-Where are you headed?
-Shinkil-dong.
-Give him some money for the taxi and let him go.
-Let's take the Kangbook-ro.
Hongseok.
Hongseok...
-Get out!
-You will be out of here soon too.
From HanOh.
-Hey, Jisoo!
I tried to protect you.
-You should have protected me until the end.
-Still, how could you hand over that document to that bastard!
-Watch your language, brother.
He is my husband.
-What can I say?
I have nothing more to say to you.
-Dad, I have to confess something.
Remember the day my mom passed away at the hospital?
Her last words..
I was the only one who heard it.
She said to you that she is grateful...
and sorry.
But dad,
That was a lie.
My mom actually said this.
'Don't trust your dad.'
'Every breath he takes is a lie.'
This is how daughters are like, I guess.
We don't listen to our mom,
..and regret it in the end.
-What are you going to do now?
-What can I do?
Guess I gotta listen to what my mom said.
-It will be a long fight.
-Can't be longer than life.
-You and I need Hyera right now.
-I've done worse.
Bring her back.
-There are no one inside,
and the wall still hangs a calendar from 1997.
Go in and get rest.
I'll be on guard duty.
-Hongseok.
What did you want to become when you were little?
I wanted to be a detective.
But when I became one, I wanted to be a Chief, and I eventually wanted to be a Director, too.
-Sigh...
Are you going to be on the field your whole life?
If you worked hard, you gotta take it easy from time to time.
-I will have to stop at being a Chief,
But nearing sisxty, I spent all the money for my wife's medical fees, I have forty grand and $300-a-month rent in my possession... what a pity.
I guess a countryboy from Hap-chon made it pretty far.
That's how I feel these days.
-Your life...
Perhaps it isn't worth an A+, but it probably deserves at least an A-.
-But today, this one guy was weighing my life on a scale.
He was saying that he will take away my pension and benefit, and also put me behind bars.
He was waving a printout in front of my face, and I was thinking how is my life better than that piece of paper?
Weird, huh?
I was on a cab, and suddenly I missed you so much.
-You like me that much, eh?
-Don't push it~
-Chief.
Do you know why baseball has 9 and 1/2 rounds?
-Ah, don't lecture me again,
You are gonna say that life is unpredictable so just give it your best.
-No,
If the teams are all made up of Lee Dae-ho, who's gonna bunt?
I always thought,
...that I am a sacrificial bunt-only player.
Even if no one claps at me, if I'm outted at the first base, who gives a damn?
I had Miyeon and Soojung at home.
You have your wife, son, and your daughter.
-I'm growing old.
I'm complaining at you, when I know what's going on with you.
My bad.
-If you are sorry,
Move your ass a little bit.
Let me clean this place up.
-So this is what resulted from the overnight meeting?
-Yes.
-I have stood before you today with much guilt today.
I apologize for my family's involvement in such undesirable circumstances, even if I was not aware of it.
There are many who fear its damages to the economy, as a result to this incident.
The national rating may be downgraded, the unemployment rate may rise, the foreign investors may withdraw, the economy will recede, there will be much consequences.
But our people have the energy.
We can overcome any hardship and pain.
We are at a crossroad right now.
Will we choose a brief pain, or forever live in a lie?
I, Kang Dong Yoon, the presidential candidate of Daehan,
insist that the majority and the minority parties quickly gather and approve the special investigation on the matter and hold a hearing!
To rid of all questions and suspicion, I suggest that everyone involved in the window dressing be investigated and
...interrogated to reveal the truth in its entirety.
-Good work.
You all may leave now.
-They are moving too quickly.
Father.
The Prosecutors have to take this case.
We must stop them from forming a special investigative team...
-The special investigation, as well as the hearing, will happen.
How will the congressmen say no to this?
Dongyoon's pushing them very hard.
-You seem to be hurrying things too much.
We should take a step at a time, depending on Suh's reaction.
-How did David take down Goliath?
How did Hannibal march to Rome?
With one sudden, swift blow.
A chance doesn't come twice.
-Yes, the inauguration in China?
Yes.
Seo's ceremony, eh?
When you print the invitations, make one for Youngwook as well.
I'll make sure I'll provide the 'papers'.
Did you say that it is in three days?
I got it.
Keep up the good work.
-Father.
I...
Only came back two months ago, after I was pardoned.
And I am supposed to run away again?
-What can we do?
We have to be careful for the time being.
