(November 2, 2015, 11pm)
You drank.
You shouldn't be driving.
The cops don't catch drunk drivers when it rains.
Don't worry.
Drop me off somewhere here.
Here?
I'll just call a taxi.
We'll be downtown soon.
I'll drop you off there.
Please, Mr. Oh.
Why?
You don't even want to spend another second with me?
No, it's not that.
What's the reason?
What did I do wrong?
I have a boyfriend.
I don't want to do anything that he might misunderstand.
Why do I have to care about that low born jerk? Why?
Please let me go.
Go.
You can just go. I'll call a taxi.
What will you do if I don't let you go?
Mr. Oh, please
Come here. You'll get soaked in the rain.
You see,
I've never let anyone take the things that I liked.
(Episode 9)
What would you like to do with this portrait?
Should we throw it out?
Store it in the warehouse.
There will come a time when I'll want to see it again.
(Lee Dae Chul September 12, 1980 to March 2, 2020)
Let's get going.
A few more minutes.
Give me a few more minutes.
I'll wait outside, then.
(Yoo Jeong Seon)
We don't have a lot of time.
Secure footage from all the cameras in the vicinity.
But don't rely on the security footage.
Interview all the witnesses.
That always forms the basis of any investigation. Understand?
- Understood, sir. - Yes, sir!
All right. Let's go catch the culprit!
Okay.
(Trustworthy Police Officers, Happy Citizens)
Let's go.
You're back.
Are we not getting a case, even today?
If you're that bored, go out there and snag a case.
What's the use? Even if we snag a case,
they'll reassign it to another team.
Why on earth are they doing this to us?
Hey, are you asking because you actually don't know the answer?
They want to give us an F on our performance review.
We can't work if we're not getting any cases to work on.
If we can't work, we'll naturally get an F.
But what did we do wrong?
Is it because of Do Chang?
Well, what did he do wrong?
Hey!
3, 2, 1.
Okay, it's time.
Let's go home.
My wife loves it that I come home on time.
Lucky you.
We don't have wives waiting for us
even if we go home early.
It comes with side effects.
I found out about a secret
she's been hiding from me all this time.
She has a mole this big on her bottom.
I didn't know for the 16 years we were married.
- Come on. - Nice to know
As I told you,
my father was the one who laid
Can you still not let go of it?
It's over now.
You can go home first.
I have a lot of work left.
I'll give up on all the projects
If you find evidence that I broke the law,
I shall willingly be punished for it.
- What? - Wait.
- Tell us more about it. - Are you taking questions?
- This is unacceptable! - Are you saying you're innocent?
(Confirmation Hearing for Yoo Jeong Ryeol)
How do you like your new office?
Yes.
All the buildings in that area
are run by people appointed by our company.
So you can always move if you don't like it.
And don't worry about the rent.
Thank you.
The cops at Seobu Police Station don't mess with you anymore, right?
Not at the moment.
They'll leave you alone.
They must have learned something from the trial.
No matter how hard they try,
they're in the palm of my hand.
You know a detective named Oh Ji Hyuk, right?
- Yes. - He worries me.
Don't worry about him. He's a nobody.
I looked him up and he doesn't give up easily.
There's a possibility he'll keep digging.
Leave him alone.
I'll keep an eye on him.
If you're that worried,
kill him.
Why? Because he's a detective?
Wouldn't that add to the excitement?
Detectives
are risky.
It must be if the professional says so.
Then let's keep an eye on him for now. You can go.
I'm not a professional killer.
No one kills people easily.
You know
how hard it is to kill someone.
You should be careful so that
nothing leads Detective Oh Ji Hyuk to you.
You can at least say "hello".
Hello, Superintendent Moon.
You were disqualified for the promotion.
It wasn't my fault. You asked for it.
Who would like someone
that makes such testimony in court?
Good evening, Sir.
Keep your head low
if you want to keep your job.
(Violent Crimes Unit 2, Kang Do Chang)
(Yoon Sang Mi)
Should we lower the heat? It looks ready.
I used to hate the smell of tripe,
but it's weird.
