[Dong-ho] I know you have
a really strong sense of justice.

We both do.

[mysterious music playing]

[Dong-ho] We just have
different ways going about it.

And I can't help but think my way

is the best way to truly achieve justice.

SEVEN MONTHS AGO

[somber music playing]

[Gi-tae] Half of them died
in the battle against the Japanese,

the other half during the Korean War.

My grandfather was
one of the few who survived,

and he always said
he felt guilty that he did.

FOR THE INDEPENDENCE OF KOREA

[Gi-tae] Drink.

My grandfather got this in the Korean
Liberation Army's Third Battalion,

back when he was a squad leader.

Dong-ho,

no matter what happens to me,
please pull out all the weeds still

left in the Blue House.

[foreboding music playing]

[Dong-ho] On November 18th, 2022,
I paid a visit to the Blue House.

And the reason
I… went there that night was to

kill President Jang.

[indistinct murmuring]

[suspenseful music playing]

[Gi-tae] Daejin Group's
Chairman Kang Yeong-ik,

I was hoping to weed him out myself.

I'll do it then.

It was hard enough to get three people.

Daejin Group's Chairman Kang
bribed the constitutional justices

and meddled in state affairs.

[Gi-tae] Jo Sang-cheon,

a monster created
by the division of the state.

I wish I'd brought him to justice.

Just leave it to me.

[man] Assemblyman Jo Sang-cheon
won over a justice

by bribing
a former public security prosecutor.

This is evidence of… bribery
between Jo Sang-cheon and a justice.

What about Jeong Su-jin?

She's been our ally for a while.

[Dong-ho sighs]

Let's take her with us.

I'll take you along

to hell.

I, Park Dong-ho,

have decided to tarnish my own name,

as long as it leads to their demise.

Bringing them all to justice

will be my last duty and honor

as your president of South Korea.

[Gi-tae] "A country where all people
are treated as equals."

"A country where the weak
are not taken advantage of."

Beautiful words inscribed on his grave,
but they're just unfulfilled dreams.

What do you dream of, Gi-tae?

[somber music playing]

To be a whirlwind.

WHIRLWIND
PARK DONG-HO

[Gi-tae] I want to sweep everything away

in this suffocating world

and begin anew.

[opening theme music playing]

THE WHIRLWIND

[sirens blaring]

EPISODE 10

[man] President Park
has voluntarily submitted himself

as a suspect to the Seoul Central
District Prosecutors' Office.

This marks
the first time in constitutional history

that a sitting president
will be investigated by prosecutors,

leaving the nation in shock.

President Park has announced
his intention to remain at the Blue House,

until the Constitutional Court's
corruption case has been resolved.

[curious music playing]

[Dong-ho] If you must draw my blood

in order to punish Jeong Su-jin
and Vice Chairman Kang Sang-un,

do what must be done.

Jang-seok,

today's the day.

[phone vibrating]

JEONG SU-JIN

Call for a meeting
with the chief prosecutors.

Include the deputy prosecutors.

Let me worry about that.
You just set up the meeting for me.

[door opens]

My goodness, Park Dong-ho
is trying to turn the world upside down.

Look, here's what we should do.

I know what I should do.

-Huh?
-Get the car ready.

Now wait a second.
I thought we were in the same boat here!

I'm bringing someone else on board.
Get comfortable.

[Sang-cheon] What?

[gasps] Come back here!

On April 17th, I met
with Chairman Kang inside the safe house.

I promised him half of my power,
and he agreed

to bribe the constitutional justices--

[Jang-seok] Your wife called me.

Your son

wants to drop out of school.

The students
have been giving him a hard time.

I'll help your son find a new school.

And I'll also help your wife look for
a new place so she can lie low.

-[dishes clattering]
-[sighs]

[Dong-ho] I want the reason
for what I did to President Jang

to be written
in my son's history books one day.

[somber music playing]

But I'll need your help with that.

I'm going to investigate
Chairman Kang first.

No. Please begin
with the Constitutional Court.

-Investigations usually follow--
-Jeong Su-jin is our top priority.

Jang-seok,

I really need her to

go down with me.

DAEJIN MEDICAL CENTER

We can't let them issue
a search-and-seizure warrant

for the Constitutional Court.

You woke up a tired old man
just to say that?

So much for audacious ideas, huh?

Most of the prosecutors come
from special-investigation backgrounds.

They are clearly drawn to money and power.

[suspenseful music playing]

You still have connections

who will gladly take your money.

