Execution...
Proceed!
Yes sir.
It's Gaksital!
It was him?
It's Gaksital!
Comrade! Get in quickly. Quickly!
Comrade!
- Comrade Jeok Pa! Are you all right? - Move, you punk!
Gaksital!!!
Once the treatment is complete, there won't be complications.
Don't worry too much.
You swore before the chairman.
How could you ruin it?
I'm sorry.
You bragged that you would trample the hopes of the Joseon people.
How will you face the chairman now?
We are not trying to catch Gaksital for the chairman.
You punk!
Captain Kimura.
How can you just lie down and get treated in the hospital?
I told you a public execution shouldn't happen in a modern country,
and tried to stop you.
You lost Damsari and Gaksital, and got some imperial policemen killed!
You have given the Joseon people more hope for their rebellious behavior.
You are dismissed immediately.
When you have been treated, you will be duly punished.
Commissioner, we caught the woman who has been working with Damsari.
Let me interrogate her, at least.
That's absurd.
The one in charge of the Gaksital case is Sato Hiroshi.
Sato Hiroshi has been absent without leave for three days.
What?
Sato Hiroshi?
There is no one besides me who can interrogate that woman.
Please leave it to me.
All right.
You can handle the interrogation of that woman.
If you can't find out anything, you will be punished.
I understand.
Ah, Mr. Kimura. If your son needs a new job, come see me any time.
For old times' sake, I can at least write a letter of recommendation.
Thank you.
You have suffered a lot.
Thank you.
I only did what I am supposed to.
Because of me, Comrade Jang died and Comrade Jeok Pa has been captured.
You must escape, so that Comrade Jang's sacrifice won't have been in vain.
Comrade Jeok Pa... I will help her escape.
Don't worry.
Ahjussi, make haste.
Yes sir.
- Take your positions. - Yes sir.
What is going on all of a sudden?
Are you asking because you don't know?
Gaksital took Damsari away.
He detonated bombs on his body.
At any rate... Stubborn! Stubborn!
Comrades of Intelligence Faction 36, Ahjumma, Young Master...
I really thank you all.
Thank you.
Oh Mok Dan, hold on.
You need to hold back.
Because she wanted to destroy all her enemies, she named herself "Jeok Pa" ("destroys enemies")
She was the first female graduate and trainer of the Korean Military School.
She is probably stubborn.
I'm sorry. Were you hurt?
The whole city has been flipped upside down, and now he shows up.
Goiso, go out first.
Yes sir.
You reappear after two days and all you say is "I'm sorry were you hurt"?
Can't you just let it slide?
You punk, are you kidding?
Do I look like a pushover?
Without a word, you skipped work, and now you ask me to let it slide?
I felt choked up, so I went for some fresh air.
Choked up?
What makes you choked up?
You are a punk who only cares about love, not about whether we catch Gaksital!
What makes you choke up?
I'm disappointed with myself too.
But now, I have completely given up on that girl.
Given up?
When you've only just said you loved her, now you're giving up?
Fine.
I'm warning you. Don't ever mention Mok Dan's name again.
If you say one more word about that girl, you will die by my hands.
From now on, don't let even a rat in.
Yes sir.
Captain, let me...
Understood?
Yes sir.
Wake up! Come to your senses.
Who is Gaksital?
Why don't you just kill me?
Kill you?
Why are you laying down your life for that punk?
Will that revive the dead nation of Joseon?
Do you think your lame efforts will cause the empire to fall?
Even if Joseon perishes, Korea will not die.
As long as there are people who want their country back, Korea is definitely alive.
Nonsense.
You, Damsari, and Gaksital, are just terrorists.
Shut up!
Don't speak so carelessly of the brave troops fighting you robbers!
Who is he?! Say it!
Captain, let me try.
That woman is the last key we have to catch Gaksital.
Give me a chance, just this once.
I will definitely find out information.
Ishida, go out.
Captain Kimura told me not to move from here.
Don't you hear me?!
Lee Kang To... Do you know who he is?
He is Gaksital.
How is the commander?
He is safe.
Whatever happens, I will help you escape.
