Hey, Kyung Tae.
Chae Kyung Tae!
Where's the ramyeon?
In the kitchen.
Check inside the cabinets.
In the cabinets?
I can't find it.
Look harder.
Come and take a look. It's not here.
Why can't you find it?
- It's right here.
- Where?
I see. It's here.
Is it that difficult to find?
Here it is.
Darn it.
Come on.
Why did you spill that?
It was because of you.
Make sure you clean that up well.
It stinks.
- Don't add in too much water.
- Don't worry.
- No Gyu Min.
- Yes?
- Lend me your lighter.
- My lighter?
Let's see.
Here.
Okay.
I need to pee.
It's on.
Darn it.
Is there no electricity?
There's no running water or gas.
Would there be electricity?
Darn it.
It's quiet today.
Is there no protest?
They went to talk to Won Jong Soo's dad.
If things go well,
they might get compensated.
Hey, Chae Kyung Tae!
- What's this?
- What's what?
What are you staring at?
Darn you.
Won Jong Soo?
Are you insane?
Jong Soo, a fire.
Be quiet.
Oh Chi Hyun, stand him up.
You need to
remember your place, Kyung Tae.

(Episode 9)
(Tuesday, March 5)
Isn't it your day off?
It is.
I'll go to Cheongwoon Temple.
Go back to sleep.
(Gyeonggi 34A5253)
(Gyeonggi 34A5253)
Young Eun. Open the door.
Jeong Young Eun!
Who is it?
What are you doing here?
Is Yoon Ho home?
He's out.
Isn't it his day off?
It is.
He went to Cheongwoon Temple to pray.
Cheongwoon Temple.
It's on Mount Injeok.
It's a bit off Route 392 to Hwansung City.
Captain Jang, we'll get Jeong Yoon Ho.
You stay there.
We'll get you backup from the patrol unit.
Talk to the family
and keep them distracted.
Be sure they don't talk to Jeong Yoon Ho.
Can I wait inside?
Okay.
Whose car is this?
It's mine.
What about it?
I'm just taking a look.
The compact vehicle in front
has tape over the license plates.
It's hard to track it down.
Is the car unlocked?
I think so?
What's this about?
Is someone taking an exam?
What?
You said he went to pray.
He goes to pray for this and that
on his days off.
Come in.
Goodness.
Your daughter?
Yes. She's in seventh grade.
Time flies, doesn't it?
Being a mom reminds me of
when I was in school.
Back then, we had so much fun together
whatever we did.
Right?
Can I sit down?
Yes.
Yoon Ho.
Is he in trouble?
Was it a traffic accident?
Was he drunk?
I knew today was his day off.
I came by early to take him away
as quietly as possible.
But here we are.
Did
the other detectives go to get him?
You know
he has a record, right?
I found out recently.
He didn't
do the same thing, did he?
He can't have.
He promised me he wouldn't do it again.
His friends are his everything.
Even now, he went to pray
for Jong Soo's business to do well
and for Tae Jin to become
the public prosecutor general.
Gosh.
He cares more about his friends
than his own family.
The case is still open.
So
do something about it.
You're good at what you do.
You can help out a friend.
Jae Gyeong.
The case is still open.
So what?
Are you saying you'll arrest Yoon Ho?
You are.
I'd forgotten that about you.
Years ago
you coaxed kind Jun Seo
into reporting your classmates
to the police.
What?
Are you getting revenge
for getting kicked out of school?
- You loser.
- Si Jung.
You came to take Yoon Ho quietly?
Don't be stupid.
How dare you pretend
to be considerate when you came
right at the time
our kid gets ready for school?
You're just a scumbag!
Si Jung.
Mom, I'm off to school.
Hey, sweetie.
Run away.
Get out of there.
Detectives are on the way.
Don't come home.
You can't get caught, okay?
Don't ever get caught!
Please take this child to school.
This officer will take you to school.
Let's go.
- Search the inside of the house.
- Yes, sir.
Call the forensics team
and tell them to analyze that car.
- Yes, sir.
- Yes, sir.
Unit Chief.
Yes, we're almost there.
We're 3km away.
Jeong Yoon Ho's wife told him
that you were on the way.
What? What are you saying?
What were you doing
that you couldn't even stop that?
Sorry, ma'am.
All right.
Darn it.
What did the chief say?
Did he just say to let it go?
I told you to look closely
at each of the taxis!
A taxi driver turned out to be
the culprit in the end!
This case got passed on
to Jang Jae Gyeong as a whole.
Park Jun Seo, Lee Myung Guk,
and the mill owner's case. All of it.
Seriously.
Yes, Prosecutor.
Do you have time for a call right now?
Didn't we get anything
from the CCTV cameras?
We got footage of Jeong Yoon Ho
leaving Cheongwoon Temple.
And after that?
He was caught on CCTV cameras again
on Route 887
toward Hwansung.
We haven't located him after that.
From now on,
the mill murder case is ours too.
As you know, the suspect, Jeong Yoon Ho,
and his wife, Kang Si Jung,
are all Inspector Jang's
high school friends.
I think it'd be best
for Soo Hyun to lead this case.
You agree, right?
Yes, ma'am.
You can investigate Lemon Mulberry
and back Soo Hyun up.
First, look for places
where he might be hiding out.
Ask the local precincts
for CCTV footage from nearby.
- Yes, ma'am.
- Yes, ma'am.
(Park Jun Seo)
You're doing well.
Don't take more than
two pills this time either.
(CCTV Recording)
Hey, did you check it out?
Yes, there was a package here,
just like you said.
How many pills are there?
Four. And there's a note.
Should I read it for you?
No.
Did you take those pills?
Yes.
How is it? Does it help?
I'm not sure yet.
I just took it for the first time.
Are you at the police station now?
Yes, I'm on my way out now.
- Where to?
- Why?
What will you do if you go into shock
and pass out?
How touching.
Someone should stay by your side
until we confirm that those pills help.
So, where are you going?
CEO Won, today at 10 a.m.
And Vice-Chairman Han Sung Hoon
of Yigu Group is planning to visit
Why is Han Sung Hoon coming here?
I believe it's about
Yigu Group's regular board meeting
in two days.
What do you think?
Will Yigu invest in us?
It's hard to be certain
that the board will approve.
Those on the inside predict
it's about 50-50.
I can't believe
I'm so worried about the results
of another company's board meeting.
And Park Tae Jin
Tell him to come for dinner tonight.
(Pilo-dong Development Plan
Development Project Overview)
Vice President Han Sung Hoon
of Yigu Electronics is here.
Yes, send him in.
We just saw each other
a few days ago.
What did you want to say
that you called me here?
You could've just told me over the phone.
Did you just come from home?
Of course.
Where else would I have come from?
You know I take a day off every week.
By the way, what is it you want to say?
- Are you out of your mind right now?
- What?
The board meeting is in two days,
but you're lounging around at home?
Hey.
Does anything change
if I go and sit there?
If it's going to get passed,
it'll happen whether I'm there or not.
And if it isn't going to get passed,
it won't pass whether I'm there or not.
- It won't get passed anyway
- Hey!
Darn it.
Hurry up, right this instant.
Get changed and go to the office.
Go and do everything you can
until the end.
Meet with the board members
who are for the bioindustrial complex
and get their word for it.
If any punks are against it,
either buy them off or threaten them
to get this passed by the board. Got it?
Gosh, what's wrong with you?
- I told you.
