No, Kim Mu-chan!
This is what the people want!
Everyone wants him dead!
Don't move!
If you keep him alive,
there will be more victims like Na-rae!
Mu-chan, just let him die!
Mu-chan, no!
Press the shock button.
Kim Mu-chan.
You also
wanted to kill him.
No.
Don't, Mu-chan. No.
I guess
you can't turn a blind eye
and let me go this time?
You'll never be able to stop then.
Now is the only chance to go back.
No!
THE KILLING VOTE
EIGHT YEARS AGO
I'm sneaking this out for you
since you're my colleague,
but you shouldn't get involved
with Lee Yun-seong.
Instead of having something bad
happen to you, just quit the case.
Because things won't end well.
Hey, Jin-soo. My man.
This is new. You never work overtime.
Is this required to make commissioner?
Oh, come on.
Unless our junior officers help,
I can't even think about it.
I heard Mu-chan found evidence
that showed Byun had an accomplice.
Is it true or just a bluff?
I guess Lee's family is pretty powerful.
Don't get involved.
He's definitely an accomplice.
I'm not the one involved. You are.
When you took the money
without question the other day,
you knew where it was from, right?
Hey!
They don't want much.
They'll take care of it.
FOUND EVIDENCE THAT SHOWS LEE DID I
MIN JI-YOUNG
-Isn't being sent down to Jeju a bit much?
-He fabricated evidence.
-That's right.
-Such a disgrace to the police.
How can he do that?
I always knew that nutjob would mess up.
I'll be back soon,
so keep an eye on Lee Yun-seong.
He'll cause trouble again.
I appreciate it.
No can do.
I'm coming with you.
I've already sent my stuff there.
We'll go and come back together.
I understand.
Help the superintendent.
Yoon-ji, take the others
and close off the crime scene.
-Yes, sir. Let's go.
-Okay.
Lee Min-soo isn't doing well.
I'll take him to the hospital.
Let the superintendent know.
-Yes, sir.
-Close the door.
I heard they caught Inmate 0512.
Long time no see.
We'll send him back
only after we finish the investigation.
How about we share the ride?
After all, I'm in charge of him,
so I can't just let him go.
I hope you understand.
Let's go!
Let's go.
Let's go.
-Hey, you made it.
-Hey.
-Shall we start?
-Sure.
Where should we begin?
-Can you please move?
-Why is she in the way?
-Move.
-Oh, dear.
-I said move.
-She's blocking the way.
-Ji-hoon!
-She just hit me.
-What's going on?
-Move! Now!
-Ji-hoon!
-This lady's hitting people.
-Move.
-She's hitting people.
Get out of my way!
Ji-hoon!
Are you sure my son is all right?
He seems all right.
That's great.
Go straight to the hospital.
It looks like there are two cars.
I'm sure you wouldn't have put him
in the same one as Kwon.
Which car is my son in?
The one in the front or the back?
Why do you ask?
Because I'm his mom.
That's how all parents are.
You want to protect your kids
and get rid of anything
that may harm them.
Which car is my son in?
The one in the back.
Your son is in the back with me.
Hate me all you want.
But justice as a police officer
is more important to me.
You'll soon regret this.
Why is he driving so fast?
THREE MINUTES AWAY
Jin-soo.
Jin-soo!
Damn it.
Jin-soo.
Professor.
Are you okay? Can you walk?
-What the
-You bastard.
Jin-soo.
Jin-soo!
Jin-soo.
I'm on Route 57
between Gyeonggi-do and Seorae-dong.
A truck hit a police van,
and three people are injured.
One's severely injured. Please hurry.
Professor, don't kill me.
You know what Na-rae said before she died?
She cried and said
she wanted to go to her dad.
I told her to stop crying,
but she kept saying,
"I miss my dad. Let me go to my dad."
I still remember her crying her lungs out.
Then,
I happened to see a jump rope.
I took that,
put it around her neck, and
Then, I really wanted to know
what it would feel like to stab her.
So I stabbed her once, twice,
three times,
four times
You got the 13th one wrong.
Stop. That's enough.
Seok-joo!
Professor.
We have to go.
It's dangerous, Professor.
We have to go.
Professor!
-I need backup. Gaetal--
-There was a car crash.
It was both of our vans.
-A crash?
-Jin-soo's seriously injured,
and the superintendent's hurt too.
No one's there to help. You should go.
There's one more Gaetal.
-I'm chasing him now--
-Lee Min-soo's dead and Kwon fled.
Go to the scene of the crash first.
Have your wound treated first.
I can't leave
-Jin-soo alone.
-Sir!
Excuse me, he's also injured.
He needs to be treated.
Sir, are you okay?
Excuse me. Take a deep breath.
One second.
Stop them.
-Stop.
-Move.
It's too dangerous.
-You can't be here.
-I said move.
Yun-seong
My son
Get your hands off him.
This can't be Yun-seong.
Ma'am.
Yun-seong.
Yun-seong
Yun-seong.
My son.
No.
Yun-seong.
Yun-seong!
Yun-seong, no!
Yun-seong.
Yun-seong!
Yun-seong!
Yun-seong!
Yun-seong!
Last night, the country was shaken
by a hostage situation and tragic deaths.
The nightmare began right here,
where two families lived
across the street from each other.
The son of one family
killed the daughter of the other,
and the girl's father took
his revenge against the son.
The public witnessed
and were complicit in this act.
Popularly known as Gaetal,
Kwon created the Killing Vote.
The police and prosecutors view
Kwon and his accomplices' actions
as personal revenge or vigilantism,
but what do you think?
The targets of the Killing Vote
were shameless individuals
who used money and power
to hide and downplay their crimes.
Rather than personal revenge,
perhaps Gaetal gave a remedy to a society
suffering from a lack of justice.
You can't openly support
a criminal on the news.
Give it a few days.
We have a big one left.
Are we really done with Min Ji-young now?
She won't be coming back anymore.
I'll go prepare for the big one now.
Jerk.
We can't let Chae do this anymore.
She's dangerous. Get rid of her.
Dad.
Dad.
I heard the truck driver said
he dozed off. Maybe he was drunk.
Someone hired him.
He didn't have a clear destination,
and he has priors.
We're checking his transaction records,
so we'll soon know
-who made him do it.
-Isn't it obvious?
Who fled after accomplishing
his goal of killing Lee?
It can only be Kwon Seok-joo.
This person knew Lee
would be passing through that area.
It's not Kwon Seok-joo.
Then who? Jin-soo has no enemies.
How did Min find that area?
It's as if she knew our route.
Don't be absurd.
You think she'd kill her own
Even though Jin-soo
could've been assigned to Seoul,
he's been so adamant
about following you around the country.
Was it really out of loyalty?
I trust him.
What happened?
DEATH PENALTY: 30 YEARS IN PRISON
I'M SO HAPPY TO GE
A BIG BROTHER. THANK YOU!
That's a relief. We'll join you
after collecting the data.
Okay, bye.
Hey, Jjoo.
Jin-soo's surgery went well.
He's still unconscious though.
Why did he have to hurt his head?
-Let's go check on him tonight.
-Sure.
I got his browsing history
and IP addresses.
