(All characters, organizations, places, and happenings...)
(in this drama are all fake and are not based on a true story.)
What?
Is that...
Jang Tae Joon?
Does that mean he already knew that Kim Do Jin's wife...
was going to get murdered?
Yes, Do Jin.
Can we...
meet right now?
I have something urgent going on.
I think it'll take about an hour.
Okay, I'll see you there.
Si Joon.
What are you doing?
I don't have time, so I'll get right to it.
You need to tell me who the Elder is.
Who the Elder is?
Why do you want to know that?
Si Joon. Don't tell me...
Did you think I didn't know you killed my parents...
because the Elder ordered it?
I'll tell you just one thing.
I wasn't working for Chief Jang.
Chief Jang had been taking my orders.
I'll ask again. Who is the Elder?
Do you think this is a child's game?
You've never gotten blood on your hands.
How dare you try to threaten me?
I killed Captain Moon Jae Hyun who was like a father to me...
with these very hands.
How do you think I'll treat my enemy who killed my parents?
So?
If you do this,
do you think I'll beg for my life?
No.
You won't beg for your life,
you'll beg for death.
You know what this is, right?
It's what Mr. Choi, whom you sent me,
used on me.
I can guarantee the effect from experience.
It is...
very, very painful.
No.
What about this?
I've been curious,
why there was only one entry to her baby.
But it turns out,
the day Kim Do Jin's wife started writing in the diary...
was when she was murdered.
Gosh.
So, to put it all together, you're saying...
there was never a real Elder?
Yes.
That's why it was so hard to identify the Elder.
But even if the organization acts as a single body,
there must be a leader. Who is it?
Should I start over from the beginning?
Cho Min Sook.
Do you mean the CEO of the law firm Chunsan?
Yes, that woman.
That woman is the head of the organization.
I see.
Lend me your phone.
(I've received new information on Mr. Choi's death.)
(Do you have some time?)
(Is it something we can't discuss over the phone?)
(It's a bit sensitive. I'd like to tell you in person.)
(Let's meet...)
Let's meet at Jungsan Park in an hour.
Hey!
Detective Kang.
About Kim Do Jin...
If you look at this photo,
he was also used by Mr. Yoo and Jang Tae Joon.
It wouldn't be far-fetched...
to say they did that to her, either.
Lieutenant Oh.
Yes?
Do you mean,
I should forgive him or something?
No. That's not it, but...
Never mind. I was too emotional. My bad.
Si Joon.
Think this over.
If you kill me now,
you'll have no future.
Kang Dong Soo's team...
already know about me.
Knowing how well-informed the Elder's organization is,
they will soon find out what I've been doing.
Even you had suspected me. Am I wrong?
How much time...
do you think I have left?
Still.
You'll end your life like this?
It isn't too late.
If you change your outlook now, I can...
I have many people's bloods on my hands.
I even personally killed someone who was like a father to me.
I couldn't save my closest colleague, either.
And...
the most precious person in my life...
saw what kind of a person I was.
You're a prosecutor.
If the Elder and his organization committed crimes,
you should make them stand trial before the law.
If that was possible, I wouldn't have come this far.
She probably thinks I'm some monster.
Si Joon.
Prosecutor Yoo!
If I kill you, I have no future?
Everything ends today.
I don't need a future.
Detective Kang, it's me, Si Joon.
I know what you think...
of me.
Are you admitting to ordering Jang Tae Joon...
to have Ji Soo killed?
Park Moon Gi was the only way...
to find the Elder's identity.
I had to protect him...
until I found out the Elder's identity.
In order to catch the Elder,
you killed Ji Soo.
I thought it was a necessary sacrifice for the greater good.
I'm very sorry to Ms. Min.
Be quiet, you jerk!
If you say...
Ji Soo's name again with that disgusting mouth,
I will rip it right off.
Shall we meet?
There's something I must tell you.
Are you sure?
If I see you,
I may kill you.
If that's the price I must pay,
I'll accept it.
What are you up to?
I'll text you the address. It's up to you to decide...
whether or not to come.
Where are you going?
Well...
Right. I need to meet with the storage building owner.
He may have seen Kim Do Jin.
- Call me if anything happens. - Okay. I will.
Why are you alone? Where's Detective Kang?
He went out to check on something.
I see.
Lieutenant Oh.
Can you get me...
the most recent photo of Mr. Park?
Sure.
This was taken a year ago...
at the Prosecutor of the Year award ceremony.
Can you zoom in on his glasses?
What do you think?
Those glasses... Don't they look alike?
They do. But even if those are his glasses,
we don't know what that sketch means.
Look over there.
How likely do you think a matchstick can get stuck there?
Wait.
I think I know where that is.
Where are you?
- Kim Do Jin? - Yes, go ahead.
I had a vision of you shooting me.
