd be here?
I looked up and found
that the university has fixed off days.
And I found out you lived in Seoul
during my part-time job.
-Part-time job?
-Yes.
When I was acting like you'd saved me.
Was I any good?
Then you must know who employed you.
I thought it was you?
The agency gives us a job,
and we act as we're told
and get paid. That's all.
-We don't know who requests the jobs.
-(CELL PHONE VIBRATING)
-Excuse me.
-Sure.
(IN KOREAN) You're on a date. I'm so
jealous. So, are you enjoying the dinner?
What do you want?
I saw you talking with Jo Heon.
What did you talk about?
None of your business.
Jiyong, it's me.
I told you, you need me.
Jo Heon is a puppet of those in power.
He's our common enemy.
It's time for us to join forces.
You're with him, aren't you?
I think you are.
You're not telling me
what you talked about.
He knows about me.
What?
Only two people know about me.
You and Jo Heon.
It's suspicious.
Someone other than me knows about you?
Damn it.
We're not meeting today.
And one more thing.
I know you cloned my cell.
Bring me his cloned phone.
Then we'll talk in person.
About you and me working together.
What How did you know
I was peeping into your phone?
You're making it so obvious.
How can I not know?
Okay, fine.
But you're not
thinking of getting out of this
after killing Jo Heon and me, are you?
(CHUCKLES)
(LAUGHS)
Contact me after cloning his phone.

This is too big for Yeon Jaehak

It has to be Sewool's.

in a place like this?

everything that makes money.

It's been a while
since I sent you to catch the Vigilante.
Why is there no news?
I got some leads.
I'll call you when I get him.
After I retire?
You entrusted me with it,
so please continue to do so.
The realignment is around the corner.
Take care of it before that
so it won't hold me back.

Jiyong, let me hold it for you.
Your phone was off two nights ago.
Were you doing something important?
I went to bed early because I was tired.
So with who?
What do you mean? I slept alone.
Just be honest.
(GRUNTING)
SEONWOOK: He's not answering.
JUN: Right.
Are you going
to keep secrets from us like this?

