Episode 5
What’s wrong with you?
Nothing. I suddenly remembered our first meeting
when I hit you with a mop.
Mop… mop… why bring that up again?
I was so embarrassed
But that was how we
became better acquainted
and became drinking buddies, and now we are going cycling together.
And now I’m also seeing ghosts
which I shouldn’t be seeing.
But fate is supposed to be scary.
I don’t know if our relationship is fated or cursed.
Aren’t you hungry?
Cycling is exercise after all.
I’m a little hungry.
We just walked past the convenience store!
You want to go back there?
Forget it, go home. Bye.
Hey why are you walking like that?
Did you injure yourself?
No but after cycling all day, it feels like it’s on fire.
On fire? What’s on fire?
Did your bike catch fire?
I mean my asshole is on fire!
How embarrassing
For goodness’ sake
For a man, he’s awfully dense
“We’ve passed the convenience store. You want to go back there?”
As if I would have asked him to go to the store with me!
Asshole… asshole… goodness
You’re a girl but you have no shame
The working week is about to begin
And the Monday blues are upon us
Some of us are stressed but also calm
Some, in preparation for tomorrow,
have gone to bed.
And others with children who are studying hard
are making their kids a late-night snack.
And still others are partying hard
right to the very end of the weekend
Perhaps some are at the start of new relationships.
But wherever you are and whatever you are doing
I hope you’ll have a peaceful night.
After all, strange things have been happening
Some say the world is coming to an end
Others say that this proves that
humans are born evil and will become worse.
Although I don’t know if the world has changed
or if people have changed
I have to believe that
people are good at heart
and evil will not triumph.
Mum, I’m home
I’ve finally come home.
Hey… no…
Don’t… don’t… don’t… no…
No…
Sorry… sorry… sorry…
Hwang Dae Doo
How pitiful
You ran away from the child protection centre
just to see your mum again
What’s going on?
…
Didn’t I tell you we’d meet again very soon
I thought you were like the late Detective Kim Nak Chun
But surprisingly you’re more like me
We have both been abandoned by society
and deprived of love
We’re very similar, don’t you think?
What do you want?
I intend to return the pain that the world has given me
For me, joy and pleasure come
from the pain and misfortune of others
No…
It’s this world that has abandoned me
and labelled me a demonic murderer
Isn’t that terrible? So I want to prove…
What do you want to prove?
That we’re all the same
I will slowly destroy this world
Let’s enjoy this game. We’re in no hurry.
Oh, and you will become my final piece of evidence
Just like the late Detective Kim Nak Chun
No! Don’t go!
Don’t go with him!
Don’t go!
Don’t leave with him! No!
Don’t go! Don’t go!
Why are you investigating Hwang Dae Doo?
I’m checking whether he really
died on 31 December 1997
Have you gone crazy first thing in the morning?
He’s been dead for 20 years
Even his bones must have decomposed
There’s probably nothing left of him
Are you still obsessed with the Sun Yang Woo case?
Aigoo aigoo
(Hey, Fairy Godmother)
(Thanks to you, my asshole is now as good as new)
(Thanks for your gift)
He has turned up!
The guy from the internet deal
Don’t hang around, go catch the guy!
Got it
(Director Oh Soo Hyeok)
(M&A Business Strategy)
Director, would you like some tea?
Sure
With rich and powerful parents,
even a pathetic brute
can work in a place like this
There’s more than enough money here
to sustain a life of complete idleness and extravagance.
Why do I need to be here anyway?
Ah, there’s a reason for everything
You jerk
Now what?
You had fun when you were
playing around with me
Have you grown bored with me?
If I really wanted to,
I could bury you right now
But I’m going to be as pragmatic as you
I’ll resign from this company
But I won’t just settle for one or two billion won
I’ll give you a proper figure soon
Prepare yourself
Interesting
This is perfect
Besides me, which other prisoner has died?
(Incantations/spells)
Something bad is happening
This kid is good
He keeps getting in my way
Out of my way!
Go faster!
Stop the car, you little…
Almost crashed back there…
This lunatic is really crazy
Stop the car, nutcase!
He really is crazy
Bastard!
Red light! Red light!
Damn
Move! Move! Move!
Are you ok? Are you ok?
He’s completely nuts.
