EPISODE 13
Miss!
Yes, Do-Chang.
We just collected Oh Jong-tae's DNA.
We'll take it straight to the lab.
Okay.
Tell them it's urgent and ask them to speed it up.
Okay.
Do-Chang.
This is our station's vehicle entry log for the day Jang Jin-su was murdered.
Nam Gook-hyun's car was parked in the morning and exited the lot the next night.
There's a chance Nam Gook-hyun was lying when he testified that Jang Jin-su went to
arrest Lee Dae-chul by himself while he was tracking down Lee Dae-chul's whereabouts.
So you're saying Jang Jin-su and Nam Gook-hyun moved together in one car that day?
This is Nam Gook-hyun's credit card history from five years ago.
He bought cigarettes from a store that was 5 minutes away from the scene.
It matches the time of the murder.
Did you look into Oh Jong-tae's alibi?
Yes, he attended an opening ceremony for Busan Hotel with his father that day.
People saw him there.
And there's almost zero chance that Jong-tae
could've left an event when his father was there.
Once we get the DNA results,
we'll be sure that Jong-tae is the one who killed Yoon Ji-sun.
All we have left to do is find out who killed Jang Jin-su.
Let's supplement the prosecutions article with statements from congressmen.
Toss it to the politics team and ask them to do it.
Yes, sir.
Any updates on Kim Gi-tae's trials?
No, nothing much.
Did you meet with him?
I was only able to talk to him on the phone.
He asked me to tell you that he's praying fervently and wants you to go easy on him.
I don't know why he keeps involving me in his business.
That's it for today.
I guess you didn't go home last night. Were you here all night?
Yes.
I personally received a tip for a story.
Hey.
I need to ask you something.
Do you remember that report?
It was when you were reporting on the police.
Yeah.
Why were you trying to find a man named Jo Sung-gi?
It was when Mr. Yoo was working the desk.
The headquarters told us to look into Jo Sung-gi.
So Mr. Yoo went to Gawol Church to find Jo Sung-gi after the report, right?
I don't know.
Mr. Yoo wrote that he took a business trip on the log.
So he did go to see him.
Right?
Why did Mr. Yoo go see him?
Why are you asking me instead of Mr. Yoo?
What?
Is there a reason you can't ask him directly?
No.
I'll ask him myself.
You got the facts from the police for that report, right?
I just need you to confirm that.
Thanks.
I'm not sure.
I don't know.
You remember the murder that happened 5 years ago near the town's entrance, right?
They found a body in the field.
Yes, of course I remember.
Did you see this man on that day?
Who is this man?
He's a journalist.
From Junghan Daily.
Oh, a journalist did come to see our pastor that day.
I'm not sure if it was this man though...
But I think I remember him saying he was from Junghan Daily.
INVESTIGATING JO SUNG-GI
FOR RAPE AND TORTURING...
DISAPPEARED WITHOUT A TRACE...
THE COLLEGE STUDENT COMMITTED SUICIDE...
A FEMALE COLLEGE STUDENT KILLS HERSELF AFTER TALKING TO POLICE
Mr. Lee.
I'm going out for lunch. Send me a message about your work later.
Okay.
By the way, Ms. Jin had a question for you.
What is it?
When will you be back?
Around three.
I'll ask you then.
I still need to organize my notes.
Okay, I'll talk to you then.
You had a sister, right?
I heard an officer did something bad to her, and she committed suicide.
Is that true?
Jo Sung-gi...
This is hopeless...
What are we supposed to start with?
45 people reside here.
And there are 17 people who could've passed by
this place or witnessed the murder on that day.
Out of those 17, 8 of them were either children or elderly who had difficulty moving.
I've confirmed the addresses of the remaining 9.
Maybe we'll get something if we interview them.
When did you do all of that?
And I noticed something interesting when I looked into the report records.
There was a man named Kim Gwang-hoon who used to be a pastor at Gawol Church over there.
After the murder, he was reported missing.
I think we need to investigate if it has something to do with our case.
Let's go to the church first.
Hey, you think about the case all night and don't even sleep, huh?
Yeah.
You're so strange.
What the hell is team 2 looking into?
I don't know the specifics,
but I think they found new evidence regarding Lee Dae-chul's case.
Evidence?
What kind of evidence?
They've been going to the lab a lot.
So it must be something like DNA.
Really?
Can you find out what exactly they submitted to the lab?
Do you remember the name of the detective who came earlier?
