Connection (2024) s01e06 Episode Script
Episode 6
1
(All characters, organizations,
and events in this drama are fictitious.)
What time did he go in?
Hasn't it been over 30 minutes?
It has.
Hey.
What?
How do you know the passcode
to their place?
I know what you're thinking.
I told him.
I rushed to the hospital
when I heard of Jun Seo's news.
Prosecutor Park wanted to double-check
although it was a suicide,
so he asked to drop by
and look through our laptop
or any memos
Ji Yeon,
I told you to change the passcode.
I tried it just in case,
and you haven't changed it.
If you don't know how to change it,
shall I do it for you?
No. I'll change it myself.
Okay.
You took a look at Jun Seo's laptop?
Why?
I wanted to see if anything indicated
something other than suicide.
He could've left a suicide note.
And rather than
have detectives come and go,
Ji Yeon said she'd prefer it
if I came by as a friend.
Why are you here at this hour?
What do you mean "this hour?"
A civil servant
usually gets off work at this hour.
It's not a special timeframe.
Why are you here?
Ji Yeon wanted to know
how the investigation would proceed.
I'd said I'd visit when I could.
And I chose to come today.
Okay?
What about you?
What are you doing here?
I'll go now.
Okay.
Step aside.
Why did you come here?
Step aside.
Mr. Park.
I'm sorry to say this when you came by.
It's a bit late, and I'm tired.
I'll meet you near your office one day.
That would be better, right?
Call me when you're free to come by.
I'll leave you, then.
Bye.
(Connection)
What did you come to ask her?
How is the investigation proceeding?
What?
You called it a suicide.
I'm wondering what investigation
there could possibly be
for you to come and explain.
We did an autopsy,
and Ji Yeon was concerned too.
(Episode 6)
They're coming out.
What's going on?
Did Jang Jae Gyeong not catch on?
It looks like it.
He's so slow.
Isn't it obvious what it is
if a man visits a woman
after sundown?
Inspector Jang arrived after sundown too.
Darn you.
- Hey.
- What?
Where is she going?
Look.
Hey.
- Follow her.
- Okay.
- Take care.
- Thanks.
(Every second counts for the informant.)
Hello.
Everyone went out?
Yes, to have dinner.
Did you look into CEO Yoon?
Yes, but I didn't find much.
Where did you go
and what did you look into?
I asked the meth dealers I knew.
But no one had heard of CEO Yoon.
It's possible the person changes names.
Dealers tend to do that.
Is that it?
I'll ask around some more.
Captain.
Did I do something to upset you?
You've been treating me differently.
I tried to think of a reason,
but I couldn't come up with one.
The night Lee Myung Guk's house
burned down.
You returned to the station
instead of securing the scene.
- Yes.
- Why?
I'd noticed a car
speeding away from the scene.
I thought it would take a while to put
the fire out and Forensics to start,
so I decided to give chase.
And I saw the car
drive into the police station.
And then?
Did you come into the office?
Yes.
When you came in
What was the situation like?
There was no one here.
What?
The room was empty
when I came in, but
Soo Hyun's desk area was a mess.
- And then?
- I cleaned up,
then went downstairs
to see the CCTV footage.
Why?
To locate you and because
the office situation seemed off.
And?
The system
failed to record what had happened then.
I told the security staff to fix it.
They couldn't.
The bottom line is that
I should've stayed and managed
the Lee Myung Guk scene,
and I know it was my mistake
to leave early.
I know you must think
- I lack in many ways and
- No.
It's not that. Don't mind it.
I was a bit too tired
and on edge, I guess.
Hey, she pulled over. Stop the car.
- Yoon Jin.
- What?
Over there.
Hey.
- Did you bring your camera?
- You bet.
Here.
Look at that punk smile.
Are you having fun?
What's that?
I suddenly craved some caffeine.
Are you the only one that needs caffeine?
You should learn to share.
I'm heading in.
Okay. Take care.
Thanks.
Shall we move tables?
Drink your coffee.
(Oh Yoon Jin)
(Oh Yoon Jin)
Why did you come over so suddenly?
I didn't know Jae Gyeong would be there.
You should've texted me.
It didn't sound off, did it?
Did he suspect anything?
We got away with it.
What did he want?
He asked to see Jun Seo's laptop
and some USB flash drives.
He looked for videos and played them all.
Videos? Like what?
I sat next to him and watched.
They were clips of Yoon Hee
or stuff we'd taken on trips.
I don't know what he was looking for,
but I don't think he found it.
Don't mind him. There's nothing he can do.
So,
did you give it some thought?
About what?
About what I said last time.
About leaving together?
Wasn't that a joke?
- I'm not in the mood for jokes.
- Do you think I am?
You barged in out of the blue
and strangled me,
demanding I hand over the passcode.
- And now you want to leave together?
- A passcode?
He strangled her?
I apologized profusely
and more than enough for that.
Let's not drag it on.
If I give you the passcode,
will you really leave with me?
Yes.
You say you'll quit your job
and elope with me,
but why can't you say
you'll get a divorce?
Isn't that the right order?
Get a divorce.
Then I'll give you the passcode
and go anywhere with you.
I will get a divorce,
but not in the order you want, Ji Yeon.
You can't get divorced overnight.
If we move abroad together,
I can get someone
to file the paperwork for me.
- Why is that so important?
- It is important.
I don't want to be
an adulterer who fools around
with married men.
So until you bring me
the signed divorce papers,
I won't tell you anything.
Give me your hand.
Come on.
Ji Yeon.
I love you.
What's most important to us now
is our sincere love for each other.
And
my feelings won't change.
At this moment
and in the future,
what's most important to me
is you.
What a joke.
The money in there
It belongs to us,
the people who know the passcode.
It's more than enough
to start over anywhere,
so let's
be a little wiser.
Give me a little more time.
It's not an easy decision for me either.
Shall we leave?
Let's get something nice to eat.
What are you doing? Follow them.
They'll notice if I follow them there too.
Darn it.
Did you have breakfast?
I haven't yet, so I'm hungry.
But then and even now,
I've never been able to eat
after paying my respects to a victim.
Shall we have some gukbap?
He wouldn't have died
if not for me.
Why guilt-trip yourself?
Catch the killer.
He was watching me from close by.
He learned about the camera because of me.
He knew I'd go back to my car,
and he used that opening.
Jae Gyeong.
Are you hiding something
from me these days?
You always did a good job
investigating cases,
and I kept my distance and watched
to stay out of the way.
But the day you found Lee's body
and then this time.
It feels weird.
Talk to me if you're stuck on something.
When did worrying about it
on your own ever work?
Everyone who can talk is talking about it.
They're saying
you're poking around
in other people's cases
for the insurance money.
That you look down on others
since you got promoted.
