What if we're wrong about this?

Oh, my back.

- Hello, sir.
- Hello, sir.

I told you it was fresh.

Of course. It's not our first rodeo.

Don't just stand there. Get to work.

- Sorry.
- Yes, sir.

- Hold on.
- You should be more careful.

You.

- You'd better stay focused.
- I'm sorry.

Gosh, you should be more careful.

Pick up every fish.
Don't leave a single one behind.

- Yes, sir.
- Yes, sir.

Hello? No, there's no problem.

What's this?

I only brought top-shelf drugs this time.

It really is.

Good.

What are you doing right now?

- Are you crazy?
- Mr. Kim.

Yes, he is. I bet he's going crazy.

How could he not go crazy?

Gosh. Nice.

You brought innocent
civilians into a crime.

Wouldn't that drive you crazy?

Who is this jerk?

Right, Hyun Jong?

Don't be flustered. Step aside.

(Seoul Central District
Prosecutors' Office Situation Room)

Let's begin.

(Gimsan, Pyeongtaek)

- Okay.
- We're moving in.

(Episode 7)

Boys, escort Mr. Prosecutor here.

Come on, guys.
Let's not make this difficult.

Stay back.

You little...

- Go!
- Get them!

Come on!

- Darn it!
- Come on, seriously.

- Come here.
- Darn it.

- Get in the car.
- Move it!

Come on!

Well done, Prosecutor Choi.
I'll see you in Seoul.

Hey, Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo.

Everything's been taken care of here.
How about you?

Hey, don't frown. Be happy!

- Move it!
- We're wrapping up too.

Thank you for everything, sir.

- Okay.
- Let's go!

It's all been sorted out, Chief.

I will begin interrogating
Moon Gu Jun right away.

I believe I gave you more than enough time.

Fine.

We found something interesting.

Here.

(Moon Gu Jun, leader of Yuchae Gang)

While investigating the
open bidding case in Gimsan...

on top of the illegal casino...

as well as the human trafficking
and drug cases,

we discovered that you
embezzled 3.8 billion won...

through bid-rigging.

The problem is,
the mayor, police chief, and assemblyman...

saw that document.
These three musketeers...

were very angry that you
scooped up all the money.

Gosh, I feel bad for you.

You'll take the fall
for everything once again.

Do you want to keep pleading the Fifth?

Okay.

Then keep your lips sealed...

so you can protect
those high-ranking officials...

and rot in prison all alone for
the rest of your life, okay?

Thanks.

Wait.

I'll talk.

Yes!

- Sung Ho.
- Yes, sir.

- Prepare for a press conference.
- Yes, sir.

(Gangwon District Prosecutors' Office,
Gimsan Branch Office)

(SBC, Press)

(Prosecution Service)

(Upholding Justice for the
Happiness of the People)

- Oh, there he is.
- He's here.

I am Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo
at the Gimsan Branch Office.

I will now begin the press briefing
on the Yuchae Gang,

a criminal organization in Gimsan.

Late last night,
the Gimsan Branch Office...

arrested all members of a
criminal organization...

specialized in drug and
human trafficking...

under the leadership...

of the Seoul Central District
Prosecutors' Office.

This case began...

with an illegal casino in Gimsan...

run by the Yuchae Gang.

Initially, we were only
after the Yuchae Gang.

But during our investigation,
we discovered...

the Yuchae Gang's ties
with a criminal organization...

specialized in drug and human trafficking.

We also discovered that the Yuchae Gang...

had close relationships with
some local government officials,

so we plan to summon and
question everyone involved.

So far, we've confirmed that
these government officials had...

Prosecutor Kim.

Please excuse me for a moment.

Chief Jeon wants to
speak with you urgently.

Hello, sir.

Pardon me? What do you mean?

Okay.

(Prosecution Service)

My apologies. Let's continue.

So far, we've confirmed
the involvement of...

Police Chief Jang Hae Jin...

- What?
- Jang Hae Jin?

And...

Kim Sang Tae, the mayor of Gimsan.

- What?
- The mayor too?

That's it. Thank you.

What?

- Does that mean...
- A question, please.

What? What about Assemblyman Gu?

- Was there anyone else?
- Did they admit to it?

Under the leadership of the
Central District Prosecutors' Office,

- the Anti-Corruption Unit...
- Lower the volume.

- Yes, sir.
- arrested a drug cartel...

I nearly lost everything
because of that kid.

You saved me, sir. Thank you so much.

- Assemblyman Gu.
- Yes, sir.

Are you confident that
you'll win the next election?

For my constituency,
I am certain that I will win...

as long as I'm nominated.

Right, my question is...

Are you confident that
you will be nominated?

Sir!

Please help me just once more.

I will devote my life
wholly to serving you, sir.

You'll devote your life?

You see, people vote for us because
they can't stand the Daehan Party,

not because they like us.

They hate the robbers so much
that they'd rather vote for swindlers.

- Do you understand?
- Yes, sir.

You'd better be very careful from now on.

Yes, sir. I will heed your advice.

You can go now.

- Director Han.
- Yes, sir.

What was his name again?

Do you mean Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo, sir?

That's right, Kim Hee Woo.

Kim Seok Hoon was right.

That kid is really something.

Would you like me
to arrange a meeting, sir?

Yes.

As soon as he arrives in Seoul.

