Wearing a trench coat and sunglasses with a matchstick in his mouth,
he rescues his friend while all bandaged up.
Wasn't Chow Yun-fat's image quite memorable?
The last song for today
is from Hong Kong's legendary film that depicts the deep friendship of men.
Here's "Mark's Theme" from the soundtrack of A Better Tomorrow.
INN
That's not him.
Sir, I feel like today's going to be another bust.
Do you really think Il-sik will show up here?
This shit comes with the job.
2011, DAEJEON
I want to take a nap after having grilled eel with soju.
Grilled eel...
Sounds good.
INN
We located the suspect, Shin Il-sik. Please send backup.
Let's go.
Sir.
Let's wait for backup!
If they get high, we won't be able to take them down on our own.
The Special Crime Squad is coming soon!
And let them take all the credit?
Jong-chul, if we also catch Popeye through Il-sik,
we'll get to go home in glory.
Let's go in.
Shit.
Il-sik! Long time no see!
-What's that? -Put down the sword. Put it down!
You brought an ax?
Il-sik! Stop! Freeze, you punk!
Sorry, Detective Choe! We need to grab a drink sometime.
Sit back down, you punk!
I'm really busy right now.
I have to get going.
Take care!
Stay still!
Sir! Go after Il-sik!
Cuff him!
Farewell!
Salute!
Jong-chul!
Jong-chul! Stay with me!
Jong-chul!
I'm... I'm sorry.
Please don't kill me.
I'm sorry. I didn't know anything.
Help me.
He says he didn't know it was meth.
He has no criminal records.
And he was on an ocean liner for three years.
It turns out
the poor guy just got unlucky.
Was it really your first time meeting those punks?
And you've never heard of Popeye either?
No, sir. I really don't know anything.
I was just told to deliver a bag.
STATEMENT OF IDENTITY
Kijang is your hometown?
I know everyone there.
Yes, I lived there until I was seven.
You have two daughters and a son.
Why do you have so many kids when you don't even earn that much?
So are there five people in your family including your wife?
My wife left me three years ago.
And I haven't heard from her since.
But my mother lives with us.
How old is she?
She's 72 years old, sir.
She has diabetes and can't move well.
Sir, could you help me just this once?
If I go to prison,
who's going to take care of my kids and mother?
I can't go.
Please help me.
I understand your situation.
But a cop got stabbed, and that's a serious issue.
If you confess as I told you,
you'll be out in two years.
Yes, sir.
If you say anything stupid, you'll end up getting a longer sentence.
Do you understand?
-Yes, sir. -Sir.
The transport bus is waiting. They want him out of here.
You punk, we should let him eat first!
Why can't they be a little considerate, for fuck's sake?
It's okay. Eat up.
Yes, sir.
Go on.
I know this may sound shameless, but can I ask you for a favor, sir?
What is it?
This is for my mother and kids since I never got to say goodbye to them.
Okay. Don't worry.
I'll never forget your kindness. Thank you, sir.
How's Jong-chul doing?
He's out of surgery,
but he's still unconscious.
They're going to gather the disciplinary committee soon.
Inspector Choe Dae-ho ignored the command system
and lost a prime suspect because of his arbitrary actions.
Thus, he is fired based on the regulations.
DAEJEON POST OFFICE
To my beloved family...
I hope you are well, Mother.
I miss when our family of seven used to all live together.
I'm sorry I couldn't take better care of you and Father
because I was so busy with work.
Something came up, so I have to be away for two years.
Please tell my beloved son and two daughters that I'm very sorry.
The weather is so damn nice.
5 YEARS LATER, KIJANG, BUSAN, 2016
RESCUE 911
-What's that? -Let him ride.
It'll only cause trouble if you mess with him.
-You should greet him later. -Who is he?
Nothing gets done here without going through him.
He's like our town sheriff.
Look, Chief Choe. Kang-gon has it rough these days.
The parasol rental business last year and the tube rental this year.
The marine veterans took them all!
He had a few drinks because he lost his business.
He slept for two hours before he drove.
But a license suspension? It's not fair! What's going to happen to him now?
He delivers water bottles for a living, but he can't even work anymore.
Since when did the people of Kijang become so cold-hearted?
You punk, you're in a complete mess.
I'm sorry.
I don't know why I did that.
Chief, I don't mean to burden you.
Lee Kang-gon.
Do you know what you did wrong?
You didn't come to me first to tell me about your problems.
That was your biggest mistake.
I stopped being a cop a while ago.
But I can easily take care of civil petitions like this.
Right.
Cheer up, pal.
Yes, Chief. Thank you!
There you go! He's finally smiling.
Thanks, Chief Choe.
-You're the best! -I'm off!
What are you doing in front of someone else's car?
You startled me.
This foreign car looked a bit suspicious.
-What's that? -It's an extract
made with knotweed.
It apparently helps stop hair loss.
We should start preparing.
Cut the nonsense, you punk.
There are no baldies in my family!
We just have big foreheads.
Really? Then forget it.
You already brought it, so just leave it there.
I'll give it to Deok-man.
Okay, then.
You have to apply it to your hair. Don't drink it.
DEOK-MAN
NC Dinos has won seven straight games against Lotte...
Gosh, I can't believe they lost again!
It's over this year!
You should also switch over to NC.
That will keep you sane.
Stop! My gosh!
Just don't help if you don't want to.
My gosh, the kimchi smells amazing!
I'm hungry.
Honey, did you boil some pork meat?
Pork meat, my foot.
I might as well just boil you.
You're never at the store. Where do you always run off to all day?
Exactly. He always slacks off while we work all day.
It's not fair!
My gosh, why is it so hot today?
Honey, do you have any rice left?
Dad, just go to your room and get dressed.
"Watch out!"
"Wait!"
-Will you save me like him? -Of course. I'm a man.
Like hell...
Shoot him! Bang!
"Chow Yun-fat! Help!"
DO MY BEST IN EVERYTHING
Who dropped this big one?
Here you go, ma'am! Nice catch!
What a big catch!
-Chief Choe! -See you later!
My gosh, those anchovies look good!
Hello, sir.
Where's Deok-man? Why isn't he working?
He left a while ago to go to the bank
and hasn't come back ever since.
That fool! Not again!
Here. You can't get this anywhere.
Try it.
No, you eat it.
My gosh, you guys. Why would you drink in broad daylight?
We have our reasons.
Hey, why aren't you working at the store?
Oh, right. I was just about to go.
My goodness, you fool.
Hey, Sophie Marceau of Kijang.
What's with the long face?
You see, the thing is, Hee-soon
opened up a bar with her alimony,
but her business isn't going very well, and she's suffering!
I didn't ask you! Get your hands off her! What is wrong with you, old man?
Why you...
It's peak season. What's wrong?
I have no one to talk to about this.
It's seriously driving me crazy.
Some new guy from Ulsan
opened up a Gangnam-style karaoke bar.
They have Russian girls there.
And he must have some connections at the borough office.
So he gets away with everything.
