Please understand that this decision comes after much debate.
- What's going on? - For all those who supported me...
That's what I'm saying. Why would he suddenly withdraw?
Did you really speak with him?
- When did you decide this? - Is this confirmed?
Don't you feel bad for the citizens who supported you?
- Candidate Kim. - How did you decide this?
The phone is turned off.
Jin Woo, where are you going?
(I will work for the people! Candidate 2, Kim Sung Guk)
Did he confirm this was approved by the party?
What's the point if he resigns now?
What was he thinking?
You know me, Lee Jin Woo from Times.
You visited my office earlier.
(Korean Financial Party)
What are you doing?
Even if you don't apologize to me, I need an explanation, at least.
What do I need to explain to you?
- Excuse me? - Everything I told you before,
wasn't all true.
I thought if I manipulated you into attacking Seo Ki Tae,
I'd get better approval ratings.
I was trying to use you.
I thought you were a hardened reporter.
You still trust the word of politicians?
Why you...
(Wiretap blackmail)
So...
don't come to me anymore.
I have no desire to work with you.
Do you understand me?
(Seo Ki Tae?)
Fine. I guess it's my fault for trusting a politician.
Now, please go.
I hope we don't see each other again from now on.
I feel the same way.
I hope we never meet again.
(Times)
At the news of Candidate Kim Sung Guk's resignation,
we would like to express sympathy and respect.
Candidate Kim did not hesitate...
to create a new kind of politics.
Mr. Kim espoused a new kind of politics.
We believe it is a pity that he withdrew from the election.
Did you meet with him, Jin Woo?
- What did he say? - I did meet with him.
I need to go somewhere now.
Would you like to come with me, Jung In?
Where?
(Episode 12)
It's been a while since I saw either of you. How is your father?
We don't have a relationship where we ask after one another's family.
You must be comfortable here. You're looking good.
Am I the one who called for you? You chose to visit me.
I hear Sung Guk sent you.
He wanted me to tell you what he couldn't say himself.
Sung Guk and I had a little something.
Don't misunderstand.
He's the one who came to me.
Were you supporting Kim Sung Guk from behind the scenes?
Of course not. I don't have that kind of power.
I just gave him some advice.
I need to block Chan Yong from becoming president...
if I ever want to get out of here.
But why did he suddenly withdraw?
What kind of weakness did they get ahold of?
He's reaping the bad seeds he's sown.
What can you do if you need to protect your family?
You have to abandon politics.
In that case, why did Seo Ki Tae threaten Kim Sung Guk?
Now, of all times?
Is it because of the documents he gave me?
Do you really think that one thing would've caused all this?
Sung Guk was plotting something else.
What was he plotting? With whom?
Are you curious about who it is?
You know him quite well yourself.
Seong Beom has found a trump card to take down Seo Ki Tae.
So I introduced Sung Guk to Seong Beom.
What is that trump card?
I don't know that much.
As you can see, my circumstances are limiting.
The only definite thing...
is that Sung Guk withdrew while on his way to pick it up,
because of a phone call from Ki Tae.
Where is Nam Seong Beom now?
I don't know.
I'm sure he's in hiding somewhere after the Sung Guk incident.
(Seonwon, Gyeonggi Province, Hwagang Hotel Room 713)
What will you do now?
Your father is even worse than I am.
Do you know when power begins to corrupt?
It's the moment you take your place in a position of power.
The moment you try to hold on to it,
all of us, you and me included, will do what people always do.
You always said you were the DBS reporter Seo Jung In,
and not President Seo Ki Tae's daughter.
But looking at your expression now,
I see you're having trouble stabbing your father in the back.
It's all right. I understand.
That's how human beings are, isn't it?
Let's go.
Mr. President.
You're an impressive guy.
You've managed to get in here too.
This is nothing.
I know more or less what you were talking about,
so I'll just say what I need to and hang up.
You were once the president of this country.
How can you join hands with Lee Jin Woo and Kim Sung Guk?
You should've joined with me and begged me to save you.
If I had joined you, would you even have tried to save me?
