Hey.
Yu Jin Cheol!
It's not going to change anything. It's over now.
I'm not joking. I'll really kill her.
I'll kill her! Don't come any closer.
You'll be in trouble if you keep doing this.
Don't come near me.
He's really mad right now.
You don't want to get caught that easily, right?
Let's have one round then.
All right. You're dead.
You punk...
Get over here.
Darn it.
The last four digits of your phone number are 0070,
isn't it?
You have impeccable timing.
I'm afraid you'll have to come with us.
- This way. - What on earth is going on?
Handle him.
No, you have the wrong guy.
What are they doing?
- This is the guy. - Come on.
- Wasn't it him? - No way.
(Repatriation Waiting Room)
What should I play?
Here we go.
Yes! That's what I'm talking about.
I'm stopping the game.
I had a triple and continued the game thrice.
Kangtae, you owe me double for not having gwangs.
And you're lacking junk cards.
Yes?
That's ten per point, right?
Three, four, five, six, seven, eight...
What are you doing?
You two can beat it.
- Thanks. - I love you.
But...
I can't believe you.
What about Yu Jin Cheol?
We have him at the location.
I wasn't in my right mind.
What was I thinking, working with this trouble?
Fine. I'll be super understanding.
I'll gloss over what you did since we got Yu Jin Cheol.
But what about you?
He's getting appointed tomorrow.
I must do everything I can to get out.
So exactly how?
You're about to get sent over to the office in Incheon.
How will you fix this? You got nothing.
Gosh, don't underestimate me.
I have my ways.
Did you do what I asked?
When is the district head prosecutor getting appointed tomorrow?
At 11 a.m.
Why?
What is it?
What?
Nothing.
(Episode 3)
We have the vehicle ready for transport.
Wait.
Let me use the toilet.
You can go later.
It won't take long to get to the office.
Gosh, I tried my best to hold it.
But it's really urgent. I'm serious. I have to go now.
This will be a disaster. It's about to come out. Gosh. Wait.
- Hold on. - Let's go.
It's about to come out.
Gosh. My stomach. It hurts so much.
Wait.
It's the last stall. Number six.
It's about to come out.
Hurry.
The last stall. This is embarrassing.
Hurry. No one is in here.
Oh, my. My stomach hurts so much.
Gosh. Why do I feel so bloated today?
Goodness. My stomach hurts. Why does it hurt...
I can't believe we're doing this now.
We had to follow him to the toilet.
I know, right?
You know what?
He told me about transferring me to the countryside.
Hey, that sounds perfect.
I think I have enteritis.
Was it obvious?
But it's not like I can just ask for it.
This is...
I'm not sure.
Hey, it's been a while. Why don't you come out?
Hey.
Come on. Why aren't you answering me?
What?
- He's gone. - Darn it.
What is this?
What?
Darn it.
(Assault and Murder Case of Park Ye Young in Seocho-dong)
You didn't bring this by mistake, right?
But what if you're not the culprit?
August 12?
That was the day she died.
He was the last one to meet the victim that day.
That makes him the prime suspect in her murder case.
How dare you muddy up our clean waters?
You're off this case.
When is the district head prosecutor getting appointed tomorrow?
At 11 a.m.
(Thursday, September 15, 10:30 a.m.)
(The 63rd District Head Prosecutor Lee Jang Won...)
(of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office)
(Prosecution Service)
(Congratulations on your appointment.)
(Lee Jang Won's Appointment Ceremony Hall)
Forget about the appointment ceremony. Everyone...
What?
Ma'am, the appointment ceremony today...
Gosh.
You must not have heard.
It got postponed for an hour.
What?
(The 63rd District Head Prosecutor Lee Jang Won...)
(of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office)
I came too early.
And this is what I promise you.
We, the prosecution,
will be trusted by the people.
Rather than giving in to power,
we will fight against it if we must.
Our goal is to be honest and incorruptible,
and...
(Inauguration of District Head, Lee Jang Won)
What on earth just happened?
- What was that about? - What's going on?
- What was that? - What?
You...
I got the cramps from being crammed in that space.
Can you stay right there?
Mic check.