I'm not sure. I did look at his ID...
I think it said Nam something.
- Nam Gook-hyun? - Yes, that's right.
What did he ask about?
He showed me a picture and asked me about a man.
Yes, is this Pastor Kim Gwang-hoon?
Did you work at Gawol Church in Incheon by any chance?
Oh.
Okay.
Thank you. Bye.
He's been working at a church in Gyungnam for the past 10 years.
He's going to send over the records.
So we have no other pastors named Kim Gwang-hoon to look into, right?
Yes.
Does that mean he used a fake name?
He may be a criminal.
I wonder why Yoo Jung-suk would look for him...
And why was he at the scene the day Jang Jin-su was murdered?
And why is Nam Gook-hyun investigating that now?
Detective Insomniac Oh who only thinks about the case all day long,
what do you make of this?
Let's find out where that fake Kim Gwang-hoon pastor is first.
Things should make sense once we find him.
Yes, Ms. Jin. What's up?
I have a favor to ask. Can you look someone up for me?
The name is Jo Sung-gi, a former cop.
Can you email me what you get?
Why are you interested in him?
I'll explain later.
- As soon as possible please. - Sure.
What did Ms. Jin want?
She needs me to look up a man named Jo Sung-gi.
Why?
I don't know.
How can you hand over police information without knowing why?
We're close enough to operate on trust.
What do you mean? What happened between you two?
Hey, tell me!
Are you guys just a detective and a journalist?
Or a man and a woman?
I knew something was going on.
You looked suspicious.
Damn you...
- Hey! - Do-Chang.
What's really suspicious are these two guys.
Jo Sung-gi and Jo Sung-dae.
They were brothers.
I need to talk to you.
Is it urgent?
Let's talk inside.
No.
This will put you in an uncomfortable spot if we talk in the office.
Where are we going?
You know. You went there 5 years ago.
What is it that you want to tell me?
- I'll tell you when we get there. - Tell me now.
Stop putting me in a weird spot.
I'm hoping that what I think is not true.
But I won't be able to judge it just based on your words.
I'll only be able to change my mind once someone confirms the truth.
Who?
One of the two men who brought me all the way here.
You saw the email I sent you, right?
I'm sure that's why you came here.
Yes, I saw it.
But that's just part of my daily tasks.
November 9th, 2015.
Mr. Yoo from Junghan Daily came here to investigate a story.
I'm sure that was in the daily reports you received during that time.
Do you remember the note you wrote on the document?
"Jang Jin-su."
November 9th is when Detective Jang is presumed to have been murdered.
Mr. Yoo visited this church on that day.
It's only 5 minutes away from where Detective Jang was murdered.
You were the prosecutor in charge at the time.
It was the basis on why you connected Mr. Yoo to Jang Jin-su.
I'm sure everyone would be suspicious of it under the circumstances.
Mr. Yoo.
You remember handing me the documents proving Prosecutor Kim's corruption, right?
And you remember telling me to find the real killer because Lee Dae-chul is innocent?
Why did you set this up?
What are you trying to gain from this?
You two have something in common.
You both used me.
One guy used me to get rid of a prosecutor who was
in the way of his brother becoming a Minister.
And the other guy used me to get something on the man who investigated his corruption.
The problem is that I have come closer to finding out the truth while being used.
You know who Jo Sung-gi is, right?
I'm sorry to bring up your painful past.
But you know very well that a journalist must
play a villain's role at a time like this.
When Yoo Jung-ryul was the student president in 1987,
his sister got interrogated by the police who raped and tortured her.
And she committed suicide.
The cop who raped and tortured her was Jo Sung-gi.
On November 9th, 2015,
you met with Jo Sung-gi who was using a fake name Kim Gwang-hoon at this church, right?
I'm sure you know about it too.
He was the brother of Jo Sung-dae, the man who ran your errands.
Jo Sung-gi is missing right now.
What happened between you two that day?
He has been on the wanted list.
How can we say that he's missing just because he went into hiding?
Why did you have his brother, Jo Sung-dae, work for you?
Isn't it because you wanted to know the truth about
what happened on the day Mr. Yoo and Jo Sung-gi met?
That was my intention at first.
But he knew nothing about his brother.
I had him work for me because it was easy to control him since he was a criminal.
Mr. Kim.
So you set everything up.
You pulled out evidence proving Lee Dae-chul's innocence to prompt a reinvestigation.
