Is he asleep?

What are you doing?

Gong!

NOEUL GOSIWON

Mr. Suspect?

Hey, Citizen Award!
Did you see a guy just now?

Over there. The small car.

Follow him!

Who is he?

The culprit. Hurry.

Mr. Woo's case?

No, the overpass arson case.

What? What do you mean?

Just drive.

SHADOW DETECTIVE

Whose house is this now?

Get some more sleep.

Don't you think Taekrok
is acting strange lately?

Lately?

You haven't known him
long enough to say that.

I mean, with Mr. Woo's case
and the buried body.

I don't even know
why we're staking this place out.

Wake me up in an hour.

How did you become Taekrok's partner?

Because no one would take him.

But what made you trust him?

-Why do you trust him so much?
-Why can't I trust him?

What about you?
Why did you want to work with him?

-I have my reason.
-Reason?

-How do you feel about dating a coworker?
-What reason?

When I met him in Seoul, I thought
I wanted to become a detective like him.

What's the overpass arson case?
And who is that guy?

I have to catch him
to catch the one who killed Woo.

-What are you--
-They're all linked.

What?

Hey! You're losing him! Get closer! Jeez!

This is a narrow street!

Well, what kind of cop drives a sedan?

Let's take one each.

You brought your gun, right?

No.

You take the back, I'll take the front.

Who is it?

Who put you up to this?

Get up.

Who put you up to this?

CALLS

YESTERDAY

Did you get it done?

Tell him to meet you
under the overpass. Got it?

Yeah, meet me under the overpass now.

Now?

It's late. I'll meet you tomorrow.

Come on,
I have to leave this place tonight!

Fine, I'll see you there.

-Is it this kid?
-No.

It's him. The hospital director's son.

"Leave this place tonight."
Is that code for "get the hell out now"?

What is it?

I think I'm in trouble.

What now?

This is all because of you, Dad!

I'm going to leave the country.

Now.

Right now!

Hello?

Hey, is he there?

Yes, he's at home.

He just came out. What now?

Make an emergency arrest.

For now, charge him
with conspiracy to commit murder.

-Stop him.
-Yes, ma'am.

What? What's this lunatic doing?

-Mr. An Juyong?
-What are you doing?

- You're Mr. An Juyong, right?
- What?

Move your car.

Move your--

You're under arrest
for conspiracy to commit murder.

-Are you crazy?
-You have the right to remain silent.

You have the chance to defend yourself
and the right to an attorney.

You may also file a writ of habeas corpus.

Let me go.

Let go!

- Go to the police chief's house.
- Yes, sir.

I must've woken you. Sorry.

Where's your wife?

She's visiting my son in Seoul.

Are you in trouble? Is it you or Juyong?

Both of us.

-What is it?
-My son has been arrested.

By your officers.

How long are you going to keep this up?

Juyong hired a man
to kill someone and failed.

Kill who?

-Yang Kitae.
-Who?

The culprit of the overpass arson case
five years ago.

You wouldn't know,
but it's actually my son who did it.

Woo Hyunseok covered it up.

You've got to be kidding me.

Hey.

Hello, chief. I'm sorry to bother you
so late at night. I have an urgent report.

What is it?

We've got a contract killing case.

Although the attempt failed,

we've captured the contractor and hitman,
and are taking them to the station now.

And?

I'm afraid we'll have to call in

and question the director
of Geumo Hospital.

The contractor is his son.

Follow protocol and proceed.

Gwangsu, please help me.

How?

I'll bow out of the election.

You were no match for me anyway.

If I decide to go all out,
it'll be hard for you to beat me.

And what if I decide to go all out too?

I could reinvestigate
all your malpractice cases

that I covered up one by one.

Who will be in bigger trouble then?

It's too late.

Aren't we friends?

Friends?

That was when we were kids.

I'm not going down alone.

The things that you
and Woo Hyunseok did...

It's not just me and Hyunseok.

It's us, including you.