That means...
you found out the truth about your wife.
I'm sorry.
How far were you involved?
How far were you involved...
with my wife's death?
Tell me.
(2 months prior)
What's this?
It's a guy named Jung Il Soo.
He goes around raping women with a guy named Seo Bo Yun.
And they're next target is Sergeant Kim's wife.
If we don't do anything, they'll rape her tomorrow.
I asked you to look into Kim Do Jin.
But you went beyond that and looked into what was unnecessary.
Pardon?
Did you foresee what will happen to Sergeant Kim's wife?
Aren't you going to save her?
You know...
that one needs to have a huge amount of anger and resentment...
in order to do what we do.
But even so...
We have no time to waste.
Please get rid of the photos.
Once this all ends,
I'm going to tell Sergeant Kim the truth and ask him for forgiveness.
When it ends, I'll ask him for his forgiveness myself.
I promise.
Chief Jang was against it until the very end.
I'm responsible for everything.
So you knew...
everything?
You knew that my wife was going to get killed...
by that jerk like that?
I won't ask you to forgive me. However,
can you please give me some time?
You know very well how important this matter is.
Once this all ends,
I promise that I'll pay for what I've done to you.
It's also what I had promised to Chief Jang.
Yes. Baek Woo Jin was right.
You probably think what you're doing is carrying out justice.
Because that's also what I thought.
You better take a good look at me.
Because this is how you'll look in the future.
Call it justice or an act for a better cause.
You can call it whatever you want.
But we were never given the right to sacrifice...
another person's life.
Now, I get...
what you made me do.
I've been doing...
terrible things so far.
Prosecutor Yoo.
I'm going to kill you.
So go ahead and stop me if you can...
with that great foreseeing gift of yours.
I can't say this is unexpected.
But let me tell you this.
I'm not the one who you'll be fighting against.
Did Yoo Si Joon tell you that I'm here?
If I must tell you, then yes.
I guess I could say Yoo Si Joon told me.
I know I can't give you any excuses...
for what I did to Prosecutor Min.
But the death...
of my wife, Soo Young,
was also part of Yoo Si Joon's plan.
Let me ask you just one favor.
At least let me kill...
Yoo Si Joon myself.
After that, I'll turn myself in. No.
You can just...
kill me yourself.
I know.
I know you got used by Yoo Si Joon.
And I know that...
he played smart to make us...
meet each other here.
But one thing that will never change...
is that you killed Ji Soo.
Let's end it here.
What are you doing right now?
Yoo Si Joon's plan...
is for us to fight and die.
I don't want to get used by him until the very last moment.
I'm not going to fight.
I'm sorry.
You brutally killed Ji Soo,
and now you even want to feel at ease?
I'm sorry.
Turn yourself in.
Stay alive,
and repent on...
your sins.
Why...
are you letting me live?
Because Ji Soo wouldn't want me...
to kill you.
Kim Do Jin.
If I see...
Ms. Min,
I'll get on my knees...
and beg for forgiveness.
I can't even dare ask you to forgive me.
The two of us...
fought enough.
So...
So if...
we meet in the afterlife...
You're finally home.
You're late.
You must be tired.
You can rest now.
Kim Do Jin.
Hey.
What?
What happened?
You need to take a look.
He was shot to death, but there are signs of torture.
Torture?
He wanted to get something out of him.
What could that have been?
It depends on who killed him.
If Si Joon killed him,
it would've been information about the Elder.
Do you think my brother killed him?
He killed his parents,
and had information about the Elder.
Do you still think it wasn't Si Joon?
- His cell phone. - What?
They didn't find his phone near the body.
Look at the desk. It's the same as your sketch.
There's a pattern lock.
I have to bring it to Lieutenant Oh.
Is something wrong?
Kim Do Jin is dead.
- Don't tell me you... - No.
If you didn't kill him, who did?
Si Joon.
I asked you before,
whether you're prepared to bring him in.
I hope...
you've made up your mind now.
It's been unlocked.
Check it.
(Chunsan, CEO Cho Min Sook)
(I've received new information on Mr. Choi's death.)
(Do you have some time?)
(Let's meet at Jungsan Park in an hour.)
"Chunsan, CEO Cho Min Sook"?
Chunsan Law Firm.
It's the largest law firm in the nation.
Cho Min Sook is the CEO there.
Park Moon Gi didn't send this.
Check the time it was sent.
Park Moon Gi was tortured for a very long time before he died.
This isn't a message someone who was tortured would've sent.
Then who...
It was my brother.
Your brother is after Cho Min Sook.
If they were meeting an hour from then...
It's 11pm now.
It's way past.
I'm going to call that woman Cho Min Sook...
and warn her.
Hold on.
It's my brother.
(Si Joon)
Hello?
You must be searching for me by now.