Is that what you're like?
I need to know something
if I'm to cover for you.
The tip-off on the delivery
at the subway station.
It was from
my dead friend Park Jun Seo.
The 1882 text?
From the Doctor or something?
And
Lee Myung Guk whose body I found.
He was a researcher
at Keumhyung Pharmaceutical,
and he knew Jun Seo
from their high school music club.
What does Keumhyung Pharmaceutical
have to do with it?
The CEO of Keumhyung Pharmaceutical.
(We offer our deepest condolences.)
The prosecutor who did the postmortem.
Me and Oh Yoon Jin, the journalist
mentioned in the written will.
We were all in the same class
in high school.
Then
your dead friend who sent you
the Lemon Mulberry tip-off,
Keumhyung Pharmaceutical's CEO,
and the current deputy chief prosecutor
are all involved?
I see why you kept it to yourself.
Do you have an outline of the whole case?
I have my suspicions,
but they're all hard to prove.
Yoo Kyung Hwan wants to
file your friend's suicide,
Lee Myung Guk's death,
and this murder
all as separate, unrelated cases.
Are you
going to keep digging?
Yes.
I can't give permission.
But I just condoned it.
There's one more thing
I need you to condone.
Number three. Yes, that one.
Hey.
- Unit Chief Jeong.
- Salute.
What do I owe the honor?
It's no honor.
Here.
Cheol Hong, this is a rare cup of coffee.
It's almost impossible to get a coffee
Unit Chief Jeong paid for herself.
I can't believe it happened to me
before I retired.
Don't be silly.
- Are you busy?
- No.
Then can I have a word?
You're scaring me. What is this about?
Jang Jae Gyeong.
Jang Jae Gyeong?
That punk hasn't returned his gun.
How much longer
must I break the rules to put up with it?
Until
I tell you to stop.
What?
You have ten days at most.
On Monday two weeks from now,
a routine firearms
and ammo inspection is scheduled.
You must
find your gun and put it back before then.
That's the most I can do for you.
Hello?
Hello. I work at Anhyun City Hall Station.
You checked our CCTV footage.
- Yes.
- I'd like to speak with you.
Did you see it?
It's what I saw last time.
No, look.
Did you see it?
What is that?
The trains weren't in service yet,
and we'd left
the screen doors open for testing.
Here it is.
I checked yesterday
and found this on the tracks.
The money in there
It belongs to us,
the people who know the passcode.
It's more than enough
to start over anywhere,
So,
we
The money in there belongs
to you and me
since only we know the passcode.
It's
"Belongs to you and me
since only we know the passcode."
Then why did he ask CW for the passcode?
Does Tae Jin not know it?
You're right.
It sounds like a large sum of money.
Where is that money from,
and what kind of account is it?
How come only CW knows the passcode?
Is Tae Jin panicking
because he doesn't know it?
What's certain
is that it's dirty money.
Also, the original owner
of this account is Park Tae Jin.
- What?
- Right?
Listen to the conversation carefully.
CW doesn't even know
how much is in there right now.
Right.
Look.
Tae Jin says
it's enough for them to start
a new life anywhere,
but he doesn't say the amount.
This means CW has no idea
what kind of account it is.
She also has no idea
where the money came from.
So she knows the passcode,
but she can't withdraw the money.
She doesn't know
how much is in there either.
But
if Park Tae Jin is the account holder,
why wouldn't he know the passcode?
(Woohyun Hearing Aid)
Where did you get this?
It's from a crime scene.
I heard this was the only place
that supplies the product in Anhyun.
Yes, it's from our store.
Do a lot of people use this model?
Not really.
People prefer smaller
and lighter products these days.
Is it possible to tell me who bought this?
They came yesterday.
What?
They came here to get a new one
to replace the missing side.
But I don't know their name
or their number.
What did they look like?
Make a guess.
He looked like a troublemaker, no less.
They'll come back.
Usually,
people return to adjust the volume.
Hello.
I was wondering
when you would come today.
Ta-da. I kept it aside for you.
Thank you.
(Park Jun Seo, account passcode)
What are you doing?
Did you eat?
I did. Why?
No reason. I was just curious about
what you were doing.
Hey, why did you go
to Choi Ji Yeon's yesterday?
I had to check something.
And? Did you find out anything?
(And? Did you find out anything?)
No.
But how did you know I went there?
(But how did you know I went there?)
He didn't find out anything?
(But how did you know I went there?)
Well,
Joo Song dropped you off nearby,
so I made a guess.
(So I made a guess.)
Are you feeling okay?
Are you craving the drug?
(Are you craving the drug?)
I'm okay. Don't mind me and focus on work.
Are you serious?
(Don't mind me and focus on work.)
How can I not?
(Don't mind me and focus on work.)
I'm the only one who knows
you're a walking time bomb.
(Don't mind me and focus on work.)
If there are any signs, contact me.
You refused to see a doctor
until the case was solved.
This is the least I can do.
All right.
So how did Park Bok Rye's case go?
(So how did Park Bok Rye's case go?)
I'm about to call her son again.
I'll call you if I find out anything.
Hey.
You should call me too.
Don't keep information to yourself.
Fine.
(Fine.)
(KH Pharmaceutical)
It's time for the board meeting.
Okay.
(Vice-Chairman, Won Jong Soo)
Jong Soo!
(Pilo-dong Development Plan)
The chairman is here.
(Pilo-dong Development Plan)
Hey.
(Pilo-dong Development Plan)
(Chairman, Won Chang Ho)
Let's start.
(Pilo-dong Development Plan)
Now,
I will begin the presentation
on the Pilo-dong Development Plan.
What you see on the screen
is the district
in Pilo-dong planned for development.
This is Pilo-dong.
It's 1.8 million square meters.
Out of this,
eighty-one percent was bought
in advance
by you, the chairman, and our people.
The remaining 19 percent
The remaining 19 percent
is privately owned
But it won't get in the way of the plan.
But it's unlikely it'll get in the way
of this plan.
But,
if you say this,
the chairman will definitely question you.
I'm not sure if it will go smoothly.
Maybe you forgot,
but 20 years ago during
the first Anhyun development project,
we also owned a large percentage
but still faced difficulties.
We shouldn't overlook the 19 percent.
As for those landowners, how much
Right.
You have a point,
but that was 20 years ago.
Are you telling me
to ignore the chairman's opinion?
How much longer do you plan
to stay in the chairman's shadow?
If you let him walk all over you
at your first presentation,
this project will go under him too.
Won Jong Soo,
show us what you've got.
Show everyone you can lead
this project on your own.
The only thing getting in the way
of this project
is the city of Anhyun.
Mayor Joo In Sang of Anhyun thinks
Keumhyung Group made excessive earnings
during the first
and second Anhyun development plans
in 2003.
