(Organizations and characters used in this drama are fictitious.)
Sa Ma Chun, his son, Sa Do Chan, and Grizzly.
They're all connected.
Do Chan firmly believes Grizzly murdered his father.
He thinks I murdered a man?
Joon Soo betrayed us.
He sold us out to Geum Tae Woong.
The king I was going to make.
Their target was the district prosecutor.
These punks.
It's all because of your incredible set-up.
- Joon Soo. - Ha Ra.
Did you do this even though you knew it would be dangerous?
How do you plan to handle it?
How did you find us...
(Episode 21)
I called Joon Soo here.
You con artists.
I was so worried that...
you sold your soul to the devil.
When I read the news that...
Do Chan took a bribe, it crossed my mind.
I thought that Geum Tae Woong had finally gotten us.
To turn the table around...
and to deceive Geum Tae Woong, I had no choice.
I'm sorry for not giving you a heads-up.
Thank you...
for not changing.
Thank you.
Joon Soo.
Joon Soo, are you all right?
What happened to the bug and the surveillance?
That was turned off too.
Mr. Kim, how could you be so sloppy?
What were you doing...
while a con artist came in and out as if this were his own house?
I'm sorry, sir.
If Baek Joon Soo colluded with the con artist...
and toyed with me...
Get him on the phone now.
Yes, sir.
After his car accident,
this heart valve was damaged severely...
and became constricted.
He received an artificial valve, but...
Don't let him overexert himself.
He needs absolute rest.
Geum Tae Woong.
I swear I'll make you stand trial.
(Geum Tae Woong)
It's Geum Tae Woong.
Hello, Mr. Geum. How may I help you?
I need to talk to you. Come over right now.
Right now?
I...
I'm not feeling well today, so...
Is that right? Then should I come to you?
No.
I can't make you come somewhere so shabby.
I'll come to you.
He's waiting.
I'm sorry it took me so long.
I'm not feeling very well.
I'm the one who's sorry for calling out a sick person.
Please have a seat.
I think I was too quick to believe you...
when you offered to be my horse in my chess game.
What were you doing while the king was being taken down?
You weren't reinforcement.
Things got even worse.
My apologies.
I didn't know Ha Ra knew about the murder.
You didn't know?
Then...
did you know about this?
The first time you came to me,
you said you'd give me Sa Do Chan,
and told me his address.
However, he had already bugged my office with this.
So, I started deducing.
What if you had schemed with Sa Do Chan from the start,
and were acting in front of me?
If that is the case,
the deal was never established to begin with.
Thus, I should smash the bishop on my chess board.
I was bugged as well.
I found out too late, and kicked myself.
It's understandable that you suspect me.
He toyed with us both?
The Faberge egg...
the Terracotta Army statues found in Mr. Jung's house.
I'm sure Do Chan was behind them.
I'm sorry I couldn't stop him,
but I promise, I will catch Do Chan.
I don't need an apology.
Let me give you a mission.
The former Prime Minister, Choi Jung Pil.
Cut off that old man's breathing tube.
Are you telling me to start a targeted investigation?
When I was a detective, I often created items...
and investigated targets accordingly.
It isn't very hard.
In order to indict a former Prime Minister,
there must be perceived violation of the law,
or the police must charge him.
I don't know about that.
I'll watch closely...
whether or not you fulfill the mission I gave you.
(Switch - Change the World)
(A Bird Flies With Two Wings)
How did it go?
We're safe for now.
If we want to catch Geum Tae Woong,
Baek Joon Soo must be in the Prosecutors' Office.
I got close to him and finally found out about Namsan Club.
If I disappear again,
our investigation will lose momentum.
Do another switch.
Please. Do it again, Do Chan.
From now on,
you are the real Baek Joon Soo.
(Baek Joon Soo, Supreme Prosecutors' Office)
(Prosecution Services)
What?
Does it seem unfamiliar because it's been so long?
Tie.
Glasses.
- Hair... - Okay.
Fine.
Gosh. I somehow became a prosecutor,
and had no choice but to become a prosecutor.
What do you mean?
At first, I somehow became a prosecutor because of you.
That was to steal the diamond.
But this time,
I had no choice but to become a prosecutor because of Joon Soo.
Do Chan. Maybe you were destined to become a prosecutor.
You somehow became one, and had no choice to become one.
I've only had a humble dream of living a quiet,
peaceful life running cons.
You can't let Mr. Yang know, okay?
Why? He was on our side.
Mr. Yang...
Let's keep it from him this time.
Shall we go?
Sure.
Hi, Mi Ran.
Good morning.
Hello, Mr. Baek.
He's back. He's really back.
It's been a while.
We saw you yesterday. What do you mean, it's been a while?
Even if it's only been one night, if you miss someone,
that night feels long.
How about drinks after work?
You've been so cold to us the past few days.
I was a little hurt.
I'm glad.
Joon Soo, you're talking more again.
People always change.
I guess you two made up?
You refused to even make eye contact yesterday.