And you wanted to take revenge on me and my brother
by trying to reveal that I was involved, right?
So what have you found out so far?
Are you saying that I killed someone?
I know you're not someone who can commit murder.
I've known you since you were little.
Then why?
I wasn't trying to reveal who killed who.
I want to reveal who pushed for Lee Dae-chul's execution.
Then Yoo Jung-ryul won't be able to be the Minister anymore.
And your career would be over too.
Does that accomplish your goal for calling me here?
This will make things more difficult for my trial.
You must be confident about your decision seeing how far you've pushed me.
What have you decided?
You're helping Oh Jong-tae.
Why?
Isn't it because you're afraid they'll reinvestigate
Detective Jang's murder once they find out Oh Jong-tae is the real killer?
I don't need to answer that question.
An innocent man died.
I knew that Lee Dae-chul was innocent.
But I did nothing about it as a journalist.
I know it's late, but I still want to reveal the truth.
I want to reveal who the real killer is.
Do it.
Do whatever it takes to find out who it is.
I'll put it on the front page with your name on it.
- Hello? - Is Ms. Jin next to you?
No, it's just me.
I just didn't want any misunderstanding.
I had no choice but to say that in that situation.
What is it that you want to confirm?
I have no choice but to be on your side.
I just want you to know that.
Let's talk in person later.
How did it go? Are you able to visit Jo Sung-dae in prison?
Yes, we can go right now.
Why were you here?
Let me ask one question.
Who do you think killed Detective Jang?
Why do you think it was Captain Nam?
We've confirmed Oh Jong-tae's alibi.
And we've confirmed that Nam Gook-hyun was with Detective Jang on that day.
What about the motive?
Jang Jin-su had evidence that proved Oh Jong-tae was the real killer.
Nam Gook-hyun found out and killed him because of it.
And there's a chance Oh Jong-tae told him to do it.
Did you know that Mr. Yoo was near the scene of the crime?
How did you know that?
So you did know.
I just confirmed it.
I'm sure Mr. Yoo was there.
And I've obtained proof that shows he was there.
Did Mr. Yoo admit it?
Yes.
Did he tell you why he met with Pastor Kim Gwang-hoon at Gawol Church?
His name is Jo Sung-gi, not Kim Gwang-hoon.
He was using a fake name.
The man you asked me to look up earlier?
Yes.
He was wanted for using rape and torture during interrogation 30 years ago.
And Yoo Jung-suk's sister was the victim.
His sister who died in 1987...
Yoo Jung-sun?
Jo Sung-gi is your brother, right?
He used to be a cop and is missing now.
How did you first meet Kim gi-tae?
Did he come to you because he knew you were his brother?
Kim Gi-tae told you to do it, huh?
He told you to look into Lee Dae-chul's case because
it had something to do with your brother, right?
And you found out Oh Jong-tae is the real killer.
You used that to get money from Oh Jong-tae, and you two became accomplices.
That explains why Oh Jong-tae tried to kill Lee Dae-chul in prison.
Oh Jong-tae was afraid the world would find out he
was the real killer after you found out the truth.
So he tried to kill Lee Dae-chul in prison.
Right?
We found proof that Oh Jong-tae killed Yoon Ji-sun.
When we get the lab results, we'll have Oh Jong-tae's
motive for conspiring to kill Park Gun-ho.
You two will have to stand in court in no time.
You need to cooperate to reduce your sentence.
You guys are good.
You found out the truth.
Where is your brother right now? Are you in contact with him?
He's dead.
He might be in hiding because he's wanted by the police.
I owe my brother money.
But he hasn't contacted me for it.
And all he cares about is money.
It means someone killed him.
He did commit a lot of crimes.
When was the last time you talked to him?
It was when he was a pastor at a church.
I told him I'd pay him back.
And he told me he'd call me back after he made an account to receive the money.
But that was the last time I heard from him.
What's the exact date?
On that day...
That day that...
your team's detective died.
How come the police didn't do anything when Jo Sung-gi was reported missing?
They couldn't find him because the it was filed under his fake name.
If Jo Sung-gi really died that day like Jo Sung-dae said...
That would make Yoo Jung-suk the main suspect.
I think we need to find Jo Sung-gi first.
Then we'll be able to solve Jang Jin-su's murder too.
So the person who killed Jang Jin-su is also...
It it happened at the same place, it may be the same person.
It's too early to say that...
Hey.
We already have our hands full with Oh Jong-tae.