- Hey, Sung Hoon. You
Both of us have to put our lives
on the line for this.
We have to show them this time.
We should show anyone with eyes
that we're the next owners
of these companies.
- Isn't that right?
- That's Right.
Yes, you're right.
Okay, I understand.
Calm down,
and let's grab some lunch first
I have nothing more to say to you.
Just get going.
Go. Hurry up,
and have lunch
with your company's directors.
Gosh, punk. Why are you
acting like this all of a sudden?
(Say no to redevelopment
without the residents' agreement!)
Jeong Yoon Ho was watching you
from over there?
(We press our own oils.)
Yoon Ho didn't get
Jun Seo's call that day.
Judging by what he did at the funeral,
he might not even have come here, no?
That's what's weird.
Even at the funeral, Won Jong Soo,
Park Tae Jin, and Oh Chi Hyun
didn't mention coming to
the construction site
on the day Jun Seo died
until the very end.
Right.
But why did Jeong Yoon Ho,
who didn't even come here,
kill a man just to get rid of
that CCTV camera?
He wouldn't have even been on it.
Did the other guys make him do it?
Maybe they asked him to get rid of it
just in case.
Yoon Ho didn't come prepared
with a weapon.
He found out about that CCTV camera
and committed an unplanned murder.
(We press our own oils.)
What about Jeong Yoon Ho?
Did he get caught?
He must've run off for now,
but he will get caught soon
if we leave him be.
That idiot punk.
- Did you try calling him?
- His phone is turned off.
Let's wait. He has no one else
to ask for help but us.
I'm sure he'll call
once he gets somewhere safe.
He could've called Si Jung!
Si Jung is at the police station too.
What?
They must be questioning her
for helping Yoon Ho get away.
Is it Jang Jae Gyeong again?
What will you do now?
We'll have to help him hide.
We don't know what Jang Jae Gyeong has
as of now.
Hey.
I'm just coming from meeting with
Vice President Han of Yigu Electronics.
Their board meeting is in two days,
and we're really so close to the end.
But if we get tangled up
in Jeong Yoon Ho's case now,
it'll all be over, Tae Jin.
It's highly likely
that Yoon Ho will call you.
If he calls,
tell him not to get any other ideas
and to lie low.
Got it.
What I find odd is
How did Jang Jae Gyeong
pinpoint Jeong Yoon Ho
as the murderer of the mill owner?
Apparently, he suspected the taxi driver
from the beginning.
What if that punk, Jang Jae Gyeong,
had a copy of the CCTV footage
from the beginning?
Are you sure we weren't on there?
Jae Gyeong already knew.
What?
He came to see me yesterday morning.
He already knew
that we were all gathered
at the construction site
the night Jun Seo died.
So?
What did you say to him?
I told him the truth.
We rode the elevator up,
and Jun Seo jumped from the ninth floor.
Why did you tell us that just now?
You had an important meeting ahead of you.
And did Jang Jae Gyeong believe that?
I don't know
what he's thinking on the inside.
He asked me if I killed Jun Seo
and if you ordered me to do it.
What?
So what did you say?
I told him no,
not as far as I know.
"Not as far as I know?"
You two.
Why did you go to the construction site
so obediently?
What?
It was nearing midnight.
It wasn't like you to come out
just because he called you.
Jong Soo.
It wasn't you, was it?
Jerk. What are you talking about?
Why would I kill Jun Seo?
What about you?
Why did you show up that night?
I killed Lee Myung Guk.
Why?
Why would you?
Did I ask you to kill him for me?
I didn't!
Lee Myung Guk
constantly threatened you through me.
He demanded 100 dollars
for each pill made
with the natural narcotics
he discovered, or
He threatened to tell the world
about you
and Yigu Group's Vice President Han
that you two were addicted.
(Pilo Station)
Doctor!
Get in.
Where are you suddenly taking me?
You know, to be honest,
the price you want is too much.
Get in first.
We can't discuss it here.
I knew this would happen.
I thought you might get suspicious,
so I took a taxi.
It's not like I can abduct you
with a taxi.
Hurry and get in.
Come on, get in. Go on.
Initially, my plan was to just scare him.
Gosh.
Punk.
You punk.
Hey.
Stop.
Push.
So?
You left Lee Myung Guk's body
in Youngryun Cold Storage?
Yes.
(Youngryun Cold Storage)
Do you remember our visit
to Lee Myung Guk's place?
I told you that his body was frozen
at first,
but was recently buried,
and that someone had dug it back up
to place it in his house.
Don't tell me he was here.
Did they leave him frozen
at this place for seven months?
The moment we discovered the body,
Molotov cocktails were thrown in.
And Yoon Ho was the one who threw them.
Yoon Ho?
Why? Why would he?
Whoever left Lee's body there
must have told Yoon Ho
that the man he killed and buried
was dug back up and placed at home.
Did Yoon Ho kill Lee Myung Guk too?
Yoon Ho showed up at that house
to get rid of Lee Myung Guk's body.
So Jeong Yoon Ho killed
the owner of the mill
and Lee Myung Guk.
But nothing connects them.
What if you had the body
of Lee Myung Guk stored
at Youngryun Cold Storage
and was planning to retrieve it?
Which route would you take?
These two streets lead
to a main street.
I would probably come from this way
to avoid security cameras.
I'd pass the mill
The security camera.
Yoon Ho killed the owner of the mill
and attempted to get rid
of the security footage
because he thought
he was caught on camera
when he came to the storage
to retrieve the body of Lee Myung Guk.
Also,
when Yoon Ho's taxi passed
the street in front of the mill,
I doubt
Yoon Ho was alone.
When did you take him out
of Youngryun Cold Storage?
Around 1:30 a.m. that day.
"That day?"
The day Jun Seo died.
Jun Seo called and told me
if I didn't show up by 11:30 p.m.,
the police would go to the storage
the next morning
to find Lee Myung Guk's body,
and that he'd confess we were behind it.
Does that mean Jun Seo had evidence?
He said he did.
Yoon Ho killed that mill owner
because he was trying to get rid of
the security footage we were on.
Don't make excuses for him.
Then what about Lee Myung Guk's body?
Who put it back in his home?
That's what I don't know.
Hey.
Don't tell me you don't know.
Who else aside from you and Yoon Ho knew
about moving the corpse?
No one.
Seriously, no one knows about it.
Don't say that and try to remember.
Ever since the body was found,
Jae Gyeong has been poking at everything.
You shouldn't have made such a mess
to begin with,
or at least cleaned it up well.
I'm frustrated too.
If it wasn't one of us, who was it?
It means someone
was following you two that day.
How else would a buried corpse
return home?
There must be at least two people.
What?
Yoon Ho and I struggled to move him.
It's not a one-man job.
(Maintain safety together
for a safe Anhyun)
Looking at the color of your face,
it looks like the drug is working.
Should we meet around 7:00 p.m.?
Who do you think killed Park Jun Seo?
For now,
- I think it's Park Tae Jin.
- Why?
He performed
the postmortem screening himself.
He tried hard to stop the autopsy too.
He's also having an affair
with Choi Ji Yeon.
Do you think it was Tae Jin
who drugged me too?
Park Jun Seo made drug deliveries
for Won Jong Soo.
Despite that, he shared information
about a drug deal with me
with the code 1882 before he was killed.
As soon as I received the information,
I was abducted
and drugged.
Do you think
Won Jong Soo made Lemon Mulberry
and sold it?
I see.
That's possible too.
