[EPISODE 8]
We've found something!
What is this?
Warden!
What's this?
Warden, we've found this inside the cell.
Look at this.
We found this in the infirmary
and we found this in your cell.
What is this?
Talk to me.
Huh?
It's…
It's something I made.
What?
I made it to play yut nori*. (A traditional Korean board game.)
Yut nori…
We play it when we're bored.
We didn't have any pieces
so I crafted these at the woodshop.
Also…
the patients play in the infirmary.
I don't think it's a problem.
Make me another third key.
It could be discovered.
So make it detachable.
Let's do that.
If what you're saying is true,
then can continue to investigate
no matter what the higher-ups say.
But you know the risks involved, right?
Kim Minjae is going to help me.
In more danger than I…
is Professor Han.
Let's get started.
The reason for this urgent live stream
is because we received new info on the Ilsim Foundation.
The foundation is supporting a cult named Ingyo
and sending them money through their foreign accounts.
[Allegations of Ilsim's Links with Cult] That's why we plan to report
the foundation to the Prosecutor's Office for breaking international currency laws.
What are they talking about?
An anonymous letter was sent to my office, the Anlim Daily
and to SNS platforms.
Is there a way to quiet things down?
We can't make it disappear completely.
[CHAIRWOMEN PARK JEONGHA]
Stop worrying the chairwoman and take care of it quietly.
Yes, sir.
That *!
[Anlim Daily] It must be *!
- Did you find it? - Not yet.
We're preparing a press release saying that we were harmed…
since it is true.
That would be difficult.
In this situation, we have to carry out an investigation.
It'll be noisy for a while.
Prosecutor.
I need you to tell me a way.
Well…
this photocopied document isn't irrefutable proof.
And no one has formally reported you to the authorities,
so I'll carry out a cursory investigation.
The important thing is to make it impossible to report.
If the press catches us carrying out boxes from the Ilsim Foundation,
they'll become silent.
But if the boxes are empty,
they'll catch our bluff, so we'll have to fill a couple of boxes.
Make it impossible to report.
Can you find out who reported it and where she is?
I already know.
- Who is it? - I think you'll be surprised.
Yu Hee.
I told you you'd be surprised.
Now do you trust me completely?
Men are such snakes.
Weren't you in love with her?
Love isn't very profitable.
I heard you were hacked.
The hacker probably gave it to Yu Hee.
I've put a tracker on Yu Hee's phone
so I'll contact you if the hacker contacts her.
I'll be leaving now.
Did you find the mole?
Yes, it's Baek Sujin.
What?
Why would she?
Lee Sejin, Baek Sujin and Lee Minji were friends.
It was Baek Sujin and Lee Minji who sent the package to Lee Sejin's parents.
What should we do?
What the hell do you think?
If they want to mess with us, we mess them up!
We might have to kill them all.
How about the doctor?
I've sent Daebeom.
Call me as soon as he has the doctor.
How about the Holy Maiden?
I told you that the only one that matters is our leader!
We can find out what
Han Seungmin is trying to do through the doctor.
How long until…
he gets out?
[ANLIM PRISON WARDEN KIM GWANGHO]
Come inside.
Here's the key to the fence near the incinerator.
Should we search the incinerator?
There's no need.
You're dismissed.
Yes, sir.
[CORRECTIONS THAT OPEN THE ROAD TO THE FUTURE]
*. You're a real *.
[ANLIM PRISON]
Who're you?
I need you to come with me.
My guys are positioned in front of your sister's place.
What will you do?
Come here!
Hold him!
The shit I had to go through because of you!
So what?
We're going to kill him anyway!
I didn't hear you.
Don't touch my sister.
That depends on you.
I'm going to ask you some questions.
Answer carefully,
unless you want to kill your sister and her unborn child.
[THE TWO OF US]
Who… who are you?
Do you know who I am?
Of course I do.
Who the hell are you?
Don't you remember Han Yeonju
whom you killed?
Of course. How could I forget?
So, you're her fiancé?
Tell me!
Who is it? Tell me who put you up to it!
Your leader…
he made you do it, right?
You fool.
You could get killed
if you continue to pursue this. Let me go!
You bastard!
Do you know what she meant to me?
How much she meant?
Tell me!
Hey! Yu Hongmin!
Hey!
[DAY OF THE MURDER]
Professor? What is this?
I'm sorry, Yu Hee.