While you are abroad, I will find measures to cover this up.
-Do we have to stand by and watch him become the president?
-How can he become a president when I am still around?
You said that the girl's father's name is Baek Hongseok, right?
-Discreetly prepare some additional evidences to back our accusations up.
Leak some testimonials to the press.
And be sure to leak some info to the public organizations too.
-There is an urgent matter at hand.
Baek Hongseok.
If he falls into the hands of Suh, he will possess a card that can cripple you.
-What do we need?
-A bit of money,
and the power to influence the police.
We have to find Baek first, before they do.
-I..
am..
...Soojung's father!
You will remember me every time you take a breath.
-Baek Hongseok...
-Did you fart?
-Yes.
I didn't even eat yet...
-Did you fart?
-How did you know?
-You stink.
-How can fathers be so different?
My dad,
...doesn't call me, even if I am not home for over a week.
-How about calling him first?
-Hell no!
I am never calling him first.
Are we checking out Kang Byungho first?
-He should have everything,
from trial-related documents, evidences, perhaps even the proof of falsification.
-I am guessing that his office is in Kang-nam, since is a famous laywer?
-I guess.
-Good choice, then.
-Detective Cho?
Detective Cho?
-I'll be off to Kangnam.
See you, Yongsik.
-I...
I didn't want to squeal the location of the cabaret, but these guys had gears...
-I'd give it up too.
We are just that much close to each other!
You are so mean.
I even drove here because I was worried that you might get hurt.
-I'd do the same.
We are just that close to each other.
-What's that supposed to mean?
Detective Cho?
Detective Cho!
-Forty guards in the daytime, forty at the nightgime, and they patrol the area in a group of two every five minutes.
The main entrance may be difficult to infiltrate.
-Ah, Baek,
How could you fart in such a small area?
-It's my fart.
-It smells like rice soup.
-The office doors are separately guarded by a security company in the evening.
Nighttime infiltration is impossible.
-Well, if we can't go in during the night, then we should go in during the daytime!
-In the daytime?
How?
-Detective Cho,
Can you first explain what relationship we are in?
-Sunbae, could you give us a moment please?
-Ah, I've seen it earlier today. It's the civil defense drill day, so everyone is supposed to go up to the rooftop for evac training.
The office will be vacant during that time.
-Yongsik.
Won't they lock the door on their way up?
-I guess...
-Detective Cho.
There has to be a way.
-You have to thank me.
After all, I vouched for you to be released.
-Ah, you did...
I...I can't say anything...
-Don't worry.
Your dad will speak for you.
-Hwang got reinstated in two months?
Who is behind this guy?
-Yes.
This is Hwang Ilgwan.
-Congratulations on your return to duty.
-Who are you people?
-We are those who can make your wishes come true.
Whatever they are.
-So you can put me back in my job, give me some cash, so you want me to tell where Hongseok is?
That sums it up, right?
There is a saying that you shouldn't sell what you can't buy with money.
Hongseok is...
-Since you can't buy it with money,
...you can get a better price for it.
-What?
-Your son drives in the evening,
to save up for the college.
-That kid...!
-It's nothing to be angry about,
You should be sorry instead.
-Stop it.
How much is this juice?
I'll pay for what I drank.
-I have already got an answer from your wife.
-You met my wife?
-She apparently has a different answer, compared to yours.
-Why?
Why can't I get compensated?
After the marriage was broken off,
I drank more than 10 boxes of soju.
I lost health, my heart was broken, and I even got hemorrhoids.
Ah, my ass...
So we have to ask for compensation...
Where is the washroom?
Ah, I'm so pissed my ass hurts.
-But...
-I'll be back shortly...
What you have done is so inhumane!
Have I ever raised my voice to you?
This is just not right.
So let's stop talking about this.
I'm going out.
Are you crazy?
What's the matter with you?
Do you want me to go crazy or something?
Please come to your senses!
-(HWANG ILGWAN'S REMAINING BALANCE IS 1-MILLION-DOLLARS, AND WITHDRAWAL IS ALLOWED UP TO 1-MILLION-DOLLARS)
-They are doing the civil drill.
It's an evacuation training.
Let's go.
-(HWANG ILGWAN'S REMAINING BALANCE IS 1-MILLION-DOLLARS, AND WITHDRAWAL IS ALLOWED UP TO 1-MILLION-DOLLARS)
-I'll move that cabinet and the books to the party office, so please take them with us.
