EPISODE 13

What you said to me before...

You said I was destined to die.

But someone said I had to save you.

Who was it?

Come here tomorrow night at 9:00 p.m.

I'll introduce you to them.

NO PARK TEPPANYAKI

Why aren't you getting in?

I can't believe it.

He had his gang's sign on the wall in public,

but nobody figured it out.

NO PARK TEPPANYAKI

Mr. No, who was suspected of being Big Mouse, died

at approximately 2:00 p.m. today from an explosion of unknown cause.

The police suspect it was due to a gas leak

and have begun an investigation.

We'll hear from our reporter at the scene.

Park Changho is still alive.

I never ordered you to kill the lawyer.

Sir.

I'm sure he got the message.

Now that his client's gone, he has no reason

to butt into our business.

He's just as dangerous, if not more, than Big Mouse.

-It's best to nip it in the bud... -Bloodshed isn't my style.

You've done your part.

I won't forget it.

I've spoken with Mr. Choi, the Democratic People's Party leader.

Keep your hands clean.

Someone entering the major political world

shouldn't smell like a butcher.

Mr. Gong. What brings you by?

Did you hear that Big Mouse died?

-I did. -Tell the chairman I'd like to see...

What the hell?

Why are you here at this hour?

What about you?

You killed Big Mouse, didn't you?

Watch what you say.

Don't say anything foolish.

I caught Big Mouse, you freaking louse.

I do the hunting and you throw the feast.

How nice.

So? What is the elder giving you?

I heard he was going to give you the company shares.

Hey.

You're not drooling over my company, are you?

Like a dog?

That's not the path for me, so don't worry.

Just focus on your business.

I never ordered you to kill the lawyer.

Bloodshed isn't my style.

That sly old man.

He killed so many people already.

He isn't picking up.

Find out where he is.

Do you plan to eliminate Park Changho?

He knows too many of my secrets.

He'll end up taking me down while I tiptoe around Chairman Kang.

-That's right. -No way.

-Come on. -You're doing great. I love you.

Hang on.

How may I help you?

I'm here to see Waterfowl.

Waterfowl?

Why are you looking for a bird here?

-Go on. -He must have the wrong address.

I know.

You need to finish what you started.

He signed the contract. Set up a press conference.

This is the first time in my life I'm trusting someone.

Let's get this straight.

You don't trust me. You needed someone to control.

I don't bet everything on talent alone.

But I've gone all in on you.

The world that I've created. My dream.

My life.

Stop with the pressure.

It won't make me give you a discount.

Promise me one thing.

It's okay if you fail.

Just don't give up.

NAME: NO PARK GENDER: MALE

BIG MOUTH

DO NOT ENTER - POLICE LINE

What the hell?

Who are you?

I should've come to see you sooner.

I'm sorry.

What are you doing here? What's going on?

He's a killer sent by the bastards who killed our boss.

MIHO

Don't worry about your wife.

Our boys will take her somewhere safe.

It's my duty to protect you

and your wife.

Hi, Changho.

Hello?

Who are you people?

-Hey! -You can let them in.

Changho sent them.

I'm the owner here.

We'll make sure your stay here is comfortable.

The organization runs the hotel, so they'll be safe.

Was it you?

Big Mouse said someone in the organization said he had to save me.

I joined only recently.

You need to be one of the Big Three to make such a request.

Who are they?

First off, we need to go somewhere.

Where?

You'll get all the answers that you want once we're there.

Let's go.

We're a bit late.

Let's go in.

It's Big Mouse's funeral.

The people here are core members of the organization.

They initially received help from Big Mouse

and developed a symbiotic relationship since.

Park Yoongab?

He was released on bail two days ago.

Although he has a big-shot lawyer and was only charged with extortion,

he's expected not to be indicted because the witnesses won't testify.

Is Park Yoongab Number Two?

No, he's Number Three.

This goes out to my loving family.

We didn't shy away from breaking laws

or cheating in order to achieve our goals.

We eliminated obstacles in our path

using any and all means necessary.

Our methods won't work any longer

because the entire world knows now about the existence of Big Mouse.

Now,

we need someone to lead our organization in a different manner.

I plan to assign all of my authority to him.

I've thoroughly confirmed his abilities.

He is shrewder and braver

than I am.

If all of you are watching this video,

it means I've gone to a peaceful place.

I hope this video will never be played,

but if it is,

and all of you see this message,

I am no longer Big Mouse

as of this moment forth.

Park Changho is.

Trust Park Changho and follow his lead. Submit yourself to him.