You forced me to have it so many times
that I came to like it.
It's the opposite for me.
I came to hate the smell of tripe.
The Civil Petition Division was told
to deal with you however we think is fit.
- And? - If anyone asks me
who I think is the perfect example of a detective in Korea,
I'd say it's you.
The prosecution thinks you made a false testimony.
I think I can put a stop to it.
They have their faults too.
What do you want from me?
Giving me the carrot and stick, are you trying to play me?
I told you.
I have the power to do whatever I please with you.
Let me remain as a detective.
I still have
work left to do.
I know.
That's why I'm asking what you're going to do.
From now on,
I'll turn a blind eye.
I'll cover my ears and pretend I didn't hear anything.
If you want me to keep quiet,
I'll shut up as well.
So please don't take my status as a detective.
Is that enough of an answer for you, Lieutenant Yoon?
I'm glad that's how you feel.
I'll tell my boss you said so.
I'll get going,
since I heard the answer I was hoping for.
Thank you. Good night.
Welcome.
This is so heavy.
- This is your bag, right? - Yes.
Hong Doo asked me to bring this to you.
He also asked for you not to say "hi" if you see him on the street.
Tell him I got it.
Can I have a pack of cigarettes?
I need some ID first.
Are you pretending to be a good girl?
You're still crap even if you act like that.
What did you draw?
Let me see.
No way.
I'm only going to show it to Ms. Yoon.
Come on, don't be like that.
Please let me see it.
It's my wish.
Then you can see this one.
It's me.
Gosh, even someone as ignorant as I can tell when I see it.
How is this the drawing of a middle school student?
Give it back if you're done looking at it.
What? All right, here.
Eun Hye, if you become a really famous artist,
say you don't have a father.
You'll be embarrassed to say
you have a father like me.
I won't be disappointed, so do as I say.
Let's go to eat something.
Is anyone here?
Please give me a minute.
Are you still up?
You used to sleep as soon as your head hit the pillow.
What's with you nowadays?
Get me some soju if you have any left.
You can't drink at this hour.
Aren't you going to work tomorrow?
Then forget about it.
Go in and get some sleep. Okay?
It's 4am.
You go ahead and sleep. Stop bothering me.
What's with you?
It's because my life is so messed up.
It's so messed up.
I can't sleep.
Darn it.
I'll bring some soju.
Let's drink together.
Forget it.
If I drink with you,
I think my life will feel even more pathetic.
What do you want me to do then?
Just go back to sleep. Don't mind me.
As if you're carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders
Why are you being like this?
Are you in agony?
Agony is for the intelligent.
It doesn't even suit you to be so lost in thought.
(Court of Korea)
Here he comes.
You were acquitted at the first trial. How do you feel?
The prosecution is planning to appeal.
How are you going to prepare for the second trial?
You've been cleared of only some of your charges.
Do you admit to the other charges?
- Did you expect your acquittal? - Your charges
- Please let me pass. - Say something!
- How do you feel? - Do you admit to the other charges?
- Please answer my question! - Please say something!
- Did you expect this result? - What do you think of the result?
- The second trial - How do you feel?
- Please say something! - Do you agree with the decision?
- Say something! - Please answer my question!
(Minister of Justice Yoo Jeong Ryeol)
(Ministry of Justice)
The result is out. He's been acquitted.
I talked to the prosecutor in charge.
They expected the result and are preparing for the second trial.
Gi Tae will behave. He's been warned.
I hope he will.
This is Lee Dae Chul's retrial record.
It's highly likely that Oh Jong Tae is the real culprit.
Now I see
why he came at us.
The retrial is already over.
The execution has been carried out too.
Nothing can possibly go wrong.
Did you
help Oh Jong Tae?
It's just that the hearing was held right at that time.
Also, I have no reason to help him.
I see. If it really was a coincidence,
I guess he's extremely lucky.
Let's go. We'll be late.
Okay.
By the way,
did Oh Jong Tae kill that detective too?
I didn't think
he'd do such a foolish thing.
Well, he probably thought
a mere detective's death would be easy to cover up.
Keep a distance from him from now on.
