BAD GUYS

BAD GUYS

A group of organ traffickers was arrested on the 29th

for illegal organ trade in the Yeongdeungpo area.

Yang, a man in his 30s, who has been actively involved in organ trade,

is a member of an underground organ and human trafficking ring,

whose brutality is sending shock waves across the country.

Even if the police apprehend the suppliers,

it'll be very difficult to figure out how the entire organization operates.

The fact that anyone can fall prey to organ traffickers

is spurring fear among civilians.

TOO MANY BAD GUYS

EPISODE 4

I've memorized your faces. You're all dead meat.

Yes, I understand.

Got it. Let's do that.

Long time no see, Woong-chul.

Boss.

PRIVATE DETECTIVE AGENCY

I'm looking for someone.

Well, that is my specialty.

Who are you looking for? A debtor on the run?

Did your wife run away?

Do I have to tell you?

No. You don't have to tell me the details.

But I do need some information on this person.

Joo Jung-gook, a man in his late 30s.

-Late 30s... -He's between 175 and 180 cm tall.

He's slim and has a scar on his forehead.

He was a private detective until two years ago.

So he's in this line of work.

Where did he work?

Here.

Please help me.

This is new.

I've never met anyone who asked to be tailed.

Well, put your worries to rest. I'll record everything.

We'll find out...

if you're really murdering people or not.

Stop pacing back and forth. You're driving me crazy.

How could I sit still right now?

We haven't been able to reach Park Woong-chul for three hours.

Why are you so worried when we can track his ankle monitor?

You don't get it, do you? This whole project could be at risk.

You think he's going to put this project at risk.

Is that what you're trying to say?

It's certainly possible. He's done it before.

I know that we're a team, but a criminal is still a criminal.

And we're cops.

Decide wisely, Captain Oh.

Decide what?

Woong-chul is ready to turn over a new leaf.

It may seem like he only cares about getting his sentence reduced,

but he was never given a chance.

As you know, you and I have given him that chance.

So we should trust him and wait.

What if something happens? Who will take responsibility?

Me, of course.

If I deny responsibility, you will lose your chance.

You want to seize this opportunity

to add

a few stars here. Am I wrong, Senior Inspector Yoo Mi-young?

Jeez, I can't believe I got lost in the woods.

I couldn't find a single trail. All I could see were trees and rocks.

Park Woong-chul, you...

Where have you been? And what happened to your face?

I told you. I got lost in the woods.

And this is...

It was a badger. It scratched my face.

What are you talking about? Your anklet pinged you near Uijeongbu.

Well, I'm back now. Isn't that what's important?

We're all adults here. Let's respect each other's privacy.

You're back and that's what matters.

Let's drop it. Shouldn't you see a doctor?

It's just a little scratch.

Don't worry. I feel great right now.

What the heck are you thinking?

This is Lee Jung-moon and he's a serial killer.

HANGANG HOSPITAL, ROOM 709

PARK SUN-JUNG

Who are you, mister?

That's my mom's room.

Hush. You'll wake her up.

She's not sleeping.

Mom, someone's here. He's sitting out here.

Who's here, Nu-ri?

FROM OH GU-TAK

Captain Oh has told me a lot about you.

I guess he was here. Oh Gu-tak, that...

I mean, Captain Oh.

He visits me often.

He comes and plays with Nu-ri.

I like him.

I didn't know he visited.

I'll visit you often too.

You'll play with me too, right?

Thank you.

Sorry? For what?

I heard you were the one who saved me.

Captain Oh told me what happened.

Eat up.

You'll round up the entire human trafficking syndicate?

Can you pull it off?

Not sure.

Then why try?

Because it needs to be done. That's why I must try.

When I come here, I let go of every fish I catch.

You catch them only to let them go.

Why go to such trouble?

Do you know what's funny?

Then ones that I let go always bite my bait and get caught again

because they forget so quickly.

They only think about the worms in front of them

without realizing that they'll be hooked once they bite.

These fools don't know that they'll be caught again.

We humans aren't that different after all.

We don't look that far ahead.