This is my dying wish

and my final command.

Who filmed that video?

Nobody?

You filmed it, didn't you?

What?

You were the last one to see him.

How dare you fake a video like that to take over the organization?

That's crap. Why would I?

-You bastard. -I filmed it.

It's Big Mouse's last command.

If you refuse to comply,

please stand.

I shall comply.

Mr. Park Changho.

Decide.

Will you accept or not?

Sir.

What happened with Park Changho?

Waterfowl committed suicide.

What? Suicide?

But his body was found in the building

where No Park died.

The police say it looks like it was impulsive while he was high...

What?

Suicide?

They found a suicide note in his pocket.

What if it wasn't suicide,

but murder staged as suicide?

Are you saying Park Changho killed him?

Hey, Kim Soontae.

You're a despicable rat.

What is this, The Truman Show?

Sorry.

But I couldn't bear to watch you die

wrongfully like that.

Hey. Don't give me that crap.

You people just used me.

All I did...

was save my friend.

In other words,

there's no one to resent.

I'd be dead by now if it weren't for you,

and I became who I am now from trying to survive.

Choi Doha is the one to blame.

He dragged you into that pit of hell.

I was nervous that you'd refuse to be Big Mouse.

How could I?

Like you bastards would've let me live when I knew the organization's secrets?

This was a trap too.

As in,

you were forced to become Big Mouse against your will?

Of course. Why would I lead your dirty, organized crime ring?

Soontae.

I made Miho cry all my life.

I finally got out of jail.

I need to protect my family.

Becoming Big Mouse isn't right.

I'll pretend I didn't hear that.

You're Number Two.

Isn't there a way you can help me?

The leaders in the organization don't trust you yet.

The moment you show weakness, it'll give them justification.

If they rebel,

you'll be in greater danger.

I'll wait until tomorrow. Make up your mind by then.

Don't tell Miho.

Hey. Where have you been?

We were worried. You didn't answer your phone.

Big Mouse's people put us up in this hotel, didn't they?

They'll be protecting you from now on as well.

But why?

We need to make a decision.

Whether or not to continue with Big Mouse's request.

What do you mean? Naturally, we should stop here.

Why should we fight on his behalf when our client is gone?

Miho, aren't I right?

I think we should see it through.

What?

The patients who were dying of leukemia in the hospital.

The inmates who looked to me for help, not knowing when they'd die.

And Hyejin, who went missing while helping us.

I just can't turn my back on them.

Miho.

If we give up now, there will be more victims in the future.

The perps will live well and high on the hog.

That angers me.

Of course, it does. But how do we fight them?

You know that nothing's on our side, not even the law.

Big Mouse's people are helping us.

They're bad guys too.

Use bad guys to step all over other bad guys.

But...

Anyway,

I'm going to see it through, and that's that.

Hey. Miho. What...

Changho, talk some sense into her.

What could I say to her? Everything she said was right.

Then what, you two are saints and I'm scum?

You two are such a headache.

Did you think it through?

No Park told me once...

The fear and despair my daughter must've felt...

I'm going to return it to them a thousandfold.

Turning the world they created

into a complete hell

is law and justice...

to me.

That law and justice.

I'll leave after I establish that.

You're up against a tough opponent.

This fight may last your entire life.

I know.

What happened to No Park's daughter?

Her name was No Soojin. She was a freelance reporter.

She went missing while working on an exposé on the NR Forum.

Her skeleton was found three years after she went missing.

Her notebook was with her body.

All they found in that notebook were "Seo Jaeyoung" and "paper."

They were about to interrogate him when he was murdered.

And the 100 billion won?

We planted Peter Hong among them in order to locate Soojin,

but he took off with the money.

We tracked him and finally located the money,

but he suddenly turned himself in, so we had to silence him.

So you found the money?

No, we didn't.

Someone had already taken it.

Did he have an accomplice?

Maybe.

To be honest, we don't care about the money.

I have one more question.

When I was in the mental hospital...

The gold bar that they dug up?

We were listening.

Park Yoongab bugged Gong Jihoon's phone.

How simple.

We're efficient.

Okay, then. Let's get down to business.

-How do I control the organization? -Just give me your commands.

I manage the organization.

Let's dig into Chairman Kang and the NR Forum first.

We do have material we've gathered, but...

That won't do. Have everyone in the organization dig into them.

Include past and present background check,

assets, family, personal lives, down to Chairman Kang's dental implants.