- Understood, sir.
- Good.

Chief.

Give me a reason I can understand.

Why did you tell me
to leave Assemblyman Gu out?

(Chief Jeon Seok Kyu)

Chief.

Deputy Chief Kim Seok Hoon called me...

and said we'd have to leave his name out...

if we wanted to return to Seoul.

Does that answer your question?

- Yes, sir.
- Then get back to work.

- Be available this evening.
- Yes, sir.

Kim Seok Hoon got
Gu Wook Chung out of this?

But they're not affiliated in any way.

Even if you found my name on their ledger,

you can't get me locked up.

Don't you know who's got my back?

I see.

The person who's got his back.

It must be Cho Tae Sub.

Please help me, sir!

Gu Wook Chung begged Cho Tae Sub for help.

So now, Cho Tae Sub has leverage over Gu.

But so do I.

I may be able to use it as a weapon
when I strike at Cho Tae Sub.

- I told you about it.
- Yes, it's delicious.

Investigator Oh.

Could you bring Lee Yeon Seok
to the interview room?

Sure.

Wait. What are you doing this evening?

Why?

The past few days have
been quite stressful.

Why don't we have dinner together?
With Chief Jeon too.

I was worried for a second.

I must decline.

I'd like to go home
at a decent time for once.

- I see. You want to go home.
- I do.

- Then you should.
- I will.

Hey, how are you feeling?

I'm still aching all over.

Let's see. Lee Yeon Seok. Age 21.

- You didn't go to high school.
- That's not true.

- What?
- I dropped out of high school.

- It's the same thing.
- No, it's different.

Fine. You dropped out of high school.

You worked as an enforcer
to pay your mother's hospital bills?

I'm a freelancer.

What? Sorry.

- A freelancer?
- Yes.

Okay, you're a freelancer.

That's cool.

Hey, Sang Man. It's me.

Call Gimsan Hospital now...

and pay Ms. Kim Jung Ok's bills in full.

Also, have them transfer her
to Chunha Hospital in Seoul.

I don't care how much it costs.

Make sure she gets
the best treatment possible. All right.

- I'm paying you up front.
- Sorry?

You're a young first-time offender,
so you'll be released on probation.

Move to Seoul
as soon as your trial is over.

And...

call this number. Get a job and study.

- And take good care of your mother.
- Wait.

What are you talking about?

You said you were a freelancer.

I want to hire you. Are you in or not?

I'm in.

Good.

Then I'll see you later.

Okay.

- No sign of him yet?
- No, sir.

- He hasn't even called?
- Should I try calling him?

No, don't bother.

Why do you think Kim Seok Hoon
is being like this?

I'd say he's waging a silent protest.

- Against me?
- Yes.

As you know, the periodic
personnel reshuffle is coming up.

He agreed to leave Assemblyman Gu
out without complaint.

So?

You haven't promised him anything yet.

His ultimate goal...

is the Prosecutor General title.

If he's not promoted this time,
his plan won't work.

He might think that
he'd never get another chance.

He wants me to lay a stepping stone
to the Prosecutor General position.

Correct. He'll want to become...

the head of the
Central District Prosecutors' Office.

I was going to time it with
the presidential election.

He wants to cut a deal with me?

Yes.

So what do you think?

As you know,

Deputy Chief Kim has never
asked you for favours.

- Right.
- But this time, it'll be different.

I suggest you offer him a carrot first.

Make him the chief of the
Central District Prosecutors' Office...

and give him more power
so I can keep control over the prosecution?

Correct.

Call him.

Do you know how long I've
been working as a prosecutor?

It's been 22 years.

As you all know,

I was ousted and sent here
for refusing to follow unfair orders.

They wanted me...

to end my career here in Gimsan.

So I decided to gamble.

"Gamble"?

I wanted to trust what I saw in your eyes.

I will send you to Seoul.

You have no good reason.
But you came to take me to Seoul?

Reason? I'll find you one.

Tell me why I should do that?

Because you need power to realize justice.

I could tell that you were different
from other rookie prosecutors.

I have yet to come across a rookie...

who is as gutsy and arrogant as you are.

So I thought...

you could be my ticket back to Seoul.

And I was right.

I trust you now.

- Thank you, sir.
- No, I'll be honest.

I don't want to stop here.

I'll think of you as my last chance,

and this darn world where the wicked
prosper and the righteous suffer...

I want to change this world.

All right. Now, tell me your story.

Now that we're in the same boat,
I need to know where you're headed.

Yes, of course.

You graduated first from
the training institute.

What are you doing in Gimsan?

I came here because I needed you.

Me? For what?

You're not afraid of those with power.

Well, you may fear them.

But you don't avoid dealing with them.

I firmly believe that the
prosecution needs someone like you.

And eventually,

you should become the Prosecutor General.

What? Prosecutor General?

Yes. The Prosecutor General
of the Republic of Korea.

What? You're crazy.

I...

would like to help you
so you can spread your wings.

Goodness. Am I drunk already?

What this kid is saying is
getting my heart excited.

That's good.

Let me pour you one, sir.

Sir, Deputy Chief Kim is here.

My apologies, sir. I unexpectedly
got called into a meeting.

When you gamble, you always
need time to think. Am I wrong?

I won't deny it.

Okay. Tell me what you're thinking.

I'd like to be promoted to
Chief of the Central District Office.

