Money Heist: Korea - Joint Economic Area (2022) s01e10 Episode Script
Episode 10
1
TWO MONTHS BEFORE THE INCIDEN
THE HIDDEN DIVORCE STORY
Right now, his lawyers are
just trying to drag us into a dogfight.
If we get caught up in it,
we're going to lose.
Can't we submit a rebuttal article
that says it's all a lie?
My daughter is getting stressed at school.
Honestly, I think it would be helpful
to have her grandmother testify.
We can't just keep pushing back the trial.
Uh I'm asking just in case,
but are there any health problems
that your mother is dealing with
at this moment.
There aren't.
Why do you ask me that?
Huh. That's a relief.
The lawyers on the other side have
requested her medical records,
trying to drum something up.
They're trying to invalidate her ability
to testify any way they can.
It's just proof that they're nervous.
Oh shit. Seriously?
Hello?
I'm sorry.
Listen, I'll call you later.
Are you all right?
I'm so sorry. Are you okay?
Yes.
My car Agh!
So Uh
You should probably see a doctor,
just in case.
No, I'm fine. Give me your card.
I'll call my insurance.
Right.
It may be dangerous to drive it
in that condition.
You might wanna call a tow.
Well, thank you so much
or your concern, but I'm okay, though.
Um
Do you want some coffee?
Uh, is asking you that too old-fashioned?
There's a new café
that just opened over there.
The coffee there is really good.
Hmm?
Are you flirting with me?
Just making a sale.
CAFE BELLA CIAO
You have a very strange way
of attracting customer.
Uh, yeah, well
To be honest,
it hasn't officially opened yet.
And I've never done this before.
But I kind of thought that I'd never
see you again if I just let you leave
Do you like coffee?
Got any alcohol?
What?
Do you have any alcohol?
I mean, I can't drive my car anymore,
and I happen to need a drinking buddy.
Ow! That's hot.
Two months before the operation,
the Professor deliberately
approached Inspector Seon
under the guise of coincidence.
She was exhausted by the lawsuit
about the custody of her daughter,
which was a hot topic among the press.
Maybe all she wanted
was to laugh and talk to someone
who didn't know anything about her.
But the Professor, who already knew
a lot about the Inspector,
was able to dig
right into the cracks of her heart.
And at that point, he was finally ready
to drag the Inspector into his plan.
Leaving without saying goodbye?
I'm actually still married.
Although, I am in the middle of a divorce.
I'm sorry.
This wasn't my intention coming here.
There's just been so much
on my mind. I wasn't thinking.
Aren't I awful?
Don't worry about it.
This was my intention
when I brought you here.
I guess it went as planned?
This is just the beginning.
I have a lot of things
I want to do with you, Woojin.
What kinda things?
Let me see. Hmm
You like traveling?
That's a little cliché.
Where would we go?
Vladivostok,
on the Trans-Siberian railway,
which has a train
that'll go through Moscow to Kyiv.
Really?
But doesn't that take a week or something?
It does, then we'll get there,
and we'll change trains,
and take that one to Kherson.
And where would that be?
It's a small port city
in southern Ukraine.
I hear it's a beautiful place.
If you really wanna go there, though,
wouldn't taking a plane be a bit faster?
It might a long time,
but traveling by train is romantic.
I'm sorry, that doesn't really
sound romantic.
I'll call you later.
I mean, there are people who are fine
at the scene of a car accident,
but end up pretending
they have neck pain later.
I didn't get to taste the coffee today,
but I'll come back when I have time.
PARK SUNHO
Why did it have to happen then?
If the Inspector hadn't collapsed
from exhaustion,
and if the Professor hadn't gone out there
to clean up the headquarters,
they would probably
never have seen each other again
for the rest of their lives.
And that's what should have happened.
Woojin! Woojin!
Wake up.
Woojin! Woojin!
Come on, wake up!
Hey, Woojin!
MONEY HEIST: KOREA - JOINT ECONOMIC AREA
While it has now been determined
that their accusations are untrue,
experts believe the fact that the suspects
made these false statements
points to the idea that it was intended
to impede the Inter-Korean
Economic Cooperation Summit.
It was expected that the leading
presidential candidate
Congressman Kim Sangman,
who is heading the summit,
would experience a drop
in approval ratings,
but opinion polls still show
strong support for the Congressman.
The Inter-Korean
Well, looks like we won't have to worry
about public opinion.
I thought the South Korean press
would be different,
but it appears that it shares
quite a few similarities with our own.
Of course, they need to be easy on us,
considering how much we spend
on advertising through them.
If we can get the people on the inside,
then it'll only be a matter of time
before we can get the ones on the outside.
All we need to do now is simply
brand them all as terrorists,
and find a way to get rid
of them all before the summit.
But there could be a backlash to that.
Our hands are all tied now anyway,
so we could just
take care of it after the summit, right?
Concerned for your approval ratings?
If the summit doesn't take place,
both of our political careers
will be decimated, and you and I
Be quiet for a second.
Our aim is to return the stolen future
of the unified Koreas
back into the hands of the people
who are the real owners of this land.
Listen, the people outside the Mint
are determined to hide our true intentions
and cover the reasons
for our actions up with lies.
Maybe they're afraid to be
exposed as the real thieves.
Then I'll give the people
of North and South Korea
an opportunity to make a choice between us
and the real thieves out there
who don't care about
the safety of these hostages.
At 3:00 p.m. tomorrow,
we promise you that we will be releasing
some of the hostages.
It will all be over tomorrow?
Stop this broadcast right now!
The live broadcast has been stopped,
but those you are watching
- seem to be sharing the footage.
- Stop it!
And check all the comments too!
Shut this all down!
Ah shit.
Ah, yes, Congressman.
We're on it right now.
We're handling it as we speak.
We're aware that
their communication equipment broke,
so this could be their method
of signaling to their people
on the outside.
Yes, of course, sir, but still, we're
thoroughly monitoring everything now
No, listen, I mean
that you should prevent them from
pulling bullshit stunts like this.
Can't you just cut off
the network or something?
No. That would only serve to
cut off our network as well.
And we believe that releasing the hostages
could be very advantageous for us, so
Listen to me, I'll be the judge of that.
So just shut those bastards the hell up!
Well, I guess they beat us to it.
Getting rid of them before the summit
just got harder.
Why don't we just consider
postponing the summit?
Congressman, are you joking?
If we do that, then we might as well hold
a press conference
to tell them that
everything those bastards said was true.
- No, that's just
- Business
is all about the timing.
You think you'll have another chance
to be president?
Or that there'll be another
development boom in North Korea? Come on!
You need to pull yourself together.
The summit will proceed as scheduled
in three days, no matter what.
So find a way to stop them,
and do it quickly.
That's the whole reason you two are here!
So if the hostages don't listen to us
and keep holding out
the way they're doing now,
then should we should try
to win them over with money, yeah?
I mean, the Professor told us that,
so it makes sense to me.
But I don't really understand
why we're letting the others go.
They won't really be of
any help if they stay here,
and it'll be important to make
the hostages choosing to stay believe us.
That's one reason for it,
but the most important thing
is getting Tokyo back here.
- Huh?
- What?
Come on, she risked her life
on the way out of here,
and you want her to do more?
I already talked to Tokyo.
From the beginning, it was Tokyo's mission
to meet the Professor and come back.
- What?
- Okay, but wait
There are snipers
all over the place out there.
And that's why we're going to use
the release of the hostages.
If she's mixed in with the hostages,
they can't shoot her easily.
He has a point.
Hey, I think we should just
do what we originally planned.
Why do we need
to do something so dangerous
when our escape route is almost complete.
If things were going according to plan,
we wouldn't have lost communication.
Now that Tokyo's explained the situation,
the Professor will have new plans.
