What the What's this!
Ji Myeong Seop!
Ji Myeong Seop, you are under emergency arrest for the murder of An Da Yun.
Son Eung Jun!
You are under arrest for the murder of An Da Yun.
♫ No way, I know what you're going to do ♫
♫ Whatever it is, it won't go your way ♫
♫ No matter how you try, you're in the palm of my hands ♫
♫ Like I'm burning everything ♫
♫ You'll have to place everything on the line ♫
With two qualified opinions and one disqualified opinion,
Candidate 655 is given a qualified opinion.
♫ I don't care, will you just come at me? ♫
♫ I'm a megalomaniac ♫
Yes, Sunbae.
Everything went well.
The Chief's parole was approved.
♫ I'm a megalomaniac, you're going to lose so many ♫
Hyung
you passed.
Hyung,
you can leave now!
- You're sure he went in this way?
-Yes.
When is he coming out?
There he comes.
You're Park Jin Cheol, right?
Yes.
You are under arrest for distributing drugs in a prison.
W-What do you mean, distributing drugs? M-Me?
Yes, we've already gathered the evidence
and we can discuss details at the station.
You're Lee Han Sin, right?
Oh, yes.
Hello, I'm Attorney Lee Han Sin.
You'll have to come with us.
Okay, let's go. What is this about?
Lee Han Sin, you are under arrest for violating the Narcotics Control Act.
You have the right to remain silent and the right to an attorney.
[Parole Examiner Lee]
[Episode 11]
Man, I'm craving a drink.
A strong one.
I'm sorry. I came so late. I tried to rush over. I'm sorry!
- Why is your face so puffy?
- Pardon?
There was a bit of a situation. But more importantly,
the Chairman told me to bring you to the prison quickly.
Why is he telling me to come to prison as soon as I leave the detention center?
- I know, right?
- This is so messed up.
Let's go.
Gosh, damn it!
We're here for a tax evasion investigation from the Division 4 of the National Tax Service.
You guys were sent by Ojung Group, right?
It won't be good if you act so stubbornly.
- Let's go.
- Stop them from coming in!
Move, move!
A special tax audit at this timing?
What a joke.
They came with a purpose. They'll find fault with anything they can find.
- Mr. Baek.
- Yes.
Buy as much time as we can,
and tell the guys to move all of our important documents.
Okay.
Gosh, Ji Dong Man is trying to be clever.
It's impressive.
You don't have a single mark on your record,
and a clean past without a single fine or ticket issued.
I guess you managed to weasel out of it through Ojung Group's support.
But that will be difficult this time.
What's your next step?
You think I would have put on a show of arresting you
on live TV without a next step?
Especially against Ojung Group?
Yesterday was just the beginning.
An Da Yun,
Choi Jeong Hak, and maybe even Lim Jeong Gyun
I'm only getting started in my investigation of Ji Myeong Seop's serial killing spree.
Sunbae, did you get anything out of him?
He probably tried to get out of it, saying he doesn't remember or know anything.
It's obvious he won't even say "Ji" of Ji Myeong Seop's name.
Will you be all right?
All it takes to break a levee is a small hole.
Son Eung Jun, who's handled all of Ojung Group's dirty work,
will most likely become that hole.
And so, I have to keep hitting him like today.
Did she hit him?
Attorney Lee!
Wait, why are you here, Attorney Lee
I'll explain everything later.
Don't worry too much.
Detective Pyeon, what are his charges?
I can't tell you because it's Narcotics jurisdiction.
Narcotics? Are you saying it's a drug offense?
I can't tell you that.
Hey, Lieutenant An.
Mind your own business.
- What are you doing? Take him in.
- Yes, sir.
Follow me.
Are you saying Attorney Lee was arrested on drug charges?
Ojung Group laid the same trap as they did three years ago.
I'm suspended?
Are you doing this because I arrested the son of the Ojung Group and their chief secretary?
Do we just sit and watch when we have the evidence?
If you're all that, why did you do such a thing?
What are you talking about-
Choi Hwa Ran of Smile Cash.
She's an infamous loan shark who's essentially a mob boss.
You think I don't know that you've partnered with her?
And what's your relationship with Attorney Lee Han Sin, who was just arrested?
This is a clear violation of police integrity.