And when Hyunseok died,
he carried all the blame with him.

Don't tell me you...

Besides, do you think the city development
committee will just sit back and watch?

If I take a hit, they'll all go down.

You know that.

Are you really--

Even if he goes to prison, he won't lose
his medical license, no matter how long.

Although how long it is
would be an important factor.

Let me give you one last piece
of friendly advice.

You need to keep your hospital,

so your son can make a living
when he gets out of prison. Right?

So just shut up and do as I say, friend.

Yeah.
You can sort it out with Kook.

An Juyong is being taken
to the station now.

All right.

Chief says we can follow protocol.

Did you tell him
about the hospital director?

-Did he say anything?
-No, nothing.

Does that mean he's confident?

Sir.

We're all finished here.

Did Woo Hyunseok
really do it by himself? Or...

Chief Seo is involved in these tasks
that Friend is giving me

just as much as Cheon.

There's no way the chief killed Hyunseok.

So what's the connection?

In any case, the chief and Cheon

are both the most important leads
for finding Friend.

I have a lot of people helping me.

It'd be possible with the chief or Cheon.

By the way, how did you know
that he's the real culprit?

It's a typical tactic.

A typical tactic?

You just have to use
their guilty conscience.

GEUMO POLICE STATION

Let's start over.

You attempted
to have Mr. Yang Kitae killed.

What kind of deal did you make
with Mr. Woo Hyunseok

who was on his case five years ago?

When is my lawyer going to be here?

What's he doing?

-Are you going to keep pretending?
-What?

I haven't been here for long,
but I've seen it all already.

It's an interesting little town.

The police here are covering
for a scumbag like you.

Stuff like fabrication and concealment
happens every day,

but there was no evidence or witness.

So what?

The case was too big
for Woo to handle it himself.

Who was it?

You know, don't you?

Is it the chief here?

Give me the higher-up,

and I'll get you
the lightest sentence possible.

-Lightest sentence?
-I'm in charge of your case, bastard.

His lawyer is here.

Get in there now.

I'm following protocol,
within my authority.

This case, as well as Woo's death,
will be handled by another precinct.

You're off the case now. Take him.

Yes, sir.

Chief.

I'm following protocol,
within my authority.

May I have a word with you?

Yes, it's about time we do.

Close the door behind you.

Yes, sir.

Turn everything off.

-What do you want to know?
-I believe Mr. Woo was murdered.

I also believe that the arson case
has something to do with his death.

-You're suspicious of me?
-I'm open to all possibilities.

You think I killed Woo?

Do you think I played a part in concealing
and fabricating the arson case?

If you reconsider the transfer,
it'll become clear.

That's why I'm handing them off.

For a clear and objective investigation.

Would you be able to carry out
a proper investigation against me?

I'm your immediate superior.

I promised the detectives
that I'll let them investigate freely.

That I'll protect them
from all external pressure.

Then feel free to take it up
with the head office.

Which precinct will be taking over?

At work, you have to put
the organization's needs before your own.

Even more so with us police.

You should know that by now.

Accept it.

Go get some rest. And change your clothes.

And when you get a hold of Detective
Kim Taekrok, tell him to call me.

He's not answering my calls.

And you've already crossed the line

suspecting my son.

YEONGSEO GEUMO POLICE STATION

KOOK JINHAN

CHUNGJEONG-RO POLICE OFFICE
SEODAEMUN POLICE INVESTIGATION

2008 POLICE AGENCY HEAD OFFICE

You're up.

The hole...

Why is there a hole in my door?

You wake up at the sound of my phone
buzzing, and yet, you slept through this?

I was anxious,
so I took some sleeping pills.

I found the real culprit.

I never asked you to catch the culprit.
I asked you to get me my money!

Apply for a retrial.
I'll get you a lawyer.

For some cheap compensation!

What are you going to do about my money?

Look, he was going to kill you!

You idiot.

I mean...
Did you think it was going to be easy?

That's why I moved next door to you!

Hold up.