It's best if we don't get involved with him.
Okay.
Reporter Jin, you worked so hard on this case.
I'm sorry it didn't pay off.
But don't be disappointed.
There are still the second and third trials left.
Considering the counsel's competence
I don't think the result will change.
A trial doesn't take place in court.
It all comes down to
who plans what.
Lee Dae Chul's trial was the same.
By the way, why wasn't the recording
mentioned at the trial?
If it'd been accepted as evidence,
I'm sure it would've helped.
It would've been seen as an attack on the prosecution and the police
and worked against them.
Did Mr. Yoo Jeong Seok
hear the recording, by any chance?
He did? I see.
"If you reveal this, your career as a reporter will end."
Is that how he convinced you?
This has nothing to do with him. It was my own decision.
Reporter Jin Seo Gyeong.
You were not interested in saving Lee Dae Chul, were you?
But I understand.
Ruining your own life while trying to save someone else
is a foolish thing to do indeed.
Green light. Red light.
Green light. Red light.
Green light. Red light.
Green light. Red light.
Green light. Red light.
Green light. Red light.
You're caught!
Oh, no.
They have pretty nice facilities here,
but the sauna could be better, don't you think?
Do they turn off the heat halfway or something?
It's never hot enough.
My brother is having a hard time lately.
He can't even sleep at night.
And?
I've been pretty much out of my mind lately
because of my kid,
and now with my brother losing his mind too
The place is a mess.
Can you come and clean it?
No rent and free food.
Why would I?
When things are rough,
it helps to have people around.
You're going through a hard time too, aren't you?
I'm fine.
I went to see my kid today.
The jerk got a restraining order against me,
so I could only watch my kid from a distance.
No matter what the darn law says,
I wanted to run to him and hug him.
But if I do that, my boy,
Jae Woong, might end up missing me even more.
All parents are like that.
I'm too busy dealing with my own problems
to think about my child's suffering.
But what tortures me the most is
when Jae Woong is going through a hard time
and has
no one
he can talk to about his suffering.
I'll listen to you.
It might comfort me too.
Reporter Jin Seo Gyeong.
You were not interested in saving Lee Dae Chul, were you?
But I understand.
Ruining your own life while trying to save someone else
is a foolish thing to do indeed.
Jae Hong, you should quit drinking and work out.
He may run fast, but he's incredibly weak. Hey.
Were you lying when you said you taught taekwondo in the military?
Of course.
How can you be so slow?
You should've let him hit you a few times.
- Okay. - You're so slow.
What are you talking about?
Do it properly.
If you go easy on me, I'll kill you.
- Stop. - Gosh.
- My goodness. - Are you okay?
- I'm fine. - No, you're not fine.
You're bleeding.
Hey, why did you have to beat him up like that?
What if his nose is broken?
Gosh.
I didn't mean to kick hard.
Why couldn't you dodge it?
Let's go again.
What are you talking about?
I can't believe you guys.
You never bleed while at work.
We don't have any work.
We couldn't bleed even if we wanted to.
We have nothing to do. That's why we're doing this.
Do you all have time later?
It's something important.
Free up some time.
Let me check your teeth.
One more round.
A nosebleed means you lost.
- You fool. - What's up?
I'm busy today.
Can we grab a drink another time?
What about the other guys?
Oh, really?
Okay, I understand.
Hey, Ji Hyuk.
Are you free now? Do you want to go grab a drink with me?
I've got plans.
Okay, I understand.
Hello?
Yes, what's up?
All right, I'll meet you there. Okay.
Hey, you said you had plans.
I bet you didn't actually have any plans until just now.
The person who called me just now is a woman.
I'm off.
Okay, fine. You've got plans with a lady.
I'll do the same thing.
Let's see, a lady
Goodness.
Women make up half of the world's population,
so how come there's none here?
No ladies here.
- Two of the same one, please. - Sure.
I'm jealous that some people can pass out after just one drink.
Why is it that I never get drunk no matter how much I drink?
I wonder too.
So what's going on? Why did you blow the whistle?
Why
Why do you think Detective Kang said such a thing,
fully knowing that he'd have to make a sacrifice?