Especially since you're currently being sued by Ojung Group for defamation,
you should be grateful that
you're only being suspended.
You got that?
Wow.
I've got a long way to go to catch up to you, Dad.
You brought up the old drug case and took care of Lee Han Sin,
and you took care of his helpers as well.
You're really the best, Dad.
Do you have anything else?
- Sorry?
- I'm asking if you've done anything else
to get you arrested by the police like yesterday!
I don't.
Are you sure you didn't kill Lim Jeong Gyun?
Why would I do anything to Jeong Gyun when you said you'd take care of him, Dad?
Since you dug your own grave and shamed yourself publicly,
resign your position and go overseas immediately.
Dad, I really, really don't want to go overseas!
I can resign, but I really don't want to go!
All because of you, the company's image was totally ruined,
and Director Son is still detained!
You still can't read the situation?
- Dad
- Don't complain and
go live there quietly until I call you back.
If you don't, even if you're my son, I'll-
Dad, Dad! I really don't want to leave!
I just came back!
I'm always alone when I leave!
Do you know how lonely it is?
I don't even have my mom!
I'm your son, Dad!
Please treat me like your son for once!
I don't have a single day when I'm laughing. I'm always crying!
How could you
Mom I don't even have a mom
How could Ji Dong Man's son be so unhappy?
How could you!
Wow, what a tearjerker.
What screwed up father and son!
Gosh, goodness.
Jeong Wook. Why is this guy calling me constantly?
[Director of Correctional Services, Jeong Wook]
- I know.
- Oh, my God!
You scared me!
How could you suddenly appear like that!
I made some noise.
I guess he keeps calling you because he's afraid he'll get arrested.
Arrested for what?
The Chairman Ji heard how Cheon Su Beom passed his parole review
because Director Jeong gave him a qualified opinion.
As soon as he heard that, he started making calls to the police station.
You know there are so many reasons to put away Director Jeong.
By this time, he's probably been arrested.
Will I get caught, too?
"Will I get caught, too?" Doing what?
Did you do something wrong?
No, no, that's not it.
Your eyes are shaking.
Where are you going? Where are you going?
- I'm heading inside.
- No, no.
- Why?
- It's a mess in there right now!
They're crying and don't go. Don't go in there right now.
- Why are they crying and all?
- Don't go in there.
[Mongddang Mongddang Real Estate]
Please don't let me lose out on the deal, if possible.
Have a good day.
Honey, it's me.
I put up the Sammyeong-dong building for urgent sale.
You take care of the property in Ilcheon.
No!
I'm telling you, we need to liquidate everything we can into cash!
Who are you guys?
Let's go.
No!
Lee Han Sin, you've been arrested for violating the Narcotics Control Act
You've been arrested for violating the Narcotics Control Act and abuse of authority
and abuse of authority in connection with the
2022 Sangbu Prison drug smuggling case.
- You know that, right?
- Yes.
In addition to Cheon Su Beom, who is already serving time for it,
we've gathered evidence that you and Park Jin Cheol were also involved in this case.
Since the statute of limitations hasn't expired yet,
the warrants for your arrest were issued.
You understand that, right?
Yes.
Hey, Lieutenant An.
Why are you still here when you've been suspended?
Get out.
We're back!
- Great work.
- Yes, sir.
Sit down.
Hurry up and leave.
Name?
You're Park Jin Cheol, right?
Aren't these all illegal documents, President Choi?
Shut up! They're all legal!
They're all legal! Legal!
Gosh, the more I think about it, how despicable they are.
They're the ones who committed crimes.
Why are they taking it out on us for pointing it out!
- Is this everything, Mr. Baek?
- Yes.
- Great work.
- Okay.
Oh wait President Choi?
I said, it's legal.
- Look
- Attorney Lee, who was also working as a parole examiner,
has been arrested for violating the Narcotics Control Act.
According to investigating authorities, Mr. Lee was involved
in the 2022 Sangbu Prison drug smuggling case.
After pinning all the blame on Correction Officer Cheon,
his coworker at the prison at the time,
then, he became an attorney and also worked as a paroled examiner.
There is growing public opinion that Mr. Lee should be fired as a parole examiner
- but also lose his attorney license.
- What a witch hunt. Absurd.
- Ojung Group is determined to bury him.