I lost all my regulars.
I can't compete with him since I have no connections.
Would you like a drink?
Did you look into it?
They're in room number nine.
Is it your treat tonight, sir?
A mission to save the civilians!
What is this? Where's your warrant?
What warrant? Fuck that shit.
Detective Lee! Let's go!
-Come on, Detective Bae! -Let's go.
What a party!
Sit down, everyone!
We're special detectives from Department Number Seven
of the Special Riot Department in Busan Police Station.
-What are you doing there? -I found two here!
Go sit down.
-Come inside. -Sit down.
-Get over here. -Goodness, you guys are working so hard.
Let's have a talk.
Aren't they illegal aliens?
No, they all have passports and health cards.
Do you know Mr. Jang who works at the borough office?
Of course.
We're like brothers.
My goodness.
Well...
He violated the Prostitution Act and the Immigration Control Act.
And he even just committed bribery.
You all saw him give me money, right?
-Right? -Yes, we did.
-Yes. -Yes.
While we talk,
you should all follow the detectives outside. Move, please.
-Move it! -Come on!
Freeze!
What's that? Bring it to me.
Just a moment!
-What's this? -What is that?
Here.
-Get out. -Go.
-Come on. -Let me go.
-Shut up! -That hurts!
-Go on. -It hurts.
Chief Kang, I called you ages ago. What took you so long?
You must've gotten lucky seeing that you sound so confident.
I didn't get lucky. I just have the intuition of a cop.
Every cop in Busan has experience in investigating drugs.
Chief, I'll send the evidence over to the Special Crime Squad.
Okay.
There's no point in doing that.
Sir, by the looks of it, I can guarantee that it's Popeye's stuff.
Where's that bastard right now?
Rumors say he works in Japan.
But who knows? Meth always travels around.
BUSAN KIJANG POLICE STATION
But I'm the one who helped start this investigation!
Yes, I know that.
But if Chief Kang finds out, I'm dead.
It's Popeye's stuff, right?
What the fuck are you looking at?
-Yes. -Fuck. I knew it.
They say his stuff is getting smuggled out to Japan and China as well.
Not only is he making them, but he's also exporting them?
I guess this is what you call a creative economy.
And there's also this guy named Shin Il-sik.
He used to only deal Popeye's stuff,
but he apparently appeared in Incheon recently.
Did you just say Shin Il-sik?
Yes.
IS METH BACK IN KOREA?
Gosh, my skin is glowing today.
How's my big boy?
Honey, come on.
Are you sleeping?
My gosh! Seriously!
You're always busy wasting your energy somewhere else!
My gosh!
Beach Town?
Push.
Who's the owner?
He's apparently a businessman from Seoul.
I heard he's loaded.
They remodeled the building, and it looks pretty nice.
Just like that new supermarket owner who sold big and left after six months,
we're worried that he'll take what's good and then just leave.
The mall will open eventually.
Chief Choe, you should be the co-op president
to make the retailers feel at ease.
Let's worry about that later.
We should at least do what we can.
-We can't let him come in easily. -Exactly.
Have a drink, sir.
You all saw how gangsters can be on the news, right?
They're not going to be easy to deal with!
We must scare them!
-You need to look determined, okay? -What is this for?
Why are we doing this?
-Let's do this! -It's better than nothing.
Will you please respond?
Get your tools. Hand them out.
Hand them out.
-What's this for? -Here.
-Take it. -Why is the crowd so small?
What can we do with them?
And why did you gather the elders? It's really hot outside.
We needed more people.
They came for a couple dollars.
-Who's going to pay them? -Sun-chul.
-That crazy fool! -Okay, everyone.
Plus, the shipowners all went to work.
They need to make a living.
This won't work!
When is this going to end?
Sir, the Beach Town folks are coming through the back door.
Damn it. I haven't even met them yet, and I'm already angry.
I want all of you to wait here for now!
-Follow me. -Yes, sir.
Let's go.
My gosh, the tension is crazy today!
Shut up and stay at the very back.
Choe Dae-ho. Not you again.
We already got the permit.
Do you think this is the 80s or something?
Look at yourselves. What is this?
Shut up.
Forget the damn permit.
The people don't want it.
-That's right! -Take a look!
You'd better cut the bullshit.
Get out of here before I beat you to a pulp.
-Leave. -My gosh, you little jerk.
Hey, you punk. You were such a bad student back in the day.
-Why are you disrespecting me? -Hey, stop it! Don't film this!
Put the camera down!
-You damn jerk. -Get out of here.
-Keep filming. -Come here!
-Darn you! -You bastard!
Yes, governor. Thank you so much.
Take care, sir.
-Over there, sir. -You little...
I'm sorry. I should've come earlier to say hello.
Nice to meet you. I'm Koo Jong-jin.
It's hot outside, so why don't we go in...
Excuse me.
Excuse me. I'm sorry,
but are you Detective Choe?
You're... You're Detective Choe, right?
My gosh, let... Let go.
In order to find you,
I searched all the police stations in the entire country.
And this is where we meet?
First, allow me to bow.
-What are you doing, sir? -My gosh.
You... You must have the wrong guy!
Don't you remember me, sir?
We met five years ago at Daejeon Police Station.
Well...
How am I supposed to explain this?
The... The sundae soup, sir.
You bought me sundae soup
and told me to pull myself together.
Are you...
You're...
It... It's you?
Yes.
You're that mule, right?
Yes, I'm that mule.
Detective, I'm living so well thanks to you.
Oh, my goodness.
My goodness. Thank you, Lord.
Gosh, how have you been?
The name of your company is Samho Food?
That's right, sir.
When I was in prison, I studied Sasang constitutional medicine.
-I see. -One thing led to another,
and my fermented soybean pills ended up getting approved by the FDA
and became a huge success on a home shopping channel.
I was really lucky.
Okay, well...
It's good to see that you've become so successful.
Drink up!
Sir, you have dark circles,
and your complexion is really dark.
May I see your tongue?
Your tongue. Let me see it.
It's okay. Let me take a look at it.
Can you stick out your tongue?
I need to see the inside.
Stick your tongue out a bit more.
Wait.
Hold on, sir.
Okay, wait.
-What are you doing? -It hurts, right?
It means you have a really bad liver.
You have a yang-deficient constitution.
Stuff like this is poison to people like you. Don't eat them.
It's okay. It all comes with age.
You've aged so much, sir.
My gosh, hey.
Your shoulders are really tense.
-What are you doing? Stop it. -Sir.
I'll take care of your health no matter what.
Just don't push me away.
I just need to massage this part.
My gosh, stop overreacting.
Oh, wait. Just a moment, sir.
Hello, Mr. Gwak.
Oh, right. I totally forgot.
Yes, I know. Okay, I'll be on my way.
I'm so sorry, sir.
What is it?
I forgot I had a meeting with some clients.
At this hour?
They're Japanese. It must be urgent.
-My gosh. -They say meth
is getting smuggled out to Japan and China as well.
Goodness.
I can come right back.
