THE PLACES, CHARACTERS, ORGANIZATIONS, AND INCIDENTS IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTITIOUS.

[protestors chanting in distance]

[reporter] Mayor Ahn of Hosan City has been summoned by the prosecution.

Mayor Ahn Myeongja established a partnership

with an asset management company based in Hong Kong

and created a startup investment fund

with 280 billion won of Hosan City's finances.

Multiple civic groups based in Hosan City

have reported to the prosecution

that the asset management company, operating the fund, is a shell company.

A representative claimed the asset management company

is owned under a borrowed name by the eldest son

of an assemblyman who's been elected seven times.

The prosecution has already summoned...

-[crowd clamoring] -[camera shutters clicking]

I'll fully cooperate with the investigation.

[protestors yelling]

OUT WITH THIEF AHN MYEONGJA

TRACK AHN MYEONGJA'S ACCOUNTS

[protestors yelling in distance]

So the prosecution is saying

that I embezzled funds

intended for investments in our youth startups.

Is that correct?

Yes, that's right.

Sir,

there are young people dreaming

of becoming the next Bill Gates or Elon Musk in Hosan City.

Do you know how many?

I'm sure there are a lot.

You've only been working for the prosecution.

So you wouldn't know what's going on in the world.

But it really is sad and old-fashioned.

Isn't it our generation's duty to pave the way

for the young people who dream?

It would help if you thought bigger as a prosecutor.

[scoffs]

You're right, I don't know what's going on in the world these days,

but I am fully aware

that the overseas investment institution is a shell company based in The Bahamas,

which passed through Hong Kong.

Thinking big is a good thing, but isn't it...

too complicated?

You can't smoke in here.

I wondered where the media got their sources.

It was from the prosecution.

Seokhwan, we're alumni. What year did you graduate?

-Excuse me? -[Myeongja laughs]

What?

Did I upset you?

There's no need for formalities here.

You can just call me Myeongja.

Myeongja,

given that 280 billion won of the city's budget is involved,

shouldn't it be monitored?

Assuming 20% is the broker's commissioning fee

and 10% for operating the shell company,

they might pretend to execute a few projects to show the media

that they're performing well.

After a little promotion,

they'll end up with 80 billion won in profit.

Or maybe 90 billion won?

Seokhwan,

I'm destined to be the future president.

Privatizing the youth startup fund?

I'm someone who invests in public image.

My DNA is fundamentally different from other politicians'.

All of those young people will become my voters.

God... I know our country is a kingdom of prosecutors,

but I'm a mayor of over a million people. It seems like you underestimate me.

Ms. Ahn Myeongja,

don't underestimate the re-election.

[exhales]

Chief Prosecutor Koo Seokhwan,

you've been smirking while I was talking. You shouldn't do that.

I'm the type to spit on a smiling face.

Oh, right...

I've been curious about this. Did you vote for me?

[Seokhwan chuckles]

I can hardly remember now.

But I don't think I voted for you.

VIDEO INVESTIGATION ROOM

I knew it...

[theme music playing]

NO WAY OUT: THE ROULETTE

20 BILLION WON FOR NOTORIOUS CRIMINAL

MASKED MAN'S TARGET, KIM GUKHO

WHO'S THE MASKED MAN BEHIND THE HIT?

Look at the prosecutors who have developed a taste for politics.

They try to oppress opposing factions

for their own political purposes, and it's appalling.

The citizens aren't fools.

They can try to embellish themselves,

but historically, they are nothing more than a gang of power-hungry thugs.

I, Ahn Myeongja, will not lose.

I won't allow the vile mindset of these predatory wolves,

driven by a delusional sense of superiority and elitism,

to destroy the few remaining opportunities

that are left for our youth.

I, Ahn Myeongja,

will overcome this, not for my future...

EP04. EXIT STRATEGY

...but for the future of our young people.

[reporter] Do you deny the allegations?

[protestor 1] You call yourself a mayor?

[protestor 2] Just step down!

[protestor 3] Have you no pride?

[protestor 4] You look down on the people! You thief!

[protestor 5] Ahn Myeongja's a thief!

[ringing]

Sir, are you busy?