-I understand.
What about the documents in your own office...
-I can manage them myself.
-Seo Youngwook is now banned from flights.
Tipping the advocacy group was effective.
64 advocacy groups united and did a press interview to prevent his leave, and the social media was flooded with opinions to stop him from leaving the country.
The ones in charge eventually gave in.
-Hyera.
-Yes.
-What's the father in law's favorite tea?
Prepare it.
-Ah, this will cause diplomatic conflits with China though!
What should we do then?
I gotta talk to them about building a factory in Shenzhen!
What could we do?
You don't have to be sorry.
Yes, keep up the good work.
-The parliamentary hearing and special investigation will begin soon.
If they summon me...
-Where are you going?
-I'll meet up with him.
I'll find out what he really wants.
-What can you do, even if you find out what he wants?
Uh, yes, Representative Jang.
Why?
What?
Yes.
Do as such.
Let's wait a bit.
Dongyoon will come here, even if you don't go there.
How much time is left until the major election?
-A month and half or so.
-When Yu enters the Blue House, special investigation and hearing will all be cancelled.
Nothing will happen to you.
-Dongyoon has over 65% support rate right now, father.
-Things will change tomorrow morning.
.
-Baek Hongseok.
-What should I call you?
High Chancellor?
That would be disrespecting the law.
Lawyer?
Who do you defend?
Punks?
Yes.
The punks who leech on the rich and the powerful.
-Kang currently has the entire nation on his back, and wields power that matches an actual president.
If Kang becomes the president, some people will not be too happy.
They need you right now.
-You were working for him before!
-And now I stand before you.
-Punk.
-I will prepare a press conference.
Until then, we will protect you.
-I went to the army, became a detective, gave birth to Soojung, bought a house, I was happy,
And you people took everything away from me with one blow.
-You can start anew.
Just do the press conference for me.
Then we can try to push for delayed sentence,
perhaps plead for mental stress and sudden misbehavior.
-Of course.
Is there anything that you people can't do?
-I'll do everything that you ask for.
I promise you, Baek Hongseok.
Trust me.
I plead not guilty to the accused, Park Kijun!
I came here to send you home.
Put your seal here, and everything will be over.
-Perhaps it is you,
who killed my daughter.
You can fight each other all you want.
I will take every one of you down myself.
Kang Dongyoon, Suh Jisoo, and JANG BYUNGHO.
YOU.
-There are young men from the party outside this room.
There is nothing that you can do.
-No,
I'll call them up myself.
COME IN!
4th spine damage will cause instant paralysis.
If I break it, he dies.
-Say it.
-Did he squeal?
Who was the one that took the cash?
Bae Kichul?
HanOh Security?
HanOh Security Firm's manager?
I bet they are corporate gangs.
Got it.
Order him some Yuk-gye-jang, and continue the interrogation.
It's me.
Yes.
Let's just eat.
Wow, you are good at separating the bones.
No wonder,
You all became rich by squeezing the poor.
-Would you like to wash your face is the broth?
A reporter quit recently, while investigating the PK Jun scandal case.
-PK Jun, had three women, this singer called Lee Junha, and Cho Minji.
-How about the third one?
-I couldn't get that far.
I am sorry.
-This case stinks, right?
The girls are apparently at the suburbs, so I'll check them out on the weekends.
What?
-I'm curious.
-About what?
-Your family must be in a lot of trouble, and you still work on your case like nothing's going on.
-Do you not go to work, when something is up in your family?
-What do you..
...think about your father?
-He is my father.
Just like your father.
Just father.
-Father,
The hearing has been approved just now, by majority and minority both agreeing to it.
The special prosecution seems to be on the way also.
Dongyoon this bastard!
Baek Hongseok...
-How can we catch a raging beast at one try?
-Father.
We cannot go down like this.
-Sit.
Youngwook.
Do you know why I messed up this window dressing case?
It's because I couldn't trust you.
I bet you can protect your rights to the company, if you pay the tax and whatnot.
But I also know that you won't stay in your seat for long, with your rate of shares.
-Father.
-Everyone's been saying.
...that you are not the right man for the chairman position.
And I agree with them.
But do you know why I still try to put you in that position?
Youngwook.
I like you a lot.
-Father.
-When you barely started walking, you were riding with your mother in front of my car.
You haven't even passed you first birthday, and you were waving at me through the rear windows!