I'm sure I would have debated...
whether or not to save you,
or whether I should keep you around,
in case you prove useful one day.
This isn't over yet.
Once Jin Woo meets the delivery man...
The delivery man? Do you mean Seong Beom?
In the past, the birds would hear what you said during the day,
and at night, only the mice would hear your words.
But now it's different.
Now I'm the one listening, 24 hours a day, to everyone.
Isn't this what you wanted as well, Kyu Min?
Is this what you wanted?
I can't be satisfied with this alone.
The country you dreamt of, the presidency you dreamt of,
I will create something beyond that.
All you have to do is watch, Kyu Min,
from inside your prison cell.
I thought he was a tiger cub,
but it turns out Ki Tae was simply a dog.
He bit me hard.
I got it, so come to the address I sent you quickly.
Young Jae said he'll come, so you can go home, Jung In.
No, I want to go.
Will you be all right?
Of course. I'll be fine.
(Hwagang Hotel)
- Yes? - We've just arrived.
You need to find him and bring him here no matter what.
- Get the elevators out of service. - It's being done now.
(Under inspection)
Start by searching the second floor.
- Why are you so late? - We came as fast as we could.
- Where is it? - Hurry.
Search everywhere.
- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.
Open this door.
Move.
He's not here.
(Flight reservation: Departure)
(Select your departure date)
(Flight reservation: Arrivals)
(Search by country, city, or airport code)
There are so many rooms.
I think it might take a while to find him.
The elevators.
They're broken?
(Under inspection)
Where are the staff?
- What was that? - Wait a minute.
Where are you going?
Is there a fire? What's going on?
Move. Get out of the way.
Try over there.
Come out, Nam Seong Beom.
Where are you, Nam Seong Beom?
There's a group of people...
searching for Nam Seong Beom.
What should we do? I'm bad at fighting.
So are you.
Jung In, how good are you at fighting?
My gosh.
Look, an employee.
We're confirming the location of the disturbance. Please wait.
You guys search there.
Yes, sir.
Come out.
Search everywhere.
Come out, already.
Thank you.
Wait a minute. If he knows it's you, Jin Woo,
maybe he won't do as we ask him to do.
We all don't have a great relationship with him.
Then what should we do?
What?
Why are you looking at me?
Find him.
Come out, come out.
- Assemblyman Nam. - Who is it?
I'm here because Candidate Kim sent me.
Mr. Kim did?
Where is he? Find him.
Is that true?
Are you really someone that Mr. Kim sent?
I can't tell you the details,
but if you use the emergency stairs to come to the parking lot...
What's your plate number? The license plate number?
8597, 8597.
If you come there,
a black sedan with plate number 8597...
will be waiting for you.
All right. I'll go right away.
Try opening this door.
Hey, check this one.
Hey.
If they won't open the door, just break it down.
Yes, sir.
(13H 8597)
Why aren't you getting in?
Who do you think you are?
How dare you use Mr. Kim's name...
I don't think you have the time to nitpick the small stuff.
You must not understand the situation you're in.
If you don't come with us now,
you'll get caught by Park Chan Yong's minions.
Would you prefer that?
Are you going to give up on your life and political career?
Your lifeline has been cut, and you don't have any left to grab.
Just come with us.
Who knows, maybe this will be a new opportunity for you.
Shoot.
Get him.
Get in the car, now!
First, let's hear it.
What were you going to give to Kim Sung Guk?
What's the trump card that will let us get Seo Ki Tae?
If I tell you everything, will you be able to handle it?
We'll judge for ourselves.
Just tell us, first of all.
What were you going to give Candidate Kim?
A long time ago,
not long after Geun Woo's death,
in 2014,
there was a project that we were promoting.
"We"?
Who are you talking about?
You know who it is.
Me, Kim Young Ju,
and Baek Kyu Min. The three of us.
What kind of project was it?
The e-Democratic People's Party Project.
We were ahead of our time.
The e-Democratic People's Party Project...
allows for all administrative work to be done with a mobile service.
"Make it possible to do your work through your smartphone."
