Huisoo!
-Open the door. -Open up!
-Get off. -Come this way.
Are you okay?
What?
Mr. Choi.
Sorry.
What were you saying?
I asked you when you started teaching.
Oh, right.
Well, it's been about ten years.
How was it...
being a teacher?
YEAR 2004, NATIONAL INTELLIGENCE SERVICE
PERSONAL DETAILS NAME: CHOI ILHWAN
SPECIAL FORCES: 1996-1999 NATIONAL INTELLIGENCE SERVICE: 2001-
So you joined here with your experience as a national kendo athlete and a soldier?
Yes, sir.
-And you want to be a black agent? -Yes, sir.
We're a classified group within the NIS, so how did you find out about us?
I met Mr. Jo Raehyuk for the first time
during the armed spies mop-up eight years ago.
So why do you want to be a black agent?
To exterminate North Korea's dark ambition that threatens our peace
and repay the country
with all my body and soul!
Not that.
Be honest with me.
In Gangneung eight years ago,
I couldn't do anything while my comrades were dying.
I felt helpless.
That was when a black agent saved us.
I heard there was a group consisting of elite black agents.
I'd like to be a helping hand to them.
A helping hand?
Come here.
Do you know what a black agent is?
A black agent works for the country with their identity hidden.
Hiding one's identity
means they have a secret to keep from their family as well as friends.
Can you handle it?
Yes, sir.
And you don't care whatever task you're given?
No, sir.
Your mission
is to find potential talents and develop them to work for the country.
It's an essential project for national security.
You must be thoroughly objective when looking for potential talents.
Yes, sir.
Judge the students in a strictly objective manner.
Subjective and personal feelings
will only hinder your judgment.
So keep your head cool at all times and put useless emotions aside.
Yes, sir.
No matter how much time passes,
you must keep this principle.
Yes, sir.
Choi Ilhwan.
Yes, sir!
You are a black agent.
Thank you, sir.

Sir, I want a different partner. I can't do this with him.
Hey, swap partners with me.
-Go do it with him. -No.
-Sir, let me change partners. -I don't want to.
-Okay, sit quietly. -Jeez.
It stings. Darn it.
That's enough.
-Go sit down. -Okay.
Back off.
Hmm...
The principal is freaking nuts.
-What's the deal with the battery? -Who cares?
He's letting us slide for smoking.
Let's try taking the simple route.
It'll be the easiest and most precise.
Is it really necessary?
If he gets beaten up to a pulp,
he'll use whatever he can to survive.
But he's still young.
Look, Mr. Choi. He will graduate soon.
We have no time.
We at least need to report a definite yes or no.
-Still-- -Hey, Choi Ilhwan.
This is an assignment.
Let's just get it done quickly.

A Broadcasting and Entertainment major? That's so out of the blue.
Your practical exam scores aren't quite good enough…
for a PE major.
You told me to prepare for a PE major
so that's all I've been doing.
The school thought you were talented in sports,
but it wasn't the case.
The principal told my mother that I had potential.
That's why I even transferred here.
Sorry about that.

Nice to meet you.
I'm Jang Huisoo's dad.
So...

Are you having a meeting?
Thank you for your time.
-I'm sorry for the inconvenience. -No problem.
Have a seat.
Let me get you some tea.
CCTV.
I don't have anything else to offer.
We only have green tea here.
Would that be all right?
It's fine.
Whoa!
Open the door.
I need to clean.
Why aren't you opening the door?
I saw you go in here.
That damn Korean-Chinese lady...
What is it?
What do you want?
I need to clean.
Do it tomorrow.
I need to do it now.
Are you kidding me?
-Jeez. -Thank you.
Fuck...
I didn't even get to do...
I think the battery malfunctioned all of a sudden.
Goodness, there was a problem with the battery?
All right.
-Let me get your personal info. -Let's go.
Hm?
-Your name? -I lied to my dad.
And you lied to your mom.
Mm.
-Right. -So let's go.
Okay.
-Let's hurry. -It's 4028...
So you're currently working for Donga Traffic Service,
-on bus number 304? -Yes.
Your charger.
I think I dropped it.
It's okay. I'm close to Bungaeman. I can look for it later.
-Are you sure? -Yes, it's all right.
-Then let's go. -Okay.
There's a trace of someone
unscrewing the rusty nut.
The parent who just left
is someone I used to know.
Her child and my child,
I assume they're in the same class.
And the boy who saved my daughter,
I assume he's in their class, too.
Yes.
I remember seeing someone with similar moves
as that boy who saved my daughter.
I think I know...
who his parent is.
And...
after my daughter got expelled from her previous school,
no other school took her in except for this school.
She joined your class.
Three children of those who used to know each other
are in the same class at the same school.
Could this be a coincidence?
That's...
One more thing.
The CCTV cameras that monitor the children.
I wondered what it was about.
CHOI ILHWAN
At first,
I suspected you, because you were their homeroom teacher.
However...
right here...
there's another surveillance camera in the ceiling.
You need to come in.
One on the first-floor hallway of the main building.
Two in the Career Guidance Room on the fourth floor.
One in the Teachers' Office 1 on the second floor.
One on the third-floor study hall of the annex building.
You wouldn't be monitoring yourself.
Did you not know...
that someone was watching you?
No.
Who are you?