He was connecting
to VPN locations all over the world.
That little brat has some skills.
He seemed pretty close with Min.
I'm sure she didn't know this
about him, but what did she say?
He's not the type to let her know.
He's serious and quiet.
He's a good kid.
Are you all right?
We're all fine.
I'm glad you're okay too.
I saw the news.
Lee Min-soo is dead.
I guess our job is done now.
Yes.
This is how things turned out in the end.
Speaking of which
I'll stick to the plan. See you soon.
I got the essentials first.
But you'll need a kettle
to cook the instant noodles.
I'll bring one from home.
Thanks.
I'll manage by myself now. You should go.
We can't have people
mistakenly believe your my accomplice.
I've killed people too.
What?
To be honest, I pressed yes
for all the Killing Votes.
That's aiding and abetting murder, right?
I did what you did, so there's no mistake.
I'm not kidding.
I can't put you in danger.
I'm not kidding either.
I'm not doing this because I like you.
If you're caught as Gaetal,
no one will try to understand you.
Until everyone is ready to hear
why you did what you did,
I'll be by your side.
Let's wait together.
So
you can help me understand first.
Why did you become Gaetal?
In this very apartment,
an armed robber
stabbed my parents.
No matter how much I said
who the robber was,
no one believed me.
Just because I was only six.
When I ended up completely alone,
Na-rae
and my father took me in.
That's why I became Gaetal.
Lee Min-soo
killed my sister, Na-rae.
He destroyed
my only hope.
Wait.
-Please move aside.
-What are you doing?
Hey!
Darn it.
Are guards hired
for their knife skills here?
We'd like your cooperation
in our investigation of Park.
How long has he known Kwon for?
Officer Park hated all the inmates.
He said we were wasting
our tax money on caring for criminals.
He said they were leeches
who'd suck us dry until we died.
DECEMBER 2016
EMPLOYED AT SECURITY DIVISION
So I can't believe he's helping Kwon.
Just a nice big sum. No more, no less.
Let me check your ID.
I heard they caught Inmate 0512.
Come to think of it, Park was in charge
of transferring Kwon to this prison too.
Above all else,
I am enraged by the fact
that devils who were deemed innocent
still exist in this country.
All of you who took the killer's side
and not the victim's
are all guilty! You all are!
Park Chul-min must've heard
Kwon addressing the court.
I found a bunch of names here
written with numbers.
I think these are inmates.
CHOI JIN-SOO
Work with Team Two to see
if any properties owned by the inmates
shows someone living there.
Use of electricity,
water, internet, gas
-Everything.
-Yes, sir.
It seems the professor's picnic is over.
You need police protection.
That's the best way to save your son.
So this is why we were told
to check Jin-soo's phone.
You already knew about this, right?
You knew our information
was leaking out too.
The timing of Lee Min-soo
turning himself in was so odd.
The only people who had
that video were you, me,
and Jin-soo.
What do we do now?
Should we report this?
Jin-soo wouldn't screw me over like this.
Is that it? There's nothing else?
Are you sure my son is all right?
He seems all right.
That's great. Go straight to the hospital.
Which car is my son in?
The one in the front or the back?
Why do you ask?
That's how all parents are.
You want to get rid of anything
that may harm them.
The one in the back.
Your son is in the back with me.
He must have kept all the call records
so we could arrest Min.
Jin-soo
wanted to help you
and made this huge sacrifice.
-Sir.
-Sir.
What's with him?
I need to tell him
I'm totally stuck on this case.
-What is it now?
-Well
The commissioner gave a direct order
WANTED: KILLING VOTE MURDER SUSPECTS
to put out an APB on Kim Ji-hoon.
What?
How can you put an APB
on a kid when he hasn't been charged?
The police suspect the accomplice
of Kwon, the one behind the Killing Vote,
is Kim Ji-hoon, a senior at Seorae High.
Kim is suspected
of murder, aiding and abetting,
and violations of the Information
and Communications Act.
If you know about his whereabouts
or have seen him,
please contact the nearest police station.
This is a draft
of tomorrow's morning paper.
SAMDO STEEL'S STANCE
ON CONTROVERSIAL KILLING VOTE
OUR COMPANY HAS NO ASSOCIATION WITH LEE
Our son is dead.
Where's my husband?
You can't come in. Ms. Min isn't home!
I was taking out the trash and
I can't hold his funeral yet.
The police won't send my son back home.
You should go see him yourself.
We can put you in the same cell.
Right.
I guess you're not used
to looking at corpses for a long time.
Shut up before I tear your mouth off.
You killed my son.
You and Kwon Seok-joo.
You did it.
Then, why did you hit
the car in the front
and not the one in the back?
You dare to attack the police?
Only cops can fight with other cops.
We hate it when others mess with us.
You made a mistake.
Tell my lawyer to file a lawsuit
against the police for damages.
No, against the whole country.
I'm going to hunt down
every single person
who had a hand in killing my son.
You pieces of scum.
You won't last long.
Do whatever you want
to help you stay sane.
But it doesn't change the fact
that you killed your son.
You!
By the way
never mess with Jin-soo ever again.
I'm much crazier than I look.
I could put you in a coffin
right next to your son's.
I heard you've been refusing to eat.
We have a long way to go.
-You're Ji-hoon's grandma.
-Don't call me that.
We don't share a single drop of blood.
I took him in to deceive people.
We were actually strangers.
We've never even had
a proper meal together.
And he didn't even know what I was doing.
A sedative detected in Bae's blood, right?
I got that from the hospital.
I also gave Uhm the heart attack.
Although I failed because of Lee,
I even poisoned
the inmates' water to kill them all.
I've committed all sorts of crimes.
Go and tell them it was all me.
So you knew Ji-hoon
was put on the wanted list.
Even if you take the blame for everything,
it won't change the fact
that Ji-hoon was involved.
But if you cooperate
with our investigation now,
your charges may be reduced.
I lost faith in this country's
justice system a long time ago.
Don't try to convince me.
I also
lost my parents at a young age
and wanted to get revenge for a while.
When my sister started
to get bullied at school, it drove me mad.
I went around filled with rage,
wanting to set places on fire.
I understand you and Ji-hoon both.
However,
it's time to trust the police now
for Ji-hoon's sake.
Ji-hoon is such a strong kid.
He may be shy but he expresses
his thoughts, and he's determined.
He doesn't yield to violence either.
That's why my sister likes him.
She has high standards for men.
Now that I'm raising a teenager,
I realized living with them
is a hard task.
Every day is a challenge.
You raised him well.
Ji-hoon said
you became his real family.
So,
please give me and the police
please give us the chance
to protect Ji-hoon
before it's too late.
JARANG CONVENIENCE STORE
WANTED: KILLING VOTE MURDER SUSPECTS
What are you doing?
Who's that?
Give me one of those. I need to wake up.
Here. Let's eat this and focus.
This is a crucial moment.
Keep your eyes open.
We can't miss a thing.
So what's going on? Tell me.
They're suing all of us
for Lee Min-soo's death.
Darn it.
-What?
-Yeah.
COMPLAIN
He was a suspect
who hadn't been tried yet.
And the police helplessly let him
get kidnapped and receive death threats.