How did you know
he was going to come for me?

He's offering a billion?

Seo Yoonjae?

- Who's this?
- It's me, Yang Kitae.

Thanks to you, I spent
the last five years in the slammer.

Right, good work.

Wow, that was rude. He hung up.

-It's like you were reading a book aloud.
-I just read what you gave me.

Call An Juyong.

And try to sound more natural.

This really isn't my kind of thing. Shoot.

I mean, I can't get into character.

Come on, this is your specialty.

-What is?
-Forgery.

Forging is different from acting.

Just do it.

Hello?

An Juyong?

- Who is this?
- It's me, Yang Kitae.

Thanks to you, I spent
the last five years in the slammer.

Give me money and I'll call it even.

Give me a billion won,
and I'll stay quiet my whole life.

What is this psycho saying? Who are you?

That hobo you set on fire. I got him.

And before Woo Hyunseok died,
I met with him. Here, listen.

Behave.
And I'll take care of you.

I'll make up for you
rotting in prison for five years.

Aren't you doing this for money anyway?

Wait. Until I reach out.

Get it ready by tomorrow morning,
or I take this to the police.

And I'll take that hobo with me.

You set this whole thing up,
didn't you?

You used me as bait
and don't care if I die or not!

-Idiot.
-Aah!

I'm the one who almost got killed, okay?

-And I'm the one who protected you.
-Scumbag.

You little...

Gosh, you are completely heartless.
You know? You have no conscience.

The important part starts now.

What now? What is it this time?

You are the only one
who can apply for a retrial.

Once I get reinstated,

I'll reinvestigate this case
and reveal the truth by any means.

And when will that be?

I just have a few things to settle first.

Prove your innocence, get compensated,

and go see your mother with pride.

Look, kid. I know
that you haven't gone to see her,

because you're too ashamed to face her,
not because of money.

Apologize to me.

Once I settle everything.

Trust me.

Whatever.

You little...

Don't use violence, okay?

GEUMO POLICE STATION

You've just been appointed, and...

things have been hectic, right?

I should get used to it.

Have you ever been to Geumo
before you relocated?

Only briefly, when I was little.
This is my first time since then.

So you never met Mr. Woo
before your appointment?

No. I met him for the first time
when the chief introduced us.

Why do you ask?

On the day of Mr. Woo's accident,

I saw the look on your face.

It looked like you knew him well.

Did I?

Mm.

You're the one who let him be
this whole time.

If you knew,
you should've stopped me sooner!

I killed him,
but you're the one who got him killed.

Now, we're going to do
a joint investigation.

Your wrongdoings that you're unaware of
are going to be exposed.

These past few days
have felt like years.

Darn it.

Shoot.

What were you doing there last night?

Does it matter?

You should thank me for helping you.

And you should go see a doctor first.
Untreated injuries become a problem later.

A hot bath is my cure.

You get treated,
or you'll regret it when you get old.

Every old person I've seen has regrets.

Not me!

Jeez. You look like the guy
with the most regrets ever.

Wow.

That's how I looked at your age.

Gosh, the thought of turning out
to be like you, detective,

horrifies me.

Hey.

-Why are you calling me "detective"?
-Would you prefer "suspect"?

What happened to the cases?

They've been transferred
by the head office.

Both Woo Hyunseok's
and Yang Kitae's cases?

Yes, they took them all.

Chief Seo has something
to do with this after all.

Did you know?

I couldn't stop them from taking it,
but I can't let it go yet.

I know you can't either,
for whatever reason.

-Are you feeling me out?
-I know you also think

the chief is hiding something.

I need to borrow your people.

Again? Why?

What letter is always trying
to find reasons? "Y."

Don't ever come back up.

How big is it?

It's about 1.5 cm in length and width.

I don't see it.

If it's not here...

Hey, stop.

What is it?

Come here.

He's about
the same height and size.

Let me see you jump again.

-What?
-You just jumped over the rocks here.

Do it again.

I mean, why...