But first, at least pretend to cooperate.
When the commander was getting beaten by those punks, I turned my back and left him.
I should have died then.
Why did you send Ishida out?
It is natural not to want to confess in front of your torturer.
Don't you know how it feels to not want to submit?
Tell me before I stick that brand into your head. Who is Gaksital?
Gaksital... Who he is?
This is your last chance.
If you don't tell me now, I could cut you up and kill you.
Before that, let me ask for a favor.
Favor?
There will probably come a day when you will meet Gaksital too, I suppose?
Then, tell him that this Jeok Pa,
who will eternally regret departing before the last enemy is destroyed...
Tell him that this Jeok Pa...
was sincerely grateful.
Grateful that at least Gaksital lived on...
The day I so desperately long for,
the day my homeland will be liberated...
I wanted him to live and see that day.
Can you tell him that?
Stubborn woman...
From your lips, I will make you say "Long live His Majesty."
You punks will never know Gaksital's true identity.
Even after I die, I will keep my eyes opened wide and protect Gaksital.
They commit suicide by biting their tongues. Are they crazy?
She will protect him even after she dies? That's freaky.
You punks,
will never know Gaksital's true identity.
Even after I die, I will keep my eyes opened wide and protect Gaksital.
- Captain! - Captain!
Captain! Captain! Wake up.
Unni! Unni! Unni!
What is it, Sun Hwa?
What do we do? What do we do? Oh Dong Nyun ahjumma... Ahjumma.
What about her? Say it slowly. Slowly...
Ahjumma... died from Shunji's gunshot.
What?
Ahjumma what? Ahjumma died?
Everyone is with Troupe Leader Jo at the circus.
Unni!
Sun Hwa, you stay here with Jang Soo and I'll go.
I need to go to the circus. Someone died!
You can't take one step out without the captain's permission.
What? She bit her own tongue?
Have I seen such a crazy punk...!
What did he do to make her bite her tongue?
Arrest him immediately!
He collapsed as soon as the interrogation was over, and now he is in hospital.
It doesn't matter whether he is in the hospital or not.
Once he is conscious, arrest him!
Be sure to find out what kind of support he has behind him, so that he can't act against me.
Yes sir.
Kakawa, you can leave.
Yes sir.
Are you all right?
Don't worry. You've heard, haven't you?
Your father is safe.
Shunji, are you all right?
Are you awake?
Do you want to get up? Want me to help?
I understand. I'll go out.
Thanks for coming.
I came to ask for a favor.
What is it?
Oh Dong Nyun ahjumma from our circus has passed away.
I need to go, but the officers say I can't without your permission.
Okay, I see.
Kakawa.
Take Oh Mok Dan to the circus.
Yes sir.
I'll get going.
Commissioner Konno told me to arrest you.
You're not physically well.
I don't think we need to go to the interrogation cell.
He is thinking that you didn't act on your own in pushing for the public execution.
Who is giving you power?
Power? You think I have power?
Do I look that powerful?
That kendo uniform in the photo Chief Kimura and Choi Myung Sub took together...
That uniform is giving you power, isn't it?
Go tell Konno that he doesn't need to know.
I think I clearly told you that Commissioner Kimura has ordered me to arrest you.
Arrest? Try it.
Abe!
Yes, Lieutenant.
Take Kimura Shunji to the police station.
What? The captain?
At once!
Watch how the people who give me power move.
Kimura Shunji has been arrested.
Why are you so surprised? Didn't we expect that would happen?
For how long are you going to just sit and watch Konno?
You said again and again that you would eliminate him. Those were just words.
If Kimura Shunji had caught Gaksital this time, he would have stepped down sooner.
Chairman, Konno is a thorn in the flesh of Governor-General Wada.
What if that stubborn Konno reports to the prime minister what has happened?
The governor-general is worried about that.
I see the governor-general of Joseon is the kind of man
who just sits around idle, eating apples, even though he is holding insurance in his hands.
Kinbei, I think you should step in.
Yes sir.
Tomorrow, get ready to go to the commissioner's office. Commissioner Kimura Taro.
Yes sir.