Why did he do that?
He was trying to save Lee Dae Chul at all costs.
What a show-off. He thinks he's the only hero.
He's not the only one who tried to save him.
Park Gun Ho, who's dead now, also tried to save him.
Give this a listen. See what they're talking about.
Prosecutor Jeong. I need your help.
I need you to make a call to a person
at the Civil Petition Division.
I don't have the power to do so.
Don't you remember Lee Dae Chul's case from five years ago?
I would have let Lee Dae Chul free if it wasn't for your order.
- Yes! - There he is!
- Congratulations - Congratulations
- Congratulations - Congratulations
- Congratulations - Congratulations
- Congratulations, Do Chang! - Congratulations!
What? It's not even my birthday. What's all this for?
This is for We're here to congratulate you
on the 4,000th No, 6,400th
- 6,428. - That's right, 6,428.
Today is the 6,428th day since you got your police badge!
What on earth are you guys talking about?
- Blow out the candles! - Blow out the candles!
- Blow out the candles! - Blow out the candles!
Okay, I'll blow them out.
Congratulations.
You've worked so hard for the past 6,428 days.
- Hey, did you - Don't rack your brain. Just drink.
- We only have soju. - Oh, okay.
If you'd like something else, you can pick it up
from the convenience store.
- Okay. - Sounds good.
6,428? My goodness, how detailed.
- Anyway, thanks. My gosh. - Let's sit down.
- Oh, boy. - How did you even think of this?
When did you get this audio file?
Chief Prosecutor Kim Gi Tae gave it to me before the last trial.
- But why - It was my mistake.
If this had been disclosed,
Lee Dae Chul could've lived, right?
Don't look at me like that.
I'm angry enough at myself.
He was executed because of this.
Lee Dae Chul had to die
for the prosecution and the police to forever bury the fact
that they manipulated the case together.
We did all that work for nothing.
Lee Dae Chul's execution
was going to be carried out no matter what.
But if I had
Do you know what kind of mistake reporters most commonly make?
They think they can change everything in one blow.
A reporter is never the main character in the story.
You're being sarcastic, right?
Because a mere reporter is feeling guilty.
After all, facts are reporters' weapons. Am I wrong?
You can't accomplish much with this one recording.
Who did this? And what for?
Also, why did the chief prosecutor give this to you before the retrial?
You should look into that.
What's the point of feeling guilty? Don't let such useless emotions
waste your time.
You're being brutally honest, not sarcastic.
Send me this file.
It'll help us out a lot in the investigation.
And if you obtain more information about this recording,
please call me right away.
I've got important plans, so I should get going.
Don't drink too much.
- Excuse me. - Yes.
I'll save this one for another time.
Could you open a 24-year-old one for me?
That obnoxious guy over there will pay for everything.
Sure.
It seems like Ji Hyuk
is determined to keep investigating Oh Jong Tae,
but there won't be another retrial.
Even if there's evidence that he's the culprit, we can't catch him.
You know that.
Eun Hee! Where's soju? Eun Hee!
Gosh, she must be tired. Leave her alone.
- We can get it ourselves. - Go bring some more.
- Oh, come on in. - Have a seat.
Hey, you said you had plans with some lady.
I ended it early to join you guys.
You ended it early? What?
What are you talking about?
Gosh, I guess you're seeing someone. I'm jealous.
Look at that face. It'd be weird if he were single.
Then what about me?
Look at my face. Why am I single?
Hey.
Do you care about women's looks?
Well, doesn't everyone care about looks?
That's why you can't date anyone.
Try putting yourself in the woman's shoes.
Let's say she looks like you.
Then would you date her or not?
Gosh, I totally get it now.
Of course, he wouldn't.
Gosh, I actually pictured that in my head.
Me too.
Goodness.
Do Chang, does Eun Hee have a boyfriend?
- Why do you ask? - She's my type.
Goodness.
- Come on. - She's divorced,
and she's older than you.
So what? Who cares?
Hey, she's a judo gold medallist.
If you act up, she'll knock you down right away.