President of NK Chemical, CEO of Woojae Construction,

CEO of SS Motors, managing director of HC Law,

chairman of Nine Semiconductors,

the second son of OC Group's owner,

the director of Gucheon Hospital,

the Mayor of Gucheon,

and the newest member, Prosecutor Choi Joongrak.

We've identified a total of 21 NR Forum members.

And their leader is, as you know...

...this bastard.

Let's not curse during a meeting.

Sorry about that.

Before we talk about the NR Forum, you need to know about this man.

Kang Sunggeun. Age 85.

The first chairman of the NR Forum and founder of NK Chemical.

He was a major general in the army.

He went into business after retiring and became very successful.

They say he was involved in various ways

in Gucheon's development with his immense wealth and connections.

But he's very secretive, so I was unable to confirm.

He's the one who turned a poor village into what Gucheon is today.

The people here call him their president for life.

The handout describes

the different businesses being run by the NR Forum members.

Road construction, apartment construction and sale,

even a large shopping complex...

They have their hands in everything that makes money.

All of the past mayors were scouted by the NR Forum like Choi Doha.

It's a typical alliance.

The rich and powerful take it all.

I looked into it separately.

Recently, the number of cancer patients

in Gucheon is at least 20 times higher.

And it's mostly blood cancer.

That's the big problem.

This is mass murder.

The only companies among them related to leukemia are...

Nine Semiconductors, NK Chemical, and nuclear power business.

It's most likely NK Chemical.

Gong Jihoon and Choi Doha are enemies,

but they colluded regarding Seo Jaeyoung...

It has to be NK Chemical.

And Chairman Kang is the only one who can control both of them at once.

Those pipes from that sinkhole last time...

I was worried, so I looked into it,

and the pipes belong to a fish farm in the area.

Why does a fish farm need such big pipes?

They illegally use underground water there.

Regardless, the chemical factory has nothing to do with it, so don't worry.

Chairman Kang holds the key to everything.

Find out if there's any way to get close to him.

Got it.

I'm sure the secret lab in Gucheon Hospital

is related to NK Chemical.

I'll ask Dr. Hong to look into it.

DIRECTOR, HYUN JUHEE

RESULT REPORT CONFIDENTIAL

TOXIC CHEMICAL LEAK CONFIDENTIAL

These deplorable snakes.

How wicked of you.

You know my eating habits, yet you brought me here.

I like Western cuisine.

You need to give in once in a while.

I've forced myself to eat many times.

What upset you this time?

Don't beat around the bush and just say it.

What do you want from me?

I read through all the secret documents

about the business.

As you should since you're the commissioner of the audit committee.

It made me so sick

that I nearly vomited.

Juhee.

I'll take it as your growing pains.

-So? -I'd like you to give up

on the chemical company.

The side effects of NF9, which you created,

have reached their limit.

It was buried for decades,

and it's been fine until now.

It'll become a heavy burden on you soon.

Korea developed while I bore that burden.

Even if my back snaps and it kills me, I have no regrets.

It has become my joy and legacy.

You must get rid of it to protect that joy and legacy...

Sir!

That's enough.

Mr. Cha.

-Yes, sir. -I'm done eating. Let's go.

Yes, sir.

You knew from before

that the elder wasn't clean.

Too many people have died.

And they're still dying.

Seo Jaeyoung...

I killed him.

What do you mean?

Why would you do that?

Do you know how I got the elder to let me marry you?

I had to agree to do anything,

no matter how vile it was.

I've never once regretted

marrying you.

GUCHEON UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL

What did you just say?

You'll get rid of...

The secret lab.

-Ma'am. -I don't want any trace of it left.

It will be done between midnight and sunrise.

It must be completed quickly without anyone seeing.

I don't care how much it costs,

so bring workers who will keep it a secret.

Have you consulted...

I'm in charge. Whom do I have to consult?

What if there's a problem later?

I understand, ma'am.

I don't know if this is right,

living in a hotel suite, getting room service, even the bodyguards.

This treatment is too lavish.

Are you saying you like it or not?

I should like it, but I don't. That's why.

DR. HONG

Hello, Dr. Hong.

We were too late.

Director Hyun Juhee got rid of the secret lab.

What do you mean, she got rid of the secret lab?

I'll take care of it.

Get moving. Work faster.

This isn't right. Is it?

I'm the lab manager. How could she get rid of it?

Calm down.

-Hey, you! You little... -Hey. Calm down.

-Calm down. -Damn it.

It took one night to get rid of the lab.

We got blood on our hands and rolled in the mud,

and worked like dogs for ten years.