[assistant] Mr. Lee's at an event right now,

so he can't get on the phone.

Didn't you tell him I called?

I let him know.

The event is running over.

Tell him it's urgent and that I'll wait until he answers!

I'll tell him to call.

I said, I'll wait!

Go inside and tell him!

I'm sorry.

-[beeping] -[Myeongja] Damn it!

[exhales]

[phone vibrating]

What? I'm busy.

[Myeongja's husband] You make the prosecution

raid the school now?

-What? -These punks

are taking everything including irrelevant things!

What did they say?

Put the person in charge on!

Why would you take that? It's just a clock.

-Put them on! -Fucking hell.

You bastards...

This is Koo Seokhwan. Do you have any questions?

Hi, Seokhwan.

Should I go to your wife's place of work and cause a fuss?

You don't think I will?

Myeongja, that's not what we're doing.

We have a warrant. What are we supposed to do?

We have to pretend at least. That's the law.

[scoffs] The law?

Yeah, sure.

Do what you do best. Search my parents, siblings, and relatives.

I wouldn't be in politics if that scared me.

Mayor Ahn,

we're busy too.

But,

there are too many bad people in the world.

We're short on time, so cooperate

or bitch about it to the judge.

[beeping]

So he really wants to do this?

Okay.

Fucking okay! Fuck...

[host] Next, we'll present the appreciation plaques.

Please welcome Mr. Lee Bongsu, the representative of Gukmin Party.

[applause]

60TH ANNIVERSARY CEREMONY OF THE COUNCIL OF KOREAN INDUSTRIES

On behalf of our council, this plaque is presented to recognize

your outstanding political leadership and insight

that contributed to Korea's economic development...

[applause in distance]

Mayor Ahn...

Mayor Ahn.

Hey,

I'm in no mood to dance around with you.

I'm not fucking around, so move.

-Mayor Ahn! -Hey!

Are you insane? How dare you touch me?

Move.

[Bongsu] I would like to congratulate

the Council of Korean Industries on their 60th anniversary.

Isn't it true

that companies are the backbone of a country?

Every country has companies.

Companies must do well...

Yes, companies must do well for employees to prosper.

Also, employees...

Yes.

So in the end,

companies must do well for the people of our nation to prosper.

Yes...

Please, wait in the room.

[Bongsu] Hey, you couldn't stop her?

[assistant] I'm sorry. She was very stubborn.

Where's the salt? Bring it to me.

You punk.

How dare you come here after causing all that trouble?

And you call yourself a politician?

You should be afraid of what people might think.

Sir,

if we shared a meal together, shouldn't you help with the dishes?

What did you say?

Are you threatening me right now?

Of course not.

Isn't this why we have the political party?

People might think I took it all for myself.

[sighs]

Step down from your position and undergo the investigation.

I believe I've done

-as much as I could during this time. -[Myeongja laughs]

[Myeongja laughing]

[Myeongja] Sir,

I'm sorry, but I have a frozen shoulder.

I can't carry the burden. My shoulder hurts.

If you keep changing the judges and drag it out,

you'll get a suspended sentence.

You know

that this is the best you can do.

[exhales]

Wouldn't it be easier if I gave them the list of those who joined in?

[chuckles]

Myeongja.

Myeongja,

you can't give them that.

You'll go down too. Right?

[laughs]

Our party...

has changed its name several times

for over half a hundred years.

Do you think you're the first of your kind to come along?

[Myeongja chuckles]

Still, we survived.

We begged in the dirt,

banged our heads against the asphalt,

and did so much more.

The party continued to survive.

[Myeongja laughs]

What a touching story.

It's making me cry.

If you're going to betray the party, you'll need to brace yourself.

How terrifying.

Yes, sir.

Thank you for your answer.

-[scoffs] -[door closes]

She's become too pretentious.

[exhales]

[Byeongmin] My internal source says nothing was found at the school.

[Myeongja] They're just harassing us on purpose! Those assholes.

The internal source also says

the decision to detain you will be made within 48 hours.

[Myeongja sighs]

Did you grease up the media?

Yes, but as always, NTBC is being troublesome.

