We now begin our operation
to arrest the suspects

and retrieve the firearms
still in the gang's possession.

Special Ops and I will be
at the main source. We'll be at the club.

Officer Lee will raid
the apartment complex

and retrieve the rest of the firearms.

Regarding the apartment complex,

can't we order the Special Ops unit
just to rush in and outnumber them all?

It's too risky for a few reasons.

This is a large complex
in a highly populated area.

There's a commercial sector

as well as a subway station
in the vicinity.

With the citizens
already anxious about guns,

I think a large-scale shootout

would only bring
widespread panic and confusion.

As you all know,
this operation must be handled carefully

and quicker than usual.

How can we trust
that Seok-ho will cooperate in good faith?

Could it be
that he's got some ulterior motive?

We're prepared for that.

Once we arrest Seok-ho
and Jeong-man at the club,

Officer Lee will then enter
the apartment complex.

First, let me confiscate all the guns
in Jeong-man's hideout

and see where it goes from there.

All right.
Bring the suspects here by tomorrow.

Come on, guys! Let's go!

GYEONGIN SEOBU POLICE STATION

-Come on, hurry up!
-I got it.

-You get it all in?
-Yeah.

Follow them.

All units,
stand by until Jeong-man arrives.

Officer Lee?

We're good on our end.

Jeong-man hasn't arrived yet.

We'll call you when he's here.

YAKAM TOURIST HOTEL

What are those dirtbags doing in there
that's taking so long?

How are your fingers?

All good. See?

I even put cream on
so they're soft and supple.

Put it on.

It'll only fool him for a second or two.

Give him my regards

Oh yeah, I'll make sure. Believe me.

Shit! The fuck was that?!

Hey.

How do you like this thing?

Huge, right?

What the--

Jeong-man! Jeong-man!

Jeong-man!
Listen to me now! We can talk about this!

Jeong-man's car is approaching.
Vehicle arriving.

He's here.

Everyone, check your firearms
and bulletproof vests.

Be on your guard.

You ready?

Listen.

If I make it out of here alive,

I'll take you somewhere nice, okay?

And if not?

If not…

…Jeong-man will treat you. Wish me luck.

Huh?

Well, come on in.

I bet you're surprised, Gong,
you stupid fucking bitch. Huh?

You wanted these guys, right?
Huh? You see? Say hello!

Ah shit.

You tried burying me
in the middle of nowhere.

And now Jeong-man is burying you.
Isn't that ironic? Huh?

Shots fired in building.
Shots fired in building.

Special Ops, mobilize.

In teams of two,
conduct a full sweep of the building.

Jeong-man, you bitch!

Fucking hell, you scared me.
What are you yelling at me for?

Hello?

You get those fingers you wanted?

Where the hell are you?

That's not important right now.

Did you finally meet Mr. Kim's ghost?

It's not my business
where all this cash came from.

But consider it as a payment in full
for all those jobs we did.

-What?
-Oh, and I'm really sorry.

But you know those cigars?

The Cubans?

To be honest,
they don't really suit you at all.

Jeong-man,

after everything I did for you…

Says the bastard
who sold me out to the police.

Eat shit, motherfucker!

Let's go.

Please!

Stop shooting, god dammit.

Shut up and die, prick.

What the… This isn't Jeong-man.

It's Mr. Kim.

What are you talking about?

Where's Jeong-man?

He's most likely
headed in your direction, sir.

All right, leave it up to me.

Stand by until I give the signal.

Standing by. Waiting for signal.

-Watch it.
-Don't forget your bag.

Let's go.

Boss, how'd it go?

Listen up.

-Holy shit! This is incredible.
-What's this?

Now,

this was a long time coming.
Divide it equally.

Starting today, it's finally our turn.
Nothing but the best for my crew!

Yes, fuck!

Sweet, right?

I can't believe this!

Don't forget to grab your share too.
Get in there.

-You have to get out of here. Hurry!
-Yes, sir.

Jeong-man.

Cops have totally stormed the place.

Okay.

Get over here quick.

Hey. You got a light?

Me? Nope.

I'm gonna grab one from the car.