He believes Keumhyung Group made
excessive earnings.
So even if he heard
of the Pilo-dong Development Plan
via an official route
He doesn't think
Keumhyung Group should do it.
So?
What Mayor Joo In Sang wants
is not a residential town
that's over 20 years old.
What he wants is an industrial complex
that's future progressive.
("Biotechnology Professor Joo In Sang,
Blueprint for Promoting Bioindustry")
This article was written
when Mayor Joo was a university professor.
What he wants
is a bioindustrial complex.
He wants it
to attract pharmaceutical companies
and have related organizations
and labs concentrated in one area.
What he wants to make
is a large-scale industrial complex.
We need at least 30 companies for it.
In order to do this,
we need Korea's biggest Yigu Biotech
and Yongsung Pharmacy to move in.
We're already in negotiation with them,
and their feedback is positive.
Do you know Mayor Joo In Sang well?
I have yet to meet him,
but I'm aware of
what kind of person he is.
You should've met with him.
He's more ambitious
than he looks.
- Such a person
- Right.
He wants a bioindustrial complex,
but not for genuine reasons.
What Mayor Joo In Sang wants
is an achievement.
By establishing
a successful bioindustrial complex,
he can make himself look like
a politician deeply rooted in the region.
Moreover, it can create a path
for him to join the central government.
I can create
what Mayor Joo dreams of.
We'll make fair contributed acceptance
and attract investment honorably.
The chairman looked pleased.
Your speech was impressive.
Vice-Chairman,
the chairman is asking for you.
Okay.
(Anhyun Economic Daily)
- Hello?
- Is this Ms. Park Bok Rye's?
Who is this?
Hello. I visited you before.
I'm Oh Yoon Jin
from Anhyun Economic Daily.
How did you get my number?
Well
Are you the one who asked Eunsung Realty
for my number?
Yes, I'm sorry. Please don't be upset.
How can I not be upset?
How dare you go around
abusing my mother's name?
I heard you introduced yourself
as my mother's foster daughter.
I'm going to sue you.
Hey.
I know you don't dare touch
the people you should sue.
Who are you threatening to sue?
- What?
- You're her son.
Why aren't you doing anything
to prove she died unfairly?
I'm offering to help,
yet you won't see me.
I had no other choice
but to get your number.
So what?
What are you screaming for?
It's not like you're someone special.
- What did you say?
- Doesn't it make you mad?
It's clearly a medical accident,
but you're not getting any compensation.
Just sit there and sulk.
Your mother would be happy to see that.
What do you want?
What I want?
The truth behind what happened.
Come over.
How long has it been
since we texted that person
who sells Lemon Mulberry?
About two hours.
They'll reply.
The quantity is too big
for them to ignore.
Someone has to go out with him
when they get in touch.
Who wants to go?
I'll go.
I sneaked in last time
by impersonating a druggie.
You two can do it next time.
I'll go this round.
Soo Hyun, keep an eye on the text.
Okay.
(Keumhyung Group)
Did you see your friend off
at his funeral?
I did.
Here.
You should try and meet
with Mayor Joo In Sang.
Figure out exactly what he wants
before you make your move.
Yes, sir.
Was it Tae Jin's idea?
I can see traces
of his manner of speaking
in your business plan.
The same goes for your presentation.
Tell him I said this.
Don't get sidetracked
and do your best until it's wrapped.
If he needs any support,
give him the best you can.
Yes, sir.
How could you get this wrong?
(May, 2003)
(Mathematics)
Park Tae Jin?
I heard you got the highest midterm score
at school.
Yes, sir.
He was always ranked first
ever since middle school.
Of course, he entered high school
with the top marks too.
What do your parents do?
Cow
They farm cows.
They run a livestock farm
right where the city of Hwansung starts.
Jong Soo told me a lot about you.
He says you're smart and polite.
He also says you're loyal.
What kind of friend is Jong Soo to you?
(Won Jong Soo)
A rich friend.
Do you not like that he's rich?
I envy him.
I envy your parents
for having a son like you.
It seems we envy each other
for what we have.
Do you wish to be rich too?
Yes.
What will you do to become rich?
I'll continue to keep my place in first.
Until
there's no one else above me.
I always wish for Jong Soo
to get the first place.
I got him a tutor
and did everything I could with money.
But it looks like this is his limit.
How about this?
Keep your place in first place,
and I promise
to support everything you need
that requires money.
In return,
make Jong Soo the richest man in Korea.
Wouldn't that satisfy both of us?
Of course, you'd become extremely rich
if you stayed with Jong Soo.
For the next three years,
Jong Soo and Tae Jin will stay
in the same class as your students
even if they move up in grades.
As their teacher, look after them
and assign any useful individuals
to Jong Soo's class.
Yes, sir.
Young Master,
what are you doing here?
I'm sorry.
What's next on my schedule?
You have to go
to Keumhyung Pharmaceutical Lab
for the new researchers' training.
Soo Hyun, any updates?
Should I urge them to reply
saying we're in desperate need
of the drugs?
No, they'll reply. Let's wait.
What's wrong?
Captain, what are you doing here?
(Temporary Evidence Storage)
Hey, Jang Jae Gyeong.
Gosh, you scared me.
Hey, what are you doing here?
What?
I asked you what you were doing.
What's up with you?
Are you sick?
I think I have a cold.
Would you like to catch it too?
Darn it.
You need to get going soon.
Okay.
- Hello. Please come in.
- Thank you.
- Here you go.
- Oh, right.
I'll record
what you say.
Okay.
When exactly did your mother pass away?
September 11 of last year.
How
She had a brain tumor.
I see.
The hospital said she couldn't even do
chemotherapy anymore.
So, we had gotten a large prescription
for the painkillers she used to take.
It was called
Hang on.
This was it.
This was what she'd take every day.
Oh, it's written here.
Xinopharm.
(Xinopharm)
"Pain relieving medication, Xinopharm."
But that day, she seemed a bit strange.
Which day?
The day before she passed away.
After she took that medicine,
she suddenly started seizing.
She was having cold sweats,
and she was rambling too.
Then, she fell asleep.
And early the next morning,
someone kept touching my leg
while I was asleep.
So, I woke up startled.
My mother,
who hadn't even been able
to turn over in her bed by herself,
was sitting halfway up and was waking me.
(Keumhyung Pharmaceutical)
(Keumhyung Pharmaceutical,
A Talk with the CEO)
Welcome to the executives and employees
of Keumhyung Pharmaceutical
who are here today.
Today's lecture will be given by
Keumhyung Group's Vice-Chairman
and Keumhyung Pharmaceutical's CEO.
Here is CEO Won Jong Soo.
Was it Tae Jin's idea?
I can see traces
of his manner of speaking
in your business plan.