More importantly,

the media is fussing about the 20 billion won.

Thankfully, there's less attention on you.

"Thankfully," my fucking ass.

How will I get re-elected next year at this rate?

Exactly. The party could help a little at a time like this.

[Myeongja laughs]

Ah.

I think they abandoned me.

Pardon?

They asked me to take the blame and resign.

[Byeongmin sighs]

GRAND HOSAN HOTEL

[Myeongja] The view here is great.

I just noticed it today.

You're right.

-Here. -Okay.

-Byeongmin. -Yes?

Let's see it.

Yes.

It's about time we did it.

We need courage right now.

[exhales]

Boom, boom.

Boom, boom.

-[explosion] -[Byeongmin] Oh, my God!

[Myeongja gasps] What? What was that?

[Byeongmin] Mayor Ahn,

I think it was an explosion.

[Myeongja exclaims in frustration]

Damn it...

[ringing]

[stuttering] Director,

there was...

That's... That's Sanga-dong!

Something exploded around Sanga-dong!

Was it a gas explosion?

[Gwangyong] Yes, Mayor Ahn. We're checking now.

-We're contacting the local offices. -Don't call them! It's not that far!

Just go check it yourself!

Don't you have a car? Do you want mine?

-I am in front of Kim Gukho's home... -[siren wailing]

...where an explosion just occurred.

The scene looks like a battlefield right now.

It's very chaotic.

A short while ago, a car parked in front of Kim Gukho's house

suddenly exploded, resulting in casualties and injuries.

It's been reported that a citizen,

and a police officer, are among the casualties,

which is causing a shock.

The police have obtained witness statements

that an unidentified man crossed the police cordon

and ran towards the car just before the explosion.

They're investigating without

-ruling out terrorism. -[Joongsik] Gwangil.

[siren wailing]

[sighs]

Hey,

take care of Kim Gukho.

Okay. You take care of your wound.

[Joongsik sighs wearily]

[exhales]

[Joongsik breathing heavily]

[Gwangyong] Fortunately, there was no impact on the gas lines,

so no additional explosions are expected.

Nearby residential properties, two trees, three streetlights, one vehicle,

and one motorcycle have sustained damage.

The relevant department is assessing the exact extent of the damage.

[Myeongja] Is that all?

[Gwangyong] Excuse me?

Yes, as of now.

So to everyone here now,

the trees are important?

Why not investigate how many sidewalk blocks need to be replaced?

A bomb exploded.

How many people died or were hurt?

Where were they taken for treatment?

Were there enough ambulances and ERs?

Shouldn't we know these things instead?

[Gwangyong] Well...

Uh...

The police are currently compiling the figures now.

Well...

We're not sure what seri...

[virtual assistant] Yes, Gwangyong.

[Myeongja] Gwangyong?

Yes, ma'am.

Would you be like this if your family were hurt?

Aren't you all sitting here

getting texts and calls because it's not really your problem?

Get out there and get to work!

See how many citizens were hurt,

if they had enough ambulances,

and where they were hospitalized.

Stop talking about job responsibilities, departments, and the person in charge!

[all] Yes, ma'am.

All you do is say yes.

Everyone, get out there.

Do you not understand me?

Fuck! Get out!

[sighs]

[reporter on TV] Breaking news.

[Masked Man] Guys, I'm about to get pissed.

Do you think this is right? Do you?

I told you to kill Kim Gukho.

Did I tell you to set off a bomb where people were gathered?

Is this a war? Someone will fire missiles at this rate.

Damn it!

Starting now,

any injuries to civilians will be considered a foul, got it?

Even the Masked Man himself has expressed anger over situations,

such as the bombing incident,

-where civilians are harmed. -Are you having fun?

-[reporter] On the other hand... -Do you want some popcorn?

[reporter] ...there are negative comments about how the Masked Man

is skillfully avoiding responsibility.

The families of the deceased

and those who were injured by this explosion...

-Byeongmin? -Yes?

When one door closes, another one opens.

Excuse me?

[Myeongja] The heavens have dropped me a lifeline.

THE BEREAVED ENRAGED

[Byeongmin] What do you mean?

That asshole could become our savior.