Will you wait for me?
No, it's okay. We can meet some other day.
Go on.
I'm so sorry, sir.
I'll get going.
Bye.
SAMHO FOOD, CEO KOO JONG-JIN
Meth is going around and a dealer is here?
What a coincidence.
METH FOUND IN BUSAN BARS
EMERALD METH? IS POPEYE BACK?
SHIN, THE NOTORIOUS DRUG DEALER AT WORK
Why is he calling me so late at night?
Hi, Jong-jin.
Did you get home well, sir?
I couldn't focus on work after having left you like that.
Well, work is more important.
I never thought we'd meet like this.
Sir, I promise I'll repay you for your kindness.
-Okay. Hey, Jong-jin. -Yes?
But the thing is...
I was sleeping.
Really? I'm so sorry for waking you up, sir.
Then I'll call you tomorrow, sir.
-Okay, bye. -Goodnight.
METH GETS EXPORTED ABROAD
CEO GREETING, KOO JONG-JIN
How could he get that rich in just three years
by selling fermented soybeans?
Only spies and drug dealers can get that rich
in such a short time in Korea.
Stop talking nonsense, and go back to working at the restaurant.
Deok-man can't even distinguish the difference between pork and beef.
Forget my restaurant.
Isn't it fishy
that meth is suddenly all around Busan?
My gosh, seriously. Salute!
Why is he here?
He even had lunch yesterday with the members of the city assembly.
Why would a guy like him deal drugs?
He's wearing long sleeves in this hot weather.
I bet his arm is covered with needle marks.
He's a businessman. He obviously wouldn't dress like a bum.
Fine, I'll report him to the Special Crime Squad.
What?
They're obligated to start investigating if they receive a report on drugs.
Why you!
Then bring me the evidence!
Needle marks or whatever! I need something to start investigating.
Do you promise?
Don't go back on your word.
Fine.
-Hello, sir. -Thank you for your hard work.
Bye.
Jong-jin!
Detective Choe! You're still here?
-You must be busy. -Just a little bit.
How are things going with Beach Town?
I'm trying to make things work, but it's harder than I thought.
People don't seem to trust me very much.
It's hard to earn people's trust.
So I've been thinking.
How about you play soccer with us the day after tomorrow?
-Soccer? -Yes.
You can get to know our community.
You need to be able to connect with the guys, you know?
We can all play soccer together, have a great time,
and go to a sauna afterwards.
-A sauna. -Sure.
I'll go wherever you'll have me, sir.
Thank you so much for caring about me.
I really love you, sir!
Don't mention it.
-We should help each other out. -Right.
Then I'll see you on Sunday.
Okay, sir.
-Bye! -Take care, sir!
Go on!
Have a nice day!
Breathe in, sir!
Why is that Seoul good-for-nothing even here?
And what the hell is he doing?
I'm pretty sure Chief Choe invited him.
I heard they even had expensive sushi last night.
-Sushi? -Yes.
Fuck... What's happening to the neighborhood?
Move!
-Chief Choe. -Yes?
I know you'd never do such a thing,
but let me ask you something.
Are you teaming up with that punk
to sell Beach Town?
What do you mean?
Come on. I'm Choe Dae-ho.
Block the baldy!
-That's it! -Hey!
Go! Sun-chul!
Pass!
Pass it!
Pass! You fool!
Pass the ball!
Pass it, you crazy punk!
Pass!
Don't do it alone! Pass!
Will you please pass the ball? Hey!
-Nice job, Mr. Koo! Nice! -Get in there!
-Pass! -Chief Choe!
-Pass the ball! -Shoot.
Score!
Way to go!
Goal!
What are you even doing here?
-Goal! -Nice!
What an incredible team.
-Yes! -Nice!
Deok-man, you saw him, right?
My gosh, Detective Choe plays like Messi.
You're pretty good yourself.
-Me? -You're so tall and fit.
-Goodness. -Do you work out?
No, not really.
He's wearing an arm brace in a bathhouse?
I do a little boxing as a hobby.
-Oh, really? -Boxing?
That's great for fighting.
Judo is the best for fighting.
Boxing, my ass. Listen to me.
If Chief Choe catches hold of anyone, they're all toast!
Yes, of course. You're right.
Detective Choe is a known fighter.
I don't stand a chance against him.
Jong-jin, what's that on your arm? Did you get injured?
Oh, this? I've always had a bad elbow.
This helps with the pain.
Really? I have a bad arm, too.
That must help a lot. Can I try it on?
I'll get you one, sir.
No, let me try it first to see if it really works or not.
What's so hard about taking that off?
No, it's just I sweated in it all day. It won't be very clean.
It's okay. Let's see.
I'll get you a new one. I have a new one at home.
-Stay still. -Detective Choe, wait.
-Wait! That tickles! -Hold still!
-Sir, I'll just give you one! -Wait!
-Stay still. -What a beautiful sight!
What are you so excited about?
I mean, let's be honest here.
We're not exactly close enough to be bathing with him.
Of course not.
I'm sorry if I've upset you.
I was so happy to meet you guys. And we even won the game.
While we're on the subject, may I treat you guys to some drinks?
-Really? -Yes, let's take a shower and go.
Let's go. It's my treat. Come on.
-Mr. Koo. -Yes?
During my entire life in Kijang,
investors always came to make money and left once they had their fun.
But they never once did any good for our town.
You tell him.
I'm sorry to interrupt, but I'm also from Kijang.
This is your hometown?
Yes, I lived here until I was seven.
You know that, Detective Choe. Why don't you tell them?
Well, that's what it said on his documents.
But...
So what if you were born here?
You have to live here to call it your home. Don't you agree?
-Aren't I right? -Right.
Chief Choe, I get that you're acquainted, but let's not mix business with pleasure.
My goodness. Please... Please don't do this.
I feel like I put Detective Choe in an awkward position.
If I'm making things difficult for you,
I'll just give up on Beach Town.
It's not my main business anyway.
I don't even gain that much from buying Beach Town.
I'll meet the governor tomorrow and have everything taken care of.
I'll cancel the deal, so let's not talk about it.
Well...
Choon-mo, I heard you install air conditioners.
Yes, that's right.
I need some for my factory. Could you install them for me?
Really? How many do you need?
My factory is not that big. But I think I might need
about 100.
What? 100?
Is that too little?
No... No! It's fine.
I'll write up an estimate.
-Here's my card. -Thank you.
May I have yours?
I don't have it with me right now. I'll give it to you later.
My gosh, 100?
Choon-mo, you barely sold ten this year.
Mr. Koo, your factory must be pretty big.
It's not that big, sir.
Still...
Do you need water purifiers by any chance?
Of course, I do.
That's great.
Kang-gon, the guy sitting next to you, sells water purifiers.
I actually run a small business selling water purifiers.
Oh, really? I met with another company this morning,
but it doesn't matter. I'll call you tomorrow about it.
Thank you.
-May I also have your card later? -Sure.
Of course.
What a pity. I wish I ran a business.
