BAD GUYS

BAD GUYS

Look at you, being interviewed.

Oh, it's not a big deal. Have a good day, sir.

Here, right? Okay.

I'm Detective Nam Geun-wook. Violent Crimes Unit 2, Dobok Police.

I'm 34 years old.

I handle most of the high-profile cases in Dobok-dong.

It began about six months ago in the northeastern part of Seoul.

The killer snatches women off the streets on rainy days.

I'm staking out the area where the previous cases occurred.

So it's a serial murder case. Aren't you scared?

Have you ever had this thought?

The thought that you may never get to see your family again.

Oh, over there.

Look. That's a knife, right?

Damn it.

You see, when you're a cop,

you often meet scumbags who make you think,

"I'll have to risk my life to catch this guy."

"He's not some stupid petty criminal."

"I may never see

my wife

or my son again."

Stop, you bastard!

But you see, no one here

wants to risk their lives on the job.

If we die...

Who will protect our families?

Who will protect them?

Detective Nam.

Detective Nam!

The news about a police detective who was killed

while chasing a murder suspect is sending shock waves across the country.

The victim was known for his dedication

to bringing criminals to justice and to ensuring public safety.

His death has sparked a wave of public mourning.

Many are expressing the need

for a solution to handle sophisticated criminals...

Grandpa.

Min-joon.

Do not...

end up like your father.

Do you understand?

Where is Oh Gu-tak?

Oh Gu-tak, that nutjob? Why do you ask?

CRAZY DOGS

EPISODE 1

This is the lesson we learned from the Dobok case.

The police are still inadequately equipped

to handle criminal sociopaths and psychopaths.

Most of the 100,000 officers didn't join the force to protect and serve citizens.

Rather, it was just a career path they chose to have a stable job.

Sadly, that is the current reality of our police force.

Then what should we do?

You're saying the police are ill-equipped to catch dangerous criminals, right?

Then do we have an alternative?

We must make sure citizens aren't exposed to all sorts of dangerous crimes.

Yes, I agree.

You're absolutely right.

Is there an alternative, Senior Inspector Yoo?

If you're asking my opinion, I'd say...

So? What have you been up to?

Have some soup. Don't drink on an empty stomach.

You're not so young anymore, you know. Look after your health...

As if you care. Why don't you go say that to your wife?

Anyway, what do you want?

Would you like to be reinstated?

Why would you want me back? They all think I'm crazy.

Remember my son? Geun-wook.

What about him?

Did his wife leave him?

Most sons say they don't want to grow up like their fathers,

but Geun-wook was never like that.

He always said, "I want to be a police officer like you."

A few days ago,

he died.

He was stabbed and killed in the line of duty.

I had to bury my own child.

That reckless fool...

So?

You want to let this mad dog off the leash

to catch the scumbag who killed your son?

Is that it?

Capture him and bring him to me

in one piece.

Then what?

Are you going to skin him yourself?

If you manage to solve this case,

I'll help you get rid of all your pent-up anger and rage

so you can get on with your life.

You have my word.

If you beat up a good guy, it's violence.

But if you beat up a bad guy,

it's justice.

Everyone calls Oh Gu-tak the Crazy Dog.

He's vicious and tends to use excessive force.

When he comes across a real bastard,

he doesn't even listen to his higher-ups, let alone his colleagues.

He snarls and bites right away.

Hence, the nickname.

Because of him, a number of officers

were caught taking bribes and had to resign in disgrace.

But he's not naive. He can clean up his own mess.

Give him some time. He'll crack the case soon.

If you manage to solve this case,

I'll help you get rid of all your pent-up anger and rage

so you can get on with your life.

You have my word.

-Hey! -What?

What? What are you looking at?

-Nothing. Don't mind us. -You little...

What did I do?

If you beat up a good guy, it's violence.

But if you beat up a bad guy,

it's justice.

-What are you looking at? -Nothing.

Why are you doing this?

-Let go of me! -Shouldn't we stop him?

Shut it, you idiot.

Who the heck was that?

What's your problem?

Please stop. That's enough, sir. He'll die at this rate.

Let's round up a few crazy dogs.

Two years ago, the East Side Gang took over Seoul.

Guess how many days it took.

It only took 25 days.

One district a day.

From Guro to Nowon, they took over the entire city.