Why do we have to bring in editor of Junghan Daily into this?
You guys are pushing it!
We've already come so far.
We need to see it through to the end.
Then let's have the Seoul headquarters or the branch office handle Yoo Jung-suk.
This is not something a country bumpkin sergeant can handle!
That's why he can do it.
The smart people won't even touch it.
Do-Chang can do it because he doesn't care.
You hanging in there?
Of course.
I've worked really hard to get to where I am.
Yeah.
You should go all the way to the top and get revenge on the guys who did this to you.
This is a hurdle I need to get over.
In order to do that, I need something big.
Wouldn't it be better to keep a low profile instead?
Do you know why I came to the auditing office?
It's because it holds all of the organization's information.
Information is what you need to make the weak strong and the strong weak.
But sometimes you need more than just information.
Timing is important.
Put it in simpler terms.
You just keep pushing forward.
I'll make sure the timing is right.
I said put it in simpler terms.
You don't need to understand it.
Just know that I'm going to help you.
Why?
You know nothing good will come out of you helping me.
Is it because you feel a sense of loyalty toward me?
Sense of loyalty?
I don't have that.
It's all for my own good.
Don't let them push you down.
Keep going.
So you're saying I just need to do what I want to do.
Do-Chang!
You need to come to the office.
- There's something you need to see. - Okay.
- You're finished, right? - Yes.
Do-Chang!
Good luck!
Did the shock from what happened drive you crazy--
I've never had such a clear head as I do right now.
- You're sure? - Yes.
I got scared because you changed so abruptly!
If you feel even the slightest bit off,
you should get checked up at a hospital.
Get your brain checked, okay?
It's not near Gawol Church.
It came from a patrol station that's quite a bit far from there.
They found it the day after Detective Jang was murdered.
Did you check what kind of car it was?
Yes, it belonged to Gawol Church.
And the location?
It's about 30 minutes away from Gawol Church.
We should be able to find something from this.
Jae-Hong,
call Ji-woong and Man-gu and tel them to come to where this picture was taken.
Dong-wook, ask the officers at the patrol station that had this to all come here.
Okay.
Put in a request for backup from the task force just in case.
Let's work with a minimum number of people.
We don't know what we'll find.
You can speak louder. Everyone knows.
Fine, we'll try to handle it ourselves.
Okay.
I'm not saying we shouldn't do this.
11/10/2015 12:20AM
Who took this picture?
It was me.
Did you find anything inside the car?
No, everything was burnt. There was nothing left.
He got rid of the evidence.
He put the body in the car and buried it somewhere.
And then got rid of the evidence.
So we need to find the body.
Do-Chang, how are we supposed to find a body this late at night?
It's been 5 years so there won't be any traces left...
Someone told me earlier to just keep pushing forward.
Let's do this.
No?
- Let's do this. - Let's do this!
- Louder. - Let's do this!
I knew that Lee Dae-chul was innocent.
And I did nothing about it as a journalist.
I know it's late but I want to reveal the truth.
I want to reveal who the real killer is.
How are we supposed to find something when we can't see anything?
This is harassment. We won't be able to find anything!
Hey, did you get anything?
Yes, come here!
What is it?
Did you find some kind of evidence?
What is it?
It's ginseng.
I told you I could smell it.
Smell that guys!
This is at least 10 years old.
This is the best.
You shouldn't be digging up ginseng right now.
Hey, all we'll be able to find here are ginsengs.
It's too late to get anything.
Ji-woong is right.
We would've found the body a long time ago if it were here.
Dig up some more so we can cook them.
It's rare to find one this big.
It's at least 10 years old.
Another one!
This one is bigger!
What are you doing?
If Yoo Jung-suk really killed Jo Sung-gi,
do you think he would've made predictable steps?
Yoo Jung-suk has been a journalist for more than 10 years.
He has covered numerous murder crime scenes.
He wouldn't have buried a body at a place that we would expect.
If it's not near here,
that means he carried the body himself and went somewhere else.
Doesn't that seem more implausible?
He wouldn't have been able to go far.
I'm sure that Yoo Jung-suk was at the scene on the day Jang Jin-su was murdered.
So Yoo Jung-suk killed Jang Jin-su?
Yes.
That's what I believe.
On what grounds?
Considering the circumstances back then,
I'm sure he killed Jang Jin-su.
Will you be able to find proof?
It happened 5 years ago.
It would be impossible to find proof.
