You're saying...
we have to move the cash from all these vaults?
What do you think?
Can we do this in a week?
That seems difficult.
What did you say?
So,
let's do it while hoping for a miracle.
Jesus Christ performed miracles...
of bringing people back to their feet and back from the dead.
That miracle...
will happen right here.
(Episode 27)
Before we go any further,
I think we need to agree on a few things.
- What do you mean? - I'd like to divide...
our tasks into three different directions.
While Aeguk Newspaper moves the money from his private vaults,
Splash Team will delve into Faith Center.
I want the prosecution to keep eyes on Mr. Cho Young Ki from Noah.
And...
I think it's about time...
to reveal that the prosecution and Daehan Newspaper...
played a part...
in helping Nam Kang Myung's escape.
You know better than that.
We resolve problems of the prosecution within the organization.
Informing the public regarding this matter...
However, we won't be able to scrape out...
the enablers without exposing them, ma'am.
We already paid the price turning a blind eye...
with Nam Kang Myung's scandal.
But then...
exposing the traitors won't solve our problem.
Suk Min, I understand you have it in for Daehan Newspaper.
You know that trust is the backbone of the media.
I don't think we should expose its weaknesses just like this.
I understand you can't go against your organizations...
and that there will be a heavy blow.
However, the prosecution and the biggest news agency contributed...
in helping Nam Kang Myung stay alive,
and in the midst of doing so, a man was murdered.
It's our duty to discover who plotted this disaster.
Whether we are a prosecutor, a journalist,
or a media jackal, it doesn't matter.
This battle...
won't end with just Nam Kang Myung.
We must get rid of the people who caused this fight to begin with...
for us to see the whole picture.
That's how the masterminds of this will come to light.
However, you'd like you to keep this in mind.
The reason why we're willing to sacrifice the prosecution...
is because we must apprehend Nam Kang Myung.
In order for us to do so, emptying his private vaults will be the key.
Are you confident you can do this?
Of course.
Hey, why do you always answer questions without discussing them?
Why?
Aren't you confident?
Did I say that I wasn't confident?
Why are you always answering before I do?
All right.
Let's get this started.
What is the elders' plan? Tell me in detail.
20 years ago,
they didn't get to finish a project at Faith Center.
They're planning to give that another try.
- Faith Center? - Nam Kang Myung...
smuggled something in...
from North Korea.
He said he will hand it over after the surgery.
But considering the quantity,
it won't be a problem throwing Seoul into chaos.
Since we don't have the control over the administration,
if the current system continues for decades,
do you think we'll be able to make the world we want?
It's time for us to make the people shiver in fear.
You're planning to stir up a storm yourself?
Against your own people?
This is what the elders said.
"If the people are stupid,"
"we have to slap them in their face to wake them up."
"Just like Daehan Newspaper has been doing thus far."
Am I wrong, Director?
Everything has been prepared.
But Nam Kang Myung is like a viper. He's not easy to handle.
He plans to tell us...
the location where the last item is on his way back to China.
Betray us?
That's not possible.
We're holding his lifeline.
Did you know...
that artificial hearts can be controlled remotely?
Yes.
Gu Tae Won's wife is going to get the same surgery.
He won't be able to think about going around our backs ever again.
Don't we need a trump card like this to control two vipers?
How is his brain?
The numbers aren't as bad.
He'll gain consciousness soon.
That's...
an external transmitter that controls the artificial heart.
The patient himself can check the battery among other things.
Since you can remotely control it...
Who else knows...
I'm here today?
Only his nurse and I know that.
Let's say that no one has visited him today.
If she doesn't keep her silence,
make sure she understands her family will get hurt.
When he gains his consciousness back,
he'll want to leave Korea.
When that happens, I'd like him to use this phone.
Don't make it look obvious.
You'll be happy once you expose Faith Center?
(In 2001)
(Mirae Daily)
("No Casualties from a Fire at Faith Center")
Mr. Gu Tae Won.