Hello, reporters and fellow prosecutors.
I'm Jin Jung.
What is he doing there?
Evidence that'd prove a man's innocence was destroyed,
cases were fabricated,
and then they were closed.
What I stated didn't happen elsewhere.
Right here.
It was done at this office known as...
the nation's top law enforcement agency.
Now, watch what happens next.
(The inauguration of the 63rd District Head, Lee Jang Won)
What do you think you're doing?
Lee Jang Won.
You are under arrest as the prime suspect...
in the Seocho-dong murder case.
Congratulations...
on your life being over.
(The 63rd District Head Prosecutor Lee Jang Won...)
(of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office)
Prosecutor Jin.
Yes?
You just said...
he was the prime suspect in the Seocho-dong murder case.
Do you have evidence to back it up?
Yes. It's coming now.
The key witness of the incident.
How long will it take?
I'm going as fast as I can.
Yu Jin Cheol will be here. Stop him right now.
Yes, sir.
Come with me.
What's this about?
I need to check the backseat of your vehicle.
Hey, you have no right.
Hey, open up.
Open up now.
When will the key witness come?
What? They're probably here. I'm sure they're around the corner.
Come on in.
I told you to come in.
Go down already.
Yu Jin Cheol isn't coming.
Let's continue.
I apologize for the disturbance.
- Yes. - Let me wrap this up.
This isn't Yu Jin Cheol.
Where am I? Why are we here?
- We, the prosecution, - Yes.
will act to earn the trust of the people.
Rather than giving in to power,
we will fight against it if we must.
- What? - What's going on?
You have no manners.
It hasn't even started yet.
What?
Hello?
Hey, Jin Cheol. It's me. Can you hear me?
Yes, I hear you, Prosecutor Jin.
People here won't believe me.
Tell them about it for me.
What Prosecutor Jin...
said to you...
was true.
The victim's name in the Seocho-dong murder case...
is Park Ye Young.
She used to work at my bar as a hostess.
And she was...
being sponsored by...
Prosecutor Lee who is with you right now.
I witnessed that they were together on the night of the murder.
I'll go to the Prosecutor's Office...
and answer questions in detail.
Okay. Cut!
I'm keeping the witness who you see in the video, so...
I'm keeping him safe.
There are many people who wish to see him disappear.
You know what?
I made up my mind after you got me.
I will never pick a fight I will lose.
You and I are just getting started.
Good luck.
(Bad Prosecutor)
(Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office)
A shocking incident happened at the inaugural ceremony...
of the new chief prosecutor.
The soon-to-be district head prosecutor, Lee Jang Won,
became the prime suspect in the Seocho-dong murder case.
Prosecutor Jin Jung disclosed the corruption...
in the case to the public at the inauguration.
This has never happened before.
Because of this incident,
the district head position will remain vacant.
Are you going to be like this, Reporter Choi?
You heard about what he did at the airport, right?
We will make a statement to refute this.
So wait until...
Hello? Report Choi!
What were you doing?
- I'm sorry, sir. - You're sorry?
You caused all this because you couldn't do your job,
and you say you're sorry?
Oh Do Hwan.
Get to your senses.
Do you know what punks like you don't understand?
They think they're set if they're behind the right guy.
But they do nothing to prove their worth!
Remember this, Prosecutor Oh.
You can get kicked out of line too.
They don't take you for standing in line.
It's for you to follow.
Are you really not involved?
What?
What Prosecutor Jin is saying, sir.
He's saying that you're the prime suspect...
in Park Ye Young's murder case that happened in Seocho-dong.
It's not late for you to say everything was a lie.
I'll let you keep your job then.
What if I say no?
You violated the Aviation Act.
It will put you in prison for at least three years.
I hope you know that this is the last chance for you.
Prosecutor Jin.
Just so you know,
I can fix the situation even without you.
But your cooperation is...
the easiest and fastest way to solve the problem.
I've been curious about this.
Aren't you ashamed of yourself?
What do you get for being so loyal to him?
Going up?
What's up there?
Don't do this, Prosecutor Oh.
It will hurt more if you fall from a higher place.
Arrest Prosecutor Jin. I'll be in charge of his case.