LIVE BROADCAST, REPO25H
I am sure you all heard actor Yeon Jaehak,
who had been arrested
for running an illegal website,
committed suicide.
He died on the day he was supposed
to meet our staff.
These are the texts he sent us.
JAEHAK: Hello, this is actor Yeon Jaehak.
I have evidence
that Sewool Future Resources is
the one who ran the illegal website,
not me.
I'd like to tell you the truth in person.
REPORTER: A person who was going to
commit suicide wouldn't send this.
Let's take a look.
This is where Yeon Jaehak
supposedly ran the illegal website.
As soon as you enter the location,
you can see hundreds of mining machines
and traces of QQ Coin mining.
Also, there is circumstantial evidence
that someone tried to kill our reporter.
In fact, a reporter was murdered,
with his body still missing.
And reporter Choi Miryeo,
who was with him,
narrowly escaped.
There is another case.
You have probably heard of an illegal
cryptocurrency exchange through QQ Coin
that happened recently.
A whopping 800 billion.
Since the transaction,
there is no trace of the culprit.
There is one more thing.
Chairman Kim Samdoo who was recently
released after being found not guilty
MAN 1: Sir, you have a call from the Vole.
To what do I owe the pleasure?
MAN 2: (OVER PHONE) Mr. Kim.
Turn on REPO25h right now.
Turn on the TV. REPO25h.
REPORTER: Here are the texts
we received from Yeon Jaehak.
I'll reveal everything about Eom Jaehyub,
aka the Vole,
who is backing Sewool.
It seems there's one more dog
sniffing around.
Is this how you plan to work?
Eom Jaehyub
EOM JAEHYUB
Yes, this is all circumstantial for now.
However, we are slowly uncovering evidence
to back up this assumption.
Did Yeon Jaehak really commit suicide?
And what are the connections between
Sewool and Eom Jaehyub, the Vole?
We promise to only deliver
the facts and truth
without caving in
to any external pressure and threats.
Shit. You think that's true?
It better not be.
Isn't it too big a case
to be bait for the Vigilante?
Choi Miryeo
-Hello, sir.
-Hello
Kwak Changhyun, are you fucking crazy?
Who said you could air that?
-Pardon?
-The report on REPO25h.
You gave Choi the right
to cover anything
without your permission, so
Hey!
How could you really do that?
Do you know who just called me?
God damn it.
Why did Moon from Dongseon have to
God damn it!
In any case,
you take care of this.
Understood?
But how can I
I mean Choi Miryeo!
Make sure she never does
something like this again.
I made myself clear.
If you can't, just quit!
Damn it.
Son of a bitch.
-Good work.
-Good work.
-Good work.
-CHANGHYUN: Where's Miryeo?
Hey, Choi Miryeo.
Hey, what are you going to do now?
-What do you mean?
-You acted on your own,
aired whatever you liked,
and had Reporter Moon killed!
How could a reporter
Do you even have any feelings of guilt?
How could you do that as a reporter?
Should I stop reporting
just because Daeseok was killed?
-Should I stop the show?
-What did you say?
You receive bribes,
and you're wined and dined
by all kinds of organizations,
companies, and sponsors.
How dare you tell me
what kind of reporter I am!
Am I wrong?
What am I going to do now?
Just wait and see how far I go.
(SIGHS)
Clean up. Now!
Clean this all up. Before I burn it all.
MAN 1: So?
MAN 2: Yes, it's ready.
Make sure to bring the body.
Yes, sir.
(LINE DISCONNECTS)
-Soedol.
-Yes.
Chop more firewood.
It won't be enough.
Yes, sir.
(ENGINE STARTS)
(TIRES SCREECH)
(MIRYEO GRUNTS)
MAN: Get in!
(GRUNTING)
What the heck?
(PANTING)
(TIRES SCREECHING)
Who are you?
Hello.
I'm Jo Heon, team leader of the RIU.
So?
How did you know I'd be attacked here?
Was there a tip?
No.
I came for something else.
Do not give the Vigilante any more prey.
I don't follow you.
Do not make it worse
in order to get scoops.
That's what I mean.
If you don't want to be in danger again.
That sounds strange.
Are you unable to catch the Vigilante?
Or are you choosing not to?
Don't you need
my show to catch the Vigilante?
I don't.
The Vigilante will be caught soon.
So you should stop now.
CONTINUE WITH THE RECENT DESTINATION?
(PANTS)
Why were you lurking around Choi Miryeo?
What are you talking about? You hit me!
Uncuff me, you son of
(GROANS)
Why were you lurking around Choi Miryeo?
What are you talking about?
I was just passing by, you bastard.
Son of a bitch.
Here. Write down
everyone you've met
for the last six months.
Everyone? Even the owner
of my favorite noodles restaurant?
Wait!
(SCREAMING IN PAIN)
Remember now?
I do.
Write them down.
SEWOOL FUTURE RESOURCES
JIYONG: Aided and abetted a murder,
yet was acquitted.
KIM SAMDOO RELEASED "I'M INNOCENT"
Kim Samdoo.
SEWOOL FUTURE RESOURCES
CHAIRMAN KIM SAMDO
Here, sir.
Who's Mr. Bang?
He's the one who told me
to bring Choi Miryeo.
Chairman Kim Samdoo uses
his services often.
I only know his last name.
SOEDOL
And Soedol?
He's Mr. Bang's right-hand man.
He's well-versed in karate, judo
and wushu. Pretty much everything.
I heard he's a huge guy.
The Squeezer?
He's one of Kim Samdoo's guys.
He's a fat bald guy.
He's so freaking strong
that he squeezes people to death.
So he's called the Squeezer.
What ridiculous names.
By the way, where are we going, sir?
The place you went to most recently.
75-9 SAJI-RO, YONGIN-SI
(SIGHS)
If we're going there,
could you bring more people?
SOU, SWAT, or something like that.
Why would you go alone?
Or if you could drop me here,
I'll take a cab.
You don't need me anymore.
I told you everything.
All right. Be careful with them.
Let's hurry up.
Cut this part as well.
Hey. Were more people supposed to come?
No, I don't think so.
Who are you?
We asked who you are, you bastard.
Are you deaf?
I'm with the police!
Please kneel down where you are now.
If you do as I say,
I'll treat you like human beings.
You bastard!
(MEN SCREAMING, GRUNTING)
(MEN GROANING)
(MEN GRUNTING)
I should get out.
Shit. Why can't I get if off? Fuck!
Stay back. You bastard!

