-=The events depicted in this drama are fictitious. Any similarity to any person, institutions or events is merely coincidental.=-

Lee Yun Seong.

My father...

please forgive him.

I'm sorry.

Kim Yeong Ju.

Kim Yeong Ju!

Kim Yeong Ju!

-=If you want the top-secret files, then come to Seoul's car junkyard. - City Hunter.=-

Father.

Why did you do that?

Should you lie to have Kim Yeong Ju involved in this?

Because the prosecutor of South Korea wanted to know the truth.

I was only trying to help him.

Do you know?

By killing Kim Yeong Ju,

you cannot escape fate.

Innocent people will die too,

just like my brothers and myself.

I will kill Cheon Jae Man with my own hands.

Let's go.

Sneaking out of the country.

I sneaked out of the country before, so I know that feeling.

You... you've already ruined me, what exactly do you want?

Your life.

We had no choice at that time.

You had no choice back then, right?

Just like now, you're helpless as well.

You must die.

It can't be, it can't be!

Don't come any closer.

Don't come any closer.

Spare me.

I'm begging you, please I'm begging you, spare me!

Please... please, I'm begging you.

The top-secret files is in the flattener at the junkyard.

Lee Yun Seong, you must use the top-secret files.

Kim Yeong Ju.

Have you found it?

Because of North Korea's terrorist group in Aung San.

In order to revenge North Korea's atrocity.

they decided to choose 21 Special Forces members familiar with North Korea to infiltrate Pyeongyang.

Although they killed 7 North Korea officers,

but when they were at the designated meeting time in North Korea waters,

they were ambushed and killed.

All of the individuals were killed in the retaliatory attack.

Lee Kyeong Wan.

Even if I don't take some, someone else will take it.

=I should be praised as the fighter who wholeheartedly upholds democracy!=

Turn it off immediately! Hurry!

Seo Yong Hak.

=Just consider it as a 20% commission fee.=

I've said it. Turn it off quickly!

Everyone, this must be a political conspiracy!

Kim Jong Sik.

City Hunter most definitely stole the university's operation funds,

to distribute to the students

in order to boost his own popularity.

=Guilt? Forgiveness? Surrender? Forget it!=

Don't come any closer.

Cheon Jae Man.

=City Hunter is not a hero,=

=but someone who has betrayed his country.=

Choe Eun Chan.

In the end,

is this it?

Cheon Jae Man's blood, have you cleaned it off?

Then, Kim Yeong Ju's blood, also needs to be cleaned off.

Kim Yeong Ju was killed by Cheon Jae Man.

You know about that?

Father, you're the same as Cheon Jae Man.

Cheon Jae Man didn't personally kill the special forces,

he just used someone else's hand.

How dare you compare me to Cheon Jae Man?

The last person...

is President Choe Eun Chan.

The most cruel revenge you were talking about...

is this it?

To make me personally kill my biological father?

For the past 28 years, you must have been very happy, right?

You took me away from my mother,

made me believe that someone else was my biological father.

And now,

you want me to take revenge against my biological father?

That revenge...

I'm afraid I won't do it.

Is it because he is your own flesh and blood?

No, it's not.

After meeting him, I realized that

he is a very good President.

That President that you think so highly of,

do you really think he's sitting at that position with clean hands?

Choi Eun Chan.

Once you know his true colors, I'm looking forward to seeing your reaction.

Don't expect any reactions from me.

It won't be as you wished.

Two people's blood, I'm afraid you'll have to clean them for a long time.

I, Seo Yong Hak,

will tell the country the truth now.

Regarding this matter, I sincerely express my apologies.

But the country has the right to know,

so I must have courage to stand here.

City Hunter's next target is...

the President, Choi Eun Can.

Because of the raid operation 28 years ago,

Chairman Lee Kyeong Wan, Chairman Kim Jong Sik, Chairman Cheon Jae Man...

and I as well.

We have all become targets for revenge.

But, the person who led the raid operation 28 years ago,

was the current president.

President Choi Eun Chan.

It was a plan that he personally directed.

Chief, Seo Yong Hak opened up and said it was President Choi Eun Chan's doing.

He said the raid operation was among five people,

but he never said what it was about.

-=President Choe Eun Chan's press conference.=-

Why was there a raid operation?

I'm not sure about that.

You really didn't set up the operation in October '83?

That's right.

Minister Seo Yong Hak said that City Hunter's next target is you, President.

I don't know what was his purpose to said such a thing.

This will end today's press conference.

One last question, please.

A prosecutor from Seoul Special Investigation Branch was investigating the event in '83,

died while looking for the top-secret files.

