Jong…

Jong-hyeon.

Jong-hyeon!

-Run! -Kim Jong-hyeon!

Kim Jong-hyeon!

Oh, dear.

Things are about to get messy.

MAYOR OF INSUNG

Kim Jong-hyeon.

Kim Jong-hyeon, wake up.

Jong-hyeon.

You can't come in.

Doctor…

INSUNG CITY COUNCIL SAFE AND CLEAN INSUNG!

INSUNG CITY HALL

The person you are calling cannot be reached.

You will be directed to voice…

It's me.

Send over the thing I prepared

with a few of your men.

Our district caught a break thanks to the quick approval

of the development project.

Cheers to that.

-It's good that we can count on you. -Cheers.

Here you are, Mayor Roh.

What kind of civil servant doesn't answer calls?

Well…

It's not that I didn't answer on purpose.

Something urgent came up.

I heard about your situation--

If my civil complaint has reached you, shouldn't you process it?

I'm short on time, you see.

As much as I want to help--

What is it?

Haven't you been paid enough already?

How much more do you want? Tell me.

No, it's not that.

I'm telling you, my hands are tied.

Oh, jeez.

There seems to be a misunderstanding.

This isn't about money.

What's this? Come on!

What's this all about? I swear it's not about the money!

Open wide.

Open wide.

Isn't it a civil servant's duty

to aid a petitioner?

Especially when the said petitioner always goes out of his way to make sure

you get everything in return?

Do you still need more?

No!

Then take care of it, okay?

-Okay? -Okay.

Good.

KOREA COAST GUARD

INSUNG CUSTOMS

I'm Sergeant Lee Ji-seok of the Insung Coast Guard.

-Please stop what you're doing. -The Coast Guard?

-We're from the Korea Customs Service. -This is our jurisdiction.

The Korea Customs Service?

So what's going on right now?

The Coast Guard and Korea Customs Service are fighting over jurisdiction.

I can't do anything.

That's not right. What about the commissioner?

He's not answering.

Damn it, they're here too?

-Who? -The prosecution.

Yes, sir.

Understood, sir.

-Everyone, stop! -What the heck?

Stop right now!

Damn, this is so annoying.

I'm Prosecutor Kim Seok-hyeon.

Jong-hyeon might die any minute,

but his older brother is busy kissing ass.

Captain!

Sergeant Kim has been moved to the ICU.

RESTRICTED AREA AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ONLY

Fortunately, the bullet missed his heart, so they say he's going to live.

Has he come to?

He just got out of surgery, so we'll have to wait.

I'll go talk to the doctor.

Thank goodness Dung-ju learned how to swim.

He saved Sergeant Kim.

Good work, Senior Officer Ji.

Where's Dong-ju anyway?

KIM JONG-HYEON, RUPTURED LIGAMENT

Wait, 2018?

Is this from back then?

Where are you going?

You said you wanted to try boxing.

Sorry, but I have to go somewhere.

When will you be back?

It won't take long.

Want me to go with you?

Go ahead to the gym.

Okay.

GYM RESERVATION JULY 26TH, YOON DONG-JU, 6:30 P.M.

Where did you go without a word?

What's that?

He'll be here for a while, so I brought a few things he'll need.

How is he?

It's too early to tell.

I'm not sure he can return to work even if he wakes up.

What do you mean?

Something's wrong with Sergeant Kim's ankle.

It wasn't good even when he was competing,

but the fracture is serious this time.

What are you waiting for? Senior Officer Ji is alone.

I'm going to the agency.

Hey!

Yes?

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

I guess that's a relief.

Sir?

Are you awake?

Just a moment. I'll call the doctor.

Okay.

Jong-hyeon, are you okay?

I'm so glad you're awake.

Here.

What did the commissioner say?

I shouldn't have put together this team.

Who was I kidding?

This all happened

because of my greed.

I'm sorry, Senior Officer Shin.

I'm ashamed to face you.

You're really irresponsible.

Mr. Yoon Dong-ju.

Don't underestimate your condition.

If your blood pressure spikes from reckless behavior,

it can cause a cerebral hemorrhage

as well as blindness due to optic nerve damage.

