(Episode 11)
I'll get going, then.
Promise me...
you won't do anything on your own.
Fine.
What can I even do when you're taking the MP3 player with you?
Go. Don't keep your mom waiting.
Jung.
We have our work cut out for us, so don't be late tomorrow.
Who's calling the kettle black?
I saw that Son Heung Min had a game tonight.
I'll only watch the first half.
Call me if he scores. Bye, then.
Mr. Seo, is that you?
The device you're after is in my possession.
Come and get it.
(365 days, 24 hours, The Civil Affairs Division Office)
So you saw what's on the device.
The one Reporter Jin had.
Too bad, Mr. Seo.
I'm afraid you're done for.
What is it that you want?
My family.
My son Jun Soo and my wife.
Bring them back to me.
If you do, I'll forgive you.
Prosecutor Park.
I'm truly sorry about what happened...
I was just like you.
I apologized...
saying it'd never happen again.
That I wouldn't even look you in the eye.
Just like that,
I begged for mercy on my family.
But...
remember what you did to them?
I'm sorry.
What are you doing?
I know that I don't deserve to ask you this.
But can you let me off the hook?
I'm really sorry.
Write it down.
That you will never bother Prosecutor Jin, his family,
and his friends.
If I write that,
will you give me what I want?
Should I call the reporters?
I'm sorry.
Sorry.
(Civil Affairs Division)
Before I write that down,
can I get some water first?
Don't try to get clever with me.
Mr. Oh.
I know that you're there.
I'm going to be more casual around you from now on.
I'll give you a chance.
A chance...
for you to truly be my person.
(Civil Affairs Division)
Sir...
Why did you put this over him?
Pardon?
Let's take him to the hospital.
He's still alive. I know that.
So take this off him, and let's get him to the hospital.
Mister.
Open your eyes. Please?
Don't be so dramatic! Wake up!
Stop with your prank. Wake up.
Stop joking around and wake up!
Mister! Who said you could die?
Why are you dead?
Mister!
He's still alive!
He's still alive, you jerks!
Mister!
(Bad Prosecutor)
("Condolences")
(Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office)
I got the funeral outfit from a rental agency.
- Thank you. - And this.
Mr. Park's family...
He has no one left.
I'll go and get a photo from Mr. Park's house.
It's been so hectic. We still don't have a photo...
I'll go.
I'll go with you then.
(Law and Criminal Investigation Study)
Slow down, will you?
You'll give me indigestion at that rate.
You must be thrilled to have that bump on your head.
The kimchi is delicious.
- What? - The kimchi's delicious.
- It's good? - Yes.
I see.
Dig in, then.
Prosecutor Jin.
You know,
I'm taking Snowball out for a walk.
But I can't find my back scratcher.
It's Coco, not Snowball.
Why do you always call my dog by a different name?
Look closely. It must be here somewhere.
Wait. There it is.
- Where? - Under the desk.
Stop scratching your back.
Where's the back scratcher? It's not here.
Keep looking.
- It's not here? - No.
But it must be here somewhere.
Should we get going?
Hold on.
I heard you gave me your blood.
It's the same blood.
There's nothing special about sharing.
Next time, I'll save your life.
I also can't stand by and watch you get hurt over this.
So we'll do it together.
Let others carry the weight too from time to time.
Stop trying to do everything on your own.
You have only two choices.
You either do this with me or leave everything with me.
And this time, I won't lose anyone.
I'll catch him before that happens.
Jung.
Last night at the Civil Affairs Division...
of Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office,
Prosecutor Park was found dead...
after being hit with a blunt object.
According to the police,
there are no witnesses or leads in the case.
Since the outside security cameras were not working,
the investigation is expected to face difficulties.
This is Oh Do Hwan.
Yes, Mr. Seo.
Thank you for the drink.
You couldn't sleep?
You don't look well.
No, sir. I'm okay.
Good job.
You must've been flustered since it was your first time.