The same goes for your presentation.
I envy your parents
for having a son like you.
Everyone, here is CEO Won Jong Soo.
Let's welcome him
with a round of applause.
Vice-Chairman.
Vice-Chairman!
- What's going on?
- Wake up.
Wake up.
Out of the way!
- What happened?
- Jong Soo, wake up.
Who was that?
Here.
Oh, gosh.
Get out!
What's going on?
No one comes inside. Got it?
Jong Soo, wake up. Okay?
Jong Soo, it's okay.
Jong Soo!
Jong Soo, wake up. It's okay.
Jong Soo.
Jong Soo.
I told you that no one could come in!
Feed him this now.
Jong Soo.
Jong Soo, swallow this, okay?
Swallow this.
Jong Soo, it's okay.
Jong Soo, wake up!
Jong Soo!
Jong Soo.
At first, I was surprised,
but I thought
her condition might've improved,
so I gave her more of the medicine.
And?
Then, she passed away that evening.
I'm sure there was something weird
about that medicine.
If not, she would've had
another few months, at least
A few years more
to live.
What did the hospital say?
The hospital?
I couldn't believe it.
They said it was her time to go,
so she did.
After I heard that, I was so furious
that I cursed them out.
Then, the next day, someone came.
And they took away all of the medicine
we had gotten back then.
If that had been the case,
you could've said something
the last time I came.
Why did you avoid me?
I promised them that I wouldn't cause
any more problems on this matter.
You must've gotten compensated.
They paid me the tiniest bit.
My mother had passed away.
If you write an article about this,
will those guys say they will pay me more?
Was it the people from the hospital
who took the medicine away?
No. They came from
Keumhyung Pharmaceutical.
They said the pharmaceutical company
had to take the medicine back
to see if there was something wrong.
One moment.
This is the business card
of the person who came back then.
(Keumhyung Pharmaceutical, Park Jun Seo)
Ma'am.
We got a text.
(Let's meet around 6:30.
I'll let you know where.)
I'm sure it's rare to meet in person
to make a deal.
Didn't they suspect you?
No.
They were actually grateful,
wondering how I had stuck it out
until now.
When you first met me,
you said you hadn't taken the pill
for about a week.
Yes.
If you take four pills a day,
it would've been hard to endure
a whole week without them.
I was close to death a few times.
How did you endure it?
I'm sure you didn't quit cold turkey.
You have that kind of experience,
don't you?
When someone chokes you hard
and you're about to pass out,
but then, they let you go
for the tiniest moment,
you get a rush of air.
You feel like you can live again.
There's a pill that can help
to that degree.
What is that pill?
Come on.
I can't tell you that.
If you confiscate all of those pills too,
all of us druggies will die.
You're too greedy.
Mr. Kang,
you must be feeling comfortable
since I order you
everything you want to eat
and even let you use the phone.
Sorry.
The meeting is in Ohyeon-dong.
It's inside
the old Anhyun Shopping Mall
where several electronics stores
used to be.
Most of the stores here have
gone out of business,
so it's now empty.
They said they'd meet in Unit 44.
If they're meeting indoors,
where will we be?
We will be
hiding here.
Then, you'll have to wear a mic.
They will search your body, though.
If we sew it into his jacket,
they won't be able to find it
with a rough body check.
We don't know
how much they trust Kang Min Ho.
They'll doubt me for sure,
It's highly likely that they won't bring
the pills to that meeting.
So, even if something goes down inside,
don't come in too rashly.
Got it.
But will you be okay?
You don't look too great.
I'm good.
Don't be like that.
Should I go in?
Why not?
I'm good at acting like a druggie.
Do you want to see it?
I'm cold. Give me some pills.
- Give me some pills.
- Hey, let's hurry up and get going.
- Hurry up.
- Yes, sir.
So cold. Pills
(To be demolished)
Is this it?
You will help me, right?
We're heading in now.
This place just keeps getting
more decrepit.
Senior.
Senior.
Senior.
It's nice to meet you both.
Senior, is that you?
Min Ho!
It's been a while.
- Senior.
- Yes.
I missed you.
You psycho.
What about backup?
The patrol unit's forces are standing by
three minutes away.
Hey, you look terrible.
I can't stand to see him
in this pitiful state.
Give him a pill first.
I haven't seen you before.
Right.
Let me do a body search.
All right.
Mr. Jeon Young Kyu?
Yes.
You didn't bring any money, though.
It's in the car.
I see.
I hear you've been taking our pills.
You seem rather normal.
How did you endure it?
How?
What is that pill?
You need a prescription for it.
It's called Etaphen.
Etaphen.
Oh, that anorectic agent?
I hear lots of people took that
to hang in there.
But I'm sure that wasn't enough
to do anything.
My dear customer.
You must be in quite a rush right now.
Okay.
Since this is the protocol
in our line of work,
please understand.
Gosh, hang on.
Loosen up.
We're just trying to make you feel good.
All right. Take off your clothes.
This is watered down Lemon Mulberry.
It's a new product.
You know that it acts faster
if you inject it, right?
Give it a taste.
Aren't they sticking a needle
in Captain's arm?
Those jerks are trying to check
if he's a cop or not.
What?
A druggie would stay still,
but a cop would be afraid
of being addicted
that he'd pull his arm back
without meaning to.
Then, what about Captain?
Should we go in?
We don't know if that's really a drug
or just saline.
If we bust in without knowing,
it'll all go to waste if it's not a drug.
Captain Jang knows that,
which is why he's holding still.
Let's see.
Here comes the drug.
Okay!
We've checked your identity.
All right. This way.
- Gosh.
- Darn it.
Min Ho, take care of him.
You're handling yourself well.
Isn't it awesome?
Let's hurry. Come on.
Ta-da.
All right.
Let's go and get the money now.
Money first. Drugs later.
Okay?
That punk is a cop!
Kang Min Ho is on the run.
Darn it.
That jerk is a cop!
Min Ho, that psycho jerk.
Stop!
You darn cop!
Why?
You think wearing leather makes you a cop?
Stay still!
Who are you, lady?
If you're an old lady, go home and cook.
Sure. I'm an old lady detective.
Go home to your kitchen.
No thanks, I like eating out.
I told you to stay still.
(Connection)
(Connection)
The needle they used to inject you
We couldn't find it on the site.
Are you the one doing this to me?
This might be our last chance.
They won't just sit and watch.
It's too dangerous.
You look like you know
who killed Park Jun Seo.
Are you out of your mind?
That'll be the end of you too!
Maybe Park Tae Jin killed Park Jun Seo.
He was acting suspiciously at the funeral.
What causes
our biggest anxiety still remains.
That's why we should get rid of it.
We're heading in.
- Shall we go?
- What is this?