Very interesting.

Director Han, your prediction was on point.

The Prosecutor General
is on his way here now.

How about we make it happen
in the upcoming reshuffle?

Thank you, sir.

You can thank me...

when you're under consideration
to be the next Prosecutor General.

I will do my very best
so I won't let you down, sir.

Good.

Doesn't Kim Seok Hoon irk you?

He's a prosecutor, but he's always
trying to please the higher-ups.

Yes.

I do find him irksome.

However, I'm in no position
to criticize him now.

Just so I can return to Seoul,

I let Gu Wook Chung go
knowing he's a total scumbag.

We had no choice.

It will take some time,

but we will get Gu Wook Chung
no matter what.

For now,

let's just think that he
was our ticket to Seoul.

Once the train arrives at the destination,

the ticket should be tossed.

Yes, you're right.

Here.

By the way, are you sure you're
not on Kim Seok Hoon's side?

No, sir. I am on your side.

Under him, a smooth ride is guaranteed.

Why did you choose a clunker like me?

I don't want...

to become a dog that wags its tail
in front of those with power.

Such a man should never
become a prosecutor to begin with.

Agreed.

Kim Seok Hoon. We must take him down.

But how?

He's well-connected with
politicians and business moguls.

And I bet he has many supporters
within the prosecution as well.

Correct.

That's why I think we should
target Jang Il Hyun first.

Jang Il Hyun?

He's ambitious...

and clever. On top of that,
he's from a good family.

At the moment,

he's like Kim Seok Hoon's
henchman within the prosecution.

You're right.

Maybe we shouldn't go
after the head right away.

It's probably not a bad idea
to cut off the limbs first.

All right, then. Let's start with him.

I will open the door
for you when you take...

your first step into the
Prosecutor General's office.

- Welcome.
- Thank you.

You're back in Seoul after so long.

Thanks to you, I can be in Seoul again.

Congratulations on your promotion, sir.

My goodness. Thank you.

This is my first week here,
so I'm still all over the place.

That said,

go to Team Five and get accustomed
to how things are done here.

I'll see how things go and move you
to an appropriate position.

I'm honoured that I can
work in Seoul again.

I'll do my best, sir.

Good. Let's all work hard.

Yes, sir.

(Chief Kim Seok Hoon,
Central District Prosecutors' Office)

Hey, brother.

Nice catch. Welcome to Seoul.

Is this my welcome gift?
This just won't cut it.

Come on. Only the best things for you.

Check where the beans are from.

It was made with top-notch
Colombian coffee beans.

Top-notch, my foot. It's only 40 percent.

Still, they're Colombian beans.

Do you have money invested in stocks?

If you own Mirae Electronics' stock,
sell it.

What?

The CEO, Jeon Il Bo. We got him.

I gifted him with a nice pair of handcuffs.

Right, I heard.

I knew you'd pull it off.

With the taxpayers' hard-earned money,

the CEO's son bought a car
for 1.3 billion won.

His wife went on shopping sprees abroad
and racked up...

three billion won
on the corporate card.

There's more.
He embezzled 14 billion won...

as "commissions" from the
company's dummy subsidiaries.

Since he loves free money,

I caught him so he can
eat free food in jail.

Did the higher-ups not say anything?

They sure did. I thought they were rapping
when they were cursing.

Blah, blah, blah.

Well, you did the right thing
by putting him behind bars.

But I'm worried about you.

Right? I don't blame you.

But easy is boring.

"Life should be fun."
That's my motto, you know?

You're so tough.

(Chief Kim Seok Hoon)

Who is it?

It's Chief Kim Seok Hoon.

What does he need?

No idea. He wants me
to meet him in his office.

My goodness.
You hang out with Chief Kim now?

- Anyway, I'll see you later.
- Okay.

Hey, let's meet up
with Kyu Ri together soon.

Okay, sounds good.

Bye.

You see, I was torn about you.

But you took good care
of the case in Gimsan...

and have proven yourself.

So I thought about giving you
an important position,

but I want to keep you under
Jeon Seok Kyu's management for now.

That's fine with me, sir.

Find out the real reason he came to me...

and what he's thinking.

Jeon Seok Kyu.

He's not the type to bow
his head that easily.

You know that I trust you, right?

Yes, sir.

As for the corruption cases...

involving the mayor of Gimsan
and the police chief,

you're getting full credit,
not Jeon Seok Kyu.

It'll look great on a
rookie prosecutor's resume.

Thank you, sir.

By the way,
what do you think of Ji Sung Ho?

Do you think he's a keeper?

I don't know him that well yet,

but he's easygoing and diligent.

I see.

You can go now.

Yes, sir.

Bye.

He doesn't trust Jeon Seok Kyu,

yet he trusts me?

Kim Seok Hoon is very thorough,
and he doesn't trust people easily.

To him, his own success
is more important...

than his daughter's happiness.

And a man like that trusts me?

Sung Ho, let's go for lunch.

Sure.

Hey, did you meet your friend?

Yes.

Join us for lunch.

Please go ahead.
I have to finish up some stuff.

I'll join you as soon as I'm done.

Okay, hurry.

Will do.

There are so many good restaurants
in Seoul that I can't choose.

How about some spicy fish stew, sir?

Are you hungover?

No, I'm just craving some spicy soup.