You've done a good job.
I guess we're now accomplices.
(The Guardian of Justice, Swordsman)
How dare you come here?
Leave right now.
I don't think this is the right way to treat a guest.
I'm here to show my condolences.
Chul Ki.
Let him in.
May the deceased rest in peace.
Thank you for your visit.
You didn't have to come this far.
They say you should greet your enemy at a funeral.
I'm done being polite, so listen to me now.
I know you have the MP3 player.
It somehow got to me.
I will never forgive you.
So never regret what you did...
or ask for forgiveness.
Don't get caught without my permission.
Just stay where you are.
I'll find you and kill you.
I'll be rooting for you.
(May the deceased rest in peace.)
(Notes)
(Do you want to delete this file?)
(Yes)
(CEO Seo Hyun Kyu)
Keep up the good work.
Let's eat ramyeon
Is this gold?
Made in Dongmyo. It was 9.70 dollars.
It was expensive. Put it down.
You'll get to your senses after losing your teeth.
Come here and eat.
Yes, sir.
Let's eat some ramyeon.
- I'll do it. - It's done.
Rice cake would've been perfect to add.
(Use locker)
(Choose the locker number and press confirm.)
(Enter the 4-digit password.)
It seems as though Prosecutor Jin has a lead in the case.
What kind of lead?
This is from the subway security camera.
Someone in the clean-up crew must be aiding him in some way.
Someone that we aren't aware of is helping him?
I have the NFS report.
The fingerprint on the evidence...
turned out to be Seo Hyun Kyu's.
(Report of Fingerprint Identification)
(Item: Lady Justice statue, Comparison sample: Seo Hyun Kyu)
It was Seo Hyun Kyu.
Thanks, A Ra.
Hey, where are you going?
To catch the scumbag.
This isn't appropriate. Please leave.
Where is he?
If this continues, you'll be forcing us to call the police.
Leave while we ask nicely.
Why you...
Where's Seo Hyun Kyu?
Speak.
We aren't aware of his unofficial businesses.
Only Lawyer Seo Ji Han is privy to that information.
Let's drink.
Look who it is.
It's the notorious Prosecutor Jin.
Give us the room.
Leave immediately.
Sit back down.
I'm a prosecutor.
It's all right, so leave.
What do you think you're doing?
Have you lost your mind?
Where is he?
What?
I won't ask you again.
Where's your father?
And here I thought it was important.
Why?
Do you wish to beg for mercy now?
Tell me. Where's Seo Hyun Kyu?
What has you infuriated?
Is it because of that guy?
The managing prosecutor at your division.
I heard he died.
His head...
was bashed in.
You vermin.
You should've known when to fold.
If you had, none of this would've happened.
What's going on in there? Open this door immediately.
Think of it this way.
He went to his wife and son.
How sweet is that?
Get the key.
You at least have my condolences.
Wait...
Stop him.
Get off me!
Make sure your dad gets this message.
Tell him I have proof of his murder.
(Books)
Is that so?
I wonder what got into Jin Jung.
No, of course not.
Who am I to interfere...
with what goes on at the disciplinary committee?
All I ask...
is that something like this doesn't happen again.
Please take that into consideration.
Sure.
(Mt. Pyeonan Books)
(Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office)
(Disciplinary Notice)
(In accordance with the office's HR code)
(Suspension leading to termination)
(Suspended as of October 18)
It's rare for anyone to get terminated in this office.
I'm proud of you, Prosecutor Jin.
You actually did it.
That's you worrying, right?
How can you smile right now?
How can you even joke when you're close...
to being terminated?
Did you have to punch his face in?
At least, it was gratifying.
I'm crying on the inside.
What now?
I'll have to talk to him.
The man who was once Seo Hyun Kyu's closest ally.
Prosecutor Park was murdered.
By Seo Hyun Kyu, I presume.
I have evidence,
but it might not be enough.
I heard you had information on Seo Hyun Kyu.