- Beyond breaking the law,
many people are shocked by this breach of trust
in the justice system.
Corrupt and drug dealing correction officers, be gone!
Be gone, be gone!
Severely punish the fraud attorney who deceived the people!
Punish him severely, punish him severely!
Corrupt and drug dealing correction officers, be gone!
Be gone, be gone!
Severely punish the fraud attorney who deceived the people!
Punish him severely, punish him severely!
Punish him severely, punish him severely!
Punish him severely, punish him severely!
Punish him severely, punish him severely!
Punish him severely, punish him severely!
- Mr. Baek.
- Yes?
Those guys are doing that and getting paid by Ojung Group, right?
The organization leading the protest is famous for staging protests for money.
Lieutenant An,
Ojung Group is responsible for Attorney Lee's arrest, right?
Yes. They dug up the evidence they had fabricated
three years ago to frame Chief Cheon
and unleashed it all at once in a media offensive.
Is Attorney Lee allowed to have visitors?
No. I believe he'll be stuck in the interrogation room all day today.
Punish him severely, punish him severely!
Punish him severely, punish him severely! Punish him severely!
[Attorney Seo Dong Hoon]
[Attorney Seo Dong Hoon]
Geez, I've got a lot on my mind! Why do you keep calling me!
Video?
He told me to find out everywhere you went after you came back.
Also, he said to check your phone for any audio recordings-
Oh, hello. Good to see you.
and told me to get the videos.
I've looked for video evidence of cheating
while handling divorce cases,
but I've never
I changed my phone recently, so there's nothing on it.
If you don't believe me, come and get it!
Gosh, so annoying.
This asshole says what he wants and hangs up when I'm not done!
This crazy bastard! He's just like his dad!
I've looked for video evidence of cheating while handling divorce cases,
but I've never
Hey, stop being a nuisance
and drink your alcohol without causing trouble.
If you keep this up, things could
all go downhill in an instant, like in the past.
You crazy bastard! How could you kill someone?
It's not a big deal.
I was just a bit unlucky.
It's not a big deal?
Director Son is going through hell trying to clean up your mess!
So, he just needs to clean it up properly!
You still haven't come to your senses yet?
Damn it!
Geez, this bastard!
The day I took this video
was the day Myeong Seop committed murder.
Myeong Seop is wearing the same clothes!
Why are you here!
Open the door.
Hey, go away!
Open the door!
Should I cause a fuss here?
Open the door.
Go away!
I said, open the door!
What do you have to say? Say it from there and leave.
Hey!
Hey!
Why would you go in there?
Wow, it's fancy here.
- Hey!
- Is this your reward for putting up with an old man for a year?
Alimony investment?
Hey!
I didn't receive a single penny of alimony.
Really? You must feel wronged, then.
I told you we should get revenge together!
Why should I trust you?
You don't have to trust me.
Just hand over the video.
Video?
What video?
The videos you took every time Dad beat you. To use against him for divorce.
Oh, I see
Is that the reason why you kept coming over?
You took a video that day, too, right?
Give me the video.
I really don't know what you're talking about.
I really don't have it!
I mean it.
- I don't have it.
- What? No, no, no.
- I'll check for myself.
- I don't have it!
- I'll check for myself.
- Who says you can check?
You said you don't have it.
- Fine, check for yourself.
- Exactly.
"Don't ever erase this file."
I'll just check this file titled "Don't ever erase this file."
Leo, what are you doing?
Gosh, Leo, you just peed! Great job!
Aigoo, aigoo, aigoo. Good job!
Where's the video?
I really don't have it!
Where is the video!
I don't have it! I really don't have it!
Where is the video!
Yeah, I recorded those videos to get a divorce.
I erased them all after I got my divorce.
You mean that?
It makes me so mad just thinking about it.
Why would I keep stuff like that?
You better have erased it.
You know I kill people, right?
Hey, get out of here now.
Get out!
Choi Won Mi whoa
Your acting is awesome.
I really thought I was getting caught.
Wow, if I acted like this, I would have gone to the Academy Awards. Right?
I'm so scared
Leo Your mom thought she was going to die.
I'm sick of pork.
Aren't you going to eat?
I ate already.
Sunbae, come out now.
Thank you.
Attorney Lee.
Yes, Lieutenant.