This hearing is to address accountability for the officer casualty accident

that occurred during SCIT's overzealous investigation.

As the incident occurred

while carrying out a duty…

That's it.

Hey, that's a foul!

Was that a right hook from the opponent?

I think he got hit with an elbow.

It looks like Yoon Dong-ju

has a cut above his eye.

Everything

is a mess.

Damn it.

Nothing is going my way.

SPECIAL CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION TEAM

3 MONTHS LATER

I'm glad to see you're doing better.

You'll be discharged in no time.

Yes, sir.

Did you hear the SCIT got dissolved?

Let me know if you have a department in mind.

The commissioner will accommodate your request.

What about the team members?

They returned to work not long ago after receiving suspensions and pay cuts.

This is an abduction, I tell you.

-I'm sorry. -Let go of me.

-Come on, babe. -I'm sorry.

-You can't do this, ma'am. -Come on!

Hey.

Did you just touch me?

No, I didn't touch you. You fell.

-I'm a cop-- -You touched me!

Pull over! I want to get out!

-Let me out right now! Hey! -Please be quiet.

-Damn it, let me out! -I said be quiet!

Who the hell are you?

TRAFFIC POLICE

-Please stop. -Let me out!

Why won't you stop the car?

Stop the car right now!

-Please save me! -Just pull over!

-I said pull over! -Save me!

SCHOOL ZONE

Save me! Please!

INTRODUCING NEW BODY CAMERAS TO SAFEGUARD INSUNG CITIZENS

This is the only place we can assign you for now.

You see, the others feel a teensy bit uncomfortable around you.

Feel free to tell me if you don't like it here.

I'll look into another place for you.

RECORDS ROOM RESTRICTED AREA

It's not too bad.

I like being alone anyway.

What about Officer Yoon?

Do you mean Yoon Dong-ju?

He got himself a sweet assignment, courtesy of the commissioner.

He's a special support officer.

Hurry it up. We need to mobilize tonight.

I'm on it.

Why don't you help me then?

ROOM 4, JEONG MI-JA INSUNG NANUM NURSING HOME

Ma'am, it's me.

Let me freshen you up.

This is nice and warm.

I didn't know this before,

but Insung has a lot of great places to eat.

There's a famous knife-cut noodle place in Gumyeon-dong.

In Baekdang-dong, there's a good oyster and rice soup place.

Right, and this place in Jinhang-dong

has mind-blowing nakgopsae.

Do you know what that is?

I think you'd really like that place.

We'll go for a walk to admire flowers…

and enjoy the fall foliage.

I hope we'll get to visit many different places together.

You're suspected of drug use,

so I need you to provide a urine sample right away.

Mister, can you hold it steady down there?

My hands feel weak.

What kind of nonsense is that? You're not a kid.

Here, take this and aim well.

Go ahead. You can manage.

Hurry up. We need to send it to the Narcotics Unit.

Do it yourself then.

Seriously.

-Excuse me. -Okay, that's nice.

Get ready.

Hey!

Stop showering, or your skin will peel off.

How many times have you showered?

That damn junkie.

I can still smell the stench.

What's that?

Is this mukeunji, aged kimchi?

Braised chicken and mukeunji go well together.

-This is delicious. -It's good, right?

Dad, can we get a dog?

What's this crazy talk in the middle of the night?

We already have an annoying mutt.

Hey, mutt! Come and eat. I bet you're hungry.

I already asked him to eat.

Come on. Let's get a dog.

Who will clean up after it?

I will.

As if. Clean up your room first. It looks like a pigsty!

What are you doing?

Hey, stop making a mess when you eat.

Did you talk to your mom? What about school?

And why isn't your mom coming back?

The wind slammed the door!

Where are you going? I know you're hungry. Come and eat!

This mutt is going out for a walk.

Where were you assigned today?

Event support for the mayor.

What about tomorrow?

Cracking down on illegal objects on the road.

And I'll be doing community service at the bank the next day.

They call it special support duty, but they treat you like a day laborer.

They send you wherever and make you go through hell.

A suspension and pay cut are enough. What kind of crap is this?

I know, right?