We only see what's in front of us.

That's why life's a struggle.

That is why I've decided

that I will no longer let go of the fish that I catch.

Good call. It'll save each other the trouble.

Gu-tak.

Will you catch and release them?

Or will you just eat them?

Why would I release them?

I'm starving right now.

The fish you're after are big. Don't bite off more than you can chew.

I assure you that I won't.

I'll make sure to chew every single piece.

Let's get ready to hunt.

You're dead meat.

These bastards are the underbosses of the human trafficking syndicate in Seoul

that also trades human organs and flesh.

The police already know who these pricks are

but have yet to round them up.

Why? Evidence.

They don't have solid evidence.

The organization has them running in subgroups

and it's been impossible to catch them red-handed.

So even though the police know they reek, they can't do anything about it.

So far, at least.

You probably recognize some of the faces here.

Here's one. This guy and this one too.

These three guys are like brokers who supply products to everyone.

From the dealers at the bottom to the big-box stores at the top.

Simply put, they're like wholesalers.

From the bottom-level dealers to the big guys at the top,

I thought of a way to round them up at once.

The Battle of Incheon.

"The Battle of Incheon"?

That's right. The Battle of Incheon.

What did General MacArthur do when the North Korean army

reached the Nakdong River?

He hit Incheon, the city that sits at the center of the peninsula.

That's exactly what we'll do.

First,

we'll hit these three bastards.

Hey, Mr. Rhee.

-Hey, stop right there. -Get him!

I told you I'd come back...

for you.

What do you think will happen after we get the wholesalers?

The dealers can't sell their products,

and the big-box stores can no longer get products.

In other worse, the market will collapse.

Both the customers and the market itself will be gone.

The low-level dealers will begin dealing directly

with the big-box stores which will breed chaos.

Chaos.

Like a chaotic wet market.

The state of disorder they're in will bring things to order for us.

You see, that's the way of the world.

These arrogant bastards.

Show them no mercy. Just bite them and chew them to pieces.

What do you think you're doing?

What does he want?

Damn it.

The tiger's been caught.

We didn't do anything. Why drag us here?

Tell me. What did we do wrong?

We only did what we were told.

What is this? This is ridiculous.

Shut up!

Shut your traps, you twerps.

Do you guys seriously think that you did nothing wrong?

I should just send you morons to... What's that place called?

You should be sent to Chuncheon University of Education.

So they can become teachers? You mean, the concentration camp?

In any case, you morons need to be disciplined.

Keep your head and eyes down!

What are you looking at? I'll gouge your eyes out.

HWANG KYUNG-SOON

Hwang Kyung-soon, age 58.

She controls all of Seoul.

Hwang Kyung-soon?

The name certainly rings a bell.

She was a famous pimp in Cheongnyangni 588.

Yes, that's right. I remember her.

I see that she's aged.

She went to jail following the demolition of 588.

But as soon as she got out, she got into human trafficking.

As they say, a leopard cannot change its spots.

Anyway, she started this business seven years ago.

She aggressively grew her business with a low profit margin.

And now, you can't do business without going through her.

On top of that, she has a number of cops in her pocket.

We have rats?

Do you know who?

Idiots. Do they love money that much?

No one cares when their neighbor's daughter dies,

but they all gather around and have a meeting

when the price of real estate drops.

You know, I don't blame those rats.

Blame this damned world we live in.

In any case,

this means that we need to move fast before the cops on Hwang's payroll

catch a whiff and try to intervene.

Is it game over once you have Hwang Kyung-soon?

Yes.

When will you strike?

As they say, strike while the iron is hot.

We'll strike tonight.

I'll tell you what we know so far.

Mr. Kang, we initially thought

you were the head of the human trafficking ring in Seoul.

However, we learned from the other members we questioned

that we were wrong.

Your boss.

Also known as Madam Hwang.

Who is she and where is she now?

Are you...

really cops?

I don't think you are.

I told you I'm Senior Inspector Yoo Mi-young with the Seoul Police.

There are so many impostors these days. How can I believe you?