There's only one way we'll know
what those plans are.
Congressman
Kim Sangman's approval rating
with respect
to the next presidential election
is expected to drop
by more than 10 percent.
NEGOTIATION 'COMMENCEMENT'
MOSCOW'S SUDDEN BEHAVIOR
Experts say that the progression of the
Mint incident and how it is being handled
will not only affect
the economic cooperation summit,
but also the upcoming
presidential elections.
JEON YONGSU'S INTERVENTION
TOKYO ARREST "RESCUE"
Experts believe this is due to the fact
that the suspects inside the Mint
announced on their live stream
that they would be releasing
some of the hostages shortly.
The suspects are justifying their actions,
saying that this is
more than a simple heist,
and that the true goal
of the entire incident
is for the suspects
to expose the corruption
of certain parties involved in the
Inter-Korean Economic Cooperation Summit.
People have reacted
to the topic of corruption
The Professor analyzed the Mint's
rapidly changing situation all night.
And he came to the conclusion that
there was going to be a major upheaval
that could devastate his plan.
I'm changing our plan.
What are you talking about?
The escape route
will be completed in a few days.
Don't we just need to wait
until the day of the summit?
Can't afford to do that.
Didn't you hear how they talked about it
on the news said last night?
Public opinion is on our side,
and it's not like they can
just infiltrate the Mint.
We can ride on the tiger's back,
but we can't make it go the way we want.
Having public opinion on our side
was a prerequisite for escape,
but things are changing
more rapidly than I expected.
So did you find a solution?
- It won't be easy.
- That's okay.
I'll deliver the message.
Please do.
If we don't let them know
of the change in plans,
they might not be able to survive,
let alone escape.
The suspects who are occupying
the Mint announced via live stream
they will be releasing
some of the hostages at 3:00 p.m. today.
There are many different speculations
as to why the suspects have
come to this determination,
and it is still unclear
whether or not the suspects have done this
to strengthen their existing claims,
or if there are other reasons
behind the decision.
Hey, Mom.
Are you awake now, honey?
How did I end up here?
Fatigue.
I'm just glad it wasn't worse.
When you're working this hard already,
you need to be careful.
You ended up passing out
on the street.
But who who brought me here, though?
We only knew to come because
we got a call from the hospital.
The nurse said
someone brought you in
when they found you
on the street unconscious.
But there wasn't anyone with you
when we got here.
Woojin, come on, wake up!
Hey, Woojin!
So we're really giving them
three billion won if they stay here?
We are.
But what if the hostages
don't care about the money at all and say,
"Fuck it, I just get out
of this place right now"?
Then what are we supposed to do?
That's not going to happen.
You'll see how cunning
people get when money is on the line.
They'll stay here.
Do you think that they're really
going to let us go?
I mean, they even broadcasted it.
Do you really think
they are gonna pay us if we stay?
Mr. Park, so you'll stay if it's true?
I mean, three billion is a lot of money.
Not to mention,
it would be pretty life-changing.
And also, the money they're printing
all belongs to the bad guys.
You out of your mind?
Have you forgotten that those bad guys
are the ones who sign our paychecks?
I mean, three billion isn't even enough
to raise an eyebrow when you're
the director of the Mint, is it?
Of course it isn't.
Only three billion?
Okay,
the time has come to decide.
Have all of you made up your minds
about what you want?
I'm sure it's not
an easy decision, hmm?
Uh, since you've given us all a choice,
may I have a moment to express
my own opinion as Director of the Mint?
Yes, go ahead.
People, there's no need to think it over!
This is obviously a trick.
These asshole thieves
Don't fall for it!
Why the hell would these criminals
give us all that money?
They're just trying
to take advantage of us.
You think so? You sure about that?
What can we do
if they lie to us
and making us help them without paying?
And when we get released,
you know what'll happen?
We're going to be fired by the Mint
for cooperating with these criminals!
Whether you leave now or sometime later,
won't you get fired either way?
What?
I mean, look back
at everything you've done so far.
There have been so many times where you
put people in danger to save yourself.
Wait. What are you talking about?
When was that?
Oh!
I guess the people who got out
said that already.
Hey! Does that matter?
All this is a trick, okay?
Helsinki!
Go ahead, bring it.
Whoa. Do you think
they'd really let us take this?
Okay, take a look.
We're not lying
when we tell you we're going to pay you!
If anyone wants to take it,
you can just go ahead and take it.
- Wait, really?
- Seriously?
But what's the point?
If we make it out of here,
you know what, the police are
just going to take the money back.
Well, yes, that's right.
We'll need to find a better way
to deliver the money.
We already have a method in mind.
We can
I guess I can't tell you, though.
If the hostages who get released
snitch about the plan,
the police are going to take
all this money.
And if you still don't believe us,
we're going to give it to you
however you want.
As my director friend said,
if you do choose to work with us,
you'll be fired from your current job.
But three billion won
is enough money to start a brand-new life.
Okay. Starting now, we're gonna be having
one-on-one meetings with everyone.
So think about it carefully.
Three billion each?
If it's ten people, that's 30 billion.
The hostages' cooperation will be
the most crucial thing.
Especially when we're near escape.
We really need to use money?
In movies, sometimes people
are stuck in a life or death situation,
gradually they all get real close
to each together.
You know what I mean? Huh?
You know what that is called?
Stockholm syndrome.
Oh, I think I've seen that movie.
No, you haven't.
Shit. What is that?
Is it a mental illness or what?
I mean, yeah, it's kind of like that.
What it is, is a psychological condition
that makes a hostage
identify with their captor.
- Huh?
- Whoa.
Oh.
- You know stuff like that?
- I heard someone mention it in jail.
Oh.
Of course, some hostages
might feel that way,
but if the hostage situation gets longer,
it'll be harder to control.
- Something unexpected could happen.
- What kind of something?
The hostages could
rise up, revolt, and escape.
Oh, come on, you little shit.
Do you think they're gonna be
like Bruce Willis or what, huh?
Die Hard.
That's right.
That is possible, though.
That's right,
and if something like that happens,
the remaining hostages
will no longer be afraid of us anymore.
And also, if they go on strike, we won't
be able to print enough money on time.
Well, clearly that can never happen, okay?
Oh, but wait
How do we know it'll work
in that situation?
Like, giving them three billion won? Huh?
Think about it.
If a hostage chooses the three billion
instead of freedom,
from then on,
they'll be rooting for us to succeed.
And they'll be desperate,
because they want the three billion.
Then they'll become accomplices.
That's right.
Please don't be nervous.
You can say what's on your mind.
Are you, uh, really going to let me go
without any strings attached?
Uh-huh.
What, you think
we're all out to trick you?
I mean, if there is a condition,
it's that if you decide to leave now,
you're gonna be broke.
Let's hear it then.
Are you still itching to leave
after hearing what I said back there?
Uh So I thought about it, and then you
said you'd give me that money in advance?
- And if I did?
- Well, that three billion
Why don't we hide it
somewhere in the Mint?
They'd never even think
that we'd hide it here.
There's a place only I know.
I have something to ask you.
What is it?
You're leaving?
- Can you tell me your name?
- Huh?
My name?
Oh. I mean, I'm sorry,
but you know I can't tell you that.
Too bad that Tokyo is gone.
Didn't you two catch feelings?
Ah. It was just one-sided.
Just shut the fuck up.
So what are you going to do now?
So I actually have
a choice this time, I guess?
That's new.
God, how did you end up
with your job, you dumbass?
I'm sure you thought it was a smart move,
but do you really think
the cops wouldn't find it?
When all of this is over,
the Mint will become a crime scene.
And the cops are going to
search every nook and cranny.
So I'll answer you right away.
I don't need to think about it.