Do you need anything?
I don't.
Oh, how's Jin Cheol?
Park Jin Cheol, you admit to all the charges now, right?
Keeping silent won't resolve this situation, you know.
How's the situation outside?
It seemed like there was something on the news earlier.
They are launching a massive media campaign to divert public attention away
from Ji Myeong Seop's murder case.
They are vilifying you with provocative keywords
such as "drug dealing correction officer" and "fraud attorney."
In a few days, both of you will be moved to a detention center.
We have President Choi, and Chief Cheon should be released soon.
So we'll look for a way.
Don't overdo it.
Chairman Ji may try to harm you.
I'm always alone overseas!
Do you know how lonely it is?
I don't even have my mom!
I'm your son, Dad!
Please treat me like your son for once!
How could Ji Dong Man's son be so unhappy?
- Goodbye.
- Bye now.
Please go in.
Myeong Seop, stand tall.
You didn't do anything wrong.
They were overreacting over a little fistfight between boys.
- Dad.
- Yeah?
What if I go to prison?
Prison is where people with no money or power go.
I'll give you everything for your future, Myeong Seop.
Don't worry about anything and do whatever you want. It's okay.
Dad!
Yeah, yeah.
Let's go. I'll buy you your favorite tonkatsu, Myeong Seop.
Let's go. Get inside.
Cheon Su Beom.
You're doing this because you're angry about Cheon Su Beom.
It's all in the past.
Nothing is more foolish than ruing your life over the past-
So you know very well.
That's why I'll see it
to the end.
[Official business only]
[Rule of law of trust, Correction of trust]
Father.
Chief Cheon Su Beom.
I came at the request of Attorney Lee Han Sin.
I'm Lieutenant An Seo Yun.
Drug dealer!
[Fraud Attorney Lee Han Sin]
I guess people came by.
Mr. Hwang.
Oh, you're here, Lieutenant An.
Chief Cheon Su Beom, you've gone through a lot.
I definitely cleaned up everything before I went home last night,
but I guess people came by early this morning
Gosh, you should look where you're going.
Both your eyes and legs are loose.
Did you take drugs?
Hey, I heard you're a drug-dealing correction officer.
Do you have any drugs on you?
Give me some.
- Give me some.
- Share some with us.
- I said, give me some!
- Give me.
Article 6 of the Correction Officer's Duty Regulations!
Restraining acts that undermine the purpose of detention
such as the escape of detainees, disturbances, and assaults
must take precedence over all other duties!
You guys are currently neglecting your duties.
Honestly, we're also human, so we do have negative feelings toward you.
That's why we turned a blind eye.
You brought shame to your juniors with this incident.
I can't even tell anyone I'm a correction officer anymore.
Correction Officer Kim Hyung Sik,
you shouldn't have prejudices
against detainees waiting for trial, at least.
Also, don't be swayed by your emotions.
A correction officer who's swayed by emotions
needs to quit his job.
I'm sorry you're here because of me.
No.
I'm paying for my crime like this.
You know I can't be free from incidents relevant to Ojung Group.
Also, considering Hae Seong's surgery from way back then.
Chief Cheon is probably out by now, right?
Yes, Lieutenant An said she was going to pick him up.
Because of the Ojung Group bastards,
I worry about him even when he's released.
It's the other way around.
Ojung Group is the one who should worry about Chief Cheon's release.
I will proactively seek a retrial.
The reason Chairman Ji Dong Man kept me isolated in prison
was to prevent a retrial.
Oh, that's why Attorney Lee rushed to apply for a retrial.
If Chief Cheon seeks a retrial while the statute of limitations is still valid,
there is a higher chance of re-investigation in the Sangbu Prison drug case.
That would shake up the Ojung Group greatly
and increase the likelihood of Attorney Lee and Chief Park's release.
But isn't public opinion a major factor in a retrial?
But we're up against a bad public opinion right now.
So, we have to fight fire with fire.
With a large flame that's extremely hot and bright.
If I step into the forefront of the media battle,
it would be the most uncomfortable scenario for Ojung Group.
Of course, they'll try their best to stop me.
Then how about we get rid of them quickly?
Let's make a plan while Ji Dong Man is still in prison,
and quickly flip the public opinion to our side, no?
But
they were both released today.