-Someone's shooting!
-Go check outside!

Shit. Are the cops here?

Encountered a suspect.
Entering building. Prepare for engagement.

-Clean this shit up!
-Let's go! Hurry up!

Go.

Shots fired in an apartment complex.

If suspect is spotted,
use any force necessary.

Turn now!

Go faster!

Bitch!

Wake up.

Keep driving.

Chang-ju!

Chang-ju!

Jun-ho?

Hey. Jun-ho!

Jun-ho!

Jun-ho, we need to go.

Yeah.

Jun-ho!

Let's go!

Location confirmed.
Suspect will be taken into custody.

All the firearms used in recent shootings

have been traced back
to the criminal organization

whose members were arrested today.

The police have stated

that they would continue
to make every effort

to find the remaining guns
that have not yet been recovered.

The police have successfully rounded up
the organization responsible

for distributing firearms.

This is seriously happening right now?

It's from Jake. You should answer.

…knowing the organization responsible

has been arrested.

The guns were confiscated.
They're in police custody.

If Korean Intelligence
starts sniffing around…

You understand my concern.

I don't like when things get messy.

You know what's gonna happen
if the CIA sniffs this out.

It won't just be Korea on the line.

It'll be the end of our business!

Understand?

We won't let that happen, sir.
We'll clean it up.

Wrap it up.

And come home.

Would you

care to look yourself, sir?

This is your daughter.

Is that correct?

That is…

…that is not my daughter.

Pardon, sir?

I said that's not my daughter.

I know it must be difficult.

But could you please
take a closer look, sir?

That is not my daughter.

RECENT CALLS

MY DAUGHTER

Please pick up.

I just need you to pick up.

Hmm. So I see my daughter packed me

another bland lunch today,
thinking I would be thankful.

It's good for you.
It's important for you to stay healthy.

Yeah! I know, I know.

She told me she wants to move out.

Something about her work-life balance or…

But she wants to take out a loan
from the bank and start a lease.

-Look who it is.
-Huh?

Who's that?!

Oh, look! It's my daughter, Se-yeong!

My Se-yeong.

-I told you to call them.
-I did call them.

But I can't get ahold of anyone.
That's why I'm asking for your help.

-Whatever. Forget it.
-The police aren't busy enough?

Please answer.

I miss you so much, Se-yeong.

Of course, yes.
We'll… we'll look into that.

-Evening, Inspector.
-What are you doing here?

Just wanted to check something.

-All right.
-Hello.

Things are crazy out there
with all these guns.

-You should be extra careful, okay?
-Yes. I will.

You stay safe too, Inspector.

-I'll keep in touch.
-Yeah, okay.

-Good luck.
-Have a good night.

Can I help you?

Well, well. Sergeant Lee.

Long time no see.

So you're still alive.

It's good to see you.

Don't think
just because you saved my ass once

gets you off the hook. Understood?

After all that time we spent
fighting together on the battlefield,

it's not right you only visit
when you need a favor. Hurts my feelings.

Hmm?

I've been meaning to come.

Yeah.

Maybe one day you can take me out
to a movie and dancing, you know?

Ah, never mind. I'm not much of a dancer.
Here, let me take a look at this.

Wow, what's this?

It was found in one of the guns
retrieved from the scene.

Whoa.
This is a new state-of-the-art GPS device.

This is impressive.
It even has wiretapping capabilities.

So is it tapping us now?

Mm-mm. Nah.

This chip doesn't support tapping,
only tracking.

Were there any other devices
aside from this?

Other devices…
No. I… I don't think I saw any.

Okay, so with this thing,

you can only track locations.

You'd need another assistive device
to enable the wiretapping.

"An assistive device"?

You have to look deeper.

There must be something obvious
that you're missing.

In the past few years,
there's been a massive influx

of illegal firearms
into areas of civil and interstate war.

The CIA conducted
and finally determined that

the organization behind these incidents

was the International Rifle Union.

The IRU primarily operates
on the black market,

massively involved in the illegal sales
and distribution of weapons

to groups
that can't obtain them otherwise.

Through legal channels,

we know that they hold an immense power.