There was a misunderstanding between us,
but we cleared it up.
We'll work together again as we did before,
so we'll need your help.
A relationship between a man and woman has its ups and downs.
My husband and I grew close through bickering all the time.
We're not close enough to have ups and downs.
Joon Soo, let's get back to work.
Everyone, get back to work.
Sure.
Ha Ra, you aren't ambitious at all.
How could a prosecutor go after another prosecutor?
Not just any prosecutor, but a former district prosecutor.
Does she think she can get ahead in this industry like that?
I get it. I mean, she's a simpleton with no connections.
She's the one who took down District Prosecutor Jung Do Young, right?
Is she that desperate to make a mark?
These days, young prosecutors can be quite vicious.
Isn't she trying so hard to make a name for herself?
What happened to the discipline among prosecutors these days?
Don't you respect authority the district prosecutor holds?
That's enough.
The authority the district prosecutor holds...
has become a way of abusing its power.
Did you not know?
You little...
Everyone, sit.
Unfortunately, due to the recent incident,
the public has lost their trust in our organization.
Everyone, don't forget your duty...
and make sure you behave.
- Yes, ma'am. - Yes, ma'am.
When Ha Ra and I had to investigate the district prosecutor,
we proceeded the plan without you.
I'm sorry for not telling you in advance.
I understand.
I had an ulterior motive when I approached Geum Tae Woong.
I had to return to my post...
and reveal the connection between Jung Do Young and him.
Anyway, I'm sorry for not telling you in advance.
No, no. Don't be. Ha Ra briefed me.
Anyway, everything has come back to normal.
Thank you, Joon Soo.
All right. Now, let's catch Grizzly.
- Yes, sir. - Okay.
You may go.
Oh, right.
By the way, a few days ago,
I complimented Do Chan, but I was so wrong.
Forget about that.
So you complimented Do Chan?
I didn't hear it because I was thinking something else.
What exactly did you say?
I just said that he's very friendly...
and cute when he's trying to be cheeky.
I said that had he passed the bar and become a prosecutor,
he would've easily been able to become 1 of the best 5 prosecutors.
Don't take what I said seriously.
No.
I completely agree with your assessment.
Sir, you are indeed the best.
I told you to be careful. Stop being reckless.
Why?
Chief Yang is a great judge of character.
I'm friendly...
and cute when I try to be cheeky.
Namsan Club's meeting is today, right?
Yes, since Joon Soo set it up nicely,
I just need to get in and draw them out.
Joon Soo told you the details, right?
Geum Tae Woong and Namsan Club.
Let's put them in one basket and get rid of them at once.
Okay.
Hong Gi Seok, the president of Development Bank.
Joo Ki Young, the director of JK Group.
This is the background information on members of Namsan Club.
My gosh, hello, Mr. Baek.
Song Jung Hyuk, the editor in chief of Mugung Daily.
How have you been, Mr. Song.
Take a seat.
I presume you've been well?
The chairman of Boram Private Foundation's grandson,
Lee Gi Jung.
Please be seated.
As you all know, the former district prosecutor,
Jung Do Young was arrested on a scandalous charge.
I didn't expect a lot from him anyway.
To become a king, he's not as strong-willed.
He's too small of a man to become a king too.
Then do we have a replacement?
What about Mr. Baek?
In Europe, young politicians are trending.
President of France and the prime minister of Canada are in their 40s.
In 10 years, it might be possible.
- Why don't we drink to it? - Okay.
To Mr. Baek in his 40s.
Did you hand over the shares of K Savings Bank to Mr. Geum?
I'm in the process of handing them over.
- K Savings Bank? - Yes.
Initially, those shares were Mr. Choi's,
but Mr. Geum took over.
He probably wants to make Mr. Choi a toothless tiger this time.
I heard that Mr. Choi founded our club.
Do you think he will let that happen?
Probably not.
I think he's trying to make a comeback...
with Door to the Underworld.
"Door to the Underworld"?
Viktor Jang.
He's the CEO of Kijev Limited, a Russian company.
He was listed under top 100 entrepreneurs...
of 2017 in the Forbes.
That's the Door to the Underworld?
Korea doesn't import the natural gas from Turkmenistan yet.
If there's a way to import it,
it's guaranteed...
to hike the profit by a hundred fold.
Do Chan, let's invest in that.
How much do we need?
My gosh.
Something is behind the Door to the Underworld.
We'll hit a jackpot or see a clever architect.
He's the attorney for the district prosecutor.
Thank you. Leave the room for a moment.
Yes, sir.
Please take a seat.
As a matter of fact, I'm looking into his health...
from different angles.
He should be released soon, don't you agree?
My client wanted me to relay this message.
He said if his request for help is denied,
he will ask someone else.
And if that happens,
he said there will be no secrets.
I see.
He asked you to answer it quickly.
I will send him a present very soon.
We have a problem.
Jung Do Young has committed suicide.
