[car approaching]
[sighs] Grab him.
[grunts]
[breathing heavily]
[sighs]
MAGNESIA POWDER (LIME)
I don't know, man. That's how they do it.
It makes them decompose faster,
or something.
Dump it.
[exhales smoke]
Your first time killing a man?
My first time too.
I only did it 'cause they told me to.
But fuck, it feels like shit.
We used to break bread together,
and here I am now burying him.
Fucking hell.
How is it that there's
no one you can fucking trust?
Hey.
If anyone orders you to bury me,
are you going to tell me?
Let's just tell each other,
even if we have to do it.
We should at least know
why we've got to fucking die. Right?
[sighs]
You're an orphan?
Let's trust each other
for the rest of our lives, all right?
Remember.
This is the first time you can say
that you actually have a family.
[laughs]
[contemplative music playing]
[Yong-soo chuckling]
Take a seat.
What do you mean, take a seat?
Hey, motherfucker. You here
to show us your knife skills?
I fucking dare you to hit me.
You're only alive because
of the Sangseon Ring, idiot.
[Yong-soo inhales deeply]
I thought I'd never see you again.
We did make a promise
to give each other the heads-up.
You should at least know why you're dying.
What the fuck are
you talking about right now?
Hey.
So, you're here to bury me?
[Kwang-chul] One of us is going to die.
This is why you should have
abandoned that punk, and not me.
Then we wouldn't be in this fucking mess.
Let's go, motherfucker.
- [grunts]
- [knife swishes]
[grunting]
[grunting, groaning]
[groaning]
Okay.
So now we know the reason why we're dying,
but we don't know
who it's going to be yet.
I can't exactly die for you, can I?
Hey, I can't choose a dog
over my own family, can I? Huh?
[scoffs]
[laughs]
[guitar music playing]
[door opens]
[car idling]
[lighter opening, clicking]
[car approaching]
[sighs]
What are you just standing there?
You should know to offer to your elders
a glass of water.
The young one seems to be much quicker
than the old one.
How old are you, young woman?
I'm in 9th grade.
Ah, I asked for your age.
How am I supposed to know
if you had to repeat a grade?
- You have any alcohol, little buddy?
- No.
What? There's no alcohol in the house?
So your dad doesn't ever drink?
I knew it.
He did take after his mother, after all.
He was always a bit on the soft side.
[gasps]
And where's your mom?
She hasn't come home yet,
but she should be here soon.
All right. All right, then.
- [sighs] Excuse me, sir.
- Huh?
How are you going to prove
that you actually are our grandfather?
I should prove it now? [laughs]
Why do I have to do
something like that? Huh?
We were told that our grandfather
passed away when our dad was young.
[sighs]
Fine. So how did I die then?
He said you passed away from an illness.
See? That's bullshit.
No one in our family has ever died
from any illness.
Everyone either died in the war
or in an accident.
Even your grandmother got killed
in a car crash.
As long as we're careful,
we live long in this family.
That doesn't actually prove anything.
[exasperated sigh] Jeez, you little
Our glabellas look similar, don't they?
Glabella is the area
between your eyebrows.
And what that means,
is that we're all extremely quick-witted.
Happy?
Happy?
[sighs]
I mean, what kind of house has no alcohol?
[dog barking in distance]
[dog yelps]
[dog sniffing]
[continues sniffing]
[dog digging]
[whimpers, snorts]
Hyun-woo.
Why is there a dog in our yard?
Uh, Mom.
[gasps]
Who are you?
Hello, my dear. Are you their mother?
I said, who are you?
- I am your father-in-law.
- [Eun-ju sighs]
- It's nice to meet you.
- What?
[brakes screeching]
[gasps]
[sighs]
[phone vibrating]
Yes, Hyun-woo.
What?
[laughs]
Finally, son.
You should try to get home earlier.
[sighs] How did you find us here?
How did you know where I lived, huh?
[breathes deeply]
- What do you think you're doing here?
- You're such a punk.
It's been forever since I last saw you.
Why the attitude?
Leave, right now.
Get the hell out of my house, right now.
Hey, listen. Calm down.
You're upsetting the kids. All right?
Come close to me. Sit down.
It's the first time
everyone's in a room together.
A happy family.
What fucking happy family?
Get out!
- Get out! Get out!
- [laughs]
- Out!
- [laughing] Hey
Get out!
[grunts] Out!
- [grunts]
- [panting]
- [Hyun-woo] Dad.
- [Deuk-soo] Jeez, man.
Come on. Bring it on.
- I know you're tenacious. Aren't you? Huh?
- [breathing angrily]
- [Deuk-soo] Let me see it.
- You bastard!
[yells]
- [grunting]
- [Deuk-soo] You punk!
- I'll show you how to fight.