Do you know about that?

=The person who led the raid operation 28 years ago,= -=Seo Yong Hak, the former Minister of Defense.=-

=was the current president, President Choi Eun Chan.=

=It was a plan that he personally directed.=

Is this true? Is it really the President who did it? The President?

To get rid of the President,

So you intentionally surrounded the President with bribery,

and making them seem corrupt?

Are you afraid?

As long as it regains my brother's lost honor,

but we shouldn't be shaking up the country like this.

Can't we just regain the dead soldiers' honor,

and then just end all of this, Captain?

Captain!

Why? Why did this happen?

Rotten brat.

I've told him so many times to not to go investigating by himself.

He always ignored my commands, rotten brat.

I didn't know that you were so troubled by your father's issues.

Yet, I still complained about the many tasks that were given to me.

Prosecutor, I'm really sorry.

Prosecutor, I'm very sorry.

Even if I must die,

I will complete your unfinished works.

The bastards that did this to you,

I will catch them all and put them in jail.

The justice that you pursued in your lifetime,

as long as I put on my prosecutor uniform,

I will protect it till the end.

Why are you here?

Our prosecutor was chasing you that time, and he became like this.

City Hunter.

Isn't that you?

At that time, he risked his life to arrest you.

Our prosecutor has become like this!

Get out, you murderer!

We will surely catch you, we will surely catch you!

I only came because I feel that we have lost a great prosecutor,

but it looks like I should leave.

We must investigate the relationship between Chairman Cheon Jae Man and President Choi Eun Chan.

After the President was inaugurated,

Hae Won Group received two highway bridge construction contracts.

Because of that, it's questionable if there are special benefits.

Prior to this presidential election, Hae Won Group mobilized a lot of funds.

Probably it was used for the President's election campaign.

The contract was probably used as the price they paid for.

City Hunter.

Isn't that you?

At that time, he risked his life to arrest you.

Our prosecutor has become like this!

Get out, you murderer!

April 13, 2011 immigration entry.

Joined the Blue House's Intelligence Network and Communications group on May 2nd.

During the disclosure of Lee Kyeong Wan's crimes, the Blue House's IP address was stolen.

I had seen Dr. Lee Yun Seong once in this room.

The time when the police department's surveillance camera system went black,

it's because somebody was using the Blue House's IP address.

So Prosecutor Kim Yeong Ju came to investigate.

Then in the Blue House library, looking for the '83 Blue House Security Guard Members album.

With Lee Yun Seong here...

Investigator from Seoul Special Investigation Branch, Jang Pil Jae is here.

Let him come in.

Prosecutor Kim Yeong Ju wondered if City Hunter were 2 people.

Lee Jin Pyo and Dr. Lee Yun Seong.

Lee Jin Pyo and Lee Yun Seong?

Lee Jin Pyo came from the special forces unit.

In '83, he was the Blue House security guard.

But then after he was missing in action,

Prosecutor Kim Yeong Ju decided that these individuals were definitely related to the raid operation.

Although his identity was changed

under the name of Steve Lee, who's living as an Korean American,

but it's fake.

He was a drug lord in the Golden Triangle, although that hasn't been confirmed.

Golden Triangle.

What about Lee Yun Seong?

Also in '83, his parents are Park Mu Yeol, who was the Blue House security guard, as well as a member of special forces,

and a woman named Lee Kyeong Hee.

P-Park Mu Yeol, Lee Kyeong Hee?

According to the investigation, Lee Jin Pyo took the child away when the child was a month old,

and brought him to the Golden Triangle.

That, seems like the President has suspected that something is wrong.

He has requested for your personal file to be brought to him.

Are you familiar... with uploading pictures to the blog now?

Everything was uploaded, I even uploaded a video.

Take a look.

Have you seen the press conference?

Yes, I have seen it.

President, can I ask you a question?

The content of the press conference, is it true?

What if it's true?

There are decisions that always have to be made in this position.

In order to eliminate all existing problems,

it's impossible to only depend on me.

So I decided to work on two things.

The nation's health and education.

Medical care for the masses, the countrymen's health can't be threatened.

The costly university tuition fees,

shouldn't be the reason for young students to give up their learning opportunities.

Regardless of the method, I must certainly protect these issues.

In a few more days, I will use my position as the President to guarantee,

the passage of the private school law in parliament.

Does it seem right?

Even if the methods are all wrong?

Eun Ah, are you at the security guard department?

Are you doing well?

Yes, I'm doing well.

Where is Lee Yun Seong?

He still haven't get off from work?

He should be soon, since he has always been busy.