"To protect the rights

of the citizens in Hosan city to live safely and happily,

the notorious criminal Kim Gukho

must be pushed out of the city."

The hero that protects the citizens.

How's that sound?

Yes, well, procedurally, there are no issues. However...

if the opposing party mentions human rights or the Constitution,

it could become controversial.

Byeongmin,

politics is all about timing and sense.

We must jump into the fire if there's an issue.

I'm in no position to be picky.

I have a knife to my throat.

Okay? The Constitution? Human rights?

Fuck all of that.

Hey,

one false move, and we have to live with our tail between our legs forever.

You and I jumped through hoops to get here. We can't turn back now.

There's no turning back. No way.

Never!

He'll go straight into surgery once he becomes stable.

Don't worry too much.

What if he dies?

No.

That won't happen.

[chuckles] Look at Gwangil's body.

He'll overcome this.

By the way, here.

-Use this for now. -No, it's fine.

-Eunsu. -Yes?

Say, "Thank you, Mister."

-Thank you. -Good job.

-Tell your mom to buy you something yummy. -Okay.

Please, you can accept this.

I feel so terrible.

Why would you feel that way?

We're sorry.

[sobbing]

Eunsu, sit down.

[exhales]

[phone vibrating]

JUHO

-Hey. -[Juho] Where are you?

Come see Gwangil's wife.

I'm coming up.

What about his surgery? Did he go in?

They say we have to wait until he's stable.

[slurping]

This fucking bitch.

EAR CLEANING SERVICE PRINCESSES' CHATTER

[woman shuddering]

-[woman] You're back. -Yes, hi.

A guest.

[Byeongmin] Are you Kim Gukho's legal representative?

-Yes, I am. -[gaming sounds on phone]

-I... -Crap!

Yes, let's go.

Sure.

[Sangbong] So, one billion won?

Yes, 200 million won a year, one billion won in total.

We'll pay you all in cash.

There's only one condition.

[Sangbong] You must leave Hosan City and not return for five years.

One billion won.

[Gukho scoffs] Fuck.

People just throw around money. One billion won?

I get what you're saying,

but why?

[Sangbong sighs]

Well, there's no politician who wants to see their district get chaotic.

[Gukho scoffs]

As long as I can take my son, I don't care where I go.

What do you think, Mr. Lee?

Well, I think you should...

play hard to get.

[Sanghun] Damn it.

[Taegeom] Chief Won!

We found him!

[Sanghun] Who?

[Taegeom] The Masked Man.

YouTV found his trace and sent it over.

That's better.

-Let him know. -Okay.

The file contained an IP address.

We've pinpointed the location.

-Is it Korea? -Yes, it's Hosan City.

-Where in Hosan? -[officer] Well, Hosan City...

Wait. We got the IP address, so why is it...

What? It just changed again!

What are you saying?

No, it's just... Well...

-Give me one more hour, sir. -[phone vibrating]

We almost got him!

What the hell are you saying?

[officer] Hey! What's going on?

What are you saying? Track it again, punk!

[Sanghun] Damn it. How disgraceful.

Goodness.

I'm sorry.

Ah.

Get the Criminal Division and request backup from special unit.

Still, we have to be the ones who catch him.

-Got it? -Yes, sir.

[knock on door]

Chief, you have a guest.

Who is it?

[Myeongja] Did you hear?

We'll handle the legal procedures.

That's my seat...

[Sanghun exhales]

All responsibilities for the security or protection

related to Kim Gukho will be assumed by Gangwon Provincial Police.

By the way,

did Kim Gukho say he'd leave?

You don't have to worry about that. He'll leave.

We're going to move him tonight,

so you just need to help transport him safely.

[sighs] But...

what if something happens during transport?

I'll take responsibility. Don't worry.

Responsibility is one thing,

but the citizens are watching.

Don't we have the same goal?

You, too, don't want any trouble happening on your turf, do you?

We might catch the culprit soon.

Then there's no reason to move him. It only increases the risk.

Then catch him!

Catch the culprit.

Just delay the announcement to the media a little bit.

It's a win-win situation for us both.

I become a hardworking mayor who only thinks of the citizens.