I'm going to stay here.
You are?
I haven't even said a word yet.
Well, if you still don't believe us,
we'll just go ahead and let you out.
No, just hold on a sec.
Tell me, what's the method
you have in mind?
Please let me know what it is.
Honestly,
I don't have any choice.
I really need to stay in here.
Well, yeah.
You saw it too.
The guys out there
are completely fucking crazy
and don't care either way
if you're in here or not.
It's Taeksu.
Oh Taeksu.
Taeksu
I don't really want the money, but I
I wanna stay.
I want to be with you, Taeksu.
I'm embarrassed to admit,
but I'm doing my job more efficiently
and happily than I have in my entire life.
Honestly, the truth is that you're far and
away the best boss that I've ever had.
My director friend, only for you,
I'll tell you this in advance. Hmm?
When everything eventually dies down,
a box will arrive at your house,
so watch out for it.
It'll come quietly, no one's gonna know.
Okay.
Time to decide now.
- Three billion?
- Or do you pick freedom?
Freedom to the left.
And money to the right.
Director.
It's this way.
Anne, what are you
What's with you people?
Didn't you say
we could leave if we wanted to?
- It's okay, I said that I would stay here.
- Huh?
Okay. For the friends who chose freedom,
you'll be able to leave
in just a moment,
the time we promised that you could.
Those who decide to stay,
will move over to the Mint's machines.
We'll have a blast printing money,
and talking about all the fun ways
you'll be spending your three billion won.
Follow me.
Hey. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Sorry, I misread the time.
Yun Misun is
going to stay.
Okay, over there.
Dad, hey, what?
Hey, wait.
Wait, hey, stop. Wait.
Dad, stop. What's wrong with you?
What's going on with you and her?
What do you mean?
Look me in the eyes and tell me the truth.
Dad.
The thing is,
I love that woman.
What?
Come on, if we get out of here,
we'll have all the money we want.
And Misun and I will take care of you
and we'll all live happy lives.
And you'll get a grandkid
Are you crazy?
That girl's our hostage! God!
Yeah, and so what?
We're in love, so what's the big problem?
In love?
This is Stockholm syndrome. Remember?
Don't be an idiot, Dad.
You don't even know
what you're talking about.
Come on, Dad, just drop it.
What do you know? I mean, seriously.
What did she say? She said
she doesn't need the money, didn't she?
I'm sure.
She said that she doesn't need money
or any of that,
because all she needs
is your love. Is that right?
Your mom said that as well.
What do you mean?
I never
told you about
how your mother and I met, did I?
Your mother was a teller
at the bank that I went to rob.
Huh?
Just like this woman,
your mom said she didn't need money,
she didn't need anything else,
that we should just run away together.
We both thought it was love too.
But then,
as soon as she gave birth to you,
she said to let her go.
Please.
Please, Son,
don't turn out like me, okay? Please!
Denver wanted to respond,
but he instinctively knew
that criticizing his father's past
was only denying his own present.
Shit! This is fucked!
So, it goes in right here.
Then over through here,
and this is where it gets printed.
Okay! We have to work even harder
to make up for lost time, right?
Hey, you there!
Don't just stand there.
You better get back to work!
Nothing's free in this world, okay?
Can't you see how hard I work?
Hustle, guys!
Come on, everyone, you need to help.
Go on, get to work!
Earn the money you'll take!
Isn't it beautiful?
You can't help but admire it, right?
Why did you stay?
I don't think it's because you need money.
You know, I'm not really sure myself.
What?
I think I just wanted to see
how everything ends up here.
You collapsed in
the street, but you're already discharged?
Don't you need to rest more?
No, it's fine.
So about the announcement
the suspects made
the fact that
they had to make a scene like that
Don't worry, we'll take care
of things here, you take a break.
I already put you on leave.
Come on, Chief.
Agh!
Fine, I'll drop it.
Hello there,
where can I take you?
Are you closing your café?
Woojin.
So you were the one
who took me to the hospital?
I'm glad you were discharged so soon.
The case about the Mint
is out of hands now.
I really missed you.
And I regret how I handled things.
With everything going on with the case,
I wasn't in my right mind.
Inside information was being leaked,
and then Captain Cha disappeared.
I'm not here to make excuses.
I just
I'm sorry for hurting you.
My feelings for you are real, though.
Even if I don't get to see you again,
I just wanted to say that.
I'll leave now.
Woojin.
No matter how perfect a plan is,
it doesn't always go
exactly as calculated.
The Professor was well aware of that.
Because plans are carried out
by imperfect human beings who are driven
by their conflicting emotions.
But what he didn't know was that
he could be driven
by the same kind of emotions as well.
Now that I'm taking some time off work,
do you want to go on a vacation?
Remember when we first met,
and you asked me
to travel by train with you?
Back then, uh,
the city you wanted to go was
Where was it again?
It was called
Mmm.
Kherson.
Ah.
It's a port city where
the Black Sea and the Dnipro River meet.
What is it that makes you want
to go there, of all places?
When I was younger,
my father first heard of it
from an acquaintance who'd visited,
and afterwards,
it became his lifelong wish
that one day, our whole family
could live there together.
Your father?
This might be the first time
I've ever heard about your family.
I don't really love to talk about it.
Partially because in his final years,
he forgot all about Kherson.
He had it pretty rough
until the day he died.
Was it dementia that your father had?
Yes.
Yes, my father had dementia too.
I guess I have to go.
So much to do
to close up the café.
So, are we going to
take that trip to Kherson?
When he first mentioned going
to Kherson, he didn't really mean it.
But in that moment, the Professor
sincerely wanted to go there with her.
Even though he had to disappear
in just a few days.
Okay.
When I close the café, let's go there.
I mean, who cares about Fuckholm
or Stockholm syndrome
or whatever that dumb bullshit is called.
What are you doing standing there?
Nothing.
Your dad told you
to leave that Misun girl, didn't he?
Wait, how how'd you know?
Your face says it all.
Do you think she's got
that Stockholm thing like my dad?
Not sure.
Whatever is going on in her mind,
whatever you both feel,
isn't it all right as long as you're sure
that you won't regret it?
Berlin.
I heard that you brought that girl out
of the concentration camp with you.
Is that true? Seoul, right?
And she followed you out too,
didn't she? Huh?
Then doesn't that mean
you two love each other?
Doesn't it?
Well, I regret it now.
Huh?
Shit
Why are you even here?
What are you talking about?
Aren't you a wealthy
Pyongyang university graduate?
You're putting on a Seoul accent,
but the way you talk gives it away.
Does it?
I guess it isn't very easy
to erase the past.
How did you end up falling in
with those guys?
That's a long story.
If you wanted,
you could have lived
a very comfortable life.
If you regret it though,
it's still not too late.
- Even now, if you'll help me
- What? You'll erase my past?
You'll give me a new life,
something like that?
Sorry, but
I'm already living a new life.
And I like it a lot.
I'll just take this.
Good luck getting out of those handcuffs.
I'm punishing you now.
Where have you been for so long?
I had to handle something.
If you're ready, shall we go?
Wait. Hold on.
Take this.
It's medicine.
Give it to Berlin, please.
And if Berlin is gonna try
to do something stupid
Don't worry, I'm going to grab him
by the neck and drag him out.
Let's go.
THE HOUSE OF PAPER IS OURS
Our lives are greater than paper!
MAKE THEM PAY!
REVEAL THE TRUTH!
We want the truth!
Tell us the truth!
MAKE THEM PAY!
REVEAL THE TRUTH!
What is going on in there?
A few questions!
We have a right to know what's going on!
I just want to see my daughter.
My daughter is trapped in there.
Stop pushing. Stop pushing.
- What's going on right now?
- What are you doing?