If you really are cops, let's talk at the police station.

I don't like this place. It stinks.

Unfortunately, we can't transport you at the moment.

Then I can't talk either.

Okay. Don't talk then.

You'll regret refusing to talk to me though.

I'll be nice and ask you three times.

Who is Madam Hwang?

How would I know?

Strike one.

Who is Madam Hwang?

I don't know.

Strike two.

This is your last chance.

The truth is, I don't care who Madam Hwang is.

Let me ask you a different question this time.

Earlier, you asked if we were real cops.

That woman is. She's a real cop.

Look at me.

Do I look like a cop to you?

No.

I'm not a cop.

Which means I can kill scumbags like you.

Get it?

And that's strike three.

Goodbye.

I'll talk!

I'll talk.

The human body is fascinating and special.

It has tremendous value.

I want to tell you how valuable it is, so listen carefully.

Okay.

We use our eyes to see things.

Here's a question. Do you know how much an eye goes for?

No, I don't.

It goes for 230 million won.

That's how much it's sold for.

That's a lot of money.

It's how much your dad owes me.

Your dad owes me 230 million won which is a hefty sum.

But he's saying he has no money to pay me back.

Is that good or bad?

Answer me.

Is it good or bad if you can't pay back what you owe?

It's bad.

That's right.

It's very bad.

That's why your dad's eyes...

Hwang Kyung-soon owns the building at 543 Yeongdeungpo.

It may look like an ordinary building,

but illegal activities such as human and organ trafficking

are taking place in secret rooms throughout the building.

Over a hundred ring members practically live in the building.

Tonight,

we'll raid that building.

Our top priority is collecting evidence.

Arresting them comes second.

They'll try to destroy evidence if we move in rashly.

If that happens, our hands will be tied,

so we must secure evidence before we strike.

No one else knows about this operation except for us, Commissioner Nam Gu-hyun,

and Commander Cha of the SWAT team.

A few officers have cushy relationships

with Hwang Kyung-soon, so we need to keep this quiet.

How many years for this?

Ten years.

That's big.

You can't put the same shoe on every foot.

This job is a risky one, so you all need to be on high alert.

Dad.

Young-joon!

From now on, you will have to be your dad's eyes.

Okay?

Get started.

No, please...

Dad...

You can't go with him.

You're too young. You shouldn't see stuff like that.

The SWAT team is on standby.

You should wait here.

-Detective Kim, you stay with her. -Yes, sir.

Are you guys ready?

Let's go clean up this mess.

How may I help you?

I'm here to see Kyung-soon.

-For what? -Why would a cop be here?

Leave your phones here.

-Why? -It's our protocol.

I could use a little lift right here.

THEY'RE HERE

Mr. Lee.

Where can I watch the security footage?

You're here to meet Madam Hwang?

Follow me.

Excuse me.

Can my boys take a look around while I'm meeting her?

It'll be easier for us to have your backs if something happens.

Okay, sure.

We have two workshops.

Then I'll go alone.

Detective Park, Detective Lee, meet me here later.

Sure, Detective Jung.

You two can follow us.

Something's off.

They're just being friendly.

By the way, which precinct are you from?

Yongsan.

Where is the workshop?

We're almost there.

Okay, so where is it?

I said, we're almost there.

I need to take a leak.

Go ahead.

OPERATION ROOM

Where are we going?

We've been busted.

What's going on?

Focus.

Hey, what the heck is happening? We're supposed to be cops.

Who swings at cops with a knife?

They know we're lying.

-Our plan was leaked. -But only a few people know.

The people who know are us four,

Commissioner Nam, Senior Inspector Yoo, and Commander Cha.

If none of us leaked the plan...

-Hello? -We've been busted. Call for backup.

What do you mean?

They knew we were coming.

I don't have time to explain. Request backup now.

Okay, got it.

It's done, Madam Hwang.

Detective Kim.

I trust you'll take care of the situation. I have to go.

Do you use this radio to contact Hwang directly?

You won't be able to leave this place in one piece.

Worry about yourself.

Hey, Hwang Kyung-soon.