There's an opening at a security company, so go work there.

My friend runs the place.

You'll get paid better there.

Ms. Jeong's nursing home bills must be steep.

Why are you staring at me?

Because I'm thankful.

Where's this coming from?

Why do you care so much for me?

It makes me feel bad.

Who says I care for you?

I just don't want to hear you whine like a little mutt.

I don't know why I bothered with you.

My nose still aches every time the seasons change because of you.

I should've just ignored you back then.

I don't know why I felt sorry for you.

-Hey, are you sick? -Come here.

Hold on a second.

You little…

Give it back to me before things get worse.

You're letting a sick bastard beat you up?

-Damn it. -Give it back.

Hey!

Word has spread about him being the best fighter in Insung.

So kids pick fights with him every day.

But I hear he's a good kid.

What good kid uses his fists?

My son is an only child and never causes mischief.

I'm telling you, he's the one who hit my kid.

Where's his guardian?

He doesn't have a father, and his mother isn't answering.

I left a contact number though.

THE LATE CHOI SEONG-HUI SON: YOON DONG-JU

Mom…

Well, this is a surprise.

I guess you didn't fight back today.

You're here way too often.

Let's see here.

Take them.

If you want to keep fighting, put those to good use.

Don't get into fights on the streets.

What are you staring at?

The CAS has announced its decision regarding boxer Yoon Dong-ju,

who faced losing his gold medal due to doping allegations.

After a protracted two-year legal battle,

the CAS confirmed there was no evidence of banned substance use by Yoon Dong-ju

and declared his suspension from competition invalid.

Let's move on to soccer news.

2020 CAREER COMPETITIVE RECRUITMENT MARTIAL ARTS ATHLETES (OFFICER)

COMPETITIONS ELIGIBLE FOR EVALUATION: AQUATIC SPORTS, COMBAT SPORTS…

Thank you for always helping me…

when things were tough.

You'd actually listen to me if you meant that.

Stop staring at me like that. I know I'm handsome.

I'll arrange a meeting with my friend for you soon, so be ready.

I can handle it on my own.

Nice and slow.

One.

Two. Take it slowly.

One.

Don't overdo it. It's your first day of physical rehab.

This is harder than I thought.

Should we stop here for the day?

-Yes. -Okay. Take a seat.

-Good work. -Thank you.

KIM JONG-HYEON, RUPTURED LIGAMENT

Jong-hyeon.

Do you remember that day

when you met my mom before the competition?

Oh, you're here early. But why didn't you come with Jong-hyeon?

You called Jong-hyeon?

I told you we broke up.

You can always get back together. Guys like him are hard to come by.

I'll take care of it.

Goodness, I don't know why she didn't dress for the occasion.

Who's this?

Sit down.

-Shall I? -Don't be shy.

He's the guy I mentioned before.

You look prettier in person than on TV.

I'm Richard Jung.

It's okay.

That's a nice tie clip.

It is, isn't it?

My darling said it was an important day today

and gave it to me as a gift.

Actually, I bought that.

Thank you so much.

How did you find the time to buy it with your busy training schedule?

When did you prepare this?

When I was 12.

I bought it

using the prize money I won at the National Sports Festival.

It was my late father's birthday gift.

So don't thank me because it's not yours.

-Unbelievable. -Oh, my.

Honey?

I'm so sorry. She's rather on edge these days.

I'm sorry.

Han-na.

I'm so sorry. She's rather on edge these days.

Are you okay?

Yeah.

You said you were okay.

That's why you lost that match, right?

Come in.

Are you ready?

Yes.

Is something wrong with his ankle?

Kim Jong-hyeon is having trouble lunging forward today.

Why didn't you tell me?

I feel so bad. You should've told me.

You're right. I should've told you.

Would that have changed things between us?

I wanted to start over with you back then.

And I still want to

start over with you.

DUNG-JU

WARNING DO NOT TOUCH, DOG WILL BITE

INSUNG SUPERMARKET

Why isn't she coming?

WARNING DO NOT TOUCH, DOG WILL BITE

You should just leave the force.

Why can't you let go of being a cop?

DUNG-JU HAN-NA, ARE YOU DONE?

