HUMINT

INTELLIGENCE GATHERING THROUGH HUMAN SOURCES

MAHADOR, SOUTHEAST ASIA

Soo Rin, it's me.

Put your clothes on.

Her vitals are stable.

Thanks for your hard work.

What's this?

It's nothing special.

Wow, it's the first time I've received a gift at work.

Anyway…

Thank you.

Can I…

really get out today?

Two hours after I leave,

a backup team will come and escort you.

Before you leave, we need to go over your testimony

one last time.

You can do that, right?

Originally…

I was sent to Russia as a foreign currency earner.

Foreign currency earners…

must leave their families behind in the fatherland.

So I left my child and husband

to work in Vladivostok

and receive training.

Then one day,

while I was working at a restaurant,

State Security raided the place

and I was suddenly ordered back home.

They said

they were taking me to a ship headed for Rajin Port.

But then…

some Russians

took me away.

Those Russian animals treated me like their plaything,

and they even recorded it on video.

And…

they even injected me with something like bingdu.

"Bingdu" mentioned, sir.

Have her confirm it was narcotics.

We need to confirm that for her escape op to be approved.

What exactly is bingdu?

In our country,

we call the ice drug bingdu.

And so…

I barely stayed alive, dealing with men

whose faces I can't even remember.

And before I knew it…

I had been taken all the way to China.

Hey, we need more info on the drug situation.

When was her first dose, and who gave it to her?

But we're getting info on the human trafficking route.

That's not what's important here.

Get her to talk about the drugs.

Sir! I'll do whatever you tell me!

- Please get me out of here! - What the hell? Stop her!

Please just get me… No!

Can you send backup first?

You get out first. We've got all the info we need.

What do you mean? We're getting her out today.

This is an unauthorized op, so the budget hasn't been approved.

Once we get funding with this intel, we can get her…

Just get out of there first!

Is this seriously…

the best we can do?

Listen carefully.

There's a hiccup in our communication right now,

- but I'll fix it right away, so-- - Please!

Please don't leave me!

I have to get back to my family!

Okay.

You'll expose the whole team. Just pull out now!

I'll pay extra.

Do not engage.

Get out.

You son of a bitch!

Hey, you South Korean bastards!

You got what you wanted and now you're leaving me?

Keep your promise!

Please don't abandon me!

Please!

Please don't leave me…

Please… Please!

Please!

Stop it!

I'm sorry!

I'm sorry. Please don't!

I said do not engage! Get out of there!

Soo Rin, stay with me.

Manager Zo.

You didn't take your gun, did you?

If you open fire, there's no turning back.

NATIONAL INTELLIGENCE SERVICE SAFE HOUSE, MAHADOR

Checking her pupils.

No pupillary response.

Soo Rin.

Soo Rin, wake up.

Hooking her up to the monitor.

Oxygen saturation is low.

Give her oxygen.

What's wrong? Can't find a vein?

Her veins are blown. Let me check her feet.

What is it? What's happening to her?

She's in V-Fib. Get the defibrillator.

Start CPR.

Charge to 150.

Shocking now. Stand clear!

Clear.

Charge to 200.

Shocking now. Stand clear!

Clear.

One more time. Out of the way!

There's no pulse.

What are you talking about? No, wait.

What else could we do? The higher-ups wouldn't sign off.

She wouldn't have lasted long, even if we had pulled her out.

If we'd just done what we promised,

Kim Soo Rin would not have died.

She trusted us.

There's no such thing in this business.

Everyone's just using each other to survive.

It's part of the job.

Get used to it.

Is people dying something we can just get used to?

No one starts out being used to it.

You get used to it as you go.

NATIONAL INTELLIGENCE SERVICE REPUBLIC OF KOREA

Manager Zo, is this your first time losing an informant?

Yes, it's his first, but he's handling it fine.

Well, it must be a bit of a shock.

But thanks to Ms. Kim Soo Rin's efforts,

we have a clear picture now.

We can directly tie this case to the drug distribution network

in the Daechi-dong academy district.

"North Korea has been distributing drugs to our teenagers,

trying to ruin the future generations of the Republic of Korea."

We've secured multiple testimonies

related to drugs from North Korean female defectors.