Eun Hee reminds me of my mom.
My mom used to punch me whenever she lost her temper.
She's very similar to my mom.
What?
Oh, dear. I should get going.
My wife is texting me.
What time is it? You're leaving already?
Gosh, just let him go. They're back in the honeymoon phase.
The passion has been reignited.
Sorry, guys. Oh, you don't need to get up.
Just don't be late for work, okay?
If you come to work on time,
you can go to the sauna or nap. I don't care what you do.
- Okay? - Yes, sir. Get home safely.
- Good night. - Get home safely.
Well, about Jo Seong Dae
You arrested him in the past, right?
Yes. Why are you asking about him out of the blue?
I must catch that scumbag no matter what.
What was he arrested for?
For murdering Park Gun Ho.
That's great.
But he has nothing to do with Lee Dae Chul's case, right?
That's correct.
If we catch Jo Seong Dae,
we'll also be able to catch Oh Jong Tae, who's behind him.
Hey, what's up?
But didn't Unit One conclude Park Gun Ho's case as suicide?
- Right. - Why does that matter?
I'll catch that scumbag and slay them all.
- Gosh. - What?
Han Dae Seong?
He's a conscripted policeman at our precinct. Why do you ask?
(Police)
(Police)
I'll go in and find out what's going on.
You wait here.
All right.
Isn't Han Dae Seong the one Superintendent Moon favours?
Wouldn't Superintendent Moon solve the situation
if he always fetches cigarettes for him?
Are you serious?
He'll create a fuss and have the guy locked up.
Gosh, my face hurts.
- My goodness. - Are you busy?
- Can I have a word with you? - Of course.
You didn't tell the victims
that Han Dae Seong is a conscripted policeman, right?
- No. - Good job.
What happened?
He must've gotten into a fight while getting a drink by himself.
Han Dae Seong is a nice guy who is preparing for the police exam.
Is there any way we can make this go away?
He didn't get a single scratch on his face
and beat the other guys up.
It's hard to say both parties are to blame.
It's a complicated situation.
Who are the guys that got beat up?
They don't have anything major on their records.
It's just a few minor things and dismissed with warnings.
They're just neighbourhood bullies.
We could just threaten them to keep quiet.
Give me all the cash you have.
Seriously?
We can't settle with this. You have two dollars?
You have nothing?
Why is it so wrinkled?
Go and withdraw some cash.
- Cash? - I don't have any money,
so take out as much as you can as a cash advance.
(Police)
- That's cool. - What?
Don't you all have this much in your wallets?
Let's see.
Take this.
Are you kidding me?
It's not enough?
Of course not.
This is practically nothing.
(Kang Do Chang, National Police Agency)
Give me a break.
This is all I have.
Good evening.
Don't be too surprised.
We're just his co-workers.
Looking at your faces,
I have an idea we'll often meet at our office.
We'll be nice to you.
Come visit anytime.
Did you hear what Detective Kwon said?
He's going to do everything it takes to catch Jo Seong Dae.
No one was charged for Park Gun Ho's murder.
If we dig into it,
we can catch Jo Seong Dae and Oh Jong Tae.
Do you think
Superintendent Moon will reopen a case Nam Guk Hyun closed?
Then we'll have to bring down Superintendent Moon first.
Excuse me. He's the superintendent.
We won't be able to get any dirt on him.
Yes, we can.
I'll tell you more about it tomorrow.
Where do you get that baseless confidence?
From you, my partner.
You'll put it all on me if it goes wrong
and run away, right?
Now you know me.
No wonder it's so hard to love you.
- Wait a second. Stop the car. - Why?
Eun Hye.
What brings you here?
Oh.
I'm going home.
Home?
Yes.
Move out of the way.
Don't flush toilet paper down the toilet.
The water pressure is low and it gets clogged.
Also, don't forget to fold the blankets
and put them in the closet in the morning.
Stop nagging at her and leave.
Come on.
It must have been
quite a struggle for you, hasn't it?
A lot of it is my fault.
- I'm sorry. - Don't be.
My dad and I are grateful to you.
I can't
tell you to forget everything,
but let's try.
