Geez...
Min Ho?
Envelope?
The envelope that Chairman Do told you to give to me.
Have you ever heard the name Yang Hwa?
Chairman Yang Joon's older brother.
He succeeded in conquering the Gangnam area with his younger brother.
The true leader of Bukyeongpa gang.
Yo Han, get in the car!
Prosecutor Hong is here also. Hurry!
Soo Yeon.
Hang on!
What! Stop!
Stop!
Get them!
Stop!
Bingo.
Turn on the siren.
We lost her.
Who are you?
[Park Ro Sa - National Police Agency]
Will you be okay to get caught with me like this?
I doubt it.
Even if you lose a tooth, you have to hang on at times.
[Temporary Leave Permit]
Get out, or else you'll get caught by the Prosecutor Hong Jae Sun.
What is it?
Stand here.
I told you not to do anything stupid when you go out!
Why didn't you say I had to bring a person out?
You just need to know what I tell you
and do what you're told!
His injury was too severe and...
I couldn't have escaped without getting help.
If something terrible happens to Oh Soo Yeon,
it's all your fault.
The envelope you asked me to deliver.
Didn't you hear that I kept it secure from others' hands?
A child was killed.
Do you even know that Prosecutor Hong Jae Sun was tailing you?
He must be so pissed off. I'm sure he'll barge in here soon.
If you want to live a full life,
forget you ever met me.
Koo Bon Chul...
The 24th entering class of Judicial Research and Training Institute.
Naval Logistics Command, First Fleet.
It says he worked as a military prosecutor at the Incheon Defense Command.
There's no other record on him beyond 2000.
From 2000 until now?
Yes, there's no record at all.
Not even a court record of who he was defending.
He's a typical Chairman Do's guy.
You know...
that child...
He was taken to a nearby hospital after the parking lot security guard called in.
I told the police
that the child's name
is Woo Min Ho. I reported anonymously.
I'll help you...
I'll help you, so...
you have to save my dad, Hyung.
The police started...
searching for his dad, Woo Sang Ki.
Do you want me to keep you
posted on the progress of things?
How about that bastard from the parking lot?
I mean...
The Skin-nation...
It's a pretty well-known company.
The company's owner...
and his older brother are doing all this?
Yes.
The two brothers...
That's how the two came out of the gutters.
Hey! Come on now!
[24 Years ago]
They started out as thugs selling fake cosmetics in Namdaemun Market.
Here comes another customer!
Come now!
Hey! Don't do this!
What are you doing?
At the time, Namdaemun was controlled by Bukyeongpa gang from Busan.
Get out, you bastards!
Hyung...
That bastard from the parking lot...
In a short time, Yang Hwa took over the Bukyeongpa gang.
[The Skin Nation Opening] It's going to be successful.
[14 Years ago]
However, living life as thugs was too much.
They tried to grow a company to lead a legitimate life.
But there's someone scarier than a gangster, and that's a loan shark.
The Goldman Casino's manager.
They clashed into a huge wall called Do Won Bong.
Chairman Do's power comes from the casino.
No...
Through that casino,
they realized that the money was being laundered for the slush funds
of the country's powerful people called the "Deep Pockets."
They took over Chairman Do through sheer force.
Those guys...
Gosh, it's hot.
The casino manager position belongs to the one who wins the fight.
It's a position that manages funds for very important people.
If you simply show that you have the skill to maintain the position,
whether it's a thug or a loan shark, they didn't care.
Once the two brothers became the casino's new managers,
the Deep Pockets threw Chairman Do into prison.
And to protect the two brothers,
they bought the Seocho-dong prosecutors.
I sent Kim Yo Han to Do Won Bong so he'd kill him.
But instead, he adopted him.
Why would he have done that?
Jae Sun?
Give me your pictures.
You know Oh Soo Yeon, right?
Why would Soo Yeon...
I didn't hear Kim Yo Han's obituary from the Seongju prison.
So Prosecutor Hong Jae Sun here put a tail on her.
It turns out she had already partnered up with Kim Yo Han.
By then, Do Won Bong had begun to plan out his revenge.
He was only pretending to go along with us all along.