They look up to you
like you're their own father.

It's time to put your children to work.

Bring your people to protest
in front of the Prosecutors' Office.

I'll make sure my followers are there too.

[Sang-cheon] Anyone who can carry a flag
should be there.

What? You don't think
we have enough flags?

Well, what about those Japanese flags?

The ones from 2019?

Yeah, from the boycott protest.

Put some blue paint and a few lines on.
That should do the trick.

Use my supporters
for what needs to be done.

[man] Come on. Let's go!

[Su-jin] We mobilized
a few powerful labor unions

from big corporations and industries
in the metropolitan area.

I am willing to bet that,

at the end of the day,
we'll be the ones still standing.

[suspenseful music continues]

[sighs]

[panting]

[machine whirs]

They're holding a meeting
with the chief prosecutors.

Park Dong-ho is the president,
but he's still a murder suspect.

[Jeong-yeon] They've also called in
100 deputy prosecutors in the area

for an emergency meeting.

The Prosecutors' Office is rebelling.

[Jeong-yeon sighs]

That's not all.

I think they are planning
to overthrow President Park.

[Dong-ho] My chief of staff,
Choi Yeon-sook,

will submit her resignation.

She's furious. [sighs]

She was very close to President Jang.

The news was a lot for her.

She'll never forgive me for killing him.

Are you trying to

protect Choi Yeon-sook?

[Dong-ho sighs]

[mysterious music playing]

[Dong-ho] Get a new position in the party.

Everyone's going to start
throwing stones at me.

You need to be at the front,

leading the angry mob, okay?

[sighs]

Mr. President.

"Before the rooster crows,
you will deny me three times."

Jesus said that

to Peter, one of the apostles.

Peter made it through unharmed.

He survived in a world without Jesus,

and he became the first pope.

You still have much to accomplish.

I want you to deny me three times.

No, ten times. A hundred times.

Don't follow me.

Don't try to become a martyr.

I was the only one
involved with the crime.

I secured a residence for you in Sweden.

There's only one cross.

I'll be the only one crucified.

No accomplices.

[phone vibrating]

PROSECUTOR JI YEONG-MI

Lee Jang-seok speaking.

What?!

An arrest warrant?

What are you talking about?

[Dong-ho sighs]

[suspenseful music playing]

Sir, can you step back please?

-Move aside.
-[man] You can't go in there.

[Pil-gyu] I said move!

Two thousand prosecutors
and chief prosecutors

have agreed to request an arrest warrant

for sitting President Park Dong-ho
for the murder of President Jang.

Are you really trying to arrest
a sitting president in front of me?

With his confession and the insurrection,
he'll be thrown into prison.

But getting a sitting president arrested
won't be easy, I'm afraid.

Park Dong-ho caused this tsunami,

but I won't go down with it.

I need to make sure that

he has no way out.

He must go down.

You're no longer the president
in the eyes of this country.

You are nothing but a murderer

and responsible for the insurrection.

-And you will be treated as such.
-Shut it!

Mr. President, go back
to the Blue House now.

Let me deal with this internal rebellion.

-[man] Arrest Park Dong-ho!
-[drum beating]

[crowd chanting] Arrest Park Dong-ho!

[man] Arrest Park Dong-ho!

[crowd] Arrest Park Dong-ho!

[man] Arrest Park Dong-ho!

[crowd] Arrest Park Dong-ho!

[crowd yelling]

[man] Arrest Park Dong-ho!

[crowd] Arrest Park Dong-ho!

[man] Arrest Park Dong-ho!

[crowd] Arrest Park Dong-ho!

[crowd yelling]

The angry mob isn't going anywhere.
Do you think you can get past it?

The judge in charge of the warrant
is examining the legal framework.

So why don't you come with us
until the court delivers its judgment,

President?

[suspenseful music swells]

[Jeong-yeon] The police say there are
30,000 protesters in Seocho-dong.

We have to get the police to intervene.

If the police hurt a single protester,
they will blame President Park.

It will only make the situation
spin out of control.

But the president
won't have anyone to help him out then.

[phone vibrating]

[mysterious music playing]

Seo Jeong-yeon speaking.

Jeong Su-jin requested
an emergency meeting with the Assembly.

She'll probably get the members
to demand the president's resignation.

[Yeon-sook sighs]

That will help the Prosecutors' Office
obtain an arrest warrant.

-What are we gonna do now?
-[Yeon-sook sighs]

-[knock on door]
-[door opens]

[door closes]

What's going on?