Are you with Cho Min Sook right now, by any chance?
Cho Min Sook is the person who ordered our parents' deaths.
And she's the leader of the Elders group.
- Where are you? - You're the only person...
who can find out where I'm going.
So please,
even if you find out,
you can't come.
What do you mean?
I saw your death.
If you come and try to stop me,
I may have to kill you.
Please, Si Hyun.
My brother says he saw my death.
He said not to come to him,
or he may have to kill me.
Si Hyun.
I need to find out where he is. He must've...
taken that woman, Cho Min Sook, to that place.
How many sketches do we have left now?
I'm sure one of them will give us a clue on where that place is.
Si Hyun.
I'm sorry.
To tell you the truth, we actually had the fifth sketch.
What?
Why did you keep it from me? You said the sketch showed Si Joon.
Why did you hide it from me?
Because I was worried you'd react like this.
What did you just say?
I know you're willing to risk everything for Yoo Si Joon.
We both know what happened to Captain Moon.
I thought it'd be better not to show it to you.
Where's the sketch?
I burned it to ashes.
Why? Did you think that I'd get in the way...
of your revenge?
Yoo Si Hyun!
- It's not that. - Jang Tae Joon is dead,
and even Kim Do Jin is dead now.
What? Do you now want my brother dead to complete your revenge?
If killing him...
is the only way we can stop him...
Yes, I will kill him.
You once said that Si Joon has turned into a monster.
To me, it looks like you've turned into a monster as well.
You said he foresaw your death in the vision he received.
Who do you think will kill you?
Well, please try to remember what you saw.
But the thing is, I only took a brief look at it.
Lieutenant Oh, please help me out here.
Right. It looked like a classroom.
But it didn't look like it was in use.
Are you saying it could be a school that's been shut down?
Probably.
There was a window.
And there was a statue outside the window.
Gosh, what was that thing? It had something around it.
It looked like a suit of armor.
Did it look like...
a statue of a general?
I'm not sure, but that's very likely.
It'll take some time, but I'll try to find an abandoned school...
that has a statue of a general.
Did Corporal Yoo go somewhere?
I'm not sure.
She disappeared while I was printing this.
Where are you now?
I'm headed to the location in the final sketch.
- Corporal Yoo! - Detective Kang.
I think I know...
why Si Joon took Cho Min Sook to that place I know.
And...
I also think I know why he called me.
What are you talking about?
He wants me to stop him.
He knows that he can't stop himself.
He must want me to stop him.
As for the question you asked me...
I'll answer it now.
If Si Joon must be arrested,
I'll do it with my own hands.
No, it's something that I must do.
And if the only way to stop his pain is...
If it's...
If we must kill him like you saw in the sketch,
I will do it.
Corporal Yoo. Yoo Si Hyun!
Lieutenant Oh, please track the location of Corporal Yoo's phone.
Yes, I'm on it.
I can't track it. Her phone is off.
What should we do?
I have no idea how long it'll take me to compile a list...
of abandoned schools with a statue of a general.
She figured out the location just from what you told her.
That means it's a place she's familiar with.
A place she's familiar with...
Oh, come to think of it,
I remember her saying...
she used to live on the outskirts of Jinyang as a kid.
(Jinyang, abandoned school, statue)
Okay.
- I found the place. - Send me the address.
Do you know who I am?
Mr. Park told me about you.
You're the reporter Yoo Jin Gyu's son,
right?
If your goal had been avenging your parents' deaths,
you wouldn't have had to bring me all the way here.
What do you want?
The cold sale.
To sell all of that off,
you'll need a large trading room and many dealers.
Tell me its location.
What is...
so...
funny?
You can't stop the cold sale.
I am at the top of the organization,
but what I do is...
overseeing things and mediating the general flow.
I do not know every single detail about the cold sale.
If you wish to avenge your parents' deaths,
it wouldn't be a bad idea to kill me here now.
But my death...
will not make our organization perish.
Why?
Because there are many members who can replace me.
That's the scariest thing about our organization.
It consists of many legs that carry out their own tasks,
but it has no head.
Even if you cut off one leg,
they won't have any trouble walking toward their goal.
In the end, the victory will be ours.
Your goal isn't to take revenge on behalf of your parents.
It's to change the world, isn't it?
I understand that.
It may be hard to understand right now,
but the essence of our goal is the same as yours.
Our goal is to make the world a better place.
You want to make the world a better place?
You mean a better place for you folks?
No.
Don't you think...
a competent person should be the one...
to lead the world?
That's what we think as well.
The only difference between us is in the speed and method...
of how we proceed with our plan.
It's a very minor difference.
What do you say you join us?
You need power in order to change the world.
We're capable of giving you that power.
It's not too late.
You don't need to repeat...
your father's mistake.
Detective Kang, where are you?
