Three Days
[Confidential 98]
[16 years later, March 2nd, 2014]
Just like 16 years ago, you always ask for something difficult.
We're old friends.
Blue House Staff.
This is Han Ki Joon. I must speak to the President.
Can I ask for a favor too?
The President is unavailable.
It's an emergency. This is important!
Mr. Minister of Finance?
Do not do anything.
Stop everything you are about to do.
Also...
Let's stop seeing each other like this.
If you have something to tell me, make an official visit.
To the Blue House.
Is there something else sir?
No.
Let's head back.
Episode 1
[March 2nd, 08:37 AM]
I'm looking for a patient.
I heard he was transferred here from Cheongju this morning.
This way please.
These are the recovered articles from the accident site.
Do they belong to your father?
The paramedic says that he was found in Highway 17 near Cheongju.
They believe that he fell asleep while driving.
Father...
Are you okay?
Are you?
[Entourage Team 2, Hwang Yoon Jae]
South Korea! President Lee Dong Hee promised wealth to his citizens.
His 90% approval rating dropped to 10% in just three years in his office.
The Special Prosecutor investigating the lobbying behind stock manipulation
done by the firm previously run by President Lee in '98 is in the spotlight.
The Lee administration will face a serious ethics problem if the firm is found guilty.
Meanwhile, the President hopes to get his support back
from the lower class by visiting a traditional market.
But his efforts appear to be in vain.
The VIP will be walking on foot for about 100 meters.
[Chief Officer of Secret Service Ham Bong Soo] He plans to make a visit on
foot at this Gosung Joint.
The staff of the local borough inspected it for seven days.
Our agents are continuing to observe it.
The VIP?
[Director of Secret Service Kim Sang Hee] He will leave the Blue House in five minutes.
Move it, Agent!
Han Tae Kyung! You better shape up, soldier.
- Why are you late? - I'm sorry sir.
To your post, damn it.
VIP is coming out.
VIP left the Blue House. He will be here in 30 minutes.
9882, VIP-1250 is 30 minutes before arrival.
Control the drop-off zone.
You can't park here.
Please don't unload here.
You have to peel it like this.
What's going on?
Zone 308, snipers in position.
Eagle Six, red lights for the intersections.
Minister of Finance Han did not call?
No sir, he did not call.
What are you doing?
Is something going on?
No sir. Nothing sir.
He just crossed the bridge. One minute until arrival.
9882, VIP-1250. One minute until arrival.
The traditional market is the easiest place for anyone to attack the President.
It's full of unidentified subjects.
We cannot perform screenings to find explosives or weapons.
Stay alert.
VIP-1250, 10 seconds before arrival.
9, 8, 7...
[Your father is in critical condition. Please call.]
4, 3, 2, 1.
Arrived.
The President of the Republic of Korea!
Make way! Make way!
Excuse me!
Have a fish cake sir!
It's good.
You're doing so much hard work in this cold weather.
Thank you!
Lee Dong Hee!
It's 100% organic rice.
Try this.
This is 9882. VIP is 10 meters away from the destination.
Control traffic on-foot.
11 o'clock! Get him!
The VIP?
Entourage! Report!
Report. Entourage! Report!
Entourage! Say something!
Get the vehicle ready at the exit route. The VIP is evacuating.
Is VIP safe?
Entourage! Report!
Vehicle at the exit route!
Oh my God, what's going on?
Get him on his feet.
Hey, clean this up right here.
Hey!
Are you mad?
This concerns you right now?
What are you doing?
[Your father just passed away.]
If that had been a bomb instead of flour...
then we would have lost the VIP.
Do you know what that means?
No matter what!
You should never miss your mark.
[Chief of Staff Shin Gyu Jin] Is it he?
Yes, it was all my fault.
I'm prepared for any disciplinary action.
The news is covered with pictures of the President running covered in flour.
I don't even want to talk about the internet.
Will disciplining you make those pictures go away?
You think it will be as if it never happened?
That's enough sir.
Are you standing up for your team right now?
The Secret Service was against today's event.
Traditional market is dangerous.
You think the Staff didn't know?
Isn't it your job to make it safe?
And I'm in charge of the Secret Service.
You can direct your complaints to me.
Then will you resign in place of this agent?
Agent Han is the son of the Minister of Finance Han.
We were informed just 30 minutes ago.
This morning, he was in a coma from a traffic accident.
He had just passed away during the visit at the marketplace.
It's my fault sir.