You got blood on your hands and rolled in the mud,

and that cesspit was all you built?

Try saying that to the chairman.

Then we'll give you props for your drive.

Go on in.

You'll probably lose everything except the clothes on your back.

Why, you little...

No individual is above the organization.

I know you're like a granddaughter to me,

but I can't save you if you defy the organization.

Explain yourself. Why did you get rid of the secret lab?

I'll leave the hospital.

Are you saying you'll leave me?

No.

I'll build a new lab.

The public became aware of the existence of Dr. Seo's paper.

It's too dangerous to keep the secret lab...

as is.

Mm.

So, you'll do it properly?

It's impossible to do it right

without getting your hands dirty.

You're not a fisherman if you don't smell like fish.

But, please do me a favor.

What is it?

Give me the shares that you were planning to give...

to Mr. Gong.

You crazy...

Hey, Hyun Juhee.

Why do you need it?

You know

that you need power to do things like this well.

-Mr. Cha. -Yes, sir.

It's an agreement donating my shares of Woojeong Daily.

Sign it.

Mr. Chairman.

I don't have much left to live.

I've worked all my life to build my reputation.

You'd better not drag my name through the mud.

I won't, sir

Thank you, Juhee.

I've never regretted

marrying you either.

-Hello, Boss. -Hey.

Why is there no sign?

A sign?

Come now.

Really popular local restaurants don't have signs.

-Really? -Please come in, Boss.

Hey.

-Congratulations on your release. -Hello, sir.

Hi, Jerry. It's good to see you.

But why did you call me to a restaurant that didn't even open yet?

Right? I wonder why.

You want me to run this place?

You wanted a fresh start.

Don't worry about rent.

We'll bring in as much sales as you want.

As much as I want?

I'm confident in my skills with knives and fire,

but this is too big a gift.

I promised to give you a life of luxury, remember?

Choi Doha was attacked.

What do you mean?

Who was behind it?

Warden Park.

Park Yoongab recently bought a junkyard.

Hello, sir!

The Soori Gang in the area is working for him.

They're notorious for being violent.

Has he ever acted on his own like this before?

I told you.

There are people who haven't accepted you yet.

Park Yoongab is one of them.

If you can't fix this, the organization will fall apart.

Come on, man.

In here.

You missed.

Let's see.

What's this?

Wait over there.

Why are you here? Because of Choi Doha?

There's no need to worry.

The guy that was arrested won't be able to blab.

I never received a command to attack Choi Doha.

Our boss died in broad daylight. And he died a horrific death.

It's obvious who killed him,

but no one will step up and punish him.

That was why I did it, instead of the moron Park Changho.

There are people who worked their fingers to the bone for Mr. No.

It's not fair.

If he shows up out of nowhere and claims the crown,

will he automatically have authority?

Park Changho is way too weak.

He's not like us.

Big Mouse?

Tell him to dream on.

PARK CHANGHO

Kneel!

If Choi Doha had died, you would've died as well,

since you ruined my plan.

The revenge I want isn't as simple as yours.

They're vampires that suck out and live on the blood of innocent people.

You know what vampires fear the most, don't you?

Burning slowly to death in the sun.

I'm going to reveal

all the crimes they committed in the brightest place.

Setting their soul on fire

is how I get my revenge.

That's as far as I'll go.

I'm not interested in being Big Mouse, so you people do what you want afterward.

I'll leave once I'm done.

NK CHEMICAL FINALLY DEVELOPS NEW SUBSTANCE NF9

GLOBAL ATTENTION ON NF9

WILL KOREA EXPORT CHEMICAL TECHNOLOGY?

KANG SUNGGEUN RECEIVES PRESIDENTIAL AWARD

Miho.

Don't overexert yourself.

Did you find anything?

No. You?

It would be quicker to find a needle in a haystack.

Maybe our approach is too crude.

Look at this.

NK CHEMICAL'S LAB DIRECTOR CHO HAESOO COMMITS SUICIDE

Hey. This sounds fishy.

Cho Haesoo must've had family. Can you find them?

I'll find them before the library closes.

NK CHEMICAL'S LAB DIRECTOR CHO HAESOO COMMITS SUICIDE

That family was really cursed.

He had a son but he committed suicide in prison 20 years ago.

Why was he in prison?

He ran a dye factory and dumped waste illegally.

And Cho Haesoo's grandson

drowned in the Haecheon River 30 years ago.

His name was Cho Sunghyun or something.

What about other family?

His daughter-in-law immigrated to the US.