Isn't security important for things like this?
There's the danger of getting hacked.
That's why we selected a company that specializes in security.
We said that we can drastically cut down on time and expenses, and such.
That was our intention.
- However, - You don't need to worry.
we had to shut it down before we could try it.
It was because of one person.
Who is it?
Who do you think it is?
Even if you can stop external attacks,
what if someone internally tries to misuse it?
How will you prevent that?
I know what you're thinking.
You can reduce expenses, simplify work procedures,
and promote digitalization.
But all of that is your attempt to cover up the truth.
Ultimately, your goal is to keep an eye on the party's assemblymen...
and the high-ranking officers...
and get information from that.
Is this for my benefit only?
It's for us. It's for our sake.
Think about it.
Who will be sitting...
in this seat after me? This is all for you...
Nobody knows who will end up taking over that seat.
We'll only know this time next year when the elections are over.
Even if it's great technology,
the results differ according to what the intention behind it is.
You should shut it down.
If you continue to promote it, I won't keep my mouth shut.
He wasn't the type of person to get hindered by such words.
But this is just the beginning.
Do you know where I saw...
that company's CEO again?
("KDQ LAB to Develop Access Control App for National Assembly")
He made such a big deal then.
But when he became president,
he did worse things.
Worse things?
If it's an access control app for the National Assembly,
who are the people using it?
This means that Seo Ki Tae and Candidate Park are up to something.
I'll go to get the data from you now.
No. I'll go to Times.
They weren't aware that the app...
I, Kim Sung Guk,
- was actually malware. - will resign my candidacy...
- Not even the shrewd ones. - from this time today.
Malware?
Yes.
That's how they found out their weaknesses.
So are you saying that...
President Seo has been using that app to keep an eye on people?
It's not just that.
The actual owner of the company that developed that app...
is Park Chan Yong.
Candidate Park Chan Yong?
Then that means that promoting JC's national enterprise...
might not be as simple as a special favor.
Of course not.
If that was the case, why would he promote...
Park Chan Yong as his successor?
There's only one reason why he chose a businessman...
who didn't care about politics but specialized in security.
Power comes from information,
and if you want information in modern society,
you need technology.
But here's the thing.
What do you think will happen if Park Chan Yong...
becomes president?
Civilian surveillance?
That's right.
Thank you.
They'll know when you leave in the morning,
what you take, and where you go.
They'll know what you look up on your cellphones and what you buy.
They'll know about your relationship with your family.
Can't you take her?
They'll know if your family has any trouble.
(Myung Su Kyung, Right now?)
They'll know who's seeing whom,
and the relationships between people.
They'll have access to all your private and personal data.
The operator will be able to look into it...
whenever they want.
- Su Kyung, where are you going? - I'm a bit hungry.
What are they doing in the middle of the day?
One of Park Chan Yong's pledges...
was making a complete mobile administration app.
Regardless of the manufacturer,
if it's added as a basic app on our cellphones...
We won't be able to erase it.
It's something you would see in a novel.
A controlled society.
Do you get it now?
Do you see why I went that far to stop...
Park Chan Yong from becoming president?
Do you have evidence?
We'll do a report on it.
That won't do. How can I trust you?
You want to stop Park Chan Yong from becoming president.
Did you agree to receive something from Kim Sung Guk...
in exchange for that?
You should give up on Kim Sung Guk.
Candidate Kim said whether or not he resigns his candidacy,
and regardless of what hardships he has to face,
that I should trust.
He said if I trust and follow him...
Does he mean for you to follow him here?
Candidate Kim Sung Guk got on a plane to the US...
at 7:20pm this evening.
Due to his sudden move, the public is focusing...
You have nowhere to go and nobody to rely on anymore.
Here. Give us the envelope.
(The e-Democratic People's Party Project)
(Can follow users' location)
(Must not be implemented. It's a project that deceives the people.)
Is that your father's handwriting?
If this is too hard for you, you can stop here.
It's because I'm worried about you.
You're upset, and you're filled with thoughts.
I'm sorry. I didn't want to show it.