And I still want to

start over with you.

But this is just how I feel.

I don't want to pressure you at all.

And I didn't lose the match because of what happened that night.

So don't feel bad about it.

STEAMED BUN I'M HOME NOW! DID YOU WAIT LONG?

INSUNG CLASSIC BULGOGI

-How about a speech, sir? -What?

Me? No, it's okay.

Come on, sir.

Shall I then?

Mr. Min has been a dedicated member of the Korea Customs Service,

so it's a shame to see him retire.

Thanks for all your hard work.

Same to you, sir.

-Right. -I'll keep in touch.

What?

Oh, sounds good.

All right.

-Let's have a drink. -Okay, sir.

-Cheers. -Cheers.

Now that I think about it,

Mr. Min doesn't drink, smoke, or have a girlfriend.

What's the fun in living then?

I'm just curious. Aren't you, sir?

What?

Right.

I wonder what he does for fun.

I have more fun than you think.

-Can I choose whatever I want? -Of course.

-Okay, then. -Go ahead.

What should I get?

Welcome.

Hello.

Looks like you're having fun.

You didn't call ahead of time. What's going on?

Can I help you, ma'am?

It's okay.

Since when have we ever called ahead of time?

I thought we were closer than that.

Are you going to leave him alone?

The cop, I mean.

A disobedient mutt should be tied up nearby.

And as you said, he's cute.

Especially when he tries to fight back.

Did you come here to ask me that?

I did my part, so now you need to tell me.

Where's that bitch?

Why are you so impatient?

Do you even know where she is?

If I find out you lied to me,

you won't survive the repercussions.

Of course, I know where she is. I wouldn't dare lie about that.

She's the only person…

who remembers who you are.

A little gift to motivate you.

You'll see her soon.

Once you finish producing the last batch of Candy.

Go ahead and wait for me.

I promise to come and get you.

Okay, then.

Hold on to this hairpin for me until I see you again, okay?

Promise me.

Okay, I promise.

I mean it.

JI HO-CHEOL

Gosh, it's so hot!

What's wrong with the weather?

Why are you so late?

There was way too much traffic.

Look at this.

I got these peaches from Jochiwon. They're big and absolutely delicious.

These are hard to come by.

Look. It's as cute as a baby's bottom.

Take a whiff. It's so sweet that--

Forget it.

Why did you bring peaches? Dad doesn't like them.

Who cares if your dad doesn't like them?

Why are you in your uniform?

Is there a special event today?

Mom.

You don't know what today is, do you?

Today? What do you mean?

What is it?

Goodness.

What is it?

Oh, dear.

Han-na, wait for me!

ANNIVERSARY OF DAD'S PASSING

Sorry. This is for someone else.

REQUESTED BY KIM SEOK-HYEON RELATIONSHIP: OLDER BROTHER

You're all set for discharge.

Why are there so many forms to sign?

Family ties can be such a hassle.

I didn't ask you to come.

I'm not here out of some brotherly love either.

The Prosecutors' Office has a ton of work because of what your precious SCIT did.

And what if you'd gotten killed, huh?

You had us worried.

I mean, Father was worried.

I'm not a kid anymore,

but I'm still running his errands at my ripe old age.

What a joke.

CORPORATE SHARE WAIVER AGREEMENT

Father says if you're going to waste your life like this,

you should hand over your shares to me.

TRANSFEROR: TRANSFEREE: KIM SEOK-HYEON

You know how he is better than I do, right?

As if becoming a cop wasn't bad enough, you had to get shot, huh?

He won't just stand by anymore.

Once you decide, send it back through Secretary Kim.

Hey.

If you're going to hide, stay well out of sight.

If you're going to fight, go all in.

Not that I care much,

but take care of yourself.

INSTALLMENT SAVINGS ACCOUNT DEBIT CARD, MIN JU-YEONG

Thank you.

Thanks to you, I received severance pay.

So I opened a savings account.

You should buy me a meal if you really are thankful.

Maybe I will.

What do you want to eat?

Unbelievable.

-Enjoy. -Thank you.

This is it?

I'm unemployed, so I need to watch my spending.