Both Ji Dong Man and Son Eung Jun.
Two of them both.
What?
Pardon?
Director Son!
Aigoo, your face has gotten so gaunt in just a few days.
Did you suffer a lot while you were detained? What?
Why don't you respond when I'm talking to you?
Aigoo, do you know how much trouble my legal team and I went through
because your face was caught clearly
in that video that was played at the press conference, Director Son?
We barely got you released by posting bail and having a surety.
You have to lay low for the time being
because you're under non-custodial investigation status.
You have to be careful.
If I say something to you, you should respond.
How's the Chairman?
The Chairman has already been released
early this morning while it was still dark.
Everything was taken care of right away when he contacted the higher-ups.
Maybe it's because it's the election season.
South Korea is a good place to live as long as you have money.
No, it's a good place to live for only those with money.
The presidential office revealed that there was a special pardon.
The working class and small business owners are candidates for this special pardon.
Several financial offenders, including Ojung Group Chairman Ji Dong Man
four businessmen, including Chairman Ji Dong Man
Government officials said that this pardon was
granted to promote societal integration and harmony.
They emphasized the hopes that they will
contribute to an economic revival after their release.
I guess you moved the higher-ups in power
because you couldn't get out by parole.
But I had no idea you would leave by special pardon.
Attorney Lee.
Do you know what's all the way up on top?
Above the law, above people, there's money.
It's an unchanging fact that you can do anything you want,
as long as you have money.
So, you're staging a witch hunt after buying
the media with your money?
If it was up to me,
I would hang you in the middle of Gwanghwamun and set you on fire.
Attorney Lee, did you know that Lieutenant An was suspended?
It seems that you didn't know that loan shark Choi Hwa Ran
was hit with a tax investigation and closed her business.
I hear that these pathetic losers are
gathering in your office, including Cheon Su Beom, who was released.
Now that I'm out of prison,
you will never be able to leave prison.
Cheon Su Beom won't succeed in his retrial, either.
I hope you realize
how insignificant you are while you are rotting in prison.
Who knows?
Maybe I'll have you released on parole
for old-time's sake.
Seeing you act like this, I think getting arrested was a good thing.
The future events won't go as you want them to.
Absolutely not.
[Evil deeds will always return to the offenders]
To tell you the truth,
Han Sin already expected all this.
Chairman Ji Dong Man may end up leaving prison through a special pardon.
Ji Dong Man will leave through a special pardon?
Yes. Since I keep stopping his parole release,
he'll try to move the higher-ups than the Correctional Services.
But I don't know if that's possible
We live in a world where anything's possible with money and power.
Also, Chairman Ji Dong Man will try to immobilize me by having me arrested.
What do you mean have you arrested? For what crime?
If he wanted to, he could probably find something to charge me with.
But if that's the case, I hope I end up getting framed for the same thing as you, Chief.
So, Ji Dong Man traps himself.
Now, we must make Ji Dong Man pay for the disaster he's brought upon himself.
To do so, you would have to stand before the public, Chief Cheon.
Are you okay with that?
I'm fine.
It's my turn to speak up for Han Sin and Jin Cheol.
Still, Chief, you have your family. Will you be okay?
They'll probably understand my convictions.
Then, can we finally fight back against Ojung Group?
Us, eggs, can finally get together and throw ourselves
(Referring to a Korean adage)
against the rock to smash it, right?
Yes, let's give it a go!
Gosh, it's been a while since I felt such a rush.
Yes, Chief. I'm Choi Hwa Ran.
You don't need to worry about your family.
I'll place men on them to protect them.
Yes, I have faith in you.
Yes. Fighting!
Fighting, fighting!
Oh, Chief, you're handsome.
Let's go inside.
Yes?
Why did you suddenly hit me?
What were you doing while Myeong Seop was up to no good
like the press conference?
The Executive Director was so determined to do it, so-
Aigoo, you lazy bastard!
I'm sorry. I-I'm sorry.
Is Director Son not out yet?
No, we got him out,
but he's under non-custodial investigation status.
I told him to avoid coming to the company for the time being.
How's the reaction to the news slandering Lee Han Sin and the protests attacking him?
The public is reacting very passionately.
But Chairman.
- What?
- It's just that
if you keep digging into Lee Han Sin like this,
won't that case we barely managed to bury keep resurfacing
and negatively impact the Executive Director?