Can you hear me?

Listen up.

I'll catch you with my own hands.

Oh, no. I gained more wrinkles.

Hey, where are you going?

The SWAT team is waiting outside. We need to call them in.

How? Hwang's boys are guarding the lobby.

The basement. There must be a way out.

What about Oh Gu-tak and Tae-su? Just leave them here?

There's nothing we can do from here. We need to go get help.

What we need now is the SWAT team, not two criminals.

Guns leave traces.

Use knives.

Hello, sir.

Is this all Madam Hwang can do?

We set everything up for her.

What is this mess?

My apologies, sir.

Yes, ma'am.

He just arrived. One moment, please.

Hello.

Please take care of them.

Of course, we'll clean up the mess.

Come up for a cup of tea when you're done.

I have something for you.

I hear people like to invest in gold these days.

All right, Madam Hwang.

I trust you to take care of this.

Kids, I'm going to tell you something.

I want you to tell the uncles exactly what I tell you.

Do you understand, my angels?

Hello. This is Madam Hwang.

Your tasks must be keeping you busy at the moment.

I'm sorry to interrupt, but I have an important announcement to make.

Please listen carefully.

As some of you may already know,

a couple of criminals have sneaked into our building.

These evil criminals ruthlessly beat up your colleagues.

At the moment, they're hiding somewhere,

vying for an opportunity to take all of us down.

Here's what we'll do.

To catch these criminals, we need to take some special measures.

It's 9:08 p.m. right now.

As of this moment...

Block off all exits at once!

Arm up and go!

Seal off all the exits!

All the exits and entrances will be sealed off.

All communication networks

including the Internet, office phones, and your cell phones will be cut off.

There's only one reason I must take such drastic measures.

My dear employees, I ask all of you.

Find and kill these criminals who are hiding in our building.

They're impersonating cops,

but they're wicked criminals who should be put in jail.

So even if you kill them, there will be no problem at all.

For me and for the sake of the company, get these bastards.

Kill them and rip them to pieces.

Bring their corpses to my office on the 15th floor.

Those of you who grant this earnest wish of mine

will be offered a permanent position

as well as a huge raise.

All right. Get started.

-Hit him. -Die!

Let's go.

Where is Madam Hwang?

Please don't do this. I'm just an employee.

Answer my question, you prick. Where is she?

I know nothing. I was just told that I could make lots of money here.

You work at a place like this just because the job pays well?

I'm just a tech guy.

I have nothing to do with the log business.

The mother-in-law who says nothing is just as bad as the abusive husband.

The wife will get beaten to death anyway because of scumbags like you.

I'll give you a chance to make it right.

I need to meet Madam Hwang. Do you know how I can do that?

Damn it.

This way.

Hang in there. After a few stabs, it just feels like a needle poke.

Here, this way.

Hey, be careful.

These bastards.

Come on.

Damn it. Sit down here for a moment.

Are you all right?

It feels like I got a flu shot.

There's something I wanted to ask you.

Do you remember that psycho from the hardware store?

When we were chasing him,

why did you help me?

Instead of catching him to get your sentence reduced,

why did you come to my rescue?

What would you have done in that situation?

Do you know why I'm doing this?

Aren't we both putting up with all this to get our sentences reduced?

No.

I want to know more about myself.

That's why I'm doing this.

Am I really capable of murder?

If I truly have murdered people, can I save lives too?

Would I want...

to save lives?

Those are the questions I want answered.

You're a complicated person.

Just get your sentence reduced and don't ask so many questions.

Anyway, stay put and wait here.

Let me check out the situation.

Wait.

AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ONLY

We were never here.

Madam Hwang said she'd clean up the mess.

Woong-chul, I need you to kill someone.

You know who this man is, right?

This is Lee Jung-moon, the Hwayeon-dong serial killer.

There's this man I know and he has a kid.

That kid was a victim of Lee Jung-moon.

You said you wanted to live a decent life when you got out.

That was what you told me the last time I visited.

This is your chance.

I'll give you two weeks. Get rid of him and give me a call.