Don't worry about it. There's no need for that.
(Summarized Indictment)
Let's go.
Bye.
(365 days, 24 hours, The Civil Affairs Division Office)
I heard Prosecutor Kim pulled strings for me.
He got me the summarized indictment.
Right. It's a mystery for me too.
I wonder why he's defending you.
Mr. Kim from the Rich Fund also dropped the charges.
- Did Prosecutor Kim do that too? - Yes.
Does he have feelings for me?
Stop nonsense. Just work hard for him.
He's the only one who cares for you here.
You care for me too.
What are you talking about all of a sudden?
Anyway.
What are you going to do now?
Mr. Park is here.
Oh, you're here. I'm Shin A Ra, sir.
Hey, Prosecutor Jin.
Yes?
Come here.
(365 days, 24 hours, The Civil Affairs Division Office)
I bet you've heard this a lot of times.
What do you think you're doing?
Right. I've heard that many times.
I knew it.
So what are you doing?
This is the civil affairs division, not the criminal department.
You should be taking care of civil affairs.
Why are you working on an investigation?
Just let it go for today. There was no place to go.
Am I the only one who thinks you're off the topic here?
I'm saying this is an urgent matter.
I'll work 2 to 3 times harder.
Or I won't go home and live here. Are you satisfied now?
No. That would be worse.
I'll be back after lunch. Let her leave and get back to work.
The dog escaped again.
Cut me some slack.
What kind of a prosecutor are you?
Other prosecutors call me a defective one.
But I'm not ashamed of it.
I'm proud of myself.
What about you?
Are you proud of yourself as a prosecutor?
Are you someone who doesn't say what's wrong,
turns away from injustice,
and seeks things only for your benefit?
Are you a corrupt prosecutor...
who has no sense of shame anymore?
I believe in you.
You're working on sports bettings in this ragged place,
but deep down in your heart,
you must have the values like fairness,
truth, justice, human rights, and integrity.
That's what I've been thinking about you.
Prosecutor Jin.
Yes, sir.
Why are you saying cringy things?
That doesn't work these days anymore.
You're so old school.
Get rid of her, okay?
It didn't work at all.
Whatever.
(365 days, 24 hours, The Civil Affairs Division Office)
- Are you really not involved? - What?
What Prosecutor Jin is saying, sir.
He's saying that you're the prime suspect...
in Park Ye Young's murder case that happened in Seocho-dong.
This is a serious case.
Please tell me so that I can help you out.
Prosecutor Jin first.
Sort it out...
and take care of Prosecutor Jin.
The truth comes after that.
This is annoying.
Hey, Kim Tae Ho!
All you did was give him a fine?
Are you out of your mind?
The Incheon office called.
Prosecutor Jin admitted his wrongdoing...
and is remorse.
Also, the public thinks he took necessary measures.
With all things considered,
they called our office to offer a lighter punishment.
Didn't the senior prosecutor from their criminal division...
graduate the same university as you did?
That's right.
So all you did is accept that offer?
I thought I had no reason to decline.
His work may not have been clean,
but ultimately,
it was to get rid of the cancer that poisons our office.
Why you little...
A subordinate was present last time, but not today.
There you go.
You're finally showing your true colors.
I'm the deputy chief prosecutor of this office.
I'm fully aware of those who aim knives at me behind my back.
I also know why you had Prosecutor Jin take the Seocho-dong case.
You think you're pure, but you're a hypocrite.
Just wait and see.
That mask you have on?
I will soon have it shredded to pieces.
(365 days, 24 hours, The Civil Affairs Division Office)
Sir, you're here.
It isn't the same dog!
Whose dog is this?
This is Coco.
Prosecutor Jin's dog.
I didn't expect you to have a puppy.
A puppy, you say?
You and your cruel words.
Coco is family.
It seems like a troublemaker.
Just like his dad.
It only answers to me which isn't ideal.
To Coco, I'm the one and only person who matters.
Yes, we're on our way.
Excuse me.
Who are those people?
- My boys. - Boys?
I see you have a big family.
Eun Ji.
I understand we're at war, but this isn't right.