So you'll have to take
responsibility for his death.
What's the real reason for doing this?
What are you trying to do
after disturbing our team?
Assemblywoman Min
wants a genuine apology
and proper compensation from the police.
That is all.
Yoon-ji, our guest is leaving.
Escort her to the exit
so she won't wander off.
Yes, sir.
Follow me. This way.
-Should I dip into my savings?
-Now's not the time for that.
You've never been sued.
You can lose everything.
Do you own a house?
Online banking's better for a loan.
They're using the lawsuit to stall
so they can find a scapegoat.
They're afraid people will find out
they hired the truck driver.
Min Ji-young has always acted like this.
Any trace of Kwon Seok-joo?
His car was found 2km
from the scene of the accident.
We're checking all the CCTV nearby.
But he took the dashcam memory card.
What about Ji-hoon?
They must be in touch.
-Anything from your sister?
-Well
There's actually something
about her that bothers me.
I checked earlier, and there was
something suspicious in Min's movements.
HOME, SCHOOL, CONVENIENCE STORE, APARTMEN
KIM JI-HOON
The number you have dialed is
Ji-hoon is on the wanted list now.
Do you know where he could be?
What's her problem?
Ji-hoon!
Mister?
Hyun, were you following me?
How could you?
Hey. How could you lie to me?
You've lost your mind.
Cops can't come in
and search a house like this.
Quiet, you idiot.
Where's your friend?
Is he gone or coming back?
He's not here?
I don't know. Some kids said
they saw him here so I came.
My phone. Give it back.
Give me back my phone. Move, mister!
Darn it. That's not yours.
I'll call the cops on you both
for trespassing, assault, and theft.
Suit yourself. Gosh, such a know-it-all.
It's turned off.
-Can we track this number?
-We'll have to try.
Give me my phone!
Move, mister. Get out of the way.
If you're truly his friend,
you should think of protecting him
instead of hiding him.
Turning himself in is the best thing
Ji-hoon can do for his own safety, okay?
Min.
I'll be watching you.
No more funny business.
Go home!
Don't come home. The cops are here.
Remember when we came here before?
Of course.
It was our first trip
after we became family.
She said when she grew up,
we should come back here
and go fishing because you like to fish.
I'm glad we scattered
her ashes in the sea.
Na-rae can travel around the world now.
She'll brag so much when we meet again.
You should leave too.
I was consumed by anger
and made you wear that mask too.
I felt sorry every day.
All I have left to do now
is to turn myself in.
Don't tell anyone where you're going.
Not even me.
And just go
as soon as possible.
Make a new family and forget about us.
I don't want that.
I'll turn myself in too.
I won't leave you again.
I'll negotiate with Mu-chan
to remove you from the APB.
Min Ji-young might try to harm you,
so until you're safe, stay away from here.
When I'm released,
I'll come find you.
No matter where you are,
I'll come find you.
Don't look for me. Just send me an email.
You don't have to say
where you are. I'll figure it out.
Okay.
There are more people here now.
Here.
A fake ID and passport.
I made a lot of friends
with skills while working in prisons.
Don't worry. They assured me
they're like the real ones.
The flight ticket is real.
Thank you, Number Three.
It's nice to meet you in person.
You're very talented.
You'll be all right wherever you go.
Back then,
I was too late
to pick up Na-rae,
so I missed her.
Do you resent me for that?
Not even once.
Not even once have I resented you, my son.
So you didn't tell him?
Well, what can we do?
Individuals are bound to be crushed
by the wheel of history.
PROPERTIES OF INMATES
These two show signs of being lived in?
Yes. They're still serving time,
so the houses are supposed to be empty,
but water and electricity had been used.
-Any relationship with Kwon?
-Yoo regarded him like a cult leader.
And Heo only exchanged greetings with him.
I'm suspecting Heo.
Ownership was transferred
while he was incarcerated.
I reviewed the ownership records
for the past five years,
and the first owner
was Park Chul-min's father.
Park Chul-min?
-Are you sure?
-Yes, sir.
There were a few owners afterwards,
but it was originally Park's home.
Then, it's definitely him. Let's go.
Well done, Yoon-ji.
Thank you, sir.
We know where Kwon's hiding.
Hello, sir.
Sir, the director's asking for me.
-Let's go.
-Yes, sir.
Park's parents invested
in some bad derivatives
and committed suicide
after going bankrupt.
Park joined the victims' group for them.
He was so shocked
he even stopped going to church.
He helped Kwon
because he was angry at the world.
In any case, keep looking for Ji-hoon.
He's a teenager.
He couldn't have gone far.
Yes, sir.
You'll catch Kwon
alive, right?
Seorae High's first wanted criminal?
-Who's Kim Ji-hoon?
-Gaetal's from our school. Unbelievable.
-No joke.
-It's a big reward. Should I catch him?
Hello?
Min.
Ji-hoon? Is that you?
Where are you?
Hello?
Hello? Where are you?
In front of your place.
You're the only person I can go to now.
Who are you?
Let go of me!
Is everything ready?
-How's it going?
-We're ready.
You may begin now.
You should've turned her phone off.
It's Kim Mu-chan.
Answer it.
It's me.
You know the APB is out on Kwon now.
Of course, I do.
If you know how to get in touch, tell me.
I don't.
You met Kwon recently
and even let that fugitive appear on TV.
But you really don't know?
Spill it before things get worse.
What's Kwon Seok-joo's next move?
I don't know. Don't ever call me again.
Also, tell Hyun I can't come
to her birthday party.
I suddenly have a business trip--
Don't worry.
I'll give it back when you leave.
You'll really let me go?
I'm an anchor on network TV.
You'll get in trouble for this.
Do you think I care
about something like that now?
You're not going to killing me, are you?
I could catch Kwon
thanks to you, so why would I?
Your show used the money
I gave you to sentence my son to death,
but I'm not a thug, you know.
Just watch
and see how those murderers end up.
CHAE DO-HEE'S KILLING VOTE SPECIAL
I've got to go.
Go?
Go where?
I'll let you know later.
I don't know when,
but I'll definitely let you know.
Wait. My sister isn't that narrow-minded.
She likes you.
Let's talk with her.
You're a minor, and you only helped.
They said you won't be punished harshly.
I read that turning yourself in
can help you later in court.
I'm not going to turn myself in.
My father will turn himself in first
and reveal the crimes
Lee Min-soo and Min Ji-young committed.
And I promised him
I'd hide until it's over.
Ji-hoon. Actually, I
Hello, my fellow citizens.
The Killing Vote will now begin.
First, I'd like to apologize
for using the network's online forum
instead of the smartphone app
for the vote.
Start it now.
THE KILLING VOTE FORUM
YES, NO
REWARD UP TO 100 MILLION WON
FOR GAETAL'S WHEREABOUTS
My name is Kwon Seok-joo.
I was once a philosophy of law professor
at the best university in Korea.
Darn it.
It's from Gaetal's hideout.
And it's definitely recorded.
It's being transmitted from
I planned the Killing Vote
Broadcast straight from the network?
They're crazy.
I'm the one who you call Gaetal.
Now, I'm going to put myself up for vote.
For the crime
of murder.
FATHER
The phone is turned off
Darn it.