Put the knife down
I don’t want to see any bloodshed, so let’s call it quits
I’m busy today
Next time I’ll let you catch me
Keep going like this and you’re going to get seriously hurt
Put the knife down
The hospital is nearby, so it’s all good
I’ll just give you a little jab with my knife
You can pop into the emergency room later
You bastard
Go ahead and shoot
I’m really going to shoot
Police
Sorry!… you bastard…
Are you okay?
…
(Emergency room)
Bastard
- Hey - Sorry
What are you doing
Sorry I need to do something…
Ow my chest
Doctor, my chest hurts
My chest
Doctor, where are you going?
Did you shoot on purpose?
What are you talking about
You know what my motto is, right?
I’d rather get payback than pay off my debts
I’m going take revenge on you for sure
What revenge?!
I hate those jerks getting the better of us
You would stomp on a colleague just to catch a criminal?
It was our job to catch him
Are you saying
it was my fault we didn’t catch him?
No it was your fault
Have you found anything?
Sunbae, what’s this?
Drugs?
I’ve never seen this before
Is it cocaine?
No. Look at these granules
They’re like salt crystals in a salt pan
Looks like he was in a hurry
He has left his wallet behind
Kim Tae Shik… Wow thanks, Tae Shik
- Circulate his description ASAP. - Got it
What? A “zombie” drug? (Meeting room)
It’s the first of its kind in Korea. It’s lethal.
But why is it called a “zombie” drug?
Consumed in certain quantities, it has side-effects
Very disturbing side-effects
What?
It could make you kill people like a zombie
What a mess
Can I have some?
Why?
I want to tear someone to pieces
This is no time for jokes
If this drug gets around the country
it’d be like what you guys say:
Hell on earth
And we still haven’t caught Kim Tae Shik
Exactly how much of these drugs does he have?
Chief, the point is this
Kim Tae Shik is either supplying
or trafficking the drug. I think this is the key.
If it’s some organisation that’s making the deal,
then a large shipment of these drugs must be about to arrive here.
Then all hell really will break loose
According to his criminal record,
Kim Tae Shik has previous for fraud and theft
Perhaps we’re not dealing with an organisation
just with him alone
Whether the deal involves an organisation or an individual
We must catch them as quickly as possible
If the drugs we’ve got here are all there is,
then we’re in luck
But if he has more of this stuff in his possession
then it’s going to be a huge problem
Starting from today, don’t even dream of going home
We must monitor Kim Tae Shik’s home and his movements
We need to conduct covert surveillance
Understood
Chief, these are the witness statements
from last week’s pickpocket case at the shopping mall
Good, thanks, Officer Choi
What the hell are you doing?
Dammit
You said I was unobservant, right?
Shall I tell you something that will
completely change how you perceive the world?
What?
I’ve been a cop for 20 years
There’s no way I would have missed this
Stop babbling
All right, returning to my topic
This will really shock you
I’m talking about Officer Kim. Joon Hyung.
What about him?
He’s dating
Oh
Do you know who he’s dating?
Traffic Division’s Officer Choi. Choi Yeon Hee.
Aren’t you shocked?
You can’t fool me
Sigh…
Why aren’t you reacting?
It’s true!
You work with him every day
How could you have missed it
I’ve known about it for about 40 thousand years
Everyone here knows
Well, except you
What?
How have you become so unobservant?
You were not like this before
What did you say? What did you say?
What? You already knew? Hey!
Nah, that guy had no idea
He was lying to save face
Damn I’m good
Seo Jung
Since there are no customers, let’s close shop and go for a drink
I’m tired, I’m going home.
Oh come on
Why waste your youth, staying at home during the weekend
If you don’t want to drink, let’s catch a movie
Have you broken up with that guy?
Is that why you’re asking me to go out with you?
Well, there are two things that must be changed regularly
Engines and men
The thing about love is that
when two people get used to each other, it’s the end
I’m looking for a new engine
How about a movie and dinner after that?
You haven’t seen that new movie right?
It’s a real tear-jerker
A must-see for couples
We’re not a couple
It’s getting great word of mouth
They say it’ll make
even boyfriends with defective lacrimal glands
cry floods of tears
Couples in the process of divorcing
will rip up their divorce papers
I’ve bought some kimbap
Warm in here
Hey would someone whose identity has been exposed
turn up at their home like an idiot?
Hm
What?
Where’s the kimchi?
I didn’t buy kimchi but I’ve got coffee
You should have bought kimchi!
Damn, so much crap…
It’s already eight, you wanna die?
Another hour won’t kill you
You try doing this for 20 hours.