When I was after those commies in Namyeong-dong,
there's a lesson I learned the hard way.
It was that I should decide quickly...
whether or not I can take them down. If not, my life would be miserable.
Your position from Daehan Newspaper won't help you right now.
Unless you want your life to be miserable,
you should just stay out of this.
I'll make sure that whoever...
is responsible gets punished.
You people aren't humans.
There were people in that building, including kids.
Why do you think we're the only ones who commit sins?
There's someone who already witnessed...
what you did in that fire.
What?
If this goes public, we won't be the only ones who'll get ruined.
So you better decide.
Will you walk with us safely...
under the umbrella given to you by our elders?
Or will you...
greet a tragic future all by yourself?
What are you doing?
I'm asking you to choose.
You can either end your life here,
or become a monster...
with us.
What do you say?
Why did you guys do that?
I heard you admitted to your mistakes.
I told you to make a deal, not to admit to anything.
What we did was enough to redirect Nam Kang Myung's focus.
Sacrificing Aeguk Newspaper wasn't enough.
We have to show them that they succeeded in destroying us.
That's the only way they'll take their eyes off us.
Did you put up with everything...
for five years just to end your career like this?
Was it that easy for you to quit your job?
Who said...
it was easy?
If I don't leave,
someone else will have to take the blame.
It wasn't easy.
I...
just did what I could.
Here. Let's console each other...
by having a drink.
We might not be able to smile that much from now on anyway.
If you're so worried about that, why did you admit to everything?
I heard you can't even become a lawyer if you get fired like that.
I simply admitted to what I did.
I even thought about getting on my knees to beg for forgiveness.
This all happened because I was always rebellious.
So I thought I should try becoming obedient like the past.
But you succeeded in bringing out Nam Kang Myung,
even when everyone thought he was dead.
That suddenly gave me the urge to fight.
That's why I admitted to my mistakes.
You said you're going to achieve a miracle.
You're not thinking about giving up already, are you?
Of course not.
Let's get through this no matter what.
We no longer have anywhere to hide anyway.
(Prosecutor's Office, Prosecutor Kwon So Ra)
What are you doing?
Well, the thing is...
We were told to redistribute all the cases you were in charge of.
Okay.
Let's go.
(Prosecutor Kwon So Ra)
I added a few more points to Suk Min's article.
It won't be enough to act as evidence, but I'm sure it'll help.
What is it?
Do you remember Lieutenant Jeon?
- Yes. - He was once...
charged for killing a murder suspect...
who was released by the prosecution.
He killed someone?
And the prosecutor who helped him get released...
was Chief Prosecutor Im Ji Tae.
Then is that when their relationship started?
Yes.
That's probably when it all started.
We weren't able to get any testimonies to prove that.
But I think...
you could find solid evidence to prove their relationship.
(Younggwang Group's Grandson's Hit-And-Run Case)
Inspector Park.
Should we look into an old case...
before they officially kick us out?
I'm going to go to the bathroom.
Why don't you...
just tell Mu Young?
You already know who made Han Chul Ho...
fabricate those articles.
He deserves to know what his brother...
had gone through.
Yes, I know that.
But he still won't be able to do any harm...
to the head of...
Daehan Newspaper.
In order to mention Gu Tae Won's name,
I need evidence,
not suspicion.
And I'm sure we'll find that evidence no matter what.
When I found out that Chief Prosecutor Im...
and Gu Tae Won were somehow involved with each other,
I began my own investigation into Gu Tae Won.
All his records were clean.
But...
even when he had succeeded in keeping himself clean,
he couldn't do the same for the person next to him.
"The person next to him"?
I'm talking about his wife, Ms. Seo Hyun Hee.
She was suffering from a congenital heart disease.
In 2011, the symptoms of the disease had worsened,
so she had signed up for a heart transplant.
But there are no records of her having used any medical insurance.
How can someone with such a serious disease...
stay alive for six years...
without ever having gone to the hospital?