- Call Hee Woo.
- Okay.

- Sir!
- Hey, that was quick.

How about some spicy fish stew?

Sir, I need to talk to you about something.

- What's this?
- It's a wiretap detector.

- What?
- What about it?

There's a wiretap in our office.

I had a weird feeling, so I turned it on.

It detected a wiretap near your desk.

- Are you sure about this?
- Yes.

Who planted the wiretap?

Kim Seok Hoon?

Right. He's a doubting Thomas,
so I'm not surprised.

He won't trust me easily.

Is there no getting out
once you're in the doghouse with him?

Gosh, he really gives me the creeps.

At least we know now, and I'd say...

- this is actually a good thing.
- It's a good thing?

- We'll use it to our advantage.
- We'll use it?

I'm against it.

We have the best technology.

Why work with Mirae Electronics'
semiconductor department?

Mirae Motors...

has been using their
technology for a long time...

and wants to keep it that way.

But things have changed.

Mirae Motors now belongs to Chunha.

We must make it clear to them...

that they're no longer Mirae's subsidiary.

Are you worried about something?

When you run a business,

you have many things and
people to worry about.

Is it about Assemblyman Cho Tae Sub?

He was the one who made you
acquire Mirae Motors.

Dad, I understand
they're used to the old ways,

but change is inevitable.

When it comes to business,
a cool head is key.

You're the one who taught me that.

How would you go about it?

So that neither party gets upset.

Well, let me think.

Since this is a high-tech industry,

I would select the subcontractor
by comparing conclusive data,

safety, and efficiency.

I would try to be fair.

In that case, nobody would oppose.

You're right.

We're the leading company
in the semiconductor business.

Exactly.

Whether it's Assemblyman Cho,
who's always defending Mirae Electronics,

or Sung Jun, who's all about custom...

They both know what's good.

I know you can persuade them.

You're absolutely right.
I'll talk to Sung Jun again.

Hee A. How about you
take a step back from researching...

and take up a position in management?

You saw what happened
to the family of Jeil Group.

The siblings became rivals and
started taking from one another.

Now they are enemies.

I don't want that to happen to us.

I was the one who changed
their kids' diapers.

I even fed them too.

I hope to see them
get married as their aunt.

- Hee A.
- I want to continue...

helping you from the sidelines...

and live doing what I want.

Gosh, you stubborn girl.

Goodness.

- Great job today!
- Goodnight.

Nice job, everyone.

- Thank you.
- Good work.

- Thank you for today.
- Good job.

- I can't thank you enough.
- It's my pleasure.

- You?
- What?

Do you two know each other?

Yes, we're friends.

The restaurant owners are your parents?

- What are the odds?
- Why are you here?

A colleague of mine is
going on maternity leave,

so I'm taking over her column.

We introduce good restaurants.

Gosh, what an honour that my
parents' restaurant will be featured.

The Internet is raving about
how great the food is here.

It's impossible to hide the truth.

Hee Woo.
Persuade Ms. Kim to stay for a meal.

She doesn't even have time
to eat because of work.

Right, you should eat before you go.

- Shall I do that then?
- Yeon Seok. Let's set the table.

Wait. Everybody freeze.

Your friend is here,
so let's close for the night...

and eat a ton of jjimdak.

Good idea. We never cooked for him
since he came back to Seoul.

He's been tied up at work.

That's perfect, I called a few others too.

- You did?
- What?

Is it okay that I join?

Of course. You know them too.

Let's put our stomachs to the test
and see how much jjimdak we can eat.

Call everyone over.

Time to cook six chickens, Yeon Seok.

- Hello. Mr. Woo joined us too.
- Mr. Woo.

- Hello.
- Goodness. Hello, Mr. Woo.

- Hello, sir.
- The legend himself.

- Yes, hello.
- Please take a seat here.

- Hello.
- Yes, hi.

- Hello, Mr. Kim.
- Hi!

- Welcome.
- It's nice to meet you.

- Please enjoy.
- This is delicious, Mr. Kim

- I made this, Mr. Woo.
- Great job.

Incoming. Try this too.

- My gosh.
- Impressive.

This is my mother's special dish.

Mr. Woo.

- Oh, my.
- Amazing.

- It's looking good.
- Look at that.

- The first bite goes to Mr. Woo.
- Thank you.

It looks great.

It tastes light but savoury.

Goodness, check out the cheese.

My gosh. I just wrapped
the soft meat with cheese.

The taste is out of this world.

- It's delicious, right?
- Yes!

Hello?

I see, okay. I'll hurry back in.

What's wrong? Do you need to leave?

This truly is a must-eat restaurant.

I was so busy eating
that I didn't notice the time.

- I'll have to get back to work now.
- Really?

- Gosh, what a shame.
- Goodbye then.

- I'll see you next time.
- Yes. Goodbye, everyone.

Bye.

She looks familiar.

- We went to the same cram school.
- The hooligan?

She must've studied hard.

Apparently, Hee Woo was
the one who tutored her.

Hey, Sang Man. Just eat the chicken.

It's delicious.

You must have a knack for coaching people.

Not only did you take care
of Sang Man and Yeon Seok,

but you helped that friend too?

I didn't take care of them.
They did well on their own.

Hee Woo's love for humanity
is one of a kind.

That's true.

Let's toast to celebrate
Hee Woo's return to Seoul.