Like you said, no matter what... Even if my father had passed away...
I should have not missed my mark.
The Secret Service will discipline him.
So please stop.
Give me your ID and your badge.
You're on probation.
Dismissed. They will need you at the funeral.
I will go after making my report.
- I don't need it. You can go! - No sir.
It's my fault. I'm accountable.
Get in.
I'm sorry sir.
It's all my fault.
So this is what the Presidency is.
I get an apology from a son who couldn't be at his father's death.
You did nothing wrong, Agent Han.
There is someone who did wrong.
We're here sir.
This is as far as I can take you.
It's okay. Thank you.
Agent Han Tae Kyung.
Did you get the lost articles of your father's?
Yes sir.
If you may, could you tell me what they were?
His cell phone, wallet, and car keys.
May I be dismissed?
Yes you may.
You have my condolences.
Are you Han Ki Joon's family member?
Can I help you?
I'm Yoon Bo Won from Seojo PD.
The accident site was on Highway 17 between Cheongju and Seojori.
Do you know the reason why he went there?
No.
Any friends or relatives in the area?
No one.
Had he been acting strangely lately?
Like anxious or worried?
I was outside Korea because of work right before the accident.
I couldn't see my father for a month.
I also want to know why he was found there. Happy?
Back in the traffic accident team in my area...
they already concluded this case as a simple traffic accident from falling asleep while driving.
Are you saying that it's not?
Was there a white document envelope in his retrieved articles?
What are you talking about?
It was about this big.
No such thing.
It was his cell phone, wallet, and car keys.
Why are you doing this?
I'm sorry to trouble you during your funeral. Thank you for your cooperation.
What about the retrieved articles?
Why did you come here?
If you ever find out who your father went to see in Cheongju...
Call me.
[Officer Yoon Bo Won]
[March 4th 22:13]
They already concluded this case as a simple traffic accident from falling asleep while driving.
If you may, could you tell me what the retrieved articles were?
[Recent - Confidential 98]
Recent item.
I don't know the password.
That means...
It was last accessed...
At 8:25.
The hallway for 102-815?
Yes, I'd like to check starting 8:25 PM.
Can you check the CCTV at the parking lot at this hour?
2626.
[64BEO2626]
Are you awake? Are you okay?
I'll call an ambulance.
Han Tae Kyung!
Tae Kyung!
Do you know me?
On March Fifth...
The President is going... to die.
What does that mean?
Hey! Hey!
Good morning, it's March Fifth.
Before the prosecution reveals the result of their investigation
President Lee will leave for his official vacation
at the Presidential Vacation Home in Cheongsuho.
All the security preparations are complete in the vacation home for the VIP.
We have checked all the possible routes from the sea, earth, and sky.
Only inspected vessels may come in while the VIP is staying.
No aircrafts may enter the air space of Cheongsuho.
Eagle Six. One minute before the helicopter arrival.
10 seconds before the VIP arrival.
Are we going as we planned?
We are preparing as you requested.
But this could be dangerous.
This is very important to me.
Please move at my discretion.
When you discovered the victim, he was on the verge of death.
Yes.
I saw a man leave right before I came here.
I didn't see his face.
But he was in his late twenties.
His height was about six-foot-one.
I saw a CCTV at the alley.
You can check it.
How do you know the victim?
He knew my late father.
How long do I have to stay here?
You can go now. Thank you for your cooperation.
I won!
I won so much!
I always get so lucky when I play with you!
Just do your math for the winnings.
Okay! Okay!
You're going to have to pay quadruple, and you too!
Let's call it a night. We're going to stay up all night.
Highway 17 from Cheongju to Seojori.
A car accident.
Officer Yoon Bo Won! I got this.
Highway 17 between Seojori and Cheongju. A traffic accident.
Requesting ambulance.
Are you all right? An ambulance will be here.
Envelope. Envelope.
Calm down. Talking may be harmful.
The ambulance is here. You need to wake up.
They are going to take the envelope.
It's important.
A simple accident?
My team concluded that it was a simple accident.
An envelope seems to be missing from the retrieved articles package.
An envelope?
I didn't see it.
What about the vehicle?
Because of the damage, they are going to wreck it.
Will you stop? I'm busy.
Officer Yoon!
Are you still after this case? How about tonight?
Are we playing?
Oh come on. I'm a cop.
Stop tempting me while I'm solving my case.
You know Mrs. Seo that lives down there says...
that she saw a car passing by at that time when she came out to check her greenhouse.