VIEWERS' FORUM
KILLING VOTE FOR GAETAL, YES OR NO?
COMMENTS
NUMBER THREE
Please pick up.
I must speak with my father. Please.
NUMBER ONE
You're with my father, right?
Put him on the phone.
That'll be difficult.
He's about to do something important.
He's going to kill himself.
We must stop him.
So you do know.
Stop bothering him.
You shouldn't stop someone
who wants to leave.
That's nonsense!
You're not just going to
let him do it, are you?
I am.
To change this unfair world,
there needs to be bloodshed.
That's why the Professor
is sacrificing himself.
So all sinners on this earth
can get their just punishments.
But to let mere human emotion
get in the way of this?
-I guess you're still a kid.
-Number Three.
Be proud of your father.
I envy you.
Number Three!
I want you to cast your votes
as you did before.
You won't need to verify your names,
and you can vote more than once.
I just want you
to understand my determination.
Ji-hoon is at our house. Come now.
-The number you
-Darn it.
-Hyun is coming.
-Min!
Yes! I betrayed you.
Running away isn't easy.
Just turn yourself in.
I can't let my father die
just so I can live. Could you?
I'll convince my father
and we'll both turn ourselves in.
I'll come with you.
If you're with me,
the cops won't find you.
Where's the place?
Where is it?
There's something Ji-hoon has to do.
He'll turn himself in
as soon as it's done. Sorry.
The phone is turned off
GPS CONNECTION ERROR
Min ran off somewhere else.
What am I going to do with her?
I know. What do we do?
What do we do
with this crazy and incredible situation?
Is the server overloaded? But why?
What's the program?
It looks like a video streaming program.
Where is this coming from?
For crying out loud.
We have cameras and sensors
set up all around the house.
We're checking now for weapons.
People had been coming by
with daily necessities for a while.
I checked the photos,
and they were Park and Jung for sure.
-What about Kwon Seok-joo?
-He hasn't been confirmed yet.
The fact that Jung was here
means there could be a bomb.
-Check that.
-Yes, sir.
I used to believe
that everyone was equal before the law.
But when my daughter
became the victim of a ruthless crime,
I realized laws
and justice in this country
were incredibly weak.
So I created the Killing Vote.
While hiding behind this mask,
I've been trying to convey one message.
Fair and rational justice.
Execution of the law
that we all can understand.
JI-HOON'S GAETAL STREAMING
Hello, my fellow citizens.
I'm Gaetal Number One.
I programmed and opened the Killing Vote.
Ji-hoon started streaming as Gaetal.
-What?
-Sir.
Check this out.
Everyone, please vote "No"
for the current Killing Vote.
-No, stop voting.
-We're just playing around.
Professor Kwon must not be killed.
I think Ji-hoon
is heading there. I'll follow him.
Darn it.
GAETAL'S STREAMING
Darn it.
Let's get him first. Up the reward.
Yes, ma'am.
Although I do not have any regrets
or shame about my method,
the fact is I also committed
and aided in murder just as they did.
Therefore, I'm leaving the decision
of my execution in your hands.
Now I get why Kwon
put himself up for vote.
He's going to kill himself after the vote.
KILL HIM ALREADY
SUDDENLY GAETAL NUMBER ONE?
WHAT'S GOING ON?
SHOULD I VOTE OR NOT?
KWON'S GAETAL?
JUST KILL HIM
Excuse me. Sorry.
Sorry.
You can't be serious.
I'll tell you why he created the vote
and put himself up for it.
-Taxi!
-Please hear me out.
Please.
Let's go.
Move!
Change of plans.
We're negotiating with Kwon.
-I'll do it myself.
-What? Negotiate?
We found booby traps
inside the wall and at the entrance.
Kwon and Park.
You're surrounded.
Darn it.
When his daughter
was murdered eight years ago,
the cops knew
Lee Min-soo was the accomplice.
Go that way. Quick, this way!
The police are watching
every move you make.
Turn yourselves in.
They're already here.
Are you going to let it
end like this? Professor.
To make you believe me,
I should reveal who I am.
-Hey.
-My name is Kim Ji-hoon.
Eight years ago,
Professor Kwon was going to adopt me.
And Na-rae was my precious sister.
Move!
Come on out!
Go that way.
Darn it.
EYEWITNESS ACCOUNTS OF JI-HOON
Everyone's gone crazy.
Our family's happiness was destroyed
by the murderers Lee Min-soo
and Byun Woo-taek.
The one who used her money
and power to conceal their crimes
was Assemblywoman Min Ji-young.
And
a group of corrupt cops
and prosecutors were bribed by Min.
Ji-hoon's using Lee's computer
to stream through our agency's server.
I'll catch up with him soon,
so hang in there.
You said they're coming here.
What's the problem?
Min's offered a bounty on his head.
If they catch him, he'll be in danger.
Secure those two as fast as you can.
Just let us catch you already.
Darn it.
Excuse me. Where's the bus terminal?
-I think it's that way.
-Thank you.
My father's going to take his own life.
But why does he have to?
Those who destroyed our happiness
never paid for what they did.
Why is it always
the righteous people
who are strict with themselves?
I'm still not used to
seeing myself with the mask on.
This wasn't how I imagined myself
as a 19-year-old.
I want you to tell me.
Once happiness is taken away,
can it ever be regained?
We found him.
Just let us catch you, man.
-Just stay there.
-Jo-dan.
I'll find him.
Right.
You think you're Gaetal, you bastard?
Die, you bastard.
Seok-joo!
Hey! What are you doing?
Min. Ji-hoon.
Hyun!
Die, you bastard!
The meat's getting cold by the minute.
We can't keep silent forever.
I'll be brave and go first.
Is hierarchy not important to you?
Tasty.
Let's dig in.
-That one wasn't fully cooked yet.
-All right.
We're on the same team now,
so let's come together.
Let's have a drink
before the superintendent comes.
-Cheers!
-Cheers!
-Cheers.
-We don't just drink like that.
Right?
-It's her.
-Two assaults on duty.
I assaulted suspects
with my world-class kicks.
Let's go!
There it goes!
-Lieutenant Joo!
-Jjoo!
-Lieutenant Joo!
-Come on, Jjoo!
Yes, sir! I'm the whistleblower!
-Whistleblower.
-Whistleblower!
-Whistleblower!
-Whistleblower!
-Hyun?
-Whistleblower!
My sister is here!
Min!
Hey, my troublemaker.
And my apprentice is here too!
She's here because she couldn't reach you.
Sir, Ji-hoon has amazing computer skills.
He's awesome.
I'll take him to the Cyber Bureau.
-No. We'll become reporters.
-No, he's mine.
-Stop it.
-I'll mentor him.
Everyone, the superintendent is here!
-Superintendent!
-Superintendent!
-Cheers!
-Cheers!
Can you believe this?
This is the state of the Korean police.
No, it's not!
It's not like I hit him a lot.
I like this though.
Ji-hoon, my apprentice!
I'll mentor you. Come here.
Don't you dare.
If you drink, you're dead meat.

THE KILLING VOTE
Kwon and Park. You're surrounded.
They're already here.
Turn yourselves in.