- [both grunting]
[Deuk-soo] You punk!
Cigarette.
[Kang-jun groaning]
Hey.
We need to talk business here,
so just stop whining
and go make us some coffee.
[laughs] I get the sense that
you'll get your ass kicked again.
[laughs]
What did you just say to me? Huh?
[exhaling smoke] Hey, brother.
Go make me some coffee.
Hah.
You really wanna lose one of those eyes.
[Yong-soo] Hey.
[sighs]
[exhales smoke]
[sighs]
[laughs]
[sighs]
[sighs]
No wonder my fortune reading today
was shit.
[scoffs]
God, I look so pathetic.
We should go to the hospital now.
[sighs]
[lighter clicks]
That fucking bastard
is taking advantage
of his Sangseon Ring clout.
Fine.
Pot's getting bigger.
Now things went this way,
we can wipe them all out in one swoop.
The pigs are probably drooling already.
[laughs]
[sighs]
[dog barking in distance]
So, you don't want
to press charges, ma'am?
That's right.
All right, then.
[Deuk-soo inhales deeply]
[exhales]
Hey, Yeon-woo.
We can't involve the cops.
[Deuk-soo] He's right about that.
Our family and law enforcement
do not mix very well.
[grunts]
[sighs]
It was self-defense.
Goodness. What a waste.
[mellow music playing]
When we first met, you told me
your father was dead.
Is your mother still alive too?
- [Dong-ha sighs]
- Why did you hide it from me?
Why do you always do this?
Why do you always make everything worse?
[inhales deeply]
I did it because I didn't need him at all.
[sighs]
He would always come home every few years
and then bad things would happen to us.
He must have taken all of our money.
because Mom started to work double time.
I was always suffering.
I don't know how he knew,
but he always found us, even if we moved.
My mom died in an accident
and he showed up again
to collect the insurance.
So, I cut ties with him.
I was about to marry you
and I was going to have a family soon.
So I thought
it would be better
to have nothing to do with him.
I'll kick him out,
so don't worry about it.
[phone vibrating]
[sighs]
PROFESSOR PARK
Hello?
No, it's nothing.
All right.
- [call disconnects]
- [sighs]
I gave it some thought
and I think I can understand
why you met someone else.
[inhales] I think I can try to understand.
[sighs]
I I should have been there
for you and the kids more.
It was my fault.
But that's all in the past,
so from now on,
I know for a fact
that we can be different.
Why do you
want to get a divorce?
Is it because of him?
[sighs]
No.
He has nothing to do with any of this.
Let me make this clear.
He's not why I want a divorce.
[Dong-ha] Then
what is the real reason for it?
[sighs]
I think I can live without you.
[somber music playing]
You know, that man
He won't be able to do anything for you.
I can protect you, and our family.
[sighs]
Hey, Dad.
Do you think we could keep the doggy?
Wait. What dog?
Hey! Go! Go!
- Ugh! Goodness.
- Go away!
- Go! Get out of here! Shoo!
- [dog whimpering]
[Deuk-soo] Jeez, you scared me.
That dog has been digging there
for some time now.
Maybe he buried a bone or something.
No matter how much you chase him away,
he'll just come back and dig.
Dogs are persistent, you know?
[sighs]
Why are you here?
To see the children.
[inhales deeply]
Please leave.
[breathing shakily]
Is something going on with you these days?
Why does it matter to you?
Just leave.
- Get back to living your life.
- I have no place to go, okay?
I have absolutely nothing in my name.
There's even less for you to mooch here.
Please just leave.
[laughs]
Why would I take anything
from someone who lives
in the country like a peasant?
[Dong-ha] Good, then.
You've always been persistent
when you wanted something.
[laughs]
Oh gosh. [laughs]
[sighs loudly]
I would just really love to
be as immature as you
and call you a son of a bitch, you know?
Go for it then.
Because
that's exactly what I am.
- [exhales sharply]
- [clatters]
Oh, goodness me! [sighs]
[door opens]
[sighs]
- [door closes]
- [whimpering]
[sighs loudly]
PERSONAL DETAILS REPOR
At first I wondered
why these two were moving together.
What their relationship was.
Then suddenly, I thought,
instead of wondering why
the professor moved with Kwang-chul,
I asked myself
how the delivery car ended up here.
SUV
DEOKSONG-RI VILLAGE
At first, I thought
it must have something to do
with the marijuana grower.
KIM JEONG-HWAN
MISSING
But then I realized
it might be because of the professor.
PERSONAL DETAILS REPOR
Who is this professor?
And how much does he know?
[sighs]
I wasn't sure
if this had anything to do with our case.
[sighs]
But what I know for sure
is that the professor's looking
for something.
- Here you go.
- Ah.
- Great. See you later.
- Bye.
Excuse me.