And traces of drugs were found in Kim Soo Rin's body--

This HUMINT operation has made it clearer

that international human trafficking crimes are targeting North Korean women.

Hey, Manager Zo.

No, no. Go on.

They were drugged and trafficked

through Russia and China to Europe, Southeast Asia, and even South Africa.

Many of the trafficked women's point of departure was Vladivostok.

Many testimonies suggest the North Korean State Security's involvement,

so we suspect the consulate's involvement too.

This is the latest intel

from the Russia team on the Vladivostok mafia.

VLADIVOSTOK MAFIA ORGANIZATION CHART

Wow.

This is a good case.

With North Korean-Russian relations growing closer these days,

even the US and China are on edge.

Imagine we get control of a situation

where international crime is happening within their borders.

Chief Jung, you work on the report.

Manager Zo, you head to Vladivostok immediately.

VLADIVOSTOK, RUSSIA

ARIRANG RESTAURANT

Welcome.

Let me take your coat.

Is this your first time here?

Welcome.

Over here!

Hello.

You're here early.

No, I just got here.

Aren't you tired?

I'm fine.

They look quite wealthy, so take good care of them.

Welcome.

It's our first time here.

What's good here?

Are you from the South?

You don't refuse to serve South Koreans or anything, do you?

It's sad enough our country is divided.

Must we draw a line when serving a meal too?

Come here.

My friend here runs a large pharmaceutical business.

If I treat him well tonight,

I could make quite a bit of money.

CHAE SEON HWA

Ms. Chae Seon Hwa?

All right, then.

Today, I'll put my trust in you and go with whatever you recommend.

I'll ensure the warmest hospitality so your business can succeed.

FIVE MONTHS LATER

TUMEN RIVER FANGCHUAN REGION, NORTH KOREA-CHINA-RUSSIA BORDER AREA

If you don't stay on your toes, you'll end up like that too.

But isn't this Russian territory, not China?

China's Public Security Police are cracking down hard these days.

It's safer for someone from Russia to cross you over to China.

Don't make any trouble, and stay strong!

Boss! Bingdu.

New one. The best.

First, sample.

If you like it, our consul general will supply this one next time.

Get rid of the defective product.

Nice and clean.

PURITY 99%

It's grade A.

Test it on them first.

Stay the night.

Damn it.

Do you have any goddamn idea who you're messing with?

I'm Park Geon of the Ministry of State Security.

For illegally smuggling citizens and human trafficking…

I've come to arrest you.

I heard you were coming, Comrade Captain,

but I didn't think you'd take such immediate action.

I'm just here to do my job.

NORTH KOREAN CONSULATE GENERAL, VLADIVOSTOK

Unlock it.

Wow, my dear Comrade Park.

You just got here, and you're already getting results.

I was going to report to you after completing the investigation--

You came all the way from Pyongyang and went straight to work.

How could I just stand by, doing nothing?

Don't you think you've gone too far on one of our compatriots?

I will give you a chance for self-criticism now.

Write down everything you've ever done

since the day you were born.

Including every crime, even the ones you got away with.

You should answer if you understand.

For the sake of your family back in the fatherland.

I understand.

You're going to catch a cold.

Put some clothes on him.

Let's go eat.

ARIRANG RESTAURANT

Our Republic's art troupe is very popular.

Lumberjacks can work themselves to death here earning foreign currency,

but they can't compete with those female comrades.

Let's sit down.

Comrade Park.

Since you're in Vladivostok, you should try some vodka.

I'm good.

My dear Comrade Park…

You must have gone through many party loyalty tests.

To be honest,

I'm just nervous.

The legendary Comrade Park Geon, who is said to track down even the dead,

has come to keep an eye on me.

My mission is to investigate the disappearances of our people

in the border area caused by the Russian mafias.

Do you remember the Hero of the Republic, Pyo Jong Seong,

who worked at the Berlin branch ten years ago?

He was in State Security.

When Comrade Chairman Kim Jong Il passed away,

and the Berlin branch was rampant with betrayal,

he attempted to seek asylum.

During all that, his pregnant wife got shot and killed.