The media, the prosecutors, the police,
and all of South Korea is under the influence of money from Ji Dong Man. Why worry?
- You're right.
- Can't you tell by how I got out?
- Yes
- I can keep all that under control
so just shut up and do your job.
Okay. Got it.
By the way, where is Myeong Seop right now?
Gosh, who is it!
Dad, why did you do that!
Seeing how wasted you are, you still haven't come to your senses.
Should I just send you to prison?
You wouldn't even let me go outside. What do you want from me?
Wake up.
The reason you're safe, even after killing someone,
is all thanks to the power I've amassed.
I told you before
that prison is where powerless people go.
I'm saying you're a worthless bastard without me.
So,
lay low and obey me while I give you the chance.
You got that?
Please sign the petition for a retrial.
Please help us clear a wrongly accused correction officer's name!
Help us!
Please sign the petition for a retrial.
- The true culprit is in the Ojung Group!
- He's in Ojung Group!
Do you remember the prison drug case
involving Lee Han Sin, who was blasted by the media
as a drug dealing correction officer and fraud attorney?
I will announce the truth and the true culprit behind that case today.
Please help us clear a wrongly accused correction officer's name!
Suddenly, there are more people here.
Yeah, I'm surprised, too.
But supposedly, he's a star reporter with a fandom.
Reporter Woo? I think it's thanks to him.
Oh, he's handsome.
But it would be easier to gather people if he aired this
on TV news on major broadcasting channels instead of his YouTube channel.
I know.
But nearly all the media companies were paid off by the Ojung Group
and I hear that Reporter Woo's company also blocked it when he mentioned Ojung Group.
I knew it.
Still, this grassroots approach to spreading info like wildfire
is an effective method as well.
Hey, what's that? Is that a refill of the petitions?
Pardon? Oh, yes.
Give it to me. I'll give it to them.
Will you be okay?
I'm Choi Hwa Ran! Come on!
- Pass it to me.
- I don't think you'll be okay
Hurry up and pass it to me.
Mr. Baek. Take this.
Eun Ji, your throat's getting dry, right? Have some candy.
Bear and rabbit couple!
Stop flirting and focus on the petitions! Okay?
Mr. Baek, smile. You're going to scare people away.
- Reporter Woo?
- Yes?
Hello. I'm Choi Hwa Ran.
Oh, thank you.
Everyone! Please sign the petition for a re-investigation
of the Sangbu Prison drug case!
Please come and sign it!
Do you remember the prison drug case involving Lee Han Sin, who was blasted
by the media as a drug dealing correction officer and fraud attorney?
Someone to expose the truth and true culprit of that case
has requested an interview.
- Hello.
- The ex-correction officer at Sangbu Prison
I'm Cheon Su Beom, who was wrongly accused of
smuggling drugs into Sangbu Prison.
Ojung Group used their money and power
to fabricate all the circumstances of the case
- and framed an innocent man as a criminal.
- Correction Officer Cheon Su Beom declared his innocence
and revealed Ojung Group was behind the crime.
The one who actually did drugs in the prison at the time
was the heir to Ojung Group, Ji Myeong Seop!
Why do you think Ojung Group decided to frame you?
- Did they have a personal grudge against you?
- Will this do anything?
It's because I stopped Ji Myeong Seop's parole release.
Ojung-
Let's get drunk!
- She's here!
- Oh, what's this?
- Yeah!
- I wanted to talk to you.
How could be drunk already?
I'm not drunk. I'm perfectly fine.
- You're absolutely drunk. As if.
- I'm not, I'm not.
It's because you didn't have any food.
I don't deserve to eat it. Supposedly, I'm a lazy bastard.
- Who said that?
- Who do you think?
- Chairman Ji?
- Yes! That's right!
They say old habits die hard. I see he still speaks rudely.
Hey, he's worse than a dog, so just ignore him.
What the Gosh, seriously.
So, what did you want to talk about that you asked to meet?
I asked to meet because
You can tell me openly.
- Will my Attorney Lee
- "My Attorney Lee"?
be able to come out of prison?
- He will.
- But Ji Dong Man will try to stop it.
Yeah, he will try to stop it.
Have you seen the movie, "Titanic"?
I did.