Arrogant punk. Did he resist?
Since Wada is in their hands they think the entire world is theirs.
Wait and see. I will contact the prime minister, and I will wipe those punks out.
Then I will promote you to captain... No, I will make you Chief of Jongro Station.
Thank you, Commissioner.
Sato Hiroshi!
This is the owner of Asuka Hotel, President Ueno.
You must be busy, but thank you for giving me time, Your Excellency.
Since Lala introduced me, I took the time. Briefly, just tell me your intentions.
Kinbei.
What is this?
This is my expression towards you, Your Excellency.
Commissioner Konno has just been assassinated by outlaws.
Japan must now become the supreme military country.
The people in China are waiting for Japanese soldiers to arrive.
As soon as possible,
Joseon must become a military supply base for the empire's first conquest.
In order for that to happen, we must be in complete control of public order.
So, the next commissioner... How about Kimura Taro?
Do you speak of Kimura Taro who was dismissed as Chief of Police in Jongro?
For the vacant position of Chief of Police in Jongro, how about Murayama Yoshio?
By Murayama Yoshio you mean, in Showa 7th year,
the soldier who was involved in the attempt to assassinate the prime minister?
You mean him?
Since you approve so willingly, it makes me very happy.
Approve?
Joseon's governor-general is appointed directly by His Majesty the Emperor!
A position granted by the heavens.
Are you threatening the governor-general who has legislative, executive, and judicial command?
Lala! Don't ever appear before me again!
Where do you think the huge amount of money you received as government funds came from?
[Chief Murayama Yoshio]
They killed Commissioner Konno and appointed a new chief?
Shunji, what kind of people are supporting you?
What are you going to do? Now that you've lost your lifeline...
Well, please take your seats.
Commissioner, Commissioner... Commissioner Kimura! Your Excellency.
Congratulations and congratulations again.
When the mood of war is getting stronger on the islands of Japan,
our Kishokai group gets an important position.
The empire's future is dazzling brightly!
Commissioner, I hope you will punish the outlaws who killed the previous commissioner,
and show the world that you believe in unbiased justice.
Ah, all of you, introduce yourselves. This is the newly appointed Jongro chief.
Chief Murayama Yoshio.
You remember the assassination of the previous prime minister who was hesitant about war.
He was implicated in that case but found not guilty.
Former soldier, now chief.
Commissioner, I will take my leave.
Do you have any orders for me?
They dare kill the commissioner in the governor-general's district?
Root out the rebellious Joseon people and do your best to maintain public order.
Yes sir.
[Joseon Government-General's Police Commissioner Assassinated by Rebel Instigators]
The assassination was definitely related to Lala.
And then they openly cast the blame on the Joseon people?
Applause.
Captain, congratulations on the promotion of Commissioner Kimura.
Congratulations.
Since Chief Kimura whom we used to serve has become the police commissioner of Joseon,
I hope all the officers in Jongro Station work even harder.
Yes sir!
Captain Kimura, Commissioner Konno's murder was here at Jongro Station.
It's something that shouldn't have happened. Let me catch the criminal with my own hands.
Really? True, you were close to Commissioner Konno.
All right, go ahead and try.
I will definitely catch them.
The new chief is coming.
Line up!
Attention!
Salute the chief!
Stand!
I am a general who has come from the battlefield.
Anyone who is against the empire is our enemy! Enemies must be killed. Understood?
Yes sir!
Captain Kimura.
Come immediately to the chief's office with the file on Gaksital.
Yes sir.
The sun must be rising from the west.
What's up, Sato?
I just wanted to talk to you.
Want a cup of tea?
Alcohol would be better.
I'm feeling down.
Can't you be my comfort?
Look Sato, do you see me as a gisaeng?
I must be mistaken.
I thought you would understand my point of view.
If I made you feel bad, I'm sorry.
I'm going.
What do you mean by your point of view?
What does that mean?
I... Why am I curious about your life?
How a gisaeng from Myeongweol-gwan became the Lala favored by the governor-general.
Would that be a story to match the story of how Lee Kang To became Sato Hiroshi?
As heartbreaking?