Can you drop me off over there?
I'd like to walk for a bit.
Did you look up what I asked you to look up?
There was a special article about KDQ LAB,
so we asked them to send it to us.
We asked them to email it to us, so let's wait.
- Okay. - But does the app they made...
really surveil people and stuff?
Yes. It's funny, isn't it?
Where's Ms. Seo?
Right. I told her to go home and rest.
She didn't look well.
Did you see if there were any bugs?
The company came by, and luckily, our office is safe.
You should all be careful just in case.
Try to keep your cellphones off.
- Okay. - Okay.
Min Ju.
Have you reflected on yourself?
You left as though you would never come back,
so I thought you would need some time.
I came because I was curious about something.
I found out some things yesterday and today...
about the politician Seo Ki Tae.
What's the reason why you're promoting a project...
you said should never be implemented...
while using another person?
I guess Lee Jin Woo keeps shaking you.
I... I got it, and I'm asking you about it.
This is none of your concern, Jung In.
Why not?
This is a crime.
You're hacking cellphones...
with an app spread by the government to get information.
Furthermore, you're trying to monitor all the citizens illegally.
I can't explain everything to you.
There's no reason I need to either.
Just know that this is for the sake of the citizens.
Are you saying that you're doing this for the sake of...
national security and to prevent terrorist attacks?
Stop trying to cover up the truth.
You want to see who will challenge you and stand against you...
and find out their weaknesses to blackmail and remove them.
If I need to, I may end up doing that if it's necessary.
But Jung In.
Do you think I would go this far as to look into someone...
and find their weakness?
I told you that this was for the sake of the people.
The opposition party's election verification...
was no exception this year.
In the hearing held this afternoon, Korea Financial Party...
No matter how much we vet someone,
whenever we set foot in a hearing,
unexpected things keep coming up.
Allegations that Prime Minister Jung Chan Seok...
participated in real estate speculation might come out.
He's not...
But it's not like there are any issues that pass the hearing.
That's why.
When you are in a position of power,
your perspective changes.
Since your perspective changes, your mind changes too.
You can't help but get greedier.
But the citizens...
deserve to have a clean politician.
That's why I'm creating a system.
But in reality, you're oppressing the press that criticizes you.
Do you think you and Candidate Park are exceptions?
What choice do we have?
Someone must get his hands dirty to get this started.
And I decided to be that guy.
It is the press's job to critique...
and keep a watchful eye on the powerful.
It's not up to some corrupt system, created by...
technology influenced by some powerful politicians.
Others may point fingers at me,
but you cannot say that.
I started this whole thing to protect you.
Even when my most trustworthy subordinates betrayed me...
and tried to harm me,
I tried to embrace them and reach a compromise with them,
so we could stay as a team to the end.
But you know what? If I trust others,
someone told me that...
you would end up dead.
What are you talking about?
Who would say something like that?
You just need to follow my lead.
Like I told you, I did all this for you.
I won't say this again.
Go back to DBS.
That will never happen.
I will neither return to DBS nor you.
And I'm doing this for you too.
Hearing what you did through other people...
and seeing other people bring you down...
- I don't want to see that. - That won't happen.
Just like how I have the power,
it will stay that way in the future too.
No.
I'll change it.
Whatever happens,
just remember that you brought all this on yourself.
It'd be better if you come to your senses before that.
(Times)
Su Kyung, you contacted everyone, right?
Yes.
For now, a bit over 20 people will be coming.
If half of them show up, we should be grateful...
Ms. Seo.
What? Are you okay?
I heard you were sick.
I'm fine.
I sorted out my thoughts and made peace.
I'm saying that...
I won't drop out anymore.
Well,
What is she talking about?
It's just between me and her.
- What can I do to help? - You speak English, right?
Can you help Min Ju? She's gathering international data.
But are you sure Young Jae can handle him by himself?
We need to find more information for tomorrow's press conference.
I'm sure it'll be fine.
He said he would stay up all night to watch him.
(Press Conference to Urge to Reveal the Truth...)