It was his attempt to defect that went sideways,

but he became obsessed with the idea that the Party had set him up.

He pushed in from Berlin to turn Pyongyang upside down.

He broke through everyone who tried to stop him.

He was a tough one.

In the end, he managed to come all the way here to Vladivostok.

And he met you, Comrade Consul General.

Even a Hero of the Republic

can vanish without a trace

beneath the frozen sea here in Vladivostok.

But a part of your story is different from what I know.

The Party confirmed the facts. What more do you need?

Listen carefully.

When traitors who flee the fatherland realize they have no way to survive,

they end up selling themselves.

And when they're caught,

they all say they were tricked by South Korean operatives

or got caught up after being lured by some foreigners.

Well, a broker like the one you arrested might show up every now and then.

But organized crimes like human trafficking is a myth.

You, Comrade Park,

are here to watch me.

That's the only explanation.

Have you done something to warrant being watched?

Must one do something to warrant being watched?

Excuse me.

Welcome.

Do you two know each other?

That's all of your food. Please enjoy.

Comrade Seon Hwa is the most popular female worker here.

It's impossible to catch her eye.

You two must have quite a story.

Somehow you'll come to mind

Even if you are a cold-hearted person

Memories of loving you so much

I won't be able to forget

At times, I'll miss you

When I look up at the round moon

Thinking of the vow we made that night

I'll regret the days gone by

Although we parted far, far away

Over the mountains

Although our two hearts

Parted across the seas

Sometimes you'll come to mind

Even if you are a cold-hearted person

Memories of loving you so much

I won't be able to forget

Park Geon speaking.

What?

What a coward.

He admitted his wrongdoings already.

Why kill himself after begging us to spare his family?

Guess he really wanted to save them.

He left a full statement before going.

About the money he got for handing people over at the border,

the amount, who he smuggled out…

It's all written there.

There's nothing about what happened after he got them across the border.

These guys just get them across the border,

take the money, and run.

What more would there be?

What about video records?

We weren't ordered to record him writing his statement,

so we only observed him.

Don't let yourself get sentimental.

Take swift measures so his family in Pyongyang can be investigated.

Since it ended up like this,

I guess you'll return to Pyongyang sooner than expected.

You went to all that trouble to record him,

but that reactionary caused a ruckus, and it ended up like this.

Still, it's been a while since you came out here.

Why don't you go sightseeing while we wrap things up here?

ARIRANG RESTAURANT

Don't take too long like last time.

Call me if anything happens.

It's cold, isn't it?

How have you been?

Signal normal.

You may proceed.

Your mother's medication must be running out.

You just need to make up your mind,

but we've been authorized to proceed with her cancer surgery in Seoul.

Bringing her over won't be easy,

but treason and whatnot doesn't matter when it comes to saving a person's life.

Chapter 1, Article 3 of the Constitution of the Republic of Korea.

"The territory of the Republic of Korea

shall consist of the Korean peninsula and its adjacent islands."

According to our Constitution,

you and your family are all our citizens.

If I decide today…

how many days at most

would it take to get me and my mother out?

REPORT ON CONSUL GENERAL HWANG CHI SUNG

ARIRANG RESTAURANT

Chae Seon Hwa's heart rate is getting unstable.

By any chance, have you ever

mentioned our meetings to anyone?

Maybe your family?

I would never.

Last time we spoke,

you weren't thinking of leaving.

Someone who knows me…

Someone who knows me deeply

came to the restaurant where I work

with the consul general today.

Who is it? Did he come to see you?

I don't know for sure, but…

Never mind.

I'm still sorting out my thoughts.

First, let's talk about what we agreed on.

PURITY 99%

This is the mafia boss

who is running the largest drug operation in the Vladivostok area.

Have you ever seen him?

The North Korean consul general is colluding with the Russian mafia

on something here.

We wouldn't even be able to look at someone this powerful.

Then where do you get the bingdu?

The manager gives it to us whenever we go out.

To prevent us from using it, she controls the dosage strictly.

How do you give it to the customers?

When waitresses serve customers outside,

we slip it into their drinks.

And then…

we sleep with them.

Then, when customers start asking for it,

we start selling it to them for money.

It's that easy?