Us as gatekeepers?
I was just bored.
Boss keeps asking for you and wants to know where you are.
Why did you have to retire out of the blue?
Retire?
You retired?
Hold on a second.
Eun Ji, is the rumor true?
Is it because of that punk Jin Jung?
What the...
Where are you going?
To get some ice cream.
It's hot in here. A popsicle sounds nice.
Is she who I've only heard stories about?
Shut it.
She is not to be easily talked about.
Why do you want a popsicle when the weather's getting chillier?
I have it even when it freezes over. Take your pick.
I only eat soft-serve ice cream.
How about I smack you on the head with this?
- Yes? - I have Yu Jin Cheol's location.
- Could you? - I'll take a look later.
Stop what you're doing.
- What the... - Enough chit-chatting.
Get them.
- Get over here! - Darn it!
Don't move.
- Hey. - Gosh.
- Guns sure are scary. - Don't move!
Don't come any closer.
Freeze!
Shoot.
You!
Shoot.
- Go ahead and shoot. - Stop right there.
Stop where you are!
Prosecutor Oh.
Drop your weapons.
- What? - Well...
Things have taken a weird turn.
You see,
Yu Jin Cheol is gone. He disappeared.
Jung, what on earth?
It's Yu Jin Cheol.
Can you address the accusations against Lee Jang Won?
How long have you known Deputy Chief Lee?
What is your relationship with the victim?
Were you telling the truth?
Please say something.
What I said...
while on the phone with Prosecutor Jin...
Due to the threats and violence he inflicted,
I was coerced...
into saying that.
I deeply apologize...
for confusing the public.
Also, I apologize to Deputy Chief Lee...
for all the trouble...
I have caused him.
Are you saying Deputy Chief Lee did nothing wrong?
- Why the change of heart? - Mr. Yu!
- Please say a few more words. - Please tell us more.
The material witness in Lee Jang Won's case stated...
that he was coerced into lying about Mr. Lee's involvement...
which shocked the public.
Following this revelation,
Deputy Chief Lee Jang Won...
will press charges against Prosecutor Jin...
for slander and defamation.
(Witness in Seocho-dong Case Speaks Up)
(Will Lee Jang Won Have His Name Cleared...)
(and Be Promoted as District Head Prosecutor?)
These were just delivered.
(Deputy Chief Prosecutor Lee Jang Won)
(Congratulations on your promotion, District Head Lee Jang Won.)
Gosh.
It's only a formality,
but you'll be summoned for routine questioning.
I'm sorry about all this.
I tried not to get caught,
but he packs a mean punch.
I fully understand.
Humans are wired to side...
with those who provide advantages.
From now on, it's you who I'll be loyal to.
Okay?
Tell me anything you want.
Money? Drinks?
I see. Girls.
I'll take care of you.
I only want one thing from you.
To tell me what Deputy Chief Lee was doing...
on the night Park Ye Young was murdered.
Anything you know about that night will be appreciated.
Can you tell me what you know?
Why are you suddenly asking me that?
Because there might be witnesses or evidence...
that might put him in a pickle later.
I work for Deputy Chief Lee.
(Computer Doctor)
Everyone is here.
Come on in.
Does she have a problem with me?
I can tell she does.
Sit down.
We don't have much time. Let's get to the point.
We're going to steal Lee Jang Won's USB flash drive.
We lost our witness and evidence.
This is going really badly.
To turn the table around, we need the evidence he has.
We only need the USB flash drive.
Wait.
You said you checked what was on it before Oh Do Hwan took it.
You didn't make a backup?
The data backup?
I didn't have enough storage to save the files.
I couldn't save them.
You have this much storage. You couldn't copy the files?
Well, everyone has...
about 4 to 5 erotic videos on their hard drive.
I could hear the girls whisper. They didn't want me to delete them.
Gosh. You're trash.
Trash.
Can you just say I'm a very loving person?
So where's the USB flash drive?
On the 13th floor of the Central District Prosecutors' Office.
It's in Lee Jang Won's office.
In his office?
- In his office? - Yes.
According to the intel, the flash drive is in his office.
But I wonder how solid the intel is.