This guy did it. Park Woong-chul.

He got caught as soon as they took over the city.

He was sentenced to 28 years and is serving time in Daejeon Prison.

Who is it?

Sorry?

Who did that to your face?

How's he doing in there?

Can he be rehabilitated?

Give me a break.

This isn't a movie.

Should we approve it, sir?

Let me hear the rest. Who's next?

Jung Tae-su.

A contract killer.

Jung Tae-su is a contract killer.

As for his victims and why or how he killed them,

nothing's known.

The same goes for his past.

What put him behind bars?

A murder.

He turned himself in.

He showed up at the precinct with the victim's blood on his shirt.

Crazy bastard.

He was sentenced to 22 years and is in Jeonju Prison now.

Then who's the last one?

It's someone you know very well, sir.

The Hwayeon-dong killer from two years ago.

Lee Jung-moon?

He had an IQ of 165 at the age of 12.

He was the youngest Mensa member

and the youngest Ph.D. holder in philosophy and mathematics.

But do you know what's more mind-boggling?

He is the youngest

serial killer.

From December 2011 to August 2012,

he killed a total of 15 people.

But at the crime scenes,

there were no fingerprints whatsoever.

Not a single strand of hair.

A shoe print? None, of course.

In other words, Lee Jung-moon is a killer

who leaves no trace behind.

He does leave one thing behind.

The victim's lifeless body.

Is he a psychopath?

You know about the PCL-R test, right? The psychopath test.

He scored 38 out of 40.

Why them, of all people?

They're like vicious animals.

We'll need Park's muscles and Jung's skills.

Lee's got the brains.

If the three of them join forces, they can catch anyone in the world.

You see, animals enjoy being petted.

And they can be obedient.

I think it's too risky, sir.

Weren't you the one that went on air saying the police aren't equipped

to catch bad guys on their own?

Right, but I never suggested we do something like this.

Unleashing beasts to catch the likes of them...

Pass me that.

What's wrong?

Is it gross?

Sorry?

They look disgusting, so you don't even want to touch them.

And of course, you'd never eat them.

Right?

I'm not quite following, sir.

They may look gross, but you can't catch fish without them.

I'll take care of everything, so just have them released.

SEOUL

Where are you taking us?

I thought I was being transferred.

Is your mouth glued shut? Answer me, you prick.

I've memorized your face. You're dead meat now.

You shouldn't drink on an empty stomach.

Commissioner Nam said

that you're the fishing hook, and Park, Jung and Lee are the bait.

Did he have to say it in such a convoluted way?

He wants you to hook the bait securely so you can catch some big fish.

I look forward to working with you.

Let's forgo the formalities. It makes me cringe.

What are you doing?

Are you going to nap?

Then what?

Must I keep you entertained until they arrive?

Wake me up when they're here.

One more thing.

Don't think that you can boss me around just because you outrank me.

All the high-ranking pricks who tried to boss me around

learned their lesson the hard way.

Put it on.

What's with these clothes?

Are you going to bury me somewhere after dressing me like a civilian?

You little punk. I'm talking to you.

What's with these clothes?

You're on leave.

"On leave"? What am I, a soldier?

Just do as I say and get changed, you twerp.

I was just asking. Why are you getting annoyed with me?

Don't raise your voice at me.

The mess that I'm in

already drives me nuts as it is.

Be nice, okay?

Smile.

All right. I'll get changed, Officer.

MINISTRY OF JUSTICE EMERGENCY TRANSPORT

Who are you?

Who are you?

I asked you first, you little punk.

Don't raise your hand against me.

You could die.

What the...

Here, I did it again. What will you do?

Shall I teach you a lesson, kid?

-Where... -That's enough.

Who are you, missy?

I'm not your "missy."

I am Senior Inspector Yoo Mi-young.

From now on, you two are under my watch.

The last one's running late, so let's get started.

Follow me.

Is she confident or just plain rude?

What the heck is happening?

That little...

Take a seat.

Let's get started.

These are details regarding the murders that started in December of last year

in the northeastern part of Seoul.

So far, eight victims have been reported.

Read them over.

Why are you showing us all this?

What do you think?

You have to catch the killer.

Goodness. I almost laughed out loud.

Is this a joke? Are you that bored?

You think that badge makes you some hotshot cop?

Hey, thug.