Then you'll be free to do whatever you want.

But if it's not done within two weeks,

you'll be the one to die.

Aren't you here to back us up?

Madam Hwang and you guys are all criminals,

but you guys have no money.

You should've saved up a lot of money.

Kill him.

Hey!

Let me ask you something because I really don't get it.

Do you think this is normal?

I get that you love money,

but there are some lines that shouldn't be crossed.

Hey.

I saved your life.

Hey, psycho. Are you all right?

Get up. Are you okay?

Have you seen Captain Oh?

No, I have not.

Do you think they harvested his organs and turned him into a log?

I've already laid everything down so I have nothing to lose.

What a bunch of fools.

Why would they choose this path?

How did you know we were here?

What are the security cameras for?

Jung-moon, are you okay?

They sealed off all the exits and cut off the Internet and phone lines.

How can we get out?

I do have an idea.

If I tell you what it is,

will you do as I say?

There's an emergency elevator around the corner.

Hwang Kyung-soon had it built for her VIP clients,

but it malfunctioned a month ago and hasn't been in use since.

What are you suggesting that we do with a broken elevator?

We can just take that elevator outside and get out.

We'll have to fight them on every floor. Do you want to get beaten to death?

You little...

In any case, we have 30 seconds until the elevator malfunctions.

We won't experience any issues in those 30 seconds.

And it just so happens to be on the third floor where we are.

Do you get what I'm saying?

Take the emergency elevator all the way to the 15th floor,

capture Madam Hwang, and take her hostage to get out.

Bingo.

There's one problem though.

The power has been cut off,

so someone has to go to the fifth floor and put the power back on.

As soon as the power is back on,

we'll make our way up.

But if we can't get the emergency elevator to work...

Or if we don't make it up to the 15th floor in 30 seconds...

Then all we can do is wait to be killed.

We were never that attached to the idea of being alive anyway.

But if we manage to pull this off and all four of us make it out alive...

If there's someone up there that answers our prayers,

then I'd say it's a fight worth having.

Life is short so why not fight for our lives?

ELECTRICAL ROOM MECHANICAL ROOM

ELECTRICAL ROOM

Come on.

One, two, three,

What the heck?

Hwang Kyung-soon, you've aged quite a bit.

Even if you catch me,

you won't make it out alive.

Then let's die together.

We've lived long enough, don't you think?

Commissioner. It's me, Yoo Mi-young.

Hang in there. I'll take you to the hospital soon.

Make way or your boss dies.

I said, make way! You bastards!

I don't care even if I die.

Let me revise my offer.

The one who kills these bastards will get my position.

So go ahead and kill them.

Kill them, you morons!

You bastards. Do you all want to die?

Don't move.

Don't even lift a finger.

If you do, I'll put a bullet straight through your heads. Got it!

Let go.

-Hey! -I said, let go!

Are you all right?

When was the last time you fired your gun?

No idea.

It's been ages.

I have to say, I prefer baseball bats.

It's just like fishing. It's all about the experience.

You'll celebrate your 70th birthday in prison.

That is if you're still alive.

Why wouldn't I be alive?

I've been taking such great care of my health.

Goodness. I wish I could just beat you up.

Get up. Get in the car.

You throw quite the punch.

There's nothing I can't do.

Let's go.

Hello. No, he's still alive.

Let's wait before we make a move.

Scars, but no glory.

Let's go. Let's go get some food.

BAD GUYS

-Have all the druggies been taken care of? -We'll be free of drugs for now.

Who's getting the reduction?

Hey, psycho. You take it this time.

Sure.

Or let me have it. I'll have four years left.

You really are a greedy pig.

Look who's talking.

What happened?

A mass shooting.

You guys will have to stay out a little longer.

Six shots, six dead.

The sixth shot was fired carefully.

How do you plan to catch the perp?

It's been two weeks.

Let's go. To die.

Can you do me a favor?

Tae-su.

Catch that bastard.

It's just us two now.

They're helping us even if it means they won't get their sentence reduced.

Let's catch this one.

Move.