It's never failed. Not once.

But…

if I don't know what's going on higher up,

will that ruin everything?

No.

Just telling me what you know truthfully,

like you have so far, is enough.

Now, shall we continue from where we left off last time?

Some of the comrades at the restaurant

got into trouble and were taken by State Security.

Apparently, they've been repatriated to the fatherland.

But even their families couldn't find out

whether they had returned or not.

And you know some of them?

There was a lady who came here before me.

But we lost contact after she was taken by State Security

for trying to defect to South Korea.

Could you tell me her name?

It's Kim…

Soo Rin.

By any chance…

Does her name ring a bell?

Do the State Security officers in charge of repatriating people

work under cover identities?

They're comrades from the consulate.

The person who came looking for you earlier…

Are they also from the consulate?

It's your birthday soon.

She mentioned a new person she met today,

but she didn't care to elaborate.

She could be making someone up just to raise her value.

We still don't know anything about Chae Seon Hwa, do we?

We don't really know much about each other either, do we?

Do you remember the first thing you told me

when I was assigned here, sir?

That you neither start a family of your own

nor keep close ties with the one you already have,

because you know your work could put them in danger.

What about it?

But you're so kind to Chae Seon Hwa.

Then should I torture her instead?

Her heart rate today was much more unstable than usual.

At that level, it should've registered as a deceptive response.

The strange part is she stayed right under the threshold.

Are you saying she's been trained to control her physiological responses?

It's a relief you can get your mom's meds, even if it's like this.

You're lucky to have met the Russian pharmaceutical businessman.

It's all thanks to you looking out for me, Comrade Manager.

I only made the introduction.

You did the rest.

It's a great gift you got here.

Don't send this to Pyongyang.

Just keep it for yourself.

Won't you be too tired for the night show?

It's my performance.

It doesn't matter whether I'm tired or not.

Can I have a word with Comrade Seon Hwa?

Her night show's on soon.

Don't be late.

Have you been well?

And your mother's illness?

You know how it is.

Is there anything

I can do to help?

I have to go perform now.

I looked for you for a long time.

Did you know I was here?

You know what kind of work I do.

Did you think I wouldn't find you

if you covered your tracks?

Why did you have to disappear like that?

You've seen what kind of work I do now.

Did you come all the way here for money?

You should go now.

It's cold out here.

GEUM TAE HYUK

Hey, how did those two meet?

Captain Park Geon was waiting for Chae Seon Hwa.

Out of all the men she's entertained,

there should be at least one we can frame as reactionary.

Find out all of her movements.

How do we explain to Captain Park about getting rid of the broker's body?

Tell the truth.

Pyongyang refused to take the body back.

Declaring the death of the likes of him

would only increase the crime rate in our Republic.

Park Geon may be here to keep tabs on us,

but he wouldn't dare disregard the Party's dignity.

The police contacted you for cooperation, right?

I need to confirm something for diplomatic purposes.

Which room did the North Korean who came today stay in?

The man at the hotel was from the North Korean consulate, right?

The North Korean consulate regularly tracks dispatched workers,

so it might be no big deal.

Earlier, Chae Seon Hwa said someone who knows her well came to see her.

So let's start by analyzing the North Korean restaurant data.

Okay. I'll get it ready, sir.

- Agent Im, hold on. - What is it?

Is this guy in our database?

I've never seen him before. Let me check.

Send it over to me.

Look.

The North Korean consul general drove him there himself,

but looks like they barely had time to eat and left in a hurry.

Then, they went straight back to the consulate.

Our database, the US, Japan…

There's no data on him anywhere.

But doesn't he seem like the person Chae Seon Hwa was talking about?

I'll check her movements.

See if there are traces of this new guy around the North Korean consulate

or staff's apartments.

Sir, I think you should see this first.

And here.

Early this morning, a car entered the consulate,

but not quite at the usual time.

And more importantly…

something was illegally taken out of the consulate.

Does this look connected to the guy who came to see Chae Seon Hwa?

Well,

at first glance, they seem to be romantic partners.

If they were, he would've waited inside, not out in the cold.

An ex.

This guy is trained.