I'm going to forget everything.
That's what Dad wants.
However,
I'm so mad.
The man
The man that killed Ms. Yoon Ji Sun.
He must be well and alive somewhere.
He should be punished for what he did.
My dad died in his place.
You'll catch him, right?
Of course, I will.
We should teach him a lesson.
That's my job.
Promise me.
In any case
I seem to get weak,
make sure to tell me to keep this promise.
Got it?
Seal.
Copy.
(Seobu Police Station)
Hey.
What did Superintendent Moon say?
I was wrong.
- There's nothing I can do. - Why that
What's this?
Are you in the wrong office?
Han Dae Seong did nothing wrong. Don't punish him.
He told me everything.
You always get him to drive late at night when you're drunk.
You even had him tutor your kid.
He waited for over three hours at the airport
to pick your mother-in-law up from a trip.
He got upset over it, got drunk
and made a mistake.
Who do you think is to blame, Superintendent Moon?
All right, fine.
I'll leave him alone.
However,
how do you think you'll be okay after talking to me like this?
Would I act like this if you did your job?
Fine.
I'll speak as a superintendent.
You'll never be back on the violent crimes unit.
I'll make sure you clean after those brought in for misdemeanor
until the day you retire.
Do you think
I'd find that unbearable and quit?
I won't. There's something I have to see.
I'll watch you tear your hair out in regret.
This is done.
- Do you have a copy of this? - Check this.
Yes, Mr. Choi.
He was executed because of this.
Lee Dae Chul had to die
for the prosecution and the police to forever bury the fact
that they manipulated the case together.
Yes, right now.
(Former Chief Prosecutor Kim Gi Tae)
Hello, Reporter Jin.
Hello. I have a question.
- What is it? - Who gave you the audio file
and when?
It was such a long time ago.
Lee Dae Chul was executed because of that, right?
Oh, now I remember.
I believe I got it from the Ministry of Justice.
Then it must be when Lee Gyu Jo was Minister of Justice.
I'm in the middle of an important meeting.
I can't talk too long.
All right. I'll call you back later.
I got it,
so watch what you say.
Okay. After today,
I will forget everything that happened at the time between us.
(Violent Crimes Unit 2)
How will we bring
Superintendent Moon down to our satisfaction?
We need to build our case.
If we reveal this,
Superintendent Moon and Prosecutor Jeong will be over.
This must have been recorded by the person
at the Civil Petition Division who was going after his corruption.
The police digging out a prosecutor's corruption
while digging into their own?
If this gets big,
the relationship between the prosecution and the police
will worsen even further.
In the end, they'll realize
it's hurting them both and come to an agreement.
Everyone involved in this will be dismissed,
and that will be it.
Superintendent Moon, Prosecutor Jeong,
and you and me.
I don't care if we all go down together.
Do you think
we can get Oh Jong Tae without being cops?
Where did you get this file anyway?
If it'd been revealed at the trial, it would've helped us.
It's too late now.
Let's find out more about Superintendent Moon's corruption
mentioned in the file first.
That's our first priority.
That's easy once I decide to do it.
After work, in person?
Yes, usually.
- In person? - Yes.
Then after work
(Investigative Room 1)
Thanks. That helped a lot.
No problem.
Detective Kang.
What? Is there anything else you want to say?
Once this is revealed,
Superintendent Moon will have to leave the police, right?
He's been mean to me sometimes,
but when my mom was in the hospital,
he came to the hospital in person and comforted me, so
Hey, he should still pay for what he did.
I'm preparing for the police exam because I want to be a cop,
and Superintendent Moon is a cop too.
Become a cop by all means.
You'll be a good cop.
Thank you, sir.
Thank you.
Hello, Superintendent Moon.
I thought you'd at least become the Superintendent General.
Why did you
Never mind. It's too late anyway.
Greed always gets you in trouble.
And if you do a bad thing over and over, you'll get caught.
Are you saying that to me?
Of course not.
I was talking to myself. Never mind.
What
What's with him?
Is he trying to find something on me?
I heard
the Division Chief is not giving Unit Two any cases.