Sit down if you don't want to get hurt.

-Come on. Let's have some fun. -Let's hear her out.

Don't be a moron.

Why does this prick keep talking to me?

Shut your stinking trap, jerk.

Stop.

Stop what?

It was getting interesting.

Keep going.

Listen to me while you're at it.

If one of you manages to catch the serial killer,

we'll knock five years off.

Wasn't that what you wanted to say?

Why couldn't you just say it?

They may look like they're not listening, but it's just an act.

Right?

One thing. It doesn't mean you'll both get the deal once he's caught.

It's only for the person who catches him.

If Woong-chul catches him, Tae-su won't get the deal.

We live in a winner-take-all world.

I hope you understand.

Any questions?

No?

Then go back to what you were doing.

Who are you, mister?

Go on. Just continue what you were doing.

I'll deal with you later.

Who is he?

He's Captain Oh Gu-tak. He'll supervise you alongside me.

Oh, you're a cop too?

Hey, mister. You want us to do what?

Are you senile?

"Senile"?

That'd be nice.

It is painful to remember everything.

This offer... Can we trust him on it?

Yes.

You can legally let us out until we catch this bastard?

Correct.

But there are a few conditions.

Like what?

No drinking. No women. No driving.

No violence. No weapons.

These are the conditions.

You're not allowed to do much.

But you know what? Screw it.

How can you live without a drink?

Captain Oh.

However, there is one rule you must obey even if it's insulting.

Senior Inspector Yoo.

What's this? A watch?

You want us to be punctual?

Insulting, indeed.

Because it's digital?

It's an ankle monitor.

An ankle monitor?

You mean, the kind that sex offenders have to wear?

Jeez, I can't believe this.

If anyone sees this, they will think I'm a rapist.

You must be mistaken if you think you have a choice.

Do we have to comply to everything just because we're convicts?

Man, this is nuts.

I can't agree to this.

Even convicts have basic human rights.

As they say, "Hate the sin and not the sinner."

Sinners are those who have sinned.

How could we not hate them?

Tae-su, you committed murder.

That's why you're hated.

And you, Woong-chul. The crimes you committed,

such as assault, kidnapping, unlawful confinement, and so on,

are the very reason you're hated.

You want to talk about your human rights?

You can demand your rights once you're released.

For now, just be grateful and take whatever we give you,

unless you want to be in hot water.

Mister, I really don't like your tone.

Hey.

Who do you think you are?

Look. I'm being all nice and polite, which is very unlike me.

If you keep this up, we're going to have a problem.

Hey, you got a death wish?

Park Woong-chul, you bastard.

Don't even bark if you can't bite,

or you'll get bitten first and bleed to death.

I can't believe this.

What is your deal?

Give it a rest.

Hello.

Captain Oh.

Officer.

What is it?

LPG STATION

Get out.

Why you little...

That's what happened.

Oh, boy. He must've hit you hard.

Did he steal money or anything else?

-No. -Are you hurt?

That's not important. I can't believe I lost him...

Looks like you hurt your shoulder.

I'm really sorry.

We should get you treated first.

-No, it's okay. -It's not okay.

You're clearly hurt.

Take a look.

If you leave it untreated, you'll suffer when you get older.

Your nose. Did he hit you there?

Yes, obviously.

When you get hit in the nose, the skin usually doesn't tear like that.

Blood would gush out.

So what's with that little gash?

And didn't he hit you with a toilet tank lid?

So how come your head is okay?

Is your head...

made of steel?

How much do you make a month?

Probably about three to four million won at your level.

One of my neighbors runs a corner store.

Another neighbor runs a laundromat.

And my next-door neighbor runs an Internet cafe.

They are all tax-paying citizens.

And taxpayers are the ones that pay your salary.

They're the ones who feed and clothe you with their hard-earned money,

so the least you can do is tell the truth.

You're disrespecting them by lying.

I'm not lying.

You're denying it, but your body says otherwise.

What's the problem here?

His lying mouth.

Right, his lying mouth is the problem.

Then let's just rip out his darn mouth.

I need you to tell the truth so I can go catch that punk.

How did Lee Jung-moon escape?

This one will tell us.

He'll tell us.

This man punched me and threatened me to...

When did I punch you? I was just playing with you.

Here, your hat.

Now, tell us.

How did Lee Jung-moon escape?