He's on perimeter alert when he moves with the consul general

and he's minimizing exposure when meeting with Chae Seon Hwa.

I'm worried about her.

Here, look at the footage from the camera across the street.

That's the consulate employee we saw at the hotel, isn't it?

Double surveillance.

This man who was on perimeter alert is losing control here.

He's losing his composure.

She might've already been exposed.

4 MONTHS EARLIER

Seon Hwa, don't be startled.

We don't mean any harm.

Please have a seat first.

You know me.

If you're really uneasy, you can just leave.

But before that,

I brought some medicine for your mother.

Are you…

from the National Intelligence Service?

If you're worried about your safety,

we guarantee you that we'll keep you safe.

The Party already knows I'm here.

So how can you guarantee my safety?

If you're in danger, we're in danger too.

I promise.

I'm here to help you.

Let's get her out before it gets more dangerous.

If we push through, it could get dangerous for all of us.

We haven't verified her testimony, and we don't have approval.

Then should we abandon her?

We're not out here volunteering at a refugee camp.

What if she's just telling us what we want to hear?

There's no guarantee she's not conning us.

You've watched her with me for over four months.

Sir.

Is this because of Kim Soo Rin?

She's my informant.

I make the call.

You don't even smoke.

And you can't fall asleep.

Is something troubling you?

It's nothing.

Don't keep it all bottled up.

If there's something you want to do, do it.

From what I've seen these past few months,

that Russian businessman seems very fond of you.

A friend of mine who was a manager in Cambodia had an employee

fall for a customer and run off with him.

Even if that happens…

there are ways for cadres like us to move on without getting hurt too badly.

So don't worry about me or anyone else.

Do what you need to survive.

Don't miss your chance and regret it like I did.

VOICE RECORDINGS

This is Chae Seon Hwa singing to Park Geon as a birthday present.

This is really it?

Just don't delete it like last time.

That wasn't on purpose--

Please shut up.

Oh, come on.

One, two, three, four.

Somehow you'll come to mind

Even if you are a cold-hearted person

Memories of loving you so much

I won't be able to forget

At times, I'll miss you

When I look up at the round moon

Thinking of the vow we made that night

I'll regret the days gone by

REPORT ON CONSUL GENERAL HWANG CHI SUNG

Although we…

You're going to get hurt, Comrade Captain.

It's us.

Calm down.

Now why did you drink so much by yourself?

Comrade Consul General is looking for you urgently.

I mean, look.

Why didn't you tell me the two of you had been engaged?

I almost got the wrong idea.

I thought you came all the way here because of me,

but it was actually to find Comrade Seon Hwa.

Let me apologize.

No need for an apology.

Did I get the wrong idea again?

No matter how long and hard I thought,

I just couldn't figure out what I'd done to have you on my back.

When I realized this was why you came, it all just clicked.

Anyway, let's take a look.

For the past month, this Russian merchant

has been calling Comrade Chae to the same room at least once a week.

And each time, those two also used the room right next door.

Why do you think she's bowing to an empty room?

Well, I suppose we can let that pass.

But watch carefully now.

What's interesting about this is

that those two rooms are connected.

Now, a different hotel from two months ago.

The guests of both rooms came and went at different times,

but they used connecting rooms on the same day.

This was three months ago.

Each time, it's a different hotel, but it's always the same situation.

Why are you showing me this?

Come on.

Isn't this why you're here?

Whether you knew about it or not, it's not looking good for you either way.

Chae Seon Hwa has been recruited by the South.

Yes, sir.

A vehicle left the North Korean consulate just now.

It looks like they're raiding the restaurant staff quarters.

Why would they do that at this hour?

Where are you, sir?

I'm heading to the site. Keep an eye on things for me.

This isn't our job.

Our job is to collect intel, conduct surveillance, report--

What on earth did you do?

You tell me.

What did I do?

Who are they?

You can hide things from the others,

but I can only help if you don't hide anything from me.

You know what happens if you get framed as a reactionary in contact with spies--

Is this why you came to find me?

State Security has figured it all out.

Have you been in contact with the South Koreans?

Once the investigation starts,

you won't be able to hold out.

Admit that you were approached by them.

Say you were gathering intel for me.

Over here.