-Sir.
-Here.
REPORTER: Good evening. Breaking news.
I'm in front of a temporary building
in Gyeonggi.
It looks like a normal factory,
but it has been revealed
to be a vigilante murder factory.
The vigilante suspects
are now pleading the Fifth
and refusing to talk.
The location is completely cordoned off,
and KCSI is investigating the scene.
They're finally caught.
We have analyzed the weapons
found at the scene,
and discovered the DNA
of the Vigilante's victims.
We have evidence that two of the suspects
have worked for the company
that sponsors vigilante activities.
We also found files that contain
the details of the Vigilante cases
in the computers.
But the Vigilante has never hidden bodies
until now.
Is it really them?
We'll need to investigate further
to be sure,
but it seems the suspects formed
a vigilante organization
and got rid of the victims' bodies
or displayed them
at each member's discretion.
These lame guys are the Vigilante?
Jo Heon.
You're the team leader of the RIU.
How could you do this
without reporting it to me?
You think I gave you the right to do that?
What will the media, politicians
and civic groups say?
Are you sure they're the Vigilante?
I am confident.
That's not what I'm asking
I have the evidence.
How could you let some dog bust our farm?
I'm sorry, sir.
And why is Jo Heon claiming
that we're the Vigilante?
That's what I don't understand either.
Why he helped Choi Miryeo
and framed us.
It can't be the Vole, since he wants
Choi Miryeo dead more than anyone.
And the Vole's the one
who appointed Jo Heon.
(SIGHS) It's complicated.
No, it's actually simple.
There's one more dog now. That's all.
All right?
Yes, sir. I'll take care of them both.
(SIGHS)
-Thank you.
-Of course,
I should join you in doing good
at a time like this.
-Right?
-Thank you.
-Hong, take a picture.
-Yes, sir.
LOVE SHARING IN HAPPINESS VILLAGE WITH
SEWOOL FUTURE RESOURCES AND MITEUM CHURCH
In three, two, one.
That's enough. (CHUCKLES)
The other things are being prepared
as planned.
(LAUGHS)
Be careful what you say.
-What do I do now?
-Oh, right. Come this way.
I can't believe the Vigilante was
a mere crime organization.
What did I tell you? I could just tell.
I knew they were just criminals
from the beginning.
(CLATTERS)
(SIGHS)
Mr. Jo