As they say, good job!
Go get some sleep
And don’t you dare be even
a little late for your next shift!
Try it and you’re dead
What are you doing?
If you’re free, let’s go to the movies
You’re here
But what’s that under your eyes?
Eyebags as black as charcoal
What did you say?
Forget it. What movie is this?
A tragic romance
You’ll be crying your eyes out
You like this kind of movie?
I love it.
Most men aren’t too fond of such movies
I’m more emotional than I look
I might do something embarrassing
What?
I might end up sobbing furiously
and leaving in the middle of the movie
“You won’t be able to see me there”
“Remember me”
“No one knows you like I do”
“Don’t worry, silly…”
She disappeared before the end of the movie. How rude.
Movie’s over?
It was no big deal
But oddly enough I felt very comfortable
It’s difficult to be comfortable at the cinema
Having a good time?
Yeah
Er… um… dinner…
It looks expensive
Don’t worry, I won’t make you pay
Dinner here probably costs more than my car
This way, please
Ok
What are you doing?
What’s wrong?
Even movies have trailers
You should warn me before you come closer
Stop making a fuss
Someone is joining us
Who?
Someone who is going to buy us expensive steaks
Are you disappointed that it isn’t just the two of us?
Why should I be disappointed?
Who is coming?
Someone you know
If it’s someone we both know
then it must be…
Unni, we’re here!
This is a bit awkward
I thought it was going to be just you
How do you explain this?
Didn’t you say you were just acquaintances?
Well he’s a cop
and he’s got a good eye for people
especially men
It wouldn’t be normal for a man
to spot what I’m interested in
There’s nothing less normal than you
Where did you get that outfit?
These strange clothes
What the hell!
You heard what he just said?!
It’s true though
Unni, your style is rather unconventional
Ok, enough of this
The man that we’re going to meet…
Is perfectly compatible with me
It’s destiny
I’ve never met a more like-minded man before in my life
How old is he?
Younger than me
You go, girl!
Is he handsome?
Very
Occupation?
Philosophy
He’s a philosopher?
A professor of philosophy
At an institution
Institution?
Is he a fortune teller?
Don’t be banal.
He’s not a fortune teller. He’s a philosopher of destiny.
That’s why I want to introduce him to you
Spiritual people like you two will be able to communicate with each other
But with people who are out of synch…
Does he do his fortune telling… er I mean
is his philosophy institution nearby?
Yes but so what?
I’ve got a bad feeling about this
Oh, Soon Kyung?
My premonitions are never wrong
What are you doing?!
How are you related to my Soon Kyung?
You don’t need to know that
I think she is your next target
What, you’re going to use her and dump her?
You think women have an expiry date?
Officer I’ll tell you the truth
Yes I’m a womanising playboy
I WAS a womanising playboy
But not any more, not since I met Soon Kyung
She is my destiny
So let’s forget the past and move on
Promise me you won’t tell her about my past
Agreed?
It really is a small world
I can’t believe you two know each other
I don’t just know him. There was an issue…
I like Detective Kang very much
He solves problems and helps people
He really is a good guy
What do you think of us?
Oh, you’re made for each other
What do you think?
Birds of a feather flock together
Why does an innocent proverb make me feel bad?
Is he really a good guy?
Absolutely
But what’s your relationship with each other?
We’re acquaintances
By the way, you and Seo Jung are in the same profession
Really? Philosophy?
No, no. Let’s just eat.
What do you mean, no
You’re both psychic
She’s a bit shy about it
People with psychic abilities
should be able to identify each other
You two should try it
What are you doing?
Come, fix your gaze on me
Let’s just have more wine
I know how you feel
After a few months’ practice,
having to compete with the most skilful people in your district
is like taking part in the world championships
What an apt comparison
Just treat it like a lesson, give it a try
Now
Quick, look at me.
Darling, I… I need the washroom
Well he isn’t a complete charlatan
He could detect your unusually high level of spiritual energy
Didn’t I tell you to stop doing this kind of thing?
He was so smug. I got angry.
I kind of enjoyed that…
Shall we go cycling?
In the middle of the night?
I’ve been feeling depressed
What’s up?
I keep getting the feeling that something’s wrong
What feeling exactly?
Nothing. Forget it. Go on home.
Aren’t you doing surveillance tomorrow morning?
Are you sure everything is ok?
So what if something isn’t ok?
What?