I found a stash of dollars in Comrade Seon Hwa's room.

Search thoroughly. Don't miss a thing!

- Say the dollars are-- - You haven't changed a bit.

You've worked so diligently all your life, Comrade Seon Hwa.

Twenty-eight years… Brief in some respects, long in others.

Thank you for such a truthful confession.

Comrade Seon Hwa must be

deeply disappointed with you, Comrade Park.

Your father was caught smuggling from China,

trying to cover your mother's cancer treatment.

Because of this, you even had to drop out of Pyongyang University of Music.

You came all the way here to earn foreign currency

and went through so much trouble.

It's only natural that you would've expected

Comrade Park to help take care of this.

But instead of covering up the mistakes of those who would have been his in-laws,

he personally took charge of the investigation.

That's the problem with people who put work first.

I would have lost all affection too.

Everything here is true, isn't it?

Yes, it's all true.

Since you only wrote down the truth…

you can write it out again exactly the same, right?

Word for word.

Your memories from when you were three are correct.

The ones from 13 years ago are correct too.

And from three years ago as well.

So how can you possibly be wrong about your memories from three days ago?

Pardon?

The number of customers who came to the restaurant where you work

doesn't add up.

The number of times you went to the toilet is also off.

Comrade Consul General.

Could I have some water, please?

Why are your lips so parched, like someone who's lying?

Water can wait.

Write it out again truthfully.

Water…

Water, please…

I guess it can't be helped.

Serve her some water.

Take a deep breath

and hold it.

To be handled by the top expert of our Republic…

What an honor for our Comrade Seon Hwa.

So sweet, the two of you.

You got an expensive gift, huh?

They might even fit me.

You left out the story

of the South Korean operative who gave you these.

Start the engine.

As I said,

the money she received from the South Koreans as recruitment funds

was going to be sent to Pyongyang

as loyalty funds through me.

It simply wasn't reported because it was a secret operation.

This doesn't warrant her immediate repatriation.

A secret operation the consul general was never made aware of?

Why, I've never heard of such a thing.

Is this because of my mission?

Isn't your mission to investigate the disappearance of our people?

Rules are rules. What can we do?

Let me escort you myself.

Port inspection won't go smoothly if an unfamiliar face shows up.

Even if they take you to Pyongyang, say you gave false testimony.

Just say what's written here.

I'll do whatever it takes to find the South Korean operative and save you.

I will not let you down again.

There's no need for us to die together.

Those who can live should live.

Hey!

Bring me everything you have on the South Korean operatives.

What, are you going to catch some South Korean spies

and hand them over to overturn her treason charge?

Of all suspected South Korean undercover operations offices,

this one's the shadiest.

About four months ago, the owner changed.

The new one looks like

the guest who stayed in the room next door to Chae Seon Hwa's--

Why didn't you report that?

Didn't you come knowing all of this already?

You seemed to know things even we weren't aware of, like the broker case, so…

Let's move.

There was no direct order from the consul general.

We can't move without it.

What if we leave our posts and something happens at the consulate?

That's right.

We should stick to our own jobs.

Clear!

When we get to Rajin Port,

will I stand trial first?

The Party will proceed according to whatever the standard proceeding is.

VLADIVOSTOK PORT

She's our top foreign currency earner.

I'm returning the favor for handling the broker's body.

Did you have to kill the broker?

What's going on?

Pyongyang sent me a nuisance to keep tabs on me.

But don't worry.

I'll kill him and send him back soon.

Live fiercely!

MANAGER ZO

KOREA TRADING COMPANY

CONSUL GENERAL HWANG CHI SUNG'S TRANSACTIONS WITH RUSSIAN MAFIA…

PHOTOGRAPHIC EVIDENCE

It's bulletproof.

This item is going all the way to Moscow.

You really think I wouldn't have planned for that?

I've come to meet your superior.

AGENT IM: CALL ME

If you want to save her, get over here immediately.

At least tell me who I'm talking to.

An innocent person has been repatriated because of you people.

You don't need to know who I am.

Just know that I'll break one bone every minute until you get here.

You're Chae Seon Hwa's lover, aren't you?

I'm currently at the place where Seon Hwa is being held.