(About Illegal Surveillance, Wiretapping, and Monitoring)
All right. Assemblyman Nam is here.
This way.
I think everyone is here. So we'll start right away.
You may begin.
Hello?
Who is this?
(Ministry of Justice)
(Reform at Heart Corrects Behaviors.)
How come you never came to see me?
You've been well, right?
If I have,
do you think I'd be here without having no idea why I'm here?
You are still cranky.
Get to the point now.
President Seo Ki Tae made me a tempting offer.
As long as you don't have the press conference tomorrow...
and do what he wants you to do,
he will find a way to help us both.
I heard things have been tough for you...
and your family as well.
They already prepared everything.
You just need to get the conversation going.
Then, all of your trouble will go away.
Let's not ruin our lives.
Let's save ourselves instead.
Do you still trust that jerk, Seo Ki Tae?
That's why you will never be anything.
Trust has no place in politics.
It's all about how useful that person is.
This is our chance.
We must show him that we are still useful.
Don't you agree?
We should serve Mr. President again.
He's nervous.
What are you doing?
Start now.
I'm having this press conference today...
because I want to come clean...
about the relationship between Mr. Lee and me.
What's he doing? What relationship?
All the suspicious Times have published...
regarding Candidate Park Chan Yong and President Seo Ki Tae...
are false.
What are you doing? Have you gone mad?
The truth I can tell you right now...
is that Mr. Lee and I...
have been slandering President Seo Ki Tae...
for our personal vendetta,
fabricated false evidence,
and published defamatory articles.
What are you doing?
I have truly repented of my wrongdoings.
I'll cooperate with the questioning to the best of my abilities.
("Assemblyman Nam and Reporter Lee Fabricated Evidence to Slander Seo")
Mr. Lee, don't be blinded by your personal vendetta.
Please stop causing confusion among people.
Hey, Young Joon.
- Hey, we're done here. - Did Seo Ki Tae get to you?
Hold on. Wait.
- Is that why you're doing this? - Mr. Lee.
Don't resent me too much.
I need to survive too.
What's going on?
- Wait. - Hold on.
- What are you doing? - Hey.
- Wait. - Don't do that.
- No. - You can't take that!
- Move back. - Hey.
What are you doing?
How dare you do this?
Do you have a warrant?
Right here.
- Move back. - Step back.
You can't take this.
(Search and seizure warrant)
- Don't take that. - That's not even relevant.
(Times)
Mr. Lee.
- Wait. What is this... - Get in.
Jin Woo.
Wait. Hold on. Jin Woo.
- Jin Woo. - Wait.
Come on!
I know that you're doing your job.
But this makes no sense!
How many times must I tell you?
I'm allowed to arrest him without an arrest warrant...
for violating Public Official Election Act.
What did he do so wrong that you can arrest him without a warrant?
What did he do wrong?
Jin Woo...
Darn it.
Why are you taking all of them?
Su Kyung.
- Hello? - Now, have you come to your senses?
Were you behind this?
Which one? Seong Beom changing his story?
Or Lee Jin Woo getting arrested?
You caused both of them, Jung In.
What are you talking about?
I told you.
Whatever happens, you brought all this on yourself.
If you had simply stayed by my side,
this never would have happened.
Are you saying you did this to Times because of me?
And everything that will happen from now on as well.
So you decide for yourself.
The longer you hold out,
the harder it will be for them.
(Times)
Is the company all right?
I never even got to talk to everyone properly,
so it worries me.
I'm sorry, Mr. Lee.
What are you sorry about?
My father wasn't this kind of person in the past.
I don't know when or how he became like this.
I just don't know when the change happened.
It was because of me.
What?
I know it's hard to believe.
It was the same for me.
Both you and I...
are people who have died once before.
We saved each other's lives.
If I trust others,
someone told me that you would end up dead.
That's why President Seo changed,
because I told him about a traumatic future.
I'm sure he just did it to protect you.
Now I'm at more of a loss than ever...
about what I should do.
What don't you know? The situation is clear.
Should I tell you what you should do from now on?
