(Outskirts of Shanghai 10 years ago)
I heard you were right-handed.
Right hand?
If I get cramps in my right hand, should I roll over and die?
I heard there was a gunman from Joseon who was famous in Shanghai.
I came to have a go at him.
So you are here.
How about buying drinks for six bullets?
For 100 liters of rice wine.
You can fold if you are scared.
I told you. You can't beat me at shooting.
But you are a strong drinker.
I heard you formed an assassination squad...
with Yoo Ik Joon and Kim Dong Soon.
We were exposed before we could hit at Jongno.
Everyone was arrested.
Comrade Kim Nam Ok.
I am looking for comrades who will take part in our heroic struggle.
Won't you join us?
You have to change the way you speak first.
What is your name?
It's Kim Won Bong.
Not your name.
The name of the organization.
It's the Heroic Corps.
(Heroic Corps: Armed independence fighters led by Kim Won Bong)
Let's do it. Why not?
I like the name.
(Different Dreams, Episode 37: The Pistol)
Move. Get out of my way.
Trust me.
There.
Put pressure on it.
I'm helping Kim Won Bong and Young Jin.
I'll get you out of here.
There are other members.
The rice soup shop owner was brought here.
He is already dead.
I found him a moment ago.
Can you move?
Just leave me here.
I will stay with my comrades.
No.
Leader Kim is outside.
He won't take a step away unless I bring you out.
- Get out of the way! - Move!
Step aside!
Turn to the side!
Get rid of this!
Se Joo!
Did you at least have something to eat?
What about Majar?
And the uncle?
There were both dead.
No.
What about Nam Ok?
The police have been mobilized extensively.
Nam Ok has escaped.
We have to get out of here quickly.
- Let's go. - Let's go.
This way.
You go ahead.
I'll find out more about the situation.
Here.
Jung Im was able to get out.
But I don't know what happened to her.
She is dead.
She was gunned down...
by the detectives.
I'm sorry.
I am sorry.
Are you sure it's the guy you saw in Shanghai?
It's the same face.
The drawing came out as close as possible.
Do you know the identity of the guy?
It's the guy we saw in Shanghai.
We were robbed blind.
This is embarrassing.
I don't care about press control.
Surround all of Gyeongseong if you have to and find him.
Yes, sir.
I found this by comparing it with the composite sketch.
He was arrested once 12 years ago.
(Kim Nam Ok, Born July 8)
(Kim Nam Ok)
Kim Nam Ok.
I will give you all the men you need be it a hundred or a thousand.
Just get him dead or alive, I don't care. Got it?
- Yes, sir! - Yes, sir!
Inspector.
The big one has disappeared.
What?
I think he disappeared during the bombing.
What should we do?
Right now, finding Kim Nam Ok is the priority.
Get rid of all documents related...
to the testimony to prevent any problems later.
- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.
I didn't know how to read and write...
even when I was 14.
I followed my father to hunt pheasants and rabbits.
Then my father was drafted for Japan's tiger expedition.
They claimed they wanted to reduce...
the harm experienced by the Joseon people.
But that was rubbish.
About 20 days later,
the Japanese police came and said my father was killed by a tiger...
and left some money.
I heard this later.
My father and the expedition members...
were called hunting dogs.
Japanese aristocrats...
wanted to get tiger leather to offer to the emperor.
So they pierced the sides of live people...
and left them in the mountains to use them as bait.
How can humans use humans...
as bait to catch tigers?
That's why I started to fight for independence.
I wanted to see a world where humans can live with dignity.
No matter what happens,
I won't die until my country regains independence.
No matter what.
We will see it.
We will see such a world.
Let's you and I...
make that world.
It's probably Nam Ok who bombed the police station.
He implemented the plans for...
Jongno Police Station before it was exposed.
It would be difficult for him to get out alone.
We have to find him first.
The size of the search party seemed large.
The head of Jongno Police is unconscious.
The armory was also half destroyed.
Have they identified who they are searching for?
Among Special Duty Team One, there was someone who saw...
Jung Im and Nam Ok in Shanghai.
A sketch is being drawn up according to his testimony.
Just this afternoon, 200 men have been added to the search party.
They have surrounded Jangchungdan.
More than 400 policemen are...
now on the hunt for just one man.
Jangchungdan.