- I was waiting for this!
- No, please don't.

- Come on, everyone.
- Glasses up!

Follow my lead, everyone.

When I give the sign,
everyone say, "Hee Woo".

Glasses in.

- Hee Woo!
- Hee Woo!

- Glasses out.
- Hee Woo!

Hey, stop.

Goodness.

My gosh, you're in great shape.

Good job.

Let's go.

Thank you.

How's the studying going?

It's difficult but Sang Man
is a good teacher.

Do you think you can get into college?

I'll give it my best shot.

Sang Man is your direct superior.

- Please take good care of him.
- I will.

Hey, can you beat me in a fight now?

You punk, why aren't you answering?

Why not? Tell me.

That's fine. You can beat me.

- You have classes, right?
- Yes.

Let's head back.

Look into past cold cases
when you find the time.

Yes, sir. I was planning to
go over the case reports.

We can't afford to sit around
like we did back in Gimsan.

If another issue comes up,
it'll be really hectic.

Here's the case file.

I'll head out for a bit
due to a prior engagement.

- Go on then.
- Yes, sir.

We're good?

I didn't notice anything out of
the ordinary with Chief Jeon yet.

What does he normally do in the office?

Besides reading the
newspaper and watching TV,

he looks into cold cases.

There was a time when conglomerates
and gangsters called him Tiger.

We can't let our guards down
just because we've caged him.

I'm sure he had a lot of time
to reflect back in Gimsan.

He even gave me the advice
to always look the other way...

even if I witness someone
abusing their power.

Did he? He sure changed a lot.

I'm glad to hear that.

Let's keep an eye on him
a little longer until we're certain.

Understood, sir.

Another thing.
Make sure you're free this evening.

Chief Jang will fill you in on the details.

Yes, sir.

(Chief Prosecutor Kim Seok Hoon)

- You're here.
- Hello, sir.

It looks like Seoul is treating you well.

It's all thanks to you, sir.

Always such a sweet talker.

You'll have to be on your toes today.

Pardon? Why?

You have yet to meet the higher-ups
from our secret club, right?

- Not yet, sir.
- We have a club meeting tonight.

Chief Prosecutor Kim specifically
asked for you to join.

You should be honoured.

I'll finally get to see the faces
of the oh-so-special club members.

I'm honoured, sir. Thank you.

All right, I'll see you later.

Yes, sir.

Right then.
We'll greet our seniors from here.

This is our job as the juniors.

They're all big shots, so stay alert.

Yes, sir. I'll keep that in mind.

Here they come.

Current and former ministers, assemblymen,

the Prosecutor General,
and even the Chief Justice.

This is where every
office-holder comes together.

- Hello, sir.
- Good evening, sir.

- Keep up the good work.
- Yes, sir.

It's been a while, sir.

- Appreciate it.
- It's my pleasure, sir.

- Doing well, Mr. Cho.
- Thank you.

- Thanks.
- No problem, sir.

- Welcome, sir.
- Good evening.

Good work, boys.

I appreciate the hard work.

- Don't disappoint me today.
- I won't.

- Keep it up.
- Yes, sir.

Hi, there.

It's been over 30 minutes.

But not a single person is eating.

They're all waiting for one person.

The only person who has the power...

to keep these big shots waiting.

When will the inspection be done?

Within this month, sir.

Cho Tae Sub.

- Hello, sir.
- Hello, sir.

Appreciate it, boys.

It's nice to meet you.

Hello, everyone.

Sit down. There's no need for formalities.

I told you to start the meal without me.

Let's enjoy our dinner then.

He's training them.

In order to establish himself
as the leader of this group,

he made all these powerful men...

wait for 30 minutes.

Hey, Hee Woo.

Hurry over.

Hee Woo.

- Yes?
- After this meal is over,

you'll have a private meeting
with Assemblyman Cho.

A private meeting?

That's right. It's our club's tradition.

The youngest member has a meeting
with the club's president.

I'm deeply honoured.

Hey, she's here. Go on out.

I'll be waiting in the car. Take your time.

- Yes, sir.
- Don't be nervous, kiddo.

I'll be back.

He's waiting for you.

Follow me.

It's been a while.

It's been a few years,

but do you remember that
I said I'd keep our promise?

Did I make some kind of promise with you?

Well,

that's a question for you to solve.

You'll find out in due time.

We're running late. Let's go.

Sir, Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo is here.

Let him in.

- Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo, sir.
- My name is Cho Tae Sub.

So this is how we meet, Mr. Kim.

What a pleasure. Take a seat.

Yes, sir.

It's been a while
since we've had a new face.

It's a pleasure to meet you.

Tell me, what's your dream?

I don't have the luxury to dream yet.

I'm devoted to my given duties for now.

That's completely understandable
as a starting prosecutor.

That's how it should be.

Then what do you think
is the relationship...

between an assemblyman and a prosecutor?

Don't try to please me,
but tell me your honest opinion.

It's one of faithful hierarchy, sir.

Faithful hierarchy?

You mean there should be faith
between a ruler and his subject?

That's correct, sir.

Both terms have a bit of a
negative connotation these days.

The National Assembly...

trusts the prosecutions and
courts to push for a law.

I think that the prosecution must
also believe in those laws...

and act on them for the
nation to grow in discipline.

It's only possible when there is
trust and loyalty between the two.