Don't try to fuck with me.

I have evidence that your consul general handed Seon Hwa over to the Russians.

The person you're with right now will confirm it for you.

It's one bone per minute.

MANAGER ZO

This is the final location where Chae Seon Hwa was taken.

Try not to make a mess.

It's not as if an employee you managed

fell in love with a customer and ran off.

She colluded with a reactionary spy.

Your son.

He's starting at Kim Il Sung University soon, no?

Captain Park Geon

told Chae Seon Hwa he could make it look like

they'd been working together.

I heard it with my own ears.

Why didn't you report it sooner?

Park Geon caught on

and threatened me.

He told me to keep my mouth shut since it was State Security business.

What about the South Korean spy?

Pardon?

"Pardon"?

Chae Seon Hwa has been secretly meeting and colluding with

a South Korean spy, and…

Loyalty funds.

I was able to confirm that Park Geon was using this

to siphon off money received from South Korea,

claiming it was "loyalty funds".

Park Geon and Chae Seon Hwa

are traitors to the Republic!

All right, applause.

Now that we've secured the testimony,

let's go catch Park Geon, that traitor.

Keep that up, and you'll actually end up dead.

If I die, I'll die by my own hand!

Anyone who touches me

dies with me.

Park Geon is headed to the auction site.

Hey, you…

You should've stopped him!

What's going on?

What?

The guy from Pyongyang who's been keeping tabs on me

is headed there looking for the woman I handed over.

Just him?

Looks like he's already here.

Kill him, sell his organs. I don't care.

Do whatever you want with him.

I'll be there as soon as possible.

How did that bastard get there already?

I'm looking for the North Korean woman who just got here.

Stop!

Stop!

Stay calm!

It's no big deal!

What's your goal here?

Why are you going to such lengths to find Seon Hwa?

Because she's my HUMINT.

If it weren't for you bastards, she wouldn't be going through this hell.

You're the ones who sold her to the Russians.

I'm the one trying to rescue her.

Then shoot me and go find her.

Are you Korean?

North Korean?

Let's stay sharp and get out of here.

Everybody, hide!

Hide!

Quick, behind the cars!

Park Geon!

You fucking son of a bitch!

Do you have any idea what damage you've just done to our Republic?

You bastard!

So you've really teamed up with the Southern puppet regime!

Now that the North and South have met like this,

we should hang the Korean Unification flag!

Park Geon, you damn traitor!

Come out now so we can end this!

I need to at least take your head to the Moscow mafia bastards

to keep the rest alive!

Those who can live should live!

Get down!

Take cover!

No!

No!

Let go of me!

No!

Please. Please…

Save him, please!

Save him!

Please…

Help him!

No, don't…

No!

Damn it.

No!

Everyone's starving to death anyway.

What the hell are we doing?

They're all dying because of assholes like you,

goddamn communist bastards!

No, it can't be…

This Russian organization traded victims like this for profit.

They carried out secondary human trafficking,

supplied pornography through legalized websites,

and forced women into prostitution and drug distribution.

Using these female victims,

they earned more than a million dollars each month.

So you were unable to identify

the domestic distribution route of North Korean narcotics,

which is what we actually wanted.

Manager Zo, records indicate that you blamed yourself

for the death of your informant during the Mahador operation

and showed signs of depression.

Did your personal feelings affect any of your decisions?

That doesn't seem like a question he can answer himself.

You were his partner.

How did he seem, Agent Im?

His personal feelings never got in the way of our operations.

What about Chae Seon Hwa?

I'm sorry?

What I want to know is

why Chae Seon Hwa made such a decision

when we went as far as to save her life.

What other choice did she have?

We got Chae Seon Hwa to Japan.

While we questioned her at our embassy,

we hired a broker to get her mother out of North Korea.

DEATH CERTIFICATE

But she died of cardiac arrest en route.

Even though Chae Seon Hwa lost everything,

she never asked us for any compensation.

She simply said…

I'd like to start over…

where no one knows me.

Sir.

Park Geon said something to you right before he died.

Did he ask you to get Chae Seon Hwa out?

No.

He asked if there was any way he could live.

He said he wanted to live.