He said he needed to use the restroom, so we pulled into this gas station.

-I need to buy some cigarettes. -Sure.

Go for it.

Is it number two? Gosh.

Hurry up, okay?

-Scream. -What?

I said, scream.

Are you okay? Where is he?

Hand over the keys.

It's been exactly two hours since Lee escaped.

It's a nationwide search.

We must get him first or we're screwed.

Did we say we were in? I don't like your bossy tone.

"We"?

-What? So you're in? -How many years did you get?

I got 28 years.

You don't want to die in prison, do you?

Then catch Lee Jung-moon, at all costs.

Do we get the same deal for this guy too?

We'll knock four years off.

Only if you catch him.

Okay, fine.

But it's really embarrassing to wear this.

Hand it over.

Is it okay to beat up people if I wear this?

Just don't kill anyone.

That I cannot guarantee.

Consider this a warm-up drill.

Do you think you can catch Lee?

We have a deal.

I'm positive he will look for a woman named Yang Yoo-jin.

She could've become his last victim before he was caught.

He was sentenced to life because of her testimony.

She was the woman he loved.

I'm coming for you.

This guy is Lee Jung-moon?

Why? Do you know him?

So, where is this woman?

I don't know.

She dropped off the face of the earth as soon as he was convicted.

However, I know someone who probably knows where she is.

Hey, I can only give you an hour.

Can you do it?

I'll get the job done, so just clean up the mess.

I can be quite messy.

So you're sure Lee will try to track down Yang Yoo-jin?

How do you know so much about Lee's case?

I think you're hiding something from me.

Can we really trust Park Woong-chul and Jung Tae-su?

Do you know what one needs to live like a decent human being?

Desperation.

We won't find anyone who's more desperate than those two.

Trust me.

You think they're ready to live like decent human beings?

Break the ankle tag, and you can run.

Need a hand?

Where will I hide in this tiny country?

I'd rather get my sentence reduced.

You or me?

Me.

We're not open today.

Where is Ma Sung-bum? Let me see your face!

Look at this scumbag. It's the middle of the afternoon.

What are you looking at?

Hey, I'm looking for a girl who worked here two years ago. Yang...

What was her name?

Yang Yoo-jin.

Right, Yang Yoo-jin. Where is she now?

Are you a cop?

I hate cops.

-Me again? -No, my turn.

I'm looking for someone.

You know Yang Yoo-jin, right?

Ma Sung-bum said you took her.

He sold her off to pay back the loan sharks.

Boys.

Who are you?

I won't ask you twice.

Where is she?

Exactly 52 minutes.

So? Where is Yang Yoo-jin?

They sold her off to a faraway town.

I don't know how much he owed, but anyway...

It's like the story of Chun-hyang.

Wait, was it Sim-cheong?

The girl who was sold off for a sack of rice.

So, where is she?

Where is she now?

Yeonsan-dong.

Hey, man. It's me Woong-chul.

Park Woong-chul, idiot. Who's Kim Woong-chul?

That's right.

No, I'm not out yet. I'm still serving time.

It's kind of complicated. I'll explain later.

Anyway, are you still in Busan? Great.

Do you still know all the bar girls in Busan?

Did you find her?

I see. Hey, write this down.

Yeonsan-dong, Unit 203 at Hana Apartments.

Get her number.

Who is it?

Here's the phone.

Who is it?

I'm here to check your meter.

The gas meter?

Hello?

-Ms. Yang Yoo-jin? -Yes.

This is Senior Inspector Yoo Mi-young. Do you know Lee Jung-moon?

Lee Jung-moon is...

Hello? Ms. Yang. He's on his way there now.

Are you there, Ms. Yang? Hello?

Long time no see.

Are you there? Ms. Yang!

Hello?

Hello? Ms. Yang.

Yang Yoo-jin!

How did you find me?

How did you know I was here?

Do you...

feel bad?

Why?

Me?

Why would I feel bad?

The lead detective on my case

told me that you felt bad for me.

Why?

Why do you feel bad for me?

I do not feel bad for you at all.

Don't you remember?

You tried to kill me.

Why should I feel bad when you tried to kill me?

You said...

I tried to kill you,

but I really don't remember.

HANA

It must be that building.

Who do you think will catch him?

Not you.

Well, it's not you either.