(Congratulations on your promotion, District Head Lee Jang Won.)
Let me use the toilet.
How are we going to get in?
Wait. Let me say this just in case.
Don't even think about sneaking into his office.
That won't be possible, anyway.
The female secretary is guarding the door.
Deputy Chief Lee is the only one who has the key card.
Bye.
And here's the biggest problem.
The security cameras in the hallway.
Don't you get why I'm telling you this?
We can never pull off what you're saying.
What kind of lunatic would try to raid the deputy chief's office?
Right.
This is really wrong, Jin Jung.
Let's think of another way.
There's no other way.
If we follow the law, we would never be able to put him away.
Not getting caught on the cameras will be key.
Do you have a plan in mind?
Was it seven years ago?
The residents had to evacuate from their houses.
Back then, the police arrested an individual.
He handled confiscated items at the prosecutors' office.
He violated the Enforcement Decree...
of the Control of Firearms, Swords, and Explosives.
And he dropped a crazy item in the middle of the night.
Tear gas grenade?
Goodness. I didn't know rock bottom could get worse.
I know that I'm handsome. But don't stare at me like that.
Even I don't feel comfortable with those stares.
This is much more serious than stopping a plane.
If this goes south,
you'll be in prison for five years.
What's life without risks?
Let's go...
and catch this criminal.
(Computer Doctor)
(Compose)
(The email has been sent.)
(A new notification)
Gosh.
(Actor Kim will meet with a prosecutor for a drug charge.)
Hello.
By any chance, did you open...
an email?
The one about Actor Kim's drug charge?
Why do you ask?
That has a malicious computer virus.
The whole building has been in an uproar because of that email.
Security, I'm on the 13th floor.
The computer in front of the deputy chief's office is infected.
Okay. Go in already. They're waiting.
(Computer Doctor)
Is someone in the office now?
Yes. Why are you asking me about the deputy chief's office?
You still don't get it?
This virus is a really malicious one.
- You should call him now. - Okay.
How do you call him? This one?
Sir, we'll enter the office for a moment.
- Can I go in now? - Yes, you can go in.
I'm going in.
(Scanning in progress)
(Deputy Chief Prosecutor Lee Jang Won)
How can I help you?
An iced coffee, please.
What? Okay.
Make that two, please.
Sure.
I'm good.
Make that one.
How much longer?
Gosh. Okay. It's almost over now.
By the way, this office is pretty hot.
You know,
I have a lot of body heat.
Can I open the window?
Thank you.
(Deputy Chief Prosecutor Lee Jang Won)
Nice. The office feels bearable now.
(Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office)
Goodness. Are these real flowers?
Gosh. They smell great too.
Gosh.
Chul Ki, it's showtime.
Everything is set.
Now, it's the last part, Joong Do.
Sir. Everything is done now.
I fixed all the serious problems.
If there's a problem again,
please call me. Then I will...
- Gosh. I'm sorry. - My goodness.
- Gosh. - I'm so sorry.
- I'll pay for it. - Leave it!
- Darn it. - I'm sorry.
- I'm really sorry, sir. - Gosh.
I'm sorry, sir!
I'm sorry.
Sorry.
Gosh, I think I'm good enough to be an actor.
Hey. Put it there and leave.
It's so windy outside.
I can't hold it much longer.
Can't we just throw it?
Gosh. All right.
I'm on it now.
Goodness.
Can't we just throw it?
I'm nervous.
It's all set. I'm leaving now.
He knows my face, so take care of...
What should I do with her?
Goodness.
(Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office)
Attention, please.
There's been an unidentified gas terror...
in the building.
All personnel should evacuate the building immediately.
Attention, please.
There's been an unidentified gas terror...
in the building.
What's going on? Let's go, hurry.
There are so many people here.
Go past me.
Go past me. It's this way.
This way.
Right. I think there's a fire.
Hey, Joong Do.
- Here. - Thank you. Take care.
Go past me. It's this way.
Your eyes must be burning.
Don't rub your eyes with your bare hands.
How could someone attack this building?
It's me. Come to the 13th floor.
Hurry and open this door.
(Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office)
The CCTV footage won't be enough to find the suspect.