How was it again...

Like this?

I came down from Seoul
to learn from you.

It's an honor
to be on the same team as you.

Take care, sir.

Run into the woods.

- Why?
- Run!

Stop!

Are you okay?

-Do you have anything to say to me?
-Not really.

-Is this your first time running here?
-You just told me to run!

Why did you come to our station?

-Don't give me the "I admire you" crap.
-I don't admire you anymore.

What's your deal with the chief?

He and my mom went to the same school.

So I pulled some strings!
At first, I wanted to learn from you.

But not anymore?

You're a murder suspect
who fabricated a case and evidence.

Is that how you always work?

-Hey!
-And if you want to give us a job,

the least you can do
is explain the situation.

Then transfer to another team. Why stay?

I told you. I only look forward.

I'm doing things my way now.

That's none of my concern.

When the victim's body
was being excavated,

where were you?

I was with Sunga!

-Is that true?
-It's true. We were at the station.

What?

Taekrok, you're being neurotic
right now. Okay?

You're poking around old cases
when you should be vindicating yourself.

What on earth is going on?

Please tell me.

Later.

You may not trust him,
but you can't trust me either?

It's not about whether I trust you or not.

Jeez, that old fogey...

That little...

Leave him be.

He only looks forward.

Not from what I've seen lately.
He's been acting strange.

Not as much as you, though.

Because I'm an old fogey.

Take him and go.

That kid can't be the friend.

The wound.

-What were you doing there last night?
-Does it matter?

You should thank me for helping you.

They told me a lot about you
when I said I was coming here.

If I don't keep you in check,
you'll keep me in check.

Everyone seems like the friend.

Hey, Lieutenant Kim. How are you?

Hey, you know Kook Jinhan, don't you?

The one who worked at
your inspection division until recently.

Aah. So he transferred to your station?

Listen. What kind of person is he?

Why? Is he being a dickhead over there?

Figures. A leopard can't change his spots.

He once beat up his superior,
and he's a serious workaholic.

Once he's hooked on something,
he doesn't stop until it's over.

Come to think of it,
he's a lot like you, Taekrok.

He wasn't like that when he started out.
He changed completely after that incident.

That incident?

Let's see. Was that five years ago?

You know, the one about a broker
that got our commissioner fired.

-You know the incident with Chairman Jang.
-That was him?

That was him.

Hey, Kook. Why don't you just quit too?

Who would take responsibility
for someone who'd stab them in the back?

A member of an organization
is the organization itself.

But what about you? You're just you.

Are you going to hit me too?

-You look like you want a piece of me too.
-Come on.

-Hey now.
-Come on, he's not worth it.

Did you just sneer at me, bastard?

Calm down.

Hey, you'll never make your way up!

Since then, he's been an outsider.

You know what our commissioner was like.

He made it from constable to commissioner
beating all those from the academy.

And it's not like he gets along
with those from the police university.

He's an outsider there too.

You're an outsider yourself,
so you'd understand.

I'm not an outsider.

You've shut out
the entire police for the last 30 years.

I know you still like me.

Well, you did get stabbed instead of me.

But to be completely honest, I...

I love you, man.

Now that I think about it,

Kook Jinhan would be just like you
around the time of his retirement.

You two are so much alike.

You both shut out the world

and live like an evergreen
in the wilderness.

-Hanging up now.
-Still,

he applied to transfer there.
I'm surprised he's not settling in.

He applied?

Darn it.

- What is it?
- Trace a number for me.

What, now?

Darn it.

He wasn't transferred.
I'm pretty sure he applied.

And if I'm right, Kook doesn't know
anyone there. He had no reason to go.

Here's the recent call history
of the number you gave me, Taekrok.

NAME
KOOK JINHAN

BAE YOUNGDOO, HAN KIYONG,
KIM KYUNGSOOK, BAE YOUNGDOO

HAN KIYONG, KWAK SANGKYU

My number...

isn't here.

FISHING POLES FOR RENT

Hi, Detective Han.