I think this time, I'll end up hurting you.
Minjae…
I didn't mean to kill him.
I just wanted to scare him into
giving up evidence.
My Yeonju…
If only I could find her killers…
I thought that was all that mattered.
What… what…
What am I going to do?
민재야, 얼마나 됐어? Minjae, how long has it been?
How long has it been since you killed him?
I called you right afterward.
That's less than two hours.
We have to remove the memory card from the dashcam.
No… We can't.
I'll go.
I'll go to prison so please…
No! We have to stick to the plan!
What am I going to do?
I'm so sorry…
It's all right, Minjae.
I would have done it if you hadn't.
Get a hold of yourself.
Let's do what needs to be done, OK?
Hang him.
This is getting interesting.
There might be a way to help the Holy Maiden.
This could prove useful.
Mijin, go to Anlim Police Station.
Ma'am…
Would that be all right?
Of course it's all right!
It doesn't matter!
We need to see the Holy Maiden's reaction.
Also, we have the upper hand now.
We've found Baek Sujin.
What should we do with her?
What do you think?
Kill her.
I have a fantastic idea.
Tell the Holy Maiden why she was chosen.
If she still doesn't listen to you,
use Baek Sujin to cut her off from everyone.
Yes, chairwoman.
Daebeom?
Yes, ma'am!
[RESPECT FOR HUMANS, ESTABLISHMENT OF LAW AND ORDER]
How is Ingyo reacting?
It's just as you predicted.
I just met with Prosecutor Cha.
He's going to make his move now.
You have to be careful.
There's nothing more dangerous than an ally with ambiguous intentions.
How is your health?
I'm fine.
I'm protected here in the prison.
Yu Hee, you're the one in true danger out there.
Professor, did you know…
that Ingyo
had been observing me for a long time?
Yes, I was aware.
I always…
was suspicious of my dad.
But I couldn't ask him anything.
I thought the truth…
would devastate me.
That my suspicions were right.
But harboring suspicions without knowing for sure
made my imagination run wild.
From now on, I'm going to be suspicious of everyone.
As I've said before,
you're what's most precious to me.
You have to be careful.
Don't worry.
You've protected me for so long.
Now, it's my turn.
Sometimes, thousands of stats
don't matter as much as the crime scene.
When you can't solve a crime,
you have to start over again
with the first hunch you had.
That's the best way.
What are you doing here?
Who was she?
Who?
The student?
I know that she's a student.
I was surprised to see you act so fond of a woman.
Is this your first time, Seungmin?
Yes.
Wow, Seungmin!
It's really true.
No, it isn't. Let's go grab a bite.
So, what is it about her that you like so much?
"When did I fall in love with her?"
"You're so cruel to ask me that."
I bet that's what you're thinking.
Anyway congratulations. I'm happy for you.
I wanted to see you because I have a favor to ask.
Do you know
that we've known each other for 30 years,
but this is the first favor that you've asked of me?
Frankly, I've felt a little hurt.
You've saved my skin countless times. Now tell me.
What can I do for you?
One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven.
One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven.
One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven.
It's every seven seconds.
How about the distance?
About a hundred meters, give or take.
What about the thing I asked of you?
He's probably doing it as we speak.
I don't see the doctor anywhere today.
You should have escaped.
Catching you this easy
was no fun.
You're still in contact with Minji, aren't you?
What did you save her name as?
[MINJI]
[SUJIN UNNI]
Where are you, Sujin? Why are you so late?
Minji… Run!
Sujin…
It's your turn, next.
You traitor!
You're so stubborn.
Why don't you take the easy way out?
All you have to do is tell us what Han Seungmin is up to!
You bastards…
He has no intention of telling us.
Where are you, Minjae?
Han Seungmin?
Speak of the devil.
Unfortunately, Minjae can't come to the phone right now.
He's going to die soon.
Actually,
I think I'll kill him now.
No!
Don't!
You'll regret it!
Fine by me.
But you'd better get with the program.
What are you going to do if I let him live?
See? Neither Han Seungmin nor you has any intention to talk.
Do you want to talk to each other?
Let him down.
Talk.
Seungmin.
Minjae,
are you all right?
I'm all right.
You shouldn't have messed with us!
Seungmin…
I'm all right.
Just remember why we began all this.
I've prepared what you asked.
Make sure to get revenge.
What did he prepare?
How do you plan to get revenge?
You brought this on yourself!