I'm almost there. Did you not get a hold of Corporal Yoo yet?
No.
Detective Kang.
I'm going to wait here without moving an inch.
So please come back with Si Hyun, okay?
Corporal Yoo will never die.
At least not today. I won't let her die.
Okay, I trust you.
Please bring her back.
I told you...
that you won't be able to get rid of our organization by killing me.
But at least I'll be able to warn them.
Was that what you've been wanting to do?
You're the one who started the fight.
But now that we're too big to fight against,
are you just going to scare us and run away?
If you pull that trigger,
everything will end as of that moment.
You and everyone single person you're connected to...
will end up dying.
Si Joon!
I told you not to come.
But you did.
Put that gun down.
I can't stop.
This is the only path that's left for me.
No.
Even if you get rid of the Elder,
another person will take his place.
And the guy who does will be even worse...
because he'll already be aware of what you've done.
He'll be more careful and clever.
He'll only become stronger.
Your sister seems to have a better sense of judgment than you.
- Si Joon! - So what are you saying?
Are you saying we should just watch these guys?
That's not what I'm saying.
I'm saying we should catch them with law and order.
Why are you trying to change everything all by yourself?
We can all work together to do it.
The world doesn't change that way.
No.
Every change was made that way.
True change and revolution is made by everyone gathering their power.
I don't want to debate with you here.
If you want to stop me, just kill me.
If you don't,
I'll shoot you instead.
I told you, Si Hyun.
I foresaw...
your death.
Please... Please don't do this.
Shoot me, Si Hyun.
Shooting me...
is the only way you can stop me.
I've killed way too many people...
to stop by myself.
The only person who can stop me is you.
Shoot me!
Si Joon. Si Joon, please.
Then I'll shoot.
Gosh. Detective Kang.
(Joongsan Daily)
("How Far Is the Elder Planning to Go?")
The people behind the current economic crisis called cold sale...
are starting to get exposed.
A list of some powerful leaders of our country got exposed...
and shocked the citizens.
Meanwhile, the prosecution announced...
that they'll be carrying out a transparent investigation.
(We want the Elder to step back!)
(Eliminate the Elder!)
(Reveal who's behind the economic crisis of 2018.)
(What an embarrassment. Our country got played around by the Elder.)
Si Joon.
Thank you.
For what?
For saving my brother.
Were you really planning to kill your brother?
If you actually ended up killing him,
you would've lived your entire life in regret.
I never had the intention to save your brother.
I went there to save you.
So you ended up changing the prediction shown in my sketch.
Aren't you coming?
But there's one thing that keeps bothering me.
Yoo Si Joon definitely had a chance to kill us.
Why do you think he hesitated?
I'm not sure.
He probably saw something that we couldn't see.
Something that we couldn't see... What could it be?
So what's your plan now?
Will you return to the Violent Crimes Unit?
Well, I guess I should.
We were just starting to bond. I'm a little sad.
But we still have things to wrap up before that.
Yoo Si Hyun and Kang Dong Soo.
You received all the information on the two of them, right?
Yes.
They're very likely to put our organization in serious jeopardy.
They're dangerous.
We must get rid of them as quickly as possible.
A small crack can make even a large dam collapse, you know.
And it is our job to patch up...
even the littlest cracks.
Yes.
Especially that young lady, Yoo Si Hyun.
Please take care of her first.
All right. I'll consider the job done, then.
So this is all the information Yoo Si Joon had on the Elder?
That's right. Let's get started.
Turn on the news. Hurry up.
Starting with big domestic and foreign investors, many are...
selling public enterprises' debentures at bargain prices,
which are shaking up the market.
Due to this unexpected debenture sales craze,
the KOSDAQ and KOSPI indexes took a deep plunge,
and some are concerned that the financial crisis...
of 1997 may repeat.
It has begun.
The real fight begins now.
Will we be able to catch the Elder and those in the organization?
Is it important to know whether we can do it or not?
We'll do it if it's something that must be done.
I'm sorry. Mr. Yoo refuses to see you.
I see.
Is there any message I can relay to him?
No. I'll visit again another time.
All right, then.
My sketches have taught me...
that everything in the world...
is connected and that we all affect each other.
And for that reason,
nothing in this world is insignificant or meaningless.
Everything that exists...
is meaningful, and its existence in and of itself is its goal.
The Principle of Causality isn't about what's right or wrong.
It questions our ability to accept life as it is...
and how we can take responsibility for our own choices.
The same goes for my sketches.
There was a time when I considered my abilities as a curse.
But I now know...
that my sketches are neither a curse nor a gift.
It's just like a road sign.
In the end, what decides which direction we'll go...
is not a road sign.
It's our choice.
I do not know where this path will end,
but I will not stop walking.
(Sketch)
(Thank you for watching Sketch.)