You're from the Narcotics Unit,
and Jong Soo must have known
that you recently got a special promotion.
If he could drug you
and get you out of the picture,
it would allow him to get rid of
a big threat to his drug business.
But,
after they drugged me,
they could've left me anywhere.
But they dragged me to the scene
of a drug deal.
It was as if they were setting me up
to catch the culprit. Why?
What if
someone is using you
to get at Won Jong Soo?
It would keep their hands clean
if they could take advantage of you
with the drug.
They can break up the organization
behind the Lemon Mulberry
and can corner Won Jong Soo
and drive him out.
No way.
Hey.
I've already started.
I'm sorry I'm late.
You work for the state.
It's hard to keep time.
Take a seat.
Yes, sir.
I'm sorry, but I can't drink.
I have to go back to work after.
Okay.
Here.
The old lady who used
to run this place died five years ago,
but the food tastes the same.
Gosh.
A person's taste can be the most cunning.
I wonder how people who take over
manage to keep the food tasting the same.
- Isn't it impressive?
- It is, yes.
Jong Soo.
Do you think
he'll do well if he succeeds me?
I can't even ask you a question.
- Eat up.
- I will.
I read your business proposal.
Thank you.
But why does
the asset management company
have so many attachments?
Yigu Group will ask for an opening
to siphon money,
- and Keumhyung too
- Is that
what you want in return
for designing the business?
To make a secret opening
to siphon money from
behind Jong Soo and my backs?
The reason I kept you close
since you were young is
because I believed you knew
where the line was drawn.
You're crossing the line.
I'm confident, Chairman Won.
This project will be a success.
Trust me once more.
Why are you doing this?
Twenty years ago,
when Anhyun City was established,
my father failed to grab the opportunity.
He sold his cattle one by one
and lived off of the tiny amount
he got as compensation
before dying as a nobody.
I don't want to be like my father.
I will make this opportunity count.
I'll use this project
to go all the way and make Jong Soo
the richest man ever.
Let me take part in it.
You're just a deputy chief prosecutor.
I have many other contacts.
Prosecution office directors, ministers,
supreme court judges, assemblymen.
I can get them
to make the impossible possible
and cover up mistakes.
Would I have let you
stay close to Jong Soo for that long
only to use you to do that?
If you want to keep your promise
of making him the richest man ever,
you must remain a prosecutor
instead of joining this project
and continue to do
what you have been doing.
Do your job.
Chairman.
Aren't we in the same boat now?
At last
I see for sure what you were thinking.
You think you can't be replaced.
Don't you?
You were there beside me
and Jong Soo for 20 years,
and each time I made an important decision
I heard your advice.
Do you think
that made you family?
Sir, I meant
The moment you give up your duty,
you mean nothing to me.
Do not get on my nerves,
remain silent,
and remain in your position.
Hello.
I ordered an ice cream cake.
It's for Heo Joo Song.
Okay. How long do you need to travel?
About an hour?
Here you go.
- Are there candles too?
- Yes.
Thank you.
- Thank you. Bye.
- Bye.
Hello.
Hey, you got here early.
I had something to set up.
- What's that?
- It's Yoon Jin's birthday.
We should surprise her.
It's frozen so hard
the candle won't go in.
Is it cold on your balcony?
Let's hide it there
and bring it out later.
I need you to cooperate.
You're in charge of the lighting.
It all depends on you.
- It's Yoon Jin.
- Why is she here so early?
Hang on.
I'll hide out on the balcony.
The balcony. Wait.
Give me a while.
Don't open the door yet.
Just wait.
See you later. Okay?
Hey, hi.
Hang on.
So what? Choi Ji Yeon
No.
CW. Is she leaving?
Yes, in full makeup too.
What are they up to?
Follow her.
Yoon Jin. Can't we stop now?
All I do is follow people to motels.
I've been feeling a sense of shame
because I didn't become
a reporter to do this.
Hang on a bit. We're almost there.
We need to figure out
the password Park Tae Jin wants.
What if she goes right into the motel?
Then you can go home.
Hey.
We'll make some progress today.
That's how things look right now.
If Park Tae Jin keeps feeling rushed,
there's a possibility
that she might reveal everything today.
It's not like CW
will tell the passcode for all to hear.
You don't know what Park Tae Jin's like.
He's going to make Choi Ji Yeon
tell him the password no matter what.
Even if we don't get the password,
Tae Jin might say what the account is
and how much is in it.
Stop complaining
and get a recording, okay?
Okay.
Text me when they meet up.
What's this weird atmosphere?
Your call ended?
Yes.
Where were you?
I just got here.
As if.
I saw your shoes and jacket as I came in.
I was on the toilet.
Gosh, my stomach.
The toilet? Okay.
Did you read Lee Myung Guk's work logs?
- Yes.
- Yes.
Hey, we looked and found nothing.
It's just a list of times
and places or names.
Yes. Did you find a phone or something?
- Yoon Jin.
- Yes?
What character do you think this is?
What CEO doesn't know this?
It's "pil." It means "at all costs"
or "without fail."
It's "pil," right?
I thought so,
but the handwriting was dreadful.
Hang on.
Look at this.
It's here too.
Oh, it's the same.
(March 18, 2023, Research lab,
"necessary," "discussion")
It's here too.
It's at 9 p.m.
Did he work overtime?
Then, at 7 a.m
or at 9 p.m. "Research lab."
"Necessary. Discussion."
Does this mean there was something
he needed to discuss?
Jeong Sang Eui.
What?
I think this is referring
to Jeong Sang Eui.
Jeong Sang Eui was
Lee Myung Guk's direct junior researcher
at Keumhyung Pharmaceutical.
What?
Why are you only telling us that now?
I'm telling you now.
Didn't you know? I knew that already.
Hey, how would I know about
what's going on with Jeong Sang Eui?
Gosh, hang on. So, what's going on?
Then, whether it was at 7 a.m. or 9 p.m.,
he met with Sang Eui in person
at the research lab no matter what.
Is there a meeting that's not necessary
to meet in person?
Hey, could this be
Hang on.
(Pilo-dong in Chinese characters)
I was right.
The character for "pil"
that means necessary
is used in the name, "Pilo-dong."
- Pilo-dong?
- Research lab. Pilo-dong.
Jeong Sang Eui. What's this?
Youngryun Cold Storage.
I checked on the way.
Keumhyung Pharmaceutical owns
Youngryun Cold Storage.
(Certified copy of real estate register)
But there was no office there.
There was nothing there when we went.
The search and seizure warrant
will be issued soon.
We should go and look through the place.
Okay. I'm coming too.
(9 p.m., Research lab,
Pilo-dong, Sang Eui)
Is this it?
Yes.
They left right after that.
Yes, I understand.
Then, I'll be going home now.
Yes, thank you.
Why are they only talking
in the car today?
Go to a motel or something.
I'm starving.
What's that?
Let me take this call.
The cake will melt.
Gosh, you're right.
Yes, what happened?
They didn't go anywhere today
and were only talking in the car.
But CW just left and is on the move.
Alone?
Yes.
Did they perhaps fight?
I wouldn't know.
They only stayed in the car.
But the direction she's headed
is the complete opposite of her house.
Which direction is it?
Oh, hang on.
What is it?
She just went into an apartment complex.
Which apartment?
Park Tae Jin's apartment?
I'm not sure. I can't see very well.
That can't be.
Park Tae Jin is married
and even has a kid.