I have to go to Jangchungdan.
- The outside is full of... - Nam Ok and I...
He and I...
pledged to die on the same day.
I can't leave him out there all alone.
Wait.
Please.
I will go back to the Bureau and join the search team.
I will find out more in detail.
Thank you for helping.
It can't be easy for you.
I was once confused between...
Japan and Joseon.
I was raised by Japanese.
I didn't know if it was right for me to have them as my enemy.
At the time,
even people from Joseon...
refused to trust me.
Then I thought fighting against...
the expansion of colonialism and being oppressed like slaves...
didn't matter whether you were from Japan or Joseon.
I am not...
fighting against Japan simply because I'm from Joseon.
I wanted to...
tell you this at least once.
If I hadn't met you...
I too would have never known.
What Japan did to Joseon.
(I will be back.)
Have you seen someone who looks like this?
If you do, let us know immediately.
You. Wait.
Have you seen him before?
No.
If you see him, let us know immediately.
What do you think?
We have 250 additional men.
This area has been sealed off completely.
Matsuda, you stay here. Daiki, you search the upper region.
Yes, sir.
Hurry up.
It's so noisy.
Hurry up, will you?
- Who is hiding? - They say it's the Heroic Corps.
What's wrong with him?
Who are these Heroic Corps?
They're a nuisance to the world if you ask me.
Get dinner ready.
What a day.
Can I...
Can I ask you for a favor?
(Episode 38 will air shortly.)
(Episode 38)
Hey, you!
Yes?
Go on.
I have to say,
the Jongno Police Station incident helped us big-time.
I was concerned about Hiroshi's death...
stirring things up in the military.
The old sayings are never wrong.
An incident is best buried with another incident, right?
Oh, didn't you say you wanted to get some rest?
I figured I should help out, considering the situation.
Then I assume you'll return to the Secret Police?
If you'll allow me to, sir.
Great!
I'll call Kenta to give him a heads-up,
so join the search operation immediately.
Yes, sir.
Yes, you can put him through.
It's me.
Yes.
The police are closing in on the vicinity of Sampantong.
As soon as the day breaks,
they'll start searching all the houses in the area.
Leader Kim is gone.
I think he went looking for Nam Ok.
I'll arrive at the scene soon.
Don't worry too much.
You, over there.
Get up.
What's that?
My gosh!
Please spare my life...
I'm neither a police officer or a detective.
Please don't worry.
Come with me for a second.
How did you know this was inside the jar?
Where's the friend that asked you to do this?
At home.
If any police officer stops you and asks to see this,
just throw it away and run. Do you understand?
My brother...
was an independence activist.
I was very against it, and I tried so hard to stop him.
Where is he now?
He died.
At Seodaemun Prison.
Don't worry.
I'll make sure he gets this.
Is there...
any message you'd like me to relay to him?
Thank you.
Hey, you.
What's that in your hand?
What is it?
Lads, follow me.
Excuse me.
Gosh.
Thank you.
I met your leader.
What...
What did he say?
He said he'll never forgive you...
if you die first.
Who is that man?
Isn't he the one who the detectives were looking for earlier?
That rat from the Heroic Corps!
- You crazy woman! - That hurt!
Sir.
If they find out that he's here, all of us will die.
- Do you realize that? - Sir!
Sir, I'll leave.
I'm sorry. I'll leave.
You stupid witch!
Everyone, listen!
- Gosh! - You must leave now.
Detectives, where are you?
That rat from the Heroic Corps is here!
Over there! That way!
He's over there!
He went that way! Detectives, hurry!
Hurry!
Over there, that way!
You'd better not come here, Won Bong.
You'll die if you do.
Go that way!
That way!
Go that way!
Matsuda!
Kim Nam Ok!
You're completely surrounded!
Surrender!
If you do, we'll spare your life!
Shut it, you scum!
Nam Ok, don't you die.
You'd better not die.
What's the situation?
I think he's almost out of bullets, sir.
He's like a rat in a trap now.
By the way, what brings you here?
I've returned to work.
I had a meeting with Director Oda.
Sure, that's none of my business.
But I'm in charge here.
Wouldn't it be better to capture him alive?
- Well, that's... - I'll go in and see.
Matsuda!
Mr. Kim.
I'm Prosecutor Fukuda from Judicial Affairs.