Among the people who work for the prosecution,
there's only one who would do this.
Bring in Prosecutor Jin, right now.
Yes, sir.
Goodness.
I deleted the entry log of the evidence locker.
That tear gas you used...
I took care of the evidence list.
You're amazing, A Ra.
This is why I like you.
You're talking too casually to me.
Anyway,
I won't overlook you anymore.
This won't happen again, okay?
Okay.
Gosh, why did I have to become...
your direct senior?
Hey. Tell me honestly.
People don't think of you as a prosecutor, right?
The world's dirty enough,
and it needs at least one person like me.
Deputy Chief Lee is going crazy.
Oh Do Hwan is looking for you desperately.
What are you going to do with that?
I'm not sure.
(Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office)
Mr. Lee. Prosecutor Jin Jung is here.
Gosh, what's that smell?
I heard, sir.
About yesterday's horrific incident.
Who could've done such a terrible thing at our sacred building?
Did you catch who did it?
(Deputy Chief Prosecutor Lee Jang Won)
- Gosh. - You punk.
Sir, this isn't gentlemanly.
Let's not get physical.
This is quality leather, sir.
Have you no manners? How barbaric.
Did you actually think you could get away with this?
Me? I don't follow.
Don't pull that with me.
Who else could've done something so crazy?
I know you dislike me,
but I don't appreciate the accusations.
Do you have proof that I did it?
Nothing you do will bring me down.
You won't be able to.
Nothing you do will change...
Please don't say lame things...
about me not being able to change things...
and watch this first.
Breaking news.
Deputy Chief Prosecutor Lee Jang Won...
and his sponsorship of a woman in her 20s...
proved to be true.
We, at TCNS, bring you exclusive photos...
of Deputy Chief Lee and Ms. Park meeting in secret.
What's more shocking...
is that the young lady in the photo...
is the victim of the murder that took place on the 12th.
The date stamped on the photo suggests...
that the two met on the day of her murder.
Deputy Chief Lee lied...
about not personally knowing the victim.
Meanwhile, Prosecutor Jin Jung claims that he is the true offender.
I heard this from a drama series once.
"Evil works hard."
It's a phrase I like.
Pithy, right? So cool.
What are you getting at?
It's true that those evil are zealous and dedicated.
But there's something they're not aware of.
That I work way harder than any one of them.
I'll give you time to wrap things up.
I didn't kill her.
You're right.
It's true that I was with her the day she died.
But I didn't kill her.
Gosh, I feel bad for you.
You're headed in the wrong direction.
Deputy Chief Lee isn't good for the murder.
Someone else killed her.
There's something only I saw...
while taking photos of them.
I didn't kill her.
It's true that I was with her the day she died.
But I didn't kill her.
Can you back up your claim?
August 12, 9 p.m.
That's around the time Park Ye Young died.
Check the cameras at the hotel restaurant.
August 12?
- Here you go. - Thank you.
It's from my dash cam. Check what's on it.
Of course.
We should get together for a meal.
While we're at it, how does tomorrow sound?
That's too bad.
We'll grab drinks some other time.
Sure.
(Kim Yong We, Head of the Institute of Justice)
Gosh.
(Prosecutor Jin Jung)
Yes?
It's Jin Jung.
I just confirmed your alibi.
I'm glad.
Tell me, then.
What on earth happened that night?
- What are you doing? - It's nothing.
What are you looking for?
Did you perhaps see...
something small I could've dropped?
As in what?
- It's nothing. - What are you looking for?
Where could it be?
(Family dinner at 8 p.m.)
I have somewhere important to be and will leave early.
- Already? - Don't see me out.
Mr. Lee,
do you know who the real culprit is?
There's something only I saw...
while taking photos of them.
Darn it.
Can we meet up?
I have something to tell you.
It's something you must hear.
Right now?
There's a newly constructed building for law firms in Banpo-dong.
It hasn't opened its doors yet.
I'll meet you there.
I'm on my way.
(Parking Rates)
(Prosecutor Jin Jung)
The receiver cannot be reached.
Ripped and resynced by YoungJedi
(Bad Prosecutor)