Is his house empty today?
Gosh.
Those two are getting so bold.
She's at the entrance
of the apartment now.
What about Park Tae Jin?
Is he not there yet?
No. I'm not sure,
but I don't think he's here yet.
- Go in after her.
- But I'll be caught.
Still, you could check
the building and unit number.
Hang on.
Well, it's not the first floor.
How many floors is the whole building?
Three floors.
Hang on.
She's headed to the second floor.
What?
What's the apartment called?
Taekyung Apartment.
Taekyung Apartment,
Building 306, 2nd floor.
Hello.
Yes, hello.
Come in.
(What's going on?)
What's going on?
Hold.
(293D3929)
(293D3929)
(293D3929)
(293D3929)
(Building 306, Unit 202,
Taekyung Apartment)
(Taekyung, 306)
How did you know to come here?
I was wondering how to deliver this,
but then, I heard you had a meeting today.
I'm not sure if it'll help.
Oh, you must've gotten the results
for the Safe Inheritance One-stop Service.
Gosh, you could've told me this
over the phone.
Jun Seo's bank account information,
his insurance policies
His bank account information?
Most of them, I already knew about.
But one of them is weird.
Which one?
Out of the insurance policies below,
there was a pension insurance
that Jun Seo got 11 years ago.
He had it since before our marriage,
but I had no idea about it.
So, I asked the insurance company
and an old lady in her 60s in Boryeong
has been receiving the pension.
Boryeong, South Chungcheong Province?
Yes, neither Jun Seo nor I have
any connections to that place.
So, did you go there?
Not yet.
What about the address?
Have you found that out?
- Yes.
- Then, please tell us the address.
Well,
didn't you say you came
in case you could help?
Let's go together.
All of us.
Us?
Jun Seo's case
is still being investigated by the police.
We haven't gotten the autopsy results
from the NFS yet either.
Anything that might serve as proof
in revealing Jun Seo's cause of death
should be left to the police
to investigate, even if you're curious.
If that's why you came,
you made the right decision.
I told you this before, Joo Song,
but the life insurance money
that my husband left behind
He left it to the two of you
because he needed to use it as bait
for you to reveal the truth
about his wrongful death.
"Bait?"
Did you just say it was bait?
Where are you going?
You heard her.
She told me this before.
Then, I already know this part.
You two can talk amongst yourselves.
So?
If the insurance payout was
five million dollars,
The insurance payment
must have been expensive.
Where do you think that money came from?
He probably paid it with our money.
- So?
- So
That five million dollars
As a matter of fact, it belongs to me.
Hold on.
What kind of nonsense is this?
Yoon Jin.
Hey.
The insurance money belongs
to the recipient.
Who cares who paid for it?
Also, if it's yours, it's yours.
What do you mean it's a matter of fact?
I'm speechless.
He didn't give it
to his closest friends
or his sole family member.
He left the two of you his insurance money
although he hardly contacted you.
You found that strange too.
Isn't this a matter
of being shameless or not?
- "Shameless?"
- Yoon Jin.
Ji Yeon.
Let me talk casually
since I'm a few years older.
I can let everything pass,
but it makes me sick
to hear you say the word "shameless."
What did you say?
How dare you call me shameless?
If you want to keep your promise
of making him the richest man ever,
you must remain a prosecutor
instead of joining this project
and do your job.
The moment you give up your duty,
you mean nothing to me.
Do not get on my nerves,
remain silent,
and remain in your position.
I'm afraid
one day I won't even see you
as a friend of my child.
You're so busy.
Are you sure we can go to Jeju Island?
I already booked the hotel and the flight.
Don't worry, I can make it.
Doesn't your family say anything?
You're always away on weekends.
What?
No.
(Park Jun Seo)
- Yes, Jun Seo. Why
- Are you with Ji Yeon?
At 11:30 p.m.,
show up at the construction site
by the Pilo-dong three-way intersection.
Come around the back alley
where you'll find an open entrance.
A construction site?
Why at this hour?
Tae Jin, I can't go on any longer.
I intend to tell the guys
- what we've been up to.
- Jun Seo.
You said we'd stop
if we reached 500,000 dollars.
But you didn't listen to my request,
and I had no choice
but to let my daughter go.
On top of that, now
Jun Seo.
Not today. Let's talk one-on-one.
- You're too emotional right now.
- You're wrong.
My mind's clearer than ever.
I can see everything clearly.
I'm scared too,
but
if I can turn anything back,
I must do it.
- Jun Seo.
- When you get there,
you'll learn something new
about the other guys too.
See you in a bit.
Park Jun Seo.
Yes?
Hello?
Tae Jin. It's me, Yoon Ho.
What? Where are you?
I'm still in Anhyun.
Why did you call me?
- I'm hanging up.
- I'm calling from a payphone.
Tae Jin,
please help me.
You can't call me like this.
How can I help you?
I don't have anything else to say.
Don't call me again.
Jun Seo's wife.
Did Jun Seo know about it?
That you have
a thing with her?
- What did you say?
- I noticed you met her today too.
I wonder what Jong Soo will say
when he finds out.
He might think you killed Jun Seo
because of it.
- Are you out of your mind?
- Yes.
I'm crazy. So what?
You have to help me!
I know you can.
I can leave the logs here, right?
I'll get going.
Yoon Jin!
Happy birthday
To you
Happy birthday to you
- Happy birthday, dear Yoon Jin
- Happy birthday, dear Yoon Jin
- Happy birthday to you
- Happy birthday to you
- What are you doing?
- I'm sorry.
I didn't know things would turn this way.
But still, it's your birthday.
I can't just skip over it.
Hey, this is dripping.
Just blow them out,
make a wish, and eat the cake.
Please don't be so angry.
Happy?
Is today
your birthday?
Yes.
Ji Yeon! What's the matter?
Are you all right?
Are you okay?
Ji Yeon!
Ji Yeon?
Was it what she ate?
Please choose your four-digit passcode.
(8 years ago)
What should we use?
(Never share your passcode.)
What is that?
It's just the one I've been using
for a long time.
- Really?
- Yes.
Should we use that from now on?
- Sure.
- Okay.
(March 5, Tuesday)
Are you all right?
Gosh.
I'm leaving too.
Already?
I blew out the candles, didn't I?
The cake melted too.
This man has been tailing Park Tae Jin
and Choi Ji Yeon for the last while.
I'm sending pictures to you
because I find him suspicious.
(This man has been tailing Park Tae Jin
and Choi Ji Yeon for the last while.)
(I'm sending pictures to you
because I find him suspicious.)
That's Jeong Yoon Ho.
Jae Gyeong.
This is in front of my house.
Jae Gyeong!
What's going on?
Jeong Yoon Ho!
(Connection)
(You're doing well.)
(Don't take more than two pills
this time either.)
(Connection)
Once this weekend is over,
that money means nothing to me.
- Oh Yoon Jin.
- Whoever opens that box is the owner.
If anyone murdered Jun Seo
and staged it as a suicide,
you're the only one I can think of.
No, Gong Jin Wook!
He's the one behind everything.
Detective, come and arrest them quietly.
Kim Chang Soo!
What are you doing here?
What's wrong with detectives these days?
One's a druggie, and
Shut your mouth!
Both of them died.
Now, you're the only one left
who took the drug.
It looks like the answer is out.
Did you order them to kill both?
- Hey!
- Am I wrong?
I killed Lee Myung Guk,
and I killed Park Jun Seo too.