Work to the end to uncover the whole truth as a reporter?
No. Go back to your father.
I'm really grateful...
for everything you've done up till now.
How can I do that?
How can I betray you like that?
Don't waste your time on this.
Just be happy with what you have and move on.
Pretend that you are blind and deaf.
Just live like a normal girl.
Watch. See how I use the truth.
You knew, didn't you?
You knew and you still asked me to save your father, didn't you?
Jung In.
Up till now, you have never...
betrayed me.
Even when I misunderstood you, and betrayed you,
you believed in me...
until the end.
I won't give up.
I will reveal everything...
my father has done from the beginning.
Please return to Times as soon as you can.
I'll be waiting for you.
We have to reveal what happened from the beginning.
I'm on my way to Times. I'll wait for you there.
You said this to me once before.
That time...
My dad...
Don't resent him too much...
Mr. Lee? What's wrong?
I can't allow that to happen to you again.
What?
Jung In, just stop everything now,
and stop coming to Times.
Why are you being like this all of a sudden? That hurts me.
It's not a place that's suitable for you,
so you should walk your own path.
I'm asking this of you.
(Visitation Room)
(Dad)
It's me, Dad.
I'll...
give up now.
But in return, can you release Jin Woo...
and the other reporters?
You made the right decision.
I'm sure it was a little shocking. I'm sorry too.
But you should remember,
and I'm saying this again,
this is all for your own good.
Gosh.
You went through a lot.
It was fine.
I tried calling Jung In, but she wouldn't pick up.
She won't be coming to us anymore.
- What? - What?
Why not?
Here you go.
My laptop got scratches everywhere.
Mr. Lee is here.
- Thank you for your hard work. - Thank you.
Welcome back.
Why do you all look so serious? There's no need for that.
Okay. Let's give him a round of applause.
- Please don't. - Welcome back.
So that's that.
Why aren't you taking care of our website?
Look at the state of the public forum.
I'm sorry.
I haven't taken a look lately.
There aren't any advertisements.
The advertisements aren't the problem.
It's all the slander and rumors people are posting.
If you leave that up, people will think it's true.
I'll take charge of it.
I'll monitor it daily,
and erase any posts that need to be censored.
Fine. Give it a shot.
Thank you.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
(Conference Room 2)
Ms. Seo is trying so hard,
volunteering to take on all those extra responsibilities.
She still has a long way to do.
We'll have to wait and see for a bit longer.
I'd like to do an in-depth analysis of candidates' welfare plans.
I've already completed the initial interviews and investigation.
Let Reporter Choi report on this.
How long are you going to do this?
- What? - Ever since I got back,
all my research and footage have been given to other reporters.
I still don't trust you completely.
If I knew this would happen, I never would've returned.
Then...
do you want to give this a shot?
(The True State of Internet Media Companies)
There are a lot of issues these days with Internet media companies.
(At the center of controversy: Internet media outlet Times)
People are criticizing it saying that it's not feasible...
- Can you do it? - When the administration changes,
the education policy keeps getting swayed.
In order to prevent potential scandal...
Prepare the VCR.
Five seconds. Standby.
This was DBS, Kim Su Hyun.
(Times)
If you've ever used the internet,
- you've clicked on... - It's open.
- a provocative title... - I'll do it.
Hey, Su Kyung. Can you do this?
to be dumbfounded that the contents of the article...
are unrelated to the title.
This is a typical harmful effect of abusing the news.
The reason why small press agencies...
use provocative titles unrelated to the content...
to promote clicks is very simple.
It's to raise the unit price of advertisements.
In the case of Times, which has been the center of controversy recently,
went beyond abusing...
and created lies to attract attention.
Yes.
Times bribed Former Assemblyman Nam Seong Beom...
- Are you ready? - to say that Candidate Park...
- and President Seo... - Let's turn up the heat today.
I set up a barricade to protect us,
- so don't worry. - Assemblyman Nam confessed,
- and they resolved the issue. - My gosh.
With the elections right around the corner,
this is very dangerous behavior.