The prime minister
said to meet her in your office.

She needs to tell us something.

[Su-jin] Article 77,
Section 1 of the Constitution,

"The president may proclaim martial law."

The armed forces chiefs are gathered
at the Blue House at this very moment.

[indistinct chatter]

And the president's chief of staff

is currently reviewing the proclamation
of martial law under his orders.

Article 11, Section 1,

"All citizens are equal before the law."

It doesn't matter if the murderer
is a civilian or a sitting president.

They both have to stand,
facing the same court of law.

[Yeon-sook sighs]

[mysterious music playing]

[Dong-ho] Peter made it through unharmed.

He survived in a world without Jesus.

You still have much to accomplish.

I want you to deny me three times.

No.

Ten times. A hundred times.

[sighs]

[Dong-ho] Don't follow me

Don't try to become a martyr.

President Park refused the prosecutor's
arrest warrant at the Blue House,

therefore violating
a direct constitutional order.

[mysterious music continues]

[Su-jin] We must prevent
his declaration of martial law.

It took the June Uprising
along with the April 19th Revolution

to avoid this situation.

Therefore, we must abandon this president

in order to preserve
our beloved Constitution.

[indistinct murmuring]

Article 112, Section 2 of the Constitution
of the Republic of Korea,

"Adjudicators of the Constitution Court
shall not join any political party

or participate
in any political activities."

However, nine justices were motivated

by political interests
in the impeachment trial.

That staged video of Chairman Kang

has been revealed to be fake evidence.

Chairman Kang made it known
he was threatened into lying.

The justices are innocent.

There was no bribery at all.

It was all fake news.

Start the video.

CONFIDENTIAL FILES

[beeps]

[Yong-hwan] I'm counting on
your protection.

It's the only reason
I'm siding with the president.

[beeps]

The chief justice
of the Constitutional Court

was caught abusing his power
for personal motives.

Do you think we could sway
Justice Cha Guk-hyeon?

Justice Cha has many debts
to repay to Chairman Kang,

so probably, yes.

It appears I was right all along.

Constitutional Justice Cha

sold out for a large sum of money
to save his family's company.

Stop it.

[Yeon-sook] You said they were innocent.

I wonder how many more of the justices
were breaking the law? Let's see.

[beeps]

[Su-jin] Do you think I'd be able to sway
Justice Song Tae-ho over lunch?

[Yong-hwan] I don't think you can.

I heard he already had lunch

with Jo Sang-cheon. He's on their side.

[beeps]

He was bribed by Jo Sang-cheon.

Justice Song betrayed
our constitution in exchange

for political interests
regarding his future.

[sighs]

President Park Dong-ho
will see his work till completion.

Until then, please let him
continue his journey as the president

of the Republic of Korea.

Right now, President Park
is climbing Mt. Calvary all by himself.

I've decided
that I'm climbing it with him.

And if he is crucified at the top,
I will join the cross beside him.

-[phone beeps]
-[sighs]

[phone vibrating]

PRESIDENT PARK DONG-HO

I'm really sorry.

I couldn't stand by and watch, I'm afraid.
I had to do something.

[suspenseful music playing]

They're buying it.

They'll believe anything you say.

Just like when everyone believed
the Gwangju rumor in the '80s.

[Yeon-sook] President Park Dong-ho

will protect the people
and national security

until the very last moment
of his stay at the Blue House.

He will conduct a thorough investigation

of the spies who infiltrated the KCTU.

Those spies are fighting against
the withdrawal of US troops

from our country
and the joint ROK-US training.

Over the past few years,

they have been hindering
the stability of the country

through clandestine acts
of insurrection and mutiny.

Huh? You're a spy, aren't you, you commie?

-I'm not! Are you?
-Wait!

[Yeon-sook] The NIS and the police
will join forces in a joint investigation

to stamp out all actions threatening
the integrity of our beloved country.

[indistinct chatter]

Bring in the police.

This is an insurrection, not a protest.

No one in that crowd is innocent.

They're all violent rioters. Look at them!
They're fighting on the roads.

[Pil-gyu] Yes, I'll…

I'll put another request in
for an arrest warrant now. And I'll--

[Dong-ho] I assume
the arrest warrant is dismissed.

Since the court finished its review,
guess I'll be going.

We're putting in another request
for an arrest--

Don't bother barking at me

if you can't bite.

[suspenseful music playing]

[sighs]

[Jang-seok] I want
a search-and-seizure warrant

from the PI Department
against the Constitutional Court.