Hey, Kyung Tae.
Chae Kyung Tae!
Where's the ramyeon?
In the kitchen.
Check inside the cabinets.
In the cabinets?
I can't find it.
Look harder.
Come and take a look. It's not here.
Why can't you find it?
- It's right here.
- Where?
I see. It's here.
Is it that difficult to find?
Here it is.
Darn it.
Come on.
Why did you spill that?
It was because of you.
Make sure you clean that up well.
It stinks.
- Don't add in too much water.
- Don't worry.
- No Gyu Min.
- Yes?
- Lend me your lighter.
- My lighter?
Let's see.
Here.
Okay.
I need to pee.
It's on.
Darn it.
Is there no electricity?
There's no running water or gas.
Would there be electricity?
Darn it.
It's quiet today.
Is there no protest?
They went to talk to Won Jong Soo's dad.
If things go well,
they might get compensated.
Hey, Chae Kyung Tae!
- What's this?
- What's what?
What are you staring at?
Darn you.
Won Jong Soo?
Are you insane?
Jong Soo, a fire.
Be quiet.
Oh Chi Hyun, stand him up.
You need to
remember your place, Kyung Tae.

(Episode 9)
(Tuesday, March 5)
Isn't it your day off?
It is.
I'll go to Cheongwoon Temple.
Go back to sleep.
(Gyeonggi 34A5253)
(Gyeonggi 34A5253)
Young Eun. Open the door.
Jeong Young Eun!
Who is it?
What are you doing here?
Is Yoon Ho home?
He's out.
Isn't it his day off?
It is.
He went to Cheongwoon Temple to pray.
Cheongwoon Temple.
It's on Mount Injeok.
It's a bit off Route 392 to Hwansung City.
Captain Jang, we'll get Jeong Yoon Ho.
You stay there.
We'll get you backup from the patrol unit.
Talk to the family
and keep them distracted.
Be sure they don't talk to Jeong Yoon Ho.
Can I wait inside?
Okay.
Whose car is this?
It's mine.
What about it?
I'm just taking a look.
The compact vehicle in front
has tape over the license plates.
It's hard to track it down.
Is the car unlocked?
I think so?
What's this about?
Is someone taking an exam?
What?
You said he went to pray.
He goes to pray for this and that
on his days off.
Come in.
Goodness.
Your daughter?
Yes. She's in seventh grade.
Time flies, doesn't it?
Being a mom reminds me of
when I was in school.
Back then, we had so much fun together
whatever we did.
Right?
Can I sit down?
Yes.
Yoon Ho.
Is he in trouble?
Was it a traffic accident?
Was he drunk?
I knew today was his day off.
I came by early to take him away
as quietly as possible.
But here we are.
Did
the other detectives go to get him?
You know
he has a record, right?
I found out recently.
He didn't
do the same thing, did he?
He can't have.
He promised me he wouldn't do it again.
His friends are his everything.
Even now, he went to pray
for Jong Soo's business to do well
and for Tae Jin to become
the public prosecutor general.
Gosh.
He cares more about his friends
than his own family.
The case is still open.
So
do something about it.
You're good at what you do.
You can help out a friend.
Jae Gyeong.
The case is still open.
So what?
Are you saying you'll arrest Yoon Ho?
You are.
I'd forgotten that about you.
Years ago
you coaxed kind Jun Seo
into reporting your classmates
to the police.
What?
Are you getting revenge
for getting kicked out of school?
- You loser.
- Si Jung.
You came to take Yoon Ho quietly?
Don't be stupid.
How dare you pretend
to be considerate when you came
right at the time
our kid gets ready for school?
You're just a scumbag!
Si Jung.
Mom, I'm off to school.
Hey, sweetie.
Run away.
Get out of there.
Detectives are on the way.
Don't come home.
You can't get caught, okay?
Don't ever get caught!
Please take this child to school.
This officer will take you to school.
Let's go.
- Search the inside of the house.
- Yes, sir.
Call the forensics team
and tell them to analyze that car.
- Yes, sir.
- Yes, sir.
Unit Chief.
Yes, we're almost there.
We're 3km away.
Jeong Yoon Ho's wife told him
that you were on the way.
What? What are you saying?
What were you doing
that you couldn't even stop that?
Sorry, ma'am.
All right.
Darn it.
What did the chief say?
Did he just say to let it go?
I told you to look closely
at each of the taxis!
A taxi driver turned out to be
the culprit in the end!
This case got passed on
to Jang Jae Gyeong as a whole.
Park Jun Seo, Lee Myung Guk,
and the mill owner's case. All of it.
Seriously.
Yes, Prosecutor.
Do you have time for a call right now?
Didn't we get anything
from the CCTV cameras?
We got footage of Jeong Yoon Ho
leaving Cheongwoon Temple.
And after that?
He was caught on CCTV cameras again
on Route 887
toward Hwansung.
We haven't located him after that.
From now on,
the mill murder case is ours too.
As you know, the suspect, Jeong Yoon Ho,
and his wife, Kang Si Jung,
are all Inspector Jang's
high school friends.
I think it'd be best
for Soo Hyun to lead this case.
You agree, right?
Yes, ma'am.
You can investigate Lemon Mulberry
and back Soo Hyun up.
First, look for places
where he might be hiding out.
Ask the local precincts
for CCTV footage from nearby.
- Yes, ma'am.
- Yes, ma'am.
(Park Jun Seo)
You're doing well.
Don't take more than
two pills this time either.
(CCTV Recording)
Hey, did you check it out?
Yes, there was a package here,
just like you said.
How many pills are there?
Four. And there's a note.
Should I read it for you?
No.
Did you take those pills?
Yes.
How is it? Does it help?
I'm not sure yet.
I just took it for the first time.
Are you at the police station now?
Yes, I'm on my way out now.
- Where to?
- Why?
What will you do if you go into shock
and pass out?
How touching.
Someone should stay by your side
until we confirm that those pills help.
So, where are you going?
CEO Won, today at 10 a.m.
And Vice-Chairman Han Sung Hoon
of Yigu Group is planning to visit
Why is Han Sung Hoon coming here?
I believe it's about
Yigu Group's regular board meeting
in two days.
What do you think?
Will Yigu invest in us?
It's hard to be certain
that the board will approve.
Those on the inside predict
it's about 50-50.
I can't believe
I'm so worried about the results
of another company's board meeting.
And Park Tae Jin
Tell him to come for dinner tonight.
(Pilo-dong Development Plan
Development Project Overview)
Vice President Han Sung Hoon
of Yigu Electronics is here.
Yes, send him in.
We just saw each other
a few days ago.
What did you want to say
that you called me here?
You could've just told me over the phone.
Did you just come from home?
Of course.
Where else would I have come from?
You know I take a day off every week.
By the way, what is it you want to say?
- Are you out of your mind right now?
- What?
The board meeting is in two days,
but you're lounging around at home?
Hey.
Does anything change
if I go and sit there?
If it's going to get passed,
it'll happen whether I'm there or not.
And if it isn't going to get passed,
it won't pass whether I'm there or not.
- It won't get passed anyway
- Hey!
Darn it.
Hurry up, right this instant.
Get changed and go to the office.
Go and do everything you can
until the end.
Meet with the board members
who are for the bioindustrial complex
and get their word for it.
If any punks are against it,
either buy them off or threaten them
to get this passed by the board. Got it?
Gosh, what's wrong with you?
- I told you.