I guess I'll just drink.
Detective Choe, excuse me. I need to go to the bathroom.
Sure. Go on.
I'll bring my cards.
Okay.
My gosh, Choon-mo hit the jackpot!
What?
Gosh, this is nuts.
This is disgusting. We blocked all the toilets here.
What are you going to do with Mr. Koo's urine?
If you're so suspicious of him, just report him!
I need evidence first.
And this is a drug case.
Securing evidence is especially important when it comes to drug cases.
We need to work as a team.
Didn't you see the look in Hee-soon's eyes?
She's head over heels for Mr. Koo.
He's not her type.
Hee-soon loves it when a guy has money and looks like he's from Seoul.
Her ex-husband was like that.
You should protect her this time.
I'll help you out.
-Fine! Don't do it! -Wait!
Will you do it?
This means he's clean, right?
I'm definitely sure
that he's hiding something.
Deok-man, we'll have to come up with a different idea.
Let's get some coffee.
Sure.
This is the best way to distribute meth.
If we find at least one or two boxes of meth,
that'd be a huge deal for us.
I'll search that truck. You search this one. Got it?
-Are you heading out now? -Yes, sir.
-Drive safely. -Thanks.
-Did you guys drink coffee? -Yes, we did.
-Work hard. -Yes, sir.
FERMENTED SOYBEANS
Deok-man, you need to stay focused.
Make sure you don't get caught.
I'm losing it.
I really am.
FERMENTED SOYBEANS
SEOUL
Are you nuts?
I can't believe you drank all night.
Where's Deok-man?
FERMENTED SOYBEANS
SAMHO FOOD
You fool!
What did you say to Mr. Koo?
The county office was a mess yesterday because of you!
Do you have to get on my ass early in the morning?
The governor had to beg Mr. Koo
not to cancel Beach Town.
Beach Town didn't get canceled?
Beach Town is going to happen no matter what.
That jerk!
My gosh, he is unbelievable. That bastard is good!
-I-- -Listen, you fool!
If you do this again, I really won't stay still. Okay?
CEO GREETING, KOO JONG-JIN
Mr. Koo. Hello.
Hi, Sun-chul.
-Is that so? -Yes.
Take a look at this.
It's already a big hit in Japan.
KIJANG MARKET
It's a massager.
My goodness.
I tried using it, and it was great.
My goodness. You really didn't have to.
Let go of me.
I raised my children as a single father, so I learned a lot of stuff
including hand acupuncture and...
JAZZ KARAOKE ROOM
APPOINTMENT CEREMONY OF KIJANG'S HONORARY AMBASSADOR
Thumbs up!
No premium, no acquisition tax, and no property tax.
We can save money by running a business here.
Isn't that right, Yong-hwan?
Times have changed, ma'am. No one comes here anymore.
Business will go up at Beach Town.
It's a great deal. Most of the merchants are buying.
You should think about it, sir.
We can't lose with Beach Town.
-I'll do my best. -We trust you, Mr. Koo.
Gosh, you even helped me convince Yong-hwan.
-I'm seriously out of words. Thank you. -Please!
-I really look forward to this. -Great.
There's a French guy named Charles Talleyrand.
And this is what he said about coffee.
“Black as the devil,
pure as an angel,
hot as hell, sweet as love.”
Hee-soon? Do you like teddy bears?
What?
This is art!
BEACH TOWN GRAND OPENING
FOR A BETTER AND GLOBAL KIJANG
I can't believe this is really happening.
Chief Choe, I don't know what to say.
I mean, who knew people would suddenly all like it?
I wonder who helped change people's minds.
It was probably the town ladies who swooned over Mr. Koo.
Oh, right. Deok-man told me that he received some good quality meat.
Let's get it over with and have a few drinks afterwards.
Don't worry.
Listen up, everyone.
As I announced earlier, we will be voting for the first president
of our retailers' co-op today.
Any nominations?
There's no need for that.
Chief Choe should do it.
-Right! -What are you saying?
Just stay still.
Who knows our town better than him?
And he always helped us voluntarily with all kinds of stuff.
-Right? -That's right!
Therefore, I nominate Choe Dae-ho to be the president.
-I agree! -Me too!
Okay, thank you. Chief Choe Dae-ho has become a candidate.
Okay, then. Anyone else?
Hey, wait. Hold on.
-How about Mr. Koo? -My gosh, no.
Beach Town got established because of him.
And he's a businessman with great connections.
Please! No! I don't even know much about Kijang.
I think Detective Choe should be the president.
He says he doesn't want to do it, so Chief Choe should be the president.
Then Chief Choe will be our only nominee.
Come on!
I nominate Mr. Koo!
-What are you doing? -Come on!
Okay, then. Based on a democratic process,
-we now have two candidates. -It's okay.
Now, let's hear the two candidates' speeches.
My goodness, there's no need for a speech.
We all know each other here.
Everyone here is like a family.
We should all just vote for whomever we have in mind.
-You're right. -Just skip it.
Should we do that? Then let's just start voting.
Wait!
-You should make a speech. -No, please!
-Come on. Say something! -What are you doing?
Everyone knows him,
but they don't know you.
Come on up, then. Let's hurry up.
-What? -Thank you.
Okay, then.
I'm already honored and grateful that I got nominated.
I wouldn't call this a speech but...
-Would it be okay, Detective Choe? -Sure. Go ahead.
I once heard this.
Do you all know the word "change"?
It's an English word. Change.
Change...
It means to modify or become different.
But from this word...
If we just erase this,
it turns into the word "chance" which means opportunity.
Think about it, everyone.
Haeundae is right in front of us.
And it has become a world-class tourist spot.
Who says Kijang can't become just like that?
CHOE DAE-HO
CHOE DAE...
KOO JONG-JIN
Do we have the results?
Here comes the envelope.
I will announce the results!
The winner is...
It was a really close race!
-You won for sure, Chief! -Okay, well...
He knows the locals better than anyone,
and I know him very well, too.
-You totally won. -I think the right candidate won.
The president of our co-op is...
I'm sure he'll work hard for the harmony and prosperity of our business
-in Beach Town... -Stop stalling and announce the winner!
-Okay. -Seriously.
Now, I'll really announce the winner.
Our first co-op president is...
The ace of Kijang FC!
-Nice! -You won!
-You did it. -Quickly.
-He won. -My goodness.
It's Mr. Koo Jong-jin! Please give him a round of applause.
-Give him a big hand! -Get up.
Get up, Mr. Koo!
Hurray!
Change!
Really?
KOO JONG-JIN
-Gee, gee, gee -My goodness, stop teasing me.
Let's go get some food and drinks now!
You all know Deok-man's restaurant, right?
Everyone, today's the hottest day of the year.
So how about we have some chicken soup? I made reservations at a nice restaurant.
Chicken soup sounds great.
-Sir, we're a total of ten people. -I'm sorry.
We're all booked for today.
Please come again next time.
-But we're a big group. -Let's just have cold raw fish soup.
-Let's go. -My gosh.