So it's just a speculation.
You wouldn't be able to be so sure of it if you weren't at the scene.
Go ask Yoo Jung-suk yourself.
Try to fish it out of him.
Then you'll realize...
Oh.
This man killed Jang Jin-su.
There's not a good enough reason for him to kill Jang Jin-su.
Let's say you killed someone...
And someone had seen you do it.
What would you do?
And what if that witness was a detective?
The man Yoo Jung-suk met with that night is currently missing.
Nice work.
Thank you for your work. You can go now.
We'll return to our station then.
- Good luck. - Take care.
Do-Chang.
It's been 5 years. There won't be any traces left.
We'll only get something if we get more people or turn over the grounds with a crane.
This has to be the place since this is where the car was found.
But still--
Are we allowed to make fire here?
This is where an important piece of evidence was found.
Shouldn't we preserve the scene?
It's been 5 years already. Who cares?
The basics of preserving a scene.
We have to preserve the scene where we find important piece of evidence.
A journalist who has covered crime stories would know that.
The police would never damage the crime scene.
I guess you didn't go home last night.
Come here Mr. Lee.
Yes, sir.
Isn't the location wrong?
We can't receive complaints about small thing like this.
You didn't even check that?
I apologize sir.
Hello?
Did you confirm it?
Boss.
I think I need to dip out of the meeting.
Why?
The police called and said they found skeletal remains of a murder victim.
Where?
Okay, you can go.
Did you identify the victim?
No.
Who do you think it is?
Jo Sung-gi?
What did they find in the evidence storage room?
Evidence that Detective Jang found right before Oh Jong-tae's car was scrapped.
If they find Oh Jong-tae's and Yoon Ji-sun's DNA from there,
it will prove that Oh Jong-tae is the one who killed her.
NOVEMBER 9TH, 2015 11:15PM
I told you there was no point in going.
What other evidence do we need?
We won't have a problem arresting Lee Dae-chul with the evidence we have.
I'm not trying to find traces of Lee Dae-chul.
Then what is it?
Oh Jong-tae.
Oh Jong-tae?
Why are you talking about him all of a sudden?
Oh Jong-tae is the real killer.
On what grounds are you saying that?
You know that too.
What the hell are you talking about?
Damn it...
Why all of a sudden?
What is it that you found?
Why are you changing the direction of the investigation?
I know that you've been contacting Oh Jong-tae's father, Oh Jong-su.
Have you been doing a background check on your partner?
Lee Dae-chul has an alibi!
You have something, huh?
Tell me the truth.
Did you receive something from Oh Jong-su?
Did he pay you to exclude his son from the investigation? Tell me!
Hey.
Jin-su!
This is a misunderstanding.
Lee Dae-chul is the killer.
I found evidence that proves Oh Jong-tae is the real killer.
I'm going to send it to the lab right away.
The results will prove that Oh Jong-tae is the killer.
So why?
Why did you set up an innocent man?
Why?
Jin-su.
Lee Dae-chul is a bad man.
He would've killed someone sooner or later.
What?
I was going to tell you this later.
Jin-su, if things go well with this,
it will change our lives.
What did you just say?
Come here!
Get up.
I had no idea you would be like this!
Let me finish.
No!
You're worse than a murderer.
How can you frame an innocent man for murder?
You're supposed to be a detective!
Okay.
I'm sorry.
Jin-su.
I must've lost my mind for a second.
I'll return everything back to its place.
Forgive me...
Forgive me just this once.
Gook-hyun, this is not like you.
Why would you do that?
Sir.
I think it will be hard to do anything now.
What?
Team 2 is almost done.
They'll find out the truth of Lee Dae-chul's case soon.
And they'll find out what you did.
What is it that you think I did?
I thought Do-Chang was framing you at first.
But he's not.
Do-Chang is not playing around.
He's going to do whatever it takes to get to the bottom of it.
And what is it that you think they'll find?
You think they can touch me?
Them touch me?
How did you find the skeletal remains?
He might not be able to make friends with real people, but he's close with the dead.
He's an expert at finding bodies.
How are you going to proceed with the case?
We'll have to investigate why Jo Sung-gi died.
I think solving this case will also solve Jang Jin-su's murder.
What are you going to do?
Are you going to write about it?
We'll confirm the identity once we get the DNA results from the remains.
And if it is really Jo Sung-gi, we'll find out who killed him.
Will you be able to write about it at Junghan Daily?