Post your apology
on the viewer bulletin board.
Our company image is a mess
because of the Vigilante. Such a mess!
Do you really believe
they're the Vigilante?
Is your judgment
really that poor?
I have nothing more to say. Just quit.
-Get out.
-(KNOCK ON DOOR)
I think you should come see this.
REPORTER 1: There has been a murder
at a bookstore in Seoul this evening.`
C, the victim, was a drug offender
with three priors for rape.
What's shocking is the crime scene.
Let's take a look.
REPORTER 2: This is a bookstore in Seoul.
C, a drug offender
with three priors for rape,
was found dead here.
What's shocking is the crime scene.
"Heaven's Net. Forgive me,"
was written on the wall.
It is similar to the case
of Jeong Deokheung's murder
from two months ago.
It has not been a week
since the police arrested
It's the Vigilante.
It's the real Vigilante.
Right?
He's trying to prove
that the police have fabricated it.
"They're not real."
"The real Vigilante is here."
(WHOOPING)
(LAUGHING)
REPORTER 2: The police are trying
to find out if it's by the Vigilante.
-Some claim that the pig farm case was
-(WHOOPING)
fabricated to look
like the Vigilante's doing
That's my brother! You're the best!
You're so cool!
(CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS)
-It's done. Good work.
-Thank you. Good job.
Mr. Kim, why don't you
-and the pastor take a picture?
-Sure.
Sir.
Choi Junsik's been killed
by the Vigilante.
And the ledger is gone.
(SIGHS)
Let's take a photo.
SAMDOO: Let's take it next time.
-SAMDOO: Bring the car around.
-Yes, sir.
Contact the loan sharks and druggies
and tell them
to pause their business
and bring the money over.
Yes, sir.
Kim Jiyong.
(GRUNTS)
(PANTING)
JIYONG: I'm sure you're busy.
What brings you here, sir?
I'm here to give you a last chance.
Stop this.
Stop all this
and follow me.
I'll lead you.
JIYONG: I felt it when I first saw you
You've killed someone before.
And when you didn't arrest me, I realized
that you take care
of cases unofficially on someone's orders.
You and I don't seem very different.
So how and where are you going to lead me?
No matter how great something is,
if it's uncontrollable,
it's nothing more than a lethal weapon.
The world's better off without it.
Kim Jiyong.
If I guide you well,
you could go places.
Sir.
Have you ever been
in the shoes of the weak?
Of those who are bullied and abused?
Do you know
how it feels to not be able to do anything
when crimes ruin
your life?
When the law you believed was just
is endlessly generous to criminals,
but neglects victims
When the law that must be sacred
judges differently depending on the person
and doesn't protect victims
When that happens,
I believe you have the right
to protect yourself.
Now go ahead and say it.
I'm sure you have something to say.
No, keep going.
I'll hear you out.
Then, one more thing.
I'll ask you just one more thing.
Let's say someone who ruined
someone else's life
doesn't repent,
even after a generous verdict,
and commits the same crimes
after they're released.
If you could save lives
of more innocent people
by depriving this one criminal
of their human rights,
is that right
or wrong?
That's your biggest problem.
Your confidence that you can't be wrong.
People like you
become monsters eventually.
Jiyong.
Was it painful?
Or
was it fun?
Today, I will
stop you.
I didn't ask you if I'll become a monster
in the future.
I asked you if I was wrong!
(GRUNTS)
(PANTING)
(GROANING)
(COUGHS)
(GRUNTING)
(GROANS)
(GROANS)
(GRUNTS)
(GASPS)
What do you think is the crime
that society punishes most heavily
across all ages and countries?
Murder? Rape?
Arson?
No, it's
-treason.
-(GASPING)
The one who challenges the existing power
and fails it!
Kim Jiyong,
you are not a violent offender.
You are a traitor!
You're challenging the existing system!
-The law! The law you talked about!
-(GRUNTING)
You're challenging the law.
(JIYONG GRUNTS, GROANS)
(GROANING)
Even if you feel that you're right,
you're challenging the system
with violence.
You need to think it over.
(GRUNTING)
I'll answer to your question.
I agree with you.
But that's how I feel as a human being.
It means nothing to me
as a police officer.
My job gives meaning to my life.
And I'm proud to be a police officer.
But as proud as I am
to be a civil servant,
there are so many
incompetent and lazy police officers,
even corrupt ones.
That's what pains me.
And that's why I feel sorry for you.
The man who abhors crimes
and is ready to fight against crimes!
If you slightly change direction,
you could become
such a great police officer.
(GROANS)
(PANTING)
Traitor Kim Jiyong.
(BREATHING HEAVILY)
Die.
I think that's the only solution.

Who said you could air that?
-Pardon?
-The report on REPO25h.
You gave Choi the right
to cover anything
without your permission, so
Hey!
How could you really do that?
Do you know who just called me?
God damn it.
Why did Moon from Dongseon have to
God damn it!
In any case,
you take care of this.
Understood?
But how can I
I mean Choi Miryeo!
Make sure she never does
something like this again.
I made myself clear.
If you can't, just quit!
Damn it.
Son of a bitch.
-Good work.
-Good work.
-Good work.
-CHANGHYUN: Where's Miryeo?
Hey, Choi Miryeo.
Hey, what are you going to do now?
-What do you mean?
-You acted on your own,
aired whatever you liked,
and had Reporter Moon killed!
How could a reporter
Do you even have any feelings of guilt?
How could you do that as a reporter?
Should I stop reporting
just because Daeseok was killed?
-Should I stop the show?
-What did you say?
You receive bribes,
and you're wined and dined
by all kinds of organizations,
companies, and sponsors.
How dare you tell me
what kind of reporter I am!
Am I wrong?
What am I going to do now?
Just wait and see how far I go.
(SIGHS)
Clean up. Now!
Clean this all up. Before I burn it all.
MAN 1: So?
MAN 2: Yes, it's ready.
Make sure to bring the body.
Yes, sir.
(LINE DISCONNECTS)
-Soedol.
-Yes.
Chop more firewood.
It won't be enough.
Yes, sir.