Why the hell is it so loud out there?
We've set a perimeter of 100 meters,
but it's difficult
to keep it under control.
It's hard to stop the reporters,
and protestors, and hostages' families.
Why do you think they publicly announced
their plan to release the hostages?
They're clearly aiming for propaganda.
Do you have any idea
how complicated things got
after the last stunt they pulled on us?
I don't know what it is
these people are up to,
but we can't let them play us anymore.
There shouldn't be
any part of this situation
that we can't actively control.
Do I make myself clear?
Yes.
Set up a tight perimeter
so that no one is closer
than 300 meters of the Mint. All right?
Right. But what about the reporters?
Start with all of the streamers
and YouTubers.
Get rid of them first.
And, uh, only the news outlets
on this list can stay.
They won't go live, and with all of them,
we've discussed the direction
of the reporting.
Yes.
Yes, my father had dementia too.
"had dementia too."
Get that!
This is a very important moment for us.
They've got more troops.
They didn't figure out our plan, did they?
No.
They're scared
of what the public will say.
This makes things
much harder for us.
It's not looking good for us out there.
There need to be a ton of people
for us to have an opening.
But they got rid of them.
Shit. We need to stop this now,
before it's too late.
They've doubled the force out there
and completely blocked any access.
Tokyo trying to come back now,
that would be a suicide mission.
Hey, I don't think we can
release the hostages.
No, we have to.
But why? Is it because of public opinion?
I already told you,
our survival depends on it.
Did the Professor say that?
Are you sure it's not part
of your crazy plan for revolution?
Berlin!
Don't make a fool of yourself.
You sound ridiculous.
What does a South Korean rich kid
know about anything?
Do you think Tokyo will give up on us
if we don't release the hostages?
She'll risk her life to come back. Why?
For all of us here.
Backing out?
That's what will get Tokyo killed.
Do you get that, you little asshole?
Hey! If anything bad happens
to Tokyo today,
I will kill you myself, got that?
Yeah, that's great.
I'm looking forward to it, kid.
Shit.
Hold on. Ahh! Ow!
You
You should leave now.
What?
Just get out of here!
Why are you saying this out of nowhere?
Leave now, and live a normal life.
Don't regret this later.
I won't regret it.
And it doesn't matter
if I regret it later or not.
The reason I decided to stay with you
is completely my choice.
Hey, get a hold of yourself.
I'm a criminal.
My dad was in and out of prison
for theft my entire life, so
I never learned how to do anything else.
I'm just an asshole
who only knows how to fight people.
Trusting a guy like me
and choosing to stay here
Does that make any sense? Huh?
Why are you doing this?
Ah shit, seriously.
Fuck! I've explained it to you,
so why can't you just take a hint
and get out of here?
Why don't you fucking get it?
Taeksu, please.
Get out of here.
I don't care about you anymore.
After you were dating that old guy,
I thought we both just wanted
some meaningless fun.
- What?
- Oh, come on.
Oh, what, are you just pretending
to be clueless because of the money?
Then I'll send you three billion won
I don't need that money.
You son of a bitch.
What are you doing?
Time's up, everyone.
Hostages who are going to leave,
gather in the lobby.
Ah shit.
Oh, goddamn it!
Tokyo.
- You hear me?
- Yes.
I'm all ready now.
To be honest, this operation
isn't going to be easy.
If you fail by any chance
I'm captured or even killed.
I know all that.
This might be too much of a burden. Sorry.
Professor.
I only have one question to ask.
Go on.
The promise you made me back then
is still good, right?
Of course it is.
Okay, fine then.
Let's go ahead and do it.
Shit.
It's okay.
As promised, with no strings attached,
we're sending 15 hostages
back into their family's arms right now.
I'm thankful for the patience
our hostages have shown,
and all of their hard work.
We are standing
hundreds of meters away
from entrance to the Mint,
but as you can see,
except for some particular media outlets,
it's impossible
to approach or ask questions.
In response
to these very difficult measures
the authorities said
The North and the South
Huh, why is it lagging? Shit.
What's wrong?
- Wait. What's wrong?
- Everything's been cut off.
I don't understand.
Hey, what's going on in there?
Hey, come here and cover that side.
- It's ridiculous!
- Excuse me?
All nearby radio stations
and networks have been shut down.
He doesn't want to talk
now that the microphone is gone, does he?
Look at their faces,
they're so flustered.
It's time to go home now.
Uh, let's go.
You all did well.
Just take it slow and watch your step.
Come out!
Go, now!
What is that?
- I think it might be an accomplice.
- What
You're just going to watch?
Fire! Fire! Fire right now!
Then what about the hostages
Sniper, sniper, what are you doing?
Shoot! Shoot, now!
- It's a sniper!
- Covering fire!
Are you crazy? Shit!
Close it!
Going! Rio, get in!
Inside!
Hey, watch out!
Close the door!
That was awesome!
Aah!
Goodness.
Wow, welcome back.
Welcome back.
Yes, welcome.
Welcome back. Come on.
This way, yes.
Come on, now.
You did pretty good, huh?
Hey, hey, did you get hurt?
I mean, you almost died just now.
But I didn't die.
Right.
Oh, babe, I missed you so much.
You did it!
Berlin.
How did you get this?
Some girl told me
that I should bring it to you.
Why
Aah.
Apologize to your dad.
Huh?
Why should I?
He's still your dad.
Yeah, no way.
I mean, in a few days,
he'll come back around
like he always does,
and says sorry and everything.
And then, once we talk,
I know that it'll all be fine.
Don't worry about it at all.
Honestly.
When it comes to my dad and I,
we're always like this.
What is this about? Hmm?
Come on, tell me what's going on?
WOOJIN WORKS AT GYEONGGI POLICE AGENCY
Mom, so, about that café owner.
Oh. That man that you've been seeing?
- Yeah.
- Of course. What, now?
Mom, think. Have you ever met that man?
I'm not sure.
About a month ago,
when he dropped you off here,
I think I saw him
for a quick second there.
Please think carefully, Mom. Okay?
I think I
I think I called you.
What? What do you mean, huh?
I think I saw
that man there.
And that's why I called you.
You mean you saw him here?
Did he come to see me? Hmm?
I don't know.
- What's wrong, Mom? Huh?
- I just don't know.
Mom, Mom, when was that?
When was that?
- Can you remember what happened?
- I don't know.
All right. All right. It's all right.
- I don't know.
- It's all right. It's all right.
One second.
PROSECUTOR LEE MINHO
CHA MOOHYUK
CHA MOOHYUK
This may not be
the best time to bring this up, but
When did you start seeing
that man, Park Sunho?
You think they targeted me?
Why were you eavesdropping on my call?
Woojin, let me
I'll only need a minute!
Hey, Sunho. What is this
Oh, Woojin, here. It's your mother.
What was on the menu
this morning?
Sandwiches.
Over here.
I think that we've found it.
Okay.
Those bastards
Okay,
that was great work, everyone.
We're We're almost there now.
Wait a minute.
- That fucker!
- Fuck!
Fucker!
Go that way!
This must be what
Captain Cha Moohyuk found that day.
"Name."
PERSONAL INFORMATION
"Song
Sunho."
SPECIAL NOTE
"Deletion of Resident Registration
due to death."
"The aforementioned person's
data was registered
in accordance with article 19
of the North Korean Refugee Act."
"He and his father, Song Minhyeok
defected from North Korea."
"His mother and brother
were reported missing
during the journey."
Cha!
Is that man okay?
Sorry.
Where's Moscow, though?
What?
I have no idea.
I'll tell him whatever this is later.
So, go on.
The summit is happening
sooner than expected.
- So they're moving it up?
- Mm-hmm.
By how much?