May I ask the reason
for that professor's visit today?
He and his wife went
to the same university as Han-cheol.
But if he already knew Han-cheol,
he wouldn't have been looking him up.
He learned about him recently.
His relationship with Kwang-chul
may not be that simple.
[Yun-seok on phone]
Mis Kang, I found Park Deuk-soo.
PERSONAL DETAILS REPOR
PARK DEUK-SOO
It's time for you to act like an adult.
I don't know.
I'm still pretty immature, honestly.
Well, your family is
in great danger right now.
They got involved with some scary people.
If we just leave them, they could
vanish without a trace just like that.
Your daughter-in-law, your son,
your grandchildren.
Just how scary are these fellas, really?
They're a drug ring.
Your entire family will be destroyed.
So you're going to need to save them.
Well, what do I need to do then? Tell me.
Let's have him look at their phones
for recent calls, texts, photos,
anything that may be related
to the delivery accident.
So the messed-up delivery is somehow
related to the professor's family?
We'll have to wait and see.
PARK YEON-WOO
PARK HYUN-WOO
This family is now a prime suspect
of the delivery accident.
We have nothing on the new guy.
We need to start doing some digging.
Yong-soo and Kwang-chul
may have parted ways.
But they'll all end up where the money is
no matter what.
That money is here right now,
that's why Kwang-chul is waiting around.
And our hunting dog
is working his ass off.
[dog sniffing]
[sighs]
- [rustling]
- [gasps]
[fluttering]
[sighs]
Oh, goodness. [sighs]
[sighs]
[exhaling loudly]
[sighs]
No alcohol in this house.
[sighs]
[gulping]
[sighs]
[clears throat]
[gulps, sighs] Ah.
Why so surprised, my dear?
By the way, are you always this sensitive?
My goodness, man.
[breathes deeply]
[bottle thuds on counter]
[sighs]
[scoffs]
[fire crackling]
[fire blazing]
[foreboding music playing]
[wood crackling]
[debris clatters]
[yells, grunts]
[breathing frantically]
[fire blazing]
[breathing shakily]
[breathing heavily]
- [panting, grunting]
- [man] Stop right there!
[grunting]
[phone ringing]
KANG EUN-JU
What exactly have you done for us?
How dare you say you're doing this for us?
Can you really tell me
you've done this for our family?
Do I not
not count as family to you?
You don't. Not anymore.
[sentimental music playing]
[music swells]
[music slows down]
[sighs]
[sighs]
[slurping]
Doesn't anyone wait for their elders
before digging in?
I called you earlier.
But I think you were washing up
and you couldn't hear me.
At least,
the youngest is making an effort.
It seems there's
some hope left for this family.
Your grandfather's leaving today.
You're leaving today?
Well, apparently so.
Our family's just way too weird.
I'm going to school.
- Eun-ju.
- [door closes]
Can you take Hyun-woo to school today?
- [door closes]
- [door lock beeps]
Let's go.
- [Hyun-woo] See you later.
- Bye.
Bye.
[door opens]
- [door closes]
- [door lock beeps]
[Dong-ha] Don't ever come back.
Give me one more week.
I just need to find a place to stay.
After that, I swear, I'm out of here.
This is my last chance
to see my grandkids before I die.
Is that too much to ask of you, son?
[breathes deeply]
It should seem like you're not here.
You can't just pretend
like you're part of this family.
[sighs]
See you later.
I'll make sure to look after the house.
[tense music playing]
[phone vibrating]
[Messenger] Busan.
Tomorrow night. Bring the money.
- Jung-bae.
- Yes.
[Kwang-chul] Let's move the money.
We cannot afford another accident,
but there's no choice.
Yong-soo called Mr. Kim for a reason.
- Be ready.
- Understood.
I know. I won't decompose when I die.
Eat what you want. I'll have you cremated.
- Have mine too.
- [Yun-seok] What
- [Joo-hyun] Can't look at it.
- [Yun-seok] Jeez.
[sighs]
[slurping]
Hey. [clears throat]
Were you close with the undercover agent?
- Why?
- [lighter clicks]
I don't know.
Just because you seem to like him.
[exhales smoke]
If you weren't going to eat that,
you shouldn't have poured the water.
Just the smell
makes me want to puke. [sighs]
YOO HAN-CHEOL - HANKUK UNIVERSITY
UNDERCOVER - MISSING
STAG BEETLES AND RHINOCEROS BEETLES
"Stag beetles"
Weird kid.
[rock music playing]
Whew!
[sighs]
[rock music continues]
[Deuk-soo sighs]
[grunting]
[exhales loudly]
[exhales]
Hmm.
[grunts]
ENTER PASSCODE
[exhales] Damn it.
[door opens]
- What are you doing in here?
- Yup. This here might be a problem.
Do you see the water up there?