- Hey, Sung Hoon. You
Both of us have to put our lives
on the line for this.
We have to show them this time.
We should show anyone with eyes
that we're the next owners
of these companies.
- Isn't that right?
- That's Right.
Yes, you're right.
Okay, I understand.
Calm down,
and let's grab some lunch first
I have nothing more to say to you.
Just get going.
Go. Hurry up,
and have lunch
with your company's directors.
Gosh, punk. Why are you
acting like this all of a sudden?
(Say no to redevelopment
without the residents' agreement!)
Jeong Yoon Ho was watching you
from over there?
(We press our own oils.)
Yoon Ho didn't get
Jun Seo's call that day.
Judging by what he did at the funeral,
he might not even have come here, no?
That's what's weird.
Even at the funeral, Won Jong Soo,
Park Tae Jin, and Oh Chi Hyun
didn't mention coming to
the construction site
on the day Jun Seo died
until the very end.
Right.
But why did Jeong Yoon Ho,
who didn't even come here,
kill a man just to get rid of
that CCTV camera?
He wouldn't have even been on it.
Did the other guys make him do it?
Maybe they asked him to get rid of it
just in case.
Yoon Ho didn't come prepared
with a weapon.
He found out about that CCTV camera
and committed an unplanned murder.
(We press our own oils.)
What about Jeong Yoon Ho?
Did he get caught?
He must've run off for now,
but he will get caught soon
if we leave him be.
That idiot punk.
- Did you try calling him?
- His phone is turned off.
Let's wait. He has no one else
to ask for help but us.
I'm sure he'll call
once he gets somewhere safe.
He could've called Si Jung!
Si Jung is at the police station too.
What?
They must be questioning her
for helping Yoon Ho get away.
Is it Jang Jae Gyeong again?
What will you do now?
We'll have to help him hide.
We don't know what Jang Jae Gyeong has
as of now.
Hey.
I'm just coming from meeting with
Vice President Han of Yigu Electronics.
Their board meeting is in two days,
and we're really so close to the end.
But if we get tangled up
in Jeong Yoon Ho's case now,
it'll all be over, Tae Jin.
It's highly likely
that Yoon Ho will call you.
If he calls,
tell him not to get any other ideas
and to lie low.
Got it.
What I find odd is
How did Jang Jae Gyeong
pinpoint Jeong Yoon Ho
as the murderer of the mill owner?
Apparently, he suspected the taxi driver
from the beginning.
What if that punk, Jang Jae Gyeong,
had a copy of the CCTV footage
from the beginning?
Are you sure we weren't on there?
Jae Gyeong already knew.
What?
He came to see me yesterday morning.
He already knew
that we were all gathered
at the construction site
the night Jun Seo died.
So?
What did you say to him?
I told him the truth.
We rode the elevator up,
and Jun Seo jumped from the ninth floor.
Why did you tell us that just now?
You had an important meeting ahead of you.
And did Jang Jae Gyeong believe that?
I don't know
what he's thinking on the inside.
He asked me if I killed Jun Seo
and if you ordered me to do it.
What?
So what did you say?
I told him no,
not as far as I know.
"Not as far as I know?"
You two.
Why did you go to the construction site
so obediently?
What?
It was nearing midnight.
It wasn't like you to come out
just because he called you.
Jong Soo.
It wasn't you, was it?
Jerk. What are you talking about?
Why would I kill Jun Seo?
What about you?
Why did you show up that night?
I killed Lee Myung Guk.
Why?
Why would you?
Did I ask you to kill him for me?
I didn't!
Lee Myung Guk
constantly threatened you through me.
He demanded 100 dollars
for each pill made
with the natural narcotics
he discovered, or
He threatened to tell the world
about you
and Yigu Group's Vice President Han
that you two were addicted.
(Pilo Station)
Doctor!
Get in.
Where are you suddenly taking me?
You know, to be honest,
the price you want is too much.
Get in first.
We can't discuss it here.
I knew this would happen.
I thought you might get suspicious,
so I took a taxi.
It's not like I can abduct you
with a taxi.
Hurry and get in.
Come on, get in. Go on.
Initially, my plan was to just scare him.
Gosh.
Punk.
You punk.
Hey.
Stop.
Push.
So?
You left Lee Myung Guk's body
in Youngryun Cold Storage?
Yes.
(Youngryun Cold Storage)
Do you remember our visit
to Lee Myung Guk's place?
I told you that his body was frozen
at first,
but was recently buried,
and that someone had dug it back up
to place it in his house.
Don't tell me he was here.
Did they leave him frozen
at this place for seven months?
The moment we discovered the body,
Molotov cocktails were thrown in.
And Yoon Ho was the one who threw them.
Yoon Ho?
Why? Why would he?
Whoever left Lee's body there
must have told Yoon Ho
that the man he killed and buried
was dug back up and placed at home.
Did Yoon Ho kill Lee Myung Guk too?
Yoon Ho showed up at that house
to get rid of Lee Myung Guk's body.
So Jeong Yoon Ho killed
the owner of the mill
and Lee Myung Guk.
But nothing connects them.
What if you had the body
of Lee Myung Guk stored
at Youngryun Cold Storage
and was planning to retrieve it?
Which route would you take?
These two streets lead
to a main street.
I would probably come from this way
to avoid security cameras.
I'd pass the mill
The security camera.
Yoon Ho killed the owner of the mill
and attempted to get rid
of the security footage
because he thought
he was caught on camera
when he came to the storage
to retrieve the body of Lee Myung Guk.
Also,
when Yoon Ho's taxi passed
the street in front of the mill,
I doubt
Yoon Ho was alone.
When did you take him out
of Youngryun Cold Storage?
Around 1:30 a.m. that day.
"That day?"
The day Jun Seo died.
Jun Seo called and told me
if I didn't show up by 11:30 p.m.,
the police would go to the storage
the next morning
to find Lee Myung Guk's body,
and that he'd confess we were behind it.
Does that mean Jun Seo had evidence?
He said he did.
Yoon Ho killed that mill owner
because he was trying to get rid of
the security footage we were on.
Don't make excuses for him.
Then what about Lee Myung Guk's body?
Who put it back in his home?
That's what I don't know.
Hey.
Don't tell me you don't know.
Who else aside from you and Yoon Ho knew
about moving the corpse?
No one.
Seriously, no one knows about it.
Don't say that and try to remember.
Ever since the body was found,
Jae Gyeong has been poking at everything.
You shouldn't have made such a mess
to begin with,
or at least cleaned it up well.
I'm frustrated too.
If it wasn't one of us, who was it?
It means someone
was following you two that day.
How else would a buried corpse
return home?
There must be at least two people.
What?
Yoon Ho and I struggled to move him.
It's not a one-man job.
(Maintain safety together
for a safe Anhyun)
Looking at the color of your face,
it looks like the drug is working.
Should we meet around 7:00 p.m.?
Who do you think killed Park Jun Seo?
For now,
- I think it's Park Tae Jin.
- Why?
He performed
the postmortem screening himself.
He tried hard to stop the autopsy too.
He's also having an affair
with Choi Ji Yeon.
Do you think it was Tae Jin
who drugged me too?
Park Jun Seo made drug deliveries
for Won Jong Soo.
Despite that, he shared information
about a drug deal with me
with the code 1882 before he was killed.
As soon as I received the information,
I was abducted
and drugged.
Do you think
Won Jong Soo made Lemon Mulberry
and sold it?
I see.
That's possible too.