But it's so hot, why are you still wearing long sleeves?

Is it really hot there?

The air-conditioner in my house is too cold, I can't bear to wear short sleeves.

Right, this house was bought under my name.

What?

It's nothing, just for your information, in case you're bored.

You're here.

Yes.

Na Na is here.

Na Na?

I heard from Ajumeonni, (Ajumeonni - older lady, aunt)

that President Choe Eun Chan is your biological father.

That person who raised you is too cruel,

took you away from Ajumeonni,

Just to make you and your biological father become like this?

You even did everything in order to take the revenge...

Lee Kyeong Wan, Seo Yong Hak, Kim Jong Sik, and Cheon Jae Man...

they were all corrupted.

If they weren't corrupted,

then I could forgive them.

What if the President is also corrupt?

Will you deal with him too?

If he's corrupt...

This, must it be Lee Yun Seong's duty to deal with?

Isn't he your father?

He's your biological father, how can you do...

Kim Yeong Ju will do the same.

Because it was his father,

Because he was his father,

he covered up the truth.

But, was that really to his father's benefit?

I'm the President's bodyguard.

Perhaps we will

meet just like when I was Seo Yong Hak's bodyguard.

I don't know if we'll meet like that.

I...

hope Lee Yun Seong, you...

wouldn't do things that you would regret in the future.

=Do you know the national party's top member, Lee Yeong Tae?=

Lee Yeong Tae?

Due to Hae Won Group Chairman Cheon's private healthcare bill,

he has become one of the bribery suspects and currently being investigated by the Prosecutor's Office.

=That person,=

=although President Choe Eun Chan belongs in the same political party,=

=they are political enemies.=

If Congressman Lee Yeong Tae doesn't act,

the amendment of private school law may have difficulty in passing.

His current opposing views...

the votes of those representatives who support Rep. Lee Yeong Tae

are really important.

Then, President Choe Eun Chan will definitely find a way to change Lee Yeong Tae's mind.

I understand.

I will look into it and solve it.

You're here, Mr. President.

The restaurant's interiors and rooms have been checked.

We haven't discovered anything strange so far.

Representative Lee Yeong Tae is waiting for you inside.

You and your bodyguards, just wait outside.

Sorry, we can't follow such orders, President.

Since the last terrorist attack at the Yeong Bin Gwan,

we have to keep a close guard.

Can you give me 30 minutes?

Just 30 minutes will do.

President.

I'll get straight to the point.

The proposed amendment to the private school law,

I hope you can approve it.

If I help you with this favor,

what will the President give me in return?

I will pardon you from the Prosecutor's Office's harassment.

I can help you to accomplish this much.

Since Rep. Lee Kyeong Wan's incident,

with regards to the Defense Parliament,

The country already complained relentlessly, yet the members of the parliament still did not come forth.

Especially,

I already heard that you teamed up with Cheon Jae Man.

The public's opinion is their own.

But,

I will still help you with this.

Thank you.

As the ruling party, even if we split up again,

it's only to let the opposite parties acquire the benefits.

If President would like to amend the private school law,

I will also put more effort.

I will trust and support you completely, President.

I'm counting on you.

Why are you here?

The deal was completed smoothly.

I have never thought that the President would do that.

Sacrifice a congressman in exchange for thousands of university students' learning opportunities,

I have no regrets over this choice.

Didn't you say before that being in the president position will require sacrifices?

Since when has it become a position to strike deals?

In the political process,

sometimes we need to consider for a greater good.

The elimination of 20 people that year,

was it also for the greater good?

In amending the private school law,

many people have complained against the high cost of university fees, however...

setting the law through parliament,

the university chancellors, deans, and professors,

including their numerous relatives, they've all come to hold important positions.

Do you think they will change easily?

I have no other choice, no other.

Let me ask you one thing.

Orphans have to find a way to feed themselves,

does that justify their reason for theft?

Even if it were for the greater good, there's no justification for sacrificing the innocent.

Even if it were for the greater good, it doesn't validate their attempts to conceal their corruption.

The top-secret files classified until 2030...

are in my hands.

That decision that you think you wouldn't regret,

I will make you regret it.

This is my...

revenge.

President, are you okay?

Ah, I was just about to leave.

Bodyguard Kim Na Na,

what happened?

It's nothing.

I've been looking out for 30 minutes now, but the President still hasn't come out.

Okay, we should go back now.

-=Bear Na Na.=-

You said you're a reporter.

Because of the election, I'm the person who responsible for the money.

because I was afraid of burdening the President, I lived a normal life.

How did you find me?