If the Professor's prediction is right,
we need to
get out of here by tomorrow.
TWO MONTHS BEFORE THE INCIDEN
THE HIDDEN DIVORCE STORY
Right now, his lawyers are
just trying to drag us into a dogfight.
If we get caught up in it,
we're going to lose.
Can't we submit a rebuttal article
that says it's all a lie?
My daughter is getting stressed at school.
Honestly, I think it would be helpful
to have her grandmother testify.
We can't just keep pushing back the trial.
Uh I'm asking just in case,
but are there any health problems
that your mother is dealing with
at this moment.
There aren't.
Why do you ask me that?
Huh. That's a relief.
The lawyers on the other side have
requested her medical records,
trying to drum something up.
They're trying to invalidate her ability
to testify any way they can.
It's just proof that they're nervous.
Oh shit. Seriously?
Hello?
I'm sorry.
Listen, I'll call you later.
Are you all right?
I'm so sorry. Are you okay?
Yes.
My car Agh!
So Uh
You should probably see a doctor,
just in case.
No, I'm fine. Give me your card.
I'll call my insurance.
Right.
It may be dangerous to drive it
in that condition.
You might wanna call a tow.
Well, thank you so much
or your concern, but I'm okay, though.
Um
Do you want some coffee?
Uh, is asking you that too old-fashioned?
There's a new café
that just opened over there.
The coffee there is really good.
Hmm?
Are you flirting with me?
Just making a sale.
CAFE BELLA CIAO
You have a very strange way
of attracting customer.
Uh, yeah, well
To be honest,
it hasn't officially opened yet.
And I've never done this before.
But I kind of thought that I'd never
see you again if I just let you leave
Do you like coffee?
Got any alcohol?
What?
Do you have any alcohol?
I mean, I can't drive my car anymore,
and I happen to need a drinking buddy.
Ow! That's hot.
Two months before the operation,
the Professor deliberately
approached Inspector Seon
under the guise of coincidence.
She was exhausted by the lawsuit
about the custody of her daughter,
which was a hot topic among the press.
Maybe all she wanted
was to laugh and talk to someone
who didn't know anything about her.
But the Professor, who already knew
a lot about the Inspector,
was able to dig
right into the cracks of her heart.
And at that point, he was finally ready
to drag the Inspector into his plan.
Leaving without saying goodbye?
I'm actually still married.
Although, I am in the middle of a divorce.
I'm sorry.
This wasn't my intention coming here.
There's just been so much
on my mind. I wasn't thinking.
Aren't I awful?
Don't worry about it.
This was my intention
when I brought you here.
I guess it went as planned?
This is just the beginning.
I have a lot of things
I want to do with you, Woojin.
What kinda things?
Let me see. Hmm
You like traveling?
That's a little cliché.
Where would we go?
Vladivostok,
on the Trans-Siberian railway,
which has a train
that'll go through Moscow to Kyiv.
Really?
But doesn't that take a week or something?
It does, then we'll get there,
and we'll change trains,
and take that one to Kherson.
And where would that be?
It's a small port city
in southern Ukraine.
I hear it's a beautiful place.
If you really wanna go there, though,
wouldn't taking a plane be a bit faster?
It might a long time,
but traveling by train is romantic.
I'm sorry, that doesn't really
sound romantic.
I'll call you later.
I mean, there are people who are fine
at the scene of a car accident,
but end up pretending
they have neck pain later.
I didn't get to taste the coffee today,
but I'll come back when I have time.
PARK SUNHO
Why did it have to happen then?
If the Inspector hadn't collapsed
from exhaustion,
and if the Professor hadn't gone out there
to clean up the headquarters,
they would probably
never have seen each other again
for the rest of their lives.
And that's what should have happened.
Woojin! Woojin!
Wake up.
Woojin! Woojin!
Come on, wake up!
Hey, Woojin!
MONEY HEIST: KOREA - JOINT ECONOMIC AREA
While it has now been determined
that their accusations are untrue,
experts believe the fact that the suspects
made these false statements
points to the idea that it was intended
to impede the Inter-Korean
Economic Cooperation Summit.
It was expected that the leading
presidential candidate
Congressman Kim Sangman,
who is heading the summit,
would experience a drop
in approval ratings,
but opinion polls still show
strong support for the Congressman.
The Inter-Korean
Well, looks like we won't have to worry
about public opinion.
I thought the South Korean press
would be different,
but it appears that it shares
quite a few similarities with our own.
Of course, they need to be easy on us,
considering how much we spend
on advertising through them.
If we can get the people on the inside,
then it'll only be a matter of time
before we can get the ones on the outside.
All we need to do now is simply
brand them all as terrorists,
and find a way to get rid
of them all before the summit.
But there could be a backlash to that.
Our hands are all tied now anyway,
so we could just
take care of it after the summit, right?
Concerned for your approval ratings?
If the summit doesn't take place,
both of our political careers
will be decimated, and you and I
Be quiet for a second.
Our aim is to return the stolen future
of the unified Koreas
back into the hands of the people
who are the real owners of this land.
Listen, the people outside the Mint
are determined to hide our true intentions
and cover the reasons
for our actions up with lies.
Maybe they're afraid to be
exposed as the real thieves.
Then I'll give the people
of North and South Korea
an opportunity to make a choice between us
and the real thieves out there
who don't care about
the safety of these hostages.
At 3:00 p.m. tomorrow,
we promise you that we will be releasing
some of the hostages.
It will all be over tomorrow?
Stop this broadcast right now!
The live broadcast has been stopped,
but those you are watching
- seem to be sharing the footage.
- Stop it!
And check all the comments too!
Shut this all down!
Ah shit.
Ah, yes, Congressman.
We're on it right now.
We're handling it as we speak.
We're aware that
their communication equipment broke,
so this could be their method
of signaling to their people
on the outside.
Yes, of course, sir, but still, we're
thoroughly monitoring everything now
No, listen, I mean
that you should prevent them from
pulling bullshit stunts like this.
Can't you just cut off
the network or something?
No. That would only serve to
cut off our network as well.
And we believe that releasing the hostages
could be very advantageous for us, so
Listen to me, I'll be the judge of that.
So just shut those bastards the hell up!
Well, I guess they beat us to it.
Getting rid of them before the summit
just got harder.
Why don't we just consider
postponing the summit?
Congressman, are you joking?
If we do that, then we might as well hold
a press conference
to tell them that
everything those bastards said was true.
- No, that's just
- Business
is all about the timing.
You think you'll have another chance
to be president?
Or that there'll be another
development boom in North Korea? Come on!
You need to pull yourself together.
The summit will proceed as scheduled
in three days, no matter what.
So find a way to stop them,
and do it quickly.
That's the whole reason you two are here!
So if the hostages don't listen to us
and keep holding out
the way they're doing now,
then should we should try
to win them over with money, yeah?
I mean, the Professor told us that,
so it makes sense to me.
But I don't really understand
why we're letting the others go.
They won't really be of
any help if they stay here,
and it'll be important to make
the hostages choosing to stay believe us.
That's one reason for it,
but the most important thing
is getting Tokyo back here.
- Huh?
- What?
Come on, she risked her life
on the way out of here,
and you want her to do more?
I already talked to Tokyo.
From the beginning, it was Tokyo's mission
to meet the Professor and come back.
- What?
- Okay, but wait
There are snipers
all over the place out there.
And that's why we're going to use
the release of the hostages.
If she's mixed in with the hostages,
they can't shoot her easily.
He has a point.
Hey, I think we should just
do what we originally planned.
Why do we need
to do something so dangerous
when our escape route is almost complete.
If things were going according to plan,
we wouldn't have lost communication.
Now that Tokyo's explained the situation,
the Professor will have new plans.