I came unarmed!
Let's talk!
First, let's get you out of here alive.
Come with me, please.
Stop spewing such rubbish!
As you're probably aware, you're completely surrounded!
You cannot get out of here on your own.
The detective who killed Jung Im!
Bring that scumbag here first.
We can talk after that.
I'm here, you rat! Come get me!
Drop your gun and get up here, you punk.
Stop!
Go back down if you plan to do something dangerous.
Move!
You must live.
Surrender and come out alive.
- What's going on? - He won't surrender, sir.
Step aside.
Kim Nam Ok!
I'm Chief Inspector Matsuura from the Police Bureau.
Your comrades...
are being interrogated at Jongno Police Station now.
Cooperate with the investigation.
Then you'll be sentenced accordingly,
which will be a few years at the most.
Don't waste your precious life like this.
Surrender already!
I think he's out of bullets now, sir.
I'll count to 10 and go up there.
You'd better drop your gun and surrender!
One.
Two.
Three.
Four!
Come up if you want to die.
I'll put a bullet through your head.
If you surrender,
I'll help you get your sentence reduced!
What are you talking about?
Please live.
Surrender and come out.
I'll save you, you fool!
(Hero)
Hey, Nam Ok.
- You scared me. - What are you doing?
Hang on.
I've been trying to polish this, and it's been taking forever.
What is this?
"Hero"? Is that its name?
Yes, Hero.
It won't fire properly, then. It'll be a dud, you fool.
A dud? Cut it out.
Just you watch.
This guy will save my life one day.
All right.
I hope you'll outlive me.
I will.
Bang.
I told you...
that you'll save my life one day.
Surrendering to the Joseon Governor Office...
means to die forever,
whereas a glorious self-inflicted death...
means to live forever.
But the one thing that makes me sad is...
In the blue waters
Of the Tumen River
- A wherryman is rowing away - A wherryman is rowing away
- The bygone days - The bygone days
No matter what happens,
I won't die until my country regains independence.
No matter what.
We will see it.
We will see such a world.
Let's you and I...
make that world.
I wish I could see all your faces...
just one more time before I take my life.
I'm sorry, Won Bong.
You'll outlive me.
Hurray for the independence of Korea.
- Gosh. - Come visit again!
Hey, let's go for another drink. Okay?
- No, I'm off. - Come on. Just one more drink!
Come on.
I saw you in Shanghai.
You're in the Heroic Corps, right?
Are you the last one standing?
The ones that were captured at the restaurant...
and the punk that came to the station...
are all dead now.
About that woman I encountered in Shanghai,
I killed her.
Kim Nam Ok,
my comrade who died at the church earlier today.
How did he die?
That punk took his own life.
We checked his gun, and it was the last bullet he had.
Was the investigation...
- led by Chief Inspector Matsuura? - Hold on.
If I cooperate,
will you spare my life?
The investigation...
was led by Chief Inspector Matsuura, wasn't it?
Yes.
Then what did you guys do with his body?
We burned it to ashes.
If we buried it,
all you independence activists...
would make pilgrimage to the site.
From what I know, Prosecutor Fukuda was also inside the church.
What did he do?
Oh, you were there?
Did Prosecutor Fukuda...
take part in any way...
for the deaths of my comrades?
Prosecutor Fukuda...
suggested that he surrender.
Until his final moments.
Don't do this, okay? Please...
Our uncle,
Majar,
Cha Jung Im,
and Kim Nam Ok.
I'll engrave these four names...
in your head forever.
No, don't...
You'd better remember them even after you die.
(Different Dreams)
How many people have responded to the invitation so far?
Everyone responded.
You should leave Gyeongseong first.
Two people won't be enough.
The Heroic Corps started this and will see it through.
I bet you have unfinished business with Chief Inspector Matsuura too.
Something will happen, something big.
You mustn't make a move before the ceremony begins.
To 5,000 years of co-prosperity in Greater East Asia!
- To our co-prosperity! - To our co-prosperity!
Kim Won Bong!
Young Jin!

(Said to be the Hungarian who provided the Heroic Corps...)
(with high-quality explosives, but nothing else is known.)
(Kim Sang Ok, 1890-1923)
(An independence activist who bombed Jongno Police Station...)
(and took his own life with his last bullet.)