Let's talk! Talk with me!
Don't worry. He's not dead yet.
You said you wanted to talk with me?
I'm on my way so wait for me.
You all deserve to go to hell!
What's wrong?
Are you all right?
I… I…
What's the matter?
It's… nothing…
It's nothing!
He shouldn't have ticked me off.
- We could have used him more. - It's fine.
I have one more card up my sleeve.
You have to be careful.
There's nothing more dangerous than an ally with ambiguous intentions.
Lieutenant.
Your phone's ringing.
Hello?
Who is this?
I'm off.
I'm working for Ingyo.
We have the evidence that proves
Han Seungmnin's innocence.
So?
Get in.
Welcome!
Glad to finally meet the Holy Maiden.
Holy Maiden? What's that?
The chosen one.
Would you understand it if I say that you're the vessel
that will carry the Holy One?
Is that why you've been stalking me all this time?
I never agreed to be the Holy Maiden.
It's not up to you to decide.
Our leader makes the decisions.
I wanted to kill you.
And I had plenty of opportunities.
But you're still alive because he willed it so.
Tell me, why did you bring me here?
You love Han Seungmin, don't you?
You must really want to prove his innocence.
That's why you're here, isn't it?
There's a video
that shows the murder of Yu Hongmin.
I have proof pertaining to Mayor Yu's murder.
So you knew?
We have the doctor.
Do you want him to live?
Then follow her. She'll take you to him.
You…
What are you trying to do?
You should do what you're told.
Go with her.
Kim Minjae…
Are you really in here?
Hey!
Don't do this! What do you think you're doing?
Open the door!
Just stay here for a little while.
[MIJIN]
What happened?
I've locked her up.
How are the preparations going?
We'll be finished with them by tomorrow.
I'm sure you'll do well. This isn't your first time, after all.
Take good care of her until tomorrow.
Tell her why we are doing this.
Proceed as I've instructed.
Yes, ma'am.
Just remember why we began all this.
I've prepared what you asked.
Make sure to get revenge.
Why we began…
Is my phone ringing?
Can't you keep your phone on silent?
It's so noisy.
Why are you so annoyed?
I'm sorry.
I don't know this number.
Hello? This is Detective Bae Seongpil of the Anlim Police Station.
Is this really Han Seungmin?
I recognize the voice, but it's a little unexpected.
How did you manage to call me?
What? What about Lieutenant Yu?
I understand. I'm on my way.
Excuse me.
Are you the warden's wife?
Yes, I am.
Why are you doing this to me?
You've messed with the people close to me.
I'm just paying you back in kind.
Where are you keeping my wife?
She's somewhere.
If everything works out,
I'll have her back home safe and sound.
Why do you keep
pursuing this even as you
lose those that are closest to you?
If I don't make a stand,
others will have to suffer as I did
and even die.
They'll never stop.
It won't be any different for you.
They'll discard you as soon as you
outlive your usefulness.
What is it that you want from me?
Don't request a new doctor yet…
And find out what happened to Lieutenant Yu Hee of the Anlim Police.
Please protect Lieutenant Yu.
Is that why you called me all the way here?
I'm not Lieutenant Yu's babysitter.
She's in serious danger.
Please help her.
Talk to me. What's going on?
There's a religious cult called Ingyo.
So?
Master, it won't be long until you're out.
That's why we've prepared the Holy Maiden.
Really? So I will meet her soon.
However, she is denying who she is.
But we'll see to it that she changes her mind.
You can't force her.
It's a matter of the heart.
Then we'll take care of her.
No. Don't be so hasty.
Give her one last chance.
It's what I want.
Also, there's something I need to find.
Yes, master.
Now, Lieutenant Yu is the only one that's left.
You don't have to believe me.
I'm not saying you should suspect your team members without reason.
Just please help Lieutenant Yu.
Aside from you…
there's no one in the police that I can trust.
To me, my team members are my family.
You want me to suspect them based on your words alone?
I know that you're close to your team, Detective Bae.
But Ingyo has infiltrated them.
Someone has been leaking information until recently so…
Minjae
and Lieutenant Yu are in danger. Please help them.
Are you absolutely sure about what you just said?
How sure are you? 60 percent? 80 percent?
What should I do?
Let me ask you one thing.
If what you're saying is true, shouldn't I also be a suspect?
Frankly, I'm not very fond of you, Detective Bae.