-Kill them.
-I said kill him!
-You need to make a decision.
-Let's stop.
Min's offered a bounty on his head.
Hyun!
Stick to the plan.
Do you think he'll be okay then?
Die, you bastard!
I don't regret what I did.

Don't move!
If you keep him alive,
there will be more victims like Na-rae!
Mu-chan, just let him die!
Mu-chan, no!
Press the shock button.
Kim Mu-chan.
You also

No.

No!
THE KILLING VOTE
EIGHT YEARS AGO
I'm sneaking this out for you
since you're my colleague,
but you shouldn't get involved
with Lee Yun-seong.
Instead of having something bad
happen to you, just quit the case.
Because things won't end well.
Hey, Jin-soo. My man.
This is new. You never work overtime.
Is this required to make commissioner?
Oh, come on.
Unless our junior officers help,
I can't even think about it.
I heard Mu-chan found evidence
that showed Byun had an accomplice.
Is it true or just a bluff?
I guess Lee's family is pretty powerful.
Don't get involved.
He's definitely an accomplice.
I'm not the one involved. You are.
When you took the money
without question the other day,
you knew where it was from, right?
Hey!
They don't want much.
They'll take care of it.
FOUND EVIDENCE THAT SHOWS LEE DID I
MIN JI-YOUNG
-Isn't being sent down to Jeju a bit much?
-He fabricated evidence.
-That's right.
-Such a disgrace to the police.
How can he do that?
I always knew that nutjob would mess up.
I'll be back soon,
so keep an eye on Lee Yun-seong.
He'll cause trouble again.
I appreciate it.
No can do.
I'm coming with you.
I've already sent my stuff there.
We'll go and come back together.
I understand.
Help the superintendent.
Yoon-ji, take the others
and close off the crime scene.
-Yes, sir. Let's go.
-Okay.
Lee Min-soo isn't doing well.
I'll take him to the hospital.
Let the superintendent know.
-Yes, sir.
-Close the door.
I heard they caught Inmate 0512.
Long time no see.
We'll send him back
only after we finish the investigation.
How about we share the ride?
After all, I'm in charge of him,
so I can't just let him go.
I hope you understand.
Let's go!
Let's go.
Let's go.
-Hey, you made it.
-Hey.
-Shall we start?
-Sure.
Where should we begin?
-Can you please move?
-Why is she in the way?
-Move.
-Oh, dear.
-I said move.
-She's blocking the way.
-Ji-hoon!
-She just hit me.
-What's going on?
-Move! Now!
-Ji-hoon!
-This lady's hitting people.
-Move.
-She's hitting people.
Get out of my way!
Ji-hoon!
Are you sure my son is all right?
He seems all right.
That's great.
Go straight to the hospital.
It looks like there are two cars.
I'm sure you wouldn't have put him
in the same one as Kwon.
Which car is my son in?
The one in the front or the back?
Why do you ask?
Because I'm his mom.
That's how all parents are.
You want to protect your kids
and get rid of anything
that may harm them.
Which car is my son in?
The one in the back.
Your son is in the back with me.
Hate me all you want.
But justice as a police officer
is more important to me.
You'll soon regret this.
Why is he driving so fast?
THREE MINUTES AWAY
Jin-soo.
Jin-soo!
Damn it.
Jin-soo.
Professor.
Are you okay? Can you walk?
-What the
-You bastard.
Jin-soo.
Jin-soo!
Jin-soo.
I'm on Route 57
between Gyeonggi-do and Seorae-dong.
A truck hit a police van,
and three people are injured.
One's severely injured. Please hurry.
Professor, don't kill me.
You know what Na-rae said before she died?
She cried and said
she wanted to go to her dad.
I told her to stop crying,
but she kept saying,
"I miss my dad. Let me go to my dad."
I still remember her crying her lungs out.
Then,
I happened to see a jump rope.
I took that,
put it around her neck, and
Then, I really wanted to know
what it would feel like to stab her.
So I stabbed her once, twice,
three times,
four times
You got the 13th one wrong.
Stop. That's enough.
Seok-joo!
Professor.
We have to go.
It's dangerous, Professor.
We have to go.
Professor!
-I need backup. Gaetal--
-There was a car crash.
It was both of our vans.
-A crash?
-Jin-soo's seriously injured,
and the superintendent's hurt too.
No one's there to help. You should go.
There's one more Gaetal.
-I'm chasing him now--
-Lee Min-soo's dead and Kwon fled.
Go to the scene of the crash first.
Have your wound treated first.
I can't leave
-Jin-soo alone.
-Sir!
Excuse me, he's also injured.
He needs to be treated.
Sir, are you okay?
Excuse me. Take a deep breath.
One second.
Stop them.
-Stop.
-Move.
It's too dangerous.
-You can't be here.
-I said move.
Yun-seong
My son
Get your hands off him.
This can't be Yun-seong.
Ma'am.
Yun-seong.
Yun-seong
Yun-seong.
My son.
No.
Yun-seong.
Yun-seong!
Yun-seong, no!
Yun-seong.
Yun-seong!
Yun-seong!
Yun-seong!
Yun-seong!
Last night, the country was shaken
by a hostage situation and tragic deaths.
The nightmare began right here,
where two families lived
across the street from each other.
The son of one family
killed the daughter of the other,
and the girl's father took
his revenge against the son.
The public witnessed
and were complicit in this act.
Popularly known as Gaetal,
Kwon created the Killing Vote.
The police and prosecutors view
Kwon and his accomplices' actions
as personal revenge or vigilantism,
but what do you think?
The targets of the Killing Vote
were shameless individuals
who used money and power
to hide and downplay their crimes.
Rather than personal revenge,
perhaps Gaetal gave a remedy to a society
suffering from a lack of justice.
You can't openly support
a criminal on the news.
Give it a few days.
We have a big one left.
Are we really done with Min Ji-young now?
She won't be coming back anymore.
I'll go prepare for the big one now.
Jerk.
We can't let Chae do this anymore.
She's dangerous. Get rid of her.
Dad.
Dad.
I heard the truck driver said
he dozed off. Maybe he was drunk.
Someone hired him.
He didn't have a clear destination,
and he has priors.
We're checking his transaction records,
so we'll soon know
-who made him do it.
-Isn't it obvious?
Who fled after accomplishing
his goal of killing Lee?
It can only be Kwon Seok-joo.
This person knew Lee
would be passing through that area.
It's not Kwon Seok-joo.
Then who? Jin-soo has no enemies.
How did Min find that area?
It's as if she knew our route.
Don't be absurd.
You think she'd kill her own
Even though Jin-soo
could've been assigned to Seoul,
he's been so adamant
about following you around the country.
Was it really out of loyalty?
I trust him.
What happened?
DEATH PENALTY: 30 YEARS IN PRISON
I'M SO HAPPY TO GE
A BIG BROTHER. THANK YOU!
That's a relief. We'll join you
after collecting the data.
Okay, bye.
Hey, Jjoo.
Jin-soo's surgery went well.
He's still unconscious though.
Why did he have to hurt his head?
-Let's go check on him tonight.
-Sure.
I got his browsing history
and IP addresses.
He was connecting
to VPN locations all over the world.