Why aren't they picking up?
RETAILERS' CO-OP PRESIDENT, CHOE DAE-HO
-Have a drink, sir. -Thank you.
The right president was chosen.
-No, it was a close race. -Oh, come on.
Why aren't you reacting?
Chief, what are you doing here?
Come join us. You're making us feel awkward.
Get lost, you punk.
Gosh, come on.
It really was a close race!
Do you know by how many votes he won?
Just one vote.
I was so shocked! How could that even happen?
I couldn't believe my eyes.
Plus, he didn't get picked because he's all that.
People only voted for him because he's close with you.
So just have a drink and forget about it.
Cut the crap, you arrogant little twerp!
Who do you think you are to tell me what to do?
-How dare you? -This is trouble.
What's wrong with you?
My goodness.
Do you even know what he used to do?
Do you? That punk...
He...
Stop it, Chief Choe. You're drunk.
Choon-mo, hurry up and take him home.
-Okay. Let's go. -Go on.
Let me go, you punk. I'm not drunk.
-Hey. -Let go.
-Go home. -Sir.
Hey, let go! I'm not drunk!
-Sir. -Let go of me!
Let go of me, you punk!
Detective Choe!
-Is he okay? -Sir, are you okay?
-Chief! -My gosh.
-Mr. Gwak, please have the car ready. -Okay.
-Let's go. -Just stay here.
-I'll go with him. I have to go. -No, don't.
Don't worry. Choon-mo will take care of him.
You should stay here, Mr. Koo. Come on.
-But I should go. -It's okay.
Take him back to his seat. Come on.
Okay, everyone. How about a toast
-to our new president? -Let's do that. What a mess.
For our new president.
-Cheers! -Cheers!
You stupid jerks!
I'll show you who he really is!
Watch closely!
What's with you?
-Stop it. -My goodness, Chief.
What are you doing?
-Come on. -What is wrong with you?
This can't be.
Where are the needle marks?
Detective Choe.
Right.
Are they on your legs?
-Chief! -Get up.
-Let me see it! -Chief, stop it.
Okay, fine! You're right!
I'm an ex-convict.
It was so I could make a living.
I'm sorry.
But...
Do you know how hard it is to live in Korea as an ex-convict?
After I got released from prison,
I almost jumped off a bridge five times.
And I slit my wrist three times.
But do you know
what helped me get to my senses every single time?
The sundae soup that Detective Choe bought for me.
It was that sundae soup!
Don't you remember?
You don't?
Well, now that I've even lost your trust... Why should I bother...
-Why should I even bother to live? -My goodness!
-I'll just die! -Stop him!
Cut the act, you piece of shit!
You might be able to fool the others,
but you can't fool me!
Don't forget
that there's always someone watching you.
Detective Choe...
Let's go, Chief.
-Do you understand? -Chief.
Chief.
-You should go. -Let go of me!
I'm fine.
I hope you all fucking choke on the chicken.
MOKWON RESTAURANT
You really need to stop talking nonsense.
He's a hardworking, good man. Why do you keep trying to put him to shame
by constantly bringing up his past?
Do you remember Mr. Song, the bald laundry shop owner?
My dad was scammed by him three times.
That bald man! No one else but him!
He was scammed by him three times.
Do you know what my dad's last words were?
Number one.
He told me that people don't change easily.
Number two.
He told me to never trust baldies.
Deok-man!
Once a marine!
Always a marine!
And once a drug dealer,
always a drug dealer.
Dae-ho! Help!
Be careful.
But...
Is this really okay?
Trust my instincts!
When someone makes easy money, you can never go back.
But I think this is going over the edge.
Marines don't get scared!
Deok-man, did you know that if you dig up a rat hole,
tons of food comes out of it?
This place right here...
is a rat cave.
You watched too many movies!
If you eat that, you could die...
High purity meth will turn into crystal once it gets heated.
But this just burns.
That means it's not meth.
We have two hours left. Let's hurry.
My gosh, that startled me!
Pour water on it.
My gosh, you fool!
What the fuck... What did you do?
Fire extinguisher!
Hurry up! Go get it!
Fire extinguisher!
Gosh, that's hot!
What are you doing? Go on! Blast it!
Give me that!
Dae-ho, shouldn't we call 911?
-Are you nuts? -What's going on?
What's burning?
Detective Choe?
Is it because I became the president?
No, that's not why.
I can just quit.
No.
That's not exactly why.
Okay, I'll be honest with you.
I must've lost my mind because of Il-sik.
Who's Il-sik?
He was at the motel with you
when you got caught.
The ugly bastard with round eyes.
The one with a tattoo on his neck?
That's right.
He's doing business with Popeye again.
And coincidentally, the drugs surfaced
around the time you showed up here.
I had no idea.
It must've been hard for you.
You should've just been honest with me from the beginning.
That jerk ruined my life.
My poor partner died, too.
-Right. -I really wanted to catch them.
But I went overboard.
It's okay. I completely understand.
Did you get hurt by any chance?
No, I'm fine.
I'm so sorry about your house.
Don't worry, sir. I can clean it up.
Detective Choe.
I got you a small gift. I hope you like it.
What's this?
I was looking for the right time to give it to you.
No, forget it. I can't accept that.
You helped me with Beach Town and all.
I should thank you, sir.
Detective Choe.
I want to do bigger things with you.
You get what I mean, right?
-Sure... -Will you try it on?
-No. -Try it on.
-It's okay. -I'm not sure
-Jong-jin. -if it will fit.
Like this... Check it out.
There. It fits perfectly.
Fermented soybean soup in this hot weather?
I don't want it.
Are you serious? You're even complaining about food now?
Then don't eat!
My goodness, what a sight.
Look at yourself, you brat. Why not just go around naked?
I was just down the road.
Freeze! Stop right there!
What... What's this?
It's not a real tattoo. It's henna. It'll wash off.
When did you do this?
It wasn't there last week!
What is wrong with you? Everyone does it these days!
Hey, tell me their names. Bring them to me!
Where's the scrub?
I can't believe you let her do that.
When did she get that?
It'll be gone in a week!
Don't run!
The one with a tattoo on his neck?
Take care!
That's right. Il-sik didn't have a tattoo on his neck five years ago.
Il-sik and Jong-jin, that jerk,
are working as a team.
Gosh, why is he going so far?
He's going someplace far because he has something to hide.
-Hello. -How have you been?
It looks like they're here to go fishing.
May I ask you something?
That boat over there. Do you know where it's headed?
They're going to a deserted island called Soji Island.
Not a lot of people know about it, but it's great for fishing.
Well...
Do they come here often?
I think they're in a fishing club. They mostly stay there overnight.
Well... Could you take me there as well?
For what?
It's really far away, so it'll cost you a lot.
My goodness, really? Hold on.
Wait! Where's my wallet?
Where did I put it?
Did you see it?
DETECTIVE, CHOE DAE-HO
Is it in the car?
-Go check the car... -You're a cop?
A cop shouldn't be so clumsy and lose things.