Earlier, when the fortune teller asked what our relationship was
you said we were acquaintances
Should I have said we were NOT acquainted?
Forget it. See you.
Hey
Wanna come up for some ramyeon?
Wow my heart was beating so fast, I was so nervous
But she does have feelings for me
She definitely has feelings for me
But after inviting me in for ramyeon,
why did she say I lacked perception?
Maybe because I didn’t wash the ramyeon bowl?
But as her guest I shouldn’t have had to do the washing up
Anyway I think I was very cool today
I didn’t do anything weird
Just very coolly ate my ramyeon
If you had seen me leaving her apartment in such a cool way
you’d have thought I was a thoroughly trustworthy guy
Right?
Hey you, are you sad?
No, all I did was eat ramyeon
In the process of converting to contract and temporary workers
we dismissed 20 permanent workers
One of them committed suicide
which got the labour union all riled up
Think of what you can get out of this
If you handle this well, Director,
you will rise in the chairman’s esteem
So what do you want me to do
Just pretend to listen to
their side of the story
Later we’ll approach a few union members
We’ve got an ace up our sleeves (‘hidden card’)
Ace / hidden card?
Isn’t that clear enough for you?
We’ve done all the prep
When they exhaust their resources,
their desperation will solve our problem
What an interesting way of doing things
(Redundancy kills) (We are not machines)
Atone for the death of our colleague
Atone Atone Atone
Reform the assembly line
Reform Reform
Abolish contract work
Abolish Abolish
Reinstate the dismissed workers
Reinstate Reinstate
Atone for the death of our colleague
Atone Atone
Reinstate the dismissed workers
Reinstate Reinstate
This way
Atone for the death of our colleague
Atone Atone
Are you ok
Do you know where you are? How dare you come in here
You killed Mr Lee. You murderers!
You’re here, Senior Director
What’s up
We’ve got a new product
It’s expensive
but it’s stronger than anything else on the market
You junkie
Bath salt
It looks like bath salts
hence the name
but it’s better known by another name
Zombie drug
Zombie
The intake method is as before
But if you go beyond a certain amount
you’ll turn into a zombie
You’ll feel like you’re on fire
After stripping and writhing about,
you’ll attack people
and eat their flesh
and their brains
Wow
Mark my words
Within a few minutes you’d be as high as a kite
But must this transaction take place
right here, right now?
You guys are obviously gangsters,
the way you’re carrying on
We need to keep an eye on you
An immensely wealthy chaebol
the youngest son of the TF Group’s chairman
and also our best customer
So we were going to pay you a visit
but it’d be disastrous if our deal had fallen through
As you know, we’re very strict
about the distribution of drugs to our members
My drugs
go only to you
not to any Tom, Dick or Harry
So if any of us is arrested,
you’d be implicated too
Both of us would get into trouble
Are you threatening me?
Not threatening
A serious warning
Not long ago, one of our guys
stole some of our supply
as a joke
Luckily, we managed to intercept the police
before they caught him
We were going to arrange his funeral
but we decided to let it go this time
However, if you try anything like that
then
you may end up
sitting in his place
even if you’re a chaebol or a rich boy from a good family
I like this piece of trash
Watch what you’re saying
If you do as I say,
I’ll treat you well
Oh really
Where are you going?
The place where I might have to sit?
I want to take a look at it
Where do you think you’re going?
Kim Tae Shik
Put him on the wanted list
This is interesting
It’s Kang Pil Sung again
You idiot
The cops know all about him now
Are you naive or just stupid
to regard this idiot as your leader. Pathetic.
What?
Idiot?
Can’t you tell the difference between a leader and a loser?
Come on
you jerk
This little…
What?
Me?
I’m Director Oh Soo Hyeok
No… you…
Have you ever killed anyone?
This coward is
just playing at being a leader
and acting cool
I said I liked you
But if I let him live, the rest of you must die
What to do?
Help!
Save me!
Please help me!
Look at this
Not everyone gets the chance
to watch himself die
From now on, we’re on the same side
If you do as I say
I’ll give you heaven instead of hell
Any objections?
By the way
anyone got a nail clipper?
(Safety First)
Seo Jung
This really is
going to be very interesting
Seo Jung
Aunt, were you sleeping?
No, nothing’s the matter
Aunt, do you know…
Mother…
where Mother is?
Why is this programme so scary…
(TV sounds)
We’re closed
(TV sounds)
We’re closed
What…?!