That time you were in mourning clothes...
The old man who asked you to pour a glass is now your adoptive father?
In addition, he is the one who made me a singer.
Is being a singer your true identity?
What do you mean?
Commissioner Konno, who was the only person in government on my side, has died.
The one who killed the commissioner,
is the man who tried to kill me five years ago at the gisaeng house.
That punk...
If there is an organization that doesn't need to be concerned about the consequences
of killing a top officer responsible for maintaining public order in Joseon,
they must have more power than I thought.
Don't be nervous.
I didn't come here to catch the criminal who killed Commissioner Konno.
I asked Kimura Taro to let me join that organization.
But he said I couldn't because I'm a Joseon person.
Can't you help me out?
I'm a punk who wants to be the commissioner and governor-general.
Whether it's sincere or not, I'm liking your ambition.
I can just trust you, can't I?
What are you doing?!
Yes sir.
Won't you stop?
Even if you are beasts, how could you be like this when someone has died?
Don't lose your temper at me. I'm just doing whatever my superiors order me to.
Order you? Kimura Shunji?
Didn't you know that a chief scarier than Kimura Shunji has arrived?
Goiso, what are you doing?!
Chief Murayama ordered us to thoroughly crack down on those wearing white.
Can't you see this is a funeral?
All of you get out!
Yes sir.
I'm sorry for the bad manners at a time of mourning.
Is anyone hurt?
Sick punks killing a perfectly fine person...
How do I live now?
What shall I do?
Dong Nyun.
Kimura Shunji, come speak with me.
Could it be... The things that happened between us, you didn't tell Mok Dan, did you?
Why?
You want to hide it?
Since you're saying that, I guess you have some sense of shame left.
Troupe Leader Jo... Don't bother him anymore.
When you disappeared, to find you, I no choice but to ask Leader Jo for help.
As long as you are by my side, why would I bother Leader Jo?
All right.
I will stay where I am so don't bother the circus members or Leader Jo anymore.
All right. Don't worry.
Your father...
Has he contacted you?
Even on the day of the execution, as you ordered, I didn't move from Sun Hwa's place.
You know what I'm doing 24 hours a day.
Do you still think I can meet Father?
If my father does contact me, I won't make a move.
There is nothing you can get from me.
Those punks who killed my father...
I thought there were just six of them who sold out Emperor Gojong
and his government-in-exile to the Japanese.
I thought only Kimura Taro was supporting them.
I never dreamed of them killing a top official in the nation.
Whether it's behind the Joseon military command, behind the troops in Guangdong (China),
or behind the far right, it must be that group
that is driving the Japanese islands into a militaristic madness.
What do you mean?
Right now in Japan, newspapers such as Asahi and Mainichi,
are actively instigating people into war.
War songs are sung like popular songs.
Among children, battle games are most popular.
All the people in Japan are surrounded by madness of war.
That kind of power behind Shunji...
I can handle a few people to avenge my father's death.
But how can I block them alone?
You are by no means alone.
To think that we have a high level officer of the Imperial Police on our side...
I feel we have gained a thousand troups and horses. You must endure it, no matter what.
Endure it and wait for me.
I understand.
You are coming back for sure?
Of course.
I will surely be back.
What did you say?
Konno has died and Lee Kang To wants to be a member.
What's the problem?
Lee Kang To is a Joseon person.
Count Lee Si Yong and President Park In Sam are all Joseon people.
They are only Kishokai's bullets, to be used if needed. But Lee Kang To is different.
What's different?
He is not an obedient Joseon person.
He is not the type to be tamed.
Anyway, I'm thinking of telling my father about Lee Kang To joining Kishokai.
From the beginning, why did you let him get near?
I think it is ridiculous that a Joseon person is working for the police.
I think you need to take care of it, Chief.
Of course.
Get on the same boat with a Joseon person who smells like garlic? Does it make sense?
I don't want a slacker among members of my force.
Lazy work ethics, absent without leave, incompetence,
repeatedly failing to catch Gaksital, and most importantly, being a Joseon person.
Sato Hiroshi is dismissed.
Leave Jongro Station right now!