What an interesting interpretation.

I'm curious.

Which side is the ruler?

That's simple.

It's the one who can establish laws...

that we prosecutors can trust and follow.

All right then.

There must be faith...

between the National Assembly
and the Prosecutors' Office.

I consider...

the two to be one.

We share the same goal of
wanting to make a better country.

Don't you think?

You're right, sir.

Let me ask you one more thing.

What thought came to your head
after witnessing our meeting?

I thought it would be possible
to build the foundation...

of the nation's administration
with just the people present.

Yes, they're all powerful men.

This is why...

I hope everything will
come together as one.

I also hope that...

the combined power will come to me.

So tell me. How was
Assemblyman Cho Tae Sub in the flesh?

He was powerful.

You're absolutely right.

He's also the only person
who can change this country.

- Is that so?
- Of course.

Who else could unify this country?

Assemblyman Cho has made a plan...

to unify the ruling and opposing parties...

of this country.

He's been gathering
powerful men for that cause.

You are a patriot too,

now that you're under his wings.

Patriot, my foot.

Just think of our secret club...

as an organization...

that will make
Assemblyman Cho the president.

You chose the right team and
now you have guaranteed success.

You better be honoured.

Of course, sir. Thank you.

On that note,

let's go get another drink to celebrate.

- Sounds good, sir.
- Let's ride,

my just prosecutors.

The new face, Kim Hee Woo. I like him.

So why are you neglecting such a talent?

He's too confident.

- Too confident?
- Yes, sir.

That's why I have him on watch duty
to keep an eye on Jeon Seok Kyu.

He's been reporting diligently.

You're having him take orders
and report to you...

so he knows who's boss?

Yes, sir.

He had freedom under
Jeon Seok Kyu's supervision back in Gimsan.

The results may have been good in the end,

but a dog without a leash...

could end up biting his master one day.

This is Seoul, not Gimsan.

He needs to understand he's on a leash.

I plan to bring him by my side
once he becomes obedient.

Interesting.

I'd like to recommend a
different method though.

If you cage a powerful stallion
that can run a thousand miles,

it could end up an idiot...

or break away from your cage.

Whether or not he can grow
into a champion horse...

is up to the master.

The kid already solved a case
with Jeon Seok Kyu.

They came to Seoul together.

Which makes them comrades.

But you expect him to do a 180...

from comrade to an enemy?

Don't you think you have greatly
underestimated Kim Hee Woo?

Chief Prosecutor Kim. Mark my words.

The person holding the leash
is not the master.

The one who feeds...

is the master.

Are you looking at the
corruption case in Gimsan again?

I wanted to make sure
we didn't miss anything.

What's done is done, sir.

You're not actually trying to get
Assemblyman Gu arrested, right?

I'm not trying to arrest him now.

I've got time on my hands,
so I'm just looking over it.

Gu Wook Chung isn't even
in our jurisdiction anymore.

Exactly. That's Gimsan Branch's
responsibility. This is Seoul.

We have to find a case here.

(Chief Prosecutor Kim Seok Hoon)

The new face, Kim Hee Woo. I like him.

So why are you neglecting such a talent?

The person holding the leash
is not the master.

The one who feeds...

is the master.

Come in.

There's something you should know.

Division Chief Jeon Seok Kyu...

is still interested in investigating
Assemblyman Gu from Gimsan.

He's not openly investigating
the assemblyman yet.

But I will report to you
once I check on it.

It's just as I heard.

He knows who his master is.

Great.

- Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo.
- Yes.

Starting tomorrow,
report to Prosecutor Jang Il Hyun...

of the Anti-Corruption
Investigation Department.

Then how will I keep an eye
on Chief Jeon Seok Kyu?

Surveillance can't be
the only job you have.

Right. I understand.

There will be a forum for future talents.

A forum for future talents?

Yes. Young talented individuals
from each sector will attend.

And Assemblyman Cho Tae Sub
singled you out for the forum.

You should go with Il Hyun.

Okay. Thank you for the good opportunity.

Yes. I'm holding his leash,

and I fed him a bit.

Now, I just need to be a good master.

(Future Talent Forum)

It's nice to meet you, everyone.

And I would like to welcome you
to the Future Talent Forum.

At this Future Talent Forum,

we present and foster a new type of talent.

Not only are you the
cream of the crop in your industries,

but also future talents
who will help our country grow.

All the existing innovations
and changes in our world...

were possible thanks to the
hard work of talented people...

like you who never stopped
challenging themselves.

As creative leaders,

you will inspire your organizations
and bring a breath of fresh air.

And you are our valued leaders...

who will push our country
on the right path.

I hope you will have a valuable time
at this forum today.

Thank you.

- Gosh. Hello.
- Hello.

- Here's my card.
- Great.

- Hello.
- Would you like to try that?

My gosh. It kept going up.

Everyone is busy networking.

Excuse me.

Hello. My name is Cho Yoon A.

I see. Nice to meet you,

Ms. Cho Yoon A. You're a movie star.

- Do you know me?
- Of course.

You're the most popular
movie star these days.

I heard in a news article
that you signed a contract...

- with a Hollywood movie studio.
- I see.

I was just lucky.

Now that I've seen you in person,
you look...

You are much prettier in person.

I'm a huge fan of yours.
It's an honour to meet you here.