(Restaurant)
I want sushi
Do you know why you’re an outcast?
Because you’ve done too many stupid things
I want to leave
What?
Let you go?
You’ve got the class president’s protection
so you must be feeling brave
and you think the whole world belongs to you
You’re too audacious
What are you doing!
None of your business, Yoo Seung Hee
Buzz off to cram school
You’re such a busybody
Enough
I hear your dad is a cop
What is his rank?
Do you know who my father is?
Shall I ask him to give your dad a promotion?
Thanks
This is my last warning
We’ll call it quits
And what if I don’t stop?
Wanna report me to your dad?
Or maybe
a motherless child like yourself
lacks a decent upbringing?
Chief, your coffee
When did you find out?
About 40 thousand years ago
You can’t fool me
Sorry
For what?
What’s there to be sorry for?
Hey
I’m not completely clueless
Also, our Officer Choi
is kind and pretty
Whoever wins her heart is a lucky man
But we never dreamt that the lucky man would be our Joon Hyung
I guess you already know this:
Our job is a tough one
Not everyone can take it
But
if you and your partner understand this about one another
then it wouldn’t be a problem
Then why did you get divorced?
Why indeed?
The hardships of our job
should not be borne by our families
Not considering marrying again?
Hey, Officer Choi
Isn’t there a suitable older lady among your relations?
Remarriage is perfectly fine before the age of 60
Yeah
You guys are talking rubbish
Hey where’s Kim Tae Shik?
He’s gone underground
Yeah
You heard what happened
Last night we found the first victim of this drug
The body of the woman in the restaurant was completely…
Enough
If we don’t nip this in the bud
the country will be in chaos
Understood
Chief, you’re wanted at the office
(Serious Crimes Division)
What happened?
I’m her father
I’m speechless
You’re so busy catching gangsters
that your own daughter has become a gangster too
What?
What’s going on?
What happened?
At the school,
this student broke the arm of another student
What?
This is the victim’s mother
Is this true?
It wasn’t like that
Just look at her
Where did you learn such behaviour?
Didn’t you break my daughter’s arm?
Did your father teach you to be so irresponsible?
Watch what you’re saying, ajummah
Hey
Shut up
Who taught you to be so rude
Be quiet
Dad
I apologise
It’s my fault for not being a good father
I’m really sorry
I will investigate this thoroughly
I wasn’t going to mention this
But do you know who my husband is?
Ah
Sangdong district’s Assemblyman Hwang
Hey
Seung Hee, give us a minute
What are you doing
Officer Choi
get her out of here
Ok
Hey
Who are you
She is a criminal
She should be in handcuffs
Your precious daughter
is notorious
She’s a pro in school violence
What?
Detective Kang
What are you doing?
Ajummah, I’m going to describe
today’s events to you clearly. Listen.
Your daughter was one of three delinquents
beating up a student in the school storeroom
When Seung Hee intervened,
your daughter attacked Seung Hee
Seung Hee warned your daughter to stop
but your daughter refused
So Seung Hee was acting in self-defence.
Can you stand by what you said?
I’m going to press charges
That will not be to your daughter’s advantage
We’ve got CCTV footage from the scene of crime
So if we do things according to the law
All your daughter’s misdeeds will be exposed
The matter will escalate
That would be great for us
What? The law?
You must act according to the law
Make sure you act according to the law
I hate people who resort to the law for every little thing
Your name is Seung Hee, right?
I am Yeon Hee
We are the Hee sisters!
I heard that
you are very strong
Well done!
It must have felt good
And I heard that you want to join the police
and that you’ve taken up martial arts. What kind?
Jiu-jitsu
Really?
I’m into kickboxing
Really?
Yeah
Seung Hee
let’s be sisters
Time of death is estimated to be 72 hours ago
He was stabbed in the lungs and died immediately
Is it Kim Tae Shik
You jerk
If we’d arrested you earlier
you’d be alive now
Is there anything else that’s unusual here?
No, nothing
We found this next to the body
Next to the body
What’s this?
Isn’t that a rear-view mirror?
Hwang Dae Doo
Hwang Dae Doo is alive
(More after the credits)
(Preview)
I’ll slowly destroy the world
Let’s enjoy this game
There’s no hurry
What’s the matter
I’m here to see someone
All hell will break loose
And you won’t be able to stop it.
So fate is a scary thing
You as well?
I can sense you too
Let her go
Let me die