If you create fake news or spread it like this,
what kind of charges could you face?
We must right what is wrong.
Turning a blind eye to it won't make it go away.
Rather than ignoring it, we must face it and go head-on.
That's how the world will change.
Reporter Seo Jung In?
Yes.
(Current Events Desk, Times)
There are many different charges.
Right. Please tell us.
The biggest offense...
is that they didn't ignore the truth and faced it head-on...
to let the world know.
The people that must pay for their crimes aren't them.
It is me and DBS who transformed the truth...
according to what the media guideline and those in power wanted.
If this broadcast is stopped,
it only proves that all of this is the truth.
Hey, Seo Jung In! What on earth are you doing?
Are you crazy?
Please check our homepage.
The media isn't the only thing people in power silenced.
Many politicians were forced...
to leave their posts...
before their term was over or before the elections.
This was because extremely private information was released.
Reporter Seo. What are you talking about?
The common factor among the politicians who suffered...
was that they had a specific application on their smartphones.
Through the National Assembly Access Control app,
someone was monitoring their cellphones.
The evidence has been uploaded to our homepage.
To find out more about the illegal activities I described,
you can refer to that material...
to see the specific details of the situation.
Furthermore, in order to prevent such things from happening again,
Reporter Lee Jin Woo from Times...
did an in-depth news cover on this with about 100 victims of...
the JC Telecom's Strategic Lawsuits Against Public Participation.
- Let's start now. - Who is behind this...
We can do it!
- and how did they do it? - Let's go!
You can find out right now through Times' channel.
It was warm during the day,
but as the sun sets, the wind began to pick up.
Send some guys to Times.
- What's more surprising... - Stop...
- is that six years ago... - the broadcast.
an app with the same intention was planned.
A politician in the Democratic People's Party...
who reviewed this project proposal...
seemed to have the same thought as us.
This is the memo he left.
"Must not be implemented."
"It's a project that deceives the people."
(Times)
(Must not be implemented. It's a project that deceives the people.)
But this politician...
had a completely different opinion...
on Candidate Park Chan Yong's app proposal,
which had similar content.
"Move forward with this project in secret as soon as possible."
What had happened to this politician?
- Hold on tight! - Hold tight! Don't let them pass!
- Push through them! - No!
- Move! - No!
- No! - Let go!
- You can't get through! - We won't let you!
Furthermore, this is the message...
this politician left in the guest book...
at The War Memorial of Korea during the 2015 campaign.
"I will not forget your sacrifice and your devotion."
"The Democratic People's Party presidential candidate, Seo Ki Tae."
(I will not forget your sacrifice and your devotion.)
Upon identifying the handwriting, they are 99 percent alike.
Keep going!
- No! - You can't go!
We won't let you through!
- You can't go! - We won't let you go!
- Take a photo of them! - Over here!
- You can't take a photo of this! - Take a photo of them!
Take a photo of all of them!
- My gosh! - My gosh!
- What's going on? - Oh, my.
(Daughter)
The person you have reached is not available.
The power that a public TV network has is definitely different.
Look at how fast the views are going up.
It would've been hard without Ms. Seo's help.
Jung In.
Good job, Jung In.
- Good job. - Good job.
Good job.
I was in too much of a rush.
I never should've dragged you into this.
This was my choice.
You didn't win me over.
I thought about it a lot.
I wondered why I was so caught on up this.
Is it because of my responsibility as a reporter?
Or is it because I feel guilty as his daughter?
But it turns out it was both.
That's why I can't give up. I won't.
Regardless of what you say...
and where you are,
I will do what I have to do.
What are you talking about?
I decided to wait for the right time there.
Why do you all look so serious? There's no need for that.
Okay. Let's give him a round of applause.
- Please don't. - Welcome back.
Oh, right. Mr. Lee.

This file was still saved in the copy machine.
The data was saved?
Hello?
Hello? Is this Reporter Kim Dae Hyung from Myungjoo Daily?
If you're not too busy,
- Yes, this is Times. - could we talk on the phone? Yes.
You were forced to quit Issue Global?