I'd like to know what that is.
You brazen little brat.
After all that has happened?
Jae Kyung confided in me...
about how you wouldn't listen...
and that he was terrified of you meeting the same fate as his.
He couldn't get through to you no matter what...
which gave him headaches.
If you had listened to him, he wouldn't have gotten murdered.
Do you get what I'm saying?
Doing as you pleased and being stubborn...
got Jae Kyung and Lee Jang Won killed.
This is all on you. Do you get that?
I do.
It was arrogant of me.
But it's also why I won't back down.
If I do,
that fool of a man...
I'd be letting him die as one.
I can't end it this way.
I'll fight till the end just to get even.
No.
Your fight ends here.
That's how we both stay alive.
Why are you afraid of Seo Hyun Kyu?
I don't fear him at all.
I'm a prosecutor.
And prosecutors...
should only fear justice and the people.
It's our duty as prosecutors...
to bring bad people to justice.
Criminals should fear us,
not the other way around.
That isn't written in any law.
How about it, sir?
Are you still a prosecutor?
(Mt. Pyeonan Books)
Do you know why no one was able to bring down Seo Hyun Kyu?
Seo Hyun Kyu has an archive.
He does more than make sure his clients are found innocent.
He makes sure his clients neither stand trial...
nor get interrogated.
That's why many powerful people in this country...
went to Seo Hyun Kyu to cover up their and their family's crimes.
(Former Mayor of Incheon Lee Yong Chul: Insurance Fraud)
After covering up their crimes,
he used the evidence...
(CEO Sim Seung Hee: Embezzlement)
and put a leash on them.
By the time they found out,
it was too late.
That's how Seo Hyun Kyu became the boss of these powerful people.
Prosecutor Jin.
The real power in this country doesn't belong to the people.
It belongs to Seo Hyun Kyu.
The archive is his weapon and the foundation of his power.
Unless you find the records and disclose them to the public,
you won't be able to bring him down.
Do you know where the archive is?
He doesn't trust people easily.
Maybe his son might be an exception.
(Seoul Dongha Detention Center)
[VIU Ver] KBS2 E11 'Bad Prosecutor' "Seo Hyun Kyu’s Archive" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
Hello.
This is Seo Hyun Kyu.
Prosecutor Jin. So you found some evidence for the case?
You must be worried.
You wanted to see me in private just because I found some evidence.
What do you plan to do?
You were suspended, so you can't even arrest me.
I'm not the only prosecutor.
I like everything about you,
except for one thing.
How should I put it?
You're goodhearted to a fault.
Well, that makes you more vulnerable.
Mr. Ko Joong Do.
You're Mr. Ko Joong Do, right?
No.
Hey, Joong Do! Where did he go?
He was here.
You are him.
I'm from the police. We need you to come with us.
Gosh.
Okay. Fine. I was just getting up.
Come on.
Okay. Let go of me. I'll go with you.
Baek Eun Ji.
(Civil Servant ID, Jung Joon Gyu)
(Notice of Department Closure)
(Applicable to everyone in the Civil Affairs Division)
We're from the Inspection Department.
Come with us.
(Civil Affairs Division)
We're from the Inspection Department of the Supreme Prosecutors' Office.
Come with us.
Gosh. This is crazy.
Why don't we bury the hatchet here?
I think that will be a win-win situation.
I will make a promise to you.
If you don't accept my offer now,
your friends will be locked away for over ten years.
Don't tell me I can't do that...
because I'm capable of doing so.
You must know what I'm capable of.
Save your friends.
If you want, I'll get you reinstated in the Criminal Division.
Or you can use this chance...
to become my person.
"Okay."
Did you think I would say that?
You're disappointing me.
If I was going to cave into this stupid threat,
I wouldn't have come this far.
Do whatever you want.
I'm the one holding all the cards.
(Jin Jung)
Hold on.
It's me. Are you all right?
What do you think?
I'm about to get fired.