I see. Okay.

Oh, my. I forgot to introduce myself.

I'm Prosecutor Choi Kang Jin...

of Seoul Central District
Prosecutors' Office.

And I'm Prosecutor Kim's senior.

Is that so?

Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you too.

I loved your movie.

Thank you.

Sung Jin Mi?

Ms. Sung Jin Mi.

You're under arrest for
violating admission rules,

evading taxes, and embezzling money
from Gukdae Foundation.

You have the right to an attorney.
You have the right to remain silent.

Anything you say can and will be
used against you in a court of law.

I arrested her myself...

for corruption and tax evasion.

Chairwoman of Gukdae Arts Foundation,
Sung Jin Mi.

Goodness. You and your jokes.

There isn't much to life.
I'm here thanks to you guys.

Catch two birds...

with one stone.

Hello.

Aren't you Ms. Sung Jin Mi?

I was at one of your concerts.

At my concert?

Yes.

Was it Haydn's sonata?
It was very impressive.

To be honest,
I wasn't a fan of Haydn's music...

until I listened to you play the sonata.

But ever since that day,

I've been listening to his
pleasant melodies thanks to you.

Listeners in Korea like
Beethoven or Mozart.

Everyone agrees that they
were musical maestros.

You're the first person to bring up
music with me instead of business.

Oh, really?

I especially liked Sonata No. 60.
It was very cheerful.

Thank you.

My apologies for my late introduction.

I'm Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo...

of Seoul Central District
Prosecutors' Office.

Hello. Nice to meet you.

I thought prosecutors
would be hard to approach.

But you're well-versed in music.

A lot of people in law
are sentimental about music too.

I see. That's a surprise.

There's another one.
Let me introduce you to him.

- Mr. Jang.
- Hey.

He's the head of the Anti-Corruption
Investigation Department...

at Seoul Central District
Prosecutors' Office.

This is Prosecutor Jang Il Hyun.

Aren't you the chairwoman
of Gukdae Arts Foundation?

Yes, I am. Hello.

- I've always wanted to meet you.
- You did?

Please forgive me for being
so forward on our first meeting.

The truth is, you are my type, Ms. Sung.

Gosh. Who would have known
I would be seeing you here?

This is a huge honour to me and my family.

Nice to meet you.

Right. He's the one
who took me to your concert.

You were utterly impressed
by her concert, weren't you?

- Thank you.
- Sure.

To me, music is the same as love.

You two seem to be hitting it off.
Let me bring some wine.

This is a new glass. Please drink this.

Thank you.

Let's have a drink.

- Really?
- Yes.

I meant it, 100 percent.

What did you think about my concert?

Your hands were so beautiful.

I couldn't help but notice.

I should have paid attention to the music.

Yes. Enjoy it while it lasts.

This time I'm going to arrest her
along with you on the side...

as a bonus.

Sir, there's something
that needs your attention.

Go ahead.

The prosecutors' office
requested to check...

Mirae Electronics' bank account.

Bando Bank is managing that account.
Who is the prosecutor?

Prosecutor Lee Min Soo.

If he finds out about the
illegal loan from the bank...

I'm aware.

Tell President Park of Bando Bank
to stall as much as he can.

I'll tell Chief Prosecutor Kim what to do.

Yes, sir.

(Assemblyman Cho Tae Sub)

(Chief Prosecutor Kim Seok Hoon)

Yes, sir.

The news about Mirae Electronics
reached my ears too.

It's my fault.

I apologize for causing you concern.

Will it be hard to bury it?

I changed the prosecutor in charge.
It will go away soon.

Okay. I'll keep my eye on it.

You're the chief prosecutor now.

You must be able to
look at the big picture.

I'll bear that in mind.

(Department Chief Jang Il Hyun)

Yes, sir. Okay.

(Department Chief Jang Il Hyun)

I need your approval here.

My approval?

What?

Hey, this is Sung Jin Mi's CD.

Yes. This is the recording of her concert.

As a matter of fact,

I've been pretty happy lately
thanks to you.

Hey, isn't Chairwoman Sung Jin Mi...

really something?

Gosh, she's the best.

And she's very young to be a chairwoman...

of a private school foundation...

that covers an arts middle school,
high school, and college.

If I end up marrying her,
does it mean I hit the jackpot?

Gosh. Don't sound so weak.

You're a catch too.

Chairwoman Sung would be
hitting the jackpot.

Gosh. You're unexpectedly
good at buttering people up.

Gosh, no.

I'm doing my best as your wingman.
I hope I hear good news soon.

Okay. I'll try.

And Kang Jin has also been
dolling himself up lately. You know?

It turned out he somehow ended up
dating a movie star, Cho Yoon A.

Is that so? That's great news.

I'm on my way to interrogate
a suspect in a murder case.

Do you want to come with me?

Chief Prosecutor Kim has
his eyes on this case.

Bringing you up to speed might be helpful.

Thank you. But what is this case about?

A medical student killed
his pregnant girlfriend.

I see. Okay. I read it in the papers.

He's denying it for now. But we'll see.

Anyway, you can just watch and learn.

I will. Thank you.

Right. Hold on. We need to stop by here.

We ought to pop in and say hello.

- Hello.
- What? No hello from you?

Hello, sir.

- Mr. Jeon is inside, right?
- Yes, he is.

Wait here. I'll be out soon.