Oh, gosh. You caught me.
It'll cost 300,000 won for a roundtrip.
What? 300,000 won?
Can you...
Can you give us a 100,000-won discount?
See you later, Dae-ho!
Be careful!
Who are they?
Captain, if you notice them doing anything suspicious,
please call this number.
Mokwon Restaurant? I thought you were a cop.
It's an undercover investigation. That's my secret agent. Okay?
Okay.
Captain, let's go to the other side.
Starboard! Check!
My gosh.
It smells like meth.
NO SERVICE
The caller is unavailable...
Gosh, it's so cold!
-Hello? -Were you sleeping, you jerk?
Hey, Dae-ho.
You slept, didn't you?
-No, I didn't. -Yes, you did!
Gosh, Dae-ho. It was so hard to reach you.
Where are the druggies?
I think they're getting ready to leave.
Send the boat right now!
What?
Send me the boat, you jerk!
Send me the boat!
Why would they travel so far away to fish?
There are a lot of good spots in Ulsan as well.
They... They weren't fishing.
They... They were synthesizing crude substances.
Meth... Meth smells nasty
when you're cooking it.
So they do it by the waterfront or in other remote places.
It's... It's the norm.
Then what do we do now?
Summon the gang.
Chief! It's crackdown time!
Let's catch some druggies!
Call the Special Crime Squad right now!
Everyone, freeze!
We're from the Special Crime Squad.
-Detective Choe. -What's going on?
You know why we're here.
Hey, you!
We told you not to move.
We got a report on drug manufacturing.
What? Drugs?
But you don't even have a warrant. This is absurd.
It's okay Mr. Gwak. They received a report.
We'll cooperate.
-Start searching! -Move it!
Hurry!
Search inside!
Over there! Take a look!
Search every corner!
Check over here.
Is that it?
I don't think this is it.
Take a thorough look.
Take a sample to forensics if you think it's necessary.
Look at him! Look!
Who wears this to make fermented soybeans?
You try smelling this all day.
It gives you a headache.
It's here!
You can't enter the fermentation room.
Move.
Move, you punk.
My gosh, what is this?
They're fermented soybeans!
-My gosh. -He was wrong.
He's in trouble.
Chief Kang.
Are you kidding me?
-Let's pull out! -Let's go.
-Let's get going. -No! Wait!
I saw it with my own two eyes.
They were cooking meth on a deserted island!
Dae-ho, that's enough!
You bastard!
Where did you put the meth? Tell me!
You just wasted your time, Detective Choe.
You bastard!
-What are you doing? -Stop it.
-What's with you, sir! -Let go of me!
-Come here! -Please stop!
-Stop him! -Let go! Let go of me!
Enough already!
-What a joke. -My goodness.
-Let's get going. -Wait.
Do you even know how much trouble you've caused us?
And why did you open the fermentation room?
You ruined 30 million won's worth!
Can you pay for that?
That's not what matters right now.
You have to investigate Koo.
That jerk has connections to Il-sik!
You're driving me crazy.
My gosh, stop it.
Come here, you bastard.
Where's the meth?
Look at him. He's totally lost it.
After losing the election to you and losing his ground,
he's lost his mind.
Mr. Koo.
You really shouldn't let him off the hook.
No, it must be a misunderstanding.
I owe my life to him.
I must've done something wrong.
What? You owe me your life? You jerk!
Mr. Choe Dae-ho!
Enough already!
If it wasn't for Mr. Koo, you'd be in jail already!
-Sir? -Hey!
Follow me to the school!
Follow him.
It's because you look like a pushover.
Shut up.
What's that?
Listen to me. You may be able to fool others,
but you can't fool me.
I saw you making meth
on that deserted island.
I have no idea what you're talking about, sir.
You fucking jerk. Do you think I'm joking around here?
It seems like you're really mad because of me.
Just hit me all you want, sir.
I'll gladly take your punches.
Why you little punk.
Stand straight!
Sir, wait. Wait...
Sir, I just noticed something...
I also noticed this back at the factory.
Your shoulder is a bit too tensed up, sir.
It's better to relax your shoulder
and throw a quick snap.
It's important to throw a quick snap. Try it, sir.
You fucking jerk.
That's not it!
Can't you do it right?
A quick snap. My goodness.
Try it.
Come on.
-Come on. -You son of a bitch!
Come on. Pull yourself together.
Okay, that's great.
You jerk!
Okay.
Where did you go? Shit.
Is it over already? Get up!
He's amazing. It ended in a blink of an eye.
Let's go. Game's over.
Let's go.
And you call yourself a silver medalist?
Come here.
-Did you get that on camera? -Yes, sir.
Really? Take a picture of us.
-Make sure our faces show. -Yes, sir.
Let's see.
I can't see our faces.
Let's take another one.
Look at the camera.
One...
Good.
Here.
My gosh. Let go of me.
What did I do so wrong?
Everyone's making money thanks to me!
You're making a fuss over nothing.
Don't view things as just good or evil.
The world is not black and white.
It's... Well, it's mostly grey.
Got that?
-My gosh. -Let's go, sir.
Edit it nicely.
PEACE TO ALL WHO ENTERS HERE
Dae-ho is unbelievable!
I'll be dead
if I don't get the deal for 100 air conditioners!
You're not the only one.
My gosh, speak of the devil.
Here comes our old sheriff.
He's trouble!
Yong-hwan, I was right.
He's a major league drug dealer!
We have to stick together and...
Drugs! Drugs! I'm so sick of you talking about drugs!
I mean, seriously.
Hey, what... What's wrong with you?
Take a look.
Mr. Koo says he's going to cancel Beach Town and leave!
Whose fault is that?
Beach Town was not why he came here in the first place.
He came for a big drug deal!
-Dae-ho! -My gosh.
Will you please stop? That's enough!
You know what?
Why don't you meet Mr. Koo and try apologizing to him?
Let's be honest here. If he leaves, everyone in Kijang will lose money!
Choon-mo's air conditioners, Kang-gon's water purifiers,
and even Sun-chul's boat!
They'll all go broke at this rate. It'll be all your fault!
I understand how you feel.
He came and took over your turf.
So I get why you hate him.
I get that.
What are you saying?
Do you think I'm doing this
out of personal reasons?
This is so frustrating.
My gosh.
To be exact, it was never his turf in the first place.
Dae-ho, weren't you born in Changwon?
I heard you moved here when you were six.
-Changwon? -You little punk.
Hey, you punk.
How dare you spread stupid rumors?
-You bastard! -Stop him!
-Go on! Hit me! -My gosh.
-Stop it! -Let go of me!
-You need to stop! -Let go!
-Don't stop me! -Stop it!
-Go ahead and hit me! -You punk!
Should we move somewhere else?
Why all of a sudden?
I'm worried about my mom living alone.
And things here have changed.
Sir! Come quickly!
Deok-man's throwing a fit!
-Get over here! You're all dead! -What is wrong with him?
Deok-man!
-What are you doing? -Stay out of this!