No, not really.
But you guys didn't do anything wrong. How can he be so petty?
I'll tell Division Chief Kim to stop it.
We're short-handed.
We can't let these experienced cops sit around and kill time.
Do you guys ever go for a drink with Kang Do Chang or something?
I know you guys are close.
Why didn't you put it on vibrate?
I apologize.
Take it. It's okay.
- Keep it short. - Yes, sir.
What's the matter?
Hey, think about it.
Do you expect me to tell you about the precinct I work at?
You've changed since you transferred to the headquarters.
Is Superintendent Moon listening?
Forget it. I'm in a meeting. Hang up.
Hang up, seriously.
I know he's only pretending, but it still hurt my feelings.
Who at the headquarters was that?
It was a friend of mine at the Civil Petition Division.
What was it about?
He was informed
that someone at our precinct took bribes and was asking me about it.
What?
- So what happened? - He didn't tell me the details.
But it seems like it's someone higher up.
- Gosh. - Darn it.
Goodness, Superintendent Moon,
you should summon all executives and warn them.
Hello, I'm Reporter Jin Seo Gyeong from Jeonghan Daily.
I'm busy right now.
I'll keep it short.
Why did you approve the executions before your resignation?
Later. Let's talk another time, okay?
Is it true that it was to help Minister Yoo's political position?
- Which company are you with again? - Jeonghan Daily.
Do you have your boss's permission to do this?
Not really.
Minister.
Minister.
You look nice.
You look very nice too.
At your age, you need a lot of money.
There are so many things you want to buy and do.
Can you give me some?
I only pay those who work for me.
If you want me to pay you,
you should do some work for me.
Do you know Detective Oh Ji Hyuk?
Okay.
Can you tell me what that jerk did
to a nice girl like you?
Don't you remember Lee Dae Chul's case from five years ago?
I would have let Lee Dae Chul free
if it wasn't for your order.
What are you talking about, Superintendent Moon?
Prosecutor Jeong, you are the one that said to cover up that evidence.
Why are you mentioning that after all this time?
Jin Seo Gyeong speaking.
What is this? Why did you send this email to me?
Did your boss make you do it?
No, it's not like that.
Why is Jeonghan Daily doing this to me?
Minister, I was just wondering
That jerk, Yoo Jeong Seok, orchestrated everything.
And he's now trying to pin everything on me?
Does he think he can do this because I'm the Minister now?
Minister, I must have been mistaken.
What?
I should have gotten my facts straight first.
If you let it slide this once, I'll talk to my boss
and wrap this up here.
I apologize.
Is this everything?
What we saw at Han Dae Seong's home was just the tip of the iceberg.
He was hiding a lot more.
Let's go.
That jerk.
After the tunnel, turn the car around at the intersection.
- Pardon? - He was
in the Violent Crimes Unit for more than 10 years.
I'm sure he's noticed us.
It's me.
He's at the District Office Intersection right now
and heading to Gahyun High School. Yes.
You know his plate number, right?
Okay.
Good work.
How much is it? I should pay the meter, right?
There's no need.
- I'll get going. - No, I should pay you.
Did you not turn on the meter?
Hey, I only have 20 dollars right now.
- Thank you. - Thanks for your help.
- Thank you. - Bye.
Who is he?
An ex-con who served jail time for mugging.
Before he got his own taxi, I got him a job
at a taxi company right after he was released.
I see.
Take some photos now.
Done.
Good.
Oh, my.
Hide right here. Don't let anyone find you.
(1kg, Gold)
Hey, that car
Give me the rental receipt.
I'll have them reimburse you from our budget.
- Gosh, it's okay. - Just do as I say!
I can't stand it when you show off your wealth. I'll make them pay you.
That's my car too.
So you have two cars?
The other car is for work,
and that one is my second car. I use it for leisure.
I see.
The police force should only hire
rich guys like you.
That way, no one in the force will do such ridiculous stuff.
You obnoxious punk.
Okay, good.
Hey, he's leaving.
Is this real?
Yes, it is.
Superintendent Moon is a cop too.
Darn it.