There's only one way we'll know
what those plans are.
Congressman
Kim Sangman's approval rating
with respect
to the next presidential election
is expected to drop
by more than 10 percent.
NEGOTIATION 'COMMENCEMENT'
MOSCOW'S SUDDEN BEHAVIOR
Experts say that the progression of the
Mint incident and how it is being handled
will not only affect
the economic cooperation summit,
but also the upcoming
presidential elections.
JEON YONGSU'S INTERVENTION
TOKYO ARREST "RESCUE"
Experts believe this is due to the fact
that the suspects inside the Mint
announced on their live stream
that they would be releasing
some of the hostages shortly.
The suspects are justifying their actions,
saying that this is
more than a simple heist,
and that the true goal
of the entire incident
is for the suspects
to expose the corruption
of certain parties involved in the
Inter-Korean Economic Cooperation Summit.
People have reacted
to the topic of corruption
The Professor analyzed the Mint's
rapidly changing situation all night.
And he came to the conclusion that
there was going to be a major upheaval
that could devastate his plan.
I'm changing our plan.
What are you talking about?
The escape route
will be completed in a few days.
Don't we just need to wait
until the day of the summit?
Can't afford to do that.
Didn't you hear how they talked about it
on the news said last night?
Public opinion is on our side,
and it's not like they can
just infiltrate the Mint.
We can ride on the tiger's back,
but we can't make it go the way we want.
Having public opinion on our side
was a prerequisite for escape,
but things are changing
more rapidly than I expected.
So did you find a solution?
- It won't be easy.
- That's okay.
I'll deliver the message.
Please do.
If we don't let them know
of the change in plans,
they might not be able to survive,
let alone escape.
The suspects who are occupying
the Mint announced via live stream
they will be releasing
some of the hostages at 3:00 p.m. today.
There are many different speculations
as to why the suspects have
come to this determination,
and it is still unclear
whether or not the suspects have done this
to strengthen their existing claims,
or if there are other reasons
behind the decision.
Hey, Mom.
Are you awake now, honey?
How did I end up here?
Fatigue.
I'm just glad it wasn't worse.
When you're working this hard already,
you need to be careful.
You ended up passing out
on the street.
But who who brought me here, though?
We only knew to come because
we got a call from the hospital.
The nurse said
someone brought you in
when they found you
on the street unconscious.
But there wasn't anyone with you
when we got here.
Woojin, come on, wake up!
Hey, Woojin!
So we're really giving them
three billion won if they stay here?
We are.
But what if the hostages
don't care about the money at all and say,
"Fuck it, I just get out
of this place right now"?
Then what are we supposed to do?
That's not going to happen.
You'll see how cunning
people get when money is on the line.
They'll stay here.
Do you think that they're really
going to let us go?
I mean, they even broadcasted it.
Do you really think
they are gonna pay us if we stay?
Mr. Park, so you'll stay if it's true?
I mean, three billion is a lot of money.
Not to mention,
it would be pretty life-changing.
And also, the money they're printing
all belongs to the bad guys.
You out of your mind?
Have you forgotten that those bad guys
are the ones who sign our paychecks?
I mean, three billion isn't even enough
to raise an eyebrow when you're
the director of the Mint, is it?
Of course it isn't.
Only three billion?
Okay,
the time has come to decide.
Have all of you made up your minds
about what you want?
I'm sure it's not
an easy decision, hmm?
Uh, since you've given us all a choice,
may I have a moment to express
my own opinion as Director of the Mint?
Yes, go ahead.
People, there's no need to think it over!
This is obviously a trick.
These asshole thieves
Don't fall for it!
Why the hell would these criminals
give us all that money?
They're just trying
to take advantage of us.
You think so? You sure about that?
What can we do
if they lie to us
and making us help them without paying?
And when we get released,
you know what'll happen?
We're going to be fired by the Mint
for cooperating with these criminals!
Whether you leave now or sometime later,
won't you get fired either way?
What?
I mean, look back
at everything you've done so far.
There have been so many times where you
put people in danger to save yourself.
Wait. What are you talking about?
When was that?
Oh!
I guess the people who got out
said that already.
Hey! Does that matter?
All this is a trick, okay?
Helsinki!
Go ahead, bring it.
Whoa. Do you think
they'd really let us take this?
Okay, take a look.
We're not lying
when we tell you we're going to pay you!
If anyone wants to take it,
you can just go ahead and take it.
- Wait, really?
- Seriously?
But what's the point?
If we make it out of here,
you know what, the police are
just going to take the money back.
Well, yes, that's right.
We'll need to find a better way
to deliver the money.
We already have a method in mind.
We can
I guess I can't tell you, though.
If the hostages who get released
snitch about the plan,
the police are going to take
all this money.
And if you still don't believe us,
we're going to give it to you
however you want.
As my director friend said,
if you do choose to work with us,
you'll be fired from your current job.
But three billion won
is enough money to start a brand-new life.
Okay. Starting now, we're gonna be having
one-on-one meetings with everyone.
So think about it carefully.
Three billion each?
If it's ten people, that's 30 billion.
The hostages' cooperation will be
the most crucial thing.
Especially when we're near escape.
We really need to use money?
In movies, sometimes people
are stuck in a life or death situation,
gradually they all get real close
to each together.
You know what I mean? Huh?
You know what that is called?
Stockholm syndrome.
Oh, I think I've seen that movie.
No, you haven't.
Shit. What is that?
Is it a mental illness or what?
I mean, yeah, it's kind of like that.
What it is, is a psychological condition
that makes a hostage
identify with their captor.
- Huh?
- Whoa.
Oh.
- You know stuff like that?
- I heard someone mention it in jail.
Oh.
Of course, some hostages
might feel that way,
but if the hostage situation gets longer,
it'll be harder to control.
- Something unexpected could happen.
- What kind of something?
The hostages could
rise up, revolt, and escape.
Oh, come on, you little shit.
Do you think they're gonna be
like Bruce Willis or what, huh?
Die Hard.
That's right.
That is possible, though.
That's right,
and if something like that happens,
the remaining hostages
will no longer be afraid of us anymore.
And also, if they go on strike, we won't
be able to print enough money on time.
Well, clearly that can never happen, okay?
Oh, but wait
How do we know it'll work
in that situation?
Like, giving them three billion won? Huh?
Think about it.
If a hostage chooses the three billion
instead of freedom,
from then on,
they'll be rooting for us to succeed.
And they'll be desperate,
because they want the three billion.
Then they'll become accomplices.
That's right.
Please don't be nervous.
You can say what's on your mind.
Are you, uh, really going to let me go
without any strings attached?
Uh-huh.
What, you think
we're all out to trick you?
I mean, if there is a condition,
it's that if you decide to leave now,
you're gonna be broke.
Let's hear it then.
Are you still itching to leave
after hearing what I said back there?
Uh So I thought about it, and then you
said you'd give me that money in advance?
- And if I did?
- Well, that three billion
Why don't we hide it
somewhere in the Mint?
They'd never even think
that we'd hide it here.
There's a place only I know.
I have something to ask you.
What is it?
You're leaving?
- Can you tell me your name?
- Huh?
My name?
Oh. I mean, I'm sorry,
but you know I can't tell you that.
Too bad that Tokyo is gone.
Didn't you two catch feelings?
Ah. It was just one-sided.
Just shut the fuck up.
So what are you going to do now?
So I actually have
a choice this time, I guess?
That's new.
God, how did you end up
with your job, you dumbass?
I'm sure you thought it was a smart move,
but do you really think
the cops wouldn't find it?
When all of this is over,
the Mint will become a crime scene.
And the cops are going to
search every nook and cranny.
So I'll answer you right away.
I don't need to think about it.
I'm going to stay here.
You are?