Yoon Jin!
Help!
Where are you right now?
(All characters, organizations,
and events in this drama are fictitious.)
What time did he go in?
Hasn't it been over 30 minutes?
It has.
Hey.
What?
How do you know the passcode
to their place?
I know what you're thinking.
I told him.
I rushed to the hospital
when I heard of Jun Seo's news.
Prosecutor Park wanted to double-check
although it was a suicide,
so he asked to drop by
and look through our laptop
or any memos
Ji Yeon,
I told you to change the passcode.
I tried it just in case,
and you haven't changed it.
If you don't know how to change it,
shall I do it for you?
No. I'll change it myself.
Okay.
You took a look at Jun Seo's laptop?
Why?
I wanted to see if anything indicated
something other than suicide.
He could've left a suicide note.
And rather than
have detectives come and go,
Ji Yeon said she'd prefer it
if I came by as a friend.
Why are you here at this hour?
What do you mean "this hour?"
A civil servant
usually gets off work at this hour.
It's not a special timeframe.
Why are you here?
Ji Yeon wanted to know
how the investigation would proceed.
I'd said I'd visit when I could.
And I chose to come today.
Okay?
What about you?
What are you doing here?
I'll go now.
Okay.
Step aside.
Why did you come here?
Step aside.
Mr. Park.
I'm sorry to say this when you came by.
It's a bit late, and I'm tired.
I'll meet you near your office one day.
That would be better, right?
Call me when you're free to come by.
I'll leave you, then.
Bye.
(Connection)
What did you come to ask her?
How is the investigation proceeding?
What?
You called it a suicide.
I'm wondering what investigation
there could possibly be
for you to come and explain.
We did an autopsy,
and Ji Yeon was concerned too.
(Episode 6)
They're coming out.
What's going on?
Did Jang Jae Gyeong not catch on?
It looks like it.
He's so slow.
Isn't it obvious what it is
if a man visits a woman
after sundown?
Inspector Jang arrived after sundown too.
Darn you.
- Hey.
- What?
Where is she going?
Look.
Hey.
- Follow her.
- Okay.
- Take care.
- Thanks.
(Every second counts for the informant.)
Hello.
Everyone went out?
Yes, to have dinner.
Did you look into CEO Yoon?
Yes, but I didn't find much.
Where did you go
and what did you look into?
I asked the meth dealers I knew.
But no one had heard of CEO Yoon.
It's possible the person changes names.
Dealers tend to do that.
Is that it?
I'll ask around some more.
Captain.
Did I do something to upset you?
You've been treating me differently.
I tried to think of a reason,
but I couldn't come up with one.
The night Lee Myung Guk's house
burned down.
You returned to the station
instead of securing the scene.
- Yes.
- Why?
I'd noticed a car
speeding away from the scene.
I thought it would take a while to put
the fire out and Forensics to start,
so I decided to give chase.
And I saw the car
drive into the police station.
And then?
Did you come into the office?
Yes.
When you came in
What was the situation like?
There was no one here.
What?
The room was empty
when I came in, but
Soo Hyun's desk area was a mess.
- And then?
- I cleaned up,
then went downstairs
to see the CCTV footage.
Why?
To locate you and because
the office situation seemed off.
And?
The system
failed to record what had happened then.
I told the security staff to fix it.
They couldn't.
The bottom line is that
I should've stayed and managed
the Lee Myung Guk scene,
and I know it was my mistake
to leave early.
I know you must think
- I lack in many ways and
- No.
It's not that. Don't mind it.
I was a bit too tired
and on edge, I guess.
Hey, she pulled over. Stop the car.
- Yoon Jin.
- What?
Over there.
Hey.
- Did you bring your camera?
- You bet.
Here.
Look at that punk smile.
Are you having fun?
What's that?
I suddenly craved some caffeine.
Are you the only one that needs caffeine?
You should learn to share.
I'm heading in.
Okay. Take care.
Thanks.
Shall we move tables?
Drink your coffee.
(Oh Yoon Jin)
(Oh Yoon Jin)
Why did you come over so suddenly?
I didn't know Jae Gyeong would be there.
You should've texted me.
It didn't sound off, did it?
Did he suspect anything?
We got away with it.
What did he want?
He asked to see Jun Seo's laptop
and some USB flash drives.
He looked for videos and played them all.
Videos? Like what?
I sat next to him and watched.
They were clips of Yoon Hee
or stuff we'd taken on trips.
I don't know what he was looking for,
but I don't think he found it.
Don't mind him. There's nothing he can do.
So,
did you give it some thought?
About what?
About what I said last time.
About leaving together?
Wasn't that a joke?
- I'm not in the mood for jokes.
- Do you think I am?
You barged in out of the blue
and strangled me,
demanding I hand over the passcode.
- And now you want to leave together?
- A passcode?
He strangled her?
I apologized profusely
and more than enough for that.
Let's not drag it on.
If I give you the passcode,
will you really leave with me?
Yes.
You say you'll quit your job
and elope with me,
but why can't you say
you'll get a divorce?
Isn't that the right order?
Get a divorce.
Then I'll give you the passcode
and go anywhere with you.
I will get a divorce,
but not in the order you want, Ji Yeon.
You can't get divorced overnight.
If we move abroad together,
I can get someone
to file the paperwork for me.
- Why is that so important?
- It is important.
I don't want to be
an adulterer who fools around
with married men.
So until you bring me
the signed divorce papers,
I won't tell you anything.
Give me your hand.
Come on.
Ji Yeon.
I love you.
What's most important to us now
is our sincere love for each other.
And
my feelings won't change.
At this moment
and in the future,
what's most important to me
is you.
What a joke.
The money in there
It belongs to us,
the people who know the passcode.
It's more than enough
to start over anywhere,
so let's
be a little wiser.
Give me a little more time.
It's not an easy decision for me either.
Shall we leave?
Let's get something nice to eat.
What are you doing? Follow them.
They'll notice if I follow them there too.
Darn it.
Did you have breakfast?
I haven't yet, so I'm hungry.
But then and even now,
I've never been able to eat
after paying my respects to a victim.
Shall we have some gukbap?
He wouldn't have died
if not for me.
Why guilt-trip yourself?
Catch the killer.
He was watching me from close by.
He learned about the camera because of me.
He knew I'd go back to my car,
and he used that opening.
Jae Gyeong.
Are you hiding something
from me these days?
You always did a good job
investigating cases,
and I kept my distance and watched
to stay out of the way.
But the day you found Lee's body
and then this time.
It feels weird.
Talk to me if you're stuck on something.
When did worrying about it
on your own ever work?
Everyone who can talk is talking about it.
They're saying
you're poking around
in other people's cases
for the insurance money.
That you look down on others
since you got promoted.
Is that what you're like?