You become a competent police officer who protects the citizens.

Well?

What about the reporters?

They'll be there on time.

Some cable channels are missing, but it won't really matter.

Transport vehicle, police forces.

The more the better, okay?

Make sure to get a good photo angle.

-What about content creators? -I recruited them.

Reporters these days have no power.

Hire anyone who can make the biggest impact.

Tell them we'll pay handsomely.

Okay. Mayor Ahn, I was wondering,

can we push it back two hours?

Why?

Wouldn't it be better to sync it with the evening news?

You get there first and do some strategic maneuvering.

It'll be more dramatic.

Okay, not bad.

Good idea!

[lead protestor] Let's drive Kim Gukho out of Hosan City!

[protestors] Drive him out! Drive him out!

[lead protestor] Let's drive Kim Gukho out of Hosan City!

[protestors] Drive him out! Drive him out!

[protestors] Go to hell! Go to hell!

[lead protestor] The government should take responsibility

and protect the citizens!

[protestors] Protect the citizens! Protect the citizens!

Mister! Is someone coming today?

[lead protestor] Protect the citizens!

[protestors] Protect the citizens! Protect the citizens!

-[Myeongja] Is it ready? -Ma'am.

HBS is still on their way. There's a lot of traffic.

How are those reporters slower than YouTV streamers?

-What about the others? -They're all ready.

Then let's just start. Their news starts at 9:00 p.m. anyway.

Yes, let's go.

[sighs]

OUR DEEPEST CONDOLENCES FROM MAYOR AHN MYEONGJA

[protestors clamoring]

-[man 1] The mayor's here? -[man 2] You're right.

[man 3] What are you doing?

[man 4] You should be ashamed!

[man 5] What do you think you're doing?

[woman 1] Just get out of here.

-[man 3] What took you so long to come? -[woman 2] How could a mayor...

[indistinct chatter]

-Lee Sangho was 21 years old. -[chatter stops]

He was scheduled to be discharged from the military police next month.

Park Inhye was 32 years old.

She had quit her job last month...

[crying] ...and was preparing for her trip to Spain.

-[Myeongja sniffs] -[camera shutters clicking]

Last night,

our friends and family died or were hurt here.

People we never should've lost.

I think

this could've been prevented!

If only Kim Gukho wasn't here!

[man 7] What's she saying?

[indistinct chatter]

Right now,

I'm not here as the mayor of Hosan City.

I'm here as a friend and family member of Lee Sangho and Park Inhye.

I promise you all.

I will send Kim Gukho

out of Hosan City!

[protestors clapping, cheering]

A criminal's human rights!

Constitutional rights!

[crowd continues to cheer, applaud]

How many more friends and family members must we lose over such trivial reasons?

Why should we make these sacrifices?

[protestors] Hear, hear!

[protestors] Hear, hear!

Kim Gukho!

Let's talk!

Please, talk to me!

I will not leave this place

until you have a talk with me!

[protestors clapping, cheering]

[protestors chanting] Ahn Myeongja! Ahn Myeongja!

Ahn Myeongja! Ahn Myeongja!

Ahn Myeongja! Ahn Myeongja!

Wow, this politician is incredible.

[scoffs] It's just crocodile tears.

[Gukho] She knows how to put on a show.

[assistant] Mayor Ahn, here's a cushion.

[protestors chanting] Ahn Myeongja! Ahn Myeongja!

Ahn Myeongja! Ahn Myeongja!

Ahn Myeongja! Ahn Myeongja!

MAYOR AHN MYEONGJA FACES OFF WITH NOTORIOUS DEMON

Okay.

AVAILABLE 24/7 NATIONWIDE FOR ALL TYPES OF EVENTS

-Hello. -Hey.

Where's the kid?

She'll be here soon. She had to pee.

-She'll be here soon. -The kid is the key here.

Make her rehearse again.

-Yes, sir. -[Byeongmin] Where's the letter?

Uh, right here.

MAYOR AHN, YOU CAN DO IT. THANK YOU!

Okay. Everyone, focus.

Don't come at once. It'll be obvious.

Don't ask the mayor questions.