The feeling is mutual, buddy.
You're very simple-minded and naïve.
But that's why I can trust you.
You're not one to hide things.
Please help me, Detective Bae.
Am I supposed to be angry or flattered?
So, you think I'm a simpleton?
What do I do?
It's not because I trust you,
but because Lieutenant Yu is family that I'm going to help you.
What do I need to do?
Thank you.
Are you leaving?
It's been a long time.
I need you to do something.
You'd better not make any mistakes this time.
Han Seungmin…
has been talking to people on the outside.
What's going on?
I talked to that bastard on the phone!
What? What do you…
Are you keeping an eye on the inmates?
That's why I made you warden!
- I'm sorry. - What'll you do about Han Seungmin?
I'll make sure to guard the leader more closely.
That's not what I mean!
What are you going to do?
If things go wrong, all our plans could be derailed!
Are you doing your job properly?
You'd better!
If anything happens to the master, you're dead!
Do you think I'm just
another one of your dogs?
Bring Han Seungmin to the visiting room.
So, we finally meet.
Should I say I'm glad to meet you?
Where's Minjae?
Where do you think?
He's been saved
along with his sister and her unborn child.
You bastards!
I don't care what you do…
I'm never going to stop.
All people have weaknesses.
Something they want to hide
or someone they want to protect.
You have a weakness, don't you?
Isn't it true?
Yu Hee…
You aren't allowed to harm her.
So, you knew?
I'm impressed.
I wonder what we seem like
to someone as canny as yourself.
You're just a piece of shit cult
that cares only for money and kills people because of it.
If we really only care for money,
then do you think we'll choose Yu Hee
when that means we'll lose Chairman Yu's money?
Listen close.
If anything happens to Yu Hee,
I'll find you no matter where you are
and rip you all to shreds.
My, I like that.
Now, let me say just one thing before I leave.
If you keep messing with us,
I'll find everyone that you care about
and rip them all to shreds *
You're awake, Holy Maiden.
What do you think you're doing?
Where's Minjae?
We await the moment that you accept
your holy destiny.
You're all crazy!
On the day you were born, our master heard
the trumpet of angels
and realized himself to be the messiah.
And at that moment,
he heard of the birth of the Holy Maiden who would complete him.
And Yu Hongmin, who realized this destiny,
dedicated you…
himself.
Bullshit!
Uncle!
Yu Hee, let's go!
You can't.
- Move! - I won't let you!
Let's go!
[PRISONER INFORMATION]
Yu Hee.
Can't you just accept it?
This is what your father wanted.
You and Dad's beliefs are wrong.
Now that I know those beliefs have harmed
and killed countless people,
I can't just stand idly by.
Please take me to Kim Minjae
and don't commit anymore crimes.
If you log onto the cloud server using that ID, you'll find the evidence.
[DRIVER OF HIT AND RUN FOUND DEAD]
2012… I was
assigned here in 2018 so…
[GUNSAN AREA NEWSPAPERS, JULY 18TH 2008]
[MURDER OF VICTIM WITH CAMEL TATTOO]
[MURDERS IN GUNSAN AREA NEWSPAPERS]
[DRIVER OF HIT AND RUN FOUND DEAD]
[GUNSAN MURDER, JULY 18TH 2008, KIM PANHO, JANG JUNIK, UNSOLVED]
For a cursory investigation,
you've brought along quite an entourage.
I already told you that it's a show for the press.
They've taken quite a few boxes of evidence for a mere show.
Do I have to repeat myself?
People could catch our bluff
if we only take empty boxes of evidence.
That's why we took some boxes.
We'll have them returned in a couple of days.
I want them here by this time tomorrow.
OK. I understand.
They're calling for me.
I'll return everything tomorrow.
Let's go. I'll walk you there.
Step inside.
Kim Minjae is really in here, right?
Minjae?
Who are you?
- Finish up. - Yes, sir.
It's been a long time, *.
Why are you so surprised?
Cat got your tongue?
I'm growing fond of you.
Ow, that hurts!
Just give up and die!
Where's your sidekick?
You sure you're OK by yourself?
Adios!
[CRIME PUZZLE]
If things continue like this, Lieutenant Yu will die.
I think I was set up.
They were moving something.
I think it was a body.
Things have changed on the outside.
I want to make a proposition.
I want to meet your master.
I'm not ready yet.
I'll adjust as I go along.
Everything will be over.