A major force lobbying for US politicians
and global corporations,

making them practically untouchable.

This is Blue Brown.

He's been identified as the person
in charge of overseeing

and managing
all distributional aspects of firearms

currently taking place here
in South Korea.

How many guns
have been brought into the country so far?

The current number…
is approximately 30,000.

What? Did you say 30,000?

Investigations revealed
no actual couriers were used

during the incidents
involving Jeong-tae and Won-seong.

While we're working to trace

where and how these firearms
were stored and distributed,

it's still proving to be very difficult.

Even if it started with smuggling them in,

it's not possible

they scattered all those guns
across the country without couriers.

So this is where you were hiding out.

Now,

who said you could leave
the nurses' station without my say?!

I'm so sorry.

My shift was almost over.

I haven't been home this week,

and I wanted to at least…
grab some clean socks from home.

Just wash the ones you have on.

Don't think you're anything special.

I just got in trouble because of you.

Go wipe down all the IV poles

and change the patient's dressings
right now.

I don't know why,

but every single thing you do
pisses me off.

If you're stupid,
the least you can do is work a bit harder.

Come on, Nurse Yu-jin.
Let's just leave her.

Fucking bitch.

Just looking at her face
makes me want to smash it.

I just can't stand her.

Hey there.

If everyone had a gun,

what would that mean to Korea?

What?

Aren't you curious?

I'm… not sure what you mean.

What provokes anger the most in people
is other people.

Selfish people.

But the strange thing is,

when you have one of these in your hand…

…it changes the rules.

"The rules"?

You're saying you wanna change
the rules of the world with guns?

Mm-hmm.

You can't really think that--

Do you know the real power of a gun?

It's an easy thing,

pulling this little 5-millimeter trigger.

Sends a sound
that travels over 500 meters away.

It's a sound
that travels deep into people's fear.

And you and I don't matter.

It provokes a reaction.

And that reaction provokes
another and another.

You get a hundred people
pulling the trigger…

or a thousand people…

what do you think happens then?

In the blink of an eye…

Swah!

And eventually,
all that fear will give way

to a new world order.

To approach the people of Korea,
you have to understand their emotions.

The victims are always the first ones
to pull the trigger.

Something we can all understand
at the end of it all.

Despair is the key.

So I ask you to do one thing.

Just one.

Get some footage of my beautiful guns,

so that people can see

how they can change everything.

Who, exactly, are you in the service of?

You and I both know
who we are isn't important.

What is important is what happens next.

That answer will completely change
the world as we know it.

If my guess is right,

there's a chip like this
in each of those guns.

That's how everyone who has them
is being monitored.

So the big question is…

hmm…

…what is this assistive device?

-Hello?
-Hey, it's Lee.

Aside from the address list,

did the shooters have anything else
in common, do you know?

Nothing
except their cell phones being hacked.

Cell phones?

Sir, this is Officer Lee.
He was my superior in the military.

Officer Lee,
once the IRU selects a target,

they normally leave behind bullets.

That marks the beginnings
of their operations.

It's a signal that they'll eventually
distribute guns in that area

Listen to me.

Prior to the gosiwon shootings,

you found bullets at a nearby house.

I'm sure you remember that.

Detective Seo! Detective!

This was found on his body?

It's obvious
these rounds haven't been reported.

What did the deceased do for work?

The deceased had a criminal record.
It seems that he sold children for money.

He sold them to foreigners
about 20 to 30 years ago.

What do you want?

It's been a while.

What?

Hey.

I asked you what you want!

You haven't changed at all.

We're gonna make some money!

Type AB…

Let's see. Hey!

Yeah, you. Come over here.

Yeah.

So the bullets
you found at that house were a signal

that he will do whatever he can

to take down
the country that abandoned him.

He's someone
who wants to make his message very clear.

And you're an important part in all this.
That's why he approached you.

I'm not exactly sure.

We found this embedded in
one of the guns Jeong-man was holding.

GPS devices like this
were hidden in all the distributed guns.

So they used these chips

to track the locations
of people they gave guns to?

That's right.
It's a state-of-the-art GPS monitor.

Coupled with an assistive device,
they can track who gets what.