We weren't trying to avoid getting rid of Chairman Do in the Seongju Prison.
But right now, Chairman Do is staying too close to the
elders of Shinseon-dong, just like a cicada attached to a tree.
What's Shinseon-dong?
There is an annex in Seongju Prison where former higher-ups are gathered.
Out of the Deep Pockets who have Goldman slush funds,
a third belongs to the elders in Sinseon-dong.
You mean...
money laundering is halted because of Do Won Bong.
You guys aren't doing anything about it?
So, the way the Deep Pockets see it,
it's all our fault...
and it's our responsibility.
Then...
are we getting in trouble with Annie?
Including me?
Annie?
Yeah, the proxy for the Deep Pockets.
Kim Yo Han's release is not too far off, right?
Yes.
- So, until then... - Shut up!
All your foul-ups from the other day are on the news. It's a mess.
I heard you killed a kid, too.
You shouldn't make such a huge commotion trying to get a guy.
Stop acting recklessly.
Jae Sun...
finish everything up at Seongju Prison.
When things get shaken up on the outside,
they'll get squished to death naturally on the inside.
What are you going to do about the kid who got killed?
Well, as for that...
if we scorch one of our guys...
Yes, hyungnim.
Yes, sir.
Yes...
I understand.
I'll turn myself in tomorrow.
Thank you.
Goodbye, hyungnim.
[75 Yi 8205]
Geez, bastards...
Do they think I'm a pushover?
Sir! Sir!
[99-11 Yeongpo-dong 5-ga]
[Closed]
Woo Sang Ki.
It's Woo Min Ho's father.
He went to the US on a state scholarship and worked as an investment banker.
He met a Korean-American there, got married, and had a child.
Then he got assigned to a Hong Kong branch.
Then he lost his wife.
After retirement, he worked as a coin exchange trader
and lived alone with his child.
Last year, he returned to Korea after 15 years.

I wasn't going to say this, but...
Here's the big news.
Me&C Group plans to acquire Gwangil Pharmaceutical
and invest 30 billion won in new drug development.
[Kim Yo Han]
Excuse me.
Yes, Yo Han.
What?
Justice Department Inspector General has arrived.
What about the interview with the Jo Hae Do's people?
Eight of their gang members,
"Washer" Kim Woo Sang, "Monk" Eum Ik Soo.
A total of 10 people, including two cadres.
I scheduled it under my name.
No.
Put it under my name.
Then you'll be exposed.
That's right.
If the word that a current prosecutor wants Kim Yo Han
spreads in prison, who knows?
We might get something on top of it.
[Prosecutor Hong Jae Sun]
Who reported me to the Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission?
I can't disclose the identity of the informant.
I suppose.
But Prosecutor,
the thing about correctional administration is that
it's an endless fight with complainants.
It's bad enough that they got caught, how could they
accept things positively in there?
By filing reports like this,
tons of guys want to get out for some fresh air
under the pretext of being investigated as a reference witness.
Oh, is that so?
So, this report...
If you tell me who filed it...
I still can't do that.
What?
If I tell you, you're going to bury that informant.
Like that time!
"Informant OOO said
the current warden together with inmate Jang OO
set up an illegal private gambling room in prison by taking illicit gains.
Some guards, including the security manager, are also involved.
However, the inspection result shows that
a card game that was conducted as part of psychotherapy..."
Whoa...
They called it psychotherapy.
Anyway...
"The card game that was conducted as part of psychotherapy was exaggerated.
- The gambling site could not be confirmed." - Hold on a minute.
Exactly one week after the filing of this report,
the your daughter received one million won in her account.
And for 10 straight weeks, one million won is electronically deposited regularly
every week into the account of Son Noo Ri of Seollim elementary school,
second grade, class 3.
I know this isn't just her allowance money.
Because we checked your wife's account history and
your father, mother,
even the account history of your father- and mother-in-law.
But there weren't any withdrawals that matched this.
Your older brother and his wife,
and your younger sister and her husband...
That brother-in-law. I heard he passed the police examination after eight attempts.
What is it that you want?
Tell me whatever it is.
I will do whatever you ask.
There's not much to this.
It's all true.