What do you think about what the President,

that he had strongly advocated for corruption of campaign funds?

The election funds...

although I could guess how it's being collected,

but I don't know the whole situation.

Even if it's for the future, he can take the responsibility.

He's always managing by himself.

He's a person who does and checks things thoroughly,

Somehow, he has left some records.

Records?

Yes.

Not only diaries, there are even official account records.

Since he's already managing all by himself.

Surely he'll have a copy of the account records.

Is it in the mansion?

Da Hye, after she heard the news about Prosecutor Kim Yeong Ju,

she became completely ill.

She won't even go to the nightclubs that she likes so much.

Da Hye said she won't go to nightclubs anymore?

Wow, even when she didn't get into college last year,

she still frequently went to nightclubs.

That's why I'm so worried.

What should I do for Da Hye?

Just let her be.

Having a experience such painful incident,

will allow her to become more sensible.

I'm getting confused, am I a security guard or a personal secretary?

Why don't take advantage of this opportunity and help her plan a social gathering.

Don't bother mentioning a social gathering.

You should take care of your own affairs.

F-For just for example, the kind of looks the surrounding people are giving me.

F-For example, who are the ones by your side.

What kind of intentions they have.

J-Just roughly something like this.

F-For example, this kind of irritable look.

L-Like me.

S-someone that doesn't generally show this side easily.

I love you.

I'm sorry.

There's a tall and handsome guy

who claimed to be a reporter and asked about my election funds?

Okay, your answer isn't bad.

Okay, take care.

After I retire, let's go mountain and climbing together.

My youngest daughter even bought me mountain-climbing clothes.

Yes, okay.

It'll be discovered anytime soon,

definitely.

But must be after the case is being amended, it'll be through.

Why are you so drawn?

Eat your favorite fried chicken.

Cheer up.

Prosecutor Kim Yeong Ju

is really too pitiful.

I'm familiar with Chairman Cheon Jae Man too.

That he actually was someone who would commit such acts.

In this world, there isn't a credible person.

They are all so pitiful.

Eonni, take this. (Eonni - older sister)

What is this?

Isn't this men's clothing?

Give it to Go Gi Jun.

Go Gi Jun?

It seems like you've come to like Go Gi Jun again.

Eonni.

Don't you see?

Both of you are very compatible.

Me and Go Gi Jun?

You guys should start dating.

I'm here to tutor Da Hye.

Please go in.

Yes.

Did you come for this?

You're really a fearless person.

You dared to enter the presidential residence in such a manner.

Looks like you do not know how to stop.

Stop it.

This isn't suitable for me.

I just want to ask you one thing.

Why are you doing this?

Because of trust.

For country people who personally elected politicians,

to act in good conscience.

To look out for soldiers who enlisted to protect their country,

and trusted that the country will protect them in turn.

For universities and for the sake of our next generation,

to keep their missions to nurture talented individuals.

For enterprises,

to partner with their employees, understand their pain,

and grow together.

And also,

To those in the Nampo Sea,

who believed their country's promise and waited,

the trust of those 20 people,

I must protect that trust.

Protecting that trust is my cause.

The raid operation...

in the past 28 years, I have never forgotten for a single moment.

Jin Pyo's pain,

I completely understand.

Take this.

This is from when I entered politics,

which records the illegal election contributions for which I had no choice but to accept.

Deal with this matter however you see fit.

If you can do it, then I will thank you.

Yun Seong.

For letting you live this kind of life,

Father feels sorry for you.

Do you really plan to

insist until the very end?

The more you're being like this,

the one who's going to end up suffering the most is you.

Must you do this?

Other than me, there's no one who can carry out this task.

I have to do this.

With regards to this year, 2011, the amendment of private school law,

=you may start your vote.=

President is the mastermind of the raid operation?

What?

21 people in Nampo Sea died at the hands of our own soldiers.

This is crazy!

This said that the President is the person behind the raid operation.

- No. - Is it true?

Come here, take a look.

This is President's secret fund account records.

It's extremely detailed.

It even provides a listing of the congressional members.

According to it, the private school law amendment has passed because,

it went through some kind of deal.

This will be the headline!

Quickly!

-=Private school law amendment: 228 approves, 41 opposes, and 5 refrains from voting.=-

228 votes approves.

41 votes opposes.

5 refrains from voting.

To this, I declare the approval of private school law amendment.

Finally, it passed!

You must be happy.

Of course, I'm very happy.

Bodyguard Kim, you said you also relied on yourself to complete your studies.

Of course, It should have been approved long time ago.

Come in.

T-that, President,

something big happened.