That little brat has some skills.
He seemed pretty close with Min.
I'm sure she didn't know this
about him, but what did she say?
He's not the type to let her know.
He's serious and quiet.
He's a good kid.
Are you all right?
We're all fine.
I'm glad you're okay too.
I saw the news.
Lee Min-soo is dead.
I guess our job is done now.
Yes.
This is how things turned out in the end.
Speaking of which
I'll stick to the plan. See you soon.
I got the essentials first.
But you'll need a kettle
to cook the instant noodles.
I'll bring one from home.
Thanks.
I'll manage by myself now. You should go.
We can't have people
mistakenly believe your my accomplice.
I've killed people too.
What?
To be honest, I pressed yes
for all the Killing Votes.
That's aiding and abetting murder, right?
I did what you did, so there's no mistake.
I'm not kidding.
I can't put you in danger.
I'm not kidding either.
I'm not doing this because I like you.
If you're caught as Gaetal,
no one will try to understand you.
Until everyone is ready to hear
why you did what you did,
I'll be by your side.
Let's wait together.
So
you can help me understand first.
Why did you become Gaetal?
In this very apartment,
an armed robber
stabbed my parents.
No matter how much I said
who the robber was,
no one believed me.
Just because I was only six.
When I ended up completely alone,
Na-rae
and my father took me in.
That's why I became Gaetal.
Lee Min-soo
killed my sister, Na-rae.
He destroyed
my only hope.
Wait.
-Please move aside.
-What are you doing?
Hey!
Darn it.
Are guards hired
for their knife skills here?
We'd like your cooperation
in our investigation of Park.
How long has he known Kwon for?
Officer Park hated all the inmates.
He said we were wasting
our tax money on caring for criminals.
He said they were leeches
who'd suck us dry until we died.
DECEMBER 2016
EMPLOYED AT SECURITY DIVISION
So I can't believe he's helping Kwon.
Just a nice big sum. No more, no less.
Let me check your ID.
I heard they caught Inmate 0512.
Come to think of it, Park was in charge
of transferring Kwon to this prison too.
Above all else,
I am enraged by the fact
that devils who were deemed innocent
still exist in this country.
All of you who took the killer's side
and not the victim's
are all guilty! You all are!
Park Chul-min must've heard
Kwon addressing the court.
I found a bunch of names here
written with numbers.
I think these are inmates.
CHOI JIN-SOO
Work with Team Two to see
if any properties owned by the inmates
shows someone living there.
Use of electricity,
water, internet, gas
-Everything.
-Yes, sir.
It seems the professor's picnic is over.
You need police protection.
That's the best way to save your son.
So this is why we were told
to check Jin-soo's phone.
You already knew about this, right?
You knew our information
was leaking out too.
The timing of Lee Min-soo
turning himself in was so odd.
The only people who had
that video were you, me,
and Jin-soo.
What do we do now?
Should we report this?
Jin-soo wouldn't screw me over like this.
Is that it? There's nothing else?
Are you sure my son is all right?
He seems all right.
That's great. Go straight to the hospital.
Which car is my son in?
The one in the front or the back?
Why do you ask?
That's how all parents are.
You want to get rid of anything
that may harm them.
The one in the back.
Your son is in the back with me.
He must have kept all the call records
so we could arrest Min.
Jin-soo
wanted to help you
and made this huge sacrifice.
-Sir.
-Sir.
What's with him?
I need to tell him
I'm totally stuck on this case.
-What is it now?
-Well
The commissioner gave a direct order
WANTED: KILLING VOTE MURDER SUSPECTS
to put out an APB on Kim Ji-hoon.
What?
How can you put an APB
on a kid when he hasn't been charged?
The police suspect the accomplice
of Kwon, the one behind the Killing Vote,
is Kim Ji-hoon, a senior at Seorae High.
Kim is suspected
of murder, aiding and abetting,
and violations of the Information
and Communications Act.
If you know about his whereabouts
or have seen him,
please contact the nearest police station.
This is a draft
of tomorrow's morning paper.
SAMDO STEEL'S STANCE
ON CONTROVERSIAL KILLING VOTE
OUR COMPANY HAS NO ASSOCIATION WITH LEE
Our son is dead.
Where's my husband?
You can't come in. Ms. Min isn't home!
I was taking out the trash and
I can't hold his funeral yet.
The police won't send my son back home.
You should go see him yourself.
We can put you in the same cell.
Right.
I guess you're not used
to looking at corpses for a long time.
Shut up before I tear your mouth off.
You killed my son.
You and Kwon Seok-joo.
You did it.
Then, why did you hit
the car in the front
and not the one in the back?
You dare to attack the police?
Only cops can fight with other cops.
We hate it when others mess with us.
You made a mistake.
Tell my lawyer to file a lawsuit
against the police for damages.
No, against the whole country.
I'm going to hunt down
every single person
who had a hand in killing my son.
You pieces of scum.
You won't last long.
Do whatever you want
to help you stay sane.
But it doesn't change the fact
that you killed your son.
You!
By the way
never mess with Jin-soo ever again.
I'm much crazier than I look.
I could put you in a coffin
right next to your son's.
I heard you've been refusing to eat.
We have a long way to go.
-You're Ji-hoon's grandma.
-Don't call me that.
We don't share a single drop of blood.
I took him in to deceive people.
We were actually strangers.
We've never even had
a proper meal together.
And he didn't even know what I was doing.
A sedative detected in Bae's blood, right?
I got that from the hospital.
I also gave Uhm the heart attack.
Although I failed because of Lee,
I even poisoned
the inmates' water to kill them all.
I've committed all sorts of crimes.
Go and tell them it was all me.
So you knew Ji-hoon
was put on the wanted list.
Even if you take the blame for everything,
it won't change the fact
that Ji-hoon was involved.
But if you cooperate
with our investigation now,
your charges may be reduced.
I lost faith in this country's
justice system a long time ago.
Don't try to convince me.
I also
lost my parents at a young age
and wanted to get revenge for a while.
When my sister started
to get bullied at school, it drove me mad.
I went around filled with rage,
wanting to set places on fire.
I understand you and Ji-hoon both.
However,
it's time to trust the police now
for Ji-hoon's sake.
Ji-hoon is such a strong kid.
He may be shy but he expresses
his thoughts, and he's determined.
He doesn't yield to violence either.
That's why my sister likes him.
She has high standards for men.
Now that I'm raising a teenager,
I realized living with them
is a hard task.
Every day is a challenge.
You raised him well.
Ji-hoon said
you became his real family.
So,
please give me and the police
please give us the chance
to protect Ji-hoon
before it's too late.
JARANG CONVENIENCE STORE
WANTED: KILLING VOTE MURDER SUSPECTS
What are you doing?
Who's that?
Give me one of those. I need to wake up.
Here. Let's eat this and focus.
This is a crucial moment.
Keep your eyes open.
We can't miss a thing.
So what's going on? Tell me.
They're suing all of us
for Lee Min-soo's death.
Darn it.
-What?
-Yeah.
COMPLAIN
He was a suspect
who hadn't been tried yet.
And the police helplessly let him
get kidnapped and receive death threats.
So you'll have to take
responsibility for his death.