I need to know something
if I'm to cover for you.
The tip-off on the delivery
at the subway station.
It was from
my dead friend Park Jun Seo.
The 1882 text?
From the Doctor or something?
And
Lee Myung Guk whose body I found.
He was a researcher
at Keumhyung Pharmaceutical,
and he knew Jun Seo
from their high school music club.
What does Keumhyung Pharmaceutical
have to do with it?
The CEO of Keumhyung Pharmaceutical.
(We offer our deepest condolences.)
The prosecutor who did the postmortem.
Me and Oh Yoon Jin, the journalist
mentioned in the written will.
We were all in the same class
in high school.
Then
your dead friend who sent you
the Lemon Mulberry tip-off,
Keumhyung Pharmaceutical's CEO,
and the current deputy chief prosecutor
are all involved?
I see why you kept it to yourself.
Do you have an outline of the whole case?
I have my suspicions,
but they're all hard to prove.
Yoo Kyung Hwan wants to
file your friend's suicide,
Lee Myung Guk's death,
and this murder
all as separate, unrelated cases.
Are you
going to keep digging?
Yes.
I can't give permission.
But I just condoned it.
There's one more thing
I need you to condone.
Number three. Yes, that one.
Hey.
- Unit Chief Jeong.
- Salute.
What do I owe the honor?
It's no honor.
Here.
Cheol Hong, this is a rare cup of coffee.
It's almost impossible to get a coffee
Unit Chief Jeong paid for herself.
I can't believe it happened to me
before I retired.
Don't be silly.
- Are you busy?
- No.
Then can I have a word?
You're scaring me. What is this about?
Jang Jae Gyeong.
Jang Jae Gyeong?
That punk hasn't returned his gun.
How much longer
must I break the rules to put up with it?
Until
I tell you to stop.
What?
You have ten days at most.
On Monday two weeks from now,
a routine firearms
and ammo inspection is scheduled.
You must
find your gun and put it back before then.
That's the most I can do for you.
Hello?
Hello. I work at Anhyun City Hall Station.
You checked our CCTV footage.
- Yes.
- I'd like to speak with you.
Did you see it?
It's what I saw last time.
No, look.
Did you see it?
What is that?
The trains weren't in service yet,
and we'd left
the screen doors open for testing.
Here it is.
I checked yesterday
and found this on the tracks.
The money in there
It belongs to us,
the people who know the passcode.
It's more than enough
to start over anywhere,
So,
we
The money in there belongs
to you and me
since only we know the passcode.
It's
"Belongs to you and me
since only we know the passcode."
Then why did he ask CW for the passcode?
Does Tae Jin not know it?
You're right.
It sounds like a large sum of money.
Where is that money from,
and what kind of account is it?
How come only CW knows the passcode?
Is Tae Jin panicking
because he doesn't know it?
What's certain
is that it's dirty money.
Also, the original owner
of this account is Park Tae Jin.
- What?
- Right?
Listen to the conversation carefully.
CW doesn't even know
how much is in there right now.
Right.
Look.
Tae Jin says
it's enough for them to start
a new life anywhere,
but he doesn't say the amount.
This means CW has no idea
what kind of account it is.
She also has no idea
where the money came from.
So she knows the passcode,
but she can't withdraw the money.
She doesn't know
how much is in there either.
But
if Park Tae Jin is the account holder,
why wouldn't he know the passcode?
(Woohyun Hearing Aid)
Where did you get this?
It's from a crime scene.
I heard this was the only place
that supplies the product in Anhyun.
Yes, it's from our store.
Do a lot of people use this model?
Not really.
People prefer smaller
and lighter products these days.
Is it possible to tell me who bought this?
They came yesterday.
What?
They came here to get a new one
to replace the missing side.
But I don't know their name
or their number.
What did they look like?
Make a guess.
He looked like a troublemaker, no less.
They'll come back.
Usually,
people return to adjust the volume.
Hello.
I was wondering
when you would come today.
Ta-da. I kept it aside for you.
Thank you.
(Park Jun Seo, account passcode)
What are you doing?
Did you eat?
I did. Why?
No reason. I was just curious about
what you were doing.
Hey, why did you go
to Choi Ji Yeon's yesterday?
I had to check something.
And? Did you find out anything?
(And? Did you find out anything?)
No.
But how did you know I went there?
(But how did you know I went there?)
He didn't find out anything?
(But how did you know I went there?)
Well,
Joo Song dropped you off nearby,
so I made a guess.
(So I made a guess.)
Are you feeling okay?
Are you craving the drug?
(Are you craving the drug?)
I'm okay. Don't mind me and focus on work.
Are you serious?
(Don't mind me and focus on work.)
How can I not?
(Don't mind me and focus on work.)
I'm the only one who knows
you're a walking time bomb.
(Don't mind me and focus on work.)
If there are any signs, contact me.
You refused to see a doctor
until the case was solved.
This is the least I can do.
All right.
So how did Park Bok Rye's case go?
(So how did Park Bok Rye's case go?)
I'm about to call her son again.
I'll call you if I find out anything.
Hey.
You should call me too.
Don't keep information to yourself.
Fine.
(Fine.)
(KH Pharmaceutical)
It's time for the board meeting.
Okay.
(Vice-Chairman, Won Jong Soo)
Jong Soo!
(Pilo-dong Development Plan)
The chairman is here.
(Pilo-dong Development Plan)
Hey.
(Pilo-dong Development Plan)
(Chairman, Won Chang Ho)
Let's start.
(Pilo-dong Development Plan)
Now,
I will begin the presentation
on the Pilo-dong Development Plan.
What you see on the screen
is the district
in Pilo-dong planned for development.
This is Pilo-dong.
It's 1.8 million square meters.
Out of this,
eighty-one percent was bought
in advance
by you, the chairman, and our people.
The remaining 19 percent
The remaining 19 percent
is privately owned
But it won't get in the way of the plan.
But it's unlikely it'll get in the way
of this plan.
But,
if you say this,
the chairman will definitely question you.
I'm not sure if it will go smoothly.
Maybe you forgot,
but 20 years ago during
the first Anhyun development project,
we also owned a large percentage
but still faced difficulties.
We shouldn't overlook the 19 percent.
As for those landowners, how much
Right.
You have a point,
but that was 20 years ago.
Are you telling me
to ignore the chairman's opinion?
How much longer do you plan
to stay in the chairman's shadow?
If you let him walk all over you
at your first presentation,
this project will go under him too.
Won Jong Soo,
show us what you've got.
Show everyone you can lead
this project on your own.
The only thing getting in the way
of this project
is the city of Anhyun.
Mayor Joo In Sang of Anhyun thinks
Keumhyung Group made excessive earnings
during the first
and second Anhyun development plans
in 2003.