You call yourselves humans?
What the hell did we do?
-What did we do? -Stop it.
-You bastard! -Deok-man!
-Deok-man. -What did you say?
Will you please stop?
-Deok-man. -Is he nuts?
-Deok-man, wake up. -Deok... Deok-man.
Take your hands off him, you asshole.
Sir, I'm sorry. I really didn't mean to do this.
Get him treated with this.
Didn't I fucking warn you yesterday?
Can someone call 911?
-Please. -Okay, sure. Call 911.
Mr. Koo, are you okay?
-The brothers-in-law are the same. -If it weren't for you,
-What's wrong with them? How embarrassing! -things would've gotten out of hand.
What is it?
Are you really not going to tell me?
HE SHOULD BE ASHAMED!
DON'T BOTHER TO COME TO SOCCER ANYMORE YOU PARASITIC SON OF A BITCH!
Aren't you mad, Dae-ho?
Are you going to let him do this to you?
It's all useless.
Deok-man.
Let's leave Kijang.
If you were born with a pair of balls, you should know to be loyal, right?
If I had a pair of scissors, I'd cut them off. Sons of bitches.
-Hello? -Hello, sir.
Have you been well? It's Detective Kim.
Oh, hey. What's up?
We caught Shin Il-sik this morning.
We need you to come to the station as a witness, sir.
That's going to be such a hassle.
Forget about me. Just take care of it on your end.
I would if I could.
But you're the only witness of what happened five years ago.
Please do me a favor, sir.
DAEJEON POLICE STATION
-This is crazy. -We really didn't know!
I just need your thumb-print at the bottom once you're done reading it, sir.
You knew they were drugs!
I'm sorry I made you come so far just for this, sir.
We really didn't know!
-Am I done here? -Yes.
-We're not drug traffickers! -Then please explain.
Who are they?
They were tricked into transporting the drugs.
Some town folks transported and sold drugs without even knowing that they were drugs.
Popeye and Il-sik have destroyed the town.
I feel bad for them, but what can I do?
-There he is! -What is all this fuss?
He made us do it!
-Detective Kim. -Yes?
Can I talk to Il-sik for a second?
Long time no see!
You must be the chief by now. Congratulations, sir.
We're not exactly close enough to have small talk.
-So cut it out. -My goodness.
Do you know who he is?
Not really.
He was at that motel five years ago.
Oh, right. That newbie.
Yes, I recognize him now. That big head.
Have you met him since then?
Of course not.
I was in Korea for about two weeks before I left for China.
Popeye sent me a letter
to take the goods to China.
-A letter? -Yes.
He always sends letters to tell me the location and time.
Who the hell is Popeye?
I don't really know. I never actually saw him.
You've dealt with him for a long time. You must know something.
Well... I did hear that he established a drug town that enables him
to smuggle raw materials, manufacture, and transport drugs.
Who's this?
That bastard.
I got caught because of him.
He took the air conditioners packed with meth.
Air conditioners?
Yes.
The air conditioners are packed with...
Sir, we have to send him to the prosecution now.
Already? Gosh, I didn't even eat.
But Popeye has a weird sense of humor.
He put two 50,000 won bills in the letter telling me to go to China.
What a funny guy.
Two 50,000 won bills?
Yes, 100,000 won in cash. What would I buy with that in China?
What can I buy with that?
Hey, that letter... Where's the letter?
I obviously threw it away. I mean, it wasn't a love letter.
Take care.
ON THE 7TH AT TWO, DANSEONG SHIP AT INCHEON PORT
That bastard.
He's Popeye!
Do you have eyes on Detective Choe?
He's coming down from Daejeon Police Station.
He really is going all over the place.
Maybe we should postpone the deal, sir.
Il-sik's stuff was seized.
So there's not enough for the due date.
Trust means everything in business.
Keep the factory running for 24 hours.
Hire the locals if you need to.
What about the transportation?
The Japanese want us to ship the drugs, but there's way too much.
Use the fishing boats!
We'll need a lot of boats,
-and they'll be out fishing. -Make them rest...
We're closed.
We sold the store.
What a crazy old man.
What is it?
He's saying something crazy about secret agents and stuff.
Wait. Give me the phone.
-Hello? -Hi, Detective.
I just called
because I noticed a lot of boats coming in and out of Soji Island.
It looks like the boats are from Kijang, but they're not fishing.
And something feels really fishy.
I mean, let's be frank.
Who cares if he sells meth or bathes in it?
They kicked you out, so they're on their own.
It serves them right!
They're all happy about a trip.
A trip?
Everyone in the co-op is going on a trip.
Koo, that jerk, apparently borrowed a resort for them.
They're going on a trip at this specific time?
He's sending everyone away, so he can deal drugs in Kijang.
Deok-man.
Everyone in Kijang will become drug offenders at this rate.
Innocent grannies and gramps will become drug dealers, too.
The same goes for Hee-soon.
Deok-man.
I know we didn't get treated right.
But now that we know that he's Popeye,
we really need to do something.
My gosh, this is nuts.
Dae-ho, are you on your way?
Yes, I'm almost there.
Did you check all the ports I mentioned?
Something is really not right.
Come quickly. I'm so scared!
Dae-ho, give me a second. I'll have to call you back.
-What's wrong? -I'll call you later!
-Why? -Just hang up!
My gosh, this fool.
Oh, gosh. Dae-ho...
Damn it! That fucking hurt!
You used to be a fucking marine. Can't you recognize a friend from foe?
I can't see well at night.
You pathetic punk.
-Let's unload. -Yes, sir.
-There you go. -My goodness.
-Watch your back. -Okay.
Here you go.
-Let's hurry! Come on! -Okay.
-Here! -Okay!
Hey, come on!
Dad!
-Oh, no. -What a waste.
My gosh, everything spilled.
My goodness.
What's this?
-What is this? -Let me see.
What is this? Do you know what this is?
What is it?
All the boats went to a festival in Ulsan.
The cops went there, too.
Look. That's Sun-chul's dad's boat.
That's Chang-wan's boat.
Mr. Koo bought them off.
I knew it. They're trading by sea.
What did I tell you?
He's going to deal drugs on the day of that trip.
-Where's the gang? -I don't know. They won't answer.
Damn it.
-Thank you for everything, Mr. Koo. -My pleasure.
It's too bad that you can't come with us
-on this trip. -Yes, exactly.
I suddenly have to go on a business trip.
But I'll join you right after.
Too bad.
But where's Sun-chul?
He's been gone since yesterday.
He's helping me transport stuff for Beach Town.
He's a hard-worker. I'll bring him with me.
-Go on ahead. -Yes.
-Go ahead first. -We'll be waiting.
We'll see you later.
-Thank you, Mr. Koo. -Sure.
Sir, please drive safely.
Yes, sir.
The Japanese are on their way here.
You look great today.
Everybody, be quiet.
Everyone's back, right?
-You're all here? -Yes.
Okay, great. Let's go, bus driver!
What?
We're right next to Haeundae.