His brother-in-law is his only relative, but he is in a nursing home.

Gosh. What a sad family.

GREEN NARAE NURSING HOME

GREEN NARAE NURSING HOME

This is him.

Hello, sir.

Save him.

My grandson fell in the water.

Please save my grandson.

Save precious Doha.

He's drowning.

Sir.

He's at it again.

It'll be hard to have a real conversation with him today.

Who's Doha?

It's his grandson who drowned a long time ago in the Haecheon River.

The Haecheon River?

Save him.

Save my grandson.

Doha.

He's drowning. Save him.

Have a nice day.

I just checked. His legal guardian is Mayor Choi Doha.

I'm sure the old man said that his grandson died.

When I was a child, my father ran a dye factory.

It was true that my father secretly dumped toxic waste.

Whenever it rained for three years.

Cho Haesoo's son ran a dye factory, right?

He died in prison. He was in there for dumping waste.

We may be able to solve this puzzle after all.

He's coming. Here he is!

How do you feel?

I'm fine.

I'm sorry for causing concern.

The assailant said he was bitter about the redevelopment and attacked you.

Please, no speculations until the police finish investigating.

What are your plans after your term? There's a lot of talk about it.

Well...

I'll announce it now officially instead of holding a press conference.

I will not run for re-election in the upcoming mayoral race.

I plan to join the Democratic People's Party

and run for the National Assembly.

I will repay everyone for their support...

How many reporters can you gather?

As many as we want.

Call a press conference. Make it as grand as possible.

Why do you want a press conference?

I thought of a good way to get close to Chairman Kang.

What did you just say?

Say that again, you bastard!

You lost your shares to Hyun Juhee and got pushed aside by Choi Doha.

Am I wrong, punk?

-Get over here. -Fine, hit me.

-After I got you out of jail... -Hit me. Go ahead.

Cut it out already!

We need to put our heads together and come up with a plan!

Let go!

Yeah, what is it?

Okay.

Park Changho's on the move again.

He's holding a press conference to make a big announcement.

ATTORNEY PARK CHANGHO

Hi, Attorney Park.

To what do I owe the pleasure?

I'm holding a press conference. Want to come?

Why should I go to your press conference?

He's here!

P&K ATTORNEY PARK CHANGHO'S EMERGENCY PRESS CONFERENCE

Is today's announcement regarding Big Mouse?

We will not accept any questions about Big Mouse today.

Then what is your announcement?

I will be running for mayor

in the upcoming election as an independent.

Why are you suddenly announcing your candidacy?

Mayor Choi Doha had had a secret relationship

with a corrupt organization in the area during his term.

I'm willing to bear the cross

in order to sever those dirty ties. That is why I'm here.

What corrupt organization do you mean?

I read that Hyun Juhee became the majority shareholder of Woojeong Daily.

Choi Doha left you in the dirt.

You didn't call me all the way here to taunt me, did you?

For someone with no connections to gain that much trust from Chairman Kang...

Is it true...

that Choi Doha killed Big Mouse?

Leave if you're going to talk nonsense.

Make me mayor.

Whoever the NR Forum supported has always won.

You want to collude with me?

Chairman Kang is as powerful as he is now thanks to the past mayors.

I'll do that for you. I'll make you as powerful as he is.

Are you...

confident you can become like Choi Doha?

He plays a lot dirtier than you think.

Don't you remember?

When I first went to see you, I asked for three billion won.

You're right.

You're of the same breed.

You only live once. Might as well live in style.

Then you shouldn't have held a press conference.

I can't help you if the chairman dislikes you.

I'll take care of that myself, so set up a meeting with him for me.

Are you trying to use me?

No, right?

No.

Aren't we using each other for a win-win relationship?

Did you know

that Park Changho was going to run for mayor?

It was unexpected.

Don't worry too much about it.

Even if he is Park Changho, he won't be able to win the election.

Mr. Gong brought Park Changho.

-Send him away. -Bring him in.

He says to come in.

It's nice to meet you, sir.

I'm Park Changho.

RIDE THE WIND AND CUT THROUGH THE WATER

BIG MOUTH

BIG MOUTH

Wait a little.

I'll show the world how disgusting you truly are.

Do you remember a boy named Cho Sunghyun?

If we're after the same thing, I'd like to work with you.

You should've given me a heads-up.

I can't miss an opportunity like this.

Everything's been set.

Boss is in danger.

I'm not the traitor.

The organization betrayed me.

How it feels to lose everything...

I'm going to kill you!