What's the real reason for doing this?
What are you trying to do
after disturbing our team?
Assemblywoman Min
wants a genuine apology
and proper compensation from the police.
That is all.
Yoon-ji, our guest is leaving.
Escort her to the exit
so she won't wander off.
Yes, sir.
Follow me. This way.
-Should I dip into my savings?
-Now's not the time for that.
You've never been sued.
You can lose everything.
Do you own a house?
Online banking's better for a loan.
They're using the lawsuit to stall
so they can find a scapegoat.
They're afraid people will find out
they hired the truck driver.
Min Ji-young has always acted like this.
Any trace of Kwon Seok-joo?
His car was found 2km
from the scene of the accident.
We're checking all the CCTV nearby.
But he took the dashcam memory card.
What about Ji-hoon?
They must be in touch.
-Anything from your sister?
-Well
There's actually something
about her that bothers me.
I checked earlier, and there was
something suspicious in Min's movements.
HOME, SCHOOL, CONVENIENCE STORE, APARTMEN
KIM JI-HOON
The number you have dialed is
Ji-hoon is on the wanted list now.
Do you know where he could be?
What's her problem?
Ji-hoon!
Mister?
Hyun, were you following me?
How could you?
Hey. How could you lie to me?
You've lost your mind.
Cops can't come in
and search a house like this.
Quiet, you idiot.
Where's your friend?
Is he gone or coming back?
He's not here?
I don't know. Some kids said
they saw him here so I came.
My phone. Give it back.
Give me back my phone. Move, mister!
Darn it. That's not yours.
I'll call the cops on you both
for trespassing, assault, and theft.
Suit yourself. Gosh, such a know-it-all.
It's turned off.
-Can we track this number?
-We'll have to try.
Give me my phone!
Move, mister. Get out of the way.
If you're truly his friend,
you should think of protecting him
instead of hiding him.
Turning himself in is the best thing
Ji-hoon can do for his own safety, okay?
Min.
I'll be watching you.
No more funny business.
Go home!
Don't come home. The cops are here.
Remember when we came here before?
Of course.
It was our first trip
after we became family.
She said when she grew up,
we should come back here
and go fishing because you like to fish.
I'm glad we scattered
her ashes in the sea.
Na-rae can travel around the world now.
She'll brag so much when we meet again.
You should leave too.
I was consumed by anger
and made you wear that mask too.
I felt sorry every day.
All I have left to do now
is to turn myself in.
Don't tell anyone where you're going.
Not even me.
And just go
as soon as possible.
Make a new family and forget about us.
I don't want that.
I'll turn myself in too.
I won't leave you again.
I'll negotiate with Mu-chan
to remove you from the APB.
Min Ji-young might try to harm you,
so until you're safe, stay away from here.
When I'm released,
I'll come find you.
No matter where you are,
I'll come find you.
Don't look for me. Just send me an email.
You don't have to say
where you are. I'll figure it out.
Okay.
There are more people here now.
Here.
A fake ID and passport.
I made a lot of friends
with skills while working in prisons.
Don't worry. They assured me
they're like the real ones.
The flight ticket is real.
Thank you, Number Three.
It's nice to meet you in person.
You're very talented.
You'll be all right wherever you go.
Back then,
I was too late
to pick up Na-rae,
so I missed her.
Do you resent me for that?
Not even once.
Not even once have I resented you, my son.
So you didn't tell him?
Well, what can we do?
Individuals are bound to be crushed
by the wheel of history.
PROPERTIES OF INMATES
These two show signs of being lived in?
Yes. They're still serving time,
so the houses are supposed to be empty,
but water and electricity had been used.
-Any relationship with Kwon?
-Yoo regarded him like a cult leader.
And Heo only exchanged greetings with him.
I'm suspecting Heo.
Ownership was transferred
while he was incarcerated.
I reviewed the ownership records
for the past five years,
and the first owner
was Park Chul-min's father.
Park Chul-min?
-Are you sure?
-Yes, sir.
There were a few owners afterwards,
but it was originally Park's home.
Then, it's definitely him. Let's go.
Well done, Yoon-ji.
Thank you, sir.
We know where Kwon's hiding.
Hello, sir.
Sir, the director's asking for me.
-Let's go.
-Yes, sir.
Park's parents invested
in some bad derivatives
and committed suicide
after going bankrupt.
Park joined the victims' group for them.
He was so shocked
he even stopped going to church.
He helped Kwon
because he was angry at the world.
In any case, keep looking for Ji-hoon.
He's a teenager.
He couldn't have gone far.
Yes, sir.
You'll catch Kwon
alive, right?
Seorae High's first wanted criminal?
-Who's Kim Ji-hoon?
-Gaetal's from our school. Unbelievable.
-No joke.
-It's a big reward. Should I catch him?
Hello?
Min.
Ji-hoon? Is that you?
Where are you?
Hello?
Hello? Where are you?
In front of your place.
You're the only person I can go to now.
Who are you?
Let go of me!
Is everything ready?
-How's it going?
-We're ready.
You may begin now.
You should've turned her phone off.
It's Kim Mu-chan.
Answer it.
It's me.
You know the APB is out on Kwon now.
Of course, I do.
If you know how to get in touch, tell me.
I don't.
You met Kwon recently
and even let that fugitive appear on TV.
But you really don't know?
Spill it before things get worse.
What's Kwon Seok-joo's next move?
I don't know. Don't ever call me again.
Also, tell Hyun I can't come
to her birthday party.
I suddenly have a business trip--
Don't worry.
I'll give it back when you leave.
You'll really let me go?
I'm an anchor on network TV.
You'll get in trouble for this.
Do you think I care
about something like that now?
You're not going to killing me, are you?
I could catch Kwon
thanks to you, so why would I?
Your show used the money
I gave you to sentence my son to death,
but I'm not a thug, you know.
Just watch
and see how those murderers end up.
CHAE DO-HEE'S KILLING VOTE SPECIAL
I've got to go.
Go?
Go where?
I'll let you know later.
I don't know when,
but I'll definitely let you know.
Wait. My sister isn't that narrow-minded.
She likes you.
Let's talk with her.
You're a minor, and you only helped.
They said you won't be punished harshly.
I read that turning yourself in
can help you later in court.
I'm not going to turn myself in.
My father will turn himself in first
and reveal the crimes
Lee Min-soo and Min Ji-young committed.
And I promised him
I'd hide until it's over.
Ji-hoon. Actually, I
Hello, my fellow citizens.
The Killing Vote will now begin.
First, I'd like to apologize
for using the network's online forum
instead of the smartphone app
for the vote.
Start it now.
THE KILLING VOTE FORUM
YES, NO
REWARD UP TO 100 MILLION WON
FOR GAETAL'S WHEREABOUTS
My name is Kwon Seok-joo.
I was once a philosophy of law professor
at the best university in Korea.
Darn it.
It's from Gaetal's hideout.
And it's definitely recorded.
It's being transmitted from
I planned the Killing Vote
Broadcast straight from the network?
They're crazy.
I'm the one who you call Gaetal.
Now, I'm going to put myself up for vote.
For the crime
of murder.
FATHER
The phone is turned off
Darn it.