So we brought Jang Sun Oh in and investigated him.
Of all things, I found out that the head of our correctional department
was also a regular there.
Jang Sun Oh?
Since Jang Sun Oh has been released,
who's the boss there now?
1648.
Today at 2 p.m.,
you have visitation with the Prosecutor Hong Jae Sun of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office.
I refuse.
Visitation from Prosecutor Hong Jae Sun.
I refuse.
1670, visitation from Prosecutor Hong Jae Sun.
I refuse.
Visitation from Prosecutor Hong Jae Sun.
I refuse.
1673.
Today at 4 p.m.,
you have visitation from Prosecutor Hong Jae Sun of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office.
Okay.
Today at 4 p.m.
Yes.
Get back to work.
1673.
What is this?
What the hell.
1673. For possession of a dangerous object,
you'll be taken to the investigation room.
Take him out.
Let me go. Let go! That's not mine!
This is entrapment. It's a trap!
Let go of me!
Is this Kim Yo Han's doing?
I need to meet with Prosecutor Hong Jae Sun!
Let go of me!
Oh, man...
Prosecutor.
They've all refused your request to meet them.
All ten of them?
Yes.
All right.
Kim Yo Han...
Bastard...
Let's hurry up!
What's all this...
- Geez... - We don't have all day here!
- Let's see. - All the sorting is done.
Almost done.
- You didn't do it? - No.
Geez...
Hey, sort these out.
Are you sure they all refused of their own will?
Yes, that's correct.
What's the reason?
For personal reasons.
[4726 Seodo-daero, Daedo-myeon, Anmun-si, Gyeonggi-do / Prosecutor Hong Jae Sun]
I understand.
[Prosecutor Hong Jae Sun]
[4726 Seodo-daero, Daedo-myeon, Anmun-si, Gyeonggi-do]
Seongju Prison?
[Geonguk Daily News, 08-27-2017]
Did you send this to me?
[Geonguk Daily News, 08-27-2017]
[Geonguk Daily News]
[Geonguk Daily News, 08-27-2017]
[Professor Ryu Tae Hoon, Corrupt Admission Practices, Sentenced to 2 Years]
Your price?
Nothing much.
Kim Yo Han, that bastard...
messing up his life.
Gosh, so annoying!
Gosh, that's crazy.
Take a glass.
What the hell?
Are you okay?
Hey, go outside and find out.
Geez, who could it be at this hour?
What's the reason for your visit?
This is Prosecutor Hong Jae Sun of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office.
This is a search and seizure warrant.
Wait! Hold on!
Let go of me!
Please let go! There are iron bars here!
Please help! Wait a minute!
Yes, this is the Warden's office.
Warden, they breached the checkpoint!
What the hell!
Hey, hey, hey! Get that!
Move it! S***!
Listen!
Quiet!
If you panic, you'll go to jail
but you'll go home if you stay calm.
You'll be escorted out through the emergency evacuation route.
You are on the third floor right now,
the Warden's office.
Hey, what's up?
Gather all the men.
- Warden! - What are you doing? Go!
Hurry! Go!
- Hurry! - Hey, hey, hey!
Hey! The record!
Security manager! Manager!
Hey, hey, hey!
What are these guys doing here?
Get rid of them!
Move it.
Move it!
I'll just go to jail!
Geez, come on!
Seongju Prison cares about customers' safety.
Seoungju Prison will be with you to the end.
For the safe evacuation,
please follow the instructions of our staff.
Yeah.
What?
What are you talking about?
S***! Now you are telling me?
What are they doing?
Chief, go in, please.
- Break it down! - Yes, sir!
Hey! Open up!
Hey! Open!
Out! Out! Hurry!
Hey! Burn everything!
What are you doing? That's my lifeline!
I have that lifeline, too.
Hey! You bastard!
Warden!
You have to escape first.
That way, you'll survive
and the house survives, too.
S***!
Hey, hey, hey! This way, this way!
Direct the light!
- Cut it! - Okay!
Hurry up!
Hurry!
Okay, okay. Open it up!
- Hurry, hurry! - What the hell is this?
Geez, what the hell are we doing...
Gosh, it's too low!
Hurry!