Is this a miracle?
If not...
(Get out of the trap. If you prove your competence,)
(I'll keep the promise Chairman Min failed to keep five years ago.)
You used Chul Ho to block the article about Chairman Min.
That means you were also involved in the dirty scheme.
Was it your wife's illness that made you get involved?
What in the world...
had happened to you?
I'll tell you...
everything.
I should've done so earlier.
I know it's too late,
but I'll...
Please calm down.
(Year 2001)
And listen to me.
Everything that happened in Faith Center...
will be covered up.
You promised that you'll reveal the truth.
You said you'll...
reveal everything about Faith Center.
I can only tell you one thing.
You should run away right now.
You know how easy it is for them to kill someone.
(Seo Hae Young, Nurse in charge: Ko Eun Sook)
You were there,
weren't you?
I saw everything.
You said you'll help us.
But you...
are just like them.
Don't worry.
Your secret will be safe.
He's the best test case we have.
I told him so many times to leave Korea.
He doesn't seem to listen.
This is the sample Nam Kang Myung brought from North Korea.
We haven't received the results on the test subjects.
Why don't we test it out here?
What is this?
Who are you? Come back here.
It's very effective.
Now, we have to do is get the real shipment from him, not the sample.
(A victim of Park Eung Mo case)
I came this far.
Did you see what I'm seeing now, Chul Ho?
If you had seen this, what would you have said?
But he wanted to make things right.
That's why...
he approached something that shouldn't be revealed.
That was the last...
of him.
Chul Ho was murdered while chasing leads about one of these people.
I have to unfold the secret for him.
I need to find out why he had to die like that...
and what it was that he tried to expose.
(Faith Center)
I still believe...
that the world...
will give me an opportunity to right an injustice.
I'm sure I can make things right again.
I'm sure of it.
That's right.
It's not too late.
Tell us what you've got.
All right.
It's been over 10 years...
since the private vaults in the Seoul Metropolitan area ...
were managed by the Dongdaemun Gang and the Jaejung Gang.
The way they operate is very unique.
They keep money less than 10 million dollars in a regular private vault.
But for their VIP clients who have over 10 million dollars,
they provide a separate private vault.
- That's why... - So the conclusion...
is that we have the keys for Nam Kang Myung's vaults.
We can't locate where his vaults are.
I think...
Look at you. Goodness.
Who told you that you could have your own thoughts?
Gosh, who told you that you could glare at me like that?
- Oh, my goodness. - What?
Who told you that you can turn your head like that?
- Then what do you want me to do? - Hey.
Hey, hey. Mu Young.
Sir.
So is there a conclusion that you thought of?
Sure.
Yong Shik.
Yong Shik and Dong Shik.
Does your name rhyme too?
Don't laugh. I wasn't trying to be funny.
You're saying...
you have the keys,
but you don't have the vault.
There's only one way.
You need to go after...
the subordinates.
It doesn't matter which gang they're in.
All of their bosses are in prison now.
Once you scare them,
they'll talk.
That's bound to happen.
Sir,
you have a knack for making me repeat myself.
I know that you have a special vault just for your VIP clients.
I'm telling you. These are all the vaults we have.
But we can still guarantee that your money will be in safe hands.
Goodness.
What a shame.
You just missed your window to solve your problem by cooperating.
You, from Dongdaemun Gang.
My problem?
- What? - What is that?
- Who are you, jerks? - Who are they?
- Back off, you punks. - What?
Hello.
Are you from Youngbum Gang?
Come on. Don't be a stranger.
I'm Yang Chu Sung, also known as the chairman.
By the way, I heard that your boss...
is spending some time in Seoul Central Prosecutor's Office.
But what's making you feel all that confident?
So let's not make this difficult.
Tell me the location of the vault and the passcode for the entrance.
Darn.
Location of the vault.
Passcode for the entrance.
What is this?
- Let me see. - Goodness.
Is this Cheongyang chili pepper?
Don't you know that I can't eat spicy food?