If it can tap conversations,
I think we can reverse it.

To the source?

As you know,
from all the chips that we confiscated,

we were able to pick up a signal
that was common to all of them.

That's the source.

That signal is the base
of the organization.

That's a possibility.

What? What's happening?

-Huh?
-What's that?

-What's going on?
-Is it… Blue Brown?

What's he doing?

-Main screen controls offline.
-Yes, understood.

-Find out how he hacked us.
-On it.

-Secure the server.
-Yes, will do.

-It's not working.
-Too much traffic.

Trace his IP address.

Determining exact location.

Trace the call now!

Manager, looks like someone has a gun.

Everyone, put your hands on your heads
and stand up!

Stand up now!

Everyone move to the back of the room.

-Move. Quickly!
-Don't bring anything with you.

Move towards the back. Quickly.

So,

aren't you happy to see me again,
my friend?

Yeah. I knew you guys, uh,

would find the chips eventually.

But…

…that's not what's important right now.

We have one secured.

That gun…

You think there aren't more than that?

There are tons of people in Korea
who want guns.

Here, there, everywhere.

Especially at 27 Baekju-ro.

27 Baekju-ro.

There's someone
who's about to pull a trigger right now.

This is 27 Baekju-ro.

I'm just really curious

what decision you'll make.

Hurry up, my friend.

There isn't much time left.

Sergeant…

This morning,
another scam victim took her own life.

This is now the ninth reported case.

Despite the victim's pleas
and desperate signals,

the authorities are still being criticized
for being blind to this matter.

Their vacuous measures
have led many families

to demand a reexamination
on the part of the government

to improve its penalties on scammers,
which will hopefully better in…

Sergeant, please.

Officer Lee?

Officer Lee!

Make sure we follow the signal
if it changes.

Here's the chip. Track its location.

Yes, sir.

Here's where the GPS got picked up.

-Update me on Blue Brown's location.
-I'll do my best.

Okay, let's go!

SERGEANT JO

You're the man now!

-Hold on.
-Who's this?

CANCEL

Confirming Blue Brown's location?

Yes, we were able to narrow it down

to Dongbu-dong and Gyeongin.

-You're so good.
-Don't you think so? Oh!

Whatever you're selling,
we're not interested.

The old man's gonna sing a doozy!

Come on, daddy.

What?

Oh shit.

Lee Do,

Se-yeong was sucked into a scam
she couldn't get out of, and she…

Do you know…

what pain feels like?

This guy's lost it.

-What a loser.
-I mean… what the fuck?

Why the hell would you come
into someone else's private room

and start talking shit?
Get the hell out of here.

Seriously,
what's this lunatic even talking about?

Someone call security.

Security…

Son Hyeon-seong, 34 years of age.

Seven previous convictions,
including fraud and illegal gambling.

Cheon Il-su, 35 years of age.

Nine previous convictions,
including fraud and assault.

Shit!

You're killing my vibe.

Who the hell are you, old man?

Because people like you can
never begin to understand,

because you lack
even a shred of human decency.

My beautiful daughter…

couldn't bear it for one more minute

and took her own life today.

What the hell does your dead daughter…
have to do with me or anyone here?

I just saw my daughter at the morgue.

Do not even dare
to insult the memory of her.

Can someone just get this crazy old man
out of my fucking face?

So what are you gonna do, pops?

What do you want us to do?
Did we kill her?

No, I don't think we did.

So fuck off
while we go back to our party.

What is it you want us to do, huh?

What do you want from me?

Apologize at my daughter's funeral.

Apol… apologize? Shit.

Is that what she asked for?

Huh?

Unless you wanna join your dead daughter
at the morgue,

I'd suggest leaving now
before I really lose my temper.

Get out of here.

Get the fuck out!

Go on.

Now.

What a fucking pain in the ass.
This guy ruined my buzz.

Whoa, he's got a gun!

What the fuck are you doing?!

No!

You leave us alone, you crazy bastard!

-She was my little girl.
-Don't shoot! Don't shoot!

She died,
and you don't feel a single thing.

How utterly hopeless is that?

Someone call the police!