Yes, sir.

- Hello.
- Hey.

Hello, sir.

Goodness. I know how hard
you have been working...

to enhance our national economic power.

- I apologize for bringing you here.
- Why is CEO Jeon Il Bo here?

I clearly remember this
being Min Soo's case.

I thought this case belonged
to another department.

It used to.

That dumbhead, Lee Min Soo,

stuck his nose where it didn't belong.

As of today, we're handling the case.

Mr. Jang will personally handle it.

By the way, how could
Lee Min Soo be so short-sighted?

What was he thinking?

How could he arrest the
CEO of Mirae Electronics without any plans?

And the judge who issued
the warrant was stupid too.

He doesn't know what's important
or how our economy is doing.

I hope you can be understanding
and cut him some slack...

with your generosity.

Since we're on the subject,
why don't I tell you...

You idiot!

I told you there was no point going
after a big fish like Cho Tae Sub.

How many times must I tell you?

You think you're some big shot
with all the media attention?

What? Do you want to pretend
to be a righteous prosecutor?

What will you gain
from this hero act of yours?

Listen carefully, Kim Hee Woo.

Stop investigating Cho Tae Sub.

And stop causing trouble to stand out.

Let's make this easy on ourselves.

You need to know when to butt out,
you jerk.

How much longer must I stay in here?

I'm so sorry.

We will release you right away
as soon as the media dies down.

Please think of it as a break.

I will do my best to make your stay here
as comfortable as possible.

- Good work, sir.
- Hey.

Take better care of him.

Give him a cup of tea or something.
Do better than that.

Oh, right. Did you put together...

a file on the suspect of the
college girl murder case?

Yes. I was actually
going to bring it to you.

What took you so long then?

This is the file on the suspect.
You should give it a read.

I will. Thank you.

Tell me the truth. You killed her.

Then you got scared, so you reported it.

No. I really didn't kill her.

Stop lying.

Hey. I heard you two had a fight.

He hasn't changed even in this life.

He goes soft on the powerful.

And he's tough on the weak.
He's the worst of the worst.

You're a total psychopath.

- After our fight...
- Lee Ju Seok.

A medical student at Hankuk University.

He was the first reporter
and is our prime suspect.

The victim was his girlfriend.

(Process of the Investigation)

How dare you lie to me? Hey, stop crying.

If they fought on the street,
there must be witnesses.

But there were no witnesses?

They weren't on the security cameras
around the scene of the crime.

- This was a shoddy investigation.
- Hey, stop it.

Your fingerprint was on the murder weapon.

My fingerprint...

got on the murder weapon
when I was holding it,

so the knife,
lodged in her body wouldn't move.

No. You killed her!

You can't fool evidence.

If you admit to the crime,
you will get a lighter sentence.

He's right.
With the danger of bleeding out,

any med student would
have done what he did.

(Fingerprints)

I...

I really didn't do it.

I didn't do it. Please believe me.

Hey, tell me the truth.

This isn't right! I really didn't kill her.

- Tell me the truth!
- You got the wrong guy!

Darn it.

Gosh. Look at this jerk.

Let's see how long you keep this act up.

There's only one piece of evidence.

The knife with his fingerprints.

That won't be enough to
put him away for the crime.

Jang Il Hyun is a smart guy.
I'm sure he knows that too.

Good work, sir.

He still hasn't given up yet.

I get it. It must be frustrating,
and he must feel wronged.

Let's go out. I need a drink.

Yes, sir.

Should I look into the
suspect's acquaintances again?

Look into them?

Hee Woo. This shows why you
still need more experience.

Haven't you figured out what's going on?

The truth behind the real killer?
It has nothing to do with us.

And Lee Ju Seok has to be
the culprit right now.

- Pardon?
- Remember what I told you?

Chief Prosecutor Kim has
his eyes on this case.

Right.

Why do you think so?

It's because he makes a
very delightful suspect.

He received good conduct awards
every school year.

And his parents run a snack bar.

His parents are poor,

and this seemingly kind med student
with excellent grades...

turns out to be a murderer.

I'm going to give the press
a field day soon.

I bet it will go viral online too.

He has no money or connections.

Lee Ju Seok has neither.

In other words, Lee Ju Seok ended up
with the short end of the stick.

It's me.

Starting today,
I want everyone in my department...

to investigate Lee Ju Seok's case.

Interrogate his family and friends.
Leave no stone unturned.

And upload a few posts,
pretending to be the victim's relatives.

Write some comments too.

We're going to make him the
worst boyfriend Korea has seen.

Got it?

This case will be enough to cover up...

the case of the CEO of Mirae Electronics,
Jeon Il Bo.

This was it.

Okay? We were born to do this.

Hey, Jin Mi.

Gosh. Of course. I missed you too.

Did you eat?

Yes. Then why don't we eat together?

Sure.

Jang Il Hyun.

I will soon make you the
worst prosecutor Korea has seen.

I'll catch...

the real culprit.

What's next for you, Hee Woo?

I'll leak their relationship to the press.

A bribed prosecutor.

Not Kim Hee A.

He will openly intervene
in my family matter?

I need evidence that proves that
you weren't there that night.

I'll go on a stakeout right away.

Someone in your circle is a traitor.

An easy game is no fun.

Did you look into me?

What you are preparing now...

You should stop.