Don't take pictures even if someone asks.

Got it?

[all] Yes, sir.

Don't worry. They're all professionals. [chuckles]

[Byeongmin] Is that so?

And the kid's mom?

Lady? That's you.

Yes, that's me.

It's cold, isn't it?

It's only going to get colder, so bring the blanket.

Make sure to remind the kid to cover the mayor with it. Hmm?

-Answer. -Yes, sir.

Good luck!

[man 1] Why won't he come out?

Who do you think you are? How could you make the mayor wait?

Come out!

[officer] You can't come this way.

[man 2] Good luck, Mayor Ahn!

-[man 3] You can do it, Mayor Ahn! -[man 2] You got this!

[man 4] We believe in you, Mayor Ahn!

Thank you, Mayor Ahn. Good luck!

[Myeongja] Oh!

-[crowd cheering] -[camera shutters clicking]

-I promise I'll win! -Okay!

Thank you so much!

-[man 5] You can do it! -[woman 1] Good luck!

[protestors chanting] Ahn Myeongja! Ahn Myeongja!

Ahn Myeongja! Ahn Myeongja!

Citizens are raising their voices in support of Mayor Ahn Myeongja

who is on her knees and remains unmoved demanding a meeting with Kim Gukho.

Let's connect to the reporter who's at the scene now.

Reporter Lee Nara.

Has Kim Gukho responded yet?

Yes, there have been no signs of response so far.

According to her staff, Mayor Ahn's determination is strong,

and she plans to continue all night if she has to.

-[gate clangs open] -[reporter] Despite the harsh cold...

-[man 6] Look! -[woman 2] The door's open!

-Kim Gukho has just made an appearance. -[crowd clamoring]

[reporter] I will continue to provide updates

on whether he'll respond to Mayor Ahn.

This was Lee Nara with SBY.

[Gukho] Lady!

Come up here so we can talk!

Come on up!

[Myeongja grunting]

[assistant] Goodness!

[Myeongja] I'm fine.

I'm fine!

I'm fine!

-[protestors] Ahn Myeongja! Ahn Myeongja! -Thank you!

I'll be right back!

[protestors chanting] Ahn Myeongja! Ahn Myeongja!

Ahn Myeongja! Ahn Myeongja!

Ahn Myeongja! Ahn Myeongja!

Ahn Myeongja! Ahn Myeongja!

[Myeongja grunts]

[man 7] You can do it!

[applause, cheering]

Isn't it cold? Come on in.

Yes, first...

Let me sit.

[groans] I was on my knees.

Ah, my knees! Ow!

[exclaims] It's cold in here too.

[sighs] I swear,

my body isn't what it used to be.

Back in the day, I'd be fine after rolling around over asphalt all day.

It's -14°C, and for hours you've been...

Even people in high positions have a hard life.

[sighs] Life itself is a workout.

-Sorry? -A workout.

Exercise.

-[Gukho laughing] Ah! -[Sangbong laughs]

Just take what you need. You'll have everything there.

I know it's Gangwon-do, but it's not that rural.

A lady will come regularly to clean too.

I know because I lived there a few months.

The air's nice. Once the flowers start to bloom in spring,

you can go fishing and hiking. You can do it all.

Do you like fishing?

Fishing's nice.

But shouldn't we talk about the money?

I thought that was settled with your attorney?

I've learned that having a middleman makes things run less smoothly.

Right, of course.

[sighs]

[grunts]

You'll receive 200 million won every year.

A total of one billion won in five years.

It'll be untraceable cash.

So don't worry about taxes.

There are no other conditions.

Don't come near Hosan City for five years.

That's free money for me. But let me ask you something.

What do you get in return?

I get their favor.

Whose?

[sighs] When I was elected Mayor,

I spent a little over two billion won.

At the time, I received 177,000 votes...

Wait, it was 177,531 votes.

It was 11,000 won per vote.

That's what you call "cost per vote."

How many people will be happy to see you out of Hosan City?

Everyone, probably.

[Myeongja chuckles]

If you calculate it,

I can recoup the billion won I spent with just 100,000 people.

But I'm betting that it'll exceed 100,000.

That's such a good deal.