I'll have to write about it.
It will be a Junghan Daily exclusive.
Now I get why Yoo Jung-suk tried so hard to bury this case.
Do you think he really killed Jang Jin-su too?
If he had killed Jo Sung-gi, he would've not been in the right state of mind.
It's possible.
Let's write up a report first.
Let's hold off on reporting it to the prosecution.
Okay.
Hello?
Please go ahead.
It's me, Nam Gook-hyun.
Where are you right now?
Why do you keep harassing me?
We know everything that you did. Come here.
Let's talk in person.
You can come defend yourself if you want to.
I'm too busy to come all the way there.
You can do whatever you want,
but don't get me involved.
Nothing good will come out of us fighting against each other.
Just come here--
Do-Chang.
You said you hate it when someone else suffers because of you, right?
Let's both be careful so that doesn't happen.
Hey! Nam Gook-hyun!
Do what?
Just rest up until you hear about your disciplinary action.
I'll accept whatever the superiors decide on.
I won't file any complaints.
So give me one last chance in exchange.
I already gave you a chance!
And what have you gotten from the west division so far?
You only said there were no issues. You didn't do anything.
The reason I hesitated was because I was looking for something big.
And I've finally found something.
No one knows more about the west division than me.
I ended up like this because of the west division.
I need to get them back for it.
If you don't find anything again, your disciplinary action will become more harsh.
Go ahead with that in mind.
$1.50 please.
You look familiar.
Where have I seen you before?
Go home and give this message to the person you live with.
Tell him that a man warned you to be careful because
you're too pretty to go unnoticed no matter what you do.
Take care.
Excuse me sir! Wait!
It's you, right?
The man who placed the evidence in my dad's car.
It's you, right?
I know it's you.
I don't know.
I have no idea what you're talking about.
You're the one who made my dad die.
My dad had to die because of you!
You're up to no good.
Don't say stuff like that.
Or else you'll get hurt.
Please!
I'm begging you!
Please tell them that my dad is innocent!
Please!
You know the truth!
Please!
You bastard!
Make my dad come back!
Tell them that my dad is innocent!
SKELETAL REMAINS PRESUMED TO BE JO, A MISSING FORMER COP
I didn't write this in the report,
but a burnt car was found at the scene before the remains were found.
And the car belonged to Gawol Church.
Jo was working at Gawol Church as a pastor under a fake name.
And he went missing after the burnt car was found.
The circumstances confirm that these are the facts.
Did the police reveal his real name?
They'll reveal it once they finish the autopsy.
Is this really an exclusive for us?
Yes.
They said they'll do the press briefing if we don't write about it.
Why would the police do that for us?
I was at the scene when the remains were found.
I asked them on the scene to let us take the exclusive.
Boss, this works.
Let's write it as an exclusive.
Let's publish it tomorrow.
- Where's Eun-hye? - In her room.
Eun-hye, are you okay? What happened?
Mr. Kang, I remember now.
I remember the man who put the evidence in my dad's car and framed him.
Who is it?
It's the guy I saw on the screen during the trial.
The detective who investigated my dad.
I'm sure.
Nam Gook-hyun?
Yes.
He came to the store earlier.
I remembered when I saw his face.
I remembered him.
That bastard...
Mr. Kang.
We can have the trial again now, right?
If I say that the man was him, it will prove my dad's innocence, right?
Please let us have a trial again.
Eun-hye, you see...
What? We need to hurry up and have a trial again!
I remembered him when I saw him.
We need to prove my dad's innocence.
Eun-hye, we can't hold trials just because we want to.
Do-Chang.
I need to talk to you for a second.
Why didn't you tell me?
I heard she has epilepsy.
It's not a serious illness--
I talked to the doctor.
She might go blind.
What?
Why?
If she keeps collapsing...
What did he say...
If her blood pressure spikes, it can damage her optic nerve...
Anyway!
It is a serious illness.
Why did you bring her here?
It's hard to take care of a normal kid. What are you trying to do with a sick kid?
What if something goes wrong and she goes blind?
You think you can take care of her for the rest of your life?
That can't happen.
She's going to go to an art school.
She can't lose her sight...
Art school?
She's going to art school?
Do you know how expensive art schools are?
You wouldn't be able to afford it!
I have to protect her.
Why?
Why you?
I promised Lee Dae-chul!
I promised him that I'll walk her down the aisle when she gets married.
Why?
Why did you make that promise? Why you?