Hurry! Lower your head!
Chief, bring me the key from that guard at the gate.
Bring the key!
Hurry!
- Here's more! - Hurry!
Over here!
Don't use your own cars.
Please use the vehicles we've prepared in advance.
Which one?
- Which one? - That one!
Come on! Get out!
Hey, break it down!
Are you going to be at it all night?
Watch out!
There.
Look around!
Where is everyone?
S***!
Hey! Where?
Move!
There's no one here.
Nothing here.
S***...
What is it?
Hello, how do you do?
I am Prosecutor Hong Jae Sun of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office.
Yes.
You have an envelope for me?
The envelope you asked me to deliver.
Didn't you hear that I kept it secure from others' hands?
Even though times may have changed,
prosecutors are the same as ever.
What's your dream?
Good health?
Good health. Nice.
Do you know what's most important for healthy living?
What you eat.
Before you put the food in your mouth, you have to know by a glance what it is,
so you can enjoy the natural span of life.
Your father was able to do that well.
That's why he's at where he is now.
Will you go and
send my regards to your father?
Now.
Let him in.
Boy, here's the Dean.
Like old times, it was a good getaway.
Not too bad, right?
The real top of the class is different.
On the tenth,
did you go outside the prison to receive job training?
I'm getting a certificate in interior architecture.
You didn't ditch your class that day and hang out in Seongjeo-gu?
Me?
Do you have proof?
The envelope this man gave you to deliver that day.
If you give it to me,
your grandmother's killer...
I'll tell you who it is.
Even if you get out of here, do you think you can find the killer?
You'll have a tough time finding a job.
Even if you obtained an interior architecture certificate.
Oh, you know you are alone now, right?
Even Chief Prosecutor Mok wrote an apology letter and defected.
Love your colleague, love your country.
I'll help you.
Even your gambling in here, I can tack it onto another inmate.
You talk as if you're not guilty.
What are you talking about?
As for my grandmother's case,
I'll take care of it.
And an envelope?
I have no idea what you are talking about.
If I just change the door...
you said you'll make a way?
Then I'm counting on you.
[Installation of 15th Warden for Seongju Prison, Shim Jae Chul] To all the correctional officers dedicated to the Seongju Prison,
it's my pleasure.
From now on, this prison will rise up through the current stigma
and become a completely new prison.
I, Shim Jae Chul, am committed to strict law enforcement and
establishment of service discipline for correctional officials and
creation of an honest public office culture.
To be trusted by the people
and be reborn as a correctional facility of hope,
I promise to do my best in my calling.
Aigoo, aigoo! Welcome!
Welcome! Good to see you.
Please take a seat here comfortably.
Okay. Let's get along.
A person...
should read books.
Help!
[Laundry Room] Laundry?
Is it proper for lowly me to come here?
The new warden...
drew lots to be fair for everyone.
So, go inside.
Thank you.
Oh, no!
No!
Hold still!
No! No!
How dare you betray me, f***er...
No! No! No!
No! No!
Did you see it?
What are you doing? Pick it up!
Pick it up!
Bastard...
Get him!
A gambling house in prison...
So that such nonsense will never happen again,
I will make sure all the violations that have transpired
in these correctional facilities
are cleaned up.
I plan to clean them up according to the fundamental principles.
However...
the investigation is over.
So what brings you here,
Prosecutor Hong Jae Sun?
This Seongju Prison case was my first case, so I feel very attached to it.
So I wanted to ask that this place will be well-taken care of.
I came to greet you properly, however...
Hello.
Aigoo. How nice to see you.
You've changed a lot.
Is that so?
I blocked them all.
But how can I avoid exposing my back?
They catch you because all you're doing is block.
You have to attack!
So they can't even think about catching you.
You!
How do I attack so many...
That's why people have
vital points.
I hear you attend the same church with the chief prosecutor of Financial and Tax Crimes Investigations Unit 2
at the Central District Prosecutors' Office?
Do you know Elder Yoon Byung Wook?
I've known him since I was little.
My father was Chief Prosecutor Yoon's supervising prosecutor.
Your father is?
He is the chief prosecutor of the Central Investigation Department of the Supreme Prosecutors' Office.