I was thinking how to cut the construction costs to make more money, and I saw you.
And I felt something.
I almost shed tears!
You are still that kid to me, Youngwook.
-I'm sorry, father.
I should have been more careful.
-No.
How can anyone blame the children?
It's all because of the parents.
I'll make sure that nothing happens to you.
The executives are busy holding meetings, why don't you go buy them dinner?
Don't drink too much in empty stomach.
-Yes, father.
-Yes, I understand.
We found Baek's whereabouts.
We have sent someone, so we will get a call soon.
There is nothing you hold in your hands anymore.
-Please stop Yu from creating his own party.
And I hope I don't see your influence during the election.
-Should I give you my word, or want it in a seal?
-I don't believe in words.
I will take your son in a few days.
You won't be able to stop me.
The public opinion is entirely on my side.
Half the hearing committee is with me as well.
-So, are you holding my son as a hostage?
Ah, I have to do the calculations to compare the deals, no?
What's in your deal?
-As soon as I become the president, I will grant him a pardon.
-I have to stop the new party from being created, and stay away from your path. I even send my son in as a hostage,
...and you want to sit on the presidential throne and return my son to me?
-Yes.
-My promise is cash, but your promise is a draft.
-And that's exactly how you made HanOh group.
-What if I refuse?
-Youngwook's arrest is unstoppable.
He will be sentenced to at least seven years, according to the relevant law.
He won't have to worry about receiving a pardon throughout my term.
He can either come back to the group early nexy year,
...or rot in prison for over five years.
You can choose from these two options.
We won't need that.
He will leave shortly.
-Hongseok.
How much was your biggest deposit?
-I think it was around $3600 for the holiday bonus.
How much do you get for the yearly bonus?
-I don't even know, after paying off the debt and all.
Hongseok.
You started your married life in a small room, correct?
-Miyeon saved up a bit before our marriage.
-I stated in a basement with my wife.
There were building a condo nearby, it blocked all the sunlight,
while it also was very dusty due to the construction.
That's where Chanwoo was born.
Maybe that's why his respiratory system is so weak. I wanted to get him a...
small condo for him, when he finds a woman to settle down.
-He is still young.
Chanwoo is only 27.
-He had to quit school twice, because he didn't have tuition.
He has no 'spec',
His GPA isn't great.
And his sorry excuse for parents are broke as heck.
-They will find ways.
If they mess up, its their own fault.
-How can you blame the children for their misfortune?
It's all because of the parents.
Hongseok.
I am so sorry to have drafted you as the security team, I thought it might get me promoted.
-Ah, seriously,
You are acting weird today, Chief.
-Hongseok.
The smuggler you caught last year, you let me have that case, too.
-That was my birthday present for you.
And Hongseok...
I'm sorry.
I'm really sorry.
-Ah, seriously,
Where did Cho and Yongsik go off to?
I'll look for them.
-Stay for just a bit, Hongseok.
-It's so stuffed in here, I can't stay any longer.
Stay here and apologize to the ceiling.
-Hongseok?
-Ah, man...
-I think I went crazy for a bit.
Hongseok.
I didn't think I could do this to you.
There will be people here soon to get you.
-Chief...
-I'll go to hell when I die.
But I just can't let my kids live a hellish life in this world..
You said that you will let me catch you, right?
Please let them get you.
-Chief.
Good old chief...
What can we do?
Good old Chief...
-Hongseok.
I am sorry...
-Me too.
I am sorry.
Chief..
Get down!
-Sunbae, I got some dumplings for you.
-Let's go.
-Where is Chief?
I bought the dumplings for four.
-I said let's go!
-(Dongyoon) When the moment of choice comes, the real nature of that man is revealed.
Men are all alike.
If you accept that, many things become easier.
-Let me use your phone.
This is the office of lawyer Jang Byungho.
Let me talk to him.
-Why are you calling him?
-I have to get Kang.
Even if I make the deal with the devil, I'll have to get him.
-Dongyoon.
Let's do this.
While you delay the hearing, I'll find ways to sneak Youngwook out.
And then...
-Why don't you help him with the stairs.
-Okay, Dongyoon.
-Sir.
Baek is on his way over here.
-Ah, really?
-He will be coming to the party camp.
I will prepare for a press conference.
-Yes, keep up the good work.
Alright, Dongyoon.
Do as you wish.
Don't come out for me.
I came up here alone, I can go down myself.