The former district prosecutor, Jung Do Young...
who was detained in Hangang Detention Center...
was found dead in the office of the detention center.
As there are no signs of a murder,
it is speculated to be a suicide.
When the suspicion of murdering a smuggler six years ago...
was brought upon him, the former district prosecutor...
was under great pressure regarding the impending criminal trial.
It's speculated that the pressure was the cause of his suicide.
My gosh. How...
My goodness, that jerk...
Did you hear? The district prosecutor is dead.
High status means nothing.
He faced an ugly death after he got greedy.
Anyway, I don't get it.
("Former District Prosecutor Is Found Dead in Detention Center")
Good job.
It's a shame, but what can I do?
I must get rid of pieces I can't use.
What's happening with the bank?
Mr. Choi's supporters were forced to step back.
I employed a new group of executives.
All you need to do is take the office.
I see.
Have you located Sa Do Chan yet?
I think he moved to another hideout.
I'll put more men on it.
What about Sung Doo?
Find him.
He worked with them,
so he may be useful for us.
Yes, sir.
(Jung Do Young)
Including Jung Do Young today,
these are the people who were involved with Grizzly...
and were killed since we began investigating the drug smuggling.
(Gye Choon Shik)
The commonality is suicide. To be more exact,
murder with a clear motive, disguised as suicide.
That's Grizzly's MO.
He seems knowledgeable about the law.
He confuses the investigation from the start.
He knows how to boldly deceive people.
There's nothing to preclude there being another victim.
He's like a serial killer.
When a crazy man takes the steering wheel,
you must hit him if necessary to drag him out.
That's the only way to prevent further damage.
That's right.
(Feel Gallery, Geum Tae Woong)
Thief! Hey!
Welcome, sir.
Congratulations.
Thank you. Let's go in.
(Chief Director)
(Chief Director, Geum Tae Woong)
I'll stop by once or twice a week for updates.
You should just continue performing your duties as you have been.
- Yes, sir. - Okay.
Tae Woong, that punk.
He took over my bank?
No. My bank.
My bank. That...
Kill that jerk Tae Woong, and let him burn for eternity!
Call that prosecutor Baek Joon Soo discretely,
and tell him I want to meet.
Tell him to meet me for lunch tomorrow.
Yes, sir.
Why that...
I'm sure you're sore.
Do you think I can't protect myself, that I need a bodyguard?
I'm so busy.
A con artist, a prosecutor, and a bodyguard.
I didn't ask you to walk me home.
I said not to worry, and to go home.
I'm doing this because I have no choice.
Because Joon Soo asked me to.
Bye.
Goodness. Hello, Mr. Baek.
Please, come this way.
It's been a while, Mr. Prime Minister.
I have...
a confession...
to make to you.
The 100 million dollars that disappeared...
from K Savings Bank.
I instructed him to put that together.
However, that bank president committed suicide,
and that money disappeared.
I am a prosecutor.
What you just said...
may be used in court against you.
Why are you telling me this, knowing that?
I need to come clean...
and be honest about what I'm keeping inside,
so that you can trust me.
That money...
Geum Tae Woong took that money.
I threw that money, the 100 million dollars,
into my evil son-in-law's mouth.
I've been keeping an eye on you for a while.
I believe that you are a wise and competent prosecutor.
Please...
prosecute this case.
May I ask why you were putting together...
that 100 million dollars?
It was for a contract.
It was to gain exclusivity for the business of developing...
an all-natural gas from Turkmenistan.
If that business takes off,
I will make billions in profits.
I will give you enough for you to live on comfortably...
for the rest of your life.
Gosh. Whenever it's bass season,
mugwort grows...
on that hill over there.
When I was young,
every year around this time,
my father would bring home bass,
and my mother would pick mugwort and make a stew with the bass.
It was so delicious.
Okay, okay. Please eat. I'm sure it is delicious.
- Yes, sir. - Okay.
Prime Minister Choi met with whom?
He met with Baek Joon Soo.
They met alone for lunch at a Japanese restaurant.
Baek Joon Soo...
must be scheming something with him.
That's good.
This will be a good way to test him for sure.
Tell him to come by after work, and that I need to talk to him.
Don't let him catch on.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Kim.
What do you think is the worst torture possible?
I haven't thought about it.
The worst possible torture is...
living in a world without anyone to love...
without a single person to trust. That's the worst. Don't you agree?
If I put the teacup to my mouth, that is the sign.
Don't hesitate. Strike him.
Yes, sir.
Baek Joon Soo should be arriving soon.
Let's go up.
I'm so busy. Who is he to order me to come and go as he pleases?
Thank you.
What do you like, Mr. Baek?
I would like to treat you to a nice meal.
I usually have my meals in the cafeteria at work.
Did you have lunch there today too?
I would like to have a meal there.
What was today's menu?
It was mugwort soup.
Since it's in season, it was quite fragrant.
It was delicious.
I had sea bass sashimi...
and mugwort soup with rice.
You had sea bass sashimi...
in the cafeteria?