What the heck?
(PANTING)
(TIRES SCREECHING)
Who are you?
Hello.
I'm Jo Heon, team leader of the RIU.
So?
How did you know I'd be attacked here?
Was there a tip?
No.
I came for something else.
Do not give the Vigilante any more prey.
I don't follow you.
Do not make it worse
in order to get scoops.
That's what I mean.
If you don't want to be in danger again.
That sounds strange.
Are you unable to catch the Vigilante?
Or are you choosing not to?
Don't you need
my show to catch the Vigilante?
I don't.
The Vigilante will be caught soon.
So you should stop now.
CONTINUE WITH THE RECENT DESTINATION?
(PANTS)
Why were you lurking around Choi Miryeo?
What are you talking about? You hit me!
Uncuff me, you son of
(GROANS)
Why were you lurking around Choi Miryeo?
What are you talking about?
I was just passing by, you bastard.
Son of a bitch.
Here. Write down
everyone you've met
for the last six months.
Everyone? Even the owner
of my favorite noodles restaurant?
Wait!
(SCREAMING IN PAIN)
Remember now?
I do.
Write them down.

Here, sir.
Who's Mr. Bang?
He's the one who told me
to bring Choi Miryeo.
Chairman Kim Samdoo uses
his services often.
I only know his last name.
SOEDOL
And Soedol?
He's Mr. Bang's right-hand man.
He's well-versed in karate, judo
and wushu. Pretty much everything.
I heard he's a huge guy.
The Squeezer?
He's one of Kim Samdoo's guys.
He's a fat bald guy.
He's so freaking strong
that he squeezes people to death.
So he's called the Squeezer.
What ridiculous names.
By the way, where are we going, sir?

If we're going there,
could you bring more people?
SOU, SWAT, or something like that.
Why would you go alone?
Or if you could drop me here,
I'll take a cab.
You don't need me anymore.
I told you everything.
All right. Be careful with them.
Let's hurry up.
Cut this part as well.
Hey. Were more people supposed to come?
No, I don't think so.
Who are you?
We asked who you are, you bastard.
Are you deaf?
I'm with the police!
Please kneel down where you are now.
If you do as I say,
I'll treat you like human beings.
You bastard!

-Sir.
-Here.
REPORTER: Good evening. Breaking news.
I'm in front of a temporary building
in Gyeonggi.
It looks like a normal factory,
but it has been revealed
to be a vigilante murder factory.
The vigilante suspects
are now pleading the Fifth
and refusing to talk.
The location is completely cordoned off,
and KCSI is investigating the scene.
They're finally caught.
We have analyzed the weapons
found at the scene,
and discovered the DNA
of the Vigilante's victims.
We have evidence that two of the suspects
have worked for the company
that sponsors vigilante activities.
We also found files that contain
the details of the Vigilante cases
in the computers.
But the Vigilante has never hidden bodies
until now.
Is it really them?
We'll need to investigate further
to be sure,
but it seems the suspects formed
a vigilante organization
and got rid of the victims' bodies
or displayed them
at each member's discretion.
These lame guys are the Vigilante?
Jo Heon.
You're the team leader of the RIU.
How could you do this
without reporting it to me?
You think I gave you the right to do that?
What will the media, politicians
and civic groups say?
Are you sure they're the Vigilante?
I am confident.
That's not what I'm asking
I have the evidence.
How could you let some dog bust our farm?
I'm sorry, sir.
And why is Jo Heon claiming
that we're the Vigilante?
That's what I don't understand either.
Why he helped Choi Miryeo
and framed us.
It can't be the Vole, since he wants
Choi Miryeo dead more than anyone.
And the Vole's the one
who appointed Jo Heon.
(SIGHS) It's complicated.
No, it's actually simple.
There's one more dog now. That's all.
All right?
Yes, sir. I'll take care of them both.
(SIGHS)
-Thank you.
-Of course,
I should join you in doing good
at a time like this.
-Right?
-Thank you.
-Hong, take a picture.
-Yes, sir.
LOVE SHARING IN HAPPINESS VILLAGE WITH
SEWOOL FUTURE RESOURCES AND MITEUM CHURCH
In three, two, one.
That's enough. (CHUCKLES)
The other things are being prepared
as planned.
(LAUGHS)
Be careful what you say.
-What do I do now?
-Oh, right. Come this way.
I can't believe the Vigilante was
a mere crime organization.
What did I tell you? I could just tell.
I knew they were just criminals
from the beginning.