You're from the Narcotics Unit,
and Jong Soo must have known
that you recently got a special promotion.
If he could drug you
and get you out of the picture,
it would allow him to get rid of
a big threat to his drug business.
But,
after they drugged me,
they could've left me anywhere.
But they dragged me to the scene
of a drug deal.
It was as if they were setting me up
to catch the culprit. Why?
What if
someone is using you
to get at Won Jong Soo?
It would keep their hands clean
if they could take advantage of you
with the drug.
They can break up the organization
behind the Lemon Mulberry
and can corner Won Jong Soo
and drive him out.
No way.
Hey.
I've already started.
I'm sorry I'm late.
You work for the state.
It's hard to keep time.
Take a seat.
Yes, sir.
I'm sorry, but I can't drink.
I have to go back to work after.
Okay.
Here.
The old lady who used
to run this place died five years ago,
but the food tastes the same.
Gosh.
A person's taste can be the most cunning.
I wonder how people who take over
manage to keep the food tasting the same.
- Isn't it impressive?
- It is, yes.
Jong Soo.
Do you think
he'll do well if he succeeds me?
I can't even ask you a question.
- Eat up.
- I will.
I read your business proposal.
Thank you.
But why does
the asset management company
have so many attachments?
Yigu Group will ask for an opening
to siphon money,
- and Keumhyung too
- Is that
what you want in return
for designing the business?
To make a secret opening
to siphon money from
behind Jong Soo and my backs?
The reason I kept you close
since you were young is
because I believed you knew
where the line was drawn.
You're crossing the line.
I'm confident, Chairman Won.
This project will be a success.
Trust me once more.
Why are you doing this?
Twenty years ago,
when Anhyun City was established,
my father failed to grab the opportunity.
He sold his cattle one by one
and lived off of the tiny amount
he got as compensation
before dying as a nobody.
I don't want to be like my father.
I will make this opportunity count.
I'll use this project
to go all the way and make Jong Soo
the richest man ever.
Let me take part in it.
You're just a deputy chief prosecutor.
I have many other contacts.
Prosecution office directors, ministers,
supreme court judges, assemblymen.
I can get them
to make the impossible possible
and cover up mistakes.
Would I have let you
stay close to Jong Soo for that long
only to use you to do that?
If you want to keep your promise
of making him the richest man ever,
you must remain a prosecutor
instead of joining this project
and continue to do
what you have been doing.
Do your job.
Chairman.
Aren't we in the same boat now?
At last
I see for sure what you were thinking.
You think you can't be replaced.
Don't you?
You were there beside me
and Jong Soo for 20 years,
and each time I made an important decision
I heard your advice.
Do you think
that made you family?
Sir, I meant
The moment you give up your duty,
you mean nothing to me.
Do not get on my nerves,
remain silent,
and remain in your position.
Hello.
I ordered an ice cream cake.
It's for Heo Joo Song.
Okay. How long do you need to travel?
About an hour?
Here you go.
- Are there candles too?
- Yes.
Thank you.
- Thank you. Bye.
- Bye.
Hello.
Hey, you got here early.
I had something to set up.
- What's that?
- It's Yoon Jin's birthday.
We should surprise her.
It's frozen so hard
the candle won't go in.
Is it cold on your balcony?
Let's hide it there
and bring it out later.
I need you to cooperate.
You're in charge of the lighting.
It all depends on you.
- It's Yoon Jin.
- Why is she here so early?
Hang on.
I'll hide out on the balcony.
The balcony. Wait.
Give me a while.
Don't open the door yet.
Just wait.
See you later. Okay?
Hey, hi.
Hang on.
So what? Choi Ji Yeon
No.
CW. Is she leaving?
Yes, in full makeup too.
What are they up to?
Follow her.
Yoon Jin. Can't we stop now?
All I do is follow people to motels.
I've been feeling a sense of shame
because I didn't become
a reporter to do this.
Hang on a bit. We're almost there.
We need to figure out
the password Park Tae Jin wants.
What if she goes right into the motel?
Then you can go home.
Hey.
We'll make some progress today.
That's how things look right now.
If Park Tae Jin keeps feeling rushed,
there's a possibility
that she might reveal everything today.
It's not like CW
will tell the passcode for all to hear.
You don't know what Park Tae Jin's like.
He's going to make Choi Ji Yeon
tell him the password no matter what.
Even if we don't get the password,
Tae Jin might say what the account is
and how much is in it.
Stop complaining
and get a recording, okay?
Okay.
Text me when they meet up.
What's this weird atmosphere?
Your call ended?
Yes.
Where were you?
I just got here.
As if.
I saw your shoes and jacket as I came in.
I was on the toilet.
Gosh, my stomach.
The toilet? Okay.
Did you read Lee Myung Guk's work logs?
- Yes.
- Yes.
Hey, we looked and found nothing.
It's just a list of times
and places or names.
Yes. Did you find a phone or something?
- Yoon Jin.
- Yes?
What character do you think this is?
What CEO doesn't know this?
It's "pil." It means "at all costs"
or "without fail."
It's "pil," right?
I thought so,
but the handwriting was dreadful.
Hang on.
Look at this.
It's here too.
Oh, it's the same.
(March 18, 2023, Research lab,
"necessary," "discussion")
It's here too.
It's at 9 p.m.
Did he work overtime?
Then, at 7 a.m
or at 9 p.m. "Research lab."
"Necessary. Discussion."
Does this mean there was something
he needed to discuss?
Jeong Sang Eui.
What?
I think this is referring
to Jeong Sang Eui.
Jeong Sang Eui was
Lee Myung Guk's direct junior researcher
at Keumhyung Pharmaceutical.
What?
Why are you only telling us that now?
I'm telling you now.
Didn't you know? I knew that already.
Hey, how would I know about
what's going on with Jeong Sang Eui?
Gosh, hang on. So, what's going on?
Then, whether it was at 7 a.m. or 9 p.m.,
he met with Sang Eui in person
at the research lab no matter what.
Is there a meeting that's not necessary
to meet in person?
Hey, could this be
Hang on.
(Pilo-dong in Chinese characters)
I was right.
The character for "pil"
that means necessary
is used in the name, "Pilo-dong."
- Pilo-dong?
- Research lab. Pilo-dong.
Jeong Sang Eui. What's this?
Youngryun Cold Storage.
I checked on the way.
Keumhyung Pharmaceutical owns
Youngryun Cold Storage.
(Certified copy of real estate register)
But there was no office there.
There was nothing there when we went.
The search and seizure warrant
will be issued soon.
We should go and look through the place.
Okay. I'm coming too.
(9 p.m., Research lab,
Pilo-dong, Sang Eui)
Is this it?
Yes.
They left right after that.
Yes, I understand.
Then, I'll be going home now.
Yes, thank you.
Why are they only talking
in the car today?
Go to a motel or something.
I'm starving.
What's that?
Let me take this call.
The cake will melt.
Gosh, you're right.
Yes, what happened?
They didn't go anywhere today
and were only talking in the car.
But CW just left and is on the move.
Alone?
Yes.
Did they perhaps fight?
I wouldn't know.
They only stayed in the car.
But the direction she's headed
is the complete opposite of her house.
Which direction is it?
Oh, hang on.
What is it?
She just went into an apartment complex.
Which apartment?
Park Tae Jin's apartment?
I'm not sure. I can't see very well.
That can't be.
Park Tae Jin is married
and even has a kid.