In the ceiling corner
Yeah, right over there.
[sighs]
You can't really
see anything there, can you?
Well, it may look fine now,
but it will be a problem.
- You have a leak.
- [sighs]
"A leak"?
And you know,
the kids' rooms had the same problem.
If you don't do anything now,
it'll cost you down the road.
You can't just leave it like that.
Did Hyun-woo get to school safely?
[Byeong-gu]
What's wrong with you this time?
[sighs]
- I lost my appetite.
- [Dong-ha] Byeong-gu.
Do you know who Yoo Han-cheol is
by any chance?
Who? "Yoo Han-cheol"?
Should I know him?
I heard he used to go out
with Eun-ju back in college.
Come on, man. Do you know
how many guys have tried to hit on her?
You may have been the very last one,
but you were not the only one.
I'm not even the last one.
What?
- Is she cheating on you?
- [Dong-ha] No.
It's nothing.
Do you know him or not?
[sighs]
Just eat.
[slurping]
[phone vibrates]
[Kwang-chul] There's something important
coming up tomorrow. Clear your schedule.
[sighs]
[exhales smoke]
[spits]
[door slams]
[clears throat]
They're making the professor
move the money soon.
We should get ready as well.
He's only reporting to me now.
So you know.
After almost dying,
I realized I need insurance. [laughs]
[scoffs]
[knocking on door]
Yeah? Do you need something?
Yes. If you don't mind.
My phone is acting weird. I don't think
I've taken really good care of it.
I can't get it to turn on.
Can I borrow your phone to make a call?
Sure, go ahead.
Would it be okay if you could
just give me your passcode? You know, to
Thank you so much.
I'll just go make the call in my room.
It's kind of important.
I need a little privacy.
Goodness! Sun-ok! [chuckles]
This is Park Deuk-soo!
Yes!
- [forced laughter]
- [man on phone] What?
- What the hell are you talking about?
- Oh!
- Oh, no, no, I'm not busy.
- What are you doing?
- Is this another one of your scams?
- I'm a little busy, actually.
- [man] Why would you be busy
- [Deuk-soo] Of course!
[man] That's enough. Let's have some soju.
[Deuk-soo] Oh, yes, we should.
- [forced laughter]
- [man] Did you already start drinking?
I don't have time
to drinks with you, you idiot.
- [man] What is going on?
- I don't know. Just shut the fuck up.
But stay here, don't hang up.
Just stay on the line with me, will ya?
- [man] Why?
- [Deuk-soo] I'll fill you in later.
YOO HAN-CHEOL
- [man] Wait. What? What are you
- [laughing] My goodness, Sun-ok.
You've gotten even funnier.
[forced laughter]
[man] Son of a bitch.
Did you find yourself another rich lady?
You are such a crook.
If this goes well,
you better be buying me drinks all night.
I'm serious.
Last time you skipped out on the bill.
Yes, it was nice talking to you.
Yes. Take care now.
Bye.
Thanks for letting me use it.
[screen locks]
You should eat something.
That's okay. I'm good.
I'm not very hungry right now. [exhales]
PERSONAL DETAILS REPOR
PARK DONG-HA - KANG EUN-JU
[exhales smoke]
So who are these people?
We think they were involved
in the delivery accident.
We're still investigating.
What are you talking about?
They're just normal people.
I think we should be able
to get a lead soon.
I'll submit another report then.
Okay. What lead are you talking about?
Well, you can't keep it a secret
from us too.
Hey!
Aren't we supposed to be on the same team?
Did you have something
you want to tell us?
Joo-hyun.
Fine!
Okay. That's enough.
Just call everything off.
Send everyone back to their units.
We have a mole,
someone who's connected to the drug ring.
[Chief] What?
We weren't the only ones
with a double agent.
The Sangseon Ring member
we're looking for could be a cop.
Is this true?
Yes, it is.
That's why our agent was killed.
And it's what also messed up
the delivery the other day.
Okay. So what kind
of progress have you made so far?
We're just getting started.
But things will come to light soon.
[Chief sighs]
[sighs]
[lighter clicks]
[exhales smoke]
Your family got tangled up
with a drug ring.
Go in the house and do a little digging.
Anything helps.
We really need to know what's going on
so that we can help them.
Jeez. That freaking dog.
Hey! Scram!
- Shoo!
- [whimpers]
[panting]
[foreboding music playing]
[gasps]
["Wellerman" playing]
[phone vibrating]
[Dong-ha] Hello?
[Deuk-soo on phone] Dong-ha,
you little punk. Where are you right now?
- What?
- [Deuk-soo] This [breathing heavily]
What is this in your backyard?
Is it a dead body?
Did you kill someone?
Answer me.
Is that what's going on?
Dong-ha, you punk.
Where are you right now?