Our company image is a mess
because of the Vigilante. Such a mess!
Do you really believe
they're the Vigilante?
Is your judgment
really that poor?
I have nothing more to say. Just quit.
-Get out.
-(KNOCK ON DOOR)
I think you should come see this.
REPORTER 1: There has been a murder
at a bookstore in Seoul this evening.`
C, the victim, was a drug offender
with three priors for rape.
What's shocking is the crime scene.
Let's take a look.
REPORTER 2: This is a bookstore in Seoul.
C, a drug offender
with three priors for rape,
was found dead here.
What's shocking is the crime scene.
"Heaven's Net. Forgive me,"
was written on the wall.
It is similar to the case
of Jeong Deokheung's murder
from two months ago.
It has not been a week
since the police arrested
It's the Vigilante.
It's the real Vigilante.
Right?
He's trying to prove
that the police have fabricated it.
"They're not real."
"The real Vigilante is here."
(WHOOPING)
(LAUGHING)
REPORTER 2: The police are trying
to find out if it's by the Vigilante.
-Some claim that the pig farm case was
-(WHOOPING)
fabricated to look
like the Vigilante's doing
That's my brother! You're the best!
You're so cool!
(CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS)
-It's done. Good work.
-Thank you. Good job.
Mr. Kim, why don't you
-and the pastor take a picture?
-Sure.
Sir.
Choi Junsik's been killed
by the Vigilante.
And the ledger is gone.
(SIGHS)
Let's take a photo.
SAMDOO: Let's take it next time.
-SAMDOO: Bring the car around.
-Yes, sir.
Contact the loan sharks and druggies
and tell them
to pause their business
and bring the money over.
Yes, sir.
Kim Jiyong.
(GRUNTS)
(PANTING)
JIYONG: I'm sure you're busy.
What brings you here, sir?
I'm here to give you a last chance.
Stop this.
Stop all this
and follow me.
I'll lead you.
JIYONG: I felt it when I first saw you
You've killed someone before.
And when you didn't arrest me, I realized
that you take care
of cases unofficially on someone's orders.
You and I don't seem very different.
So how and where are you going to lead me?
No matter how great something is,
if it's uncontrollable,
it's nothing more than a lethal weapon.
The world's better off without it.
Kim Jiyong.
If I guide you well,
you could go places.
Sir.
Have you ever been
in the shoes of the weak?
Of those who are bullied and abused?
Do you know
how it feels to not be able to do anything
when crimes ruin
your life?
When the law you believed was just
is endlessly generous to criminals,
but neglects victims
When the law that must be sacred
judges differently depending on the person
and doesn't protect victims
When that happens,
I believe you have the right
to protect yourself.
Now go ahead and say it.
I'm sure you have something to say.
No, keep going.
I'll hear you out.
Then, one more thing.
I'll ask you just one more thing.
Let's say someone who ruined
someone else's life
doesn't repent,
even after a generous verdict,
and commits the same crimes
after they're released.
If you could save lives
of more innocent people
by depriving this one criminal
of their human rights,
is that right
or wrong?
That's your biggest problem.
Your confidence that you can't be wrong.
People like you
become monsters eventually.
Jiyong.
Was it painful?
Or
was it fun?
Today, I will
stop you.
I didn't ask you if I'll become a monster
in the future.
I asked you if I was wrong!

What do you think is the crime

Murder? Rape?

No, it's

-(GASPING)
The one who challenges the existing power
and fails it!
Kim Jiyong,
you are not a violent offender.
You are a traitor!
You're challenging the existing system!
-The law! The law you talked about!
-(GRUNTING)
You're challenging the law.
(JIYONG GRUNTS, GROANS)
(GROANING)
Even if you feel that you're right,
you're challenging the system
with violence.
You need to think it over.
(GRUNTING)
I'll answer to your question.
I agree with you.
But that's how I feel as a human being.
It means nothing to me
as a police officer.
My job gives meaning to my life.
And I'm proud to be a police officer.
But as proud as I am
to be a civil servant,
there are so many
incompetent and lazy police officers,
even corrupt ones.
That's what pains me.
And that's why I feel sorry for you.
The man who abhors crimes
and is ready to fight against crimes!
If you slightly change direction,
you could become
such a great police officer.
(GROANS)
(PANTING)
Traitor Kim Jiyong.
(BREATHING HEAVILY)
Die.
I think that's the only solution.