-The hearing will begin immediately.
You will also be summoned.
-No rain falls forever.
The sun will come up soon.
-Find out.
...about what happened.
Hurry.
-이쪽으로.
-Mr. Baek,
You have been through a lot.
-Let's do the press conference.
Let's hurry up.
-The accused murderer of PK Jun, Baek Hongseok, has surfaced after a week of his escape.
He was located at Congressman Yu's newly formed party office.
The Party Representative Jang said that he will hold a press conference in an hour.
All the attention is towards Baek's reason for his escape, and what he is about to share with the world.
-I requested Baek's custody by force.
I wanted to sneak him out first, and find ways to deal with the situation.
-I bet Yu's people resisted
-They are using the young men to block the entrance to the building.
They fear that people may get injured in the process.
Then I will look into the press once again.
-What can the beast not say?
We will hear him out first, then decide what is right and wrong.
And your man is working as a reporter for the party?
Yes, do what you can.
Ah, and I heard the revenue for the PR division was increased. Meet Managing Director Kim.
What good is a homeboy?
Yes, keep up the good work.
-Father.
It's me, Dongyoon.
I don't think I can drop by the barbershop often.
Don't forget to take your heart pills.
Yes.
-Did you see the news?
That Baek...
I thought guys should dress up quickly when a girl comes in?
-I thought girls were supposed to turn around when a dude is changing clothes?
I saw the news.
-The press conference is in 40 minutes.
I thought about going to the scene, but I thought we should watch it together, since we worked on it together and all.
Here's the TV, too.
Who do you think it is?
The shroud that Baek is uncovering.
-Are you curious?
-Yes.
-Why did a daugher of a conglomerate become a reporter?
-Why do you think a girl from a poor family becomes a reporter?
The reason's all the same.
-Read it out.
The ones behind PK Jun case are in this thing.
-You reveal your cards, after the game is over.
Whatever.
Baek will tell the story with his own words, anyways.
-Suh Jisoo.
It's your sister.
The woman that was in the car with PK Jun on the day of the accident,
It's your sister, Jisoo.
I thought it was polite to tell you first, since we worked on it together and all.
-Hey, listen.
-Don't mess with me right now.
I am not in the mood.
I have been working on this case for months, and I wanted to go by the law on this one. The politicians ruined it for me, and I feel like crap right now.
Close the door on your way out.
And don't come back.
-During the last special investigation, six executives went to prison to protect Seo Youngwook.
Among them was my father.
-So?
-Back then, I thought to myself.
Why send away six, when one is enough..
I just thought about the same thing.
One...
...was enough to be responsible for all this.
Please sacrifice yourself for the candidate.
-The accident, the trial, I did it.
Is that what you want me to say?
-Please.
-You really are an interesting one.
-He never went to bed for more than three hours a day, for the past 10 years.
He was at the fields, making policies, that's how..
...how he prepared for today.
-Why would I?
-You can't be protected, in any cases.
You did drive the vehicle.
-No.
PK Jun drove the car.
I was in the passenger seat.
-There is a blackbox.
We have it.
Do you want to see it?
-Hyera!
-We will find the best lawyers.
We will try our best.
You won't be in prison for long.
-Who is this for anyways?
My husband?
Or you?
-The candidate and I, we have the same dream.
There is no time.
The press conference will begin soon.
There are a lot to prepare before that.
-If!
If I take the fall, will he be okay?
-He will skip this term.
Whether it takes five or ten years, he will try again.
-Do you think people will believe this?
-I will make them believe.
-No, they won't.
How can he not know the accident that his wife was in?
Who would believe that?
-This is the divorce papers that your father prepared.
This was completed a week before the accident, and was sealed.
I will leak it to the press, when the time is right.
There is nothing better to prove your faltering relationship with your husband.
Please, I ask you.
I will wait for you.
He is alone in his library.
-One is enough to take the fall...
-Yes.
-Got it.
I'll be back.
Honey.
There is a way.
You and I, there is a way to get out of this.
-This is the accused killer Baek's press conference at the briefing room of the newly formed party.
Baek is scheduled to be apprehended by the authority shortly after the press conference.
Baek has just arrived at the scene.
-There is a saying, that God knows the truth, but waits for the right time.
Today, a very important truth will be revealed.
-I..I am Baek Hongseok.
What I am about to share with everyone today is...
-The real culprit behind the Baek Soojung case just confessed to the police.