He believes Keumhyung Group made
excessive earnings.
So even if he heard
of the Pilo-dong Development Plan
via an official route
He doesn't think
Keumhyung Group should do it.
So?
What Mayor Joo In Sang wants
is not a residential town
that's over 20 years old.
What he wants is an industrial complex
that's future progressive.
("Biotechnology Professor Joo In Sang,
Blueprint for Promoting Bioindustry")
This article was written
when Mayor Joo was a university professor.
What he wants
is a bioindustrial complex.
He wants it
to attract pharmaceutical companies
and have related organizations
and labs concentrated in one area.
What he wants to make
is a large-scale industrial complex.
We need at least 30 companies for it.
In order to do this,
we need Korea's biggest Yigu Biotech
and Yongsung Pharmacy to move in.
We're already in negotiation with them,
and their feedback is positive.
Do you know Mayor Joo In Sang well?
I have yet to meet him,
but I'm aware of
what kind of person he is.
You should've met with him.
He's more ambitious
than he looks.
- Such a person
- Right.
He wants a bioindustrial complex,
but not for genuine reasons.
What Mayor Joo In Sang wants
is an achievement.
By establishing
a successful bioindustrial complex,
he can make himself look like
a politician deeply rooted in the region.
Moreover, it can create a path
for him to join the central government.
I can create
what Mayor Joo dreams of.
We'll make fair contributed acceptance
and attract investment honorably.
The chairman looked pleased.
Your speech was impressive.
Vice-Chairman,
the chairman is asking for you.
Okay.
(Anhyun Economic Daily)
- Hello?
- Is this Ms. Park Bok Rye's?
Who is this?
Hello. I visited you before.
I'm Oh Yoon Jin
from Anhyun Economic Daily.
How did you get my number?
Well
Are you the one who asked Eunsung Realty
for my number?
Yes, I'm sorry. Please don't be upset.
How can I not be upset?
How dare you go around
abusing my mother's name?
I heard you introduced yourself
as my mother's foster daughter.
I'm going to sue you.
Hey.
I know you don't dare touch
the people you should sue.
Who are you threatening to sue?
- What?
- You're her son.
Why aren't you doing anything
to prove she died unfairly?
I'm offering to help,
yet you won't see me.
I had no other choice
but to get your number.
So what?
What are you screaming for?
It's not like you're someone special.
- What did you say?
- Doesn't it make you mad?
It's clearly a medical accident,
but you're not getting any compensation.
Just sit there and sulk.
Your mother would be happy to see that.
What do you want?
What I want?
The truth behind what happened.
Come over.
How long has it been
since we texted that person
who sells Lemon Mulberry?
About two hours.
They'll reply.
The quantity is too big
for them to ignore.
Someone has to go out with him
when they get in touch.
Who wants to go?
I'll go.
I sneaked in last time
by impersonating a druggie.
You two can do it next time.
I'll go this round.
Soo Hyun, keep an eye on the text.
Okay.
(Keumhyung Group)
Did you see your friend off
at his funeral?
I did.
Here.
You should try and meet
with Mayor Joo In Sang.
Figure out exactly what he wants
before you make your move.
Yes, sir.
Was it Tae Jin's idea?
I can see traces
of his manner of speaking
in your business plan.
The same goes for your presentation.
Tell him I said this.
Don't get sidetracked
and do your best until it's wrapped.
If he needs any support,
give him the best you can.
Yes, sir.
How could you get this wrong?
(May, 2003)
(Mathematics)
Park Tae Jin?
I heard you got the highest midterm score
at school.
Yes, sir.
He was always ranked first
ever since middle school.
Of course, he entered high school
with the top marks too.
What do your parents do?
Cow
They farm cows.
They run a livestock farm
right where the city of Hwansung starts.
Jong Soo told me a lot about you.
He says you're smart and polite.
He also says you're loyal.
What kind of friend is Jong Soo to you?
(Won Jong Soo)
A rich friend.
Do you not like that he's rich?
I envy him.
I envy your parents
for having a son like you.
It seems we envy each other
for what we have.
Do you wish to be rich too?
Yes.
What will you do to become rich?
I'll continue to keep my place in first.
Until
there's no one else above me.
I always wish for Jong Soo
to get the first place.
I got him a tutor
and did everything I could with money.
But it looks like this is his limit.
How about this?
Keep your place in first place,
and I promise
to support everything you need
that requires money.
In return,
make Jong Soo the richest man in Korea.
Wouldn't that satisfy both of us?
Of course, you'd become extremely rich
if you stayed with Jong Soo.
For the next three years,
Jong Soo and Tae Jin will stay
in the same class as your students
even if they move up in grades.
As their teacher, look after them
and assign any useful individuals
to Jong Soo's class.
Yes, sir.
Young Master,
what are you doing here?
I'm sorry.
What's next on my schedule?
You have to go
to Keumhyung Pharmaceutical Lab
for the new researchers' training.
Soo Hyun, any updates?
Should I urge them to reply
saying we're in desperate need
of the drugs?
No, they'll reply. Let's wait.
What's wrong?
Captain, what are you doing here?
(Temporary Evidence Storage)
Hey, Jang Jae Gyeong.
Gosh, you scared me.
Hey, what are you doing here?
What?
I asked you what you were doing.
What's up with you?
Are you sick?
I think I have a cold.
Would you like to catch it too?
Darn it.
You need to get going soon.
Okay.
- Hello. Please come in.
- Thank you.
- Here you go.
- Oh, right.
I'll record
what you say.
Okay.
When exactly did your mother pass away?
September 11 of last year.
How
She had a brain tumor.
I see.
The hospital said she couldn't even do
chemotherapy anymore.
So, we had gotten a large prescription
for the painkillers she used to take.
It was called
Hang on.
This was it.
This was what she'd take every day.
Oh, it's written here.
Xinopharm.
(Xinopharm)
"Pain relieving medication, Xinopharm."
But that day, she seemed a bit strange.
Which day?
The day before she passed away.
After she took that medicine,
she suddenly started seizing.
She was having cold sweats,
and she was rambling too.
Then, she fell asleep.
And early the next morning,
someone kept touching my leg
while I was asleep.
So, I woke up startled.
My mother,
who hadn't even been able
to turn over in her bed by herself,
was sitting halfway up and was waking me.
(Keumhyung Pharmaceutical)
(Keumhyung Pharmaceutical,
A Talk with the CEO)
Welcome to the executives and employees
of Keumhyung Pharmaceutical
who are here today.
Today's lecture will be given by
Keumhyung Group's Vice-Chairman
and Keumhyung Pharmaceutical's CEO.
Here is CEO Won Jong Soo.
Was it Tae Jin's idea?
I can see traces
of his manner of speaking
in your business plan.