Yeah, thanks to you,
I was able to rent everything.

Yeah, everything including the boat.

-Detective Kim?
-Where are you going?

-Don't tell me...
-I followed you.

-Shouldn't it be the other way around?
-I asked where you're going.

Fishing.

-Let's talk.
-All right, sure.

Do you fish?

You must have a lot of time on your hands.

The chief made me take a day off.

Anyway, why did you follow me?

Did I do something wrong?

Do you feel guilty about something?

Doesn't everyone have a thing or two
that they feel guilty about?

Why did you come to my studio?

-Why did you come?
-I had something to check.

You didn't answer your phone.

-The hiker.
-The hiker?

That day, a hiker put you in the cab
and sent you home,

but I can't find him.

I was wondering if you knew him.

That must be the friend.

Do you have a photo?

It's the same guy.

You really don't know him?

How tall are you?

I'm 178 cm.

He's also the same height.

Don't tell me...

You're suspicious of me?

Huh?

Oh. All right.

That's why you followed me.

If you're really suspicious of me,
that means you're not the culprit.

Who's this guy then?

Why did you come here?

What do you mean?

Why would an elite like you come
to this backcountry?

There's nothing juicy here.

-Why the sudden interest?
-You weren't assigned here. You applied.

Well, if you know that,
you must also know that

I got the commissioner fired
when I was a reckless simpleton,

and that they see me as a traitor.

When I was working at the head office,
I was pressured to resign.

The team leader, in particular.
That jerk wouldn't get off my back.

So I exposed all the bribes he took
and came down here.

I'm asking, why here?

Actually, I...

went to Geumo Elementary School,
just like you.

I lived here for two years
when I was little,

because of a family situation.

My wife and I aren't doing so well now,
so I moved here to take a break.

But thanks to you, I can't catch one.

Jeez.

-Did it hurt?
-Of course it did.

Why?

Do you think
this is the only place that hurts?

Look at this, okay?

I almost died trying to help you.

You saw it all at the bathhouse.

And you're suspecting me after all that?

You know what? To be honest,
while I was fighting those guys...

Yeah, what?

I thought you couldn't be the culprit.

We almost died together,
and you're still suspecting me?

There's still doubt,
but he's got a point.

Get off the boat now.

Are you upset?

Come on, be honest with me.

Let me see your phone.

No.

Mm...

I got your call history.

From the day of the incident
until recently, the same number pops up.

And it's a burner phone. Right?

I had it traced
and the location was Jamsil Tower.

"Friend"?

FRIEND

What is it?

I guess you're having
a tough time. You sound surly.

You're not glad to hear from me, friend?

Hey. I told you
not to call me your friend.

Have you caught the real culprit yet?

Does he not know
that An Juyong is the real culprit?

Or is he pretending like he doesn't know?

I'm still looking.

You'd better hurry.
You have until tonight.

He doesn't know
who the real culprit is.

But he will soon
unless he was sounding me out.

I have to find him before that.

Who was that?

Your accomplice?

The truth is,

I'm...

being threatened.

He's the one who killed Woo Hyunseok
and the number you tracked down.

The hiker?

So someone actually framed you?

Who on earth would do that? For what?

Help me catch him.

Only I can catch him.

If this gets out, he will disappear.

He has proof that I killed Hyunseok.

What proof?

He says there's a witness.
You get what I'm saying?

No. I have no idea what you're saying.
It just doesn't make any sense.

And yet it's true.

MOKRO TAVERN

Is the owner not here?

Her daughter had a baby,
and she's visiting her.

She won't be back for a few days.

So he's your friend. Right?

But you don't know who he is.

You're just like Hong Gildong
who can't call his father "Father".

Detective Kim.

Look at me.

You're not making this up?

It's only a matter of time
till he finds out who the real culprit is.

I need to catch him before that.

He'll call me again at least once.

Let's track down his location then.

You get the equipment.

I'll have to give your number to the
telephone company I have connections with.