You saw it? Then let me tell you this.
From what I can see, Ojung Group is so similar to the sinking Titanic.
There are so many holes in the ship
that water is pouring in from the outside.
From what I can tell, it's very close to sinking.
As soon as another hole appears,
then it's just going to sink.
- Just one more hole, I see.
- Yeah.
As it sinks
- You need to come.
- I'm sorry
You're not coming? You need to come to me.
Come.
- Just go over there.
- Come.
- Go away.
- Just give me a hug!
We report him, we report him!
Corrupt Chairman Ji Dong Man!
We report Ji Dong Man!
We report him, we report him!
We demand the truth regarding the drug case, Ojung Group!
We demand it, we demand it!
We demand a re-investigation of the Sangbu Prison drug case!
We demand it, we demand it!
Corrupt Chairman Ji Dong Man! We report Ji Dong Man!
Chairman.
Why is it so noisy outside?
Do a better job of media control!
I'm sorry. I blocked all the mainstream media outlets,
but I wasn't able to stop this well after it started flaring up
from social media and internet news sites. I'm sorry.
What happened to Warden Bae and Jeong Wook, who are helping Cheon Su Beom's retrial?
Well, I can't get in contact with Warden Bae all of a sudden.
What?
Maybe he decided to betray you and side with Lee Han Sin.
He suddenly resigned right after your release
and went into hiding somewhere.
He even canceled his phone
and sent his family on a long-term trip abroad.
It appears he's determined to stay hidden.
When is that guy coming?
What's there for us to talk about?
Warden Bae, that ungrateful bastard.
Then, what about Director Jeong?
Did you call for me?
You'll keep your promise of cutting off contact with Ojung Group
and helping Cheon Su Beom's retrial, right?
Yes, of course.
Of course, you will.
If you want your money back, you have no other choice.
Then, fill this sheet out with sincerity.
Okay.
With sincerity.
Okay.
With sincerity.
These bastards dare betray me together?
It's a bit early to say for sure that they betrayed you.
I've got a bad feeling about this.
- Call the Captain of the Metropolitan Investigation Unit.
- Okay.
If Lee Han Sin's investigation goes wrong, we'll be in big trouble.
- What's this about?
- We received a report.
We're from the inspection department.
Please cooperate with the inspection of your vehicle.
I don't know who reported that you're doing this.
Why are you doing this?
I said, there's nothing in my car!
I found it.
This watch was a birthday gift-
It's a watch that would be perfect as a bribe.
[3 hours ago]
Sunbae, I caught him red-handed.
Accepting bribes and leaking info on investigations
Isn't that what would really violate police integrity?
Hey, An Seo Yun! Do you have evidence?
Can you tell us where you got that watch from?
Can you guarantee that there's no traces of Ojung Group
in your call history or your bank account details, Captain?
We'll find out everything once we investigate.
Let's go inside and talk.
Hey, take him in.
Wait, wait! An Seo Yun!
Are you taking revenge on me for getting you suspended?
Hey, you bastard!
Gosh, it feels like a weight has been lifted from me.
When they investigate the Captain, they'll find out the disciplinary action was unjust.
I think your suspension will be lifted soon, Sunbae.
It finally feels refreshing.
These are the documents that will prove that defendants Lee Han Sin and Park Jin Cheol
are innocent regarding the 2022 Sangbu Prison drug smuggling case.
The prosecutor in charge of the case
submitted a handwritten confession, stating accepting bribes and case manipulation.
We've already filed a motion for cancellation of detention with the court.
I'm sorry, but doing this won't work.
Hello. Oh, hello!
Oh, you're here!
Hello! Lee Han Sin, Lee Han Sin.
So, I am Jungbu Prison's warden,
no, ex-warden, Bae Han Seong.
You wouldn't even know if someone kidnapped you!
How could you get so scared? It's not like I'm a ghost.
Gosh, you scared me.
Gosh, what's there to talk about that you'd come like this?
How did you betray the Chairman when you're such a scaredy-cat?
You can't sleep at night, right?
Did Ji Dong Man say something?
You traitor.
Since you're betraying him anyway,
how about you betray him properly?
- Properly?
- Yeah.
How about you make a huge hole,
so it completely sinks?
So, Warden Bae was the actual accomplice to that drug case-
No, I wasn't! What do you mean, accomplice!