The same goes for your presentation.
I envy your parents
for having a son like you.
Everyone, here is CEO Won Jong Soo.
Let's welcome him
with a round of applause.

Vice-Chairman!
- What's going on?
- Wake up.
Wake up.
Out of the way!
- What happened?
- Jong Soo, wake up.
Who was that?
Here.
Oh, gosh.
Get out!
What's going on?
No one comes inside. Got it?
Jong Soo, wake up. Okay?
Jong Soo, it's okay.
Jong Soo!
Jong Soo, wake up. It's okay.
Jong Soo.
Jong Soo.
I told you that no one could come in!
Feed him this now.
Jong Soo.
Jong Soo, swallow this, okay?
Swallow this.
Jong Soo, it's okay.
Jong Soo, wake up!
Jong Soo!
Jong Soo.
At first, I was surprised,
but I thought
her condition might've improved,
so I gave her more of the medicine.
And?
Then, she passed away that evening.
I'm sure there was something weird
about that medicine.
If not, she would've had
another few months, at least
A few years more
to live.
What did the hospital say?
The hospital?
I couldn't believe it.
They said it was her time to go,
so she did.
After I heard that, I was so furious
that I cursed them out.
Then, the next day, someone came.
And they took away all of the medicine
we had gotten back then.
If that had been the case,
you could've said something
the last time I came.
Why did you avoid me?
I promised them that I wouldn't cause
any more problems on this matter.
You must've gotten compensated.
They paid me the tiniest bit.
My mother had passed away.
If you write an article about this,
will those guys say they will pay me more?
Was it the people from the hospital
who took the medicine away?
No. They came from
Keumhyung Pharmaceutical.
They said the pharmaceutical company
had to take the medicine back
to see if there was something wrong.
One moment.
This is the business card
of the person who came back then.
(Keumhyung Pharmaceutical, Park Jun Seo)
Ma'am.
We got a text.
(Let's meet around 6:30.
I'll let you know where.)
I'm sure it's rare to meet in person
to make a deal.
Didn't they suspect you?
No.
They were actually grateful,
wondering how I had stuck it out
until now.
When you first met me,
you said you hadn't taken the pill
for about a week.
Yes.
If you take four pills a day,
it would've been hard to endure
a whole week without them.
I was close to death a few times.
How did you endure it?
I'm sure you didn't quit cold turkey.
You have that kind of experience,
don't you?
When someone chokes you hard
and you're about to pass out,
but then, they let you go
for the tiniest moment,
you get a rush of air.
You feel like you can live again.
There's a pill that can help
to that degree.
What is that pill?
Come on.
I can't tell you that.
If you confiscate all of those pills too,
all of us druggies will die.
You're too greedy.
Mr. Kang,
you must be feeling comfortable
since I order you
everything you want to eat
and even let you use the phone.
Sorry.
The meeting is in Ohyeon-dong.
It's inside
the old Anhyun Shopping Mall
where several electronics stores
used to be.
Most of the stores here have
gone out of business,
so it's now empty.
They said they'd meet in Unit 44.
If they're meeting indoors,
where will we be?
We will be
hiding here.
Then, you'll have to wear a mic.
They will search your body, though.
If we sew it into his jacket,
they won't be able to find it
with a rough body check.
We don't know
how much they trust Kang Min Ho.
They'll doubt me for sure,
It's highly likely that they won't bring
the pills to that meeting.
So, even if something goes down inside,
don't come in too rashly.
Got it.
But will you be okay?
You don't look too great.
I'm good.
Don't be like that.
Should I go in?
Why not?
I'm good at acting like a druggie.
Do you want to see it?
I'm cold. Give me some pills.
- Give me some pills.
- Hey, let's hurry up and get going.
- Hurry up.
- Yes, sir.
So cold. Pills
(To be demolished)
Is this it?
You will help me, right?
We're heading in now.
This place just keeps getting
more decrepit.
Senior.
Senior.
Senior.
It's nice to meet you both.
Senior, is that you?
Min Ho!
It's been a while.
- Senior.
- Yes.
I missed you.
You psycho.
What about backup?
The patrol unit's forces are standing by
three minutes away.
Hey, you look terrible.
I can't stand to see him
in this pitiful state.
Give him a pill first.
I haven't seen you before.
Right.
Let me do a body search.
All right.
Mr. Jeon Young Kyu?
Yes.
You didn't bring any money, though.
It's in the car.
I see.
I hear you've been taking our pills.
You seem rather normal.
How did you endure it?
How?
What is that pill?
You need a prescription for it.
It's called Etaphen.
Etaphen.
Oh, that anorectic agent?
I hear lots of people took that
to hang in there.
But I'm sure that wasn't enough
to do anything.
My dear customer.
You must be in quite a rush right now.
Okay.
Since this is the protocol
in our line of work,
please understand.
Gosh, hang on.
Loosen up.
We're just trying to make you feel good.
All right. Take off your clothes.
This is watered down Lemon Mulberry.
It's a new product.
You know that it acts faster
if you inject it, right?
Give it a taste.
Aren't they sticking a needle
in Captain's arm?
Those jerks are trying to check
if he's a cop or not.
What?
A druggie would stay still,
but a cop would be afraid
of being addicted
that he'd pull his arm back
without meaning to.
Then, what about Captain?
Should we go in?
We don't know if that's really a drug
or just saline.
If we bust in without knowing,
it'll all go to waste if it's not a drug.
Captain Jang knows that,
which is why he's holding still.
Let's see.
Here comes the drug.
Okay!
We've checked your identity.
All right. This way.
- Gosh.
- Darn it.
Min Ho, take care of him.
You're handling yourself well.
Isn't it awesome?
Let's hurry. Come on.
Ta-da.
All right.
Let's go and get the money now.
Money first. Drugs later.
Okay?
That punk is a cop!
Kang Min Ho is on the run.
Darn it.
That jerk is a cop!
Min Ho, that psycho jerk.
Stop!
You darn cop!
Why?
You think wearing leather makes you a cop?
Stay still!
Who are you, lady?
If you're an old lady, go home and cook.
Sure. I'm an old lady detective.
Go home to your kitchen.
No thanks, I like eating out.
I told you to stay still.
(Connection)
(Connection)
The needle they used to inject you
We couldn't find it on the site.
Are you the one doing this to me?
This might be our last chance.
They won't just sit and watch.
It's too dangerous.
You look like you know
who killed Park Jun Seo.
Are you out of your mind?
That'll be the end of you too!
Maybe Park Tae Jin killed Park Jun Seo.
He was acting suspiciously at the funeral.
What causes
our biggest anxiety still remains.
That's why we should get rid of it.
We're heading in.
- Shall we go?
- What is this?
Yoon Jin!
Help!
Where are you right now?