I haven't even said a word yet.
Well, if you still don't believe us,
we'll just go ahead and let you out.
No, just hold on a sec.
Tell me, what's the method
you have in mind?
Please let me know what it is.
Honestly,
I don't have any choice.
I really need to stay in here.
Well, yeah.
You saw it too.
The guys out there
are completely fucking crazy
and don't care either way
if you're in here or not.
It's Taeksu.
Oh Taeksu.
Taeksu
I don't really want the money, but I
I wanna stay.
I want to be with you, Taeksu.
I'm embarrassed to admit,
but I'm doing my job more efficiently
and happily than I have in my entire life.
Honestly, the truth is that you're far and
away the best boss that I've ever had.
My director friend, only for you,
I'll tell you this in advance. Hmm?
When everything eventually dies down,
a box will arrive at your house,
so watch out for it.
It'll come quietly, no one's gonna know.
Okay.
Time to decide now.
- Three billion?
- Or do you pick freedom?
Freedom to the left.
And money to the right.
Director.
It's this way.
Anne, what are you
What's with you people?
Didn't you say
we could leave if we wanted to?
- It's okay, I said that I would stay here.
- Huh?
Okay. For the friends who chose freedom,
you'll be able to leave
in just a moment,
the time we promised that you could.
Those who decide to stay,
will move over to the Mint's machines.
We'll have a blast printing money,
and talking about all the fun ways
you'll be spending your three billion won.
Follow me.
Hey. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Sorry, I misread the time.
Yun Misun is
going to stay.
Okay, over there.
Dad, hey, what?
Hey, wait.
Wait, hey, stop. Wait.
Dad, stop. What's wrong with you?
What's going on with you and her?
What do you mean?
Look me in the eyes and tell me the truth.
Dad.
The thing is,
I love that woman.
What?
Come on, if we get out of here,
we'll have all the money we want.
And Misun and I will take care of you
and we'll all live happy lives.
And you'll get a grandkid
Are you crazy?
That girl's our hostage! God!
Yeah, and so what?
We're in love, so what's the big problem?
In love?
This is Stockholm syndrome. Remember?
Don't be an idiot, Dad.
You don't even know
what you're talking about.
Come on, Dad, just drop it.
What do you know? I mean, seriously.
What did she say? She said
she doesn't need the money, didn't she?
I'm sure.
She said that she doesn't need money
or any of that,
because all she needs
is your love. Is that right?
Your mom said that as well.
What do you mean?
I never
told you about
how your mother and I met, did I?
Your mother was a teller
at the bank that I went to rob.
Huh?
Just like this woman,
your mom said she didn't need money,
she didn't need anything else,
that we should just run away together.
We both thought it was love too.
But then,
as soon as she gave birth to you,
she said to let her go.
Please.
Please, Son,
don't turn out like me, okay? Please!
Denver wanted to respond,
but he instinctively knew
that criticizing his father's past
was only denying his own present.
Shit! This is fucked!
So, it goes in right here.
Then over through here,
and this is where it gets printed.
Okay! We have to work even harder
to make up for lost time, right?
Hey, you there!
Don't just stand there.
You better get back to work!
Nothing's free in this world, okay?
Can't you see how hard I work?
Hustle, guys!
Come on, everyone, you need to help.
Go on, get to work!
Earn the money you'll take!
Isn't it beautiful?
You can't help but admire it, right?
Why did you stay?
I don't think it's because you need money.
You know, I'm not really sure myself.
What?
I think I just wanted to see
how everything ends up here.
You collapsed in
the street, but you're already discharged?
Don't you need to rest more?
No, it's fine.
So about the announcement
the suspects made
the fact that
they had to make a scene like that
Don't worry, we'll take care
of things here, you take a break.
I already put you on leave.
Come on, Chief.
Agh!
Fine, I'll drop it.
Hello there,
where can I take you?
Are you closing your café?
Woojin.
So you were the one
who took me to the hospital?
I'm glad you were discharged so soon.
The case about the Mint
is out of hands now.
I really missed you.
And I regret how I handled things.
With everything going on with the case,
I wasn't in my right mind.
Inside information was being leaked,
and then Captain Cha disappeared.
I'm not here to make excuses.
I just
I'm sorry for hurting you.
My feelings for you are real, though.
Even if I don't get to see you again,
I just wanted to say that.
I'll leave now.
Woojin.
No matter how perfect a plan is,
it doesn't always go
exactly as calculated.
The Professor was well aware of that.
Because plans are carried out
by imperfect human beings who are driven
by their conflicting emotions.
But what he didn't know was that
he could be driven
by the same kind of emotions as well.
Now that I'm taking some time off work,
do you want to go on a vacation?
Remember when we first met,
and you asked me
to travel by train with you?
Back then, uh,
the city you wanted to go was
Where was it again?
It was called
Mmm.
Kherson.
Ah.
It's a port city where
the Black Sea and the Dnipro River meet.
What is it that makes you want
to go there, of all places?
When I was younger,
my father first heard of it
from an acquaintance who'd visited,
and afterwards,
it became his lifelong wish
that one day, our whole family
could live there together.
Your father?
This might be the first time
I've ever heard about your family.
I don't really love to talk about it.
Partially because in his final years,
he forgot all about Kherson.
He had it pretty rough
until the day he died.
Was it dementia that your father had?
Yes.
Yes, my father had dementia too.
I guess I have to go.
So much to do
to close up the café.
So, are we going to
take that trip to Kherson?
When he first mentioned going
to Kherson, he didn't really mean it.
But in that moment, the Professor
sincerely wanted to go there with her.
Even though he had to disappear
in just a few days.
Okay.
When I close the café, let's go there.
I mean, who cares about Fuckholm
or Stockholm syndrome
or whatever that dumb bullshit is called.
What are you doing standing there?
Nothing.
Your dad told you
to leave that Misun girl, didn't he?
Wait, how how'd you know?
Your face says it all.
Do you think she's got
that Stockholm thing like my dad?
Not sure.
Whatever is going on in her mind,
whatever you both feel,
isn't it all right as long as you're sure
that you won't regret it?
Berlin.
I heard that you brought that girl out
of the concentration camp with you.
Is that true? Seoul, right?
And she followed you out too,
didn't she? Huh?
Then doesn't that mean
you two love each other?
Doesn't it?
Well, I regret it now.
Huh?
Shit
Why are you even here?
What are you talking about?
Aren't you a wealthy
Pyongyang university graduate?
You're putting on a Seoul accent,
but the way you talk gives it away.
Does it?
I guess it isn't very easy
to erase the past.
How did you end up falling in
with those guys?
That's a long story.
If you wanted,
you could have lived
a very comfortable life.
If you regret it though,
it's still not too late.
- Even now, if you'll help me
- What? You'll erase my past?
You'll give me a new life,
something like that?
Sorry, but
I'm already living a new life.
And I like it a lot.
I'll just take this.
Good luck getting out of those handcuffs.
I'm punishing you now.
Where have you been for so long?
I had to handle something.
If you're ready, shall we go?
Wait. Hold on.
Take this.
It's medicine.
Give it to Berlin, please.
And if Berlin is gonna try
to do something stupid
Don't worry, I'm going to grab him
by the neck and drag him out.
Let's go.
THE HOUSE OF PAPER IS OURS
Our lives are greater than paper!
MAKE THEM PAY!
REVEAL THE TRUTH!
We want the truth!
Tell us the truth!
MAKE THEM PAY!
REVEAL THE TRUTH!
What is going on in there?
A few questions!
We have a right to know what's going on!
I just want to see my daughter.
My daughter is trapped in there.
Stop pushing. Stop pushing.
- What's going on right now?
- What are you doing?
Why the hell is it so loud out there?