-Shall we? -Let's go.

Hey.

Let me catch this prick, okay?

-Try. -You little...

What are you guys doing?

Lee Jung-moon?

Did you get a tan?

He's got a dark tan.

Did I

really try to kill you?

Then what about all those people you killed?

Do you remember killing them?

You killed these people, didn't you?

Hey! You killed them!

You murdered them all, you psycho!

I'll say this again.

I really...

don't remember.

I didn't kill them.

That's why everyone says that you're a psychopath!

Please believe me.

I didn't kill anyone, Yoo-jin.

You're wrong.

I saw it.

I saw your face.

I saw everything.

Yoo-jin.

Happy is dead.

Yoo-jin...

I'm really sad.

You said you sometimes

forget things that happened even an hour ago.

It began when you witnessed your parents' death.

Your doctor said it was probably because of the trauma you experienced.

All those times you blacked out,

you were out murdering people!

-That's not true. -It is true.

You murdered those people and even tried to kill me.

It was all you!

Tell me the truth. You killed your parents, didn't you?

You killed them and you're acting like you don't remember.

I said it wasn't me.

That moron. It was Hana Studios, not Hana Apartments.

Hurry up!

Darn it.

I'm going to kill this prick.

Wait up. I've got a leg cramp.

You'd better remember this.

Don't you dare forget that you're the one who killed me.

Do you understand?

-It's this unit. -Hold on.

Fine.

Let's die together.

Jung-moon!

Where are you?

I'm looking for you. Where are you?

Answer me, you punk!

What are you doing?

We're trying to capture him, but she's about to get killed.

We have no choice. We have to save her first.

Goodness, look who's here. Hey, buddy.

What's going on? Are you going to kill her?

If you kill her, you really are doomed.

If you get shot, it'll hurt quite a bit.

Do you want to get shot? Or will you come with us?

All right. Looks like I'll have to shoot you first.

Captain Oh!

Woong-chul. That's Lee Jung-moon!

Hi, Jung-moon.

About what happened earlier, don't take it personally.

I got caught up in the moment and pulled the trigger.

Jung-moon.

There's no point in scooping out water when there's a flood. Just swim.

That way, you're more likely to survive.

That lady will fill you in on the details.

If you're interested, meet me at the pub.

I told Captain Oh that we should send you back to prison,

but he keeps saying that he needs you.

Although I don't know why.

So let me ask you one more time.

Don't you want to live a decent life for once?

I was running at full speed, and that punk suddenly fell from the sky.

Like Jack and the Bean Sprouts in Aesop's Fables.

Jack and the Beanstalk.

Are you sure about that? I'm positive it's "Bean Sprouts."

No, it's "Beanstalk."

Idiot. You're so dumb.

Goodness.

You're not wrapping up yet, right?

Take a seat.

You can catch the next one.

Of course.

And you...

Well done, buddy.

What? Women can drink too.

This won't be easy,

but we're a team now.

Good teamwork? I don't expect that from you guys.

A good rapport?

As if.

There is only one thing I ask of you.

There are scumbags who don't deserve to be called human.

Get them like a pack of hounds and tear them to shreds.

Do you know why people are afraid of crazy dogs like us?

If we bite, they die.

Raise your glasses. Tonight, we drink.

Starting tomorrow, we'll track down that serial killer who targets women.

Let's catch him first.

-Okay? -Sounds good.

Why did you decide to take this on?

And why did you choose Park Woong-chul, Jung Tae-su, and Lee Jung-moon?

You see, I did some research and found something interesting.

They were put behind bars around the same time.

Park was incarcerated in June of 2012.

July and September 2012 in Jung and Lee's cases.

And one more thing.

You were suspended in August that year.

Did they have something to do with...

I said, you're not my boss!

BAD GUYS

Is she that important to you?

Are you all right?

You killed me, and she saved me.

Why is he killing people?

The stench of blood.

Help! My mom is...

This was not the first time.

If I want to beat him, I have to kill a lot at once.

He has an impulse to smell blood when it rains.

Is he going after the survivors of the hidden murders?

What's with the mood?

Aren't we going to catch this scumbag?

It's raining. One more, and he's number one.

There's one survivor left.

You keep watch over her.

Don't hide even if you're scared.

That is what I want to do.

Where did that scumbag go?

I will catch him no matter what.