The Anti-Corruption Department

must immediately request arrest warrants
for all the constitutional justices.

Everyone,

I'll return here once I am done.

After Lee Jang-seok has finished
interrogating Chairman Kang,

Jo Sang-cheon, Jeong Su-jin,
and the justices, I will return then.

I will be held
to the same standard as the rest.

When that time finally comes,

I'll not return as president,

but as a citizen.

[suspenseful music intensifies]

[somber music playing]

[sighs]

Will you give me a month
to turn the world around?

Just one month.

That is all I'm asking here.

Since the moment you asked me
to help turn the world around,

there hasn't been a day
you've been alone, Mr. President.

Please write a list of all the politicians
who are innocent.

They need safeguarding.

The innocent will go inside the ark

before the rain pours down.

Jeong Su-jin's world
will be flooded by a heavy storm.

Forty days of misery.

[woman] The Seoul Central District
Prosecutors' Office

conducted a search and seizure
on the Constitutional Court this morning,

after receiving a warrant.

The unprecedented circumstance
has raised a sense of concern

and apprehension
within the entire legal community.

Meanwhile,
none of the constitutional justices

have reported for work today.

The justices won't respond to the summons.

They are all claiming that they
have never met with Chairman Kang at all.

Dong-ho, I think I need some more time.

Back in the day,
when the military coup seized power,

they were allowed
to turn the economy around.

Do you know why?

Because the people could not wait.

For the better part
of the nation's existence,

the bad guys were the ones

who held the power in this office.

But the people tolerated it

because they believed
it was a necessary evil.

History has shown
that if there isn't any progress,

the citizens will question
those in control.

We're running out of time here.

[phone beeps]

The Anti-Corruption Department
must immediately request arrest warrants

for all the constitutional justices.

[Pil-gyu] Those constitutional justices
are our seniors and our mentors.

They're messing with our justice system.
We can't sit around and do nothing!

So we can't try to fight lies
with the truth anymore.

Only a greater lie beats a lie.

Tell the media

that a constitutional justice is
cooperating with the Prosecutors' Office.

Yes, sir.

-[sighs]
-[door opens]

[door closes]

[Sang-jin] It can't be
Justice Ju Byeong-seok.

However, Justice Oh Min-su
sounded a little hesitant

when I was
on the phone with him yesterday.

I can't believe your father
tried to save his own company

by throwing you under the bus.

How about you give him
a taste of his own medicine?

There's only one thing
you need to be worried about.

When you sell your father out, who will

be the highest bidder?

I want to meet with all three.

I don't know which of them is talking,
but I'm going to shut up all three.

So tell me,

where is the location

your father meets people in secret?

[Yeong-ik] I put a little something
in your secret safes at Macao Bank.

I think it should be quite enough

for your grandchildren's children
to live on for a while.

Daejin Group's been around
for a long time.

Under my umbrella, no one has gotten wet.

Only a couple drops at most, if any.
No one should be worried at all.

[phone vibrating]

PARK DONG-HO

[suspenseful music playing]

[Dong-ho] Those who have
knowledge of the law

are much harder to catch
because they manipulate it.

You already knew it would be
incredibly difficult to prove

bribery allegations
without a sole witness or confession.

With that being said,

Chairman Kang, you're under arrest

for giving and receiving bribes.

[tires squealing]

[brakes screech]

For the past 60 years,
you've worked hard to develop the economy.

Now, you can sit back and relax

for the rest of your life

in prison.

Chairman Kang and his son Sang-jin

were indicted
three days after their arrest.

They're probably coming for us next,
Prime Minister.

[exhales shakily]

It seems both heirs of Daejin Group
are currently in jail.

Tsk, tsk.

Two brothers in jail, what to do?

Whichever one gets released first

will probably inherit the company.

I've been thinking a lot
about Jo Sang-cheon.

About his family's murder.

[Dong-ho] I heard that you have children.

That's a relief.

At least someone
will get to continue in your work.

At this very moment,

the head of the United Front Department
of North Korea is in Moscow, Russia.

And with him,

our very own deputy director
of National Intelligence.

What?

Exactly what are you talking--

Why, they're meeting
to talk about the death of your father,

along with your half brother.

They wanted to know who ordered
the death of a North Korean hero.

[gulps]

For the South to survive,

the North needs to die.

[Dong-ho] And what was given
in return for the intel?

They'll ask for
an incredible amount of money.

Give them double. We will need their help.

[Dong-ho] How much did you gain
for the death of your father?