- Hello. - Good morning.
Good morning.
Oh, go ahead.
(Jeonghan Daily)
(Police Information Officer Found Dead, Appears to Be a Suicide)
(An officer who was under internal investigation was found dead.)
(The police have refused to disclose why he was under investigation.)
- Good morning. - Good morning.
Good morning.
Morning.
(Reporter Song Gwang Hui)
Reporter Song.
Do you remember the suicide of the Incheon Police Agency's officer
from last year?
Oh, that case?
Gosh, it was such a pain in the neck.
They kept trying to hide it, so I assumed there was something
and even went through the trash,
but there wasn't really anything.
Did you find anything though?
Well, I did find a flash drive they had thrown out.
Did you check what was on that flash drive?
No, it was damaged.
The chief checked it when it was restored,
but he said there wasn't anything notable. That was that.
Why do you ask?
Oh, right.
The case I want to cover happened
around the same time as the suicide case,
so I was wondering if they were connected.
- Thank you anyway. - No problem.
The restored flash drive
He was executed because of this.
I believe I got it from the Ministry of Justice.
That jerk, Yoo Jeong Seok, orchestrated everything.
And he's now trying to pin everything on me?
Okay, let's do that.
All right.
Mr. Yoo knew about the recording.
He's known about it all along.
You rat.
Those photos
have already been sent to the Civil Petition Division.
Now, you can leave the force and grow vegetables in that greenhouse.
But to be honest, I don't think that's enough.
You manipulated the murder weapon in Lee Dae Chul's case.
You colluded with the prosecutor
and concealed all the real evidence.
If I think about all the crimes you've committed to date,
even a life sentence isn't enough.
(Superintendent Moon Sang Beom)
So you're doing this because of Lee Dae Chul's case?
Why on earth did you do that? Why?
Who bribed you? And how much did you get?
Why did you get him executed knowing he did nothing wrong?
Why?
No one bribed me.
I swear.
Then it makes no sense.
Why else would you do such a thing?
I simply acted according to my belief.
I was convinced that Lee Dae Chul was the culprit.
I still am.
Did I plant the weapon at the scene?
Yes, I did.
But if nothing had turned up at the scene,
Lee Dae Chul would've been acquitted.
He killed Jang Jin Soo.
That scumbag
killed our fellow officer!
All I did was make a killer the culprit in the case, you fool.
Was that
Was that really the only reason?
Bring all current and former
police officers in this country and ask them.
Ask them if I'm the only cop who has presented
manipulated evidence at a trial.
Be honest with me.
Do you still believe that Lee Dae Chul was the killer?
My opinion hasn't changed one bit.
6,428 days.
I've worked in the force
for 6,428 days since getting the police badge.
Do you really think
I'd be willing to risk everything I have like a lunatic
just to prove Lee Dae Chul's innocence
because I can't even recognize a murderer when I see one?
Please.
It's still not too late.
Just admit it.
Back then, both of us were wrong.
But now, you're wrong.
And I'm right.
What did he say? Did he admit to tampering with evidence?
Whose orders were they?
Well
Hey.
What do you think you're doing?
You are arrested for sexual assault against a minor.
If Oh Ji Hyuk gets sacked as a detective,
kill him.
Here.
This is
the CCTV footage of you
going into a hotel with Jang Yu Na.
And this
is a copy of the receipt
that proves you paid with your credit card.
(We thank Jo Jae Yoon for his guest appearance.)
(The Good Detective)
Lieutenant Oh of the Violent Crimes Unit?
- Oh Ji Hyuk? - Please tell her
not to say I raped her.
Hey, who do you think you are?
Are you here for that cop?
You know how I hate cops.
You should do better if you're trying to bring me down.
Should we call it even and each scrap it on our own?
Chief Nam must not have checked this.
We just have to find the guy who put this on Oh Ji Hyuk.
You jerk!
Is it okay if we beat him half to death?
If Oh Jong Tae is getting on your nerves,
what I know will be quite useful.
Don't try to get me kicked off the squad.
I'll go after you to the end even if I get fired.
Catch me if you can.