Is his house empty today?
Gosh.
Those two are getting so bold.
She's at the entrance
of the apartment now.
What about Park Tae Jin?
Is he not there yet?
No. I'm not sure,
but I don't think he's here yet.
- Go in after her.
- But I'll be caught.
Still, you could check
the building and unit number.
Hang on.
Well, it's not the first floor.
How many floors is the whole building?
Three floors.
Hang on.
She's headed to the second floor.
What?
What's the apartment called?
Taekyung Apartment.
Taekyung Apartment,
Building 306, 2nd floor.
Hello.
Yes, hello.
Come in.
(What's going on?)
What's going on?
Hold.
(293D3929)
(293D3929)
(293D3929)
(293D3929)
(Building 306, Unit 202,
Taekyung Apartment)
(Taekyung, 306)
How did you know to come here?
I was wondering how to deliver this,
but then, I heard you had a meeting today.
I'm not sure if it'll help.
Oh, you must've gotten the results
for the Safe Inheritance One-stop Service.
Gosh, you could've told me this
over the phone.
Jun Seo's bank account information,
his insurance policies
His bank account information?
Most of them, I already knew about.
But one of them is weird.
Which one?
Out of the insurance policies below,
there was a pension insurance
that Jun Seo got 11 years ago.
He had it since before our marriage,
but I had no idea about it.
So, I asked the insurance company
and an old lady in her 60s in Boryeong
has been receiving the pension.
Boryeong, South Chungcheong Province?
Yes, neither Jun Seo nor I have
any connections to that place.
So, did you go there?
Not yet.
What about the address?
Have you found that out?
- Yes.
- Then, please tell us the address.
Well,
didn't you say you came
in case you could help?
Let's go together.
All of us.
Us?
Jun Seo's case
is still being investigated by the police.
We haven't gotten the autopsy results
from the NFS yet either.
Anything that might serve as proof
in revealing Jun Seo's cause of death
should be left to the police
to investigate, even if you're curious.
If that's why you came,
you made the right decision.
I told you this before, Joo Song,
but the life insurance money
that my husband left behind
He left it to the two of you
because he needed to use it as bait
for you to reveal the truth
about his wrongful death.
"Bait?"
Did you just say it was bait?
Where are you going?
You heard her.
She told me this before.
Then, I already know this part.
You two can talk amongst yourselves.
So?
If the insurance payout was
five million dollars,
The insurance payment
must have been expensive.
Where do you think that money came from?
He probably paid it with our money.
- So?
- So
That five million dollars
As a matter of fact, it belongs to me.
Hold on.
What kind of nonsense is this?
Yoon Jin.
Hey.
The insurance money belongs
to the recipient.
Who cares who paid for it?
Also, if it's yours, it's yours.
What do you mean it's a matter of fact?
I'm speechless.
He didn't give it
to his closest friends
or his sole family member.
He left the two of you his insurance money
although he hardly contacted you.
You found that strange too.
Isn't this a matter
of being shameless or not?
- "Shameless?"
- Yoon Jin.
Ji Yeon.
Let me talk casually
since I'm a few years older.
I can let everything pass,
but it makes me sick
to hear you say the word "shameless."
What did you say?
How dare you call me shameless?
If you want to keep your promise
of making him the richest man ever,
you must remain a prosecutor
instead of joining this project
and do your job.
The moment you give up your duty,
you mean nothing to me.
Do not get on my nerves,
remain silent,
and remain in your position.
I'm afraid
one day I won't even see you
as a friend of my child.
You're so busy.
Are you sure we can go to Jeju Island?
I already booked the hotel and the flight.
Don't worry, I can make it.
Doesn't your family say anything?
You're always away on weekends.
What?
No.
(Park Jun Seo)
- Yes, Jun Seo. Why
- Are you with Ji Yeon?
At 11:30 p.m.,
show up at the construction site
by the Pilo-dong three-way intersection.
Come around the back alley
where you'll find an open entrance.
A construction site?
Why at this hour?
Tae Jin, I can't go on any longer.
I intend to tell the guys
- what we've been up to.
- Jun Seo.
You said we'd stop
if we reached 500,000 dollars.
But you didn't listen to my request,
and I had no choice
but to let my daughter go.
On top of that, now
Jun Seo.
Not today. Let's talk one-on-one.
- You're too emotional right now.
- You're wrong.
My mind's clearer than ever.
I can see everything clearly.
I'm scared too,
but
if I can turn anything back,
I must do it.
- Jun Seo.
- When you get there,
you'll learn something new
about the other guys too.
See you in a bit.
Park Jun Seo.
Yes?
Hello?
Tae Jin. It's me, Yoon Ho.
What? Where are you?
I'm still in Anhyun.
Why did you call me?
- I'm hanging up.
- I'm calling from a payphone.
Tae Jin,
please help me.
You can't call me like this.
How can I help you?
I don't have anything else to say.
Don't call me again.
Jun Seo's wife.
Did Jun Seo know about it?
That you have
a thing with her?
- What did you say?
- I noticed you met her today too.
I wonder what Jong Soo will say
when he finds out.
He might think you killed Jun Seo
because of it.
- Are you out of your mind?
- Yes.
I'm crazy. So what?
You have to help me!
I know you can.
I can leave the logs here, right?
I'll get going.
Yoon Jin!
Happy birthday
To you
Happy birthday to you
- Happy birthday, dear Yoon Jin
- Happy birthday, dear Yoon Jin
- Happy birthday to you
- Happy birthday to you
- What are you doing?
- I'm sorry.
I didn't know things would turn this way.
But still, it's your birthday.
I can't just skip over it.
Hey, this is dripping.
Just blow them out,
make a wish, and eat the cake.
Please don't be so angry.
Happy?
Is today
your birthday?
Yes.
Ji Yeon! What's the matter?
Are you all right?
Are you okay?
Ji Yeon!
Ji Yeon?
Was it what she ate?
Please choose your four-digit passcode.
(8 years ago)
What should we use?
(Never share your passcode.)
What is that?
It's just the one I've been using
for a long time.
- Really?
- Yes.
Should we use that from now on?
- Sure.
- Okay.
(March 5, Tuesday)
Are you all right?
Gosh.
I'm leaving too.
Already?
I blew out the candles, didn't I?
The cake melted too.
This man has been tailing Park Tae Jin
and Choi Ji Yeon for the last while.
I'm sending pictures to you
because I find him suspicious.
(This man has been tailing Park Tae Jin
and Choi Ji Yeon for the last while.)
(I'm sending pictures to you
because I find him suspicious.)
That's Jeong Yoon Ho.
Jae Gyeong.
This is in front of my house.
Jae Gyeong!
What's going on?
Jeong Yoon Ho!
(Connection)
(You're doing well.)
(Don't take more than two pills
this time either.)
(Connection)
Once this weekend is over,
that money means nothing to me.
- Oh Yoon Jin.
- Whoever opens that box is the owner.
If anyone murdered Jun Seo
and staged it as a suicide,
you're the only one I can think of.
No, Gong Jin Wook!
He's the one behind everything.
Detective, come and arrest them quietly.
Kim Chang Soo!
What are you doing here?
What's wrong with detectives these days?
One's a druggie, and
Shut your mouth!
Both of them died.
Now, you're the only one left
who took the drug.
It looks like the answer is out.
Did you order them to kill both?
- Hey!
- Am I wrong?
I killed Lee Myung Guk,
and I killed Park Jun Seo too.