But we don't earn as much.
-The young people should... -Sir.
-What?
We're going the wrong way.
What are you talking about?
-Kang-gon. -Yes?
We're headed back.
Hey... You're right.
Hey, driver!
You're going the wrong way!
-Mister. -What is he doing?
Sir, the bus is...
Deok-man?
-What? -What are you doing?
-Deok-man? -What's he doing here?
-Is it really Deok-man? -What are you doing?
-It's really him. -You don't know how to drive a bus.
I drove it in the army.
And don't forget. We're on the highway.
BAEKDUSAN TOUR BUS
Don't provoke me.
-My goodness. -What's happening?
-Calm down. -Sit down.
Hold on tight!
-It's all done, sir. -Nice weather.
The shipment is ready.
Good.
Hey!
Okay, then. The deal's done.
We're done here.
Have a safe trip back.
I took care of the maritime police.
Don't worry.
Is that so?
Dad!
Let go!
BAEKDUSAN TOUR BUS
Isn't that our bus?
Move.
Are you crazy, Deok-man? What are you doing?
Look over there!
What? Look at what?
Isn't that Mr. Koo?
Yes, it is.
He said he had to go away on business. What's he doing there?
-What do you think? He's selling meth! -What?
He's using all your boats
to sell meth to the Japanese.
What? Meth?
Deok-man, where are you going?
-Stop him. -Where are you going?
Look over there. Sun-chul and the others are being held captive.
Sir! Help!
He's right!
Those motherfuckers!
My goodness, what do we do?
What a fucking joke.
-Now what? -Dae-ho was right.
-Yes. -Right?
What's going on?
Don't worry and just go.
Start up the boats.
What do we do?
Hold... Hold on.
-Why are they coming this way? -Sir... Sir.
We're in trouble.
-What do we do? -I don't know.
Hurry up and hand out the tools!
Right. Okay.
-Take one. -Hurry up.
Hand it to the back.
Deok-man...
-Take one each quickly! -Here. Hurry.
-Here you go. -Hand one out to everyone.
Hee-soon, it's going to be dangerous, so stay inside the bus, okay?
Got it?
Take it. And prepare yourselves.
What's that?
Dae-ho!
Chief!
Hey, drug dealer!
You bastards are toast!
My goodness, he still hasn't learned his lesson.
Captain. Now, please.
Let's get it done.
Now, you're a bunch of rats... No.
You're just druggies in a trap.
Sir, I'll take care of this. You should get going.
Your car is ready.
Let's go, boys!
BEACH TOWN CO-OP OUTING
You bastard! Get over here!
You fucking druggies! Die!
-You fucking jerk! -Catch that asshole!
You bastards!
Hey!
What the...
Damn it.
This is crazy.
What's up with him?
Move the trucks.
-We can't do that. -You can't?
Freeze!
Dae-ho!
It's all clear here.
We got the meth,
and the maritime police are coming.
Great job.
Good work.
You boys can go.
He and I need to talk.
Yes, sir!
I don't believe this.
Stop there, you punk!
It's all over at the port.
Now, it's time
for our fight.
Popeye.
What are you doing?
And...
You came alone?
You're amazing. You really are.
Detectives are scary.
I underestimated you. I'm so sorry, sir.
Do you finally get
whom you're dealing with?
Of course.
My lifesaver.
Illicit drug manufacturing would've gotten me 20 years,
but I got out in two years thanks to you.
I owe you so much!
Cut the crap.
Are you ready this time?
I taught you at that school.
Quick snaps.
You grabbed my suit again.
Your grip got stronger.
Did you work out a little?
Again!
My gosh.
Detective Choe.
You can't ever beat me, you jerk.
That hurts, you bonehead.
My goodness. Again?
Yes.
Damn it.
It's been ages since I got flipped over.
What the hell?
Son of a bitch!
Shit!
I always wondered why they call you Popeye.
You little punk. You have nothing up here.
You should just live with what you have, you little punk.
You've been hiding that all along?
My dad was right.
You shouldn't have done that.
You're dead.
I need a mirror.
Stop. Stop it.
Detective Choe, stop...
It hurts. It really hurts. I'm serious.
Please stop...
Help... Help me...
Help...
Please... Please don't kill me...
You bastard.
This is what you call a world-class fighter.
My gosh.
You damn drug dealer! That was such a cheap fucking move!
There's no such thing as a cheap move when it comes to war.
You fucking jerk.
Get up.
You bastard. Get back up.
Goodbye.
Gosh, that hurts.
Gosh, this bastard.
I thought I was going to die.
Let me see you, you shit.
Get up!
Hey.
You think the world is grey?
You punk.
To me, the world is still...
Give me a smile.
It's black and white.
An Asian drug lord known as Popeye, who's been selling meth
throughout Korea, Japan, and China for the past five years,
finally got arrested yesterday.
Koo disguised himself as a businessman
and established Beach Town which looked like a seafood distribution center...
It turns out that he was manufacturing
-and distributing drugs. -Are you that happy?
According to the police,
-Koo cooked meth -Of course.
on a deserted island in Geoje Island,
and a large amount of them have been...
Come in.
Hello.
-Hello. -There he is.
It's him.
-Mee-sun's here as well. -Yes.
Hello, Mee-sun.
They were eating apples.
Hi, Chief Choe.
Mee-sun, this is nothing much.
-We already have a lot. -You do?
-Just leave it here. -Have it later.
-Here you go. -Chief, are you okay?
This works best for getting rid of swelling and bruises.
Don't take it. It won't work.
But it was hard to get.
I'll put it here.
-It's okay. -Here.
We're sorry about everything.
Well, they say
after a storm comes a calm, right?
These days, after a storm, holes begin to appear.
Haven't you heard of sinkholes?
Come on, Dae-ho.
You're a man from Kijang. You're not petty.
I'm not from Kijang.
I'm from Changwon.
I'm sorry. That was a mistake, sir.
Gosh, come on. It's not about where you were born.
Your home is
where your loved ones are at.
Cut the act.
My goodness.
Don't be like this.
Please forgive us.
-I'm sorry. -Forgive you?
For what?
What's to forgive?
Hate the sin,
but not the sinner.
He forgave us!
-Chief! -We're okay now!
-You're the best! -I'll be better from now on!
Why did you come here?
Get out.
Deok-man, throw a bowl of salt on them.
-My goodness. -Deok-man!
-What an incredible man! -We're sorry.
-Come on. -Chief Choe!
Chief Choe!
CHIEF OF THE BUSAN POLICE AGENCY
You treated me like I was crazy.
What's with the fruit basket?
Our reputation has hit rock bottom.
"What were cops doing while a civilian caught a drug lord?"
That's what the people are saying as they constantly criticize us.
What does that have to do with me?
Well, that depends on how we decide to get you involved.
We've set everything up already.
All you need to do is show up
and get the most out of it. We'll see to the rest.
CHOE DAE-HO IS THE BEST!
Chief Choe.
Have you ever heard of an undercover agent?