Why did you put this chili pepper on the table?
- I was going to eat it. - This is cooked perfectly.
Sir.
I...
will tell you where the vault is.
Please don't be so angry at us.
No.
When I eat spicy food,
rage fills my stomach.
I need to let go of some of this rage.
- Guys. - Yes, sir.
Hey, get to work.
- Start. - Do it.
No, no, no!
I'll tell you where the vault is.
Hey!
(Pawnshop)
We're getting close to locating Nam Kang Myung's vault.
It's time to really get our plan started.
- Goodness. - What are you doing?
What's your problem?
- We need to take this. - This is our desk.
What are you doing?
Mr. Lee, look at what they're doing.
They're going to take this desk because the fifth floor needs one.
This wasn't my decision. It was an order from...
An order from whom?
I guess you really want this desk.
I'll build one myself for you. So tell me.
- Who gave you this order? - I told them to do it.
It was me.
Chief Editor,
It wasn't Mr. Lee who buried that recording.
It was my doing.
I didn't report it. I just buried it.
Hey,
stop talking.
It doesn't matter whose responsibility it was.
The media relies on the trust of the people.
Because of you, the whole agency is being criticized.
We're the ones who should be angry. How dare you raise your voice?
We'll come back later.
What a jerk.
I know that you're distracted,
but let's focus on our job.
Throughout my life,
do you know what I'm most proud of?
That I put together this team again...
and that we went against the agency.
Hadn't I done that,
I'd still be a corpse in the History Department.
I don't have any regrets.
I don't have a place to return either.
But before I leave this place,
I'd really like to get to the bottom of...
why this had happened.
Let's make sure we find this out. Okay?
You two, you'd better brighten up.
- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.
All right.
There are two leads we must go after.
They are Director Gu Tae Won and Faith Center.
This is only my hunch.
If we can point to when Director Gu Tae Won...
started to work with them,
I believe we'll find clues from it.
I'll look into his wife that you talked about.
Okay. I will look into articles Chul Ho and Director Gu wrote.
Sung Shik and Ji Won, look into Faith Center.
Faith Center...
is the most important link that will unravel the secret...
between Nam Kang Myung and the man with the tattoo.
Also...
see if anyone remembers this woman, Seo Hae Young.
Make sure you collect everyone's testimonies.
So are you saying that...
Chief Prosecutor Im was somehow...
involved with Lieutenant Jeon...
for helping him get exonerated from the charge of murder?
If this goes public, Prosecutor Kwon's case will go quiet.
What you did was nothing compared to this.
- Exactly. - Ji Tae...
is a typical betrayer.
If he finds out that he might end up in prison,
he'll use whatever card he can...
to reduce his time in prison.
Then he'll be very useful to us.
How long do you think it'll take for us to indict everyone...
that's involved with Nam Kang Myung?
I'm sure they all very powerful. Don't you think they'll just...
end up getting released?
But if we get a hold of Chief Prosecutor Im's testimony,
we'll be able to prevent that from happening.
There's a case I need you to investigate.
Okay.
Who's this?
She's Seo Hae Young, the victim of Park Eung Mo's case.
She didn't die...
in August 2008 when the statute of limitations had expired.
She was still alive in 2001.
So who are you trying to attack with this?
The NISI employee who fabricated her time of death,
and the person who pulled the strings from behind.
I'd like the ultimate target of this investigation...
to be Lawyer Cho Young Ki of Noah.
Sir, let me tell you something.
There are too many things overlapping with each other.
So just try to talk it out if it's just a small misunderstanding.
You can give this to me again...
when you really need to attack him no matter what.
Chief Prosecutor Im.
We're already in the eye of the storm.
The people who are involved with Cho Young Ki...
are planning something that's extremely dangerous.
What do you mean?
If you don't want to spend the rest of your life in prison,
you better do as I say.
We need to get rid of...
Cho Young Ki as soon as possible.
(Episode 28 will air shortly.)