Really? What did it look like?
A large white car passed by.
It had a big circle in the back.
A circle?
Can you be out already?
- What about your father's funeral? - It went well.
Is something wrong?
It's... Where's the Chief of Secret Service?
He went to Cheongsuho with the VIP. Why?
I heard something strange.
I did too.
What did you hear?
The man caught confessed.
He was hired by someone.
If you do me a favor, I will give you this.
On my mark, you throw it at him. Do you understand?
Why would anyone hire him for that?
If he didn't like the President, he could have done it himself.
Are you sure that he isn't lying to avoid charges?
No, we found the person who hired him.
- What? - He needed to get close to the President.
Like a camouflage.
He did it to get to the President?
He's crazy.
I don't know if he's crazy.
But it's true. They got it on the news.
President Lee was hit by a pack of flour while he was visiting a traditional market.
Reporter Joo, reporting.
It's him. The man caught pointed him out.
It's impossible to identify him with just his face alone.
We will need to look into why he did this.
Do you remember seeing him there?
What's wrong?
This man.
- I know who he is. - What?
His name is Yang Dae Ho. Colonel of the Army.
Throw it on my mark. Do you understand?
This morning.
He said that the President is going to die on March Fifth...
Then he was killed.
Go! We don't have time. Get ready!
Check the security marking before letting the vehicle pass.
If someone is in the car, then it's a VIP's personal guest.
- It's this. - Are you sure this is what he gave to the President?
The Entourage Captain saw this note being passed to the President.
He checked it himself after that.
We checked for any toxic substance.
But the test came clean.
Yang Dae Ho is a colonel. [I own a small supermarket. Help us.]
He never owned a grocery shop.
But nothing suspicious was found on this note.
Because they thought it was from a civilian.
There is something here.
Was this written too?
Yeah.
What are you doing?
They are the pass codes we used during the market operation.
Only the Secret Service would know that.
Yang Dae Ho worked as a colonel at the confidentiality division.
What if he had known?
What's the first number?
1250.
[Event place.]
And then it's 2005.
[Planned]
The last one is 1007.
[Assassination]
Colonel Yang tried to alert him of an assassination?
That's impossible.
Who?
Why would he want to kill the President?
You go report the situation.
And look into Yang Dae Ho's case.
The person who killed Yang could have done it to cover up the assassination attempt.
If we catch him, we can find out who and why he did this.
What about you?
I should go to Cheongsuho.
The Secret Service will not make a move even if I reported it.
Do you really think this is true?
I wish that it weren't too.
But what if it's true?
Yang Dae Ho told me.
That the President is going to die.
I don't have much time. I need to go there myself and tell him.
And we have to get ready for the worst.
Eagle Six, the guest is going back home.
Let it pass without checking.
Eagle Six, the VIP is moving to the fishing area.
The embankment road is too dangerous due to fog. Closing.
Highway 22. We have a report of broken repeater. Go check.
Copy that.
Good evening Officer.
I need to inspect this vehicle.
Did you have drinks tonight?
- You drive rather roughly. - I'm sorry, Officer.
I'm not familiar with the road here.
- What are you doing here? - I got a call that the repeater is broken.
But you're not the guy who came last time.
Officer 36, go check Highway 30.
This road is dangerous due to fog tonight.
I will go check quickly and leave. You don't need to worry.
The scheduled time is 20:00 hours. Don't be late. Not even by a split second.
- Got it? - Yes sir.
She said that there was a circle in the back.
What is that?
I'm Agent Han Tae Kyung from the Blue House.
I need to see the Chief of Secret Service.
Identification and pass mark.
Please call him. He can verify my ID.
You cannot enter without your identification.
- It's an emergency. - Call him!
It's not a bomb?
[March Fifth, 20:00]
Hello? Hey!
Can you hear me?
- What the heck? - What just happened?
We have a blackout!
Eagle Six!
No.
We have a blackout!
Call the fishing area! Now!
No.
Subtitles by DramaFever
- What now? - This happened in Cheongsuho.
- What were you doing? - Everyone at the fishing area is KIA.
Fire the flare!
- Where is the President? - Han Tae Kyung must have smuggled the insider information.
- Someone must have sniped the President. - How do you know this?
There is no proof that your father's death had to do with this.
It's even more clear to me.
This is impossible without help from the inside.
Are you suspecting us?
The prime suspect of Colonel Yang is Agent Han Tae Kyung.