VIEWERS' FORUM
KILLING VOTE FOR GAETAL, YES OR NO?
COMMENTS
NUMBER THREE
Please pick up.
I must speak with my father. Please.
NUMBER ONE
You're with my father, right?
Put him on the phone.
That'll be difficult.
He's about to do something important.
He's going to kill himself.
We must stop him.
So you do know.
Stop bothering him.
You shouldn't stop someone
who wants to leave.
That's nonsense!
You're not just going to
let him do it, are you?
I am.
To change this unfair world,
there needs to be bloodshed.
That's why the Professor
is sacrificing himself.
So all sinners on this earth
can get their just punishments.
But to let mere human emotion
get in the way of this?
-I guess you're still a kid.
-Number Three.
Be proud of your father.
I envy you.
Number Three!
I want you to cast your votes
as you did before.
You won't need to verify your names,
and you can vote more than once.
I just want you
to understand my determination.
Ji-hoon is at our house. Come now.
-The number you
-Darn it.
-Hyun is coming.
-Min!
Yes! I betrayed you.
Running away isn't easy.
Just turn yourself in.
I can't let my father die
just so I can live. Could you?
I'll convince my father
and we'll both turn ourselves in.
I'll come with you.
If you're with me,
the cops won't find you.
Where's the place?
Where is it?
There's something Ji-hoon has to do.
He'll turn himself in
as soon as it's done. Sorry.
The phone is turned off
GPS CONNECTION ERROR
Min ran off somewhere else.
What am I going to do with her?
I know. What do we do?
What do we do
with this crazy and incredible situation?
Is the server overloaded? But why?
What's the program?
It looks like a video streaming program.
Where is this coming from?
For crying out loud.
We have cameras and sensors
set up all around the house.
We're checking now for weapons.
People had been coming by
with daily necessities for a while.
I checked the photos,
and they were Park and Jung for sure.
-What about Kwon Seok-joo?
-He hasn't been confirmed yet.
The fact that Jung was here
means there could be a bomb.
-Check that.
-Yes, sir.
I used to believe
that everyone was equal before the law.
But when my daughter
became the victim of a ruthless crime,
I realized laws
and justice in this country
were incredibly weak.
So I created the Killing Vote.
While hiding behind this mask,
I've been trying to convey one message.
Fair and rational justice.
Execution of the law
that we all can understand.
JI-HOON'S GAETAL STREAMING
Hello, my fellow citizens.
I'm Gaetal Number One.
I programmed and opened the Killing Vote.
Ji-hoon started streaming as Gaetal.
-What?
-Sir.
Check this out.
Everyone, please vote "No"
for the current Killing Vote.
-No, stop voting.
-We're just playing around.
Professor Kwon must not be killed.
I think Ji-hoon
is heading there. I'll follow him.
Darn it.
GAETAL'S STREAMING
Darn it.
Let's get him first. Up the reward.
Yes, ma'am.
Although I do not have any regrets
or shame about my method,
the fact is I also committed
and aided in murder just as they did.
Therefore, I'm leaving the decision
of my execution in your hands.
Now I get why Kwon
put himself up for vote.
He's going to kill himself after the vote.
KILL HIM ALREADY
SUDDENLY GAETAL NUMBER ONE?
WHAT'S GOING ON?
SHOULD I VOTE OR NOT?
KWON'S GAETAL?
JUST KILL HIM
Excuse me. Sorry.
Sorry.
You can't be serious.
I'll tell you why he created the vote
and put himself up for it.
-Taxi!
-Please hear me out.
Please.
Let's go.
Move!
Change of plans.
We're negotiating with Kwon.
-I'll do it myself.
-What? Negotiate?
We found booby traps
inside the wall and at the entrance.
Kwon and Park.
You're surrounded.
Darn it.
When his daughter
was murdered eight years ago,
the cops knew
Lee Min-soo was the accomplice.
Go that way. Quick, this way!
The police are watching
every move you make.
Turn yourselves in.
They're already here.
Are you going to let it
end like this? Professor.
To make you believe me,
I should reveal who I am.
-Hey.
-My name is Kim Ji-hoon.
Eight years ago,
Professor Kwon was going to adopt me.
And Na-rae was my precious sister.
Move!
Come on out!
Go that way.
Darn it.
EYEWITNESS ACCOUNTS OF JI-HOON
Everyone's gone crazy.
Our family's happiness was destroyed
by the murderers Lee Min-soo
and Byun Woo-taek.
The one who used her money
and power to conceal their crimes
was Assemblywoman Min Ji-young.
And
a group of corrupt cops
and prosecutors were bribed by Min.
Ji-hoon's using Lee's computer
to stream through our agency's server.
I'll catch up with him soon,
so hang in there.
You said they're coming here.
What's the problem?
Min's offered a bounty on his head.
If they catch him, he'll be in danger.
Secure those two as fast as you can.
Just let us catch you already.
Darn it.
Excuse me. Where's the bus terminal?
-I think it's that way.
-Thank you.
My father's going to take his own life.
But why does he have to?
Those who destroyed our happiness
never paid for what they did.
Why is it always
the righteous people
who are strict with themselves?
I'm still not used to
seeing myself with the mask on.
This wasn't how I imagined myself
as a 19-year-old.
I want you to tell me.
Once happiness is taken away,
can it ever be regained?
We found him.
Just let us catch you, man.
-Just stay there.
-Jo-dan.
I'll find him.
Right.
You think you're Gaetal, you bastard?
Die, you bastard.
Seok-joo!
Hey! What are you doing?
Min. Ji-hoon.
Hyun!
Die, you bastard!
The meat's getting cold by the minute.
We can't keep silent forever.
I'll be brave and go first.
Is hierarchy not important to you?
Tasty.
Let's dig in.
-That one wasn't fully cooked yet.
-All right.
We're on the same team now,
so let's come together.
Let's have a drink
before the superintendent comes.
-Cheers!
-Cheers!
-Cheers.
-We don't just drink like that.
Right?
-It's her.
-Two assaults on duty.
I assaulted suspects
with my world-class kicks.
Let's go!
There it goes!
-Lieutenant Joo!
-Jjoo!
-Lieutenant Joo!
-Come on, Jjoo!
Yes, sir! I'm the whistleblower!
-Whistleblower.
-Whistleblower!
-Whistleblower!
-Whistleblower!
-Hyun?
-Whistleblower!
My sister is here!
Min!
Hey, my troublemaker.
And my apprentice is here too!
She's here because she couldn't reach you.
Sir, Ji-hoon has amazing computer skills.
He's awesome.
I'll take him to the Cyber Bureau.
-No. We'll become reporters.
-No, he's mine.
-Stop it.
-I'll mentor him.
Everyone, the superintendent is here!
-Superintendent!
-Superintendent!
-Cheers!
-Cheers!
Can you believe this?
This is the state of the Korean police.
No, it's not!
It's not like I hit him a lot.
I like this though.
Ji-hoon, my apprentice!
I'll mentor you. Come here.
Don't you dare.
If you drink, you're dead meat.

Min's offered a bounty on his head.
Hyun!
Stick to the plan.
Do you think he'll be okay then?

I don't regret what I did.