I see...
Actually, the reason I came here
was in large part due to Elder Yoon's guidance.
I see.
When you have time, we should all get together for dinner.
Bastard...
And at the end, the strongest will emerge.
As for him...
Kill him!
That's the way to scare off the rest.
Gil Sang...
Put the knife in his hand.
Hurry up and call the guard.
Or your boss will die here.
Hurry...
Hurry up and put the knife in his hand!
Hurry up and call the guard, you f***!
Guard!
S***.
Geez...
The statements from the inmates in that room are different.
Kim Yo Han smuggled that knife
and he stabbed Song Doo Chul.
Is the fingerprint analysis report on the knife out yet?
There wasn't one fingerprint found.
Are you really suspicious of me?
I need proof that you didn't do it.
Considering witnesses alone,
it's four against one.
Before the week's over, you will be transferred to the Jangsong Prison.
And the trial for this case will be conducted there.
Why?
I hear the inmates call you the Dean?
The reason is that the gambling that occurred in the warden's office every Friday night
was run by you, and those testimonies are circulating among the inmates.
On top of that, there's this murder charge.
If we need to isolate you,
we should send you to the Jangsong Prison, don't you agree?
- Guard! - Wait.
Before that happens, I need to see a lawyer first.
You can call one from the Jangsong Prison.
If anyone is arrested or under custody, he has the right to an attorney.
Isn't that article 12, clause 4 of the Constitution?
I believe the reason for my isolation is unreasonable.
Please allow me to see an attorney at once.
Constitution?
Help me.
I told you not to act like you know me.
The address on the business card in that envelope.
I will remain silent for you, Chairman.
I can add that you had other inmates,
including myself, run errands outside continuously, but...
And what else?
All the matters involving you,
I will forget everything as you wish.
The only thing I want
is that you block Prosecutor Hong Jae Sun.
That's all I ask.
That's no deal.
Hong Jae Sun's plan
is to place the blame for the murder of Song Doo Chul on you
and keep you in prison for a long time.
You only had a few months to go, too.
You've already lost this game.
Fold this game and get up.
And your revenge...
forget all about it.
Or else...
you'll drown in your regrets and die first.
What is it that you really want to say?
Be my possession.
You will only listen to me and look to me.
Then I'll get Hong Jae Sun and Song Doo Chul...
off of your back.
What...
will I have to do?
When you are released,
go and kill someone.
Human blood doesn't clean off well.
It's perfect for a stamp ink pad.
The person who kidnapped my dad and me...
It's the one who killed your grandmother.
Mask...
I just need to unmask him.
Peekaboo.
Ahjussi, are you Yo Han hyung?
I'll help you.
I'll help you so...
you have to save my dad, Hyung.
Yes.
That's not it.

It's our puppy's account.
Only my dad and I know about it.
I've been busy.
3883. Did he go somewhere?
If you're interested in playing in the higher league, come on up.
I really can't do this without you.
Dont' betray me.
What are you doing?
Memorial service.
What?
No. Maybe just praying?
Today is the anniversary of my father's passing.
Just wondering if he's fine over there.
Telling him that I'm about to leave here. Stuff like that.
I never prepared a memorial service.
I do this on this day every year.
Place it inside.
Pick up the glass.
Rotate three times around the incense.
Put it down.
Do a big bow two and a half times.
[Insider]
Aren't you afraid of the law?
The law is not a scale.
It's a knife.
One who has the power will hold the handle.
A knife held by powerless ones to kill me.
Who do I have to kill?
It's an emergency. Am I the only one who thinks that?
Do you think prosecutors are a joke?
All this is because you didn't do a good job of wrapping things up.
If you wrap things up by the day before the official announcement of personnel,
I'll let you remain in Seoul.
Should I put a marker on Jang Sun Oh?
We have to catch both of them at the same time.
Is this the life of an ex-convict?
The outside world isn't all that different from a jail room.
It takes money to stay hidden.
I think it's about to start.
Due to the latest outing, he'd try to avoid getting mixed up with you, Yo Han.
Then I'll have to make him follow.
How?
I'll have him sit at my game table.
Grandmother, please wait a little longer.