You're good.

But...

shouldn't I play a little more hard to get?

-Well? -You're right.

-[Sangbong] Shall we play hard to get? -[Gukho] What do you think, ma'am?

[all laughing]

[Myeongja] Funny.

I don't think it'll end here.

Once we've established a relationship, we'll continue to work together.

Do you think I'll be the mayor forever?

I'm not that half-hearted.

I plan to go all the way.

-All the way. -[Sangbong snickers]

Let's do this.

[chuckles dryly]

No need to shake hands.

[Myeongja grunts]

We're in the same boat now.

[crowd clamoring]

-[crowd cheering] -[camera shutters clicking]

[woman] Here comes the mayor!

-[man] What happened? -[reporter] Mayor Ahn has just

come out of the house.

But we don't see Kim Gukho right now.

[voice recording] You'll receive 200 million won every year.

A total of one billion won in five years.

It'll be untraceable cash.

So don't worry about taxes.

There are no other conditions.

Don't come near Hosan City for five...

My client

would like to change the terms of the agreement.

[reporter] She's speaking with the attorney now.

[Gukho] I mean, who knows when I'll die, right?

One billion in five years seems like a bit of a loss for me.

Think about it.

There's a 20-billion-won bounty on my head.

You bastard!

-You piece of shit! -[Sangbong] Stop.

-No, no! Don't! [exclaims] -[Myeongja groans]

How can someone as educated as you curse like that?

[Gukho] What the fuck was that?

-[Myeongja] Damn it! -Come on.

[Sangbong] Now, calm down.

Mayor Ahn?

Mayor Ahn?

Let's do ten billion won in five years.

[Myeongja laughing]

I know that amount won't even be a burden for someone like you.

-Damn it! -By the way,

-[Myeongja grunts] -I did my military service in Gangwon.

I would feel very frustrated going back there.

I know I'll have to try to make do.

Do you know the eastern mountain regions?

I mean... Where did you do your military service?

-That's not important. -Where?

-Near Hyangnobong, Gangwon. -Hyangnobong?

Yes.

I was near the toughest pass.

Which division? The 12th division?

Yes.

-That area is so fucking cold! Seriously. -[Myeongja grunts]

That's not South Korea! It's North Korea! It's Siberia!

It is very cold.

You see,

it may look shabby with the broken heater,

but I like my house.

I like it here, Mayor Ahn.

[Myeongja laughs]

Hey.

Seriously?

Are you guys trying to screw me over right now? Huh?

No, that's not what we're doing.

-We just want to do business. -[Myeongja laughs]

[Sangbong] I mean,

we could be something like knee guards for you. [laughs]

Here. Take this with you.

[Myeongja sighs]

[camera shutters clicking]

She's no joke.

Seriously.

Mayor Ahn, this way.

[crowd clamoring]

[protestors chanting] Ahn Myeongja! Ahn Myeongja!

Mayor Ahn,

shouldn't we pay him first?

Let's give him something

-and buy time to think. -Hey,

the ten billion won isn't the issue right now.

Those assholes will have me by the leash forever.

[phone vibrating]

WE'LL CONSIDER THE DEAL OFF IF YOU DON'T SEND THE MONEY BY TODAY

FROM LEE SANGBONG

Damn it!

[Myeongja sighs]

Shall we just kill him?

What kind of stupid nonsense is that?

The entire world is watching him!

Will you kill him?

[Byeongmin] No.

[exhales]

[panting] Move out of the way!

Chief! We found him!

There!

Over there! It's that building!

[Taegeom] Where?

-[Sanghun] Are you sure? -[officer] Yes, sir.

Send all the troops!

[all] Yes, sir.

[♪ dramatic music playing]

-[Suchang] Let's go. -[officers] Yes, sir.

[exhales]

Send up the forensics team.

KIM GUKHO

20 BILLION WON

KILL

KIM GUKHO

20 BILLION WON, KILL

"Kill."

What is this?

[roulette whirring]

KIM GUKHO

20 BILLION WON

KILL

Is this right?

I don't know.

There are power lines under here.

Did he tamper with the machine?

[beeping]

[♪ intense music playing]