We've set a perimeter of 100 meters,
but it's difficult
to keep it under control.
It's hard to stop the reporters,
and protestors, and hostages' families.
Why do you think they publicly announced
their plan to release the hostages?
They're clearly aiming for propaganda.
Do you have any idea
how complicated things got
after the last stunt they pulled on us?
I don't know what it is
these people are up to,
but we can't let them play us anymore.
There shouldn't be
any part of this situation
that we can't actively control.
Do I make myself clear?
Yes.
Set up a tight perimeter
so that no one is closer
than 300 meters of the Mint. All right?
Right. But what about the reporters?
Start with all of the streamers
and YouTubers.
Get rid of them first.
And, uh, only the news outlets
on this list can stay.
They won't go live, and with all of them,
we've discussed the direction
of the reporting.
Yes.
Yes, my father had dementia too.
"had dementia too."
Get that!
This is a very important moment for us.
They've got more troops.
They didn't figure out our plan, did they?
No.
They're scared
of what the public will say.
This makes things
much harder for us.
It's not looking good for us out there.
There need to be a ton of people
for us to have an opening.
But they got rid of them.
Shit. We need to stop this now,
before it's too late.
They've doubled the force out there
and completely blocked any access.
Tokyo trying to come back now,
that would be a suicide mission.
Hey, I don't think we can
release the hostages.
No, we have to.
But why? Is it because of public opinion?
I already told you,
our survival depends on it.
Did the Professor say that?
Are you sure it's not part
of your crazy plan for revolution?
Berlin!
Don't make a fool of yourself.
You sound ridiculous.
What does a South Korean rich kid
know about anything?
Do you think Tokyo will give up on us
if we don't release the hostages?
She'll risk her life to come back. Why?
For all of us here.
Backing out?
That's what will get Tokyo killed.
Do you get that, you little asshole?
Hey! If anything bad happens
to Tokyo today,
I will kill you myself, got that?
Yeah, that's great.
I'm looking forward to it, kid.
Shit.
Hold on. Ahh! Ow!
You
You should leave now.
What?
Just get out of here!
Why are you saying this out of nowhere?
Leave now, and live a normal life.
Don't regret this later.
I won't regret it.
And it doesn't matter
if I regret it later or not.
The reason I decided to stay with you
is completely my choice.
Hey, get a hold of yourself.
I'm a criminal.
My dad was in and out of prison
for theft my entire life, so
I never learned how to do anything else.
I'm just an asshole
who only knows how to fight people.
Trusting a guy like me
and choosing to stay here
Does that make any sense? Huh?
Why are you doing this?
Ah shit, seriously.
Fuck! I've explained it to you,
so why can't you just take a hint
and get out of here?
Why don't you fucking get it?
Taeksu, please.
Get out of here.
I don't care about you anymore.
After you were dating that old guy,
I thought we both just wanted
some meaningless fun.
- What?
- Oh, come on.
Oh, what, are you just pretending
to be clueless because of the money?
Then I'll send you three billion won
I don't need that money.
You son of a bitch.
What are you doing?
Time's up, everyone.
Hostages who are going to leave,
gather in the lobby.
Ah shit.
Oh, goddamn it!
Tokyo.
- You hear me?
- Yes.
I'm all ready now.
To be honest, this operation
isn't going to be easy.
If you fail by any chance
I'm captured or even killed.
I know all that.
This might be too much of a burden. Sorry.
Professor.
I only have one question to ask.
Go on.
The promise you made me back then
is still good, right?
Of course it is.
Okay, fine then.
Let's go ahead and do it.
Shit.
It's okay.
As promised, with no strings attached,
we're sending 15 hostages
back into their family's arms right now.
I'm thankful for the patience
our hostages have shown,
and all of their hard work.
We are standing
hundreds of meters away
from entrance to the Mint,
but as you can see,
except for some particular media outlets,
it's impossible
to approach or ask questions.
In response
to these very difficult measures
the authorities said
The North and the South
Huh, why is it lagging? Shit.
What's wrong?
- Wait. What's wrong?
- Everything's been cut off.
I don't understand.
Hey, what's going on in there?
Hey, come here and cover that side.
- It's ridiculous!
- Excuse me?
All nearby radio stations
and networks have been shut down.
He doesn't want to talk
now that the microphone is gone, does he?
Look at their faces,
they're so flustered.
It's time to go home now.
Uh, let's go.
You all did well.
Just take it slow and watch your step.
Come out!
Go, now!
What is that?
- I think it might be an accomplice.
- What
You're just going to watch?
Fire! Fire! Fire right now!
Then what about the hostages
Sniper, sniper, what are you doing?
Shoot! Shoot, now!
- It's a sniper!
- Covering fire!
Are you crazy? Shit!
Close it!
Going! Rio, get in!
Inside!
Hey, watch out!
Close the door!
That was awesome!
Aah!
Goodness.
Wow, welcome back.
Welcome back.
Yes, welcome.
Welcome back. Come on.
This way, yes.
Come on, now.
You did pretty good, huh?
Hey, hey, did you get hurt?
I mean, you almost died just now.
But I didn't die.
Right.
Oh, babe, I missed you so much.
You did it!
Berlin.
How did you get this?
Some girl told me
that I should bring it to you.
Why
Aah.
Apologize to your dad.
Huh?
Why should I?
He's still your dad.
Yeah, no way.
I mean, in a few days,
he'll come back around
like he always does,
and says sorry and everything.
And then, once we talk,
I know that it'll all be fine.
Don't worry about it at all.
Honestly.
When it comes to my dad and I,
we're always like this.
What is this about? Hmm?
Come on, tell me what's going on?
WOOJIN WORKS AT GYEONGGI POLICE AGENCY
Mom, so, about that café owner.
Oh. That man that you've been seeing?
- Yeah.
- Of course. What, now?
Mom, think. Have you ever met that man?
I'm not sure.
About a month ago,
when he dropped you off here,
I think I saw him
for a quick second there.
Please think carefully, Mom. Okay?
I think I
I think I called you.
What? What do you mean, huh?
I think I saw
that man there.
And that's why I called you.
You mean you saw him here?
Did he come to see me? Hmm?
I don't know.
- What's wrong, Mom? Huh?
- I just don't know.
Mom, Mom, when was that?
When was that?
- Can you remember what happened?
- I don't know.
All right. All right. It's all right.
- I don't know.
- It's all right. It's all right.
One second.
PROSECUTOR LEE MINHO
CHA MOOHYUK
CHA MOOHYUK
This may not be
the best time to bring this up, but
When did you start seeing
that man, Park Sunho?
You think they targeted me?
Why were you eavesdropping on my call?
Woojin, let me
I'll only need a minute!
Hey, Sunho. What is this
Oh, Woojin, here. It's your mother.
What was on the menu
this morning?
Sandwiches.
Over here.
I think that we've found it.
Okay.
Those bastards
Okay,
that was great work, everyone.
We're We're almost there now.
Wait a minute.
- That fucker!
- Fuck!
Fucker!
Go that way!
This must be what
Captain Cha Moohyuk found that day.
"Name."
PERSONAL INFORMATION
"Song
Sunho."
SPECIAL NOTE
"Deletion of Resident Registration
due to death."
"The aforementioned person's
data was registered
in accordance with article 19
of the North Korean Refugee Act."
"He and his father, Song Minhyeok
defected from North Korea."
"His mother and brother
were reported missing
during the journey."
Cha!
Is that man okay?
Sorry.
Where's Moscow, though?
What?
I have no idea.
I'll tell him whatever this is later.
So, go on.
The summit is happening
sooner than expected.
- So they're moving it up?
- Mm-hmm.
By how much?
If the Professor's prediction is right,
we need to
get out of here by tomorrow.