Prices have gone up too much.

Look at you, being so financially responsible.

Why not eat alone and save money then?

You don't seem to have friends either.

It's nice for loners to eat together.

Sorry.

This is for someone else.

Black Cat was a mafia organization

that operated in the Russian Far East.

There used to be a famous smuggler. He went by Oh Dollar.

Where can I meet him?

He's dead.

It's been about 15 years.

Back in 2008,

a Russian mafia member was shot dead in Insung.

Stop following us. It's embarrassing.

You can't hang out with us until you ride a two-wheeler.

Go play with the little kids.

Those little brats.

What are you doing?

Are you playing detective?

Are you bored?

Is this what you've been doing instead of working?

What now? Are you going up against the Russian mafia this time?

I'm sorry.

Ranks and departments exist for a reason.

Carry out your assignment of organizing the storage.

The fastest way to catch these criminals is to focus on your job.

You should start with Section B.

Get moving, or they'll be destroyed in a month.

Yes, ma'am.

Seriously.

What is it?

Do you want to keep fighting?

Haven't you had enough?

You must be tougher than you look.

I'm used to slugfests

because I grew up taking beatings.

Eat up and get your head on straight.

I'm telling you this out of concern.

No matter how hard you try on your own,

nothing will change.

Do you still not understand

what drives people?

Welcome.

YOU HAVE A NEW MESSAGE

STEAMED BUN

Why aren't you riding your bicycle?

Is it broken?

The kids make fun of me.

They say I'm riding a bicycle for babies.

My dad was supposed to take off the training wheels

and teach me how to ride without them.

Do you know what you're doing?

Of course I do.

Just wait. I'll get it done in no time.

-Mister. -Yeah?

Have you stopped catching bad guys?

What?

Well…

Not exactly, but something came up.

Then what about the person who hurt my dad?

What?

My grandma said

the man who confessed

wasn't the person who hurt my dad.

She said the real bad guy hasn't been caught yet.

All done.

You want to give it a ride?

Are you sure I can ride this on my own?

Of course you can.

I learned on my own too.

-Why? -I didn't have anyone to teach me.

I said get the hell up!

-Get up. -Hey!

-You have a death wish? -Don't hit your sick wife!

What if I fall?

If you fall, just grit your teeth and get back up.

You can't achieve anything if you don't face your fear.

I'll hold on from behind, so don't be afraid.

You can do this.

And about the person who hurt your dad,

I'm going to catch them, no matter what.

I promise.

I'm a man of my word.

Look straight ahead.

I haven't let go.

Okay, keep going.

-Okay. -You're doing well. I'm holding on to you.

You bastard, do you know who owns this store?

Why are you doing this?

Just give me one name.

That's all I want.

Whose name?

Sir?

This here.

Who else has this?

Excuse me, can you help me get out?

Pull me out, please.

Thank you.

Thank you, sir.

-Let's cuff you now. -Can this wait?

Businesses involved in illegal operations

have recently been hit with penalties, including suspensions and closures.

All of these businesses were exposed thanks to a tip from a citizen

who is believed to be the man seen in the CCTV footage.

While the man's identity remains unknown

due to his face being covered by a hoodie,

his appearance closely matches that of the person seen in CCTV footage…

That bastard!

…from other recently reported illegal businesses.

I'm not talking about you, sir.

That little punk.

Why can't you let go of being a cop?

The only things I'm proud of in my life…

are my gold medal and being a cop.

I won't let anyone take them away from me.

Not until I catch that bastard.

I won't.

SPECIAL THANKS TO KO JUN AND LEE JI-HOON FOR THEIR GUEST APPEARANCE

Hey, why do you keep avoiding me?

Do you have some time?

I need to show you something.

He hasn't come home for days. What in the world is he doing out there?

Just how much money does Min Ju-yeong have?

What if Drugmon finds out?

-Because of the person you're looking for? -Yeah.

Nothing happened even when we had officers getting stabbed and shot.

The higher-ups will just cover it all up!

He'll know where Min Ju-yeong hid the money.

Hey, owner of 4889.

Have you eaten yet?

If not, should we eat together?

I have no choice but to avoid you.