Sorry. It's my fault.
Right.
I shouldn't have gotten mixed up with you from the get-go.
I'll be honest.
You might even serve time if this goes wrong.
And you might have to give up...
on your dream of becoming the police commissioner.
I'm really sorry,
but I can't let Seo Hyun Kyu go.
I'll do whatever it takes to arrest him and get you guys out.
Jin Jung.
Stop talking nonsense.
Hey, serving time isn't that big of a deal.
Don't worry about me. Make sure you nail this jerk.
Hang in there. It won't take long.
Let's go.
Are you awake now?
Congratulations.
You'll be able to reunite with Mr. Park soon.
I'll live until the 22nd century.
You and your bravado.
The 22nd century?
Make sure to live until the 22nd century.
You jerk.
Prosecutor Shin.
The Inspection Department was no joke.
How was it for you?
They'll finish questioning me tomorrow.
What about Joong Do and Eun Ji?
I heard they were in a holding cell at the police station.
But I do have one concern.
I can't reach Prosecutor Jin.
You can't reach him?
(Seocho Police Station)
I can't believe this is happening again.
Me and my unlucky life.
Prosecutor Jin will be okay. Right?
Is he all you care about?
Do you think you're Sung Chun Hyang?
Good grief.
What do you like so much about Jung that...
you can't stop following him around?
Did he lend you some money?
He saved my life.
I was caught by another gang, and...
Prosecutor Shin!
Prosecutor Shin. Excuse me.
Can I help you?
I'm Shin A Ra of Criminal Division Three...
at Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office.
We'll take these two as of this moment.
I don't think that will be possible.
What gives you the right to take our suspects?
They'll be testifying for a top secret case.
Open the door.
But this is...
"But this is?" What are you saying?
Do you even know what case we'll be testifying in?
This is an obstruction of justice, you know.
Let me out before I sue you.
You might lose your job while trying to take what's yours.
Before it gets serious,
take out the key.
- Prosecutor Jung got kidnapped? - By who?
I'm sure it's one of the two.
It's Seo Hyun Kyu himself, or he made his men do it.
We need to locate Prosecutor Jin as soon as possible.
The problem is that we don't know how to find him...
Here.
Isn't it an app for couples?
Are you guys dating now?
- Not yet. - You have that app...
when you're not even dating?
I guess you installed it in secret.
As far as I know, she installed it on your phone too.
You're a two-timer.
It's nice. Great job.
Let's go right away.
I installed it.
You punk.
Goodness.
Finally, you're looking down.
You've held out for long.
Your face took a beating.
To the charges you already have,
I'll be adding kidnapping and assault.
Are you sure you don't want to change your mind?
I'm asking because I feel bad for you.
Piss off.
I must say that I am now intrigued.
What could have made you this way?
My upbringing.
There's something my father always told me.
I thought it was cringy when I heard it,
but it was so true.
"Immorality can't beat justice."
I know that one.
Prosecutor Jin, do you think you're right?
This is what I've learned, living day to day.
You know what's really dangerous?
It's justice and not evil you need to be scared of.
You feel guilty for doing something evil,
but that's not the case for justice.
People think it's okay...
to do anything to others if it's just.
They corner you until it's done.
They don't care if you get hurt or not.
"I'm right because I'm just."
Do you know when people get the cruelest?
It's when they believe that they are just.
That's right.
Because of your twisted justice,
you think you're the only one who's right.
You shouldn't do that.
I think there's a misunderstanding.
I've never thought I was right.
I just can't forgive people like you,
and I'm convinced that you're wrong.
I'm in a lot of pain right now.
I don't have the energy to talk, so leave.
It was fun.
Wrap things up and call me.
Okay.
I want to play with you,
but I'm busy.
Look carefully.
Okay, stop.
I'm Shin A Ra of Criminal Division Three...
at Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office.
Everyone here, including Seo Ji Han,
is under arrest for kidnapping and assault...
Jung.