Because I made Lee Dae-chul die!
I made her innocent dad die!
That's not your fault.
It's not.
It's not your fault so why do you have to take on a burden like her?
Eun-hee.
Every time I think of Lee Dae-chul,
it feels like there's a needle stabbing my heart.
Even if she tries to run away from me,
I'll have to hold on to her.
So I won't be in pain.
I'm not taking care of Eun-hye.
Eun-hye is taking care of me.
We can't do anything about it.
That's how retrials are.
If it gets dismissed,
we can't hold another trial for it.
Then what am I supposed to do?
My dad died because I couldn't remember the man's face.
How am I supposed to live with myself?
My dad died because of me.
I told you it's not your fault.
You've--
You've just made up the reason yourself.
Don't lock yourself up in the hell you've created.
Or else you won't be able to survive.
Nam Gook-hyun called me earlier.
I was wondering what he was saying.
But he meant that he'll harm Eun-hye if I don't stop chasing after him.
Nam Gook-hyun must be very nervous right now.
We're closing in on him.
I won't let him get away with this.
Eun-hye might lose her eyesight because of him.
Her dream is to become a painter.
You don't need to worry about that.
We can treat her eyes.
And we'll send her to art school.
It's easier said than done.
The reality sucks.
I had to pay a lot in property taxes this year.
And a lot in interest income tax too.
I can't believe you're bringing up taxes to show off your wealth.
You really suck!
Get out of here!
My accountant said making a donation will reduce my taxes.
I've been thinking about where I should donate my money to.
Where do you want to donate to?
No need to look far.
There's one right there.
Everyone has a cause to donate to around them. There's one right there.
No need to look far.
You're right.
I didn't think about that.
My goodness!
You've got a good head on your shoulders.
I'm so proud of you.
- You're getting a call. - What?
Your phone.
How did you hear something I didn't?
What is it?
Okay.
Submit a request for Oh Jong-tae's arrest warrant then.
Did you get a call from the prosecution?
Not yet sir.
What if they dismiss it again?
Don't worry.
I'll go cause a scene at their office if they do.
Hey, they won't even bat an eye at a sergeant.
I'll go.
They'll notice a chief.
Really?
You can do that?
What happened with the body from Gawol Church?
You see...
We'll have the suspect once we confirm the victim's identity.
Who is the suspect?
You see sir...
It's Yoo Jung-suk, the editor of Junghan Daily.
The brother of the Minister of Justice?
Yes...
- Is that true? - Yes, sir.
We got it while investigating Detective Jang's murder.
What's wrong with you?
Are you chasing after people like him on purpose?
Our station is for catching small fishes.
Why do you keep trying to catch whales?
So I was thinking we should hand it over to the headquarters...
- We have no choice. - Right.
We need to catch the whale if it's caught in our net.
But the net might rip or our ship may sink.
Keep that in mind.
You're so good at steering the ship, so that won't happen.
Look at you...
We got an arrest warrant for Oh Jong-tae.
- Hello! - Hi.
- What brings you here?
- Is the chief in his office? - Yeah.
Why do you need to see him?
I need to talk to him about something. Don't mind me.
Where are you right now?
I've submitted it to my superiors.
So the auditing office will announce a disciplinary action for you to the headquarters.
I thought you promised to let go of my son's case last time.
I was just saying I won't make it part of the deal.
Do you have to make a big deal out of this for your office to be satisfied?
You should walk out on your own before you get fired.
Then I'll just end it as a release from your duties.
Are you really...
Chief Moon really accepted the charges?
Yes.
He said he'll accept the dismissal as well.
Why did he accept them so easily?
He did put in a condition that I'll end it at just him.
He doesn't want me to harass his men anymore.
He's trying to look out for them?
But I'm sure his men will realize something too.
They'll know that the chief is getting fired because of them.
Kang Do-Chang won't be able to do as he pleases now, right?
Of course not if he's a smart man.
Hello, this is Yoon Sang-mi from the auditing office.
I'd like to meet with you.
Oh, I'll come to you then.
I said no one is in the office!
When did he leave?
He just left.
What?
He knew we were coming?
- He didn't say where he was going? - No.
He won't answer. His phone is off.
So he caught on to us.
What if he drops off the grid?
We lost Oh Jong-tae!
Get his credit card history right away
and look for him at places he frequents.
Submit a request to track his phone.
Let's go to his home.
He might not know about the arrest warrant yet.
Okay.