You're a hero.

Also, the North asked
for ten million for the job.

Send a wire to the NIS fund.

You can't…

Mm, uh…

If you give

public funds to North Korea, then--

I don't care. I'm already being charged
for murder, so what's another crime?

I don't think my sentence
can get any worse, do you?

When is the embargo being lifted?

[Jeong-yeon] Two o'clock, sir.

[TV beeps]

[man] Breaking news.

Recent reports state
that Assemblyman Jo Sang-cheon

requested the death of his father,
Jo Dal-hyeon, along with his family.

A high-ranking North Korean official
disclosed that Daejin Group

provided five million dollars
in response to Assemblyman Jo.

The NIS is currently analyzing
this information

obtained through HUMINT,
also known as Human Intelligence,

as they could have had severe…

-[siren blares]
-Father?! Can you hear me? Father!

"We were born into this land

with the historic mission
of reviving this nation."

I have dedicated my whole life,
40 years to serving our republic!

[high-pitch screech]

[reporter] Mr. Jo Sang-cheon?

[woman] The New Conservative Party
has expelled Assemblyman Jo Sang-cheon

following his involvement
regarding the murder of his family.

The National Assembly has proposed
a resolution for his expulsion,

while the Prosecutors' Office is currently
reviewing an emergency arrest warrant.

This is the end of an era.

[mysterious music playing]

It took much too long.

[Jang-seok] These were found

during the search and seizure
of the Constitutional Court.

They are the old trial records

on the family
of Constitutional Justice Min Sang-cheol.

You're the one who dug this up from
the department's archives, weren't you?

Alert security for me.

[suspenseful music playing]

From this moment on,
you're no longer a prosecutor.

You're an accomplice
to extortion and blackmail,

and you will be treated as such.

[Man-gil] Your cousin Jeong Pil-gyu
has been arrested.

The Prosecutors' Office is directing
its investigation towards us next.

[Dong-ho] Jeong Su-jin
is our top priority.

I really need her to… go down with me.

[phone vibrating]

PARK DONG-HO

Jeong Su-jin, I'll take you along

to hell.

[suspenseful music continues]

[cheering and applause]

[crowd chanting] Jang Il-jun! Jang Il-jun!

Jang Il-jun! Jang Il-jun!

[Il-jun laughing]

[Su-jin laughing]

[mysterious music playing]

[door opens]

On the day of President Jang's
inauguration, I was sitting right here.

You were sitting…

[sighs]

[Il-jun] Cheers!

-Cheers!
-Cheers!

[all chuckle]

[Dong-ho] You made a toast

that day.

And I still remember it.

Like this handkerchief,

may you comfort the citizens
and wipe away any tears!

[Dong-ho] A fair country.

A just world.

The ones who swore
they'd turn this world around

turned it into a living hell.

Now for your final task.

Go down with them.

Disappear with those 50 assemblymen
who received illegal campaign funds.

Disappear with the justices
who accepted bribes and disregarded

our constitution

and all for just
personal gain and influence.

If you disappear
with those corrupted jerks,

then maybe your ruin

will be somewhat worthwhile.

You won't escape justice.
This is your only chance to repent.

[phone vibrating]

SO-YEON

[So-yeon] Mom?

[footsteps]

[suspenseful music playing]

[door closes]

This is the home
of a sitting prime minister.

You can't just barge in here without--

I'll remember to knock
when I come here to take her to prison.

-So-yeon.
-[So-yeon] Mom.

Now for your final task.

[suspenseful music continues]

[Dong-ho] If you disappear
with those corrupted jerks,

then maybe your ruin

will be somewhat worthwhile.

You won't escape justice.
This is your only chance to repent.

You fought against the dictatorship.

Yet one could say they built the economy.

Why did you resist the coup that year?

One could say the government
was just trying to help our poor country.

You claim to care about this country,

but you're all just wolves
wearing sheep's clothing.

[keyboard clacking]

[suspenseful music continues]

[Yeon-sook] The cross-examination
of Daejin Group's Kang Sang-jin

and Assemblyman Jo Sang-cheon is today.

Both of their testimonies will say

Jeong Su-jin was the one
who connected them to North Korea.

They will also say Jeong Su-jin

was the one who bribed
Justice Min Sang-cheol.

Jeong Su-jin has no other options.

She can either disappear with them
or go down alone.

[Jeong-yeon panting]

Mr. President, Jeong Su-jin…

Jeong Su-jin, she, uh…

[suspenseful music intensifies]