As of this moment,
I'll take responsibility for everything that happens here.
Go and kill them all.
What are you staring at?
Stay away!
Jung!
I told you to stay away.
Gosh, let me go.
I told you we should use our words.
- Get him. - Goodness.
- That guy is... - My gosh.
- Goodness. - Hit him harder.
Are you okay?
Hey, wake up.
Where did he go?
- I need to catch him. - Hey.
Jung!
Darn it.
Jung. Will you be all right?
Get out.
- Get out. - I'm sorry.
Gosh. Hold on, Prosecutor Jin.
We work in the same field.
Calm down, and let's talk.
Let's talk it out.
Do you know what the problem is with people who want to talk?
They just can't understand.
They don't know that they came this far.
Do you know what those people need?
You jerk, where am I?
What do you mean? You're at the hospital.
You've been in the bed for a few days.
I guess I hit you pretty hard.
- A few days? - Yes.
It wasn't that long though.
Today is October 26.
So it was about a week.
Also, your father was arrested.
He's at the detention center.
The court issued an arrest warrant for CEO Seo Hyun Kyu.
I'm pleased to see the court's decision.
The prosecution will thoroughly investigate the case...
according to the law and rules.
What a shame.
There's one more.
Your father told me...
that you plotted everything that happened until now.
He's amazing.
He's giving up on his son to live.
Don't be ridiculous.
My father won't do that.
But your face says something different.
These are the text messages between Oh Do Hwan and Seo Hyun Kyu.
Have a look. Those are courtesy of a genius I have on retainer.
(Mr. Seo Hyun Kyu)
(What should I do about the Seocho-dong murder case?)
(What are you talking about? He acted on his own.)
(That's how you'll conclude all the other charges.)
(What are you talking about? He acted on his own.)
(Got it, sir.)
(That's how you'll conclude all the other charges.)
No way.
It can't be.
That's what you think.
We'll go now that you're lucid. You can stand, right?
Wait. Hold on, Prosecutor Jin.
It really wasn't me.
Park Ye Young...
Fine.
I admit to killing her.
But the rest wasn't my doing, and that's the truth.
I'm aware of it, but what can you do?
Any evidence that could back your claim...
has been destroyed by Seo Hyun Kyu.
If we're being honest, I guess you're not one to blame.
You were only following your father's orders, right?
Why don't I give you a way out?
What do you want in return?
The location of your father's archive.
I have no interest in minor threats like yourself.
I'm only after one man.
How can I trust you?
Do you see another way out?
I'm your lifeline, Seo Ji Han.
Write it down.
Forget it, then.
(B1, 8-44, Bowon-dong, Yongsan-gu)
You don't want to miss your flight.
Go on.
Take care.
Take care and watch your health.
You'll pay for this.
What the...
What's wrong?
Today is October 26,
so you've been out for about a week.
Hey, watch this.
How did you not see the con?
That's why you should always pay attention to your surroundings.
Have a good one.
Take him, guys.
This is some fine weather we have.

I see you're flustered.

Prosecutor Jin, you're a lucky one.
You also are a man of luck.
You're lucky to have me chasing after you.
How did you find out about this place?
Here?
(Ji Han)
(Father)
This must've taken a lot of work.
What are your thoughts on it?
Well, I thought it'd be more impressive.
Thank you for coming over here.
You made my job easier.
Mr. Oh?
Seriously?
How amusing.
He's the ace up my sleeve, you piece of trash.
(Bad Prosecutor)
That's a good look on you, boys.
We might not get another chance to bring him down.
We'll strike once and make it count.
This is where it gets real.
It looks like we're one step behind.
I'm sorry about all this.
Prosecutor Jin is here.
Don't think that you have won.
Brace yourself for the surprises to come.
You're no match for me.
I'm requesting to summon a witness, Your Honor.
This is an important witness...
who will reveal the truth in this case.
Didn't I tell you there were still a lot of surprises left?