When was this?
In May of 2017.
- Of course. We must be certain. - I called regarding that.
Could we meet tonight?
This data is a project that the Democratic People's Party...
planned in 2014.
Many assemblymen gave their consent to it at that time, but...
Then how much can be done technologically?
It's hard, but we can restore about 80 percent of it.
Will there be any legal issues?
No. There are no legal issues.
- Leave. - Please spare us five minutes!
- Please leave! - They're so mean!
What should we do?
- Are you okay? - Yes.
Call Mr. Lee. Gosh, this is so annoying.
- Do you work here? - Excuse us.
- Excuse me. - No.
Do you work here?
It's for a good cause. Can we talk?
- Wait. - Please leave.
- Can we get in? - Wait. Just one second.
Excuse me.
Hello.
Yes.
(Park Chan Yong)
(Democratic People's Party)
- Hey. Let's go. - Guys, just go.
Su Kyung, are you sure we can do this?
- Yes. I'm sure. - Come on.
When will we finish?
Mr. Lee, get ready.
Thanks.
- Goodness. Move. - Yes.
- This is Times. - Hello.
- You're calling to give us a tip? - I see.
- Yes. - Okay.
I'm standing in front of the KDQ LAB building...
which had been in the limelight after Times' coverage...
and Seo Jung In's coverage on "Current Events Desk".
The CEO of KDQ LAB, Ko Sang Hee,
has not made any official statement regarding the information leak...
which came to light during the broadcast.
However, the real owner of KDQ LAB...
turned out to be the presidential candidate...
of the Democratic People's Party, Park Chan Yong.
This discovery has fueled suspicions of the public even more.
The public demands every application...
made by KDQ LAB be investigated.
The website of KDQ LAB had crashed due to too much traffic.
It is predicted the controversy will be heightened even more.
The real owner of the mobile application company...
in question, KDQ LAB is...
Candidate Park Chan Yong which came as a great shock.
The CEO of KDQ LAB and Candidate Park...
had not released any statements yet.
After his press conference where he withdrew his candidacy,
he did not comment on the suspicions of illegal surveillance...
of reporters and politicians and headed home right away.
President Seo Ki Tae was behind...
Candidate Park Chan Yong's illegal activities.
This afternoon, Candidate Park was questioned by the prosecutor...
and admitted to his crimes.
And in the end, President Seo Ki Tae decided to hold...
a press conference at 10am tomorrow.
President Seo holds all the keys to all these secrets.
The public is anticipating his explanation tomorrow morning.
(Calls, Dad)
(Daughter)
Dad, it's me.
Yes. I thought about calling you today.
You don't sound good.
I know that you won't forgive me.
I'm sorry. But I thought this was the right thing to do.
I wanted you to stop before you destroy yourself completely.
So you'll have a press conference tomorrow.
You don't have to worry.
This is just like a wave.
I won't be swept away by a wave. I'll stand my ground.
This will all pass.
It's okay...
for you to stop it now.
I will...
always stay by your side.
No matter what people say to me,
I will deal with it.
So just this time,
I hope you can make the right decision.
Jung In.
I may have made a mistake.
But I have never made a wrong decision.
Didn't I tell you?
Every decision I made was...
for the good of the people and our country.
Don't focus on what I did.
I hope you can try to understand why I did that.
I just need you to understand that, not the whole world.
(Seo Ki Tae)
It's all set up. It's time.
(Document for Approvals)
My respectable citizens.
The wave crashes onto a rock and disappears.
But new waves will endlessly crash into the rock.
("Telecommunication Problem Arises Due to a Fire at a Base Station")
I said I could come by myself.
You didn't have to escort me all the way here.
I can't let you go by yourself.
Be careful.
And don't skip meals.
Call me from time to time.
Okay. Fine.
Anyway, thank you for everything.
I don't think I could have gotten through this...
if I didn't have you, Jin Woo.
When I come back after I pull myself together...
Come to Times with your resume.
- Okay. Wait for me. - Okay.
- Bye. - Bye.
Thanks.
Jung In.