-This might put you in danger too.
-Protect me then.

Promise me.

Protect yourself.

Listen.

Why do you think
that friend of yours chose you?

Do you have anyone in mind who can be him?

I don't know why.

I've narrowed it down to two people.

At this point, if it's neither of them...

-Then what?
-Then it's someone completely unexpected.

And I'll lose to him.

If then, would you get arrested
for murdering Mr. Woo?

Probably.

Darn it.

Even if you knew who he was,

it's only your words,
which doesn't hold up to anything.

Who are the two people?

Anyway, it's almost over.

I just need to play
one more game with him.

I'm sure I'll catch him then.

Game?

Okay.

Let's catch him together.
I'll believe you this time.

Why did you guys fight here?

You said you got caught up
in old memories. What old memories?

Go home.

Come on, let's have one more drink.

I have to go write in my diary.

Diary?

NOEUL GOSIWON

What does the friend want
from Choi Kyoil's and Yang Kitae's cases?

Is An Juyong not his target?

Just like with Choi Kyoil last time.

Why hasn't he called yet?

The friend

knows me well.

He knows me very well.

How?

I took this picture
one month ago.

I haven't touched
these diaries since then.

Someone else touched them.

Some detective came to search your room.

This is him.

What's going on?

KWAK SANGKYU
HOMICIDE TEAM 2 / SERGEANT

Hello?

Hey, Kwak. You searched my room, right?

I didn't search it. It's just a formality.

I didn't touch anything.

Are you sure?

Ask the manager there. He was with me.

In that case...

Let me see the security camera footage.

I can't say no, can I?

Hurry.

What exactly are you looking for?

Someone broke into my room.

What?

What's missing?

Nothing.

But I know it was.

What's the storage capacity?

Three months.

Pause.

This is just about three months ago.

Play.

Stop.

What's his room number?

He's not from here.

Keep playing.

It's him.

And he was here recently.

That's strange. How did he get in?

What's this?

Well, I'm moving back home.

-Because of me?
-No.

I failed the exam again.

You're giving up?

I've run out of money for lessons,
and I feel bad for my mom.

I can't keep doing this anymore.

-Text me your bank account number.
-What?

Make sure to pay me back after you pass.

What's got into him?
That is so out of character.

Bank account number... What was it...

I checked the camera
at the entrance,

but there's no footage of him coming in.

He's been going in and out
of this place through the rooftop.

HOW TO PREVENT DEMENTIA

I know you well.

No.

He doesn't know me.

I don't know him either.

"Everyone is bound
to shoot themselves in the foot."

Everyone is bound
to shoot themselves in the foot.

"And I guess I'm no exception..."

He...

read my journals.

The friend must have gone through
all the material thoroughly.

It must've taken a long time.

You're thoroughly prepared.

Of course.
I know whom I'm up against.

In this room,

there must be his traces.

Do you remember
the fratricide case?

"I'm sure it's him,
but there's no evidence."

Who planted fake evidence then?

"Crucial evidence."

From now on, I'll show you exactly
how many sins you have committed.

He should be as frustrated
as you are right now. Yang Kitae.

"Yang Kitae has been
a weight on my mind.

He's just a petty criminal, so why?

Most importantly, he has no motive.

I wonder if Woo Hyunseok
is hiding something."

You knew he was corrupted.

You knew, but you kept
telling yourself to put it off.

"I know I need
to look into it again,

but I don't have the time
or the will to do it."

You're the one who let him be
this whole time.

"I fear the mistakes
I have made..."

The wrongdoings that

-you're unaware of...
-"...without my knowledge."

...are going to be exposed.

In your past, you can find me
and the reason I'm doing this.

While doing what you can to find me.

This game will not end
until one of us dies.

He's in here.

I got you, buddy.

Are you sure?

Get every speck of dust
and fingerprint analyzed thoroughly.

-And I'll make sure no one knows.
-That's the most important.

Be careful until we get the results.

It's also important to do it fast.