-=President Choe Eun Chan's illegal presidential election funds surfaced.=-

President Choe Eun Chan.

When he was getting the private school law amendment to pass,

he didn't only damage the separations of powers,

but he also shook the whole foundation of democracy.

And they even concealed the truth about the raid operation,

and made fools of the country's people.

Regarding to this, as a congressman, I...

conclude that our country shouldn't be led by this kind of president,

And proposed the notion of impeachment and removal of President Choe Eun Chan.

President.

The congress just proposed the notion of impeachment.

I couldn't protect you, I'm very sorry.

It's okay.

On the contrary, I feel more relieved.

It should have happened a long time ago.

What is this? -=City Hunter=-

It was these that attempted to pass the private school law amendment act,

and accepted bribery.

Let them stand up.

Bring them in.

=On one side the President and Senators attempted at passing the amended private school law bill.=

=But the bribery matters were revealed.=

=Along with the evidence, they were sent to the Prosecutor's Office.=

He will probably be impeached.

Really.

And also,

the country people will certainly feel strongly betrayed.

Where are you going, Yun Seong?

Father will be coming.

Kim Na Na, is tomorrow your day off?

For the time being, all staff members are on standby for reinstatement.

Be prepared, you'll be called to the villa at any time.

Chief, tomorrow isn't my day off.

It is indeed your day off.

Don't you remember correctly?

No, I wrote it down on the agenda...

President.

Hello?

Before you accept the national trial,

you should first accept my trial sentence, right?

If you don't want any sacrificing of the innocent to appear,

I hope you won't stop me.

The meeting will be carried out in 2 hours.

Chief Park.

Before the meeting,

an important guest will come to see me.

Don't do the whole body check.

Just let him pass.

Yes, President.

And also, I want to be by myself for a while.

But we can't do that.

I'm counting on you, Chief Park.

There's just something I'd like to think alone.

I came to see the President.

Yes, the President told me.

He is waiting for you inside.

Please come inside.

You're here.

There's already nothing left for you to do.

This isn't a place where you should be.

Didn't I tell you before?

I want to stop it with my own hands.

28 years of revenge,

you won't be able to stop it.

The revenge of cruelly shooting my biological father,

will I get happiness after the revenge?

I don't have a choice but to use a gun in front of the woman I love.

Do you think I would just sit there and do nothing?

Following the father who lost a leg because of me.

You raise your knife towards me.

How did you think I felt?

I really hope that you would think on my behalf.

Please stop all of this.

I...

I just want to be normal again.

Be with Father and live happily.

But...

these are all just a dream.

If this is my fate,

then I would end it myself.

Don't!

Stop this.

Please stop all of this.

Yun Seong.

This is enough already.

Can you put your gun down, please?

I've been waiting.

The life I promised to take, I'm here to redeem it.

Bodyguard Kim Na Na.

I'm sorry.

Protect him!

Put your gun down, put your gun down!

Don't move.

Don't you dare make a rash move.

The people here have to die.

I'm the raid operation's sole survivor, Lee Jin Pyo.

To take revenge on behalf of my comrades for the betrayal by their homeland,

I personally killed Lee Kyung Wan, Cheon Jae Man,

kidnapped Kim Jong Sik and pushed him to his fall,

sent Seo Yong Hak to the Prosecutor's Office.

After that, I finally must kill Choe Eun Chan.

I'm the City Hunter.

Choe Da Hye brand coffee latte.

It's beautiful!

Now you're finally look like a coffee barista.

Am I?

Eonni, you look tired after your father passed away.

Even your black circles are down to your chin.

Really?

Remember to cover them before you go out.

Hello!

Da Hye, Na Na eonni!

You're here.

Have all father's matters been successfully resolved?

We unknowingly became like this.

We are getting married.

I already said that you guys are very compatible.

Congratulations!

Thank you.

But with Na Na eonni quitting and Lee Yun Seong also no longer there,

the Blue House has become so quiet.

Didn't you say that you are happy with me?

So a marriage will be considered now.

Take it back.

Take it back, Eonni.

Da Hye.

If you guys are too busy to come,

I will text you guys the bank account to exchange red envelopes.

I wish you to be happy, Eun Ah. -=Groom: Go Gi Jun Bride: Shin Eun Ah.=-

Auntie, wait until we have moved to States.

I want to open snack bar, but I don't want to name it Delicious Snack Bar.

How about Delicious Korea Snack Bar?

What did the former president say?

He said sorry and thank you, and he wished me happiness.

Within a year, I'll become a chef in a foreign land.

Then, Korean food will rise up in the world.

But how do you say the word rise up in English?

Rise up.