That's not it.
I was tricked by the Ojung Group
into their trap. I'm a victim!
Oh, never mind. In any case,
I will testify to everything that took place
and receive the punishment I deserve for my crimes.
Hey, everyone! Breaking news!
The Captain was taken into the Inspection Office.
What?
He supposedly leaked investigation info to the Ojung Group in exchange for bribes!
It's so embarrassing! How could he as a police officer?
It's Ojung Group, it's Ojung Group, right?
I told you, it's Ojung Group!
Oh, no, what do we do?
Lieutenant An Seo Yun must be so upset!
Aigoo, "All of South Korea is under the money influence of Ji Dong Man. Why worry?"
Give me a break.
That sleazy Captain of the Metropolitan Investigation Unit was taken in, too.
It feels like it's sinking slowly.
Titanic, you bastards!
Hello.
Slowly sinking,
slowly sinking.
- Chairman.
- I put Lee Han Sin in prison as planned,
but the situation seems inauspicious.
I'll head straight to the company-
No, you don't need to do that.
You heard what Attorney Seo said, right?
You need to lay low because you're under non-custodial investigation status.
It's best for you and Myeong Seop not to come near the company for the time being.
Okay, Chairman.
Detainee 3321, you have a visitor.
This is unexpected.
The place and time, and the visitor.
What brings you here?
Why did you pick a fight with Ojung Group with barely passable evidence
that Ojung Group's legal team can easily flick away.
I was curious.
Are you confident you'll win?
I'm not fighting because I was confident in winning.
I'm fighting because I must bring Ojung Group down.
Attorney Lee,
do you think Cheon Su Beom is worth
putting your own life on the line?
What about you, Director?
Is Ojung Group worth that much?
Enough for you to take all the blame for its crimes?
[Sangbu Detention Center]
Han Sin!
- You've gone through a lot.
- Chief.
- Congratulations.
- Congratulations.
- Oh, thank you.
- Thank you.
You all must be busy. Why'd you come out all this way?
What are you saying? Of course, we should come.
But I think it's too early to let our guard down.
Though you were released on a cancellation of detention decision,
the investigation isn't over yet.
Still, once Chief Cheon wins the retrial,
the case will close with them being declared innocent.
Right now, the public opinion is favorable, right?
Yes, that's right.
There's even an open chatroom with the name Ogyopa,
short for "Let's Expose the Correctional Services Corruption of Ojung Group."
Attorney Lee.
- Attorney!
- Attorney Lee Han Sin!
Let me ask you a question.
Is it true that you're innocent regarding the Sangbu Prison drug smuggling case?
Is it true that Ojung Group manipulated the case at the time?
- Please give us a statement.
- Please!
Attorney Lee Han Sin,
while you were a parole examiner,
you stopped Chairman Ji Dong Man's parole twice.
Do you think this was an act of retribution for that?
Please give us a statement. Please give us a response.
Just one statement. Please look this way as well.
Yes. I was unjustly detained despite not committing any crimes.
Meanwhile, Chairman Ji Dong Man, who even committed jailbreak during his sentence,
was released on a special pardon.
However, it won't be long now.
The truth that Ojung Group covered up and buried with their money and power
That truth will soon be exposed
for all to see.
He's become a celebrity.
♫ You're a megalomaniac ♫
♫ You're gonna lose so many ♫
♫ Even if you cover their eyes and try to hide it ♫
♫ I'll show them all ♫
♫ You're a megalomaniac ♫
♫ You don't deserve what you want now ♫
♫ You can push me away and try to hold me off ♫
♫ It won't work on me, megalomaniac ♫
♫ I'll give up anything, all I want is just one thing ♫
♫ Come on, bring it on until the end ♫
[Parole Examiner Lee]
The public opinion has completely shifted.
Will you go to prison instead, Director Son?
I have something deadly and dangerous.
I'm going to lure Ji Dong Man.
No matter how much I think about it, this is too dangerous.
Hurry up and back us up!
I can't leave him alone anymore. I'll need to see to his end.
So, how do you feel?
Are you threatening me?
Eung Jun, I'm asking you like this.
I'll take care of him and go to prison, Chairman.
I plan to go today for a final showdown.
Aren't you curious how things will end?