What evidence did they obtain?
They got it from your car before it was scrapped.
It will prove that you killed Yoon Ji-sun.
But Yoon Ji-sun's case can't be tried in court again.
The fact that the judge issued an arrest warrant
means that he has accepted it as proof for conspiring to kill Park Gun-ho.
So I need to keep running away from those damn detectives?
This is humiliating.
Did you see today's issue of Junghan Daily?
No, not yet.
You must've come here often. It's your uncle's home.
I lived here for a long time.
I spent my childhood here with Jong-tae.
Why?
My parents died when I was little.
My father was killed.
And my mother had depression and took her own...
The victim's family blame themselves if the killer doesn't get caught.
If I hadn't called my dad asking him to come home early...
If I had screamed when the killer appeared...
Then my dad wouldn't have died.
If I had recognized the man who killed my dad,
my mom wouldn't have died either.
We need to find out who made Lee Dae-chul die.
Then Eun-hye will stop blaming herself for her dad's death.
Yeah.
I didn't think about that.
That's how we can really help Eun-hye.
You should've told me your story a long time ago!
I thought you were just a psycho until now.
Did you opinion of me change now?
Yeah.
You're not a total psychopath.
You're just somewhat psychotic.
Are you sure your opinion didn't change because of my donation?
You know me so well.
A human relationship is built on money.
Hey.
We're in front of his house right now.
What about you guys?
We've connected to the CCTV cameras from the places he frequents.
Yes. I'll call you right away if we spot him.
Can you put up that screen over there?
Sure.
Oh Jong-tae is at a cafe he frequents.
We got his plate number. And we've contacted a patrol car nearby.
Oh Jong-tae was at a brunch cafe he goes to often.
Maybe he doesn't know what's going on yet.
No, he knows.
He was just buying himself time.
The fact that he showed up might mean he has prepared a solution.
Find out where the patrol car is.
And tell them to wait for us.
Yeah.
He's in Jangwondong.
He parked his car and entered a building.
Got it.
Have you already eaten, Minister?
Ms. Kim Myung-sun?
You know her, right?
I met with her, and she said he talked to you a few days ago.
And?
Did you investigate the story?
No, not yet.
Ms. Kim submitted a lot of petitions to us too.
I looked into it and realized that it isn't a simple assault case.
A big body was hidden behind it.
And that's why it was hard for Ms. Kim.
You know what Detective Kang has been up to, right?
Yes, for the most part.
He can't do this alone.
The other side has too much power.
So I'd like to take care of that.
Would you like to help me?
What do you mean by that?
Yoo Jung-ryul, the Minister of Justice.
SKELETAL REMAINS PRESUMED TO BE FORMER COP WHO WENT MISSING 5 YEARS AGO
The department of justice has already issued a verdict
at the retrial regarding Lee Dae-chul's case.
As you know,
there are no legal grounds to punish the real killer even if he gets caught.
But what if the killer confesses?
What if he says that Lee Dae-chul isn't the killer, and the real killer is him.
The people will go crazy.
They'll say that there's something wrong with the legal system.
They'll want to replace the police and the prosecution.
The whole nation will be in chaos.
And all of the fingers will be pointed at the current Minister of Justice.
The problem is that there are two killers responsible
for the two murders that Lee Dae-chul was framed for.
If one confesses to his crime,
then the people will pay attention to who the other killer is.
Minister, shouldn't you do whatever it takes
to stop the killer from making a confession?
Hi.
- It's this building? - Yes.
He's been in there for about 30 minutes.
What about the other entrances?
I've put the guys there.
I don't think he has left yet.
Let's go inside.
Dong-wook?
You're under arrest for conspiring to kill Park Gun-ho.
You have the right to a lawyer.
And the right to remain silent.
I'm sure you know that better than I do.
THE GOOD DETECTIVE
You don't think that I killed Detective Jang too, right?
Catch that killer and let me see him.
You won't be able to interrogate me as a suspect based on circumstantial evidence.
Don't stop here just because I got fired. Destroy them.
I will be back!
What do you want me to do with this?
You're a journalist. Don't you want the story?
Let's do it.
You can ask me directly. Don't try to get it through the police.
I'll talk to you through my article.
I'll accept whatever decision you make.
You just go your own way. That's how you can help me.
The violent crimes team 2's idiots from Incheon's west division...
Let's go catch the whale.
This is Junghan Daily!
I'm warning you. You should be careful.
